Thanks for giving a fair interview. It is nice to see people from different sides have a conversation that you can actually learn from. This needs to be shown to the clowns over at TYT.
Lmfao I agree, David is the WORST and I have no idea why people think he’s intelligent. He’s rude and obnoxious, 30 minutes is not enough time in the first place… but to say you want “sanity check” and then avoids any response or questions from Prager
Pakman: I don’t have a answer. So we’ll let the people/audience decide. -Yeah, leave it to Pakman’s Left wing audience that lives in a echo chamber decide.
@@breakerd1 Let's not overlook the fact that Pakman made this statement in response to Prager's "if one believes that Trump is a neo-n" scenario. He asked if the left would be morally bound to cheat if they believed this is true. Was Pakman supposed to counter by asking that if one believed that "Hillary should be locked up", would the right have been morally bound to cheat to keep her out of office? I agreed with plenty of Prager's points, but he was off in the woods here and Pakman was right to move on.
@breakerd1 I wish pakman did know more about the situation in other countries on trans issues cuz prager is exaggerating. There's not a ban to treat kids with gender dysphoria with gender affirming care. The most there is is extra precautions. Prager also left out that despite a trans women holding a national record, a cis woman still has her beat by nearly 500 lbs when it comes to the Guinness world record. You should look up Shaun's video on prageru and fatherhood. It exposes just how much of a bad faith liar prager can be.
Disagree that civility is needed in this case. We're not talking about apples and oranges. Democrats want rights for people without regards for whether they personally believe in them or not. People like Prager want an environment that divorces us from our fundamental tenet of separation of church and state, and allows "MORAL HIGHGROUND" to supersede human beings rights in a free and secular society. Accepting equal footing here as "civil and friendly" means accepting the removal of rights based on religious biases which is exactly what the current establishment GOP would want from Americans.
Referring to acknowledgment that the 2020 election results were valid, Praeger says, "I don't know what that gains us." It gains us confidence in our American electoral process and the overwhelming majority of civil servants - many of them Republican - who certified those results. It gains us the victory of evidence and the rule of law over partisan baseless claims. It gains us respect for the peaceful transition of power.
It gives us a baseline of reality where obvious lies are not accepted... It's pretty hard to be "agnostic" when one side had a clear plan from the beginning to lie, executed those lies, and then tried to overturn the election based on lies. And then they call themselves patriots yet me being on the other side have never felt so patriotic in my life standing up to them.
Well said. Prager revealed that he is nothing but a pseudo-intellectual partisan hack. The evidence was presented to republican judges, and election results were certified by many republican officials. Prager is just like right wing media bcs he knows they would have done anything to find proof of dem election fraud, and they didn't.
It seems wild to me that he would call his stance "agnostic" which I assume he means it makes no difference what the truth is. It either is or it isn't true. It's not like, say, religion where you can take an agnostic stance on whether god exists and could never be really proven one way or another. It would seem to encourage this idea that truth is relative to the right. They think arguing their points loudly enough and with enough conviction, and they can make anything the truth.
5 minutes into interview - Prager: “Aren’t you morally obligated to cheat if you believe Trump is a fascist?” Pakman: “look, we’re running out of time here let’s move on” lol 😭
yup every liberal answer to any question that they know they’re just completely wrong 🤣 “UHH WHY DON’T WE MOVE ON / OK IM NOT GOING TO ARGUE WITH YOU” about something i know is wrong, so lets just ignore all the bullshit that i believe, and just bring it up when its convenient, but people on the “right” they’re just blah blah blah, any excuse to not look like the liberal cunts they are. If you think you’re so right about everything, why not stick to it, instead of running Everytime? 😮🤣
@@MrGgabber right, at least he doesn’t need to be told what he is to know it, unlike the liberal children of the corn 🤣 Don’t worry “your smart” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
why would you need to cheat against a fascist when all you have to do is point out all the unethical and unlawful actions that said fascist committed!!!! when someone cheats you in a boardgame does that mean that you have to cheat in order to win???? NO YOU CALL HIM/HER OUT FOR CHEATING!!!!!!!!
I commend David for having people like Dennis on. Conversing with people of different opinion makes for a much more meaning conversation, having discussed all sides of an argument.
Dude I know I'm starting to like Mr Pac-Man. Trying to get all sides to everything because it is annoying being in an algorithmic echo chamber of conservative saying the same shit every single day.

@@AnnettePaskiewicz you don’t need to be an expert to know that if a male feels like a girl then that is exactly what it it, a feeling. We need to be honest to kids as well as adults.

Nazi Germany was a reality, does it make it a good reality? Woke culture is a reality, does it make it a good one? This statement is a terrible argument. Ask Target, or Absolut. Go Woke = Go broke. If the majority of people in the US stands for wokism, their posture’s not reflected on the Free Market. Recently there’s been really bad outcomes related to the cancelling culture on social media promoted by people like George Soros. Where does he get all his money BTW? 😂😂😂😂
@@MarcillaSmith Implied. The left’s the one side of the political spectrum pushing the woke agenda. They tried it in films, sales dropped, they tried it on alcohol beverages, sales dropped and they keep trying it on both: mainstream and social media. The Bible’ s pretty clear. There’s the King James version, you don’t have to learn ancient Arameic. Jesus (Yashúa) loves us, but love isn’t always saying what people wanna hear. 🙏🏽🥺
@@MarcillaSmithI suppose David has quite depressing takes on the US overton window and his media context might confirm that. Sad he doesn't dare to speak from a progressive position or admit such opinions, if he has any
I've never watched David before. I want to commend him for his conduct in this discussion. I will listen to him more. I want to listen to people that lean in the opposite direction I do. Thank you David.
You have obviously never watched Mr. Packman before. He is known as one of the most bad faith debaters in history. The reason he can appear to be so apathetic is because Prager is such a good guest.
I don't agree with Dennis on pretty much anything but it does help me reminisce on how politics used to be, just talking and not getting angry about things you disagree with. It maybe isn't perfect but it's a lot better than just yelling and disagreeing, it has a chance for a real exchange of ideas
No one had the echo chambers like they do now. They were pretty much forced to hear different views, and to get a pretty good civics education. When you are in an echo chamber, everything outside of it seems dangerous, so they feel they have to fight all the time, and are hysterical about everything.
Us Republicans have always been in favor of open discussion. We don't try to cancel anyone or hate ppl for their views. But yes. It is dangerous for the left to try and control politics or classy ppl as extremists for being pro Maga. Or try to push queer education in public schools without parental consent. Maybe the left can learn from these mistakes.
I agree, this was great. I listen to D Prager often and never heard of David. David was refreshing and I thought it was a great back and forth conversation. We need more of this!
There's alot of people on the left having these convos, Sam Seder, TYT, destiny (even tho i dont like him), john Stewart. i think its a right wing talking point that liberals don't like having debate
Unless he discharged his brides for their adultery then he, according to Jesus, is himself an adulterer, not bound for Heaven. So why is he so obsessed with a club that rejected him 2,000 years ago? Guilt? Religious programming?
Absolutely. And Trump was just talking about doing so again to try and "clear his name." But HIS LAWYERS (and nearly everyone else with half a brain) talked him out of it. I wonder why?
He's not agnostic. No conservative can ever say straight out say that Biden won fairly. He has to do the song and dance of injecting doubt he doesn't really believe into the issue or be exiled like Cheney, kinzinger, and others and kiss his grift for $$ goodbye.
How do you feel about making Florida Ban the Bible from religious schools? Since there’s 25 mentions of homosexuality in the Bible it should be removed from every classroom in the State of Florida, regardless of religious affiliation of the school. Also, God supposedly condemned slavery at least 3 separate times and was used to justify slavery in this country, it promotes the idea that men have the right to use violence as a method of control over women. It contains numerous references of sexual violence against women either expressly commanded, condoned, or threatened by God. The Bible promotes racism, genocide, and mass murder. There is a significant public interest to not promoting this book to children. Also, if anyone’s concerned about a indoctrination here’s some numbers for you: from 1950-2020 (70 years) 330,000 children (that we know of) were abused by Catholic priests and around 80% of the victims were boys. In response, 848 priests were defrocked and 2,572 suffered lesser sanctions. Calling the church sex abuse scandal a “leprosy in our house,” Pope Francis tells an Italian newspaper that 1 in 50 Catholic clerics are pedophiles. Not were, ARE as in right now in 2023. Yes, the Pope stated publicly that 1 in 50 clerics are active child predators. Sunday school is literally grooming and indoctrination by definition, not to mention the word's etymology. I'm interested in your opinion on this book that's unsuitable for children, should it be banned why or why not?
Chess, Equestrian, Sailing??? 😂😂😂 That’s world class mental gymnastics Pakman. And I love how when you hit a dead end in your argument you shift the conversation. You have become a pro at that. Doesn’t go unnoticed.
@@PanthraxIV Who said I’m confused? And exactly he’s listing things where nobody cares what your gender is. The ones he doesn’t mention is where the rubber meets the road.
@@patricklandon7476 I guess even 'progressives' can actually make progress 🤣🤣... eventually, in theory, the could even stop being progressives. Progressives policies never work... they never take responsibility for the outcomes the conservatives correctly predicted....and their only response is... 'we didn't start soon enough'... 'we need to double down'... and we need more of your money to do it... a lot more. Most of them still think Marxism and Communism can work if they just give power to the 'right' people. Castro died worth over $900 MILLION.. Chavez was worth over $1 BILLION... maybe they'll get it 'right' next time... may God help us.
He just gave the most despicable racist a platform to spread more lies and disinformation and elevated a person who has no educational background only personal feelings to act as if he is some authority on the matter.. you were ill prepared and looked stupid.. this video only served to spread more disinformation go work for fox they will love you and you will fit right in
Which push back? They barely even got to talk about anything of substance. Amazing that David can talk to Dennis and not press him on any of the horrendous things he has said in his long career

