Very interesting to hear this fellow's point of view. I read the long critique of open Supply by Adam Zivo in the National Post and it swung me over to the other side so it was nice to have a counterbalance from a very kind and compassionate and interesting person with a great perspective on the subject.
Thank you for bringing some Viewpoint diversity to bear on an actual social issue. Please continue to have more of these conversations! I know you have spent a lot of the year exposing and discussing with guests the problem with our lack of viewpoint diversity in media and in universities etc. And it's definitely worth talking about that and being aware of it. At some point I was looking forward to you shifting into actual subjects rather than that meta conversation about Viewpoint diversity. This is a great example of that. Even bringing in his commentary on spirituality at the end of your talk was a nice touch. Because we don't hear people talk about that, and Canadians seem to have a knee-jerk reaction against anyone who brings in religion or spirituality as a guide or motivator for their work.
"Just give us utopian architects of society your money and power and we'll give free and supervised drugs to anyone who wants them. We were so right on everything COVID, you should just trust us. It's your eyes lying to you. There aren't bums everywhere using drugs. The experts with all the agreed upon statistics are right, and your having to skirt a drug addicted bum on the streets is a figment of your imagination." I paraphrase. Your choices in life lead to predictable results. Taking drugs, continuing to take drugs, these are choices. You make the choices and you deal with the results.
Good interview! Our criminal justice system seems like a massive, bloated entity. It’s heartbreaking to imagine how many people are crushed under its weight!
