Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2059 Scott Adams： Trump Rally, DeSantis LKS, AOC Supports TikTok, Ye & Jonah Hill, More Fun

00:00:00.000 Do-do-do-do-do-do.

00:00:03.140 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of civilization.

00:00:07.800 This is the place to be.

00:00:09.500 You know, a lot of people have decided to be somewhere else,

00:00:13.280 not watching this live.

00:00:15.560 Wow. Do we feel sorry for them?

00:00:18.120 We should, yes. Feel terrible for them.

00:00:21.460 Let me get that little wire out of your way. 1.00

00:00:23.220 There you go. There you go.

00:00:25.960 Now, if you'd like to take your experience up to

00:00:29.260 levels that only a Chinese weather balloon has ever seen,

00:00:33.280 all you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tanker,

00:00:36.420 a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask,

00:00:39.280 a vessel of any kind.

00:00:40.820 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

00:00:43.260 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure.

00:00:46.620 It's the dopamine at the end of the day that makes everything better.

00:00:50.580 It's called the simultaneous sip.

00:00:53.300 It happens now.

00:00:54.700 Seriously, you just finished your coffee?

00:01:02.720 There's somebody on YouTube?

00:01:04.500 I mean, we're just going to mock you over on the locals' platform.

00:01:08.640 Didn't time the coffee right over on YouTube?

00:01:11.300 Well, don't do that again.

00:01:15.480 You've been warned.

00:01:20.760 Well, the best and weirdest story of the day,

00:01:24.440 I guess this happened yesterday or the day before.

00:01:28.180 Somehow I missed this story until just recently.

00:01:32.080 So, yay has come out of hiding with a post on Instagram.

00:01:38.500 I'm not making this up.

00:01:39.740 Everything I say now about this story is actually true.

00:01:45.080 I'm actually...

00:01:45.760 This is real.

00:01:48.100 Yay posted on Instagram,

00:01:50.180 watching Jonah Hill in 21 Jump Street

00:01:52.820 made me like Jewish people again.

00:01:59.080 And then he goes on,

00:02:00.680 no one should take anger against one or two individuals

00:02:03.400 and transform that into hatred toward millions of innocent people.

00:02:06.960 And then he says,

00:02:09.540 no Christian can be labeled anti-Semite

00:02:11.620 knowing Jesus is Jew. 0.88

00:02:13.480 Thank you, Jonah Hill.

00:02:14.800 I love you.

00:02:20.160 This is the craziest, best thing he's done yet.

00:02:29.480 Because...

00:02:30.960 Now, just think about how you feel about it.

00:02:33.640 Just release yourself from, you know, the logic of it.

00:02:39.840 Don't think of the story, the details.

00:02:42.780 Just tell me how you feel about it.

00:02:46.020 It totally works.

00:02:49.480 This is the funny thing.

00:02:51.340 The funny thing is that we laugh at it

00:02:53.480 because it's just so weird.

00:02:55.960 And yet it totally works.

00:02:58.060 In my opinion, it would be hard to be mad at him

00:03:00.400 after he said that.

00:03:01.300 Because, first of all,

00:03:04.140 he's saying no one should take anger,

00:03:06.260 so he's basically disavowing himself.

00:03:11.260 He's disavowing himself.

00:03:13.220 And he's giving this ridiculous reason

00:03:15.840 why he's come to this conclusion.

00:03:18.120 And the reason that he's giving is so funny

00:03:20.400 that you sort of believe it,

00:03:23.640 even though it couldn't possibly be true

00:03:26.120 that it's the only thing that changed his mind.

00:03:28.680 But the fact that he went at it like this

00:03:31.240 is kind of perfect.

00:03:35.160 Now, I can't speak for the Jewish community

00:03:37.820 and anybody who supports them

00:03:39.520 for how they might feel about this,

00:03:42.220 but what do you really want from people?

00:03:46.400 What do you want from people?

00:03:48.320 If somebody had offended me

00:03:49.980 or some group I'm with

00:03:51.120 and then later came at me with this,

00:03:54.320 that Jonah Hill, you know,

00:03:55.520 cured him of hating my group,

00:03:56.880 and then he says as clearly as possible,

00:04:00.760 no one should take anger

00:04:01.860 about a few people

00:04:03.560 and generalize it to millions,

00:04:05.140 that's all you wanted to hear, right?

00:04:07.460 That was literally exactly

00:04:09.000 what you wanted him to say.

00:04:10.600 No, you should not generalize it to people

00:04:12.740 because you mattered a few.

00:04:15.920 I feel like he nailed it.

00:04:18.380 As silly as this is,

00:04:19.680 I think he actually nailed it.

00:04:22.040 We'll see.

00:04:23.100 We'll see.

00:04:23.640 I suppose it depends

00:04:25.100 what he does after this,

00:04:26.240 but that could not be

00:04:27.920 a more quirky, perfect, artistic

00:04:30.820 way to approach it.

00:04:34.740 I just love that.

00:04:36.260 All right.

00:04:38.180 What do you think is the biggest source

00:04:39.640 of racism in the country?

00:04:41.740 Democrats, climate change,

00:04:43.280 teachers' unions, Republicans?

00:04:46.620 It's Democrats, right?

00:04:47.940 Because all the other categories

00:04:50.740 are Democrats, right?

00:04:53.580 The climate change pushers

00:04:55.460 who want to get rid of your cheap energy

00:04:57.880 that minorities would love to use,

00:05:01.980 teachers' unions, mostly Democrats.

00:05:04.200 It's basically Democrats.

00:05:06.060 So Democrats,

00:05:07.500 in their typical narcissistic way,

00:05:11.560 have created an entire philosophy

00:05:14.160 around projection.

00:05:17.340 Pretty much.

00:05:18.340 It's just projection.

00:05:19.660 So there are gigantic racists

00:05:21.560 who only see the world

00:05:23.440 through racial terms,

00:05:24.520 and they're trying to project that

00:05:25.720 on everybody else

00:05:26.580 and make everybody else

00:05:27.940 the bad guy.

00:05:28.820 Now, I'm not saying

00:05:29.440 there aren't any conservative racists.

00:05:33.000 Of course there are.

00:05:34.860 But the fact that the Democrats

00:05:36.840 have made it their main theme

00:05:38.360 certainly makes race

00:05:41.080 the big issue.

00:05:43.340 Now, I want to push back

00:05:44.460 on something that

00:05:45.260 a lot of my audience

00:05:48.180 says to me

00:05:49.300 in various ways.

00:05:51.540 How many of you think

00:05:52.560 that the election of Obama

00:05:54.260 made race relations worse?

00:05:59.120 Let me see your actions.

00:06:01.780 Because if you trace

00:06:02.900 the race relations line,

00:06:05.580 I think Gallup tracks it.

00:06:07.280 It looks like the election

00:06:08.340 of Obama,

00:06:08.920 but do you blame Obama

00:06:12.140 for that?

00:06:12.640 Let's say the timing

00:06:13.460 does seem to be

00:06:15.160 around the Obama election.

00:06:17.880 But do you blame Obama

00:06:18.960 for that?

00:06:21.320 I'm seeing mostly yes.

00:06:23.160 Yes, yes, yes.

00:06:24.420 All right.

00:06:26.360 I'm going to do something

00:06:28.300 you don't like at all.

00:06:30.480 I think that was entirely

00:06:31.960 the right-leaning media.

00:06:33.660 That wasn't Obama.

00:06:34.480 I think if the right-leaning

00:06:37.560 media had not made

00:06:38.580 a racist

00:06:39.480 kind of framing of him

00:06:41.640 from the first moment,

00:06:42.800 you wouldn't have noticed.

00:06:47.220 That's right.

00:06:48.200 To me, it looks like

00:06:49.220 the media assigned

00:06:50.280 people the opinion

00:06:53.340 that Obama

00:06:55.500 was going to be bad

00:06:57.360 for white people,

00:06:58.480 and then white people

00:07:00.280 adopted that view.

00:07:01.220 And so I was watching

00:07:04.580 it at the time,

00:07:05.620 and to me,

00:07:06.300 it looked like

00:07:06.880 a massive PSYOP

00:07:08.240 against Obama.

00:07:11.700 That, you know,

00:07:12.540 the whole...

00:07:15.080 I mean,

00:07:15.500 I actually talked

00:07:16.340 to somebody

00:07:16.820 during Obama's presidency.

00:07:18.760 In the middle

00:07:19.220 of his presidency,

00:07:20.560 there was a Republican

00:07:22.480 who told me

00:07:23.120 that it's a known fact

00:07:24.720 that Obama's a Muslim.

00:07:27.020 And I said,

00:07:28.240 what?

00:07:28.580 And he said,

00:07:30.580 yeah, I mean,

00:07:31.140 everybody knows he's...

00:07:32.600 And I said,

00:07:33.020 you mean like

00:07:33.420 an actual practicing Muslim,

00:07:35.420 as in if you asked him,

00:07:36.600 he would say,

00:07:37.080 yes, I'm a Muslim?

00:07:38.260 He said, yes,

00:07:39.740 everybody knows

00:07:40.460 he's a practicing Muslim.

00:07:43.140 Now, where do you get that?

00:07:45.300 This is somebody

00:07:45.940 who followed,

00:07:46.760 you know,

00:07:47.240 right-leaning news

00:07:48.160 and came to the conclusion

00:07:49.640 that Obama was a Muslim.

00:07:52.600 Somebody says

00:07:53.280 he is a Muslim.

00:07:54.620 There you go.

00:07:55.300 Do you think

00:07:56.780 that it's only the left

00:07:58.300 that gets brainwashed

00:08:00.040 by the news?

00:08:01.460 It's not.

00:08:02.120 It's not just the left.

00:08:04.240 Yeah.

00:08:04.640 To me,

00:08:05.040 I think that Obama

00:08:05.840 was a marker

00:08:07.680 for, you know,

00:08:09.780 he certainly marks

00:08:10.740 the time that race relations

00:08:12.380 started to plummet,

00:08:14.420 but I think that was

00:08:15.280 almost entirely

00:08:15.880 because of the way

00:08:16.560 the news handled it.

00:08:17.980 That's my opinion.

00:08:19.440 Because, you know,

00:08:20.380 I remember going

00:08:21.160 through that period

00:08:21.920 and thinking,

00:08:24.260 oh, my God,

00:08:24.940 it's just every day

00:08:26.220 something that's vaguely

00:08:28.040 racially related

00:08:29.200 or race scare

00:08:30.820 or Obama's going

00:08:32.100 to take away

00:08:32.700 whatever white people like.

00:08:35.860 Yeah.

00:08:36.880 To me,

00:08:38.020 when I tell you

00:08:40.160 that the media

00:08:40.860 assigns our opinions,

00:08:42.620 you don't think

00:08:43.220 I only mean liberals, right?

00:08:46.020 Everybody's opinion

00:08:46.780 is assigned.

00:08:48.200 All of us.

00:08:49.780 You know,

00:08:50.200 I'm even saying it

00:08:51.280 and I know that

00:08:51.900 my opinions are probably

00:08:53.180 coming from the media.

00:08:54.720 I mean,

00:08:55.020 I try as hard as I can

00:08:56.200 to, you know,

00:08:57.380 find some space

00:08:58.200 between the media narratives

00:08:59.360 and what I think.

00:09:00.640 But have you noticed

00:09:01.740 how often I end up

00:09:02.760 snapping into the narrative?

00:09:05.260 Like everybody else.

00:09:06.840 It's almost irresistible

00:09:08.980 to get pulled into,

00:09:10.980 you know,

00:09:11.600 one of the binaries.

00:09:13.320 So I'm sure

00:09:13.980 it's happening to me.

00:09:14.920 I'd be surprised

00:09:15.580 if it's not happening

00:09:16.300 to all of you.

00:09:16.920 But keep that in mind

00:09:19.740 that you may be

00:09:20.540 getting your opinions

00:09:21.280 more from the media

00:09:23.220 than you think

00:09:24.060 because that's how it works.

00:09:26.120 But let's talk about

00:09:27.080 the race absurdity.

00:09:29.660 So we've clearly

00:09:30.800 gotten to the point

00:09:31.540 of race relations absurdity

00:09:33.800 because the race grifters 0.83

00:09:36.240 have been running

00:09:37.400 the show for a while.

00:09:38.840 The race grifters 1.00

00:09:39.580 are anybody who makes money

00:09:40.820 complaining about race,

00:09:42.320 basically.

00:09:42.700 And here's the newest one.

00:09:46.040 CNN has an article

00:09:46.920 about digital blackface.

00:09:49.500 So there's a complaint

00:09:50.580 that white people 0.52

00:09:51.920 have been using memes

00:09:53.980 in which a black American

00:09:56.420 is saying something

00:09:57.920 that's witty

00:09:58.900 or funny or something.

00:10:01.000 And it fits the story.

00:10:03.260 So a bunch of white people 0.93

00:10:04.400 keep using these memes

00:10:05.440 of black people.

00:10:06.940 Now white people 0.74

00:10:07.700 also use memes

00:10:08.600 of white people.

00:10:09.800 I don't know

00:10:10.140 if you knew that.

00:10:10.780 But memes actually have

00:10:12.660 lots of different

00:10:13.400 representation.

00:10:16.180 But apparently

00:10:16.940 if you're a white person

00:10:17.920 and you use one

00:10:18.580 that has a black person in it,

00:10:20.580 and I'm not saying

00:10:21.240 these are insulting,

00:10:22.460 they just are memes.

00:10:24.160 Memes always make people

00:10:25.460 look silly,

00:10:26.120 but it's not about

00:10:26.920 your race.

00:10:30.320 And here,

00:10:31.080 let me explain

00:10:31.700 why this is digital blackface.