I was waiting for real push back but David didn't want to debate. Only the Left has suppressed free speech? Yet he says the president who called the press the enemy of the people was his kind of president.
Prager would conveniently worm his way out of your comment by simply stating something like "God put tempations in my path in order to have the opportunity to fail, learn and overcome. I repented so... still going to Heaven."
@@trevorstine8647 but .. doesn’t the Bible say “for all have sinned …”. There isn’t anyone that hasn’t done something bad. Lying for example. I don’t think a person that has never told a lie even exists. As long as people repent and stop doing the same crap over and over the Bible says God forgives the people that confess and make a change 🤷
@@FactsMatter999 I don't know what the Bible says. The last time I read it, I was about 11 or 12. Understandably. that's around the time I stopped reading comic books. I can just predict how the loudest "Christians" defend their actions and positions over the course of my 49 years dealing with their illogic.
@@trevorstine8647 ok. But please allow me to clarify. Being religious and being a believer (Jesus called them “the faithful” )are two very different things. Jesus NEVER called any of his followers Christians. He called them “pistos” in the original Greek scriptures which means “the faithful”. There is a HUGE DIFFERENCE. If someone says I’m “faithful” (like a wife to a husband) then THEY HAVE TO BE otherwise it’s a lie in the eyes of God. Saying “I’m a Christian” is just a claim …let me give you an example… satanic rock band singer Tom Araya calls himself a CATHOLIC CHRISTIAN.., let that sink in. So of course people being out there doing crappy stuff while claiming to be religious do exist and have always existed duh?? That doesn’t undermine the fact there are TRUE faithful believers. So why am I giving you this lecture ?? Because all you secular , god hating people do not seem to grasp the difference between religious bad people (Jesus called out the Pharisees for being hypocrites) and good religious people (I call them faithful) … so I’ll clarify by giving examples: 1. The inquisition : RELIGIOUS 2. Islamic extremists: RELIGIOUS 3. Prosperity Gospel pastors : RELIGIOUS 4. UA-cam guys like Ben Shapiro and Prager : RELIGIOUS Now that said … faithful people( I call them true Christians but there are also Muslims and others ) do exist … so in resume , Prager being such and such and having done such and such doesn’t necessarily mean religion is inherently bad … even a religious person that was bad but repented (Paul from the New Testament is the perfect example ) is still a good person in the eyes of God. We have a judge and executioner ,any religious person knows this and it’s up to them if they want to be truthful to themselves and God or liars … so please do not conflate the religious with the faithful they are NOT THE SAME AT ALL.
When will David admit he’s a covert homosexual? This 40 year old boy is contriving a “girlfriend and daughter” he doesn’t produce sperm did him and his boyfriend adopt? PakMan lied about his age he’s ostensibly born in March of 1983 he’s exactly 40 years old dressing tantamount to a surreptitiously homosexual 14 year old boy. NO INDUBITABLY HETEROSEXUAL MAN CAN BE A LEFTIST ITS PATENTLY IMPOSSIBLE! Only conservative bible-adhering men are HETEROSEXUAL. It’s an irrefragable fact.
It really is. I think it helps to show that on some issues everyone is a little closer than we think. Apart from supporting Trump, idk if he said a single thing that I disagree with. And that's very enlightening
About what? He sounds like another religious zealot to me, blaming everything he doesn’t like on people not believing in God . The Right is pushing for a theocracy so they can make over the country according to their religious dogma
No, he didn't. You're making a ridiculously black and white statement. If you had any sort of routine caution in your thinking, you would never make such a ridiculous statement without massive justification. There's no sign that your judgment can be relied upon.
No. He claimed to be agnostic on the issue and spent the next 10 minutes explaining why Trump was cheated of an election, in his view. What a dishonest way of arguing. "I'm reasonable and now I'll tell you why everything I say is right, no matter the true facts." Facts are not his friend unless it's to twist them to his advantage.
Now wait just a second. Let's take a moment and give a hand to Mr. Prager for being brave and coming on the David Pakman show. That takes honor and courage. As far as I am concerned, he has a new supporter in me for showing such courage!!!
@@bigboy4006Wow, that's refreshing. Its usually the progressives that do not want to debate a conservative. Good for you. Just like it has often been the progressives that unfriend people that speak or do anything conservatives do or say. lol. I am a center right independent, but I sadly lost a good friend who is very progressive. He is so emotional when it comes to politics. I miss the days when we don't care if our friends are liberal, conservative or in the middle. It shouldn't matter what political thoughts you have if you are good friends, or even casual friends. But it is what it is. These are the stupid times.
@@KieranTongThats hilarious. I myself am a former Conservative, and Progressives have always wanted to debate Conservatives, but it grows tiring to debate Conservatives because their arguments are paradoxical and circular.
@@KieranTongUnless one is a Truth-seeker, there is no interest in knowing the truth. This is what I find on the left: they're not concerned about getting to the truth on any subject. They have a hedonistic approach to everything. The world exists for their pleasure alone. Anyone coming in the way of their sensual desires is an enemy. You will notice they're most disturbed with topics like religion. This gives insight into why they detest traditional and conservative wisdom. It disturbs their conscience when moral rules are discussed. 😊
A fascinating interview David. What is the best thing about it is how both of you - something we don’t see often these days - show respect for each other’s views even while totally disagreeing, but also recognising there are some things you can each agree with the other on.
Dennis sees people moving away from ‘traditional’ values and thinks, “what’s wrong with people?” instead of asking, “what’s wrong with traditionalism that’s causing people to move away from it?”
There are so many things that are good for you that people deviate from, doesn’t make the problem the thing. Humans are the most fallible, it’s safe to say the problem is Us, especially if that thing has stood the test of time
David, this interview was not in the "goes horribly wrong" category. This was a thoughtful, intelligent discussion you led. You are a master at handling the opposing side.
@@davidanderson6055 Thanks for the reply. Good point, but I must disagree. I would offer that one aspect of leadership is good decision making - not only for yourself, but for those around you as well. Infidelity can have emotional and financial implications on your loved ones. Choosing to cheat on a significant other not only highlights your dishonesty and lack of caring, but it also demonstrates poor decision making. If you can cheat in your relationships, what other things are you willing to do... thanks again for the reply!
@@greaper123 Dont forget the person in a position of power being vulnerable to coercion, blackmail, etc if any currently unknown infidelity's were discovered by someone willing to exert those pressures.
@@notfiveo I don't believe in any God, but I disagree with your logic. If humans are the standard of "perfect", is it not possible for humans to purposefully create something that is designed to fail, or not be perfect. We(humans) do this all the time, could a perfect being not design something that is imperfect as well? Does God(Christian God) not actively/purposefully destroy things in the Bible? God did purposefully create the tree of knowledge, which was designed to ruin a perfect universe. The tree of knowledge could almost be viewed as a virus, that once eaten is unleashed upon the rest of the system(universe).

