Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1301 Scott Adams： Does Our Corrupt FDA Kill More People Than Governor Cuomo Touches Inappropriately？

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, come on in, come on in, you're just in time.

00:00:10.600 It's time for Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:13.540 Yes, I'm accidentally doing a Mr. Rogers taking off my sweater at the beginning of the broadcast.

00:00:21.180 Wish I'd planned it, but I didn't.

00:00:23.240 So, we've got one of the best live streams, maybe of all time, really.

00:00:32.800 If you were to look at all the live streams that have been broadcast in the last 15 billion years,

00:00:40.380 this one, best one, yeah, of the entire 15 billion years span, best one.

00:00:49.100 I know it's amazing.

00:00:50.140 And all you need to make it better is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice stand,

00:00:53.140 a canteen jug of glass, a mess of any kind, filling with your favorite liquid.

00:00:57.020 I like coffee.

00:00:58.700 Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine here today, the thing that makes everything better.

00:01:04.240 It's called the Simultaneous Sip, and it's going to happen now, all over the world, at the same time.

00:01:11.180 Thus, Simultaneity.

00:01:13.240 Go!

00:01:17.460 Ah.

00:01:17.900 Well, whoever's taking a bong hit, I just see in the comments, good choice, good choice.

00:01:26.880 Well, let's talk about all the news, shall we?

00:01:31.100 Ex-CIA head John Brennan said on MSNBC that he's, quote,

00:01:36.820 I'm increasingly embarrassed to be a white male these days.

00:01:41.440 He's embarrassed to be a white male.

00:01:45.520 Well, John, I'm a white male, and I'm a little bit embarrassed, too.

00:01:51.840 A little bit embarrassed.

00:01:53.600 Maybe not for exactly the same reasons as you, but I have to say I feel it.

00:01:58.240 I do feel it.

00:02:00.740 Of course, in my case, it's being caused by John Brennan.

00:02:04.500 But I've been told that I can take credit and also the blame for what total strangers do who happen to share any pigmentation with me.

00:02:15.340 So, if there's anybody who's also white who's committing a crime right now, well, that's on me.

00:02:24.160 If there's anybody white that I've never met and never will who's inventing something cool, I take the credit for that.

00:02:33.220 Why?

00:02:33.860 Obviously, similar pigmentation.

00:02:36.600 Why wouldn't I take credit for the work of strangers if they have similar pigmentation?

00:02:42.760 That's just logical.

00:02:45.640 Well, IKEA is selling a tiny pre-built home that comes on its own sort of trailer situation.

00:02:52.960 They'll pull it right up to your plot of land, and there you've got a little home.

00:02:57.700 Now, people said to me, what's so special about that, Scott?

00:03:00.600 We've always had mobile homes.

00:03:03.280 IKEA making one isn't that different, is it?

00:03:06.600 But you'd have to see it.

00:03:07.900 It's very window-centric.

00:03:09.620 Instead of a classic mobile home that's more metal-sized and little windows, it's sort of open.

00:03:17.460 You know, it's window-y.

00:03:19.120 And if they got the insulation right, I don't know if they did, but if they did, for $47,500, you could have a tiny home with one tiny bathroom and a bedroom, etc.

00:03:32.760 Now, the big deal, I think, is that companies like IKEA are getting into it.

00:03:38.520 But I still think the big win, and where this is going, think of this price.

00:03:43.860 Think of this price.

00:03:44.860 Let's say rounded to $50,000.

00:03:46.900 Suppose, in a few years, Apple Computer gives you this option.

00:03:55.280 You could have a home that's worth, let's say, $100,000 to build, so something twice as good as this.

00:04:03.120 Maybe better than twice as good by then.

00:04:04.920 So it's twice as good, and it's free.

00:04:10.100 And it's made by Apple Computer, so it's high quality, right?

00:04:14.180 It's just free.

00:04:15.980 It costs $100,000.

00:04:17.700 If they were going to sell it on the market, probably it would cost you maybe $200,000 to buy it.

00:04:23.640 They give it to you for free.

00:04:25.100 But you have to use Apple products as long as you live there, all of them.

00:04:31.680 So if you're going to have Wi-Fi, you get it from Apple.

00:04:35.160 If you're going to have a phone service, you get it from Apple.

00:04:37.920 If you're going to have a laptop, you get it from Apple.

00:04:42.240 And Apple makes its money by just forcing you into their system,

00:04:48.440 and they don't even care if you pay nothing for rent.

00:04:51.140 You might pay some energy costs, maybe to Apple, maybe to Tesla.

00:04:56.920 Maybe it's a Tesla house.

00:04:58.960 Give it to you free, and all you have to do is pay for electricity

00:05:01.940 or pay for the Tesla products, let's say,

00:05:05.900 so you wouldn't be paying for the electricity directly.

00:05:08.660 I think that's where it's going, and maybe this is the first sign.

00:05:13.240 All right.

00:05:14.360 There is yet another study showing that one dose of the coronavirus vaccine,

00:05:24.180 and I don't think it matters which one you get at this point,

00:05:26.980 that one dose will give you something like 80% effective protection

00:05:32.600 from hospitalization for serious problems.

00:05:37.300 80%.

00:05:37.820 Now, if they give you the second dose, that gets into the mid-90s or higher, right?

00:05:42.080 So here's a question I asked.

00:05:46.220 What if we ever had a two-dose regimen before?

00:05:50.540 When that happened, I said to myself,

00:05:52.640 well, I get that we've always had vaccinations,

00:05:55.900 but why is this one a two-dose vaccination?

00:06:01.540 Whereas, yeah, my dog is so loud.

00:06:06.760 Snickers, wake up.

00:06:08.700 Wake up.

00:06:09.260 Wake up.

00:06:09.300 There you go.

00:06:13.660 She snores so loudly.

00:06:15.940 So I was curious why this was the one

00:06:18.560 where multiple makers of the vaccine thought it needed two doses.

00:06:24.680 And I was curious about that.

00:06:27.040 Now, the latest studies show that maybe it shouldn't have been two doses at all.

00:06:31.940 Was there anybody saying that who was credible early on?

00:06:37.900 Was there anybody credible saying, hey, if you do the math, one dose at 80% protection,

00:06:46.440 given that it's limited, right?

00:06:48.240 If you had unlimited doses, then, of course, everybody should get two.

00:06:52.820 I think we'd all agree on that, right?

00:06:54.760 If it's unlimited, give everybody two.

00:06:57.920 But it's very limited, and time matters a lot.

00:07:02.740 Under that condition, would you take 80% protection really fast,

00:07:08.140 or would you really, really slow things down to get to 95% for the few who actually get the shot?

00:07:15.000 Just in your sort of general, common-sense, statistically ignorant brain,

00:07:22.820 which one sounds better?

00:07:25.900 Well, let me add a little wrinkle.

00:07:28.020 Let's say that if you're a senior citizen,

00:07:30.180 specifically let's say you're in a senior care facility.

00:07:35.060 Let's say we give all of them two.

00:07:38.160 Nobody would argue with that, I don't think, right?

00:07:40.540 Because there aren't that many.

00:07:42.060 You know, you can give all of the nursing home people two

00:07:45.900 and still have plenty to give people one.

00:07:49.340 Well, I believe there were people like Nate Silver

00:07:51.540 and other economists and statisticians

00:07:54.500 who would be typically ignored for a medical question

00:07:58.520 because it's outside their field.

00:08:00.700 But as Andres Beckhaus was pointing out to me this morning, privately,

00:08:05.840 just that there were people who were on this early,

00:08:09.500 but they weren't doctors.

00:08:11.360 They were the wrong kind of expert,

00:08:12.980 except that they were the right kind of expert.

00:08:17.320 Because what you needed was somebody who could do math.

00:08:20.520 That's what you needed.

00:08:21.680 You didn't need somebody who knew what a vaccine was

00:08:25.780 or you didn't need somebody who was like the virology expert.

00:08:29.700 You needed somebody who could do math.

00:08:32.900 Say what you will about Nate Silver

00:08:34.800 if you're politically opposed to his opinions or whatever.

00:08:38.460 But what you can't take away from him,

00:08:41.440 he can do math.

00:08:42.980 He can do math.

00:08:44.200 And he just did the math.

00:08:45.860 He said, uh, if the one dose is anywhere...

00:08:49.920 I'm sort of putting words in his mouth.

00:08:51.600 He didn't say this.

00:08:53.040 But the idea is that if one dose gets you to something like 80%,

00:08:56.440 and it was a strong reason to believe that that would be true,

00:08:59.540 we're doing it all wrong.

00:09:02.020 I mean, like, really wrong.

00:09:04.020 As wrong as you could get.

00:09:05.600 Indeed, I would say that the decision to do two doses rather than one

00:09:11.540 may have killed millions of people or might in the long run.

00:09:16.700 That one statistical error,

00:09:19.560 which the qualified statisticians pointed it down right away, right?

00:09:25.020 It wasn't like we didn't know.

00:09:27.520 The people who can do math raised their hand and said,

00:09:32.000 um, I feel like you're doing the math wrong.

00:09:35.120 Now, what does this sound like?

00:09:37.240 Does this sound like another situation?

00:09:40.320 It should sound like the rapid test issue.

00:09:43.800 So the same math that makes sense in the vaccines,

00:09:48.360 which is a lower effectiveness single dose,

00:09:51.420 can get you to wider immunity faster.

00:09:55.100 The same argument, or similar enough,

00:09:57.720 is that the lower quality rapid testing

00:10:02.580 might only be, you know, 80% or 90% effective

00:10:06.260 as opposed to closer to 100%.

00:10:08.300 But if you did lots of people quickly and cheaply,

00:10:11.380 you'd still catch so much of it

00:10:14.260 that you might, you know, stop the pandemic that way.

00:10:18.340 Well, the FDA has approved yet another rapid test.

00:10:24.320 The other rapid test, I think you still have to send it to a lab,

00:10:27.620 but you can do it at home.

00:10:29.960 But then you have to wait for the mail, et cetera.

00:10:32.680 But the new one, apparently you get your,

00:10:34.840 you can do it yourself and you get your own result.

00:10:38.780 And it's 80% effective.

00:10:41.880 Or no, but something like that.

00:10:44.360 It's not perfect, but it's a high effectiveness.

00:10:48.420 And you can do it at home.

00:10:51.500 And you don't have to wait for results.

00:10:53.560 You get a result in 10 minutes.

00:10:55.860 So we're done, right?

00:10:59.220 Didn't I tell you that if you could have a quick home test

00:11:03.400 that was at least that good,

00:11:05.680 you would catch so much of the,

00:11:07.320 you would probably get all of the super spreaders.

00:11:10.340 Because the ones that it misses

00:11:12.060 are the ones who are not shedding that much, right?

00:11:15.060 So the difference between whether these cheap tests

00:11:18.260 catch the virus or not

00:11:20.420 is not about the quality of the test.

00:11:23.260 The test is the same test every time.

00:11:25.440 It's just if you have a lot of virus,

00:11:27.760 you're a super spreader,

00:11:29.000 it'll catch you every time.

00:11:30.880 But if you're maybe just at the beginning,

00:11:33.320 you just got a little bit of shedding,

00:11:34.620 well, then that might miss it.

00:11:37.900 So as long as you get the super spreaders

00:11:40.540 and you get them quickly enough,

00:11:42.980 pretty much the pandemic's over, right?

00:11:46.480 Oh, no, I forgot to tell you something.

00:11:50.600 No, the pandemic isn't solved.

00:11:53.840 Do you know why?

00:11:54.500 Our FDA decided that you need

00:11:58.300 a fucking prescription

00:12:00.780 to stick this thing up your nose.

00:12:07.500 What?

00:12:09.780 Are you kidding me?

00:12:13.340 Yeah, look at the comments.

00:12:15.740 You're dumbfounded now, aren't you?

00:12:18.240 Can you think of any reason

00:12:19.860 that the FDA would require a prescription

00:12:23.380 to get this thing that you can do at home

00:12:27.020 and, you know, a 13-year-old can do it?

00:12:28.960 You're just sticking something up your nose

00:12:30.380 and putting it in a vial, basically.

00:12:32.440 Can you think of any legitimate reason?

00:12:36.820 No, you can't.

00:12:38.240 You can't think of any legitimate reason.

00:12:40.780 Now, suppose that's just a failure

00:12:42.660 of our imagination.

00:12:45.300 Suppose there are actually

00:12:46.320 a good reason for it.

00:12:47.460 Do you give the FDA a pass

00:12:50.940 because there's a good reason?

00:12:54.060 Fuck no,

00:12:55.400 because they didn't tell us the reason.

00:12:57.600 If you don't tell us the good reason,

00:13:00.960 we must assume you are corrupt.

00:13:04.020 We must assume that.

00:13:06.100 And so I would ask you to assume that,

00:13:08.120 that your FDA has now signaled unambiguously.

00:13:12.140 I mean, before I was a little suspicious.

00:13:14.660 No, I was very suspicious

00:13:15.980 that something was going on

00:13:17.820 that wasn't quite right

00:13:18.920 because we should have had these tests

00:13:20.580 approved a long time ago.

00:13:22.420 But now it's confirmed.

00:13:25.220 The adding the requirement

00:13:26.720 for the prescription

00:13:27.720 either doesn't have a reason,

00:13:30.620 which would mean there's a corrupt reason,

00:13:32.960 or, and this is the part you can confirm,

00:13:35.800 they're not providing a reason.

00:13:37.360 It's the same thing.

00:13:41.660 Either they don't have one

00:13:43.020 or they have one

00:13:44.080 and they're not telling you.

00:13:45.860 In either case,

00:13:47.740 this is a complete failure of the FDA

00:13:49.880 for whatever reason.

00:13:51.100 It might be a mystery.

00:13:52.240 Now let me ask you this.

00:13:54.260 If Trump

00:13:55.200 heard this,

00:13:58.180 how would he act?

00:14:00.580 Somebody said,

00:14:01.480 hey, Mr. Trump,

00:14:02.420 it looks like we've got a solution.

00:14:03.580 Oh, it looks like we don't

00:14:05.760 because they added this requirement

00:14:08.120 for a prescription.

00:14:10.240 Now, when a doctor prescribes it,

00:14:12.560 what do you think the doctor

00:14:14.200 is looking out for?

00:14:16.040 To make sure that somebody

00:14:17.360 knows how to do it right?

00:14:20.320 Now, it could be

00:14:21.220 that the only reason

00:14:22.020 is to limit the number of them,

00:14:24.420 which would be the shadiest reason

00:14:25.660 in the world, in my opinion.

00:14:27.600 But suppose somebody comes to Trump

00:14:29.680 and they say,

00:14:30.160 oh, well, we got the technology now.

00:14:31.920 We got the technology

00:14:33.860 so we can solve this problem

00:14:35.800 with this rapid testing.

00:14:37.300 When I say solve,

00:14:38.540 that's hyperbole, right?

00:14:39.600 We can make a big difference.

00:14:41.880 And what does the president say?

00:14:43.060 He goes, great.

00:14:43.840 Everybody will get this, right?

00:14:45.100 Now, it turns out

00:14:46.120 the FDA put a requirement on it

00:14:48.040 for a prescription.

00:14:50.380 So basically,

00:14:51.540 it won't make any difference

00:14:52.500 to the pandemic.

00:14:53.820 It really won't.

00:14:54.400 It won't make any difference

00:14:55.540 if you require a prescription.

00:14:57.200 It just won't be enough of them.

00:14:58.860 What would Trump say?

00:14:59.980 Well, what do you think?

00:15:02.720 What would Trump do

00:15:03.520 in that situation?

00:15:04.980 Well, we don't know.

00:15:06.140 Like, we'd have to speculate.

00:15:08.160 My guess would be

00:15:09.320 that they just told him

00:15:11.500 the difference

00:15:12.200 between a successful presidency

00:15:15.020 and an unsuccessful one.

00:15:17.440 And that he would have

00:15:18.440 ripped the FDA out by the roots

00:15:21.140 to get that changed.

00:15:23.420 I think.

00:15:24.880 I think he would have

00:15:26.060 ripped them out by the roots

00:15:27.320 to get that changed.

00:15:28.880 Now, I speculate

00:15:30.400 and only weakly

00:15:32.740 on this following point

00:15:34.200 that Trump wasn't aware.

