00:00:00.000 And I would not argue with that.
00:00:02.420 I wouldn't argue with it at all.
00:00:04.120 Because it might be the best thing that's ever happened to you.
00:00:06.840 And you won't believe this part, but it's going to get better.
00:00:11.480 Yeah, yeah, it gets better than this.
00:00:14.340 Right, right, I know.
00:00:16.260 It's hard to believe.
00:00:17.440 But all you need to make it better is a cupper mugger, a glass of tanker,
00:00:21.200 a chalice or a steiner, a canteen, a joker, a flasker, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:24.280 Fill it with your favorite liquid, I like, coffee.
00:00:27.260 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine here of the day,
00:00:31.620 the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:33.220 It's called a simultaneous sip.
00:00:36.640 It happens now.
00:00:38.720 Go.
00:00:43.800 Ah.
00:00:45.420 Very good.
00:00:48.580 Well, I would like to start with an angry screed against guitars.
00:00:57.260 Some of you know I bought myself a nice guitar, and I said to myself,
00:01:00.960 how hard could that be?
00:01:02.720 How hard could it be to play a guitar?
00:01:05.420 And then you find out, okay, the first thing you need to know
00:01:08.420 is you need to deform your fingers so that they can form unnatural claw-like shapes
00:01:14.820 that you'll use in a non-obvious claw-like way.
00:01:21.200 Now, if you have a normal-sized hand, you need to be able to spread these.
00:01:29.780 So my guitar teacher said, try putting a tennis ball between these two fingers,
00:01:35.260 like spread them out, to which I sat there and I thought,
00:01:38.400 are you seriously telling me I have to deform my body to play an instrument?
00:01:43.740 Now, I've got a complaint, and it goes like this.
00:01:51.120 I'll try to say this without the F word,
00:01:53.280 but I don't think I'm going to be able to get all the way through it.
00:01:58.980 Serenity now.
00:02:00.960 And it goes like this.
00:02:03.760 If you invented a musical instrument,
00:02:06.580 or perhaps a sporting event,
00:02:10.280 and you invented that sporting event or musical instrument
00:02:14.920 a hundred fucking years ago,
00:02:19.040 maybe every now and then you should take a look at it,
00:02:22.460 see if you could upgrade the interface.
00:02:25.360 Say to yourself,
00:02:26.160 I wonder if anything's improved in the last hundred years.
00:02:33.000 For example, when basketball was invented,
00:02:36.580 and they said, let's put this hoop at ten feet,
00:02:40.120 do you think they were saying to themselves,
00:02:42.520 oh, this will be fun when seven-foot tall people overtake the sport,
00:02:48.440 and the only thing you're really finding out is how tall people are,
00:02:51.640 give or take, you know, a curry.
00:02:55.960 Do you think you would have invented basketball the same way?
00:02:58.900 Hey, let's invent things where a seven-footer
00:03:04.360 will just stand near the hoop and ruin the game for the rest of us?
00:03:09.180 Hey, I'm here to ruin the game for the rest of you
00:03:11.060 because it wasn't invented for seven-foot tall people.
00:03:13.740 Didn't see this coming, did you?
00:03:15.340 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:03:16.940 Or how about tennis?
00:03:18.900 Are any of you dumb enough to play tennis?
00:03:21.500 I was dumb enough to play tennis for, I don't know,
00:03:24.120 50 years until I quit.
00:03:26.040 Do you know what ruined tennis?
00:03:29.820 The equipment.
00:03:31.860 The game stayed the same,
00:03:33.900 and somebody kept inventing stronger players
00:03:36.460 and more powerful rackets
00:03:38.600 until the entire game is some guy with an arm the size of a tree trunk
00:03:44.520 serving bullets at the other person,
00:03:46.960 and the other person's like,
00:03:48.000 and that's basically the sport of tennis.
00:03:52.920 Every hundred fucking years,
00:03:55.040 you should take a look at your sport
00:03:56.380 and see if anything has changed
00:03:58.440 to maybe update it a little bit.
00:04:01.140 All right?
00:04:01.680 Now, I'm no Elon Musk,
00:04:05.620 but if I were,
00:04:08.480 I would buy all of the guitar-making manufacturers in the world,
00:04:13.180 and I'd say,
00:04:14.260 you know what you shouldn't make anymore
00:04:16.120 is an instrument that requires you to put fingers
00:04:19.320 in a distorted monster way
00:04:22.340 around a thing that's way too thick for your hand,
00:04:26.420 and like this,
00:04:28.480 like that.
00:04:29.540 Don't do that.
00:04:32.300 Instead, let me just suggest
00:04:34.720 that each of these cords could possibly be maybe one button.
00:04:40.460 Yes, I know there are more cords
00:04:42.620 than you could fit with buttons, perhaps,
00:04:44.560 but you only need three to do most.
00:04:48.080 You know, you could do a lot with three cords.
00:04:50.480 You give me 50 cords,
00:04:52.440 one button apiece,
00:04:54.480 I think I could learn to play the guitar,
00:04:57.220 but I wouldn't learn to play the guitar
00:04:59.280 like this,
00:05:00.760 like this,
00:05:02.140 deforming my body.
00:05:03.640 Oh, hey, everybody.
00:05:05.120 Good news.
00:05:06.240 I've been playing the guitar so long
00:05:07.900 that my hand is now deformed
00:05:09.280 permanently,
00:05:10.440 and now I'm a great guitar player.
00:05:14.120 Look at this.
00:05:15.540 Look at my sport.
00:05:20.400 All right.
00:05:20.980 I just had to get that out of my system.
00:05:23.880 Now can we talk about the news?
00:05:26.700 That was just
00:05:27.540 a point of personal privilege there.
00:05:30.340 Sorry.
00:05:34.040 Joshua Steidman
00:05:35.080 has a very interesting thread.
00:05:37.080 You've heard about these
00:05:38.740 seemingly independent attacks
00:05:41.520 on our grid.
00:05:43.760 So in a few cases,
00:05:45.180 people have snipers
00:05:46.860 have fired bullets
00:05:47.720 into power grids
00:05:49.320 in local places.
00:05:51.160 But there seems to be
00:05:52.660 some kind of a,
00:05:53.920 maybe a pattern.
00:05:55.600 There seems to be an uptick
00:05:56.760 in what look to be
00:05:58.880 rogue attacks
00:05:59.960 on the infrastructure.
00:06:01.940 Now, we don't have any evidence
00:06:03.620 that these are coordinated.
00:06:04.900 But as Joshua
00:06:06.920 so wisely points out,
00:06:10.440 if a foreign country
00:06:13.240 wanted to mess with us,
00:06:14.880 and as he uses the phrase,
00:06:17.020 put sand in our gears,
00:06:19.320 one of the ways
00:06:20.440 you could do it,
00:06:21.460 which is a known,
00:06:22.960 understood way
00:06:23.640 to do things,
00:06:24.840 is the intelligence agency
00:06:26.580 from another
00:06:27.340 unfriendly country
00:06:28.960 could look for
00:06:30.920 rogue criminal elements
00:06:33.100 who would be willing
00:06:33.860 to do an attack
00:06:34.720 for money.
00:06:36.260 And then it wouldn't be obvious
00:06:37.580 where the attacks
00:06:38.240 were coming from.
00:06:39.000 It would look like
00:06:39.580 a bunch of individual
00:06:41.140 rogue terrorists.
00:06:43.960 And Joshua points out
00:06:46.620 that there's
00:06:47.460 at least three possibilities here.
00:06:50.720 But they all have
00:06:51.640 to be considered.
00:06:52.740 One is that they are
00:06:53.660 individual attacks,
00:06:54.920 and there's something
00:06:55.560 that's causing more of them,
00:06:56.860 but maybe not anybody
00:06:58.400 coordinating it.
00:06:59.320 Number two,
00:07:04.240 possibility is
00:07:05.300 it's an actual
00:07:05.980 coordinated attack
00:07:07.280 in which
00:07:08.540 the foreign government
00:07:10.400 is trying to hurt
00:07:11.360 the United States,
00:07:12.780 and it's just about
00:07:13.780 hurting us.
00:07:14.860 That's possible.
00:07:16.380 The other possibility
00:07:17.400 is the funny one,
00:07:19.040 that there's a foreign country
00:07:20.580 that's trying to send us
00:07:21.680 a message
00:07:22.200 that they could destroy
00:07:23.860 our grid
00:07:24.380 any time they want to,
00:07:26.240 but we're not getting
00:07:27.120 the message
00:07:27.680 because it's too indirect.
00:07:29.520 It's too subtle.
00:07:31.080 Like, okay,
00:07:32.160 are they trying to send
00:07:33.040 us a message?
00:07:34.240 Because they look like
00:07:35.200 individual attacks,
00:07:36.660 but they do have
00:07:37.440 something in common,
00:07:39.100 but we don't know
00:07:39.820 who would be sending
00:07:40.480 the message.
00:07:41.960 So it might actually be
00:07:43.500 one possibility
00:07:45.000 is that it's
00:07:45.600 a failed attempt
00:07:46.780 to send a message
00:07:48.140 that somebody could
00:07:49.060 take us out
00:07:49.560 if they want to,
00:07:50.760 and we're not getting it.
00:07:53.220 Now,
00:07:53.920 I don't know
00:07:54.740 which one to bet on,
00:07:55.600 but I like
00:07:57.540 the way of thinking
00:07:59.460 that says
00:08:00.120 don't eliminate
00:08:01.020 all the possibilities.
00:08:04.100 Like,
00:08:04.400 need to look into it
00:08:05.360 a little bit.
00:08:07.220 All right.
00:08:12.440 So,
00:08:13.440 have you ever heard me say,
00:08:15.480 for those of you
00:08:16.540 who are new
00:08:16.860 to my live stream,
00:08:18.660 can the people
00:08:19.260 who have been watching
00:08:19.780 me for a while,
00:08:20.960 how many times
00:08:21.860 have I said
00:08:22.580 that in the long run
00:08:24.220 the United States
00:08:25.000 and Russia
00:08:25.440 are natural allies?
00:08:27.640 The actual phrase,
00:08:28.460 the word natural allies.
00:08:31.180 Can you confirm
00:08:31.940 that I've said that
00:08:32.660 way too many times?
00:08:33.960 I've said that
00:08:34.480 so many times.
00:08:36.280 Well,
00:08:36.800 today in the news,
00:08:38.720 freed Russian arms dealer
00:08:41.920 Victor Bout,
00:08:43.480 he's the one
00:08:44.120 who was traded
00:08:44.860 for Greiner,
00:08:47.220 the WNBA player.
00:08:48.940 So he's free now.
00:08:49.940 He had been
00:08:50.280 in an American jail
00:08:51.280 for his arms dealing,
00:08:53.940 which were pretty bad
00:08:55.300 because he armed
00:08:56.200 a lot of African
00:08:57.020 and other countries
00:08:58.580 that killed
00:08:59.240 a lot of people.
00:09:00.560 But it turns out
00:09:01.700 that Victor,
00:09:02.900 the dangerous
00:09:03.820 Russian arms dealer,
00:09:05.320 is very pro-American.
00:09:07.540 He's very pro-American.
00:09:10.300 He speaks
00:09:11.060 really good English
00:09:12.000 with an accent,
00:09:13.420 but he's really good English.
00:09:15.060 And in jail,
00:09:16.420 he said he would
00:09:17.100 hang around
00:09:18.200 with a number
00:09:19.760 of rural people.
00:09:21.800 I don't know
00:09:22.160 why he mentioned rural,
00:09:23.840 probably because
00:09:24.900 they were white,
00:09:25.580 now that I think about it.
00:09:26.800 But he said
00:09:27.200 he hung around
00:09:27.780 with a lot of rural people,
00:09:29.540 you know, Americans,
00:09:30.560 and he said
00:09:31.000 they were great
00:09:31.560 because they were
00:09:33.100 all interested in Russia.
00:09:34.400 Nobody had any
00:09:35.220 bad feelings about Russia.
00:09:37.120 He had no bad feelings
00:09:38.360 about Americans.
00:09:39.420 Loves Americans.
00:09:41.060 And he said,
00:09:42.360 he actually used
00:09:43.020 the same phrase.
00:09:44.420 He said that Russia
00:09:45.180 and the United States
00:09:45.860 are natural allies.
00:09:47.080 Did you see that coming?
00:09:50.380 Like, who had that
00:09:51.500 on their bingo card?
00:09:53.340 Freed Russian arms dealer
00:09:54.880 says U.S. and America
00:09:55.960 are natural allies,
00:09:57.340 and we should maybe
00:09:58.040 yak that way.
00:10:03.180 Scott doesn't say
00:10:04.200 we are natural allies.
00:10:05.980 First time hearing it
00:10:07.060 since 2017.
00:10:09.200 So there's somebody
00:10:10.040 out here who says
00:10:10.780 I've never said that.
00:10:13.520 But there are plenty
00:10:14.480 of people who've heard
00:10:15.220 me say it
00:10:15.780 probably 12 times.
00:10:18.480 Yeah, I've said it a lot.
00:10:21.960 So, I don't know
00:10:23.080 if that means anything,
00:10:24.040 but it's interesting
00:10:24.700 to have a famous
00:10:26.740 Russian arms dealer
00:10:28.040 agree with me.
00:10:29.700 Because if you don't
00:10:30.620 have a famous
00:10:31.460 Russian arms dealer
00:10:32.620 agreeing with your
00:10:33.600 live stream,
00:10:35.340 well, you need to
00:10:36.040 work harder.
00:10:37.120 Try to get them
00:10:37.640 on your side.
00:10:39.720 Today is full of
00:10:40.740 actually really
00:10:41.400 interesting news.
00:10:42.820 Like the kind
00:10:43.740 where you just say,
00:10:44.720 really?
00:10:45.880 Really?
00:10:47.780 Is that true?
00:10:49.260 All right, here's
00:10:49.620 another one.
00:10:50.860 How many of you
00:10:51.580 know Daniel Ellsberg
00:10:52.860 from the,
00:10:53.740 it was the
00:10:54.140 Pentagon Papers,
00:10:55.200 right?
00:10:55.960 So he had some,
00:10:56.860 he had some secret
00:10:58.500 U.S. government
00:11:00.660 documents.
00:11:02.620 And so that was,
00:11:04.080 you know,
00:11:04.260 a famous story
00:11:04.900 of Daniel Ellsberg.
00:11:06.120 So Daniel Ellsberg
00:11:06.920 now is quite elderly.
00:11:09.380 I don't know
00:11:10.080 how old he is,
00:11:10.860 but it looks like
00:11:12.220 he's around 80-ish,
00:11:13.940 right?
00:11:14.700 And here's something
00:11:15.700 we just learned.
00:11:17.220 Apparently Assange
00:11:18.420 gave Daniel Ellsberg
00:11:20.300 a full copy
00:11:21.740 of all the
00:11:22.280 Chelsea Manning
00:11:23.520 stuff that
00:11:25.080 WikiLeaks had
00:11:26.140 just in case.
00:11:29.080 So Daniel Ellsberg
00:11:30.140 had the full copy
00:11:31.240 the whole time
00:11:32.280 of everything
00:11:33.520 that Assange
00:11:34.520 had produced.
00:11:35.880 and the reason
00:11:37.000 that he'd given
00:11:37.580 it to Ellsberg,
00:11:41.220 the reason he'd
00:11:42.480 given it to Ellsberg
00:11:43.220 is as a
00:11:44.040 emergency backup
00:11:45.120 because he was
00:11:46.440 the one person
00:11:47.180 that he trusted
00:11:47.900 to get it out
00:11:48.580 to the public.
00:11:50.600 That's kind of
00:11:51.380 amazing,
00:11:51.840 isn't it?
00:11:52.440 And we're just
00:11:53.100 finding it out.
00:11:54.520 And then here's
00:11:55.380 the, you know,
00:11:56.600 the added boost
00:11:58.420 on top of it.
00:12:00.040 Ellsberg is saying
00:12:01.000 that if Assange
00:12:02.720 is guilty
00:12:04.140 of simply
00:12:05.860 possessing
00:12:06.580 the documents
00:12:07.260 because I think,
00:12:08.280 I don't know
00:12:08.820 the specific
00:12:09.600 legal argument
00:12:10.900 here,
00:12:11.520 but I think
00:12:12.000 the argument
00:12:12.860 is that simply
00:12:14.120 possessing
00:12:15.740 these secret
00:12:16.560 documents
00:12:17.060 is a crime.
00:12:19.000 And Ellsberg
00:12:19.720 is saying
00:12:20.160 if that's a crime
00:12:20.960 you better indict
00:12:21.700 me
00:12:22.060 because I have
00:12:23.320 them.
00:12:25.300 Right?
00:12:27.380 He illegally
00:12:28.860 has these
00:12:30.620 documents
00:12:31.120 but he would
00:12:32.040 say that he
00:12:32.640 legally has them
00:12:33.540 because they
00:12:34.360 were given
00:12:34.680 to him
00:12:35.180 by somebody
00:12:36.140 he did not
00:12:36.640 steal them.
00:12:38.020 So that's
00:12:38.660 legal if you're
00:12:39.500 not the stealer
00:12:40.240 I guess.
00:12:41.360 Now he makes
00:12:41.940 the point
00:12:42.320 that if this
00:12:42.900 were Great
00:12:43.360 Britain
00:12:43.700 it would
00:12:44.740 definitely
00:12:45.180 be illegal
00:12:45.760 because they
00:12:46.140 have a
00:12:46.380 specific law
00:12:47.340 that says
00:12:48.460 you can't
00:12:49.040 have any
00:12:49.540 secret
00:12:50.120 government
00:12:50.520 documents.
