Remember, Lex Fridman platformed Jared Kushner and Tucker Carlson in front of his millions of listeners, allowing them them to further propagate their right wing propaganda. Lex is a fucking hack, and a wolf in sheep's clothing.

He also platformed a Palestinian in a powerful interview. We don't need to be so afraid of words. People can think for themselves.

I'm not afraid of words. I am expressing my own displeasure with Lex Fridman by using words right now. If you don't agree with my opinion then that is your prerogative, but what I said was factually accurate. You won't find that same factual accuracy in either of those interviews, and that is the fucking problem.

[-] juicy@lemmy.today 0 points 5 months ago

An interview isn't meant to be factual like a news report. The whole point is to hear someone's perspective. Friedman's project is to expose his listeners to a broad spectrum of views. That's an honorable goal.

I see, you are one of those people who's mind is so open, your brain has fallen out. Makes perfect sense now.