00:10:35.080 According to a CNN

00:10:36.160 opinion piece,

00:10:37.640 digital blackface

00:10:38.520 involves white people

00:10:39.660 play-acting at being black. 0.62

00:10:42.600 What?

00:10:43.880 If you send a meme around,

00:10:45.540 are you play-acting

00:10:46.360 at being black?

00:10:48.020 I was not aware

00:10:49.400 of that rule.

00:10:50.580 I thought that a meme

00:10:51.680 that featured

00:10:52.320 a black American

00:10:53.380 was like every other meme.

00:10:56.840 It was just a meme.

00:10:58.700 That's what I thought.

00:11:00.160 I didn't realize

00:11:01.040 that I was play-acting

00:11:02.100 at being black

00:11:03.300 when I did it.

00:11:04.000 This is from

00:11:07.420 some cultural critic.

00:11:09.380 And the cultural critic says,

00:11:11.480 the internet thrives

00:11:12.520 on white people

00:11:13.320 laughing at exaggerated

00:11:14.660 displays of blackness.

00:11:17.820 Don't we also laugh

00:11:19.520 at exaggerated displays

00:11:21.420 of Karens?

00:11:23.160 I've seen as many

00:11:24.420 Karen videos

00:11:25.400 as anything else.

00:11:29.320 It's more about

00:11:30.260 the people being

00:11:31.000 interesting,

00:11:31.940 not...

00:11:32.680 Anyway.

00:11:36.120 Reflecting a tendency

00:11:37.040 among some

00:11:37.840 to see, quote,

00:11:38.840 black people

00:11:39.620 as walking hyperbole.

00:11:43.020 Is that a problem?

00:11:45.140 You know,

00:11:45.420 I woke up this morning

00:11:46.380 and I thought,

00:11:46.920 you know,

00:11:47.620 I hope there's no

00:11:48.700 big problems today.

00:11:49.900 And then I find out

00:11:50.720 that white people 0.52

00:11:51.880 are using memes

00:11:52.700 and therefore

00:11:55.300 seeing black people

00:11:56.440 as walking hyperbole.

00:11:57.620 Have we run

00:11:59.840 out of problems?

00:12:00.540 Are we completely

00:12:02.680 out of problems?

00:12:04.840 That sending memes around

00:12:06.320 that are not

00:12:06.820 your own race

00:12:07.520 is mocking people

00:12:09.260 for being walking

00:12:11.000 hyperbole?

00:12:12.100 I mean,

00:12:12.400 you have to try

00:12:13.060 really hard

00:12:13.840 to make that racist. 0.91

00:12:15.280 You've got to try

00:12:15.900 really hard.

00:12:17.140 But I guess

00:12:17.800 they succeeded.

00:12:18.380 I saw a tweet

00:12:20.200 from Christopher Ruffo,

00:12:22.260 Ruffo.

00:12:23.900 It was a black mother

00:12:25.740 who was doing

00:12:27.020 a very forceful

00:12:28.800 denunciation

00:12:29.480 of ethnic studies

00:12:30.640 curriculum in Minnesota.

00:12:32.940 And her complaint

00:12:34.340 was that

00:12:35.120 it was teaching

00:12:37.120 black kids

00:12:37.920 that there are

00:12:39.140 obstacles,

00:12:40.780 you know,

00:12:40.940 racism obstacles.

00:12:41.800 So she was worried

00:12:43.560 that it gave them

00:12:44.300 the idea

00:12:44.680 that they can't

00:12:45.420 succeed

00:12:45.800 because it was

00:12:47.380 telling them

00:12:47.820 there are all

00:12:48.100 these obstacles.

00:12:49.340 And she would

00:12:49.860 rather have

00:12:50.500 her children

00:12:51.200 and other black

00:12:52.040 kids, I guess,

00:12:53.080 be told that

00:12:53.620 they can succeed,

00:12:55.220 which is pretty smart.

00:12:57.880 Then she went

00:12:58.740 on too far.

00:13:01.040 It started out great.

00:13:03.660 I was going to

00:13:04.480 tweet this thing.

00:13:05.280 I was like,

00:13:05.580 oh, finally,

00:13:07.080 somebody who can

00:13:07.780 actually see

00:13:08.500 what's good

00:13:09.000 for black America

00:13:09.980 is black,

00:13:11.880 so maybe somebody

00:13:12.900 will listen to her,

00:13:13.980 and is making

00:13:14.780 a real good point.

00:13:15.580 And I was like,

00:13:15.940 ah, yes,

00:13:16.780 that's it.

00:13:17.280 That's exactly

00:13:17.840 what I want to see.

00:13:19.260 And then she went

00:13:20.100 further and said,

00:13:21.500 quote,

00:13:22.200 I can see why

00:13:24.440 you white proponents 0.66

00:13:25.420 of this bill

00:13:26.000 might support it.

00:13:27.240 It's not your kids

00:13:28.160 being told

00:13:28.620 they can't succeed,

00:13:29.920 and you get to shed

00:13:30.820 some of your white guilt

00:13:31.960 in the process.

00:13:33.580 Okay, so it turns out

00:13:34.520 she's a huge racist, 1.00

00:13:36.360 but she's not wrong

00:13:37.840 about the message

00:13:40.960 it sends to black kids.

00:13:42.580 I think she's right

00:13:43.280 about that.

00:13:44.460 She just happens 0.69

00:13:45.080 to be a racist.

00:13:48.040 Do you believe

00:13:48.980 that white people 0.52

00:13:49.980 are why the ethnic studies

00:13:51.620 are being taught

00:13:52.240 in school?

00:13:53.600 Now, I do believe

00:13:54.880 that probably

00:13:55.880 in this particular school

00:13:57.740 there might be

00:13:58.220 more white people,

00:13:59.620 and therefore

00:14:00.180 they might be

00:14:00.780 the majority

00:14:01.400 that are voting

00:14:02.480 for it, right?

00:14:03.680 But let me ask you this.

00:14:04.660 If the black population 1.00

00:14:06.720 of this same area

00:14:08.300 in Minnesota,

00:14:09.240 if the black population

00:14:10.560 did not want

00:14:11.500 ethnic studies,

00:14:12.900 do you think that

00:14:13.760 the white people

00:14:14.560 would be pushing it?

00:14:15.800 No, no, you do want it.

00:14:17.160 No, we don't want it.

00:14:18.400 No, you really do.

00:14:20.220 No, no.

00:14:21.600 So even though

00:14:22.160 the white people

00:14:22.740 are the ones

00:14:23.160 doing all the

00:14:24.020 promoting and voting

00:14:25.400 and, you know,

00:14:26.480 they might have control

00:14:27.760 of the levers of power,

00:14:29.300 they wouldn't do it

00:14:30.900 unless there was

00:14:32.340 a demand for it.

00:14:33.220 So here she is

00:14:35.140 blaming the white people

00:14:36.160 for trying to do

00:14:37.660 something that

00:14:38.260 obviously they think

00:14:39.200 is for the benefit

00:14:40.480 of black people.

00:14:41.380 But the important thing

00:14:42.320 here is that

00:14:42.960 it's white people's fault.

00:14:45.220 That's the important part.

00:14:47.460 And I'm glad

00:14:48.060 that this racist mother 1.00

00:14:49.440 finally got to

00:14:50.800 the important part

00:14:51.640 that somehow

00:14:52.500 it's still white people's fault.

00:14:54.300 That's the key factor here.

00:14:59.320 Well, speaking on

00:15:00.460 more ridiculous

00:15:01.320 race-related things,

00:15:02.360 the Association of

00:15:03.380 American Medical Colleges

00:15:04.940 had some data

00:15:06.820 on different ethnicities

00:15:09.380 getting into medical school.

00:15:11.780 Now, I had heard

00:15:12.880 for a long time

00:15:13.660 that Asian Americans

00:15:16.840 were being suppressed

00:15:18.940 and discriminated against.

00:15:22.020 And I think there was

00:15:22.640 a lawsuit that they won

00:15:23.980 and they showed that.

00:15:25.540 But I didn't know

00:15:26.560 how bad it was.

00:15:28.040 Did you have any idea

00:15:29.060 how bad it is?

00:15:30.700 That the best

00:15:31.980 Asian American student

00:15:33.320 has the same chance

00:15:34.220 of getting into medical school

00:15:35.480 as the worst black student?

00:15:38.740 It's the same.

00:15:41.080 What?

00:15:42.660 Now, when I say the worst,

00:15:44.260 these are all people

00:15:45.100 who are within the range

00:15:46.200 of getting into medical school, right?

00:15:47.740 So the worst person

00:15:49.160 who gets into the medical school

00:15:50.200 is going to be smarter

00:15:51.920 than the average person.

00:15:53.640 But there's a huge difference.

00:15:57.620 Now, as someone tweeted,

00:16:00.160 it feels like they're trying

00:16:01.760 to make you a racist.

00:16:02.860 I mean, let's be honest here.

00:16:07.160 If you knew that one group

00:16:08.760 of people was getting in

00:16:09.820 with lower qualifications

00:16:11.000 than the other,

00:16:11.900 on average,

00:16:13.280 on average,

00:16:14.500 averages do not apply

00:16:15.760 to any individual.

00:16:17.580 But do you interview

00:16:18.780 your doctor?

00:16:21.080 Do you say,

00:16:21.940 well, this is just

00:16:22.540 a first interview.

00:16:24.280 If things don't go well,

00:16:26.560 I'm going to talk

00:16:27.060 to a few other doctors.

00:16:28.740 Some of you do.

00:16:29.980 Some of you do.

00:16:30.660 But would you actually know

00:16:32.680 how to judge

00:16:33.280 your doctor's qualifications

00:16:35.500 based on one conversation?

00:16:40.780 Because if they have a degree

00:16:42.420 from the same school,

00:16:43.480 what do you know about them?

00:16:44.800 Nothing.

00:16:45.380 You don't know anything about them.

00:16:47.300 How many of you think

00:16:48.560 that it would be,

00:16:50.240 let's say,

00:16:51.760 morally suspect,

00:16:54.640 but wise to discriminate 0.99

00:16:56.160 in choosing a doctor?

00:16:57.880 How many think it would be

00:16:58.760 to your best interest,

00:16:59.800 although we don't like

00:17:01.700 to discriminate?

00:17:03.180 I'm not recommending it.

00:17:04.400 How many think it would be

00:17:05.220 to your best interest

00:17:06.140 to discriminate wildly

00:17:07.460 in choosing a doctor,

00:17:08.760 given this data?

00:17:10.720 Yeah, it's mostly yeses,

00:17:11.920 of course.

00:17:13.200 Now,

00:17:14.320 nobody can recommend

00:17:16.800 discrimination,

00:17:18.820 but I would give you

00:17:19.860 this following guide.

00:17:23.640 If it's something about,

00:17:25.000 let's say, hiring,

00:17:26.300 hiring and firing,

00:17:27.160 you should really judge

00:17:29.020 the individual.

00:17:30.660 You really shouldn't.

00:17:32.060 If it's life and death,

00:17:33.540 though,

00:17:34.340 you should do whatever

00:17:35.660 you need to stay safe.

00:17:37.620 Would you agree?

00:17:38.640 If it's life and death,

00:17:41.840 discriminate all you want.

00:17:43.640 It's not even illegal.

00:17:45.900 Would you go into a neighborhood

00:17:47.400 that looked dangerous

00:17:50.080 statistically?

00:17:50.820 Or would you say,

00:17:52.760 well,

00:17:52.960 I'm going to judge

00:17:53.520 all the individuals

00:17:54.360 in that neighborhood

00:17:55.120 individually?

00:17:57.520 No.

00:17:58.040 You'd say,

00:17:58.440 that looks like

00:17:58.860 a dangerous neighborhood.

00:17:59.700 I'll stay out of it.

00:18:01.820 So,

00:18:02.540 yeah.

00:18:04.520 I do think that

00:18:05.680 if you're not discriminating

00:18:07.940 for your own well-being,

00:18:10.020 you're not doing it right.

00:18:12.420 Scott doesn't know

00:18:13.220 what discriminate means.

00:18:15.340 Pretty sure I do.

00:18:16.160 That's like the dumbest comment

00:18:17.400 I've seen forever.

00:18:22.280 All right.

00:18:24.100 So,

00:18:24.920 that was disturbing

00:18:25.780 that there's such a difference.

00:18:29.720 All right.

00:18:32.680 There was a Trump rally

00:18:34.060 in Waco.

00:18:36.680 And the Trump rally,

00:18:38.700 as the news likes to tell us,

00:18:40.080 is in the shadow

00:18:40.900 of his many legal problems.

00:18:43.600 His many legal problems.

00:18:45.220 So,

00:18:45.600 shall we summarize

00:18:46.340 Trump's many legal problems?

00:18:49.400 Yeah,

00:18:49.660 there are four of them,

00:18:50.440 and oh boy,

00:18:52.240 oh boy,

00:18:53.120 the walls are closing in.

00:18:54.540 There's a Stormy Daniels thing

00:18:56.080 that even Mario Cuomo,

00:18:58.480 the ex-governor of New York,

00:19:00.020 says,

00:19:00.480 quote,

00:19:01.160 I think it's all politics,

00:19:02.920 and that's what I think

00:19:03.700 the people of this country

00:19:04.600 are saying,

00:19:05.540 Cuomo continued.

00:19:06.620 It just feeds that anger

00:19:07.900 and that cynicism

00:19:08.780 and the partisanship.

00:19:11.060 Cuomo continues,

00:19:12.420 it's a coincidence

00:19:13.280 that Bragg goes after Trump

00:19:14.840 and Tish James goes after Trump

00:19:16.500 and Georgia goes after Trump.

