You serious?  You comment on me everywhere - must be my propensity to remind you luvvies that 93% of women killings in the NT are by intimate partners and family and known to people in that one minority community, and that discussion of such things is no more 'racist' than any other reality.

You'll be right - stick around long enough and you'll learn this reality thing... I know how hard it is... interesting that finally one state or territory finally had the balls to tell the truth .... what do you think should be done about it?  I mean - other than accusing me of having some dark veiled conspiracy theory of yours that my discussion of the REAL issues somehow is a cover for my real agenda which I never had....

Damn - FreediverGroup IS playing up today.

a slight degree of despondency or boredom from Rogan - although he is remarkably skilled at not making it too obvious.

Well, Rogan proved the point in another way with his latest interviewee: Julian Lennon.

Rogan quipped that talking to 'ordinary' people bores him, and after so many interviews, he finds it hard to stay focused on what they're saying.

It seemed appropriate with Julian Lennon.

He's never managed to escape his father's gargantuan shadow, which makes the telling of his life seem... well... boring by comparison.

And when he tries to work within the shadow, he's blocked out by the world's refusal to have the John Lennon myth 'sullied' by an 'ungrateful' or 'less talented' son.

I clearly hit a nerve with that one.

If you've rejected my interpretation of the results, why would you suggest the majority of his most popular episodes all focus on conspiracy theories and those pushing them?




I never suggested anything of the sort. Meister Icky did, perhaps.
Not me.

if it's not because they're easy to digest and make the listener feel good about themselves for being able to understand them or have their beliefs validated for once in their lives, then why do you propose they're so popular?



I told you already. He's not pompous, morally preening, pretentious and scaly like the ABC, Granuiad, you Mothra, Bbwian at al. He let's his guests speak for themselves. He doesnt try to catch them out or expects them to toe any particular pc line.



Quote:
If you’re suggesting my observations and opinions are borrowed wholesale, then let me commend you on your staggering projection. It’s rich coming from someone who parrots the same uncredited sources time and again, yet conveniently declines to cite them here.

If you’re so certain I’ve lifted my arguments, surely you’ve uncovered the original source you claim I’ve plagiarised. So, by all means, share it with the rest of us, unless, of course, your goal is merely to dismiss my points without engaging with them.


ABC chairman Williars is a prominent member of your echo chamber


Quote:
In doing so, you reveal nothing except your inability to argue in good faith, relying instead on projection to deflect from your own intellectual laziness.


Nonsense.
You seem to think that arguing in good faith means going along with your argument. It is not.

Although Rogan made Lennon comfortable enough to get through an interview sounding a bit above average, the heavy hangover from John Lennon's treatment of his son leaches through.

While he was still with Cynthia Lennon, John showed almost no paternal interest in Julian.

When they divorced, largely goaded on by Yoko Ono, John begrudged having to provide for Julian for anything, denying him and his mother even financial support.

His will left almost nothing to Julian, with everything going to Ono and to his second son, Sean. It took the threat of a lawsuit by Julian for Ono to negotiate a settlement with him.

Far from being a 'high priest' of love and peace, John Lennon was a mean-spirited mother's boy.

Who was famous and a great song writer, unlike you. Sounds like jealousy to me.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Cheesy
It isn't possible to be jealous of someone who married Yoko Ono.
