Transcript

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the Highlight of Civilization.
00:00:08.140 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, the finest thing that's ever happened to you.
00:00:11.800 And would you like to take your experience into levels that only ayahuasca has ever experienced?
00:00:19.200 Yes, you would. And all you need is a cupper mugger, a glass of tanker, a chalice or a stein,
00:00:23.300 a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind, fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:28.000 I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day,
00:00:34.380 the thing that makes everything better. It's called the Simultaneous Sip.
00:00:40.860 And it happens now. Go.
00:00:47.160 Yeah, yeah. Everything looks better.
00:00:52.440 Now, before I turn off my other monitor that is lighting me poorly,
00:00:56.700 just before I came on, I noticed that there's a company that uses AI
00:01:02.400 to pull the best parts of your podcast out of your video,
00:01:08.580 and it automatically makes a clip that you can share on social media.
00:01:15.340 Does that blow your mind?
00:01:17.520 So in theory, I can run this program against this podcast.
00:01:21.580 Somehow it can look, maybe on YouTube or something,
00:01:25.180 somehow it can tell where people care the most or they're commenting the most,
00:01:29.440 and that it assumes that must be the good part.
00:01:32.520 And then it'll pick that good part out, put subtitles on it.
00:01:36.360 Like, it's just a complete...
00:01:38.080 Yeah, it's called...
00:01:39.280 You are close.
00:01:41.340 It's called video...
00:01:43.340 I'll spell it here, dot-A-I.
00:01:46.100 V-I-D-Y-O dot-A-I.
00:01:50.660 And I'm not recommending it.
00:01:52.180 I only just saw an ad for it.
00:01:53.920 That's all I've seen.
00:01:55.300 But that's pretty wild, isn't it?
00:01:57.820 You know, I didn't want to do a bunch of clips
00:02:00.260 because they're kind of time-consuming.
00:02:02.240 But if I can do them automatically, kind of cool.
00:02:04.640 Well, good news.
00:02:07.280 WNBA player Brittany Greiner was released from a Russian penal colony
00:02:11.980 in exchange for a Russian arms dealer.
00:02:16.360 And I think Russia also got a first draft pick.
00:02:22.640 So not only did Russia get their arms dealer back,
00:02:26.760 but they get the first-round pick for the next arms dealer.
00:02:30.280 So the next arms dealer draft, first pick.
00:02:35.500 So that should be good for their performance in the coming wars.
00:02:43.380 I'm waiting for this to happen,
00:02:45.120 but it doesn't seem to have happened yet.
00:02:47.600 Is there going to be a point where Black America
00:02:49.840 turns Brittany Greiner into a hero?
00:02:53.640 Has that happened?
00:02:56.440 Is Brittany Greiner seen as a hero to Black Americans?
00:03:01.280 Because, you know, there's sort of a trend that's suboptimal.
00:03:06.480 And the trend is,
00:03:08.600 can we please have some role models who did not just break a law?
00:03:13.580 Now, I don't think she should have been in a penal colony.
00:03:16.920 You know, what happened to her was obviously a tragedy
00:03:19.220 and completely unfair.
00:03:22.520 But we've got to be careful.
00:03:26.380 Let's maybe elevate heroes who have not recently broken any laws.
00:03:30.880 That would be cool.
00:03:32.480 That would be cool.
00:03:34.200 Okay.
00:03:36.280 I think I said this before,
00:03:37.940 but sometimes when I like things,
00:03:40.360 I just say them twice.
00:03:41.500 I keep thinking back about the meltdown of the crypto exchange FTX
00:03:49.940 and how many people, celebrities and rich people,
00:03:54.240 had believed that they were real before they melted down.
00:03:56.760 And one of them was Kevin O'Leary,
00:03:59.580 who was famous for being on Shark Tank.
00:04:02.080 And I swear to God,
00:04:03.500 just before this FTX thing melted down,
00:04:06.720 I was looking at Kevin O'Leary stuff on social media
00:04:10.460 because he's very interesting.
00:04:12.280 And I was thinking to myself,
00:04:15.440 I was actually feeling a little bit jealous.
00:04:19.540 And the jealousy specifically was,
00:04:22.500 how does this one guy keep making all the right choices,
00:04:26.900 like investments?
00:04:28.040 Like, what does he know that I don't know?
00:04:32.440 Right?
00:04:32.620 Is there something, some extra facility?
00:04:36.360 Does he have an extra speed?
00:04:37.980 Just something he can do that I can't do?
00:04:40.080 But knowing that he lost millions of dollars
00:04:43.720 and was even a paid spokesperson for the FTX thing,
00:04:49.240 I really feel like I would not have fallen for that.
00:04:53.420 Like, I don't know.
00:04:55.120 You know, if somebody offered me to be a spokesperson,
00:04:57.800 I don't know.
00:04:58.620 Maybe I would have said yes if it was a big paycheck or something.
00:05:01.560 But I'm feeling a little superior.
00:05:04.460 Now, I'm not saying for sure
00:05:05.620 that I could have outperformed Kevin O'Leary
00:05:09.140 on this investment.
00:05:10.740 I don't know that.
00:05:12.520 But am I wrong that it feels good
00:05:15.400 when people who look like they're, you know,
00:05:19.040 almost godlike in their abilities
00:05:20.720 do something as ordinary as that?
00:05:23.800 Like, that's just an ordinary mistake.
00:05:26.600 It's very...
00:05:27.780 I honestly find it motivating
00:05:31.160 in a weird way.
00:05:32.700 The reason I found it motivating
00:05:34.740 is to know that no matter what level you are successful,
00:05:40.000 you're still ordinary.
00:05:41.780 You're just still an ordinary person
00:05:43.180 who can make ordinary mistakes.
00:05:45.700 So to me, it makes success seem more approachable.
00:05:49.460 I've said the same thing about people
00:05:50.960 who meet famous people.
00:05:51.960 There are two of my co-workers
00:05:56.020 who were in cubicles next to me
00:05:59.400 when I got famous doing Dilbert,
00:06:03.480 and I was a published author at the time.
00:06:06.680 And so my co-workers got to see me go from,
00:06:09.240 you know, guy in a cubicle
00:06:10.440 who was doing no better than they were
00:06:12.580 to something that looked like more successful.
00:06:15.500 Soon after, two of the people
00:06:18.900 who were, you know,
00:06:20.180 actually adjacent cubicles at one point
00:06:22.320 also wrote and published their own books.
00:06:25.760 Now, I'm positive
00:06:27.040 that they took that challenge on,
00:06:30.860 both of them.
00:06:31.340 They were both successful
00:06:32.120 because they saw that I'm an ordinary person
00:06:34.760 and I did it.
00:06:36.560 And I think just hanging around me
00:06:38.640 and saying, okay, he's not really special.
00:06:41.340 If he can write a book,
00:06:43.540 I could probably write a book too.
00:06:45.640 And so they wrote books
00:06:46.700 and they both got published
00:06:47.900 and they both got paid.
00:06:50.060 So it was absolutely true.
00:06:52.280 They said, there's nothing that special about you, Scott.
00:06:55.580 I can do that too.
00:06:57.260 And then they actually did it.
00:06:59.880 They literally just did it.
00:07:02.380 They just did what I did and it worked.
00:07:04.660 Now, I'm positive that having that kind of association
00:07:07.700 with somebody you think is special,
00:07:10.780 but then you find out how ordinary they are,
00:07:13.720 I'm positive that that helps you succeed.
00:07:16.920 I'm positive.
00:07:18.460 Because how could you not think,
00:07:20.280 well, maybe I could do it too.
00:07:22.080 This person's looking pretty ordinary.
00:07:25.140 All right.
00:07:27.720 Inflation might be coming down,
00:07:29.360 according to Constance Hunter.
00:07:32.160 On a tweet,
00:07:33.720 apparently used car prices are falling fairly rapidly.
00:07:36.880 I assume that has to do with everything to do
00:07:39.400 with the supply chain.
00:07:41.600 And because there have been waves of layoffs,
00:07:45.540 we expect that maybe salaries will not be increasing
00:07:49.280 as much as before.
00:07:51.460 Gas is starting to come down.
00:07:54.100 So if we get automobiles,
00:07:58.460 we're only talking used ones,
00:08:00.120 but probably applies to new ones.
00:08:02.420 If we can get automobiles, gas,
00:08:05.480 and paychecks not increasing quickly,
00:08:10.260 you'd be in much better shape.
00:08:13.620 But I think there's something bigger happening.
00:08:16.060 In my opinion,
00:08:17.480 one of the things that makes America,
00:08:19.740 at least so far, unbeatable,
00:08:21.480 is that we have self-correcting systems
00:08:24.540 that self-correct.
00:08:27.060 I'm not sure that other systems are as flexible
00:08:30.080 to let their systems self-heal.
00:08:32.860 So let me give you an example.
00:08:34.520 As I just said,
00:08:36.480 inflation seems to be correcting.
00:08:39.280 Our economic system,
00:08:42.480 our transportation system for goods,
00:08:44.420 was broken,
00:08:46.560 but that breaking revealed all of its weaknesses,
00:08:49.940 and now I think it's being re-engineered
00:08:51.940 from the ground up.
00:08:53.560 Software, AI,
00:08:55.000 all kinds of different things are happening.
00:08:57.020 So our delivery systems are being re-engineered.
00:09:00.580 Our manufacturing is being completely revamped.
00:09:03.940 We're moving it out of China.
00:09:06.140 We're adding 3D printers and stuff.
00:09:08.680 Completely a self-healing system.
00:09:10.920 And there's a lot of other stuff.
00:09:15.560 Like Twitter is healing at the moment,
00:09:18.360 wouldn't you say?
00:09:20.480 I would say that our election systems are poor,
00:09:24.200 but a lot of work has been done
00:09:26.840 in the last few years
00:09:28.560 to try to shore things up
00:09:30.780 and get more witnesses and stuff like that.
00:09:32.940 So I don't think our election system
00:09:35.480 is where it needs to be,
00:09:36.740 but it's definitely in the process of self-correcting.
00:09:39.860 It's in the process.
00:09:41.240 I think our nuclear energy industry
00:09:44.480 is self-corrected.
00:09:46.080 It went from a negative thing
00:09:48.080 to probably the only thing that'll save us.
00:09:50.720 I see ESG that got a little wild,
00:09:53.800 but it looks like it's being pulled back.
00:09:55.920 ESG is self-correcting.
00:09:57.680 And there are probably a number of other things
00:10:03.360 you could mention.
00:10:05.140 Same kind of thing.
00:10:06.580 Now, what do you think of that hypothesis?
00:10:11.660 Do you think that China can self-correct
00:10:15.020 as quickly as the United States can?
00:10:17.880 Like all of our systems have that quality
00:10:19.880 that we're willing to shoot our own babies.
00:10:23.700 I think that might be uniquely American.
00:10:26.680 That we're willing to execute our own babies
00:10:30.180 to build a better baby.
00:10:31.940 And we'll do it tomorrow.
00:10:33.100 Like we're not going to hesitate.
00:10:35.140 So I feel like that's almost
00:10:36.700 a permanent advantage we have.
00:10:39.640 Now, I would also say that
00:10:41.240 wherever you thought America was
00:10:43.860 relative to all the other countries
00:10:45.660 prior to the pandemic,
00:10:47.960 I believe that we've pulled away.
00:10:51.500 Would you agree with that?
00:10:53.060 Whatever you think of America at the moment,
00:10:55.440 I believe we pulled away
00:10:57.240 from all the other countries.
00:10:58.520 I think we're by far
00:10:59.440 the strongest country now.
00:11:01.200 I think China and Russia
00:11:03.000 are kind of struggling a little bit.
00:11:07.020 So I'm not saying we're perfect.
00:11:09.420 We still certainly have our problems.
00:11:11.660 But I feel like we did pull away.
00:11:14.700 And that being the best of the group
00:11:17.340 has its advantages.
00:11:18.320 We might see some really long-term advantages
00:11:21.440 coming out of, you know,
00:11:23.380 the tragedy of the pandemic.
00:11:30.840 That's what I think.
00:11:33.120 So tech companies are downsizing.
00:11:35.560 As you know, a lot of big companies
00:11:36.640 announced big layoffs.
00:11:38.140 And I saw in Machiavelli's
00:11:41.460 Underbelly account
00:11:42.260 that apparently California tech companies
00:11:45.360 are hiring consultants
00:11:49.740 from the outside
00:11:51.020 to do DEI adverse impact analysis.
00:11:55.360 In other words,
00:11:56.520 to make sure that when they do their layoffs,
00:11:58.900 that it is not hurting
00:11:59.960 one demographic group unfairly.
00:12:04.000 You know, that nobody's being targeted.
00:12:05.280 So that'll work pretty well, right?
00:12:11.100 What could go wrong?
00:12:13.620 Do you see any way
00:12:14.940 that that could cause
00:12:16.200 any unintended side effects
00:12:20.020 of any kind?
00:12:22.340 Now, correct me if I'm wrong.
00:12:23.960 They have painted themselves
00:12:25.000 in a corner
00:12:25.580 in which they have two choices.
00:12:28.760 And tell me if I'm wrong.
00:12:30.920 Right?
00:12:31.260 Because I might be wrong.
00:12:33.200 Maybe there's some other choice.
00:12:35.280 They either
00:12:36.060 fire people, you know,
00:12:39.280 based on business needs,
00:12:42.320 which almost certainly,
00:12:43.780 almost certainly
00:12:44.620 would look unfair to somebody.
00:12:47.020 Would you agree?
00:12:48.040 I don't know who
00:12:48.820 it would look unfair to exactly.
00:12:50.960 But if you just did it
00:12:51.920 based on what the business needs,
00:12:54.340 it's going to be
00:12:54.920 a semi-random process
00:12:56.600 that surely will affect
00:12:58.320 some people more than others
00:12:59.640 with no intention to do that.
00:13:01.820 Wouldn't you agree?
00:13:02.280 So if they ignore
00:13:04.660 the diversity thing,
00:13:05.900 they're going to create
00:13:06.520 a problem,
00:13:07.800 and it'll come back
00:13:08.640 and bite them in the ass.
00:13:09.740 But suppose they go
00:13:10.540 the other way
00:13:11.040 and they follow
00:13:11.580 the consultant's,
00:13:13.200 the consultant recommendations
00:13:15.940 of how to fire people
00:13:17.840 in a, let's say,
00:13:19.580 a demographically fair way
00:13:21.800 according to them.
00:13:23.720 Doesn't that guarantee
00:13:24.880 they have to fire
00:13:25.720 their best employees?
00:13:26.620 I'm not wrong about that, right?
00:13:30.640 Have they not created a system,
00:13:33.000 the tech companies themselves,
00:13:34.700 have they not created
00:13:35.660 their own system
00:13:36.620 that guarantees
00:13:37.820 that the very next thing
00:13:39.000 they have to do
00:13:39.640 is fire their better employees
00:13:41.680 to make sure
00:13:42.840 that you've got some equality?
00:13:44.740 Now, when I say better,
00:13:45.800 that's not a racial comment.
00:13:48.760 Let me clarify.
00:13:50.580 For historical reasons
00:13:52.160 which we could debate,
00:13:53.240 there are fewer minorities in tech.
00:13:57.880 So I'm only making
00:13:58.960 a math argument.
00:13:59.960 I'm not talking about
00:14:00.620 the quality of any people.
00:14:02.440 I'm not talking about
00:14:03.440 anybody's potential.
00:14:05.320 I'm not talking about
00:14:05.960 anybody's genetic makeup.
00:14:08.020 It's nothing about that.
00:14:09.220 It's just math.
00:14:10.660 And the math is
00:14:11.540 that if you need to get rid
00:14:13.700 of a lot of people,
00:14:15.560 you're probably going to have
00:14:16.820 to start getting rid
00:14:18.340 of some qualified people
00:14:19.540 to make sure
00:14:21.240 your diversity works out.
00:14:23.240 Because you can't really
00:14:24.700 have two top priorities.
00:14:27.620 Right?
00:14:28.220 You could have a top priority
00:14:29.600 to have good profits
00:14:32.500 or you could have
00:14:33.720 a top priority
00:14:34.520 to make sure
00:14:35.100 your diversity
00:14:36.320 is managed
00:14:37.060 in a socially correct way.
00:14:39.880 But you can't do both.
00:14:41.440 You can't do both.
00:14:42.840 So that's the choice
00:14:44.280 they'll have to make.
00:14:45.540 Now, I suppose
00:14:46.160 they're just covering
00:14:46.820 their butts
00:14:47.340 by having an outside service
00:14:48.800 bless whatever
00:14:50.040 they decide to do
00:14:51.080 if that's all they're doing.
00:14:53.020 Well, that makes sense.
00:14:59.660 Notice that he doesn't
00:15:00.840 dare mention IQ.
00:15:01.880 I'm going to take
00:15:02.280 this challenge.
00:15:03.900 So over on the
00:15:04.640 locals' platform,
00:15:06.900 this is a criticism
00:15:08.200 or a comment, anyway.
00:15:09.980 Scott's trying to couch this
00:15:11.220 and language other
00:15:12.120 than qualifications.
00:15:13.400 Notice that.
00:15:14.420 He doesn't dare mention IQ
00:15:16.020 or we'd have to explain
00:15:17.920 why the Asians
00:15:18.620 have the most white privilege.
00:15:22.060 Does IQ have anything
00:15:23.660 to do with this topic?
00:15:26.940 It does not.
00:15:29.000 It does not.
00:15:30.820 No.
00:15:31.540 You think it does,
00:15:32.280 but it doesn't.
00:15:33.040 Because the people
00:15:33.740 have already been hired.
00:15:36.660 Their IQs,
00:15:38.200 you could argue,
00:15:39.200 made a difference before.
00:15:41.140 You could argue
00:15:42.040 that it had something
00:15:42.700 to do with how they
00:15:43.520 got the job
00:15:44.060 in the first place.
00:15:45.820 But once they're there,
00:15:47.840 it's no longer
00:15:48.620 a consideration
00:15:49.400 because they've been
00:15:50.620 working, right?
00:15:51.600 If somebody got hired
00:15:52.740 with an IQ of 70
00:15:54.040 but they were the best
00:15:55.440 employee in the company,
00:15:57.480 who cares?
00:15:59.940 I mean,
00:16:00.440 obviously that wouldn't
00:16:01.240 happen,
00:16:01.680 but who cares?
00:16:03.020 So their IQ becomes
00:16:04.340 effectively a zero
00:16:06.020 consideration
00:16:06.780 as soon as they've
00:16:08.780 performed.
00:16:09.460 Would you agree with that?
00:16:11.040 That at the time
00:16:11.820 you're getting rid of them,
00:16:13.200 IQ is no longer
00:16:14.200 any kind of a variable.
00:16:17.380 Now,
00:16:17.900 I will go further.
00:16:20.540 So what you're arguing
00:16:21.700 is that it's something
00:16:22.520 on the front end,
00:16:24.320 you know,
00:16:24.780 according to your
00:16:25.680 racist view of things,
00:16:27.540 your racist view
00:16:28.660 is that that's
00:16:29.220 what's causing
00:16:29.900 a lower percentage
00:16:30.960 of certain people
00:16:32.300 in some categories.
00:16:34.900 But it's unrelated
00:16:35.940 to what they do
00:16:36.700 when they're downsizing,
00:16:38.100 in my opinion.
00:16:40.100 Unrelated.
00:16:44.000 And by the way,
00:16:46.740 let me say this
00:16:48.240 in case you haven't
00:16:48.820 heard it before.
00:16:51.280 There are many geniuses
00:16:52.780 who are white,
00:16:54.400 but I don't get
00:16:55.720 credit for that.
00:16:57.260 You get that, right?
00:16:58.980 The fact that
00:16:59.660 other people
00:17:00.400 who have similar
00:17:01.720 melanin
00:17:03.880 to what I do,
00:17:05.240 if they got
00:17:06.040 a Nobel Prize,
00:17:07.060 they don't share that
00:17:07.800 with me because I'm white.
00:17:09.680 So the fact that
00:17:10.400 other white people
00:17:11.160 have high IQs,
00:17:12.880 I know this is a surprise,
00:17:14.460 has no impact
00:17:15.260 on my IQ.
00:17:17.100 None at all.
00:17:18.620 It doesn't affect it a bit.
00:17:20.520 So it doesn't matter
00:17:21.300 if groups have
00:17:22.020 different IQs
00:17:23.000 because I'm not a group
00:17:25.000 and you're not a group.
00:17:26.880 So, I mean,
00:17:29.840 obviously differences
00:17:31.200 can explain some,
00:17:33.000 you know,
00:17:33.300 general differences
00:17:34.100 in society.
00:17:35.540 Of course it can.
00:17:36.480 All right.
00:17:38.540 But it doesn't help you.
00:17:39.840 It's not about you.
00:17:40.720 It's just an interesting
00:17:41.660 statistic.
00:17:44.660 Senator Tom Cotton
00:17:45.960 continues to be awesome.
00:17:47.740 Um, I guess the CEO
00:17:50.780 of Kroger
00:17:51.340 was talking to Congress
00:17:52.700 recently,
00:17:54.000 last week,
00:17:55.480 and trying to get
00:17:56.340 support to do a merger,
00:17:57.600 and I guess the Democrats
00:17:58.420 are concerned about
00:18:00.340 them having too much power.
00:18:01.860 Kroger wants to merge
00:18:02.980 with Albertsons,
00:18:03.980 I think.
00:18:04.280 And Tom Cotton
00:18:08.200 said to the CEO
00:18:09.340 of Kroger,
00:18:11.260 quote,
00:18:12.140 I've questioned them
00:18:13.780 for years
00:18:14.380 that if they silence
00:18:16.020 conservatives
00:18:16.660 and center-right voters,
00:18:18.400 if they discriminate
00:18:19.540 against them
00:18:20.300 in their company,
00:18:21.580 they probably shouldn't
00:18:23.880 come and ask
00:18:24.600 Republican senators
00:18:25.720 to carry water
00:18:26.820 for them
00:18:27.300 whenever our
00:18:28.560 Democratic friends
00:18:29.520 want to regulate them
00:18:30.600 or block their mergers.
00:18:32.580 He continued,
00:18:33.500 and then he finished
00:18:35.160 with this.
00:18:36.120 I'll say this.
00:18:37.340 I'm sorry that's
00:18:38.120 happening to you.
00:18:39.660 Best of luck.
00:18:42.960 Oh, that was so based.
00:18:45.040 Best of luck.
00:18:47.580 Yeah, you've been
00:18:48.620 fucking our people
00:18:50.280 every day.
00:18:52.440 You know, our people
00:18:53.120 would be Republicans
00:18:54.460 in his way
00:18:56.060 of seeing things.
