|content=Interesting to see who paints @joerogan as dumb. His charlatans & dullards include me. Fair. But other losers include Sir Roger Penrose, @seanmcarroll, @HeatherEHeying, @BretWeinstein, @SamHarrisOrg, @sapinker, @DrDebraSoh.
So tell us: which podcasts have  the smart good people?

|content=Can’t stand the heat, Eric? Good lord you put yourself out there, you get critiqued. It does not call you a dullard, although who cares if it did.

|content=Ha! That’s not it all Kara.
But you bring up an interesting point. Most all of the amazing people I know “can’t stand the heat” (deliberate attacks, threats against family and smearing of their reputation) so they “get out of the kitchen” (retreat from public life and service).

|content=What we‘re left with is those who thrive in the heat. This is pure adverse selection with the extremophiles who prefer more heat than light deciding that the public sphere is theirs alone. Well..screw that. I don’t enjoy my stalkers and these hit pieces paint bullseyes with hate.

|content=Read it again. It’s mildly critical and has some cogent points. You don’t have to agree but it is hardly stalker or hate.

|content=Okay. I re-read it. Here is my take:
A) The piece on its own is not the issue. It’s part of a growing literature that lives to paint heterodox dissenting center-Left voices as dreaded gateways to the ‘alt-right’.
B) You’re right about ‘dullard’. It’s annoying ... but so what.

|content=C) Because the piece is “no different” than a million other MSM articles, it seeks to create a perception of truth by perseveration. That is, I introduced the IDW, so I know what it is & there isn’t a real Trump supporter in it. Yet our echo chamber repeats it into ‘truth’. Why?

|content=D) There are a lot of proximity attacks. Alex Jones belongs in one of Joe’s buckets of guests. But Roger Penrose is in a *totally* different bucket. As was Tulsi Gabbard. Or Bari Weiss. I mean the whole 🌎 goes through that studio yet the MSM fixates on “OMG! He Talked to Milo!!”

|content=@karaswisher @brianmcarney @joerogan @seanmcarroll @HeatherEHeying @BretWeinstein @SamHarrisOrg @sapinker @DrDebraSoh Agree w/ you both. I actually want some Overton window. But if I can’t even discuss the *reasonable* reasons on MSM why 1/2 the US is so pissed off that it sent a wild “can you hear me now” message in 2016, we’re going to get another larger [[Middle Finger|middle finger]] in 2020. We need to talk.

|content=E) Lastly, as Joe’s guest, I get to discuss paying women more for kin work, North Indian classical music, sexual mimicry in cephalopods, [[Gauge Theory|gauge theory]], cross-harp blues harmonica & a world of topics no one gets to touch!

|content=@jerrylieb12 Nah. Not a cop out. I’m a fan of coffee first. I’m not out to fight Kara for anyone’s amusement. I want to figure out if we even disagree first, and if so, on what issues. I have no need to nurse my grounds for a grudge with anyone.
 
Thanks Kara. Hope you’ve been well.