00:12:51.420 That's my
00:12:51.740 understanding.
00:12:52.940 But Ellsberg
00:12:53.760 points out
00:12:54.500 that in the
00:12:54.900 United States
00:12:55.400 we don't
00:12:55.720 have that
00:12:56.060 law.
00:12:57.480 And simply
00:12:58.000 possessing
00:12:58.780 the documents
00:12:59.360 is not a
00:12:59.940 crime.
00:13:00.620 And he'd
00:13:01.340 be willing
00:13:01.680 to test
00:13:02.160 it.
00:13:02.860 Like he's
00:13:03.300 actually
00:13:03.600 begging for
00:13:04.960 the let's
00:13:06.340 bring it
00:13:06.660 on.
00:13:07.440 Let's test
00:13:07.960 this in
00:13:08.320 court.
00:13:09.780 How much
00:13:10.500 do you
00:13:10.720 love that?
00:13:12.500 This is the
00:13:14.440 America that I
00:13:15.240 want to live
00:13:15.700 in.
00:13:16.220 Right?
00:13:16.700 This little
00:13:17.220 scenario where
00:13:19.280 somebody had
00:13:19.860 some information
00:13:20.540 they thought
00:13:20.960 would be good
00:13:21.380 for the
00:13:21.680 citizens.
00:13:22.480 They found
00:13:23.160 the most
00:13:23.640 trustworthy
00:13:24.200 citizen they
00:13:25.100 could find
00:13:25.560 on this
00:13:26.440 topic.
00:13:27.200 According to
00:13:27.960 Assange
00:13:28.520 apparently.
00:13:29.520 Gave him
00:13:30.040 the documents
00:13:30.620 had a good
00:13:31.100 backup plan
00:13:31.900 and then the
00:13:32.960 backup plan
00:13:33.840 is working
00:13:35.260 not exactly
00:13:35.960 the way
00:13:36.360 Assange
00:13:36.800 planned but
00:13:38.140 in a different
00:13:38.680 way.
00:13:39.840 It's working.
00:13:41.240 In other words
00:13:41.780 Ellsberg now
00:13:42.520 just entered
00:13:43.800 the fight.
00:13:45.080 If he had
00:13:45.580 not had
00:13:46.400 those documents
00:13:47.200 Ellsberg is
00:13:48.020 91.
00:13:48.680 Thank you.
00:13:49.520 Ellsberg is
00:13:50.040 91.
00:13:50.840 If Ellsberg
00:13:51.580 were not
00:13:52.380 91 and
00:13:53.700 still willing
00:13:54.320 to fight
00:13:54.860 this would
00:13:55.960 look different.
00:13:57.660 This would
00:13:58.260 look different.
00:14:01.740 All right.
00:14:04.160 So here's
00:14:05.240 what I
00:14:06.360 tentatively
00:14:07.000 favor but
00:14:07.840 I'm going
00:14:08.120 to tell you
00:14:08.460 that I'm
00:14:08.820 not fully
00:14:10.540 informed on
00:14:11.320 the whole
00:14:11.700 Assange
00:14:12.240 WikiLeak
00:14:12.780 thing.
00:14:13.200 I feel
00:14:13.640 like I
00:14:14.440 might have
00:14:14.860 some dark
00:14:16.980 corners there
00:14:18.100 that need
00:14:18.640 a little
00:14:18.860 light in my
00:14:19.460 understanding.
00:14:20.560 But here's
00:14:21.060 where I'm
00:14:21.360 at.
00:14:22.420 I'd like
00:14:23.040 to see a
00:14:23.440 public trial.
00:14:24.860 I don't
00:14:26.560 even know
00:14:26.860 if that's
00:14:27.100 an option.
00:14:28.160 But would
00:14:28.740 we be able
00:14:29.280 to see
00:14:29.580 the trial
00:14:29.980 or would
00:14:30.340 it be a
00:14:30.620 bunch of
00:14:30.940 secret stuff
00:14:31.600 so it
00:14:31.880 would have
00:14:32.000 to be
00:14:32.240 behind
00:14:32.540 closed
00:14:32.960 doors?
00:14:33.760 If it's
00:14:34.280 behind
00:14:34.520 closed
00:14:34.920 doors I
00:14:35.400 don't
00:14:35.560 favor it
00:14:36.020 at all.
00:14:37.380 If it's
00:14:38.800 going to
00:14:39.020 be open
00:14:39.400 to the
00:14:39.700 public as
00:14:40.400 much as
00:14:40.820 possible
00:14:41.480 then I
00:14:42.620 say let's
00:14:43.000 test it.
00:14:45.120 I don't
00:14:46.120 even know
00:14:46.560 why Assange
00:14:47.340 is so
00:14:47.960 concerned
00:14:48.520 about
00:14:49.240 extradition
00:14:51.400 because it's
00:14:52.500 not like
00:14:52.880 he's a
00:14:53.200 free person.
00:14:53.780 I feel
00:14:55.040 like it's
00:14:55.440 his only
00:14:55.800 path to
00:14:56.280 freedom.
00:14:57.560 And if
00:14:57.980 his only
00:14:58.400 path to
00:14:58.840 freedom would
00:14:59.440 also give
00:15:00.040 us American
00:15:01.560 citizens the
00:15:02.340 things we
00:15:02.760 want to
00:15:03.080 know I
00:15:06.320 feel like
00:15:06.780 that's a
00:15:07.100 win-win.
00:15:08.100 Does
00:15:08.360 anybody see a
00:15:08.940 problem with
00:15:09.360 that?
00:15:10.140 What would
00:15:10.520 be the
00:15:10.780 problem with
00:15:11.160 just putting
00:15:11.820 it in court
00:15:12.360 and letting
00:15:12.780 us see how
00:15:13.780 it plays
00:15:14.080 out?
00:15:16.980 He might
00:15:17.620 be
00:15:17.780 abstained.
00:15:18.220 but doesn't
00:15:20.200 he have
00:15:20.460 that risk
00:15:20.900 already?
00:15:21.740 I mean
00:15:21.960 would he
00:15:22.600 be in
00:15:22.940 more danger
00:15:24.600 here than
00:15:25.160 wherever he
00:15:25.700 is?
00:15:26.300 I mean
00:15:26.560 anybody can
00:15:27.400 get to
00:15:27.700 him anywhere.
00:15:30.940 You've been
00:15:31.540 yelling power
00:15:32.220 chords at me.
00:15:33.320 I've been
00:15:33.620 playing the
00:15:34.040 power chords
00:15:34.660 but even
00:15:35.120 the power
00:15:35.520 chords you
00:15:36.180 need these
00:15:36.760 two fingers
00:15:37.480 to be
00:15:38.260 further apart
00:15:38.900 than a
00:15:39.240 normal hand.
00:15:41.000 So I
00:15:42.000 hear what you
00:15:42.440 say.
00:15:42.780 I was
00:15:43.060 practicing
00:15:43.480 my
00:15:43.780 power
00:15:44.020 chords
00:15:44.280 yesterday.
00:15:48.640 Anyway.
00:15:50.320 So let's
00:15:51.380 keep an eye
00:15:51.800 on that.
00:15:53.540 Here's a
00:15:54.140 funny, not
00:15:54.880 a funny
00:15:55.280 story, a
00:15:56.000 horrible
00:15:56.260 story.
00:15:56.840 I'm sorry.
00:15:58.120 Did I say
00:15:58.520 it was
00:15:58.740 funny?
00:15:59.720 This is a
00:16:00.260 tragic,
00:16:00.800 horrible
00:16:01.000 story about
00:16:02.820 a nurse in
00:16:03.840 Germany who
00:16:05.280 gave 8,600
00:16:07.320 patients a
00:16:08.360 saline shot
00:16:09.280 when they
00:16:10.280 thought they
00:16:10.660 were getting
00:16:10.960 a COVID
00:16:11.440 vaccination.
00:16:12.900 So apparently
00:16:13.400 this nurse
00:16:14.060 was anti
00:16:15.680 vax, anti
00:16:17.020 COVID vax
00:16:17.780 and was
00:16:19.240 giving people
00:16:20.040 saline instead
00:16:21.380 of the
00:16:21.780 vaccination.
00:16:23.220 And so
00:16:23.780 she got
00:16:24.460 convicted and
00:16:26.120 she'll serve
00:16:26.800 some time I
00:16:27.540 guess.
00:16:28.680 And here's
00:16:29.300 the, or
00:16:29.960 no, she
00:16:30.820 won't serve
00:16:31.180 time.
00:16:31.500 I think it
00:16:31.800 was a
00:16:32.400 suspended
00:16:34.380 sentence or
00:16:35.580 something.
00:16:35.960 I don't
00:16:36.120 know.
00:16:36.520 But she's
00:16:36.960 got some
00:16:37.260 kind of
00:16:37.540 penalty.
00:16:39.420 But is
00:16:40.320 there anything
00:16:40.700 missing in
00:16:41.940 the story?
00:16:42.380 Now, apparently
00:16:43.760 she admitted
00:16:44.700 that she
00:16:45.380 gave some
00:16:46.020 saline
00:16:46.560 injections, but
00:16:48.400 then they
00:16:48.780 thought, wait,
00:16:49.480 it's probably
00:16:49.940 more than
00:16:50.320 some.
00:16:50.840 And then
00:16:51.100 they started
00:16:51.460 testing all
00:16:52.060 the people
00:16:52.440 who had
00:16:52.880 been to
00:16:53.940 her and
00:16:54.280 they found
00:16:54.620 out that
00:16:54.960 they didn't
00:16:55.280 have antibodies
00:16:55.980 for the
00:16:56.520 vaccination.
00:16:57.200 vaccination.
00:16:58.160 So they
00:16:58.720 determined
00:16:59.100 there's
00:16:59.360 8,600
00:16:59.840 people who
00:17:01.100 should have
00:17:01.460 been vaccinated
00:17:02.160 and weren't.
00:17:03.140 And mostly
00:17:03.560 they were
00:17:03.880 over 70.
00:17:05.400 So it was
00:17:05.760 actually the
00:17:06.260 most vulnerable
00:17:06.900 population.
00:17:09.020 Now, is
00:17:09.680 there anything
00:17:09.960 missing in the
00:17:10.580 story?
00:17:11.840 Any dogs not
00:17:12.940 barking?
00:17:14.460 Thank you.
00:17:15.700 That's right.
00:17:17.580 Did
00:17:17.940 anybody
00:17:20.420 ask the
00:17:22.180 8,600
00:17:22.740 people, how
00:17:25.400 did it work
00:17:25.760 out?
00:17:28.680 How did it
00:17:29.320 work out?
00:17:31.120 Because you
00:17:32.320 know what is
00:17:32.740 conspicuously
00:17:33.580 missing in a
00:17:34.380 story about
00:17:34.900 somebody who's
00:17:35.540 in legal
00:17:36.080 jeopardy?
00:17:37.300 What's
00:17:37.820 conspicuously
00:17:38.680 missing?
00:17:40.380 What was the
00:17:41.360 cost or the
00:17:42.940 outcome of the
00:17:43.840 bad behavior?
00:17:45.360 We know
00:17:46.080 8,600
00:17:46.600 people got a
00:17:47.820 shot and then
00:17:49.120 we can say for
00:17:49.880 sure about the
00:17:50.580 8,600
00:17:51.060 people.
00:17:51.620 What can we
00:17:51.980 say for
00:17:52.340 sure?
00:17:53.480 They did
00:17:54.240 not have
00:17:54.900 vaccination
00:17:55.660 complications.
00:17:57.820 We can say
00:17:58.520 that for sure.
00:17:59.940 We know
00:18:00.340 that the
00:18:00.680 nurse reduced
00:18:01.640 the risk of
00:18:02.580 complications.
00:18:04.180 Now, don't
00:18:05.600 you think they
00:18:06.160 had an
00:18:06.480 obligation to
00:18:07.120 ask if
00:18:07.700 anybody was
00:18:08.560 worse off?
00:18:09.940 Did they
00:18:10.280 have worse
00:18:10.800 outcomes?
00:18:11.920 Did they
00:18:12.380 get COVID
00:18:12.900 and die?
00:18:15.420 I have a
00:18:16.380 suspicion that
00:18:18.700 the data does
00:18:20.180 not support
00:18:20.860 the prosecution.
00:18:21.760 because if
00:18:24.000 it did, and
00:18:25.340 they actually
00:18:25.760 talked to
00:18:26.260 all 8,600
00:18:26.940 people, because
00:18:28.300 I think they
00:18:28.740 had to talk
00:18:29.220 to the 8,600
00:18:30.100 people to
00:18:31.800 test them for
00:18:32.520 antibodies.
00:18:33.700 They had
00:18:34.440 extended
00:18:34.860 conversations,
00:18:35.840 right?
00:18:36.040 So, isn't
00:18:40.620 that kind of
00:18:41.100 conspicuously
00:18:41.820 missing?
00:18:43.980 I'm just
00:18:44.740 saying.
00:18:45.460 It's just
00:18:45.840 not there.
00:18:47.880 All right.
00:18:48.640 Another amazing
00:18:49.620 story.
00:18:50.080 The news is
00:18:51.600 just full of
00:18:52.220 amazing stories
00:18:53.020 today.
00:18:53.820 There's a
00:18:54.260 whistleblower,
00:18:54.980 Dr.
00:18:55.380 Huff, who
00:18:56.520 worked in
00:18:57.020 the Wuhan
00:18:57.460 lab from
00:18:58.240 2014 to
00:18:59.200 2016,
00:19:00.020 including
00:19:00.320 being vice
00:19:01.700 president at
00:19:02.220 one point.
00:19:02.640 So he's a
00:19:03.040 high-ranking
00:19:04.320 Wuhan lab
00:19:05.800 American who
00:19:07.540 says,
00:19:08.380 absolutely,
00:19:10.660 the U.S.
00:19:11.300 government is
00:19:11.900 to blame for
00:19:12.600 the transfer of
00:19:13.520 dangerous biotech to
00:19:14.960 the Chinese.
00:19:16.460 In other words,
00:19:17.300 America is
00:19:18.700 blaming China,
00:19:20.360 China is
00:19:20.940 blaming the
00:19:21.900 U.S., and
00:19:23.580 they were both
00:19:24.320 fucking in on
00:19:25.200 it.
00:19:26.600 That's what the
00:19:27.440 whistleblower says.
00:19:28.700 They were in on
00:19:29.580 it together.
00:19:32.420 Ouch.
00:19:34.700 Now, have I
00:19:37.540 told you that
00:19:38.240 every time there's
00:19:39.320 a conspiracy
00:19:39.900 theory, lately
00:19:41.980 it seems we're
00:19:42.680 finding out it's
00:19:43.660 exactly what you
00:19:44.540 thought it was?
00:19:45.140 What's the
00:19:47.400 worst thing you
00:19:48.200 could have
00:19:48.480 assumed about
00:19:49.200 the Wuhan lab?
00:19:50.820 Is the worst
00:19:51.500 thing you could
00:19:52.060 assume that it
00:19:54.600 was all China?
00:19:55.560 It was just
00:19:56.180 China.
00:19:57.220 China did it,
00:19:58.020 and they're
00:19:58.180 lying about it.
00:19:58.640 Is that the
00:19:59.000 worst thing you
00:19:59.420 could assume?
00:20:00.060 Because that's
00:20:00.480 really bad.
00:20:01.660 That would be
00:20:02.120 bad.
00:20:03.280 Is the worst
00:20:04.060 you could assume
00:20:04.600 it was really
00:20:05.060 America, and
00:20:06.560 we were blaming
00:20:07.280 China, and
00:20:09.040 mostly getting
00:20:09.760 away with it?
00:20:10.340 That'd be bad.
00:20:11.820 I mean, that'd
00:20:12.320 be very, very
00:20:13.000 bad.
00:20:13.340 But you
00:20:14.440 know what
00:20:14.680 would be
00:20:14.960 worse than
00:20:15.460 that?
00:20:16.340 If the
00:20:16.900 United States
00:20:17.500 and China
00:20:18.000 were completely
00:20:18.860 aware that it
00:20:20.200 was both of
00:20:20.800 us, and we
00:20:22.540 just agreed to
00:20:23.240 blame each
00:20:23.720 other so that
00:20:24.240 nobody was
00:20:24.680 quite sure.
00:20:26.480 I feel like it
00:20:27.440 was the worst
00:20:27.960 case scenario.
00:20:29.580 I don't know
00:20:30.280 if it could be
00:20:30.760 any worse.
00:20:32.000 What could be
00:20:32.480 worse?
00:20:33.600 Now, let's
00:20:35.360 back up a little
00:20:35.960 bit.
00:20:36.220 Do you believe
00:20:36.700 the whistleblower?
00:20:38.300 What is the
00:20:39.160 credibility of the
00:20:40.080 whistleblower?
00:20:40.820 It looks like
00:20:41.380 his credentials are
00:20:42.460 solid.
00:20:43.340 It looks like
00:20:44.440 he was in the
00:20:44.900 right place at
00:20:45.460 the right time,
00:20:46.860 roughly, 2016.
00:20:48.320 I don't know if
00:20:48.700 that's the right
00:20:49.120 time.
00:20:52.200 It looks
00:20:52.920 credible to
00:20:53.700 me, but there
00:20:55.440 is one knock
00:20:57.480 against it.
00:20:58.920 It's a pretty
00:20:59.420 big knock.
00:21:00.660 So there's one
00:21:01.340 mark against his
00:21:02.320 credibility.
00:21:03.000 What is it?
00:21:04.220 What's the mark
00:21:05.020 against his
00:21:05.760 credibility?
