So great to see 2 highly intelligent pp, from opposite sides of the political spectrum have such a respectful, thoughtful and highly entertaining discussion. Very enjoyable watch!

I found this quite nice. They didn't say anything I wouldn't have expected, but it was nice to see them chatting about it.

One thing that really struck me was the way DM identified the whole movement as deeply misogynistic and wanting to control women. There is a contingent of people wh seem to be convinced that the politically or culturally conservative are themselves inveterate sexists who believe women should have no autonomy. I think it's worth noting that it seems pretty clear that people like DM, or Jordam Peterson for that matter, seem to be as incensed by that kind of behaviour as anyone on the left.

It won't convince anyone new, but my god I enjoyed these two smart people riffing off the ridiculousness of modern queer culture. Oh, and how posh and young is their host?!

I need to go and listen to that.

I heard a wonderful quote from Murray the other day. To paraphrase: 'What is all this LGBTQAI++ nonsense? We're not a community. We're not the same. There is no greater chasm in the world than that between gay men and asexuals.'

That was a great rant! Thanks OP - very funny and to the point.

Thanks, OP. That's well worth watching.

So funny. Imagine a round of drinks with these two!

An excellent video - thanks for sharing.

Thanks for pointing this out - I really enjoyed it. I always like listening to both of them anyway and interesting to see how much common ground they have on this despite their political differences.
