Good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization
00:00:08.140
It's called coffee with Scott Adams. I'm pretty sure there's never been a better time in your life
00:00:19.120
If you'd like to take this experience to levels that nobody can even understand this beyond human experience
00:00:25.520
All you need is a copper mug or a glass a tanker Charles Ristein a
00:00:30.000
Canteen jug a flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid
00:00:34.880
Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dope beef is a thing that makes everything better
00:00:40.520
It's called the simultaneous sip it happens now go
00:01:00.000
Derek Chauvin the police officer who was convicted of murdering George Floyd
00:01:06.080
He was stabbed in prison by another inmate and quite seriously injured
00:01:33.840
At the same time the documentary the fall of Minneapolis is trending
00:01:47.040
Because it's pretty obvious I think to objective people he did not die from Derek Chauvin's actions
00:01:54.080
It's like really really obvious when you are when you watch the documentary
00:02:18.080
So this is a the biggest miscarriage of justice
00:02:24.960
But we're starting to get used to white people being put in jail for political reasons
00:02:41.040
The new york city police force is losing police officers at an alarming rate
00:02:52.240
And and the whispers are that everybody's just waiting for their 20 years to click or whenever they can get a pension
00:03:01.920
What is not mentioned is the ethnicities of the cops
00:03:10.000
You know roughly proportionate to their ethnic mix
00:03:12.720
Do you think there's any group that's more likely to believe in the police force?
00:03:22.560
Make me quit if I were a police officer. I'd quit immediately
00:03:26.720
Because if you don't have support from your community
00:03:33.280
So wouldn't you agree if your community does not support you
00:03:37.600
Being a police officer is a terrible job option
00:03:42.480
But you know, maybe robots won't take that job. So it's got that going for it
00:03:47.840
Uh, and in the midst of this I guess there's massive overtime because there are not enough police officers
00:03:58.640
Harder because there'll be fewer police officers because they'll quit
00:04:02.640
Because of the massive overtime, which I guess is a big issue
00:04:05.360
So the fewer there are the more rapidly they'll quit. So we we have a death spiral
00:04:15.120
The more people who quit the more overtime the more overtime the more people quit more overnight
00:04:27.840
Population increasing mayor adams has canceled the next five police academy classes
00:04:33.440
So you won't have new ones and the impetus for the ones that are already there to quit
00:04:42.000
Now one of the things I would ask you is who quits the police force at first
00:04:47.760
Who are the ones that just get right out right away?
00:04:50.640
Well, there's once we're retiring of course or can retire
00:04:54.800
But I would think you would be the most capable
00:04:56.800
Because people who are highly capable can get other jobs
00:05:01.360
People who are just barely hanging on probably lucky to have the job they have
00:05:06.160
So I would expect that the quality of the police force would take a huge nosedive at the same time
00:05:14.960
I saw some estimates it was in Forbes that half of all jobs will will be ai in two years
00:05:24.880
I don't think so at all. I think where we're heading is that
00:05:32.400
You know where we're let me give you the the most obvious one
00:05:40.400
Voice work like voice dubbing and voice voiceovers will turn to ai
00:05:50.160
Well, it might be that the people who used to be the voice actors will be on work
00:06:06.720
And it's going to take a person to decide if it's right
00:06:09.760
And it's going to take a person to decide if you know which parts of the book to read and which ones to edit and stuff like that
00:06:22.880
Loses their job, but then they're just replaced with another human
00:06:26.800
Who has to manage the ai to make sure it does the right thing to make the voice recording
00:06:31.600
I think that's the way it's going to go with all the jobs
00:06:34.640
There'll be some you know niche of jobs that definitely do go away
00:06:39.280
But then more likely we're just using it as a tool
00:06:48.000
The jobs on the list of things that will go away is cartoonist
00:07:18.240
Sure, why did the scarecrow win an award because he was outstanding in his field?
00:07:23.840
Scarecrow won an award because he was outstanding in his field
00:07:27.360
Does that sound like a grant that's the one got a chuckle out of you?
00:07:35.040
Do you have a funnier joke that one wasn't very funny
00:07:40.240
Sure thing why don't scientists trust atoms because they make up everything
00:07:44.480
Did she just say the scientists don't don't trust atoms?
00:07:54.240
Why don't they trust me no not algorithms scientists don't trust atoms because they make up everything
00:08:00.640
It's a play on words anything else you'd like to chat about
00:08:04.720
Did you say the scientists don't trust Scott Adams?
00:08:11.440
No, not Scott Adams scientists don't trust atoms
00:08:14.960
It's a joke about the smallest particles that make up everything
00:08:17.840
Are you anything else you're curious about are you saying Scott Adams is a small particle?
00:08:25.920
No, sorry for any confusion. I was talking about atoms not Scott Adams. Well, let's switch gears
00:08:31.760
Is there a specific topic or question you have in mind?
