good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization it's called
00:00:23.160
coffee with scott adams and i think it's uh fair to say you've never had a better time
00:00:27.440
and just wait to see how much better it gets it's gonna be crazy crazy if you'd like to take it up
00:00:36.260
a level that nobody's ever seen all you need is a cup or mug or a glass a tank or gel sistine a
00:00:41.380
canteen jug or flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join
00:00:48.560
me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day thing makes everything better
00:00:52.240
it's called a simultaneous sip it happens now go
00:00:54.140
you know i shouldn't tell you this before i actually do it but yesterday i uh wrote a
00:01:08.680
gigantic hit song in my head i know i know i know what you're thinking a lot of people try to write
00:01:17.100
songs don't they but has anybody ever written a song using hypnosis uh i'll bet not and i realized
00:01:28.460
that i could do a song that would have the stickiest hook in the world and that i could build it around
00:01:36.440
a hypnotic induction so that while you were listening to the song you would feel a tingle
00:01:42.000
you would actually physically feel the song and so i thought if i write that song it's going to be
00:01:48.040
the biggest hit in the entire world so i'm going to work on that later and and let me confess i don't
00:01:55.580
have any songwriting talents but i can write lyrics that will be hypnotic so i'm going to do that
00:02:02.540
i'll add a drum beat to it you'll love it well i saw a story that uh jimmy felon is getting some
00:02:08.380
heat from his staff for being a hard place to work
00:02:12.620
here's what you need to know about this story about jimmy felon and his staff
00:02:21.040
it's about a public figure that's all you need to know once i tell you it's about a public figure
00:02:28.940
you can be absolutely sure it's fake now it doesn't mean that none of the it doesn't mean that
00:02:35.120
every allegation is fake but it's so out of context that it's useless right so when you see
00:02:43.620
something like that the staff says somebody did something do you think it was the happy staff
00:02:49.420
members who were saying that do you think it's every one of them every one of them having the
00:02:53.940
same experience do you think it's like every other workplace in the world where there are some
00:03:00.580
people who believe that he's insulting them when he's just sort of living i don't know no way to
00:03:07.500
know what's happening but i will tell you for sure you shouldn't believe anything about the story
00:03:11.280
you shouldn't believe his version and you definitely shouldn't believe his staff it's just something
00:03:16.940
that happened that you don't know about that should be the story hey something happened and there's
00:03:22.920
no way you'll ever know what it was that's it that's the whole story well i saw a clip of russell
00:03:30.560
brand going full-throated in his uh appreciation and endorsement of trump specifically over the
00:03:38.880
ukraine war not um not about other things but it's funny watching russell brand just say this directly
00:03:45.180
as you possibly can he's the only one who's talking about the war correctly i don't think that's
00:03:50.140
right i think you know vivek and some others are talking about it uh correctly but uh certainly
00:03:56.140
trump's the biggest you know the loudest voice and we'll see if that makes any of it it's just i think
00:04:06.260
it's uh it's interesting when you see somebody come that far come all the way from you know being
00:04:14.400
left-leaning to you know being fully full-throated support of trump on the biggest issue which is the war
00:04:22.540
uh bobo dodo wants to make sure that i'm bad at um at pattern recognition so let me help you with your
00:04:37.660
pattern recognition um let's see all lawyers went to college almost almost every lawyer went to college
00:04:47.700
all right so everything else you said is dumb as fuck because some people like school and then they
00:04:57.360
do well because they go to school so when people do well because they go to school that's not a massive
00:05:04.360
jewish plot have you heard about the massive vietnamese american plot where they go to school
00:05:13.460
and get good grades probably because they want vietnam to run the world is that what you think
00:05:19.440
all right well uh i'm just going to make these people go away because i want you to realize how
00:05:29.820
stupid you are before you go away it your your entire worldview is based on being bad at pattern
00:05:36.560
recognition the pattern recognition is not that some successful people are jewish that's the wrong
00:05:43.800
pattern it's the people who valued education are successful how are you missing that like how is that not
00:05:52.300
really really obvious to you like how how anti-semitic do you have to be before you think the pattern is
00:05:58.220
that they're jewish anyway all right uh so i guess the governor of new mexico is suspending the second
00:06:10.780