00:18:57.080 You've been fucking
00:18:57.780 our people every day
00:18:58.820 and then you're coming
00:18:59.460 and asking us
00:19:00.040 for a favor?
00:19:01.380 Good luck with that.
00:19:03.000 Hey.
00:19:03.500 Good luck.
00:19:04.540 I wish you well.
00:19:08.160 Now, I think
00:19:09.100 the specific
00:19:09.960 thing was that
00:19:12.160 some, I guess
00:19:13.120 some Kroger
00:19:13.720 employees were fired
00:19:15.020 because they were
00:19:16.340 unwilling to wear
00:19:17.280 an apron
00:19:18.660 that was some
00:19:19.460 pro-LGBTQ message.
00:19:22.620 So, I think
00:19:23.700 that's what he was
00:19:24.440 basing his comments on.
00:19:26.040 Um, I would like
00:19:29.880 to once again
00:19:30.680 praise CNN.
00:19:33.000 Can he handle it?
00:19:35.360 CNN did something
00:19:36.600 that just requires
00:19:38.540 a compliment.
00:19:39.840 I know, I know,
00:19:40.720 you hate it.
00:19:41.780 I hate it.
00:19:42.640 But I feel like
00:19:43.500 I can't be an honest
00:19:44.560 broker
00:19:44.980 unless I,
00:19:47.080 unless I call the
00:19:48.120 balls and strikes
00:19:48.780 the way I see them.
00:19:50.660 Here's something
00:19:51.440 that CNN did.
00:19:52.660 They ran a story
00:19:54.840 about a, quote,
00:19:55.780 Florida lawmaker
00:19:56.940 who was accused
00:19:58.460 of misusing
00:19:59.880 COVID relief
00:20:00.760 funds.
00:20:01.640 And that's,
00:20:03.620 that's how they
00:20:04.180 presented it.
00:20:05.220 A Florida lawmaker
00:20:06.400 who was accused
00:20:07.960 of misusing
00:20:09.400 COVID relief
00:20:10.200 frauds.
00:20:11.000 Do you see it?
00:20:12.740 Do you see why
00:20:13.400 I want to compliment
00:20:14.120 them?
00:20:16.060 It was a
00:20:16.820 Republican.
00:20:18.240 It was a
00:20:19.000 Republican.
00:20:21.060 Yeah, you thought
00:20:21.980 I was going to,
00:20:22.520 you thought that
00:20:23.180 they were hiding,
00:20:24.260 you thought they
00:20:24.960 were hiding the
00:20:25.500 party affiliation
00:20:26.280 because it was
00:20:26.820 a Democrat.
00:20:27.940 Nope.
00:20:29.140 Nope.
00:20:29.580 They actually
00:20:31.000 told the story
00:20:31.800 straight.
00:20:32.840 They told the story
00:20:33.980 about an individual
00:20:35.000 who did something
00:20:36.100 bad and then
00:20:37.580 later in the body
00:20:38.620 of the story
00:20:39.280 they identified
00:20:40.620 him as Republican.
00:20:42.540 Perfect.
00:20:44.580 Perfect.
00:20:46.580 Perfect.
00:20:48.180 What did the
00:20:48.860 other publications
00:20:49.660 do?
00:20:51.080 Republican accused
00:20:52.400 of stealing money.
00:20:54.480 Right?
00:20:54.900 That's what the
00:20:55.540 other publications
00:20:56.240 did.
00:20:57.020 Republican
00:20:57.520 who once,
00:20:59.900 I think he was
00:21:00.680 also, he was
00:21:02.280 behind the
00:21:02.740 don't say gay
00:21:03.560 thing.
00:21:06.320 Right?
00:21:07.560 Now, correct me
00:21:08.880 if I'm wrong,
00:21:09.440 is that not worth
00:21:10.400 a compliment?
00:21:12.040 Was that not worth
00:21:13.020 a compliment?
00:21:14.820 You tell me.
00:21:16.660 No.
00:21:17.340 Somebody says no.
00:21:18.020 Well, I would like
00:21:20.400 to encourage what I
00:21:22.140 would like to see
00:21:22.760 more of.
00:21:24.420 And I like that
00:21:25.480 they told me what
00:21:26.280 his party was.
00:21:27.520 But I like that
00:21:28.320 that wasn't the
00:21:28.960 lead.
00:21:30.120 Because that made
00:21:31.520 it a human
00:21:32.140 interest story
00:21:32.800 about a crime.
00:21:33.580 And I think
00:21:33.940 that's what it
00:21:34.360 was.
00:21:34.900 I don't believe
00:21:35.800 that his
00:21:36.880 Republican
00:21:37.440 credentials are
00:21:38.780 what caused
00:21:39.600 him to do a
00:21:40.300 crime.
00:21:40.720 It was actually
00:21:42.900 the lesser
00:21:43.520 important part.
00:21:46.580 All right.
00:21:46.980 Nobody likes it
00:21:47.640 when I compliment
00:21:48.260 CNN.
00:21:49.020 Noted.
00:21:50.240 All right.
00:21:52.220 Let's talk
00:21:53.040 about Dr.
00:21:53.880 Jordan
00:21:54.240 Peterson
00:21:54.780 who's
00:21:55.560 talking about
00:21:57.620 the downside
00:21:58.540 of anonymous
00:21:59.380 Twitter users.
00:22:01.400 Now,
00:22:02.020 here's what I
00:22:02.760 learned.
00:22:04.200 Whenever you
00:22:04.820 introduce a new
00:22:05.700 topic,
00:22:06.400 let's say new-ish,
00:22:08.380 because it's not
00:22:09.140 brand new,
00:22:10.160 but one that
00:22:11.060 has not been
00:22:11.860 completely
00:22:12.640 struggled over
00:22:14.780 for years.
00:22:15.900 Because on most
00:22:16.580 topics,
00:22:17.100 everybody has a
00:22:17.700 hardened opinion
00:22:18.440 and it's not
00:22:19.000 going to change.
00:22:20.240 But when you
00:22:20.600 have some
00:22:21.260 kind of a
00:22:22.040 new-ish kind
00:22:24.180 of a thing,
00:22:24.680 and the question
00:22:25.140 is should we
00:22:25.640 have anonymous,
00:22:26.920 should anonymous
00:22:27.680 accounts be on
00:22:28.800 Twitter and should
00:22:29.980 you be able to
00:22:30.560 block them,
00:22:31.140 et cetera.
00:22:34.100 And the
00:22:34.840 quality of
00:22:35.900 people's comments
00:22:36.960 when I tweeted
00:22:37.840 about it was
00:22:39.260 insanely bad.
00:22:41.600 It's amazing to
00:22:42.620 watch if people
00:22:43.700 have not been
00:22:44.280 assigned their
00:22:44.960 opinions yet,
00:22:46.420 to watch them
00:22:47.080 try to come up
00:22:47.660 with an opinion
00:22:48.400 independently,
00:22:50.060 it's like a sad
00:22:51.140 and it's an
00:22:52.880 awful thing.
00:22:54.200 Number one,
00:22:56.120 a lot of people
00:22:56.880 said, I asked
00:22:58.380 the question,
00:22:59.420 so I tweeted
00:23:00.060 and I asked
00:23:00.500 the question,
00:23:01.620 what did
00:23:02.240 anonymous Twitter
00:23:03.060 users, have
00:23:04.360 they ever solved
00:23:04.980 the problem?
00:23:07.280 So my tweet
00:23:08.600 was, have any
00:23:10.520 anonymous Twitter
00:23:11.720 users ever
00:23:12.520 solved a problem
00:23:13.460 that maybe would
00:23:14.860 not have been
00:23:15.320 solved otherwise?
00:23:15.920 And what did
00:23:17.780 people say?
00:23:19.960 They said, well,
00:23:21.100 it's a good thing
00:23:21.700 we had anonymous
00:23:22.500 people doing
00:23:25.440 XYZ, which had
00:23:27.720 nothing to do
00:23:28.300 with Twitter.
00:23:29.680 Now, do you
00:23:30.900 all get that
00:23:32.620 being anonymous
00:23:33.520 in a completely
00:23:34.440 different context
00:23:35.520 has nothing to do
00:23:36.900 with this?
00:23:38.560 Right?
00:23:39.280 There's no argument
00:23:40.320 that says in a
00:23:41.200 completely different
00:23:42.020 domain, anonymity is
00:23:44.100 either good or
00:23:44.720 bad, you get
00:23:46.180 that that has
00:23:46.660 nothing to do
00:23:47.280 with the Twitter
00:23:47.720 conversation.
00:23:48.980 It just reminds
00:23:49.740 you of it.
00:23:50.840 So be careful
00:23:51.720 of things that
00:23:52.320 just remind you
00:23:53.440 of the topic.
00:23:55.180 Right?
00:23:55.460 The fact that
00:23:56.180 other people talk
00:23:57.040 about anonymity
00:23:57.960 in a completely
00:23:58.680 different context
00:23:59.600 is just something
00:24:00.880 you're reminded
00:24:01.580 of.
00:24:02.280 That's not part
00:24:03.120 of your argument.
00:24:04.360 Your argument
00:24:05.060 is about Twitter
00:24:05.860 specifically,
00:24:07.060 and that's it.
00:24:08.920 If you can't
00:24:09.740 make the argument
00:24:10.300 about Twitter
00:24:10.940 specifically,
00:24:11.600 it doesn't
00:24:12.500 matter what
00:24:12.880 somebody else
00:24:13.420 did, that's
00:24:14.520 telling you
00:24:14.900 nothing.
00:24:15.920 Now, if your
00:24:18.280 example about
00:24:19.080 something else
00:24:19.980 brought up an
00:24:21.520 important point
00:24:22.360 that would also
00:24:23.520 be valid in this
00:24:24.700 domain of Twitter
00:24:25.520 anonymity, then
00:24:26.940 that's good.
00:24:27.920 But I didn't see
00:24:28.800 anybody do that.
00:24:30.300 I just, people
00:24:31.180 said, well, it's
00:24:32.280 good in a
00:24:32.860 completely different
00:24:33.700 way, so
00:24:35.280 therefore it's
00:24:35.860 good on Twitter.
00:24:37.180 That's not an
00:24:38.700 argument.
00:24:39.840 That's actually a
00:24:40.900 nothing.
00:24:41.600 That's like
00:24:42.360 noise.
00:24:43.240 There's no
00:24:44.020 logical thread
00:24:44.860 there at all.
00:24:47.820 And to see how
00:24:48.700 many people went
00:24:49.960 that route was
00:24:51.520 just, like,
00:24:52.560 distressing.
00:24:53.980 Like, you really
00:24:54.920 can't tell that
00:24:56.620 arguing a
00:24:57.240 completely different
00:24:58.080 topic doesn't
00:24:58.780 help.
00:24:59.720 Like, there are a
00:25:00.160 lot of people who
00:25:00.760 can't tell the
00:25:01.380 difference between
00:25:02.800 staying on the
00:25:03.520 topic and arguing
00:25:04.360 a completely
00:25:04.940 different one.
00:25:05.660 Like, that would
00:25:06.440 help.
00:25:07.620 I know, it's
00:25:08.120 weird.
00:25:09.380 But don't do
00:25:10.200 that.
00:25:10.840 Don't do
00:25:11.180 that.
00:25:11.600 The second
00:25:13.920 thing that
00:25:14.300 happened is if
00:25:15.140 you ask a
00:25:15.720 question on
00:25:16.280 Twitter, people
00:25:18.020 assume that they
00:25:18.840 have heard your
00:25:19.400 opinion.
00:25:21.380 That didn't
00:25:22.140 happen.
00:25:23.140 I asked a
00:25:23.900 question because I
00:25:25.060 don't have a
00:25:25.480 fully formed
00:25:26.040 opinion.
00:25:27.360 I would like to
00:25:28.320 see some
00:25:28.700 examples of
00:25:30.120 where anonymity
00:25:31.060 helped Twitter.
00:25:32.360 I'm not saying
00:25:33.180 they don't
00:25:33.600 exist.
00:25:35.080 I didn't say
00:25:35.860 that.
00:25:36.820 I said, can
00:25:37.420 you give me
00:25:37.760 some examples?
00:25:38.440 Because if I
00:25:39.360 had some
00:25:39.620 examples, I
00:25:40.980 could say, oh
00:25:41.400 yeah, that's a
00:25:41.900 good example
00:25:42.500 where anonymity
00:25:44.000 helped the
00:25:44.700 world.
00:25:46.060 And then I
00:25:46.440 would say, okay,
00:25:47.460 those are some
00:25:48.120 good examples.
00:25:48.860 I'll weigh that
00:25:49.380 against whatever
00:25:49.940 cost it is, and
00:25:51.300 they'll have the
00:25:51.720 costs and the
00:25:52.340 benefits.
00:25:54.500 But people
00:25:55.180 said, you
00:25:56.420 fucking bastard,
00:25:57.640 you, why do
00:25:58.760 you hate
00:25:59.100 anonymity?
00:26:00.500 To which I
00:26:01.260 say, where did
00:26:03.420 that come from?
00:26:03.980 And then there
00:26:06.000 were other
00:26:06.260 people who had
00:26:06.880 to explain to
00:26:07.600 me why
00:26:09.100 anonymity is
00:26:10.280 good for the
00:26:10.860 anonymous people.
00:26:12.940 Did you think
00:26:14.040 I was confused
00:26:14.760 about that?
00:26:16.260 Did anybody
00:26:16.980 need to
00:26:17.500 mansplain to
00:26:18.420 me why
00:26:19.520 anonymity is
00:26:20.540 sometimes chosen
00:26:21.360 by people?
00:26:23.780 Isn't that
00:26:24.500 literally known
00:26:25.280 by 100% of
00:26:26.740 all people?
00:26:27.840 I believe
00:26:28.320 babies are born
00:26:29.260 with that
00:26:29.620 knowledge.
00:26:31.320 Why are you
00:26:32.680 explaining that
00:26:33.380 to me?
00:26:33.980 And people
00:26:35.780 thought that
00:26:36.240 that helped.
00:26:37.440 Let me
00:26:38.000 explain why
00:26:39.700 people would
00:26:40.340 not like to
00:26:41.800 lose their
00:26:42.240 jobs over
00:26:42.760 their opinion.
00:26:44.020 No, I get
00:26:44.680 that.
00:26:45.280 I get that.
00:26:46.420 That's why I
00:26:47.060 put it in my
00:26:47.700 tweet.
00:26:48.460 I literally
00:26:48.960 said, I
00:26:50.040 understand why
00:26:50.940 people want
00:26:51.540 anonymity.
00:26:52.760 And what did
00:26:53.200 people tweet to
00:26:53.860 me?
00:26:54.680 Scott, let me
00:26:55.600 explain to you
00:26:56.300 why people want
00:26:57.160 anonymity.
00:27:00.280 Oh!
00:27:00.840 That's my
00:27:04.120 usual experience
00:27:05.800 on social
00:27:06.780 media.
00:27:09.100 All right.
00:27:09.540 Let me offer
00:27:13.820 one useful
00:27:15.180 suggestion.
00:27:16.900 Maybe.
00:27:18.240 Because I feel
00:27:19.180 as though we're
00:27:19.860 limiting ourselves
00:27:20.760 in the prison
00:27:22.000 of two ideas
00:27:23.300 to quote a
00:27:25.120 Greg Guff
00:27:25.740 held point.
00:27:27.900 The prison of
00:27:28.540 two ideas.
00:27:29.560 I don't think
00:27:30.220 anonymous or
00:27:31.040 not anonymous
00:27:31.720 is the right
00:27:33.780 question.
00:27:34.780 Because there
00:27:35.180 might be another
00:27:35.820 category.
00:27:37.080 And here's what
00:27:37.620 I mean.
00:27:38.600 If I see
00:27:39.380 somebody who's
00:27:39.920 completely
00:27:40.460 anonymous and
00:27:41.240 their profile
00:27:41.800 has no picture
00:27:42.640 of anything
00:27:43.240 and no
00:27:45.060 bio profile
00:27:46.460 information,
00:27:47.500 that's what I
00:27:48.420 call totally
00:27:49.560 anonymous.
00:27:50.860 Those anonymous
00:27:51.660 people I'd
00:27:54.380 like to get
00:27:54.860 rid of from
00:27:56.120 my experience.
00:27:56.940 There are
00:27:58.640 other anonymous
00:27:59.300 people who
00:28:00.540 identify as
00:28:01.340 medical doctors,
00:28:03.580 but I don't
00:28:04.160 know who they
00:28:04.640 are in real
00:28:05.480 life.
00:28:06.700 Very useful.
00:28:08.540 I love
00:28:09.600 hearing an
00:28:10.900 anonymous
00:28:11.320 medical doctor
00:28:12.740 give especially
00:28:14.780 contrarian views.
00:28:16.500 Very useful.
00:28:17.800 An anonymous
00:28:18.460 engineer?
00:28:20.100 Very useful.
00:28:21.400 Love it.
00:28:22.360 An anonymous
00:28:23.040 lawyer?
00:28:24.420 Love it.
00:28:25.000 Yeah, when
00:28:26.000 somebody says,
00:28:26.640 I'm a lawyer
00:28:27.520 and here's my
00:28:29.080 opinion, yes.
00:28:31.340 Please give me
00:28:32.540 anonymous legal
00:28:34.280 opinions from
00:28:34.940 people who are
00:28:35.360 actually lawyers.
00:28:36.280 Now, of course,
00:28:36.880 there's some
00:28:37.200 question about
00:28:37.740 whether they're
00:28:38.200 really lawyers,
00:28:39.000 right?
00:28:39.400 But usually you
00:28:40.160 can tell, right?
00:28:41.380 I don't see
00:28:41.840 imposters doing
00:28:42.680 it, really.
00:28:44.020 So I would
00:28:45.680 like some kind
00:28:46.400 of a middle
00:28:47.200 ground between
00:28:49.120 anonymous and
00:28:49.900 not anonymous.
00:28:51.040 Because if you
00:28:51.800 say you're a
00:28:52.360 doctor, you have
00:28:53.860 given a little
00:28:54.460 bit of a clue
00:28:55.300 to your
00:28:56.020 identity, right?
00:28:58.440 And some
00:28:59.000 people could
00:28:59.620 piece together
00:29:00.340 enough clues
00:29:01.120 and maybe figure
00:29:02.320 out that you
00:29:02.980 are this person
00:29:03.660 they suspected.
00:29:05.080 So it's not
00:29:06.400 risk-free to
00:29:08.020 say what your
00:29:08.520 job is or to
00:29:09.920 say what your
00:29:10.320 education level
00:29:11.060 is.
00:29:11.820 But here's
00:29:13.160 the main
00:29:13.480 point.
00:29:16.360 And I won't
00:29:17.580 back down from
00:29:18.380 the following
00:29:18.920 statement because
00:29:19.560 it's universally
00:29:20.340 understood to be
00:29:21.280 true.
00:29:21.480 all communication
00:29:23.460 depends on an
00:29:25.580 assumption that
00:29:26.440 the listener
00:29:27.000 makes about the
00:29:28.700 speaker's
00:29:29.220 intentions.
00:29:30.500 Correct?
00:29:31.340 I need all of
00:29:32.220 you to agree
00:29:32.720 with this before
00:29:33.300 we go on.
00:29:34.540 All communication
00:29:35.540 depends for you
00:29:37.460 to hear it
00:29:38.000 correctly.
00:29:38.880 You have to
00:29:39.560 have an
00:29:39.840 assumption about
00:29:40.540 the speaker.
00:29:42.020 If you assume
00:29:43.080 the speaker is
00:29:43.820 your enemy,
00:29:45.320 then you're
00:29:45.600 probably going
00:29:46.060 to say it's
00:29:46.380 a lie.
00:29:47.420 If you think
00:29:48.220 the speaker is
00:29:48.860 a salesperson,
00:29:50.440 you're probably
00:29:50.920 going to think
00:29:51.340 it's at least
00:29:51.860 hyperbole.
00:29:53.260 If the person
00:29:54.160 is your best
00:29:54.740 friend that you
00:29:55.340 know has your
00:29:55.900 good, you
00:29:57.120 know, your
00:29:57.560 good, what's
00:29:59.620 best for you
00:30:00.060 in mind, then
00:30:01.240 you think it
00:30:01.820 might be wrong
00:30:02.400 or it might be
00:30:02.860 right, but at
00:30:03.960 least it's
00:30:04.260 well-intentioned.
00:30:05.660 Right?
00:30:06.020 A hundred
00:30:06.460 percent of how
00:30:07.120 you process
00:30:07.660 something goes
00:30:09.060 through the
00:30:09.460 filter of who
00:30:10.240 is talking.
00:30:11.720 Now what
00:30:12.320 happens when
00:30:12.860 the speaker is
00:30:14.000 anonymous?
00:30:15.940 Here's what
00:30:16.540 people get
00:30:17.040 wrong.
00:30:18.360 You think you
00:30:19.060 can evaluate an
00:30:20.540 anonymous comment.
00:30:22.540 You can't.
00:30:24.200 You can't.
00:30:25.640 It's just
00:30:26.080 blah, blah,
00:30:26.600 blah.
00:30:27.280 An anonymous
00:30:28.100 comment is
00:30:29.660 blah, blah,
00:30:30.280 blah.
00:30:31.100 Because if you
00:30:31.740 don't know who
00:30:32.240 it's coming from,
00:30:33.140 you can't assume
00:30:34.120 any intention,
00:30:35.500 and therefore
00:30:36.000 there's nothing
00:30:36.860 but noise.
00:30:38.460 It's literally
00:30:39.320 pollution.
00:30:41.000 Right?
00:30:41.620 It's just
00:30:42.040 pollution.
00:30:42.360 have you heard
00:30:46.400 anybody make
00:30:47.020 that point?
00:30:48.100 That if you
00:30:48.500 don't know who
00:30:48.980 is speaking,
00:30:49.560 you can't
00:30:49.880 understand what
00:30:50.480 they said?
00:30:51.740 Has anybody
00:30:52.400 said that?
00:30:53.140 I've not heard
00:30:53.840 anybody say
00:30:54.440 that.
00:30:55.000 And to me,
00:30:55.400 that's probably
00:30:55.780 the most
00:30:56.100 important point.
00:30:57.360 So here's what
00:30:58.360 I'd like to
00:30:58.820 see.
00:31:00.360 I'd like to
00:31:01.200 see an option
00:31:02.260 that I could
00:31:03.760 mass limit
00:31:05.160 completely
00:31:07.680 anonymous
00:31:08.140 accounts,
00:31:08.960 or if I
00:31:09.940 wanted,
00:31:10.240 to limit
00:31:11.620 people who
00:31:12.240 are semi-anonymous,
00:31:13.620 meaning they've
00:31:14.100 told you
00:31:14.420 something about
00:31:15.100 their credentials,
00:31:17.340 but that's all
00:31:17.900 you know.