00:15:37.740 In other words,

00:15:38.300 his advisors

00:15:38.960 had never brought him

00:15:39.840 this proposition

00:15:40.620 about the cheap,

00:15:42.600 less accurate tests

00:15:43.520 being a good solution

00:15:45.160 if you do it right.

00:15:46.620 I feel like maybe

00:15:47.760 nobody ever brought that to him

00:15:49.440 because I think

00:15:50.680 he would have made it happen.

00:15:52.460 Again, just speculating.

00:15:53.760 No way to know that, right?

00:15:55.060 But what will Biden do?

00:15:56.360 Will Biden say

00:15:57.860 trust the science?

00:16:00.380 I feel like he might.

00:16:02.980 Is this science?

00:16:05.180 Nope.

00:16:06.520 Is he going to say

00:16:07.580 trust the experts?

00:16:08.880 Because, you know,

00:16:09.820 there must be some reason

00:16:10.940 that they're putting

00:16:12.280 this requirement on there.

00:16:14.180 I feel that he's committed himself

00:16:16.240 to trusting the experts.

00:16:18.000 And the experts

00:16:19.000 appear to be

00:16:20.760 screwing the whole country.

00:16:22.860 Maybe killing millions.

00:16:24.260 There is no,

00:16:26.500 it's not,

00:16:27.420 there's no even

00:16:28.160 similarity

00:16:30.040 between how many people

00:16:32.220 died in the

00:16:33.880 Governor Cuomo case

00:16:35.220 of putting infected people

00:16:36.540 back in nursing homes

00:16:37.480 and that's,

00:16:38.760 you know,

00:16:38.960 in the thousands.

00:16:40.520 Horrible,

00:16:41.180 horrible situations.

00:16:42.280 Thousands of people

00:16:43.080 died from that mistake.

00:16:46.060 How many people

00:16:47.060 will die from this mistake?

00:16:48.820 A lot more.

00:16:50.220 Like, way more.

00:16:51.360 It's not even close.

00:16:52.100 If you're comparing

00:16:53.400 government fuck-ups,

00:16:56.440 Biden's fuck-up right now,

00:16:58.460 which, by the way,

00:16:59.660 let me be as clear as I can,

00:17:01.380 if this had been

00:17:02.220 President Trump

00:17:03.080 and he also didn't fix this,

00:17:05.740 or at least

00:17:06.100 obviously trying to fix it,

00:17:08.200 it would be the same fuck-up.

00:17:10.020 Right?

00:17:10.420 Nobody gets a pass

00:17:11.520 for their party affiliation.

00:17:13.480 You're fucking

00:17:14.360 the whole fucking country

00:17:15.980 by whatever this is.

00:17:18.520 Right?

00:17:18.760 I was savage

00:17:20.880 about Trump

00:17:21.660 not pursuing

00:17:22.900 this same option,

00:17:24.000 you know,

00:17:24.200 with the cheap tests.

00:17:25.380 And now,

00:17:26.200 I've got to say

00:17:26.820 the same thing

00:17:27.300 about Biden.

00:17:28.160 I mean,

00:17:28.360 I was just as savage

00:17:29.380 with Trump,

00:17:30.560 most of you heard me,

00:17:31.680 and I'm not going to

00:17:32.640 pull it back

00:17:33.700 because it's Biden.

00:17:35.220 Biden,

00:17:35.780 you're in the barrel.

00:17:37.480 It's your job.

00:17:38.660 If you don't fix this,

00:17:40.760 or,

00:17:41.500 and I would be

00:17:42.560 satisfied intellectually

00:17:44.540 with this,

00:17:45.200 it wouldn't be as good,

00:17:46.140 but at least I'd be

00:17:47.220 satisfied intellectually,

00:17:48.240 give us a good reason.

00:17:50.460 Just tell us a reason

00:17:51.520 that the FDA requires

00:17:53.280 this to be a prescription thing.

00:17:55.020 If there's a reason,

00:17:56.060 I'm open to it.

00:17:57.640 Right?

00:17:57.940 I'm not an unreasonable person.

00:17:59.680 I just need to hear the reason.

00:18:01.340 If not,

00:18:02.820 Biden,

00:18:03.360 you need to go.

00:18:04.400 You need to fuck

00:18:05.220 and be fired

00:18:05.980 with Cuomo.

00:18:08.380 Because these are

00:18:09.440 the size of mistakes

00:18:10.540 that are completely unreasonable.

00:18:12.580 And by the way,

00:18:13.680 if Trump lost

00:18:15.220 his re-election

00:18:16.060 because he didn't handle

00:18:17.400 the coronavirus

00:18:18.020 well enough,

00:18:19.220 I'm fine with that.

00:18:21.280 I'm absolutely

00:18:22.200 fine with that.

00:18:23.660 If Trump,

00:18:24.280 if Trump really did lose

00:18:25.740 because of coronavirus,

00:18:27.400 because I don't think,

00:18:28.280 I don't think he nailed it.

00:18:29.860 I think what he did

00:18:30.780 with the,

00:18:31.240 the vaccinations

00:18:32.280 was amazing.

00:18:34.600 I mean,

00:18:34.780 that was

00:18:35.180 Kennedy-esque leadership.

00:18:37.400 Nobody can take that

00:18:38.360 away from him.

00:18:38.940 But the testing part,

00:18:41.860 the rapid testing part

00:18:42.800 specifically,

00:18:44.040 I think,

00:18:44.520 I think Trump failed

00:18:45.720 on that.

00:18:46.540 And Biden is failing now.

00:18:50.180 So,

00:18:50.940 listen to,

00:18:51.500 listen to statisticians

00:18:53.080 too,

00:18:53.520 not just medical people.

00:18:56.880 Apparently,

00:18:57.620 Biden has

00:18:58.480 declared that this is

00:19:00.820 Irish-American

00:19:01.780 heritage month.

00:19:02.880 March is.

00:19:05.040 Now,

00:19:05.400 I guess this is

00:19:06.060 a fairly

00:19:07.120 normal thing.

00:19:08.540 Every year,

00:19:10.140 the government

00:19:10.540 just re-ups

00:19:12.020 and says,

00:19:12.820 hey,

00:19:13.100 it's Irish-American

00:19:14.740 heritage month.

00:19:16.280 To which I say,

00:19:17.740 we only have

00:19:19.260 12 months.

00:19:21.600 Now,

00:19:22.120 we've got

00:19:22.440 Black History Month.

00:19:25.000 That seems like

00:19:26.200 a good idea.

00:19:27.220 I'm all for that.

00:19:28.880 Now,

00:19:29.220 we've got

00:19:29.680 Irish-American

00:19:30.500 heritage month.

00:19:31.580 So,

00:19:31.760 that's March.

00:19:33.020 We've only got

00:19:33.940 10 left.

00:19:35.620 Is that enough?

00:19:37.460 Because I feel like,

00:19:38.540 there's going to be

00:19:39.240 a lot of

00:19:39.640 underserved

00:19:40.460 ethnicities here.

00:19:42.140 And that doesn't

00:19:42.800 seem right.

00:19:43.760 By the time we get

00:19:44.700 to Estonian

00:19:45.620 Americans,

00:19:47.280 what month

00:19:48.360 are they going to

00:19:48.860 have?

00:19:50.160 Nothing.

00:19:51.140 They'll all be

00:19:51.760 used up.

00:19:52.880 And I think that's

00:19:53.760 a little bit racist,

00:19:54.960 isn't it?

00:19:55.980 Now,

00:19:57.100 if the guy who

00:19:57.920 is declaring

00:19:58.540 its Irish-American

00:19:59.540 heritage month

00:20:00.300 happens to be

00:20:01.660 an Irish-American,

00:20:03.820 say,

00:20:04.080 Biden,

00:20:05.140 how do you feel

00:20:06.100 about that?

00:20:07.880 It feels like

00:20:09.200 he's the one

00:20:09.700 who shouldn't

00:20:10.100 do that.

00:20:11.360 It doesn't feel

00:20:12.540 like you should

00:20:13.140 declare a month

00:20:14.840 for your own

00:20:15.520 people if you're

00:20:16.380 the leader.

00:20:18.760 If Trump

00:20:19.800 had declared

00:20:20.540 Scottish-American

00:20:21.960 heritage month,

00:20:24.140 what would the

00:20:25.320 news have done

00:20:26.040 to him?

00:20:27.780 Is there such

00:20:28.760 a thing as

00:20:29.280 Scottish-American

00:20:30.240 history?

00:20:31.200 So that would

00:20:31.740 have been Trump.

00:20:32.740 If he had

00:20:33.140 tried to get

00:20:33.540 away with that,

00:20:34.900 that would

00:20:35.100 just be white

00:20:35.700 supremacy.

00:20:36.880 But maybe

00:20:37.380 Biden can get

00:20:38.060 away with this

00:20:38.540 because it's

00:20:38.920 a long,

00:20:39.820 long tradition.

00:20:41.460 But are we

00:20:42.240 using the same

00:20:43.060 standards for

00:20:45.100 the left as

00:20:45.680 the right?

00:20:46.380 Let's keep an

00:20:46.940 eye on that.

00:20:47.720 Let's talk about

00:20:48.240 Dr. Seuss.

00:20:49.060 You all want to

00:20:49.600 talk about that.

00:20:50.400 So I've been

00:20:50.720 following this

00:20:51.240 story lightly.

00:20:53.600 Like there's

00:20:54.020 some stories you

00:20:54.700 dig in and there

00:20:56.060 are other stories

00:20:56.600 you just read the

00:20:57.260 headline and move

00:20:57.960 on.

00:20:58.680 And this Dr.

00:20:59.440 Seuss one,

00:20:59.960 I've been reading

00:21:00.420 the headlines and

00:21:01.120 moving on.

00:21:01.700 because I

00:21:03.120 trusted that the

00:21:04.080 following would

00:21:04.800 happen.

00:21:06.160 I trusted that

00:21:07.440 just being a

00:21:08.660 consumer of

00:21:09.360 news and

00:21:10.520 dipping in all

00:21:11.760 the time and

00:21:12.460 turning on the

00:21:13.040 news all the

00:21:13.600 time, that I

00:21:14.660 would clearly

00:21:15.660 and unambiguously

00:21:16.780 be presented

00:21:17.560 with the

00:21:18.060 examples of

00:21:19.780 those things

00:21:20.360 which maybe

00:21:20.880 didn't look so

00:21:21.620 bad when they

00:21:22.220 were first done,

00:21:23.300 but society

00:21:24.080 has evolved and

00:21:25.880 maybe they look

00:21:26.560 bad now.

00:21:28.020 So I wanted

00:21:28.560 to see some

00:21:29.700 of the examples

00:21:30.360 of the horrible,

00:21:31.660 horrible things

00:21:32.300 in these Dr.

00:21:34.240 Seuss books.

00:21:36.600 Have any of you

00:21:37.460 seen any?

00:21:38.900 Has anybody

00:21:39.680 actually seen

00:21:40.820 an example of

00:21:42.580 one of the

00:21:42.980 offensive things?

00:21:44.560 Now I've heard

00:21:45.260 them described,

00:21:46.780 but I haven't

00:21:47.540 seen them.

00:21:48.840 Now are we

00:21:49.460 so sensitive?

00:21:55.740 Snickers,

00:21:56.440 wake up.

00:21:56.940 I have to be

00:22:01.280 more exciting.

00:22:02.380 I'm boring my

00:22:03.400 dog to sleep.

00:22:04.720 It's causing a

00:22:05.380 problem.

00:22:08.120 All right, so

00:22:08.620 none of you, I

00:22:09.600 believe none of

00:22:10.160 you have seen

00:22:10.680 any of the

00:22:11.040 examples, right?

00:22:17.400 Somebody says,

00:22:18.240 I don't think

00:22:18.700 Scots-Irish is a

00:22:20.160 real thing.

00:22:20.680 I don't know

00:22:21.000 what that means.

00:22:21.520 So the

00:22:24.500 description of

00:22:26.360 these offenses

00:22:27.220 is that it's

00:22:28.900 a, quote,

00:22:29.500 racist imagery

00:22:30.660 of Asian and

00:22:31.880 black characters.

00:22:33.360 Now I think

00:22:34.060 that's a real

00:22:34.660 thing, Mike,

00:22:36.480 in my opinion,

00:22:38.360 and I have to

00:22:39.020 deal with this

00:22:39.460 all the time

00:22:39.880 because I'm

00:22:40.360 a professional

00:22:40.920 cartoonist.

00:22:42.000 So when you're

00:22:42.520 a professional

00:22:43.020 cartoonist,

00:22:44.520 the market

00:22:46.280 will ask you

00:22:47.300 to have

00:22:47.960 diversity in

00:22:48.720 your product.

00:22:49.960 That's

00:22:50.400 reasonable,

00:22:50.940 right?

00:22:52.100 Make your

00:22:52.780 comic look like

00:22:54.480 the real world.

00:22:55.120 That's what I

00:22:55.500 want to do.

00:22:56.040 I draw a comic

00:22:56.720 about the real

00:22:57.420 world.

00:22:58.160 So of course,

00:22:59.780 I want it to

00:23:00.380 look as much

00:23:00.880 like the real

00:23:01.380 world as

00:23:01.740 possible,

00:23:02.480 including a

00:23:03.240 diverse cast.

00:23:05.100 But there's a

00:23:05.900 problem.

00:23:07.420 Do you know

00:23:07.740 what the problem

00:23:08.180 is?

00:23:09.440 It's a big

00:23:10.160 one.

00:23:11.280 Here's the

00:23:11.860 problem.

00:23:12.700 If I, as

00:23:13.860 generic white

00:23:15.040 guy, introduce,

00:23:16.460 let's say, an

00:23:16.880 African-American

00:23:17.500 character into

00:23:18.440 my comic,

00:23:19.300 what would

00:23:21.140 be the

00:23:21.680 personality I

00:23:22.860 would give

00:23:23.200 that character?

00:23:24.360 Because remember,

00:23:25.400 to make it a

00:23:25.960 good comic, all

00:23:27.480 of the characters

00:23:28.080 have gigantic

00:23:28.920 flaws.

00:23:30.420 So Alice gets

00:23:31.380 angry too

00:23:32.500 quickly.

00:23:33.060 The boss is

00:23:33.780 clueless.

00:23:35.620 Dilbert is

00:23:36.400 sort of a

00:23:37.320 nerd.

00:23:37.980 He doesn't

00:23:38.400 have his

00:23:38.700 social graces.

00:23:40.200 Wally's lazy.

00:23:41.780 Ashok, the

00:23:42.200 intern, who's

00:23:43.180 the only person

00:23:43.760 who has any

00:23:44.220 interesting flavor

00:23:45.100 at all, because

00:23:45.820 he was born in

00:23:46.740 India.

00:23:47.020 But Ashok, the

00:23:48.280 intern in the

00:23:48.920 Dilbert comic, the

00:23:50.280 only flaw I could

00:23:51.420 give him, that I

00:23:52.980 could stay out of

00:23:53.600 trouble, was that

00:23:55.160 he's inexperienced.

00:23:57.820 That's it.

00:23:59.040 His only flaw is

00:24:00.780 one of youth, which

00:24:02.840 of course is

00:24:03.440 self-solving.

00:24:05.600 So I couldn't even

00:24:06.400 give Ashok the one

00:24:08.520 character in my

00:24:09.320 strip.

00:24:09.560 I couldn't even

00:24:10.080 give him a real

00:24:10.960 flaw.

00:24:11.960 I had to give him

00:24:12.660 the only kind of

00:24:13.360 flaw you can give

00:24:14.140 somebody that

00:24:14.700 isn't real.

00:24:15.700 You just grow out

00:24:16.600 of it like

00:24:16.960 everybody does.

00:24:17.780 It's like being a

00:24:18.420 kid.

00:24:20.060 Now, what happened

00:24:20.920 when I introduced

00:24:21.760 an Indian-American

00:24:24.300 character?

00:24:25.560 I was blamed,

00:24:27.760 accused of being

00:24:28.460 a racist, because

00:24:30.180 the Ashok character

00:24:32.540 sometimes did silly

00:24:33.880 things.

00:24:35.140 And people said,

00:24:36.580 you should be

00:24:37.980 canceled for saying

00:24:38.940 such bad things

00:24:39.700 about black people.

