Fairly early on in the discussion, Harris is talking about how he supposedly never tells a lie, not even to his 10 year old daughter, although he does conceal facts from her that she doesn't need to know. For example, there exists a certain guerilla organization/theocratic proto-state that was known at the time for systematically carrying out horrific acts against women and children, She doesn't need to be burdened with that knowledge at that age so he withholds it from her.
But see what he just did there? The very thing he said his own kid is too young to hear, he just blurted out. That would mean by his own standards their conversation is inappropriate for children. So perhaps he himself asked Weinstein to age-restrict the video so as not to be a hypocrite.
- konschubert 5y agoOkay that makes sense, thank you.
- amadeuspagel 5y agoI doubt that explanation. I haven't watched that video, but I doubt it includes a graphic description of the acts of that organization, which I guess is the part that you wouldn't want children to know. And a child that's able to browse the internet freely can learn easily see way more horrible things. Apart from that, it says that the video is restricted "according to community guidelines", which seems to imply that someone enforcing community guidelines and not the creator restricted the video.