He starts off by asking Prager if he's insane if he thinks that Trump was cheated out of the 2020 election. This was far from a conversation between two grown ups. Pakman is a disengenuos manchild... "If you think the 2020 election was rigged, then you have failed my insanity test, and therefore anything legitimate you say for the next half hour can be dismissed as a moot point... because according to my test... you're insane!"
I guess it’s just inconceivable to this guy that a lot of people realized what a horror Trump was in his first term and decided not to give him a second one. When we vote, we win. Vote Blue in 2024. We need leaders in this country, not RULERS.
I just wish these halfwits from the Daily Wire wouldn't be so deathly afraid of debating guys like Pakman or Seder. There is so much golden content just waiting to happen.
@@jordantrujillo3324you must be joking right!? He won't even debate Steven Crowder! And this was not a debate, it was a conversation at best and that's only because despite trying really hard he couldn't make Denis look like a "crazy conspiracy nut conservative"!
@@jordantrujillo3324 Have you seen David’s behavior after this conversation? Calling Dennis disgusting and vile? I have never seen any Dailywire host do that to any of their guests - ever. Being nice and civilly disagreeing in their presence then the insults coming out after. And btw, Michael Knowles was on with him so that’s categorically false.
He doesn't push back nearly hard enough nor often enough. It's starting to really bother me because it just gives these whack jobs another platform to spout their nonsense.
David is a master , at side stepping every single question where he has no logical answer too. David : " Hey Dennis , let me ask you this " Dennis " Gives a great answer " David " Ok , I don't think we need to waste time on this question , my Gotcha didn't work again "
EXACTLY!! That's exactly what I was thinking the whole time i was watching. He didn't like the fact that the subject was changed, brings it back around and then wants to change it.
David Parkman is an incredibly talented interviewer. Edited to apologize and to point out that “Parkman” is an autocorrect and that David’s last name is actually Porkman. 💟
He’s way to nice to these fascists and doesn’t exactly punch back. (Full disclaimer: I wouldn’t be able to do a better job myself) But that’s why they agree to come on his show I guess.
I shall admit, that was a fantastic discussion. No personal attacks, granting each others facts for the sake of the argument, and so on. Well done to both of these gentlemen.
Not quite. D Prager just issued typical unsubstantiated MAGA BS. I mean condescendingly saying “IF I were a democrat that loved America”, like dems have to be qualified “IF” they love America - while fully half of republicans are calling for civil war or like racism, election fraud and insurrection, not willing to firmly denounce them!
100%. Respect and civility for each others time to speak, their points and their differences. Congrats David and Dennis - we need more interactions like this between both sides.
What did you guys watch that I missed? It was very civil to the point that only Mr Prager got his opinions across. Go back and see how many things he said completely unopposed or how much time he spent talking versus how much David spent talking. Mr Prager got David to agree to a lot of what he said or at least it went unchallenged.
So why do Republicans point to the fact that Trump had more votes in 2020 and lost as a reason for suspicion. There was so much disdain for Trump that it caused people like myself to vote for the first time. Trump is so remarkably polarizing, that he causes the voter turnout to increase.
Exactly. I knew people on the far left. The type who don't vote because they think both parties are evil who went out and voted for Biden because they thought Trump was THAT bad.
You are right, it's so lame. Due to the pandemic, the requirements for mail-in ballots were loosened and many more people voted from the comfort of their home. It's as simple as that. Another version of that stupid argument is "But my rallies were so much larger!"
It's like saying the Patriots went to the super bowl back to back years, scored more points the second year and still lost, so that means the game must have been rigged. It's an incredible form of logic that only Trump supporters can come up with.
I’m a staunch conservative, but very grateful to see a civil exchange between vastly different points of view. This is a template of how we can seek to understand each others that differ politically from us, but share the desire to see this country be the best it can be!
Yessss!!!! Let's have the conversation not just we said this and we are right. Let's talk and show receipts to show the truth and get to the bottom. My issue is the left tens to just say no I don't care what your facts say I found a research paper by some professor that said otherwise with no accreditation behind it
@@tg4480 there’s too much religious thinking in the world these days. The Jesus story exists to give us hope for an afterlife, not as a policy document.
This was a master class on how to conduct an interview. I think even Dennis was impressed by David's calm and respectful approach. I voted for the first time in 2020 against Trump, as I'm sure many did. He should never occupy the White House again! Wishing Larry Elder was a candidate and disliking Cris Christie said it all.
I hate how Dennis says there are both America “loving” and “hating” democrats without any sort of acknowledgment that there are people on the right who “hate” the America they live in right now that often doesn’t even try to the minimum for others. Kudos to David for having that kind of patience.
Anyway framing public sentiment toward America as a love/hate binary is a lazy habit. I love aspects of it, hate other aspects -who doesn't, _really_ ? From what I"ve seen it's usually white-haired people making this accusation, because it's based on outdated paranoia, as with the "Red Scare," and/or its' past use as a coercion tool for getting young men to join the military (or not dodge or protest the draft -to do so meant you "hated" America). But at some point too many people became ... I'll say it, WOKE ... to this silly version of peer pressure, that by the time 9/11 happened it was all too clear what a flimsy sentiment it was, with people who wanted to "prove" that they "loved" America doing so by having made-in-China American flags on their cars for a few years. Even if someone truly hates America a lot more than they love it, that doesn't mean they're a bad American; it could simply mean they wish they could live somewhere else but don't have the means to go, OR they know America just has yet to reach its' real potential.
my friend, there is a difference between hating/disliking the current political state of a country and hating/disliking the core values that said country was founded on and has stood by for 250 years.
Because Reps love their country's history and soul, not the situation Dems have put it in whilst many Dems just purely hate America, so, no. You're wrong.
With chess, the gender imbalance comes from the fact that the vast majority of chess players (more than 90%) are men. And the vast majority of people who are obsessed with chess and therefore become grandmasters is probably close to 99% men. That is why men perform so much better. There was one woman, Judit Polgar, who in the 90s became a top 10 chess player (overall not women's).
Massive evidence exists that nobody can actually show. I've lost so much respect for people I used to like in the last few years. Carolla, Rogan, Prager the list goes on and on..
Well, you see, what had happen was, all the evidence is super classified, much like hard evidence of aliens. In fact, they can only show it to you in the country's most secure SCIF, and only if you have the right clearance, which takes several years to obtain. But just beLIEve them, there is TON of evidence, that you refuse to see! *sarcasm
5:13 Denis: “I would cheat against a fascist.” That’s exactly what fascist would say (because they would falsely accuse their opponents of cheating to get into power). A lowercase democrat would never undermine the democratic process, because that ultimately would make it easier for fascists to get into power.
To me the problem with this argument is that it's easy to say that the correct thing to do was cheat so that Hitler lost, but it's easy to say that because it's hindsight bias. Nobody thought Hitler would do what he did when he was elected in 1929, so someone saying the election should be rigged because Hitler was a fascist was really just guessing. Rigging an election because you don't like a candidate (even if they may turn out to be the worst candidate in history) is still A a dangerous precedent to set.
Now hold on a minute. Let's take a moment and give a hand to Mr. Prager for being brave and coming on the David Pakman show. That takes honor and courage. As far as I am concerned, he has a new supporter in me for this courage.