00:24:40.480 Now, my defense

00:24:42.680 was, he's Ashok

00:24:44.580 the intern from

00:24:46.060 India.

00:24:47.540 He's not a black

00:24:48.900 character.

00:24:50.180 To which my public

00:24:51.320 said, stop making

00:24:53.040 this racist comic

00:24:54.600 about black

00:24:55.180 characters.

00:24:56.340 To which I said,

00:24:57.240 oh, maybe you

00:24:57.880 didn't hear me the

00:24:58.380 first time.

00:24:59.420 There actually

00:24:59.800 aren't, there are

00:25:00.800 no black characters

00:25:01.760 in the strip.

00:25:02.640 And the reason I do

00:25:03.480 that is out of

00:25:05.000 respect.

00:25:06.060 Because I don't

00:25:06.600 know a way that I

00:25:07.560 could add a,

00:25:08.380 well, and out of

00:25:10.760 fear as well, but

00:25:11.580 it is also out of

00:25:12.400 respect.

00:25:13.080 That I don't know

00:25:13.660 that I could treat

00:25:14.260 the character right.

00:25:15.720 And I do think I

00:25:16.520 have some obligation

00:25:17.180 to do that.

00:25:18.760 And my public

00:25:20.220 says, but why are

00:25:21.760 you being so racist

00:25:22.640 about your black

00:25:23.580 characters?

00:25:24.140 To which I say,

00:25:25.000 I don't think you

00:25:26.600 hear me.

00:25:27.120 I don't have any.

00:25:28.980 And there's a

00:25:30.140 reason.

00:25:31.260 There's a reason.

00:25:32.740 It's because you

00:25:33.220 can't.

00:25:34.720 You just can't do

00:25:35.540 it.

00:25:35.960 In our current

00:25:36.920 situation, there's

00:25:37.900 no way I could

00:25:38.440 do it without

00:25:38.920 getting cancelled.

00:25:39.760 Because I would

00:25:40.340 have to add a

00:25:40.940 flaw, and then

00:25:42.140 that's the end

00:25:42.660 of it.

00:25:42.920 I'm cancelled.

00:25:44.320 So, Dr. Seuss,

00:25:46.540 of course, had a

00:25:47.140 different situation

00:25:47.900 in the Dr. Seuss

00:25:49.340 books, because they

00:25:50.100 were old enough

00:25:50.940 that he just did

00:25:52.060 whatever seemed

00:25:53.060 appropriate at the

00:25:53.960 time, but now

00:25:54.980 looks wildly

00:25:55.780 inappropriate by

00:25:56.760 our modern eyes.

00:25:58.440 And I would

00:25:58.840 guess that he

00:26:00.360 has some pictures

00:26:02.260 of Asian and

00:26:03.260 black characters

00:26:03.960 that probably are

00:26:05.980 probably so racist

00:26:09.080 by modern

00:26:09.840 standards that

00:26:10.620 you would laugh

00:26:11.220 when you saw

00:26:11.660 them.

00:26:12.540 You would laugh

00:26:13.460 comparing them to

00:26:14.260 what is acceptable

00:26:15.340 now to what was

00:26:16.400 acceptable then.

00:26:17.340 But I'd like to

00:26:18.020 see them, because I

00:26:19.700 think we should

00:26:20.220 laugh them away.

00:26:22.120 Am I wrong?

00:26:23.520 Let me ask you,

00:26:25.620 if you are, let's

00:26:27.480 say if you're

00:26:27.920 black or Asian

00:26:28.580 American and you're

00:26:29.200 watching this live

00:26:29.940 stream, let me ask

00:26:30.640 you this question.

00:26:32.060 Don't you think

00:26:32.880 we'd be better

00:26:33.460 off publishing

00:26:34.720 the pictures and

00:26:36.320 all having a good

00:26:37.140 laugh?

00:26:38.700 Isn't that

00:26:39.300 healthier?

00:26:40.140 Because I don't

00:26:40.800 think there are

00:26:41.160 any white people

00:26:41.900 who are saying,

00:26:42.500 yeah, the world

00:26:44.380 is better if we

00:26:45.300 make the non-white

00:26:46.840 characters weirdly

00:26:49.900 stereotypical.

00:26:51.440 There is zero

00:26:52.340 people on the

00:26:53.180 other side of the

00:26:53.740 argument.

00:26:55.000 Nobody.

00:26:55.740 There's nobody on

00:26:56.500 the other side of

00:26:57.040 the argument.

00:26:57.520 Nobody says, well,

00:26:58.840 I would really like

00:26:59.840 the non-white

00:27:01.120 characters to be

00:27:02.420 insultingly drawn.

00:27:04.820 Nobody.

00:27:06.180 Nobody's on that

00:27:06.920 side.

00:27:07.340 It's not like

00:27:07.880 statues where

00:27:09.140 people have some

00:27:09.780 unrelated argument

00:27:10.780 about free speech

00:27:12.020 and history and

00:27:13.020 stuff like that.

00:27:13.700 There's nobody on

00:27:14.560 the other side.

00:27:15.620 If we can't laugh

00:27:16.900 at this together,

00:27:21.340 like, what the

00:27:22.580 hell?

00:27:23.360 We're not even

00:27:24.000 trying.

00:27:24.680 Let me tell you

00:27:25.140 how to solve this.

00:27:26.660 Here's how you

00:27:27.260 would solve the

00:27:27.940 Dr. Seuss thing.

00:27:29.060 If somebody owns

00:27:30.100 the rights, I

00:27:31.160 don't know if

00:27:31.460 it's family

00:27:32.700 members or

00:27:33.400 publishers or

00:27:34.120 who owns the

00:27:34.640 rights by this

00:27:35.160 point, I think

00:27:36.260 that they should

00:27:37.140 hire a black

00:27:39.800 cartoonist to

00:27:42.260 suggest a

00:27:43.280 non-offensive,

00:27:45.600 let's say,

00:27:46.780 drawing style to

00:27:47.640 replace the

00:27:48.460 originals, but to

00:27:51.240 keep it within the

00:27:52.020 style of the

00:27:53.260 original Dr.

00:27:53.880 Seuss, but also

00:27:56.480 make sure that

00:27:57.060 everybody knows

00:27:57.580 what the original

00:27:58.140 is, so that in

00:28:00.680 the book it

00:28:01.200 says this was

00:28:01.840 modified for this

00:28:03.000 reason.

00:28:04.200 You should be

00:28:04.800 able to see the

00:28:05.420 original.

00:28:06.500 You don't want

00:28:07.060 the original to

00:28:07.880 be forever gone.

00:28:11.140 It needs to be

00:28:11.760 put in as proper

00:28:12.520 context.

00:28:13.920 But I've been

00:28:14.320 thinking about

00:28:14.740 doing this for

00:28:15.740 Dilbert, because

00:28:17.120 on one hand,

00:28:18.480 and I know my

00:28:19.760 audience especially,

00:28:20.860 is thinking some

00:28:21.680 version of,

00:28:22.860 Scott, don't be

00:28:24.580 so, don't be so

00:28:26.160 weak.

00:28:27.200 Just make your

00:28:27.860 characters, do

00:28:29.140 what you do, let

00:28:30.520 the chips fall.

00:28:31.940 I don't live in

00:28:32.740 that world.

00:28:34.040 I don't live in

00:28:34.840 that world.

00:28:35.720 I live in a world

00:28:36.560 in which I prefer

00:28:37.880 people to be

00:28:38.720 polite.

00:28:40.460 You know, forget

00:28:40.960 about the wokeness

00:28:42.260 and all that stuff.

00:28:43.740 Can't we be

00:28:44.340 polite?

00:28:45.720 Can't we just be

00:28:47.040 polite to each

00:28:47.660 other?

00:28:48.400 Do we even have

00:28:49.120 to worry about any

00:28:50.300 of the other stuff

00:28:51.500 if you're just

00:28:52.080 polite?

00:28:52.980 How polite is

00:28:54.000 it to publish

00:28:56.660 offensive characters

00:28:57.820 of some group?

00:28:58.920 Now, I get that

00:28:59.700 it maybe wasn't

00:29:00.620 as offensive in

00:29:01.660 the past, and so

00:29:02.940 maybe we're too

00:29:03.820 woke now, but

00:29:05.020 here we are,

00:29:06.100 right?

00:29:06.500 Here we are.

00:29:07.520 However we got

00:29:08.320 here doesn't

00:29:08.820 matter.

00:29:09.320 Here we are.

00:29:10.460 It's just not

00:29:11.340 polite to do

00:29:14.440 offensive things

00:29:15.400 that people find

00:29:16.340 offensive, if you

00:29:17.180 can avoid it.

00:29:18.220 And how hard

00:29:18.800 would it be to

00:29:19.360 get a black

00:29:20.560 cartoonist and

00:29:21.380 say, look, give

00:29:21.980 us a hand,

00:29:23.220 redraw these

00:29:23.980 characters, we'll

00:29:25.260 just change the

00:29:25.900 ones that are

00:29:26.380 offensive, and

00:29:27.640 then we'll

00:29:28.160 annotate it so

00:29:29.260 everybody knows

00:29:29.820 what we did.

00:29:30.320 Same with the

00:29:30.880 Asian American

00:29:31.540 characters.

00:29:32.160 That's why I

00:29:32.600 wanted to

00:29:32.840 handle it.

00:29:33.380 And by the

00:29:33.740 way, I've been

00:29:34.480 thinking for a

00:29:35.120 long time, and

00:29:35.640 I feel as though

00:29:37.360 I'm going to

00:29:37.680 pull the trigger

00:29:38.320 on this, although

00:29:39.900 this could

00:29:40.400 backfire.

00:29:41.720 I'm thinking

00:29:42.380 of doing the

00:29:43.040 same thing with

00:29:43.980 Dilbert.

00:29:45.380 I'm thinking

00:29:46.320 of asking

00:29:48.540 Black Lives Matter,

00:29:49.560 for example,

00:29:50.000 literally, to

00:29:51.520 say, hey, I've

00:29:52.180 got this issue, I'd

00:29:53.460 like to add some

00:29:54.020 diversity, I can't

00:29:55.660 do it alone.

00:29:57.260 Nothing wrong

00:29:57.900 with that.

00:29:58.960 There's nothing

00:29:59.400 wrong with saying

00:29:59.960 you can't do it

00:30:00.580 alone, right?

00:30:01.400 I can't do it

00:30:02.200 alone.

00:30:03.060 Give me a hand.

00:30:04.160 Help me develop a

00:30:05.180 character with a

00:30:06.620 flaw.

00:30:08.020 Got to have a

00:30:08.700 flaw, or I don't

00:30:09.480 want it, and not

00:30:10.760 one of these weak

00:30:11.820 flaws, like they're

00:30:13.260 inexperienced.

00:30:14.500 I need a real,

00:30:16.160 give me a genuine

00:30:17.000 flaw.

00:30:17.460 But you need to

00:30:19.280 develop it for me,

00:30:20.680 and then I'll

00:30:21.540 operate with it.

00:30:23.380 Now, is that

00:30:26.420 too woke?

00:30:28.580 Have I gone too

00:30:29.500 far to the other

00:30:30.180 side to say, hey,

00:30:31.820 give me a hand on

00:30:32.540 this?

00:30:33.080 I don't think so.

00:30:34.440 Because I'm saying

00:30:35.220 that there's something

00:30:35.960 that I can't do.

00:30:37.400 I'm just in a

00:30:38.060 situation where, like,

00:30:39.880 it wouldn't work if

00:30:40.720 I do it.

00:30:41.140 That's just a

00:30:41.640 practical statement.

00:30:43.360 If I get a hand,

00:30:44.740 maybe I can do it.

00:30:45.780 And then I have

00:30:46.680 more diversity in

00:30:48.120 the strip.

00:30:48.760 I don't know how

00:30:49.300 it would.

00:30:50.200 Somebody says it's

00:30:50.940 pandering.

00:30:51.880 So that's what I

00:30:52.460 was getting for.

00:30:53.320 I don't think it

00:30:54.080 is.

00:30:55.000 I don't think that

00:30:56.120 evolving your

00:30:58.760 product to be

00:31:00.500 more compatible

00:31:01.440 with the customers

00:31:02.340 is pandering.

00:31:04.340 I think that's

00:31:04.940 commerce, right?

00:31:08.000 Pandering feels

00:31:08.920 different.

00:31:09.440 Pandering feels

00:31:10.060 like you're doing

00:31:10.700 it just for

00:31:12.740 maybe looks.

00:31:14.120 or you're doing

00:31:15.500 it just to make

00:31:16.380 somebody happy.

00:31:17.600 That would not

00:31:18.360 be my motivation.

00:31:19.640 My motivation

00:31:20.300 would be to have

00:31:21.060 a product which

00:31:21.940 more people like.

00:31:22.740 That's it.

00:31:23.660 And be polite.

00:31:24.900 Just be polite

00:31:25.680 and have a product

00:31:26.320 people like.

00:31:27.160 All right.

00:31:27.640 I'm repeating

00:31:28.100 myself too much.

00:31:29.440 And thank you

00:31:29.940 for pointing that

00:31:30.720 out.

00:31:31.620 There's a company

00:31:32.240 called MyHeritage.

00:31:33.720 All one word.

00:31:34.880 MyHeritage.

00:31:36.100 In which you can

00:31:36.720 take an old

00:31:37.320 photo and they

00:31:38.960 will animate it.

00:31:41.020 Like a Harry

00:31:41.960 Potter photo that

00:31:43.020 moves.

00:31:43.440 So you can

00:31:44.380 just take an

00:31:44.920 old photo of

00:31:45.900 your grandparents

00:31:46.540 and turn it

00:31:47.900 into a photo

00:31:48.480 where the head

00:31:49.740 instead of just

00:31:50.420 looking at you

00:31:50.980 like it's still

00:31:51.520 a photo is

00:31:52.480 looking around

00:31:53.020 a little bit.

00:31:55.180 Look around

00:31:55.820 the room.

00:31:56.680 Now how hard

00:31:57.260 would it be to

00:31:57.900 take it to the

00:31:58.420 next step where

00:31:59.640 the photos all

00:32:00.640 follow you when

00:32:01.380 you're walking

00:32:01.840 around?

00:32:03.720 That's going to

00:32:04.360 happen.

00:32:05.720 So this is fun.

00:32:07.700 In the world of

00:32:08.440 deep fakes even

00:32:09.400 our photographs will

00:32:10.380 come to life.

00:32:11.820 And already have.

00:32:12.440 So this is

00:32:13.160 current technology.

00:32:14.800 There's nothing

00:32:15.380 about this that

00:32:16.200 is speculative.

00:32:17.960 This is right

00:32:18.640 now.

00:32:19.240 And they look

00:32:19.780 really, really

00:32:20.540 real.

00:32:22.200 A lot of people

00:32:22.920 saying what's

00:32:23.600 going to happen

00:32:23.980 when the deep

00:32:24.740 fakes are so

00:32:25.400 good that you

00:32:26.460 can make a

00:32:27.140 famous actor

00:32:28.040 with the

00:32:29.920 software.

00:32:31.980 Does the

00:32:32.500 original actor

00:32:33.440 own their

00:32:34.520 face?

00:32:36.300 What do you

00:32:36.920 think?

00:32:37.220 does Tom

00:32:38.600 Cruz own his

00:32:40.020 face if

00:32:41.440 somebody wanted

00:32:42.020 to make a

00:32:42.500 deep fake and

00:32:43.100 then make a

00:32:43.560 movie about

00:32:44.040 it?

00:32:45.780 Is there a

00:32:47.280 lawyer here?

00:32:48.760 Because I don't

00:32:49.380 know the answer

00:32:49.820 to that question.

00:32:51.980 And what would

00:32:52.860 it take for it

00:32:53.660 not to be

00:32:56.020 owned by Tom

00:32:57.800 Cruz?

00:32:58.120 Suppose you

00:33:00.080 took Tom

00:33:00.520 Cruz and you

00:33:01.280 made him

00:33:02.040 black.

00:33:04.880 But otherwise

00:33:05.480 it looks just

00:33:06.300 like him.

00:33:07.060 Does Tom

00:33:07.680 Cruz still

00:33:08.560 own it?