amendment what i think this is actually happening the governor of new mexico is going to have a 30-day
00:06:18.980
ban on open and concealed uh carrying of guns um which a lot of people say is a violation of the
00:06:27.540
second amendment i'm sure she would say blah blah blah it's not but uh i think this is going to cause a
00:06:36.240
little uh consternation i wouldn't trust a 30-day ban on anything would you who would trust a 30-day ban
00:06:44.040
on guns no no there will be no 30-day bans on guns if the public has anything to say about it
00:06:54.160
yeah we'll see where that goes uh this is almost almost beyond belief and elon musk is weighed into this
00:07:04.120
but the california assembly they voted in favor of this new bill that would uh essentially
00:07:12.300
say that the parents have to affirm the gender of the child so if the child says they're a different
00:07:19.680
gender than the parent the parent has to agree and if they don't they'll lose custody they could lose
00:07:25.580
custody so if there's a divorce the one who affirms that the child knows what their gender is
00:07:35.000
that is demonic yeah you know i've been resisting the people who say that it's actually evil but what
00:07:47.360
is this what the hell is this how in the world is this political it's not political and it's not
00:07:54.340
even medical it's not rational medical political it's not even wrong it's just evil
00:08:01.440
uh so you know musk is uh fighting fighting against that i think he said he would move the
00:08:11.580
company his company is out of california he's got you know there's one near me so there's a big
00:08:17.720
tesla facility sort of bicycle distance in that direction so there's a lot of facilities here
00:08:23.440
um so he's making some threats he's also elon musk is also um taking legal action against california
00:08:32.500
because california wants a law that mandates the social media platforms disclose their content
00:08:40.020
removal policies especially about hate speech and the way elon musk is interpreting this
00:08:46.580
is that things which would be allowed under free speech would possibly not be allowed in california
00:08:54.160
so so california wants to you know violate the constitution according to that view and new
00:09:03.600
mexico wants to violate the constitution according to guns and if you notice it's always democrats
00:09:10.280
violating the constitution it feels like and when the republicans do it it's fake we'll talk about
00:09:17.580
that later when republicans are accused of doing it it's not even real but it looks like it's happening
00:09:24.280
on both sides if you didn't know any better all right here's my segment i call fake news on fake science
00:09:33.320
and you don't even have to read the science i'm going to tell you the headline of this study and you tell
00:09:40.420
me if you would believe anything it says just the headline kids do better in school when they can see
00:09:47.200
trees kids do better in school when they can see trees therefore adding trees to any environment
00:09:55.980
would get you a better result do you think that anything else might be correlated with the trees
00:10:05.720
is there anything else hmm is there any other variable that would be highly correlated with trees
00:10:13.740
probably probably everything yeah probably everything is correlated with whether you have trees
00:10:21.240
trees like your income you know the demographics the you know the you know basically everything
00:10:28.320
you know health in general so i wouldn't even bother reading that report
00:10:33.280
um here's another one why scientists cannot be uh cannot be trusted with uh numbers scientists are good
00:10:42.360
until they try to do math with money so there's a new study that says that nuclear power is way too
00:10:50.700
expensive now how far did i have to dig into it to find out what they did wrong oh not very far
00:11:00.320
like it was like i don't know first sentence or something but basically they take the approach
00:11:06.240
that the way nuclear has always been built in the past which is primarily through the extreme
00:11:13.680
reluctance of the government and environmental groups that if that same situation persisted
00:11:20.580
where people such as the people probably writing this report when if you have immense uh irrational
00:11:31.800
guess what you know what else would fall into that category absolutely everything you could pick any
00:11:41.360
any industry randomly and say all right let's take this industry with that was doing fine
00:11:46.120
but we're going to put extreme extreme uh political public pressure on it to not do anything and not
00:11:54.080
produce a product and we'll put everything on it we'll make we'll make them take 20 years to produce
00:11:59.540
one unit of whatever their product is how would that industry look economically it would look pretty bad
00:12:05.700
it would look pretty bad how about an industry where somebody decided they were going to make a consumer
00:12:11.260
product but everyone would be different so they could never get any economies of scale
00:12:18.220
