Lex Fridman: ''I gave Zelensky every single chance to say a kind word about Putin''

Redditors wrote how the interview was based how cool it was for Zelenskyy to swear and telling he hates every Russian (to an Russian) and Russian language

Kellogg has cancelled his visit to Ukraine after this genius interview since Zelenskyy obviously did this interview not for burger not for Russian and not for most Ukrainian but for specific far right Ukrainians that are 30% of the population. Zelenskyy is betting on them. Huge chunk including Zelenskyy and his team are Russian speaking, lex even mentioned that before the interview Zelenskyy was speaking Russian.

This how Redditors were criticising lex

Please. Lex's conversation with Zelenskyy was such a bait. Zelenskyy would touch on so many interesting topics and lex would just ignore what he says and go back to peace and love, Trump loves his country, why do you admire Elon? Weak butt questions. You have a world leader in front of you who is at war, a very rare position, and the best question you can muster is love and peace?

He should had asked where are the f16, 500+ billions ? Why Ukraine launching stupid butt operation ? Why Ukraine didn't managed to liberate a single town since November 2022, despite getting absolutely everything they asked in 2022 ? Why in 2023 September he was saying Ukraine will liberate 2 cities by end of the year ?

@duck you see when I am saying something I can always back it up.

Why it took over a year to fire Reznikov when in 2022 burgers were saying he is corrupt please fire him.

Why he fired Zaluzhnyy by saying Zaluzhnyy wants lower the mobilisation age and Ukraine doesn't need it to after firing Zaluzhnyy he lowers the mobilisation age ?

There is like shit tons of questions that could be asked to Zelensky but I bet Redditors wouldn't like those questions.

Lex is a conservative, a Russian Jew.

I happen to believe in God, for which I have substantial personal evidence to support my belief, but it still requires faith. So I am a human, on earth and I get to do amazing things, all because of God, the creator of the universe and everything in it.

His quote.

What is important ti conservatives? Love for good and people then selfs are stupid and without God or other kind of authority guidance humans would just be animals so they have concept of moral.

Libs believe in freedom, individualism, rights, tolerance and rationalism. So if you give people freedom they then self will do good without need of God.

So you see, God is important to this guy and love your neighbor is very important concept in abramic religion.

So it wasn't smart for Zelenskyy to say frick the neighbor to such guy.

In regards to the "conservative podcasts" thing, though (firstly lol to identifying Lex's show as conservative), I think Lex is the goldmine in terms of being both passive and uninformed. The ideal conservative interlocutor for Zelensky should be someone exactly like that, and I think he could improve his rhetoric by making use of that weakness through pausing to let the other person answer his questions. I noticed multiple instances in the podcast where it would've benefitted Zelensky more to let Lex respond to something he asked, because the narrow scope of a question forces an uninformed opponent to expose their ideological weakness. When you do a broad ramble covering an array of topics it may be a strength if your goal is to obfuscate, but it's a weakness if it's your opponent's goal to obfuscate. Lex's bias in that conversation was clear but so was his inability to defend any points, so I almost wish Zelensky had shifted his expectations of Lex downwards so his questions, rather than being rhetorical with the implicit understanding that he and his audience are smart enough to agree with the answer, were real questions Lex had to vocally grapple with. In that sense I hope that if Zelensky does more combative media appearances, regardless of how far-right the interviewer is, they have a similar level of temperament to Lex Fridman. Thus ends my analysis.

Redditors legit thought it was good interview

https://old.reddit.com/r/Destiny/comments/1hvsfnr/destiny_shot_his_shot_at_a_chance_of_interviewing/

I would much rather have Zelensky on Rogan than Destiny tbh. People need to remember conservatives only care about what Trump thinks on an issue, but getting the psuedo-intellectual tech centrist audiences that people like Rogan,Williamson, Bilyeu and even Piers has would be way more impactful.

Rogan rejected it because it's now worth it could lead to some unnecessary drama. He did suggested he could talk to Putin because in such case they will spend most time talking about mma without random swearing and emotional pitches.

Like can you name another leader in las 30 years that was swearing in interviews ?

Syrian new leader is more professional than Zelenskyy for frick sake.

jfl imagine showing an industrial area getting hit

He sat there for the first 20 minutes telling Zelensky to speak Russian...the language of the country that is killing his people....Pretty clear Lex is a Russian asset

— Jenny 🇨🇦 (@shindig101) January 20, 2025

Somehow absolutely vast majority of local Ukrainian refugees speaking Russian

Elon prob encouraged him to push this narrative in an attempt to "character assinate" Zelensky in the public eye — after what was a successful interview for Zelensky. This method of personal attack is a classic Elon tactic.

— Michael Hickin (@hickinmichael) January 20, 2025

So Elon set a trap to Zelenskyy and Zelenskyy wildly opened his bussy for it ?

If someone killed someone close to Lex Fridman, I'm curious how Fridman would use his chances?