00:33:09.340 Or did you

00:33:09.840 modify it

00:33:10.420 enough?

00:33:10.740 Somebody says

00:33:13.300 he should.

00:33:14.780 Why?

00:33:16.560 Now he

00:33:17.400 should if you

00:33:18.500 were trying to

00:33:19.080 sell a movie

00:33:19.740 as if it were

00:33:22.020 the real Tom

00:33:22.980 Cruz.

00:33:23.900 Now if

00:33:24.260 somebody's trying

00:33:24.760 to sell a

00:33:25.340 deep fake as

00:33:26.280 the real person

00:33:27.060 that's definitely

00:33:27.820 illegal.

00:33:28.600 No question

00:33:29.100 about that.

00:33:30.180 But suppose

00:33:31.280 somebody makes

00:33:31.920 a movie and

00:33:32.540 they say we're

00:33:33.460 going to make

00:33:33.860 a software

00:33:34.940 version of Tom

00:33:35.800 Cruz but we're

00:33:36.880 not going to

00:33:37.340 try to fool

00:33:37.900 you.

00:33:38.860 We're just

00:33:39.360 doing it in

00:33:39.880 software.

00:33:40.200 It's not

00:33:40.720 really Tom

00:33:41.220 Cruz.

00:33:41.600 He has

00:33:41.800 nothing to

00:33:42.220 do with

00:33:42.460 this.

00:33:43.460 Is that

00:33:43.840 illegal?

00:33:45.620 I don't

00:33:46.380 know but

00:33:48.160 I'll bet

00:33:48.660 it's legal

00:33:49.380 only because

00:33:50.920 the law

00:33:51.460 didn't

00:33:52.160 anticipate

00:33:52.740 it.

00:33:53.640 Yeah it

00:33:54.000 would not

00:33:54.420 be a

00:33:55.660 counterfeit

00:33:56.300 if you

00:33:57.420 labeled it

00:33:58.280 correctly.

00:33:59.060 It's only

00:33:59.460 the false

00:34:00.160 labeling that

00:34:00.760 gets you

00:34:01.040 in trouble.

00:34:01.620 Am I

00:34:01.800 right?

00:34:02.760 So here's

00:34:03.760 my prediction

00:34:04.360 that you

00:34:05.380 will not

00:34:06.060 see big

00:34:07.520 movie studios

00:34:08.380 trying to

00:34:09.620 make movies

00:34:10.180 with fake

00:34:11.500 versions of

00:34:12.280 real people.

00:34:13.860 There will

00:34:14.500 be some

00:34:14.900 of it but

00:34:15.880 it will be

00:34:16.260 a transitional

00:34:17.100 period.

00:34:18.480 In other

00:34:18.760 words there

00:34:19.240 will be a

00:34:19.780 period in

00:34:20.240 history in

00:34:21.260 which maybe

00:34:21.840 you put a

00:34:23.820 younger Paul

00:34:25.120 Newman into

00:34:25.740 a movie or

00:34:27.180 a younger

00:34:28.040 any actor

00:34:28.780 into a movie

00:34:29.540 and maybe the

00:34:30.500 real actor is

00:34:31.200 still associated

00:34:32.080 and agrees that

00:34:33.400 their younger

00:34:33.860 self will be

00:34:34.480 there.

00:34:35.200 Maybe they

00:34:35.540 even do the

00:34:35.980 voice.

00:34:37.020 Maybe somebody

00:34:37.500 does the

00:34:37.880 voice of their

00:34:38.600 own younger

00:34:39.120 character.

00:34:41.020 So you

00:34:41.560 can see a

00:34:41.900 period where

00:34:42.280 that happens.

00:34:43.000 But long

00:34:43.460 term the

00:34:43.920 economics guarantee

00:34:44.980 that it will

00:34:46.260 not be real

00:34:46.940 actors that

00:34:47.800 the fakes

00:34:48.940 are.

00:34:49.740 In the

00:34:49.980 long term

00:34:50.600 simple

00:34:51.700 economics and

00:34:52.520 by the way

00:34:52.860 have I ever

00:34:53.280 taught you

00:34:53.740 that if you

00:34:54.240 had economics

00:34:55.000 to your

00:34:55.400 talent stack

00:34:56.140 you can see

00:34:57.020 around corners?

00:34:58.980 A simple

00:34:59.760 understanding of

00:35:00.460 economics just

00:35:02.240 lets you see

00:35:02.760 the future.

00:35:03.740 Because money

00:35:04.240 talks, money

00:35:05.280 is predictable,

00:35:05.940 people are

00:35:07.000 predictable when

00:35:07.720 it comes to

00:35:08.400 money.

00:35:09.020 So whatever

00:35:09.380 money is

00:35:10.040 involved you

00:35:10.960 immediately become

00:35:12.020 very predictable

00:35:12.860 because people

00:35:13.860 act the same

00:35:14.540 way around it.

00:35:15.580 And here's the

00:35:16.040 predictable part.

00:35:17.560 Why would you

00:35:18.060 pay Tom Cruise?

00:35:19.920 Tom Cruise is

00:35:20.960 expensive.

00:35:22.040 If you're going

00:35:23.060 to work with

00:35:23.660 him, and you

00:35:24.640 probably would,

00:35:25.560 to use his

00:35:26.420 CGI deep

00:35:27.840 fake, that's

00:35:29.200 really expensive.

00:35:30.780 Do you know

00:35:31.200 what's better

00:35:31.600 than that?

00:35:32.580 Making a

00:35:33.340 version that's

00:35:34.040 not Tom Cruise

00:35:34.940 that's better

00:35:35.540 than him?

00:35:36.440 Because Tom

00:35:37.320 Cruise, as

00:35:38.780 engaging as

00:35:39.540 he is, he's

00:35:40.820 not the best

00:35:41.620 looking guy in

00:35:42.320 the world.

00:35:43.900 Wouldn't you

00:35:44.240 like a taller

00:35:46.120 Tom Cruise?

00:35:48.520 See where I'm

00:35:49.360 going?

00:35:49.800 Tom Cruise is

00:35:50.680 5'6".

00:35:52.040 Wouldn't you

00:35:52.880 want a taller

00:35:53.520 one?

00:35:54.280 Come on.

00:35:55.180 Of course you

00:35:55.660 wouldn't.

00:35:56.360 So why would

00:35:56.900 you make one

00:35:58.280 that looks just

00:35:59.080 like the star

00:36:00.900 when it would

00:36:01.860 be trivially

00:36:02.600 easy to make

00:36:03.260 a better one?

00:36:03.760 Do you

00:36:05.080 think that

00:36:05.640 Tom Cruise

00:36:07.380 is, let's

00:36:09.040 say, what

00:36:10.220 do you call

00:36:10.520 it, symmetrical?

00:36:13.060 Probably not.

00:36:14.340 I think the

00:36:14.800 thing is his

00:36:15.380 nose is a

00:36:16.000 little weird,

00:36:16.540 right?

00:36:17.480 All you do

00:36:18.380 is start with

00:36:19.180 what's good,

00:36:20.040 and then the

00:36:20.520 AI will very

00:36:21.520 rapidly figure out

00:36:22.380 what people

00:36:22.780 want to look

00:36:23.300 at.

00:36:23.880 It will

00:36:24.260 create characters

00:36:25.760 based on what

00:36:26.440 people like the

00:36:27.220 most.

00:36:27.940 You can even

00:36:28.400 do it in

00:36:28.800 real time.

00:36:29.720 Just show you

00:36:30.380 a character,

00:36:31.040 which of these

00:36:31.860 two do you

00:36:32.240 like better.

00:36:33.220 People would

00:36:33.740 vote, and as

00:36:34.480 people are

00:36:34.860 voting, the

00:36:35.500 AI is changing

00:36:36.380 the choices,

00:36:37.820 so that it

00:36:39.160 just builds in

00:36:40.480 real time the

00:36:41.100 perfect character

00:36:41.860 that everybody

00:36:42.440 wants to see.

00:36:44.260 That's the one

00:36:45.060 you want to

00:36:45.460 get.

00:36:46.300 You don't want

00:36:46.920 the crappy

00:36:47.580 old looks-like

00:36:48.540 Tom Cruise

00:36:49.280 with all of

00:36:50.960 his pimples and

00:36:52.200 warts and his

00:36:52.880 five-foot-six

00:36:53.860 and he's getting

00:36:54.640 older.

00:36:55.760 Why would you

00:36:56.340 want that?

00:36:57.120 Why would you

00:36:57.540 pay twice as

00:36:58.460 much for the

00:36:59.960 thing that's

00:37:00.360 clearly worse?

00:37:01.860 In the long

00:37:02.600 run, regular

00:37:03.720 actors will be

00:37:04.540 replaced.

00:37:05.620 There's no

00:37:05.920 possibility it

00:37:08.420 could go

00:37:08.720 another way

00:37:09.300 in the long

00:37:10.460 run.

00:37:10.740 No possibility

00:37:11.600 it could go

00:37:12.620 any other way

00:37:13.200 because of

00:37:13.540 economics.

00:37:17.600 All right.

00:37:20.780 Have you

00:37:21.360 seen that

00:37:21.880 Twitter does

00:37:23.580 this thing

00:37:24.060 where they'll

00:37:25.200 note that the

00:37:25.860 comments may

00:37:26.620 have some

00:37:27.000 offensive ones

00:37:27.980 and you can't

00:37:29.340 read the rest

00:37:29.840 of the comments

00:37:30.360 until you click

00:37:31.080 on a thing

00:37:31.780 that says

00:37:32.140 they may

00:37:32.520 be offensive

00:37:33.000 and then

00:37:34.000 you click

00:37:34.400 on it

00:37:34.800 and there's

00:37:35.900 nothing offensive

00:37:36.600 there, even

00:37:37.900 slightly?

00:37:39.820 Is this another

00:37:40.840 shadow banning

00:37:41.540 technique?

00:37:42.760 I'm trying to

00:37:43.620 understand what

00:37:44.380 it is because

00:37:45.780 it feels like

00:37:46.460 just another

00:37:47.160 way to hide

00:37:48.260 stuff from

00:37:49.040 certain people

00:37:49.760 but not others.

00:37:51.020 Now, I don't

00:37:52.160 have direct

00:37:53.280 evidence that

00:37:54.160 that's the

00:37:54.600 purpose of it,

00:37:55.340 but what I

00:37:56.380 also don't

00:37:57.060 have is

00:37:57.720 any clue

00:37:58.740 what would

00:37:59.740 be a

00:38:00.000 different

00:38:00.480 reason for

00:38:01.180 it.

00:38:02.480 Can you

00:38:03.080 think of

00:38:03.440 any reason

00:38:03.960 that most

00:38:05.300 of my

00:38:05.760 comments

00:38:06.280 would be

00:38:06.920 hidden that

00:38:07.380 way when

00:38:08.960 none of

00:38:09.440 them are

00:38:09.820 offensive or

00:38:10.960 even a

00:38:11.420 little bit?

00:38:13.400 What is

00:38:14.200 the second

00:38:14.820 possible reason

00:38:15.820 for that?

00:38:16.720 I can't

00:38:17.140 think of

00:38:17.400 one.

00:38:18.380 Now, again,

00:38:19.340 if I've

00:38:20.060 taught you

00:38:20.380 this a million

00:38:20.880 times, you

00:38:21.880 have to be

00:38:22.300 careful that

00:38:22.920 the real

00:38:23.260 problem here

00:38:23.820 is the

00:38:24.240 limit of

00:38:24.720 your own

00:38:25.100 imagination.

00:38:26.600 So I'm

00:38:26.840 saying, think

00:38:28.800 of all the

00:38:29.820 other reasons

00:38:31.120 that some

00:38:32.760 comments would

00:38:33.480 be routinely

00:38:34.180 hidden that

00:38:35.260 way.

00:38:37.200 I can't

00:38:38.080 think of

00:38:38.360 one.

00:38:39.280 Maybe

00:38:39.660 technical

00:38:40.700 limitations?

00:38:42.620 Maybe

00:38:43.000 there's an

00:38:44.040 AI that's

00:38:45.060 not so

00:38:45.580 smart that

00:38:46.900 they can't

00:38:47.300 tell the

00:38:47.620 difference?

00:38:48.580 Is it that

00:38:49.160 people reported

00:38:50.160 some comments

00:38:51.040 and they

00:38:53.060 report maybe

00:38:53.800 conservative

00:38:54.440 stuff more

00:38:55.080 than others?

00:38:56.580 Maybe.

00:38:57.900 Yeah, I

00:38:58.280 suppose if you

00:38:58.880 really stretch

00:38:59.740 your imagination

00:39:00.280 you could

00:39:00.960 kind of, sort

00:39:02.420 of, imagine

00:39:02.920 some other

00:39:03.600 reason that

00:39:04.060 might be

00:39:04.380 happening.

00:39:05.580 But it's

00:39:06.260 a stretch,

00:39:06.840 isn't it?

00:39:07.640 It's a stretch.

00:39:08.440 We live in a

00:39:08.980 world in which

00:39:09.660 if it looks

00:39:10.680 like it's

00:39:11.580 obvious some

00:39:12.780 bad behavior

00:39:14.000 is happening,

00:39:15.400 it probably

00:39:15.880 is.

00:39:16.640 It probably

00:39:17.420 is.

00:39:19.080 Somebody

00:39:19.520 says YouTube

00:39:20.080 is frozen?

00:39:20.700 It looks

00:39:23.260 like it's

00:39:23.540 working to

00:39:24.040 me.

00:39:25.880 Anyway,

00:39:28.460 Biden is

00:39:29.160 considering

00:39:29.620 putting sanctions

00:39:30.540 on Putin,

00:39:32.260 I guess,

00:39:33.020 over the

00:39:33.660 jailing of

00:39:34.540 Navalny,

00:39:35.320 the Putin

00:39:35.680 critic,

00:39:36.820 and the

00:39:37.220 crackdown on

00:39:37.820 the protests.

00:39:40.040 And there's

00:39:41.080 some intelligence

00:39:41.780 review,

00:39:42.720 blah, blah,

00:39:42.940 blah, blah.

00:39:43.240 What do

00:39:46.060 you think

00:39:46.500 Biden's

00:39:48.080 going to

00:39:48.300 do with

00:39:48.820 Russia?

00:39:50.100 Because they've

00:39:50.780 been criticizing

00:39:51.540 Trump forever,

00:39:53.220 but what else

00:39:54.920 is there to

00:39:55.380 do?

00:39:56.420 Like, how

00:39:56.780 many tools

00:39:58.140 does Biden

00:39:59.260 even have?

00:40:00.720 What the hell

00:40:01.180 is he going

00:40:01.540 to do?

00:40:02.500 I feel as if

00:40:03.400 he's trapped

00:40:04.020 here as he

00:40:04.880 is trapped

00:40:05.360 in many

00:40:05.740 cases,

00:40:06.620 in which he'll

00:40:07.700 end up just

00:40:08.360 doing something

00:40:08.940 that looks

00:40:09.340 like what

00:40:09.740 Trump did.

00:40:10.180 If you

00:40:11.720 look, if

00:40:12.200 you know

00:40:12.660 the Khashoggi

00:40:13.360 story,

00:40:14.120 the Saudi

00:40:15.880 Arabia situation

00:40:16.920 where MBS

00:40:20.080 allegedly ordered

00:40:21.860 the death

00:40:23.540 of Khashoggi,

00:40:24.820 when it

00:40:25.480 came out,

00:40:26.820 Biden did

00:40:27.480 exactly what

00:40:28.520 Trump would

00:40:29.140 have done,

00:40:29.640 which is let

00:40:30.460 the leader

00:40:30.900 slide.

00:40:32.780 Just let

00:40:33.200 it slide.

00:40:34.200 So there's

00:40:34.640 not really

00:40:35.260 any serious

00:40:36.260 difference yet

00:40:36.920 between Biden

00:40:37.800 and Trump

00:40:38.640 on the

00:40:38.980 international

00:40:39.440 stuff.

00:40:39.820 And the

00:40:40.340 things where

00:40:40.740 there's a

00:40:41.100 clear difference

00:40:41.780 seems to

00:40:42.460 be trivial,

00:40:43.900 such as

00:40:44.480 rejoining the

00:40:45.440 Paris Climate

00:40:46.780 Accord.

