Transcript

00:00:00.000 Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do.
00:00:04.460 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.
00:00:10.420 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams because there's coffee and there's me.
00:00:14.980 And if you'd like your experience to go up to the levels that nobody's ever heard of,
00:00:19.400 everybody's talking about how great it would be if you did,
00:00:23.000 all you need is a copper mug or a glass of tank or chalice of dye
00:00:26.120 and a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:30.000 Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:32.160 I like coffee.
00:00:33.480 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopey and the other day
00:00:36.960 that makes everything better.
00:00:38.240 It's called the Sematary Sip.
00:00:41.200 Go.
00:00:46.360 Ah.
00:00:47.400 Ah.
00:00:49.540 There's no comment here.
00:00:50.960 Let me go back there.
00:00:52.880 It was at the mid-sip when I saw it.
00:00:55.700 Something about Vivek.
00:01:00.000 Yeah, I can't find it now.
00:01:03.760 There we go.
00:01:04.600 Well, let's talk about all the news, shall we?
00:01:07.560 Let's talk.
00:01:09.200 So I saw a headline without reading the story,
00:01:13.640 but have you noticed that the headline is as good as the story?
00:01:18.380 Yeah.
00:01:18.580 Usually the headline tells you everything you need to know.
00:01:21.140 The headline was that fracking could lead to big advances in geothermal power.
00:01:26.640 And so the idea is that the whole point of fracking is they drill a hole and they shoot water down there.
00:01:36.740 And when they shoot the water down there, somehow they get a better, bigger hole or something.
00:01:43.000 So they use it for producing oil and gas, I guess.
00:01:47.320 But they could maybe use it to get deep into the earth and get some energy out of the heat from the earth.
00:01:57.560 I have long been saying that the greatest technology the earth needs is holes.
00:02:01.960 Does anybody remember me saying that?
00:02:05.480 That if we could ever learn to build really good holes, we would solve basically everything.
00:02:11.280 Because if you could build big holes, like Elon Musk's boring company that just makes tunnels,
00:02:20.180 that's the beginning.
00:02:20.940 But fracking and boring might open up the interior of the planet for unlimited energy.
00:02:30.260 Because if you could inexpensively dig a really deep hole any time you wanted, free energy.
00:02:37.560 You know, after the expense of creating it, it's free.
00:02:41.520 So, and then I also thought that farming inevitably has to go underground.
00:02:47.820 Or at least indoors.
00:02:50.940 Because you want your farming to have no pests and no problems of nature.
00:02:58.500 So I think inevitably that's, you know, holes.
00:03:01.140 Holes is where the future is.
00:03:03.300 Space and holes.
00:03:06.320 I don't believe I talked about that Jason L. Dean song in the detail that I wanted to.
00:03:11.620 So, you know, there's a big controversy.
00:03:13.260 Country star Jason L. Dean has this small town song where he's saying that there are riots
00:03:20.560 and the urban unrest, if it came to a small town, those small towners would take care of it.
00:03:27.600 Meaning that they would at least use the threat of violence to stop people from doing bad things.
00:03:33.760 Now, the first thing I would say about it is having now listened to the entire song.
00:03:38.340 The first time I mentioned it, I had not heard it.
00:03:40.260 It's actually a really good song.
00:03:43.940 So if I could just recommend it on a purely musical basis, really good.
00:03:50.500 Really good.
00:03:51.140 I was actually surprised.
00:03:52.540 Because country music is not my preferred genre.
00:03:55.900 So when something in that genre, you know, totally lights me up, it's pretty notable.
00:04:02.480 If you can get somebody from the wrong genre to appreciate what you're doing, that's some good stuff.
00:04:10.180 So talent-wise, A+.
00:04:12.140 But the controversy is that some people are listening to a song and they think it's racist and promoting lynching.
00:04:22.920 Other people listen to the same song, and it's not so much the lyrics as the video, the video imagery.
00:04:30.420 And they look at the imagery and they say, where is any of that?
00:04:35.500 I don't see any video that's highlighting any racial group.
00:04:41.300 In fact, it looked like it was shot to decrease that perception.
00:04:45.800 You know, there's a lot of vague images and you can't really tell who it is.
00:04:49.680 It looked to me intentional that they didn't want it to be about race.
00:04:53.580 It was about behavior.
00:04:55.980 But, and then what about the question of lynching?
00:05:00.340 Well, that's not there either.
00:05:02.280 There's just this suggestion that if violence came to a small town,
00:05:07.080 the small town people would react in some forceful way to stop it.
00:05:11.500 Nothing about lynching.
00:05:12.840 All right, so now I've told you that I saw zero imagery, zero words to suggest either racism or lynching.
00:05:27.160 Now let me tell you what I felt when I heard the song.
00:05:30.660 Totally racist, and it looks like it's encouraging lynching.
00:05:36.120 Are those two things out of whack?
00:05:38.120 There's no evidence in the song.
00:05:41.200 The song does not have racist imagery.
00:05:44.960 It does not have racist words.
00:05:47.260 It doesn't.
00:05:48.200 It's just not there.
00:05:49.720 But I felt it.
00:05:50.900 Why did I feel it?
00:05:52.460 Why did I feel it so strongly?
00:05:56.240 So much so that I had to go back and look at it a second time
00:05:59.880 to look for those things that triggered me, and guess what?
00:06:04.080 There weren't any.
00:06:04.920 There was nothing there that would have given me the impression that I got.
00:06:10.960 So let me ask you this.
00:06:13.340 I legitimately felt the same thing that the Democrats, presumably,
00:06:17.220 and the people on the left are criticizing.
00:06:19.620 I felt it too.
00:06:21.080 But it wasn't there.
00:06:23.120 I mean, I can guarantee you it's not there.
00:06:25.260 I looked very closely, and it wasn't there.
00:06:29.440 So who do you blame?
00:06:30.560 Do you blame the artist for making a song about, you know,
00:06:36.300 the point the artist wanted to make about violence in small towns?
00:06:39.680 Was that a problem?
00:06:42.000 I'm going to say no.
00:06:43.800 I'm going to say you have to blame.
00:06:46.740 Well, do you blame me?
00:06:49.820 Do you blame the people who interpreted it the same way I did
00:06:53.500 the first time I heard it?
00:06:55.340 No, I think you blame the media.
00:06:56.820 The media has primed us all that violence equals black.
00:07:05.840 Did I come up with that on my own?
00:07:09.240 No.
00:07:10.020 I turn on the TV, and there's violence.
00:07:12.420 And then I look at the statistics,
00:07:14.620 and it seems to be highly correlated with news reports
00:07:17.700 about, you know, BLM or urban areas where there's some violence.
00:07:21.660 And without, you know, any statement of what's true
00:07:26.940 or what's not true statistically, that's not my point.
00:07:31.540 My point is that I'm inundated with things that conflate
00:07:35.980 black people and violence in the news.
00:07:40.320 It's all over the place.
00:07:41.880 So when I see something that sees this vague urban violence,
00:07:46.300 what do you think of when you think of urban violence?
00:07:49.580 We've all been so triggered into seeing it
00:07:51.920 that you just assume you're seeing something
00:07:54.300 you're not actually seeing.
00:07:56.400 So I think this, the Jason L. Dean thing is,
00:08:00.440 in some ways, has nothing to do with racism whatsoever.
00:08:04.780 But it has everything to do with explaining
00:08:07.740 your current situation.
00:08:10.440 It explains how you've been brainwashed,
00:08:12.760 because you can't avoid it.
00:08:13.960 When I say you, this is no insult to you,
00:08:16.880 not specifically, I'm saying that you and I
00:08:20.020 and everybody, we're getting the same forces
00:08:22.740 from the outside, and they've primed us
00:08:25.400 to see something that wasn't there.
00:08:27.600 And it's really freaky to see something clearly
00:08:30.640 that you can confirm doesn't exist.
00:08:35.300 It's quite shocking.
00:08:37.580 So I had that experience, but I recommend the song.
00:08:43.440 It's just good music, and I do not think
00:08:47.400 that the creator of the song should have any blowback.
00:08:51.480 But I get it.
00:08:52.440 I mean, I understand how it happened.
00:08:53.780 It just wasn't his fault.
00:08:55.500 Definitely the media.
00:08:57.400 All right.
00:09:02.680 Let's see.
00:09:03.360 I've said this before, but this is the most useful thing
00:09:07.960 you'll hear.
00:09:08.940 It's good to reinforce it.
00:09:10.880 If you use Twitter, you have to understand
00:09:14.380 that a fairly shocking percentage of the trolls on Twitter
00:09:18.780 are literally actually drunk, or inebriated in some way.
00:09:24.420 And until you understand that, it's a very, like,
00:09:28.400 maddening place, because you'll end up doing things like,
00:09:31.180 why can't you understand my point?
00:09:33.880 Are you intentionally missing my point?
00:09:37.160 And, you know, you just go crazy
00:09:39.400 because of these triggering tweets.
00:09:41.560 But the moment you tell yourself they're probably drunk,
00:09:45.820 it all goes away.
00:09:47.860 All of your, like, I don't know, stress or anxiety
00:09:51.780 about somebody tweeting evil things at you,
00:09:54.320 it just completely goes away when you tell yourself
00:09:56.480 they're probably drunk.
00:09:58.260 Try it.
00:09:58.740 It's just a reframe for your mental health.
00:10:01.520 Right?
00:10:01.920 Now, with reframes in general,
00:10:04.280 and here's something you'll hear a lot from me,
00:10:06.540 a reframe doesn't have to be accurate.
00:10:09.360 Right?
00:10:09.660 It doesn't have to be true.
00:10:11.540 It doesn't have to be true some of the time or all the time.
00:10:14.540 It doesn't have to have any semblance of reality to it.
00:10:18.340 A reframe works because it works.
00:10:22.100 You just try it, and you see what happens.
00:10:24.520 It's free.
00:10:25.020 So just try telling yourself they're probably drunk
00:10:28.280 and watch what happens.
00:10:30.080 It just changes your experience totally.
00:10:33.040 Right?
00:10:34.520 Yeah, and I also wonder
00:10:36.560 how many of the celebrities that you think
00:10:39.540 just have opinions you don't like
00:10:41.160 are literally drunks.
00:10:42.680 When you see a Ron Perlman,
00:10:46.840 you know, his angry video tweets,
00:10:50.060 do you think he's always sober?
00:10:54.700 I don't know.
00:10:56.080 But he looks like an angry drunk to me.
00:10:58.580 So if you tell yourself Ron Perlman is an angry drunk,
00:11:02.600 even if he isn't,
00:11:03.900 I have no evidence one way or the other,
00:11:06.220 it completely explains how he's acting.
00:11:09.700 Look at Keith Olbermann.
00:11:13.100 Is he drunk when he does these screeds?
00:11:15.480 Well, I doubt he's drunk all of the time.
00:11:20.000 I'm sure he's not always drunk.
00:11:22.060 But does he look like he might be drunk when he does them?
00:11:25.180 And the answer is yes.
00:11:26.580 Yes, he does.
00:11:27.600 Which doesn't mean he's drunk.
00:11:29.900 I want to make a clear distinction
00:11:31.800 between people who act drunk
00:11:34.420 and people who are.
00:11:36.120 I can't tell if they are,
00:11:37.760 but you can tell if they act drunk.
00:11:39.540 And Rob Reiner was the next one I was going to bring up.
00:11:42.140 You don't think Rob Reiner
00:11:43.260 has a little wine with dinner?
00:11:46.820 I'm just wondering.
00:11:48.540 Rob Reiner.
00:11:49.640 Any chance at all he has a drink of wine with dinner?
00:11:53.080 Maybe.
00:11:53.400 Do you think he does any tweeting
00:11:55.580 after a couple of glasses of wine?
00:11:57.780 Ever?
00:11:58.920 Even once?
00:12:00.600 I don't know.
00:12:01.400 Maybe.
00:12:02.820 Maybe.
00:12:04.120 So, but even if you don't know
00:12:07.220 anything about the people who are tweeting
00:12:08.960 that are making you mad,
00:12:10.220 just tell yourself they're drunk
00:12:11.840 and then look at the tweet.
00:12:14.400 And you'll be amazed
00:12:15.420 at how as soon as you tell yourself
00:12:17.600 they might be drunk,
00:12:18.740 the tweet looks like it came from a drunk.
00:12:20.580 It will look like it immediately
00:12:22.680 and make you feel better.
00:12:25.800 All right.
00:12:27.960 I'm loving the folks on Twitter
00:12:31.220 who are finding all the Democrats
00:12:34.360 who had been pushing back
00:12:35.840 on the 2016 election.
00:12:37.840 And if you haven't seen the cringy video
00:12:39.980 of all the very sincere Democrat celebrities
00:12:42.980 saying that the electors,
00:12:45.000 after Trump had been elected,
00:12:48.420 at least by the vote,
00:12:49.820 but the electoral college
00:12:51.400 had not done his thing,
00:12:52.860 that they were actually producing
00:12:54.160 major pieces to say
00:12:56.920 that the electors would be more patriotic
00:12:59.660 if they did not follow
00:13:01.520 this specific path
00:13:04.680 that they had been,
00:13:05.440 let's say,
00:13:07.220 chartered to take by the voters.
00:13:08.720 Now,
00:13:10.920 how do you watch that
00:13:13.420 if you're a Democrat
00:13:15.740 and you're going crazy
00:13:16.880 about January 6th and Trump?
00:13:19.840 Do they just not remember that?
00:13:22.400 I'm actually curious.
00:13:23.520 I don't know.