00:31:18.840 You just know
00:31:19.400 their credentials.
00:31:20.680 So I'd like to
00:31:21.420 know if I'm
00:31:21.780 talking to a
00:31:22.360 student,
00:31:23.700 and I'd like to
00:31:24.380 know if I'm
00:31:24.740 talking to a
00:31:25.260 professional,
00:31:26.360 because I would
00:31:27.040 react completely
00:31:28.000 differently,
00:31:28.920 depending who
00:31:29.480 I'm talking to.
00:31:30.860 Now, it would
00:31:31.560 have to be
00:31:31.920 optional,
00:31:33.040 so you would
00:31:33.480 have to be
00:31:33.840 able to choose
00:31:34.460 whether you
00:31:34.860 gave up any
00:31:35.520 credential information
00:31:36.480 or not,
00:31:37.560 but I would
00:31:38.200 like to be
00:31:38.580 able to choose
00:31:39.080 whether I
00:31:39.560 I'm exposed
00:31:41.020 to those
00:31:41.500 people.
00:31:42.700 Now, that
00:31:43.640 still leaves
00:31:44.480 one gigantic
00:31:46.700 kind of benefit
00:31:48.880 that anonymous
00:31:49.620 people bring
00:31:50.540 that's unaddressed,
00:31:52.580 and we wouldn't
00:31:53.120 want to lose
00:31:53.580 it, and that
00:31:55.200 is there are
00:31:55.880 some completely
00:31:56.780 anonymous people
00:31:57.620 who really need
00:31:58.400 to stay that
00:31:58.940 way, because
00:32:00.120 maybe some of
00:32:00.700 the things they
00:32:01.180 say, if they
00:32:01.700 told you their
00:32:02.200 job, you might
00:32:03.700 know who they
00:32:04.140 were, right?
00:32:05.500 Because there's
00:32:05.920 some anonymous
00:32:06.500 things that only
00:32:07.200 some people know
00:32:07.980 about.
00:32:08.280 So if you
00:32:09.260 knew the
00:32:09.540 job, that
00:32:10.240 kind of
00:32:10.680 would narrow
00:32:11.000 it down
00:32:11.260 too much.
00:32:11.960 So there
00:32:12.320 is a value.
00:32:13.640 There's a real
00:32:14.180 value for
00:32:14.800 completely
00:32:15.500 anonymous
00:32:16.180 accounts.
00:32:18.480 So how do
00:32:19.140 you maintain
00:32:20.340 that value?
00:32:21.560 Because they
00:32:22.160 do have
00:32:22.420 something to
00:32:22.900 say.
00:32:23.740 How do you
00:32:24.300 maintain that
00:32:24.840 value?
00:32:25.560 Now, nobody
00:32:26.100 has a great
00:32:26.580 answer for
00:32:27.160 that.
00:32:28.740 But some
00:32:30.000 people say,
00:32:31.180 Scott,
00:32:32.800 Scott,
00:32:33.120 Scott,
00:32:33.740 you can just
00:32:35.040 block the
00:32:36.020 people you
00:32:36.420 don't want
00:32:36.800 to see.
00:32:37.600 So stop
00:32:38.220 imposing your
00:32:38.980 will upon us.
00:32:39.840 I'm not doing
00:32:40.360 that, by the
00:32:40.840 way.
00:32:41.560 You haven't
00:32:42.160 even heard my
00:32:42.720 opinion.
00:32:43.160 I'm not opposing
00:32:43.820 it on anybody.
00:32:45.220 So the reason
00:32:45.980 you haven't heard
00:32:46.360 my opinion is
00:32:47.060 that I'm not
00:32:48.800 fully informed.
00:32:49.960 I don't have
00:32:50.320 quite a final
00:32:51.320 opinion on this.
00:32:52.420 I have maybe
00:32:52.820 75% of an
00:32:54.020 opinion.
00:32:55.100 And people say
00:32:55.860 to me, Scott,
00:32:56.600 why don't you
00:32:56.960 just block the
00:32:57.600 people you don't
00:32:58.080 like and leave
00:32:59.240 us alone?
00:33:00.000 Like the rest of
00:33:00.860 us are okay.
00:33:02.120 If you're a
00:33:02.720 bitch and just
00:33:03.200 block the
00:33:03.640 people you
00:33:04.020 don't want to
00:33:04.400 see, and
00:33:04.780 done.
00:33:05.480 You know why
00:33:06.100 that doesn't
00:33:06.580 work, right?
00:33:08.460 Do you all
00:33:08.940 know why that
00:33:09.400 doesn't work?
00:33:12.400 Yeah.
00:33:13.060 For the
00:33:13.520 larger accounts,
00:33:14.880 it would be
00:33:15.920 endless.
00:33:17.120 And the
00:33:17.620 motivated trolls
00:33:18.800 literally just
00:33:20.080 take their
00:33:20.480 other account
00:33:21.000 and come
00:33:21.300 back.
00:33:22.600 Now, if you
00:33:23.280 don't have a
00:33:23.660 big account,
00:33:24.280 you've never
00:33:24.720 seen that
00:33:25.420 before.
00:33:26.340 But I block
00:33:27.200 people and they
00:33:27.780 come back in
00:33:28.280 five minutes.
00:33:29.860 Blocking doesn't
00:33:30.460 make any
00:33:30.860 difference.
00:33:31.600 The motivated
00:33:32.160 trolls just
00:33:32.860 use their
00:33:33.700 other troll
00:33:34.540 account or
00:33:35.260 start another
00:33:36.320 one in five
00:33:36.920 minutes or
00:33:37.540 something.
00:33:38.120 But they
00:33:38.460 come right
00:33:38.800 back.
00:33:41.520 Is it you
00:33:42.280 are rich?
00:33:42.760 Hire somebody.
00:33:43.560 You can't
00:33:44.100 hire somebody
00:33:44.940 to block
00:33:46.280 people based
00:33:46.940 on your
00:33:47.360 opinion.
00:33:48.700 That's not
00:33:49.400 a job.
00:33:53.180 So, here's
00:33:54.180 the other
00:33:54.640 thing that
00:33:55.000 people get
00:33:55.420 wrong.
00:33:57.140 When Jordan
00:33:58.260 Peterson is
00:33:59.220 talking about
00:34:00.460 I think he's
00:34:01.800 stopping short
00:34:02.540 of giving you
00:34:03.160 his preferred
00:34:03.880 final solution.
00:34:07.380 I won't say
00:34:07.760 final solution.
00:34:08.740 I think he's
00:34:09.220 not giving you
00:34:09.780 his preferred
00:34:10.360 solution.
00:34:12.060 I think he's
00:34:12.660 sort of raising
00:34:13.320 the topic because
00:34:14.100 it's a good
00:34:14.480 topic.
00:34:15.300 So, I would
00:34:16.340 not give him
00:34:17.220 trouble on that.
00:34:18.600 But, I will
00:34:19.340 add my own
00:34:20.240 global Dr.
00:34:21.780 Jordan Peterson
00:34:22.460 criticism because
00:34:24.200 apparently that's
00:34:26.180 a popular thing
00:34:27.920 to do now.
00:34:29.380 Has everybody
00:34:29.860 noticed that
00:34:30.580 criticizing Jordan
00:34:31.860 Peterson is
00:34:32.600 like a really
00:34:34.080 popular thing
00:34:35.260 now?
00:34:37.080 A lot of
00:34:37.840 people who
00:34:38.220 had maybe
00:34:38.740 been more
00:34:39.540 pro-Peterson
00:34:40.280 are starting
00:34:42.040 to wear thin.
00:34:43.140 And I wonder
00:34:44.800 why.
00:34:46.300 I wonder why.
00:34:47.620 And I've got
00:34:48.120 some hypotheses.
00:34:49.340 Number one,
00:34:52.680 there are a
00:34:53.240 lot of people
00:34:53.720 such as
00:34:54.360 myself who
00:34:55.080 could accurately
00:34:55.760 be called
00:34:56.400 the poor
00:34:57.540 man's Jordan
00:34:58.860 Peterson.
00:35:00.000 Meaning that I
00:35:01.200 talk about a
00:35:02.240 lot of overlapping
00:35:03.020 topics with him,
00:35:04.400 but I don't have
00:35:05.260 his credentials or
00:35:06.280 his success or
00:35:07.740 fame.
00:35:09.100 So, I'm
00:35:10.920 completely aware
00:35:11.860 of the fact
00:35:12.440 that there's a
00:35:14.080 jealousy
00:35:14.500 component.
00:35:16.720 Right?
00:35:17.360 It's really
00:35:17.840 hard to look at
00:35:18.540 him just
00:35:19.660 cleaning up.
00:35:22.100 I mean, he's
00:35:22.800 really making a
00:35:24.020 big impression
00:35:25.260 on reality.
00:35:26.340 It's hard to
00:35:26.800 watch that if
00:35:28.440 you wish you
00:35:29.040 could be doing
00:35:29.560 the same thing,
00:35:30.420 but you're like
00:35:31.620 an ant compared
00:35:32.840 to an elephant.
00:35:34.400 Right?
00:35:34.720 The ant doesn't
00:35:35.720 feel real good
00:35:36.400 about the
00:35:36.780 elephant.
00:35:38.040 So, as a
00:35:38.820 member of the
00:35:39.400 ant class, I
00:35:41.320 get that.
00:35:42.540 Because I have
00:35:43.760 to fight it
00:35:44.380 myself.
00:35:45.720 Like, I feel
00:35:46.320 myself getting
00:35:47.840 into that
00:35:48.380 petty, jealousy
00:35:49.540 kind of mode
00:35:50.360 in my mind,
00:35:51.420 but I'm also
00:35:52.160 aware of it.
00:35:53.340 So, I try to
00:35:54.220 be bigger than
00:35:56.300 that, but it's
00:35:56.980 hard.
00:35:58.200 So, some of it
00:35:58.900 is just
00:35:59.220 being successful.
00:36:00.220 Now, I get
00:36:00.660 the same thing,
00:36:01.320 right?
00:36:01.560 People who are
00:36:02.160 less successful
00:36:02.860 than I am
00:36:03.540 are really angry
00:36:04.940 at me.
00:36:06.160 So, you've
00:36:06.740 watched me on
00:36:07.400 Twitter, probably,
00:36:08.760 that probably
00:36:10.080 75% of my
00:36:11.720 most vocal
00:36:12.600 critics actually
00:36:14.080 identify themselves
00:36:15.000 as professional
00:36:15.760 writers who
00:36:17.600 are all less
00:36:18.240 successful than
00:36:18.960 I am.
00:36:20.380 Coincidence?
00:36:21.200 Is it a
00:36:21.920 coincidence that
00:36:23.240 the people who
00:36:23.740 are professionally
00:36:24.480 in the same
00:36:25.160 field but less
00:36:25.880 successful are
00:36:27.040 all really mad
00:36:28.100 at me?
00:36:29.060 Boy, are they
00:36:29.680 mad at what I
00:36:30.360 said yesterday.
00:36:31.700 Boy, they need
00:36:32.380 to take me down
00:36:33.680 a rung.
00:36:34.540 And, of course,
00:36:35.280 they always say,
00:36:36.100 I used to like
00:36:37.120 him.
00:36:39.500 Can I make a
00:36:41.060 little aside?
00:36:41.540 When you're
00:36:43.700 criticizing famous
00:36:45.060 people, I'll put
00:36:46.720 myself in that
00:36:47.500 category for this
00:36:48.560 conversation.
00:36:50.700 When you start
00:36:51.720 out your
00:36:52.080 criticism with,
00:36:53.820 I used to
00:36:54.480 like them,
00:36:55.800 but,
00:36:57.080 your credibility
00:37:01.280 just goes right
00:37:02.060 through the
00:37:02.380 floor, just
00:37:03.720 goes right
00:37:04.180 through the
00:37:04.480 floor.
00:37:06.540 Because usually
00:37:07.400 the person
00:37:07.860 hasn't changed
00:37:08.460 that much.
00:37:09.460 Usually it's
00:37:09.940 something about
00:37:10.400 you.
00:37:11.540 So, anyway,
00:37:13.700 that's just a
00:37:14.380 personal thing.
00:37:16.260 But, I would
00:37:17.900 say that, in
00:37:18.880 my opinion,
00:37:20.180 Jordan Peterson
00:37:20.880 has one flaw
00:37:22.740 according to
00:37:24.900 me.
00:37:25.800 Right?
00:37:26.200 And it's not
00:37:26.640 like I'm the,
00:37:27.300 I'm not the
00:37:28.220 arbiter of
00:37:29.220 flaws and
00:37:30.780 people who are
00:37:31.280 smarter than I
00:37:32.060 am.
00:37:33.000 So, I'm always
00:37:33.700 a little cautious.
00:37:35.120 He's definitely
00:37:35.640 smarter than me.
00:37:37.500 Would you all
00:37:38.060 agree?
00:37:39.680 Can I get a
00:37:40.460 yes to that?
00:37:41.180 Jordan Peterson
00:37:41.700 is smarter
00:37:42.120 than I am.
00:37:43.600 So, when you
00:37:44.260 criticize people
00:37:45.040 who are smarter
00:37:45.640 than you,
00:37:46.880 and also way
00:37:48.360 better informed,
00:37:49.840 way better
00:37:50.380 informed,
00:37:51.480 you should have
00:37:52.420 a little bit
00:37:52.760 of humility.
00:37:54.160 Right?
00:37:54.380 A little bit
00:37:54.760 of humility
00:37:55.220 when you do
00:37:55.720 that.
00:37:55.920 I do have one
00:37:58.400 criticism, and I
00:38:00.860 don't even know
00:38:01.380 if he would
00:38:01.760 disagree with
00:38:02.320 it.
00:38:03.140 Actually, if I
00:38:04.420 said it to him
00:38:04.960 in person, I
00:38:06.280 suspect he
00:38:07.040 would take it
00:38:08.720 as a semi-valid
00:38:11.040 comment, even if
00:38:11.900 he didn't agree
00:38:12.600 with it.
00:38:13.360 And it goes
00:38:13.880 like this.
00:38:15.460 Especially on
00:38:16.300 his relationship
00:38:17.100 and marriage
00:38:17.780 advice, and
00:38:19.200 in some other
00:38:19.820 categories, I
00:38:21.460 think he
00:38:21.820 designs advice
00:38:22.780 for people
00:38:23.960 like him.
00:38:26.280 Do you
00:38:26.860 know what I
00:38:27.160 mean?
00:38:27.820 So, when he
00:38:28.500 talks about
00:38:28.920 marriage being
00:38:29.620 the best
00:38:30.560 model, etc., I
00:38:32.220 think he's
00:38:32.560 right for
00:38:34.300 people like
00:38:34.820 him.
00:38:35.040 And when
00:38:38.360 he talks about
00:38:39.160 the anonymous
00:38:41.820 users on
00:38:42.980 Twitter, I
00:38:44.360 feel like he's
00:38:45.000 talking about
00:38:45.700 what the
00:38:46.960 experience is
00:38:47.680 like for
00:38:48.260 people like
00:38:48.820 him.
00:38:49.880 Now I'm a
00:38:51.240 lesser version
00:38:51.940 of people like
00:38:52.640 him, because I
00:38:53.640 have a lot of
00:38:54.580 followers.
00:38:56.140 So, therefore, I
00:38:57.520 get that.
00:38:58.560 Like when he
00:38:59.080 says I'd like to
00:39:00.080 be free from
00:39:01.460 the anonymous
00:39:01.960 people, or
00:39:02.940 have the choice
00:39:03.500 to turn them
00:39:04.620 off, I get
00:39:05.580 that, because
00:39:06.560 they're a
00:39:06.880 gigantic pain
00:39:07.720 in the ass.
00:39:09.220 But, I can
00:39:11.580 also imagine
00:39:12.280 that a small
00:39:12.940 account wouldn't
00:39:14.700 have any problem
00:39:15.360 with them at
00:39:15.760 all, because
00:39:16.920 the trolls don't
00:39:19.360 really visit the
00:39:20.160 smaller accounts
00:39:20.860 as much.
00:39:21.840 So, they
00:39:22.360 might say,
00:39:22.840 well, I like
00:39:23.860 having the
00:39:24.300 anonymous people,
00:39:25.280 they don't
00:39:25.600 bother me, let's
00:39:27.120 just keep it the
00:39:27.700 way it is.
00:39:29.340 And I don't
00:39:30.280 know if
00:39:30.920 Peterson is
00:39:31.620 quite incorporating
00:39:33.700 in his opinion
00:39:34.420 how unique his
00:39:36.200 position is, that
00:39:37.800 the trolls are
00:39:38.500 only coming
00:39:39.040 after people
00:39:40.440 with big
00:39:41.300 accounts.
00:39:42.340 So, it's a
00:39:42.960 whole different
00:39:43.360 problem.
00:39:44.000 So, whatever is
00:39:44.900 the right solution
00:39:45.660 for people like
00:39:46.680 him, it would
00:39:48.540 be a stretch to
00:39:49.360 say that's the
00:39:49.880 right solution
00:39:50.400 for people who
00:39:51.120 are not like
00:39:51.640 him, in the
00:39:53.320 important ways.
00:39:55.420 All right, so,
00:39:56.900 it's impossible
00:39:57.820 for me to block
00:39:58.560 things.
00:39:59.120 Here are some
00:39:59.600 examples that
00:40:01.500 people said where
00:40:02.340 maybe Twitter did
00:40:03.380 help.
00:40:04.380 Do you think
00:40:04.880 that Twitter's
00:40:06.340 anonymous users
00:40:07.620 helped make
00:40:08.520 Bitcoin succeed?
00:40:10.660 Yes or no?
00:40:11.900 Twitter's
00:40:12.460 anonymous users,
00:40:13.780 did they make
00:40:14.300 Bitcoin succeed?
00:40:16.240 This is an
00:40:17.080 argument that I
00:40:17.740 heard today.
00:40:18.660 I think no.
00:40:20.000 I think no,
00:40:21.340 but I understand
00:40:22.480 yes.
00:40:24.180 So, I understand
00:40:25.340 why you could
00:40:25.840 say yes.
00:40:27.080 So, I'm not
00:40:27.860 going to debate
00:40:28.400 it, but I don't
00:40:29.660 quite see it.
00:40:30.480 It might be
00:40:31.680 true.
00:40:32.640 So, I'm making
00:40:33.360 a fine point
00:40:34.040 here.
00:40:34.540 I'm not
00:40:35.020 disagreeing.
00:40:37.000 I'm saying I
00:40:38.000 don't see the
00:40:38.900 argument, but
00:40:39.500 maybe, maybe.
00:40:41.120 How about the
00:40:42.060 dissemination of
00:40:43.620 any WikiLeaks
00:40:44.820 stuff?
00:40:46.780 Do you think
00:40:47.260 WikiLeaks, being
00:40:48.440 an anonymous
00:40:49.000 organization, do
00:40:51.060 you think that
00:40:51.660 that benefited the
00:40:54.000 world and Twitter
00:40:55.500 allowing them to
00:40:56.280 be anonymous,
00:40:57.480 helped that?
00:40:58.780 I think yes.
00:41:01.320 I think that's a
00:41:01.920 good example.
00:41:04.360 Yeah.
00:41:04.720 That's probably a
00:41:05.700 good example where
00:41:06.500 anonymous Twitter
00:41:08.240 users had some
00:41:09.260 benefit.
00:41:11.140 I'll give you
00:41:11.900 that one.
00:41:13.220 So, this is why I
00:41:14.440 haven't formed a
00:41:15.180 final opinion on
00:41:16.100 this, because I
00:41:17.360 feel like we just
00:41:18.580 maybe need better
00:41:19.380 choices that
00:41:20.360 handle more of
00:41:21.460 our concerns.
00:41:22.920 Our current
00:41:23.500 choices leave
00:41:24.960 out some
00:41:25.380 concerns.
00:41:28.020 Yeah.
00:41:28.780 I definitely
00:41:29.500 think that
00:41:30.060 anonymous people
00:41:30.840 on Twitter have
00:41:31.500 some value, and
00:41:33.720 knowing the
00:41:34.340 examples I think
00:41:35.060 helps us a little
00:41:35.640 bit.
00:41:37.900 So, Elon Musk
00:41:39.040 tweeted this.
00:41:39.960 He was talking
00:41:40.240 about Jack Dorsey.
00:41:41.520 He was actually
00:41:42.060 responding to
00:41:42.760 Jack.
00:41:44.880 And Jack Dorsey
00:41:45.840 was saying that
00:41:46.440 all of the Twitter
00:41:47.220 files should be
00:41:47.900 released, that we
00:41:49.240 shouldn't be
00:41:49.720 deciding what
00:41:50.420 people see and
00:41:51.040 what they don't.
00:41:52.420 Everything that's
00:41:53.200 on the right
00:41:53.640 topic should all
00:41:55.160 be released.
00:41:55.720 Now, what do
00:41:56.860 you think about
00:41:57.340 the fact that
00:41:58.260 the ex-CEO of
00:41:59.820 Twitter says
00:42:02.080 everything should
00:42:02.740 be released?
00:42:03.960 What does that
00:42:04.500 tell you about
00:42:05.200 his own potential,
00:42:08.000 let's say,
00:42:09.380 liability?
00:42:10.780 Well, he's not
00:42:11.500 worried about it.
00:42:13.000 Yeah.
00:42:13.400 Clearly, he doesn't
00:42:14.240 have anything to
00:42:14.860 hide.
00:42:16.360 Now, here's what
00:42:18.440 Musk says in
00:42:19.740 response.
00:42:21.500 He says,
00:42:22.320 most important
00:42:23.280 data was
00:42:23.860 hidden, and
00:42:24.760 then parenthetically,
00:42:26.020 from you, too.
00:42:27.740 In other words,
00:42:28.380 Musk is saying
00:42:29.060 that the prior
00:42:29.780 CEO of Twitter
00:42:31.120 did not have
00:42:32.460 the information
00:42:33.060 that Musk has
00:42:33.860 because it was
00:42:34.860 hidden from
00:42:35.340 both of them,
00:42:36.540 but Musk found
00:42:37.980 out.
00:42:39.800 Right?
00:42:40.400 And some may
00:42:41.960 have been deleted,
00:42:43.460 so we don't know
00:42:44.360 how much has been
00:42:45.020 deleted and can't
00:42:45.960 be recovered,
00:42:46.780 but everything we
00:42:47.900 find will be
00:42:48.560 released.
00:42:49.860 So, Musk
00:42:50.680 agrees.
00:42:51.100 Now, I would
00:42:54.620 like to take
00:42:55.500 credit for the
00:42:58.980 best prediction
00:42:59.880 in this domain.
