Joe Rogan Podcast Episode Pulled for Vaccine Misinformation
by EG
YouTube has pulled an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast because of the episode's violation of the platform's guidelines. The problem seems to be vaccine misinformation espoused by the episode's guest, Dr. Robert Malone. Malone has already been the subject of criticism for promoting unsupported COVID remedies and spreading misinformation about the current vaccines. And he also compared the US government's vaccination efforts to Nazism. Read on for details.

What a load of Maloney.
YouTube has removed a New Year’s Eve episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” featuring Dr. Robert Malone, a vaccine scientist notorious for making controversial statements regarding the COVID-19 jab.
The episode, No. 1757, had been shared to YouTube by a third party as Joe Rogan’s Spotify deal prevents him from posting entire shows to the platform.
In the inflammatory podcast episode, which YouTube deleted mere hours after it appeared, Malone compared the current US public health climate to Germany in the 1920s and 1930s, when the Nazis rose to power, the Independent reported.
Malone said the uprising was the result of “free floating anxiety,” which could only be quelled by a leader with a singular message.
“It was from, basically, European intellectual inquiry into what the heck happened in Germany in the ’20s and ’30s,” argued the 62-year-old physician, who claims he invented the mRNA technology widely used in the COVID-19 vaccines. “Very intelligent, highly educated population, and they went barking mad.”
Malone chalked up this so-called phenomenon to “mass formation psychosis,” claiming: “When you have a society that has become decoupled from each other, and has free floating anxiety in a sense that things don’t make sense.”
“We can’t understand it,” he added. “And then their attention gets focused by a leader or series of events on one small point, just like hypnosis. They literally become hypnotized and can be led anywhere.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Malone reportedly made various unfounded statements regarding the coronavirus vaccine, Forbes reported.
“Our government is out of control on this and they are lawless,” the rogue scientist insisted. “They completely disregard bioethics, they completely disregard the federal common rule, they have broken all the rules that I know of that I’ve been trained on for years and years. These mandates of an experimental vaccine are explicitly illegal.”
Previously, he had claimed that the Moderna and Pfizer shots would exacerbate infections — a statement that went against the prevailing research regarding vaccines, the Atlantic reported.
YouTube has yet to give a definitive reason for why they axed the episode. However, a link to the deleted video shows that it was removed for “violating” the platform’s “community guidelines,” suggesting that misinformation was the cause.
