Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1942 Scott Adams： Censorship Controls Voting. Control The Message, Control The Country

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and congratulations on making it to the highlight of civilization.

00:00:07.700 Yeah, talk about the last, the lost city of Atlantis.

00:00:11.720 Well, I don't know if that's real or not, but whatever it is, it's not as awesome as this.

00:00:17.900 And you found this even if you can't find Atlantis, no matter how hard you look.

00:00:22.040 But if you'd like to take this experience up to the maximum potential, and I know that's the kind of person you are,

00:00:27.460 would you leave any money on the table? No, no, you pick up that money.

00:00:32.360 And all you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chelsea stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:38.460 Fill it with your favorite liquid, I like, coffee.

00:00:42.220 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, it's the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:47.980 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it's going to happen now.

00:00:52.200 And it's going to amaze you and make you feel better all day long. Go.

00:00:57.460 Yeah. Yeah, that's good.

00:01:04.620 All right, let me start with the funniest bad story of the day.

00:01:09.720 Now, I don't like to find humor in other people's misfortune.

00:01:15.320 No, that's not true.

00:01:16.400 I do like finding humor in other people's misfortune, but not if they know about it.

00:01:20.720 I think it's very impolite to laugh at people's misfortune, if they're likely to hear it.

00:01:27.940 But if nobody knows, sometimes other people's misfortune can be funny,

00:01:34.680 because at our base, we're very small and terrible people.

00:01:39.340 But don't let anybody know about that.

00:01:42.180 We'll try to keep up a good front, okay?

00:01:45.020 Okay.

00:01:45.780 But here's the story.

00:01:48.320 Do you recall that the Biden administration had an employee who was the first gender non-binary official?

00:01:55.820 An individual named Sam Brinton.

00:02:01.880 Now, Sam is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition

00:02:09.940 at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy.

00:02:14.780 Now, poor Sam can't get any real work done,

00:02:17.760 because he spends all of his time telling people where he works.

00:02:22.480 He'll come to work and phone a ring and say,

00:02:25.840 Who is this?

00:02:27.100 And he'll say,

00:02:28.000 Hello, this is Sam Brinton, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition

00:02:34.500 at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy.

00:02:38.280 Hello?

00:02:39.360 Hello?

00:02:40.260 And then the caller is hung up, because they just don't have that kind of time.

00:02:43.740 So that's the first problem.

00:02:45.760 First problem is, title, too long.

00:02:48.020 I don't know how he gets his work done.

00:02:49.340 Second problem, he is accused of stealing luggage from an airport carousel.

00:02:58.260 Now, you might ask yourself,

00:03:00.760 What kind of person who has a nice job steals luggage from a carousel?

00:03:06.240 What are you going to find in the luggage?

00:03:08.040 Get yourself a really sweet hair dryer?

00:03:10.760 I mean, he doesn't have any hair, actually.

00:03:14.020 But what would be the point of that?

00:03:15.880 Well, it turns out, there's an expensive kind of luggage, which I never heard about,

00:03:22.740 a Vera Bradley suitcase, which could be worth over $2,000.

00:03:29.280 Would you recognize a $2,000 suitcase if you saw it?

00:03:33.900 I don't feel like I would even recognize an expensive suitcase.

00:03:38.000 They kind of look kind of similar to me.

00:03:42.180 But, apparently, Sam, according to allegations, we only know the allegations,

00:03:48.060 stole that suitcase, and not only is they, I think Sam is a they,

00:03:57.180 not only is they on video, video security taking the bag,

00:04:03.080 but also on video using the bag on a few different occasions.

00:04:08.260 So there doesn't seem to be too much confusion about what's really going on.

00:04:13.340 Actually stole the bag.

00:04:15.280 Now, here's the punchline.

00:04:17.540 The punchline doesn't require any addition.

00:04:21.920 All right?

00:04:22.400 I'm just going to tell you the story,

00:04:24.680 the actual details,

00:04:26.900 as we know them,

00:04:29.020 and that's the punchline.

00:04:30.100 All right?

00:04:30.540 I'm just going to put two facts together.

00:04:34.520 The person who is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition

00:04:40.220 at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy

00:04:43.220 didn't know that the airport has security cameras.

00:04:50.920 Didn't see that coming.

00:04:53.400 Probably thought to they-self,

00:04:56.700 well, they are never going to find they.

00:05:00.660 They will take this bag,

00:05:02.240 and they will never know who took it.

00:05:04.480 They will be walking around with this brand new $2,300 bag,

00:05:08.760 and wah, wah, wah on everybody who thinks they can stop me.

00:05:14.060 But it turns out

00:05:15.240 that the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition

00:05:20.560 at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy

00:05:22.940 never saw this coming.

00:05:25.220 The whole video security game

00:05:28.680 didn't see it coming.

00:05:31.460 So, that's the punchline.

00:05:33.920 I got nothing else to add to that.

00:05:36.600 Didn't see it coming.

00:05:38.740 All right.

00:05:39.560 I'm glad we've got people who can not see five minutes in the future

00:05:43.600 in charge of our nuclear assets.

00:05:46.500 So, have you noticed that ESG is dying right on schedule?

00:05:56.000 Does it seem unusual to you that I declare that I would kill it

00:05:59.360 before the end of the year?

00:06:00.380 And it looks like it's limping into December pretty wounded.

00:06:06.740 Now, I've asked this before,

00:06:10.360 but I'm going to lead into something here.

00:06:12.620 Does it feel like I sometimes control the simulation?

00:06:16.620 Is there anybody here who is actually, like, literally thinking,

00:06:19.720 are you actually controlling the simulation?

00:06:21.540 Does it ever feel like that?

00:06:27.560 All right.

00:06:28.120 Some yeses, some noes.

00:06:29.400 Mostly noes.

00:06:30.280 Because you're very rational.

00:06:32.580 I like to think that I've attracted a hyper-rational audience.

00:06:37.200 Or at least you are now.

00:06:38.880 So, the rational people should say,

00:06:40.840 no, it doesn't look like that.

00:06:42.540 It's anecdotal.

00:06:44.540 And it's coincidence.

00:06:45.960 And I'm also good at identifying a parade and getting in front of it.

00:06:49.460 So, you should know that about me.

00:06:52.920 Sometimes it's not all about prediction.

00:06:55.500 Sometimes it's saying, I think I see a parade.

00:06:58.300 What happens if I get in front of it?

00:07:00.740 And then it looks like you predicted it.

00:07:02.960 But sometimes I also wonder myself.

00:07:05.820 I have a very...

00:07:07.340 If you knew my actual life,

00:07:10.340 you know the public parts,

00:07:12.160 but if you knew my whole life,

00:07:14.080 you would have to say to yourself,

00:07:15.860 what's going on here?

00:07:17.320 It looks like something weird is happening in my life

00:07:20.460 that I can't explain.

00:07:22.160 So, let me tell you something

00:07:23.480 that's the weirdest story

00:07:24.740 you might hear this week.

00:07:27.140 And it's a story of weird stories.

00:07:29.900 Everything I tell you next,

00:07:31.580 I swear to God, is true.

00:07:34.500 Now, when I say it's true,

00:07:35.860 I mean it's my impression of what happened.

00:07:38.180 It's my experience.

00:07:39.720 The actual underlying truth,

00:07:41.900 I don't know.

00:07:42.760 I don't know what the underlying truth is,

00:07:44.780 but I can tell you my experience.

00:07:46.000 So, I'm not lying about my experience

00:07:48.460 or my memory of it, right?

00:07:50.220 That part I promise you.

00:07:54.500 About, was it two days ago,

00:07:57.260 I had this overwhelming feeling

00:07:59.920 that I was being watched.

00:08:03.580 Now, I've had it before.

00:08:04.580 You've had that, right?

00:08:05.380 Do you ever have that feeling

00:08:06.180 you're being watched,

00:08:07.060 even when you're alone?

00:08:08.440 So, I was alone at home,

00:08:10.140 and I thought,

00:08:11.100 I'm being watched.

00:08:12.200 And I had an overwhelming feeling,

00:08:15.860 and again,

00:08:16.580 you should not put any stock in this, right?

00:08:18.660 It's just feelings.

00:08:20.320 Just a feeling.

00:08:22.160 That the creators of the simulation

00:08:24.460 were online

00:08:27.460 and looking at me at that moment,

00:08:29.260 like I was being observed.

00:08:31.320 Now, I couldn't,

00:08:32.320 I didn't have a feeling

00:08:33.080 if I was being observed

00:08:34.220 by one entity or multiple,

00:08:36.380 but I had the feeling

00:08:38.040 that whoever was observing

00:08:39.660 or whatever

00:08:40.440 was part of a population,

00:08:43.780 not a single entity.

00:08:46.500 Now, the questions

00:08:47.700 that you're going to ask,

00:08:48.680 let me anticipate your questions.

00:08:50.740 Scott, were you on drugs?

00:08:53.680 Of course I was.

00:08:54.660 It was after 9 a.m.

00:08:56.220 But I'm on drugs every day

00:08:57.760 in marijuana.

00:09:00.160 And I know what marijuana feels like.

00:09:04.160 Can you accept?

00:09:07.060 That if you get high every day

00:09:09.140 for 30 years or so,

00:09:11.400 or more,

00:09:12.600 you know what it feels like.

00:09:15.440 There are no surprises, right?

00:09:17.040 It doesn't sometimes

00:09:18.180 feel like mushrooms, right?

00:09:20.420 It doesn't sometimes

00:09:21.780 make me hallucinate.

00:09:23.360 It's always the same.

00:09:25.160 And it doesn't,

00:09:25.880 and if you do it every day,

00:09:27.780 it doesn't give you

00:09:28.740 any kind of an experience

00:09:29.840 like somebody doing it,

00:09:31.040 you know, once in a while.

00:09:32.520 The people who do it once in a while

00:09:33.840 have this profound,

00:09:34.760 you know,

00:09:35.700 you better not drive your car,

00:09:37.780 you know,

00:09:38.020 don't use any power tools

00:09:40.460 kind of situation.

00:09:41.640 If you do it every day,

00:09:43.060 it just makes you feel normal.

00:09:46.260 You know,

00:09:46.520 there are very few things

00:09:47.720 I couldn't do

00:09:48.440 completely high, right?

00:09:51.020 I could play a sport,

00:09:52.900 play an instrument,

00:09:54.160 about the same,

00:09:54.840 not much difference.

00:09:56.240 But that's the only people

00:09:57.080 who use it every day.

00:09:58.440 Ordinary people

00:09:59.040 would have a profound effect,

00:10:00.200 so you can't compare them

00:10:01.280 to the so-called

00:10:02.640 chronic users.

00:10:03.620 All right,

00:10:03.820 so that's the first question.

00:10:06.540 So,

00:10:07.160 I embarked on a

00:10:08.540 out loud

00:10:09.620 conversation

00:10:11.340 with whoever it was,

00:10:13.320 and I swear to God

00:10:14.360 I could feel

00:10:14.860 I was getting answers.

00:10:16.580 Now,

00:10:16.900 this must be

00:10:17.380 what people feel

00:10:18.200 when they believe

00:10:19.060 they're having a conversation

00:10:20.140 with a God.

00:10:21.560 I imagine it feels

00:10:22.620 the same way.

00:10:23.580 And I don't imagine

00:10:24.580 that my experience of it

00:10:26.040 was so outside

00:10:27.320 what people have felt

00:10:29.180 for millennium, right?

00:10:32.120 Humans have always felt,

00:10:33.620 am I talking to God?

00:10:35.480 Or, you know,

00:10:35.940 are the gods

00:10:36.760 talking to me right now?

00:10:37.760 It's a very common experience.

00:10:39.280 So remember,

00:10:40.240 I'm not trying to claim

00:10:41.520 that I understand

00:10:43.340 the experience

00:10:44.020 I'm explaining.

00:10:45.160 I'm just saying

00:10:45.900 it happened.

00:10:46.820 And then you can put

00:10:47.500 your own interpretation

00:10:48.260 on it.

00:10:49.360 And so I had

00:10:50.200 this long conversation

00:10:51.140 about, you know,

00:10:52.180 what this was all about.

00:10:55.580 And then,

00:10:56.260 because I didn't believe

00:10:57.880 my own experience

00:10:58.920 and I didn't feel

00:11:00.840 I was necessarily

00:11:01.620 talking to anybody

00:11:02.800 except my own imagination,

00:11:04.400 I thought,

00:11:05.180 well, maybe I'll test it.

00:11:07.200 So I said,

00:11:07.920 if this,

00:11:08.960 I said out loud,

00:11:10.800 if I'm in a simulation

00:11:11.960 and I have determined

00:11:13.840 and I've discovered

00:11:14.760 it's a simulation,

00:11:16.160 do I get powers

00:11:17.220 like Neo

00:11:17.880 from the Matrix?

00:11:19.540 Like if you know

00:11:20.280 you're in a simulation,

00:11:21.200 do you get power over it?

00:11:24.200 In other words,

00:11:24.940 does that give me

00:11:25.800 the ability

00:11:26.180 the ability

00:11:26.200 to change things

00:11:27.080 in real time

00:11:27.780 and actually change

00:11:28.540 my reality

00:11:29.460 because I now

00:11:30.800 understand it

00:11:31.580 and I can just

00:11:32.160 change it?

00:11:34.280 And so I thought,

00:11:35.360 well, it's worth

00:11:35.820 the test.

00:11:36.980 So I said,

00:11:37.740 I'll give you a,

00:11:38.660 I said out loud

00:11:39.560 to the creators

00:11:41.020 of the simulation,

00:11:42.320 I said,

00:11:42.860 all right,

00:11:43.020 here's a test.

00:11:44.300 If you can make

00:11:44.880 this happen,

00:11:46.180 then I'll believe

00:11:46.860 I'm in a simulation.

00:11:47.820 Otherwise,

00:11:48.300 just my imagination.

00:11:50.940 Although it could

00:11:51.680 be my imagination

00:11:52.420 either way.

00:11:53.180 And so I said,

00:11:54.900 all right,

00:11:55.400 my biggest problem

00:11:56.460 at the moment,

00:11:57.320 two days ago,

00:11:58.480 was that my knees

00:12:00.160 had been hurting me

00:12:01.060 for well over a month,

00:12:03.960 maybe two months.

00:12:05.140 And they hurt so much

00:12:06.540 that although I was

00:12:08.200 still active

00:12:08.740 and still going

00:12:09.340 to the gym,

00:12:10.560 it was sort of hard

00:12:11.600 to walk upstairs

00:12:12.480 like once I was

00:12:14.580 back from the gym.

00:12:15.260 And I was really

00:12:17.060 starting to worry

00:12:17.840 if my bad knees

00:12:19.580 were going to be

00:12:20.220 forever.

00:12:21.540 Because, you know,

00:12:22.020 sometimes you have

00:12:22.700 temporary knee problems,

00:12:24.000 sometimes it's forever.

00:12:25.340 And I thought,

00:12:25.940 if it's forever,

00:12:27.400 like I'm starting

00:12:28.300 this downward spiral

00:12:30.000 where I'm just going

00:12:31.940 to be, you know,

00:12:33.720 unable to exercise

00:12:34.660 for the rest of my life.

00:12:36.560 Yeah, I thought,

00:12:37.200 well, it feels like

00:12:37.780 maybe it's bone on bone

00:12:38.780 or something.

00:12:39.260 I didn't know

00:12:39.560 what it was.

00:12:40.520 So I said,

00:12:41.100 all right,

00:12:41.400 the simulation,

00:12:42.560 if you can make

00:12:43.340 my biggest problem

00:12:44.320 go away,

00:12:45.200 my knee pain,

00:12:47.020 that I will accept

00:12:48.220 that I'm not only

00:12:49.280 in the simulation,

00:12:50.620 but that I have

00:12:51.280 some control over it.

00:12:53.720 So two months

00:12:55.280 of solid knee pain,

00:12:56.860 never not knee pain.

00:12:58.640 It wasn't good at night,

00:13:00.520 it wasn't good

00:13:00.940 in the morning,

00:13:01.840 it was never good.

00:13:04.120 It went away

00:13:05.140 as I was talking.

00:13:09.460 It didn't come back.

00:13:11.860 It's still not back.

00:13:14.140 Two days,

00:13:15.120 and my knees

00:13:15.540 have no pain whatsoever.

00:13:18.760 Now,

00:13:19.460 I don't have

00:13:20.840 any explanation

00:13:21.840 for that.

00:13:22.900 If you're saying

00:13:23.560 to me,

00:13:23.900 Scott,

00:13:24.180 that's like

00:13:24.560 a perfect placebo

00:13:25.560 situation,

00:13:26.580 because I talked

00:13:27.480 myself into it,

00:13:28.460 and I had

00:13:29.340 a profound experience

00:13:30.700 of something

00:13:32.000 that probably

00:13:32.560 wasn't real,

00:13:33.820 right?

00:13:34.020 I probably wasn't

00:13:34.840 talking to anybody.

00:13:36.200 But because it

00:13:36.880 was so profound,

00:13:39.040 hypnosis

00:13:39.520 and placebo

00:13:40.700 and everything

00:13:41.860 I know about

00:13:42.460 the mind

00:13:42.980 suggests

00:13:43.620 that I may

00:13:44.600 have erased

00:13:45.040 my pain.

00:13:46.720 You know,

00:13:46.880 maybe I have

00:13:47.340 the same inflammation

00:13:48.580 I had before,

00:13:49.660 but I may have

00:13:50.300 just turned it off.

00:13:51.780 Now,

00:13:52.180 let me tell you

00:13:52.580 something else

00:13:53.140 that's related

00:13:54.240 to this.

00:13:55.960 Sometime last year,

00:13:57.240 I was at an event

00:13:58.940 at a friend's house,

00:14:00.140 house, and it was

00:14:01.320 an individual

00:14:01.820 who was doing

00:14:03.360 some work

00:14:03.900 in the backyard,

00:14:04.880 and it was

00:14:05.840 super cold.

00:14:07.300 It was like

00:14:07.660 a really cold

00:14:08.360 night.

00:14:09.240 And the individual

00:14:10.120 was a young man,

00:14:10.980 and he wasn't

00:14:11.360 wearing a jacket.

00:14:12.740 He just had

00:14:13.160 a t-shirt on.

00:14:14.240 And I was

00:14:14.720 wearing a full

00:14:15.560 winter jacket,

00:14:16.880 and I was

00:14:17.180 pretty cold.

00:14:18.780 And I said to him,

00:14:20.300 like,

00:14:20.560 how the hell?

00:14:21.840 How are you

00:14:22.260 putting up

00:14:22.600 with this cold?

00:14:23.160 And he told me

00:14:24.160 the following story.

00:14:26.120 He said that

00:14:26.940 he had an experience

00:14:28.660 with some psychedelics,

00:14:30.400 I think it was

00:14:31.060 mushrooms,

00:14:32.400 and that during

00:14:34.420 that experience,

00:14:35.720 he had the

00:14:36.340 realization that

00:14:37.380 his sensation

00:14:38.360 of cold

00:14:39.000 was a manufactured

00:14:40.640 feeling,

00:14:42.300 and that he

00:14:42.820 wasn't in any

00:14:43.520 real danger

00:14:44.180 at that temperature.

00:14:45.320 Temperature was

00:14:46.360 maybe 50,

00:14:49.320 right?

00:14:49.800 So you can't

00:14:50.500 stay outside

00:14:51.120 at 50 for

00:14:52.680 too long

00:14:53.220 without being

00:14:53.700 uncomfortable.

00:14:54.600 But it's not

00:14:55.180 really dangerous,

00:14:55.900 is it?

00:14:56.940 I don't think

00:14:57.540 it's dangerous.

00:14:59.160 I mean,

00:14:59.460 if you can handle

00:15:00.160 being outside

00:15:00.900 at 50 degrees

00:15:01.960 with your t-shirt,

00:15:03.420 it's not going

00:15:04.120 to kill you.

00:15:04.660 It might even

00:15:05.040 be good for you,

00:15:05.720 right?

00:15:06.240 It might actually

00:15:06.760 be good for you.

00:15:09.040 So he had

00:15:09.740 actually separated

00:15:10.640 cold from a feeling.

00:15:15.140 He just didn't

00:15:15.840 feel cold anymore.

00:15:16.880 And the reason

00:15:17.460 he didn't feel it

00:15:18.180 is because he

00:15:18.600 chose not to.

00:15:19.920 He simply

00:15:20.580 turned off that,

00:15:21.760 he just turned

00:15:22.420 off that feeling

00:15:23.340 because he

00:15:23.740 realized it was

00:15:24.280 fake.

00:15:25.240 It was a

00:15:25.960 false signal.

00:15:28.760 And so the

00:15:29.260 other day,

00:15:30.500 I was outdoors

00:15:31.420 without a jacket,

00:15:32.960 you know,

00:15:33.260 temporarily just

00:15:34.160 to check my

00:15:34.900 mailbox.

00:15:36.080 And I thought,

00:15:37.060 wow, I'm going

00:15:37.460 to be out here

00:15:37.960 way longer than

00:15:38.780 I want to be.

00:15:39.360 And I was super

00:15:40.540 cold.

00:15:41.760 And the cold

00:15:42.380 was starting to

00:15:42.980 hurt.

00:15:44.200 And I said,

00:15:44.760 what would

00:15:45.560 happen if I

00:15:46.120 reframed the

00:15:46.900 cold?

00:15:48.480 So I'll give it

00:15:49.180 a try.

00:15:49.460 I keep hearing

00:15:51.240 about these

00:15:51.700 people who do

00:15:52.220 the cryonic

00:15:54.100 chambers where

00:15:55.040 it's like super

00:15:55.980 cold and they

00:15:57.260 stay in there

00:15:57.760 for a few

00:15:58.180 minutes and

00:15:58.700 I'm surprised

00:16:00.120 they don't

00:16:00.460 die.