00:43:01.740 For a couple
00:43:02.580 of years or
00:43:03.280 more, I've been
00:43:03.980 saying I do
00:43:05.080 not believe,
00:43:05.760 and I've been
00:43:06.060 saying this very
00:43:06.620 aggressively, I do
00:43:08.040 not believe that
00:43:08.760 Jack Dorsey is
00:43:09.740 aware of what
00:43:11.260 the staff is
00:43:11.900 doing, and I
00:43:13.020 don't think he
00:43:13.500 has a way to
00:43:13.980 find out.
00:43:16.500 I think the
00:43:17.300 only reason that
00:43:17.940 Musk found out
00:43:18.820 is that he's
00:43:19.980 willing to fire
00:43:20.760 anybody who
00:43:21.420 gives him an
00:43:21.980 ambiguous answer
00:43:23.160 to a question.
00:43:25.840 And only the
00:43:26.460 new, that's
00:43:27.520 something only
00:43:27.980 the new guy
00:43:28.520 can do.
00:43:29.400 I'll say guy
00:43:30.140 generically,
00:43:30.920 right?
00:43:31.760 Only the new
00:43:32.620 guy can fire
00:43:33.780 you because your
00:43:34.480 answer wasn't
00:43:35.200 convincing.
00:43:36.940 Like, that's
00:43:37.520 new guy energy.
00:43:39.060 The existing
00:43:39.780 person has to
00:43:41.260 treat everybody
00:43:41.900 as complete
00:43:42.780 individuals,
00:43:43.700 right?
00:43:44.200 You have to
00:43:44.700 look at how
00:43:45.100 long they've
00:43:45.540 worked there,
00:43:46.440 and all of
00:43:47.140 your other
00:43:47.520 interactions and
00:43:48.500 everything.
00:43:48.780 So it's
00:43:49.460 hard for the
00:43:50.020 existing, you
00:43:51.040 know, legacy
00:43:52.200 CEO to be
00:43:54.280 enough of a
00:43:55.260 hard ass to
00:43:56.960 find out what's
00:43:57.620 going on.
00:43:58.220 That's a tough
00:43:58.940 job.
00:43:59.980 And I think one
00:44:00.560 of the reasons,
00:44:01.160 this is just
00:44:01.600 speculation, I
00:44:02.500 don't know this
00:44:02.960 for sure, I
00:44:03.900 think one of the
00:44:04.600 reasons that
00:44:05.340 Jack was so
00:44:06.260 supportive of
00:44:07.920 Elon Musk taking
00:44:08.840 over is that
00:44:10.140 even Jack knew
00:44:11.040 that he was in
00:44:12.280 a, let's say,
00:44:13.800 a disadvantaged
00:44:14.780 situation for
00:44:16.640 running the
00:44:17.140 company.
00:44:17.740 Plus he had
00:44:18.200 two companies,
00:44:18.920 right?
00:44:19.200 So that's also
00:44:20.440 a factor.
00:44:21.740 So I think
00:44:22.740 that, you know,
00:44:23.340 Musk has more
00:44:24.060 than two, so
00:44:25.160 maybe it wasn't
00:44:25.700 a factor.
00:44:26.680 But I think
00:44:28.540 the new CEO
00:44:30.440 has an advantage
00:44:31.460 that the
00:44:31.960 founder CEO
00:44:33.500 can never
00:44:34.480 match.
00:44:36.060 And I think
00:44:36.380 that's what
00:44:36.800 Elon brought.
00:44:37.740 And I think
00:44:38.120 he also stirred
00:44:38.980 the pause so
00:44:39.620 much that it
00:44:40.740 just allowed
00:44:41.420 maybe some
00:44:42.200 things to
00:44:42.800 bubble up.
00:44:44.500 Because, you
00:44:45.020 know, the whole
00:44:45.340 Jim Baker
00:44:45.880 thing only
00:44:46.460 happened because
00:44:48.060 Musk stirred
00:44:48.920 the pot.
00:44:50.420 Otherwise you
00:44:51.040 never would
00:44:51.480 have even
00:44:51.840 heard that
00:44:52.440 he was
00:44:52.740 working there.
00:44:53.840 It was only
00:44:54.340 because Elon
00:44:55.520 said let's
00:44:56.080 make some
00:44:56.440 trouble with
00:44:56.940 these Twitter
00:44:57.380 files that
00:44:59.020 like brought
00:45:00.140 up the other
00:45:01.060 stuff.
00:45:02.540 So my
00:45:03.840 claim that
00:45:04.540 the CEO of
00:45:05.740 Twitter, Jack
00:45:06.760 Dorsey, was
00:45:07.720 not the one
00:45:08.480 who was the
00:45:09.140 mastermind behind
00:45:10.840 any bad things
00:45:11.920 that happened
00:45:12.420 in terms of
00:45:13.300 suppression, etc.
00:45:14.100 And I still
00:45:16.120 believe that.
00:45:17.860 Now we
00:45:18.500 could find out
00:45:19.720 differently.
00:45:20.740 I mean,
00:45:21.560 anything could
00:45:22.160 happen.
00:45:22.740 But at the
00:45:23.220 moment, would
00:45:24.440 you give me
00:45:24.960 that that was
00:45:25.440 the best
00:45:25.940 prediction, the
00:45:28.040 most unlikely
00:45:28.800 prediction, and
00:45:30.340 also the best
00:45:30.960 one about this
00:45:31.600 topic?
00:45:33.840 Now one of my
00:45:34.920 critics said
00:45:35.520 this morning,
00:45:37.160 Scott, you
00:45:38.360 never admit that
00:45:39.260 you got the
00:45:39.740 Covington kids
00:45:40.840 hoax wrong
00:45:42.260 for all of
00:45:43.220 one day.
00:45:44.980 I tell you
00:45:45.760 that all the
00:45:46.320 time.
00:45:47.340 I tell you I
00:45:48.220 got the, you
00:45:49.120 know, Trump's
00:45:49.640 vice president
00:45:50.280 pick wrong.
00:45:52.100 I'm pretty sure
00:45:53.000 that when I
00:45:53.520 claim victory, I
00:45:54.620 often try to,
00:45:55.920 you know, tell
00:45:57.000 you which ones
00:45:58.180 I got wrong.
00:45:58.960 Because you can
00:45:59.600 learn as much
00:46:00.160 from the ones
00:46:00.600 I get wrong
00:46:01.220 as the ones
00:46:01.620 I get right,
00:46:02.480 because there's
00:46:03.080 a pattern to
00:46:03.800 both.
00:46:04.920 The ones I
00:46:05.760 get right are
00:46:07.220 because I had
00:46:07.820 some special
00:46:08.420 information.
00:46:08.920 either I knew
00:46:10.540 something about
00:46:11.100 persuasion, or
00:46:12.420 in the case of
00:46:13.160 Twitter, I
00:46:14.300 personally interacted
00:46:15.640 with Dorsey, and
00:46:16.820 I didn't think
00:46:17.520 there was any
00:46:18.100 chance he was
00:46:18.660 lying to me.
00:46:20.060 Right?
00:46:20.580 Because I'm
00:46:20.980 pretty good at
00:46:21.860 seeing if people
00:46:24.720 are weasels, and
00:46:25.940 he doesn't have
00:46:26.440 any weasel
00:46:27.220 energy whatsoever.
00:46:29.740 That's the
00:46:30.400 weirdest backhand
00:46:31.220 compliment I've
00:46:31.920 ever given.
00:46:32.900 He has no
00:46:33.520 weasel energy.
00:46:34.960 Like, you can
00:46:35.740 tell weasel
00:46:36.380 energy when you
00:46:37.020 see it, can't
00:46:37.600 you?
00:46:37.720 Like, even if
00:46:39.080 they're not
00:46:39.440 lying to you at
00:46:40.420 the moment, you
00:46:41.980 say to yourself,
00:46:42.780 but they could
00:46:43.640 lie to me.
00:46:44.920 Like, they have
00:46:45.720 that potential.
00:46:46.540 Maybe not now, but
00:46:48.060 they have that
00:46:48.660 potential.
00:46:50.200 Yeah, SPF, he
00:46:51.220 has that potential.
00:46:52.360 But Jack doesn't
00:46:53.980 look or have that
00:46:55.320 energy at all.
00:46:57.040 At all.
00:46:58.300 Like, he's just
00:46:58.820 completely absent.
00:47:01.000 So, if I'm wrong
00:47:02.700 about that, I'm the
00:47:03.560 worst judge of
00:47:04.260 character in the
00:47:05.260 world, but I don't
00:47:06.680 think I'm wrong.
00:47:08.600 Some shocking
00:47:10.020 information about
00:47:11.200 the mental health
00:47:12.800 of teens.
00:47:14.540 The CDC found
00:47:15.780 that 45% of
00:47:18.220 high school
00:47:18.640 students were so
00:47:19.620 persistently sad
00:47:20.780 or hopeless in
00:47:22.160 2021, they were
00:47:23.920 unable to engage
00:47:24.960 in regular
00:47:25.520 activities.
00:47:27.140 Almost one in
00:47:27.940 five seriously
00:47:28.820 considered suicide.
00:47:30.180 almost one in
00:47:33.300 five.
00:47:34.980 And 9% surveyed
00:47:38.520 tried to actually
00:47:39.280 do it.
00:47:41.380 They tried to
00:47:42.240 actually take
00:47:42.720 their lives.
00:47:43.780 So, the
00:47:44.180 conclusion of
00:47:44.900 this is that
00:47:46.520 the pandemic
00:47:47.200 increased teen
00:47:49.380 suicide, correct?
00:47:51.320 Is that the
00:47:52.140 conclusion?
00:47:54.000 Thank you.
00:47:55.560 Thank you.
00:47:56.220 Over on
00:47:57.100 Locals, a
00:47:57.840 well-educated
00:47:59.920 person just
00:48:00.560 said, what
00:48:01.800 was the
00:48:02.220 fucking
00:48:02.580 baseline?
00:48:04.080 Do you
00:48:04.760 know what the
00:48:05.060 baseline was?
00:48:06.260 The same.
00:48:08.380 Yeah, it's the
00:48:09.320 baseline.
00:48:10.140 Now, it is
00:48:10.920 higher.
00:48:11.600 All right, let me
00:48:12.260 be more
00:48:12.680 technically accurate.
00:48:13.820 It's a little
00:48:14.280 bit higher, but
00:48:15.640 it's not
00:48:15.980 shockingly
00:48:16.600 higher.
00:48:17.380 It's about a
00:48:18.440 little bit
00:48:18.760 higher like you
00:48:19.440 would expect.
00:48:20.140 It didn't
00:48:21.800 double it.
00:48:23.680 Like, 9%
00:48:25.140 attempting it is
00:48:26.840 actually baseline.
00:48:28.960 I mean, it's
00:48:29.480 hideous that it's
00:48:30.260 baseline, but it
00:48:31.920 is.
00:48:32.680 It is.
00:48:33.840 Yeah.
00:48:35.360 When I first
00:48:36.840 read that one
00:48:38.200 in, was it,
00:48:39.880 one in five
00:48:41.780 seriously
00:48:42.300 considered
00:48:42.880 suicide, do
00:48:44.060 you know what
00:48:44.300 my first
00:48:44.800 impression was?
00:48:46.240 That seemed
00:48:46.980 low.
00:48:47.300 I thought that
00:48:49.360 was lower than
00:48:49.980 the baseline.
00:48:51.080 Are you telling
00:48:51.380 me only one
00:48:52.120 in five teenagers
00:48:53.140 considered suicide?
00:48:54.820 Really?
00:48:55.280 Just one in
00:48:55.900 five?
00:48:56.860 I don't believe
00:48:57.660 that.
00:48:58.480 I think it's
00:48:58.960 at least two
00:48:59.440 in five.
00:49:00.440 I think it's
00:49:01.100 at least
00:49:01.420 double.
00:49:03.660 But this
00:49:04.740 gets down to
00:49:05.320 the definition
00:49:05.880 of consider,
00:49:06.720 doesn't it?
00:49:07.880 You know, I
00:49:08.520 gave a whole
00:49:09.300 description of
00:49:09.980 what that
00:49:10.420 means in
00:49:11.140 my view.
00:49:13.180 I literally
00:49:14.080 consider it
00:49:15.020 every day.
00:49:16.420 And then I
00:49:16.900 completely rule
00:49:17.680 it out.
00:49:18.800 Completely rule
00:49:19.560 it out.
00:49:20.560 So am I
00:49:21.160 considering
00:49:21.600 suicide?
00:49:23.720 If you say
00:49:24.520 that out
00:49:24.940 loud, yeah,
00:49:26.100 you're going
00:49:26.400 to be
00:49:26.640 immediately
00:49:27.100 put into
00:49:27.760 the channel
00:49:29.460 of people
00:49:29.960 who look
00:49:30.420 like they're
00:49:30.800 going to
00:49:31.000 do it
00:49:31.240 any minute.
00:49:32.160 Because nobody's
00:49:32.740 going to take
00:49:33.100 a chance
00:49:33.480 on that.
00:49:34.460 But I
00:49:35.460 don't know,
00:49:35.760 how do
00:49:36.260 kids answer
00:49:36.860 the question?
00:49:37.880 Did you
00:49:38.320 consider it?
00:49:40.200 Well, suppose
00:49:40.740 they thought
00:49:41.460 about it for
00:49:41.860 a little while
00:49:42.380 and then ruled
00:49:42.980 it out.
00:49:44.040 If you ask
00:49:44.760 them if they
00:49:45.160 considered it,
00:49:45.820 are they going
00:49:46.140 to say yes?
00:49:47.500 Or are they
00:49:47.840 going to say,
00:49:48.120 I thought
00:49:48.560 about it
00:49:49.080 and then I
00:49:50.100 ruled it
00:49:50.480 out?
00:49:51.940 Does a
00:49:52.820 kid know
00:49:54.580 that that
00:49:54.980 would be
00:49:55.300 called
00:49:55.560 considering
00:49:56.100 it?
00:49:57.380 I don't
00:49:57.760 know.
00:49:58.500 I think
00:49:59.040 one in
00:49:59.360 five is
00:49:59.700 low.
00:50:00.020 now if
00:50:02.520 they said
00:50:02.980 how serious
00:50:04.560 were you?
00:50:05.100 Did you
00:50:05.320 make an
00:50:05.600 actual plan
00:50:06.320 to do it?
00:50:06.960 Then that
00:50:07.620 would get
00:50:07.960 a whole
00:50:08.280 different
00:50:08.700 kind of
00:50:09.560 answer.
00:50:11.500 All right.
00:50:12.980 So
00:50:13.340 what percent
00:50:17.120 of Americans
00:50:17.880 this is
00:50:18.200 according to
00:50:18.620 Rasmussen,
00:50:19.480 what percent
00:50:20.000 of Americans
00:50:20.580 believe that
00:50:21.260 the vaccinations
00:50:22.080 were a
00:50:24.080 good idea?
00:50:26.640 what do
00:50:29.280 you think?
00:50:35.140 Well,
00:50:35.620 let me put
00:50:35.920 it this
00:50:36.160 way.
00:50:36.880 And by
00:50:37.140 the way,
00:50:37.420 I'm going
00:50:37.780 to do a
00:50:38.340 demonstration
00:50:39.120 for anybody
00:50:41.000 who's new
00:50:41.440 to this
00:50:41.760 live stream.
00:50:43.120 I'm going
00:50:43.400 to do a
00:50:45.980 demonstration
00:50:46.420 of how
00:50:47.260 smart and
00:50:48.800 how psychic
00:50:49.500 my audience
00:50:50.960 is.
00:50:51.960 I'm going
00:50:52.260 to ask
00:50:52.500 a question
00:50:52.980 that they
00:50:53.560 do not
00:50:53.920 know the
00:50:54.220 answer to
00:50:54.660 and watch
00:50:55.280 how well
00:50:56.300 they perform.
00:50:57.540 Just watch
00:50:57.900 this.
00:50:59.360 According to
00:51:00.040 Rasmussen,
00:51:01.740 what percentage
00:51:02.520 of the
00:51:03.120 voting
00:51:03.580 adults
00:51:04.660 say that
00:51:05.880 vaccines,
00:51:06.840 and I'm
00:51:07.180 talking about
00:51:07.680 the COVID
00:51:09.940 vaccine,
00:51:11.020 what percentage
00:51:11.780 of adults
00:51:12.480 say that
00:51:13.040 they are
00:51:13.340 very effective
00:51:14.040 at preventing
00:51:14.960 infection,
00:51:16.480 preventing
00:51:16.960 the spread?
00:51:18.640 What percent?
00:51:20.560 Ah,
00:51:21.100 look at
00:51:21.520 you.
00:51:22.620 Oh,
00:51:23.000 you're so
00:51:23.600 smart.
00:51:24.660 Yeah,
00:51:25.340 it's 26%,
00:51:26.660 but I
00:51:27.780 think there's
00:51:28.160 a 1%,
00:51:29.040 at least
00:51:30.040 margin of
00:51:30.980 error there.
00:51:33.000 Yeah.
00:51:35.240 All right,
00:51:35.880 how about,
00:51:36.180 I'm going
00:51:36.380 to try
00:51:36.580 again.
00:51:38.780 How many
00:51:39.580 Democrats,
00:51:40.540 this is just
00:51:41.160 Democrats,
00:51:41.960 voters,
00:51:43.300 how many
00:51:44.000 are,
00:51:44.860 quote,
00:51:45.440 not at
00:51:46.120 all worried
00:51:46.720 about any
00:51:47.540 harm from
00:51:48.200 the vaccination
00:51:48.780 itself?
00:51:50.040 How many
00:51:50.720 Democrats are
00:51:51.760 completely
00:51:52.400 unworried
00:51:53.740 about the
00:51:55.220 vaccination
00:51:55.740 might have
00:51:56.180 some side
00:51:56.600 effects?
00:51:59.920 Wow.
00:52:02.400 26%
00:52:03.540 are not
00:52:04.140 worried at
00:52:04.580 all.
00:52:06.160 26%.
00:52:06.800 Some of
00:52:09.440 you were
00:52:09.740 answering the,
00:52:10.560 you know,
00:52:11.240 the obvious,
00:52:11.880 the 70,
00:52:12.780 75%.
00:52:13.880 Yeah,
00:52:14.720 but
00:52:14.920 congratulations
00:52:16.540 again.
00:52:17.500 I feel
00:52:18.140 that your
00:52:19.080 brilliance and
00:52:20.320 genius is
00:52:20.940 exceeded only
00:52:22.000 by your
00:52:22.360 sex appeal,
00:52:23.480 if I may
00:52:24.280 say that.
00:52:25.200 And again,
00:52:26.980 again,
00:52:28.340 how many
00:52:29.200 of you
00:52:29.500 thought it
00:52:29.920 was ridiculous
00:52:30.700 the first
00:52:31.880 time you
00:52:32.420 heard me
00:52:32.860 say that
00:52:34.520 in any
00:52:35.040 poll,
00:52:35.600 25% of
00:52:36.580 the public
00:52:36.960 will get
00:52:37.360 the wrong
00:52:37.740 answer
00:52:38.120 reliably?
00:52:39.940 Yeah,
00:52:41.740 you thought
00:52:42.100 I was
00:52:42.340 just like
00:52:42.840 spitballing
00:52:43.640 on that,
00:52:44.080 didn't you?
00:52:44.840 You didn't
00:52:45.420 think it
00:52:45.760 was going
00:52:46.000 to be
00:52:46.120 so consistent,
00:52:47.000 did you?
00:52:49.680 All right.
00:52:52.520 And how
00:52:53.140 about
00:52:53.580 reparations?
00:52:56.060 What
00:52:56.200 percentage
00:52:56.660 of the,
00:52:57.500 let's say,
00:52:59.660 let's say
00:53:00.160 of the total
00:53:00.700 public?
00:53:02.160 Now,
00:53:02.540 let's do
00:53:02.800 it by
00:53:03.180 party.
00:53:04.480 What
00:53:04.620 percentage
00:53:04.940 of Democrats,
00:53:06.120 and this
00:53:06.760 will be
00:53:07.500 harder to
00:53:08.060 guess,
00:53:08.760 what
00:53:08.960 percentage
00:53:09.260 of Democrats
00:53:09.880 support
00:53:10.340 reparations?
00:53:12.540 What do
00:53:13.100 you think?
00:53:15.240 The answer
00:53:15.960 is 60%.
00:53:16.920 This is
00:53:17.980 of the
00:53:18.520 population
00:53:19.600 in general.
00:53:20.520 60%.
00:53:21.000 How many
00:53:22.080 of you
00:53:22.280 knew that?
00:53:24.840 Was that
00:53:25.460 about what
00:53:25.940 you imagined?
00:53:27.160 I'm not
00:53:27.620 sure I
00:53:27.900 thought about
00:53:28.300 it too
00:53:28.540 much,
00:53:28.860 but I
00:53:30.140 don't know.
00:53:31.300 Not too
00:53:31.820 surprising.
00:53:33.280 All right.
00:53:36.580 36% of
00:53:38.640 voters
00:53:38.920 support the
00:53:39.620 California
00:53:40.120 plan.
00:53:41.580 You
00:53:42.000 know the
00:53:42.260 California
00:53:42.640 plan for
00:53:44.240 reparations?
00:53:45.300 The
00:53:45.600 California
00:53:45.980 plan for
00:53:46.440 reparations
00:53:46.900 is you
00:53:47.860 take
00:53:48.080 California,
00:53:48.760 a state
00:53:49.020 that never
00:53:49.420 had slavery,
00:53:50.540 and then
00:53:51.340 the state
00:53:51.760 that never
00:53:52.120 had slavery
00:53:52.680 will be
00:53:53.500 taxing a
00:53:54.960 little bit
00:53:55.240 extra the
00:53:56.320 people who
00:53:56.800 are not
00:53:57.200 involved in
00:53:57.740 any way with
00:53:58.300 slavery,
00:53:58.640 and then
00:53:59.500 they'll be
00:53:59.800 transferring that
00:54:00.580 to the
00:54:00.860 people who
00:54:01.300 were also
00:54:03.520 never slaves.
00:54:04.320 So that's
00:54:06.480 the plan.
00:54:07.660 But some
00:54:08.420 of those
00:54:08.660 people might
00:54:09.140 be related
00:54:09.740 to the
00:54:10.760 legacy of
00:54:11.260 slavery,
00:54:12.340 and so
00:54:12.560 that would
00:54:12.840 be their
00:54:13.140 argument for
00:54:13.860 reparations.
00:54:15.620 And,
00:54:16.780 yeah, as
00:54:19.080 you might
00:54:19.320 imagine,
00:54:19.880 it's divided
00:54:20.700 by party
00:54:21.260 affiliation,
00:54:23.240 just like
00:54:24.620 you think
00:54:24.940 it would be.
