Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1954 Scott Adams： More Twitter Revelations, So Juicy! Russian Arms Dealer Has Some Surprises

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 0.99

00:02:14.920 a hundred fucking years ago, 0.97

00:02:19.040 maybe every now and then you should take a look at it, 0.92

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, 0.99

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, 0.83

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? 1.00

00:03:18.900 Are any of you dumb enough to play tennis? 0.99

00:03:21.500 I was dumb enough to play tennis for, I don't know, 1.00

00:03:24.120 50 years until I quit. 0.88

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. 0.99

00:03:52.920 Every hundred fucking years, 0.97

00:03:55.040 you should take a look at your sport 0.99

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 0.56

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 1.00

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 0.88

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 0.79

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 0.97

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? 1.00

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 0.85

00:19:20.940 blaming the

00:19:21.900 U.S., and

00:19:23.580 they were both 0.99

00:19:24.320 fucking in on 1.00

00:19:25.200 it. 0.99

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, 0.99

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 1.00

00:21:22.300 fucking book for 1.00

00:21:24.300 us to know what 1.00

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 1.00

00:21:34.260 whore, you're 1.00

00:21:36.720 not credible. 1.00

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 1.00

00:21:44.320 fucking guy said 1.00

00:21:45.020 it. 1.00

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. 0.57

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 0.95

00:22:59.700 analogy?

00:23:01.380 It's completely

00:23:02.400 crippled. 0.99

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 0.88

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. 0.57

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. 0.79

00:23:20.380 You're so

00:23:20.880 Hitlerized. 0.79

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. 0.57

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 0.96

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 0.98

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, 0.80

00:28:08.880 which is for gay 0.97

00:28:09.880 people to do 0.99

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 1.00

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. 0.90

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 0.95

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. 0.53

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 0.96

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 1.00

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. 0.57

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. 0.57

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 0.77

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 0.99

00:42:12.600 Hitler poisoned. 0.74

00:42:14.200 So anybody who

00:42:15.860 brings up Hitler in 0.99

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 1.00

00:42:22.900 just have Hitler 0.92

00:42:23.600 poisoning, and you 0.95

00:42:24.780 should ignore

00:42:25.240 everything they say.

00:42:26.920 It's just Hitler 0.97

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 0.94

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. 0.79

00:43:39.080 So, if you kill 0.98

00:43:40.100 somebody in self-defense, 0.99

00:43:41.320 let's say you blow 1.00

00:43:41.900 their head off, 1.00

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 0.96

00:43:47.480 murdered them with 0.81

00:43:48.340 premeditation. 0.88

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 1.00

00:43:53.720 that you killed 1.00

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, 0.98

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 0.99

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 0.79

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 0.96

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 0.89

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 0.99

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 0.84

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 1.00

00:59:52.920 a dick. 0.99

00:59:54.380 But the work 1.00

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 0.99

01:00:04.000 sort of a dick. 0.99

01:00:05.400 But I'm pretty 0.99

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 1.00

01:04:42.200 dick, how 1.00

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, 1.00

01:07:16.040 like a

01:07:16.440 partner.

01:07:16.780 because women 0.99

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 0.99

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 0.73

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 0.84

01:09:11.680 conversation to 0.78

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 0.99

01:09:22.500 crazy guy like a 0.92

01:09:23.420 friend and he 0.63

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 0.65

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 1.00

01:10:36.020 dick. 0.99

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 0.51

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 0.97

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. 0.99

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 0.99

01:13:04.880 more narcissistic 0.85

01:13:05.800 people than us.

01:13:07.360 We're the two

01:13:08.280 peacockiest peacocks 0.86

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, 0.98

01:14:29.200 grandiose narcissist 1.00

01:14:30.120 you could ever 0.95

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 0.71

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 0.96

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. 0.97

01:17:25.420 So I just

01:17:26.100 physically 0.97

01:17:26.540 attacked them

01:17:27.180 and hurt 0.75

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 0.98

01:17:36.040 to kill 1.00

01:17:36.300 them. 1.00

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 0.97

01:17:43.620 them and 0.96

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 1.00

01:18:09.680 throat, I 0.70

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 0.98

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 0.98

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.