00:21:06.060 Yeah, follow the
00:21:06.760 money, exactly.
00:21:07.820 He's writing a
00:21:08.480 book.
00:21:08.720 And so here's
00:21:12.220 somebody who's
00:21:12.880 allegedly an
00:21:13.920 American citizen.
00:21:15.540 I say allegedly
00:21:16.580 because he didn't
00:21:17.180 act like one.
00:21:18.640 He didn't act
00:21:19.180 like one.
00:21:19.980 If he waited
00:21:20.800 until now to
00:21:21.760 publish his
00:21:22.300 fucking book for
00:21:24.300 us to know what
00:21:25.020 was going on with
00:21:25.740 the pandemic, I
00:21:27.300 don't trust him
00:21:27.900 at all.
00:21:29.540 He has no
00:21:30.180 credibility in
00:21:30.980 my view.
00:21:32.860 If you're that
00:21:33.740 much of a
00:21:34.260 whore, you're
00:21:36.720 not credible.
00:21:38.240 He could be
00:21:38.660 right.
00:21:39.460 He could be
00:21:39.940 right.
00:21:40.760 Like I'm not
00:21:41.340 saying he's
00:21:41.740 wrong.
00:21:42.420 I'm saying that I
00:21:43.180 wouldn't believe
00:21:43.680 it because this
00:21:44.320 fucking guy said
00:21:45.020 it.
00:21:45.900 Because here's
00:21:46.620 somebody who
00:21:47.020 just threw the
00:21:47.540 whole country
00:21:48.000 under the bus
00:21:48.660 to write a
00:21:49.120 book.
00:21:50.440 Because we
00:21:51.040 kind of needed
00:21:51.540 to know that,
00:21:52.600 if it's true.
00:21:54.540 So I would
00:21:55.580 say credibility
00:21:56.380 low.
00:21:58.280 Low.
00:21:59.160 Unfortunately.
00:22:00.260 I'd love for his
00:22:01.200 credibility to be
00:22:02.260 high.
00:22:02.960 And I don't
00:22:03.380 know if there's
00:22:04.000 any other
00:22:04.600 knock on his
00:22:07.380 credibility.
00:22:08.120 I don't know
00:22:08.500 about his
00:22:08.840 background or
00:22:09.680 his history.
00:22:10.800 But just that
00:22:11.600 one thing.
00:22:13.360 Anytime you hear
00:22:14.160 that somebody
00:22:14.600 saves their
00:22:15.420 blockbuster
00:22:16.280 whistleblower
00:22:17.540 thing for the
00:22:18.220 book, that's
00:22:22.040 just a big hit
00:22:23.200 on your
00:22:23.520 credibility.
00:22:24.540 That's a big
00:22:25.180 hit.
00:22:26.480 So we'll
00:22:27.060 wait on that.
00:22:29.340 I contend
00:22:30.360 that one of
00:22:32.060 the worst
00:22:32.480 things that
00:22:32.980 came out of
00:22:33.440 World War
00:22:33.900 II,
00:22:34.600 aside from
00:22:36.680 60 million
00:22:37.740 people dying,
00:22:39.520 aside from
00:22:40.180 the Holocaust,
00:22:42.180 aside from
00:22:42.820 all of that,
00:22:44.200 there is a
00:22:44.800 ripple effect
00:22:45.360 from World War
00:22:46.000 II that is
00:22:46.560 really, really
00:22:47.400 hurting us.
00:22:48.780 And it's the
00:22:49.180 fact that we
00:22:49.760 can't make any
00:22:50.800 decisions without
00:22:52.280 comparing it to
00:22:53.720 Hitler.
00:22:55.460 How good is
00:22:56.500 our decision
00:22:57.080 making if we
00:22:57.880 can't make any
00:22:58.520 decisions without
00:22:59.300 the Hitler
00:22:59.700 analogy?
00:23:01.380 It's completely
00:23:02.400 crippled.
00:23:03.080 We are
00:23:05.000 permanently under
00:23:05.880 PTSD because
00:23:07.420 all we can see
00:23:08.100 is Hitler
00:23:08.460 everywhere.
00:23:09.820 It's just
00:23:10.140 Hitler,
00:23:10.500 Hitler,
00:23:10.800 Hitler.
00:23:11.540 If you can't
00:23:12.320 make any
00:23:12.800 political argument
00:23:13.560 without a
00:23:14.080 Hitler analogy,
00:23:15.280 there's no
00:23:16.160 critical thinking
00:23:16.900 happening at
00:23:17.420 all.
00:23:18.340 You're just
00:23:18.920 Hitlerized.
00:23:20.380 You're so
00:23:20.880 Hitlerized.
00:23:21.880 So that's like a
00:23:22.800 permanent PTSD
00:23:23.660 that society has.
00:23:25.080 And it really
00:23:26.840 is hurting us
00:23:27.640 because we
00:23:28.840 can't have
00:23:29.220 anything like
00:23:29.960 an even
00:23:30.620 partially
00:23:32.460 rational discussion
00:23:33.760 if one side
00:23:36.280 is saying,
00:23:36.720 Hitler,
00:23:37.680 Hitler.
00:23:38.700 We'll get to
00:23:39.560 more of that.
00:23:40.420 More of that
00:23:41.000 later.
00:23:41.960 So Michael
00:23:42.360 Schellenberger is
00:23:43.420 the third
00:23:44.160 independent
00:23:44.920 journalist who
00:23:46.500 got access to
00:23:47.280 the Twitter
00:23:47.620 files.
00:23:49.040 So now we've
00:23:49.560 seen Matt
00:23:51.000 Taibbi and
00:23:52.020 Barry Weiss and
00:23:53.440 now Michael
00:23:53.960 Schellenberger.
00:23:54.900 I assume
00:23:55.540 Musk was the
00:23:57.020 one who
00:23:57.440 personally
00:23:58.060 selected or
00:23:59.620 approved the
00:24:00.340 journalists because
00:24:02.080 they have
00:24:02.480 something in
00:24:02.980 common.
00:24:04.340 They're all
00:24:04.860 people who at
00:24:05.780 one point were
00:24:06.500 associated with
00:24:07.220 the left who
00:24:08.820 got a little
00:24:09.700 frustrated with
00:24:10.660 the arguments
00:24:11.160 on the left
00:24:11.820 and though you
00:24:13.080 would not call
00:24:13.660 them Republicans
00:24:14.340 because they
00:24:14.940 wouldn't call
00:24:15.380 themselves
00:24:15.760 Republicans,
00:24:17.040 you could say,
00:24:17.860 oh, here are
00:24:18.520 three people that
00:24:19.520 we know can see
00:24:20.200 both sides of
00:24:20.860 an argument.
00:24:22.760 That alone
00:24:23.860 if nothing
00:24:25.700 else comes out
00:24:26.340 of this Twitter
00:24:26.840 stuff, if the
00:24:28.040 only thing that
00:24:28.680 comes out of
00:24:29.140 this is that
00:24:30.280 there were three
00:24:30.920 independent
00:24:31.520 journalists you
00:24:32.320 could believe,
00:24:33.900 and I say
00:24:34.520 believe not
00:24:35.600 because they
00:24:36.480 will get every
00:24:37.160 fact right for
00:24:37.900 the rest of
00:24:38.360 their lives.
00:24:39.400 That's not a
00:24:40.220 realistic expectation,
00:24:41.740 but you could
00:24:42.360 believe them that
00:24:43.040 they're not
00:24:43.540 intending to
00:24:44.500 lie.
00:24:46.320 They're not
00:24:46.740 intending to
00:24:47.600 lie.
00:24:48.680 They're people
00:24:49.400 who have a
00:24:50.000 history of
00:24:50.920 intending to
00:24:51.760 just let you
00:24:52.340 know what's
00:24:53.100 true.
00:24:54.100 That's very
00:24:54.880 big, and I
00:24:56.080 think it's
00:24:56.360 bigger than
00:24:56.880 the Twitter
00:24:57.420 story by far.
00:24:59.300 Imagine, if
00:25:00.040 you will, and
00:25:01.240 it could be
00:25:01.640 that the
00:25:02.160 whole substack
00:25:03.140 situation is
00:25:05.880 really positive
00:25:07.660 because it
00:25:08.340 could create a
00:25:09.080 virtual,
00:25:10.340 independent
00:25:10.840 journalism,
00:25:11.760 I guess it
00:25:12.200 has, virtual
00:25:13.440 independent
00:25:13.920 journalism tool
00:25:15.620 that the
00:25:17.020 public might
00:25:17.600 actually go
00:25:18.360 to for some
00:25:19.060 good information.
00:25:20.920 So something
00:25:21.520 really good is
00:25:22.220 developing there.
00:25:22.860 Anyway, so
00:25:23.840 Schellenberger, who
00:25:24.760 has my highest
00:25:25.760 confidence for
00:25:27.000 being an
00:25:27.720 independent
00:25:28.120 journalist, he
00:25:31.520 reports, he
00:25:32.120 was at task
00:25:33.120 with only
00:25:33.580 reporting for
00:25:34.140 the few days,
00:25:35.680 I think, around
00:25:36.520 right after
00:25:37.080 January 6th, and
00:25:38.880 one of the big
00:25:39.400 things we found
00:25:40.160 is that a
00:25:41.880 number of people
00:25:42.420 were calling for
00:25:43.520 Trump to be
00:25:44.540 kicked off the
00:25:45.060 platform, including
00:25:46.640 Michelle Obama,
00:25:48.240 Obama, and
00:25:49.880 I think the
00:25:51.020 ADL and
00:25:51.900 some others.
00:25:53.240 So there were
00:25:53.720 calls for him
00:25:54.400 to be kicked
00:25:55.060 off.
00:25:56.400 So here are
00:25:57.280 the people we
00:25:58.340 know Twitter
00:25:59.680 targeted, and
00:26:00.700 you can help me
00:26:01.460 fill in the
00:26:01.960 blanks.
00:26:02.860 We know
00:26:03.380 Twitter targeted
00:26:04.340 Trump, Dan
00:26:06.740 Bongino,
00:26:10.920 the libs of
00:26:13.080 TikTok, James
00:26:15.460 Wood, and who
00:26:17.800 else?
00:26:20.280 Jordan?
00:26:20.960 I didn't see
00:26:21.560 that, but
00:26:22.080 oh, Charlie
00:26:23.040 Kirk, Charlie
00:26:24.840 Kirk.
00:26:27.300 Who else is
00:26:28.240 confirmed?
00:26:30.200 Babylon Bee,
00:26:31.380 well, we know
00:26:31.840 that, right?
00:26:33.740 Matt
00:26:34.240 Gates, is
00:26:34.720 Matt
00:26:34.960 Gates
00:26:35.180 confirmed?
00:26:36.420 Roger Stone
00:26:37.140 confirmed?
00:26:37.740 I haven't seen
00:26:38.200 those confirmed.
00:26:40.120 Confirmed.
00:26:41.260 Could you send
00:26:41.740 me, if there's
00:26:43.040 anything that
00:26:43.540 confirms other
00:26:44.440 people, like
00:26:45.540 Matt Gates
00:26:46.100 and Stone,
00:26:46.780 could you
00:26:47.660 send that?
00:26:48.320 Oh, Breitbart
00:26:48.860 is confirmed.
00:26:51.060 Breitbart's.
00:26:52.200 MGT, is she
00:26:53.120 confirmed?
00:26:54.420 I mean, there's
00:26:54.980 things we saw in
00:26:55.620 the public, but
00:26:57.760 have we confirmed
00:26:58.740 it from the
00:26:59.200 Twitter files that
00:27:00.020 they were
00:27:00.460 targeted?
00:27:01.420 Okay.
00:27:02.540 Oh, you'll send
00:27:03.260 me Matt
00:27:03.600 Gates?
00:27:03.780 thank you.
00:27:05.040 So,
00:27:05.560 so here's the
00:27:10.420 thing.
00:27:13.880 Oh, there's so
00:27:14.620 many angles to
00:27:15.280 this.
00:27:15.620 Let's take the
00:27:16.460 Yoel Roth
00:27:17.280 angle first.
00:27:18.380 As you know,
00:27:19.360 Yoel Roth was
00:27:20.300 in charge of who
00:27:21.620 got banned on
00:27:22.840 Twitter, and he
00:27:24.100 seemed to be
00:27:24.720 operating somewhat
00:27:26.040 independently with
00:27:27.120 at least one other
00:27:27.960 executive, and
00:27:29.460 maybe Jack Dorsey
00:27:30.760 wasn't in the loop
00:27:31.940 on some of this
00:27:32.560 stuff.
00:27:32.820 So, so we know
00:27:33.700 that there was
00:27:35.000 stuff happening
00:27:35.660 outside of Jack
00:27:36.900 Dorsey's direct
00:27:38.760 control, or direct
00:27:40.780 intervention or
00:27:41.840 something, I guess.
00:27:43.160 So that much we
00:27:44.040 know.
00:27:46.720 But it turns out
00:27:48.140 that Yoel Roth,
00:27:50.560 when he was, I
00:27:51.720 think, working on
00:27:52.400 his PhD, wrote a
00:27:54.560 paper, and I'm
00:27:55.300 going to be very
00:27:55.780 careful about how I
00:27:56.800 talk about this.
00:27:57.700 He wrote a paper
00:28:00.040 about the app
00:28:01.540 Grindr, and I
00:28:03.280 don't know what
00:28:04.160 the bigger topic
00:28:04.820 was, but the part
00:28:06.040 we know about.
00:28:07.060 He talked about
00:28:07.720 the app Grindr,
00:28:08.880 which is for gay
00:28:09.880 people to do
00:28:10.600 hookups.
00:28:12.560 And he mentioned
00:28:13.500 that there were
00:28:14.420 underage people who
00:28:16.500 were not legally
00:28:17.420 allowed on the app,
00:28:18.680 but they would
00:28:19.140 sneak on.
00:28:19.720 So there were a
00:28:20.200 lot of young
00:28:20.720 people under 18
00:28:21.780 on the app.
00:28:22.800 In his paper, he
00:28:26.800 asked the question,
00:28:29.080 should we only be
00:28:31.500 working on getting
00:28:32.220 them off the app,
00:28:33.560 or is there a way
00:28:34.600 to take into
00:28:35.600 consideration that
00:28:37.480 they're going to
00:28:37.900 get on the app no
00:28:38.660 matter what, and
00:28:40.260 that maybe you
00:28:40.880 should treat them
00:28:41.780 in some way that's
00:28:42.680 better for society?
00:28:44.560 Is there any
00:28:45.200 positive way to
00:28:46.880 make it better
00:28:47.640 keeping underage
00:28:49.280 people on a sex
00:28:50.320 app?
00:28:50.580 Now, from a
00:28:54.000 purely academic
00:28:55.260 perspective, is
00:28:57.720 that a fair
00:28:58.180 question?
00:28:59.320 From a purely
00:29:00.420 academic perspective,
00:29:01.940 which is the
00:29:02.660 context, is that a
00:29:04.180 fair question?
00:29:05.660 Yes, it is.
00:29:06.500 Of course it is.
00:29:07.600 It's a fair
00:29:08.160 question.
00:29:08.720 Because the
00:29:09.180 question is, how
00:29:09.800 do you reduce
00:29:10.500 harm to
00:29:11.720 children?
00:29:13.720 And I don't
00:29:14.900 think he had a
00:29:15.940 conclusion.
00:29:17.200 I think he said,
00:29:18.080 we have to at
00:29:19.080 least be realistic
00:29:19.840 and say, they're
00:29:21.380 already being
00:29:21.960 harmed.
00:29:23.080 Is there anything
00:29:23.660 you can do to
00:29:24.300 help?
00:29:26.260 All right.
00:29:28.220 My sound is good
00:29:29.300 on my end, so if
00:29:30.160 there's something
00:29:30.540 happening, I can't
00:29:32.580 control it.
00:29:34.880 So, all right.
00:29:38.460 So, somebody
00:29:41.240 researched that and
00:29:42.660 found out that that
00:29:43.460 was in his
00:29:44.080 background.
00:29:44.580 And then, Elon
00:29:47.500 Musk actually
00:29:48.580 tweeted it.
00:29:50.400 Elon Musk actually
00:29:51.540 tweeted that it
00:29:54.040 explains a lot.
00:29:56.040 It explains a lot
00:29:57.560 that the guy in
00:29:58.380 charge of who gets
00:29:59.320 kicked off the
00:30:00.400 system had written
00:30:02.980 a paper questioning
00:30:04.460 whether children
00:30:05.660 should be on a
00:30:06.320 sex app.
00:30:07.820 Now, remember,
00:30:08.720 Twitter was also
00:30:09.700 being accused of
00:30:11.240 not taking seriously
00:30:12.380 enough, the
00:30:13.680 pedophiles that
00:30:14.480 were active on
00:30:15.240 Twitter.
00:30:18.220 So, you see
00:30:19.660 that this all
00:30:20.280 ends up looking
00:30:21.260 like the same
00:30:21.880 thing.
00:30:23.040 So, I would
00:30:25.080 like to point
00:30:26.120 out that Elon
00:30:28.260 Musk now holds
00:30:29.340 the record for
00:30:31.200 the most extreme
00:30:32.460 firing of an
00:30:33.540 employee I've
00:30:34.340 ever seen.
00:30:36.600 Sometimes you
00:30:37.380 just get fired.
00:30:38.920 Oh, we have to
00:30:39.740 downsize.
00:30:40.260 I'm sorry.
00:30:41.480 You'll have to
00:30:42.000 go.
00:30:42.800 Bad enough.
00:30:43.800 That's a bad
00:30:44.400 day.
