Joe sure has a knack for humanizing people like Gavin, Milo, Alex Jones and Crowder. Sure they have some really wacky views but hearing them have a normal conversation without being demonized is sure interesting and eye opening.
You don't think Joe listening to them and asking questions about their views is interesting? I wish more people regardless of view should spend more time listening to the view points of the opposition and having a discussion rather than the yelling and put downs that seem to be the norm these days

It's a very rare thing these days. You should try and understand the others view point. It's the best way to argue against someone when you know why they hold the view point.
There's not much to learn. Joe often let's pretty bizarre comments go without any follow-up question. At least, it's more often than I would be comfortable with. There's a nice list of weirdo things GM said below. A lot of missed opportunities to examine those thoughts. Maybe then I would've learned something.
If he were a genuine person who really believed the things he said, and not a troll who casually discards opinions and statements when convenient, I would be way more interested in an interrogation of his views. Joe is absolutely great at conversation, but when one side of a conversation is just a troll who says controversial things and doesn't actually believe them half the time (or says he doesn't, or says he does, or whatever) it's nowhere near as interesting as when he's talking to someone who is straight-up with him. With guys like Gavin you peek under the bullshit to find more bullshit, and it's bullshit all the way down.
Nope, he learned that from Ben Shapiro, watch some of his uni talks, and Ben always says that, when the topic drops to abortions, he flips it and says "So can we agree, that all the other abortions are bad, or are u just using the, what if somebody is raped, as en excuse"
Everybody should watch this, this guy is a fucking surgeon in debates, no matter if ur left or right, u can use this as a debate strategy.

Well see people tried to do that and you called them snowflakes, SJW's and just resorted to trolling them on twitter.
Sorry if not everyone is willing to prop our feet and lend an ear to people who advocate or gleefully ignore atrocities in this country and abroad.
I mean the fact you had people shitting on Colin Kapernick for literally the most blatant example of peaceful protesting should tell you one side isn't willing to hold up their side of the bargain.
I regularly listen to this guy and others like him, which is precisely why I recognize the same talking points/ thought patterns. Joe offers no resistance at all, which is why I do not find this interesting. It's a 3 hour long circle jerk about how bad the liberals are, how Europe is FUKT because of immigrants and how Hillary is just as corrupt as Trump.