that wouldn't look like a good idea would it but suppose you looked at any industry that had
00:12:26.140
low barriers because the government was being helpful instead of you know being bad and that the public
00:12:33.220
wasn't pushing on them and that you can make everyone the same in that case good economics
00:12:39.400
so when people study the economics and i think rfk jr has this problem as well when you study the
00:12:46.700
economics of nuclear if you're studying how it was done in the past you're not really studying the
00:12:54.080
economics of nuclear you get that right because we wouldn't do it that way and if we tried to do it
00:13:01.520
that way that would in fact be a mistake you know it probably would be a mistake to try to build a new
00:13:06.680
nuclear plant with the current set of constraints so change the constraints because the constraints
00:13:14.740
of the problem not not the economics of the business if we had a government which could
00:13:21.040
remove the constraints or maybe have you know one way to do it would be have a federal set of
00:13:27.980
requirements and then approve let's say a modular set of components so that anybody who does these
00:13:35.460
same modular pieces you know the important parts will get pretty much automatic approval because it's
00:13:42.280
sort of pre-approved now do you think that they studied a world in which the government had pre-approved
00:13:48.680
some some some designs so that everybody could just use them of course not of course they didn't
00:13:56.680
so anytime you see a a political political item where somebody studied the math and said oh this won't
00:14:06.620
pencil out they're never doing it right the a a public news item about the economics of something
00:14:15.880
probably never true probably never because they're all motivated you know all these reports are
00:14:22.500
why are you promoting conspiracy theories in all caps why are you drinking for lunch i would ask you in
00:14:32.940
here's a fog of war update how often do i tell you that if the topic is war the first report is false
00:14:43.640
so this is about uh um starlink and elon musk whether or not he turned off skylink when the
00:14:54.180
ukrainians were planning an attack now apparently this was not recent this was a year ago or whatever
00:14:59.980
it was and the ukrainians were going to send their drone fleet to sink the entire russian or a lot of it
00:15:07.900
in port and they they here's the part that we didn't know the ukrainians thought they had coverage
00:15:16.360
so if you take that part out the story is different and that's the part we just learned
00:15:21.020
so they thought they had coverage so they started to mount an attack which they were really excited
00:15:26.980
about only to realize they didn't and then they asked they asked elon to turn on that portion
00:15:33.760
and he said um i'm not going to be part of a major attack on russia
00:15:38.180
which i believe was the right call that they basically asked him to be a combatant essentially
00:15:47.060
uh part of the attack and i i think he wisely said well maybe i could be part of the defense
00:15:55.600
but i'm not going to be part of an attack on you know what looks like russia proper to russia
00:16:00.660
so so he's in trouble for that he's in trouble for everything else and um could do you think it
00:16:11.600
would be fair to say at this point that the democrats are trying to put elon musk in jail
00:16:16.280
that's what it looks like i feel like they're trying to put him in jail like actually in jail
00:16:22.460
and they don't and it looks like they don't care what what they use to do it
00:16:26.960
that's what it looks like so uh i think in these cases you can say that that it's exactly what it looks
00:16:36.500
like so whenever there is a lack of transparency just assume it's exactly what it looks like and that's
00:16:44.040
exactly what it looks like it looks like republicans should be hunted in a variety of ways
00:16:48.640
and this is more of that he's the big whale he's the moby dick so to speak um
00:16:56.700
all right so there's a report that uh prosecutor fanny willis uh is corrupt so
00:17:09.860
so so so some of the cases you know the january 6 cases have to do with these so-called fake electors
00:17:19.380
now if somebody was going to pretend they were the legitimate electors that would look pretty bad
00:17:27.200
wouldn't it now turns out that's not the case but it would look really bad if somebody was going to
00:17:34.500
pretend they were the legitimate electors and then say oh we really won and we're the legitimate ones
00:17:40.540
and then just take over the country that that way so it turns out that fanny had in her possession
00:17:47.180
documents that show that the people who were doing the so-called fake elector thing
00:17:53.280
knew that they were not real electors and and their intentions clearly stated were that they were not going
00:18:01.960
to be fake electors they were going to be sort of uh like backup in case just to hold the right
00:18:08.660
in other words it was a placeholder in case needed they were they were not meant to be replacements they
00:18:16.680
