Patrick Bet-David and Mark Cuban wage Twitter war over Joe Rogan's vaccine stance - "What is preventing you from using your logic?"

Joe Rogan recently challenged vaccine scientist Peter Hotez to an open debate against anti-vax luminary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

RFK Jr. recently appeared on an episode of the famed JRE podcast where the Democratic hopeful for 2024 propagated several controversial theories like 'vaccines cause autism in children'. When vaccinologist Dr. Hotez slammed RFK's views, Rogan stepped in to propose a public debate between the two.

US industrialist Mark Cuban subsequently joined the fray, calling Joe Rogan out for 'bullying' Dr. Hotez. Cuban noted that both the UFC commentator and RFK being media personalities are bound to have an advantage over Peter Hotez in a public debate for which they will be prepped by their PR teams.

One of the main sharks of Shark Tank, Cuban also briefly mentioned his new venture Cost Plus Drugs which is radically reducing the pricing of generic drugs. Mark Cuban wrote on Twitter:

"Trying to bully Dr Hotez is ridiculous. You have producers that will prepare you and you get to control the conversation. @RobertKennedyJr also has a staff ready to prepare him, and these topics are what he talks about in every speech. You both do this on a daily basis Dr Hotez works every day to try to find ways to help people."

Way to talk in generalities Joe. Not saying there aren't a lot of fucked up things about pharma. That's why we created Costplusdrugs.com. But to ignore that the same industry has saved who knows how many lives is bullshit and you know it.
It's also disrespectful to all… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@joerogan

That would be a great suggestion if you could assure that the industry you were representing wasn’t completely captured by heartless monsters who have a history of some of the biggest criminal fines in human history because their deception has cost hundreds of thousands of people… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Joe Rogan - Dr. Peter Hotez debate: Patrick Bet-David defends UFC commentator

Another entrepreneur, Patrick Bet-David, stepped in to defend Joe Rogan after Mark Cuban's tirade against the JRE host. Bet-David answered Cuban with five major points, starting with the accusation of bullying against Rogan.

The owner of Valuetainment finds the accusations ridiculous as he believes millions of Americans were bullied into taking the COVID vaccines. Bet-David secondly brought up the values of capitalism which, according to him can be protected with 'freedom'.

Bet-David believes Mark Cuban is well aware of the same but hesitant to share his values. He wrote on Twitter:

"What is preventing you from using your logic, experience and common sense (that YOU have a ton of) to share that POV with YOUR followers?"

Bet David went on slam Cuban for 'protecting' Dr. Peter Hotez from a debate, which according to him is the American way to getting closer to the truth. Lastly, he went on to take a dig at Cuban for promoting his company Cost Plus Drugs.
