Yeah, I was trying to figure out the argument. She brings up podcasts being treated as journalism by millions when it’s not (a good point), but PP in fact did not take the interview, and her complaint ends up being:

But whatever the reason for not doing the interview, I think it was a good thing that he didn't do it. If only because selfishly having to sit through that Jordan Peterson interview with Pierre Polyev really tested my sanity. And I think one with Rogan might genuinely break it.

Meanwhile, Joe Rogan and whoever he’s with (IDK I don’t watch this podcast) don’t say much of anything? Just comparisons to Kamala and kinda dumb complaints. I don’t get why people would watch that, but I don’t see how they dove in to Canadian politics at all.

Then it’s talk of right-wing ostensibly pro Canada Twitter accounts being Trump shills. Well, duh, they’re farming the algorithm. Twitter will bury them (and their influencer income) if they bash Trump.

Then the referendum thing, which i don’t know enough about to comment on… but seems topical I guess.