were alternates an alternate is somebody if things go the way you want them to they could be your
00:18:22.960
alternate they were not a replacement for a replacement for would look like an insurrection
00:18:28.720
alternates while you sort out what's real looks like just being prepared for all outcomes
00:18:34.940
it turns out that fanny had documents that showed that the so-called fake electors were always meant
00:18:42.040
to be alternates and they said in direct words they were not trying to be the replacements directly
00:18:47.540
so they're being charged with the thing that the documents clearly show they were not trying to do
00:18:55.320
they were trying to do something legal and not that thing they're being charged with and so she
00:19:01.460
she apparently didn't talk about it or suppressed it so that you wouldn't know that it's obvious
00:19:08.220
they're innocent it's obvious they're innocent like super super obvious they're innocent and decided
00:19:14.360
just not to tell you now at what point do you have a prosecutor arrested shouldn't she be arrested for
00:19:22.560
that if it's known that she knew that this was uh would have freed them immediately and she suppressed
00:19:30.540
it shouldn't she be in jail already she should be in jail right am i talking like a partisan or is
00:19:39.240
that just common sense so i guess i guess i'll put the fog of war standard on this one as well
00:19:45.700
it could be that she has a reason for what she did i haven't heard her reason yet but based on the
00:19:54.960
based on what we've seen so far it would look like she's just a criminal
00:19:59.240
that's what it looks like it looks like she's just a criminal
00:20:07.420
you know i tweeted this uh yesterday but i liked it so much i'm going to read it
00:20:12.900
that when republicans are wrong about anything that's the whole story oh they're wrong you know
00:20:22.200
when it happens nobody nobody's right all the time right but when republicans are wrong they're just
00:20:26.600
sort of wrong there's nothing else to say but when democrats are wrong most of the time it's because
00:20:34.940
their own team ran a sophisticated op to brainwash them but here's the thing i've never met a democrat
00:20:43.400
who's aware of that have you i've never met a democrat who is aware that their own team runs
00:20:51.340
serial hoaxes on them you know they don't work as well on the republicans because republicans know
00:20:58.140
what's happening but the democrats seem to be completely unaware that their team is running
00:21:04.000
ops on them that's not happening on the republican side is it or or am i so deeply into my own bubble
00:21:13.380
that i can't see it's happening on both sides but to me it looks like it only happens on one side
00:21:18.960
and the reason would be that only one side controls enough of the media that you can come up with an op
00:21:26.320
that the media will support right if the if the republicans tried to come up with that kind of
00:21:33.160
an op it would live in just the democrat world and and even some of them would reject it right
00:21:40.220
so there'd be no media to support it yeah so and but think about the fact that you've never met a
00:21:48.520
democrat who's aware that their own team runs ops on them all the time it's non-stop
00:21:55.620
just think about that the the the amazing success of these this this brainwashing is that they don't
00:22:04.020
know what's happening at all it's really it's impressive in its own way speaking of uh brainwashing
00:22:13.660
i like to give you examples of what i call tells for cognitive dissonance meaning that there are some
00:22:20.820
people some things that people do automatically when you catch them in cognitive dissonance
00:22:25.160
one is the so tell where you say sky is blue and let's say they always believed it wasn't and they
00:22:33.700
don't want to be embarrassed by finding out it really is they'll say so you're saying everything in the
00:22:39.940
world is blue and you go what what everything that everything that came after that word so
00:22:48.100
was ridiculous so you're saying that nobody else can have free speech no no i we're not even talking
00:22:57.360
about that so you're trying to change the subject no no i'm not saying you know so you can't talk to
00:23:04.340
anybody who does the so as soon as you hear the word so you can stop the conversation that which is
00:23:11.860
what i do i go well there's the so tell so we're done here all right another one is word salad
00:23:18.660
right word salad oh before i get to that one another one is uh what i call the well
00:23:25.100
the repeating well you you've seen it when you debunk any of the hoaxes it's like this is true
00:23:33.140
well here's some evidence showing it's not true well okay maybe that's not true but this is true
00:23:37.940
well here's some evidence showing that's not true okay maybe those things aren't true but here's some
00:23:43.400
evidence showing a third thing's true here's some evidence showing it's not what do they do then
00:23:48.300
start at the top as if you'd never discussed it always so that so if they go down the well
