fishysnake1 he's usually pretty good about grilling anyone that sits in front of him, imho. often unfairly but i guess it serves its purpose in discourse.

fishysnake1 i think he's pretty good at attacking everyone that sits in front of him. he's pretty tough on colonialism and america's war machine in most cases i've seen.

He's abrasive, yes. That's what "head to head" means - no pussyfooting around, get straight to points of contention and hash them out. That's the function of this program.

@fishysnake1 I've seen Mehdi tons of times do precisely that. The Oxford debates for example, Donald Trump propaganda as another. He constantly points out the lies and abuses of power in the west, but not with this guest who was there to discuss his own views.

@Tian Wong lol thanks but hearing it first hand is what's valuable in this context. The insane ideas themselves aren't new, but how they believe and present twisted spin logic is important