00:19:18.140 That's all a coincidence.

00:19:19.780 I think it feeds the cynicism,

00:19:21.760 and that's the cancer

00:19:22.500 in our body politic right now.

00:19:24.260 If you can't convince Mario Cuomo

00:19:26.700 that this Stormy Daniels thing

00:19:30.140 is real,

00:19:31.460 even Mario Cuomo,

00:19:33.940 very Democrat,

00:19:35.840 says,

00:19:36.300 no,

00:19:36.520 it's not real.

00:19:37.620 It's just political.

00:19:38.760 All three of them.

00:19:40.260 All three of them.

00:19:41.980 So,

00:19:42.780 the Georgia

00:19:43.680 find the votes.

00:19:45.400 Do you really think

00:19:46.180 there's any chance

00:19:47.040 that Trump is in legal trouble

00:19:49.320 for saying find votes?

00:19:52.060 No.

00:19:52.940 You don't have to be

00:19:54.220 Dershowitz to know

00:19:55.900 you couldn't possibly

00:19:56.880 prosecute him

00:19:57.620 for using the words

00:19:58.960 find votes.

00:20:00.760 You know,

00:20:01.020 the news is trying to say

00:20:02.080 he pressured,

00:20:03.060 he did all these things,

00:20:04.120 but when you come down to it,

00:20:05.420 you have to look at

00:20:05.980 what he said,

00:20:07.540 and what he said

00:20:08.320 does not indicate a crime.

00:20:09.820 So there's no risk in that.

00:20:12.120 The January 6th protest,

00:20:13.680 protest peacefully.

00:20:15.580 He's been looked into completely.

00:20:17.320 There's nothing there.

00:20:18.720 There's no prosecution

00:20:19.640 that's going to happen there.

00:20:20.760 How about those

00:20:21.320 Mar-a-Lago documents?

00:20:24.360 Well,

00:20:24.920 it's a little awkward

00:20:25.780 now that Joe Biden

00:20:26.900 has some documents,

00:20:28.160 isn't it?

00:20:29.380 So,

00:20:30.000 there are four legal problems

00:20:31.740 for Trump,

00:20:32.320 and all four of them

00:20:33.180 help him.

00:20:34.420 All four of them

00:20:35.500 help him,

00:20:36.460 because there's no way

00:20:37.200 he's getting prosecuted

00:20:38.140 for any of this,

00:20:39.400 or if it is,

00:20:40.320 it would be a misdemeanor

00:20:41.220 or something.

00:20:42.400 And,

00:20:42.900 all it does is,

00:20:45.420 as Mario Cuomo says,

00:20:47.600 accurately,

00:20:48.440 it just feeds the anger

00:20:49.540 and cynicism.

00:20:51.280 Do you think that

00:20:51.880 has anything to do

00:20:52.680 with why his Waco rally

00:20:54.320 was huge?

00:20:55.960 Very successful

00:20:56.800 Waco rally,

00:20:57.700 apparently.

00:20:59.000 Yeah.

00:20:59.720 I feel like these

00:21:00.940 attacks on Trump

00:21:02.500 are making him

00:21:03.080 stronger at the moment.

00:21:03.940 I also feel

00:21:08.360 that

00:21:08.740 the only reason

00:21:10.740 that DeSantis

00:21:11.540 was looking so good

00:21:13.540 is that

00:21:14.900 Trump was

00:21:15.640 removing himself

00:21:16.460 from the news

00:21:17.120 for so long.

00:21:18.800 Have you noticed

00:21:19.600 that the moment

00:21:20.300 Trump

00:21:20.820 gets close

00:21:23.300 to powering up,

00:21:24.760 like he's just

00:21:25.540 starting to power up

00:21:26.480 into full strength,

00:21:27.600 as soon as he does,

00:21:29.320 DeSantis disappears,

00:21:31.200 doesn't he?

00:21:31.980 And I mean in terms

00:21:34.480 of the wattage,

00:21:35.960 you know,

00:21:36.080 just the energy.

00:21:38.200 Like,

00:21:38.480 Trump is just

00:21:39.300 infinitely interesting.

00:21:42.200 Love him or hate him,

00:21:43.240 he's interesting.

00:21:44.440 And DeSantis,

00:21:45.600 I try to be interesting,

00:21:48.100 I try to be interested in him,

00:21:49.700 but I have to work at it.

00:21:51.240 Would you agree?

00:21:52.680 I want DeSantis

00:21:53.640 to be interesting,

00:21:54.560 but I have to,

00:21:55.160 I have to kind of

00:21:56.420 put a little effort

00:21:57.100 into finding out

00:21:58.100 what he's up to.

00:21:59.580 But with Trump,

00:22:00.340 it's like,

00:22:00.620 yeah, do some more Trump,

00:22:02.320 entertain me.

00:22:03.400 Like, I'm just

00:22:03.900 automatically drawn

00:22:04.860 to that energy.

00:22:05.800 And it doesn't have

00:22:06.560 to do with policy.

00:22:07.840 It's not about policy.

00:22:09.480 Because I don't,

00:22:10.540 you know,

00:22:11.080 I don't have some

00:22:11.820 big difference

00:22:13.300 in policy

00:22:13.920 between the two of them

00:22:15.020 that's animating me

00:22:17.280 right now.

00:22:19.560 Well,

00:22:21.080 so I would say

00:22:21.900 that if Trump

00:22:22.480 just stays healthy

00:22:23.380 and doesn't create

00:22:24.380 some new,

00:22:25.300 some new issue,

00:22:27.960 he should waltz

00:22:29.840 right into

00:22:30.300 the nomination.

00:22:31.860 What do you think?

00:22:35.420 Yeah.

00:22:35.980 Now,

00:22:36.200 I'm still,

00:22:36.700 I'm still endorsing

00:22:38.280 Vivek Ramaswamy

00:22:40.700 because I think

00:22:41.720 we need somebody

00:22:42.240 younger.

00:22:43.040 And I think that

00:22:43.880 Trump is

00:22:44.940 insanely

00:22:46.140 divisive.

00:22:49.180 Now,

00:22:49.640 he's divisive

00:22:50.360 not because of

00:22:51.020 what he says

00:22:51.740 exactly,

00:22:52.820 but because of

00:22:53.560 the way the Democrats

00:22:54.360 are going to treat him.

00:22:55.100 So Trump is divisive

00:22:57.400 the same way Obama was.

00:22:59.680 You put Obama

00:23:00.660 in office

00:23:01.360 and you know

00:23:02.100 Fox News

00:23:02.760 is going to go crazy

00:23:03.720 on him for eight years.

00:23:05.400 You put Trump

00:23:06.240 in office,

00:23:06.840 you know CNN

00:23:07.440 and MSNBC 0.81

00:23:08.260 are going to go crazy

00:23:09.160 on him for eight years.

00:23:10.240 But I don't know

00:23:11.220 that that would be

00:23:11.820 different with anybody else.

00:23:14.320 Maybe less wattage.

00:23:16.100 You know,

00:23:16.240 DeSantis would be

00:23:17.020 more of a boring,

00:23:17.960 muted attack

00:23:18.860 or something.

00:23:19.880 But it's,

00:23:20.780 I think we're at the point

00:23:21.620 where it's going to be

00:23:23.160 full-scale war

00:23:24.240 no matter whether

00:23:25.200 it's a Democrat

00:23:25.820 or a Republican.

00:23:27.220 Probably doesn't matter.

00:23:30.780 All right.

00:23:34.120 Trump is getting

00:23:34.900 some pushback

00:23:35.720 because he's saying

00:23:36.500 that if he gets

00:23:38.220 indicted

00:23:40.680 or arrested

00:23:42.120 for this

00:23:42.720 Stormy Daniels stuff

00:23:44.540 that there could be

00:23:46.540 quote,

00:23:46.840 what is known by all

00:23:47.780 that no crime

00:23:48.480 has been committed,

00:23:49.380 talking about

00:23:49.880 the Stormy Daniels payments,

00:23:51.520 and also known

00:23:52.400 that potential death

00:23:53.360 and destruction

00:23:54.100 in such a false charge

00:23:55.940 could be catastrophic

00:23:57.240 for our country.

00:23:58.880 So Trump is basically

00:23:59.940 saying that his supporters

00:24:02.060 might turn to

00:24:03.720 death and destruction

00:24:04.820 if he's charged.

00:24:08.220 That's not ideal,

00:24:09.520 is it?

00:24:10.760 That's not ideal.

00:24:12.480 But you know what else?

00:24:13.820 It's also honest.

00:24:16.320 It's hard for me

00:24:17.240 to get,

00:24:18.100 like,

00:24:19.140 I want to not like this

00:24:20.420 because it seems

00:24:21.640 so unproductive.

00:24:23.660 But I can't fault him

00:24:25.520 for being honest.

00:24:27.260 There is a risk

00:24:28.400 of death and destruction.

00:24:30.520 And I don't mean,

00:24:31.500 and I certainly don't mean

00:24:32.420 that to be any kind of

00:24:33.260 like warning

00:24:33.880 or anything like that.

00:24:35.000 I'm just saying

00:24:35.760 as an objective fact,

00:24:38.200 it's probably true.

00:24:39.940 Now,

00:24:40.320 I don't think it'd be massive.

00:24:42.520 You know,

00:24:42.720 he uses hyperbole.

00:24:44.500 But I think there could be

00:24:45.580 trouble.

00:24:45.900 And the trouble would be

00:24:49.000 because the charges

00:24:51.500 would be so obviously

00:24:52.520 political.

00:24:53.200 As Mario Cuomo points out,

00:24:55.260 everybody can see

00:24:56.060 it's political.

00:24:57.380 So,

00:24:58.000 do you want to live

00:24:59.040 in a country where,

00:25:01.520 let me ask you this,

00:25:03.280 would you be happier

00:25:04.180 living in a country

00:25:05.080 where Trump

00:25:05.700 could be arrested

00:25:06.540 on an obviously

00:25:07.740 false charge

00:25:08.580 to take him off

00:25:09.900 and there would be

00:25:11.000 no violence?

00:25:13.920 No violence?

00:25:14.600 Is that the country

00:25:16.340 you want to live in?

00:25:17.880 That somebody

00:25:19.160 could be taken

00:25:19.740 off the field

00:25:20.360 for obviously

00:25:21.520 not legal means.

00:25:23.360 Obviously not legal.

00:25:24.800 Now,

00:25:25.180 I think you want to

00:25:25.900 live in a country

00:25:26.620 where violence

00:25:27.800 is on the table.

00:25:29.520 I don't recommend it.

00:25:31.560 Do not recommend it.

00:25:32.920 I want to be as clear

00:25:33.800 as possible.

00:25:34.920 Do not recommend violence.

00:25:36.760 But I don't want

00:25:37.560 to live in a country

00:25:38.160 where it's not

00:25:38.700 on the table.

00:25:40.420 So I'm going to say

00:25:41.160 it's on the table.

00:25:41.760 It's just on the table.

00:25:45.360 I don't recommend it.

00:25:46.860 But let's not

00:25:47.780 kid ourselves.

00:25:48.840 If you take down

00:25:49.860 a president

00:25:50.360 on bogus charges

00:25:52.100 that are obviously bogus,

00:25:53.840 yeah, there could be

00:25:54.600 some violence.

00:25:55.980 And I don't want

00:25:56.860 to live in a country

00:25:57.440 where that's not true.

00:25:59.220 At the same time,

00:26:00.160 I don't want any violence.

00:26:04.820 All right.

00:26:05.380 I don't know

00:26:07.340 if you noticed

00:26:07.940 that Trump

00:26:09.300 is jumping

00:26:12.140 on the Bill Maher

00:26:12.960 comment that

00:26:13.660 DeSantis is the

00:26:14.580 tribute band.

00:26:16.080 You may remember

00:26:17.040 I told you

00:26:17.760 that once you hear

00:26:18.740 that DeSantis

00:26:19.420 is the tribute band,

00:26:21.040 that's like a kill shot.

00:26:23.360 I was wondering

00:26:24.200 how long it would

00:26:24.880 take Trump

00:26:25.760 to repeat that.

00:26:28.920 Didn't take him long.

00:26:30.680 He was on it.

00:26:31.700 Yeah, so he's definitely

00:26:35.180 echoing that

00:26:36.140 tribute band thing.

00:26:37.100 You know, he's quoting

00:26:37.700 Bill Maher,

00:26:38.420 which makes it stronger.

00:26:41.800 So if you're wondering

00:26:44.340 if Trump still has

00:26:45.560 that keen political instinct

00:26:48.000 that got him

00:26:48.820 to be president

00:26:49.460 the first time,

00:26:50.600 well, this would be

00:26:51.520 one indication, yes.

00:26:54.140 Yeah, it's not everything.

00:26:56.640 But we do see

00:26:58.140 the spark of having

00:27:00.060 basically a higher

00:27:01.440 gear than the people

00:27:02.460 he's competing against.

00:27:03.440 That's what I see.

00:27:06.540 So an article

00:27:07.400 by Julie Kelly

00:27:08.660 in American Greatness.

00:27:11.940 And I was not

00:27:13.360 up to date

00:27:13.920 on how many FBI agents

00:27:15.840 have been outed

00:27:16.900 in various operations.

00:27:19.400 But apparently

00:27:20.060 the Proud Boys

00:27:20.920 involvement in January 6,

00:27:22.980 according to this

00:27:23.540 Julie Kelly story,

00:27:25.080 was almost entirely

00:27:26.720 set up by the FBI.

00:27:29.340 So here's what we know.

00:27:30.600 the leader of the Proud Boys

00:27:32.500 was not there

00:27:33.200 on January 6.

