Ep 77 Pt 2 - Decoding the Decoders w Chris Kavanagh

Polite Conversations

In part 2 of this conversation we get into more specific concerns - issues about responsible framing, softballing, etc. At what point do we recognize and consciously not contribute to maintaining the perception of “reasonable intellectual” for someone as far gone (imo) as Harris? At what point has he crossed the line into being as embarrassing as say … Bret Weinstein? We explore all these questions and more. —— If you enjoy the show pls consider supporting via patreon.com/nicemangos and by leaving an Apple Podcasts or Spotify review.