00:23:57.260
and you've debunked it all and then they just start at the top like you hadn't conversed
00:24:01.540
that's that's cognitive dissonance but my favorite is the word salad word salad it's a sentence that
00:24:10.440
might make sense in a grammar sense but if you looked at it in in context you'd say
00:24:17.380
uh what so let me give you one so as you know uh everybody who's observing except sam harris knows
00:24:27.760
that he's experiencing some kind of mental uh phenomenon it looks like cognitive dissonance
00:24:35.140
to anybody who's studied it but here's what he said that to me it looks like word salad
00:24:41.380
so he's talking about uh january 6 and trump and how dangerous trump is right so here's a sentence
00:24:50.020
he actually spoke to russell brand quote that was such a dangerous desecration of our political landscape
00:24:56.860
that i should think it should make it impossible to support trump so you saw about january 6 that was
00:25:04.820
such a dangerous desecration of our political landscape that i think it should make it impossible
00:25:10.860
to support trump just look at that sentence do i do even say need to say more things that have real
00:25:20.520
problems you can stay in a sentence that everybody understands and agrees with uh increasing the
00:25:27.760
amount of money that we print will uh will increase inflation was that word salad no no the war in ukraine
00:25:37.200
risks um escalating to a nuclear war was that word salad you all understood that right because that's a real
00:25:48.300
opinion right um children should not be making gender choices because their brains are not developed did
00:25:58.000
everybody understand that i think you did right you could disagree but you understood the point
00:26:04.080
or how about somebody says i disagree with abortion because in my opinion it's a living thing and life is
00:26:12.020
precious is anybody confused no you're not confused about that at all not at all right were the
00:26:20.800
elections uh rigged or not rigged some say rigged they give their reasons some say not rigged they give
00:26:28.960
the reasons is anybody confused no no you could everything that's a real opinion about a real thing
00:26:36.900
can be expressed in very simple words if you end up with a dangerous desecration of our political
00:26:45.560
landscape that means you're you're completely in a theoretical word-based world in which you're trying to make
00:26:53.740
words fit together to match your preconceived opinion yeah this is classic word salad um and everybody except sam harris
00:27:04.480
would be aware of that and if he heard me describe it which he probably won't because i don't think he pays
00:27:09.840
attention to social media but if he heard me describe it would say my god no i have real reasons let me tell you
00:27:17.740
the good reasons too so it's always the thing with cognitive dissonance is that the person who's
00:27:24.100
experiencing it is the only one who can't have any vision on whether it's happening by definition
00:27:30.400
they're the ones who don't know so that's my opinion on that
00:27:35.740
so here's a uh tweet that i made yesterday right pretty pretty early after i got off uh uh live stream
00:27:51.700
um and i'm gonna give it's sort of a three-parter and i said this i said it's mind-boggling that half
00:28:00.440
the country believes trespassing in one building is how you conquer a superpower
00:28:05.420
because the news said so and then i said it's almost as incredible as the fact that no one has
00:28:14.180
interviewed any of the international people who allegedly wanted that ukrainian prosecutor fired
00:28:19.560
as much as joe biden did have you heard me say that before biden keeps saying but but these
00:28:27.080
international entities they wanted him fired and i kept saying so why don't we talk to him
00:28:32.840
why does nobody talk to him well there's that dog why is he not barking the most important fact
00:28:42.080
the most important fact in the world is whether that claim is true it's the most important fact in
00:28:49.880
the world right now because that's the fact that keeps a president in office that's a fact that would
00:28:56.160
determine whether his competitor could win whoever that is that's a fact that describes everything we
00:29:03.200
know about the situation it's a fact that would unlock the rosetta stone of corruption so you could
00:29:09.620
actually understand what happened you know without the news spin it may be a fact that's determining that
00:29:16.740
we're in a war which is destroying our economies it might create a nuclear war it's by far the most
00:29:23.960
question is it true that other you know serious people wanted him fired so after i said that and i
00:29:33.920
noted it's the same thing about the fine people hoax nobody nobody went to talk to the fine people to
00:29:39.400
find out if trump was right that there were some non-racists there who just wanted the statues
00:29:45.280
now turns out i did i actually asked on twitter are there any fine people who disavow racists who attended the event
00:29:54.740