00:16:01.740 And I thought,

00:16:02.300 wait, if Joe

00:16:03.500 Rogan and those

00:16:04.180 people can get

00:16:05.780 in this super

00:16:07.320 cold thing and

00:16:08.740 it's actually good

00:16:09.380 for them,

00:16:10.720 wouldn't it

00:16:11.220 probably be good

00:16:12.380 for me to

00:16:13.560 simply experience

00:16:14.600 something that's

00:16:15.680 uncomfortably cold

00:16:16.760 for a few

00:16:17.320 minutes?

00:16:17.680 And as soon

00:16:19.360 as I reframed

00:16:20.280 what I was

00:16:20.760 doing to a

00:16:21.740 health-related

00:16:22.740 process, I

00:16:24.580 said to myself,

00:16:25.220 I'll bet this is

00:16:25.780 actually good for

00:16:26.460 me to be like

00:16:27.960 super cold.

00:16:29.420 I know you're

00:16:30.220 laughing.

00:16:31.400 Let me just

00:16:33.080 pause.

00:16:34.840 I live in

00:16:35.660 California.

00:16:37.280 I used to live

00:16:38.300 in upstate New

00:16:39.020 York.

00:16:40.200 If you adjust

00:16:41.180 this for what

00:16:41.840 you're used to,

00:16:43.120 when I say I

00:16:43.900 went outside and

00:16:44.620 it was 50

00:16:45.160 degrees and I

00:16:45.820 was super

00:16:46.220 uncomfortable,

00:16:46.680 comfortable, if

00:16:48.040 I had been in

00:16:48.680 New York, that

00:16:50.140 would have

00:16:50.420 been roughly

00:16:53.460 zero, roughly

00:16:54.860 zero, right?

00:16:57.380 So in New

00:16:58.200 York, if you

00:16:59.900 live in New

00:17:00.400 York and you

00:17:00.920 live in the

00:17:01.360 cold, you

00:17:02.260 could go

00:17:02.580 outside in

00:17:03.180 your t-shirt at

00:17:04.820 roughly zero

00:17:05.620 degrees and

00:17:07.040 sort of do

00:17:07.560 some stuff, you

00:17:08.960 know, you

00:17:09.240 wouldn't like it

00:17:10.040 that much, do

00:17:10.720 some stuff and

00:17:11.280 then come inside

00:17:11.860 and you wouldn't

00:17:12.180 be damaged,

00:17:13.040 right?

00:17:13.520 Wouldn't you

00:17:13.820 agree?

00:17:14.000 So when

00:17:15.240 you're making

00:17:16.100 fun of me for

00:17:16.840 being a huge

00:17:17.540 pussy because I

00:17:18.780 couldn't handle

00:17:19.220 50 degrees, just

00:17:20.960 know that when I

00:17:21.780 grew up in New

00:17:22.280 York, I could

00:17:23.500 have done zero.

00:17:24.780 It's just what

00:17:25.540 you're used to,

00:17:26.360 right?

00:17:27.880 So the moment I

00:17:28.960 reframed my

00:17:29.740 experience as a

00:17:30.980 voluntary health

00:17:33.220 related process, I

00:17:35.220 was thinking,

00:17:35.680 God, I think this

00:17:36.480 cold is making me

00:17:37.300 healthier.

00:17:38.560 All the pain

00:17:39.320 went away.

00:17:39.760 all of the

00:17:42.140 discomfort, it

00:17:43.600 was pretty, pretty

00:17:44.380 big discomfort, of

00:17:45.780 feeling cold

00:17:46.720 immediately left my

00:17:48.900 body because I

00:17:50.280 told myself, if I

00:17:52.400 were Joe Rogan, I'd

00:17:53.360 be paying for this

00:17:54.080 experience.

00:17:55.120 This is probably

00:17:55.640 really good for me.

00:17:57.640 Does anybody have a

00:17:58.680 problem with germs?

00:18:00.360 Anybody have, is

00:18:01.040 anybody a germ-phobe?

00:18:03.280 Try this reframe.

00:18:06.540 The germs are good

00:18:07.520 for you.

00:18:08.900 That's it.

00:18:10.660 Which is true.

00:18:11.960 Because you need to

00:18:12.660 have some dogs and

00:18:13.580 some animals and a

00:18:15.160 little bit of filth

00:18:15.920 around you or else

00:18:16.820 you're not going to

00:18:17.180 be strong.

00:18:18.800 So I do a lot of

00:18:20.020 public stuff.

00:18:21.320 Shake hands with a

00:18:22.040 lot of strangers if I

00:18:23.260 do a public event.

00:18:24.420 I'm not doing any at

00:18:25.400 the moment.

00:18:26.760 And as soon as I'm

00:18:27.920 done, I go wash my

00:18:29.440 hands right after,

00:18:30.340 right?

00:18:30.620 Because you've got

00:18:31.020 like a hundred

00:18:31.840 people's germs on

00:18:33.100 you.

00:18:33.920 But I used to think,

00:18:35.120 oh my God, my God,

00:18:36.160 like I'd be running to

00:18:37.100 the bathroom to wash my

00:18:38.020 hands like a surgeon.

00:18:38.900 Don't touch your

00:18:39.860 face.

00:18:40.400 Don't touch your

00:18:40.980 face.

00:18:41.880 But since I've

00:18:42.700 reframed it, that germs

00:18:44.900 are good for me, I

00:18:46.160 still wash my hands.

00:18:47.820 But when I'm walking to

00:18:49.480 the bathroom, I'm

00:18:50.320 thinking, I wonder if I'm

00:18:51.580 getting stronger.

00:18:53.260 I wonder if my immune

00:18:54.700 system is saying, thank

00:18:55.720 you, I needed a little

00:18:57.500 stress test.

00:18:58.780 That's just what I

00:18:59.540 needed today.

00:19:00.480 So I've reframed even

00:19:02.060 germs at the low end,

00:19:04.000 right?

00:19:04.200 Nothing disgusting.

00:19:05.780 But germs, just sort of

00:19:06.860 the daily germs of life,

00:19:10.100 I've just defined them as

00:19:11.400 part of what makes my

00:19:13.060 immune system stronger.

00:19:16.820 I wasn't planning to talk

00:19:18.160 about any of this today.

00:19:19.160 Was any of this fun?

00:19:20.700 I don't know.

00:19:21.280 I'll talk about the news

00:19:22.260 next.

00:19:22.700 There's plenty of cool

00:19:23.580 news.

00:19:25.120 I just thought it'd be

00:19:26.460 interesting because it's

00:19:27.380 something you can try at

00:19:28.380 home.

00:19:28.620 The next time you're

00:19:30.160 super cold, as long as

00:19:31.760 it's temporary, just try

00:19:33.540 the reframe and say, I'm

00:19:35.040 super cold, exactly what's

00:19:37.280 good for me.

00:19:38.680 I'm so lucky that this is

00:19:40.420 super cold for a few

00:19:41.480 minutes because this is

00:19:43.460 really going to boost my

00:19:44.300 natural immunity.

00:19:46.040 Just try it.

00:19:46.980 Let me know how it works.

00:19:49.060 All right.

00:19:49.860 I got a new mascot, Phil

00:19:51.620 Bump, who writes for the

00:19:52.760 Washington Post.

00:19:54.300 Phil likes to come into my

00:19:56.020 tweets and say bad things

00:19:57.840 about me.

00:19:58.620 Or to mock me.

00:20:00.660 I don't know why.

00:20:01.840 It may be because I've

00:20:03.260 mocked him for his writing

00:20:04.320 in the past.

00:20:05.620 It feels personal.

00:20:07.540 But I've promoted him from

00:20:10.740 mere critic to mascot.

00:20:12.820 That's my highest

00:20:13.920 designation.

00:20:15.340 So now he's with Keith

00:20:16.840 Olbermann.

00:20:18.640 And it's a small group.

00:20:20.920 I just have a few mascots.

00:20:22.360 But Phil's part of the

00:20:23.520 group now.

00:20:24.340 So congratulations, Phil,

00:20:25.540 for entering the Scott

00:20:28.100 Mascot

00:20:29.300 Committee.

00:20:32.620 Well, you make fun of me

00:20:34.420 for living in California,

00:20:35.880 but here are a few things

00:20:37.340 you didn't know.

00:20:39.040 In the past month,

00:20:41.780 whoops,

00:20:42.240 got a little problem here.

00:20:43.660 In the past month,

00:20:44.840 in California where I live,

00:20:47.540 almost every day,

00:20:49.400 the weather has been so good,

00:20:51.060 at least during the daytime,

00:20:53.900 that it feels like room

00:20:56.660 temperature.

00:20:58.080 I walk outside,

00:20:59.320 and the colors are perfect.

00:21:01.520 I've had a month of room

00:21:03.880 temperature,

00:21:05.100 sunny,

00:21:06.200 perfect weather.

00:21:07.820 It's amazing.

00:21:09.580 And wow.

00:21:10.340 So that's good.

00:21:13.020 But also,

00:21:13.700 California has made

00:21:15.080 jaywalking legal.

00:21:17.480 So as a,

00:21:18.940 you know,

00:21:19.140 it was already legal to,

00:21:21.940 you know,

00:21:22.120 the pedestrian always

00:21:24.020 had the right-of-way.

00:21:25.540 So that's been true

00:21:26.440 for a long time

00:21:27.060 in California.

00:21:28.040 But you have to be standing

00:21:29.040 at an obvious crossing point.

00:21:31.620 Now the law is extended

00:21:33.320 to you can basically

00:21:35.040 cross the road

00:21:35.760 anywhere you want,

00:21:36.620 and it's not illegal.

00:21:38.740 And the motorists

00:21:39.760 are going to need to stop.

00:21:42.240 Or they're just going to not,

00:21:43.680 I mean,

00:21:44.180 obviously they don't want

00:21:45.020 to kill you,

00:21:45.520 so they're going to stop anyway.

00:21:46.900 Now it doesn't seem like

00:21:48.200 necessarily

00:21:50.160 the obvious best idea

00:21:51.940 in the world.

00:21:53.480 But we'll find out.

00:21:55.120 Maybe we'll find out.

00:21:56.020 Maybe it's cool.

00:21:57.240 So,

00:21:58.700 here's what I can do

00:21:59.700 in California

00:22:00.340 that you can't do

00:22:01.220 in Florida

00:22:02.400 and Texas.

00:22:05.120 You can't jaywalk

00:22:06.420 to go buy some weed.

00:22:09.000 Yeah.

00:22:09.840 I mean,

00:22:10.280 in Florida

00:22:10.800 you'd have to have

00:22:11.440 a medical card,

00:22:12.680 I guess.

00:22:13.600 But no,

00:22:14.280 in California

00:22:14.980 I can jaywalk

00:22:16.540 anywhere I want.

00:22:17.600 I can jaywalk

00:22:18.220 to get an abortion.

00:22:19.820 I can jaywalk

00:22:20.820 to get me some weed.

00:22:22.480 I got a lot of freedom

00:22:23.320 in this state.

00:22:24.600 Got a lot of taxes.

00:22:25.900 I'm not sure

00:22:26.340 the taxes are

00:22:27.100 worth all the freedom,

00:22:28.760 but I don't know.

00:22:30.380 I don't think

00:22:30.740 I could move somewhere

00:22:31.420 where I had less freedom.

00:22:32.760 And by the way,

00:22:35.920 that's mostly

00:22:36.560 a psychological thing.

00:22:38.580 But I can tell you

00:22:39.320 that I feel more free

00:22:40.640 in California

00:22:42.140 than I would feel

00:22:44.040 in Texas or Florida.

00:22:46.100 I would just feel

00:22:47.040 less free.

00:22:49.040 Now,

00:22:49.420 I think that Florida

00:22:50.200 and Texas

00:22:50.680 have a lot going for them.

00:22:52.320 They're well-managed states.

00:22:54.600 And so I,

00:22:55.080 you know,

00:22:55.400 mostly have

00:22:56.100 only positive things

00:22:57.420 to say about both places.

00:22:59.240 But it is true

00:23:00.060 I feel more free here.

00:23:04.040 So,

00:23:04.620 for whatever that's worth.

00:23:09.520 I saw another mention

00:23:11.080 that there's a heroin shortage,

00:23:13.120 which means that people

00:23:14.080 are using fentanyl

00:23:15.760 instead of heroin.

00:23:17.520 But I would like to,

00:23:19.280 I have some inside information

00:23:21.300 on that.

00:23:22.080 I've got sources.

00:23:23.560 My sources tell me

00:23:24.540 it's not so much

00:23:25.280 that you can't get heroin,

00:23:27.240 it's that nobody

00:23:27.920 wants to buy it.

00:23:30.060 Nobody wants to buy the heroin.

00:23:33.100 Do you know why?

00:23:34.520 Because fentanyl

00:23:35.340 is easily available

00:23:36.420 and it's a better nod.

00:23:38.920 That's,

00:23:39.360 that's tweaker talk

00:23:40.820 and that's addict talk.

00:23:43.100 The,

00:23:43.320 the quote,

00:23:44.540 better nod

00:23:45.260 is the,

00:23:46.740 you know,

00:23:47.020 sort of being

00:23:47.600 in and out of sleep.

00:23:48.760 You're nodding out

00:23:49.480 and coming back.

00:23:50.480 So that's,

00:23:51.080 that's what the addicts

00:23:52.260 are doing,

00:23:52.680 the ones who are shooting up.

00:23:53.980 Now,

00:23:54.380 here's the thing

00:23:54.860 you need to know

00:23:55.560 because if you don't

00:23:57.000 understand fentanyl,

00:23:58.280 you,

00:23:59.460 you can't be part

00:24:00.400 of the productive

00:24:01.120 persuasion

00:24:03.220 to maybe

00:24:04.200 make things better.

00:24:05.480 So the thing

00:24:06.180 you need to know

00:24:06.740 is that the people

00:24:07.500 who know they're

00:24:08.160 buying fentanyl

00:24:09.060 and putting it

00:24:10.480 in their arms,

00:24:11.860 they're sort of like,

00:24:14.520 say,

00:24:15.400 I would say

00:24:15.740 they're like

00:24:16.380 scuba divers.

00:24:18.320 They're people

00:24:18.980 who know they're

00:24:19.500 doing an inherently

00:24:20.360 dangerous thing

00:24:21.360 so they take

00:24:22.660 extra precautions

00:24:23.600 because they're not

00:24:24.700 actually trying to die.

00:24:26.120 They're trying to stay alive.

00:24:27.300 They just want a good high.

00:24:29.180 So it might be,

00:24:32.200 wait for it,

00:24:35.340 it might be fewer

00:24:36.640 overdoses

00:24:37.200 because they're doing

00:24:38.260 fentanyl

00:24:38.840 instead of heroin.

00:24:40.560 And I'm going to

00:24:41.240 make that prediction

00:24:42.000 because it's opposite

00:24:42.920 of what everyone

00:24:43.520 else is predicting.

00:24:45.540 So normies,

00:24:46.740 the people who are

00:24:47.320 not too close

00:24:48.680 to this problem,

00:24:49.920 are going to say,

00:24:50.760 wait,

00:24:51.260 if you stop using

00:24:52.580 heroin,

00:24:53.080 which is pretty bad,

00:24:54.760 and you start using

00:24:55.540 fentanyl,

00:24:56.040 which is way worse,

00:24:57.300 you should have

00:24:58.220 more overdoses,

00:24:59.120 right?

00:25:00.580 I'm going to predict

00:25:01.460 it goes the other way.

00:25:03.340 I'm going to predict

00:25:04.060 that the scuba divers

00:25:05.240 know that they need

00:25:06.140 to make sure

00:25:07.080 that they've got

00:25:07.600 air in their tank.

00:25:09.300 And it's the people

00:25:10.220 who don't know

00:25:11.180 they're getting

00:25:11.560 the fentanyl,

00:25:12.620 the teenagers,

00:25:13.640 who are buying it

00:25:14.760 in pill form

00:25:15.520 and they don't know

00:25:16.100 what they're getting.

00:25:17.200 They're the ones

00:25:17.860 overdosing

00:25:18.380 because they can't

00:25:19.740 take the obvious

00:25:21.380 precautions

00:25:21.960 because they don't

00:25:22.640 know there's a danger.

00:25:23.400 It's a hidden danger.

00:25:26.720 So that's my prediction.

00:25:28.100 My prediction is

00:25:28.740 overdose deaths

00:25:30.100 from people

00:25:31.600 who shoot

00:25:32.220 might go down

00:25:33.760 while overall

00:25:35.280 overdoses

00:25:36.120 might go up.

00:25:37.680 So it's a

00:25:38.600 bifurcated situation.

00:25:40.400 Two different risk

00:25:41.280 patterns

00:25:42.280 and you have to

00:25:42.760 know that.

00:25:44.160 And I saw it.

00:25:44.740 There are people

00:25:45.140 who know what

00:25:45.560 they're talking about

00:25:46.160 who are agreeing

00:25:46.720 with me in the comments.

00:25:48.140 So it's not crazy.

00:25:52.860 All right.

00:25:56.640 Yeah, one mother

00:25:58.420 of all bonds

00:25:59.140 dropped on a fentanyl

00:26:00.740 place would take

00:26:01.680 care of that,

00:26:02.220 wouldn't it?

00:26:03.600 Oh, this is weird.

00:26:06.180 I've got two

00:26:06.760 different documents

00:26:07.600 that are printed

00:26:08.020 on the same document.

00:26:09.260 So I'm trying to read.

00:26:11.460 Apparently there was

00:26:12.220 a piece of paper

00:26:13.060 that I used twice here.

00:26:15.120 Huh.

00:26:18.140 Oh my God,

00:26:20.740 this is going to be

00:26:21.460 a challenge

00:26:21.860 because all of my notes

00:26:23.080 are something

00:26:24.460 written over

00:26:25.040 something else.

00:26:27.180 I have a formula

00:26:28.840 for making

00:26:29.820 all poor kids

00:26:31.400 successful.

00:26:32.220 I tweeted this

00:26:32.820 a couple years ago

00:26:33.640 but it surfaced again.

00:26:36.160 Imagine if your

00:26:37.420 school

00:26:38.480 taught you

00:26:39.720 what I was taught

00:26:41.100 as a kid.

00:26:42.480 So what I'm going

00:26:43.480 to tell you now

00:26:44.180 is basically

00:26:44.980 how I was raised.

00:26:46.720 I was raised

00:26:47.360 to believe

00:26:47.800 that the following

00:26:48.560 steps

00:26:49.060 would make you

00:26:50.200 successful.

00:26:51.620 And I knew that

00:26:52.360 since kindergarten

00:26:54.520 I think.

00:26:55.460 I think as early

00:26:56.220 as kindergarten

00:26:56.880 my mother was

00:26:57.600 telling me

00:26:58.060 here's your path

00:26:59.260 to success

00:26:59.940 do these things

00:27:01.620 and you will do well.

00:27:03.720 Now I don't know

00:27:04.320 if everybody's parents

00:27:05.160 do that.

00:27:06.620 Like do the

00:27:07.160 poor kids

00:27:08.660 get the same

00:27:09.180 kind of guidance?

00:27:10.740 So here's basically

00:27:11.520 what it is.

00:27:12.140 This is my version

00:27:12.860 of it.

00:27:13.820 Focus on useful

00:27:14.920 education.

00:27:16.460 Keyword is useful.

00:27:18.360 Make sure

00:27:19.020 you get good grades

00:27:20.040 get into college

00:27:21.480 and take a useful

00:27:23.040 major.

00:27:24.760 Does everybody's

00:27:26.620 parents tell them

00:27:27.360 they've got to do

00:27:27.920 something useful

00:27:28.580 or they won't

00:27:29.160 make money?

00:27:30.640 Mine did.

00:27:32.640 I'm pretty sure

00:27:33.540 my mother was

00:27:34.140 quite clear

00:27:34.860 that going to

00:27:36.320 college for no

00:27:37.100 purpose

00:27:37.600 was a losing

00:27:39.060 proposition.

00:27:40.240 You have to go

00:27:40.860 to college

00:27:41.340 for something

00:27:42.280 to be better

00:27:43.960 at something

00:27:44.440 specific

00:27:45.060 that's useful.

00:27:45.740 Does everybody's

00:27:47.680 parents tell

00:27:48.180 them that?

00:27:49.200 To me it was

00:27:49.940 obvious by the

00:27:50.780 time I was in

00:27:51.260 first grade

00:27:51.980 because it was

00:27:53.100 just drilled in

00:27:53.780 from the first

00:27:54.320 days.

00:27:54.700 That's the first

00:27:55.240 thing.

00:27:57.960 Number two

00:27:58.660 stay out of

00:27:59.460 trouble.

00:28:00.080 Stay in a jail.

00:28:02.040 Right?

00:28:02.880 Stay in a jail.

00:28:04.140 Stay off of

00:28:04.740 drugs

00:28:05.180 which I managed

00:28:06.980 to do until

00:28:07.540 college.

00:28:08.000 don't become

00:28:12.320 a parent

00:28:12.780 too soon.

00:28:13.740 Don't have

00:28:14.220 a kid

00:28:14.540 that you

00:28:14.800 weren't

00:28:14.960 planning on

00:28:15.520 too soon.

00:28:17.280 Right?

00:28:17.820 Just basic

00:28:18.480 basic stuff.

00:28:21.280 Don't get

00:28:22.120 anybody knocked

00:28:22.680 up too soon.

00:28:24.460 Build a talent

00:28:25.400 stack.

00:28:26.460 Now that part

00:28:27.000 I'm adding.

00:28:28.260 That wasn't

00:28:29.560 exactly added

00:28:30.740 by my mother.