00:54:27.340 All right.
00:54:27.800 opinion
00:54:29.440 person
00:54:30.240 Liz Peek
00:54:31.140 wrote on
00:54:31.960 Fox website,
00:54:33.760 how many
00:54:34.060 of you
00:54:34.320 would agree
00:54:34.880 with this
00:54:35.260 opinion?
00:54:36.300 I'll just
00:54:36.620 read this
00:54:36.960 one paragraph.
00:54:39.140 So Liz
00:54:39.580 says the
00:54:40.300 midterms
00:54:40.940 were a
00:54:42.960 referendum
00:54:43.500 on the
00:54:44.140 increasing
00:54:44.740 unpopularity
00:54:45.920 of Mr.
00:54:46.540 Trump.
00:54:47.220 So she's
00:54:47.720 saying the
00:54:48.280 midterms
00:54:48.940 were not
00:54:49.360 about the
00:54:49.800 Democrats.
00:54:50.780 It was
00:54:51.440 mostly about
00:54:52.060 voting against
00:54:52.900 Trump.
00:54:53.680 That's her
00:54:54.220 take.
00:54:54.900 And she
00:54:55.200 says,
00:54:55.560 yes,
00:54:56.200 he still
00:54:56.600 has a
00:54:56.920 lock on
00:54:57.340 some
00:54:57.660 declining
00:54:58.200 portion
00:54:58.600 of the
00:54:58.920 Republican
00:54:59.340 Party.
00:55:00.360 And yes,
00:55:01.320 the Trump
00:55:02.860 always voters
00:55:03.560 may refuse
00:55:04.180 to back
00:55:04.640 anyone else
00:55:05.260 ever.
00:55:06.100 That is
00:55:06.580 unfortunate,
00:55:07.300 because Trump's
00:55:07.980 greatest achievement
00:55:08.800 was bringing
00:55:09.840 hundreds of
00:55:10.540 thousands,
00:55:11.500 maybe millions
00:55:12.180 of people
00:55:12.640 into our
00:55:13.120 political
00:55:13.560 process
00:55:14.260 for the
00:55:15.060 first time.
00:55:16.860 Now,
00:55:17.480 the problem
00:55:17.780 is that
00:55:18.800 she thinks
00:55:19.400 that Trump
00:55:20.580 is now a
00:55:21.180 drag on
00:55:21.860 Republicans,
00:55:23.440 because Trump
00:55:24.360 won't bring
00:55:24.980 in new
00:55:25.440 Republicans,
00:55:26.240 but he
00:55:26.960 might bring
00:55:27.460 in more
00:55:28.640 heat from
00:55:29.500 people who
00:55:30.000 want to
00:55:30.520 make sure
00:55:31.080 he doesn't
00:55:31.460 get back
00:55:31.860 in there.
00:55:32.800 What do
00:55:33.080 you think?
00:55:33.900 Do you
00:55:34.340 think Trump
00:55:35.260 is now a
00:55:36.040 plus or a
00:55:36.960 negative to
00:55:38.620 Republicans in
00:55:40.300 general?
00:55:41.400 And she's
00:55:41.940 riffing off
00:55:42.580 the fact that
00:55:43.900 Herschel Walker
00:55:44.640 lost.
00:55:45.780 If Herschel Walker
00:55:46.900 had won,
00:55:48.020 that would have
00:55:48.500 been a stronger
00:55:49.080 argument for
00:55:49.860 Trump.
00:55:51.060 I think I'm
00:55:55.720 interested just
00:55:56.420 that the
00:55:56.720 argument has
00:55:57.280 been made,
00:55:58.480 meaning that
00:55:59.200 Fox News
00:55:59.920 carried this
00:56:00.580 opinion piece
00:56:01.280 that's
00:56:02.300 unambiguously
00:56:03.340 anti-Trump,
00:56:05.060 and so
00:56:06.820 that's where
00:56:07.180 Fox News
00:56:07.700 is, which
00:56:08.300 means that's
00:56:08.800 where Murdoch
00:56:09.300 is.
00:56:11.560 No, I'm
00:56:12.160 not supporting
00:56:12.660 him.
00:56:13.400 Is that a
00:56:13.820 surprise?
00:56:14.860 I was just
00:56:15.620 asked if I
00:56:16.200 were supporting
00:56:16.720 Trump.
00:56:18.040 You all
00:56:18.580 know I'm
00:56:18.880 not, right?
00:56:19.340 I don't
00:56:22.040 support him
00:56:22.560 for age.
00:56:25.000 I don't
00:56:25.760 support him
00:56:26.280 as the
00:56:26.960 best person
00:56:27.860 who could
00:56:28.260 do the
00:56:28.580 job.
00:56:29.740 Yeah, I
00:56:30.080 don't support
00:56:30.580 him on
00:56:30.860 fentanyl.
00:56:31.580 I don't
00:56:31.840 think he
00:56:32.160 did a good
00:56:32.580 job there.
00:56:34.320 He couldn't
00:56:35.040 even get
00:56:35.400 TikTok banned.
00:56:38.120 Yeah, so
00:56:38.720 there's lots
00:56:39.460 of stuff.
00:56:40.360 I'm generally
00:56:41.160 in favor of
00:56:42.520 kind of a
00:56:45.180 seesaw between
00:56:46.020 the two
00:56:46.420 parties.
00:56:47.600 I think
00:56:48.340 that one
00:56:48.720 party gets
00:56:49.220 in there
00:56:49.500 and does
00:56:49.780 some good
00:56:50.120 things,
00:56:50.580 especially
00:56:50.940 for their
00:56:51.380 base.
00:56:52.160 The next
00:56:52.640 party gets
00:56:53.120 in there
00:56:53.400 and does
00:56:53.640 a few
00:56:53.880 other
00:56:54.080 things.
00:56:55.020 But the
00:56:55.440 things that
00:56:55.860 are good
00:56:56.120 for everybody
00:56:56.760 tend to
00:56:57.220 last.
00:56:59.480 It's a
00:57:00.060 messy process,
00:57:01.680 but I
00:57:02.160 kind of like
00:57:02.820 going back
00:57:03.520 and forth a
00:57:04.080 little bit.
00:57:04.880 A little
00:57:05.240 bit.
00:57:06.040 I think it
00:57:06.600 helps.
00:57:08.020 All right.
00:57:09.640 There is a
00:57:10.540 really interesting
00:57:11.720 article.
00:57:12.500 If you look
00:57:12.960 at the
00:57:13.380 Timcast
00:57:14.020 website,
00:57:15.240 you can find
00:57:15.840 it.
00:57:16.040 And
00:57:17.200 apparently
00:57:17.620 after
00:57:18.160 Ye and
00:57:19.040 Fuentes
00:57:20.260 were on
00:57:22.000 Tim's
00:57:23.040 show,
00:57:25.060 Tim Poole's
00:57:26.560 show,
00:57:27.160 and after
00:57:27.660 he walked
00:57:28.080 out,
00:57:28.520 he left
00:57:29.160 the interview
00:57:29.600 early,
00:57:30.380 one of the
00:57:31.200 Tim Poole
00:57:32.320 associates there
00:57:33.360 followed Ye
00:57:34.460 and got a lot
00:57:36.400 more interaction
00:57:37.060 with him and
00:57:37.520 then actually
00:57:37.980 met with him
00:57:38.480 in L.A.
00:57:39.820 and interviewed
00:57:40.780 him at length
00:57:41.520 and then
00:57:41.920 talks about
00:57:42.420 it.
00:57:44.040 Here's the
00:57:45.340 two things
00:57:45.940 you need to
00:57:46.340 know about
00:57:46.700 it.
00:57:47.360 Number one,
00:57:48.360 it's a
00:57:48.820 really long
00:57:49.520 piece,
00:57:50.860 and it's
00:57:51.940 the longest
00:57:52.540 piece I've
00:57:53.400 read completely
00:57:54.160 till the end
00:57:54.860 in a long
00:57:55.760 time,
00:57:56.760 because it
00:57:57.360 never got
00:57:57.860 boring.
00:57:59.640 I kept
00:58:00.460 waiting.
00:58:01.940 Pretty much
00:58:02.560 everything I
00:58:03.160 read, I
00:58:03.740 skim.
00:58:05.500 Pretty much
00:58:06.300 everything,
00:58:07.200 right?
00:58:07.920 But I didn't
00:58:08.500 skim it because
00:58:09.040 it was so
00:58:09.400 well written.
00:58:09.860 So kudos
00:58:11.120 to the
00:58:11.800 writer.
00:58:13.200 So it's
00:58:13.500 just good
00:58:14.100 writing,
00:58:14.960 right?
00:58:15.360 So if you
00:58:15.820 want to just
00:58:16.200 see good
00:58:17.020 writing,
00:58:18.020 read it for
00:58:18.480 that,
00:58:19.340 because it's
00:58:19.780 so rare.
00:58:20.880 And just
00:58:21.460 tell yourself
00:58:22.200 how long
00:58:23.480 you stayed
00:58:24.820 with the
00:58:25.180 article without
00:58:26.800 bailing out
00:58:27.980 me.
00:58:28.100 I'll give
00:58:28.360 the name
00:58:28.720 of the
00:58:29.040 writer.
00:58:31.260 It was
00:58:31.620 Shane
00:58:32.260 Cashman,
00:58:33.380 who apparently
00:58:34.020 is or was
00:58:35.280 a professor
00:58:35.800 at some
00:58:36.220 point.
00:58:36.800 So it's
00:58:37.080 somebody who's
00:58:38.100 got some
00:58:38.440 good communication
00:58:39.820 skills.
00:58:41.680 Yes.
00:58:42.540 He was
00:58:43.220 raised culturally
00:58:44.920 Jewish, I
00:58:45.680 think.
00:58:46.620 I think his
00:58:47.080 mother was
00:58:47.540 Jewish, he
00:58:48.000 says, which
00:58:48.620 I think
00:58:48.940 technically makes
00:58:51.040 you Jewish.
00:58:51.640 I don't think
00:58:51.980 he's like an
00:58:53.100 observing type.
00:58:57.020 All right.
00:58:57.480 So here are
00:58:58.020 some of the
00:58:58.440 things that
00:58:59.100 came out of
00:58:59.640 that that I
00:59:00.360 thought were
00:59:00.740 interesting.
00:59:02.400 Number one,
00:59:04.380 Ye does not
00:59:05.180 appear crazy at
00:59:06.340 all.
00:59:06.600 somebody who
00:59:08.480 spent some
00:59:09.060 good time
00:59:10.160 with him
00:59:10.500 when he
00:59:11.300 was not
00:59:11.660 performing.
00:59:12.700 Because when
00:59:13.320 he's on
00:59:13.640 an interview,
00:59:14.560 he's
00:59:14.860 performing.
00:59:16.600 But when
00:59:17.160 you see him
00:59:17.580 completely outside
00:59:18.380 of the public
00:59:18.880 domain, you
00:59:19.520 get to see
00:59:19.920 if he's
00:59:20.180 crazy.
00:59:21.460 And there
00:59:22.040 wasn't any.
00:59:23.460 So he
00:59:24.020 spent enough
00:59:24.480 time with
00:59:24.940 him to
00:59:25.940 find out if
00:59:26.580 any crazy
00:59:27.220 shit was
00:59:27.640 coming out
00:59:28.040 of him,
00:59:28.320 and there
00:59:28.500 wasn't.
00:59:28.780 that actually
00:59:30.600 Ye's
00:59:33.100 sort of
00:59:34.280 approach
00:59:34.800 does have
00:59:36.000 an internal
00:59:36.600 logic to
00:59:37.340 it, and
00:59:39.080 you could
00:59:39.520 love it or
00:59:40.620 hate it, but
00:59:42.000 it's not
00:59:42.320 crazy.
00:59:43.500 It's not
00:59:43.920 crazy.
00:59:45.100 Now, it
00:59:45.620 takes some
00:59:45.980 explaining how
00:59:47.100 that's not
00:59:47.600 crazy.
00:59:49.420 But there's
00:59:50.200 one part that
00:59:50.960 I just
00:59:51.260 loved.
00:59:53.060 Ye is
00:59:53.500 completely
00:59:54.000 aware that
00:59:55.420 his
00:59:55.640 communication
00:59:56.160 director,
00:59:57.180 Fuentes,
00:59:57.540 is the
00:59:58.920 most
00:59:59.460 disliked
01:00:00.220 person,
01:00:01.240 like one
01:00:01.600 of the
01:00:01.760 most
01:00:01.940 disliked
01:00:02.760 persons on
01:00:04.460 the internet
01:00:04.800 who you
01:00:05.280 wouldn't even
01:00:05.620 want to
01:00:05.920 interact with,
01:00:06.680 right?
01:00:07.200 Now, that's
01:00:07.860 not my
01:00:08.400 opinion.
01:00:09.320 That would
01:00:09.820 be sort
01:00:10.340 of like an
01:00:10.740 internet
01:00:11.100 opinion of
01:00:12.140 him, which
01:00:12.920 I'm sure
01:00:13.220 he'd agree
01:00:13.620 with.
01:00:15.380 Now, Ye
01:00:15.900 describes
01:00:17.420 himself as
01:00:18.060 one of the
01:00:18.380 most popular
01:00:19.020 people in
01:00:19.600 the world,
01:00:20.440 and certainly
01:00:21.640 somebody that
01:00:22.260 the most
01:00:22.680 people would
01:00:23.160 want to
01:00:23.500 talk to,
01:00:24.500 all right?
01:00:25.280 The most
01:00:25.740 people would
01:00:26.200 want to get
01:00:26.580 to Ye.
01:00:26.940 So, Ye has
01:00:28.260 made it so
01:00:28.780 that to
01:00:29.080 talk to
01:00:29.440 the most
01:00:29.880 interesting
01:00:31.220 person that
01:00:31.820 you do
01:00:32.160 want to
01:00:32.460 talk to,
01:00:33.060 Ye, you
01:00:34.020 have to go
01:00:34.520 through the
01:00:35.640 worst person
01:00:36.300 in the world
01:00:36.760 to get
01:00:37.100 there.
01:00:38.500 And he
01:00:39.020 did that
01:00:39.400 intentionally.
01:00:41.580 Now, how
01:00:42.500 much do you
01:00:42.980 love that?
01:00:44.420 Forget about
01:00:45.100 what you think
01:00:45.560 about Fuentes
01:00:46.120 for a moment.
01:00:47.420 Just think
01:00:47.860 about the
01:00:48.200 system.
01:00:49.420 Just think
01:00:49.800 about the
01:00:50.140 fact that he
01:00:50.560 did that
01:00:50.940 intentionally.
01:00:52.440 Now, you
01:00:52.800 tell me that's
01:00:53.400 not art.
01:00:54.980 That's art.
01:00:55.700 That is art.
01:00:58.160 Everything he
01:00:58.860 does is
01:01:00.540 sometimes
01:01:01.100 functional,
01:01:02.660 often functional
01:01:03.540 because he's
01:01:04.120 successful.
01:01:05.280 But while he's
01:01:06.240 being functional,
01:01:07.360 it's never not
01:01:08.020 art.
01:01:09.140 It's still art.
01:01:10.660 That's who he
01:01:11.340 is.
01:01:11.760 It just
01:01:12.360 follows him.
01:01:15.120 Everything he
01:01:15.940 touches becomes
01:01:16.920 art.
01:01:17.340 So that's
01:01:21.300 interesting.
01:01:25.040 And then
01:01:27.060 Fuentes, I
01:01:27.980 think, gave
01:01:28.580 some more
01:01:28.920 information about
01:01:29.760 why he and
01:01:31.080 Ye could get
01:01:32.240 together in the
01:01:32.840 first place.
01:01:33.640 Have you ever
01:01:34.080 wondered about
01:01:34.620 that?
01:01:36.180 Even if you
01:01:37.040 accept that
01:01:38.380 Ye is
01:01:39.240 eclectic and
01:01:40.400 eccentric or
01:01:41.320 crazy or
01:01:41.980 whatever you
01:01:42.360 want to say,
01:01:43.160 so you could
01:01:43.640 make an
01:01:44.020 excuse, you
01:01:45.520 could kind of
01:01:45.960 understand how
01:01:46.620 Ye would
01:01:47.100 want to work
01:01:47.860 with anybody,
01:01:49.420 basically.
01:01:50.220 Because he does
01:01:51.020 refer to them
01:01:51.780 as his little
01:01:53.040 rogue group of
01:01:54.820 outcasts or
01:01:55.980 something.
01:01:56.820 But why would
01:01:57.560 Fuentes want to
01:01:58.440 work with Ye?
01:01:58.920 Do you think
01:02:01.400 that Fuentes'
01:02:02.300 audience is
01:02:04.160 like really
01:02:05.220 happy that he's
01:02:07.380 supporting a
01:02:08.320 black guy for
01:02:08.940 president?
01:02:09.260 I don't know.
01:02:12.800 I'm kind of
01:02:13.560 curious about
01:02:14.100 that.
01:02:15.360 But what is
01:02:16.440 it that brought
01:02:16.920 them together?
01:02:18.960 What is it that
01:02:19.760 brought them
01:02:20.120 together?
01:02:21.600 Now, some of
01:02:22.420 you might say,
01:02:23.060 well, you know,
01:02:24.260 famous people and
01:02:25.500 they both hate
01:02:26.520 Jews is what you're
01:02:27.340 going to say,
01:02:27.700 right?
01:02:28.320 Somebody's saying
01:02:28.920 that.
01:02:29.680 Maybe.
01:02:30.540 Maybe.
01:02:31.160 But when they
01:02:31.780 talk about it,
01:02:32.480 they talk about
01:02:33.100 making the country
01:02:33.940 a Christian
01:02:34.660 country.
01:02:35.100 And I think
01:02:36.660 that at least
01:02:38.680 Fuentes said,
01:02:39.600 and maybe Ye
01:02:40.220 believes this,
01:02:40.800 I don't know,
01:02:41.800 that you
01:02:42.720 shouldn't be
01:02:43.280 running for
01:02:43.900 office unless
01:02:44.820 you're a
01:02:45.220 Christian.
01:02:46.720 And that
01:02:47.520 they'd like to
01:02:48.100 see even the
01:02:48.640 Constitution
01:02:49.320 maybe tweaked
01:02:51.120 to say that
01:02:52.280 office holders
01:02:53.000 need to be
01:02:53.680 Christian.
01:02:55.700 Now,
01:02:56.920 I'm sorry,
01:02:59.120 that's not the
01:02:59.640 country I live
01:03:00.360 in.
01:03:02.640 I'm completely
01:03:03.640 okay with our
01:03:04.980 system being
01:03:06.080 informed by
01:03:07.280 Christians and
01:03:08.740 informed by
01:03:09.600 Christianity.
01:03:10.660 That seems to
01:03:11.320 have worked.
01:03:12.580 It works more
01:03:13.400 than it doesn't
01:03:13.960 work.
01:03:15.000 But as soon as
01:03:15.860 you say that
01:03:16.480 Scott can't run
01:03:18.060 for office in
01:03:18.760 the country he
01:03:19.320 lives in,
01:03:20.440 no, Ye,
01:03:21.040 you can't be
01:03:21.620 my president.
01:03:23.120 I'm sorry,
01:03:24.280 you cannot be
01:03:25.060 my president if
01:03:26.500 your platform is
01:03:27.360 I can't run
01:03:28.040 for office because
01:03:29.160 I don't believe
01:03:29.800 in your version
01:03:30.680 of religion.
01:03:32.180 No.
01:03:33.140 No, that is
01:03:34.000 completely
01:03:34.520 disqualifying.
01:03:36.100 But you
01:03:36.440 know what I
01:03:36.760 love?
01:03:38.240 I love the
01:03:39.040 fact that they're
01:03:39.620 sort of cheerful
01:03:40.380 warriors and the
01:03:42.160 fact that they're
01:03:42.740 fighting for this
01:03:43.500 thing and they're
01:03:44.800 making their
01:03:45.260 argument in a free
01:03:46.960 market of ideas and
01:03:49.220 it's interesting.
01:03:50.860 I find it
01:03:51.440 interesting.
01:03:52.820 I'm never going to
01:03:53.760 agree with it,
01:03:55.040 but I like,
01:03:56.040 I like, you know,
01:03:57.260 being exposed to the
01:03:58.760 thought process,
01:04:00.100 et cetera.
01:04:00.440 I like taking my
01:04:02.200 mind someplace it
01:04:03.160 wasn't before.
01:04:04.440 I never really
01:04:05.100 thought about that.
01:04:08.540 Now, I believe
01:04:11.820 also that Ye said
01:04:13.020 during this interview
01:04:13.900 that he thinks the
01:04:15.720 Jews should forgive
01:04:17.000 Hitler.
01:04:19.640 Now, that's
01:04:20.320 something he didn't
01:04:20.940 say in public,
01:04:21.880 but he said it to
01:04:22.580 somebody who was,
01:04:23.280 you know,
01:04:23.680 obviously going to
01:04:24.400 write about it.
01:04:25.000 But, the Jews
01:04:27.480 should forgive
01:04:29.160 Hitler.
01:04:35.440 Now, that's
01:04:36.360 pretty provocative,
01:04:38.020 but it also
01:04:39.040 perfectly captures
01:04:40.360 his philosophy.
01:04:42.480 His philosophy,
01:04:43.920 I believe,
01:04:45.220 is that if he
01:04:46.020 were a Jew,
01:04:46.700 he would forgive
01:04:47.460 Hitler.
01:04:49.040 Because forgiving
01:04:50.100 is just built into
01:04:51.100 everything he's
01:04:52.800 about.
01:04:53.120 Now, that's
01:04:56.040 interesting, isn't
01:04:56.640 it?
01:04:57.100 Because that
01:04:57.720 frames it a little
01:04:58.660 differently,
01:04:59.140 doesn't it?
01:05:01.740 Imagine the
01:05:02.420 argument was,
01:05:03.420 it started out
01:05:04.160 with,
01:05:04.740 Ye complimented
01:05:06.080 Hitler.
01:05:07.460 He didn't
01:05:08.100 compliment the
01:05:08.780 Holocaust.
01:05:10.000 He said he
01:05:10.600 liked some things
01:05:11.500 about Hitler,
01:05:12.240 like building
01:05:12.780 roads and stuff.
01:05:13.560 It was sort of
01:05:14.020 a funny argument.
01:05:15.720 But,
01:05:16.260 but did he
01:05:21.280 say Hitler is
01:05:22.440 overall good?
01:05:23.240 No, of course
01:05:23.740 not.
01:05:24.520 Forgiveness is
01:05:25.300 not about the
01:05:26.020 person being
01:05:26.780 worthy of the
01:05:27.700 forgiveness.
01:05:28.600 It's about you.
