Thanks for providing additional information on the debate!

Funny enough wikipedia is mentioned in the debate a couple of times, hahaha

Quick key search for 'wikipedia' through lexfridman transcript:

Norman Finkelstein (02:00:00) You read what Wikipedia said.

Norman Finkelstein (02:41:22) You haven’t a clue because you can’t find it on Wikipedia. You can’t find it on Wikipedia-

Steven Bonnell (02:41:24) But I’m just saying… Believe it or not, Norm, the entire Geneva Convention is all on Wikipedia. It’s a wonderful website. But I’m just saying that on the Hamas side, if there’s an attempt to induce this type of military activity, attempt to induce civilian harm, that it’s not just enough to say, “Well, here’s a diary entry where a guy talks about how tragic these attacks are.”

Norman Finkelstein (04:24:16) All you have is Wikipedia.

Wait are you ex leftist current crackpot Jimmy Dore? Please please please talk to Cenk and get off the anti vax copium. Trust me, you'd rather make an honest buck.

Hahaha, Jimmy Dore ain't got time to be on forums, even if he did have time, I don't think he would be in forums...

Vaccines and all that good stuff, COVID19.

Yeah, Jimmy went all in due to vaccine injury when he took the second shot.

Anyway, I don't think we would agree on that subject, hahaha