some of them contacted me and so i talked to them and i'm convinced they're real people who in one case were
00:30:02.420
locals and they just heard something was going on about the statues and they wandered down and they were in favor of
00:30:08.340
keeping them and they said nazis we hate nazis but we like statues so did you notice that no one else in
00:30:16.400
the entire media landscape went went and said hey were there any fine people there because that was a
00:30:23.860
major claim in fact biden ran on that hoax so knowing the knowing the answer to the question
00:30:31.860
were there any people who were non-racists who were there just for the statues was the most important
00:30:38.440
question and nobody ever asked it except me nobody in the world i'm the only one who asked the question
00:30:46.800
and was the most important question which probably even got biden elected so back to the other one about
00:30:55.340
the ukrainian prosecutor shokin today i wake up to find that the news says
00:31:02.080
um and uh i saw this on a uh miranda is it divine i don't want to say divine right not divine
00:31:13.380
yes divine so miranda divine was uh writing and i saw kanakoa the great retweeting that the european
00:31:23.060
commission praised ukraine's prosecutor victor shokin for his efforts to fight corruption
00:31:29.160
in a december 2015 progress report published nine days after nine days after vp joe biden demanded his
00:31:40.620
ouster so the entity that he says agreed with him strikingly disagreed
00:31:47.820
even after he said it they disagreed in writing did you ever see that reported
00:31:57.600
have any of you ever seen that in the news before today
00:32:02.940
nope now let me ask you this is it a coincidence that i tweeted this and then it showed up in the news
00:32:14.100
i don't know i don't know but it's the most important question in the world
00:32:24.780
now would you agree it's the most important question in the world
00:32:27.900
because everything makes sense once you know that it was never true because that also allows you to
00:32:37.680
understand which news entities are corrupt because any news entity that was in curious about that
00:32:45.940
question is corrupt or completely incompetent i guess am i right did did you ever hear anybody even
00:32:56.520
ask the question have you checked with those other people because his entire story the entire story
00:33:02.380
story forever has depended on those other people and nobody ever talked to them you know but i guess
00:33:08.460
it was some news report that could be pulled down yeah how mind-blowing is that that the most important
00:33:17.420
question in the world the entire media appeared to be completely incurious about
00:33:22.220
but i'll give miranda divine a the credit in the new york post because they were curious enough to go get the answer
00:33:31.560
and the answer was it was a lie according to this
00:33:35.680
do you think this will be all over cnn today that the most important fact that we've ever seen in a year
00:33:44.760
probably just became clear no no no because democrats will never learn that what they think is the news has always been
00:33:56.220
brainwashing ops on them a little bit on us too but mostly they're brainwashing their own team
00:34:02.380
now here's the question do you think you're the atom of simulation theory
00:34:10.300
as in adam and eve that's a weird little weird little uh coincidence all right uh here's another
00:34:20.240
uh thing that uh democrats don't know but you do and so you know yuland musk again is having a battle
00:34:28.720
with the adl now here's what we know because we pay attention but others don't that the adl may have
00:34:37.660
had some noble purpose in the past i'm going to give them benefit of a doubt but at the moment
00:34:43.080
they're just a democrat organ that the democrats use to smear their opponents that's all it is
00:34:49.780
and they but because either people don't know or don't care uh apparently the media has
00:34:57.280
formed behind them and now there are a bunch of headlines about how uh elon musk is attacking this
00:35:04.080
wonderful adl so i guess he must be an anti-semite because he's going after the adl now if you were
00:35:10.640
a democrat you would think this is true but it's an op this this is obviously the adl obviously got
00:35:19.480
their media friends to write articles saying that the adl is right and elon musk is wrong do you know
00:35:26.180
why because if their friends didn't write that they would get smeared for being anti-semitic
00:35:31.500
the adl largely controls the news because they'll just call you anti-semitic even if it's
00:35:37.760
unrelated to the topic they'll find a reason to call you anti-semitic if you report things they
00:35:43.740
don't like they being the democrats now if you didn't know that you would think that elon musk is
00:35:51.260
acting sketchy by being against somebody who's against defamation that and that's what the democrats
00:35:58.560
would see right no dick it's not about the tribe it's about democrats who controls the adl one guy
00:36:13.660
one guy controls the adl do you know israel doesn't like the adl right
