Discouraging vaccination with inaccurate info & white people using the n-word both bother many people.
You can think they're wrong to be bothered, or dislike how they're expressing it. But you can stop searching for a hidden alternate motive. Those things really do bother people.

I don’t like the term vaccine skeptics. We already had a term for these people: assholes.

Rogan comes out and apologizes for bad behavior and pledges to do better, acknowledged that - gulp - he has done some things he regrets. Telling that that seems alarming to many of his defenders. https://t.co/B0RUbvrfwn

Didn’t you work to make a few Oberlin students mildly criticizing a cafeteria dish into a national story two weeks after the San Bernardino attack, when the US was fighting in Afghanistan, Russia intervened in Syria, unemployment was rising, climate change was getting worse, etc? https://t.co/cJ5Q2nFFf8

On the scale of tsuris suffered by the Jews over the past… kind of forever, no it’s not *that* awful. The Nazis, Babylonians, and Romans kind of fill the top billion spots.

But it is shitty and I have little sympathy for a dude getting matzos on his arm when he wanted strength. https://t.co/OcgVGcAVY9

Unless they’re demanding the government silence him, I have a solution to your tearing problem:

Realize that free speech includes freedom to not host some content and the freedom to call on others to not host that content.

That is the “more speech” response to “bad speech” https://t.co/yHS1xHy7UY

It’s hard to keep hearing Rogan defenders smear anyone who dared criticize him. Some of the stuff he did was crap, something he’s finally admitting. Maybe it’s time for his defenders to admit that they defended too much of that crap, not that this was solely about free speech. https://t.co/7kxUj5LHnO