Pakman ruins these segments with his "sanity check" nonsense. He invites people on who he knows question the legitimacy of the 2020 election, declared them insane by refusing to accept anything but a clear "no". In 2016, very many demcocrats would fail this "sanity check" if it was asked the other way around. In disingenuous and beneath him really.
What Dennis Prager was describing about the therapist convincing an individual with gender dysphoria that their gender identity is incorrect is essenctially conversion therapy. The job of the therapist is to navigate the gender dysphoria of the patient and determine if this patient meets the diagnostic criteria for the psychological disorder.
@@amelliamendel2227 of course not. They think they are "normal", and hence they could never be persuaded in the same way they think queer and trans people could be. That's it. That's the origin of their confidence in conversion therapy. We are "abnormal", and hence, can be brought back to the "norm" through treatment. And all the failures so far are because we didn't try hard enough.
@@tkat6442yep, pseudo-intellectualism for people that recently discovered that Abraham Lincoln was a Republican or that Frederick Douglass is, in fact, no longer alive.
The world needs more of this. Two people that disagree being civil to one another. Occasionally, even finding some common ground. I commend you, David, for having Dennis on to have this exchange.
I don't care for it being civil. Dennis pushes propaganda for children which is now shown in Florida schools with blatant lies in it. Fuck him. You would applaud civility while he rounds up "degenerates" into camps.
Disagree that civility is needed in this case. We're not talking about apples and oranges. Democrats want rights for people without regards for whether they personally believe in them or not. People like Prager want an environment that divorces us from our fundamental tenet of separation of church and state, and allows "MORAL HIGHGROUND" to supersede human beings rights in a free and secular society. Accepting equal footing here as "civil and friendly" means accepting the removal of rights based on religious biases which is exactly what the current establishment GOP would want from Americans.
"If you go to school, get married, and have kids you will be happier" Yeah that's really been working out for all the miserable divorced people paying child support. Dennis doesn't realize that not every human is like him and wants the same thing. Some people don't want kids, some people don't want to get married. That isn't a moral issue.
They cling to 'traditional marriage' but the Bible's marriages weren't love stories they were purchased brides, slave brides and extra wives (concubines) captured in battle. Also a slave owner could force marriage amongst slaves to make more slaves. Is that what Dennis meant by referring to biblical marriage? No, of course they have a more modern view of it now. Their thinking on marriage has evolved significantly since the days of King Solomon and his 500 wives. They also don't point out that divorce is destroying their fantasies of marriage bliss, not same sex marriage equality. They don't ban divorce in red States though. Wonder why? Speaking of unholy alliances, Representative Ms. Marjorie Taylor of Georgia has yet to drop 'Greene' from her name even though Mr. Greene divorced her, calling her an adulterer. Is that traditional of her? Ah, hypocrites...
Lol Democrats are NOT the left- they are center right. They just happen to be left of the extreme right but they are not actual left. David is not the left. He is a Democrat. The true left is Socialism and communism.
The mainstream left hates the Progressive Left than they do The right wing in thos country. And that's why they lose. And yeah- Trump is a fascist. Even his own would admit to that.
Not this kind of conversation that creates the impression of civility between two guys at opposite ends of the political spectrum but one of them, Pakman, does virtually nothing to challenge the egregious lies and distortions of his odious guest. Prager and his organization are purveyors of right-wing disinformation, historically warped commentaries and outright lies that undermine our nation and its fragile democracy. There's no point in having such a person on the show unless you're prepared to confront him with several key examples of how he does that.
I disagree with Pakman on quite a lot of things, and find him biased to the point of being nauseating..probably not unlike how many feel about Prager. However, I do think that when you take two intelligent people, even from clearly opposing sides, it brings out the best in both. With the echo chamber gone, the level of annoyance goes down for me almost immediately, assuming we are dealing with two people who are willing to listen and speak to each other respectfully.
@@dr.scanlan6112 That's not what happened in this conversation that was woefully lacking in many ways. See my comment above yours for more on why I think Pakman failed miserably in his engagement with Prager. Respect is fine, but failing to challenge outright lies and warped views just to appear collegial is doing a disservice to the audience.
I don’t like Davids politics but I appreciate this interview a lot. Exposing your audience to logical opposing arguments & differing views can only benefit everyone! FJB & lets MAGA!!
I’d rather not hear from fascists and fascist enablers at all, they know their ideas are not popular so that’s why they argue in bad faith to make them sound palatable. Prager’s UA-cam channel is CLEARLY anti-liberal propaganda to anyone outside the right wing brain rot cult. I wish David wouldn’t give any airtime to such a shitbag, but I do appreciate his work on opposing their propaganda.
I actually don’t. These people need to be shamed. They need their ideas destroyed. If you can do that with a smile on your face and sever pushback, so be it. But lending legitimacy by just letting BS linger in the air is ridiculous
My only issue with David debating is he never brings up that, or other blatant evidence. He kinda just wants a conversation, which is great but I wish David wanted to humiliate them, but it's smart he knows if he humiliates them, no right wing lunatic would go on his show
The Cyber Ninjas were operating in Maricopa County, AZ which I believe also had 3 (or even 4?) recounts. Not to be anal, I just happen to remember because I lived through that sh*t show.
This wasn't a conversation. This was Dennis tap dancing around literally every single topic, giving non-answers and throwing strawmen out desperately by the dozens.
That is why I appreciate David. He is real. He is not about an image or propaganda. I enjoyed this talk as it does bridge the Right and Left side of thought. Great content! I appreciate your take on things. 🤘
David is about image. Make no mistake. He's honest about half of the time and isn't the other half just to look good for his audience. For example, David claims he has no idea what a woman is. That is just for his audience.. If you listen to him, he claims he only dates women, and that he thought his partner, Hannah, was one of the most beautiful women he'd seen the first time he saw her without asking her if she was a woman. He knows what a woman is. He didn't ask her if she was a woman. It is what it is.
Good on you both for having a respectful talk about all these problems that (my opinion) delusional people have created and foisted on the rest of us. I would prefer to be completely isolated from the delusional people that I’m forced to live with and pay for their ridiculous life choices they’ve made. Then asked me to pay for..
Thanks for giving a fair interview. It is nice to see people from different sides have a conversation that you can actually learn from. This needs to be shown to the clowns over at TYT.
David: What do you think about this?
Dennis: Starts to answer..
David: I don't think we should spend our time on this
Lmfao I agree, David is the WORST and I have no idea why people think he’s intelligent. He’s rude and obnoxious, 30 minutes is not enough time in the first place… but to say you want “sanity check” and then avoids any response or questions from Prager
That's the point in any conversation where Pakman knows he's lost the point.
Pakman: I don’t have a answer. So we’ll let the people/audience decide.
-Yeah, leave it to Pakman’s Left wing audience that lives in a echo chamber decide.
@@breakerd1 Let's not overlook the fact that Pakman made this statement in response to Prager's "if one believes that Trump is a neo-n" scenario. He asked if the left would be morally bound to cheat if they believed this is true. Was Pakman supposed to counter by asking that if one believed that "Hillary should be locked up", would the right have been morally bound to cheat to keep her out of office? I agreed with plenty of Prager's points, but he was off in the woods here and Pakman was right to move on.
@breakerd1 I wish pakman did know more about the situation in other countries on trans issues cuz prager is exaggerating. There's not a ban to treat kids with gender dysphoria with gender affirming care. The most there is is extra precautions. Prager also left out that despite a trans women holding a national record, a cis woman still has her beat by nearly 500 lbs when it comes to the Guinness world record. You should look up Shaun's video on prageru and fatherhood. It exposes just how much of a bad faith liar prager can be.
Thank you David. It seems to me you conducted this interview with
respect for your guest as well as not giving up your principles. Much appreciated!
Watch him with Mike Pillow. Exceptional performance as an interviewer. I think TYT even shouted him out.@@ayylmao113