00:40:47.660 It doesn't

00:40:48.020 really matter.

00:40:49.680 So all the

00:40:50.460 important stuff

00:40:51.140 is the same

00:40:51.720 as Trump,

00:40:52.680 and the

00:40:53.040 unimportant

00:40:53.600 stuff,

00:40:54.160 well,

00:40:54.620 doesn't

00:40:54.940 matter.

00:40:59.000 And I

00:40:59.660 guess Biden

00:41:01.280 is also

00:41:01.760 looking at

00:41:02.220 the reports

00:41:02.680 that Russia

00:41:03.240 allegedly placed

00:41:04.680 bounties on

00:41:05.500 U.S.

00:41:05.920 soldiers in

00:41:06.480 Afghanistan.

00:41:08.160 Now remember

00:41:08.640 that Trump

00:41:09.800 was criticized

00:41:10.800 for not

00:41:11.420 acting on

00:41:12.080 that.

00:41:13.360 But the

00:41:14.060 other part

00:41:14.420 of the

00:41:14.640 story is

00:41:15.160 there was

00:41:15.980 no evidence

00:41:16.700 of it.

00:41:18.500 So Trump

00:41:18.940 was criticized

00:41:19.660 for not

00:41:20.340 acting on

00:41:21.060 what Democrats

00:41:21.860 said was

00:41:22.360 real,

00:41:22.960 but the

00:41:23.760 intelligence

00:41:24.220 agency said

00:41:25.260 we can't

00:41:25.740 find it.

00:41:27.540 And now

00:41:28.060 Biden,

00:41:28.720 being on the

00:41:29.200 side that

00:41:29.940 said it

00:41:30.260 was real,

00:41:31.260 it's his

00:41:31.880 job to do

00:41:32.480 something about

00:41:33.060 the thing

00:41:33.520 that his

00:41:34.540 own people

00:41:35.000 say isn't

00:41:35.560 real,

00:41:36.240 but when he

00:41:36.980 was out of

00:41:37.380 office he

00:41:37.860 said it was

00:41:38.280 real,

00:41:38.840 or his

00:41:39.080 people did.

00:41:39.700 I don't

00:41:39.860 know how

00:41:40.080 much he

00:41:40.400 said about

00:41:40.780 it.

00:41:41.400 So how

00:41:41.640 do you

00:41:41.800 handle that?

00:41:43.360 How do

00:41:43.860 you handle

00:41:44.140 it?

00:41:44.940 I don't

00:41:45.260 know.

00:41:45.620 I think

00:41:45.840 Biden's

00:41:46.260 kind of

00:41:46.660 in a

00:41:47.260 corner.

00:41:51.920 So there's

00:41:52.940 a top-rated

00:41:54.360 Arizona news

00:41:55.220 anchor who

00:41:55.740 resigned because

00:41:56.920 she didn't

00:41:57.740 want to

00:41:58.120 report fake

00:42:00.260 news anymore.

00:42:02.580 This is

00:42:03.200 somebody who

00:42:03.580 worked on a

00:42:04.060 local Fox

00:42:05.140 affiliate,

00:42:06.420 Carrie Lake.

00:42:07.380 she resigned

00:42:08.440 basically because

00:42:09.940 she didn't

00:42:10.280 want to report

00:42:10.800 fake news

00:42:11.380 anymore.

00:42:13.260 Think you'll

00:42:13.980 see more of

00:42:14.440 that?

00:42:14.800 I don't

00:42:15.320 know.

00:42:16.500 So let's

00:42:17.340 talk about

00:42:17.740 Governor Cuomo.

00:42:18.700 He's got his

00:42:19.320 third accuser

00:42:20.400 now.

00:42:21.180 If there's

00:42:21.920 one thing

00:42:22.400 that you

00:42:22.740 can guarantee,

00:42:24.180 if there's

00:42:25.180 a famous

00:42:25.820 politician who

00:42:26.880 has two

00:42:27.500 accusers of

00:42:29.080 sexual harassment,

00:42:30.840 you can bet

00:42:31.960 there'll be a

00:42:32.580 third.

00:42:33.980 You always

00:42:34.800 get the

00:42:35.180 third.

00:42:35.480 third, it

00:42:36.760 must be some

00:42:37.320 law of the

00:42:37.980 universe that

00:42:38.640 if there are

00:42:39.160 two, there

00:42:39.600 are always

00:42:39.980 three.

00:42:40.800 Because when

00:42:41.360 two people

00:42:41.840 come forward,

00:42:43.220 then it

00:42:43.580 becomes a lot

00:42:44.100 easier for

00:42:44.680 the third

00:42:45.080 one to

00:42:45.380 come.

00:42:46.000 And if

00:42:46.280 there are

00:42:46.720 two, there

00:42:47.940 almost certainly

00:42:48.760 are more.

00:42:50.720 So apparently

00:42:52.920 what he said

00:42:53.600 at a public

00:42:56.020 gathering, so

00:42:56.720 this had

00:42:57.020 nothing to do

00:42:57.600 with any of

00:42:58.040 his employees,

00:42:58.860 but this is

00:42:59.300 the latest

00:42:59.780 thing.

00:43:00.760 He was

00:43:01.460 holding some

00:43:02.460 woman by the

00:43:03.140 head, and

00:43:04.360 the alleged

00:43:05.020 ask, can

00:43:05.880 I kiss

00:43:06.320 you?

00:43:07.700 And I

00:43:07.980 don't even

00:43:08.260 think it

00:43:08.560 was somebody

00:43:08.900 who knew

00:43:09.200 that well,

00:43:09.920 just sort

00:43:10.520 of somebody

00:43:10.900 who was

00:43:11.140 interacting

00:43:11.580 with at

00:43:11.960 a bar.

00:43:13.140 And she

00:43:13.660 was offended,

00:43:14.300 and she's

00:43:14.700 talking about

00:43:15.200 this.

00:43:15.540 Now the

00:43:15.800 first thing

00:43:16.160 I'd like

00:43:16.480 to add is

00:43:18.100 that Governor

00:43:18.940 Cuomo really

00:43:20.840 doesn't have

00:43:21.440 much game.

00:43:25.200 He's really

00:43:26.080 lacking

00:43:26.700 something in

00:43:28.880 the flirtation

00:43:29.780 department.

00:43:31.340 There's like a

00:43:31.940 gene missing

00:43:32.720 or something.

00:43:34.380 Because if

00:43:35.120 there's one

00:43:35.520 thing that,

00:43:37.460 let me ask

00:43:38.760 you this to

00:43:40.000 the women

00:43:40.520 watching this.

00:43:42.020 So this

00:43:42.580 question is

00:43:43.140 just for the

00:43:43.620 women.

00:43:44.580 If you're a

00:43:45.100 man, don't

00:43:46.180 answer.

00:43:46.940 Because I

00:43:47.320 want to know

00:43:47.780 that the

00:43:48.040 answer is only

00:43:48.520 from women.

00:43:49.720 For only

00:43:50.600 women, here's

00:43:51.220 the question.

00:43:52.340 What do you

00:43:52.800 think of a

00:43:53.340 man who asks

00:43:55.220 you if he

00:43:55.760 can kiss

00:43:56.180 you?

00:43:58.380 Versus

00:43:58.860 just taking

00:44:00.920 a shot and

00:44:01.700 being turned

00:44:02.340 down or

00:44:02.720 not.

00:44:03.840 What is

00:44:04.140 your feeling

00:44:04.620 of somebody

00:44:05.080 who asks

00:44:05.820 if they

00:44:06.420 can kiss

00:44:07.000 you?

00:44:08.260 Go ahead.

00:44:08.840 Just the

00:44:09.160 women.

00:44:09.760 Just the

00:44:10.280 women.

00:44:13.680 And I

00:44:14.440 won't know

00:44:15.120 exactly if

00:44:15.820 it's just

00:44:16.180 the women

00:44:16.500 answering,

00:44:17.160 so I'll

00:44:17.400 go tell

00:44:17.840 you.

00:44:18.900 Somebody

00:44:19.240 says,

00:44:19.800 yuck,

00:44:20.320 go for

00:44:20.840 it.

00:44:22.180 Lame,

00:44:22.800 weak,

00:44:23.220 insecure,

00:44:24.340 creepy,

00:44:25.820 drunk or

00:44:26.400 drunk of

00:44:26.820 power.

00:44:27.460 No.

00:44:28.440 Depends

00:44:28.780 if you're

00:44:29.100 married.

00:44:30.480 Low T,

00:44:31.200 weak,

00:44:31.640 loser.

00:44:31.900 I think

00:44:32.260 this is

00:44:32.600 the men

00:44:32.900 saying

00:44:33.200 that.

00:44:34.620 Coward.

00:44:36.160 Depends

00:44:36.680 on the

00:44:36.940 man.

00:44:37.900 Asking

00:44:38.300 is lame.

00:44:39.040 Wet

00:44:39.240 blanket.

00:44:40.300 Somebody

00:44:40.520 says I

00:44:40.920 like it.

00:44:43.240 A woman,

00:44:44.160 I assume.

00:44:45.620 Loser,

00:44:46.260 but in

00:44:46.500 this day

00:44:46.920 safer.

00:44:47.680 Wimp,

00:44:48.120 gross,

00:44:48.580 beta.

00:44:49.320 Yes,

00:44:49.760 polite.

00:44:51.040 I see

00:44:51.440 no way

00:44:52.400 buddy.

00:44:54.080 Male

00:44:54.540 feminists.

00:44:55.800 Just looking

00:44:56.260 at your

00:44:56.480 comments.

00:44:56.900 Beta,

00:44:57.540 no,

00:44:58.600 no good.

00:45:00.320 Yeah.

00:45:00.940 Well,

00:45:01.580 so there

00:45:02.040 is not

00:45:02.480 an agreement

00:45:03.860 on this.

00:45:05.240 Here's my

00:45:06.560 best take

00:45:07.280 on this.

00:45:08.580 I do

00:45:09.000 believe we

00:45:09.580 still live

00:45:10.280 in a world

00:45:10.740 where women

00:45:11.580 would prefer

00:45:12.280 you to

00:45:12.860 make the

00:45:13.280 move.

00:45:14.640 I think

00:45:15.040 we live

00:45:15.380 in a world

00:45:15.800 where they

00:45:16.200 prefer that

00:45:17.140 you make

00:45:17.480 the move.

00:45:18.620 But here's

00:45:19.120 the wrinkle.

00:45:20.580 Don't be an

00:45:21.380 idiot about it.

00:45:23.440 Nobody likes

00:45:24.300 it if there

00:45:25.540 are no

00:45:25.900 signs that

00:45:27.500 it would

00:45:27.760 be warranted.

00:45:29.480 Like,

00:45:29.760 if you're

00:45:30.080 trying to

00:45:30.440 kiss somebody

00:45:31.080 and there

00:45:31.940 are no

00:45:32.540 signs that

00:45:34.100 this would

00:45:34.460 be acceptable,

00:45:36.100 well,

00:45:36.380 that's a

00:45:36.700 pretty big

00:45:37.120 problem,

00:45:37.620 and it

00:45:37.960 looks like

00:45:38.400 maybe

00:45:38.760 Governor

00:45:39.860 Cuomo has

00:45:40.640 that problem.

00:45:41.520 We can't

00:45:42.020 tell from

00:45:42.360 one anecdote.

00:45:43.500 But if

00:45:43.880 the anecdote

00:45:44.340 is representative,

00:45:45.580 and we

00:45:45.820 don't know

00:45:46.160 that,

00:45:47.200 it looks

00:45:49.720 like he

00:45:50.060 doesn't have

00:45:50.580 that sensibility.

00:45:52.920 Maybe he

00:45:53.320 can't read

00:45:53.800 people or

00:45:54.920 doesn't care

00:45:55.660 or something,

00:45:56.400 I don't know.

00:45:57.320 But you

00:45:58.400 have to

00:45:58.720 separate the

00:45:59.280 question of

00:45:59.840 whether somebody

00:46:00.580 makes a

00:46:01.200 move without

00:46:01.900 asking from

00:46:03.540 the question

00:46:04.080 of do they

00:46:04.760 have enough

00:46:05.260 sensibility to

00:46:06.840 know when

00:46:07.280 that makes

00:46:07.740 sense and

00:46:08.180 when it

00:46:08.460 doesn't.

00:46:09.620 I don't

00:46:10.360 believe in

00:46:11.240 my whole

00:46:11.660 life I've

00:46:12.320 ever,

00:46:13.560 oh,

00:46:13.880 I'm sure

00:46:14.220 I'm wrong.

00:46:15.480 I'm sure

00:46:16.100 as soon as

00:46:16.500 I say this,

00:46:17.660 somebody from

00:46:18.220 my past will

00:46:18.880 come and say,

00:46:19.780 well,

00:46:19.920 that's not

00:46:20.260 true.

00:46:21.460 I can't

00:46:22.180 think of

00:46:22.620 any time I've

00:46:23.380 ever tried

00:46:23.800 to kiss

00:46:24.280 anybody where

00:46:25.520 I didn't

00:46:25.800 have a good

00:46:26.360 idea I could

00:46:27.020 get away

00:46:27.400 with it.

00:46:30.380 I mean,

00:46:31.020 I'm searching

00:46:31.560 my data

00:46:32.100 memory for

00:46:33.180 decades,

00:46:34.540 I can't

00:46:34.820 think of

00:46:35.280 a time.

00:46:36.720 And have

00:46:37.500 you?

00:46:38.280 Have you

00:46:38.580 ever tried

00:46:38.940 to kiss

00:46:39.300 somebody who

00:46:39.880 had not

00:46:40.260 shown you

00:46:40.760 that they

00:46:41.060 were interested?

00:46:43.600 I mean,

00:46:43.980 it happens

00:46:44.360 a lot,

00:46:44.940 apparently.

00:46:47.280 And because

00:46:49.200 it's slow

00:46:49.720 news time,

00:46:51.280 Cuomo's

00:46:51.780 getting extra

00:46:52.640 lambasted

00:46:54.100 here.

00:46:55.180 Now,

00:46:55.660 there's also

00:46:56.420 some photos

00:46:58.320 of him

00:46:58.820 having,

00:46:59.520 I guess,

00:47:00.580 dinner and

00:47:01.280 some drinks

00:47:01.820 with a

00:47:02.460 female aide.

00:47:04.240 And there's

00:47:04.700 some indication

00:47:05.460 from the

00:47:06.020 photo,

00:47:06.540 but it's a

00:47:06.920 little hard

00:47:07.320 to tell,

00:47:08.100 that his

00:47:08.440 hand under

00:47:09.160 the table

00:47:09.580 might have

00:47:10.000 been on

00:47:10.360 her leg.

00:47:11.860 Now,

00:47:12.600 you can't

00:47:13.120 tell from

00:47:13.560 the photo,

00:47:14.920 but the

00:47:15.280 photo does

00:47:16.040 at least

00:47:16.500 suggest that

00:47:17.460 his hand is

00:47:18.140 extended a

00:47:18.980 little bit.

00:47:20.260 Might be on

00:47:20.820 a leg,

00:47:21.560 it could

00:47:24.640 be just

00:47:25.000 on the

00:47:25.480 bench

00:47:26.800 next to

00:47:27.440 them,

00:47:27.620 you can't

00:47:27.980 tell.

00:47:29.240 But,

00:47:29.800 of course,

00:47:31.720 since we're

00:47:32.220 primed to

00:47:33.000 think it's

00:47:33.420 bad,

00:47:34.080 it looks

00:47:34.340 bad.

00:47:34.980 Now,

00:47:35.460 I'll tell

00:47:35.720 you,

00:47:35.860 he's making

00:47:36.260 the Pence

00:47:36.720 rule look

00:47:37.180 good.

00:47:38.260 The Mike

00:47:39.120 Pence rule

00:47:39.660 that he

00:47:39.940 would not

00:47:40.320 have a

00:47:41.260 meal,

00:47:42.140 he won't

00:47:42.540 go to

00:47:42.820 lunch with

00:47:43.920 just a

00:47:44.320 woman,

00:47:45.060 unless

00:47:45.660 somebody else

00:47:46.120 is there

00:47:46.460 or else

00:47:46.700 he brings

00:47:46.980 his wife.