00:27:35.180 The leader wasn't there.

00:27:37.200 Which tells me

00:27:38.220 it wasn't coming

00:27:39.660 from leadership.

00:27:41.520 It was coming

00:27:42.340 from somewhere else.

00:27:43.440 Now we know

00:27:44.060 that apparently

00:27:45.020 there was a map,

00:27:46.700 I think a map found

00:27:47.800 with the Proud Boys

00:27:48.700 that would show

00:27:49.580 sort of an angle

00:27:50.380 of attack

00:27:50.880 for the Capitol.

00:27:52.140 And if you thought

00:27:52.820 that the Proud Boys

00:27:53.580 had a map

00:27:54.240 for an insurrection

00:27:55.520 and had to get

00:27:56.500 to the vulnerable

00:27:57.040 parts of the Capitol,

00:27:57.840 did you know

00:27:58.880 that that came

00:27:59.440 from the FBI?

00:28:01.400 That was an FBI map.

00:28:03.520 The FBI was giving it

00:28:05.120 to the Proud Boys.

00:28:07.320 Like,

00:28:08.280 that's in the news.

00:28:10.100 I mean,

00:28:10.400 I think it's true.

00:28:11.780 I don't trust

00:28:12.600 the news anymore,

00:28:13.400 but I think it's true.

00:28:15.900 Now when you hear

00:28:16.620 stuff like that,

00:28:18.160 and I don't think

00:28:18.940 there were any

00:28:19.300 Proud Boys,

00:28:20.160 were there any

00:28:20.620 Proud Boys

00:28:21.220 that got picked up

00:28:22.040 for violence?

00:28:23.060 None of them

00:28:23.580 were armed.

00:28:24.580 They weren't armed.

00:28:25.360 So more and more

00:28:27.960 it looks like

00:28:28.500 January 6th

00:28:29.300 was, you know,

00:28:30.980 an FBI operation,

00:28:32.360 some kind of an op.

00:28:33.860 And more and more

00:28:34.820 it looks like

00:28:35.240 the Democrats

00:28:35.720 are basically

00:28:38.180 a criminal organization

00:28:39.400 at this point.

00:28:41.060 They are a criminal

00:28:42.220 organization.

00:28:43.780 I think you could

00:28:44.520 use a RICO law

00:28:45.440 to take down

00:28:46.000 all the Democrats

00:28:46.800 at this point.

00:28:48.220 Like, actually?

00:28:49.780 Like, actually,

00:28:50.760 literally?

00:28:52.480 Couldn't you?

00:28:53.340 Is there any lawyer

00:28:54.040 who can tell me

00:28:55.020 I feel like

00:28:56.460 the collusion

00:28:58.520 that's been used

00:29:00.460 against Trump

00:29:01.340 should be a RICO

00:29:03.600 violation, right?

00:29:04.740 Because they're acting

00:29:05.280 like a criminal

00:29:05.980 organization.

00:29:07.120 They're not acting

00:29:07.920 like a political

00:29:08.480 organization.

00:29:09.780 They're actually

00:29:10.560 committing crimes

00:29:11.780 under an organized

00:29:13.740 umbrella of

00:29:14.720 associations.

00:29:17.160 That's RICO, right?

00:29:20.180 Sovereign immunity?

00:29:22.120 Do individuals

00:29:23.060 have sovereign immunity?

00:29:25.020 I don't think

00:29:25.880 a member of

00:29:26.640 the intelligence

00:29:27.280 agency

00:29:27.880 have sovereign

00:29:28.920 immunity.

00:29:30.440 I'm talking

00:29:30.840 about, you know,

00:29:33.280 maybe Congress

00:29:35.200 has some immunity,

00:29:36.740 but there's still

00:29:37.300 enough people

00:29:38.080 as part of the

00:29:38.880 operation.

00:29:42.460 Yeah.

00:29:43.520 Who would charge

00:29:44.360 them?

00:29:44.680 Yeah, that's the

00:29:45.200 problem.

00:29:46.600 RICO is just 0.99

00:29:47.300 politics.

00:29:49.520 State actors

00:29:50.280 have immunity.

00:29:51.160 immunity.

00:29:52.100 Well, what is

00:29:52.740 a state actor?

00:29:54.720 If you're an 0.51

00:29:55.500 elected official,

00:29:56.380 you have immunity,

00:29:57.560 or probably an

00:29:58.560 appointed official,

00:29:59.820 right?

00:30:00.440 But what if you're

00:30:01.620 just working for a

00:30:04.500 paycheck, or you're

00:30:05.780 a political pundit

00:30:06.680 on TV, or you're

00:30:08.460 the news?

00:30:09.760 Because I think

00:30:10.260 you could find a

00:30:11.140 web of RICO-type

00:30:13.060 connections with

00:30:15.380 members of the

00:30:15.980 media, employees of

00:30:19.960 the Department of

00:30:20.640 Justice, employees

00:30:21.720 of the FBI, are

00:30:24.200 they all immune?

00:30:27.180 Yeah, I don't

00:30:27.920 think they have

00:30:28.380 immunity for

00:30:28.980 illegal actions,

00:30:30.140 do they?

00:30:30.980 They probably have

00:30:31.920 only immunity for

00:30:33.480 civil suits.

00:30:35.200 Would that be

00:30:35.660 true?

00:30:36.680 Because, yeah, if

00:30:37.560 you do a criminal

00:30:38.680 thing, it doesn't

00:30:39.760 matter if you're

00:30:40.200 elected.

00:30:40.920 That's the whole

00:30:42.080 point of this

00:30:42.520 stuff against

00:30:42.960 Trump.

00:30:45.600 They're immune

00:30:46.340 from, yeah, they're

00:30:47.560 not immune from

00:30:48.180 criminal law.

00:30:49.960 Well, in my

00:30:52.280 opinion, it's gone

00:30:53.260 to the level where

00:30:54.220 it looks like just

00:30:55.040 a criminal

00:30:55.800 organization.

00:30:57.940 That's not

00:30:58.620 hyperbole.

00:30:59.840 I don't intend

00:31:00.860 that to be

00:31:01.300 hyperbole.

00:31:02.000 I think the

00:31:02.720 Democrats have

00:31:03.360 actually reached

00:31:04.320 the level,

00:31:05.480 collectively, that

00:31:06.800 it looks like a

00:31:07.340 RICO case to

00:31:08.040 me.

00:31:10.500 Now, I don't

00:31:11.140 think there's any

00:31:11.700 chance of that

00:31:12.200 happening, but I

00:31:15.020 don't see them as

00:31:16.240 just a political

00:31:17.220 party anymore.

00:31:18.000 think about all

00:31:19.680 the things that

00:31:20.280 Republicans have

00:31:21.080 been blamed of,

00:31:22.560 blamed for.

00:31:24.360 Mostly, they're

00:31:25.540 blamed for crimes

00:31:26.600 that didn't

00:31:27.060 happen.

00:31:28.800 Obviously, there

00:31:29.540 are lots of

00:31:29.980 lower-level

00:31:30.500 officials of all

00:31:31.440 types who get

00:31:32.060 convicted for

00:31:33.240 everything.

00:31:33.800 So I'm not

00:31:34.200 talking about the

00:31:34.940 state official you

00:31:36.060 heard about that

00:31:36.620 one time.

00:31:37.700 But in national

00:31:39.360 politics, it

00:31:41.160 seems to me the

00:31:41.820 Republicans have

00:31:42.600 not committed any

00:31:43.480 major crimes.

00:31:44.280 I guess you

00:31:46.620 count people

00:31:47.460 like Michael

00:31:50.440 Cohen or

00:31:51.040 something, but

00:31:51.560 are they

00:31:51.840 political?

00:31:52.680 I guess they

00:31:53.180 are, sort of.

00:31:55.580 Yeah.

00:31:56.480 To me, it

00:31:56.940 looks like one 0.66

00:31:59.280 is a criminal

00:31:59.780 organization and

00:32:00.540 the other is

00:32:00.840 not.

00:32:02.100 All right.

00:32:03.000 AOC came out

00:32:04.020 against banning

00:32:05.020 TikTok.

00:32:06.280 Would you like

00:32:06.920 to know the

00:32:07.440 reasons that she

00:32:08.140 gave for wanting

00:32:10.040 to not ban

00:32:11.640 TikTok?

00:32:12.020 Here's AOC.

00:32:14.080 She looked

00:32:14.420 into it, and

00:32:15.680 the reasons she

00:32:16.320 gave are, I'll

00:32:17.020 just summarize

00:32:17.480 them.

00:32:18.620 I don't

00:32:19.380 understand anything

00:32:20.240 about the

00:32:20.720 topic.

00:32:21.960 That's my

00:32:22.420 summarization of

00:32:23.820 her reasons.

00:32:24.980 Her reasons

00:32:25.620 showed she

00:32:26.140 didn't understand

00:32:26.880 the topic at

00:32:27.520 all.

00:32:28.420 She actually

00:32:29.040 ignored the

00:32:29.960 influence part

00:32:30.980 of it, where

00:32:32.260 China can just 0.98

00:32:33.600 decide how to

00:32:34.280 influence us by

00:32:35.180 tweaking them.

00:32:36.980 Acting like

00:32:37.580 that didn't

00:32:38.020 exist.

00:32:39.060 Now, what if I

00:32:39.660 told you about

00:32:40.360 the people who

00:32:40.840 act like the

00:32:41.400 big risk, the

00:32:42.720 influence part,

00:32:44.080 is the, it

00:32:47.540 doesn't exist.

00:32:48.560 And they act

00:32:49.180 like the data

00:32:49.760 security part is

00:32:50.800 real, and then

00:32:51.860 they take it to

00:32:52.480 the next level of

00:32:53.480 obviously either

00:32:54.260 lying or bought

00:32:55.020 off, which is

00:32:56.180 they say, well,

00:32:57.220 other American

00:32:58.740 companies have, you

00:33:00.720 know, data

00:33:01.040 problems, so why

00:33:03.580 would we be

00:33:04.960 racist against

00:33:05.680 China? 0.73

00:33:06.600 So imagine, if

00:33:07.800 you will, that in

00:33:08.700 public, she's 0.81

00:33:09.840 acting like an

00:33:10.560 American company

00:33:11.480 should be treated

00:33:12.180 the same as an

00:33:13.400 adversarial country,

00:33:15.240 China.

00:33:16.260 Acts like there's

00:33:17.080 no difference

00:33:17.780 between our own

00:33:19.060 country and an

00:33:19.900 adversary country.

00:33:21.880 That, what is

00:33:23.060 that?

00:33:24.020 Now, I can't even

00:33:24.760 tell if that's

00:33:25.360 stupid or just

00:33:26.240 bought off.

00:33:28.200 I mean, nobody

00:33:29.480 would be that

00:33:30.340 stupid, right?

00:33:31.540 Except that there

00:33:32.320 are a number of

00:33:32.860 politicians who are

00:33:33.960 acting exactly that

00:33:35.960 stupid. 0.90

00:33:36.320 And I really

00:33:37.920 can't tell if

00:33:39.100 they think the

00:33:39.660 data security

00:33:40.320 problem is the

00:33:41.020 big problem, and

00:33:42.520 they just don't

00:33:43.140 know the other

00:33:43.600 one is there, or

00:33:44.920 are they lying?

00:33:47.160 Are they lying?

00:33:49.260 So here's my

00:33:50.160 take on TikTok.

00:33:51.780 100% of the

00:33:52.740 people who can

00:33:53.420 explain the risk

00:33:55.060 want to ban it.

00:33:58.540 100% of the

00:33:59.500 people who can

00:34:00.120 explain the risk

00:34:01.400 want to ban it.

00:34:02.660 In other words,

00:34:03.120 if you see

00:34:03.580 somebody say,

00:34:04.620 well, there are

00:34:05.400 two risks.

00:34:06.420 One is they get

00:34:07.080 our private data,

00:34:08.160 correct, correct.

00:34:09.920 And the other is

00:34:10.600 that they can

00:34:11.040 influence our

00:34:11.740 opinions through

00:34:13.280 the algorithm,

00:34:14.340 correct.

00:34:15.240 There's nobody,

00:34:16.480 here's my claim,

00:34:17.940 nobody who can

00:34:18.680 even explain the

00:34:19.900 risks is in

00:34:22.460 favor of keeping

00:34:23.180 TikTok.

00:34:24.380 Nobody.

00:34:25.380 You won't see

00:34:26.020 it.

00:34:27.080 Everybody who is

00:34:28.080 in favor of

00:34:29.220 keeping TikTok

00:34:29.940 will be unable

00:34:31.500 to explain the

00:34:32.680 situation.

00:34:33.800 And they'll

00:34:34.140 say stuff like,

00:34:35.380 well, Facebook

00:34:36.220 has your data

00:34:36.860 too.

00:34:38.160 If you say

00:34:38.940 Facebook has

00:34:39.700 your data

00:34:40.100 too, you

00:34:41.260 are either

00:34:41.880 stupid, you 0.91

00:34:43.700 know, so

00:34:44.080 uninformed that

00:34:44.800 I think I'd

00:34:45.500 have to call you

00:34:45.980 stupid, or 0.52

00:34:46.980 you're lying.

00:34:48.220 You're lying

00:34:48.940 because you

00:34:49.360 think it's

00:34:49.660 good for your,

00:34:50.580 I don't know,

00:34:51.480 your politics or

00:34:52.440 something.

00:34:53.760 Yeah.

00:34:54.000 Or both.

00:34:54.980 Yeah, she

00:34:55.300 could be stupid

00:34:55.920 and lying,

00:34:56.500 that's true.

00:34:59.020 Yeah.

