Good times!!

Love Revisionist History, but they destroyed Ariel's story here. She didn't become weak when she transformed herself into a human. She is the bravest princess, she left her world and everything she knew, she is an explorer, she is learning the ways of a new culture and risked everything to follow her heart. Ursula is a despicable witch who exploits people's weaknesses to steal their souls and make them slaves so she can keep doing her magic and gain power to her own benefit. Everyone is warned about her, and they look for her because they want an easy fix for their trouble. Even if she (Ursula) could one day become good, she wouldn't change from one second to the other. Then you forgive her for everything she has done without any consequence and or repair, giving a pass to anyone who wants to do bad, and then justify their behavior by becoming a victim of society. Little Mermaid is not perfect, but inspires us to explore, to lean on new ideas, and world views, and to get out of our safety nests. It challenges pre-concepts and teaches us to fight for what we think is right and keep questioning the law. Laws are also imperfect and not always fair. I also loved that in her most vulnerable moment, Ariel had her friends to count on and despite her lack of skills or her voice, she figured out a way to make it into the ship and save her beloved prince from Ursula. Lastly, Ariel's father reconsidered all his judgment and hate towards humans to see his daughter happy and their love united two completely different group of people.

The world went along with it, not just the USA. Trump 2024.

Lol damnit Malcolm you couldn’t resist throwing in that last “doug” here could you?

Malcom and his team mate are opening with good arguments and then Murray precedes to insult Malcom personally before debating like he should.

Do you think for 1 second that you were just possibly wrong? “Murray is one of those “WHITE” men…..tells me all I need to know about you Malc

Do you think for 1 second that you were just possibly wrong?

So now he’s going to copy Jordan Peterson?

Very very interesting

Malcolm has morphed into just another race card playing huckster. But when you find yourself on the wrong side of debates I suppose desperate times call for desperate measures.

Total fool - overpaid and listened to unfortunately

The lack of self criticism here is mesmerising.

How in the world does a lifelong journalist not have the capacity to simply listen to another person and discern what they are trying to say?

The fact that you stated Douglas Murray would be yelling racial epithets at your mother in the very same (supposedly) contrite podcast where you pretend to be “listening” and “learning” is frankly disgusting. In many ways, your cute little “going to debate school” gimmick is worse than your Munk debacle because it attempts soften your deep-seated pride and vitriol with kids’ voices. Cheap and obvious. I was a huge fan and consumer of your books - they no longer read the same way. You have much bigger issues to deal with than getting publicly spanked by some clever Brit. You’re deeply unaware of who you really are. Start by “listening” to yourself.

Boils down to pride. Even in this analysis you still believe the argument was between mainstream and alternative. Neither Douglas nor Matt were arguing for alternative media to completely replace mainstream, but rather that mainstream needs to soul check itself back from the bias trash that it’s become. You started from a false premise and let that lead your assumptions of the men to build straw men of their beliefs (kinda exactly like the mainstream media does to narratives it disagrees with). Then, you didn’t listen in good faith to what they said because your own assumptions and pride wouldn’t allow you to give any credibility to them. All debate has to start in good faith - the side that comes to belittle and disrespect always loses in the end.

Me me me me. Me me me. Me! Me me me me me me me. Me me me. Me me me me I. Me.

Sooo...what were you scribbling while Douglas was making his opening comments? Your creepy starring at Taibbi was something else. Why not move back to Listowell and practice your Bs by shovellling all the Horsesh** from the Mennonite buggies?

Oh...Hi fool!

People say Malcolm Gladwell has learnt nothing. Completely untrue. At least he can now pronounce Taibbi.

❤🎉❤🇨🇦💯♥️

I'm sorry Malcolm. The debate was humiliating but this just makes me feel sorry for you. The world is changing. We are waking up as individuals and shedding our , state sponsored, institutional programming. You, however, are holding on to it.

A lot of hurt feelings in the comments :D poor you, all offended, after everything you've done for Malcolm

Only God can forgive

And God and God knows you can’t believe anything. The CIA says all they do is lie.