00:28:31.740 My mother

00:28:32.080 was still

00:28:32.500 the generation

00:28:33.400 try to be

00:28:34.840 the best

00:28:35.320 at whatever

00:28:35.740 you're doing

00:28:36.140 which was

00:28:37.880 kind of

00:28:38.320 good starter

00:28:39.140 advice

00:28:40.060 but later

00:28:41.140 I developed

00:28:42.120 the concept

00:28:42.680 of the

00:28:43.060 talent stack.

00:28:44.000 That's from

00:28:44.660 my book

00:28:45.020 back there

00:28:45.460 which is

00:28:46.160 now

00:28:46.360 the talent

00:28:47.800 stack idea

00:28:48.420 is now

00:28:49.980 common advice

00:28:51.040 but it wasn't

00:28:52.160 common until

00:28:52.700 I invented it.

00:28:54.240 So that's

00:28:54.780 the one thing

00:28:55.280 I added here.

00:28:56.980 Build a talent

00:28:57.780 stack.

00:28:58.720 Be useful

00:28:59.360 to others.

00:29:00.320 That's the

00:29:00.600 next point.

00:29:02.040 It's not

00:29:02.680 good enough

00:29:03.180 just to be

00:29:03.740 good at

00:29:04.080 something.

00:29:04.700 It has to

00:29:04.980 be good at

00:29:05.380 something that

00:29:05.860 somebody wants

00:29:06.320 to pay

00:29:06.600 for.

00:29:07.140 You have

00:29:07.700 to be

00:29:07.920 useful.

00:29:09.020 And so

00:29:09.460 I was

00:29:10.100 trained to

00:29:10.520 be useful

00:29:11.140 all the

00:29:12.860 time.

00:29:14.180 Like I

00:29:15.060 had to

00:29:15.380 mow the

00:29:15.720 lawn,

00:29:16.080 I had to

00:29:16.340 take the

00:29:16.700 garbage

00:29:16.980 out,

00:29:18.060 I had to

00:29:18.600 do something,

00:29:19.480 get good

00:29:19.980 grades,

00:29:20.940 but I

00:29:21.440 always had

00:29:21.820 to be

00:29:22.060 useful.

00:29:23.240 That was

00:29:23.560 always just

00:29:23.980 baked into

00:29:24.500 the operating

00:29:25.140 system.

00:29:28.260 Favor

00:29:28.700 systems over

00:29:29.520 goals.

00:29:30.680 Make sure

00:29:31.240 that you're

00:29:31.600 doing all

00:29:32.020 the right

00:29:32.320 things to

00:29:33.220 give you

00:29:33.480 lots of

00:29:33.940 options.

00:29:34.300 That was

00:29:34.940 never told

00:29:35.360 to me

00:29:35.600 directly,

00:29:36.440 so again,

00:29:37.300 that's my

00:29:37.740 addition to

00:29:38.420 it.

00:29:38.960 But sort

00:29:39.360 of indirectly,

00:29:40.020 I think I

00:29:40.380 picked that

00:29:40.760 up.

00:29:41.940 And then

00:29:42.460 learn basic

00:29:45.200 risk management.

00:29:47.040 Basic risk

00:29:47.980 management,

00:29:48.620 which includes

00:29:49.180 financial risk

00:29:50.060 management.

00:29:51.100 But I'm

00:29:51.420 making it a

00:29:52.240 little bigger.

00:29:53.180 Now,

00:29:54.060 none of that

00:29:54.820 is hard.

00:29:56.320 Everything on

00:29:57.160 my little list

00:29:57.900 of how to be

00:29:58.520 successful is

00:29:59.760 pretty straightforward.

00:30:00.460 straightforward.

00:30:01.780 Pretty

00:30:02.080 straightforward.

00:30:02.860 There's

00:30:03.080 nobody who

00:30:03.600 couldn't do

00:30:04.060 it, right?

00:30:06.280 You could

00:30:07.020 be in a

00:30:07.340 pretty bad

00:30:07.940 school, but

00:30:09.480 let's say

00:30:09.860 you're a

00:30:10.380 minority

00:30:10.760 student in

00:30:11.460 the worst

00:30:11.820 school.

00:30:12.820 You could

00:30:13.300 not do

00:30:14.220 drugs.

00:30:15.400 There are

00:30:15.720 people who

00:30:16.060 do it.

00:30:16.760 You could

00:30:17.220 not get

00:30:17.800 arrested.

00:30:18.860 It's

00:30:19.100 possible,

00:30:20.240 right?

00:30:21.040 You could

00:30:21.900 do as

00:30:22.340 well as

00:30:23.240 you could

00:30:23.480 do in

00:30:23.820 that poor

00:30:24.260 school,

00:30:25.020 but because

00:30:25.880 you come

00:30:26.260 from a

00:30:27.260 minority

00:30:27.660 disadvantaged

00:30:28.280 situation,

00:30:28.920 you might

00:30:29.680 be able

00:30:29.920 to get

00:30:30.180 a little

00:30:30.800 lift,

00:30:31.500 maybe a

00:30:32.920 college

00:30:33.200 scholarship,

00:30:34.220 a little

00:30:34.480 extra

00:30:34.780 consideration,

00:30:35.860 and then

00:30:36.340 from there

00:30:36.720 you're on

00:30:37.040 your own.

00:30:38.200 Get yourself

00:30:38.700 a useful

00:30:39.160 major,

00:30:40.440 and you

00:30:41.180 could probably

00:30:41.560 pay for

00:30:41.980 your student

00:30:43.100 loans if

00:30:43.580 you have

00:30:43.820 them,

00:30:44.020 et cetera.

00:30:46.500 So I

00:30:49.220 would just

00:30:49.580 say that

00:30:50.060 things would

00:30:51.300 be really

00:30:51.600 different if

00:30:52.020 we just

00:30:52.300 taught people

00:30:52.720 the basics

00:30:53.180 when they're

00:30:54.340 small.

00:30:55.900 Rasmussen did

00:30:56.560 a poll to

00:30:57.100 find out if

00:30:57.700 people,

00:30:58.040 think that

00:30:59.580 Musk is

00:31:00.220 going to

00:31:00.460 make Twitter

00:31:01.460 better or

00:31:02.180 worse.

00:31:03.480 34% of

00:31:04.720 American adults

00:31:05.440 who regularly

00:31:06.720 use Twitter

00:31:07.380 believe that

00:31:08.140 Musk will

00:31:08.660 make the

00:31:09.060 site better.

00:31:10.340 So about

00:31:10.700 a third

00:31:11.120 say he'll

00:31:11.560 make it

00:31:11.800 better.

00:31:12.940 And almost

00:31:13.620 exactly the

00:31:14.280 same think

00:31:15.840 that Musk

00:31:16.460 will make

00:31:16.900 it worse.

00:31:18.640 But how

00:31:19.040 many people,

00:31:19.740 this will be

00:31:20.260 a little

00:31:20.500 test of

00:31:21.080 your psychic

00:31:22.960 ability,

00:31:24.780 how many

00:31:25.240 people roughly

00:31:25.920 do you

00:31:27.220 believe that

00:31:28.640 Elon Musk,

00:31:29.840 the world's

00:31:31.180 greatest

00:31:31.580 entrepreneur,

00:31:33.680 paid $44

00:31:35.100 billion for

00:31:36.280 Twitter to

00:31:37.520 not change it

00:31:38.660 too much?

00:31:39.460 To not change

00:31:40.120 it too much?

00:31:41.360 How many

00:31:41.840 people think

00:31:42.420 they spent

00:31:43.120 $44 billion

00:31:44.160 to not really

00:31:45.740 make anything

00:31:46.260 any different?

00:31:47.900 Wow,

00:31:48.600 you're good.

00:31:49.640 Wow.

00:31:51.460 That's good.

00:31:52.280 It's 24%,

00:31:53.840 but your

00:31:54.280 guesses of

00:31:54.820 25% are

00:31:55.780 just scarily

00:31:57.020 accurate.

00:31:58.220 How do you

00:31:58.840 do that?

00:31:59.540 I don't know.

00:32:00.340 I don't know

00:32:00.660 how you do

00:32:01.040 it.

00:32:03.060 Well,

00:32:03.620 the Twitter

00:32:03.960 cybernetic

00:32:04.640 brain,

00:32:05.900 which fascinates

00:32:06.860 me when I

00:32:07.320 look at the

00:32:07.780 currently

00:32:08.380 trending

00:32:08.840 section,

00:32:10.080 because to

00:32:10.660 me that's

00:32:11.060 the consciousness

00:32:11.780 or where

00:32:12.760 Twitter is

00:32:14.020 focusing its

00:32:14.740 brain.

00:32:16.120 And there

00:32:16.400 were four

00:32:16.780 names in

00:32:17.260 my,

00:32:18.080 I think it's

00:32:18.620 different for

00:32:19.060 each person,

00:32:19.660 but in my

00:32:20.240 list,

00:32:21.240 these four

00:32:21.700 names,

00:32:22.280 Nick Fuentes,

00:32:23.460 Will Smith,

00:32:24.580 Alexander

00:32:25.060 Vindman,

00:32:25.680 and Tim

00:32:26.020 Poole.

00:32:26.760 Those were

00:32:27.280 all the

00:32:27.540 trending

00:32:27.860 names today

00:32:28.660 on my

00:32:29.300 list.

00:32:30.220 And I'm

00:32:30.500 thinking,

00:32:31.340 poor Tim

00:32:31.800 Poole.

00:32:32.900 Tim Poole

00:32:33.600 gets thrown

00:32:34.080 on the

00:32:34.400 list with

00:32:34.900 Fuentes,

00:32:35.980 Will Smith,

00:32:36.560 and Vindman.

00:32:38.020 But for

00:32:38.600 different reasons,

00:32:39.960 except that

00:32:40.500 they're all

00:32:40.760 being criticized.

00:32:42.420 Right?

00:32:42.680 They're all

00:32:43.000 being criticized,

00:32:43.920 or in some

00:32:44.400 cases,

00:32:45.480 complimented.

00:32:48.320 Speaking of

00:32:49.040 Tim Poole,

00:32:49.780 you probably

00:32:50.320 know by now

00:32:51.040 that he got

00:32:52.160 an exclusive

00:32:53.300 kind of a

00:32:54.020 scoop interview

00:32:55.200 with Ye and

00:32:56.180 Milo and

00:32:56.800 Nick Fuentes.

00:32:58.140 That would be

00:32:59.000 the first,

00:32:59.580 I think,

00:32:59.920 big,

00:33:01.060 probably the

00:33:01.540 first time

00:33:01.900 they would

00:33:02.100 appear together

00:33:02.700 since the

00:33:04.220 dinner at

00:33:05.080 Mar-a-Lago.

00:33:06.820 And if you

00:33:07.380 didn't know,

00:33:09.540 it ended

00:33:10.360 abruptly when

00:33:11.960 Tim very

00:33:12.960 carefully broached

00:33:14.520 the anti-Semitism

00:33:16.820 topic,

00:33:18.160 and then

00:33:18.900 Ye got

00:33:19.380 up and

00:33:19.840 left

00:33:20.380 without

00:33:20.680 comment.

00:33:22.560 Now,

00:33:23.860 who knows

00:33:24.560 what Ye is

00:33:25.220 thinking,

00:33:25.740 right?

00:33:25.940 It's impossible

00:33:26.500 to imagine.

00:33:28.040 But here

00:33:28.540 are the

00:33:28.740 things we

00:33:29.120 learned.

00:33:30.280 Number one,

00:33:31.080 Ye confirmed

00:33:31.740 that Trump

00:33:32.780 did not know

00:33:34.180 that Fuentes

00:33:34.780 was coming,

00:33:36.380 and Trump

00:33:37.060 did not know

00:33:38.420 who Fuentes

00:33:38.900 was.

00:33:40.820 Now,

00:33:41.180 I believe

00:33:41.560 that's true.

00:33:42.760 I believe

00:33:43.120 that's true.

00:33:44.080 Because

00:33:44.640 Axios reported

00:33:45.920 the same thing

00:33:46.620 before Ye did.

00:33:48.100 So we have

00:33:48.680 now two

00:33:49.240 sources that

00:33:50.660 are not

00:33:50.920 necessarily on

00:33:51.540 the same

00:33:51.840 side saying

00:33:53.160 the same

00:33:53.460 thing,

00:33:53.840 and also

00:33:54.520 Trump said

00:33:55.040 the same

00:33:55.320 thing.

00:33:56.040 So it

00:33:56.340 looks like

00:33:56.740 everybody's

00:33:57.900 agreeing with

00:33:58.340 that.

00:33:59.080 Now,

00:33:59.980 some people

00:34:00.640 are saying,

00:34:01.620 well,

00:34:02.360 it looks like

00:34:03.120 the Tim

00:34:04.000 Poole

00:34:04.400 interview,

00:34:06.120 as short

00:34:06.440 as it was,

00:34:07.000 about 26

00:34:07.660 minutes,

00:34:08.140 I think,

00:34:09.060 it cleared

00:34:09.880 Trump.

00:34:10.920 What do

00:34:11.140 you think?

00:34:11.960 Is Trump

00:34:12.400 cleared now

00:34:13.200 because he

00:34:13.940 didn't know

00:34:14.380 Fuentes and

00:34:15.420 did not

00:34:15.820 invite him?

00:34:16.360 Go.

00:34:17.020 Is he

00:34:17.380 cleared?

00:34:18.660 No.

00:34:20.060 Nothing

00:34:20.580 works like

00:34:21.180 that.

00:34:23.060 You're

00:34:23.540 falling into

00:34:24.120 the trap

00:34:24.580 of imagining

00:34:25.300 that any

00:34:27.460 kind of

00:34:27.800 common sense

00:34:28.480 or rational

00:34:29.120 thought is

00:34:29.720 involved here.

00:34:30.440 There's none

00:34:30.800 of that.

00:34:31.720 It's purely

00:34:32.340 a narrative

00:34:32.820 that the

00:34:33.980 left is

00:34:34.380 never going

00:34:34.780 to let

00:34:35.020 go of.

00:34:35.900 It doesn't

00:34:36.500 matter how

00:34:36.920 true or

00:34:38.000 valid or

00:34:39.040 anything.

00:34:40.000 All you

00:34:40.340 have to

00:34:40.580 know is

00:34:40.900 that they've

00:34:41.260 chosen it

00:34:41.800 as a

00:34:42.160 narrative,

00:34:42.640 that they're

00:34:42.940 going to

00:34:43.200 ride that

00:34:44.560 horse until

00:34:45.200 it expires.

00:34:46.360 And they

00:34:47.480 are.

00:34:47.900 And they're

00:34:48.220 doing a

00:34:48.500 good job

00:34:48.860 of it.

00:34:49.140 They're

00:34:49.220 really nailing

00:34:49.900 it hard.

00:34:51.280 So, no,

00:34:52.220 Trump is

00:34:52.580 done.

00:34:54.000 In my

00:34:54.380 opinion, Trump

00:34:55.020 does not

00:34:55.560 come back

00:34:56.020 from that.

00:34:56.920 I think

00:34:57.340 that was a

00:34:57.740 kill shot.

00:34:58.180 does anybody

00:35:00.300 disagree?

00:35:01.380 How many

00:35:01.940 of you think

00:35:02.360 Trump could

00:35:02.820 come back

00:35:03.220 from that?

00:35:05.640 Because,

00:35:06.180 remember,

00:35:06.480 it's not

00:35:06.760 even true.

00:35:07.960 It's like

00:35:09.140 half hoax,

00:35:10.060 half a little

00:35:10.600 bit true.

00:35:12.040 So, you

00:35:12.540 think he

00:35:12.840 can?

00:35:13.680 Now, the

00:35:14.240 argument that

00:35:14.740 he can is

00:35:15.520 that our

00:35:15.900 attention span

00:35:16.620 is too

00:35:17.000 short.

00:35:18.040 The trouble

00:35:18.520 is our

00:35:19.160 attention span

00:35:19.960 is irrelevant

00:35:20.980 if it's all

00:35:22.400 they talk

00:35:22.820 about.

00:35:23.060 Do you

00:35:26.260 remember that

00:35:27.000 Biden ran

00:35:27.980 on the

00:35:28.740 Charlottesville

00:35:29.300 hoax?

00:35:30.660 We elected

00:35:31.480 a president

00:35:32.100 on a

00:35:33.480 hoax.

00:35:34.560 It didn't

00:35:35.240 matter that

00:35:35.640 it was a

00:35:35.980 hoax.

00:35:36.880 And it

00:35:37.280 didn't matter

00:35:37.740 that it

00:35:37.980 was the

00:35:38.240 most easily

00:35:38.840 verifiable

00:35:39.500 hoax.

00:35:40.840 You just

00:35:41.200 had to

00:35:41.480 listen to

00:35:41.880 it.

00:35:42.320 Oh, okay,

00:35:43.060 that was a

00:35:43.400 hoax.

00:35:43.700 That didn't

00:35:43.940 really happen.

00:35:45.380 But think

00:35:46.700 about it.

00:35:47.740 You probably

00:35:48.780 would have

00:35:49.180 said that

00:35:50.520 Charlottesville

00:35:51.160 thing, once

00:35:51.800 it's debunked

00:35:52.560 as an

00:35:52.820 obvious

00:35:53.080 hoax, you

00:35:54.080 probably

00:35:54.320 said, well,

00:35:54.960 it's not

00:35:55.340 real, so

00:35:56.600 that's not

00:35:56.980 going to

00:35:57.180 affect anything

00:35:57.740 in the

00:35:58.020 real world.

00:35:59.220 But it

00:35:59.600 elected Biden.

00:36:00.980 It actually

00:36:01.420 changed the

00:36:02.180 nature of

00:36:02.760 our leadership

00:36:03.300 of the

00:36:03.720 biggest

00:36:03.940 country in

00:36:04.440 the world,

00:36:05.100 or the

00:36:05.660 most powerful.

00:36:08.220 So, yes,

00:36:09.960 the fact

00:36:10.740 that this

00:36:12.380 happened, even

00:36:13.080 though it

00:36:13.420 looks like an

00:36:14.000 op to me,

00:36:15.000 it wasn't

00:36:15.420 Trump's fault,

00:36:16.900 per se.

00:36:18.620 Now, I

00:36:20.100 want to give

00:36:20.560 you, you

00:36:21.660 know, I

00:36:21.880 often compliment

00:36:22.880 Mike Pence

00:36:23.960 for being a

00:36:26.080 clever politician

00:36:27.000 who avoids

00:36:27.620 getting in

00:36:28.080 trouble.

00:36:29.100 I want you

00:36:29.900 to hear how

00:36:30.440 cleverly he

00:36:31.480 criticized Trump,

00:36:34.040 because he's

00:36:34.680 really good at

00:36:35.540 this.

00:36:36.680 He wanted to

00:36:37.480 criticize him,

00:36:38.400 clearly, but

00:36:40.260 not go too

00:36:41.280 far into

00:36:41.920 crazyville,

00:36:42.760 right?

00:36:43.620 Crazyville says

00:36:45.060 that Trump

00:36:45.460 invited him.

00:36:46.920 Like, that's

00:36:47.640 too far.

00:36:48.100 So, I

00:36:49.540 hope you're

00:36:49.960 not going

00:36:50.240 to see

00:36:50.460 any

00:36:50.720 Republicans

00:36:51.440 buy into

00:36:53.760 the part

00:36:54.120 that he

00:36:54.960 got invited.

00:36:56.440 So, Pence

00:36:56.900 is too

00:36:57.280 smart to

00:36:58.120 fall into

00:36:58.520 that part.

00:36:59.420 But here's

00:36:59.820 how Pence,

00:37:00.560 who we

00:37:01.700 believe will

00:37:02.140 run against

00:37:02.720 Trump for

00:37:03.460 president.

00:37:05.740 Pence

00:37:06.260 said,

00:37:07.340 Pence says,

00:37:10.040 President

00:37:11.900 Trump was

00:37:12.480 wrong to

00:37:13.000 give a

00:37:13.280 white

00:37:13.460 nationalist

00:37:14.060 and

00:37:14.360 anti-Semite

00:37:15.200 and a

00:37:15.980 Holocaust

00:37:16.400 denier a

00:37:17.200 seat at

00:37:17.540 the table.

00:37:19.100 Blah, blah,

00:37:19.760 blah.

00:37:19.960 And then he

00:37:20.200 said it

00:37:20.500 again, a

00:37:21.040 seat at

00:37:21.400 the table.

00:37:22.120 Giving him

00:37:22.740 a seat at

00:37:23.240 the table.

00:37:24.360 Is that

00:37:25.000 not brilliant?

00:37:27.080 That is

00:37:27.700 brilliant for

00:37:28.620 political

00:37:29.300 criticism without

00:37:31.140 being technically

00:37:32.180 incorrect.

00:37:33.360 Because giving

00:37:34.180 somebody a

00:37:34.780 seat at the

00:37:35.240 table is

00:37:36.700 conceptual.

00:37:38.200 It's

00:37:38.440 conceptual.

00:37:38.880 But it

00:37:40.240 also makes

00:37:41.360 you think of

00:37:41.800 the real

00:37:42.100 thing.

00:37:43.040 Because at

00:37:43.460 the same

00:37:43.800 time there

00:37:44.180 was a

00:37:44.480 conceptual

00:37:45.000 seat at

00:37:45.620 the table,

00:37:46.440 there was

00:37:46.940 actually a

00:37:47.540 literal seat

00:37:48.120 at the

00:37:48.400 table.

00:37:51.100 Pence is

00:37:51.760 a fucking

00:37:52.120 genius.

00:37:55.100 That is

00:37:55.780 genius,

00:37:56.940 communication

00:37:57.380 wise.

