Big tech control of speech is “un-American,” says Rogan

Alex Jones exclusively revealed that Joe Rogan signed an exclusivity contract for his podcast with Spotify as a way of striking back against YouTube censorship.

Joe Rogan exclusively relayed the information to Jones because Jones’ latest interview with Rogan had been a target for censorship as the interview clearly should have been #1 in the ‘Trending’ section of YouTube when it was released, but was instead blocked from ‘Trending.’

For a period of time, the interview was even blocked from being searchable.

Furthermore, Rogan saw this censorship continue to escalate with his latest interview with Elon Musk which, despite the fact that it got over 11 million views in two days, was also blocked from ‘Trending.’

In comparison, videos with only a few hundred thousand views were instead placed in the top ten.

Rogan went on to explain to Jones that YouTube is no longer YouTube of old and it’s now completely rigged in what the public is allowed to see, which is evident by all the ‘trash TV’ clickbait videos YouTube now promotes on its main page to new viewers.

The world’s most popular podcaster said it was “un-American” that a cult of tech geeks should be able to dominate, control and bully the minds of not just the United States but also the planet.

Rogan for several years thought he could use his giant platform to convince the tech monopolies that they were on a dangerous, destructive course but now realizes that it’s important to instead lead a major exodus away from oppressive systems to more open and free platforms which believe in open expression.

Jones, who has been friends with Rogan for 22 years, spoke at length with the podcast king, with Rogan telling him that he should announce to the world that the move is a direct strike against the culture of censorship, that the “gloves are off” and he is “going to war” against big tech tyranny.

The deal, suggested to be worth $100 million was announced earlier this week. Analysts are saying that it will change the face of media forever.

Rogan is also planning a move to Austin, Texas, and has some other exciting announcements coming soon that he’s not yet ready to make.

Jones, who has appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience numerous times, also announced that Rogan had specifically requested in his contract with Spotify that the Infowars host will be allowed to appear uncensored on the podcast on Spotify.

Jones said Rogan wants him as the first guest on the show when it arrives on Spotify on Sept. 1, followed by Elon Musk, who is also currently speaking out against big tech censorship and cancel culture.

The last time Jones appeared on the podcast, it was the most listened to podcast of 2019 with over 17 million views on YouTube..

It has since reached over 20 million views, which is likely a conservative estimate given YouTube’s attempts to bury the video.

As mentioned, Google was subsequently caught shadow banning the episode in an attempt to stop its popularity.

Jones said Rogan told him he is sick of being treated poorly by Google and by big tech censors in general, and the straw that broke the camel’s back was that Rogan wanted to interview doctors and experts who have differing opinions on the coronavirus to the officially sanctioned narrative, and was told by YouTube that they would not allow such content on their platform.

Rogan also told Jones that the lockdown has provided him more clarity on the situation.

Rogan has noted on his podcast that YouTube is consistently demonetising his content and removing videos. He told Jones that he sees it not only as ‘un-American’, but also ‘anti-human’.

An excited Jones descried the move by Rogan as “peak internet”.

Rogan’s podcast was downloaded 190 million times per month last year. His YouTube channel has 8.42 million subscribers, and the move away is sure to be a huge strike against big tech thought control.
