  1. David Heinemeier HanssonPositiveAug 26, 2026· Lex Fridman Podcast

    X currently has less ideological harassment than before.

    “And that's not to say that X is some sort of perfect place, that there aren't firing squads occasionally there, there aren't, but there's less of it.”

  2. Joe RoganMixedJul 2, 2026· The Joe Rogan Experience: Protect Our Parks

    Distrust in traditional news has caused X to become a primary news source.

    “And that's why X has become the news. The reason why it's become the news is. Because they can't trust the news.”

    X contains substantial misinformation, including miscaptioned videos presented as current events.

    “But then you go to X and it's just filled with horseshit. There's so much lies. There's always video of something happening. And they're saying, this is going on right now.”
