Twitter leftist: I want landback, I want decolonization, I want to end capitalism, by any means necessary! Except the media must remain untouched, and no one from the bourgeoisie must he harmed in any way. People like Lenin and Castro did that and they're all evil authoritarian dictators.

Nathan Fielder: Okay.

    I can't say what his actual views are on the matter, but I think there was two jokes there. One was about the generational split in the Jewish community on the matter, it's not universal but the younger generation is much more pro palestine (at least from jews I know in canada) and have to do a "well it's complicated" thing with their family. What he might also be going for is that the show for him is a professional environment, so sort of the relatable thing of your coworker going off on something you disagree with them about, and you having to do a very non-committed take out of fear of it harming your livelihood.

      Not only that, but earlier in the episode he talked about being a pushover.