00:37:58.780 I mean, I

00:38:00.080 don't think

00:38:00.520 it's an

00:38:00.860 accident that

00:38:01.500 he was such

00:38:01.980 a good

00:38:02.240 vice

00:38:02.460 president.

00:38:03.460 His

00:38:03.820 ability to

00:38:04.460 parse

00:38:04.820 words and

00:38:06.320 pick just

00:38:06.880 the right

00:38:07.400 word that

00:38:07.980 doesn't get

00:38:08.440 him in

00:38:08.800 trouble while

00:38:09.840 still saying

00:38:10.460 something is

00:38:11.540 quite impressive.

00:38:12.780 That is

00:38:13.080 quite impressive.

00:38:14.080 I don't

00:38:14.460 prefer him

00:38:15.300 for president,

00:38:16.640 but I

00:38:17.120 just like

00:38:17.580 your credit

00:38:18.320 where credit

00:38:18.740 is due.

00:38:19.240 That was

00:38:19.520 really good.

00:38:20.960 Now, you

00:38:21.420 don't like it

00:38:21.940 if you're

00:38:22.560 supporting Trump,

00:38:23.240 you don't like

00:38:23.740 it because it's

00:38:24.220 a pretty good

00:38:24.640 hit.

00:38:25.480 But a

00:38:26.280 place at the

00:38:26.880 table that

00:38:27.960 gives him

00:38:28.340 everything,

00:38:29.180 that's just

00:38:30.280 the perfect,

00:38:31.060 perfect

00:38:31.300 criticism.

00:38:31.860 Now, and

00:38:37.720 I suppose

00:38:38.100 the question

00:38:38.580 is should

00:38:38.960 Trump have

00:38:39.560 gotten up

00:38:40.900 and left?

00:38:42.280 But I

00:38:42.740 don't believe

00:38:43.160 Trump knew

00:38:43.660 exactly who

00:38:44.760 Fuentes was

00:38:45.600 the entire

00:38:46.060 dinner.

00:38:46.980 Like, I

00:38:47.260 think he

00:38:47.860 figured it

00:38:48.300 out later.

00:38:49.080 But then he

00:38:49.640 had a chance

00:38:50.140 to disavow

00:38:51.060 him.

00:38:51.760 So here's

00:38:52.140 my next

00:38:52.500 question.

00:38:54.180 Should

00:38:54.520 Trump have

00:38:55.200 disavowed

00:38:56.080 Nick Fuentes?

00:38:58.320 Go.

00:38:59.640 Should Trump

00:39:00.240 have

00:39:00.460 disavowed

00:39:01.240 Nick Fuentes?

00:39:04.880 I'm seeing

00:39:05.560 mixed messages.

00:39:08.160 Here's why

00:39:08.800 this is not

00:39:09.440 an obvious

00:39:09.880 question.

00:39:13.080 As a

00:39:13.800 citizen of

00:39:14.360 the United

00:39:14.680 States, I

00:39:15.740 can disavow

00:39:16.620 Nick Fuentes.

00:39:17.780 I disavow

00:39:18.660 him.

00:39:19.340 There, I

00:39:19.580 just did it.

00:39:20.760 So I

00:39:21.500 think you'd

00:39:21.860 all agree

00:39:22.200 that citizens

00:39:22.860 can disavow

00:39:23.720 anybody,

00:39:24.220 right?

00:39:24.460 Just an

00:39:24.820 ordinary

00:39:25.080 citizen.

00:39:25.920 Yeah, we

00:39:26.260 all have

00:39:26.520 free speech.

00:39:27.020 We can

00:39:27.240 disavow

00:39:27.740 anybody we

00:39:28.200 want.

00:39:29.040 But here's

00:39:29.480 my question.

00:39:30.240 If there's

00:39:32.140 going to

00:39:32.340 be one

00:39:32.740 exception,

00:39:34.240 there's only

00:39:34.860 one kind

00:39:35.580 of person

00:39:36.000 I want

00:39:36.520 to not

00:39:37.080 be

00:39:37.440 criticizing

00:39:38.000 citizens,

00:39:39.040 and it's

00:39:39.500 the president.

00:39:41.220 That's the

00:39:41.600 only person

00:39:42.140 I don't

00:39:42.460 want to

00:39:42.760 criticize,

00:39:44.040 a citizen

00:39:45.720 who's

00:39:46.080 obeying

00:39:46.540 the law.

00:39:47.620 This is

00:39:48.100 an important

00:39:48.560 caveat.

00:39:49.840 So given

00:39:50.340 that Fuentes

00:39:51.500 is obeying

00:39:52.840 the law,

00:39:53.300 as far as

00:39:53.680 I know,

00:39:54.780 he's not

00:39:55.340 been accused

00:39:55.780 of any

00:39:56.160 law-breaking,

00:39:56.980 as far as

00:39:57.420 I know.

00:39:58.380 So as

00:39:58.740 long as he's

00:39:59.220 a law-abiding

00:39:59.880 person who

00:40:00.540 just has

00:40:01.140 ugly opinions,

00:40:03.520 in the opinion

00:40:04.260 of many

00:40:04.680 people,

00:40:05.700 I'm perfectly

00:40:06.860 okay with

00:40:07.600 a president,

00:40:08.620 whether it's

00:40:09.020 Trump or

00:40:09.360 anybody else,

00:40:10.300 I'm perfectly

00:40:10.960 okay with

00:40:11.780 a president

00:40:12.220 criticizing

00:40:12.900 behavior and

00:40:14.880 opinions and

00:40:16.840 ugly, you

00:40:17.960 know, bad

00:40:18.380 policy ideas.

00:40:20.100 But disavowing a

00:40:21.760 person by name,

00:40:23.220 that's too far.

00:40:26.180 That feels

00:40:26.960 too far.

00:40:28.400 Now, the

00:40:29.200 exception would

00:40:31.100 be a critic.

00:40:32.760 So if a

00:40:33.400 politician goes

00:40:34.100 after somebody

00:40:34.760 who's just

00:40:35.160 been, like,

00:40:36.480 dogging them

00:40:37.020 forever, like,

00:40:37.960 you know,

00:40:39.220 Rob Reiner or

00:40:40.100 something, you

00:40:41.000 know, if a

00:40:41.400 president goes

00:40:41.920 after Rob

00:40:42.460 Reiner, it's

00:40:43.040 because that's

00:40:43.740 somebody who's

00:40:44.100 been going

00:40:44.420 after him

00:40:44.860 personally for

00:40:45.460 a long time,

00:40:45.960 that's fine.

00:40:46.720 That's just

00:40:47.100 politics.

00:40:48.060 But to go

00:40:48.720 after somebody

00:40:49.240 who has not

00:40:49.740 been criticizing

00:40:50.560 you, and

00:40:52.420 only has

00:40:52.940 opinions that

00:40:53.560 you feel are

00:40:54.180 vile, do you

00:40:56.260 want your

00:40:56.600 president to

00:40:57.400 do that?

00:40:58.660 And I say, I

00:41:00.140 do not want my

00:41:01.100 president to be

00:41:02.040 insulting any

00:41:03.960 individual citizen

00:41:05.040 with the obvious

00:41:06.800 exception of

00:41:07.480 Rosie O'Donnell.

00:41:08.260 I think we

00:41:08.640 could all agree

00:41:09.260 that if it's

00:41:11.060 Rosie O'Donnell,

00:41:11.780 that's fine.

00:41:12.540 That's fine.

00:41:13.720 But everybody

00:41:14.720 else, everybody

00:41:16.460 else, no.

00:41:17.540 No.

00:41:18.560 All right.

00:41:19.560 So I feel

00:41:21.220 like this is a

00:41:22.000 fine line, but

00:41:23.320 I think it's an

00:41:23.780 important one.

00:41:24.500 Now, I think

00:41:24.900 Trump did not

00:41:25.800 disavow Fuente's

00:41:28.580 opinions, and

00:41:30.280 that's sort of

00:41:31.220 a glaring thing

00:41:32.920 that's missing.

00:41:33.820 But I think he

00:41:34.500 could have

00:41:34.820 parsed it.

00:41:35.920 I think Trump

00:41:37.000 could have

00:41:37.260 said, you

00:41:37.520 know what?

00:41:38.740 If somebody

00:41:39.420 is obeying the

00:41:40.100 law and they

00:41:40.520 have terrible

00:41:41.020 opinions, I'm

00:41:41.640 still going to

00:41:42.000 eat with them.

00:41:43.300 But I will

00:41:44.000 disavow their

00:41:44.620 opinions.

00:41:45.260 If you'd like

00:41:45.760 to hear that,

00:41:46.340 yes, I

00:41:46.680 disavow that

00:41:47.220 opinion.

00:41:48.140 That would

00:41:48.680 work for me.

00:41:50.000 That would

00:41:50.340 work.

00:41:50.580 I say that

00:41:55.440 censorship is

00:41:56.220 the new

00:41:56.520 voting.

00:41:57.060 What do

00:41:57.200 you say?

00:41:58.560 Because we've

00:41:59.200 got this big

00:41:59.660 debate over

00:42:00.260 whether Musk

00:42:00.920 is improving

00:42:02.320 free speech

00:42:03.040 or making

00:42:04.160 it worse,

00:42:05.120 say his

00:42:05.580 critics.

00:42:06.520 But whichever

00:42:07.180 way it is,

00:42:08.420 would you

00:42:10.060 agree that

00:42:10.540 the following

00:42:11.080 is true?

00:42:13.060 That censorship

00:42:14.320 determines what

00:42:15.580 narrative is

00:42:17.480 the important

00:42:18.220 one?

00:42:18.460 would you

00:42:19.020 agree?

00:42:20.320 If you

00:42:20.900 never see a

00:42:22.120 competing

00:42:22.500 narrative, you

00:42:23.340 latch on to

00:42:24.140 the one that

00:42:24.740 you see.

00:42:25.980 So censorship

00:42:26.620 determines what

00:42:28.080 narrative rises

00:42:29.240 to our

00:42:29.940 attention, right?

00:42:31.820 And the

00:42:32.560 narrative would

00:42:33.300 determine your

00:42:34.100 opinion, right?

00:42:35.680 So that's how we

00:42:36.400 get opinions.

00:42:37.080 We don't really

00:42:37.780 make opinions on

00:42:38.640 our own.

00:42:39.940 Opinions are

00:42:40.440 essentially assigned

00:42:41.560 to us by the

00:42:42.760 way the narrative

00:42:43.820 is presented to

00:42:44.620 us.

00:42:45.560 So the

00:42:46.500 censorship

00:42:47.100 determines the

00:42:47.920 narrative.

00:42:48.460 The narrative

00:42:49.140 determines

00:42:50.120 public opinion.

00:42:51.660 Public opinion

00:42:52.500 determines what

00:42:54.280 the vote is,

00:42:55.100 because then we

00:42:55.540 vote our

00:42:56.140 opinions.

00:42:57.360 So you've

00:42:57.920 got the

00:42:58.280 censorship

00:42:58.680 determines the

00:42:59.400 narrative,

00:42:59.840 the narrative

00:43:00.220 determines our

00:43:00.900 public opinion,

00:43:01.720 our public

00:43:02.100 opinion determines

00:43:02.860 the vote.

00:43:04.500 And that's

00:43:05.280 it.

00:43:06.580 That's our

00:43:07.260 current system.

00:43:09.060 The current

00:43:09.860 system is just

00:43:11.140 a censorship

00:43:11.820 game.

00:43:13.840 The vote

00:43:14.220 actually becomes

00:43:15.100 a somewhat

00:43:16.300 subsidiary

00:43:17.280 downstream

00:43:18.100 guaranteed

00:43:19.620 effect that

00:43:21.040 is guaranteed

00:43:21.600 by what

00:43:22.080 happens

00:43:22.400 upstream.

00:43:24.020 Right?

00:43:24.240 The vote is

00:43:24.780 downstream from

00:43:25.460 censorship.

00:43:27.440 I'm borrowing

00:43:28.100 Andrew Breitbart's

00:43:29.160 famous saying

00:43:29.760 that politics is

00:43:31.180 downstream from

00:43:31.880 culture.

00:43:33.740 But the vote

00:43:36.140 is downstream

00:43:37.000 from censorship.

00:43:39.020 Now, was this

00:43:39.820 always the case?

00:43:40.780 Has this always

00:43:42.920 been our system?

00:43:43.880 Because I don't

00:43:44.340 think so.

00:43:44.800 It feels like

00:43:45.960 it's something

00:43:46.380 that could

00:43:47.000 evolve because

00:43:48.160 of social

00:43:48.680 media and

00:43:49.420 the media

00:43:50.800 landscape.

00:43:54.560 I'm just

00:43:55.180 seeing one

00:43:55.540 comment.

00:43:56.460 I think it's

00:43:56.920 I don't know

00:43:57.780 who it's for

00:43:58.340 but it just

00:43:58.700 says fuck

00:43:59.140 you.

00:43:59.740 It feels

00:44:00.000 like it's

00:44:00.300 for me

00:44:00.640 but maybe

00:44:02.880 not.

00:44:05.220 Might have

00:44:05.800 been for

00:44:06.060 another

00:44:06.300 commenter.

00:44:07.600 But this

00:44:08.420 battle over

00:44:09.220 censorship and

00:44:10.580 Twitter in

00:44:11.240 particular,

00:44:12.000 because Twitter

00:44:12.540 Twitter, as

00:44:13.620 you know, is

00:44:14.580 the lever that

00:44:15.560 moves all the

00:44:16.200 other media

00:44:16.720 because it's

00:44:18.240 the place that

00:44:18.820 the media

00:44:19.320 professionals go

00:44:20.300 to find out

00:44:21.400 what they can

00:44:21.920 get away with

00:44:22.520 and if you

00:44:23.340 can get away

00:44:23.840 with it on

00:44:24.280 Twitter, then

00:44:25.460 you can take

00:44:25.960 it to the

00:44:26.260 rest of the

00:44:26.600 world.

00:44:27.480 So this is

00:44:28.820 the biggest

00:44:29.220 battle because

00:44:31.220 our political

00:44:32.600 system is now

00:44:33.640 basically down to

00:44:35.000 what Twitter

00:44:36.100 will allow you

00:44:36.880 to see.

00:44:38.540 And I think

00:44:39.300 it has been

00:44:39.880 this way and

00:44:40.520 I think our

00:44:42.080 last election

00:44:42.920 came down to

00:44:44.600 what Twitter

00:44:45.320 allowed people

00:44:46.140 to see.

00:44:47.680 Let me ask

00:44:48.420 you this.

00:44:49.960 As many

00:44:50.400 times as the

00:44:51.660 Charlottesville

00:44:52.420 find people

00:44:53.380 thing, I'm

00:44:55.540 going to get

00:44:55.840 rid of this

00:44:56.400 guy.

00:44:57.900 As many

00:44:58.300 times as the

00:44:58.980 Charlottesville

00:44:59.700 why are you

00:45:03.360 on here saying

00:45:04.240 bad things,

00:45:04.960 Eddie?

00:45:06.700 All right,

00:45:07.500 Eddie, don't

00:45:07.980 do that.

00:45:08.340 I'm going

00:45:10.660 to turn

00:45:11.700 off the

00:45:12.180 locals.

00:45:15.440 I'm going

00:45:15.980 to keep

00:45:16.180 the locals

00:45:16.580 feed, but

00:45:17.480 I'm going

00:45:17.680 to turn

00:45:17.980 off the

00:45:18.480 open part

00:45:19.800 so it's

00:45:20.360 going to

00:45:20.560 be only

00:45:21.040 for people

00:45:21.540 who are

00:45:21.740 subscribers

00:45:22.280 because I

00:45:23.260 think I

00:45:23.540 got a

00:45:23.880 troll over

00:45:24.520 here.

00:45:25.360 So when I

00:45:25.960 turn off

00:45:26.400 the open

00:45:27.780 part, it

00:45:28.820 should get

00:45:29.140 rid of the

00:45:29.440 troll.

00:45:30.260 So we'll

00:45:30.800 do that.

00:45:31.620 If you're

00:45:32.040 on locals

00:45:32.720 and you're

00:45:33.900 not the

00:45:34.220 troll, go

00:45:34.660 over to

00:45:34.900 YouTube and

00:45:35.360 you can

00:45:35.660 watch it.

00:45:36.180 Boom.

00:45:38.900 All right,

00:45:39.260 so locals

00:45:39.800 is now

00:45:40.180 private for

00:45:40.740 subscribers.

00:45:42.640 But I'm

00:45:43.300 not wrong,

00:45:43.820 right?

00:45:44.240 The battle

00:45:44.980 over Twitter

00:45:45.580 is our

00:45:46.680 new political

00:45:47.240 system because

00:45:48.780 Twitter will

00:45:49.380 determine what

00:45:50.260 we think or

00:45:51.280 what the

00:45:51.740 journalists can

00:45:52.740 get away

00:45:53.080 with.

00:45:53.620 And back

00:45:53.880 to my

00:45:54.120 earlier point,

00:45:55.380 if Musk

00:45:56.340 had owned

00:45:56.940 Twitter before,

00:45:59.540 could Biden

00:46:00.240 have run on

00:46:01.000 the find

00:46:01.680 people hoax

00:46:02.380 and gotten

00:46:02.780 away with

00:46:03.180 it?

00:46:03.340 I'm not

00:46:05.380 sure.

00:46:06.680 I don't

00:46:07.120 think he

00:46:07.460 could have.

00:46:08.240 Because it

00:46:08.700 was only

00:46:09.020 because the

00:46:09.640 Democrats were

00:46:10.320 completely walled

00:46:11.340 off from any

00:46:12.260 hoax debunking.

00:46:13.900 They just

00:46:14.200 never saw it.

00:46:15.620 And even the

00:46:16.220 professionals never

00:46:16.980 saw it.

00:46:18.060 There are plenty

00:46:18.840 of people in the

00:46:19.620 professional reporting

00:46:20.840 journalist field who

00:46:22.420 actually believe that

00:46:23.660 the Charlottesville

00:46:26.260 find people hoax was

00:46:27.380 a real thing that

00:46:28.060 happened.

00:46:29.120 They literally

00:46:29.700 believe it

00:46:30.140 happened.

00:46:30.940 That's only

00:46:31.480 because Twitter

00:46:32.200 allowed them

00:46:33.360 not to see

00:46:33.880 the other

00:46:34.200 side.

00:46:35.380 So maybe

00:46:35.900 that'll change.

00:46:36.880 I don't know.

00:46:40.060 And certainly

00:46:40.840 Twitter has

00:46:41.400 completely changed

00:46:42.300 who is visible.

00:46:43.640 My visibility

00:46:44.380 on Twitter

00:46:45.000 went through

00:46:45.500 the roof

00:46:45.960 recently.

00:46:47.820 I don't know

00:46:48.480 if anybody's

00:46:48.940 noticed.

00:46:49.400 If you look

00:46:49.760 at my Twitter

00:46:50.200 feed, the

00:46:51.080 number of

00:46:51.440 subscribers is

00:46:52.340 climbing like

00:46:52.920 crazy faster

00:46:53.820 than ever

00:46:54.440 before.

00:46:55.760 And when I

00:46:56.920 do even a

00:46:57.640 medium quality

00:46:58.680 tweet, I get

00:47:00.760 over a

00:47:01.160 thousand likes

00:47:02.080 and that

00:47:03.420 would have

00:47:03.680 been 200

00:47:04.660 before

00:47:05.160 Musk.

00:47:06.520 So it's

00:47:07.120 probably a

00:47:07.840 5x visibility

00:47:09.460 difference for

00:47:10.940 me.

00:47:12.200 Now, you

00:47:13.120 don't think the

00:47:13.640 left was trying

00:47:14.200 to suppress

00:47:14.720 me?

00:47:16.400 If they

00:47:17.040 weren't trying

00:47:17.460 to suppress

00:47:18.080 me, they

00:47:18.560 weren't playing

00:47:19.580 the right

00:47:19.900 game.

00:47:20.600 They should

00:47:21.040 have been.

00:47:21.860 They should

00:47:22.260 have figured

00:47:22.580 out who's

00:47:23.080 making a

00:47:23.540 difference, who

00:47:24.020 can move

00:47:24.360 the needle and

00:47:25.640 focus on those

00:47:27.100 people.

00:47:27.360 all right.

00:47:31.160 Musk, this

00:47:32.060 is like the

00:47:32.460 biggest story,

00:47:34.100 I don't know,

00:47:35.660 of since the

00:47:37.520 pandemic, I

00:47:38.200 guess, or

00:47:38.620 maybe it's not

00:47:39.700 as big as

00:47:40.120 Ukraine, but

00:47:40.900 it's up there,

00:47:42.060 that Musk is

00:47:43.380 going to go

00:47:43.960 full transparency,

00:47:45.880 he's promised

00:47:46.480 us, that the

00:47:47.660 public deserves

00:47:48.480 to know what

00:47:49.340 quote really

00:47:50.280 happened at

00:47:50.960 Twitter in

00:47:52.080 terms of the

00:47:52.580 censorship.

00:47:53.760 They're actually

00:47:54.620 preparing a

00:47:55.480 full report

00:47:56.360 report that

00:47:57.060 will be on

00:47:57.520 Twitter, and

00:47:58.840 this is fun

00:47:59.340 too, Twitter

00:47:59.900 will be the

00:48:00.360 publisher.

00:48:01.680 So this is

00:48:02.280 something you

00:48:02.680 would normally

00:48:03.060 expect to be

00:48:03.740 published in

00:48:04.280 some other

00:48:04.720 place, and

00:48:05.900 Twitter would

00:48:06.380 just point to

00:48:07.000 it.

00:48:07.900 But because

00:48:08.400 it's Elon,

00:48:09.360 he's doing it

00:48:09.880 the smart way.