00:47:48.100 Now,

00:47:48.300 the Pence

00:47:48.580 rule sounded

00:47:49.140 ridiculous.

00:47:50.820 The first

00:47:51.580 time you

00:47:51.880 ever heard

00:47:52.300 it,

00:47:52.900 didn't it?

00:47:53.620 The first

00:47:54.200 time you

00:47:54.540 heard that,

00:47:55.060 it's like,

00:47:55.340 are you

00:47:55.620 serious,

00:47:57.040 Mike Pence?

00:47:57.600 In a

00:47:57.980 business

00:47:58.360 setting,

00:47:59.320 you would

00:48:00.040 not go

00:48:00.460 to lunch,

00:48:01.640 a business

00:48:02.240 lunch,

00:48:03.540 with a

00:48:04.000 female who

00:48:06.640 had every

00:48:07.300 right to be

00:48:07.780 there and

00:48:08.280 you had

00:48:08.520 business.

00:48:09.140 You wouldn't

00:48:09.640 do that.

00:48:11.460 Didn't that

00:48:11.900 seem like the

00:48:12.600 dumbest thing?

00:48:13.940 Yeah.

00:48:15.560 Not so much

00:48:16.420 now.

00:48:17.700 This is why.

00:48:18.400 And we're

00:48:19.400 also seeing

00:48:19.900 Republican

00:48:20.580 Representative

00:48:21.280 Madison

00:48:21.960 Cawthorn,

00:48:23.240 a young,

00:48:24.220 very young

00:48:24.760 guy,

00:48:25.460 who's being

00:48:25.820 blamed for

00:48:26.220 things he

00:48:26.520 did in

00:48:26.780 college that

00:48:27.840 made women

00:48:28.460 uncomfortable.

00:48:30.120 And so I

00:48:30.460 asked this

00:48:31.040 online.

00:48:32.260 I said,

00:48:33.320 what percent

00:48:33.940 of men

00:48:36.220 do you

00:48:38.560 think have

00:48:39.600 engaged in

00:48:40.520 something that

00:48:41.140 was sexually

00:48:43.220 inappropriate,

00:48:44.680 by modern

00:48:45.440 standards,

00:48:46.160 sexually

00:48:46.560 inappropriate,

00:48:47.040 either sexual

00:48:48.300 harassment,

00:48:49.120 words,

00:48:49.800 touching,

00:48:50.280 any of that

00:48:50.860 stuff?

00:48:51.420 What percentage

00:48:52.220 of adult

00:48:53.080 men do you

00:48:53.600 think have

00:48:54.240 participated in

00:48:55.140 that?

00:48:56.160 Now, if you

00:48:56.960 look at my

00:48:57.400 survey, it's

00:48:58.080 interesting because

00:48:58.820 the answers are

00:48:59.700 really spread.

00:49:02.360 There are just

00:49:03.720 as many people

00:49:04.420 who think only

00:49:05.200 20% of men

00:49:06.700 ish have

00:49:08.700 ever done

00:49:09.220 that as

00:49:10.380 there are

00:49:10.640 people who

00:49:11.080 think that

00:49:11.420 90% of

00:49:12.320 men have

00:49:12.660 done that.

00:49:14.200 Think about

00:49:14.640 that.

00:49:15.180 Just as many

00:49:15.800 people think

00:49:16.420 20% of

00:49:17.280 men are

00:49:17.840 sexual

00:49:18.220 harassers as

00:49:19.420 there are

00:49:19.700 who think

00:49:20.060 90%.

00:49:21.120 That's a

00:49:23.080 big difference.

00:49:24.080 And then the

00:49:24.440 middle is sort

00:49:25.060 of just

00:49:25.400 smeared.

00:49:27.060 In other

00:49:27.380 words, there

00:49:29.280 is a

00:49:29.620 gigantic

00:49:30.340 difference

00:49:31.000 between what

00:49:32.800 people would

00:49:33.600 call, and

00:49:34.320 I'm going to

00:49:34.580 put this in

00:49:35.060 big air

00:49:35.500 quotes,

00:49:36.100 normal.

00:49:37.240 Now, in

00:49:37.740 this case,

00:49:38.240 normal is

00:49:39.160 illegal,

00:49:40.320 literally

00:49:41.200 illegal,

00:49:41.700 if you

00:49:42.960 think it's

00:49:43.380 normal to

00:49:44.640 be sexually

00:49:45.320 harassing

00:49:45.780 somebody in

00:49:46.340 the office.

00:49:47.200 Literally

00:49:47.620 illegal, at

00:49:48.320 least inappropriate,

00:49:49.480 at the very

00:49:50.180 least.

00:49:51.580 But what

00:49:52.180 percentage of

00:49:52.880 men do you

00:49:53.200 think you

00:49:53.480 have done

00:49:54.040 that over

00:49:54.560 their lifetime?

00:49:56.220 I feel it's

00:49:57.220 close to

00:49:57.660 100%.

00:49:58.480 It's definitely

00:49:59.700 90%.

00:50:00.580 It's definitely

00:50:01.420 not 20%.

00:50:02.760 And if you

00:50:05.660 know any

00:50:06.520 women who

00:50:07.340 are attractive,

00:50:08.460 and I hope

00:50:08.980 you do, ask

00:50:10.900 them how

00:50:11.380 many times

00:50:12.080 they have

00:50:12.520 been sexually

00:50:13.520 harassed in

00:50:14.540 their lifetime.

00:50:15.740 Or I could

00:50:16.260 even make it

00:50:16.760 simpler.

00:50:17.860 Ask them how

00:50:18.400 many times

00:50:18.840 they've been

00:50:19.220 sexually harassed

00:50:20.300 this week.

00:50:22.720 Just this

00:50:23.480 week.

00:50:24.660 Do you know

00:50:25.260 how many times

00:50:25.840 an attractive

00:50:26.520 woman gets

00:50:27.540 sexually harassed

00:50:28.600 in just one

00:50:29.700 week?

00:50:30.800 It's insane.

00:50:33.000 It's just

00:50:33.840 off the

00:50:34.220 chart.

00:50:35.300 It is so

00:50:36.360 mind-boggling

00:50:37.960 that you can't

00:50:38.580 even believe

00:50:39.020 it.

00:50:39.700 Now, I

00:50:40.020 happen to

00:50:40.360 be married

00:50:41.100 to an

00:50:41.680 unusually

00:50:42.240 attractive

00:50:42.840 woman, so

00:50:43.360 I get to

00:50:43.720 hear the

00:50:44.100 first-hand

00:50:44.640 stories of

00:50:45.400 things that

00:50:46.480 happen today,

00:50:47.700 but also

00:50:48.440 have happened

00:50:49.520 a whole life,

00:50:50.680 and you

00:50:51.460 can't even

00:50:52.180 believe it.

00:50:53.660 It is so

00:50:54.520 beyond anything

00:50:56.800 that a man

00:50:57.440 could even

00:50:58.040 really just

00:50:58.840 understand.

00:51:00.160 I mean, it

00:51:00.580 is so bad.

00:51:02.940 And of course,

00:51:03.620 one assumes

00:51:04.460 that the

00:51:05.400 higher you

00:51:05.880 get in the

00:51:06.500 desirability

00:51:07.220 index, the

00:51:07.860 worse it is.

00:51:08.580 Because people

00:51:09.400 being people.

00:51:10.540 But then I

00:51:11.020 ask the

00:51:11.420 separate question.

00:51:13.240 How many

00:51:13.640 men have

00:51:14.720 been sexually

00:51:15.500 harassed at

00:51:16.240 work, given

00:51:18.140 today's modern

00:51:19.140 standards of

00:51:19.980 what it means

00:51:20.520 to be sexually

00:51:21.240 harassed?

00:51:22.360 How do you

00:51:23.180 think that

00:51:23.520 came out?

00:51:24.980 A lot.

00:51:26.460 A lot of

00:51:27.400 men, over

00:51:28.260 50%, have

00:51:29.960 been sexually

00:51:30.580 harassed at

00:51:31.140 work by

00:51:31.640 modern standards.

00:51:33.180 Over 50%.

00:51:34.020 50%.

00:51:34.800 And the

00:51:35.860 ones that

00:51:36.240 have not,

00:51:37.500 they're not

00:51:39.480 your good

00:51:39.800 looking men.

00:51:42.720 I can say

00:51:43.540 this about

00:51:44.000 men.

00:51:44.420 I wouldn't

00:51:44.760 say the

00:51:45.100 same thing

00:51:45.480 about women.

00:51:46.620 Because women,

00:51:47.420 I think, are

00:51:47.780 closer to

00:51:48.420 universally sexually

00:51:49.940 harassed.

00:51:50.520 It's close to

00:51:51.280 all of them.

00:51:52.420 With men, it's

00:51:53.240 probably close to

00:51:53.900 half.

00:51:55.000 And it's the

00:51:55.560 half that are

00:51:56.580 more attractive

00:51:57.180 to women.

00:51:58.700 And to gay

00:51:59.620 men, I suppose.

00:52:00.460 Because it's

00:52:00.840 a little

00:52:01.100 bowl.

00:52:02.000 Now, I

00:52:02.460 would say

00:52:02.760 that I've

00:52:03.160 been sexually

00:52:04.060 harassed a

00:52:05.740 bunch of

00:52:06.140 times.

00:52:07.260 I mean, I

00:52:07.640 don't even

00:52:08.040 know how to

00:52:08.320 put a number

00:52:08.920 on it.

00:52:09.840 By modern

00:52:10.680 standards, I've

00:52:12.400 been sexually

00:52:12.980 harassed in

00:52:13.500 the workplace

00:52:14.160 25 times,

00:52:16.820 100 times,

00:52:17.700 I don't know

00:52:18.080 how many times,

00:52:18.760 by modern

00:52:19.320 standards.

00:52:21.060 So I guess

00:52:21.800 I'm like at

00:52:22.480 the bottom of

00:52:23.240 the 50% who,

00:52:24.860 at least when I

00:52:25.380 was young, was

00:52:26.020 worthy of

00:52:26.660 harassing by

00:52:27.880 somebody.

00:52:28.260 Now, I

00:52:30.560 don't think

00:52:30.860 that's even

00:52:31.260 unusual, right?

00:52:32.820 Because if

00:52:33.260 you're counting

00:52:34.180 any off-color

00:52:35.260 joke that

00:52:36.320 was initiated

00:52:37.000 by somebody

00:52:37.680 else, have

00:52:38.840 you ever

00:52:39.100 been the

00:52:40.040 subject of

00:52:40.680 an off-color

00:52:41.520 sexual comment

00:52:43.440 by a woman

00:52:44.080 in the office

00:52:44.720 that you

00:52:45.160 did not

00:52:45.660 start?

00:52:47.000 Of course

00:52:47.360 you have.

00:52:48.140 Of course

00:52:48.540 you have.

00:52:49.040 So if you

00:52:49.440 take it all

00:52:49.880 the way to

00:52:50.520 inappropriate

00:52:51.540 comments by

00:52:52.840 modern standards,

00:52:54.680 yeah, we've

00:52:55.580 all been in

00:52:56.000 that.

00:52:56.160 So this

00:52:58.140 is not

00:53:00.340 meant as

00:53:00.760 any kind

00:53:01.160 of softener

00:53:04.400 or anything

00:53:04.940 for what

00:53:06.260 Governor Cuomo

00:53:06.940 is doing,

00:53:07.820 but it's

00:53:08.380 good context

00:53:09.100 that he's

00:53:10.620 somewhat

00:53:11.120 universally

00:53:11.960 in a category

00:53:13.300 of bad

00:53:13.820 behavior.

00:53:16.120 But that

00:53:16.860 won't matter

00:53:17.400 because it's

00:53:18.540 political.

00:53:20.660 Let me teach

00:53:21.500 you something

00:53:21.860 about willpower.

00:53:23.000 I told you

00:53:23.380 that I would

00:53:23.980 teach you at

00:53:24.540 least one

00:53:24.980 thing every

00:53:25.460 day.

00:53:26.160 Or reinforce

00:53:27.060 something that's

00:53:28.220 worth reinforcing.

00:53:29.640 But I do it

00:53:30.200 through the lens

00:53:30.780 of current

00:53:31.300 events.

00:53:32.140 And this is

00:53:32.640 that time.

00:53:34.880 Here's a

00:53:35.440 topic which

00:53:36.140 I've spoken

00:53:37.020 on before,

00:53:37.860 but when you

00:53:38.200 have a perfect

00:53:38.740 example for it,

00:53:39.940 it helps.

00:53:42.000 Here's a

00:53:43.060 filter to see

00:53:43.940 the world.

00:53:45.120 When I talk

00:53:45.560 about filters,

00:53:46.720 I think I'm

00:53:47.800 going to sneeze

00:53:48.260 in a moment,

00:53:48.880 so excuse me.

00:53:50.080 When I talk

00:53:50.620 about filters,

00:53:51.360 I don't mean

00:53:51.820 what is true

00:53:52.660 or not true.

00:53:53.980 So nothing

00:53:55.160 about this

00:53:55.760 is truth

00:53:56.380 or reality.

00:53:58.100 It's about

00:53:58.540 choosing a

00:53:59.460 filter for

00:54:00.420 looking at

00:54:00.880 your life

00:54:01.960 and your

00:54:02.260 situation

00:54:02.740 that's a

00:54:03.920 useful filter.

00:54:05.420 It doesn't

00:54:05.740 mean it's

00:54:06.040 right.

00:54:06.880 It doesn't

00:54:07.340 mean it's

00:54:07.620 better than

00:54:08.000 other filters.

00:54:08.920 It just

00:54:09.280 means it's

00:54:09.660 useful.

00:54:10.720 Here's one

00:54:11.200 that's useful.

00:54:12.900 Get rid of

00:54:13.540 the idea that

00:54:14.240 free will

00:54:14.780 exists.

00:54:15.780 You can

00:54:16.100 still keep

00:54:16.580 it.

00:54:17.440 You can

00:54:17.880 still keep

00:54:18.400 as one

00:54:18.880 filter that

00:54:19.980 free will

00:54:20.480 is a real

00:54:20.920 thing.

00:54:21.220 In fact,

00:54:21.940 our legal

00:54:22.380 system requires

00:54:24.000 it.

00:54:24.780 In order to

00:54:25.600 punish somebody

00:54:26.480 for a crime,

00:54:27.740 which is

00:54:28.060 necessary to

00:54:28.980 reduce the

00:54:30.140 number of

00:54:30.540 crimes,

00:54:31.600 you have to

00:54:32.240 treat them

00:54:33.160 as though they

00:54:33.800 have free will

00:54:34.480 and that they

00:54:35.100 chose to do

00:54:35.840 the crime.

00:54:36.760 You can't

00:54:37.260 change that.

00:54:37.920 Nobody's come

00:54:38.460 up with a

00:54:38.800 better system.

00:54:39.860 If they do,

00:54:40.420 they'd be great.

00:54:41.020 But we don't

00:54:41.500 have a better

00:54:42.120 system.

00:54:42.980 You have to

00:54:43.800 pretend for

00:54:45.560 the legal

00:54:46.120 system to

00:54:46.780 work.

00:54:47.740 You have to

00:54:48.220 pretend,

00:54:49.340 and that's

00:54:49.640 what a filter

00:54:50.140 is,

00:54:50.580 it's

00:54:50.780 pretending.

00:54:52.180 The free

00:54:52.620 will is a

00:54:53.140 real thing

00:54:53.520 and exists.

00:54:54.760 But when

00:54:55.860 you're trying

00:54:56.220 to decide

00:54:56.740 how to

00:54:57.120 feel about

00:54:57.660 something,

00:54:58.580 you don't

00:54:58.940 have to

00:54:59.240 use that.

00:55:00.080 If you're

00:55:00.500 in the

00:55:00.720 legal system,

00:55:01.360 you have

00:55:01.660 to.

00:55:02.480 Outside

00:55:02.860 it,

00:55:03.140 you don't

00:55:03.420 have to.

00:55:03.820 So you

00:55:04.040 could have

00:55:04.260 a different

00:55:04.600 filter outside

00:55:05.220 the legal

00:55:05.600 system,

00:55:06.340 and this

00:55:06.840 is the

00:55:07.080 one that

00:55:07.380 I use

00:55:07.900 the most.