Really good conversation in good faith we need more of this nowdays 👏
Not really good faith when Prager keeps telling ridiculous lies about fictional things that happen in European countries
Referring to acknowledgment that the 2020 election results were valid, Praeger says, "I don't know what that gains us." It gains us confidence in our American electoral process and the overwhelming majority of civil servants - many of them Republican - who certified those results. It gains us the victory of evidence and the rule of law over partisan baseless claims. It gains us respect for the peaceful transition of power.
It gives us a baseline of reality where obvious lies are not accepted... It's pretty hard to be "agnostic" when one side had a clear plan from the beginning to lie, executed those lies, and then tried to overturn the election based on lies. And then they call themselves patriots yet me being on the other side have never felt so patriotic in my life standing up to them.
Yesyesyes!!!
Well said. Prager revealed that he is nothing but a pseudo-intellectual partisan hack. The evidence was presented to republican judges, and election results were certified by many republican officials. Prager is just like right wing media bcs he knows they would have done anything to find proof of dem election fraud, and they didn't.
...but the Left failed, so, no.
It seems wild to me that he would call his stance "agnostic" which I assume he means it makes no difference what the truth is. It either is or it isn't true. It's not like, say, religion where you can take an agnostic stance on whether god exists and could never be really proven one way or another. It would seem to encourage this idea that truth is relative to the right. They think arguing their points loudly enough and with enough conviction, and they can make anything the truth.
5 minutes into interview - Prager: “Aren’t you morally obligated to cheat if you believe Trump is a fascist?” Pakman: “look, we’re running out of time here let’s move on” lol 😭
That was funny
yup every liberal answer to any question that they know they’re just completely wrong 🤣
“UHH WHY DON’T WE MOVE ON / OK IM NOT GOING TO ARGUE WITH YOU” about something i know is wrong, so lets just ignore all the bullshit that i believe, and just bring it up when its convenient,
but people on the “right” they’re just blah blah blah, any excuse to not look like the liberal cunts they are.
If you think you’re so right about everything, why not stick to it, instead of running Everytime? 😮🤣
It's a good question, sloppily dodged by David "critical thinker" Packman
@@MrGgabber right, at least he doesn’t need to be told what he is to know it, unlike the liberal children of the corn 🤣
Don’t worry “your smart” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
why would you need to cheat against a fascist when all you have to do is point out all the unethical and unlawful actions that said fascist committed!!!! when someone cheats you in a boardgame does that mean that you have to cheat in order to win???? NO YOU CALL HIM/HER OUT FOR CHEATING!!!!!!!!
I commend David for having people like Dennis on. Conversing with people of different opinion makes for a much more meaning conversation, having discussed all sides of an argument.
Incredibly refreshing to witness people listening to each other.
Dude I know I'm starting to like Mr Pac-Man. Trying to get all sides to everything because it is annoying being in an algorithmic echo chamber of conservative saying the same shit every single day.
You are better than I am for interviewing him. I can't stand this guy.
Pakman is a jerk but he handled himself better this time.
What did he say about gender that you disagree with
@@danlopez.3592he thinks he knows all about gender to the point of not even recognizing children who feel different and perhaps are. His Mrknowitall really bothers me.
@@AnnettePaskiewicz you don’t need to be an expert to know that if a male feels like a girl then that is exactly what it it, a feeling. We need to be honest to kids as well as adults.
@@danlopez.3592 I don't care about his gender issues. I don't like his "university" minimizing slavery as a historical footnote and mis-characterizing present day racism.
I genuinely enjoyed the debate. Your ability to “think on your feet” AND keep the discussion civil far exceeded that which I am capable.
it was not a debate, an interview
@Somalicool_123girl yeah, very disappointed that David barely pushed back on any of Prager's bs.
"The first thing people have to do is recognize reality."
Okay Dennis, you're welcome to start any time.
Nazi Germany was a reality, does it make it a good reality? Woke culture is a reality, does it make it a good one? This statement is a terrible argument. Ask Target, or Absolut. Go Woke = Go broke. If the majority of people in the US stands for wokism, their posture’s not reflected on the Free Market. Recently there’s been really bad outcomes related to the cancelling culture on social media promoted by people like George Soros. Where does he get all his money BTW? 😂😂😂😂
Yes, agreed.
Speaking of which, where is the left winger mentioned in the title?
@@MarcillaSmith Implied. The left’s the one side of the political spectrum pushing the woke agenda. They tried it in films, sales dropped, they tried it on alcohol beverages, sales dropped and they keep trying it on both: mainstream and social media.
The Bible’ s pretty clear. There’s the King James version, you don’t have to learn ancient Arameic. Jesus (Yashúa) loves us, but love isn’t always saying what people wanna hear. 🙏🏽🥺
and then "I believe in God"
@@MarcillaSmithI suppose David has quite depressing takes on the US overton window and his media context might confirm that.
Sad he doesn't dare to speak from a progressive position or admit such opinions, if he has any
I've never watched David before. I want to commend him for his conduct in this discussion. I will listen to him more. I want to listen to people that lean in the opposite direction I do. Thank you David.
You have obviously never watched Mr. Packman before. He is known as one of the most bad faith debaters in history. The reason he can appear to be so apathetic is because Prager is such a good guest.
@@handonthegat2989nice try 🤡. Only bad faith actors say that.
@@handonthegat2989You sound incredibly balanced in your opinion 😂
I don't agree with Dennis on pretty much anything but it does help me reminisce on how politics used to be, just talking and not getting angry about things you disagree with. It maybe isn't perfect but it's a lot better than just yelling and disagreeing, it has a chance for a real exchange of ideas
No one had the echo chambers like they do now. They were pretty much forced to hear different views, and to get a pretty good civics education. When you are in an echo chamber, everything outside of it seems dangerous, so they feel they have to fight all the time, and are hysterical about everything.
It is called Tolerance.
Being agnostic is his way of knowing Trump lost but doesn’t want to say if ! Cop out!!!
Spoke with a lawyer
This is the answer that came out
@@sebsignat8286Spoke with a Lie-yer!
Touché
I can't believe he's saying that with how much of a religious zealot he tends to be portrayed as.
@@anotherks7297actually, that makes it way easier to believe that he would lie.
This type of conversational tone is the only way we can get out of the dangerous situation we are in. Great job guys.
Us Republicans have always been in favor of open discussion. We don't try to cancel anyone or hate ppl for their views.
But yes. It is dangerous for the left to try and control politics or classy ppl as extremists for being pro Maga. Or try to push queer education in public schools without parental consent.
Maybe the left can learn from these mistakes.
PragerU lost a huge fraction of its subscriber count ever since youtube crackdown on fake accounts. A fake university with fake subscribers. lmao