00:48:10.940 It will be

00:48:11.480 published on

00:48:12.300 Twitter, so

00:48:13.000 you have to

00:48:13.300 go to Twitter

00:48:13.760 and you have

00:48:14.080 to stay there

00:48:14.560 to read it.

00:48:16.700 Anybody who

00:48:17.380 says that

00:48:17.900 Musk isn't

00:48:19.640 going to make

00:48:20.020 this a better

00:48:20.540 product, you're

00:48:21.840 really not paying

00:48:22.480 attention.

00:48:23.680 He's already

00:48:24.380 made it a

00:48:24.860 better product.

00:48:25.520 There's no

00:48:26.660 question about

00:48:27.280 it.

00:48:28.240 Everything he's

00:48:29.140 doing, even

00:48:30.340 the mistakes, are

00:48:31.760 all heading in

00:48:32.280 the right

00:48:32.520 direction.

00:48:32.980 Okay, that

00:48:33.360 didn't work.

00:48:34.380 All right, that

00:48:34.860 didn't work

00:48:35.260 either, but we'll

00:48:36.020 try this.

00:48:36.800 I mean, it's

00:48:37.020 all working.

00:48:40.520 But I would

00:48:41.500 say it is also

00:48:42.840 true that the

00:48:44.080 worst racists have

00:48:46.140 returned to the

00:48:46.780 platform.

00:48:47.780 Would you

00:48:48.360 agree?

00:48:49.740 Has anybody

00:48:50.440 seen an increase

00:48:51.440 in anti-Semitism

00:48:53.240 and racism?

00:48:55.520 I have.

00:48:57.260 I've seen it.

00:48:58.280 But only

00:48:58.700 recently.

00:49:00.580 Only the last

00:49:01.400 few days.

00:49:02.200 I didn't see it

00:49:02.820 until the last

00:49:03.540 few days.

00:49:04.660 Now, maybe

00:49:05.120 because of his

00:49:05.800 amnesty or

00:49:06.500 something.

00:49:08.020 Yeah, I've

00:49:08.540 seen some super

00:49:09.620 ugly anti-Semitic

00:49:12.020 kind of stuff

00:49:13.020 lately.

00:49:14.760 Yeah, it's the

00:49:16.380 yay effect, because

00:49:17.120 people are using

00:49:18.520 that as their

00:49:19.060 topic for which

00:49:20.520 to spew.

00:49:21.820 Yeah, it's

00:49:22.680 probably the

00:49:23.020 yay effect.

00:49:24.400 But we'll see if

00:49:25.240 that's a lasting

00:49:25.840 thing or not.

00:49:26.720 Now, what's

00:49:27.040 interesting about

00:49:27.720 this is we're

00:49:28.420 going to find

00:49:28.880 out if Twitter

00:49:29.900 suppressed the

00:49:31.240 laptop story.

00:49:33.300 I hope, I don't

00:49:35.060 know if this will

00:49:35.680 happen, but

00:49:37.200 imagine this.

00:49:39.820 I don't think

00:49:40.660 this is going to

00:49:41.180 happen, but

00:49:42.680 imagine if

00:49:43.620 Musk can tell

00:49:46.020 you how

00:49:47.140 individuals were

00:49:48.500 censored.

00:49:48.960 can you

00:49:50.740 imagine that?

00:49:52.100 Could you

00:49:52.620 imagine if I

00:49:53.320 could find out

00:49:54.080 exactly how I

00:49:55.800 was censored?

00:49:57.600 Just imagine

00:49:58.160 that.

00:50:01.020 Heads would

00:50:01.740 explode everywhere.

00:50:03.420 And then let me

00:50:03.960 ask you this.

00:50:05.620 What will the

00:50:06.600 left do when

00:50:07.880 this becomes

00:50:08.440 public, if it's

00:50:09.580 as bad as we

00:50:10.480 think?

00:50:11.120 Now, I don't

00:50:11.600 want to get

00:50:11.960 ahead of the

00:50:12.380 Krakens.

00:50:13.920 I have an

00:50:16.020 unfortunate history

00:50:17.420 of imagination

00:50:18.940 imagining the

00:50:19.420 Krakens will

00:50:20.040 be reproduced

00:50:21.440 and then no

00:50:22.540 Krakens happens.

00:50:23.920 I'm definitely

00:50:24.620 a Krakens

00:50:25.960 non-denier, and

00:50:27.440 that's on me.

00:50:29.100 Yeah, I did

00:50:29.780 expect a Krakens.

00:50:31.380 Not because I

00:50:32.260 thought there was

00:50:32.780 a problem, because

00:50:33.680 I believed the

00:50:34.280 people who said

00:50:34.800 it was coming, and

00:50:36.020 I didn't know that

00:50:36.660 they were completely

00:50:37.460 non-credible, as

00:50:38.380 it turns out.

00:50:39.460 So that's on me.

00:50:40.900 I should have

00:50:41.220 seen that coming,

00:50:42.860 honestly.

00:50:43.300 But if it

00:50:45.740 happens, how is

00:50:46.460 the left going

00:50:47.300 to handle the

00:50:48.980 fact that all of

00:50:50.160 their badness has

00:50:50.980 been revealed?

00:50:52.360 Here's how I

00:50:53.100 think, and it's

00:50:54.440 already happening,

00:50:55.280 and it goes like

00:50:56.040 this.

00:50:57.280 All of that

00:50:58.180 badness was really

00:50:59.120 goodness.

00:51:00.620 That's what it'll

00:51:01.420 be.

00:51:02.940 Of course we were

00:51:04.220 suppressing Trump,

00:51:06.160 because he called

00:51:08.680 neo-Nazis fine

00:51:11.000 people.

00:51:11.280 Of course we

00:51:11.800 suppressed him.

00:51:12.760 Obviously.

00:51:13.380 Of course.

00:51:14.560 Yeah.

00:51:15.200 It won't even be

00:51:16.220 embarrassing.

00:51:17.400 It won't be

00:51:17.940 embarrassing.

00:51:19.080 Because they'll

00:51:19.660 say, yeah, we

00:51:20.600 want more of

00:51:21.120 that.

00:51:21.840 People are

00:51:22.400 actually calling

00:51:23.180 for Twitter to

00:51:24.640 return to the

00:51:25.660 rules before

00:51:26.440 Musk.

00:51:27.580 They're asking

00:51:28.460 to go back to

00:51:30.180 what they have to

00:51:30.980 know by now was

00:51:32.500 total censorship.

00:51:34.320 But they

00:51:34.880 believe they were

00:51:35.500 censoring the

00:51:36.060 right people.

00:51:39.100 Now, do you

00:51:41.120 think that

00:51:41.500 Musk has

00:51:41.960 changed the

00:51:42.500 rules on

00:51:42.980 who's censored?

00:51:45.880 I haven't

00:51:46.600 heard of it,

00:51:47.080 have you?

00:51:48.100 Because I'm

00:51:48.720 hearing people

00:51:49.160 saying, I

00:51:49.740 need Twitter to

00:51:51.020 go back to

00:51:52.360 the old rules.

00:51:54.240 The rules never

00:51:55.120 changed, have

00:51:55.660 they?

00:51:56.280 Did I miss

00:51:56.800 the story?

00:51:58.020 I believe that

00:51:59.080 Twitter has

00:52:00.520 always been

00:52:00.920 anti-hate

00:52:01.740 speech.

00:52:03.300 Anti-hate

00:52:03.980 speech.

00:52:05.760 And if there's

00:52:06.660 misinformation,

00:52:07.860 they'll put a

00:52:08.620 tag on it so

00:52:09.360 you've got some

00:52:09.820 context.

00:52:11.120 It's the same

00:52:13.240 rules, but

00:52:14.840 people are going

00:52:15.880 to imagine a

00:52:16.800 different experience,

00:52:17.760 right?

00:52:18.180 The left is going

00:52:19.140 to imagine that

00:52:19.980 Twitter turned

00:52:20.740 into a hellhole,

00:52:21.800 even if it

00:52:22.300 doesn't.

00:52:23.220 And the right is

00:52:24.060 going to imagine

00:52:24.560 that the controls

00:52:26.020 were taken off,

00:52:27.200 even if the only

00:52:27.980 thing happening is

00:52:28.820 more conservatives

00:52:29.900 are joining

00:52:30.440 Twitter, so your

00:52:31.960 traffic is going

00:52:32.680 up.

00:52:32.980 And you'll think,

00:52:33.500 oh, it's because

00:52:34.020 the censorship

00:52:34.500 came off.

00:52:35.120 So we're deeply

00:52:36.960 in confirmation

00:52:37.760 bias territory,

00:52:38.720 which is affecting

00:52:40.200 me, right?

00:52:42.020 You're going to

00:52:42.560 see it in real

00:52:43.120 time.

00:52:44.000 If you want to

00:52:44.880 see a rational

00:52:45.520 person who is

00:52:47.320 completely under

00:52:49.020 the spell of

00:52:49.760 confirmation bias,

00:52:51.080 I offer myself,

00:52:52.840 because Twitter is

00:52:54.920 such a confirmation

00:52:55.720 bias generator,

00:52:58.320 that I'm pretty

00:52:59.380 sure I'm going to

00:53:00.020 imagine my

00:53:00.720 experiences changing

00:53:01.700 on Twitter, even

00:53:03.060 if it doesn't.

00:53:04.340 I'm pretty sure

00:53:04.980 I'll imagine it

00:53:05.740 does.

00:53:06.480 Don't you agree?

00:53:07.360 So you're going

00:53:08.020 to get to watch

00:53:08.620 me falling victim

00:53:11.420 to confirmation

00:53:12.280 bias, even when

00:53:13.280 I know it.

00:53:14.280 Even when I know

00:53:15.240 it's going to

00:53:15.660 happen.

00:53:15.920 It's still going

00:53:16.320 to happen.

00:53:16.760 I don't think I

00:53:17.300 have any defense

00:53:17.940 against it.

00:53:18.700 Because you feel

00:53:19.360 the way you feel,

00:53:20.020 right?

00:53:20.380 And then you

00:53:20.860 report it.

00:53:23.460 But I'm at

00:53:24.120 least aware that

00:53:24.940 I'll be wrong.

00:53:29.940 All right.

00:53:30.580 So, what do we

00:53:37.260 think about this

00:53:38.040 yay Fuentes

00:53:39.020 business now?

00:53:41.820 Besides the fact

00:53:42.700 that it'll take

00:53:43.520 Trump out of the

00:53:44.280 race for good,

00:53:45.460 just because the

00:53:46.120 left will make us

00:53:47.200 never forget

00:53:47.840 anything else.

00:53:49.220 I mean, they'll

00:53:49.640 make us think

00:53:50.140 about it forever.

00:53:52.020 Who's Fuentes?

00:53:53.000 Yeah.

00:53:55.320 I don't know.

00:53:55.860 I mean, the fact

00:53:58.060 that these folks

00:54:00.360 all showed up.

00:54:02.220 And by the way,

00:54:04.260 somebody says

00:54:04.780 Kanye is

00:54:05.380 legitimately

00:54:05.980 anti-Semite.

00:54:07.740 It seems like

00:54:08.280 it.

00:54:10.220 You know, Kanye

00:54:11.460 has had plenty

00:54:12.080 of time to

00:54:12.780 soften his

00:54:13.720 opinion or

00:54:15.340 whatever.

00:54:16.020 But at this

00:54:16.540 point, I feel

00:54:17.620 like we can just

00:54:18.300 say he wants

00:54:19.040 us to believe

00:54:19.720 that he is

00:54:21.120 anti-Semitic.

00:54:22.520 Wouldn't you

00:54:22.960 say?

00:54:23.500 He's not telling

00:54:24.280 you he's not.

00:54:25.260 I mean, he does

00:54:26.380 that thing, I

00:54:27.040 can't be anti-Semitic.

00:54:28.040 Because I'm a Jew.

00:54:29.740 But nobody

00:54:30.360 takes that seriously.

00:54:31.820 It looks like he's

00:54:32.840 putting it out there

00:54:33.540 as that's who he

00:54:34.860 is.

00:54:37.060 Yeah.

00:54:42.280 I don't know.

00:54:42.960 We'll keep an eye

00:54:43.540 on this.

00:54:43.920 It's fun to watch.

00:54:45.440 But do you think

00:54:46.680 that Kanye is

00:54:48.120 or Ye is

00:54:49.020 operating?

00:54:49.860 By the way,

00:54:50.740 if you watch

00:54:51.400 the Tim Pool

00:54:52.680 interview with

00:54:55.180 Ye, or

00:54:56.340 especially the

00:54:57.060 aftermath,

00:54:57.780 because it

00:54:58.120 continued after

00:54:59.080 Ye left and

00:54:59.740 they had sort

00:55:00.660 of a conversation

00:55:01.300 around the table

00:55:01.900 about what

00:55:02.500 they'd experienced.

00:55:03.640 The funniest

00:55:04.380 part about it

00:55:05.180 is watching

00:55:06.080 every member

00:55:06.780 of the table

00:55:07.440 refer to him

00:55:09.080 as Kanye

00:55:09.640 and then have

00:55:10.300 to correct it.

00:55:11.940 And I thought,

00:55:12.920 that is why

00:55:14.660 Ye is Ye.

00:55:15.660 And that's why

00:55:18.080 the performer

00:55:19.900 formerly known

00:55:21.080 as Prince

00:55:21.700 was the performer

00:55:22.840 formerly known

00:55:23.620 as Prince.

00:55:24.640 One of the things

00:55:25.560 that you can do

00:55:26.640 if you're smart

00:55:27.360 enough

00:55:27.680 and you're

00:55:29.720 famous enough

00:55:30.440 is you can make

00:55:31.940 your name

00:55:32.520 really inconvenient

00:55:33.600 for other people.

00:55:36.040 And then you have

00:55:36.940 to spend a whole

00:55:37.540 bunch of time

00:55:38.100 talking about him,

00:55:39.300 like extra time,

00:55:40.700 because you've got

00:55:41.280 to correct the name.

00:55:42.480 So I'm watching

00:55:43.380 the Tim Pool

00:55:44.660 group around the table

00:55:45.860 and every one

00:55:46.980 of them made a point.

00:55:47.840 They're like,

00:55:48.400 well, Kanye,

00:55:49.180 I'm sorry,

00:55:50.320 I mean, Ye.

00:55:51.820 And then,

00:55:52.540 so what Ye did

00:55:53.220 is then,

00:55:53.640 I'm sorry,

00:55:56.060 I apologize.

00:55:57.600 I didn't mean

00:55:58.200 to do that.

00:55:58.860 If you're watching,

00:56:00.100 I meant Ye.

00:56:01.300 And every one

00:56:02.220 of them had to do it

00:56:02.940 on every comment

00:56:03.820 to the point

00:56:04.500 where it was

00:56:05.300 just ridiculous.

00:56:07.080 And they were,

00:56:08.100 you know,

00:56:08.400 noticing it themselves,

00:56:09.440 of course.

00:56:10.300 But that's one

00:56:12.140 of the ways

00:56:12.580 he draws energy.

00:56:14.160 He gets energy

00:56:14.940 because you have

00:56:15.520 to talk about him

00:56:16.200 more,

00:56:17.080 even to refer to him.

00:56:18.660 Just the simplest thing,

00:56:20.160 you have to put

00:56:20.740 extra energy into it.

00:56:22.040 So he's definitely

00:56:22.780 an energy monster

00:56:23.780 and he knows

00:56:24.800 how to attract it

00:56:25.600 and he knows

00:56:25.960 how to use it.

00:56:26.940 But what's going on now?

00:56:30.500 Does anybody think

00:56:31.600 that what we're seeing

00:56:32.520 with Ye

00:56:33.220 is some form

00:56:36.320 of genius?

00:56:37.620 Or do you think

00:56:38.120 it's mental illness?

00:56:40.120 What would you say,

00:56:40.740 genius or mental illness?

00:56:42.700 Or attention?

00:56:43.840 I guess that would be genius.

00:56:45.940 Performance art?

00:56:47.820 If you say

00:56:48.500 it's performance art,

00:56:49.420 is it genius?

00:56:51.080 Because let's say

00:56:52.060 he intended it

00:56:53.740 to be performance art.

00:56:56.240 You'd have to be insane

00:56:57.400 to think this was

00:56:58.160 going to work.

00:57:00.100 Do you think

00:57:00.800 the divorce broke him?

00:57:03.680 It looks like

00:57:04.500 the divorce broke him,

00:57:05.460 actually.

00:57:06.640 That's what I think.

00:57:08.400 Yeah, I think

00:57:09.120 the divorce actually broke him.

00:57:10.960 I think that everything

00:57:12.060 he cared about in life

00:57:13.320 was his family.

00:57:16.060 And he lost it.

00:57:17.680 And I think

00:57:18.360 he lost everything.

00:57:20.100 And I think that

00:57:21.000 when he gave up

00:57:21.680 his billions of dollars,

00:57:23.120 it's because it didn't mean

00:57:23.900 a fucking thing to him.

00:57:25.520 And he kind of says

00:57:26.260 that now, right?

00:57:28.140 He was the richest

00:57:29.520 black guy,

00:57:30.620 is that what he was saying?

00:57:31.380 The richest black guy

00:57:32.260 or something?

00:57:33.320 But he lost his family.

00:57:34.540 He had nothing.

00:57:37.920 Like that,

00:57:38.400 I think that's the story

00:57:40.040 of Yeh,

00:57:41.960 is that it looks like

00:57:43.040 he had everything

00:57:43.800 because he had riches

00:57:45.600 and multiple companies

00:57:46.940 and fame

00:57:47.640 and he was beloved

00:57:49.200 and he had a family

00:57:50.420 and he loved them

00:57:51.780 and kids.

00:57:53.020 And then the only part

00:57:54.640 he lost

00:57:55.160 was the family and kids

00:57:57.140 and what did he have left?

00:57:59.720 Nothing.

00:58:00.200 after his family

00:58:02.860 and kids

00:58:03.300 were taken from him

00:58:04.240 or, you know,

00:58:05.580 you could say

00:58:06.360 it was his own fault,

00:58:07.280 whatever.

00:58:07.760 I don't know the difference.

00:58:09.200 But once he lost that,

00:58:10.820 he actually didn't have anything.

00:58:12.800 So he tried God.

00:58:15.120 You know,

00:58:15.560 it looked like

00:58:16.180 he moved his emphasis

00:58:17.120 to religion

00:58:18.400 and it looks like

00:58:19.980 it wasn't enough.

00:58:21.620 He's trying politics

00:58:24.240 and it looks like

00:58:26.380 that's not enough.

00:58:28.180 So, to me,

00:58:29.260 this all looks like

00:58:30.880 mental illness

00:58:32.280 but caused by

00:58:35.080 a specific PTSD.

00:58:37.740 You know,

00:58:38.100 I'm speaking

00:58:38.860 in my layman terms.

00:58:40.700 I'm using all the wrong words

00:58:41.900 for mental illness

00:58:42.680 but you know what I mean, right?

00:58:44.660 I believe he was maybe

00:58:46.620 as all geniuses are,

00:58:49.400 you know,

00:58:49.660 a little bit crazy.

00:58:50.740 Artistic geniuses, anyway.

00:58:52.400 The artistic geniuses

00:58:53.780 tend to be

00:58:54.100 a little bit crazy

00:58:54.860 and a little bit genius

00:58:55.900 at the same time.

00:58:57.180 And I think that

00:58:58.060 the divorce broke him

00:59:00.120 and it just pushed him

00:59:01.400 into the wrong side.

00:59:02.840 That's what it looks like.

00:59:05.220 Because I don't see

00:59:06.160 anything here

00:59:06.660 that looks like

00:59:07.180 a good strategy,

00:59:08.100 do you?

00:59:09.540 If I did,

00:59:10.340 I'd call it out.

00:59:11.440 Like, I'd love to tell you,

00:59:12.920 oh, you're all missing

00:59:13.860 the clever play.

00:59:15.620 You know,

00:59:15.880 if you knew

00:59:16.360 as much as I do

00:59:18.920 about persuasion,

00:59:21.380 you'd see how cleverly

00:59:22.640 he's playing you all.

00:59:23.560 but I don't see that.

00:59:25.720 I see somebody

00:59:26.840 who's working

00:59:27.720 through some problems.

00:59:29.540 That's all,

00:59:30.060 that's what I see.

00:59:31.440 Now,

00:59:33.160 the next part is hard.

00:59:39.120 You know,

00:59:39.760 the way he's treated

00:59:41.840 the anti-Semitism issue,

00:59:46.300 it's very,

00:59:47.640 it's very ugly.

00:59:49.780 And like,

00:59:50.200 I can't be in favor of that.

00:59:51.640 I can't have any empathy

00:59:52.780 for that at all.

00:59:54.180 But at the same time,

00:59:55.120 I have empathy for him.

00:59:57.260 Because to me,

00:59:58.260 I see a victim.

01:00:00.320 And maybe it was a victim

01:00:02.900 that people ganged up on him.

01:00:04.520 You know,

01:00:04.700 maybe his,

01:00:05.420 maybe his trainer

01:00:07.100 who had some kind of

01:00:08.760 weird background

01:00:09.800 and threatened him,

01:00:11.180 we know.

01:00:12.120 Maybe he was part of it.

01:00:14.040 I don't know.

01:00:15.140 But he looks like somebody

01:00:16.520 who was destroyed

01:00:17.560 by people

01:00:18.580 who had an agenda

01:00:19.460 of some sort.

01:00:20.940 Now,

01:00:22.740 you could argue

01:00:23.220 that he wasn't strong enough

01:00:24.360 to avoid that destruction.

01:00:27.820 That's always another way

01:00:28.780 to look at it.

01:00:30.920 But I have empathy

01:00:32.260 for Ye.