00:55:08.940 People

00:55:09.300 have urges.

00:55:10.960 Some

00:55:11.240 people have

00:55:11.700 more urges.

00:55:12.780 Some

00:55:12.980 people are

00:55:13.560 hornier

00:55:14.700 than other

00:55:15.120 people.

00:55:16.060 Some

00:55:16.260 people are

00:55:17.940 more selfish.

00:55:19.460 Some

00:55:19.640 people are

00:55:20.000 more afraid.

00:55:21.720 Some

00:55:21.920 people just

00:55:23.600 have different

00:55:24.100 levels of

00:55:24.860 urges.

00:55:26.580 If these

00:55:27.420 urges are

00:55:28.000 low,

00:55:28.760 it's easy

00:55:29.340 for you to

00:55:29.800 stay below

00:55:30.300 the line of

00:55:31.060 bad behavior

00:55:31.760 in any

00:55:32.500 field.

00:55:33.120 Because you

00:55:33.740 don't want

00:55:34.160 to.

00:55:35.060 No effort

00:55:35.880 at all.

00:55:36.260 Well, I don't

00:55:36.960 really even

00:55:37.580 want to do

00:55:38.320 that.

00:55:39.100 I don't have

00:55:39.580 much urge.

00:55:40.180 urge.

00:55:40.900 But as

00:55:41.260 your urge

00:55:41.860 increases,

00:55:43.220 let's say

00:55:43.740 you're getting

00:55:44.140 into a

00:55:44.800 flirty

00:55:45.240 situation or

00:55:47.060 somebody that's

00:55:47.700 starting to

00:55:48.260 activate your

00:55:49.080 mating reflex,

00:55:50.660 there is a

00:55:51.340 point for

00:55:51.920 men, and

00:55:52.920 by the way,

00:55:53.440 can the men

00:55:53.940 watching this

00:55:54.560 confirm this

00:55:55.380 for the

00:55:56.280 benefit of the

00:55:56.840 women?

00:55:57.520 Because I

00:55:57.860 don't know

00:55:58.140 what it's

00:55:58.420 like to be

00:55:58.800 a woman.

00:55:59.400 I can only

00:55:59.940 speak to a

00:56:00.520 male experience,

00:56:01.800 but I feel

00:56:02.360 I can generalize

00:56:03.340 for the

00:56:04.060 male experience.

00:56:04.880 when you

00:56:06.240 get horny

00:56:06.920 enough, your

00:56:08.500 brain turns

00:56:09.800 off.

00:56:11.020 And I'm

00:56:11.460 pretty sure

00:56:11.980 we're designed

00:56:12.600 that way.

00:56:13.780 I feel like

00:56:14.580 that's a

00:56:15.020 feature and

00:56:16.360 not a flaw.

00:56:17.540 Because if

00:56:18.300 you had

00:56:19.420 complete common

00:56:20.300 sense, you

00:56:21.780 would never

00:56:22.180 mate.

00:56:23.820 You wouldn't.

00:56:25.000 Because if you

00:56:25.700 just did a

00:56:26.880 cost-benefit

00:56:27.720 analysis of

00:56:28.540 having children

00:56:29.240 and stuff,

00:56:30.800 some people

00:56:31.540 would still

00:56:31.900 do it, but

00:56:33.000 a lot of

00:56:33.560 people wouldn't.

00:56:34.800 So you

00:56:35.680 have to

00:56:36.000 believe that

00:56:36.420 we evolved

00:56:37.120 in a way

00:56:37.660 that for

00:56:38.800 men, it's

00:56:39.480 probably

00:56:40.220 evolution put

00:56:41.780 this in there

00:56:42.340 for a reason.

00:56:43.520 You know,

00:56:43.980 you're not

00:56:44.340 going to have

00:56:44.780 quite as

00:56:45.560 many babies

00:56:46.320 if you

00:56:47.260 think about

00:56:47.860 it.

00:56:48.520 So we're

00:56:49.160 going to

00:56:49.360 turn off

00:56:49.800 your brain

00:56:50.480 in any of

00:56:51.360 those situations

00:56:52.040 where mating

00:56:52.720 is a possibility

00:56:53.560 or you

00:56:54.000 think it is.

00:56:55.460 So brain

00:56:56.220 turns off

00:56:56.840 at about

00:56:57.660 this point

00:56:58.160 and then

00:56:58.580 bad behavior

00:56:59.320 happens.

00:57:00.220 Now,

00:57:01.040 whoa,

00:57:01.800 let me talk

00:57:02.460 to the dumb

00:57:02.920 people for a

00:57:03.500 minute.

00:57:04.240 Smart

00:57:04.640 people,

00:57:05.440 take a

00:57:06.260 little break.

00:57:07.720 This next

00:57:08.340 part is only

00:57:09.100 for any

00:57:09.540 dumb people

00:57:10.040 who came

00:57:10.360 in because

00:57:11.340 this is an

00:57:12.220 open live

00:57:12.780 stream.

00:57:13.600 The regulars

00:57:14.300 are all

00:57:14.600 smart.

00:57:15.080 You don't

00:57:15.300 need this

00:57:15.640 at all.

00:57:16.680 So what I'm

00:57:17.060 going to say

00:57:17.460 is completely

00:57:18.140 useless for

00:57:18.800 the smart

00:57:19.160 people.

00:57:19.800 But for the

00:57:20.300 dumb people

00:57:20.740 who came

00:57:21.060 in, this

00:57:21.820 is going

00:57:22.060 to be

00:57:22.200 really

00:57:22.420 important.

00:57:25.000 I'm not

00:57:25.720 actually

00:57:26.300 defending

00:57:26.860 bad behavior.

00:57:28.260 Again,

00:57:28.620 this is just

00:57:29.060 for the dumb

00:57:29.460 people.

00:57:29.720 I know

00:57:30.980 it seems

00:57:31.360 like I

00:57:31.760 am.

00:57:33.020 Because I

00:57:33.420 said, wait,

00:57:34.060 your brain

00:57:34.460 turned off

00:57:35.040 and you

00:57:35.920 don't have

00:57:36.340 free will.

00:57:38.000 Therefore,

00:57:38.600 the bad

00:57:38.860 behavior is

00:57:39.280 going to

00:57:39.440 happen.

00:57:40.200 So the

00:57:40.600 dumb people

00:57:41.480 now, you're

00:57:41.980 thinking, I

00:57:42.620 think you

00:57:43.160 just said

00:57:43.720 that Governor

00:57:44.780 Cuomo can

00:57:45.500 rape anybody

00:57:46.200 he wants.

00:57:46.760 No, no, I

00:57:49.600 didn't say

00:57:50.060 that.

00:57:50.940 I said the

00:57:51.320 opposite, that

00:57:52.340 in terms of

00:57:53.060 the legal

00:57:53.920 system, you

00:57:54.960 have to act

00:57:55.500 like all

00:57:55.860 this is

00:57:56.220 real.

00:57:56.900 But you're

00:57:57.380 acting.

00:57:58.220 It's just

00:57:58.600 an act.

00:57:59.360 You have

00:57:59.740 to do it

00:58:00.060 though.

00:58:01.980 So this

00:58:03.260 graph, you

00:58:03.800 could argue

00:58:04.240 it's either

00:58:04.720 time or

00:58:05.240 opportunity

00:58:05.740 because they're

00:58:06.400 somewhat

00:58:06.700 adjusted.

00:58:07.720 And then to

00:58:08.060 the earlier

00:58:08.540 comment, where

00:58:11.180 this line is,

00:58:12.080 the bad

00:58:12.440 behavior line,

00:58:13.320 let's say we're

00:58:13.860 just talking

00:58:14.240 about sexual

00:58:14.840 harassment, where

00:58:16.140 this line is,

00:58:17.280 is a little

00:58:17.800 bit subjective.

00:58:20.320 Meaning that, I

00:58:21.760 hate to say

00:58:22.240 it, but if

00:58:23.320 somebody is

00:58:24.040 funnier, they

00:58:25.640 can get away

00:58:26.180 with more.

00:58:27.320 If you don't

00:58:28.360 have any sense

00:58:29.020 of humor and

00:58:29.560 you try to

00:58:29.960 tell a sexually

00:58:31.600 suggestive joke,

00:58:33.820 well, welcome

00:58:34.700 to human

00:58:35.220 resources.

00:58:36.240 Because that

00:58:36.860 wasn't funny,

00:58:38.060 it was just

00:58:38.760 offensive.

00:58:39.900 But if you

00:58:40.500 pull it off,

00:58:41.700 let's say I

00:58:42.340 tell some joke

00:58:43.560 that's sexually

00:58:44.460 offensive, people

00:58:45.960 I hope, would

00:58:46.760 say, oh, wait

00:58:47.400 a minute, that

00:58:47.760 guy is a

00:58:48.340 professional

00:58:48.880 humorist, his

00:58:50.480 intention is

00:58:51.380 just to be

00:58:51.880 funny.

00:58:52.720 He's not

00:58:53.060 trying to

00:58:53.500 insult anybody.

00:58:55.140 Humor is the

00:58:55.960 point, I'm

00:58:57.020 laughing, I

00:58:57.680 get it, okay,

00:58:58.480 I'll let that

00:58:59.140 go.

00:58:59.820 So this line

00:59:00.900 does change if

00:59:01.920 you're funnier.

00:59:03.460 Does Governor

00:59:04.100 Cuomo have the

00:59:05.180 kind of sense

00:59:05.980 of humor where

00:59:07.320 he could lower

00:59:08.060 this, no, I

00:59:09.300 guess raise the

00:59:10.160 bar, so that

00:59:11.620 people say, ah,

00:59:12.460 I get it, that's

00:59:13.100 just a joke?

00:59:14.700 Apparently not.

00:59:17.340 Apparently he

00:59:17.980 doesn't have that

00:59:18.760 kind of sense of

00:59:19.420 humor, but maybe

00:59:20.660 he thinks he

00:59:21.460 does.

00:59:22.560 And that looks

00:59:23.100 like the

00:59:23.420 problem.

00:59:23.980 Because he

00:59:24.360 said directly, I

00:59:25.760 thought I was

00:59:26.300 being funny.

00:59:28.400 But I'll bet

00:59:29.100 there will be no

00:59:29.800 example that you'll

00:59:30.740 ever hear of

00:59:32.040 something he said

00:59:32.900 where you would

00:59:33.400 say to yourself,

00:59:34.000 yeah, okay, that

00:59:34.620 was kind of

00:59:35.020 funny.

00:59:35.960 I'll bet nothing

00:59:36.900 like that.

00:59:37.880 I'll bet everything

00:59:38.640 that he thought was

00:59:39.520 funny, if you

00:59:41.020 heard it, you

00:59:41.780 would say, hmm,

00:59:42.700 not so much.

00:59:44.600 And the second

00:59:45.420 thing is your

00:59:45.900 hotness.

00:59:46.860 We're not

00:59:47.500 supposed to talk

00:59:48.120 about this.

00:59:49.360 But whether

00:59:49.860 you're male or

00:59:50.620 female, your

00:59:54.000 hotness level is

00:59:55.140 going to adjust

00:59:56.040 this whole graph,

00:59:57.100 right?

00:59:57.620 Because if you're

00:59:58.860 not attractive,

01:00:01.160 people are not

01:00:02.640 going to have the

01:00:03.040 same urge, it

01:00:03.980 will be easier

01:00:04.600 for them to

01:00:05.240 avoid it.

01:00:07.180 So that's your

01:00:08.540 model.

01:00:09.420 It is not the

01:00:10.200 only model to

01:00:11.100 understand life.

01:00:11.960 Like I said,

01:00:12.940 the criminal

01:00:15.000 justice has to

01:00:15.780 be different.

01:00:16.680 But I find it

01:00:17.640 always useful when

01:00:18.620 you're trying to

01:00:19.780 decide how to

01:00:20.400 feel about any

01:00:21.400 of this to

01:00:21.840 have this

01:00:22.240 context.

01:00:24.260 All right.

01:00:27.520 If we're being

01:00:28.340 objective at all

01:00:29.200 about Governor

01:00:32.860 Cuomo, I feel

01:00:35.300 like you have to

01:00:35.820 be a little bit

01:00:36.720 glass half full

01:00:37.780 sometimes because

01:00:38.900 you could be

01:00:39.360 overwhelmed with

01:00:40.120 negativity.

01:00:41.500 And I would

01:00:41.880 just like to

01:00:42.380 say, just

01:00:43.380 put it out

01:00:43.800 there, objectively

01:00:45.340 speaking, there's

01:00:46.300 still a lot more

01:00:47.820 people that

01:00:49.360 Governor Cuomo has

01:00:50.620 not killed and

01:00:52.440 not yet sexually

01:00:53.620 harassed.

01:00:54.440 If you were to

01:00:55.200 compare the

01:00:55.720 numbers, the

01:00:56.960 number of people

01:00:57.820 he killed in

01:00:58.380 nursing homes plus

01:00:59.300 the number of

01:00:59.720 people he sexually

01:01:00.400 harassed, very

01:01:01.760 small compared to

01:01:03.540 all the people he

01:01:04.480 hasn't killed and

01:01:05.360 all the people he

01:01:05.920 hasn't sexually

01:01:06.660 harassed.

01:01:07.100 Just keep it in

01:01:07.940 context.

01:01:09.360 That was a joke.

01:01:10.340 For the dumb

01:01:10.720 people, that was

01:01:13.280 a joke.

01:01:16.060 All right.

01:01:18.600 Seems to me that

01:01:19.500 forcing the people

01:01:21.140 on the vocal

01:01:21.980 left to live by

01:01:23.520 their own rules is

01:01:24.680 working quite well.

01:01:25.620 It's working with

01:01:26.240 the Cuomo thing.

01:01:28.060 Here's some other

01:01:28.580 examples that I

01:01:29.260 thought were funny.

01:01:30.340 I just saw this on

01:01:31.200 the internet that a

01:01:33.280 lot of so-called

01:01:34.760 racist images are

01:01:35.880 being removed from

01:01:36.920 old food products.

01:01:38.920 So Aunt Jemima's

01:01:40.060 going away, Uncle

01:01:41.740 Ben, Land and

01:01:42.780 Lakes, they all

01:01:43.840 decided that their

01:01:44.640 imagery was a

01:01:45.520 little too racist.

01:01:47.500 But what's the

01:01:48.460 outcome of that?

01:01:50.340 What is the

01:01:50.980 predictable outcome

01:01:52.000 of that?

01:01:53.620 Well, it turns out

01:01:54.540 the predictable

01:01:55.080 outcome is that all

01:01:56.160 the remaining faces

01:01:57.120 are white.

01:01:58.340 So you go into

01:01:58.920 your grocery store

01:01:59.640 and there are no

01:02:00.100 people of color on

01:02:01.020 your packaging

01:02:01.560 because they were

01:02:02.280 all removed.

01:02:03.680 Is that what they

01:02:04.500 wanted?

01:02:05.880 Now they got what

01:02:07.440 they wanted, so

01:02:08.780 what happens if you

01:02:09.580 just keep giving the

01:02:10.560 left what they

01:02:11.500 want?

01:02:12.800 Do they get what

01:02:13.740 they want if you

01:02:14.880 give them what they

01:02:15.440 asked for?

01:02:17.020 That's where we're

01:02:17.740 at.

01:02:19.460 So the left pretty

01:02:20.520 much had to cancel

01:02:21.420 Al Franken because

01:02:22.420 that was sort of

01:02:23.140 their thing.

01:02:24.620 They kind of had

01:02:25.580 to.

01:02:26.160 And I think they

01:02:26.820 will have to cancel

01:02:27.820 Andrew Cuomo.

01:02:28.940 There's really no

01:02:29.540 choice for that.

01:02:30.860 I mean, I don't

01:02:32.340 think he could

01:02:33.000 survive this.

01:02:33.780 I don't think so,

01:02:35.400 but maybe.

01:02:37.420 And then even

01:02:38.360 letting Portland go

01:02:39.700 ahead with their

01:02:40.480 autonomous zones and

01:02:42.080 whatever, all of

01:02:43.740 that has the

01:02:46.400 benefit of letting

01:02:47.140 people get what

01:02:47.800 they want to find

01:02:48.760 out they didn't

01:02:49.320 want it.

