Watch Jordan Peterson’s face as Sam Harris SLAMS Elon Musk

American philosopher, neuroscientist, author, and podcast host Sam Harris might have once called Elon Musk a friend, but his opinions of the billionaire have since changed following Musk’s purchase of Twitter.

Harris shared his criticisms with Jordan Peterson on a recent episode of Peterson’s podcast.

“Elon used to be a friend, ... [but] his engagement with Twitter has been catastrophic for him as a person,” Harris said.

Harris went on to claim that Musk “was so addicted to [Twitter] that he felt he needed to buy the platform,” that his use of Twitter/X has “massively signal-boosted the profiles of anonymous, QAnon, lunatic trolls,” and finally that his involvement in X has led to the “obvious degradation of his reputation in most circles.”

While Peterson doesn’t interrupt Harris’ tirade, his face seems to suggest that he doesn’t share the same sentiments as he looks at Harris with a puzzled expression.

Dave Rubin, for one, certainly doesn’t agree with Harris.

“My position is obvious,” he says. “The guy has bought this thing because he has been defending free speech; it's what he spends all day long talking about on the platform.”

“I think it's a pretty dim view to say he bought Twitter because he was addicted to Twitter. ... He bought something that is allowing us to see more truth,” Rubin adds, even if that means “there might be more mean people on there.”
