Rogan keeps on talking to the masses about DMT and its powerful effects. Because of this it is becoming more widely known, therefore it will be more likely to get criticized by the media. Tell me what you think.

Everybody needs something to talk about - i can only hope that his heart is in the right place when he's talking about DMT. To me, he seems to be honest and passionate about it. More people are aware of this medicine than ever before, which means individually, we have more responsibility of respecting spice and lending a helping hand to who so ever wishes to dwell in this world.

DMT already has a bad name. Joe Rogan can't hurt it.
I learned about DMT from Joe. I think its cool he talks so openly about it. It creates a dialog.

Right now awareness is probably more important than image. All Posts are fiction and only exist to entertain

It seems to me that he often lets his exuberance take over, and many people get the wrong idea regarding it. I feel that his presentation would appeal mostly to the group who enjoy putting videos of themselves on salvia online - but that could just be my own prejudice there.

I think Joe Rogan is a useful tool at at attracting those to the molecule who never would have found it. About four years ago, Joe Rogan introduced me to the idea of DMT, and while I currently hold few common viewpoints with him on the molecule, I think it may only be because of him that I got into the whole thing (possibly psychedelics overall) because of Joe.

I like Joe. I can't really fault him for saying things that aren't exactly accurate... He admits that he's only done DMT a few times (2 or 3?) and that was all he needed. IMO, he helps get people interested in the spice, which is a good thing. Anything that pushes people to explore and do research is a good thing, IMO. I'm also a UFC fan...and he knows a hell of a lot about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

while I don't consider him anymore qualified to give talks on DMT than, say, Andy Milanakis, he has raised some mainstream awareness on the subject. whether that's a good thing or a bad thing, I don't know. What I do know is his little interviews presented Strassman theories as some sort of psychedelic law, and now his followers shun any naysayers, even if contradictory evidence is proposed. the science doesn't matter to them, because Joe Rogan is right, and you're just a moron.

my bro tried changa in OZ 5 years back and tried to explain it to me but it wasnt till i heard Joe Rogan's take about it that i really became interested. for me, this is a good thing I'd agree that Strassmans theory are not presented as theories, and its not until i reached the nexus that i have heard much debate about it. Im interested to find out more of the contrary evidence... howvever, the strassman theories do warm mi heart a little.

If it weren't for his stand up comedy, I would have never known about spice. At first I thought he was kind of a douche, then I thought his comedy was hilarious and his outlook on life made sense in a way. Then I found out about DMT through him several years ago.
His video surely made me and many others quick to jump to some DMT/dreaming/pineal/life & death conclusions, which are obviously debatable or inconclusive.
His youtube videos and hosting The Spirit Molecule documentary are surely grabbing people's attention. I like Joe, and it was him that sorta introduced me to DMT, but the publicity he brings might be too much attention.
DMT is still fairly a secret to the general public. It's not even listed on the DEA's website or Partnership for Drug Free Americas website. I surely don't ever think it will be legalized. Even with supposed little to no long term side effects, the idea is just too crazy for the average person to fathom without extensive education. Too many people would use it as a party drug, and then the news would be flooded w/ people going crazy from it.

DMTripper is a fictional character therefore everything he says here must be fiction. I mean, who really believes there is such a place as Hyperspace!!

We here are a minority. Joe ((and Strassman to a lesser extent)) is the ONLY one of us who has the ability to go public. Fearlessly.., and with a microphone. He doesn't do this for himself, he does this for all of us. He is our spokesperson. Honor the Man. He is BRINGING IT. Thank You Joe Thank You Joe Thank You Joe "This aint for the underground this here is for the Sun". Honor The Game And It Will Honor You Back

maybe his brother just doesn't have a way with words. Joe Rogan talks about DMT with so much passion, it's hard not to listen to him. also listening =/= trust
