Disagree completely. One of the most intellectually honest reporters in the game and one who definitely engages meaningfully with a broad spectrum of ideas. He is well within his rights to toss out some he thinks are utter rubbish

2025-03-27 23:59:13 +0000 UTCKlein came across quite poorly in this second part. Over and over again he strikes a patronizing tone when talking about ideological positions other than his own (I could barely stand the arrogance with which he dismisses the politics of young people). Of all the guests Joshua has had on so far Klein is perhaps the most close-minded.