01:05:29.960 It's about the
01:05:30.940 forgiver.
01:05:32.600 But now,
01:05:33.100 suppose Ye
01:05:34.720 takes his
01:05:35.300 argument all
01:05:36.860 the way from
01:05:37.620 Hitler had
01:05:38.960 some good
01:05:39.400 points,
01:05:40.320 all the way
01:05:41.360 to the Jews
01:05:42.200 should forgive
01:05:42.920 Hitler.
01:05:44.580 Do you see
01:05:45.300 what that does
01:05:45.860 to your brain?
01:05:48.780 Do you see
01:05:49.460 what that does?
01:05:50.080 this is like
01:05:50.960 Overton
01:05:51.460 window,
01:05:53.060 just perfectly
01:05:53.780 used.
01:05:54.740 It's hard to
01:05:55.660 go back to
01:05:56.760 your last
01:05:57.220 opinion,
01:05:58.020 because the
01:05:58.640 new one's just
01:05:59.180 more interesting.
01:06:00.780 As soon as he
01:06:01.800 says the Jews
01:06:02.580 should forgive
01:06:03.180 Hitler,
01:06:03.980 you're like,
01:06:04.700 okay, I cannot
01:06:05.540 not think about
01:06:06.500 that.
01:06:07.320 And I already
01:06:08.220 completely have
01:06:09.220 forgotten what
01:06:10.640 you said about
01:06:11.200 Hitler's good
01:06:11.820 points,
01:06:12.380 because now
01:06:13.160 you've gone so
01:06:13.860 much further
01:06:14.420 that now we
01:06:15.540 have to think
01:06:16.020 about this.
01:06:17.240 And then you
01:06:17.600 think about it
01:06:18.120 and you say,
01:06:19.420 oh, wait a
01:06:19.980 minute, that's
01:06:20.560 just a Christian
01:06:21.220 principle.
01:06:23.560 And then all
01:06:24.280 of a sudden
01:06:24.640 you're like,
01:06:25.340 what the hell
01:06:26.000 is Ye doing
01:06:26.540 to us?
01:06:27.760 It's just a
01:06:28.500 Christian principle.
01:06:31.980 Yeah, it's
01:06:32.940 an attempt at a
01:06:33.960 high road.
01:06:35.380 Because what,
01:06:38.660 I don't know
01:06:39.540 that he thinks
01:06:39.940 it's a practical
01:06:40.680 thing, but as
01:06:41.540 a philosophical
01:06:42.260 point, it gets
01:06:43.600 you past the
01:06:44.640 controversial stuff
01:06:45.700 and onto
01:06:46.520 something that's
01:06:47.120 actually an
01:06:47.580 interesting question,
01:06:49.120 no matter where
01:06:50.140 you are on it.
01:06:51.460 Now, here's
01:06:51.940 another thing
01:06:52.420 that I don't
01:06:52.860 know if you
01:06:53.260 caught.
01:06:55.660 And he said
01:06:56.480 it fairly
01:06:57.460 clearly to
01:06:58.960 this reporter,
01:07:00.400 well, to
01:07:01.480 Shane.
01:07:05.460 What do you
01:07:06.120 think Ye's
01:07:07.120 opinion of
01:07:07.980 Jewish people
01:07:08.640 is, based
01:07:09.220 on what he
01:07:09.620 said?
01:07:10.800 Based on what
01:07:11.500 he said, what
01:07:12.380 would you say
01:07:12.800 his opinion is
01:07:13.700 of Jewish
01:07:14.180 people?
01:07:14.620 Go.
01:07:15.700 Give me
01:07:16.980 your summary
01:07:17.560 of Ye's
01:07:18.580 opinion of
01:07:19.240 Jewish
01:07:19.500 people, based
01:07:20.600 on what he
01:07:21.000 said.
01:07:25.420 You say
01:07:26.060 negative, but
01:07:26.880 give me the
01:07:27.440 example.
01:07:29.020 What's the
01:07:30.000 negative thing
01:07:30.620 he said,
01:07:31.840 specifically?
01:07:35.640 Well, he
01:07:36.260 said he
01:07:36.680 loves them,
01:07:37.200 and he is
01:07:37.560 one.
01:07:38.920 Okay?
01:07:40.880 He said
01:07:41.580 that he was
01:07:42.080 going to go
01:07:42.460 death gun on
01:07:43.260 the Jews,
01:07:43.800 right?
01:07:43.980 So he
01:07:44.980 said he
01:07:45.260 was going
01:07:45.540 to be
01:07:47.240 aggressive
01:07:47.800 against the
01:07:49.820 Jews.
01:07:52.080 What's that
01:07:52.720 mean?
01:07:53.960 So here's
01:07:54.920 what happens
01:07:55.320 when you see
01:07:55.840 his context.
01:07:57.420 So when he
01:07:57.920 talks about the
01:07:58.680 Jewish community,
01:07:59.800 it's all
01:08:00.460 compliments.
01:08:02.020 And that was
01:08:02.460 always the
01:08:02.860 context.
01:08:03.880 The context
01:08:04.700 is that the
01:08:06.560 Jewish community
01:08:07.360 is, he
01:08:08.560 actually says it
01:08:09.200 directly, smarter
01:08:10.760 than average,
01:08:12.160 more successful,
01:08:13.800 and that he
01:08:14.400 would like to
01:08:14.880 emulate some
01:08:15.900 of their
01:08:16.160 methods, because
01:08:17.400 he keeps
01:08:17.820 running into
01:08:18.520 successful Jewish
01:08:20.300 people who
01:08:21.560 are, you
01:08:22.200 know, powerful
01:08:23.600 enough that he's
01:08:24.340 not getting what
01:08:24.940 he wants out of
01:08:25.620 his interactions.
01:08:26.780 So he would
01:08:27.520 like to be more
01:08:29.100 like them.
01:08:30.980 Pretty
01:08:31.420 specifically, he's
01:08:32.320 saying that.
01:08:33.120 He would like to
01:08:33.740 learn from what
01:08:34.480 they do, and be
01:08:36.140 more their equal
01:08:37.140 in business.
01:08:40.900 Is that
01:08:41.500 terrible?
01:08:43.580 Is that
01:08:44.180 terrible?
01:08:45.680 That he
01:08:46.080 sees them as
01:08:47.140 above his
01:08:47.880 current ability,
01:08:49.580 and also
01:08:50.500 ability of other
01:08:51.320 people, and he
01:08:52.600 would like to
01:08:53.080 rise to that
01:08:53.860 level, so that
01:08:55.140 he's an equal
01:08:55.900 force in the
01:08:57.260 marketplace.
01:09:02.580 So I see
01:09:03.340 spin away.
01:09:04.220 Am I
01:09:04.520 spinning?
01:09:04.800 I'm telling
01:09:07.160 you what he
01:09:07.580 said.
01:09:08.200 Is that
01:09:08.540 spinning?
01:09:11.860 I don't
01:09:12.420 know.
01:09:13.240 Now, he
01:09:13.960 said DEFCON,
01:09:14.740 right.
01:09:15.320 What he meant
01:09:15.800 was DEFCON,
01:09:17.240 but what he
01:09:18.760 meant was he
01:09:19.340 was sort of
01:09:20.000 going to war
01:09:20.820 against what
01:09:22.340 he called,
01:09:22.860 you know, the
01:09:23.280 Jews.
01:09:24.520 But what did
01:09:25.340 he mean?
01:09:26.780 His detailed
01:09:28.080 explanation is
01:09:29.480 all compliments.
01:09:31.540 Is there
01:09:31.920 such a thing
01:09:32.500 as a racist
01:09:33.320 who believes
01:09:34.400 that a group
01:09:36.180 is better
01:09:36.620 than his
01:09:37.000 own people?
01:09:39.360 Is that a
01:09:39.960 thing?
01:09:40.620 Can you be
01:09:41.140 an anti-Semite
01:09:42.140 by saying that
01:09:43.400 Jewish people
01:09:44.040 are superior
01:09:44.820 to you, and
01:09:46.400 maybe other
01:09:46.840 people as
01:09:47.360 well?
01:09:48.420 Because that's
01:09:48.800 what he says.
01:09:50.220 I mean, he
01:09:50.520 says it very
01:09:51.100 directly.
01:09:52.160 He's not even
01:09:52.920 beating around
01:09:53.400 the bush.
01:09:54.360 They're more
01:09:54.840 successful, they're
01:09:55.840 smarter, they're
01:09:56.980 killing it in
01:09:57.660 business.
01:09:58.180 I keep bumping
01:09:58.840 into them and
01:09:59.760 not getting what
01:10:00.380 I want.
01:10:00.920 I need to raise
01:10:01.680 my power
01:10:02.200 level up
01:10:03.520 to their
01:10:03.900 level.
01:10:04.520 Maybe I
01:10:04.860 can learn
01:10:05.180 something from
01:10:05.740 them.
01:10:06.680 And I'm
01:10:07.180 going to go
01:10:07.500 hard at
01:10:07.880 this.
01:10:08.200 I'm going to
01:10:08.720 fighten, as
01:10:09.880 he would say,
01:10:10.360 fighten the
01:10:10.860 Jews.
01:10:11.760 And then the
01:10:12.940 corollary
01:10:13.540 argument is,
01:10:15.340 can he as
01:10:16.140 a free person
01:10:16.900 in the United
01:10:17.440 States speak
01:10:19.320 sloppily about
01:10:21.220 his own
01:10:21.660 personal opinion?
01:10:23.100 Because I
01:10:23.720 think it's
01:10:24.100 sloppy to say
01:10:25.700 the Jews.
01:10:26.740 Would you
01:10:27.120 agree?
01:10:28.060 That's just
01:10:28.540 sloppy.
01:10:28.880 But does
01:10:30.540 he have the
01:10:30.880 right to be
01:10:31.320 sloppy?
01:10:32.300 He wasn't
01:10:33.000 trying to
01:10:33.420 hurt anybody.
01:10:34.760 And language
01:10:35.300 does have a
01:10:36.100 risk, no
01:10:36.660 matter what
01:10:37.400 you're saying.
01:10:37.980 It just
01:10:38.340 seems to
01:10:38.660 always have
01:10:38.980 a risk.
01:10:40.540 I don't
01:10:40.840 know.
01:10:41.520 It's an
01:10:42.040 interesting
01:10:42.400 question.
01:10:43.540 I think he
01:10:44.340 has a right
01:10:44.840 to be sloppy.
01:10:46.720 And you
01:10:47.140 have a right
01:10:47.700 to react to
01:10:49.300 that sloppiness
01:10:50.080 in a negative
01:10:50.760 way.
01:10:52.720 I don't
01:10:53.300 see a big
01:10:53.740 problem.
01:10:57.140 Yeah.
01:10:57.580 Because the
01:10:58.960 thing is that
01:10:59.540 he also
01:10:59.940 consistently
01:11:00.680 speaks of
01:11:01.820 black people
01:11:03.220 and other
01:11:04.060 people the
01:11:04.840 same way.
01:11:05.780 He uses the
01:11:06.680 same level of
01:11:07.520 sloppiness to
01:11:09.080 talk about
01:11:09.940 everything.
01:11:13.020 Basically
01:11:13.340 everything.
01:11:14.080 White people
01:11:14.880 matter.
01:11:15.860 He talks about
01:11:16.760 groups like
01:11:17.320 they're all
01:11:18.120 one thing.
01:11:20.280 Now should
01:11:20.720 he?
01:11:21.500 I don't
01:11:21.860 know.
01:11:22.940 I don't
01:11:23.300 know.
01:11:23.720 I don't
01:11:23.980 have an
01:11:24.240 opinion on
01:11:24.700 that.
01:11:25.600 But if
01:11:26.660 you think
01:11:27.120 that he's
01:11:28.100 insulting a
01:11:29.000 group because
01:11:30.380 he speaks to
01:11:31.040 them as a
01:11:31.560 whole, that
01:11:33.080 doesn't hold
01:11:33.620 up because he
01:11:34.340 speaks of
01:11:34.740 every group
01:11:35.220 including his
01:11:35.860 own as a
01:11:36.300 whole.
01:11:36.880 It's simply
01:11:37.380 the way he
01:11:37.800 talks.
01:11:38.820 And if you
01:11:39.220 said, well,
01:11:39.800 but he's also
01:11:40.280 insulting them,
01:11:41.380 that's different.
01:11:42.460 You can speak
01:11:43.140 about your own
01:11:43.720 group as a
01:11:44.180 whole if you're
01:11:44.640 not insulting
01:11:45.240 them.
01:11:46.080 But don't
01:11:46.580 talk about
01:11:46.960 somebody else's
01:11:47.740 group and
01:11:48.120 then insult
01:11:48.620 them.
01:11:49.860 But he
01:11:50.260 didn't.
01:11:51.460 He
01:11:51.680 complimented
01:11:52.280 them.
01:11:54.520 I don't
01:11:54.800 know.
01:11:54.880 Now, if
01:11:56.940 I were
01:11:57.280 Jewish, would
01:11:57.920 I be saying
01:11:59.320 what I'm
01:11:59.640 saying now?
01:12:01.040 Do you
01:12:01.280 think I
01:12:01.620 would have
01:12:02.640 this view of
01:12:03.220 things if I
01:12:03.760 were Jewish?
01:12:04.980 No fucking
01:12:05.800 way.
01:12:07.180 No fucking
01:12:08.040 way.
01:12:09.200 No.
01:12:10.360 No.
01:12:11.460 You know
01:12:11.840 what I would
01:12:12.200 feel if I
01:12:12.640 were Jewish?
01:12:13.840 Fuck that
01:12:14.560 guy.
01:12:15.920 Fuck that
01:12:16.640 guy hard.
01:12:18.120 Fuck him
01:12:18.720 for putting
01:12:19.160 me at
01:12:19.940 greater risk.
01:12:21.540 Fuck him
01:12:21.960 for making
01:12:22.500 me think about
01:12:23.140 the Holocaust
01:12:23.700 one more
01:12:24.780 time.
01:12:25.760 Fuck him
01:12:26.380 for saying
01:12:26.780 he likes
01:12:27.200 the Hitler.
01:12:27.840 Fuck him
01:12:28.360 completely if
01:12:29.700 I were
01:12:29.920 Jewish.
01:12:33.600 But why
01:12:35.860 do I have
01:12:36.680 empathy for
01:12:39.100 my beloved
01:12:41.100 fellow Jewish
01:12:42.820 citizens?
01:12:44.200 Why do I
01:12:44.900 have so much
01:12:45.380 empathy for
01:12:46.040 how they
01:12:47.260 should feel
01:12:47.740 in that
01:12:48.060 situation?
01:12:48.640 Because I
01:12:48.900 would feel
01:12:49.200 exactly the
01:12:49.760 same way.
01:12:50.080 But why
01:12:51.120 don't we
01:12:51.440 extend that
01:12:51.980 to Ye,
01:12:53.740 who's had
01:12:54.240 a bunch
01:12:55.640 of individuals
01:12:57.140 he's had a
01:12:59.060 hard time
01:12:59.540 with, and
01:13:00.820 he's just
01:13:01.320 sort of
01:13:01.640 generalizing
01:13:02.240 them because
01:13:03.280 he's speaking
01:13:03.820 sloppy.
01:13:06.360 Why don't
01:13:07.220 we understand
01:13:07.980 why he is
01:13:08.840 also in an
01:13:09.740 emotionally
01:13:10.280 irrational
01:13:10.960 situation?
01:13:12.840 Because
01:13:13.420 something that
01:13:14.040 would trigger
01:13:14.560 anybody into
01:13:15.500 an irrational
01:13:16.420 mode happened
01:13:18.600 to him.
01:13:19.040 So the
01:13:20.680 same way I
01:13:21.180 say if I
01:13:21.640 were Jewish
01:13:22.160 I would be
01:13:22.760 reacting
01:13:23.240 essentially from
01:13:25.120 my emotional
01:13:26.820 defense,
01:13:28.960 protect myself,
01:13:30.720 you know,
01:13:30.980 any movement
01:13:31.920 in the wrong
01:13:32.420 direction has
01:13:33.000 to be stopped
01:13:33.500 immediately.
01:13:33.840 I would act
01:13:34.240 exactly like
01:13:34.940 that.
01:13:35.720 Of course
01:13:36.180 you would
01:13:36.580 too, right?
01:13:38.760 But if I
01:13:39.620 were Ye,
01:13:40.260 I would also
01:13:41.080 probably be
01:13:42.240 affected the
01:13:42.840 same way he
01:13:43.320 was, right?
01:13:44.560 If I ran
01:13:45.260 into one
01:13:46.080 demographic group
01:13:47.980 that kept
01:13:48.460 being my
01:13:49.460 obstacle,
01:13:50.620 I'd probably
01:13:51.580 have a bad
01:13:52.060 attitude about
01:13:52.740 them.
01:13:53.500 And I
01:13:53.900 allow that
01:13:54.400 people should
01:13:54.880 be able to
01:13:55.240 have that
01:13:55.600 attitude.
01:13:56.680 I don't
01:13:57.120 want to
01:13:57.360 agree with
01:13:57.800 it.
01:13:58.420 I don't
01:13:59.000 always want
01:13:59.580 to see it.
01:14:01.080 Maybe you
01:14:01.600 should keep
01:14:01.920 it to
01:14:02.140 yourself.
01:14:03.200 But can
01:14:03.720 we really
01:14:04.180 blame people
01:14:04.940 for having,
01:14:06.560 let's say
01:14:07.160 you've been
01:14:08.560 married three
01:14:09.140 times, and
01:14:10.540 you're either
01:14:11.020 male or
01:14:11.420 female, it
01:14:11.860 doesn't matter
01:14:12.200 in my
01:14:12.440 example, and
01:14:13.320 all three
01:14:13.760 times it was
01:14:14.440 just terrible.
01:14:15.360 You got
01:14:16.800 married three
01:14:17.300 times, they're
01:14:17.820 all disasters.
01:14:19.160 You don't
01:14:19.520 think you'd
01:14:19.960 have a bad
01:14:20.460 feeling about
01:14:21.100 either men if
01:14:22.060 you're a woman
01:14:22.560 or women if
01:14:23.360 you're a man?
01:14:24.380 I do.
01:14:25.440 And I would
01:14:25.840 allow you to
01:14:26.440 have that
01:14:26.760 opinion.
01:14:27.720 I would not
01:14:28.380 criticize you
01:14:29.840 for saying all
01:14:30.880 men are fucked
01:14:31.620 or all women
01:14:32.720 are terrible.
01:14:33.900 I would say
01:14:34.360 you earned
01:14:34.680 that.
01:14:35.560 That is exactly
01:14:36.460 what you should
01:14:37.080 be feeling because
01:14:38.280 you've had that
01:14:38.820 experience.
01:14:39.440 I'm not adopting
01:14:40.400 it.
01:14:41.000 I'm not going
01:14:41.460 to be influenced
01:14:41.960 by it.
01:14:42.420 But I get.
01:14:43.480 I allow you to
01:14:44.280 have that opinion.
01:14:45.360 So I allow
01:14:46.860 that the Jews
01:14:47.840 should treat
01:14:49.720 Ye unfairly.
01:14:51.740 And I'm fine
01:14:52.340 with that.
01:14:53.300 Because I would
01:14:54.120 do the same
01:14:54.540 fucking thing.
01:14:55.620 You put me in
01:14:56.400 that situation
01:14:57.040 and I would
01:14:57.760 not be looking
01:14:58.340 for fairness.
01:14:59.780 I'd be looking
01:15:00.440 to stop that
01:15:01.440 completely.
01:15:04.320 But Ye was
01:15:07.540 allegedly a
01:15:08.520 victim of some
01:15:10.420 business and
01:15:11.360 other personal
01:15:11.940 situations that
01:15:13.240 seemed to present
01:15:13.960 a pattern to him.
01:15:14.880 nobody including
01:15:16.480 Ye thinks that
01:15:17.320 pattern holds
01:15:18.000 to all Jewish
01:15:18.880 people.
01:15:20.120 Would you
01:15:20.500 agree with
01:15:20.900 that?
01:15:21.820 Do you think
01:15:22.460 that Ye would
01:15:22.980 say oh yes I
01:15:23.820 do believe that
01:15:25.300 all Jewish
01:15:26.080 people act the
01:15:27.120 same and are
01:15:27.620 the same?
01:15:28.440 Of course not.
01:15:30.120 So the thing
01:15:30.920 that you assume
01:15:31.560 that he's saying
01:15:32.320 nobody would
01:15:33.320 say.
01:15:33.900 He didn't say
01:15:34.840 it.
01:15:35.560 Nobody says
01:15:36.220 it.
01:15:37.060 Not a single
01:15:37.920 person on earth
01:15:38.620 thinks it.
01:15:39.920 It's a ridiculous
01:15:40.840 way to frame it.
01:15:43.360 So once you
01:15:45.900 realize he's not
01:15:46.620 trying to make
01:15:47.220 anybody like him
01:15:48.240 at the moment
01:15:49.040 he's insulted
01:15:50.880 everybody.
01:15:51.560 He's called
01:15:51.880 everybody by
01:15:52.800 their category
01:15:53.780 at least once.
01:15:55.640 It looks
01:15:56.360 different.
01:15:59.320 All right.
01:16:00.460 Here are the
01:16:00.940 people who should
01:16:01.660 be kicked off of
01:16:02.400 social media.
01:16:03.160 Here's a comment.
01:16:04.040 Scott is more
01:16:04.760 ridiculous every
01:16:05.600 day.
01:16:06.440 Fuck you.
01:16:08.240 Fuck your
01:16:09.080 stupid fucking
01:16:10.140 little asshole
01:16:11.060 comment.
01:16:11.520 Here's the
01:16:12.320 thing.
01:16:12.800 If you've
01:16:13.180 got a problem
01:16:13.720 with what I
01:16:14.340 say you've
01:16:14.800 got plenty of
01:16:15.440 time to
01:16:15.820 fucking say
01:16:16.460 it.
01:16:16.960 If you want
01:16:17.520 to just say
01:16:18.080 something about
01:16:18.740 me I fucking
01:16:21.240 hate your little
01:16:22.000 piece of shit
01:16:22.780 existence.
01:16:24.780 Really.
01:16:27.460 Go fucking
01:16:28.960 kill yourself.
01:16:30.660 All right.
01:16:34.940 So we'll see
01:16:38.320 if Ye can turn
01:16:39.560 the ship.
01:16:40.960 The Shane
01:16:41.640 when he wrote
01:16:42.280 about him
01:16:42.640 still believes
01:16:43.720 that Ye would
01:16:44.360 be a good
01:16:44.760 president.
01:16:47.000 So the
01:16:49.080 individual I was
01:16:49.660 just talking
01:16:50.020 about who was
01:16:51.280 talking to
01:16:52.120 Ye believed
01:16:53.180 before and
01:16:53.880 still does that
01:16:54.720 he might be a
01:16:55.240 good president.