01:00:33.940 At the same time,

01:00:35.180 I severely

01:00:36.180 disavow his opinions,

01:00:38.880 which I feel like

01:00:40.000 is the way

01:00:40.540 a president should have

01:00:41.440 approached it.

01:00:42.680 I think a president

01:00:43.560 should say,

01:00:44.320 I have great empathy.

01:00:45.720 It looks like he's

01:00:46.340 going through a tough time.

01:00:47.320 But, you know,

01:00:49.380 still I have to disavow

01:00:50.500 what he said

01:00:51.000 completely.

01:00:53.800 All right.

01:00:59.880 I wonder if everything's,

01:01:01.400 I can't get off

01:01:02.340 of this topic,

01:01:03.000 but I wonder if everything's

01:01:04.100 going to be different

01:01:04.640 after we find out

01:01:05.440 what Twitter actually did.

01:01:07.860 Like,

01:01:08.160 how deep does that go?

01:01:10.560 For example,

01:01:12.160 just as an example,

01:01:13.760 here are the things

01:01:14.420 we might find out.

01:01:16.520 What if we find out

01:01:17.740 what organized groups

01:01:19.940 were organizing trolls?

01:01:22.520 Suppose if you found out

01:01:23.660 who the troll masters are.

01:01:25.640 Like,

01:01:25.940 wouldn't you love

01:01:26.380 to know that?

01:01:27.500 What if we found out

01:01:28.740 how much foreign influence

01:01:30.240 there's been at Twitter?

01:01:33.960 How much do you want

01:01:35.320 to know that?

01:01:37.000 Like,

01:01:37.420 a lot?

01:01:38.660 Yeah.

01:01:39.720 How about

01:01:40.560 our own intel

01:01:41.700 and FBI?

01:01:42.480 How much influence

01:01:44.100 have they had?

01:01:46.280 Has anybody

01:01:47.180 who's not a Twitter employee

01:01:48.740 ever had direct access

01:01:50.920 to cancel people?

01:01:52.860 Wouldn't you like

01:01:53.360 to know that?

01:01:54.460 Wouldn't you like

01:01:55.180 to know if there's

01:01:55.900 any app

01:01:56.660 that allowed

01:01:57.940 any law enforcement

01:01:59.200 or anybody

01:01:59.900 to change

01:02:01.160 a Twitter experience

01:02:02.340 where Twitter

01:02:03.480 didn't even have

01:02:04.060 to approve it?

01:02:04.700 It was just giving

01:02:05.300 somebody else

01:02:05.840 a button to push.

01:02:07.380 Wouldn't you like

01:02:07.860 to know?

01:02:09.120 Because I'll bet

01:02:09.840 somebody did.

01:02:11.080 I'll bet somebody

01:02:12.020 outside of Twitter

01:02:13.200 had a button.

01:02:15.260 It just feels like

01:02:16.120 that's the type of thing

01:02:17.040 we'd find out.

01:02:18.180 I have no evidence

01:02:19.000 of that.

01:02:19.380 It just feels like it.

01:02:21.700 What else

01:02:22.340 are we going to find out?

01:02:25.280 Will we find out

01:02:26.460 that our user accounts

01:02:28.180 are completely artificial?

01:02:31.140 And that,

01:02:31.880 you know,

01:02:32.220 will I find out

01:02:33.320 that of my

01:02:34.100 almost 800,000 followers,

01:02:36.420 what if I find out

01:02:37.340 that half of them

01:02:38.060 are bots

01:02:38.680 for Republicans

01:02:40.380 who thought

01:02:41.080 they liked

01:02:41.540 boosting my signal?

01:02:43.780 Totally possible.

01:02:46.420 Totally possible.

01:02:48.180 Right?

01:02:49.500 Could be.

01:02:51.260 Yeah.

01:02:52.580 I mean,

01:02:53.040 I have no idea

01:02:53.840 how deep

01:02:54.580 this hole is,

01:02:56.160 but wow,

01:02:57.020 am I interested.

01:02:58.500 Now,

01:02:59.260 apparently Apple

01:03:00.160 has threatened

01:03:00.760 Twitter

01:03:01.240 because of

01:03:02.600 this censorship stuff.

01:03:05.140 Apple has threatened

01:03:06.100 to take the Twitter app

01:03:07.440 out of the app store,

01:03:08.720 which would

01:03:09.120 pretty much

01:03:09.980 kill Twitter

01:03:10.520 as a viable business.

01:03:13.200 Do you think

01:03:14.020 that Apple

01:03:14.720 would execute that?

01:03:16.780 Do you think

01:03:17.180 that Apple

01:03:17.640 would drop

01:03:18.180 the nuclear option

01:03:19.880 on Twitter?

01:03:22.060 Because if they do,

01:03:23.260 the reason would be

01:03:24.140 that they say

01:03:25.220 there are too many,

01:03:26.440 too much hate speech,

01:03:27.680 right?

01:03:28.440 So it would be

01:03:28.940 a hate speech thing.

01:03:30.760 Now,

01:03:31.020 isn't this hate speech

01:03:31.960 thing really subjective?

01:03:34.560 Meaning you could say,

01:03:36.240 yes,

01:03:36.460 that's too much

01:03:37.260 hate speech

01:03:37.840 or that's not

01:03:38.460 too much hate speech?

01:03:39.960 Isn't that kind

01:03:40.820 of just an opinion?

01:03:42.080 How much is too much

01:03:43.040 and how much is free speech?

01:03:44.800 Because all free speech

01:03:45.920 has some,

01:03:46.460 you know,

01:03:46.800 hate baked into it.

01:03:50.040 Yeah.

01:03:51.380 So,

01:03:52.060 my first impression

01:03:53.740 was this,

01:03:55.020 that it would be

01:03:55.600 such a suicide play

01:03:57.080 that Apple

01:03:57.620 would never do it.

01:03:58.940 Because if Apple

01:03:59.580 did it,

01:03:59.980 they would lose,

01:04:00.820 I don't know,

01:04:01.520 20% of the customers

01:04:02.840 overnight,

01:04:04.000 something like that.

01:04:04.640 I mean,

01:04:05.480 I would,

01:04:06.360 I'm totally

01:04:07.160 in the Apple universe,

01:04:08.780 but I'd have to think

01:04:09.920 really seriously

01:04:10.720 about dumping them

01:04:11.580 forever

01:04:11.920 if they killed Twitter.

01:04:14.120 Because to me,

01:04:14.860 that would be

01:04:15.180 attack on the Republic.

01:04:17.940 Does it feel like

01:04:18.760 that to you?

01:04:19.500 Sure.

01:04:20.180 And it wouldn't feel

01:04:21.000 exactly like an attack

01:04:22.120 on Twitter users.

01:04:23.820 To me,

01:04:24.220 that would feel like

01:04:24.800 a direct attack

01:04:25.560 on the Republic.

01:04:27.640 That's how I'd take it.

01:04:28.720 To me,

01:04:30.580 that wouldn't look

01:04:31.060 like free market.

01:04:33.080 That wouldn't look

01:04:33.800 like any kind

01:04:34.360 of free market thing.

01:04:35.300 That would look

01:04:35.720 like just the worst thing.

01:04:40.180 So,

01:04:40.560 my first impression

01:04:41.240 was Apple

01:04:41.900 would never take

01:04:42.680 a risk that big.

01:04:44.700 Because they don't

01:04:45.400 take risks like that.

01:04:47.140 That's just not

01:04:47.880 an Apple thing.

01:04:49.780 But here's my second risk.

01:04:52.520 Tim Cook

01:04:53.160 might be the only person

01:04:55.300 in the world

01:04:56.080 who leans Democrat

01:04:58.860 who could stop

01:05:00.680 Musk

01:05:01.200 from creating

01:05:02.980 free speech.

01:05:04.760 There's only one person

01:05:05.960 who could stop it.

01:05:06.900 Maybe you could argue

01:05:08.000 Google could too.

01:05:10.180 One guy.

01:05:12.340 Do you know

01:05:13.180 how much pressure

01:05:14.060 Tim Cook

01:05:14.640 is going to get

01:05:15.220 from everybody

01:05:16.200 he knows and loves?

01:05:18.240 You don't think

01:05:19.020 the top Democrats

01:05:19.900 have already talked

01:05:20.620 to Tim Cook

01:05:21.240 and said,

01:05:21.640 you know,

01:05:22.520 you know what would

01:05:23.380 make you awesome?

01:05:24.980 You know what would

01:05:25.920 make us love you

01:05:26.800 even more?

01:05:28.660 If you could just

01:05:29.600 do this one thing

01:05:30.460 for us.

01:05:30.920 Just kill Twitter.

01:05:33.200 Yeah.

01:05:34.580 And I think

01:05:36.020 he might actually

01:05:36.660 do it.

01:05:38.140 It's the sort of thing

01:05:39.140 that no rational

01:05:40.000 business person

01:05:40.860 would do.

01:05:41.700 But I don't think

01:05:42.660 we're in rational

01:05:43.440 business person territory.

01:05:44.740 I think we're in

01:05:46.300 virtue signaling territory.

01:05:49.460 And here's what

01:05:50.160 I think might happen.

01:05:51.720 I'm going to make

01:05:52.440 a tentative prediction

01:05:53.760 that if Tim Cook

01:05:56.460 removes Twitter

01:05:58.420 from the

01:05:59.800 Apple store

01:06:01.200 that the board

01:06:03.260 at Twitter

01:06:03.700 is going to

01:06:04.160 remove Tim Cook.

01:06:06.420 That Tim Cook

01:06:06.980 would lose his job

01:06:07.900 for that.

01:06:10.200 Right?

01:06:11.440 Because I would

01:06:12.300 certainly never

01:06:12.860 buy an Apple product

01:06:13.880 while he was still

01:06:14.680 CEO.

01:06:16.120 I wouldn't have.

01:06:16.980 I'd be done.

01:06:18.540 I would say,

01:06:19.640 I'll still buy

01:06:20.460 Apple products,

01:06:21.320 but you've got to

01:06:21.800 get rid of that guy

01:06:22.560 because I like the

01:06:23.680 products.

01:06:24.080 I don't want to

01:06:24.520 deny myself a good

01:06:25.480 product.

01:06:26.580 I love Apple.

01:06:27.920 I'm a really big

01:06:28.840 Apple fan.

01:06:29.600 I have stock,

01:06:30.520 by the way,

01:06:31.020 so I'm not

01:06:31.840 unbiased.

01:06:32.920 So I love Apple,

01:06:34.320 but if one person

01:06:37.040 decides to attack

01:06:38.300 the Republic,

01:06:40.140 I'm going to act

01:06:41.400 on that pretty

01:06:41.960 quickly.

01:06:44.600 All right.

01:06:45.260 Here is how

01:06:45.920 Twitter can

01:06:46.940 destroy Apple.

01:06:48.160 I also own

01:06:50.500 some Tesla stock,

01:06:52.540 and so,

01:06:54.000 you know,

01:06:54.460 I don't know

01:06:55.620 if I have any

01:06:56.120 indirect benefit

01:06:57.000 from that,

01:06:57.620 but...

01:06:58.640 Your current

01:07:01.800 phone is

01:07:02.720 an absolute

01:07:03.980 piece of shit.

01:07:05.420 Has anybody

01:07:05.720 ever noticed

01:07:06.220 that?

01:07:07.100 Has anybody

01:07:07.520 noticed that

01:07:08.060 your phone

01:07:08.460 is a complete

01:07:09.460 piece of shit?

01:07:11.180 Now,

01:07:11.740 it's a

01:07:12.200 technological

01:07:12.800 wonder,

01:07:13.420 but may I

01:07:16.700 do a skit

01:07:18.440 of me using

01:07:19.900 the worst

01:07:20.500 interface ever

01:07:21.260 designed?

01:07:22.160 Okay.

01:07:23.400 Here's me.

01:07:24.480 I think I'd

01:07:25.480 like to send

01:07:26.880 a message.

01:07:28.700 Step one,

01:07:30.240 find which

01:07:31.020 app to use

01:07:32.100 to send the

01:07:32.660 message.

01:07:34.260 Now,

01:07:35.460 I'm in already,

01:07:36.380 my brain's in

01:07:36.960 the wrong place.

01:07:38.260 The message

01:07:38.840 is in my head.

01:07:40.500 I'm forming

01:07:41.220 the message

01:07:41.720 that I want

01:07:42.100 to send and

01:07:42.580 who I want

01:07:42.940 to send it

01:07:43.300 to,

01:07:43.760 and then I

01:07:44.180 pick up my

01:07:44.600 phone,

01:07:44.920 and the

01:07:45.120 first thing

01:07:45.520 my phone

01:07:45.900 does is

01:07:46.780 make me

01:07:47.160 think about

01:07:47.600 something else.

01:07:50.200 Fail.

01:07:51.660 Failure.

01:07:52.820 My phone

01:07:53.360 should be

01:07:53.660 a blank

01:07:53.960 screen,

01:07:56.000 and there

01:07:57.020 should be

01:07:57.340 no apps.

01:07:58.740 There should

01:07:59.080 be no apps.

01:08:00.360 There should

01:08:00.720 be one AI

01:08:01.840 that guesses

01:08:03.880 what I'm

01:08:04.400 trying to do

01:08:05.100 when I start

01:08:05.760 doing it.

01:08:06.780 I should be

01:08:07.580 able to just

01:08:08.080 do what I

01:08:08.840 want and have

01:08:09.600 the AI guess

01:08:10.420 what I want,

01:08:11.060 what I intended.

01:08:11.920 For example,

01:08:12.580 I would have

01:08:13.720 a blank

01:08:14.120 screen and

01:08:15.160 pick it up

01:08:15.620 and start

01:08:16.060 saying,

01:08:17.500 yes,

01:08:19.160 thank you.

01:08:20.640 Please do

01:08:21.700 buy those

01:08:22.460 groceries we

01:08:23.060 were talking

01:08:23.420 about.

01:08:24.940 And then as

01:08:25.860 I'm writing

01:08:26.220 the message,

01:08:26.800 I want the

01:08:27.180 AI to look

01:08:27.820 at it and

01:08:28.120 say, oh,

01:08:29.300 this person

01:08:29.880 is typing

01:08:30.320 a message.

01:08:31.320 So he

01:08:32.020 doesn't want

01:08:32.660 to consume

01:08:34.340 information.

01:08:35.460 He's in

01:08:36.000 producing mode.

01:08:37.100 So at

01:08:38.040 the top,

01:08:38.700 it would

01:08:39.020 produce all

01:08:39.540 the apps

01:08:40.080 or the

01:08:40.980 directions

01:08:41.820 the message

01:08:42.440 could go

01:08:42.920 from WhatsApp

01:08:44.300 to Telegram

01:08:45.320 to whatever.

01:08:46.680 And then

01:08:46.960 after I

01:08:47.360 make the

01:08:47.680 message and

01:08:48.760 I've done

01:08:49.060 all my

01:08:49.380 thinking,

01:08:50.380 then I'm

01:08:51.120 done thinking

01:08:51.740 and now I

01:08:52.580 say, well,

01:08:53.220 which app

01:08:53.640 did I want

01:08:54.040 to pick?

01:08:55.280 Boop.

01:08:57.980 Here's what's

01:08:58.660 wrong with

01:08:58.960 your phone.

01:09:00.840 It's built

01:09:01.560 for the app

01:09:02.280 makers.

01:09:03.500 Your phone

01:09:04.200 is not

01:09:04.540 built for

01:09:05.060 the user.

01:09:05.720 It's built

01:09:06.260 for the

01:09:06.760 app market.

01:09:08.340 It's built

01:09:08.840 to make it

01:09:09.300 a viable

01:09:10.380 commercial

01:09:10.980 market.

01:09:11.820 To do

01:09:12.240 that, you

01:09:12.780 need apps.

01:09:14.700 Do you

01:09:15.300 need an

01:09:15.660 app?

01:09:16.640 How many

01:09:17.080 of you

01:09:17.340 woke up

01:09:17.780 and said,

01:09:18.160 you know,

01:09:19.220 if only I

01:09:19.820 had an

01:09:20.100 app?

01:09:20.940 No, apps

01:09:21.620 are bullshit.

01:09:22.660 Apps are

01:09:23.060 trouble.

01:09:23.820 Apps are

01:09:24.100 extra work.

01:09:25.280 Apps make

01:09:25.740 you have to

01:09:26.360 sign on

01:09:27.280 again.

01:09:27.820 Apps make

01:09:28.780 your password

01:09:29.340 go away.

01:09:30.320 Apps can

01:09:30.760 kick you

01:09:31.180 off the

01:09:31.500 platform.

01:09:32.740 Apps are

01:09:33.180 all the

01:09:33.680 problems.

01:09:35.260 I just

01:09:35.880 want to

01:09:36.180 know what

01:09:36.500 I want

01:09:36.780 to do

01:09:37.080 and start

01:09:37.560 doing it.

01:09:39.400 Now, I

01:09:39.980 might have

01:09:40.300 two choices,

01:09:41.280 either producing

01:09:42.040 or consuming.

01:09:43.960 So if I

01:09:44.400 want to

01:09:44.680 consume, I

01:09:46.040 say, oh,

01:09:46.720 I'm bored.

01:09:47.480 I want to

01:09:47.780 consume.

01:09:48.620 And I

01:09:48.900 can look at

01:09:49.360 some Instagram

01:09:50.220 posts and

01:09:50.880 stuff like

01:09:51.240 that.

01:09:52.260 So I

01:09:52.960 think that

01:09:54.020 the entire

01:09:54.520 interface of

01:09:55.340 phones,

01:09:56.980 somebody,

01:09:58.240 and it

01:09:58.540 could be

01:09:58.900 Elon Musk

01:09:59.420 someday,

01:10:00.240 somebody needs

01:10:00.940 to develop

01:10:01.640 the AI

01:10:02.480 version that

01:10:03.680 just guesses

01:10:04.280 what you

01:10:04.660 want to

01:10:04.960 do and

01:10:05.940 gives you

01:10:06.280 the options

01:10:06.820 but makes

01:10:07.280 you think

01:10:07.740 about it

01:10:08.140 after you've

01:10:08.640 done your

01:10:08.940 work.

01:10:09.900 So you

01:10:10.180 want to

01:10:10.460 work first

01:10:11.260 and then do

01:10:12.560 the details

01:10:13.160 of where

01:10:13.500 that work

01:10:13.900 goes.

01:10:14.860 Does that

01:10:15.280 make sense?

01:10:16.360 How many

01:10:16.860 of you think

01:10:17.420 that the

01:10:18.540 basic model

01:10:19.360 of an

01:10:19.840 app-driven

01:10:20.420 phone,

01:10:21.360 I mean,

01:10:21.580 look at all

01:10:21.820 my fucking

01:10:22.240 apps.

01:10:24.760 Nobody in

01:10:25.520 the world

01:10:25.900 would have

01:10:26.240 invented this

01:10:26.980 for the

01:10:27.860 consumer.

01:10:29.260 You tell

01:10:29.900 me that

01:10:30.220 there's

01:10:30.460 any

01:10:30.780 user

01:10:31.840 who would

01:10:32.760 say,

01:10:33.040 yeah,

01:10:33.500 here's

01:10:33.840 what I

01:10:34.100 want.

01:10:34.720 I want

01:10:35.040 to have

01:10:35.240 to go

01:10:35.440 search

01:10:35.760 for a

01:10:36.040 fucking

01:10:36.260 app

01:10:36.620 and

01:10:36.820 every

01:10:37.000 time

01:10:37.200 I

01:10:37.300 got to

01:10:37.500 sign

01:10:37.740 up

01:10:38.060 and

01:10:38.200 subscribe

01:10:38.980 and

01:10:39.600 all that

01:10:40.460 bullshit.

01:10:41.300 Here's

01:10:41.660 what I

01:10:41.900 want to

01:10:42.120 do.

01:10:42.780 I want

01:10:43.380 to open

01:10:44.080 up my

01:10:44.400 blank

01:10:44.700 screen

01:10:45.100 and say

01:10:45.720 100

01:10:46.940 plus

01:10:47.900 300

01:10:48.760 and as

01:10:49.740 soon as

01:10:50.080 I type

01:10:50.500 100

01:10:50.940 plus

01:10:51.300 300,

01:10:51.940 I want

01:10:52.240 the AI

01:10:52.740 on my

01:10:53.080 phone

01:10:53.360 to say,

01:10:53.800 oh,

01:10:54.580 he wants

01:10:54.880 a

01:10:55.040 spreadsheet.

01:10:55.940 Boop.

01:10:57.200 And as

01:10:57.800 I'm typing,

01:10:58.840 a spreadsheet

01:10:59.360 appears and

01:11:01.920 now I can

01:11:02.860 just keep

01:11:03.200 going.

01:11:04.500 Because I

01:11:04.880 don't want

01:11:05.360 to pick a

01:11:05.800 spreadsheet,

01:11:06.620 I just

01:11:07.000 want to

01:11:07.240 start working

01:11:07.800 and have

01:11:08.240 the spreadsheet

01:11:08.740 form around

01:11:09.600 me because

01:11:10.340 it's obvious

01:11:10.840 I'm in

01:11:11.380 spreadsheet

01:11:11.720 mode.

01:11:13.560 Right?

01:11:16.420 Why does

01:11:17.520 a document

01:11:18.020 have to be

01:11:18.720 one for a

01:11:19.960 spreadsheet and

01:11:20.580 one for

01:11:20.940 typing?

01:11:23.180 Who does

01:11:23.780 decide that

01:11:24.620 I need a

01:11:25.460 separate app

01:11:26.120 to put a

01:11:26.700 spreadsheet in

01:11:27.420 the middle

01:11:27.760 of my

01:11:28.240 Word document?

01:11:29.340 Not me.

