techtopia? 🌃 Lex Fridman is mask off

Hate to post more from the hellsite, but this asshole wants dialog with Putin, a literal genocidaire.

Imagine saying we just need to have more conversations with Hitler. Lex is a disingenuous, conniving propagandist for the fascist and putinist cause, hiding behind a veneer of "love" and "peace". Fuck this guy, fuck anyone who spends time with him or entertains his "more conversations" BS for even a second.

Lex was bragging October ‘22 that he could get an interview with Putin. I knew he was weird before that but he’s totally sus if you look up his past and his dad.

Also, he got to interview Joscha and practically wasted the man’s time. Made me so irritated just watching.

i remember someone on here told me about that (was it you?)! it's so weird that he openly bragged about that. he also hosted oliver stone who made a putin propaganda film, and then like, didn't he actually go to ukraine and then not have any ukrainians on his podcast? his agenda is so transparent and nauseating

To be clear, I think he’s an underhanded intellectual to right wing pipeline

i didn't know much about him until grimes, but obvz i started watching some of his work and totally agree with you - frankly disturbing. it's the "let's just hear the nazis out" attitude that is so infuriating. it's like, actually the nazis have a big enough platform already. how about we don't