@@mtzmtz37I'm impressed how this went.
Great Job Dennis! David, not so much. he just changed subjects when cornered
I do appreciate you Mr Pakman for being one of the few to have these conversations.
There's alot of people on the left having these convos, Sam Seder, TYT, destiny (even tho i dont like him), john Stewart. i think its a right wing talking point that liberals don't like having debate
David you did great in this interview, I have listened Dennis since the 90s and you really respect your guests and your audience!!! God bless you !!!
Dennis believes in marriage so much he’s been married 3 times. What a champ.
Unless he discharged his brides for their adultery then he, according to Jesus, is himself an adulterer, not bound for Heaven. So why is he so obsessed with a club that rejected him 2,000 years ago? Guilt? Religious programming?
no, he is a squacking crow flapping his mouth for a false Judaism belief. A Jim Jones type fella of small intellect and no basis of reality@@Kastled5
Well you can't marry women since thwy are not loyal.
@@NoFreedoms-f1d Men aren't loyal either. Try again.
@@viol8r420 A lot more than women.
Didn't team Trump 'air' everything they could find? Plus a whole bunch of stuff they imagined or invented?
Absolutely. And Trump was just talking about doing so again to try and "clear his name." But HIS LAWYERS (and nearly everyone else with half a brain) talked him out of it. I wonder why?
Prager: “The first thing you have to do is accept reality.”
Also Prager: “I’m agnostic on the election results.. but GA maybe..”
Also also Prager: "I made a University. It's not a University though."
They should have respected ballot law laid down by the legislature.
He's not agnostic. No conservative can ever say straight out say that Biden won fairly. He has to do the song and dance of injecting doubt he doesn't really believe into the issue or be exiled like Cheney, kinzinger, and others and kiss his grift for $$ goodbye.
I love the confusion on Pakman's face when the answers given to his questions did not suit his Democrat biased views - Ha ha
How do you feel about making Florida Ban the Bible from religious schools? Since there’s 25 mentions of homosexuality in the Bible it should be removed from every classroom in the State of Florida, regardless of religious affiliation of the school. Also, God supposedly condemned slavery at least 3 separate times and was used to justify slavery in this country, it promotes the idea that men have the right to use violence as a method of control over women. It contains numerous references of sexual violence against women either expressly commanded, condoned, or threatened by God. The Bible promotes racism, genocide, and mass murder. There is a significant public interest to not promoting this book to children.
Also, if anyone’s concerned about a indoctrination here’s some numbers for you: from 1950-2020 (70 years) 330,000 children (that we know of) were abused by Catholic priests and around 80% of the victims were boys. In response, 848 priests were defrocked and 2,572 suffered lesser sanctions. Calling the church sex abuse scandal a “leprosy in our house,” Pope Francis tells an Italian newspaper that 1 in 50 Catholic clerics are pedophiles. Not were, ARE as in right now in 2023. Yes, the Pope stated publicly that 1 in 50 clerics are active child predators. Sunday school is literally grooming and indoctrination by definition, not to mention the word's etymology.
I'm interested in your opinion on this book that's unsuitable for children, should it be banned why or why not?
Chess, Equestrian, Sailing??? 😂😂😂 That’s world class mental gymnastics Pakman. And I love how when you hit a dead end in your argument you shift the conversation. You have become a pro at that. Doesn’t go unnoticed.
Typical lefty....
Listing off things that would not require separating genders. What's so confusing?
Or he says I don’t have the dada
@@PanthraxIV Who said I’m confused? And exactly he’s listing things where nobody cares what your gender is. The ones he doesn’t mention is where the rubber meets the road.
@@RandyCantu-zi9ek Yup that’s when you know he’s ducking.

@@patricklandon7476 I guess even 'progressives' can actually make progress 🤣🤣... eventually, in theory, the could even stop being progressives.

'we need to double down'... and we need more of your money to do it... a lot more. Most of them still think Marxism and Communism can work if they just give power to the 'right' people.

Great interview. Being able to push back on the issues while still retaining a civil and friendly atmosphere is a great skill. Well done.

Which push back? They barely even got to talk about anything of substance. Amazing that David can talk to Dennis and not press him on any of the horrendous things he has said in his long career

I was waiting for real push back but David didn't want to debate. Only the Left has suppressed free speech? Yet he says the president who called the press the enemy of the people was his kind of president.
Pakman crumbled
Prager was very good here
Dennis obviously doesn’t have a problem with adultery or infidelity. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able even look in the mirror.
Prager would conveniently worm his way out of your comment by simply stating something like "God put tempations in my path in order to have the opportunity to fail, learn and overcome. I repented so... still going to Heaven."
@@trevorstine8647 but .. doesn’t the Bible say “for all have sinned …”.
There isn’t anyone that hasn’t done something bad. Lying for example. I don’t think a person that has never told a lie even exists. As long as people repent and stop doing the same crap over and over the Bible says God forgives the people that confess and make a change 🤷
@@FactsMatter999 I don't know what the Bible says. The last time I read it, I was about 11 or 12. Understandably. that's around the time I stopped reading comic books. I can just predict how the loudest "Christians" defend their actions and positions over the course of my 49 years dealing with their illogic.
@@trevorstine8647 ok. But please allow me to clarify. Being religious and being a believer (Jesus called them “the faithful” )are two very different things. Jesus NEVER called any of his followers Christians. He called them “pistos” in the original Greek scriptures which means “the faithful”. There is a HUGE DIFFERENCE. If someone says I’m “faithful” (like a wife to a husband) then THEY HAVE TO BE otherwise it’s a lie in the eyes of God. Saying “I’m a Christian” is just a claim …let me give you an example… satanic rock band singer Tom Araya calls himself a CATHOLIC CHRISTIAN.., let that sink in. So of course people being out there doing crappy stuff while claiming to be religious do exist and have always existed duh?? That doesn’t undermine the fact there are TRUE faithful believers. So why am I giving you this lecture ?? Because all you secular , god hating people do not seem to grasp the difference between religious bad people (Jesus called out the Pharisees for being hypocrites) and good religious people (I call them faithful) … so I’ll clarify by giving examples:
1. The inquisition : RELIGIOUS
2. Islamic extremists: RELIGIOUS
3. Prosperity Gospel pastors : RELIGIOUS
4. UA-cam guys like Ben Shapiro and Prager : RELIGIOUS
Now that said … faithful people( I call them true Christians but there are also Muslims and others ) do exist … so in resume , Prager being such and such and having done such and such doesn’t necessarily mean religion is inherently bad … even a religious person that was bad but repented (Paul from the New Testament is the perfect example ) is still a good person in the eyes of God. We have a judge and executioner ,any religious person knows this and it’s up to them if they want to be truthful to themselves and God or liars … so please do not conflate the religious with the faithful they are NOT THE SAME AT ALL.
@FactsMatter999 So, No True Scotsman. Got it. 🙄
Great interview, David! Bring more right wingers on. It’s illuminating.
David Killed this slob in this interview. He just talked his bullshit and Parkman saw past that
Bring on Joe Rogan!
It’s more like humiliating for them because they are terrible
When will David admit he’s a covert homosexual? This 40 year old boy is contriving a “girlfriend and daughter” he doesn’t produce sperm did him and his boyfriend adopt? PakMan lied about his age he’s ostensibly born in March of 1983 he’s exactly 40 years old dressing tantamount to a surreptitiously homosexual 14 year old boy. NO INDUBITABLY HETEROSEXUAL MAN CAN BE A LEFTIST ITS PATENTLY IMPOSSIBLE! Only conservative bible-adhering men are HETEROSEXUAL. It’s an irrefragable fact.
It really is. I think it helps to show that on some issues everyone is a little closer than we think. Apart from supporting Trump, idk if he said a single thing that I disagree with. And that's very enlightening
Dennis is spot on!
About what? He sounds like another religious zealot to me, blaming everything he doesn’t like on people not believing in God . The Right is pushing for a theocracy so they can make over the country according to their religious dogma
Prager obliterated Pakman, revived him and then obliterated him over and over again.
He did if you believe everything he said.
The only thing Prager obliterates is reality.
No, he didn't. You're making a ridiculously black and white statement. If you had any sort of routine caution in your thinking, you would never make such a ridiculous statement without massive justification. There's no sign that your judgment can be relied upon.
Weird take
He did not exactly pass with flying colors on the sanity check!
😂
No. He claimed to be agnostic on the issue and spent the next 10 minutes explaining why Trump was cheated of an election, in his view. What a dishonest way of arguing. "I'm reasonable and now I'll tell you why everything I say is right, no matter the true facts." Facts are not his friend unless it's to twist them to his advantage.
Now wait just a second. Let's take a moment and give a hand to Mr. Prager for being brave and coming on the David Pakman show. That takes honor and courage. As far as I am concerned, he has a new supporter in me for showing such courage!!!
Ask if he believes in sky daddy.. if "yes" then crazy . Religion is fiction, all religion is cancer
Godsters never do.

