What happened between him and Neil?
Neil had one awkward appearance on Rogan like 3 years ago. Where Neil interrupted alot. (Because Joe was questioning him on stupid shyt tbh)
And suddenly, Neil, who's been on JRE since 2013 was public ebemy number 1. Whites turned on him quick, and questioned his intelligence and credentials regularly. He still characterized as this interrupting ego maniac to this day by Joes audience. Even though Neil had plenty of amazing appearances. They even said Neil was a DEI scientist. (Andrew schulz piled on qith this too)
But Joe still brought Neil on a few times.
Joe questioned Neil about UFO's , and Neil said he needed more evidence. He also said "why would they be interested in us". To which Joe went on a rant on why we are so interesting. And Joe clipped that and made it out as if he was "owning" neil.
However in the full clip Neil expanded and gave context, like "They are probably aware of many intelligent species" and that they may even find us to be horrific.
But that is ignored. And suddenly on the recent david grusch episode of Rogan, Joe sneak disses Neil pretty blatantly. Says hes "more of a fan of Sagan" . I dont think Neil .will be on again. But why Joe sneak dissed neil so hard? I dont know.
I think Joe is aware of his audience turning on Neil and decided to follow suit. BUT I also think whites are going crazy, and dont like the idea of Neil, a black intellectual leader. Right wingers that believe in race IQ cant bare the idea of a Neil Tyson. He needs to be brought down and questioned. Thats my theory.
Plus they prop up Elon now as their intellectual daddy. Even though if youbhear thebtwo speak on things, neil is drastically more articulate in his ideas.