00:30:45.420 But imagine
00:30:45.960 being fired and
00:30:47.820 then within a
00:30:48.520 week, the person
00:30:49.860 who fired you
00:30:50.560 outs you on
00:30:51.540 Twitter as
00:30:52.720 pedophile friendly.
00:30:55.440 That is more
00:30:56.480 fired than anybody
00:30:58.120 has ever been
00:30:58.980 fired.
00:31:00.100 You can't get
00:31:00.780 fired harder
00:31:01.580 than that.
00:31:02.920 Now, let me
00:31:04.020 very quickly say
00:31:06.200 that there is no
00:31:07.780 accusation that
00:31:10.060 Yoel Roth was
00:31:11.580 involved in any
00:31:12.400 way with any
00:31:13.700 underage promotion
00:31:15.680 of kids or
00:31:16.780 activity, right?
00:31:17.940 There is no, no,
00:31:19.360 no evidence that
00:31:21.380 he personally is
00:31:22.580 friendly with any
00:31:25.540 pedo stuff, right?
00:31:26.640 I want to be as
00:31:27.420 clear as possible.
00:31:28.520 I don't think he's
00:31:29.520 been accused and
00:31:31.260 there's no evidence
00:31:31.900 I've seen that would
00:31:32.700 suggest it
00:31:33.220 whatsoever.
00:31:33.580 You're worried, but
00:31:36.100 that's a different
00:31:36.640 subject.
00:31:38.720 But it does seem
00:31:39.680 to be true that
00:31:42.080 someone with a
00:31:43.320 documented
00:31:44.440 background of
00:31:46.060 being, let's say,
00:31:47.280 flexible, flexible
00:31:50.560 with underage
00:31:51.800 stuff was in
00:31:54.340 charge of making
00:31:54.960 sure there wasn't
00:31:55.620 any on, or at
00:31:57.240 least he was one
00:31:57.740 of the people who
00:31:58.700 could have been
00:31:59.180 involved in getting
00:32:00.460 rid of the pedo
00:32:01.620 stuff on Twitter.
00:32:02.240 Now, that's about
00:32:03.720 as bad as you
00:32:04.660 can, that's like
00:32:05.920 the worst situation
00:32:06.700 you can even
00:32:07.100 imagine.
00:32:09.120 But the fact that
00:32:10.620 Musk actually
00:32:11.740 tweeted that out,
00:32:14.840 I've, that's the
00:32:16.460 most aggressive
00:32:17.200 firing I've ever
00:32:19.420 seen in my life.
00:32:20.860 I've never seen
00:32:21.460 anybody fired
00:32:22.080 harder than that.
00:32:23.280 That's as fired
00:32:24.280 as you can get.
00:32:26.260 Wow.
00:32:26.820 Wow.
00:32:27.700 So,
00:32:27.920 here's a question.
00:32:35.340 Did Jack Dorsey
00:32:36.960 lie to Congress?
00:32:38.200 I just watched
00:32:38.760 the clip of it.
00:32:41.460 And he was
00:32:43.920 asked if, let's
00:32:46.000 see, what was the
00:32:46.460 exact question?
00:32:50.260 Does Twitter, quote,
00:32:52.940 try to censor
00:32:53.940 conservative voices?
00:32:55.140 Does Twitter censor
00:32:59.640 conservative voices?
00:33:02.120 And Jack said, no.
00:33:04.180 And he was sitting
00:33:04.840 right next to the
00:33:05.620 person who was in
00:33:06.320 charge of the
00:33:07.940 censoring.
00:33:09.240 Is that a lie?
00:33:12.440 Well, what would be
00:33:13.400 the evidence, what
00:33:14.640 would be the evidence
00:33:15.500 that Twitter censors
00:33:17.860 conservatives?
00:33:18.740 What's the evidence
00:33:19.520 we've seen so far?
00:33:20.420 We've seen Trump,
00:33:23.880 you know, Kirk,
00:33:25.100 Bongino, and they're
00:33:26.840 all Republicans,
00:33:28.360 right?
00:33:29.120 Or at least
00:33:29.800 conservatives.
00:33:31.640 True or false,
00:33:32.700 100% of the people
00:33:33.760 we know have been
00:33:34.600 targeted, that we
00:33:35.280 know, just the ones
00:33:36.780 we know, are all
00:33:38.380 conservatives.
00:33:39.120 True.
00:33:40.220 True, right?
00:33:40.920 Is it also true that
00:33:42.800 each of them had a
00:33:44.480 specific terms of
00:33:46.280 service infraction or
00:33:49.920 could be interpreted
00:33:51.560 as an infraction?
00:33:52.760 Is that true or
00:33:53.320 not?
00:33:56.380 Berenson was not
00:33:57.900 conservative, but he
00:33:58.780 was certainly siding
00:33:59.660 with them in this.
00:34:04.500 No?
00:34:05.280 Yes?
00:34:05.940 False?
00:34:06.980 All right.
00:34:08.220 So, here's the
00:34:09.460 question.
00:34:10.900 In terms of a
00:34:12.640 courtroom, if
00:34:14.620 somebody says, I
00:34:15.500 have 10 examples of
00:34:17.380 conservatives who
00:34:18.360 were banned, but we
00:34:20.720 used an excuse in
00:34:22.220 each case, there
00:34:23.620 was like a specific
00:34:24.560 harm that we
00:34:27.420 called out that
00:34:29.060 these 10 people
00:34:29.900 were engaged in.
00:34:32.040 So, does that
00:34:32.540 prove, if you know
00:34:34.020 that those 10
00:34:34.680 things are true, or
00:34:36.580 even 20, whatever
00:34:38.180 it is, if you know
00:34:39.220 that there are 10
00:34:39.900 absolutely confirmed
00:34:41.220 cases where people
00:34:42.820 were shadowbanned,
00:34:44.700 does that mean that
00:34:46.360 they had a policy of
00:34:47.620 shadowbanning
00:34:48.280 conservatives, if you
00:34:49.720 knew those were all
00:34:50.660 true, all 10 of
00:34:51.480 them, and you knew
00:34:53.000 that there was no
00:34:53.800 example, not one
00:34:54.660 example, of a
00:34:56.320 Democrat being
00:34:57.400 ...
00:34:57.700 Unfortunately, it's
00:35:00.080 just examples.
00:35:01.380 It's just examples.
00:35:03.340 Right?
00:35:04.140 And those examples
00:35:05.400 could be explained
00:35:06.520 another way just as
00:35:08.780 easily.
00:35:09.120 So, one
00:35:11.640 explanation is that
00:35:12.640 Twitter conspired and
00:35:14.440 were consciously
00:35:15.160 trying to suppress
00:35:16.920 conservatives, and
00:35:18.440 everything that
00:35:19.140 happened looks
00:35:19.700 exactly like that,
00:35:20.680 right?
00:35:21.660 Well, I definitely
00:35:22.760 would agree that
00:35:24.180 what we've seen looks
00:35:25.260 exactly like that's
00:35:26.480 true, but
00:35:27.980 suggestive of.
00:35:30.520 In other words,
00:35:31.060 there's nothing that's
00:35:31.800 counterfactual to it.
00:35:33.780 There's nothing that
00:35:34.560 rules it out, and
00:35:35.840 it certainly looks
00:35:36.440 exactly like it.
00:35:38.240 But the evidence we
00:35:39.900 have only supports
00:35:42.140 that they acted that
00:35:43.880 way, which is
00:35:45.720 different than a
00:35:46.360 policy.
00:35:47.620 And why would they
00:35:48.580 act that way unless
00:35:49.620 they had a policy?
00:35:51.440 Why would everybody
00:35:52.480 act the same way
00:35:53.720 unless there was a
00:35:55.180 policy?
00:35:56.440 And the answer is
00:35:57.300 more obvious than a
00:35:58.400 policy, because they
00:35:59.780 were all Democrats.
00:36:01.260 They just had the
00:36:01.960 same worldview.
00:36:03.300 So when they looked
00:36:04.060 for harm, they all
00:36:05.780 saw it in the same
00:36:06.480 place.
00:36:06.880 And when they
00:36:08.480 looked for harm
00:36:09.180 caused by Democrats,
00:36:10.620 they just didn't
00:36:11.160 see it.
00:36:12.340 So their job was to
00:36:13.520 get rid of harm, so
00:36:15.360 they got rid of the
00:36:16.020 harm they could see,
00:36:17.620 which to them was
00:36:19.160 all a bunch of
00:36:19.900 conservative stuff.
00:36:21.360 They did not get
00:36:22.360 rid of the harm that
00:36:23.120 they didn't see,
00:36:24.620 because to them it
00:36:25.380 didn't look harmful.
00:36:27.320 And so would that
00:36:29.180 be considered Twitter
00:36:31.380 having a, let's say,
00:36:33.300 a policy of
00:36:35.180 discriminating against
00:36:36.880 conservatives.
00:36:38.260 Because if Jack
00:36:39.200 says, no, we don't
00:36:40.180 have a policy, I
00:36:43.000 don't see anything
00:36:43.860 that says that's a
00:36:44.740 lie.
00:36:46.360 Because no document
00:36:47.600 has said, let's get
00:36:48.840 these conservatives.
00:36:50.600 No person has, no
00:36:52.060 person has testified
00:36:53.540 that, yes, we were
00:36:55.120 after conservatives.
00:36:55.960 So you have no
00:36:57.940 testimony and no
00:36:59.620 documents that would
00:37:01.620 refute what Jack
00:37:02.820 said in Congress.
00:37:04.660 There's no
00:37:05.260 counterfactual.
00:37:06.660 The only evidence
00:37:08.080 you have is not
00:37:09.520 conclusive, it's
00:37:10.840 anecdotal.
00:37:12.500 Anecdotal evidence
00:37:13.540 has no legal value,
00:37:17.340 really, unless there's
00:37:19.120 just tons of it, and
00:37:20.000 then you can make a
00:37:21.560 case based on
00:37:23.320 circumstantial evidence.
00:37:24.620 But this is not even
00:37:26.340 close to that level.
00:37:28.520 This is one anecdote
00:37:29.620 that's just repeated.
00:37:32.720 Now, imagine a jury
00:37:34.700 trial.
00:37:36.140 Imagine you took just
00:37:37.340 what you have now and
00:37:38.180 you didn't learn
00:37:38.640 anything else, and you
00:37:39.380 took it to a jury.
00:37:40.760 You said, hey, jury,
00:37:42.000 we found all these
00:37:43.000 cases of conservatives
00:37:44.280 being suppressed and
00:37:46.100 no cases of anybody
00:37:47.220 else being suppressed.
00:37:48.740 So there's our case.
00:37:51.120 And then what does
00:37:52.660 the jury say?
00:37:53.540 In their minds, they
00:37:55.120 say, well, where's
00:37:56.840 this information come
00:37:57.760 from?
00:37:58.860 How do we know it's
00:37:59.640 just ten conservatives?
00:38:01.340 Who told us?
00:38:02.660 Oh, three people who
00:38:04.480 are identified as being
00:38:05.820 friendly to the right
00:38:06.940 told us that the left
00:38:10.160 was discriminating.
00:38:11.280 That's how you know?
00:38:12.720 Your source is only
00:38:13.820 people on the right
00:38:14.780 looked at things you
00:38:16.560 haven't looked at and
00:38:17.380 we can't see.
00:38:18.360 We don't know if they
00:38:19.380 skipped anything.
00:38:20.320 We just know that
00:38:21.940 they only told us
00:38:23.380 about the people on
00:38:24.720 the right, which is
00:38:25.440 exactly what people
00:38:27.040 who lean right would
00:38:28.000 tell you.
00:38:29.840 You see that you
00:38:30.900 can never get a
00:38:31.520 conviction based on
00:38:34.860 what you have now.
00:38:36.660 Right?
00:38:38.360 Now, I'm definitely
00:38:40.300 not telling you that
00:38:42.180 I know whether Twitter
00:38:43.440 did or did not, you
00:38:44.740 know, collude or
00:38:45.980 scheme to take down
00:38:47.720 Democrats or take
00:38:49.520 down Republicans.
00:38:50.560 I don't know.
00:38:51.920 Anything, you know,
00:38:52.940 certainly we found
00:38:54.100 anything's possible.
00:38:55.520 Like every other news
00:38:56.660 story teaches this
00:38:58.320 lesson.
00:38:59.960 You know those people
00:39:00.780 you thought you could
00:39:01.520 trust?
00:39:02.500 Not so much.
00:39:03.920 That's like every news
00:39:04.960 story.
00:39:06.060 Every news story is the
00:39:07.020 same.
00:39:08.040 So, I'd like to talk
00:39:11.640 to you about the bad
00:39:12.660 arguments on my team.
00:39:15.180 My team is the
00:39:16.480 following.
00:39:16.820 My team is anybody
00:39:19.260 who thinks that
00:39:20.960 Twitter did some
00:39:22.680 things that were
00:39:23.380 bad, at least in
00:39:25.300 terms of the outcome,
00:39:26.680 and would like to
00:39:27.420 know more about it
00:39:28.220 and thinks we need to
00:39:29.380 be kind of aggressive
00:39:30.460 in getting to the
00:39:31.560 bottom of it.
00:39:32.400 That's my team.
00:39:33.720 And my team also
00:39:34.640 thinks that there
00:39:35.220 are probably some bad
00:39:36.040 things that happened.
00:39:37.280 Right?
00:39:37.760 But what I don't like
00:39:39.080 is when people who
00:39:40.400 agree with me on the
00:39:41.360 big picture have
00:39:42.960 arguments that are
00:39:43.800 absurd.
00:39:44.160 So, I'm going to
00:39:45.840 talk about the people
00:39:46.560 who agree with me
00:39:47.620 that Twitter did a
00:39:49.560 bad thing and we
00:39:50.280 need to figure out
00:39:51.020 how to stop it and
00:39:52.280 know what happened.
00:39:54.560 Don't do the
00:39:55.380 following arguments.
00:39:57.800 I don't like the
00:39:58.860 argument that Jack
00:40:00.460 lied to Congress
00:40:01.460 because we don't
00:40:02.300 have evidence of
00:40:03.040 that.
00:40:03.780 We have evidence
00:40:04.540 that he said
00:40:05.260 things.
00:40:06.660 We have only
00:40:07.320 evidence that he
00:40:08.000 talked.
00:40:09.440 Evidence that
00:40:10.120 somebody talked
00:40:11.120 and said something
00:40:12.440 you didn't think
00:40:13.240 they should have
00:40:14.140 said is not
00:40:14.880 evidence of a
00:40:16.080 crime.
00:40:17.700 We don't know
00:40:18.480 why he knew,
00:40:19.620 right?
00:40:20.060 Because that's
00:40:20.520 important.
00:40:21.540 What did Jack
00:40:22.200 know?
00:40:23.260 Because there's
00:40:23.980 plenty of evidence
00:40:24.820 in the documentation
00:40:25.880 that he was not
00:40:27.160 brought into all
00:40:28.040 of the decisions.
00:40:29.560 He was brought
00:40:30.240 into the top ones
00:40:31.020 but not all of them.
00:40:33.720 So, I don't like
00:40:34.760 the argument that
00:40:35.540 Jack lied unless
00:40:36.740 you have some
00:40:37.240 evidence.
00:40:38.440 And there's no
00:40:38.960 evidence he lied.
00:40:39.780 It might be true
00:40:41.860 but no evidence
00:40:43.240 has been presented.
00:40:44.920 So, that's a
00:40:45.480 weak argument.
00:40:47.340 Which could turn
00:40:48.220 into a strong
00:40:49.640 argument if we had
00:40:50.400 different information
00:40:51.300 but with what we
00:40:52.080 have.
00:40:53.140 How about this
00:40:53.700 one?
00:40:54.300 People said,
00:40:55.640 I noted that it
00:40:57.640 appeared from the
00:40:58.360 internal documentation
00:40:59.280 that the people who
00:41:01.080 worked at Twitter
00:41:01.700 believed they were
00:41:02.720 doing something good
00:41:03.820 for the country.
00:41:04.800 Would you agree?
00:41:06.440 Now, it's not
00:41:07.520 your opinion but from
00:41:09.600 what we've seen,
00:41:10.480 doesn't it look like
00:41:11.200 they thought they
00:41:11.800 were doing the
00:41:12.240 right thing?
00:41:15.220 And then people
00:41:16.040 said to me,
00:41:16.820 Scott, Scott, Scott,
00:41:18.600 oh, you were so
00:41:19.460 in the wrong place
00:41:20.860 on this.
00:41:22.020 It doesn't matter
00:41:22.840 what they thought.
00:41:23.720 Why?
00:41:24.280 Why doesn't it
00:41:25.200 matter what they
00:41:25.880 were thinking?
00:41:27.520 Why is it
00:41:28.240 irrelevant that they
00:41:29.180 thought they were
00:41:29.800 doing the right
00:41:30.380 thing?
00:41:32.740 Go ahead, say it.
00:41:35.100 Say it.
00:41:37.240 Say it.
00:41:37.900 Say it.
00:41:39.600 There you go.
00:41:40.880 Thank you.
00:41:42.620 Hitler.
00:41:45.440 Because we're
00:41:46.740 poisoned by Hitler
00:41:47.900 analogies, we can't
00:41:50.240 think of this
00:41:50.700 correctly.
00:41:52.000 We don't have the
00:41:53.140 capability to look at
00:41:54.520 this situation in any
00:41:56.500 rational way because
00:41:58.200 we're all crippled.
00:41:59.920 We're all crippled by
00:42:01.340 Hitler.
00:42:02.340 It's all we can see.
00:42:03.460 If all you see is
00:42:05.700 Hitler in this
00:42:06.420 situation, you're
00:42:08.440 not putting any
00:42:10.260 kind of critical
00:42:10.940 thought on it.