Literally nobody got killed in Ukrainian elite circle

Klitchko sons that are 25+ are chilling in Germany getting ready to lead later Ukrainian gov

Oh there is an extended edit

The full 4 min of this diatribe is even worse. Lex is preparing the ground for his Putin interview release. https://t.co/SvJNR3JrFH

Dude, stop calling Ukrainians bots @lexfridman.

Millions of us dislike you for what you’ve said.

We don’t want to hear hogwash Kremlin propaganda in English.

Anyone who goes to the Kremlin on friendly terms is a traitor to America.

Nooo you can't attack the greatest leader of all the time

TLDR: it's bad etiquette for politicians of that calibre to swear

The following 4 years will be a great teaching opportunity for those who will be self-aware enough to swim out of the conspiracy whirlpool, and actually realize that the prices of everything will double because of their own credulity that made them vote for a scam artist, who promised to stop inflation by implementing one of the origins of inflation, namely tarrifs. They will have to endure through many inconvieniences, like when they step into the human feces on the street that the saar who just took their job shat there, the same saar that was just invited in by Trump, when our dumbass with the shitty boots thought he was voting for the orange saviour who promised to get rid of all the undesirable aliens, and not bring even more in. And when our hero won't even have to worry about which game franchise's new entry he won't buy that the blue haired DEI pronoun lady ruined, because he will have to scour the garbage cans for food, because even food he won't be able to afford. It all will be a struggle and hard confrontation with your past guilible self, I hope you will be capable of it.

I bet whoever made this is really embarrassed now.

Not trying to play devils advocate for a racist weirdo, but how are you sure? Not trying to argue, just curious what gave it away.

This is, of course, assuming it's the OK hand gesture. If it's something less obscure, the answer is self explanatory

He was taking a selfie in the mirror. The hand that was at his side was doing the white power gesture. Hands do not naturally fall like that… so no.

EDIT: Hinge has actually emailed me to say they've taken action against him, so I'm not mistaken as you're inferring.

Her previous posts indicate she absolutely hates men, but is having trouble finding her disney prince on dating apps because they all love hitler.

My Chud feed is out of control! Of all the videos it could have shown me, they could choose this one lol... Surprisingly though, not many noticers as I think they were drowned out by all the women arguing with one another.

1. "you mean plating a meal... not cooking" "she didn't say she made it" posts screenshot of the video clearly stating that she made it

2. "making lunch... LOL!" "be nice... we should support our fellow Moms" "you must have raised her!"

3. "I can't even watch this... so unhealthy" "Okay Karen" "you don't even look like you eat healthy!"

4. "maybe learn to wash dishes first..." "who are you to talk? flat back Betty!"

5. "I'm Asian and I think this is okay" "then you not real Asian"

6. "is that paper plates..." "most women in the USA work, hence the paper plates" "you lazy F*cks..."

Noticer 1. "I want to see her kids..."

Noticer 2. "watermelon... chicken... NEVER has the kids in her videos... I'm noticing!" "racist"

(Soy) Noticer 3. "this is the most racist video I've seen all day!" "I was looking for Kool Aid and grape soda"

A later statement confirmed: "There has been a shooting at the school. Four people have been shot. The extent of the injuries is unclear. The operation is still ongoing.

That number has since been raised to five - while police also denied local reports that officers had been shot.

The shooting took place in a campus area which includes several schools for both children and adults.

Sorry guys, no rebuilding your fancy houses that burned down by the ocean in LA until there’s a new crack den installed right in the middle of the neighborhood.

The happy Swedes decided to cap off a month where every day had a bomb attack or jihadi execution with a mass shooting

Motive currently unknown

https://apnews.com/article/sweden-shooting-adult-education-center-6be99a59fa3404ae296589e60c881f6c

About 10 people, including the gunman, were killed on Tuesday at an adult education center in what Sweden's prime minister called the country's worst mass shooting. But a final death toll, a conclusive number of wounded and a motive hadn't yet been determined hours later.

Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson gave a news conference in the aftermath of the tragedy, which happened on the outskirts of Orebro. The city is located about 200 kilometers (125 miles) west of Stockholm.

The school, called Campus Risbergska, serves students over age 20, according to its website. Primary and upper secondary school courses are offered, as well as Swedish classes for immigrants, vocational training and programs for people with intellectual disabilities.

"Today, we have witnessed brutal, deadly violence against completely innocent people," Kristersson told reporters in Stockholm. "This is the worst mass shooting in Swedish history. Many questions remain unanswered, and I cannot provide those answers either.

"But the time will come when we will know what happened, how it could occur, and what motives may have been behind it. Let us not speculate," he said.

Gun violence at schools is very rare in Sweden. But there have been several incidents in recent years in which people were wounded or killed with other weapons such as knives or axes.

Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer called the shooting "an event that shakes our entire society to its core."

While Swedes read about such violence in other places, Strömmer said that the country previously felt it wouldn't happen there. Other tragedies in Swedish schools weren't to the extent of Tuesday's attack, he said, calling it "indescribably sad" for the community.