00:36:18.660
so those of you are saying oh this is the adl it's it's all part of the jewish conspiracy
00:36:26.140
don't you think that um benjamin netanyahu don't you think that he would be on the same side
00:36:34.560
if there was a major jewish conspiracy that the adl would be part of right israel is not a big fan of
00:36:42.320
the adl for the same reason that i'm describing they're not they're not a credible organization
00:36:47.560
and they certainly don't make israel look good so you're gonna have to work on your conspiracy
00:36:53.720
theories you're gonna have you're gonna have to explain why you think israel wants open borders
00:37:00.280
the dumbest fucking thing anybody ever thought in their life you know so you think they're all
00:37:05.300
backing soros and his open borders because israel itself would be better off with open borders
00:37:10.700
that's your theory that's your fucking theory like you should at least have a conspiracy theory
00:37:18.040
which sticks together a little bit right if your jewish conspiracy theory doesn't include
00:37:26.100
israel then you probably have a problem with your theory
00:37:34.600
um mike lindell is being a hero he's uh he's being uh what do you call it uh deposition he was doing a
00:37:44.580
deposition in which the lawyer uh referred to him as taking customer complaint calls
00:37:51.220
and uh he characterized it as people complaining about lumpy pillows well let me tell you
00:37:58.180
you can call mike lindell uh you know names you can say you can say that he's crazy
00:38:08.580
you can say he's a conspiracy theorist you can say many things about him but don't make fun of his
00:38:17.280
pillows that was a line too far and there's a funny clip of him calling the lawyer an asshole over and
00:38:24.560
over again which i could just watch all day long because the lawyer was an asshole there was nothing about
00:38:32.480
this deposition which should have mentioned lumpy pillows because it's not an evidence and it had
00:38:38.480
nothing to do with anything it was just a way to defame him in case the you know it was just another way
00:38:46.400
to defame him basically so it was a uh a very bad behavior and he just went after him it was fun
00:38:55.080
so i'm gonna buy two more pillows i'm gonna buy two i've got a couple i'm gonna buy two more my pillows
00:39:02.300
to reward him for his bad behavior because anytime somebody calls their lawyer an asshole during a
00:39:07.640
deposition my first question is what are you selling i think i need two of them so i'm gonna buy two pillows
00:39:14.860
uh sometime the next day or two oh they're good pillows yeah and by the way that the the design of
00:39:24.220
the my pillow it can't possibly be lumpy by design it wouldn't even be bought wouldn't even be a
00:39:30.120
possibility so i can see why you would be mad about that word these are not lumpy pillows they
00:39:36.060
will hold their form and you know there's a lot of personal preference but if if your personal
00:39:41.460
preference is like a nice firm pillow they're very good very good pillow i i can say for sure that
00:39:49.520
these are way above average pillows i haven't tried every pillow in the world but they're good pillows
00:39:56.120
and that ladies and gentlemen is the stories that interested me the most did i miss anything
00:40:05.700
is there any good story anything uh juicy that i soft landing talk about the economy you know i i do
00:40:16.220
not understand what's going on with the economy if anybody does because every part of it appears to
00:40:24.440
be something that's you know ready to fall apart but at the same time was it krugman who said that
00:40:30.900
people don't know that inflation is coming down or has come down or something do you believe that
00:40:37.000
do you does it feel to you like inflation came down doesn't feel it at the grocery store a restaurant
00:40:47.100
gas i think my health club is the same price i quit but if i went back it'd be the same price
00:40:56.480
uh rent would be up housing would be up furniture would be up insurance would be up energy would be up
00:41:05.420
what is he talking about i don't know anything that isn't up just maybe a few consumer items right
00:41:12.300
that's about it you got it so even even something like a uh inflation measurement you can't even trust
00:41:21.460
that all right let me tell you which things i'm good at predicting and what i'm not so this is what
00:41:29.640
i've learned on my own i'm terrible at predicting uh normal politics so the question there was who would
00:41:37.680
be trump's vice president i would call that normal politics because that has to do with a lot of
00:41:44.460
things that happen behind the scenes so i will always be bad at predicting who somebody will pick
00:41:50.360
as a vice president and have been bad in the past so i have don't don't listen to me when i say vice
00:41:55.080
president picks i'm also bad on anything that's purely political because i don't have much insight to
00:42:02.640
that the the places that i do well are spotting bullshit as i did with the uh the shokin thing