00:35:01.140 Mahat, are you

00:35:01.860 really saying

00:35:02.360 that Facebook

00:35:03.040 has your data

00:35:03.680 too?

00:35:04.740 I can't tell

00:35:05.720 if that's a

00:35:06.220 joke.

00:35:09.760 Oh my God,

00:35:10.560 there are people

00:35:10.920 on YouTube

00:35:11.420 saying what's

00:35:12.020 the difference

00:35:12.460 between Facebook

00:35:13.300 having your data

00:35:14.020 and China.

00:35:15.320 I want to see

00:35:16.080 you say that

00:35:16.600 out loud.

00:35:17.920 Say in the

00:35:18.360 comments, I

00:35:18.700 want to see

00:35:19.060 how stupid

00:35:20.640 you are.

00:35:21.640 Ask me what's

00:35:22.320 the difference

00:35:22.760 between an

00:35:23.340 American company

00:35:24.060 having your data

00:35:24.780 and a Chinese

00:35:26.780 adversarial company.

00:35:28.660 Ask it again.

00:35:29.340 I want to see

00:35:30.700 you put that

00:35:31.220 in writing.

00:35:32.100 Go ahead.

00:35:37.100 There it is.

00:35:38.260 Facebook is as

00:35:39.140 bad as China. 0.93

00:35:41.120 There's somebody

00:35:41.800 willing to say

00:35:42.520 that out loud

00:35:43.100 in public,

00:35:44.260 that Facebook

00:35:44.780 is as bad

00:35:45.480 as China.

00:35:48.720 Are you,

00:35:49.720 are you a

00:35:51.700 Chinese troll? 0.83

00:35:52.480 I mean,

00:35:53.780 nobody with a

00:35:54.420 brain could

00:35:54.880 think that.

00:35:57.720 All right.

00:35:59.560 So,

00:36:01.380 here's a

00:36:02.640 question for you.

00:36:03.440 Has AOC

00:36:04.180 ever been in

00:36:05.360 favor of a

00:36:05.940 policy that

00:36:07.300 wasn't good

00:36:07.900 for China?

00:36:09.800 Now, I don't

00:36:10.500 know the answer

00:36:10.960 to this,

00:36:11.640 but I'll say,

00:36:13.160 so AOC is

00:36:13.960 big for climate

00:36:14.720 change,

00:36:15.860 which is mostly

00:36:16.620 good for China, 0.92

00:36:17.580 bad for the

00:36:18.100 United States.

00:36:19.420 Did she

00:36:20.060 oppose

00:36:20.580 tariffs?

00:36:23.040 Did AOC

00:36:23.820 oppose

00:36:24.380 tariffs on

00:36:25.580 China? 0.73

00:36:26.680 Because Trump's

00:36:27.920 the first one

00:36:28.420 who brought it

00:36:28.880 up, so I

00:36:30.160 feel like she

00:36:30.680 probably did.

00:36:32.560 Is she in

00:36:33.320 favor of ESG,

00:36:34.580 which is

00:36:35.220 terrible for

00:36:35.840 America?

00:36:36.820 Yes.

00:36:38.040 Yep.

00:36:39.620 Yeah, I don't

00:36:40.480 think there's

00:36:40.960 anything that

00:36:41.880 she's in favor

00:36:42.460 of that isn't

00:36:43.020 good for China 1.00

00:36:43.580 and bad for

00:36:44.080 America.

00:36:45.420 Has anybody

00:36:46.140 not noticed

00:36:46.820 that?

00:36:47.920 Am I the

00:36:48.340 only one who's

00:36:48.940 noticed that all

00:36:49.700 of her policies

00:36:50.340 are pro-China

00:36:51.100 and anti-American?

00:36:53.280 It's a little

00:36:54.020 bit hard to

00:36:54.700 miss the

00:36:55.720 pattern at

00:36:56.220 this point.

00:36:57.480 It's a pretty

00:36:57.940 big pattern.

00:37:01.520 Well,

00:37:02.940 Professor Scott

00:37:03.840 Galloway was

00:37:04.500 on real time

00:37:05.260 with Bill

00:37:06.300 Maher,

00:37:07.400 and TikTok

00:37:08.280 came up,

00:37:09.600 and I like

00:37:11.680 to call Scott

00:37:12.240 Galloway one

00:37:13.020 of the better

00:37:13.460 Scots.

00:37:14.960 I keep track

00:37:15.920 of all the

00:37:16.260 people named

00:37:16.700 Scott.

00:37:17.120 in case one's

00:37:19.600 a murderer.

00:37:21.540 Was it

00:37:22.140 Scott Peterson?

00:37:23.180 Was it Scott

00:37:23.780 Peterson who

00:37:24.320 killed his

00:37:24.720 wife?

00:37:25.880 That's a bad

00:37:26.400 Scott.

00:37:27.540 So you have

00:37:28.080 some bad

00:37:28.540 Scots,

00:37:29.680 and you got

00:37:30.060 some good

00:37:30.440 ones.

00:37:31.640 So Scott

00:37:32.300 Galloway,

00:37:32.980 he's at least

00:37:34.720 in the top

00:37:35.280 five of

00:37:35.840 Scots.

00:37:36.940 He might

00:37:37.280 even be in

00:37:37.680 the top

00:37:37.960 three.

00:37:38.300 He's an

00:37:38.560 excellent

00:37:38.800 Scott.

00:37:39.360 He does

00:37:39.760 a very

00:37:40.100 good

00:37:40.340 Scott,

00:37:41.440 and I'm

00:37:42.100 happy to

00:37:42.480 have him

00:37:42.740 on board.

00:37:43.160 But when

00:37:45.420 he was

00:37:45.680 asked about

00:37:46.180 TikTok,

00:37:46.760 he accurately

00:37:47.640 described the

00:37:48.500 risk.

00:37:49.980 He accurately

00:37:50.600 said,

00:37:51.520 would you

00:37:51.780 want something

00:37:52.380 jacked into

00:37:52.980 your brain

00:37:53.500 where your

00:37:55.240 adversary could

00:37:55.980 push a button

00:37:56.500 and change

00:37:56.940 your opinion?

00:37:57.820 Because that's

00:37:58.240 what you have.

00:37:59.640 That's what

00:38:00.040 TikTok is.

00:38:01.320 I mean,

00:38:01.540 it's effectively

00:38:02.280 jacked into

00:38:02.980 your brain,

00:38:03.980 and China can

00:38:04.940 push one

00:38:05.420 button and

00:38:05.840 change your

00:38:06.240 opinion.

00:38:06.960 They can do

00:38:07.500 that.

00:38:08.080 Now,

00:38:08.240 the way he

00:38:08.560 put it was

00:38:09.040 even better

00:38:09.520 than I put

00:38:10.000 it,

00:38:10.580 which is they

00:38:11.320 can make

00:38:12.200 sure that

00:38:12.640 every day

00:38:13.240 their app

00:38:14.380 makes Americans

00:38:15.360 feel a little

00:38:16.020 bit shittier

00:38:16.660 about their

00:38:17.060 life.

00:38:18.420 What's that

00:38:18.840 do to your

00:38:19.220 country?

00:38:20.380 Every day

00:38:21.000 you feel a

00:38:21.560 little bit

00:38:21.860 shittier about

00:38:22.560 yourself and

00:38:23.160 your country.

00:38:24.480 Yeah,

00:38:24.760 that's what

00:38:25.120 it's doing

00:38:25.400 right now.

00:38:26.360 Now,

00:38:27.200 given that

00:38:28.220 Scott Galloway,

00:38:29.240 one of the

00:38:29.580 better Scots,

00:38:30.940 could accurately

00:38:31.900 describe the

00:38:32.680 risk,

00:38:33.180 what side do

00:38:33.720 you think he

00:38:34.080 was on?

00:38:35.880 Well,

00:38:36.280 I think I

00:38:36.660 broadcast that.

00:38:37.960 Everybody who

00:38:38.800 can accurately

00:38:39.780 describe the

00:38:40.820 risk is on

00:38:41.380 the same

00:38:41.640 side.

00:38:42.640 Everybody.

00:38:43.940 Everybody who

00:38:44.600 is either

00:38:44.940 lying to you

00:38:45.580 about the

00:38:45.920 risk or

00:38:46.280 leaving it

00:38:46.780 out,

00:38:47.740 they could

00:38:48.120 be on the

00:38:48.480 other side.

00:38:49.620 It's that

00:38:50.140 simple.

00:38:51.120 And you

00:38:51.480 could actually

00:38:51.980 do this

00:38:52.600 test.

00:38:53.420 I'd love to

00:38:53.940 see somebody

00:38:54.380 like Matt

00:38:55.080 Gates or

00:38:56.460 Thomas Massey

00:38:57.500 do this if

00:38:58.020 they have some

00:38:58.380 kind of thing.

00:38:59.820 Say, you

00:39:00.380 know, I've

00:39:01.840 discovered that

00:39:02.400 anybody who

00:39:02.860 can describe the

00:39:03.780 risk is against

00:39:04.500 it.

00:39:04.780 Can you describe

00:39:05.640 the risk in

00:39:06.240 your own words?

00:39:07.500 Can you describe

00:39:08.440 the risk?

00:39:09.020 And then

00:39:10.060 when they

00:39:10.400 fail to do

00:39:10.980 it, say,

00:39:11.720 are you not

00:39:12.240 aware of the

00:39:12.820 biggest risk?

00:39:14.400 Did you

00:39:14.940 actually come

00:39:15.620 prepared for

00:39:16.320 this hearing?

00:39:18.120 You're all

00:39:18.720 prepared and

00:39:19.520 you're here and

00:39:20.100 you don't know

00:39:20.640 the biggest risk

00:39:21.440 of TikTok?

00:39:22.360 That it's the

00:39:23.060 persuasion, not the

00:39:23.980 data?

00:39:25.320 How in the

00:39:26.120 world could you

00:39:26.700 come here and

00:39:27.160 not know the

00:39:27.700 biggest risk?

00:39:28.340 risk?

00:39:30.060 I'd love to

00:39:30.720 see that.

00:39:34.260 All right.

00:39:36.920 As you know,

00:39:37.660 AI is going to

00:39:38.360 change everything.

00:39:40.500 You know that

00:39:41.340 all of your

00:39:41.920 apps are going

00:39:42.420 to be obsolete

00:39:43.020 in about a

00:39:43.740 year, right?

00:39:45.560 Dating apps

00:39:46.240 might be an

00:39:46.700 exception because

00:39:47.960 you need an

00:39:48.520 audience of

00:39:49.100 people on both

00:39:49.660 sides.

00:39:50.080 It's not just

00:39:50.540 the app.

00:39:51.100 You need the

00:39:51.520 audience.

00:39:52.420 But your

00:39:54.180 phone is just

00:39:54.960 going to be you

00:39:55.440 telling it what

00:39:56.000 you want.

00:39:58.340 I don't even

00:39:59.900 think it needs

00:40:00.360 software.

00:40:01.260 It just needs

00:40:01.780 to connect,

00:40:02.480 I mean,

00:40:02.760 except minimal

00:40:03.580 software to

00:40:04.200 connect to

00:40:04.760 AI.

00:40:05.900 Because,

00:40:08.140 correct me if

00:40:08.960 I'm wrong,

00:40:10.700 if I had AI

00:40:11.720 on my phone,

00:40:13.260 and let's say

00:40:13.620 it was a phone

00:40:14.240 designed around

00:40:15.760 the AI interface,

00:40:17.100 so I can either

00:40:17.700 type in a message

00:40:18.900 or I can say it.

00:40:20.120 But if I wanted

00:40:20.800 to make a

00:40:21.420 spreadsheet and

00:40:23.160 the only software

00:40:24.000 I had was AI,

00:40:25.880 don't you think

00:40:26.480 I could already

00:40:27.200 say to it,

00:40:27.800 create a

00:40:29.340 spreadsheet and

00:40:30.580 I'm going to

00:40:32.400 start putting

00:40:32.780 some numbers

00:40:33.240 into it.

00:40:33.920 Put 200 into

00:40:35.920 the top of

00:40:37.140 that column.

00:40:38.640 You don't

00:40:38.980 think you

00:40:39.620 could just

00:40:39.920 talk to it

00:40:40.440 and it

00:40:40.660 would form

00:40:41.020 a spreadsheet

00:40:41.540 without ever

00:40:43.260 having any

00:40:43.760 spreadsheet software

00:40:44.720 natively in it?

00:40:46.820 I think it

00:40:47.540 would.

00:40:48.480 It would just

00:40:48.900 have to look

00:40:49.360 at what a

00:40:49.680 spreadsheet is and

00:40:50.440 then just make

00:40:51.240 it itself on

00:40:52.140 the fly.

00:40:54.660 So, and

00:40:55.880 suppose you

00:40:56.280 wanted to send

00:40:57.300 somebody a

00:40:57.780 message.

00:40:58.900 The old way 0.99

00:40:59.760 is you're

00:41:00.180 typing your

00:41:00.740 message and

00:41:01.280 you've got

00:41:01.600 typos and

00:41:02.320 bad grammar

00:41:02.940 and all that.

00:41:04.020 The new way

00:41:04.620 is going to

00:41:04.980 be, hey

00:41:06.820 AI, send

00:41:08.320 an email to

00:41:09.360 Bob, tell

00:41:10.680 him I'm

00:41:10.920 sorry I

00:41:11.320 missed the

00:41:11.620 meeting.

00:41:13.100 And then AI

00:41:14.060 would make up

00:41:14.640 a more polite

00:41:15.320 version of

00:41:15.920 sorry I missed

00:41:16.520 the meeting.

00:41:17.300 And you would

00:41:17.820 never even look

00:41:18.460 at it.