01:11:30.580 If you'd

01:11:30.960 ask me,

01:11:31.740 there would

01:11:33.100 be no

01:11:33.420 apps.

01:11:33.900 I'd just

01:11:34.200 do what

01:11:34.660 I want

01:11:34.920 to do

01:11:35.240 and it

01:11:36.140 all works.

01:11:37.340 So here's

01:11:38.020 the problem

01:11:38.880 that Apple

01:11:39.860 has.

01:11:41.260 Apple and

01:11:41.840 Google are

01:11:42.300 both legacy

01:11:43.040 user interfaces

01:11:44.100 and it

01:11:45.180 would be

01:11:45.420 really,

01:11:46.340 really hard

01:11:46.800 for them

01:11:47.180 to change.

01:11:48.620 But if

01:11:49.200 Musk decides

01:11:49.940 to compete

01:11:50.420 with them,

01:11:51.600 what if he

01:11:52.040 does it

01:11:52.340 without apps?

01:11:53.780 What if

01:11:54.540 he does

01:11:54.820 it with

01:11:55.100 a super

01:11:55.560 AI?

01:11:57.160 And here's

01:11:57.860 what a

01:11:58.100 phone should

01:11:58.520 be.

01:11:59.360 Your phone

01:11:59.840 should have

01:12:00.200 nothing on

01:12:00.680 it but a

01:12:00.980 password and

01:12:01.840 5G.

01:12:03.900 That's it.

01:12:05.100 Just a

01:12:05.500 password and

01:12:07.180 5G.

01:12:08.480 And a

01:12:09.160 minor operating

01:12:10.360 system.

01:12:11.100 But everything

01:12:11.560 else should

01:12:11.960 happen in

01:12:12.320 the cloud

01:12:12.760 through AI

01:12:14.040 and then it

01:12:15.120 should deliver

01:12:15.560 it to you.

01:12:16.340 And when I

01:12:16.700 replace my

01:12:17.360 phone, the

01:12:18.480 phone should

01:12:18.900 cost me like

01:12:19.540 $100.

01:12:19.940 because the

01:12:22.260 phone is

01:12:22.580 just a

01:12:22.940 dumb

01:12:23.220 screen and

01:12:24.580 all the

01:12:24.880 intelligence

01:12:25.320 happens in

01:12:25.880 the network

01:12:26.300 at 5G

01:12:26.940 speed or

01:12:28.220 and through

01:12:29.260 right?

01:12:34.880 How many

01:12:35.560 of you think

01:12:36.080 I'm onto

01:12:36.700 something?

01:12:37.480 Because here's

01:12:39.000 the part I

01:12:39.360 can guarantee.

01:12:41.140 I can

01:12:41.820 guarantee you

01:12:42.540 with 100%

01:12:43.640 certainty that

01:12:45.200 in 100 years

01:12:46.060 there will be

01:12:46.400 no such thing

01:12:47.040 as a

01:12:47.320 smartphone with

01:12:48.060 apps.

01:12:48.420 You'd all

01:12:49.860 agree with

01:12:50.320 that, right?

01:12:51.320 Because there's

01:12:51.800 no way this

01:12:52.320 model is the

01:12:53.320 one that

01:12:53.640 lasts.

01:12:54.640 It's just

01:12:55.240 too stupid.

01:12:57.000 So Musk

01:12:57.860 can put

01:12:58.820 Apple on a

01:12:59.380 business.

01:13:01.800 He can.

01:13:04.580 And the

01:13:05.640 technology to

01:13:06.440 do that only

01:13:07.060 just came

01:13:07.700 online.

01:13:08.340 Because you

01:13:08.840 need 5G

01:13:09.700 or satellites,

01:13:11.560 those are

01:13:12.140 online,

01:13:13.360 and you

01:13:14.580 would need

01:13:15.060 super fast

01:13:15.980 chips so

01:13:17.040 that they

01:13:17.340 could handle

01:13:17.880 a remote

01:13:18.780 processing.

01:13:20.260 And you'd

01:13:20.940 get rid of

01:13:21.360 apps, and

01:13:21.940 AI could

01:13:22.440 get rid

01:13:22.760 of apps.

01:13:23.760 Right?

01:13:25.660 I don't

01:13:26.280 even know if

01:13:26.980 AI would

01:13:27.480 need to

01:13:27.800 build you

01:13:28.200 an app.

01:13:29.400 I think

01:13:29.820 AI could

01:13:30.460 just sort

01:13:31.340 of handle

01:13:32.160 what you

01:13:32.520 needed without

01:13:33.920 you ever

01:13:34.420 being aware

01:13:34.920 that there's

01:13:35.360 something like

01:13:35.920 an app.

01:13:39.180 All right.

01:13:40.040 So if you

01:13:40.880 didn't think

01:13:41.360 that Elon

01:13:41.980 Musk could

01:13:42.440 put Apple

01:13:43.020 on a

01:13:43.340 business,

01:13:44.320 you actually

01:13:44.840 can't.

01:13:46.240 It would

01:13:46.680 be hard,

01:13:48.020 but there

01:13:48.500 is actually

01:13:49.140 a path

01:13:49.660 where Elon

01:13:50.240 Musk

01:13:50.560 personally

01:13:51.140 could put

01:13:51.520 Apple

01:13:51.780 on a

01:13:52.040 business

01:13:52.340 with just

01:13:53.900 leapfrogging

01:13:54.520 the technology

01:13:55.200 of the phone.

01:13:56.700 Probably

01:13:57.220 won't happen,

01:13:57.800 yes,

01:13:58.080 probably won't

01:13:58.580 happen.

01:14:02.900 Did you

01:14:03.540 see the

01:14:04.200 Maricopa

01:14:05.720 hearings about

01:14:06.460 the election?

01:14:07.740 Anybody

01:14:08.040 watch the

01:14:08.640 video from

01:14:09.160 that?

01:14:11.200 So in

01:14:12.580 Maricopa,

01:14:13.260 there were

01:14:13.500 public hearings

01:14:14.160 before they

01:14:14.720 certified the

01:14:15.380 election.

01:14:16.080 It was the

01:14:16.560 Cary Lake

01:14:17.180 versus Hobbes

01:14:18.040 one where

01:14:18.460 Cary Lake

01:14:19.040 lost according

01:14:20.380 to the

01:14:20.740 certification.

01:14:22.180 Now they

01:14:22.580 did certify

01:14:23.220 it, but

01:14:23.800 not until

01:14:24.240 listening to

01:14:24.780 the public

01:14:25.300 just rake

01:14:26.460 the officials

01:14:27.120 for what

01:14:27.840 a bad job

01:14:28.400 they did.

01:14:29.440 And when

01:14:29.680 you hear all

01:14:30.600 the anecdotal

01:14:31.560 reports,

01:14:33.420 these are

01:14:33.840 unconfirmed

01:14:34.660 things, it's

01:14:35.340 just people

01:14:35.760 talking, so

01:14:36.940 it's anecdotal,

01:14:38.060 but the

01:14:39.000 anecdotal reports

01:14:39.940 are just

01:14:40.300 vicious.

01:14:40.720 If you

01:14:44.000 hear them

01:14:44.400 out of

01:14:44.720 context,

01:14:45.540 without the

01:14:46.360 officials

01:14:46.820 responding to

01:14:48.220 why it's

01:14:48.580 not such a

01:14:49.140 big problem,

01:14:50.100 if you're

01:14:50.520 out of

01:14:50.840 context, it

01:14:51.480 just sounds

01:14:51.920 like the

01:14:52.220 whole election

01:14:52.800 was just

01:14:53.200 totally,

01:14:53.580 totally just

01:14:55.200 screwed the

01:14:55.700 pooch, like

01:14:56.360 nothing about

01:14:57.060 it was

01:14:57.320 credible.

01:14:58.140 But here's

01:14:58.860 the part

01:14:59.260 that I want

01:15:00.260 to summarize.

01:15:02.300 If you

01:15:03.040 knew that

01:15:04.700 the difference

01:15:05.280 between a

01:15:06.080 Republican and

01:15:06.920 a Democrat

01:15:07.420 victory was

01:15:09.420 how inconvenient

01:15:10.760 it was to

01:15:11.620 vote on

01:15:12.320 election day,

01:15:13.540 because Democrats

01:15:14.460 vote by mail

01:15:15.460 more often,

01:15:16.960 if you could

01:15:17.800 make voting

01:15:18.360 on the day

01:15:19.560 of a little

01:15:20.380 bit inconvenient,

01:15:21.480 wouldn't that

01:15:21.820 be enough to

01:15:22.340 throw the

01:15:22.680 election?

01:15:23.760 That's all it

01:15:24.240 would take,

01:15:24.620 right?

01:15:25.620 You simply

01:15:26.260 have to make

01:15:26.740 sure that it

01:15:27.220 doesn't go

01:15:27.680 smoothly on

01:15:28.880 the day of,

01:15:29.940 and that's

01:15:30.660 it.

01:15:31.800 Now, you

01:15:32.420 remember those

01:15:32.940 machines that

01:15:33.800 had been

01:15:34.600 tested, and

01:15:35.820 yet it turned

01:15:36.440 out that they

01:15:36.940 were,

01:15:37.420 poorly calibrated

01:15:38.540 for the ink

01:15:39.900 that was on

01:15:40.420 the ballots?

01:15:43.320 Do you

01:15:43.900 think anybody

01:15:44.400 would be

01:15:44.800 smart enough

01:15:45.380 to know

01:15:45.840 that if

01:15:46.980 they tweaked

01:15:47.480 that calibration

01:15:48.320 ahead of

01:15:48.780 time, just

01:15:50.000 make it a

01:15:50.460 little bit

01:15:50.860 below the

01:15:51.420 level, that

01:15:52.440 it might

01:15:52.700 take hours

01:15:53.380 to figure

01:15:53.820 out what's

01:15:54.280 wrong and

01:15:55.300 correct it,

01:15:56.400 and in

01:15:56.820 those hours

01:15:57.420 a lot of

01:15:57.840 Republicans

01:15:58.280 would give

01:15:58.820 up and

01:15:59.180 leave the

01:15:59.520 line?

01:16:01.220 That would

01:16:01.820 be a pretty

01:16:02.580 straightforward

01:16:03.260 prediction,

01:16:04.020 wouldn't it?

01:16:04.600 If we

01:16:05.140 could just

01:16:05.500 make the

01:16:05.860 lines longer,

01:16:06.840 on election

01:16:08.040 day, that's

01:16:08.820 all we

01:16:09.060 need, because

01:16:10.540 people don't

01:16:11.160 have infinite

01:16:11.860 time.

01:16:12.820 They vote

01:16:13.240 during the

01:16:13.620 work day, and

01:16:14.180 some of them

01:16:14.540 just need to

01:16:15.200 say, fuck

01:16:15.580 it, I'm

01:16:15.820 going home.

01:16:17.140 So it

01:16:19.120 looks to

01:16:19.580 me, without

01:16:22.000 any proof of

01:16:23.120 this, right,

01:16:24.100 it looks to

01:16:24.760 me like the

01:16:25.980 inefficiency was

01:16:27.100 the feature, not

01:16:27.960 the accident.

01:16:29.740 And it's being

01:16:30.560 treated like a

01:16:31.320 feature, not an

01:16:32.020 accident, because

01:16:32.640 they're not trying

01:16:33.120 to fix it.

01:16:35.540 If you saw

01:16:36.300 some big move

01:16:37.220 from Maricopa

01:16:38.440 to say, my

01:16:39.020 God, we've

01:16:40.380 got to change

01:16:40.960 this system,

01:16:42.280 we've got to

01:16:43.260 make sure nothing

01:16:43.980 like this ever

01:16:44.740 happens, so

01:16:45.820 here's what we're

01:16:46.480 going to do to

01:16:46.980 fix all of

01:16:47.580 this.

01:16:48.320 No, no.

01:16:50.000 As far as I

01:16:50.800 know, they plan

01:16:51.400 to run the

01:16:51.880 next election in

01:16:52.920 the same way.

01:16:54.620 I'm just going

01:16:55.380 to guess, but

01:16:56.680 I'll bet you

01:16:57.100 the next election

01:16:57.900 has some long

01:16:58.800 lines and some

01:16:59.840 unexpected technical

01:17:01.260 problems that

01:17:02.600 don't look like

01:17:03.240 any rigged

01:17:03.800 election at

01:17:04.300 all.

01:17:04.580 It's just, hey,

01:17:05.940 it's technology.

01:17:07.680 Technology sometimes

01:17:08.820 is, you know, a

01:17:10.960 little bit tweaked

01:17:12.360 wrong.

01:17:13.340 No big deal.

01:17:14.080 It's sort of

01:17:14.420 normal.

01:17:15.280 You'd expect a

01:17:16.140 few hiccups in

01:17:17.900 exactly the right

01:17:18.740 place.

01:17:20.200 So we got the

01:17:21.340 most problems in

01:17:23.460 the place that

01:17:24.140 would actually

01:17:24.580 change the

01:17:25.260 election.

01:17:27.200 There were other

01:17:28.180 places that had

01:17:28.880 problems, too,

01:17:29.520 but that was

01:17:31.340 kind of a

01:17:31.820 coincidence,

01:17:32.380 wasn't it, that

01:17:33.320 the one place

01:17:34.520 that would

01:17:34.860 definitely change

01:17:36.120 things, that

01:17:37.580 place had little

01:17:38.420 problems, long

01:17:39.220 lines.

01:17:40.720 And as many

01:17:42.500 times as they

01:17:43.140 checked the

01:17:43.600 machines the

01:17:44.200 night before,

01:17:45.480 how weird that

01:17:46.340 they didn't work

01:17:46.940 the very next

01:17:47.580 day.

01:17:48.600 How weird.

01:17:50.160 Yeah.

01:17:52.180 I don't know.

01:17:53.260 Here's my take.

01:17:55.640 Here's my take

01:17:56.540 on the elections.

01:17:59.520 Guilty until

01:18:01.160 proven innocent.

01:18:03.100 Guilty until

01:18:04.100 proven innocent.

01:18:05.360 That's my

01:18:05.980 standard.

01:18:07.500 And to me, they

01:18:08.300 look guilty.

01:18:10.320 So you can, let's

01:18:12.840 see if I get

01:18:13.320 kicked off of

01:18:14.520 social media.

01:18:16.720 YouTube, and

01:18:18.580 whoever is

01:18:20.420 watching me on

01:18:21.000 YouTube and

01:18:21.540 decides whether to

01:18:22.420 monetize me,

01:18:24.100 it is my opinion

01:18:25.020 that the

01:18:26.140 credibility of the

01:18:27.160 last election, is

01:18:29.040 below the level in

01:18:30.220 which you should

01:18:30.760 accept it.

01:18:32.700 Now, I don't

01:18:34.220 have any specific

01:18:35.260 claim about a

01:18:36.240 specific bad

01:18:37.680 shenanigans.

01:18:38.760 I'm just saying

01:18:39.620 that the overall

01:18:40.500 situation with which

01:18:41.660 we've been presented

01:18:42.520 doesn't appear

01:18:44.260 designed to make us

01:18:46.440 believe it.

01:18:48.320 It doesn't seem

01:18:49.440 designed for us

01:18:51.580 to believe it.

01:18:52.800 It's designed for us

01:18:54.080 not to believe it,

01:18:55.140 which causes more

01:18:56.560 problems for

01:18:57.220 Republicans, right?

01:18:58.580 What's the worst

01:18:59.260 case scenario for

01:19:00.180 Republicans?

01:19:01.420 An election they

01:19:02.260 say they don't

01:19:03.180 believe.

01:19:04.440 That was the

01:19:05.180 trap.

01:19:06.240 It's the perfect

01:19:06.880 trap.

01:19:07.780 If we can trap

01:19:08.520 those Republicans

01:19:09.300 into doubting a

01:19:10.260 second election,

01:19:11.820 everybody's going to

01:19:12.560 think that they're

01:19:13.460 not good citizens.

01:19:17.540 So, YouTube, I

01:19:20.020 don't know who

01:19:20.660 did what.

01:19:21.300 I'm making no

01:19:21.900 specific allegations

01:19:23.780 of bad behavior.

01:19:25.480 I'm simply saying

01:19:26.440 that if you look

01:19:27.400 at the design

01:19:28.640 which is

01:19:29.120 intentional, the

01:19:30.640 intentional design

01:19:31.820 is to make it

01:19:34.360 less credible.

01:19:35.940 So, I accept

01:19:37.020 what I've been

01:19:37.500 told.

01:19:38.720 I've been given,

01:19:39.440 the officials have

01:19:40.200 given me a

01:19:40.900 non-credible election

01:19:42.400 by design,

01:19:43.960 intentionally, by

01:19:45.820 design, and so I

01:19:47.420 accept what they've

01:19:48.220 given me.

01:19:48.920 It's not credible.

01:19:49.680 So, I reject the

01:19:51.440 2022 election.

01:19:55.740 In my opinion, I

01:19:58.340 don't have a

01:19:58.800 specific allegation.

01:20:01.300 It was presented to

01:20:02.620 us in a way that we

01:20:04.540 are being told not to

01:20:05.740 believe it.

01:20:06.840 And so, I accept the

01:20:07.700 message.

01:20:09.160 It would be easy to

01:20:10.300 say, here's what we're

01:20:12.880 doing to make you feel

01:20:14.120 more comfortable with

01:20:15.060 the result.

01:20:17.020 But I don't see that.

01:20:18.240 If you had that, I'd

01:20:20.000 say, oh, you're

01:20:21.620 designing the system

01:20:22.600 to make me feel

01:20:23.880 comfortable with the

01:20:24.740 result.

01:20:25.060 I get that.

01:20:25.600 Now, I do feel more

01:20:26.820 comfortable.

01:20:27.840 But if you design it

01:20:29.020 in a way, the design

01:20:31.840 is very clearly to

01:20:33.180 make us less

01:20:33.840 comfortable with the

01:20:34.640 result.

01:20:35.820 Because they know

01:20:36.600 how to do it the

01:20:37.200 other way, right?

01:20:38.740 Do you think there's

01:20:39.420 any doubt among the

01:20:40.540 professionals how to

01:20:42.000 make the election

01:20:42.640 completely unquestionable?

01:20:45.560 Yeah, just paper

01:20:46.400 ballots, count them

01:20:47.320 the same day.

01:20:48.240 Have witnesses.

01:20:49.620 It's easy.

01:20:51.020 There's no question

01:20:51.960 about how to do it.

01:20:53.700 So it's a choice.

01:20:55.340 And it's a choice that

01:20:56.380 both sides appear to

01:20:57.360 be making.

01:20:58.880 So if both sides are

01:21:00.040 making the choice to

01:21:00.880 have non-credible

01:21:02.840 looking elections, you

01:21:04.960 as a consumer should

01:21:05.960 take the message and

01:21:07.140 say, oh, you're

01:21:08.260 presenting us a

01:21:08.940 non-credible election,

01:21:10.120 we'll accept it as a

01:21:11.380 non-credible election.

01:21:12.240 Now, having said that,

01:21:15.720 I agree with certifying

01:21:17.220 it.

01:21:19.200 I agree with

01:21:20.240 certifying it.

01:21:22.200 Same reason I agreed

01:21:23.420 with moving on when

01:21:24.840 Trump allegedly lost in

01:21:26.820 2020.

01:21:28.580 Because you do have to

01:21:29.680 move on.

01:21:31.180 You do have to move on.

01:21:33.300 And that's a separate

01:21:34.320 question from fixing the

01:21:36.320 problem.

01:21:37.000 You have to fix the

01:21:37.740 problem, but sometimes

01:21:39.120 you just have to move

01:21:39.940 on, too.

01:21:42.680 You can redo the

01:21:43.720 election, yeah.

01:21:45.040 No, but we would just

01:21:46.200 be redoing it with a

01:21:47.240 system that's not

01:21:47.980 credible.

01:21:49.880 But do you mind that

01:21:51.940 the vote was maybe

01:21:55.120 not as accurate as it

01:21:57.120 could have been, given

01:21:58.740 that some people may not

01:22:00.040 have participated?

01:22:02.760 Here's why I'm not

01:22:03.700 complaining as much as

01:22:04.700 I could.

01:22:06.060 It was the first thing

01:22:06.960 I said today.

01:22:07.580 I don't think the

01:22:09.040 vote is what matters.

01:22:11.760 I think it's censorship

01:22:13.080 determined the

01:22:14.700 narrative.

01:22:15.300 The narrative

01:22:15.780 determined the

01:22:16.940 opinions.

01:22:17.540 The opinions

01:22:18.000 determined the

01:22:18.760 vote.

01:22:20.020 And pretty much,

01:22:21.620 you know, 90% of how

01:22:23.220 we ended up where we

01:22:24.220 were is from the

01:22:25.760 censorship.

01:22:27.420 Not from anything

01:22:28.780 else.

01:22:29.820 So the vote was

01:22:31.000 important.

01:22:31.640 And it may have been

01:22:32.180 the last straw because

01:22:33.540 it was a close, close

01:22:34.920 election.

01:22:35.260 So it probably did

01:22:36.600 matter just because it

01:22:37.300 was close.

01:22:37.940 But 90% of it was just

01:22:39.460 that the censorship

01:22:40.500 determined what people

01:22:41.620 saw.

01:22:42.520 What people saw

01:22:43.340 determined their

01:22:43.940 opinions.

01:22:44.580 And then they voted on

01:22:45.360 their opinions.

01:22:46.480 So it wasn't actually a

01:22:48.080 inform the public and

01:22:50.480 then the public makes

01:22:51.440 opinions and votes for

01:22:53.100 their representatives.

01:22:54.140 Sort of the way a

01:22:55.020 republic should work.

01:22:56.600 Nothing like that

01:22:57.300 happened.

01:22:58.840 Nothing like that

01:22:59.520 happened.