00:13:24.480 Because I don't think they do.
00:13:27.320 And then the other question is,
00:13:29.300 was either of them illegal?
00:13:31.640 Was it illegal for a bunch of actors
00:13:33.840 to give you their opinion
00:13:35.800 of what electors should do?
00:13:38.720 Not really.
00:13:40.120 It wasn't illegal.
00:13:41.580 It was all transparent.
00:13:42.800 It was free speech.
00:13:44.060 But what did Trump do
00:13:45.080 that was that different?
00:13:47.720 Was he plotting?
00:13:49.880 Is that different?
00:13:51.480 And what if you're plotting
00:13:52.560 to do something
00:13:53.540 that you have an expert
00:13:54.840 tells you is probably legal?
00:13:58.880 Is it an insurrection
00:14:01.000 if the only plans you have
00:14:03.160 have to have some legal backing
00:14:05.520 or you're not willing
00:14:06.360 to consider them?
00:14:07.140 Because I'm pretty sure
00:14:08.780 that Trump didn't do anything
00:14:09.900 without at least one lawyer
00:14:11.460 who may or may not
00:14:13.080 have been right.
00:14:14.500 But I don't think
00:14:15.280 he did anything
00:14:16.140 without anything
00:14:17.840 that was in question
00:14:19.460 without a lawyer saying
00:14:21.300 that there was
00:14:21.840 an argument for it.
00:14:23.480 Doesn't mean it was
00:14:24.220 a good argument,
00:14:25.080 but that's how it works.
00:14:26.300 So to me it looks like
00:14:28.620 in both cases
00:14:30.540 the Democrats
00:14:32.000 and the Republicans
00:14:32.940 were exercising free speech
00:14:34.860 and they were trying
00:14:36.580 to use the law
00:14:37.500 as they understood it.
00:14:39.420 Is it illegal
00:14:40.420 to try to use the law
00:14:41.860 as you understand it?
00:14:43.820 Well, you could end up
00:14:44.940 running afoul of the law
00:14:46.200 that way,
00:14:46.860 but certainly
00:14:47.540 there's no intention.
00:14:49.280 There's no intention
00:14:50.240 of breaking the law.
00:14:51.100 There's an intention
00:14:51.740 of using the law
00:14:52.700 as it exists.
00:14:53.560 you know,
00:14:54.340 maybe in a creative way
00:14:55.460 by using the existing law.
00:14:59.120 So,
00:15:01.040 I don't know.
00:15:02.500 I'd be amazed
00:15:03.480 if Trump goes to jail
00:15:05.560 for any of that stuff.
00:15:06.860 But we're no longer
00:15:08.100 in a world
00:15:08.500 where the actual facts
00:15:10.680 will matter.
00:15:16.660 And it wasn't
00:15:17.780 the real problem
00:15:18.440 in both cases
00:15:19.400 that people believe
00:15:20.700 the media.
00:15:21.440 do you think
00:15:23.400 that you would have had
00:15:24.060 the 2016 people
00:15:25.520 trying to overthrow Trump?
00:15:27.760 Now, remember,
00:15:28.220 their argument
00:15:28.900 for why the electors
00:15:30.280 should pick somebody else,
00:15:31.900 this is the part
00:15:32.720 that's the most mind-blowing.
00:15:34.460 The argument
00:15:35.380 they made
00:15:36.020 in 2016
00:15:36.920 for why the electors
00:15:39.700 should pick somebody
00:15:40.660 other than the one
00:15:41.260 who got the most votes,
00:15:43.420 or at least the most votes
00:15:44.480 in the right places,
00:15:45.700 was
00:15:46.220 that he was
00:15:48.320 obviously unqualified.
00:15:49.800 it's just obvious.
00:15:52.780 I mean,
00:15:53.120 just look at him.
00:15:54.520 Obviously.
00:15:55.580 And that was
00:15:56.140 their whole argument.
00:15:57.240 The argument
00:15:57.720 is that
00:15:58.320 any reasonable person,
00:16:00.840 an elector,
00:16:01.760 could just look at Trump
00:16:02.940 and they could tell
00:16:03.740 that he was not
00:16:04.600 the right person
00:16:06.000 to be a president.
00:16:08.420 Now,
00:16:09.700 how in the world
00:16:11.560 do they still think that?
00:16:14.480 After four years
00:16:16.600 of him being president,
00:16:18.220 what did he do?
00:16:20.140 Now,
00:16:20.460 let's hold aside
00:16:21.900 January 6th itself
00:16:23.060 for a moment.
00:16:24.440 If you take January 6th
00:16:25.920 out of the equation,
00:16:26.720 we'll talk about it separately,
00:16:28.000 what did he do
00:16:28.960 that wasn't
00:16:29.880 an ordinary president thing?
00:16:32.880 Right?
00:16:33.260 The only things
00:16:34.040 were things they made up,
00:16:35.200 like the fine people hoax
00:16:36.500 and the drinking bleak jokes.
00:16:39.120 100% of what they thought
00:16:40.460 about Trump
00:16:40.900 was just made up
00:16:41.700 by their own news people.
00:16:42.800 So much so
00:16:45.080 that they thought
00:16:45.640 he couldn't even be president.
00:16:47.600 But in fact,
00:16:48.760 he was such a reasonable president
00:16:50.580 that his own side,
00:16:52.660 by an overwhelming majority,
00:16:54.020 wants him to try it again.
00:16:56.600 Right?
00:16:57.020 I'm pretty sure
00:16:57.840 if he had done
00:16:58.340 any of the things
00:16:59.300 the Democrats
00:16:59.980 accused him of,
00:17:01.040 you know,
00:17:01.220 the big stuff,
00:17:02.400 that even the Republicans
00:17:03.520 would be looking hard
00:17:04.720 for another choice.
00:17:07.780 So reality is
00:17:09.020 quite weird.
00:17:10.400 But
00:17:10.680 I would also argue
00:17:12.660 that January 6th
00:17:14.940 was because
00:17:15.900 people looking at
00:17:16.780 certain news sources
00:17:17.920 got riled up
00:17:19.380 in a way that
00:17:20.680 people looking at
00:17:21.540 different news sources
00:17:22.540 did not.
00:17:24.620 For example,
00:17:25.940 I was only vaguely aware
00:17:27.680 that there was going to be
00:17:28.460 some kind of protest.
00:17:30.280 It wasn't even
00:17:31.180 on my radar.
00:17:33.000 So whatever I was watching
00:17:34.360 on social media,
00:17:35.720 it did not include
00:17:36.780 calls to show up
00:17:38.560 at the...
00:17:38.660 I mean,
00:17:39.600 I just thought
00:17:40.940 it was another one
00:17:41.680 of those
00:17:42.120 everybody protests
00:17:43.300 everything,
00:17:44.220 that's the end of it.
00:17:47.020 But I was never
00:17:48.020 activated.
00:17:49.420 Like,
00:17:49.740 there was nothing
00:17:50.400 I saw
00:17:51.000 in my news
00:17:52.340 reading
00:17:53.060 that made me
00:17:54.100 want to drive
00:17:54.780 to Washington
00:17:55.820 and try to change
00:17:57.700 everything.
00:17:58.700 So both sides
00:18:00.040 got their opinions
00:18:01.440 from the news sources
00:18:02.500 that they consumed,
00:18:04.320 although there's
00:18:04.940 a cause and effect
00:18:05.740 thing there.
00:18:06.340 You tend to consume
00:18:07.640 the things you know
00:18:08.440 you're going to believe,
00:18:09.400 but there's a two-way
00:18:11.720 effect there.
00:18:14.200 And then we don't know
00:18:15.320 the effect of the FBI,
00:18:18.120 et cetera,
00:18:18.540 on January 6th.
00:18:19.420 That's true.
00:18:21.460 All right.
00:18:23.380 So,
00:18:24.600 I'm going to tell you
00:18:26.180 a story that seems like
00:18:27.160 it's on a different topic
00:18:28.240 and then it's going to
00:18:28.960 weave right back here.
00:18:30.580 Watch this.
00:18:32.220 So according to
00:18:32.900 the New York Times,
00:18:33.720 Google is pitching
00:18:36.400 to the big news entities
00:18:38.600 like the Washington Post,
00:18:39.920 Wall Street Journal,
00:18:40.680 and the New York Times
00:18:41.420 a new tool,
00:18:43.960 an AI tool
00:18:44.780 for making news
00:18:45.700 or reporting the news.
00:18:48.780 Now,
00:18:49.500 is that the funniest story
00:18:50.740 you've ever heard?
00:18:52.560 If you don't know
00:18:53.680 why this is funny,
00:18:54.880 I'll explain it to you.
00:18:58.080 Google hires
00:18:58.980 the smartest people
00:19:00.000 around.
00:19:01.760 Wouldn't you agree?
00:19:02.400 Google hires
00:19:04.460 really smart people.
00:19:06.160 You know,
00:19:06.360 other companies do, too.
00:19:08.620 But Google is sort of famous
00:19:10.280 for hiring
00:19:11.760 extra smart people.
00:19:13.860 So imagine
00:19:14.620 these extra smart people.
00:19:16.620 They build some kind
00:19:17.780 of an AI tool
00:19:18.760 for news
00:19:19.420 and then they took it
00:19:20.800 to the New York Times,
00:19:21.920 the Washington Post,
00:19:23.200 and the Wall Street Journal
00:19:24.360 and asked them
00:19:25.080 if they'd like to use it
00:19:26.080 and maybe buy it.
00:19:29.180 Do you see anything
00:19:29.960 wrong with this story?
00:19:30.720 Do you see anything
00:19:30.780 the smartest people
00:19:33.400 in the world
00:19:33.820 who work at Google
00:19:34.740 were unaware
00:19:36.180 that these are not
00:19:37.780 real news entities
00:19:39.000 in the case of two of them?
00:19:40.800 They're not even
00:19:41.600 real news entities.
00:19:42.780 They think
00:19:43.160 the Washington Post
00:19:43.920 reports news
00:19:44.760 in 2023
00:19:47.420 or the New York Times.
00:19:50.420 They don't know
00:19:51.020 that those are
00:19:51.780 narrative entities.
00:19:54.720 Now,
00:19:54.860 the Washington,
00:19:55.420 I would say
00:19:55.880 the Washington,
00:19:56.760 the Wall Street Journal,
00:19:58.340 the Wall Street Journal
00:19:59.980 was the third one mentioned
00:20:01.080 and I think
00:20:01.880 they're in their own category.
00:20:03.860 I think
00:20:04.160 the Wall Street Journal
00:20:04.920 plays it a little bit
00:20:06.520 closer to the middle
00:20:07.640 of the road
00:20:08.080 but
00:20:08.920 although they're
00:20:11.000 opinion pieces
00:20:11.660 you can make
00:20:13.100 a case
00:20:14.460 that they're
00:20:14.780 opinion pieces
00:20:15.460 lean right.
00:20:17.760 But they're very clear
00:20:18.960 about what's opinion
00:20:19.740 and I always
00:20:21.040 appreciate that.
00:20:22.220 They say
00:20:22.880 opinion,
00:20:24.040 opinion piece
00:20:24.740 so it's really clear.
00:20:25.660 But I would say
00:20:27.920 that the New York Times
00:20:28.780 and the Washington Post
00:20:29.740 are narrative
00:20:31.480 promoting entities
00:20:33.320 that use the news
00:20:35.360 to launder
00:20:35.980 their opinions.
00:20:37.880 So wouldn't AI
00:20:38.840 ruin their entire
00:20:39.920 business model?
00:20:41.400 Their business model
00:20:42.280 is telling their base
00:20:43.100 what they want to hear
00:20:44.120 which is very
00:20:45.420 compatible with
00:20:46.200 what the advertisers
00:20:47.060 want to pay them
00:20:47.980 to be associated with
00:20:49.140 which is very
00:20:50.340 compatible with
00:20:51.160 what Democrats want.
00:20:53.000 None of that
00:20:53.560 has anything to do
00:20:54.300 with the news.
00:20:55.660 So AI
00:20:57.780 is trying to
00:20:58.380 solve a problem
00:20:59.280 that's totally
00:21:00.580 not a problem.
00:21:01.940 In fact
00:21:02.420 it's a feature.
00:21:04.720 The ability
00:21:06.180 to shape the news
00:21:07.600 and manage the news
00:21:08.640 is the main thing
00:21:10.840 that those entities
00:21:11.840 do.
00:21:12.760 They're not telling you
00:21:13.740 full transparent
00:21:15.320 both sides
00:21:15.980 of stories.
00:21:17.340 We know that.
00:21:18.840 There's no
00:21:19.420 debate on that.
00:21:22.320 So
00:21:22.960 I just think
00:21:24.100 it's hilarious
00:21:24.660 some of the smartest
00:21:25.660 technology people
00:21:26.740 in the world
00:21:27.260 because their own
00:21:29.200 news sources
00:21:30.020 lie to them
00:21:30.860 and they believe it
00:21:32.640 they thought that
00:21:34.140 those news sources
00:21:35.040 might benefit
00:21:35.680 from an objective
00:21:37.140 tool for figuring
00:21:38.980 out what the news is.
00:21:41.500 Just think about that.
00:21:43.220 They actually believed
00:21:44.620 that the news is real
00:21:46.760 and developed a tool
00:21:48.200 to help
00:21:48.660 develop this real news
00:21:51.120 a little faster.
00:21:52.700 Or
00:21:52.960 I don't know
00:21:55.160 the details
00:21:55.760 what if
00:21:57.260 the Google tool
00:21:58.680 allowed them
00:21:59.400 to insert
00:21:59.960 the narrative?
