I appreciate the way Joe Rogan has been marshaling the extremists on the left and the right and calling them both out on their bullshit. Essentially he is my referee in this intellectual blood sport. A referee who investigates the fringe and is willing to grapple with ideological tribalism in its many guises. He generally makes a good call, but no referee is perfect and he is willing to accept his mistakes (which is better than most referees, I would say). All Hail Joe! He is truly a good fellow.

Love this. And I love Joe as well. Just as in most sports, the referee is often a guy (or however you identify smirk) who was just fell short of being the athlete. Even though I wouldn't argue with anyone claiming that Joe is an intellectual, he seems to me to be just short of that mark, which in turn makes him an excellent referee. And that is not a knock on Rogan. Far from it. I also fall short of that mark and still have as much admiration for Joe as I do Jordan or Sam, etc.
