Study? You're hoping for a peer-reviewed science journal that published an article on who's offended by Joe Rogan? The original claim was that the total number of people still offended by COVID-victim Joe Rogan's comments was "none." No evidence supports that claim, so we can dismiss it outright, like you said. I've posted evidence to support mine, your defense is a thought-terminating cliché coined by a game show ho…

Oh, so you have nothing. Thanks for agreeing with me. Your points dismissed.

>The original claim was that the total number of people still offended by COVID-victim Joe Rogan's comments was "none."

Not my nor your claim. Stop shifting goal posts.

>I've posted evidence to support mine

Wrong, you've posted none such thing, as I have proven above. You still haven't supplied evidence to support your claim.

>your defense is a thought-terminating cliché coined by a game show host.

Yellow journalism predates the birth of Trump, wrong again.

I was pretty sure you wouldn't have any criticism more nuanced than "FAKE NEWS," but it's nice to see it confirmed. I provided a few links because you're apparently unable to use search engines. If you were, you'd understand that people haven't forgotten Rogan's comments.

Netflix is simply following public opinion. As far as I can tell, most Americans think that blackface is wrong. https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/02/11/about-a-thi... By comparison, most Americans think that gender is determined by your sex at birth. https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2017/11/08/transgender... Platforms like Netflix do have to draw a line somewhere. The question is just where the line sho…

I think you're misreading that first link. It seems that only 37% of adults think that blackface is never acceptable. That's actually less then the gender one you linked. Plus that first link is specifically asked about use in a Halloween costume.

I was adding "rarely acceptable" and "never acceptable" to get the sum total of "negative opinions", I think that's reasonable to summarize a poll with many options as yes-or-no. The Halloween thing isn't great, but it's all I could find....

I think that many of the censored episodes would fall under the rare times it is acceptable, though, but I suppose that is just my opinion.