00:22:01.440 What if it's
00:22:02.100 the opposite
00:22:02.600 of what I said?
00:22:04.000 What if instead
00:22:04.760 of being AI
00:22:06.200 so it's totally
00:22:06.940 objective
00:22:07.500 about what the news
00:22:08.440 is
00:22:08.660 shows both sides
00:22:09.560 what if it has
00:22:10.700 a feature
00:22:11.160 where you can
00:22:12.120 just push a button
00:22:12.880 and it gets rid
00:22:13.540 of all one side
00:22:14.300 of the argument?
00:22:15.720 How hard
00:22:16.160 would that be?
00:22:17.140 It wouldn't be
00:22:17.580 hard to build it.
00:22:18.300 I mean you could
00:22:19.440 design that
00:22:20.020 quite easily.
00:22:21.120 So it would be
00:22:21.560 the easiest thing
00:22:22.220 in the world.
00:22:22.980 Now how hard
00:22:23.700 would it be
00:22:24.260 for Google
00:22:25.720 to sell a tool
00:22:26.620 to the news industry
00:22:27.660 and then they get
00:22:29.220 addicted to it
00:22:29.960 and they say
00:22:31.020 you know
00:22:31.320 we don't even
00:22:31.880 need reporters
00:22:32.540 anymore.
00:22:33.200 This AI tool
00:22:34.000 is just killing it.
00:22:35.260 Getting all our news
00:22:36.200 organizing it
00:22:37.040 putting it into stories.
00:22:39.200 Do you think
00:22:39.660 that that tool
00:22:40.480 would exist
00:22:41.780 only on the
00:22:42.480 desktops
00:22:43.260 of the people
00:22:44.700 using it
00:22:45.320 or
00:22:46.040 just putting
00:22:46.820 this out there
00:22:47.400 it would actually
00:22:48.900 be an application
00:22:49.720 that ran
00:22:50.200 in the cloud
00:22:50.780 and you were
00:22:52.120 just attached
00:22:52.640 to it
00:22:52.940 and Google
00:22:53.460 had full control
00:22:54.500 of what that AI
00:22:55.900 did and which
00:22:56.820 narratives it surfaced.
00:22:58.880 Which one of those
00:22:59.560 do you think
00:22:59.980 Google was selling?
00:23:01.700 The one who was
00:23:02.500 totally objective
00:23:04.060 or were they
00:23:05.860 selling something
00:23:06.480 where they,
00:23:07.380 Google,
00:23:08.000 could control
00:23:08.760 what AI
00:23:09.520 decided was news
00:23:10.660 you should see?
00:23:12.140 Do you think
00:23:12.560 they would leave
00:23:13.140 themselves no option
00:23:14.240 for managing it
00:23:16.420 on their end
00:23:16.920 secretly?
00:23:18.160 You think
00:23:18.700 there would be
00:23:19.060 no way
00:23:19.460 for them
00:23:19.720 to do that?
00:23:20.900 No way
00:23:21.480 to tweak
00:23:21.900 that code
00:23:22.380 just a little bit?
00:23:23.440 A little bit.
00:23:24.580 It would be
00:23:25.160 the easiest
00:23:25.540 thing in the world.
00:23:27.000 If they could
00:23:28.000 get the biggest
00:23:28.920 entities
00:23:29.460 to accept
00:23:31.060 their tool
00:23:31.800 for news
00:23:32.680 they own
00:23:34.000 the whole world.
00:23:35.700 They would
00:23:36.060 own the world.
00:23:37.320 Now that assumes
00:23:38.060 that the entities
00:23:38.780 used it
00:23:39.820 as it was provided
00:23:40.740 and they would
00:23:41.980 over time
00:23:42.640 if the tool
00:23:43.280 was really
00:23:44.040 really good
00:23:44.740 and saved them
00:23:45.460 money.
00:23:45.720 if they were
00:23:48.460 really really
00:23:49.060 good
00:23:49.440 and it saved
00:23:50.260 them money
00:23:50.720 they would
00:23:51.760 move to
00:23:52.240 the Google
00:23:52.700 tool
00:23:53.080 and then
00:23:53.860 Google
00:23:54.160 would own
00:23:54.740 all the
00:23:55.380 news.
00:23:56.780 They would
00:23:57.360 have any
00:23:58.100 narrative they
00:23:58.780 wanted.
00:23:59.160 They could
00:23:59.360 just pump
00:23:59.780 it through
00:24:00.040 their system
00:24:00.560 and people
00:24:02.120 would think
00:24:02.480 it was
00:24:02.700 the news.
00:24:05.480 So that's
00:24:06.220 pretty weird
00:24:07.080 and scary.
00:24:08.720 All right
00:24:08.980 so how
00:24:10.420 would it
00:24:10.760 cover a
00:24:12.000 story about
00:24:12.540 Trump?
00:24:14.040 How would
00:24:14.760 Google's
00:24:15.380 AI
00:24:15.980 compile a
00:24:17.700 story about
00:24:18.500 Trump?
00:24:19.520 Would it
00:24:19.960 look like
00:24:20.700 let's say
00:24:22.760 you might
00:24:23.300 read in
00:24:23.820 Breitbart?
00:24:25.300 Would it
00:24:26.100 look like
00:24:26.760 something you
00:24:27.260 might read in
00:24:27.700 the Washington
00:24:28.060 Post?
00:24:29.120 Because they're
00:24:29.520 not the same.
00:24:30.680 They don't
00:24:31.000 even look
00:24:31.320 similar.
00:24:33.160 So what
00:24:33.820 would it
00:24:34.080 do?
00:24:34.420 How would
00:24:34.720 it cover
00:24:35.020 the news?
00:24:36.200 Well let's
00:24:36.880 look at the
00:24:37.520 question of
00:24:38.540 the possible
00:24:40.100 indictments
00:24:40.800 against Trump.
00:24:42.760 All right
00:24:42.820 so all of
00:24:44.880 these topics
00:24:45.400 are going to
00:24:45.720 be related
00:24:46.340 so if it
00:24:47.120 seems like
00:24:47.560 I'm changing
00:24:48.140 topics just
00:24:50.280 understand it's
00:24:50.960 all related.
00:24:52.040 We'll tie it
00:24:52.780 all together
00:24:53.180 at the end.
00:24:54.860 So Trump
00:24:56.000 is being
00:24:56.380 indicted
00:24:56.780 the newest
00:24:57.300 set of
00:24:57.640 indictments
00:24:58.100 on three
00:24:58.680 statutes
00:24:59.500 reportedly.
00:25:01.520 So the
00:25:03.120 charges would
00:25:03.880 pertain to
00:25:04.560 these things
00:25:05.720 reportedly.
00:25:06.700 We could be
00:25:07.420 wrong at this
00:25:07.960 point.
00:25:08.740 But something
00:25:09.320 pertaining to
00:25:10.080 deprivation of
00:25:10.980 rights, so
00:25:12.800 you all know
00:25:13.280 exactly what
00:25:13.900 that is,
00:25:14.300 right?
00:25:15.080 We're all
00:25:15.680 aware of
00:25:16.100 exactly what
00:25:16.880 Trump did
00:25:17.580 that would
00:25:18.780 be illegally
00:25:19.680 depriving people
00:25:20.700 of rights,
00:25:21.240 right?
00:25:22.300 I have no
00:25:23.120 idea what
00:25:23.520 that is.
00:25:24.120 No idea.
00:25:24.560 But there's
00:25:25.860 more.
00:25:26.500 It's not
00:25:26.860 just that.
00:25:28.140 It's also
00:25:28.820 conspiracy to
00:25:30.240 commit an
00:25:30.660 offense against
00:25:31.460 or defraud
00:25:32.140 the United
00:25:32.520 States.
00:25:34.720 Now, is
00:25:35.500 that what I
00:25:35.980 said was him
00:25:36.940 getting a
00:25:37.460 legal opinion
00:25:38.120 that what he
00:25:38.720 was doing
00:25:39.100 was legal?
00:25:40.880 So getting a
00:25:41.920 legal opinion
00:25:42.620 and following
00:25:43.560 your legal
00:25:44.100 opinion that
00:25:44.680 what you're
00:25:44.960 doing is
00:25:45.420 legally okay,
00:25:46.200 is that what
00:25:47.400 they're going
00:25:47.700 to say is
00:25:48.440 some kind
00:25:49.720 of conspiracy?
00:25:51.020 Doing what
00:25:51.500 your lawyer
00:25:51.880 says would
00:25:52.420 be legal?
00:25:52.840 It might
00:25:54.600 be.
00:25:55.180 I don't
00:25:55.460 know.
00:25:55.980 Too soon
00:25:56.400 to know.
00:25:57.260 Still fog
00:25:57.820 of war.
00:25:59.920 How about,
00:26:00.700 let's see,
00:26:01.400 what else?
00:26:03.020 And tampering
00:26:03.640 with a witness.
00:26:05.300 Tampering
00:26:05.640 with a witness.
00:26:07.080 Who?
00:26:08.820 Does anybody
00:26:09.580 know what
00:26:10.240 witness we're
00:26:10.860 talking about
00:26:11.460 with the
00:26:11.840 tampering?
00:26:13.300 All right,
00:26:13.640 so at the
00:26:13.980 moment, it
00:26:14.760 makes sense.
00:26:18.200 At the
00:26:18.840 moment, it
00:26:19.260 makes sense
00:26:19.820 that we don't
00:26:20.340 understand the
00:26:21.020 story, right?
00:26:21.640 Because it's
00:26:22.760 new, and it's
00:26:23.620 complicated, and
00:26:24.540 it's legal stuff.
00:26:25.760 So we don't
00:26:26.500 know the story.
00:26:27.560 Let me ask you
00:26:28.120 this.
00:26:29.040 At the end
00:26:29.640 of it all,
00:26:30.780 let's say Trump
00:26:31.600 gets convicted,
00:26:33.780 and let's say
00:26:34.900 he's taken
00:26:37.040 out of the
00:26:37.380 race.
00:26:39.760 All right.
00:26:40.840 Do you
00:26:41.400 think the
00:26:41.780 public would
00:26:42.660 understand the
00:26:43.480 charges?
00:26:45.280 Would they
00:26:45.900 be able to
00:26:46.340 repeat them
00:26:46.860 back and tell
00:26:47.580 you why it
00:26:48.040 was illegal
00:26:48.500 and what
00:26:48.840 happened?
00:26:50.580 No.
00:26:51.640 Do you
00:26:52.120 think that
00:26:52.740 lawyers watching
00:26:53.880 this case,
00:26:54.800 even lawyers
00:26:55.500 who get to
00:26:56.080 hear all of
00:26:56.680 the evidence,
00:26:57.440 let's say the
00:26:58.200 case is public,
00:27:00.520 for example.
00:27:01.600 Do you
00:27:02.060 think if a
00:27:02.600 bunch of
00:27:02.980 lawyers watched
00:27:05.020 the trial and
00:27:06.200 all the evidence
00:27:06.820 just the way the
00:27:07.500 jury did, the
00:27:08.580 same way the
00:27:09.040 jury did, do
00:27:10.040 you think all
00:27:10.420 the lawyers
00:27:10.940 watching it on
00:27:11.640 TV, seeing all
00:27:12.760 the evidence,
00:27:13.740 would all have
00:27:14.440 the same
00:27:14.760 opinion?
00:27:16.760 Oh, yeah,
00:27:17.360 those are,
00:27:17.880 he violated the
00:27:18.760 law, got to
00:27:19.240 go to jail.
00:27:19.640 Probably not,
00:27:22.160 right?
00:27:23.700 Too early to
00:27:24.640 say, but
00:27:25.280 probably not.
00:27:26.780 So what
00:27:27.440 happens if you
00:27:28.420 take the
00:27:29.060 major competitor
00:27:31.000 out of the
00:27:31.420 race, one
00:27:32.340 whose polls
00:27:33.140 look pretty
00:27:33.760 promising at
00:27:34.420 the moment,
00:27:35.260 you take him
00:27:36.180 out of the
00:27:36.460 race based
00:27:37.240 on crimes
00:27:39.760 that the
00:27:40.960 public doesn't
00:27:41.800 understand and
00:27:43.660 lawyers observing
00:27:44.800 it don't agree
00:27:45.920 even what
00:27:46.860 happened and
00:27:48.540 what's illegal.
00:27:49.640 Is that a
00:27:50.600 safe, safe
00:27:51.500 situation for
00:27:52.300 the country?
00:27:53.660 That's where
00:27:54.480 we're headed.
00:27:55.560 That's the
00:27:56.160 current trajectory
00:27:57.120 is that Trump
00:27:58.500 will be taken
00:27:59.240 out by charges
00:28:00.720 that the public
00:28:01.480 doesn't understand,
00:28:03.040 too complicated,
00:28:04.480 and lawyers
00:28:05.780 disagree whether
00:28:07.040 justice was
00:28:08.480 served.
00:28:10.700 That's where
00:28:11.840 we're headed.
00:28:13.860 It's almost
00:28:14.780 unbelievable that
00:28:16.680 we could do it
00:28:17.360 willingly.
00:28:17.760 We're just
00:28:18.720 sleepwalking
00:28:19.560 right into the
00:28:20.660 woodchipper,
00:28:21.520 and we know
00:28:22.740 what's happening.
00:28:23.780 Well, there's
00:28:24.460 the woodchipper
00:28:24.980 walking right
00:28:26.440 toward it.
