Know your enemy.

Gavin Newsom is a blasphemous vulgar liar.
My opinion of him surprisingly dropped during this interview. I didn't know that I could like him less than before.
That being said, I do think it's important to host conversations with people we disagree with. Echo chambers only exacerbate the confirmation bias circle jerk. No one grows without being dissolutioned occasionally. Most importantly, we must know our enemy.

Worst show ever

Hope this isn't a sign of the future. Shawn gives eveil a voice and a platform. Shawn is being influenced by evil and apparently losing. I pray he is given discernment to eee.

Thank you for interviewing all view points not just the one you believe in.

We need more people who are willing to look at all angles not just one !
