I think “prick” is a bit far. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten any malice or ill-intent from him. He’s just a very blunt speaker who may not immediately recognize the social repercussions of what he’s saying in the moment. I think he recognizes this and constantly apologizes for the way he speaks.
Not a fan of Joe Rogan but I did watch clips of his interview with Neil and prick definitely seemed like an appropriate term for him after that. Watch the clips if you don’t believe me.
I watched them. There’s nothing there that is aggressive at all. He very clearly laid out and explained the issues with the ideas put forth by the ideas in that paper, and explicitly said why he did it that way (that’s how a colleague in science would note things), and further said if you’re to be taken seriously, you should expect such feedback from peers who are reviewing your work. That’s quite accurate.
Hmm, so you’re now arguing in bad faith, that took a turn. I’m officially out as you seem to think it’s OK to be rude and condescend if you’re a “certified genius”. I must be speaking with a certified genius here, I had no idea.
He’s also just a bit of a prick regardless. There are so many more entertaining science personalities that don’t act pompous as fuck.

he has had some dickish moments but when you’re constantly talking publicly that’s pretty inevitable unless you’re a saint.

What was your take on this that sounds negative?
He interrupted Joe constantly and came off as arrogant, condescending and abrasive.

Oh no…Joe Rogan gets interrupted by a certified genius in between idiotic thoughts.

Yes, just because I’m speaking negatively of a black man I must be racist…. Fuck off. I made no comment on his race.