00:42:12.100 You're just
00:42:12.600 Hitler poisoned.
00:42:14.200 So anybody who
00:42:15.860 brings up Hitler in
00:42:17.520 any situations that's
00:42:18.760 not literally,
00:42:19.840 actually the
00:42:20.460 Holocaust, they
00:42:22.900 just have Hitler
00:42:23.600 poisoning, and you
00:42:24.780 should ignore
00:42:25.240 everything they say.
00:42:26.920 It's just Hitler
00:42:27.840 poisoning.
00:42:28.240 Now, some people
00:42:30.340 said to me, Scott, it
00:42:32.280 doesn't matter that
00:42:33.180 they had good
00:42:33.820 intentions in their
00:42:34.760 own mind, right?
00:42:36.660 It only matters how
00:42:37.920 they acted because
00:42:39.560 of the Hitler
00:42:40.840 argument.
00:42:42.300 Those Nazis thought
00:42:43.380 they were doing maybe
00:42:44.420 something good for the
00:42:45.320 world.
00:42:45.640 So, just like
00:42:48.420 Nazis, right?
00:42:49.860 Twitter employees,
00:42:51.240 Nazis, exactly the
00:42:52.980 same.
00:42:53.440 They thought they
00:42:54.040 were doing something
00:42:54.720 good, but you
00:42:55.440 can't excuse them
00:42:59.300 for that, can you?
00:43:00.740 Because I was told
00:43:01.860 that people's
00:43:03.160 intentions are
00:43:04.380 irrelevant.
00:43:05.900 If what they do is
00:43:07.160 evil, they must be
00:43:08.780 held accountable for
00:43:09.600 the evil.
00:43:10.520 Their internal
00:43:11.180 thoughts are
00:43:11.740 irrelevant to that,
00:43:12.560 right?
00:43:13.220 Would everybody
00:43:13.700 agree with that?
00:43:14.300 That it's what
00:43:15.720 they do that
00:43:16.400 matters, it's not
00:43:17.820 what they're
00:43:18.120 thinking.
00:43:18.640 Their internal
00:43:19.140 intentions, and
00:43:20.240 would you agree
00:43:20.760 that internal
00:43:21.560 intentions don't
00:43:23.160 have any role in
00:43:24.860 the legal system?
00:43:27.000 Would you agree
00:43:27.580 that the legal
00:43:28.140 system does not
00:43:29.640 care what your
00:43:30.360 internal thinking
00:43:31.180 is?
00:43:31.500 It only cares
00:43:31.940 what you did,
00:43:33.000 right?
00:43:33.900 And that's why
00:43:35.060 we treat self-defense
00:43:36.680 the same as
00:43:37.880 murder.
00:43:39.080 So, if you kill
00:43:40.100 somebody in self-defense,
00:43:41.320 let's say you blow
00:43:41.900 their head off,
00:43:42.920 that's why they put
00:43:43.860 you in jail for
00:43:44.980 exactly the same
00:43:45.900 amount as if you
00:43:47.480 murdered them with
00:43:48.340 premeditation.
00:43:49.740 Because your
00:43:50.420 intention doesn't
00:43:51.080 make any difference
00:43:51.740 in the legal
00:43:52.240 system.
00:43:53.080 It only matters
00:43:53.720 that you killed
00:43:54.180 somebody.
00:43:56.520 What?
00:43:57.960 What?
00:43:59.080 Oh, you're saying
00:43:59.880 that those are
00:44:00.340 treated differently.
00:44:02.040 Oh, oh.
00:44:03.380 So, now you're
00:44:04.180 changing your
00:44:04.660 opinion that the
00:44:06.280 intention of the
00:44:07.140 act actually is
00:44:08.120 completely determinative
00:44:09.720 of how you're
00:44:10.900 treated.
00:44:11.180 Huh.
00:44:13.860 Please, don't
00:44:18.280 tell me that the
00:44:19.000 intention doesn't
00:44:19.900 matter.
00:44:21.040 The intention is
00:44:21.840 all that matters.
00:44:23.300 It's all that
00:44:23.920 matters.
00:44:25.620 For understanding
00:44:26.780 how to deal
00:44:27.940 with it, how to
00:44:28.520 fix it, whether
00:44:29.940 or not there's any
00:44:30.720 legal repercussions,
00:44:32.600 the intention is
00:44:34.200 all that matters.
00:44:35.600 It's, like, way,
00:44:36.480 way the most
00:44:37.120 important thing.
00:44:37.760 Because, um, in
00:44:44.000 all likelihood, in
00:44:46.440 all likelihood, what
00:44:47.600 we've found out so
00:44:48.560 far is exactly what
00:44:50.460 Jack Dorsey told
00:44:51.700 you a year ago.
00:44:54.220 A year ago, Jack
00:44:55.620 Dorsey told you we
00:44:56.680 have too many
00:44:57.460 Democrats, and so
00:44:59.020 we're probably acting
00:44:59.920 like Democrats when
00:45:02.240 we're making
00:45:02.660 decisions.
00:45:03.180 I mean, I'm
00:45:04.980 paraphrasing, but he
00:45:05.840 said that directly, and
00:45:07.460 I think probably more
00:45:08.220 than once.
00:45:09.540 He, he, even Jack
00:45:10.900 Dorsey said, whoa,
00:45:11.860 whoa, whoa, we've
00:45:12.300 got too many lefties
00:45:13.140 here, so we're
00:45:14.460 acting like a lefty
00:45:15.460 organization, when
00:45:16.940 that was never the
00:45:17.680 point of it.
00:45:18.620 Like, he didn't
00:45:19.240 approve of it.
00:45:20.160 He used that as a
00:45:21.640 criticism of his own
00:45:22.920 entity, that it was
00:45:24.800 too lefty.
00:45:26.160 Now, here are two
00:45:28.540 possibilities to how
00:45:29.980 everything you saw
00:45:31.140 could happen.
00:45:32.540 One possibility, it
00:45:34.240 was an explicit
00:45:35.120 Twitter policy to
00:45:37.180 suppress conservatives,
00:45:39.280 and that would fit
00:45:40.000 everything you've
00:45:40.680 seen.
00:45:41.600 Would you agree?
00:45:43.100 A hundred percent of
00:45:44.000 what you've seen so
00:45:44.720 far would be
00:45:45.340 compatible with that
00:45:46.260 theory, that they
00:45:47.540 were actually,
00:45:48.960 literally, knowingly
00:45:50.540 just suppressing
00:45:52.440 opinions they didn't
00:45:53.780 like.
00:45:55.580 Totally fits the
00:45:56.620 facts.
00:45:57.800 Here's something
00:45:58.580 else that fits the
00:45:59.340 facts.
00:45:59.680 nothing like that
00:46:01.600 was happening, but
00:46:02.960 they were all
00:46:03.440 Democrats, and so
00:46:05.480 they just saw the
00:46:06.200 world through a
00:46:06.760 Democrat lens.
00:46:08.120 When they looked at
00:46:09.060 Trump, they saw
00:46:09.960 a monster.
00:46:11.420 When they looked at,
00:46:12.480 I don't know,
00:46:14.020 grooming, as you
00:46:15.600 would say, grooming
00:46:16.900 in schools, maybe
00:46:18.540 they just saw
00:46:19.300 progressive sexual
00:46:21.240 education.
00:46:22.680 It didn't look
00:46:23.520 dangerous to them.
00:46:24.900 Maybe when you saw
00:46:25.800 Antifa, you saw a
00:46:27.540 domestic terror group,
00:46:28.580 maybe they saw
00:46:30.260 protesters for
00:46:31.980 Black Lives Matter,
00:46:34.140 like, you know,
00:46:34.780 good people and a
00:46:35.940 good cause.
00:46:37.340 Couldn't you get to
00:46:38.260 the same place?
00:46:40.340 Wouldn't everything
00:46:41.440 you've seen be
00:46:42.220 explained just by
00:46:43.460 having lots of
00:46:44.080 Democrats there?
00:46:45.640 Couldn't you explain
00:46:46.400 all of it with
00:46:48.080 that?
00:46:49.480 Because you can,
00:46:50.960 very easily.
00:46:52.600 There's no stretch,
00:46:53.820 there's no spin,
00:46:55.380 there's no pretzel
00:46:56.600 logic, it's just
00:46:58.060 right down the
00:46:58.640 middle.
00:46:59.960 How about everybody
00:47:00.940 was a Democrat and
00:47:01.980 so they acted like
00:47:02.760 Democrats?
00:47:06.000 Or, it's a big old
00:47:07.600 conspiracy and they
00:47:09.300 were secretly trying
00:47:10.200 to change the country
00:47:11.120 but yet it didn't
00:47:12.280 show up in any of
00:47:12.960 their documentation and
00:47:14.040 there's not a single
00:47:14.760 whistleblower, not a
00:47:16.320 single whistleblower
00:47:17.260 says, yeah, we talked
00:47:18.860 about it, we were just
00:47:19.600 trying to put down the
00:47:20.940 conservatives.
00:47:22.060 Not one?
00:47:23.140 There's not one
00:47:23.800 whistleblower in all of
00:47:24.780 Twitter.
00:47:26.020 Really?
00:47:27.260 Not one whistleblower
00:47:28.540 to say, oh yeah, we
00:47:30.120 actually just talked
00:47:30.880 about this privately
00:47:31.740 and it was just all
00:47:33.020 about suppressing.
00:47:34.180 Not one.
00:47:36.640 Now, maybe we get
00:47:37.740 one.
00:47:39.080 Now, and I want to
00:47:39.700 be as clear as
00:47:40.740 possible, later when
00:47:42.600 you tell me I'm
00:47:43.420 wrong, if new
00:47:45.320 information comes up,
00:47:46.860 no, you're wrong
00:47:47.540 again.
00:47:48.120 That would be you
00:47:48.780 being wrong twice.
00:47:50.460 If new information
00:47:51.820 comes out, then I
00:47:53.440 might change my
00:47:54.100 opinion, based on
00:47:55.780 the new information.
00:47:57.200 That's not wrong.
00:47:58.300 I'm telling you we
00:47:59.180 don't know what's
00:48:00.940 going on because we
00:48:01.680 don't have the
00:48:02.120 information.
00:48:02.680 So don't act like
00:48:03.520 you know when you
00:48:04.840 don't know.
00:48:06.680 Right?
00:48:07.360 So if later we
00:48:08.380 know, then I'll say,
00:48:09.540 oh yeah, now we
00:48:10.100 know.
00:48:11.840 All right.
00:48:16.940 All right.
00:48:19.520 And so we've not
00:48:20.460 seen any direct
00:48:21.200 evidence that
00:48:21.980 Twitter was
00:48:23.380 targeting
00:48:24.360 conservatives.
00:48:25.400 We've seen
00:48:25.980 anecdotes, which
00:48:27.040 are very convincing
00:48:28.120 and could mean
00:48:30.200 that they had said
00:48:30.820 it directly, but
00:48:32.420 we're short of
00:48:32.940 that standard.
00:48:38.300 Let's see.
00:48:41.960 And more to
00:48:42.760 that point.
00:48:46.620 What is your
00:48:47.460 point of view on
00:48:48.060 the following three
00:48:48.760 things?
00:48:49.120 If you complained
00:48:50.120 that the 2020
00:48:50.940 election looked
00:48:51.800 rigged, are you
00:48:53.700 trying to protect
00:48:54.640 the public or
00:48:55.400 destroy it?
00:48:56.540 No.
00:48:57.440 The people who
00:48:58.820 said 2020 was
00:48:59.780 rigged, were they
00:49:02.340 trying to protect
00:49:03.080 the republic or
00:49:04.440 destroy it?
00:49:07.140 Sort of the point
00:49:07.980 of view, isn't it?
00:49:09.460 People on the right
00:49:10.580 say they're
00:49:10.980 protecting it.
00:49:11.640 People on the left
00:49:12.220 say they're
00:49:12.620 destroying it.
00:49:13.200 How about if
00:49:15.500 you were a
00:49:16.120 January 6er and
00:49:17.960 you protested, were
00:49:19.100 you trying to
00:49:19.780 overthrow the
00:49:20.460 republic or were
00:49:21.660 you trying to
00:49:22.060 protect it?
00:49:23.100 Were you trying to
00:49:23.660 overthrow the
00:49:24.260 republic or protect
00:49:26.040 it?
00:49:27.600 Conservatives would
00:49:28.260 say protect.
00:49:29.740 Democrats would
00:49:30.400 say overthrow.
00:49:33.140 And likewise, if
00:49:34.200 you were Twitter,
00:49:34.900 were you trying to
00:49:35.500 protect the public
00:49:36.260 or were you trying
00:49:36.780 to rig an election?
00:49:37.600 If you were the
00:49:39.600 Twitter employees,
00:49:40.440 were you trying to
00:49:40.900 protect the country
00:49:41.740 or a Reagan
00:49:42.300 election?
00:49:45.080 Both.
00:49:46.520 Maybe both.
00:49:48.380 Yeah, maybe both.
00:49:49.780 Those are not
00:49:50.460 really separable.
00:49:52.500 There's news that
00:49:53.600 Trump turned down
00:49:54.880 a prisoner swap
00:49:55.920 for that arms
00:49:57.340 dealer I talked
00:49:58.000 about, Victor
00:49:58.560 Bout, for just
00:50:00.220 Paul Whelan.
00:50:01.220 So before the
00:50:01.840 WNBA player was
00:50:03.060 nabbed, Trump
00:50:04.900 had the offer of
00:50:06.600 the arms dealer
00:50:07.320 for the ex-Marine
00:50:09.440 and he turned it
00:50:10.920 down, according
00:50:12.440 to John Bolton.
00:50:14.400 Is John Bolton
00:50:15.400 an accurate source
00:50:16.880 for Trump-related
00:50:18.620 behind-the-scenes
00:50:19.500 information?
00:50:20.260 No.
00:50:20.800 No, he's not.
00:50:22.100 No.
00:50:22.680 So there may be
00:50:23.700 some context here
00:50:24.640 that's missing.
00:50:26.500 Now, I would not
00:50:28.460 be surprised if he
00:50:29.680 turned down the
00:50:30.300 deal.
00:50:31.740 But there's a
00:50:32.800 big difference
00:50:34.120 between that
00:50:35.820 and, you know,
00:50:38.420 the simple version
00:50:39.320 we're hearing.
00:50:40.000 There may be more
00:50:40.820 to it.
00:50:41.880 So I don't know.
00:50:42.840 Could be technically
00:50:43.600 true, but missing
00:50:44.880 some detail.
00:50:47.260 All right.
00:50:47.920 Here's some really
00:50:48.880 interesting events.
00:50:51.060 You might know that
00:50:52.040 Carrie Lake has
00:50:52.720 filed a lawsuit
00:50:53.480 about the midterms
00:50:54.600 and her Arizona
00:50:56.340 situation.
00:50:56.920 and part of her
00:51:00.220 filing includes
00:51:02.580 the claim that
00:51:04.800 they got an
00:51:05.720 expert on voting
00:51:07.000 machines and
00:51:07.980 they specifically
00:51:08.640 got an expert
00:51:09.520 on these kinds
00:51:17.300 of voting
00:51:17.680 machines.
00:51:19.020 All right.
00:51:19.300 So Carrie Lake
00:51:20.220 gets an expert on
00:51:22.220 these kinds of
00:51:23.060 voting machines.
00:51:23.680 And the expert
00:51:24.740 says that the
00:51:26.400 mass problems
00:51:27.260 they had with
00:51:27.740 the voting
00:51:28.080 machines on
00:51:28.680 election day
00:51:29.300 could not have
00:51:31.040 been created
00:51:31.880 unintentionally.
00:51:36.280 What?
00:51:39.000 From a technical
00:51:40.200 perspective, it
00:51:41.560 couldn't have been
00:51:42.200 an accident.
00:51:44.320 Now, that's
00:51:46.180 one of those
00:51:46.700 opinions that,
00:51:48.760 you know, you
00:51:49.160 could imagine
00:51:49.680 another expert
00:51:50.440 saying, oh,
00:51:50.880 yeah, it could
00:51:51.820 be an accident.
00:51:52.540 Let me explain
00:51:53.140 how.
00:51:53.940 So you can
00:51:54.420 imagine there
00:51:54.980 might be a
00:51:55.380 counter to
00:51:55.800 that.
00:51:56.980 But that's
00:51:57.480 the claim.
00:51:58.680 Somebody with
00:51:59.300 extensive knowledge
00:52:00.320 of those
00:52:00.720 specific machines
00:52:01.780 says that
00:52:02.840 exact problem
00:52:03.700 could not be
00:52:04.380 happening by
00:52:05.260 accident.
00:52:06.340 That that
00:52:06.780 could only
00:52:07.320 happen by a
00:52:08.080 human intervention
00:52:08.880 intentionally.
00:52:12.040 Now, of
00:52:12.880 course, this
00:52:13.480 is not proof.
00:52:14.880 This is just
00:52:15.600 the evidence
00:52:16.200 being offered
00:52:16.980 up.
00:52:17.900 But here's
00:52:18.760 what's interesting.
00:52:19.520 Rich Barris,
00:52:20.880 who on Twitter
00:52:21.800 goes by the
00:52:22.760 People's
00:52:23.200 Pundit, and
00:52:23.920 he was very
00:52:24.380 involved in
00:52:25.020 the election
00:52:26.100 irregularity claims.