00:41:18.760 You'd just

00:41:19.000 say, eh,

00:41:19.620 go send

00:41:20.060 it.

00:41:20.200 All right.

00:41:24.020 So, here's

00:41:25.880 why I

00:41:26.320 mention that.

00:41:26.940 It's not

00:41:27.260 because the

00:41:27.920 future is

00:41:28.740 fun.

00:41:29.600 It's that

00:41:30.080 every one of

00:41:30.620 your tech

00:41:30.960 companies is

00:41:31.580 obsolete.

00:41:33.600 Did you

00:41:34.140 see that

00:41:34.800 coming?

00:41:35.840 It might

00:41:36.400 be the

00:41:36.820 most

00:41:37.640 existential

00:41:38.180 problem in

00:41:39.000 the country

00:41:39.360 right now,

00:41:40.640 meaning the

00:41:41.140 one that

00:41:41.440 could kill

00:41:41.820 you the

00:41:42.100 fastest,

00:41:43.060 is that

00:41:43.520 100% of

00:41:44.740 the economy

00:41:46.180 that depends

00:41:46.980 on having

00:41:47.720 all these

00:41:48.080 different

00:41:48.340 apps and

00:41:48.920 softwares.

00:41:49.780 It might

00:41:50.240 all be

00:41:51.200 obsolete in

00:41:52.040 a year.

00:41:53.340 All of

00:41:53.820 it.

00:41:55.060 It could

00:41:55.680 be the

00:41:56.040 only hardware

00:41:56.940 is what we

00:41:57.580 sell after

00:41:58.140 a year from

00:41:58.900 now.

00:41:59.520 Because

00:41:59.760 software is

00:42:00.280 just AI.

00:42:01.660 And AI

00:42:02.140 will do

00:42:02.620 everything.

00:42:03.900 So you

00:42:04.200 don't need

00:42:04.500 other software.

00:42:07.100 Here's how

00:42:07.800 I want to

00:42:08.240 post to

00:42:08.740 Twitter.

00:42:11.120 Hey,

00:42:11.400 AI,

00:42:12.660 send a

00:42:13.220 tweet out

00:42:13.780 that says

00:42:14.460 something like

00:42:15.060 this.

00:42:16.120 Post it

00:42:16.880 to all

00:42:18.000 my

00:42:18.200 social

00:42:18.520 networks

00:42:19.080 and

00:42:20.360 then

00:42:20.500 it

00:42:20.620 just

00:42:20.760 posts

00:42:21.080 all

00:42:21.260 the

00:42:21.420 social

00:42:21.680 networks.

00:42:23.680 I

00:42:24.080 never

00:42:24.260 have

00:42:24.440 to

00:42:24.540 put

00:42:24.680 in

00:42:24.780 a

00:42:24.920 password.

00:42:26.240 Imagine

00:42:26.580 not having

00:42:27.040 to use

00:42:27.320 passwords.

00:42:28.860 Because

00:42:29.120 the AI

00:42:29.540 knows

00:42:29.880 who you

00:42:30.220 are.

00:42:31.660 Because

00:42:31.860 I don't

00:42:32.120 think the

00:42:32.460 AI would

00:42:32.900 ever be

00:42:33.300 surprised.

00:42:33.920 The AI

00:42:34.460 is listening

00:42:34.820 to your

00:42:35.120 voice.

00:42:36.180 It might

00:42:36.420 be looking

00:42:36.760 at your

00:42:37.040 face.

00:42:38.060 It knows

00:42:38.620 the patterns

00:42:39.180 that you

00:42:39.480 type.

00:42:40.760 Your AI

00:42:41.380 would know

00:42:41.820 if you

00:42:42.080 were a

00:42:42.340 fake right

00:42:42.980 away.

00:42:44.100 So does

00:42:44.540 it ever

00:42:44.860 need any

00:42:45.800 kind of

00:42:46.340 credentials?

00:42:46.940 Do you

00:42:47.940 ever have

00:42:48.240 to put

00:42:48.460 in a

00:42:48.660 password?

00:42:49.960 My bank

00:42:50.720 already

00:42:51.020 uses my

00:42:51.520 voice.

00:42:52.420 But I

00:42:52.620 guess that's

00:42:52.980 going to

00:42:53.140 be dicey

00:42:53.660 because you

00:42:53.980 can fake

00:42:54.340 voices now.

00:42:57.340 You just

00:42:58.000 use your

00:42:58.340 face for

00:42:58.760 your password,

00:42:59.400 yeah.

00:43:00.380 So I

00:43:01.980 think it's

00:43:02.300 no passwords,

00:43:03.160 just faces,

00:43:04.260 biometrics,

00:43:04.860 things, and

00:43:06.000 no apps,

00:43:06.980 just AI.

00:43:09.000 We can't

00:43:09.780 even imagine

00:43:10.420 what this

00:43:10.860 is going

00:43:11.140 to be.

00:43:12.120 When the

00:43:12.800 experts say

00:43:13.460 you can't

00:43:14.100 imagine what's

00:43:15.340 going to

00:43:15.540 happen really

00:43:16.280 soon, you

00:43:17.160 really, really

00:43:17.840 can't imagine

00:43:18.820 it.

00:43:19.500 It's literally

00:43:20.160 beyond imagination.

00:43:21.720 And I don't

00:43:22.020 think we've

00:43:22.440 ever been

00:43:22.800 here before.

00:43:23.920 Because even

00:43:24.380 when the

00:43:24.740 internet was

00:43:25.240 formed, there's

00:43:25.940 this famous

00:43:26.360 video of

00:43:27.740 David Bowie.

00:43:31.580 When the

00:43:32.040 internet is just

00:43:32.840 formed, David

00:43:33.660 Bowie is

00:43:34.100 saying, you

00:43:34.800 have no

00:43:35.160 idea what

00:43:35.640 this is

00:43:36.000 going to

00:43:36.240 do.

00:43:37.120 It's going

00:43:37.720 to connect

00:43:38.400 everything and

00:43:39.240 everything will

00:43:39.760 be different.

00:43:40.840 So David

00:43:41.340 Bowie could

00:43:41.900 see it 20

00:43:42.880 years before

00:43:43.500 it happened.

00:43:44.780 But I

00:43:45.080 think everybody

00:43:45.660 could see that

00:43:46.240 with the

00:43:46.500 internet.

00:43:47.500 The internet

00:43:47.900 is sort of

00:43:48.300 easy to

00:43:48.740 understand.

00:43:49.340 It's just,

00:43:49.780 oh, everybody

00:43:50.860 is connected.

00:43:52.380 That's an

00:43:52.960 easy concept.

00:43:54.240 And as long

00:43:54.660 as you know

00:43:54.920 everybody is

00:43:55.360 connected, you

00:43:55.980 can kind

00:43:56.340 of intuit

00:43:57.380 what that

00:43:58.760 might look

00:43:59.160 like.

00:43:59.740 But you

00:44:00.040 cannot,

00:44:00.920 you cannot

00:44:02.040 intuit what

00:44:05.080 AI is going

00:44:05.720 to do.

00:44:06.980 I have no

00:44:07.760 idea.

00:44:08.760 And when you

00:44:09.140 combine AI

00:44:09.820 with robots

00:44:11.660 and when you

00:44:12.320 combine AI

00:44:13.200 with virtual

00:44:14.760 reality,

00:44:16.020 imagine entering

00:44:16.840 a virtual reality

00:44:17.860 world so it

00:44:18.940 looks real,

00:44:20.360 and the people

00:44:21.240 that you meet

00:44:21.760 there are

00:44:22.940 fully sentient,

00:44:25.480 and all of

00:44:26.320 your conversations

00:44:27.100 feel like real

00:44:28.200 people who

00:44:28.700 remember you.

00:44:29.360 imagine having

00:44:30.600 a real friend

00:44:31.400 in the virtual

00:44:32.100 world that

00:44:34.220 has no human

00:44:35.060 connection.

00:44:36.120 They're just

00:44:36.760 AI.

00:44:37.480 But they get

00:44:38.180 to know you

00:44:38.760 intimately,

00:44:39.620 and over time

00:44:40.920 they're more

00:44:41.340 and more personal,

00:44:42.360 and they say

00:44:42.760 more and more

00:44:43.120 of the things

00:44:43.480 you like to

00:44:43.980 hear, fewer

00:44:45.100 of the things

00:44:45.580 you don't like

00:44:46.080 to hear,

00:44:46.920 and you just

00:44:47.440 fall in love.

00:44:50.100 That's 100%

00:44:51.560 going to happen.

00:44:53.300 100%.

00:44:53.780 Guarantee it.

00:44:56.560 All right.

00:44:57.120 All right.

00:44:59.360 Do you keep

00:45:01.240 seeing these

00:45:01.960 horrible videos

00:45:03.280 of people in

00:45:04.420 the Congo and

00:45:05.440 various parts of

00:45:06.300 Africa mining

00:45:07.620 for these rare

00:45:09.000 earth minerals,

00:45:10.380 and it's just

00:45:10.880 this big dirty

00:45:11.780 pit with people

00:45:13.400 who are covered

00:45:14.100 head to toe

00:45:15.100 with whatever

00:45:16.480 the dirt is

00:45:17.260 that they're

00:45:17.560 digging through?

00:45:18.880 And I saw

00:45:19.760 one yesterday,

00:45:20.400 there was a

00:45:21.480 cobalt mine,

00:45:23.820 and some people

00:45:25.200 were being dug

00:45:25.880 out that there

00:45:26.720 was going to

00:45:27.000 collapse,

00:45:27.740 but they got

00:45:28.140 them out,

00:45:28.580 and everybody's

00:45:28.960 cheering,

00:45:29.360 and stuff.

00:45:30.320 I had two

00:45:31.900 takes on that

00:45:32.820 video.

00:45:33.460 Number one,

00:45:34.780 I looked at it

00:45:35.480 and it looked

00:45:35.760 like the saddest,

00:45:36.860 worst, you

00:45:38.740 know, criminally

00:45:39.860 dangerous situation

00:45:41.400 I've ever seen

00:45:42.080 in my life.

00:45:43.360 And then I heard

00:45:44.360 the people cheering

00:45:45.260 all happily and

00:45:47.020 laughing when they

00:45:47.820 got their

00:45:48.560 co-workers out

00:45:49.680 from under a

00:45:51.040 collapse.

00:45:52.220 And I thought

00:45:53.020 to myself,

00:45:54.180 have you ever

00:45:54.600 studied the

00:45:56.100 theory of

00:45:56.720 happiness?

00:45:58.400 And the people

00:45:58.880 have this

00:45:59.220 baseline happiness

00:46:00.300 that even

00:46:01.320 if you have

00:46:01.700 an amputation,

00:46:03.220 you know,

00:46:03.440 a month later

00:46:03.960 you go back

00:46:04.400 to your baseline

00:46:04.940 of happiness?

00:46:07.260 I wonder

00:46:08.120 if the people

00:46:08.980 there were

00:46:09.680 substantially less

00:46:11.020 happy than

00:46:13.080 somebody who

00:46:13.740 was just,

00:46:14.180 let's say,

00:46:14.560 low-income

00:46:15.200 living somewhere

00:46:16.480 else.

00:46:17.800 I don't know.

00:46:19.980 There's something

00:46:20.800 about this story

00:46:21.580 that isn't tracking

00:46:22.460 with me,

00:46:23.000 which is,

00:46:24.540 why would so

00:46:25.400 many people

00:46:25.900 do it

00:46:26.460 if it were

00:46:27.620 not their

00:46:28.000 best option?

00:46:30.860 I mean,

00:46:31.940 isn't their 0.93

00:46:32.900 other option

00:46:33.620 worse?

00:46:35.680 You're saying

00:46:36.300 they're doing it

00:46:36.780 for the pay

00:46:37.300 because there's

00:46:38.480 nothing else

00:46:38.960 that would get

00:46:39.320 paid.

00:46:39.760 Well,

00:46:39.920 that's my point.

00:46:41.040 If the other

00:46:41.720 option is you

00:46:42.320 don't get money,

00:46:43.680 then they think

00:46:44.680 it's their best

00:46:45.240 option,

00:46:45.740 even if it's

00:46:46.340 unhealthy.

00:46:46.700 So I don't

00:46:48.880 know how to

00:46:49.540 think of

00:46:51.360 something where

00:46:51.840 it's their

00:46:52.100 best option,

00:46:52.720 but here's

00:46:53.220 the point I'm

00:46:53.620 going to.

00:46:54.520 Everything that

00:46:55.260 they're doing,

00:46:56.980 did you ever

00:46:57.440 see like a

00:46:58.820 video of

00:46:59.860 all the,

00:47:00.700 it's like just

00:47:01.280 thousands of

00:47:02.300 people like

00:47:02.840 milling around

00:47:03.540 in this big

00:47:04.140 dirty hole?

00:47:05.540 Have you ever

00:47:06.120 just tracked

00:47:06.960 any one of

00:47:07.620 them?

00:47:08.580 Just look at

00:47:09.100 one of them.

00:47:10.400 They're not

00:47:10.740 doing anything.

00:47:12.580 Most of them

00:47:13.300 are standing

00:47:13.740 there with a

00:47:14.220 shovel and

00:47:15.480 looking at

00:47:15.940 somebody else.

00:47:17.340 It's like

00:47:17.760 99 out of

00:47:18.940 100 of them

00:47:19.740 are doing

00:47:20.040 absolutely

00:47:20.500 nothing.

00:47:21.060 They're just

00:47:21.360 milling around.

00:47:22.420 I don't know

00:47:22.860 why.

00:47:23.960 But is this

00:47:25.360 not the

00:47:25.740 perfect situation

00:47:26.620 for robots?