01:02:49.740 It's like letting

01:02:50.320 the dog catch the

01:02:51.220 car.

01:02:52.120 I mean, Biden is

01:02:52.900 the dog that caught

01:02:53.660 the car.

01:02:54.720 Oh, I'm going to

01:02:55.360 go do something

01:02:56.200 really different with

01:02:56.960 the Khashoggi.

01:02:58.000 Okay, maybe I'll do

01:02:58.720 the same thing.

01:03:00.240 I'm going to do

01:03:00.780 something really

01:03:01.240 different with

01:03:01.920 North Korea,

01:03:03.180 except what can

01:03:04.240 you do?

01:03:04.580 I guess I'll do

01:03:05.040 the same thing

01:03:05.520 Trump did.

01:03:06.820 Biden caught the

01:03:07.640 car.

01:03:08.180 Good luck with

01:03:08.960 it.

01:03:11.020 Same with Putin

01:03:11.900 sanctions.

01:03:12.900 Is there anything

01:03:13.380 left?

01:03:14.060 I mean, really?

01:03:15.540 What can Biden

01:03:16.080 do?

01:03:17.620 Right?

01:03:18.660 How about kids

01:03:19.620 in cages?

01:03:21.400 What did Biden

01:03:22.260 do with the kids

01:03:23.040 in cages?

01:03:23.680 Well, he did the

01:03:24.120 only thing he

01:03:24.620 could do.

01:03:24.920 He changed the

01:03:25.400 words.

01:03:26.540 We're going to

01:03:27.020 call them containers.

01:03:28.920 And we're going to

01:03:29.240 have, you know,

01:03:29.960 but they're way

01:03:31.020 better tents.

01:03:32.180 Our tents and

01:03:32.860 containers are

01:03:33.620 way better than

01:03:34.300 these chain-link

01:03:35.560 fence things.

01:03:38.280 All right.

01:03:43.060 And then the

01:03:44.060 transgender sports

01:03:45.620 thing is maybe

01:03:47.040 the most perfect

01:03:48.260 example of this.

01:03:50.660 Because the

01:03:52.260 reason that

01:03:52.760 women's sports

01:03:53.520 exists is because

01:03:54.840 women complained.

01:03:56.080 They were being

01:03:57.000 treated as second

01:03:58.000 class citizens and

01:03:59.540 said, why are

01:04:00.200 all these sports

01:04:00.960 facilities in

01:04:01.700 schools and why

01:04:02.520 can't women be

01:04:03.900 part of that except

01:04:04.720 as cheerleaders?

01:04:05.840 And so, yeah,

01:04:06.680 perfectly reasonable

01:04:07.640 that things even

01:04:09.580 out a bit there.

01:04:10.740 But now the

01:04:11.440 transgenders come

01:04:12.420 along.

01:04:13.740 And once you've

01:04:14.320 opened the door,

01:04:15.640 and I think we all

01:04:16.400 agree women's

01:04:17.480 sports is a good

01:04:18.120 thing.

01:04:18.420 There's nobody on

01:04:18.960 the other side of

01:04:19.500 that, is there?

01:04:20.500 But once you've

01:04:21.200 opened the door,

01:04:22.380 you kind of got to

01:04:23.500 expect the door

01:04:24.300 stays open.

01:04:25.760 Now the

01:04:26.180 transgenders are a

01:04:27.720 threat to women's

01:04:28.820 sports and the

01:04:29.920 way they're not

01:04:30.440 to men's

01:04:30.900 sports.

01:04:32.500 And again, we'll

01:04:36.500 see where that

01:04:37.000 goes.

01:04:37.420 I know you don't

01:04:37.900 like me talking

01:04:38.460 about that topic.

01:04:40.640 There's some

01:04:41.340 interesting drama

01:04:42.840 over at ABC

01:04:43.580 News with George

01:04:45.020 Stephanopoulos and

01:04:46.480 up-and-coming

01:04:47.120 David Muir.

01:04:48.800 And I guess

01:04:49.480 Stephanopoulos was

01:04:50.320 kind of the big

01:04:51.340 chief anchor there,

01:04:53.100 but David Muir is

01:04:54.160 the new up-and-coming

01:04:55.280 person.

01:04:55.660 And here's the

01:04:57.000 interesting part

01:04:57.560 about that.

01:04:58.480 I've watched a lot

01:04:59.540 of George Stephanopoulos

01:05:00.700 and it seems to me

01:05:02.160 he's basically just

01:05:03.540 a Democrat

01:05:04.480 politician who

01:05:06.460 somehow got a

01:05:07.260 news job.

01:05:08.620 Like, he seems

01:05:09.160 like the least

01:05:09.960 objective person

01:05:10.980 on TV, who's

01:05:12.240 not on The View,

01:05:13.220 I suppose.

01:05:14.560 And so, why

01:05:15.640 does a news

01:05:16.600 organization even

01:05:17.560 have someone who

01:05:19.200 isn't even...

01:05:20.800 He doesn't even

01:05:21.380 pretend to be

01:05:22.000 objective, does he?

01:05:23.100 I mean, he's a

01:05:24.520 weird choice for

01:05:25.320 news.

01:05:26.460 He's like the

01:05:27.040 opposite of news.

01:05:28.020 He's an opinion

01:05:28.860 guy, just, you

01:05:30.900 know, pretending to

01:05:32.280 be a news guy.

01:05:34.060 But what about

01:05:34.840 David Muir?

01:05:37.980 In the small

01:05:38.880 world, I spent an

01:05:40.540 afternoon with

01:05:41.220 David Muir a

01:05:42.780 number of years

01:05:43.280 ago, in which he

01:05:44.700 was doing reports

01:05:47.240 and stories and

01:05:47.980 one of those

01:05:48.460 reports was about

01:05:49.380 me.

01:05:50.080 So I spent a

01:05:50.760 whole lot of

01:05:51.120 time with him.

01:05:52.000 You know, sort

01:05:52.380 of hung around

01:05:52.880 all afternoon as

01:05:53.820 he asked

01:05:54.380 questions and

01:05:55.060 put his report

01:05:56.100 together.

01:05:57.080 Great guy.

01:05:58.520 You know, I

01:05:59.480 just enjoyed him

01:06:00.360 as a human

01:06:01.080 being.

01:06:01.540 He was just a

01:06:02.120 great guy.

01:06:03.240 And I can't

01:06:04.420 remember seeing

01:06:05.060 him saying

01:06:05.580 anything on

01:06:06.120 TV that was

01:06:06.740 necessarily super

01:06:08.520 biased.

01:06:10.300 Can you?

01:06:11.120 And I feel as

01:06:12.340 though this is a

01:06:13.000 good change.

01:06:13.860 Maybe it

01:06:14.600 signals something.

01:06:18.820 Jordan

01:06:19.380 Peterson,

01:06:20.780 and apparently

01:06:21.920 had warned at

01:06:23.020 one point,

01:06:24.180 and maybe I

01:06:24.760 think Brett

01:06:25.160 Weinstein might

01:06:25.820 have said this

01:06:26.260 too, that

01:06:27.300 eventually the

01:06:27.980 left would come

01:06:28.680 for the

01:06:29.100 evolutionary

01:06:29.660 biologists.

01:06:32.280 In other

01:06:32.620 words, people

01:06:33.140 were literally

01:06:33.760 just scientists

01:06:34.760 and trying to

01:06:36.040 tell you that

01:06:36.620 evolution got us

01:06:38.740 to where we

01:06:39.220 are.

01:06:39.920 In other

01:06:40.200 words, we have

01:06:41.060 some things

01:06:41.500 baked into us

01:06:42.440 that evolution

01:06:43.740 handed us.

01:06:44.780 It wasn't our

01:06:45.220 choice.

01:06:45.580 scientists, and

01:06:47.580 apparently on a

01:06:49.000 clubhouse event

01:06:51.340 that somebody

01:06:53.260 was challenging

01:06:53.940 Brett Weinstein,

01:06:55.160 who I believe he

01:06:56.220 is an evolutionary

01:06:57.160 biologist, and

01:06:58.340 was saying that

01:06:58.900 that's just another

01:06:59.640 name for a

01:07:00.300 eugenicist.

01:07:02.500 So now

01:07:03.380 evolutionary

01:07:03.980 biologists,

01:07:05.420 people who belong

01:07:06.760 to the science

01:07:07.620 that I thought the

01:07:09.040 left liked,

01:07:09.960 right?

01:07:10.780 Doesn't the left

01:07:11.560 like their science

01:07:12.600 and their experts?

01:07:13.560 But now

01:07:14.620 they're calling

01:07:15.080 this group

01:07:15.820 of scientists

01:07:17.180 eugenicists.

01:07:19.860 They're saying

01:07:20.360 the same thing.

01:07:21.280 Same thing.

01:07:22.220 Because if you

01:07:22.800 believe that

01:07:23.460 people's biology

01:07:26.160 has anything

01:07:27.200 to do with

01:07:27.840 their actions,

01:07:30.000 then you're

01:07:30.560 probably a

01:07:31.080 eugenicist,

01:07:31.860 according to

01:07:32.320 the left.

01:07:36.440 Muir is

01:07:37.400 as most

01:07:38.220 journalists

01:07:39.160 left.

01:07:40.040 Yeah, I

01:07:40.300 think David

01:07:40.980 Muir, you

01:07:41.860 could properly

01:07:42.580 say he's

01:07:43.120 more associated

01:07:44.040 with left

01:07:44.520 leaning things.

01:07:45.700 But

01:07:45.820 Stephanopoulos,

01:07:46.980 he was just

01:07:47.660 a politician

01:07:48.340 in disguise.

01:07:50.540 It's very

01:07:50.900 different.

01:07:52.780 All right.

01:07:55.660 And I think

01:07:56.400 that's all I

01:07:56.940 wanted to talk

01:07:57.440 about, but

01:07:58.060 let me make

01:07:58.500 sure.

01:08:01.600 So,

01:08:02.360 that's all

01:08:03.080 we got.

01:08:06.460 Isn't being

01:08:07.140 left part of

01:08:07.880 their job

01:08:08.480 description?

01:08:09.360 Yeah.

01:08:10.800 All right,

01:08:11.140 I'm just going

01:08:11.480 to look at

01:08:11.720 some of your

01:08:12.040 comments for a

01:08:12.760 moment.

01:08:13.120 did they

01:08:16.540 really remove

01:08:17.320 Washington's

01:08:18.200 statue from

01:08:19.060 George Washington

01:08:19.900 University?

01:08:21.660 You know,

01:08:23.700 statues feels

01:08:24.860 like old

01:08:28.080 news.

01:08:29.860 I wonder if

01:08:30.600 we'll have

01:08:30.980 any statue

01:08:31.760 events under

01:08:32.860 the Biden

01:08:33.500 administration.

01:08:34.800 Because it

01:08:35.200 feels like

01:08:35.740 there were

01:08:36.340 some events

01:08:37.080 where they

01:08:38.180 only existed

01:08:39.060 because Trump

01:08:40.000 was president.

01:08:40.660 as if the

01:08:42.080 event itself

01:08:42.880 was ginned

01:08:43.620 up to

01:08:45.160 give a

01:08:45.760 reason to

01:08:46.480 hate Trump,

01:08:47.260 even though

01:08:47.720 the event

01:08:48.440 may have

01:08:48.800 not been a

01:08:49.340 Trump-related

01:08:50.120 event.

01:08:51.280 And so

01:08:51.560 the Confederate

01:08:55.280 statue thing

01:08:56.160 feels like

01:08:57.540 something that

01:08:58.180 was a national

01:08:59.000 topic because

01:09:00.000 Trump was

01:09:00.700 president,

01:09:01.120 and that it

01:09:02.320 gave you

01:09:02.720 something to,

01:09:03.740 you know,

01:09:03.980 another weapon

01:09:04.680 to use against

01:09:05.460 them, and that

01:09:06.700 was maybe the

01:09:07.480 only reason for it.

01:09:08.320 Otherwise people

01:09:08.920 don't really

01:09:09.340 give a shit.

01:09:10.320 I mean,

01:09:10.540 once I learned

01:09:11.580 that something

01:09:12.780 north of 20%

01:09:14.160 of African-American

01:09:15.920 people polled

01:09:17.920 want to keep

01:09:18.900 the statues,

01:09:21.320 what do you

01:09:22.580 say to that?

01:09:23.980 Over 20% of

01:09:25.260 black people

01:09:25.780 want to keep

01:09:26.340 the statues?

01:09:27.800 Why can't

01:09:28.580 they have

01:09:28.900 their statues?

01:09:30.240 Why does

01:09:31.260 their opinion

01:09:31.720 not count?

01:09:32.800 I know the

01:09:33.420 majority gets

01:09:34.100 the rule,

01:09:35.400 but I mean,

01:09:36.060 I should tell

01:09:36.560 you that there's

01:09:37.180 something going

01:09:37.860 on that's

01:09:38.380 not strictly

01:09:39.100 racial about

01:09:39.920 these statues.

01:09:41.620 I'm anti-statue,

01:09:42.620 by the way,

01:09:42.980 on the same

01:09:45.020 basis that I'm

01:09:47.520 anti a lot

01:09:48.080 of other

01:09:48.340 things.

01:09:49.340 It's impolite.

01:09:51.340 That's it.

01:09:52.440 It's just

01:09:52.860 impolite,

01:09:53.700 and I don't

01:09:54.340 want to be

01:09:54.660 involved with

01:09:56.020 impolite things.

01:09:57.060 It doesn't

01:09:57.300 help anybody.

01:10:00.340 All right.

01:10:02.960 Somebody said

01:10:03.720 we should have

01:10:04.120 more statues.

01:10:04.860 All right.

01:10:08.040 That's all I

01:10:08.580 got for now,

01:10:09.180 and I will

01:10:09.540 talk to you

01:10:10.100 tomorrow.

01:10:15.340 All right,

01:10:15.900 you YouTubers

01:10:16.520 who are still

01:10:17.460 here.

01:10:20.940 What do I

01:10:21.540 think of

01:10:21.820 Biden ending

01:10:22.440 the deportation

01:10:23.480 of sex

01:10:24.200 offenders?

01:10:25.140 You talk

01:10:25.500 about

01:10:25.920 non-documented,

01:10:29.140 non-citizen

01:10:29.740 people.

01:10:30.860 Well, I

01:10:31.280 don't know

01:10:31.540 how he,

01:10:32.440 how does he

01:10:33.000 justify it?

01:10:34.300 I would

01:10:34.640 love to

01:10:35.000 know what

01:10:35.360 the argument

01:10:35.860 is.

01:10:37.120 I'll say

01:10:37.740 this, I've

01:10:38.240 said this

01:10:38.520 about Trump

01:10:39.220 and I'll

01:10:39.520 say this

01:10:39.840 about Biden.

01:10:41.020 If you

01:10:41.580 don't show

01:10:42.100 us the

01:10:42.500 argument,

01:10:43.580 we have

01:10:43.960 to assume

01:10:44.480 it's corrupt

01:10:45.440 intent.

01:10:46.660 You just

01:10:47.280 have to

01:10:47.560 assume it.

01:10:49.060 Because our

01:10:50.520 politicians do

01:10:51.600 need to show

01:10:52.240 their work.

01:10:52.980 It's not

01:10:53.340 optional.

01:10:54.620 If somebody

01:10:55.300 wants to

01:10:55.620 make a change

01:10:56.140 like not

01:10:56.860 deporting

01:10:57.580 sex offenders,

01:10:59.580 explain that

01:11:00.240 to us.

01:11:01.220 Just go in

01:11:02.060 front of us

01:11:02.440 and say,

01:11:02.780 look, I

01:11:03.800 realize you

01:11:04.740 think this

01:11:05.140 is a good

01:11:05.520 idea, but

01:11:06.260 here's my

01:11:06.740 reasoning,

01:11:07.360 there's some

01:11:07.720 bigger purpose.

01:11:10.040 I'm open

01:11:10.720 to a reason,

01:11:12.160 but if you

01:11:12.740 don't offer

01:11:13.380 a reason,

01:11:14.060 you have to

01:11:14.820 assume corrupt

01:11:15.740 intent, if

01:11:17.480 it's governed.

01:11:18.880 That's all,

01:11:19.840 and I'll talk

01:11:20.340 to you tomorrow.