00:28:27.260 Let's walk
00:28:27.860 into that
00:28:28.260 woodchipper.
00:28:29.880 What do you
00:28:30.500 mean it's a
00:28:30.840 bad idea?
00:28:31.540 Well, I know
00:28:31.960 it's a bad
00:28:32.320 idea, but I'm
00:28:32.960 going to do it
00:28:33.320 anyway.
00:28:34.000 Walk it into
00:28:34.580 the woodchipper.
00:28:36.100 Or has the
00:28:38.260 public so beaten
00:28:39.500 down and
00:28:40.100 discouraged and
00:28:41.140 demoralized that
00:28:43.720 the Democrats can
00:28:44.640 literally do
00:28:45.380 whatever they
00:28:45.820 want at this
00:28:46.360 point, because
00:28:47.360 they've already
00:28:48.480 told you you'll
00:28:49.120 go to jail if
00:28:49.840 you even protest.
00:28:51.420 That's what
00:28:52.040 January 6th was
00:28:52.900 about, in my
00:28:54.020 opinion.
00:28:55.220 In my opinion,
00:28:56.140 January 6th was
00:28:56.960 about stopping the
00:28:58.820 next protest.
00:29:00.560 I don't think it
00:29:01.080 was about the
00:29:01.560 last one, because
00:29:02.800 nobody cares about
00:29:03.500 the last one.
00:29:04.120 It looked like a
00:29:04.840 one-off, right?
00:29:06.780 Didn't January 6th
00:29:07.700 look like a one-off
00:29:08.760 by patriots who
00:29:10.280 maybe were misled
00:29:11.980 about what
00:29:12.740 information was true
00:29:13.640 and what wasn't, or
00:29:15.100 maybe they were
00:29:15.620 right and we
00:29:16.220 don't know it.
00:29:16.860 That's also a
00:29:17.460 possibility.
00:29:18.840 So I think that
00:29:21.160 the January 6th
00:29:22.620 hammer is to
00:29:23.680 make sure that
00:29:24.320 the same people
00:29:25.040 don't complain
00:29:25.840 when things get
00:29:27.620 worse, and it's
00:29:28.660 more obvious that
00:29:29.660 they're being
00:29:30.840 abused.
00:29:32.500 Now, I don't
00:29:33.060 know that people
00:29:33.580 actually have that
00:29:34.420 conscious thought.
00:29:36.660 This would be a
00:29:37.300 case of people
00:29:37.920 just who are on
00:29:39.180 the same side
00:29:40.060 would just
00:29:41.280 naturally know
00:29:42.300 what's good for
00:29:42.960 their team, so
00:29:43.720 the collective
00:29:44.260 actions look like
00:29:45.260 a plot, but it
00:29:46.440 doesn't need to be
00:29:47.020 a plot.
00:29:47.980 It's just everybody
00:29:48.580 knows what's good
00:29:49.280 for their team.
00:29:50.360 Now, what's good
00:29:50.840 for their team is
00:29:51.600 that any time the
00:29:52.800 other side complains,
00:29:53.820 they go to jail.
00:29:56.920 That's pretty good
00:29:57.680 for your team.
00:29:58.940 Do you think your
00:29:59.520 team is stronger if
00:30:00.620 the other team
00:30:02.120 complains about
00:30:02.880 you cheating, that
00:30:04.440 the team complaining
00:30:05.420 about the cheating
00:30:06.080 goes to jail?
00:30:07.500 Not the
00:30:08.020 cheaters, or
00:30:09.520 potential cheaters,
00:30:10.840 because we don't
00:30:11.320 have proof of
00:30:11.900 cheating, but no,
00:30:13.740 the people
00:30:14.040 complained about
00:30:14.980 it.
00:30:15.240 They go to jail
00:30:15.940 because the way
00:30:17.900 they complained
00:30:18.520 would be the
00:30:19.060 argument, right?
00:30:20.380 And of course,
00:30:21.260 nobody's arguing
00:30:21.940 about the ones
00:30:22.520 who were actually
00:30:22.980 violent.
00:30:24.120 For the NPCs,
00:30:25.540 I'd like to
00:30:26.160 once again bring
00:30:27.540 Dale in to
00:30:28.720 just sum this
00:30:30.320 up.
00:30:32.180 There were some
00:30:32.880 people who were
00:30:33.460 violent on January
00:30:34.320 6th.
00:30:35.860 We know.
00:30:38.580 Dale, we know.
00:30:39.500 We know.
00:30:40.600 We know.
00:30:41.720 We know.
00:30:42.280 We're not talking
00:30:42.860 about them.
00:30:43.500 We know.
00:30:44.140 Dale.
00:30:46.180 But did you know
00:30:47.040 that there were
00:30:47.460 some that were
00:30:47.840 violent?
00:30:48.540 No, Dale.
00:30:49.680 Dale, stop it.
00:30:51.440 Soil and greed is
00:30:52.100 people.
00:30:53.460 Just like the
00:30:54.020 Matrix.
00:30:55.720 All right, Dale,
00:30:56.440 go back to your
00:30:57.300 hiding place.
00:30:59.120 All right.
00:31:01.920 Now, here's the
00:31:03.340 interesting part.
00:31:04.840 Vivek Ramaswamy,
00:31:08.260 who's, again,
00:31:11.060 doing amazing
00:31:12.060 in his job of
00:31:13.500 campaigning.
00:31:14.700 Is there anyone
00:31:15.340 who would disagree
00:31:15.960 with the statement
00:31:16.680 that Vivek Ramaswamy
00:31:18.600 is showing
00:31:19.840 Republicans had a
00:31:20.840 campaign?
00:31:23.180 Would everybody
00:31:23.900 agree with that?
00:31:25.600 Or is this just
00:31:26.400 my own, am I
00:31:27.920 biased?
00:31:29.340 Because even if
00:31:30.200 you don't pick him,
00:31:31.180 you know, even if
00:31:31.700 he's not your first
00:31:32.460 choice, which I get,
00:31:33.780 I get that,
00:31:34.840 even if he's not
00:31:35.600 your first choice,
00:31:36.680 he's running a
00:31:37.560 campaign like I've
00:31:38.440 never seen.
00:31:39.900 To me, to me,
00:31:40.780 this looks like the
00:31:41.400 best, so far,
00:31:44.140 best campaign I've
00:31:45.060 ever seen, I would
00:31:46.800 say.
00:31:47.980 No mistakes.
00:31:49.820 No mistakes.
00:31:51.860 He gets in the
00:31:52.620 news every day by
00:31:54.020 being provocative,
00:31:55.420 but he's provocative
00:31:56.560 within bounds.
00:31:58.520 Right?
00:31:59.400 Like, he can see
00:32:00.500 the line, and he
00:32:01.760 walks right up to
00:32:02.460 the line, and
00:32:03.660 instead of what
00:32:04.280 Trump does,
00:32:04.840 which he'll stick
00:32:05.460 his foot over the
00:32:06.140 line, like
00:32:07.300 repeatedly.
00:32:08.520 Vivek goes up to
00:32:09.400 the line, he may
00:32:10.340 try to move the
00:32:10.960 line, but he stays
00:32:12.680 very clearly on the
00:32:15.080 side of the line
00:32:15.680 that keeps him out
00:32:16.340 of trouble and
00:32:17.060 allows him to be a
00:32:18.480 credible president,
00:32:19.840 should it come to
00:32:20.720 that.
00:32:21.740 So, I can't say
00:32:23.440 enough about how
00:32:24.860 smart he is in
00:32:27.680 just pushing his
00:32:28.960 campaign.
00:32:30.360 And I would say
00:32:31.120 that others are
00:32:31.760 copying him.
00:32:32.400 I think he's
00:32:33.440 already setting a
00:32:34.180 standard that
00:32:34.800 others have to
00:32:35.420 look to, to
00:32:36.120 figure out what
00:32:37.080 to do.
00:32:38.380 But, here's
00:32:39.240 something he said
00:32:39.860 that I thought
00:32:41.380 captured it
00:32:42.040 perfectly.
00:32:42.860 So, he's making
00:32:43.720 the argument why
00:32:44.500 he should be
00:32:45.020 president instead
00:32:45.820 of Trump, when
00:32:47.220 it's obvious that
00:32:48.020 more people like
00:32:48.740 Trump.
00:32:49.720 It's a tough
00:32:50.240 argument, right?
00:32:51.600 Why would you
00:32:52.380 vote for him if
00:32:54.600 you clearly prefer
00:32:55.620 Trump?
00:32:56.520 You know,
00:32:57.020 according to the
00:32:57.540 polls.
00:32:57.760 And his
00:32:58.440 argument is
00:32:58.960 this, that
00:33:01.400 about 30% of
00:33:02.440 the country
00:33:02.800 becomes, quote,
00:33:03.780 psychiatrically ill
00:33:05.160 in response to
00:33:05.980 whatever Trump
00:33:06.680 champions.
00:33:07.800 And they will
00:33:08.540 take a new
00:33:09.080 outsider, somebody
00:33:10.180 like Vivek, to
00:33:11.460 further the agenda.
00:33:13.620 What do you
00:33:13.940 think of that
00:33:14.320 argument?
00:33:15.740 I like the same
00:33:16.660 things Trump
00:33:17.200 does, but because
00:33:18.720 he makes 30% of
00:33:19.920 the country
00:33:20.340 psychiatrically ill,
00:33:22.440 he's simply no
00:33:23.340 longer practical.
00:33:24.200 You need the
00:33:25.840 practical alternative
00:33:26.960 that gets you
00:33:28.260 Trump-like results,
00:33:29.840 but without the
00:33:30.740 Trump-like
00:33:31.420 psychological damage.
00:33:33.920 It's very good.
00:33:35.520 It's not good,
00:33:36.300 it's perfect.
00:33:37.880 It's exactly the
00:33:39.240 right argument.
00:33:40.260 Because it's not
00:33:41.320 insulting Trump,
00:33:43.160 because he's not
00:33:43.780 saying that people
00:33:44.600 go crazy because
00:33:45.720 of Trump.
00:33:47.680 He's simply
00:33:48.600 noting a fact
00:33:49.840 that we all
00:33:50.460 see.
00:33:51.400 You all see the
00:33:52.340 same thing.
00:33:52.840 we all see the
00:33:54.600 30% of the
00:33:55.400 public goes
00:33:55.980 absolutely
00:33:56.700 psychologically
00:33:57.660 nuts.
00:33:59.620 Now, would you
00:34:00.200 agree that Trump
00:34:01.080 makes it easy?
00:34:02.740 He gives them
00:34:03.680 the material that
00:34:04.560 they can do it,
00:34:05.260 because he stays
00:34:06.100 provocative all the
00:34:07.140 time.
00:34:09.360 Vivek is a little
00:34:10.360 bit more nimble,
00:34:11.880 so he's not going
00:34:12.700 into provocative
00:34:13.440 territory just to
00:34:14.700 be provocative.
00:34:16.140 He goes
00:34:17.040 everywhere he has
00:34:17.900 the better
00:34:18.280 argument, and
00:34:19.520 then he wins
00:34:20.020 it, and then he
00:34:21.240 finds another
00:34:21.700 place where he
00:34:22.240 has the best
00:34:22.680 argument, and
00:34:23.240 then he goes
00:34:23.520 and he wins
00:34:23.860 that.
00:34:24.580 But he's
00:34:25.100 basically winning
00:34:25.860 arguments.
00:34:27.220 He's not just
00:34:27.820 making your hair
00:34:28.400 catch on fire.
00:34:29.560 It's a very
00:34:30.040 different strategy.
00:34:31.620 So I would say
00:34:32.540 that he perfectly
00:34:33.360 framed it.
00:34:34.880 I can give you
00:34:35.960 similar results to
00:34:37.080 Trump, who you
00:34:37.680 liked, but I'll
00:34:39.820 do it without
00:34:40.300 making the other
00:34:41.020 side mentally ill.
00:34:43.360 That's a really
00:34:44.120 strong case.
00:34:47.040 Because he knows,
00:34:48.360 and you know,
00:34:49.520 that the only
00:34:50.240 problem with
00:34:50.860 Trump, in my
00:34:52.680 opinion, not the
00:34:54.140 only problem,
00:34:54.760 that's too far.
00:34:56.380 The main
00:34:57.060 problem with
00:34:57.680 Trump is that
00:34:59.340 the other side
00:34:59.900 goes crazy, and
00:35:01.820 that causes
00:35:02.240 trouble for you
00:35:03.040 and me and
00:35:03.600 everybody else who
00:35:04.320 might think that
00:35:05.140 his policies are
00:35:05.920 good.
00:35:07.100 So it's a
00:35:07.960 strong play,
00:35:08.900 strong play.
00:35:09.920 And he's also
00:35:10.620 being completely
00:35:11.480 respectful to
00:35:13.360 Trump and his
00:35:14.160 accomplishments and
00:35:15.180 how he's
00:35:16.880 changed the
00:35:17.320 country.
00:35:18.740 So he could
00:35:19.700 not be more
00:35:20.420 on point on
00:35:21.660 that.
00:35:23.040 And he says,
00:35:23.940 I think it is
00:35:24.460 unproductive for
00:35:25.500 a country to
00:35:26.020 blame Trump for
00:35:26.720 January 6th,
00:35:28.300 because it
00:35:29.040 exonerates
00:35:29.660 everyone else
00:35:30.680 from introspection
00:35:32.520 on what actually
00:35:35.560 led to the
00:35:36.120 frustrations of
00:35:36.980 America that
00:35:38.060 boiled over that
00:35:39.320 day.