You will notice they're most disturbed with topics like religion. This gives insight into why they detest traditional and conservative wisdom. It disturbs their conscience when moral rules are discussed. 😊
Yayyy Dennis.!!! U r so wise, edeucated & humble!!!
A fascinating interview David. What is the best thing about it is how both of you - something we don’t see often these days - show respect for each other’s views even while totally disagreeing, but also recognising there are some things you can each agree with the other on.
Dennis sees people moving away from ‘traditional’ values and thinks, “what’s wrong with people?” instead of asking, “what’s wrong with traditionalism that’s causing people to move away from it?”
Good question
He’ll never question it
Yup yup! His brain just doesn't function that way.
There are so many things that are good for you that people deviate from, doesn’t make the problem the thing. Humans are the most fallible, it’s safe to say the problem is Us, especially if that thing has stood the test of time
That requires a modicum of intelligence.
David, this interview was not in the "goes horribly wrong" category. This was a thoughtful, intelligent discussion you led. You are a master at handling the opposing side.

Religious guy says, "I see no issue in infidelity" .. That's interesting. How about those family values now, Sir?
He's talking about in terms of capability to lead. I may disagree with him, but he brought up some good points.
@@davidanderson6055 Thanks for the reply. Good point, but I must disagree. I would offer that one aspect of leadership is good decision making - not only for yourself, but for those around you as well. Infidelity can have emotional and financial implications on your loved ones. Choosing to cheat on a significant other not only highlights your dishonesty and lack of caring, but it also demonstrates poor decision making. If you can cheat in your relationships, what other things are you willing to do... thanks again for the reply!

@@notfiveo I don't believe in any God, but I disagree with your logic. If humans are the standard of "perfect", is it not possible for humans to purposefully create something that is designed to fail, or not be perfect. We(humans) do this all the time, could a perfect being not design something that is imperfect as well? Does God(Christian God) not actively/purposefully destroy things in the Bible? God did purposefully create the tree of knowledge, which was designed to ruin a perfect universe. The tree of knowledge could almost be viewed as a virus, that once eaten is unleashed upon the rest of the system(universe).
@marco12377 my idea is that an "all-loving", "all-knowing", "all-powerful" God could not create this reality for those three things to be true.

@@dennisgarage9028 Exactly, funny how Pakman kept changing the topic when the lefts logic was being trumped.
He starts off by asking Prager if he's insane if he thinks that Trump was cheated out of the 2020 election. This was far from a conversation between two grown ups. Pakman is a disengenuos manchild... "If you think the 2020 election was rigged, then you have failed my insanity test, and therefore anything legitimate you say for the next half hour can be dismissed as a moot point... because according to my test... you're insane!"
I am here for Dennis Prager ❤ Good conversation! 🎉 I really enjoyed this 😊❤
I guess it’s just inconceivable to this guy that a lot of people realized what a horror Trump was in his first term and decided not to give him a second one. When we vote, we win. Vote Blue in 2024. We need leaders in this country, not RULERS.

As intellectually dishonest as someone like Praeger is, I think opening kind dialogue and pushing back like David does is real progress.
Especially given the fact that one of Dennis’ talking points is that nobody from the left is willing to talk to him.
What a dishonest comment.
He doesn't push back nearly hard enough nor often enough. It's starting to really bother me because it just gives these whack jobs another platform to spout their nonsense.

I agree, well done
Not quite. D Prager just issued typical unsubstantiated MAGA BS. I mean condescendingly saying “IF I were a democrat that loved America”, like dems have to be qualified “IF” they love America - while fully half of republicans are calling for civil war or like racism, election fraud and insurrection, not willing to firmly denounce them!
100%. Respect and civility for each others time to speak, their points and their differences. Congrats David and Dennis - we need more interactions like this between both sides.
What did you guys watch that I missed? It was very civil to the point that only Mr Prager got his opinions across. Go back and see how many things he said completely unopposed or how much time he spent talking versus how much David spent talking. Mr Prager got David to agree to a lot of what he said or at least it went unchallenged.
I have never heard Dennis Prager before. He is a delightful man, however I don't agree with him very little of most subjects.
So why do Republicans point to the fact that Trump had more votes in 2020 and lost as a reason for suspicion. There was so much disdain for Trump that it caused people like myself to vote for the first time. Trump is so remarkably polarizing, that he causes the voter turnout to increase.
Exactly. I knew people on the far left. The type who don't vote because they think both parties are evil who went out and voted for Biden because they thought Trump was THAT bad.
EXACTLY! It was the biggest voter turnout in history! And not just for Trump! It's simple math!
You are right, it's so lame. Due to the pandemic, the requirements for mail-in ballots were loosened and many more people voted from the comfort of their home. It's as simple as that. Another version of that stupid argument is "But my rallies were so much larger!"
It's like saying the Patriots went to the super bowl back to back years, scored more points the second year and still lost, so that means the game must have been rigged. It's an incredible form of logic that only Trump supporters can come up with.
The right is incapable of imagining any reality outside their own viewpoint as valid.
A calm conversation is nice to see. Even if one disagrees with Dennis ... Or David... Just glad they had a calm, respectful conversation.
At first glance I read the title as "Uh-oh Dennis Prager agrees with left wing progressive". Dang I don't know if I want to watch it now.

This dinosaur believes belief in God has an effect on morality.
I hate how Dennis says there are both America “loving” and “hating” democrats without any sort of acknowledgment that there are people on the right who “hate” the America they live in right now that often doesn’t even try to the minimum for others. Kudos to David for having that kind of patience.
Anyway framing public sentiment toward America as a love/hate binary is a lazy habit. I love aspects of it, hate other aspects -who doesn't, _really_ ? From what I"ve seen it's usually white-haired people making this accusation, because it's based on outdated paranoia, as with the "Red Scare," and/or its' past use as a coercion tool for getting young men to join the military (or not dodge or protest the draft -to do so meant you "hated" America). But at some point too many people became ... I'll say it, WOKE ... to this silly version of peer pressure, that by the time 9/11 happened it was all too clear what a flimsy sentiment it was, with people who wanted to "prove" that they "loved" America doing so by having made-in-China American flags on their cars for a few years.
Even if someone truly hates America a lot more than they love it, that doesn't mean they're a bad American; it could simply mean they wish they could live somewhere else but don't have the means to go, OR they know America just has yet to reach its' real potential.
my friend, there is a difference between hating/disliking the current political state of a country and hating/disliking the core values that said country was founded on and has stood by for 250 years.
@@johnglinkBoth the Left and Right have reasons to assert that America is losing its' grip on core values .... but totally different ones.
It wasn’t democrats that tried to overthrow the government, if he’s looking for people who hate that government
Because Reps love their country's history and soul, not the situation Dems have put it in whilst many Dems just purely hate America, so, no. You're wrong.
With chess, the gender imbalance comes from the fact that the vast majority of chess players (more than 90%) are men. And the vast majority of people who are obsessed with chess and therefore become grandmasters is probably close to 99% men. That is why men perform so much better. There was one woman, Judit Polgar, who in the 90s became a top 10 chess player (overall not women's).

