Rogan talking about vaccines causing autism, faked moon landings, 911 conspiracies and whatever other nonsense falls out of his empty head gives it enough of a whiff of respectability that other people give credence to this rubbish. He's dangerous and I find his popularity among the mostly very smart HN community completely baffling. David Icke isn't given the same pass, so why is Rogan?

Those sound like topics worthy of debate. Hopefully you take advantage of the opportunity to provide counterpoints to Rogan's "nonsense" when it presents itself.
What's "dangerous" is the intolerance of thought that permeates society right now. We seem to have lost the ability to listen and then respond.
I always thought Joe Rogan might be more of an Art Bell-type personality. Personality, not authority.
