It depends on what you want from the conversation. If you want to "win" and have the other person look bad and you look good, Piers' way might be better. If you want to "win" and come away from the conversation with a mutual understanding and a positive relationship, Lex's way is probably better.

[@ethanstump]

@@WanderTheNomad but few people actually want to live like that, making people look bad, and generally they don't actually like it, coming from someone who has done that. that being said, i often do think it's a false dichotomy, to believe that it's either possible to foster positive relationship's, or to be correct. you can be both or neither at the same time, you can be correct and respectful, or correct and disrespectful, and generally i do believe that more people will examine their belief's when they don't feel disrespected. that being said, i do believe some people are too far gone, and even with being logical and respectful, there are some people you just won't reach. but if you have a decent mix of both, you will be far more effective than if you are just logical, or just loving.

I love this video! Thank you for sharing these tips. I am curious though, whether these tips would work in an argument with someone who seems to be narcissistic? My experience is that I tried start soft, speaking calmly, identifying the problem, not attacking the person, agreeing with them when appropriate, yet I always “lose”, have to apologize/ make them feel better and extend my empathy. But instead of receiving the same level of empathy I gave, I got shamed, and accused, etc. 😢 At some point, I actually spelled it out “Could you please have some empathy for me” and their response was “I’m not going to have any empathy, and thanks to you.” And that was the end of the conversation.

One thing to keep in mind is that hate isn’t a lack of love. It’s not like a void of it, that’s what apathy is. He might be lashing out hatefully, but it’s coming from a point of passion. Even if his hate is fixated on the wrong things. You cannot truly win an argument against a person you don’t understand. Having the capacity to empathize where your opponent is coming from is one of the strongest tools you can have in a debate. Your goal in an argument isn’t to crush your opponent but to lift them to your understanding, because you can’t win someone over by alienating them.

[@yogawithdenise]

Wow, what a breakdown…bravo!👏🙌👏 ❤️Lex!! Perhaps Ye will emerge a better human after all this.🤞🏼

[@mrmustangman]

i doubt it.... he's a 🐖

[@mochaest1994]

thank you for breaking down his interviews because they certainly had me perplexed, and thank you for donating to charity!

Learning communication skills from Kanye West is like learning safe driving from a drunk driver

[@JT0007]

Forget how he says it. What he’s saying could be true. 🇺🇸

[@ashshawon6840]

In this vid, we're not learning from him. It's Lex who we're learning from

[@lizzybennet5726]

Or... The concept of self-control from a crackhead.

[@JD..........]

@@JT0007 Yes, because he repeats things he's heard from other people. You appreciate Tiger Woods for his golf genius, not his relationship skills. Just 1 ex.

[@barbarossa9591]

Drunk drivers best drivers

[@sulken]

Thanks for this video...Language and demeanor are powerful when it comes to how people receive and understand eachother.

[@radfoo72]

Piers put on weight and got a bad haircut but he's still as pompous as ever😆

[@stlouisix3]

I pray that Kanye West becomes a Catholic☦️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿✝️

[@Valencetheshireman927]

Christianity Catholic or Protestant could help him. He’s definitely having a difficult time.

[@stlouisix3]

Yes, Kanye West needs to convert to Christianity☦️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✝️ Lex too, he's a lovely chap but even Lex needs to follow to God of Israel, who is The Jesus Christ of Christianity☦️👑✝️

[@dizasteroid7]

There is enough pedophiles and idol worshippers in this world. No need to make more.

[@HeavyMetal-jy4vj]

He is how he is because of Black Zionism I think its called or Black Hebrew something like that which is a cult. I think it added to his craziness.

[@bradojacko8247]

Lex is a manipulator. It is kind of smarmy the way he tries to manipulate Kanye as his 'friend', regardless of what the heck Kanye believes. We can disagree with Kanye, but his delivery is honest where lex has ulterior motives.

[@Cheekiemoney]

I mean you may not like what Kanye is saying but the majority of media is JM 🤷🏻 Not a good or bad, just a fact

[@Epiphalactic]

His point is that the words are loaded with negative connotation, akin to propaganda.

[@BMW1x1]

Wow! Lex that was amazing and I have taken notes!