00:35:40.280 Is that
00:35:40.640 perfect?
00:35:41.980 I mean,
00:35:42.360 that is just
00:35:43.200 so perfect.
00:35:45.140 Communication
00:35:45.640 skills are just
00:35:46.880 off the
00:35:48.340 fucking chart.
00:35:49.880 All right,
00:35:50.140 to say it's
00:35:50.540 unproductive is
00:35:51.540 exactly the
00:35:52.300 right frame.
00:35:53.700 Don't say it's
00:35:54.460 wrong.
00:35:55.780 Don't say it's
00:35:56.480 true.
00:35:57.700 Don't say it's
00:35:58.340 untrue.
00:35:59.820 Say it's not
00:36:00.780 useful.
00:36:02.120 It's unproductive.
00:36:03.900 Boom.
00:36:05.020 Exactly,
00:36:05.880 exactly the
00:36:06.720 right place.
00:36:07.760 Like, he's
00:36:08.380 finding the
00:36:09.000 exhaust pipe on
00:36:09.900 the Death Star
00:36:10.620 like three times
00:36:12.140 a day.
00:36:13.200 Like, I don't
00:36:13.640 know if you're
00:36:13.980 catching that.
00:36:15.200 Let me say it
00:36:15.680 again.
00:36:16.940 Vivek is
00:36:17.600 finding the
00:36:18.360 exhaust pipe of
00:36:19.580 the Death Star
00:36:20.400 three times a
00:36:22.040 day, right in
00:36:23.460 front of you.
00:36:24.700 If you don't
00:36:25.380 start noticing the
00:36:26.280 pattern after a
00:36:27.240 while, like,
00:36:28.220 that's got to be
00:36:28.700 on you, because
00:36:30.080 there's a very
00:36:30.840 clear pattern
00:36:31.620 developing, which
00:36:32.540 is extreme
00:36:34.020 skill.
00:36:35.180 Extreme skill.
00:36:36.740 Like we've
00:36:37.420 never seen,
00:36:38.000 honestly.
00:36:38.260 Trump's in a
00:36:41.280 category of
00:36:41.820 his own.
00:36:42.260 He's a one
00:36:42.820 of a kind.
00:36:43.780 So there's
00:36:44.080 nobody who's
00:36:44.640 more Trump
00:36:45.480 than Trump.
00:36:46.720 He's the
00:36:47.080 best Trump.
00:36:48.620 But if you
00:36:49.500 want something
00:36:50.080 else that
00:36:51.280 gives you
00:36:51.740 maybe some
00:36:52.260 similar outcomes,
00:36:53.840 that's a hell
00:36:54.600 of an option.
00:36:56.000 And I think
00:36:56.520 it's becoming
00:36:57.500 obvious to all
00:36:58.760 observers, too,
00:36:59.700 which is
00:37:00.040 interesting.
00:37:01.220 Are you
00:37:01.640 watching this
00:37:02.320 slow realization
00:37:04.860 that, oh,
00:37:06.780 yeah, his
00:37:07.240 polling numbers
00:37:08.080 are not, you
00:37:08.740 know, through
00:37:09.100 the roof,
00:37:09.840 Vivek, but
00:37:10.940 they're solid.
00:37:12.080 It does show
00:37:13.020 that people are
00:37:13.560 paying attention.
00:37:14.880 And why is it
00:37:15.640 that every time
00:37:16.200 we want to do
00:37:16.740 a hit piece on
00:37:17.380 him, we
00:37:17.680 can't?
00:37:19.160 Have you
00:37:19.700 noticed that?
00:37:21.000 Have you
00:37:21.360 noticed?
00:37:23.160 Dog not
00:37:23.900 barking, people.
00:37:25.340 Here's the
00:37:26.000 biggest dog
00:37:26.820 that's not
00:37:27.280 barking.
00:37:29.440 Nobody's run
00:37:30.100 a big hit piece
00:37:30.860 on Vivek yet.
00:37:32.680 Nobody.
00:37:33.820 Do you know
00:37:34.180 why?
00:37:35.680 They got
00:37:36.320 nothing.
00:37:37.420 They got
00:37:37.800 nothing.
00:37:38.740 It's the same
00:37:39.240 reason you
00:37:39.620 haven't seen
00:37:40.020 the big hit
00:37:40.480 piece on
00:37:40.860 me.
00:37:42.140 Right?
00:37:42.500 I got fully
00:37:43.280 canceled globally.
00:37:45.000 I got canceled
00:37:46.200 all over the
00:37:46.820 planet.
00:37:48.300 What's the
00:37:48.760 next thing
00:37:49.200 that always
00:37:49.920 happens after
00:37:50.580 you get
00:37:50.900 canceled?
00:37:51.940 Always.
00:37:53.180 There are
00:37:53.720 large articles
00:37:54.620 showing that
00:37:55.860 the recent
00:37:56.780 thing you
00:37:57.220 did is not
00:37:58.420 unusual because
00:37:59.340 you have a
00:37:59.740 whole history
00:38:00.240 of bad
00:38:00.620 things.
00:38:02.280 Did you see
00:38:02.780 that with
00:38:03.080 me?
00:38:04.320 No.
00:38:05.880 Do you
00:38:06.420 think nobody
00:38:06.880 looked into
00:38:07.380 it?
00:38:07.940 Do you
00:38:08.140 think nobody
00:38:08.660 scoured all
00:38:09.540 of my old
00:38:10.160 tweets?
00:38:10.840 Of course
00:38:11.260 they did.
00:38:12.240 Do you
00:38:12.440 think they
00:38:12.840 didn't look
00:38:13.180 at every
00:38:13.660 blog post I
00:38:14.480 ever read,
00:38:15.300 wrote,
00:38:15.700 every book I
00:38:16.920 ever wrote?
00:38:18.920 You don't
00:38:19.300 think they
00:38:19.620 looked at all
00:38:20.300 of it,
00:38:20.640 looking for
00:38:21.040 the supporting
00:38:21.740 data to
00:38:22.760 their theory?
00:38:24.000 Of course
00:38:24.440 they did.
00:38:25.260 They looked
00:38:25.740 through 30
00:38:26.260 years of my
00:38:26.820 life and
00:38:27.160 didn't find a
00:38:27.620 fucking thing.
00:38:28.100 That's the
00:38:29.680 only reason.
00:38:31.320 Would you
00:38:31.740 agree that
00:38:33.780 if anything
00:38:34.480 was there,
00:38:35.560 there would
00:38:35.980 have been a
00:38:36.360 major story
00:38:37.040 about it?
00:38:38.000 Because my
00:38:38.760 cancellation was
00:38:39.540 a major story.
00:38:40.620 It's the
00:38:41.020 obvious follow-up.
00:38:42.780 Oh my God,
00:38:44.060 he was always
00:38:44.820 like this and
00:38:45.920 we just didn't
00:38:46.560 know.
00:38:47.980 And then it
00:38:48.400 turns out there
00:38:48.800 was nothing
00:38:49.160 there because
00:38:50.220 the story was
00:38:51.000 90% bullshit
00:38:52.680 the way it was
00:38:53.200 framed.
00:38:54.420 Now, there are
00:38:55.280 still people who
00:38:55.840 believe the news,
00:38:56.480 so I feel
00:38:57.600 sorry for you.
00:38:58.480 But if you
00:38:58.940 believe the news
00:38:59.500 about public
00:39:00.140 figures, then
00:39:01.360 I'm doubly
00:39:01.960 sorry for you
00:39:02.700 because that's
00:39:03.300 just never
00:39:03.740 true.
00:39:04.860 Now, back
00:39:05.280 to Vivek.
00:39:07.580 Vivek is way
00:39:08.500 too strong
00:39:09.360 already and
00:39:10.660 he does have
00:39:11.140 a path, by
00:39:11.860 the way.
00:39:12.420 If you think
00:39:12.880 he doesn't
00:39:13.260 have a path,
00:39:14.280 the Democrats
00:39:14.900 are making
00:39:15.480 the path for
00:39:16.240 him.
00:39:17.240 The Democrats
00:39:17.860 are trying to
00:39:18.460 take out the
00:39:19.000 only thing that
00:39:19.720 stands between
00:39:20.380 Vivek and the
00:39:21.320 White House
00:39:21.760 because it's
00:39:22.780 not DeSantis,
00:39:24.580 in my opinion.
00:39:25.760 In my
00:39:26.240 opinion, a
00:39:26.940 straight-up
00:39:27.560 contest between
00:39:28.480 DeSantis and
00:39:29.740 Vivek would
00:39:31.400 go Vivek's
00:39:32.500 way.
00:39:33.620 And it would
00:39:33.920 be just
00:39:34.400 because if
00:39:35.340 you put the
00:39:35.760 two of them
00:39:36.040 on the stage
00:39:36.600 together,
00:39:39.740 one's a
00:39:41.860 nuclear power
00:39:42.640 plant and the
00:39:43.200 other's a
00:39:44.900 lighter.
00:39:47.780 They're not
00:39:48.420 really on the
00:39:49.020 same, I don't
00:39:49.740 think they're on
00:39:50.180 the same plane.
00:39:52.640 The same way
00:39:53.580 you'd expect
00:39:54.180 Trump would
00:39:55.560 destroy, let's
00:39:57.180 say, Pence
00:39:57.740 in a
00:39:58.920 debate.
00:40:01.220 You can't
00:40:01.960 imagine that
00:40:02.660 DeSantis would
00:40:03.340 be able to
00:40:03.680 beat Vivek in
00:40:04.700 a debate
00:40:05.180 because he
00:40:06.060 would have
00:40:06.360 nothing to
00:40:06.760 go after.
00:40:07.600 You can't
00:40:07.940 go after
00:40:08.240 Vivek's...
00:40:09.460 Vivek doesn't
00:40:10.280 have a history
00:40:12.140 to go after,
00:40:12.880 a political
00:40:13.380 history.
00:40:14.680 So that
00:40:15.540 entire area
00:40:17.200 of attack
00:40:17.900 just doesn't
00:40:18.520 exist.
00:40:19.880 Nor does he
00:40:20.720 have what
00:40:21.320 Trump had,
00:40:21.960 which were
00:40:22.280 some
00:40:22.500 businesses
00:40:22.980 that had
00:40:23.580 some
00:40:23.860 sketchy
00:40:25.020 elements to
00:40:25.600 him.
00:40:27.120 He doesn't
00:40:27.820 have anything.
00:40:28.640 There's just
00:40:28.960 nothing to
00:40:29.400 attack.
00:40:30.220 So you
00:40:30.600 would have
00:40:30.880 to attack
00:40:31.380 with Vivek
00:40:32.140 his current
00:40:33.120 opinions,
00:40:34.720 which match
00:40:35.740 Republicans
00:40:36.340 well.
00:40:37.800 So DeSantis
00:40:38.380 has no
00:40:38.980 policy or
00:40:42.720 historical
00:40:43.340 advantage over
00:40:44.120 Vivek's
00:40:44.740 argument.
00:40:45.440 Nothing.
00:40:46.320 So he would
00:40:46.920 have to go
00:40:47.320 against them
00:40:47.860 as a smart,
00:40:48.960 capable person,
00:40:49.840 which he is.
00:40:50.440 DeSantis is
00:40:52.320 very smart,
00:40:53.520 very capable,
00:40:55.160 and has a
00:40:55.940 track record
00:40:56.560 of proving
00:40:57.020 that he is
00:40:57.680 both smart
00:40:58.180 and capable
00:40:58.600 and does
00:40:59.160 things you
00:40:59.520 like.
00:41:00.400 It's a
00:41:00.680 very strong
00:41:01.120 package.
00:41:02.820 But Vivek's
00:41:04.940 oratory and
00:41:06.980 his communication
00:41:07.540 skills,
00:41:08.320 his framing,
00:41:09.260 are a whole
00:41:09.740 different level.
00:41:10.340 They are not
00:41:12.200 verbally equal.
00:41:15.680 You all get
00:41:16.260 that?
00:41:17.220 Everybody gets
00:41:17.920 that Vivek's
00:41:18.540 on his own
00:41:19.060 level.
00:41:19.400 If you put
00:41:20.560 him in a
00:41:20.860 contest where
00:41:21.500 talking is
00:41:22.480 the game,
00:41:23.880 it's no
00:41:24.320 contest.
00:41:26.200 If you put
00:41:26.920 him in a
00:41:27.200 contest where
00:41:27.760 they both
00:41:28.240 governed,
00:41:29.420 maybe DeSantis
00:41:30.220 is better.
00:41:32.120 I have
00:41:32.900 absolutely
00:41:33.260 nothing negative
00:41:34.460 about DeSantis.
00:41:36.320 Nothing.
00:41:37.600 He would be
00:41:38.220 just a solid,
00:41:39.280 solid president,
00:41:40.040 in my opinion.
00:41:41.680 But I just
00:41:42.960 think he would
00:41:43.380 disappear on
00:41:44.020 the stage next
00:41:44.820 to Vivek's
00:41:45.660 firepower.
00:41:46.280 I think he'd
00:41:47.580 just blow him
00:41:48.020 away.
00:41:49.400 It wouldn't
00:41:50.400 be instant.
00:41:51.240 I think what
00:41:51.640 you would see
00:41:52.020 if you saw
00:41:52.480 those two
00:41:52.940 debate,
00:41:53.880 I think you'd
00:41:54.480 see DeSantis
00:41:56.260 going from a
00:41:57.780 commanding lead
00:41:58.700 to half of
00:42:00.240 that lead
00:42:00.700 with one
00:42:01.360 debate.