00:52:28.060 And he tweeted
00:52:28.560 this, and I
00:52:29.420 don't know if
00:52:29.780 you could have,
00:52:30.520 maybe you
00:52:30.960 couldn't have
00:52:31.240 done this a
00:52:32.020 year ago, but
00:52:32.960 he said the
00:52:33.340 2022 Arizona
00:52:35.040 midterm elections
00:52:35.960 were not
00:52:37.100 conducted
00:52:37.640 legitimately.
00:52:38.720 Now, keep in
00:52:39.160 mind he said
00:52:39.640 that on Twitter.
00:52:41.660 Could you say
00:52:42.460 that on Twitter
00:52:43.440 a year ago?
00:52:46.440 Could you?
00:52:47.000 I feel like
00:52:49.180 you would have
00:52:49.460 been kicked
00:52:49.800 off, right?
00:52:50.540 Kicked off
00:52:50.940 of Twitter.
00:52:51.920 But there it
00:52:52.380 is.
00:52:53.020 But then he
00:52:53.520 follows it up,
00:52:54.360 and I think
00:52:54.720 this gives it
00:52:55.560 a little extra
00:52:56.120 weight.
00:52:56.680 He says, I
00:52:57.500 have no
00:52:57.860 problem extending
00:52:58.740 invites to
00:52:59.580 publicly debate
00:53:01.500 me over the
00:53:02.160 fact.
00:53:03.120 All fake
00:53:03.700 gurus are
00:53:05.120 welcome to
00:53:05.620 apply.
00:53:06.880 A word of
00:53:07.500 caution.
00:53:08.060 This is from
00:53:08.580 Rich Barris.
00:53:09.740 He says, you're
00:53:10.360 not as smart as
00:53:11.060 you think you
00:53:11.600 are, and I'm
00:53:12.200 going to
00:53:12.540 embarrass you.
00:53:13.180 That's a
00:53:16.620 pretty gutsy
00:53:17.760 claim, isn't
00:53:18.540 it?
00:53:19.160 Now, how
00:53:20.060 long have I
00:53:20.620 been saying
00:53:21.660 we need some
00:53:22.680 kind of a
00:53:23.480 national level
00:53:25.200 debate show,
00:53:27.100 a podcast or
00:53:28.040 live stream,
00:53:29.020 where outside of
00:53:30.660 the government
00:53:31.140 we can actually
00:53:32.660 have a real
00:53:33.280 debate without
00:53:34.720 weird time
00:53:35.420 limits where
00:53:36.040 people just
00:53:36.620 talk until
00:53:37.680 the time's
00:53:38.080 up, and
00:53:38.860 have actually
00:53:39.460 maybe people
00:53:40.620 fact-checking,
00:53:41.860 like a real
00:53:42.540 debate.
00:53:43.440 Where the
00:53:43.880 point of it
00:53:44.300 is not to
00:53:44.720 win the
00:53:45.080 debate, the
00:53:46.460 point of it
00:53:46.940 is to find
00:53:47.420 out what's
00:53:47.780 true, which
00:53:49.100 would look
00:53:49.500 different than
00:53:49.980 a debate.
00:53:50.700 Debates are
00:53:51.320 artificial contests
00:53:52.540 that are not
00:53:53.680 designed to
00:53:55.240 tell you what's
00:53:55.720 true.
00:53:56.760 It's an
00:53:57.320 artificial contest.
00:53:58.900 What you want
00:53:59.480 is something to
00:54:00.020 help you know
00:54:00.600 what's true.
00:54:01.580 So the debate
00:54:02.320 would be sort
00:54:03.460 of the surface
00:54:04.000 level, but
00:54:05.340 below that you
00:54:06.040 need to have
00:54:06.460 the experts and
00:54:07.380 researchers sitting
00:54:08.240 right there at
00:54:09.080 the same time,
00:54:10.340 and then when
00:54:10.840 somebody makes a
00:54:11.500 claim, they
00:54:12.520 also are
00:54:12.900 clacking away
00:54:13.480 on their
00:54:13.760 laptops, and
00:54:15.000 then they
00:54:15.300 go, okay, you
00:54:16.420 made this
00:54:16.840 following claim.
00:54:18.140 Here's a study
00:54:18.820 that backs you.
00:54:20.120 Here's a study
00:54:20.740 that debunks
00:54:21.920 you.
00:54:22.840 Here's what's
00:54:23.440 good and bad
00:54:23.920 about those two
00:54:24.600 studies.
00:54:25.960 Then we know
00:54:26.680 something.
00:54:28.900 Then we would
00:54:29.780 know something.
00:54:31.920 But the people
00:54:32.480 I don't want to
00:54:33.140 see debate, or
00:54:33.900 I just saw
00:54:34.400 Newt Gingrich and
00:54:36.520 Ann Coulter did
00:54:37.700 some debate
00:54:38.360 against some
00:54:39.240 Democrats.
00:54:40.460 I don't want to
00:54:41.000 see that.
00:54:42.340 Because as soon
00:54:42.880 as you put Newt
00:54:43.480 Gingrich or Ann
00:54:44.160 Coulter, it's all
00:54:45.340 about them.
00:54:47.120 It's no longer
00:54:48.020 about the issue,
00:54:48.700 it's about those
00:54:49.220 two people.
00:54:50.160 You can't have
00:54:50.760 that kind of
00:54:51.340 person trying to
00:54:53.060 tell you what's
00:54:53.600 true, because
00:54:54.640 they're too
00:54:55.580 identifiable with
00:54:57.400 a position.
00:54:58.580 You want somebody
00:54:59.380 who looks like
00:54:59.980 they don't care
00:55:00.600 which way it
00:55:01.100 ends up.
00:55:02.180 Someone who
00:55:02.980 legitimately says,
00:55:04.280 you know, I'm
00:55:05.200 just following the
00:55:05.800 facts.
00:55:06.160 So wherever
00:55:07.080 this lands, it
00:55:07.860 lands, and then
00:55:08.960 we'll deal with
00:55:09.540 it, because I
00:55:09.920 just want what's
00:55:10.540 good for the
00:55:10.960 country.
00:55:11.640 You want people
00:55:12.180 like that.
00:55:13.400 People who can
00:55:13.880 actually change
00:55:14.520 their mind in
00:55:15.040 public.
00:55:16.120 You want somebody
00:55:16.900 who's so
00:55:17.420 intellectually honest
00:55:18.660 that if they
00:55:19.700 lost a debate
00:55:20.600 in public, they
00:55:21.920 would say it.
00:55:23.420 Like right in
00:55:24.220 front of you.
00:55:25.740 That would be a
00:55:26.640 rare person.
00:55:28.080 A very rare
00:55:28.920 person.
00:55:29.500 Oh yeah, you
00:55:30.040 just, basically
00:55:31.080 you just wiped
00:55:32.200 the floor with
00:55:33.240 me.
00:55:33.860 Yeah, you won
00:55:34.360 that debate.
00:55:35.480 Yep, that
00:55:36.040 point you
00:55:36.380 made, I
00:55:36.760 had not
00:55:37.040 considered, and
00:55:37.700 that changes
00:55:38.480 my mind.
00:55:39.900 Surely there
00:55:40.700 are some
00:55:41.080 people like
00:55:41.560 that somewhere
00:55:42.120 in the world.
00:55:42.780 It would be
00:55:43.020 good to see
00:55:43.440 them debate.
00:55:45.240 So I
00:55:46.920 would like
00:55:49.200 to boost
00:55:50.280 Rich Baris'
00:55:51.300 offer, and I
00:55:53.840 do think he
00:55:54.360 knows enough
00:55:54.820 that he would
00:55:55.060 be a good
00:55:55.660 person to
00:55:56.480 have the
00:55:56.960 debate.
00:55:57.700 Now I
00:55:58.020 don't know
00:55:58.380 him personally,
00:55:59.920 but what I've
00:56:01.320 been following
00:56:01.940 suggests that
00:56:02.760 he's fact-based.
00:56:03.760 so fact-based
00:56:05.900 that I
00:56:06.340 could imagine,
00:56:07.620 I don't
00:56:07.940 know it, but
00:56:08.620 I could
00:56:09.480 imagine that
00:56:11.460 if he were in
00:56:12.060 a debate and
00:56:12.640 he lost, that
00:56:14.300 he might
00:56:14.580 actually just
00:56:15.020 say it.
00:56:15.900 Oh yeah, did
00:56:17.180 my best, these
00:56:18.640 claims look like
00:56:19.480 they were pretty
00:56:20.560 suspicious, but
00:56:21.420 now your argument
00:56:22.240 makes sense, and
00:56:23.060 I accept that.
00:56:24.640 I think he
00:56:25.220 could do it.
00:56:26.360 Now, that's
00:56:27.540 pretty optimistic,
00:56:28.640 isn't it?
00:56:30.160 Do you
00:56:30.620 think I
00:56:30.940 could do
00:56:31.220 it?
00:56:32.320 Do you
00:56:32.800 think I
00:56:33.140 could be in
00:56:33.720 a debate in
00:56:34.260 which I was
00:56:34.620 really strongly
00:56:35.360 held a
00:56:35.780 position, but
00:56:37.040 in the course
00:56:37.620 of the debate
00:56:38.260 in public, could
00:56:40.040 I change my
00:56:40.700 mind if I
00:56:41.460 got undebated?
00:56:42.660 Yes, I
00:56:43.060 could.
00:56:43.880 Yes, I
00:56:44.400 could do
00:56:44.620 that.
00:56:45.640 Yep.
00:56:46.780 I could do
00:56:47.420 that right in
00:56:47.960 front of you.
00:56:48.900 And the
00:56:49.360 reason I
00:56:49.740 could do
00:56:50.000 it is I've
00:56:50.480 created a
00:56:51.340 brand that
00:56:53.040 allows it.
00:56:54.440 So I
00:56:55.040 would not be
00:56:55.660 going counter to
00:56:58.400 my self-image
00:56:59.260 or the image
00:56:59.920 that you have
00:57:00.480 of me if I
00:57:01.540 changed my
00:57:02.120 mind in
00:57:02.560 public.
00:57:03.400 In fact, that
00:57:03.980 would be on
00:57:04.540 brand, wouldn't
00:57:05.500 it?
00:57:06.340 For me, that
00:57:06.900 would be totally
00:57:07.420 on brand.
00:57:09.040 Alan Dershowitz,
00:57:10.040 same thing.
00:57:10.720 I just saw his
00:57:11.240 name in the
00:57:11.680 comments.
00:57:12.420 If Alan
00:57:12.860 Dershowitz did
00:57:13.700 a public
00:57:14.120 debate and
00:57:15.540 somebody bested
00:57:16.520 him in the
00:57:17.020 debate, I
00:57:18.880 believe he
00:57:19.600 would say it.
00:57:21.080 And he would
00:57:21.480 say it before
00:57:21.920 the debate was
00:57:22.760 over.
00:57:23.600 I think he'd
00:57:24.080 say, you know
00:57:24.440 what?
00:57:25.060 I came here
00:57:25.820 honestly thinking
00:57:26.800 I had the
00:57:27.280 stronger argument.
00:57:28.680 After 60
00:57:29.620 minutes of
00:57:30.060 hearing the
00:57:30.380 other side, I
00:57:31.000 actually changed
00:57:31.580 my mind.
00:57:32.500 And I think
00:57:32.860 you should
00:57:33.180 consider that
00:57:34.180 that was a
00:57:36.000 superior argument.
00:57:38.560 Dershowitz could
00:57:39.220 say that.
00:57:39.840 Do you know
00:57:40.140 why?
00:57:41.700 Because he's
00:57:43.000 created a brand
00:57:43.760 for himself where
00:57:44.560 that's allowed.
00:57:46.260 Geraldo could do
00:57:46.920 it too.
00:57:47.860 Geraldo could do
00:57:48.580 that because he
00:57:49.500 also has a
00:57:50.020 brand where he
00:57:51.460 can say, oh,
00:57:52.880 I'm going to
00:57:53.620 follow the
00:57:54.120 information.
00:57:55.940 Yeah.
00:57:56.040 But do you
00:57:57.720 notice how few
00:57:58.460 people you
00:57:59.000 could come
00:57:59.760 up with that
00:58:01.380 you would trust
00:58:02.120 could change
00:58:03.040 their mind right
00:58:04.720 in front of
00:58:05.140 you?
00:58:05.820 Very, very
00:58:06.620 small number of
00:58:07.340 people.
00:58:08.100 And the only
00:58:08.540 reason they
00:58:09.020 could is because
00:58:10.720 they've created
00:58:11.660 the brand
00:58:12.900 expectation that
00:58:14.080 there are people
00:58:14.520 who can follow
00:58:15.180 the data wherever
00:58:16.400 it goes.
00:58:17.400 Even at the risk
00:58:19.020 of embarrassment
00:58:19.660 and even at
00:58:20.840 the risk of
00:58:21.640 personal whatever.
00:58:24.620 I see Victor
00:58:25.520 David Hansen
00:58:26.300 being mentioned.
00:58:27.520 I'm going to
00:58:27.980 question that
00:58:28.620 one, not
00:58:29.760 because of
00:58:30.920 any criticism
00:58:31.720 of him, but
00:58:33.100 because I'm
00:58:33.640 not aware of
00:58:34.460 anything he's
00:58:36.380 done that's
00:58:36.840 counter to,
00:58:38.000 let's say,
00:58:40.720 the rights
00:58:41.140 narrative.
00:58:42.380 If he has
00:58:43.200 that background,
00:58:45.600 then yes,
00:58:46.380 you would add
00:58:46.820 him to the
00:58:47.200 list.
00:58:48.200 But I'm not
00:58:48.820 aware of it.
00:58:49.660 Tim Poole,
00:58:54.420 somebody
00:58:54.780 suggests, maybe.
00:58:56.020 I don't know.
00:59:02.720 Offer to
00:59:03.360 debate Trump
00:59:03.900 on persuasion.
00:59:05.040 Well, I don't
00:59:05.700 think he and
00:59:06.160 I would debate
00:59:06.720 anything.
00:59:08.420 You know,
00:59:08.900 Greenwald is
00:59:09.780 now,
00:59:11.860 Greenwald may
00:59:12.740 have passed
00:59:13.400 too far into
00:59:14.440 the right
00:59:16.540 leaning part
00:59:17.700 of the world.
00:59:18.200 it's been a
00:59:20.480 long time
00:59:20.960 since I saw
00:59:21.540 Greenwald
00:59:22.100 disagree with
00:59:23.120 the right.
00:59:24.960 It's been a
00:59:25.680 long time.
00:59:28.040 And while I
00:59:29.380 have ultimate
00:59:30.460 respect for
00:59:31.980 Greenwald's
00:59:32.660 reporting, even
00:59:33.440 though I don't
00:59:33.840 like him
00:59:34.180 personally,
00:59:34.820 which I think
00:59:36.580 is important
00:59:37.040 to say,
00:59:37.880 because I think
00:59:38.600 that helps my
00:59:39.320 credibility,
00:59:40.240 I don't like
00:59:40.920 Greenwald
00:59:41.280 personally,
00:59:42.480 because he
00:59:42.940 once tried to
00:59:44.660 slap me down
00:59:45.280 on Twitter,
00:59:46.080 and I
00:59:46.600 didn't think
00:59:47.200 it was a
00:59:47.700 legitimate.
00:59:48.880 So I just
00:59:49.760 have a personal
00:59:50.320 grudge against
00:59:51.020 him, because
00:59:52.140 he's basically
00:59:52.920 a dick.
00:59:54.380 But the work
00:59:55.360 that he does,
00:59:56.120 I think is so
00:59:57.080 valuable for the
00:59:57.900 country, that I
00:59:59.480 have ultimate
01:00:00.440 respect for his
01:00:01.380 professional work.
01:00:03.240 He just might be
01:00:04.000 sort of a dick.
01:00:05.400 But I'm pretty
01:00:06.940 sure that's
01:00:09.400 common to a lot
01:00:10.140 of people.
01:00:11.220 Maybe even me.
01:00:12.080 Maybe even
01:00:13.820 me.
01:00:20.220 Why do you
01:00:20.800 believe the
01:00:21.140 assessment of
01:00:21.640 who, they're
01:00:23.980 all subjective?
01:00:25.720 Well, it's not a
01:00:26.620 question of who
01:00:27.180 I'd believe.
01:00:28.680 It's a question
01:00:29.540 of, are there
01:00:30.760 some people that
01:00:32.520 you know could
01:00:33.980 change their
01:00:34.600 opinion in front
01:00:35.480 of you?
01:00:36.820 And I think
01:00:37.500 there are some
01:00:37.860 people that you
01:00:38.400 could know that
01:00:38.920 with some
01:00:39.260 certainty, and
01:00:40.300 I'm one of
01:00:40.760 them.
01:00:41.460 And I think
01:00:41.860 Dershowitz is
01:00:42.500 another.
01:00:43.700 You know, when
01:00:44.200 you say Tim
01:00:44.800 Poole, you're
01:00:45.740 starting to get
01:00:46.380 into, I don't
01:00:46.920 know, I would
01:00:48.420 like to think
01:00:48.980 you would.
01:00:50.000 Like, I have a
01:00:50.600 general positive
01:00:51.280 feeling about
01:00:51.900 Tim Poole, so I
01:00:53.220 think maybe you
01:00:53.760 would.
01:00:54.520 But I think that
01:00:55.260 Dershowitz is a
01:00:56.100 guarantee, and I
01:00:57.900 think I'm a
01:00:58.360 guarantee, because
01:01:00.040 we've both done
01:01:00.680 it.
01:01:01.000 We've both done
01:01:01.580 it in public.
01:01:04.220 Tucker changed
01:01:04.860 on the rack.
01:01:05.520 Yeah, years
01:01:06.180 later.
01:01:07.300 Years later.
