Sam Harris has to have the biggest case of TDS I’ve seen. He point blank admits that Trump’s policies are good, but just him as a character is unacceptable for the Presidency and has to be stopped by any practical means. He said that the only sane liberals left are himself, Bill Maher, and Andrew Sullivan. While yes they are sane and clearly see what is happening, they just can’t let Trump’s character out of their head. At least Bill Maher’s TDS makes sense because Trump sued him over a joke, but doesn’t make sense for Harris and Sullivan save for being educated pricks who look down on used car salesmen.

Remember when he said he heard the tape of Trump dropping an N bomb? I do.

Harris has already admitted he can't be trusted with anything he says or does regarding Trump. Why start now?
He said he would literally cover up the murder of children if it meant denying OMB. Lying about Trump is a worthy means to an end.

Screw these bastards.

Sam Harris has become a caricature of himself. All of the qualities he thinks he values in his analysis of the world around him are dropped in an instant on this topic.

Tim Pool did this response to Harris:
The thing is Sam is not evil and he probably agrees with 80% of what this board says. He’s just out of control on his TDS.

I want to know clinically what Trump has done to the left. TDS went from a meme to a mental health epidemic.
The left went from mildly annoying to totalitarian rage screamers in 6 years and the only thing I can identify that’s changed is Trump.
The man has broken tens of millions of Americans mentally while presiding over one of the most financially successful presidencies in US history.

Sticking to his guns haha. Keep it coming intellectual…

I wish just one of these dipshits explained what Trump has done to warrant what's said about him - racist, fascist, etc. If it's so obvious, it should be really easy to make the argument.

why, because he says Islam sucks? so does every other non muslim on Earth. he might agree with 10% of what this board thinks. same goes for those Weinstein tools. Rubin too. you’re allowing yourself to be manipulated. no, a 5 minute segment on Bill Mahers show saying woke sucks doesn’t mean he wouldn’t rather see you dead than Trump win again

I fail to see what Sam Harris has done in his career that renders him an authoritative voice on much of anything.
His arguments on morality are just rebranded utilitarianism that he thinks are somehow novel because he threw in some scientific terminology; and his arguments against free will that I’ve listened to are fairly laughable and sophomoric, such as his claim that existence of a spontaneous thought implies that all sensations of free will are illusory. I also personally think it’s rather pointless to even try and derive a moral code if your take on the world is that everything we do is predetermined, but that’s a conversation for a philosophy thread.
Even his arguments against religion for which he gained fame and are probably his most persuasive, primarily his excessive leaning into the problems of evil that believers in an omnipotent and omnibenevolent entity have to grapple with, have decent rebuttals that are accepted in the theological and philosophical communities as holding water (Plantinga’s free will defense being a solid place to start but by no means the only contention).
His domain of expertise is neuroscience, and I’m not sure how much he’s actually published in that domain and as far as I’m aware he hasn’t done much work there in a very long time.
He was a fun listen for a while and I used to like his podcast as an empiricist. However, he just hasn’t aged well at all. Not sure what about his takes on the world warrants any bandwidth from me these days.

Yeah, Biden’s face contorted in unadulterated rage there really screams more gaffe than window to the soul.
Some of these asshats really deserve a throat punch from Conor McGregor every time they put such utter bullshite into the world.

I haven’t seen any manly men who are afflicted with TDS. Just like I never saw manly men afflicted with virulent hatred of Sarah Palin.
It’s all betas and femmes.

Translation: If my guy does it, it's a gaffe. If your guy does it, it's because he's truly evil.
Put even more plainly: That's (D)ifferent.