00:42:02.620 And then the
00:42:03.140 stories would be
00:42:03.740 about momentum
00:42:04.420 and then it
00:42:05.900 would be over.
00:42:08.420 If he could
00:42:09.280 pull head before
00:42:10.480 the actual
00:42:11.260 primary stuff.
00:42:13.600 Anyway,
00:42:14.000 so if you don't
00:42:14.460 think Vivek has a
00:42:15.340 path,
00:42:15.720 the Democrats
00:42:16.720 are trying as
00:42:17.460 hard as possible
00:42:18.400 to make that
00:42:18.960 path.
00:42:19.700 And here's my
00:42:20.440 payoff for
00:42:21.760 listening to all
00:42:22.440 this.
00:42:24.220 Whether Vivek
00:42:25.220 says it directly
00:42:26.220 or not,
00:42:27.420 and he probably
00:42:27.980 wouldn't,
00:42:29.780 if Trump gets
00:42:31.000 taken down,
00:42:32.780 you're going to
00:42:33.340 want revenge.
00:42:36.040 Am I right?
00:42:37.880 Even if you
00:42:38.700 didn't like Trump,
00:42:40.000 let's say you're a
00:42:40.900 conservative Republican
00:42:42.020 and you didn't like
00:42:43.260 Trump, you legitimately
00:42:44.400 didn't want him to be
00:42:45.220 the next candidate.
00:42:46.740 But if he got
00:42:47.340 taken out by dirty
00:42:49.360 tricks, in your
00:42:50.380 opinion, they were
00:42:51.240 dirty tricks,
00:42:52.520 wouldn't you want
00:42:53.900 revenge?
00:42:55.940 Even if he's not
00:42:56.820 your guy, right?
00:42:58.260 Just the fact that
00:42:59.120 somebody on your
00:42:59.720 team got taken out
00:43:00.780 by the other side,
00:43:03.000 you're going to want
00:43:03.600 revenge.
00:43:05.120 Who's going to give
00:43:05.840 it to you?
00:43:08.200 Pence?
00:43:08.600 Do you think
00:43:13.280 DeSantis cares
00:43:16.880 about what
00:43:18.720 happens to
00:43:19.280 Trump?
00:43:21.100 At the moment,
00:43:22.120 probably not.
00:43:24.220 Now, it's not
00:43:25.300 just a question of
00:43:26.180 who cares about
00:43:26.900 what.
00:43:27.840 It's also a
00:43:28.580 question of
00:43:29.220 protecting the
00:43:30.120 base and
00:43:31.200 making sure that
00:43:31.960 one side is not
00:43:32.860 a victim to the
00:43:33.580 other.
00:43:34.300 I think Vivek
00:43:35.140 would rip him
00:43:35.720 apart.
00:43:36.020 I think Vivek
00:43:38.780 would take out
00:43:39.920 the evil from
00:43:40.580 the roots.
00:43:42.060 Because that's
00:43:42.440 what he's talking
00:43:42.940 about.
00:43:43.780 I mean, he's
00:43:44.100 talking about
00:43:44.580 going after the
00:43:45.180 root system.
00:43:46.260 Nobody's ever
00:43:46.780 talked about that.
00:43:47.980 The whole
00:43:48.260 draining the
00:43:48.820 swamp thing
00:43:49.300 wasn't even
00:43:49.860 Trump.
00:43:50.620 I think the
00:43:51.120 crowd said
00:43:52.180 that he just
00:43:52.720 embraced it.
00:43:53.920 But Vivek is
00:43:54.680 talking very
00:43:55.520 detailed about
00:43:57.320 which entities
00:43:58.040 are going to
00:43:58.420 go completely
00:43:59.260 away.
00:44:00.780 Yeah.
00:44:01.120 Pulling it up
00:44:01.580 by its roots
00:44:02.320 is a pretty
00:44:04.260 strong statement
00:44:05.040 and it would
00:44:05.860 look like
00:44:06.300 revenge to
00:44:07.200 Republicans.
00:44:08.880 All right.
00:44:09.420 Well, how
00:44:09.980 about your
00:44:10.540 department
00:44:10.920 doesn't exist
00:44:11.660 anymore?
00:44:12.560 That's how
00:44:12.980 much we
00:44:13.400 love you.
00:44:15.600 So here's
00:44:16.320 the situation
00:44:16.860 I see
00:44:17.220 developing.
00:44:18.060 The Democrats
00:44:18.640 are going to
00:44:18.960 try to take
00:44:19.420 Trump out
00:44:19.940 or at least
00:44:20.500 they'll damage
00:44:21.020 him so much
00:44:21.660 that he looks
00:44:22.280 less like he
00:44:24.900 could take on
00:44:25.400 Biden.
00:44:27.380 If Trump
00:44:28.140 goes down,
00:44:29.960 and so far
00:44:30.640 I'm predicting
00:44:32.020 against it,
00:44:33.420 I think it's
00:44:33.800 more likely
00:44:34.300 Trump survives
00:44:35.160 all the legal
00:44:35.660 challenges.
00:44:37.220 But if he
00:44:37.900 doesn't,
00:44:38.380 it's certainly
00:44:38.700 not guaranteed,
00:44:39.620 if he doesn't,
00:44:41.240 Vivek is going
00:44:41.900 to be the
00:44:42.520 sword of the
00:44:43.920 Republicans.
00:44:46.780 Vivek will be
00:44:47.520 the sword of
00:44:48.500 the Republicans.
00:44:50.840 Because I
00:44:51.420 don't think
00:44:52.000 that the
00:44:52.380 Republicans,
00:44:52.820 I don't think
00:44:53.220 Trump supporters
00:44:53.980 would trust
00:44:55.160 DeSantis to do
00:44:56.140 what needs to
00:44:56.700 be done.
00:44:57.660 Is that fair?
00:44:59.100 You might even
00:44:59.840 like DeSantis,
00:45:00.800 you might even
00:45:01.280 think he'd be a
00:45:01.840 great president,
00:45:02.600 I think he'd
00:45:03.080 be solid.
00:45:04.640 But you don't
00:45:05.520 think he would
00:45:06.240 necessarily get
00:45:07.160 you the
00:45:07.880 vengeance that
00:45:09.480 you feel you
00:45:10.080 need.
00:45:11.520 And I don't
00:45:12.580 recommend vengeance
00:45:13.400 as a policy
00:45:15.160 preference.
00:45:16.540 I'm not saying
00:45:17.300 you should be
00:45:17.920 vengeful,
00:45:19.180 I'm saying
00:45:19.680 you're going
00:45:20.140 to feel it.
00:45:21.280 It's just
00:45:21.740 going to be
00:45:22.140 there,
00:45:22.580 whether you
00:45:23.080 like it or
00:45:23.540 not.
00:45:23.840 I'd feel it.
00:45:24.880 I would
00:45:25.220 definitely want
00:45:25.740 revenge,
00:45:26.780 even while I'm
00:45:27.480 telling myself,
00:45:28.180 don't be like
00:45:28.640 that, Scott.
00:45:29.600 Don't be that
00:45:30.260 guy, don't
00:45:31.400 be that guy
00:45:31.960 who wants
00:45:32.280 revenge.
00:45:33.860 But I'd
00:45:34.260 want it.
00:45:35.740 And I'd
00:45:36.220 be happy if
00:45:36.760 he got it.
00:45:38.400 So CNN's
00:45:39.300 reporting about
00:45:39.980 they're talking
00:45:44.740 about a
00:45:45.260 study from
00:45:45.860 the JAMA
00:45:47.660 Surgery
00:45:49.200 Journal.
00:45:50.600 Did some
00:45:51.300 kind of a
00:45:51.640 study or
00:45:52.180 report or
00:45:52.900 something that
00:45:53.340 said that
00:45:53.680 mass shootings
00:45:54.200 in major
00:45:54.720 metropolitan
00:45:55.200 areas in
00:45:55.780 the United
00:45:56.040 States
00:45:56.380 disproportionately
00:45:57.680 affect black
00:45:58.480 people.
00:45:58.820 And structural
00:46:00.880 racism may
00:46:02.180 play a role
00:46:02.960 according to
00:46:04.020 this study.
00:46:05.780 That's right.
00:46:06.380 Mass shootings
00:46:07.120 disproportionately
00:46:08.700 affect black
00:46:09.680 people.
00:46:11.700 Now, there
00:46:12.120 was no
00:46:12.560 prescription given
00:46:15.060 about what to
00:46:15.680 do about it,
00:46:17.380 but I'd
00:46:20.620 say move
00:46:21.580 away.
00:46:23.840 I mean,
00:46:24.040 that's just
00:46:25.400 my first
00:46:25.840 thought.
00:46:26.160 if I were
00:46:29.520 black, I
00:46:30.060 would want
00:46:30.420 to get
00:46:30.720 away from
00:46:31.320 any place
00:46:32.060 that had a
00:46:32.580 high likelihood
00:46:33.300 of mass
00:46:34.320 shooting.
00:46:35.900 So shouldn't
00:46:36.860 you just get
00:46:37.520 away from
00:46:37.860 those places?
00:46:39.540 Now, I don't
00:46:40.340 believe that the
00:46:40.940 problem is that
00:46:41.620 white people are
00:46:42.300 coming into the
00:46:42.840 black neighborhoods
00:46:43.460 and shooting a
00:46:44.340 bunch of black
00:46:44.840 people.
00:46:45.900 The study doesn't
00:46:46.960 seem to say
00:46:47.500 that.
00:46:48.100 It would seem
00:46:48.580 like it's black
00:46:49.420 people shooting
00:46:49.960 other black
00:46:50.440 people.
00:46:51.740 And my guess
00:46:52.920 is that that
00:46:53.580 doesn't happen
00:46:54.160 in every town.
00:46:56.160 I would think
00:46:57.500 that might
00:46:57.960 statistically be
00:46:59.600 more likely
00:47:00.140 in places
00:47:01.340 where there's
00:47:01.880 greater density.
00:47:04.160 So if you
00:47:04.920 wanted to get
00:47:05.400 away from
00:47:05.760 this, you
00:47:07.380 should go
00:47:07.900 get away from
00:47:08.820 density of
00:47:10.200 any kind,
00:47:11.020 any kind of
00:47:11.600 density.
00:47:13.480 So that's my
00:47:14.500 advice to
00:47:15.660 black people
00:47:16.460 who are at
00:47:17.020 risk of mass
00:47:17.780 shootings because
00:47:18.460 they're in areas
00:47:19.040 where they're
00:47:19.520 more likely to
00:47:20.120 happen.
00:47:21.160 You should
00:47:21.460 get away from
00:47:21.900 there.
00:47:24.360 Am I double
00:47:25.240 canceled yet?
00:47:26.160 Do I get in
00:47:29.520 trouble for
00:47:29.940 giving reasonable
00:47:30.700 advice that
00:47:32.020 literally everybody
00:47:32.860 agrees with?
00:47:34.520 You all agree
00:47:35.440 with that.
00:47:35.940 Of course you
00:47:36.400 do.
00:47:37.120 But it's okay
00:47:37.860 because I said
00:47:38.460 I'm helping
00:47:39.280 black people.
00:47:40.760 Let me give
00:47:41.380 you my current
00:47:42.140 opinion on
00:47:43.560 things that are
00:47:44.960 good or bad
00:47:45.680 for black
00:47:46.100 people,
00:47:47.100 things that are
00:47:47.780 good or bad
00:47:48.420 for LGBTQ,
00:47:50.420 things that are
00:47:51.120 good or bad
00:47:51.760 for other
00:47:52.440 groups.
00:47:53.300 I don't care.
00:47:54.020 I think it's
00:47:56.300 stupid to look
00:47:57.260 at group
00:47:57.840 performance in
00:47:59.120 2023.
00:48:00.660 I'm all about
00:48:01.740 the individual.
00:48:03.500 So if there's
00:48:03.940 any individual
00:48:05.080 who's at risk
00:48:07.800 of mass
00:48:08.540 shootings and
00:48:09.220 wishes they
00:48:09.880 could find a
00:48:10.460 solution, I'd
00:48:11.860 be happy to
00:48:12.360 help.
00:48:13.160 I could
00:48:13.560 advise, maybe
00:48:14.960 if it's
00:48:15.240 somebody I
00:48:15.580 like, I
00:48:15.920 could help
00:48:16.100 them out
00:48:16.360 more directly.
00:48:16.920 So helping
00:48:19.280 individuals
00:48:20.080 succeed, I'm
00:48:22.240 all about
00:48:22.640 that.
00:48:23.360 And I'll
00:48:23.660 talk a lot
00:48:24.300 more about
00:48:24.720 that as the
00:48:25.240 year goes
00:48:25.540 by.
00:48:26.300 But I'm
00:48:27.100 kind of
00:48:27.540 retiring from
00:48:28.600 this group
00:48:29.420 is doing
00:48:29.800 better than
00:48:30.200 this group
00:48:30.700 and therefore
00:48:31.280 I don't
00:48:32.020 care.
00:48:33.460 Let me say
00:48:34.140 it directly.
00:48:35.300 I don't
00:48:35.700 care if
00:48:36.180 Albanians do
00:48:37.020 worse in
00:48:37.480 school than
00:48:38.160 Albanians.
00:48:40.260 I don't
00:48:40.880 care.
00:48:41.920 I don't
00:48:42.520 care at
00:48:42.760 all.
00:48:43.480 Not even
00:48:43.860 a little
00:48:44.080 bit.
