Viewing this as somebody who has not really been keeping up to date with Kanyes slow decline in popularity and quick ascent in controversy the one who comes away from this the best to me is Lex Fridman.

To have read Ye's tweet and decide that, instead of writing an enraged response on twitter that would have no doubt garnered him lots of support, but instead sit him down, have a conversation with him (and not yield ground when they butted heads), and give him a platform probably knowing he'd get attacked for it is admirable. It reflects incredibly on him.

I'm still digesting Kanye's arguements and what he said and why he said it, so I can't comment on that. What I can comment on is that I am grateful for Lex for providing me the oppurtunity to hear the full story in such an engaging and meaningful way.