We didn’t have the right to give it to him in the first place and we didn’t take it away because we had no ride to give it to him in the first place

Sounds like Malcolm Gladwell is making excuses for Poor journalism!

So it’s OK for the press to lie because that is a lie of omission not presenting information that is important is a lie. It’s called a Lie lof omission

Im sorry how many nra members have been killed standing their ground? Do you have a number? I think you have no clue!

Gladwell reached a tipping point then jumped to his death. He’s a walking talking symbol of everything that is wrong with today’s media.

Lo😅lo

Absolute trash

1. You didn’t call Douglas by Doug just once you repeatedly did this after he’d corrected you the first time. You also mispronounced Matt Taibbi’s name too which the audience saw for what it was, a snide little power-play. 2. Murray writes extensively about the social consequences of mass immigration from war torn countries within Europe, so cherry picking a quote and framing it as racist (and that he’d shout the N word to your Mum when she was young) is very on-brand for you. 3. Why do you feel the need to cite Murray’s skin colour? 4. Never in this post-analysis did you acknowledge your childish gestures, just one example when gesturing to shoot your own head when the Biden Laptop story was brought up.

1, 2, Doug is looking for you

Wow. Incredible man. Free Palestine ❤

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

LOL

It didn’t take me 10,000 hours to realize he’s a total ideological hack. I will now point anyone who brings up his name to that debate to reveal his narcissistic agenda and elementary depth of intelligence.

Excellent!

Your race baiting was a disgrace.

Poker Face, which streams on Peacock, is about a woman who can tell when people are lying by looking at them or listening to their voice.

I am so glad this movie didn't get made with Murphy's horrible attempt at telling the story the way he wanted it told-because for him the audiences would be too stupid to make their own conclusions about what the real story means. Murphy neeeded to Hollywoodize it, otherwise it would just be way too boring, and way too void of its speech giving moments. What a load of crap. He could have just wrote the story the way it was, and let people see that individuals are complicated, and we could each decide for ourselves how these characters came to be how they were. No wonder the actual protagonist of the story also hated it. By trying not to make it a statement about race, Murphy decided the best approach would be to make it ultra-centered on race. Not all whites kids are innocent, and not all black kids are criminals, and I don't think I need Murphy to be the one to wedge his take into a story that has it's own lessons to tell. Its no wonder why most movies made these days are crap. Take a fascinating story and give it to a screenwriter to turn it into broccoli and Cap'n Crunch Soup with lighter fluid.

I'm glad my teacher is spending an entire unit on this and directed us to your podcast. I had no idea about any of this. My entire life. And I consider myself socially aware. I'm so angry to learn about this history. I mean, I'm thankful to learn about it. But I'm upset and engaged that all of these students and teachers were abandoned in this way.

No bad at all. Style out of spoil indeed

I used to respect you Malc, I know I’m a bit late, but I just watched the debate you had with Douglass Murray, and Matt Taibbi, and I’m embarrassed I ever thought you were worth listening to, that was appalling. The lack of respect in which you treated your opponents was classless, which would have been bad enough, but your arguments were childish and in many cases had nothing to do with either the topic, or what was said. Maybe you’ll learn and grow, but you’ve exposed yourself, and now we can see who, and what you are…

"Trust is not about the content, it is about the process" Yeah right.

Malcolm, still not getting it. There is no finer example of tone-deaf arrogance.

Malcolm’s attitude and behavior during the debate isn’t any different than the majority of the people on his side ideologically. They are more committed to their ideological presuppositions than they are to reality or to facts. If they can condescend to you and call you some collection of names ending in “ist or ism” that’s all they care about.

I’m amazed this guy didn’t disable the comments. He certainly isn’t learning anything from them though.

“But, Doug is a racist…” clearly, you learned nothing. Take the “L”

The Kronkite thing wasn't a distractor. It was a good faith argument. You still don't get it.