00:48:45.200 I care about
00:48:45.900 every one
00:48:46.460 of those
00:48:46.740 individuals
00:48:47.260 though.
00:48:48.760 And I'm
00:48:49.160 pretty sure
00:48:49.520 that they
00:48:49.880 can all
00:48:50.280 succeed despite
00:48:51.920 racism if
00:48:52.860 they all do
00:48:53.340 the same
00:48:53.680 things that
00:48:54.120 everybody does.
00:48:55.300 So here's
00:48:55.740 the thing I
00:48:56.140 can't get
00:48:56.480 past.
00:48:57.940 No matter
00:48:58.500 who you
00:48:58.900 are, if
00:48:59.320 you do
00:48:59.560 the right
00:48:59.940 things in
00:49:00.480 America, you
00:49:01.600 get a good
00:49:02.040 outcome.
00:49:03.640 Stay out of
00:49:04.300 jail, stay
00:49:04.960 off drugs,
00:49:05.780 don't get
00:49:06.120 married too
00:49:06.600 early, don't
00:49:07.920 have a kid
00:49:08.340 and a
00:49:08.580 wedlock.
00:49:09.920 Easy
00:49:10.280 stuff.
00:49:11.240 Develop
00:49:11.560 some skills,
00:49:12.460 become useful.
00:49:14.300 Right?
00:49:14.940 There's nobody
00:49:15.620 who does
00:49:16.060 it a
00:49:16.320 different
00:49:16.540 way.
00:49:17.240 It's all
00:49:17.920 the same
00:49:18.320 way and
00:49:19.320 everybody has
00:49:19.920 access to
00:49:20.460 it.
00:49:21.320 So if you
00:49:21.720 tell me that
00:49:22.340 black Americans
00:49:23.140 are doing
00:49:23.740 poorly, I
00:49:25.200 don't care.
00:49:27.000 Let me say
00:49:27.700 it again.
00:49:28.780 If you
00:49:29.100 tell me black
00:49:29.720 Americans are
00:49:30.360 doing poorly, I
00:49:31.360 don't care at
00:49:32.780 all.
00:49:33.780 I used to
00:49:34.660 because I
00:49:35.460 used to think
00:49:35.880 that was the
00:49:36.340 right way to
00:49:36.820 approach the
00:49:37.580 issue.
00:49:38.260 Now I can
00:49:39.000 see that that
00:49:39.680 fails every
00:49:40.380 time because
00:49:41.500 you end up
00:49:41.920 just arguing
00:49:42.500 about statistics
00:49:43.340 and it's just
00:49:44.040 bullshit after a
00:49:44.820 while.
00:49:44.980 Well, because
00:49:45.940 you can make
00:49:46.340 any argument
00:49:46.980 with data and
00:49:48.520 when you're
00:49:48.800 talking about
00:49:49.320 a group of
00:49:50.000 people, it's
00:49:50.440 always a data
00:49:51.040 argument, right?
00:49:52.460 All data
00:49:53.060 arguments are
00:49:53.640 false in
00:49:55.260 2023.
00:49:56.900 So if there
00:49:57.820 were a way to
00:49:58.760 know the data
00:49:59.460 was accurate,
00:50:00.540 then maybe I'd
00:50:01.720 say, okay, maybe
00:50:02.600 you should look at
00:50:03.200 groups because
00:50:04.140 that data is
00:50:04.760 accurate.
00:50:05.740 And if you have
00:50:06.200 accurate data, you
00:50:07.040 might actually be
00:50:07.640 able to figure out
00:50:08.300 things that make
00:50:09.460 things better.
00:50:10.000 But if you
00:50:10.740 know you don't
00:50:11.200 have accurate
00:50:11.700 data and
00:50:12.200 never will, and
00:50:14.760 you know that
00:50:15.380 the way society
00:50:17.180 is organized is
00:50:18.560 that helping
00:50:19.060 classes of people
00:50:20.400 just creates more
00:50:21.280 problems, which it
00:50:22.680 does in 2023, then
00:50:24.980 it only makes sense
00:50:25.920 to shift your
00:50:26.940 frame from how
00:50:28.580 to help people
00:50:29.280 who have something
00:50:30.040 weird in common,
00:50:32.400 largely, yeah, it's
00:50:35.240 largely a conceptual
00:50:36.200 thing they have in
00:50:37.380 common.
00:50:38.180 Move from that
00:50:38.920 frame to, do I
00:50:40.280 have a neighbor
00:50:40.840 who needs a hand?
00:50:42.840 Is there somebody
00:50:43.380 I know who's a
00:50:44.820 victim of racism?
00:50:46.820 Could I do
00:50:47.380 something about it?
00:50:48.720 Could I teach them
00:50:49.560 how to be immune?
00:50:51.200 Could I hire them
00:50:52.540 and make sure that
00:50:53.320 they had a job and
00:50:54.060 they don't care so
00:50:54.700 much?
00:50:55.600 There are probably
00:50:56.020 a million ways you
00:50:56.740 can help an
00:50:57.180 individual, and I'm
00:50:58.840 all about that.
00:51:00.340 So if you're a
00:51:01.640 white individual and
00:51:02.540 you can help a
00:51:03.220 black individual or
00:51:04.320 any other kind of
00:51:05.000 individual, yeah, do
00:51:07.100 that.
00:51:07.620 Do that.
00:51:08.520 But if somebody
00:51:09.100 says my group is
00:51:10.160 doing poorly compared
00:51:11.380 to your group,
00:51:12.240 well, fuck them.
00:51:14.080 Just don't even get
00:51:15.320 interested.
00:51:16.640 Just say, yeah,
00:51:17.160 that's an interesting
00:51:17.920 philosophical point
00:51:19.580 that has no interest
00:51:20.460 to me.
00:51:22.020 You know, it doesn't
00:51:22.540 affect my life.
00:51:24.120 So that's the change
00:51:26.440 I'd like to see.
00:51:28.040 As we transition
00:51:29.260 from the, it's really
00:51:32.180 a scam, sort of a
00:51:33.920 scam to imagine that
00:51:34.920 you should compare
00:51:35.540 groups and then
00:51:36.500 make policy based
00:51:37.380 on that in 2023.
00:51:39.220 I do think
00:51:39.920 historically it
00:51:40.680 always made sense
00:51:41.580 because the problems
00:51:43.340 were the bigger
00:51:43.980 type, where the
00:51:45.320 discrimination was,
00:51:46.300 you know, built
00:51:46.840 into the legal
00:51:47.520 system, or it was
00:51:50.140 reverberated from the
00:51:51.600 past in such an
00:51:52.700 obvious way.
00:51:53.480 But once you get
00:51:54.340 to the point where
00:51:54.920 100% of individuals
00:51:56.800 can succeed, if they
00:51:59.560 just do the basic
00:52:00.360 things that everybody
00:52:01.160 who succeeds does,
00:52:03.120 then stop talking
00:52:04.340 about groups.
00:52:06.000 At that point, you're
00:52:07.220 just making things
00:52:07.940 worse.
00:52:09.040 So no interest, no
00:52:10.680 interest in what
00:52:12.540 white people or black
00:52:14.380 people or any other
00:52:15.580 group is doing.
00:52:18.120 So which part of that
00:52:19.380 do you think will be
00:52:20.020 taken out of context?
00:52:22.500 So somebody's already
00:52:23.880 clipping this, you know,
00:52:25.040 like, oh, I got that
00:52:26.520 part.
00:52:27.260 I got that part where
00:52:28.460 he said he doesn't care
00:52:29.260 about black people,
00:52:31.320 right?
00:52:31.800 Of course, that'll be
00:52:32.440 out of context.
00:52:33.840 Because I didn't say
00:52:34.780 that.
00:52:36.600 If you're listening, I
00:52:38.880 said I care deeply
00:52:39.820 about people.
00:52:41.960 People, like an
00:52:43.020 actual human.
00:52:44.000 I care about that.
00:52:45.220 I want them all to do
00:52:46.240 well.
00:52:47.180 I don't care about an
00:52:48.480 artificial grouping.
00:52:50.620 Oh, my artificial
00:52:51.600 grouping did better than
00:52:52.900 your artificial grouping.
00:52:54.200 I don't care.
00:52:56.500 How did any
00:52:57.300 individual do?
00:52:58.140 All right.
00:53:00.360 Too much on that.
00:53:04.700 Jonathan Turley,
00:53:06.080 continuing to be a
00:53:07.220 national treasure,
00:53:09.120 writing about legal
00:53:10.120 stuff.
00:53:10.840 The stuff he writes, I
00:53:12.200 just don't see anywhere
00:53:13.200 else.
00:53:14.700 I feel like all of his
00:53:16.440 takes are just better
00:53:17.380 than other people's
00:53:19.200 takes.
00:53:20.760 Are you having the
00:53:21.620 same impression?
00:53:23.480 Like, I don't know why
00:53:24.280 one person could
00:53:25.200 consistently say things
00:53:27.300 that when I read it,
00:53:28.180 you know, I'm not a
00:53:28.760 lawyer, so I'm doing
00:53:30.500 my best.
00:53:31.620 But when he talks, I
00:53:33.840 always say, well, that
00:53:34.860 sounds totally right.
00:53:36.200 That's exactly how you
00:53:37.220 should look at this
00:53:37.800 thing.
00:53:38.740 So he was talking
00:53:39.540 about Democrat
00:53:41.280 Representative Goldman,
00:53:43.360 who was trying to
00:53:45.480 make the Hunter Biden
00:53:47.780 whistleblower from the
00:53:49.900 IRS.
00:53:51.080 He was trying to, you
00:53:52.200 know, take the piss out
00:53:53.000 of him and degrade his
00:53:54.800 argument.
00:53:55.080 So there's a
00:53:56.240 whistleblower who
00:53:58.000 says that the, named
00:54:00.060 Shapley, who says that
00:54:01.220 the Hunter Biden
00:54:03.120 investigations were
00:54:04.580 impeded and slow
00:54:06.040 walked.
00:54:06.600 And he gives specific
00:54:07.580 examples of how it was
00:54:09.380 impeded and, you know,
00:54:10.960 what was slowed down.
00:54:12.540 And it's very compelling,
00:54:14.420 right?
00:54:14.760 It's one person's
00:54:15.580 testimony, but it's
00:54:16.940 under oath.
00:54:18.400 He's public.
00:54:19.820 And he was exactly the
00:54:21.540 right person to see it
00:54:22.960 firsthand.
00:54:23.400 So it's firsthand
00:54:25.220 under oath.
00:54:28.180 That's pretty strong.
00:54:30.160 Right?
00:54:30.920 Yeah.
00:54:31.820 That's pretty strong.
00:54:33.160 And also, I believe,
00:54:34.620 backed up by other
00:54:36.360 witnesses.
00:54:37.120 Can somebody give me a
00:54:37.880 fact check on that?
00:54:39.460 The latest whistleblower,
00:54:41.380 Shapley or Shapley, is it
00:54:44.460 not true that we have
00:54:45.380 other public whistleblowers
00:54:47.000 who say the same thing?
00:54:48.500 There's more than one,
00:54:49.600 right?
00:54:49.800 Is that true?
00:54:53.260 Yeah.
00:54:53.740 Okay.
00:54:54.120 I'm getting confirmation.
00:54:55.080 There's more than one.
00:54:55.960 All right.
00:54:56.220 So you're now at the
00:54:57.760 highest level of
00:54:59.020 credibility.
00:55:00.400 The highest level.
00:55:02.200 People who sought
00:55:03.060 themselves, have the
00:55:04.780 same story, put their
00:55:06.600 own skin in the game,
00:55:08.160 became whistleblowers.
00:55:09.140 This is not good for
00:55:10.040 them.
00:55:10.900 They're not going to
00:55:11.540 benefit from this.
00:55:13.120 And did it publicly
00:55:14.280 in front of the world.
00:55:17.420 Can you beat that?
00:55:18.220 That's pretty serious.
00:55:23.000 But here's what Jonathan
00:55:25.640 totally points out.
00:55:27.140 So Goldman was trying to
00:55:28.400 get to the fact that
00:55:29.280 whatever Hunter did
00:55:30.460 business-wise, there was
00:55:33.260 no evidence that he had
00:55:34.300 talked to his father.
00:55:36.640 So Goldman is trying to
00:55:38.060 establish in our public's
00:55:39.440 mind that, yeah, maybe
00:55:41.300 Hunter did some stuff,
00:55:42.660 but his father wasn't
00:55:43.740 aware of the business
00:55:44.540 dealings part of it.
00:55:45.540 And then he asked that
00:55:47.700 question, and Shapley
00:55:48.960 tells him that, no,
00:55:52.580 actually, we do have
00:55:53.760 proof that the father
00:55:54.880 knew about it.
00:55:56.620 He had very specific
00:55:57.720 evidence of the father
00:56:00.380 knowing about at least
00:56:01.260 some of the business
00:56:01.960 deals, which Joe Biden
00:56:04.620 continues to deny, as
00:56:07.280 Turley points out.
00:56:08.480 And what Turley was
00:56:11.700 mocking Goldman for
00:56:12.980 was, you know, you
00:56:15.460 probably know this, the
00:56:16.400 lawyer kind of code or
00:56:19.320 rule is that you never
00:56:20.460 ask a question in court
00:56:21.860 if you don't know the
00:56:23.340 answer.
00:56:24.260 Have you heard that?
00:56:25.420 It's like the number one
00:56:26.400 rule of being a lawyer.
