> Listen to... Lex

People can do that? I always assumed Lex was a CIA psyop to experiment with the ability to make people sleep on demand.

While that might take it a little too far, Lex surely is a dangerous individual. On various occasions did he sympathize with the war and terror that Russia is doing in Ukraine. I do not click on any of his content because I will not support these (and a few other questionable, to say the least) views of his. Also his image of an MIT researcher is hilarious.

I'm not a devotee of his but I've listened to a few of his podcasts when I like the guest. I have an idea of how someone would come away with your impression given lex's interview style but I'd be pretty surprised if anything he said would, to me, fit your impression.

That said, I'd like an example if you have something specific to point to that might change my mind or if it's just a general takeaway you've gotten from a corpus of interviews on the topic (which would be totally valid but wouldn't change my mind).

Yes. How do so many people fall for this guy? I find him pretty creepy, to be honest.

I'm a big fan of his. I particularly enjoy his long technical interviews like the one he did with Peter.

You don't really listen for Lex, but his guests.

He's just another alt right podcast grifter.
