This is an unhinged take. Jordan Peterson and Lex Fridman are clearly intellectuals. Rogan is debatable - he’s more entertainer but he is also certainly more intellectual than those who are normally given that label, because he listens to a diverse set of views, and has more balanced and mature opinions on many topics as a result. The bigger issue isn’t Rogan being labeled that way - it’s all the “traditional” intellectuals who don’t deserve that label or the authority that goes with it.
