Most public figures arent allowed to speak the truth. His unreasonable positions are not his.

I have no clue who Sam Harris is nor do I care. Yet threads such as this serve a very useful purpose as they attract neocons like flies to a turd.
Without even reading through all 4+ pages of this thread, I guaran-damn-tee you that the Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld jock-sniffers will be out in full force in this thread. These types of “conservatives” aren’t opposed in theory to the Deep State, they simply want their side in control.

His response is worse. The thing I've always appreciated about Harris was his clarity in both thinking and speech. To suggest he wasn't "speaking very clearly" is fricking nonsense.
What he basically says is it would be bad if the government rigs an election, but it’s perfectly acceptable for the media to do it. He does not come across well in that.

he is ok with dirty tricks as long as they are for his guy

Nice quote for you, Sam. You fricked up, but I truly do appreciate the honesty. Sam’s not a liar and I thank you for being so up front with us.

To be slightly fair, I think he knows if Trump takes back power and the government can be righteous to take down an opponent, he clearly sees where that could lead. I think he’s bargaining with himself convincing himself he wouldn’t have a major problem if say Fox News buried a true story like Big Tech did Hunter Biden so long as someone was reporting on it.

On the podcast, I was speaking narrowly about the wisdom and propriety of ignoring the Hunter Biden laptop story until after the election.
The problem, Sam, is that every ounce of Trumps dirty laundry was aired to the American people. If you don't counter that level of scrutiny you're not operating within a true republic.
Its akin to a doctor telling a patient all the symptoms a particular medicine might cure while actively hiding the potential side effects.
It's not the doctor's place to decide what's best for the patient. He's suppose to lay all the information out in front of the patient and let them decide.
Likewise, it's not your job to decide what the voters should consider before voting.
This is literally ethics 101...

The fact is Sam is very much hyper aware if that story got the attention it deserved that Trump would still be President. He knows this and is bargaining with himself. He not one of those idiots who says things accidentally. Everything Sam Harris says has purpose in it. He’s not some rambling idiot who will often use hyperbole to make his point.

Robbing someone of their vote because you think you know better is pretty fricking bad.

I know. That's why I compared him to a dishonest doctor hiding information about a certain medication from a patient because the doctor has decided he knows what's best for his patient and doesn't trust them to make the right decision.
It's very unethical.

Sure. Doing it 81+ million times is also pretty fricking bad.

Not how I would describe him. He loses his shite over theism and Trump and throws rationality out the window.

I don’t think he’s a liar though. I do think is very honest even if he can get batshit sometimes.

Stopped reading right there.
This interview proves that not only is he stupid, but that he's a Marxist coward. He would never say such things while on stage with, say, Jordan Peterson because he knows he'd get clowned into oblivion.
frick this faux-intellectual piece of shite.

This dude should be locked up.

Seriously. This is so out there, throw a straight jacket on him and lock him in an asylum. I mean, I get they have to outdo each other, but this guy went full retard, on meth.

Sam Harris admits the election was stolen from Trump by Democrats
No he didn’t. He admitted that there was a conspiracy among the MSM and social media to cover up the Hunter Biden laptop story. That’s yellow journalism, but it’s definitely NOT stealing the election.
I’m not saying the election was not stolen, because I think it might have been, but Sam Harris didn’t admit to that in your link.