5:13 Denis: “I would cheat against a fascist.” That’s exactly what fascist would say (because they would falsely accuse their opponents of cheating to get into power). A lowercase democrat would never undermine the democratic process, because that ultimately would make it easier for fascists to get into power.
To me the problem with this argument is that it's easy to say that the correct thing to do was cheat so that Hitler lost, but it's easy to say that because it's hindsight bias. Nobody thought Hitler would do what he did when he was elected in 1929, so someone saying the election should be rigged because Hitler was a fascist was really just guessing. Rigging an election because you don't like a candidate (even if they may turn out to be the worst candidate in history) is still A a dangerous precedent to set.
Meanwhile WANNABE DICKTATOR -trumpo KNOWS he Himself is a FASCIST- and why he likes to call everyone else one.

What Dennis Prager was describing about the therapist convincing an individual with gender dysphoria that their gender identity is incorrect is essenctially conversion therapy. The job of the therapist is to navigate the gender dysphoria of the patient and determine if this patient meets the diagnostic criteria for the psychological disorder.
So... every accusation is a confession?
Of course. But he's a know-nothing dressed up and posturing as an intellect. What a joke.
Absolutely correct. What he’s advocating is literal conversion therapy. It’s never worked in history. That’s why therapists don’t do it. It’s cruel.

The common ground they found was just Packman getting cucked. Prager compromised on nothing and Packman sold out trans people.
I don't care for it being civil. Dennis pushes propaganda for children which is now shown in Florida schools with blatant lies in it. Fuck him. You would applaud civility while he rounds up "degenerates" into camps.
Disagree that civility is needed in this case. We're not talking about apples and oranges. Democrats want rights for people without regards for whether they personally believe in them or not. People like Prager want an environment that divorces us from our fundamental tenet of separation of church and state, and allows "MORAL HIGHGROUND" to supersede human beings rights in a free and secular society. Accepting equal footing here as "civil and friendly" means accepting the removal of rights based on religious biases which is exactly what the current establishment GOP would want from Americans.
I agree. And they even exchanged jokes. That’s awesome.
"If you go to school, get married, and have kids you will be happier"
Yeah that's really been working out for all the miserable divorced people paying child support. Dennis doesn't realize that not every human is like him and wants the same thing. Some people don't want kids, some people don't want to get married. That isn't a moral issue.
He was so happy being married, he did it 4 times 🤣
He wants to control people
They cling to 'traditional marriage' but the Bible's marriages weren't love stories they were purchased brides, slave brides and extra wives (concubines) captured in battle. Also a slave owner could force marriage amongst slaves to make more slaves. Is that what Dennis meant by referring to biblical marriage? No, of course they have a more modern view of it now. Their thinking on marriage has evolved significantly since the days of King Solomon and his 500 wives. They also don't point out that divorce is destroying their fantasies of marriage bliss, not same sex marriage equality. They don't ban divorce in red States though. Wonder why? Speaking of unholy alliances, Representative Ms. Marjorie Taylor of Georgia has yet to drop 'Greene' from her name even though Mr. Greene divorced her, calling her an adulterer. Is that traditional of her? Ah, hypocrites...

Not this kind of conversation that creates the impression of civility between two guys at opposite ends of the political spectrum but one of them, Pakman, does virtually nothing to challenge the egregious lies and distortions of his odious guest. Prager and his organization are purveyors of right-wing disinformation, historically warped commentaries and outright lies that undermine our nation and its fragile democracy. There's no point in having such a person on the show unless you're prepared to confront him with several key examples of how he does that.
I disagree with Pakman on quite a lot of things, and find him biased to the point of being nauseating..probably not unlike how many feel about Prager. However, I do think that when you take two intelligent people, even from clearly opposing sides, it brings out the best in both. With the echo chamber gone, the level of annoyance goes down for me almost immediately, assuming we are dealing with two people who are willing to listen and speak to each other respectfully.
@@dr.scanlan6112 That's not what happened in this conversation that was woefully lacking in many ways.

I actually don’t. These people need to be shamed. They need their ideas destroyed. If you can do that with a smile on your face and sever pushback, so be it. But lending legitimacy by just letting BS linger in the air is ridiculous
"opposing views" 😂 cognitive dissonance is an ignorant view not an opposing view.
When David says "I just don't find this interesting" it really means "I have no rebuttal". Just so thats clear to everyone.
When you say "it really means..." that's you attempting to mind read. Just so thats clear to everyone.
Georgia had 3 recounts and a Cyber Ninja recount that found more votes for Biden 😂
My only issue with David debating is he never brings up that, or other blatant evidence.
He kinda just wants a conversation, which is great but I wish David wanted to humiliate them, but it's smart he knows if he humiliates them, no right wing lunatic would go on his show
That actually encouraged their assumptions though...
Not to mention…IT WAS TRUMP THAT CHEATED IN GEORGIA….hence the f ing charges?????…these people are stark raving bonkers

Love Dennis Prager. He is so wise! A national treasure. ❤
Great discussion! Both were refreshingly cordial. Great thumbnail picture..both of them are smiling. David has the patience of a saint.
This wasn't a conversation. This was Dennis tap dancing around literally every single topic, giving non-answers and throwing strawmen out desperately by the dozens.
Wow, Prager says he is going to give a simple answer then rambles on for five minutes on the most convoluted rabbit trail!!!
And on, and on, and on...,.into a dark fog !!!
That is why I appreciate David. He is real. He is not about an image or propaganda. I enjoyed this talk as it does bridge the Right and Left side of thought. Great content! I appreciate your take on things. 🤘
David is awesome!!!
David is about image. Make no mistake. He's honest about half of the time and isn't the other half just to look good for his audience. For example, David claims he has no idea what a woman is. That is just for his audience.. If you listen to him, he claims he only dates women, and that he thought his partner, Hannah, was one of the most beautiful women he'd seen the first time he saw her without asking her if she was a woman. He knows what a woman is. He didn't ask her if she was a woman. It is what it is.
Prager on the other hand is a far right conservative propagandist and disseminator of disinformation.
This was in much better faith than Sam Seder. But is David genuine? I kind of find it hard to believe...
The right did air their complaints. They did so in court, and lost every single time.
Complaining they are being treated unfairly is the common strategy to shift/lift the blame.
Wrong,for the most part the courts wouldn't even let them air their case in court citing "Lack of standing" wtf do you get your information?
@@JimmyfromPhilly1 I get my info from impartial sources, not your propaganda.
Agnostic in this case is 'what about both sides'. Someone being agnostic (silent) to Nazism is basically compliance.
His "agnosticism" is simply to beg the question "how can man abandon god or Trump when they should be worshipped."
I have learned everything I know from PragerU. I also eat crayons.
😂
You should try lead paint chips. A maga favorite!
@David-jq8jtmy brother and 2 nephews have been Marines and they don't eat crayons. Does your crayon-eating Marine have a brand preference?
Purple is the best flavor
Always eat your greens
I like Dennis but don’t think much of David, he seems disingenuous and not a good faith person to me, just my opinion.
David asks a question,
Dennis starts to answer
David interrupts, we running out of time😂
@zippy3984it's only "dumb" when it occurs to the other side. 🙂
There is no way you watched the whole interview, yet have no problem lying about it. Thats a problem with todays debate.
Typical lefty.
You have to interrupt when someone saying consecutively vague or biased things.
Good on you both for having a respectful talk about all these problems that (my opinion) delusional people have created and foisted on the rest of us. I would prefer to be completely isolated from the delusional people that I’m forced to live with and pay for their ridiculous life choices they’ve made. Then asked me to pay for..
“I don’t know if this is the most interesting thing for us to talk about”
every time there’s a topic David doesn’t feel confident debating
Yes because all his knowledge is based on fiction. If he gets confronted with reality, he has no arguments
That is about the best you can hope for out of a Liberal. Marginal civility is all he can muster. The next day, he'll be back to his old self.
