That's the literal definition and rarely used. Sam is using it here with the more modern definition of the act of dismissing someone from a position of authority. His sentence could be read like this: The fact that people can't actually talk about them without being dismissed from their positions of authority is a layer of the problem I'm convinced we have to solve.

In the late sixties, my sister said, "Isn't it weird that if you know someone's position on Vietnam, you know where they stand on everything else?" Maybe people have always been this way.

@@MrGgabber Hmm, I fail to grasp what secular humanism and it’s innate morality has to do with not accepting Giuliani acting as universal news editor, deciding when a story drops or not. The issue was not if information should or should not be published. As a European, I have to say that in retrospect I am relieved that the Russian invasion of Ukraine didn’t occur after Trump being re-elected. The geopolitical landscape, especially for us (I say while being fully aware of the explicit solipsism), would be FUBAR. Either way, do you really believe that Harris has an ego comparable to Billy boi? If so, how do you square that belief with his philosophical views on free will/determinism and/or eastern philosophy?

Thanks for talking with Mr. Harris. I didn't know him! I look forward to chasing down his podcasts in the future.

I don't mean this rudely. I'm sure you are fine individual. I don't even like Sam all that much, let alone agree with him a whole lot, compared to when I found him nearly a decade ago, but I worry that there are capable worthwhile citizens such as yourself out there who haven't listened at some length to people like Sam Harris, or who are just discovering him now. Not just Sam, but all of the people in the "alternative" sphere that is somewhat difficult to define while self evident and obviously worthwhile voices of our age. Sam and others like them are fairly prolifically represented as a guest on an incredible number of podcasts and shows on the internet for an entire decade at this point. He's almost impossible to miss, provided you consume any of the extensive catalog of worthwhile free speech earnest modern media, and not just corrupt corporate mental junk food. Not knowing who Sam Harris is before November 2022 is jarring to hear. Again, I apologize if that seems rude, but it needs to be said. I hope this sparks a curiosity to come along for the ride. Better late than never. Again, I'm not even a big Sam Harris fan, his day in the sun was pre-2016 for sure. And there's a reason for that, as we all collectively get to know people's thought process and opinions over time. He has been found lacking by his greater audience over time, so it's ironic Bill loves him so much. Such is life, we evolve, as does the zeitgeist. You have plenty of happy work to do and I actually envy you similar to the envy one has for someone who has yet to watch your favorite movie because they get to watch it with fresh eyes.

Never underestimate the idiocy of a moderately intelligent and articulate man who lacks wisdom. Although he has many great takes, Harris's blind loyalty to the left is nauseating and hypocritical, almost as sickening as his unintelligent fans. In a world of the blind a one eyed man is king.

The criticism I would make is that without living in a muslim country you can't appreciate the subtlety of the lifestyle so your criticisms are going to be superficial and very broad high level. Same with criticising Israel without having lived there. You are also going to project your Western values and preferences on another country where they arguably don't apply.

He couldn’t b more off about covid. He sounds ridiculous. Two words: specialized & preventative…… As in specialized medicine & preventative medicine. Theses r the 2 pillars in the foundation of U.S. medicine. Suggesting every MD should have equal value applied to their opinion regarding every medical issue is ridiculous. Then, to suggest people should just get sick instead of using the vaccine, again silly & goes against our entire medical objective. Finally, his personal assessment that as a 70 year old man who smokes, claiming covid is not a serious threat is absolutely absurd & naive.

Sam went easy on him. Also, he never understood the point Sam made about Giuliani manipulating the information time line to effect the election. Who cares that we heard it after the election when the person dropping the story (Giuliani) in the first place is attempting to manipulate the election? They (Republicans) did it successfully against Hillary & then they got blocked the second time around against Biden. Heres an idea, how about Republicans win an election on the strength of their candidate instead of muddying the waters 10 days prior to every election? Then no one needs to worry if info or stories r being suppressed.

@@friedricengravy6646 I agree with your assessment. I appreciate that Bill has self-focus on building immunity with his healthy eating, etc. as I started into nutrition, yoga meditation, etc. in 1973 as a kid. Was vegetarian/vegan a few years but as things evolved it proved not to be the best balance. My profession is with environmental business, designing 45+ years eco-communities, organic farms, food systems, restoring natural habitats and have a team of 8-10 people for that, all with degrees from architecture to naturopathic doctor. With that understanding for improving the ecology its when combining plants and animals together, when done properly is the most sustainable, contrary to what the current marketing of "eat veggies save the environment" has many people believing. On COVID though, I had three relatives succumb to it and did not survive. I have relatives and know several nurses who were on the front lines and very upset with Bill's mindset during the pandemic. I managed to dodge it for 2.5 years until just 2 months ago.....with one day of mild symptoms and in just a few hours of several of my work helpers being in the office (before I got a test) and I tested right there with two of the instant tests and it was positive. All went to masks and went home but, just from that brief exposure in the same office all tested positive and had symptoms the next day and one's spouse got it the day after that. If people wanted to "exercise their freedom" as Bill describes then fine.....just stay home and don't go near anyone. Anyone trying to deal with what to do about Covid as it spread had a hard job.

So many awesome conversations happening these days in different styles. Love it

Thank you!
