"Some things are more important than your ego or idealism" ... like ... let's say ... no straw men?

Well ... Dave ... that's all very well as long as this activity is not named as a "group" ... as soon as you name it and make it a "group", you create the problem of setting boundaries (as Bari Weiss also says). There will always be disagreement about who is beyond the pale. For instance... you might think Dennis Prager is a part of "the Intellectual Dark Web" ... I on the other hand would say there more thought of that would make the whole thing a farce.

... and PS: I have to reiterate that my issue with the Rubin Report is not that you go on Alex Jones. It's also not who you invite on in it self. It's that you started to advertise this as all about "reason and logic", but then totally abandoned it. I just watched Joe Rogan having Steven Tyler on. I couldn't dream of criticizing Rogan for this, because 1) He didn't advertise his show as not promoting that kind of lunacy and 2) He actually took his insane conspiracy theories down rather uncompromisingly. You on the other hand just end up giving a platform to a lot on everything-but "reason" based people.
