He followed protocol. And if GF would’ve simply gotten into the vehicle and stop squirming around like a fish out of water, there would’ve been no need for chauvin ti take him to the ground
Everyone blames chauvin yet absolves GF of any role in his demise . Not even counting the drugs he ingested that was gonna kill him that day anyway.

Is this mostly about Israel?

So I don’t know what this guy thinks.
But he says maybe I was being hyperbolic, maybe…
He emphasized the maybe part.
Why do that?

Listened to the whole thing.
In DM eyes, Israel and the Israeli population is special.
Just like BLM was in the eyes of dems.
It was beyond frustrating to listen to.
He’s a non woke establishment hack.

Smith is a clown
His foreign policy? War is bad, government sanctioned murder is bad, USA World Police is bad.
I mean. . .that's just craaaaazy.

Just finished it as well. I'm a fan of Murray and Smith, and enjoy listening to their takes on various issues.
However, this wasn't a great debate performance by Douglas. From the start, he was quite antagonistic, and kept bogging down the conversation with critiques of Dave's vocabulary and characterization of certain topics. Yet at the same time, kept mischaracterizing Dave's actual arguments, and dismissed direct quotes.
I almost had to shut it off when Douglas was giving Dave shite for never visiting Gaza. I was glad Rogan finally stepped in, told Douglas to stop interrupting, and move on.

Nah. Floyd signed his own death warrant that day, but Chauvin stayed on that dude's neck too long for protocol
Him being convicted on murder is a bridge too far, but the dude should be stripped of his badge and unable to show his face in Minnesota again.
maybe that's the whacko libertarian in me coming out. i'm back the blue but the dude was a moron for being able to be filmed that long on a neck/shoulder.

they don't get into Israel for an hour and a half. and even then it's a spill over of the Ukraine conversation.

Does a valid debate of Israel give you the scares?

Douglas Murray isn't as smart as he thinks he is. Nobody is
Posted on 4/10/25 at 7:16 pm to stuntman
Murray is pretentious enough as it is and then the British accent just makes it 100x worse.

The top comment:
Let me add
quote:
Forty minutes in, here's a summary.
Douglas: "people will claim to be an expert then hide behind 'I'm just a comedian' when they're challenged."
Dave: "I've never claimed to be an expert."
Douglas: "you see, Joe, this is the problem when people who aren't experts talk about this stuff."
Joe: "are you saying only experts are allowed to talk about this stuff?"
Douglas: "no, you don't need to be an expert to talk about this stuff."
Repeat these quotes about 6 - 8 times and you have basically listened to the first 40 minutes of this show.
Let me add
quote:
Murray: If these people who I don't like say things I don't like, they need to debate the "experts" that say the things I like
Smith: If they don't want to debate people, it means nothing for Cooper. He isn't a debate guy, and he has said as much.
45 mins later:
Smith: I am happy to debate any of these experts you think can refiute what I say!
Murray: Oh, now you are doing the "debate me. bro" thing
Smith That is literally the opposite of your criticism of Cooper?

outside of Ukraine and Israel, I agree with Murray a whole lot, but both of these are accurate. he's just pretentious and smarmy. numerous time Dave is willing to concede points to find common ground where he agrees that Putin is bad or Gaza has done wrong and Murray waves away anything that doesn't support his point of view.
He literally said "yeah that was just one one recording, but ignore that."

Murray is a very smart guy, but Dave just owns this debate so far (at 1:30 so far)
Murray strawman's everyone's argument (called Darryl Cooper a Nazi apologist and a Holocaust denier), when confronted on all this bullshittery, he counters with "I have seen other people say similar things online"
He focuses on "appeals to authority", and when Smith brings up experts and actual participants, Murray falls back on "but come on. . ."
Murray is a good speaker and a great author, but Dave looks like a seasoned debater facing an eloquent, intelligent high school kid.

i don't even care about eloquence in debate. i won district debate 3 years in a row and got 3rd at state and i can get my arse handed to me easily when the facts aren't on my side..
Murray just flat out isn't acting in good faith throughout the whole thing and you can tell that Smith is trying to find common ground throughout.
the entire Cooper portion of the debate sets the tone for Murray's entire take.
"he's a holocaust denier."
no he covers the horrors of pogroms and the holocaust very well in "fear and loathing in the new jersalem," and will have a long portion of the evils of the holocaust in his new WWII series.
"he's a nazi sympathizer and hitler apologist"
no, he calls Hitler an evil drug addeled psychopath
"he thinks Churchill is the great villain of WWII"
no, he said that Churchill did several actions between the treaty of Versailles and post-invasion of Poland that escalated the war.