01:01:08.220 You know, that's
01:01:09.200 an interesting one.
01:01:09.940 Could Tucker
01:01:11.040 change his
01:01:11.660 mind in real
01:01:13.060 time?
01:01:13.500 He changed his
01:01:14.140 mind in Iraq, but
01:01:15.720 that seemed to be
01:01:16.300 after the fact.
01:01:19.900 Could Joe
01:01:20.720 Rogan?
01:01:21.640 Joe Rogan
01:01:22.260 could.
01:01:23.300 Yeah, Joe
01:01:23.720 Rogan could.
01:01:24.620 Could Russell
01:01:25.320 Brand?
01:01:26.000 Yes.
01:01:27.320 Could Steve
01:01:27.840 Crowder?
01:01:28.580 Hmm, there's an
01:01:29.500 interesting one.
01:01:31.160 I don't know.
01:01:32.480 I have no reason
01:01:33.400 to think he
01:01:33.940 couldn't, but
01:01:35.180 that's different
01:01:35.700 from saying there's
01:01:36.580 evidence to suggest
01:01:37.820 that he would.
01:01:40.360 That's a little
01:01:41.000 bit different.
01:01:41.840 Because there are
01:01:42.280 a number of
01:01:42.620 people I would
01:01:43.020 say, well, I
01:01:43.600 have no reason to
01:01:44.320 think they
01:01:44.660 wouldn't change
01:01:45.420 their mind, but
01:01:46.480 they don't have
01:01:46.880 any history of
01:01:47.600 it that I'm
01:01:48.920 aware of.
01:01:50.500 How about
01:01:51.040 Jon Stewart?
01:01:52.540 Yeah.
01:01:53.860 Yep, he could.
01:01:54.920 Jon Stewart
01:01:55.420 could.
01:01:56.740 Tulsi could, of
01:01:57.660 course.
01:02:00.080 Yeah.
01:02:00.620 Isn't it
01:02:01.040 interesting, though?
01:02:01.760 I feel like we
01:02:02.500 need almost a
01:02:04.260 separate category
01:02:05.460 for people who
01:02:07.400 could change
01:02:12.420 their mind.
01:02:14.580 Doesn't it seem
01:02:15.420 like that's
01:02:15.840 something useful?
01:02:18.240 Because if you
01:02:19.080 listen to people
01:02:19.920 who can't change
01:02:20.620 their mind, what
01:02:21.260 are you listening
01:02:21.720 to?
01:02:22.560 You're not
01:02:23.060 listening to
01:02:23.580 anything useful.
01:02:25.300 You're listening
01:02:25.780 to propaganda.
01:02:28.360 Yeah, the
01:02:29.040 Weinsteins, two
01:02:30.540 good examples.
01:02:32.140 The Weinsteins
01:02:32.760 based on, I
01:02:34.380 believe, just
01:02:35.060 intellectual
01:02:36.220 honesty.
01:02:38.240 I think they
01:02:38.880 just have a
01:02:39.320 higher principle
01:02:40.880 for intellectual
01:02:41.620 honesty, so I
01:02:42.340 think they
01:02:42.600 would go
01:02:42.900 wherever the
01:02:43.480 data went.
01:02:47.260 That's my
01:02:47.920 impression.
01:02:50.500 Dr. Drew,
01:02:51.480 same thing.
01:02:52.160 Dr. Drew,
01:02:52.880 he has a
01:02:54.880 history of
01:02:55.840 being able to
01:02:56.500 take a hit
01:02:57.400 by not saying
01:02:58.940 the popular
01:02:59.660 thing.
01:03:00.580 So he's got
01:03:01.080 a long history
01:03:01.680 of going where
01:03:03.260 he feels the
01:03:04.060 data is going.
01:03:04.900 So that's a
01:03:05.320 good one.
01:03:10.240 Yeah.
01:03:11.220 All right.
01:03:11.620 Well, I
01:03:12.760 don't want to
01:03:13.240 mention too
01:03:14.560 many names.
01:03:17.080 And I see
01:03:18.000 all of you
01:03:18.540 clankers.
01:03:19.740 I do see
01:03:20.420 your comments.
01:03:22.100 It's just not
01:03:22.860 something I want
01:03:23.440 to interact
01:03:23.860 with.
01:03:26.740 All right.
01:03:27.700 So, but I
01:03:29.560 do see your
01:03:29.960 comments.
01:03:30.300 So if you
01:03:31.440 thought you
01:03:31.800 weren't being
01:03:32.220 seen, I
01:03:32.920 can tell you
01:03:34.280 that you
01:03:34.600 are being
01:03:34.920 seen.
01:03:37.320 All right.
01:03:39.860 Then Carrie
01:03:40.680 Lake responded
01:03:42.020 to Rich
01:03:42.720 Barris saying
01:03:43.260 he wanted to
01:03:43.820 do a public
01:03:44.440 debate.
01:03:45.380 She said,
01:03:45.960 I'd pay to
01:03:46.400 watch this
01:03:46.860 debate.
01:03:48.800 Now, isn't
01:03:51.700 that the
01:03:52.720 thing?
01:03:55.840 I would pay
01:03:56.800 to watch
01:03:57.280 this debate.
01:03:57.980 I would
01:03:58.100 pay to watch
01:03:59.160 this debate.
01:04:00.300 I would
01:04:01.180 pay to watch
01:04:01.680 that debate.
01:04:04.440 I would
01:04:05.040 pay actual
01:04:05.660 money, 10
01:04:08.100 bucks.
01:04:09.760 But I
01:04:10.300 definitely pay
01:04:10.800 a dollar.
01:04:13.120 You don't
01:04:13.900 think there's
01:04:14.280 any podcaster
01:04:15.180 who's willing
01:04:16.420 to host a
01:04:17.080 debate that
01:04:18.720 people, probably
01:04:19.540 a million people
01:04:20.320 would pay a
01:04:20.780 dollar for.
01:04:22.080 To do, you
01:04:22.920 know, two
01:04:23.220 hours of work
01:04:23.880 and you make
01:04:24.300 a million
01:04:24.640 dollars.
01:04:25.100 somebody's
01:04:30.000 saying that
01:04:30.500 sticks and
01:04:31.080 hammer clarified
01:04:31.900 within 48
01:04:33.040 hours so I
01:04:33.700 should unblock
01:04:34.380 him.
01:04:37.660 What's the
01:04:38.340 clarification
01:04:39.340 could there
01:04:40.080 be?
01:04:41.020 If I think
01:04:41.840 he's a
01:04:42.200 dick, how
01:04:44.020 do you
01:04:44.280 clarify that?
01:04:46.360 I don't know.
01:04:47.040 I'm not
01:04:49.020 interested.
01:04:52.040 He didn't
01:04:52.700 mean to
01:04:53.060 insult me.
01:04:54.380 No, he
01:04:54.740 meant to be
01:04:55.260 condescending.
01:04:58.060 He wrote
01:04:58.900 something which
01:04:59.900 was clearly
01:05:00.480 intended to be
01:05:01.280 condescending.
01:05:01.880 Yeah, it
01:05:07.980 takes one to
01:05:08.460 know one.
01:05:09.040 Yeah, that's
01:05:10.680 true.
01:05:11.560 It takes one to
01:05:12.460 know one.
01:05:14.140 All right.
01:05:15.180 No, so
01:05:15.860 here's the
01:05:16.220 thing.
01:05:17.120 It wasn't his
01:05:17.940 first offense
01:05:18.680 and when
01:05:21.640 people speak
01:05:22.880 to me in a
01:05:23.480 condescending
01:05:24.080 way, I
01:05:25.440 have a right
01:05:25.980 to take
01:05:27.620 them out of
01:05:28.080 my attention
01:05:29.980 span forever.
01:05:31.880 It doesn't
01:05:33.080 matter to me
01:05:33.600 that he
01:05:34.400 doesn't like
01:05:34.980 it.
01:05:35.840 That's not
01:05:36.200 really.
01:05:37.560 Be a man.
01:05:39.440 Be a man.
01:05:41.060 All right,
01:05:41.320 here's a good
01:05:41.660 question.
01:05:43.420 Is it more
01:05:43.960 manly just to
01:05:44.700 make your
01:05:45.040 decision and
01:05:45.640 move on?
01:05:46.800 Or is it
01:05:47.580 more manly to
01:05:48.360 keep revisiting
01:05:49.300 your decision?
01:05:50.720 Which is
01:05:51.140 more manly?
01:05:53.320 I don't think
01:05:54.140 anything's more
01:05:54.700 manly.
01:05:58.440 Let me give
01:05:59.800 you a little
01:06:00.100 micro lesson
01:06:00.800 about something.
01:06:01.620 I think that
01:06:02.160 maybe this
01:06:03.240 applies.
01:06:05.600 How many
01:06:06.300 of you have
01:06:07.140 the following
01:06:07.760 philosophy of
01:06:08.600 life?
01:06:09.680 And I'll
01:06:10.060 give you the
01:06:10.600 alternative.
01:06:11.800 The first
01:06:12.380 philosophy is
01:06:13.100 once you've
01:06:13.640 made a
01:06:13.960 decision,
01:06:14.900 you just
01:06:15.940 move on.
01:06:17.580 And there
01:06:18.040 are other
01:06:18.240 people who
01:06:18.580 make a
01:06:18.880 decision,
01:06:19.380 but it's
01:06:19.580 never really
01:06:20.100 made.
01:06:20.860 It's always
01:06:21.340 revisited
01:06:22.020 forever.
01:06:23.300 Maybe,
01:06:23.920 maybe,
01:06:24.520 maybe,
01:06:24.800 maybe,
01:06:25.380 right?
01:06:28.020 I take the
01:06:29.300 decision and
01:06:30.120 move on.
01:06:31.400 And then
01:06:31.780 when somebody
01:06:32.240 says you
01:06:32.620 made a
01:06:32.980 wrong decision
01:06:33.840 and here's
01:06:34.320 why,
01:06:35.500 even if I
01:06:36.200 believe them,
01:06:37.480 I move on
01:06:38.140 anyway.
01:06:39.980 I move on
01:06:40.900 anyway.
01:06:41.380 And that's
01:06:41.860 really hard to
01:06:42.720 explain.
01:06:45.140 Other people
01:06:45.800 do.
01:06:46.120 And I'm not
01:06:46.740 even sure if
01:06:47.280 it's rational.
01:06:48.660 it's just
01:06:50.640 that my
01:06:51.000 experience of
01:06:51.720 life is
01:06:52.820 that moving
01:06:53.340 forward is
01:06:54.300 always better
01:06:54.780 than not.
01:06:56.580 And that as
01:06:57.320 soon as you're
01:06:57.840 in your
01:06:58.320 analysis paralysis,
01:07:00.160 that's all
01:07:00.860 bad.
01:07:01.680 But moving
01:07:02.320 forward the
01:07:02.960 wrong way can
01:07:04.520 at least help
01:07:05.120 you adjust.
01:07:06.040 You know,
01:07:06.260 if you run
01:07:06.720 into a wall,
01:07:07.380 you adjust.
01:07:08.280 But I
01:07:08.700 always say,
01:07:09.980 okay,
01:07:10.220 we're done
01:07:10.600 with that
01:07:10.900 decision.
01:07:11.800 And it's
01:07:12.360 really hard if
01:07:13.440 you're making
01:07:14.220 decisions with
01:07:15.100 women,
01:07:16.040 like a
01:07:16.440 partner.
01:07:16.780 because women
01:07:18.560 will often
01:07:19.020 say accurately,
01:07:20.560 oh, new
01:07:21.280 information has
01:07:22.100 emerged, let's
01:07:23.740 go re-look at
01:07:24.840 this decision.
01:07:26.160 And then I
01:07:26.700 say, I don't
01:07:27.620 go backwards.
01:07:29.580 I'm going to
01:07:30.160 make a new
01:07:30.640 problem with my
01:07:31.480 new decision and
01:07:32.240 then I'll fix
01:07:32.680 that because
01:07:33.880 that's in the
01:07:34.340 future.
01:07:35.440 But I'm not
01:07:36.040 going to go
01:07:36.340 back.
01:07:37.160 I just don't
01:07:37.680 go backwards.
01:07:39.040 And boy,
01:07:39.800 this is a
01:07:40.880 relationship
01:07:41.480 killer, let me
01:07:42.360 tell you.
01:07:43.220 I don't
01:07:43.880 recommend it to
01:07:44.600 you at all.
01:07:45.560 It's a total
01:07:46.160 relationship
01:07:46.720 killer.
01:07:47.500 Because try to
01:07:48.060 explain to
01:07:48.560 somebody you
01:07:49.020 shouldn't do
01:07:49.440 something that's
01:07:50.020 obviously right.
01:07:51.840 Well, you
01:07:52.200 obviously made the
01:07:53.120 wrong decision
01:07:53.740 based on this
01:07:54.520 new information.
01:07:55.800 Why in the
01:07:56.340 world wouldn't
01:07:56.820 you go back
01:07:57.320 and rethink
01:07:57.720 it?
01:07:58.980 Because I
01:08:00.760 don't go
01:08:01.080 backwards.
01:08:02.460 I just don't
01:08:03.220 go backwards.
01:08:04.440 I'll go fix
01:08:05.120 the new thing
01:08:05.780 that I made
01:08:06.660 worse, but I'm
01:08:07.860 not going to
01:08:08.180 go backwards.
01:08:10.420 Is that a
01:08:11.480 good way to
01:08:11.980 be?
01:08:12.200 I don't
01:08:12.400 know.
01:08:13.180 I really
01:08:13.540 don't know.
01:08:15.120 You took a
01:08:15.920 massive L
01:08:16.660 for what?
01:08:25.980 Sounds like
01:08:29.360 an excuse.
01:08:32.260 I wonder if we'll
01:08:33.260 ever find the
01:08:33.960 real story about
01:08:34.760 the hammer and
01:08:35.480 Pelosi.
01:08:35.840 I think we do
01:08:38.060 know the real
01:08:38.580 story about that.
01:08:40.340 Pelosi.
01:08:40.660 The part that
01:08:42.300 everybody's confused
01:08:43.240 about is not
01:08:44.080 confusing at all
01:08:45.040 because they say
01:08:46.680 that Pelosi
01:08:47.540 answered the
01:08:48.780 door and
01:08:50.860 the police
01:08:51.820 didn't see any
01:08:52.660 immediate problems
01:08:53.620 and that
01:08:55.320 Pelosi let
01:08:57.760 them in and
01:08:59.260 it was only
01:08:59.760 then that the
01:09:00.540 bad guy grabbed
01:09:01.220 the hammer and
01:09:02.400 hit Pelosi.
01:09:04.100 But isn't it
01:09:06.140 obvious exactly
01:09:07.380 what happened?
01:09:07.940 Pelosi was
01:09:10.280 engaging the
01:09:11.000 crazy guy in
01:09:11.680 conversation to
01:09:13.240 stall and to
01:09:15.160 keep it as
01:09:16.160 nonviolent as
01:09:17.220 possible.
01:09:18.000 He had the
01:09:18.500 hammer in his
01:09:19.140 hand just in
01:09:19.940 case, but he
01:09:21.220 was clearly
01:09:21.740 talking to the
01:09:22.500 crazy guy like a
01:09:23.420 friend and he
01:09:24.940 wanted to
01:09:25.360 maintain that
01:09:26.220 feel to keep
01:09:28.500 the violence
01:09:29.100 low.
01:09:29.680 So when the
01:09:30.300 police entered,
01:09:31.500 he said, you
01:09:32.060 know, my
01:09:32.340 friend here,
01:09:34.140 you know, here's
01:09:34.740 my friend because
01:09:35.440 they've been
01:09:35.760 talking for a
01:09:36.380 while now, so
01:09:37.840 he wanted to
01:09:38.880 present him as
01:09:39.460 a friend to
01:09:40.100 keep the
01:09:40.440 violence down.
01:09:41.580 Here's my
01:09:41.960 friend.
01:09:43.240 And then when
01:09:44.140 the crazy guy
01:09:45.520 realized that he
01:09:46.540 was going to be
01:09:47.020 in trouble and
01:09:48.360 that this was an
01:09:49.080 arrest, not just
01:09:49.840 a conversation, he
01:09:51.300 went nuts on
01:09:51.980 Pelosi for
01:09:52.620 calling the
01:09:53.320 police.
01:09:54.440 How is that
01:09:54.880 not obvious?
01:09:57.520 Now, I'm not
01:09:58.240 saying it's the
01:09:58.840 true story because
01:10:00.360 anything could
01:10:01.160 sound right and
01:10:02.000 not be true, but
01:10:03.600 it's the most
01:10:04.360 obvious explanation.
01:10:05.600 why would you
01:10:06.620 reject the
01:10:07.400 obvious explanation?
01:10:11.060 Yeah, that's
01:10:11.980 the obvious
01:10:12.340 explanation.
01:10:13.160 If there's more
01:10:13.920 to it, well,
01:10:15.520 that's the world
01:10:16.620 we live in.
01:10:17.300 We wouldn't be
01:10:17.780 that surprised.
01:10:22.580 Why do I have
01:10:23.360 so many clankers
01:10:24.220 here?
01:10:24.720 Is it because
01:10:25.140 you're all mad
01:10:25.740 that I blocked
01:10:27.300 Stix and Hammer?
01:10:29.860 So the
01:10:30.560 clankers are
01:10:31.680 fans of
01:10:33.320 Stix and Hammer
01:10:33.960 who I blocked
01:10:34.980 the other day
01:10:35.460 for being a
01:10:36.020 dick.
01:10:37.540 And I think
01:10:38.080 that can we
01:10:41.140 all agree that
01:10:41.720 it doesn't
01:10:42.120 matter?
