Mark Cuban challenges Joe Rogan about vaccines and healthcare

Debating on social media is like having a lunchroom argument with a classmate ... except everything you say is recorded and catalogued and available for recall. 

And all the commentary from the sideline is also captured and endlessly debated.

DON'T MISS: Mark Cuban calls out Elon Musk on Twitter

About two months ago Mark Cuban and Joe Rogan got into a spat on Twitter, now known as X, because Rogan was advocating for pro-vaccine medical personality Dr. Peter Hotez to go on his show and debate anti-vaccine U.S. presidential candidate John F. Kennedy Jr. 

Cuban chimed in with a tweet accusing Rogan of trying to bully the doctor (who has previously appeared on Rogan's podcast) while also advertising his Cost Plus Drugs cheap prescriptions business. 

Way to talk in generalities Joe. Not saying there aren't a lot of fucked up things about pharma. That's why we created https://t.co/jYSNkP7amr. 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… https://t.co/bUawoBgbH6— Mark Cuban (@mcuban) June 18, 2023

On Tuesday, Cuban was back responding to a clip of Joe Rogan talking to a guest about his interactions with Cuban. 

"I don't think he knows what he's talking about. I don't think he knows what he's talking about about the side effects," Rogan said on his podcast.

"I don't think he knows what he's talking about with the dangers of myocarditis; the idea that it's nothing and it goes away quickly. It's not true. I don't think he's accurate and I don't think he's right, and I think he has a vested interest in his position. He's had that position for a long time -- the position of mandating vaccines for his players."

Cuban's response was in the form of a question.

Ok @joerogan and @ravarora1 let me ask you a question. Which health care insurance company, anywhere in the world, has raised their rates for people who have been vaccinated?

Which has raised their rates for parents of vaccinated, teen boys?

Which sports organizations now… https://t.co/JA9XV2nljt— Mark Cuban (@mcuban) August 8, 2023