[@igorabdoaguilar9331]

This video is one of your best so far! been following your work since 2019. Learned a lot so far. This type od de-escalation and finding mutual agreement, common ground is probably what we are needing the most the contemporary landscape of discussions. Thanks for the content

[@namraolib5391]

when kanye worth 2 billion dollars,his become so boostful,,at the time when he was broke he cried so loud and asking for help,,,,

[@chillokapi5225]

Phenomenal. My mind is more open now after watching this. Thanks for this

[@rodolforenoparra3404]

Remaining stoic is either a skill or genetics... Since all emotions are controlles by especific chemicals, if they dont work the you dont feel that much and its easier formyou be like that

[@WilliamJonesChess]

Key Moments Notes = big moments from the video. Square brackets are my own thoughts. 1:20 Its tough, man. Its tough. I hear you. I hear you. 2:26 Use a calm voice to explain yourself. Lex says 'With all due respect' then ends with 'I have to push back' [This is such a professional way to handle this argument. ] 3:40 Lex got so angry when he said JM. Wow. 4:07 [I wonder if Lex has said the following phrase before to disarm a situation: 'It is funny how this world works.' I wonder if this phrase is pre-planned for difficult conversations just as a way to take a step back. ] Fascinating phrase. 4:33 Mr Bean: do not negatively label the whole person 4:55 well put, I agree, I agree. Give out positive feedback to build rapport Do not keep positive thoughts to self, and negative thoughts out loud 5:53 You are under a lot of attack. A lot of attack. [Nice to repeat a phrase back to a person to ensure they are being heard] You have a vision [ This is such a positive thing to say. It forces Kanye to like Lex] 6:05 It is a wonderful life though. [Does Kanye mean this? It did not sound real] 6:24 Be vulnerable when you feel a negative emotion 'This is silly coz u don't know me. But it hurt when you said you don't trust me. You lost me.' [This was such an interesting moment in this video. Even I felt hurt when this happened. Maybe because this comment is attacking Lex's overall identity. Maybe Lex sees himself as a trusting person] 7:10 Nice moment: Or I could be opening up conversations with new friends I may trust some day. 9:18 A great man still through the pain does the right thing [ Hey, that rhymes!] These are my top moments from this video. How about you? What were your top moments?

[@DrewRueDoo]

Kanye emotionally peaked at 12 years old.

[@MrGhoulie]

I honestly can't stand Morgan. He always has such a pretentious demeaner about him. You can tell he goes into every debate with a closed mindset with the intention of just destroying the other person's opinion. There is almost no communication in any Piers debate. He constantly talks over people, interrupts, changes the subject, and twists words. He proves it in this video when he says, "I'm the interviewer you're on my show". The whole point of being an interviewer is to let the other person talk! Watching his interviews with Andrew Tait and Kanye made me like Taite and Ye even more.

[@mrmustangman]

he only wants to rile people up for the sake of getting an elevated response out of them.... he cares nothing for anybody but himself and clickbait clicks....

[@YesPlease1]

How is Piers Morgan a professional interviewer? God, these two clips of him at the beginning are atrocious

[@123rockfan]

A bit disappointing how this channel just talks about celebrities for examples

[@AlismonitesPatrides]

Wow. Lex is strong!

[@devinmartin2098]

So basically this video explains how lex is truly wise as a serpent and manipulative.... got it 👍

[@arslongavitabreves]

Tbh I've never knew anything about this Lex guy, never even watched any of his videos. But just as soon as I finished watching this, I subscribed to the man. He deserves my highest respect.

[@jamieknapp]

BIG PROPS on the charity water donation ❤❤

[@maudelagarza4972]

Congratulations on making such a great video on such an amazing conversation. It's a quick guide on getting better in conversations which will make you a better human. This video should be considered before every interview.

[@nodaysback1]

9:17 This is Beautiful.. Thank you Lex and Ye for teaching and illustrating to me that this can be done! It's a Good Thing. And Thank you Charisma On Command for highlighting this excerpt of their conversation. If mainstream content predominantly carried this tone and sentiment, it would have a very positive influence.

[@andreasv9472]

Be careful taking these tips with a narcissist. Empathy will be the end of you.

[@themightypen1530]

Lex is the GOAT.

[@robpolaris7272]

You can’t communicate with Kanye once he gets going, all he can hear is himself.