01:16:56.920 What do you
01:16:57.280 think?
01:16:58.220 Oh and by the
01:16:58.740 way Ye said he
01:16:59.980 would run as a
01:17:00.680 Republican because
01:17:02.400 he doesn't think
01:17:03.080 an independent
01:17:03.900 can win.
01:17:04.340 Thank you.
01:17:04.400 Thank you.
01:17:04.480 Thank you.
01:17:09.560 Too unstable
01:17:10.200 for the nuclear
01:17:10.920 football?
01:17:12.280 I don't think
01:17:13.180 so.
01:17:14.680 I don't think
01:17:15.500 Ye is too
01:17:16.160 unstable for the
01:17:17.060 nuclear football.
01:17:18.520 What you think
01:17:19.060 he's going to
01:17:19.660 launch?
01:17:22.140 I don't.
01:17:27.560 Oh aardvark?
01:17:30.020 Thank you for
01:17:30.780 that.
01:17:31.000 So I'm finishing
01:17:32.920 up my book on
01:17:34.240 reframes and I
01:17:36.340 was just doing a
01:17:37.140 like an author's
01:17:38.420 reread yesterday
01:17:39.640 where I read it
01:17:40.940 like I'm a
01:17:41.940 consumer for the
01:17:42.740 first part and I
01:17:44.540 have to tell you
01:17:44.980 it's the best
01:17:45.400 thing I've done.
01:17:46.860 I think it's
01:17:47.840 going to change
01:17:48.320 the world.
01:17:50.220 Like it's
01:17:50.700 here's what it
01:17:52.760 does.
01:17:53.160 It takes all
01:17:54.220 the most
01:17:55.500 persuasive little
01:17:57.300 reframes and
01:17:58.120 puts them in one
01:17:58.740 place so if
01:18:00.000 you've got any
01:18:00.480 problems from
01:18:01.240 personal to
01:18:01.980 business to
01:18:02.800 understanding
01:18:03.860 reality itself
01:18:04.740 there's probably
01:18:05.560 more than one
01:18:06.580 reframe.
01:18:07.640 That's very
01:18:08.400 powerful that you
01:18:10.080 haven't been
01:18:10.500 exposed to yet.
01:18:12.300 And the
01:18:13.980 power of these
01:18:15.040 reframes so far
01:18:17.260 I think I have
01:18:17.800 over 130 of
01:18:19.300 them in the
01:18:19.960 book.
01:18:20.900 You're going to
01:18:21.580 find at least
01:18:22.140 10 that will
01:18:23.500 rock your world.
01:18:25.320 It might be a
01:18:25.780 different 10 from
01:18:26.700 somebody else's
01:18:27.580 10 because it's
01:18:28.600 based on what
01:18:29.120 you need in your
01:18:29.760 life.
01:18:30.460 But they are so
01:18:31.620 strong.
01:18:32.820 When you see
01:18:33.340 them all together
01:18:33.960 this will be
01:18:37.320 the best thing
01:18:38.280 I've ever done
01:18:38.960 in terms of
01:18:41.180 usefulness to
01:18:42.060 other people.
01:18:43.220 In terms of
01:18:44.060 usefulness to
01:18:44.800 other people
01:18:45.200 this will be
01:18:45.700 unparalleled.
01:18:46.680 Nothing will be
01:18:47.360 close.
01:18:47.660 I'm not going to
01:18:52.740 say it's a
01:18:53.180 masterpiece.
01:18:54.100 That's a
01:18:55.540 different connotation.
01:18:56.660 I'm going to
01:18:56.980 say useful.
01:18:58.460 It's going to be
01:18:58.940 the most useful
01:18:59.680 thing that's ever
01:19:00.340 been produced I
01:19:01.420 think.
01:19:03.840 Like actually.
01:19:04.700 It might actually
01:19:05.200 be the most useful
01:19:06.040 outside of maybe
01:19:07.040 the Bible or
01:19:07.720 something if you
01:19:08.200 want to go that
01:19:08.660 way.
01:19:09.440 But yeah there's
01:19:10.240 nothing I've
01:19:10.720 created that would
01:19:11.260 be this level of
01:19:12.420 direct benefit to
01:19:14.960 your life.
01:19:20.920 Just read
01:19:21.620 Jeffries if you
01:19:22.360 want to understand
01:19:23.080 what neuro
01:19:23.560 linguistic
01:19:23.960 programming does
01:19:24.960 to you.
01:19:26.080 Well I already
01:19:27.100 understand that.
01:19:30.540 It's like a
01:19:31.320 book of spells.
01:19:32.680 Yeah.
01:19:33.160 That's exactly
01:19:33.700 what it is.
01:19:39.720 So another
01:19:41.120 story I forgot
01:19:41.920 there was that
01:19:42.700 I saw AI was
01:19:45.720 asked to do
01:19:46.640 some hypnosis
01:19:47.340 and it
01:19:48.660 couldn't do it.
01:19:49.620 I mean it
01:19:49.900 tried but it
01:19:50.720 didn't know the
01:19:51.220 technique.
01:19:52.360 It just did
01:19:53.000 you know you're
01:19:53.460 getting sleepy
01:19:54.380 kind of stuff
01:19:55.000 which is not
01:19:55.520 really the
01:19:55.920 technique.
01:19:57.020 So AI
01:19:58.880 doesn't know
01:19:59.560 how to do
01:20:00.280 hypnosis.
01:20:03.840 You don't
01:20:04.580 want to be
01:20:05.120 alive when it
01:20:05.980 does.
01:20:08.360 If it ever
01:20:09.180 learns to do
01:20:09.880 hypnosis and
01:20:11.440 presumably it
01:20:12.340 could.
01:20:12.760 I mean I
01:20:13.060 could train
01:20:13.520 it in an
01:20:13.940 afternoon.
01:20:15.240 You're in
01:20:15.780 trouble.
01:20:17.120 I mean we
01:20:17.440 don't know what
01:20:18.280 this AI is going
01:20:19.040 to do to us
01:20:19.520 but I can tell
01:20:20.060 you every
01:20:20.480 prediction about
01:20:21.140 the future is
01:20:21.800 useless.
01:20:23.040 Everything will
01:20:23.600 change.
01:20:25.320 You all get
01:20:26.180 that right?
01:20:27.080 I think a lot of
01:20:28.000 people still have a
01:20:28.660 view of AI that
01:20:29.540 could be a wonky
01:20:30.980 little me too
01:20:32.140 thing that's
01:20:32.860 playing while we
01:20:34.500 go on with their
01:20:35.160 lives as normal.
01:20:36.060 your life will
01:20:39.140 not be
01:20:39.580 recognizable in
01:20:40.480 five years.
01:20:42.300 Civilization won't
01:20:43.080 even be
01:20:43.320 recognizable.
01:20:44.680 Everything will
01:20:45.200 be different.
01:20:46.340 Everything.
01:20:47.940 Yeah.
01:20:48.240 It's beyond
01:20:48.700 imagine.
01:20:49.140 It's literally
01:20:49.660 beyond imagination.
01:20:51.900 Yep.
01:20:54.340 All right.
01:20:54.980 I thought
01:20:59.680 people had to
01:21:00.160 be willing to
01:21:00.820 be hypnotized.
01:21:02.820 All right.
01:21:03.320 So here's a good
01:21:04.000 question.
01:21:05.780 Does advertising
01:21:06.920 work if you're
01:21:08.740 unwilling?
01:21:10.860 Yeah.
01:21:12.000 It does.
01:21:12.980 Does persuasion
01:21:14.080 in general work
01:21:15.000 if you're
01:21:16.820 you know on the
01:21:18.020 other team?
01:21:19.100 Well sometimes.
01:21:20.040 I mean it's hard
01:21:20.400 to change anybody's
01:21:21.260 mind to anything.
01:21:22.240 Sometimes.
01:21:23.280 Yeah.
01:21:24.080 But
01:21:24.460 when I say
01:21:25.520 hypnosis
01:21:26.000 I don't mean
01:21:27.740 it will put you
01:21:28.500 into a trance.
01:21:29.940 Although it
01:21:30.600 could.
01:21:31.580 It could.
01:21:32.820 But it doesn't
01:21:33.660 need to do that.
01:21:35.320 Because there's
01:21:35.980 I call it a
01:21:37.700 talking hypnosis.
01:21:39.940 If I just had a
01:21:40.960 conversation with
01:21:41.840 you
01:21:42.000 you might find
01:21:44.060 yourself
01:21:44.520 very persuaded
01:21:45.840 and you wouldn't
01:21:47.420 know what
01:21:47.780 happened.
01:21:49.640 And
01:21:50.240 I would not
01:21:51.200 necessarily even
01:21:52.080 know
01:21:52.420 that I had
01:21:53.720 used hypnosis
01:21:54.340 on you
01:21:54.800 because I
01:21:55.240 wouldn't be
01:21:55.560 conscious of
01:21:56.200 it doing it.
01:21:57.160 I would just
01:21:57.720 know that the
01:21:58.260 way I
01:21:58.660 presented it
01:21:59.340 was compatible
01:22:00.580 with hypnosis
01:22:01.700 and compatible
01:22:03.000 with persuasion.
01:22:04.840 Because once you
01:22:05.760 learn to speak in
01:22:06.640 those ways
01:22:07.200 it's automatic.
01:22:08.500 It's like
01:22:08.740 touch typing.
01:22:10.620 You don't think
01:22:11.260 your fingers are
01:22:12.060 just the same
01:22:13.240 way you talk.
01:22:14.200 When you know
01:22:14.640 persuasion you speak
01:22:15.780 persuasively
01:22:16.660 without thinking
01:22:18.120 through every
01:22:18.760 moment.
01:22:19.080 it just comes
01:22:19.760 out that
01:22:20.100 way.
01:22:22.440 We talked
01:22:23.140 about Brittany
01:22:23.880 Greiner.
01:22:25.160 You missed it
01:22:25.760 is the first
01:22:26.260 thing I did.
01:22:27.640 Is TikTok
01:22:28.160 like hypnosis?
01:22:29.200 Yes.
01:22:30.560 Yes.
01:22:31.020 TikTok
01:22:31.300 the reason you
01:22:32.280 feel addicted
01:22:32.800 to it
01:22:33.240 is that it's
01:22:33.860 persuasive.
01:22:36.040 Is there a
01:22:36.860 micro lesson
01:22:37.540 on this?
01:22:39.260 Not exactly.
01:22:41.360 So here's
01:22:42.220 a thing that
01:22:43.920 people don't
01:22:46.540 understand about
01:22:47.260 hypnosis.
01:22:48.460 It's true that
01:22:49.360 you can't do
01:22:49.880 a standard
01:22:51.400 hypnotic induction
01:22:52.540 with somebody
01:22:53.100 who doesn't
01:22:53.540 want to be
01:22:53.920 there.
01:22:54.600 Because they'll
01:22:55.100 just get up
01:22:55.620 and walk
01:22:55.940 away.
01:22:57.440 Or just not
01:22:58.380 listen or
01:22:59.080 whatever.
01:22:59.320 It doesn't
01:22:59.640 work.
01:23:01.680 But here's
01:23:02.460 the workaround
01:23:03.040 to that.
01:23:05.040 You can remove
01:23:06.300 people's objection
01:23:07.260 and then you
01:23:09.140 can do it.
01:23:10.260 So you can't
01:23:11.120 do it if
01:23:11.440 somebody doesn't
01:23:12.020 want to.
01:23:13.400 But sometimes
01:23:14.080 they don't
01:23:14.580 object to
01:23:15.460 having their
01:23:15.900 mind changed.
01:23:17.260 You see the
01:23:18.140 difference?
01:23:19.420 If they
01:23:19.940 definitely don't
01:23:20.500 want to, it
01:23:20.980 doesn't work.
01:23:22.700 But suppose
01:23:23.400 you said,
01:23:24.000 okay, I
01:23:24.260 don't want
01:23:24.680 to.
01:23:25.040 And I
01:23:25.280 said, okay,
01:23:26.660 well let me
01:23:27.260 change your
01:23:27.840 mind.
01:23:29.380 And I would
01:23:29.940 tell you that
01:23:30.380 hypnosis never
01:23:31.140 hurt anybody.
01:23:32.440 I would tell
01:23:32.840 you that you'd
01:23:33.360 be aware the
01:23:34.200 whole time and
01:23:34.760 you could come
01:23:36.460 out of it at
01:23:37.160 will anytime
01:23:37.860 you wanted.
01:23:38.740 And I would
01:23:39.200 give you what's
01:23:39.740 called the
01:23:40.140 pre-talk.
01:23:41.360 It's part of
01:23:41.880 hypnosis actually.
01:23:43.200 The pre-talk is
01:23:44.800 to convince you
01:23:45.580 that there's no
01:23:46.140 risk.
01:23:47.820 So then I'd
01:23:48.640 convince you
01:23:49.060 there's no
01:23:49.460 risk.
01:23:49.800 You'd say, oh,
01:23:51.260 okay, I guess
01:23:52.460 I'm okay with
01:23:53.040 that.
01:23:54.000 And then I
01:23:54.520 would hypnotize
01:23:55.140 you.
01:23:56.500 So it's a
01:23:57.440 little bit of a
01:23:57.980 trick when
01:23:58.980 hypnotists say,
01:24:00.220 because we
01:24:00.600 always do, to
01:24:01.720 protect ourselves,
01:24:02.820 you can't
01:24:03.360 hypnotize somebody
01:24:04.100 who's unwilling.
01:24:05.500 True.
01:24:05.940 But you can
01:24:08.160 make them
01:24:08.620 willing.
01:24:10.780 We don't
01:24:12.000 mention that.
01:24:13.100 We don't
01:24:13.440 mention the
01:24:13.880 part where we
01:24:14.380 make you
01:24:14.800 willing, and
01:24:15.960 then we
01:24:16.380 hypnotize you.
01:24:18.640 By the way,
01:24:19.400 that's like the
01:24:20.000 greatest unspoken
01:24:21.660 secret of
01:24:22.360 hypnosis, is
01:24:23.920 that it's
01:24:26.960 sort of always
01:24:27.540 happening.
01:24:28.280 Like, you can't
01:24:29.040 turn it off.
01:24:32.580 It won't matter
01:24:33.800 if you know.
01:24:36.240 Yeah, and the
01:24:37.300 swinging watch
01:24:38.100 thing, that's
01:24:39.160 not part of
01:24:39.740 hypnosis.
01:24:40.120 hypnosis.
01:24:40.900 That doesn't
01:24:41.740 buy you
01:24:42.080 anything.
01:24:45.520 The ladies
01:24:46.340 of coffee
01:24:46.960 with Scott
01:24:47.400 Adams calendar
01:24:48.160 coming soon.
01:24:51.020 That would
01:24:51.960 be a big
01:24:52.340 hit.
01:24:57.440 You had a
01:24:58.120 hypnotist as a
01:24:58.960 roommate in
01:24:59.460 college, that's
01:25:00.300 where you learned
01:25:00.880 your love of
01:25:01.480 cleaning and
01:25:02.080 doing dishes.
01:25:02.640 did you
01:25:12.420 I need to know more about that
01:25:16.900 but I'd love to know
01:25:18.180 I'd love to know if you volunteered
01:25:20.600 to be hypnotized
01:25:23.180 so you would enjoy chores
01:25:24.600 or did your hypnotist
01:25:26.540 hypnotize you to do his chores
01:25:28.540 as well as yours
01:25:29.440 I could have gone either way
01:25:31.980 that is funny
01:25:33.660 have I ever hypnotized someone
01:25:38.240 and convinced them to kill themselves
01:25:39.940 no
01:25:40.540 and by the way that doesn't work
01:25:44.540 because people have tried that
01:25:45.980 it's never worked
01:25:47.660 apparently peer pressure can make somebody
01:25:50.520 kill somebody but actual hypnosis
01:25:52.560 doesn't seem to have that power
01:25:53.920 oh that was meant to be snarky
01:25:57.400 okay
01:25:57.720 can someone be hypnotized
01:26:08.820 to work harder to get more money
01:26:10.200 yes
01:26:10.680 yes they can
01:26:11.940 assuming they want to work harder
01:26:13.920 to get more money
01:26:14.680 what hypnosis is really good at
01:26:17.020 is helping you perform better
01:26:20.380 at ordinary things
01:26:21.420 that you want to perform at
01:26:22.500 so it can make you better
01:26:24.200 at tennis
01:26:25.260 golf
01:26:26.580 you know
01:26:27.040 it can get rid of the yips
01:26:28.360 flying
01:26:29.380 you know
01:26:30.060 if you're afraid of flying
01:26:30.940 so it makes everything you do
01:26:32.500 a little bit better
01:26:33.240 potentially
01:26:33.760 because you want to be better
01:26:35.840 at those things
01:26:36.400 alright
01:26:37.960 that's all for now
01:26:39.060 as usual
01:26:40.480 the most provocative
01:26:41.920 and challenging
01:26:42.920 live stream
01:26:43.640 in all the world
01:26:44.800 are autistic people
01:26:47.420 less prone to hypnosis
01:26:48.560 I've never seen anybody
01:26:52.840 deal with that question
01:26:53.780 but my
01:26:54.500 experience says
01:26:56.680 it should be the same
01:26:57.700 because generally speaking
01:26:59.420 you cannot identify
01:27:00.780 in advance
01:27:01.500 someone who's easy
01:27:02.920 to hypnotize
01:27:03.660 everybody can be hypnotized
01:27:05.780 but about 20%
01:27:07.300 can actually see things
01:27:08.580 that don't exist
01:27:09.280 and have like
01:27:10.560 a real experience
01:27:11.840 that's incredible
01:27:12.720 but there's no correlation
01:27:14.820 of IQ
01:27:16.580 or personality
01:27:17.880 or
01:27:18.580 anything
01:27:19.660 that seems to tell you
01:27:20.600 in advance
01:27:21.040 who's in the 20%
01:27:22.000 so my guess is
01:27:23.320 that
01:27:23.680 anybody who can
01:27:25.740 understand
01:27:26.520 language
01:27:27.660 would be about the same
01:27:29.080 could it cure
01:27:32.580 Kamala's cackle
01:27:34.500 yes
01:27:35.020 yes
01:27:36.100 that would be actually
01:27:37.540 a good use
01:27:38.140 yeah
01:27:38.820 Kamala could learn
01:27:39.780 through hypnosis
01:27:40.520 not to have that reaction
01:27:43.680 yes
01:27:44.060 that would be something
01:27:44.740 are we seeing
01:27:48.680 Ye's first big offer
01:27:50.060 I don't think
01:27:52.120 that's not the way
01:27:52.920 I would couch it
01:27:53.740 because I don't know
01:27:54.700 what you would call
01:27:55.320 the first big offer
01:27:56.320 I think what he's doing
01:28:00.440 is
01:28:01.000 trying to
01:28:02.220 unify people
01:28:03.720 by
01:28:05.100 slaying
01:28:06.240 all of our
01:28:06.820 sacred cows
01:28:07.700 because
01:28:08.940 if you and I
01:28:10.740 have a beef
01:28:11.420 here's an
01:28:13.480 unintentional pun
01:28:14.340 if we have a beef
01:28:15.640 usually it's because
01:28:18.560 I've got a sacred cow
01:28:19.700 and you've got a sacred cow
01:28:20.960 and I can't kill your sacred cow
01:28:23.300 and you can't
01:28:24.040 and I can't kill mine
01:28:25.180 so we've got our
01:28:26.240 like our sacred cows here
01:28:27.660 but
01:28:29.120 I think what Ye is doing
01:28:31.800 is like
01:28:32.200 how about
01:28:33.040 I'll murder my cow
01:28:34.360 so you don't have
01:28:36.600 any problems
01:28:37.180 on my end
01:28:37.760 I'll just kill my cow
01:28:38.760 I don't have any
01:28:39.420 sacred cows now
01:28:40.340 but
01:28:41.360 would you mind
01:28:42.580 if I kill your cow
01:28:43.580 see that's where
01:28:45.380 he gets in trouble
01:28:46.140 right
01:28:47.860 the trouble is
01:28:49.280 he's trying to
01:28:49.800 kill your cow
01:28:50.580 so when he
01:28:51.920 when he said
01:28:52.600 that
01:28:54.840 slavery
01:28:55.540 sounds like a choice
01:28:56.680 he was trying to
01:28:58.680 kill
01:28:58.980 the sacred cow
01:29:00.420 which is
01:29:01.820 oh
01:29:02.060 slavery is sort of
01:29:04.300 our narrative
01:29:04.880 that gives us
01:29:06.240 some
01:29:06.560 political clout
01:29:08.120 when he went
01:29:09.620 after the Jewish
01:29:10.260 community
01:29:10.800 their sacred cow
01:29:13.240 is
01:29:13.800 the Holocaust
01:29:15.400 it's the narrative
01:29:16.940 that gives them
01:29:18.480 cover and power
01:29:19.580 and
01:29:20.080 you know
01:29:20.720 unites them
01:29:22.000 and
01:29:22.280 allows them to get
01:29:23.540 support
01:29:24.060 and everything
01:29:24.660 so Ye goes
01:29:25.920 directly after
01:29:27.120 their sacred cow
01:29:28.060 by saying
01:29:28.920 Hitler
01:29:29.220 I love Hitler
01:29:29.960 he basically
01:29:33.260 just put a shiv
01:29:34.160 right through
01:29:34.520 the sacred cow
01:29:35.360 so
01:29:36.740 here's the thing
01:29:38.420 so far
01:29:39.340 he's only
01:29:39.920 wounded
01:29:40.400 everybody's cow
01:29:41.500 so we're all
01:29:42.540 just mad
01:29:43.140 hey
01:29:44.120 you asshole
01:29:44.920 you hurt my cow
01:29:46.120 stop hurting
01:29:47.600 my cow
01:29:48.180 but
01:29:49.920 if he keeps
01:29:51.360 pushing
01:29:51.860 he's going to
01:29:53.240 kill your cow
01:29:53.960 and then what