01:23:00.520 The brainwashers

01:23:01.640 decided what we would

01:23:02.720 think and then we acted

01:23:04.320 on it.

01:23:04.620 That's all.

01:23:08.240 All right.

01:23:08.860 Do a redo.

01:23:10.100 Yeah, maybe we should

01:23:11.200 have some kind of a

01:23:12.560 standing redo system so

01:23:17.200 you can redo it

01:23:17.900 quickly.

01:23:18.760 Now here's what I'd

01:23:19.520 like to do.

01:23:20.540 I would love to see a

01:23:23.140 survey of how many

01:23:24.860 republicans got out of

01:23:26.240 line.

01:23:27.740 And then separately,

01:23:28.780 how many of them

01:23:29.460 didn't vote in the

01:23:30.600 normal way but maybe

01:23:32.140 had to put their ballot

01:23:33.040 in the special ballot

01:23:34.660 box that didn't have

01:23:36.380 a good chain of

01:23:37.100 custody.

01:23:38.140 So wouldn't you like

01:23:38.920 to know how many

01:23:40.560 republicans got out of

01:23:41.700 line?

01:23:44.540 Because it might be

01:23:45.280 none.

01:23:46.200 It might be none.

01:23:47.240 Because it could be the

01:23:48.020 republicans were just,

01:23:49.120 you know, screw it.

01:23:50.420 I'm here all day.

01:23:51.240 You're not going to make

01:23:51.820 me get out of line.

01:23:52.660 Because, you know,

01:23:53.080 republicans are pretty

01:23:53.940 much tough characters.

01:23:58.080 Which is exactly why I

01:23:59.440 like them.

01:23:59.780 The thing I like most

01:24:02.220 about conservatives is

01:24:04.940 that when they have a

01:24:05.760 principle, they're really

01:24:07.940 going to stick to it.

01:24:09.160 Like, they're really

01:24:09.840 sticky on principle.

01:24:11.160 And if the principle is

01:24:12.220 you're not going to

01:24:12.880 discourage me from

01:24:13.760 voting, maybe every

01:24:17.080 single republican in the

01:24:18.280 United States stayed in

01:24:19.280 line as long as it

01:24:20.860 took.

01:24:21.860 It's possible.

01:24:23.140 Because the

01:24:23.920 republicans are not like

01:24:25.000 regular people, right?

01:24:26.540 They're not.

01:24:27.900 They're very stubborn.

01:24:29.780 And they don't like to

01:24:31.160 get, they don't like to

01:24:31.980 get beaten, you know,

01:24:33.380 by a game.

01:24:34.660 You know, they're not

01:24:35.120 going to be, they don't

01:24:36.000 like to be beaten by a

01:24:36.960 magic trick.

01:24:42.640 All right.

01:24:47.240 Thought experiment.

01:24:51.820 Why can anyone do that

01:24:53.100 list of things to

01:24:53.920 succeed, but not anyone

01:24:55.180 can avoid overeating?

01:24:56.640 Oh.

01:24:57.820 Good question.

01:24:58.500 So I told you the

01:24:59.780 things that somebody

01:25:00.660 needs to succeed, and

01:25:02.840 why do I think that

01:25:03.660 somebody has, you know,

01:25:04.520 free will and they can

01:25:05.480 do that thing, when I

01:25:07.460 don't think that people

01:25:08.220 can stop overeating,

01:25:10.880 because they like to

01:25:11.520 eat.

01:25:12.280 And the thing is that

01:25:13.260 eating is an addiction.

01:25:15.360 And addictions are a

01:25:16.680 whole different deal.

01:25:18.100 Right?

01:25:18.860 So if you have an

01:25:19.960 addiction, you have to

01:25:21.100 be in addiction mode to

01:25:22.760 deal with that.

01:25:23.960 But what I was talking

01:25:24.820 about was sort of a

01:25:25.660 non-addiction.

01:25:26.700 You're just a kid and

01:25:27.660 you're trying to figure

01:25:28.260 out your way in the

01:25:29.120 world.

01:25:29.420 There's no addiction

01:25:30.020 involved.

01:25:30.940 So if there's no

01:25:31.520 addiction involved, you

01:25:33.220 can certainly brainwash

01:25:35.300 kids in the direction you

01:25:36.380 want.

01:25:39.520 Make a clip of my mom's

01:25:41.260 useful advice.

01:25:43.540 Hmm.

01:25:45.540 Maybe so.

01:25:47.200 Yeah, maybe so.

01:25:48.560 The trouble is that my

01:25:49.400 mom had that be the best

01:25:50.680 at one thing advice,

01:25:52.160 which is the opposite of

01:25:54.580 what I ended up doing

01:25:55.780 to good effect.

01:25:59.480 All right.

01:26:01.940 You need a micro lesson

01:26:03.060 on hoarding.

01:26:04.260 Oh.

01:26:05.520 Yeah, maybe I'll do that.

01:26:06.840 Micro lesson on hoarding.

01:26:08.580 You want to stop hoarding,

01:26:09.920 I assume.

01:26:10.620 You don't want a micro lesson

01:26:11.600 on how to hoard more.

01:26:14.100 Yeah, maybe so.

01:26:15.720 That's a good reason.

01:26:16.400 I can reframe that, I think.

01:26:18.420 Let's talk about China.

01:26:21.540 Let's talk about China.

01:26:24.360 You know, there's an

01:26:25.240 interesting thing when I see

01:26:26.700 the aerial views of the

01:26:29.160 protests.

01:26:30.400 So the things that are

01:26:31.300 different, number one,

01:26:33.560 it's not that unusual to

01:26:34.680 have protests in China.

01:26:36.320 What's unusual is that

01:26:37.740 they're countrywide.

01:26:40.100 That's unusual.

01:26:41.300 And they may be bigger,

01:26:43.080 you know, in each individual

01:26:44.480 place than we've seen

01:26:45.820 before.

01:26:46.120 But here's the thing

01:26:49.640 that I'm really taken by

01:26:52.480 when I look at the crowds.

01:26:54.520 So you'll see a big crowd

01:26:55.620 from above, and you'll see

01:26:56.660 the, let's say, the riot

01:26:59.660 police, I guess.

01:27:01.500 They tend to be dressed in

01:27:02.940 all white or police uniforms.

01:27:05.700 And you can see how many

01:27:06.720 police there are, and then

01:27:08.560 you can see the size of the

01:27:10.060 public crowd.

01:27:12.540 And it looks to me like the

01:27:14.220 crowd is more powerful than

01:27:16.100 the law enforcement.

01:27:18.880 Like a lot.

01:27:21.260 And I don't think that the

01:27:23.040 law enforcement wants to open

01:27:24.300 fire and start massacring

01:27:26.760 people, because that, then the

01:27:28.340 public goes to the next level

01:27:29.640 as well.

01:27:30.620 And I'm watching that, and I'm

01:27:31.900 thinking, it looks like the

01:27:34.640 Indian elephant trainer

01:27:36.880 situation is what it looks like.

01:27:39.100 Let me explain that.

01:27:40.940 I use this example a lot.

01:27:42.620 If you're an elephant trainer,

01:27:45.080 how do you get this gigantic

01:27:46.340 mammal that could crush you,

01:27:48.440 if it wants to, to follow your

01:27:50.560 orders?

01:27:51.160 How do you make an elephant

01:27:52.300 afraid of you?

01:27:54.000 Like, I always wonder, like,

01:27:55.140 why does the elephant do anything

01:27:56.600 for this little person?

01:27:58.240 Like, it makes sense why your dog

01:28:00.940 does what you want, because you're

01:28:02.140 bigger than your dog, usually.

01:28:04.180 Right?

01:28:04.420 You feed it.

01:28:05.520 But it seems like the elephant

01:28:06.500 would just want to crush you if

01:28:08.300 you beat it with a stick.

01:28:10.660 But the way they do it is they

01:28:12.720 hurt the elephant when it's a

01:28:14.820 baby.

01:28:16.120 So when the elephant is a baby,

01:28:17.680 and it doesn't know how to fight

01:28:18.620 back or anything, the elephant

01:28:20.120 trainer, you know, hits it until

01:28:21.960 the elephant is afraid of the

01:28:23.640 human.

01:28:24.380 And then the human never becomes

01:28:25.900 less afraid of the human.

01:28:27.380 The elephant never does.

01:28:28.500 So the elephant becomes a, you

01:28:30.420 know, big monster, but it still

01:28:32.260 thinks that little human can beat

01:28:33.800 it up.

01:28:34.980 So that never changed.

01:28:36.820 And I feel like the Chinese

01:28:38.840 public is the elephant.

01:28:42.760 Because I watch the number of

01:28:44.680 people there are protesting, and

01:28:47.460 it's a far bigger force than the

01:28:49.620 number trying to stop them.

01:28:51.220 It's not even close.

01:28:53.000 Now, yes, if that force wanted to

01:28:55.340 use firearms, then it's not a fair

01:28:58.660 fight.

01:28:59.460 But if they use the firearms, then

01:29:02.120 the crowd gets bigger, too.

01:29:04.760 Right?

01:29:05.520 So here's what I don't think the

01:29:07.540 Chinese public knows.

01:29:09.960 They have complete control

01:29:11.460 already.

01:29:14.600 The Chinese public has complete

01:29:16.520 control, and they don't know it.

01:29:20.060 Because if you saw the size of the

01:29:22.040 crowd, they just have to rush the

01:29:24.720 other people.

01:29:25.880 They just have to say, all right,

01:29:27.220 we're going to take you down and

01:29:29.560 just use numbers and just take them

01:29:31.220 out.

01:29:32.720 And I feel like the public, either

01:29:35.320 the public doesn't want to

01:29:36.420 escalate, or they think they don't

01:29:38.720 have the power like the elephant that

01:29:41.020 was abused as a baby.

01:29:42.740 Because they've been abused since

01:29:44.080 birth to do what they're told.

01:29:46.700 And even as rebellious as they are now,

01:29:49.020 which is impressive to watch, I feel

01:29:51.400 like they still don't know how much

01:29:52.680 power they have.

01:29:53.240 I look at it from above, and I say,

01:29:56.220 this is a five-minute problem.

01:29:59.500 People would die, but it's a five-minute

01:30:02.220 problem.

01:30:03.060 Every one of those law enforcement

01:30:05.160 people could be grabbed by a person in

01:30:07.840 the crowd, brought down five minutes.

01:30:12.440 In five minutes, they would own the

01:30:13.700 city.

01:30:14.900 But they're not doing it.

01:30:16.720 Now, here's the question.

01:30:19.540 What would have happened in America?

01:30:21.220 Forget about guns for a second.

01:30:22.680 Just imagine the protesters are unarmed

01:30:26.280 in America.

01:30:27.920 Do you think America would not have

01:30:30.020 already taken down the law enforcement?

01:30:33.680 I think Americans would have already

01:30:35.260 taken them down.

01:30:36.980 Because we're not trained like the

01:30:38.820 elephant.

01:30:40.040 We're trained to think we are in

01:30:42.460 control.

01:30:44.380 Maybe it's one of the things that

01:30:45.940 makes Americans such assholes.

01:30:48.020 One of the reasons we're assholes is

01:30:49.900 we grow up thinking we're in

01:30:51.080 control, right?

01:30:53.260 We think we have all kinds of power,

01:30:55.040 even if we don't.

01:30:56.600 So if you had a crowd of Americans who

01:30:59.740 were that pissed off, and the number of

01:31:02.520 people who were preventing them from

01:31:04.080 going or doing whatever they were, was

01:31:06.020 that small, this would be so over.

01:31:09.740 The only thing that's keeping China

01:31:11.820 intact is this psychological thing that

01:31:15.480 keeps the citizens thinking they're

01:31:17.740 weaker than the government, and they

01:31:19.160 are not.

01:31:20.120 Not even close.

01:31:21.600 They are the elephant, and they're

01:31:24.000 just, they don't know they can stomp on

01:31:26.460 the government anytime they want.

01:31:29.840 That's what it looks like.

01:31:32.080 So what this means is, no, I did not

01:31:35.760 forget the Chinese military.

01:31:37.300 I did not.

01:31:37.920 Because I'm calculating here that if

01:31:42.040 China was sent in the military, and they

01:31:44.840 started killing massive people, which

01:31:46.700 they'd have to do, that the citizens would

01:31:49.560 rise up to an even higher level.

01:31:51.820 Now, in America, that's what would

01:31:53.040 happen.

01:31:54.060 In America, if there were more force brought

01:31:56.440 against the crowd, the crowd would increase

01:31:59.360 their own force, and they would be armed

01:32:01.740 after that point.

01:32:02.620 Now, China can't arm itself, so they've got a

01:32:06.120 different situation.

01:32:07.220 But they could still take out a small

01:32:09.300 force.

01:32:10.600 Now, my understanding is that the Chinese

01:32:12.280 military is actually smaller than the local

01:32:16.240 community enforcement, because they need lots

01:32:19.180 of local community enforcement relative to how

01:32:22.160 many they need in the military.

01:32:23.140 So, it is possible that if the psychology of the

01:32:30.820 Chinese people changes, and it could.

01:32:34.180 You could imagine some small event that just

01:32:36.840 changes their psychology.

01:32:38.440 The moment they say, we have decided versus we

01:32:44.120 want, it's all over.

01:32:48.660 The Chinese people have not decided.

01:32:51.460 They have not.

01:32:52.020 They're expressing a desire.

01:32:55.340 They're expressing a preference.

01:32:58.580 A very strong preference.

01:33:00.460 But if the Chinese people decide, it's a five-minute

01:33:03.940 problem.

01:33:05.100 It's five minutes.

01:33:07.280 They will just destroy whoever is stopping them,

01:33:11.680 and they will just do what they need to do.

01:33:13.420 They'll take care of business.

01:33:15.040 So, there's a very big possibility that China is

01:33:18.860 teetering on a full revolution, and nothing physical

01:33:25.340 is stopping it from happening.

01:33:27.140 There's no physical thing.

01:33:29.240 Just that little bit of mental switch.

01:33:33.740 And if that switches, all bets are off.

01:33:36.700 Now, I would bet against that happening.

01:33:39.420 I would bet in favor of the Chinese government suppressing

01:33:42.560 them.

01:33:43.260 It goes back to normal.

01:33:44.700 And the reason is, I think they're so well trained.

01:33:49.240 I think that the conditioning is so deep that they

01:33:52.280 simply will never know their own power, and they won't

01:33:55.600 express it.

01:33:56.140 Now, do Iran.

01:34:00.760 Iran is different than any situation I'm aware of, because

01:34:05.980 the women seem to be taking a lead.

01:34:09.320 Now, maybe I don't have that right, but if there's anybody who

01:34:12.780 has any Iranian connections, can you do me a fact check?

01:34:16.620 Does it still look like the women are taking the lead, and the

01:34:19.920 men are helping?

01:34:22.360 Does it look like that?

01:34:23.460 See, once that happens, then we're in unpredictable territory.

01:34:33.440 Because the male-female relationship in Iran is something

01:34:37.140 we can't fully understand.

01:34:40.000 And we don't really know how much power women have in Iran.

01:34:44.420 If you listen to anybody who was born there, they'll tell you

01:34:47.400 some version of this.

01:34:49.240 Oh, yeah, the men are totally in control.

01:34:51.140 The men have all the power.

01:34:52.440 Except at home.

01:34:55.920 Within the house, the matriarch has an unusual amount of power.

01:35:02.400 But, you know, outside, and if anybody's looking, the men have

01:35:05.120 all the power.

01:35:06.120 Now, I don't know how much of that's true.

01:35:08.640 That's just sort of a thing you hear.

01:35:10.420 But if they really do control the house, who knows?

01:35:14.760 Who knows?

01:35:17.100 Anything's possible.

01:35:20.240 And if Iran goes ahead and does a mass hanging, I think all bets are off.

01:35:28.940 Apparently, they're going to, or maybe they already have, a public hanging of one of the

01:35:33.560 leaders.

01:35:33.880 And that is like a bad, bad play for Iran.

01:35:40.160 Doing that in public seems, in 2022, seems like the dumbest thing the leadership could

01:35:45.640 do.

01:35:47.660 To me, it looks like they'd just be begging for their own demise.

01:35:52.860 All right.

01:35:53.420 Did I miss any stories?

01:35:54.460 Is there anything that I should have talked about that I didn't?

01:36:01.600 Would you sell your Apple stock if they banned Twitter?

01:36:04.300 Yes.

01:36:05.200 Yes, I would.

01:36:05.780 If Apple bans Twitter, I'm selling my Apple stock immediately.

01:36:14.120 And not just because of politics, but because I think Musk might take them down.

01:36:22.220 I think he might take them down.

01:36:24.100 If Apple tries to destroy his $44 billion investment, he's not going to leave any weapon

01:36:32.160 unused.

01:36:33.060 That is full war.

01:36:36.660 Do you think Apple wants a full war against Elon Musk?

01:36:39.820 Because that's not fucking around, right?

01:36:42.200 If they take out his $44 billion investment and what he thinks is the only hope for free

01:36:47.680 speech, there will be no weapon that he won't use to fix that situation.

01:36:54.400 And you've never seen Elon unrestrained.

01:36:58.900 I don't even know what that looks like.

01:37:00.960 There's a David Sachs tweet.

01:37:04.100 All right.

01:37:05.460 There's a David Sachs tweet, and that is interesting enough that I'm going to look at it before

01:37:10.100 we go here.

01:37:10.800 Let's find that.

01:37:12.340 Because if you don't know, there are some people whose opinions are just a little more,

01:37:16.640 let's say, a little more persuasive than others.

01:37:19.940 Let's see.

01:37:21.480 Let's see.

01:37:21.640 David Sachs.

01:37:24.720 Let's see what he said.

01:37:28.040 Oh, there we go.

01:37:34.960 You mean the 23 minutes ago?

01:37:36.840 It was 23 minutes ago.

01:37:38.860 David Sachs tweeted, as long as tech, MAGA, Microsoft, Apple, Google, and Amazon.

01:37:46.320 MAGA.

01:37:47.820 M-A-G-A.

01:37:49.760 Microsoft, Apple, Google, and Amazon.

01:37:52.880 Oh, my God.

01:37:53.700 That's good.

01:37:55.220 Wow.

01:37:55.540 There we go.

01:38:08.080 There we go.

01:38:08.120 And then earlier, 42 minutes ago, David Sachs says, with the possible exception of Microsoft

01:38:16.420 in the late 90s, there's never been a tech monopoly as powerful as Apple.

01:38:21.400 Its power is so feared that few applications companies will dare to criticize Apple publicly,

01:38:25.980 even though almost all privately voiced similar concerns as Elon Musk.

01:38:31.500 Oh, shit.

01:38:32.500 Glenn Greenwald, here David Sachs retweets him, Glenn Greenwald said, there are few things

01:38:40.300 more revealing of an authoritarian mindset than wanting Google and Apple to use their monopoly

01:38:45.880 power to act as internet overlords, dictating who can and can't be heard.

01:38:52.180 Yet that's our situation, and so many seem grateful.

01:38:58.980 Wow.

01:39:02.500 Here's what I think.

01:39:05.180 Tim Scott is not going to pick a fight with some of the most powerful people in Silicon

01:39:11.620 Valley.

01:39:14.480 David Sachs is wonderfully public with both his influence and his opinions.

01:39:23.320 I can tell you for sure that there are powerful people in Silicon Valley who are less public who

01:39:30.280 who would go after Apple pretty hard for this.

01:39:32.840 If Apple tried to take down Twitter, there would be major powers in Silicon Valley who

01:39:41.720 would go after Apple pretty fucking hard.

01:39:44.380 And I would be joining that team immediately.

01:39:48.100 So I think Tim Cook is connected enough and he can read the room well enough to know that this

01:39:58.240 would not be a fight with just their users.

01:40:01.260 You know, this wouldn't be just a public relations problem.

01:40:04.780 This would be a existential threat to Apple.

01:40:09.220 There are people big enough who would just want to wipe them off the map and probably had the power

01:40:14.020 to do it.

01:40:16.480 So my prediction is that Apple will back down.

01:40:21.120 If it was real.

01:40:22.020 I don't know how real it was that Apple was really considering bumping them.

01:40:27.260 I think probably the truth.

01:40:30.380 Probably Apple just did a warning shot across the bow because Apple wants to establish that

01:40:36.680 it's the good person and they're doing the right things.

01:40:39.380 So I think Apple is just positioning so that people will say, oh, Apple's the good one.

01:40:45.080 They said, don't go too far with your, you know, your lack of censorship or we'll have

01:40:49.480 to ban you.

01:40:50.220 So I think it's just a warning shot, which actually is no problem at all.

01:40:55.960 I think everybody should do warning shots if there's something to warn about.

01:41:01.140 So I don't mind a warning shot.

01:41:09.000 Never go to war with a man who owns a rocket company.

01:41:13.460 Yeah.

01:41:14.080 Never go to war with somebody who literally owns a spaceship.

01:41:21.140 That's good advice.

01:41:22.660 Never start a fight with somebody who owns a spaceship.

01:41:26.980 I might tweet that.

01:41:28.120 Maybe one of you could tweet it.

01:41:33.860 All right.

01:41:34.400 That's all I got for today.

01:41:36.460 Did I miss any big stuff?

01:41:41.960 I think I got it all.

01:41:43.600 All right.

01:41:45.840 YouTube and Rumble and everybody else.

01:41:50.900 I'll say goodbye to you, but I'll talk to locals for a few minutes because they're special

01:41:56.100 people.

01:41:56.800 Bye for now.

01:41:58.120 Bye.

01:42:03.780 Bye.

01:42:08.500 Bye.

01:42:20.920 Bye.

01:42:21.520 Bye.

01:42:21.700 Bye.

01:42:21.900 Bye.
