It was tough to understand, honestly, but his conversation trended into his opinion on Trump if I'm not mistaken.

It ended up being two. Where Rubin apologized for getting owned.

Is that your summary of the Zizek video? I'm just unclear.

I don't know, it 's tough to understand him. Did he say there would be no Democratic Socialists if not for Donald Trump?

If anyone has ever watched more than a couple of Rubin videos they'd see that he often wrestles with what his role actually should be. I know the biggest criticism of him is that he doesn't push back on things or attack people. As an interviewer there are some things one should pushback and probe, but he believes its not his place to steer the conversation toward some ideological outcome or play gotcha. He believes his role is to facilitate a conversation, give people space to articulate in their own words what they believe, and allow the listener/viewer to make their own informed decision.

And let's face it Memph, Dave Rubin is a smart guy, but compared to some of the intellectuals he has on, sometimes simply facilitating the conversation is the best he can do. That's not a knock on him.

I opened this expecting to see a video of Rubin rebuttals that would have least been somewhat close to the 11 minute video. Perhaps even half Rubin commentary/ half TYT response. I think there may be be roughly 15-20 seconds of Rubin material. From the two sentences Rubin mentioned, was there something specific you disagreed with?

I don’t have much bandwidth to spare on videos. I researched him before I wasted data on him. He sounds like another “these social justice warriors bringing down the white man and masculinity!!!” types.

Hard pass.

I find it amazing that in the numerous posts in this and the Peterson thread, at virtually no time has there been any actual discussion of stated concepts and principles, just the typical mindless attempts at character assassination from the leftists.

They don't have the guts to actually address and discuss particular issues, just whine and cry like children. Also like children, the best procedure is just to ignore them until they grow up, a process some never achieve. Sad, but, like them, totally inconsequential.

Some people say and do things that make them worthy of being dismissed. Take you for example.

I didn't know the majority of voters were all on Media Matters, Vox and HuffPo. Another political hack.
