i agree with sam over dave on israel but i agree with your general point. lots of drive by's but few specifics. at least he talked to shapiro. would love to see him talk to rfk or bret

no comprendo. i'm an independant cuz i dont agree with the extremes of the parties. whats the issue with trans activism or politics?

well said

@jaarneal i think thats because, at its core, the ideology of hamas, and to an extent other countries surrounding israel, is the source of the problem. thats not to say israel has been blameless- sam has pointed this out. benny morris has been critical of israels action in the west bank. but whatever flaws israel has are dwarfed by the intentions and beliefs of its neighbors.

well said. sam think the entire IDW went nuts apparently. very odd.

sam seems to not get that there was any shenanigans going in there as it pertains to the corruption of big pharma even though he touches in bad incentives in this very podcast.
1
correct. that was a smear. good on sam for recognizing that. no wonder nobody trusts the media

odd that of all of these brilliant people that made up the IDW, only one is on the other side of two issues- trump and covid.
1
yes. the entire IDW- bret and heather, maajid, ayaan and naiil, joe, ben, douglas murray- went nuts while sam has not. odd, but technically possible

wow. thats well put. thank you. very much like the 'asymmetry of information tristan harris talks about. two different realities depending on what information you are consuming. i think that must explain sams divergence with his former idw fiends as it relates to covid/the vaccines and trump.

@perliljenberg3094 the problem is when the experts are corrupted which is what those who used to agree with sam have been saying, specifically the democratic party (as it relates to his falling out with these people over politics/trump) and big pharma (as it relates to covid and the vaccines which sam also disagrees with virtually all of his former IDW friends). they have all either lost their minds, or sam is missing something. why the chasm over these two issues? maybe three if we put russiagate in there though its part of trump. i believe i get to the truth by hearing arguments from both sides of an issue. with covid and the vaccines, i listen to what john campbell of jay battacharya or vinay prasad say in response to fauci and collins for example. "he who knows only his side of the issue knows little of that". seems to work for me

people are far more willing to speak up now. it wasnt the ones just put out of power that were silenced.

@unclesamshrugged2621 do you have an example of a professor, etc, getting canceled for criticism of israel?
1
@jaarneal sorry- hamas ran on a policy of anti corruption and de emphasized israel? what does the charter of hamas say they want to do to the jews?
1
would love to hear them talk . i'm not sure bret believes the things sam thinks he does.
