So Harris is literally a racist?

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

He’s like a split personality. On most other subject he’s all fact and study based data - then someone mentions god and he goes bat shit crazy. Really mental. Oh and lobsters.

He was on HardTalk the other night. Seemed to have a rote learning like answer for each question and struggled to expand beyond that.

 

Also seems quite ratty and unpleasant.

[Jairzinho]

Ratty, unpleasant, thick, islamophobic, racist, boring cunt.

 

Apart from that though.

[cloggypop]

Harsh on rico that. He's occasionally funny.

[setreal]

Harsh on rico

 

Which part?

[cloggypop]

I'm taking the 5th

I think David Rubin would be offended if you call him a leftie. His whole schtick is about mocking the left..

He’s a liberal (classical or otherwise), that’s to the left of the alt-right - no?

Fuck me if only he could do TEFL in Spain, what a high bar to achieve.

A compelling debate between Ezra Klein of Vox and one of the IDW leaders, Sam Harris, on the controversial topic of race and intelligence.

Quick background: Sam Harris is a supporter of Charles Murray’s Bell Curve, which argues that there’s an unbridgeable gap in intelligence between different races in the US (and the world) and the government should stop all programs to redress racial inequality. Ezra Klein called him out on it. They went back and forth on Twitter, and this was meant to be their ‘showdown’, for lack of better a word.

It was awful, really awful. Did you listen to it? Klein is simply dishonest.

That’s one take on it, yes.

[aRdja]

He’s not left, as you claimed him to be. He even claimed that he sees Trumps politics as ‘centre-ground’. Happy for the mod to change the title thread to “alt-right and the IDW” to no longer have this frankly boring convo.

Imagine your perception being so skewed that you think these fucking dorks are on the left

‘Most of the people in that article are on the left, at most liberal. Including the gay married bloke’

[Rico1304]

Disingenuous- I said left at most liberal didn’t I? Fancy quote mining in a thread about the alt-right. Dick.

Jesus, is the insult really necessary Rico? Feel free to disagree with my posts but please refrain from unprovoked personal attacks. Your beef isn’t with me.

Repped for the insult "jumped up dungaree wearing wank puffin."

What the fuck am I supposed to infer from “most of the people in that article are on the left”. Honestly, this is just mindblowingly stupid.

[Jose Jones]

Someone insulted his husband. No wonder Rico is a little tetchy.

[aRdja]

Who has admin access to edit thread titles here other than Dave?

I think it is mate, because you deliberately clipped my quote. That’s dickhead behaviour.

[Jose Jones]

“Dungaree wearing wank puffin” is pretty good though. Kudos for that, rico.

So now you’re adding liberal? Ta.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

I think it came across as quite contrived, faux, too try hard ranting.

 

Rico. You're better than that. Just.