01:29:55.580 and then you're
01:29:57.160 free
01:29:57.420 and so is he
01:29:58.860 so he's
01:30:00.280 trying to kill
01:30:00.800 your cow
01:30:01.340 and you don't
01:30:01.800 want your cow
01:30:02.320 killed
01:30:02.700 but it's not
01:30:03.960 clear that
01:30:04.420 you're better
01:30:04.820 off with
01:30:05.240 your cow
01:30:05.680 I think
01:30:08.140 his play
01:30:08.640 is
01:30:08.880 I think
01:30:09.200 you're better
01:30:09.520 off without
01:30:09.940 your cow
01:30:10.560 and I'm
01:30:11.740 going to
01:30:11.980 kill it
01:30:12.660 for you
01:30:12.960 and prove it
01:30:13.600 now
01:30:15.640 he's killed
01:30:17.480 all of his
01:30:17.920 own sacred
01:30:18.480 cows
01:30:18.920 pretty sure
01:30:21.220 he was
01:30:22.020 worshipping
01:30:22.680 money just
01:30:23.840 a few weeks
01:30:24.380 ago
01:30:24.760 wasn't he
01:30:26.480 like he was
01:30:28.120 proud of being
01:30:28.760 the richest
01:30:29.240 black guy
01:30:29.820 in America
01:30:30.260 and stuff
01:30:30.680 and like he
01:30:31.920 just threw
01:30:32.260 it all away
01:30:32.760 for the
01:30:34.040 freedom
01:30:34.360 he killed
01:30:36.060 his own
01:30:36.400 cow
01:30:36.660 so
01:30:39.660 one more
01:30:41.580 topic
01:30:42.100 house passes
01:30:43.220 landmark bill
01:30:43.900 to protect
01:30:44.440 same-sex
01:30:45.020 marriages
01:30:45.520 sending it
01:30:46.160 to Biden's
01:30:46.680 desk
01:30:47.000 well that's
01:30:48.480 what Congress
01:30:49.160 is for
01:30:49.640 that's what
01:30:51.520 Congress
01:30:51.900 is for
01:30:52.420 so
01:30:54.120 do you
01:30:56.020 think
01:30:56.300 it makes
01:30:57.620 any difference
01:30:58.360 that there
01:30:59.120 would be
01:30:59.380 a federal
01:31:00.360 law
01:31:00.820 making it
01:31:02.780 legal for
01:31:03.740 same-sex
01:31:04.360 people to
01:31:04.800 get married
01:31:05.220 you think
01:31:06.220 that makes
01:31:06.560 any difference
01:31:07.220 I mean
01:31:09.260 it makes
01:31:10.160 a difference
01:31:10.500 in the sense
01:31:11.000 that there
01:31:11.360 are some
01:31:11.640 states
01:31:12.100 that might
01:31:12.640 try to
01:31:13.860 ban it
01:31:14.660 I don't
01:31:15.960 know
01:31:16.480 has anybody
01:31:19.480 been damaged
01:31:20.320 by gay
01:31:21.020 marriage
01:31:21.440 so here's
01:31:23.360 the thing
01:31:23.660 you know
01:31:24.420 I always
01:31:24.720 talk about
01:31:25.180 A-B
01:31:25.560 testing
01:31:25.960 gay marriage
01:31:27.240 has been
01:31:27.580 tested
01:31:28.000 has it
01:31:29.720 not
01:31:29.980 is there
01:31:31.760 some big
01:31:32.300 like emergency
01:31:33.500 problem from
01:31:34.480 all the gays
01:31:35.080 getting married
01:31:35.640 and they
01:31:36.000 cause some
01:31:36.400 problems
01:31:36.780 that I
01:31:37.100 don't know
01:31:37.380 about
01:31:37.660 if I had
01:31:40.980 to guess
01:31:41.640 I'll bet
01:31:42.920 you the
01:31:43.340 gay marriages
01:31:44.380 are successful
01:31:46.280 at least as
01:31:47.260 successful
01:31:47.780 as any other
01:31:49.380 kind
01:31:49.660 and maybe
01:31:50.820 more
01:31:51.300 I mean I'm
01:31:52.340 leaning toward
01:31:52.980 maybe more
01:31:53.660 but I don't
01:31:54.980 know
01:31:55.200 the reason I
01:31:57.540 say more
01:31:58.000 is that it
01:31:58.740 just makes
01:31:59.160 sense to me
01:31:59.660 that two
01:32:00.580 people of the
01:32:01.180 same gender
01:32:01.760 would have a
01:32:02.380 little bit
01:32:02.680 more
01:32:03.000 in common
01:32:04.480 in the
01:32:05.180 you know
01:32:06.060 sticking
01:32:06.380 together
01:32:06.800 area
01:32:07.540 that seems
01:32:09.080 like it
01:32:09.320 would be
01:32:09.420 some
01:32:09.600 advantage
01:32:10.040 yeah
01:32:11.980 birth rates
01:32:13.820 would be
01:32:14.080 affected
01:32:14.440 but still
01:32:14.960 freedom
01:32:15.400 requires that
01:32:16.080 we get
01:32:16.380 to decide
01:32:16.840 if we
01:32:17.080 have kids
01:32:17.420 or not
01:32:17.780 so would
01:32:21.600 you agree
01:32:21.980 with my
01:32:22.440 statement
01:32:22.800 that gay
01:32:23.620 marriage
01:32:23.960 has been
01:32:24.500 tested
01:32:25.060 thoroughly
01:32:27.100 tested
01:32:27.560 and that
01:32:28.740 there doesn't
01:32:29.280 seem to be
01:32:29.780 any downside
01:32:30.360 at all
01:32:30.820 would you
01:32:32.480 agree with
01:32:32.840 that statement
01:32:33.320 what's the
01:32:35.020 downside
01:32:35.420 if you
01:32:37.220 think there's
01:32:37.600 a downside
01:32:38.140 mention it
01:32:40.640 churches
01:32:43.180 lose
01:32:43.840 tax
01:32:44.320 status
01:32:44.940 yeah
01:32:47.400 that's
01:32:47.720 maybe
01:32:48.000 that's a
01:32:48.480 sub
01:32:48.740 that's a
01:32:49.360 sub
01:32:49.580 issue
01:32:49.880 that's a
01:32:50.440 different
01:32:50.640 issue
01:32:50.960 but
01:32:51.200 that's
01:32:51.740 an
01:32:51.840 important
01:32:52.100 one
01:32:52.840 yeah
01:32:59.840 okay
01:33:00.360 well I
01:33:01.960 would
01:33:02.140 so I guess
01:33:02.880 that's my
01:33:03.260 take
01:33:03.560 my take
01:33:04.560 is you
01:33:04.960 don't need
01:33:05.320 to test
01:33:05.720 something
01:33:06.080 that's been
01:33:06.500 that thoroughly
01:33:07.140 tested
01:33:07.600 and once
01:33:08.920 something is
01:33:09.600 tested
01:33:10.020 and it
01:33:10.560 works
01:33:10.960 you keep
01:33:12.520 those
01:33:12.840 so to me
01:33:13.860 this looks
01:33:14.280 like a good
01:33:14.900 evolution
01:33:15.400 it evolves
01:33:17.120 us from
01:33:17.560 something we
01:33:18.120 tested
01:33:18.500 and most
01:33:20.040 people agree
01:33:20.860 now I'll
01:33:21.940 accept that
01:33:22.460 maybe other
01:33:23.060 people are
01:33:23.600 disagreeing with
01:33:25.000 it
01:33:25.180 but even you
01:33:26.340 would agree
01:33:26.680 that it
01:33:26.960 worked
01:33:27.320 even if you
01:33:28.360 don't like
01:33:28.840 it
01:33:29.160 right
01:33:29.600 wouldn't you
01:33:30.180 agree
01:33:30.440 yeah
01:33:32.500 I mean it
01:33:33.120 hasn't caused
01:33:33.580 any problem
01:33:34.160 I can see
01:33:34.920 you know what
01:33:37.500 you never hear
01:33:38.080 I don't want
01:33:39.680 to be walking
01:33:40.260 in that
01:33:40.620 neighborhood
01:33:41.020 at night
01:33:41.840 because it's
01:33:42.840 an LGBTQ
01:33:43.540 neighborhood
01:33:44.360 you know
01:33:45.860 because those
01:33:46.320 dangerous
01:33:46.800 criminal
01:33:47.600 LGBTQ
01:33:48.420 people
01:33:49.080 might beat
01:33:49.560 me up
01:33:49.900 if I go
01:33:50.280 there
01:33:50.520 you know
01:33:52.600 I don't
01:33:52.920 think there's
01:33:53.520 any demographic
01:33:55.300 group
01:33:55.940 that has been
01:33:57.960 more successful
01:33:58.760 than the
01:33:59.760 LGBTQ
01:34:00.320 community
01:34:01.240 I mean
01:34:02.280 talk about
01:34:02.820 people who
01:34:03.420 are you know
01:34:04.200 definitely
01:34:04.820 adding to
01:34:05.620 your country
01:34:06.120 that they're
01:34:07.620 adding a lot
01:34:08.340 a lot
01:34:09.740 really
01:34:12.240 you doubt
01:34:13.120 that
01:34:13.440 you don't
01:34:15.100 think the
01:34:15.460 LGBT
01:34:15.860 community
01:34:16.600 is yet
01:34:17.340 another
01:34:17.760 super
01:34:18.580 advantage
01:34:19.000 of America
01:34:19.980 because if
01:34:21.640 you do
01:34:21.880 you haven't
01:34:22.200 been paying
01:34:22.600 attention
01:34:23.000 because they're
01:34:23.580 killing it
01:34:24.120 they're killing
01:34:25.400 it in all
01:34:26.440 kinds of
01:34:27.220 domains
01:34:27.660 you know
01:34:29.180 and always
01:34:30.980 have
01:34:31.280 you know
01:34:31.720 from
01:34:31.940 from Newton
01:34:33.080 to Da Vinci
01:34:34.480 to
01:34:35.880 maybe Tesla
01:34:37.540 you know
01:34:38.840 aren't some
01:34:39.260 of the most
01:34:39.680 famous successful
01:34:40.600 people in the
01:34:41.300 world
01:34:41.600 that were
01:34:42.860 known to
01:34:43.200 be gay
01:34:43.520 right
01:34:43.780 so
01:34:46.260 if you look
01:34:49.060 at
01:34:49.420 let's see
01:34:49.940 was it
01:34:50.260 Indonesia
01:34:50.780 that just
01:34:51.260 made
01:34:51.720 just made
01:34:55.440 premarital
01:34:56.360 sex illegal
01:34:57.080 but I'm
01:34:58.460 sure they
01:34:58.720 have some
01:34:59.000 views about
01:34:59.540 the LGBT
01:35:00.100 community
01:35:00.880 don't you
01:35:01.860 think that
01:35:02.180 a country
01:35:02.580 that
01:35:03.020 gives
01:35:04.680 you know
01:35:05.240 full
01:35:05.860 appreciation
01:35:06.560 to the
01:35:07.060 LGBT
01:35:07.440 community
01:35:08.240 gets more
01:35:09.640 value
01:35:10.160 a lot
01:35:11.560 more
01:35:11.860 than a
01:35:13.040 society
01:35:13.460 that
01:35:13.800 oppresses
01:35:14.280 them
01:35:14.580 isn't it
01:35:16.380 obvious
01:35:16.800 would
01:35:18.320 anybody
01:35:18.820 disagree
01:35:19.200 with that
01:35:19.640 to me
01:35:20.980 it's
01:35:21.120 obvious
01:35:21.540 it's
01:35:22.520 like
01:35:22.700 it's
01:35:22.900 an
01:35:23.080 entire
01:35:23.480 historically
01:35:24.920 super
01:35:25.940 successful
01:35:26.560 community
01:35:27.320 that why
01:35:28.340 would you
01:35:28.680 want to
01:35:29.100 suppress
01:35:29.560 some of
01:35:30.200 your
01:35:30.300 most
01:35:30.540 successful
01:35:30.940 people
01:35:31.400 historically
01:35:32.440 yeah
01:35:35.140 I don't
01:35:35.540 know
01:35:35.720 so I
01:35:36.400 think
01:35:36.540 that's
01:35:36.740 something
01:35:36.880 we do
01:35:37.140 right
01:35:37.360 I don't
01:35:39.400 know if
01:35:39.700 the rule
01:35:40.080 was
01:35:40.320 necessary
01:35:40.720 you know
01:35:41.100 I don't
01:35:41.320 know if
01:35:41.520 we need
01:35:41.800 a federal
01:35:42.240 rule
01:35:42.740 but I'm
01:35:43.380 always happy
01:35:44.120 when you
01:35:44.480 AB test
01:35:45.080 something
01:35:45.440 it works
01:35:46.560 and then
01:35:47.000 you codify
01:35:47.660 it
01:35:48.040 to me
01:35:49.360 that's
01:35:49.620 perfect
01:35:50.000 that's
01:35:51.040 exactly
01:35:51.400 what I
01:35:51.720 want
01:35:51.980 if it
01:35:53.160 hadn't
01:35:53.540 worked
01:35:54.000 like if
01:35:54.960 there was
01:35:55.160 some
01:35:55.320 big
01:35:55.520 problem
01:35:55.980 then I'd
01:35:56.340 say no
01:35:56.720 don't
01:35:57.120 codify
01:35:57.500 that
01:35:57.760 but
01:35:58.020 to me
01:35:59.200 it looks
01:35:59.440 like it
01:35:59.700 worked
01:35:59.940 Sarah
01:36:02.220 says stop
01:36:03.060 lying
01:36:03.540 what do
01:36:05.080 you think
01:36:05.280 I'm lying
01:36:05.740 about
01:36:06.040 you know
01:36:09.880 I often
01:36:10.580 say that
01:36:11.340 you know
01:36:12.240 the question
01:36:13.120 of should
01:36:13.520 you lie
01:36:13.980 or should
01:36:14.480 you not
01:36:15.020 is the
01:36:16.020 wrong
01:36:16.260 question
01:36:16.680 the right
01:36:18.820 question is
01:36:19.480 shouldn't
01:36:20.400 you live
01:36:20.820 your life
01:36:21.240 in a way
01:36:21.560 where you
01:36:21.900 don't need
01:36:22.260 to
01:36:22.480 like that
01:36:24.000 that's
01:36:24.360 the
01:36:24.560 that's
01:36:25.480 the goal
01:36:25.960 is to
01:36:26.900 simply
01:36:27.220 not
01:36:27.820 need
01:36:28.040 to
01:36:28.240 and
01:36:29.260 you know
01:36:29.960 I'm not
01:36:30.320 sure you
01:36:30.620 can get
01:36:30.940 all the
01:36:31.240 way to
01:36:31.560 not needing
01:36:32.040 to
01:36:32.300 because
01:36:32.660 it seems
01:36:33.080 like there's
01:36:33.460 always some
01:36:33.840 reason
01:36:34.140 you always
01:36:35.160 need to
01:36:35.480 lie to a
01:36:35.920 terrorist
01:36:36.280 to save
01:36:36.880 somebody's
01:36:37.240 life
01:36:37.460 right
01:36:37.640 there's
01:36:37.820 always
01:36:37.980 going to
01:36:38.120 be a
01:36:38.300 reason
01:36:38.480 but
01:36:39.460 you know
01:36:39.780 try to
01:36:40.100 get as
01:36:40.320 close as
01:36:40.800 you can
01:36:41.260 to not
01:36:42.020 having
01:36:42.260 any
01:36:42.580 reason
01:36:42.880 to
01:36:43.100 lie
01:36:43.380 and
01:36:44.960 I'm
01:36:46.280 pretty
01:36:46.600 close to
01:36:47.160 that
01:36:47.440 with this
01:36:48.120 live
01:36:48.400 stream
01:36:48.680 pretty
01:36:49.700 close
01:36:50.100 I mean
01:36:50.880 I can't
01:36:51.220 think of
01:36:51.540 anything
01:36:51.840 that I've
01:36:53.100 lied
01:36:53.280 about
01:36:53.540 so
01:36:54.560 I don't
01:36:55.600 I don't
01:36:56.100 ever feel
01:36:56.740 an impulse
01:36:57.620 to lie
01:36:58.140 like that's
01:36:59.820 never in my
01:37:00.360 mind
01:37:00.720 it's like
01:37:01.120 oh I better
01:37:01.580 lie about
01:37:02.000 this
01:37:02.300 because I
01:37:03.320 feel like
01:37:03.840 you know
01:37:04.760 you've
01:37:05.160 you've all
01:37:06.200 become the
01:37:06.680 kind of
01:37:07.000 people who
01:37:07.440 can hear
01:37:07.940 provocative
01:37:08.880 views
01:37:09.380 and not
01:37:09.900 blow up
01:37:10.580 Rashi
01:37:14.480 says
01:37:14.840 Scott thinks
01:37:15.400 he's telling
01:37:15.780 the truth
01:37:16.340 but he's
01:37:16.920 wrong
01:37:17.240 his perceived
01:37:18.500 truth is
01:37:19.120 wonky
01:37:19.500 well I agree
01:37:20.380 with you
01:37:20.700 yes
01:37:21.580 truth is
01:37:22.160 subjective
01:37:22.620 so the
01:37:23.740 only thing
01:37:24.100 I can
01:37:24.440 claim
01:37:24.780 is that
01:37:25.780 the thing
01:37:26.180 I think
01:37:26.540 is true
01:37:26.900 is what
01:37:27.180 I'm
01:37:27.280 saying
01:37:27.540 that's
01:37:27.880 all
01:37:27.980 I'm
01:37:28.060 saying
01:37:28.240 if gay
01:37:37.480 marriage
01:37:37.800 was successful
01:37:38.520 they wouldn't
01:37:39.060 need the
01:37:39.440 bill
01:37:39.640 that's
01:37:41.240 not
01:37:41.420 true
01:37:41.680 that
01:37:42.720 doesn't
01:37:43.020 follow
01:37:43.280 logically
01:37:43.800 the
01:37:52.500 downside
01:37:52.880 of gay
01:37:53.320 marriage
01:37:53.760 and what
01:37:54.300 about the
01:37:54.680 project
01:37:55.100 veritas
01:37:55.560 latest
01:37:56.240 video
01:37:56.680 I'm not
01:37:58.040 sure what
01:37:58.520 that point
01:37:58.920 is but I
01:37:59.380 think you're
01:37:59.740 saying that
01:38:01.100 there's a
01:38:01.460 project
01:38:01.820 veritas
01:38:02.240 video that
01:38:03.020 might go
01:38:03.460 to grooming
01:38:04.160 is it was
01:38:05.520 that a
01:38:05.780 grooming
01:38:06.100 question
01:38:06.640 are you
01:38:08.840 honestly
01:38:09.260 conflating
01:38:09.920 gay marriage
01:38:10.580 with grooming
01:38:11.300 because that
01:38:13.300 would be
01:38:13.560 very distasteful
01:38:14.720 am I
01:38:19.240 or is there
01:38:20.660 something more
01:38:21.140 to that
01:38:21.560 is it more
01:38:22.820 to the story
01:38:23.380 but I hope
01:38:25.460 you didn't
01:38:25.740 just do that
01:38:26.440 did you
01:38:26.980 did you
01:38:27.980 just say
01:38:28.360 that gay
01:38:28.900 marriage
01:38:29.220 is leading
01:38:29.660 to grooming
01:38:30.200 because that
01:38:31.940 would be
01:38:32.560 an odious
01:38:33.240 opinion
01:38:34.120 all right
01:38:42.940 well I
01:38:43.620 so I
01:38:44.540 I see
01:38:44.940 those
01:38:45.360 I see
01:38:47.200 those as
01:38:47.660 disconnected
01:38:48.360 topics
01:38:49.420 all right
01:38:52.240 the incidence
01:38:54.480 is higher
01:38:55.120 I don't
01:38:57.800 know how
01:38:58.040 to find
01:38:58.340 a good
01:38:58.580 hypnotist
01:38:59.240 because the
01:39:01.260 trouble is
01:39:01.820 they're
01:39:03.700 hypnotists
01:39:04.360 yay doesn't
01:39:07.200 try to
01:39:07.540 offend
01:39:08.040 Jesus
01:39:10.120 or
01:39:10.660 Mohammed
01:39:11.040 well he's
01:39:11.620 a pro
01:39:12.160 Jesus
01:39:12.460 guy
01:39:12.800 that's
01:39:13.160 his
01:39:13.280 whole
01:39:13.440 point
01:39:13.840 I've
01:39:16.200 I've
01:39:16.680 heard yay
01:39:17.120 say
01:39:17.500 positive
01:39:17.980 things
01:39:18.380 about
01:39:18.760 Islam
01:39:19.420 but I
01:39:22.480 don't know
01:39:22.780 if I've
01:39:23.080 heard negative
01:39:23.660 things
01:39:24.220 I don't
01:39:24.960 know
01:39:25.520 draw a
01:39:29.380 cartoon
01:39:29.760 of
01:39:30.120 Mohammed
01:39:30.520 somebody
01:39:30.960 says
01:39:31.360 you know
01:39:32.480 what
01:39:32.700 I'm
01:39:34.300 okay with
01:39:34.820 everybody
01:39:35.320 having their
01:39:35.880 one thing
01:39:36.500 right
01:39:38.000 if black
01:39:39.120 people want
01:39:39.680 to have
01:39:39.980 the n
01:39:40.420 word
01:39:40.720 for
01:39:41.100 themselves
01:39:41.540 I think
01:39:42.960 well
01:39:43.420 hey
01:39:44.320 I want
01:39:44.820 to use
01:39:45.100 all the
01:39:45.420 words
01:39:45.720 too
01:39:46.000 but that's
01:39:46.480 such a
01:39:46.860 small
01:39:47.240 ask
01:39:47.740 it's
01:39:48.740 such a
01:39:49.080 small
01:39:49.460 thing
01:39:49.740 to ask
01:39:50.280 all right
01:39:51.200 if
01:39:53.320 Islam
01:39:54.700 wants
01:39:56.380 cartoonists
01:39:57.140 not to
01:39:57.520 draw comics
01:39:58.120 of them
01:39:58.540 my first
01:40:00.000 impression
01:40:00.320 is I
01:40:00.640 want to
01:40:00.880 be able
01:40:01.120 to draw
01:40:01.400 a comic
01:40:01.760 about
01:40:02.040 anything
01:40:02.320 I want
01:40:02.840 and then
01:40:03.580 I think
01:40:03.860 well that's
01:40:04.300 the smallest
01:40:04.940 thing to
01:40:05.880 ask for
01:40:06.380 and that's
01:40:07.280 really a
01:40:07.740 small ask
01:40:08.520 if the
01:40:09.180 only thing
01:40:09.640 I can't
01:40:10.040 do
01:40:10.240 is draw
01:40:11.240 a comic
01:40:11.860 about
01:40:12.200 you know
01:40:13.040 one
01:40:13.400 one religious
01:40:14.340 group
01:40:14.740 it doesn't
01:40:16.780 affect me
01:40:17.180 too much
01:40:17.580 yeah
01:40:19.600 even
01:40:19.860 no matter
01:40:20.840 what you
01:40:21.160 think of
01:40:21.620 the ask
01:40:22.260 it's very
01:40:22.820 small
01:40:23.320 we left
01:40:29.900 behind a
01:40:30.420 U.S.
01:40:30.740 Marine to
