I’m a bit concerned about how much my husband has been watching his videos, but he’s a hard man to argue with. I want to understand what it is Joe Rogan is saying, but I don’t want to give the man my viewership. How/where do I get the info I can use to debate my husband?

    You can ask him to explain the episodes to you. It might help him reflect on the information and give you something to talk about.

    If he’s difficult to “debate” it might be that the format of your conversations are to blame. Sometimes arguing, especially by throwing “facts” and trying to prove someone that their views are wrong, just creates tension and pushback causing the opposite effect. There’s something called Street Epistemology that can help open the door to actual conversations and reflection, instead of antagonistic debating.

    If that fails, there’s also the option for couples therapy if you feel like you’re not communicating.

        That shit is a gateway to fascism. Unsurprised to see it repped here, in a post about gateways to fascism. Take a look at their subreddit to see the ideologies they push on full display. Really nice victim blaming that you slipped in, as well. Your husband is impossible to talk to? It’s your fault!