00:56:28.620 Don't ask that question if
00:56:29.960 you don't know what the
00:56:30.680 answer's going to be.
00:56:31.820 Because he asked the
00:56:32.740 question thinking it would
00:56:33.600 go his way, and it turned
00:56:35.360 down to be the most
00:56:36.480 damning thing for Joe
00:56:37.920 Biden in the history of
00:56:39.420 the Republic.
00:56:40.900 For the first time, a
00:56:43.560 witness under oath, who
00:56:46.100 was an eyewitness and had
00:56:47.800 other people watching, who
00:56:49.120 agree, said that Joe
00:56:51.380 Biden lied, and he was
00:56:53.120 aware of these dealings.
00:56:54.740 It's like the biggest
00:56:55.420 thing in the world, and
00:56:56.980 Representative Goldman is
00:56:58.700 the one who surfaced it,
00:57:00.400 and he was trying to hide
00:57:02.040 it.
00:57:02.680 So the guy trying to hide
00:57:03.700 it is the one who surfaced
00:57:04.680 it and probably blew the
00:57:05.700 water.
00:57:06.700 So Jonathan Turley, at the
00:57:09.640 end of his thread, he's
00:57:10.560 talking about this.
00:57:11.980 He puts a picture of
00:57:13.260 Dresden.
00:57:15.680 Now, Dresden after World
00:57:18.580 War II.
00:57:21.160 Now, if you don't know the
00:57:22.340 reference, of course, this
00:57:23.880 isn't funny, but Dresden was
00:57:26.140 a German city that was
00:57:27.280 firebombed into complete
00:57:29.040 ruination.
00:57:29.840 It was just burned until it
00:57:31.920 was just rubble, the whole
00:57:33.140 city.
00:57:34.460 And that was Turley's
00:57:38.920 interpretation of the
00:57:40.300 Democrats' case, that
00:57:43.260 Goldman had turned their own
00:57:44.760 case into Dresden.
00:57:47.400 It was good writing.
00:57:49.060 So good writing, good
00:57:50.480 imagery.
00:57:52.140 I love Turley.
00:57:54.420 All right, Apple says they're
00:57:55.420 coming out with their own
00:57:56.220 AI.
00:57:59.180 No surprise.
00:58:01.280 One could assume that they're a
00:58:02.680 little late, but they're
00:58:03.820 Apple.
00:58:04.720 So, you know, Apple can hire the
00:58:06.360 best and catch up pretty
00:58:08.940 quickly, I would think.
00:58:09.820 But what do you think about the
00:58:12.640 fact that this would be, in my
00:58:14.120 opinion, the first big thing
00:58:16.220 since Jobs?
00:58:18.420 There was the Apple Watch, and I
00:58:20.520 guess that's successful, but it's
00:58:22.120 not like, you know, it's not like
00:58:23.700 iPhone's successful, but it's
00:58:25.860 successful.
00:58:27.140 So that was the best they've done
00:58:28.620 since Jobs is the watch.
00:58:32.460 But now they're going to do AI.
00:58:35.600 Don't you think AI would disrupt
00:58:37.540 their entire business model?
00:58:40.000 Like, I don't even know if the
00:58:41.020 App Store makes sense, if you
00:58:42.620 have AI, if it's the right kind.
00:58:44.800 So, I think this is such a big
00:58:48.500 moment for Apple that I don't
00:58:51.920 know if they have the right
00:58:52.800 people there, but we'll find
00:58:54.560 out.
00:58:55.620 I mean, Jobs picked Tim Cook.
00:58:58.280 So, I mean, Jobs picked him, so
00:59:00.220 he must know something that I
00:59:01.280 don't know.
00:59:02.080 But we'll see if Apple can pull
00:59:04.980 off turning AI into
00:59:07.460 something that you all want
00:59:08.760 without destroying their own
00:59:10.600 company.
00:59:12.460 Because it looks like it would
00:59:13.520 cannibalize the iPhone, but I
00:59:14.980 don't know.
00:59:16.220 And when I say that, I mean that
00:59:17.740 the whole iPhone ecosystem is
00:59:20.640 that third parties make apps, and
00:59:22.880 you buy the apps and use them on
00:59:24.220 the phone.
00:59:24.940 But I think AI is going to make
00:59:26.560 apps no longer necessary.
00:59:30.380 Because in theory, you could just
00:59:31.740 tell your AI to become any app you
00:59:33.720 wanted.
00:59:34.520 It would just become it on the
00:59:36.000 fly.
00:59:36.560 It could code itself into that
00:59:38.260 app.
00:59:40.700 The things it couldn't do is maybe
00:59:42.840 do a dating app, because that's
00:59:44.660 more about the network effect.
00:59:46.240 So there might be some network
00:59:47.280 effects it can't copy.
00:59:49.000 But it could, if you didn't have an
00:59:51.200 app on your phone for math, you
00:59:53.760 didn't have a calculator, you could
00:59:55.700 just say to the AI, all right, give
00:59:57.720 me a calculator.
00:59:59.280 And it codes it and presents it on
01:00:01.300 screen just because you wanted it.
01:00:03.560 Because that would be like an easy
01:00:05.940 thing to code in real time.
01:00:07.740 So it would just appear, but there
01:00:09.280 would be no app.
01:00:10.960 Likewise, if you wanted to do a
01:00:12.200 spreadsheet, you just say, all right,
01:00:15.660 do my budget.
01:00:18.220 And a spreadsheet would appear, but it
01:00:20.580 would have no app for a spreadsheet.
01:00:22.400 It would just know that that's what
01:00:23.540 you wanted.
01:00:24.260 It would sort of code it on the fly
01:00:25.820 and keep it live.
01:00:27.000 So for anything that doesn't have a
01:00:29.680 network effect, you know, say
01:00:31.400 LinkedIn, something like that, I
01:00:33.340 would think those apps will just go
01:00:34.580 away.
01:00:36.760 So what's that due to their whole
01:00:38.000 business model?
01:00:40.180 I don't know.
01:00:41.280 So that's the sort of thing I think
01:00:42.560 Steve Jobs might have a chance of
01:00:44.440 figuring out, but maybe an Apple
01:00:47.320 corporate, you know, just keeping the
01:00:49.940 model moving kind of people, maybe
01:00:52.200 not the right people, but we'll find
01:00:54.180 out.
01:00:54.400 Now, I'm, for the longest time, I've
01:00:57.720 been confused as to why the S-I-R-I
01:01:01.820 product on the iPhone, and I'm
01:01:04.600 spelling it so I don't trigger your
01:01:06.200 phones, I've been wondering why it's
01:01:08.680 so bad.
01:01:10.780 Like, it's really bad.
01:01:14.080 I've been barely, the only thing I
01:01:16.060 can use it for successfully is
01:01:17.980 setting my alarm.
01:01:20.700 Over time, I used to try to use it a
01:01:22.760 lot because I thought, you know,
01:01:24.400 I'd get the hang of it, and it would
01:01:26.260 maybe understand me better, or I would
01:01:29.040 give the better commands, and it would
01:01:30.520 just get better over time, but it got
01:01:32.340 worse.
01:01:33.840 I got to the point where the only thing
01:01:35.680 I'm willing to do is set my alarm or my
01:01:37.540 timer, basically.
01:01:38.680 That's it.
01:01:39.300 Everything else, I assume it's going to
01:01:40.640 take 15 tries, and it's not going to
01:01:42.760 understand me.
01:01:44.240 You ever try sending a voice text?
01:01:47.860 It's just a nightmare, because there's
01:01:52.020 writing stuff that you didn't want it
01:01:53.360 to write, and then you're like, oh, God,
01:01:54.920 what do I do?
01:01:57.760 Yeah, timer, that's about it.
01:01:59.220 All right, ladies and gentlemen, that
01:02:04.820 concludes my amazing presentation for the
01:02:08.720 day.
01:02:09.340 Best live stream you've ever seen in your
01:02:11.000 whole life.
01:02:11.600 Everybody's saying it.
01:02:13.080 Everybody's saying it.
01:02:14.540 Is there anything I missed?
01:02:17.120 Proposed UAP disclosure?
01:02:18.760 I have no interest in the UFO stuff, because
01:02:23.300 it's not real.
01:02:25.380 So, no, I'm not interested in a new
01:02:27.640 hearing about a thing that isn't real.
01:02:31.820 Photographs?
01:02:33.420 Or it's not real.
01:02:35.140 Don't give me your grainy photographs of
01:02:37.160 a tic-tac and a fly on your camera.
01:02:41.240 No, don't care.
01:02:44.880 All right, use AI to resurrect Steve
01:02:47.740 Chops.
01:02:49.180 That would be funny.
01:02:53.320 RFK is testifying on C-SPAN.
01:02:55.840 About what?
01:02:56.720 Big pharma?
01:03:01.420 Oh, threads.
01:03:03.520 Have you spent any time on threads?
01:03:07.600 How many of you, let me ask it this way.
01:03:10.520 How many of you are using threads more
01:03:14.280 today than you were last week?
01:03:16.500 So, if you're using it, is there
01:03:18.960 anybody who's using it more today
01:03:20.820 than last week?
01:03:25.780 I stopped even thinking I have it.
01:03:28.740 I actually forgot I had it.
01:03:31.320 It's completely
01:03:32.240 completely off my radar.
01:03:36.740 I thought about using it just to promote
01:03:40.180 things on Twitter, but I don't have
01:03:42.440 enough followers, so there's no point in
01:03:43.900 doing that either.
01:03:45.160 The one thing I thought I might use it for,
01:03:47.080 just promoting my other things, it's not
01:03:49.280 even that.
01:03:51.100 Oh, I knew what I was going to do.
01:03:54.200 All right, I just want to be a jerk.
01:03:56.520 For entertainment purposes.
01:03:59.980 All right, I'm going to open threads.
01:04:02.740 Now, I told you that when I brought over the
01:04:04.460 people I follow from Instagram, I did not get
01:04:08.680 the Illuminati, but rather I got people who
01:04:11.860 look good in pictures.
01:04:13.240 But then they came over here and they started
01:04:15.260 tweeting.
01:04:15.620 So I'm going to read you some of the
01:04:21.800 insightful tweets.
01:04:24.980 All right, here's one.
01:04:26.040 So here's the kind of thinker I was bringing
01:04:29.260 over from Instagram.
01:04:31.320 I won't tell you who, it's just some
01:04:33.520 attractive person.
01:04:35.660 Here's a Threads post.
01:04:38.600 Fun fact, I love riding bikes.
01:04:41.540 What's a hobby you love to do?
01:04:45.620 So I'm glad I signed up for Threads because
01:04:47.760 I would have missed that one.
01:04:48.780 I would have missed that one.
01:04:49.440 But there are others.
01:04:51.840 Actually, Jordan Peterson's tweeting there,
01:04:53.840 so some of these actually make sense.
01:04:57.520 Or here's another one from one of the
01:04:59.840 influencers from Instagram over on Threads.
01:05:02.900 When in doubt, eat chicken and rice.
01:05:07.400 Okay.
01:05:08.600 When in doubt, eat chicken and rice.
01:05:10.360 That's a good post.
01:05:11.700 Here's another one.
01:05:12.460 Straight from the airport to the gym,
01:05:17.080 just hitting the essentials today to tackle
01:05:19.220 the full leg day after this week.
01:05:21.180 Well, you know, I woke up this morning and I
01:05:22.780 was wondering about this influencer's leg day.
01:05:25.720 I was like, what day of the week is leg day?
01:05:28.940 And do you do it on the way back from the
01:05:31.220 airport?
01:05:33.520 This is Threads.
01:05:35.760 That's Threads.
01:05:37.100 Now, does anybody have the same experience?
01:05:38.640 You go to Threads and it's just influencers who
01:05:41.760 can't make sentences?
01:05:44.800 All right.
01:05:45.000 Now, I'm going to do the same thing.
01:05:47.060 I'm going to go to Twitter.
01:05:50.960 This will be a biased presentation.
01:05:54.500 All right.
01:05:54.740 So I'm just going to pick just a random tweet.
01:05:57.640 All right.
01:05:58.580 I'll just pick a random tweet on Twitter.
01:06:00.380 Um, AI progress doesn't sleep at night.
01:06:06.540 New information about state-of-the-art speech
01:06:08.780 recognition.
01:06:10.500 Um, something about Ron DeSantis, you know,
01:06:15.260 blah, blah, blah.
01:06:15.900 It was good stuff.
01:06:17.180 Uh, something about the century and records of,
01:06:21.680 you know, heat records.
01:06:23.300 Basically, it's all fun stuff.
01:06:26.000 It's all like really smart people saying really
01:06:29.620 smart stuff all day long on Twitter.
01:06:32.620 And I go to Threads.
01:06:33.920 It's just, it's, it's all your C-plus students
01:06:37.360 who have been forced to write things
01:06:39.900 and they're not happy about it.
01:06:42.580 That's what it feels like.
01:06:43.720 It feels like Threads is all the C-plus students.
01:06:48.040 Uh, what?
01:06:52.700 Do you see his union station is empty?
01:06:54.700 Okay.
01:06:59.620 That can't be real.
01:07:05.640 That doesn't feel real.
01:07:07.240 I don't know what that's about.
01:07:08.960 All right.
01:07:10.280 Um, that's all I got for you today.
01:07:13.100 And I will go, um,
01:07:16.320 would you trust a picture of a, uh, UFO
01:07:18.640 if somebody said they saw it?
01:07:20.360 No.
01:07:22.000 No.
01:07:23.280 No, I wouldn't.
01:07:24.740 All right.