00:42:12.620
as i did with the fine people as i did with the um drinking bleach hoax so i'm really good at spotting
00:42:19.800
bullshit you know i was the first one i think probably the first one to call out that the secret
00:42:25.960
sonic weapon was bullshit you know as soon as the uh the ufo came out most of you were on the same
00:42:33.400
page but it didn't take me long to say bullshit and sure enough we're not seeing any aliens right
00:42:39.140
so if i tell you something's bullshit i think i have at least an 80 percent record would you agree
00:42:47.160
if you've been watching me for a while would you say i'm about 80 percent
00:42:51.380
right when i call out something that's not true yeah i think it's 90 but i'm going to give you 80
00:42:57.980
um but when it's a purely political thing would you also agree that i'm not so hot on that god
00:43:05.900
i don't have any i have no insight into that whatsoever yeah now i do have a tech so another
00:43:15.400
category would be technology and i don't know what my record is on technology but my but there's one
00:43:23.060
we can test i i'm one of the early people to say that ai will be underwhelming underwhelming and i
00:43:34.000
think that's contrarian so at least the the current version is just going to be a cool tool that only
00:43:41.260
people who take the time to learn how to use the tool are going to use which means that people will
00:43:46.720
use it in the context of their job but not much else so it'll be as transformative as the laser
00:43:54.440
printer and you know uh let's say when dos became you know visual it's going to be sort of like that so
00:44:03.700
it'll certainly make things look and feel different certainly your customer interactions with
00:44:09.900
companies should be greatly improved um i've had a few experiences of getting you know a good
00:44:16.660
high functioning ai in fact i had this the other day i got an ai instead of a person but it wasn't
00:44:24.700
one of these stupid phone trees that never work where you try to work through the phone tree it was
00:44:29.840
just a conversation it just asked me questions and i answered them i knew it was ai and it worked
00:44:35.580
it got it got me all the way to a final result it was very good now stuff like that will happen
00:44:42.340
stuff like that will happen but that's not really transformative it's not going to end society
00:44:48.520
i don't see the ai breaking people's passwords yet i don't it wasn't supposed to break all our
00:44:55.980
passwords by now so so you can test this one so my my prediction is the ai is uh
00:45:04.340
oh my somebody says my hardcover edition got fixed on amazon
00:45:14.100
when i got in this morning it wasn't fixed but i'll check that out
00:45:21.820
great book well let me tell you tell you again that my
00:45:31.100
um the reviews for reframe your brain are amazing it definitely is the best book i've written
00:45:40.360
in terms of usefulness so i would i have this following claim here's my claim there's no book
00:45:48.080
on improving your life that gives you more value in a simpler form it's the highest value
00:45:56.440
in the the simplest effort you really just read the sentence basically just read the sentence
00:46:02.800
some of them will work for you and some of them will be irrelevant
00:46:05.440
but that's my claim there's no book in the world
00:46:14.360
that's a big claim but look if if you see the people going by who have read the book they're
00:46:20.720
saying oh yeah that's true right there's nobody who's disagreeing with it who actually read it
00:46:28.820
i just said it was like the most useful book ever
00:46:33.300
a ridiculous claim for the little amount of time you put into it and there's not a single person who
00:46:40.100
read it was disagreeing i'm watching more comments on the locals platform but just think about that
00:46:45.560
how extraordinary that is can it fix brain damage maybe
00:46:51.080
depends how you it depends how you define damage
00:47:00.200
may so i guess uh apple is working on their own ai and they're putting massive amounts of money into it
00:47:13.560
use the first option there's still workbooks yeah
00:47:16.960
oh there's no hardcover okay so no the hardcover hasn't been fixed
00:47:26.140
so you might be you might be somebody i think somebody just noted that it's not fixed
00:47:32.120
that one of the problems is that it would be fixed and then unfixed
00:47:37.240
you just bought the hardcover well it does show up but it shows up
00:47:43.780
second so it shows the fake one first the last i checked i'll check again
00:47:49.040
but my old publisher did say they were going to take it down but it might take a few days
00:48:01.780
does it say the hardcover is not available when it is
00:48:07.080
all right um rumor that apple might buy disney oh i haven't heard that that doesn't sound
00:48:32.520
seriously that's not the worst idea in the world
00:48:47.240
i can't imagine that uh steve jobs would do that
00:49:00.460
so they're just buying a content maker for apple tv
00:49:30.480
how many fucking times do i have to tell you the same thing