00:47:28.380 Why are there

00:47:29.080 any humans in

00:47:29.820 those holes in

00:47:30.380 the first place?

00:47:31.760 What is it that

00:47:32.580 the human can

00:47:33.180 do that the

00:47:33.660 robot can't

00:47:34.300 do?

00:47:37.520 Sarah says,

00:47:38.560 in all caps,

00:47:39.300 Scott thought

00:47:39.880 COVID would

00:47:40.540 collapse

00:47:40.940 civilization,

00:47:42.080 LOL.

00:47:43.220 Sarah, you

00:47:43.720 know that

00:47:44.000 never happened,

00:47:44.660 right?

00:47:45.240 Are you having

00:47:45.700 an episode?

00:47:47.420 Sarah, you

00:47:48.200 okay?

00:47:49.460 You should

00:47:50.040 see somebody

00:47:50.540 about that.

00:47:51.240 You have

00:47:51.700 some kind

00:47:52.220 of disease

00:47:52.660 that's making

00:47:53.300 you shout

00:47:54.060 in all caps

00:47:54.900 things which

00:47:55.960 only you

00:47:56.480 remember but

00:47:57.140 never happened.

00:47:59.200 That's something

00:47:59.900 you should look

00:48:00.400 into.

00:48:01.860 Yeah.

00:48:02.260 If you start

00:48:02.840 shouting in all

00:48:03.720 caps a memory

00:48:05.260 of something

00:48:05.860 that didn't

00:48:06.400 happen to

00:48:08.260 the person

00:48:08.800 who knows

00:48:09.200 it didn't

00:48:09.540 happen,

00:48:10.560 there's something

00:48:11.340 wrong.

00:48:11.720 you need

00:48:12.240 to seek

00:48:12.580 help.

00:48:13.380 So go

00:48:14.220 take care

00:48:14.960 of that

00:48:15.160 right away.

00:48:18.060 All right.

00:48:18.680 Well, anyway,

00:48:19.500 I think we

00:48:20.080 could mine

00:48:21.460 rare earth

00:48:22.000 minerals if

00:48:22.620 we used

00:48:23.100 machines to

00:48:24.060 do it.

00:48:24.380 I think if

00:48:27.120 we used

00:48:27.480 machines we

00:48:29.120 could do it

00:48:29.560 even in the

00:48:30.080 U.S.

00:48:30.440 safely, I

00:48:31.660 think.

00:48:33.220 All right.

00:48:35.660 Were you

00:48:36.280 expecting, when

00:48:37.480 the Ukraine

00:48:38.060 war kicked

00:48:38.680 off,

00:48:39.060 weren't you

00:48:39.340 expecting the

00:48:39.960 Russians to

00:48:40.520 use their

00:48:40.980 advanced cyber

00:48:42.540 capabilities to

00:48:44.540 take down all

00:48:46.260 the networks in

00:48:47.100 Ukraine?

00:48:48.300 And then it

00:48:48.860 sort of didn't

00:48:49.400 happen.

00:48:50.580 They had a few

00:48:51.300 easy wins that

00:48:52.280 apparently were

00:48:53.240 not lasting.

00:48:55.980 And here's

00:48:57.780 the, I guess,

00:48:59.040 the takeaway

00:48:59.420 from this.

00:49:01.340 Turns out it's

00:49:02.140 really hard to

00:49:02.760 conduct a

00:49:03.420 cyber attack.

00:49:06.220 That's the

00:49:06.880 takeaway.

00:49:07.920 Well, it turns

00:49:08.520 out it's really

00:49:08.980 hard.

00:49:10.540 So Russia tried 0.52

00:49:11.740 as much as

00:49:12.920 they could, but

00:49:13.520 well, it turns

00:49:14.320 out it's hard.

00:49:16.000 Couldn't pull

00:49:16.680 it off.

00:49:17.520 Did we

00:49:19.940 miscalculate

00:49:22.300 everything about

00:49:23.300 Russia? 0.61

00:49:25.480 Did Russia

00:49:26.360 actually have a

00:49:27.360 paper military

00:49:28.200 and a paper

00:49:29.000 cyber ability?

00:49:30.700 Because you

00:49:31.040 know what else

00:49:31.420 we overestimated?

00:49:33.180 Do you remember

00:49:33.580 when we said

00:49:34.200 Russia interfered

00:49:35.280 with the 2016

00:49:36.140 elections?

00:49:37.580 And then we

00:49:37.980 looked into their

00:49:38.640 valuable memes

00:49:39.720 from their troll

00:49:40.400 farm, and they

00:49:41.900 spent $100,000

00:49:42.800 on some memes

00:49:43.660 that weren't

00:49:44.020 even all in the

00:49:44.800 same direction?

00:49:46.280 Some of them

00:49:46.900 were pro-Hillary,

00:49:48.060 some were pro-Trump.

00:49:50.820 And then you

00:49:51.540 saw the quality

00:49:52.160 of the memes

00:49:52.620 that looked like

00:49:53.100 they were made

00:49:53.380 by high school

00:49:53.940 kids with no

00:49:55.380 persuasive

00:49:56.300 anything.

00:49:57.060 So we know

00:49:59.060 Russia can't 0.99

00:50:00.920 do memes.

00:50:02.620 They can't

00:50:03.020 influence an

00:50:03.620 election, even

00:50:04.240 if they tried.

00:50:06.320 They can't do

00:50:07.220 cyber attacks

00:50:07.900 too well, and

00:50:09.840 their military is

00:50:10.740 kind of lame.

00:50:11.260 So maybe we're

00:50:15.060 wrong about

00:50:15.520 everything.

00:50:16.980 You ever think

00:50:17.460 about it?

00:50:18.300 Maybe just

00:50:18.760 everything's wrong.

00:50:19.780 And we're no

00:50:20.400 closer to nuclear

00:50:21.380 war.

00:50:22.680 Yeah.

00:50:23.180 Now, in my

00:50:23.640 opinion, we're not

00:50:24.580 closer to nuclear

00:50:25.420 war.

00:50:26.040 Not even a little

00:50:26.680 bit.

00:50:27.200 Because nobody

00:50:27.760 wants it.

00:50:28.640 The minimum

00:50:29.320 requirement for a

00:50:30.240 nuclear war is

00:50:30.940 that somebody

00:50:31.400 wants it.

00:50:32.800 And we have

00:50:33.260 exactly zero

00:50:34.100 people who want

00:50:36.000 it or are crazy.

00:50:37.320 Nobody.

00:50:38.540 Nobody.

00:50:38.760 And as the

00:50:40.240 Wall Street Journal

00:50:40.860 in an opinion

00:50:41.360 piece said

00:50:42.100 today, I

00:50:44.080 think that's

00:50:44.600 where it was,

00:50:45.600 Putin does

00:50:47.340 have an escape.

00:50:48.260 He has an

00:50:48.840 escape route.

00:50:49.840 If he had no

00:50:50.640 escape route,

00:50:51.960 that'd be

00:50:52.360 different.

00:50:52.960 But he

00:50:53.520 actually can

00:50:54.160 just say,

00:50:54.840 oh, we got

00:50:55.340 what we wanted.

00:50:56.140 We kept

00:50:56.740 Crimea and we

00:50:58.600 maybe kept

00:50:59.700 them from

00:51:00.080 entering NATO

00:51:00.840 or something.

00:51:01.860 So he could

00:51:02.480 definitely

00:51:03.180 negotiate from

00:51:04.080 this point and

00:51:05.400 get something he

00:51:06.220 didn't mind

00:51:06.760 keeping.

00:51:07.800 As long as

00:51:08.600 NATO stayed

00:51:09.200 out of Ukraine.

00:51:11.460 So, yeah,

00:51:12.840 he could just

00:51:13.360 negotiate anytime

00:51:15.200 he wants.

00:51:15.980 Now, there's

00:51:16.460 one theory that

00:51:18.680 I'm not going

00:51:19.180 to endorse,

00:51:20.400 but the idea

00:51:21.280 is that Russia

00:51:22.600 would run out

00:51:23.420 of fighters

00:51:24.760 before Ukraine.

00:51:27.400 Now, the

00:51:28.100 argument goes

00:51:28.920 that even

00:51:29.640 though Russia

00:51:30.120 has more

00:51:30.540 people and

00:51:31.620 would be

00:51:31.980 willing to

00:51:32.480 throw more

00:51:32.960 fodder at it

00:51:33.680 forever,

00:51:34.420 that the

00:51:35.620 Ukrainians are 1.00

00:51:36.180 never going to

00:51:36.680 quit because

00:51:37.660 it's their

00:51:37.980 homeland.

00:51:39.120 So, no

00:51:39.700 matter how

00:51:40.200 few there

00:51:40.940 are left

00:51:41.420 and no

00:51:41.760 matter how

00:51:42.180 irregular the

00:51:43.000 army and

00:51:43.900 no matter if

00:51:44.460 they have to

00:51:44.840 turn it into

00:51:45.380 a guerrilla war,

00:51:47.240 the Ukrainians

00:51:48.060 will keep

00:51:48.400 fighting.

00:51:50.000 I don't know.

00:51:50.700 I'm not sure

00:51:51.160 that's true.

00:51:52.440 But that's a

00:51:53.680 current opinion

00:51:54.740 of somebody.

00:51:57.180 Sarah is

00:51:58.100 yelling in all

00:51:58.760 caps again,

00:51:59.820 something that

00:52:00.500 didn't happen.

00:52:01.720 LOL,

00:52:02.600 Scott thinks

00:52:03.180 Ukraine is

00:52:03.800 winning.

00:52:04.660 Really sort of

00:52:05.520 the opposite of

00:52:06.100 what I just

00:52:06.460 said, Sarah.

00:52:06.920 You can't

00:52:08.020 tell what's

00:52:08.460 happening over

00:52:09.000 there.

00:52:10.020 So, Sarah,

00:52:10.560 you need

00:52:10.940 medical help.

00:52:12.080 I'm going to

00:52:12.660 hide you on

00:52:13.480 this channel so

00:52:14.620 that you'll be

00:52:15.060 yelling at

00:52:15.460 yourself from

00:52:15.960 now on.

00:52:17.120 But that's

00:52:17.960 just a cry for

00:52:18.740 help.

00:52:19.040 I think you

00:52:19.360 need some

00:52:19.740 medical attention

00:52:20.620 here.

00:52:22.760 All right.

00:52:24.000 So, cyber war

00:52:24.860 is hard.

00:52:27.760 Let me ask you

00:52:28.780 if any of you

00:52:29.420 are having this

00:52:30.040 problem.

00:52:30.440 Do you find

00:52:32.140 that it's harder

00:52:32.820 and harder to

00:52:33.540 interact with

00:52:34.240 people who still

00:52:35.020 believe the news

00:52:35.900 is real?

00:52:38.620 Have you had

00:52:39.260 that problem?

00:52:40.660 Every time I

00:52:41.440 talk to somebody

00:52:42.060 who says

00:52:43.040 something, they

00:52:43.880 heard it on

00:52:44.340 the news, and

00:52:45.040 I think,

00:52:45.880 really?

00:52:47.560 You still

00:52:48.340 don't know the

00:52:48.960 news is made

00:52:49.600 up?

00:52:51.040 Because I

00:52:51.680 think people

00:52:52.100 think, people

00:52:53.220 still think that

00:52:54.740 it's only the

00:52:55.320 news from the

00:52:55.920 other side that's

00:52:56.640 made up.

00:52:58.200 No.

00:52:58.640 No, it's all

00:53:01.040 of it.

00:53:01.980 All the news

00:53:02.740 about public

00:53:03.360 figures and

00:53:03.980 politics is made

00:53:04.820 up.

00:53:05.900 Let me say

00:53:06.620 it as clearly

00:53:07.100 as possible.

00:53:08.160 All of the

00:53:08.800 news, all

00:53:09.520 of the news

00:53:10.020 about public

00:53:11.080 figures and

00:53:11.820 politics is

00:53:12.420 made up.

00:53:13.240 And what I

00:53:13.640 mean by made

00:53:14.200 up is, usually

00:53:15.880 in the early

00:53:16.720 stages, the

00:53:17.620 facts are

00:53:18.120 wrong.

00:53:19.260 The source

00:53:19.900 wasn't real.

00:53:21.260 The thing

00:53:21.620 somebody quoted

00:53:22.920 didn't really

00:53:23.480 happen.

00:53:24.620 So in the

00:53:25.020 beginning, stories

00:53:25.740 are just wrong

00:53:26.700 on the facts.

00:53:27.680 But they are

00:53:28.340 always wrong

00:53:28.940 in the context.

00:53:30.780 They're always

00:53:31.360 wrong in the

00:53:31.900 context.

00:53:32.860 Always.

00:53:33.820 There's not a

00:53:34.460 single story.

00:53:35.520 I've never

00:53:36.020 met anybody

00:53:36.700 involved with

00:53:37.280 a story who

00:53:38.740 is willing to

00:53:39.360 say, yeah,

00:53:39.760 they got that

00:53:40.740 story right.

00:53:41.640 Never.

00:53:42.660 That's not even

00:53:43.200 a thing.

00:53:44.120 And when I

00:53:44.780 meet people who

00:53:45.380 think that the

00:53:45.880 news is still

00:53:46.500 sometimes correct,

00:53:48.240 I don't know

00:53:48.840 what to do with

00:53:49.380 it anymore.

00:53:50.600 Because I used

00:53:51.280 to argue, well,

00:53:52.000 if you'd read

00:53:52.660 this source or

00:53:53.500 checked this

00:53:54.020 source, but I

00:53:54.860 know that doesn't

00:53:55.440 make any

00:53:55.820 difference.