01:10:43.460 Does anybody
01:10:43.940 care who I
01:10:44.600 block on
01:10:45.040 Twitter?
01:10:46.600 And for what
01:10:47.340 reason?
01:10:48.100 Because they're
01:10:48.460 personal reasons.
01:10:50.320 I'm not trying to
01:10:51.500 say that you
01:10:52.100 should block
01:10:52.560 him.
01:10:54.060 It was just a
01:10:54.620 personal decision.
01:10:56.260 It was a very
01:10:56.960 personal decision.
01:10:57.820 It has nothing to
01:10:58.380 do with politics,
01:10:59.500 nothing to do with
01:11:00.480 his opinion.
01:11:02.120 It was just
01:11:02.540 personal.
01:11:02.820 All right.
01:11:07.560 That, ladies
01:11:08.220 and gentlemen,
01:11:08.980 brings us to
01:11:09.580 the conclusion
01:11:10.160 of the best
01:11:10.820 live stream
01:11:11.440 you've ever
01:11:12.000 seen in your
01:11:12.480 life.
01:11:15.280 I got less
01:11:16.040 pushback than
01:11:16.660 I was expecting.
01:11:17.580 I thought I'd
01:11:17.980 get a lot more
01:11:18.400 pushback on
01:11:18.980 this one.
01:11:25.260 All right.
01:11:26.960 Narcissists.
01:11:28.720 Absolutely.
01:11:29.080 Oh, you just
01:11:31.760 reminded me.
01:11:34.620 So I responded,
01:11:35.880 Dr. Jordan
01:11:36.920 Peterson responded
01:11:37.760 to one of my
01:11:38.580 tweets, and he
01:11:40.360 was talking about
01:11:41.440 anonymity on
01:11:42.740 Twitter.
01:11:43.960 And he asked
01:11:45.260 some interesting
01:11:45.960 questions about
01:11:46.700 the anonymous
01:11:47.260 people, whether
01:11:48.820 they're good or
01:11:49.440 bad in general.
01:11:51.100 But Peterson
01:11:52.580 noted in his
01:11:53.880 response to me
01:11:54.620 that there's
01:11:56.880 research that
01:11:58.100 shows that these
01:11:58.960 anonymous social
01:12:00.260 media users are
01:12:02.320 high in the
01:12:02.980 dark triad
01:12:03.960 narcissist
01:12:05.040 personality traits.
01:12:07.140 So you've
01:12:07.880 really created
01:12:08.680 an attractor for
01:12:11.200 the worst people
01:12:11.960 in society, and
01:12:13.680 it attracted them
01:12:14.500 just like it
01:12:15.300 should have, and
01:12:16.340 then they're
01:12:16.620 acting exactly like
01:12:17.680 you'd expect the
01:12:18.460 worst people to
01:12:19.020 act.
01:12:20.200 Now, I
01:12:20.880 responded to him.
01:12:21.740 I don't know if he
01:12:22.540 responded to my
01:12:23.220 response.
01:12:23.700 I didn't see it,
01:12:24.560 anyone.
01:12:25.400 But I responded to
01:12:26.460 him because I
01:12:26.880 thought it was
01:12:27.240 funny that
01:12:28.800 Jordan Peterson
01:12:29.600 would be calling
01:12:30.340 anybody a
01:12:30.920 narcissist.
01:12:32.300 But I don't
01:12:33.240 put him in that
01:12:33.960 category without
01:12:34.700 myself.
01:12:36.220 So in my
01:12:36.700 response, I
01:12:37.800 noted that the
01:12:38.620 two of us were
01:12:39.320 both peacocks.
01:12:42.380 So it's hard to
01:12:43.440 say that the
01:12:44.080 anonymous people
01:12:45.040 are narcissists
01:12:46.220 when the people
01:12:47.280 in the conversation
01:12:48.120 are Dr. Jordan
01:12:49.120 Peterson and
01:12:49.820 me.
01:12:51.220 Do you think
01:12:51.900 Dr. Jordan
01:12:52.720 Peterson and
01:12:53.680 me, do you
01:12:55.320 think the two
01:12:55.800 of us have
01:12:57.160 the right to
01:12:58.200 call somebody
01:12:58.840 else a
01:12:59.300 narcissist?
01:13:00.700 Of all the
01:13:01.520 two people in
01:13:02.120 the world, there
01:13:03.640 couldn't be two
01:13:04.880 more narcissistic
01:13:05.800 people than us.
01:13:07.360 We're the two
01:13:08.280 peacockiest peacocks
01:13:11.160 you've ever seen.
01:13:12.660 I mean, we're
01:13:13.140 all about public
01:13:14.100 attention for
01:13:16.300 presumably doing
01:13:17.620 good work.
01:13:18.680 At least that's
01:13:19.380 the attempt.
01:13:20.480 Now, I'm
01:13:22.680 quick to point
01:13:23.320 out, and I'm
01:13:24.460 sure Dr.
01:13:25.560 Peterson would
01:13:26.140 point out the
01:13:26.660 same, that
01:13:27.500 they're basically
01:13:28.720 two major
01:13:30.100 kinds of
01:13:30.660 narcissists, and
01:13:32.340 they're very
01:13:32.760 different.
01:13:34.320 One kind likes
01:13:35.820 to show off, but
01:13:38.040 the best way to
01:13:38.660 show off is to
01:13:39.300 actually do
01:13:39.780 something good.
01:13:41.400 Like, that's
01:13:41.900 how I play it.
01:13:42.780 Like, I don't
01:13:43.140 really, it
01:13:44.320 wouldn't feed me
01:13:45.100 to get credit
01:13:45.800 for something I
01:13:46.440 didn't do, because
01:13:47.660 actually that
01:13:48.160 happens fairly
01:13:48.920 often.
01:13:49.820 Fairly often
01:13:50.560 people will
01:13:51.040 say, oh, you
01:13:51.640 made this
01:13:52.400 prediction correctly.
01:13:53.260 And I'll
01:13:54.140 look at it
01:13:54.500 and go, no, I
01:13:55.760 didn't.
01:13:56.900 I never made
01:13:57.800 that prediction,
01:13:58.500 but thank you
01:13:59.500 for giving me
01:14:00.100 credit.
01:14:00.920 But it doesn't
01:14:01.540 do anything for
01:14:02.140 me.
01:14:03.420 Getting credit
01:14:04.260 for something I
01:14:04.940 didn't do happens
01:14:06.480 to me all the
01:14:07.060 time.
01:14:07.660 It's like a very
01:14:08.420 irregular occurrence.
01:14:09.760 But when it's
01:14:10.240 something I didn't
01:14:10.900 do, it gives me
01:14:11.740 nothing.
01:14:12.840 Like, there's no
01:14:13.600 dopamine hit, just
01:14:15.080 nothing.
01:14:16.040 It's like, oh,
01:14:16.780 that's weird.
01:14:17.540 But if I get
01:14:19.280 credit for
01:14:19.760 something I
01:14:20.260 actually did, that
01:14:22.140 helped a real
01:14:22.840 person, it feels
01:14:24.420 really good.
01:14:25.980 Yeah, I'm the
01:14:27.260 most narcissistic,
01:14:29.200 grandiose narcissist
01:14:30.120 you could ever
01:14:30.740 be.
01:14:31.340 But I think, you
01:14:32.700 know, my non-medically
01:14:34.540 trained brain says
01:14:36.800 that Peterson is
01:14:38.800 exactly like me, in
01:14:40.360 this one regard.
01:14:41.520 You know, unlike
01:14:42.560 the poor man's
01:14:43.640 version.
01:14:44.540 But in this one
01:14:45.340 regard, he
01:14:46.160 clearly, according
01:14:48.440 to my personal
01:14:50.100 impression, I
01:14:51.820 can't read his
01:14:52.380 mind, but it
01:14:53.600 appears that he
01:14:54.640 likes attention
01:14:56.180 for doing things
01:14:57.280 that are useful
01:14:57.840 and good for
01:14:58.380 people.
01:14:59.420 And why
01:14:59.860 wouldn't he?
01:15:01.240 Wouldn't you?
01:15:02.680 He just, he can
01:15:03.600 deliver, so he's
01:15:04.940 in that position
01:15:05.520 because he has the
01:15:06.080 ability to do it.
01:15:07.340 But if you had
01:15:08.000 the ability to do
01:15:08.820 it, wouldn't
01:15:10.160 you?
01:15:11.740 Wouldn't you?
01:15:13.420 If you could do
01:15:14.480 as much good as
01:15:15.540 he does,
01:15:16.800 wouldn't you do
01:15:17.440 it?
01:15:18.240 And wouldn't you
01:15:18.740 do it as publicly
01:15:19.680 as possible?
01:15:20.480 And wouldn't you
01:15:21.580 enjoy it if
01:15:22.220 somebody said,
01:15:22.820 hey, you did
01:15:23.280 something good
01:15:23.780 for me?
01:15:24.160 Of course you
01:15:24.580 would.
01:15:25.620 And my
01:15:26.320 understanding is
01:15:27.020 that makes us
01:15:27.520 both narcissists.
01:15:29.680 But that's a
01:15:31.240 different kind than
01:15:32.140 the dark triad
01:15:33.420 narcissist.
01:15:34.400 So the other
01:15:35.040 kind is almost
01:15:37.140 all bad.
01:15:38.500 No, it's all
01:15:39.000 bad.
01:15:39.540 Not almost.
01:15:40.300 It's just all
01:15:40.740 bad.
01:15:41.040 So you've
01:15:43.580 got to keep
01:15:43.900 your narcissist
01:15:44.460 straight.
01:15:45.960 And so I think
01:15:46.440 my comment was a
01:15:47.240 little unfair
01:15:47.740 because I was
01:15:48.780 conflating the two
01:15:49.800 kinds of narcissists.
01:15:51.500 But it still
01:15:52.080 struck me as
01:15:52.680 funny.
01:15:56.180 Who is more
01:15:56.700 powerful,
01:15:57.460 Carrie Lake or
01:15:58.260 Mike Sertovich?
01:16:00.120 Is that a fair
01:16:00.920 question?
01:16:01.900 Who is more
01:16:02.400 powerful?
01:16:04.480 What you mean is
01:16:05.320 who's more
01:16:05.700 persuasive, right?
01:16:06.600 who has better
01:16:08.000 persuasion
01:16:08.560 abilities?
01:16:10.540 I think they're
01:16:11.320 both tens.
01:16:12.920 I don't know.
01:16:14.020 They're probably
01:16:14.700 both tens.
01:16:16.720 Ten out of
01:16:17.460 ten.
01:16:19.720 All right.
01:16:26.160 Were you
01:16:27.000 bullied as a
01:16:27.720 child?
01:16:29.040 Me?
01:16:30.620 Who wasn't
01:16:31.780 bullied as a
01:16:32.380 child?
01:16:33.820 Is there
01:16:34.400 anybody who
01:16:34.860 wasn't bullied
01:16:35.620 as a child?
01:16:36.600 Is that even
01:16:37.420 a thing?
01:16:39.500 You?
01:16:40.420 Oh, yeah.
01:16:41.040 Somebody who's
01:16:41.480 really big.
01:16:42.240 If you're very
01:16:43.240 large and you're
01:16:44.000 male, maybe you
01:16:45.620 weren't bullied.
01:16:46.400 That's true.
01:16:47.680 But even then,
01:16:48.440 the older kids
01:16:49.080 would bully you.
01:16:52.360 You were not?
01:16:54.780 I had a few
01:16:55.620 bullies, but
01:16:56.220 things didn't
01:16:56.820 work out for
01:16:57.400 them.
01:17:01.300 Yeah.
01:17:02.160 So my
01:17:02.620 bully narrative
01:17:03.940 is that I had
01:17:05.360 a few, but
01:17:05.960 I solved them
01:17:08.100 both with
01:17:08.500 violence.
01:17:10.860 Violence
01:17:11.260 solves a lot
01:17:11.880 of problems.
01:17:14.540 Violence
01:17:14.940 is very
01:17:15.800 successful.
01:17:16.880 Yeah.
01:17:17.240 In the old
01:17:17.960 days, remember
01:17:18.520 the old way
01:17:20.540 that you were
01:17:21.780 taught to deal
01:17:22.340 with bullies
01:17:22.860 is to attack
01:17:24.240 them.
01:17:25.420 So I just
01:17:26.100 physically
01:17:26.540 attacked them
01:17:27.180 and hurt
01:17:28.600 them.
01:17:29.340 And then they
01:17:29.920 never bothered
01:17:30.420 me again.
01:17:30.800 But the
01:17:32.580 key to
01:17:33.180 attacking
01:17:33.560 a bully
01:17:33.900 is you
01:17:34.220 got to
01:17:34.400 make sure
01:17:34.720 that the
01:17:35.060 next time
01:17:35.480 they know
01:17:35.760 you're going
01:17:36.040 to kill
01:17:36.300 them.
01:17:37.700 You can't
01:17:38.900 just hurt
01:17:39.340 them, because
01:17:40.340 then they
01:17:40.620 might just
01:17:40.960 want to hurt
01:17:41.340 you back.
01:17:42.660 So you
01:17:43.100 have to hurt
01:17:43.620 them and
01:17:44.640 tell them
01:17:45.000 that's just
01:17:45.780 the appetizer.
01:17:47.380 Well, there's
01:17:47.780 the appetizer.
01:17:48.820 If you want
01:17:49.240 the full meal,
01:17:49.960 I'll come
01:17:50.240 back.
01:17:51.400 So if you
01:17:51.980 don't do
01:17:52.280 that part,
01:17:52.860 it doesn't
01:17:53.200 work.
01:17:53.580 So you
01:17:53.760 got to really
01:17:54.400 sell that
01:17:54.880 part hard.
01:17:55.340 So once
01:17:56.580 you have
01:17:56.860 them down
01:17:57.300 and you're
01:17:57.620 shoving grass
01:17:58.260 in their
01:17:58.540 mouth, that's
01:18:00.540 when you tell
01:18:00.960 them you'll
01:18:01.360 come back.
01:18:03.480 As I was
01:18:04.080 making one of
01:18:04.580 my bullies
01:18:05.060 eat grass in
01:18:05.760 front of the
01:18:06.140 rest of the
01:18:06.480 class, as I
01:18:07.960 was sitting on
01:18:08.440 his chest
01:18:08.860 shoving it
01:18:09.340 down his
01:18:09.680 throat, I
01:18:11.000 reminded him
01:18:13.500 that I would
01:18:13.840 come back.
01:18:17.820 No, Elon
01:18:18.420 mentions.
01:18:19.040 I did mention
01:18:19.600 him.
01:18:20.180 I mentioned
01:18:20.780 him in the
01:18:21.240 reference to
01:18:21.940 Yoel.
01:18:25.340 All right.
01:18:26.800 Ladies and
01:18:27.460 gentlemen.
01:18:29.900 Yeah, Fauci
01:18:30.540 just bores
01:18:31.120 me.
01:18:32.420 There's
01:18:32.860 nothing to
01:18:33.260 say about
01:18:33.620 Fauci except
01:18:34.460 he said
01:18:35.600 X.
01:18:36.820 We think
01:18:37.400 he lied.
01:18:38.540 You know,
01:18:38.800 just over
01:18:39.480 and over
01:18:39.800 again.
01:18:41.600 That's the
01:18:42.220 whole story
01:18:42.700 of Fauci.
01:18:43.540 He said
01:18:44.160 something.
01:18:45.040 We think
01:18:45.640 he knew
01:18:46.040 it was a
01:18:46.500 lie.
01:18:47.720 It's just
01:18:48.280 that over
01:18:48.800 and over
01:18:49.120 again.
01:18:49.520 It's just
01:18:49.980 one story.
01:18:51.500 Just change
01:18:52.200 the variables
01:18:52.740 and it's
01:18:53.320 the same
01:18:53.800 story over
01:18:54.400 and over
01:18:54.740 again.
01:18:55.340 All right.
01:19:03.040 Everyone
01:19:03.440 clapped,
01:19:04.260 I bet,
01:19:04.640 when you
01:19:05.000 beat your
01:19:05.460 bullies.
01:19:06.180 No, I
01:19:06.560 don't think
01:19:06.820 they really
01:19:07.160 cared.
01:19:08.240 They were
01:19:08.780 doing their
01:19:09.200 own thing.
01:19:10.020 It just
01:19:10.340 happened to
01:19:10.640 be a busy
01:19:11.100 place.
01:19:12.380 It wasn't
01:19:12.900 that they
01:19:13.260 all crowded
01:19:13.940 around.
01:19:14.560 It just
01:19:14.860 wasn't in
01:19:15.440 front of
01:19:15.680 enough people
01:19:16.200 that there
01:19:16.660 were witnesses.
01:19:17.160 the real
01:19:26.280 story about
01:19:26.900 Fauci is
01:19:28.120 his terrifying
01:19:28.920 virility.
01:19:35.620 His
01:19:36.140 terrifying
01:19:36.840 virility.
01:19:41.760 That's pretty
01:19:42.460 good.
01:19:42.660 All right.
01:19:44.240 Ladies and
01:19:44.680 gentlemen,
01:19:45.100 that's all
01:19:45.420 for YouTube.
01:19:46.460 I'm going
01:19:46.680 to talk to
01:19:47.600 the local
01:19:48.360 subscribers
01:19:49.060 privately
01:19:49.580 here.
01:19:50.560 But thanks
01:19:51.000 for joining.
01:19:52.780 Fauci is
01:19:53.500 sexual.
01:19:54.140 Thank you.
01:19:54.200 Thank you.
01:19:54.260 Thank you.
