Again, somehow you are able to discern Rogan's nonsense - how do you do it?

Is this what they call a red herring?


No, it’s a straightforward question that I would be eager for you to answer. How do you manage to discern what Rogan outputs as nonsense while managing not to be polluted by it?

If it’s innate that would be interesting but it would be even better for us all if you would share your methods and then we could all benefit.

Now, now, this is HN, not Facebook.

I would counter that possibly the greatest of all philosophers, Socrates, used this very technique (that now bears his name) to uncover the flaws in someone’s thinking.

So, the question stands.