00:53:57.180 So here's what

00:53:57.980 I've decided on,

00:54:00.060 and it seems

00:54:01.060 to disarm

00:54:01.700 people.

00:54:03.100 I show

00:54:03.780 empathy for

00:54:04.600 them being

00:54:05.240 victimized by

00:54:07.000 the news.

00:54:08.560 I just say,

00:54:09.480 I'm sorry the

00:54:10.080 news did this

00:54:10.700 to you.

00:54:12.460 And I'm never

00:54:13.380 going to have a

00:54:13.840 conversation with

00:54:14.520 somebody who

00:54:14.900 thinks the

00:54:15.340 news is telling

00:54:15.960 them anything

00:54:16.580 useful.

00:54:18.180 That would be

00:54:18.600 the biggest

00:54:18.980 waste of time.

00:54:20.060 You should

00:54:20.340 start your

00:54:20.780 conversation with

00:54:21.540 this.

00:54:22.220 Do you believe

00:54:22.620 the news is

00:54:23.280 real?

00:54:24.700 If they say

00:54:25.260 yes, or they

00:54:26.220 say, well, if

00:54:27.700 you do your

00:54:28.120 own research,

00:54:28.820 or you watch

00:54:30.320 the wrong

00:54:30.540 things, just

00:54:31.360 walk away.

00:54:33.280 As long as

00:54:34.060 somebody thinks

00:54:34.540 that the news

00:54:35.020 on one side

00:54:35.860 is real and

00:54:37.020 the other

00:54:37.340 side is not

00:54:38.080 real, you

00:54:39.620 can't have a

00:54:40.040 conversation with

00:54:40.740 that person.

00:54:41.940 The minimum

00:54:42.720 requirement for

00:54:43.580 an honest

00:54:43.940 conversation is

00:54:44.740 both sides of

00:54:46.700 the news are

00:54:47.940 presenting narrative,

00:54:49.320 which is not

00:54:50.280 real.

00:54:51.160 It's just a

00:54:51.660 narrative.

00:54:54.940 Yeah.

00:54:55.620 I treat them

00:54:56.720 as somebody

00:54:57.840 who's been

00:54:58.220 victimized by

00:54:59.220 the press.

00:55:02.860 Yeah, as

00:55:03.240 Mark Twain

00:55:03.740 said, if you

00:55:04.340 don't read the

00:55:04.820 newspaper, you're

00:55:05.540 uninformed.

00:55:06.500 If you do

00:55:06.880 read it, you're

00:55:07.480 misinformed.

00:55:09.460 Exactly.

00:55:10.520 I hate when I

00:55:11.200 just recreate

00:55:11.920 what Mark

00:55:14.040 Twain figured

00:55:14.600 out a hundred

00:55:15.200 years ago.

00:55:20.420 Democrats

00:55:20.940 voted against

00:55:21.760 the Parents

00:55:22.320 Right Bill.

00:55:22.760 Yeah.

00:55:28.220 All right.

00:55:31.440 Reframe

00:55:32.000 to reframe.

00:55:35.860 Vivek is Dave

00:55:36.840 Chappelle

00:55:37.180 showing up

00:55:37.760 unannounced.

00:55:39.640 That's funny.

00:55:42.220 Have I ever

00:55:43.060 gotten the Mark

00:55:43.620 Twain award?

00:55:44.340 No, that's for

00:55:45.080 much higher

00:55:47.100 profile

00:55:47.660 people.

00:55:49.960 I'm not high

00:55:50.740 enough profile to

00:55:51.520 win an award

00:55:51.960 like that.

00:55:52.400 Oscar Wilde

00:55:59.680 says the

00:56:00.080 real news

00:56:00.660 is in a

00:56:01.100 year-old

00:56:01.520 paper.

00:56:02.080 Yeah, one

00:56:02.460 to five

00:56:02.800 years is how

00:56:03.600 long it

00:56:03.860 takes the

00:56:04.180 news to

00:56:05.200 come out.

00:56:11.620 Mexican

00:56:12.020 cartels.

00:56:13.220 I'm not

00:56:13.800 sure that the

00:56:14.340 TikTok CEO

00:56:15.580 brought Mexican

00:56:16.580 cartels with

00:56:17.280 him.

00:56:17.400 Have you ever

00:56:20.260 won a Pulitzer?

00:56:20.900 No, I don't

00:56:21.480 want a Pulitzer.

00:56:22.460 My God.

00:56:23.980 The Pulitzer is

00:56:24.660 a completely

00:56:25.360 discredited

00:56:26.140 award.

00:56:28.940 How many

00:56:29.640 Pulitzers did 1.00

00:56:30.480 the New York

00:56:31.940 Times get for

00:56:32.580 the fake news

00:56:33.420 about Russia

00:56:34.860 collusion?

00:56:36.120 No, a Pulitzer

00:56:37.060 is a sign that

00:56:39.580 you're a

00:56:41.220 political operative

00:56:42.100 at this point.

00:56:43.220 Unless it's

00:56:43.920 non-fiction.

00:56:45.040 Unless it's

00:56:45.580 fiction.

00:56:47.900 No, I would

00:56:48.860 not want a

00:56:49.360 Pulitzer.

00:56:49.740 There was a

00:56:50.100 time when I

00:56:50.580 wanted it.

00:56:50.900 one, because

00:56:51.780 I thought

00:56:52.100 that would

00:56:52.360 be a good

00:56:52.940 award to

00:56:53.360 have in

00:56:53.740 my line

00:56:54.280 of work.

00:56:55.040 But at

00:56:55.380 the moment,

00:56:55.840 I would

00:56:56.040 just be

00:56:56.320 embarrassed if

00:56:56.940 I had

00:56:57.180 one.

00:56:58.260 It would

00:56:58.520 just be

00:56:58.820 kind of

00:56:59.060 embarrassing.

00:57:08.700 Liberty

00:57:09.100 says, we

00:57:09.740 could not

00:57:10.140 match Russia

00:57:10.780 in a

00:57:11.060 continental

00:57:11.460 war.

00:57:12.160 Are you

00:57:12.520 Russian?

00:57:13.700 You sound

00:57:14.320 like a

00:57:14.640 Russian agent.

00:57:16.600 Because I

00:57:16.880 don't think

00:57:17.160 anybody believes

00:57:18.000 what you

00:57:18.300 just said.

00:57:18.740 Russian forces

00:57:22.480 apparently would

00:57:23.280 last about

00:57:23.800 25 minutes if

00:57:24.860 they attacked

00:57:25.360 the United

00:57:25.700 States, unless

00:57:26.580 they used

00:57:26.980 nukes.

00:57:28.020 I don't

00:57:28.340 even know if

00:57:28.700 their nukes

00:57:29.120 work.

00:57:31.200 If I ever

00:57:31.880 saw a man

00:57:32.460 who wanted a

00:57:33.100 Pulitzer, it's

00:57:33.820 Scott Adams,

00:57:34.620 says a mind

00:57:35.520 reader.

00:57:37.200 If I don't

00:57:37.860 win, it's not

00:57:38.440 worth winning.

00:57:39.040 The mind

00:57:39.380 readers are

00:57:39.820 out.

00:57:40.680 I'm getting

00:57:41.220 mind read quite

00:57:42.020 a bit.

00:57:42.280 if I can't

00:57:44.280 win, no,

00:57:45.660 you don't

00:57:45.940 win unless

00:57:46.420 you apply.

00:57:48.140 Did you

00:57:48.400 know that?

00:57:49.180 You can't

00:57:49.780 win a

00:57:50.060 Pulitzer unless

00:57:52.100 you submit

00:57:52.740 for it.

00:57:53.940 If I were

00:57:54.680 trying to

00:57:55.180 win, I

00:57:55.880 would be

00:57:56.280 submitting.

00:57:57.680 But you

00:57:58.000 don't see me

00:57:58.480 doing that.

00:57:59.480 I do not

00:57:59.960 submit my

00:58:00.480 work for

00:58:00.840 the Pulitzer.

00:58:05.940 Oh, you're

00:58:09.220 joking?

00:58:09.720 Okay.

00:58:12.280 You're

00:58:14.380 forgetting

00:58:14.700 their allies.

00:58:16.300 No, I'm

00:58:16.680 not.

00:58:20.100 All right.

00:58:22.000 Yeah, I

00:58:22.400 wanted a

00:58:23.180 Pulitzer until

00:58:23.800 I found out

00:58:24.420 how they

00:58:24.740 were awarded.

00:58:25.920 But more,

00:58:26.780 they're awarded

00:58:27.200 just a small

00:58:28.620 group of

00:58:29.120 people.

00:58:29.580 It's just

00:58:29.940 their opinion.

00:58:31.440 So it

00:58:31.760 doesn't have

00:58:32.160 any real

00:58:33.580 weight.

00:58:34.620 If five

00:58:35.260 people decide

00:58:35.960 that you

00:58:36.260 should get a

00:58:36.640 Pulitzer,

00:58:37.720 who are

00:58:38.020 those five

00:58:38.500 people?

00:58:40.380 Oh, I

00:58:41.120 won the

00:58:41.580 prestigious

00:58:42.540 random

00:58:43.260 five

00:58:43.680 people

00:58:44.040 award.

00:58:47.160 What's

00:58:47.680 that?

00:58:48.800 Five

00:58:49.240 randomly

00:58:49.680 chosen

00:58:50.200 judges for

00:58:51.440 your

00:58:51.620 category.

00:58:52.040 And they

00:58:53.180 change the

00:58:53.680 judges around

00:58:54.540 every year,

00:58:55.260 I think.

00:59:01.400 Oh, Trump

00:59:02.200 gave out

00:59:02.580 fake news

00:59:03.080 awards.

00:59:05.800 Daily Wire

00:59:06.420 is increasingly

00:59:07.180 sneaky

00:59:08.360 anti-Trump.

00:59:09.260 Scott is not

00:59:09.920 sneaky.

00:59:11.580 okay.

00:59:16.660 Oh, I

00:59:20.360 realized that

00:59:21.260 I should

00:59:22.740 have turned

00:59:23.060 my iPad

00:59:23.800 upside down.

00:59:25.120 So there's

00:59:25.560 a step

00:59:26.140 that, remember

00:59:27.020 I told you

00:59:27.480 that every

00:59:27.960 step you

00:59:28.440 add to

00:59:28.820 the process

00:59:29.440 increases

00:59:30.540 the rate,

00:59:31.260 the chances

00:59:31.760 of failure

00:59:32.240 by like

00:59:32.700 25%.

00:59:33.900 Any little

00:59:35.740 change

00:59:36.320 increases

00:59:37.320 your risk

00:59:37.840 of getting

00:59:38.140 wrong.

00:59:38.360 And one

00:59:38.980 of the

00:59:39.200 things I

00:59:39.520 had to

00:59:39.780 add was

00:59:40.820 I have

00:59:41.020 to flip

00:59:41.420 the iPad

00:59:42.020 over right

00:59:43.380 before I

00:59:43.940 go live.

00:59:45.480 And when

00:59:46.880 Locals didn't

00:59:47.580 work, and I

00:59:49.340 had to redo

00:59:50.140 it and re-up

00:59:51.100 the app and

00:59:51.600 stuff, I

00:59:52.480 lost that part

00:59:53.140 of the process.

00:59:54.220 So the

00:59:55.880 camera is up

00:59:56.600 here, whereas

00:59:58.160 it's supposed to

00:59:58.780 be down in

00:59:59.660 this corner,

01:00:00.580 down here.

01:00:01.260 and then I

01:00:02.560 would be

01:00:02.820 looking here

01:00:03.840 to see both

01:00:04.740 of the

01:00:05.000 cameras in

01:00:05.680 the same

01:00:05.940 place.

01:00:13.760 Garden flag,

01:00:14.780 yeah, I

01:00:15.300 don't know

01:00:15.540 what that

01:00:15.820 is.

01:00:20.300 Mark Twain

01:00:21.020 never won

01:00:21.520 the Mark

01:00:21.840 Twain

01:00:22.060 award.

01:00:24.420 That's

01:00:24.880 funny.

01:00:25.160 Could you

01:00:31.400 inform your

01:00:32.100 audience about

01:00:33.040 Biden's

01:00:33.600 bringing

01:00:33.880 TikTok back

01:00:34.880 or at

01:00:35.660 least tell

01:00:35.940 me I'm

01:00:36.280 wrong?

01:00:39.520 Well, I

01:00:40.360 don't know

01:00:40.540 what you're

01:00:40.760 talking about

01:00:41.380 because nobody

01:00:43.020 brought TikTok

01:00:43.640 back.

01:00:44.260 It's always

01:00:44.520 been here.

01:00:44.920 Do you

01:00:50.840 have a

01:00:51.320 clearer view

01:00:51.960 of when

01:00:52.240 Scott is

01:00:52.580 looking at

01:00:53.000 which stream?

01:00:53.940 Can you

01:00:54.540 tell that I'm

01:00:55.060 looking at

01:00:55.460 the locals

01:00:56.100 comments right

01:00:56.860 now?

01:00:58.060 This is what

01:00:58.760 my eyes look

01:00:59.380 like when I'm

01:00:59.880 looking at the

01:01:00.380 locals comments.

01:01:01.940 This is my

01:01:02.800 eyes when I'm

01:01:03.380 looking at the

01:01:03.960 YouTube comments.

01:01:07.060 All right,

01:01:07.600 that's all I

01:01:07.960 got for today.

01:01:09.340 And YouTube,

01:01:09.980 I'm going to

01:01:10.260 say see you

01:01:11.320 later.

01:01:11.640 Thanks for

01:01:11.980 joining.

01:01:13.720 you tomorrow.

01:01:14.060 I'll talk to

01:01:15.140 you tomorrow.
