"I don’t know what you’re saying but you feel very passionate about what you’re saying and if you pull one of those kids aside and ask them what’s your message and what are you trying to do I think a lot of them would have nothing to say. That is very concerning to me, I’m very concerned because they seem enthusiastic and passionate about an invisible enemy, an enemy they can’t put on a scale, they can’t tangibly describe it in a way that I can understand it completely. It just feels like the structure of things is unjust."

- Rogan

Rogan is a great interviewer and he has some outstanding guests from time to time. But he's no intellectual leader. He should very well know that "justice" is about more than just George Floyd. that was just the incident that sparked the protests and riots. there was plenty of gasoline before Floyd...

its somewhat funny that he says "i think a lot of them would have nothing to say. That is very concerning to me."

so he is concerned by his assumption. also i'm not sure what he means by invisible enemy

I think he believes "systematic racism" is too vague and/or a conspiracy

Just an aside, it kind of annoys me that people like Rogan, Stern, etc. get labeled "great interviewers" just because instead of fishing for soundbites or confrontation they ask questions and then let the person answer.

It’s striking a balance of prodding and engaging without becoming the focal point.

less worse than cops murdering unarmed blacks, because cops are the govt and immune from prosecution

Data says it exists, and is rather clear.

+1. A rare note of agreement.