00:08:34.480
My point is I don't think it's gonna be funny. I mean, I was funnier than the app just talking to it
00:08:52.560
I was funnier than the app and the app was trying as hard as it could to be funny and I wasn't even trying
00:08:57.440
It's like you you can be funnier than AI without even much effort at all
00:09:07.600
When I was talking to it, but it wasn't funny when it told the joke
00:09:11.040
Well, it wasn't funny when it told the joke. Number one, you've already heard those jokes. Those are old jokes
00:09:23.360
The zeitgeist is the sort of thing that everybody's thinking
00:09:29.280
You know what? What is the feeling everybody's getting?
00:09:34.640
If the news is causing people to have an anxiety or a feeling about something in particular
00:09:44.640
And so then we'll make a joke about that and you'll say oh, that's new
00:09:48.000
That's just what I was thinking. That's what makes it funny
00:09:50.560
But if AI just looks at jokes that have been told before by humans
00:09:59.440
It's going to be a derivative boring ordinary joke
00:10:05.360
But I can tell a joke that wouldn't have been funny a week ago
00:10:09.600
Just think about that. I can tell you a joke that wouldn't have been funny one week ago
00:10:14.400
Right because i'm i'm in i'm surfing the social feeling that the rest of you are feeling as well
00:10:27.600
Yet, and I would go further and say again that all art is dependent on the artist
00:10:34.240
Everything that you like about art your art appreciation is because of what you
00:10:42.240
Consciously or subconsciously think about the person who made it. It's not about the art
00:10:47.920
It's about the connection between the art and the person who made it
00:10:51.360
As soon as you take the person who made it out of the equation, it'll just lay there like a turd
00:10:58.880
AI demonstration that was on x today. Somebody made it. It shows a
00:11:05.760
So the image is created by ai. It's not a real person and
00:11:14.000
Which to me sounded like every taylor swift song i've ever heard
00:11:20.800
No, I also don't like taylor swift songs. I think that they're
00:11:28.240
Like nothing about a taylor swift song is ever interested in me at the least
00:11:32.640
But it might be because i'm not interested in taylor swift
00:11:40.720
Would I be interested in taylor swift as an artist?
00:11:45.600
Because she'd be like maybe what I want to grow up to be, you know, my hero or something
00:11:49.680
So if my hero makes a song, maybe I like it better
00:11:56.400
Like there's nothing about I don't dislike taylor swift. She's very successful must be very smart
00:12:06.720
And I would argue that if taylor swift the human
00:12:10.400
Were not associated with the music you wouldn't listen to it
00:12:14.800
You would not listen to her music if the only thing you knew about it is how it sounded
00:12:19.840
And that's the problem with ai it'll just be how it sounds
00:12:25.680
The the fact that taylor swift does songs about her old boyfriends
00:12:38.720
Was about a real person in a real situation completely changes your impression of it
00:12:49.360
Um the newest wrinkle in that in those tunnels beneath that chifa hospital in gaza
00:12:56.320
Remember first people were saying hey, maybe there's no tunnels under there
00:13:03.440
Did a great job of finding them and excavating them you know because they've been filled in with some sand
00:13:08.320
And you know, they got rid of the booby traps and they showed you a long video of the actual tunnels
00:13:18.880
Amazingly today we find out that the tunnels were built by israel
00:13:27.040
I'm not making this up. The tunnels under the chifa hospital were built by israel
00:13:38.240
And it was a favor to the hospital to give them more just more space
00:13:44.240
Because the hospital was in you know crowded area
00:13:51.520
That that proves that it was not being used by hamas
00:13:54.880
Which is a whole different subject so who built them is way less important
00:13:59.200
Than whether hamas was using it as headquarters
00:14:08.080
But of course it's like every other story in the world
00:14:15.440
But it seems very unlikely to me that it was not being used by hamas
00:14:22.080
You're you're satisfied that it was exactly what it looked like it was a hamas
00:14:34.240
Because if it had just been used by the hospital
00:14:37.840
It would have been hard to make it look like it wasn't just used by the hospital
00:14:42.320
If the hospital was using it there would have been you know supplies down there
00:14:46.560
I don't know. I don't believe any of it. I'm pretty sure it was a hamas
00:14:57.840
I will preface this with what I call my opinion sandwich
00:15:02.960
The opinion sandwich means that I might say something that would get me in trouble
00:15:07.200
But i'm going to sandwich it between two things that make it okay
00:15:13.200
I completely 100% for israel's right of self-defense
00:15:25.680
And when i'm done with what i'm saying i'm going to say that again
00:15:31.520
And I just wondered this is a general information question
00:15:35.920
If I asked you most of you know that when israel was formed
00:15:39.760
1948 that some number of palestinian types who lived there
00:15:50.560
How many people do you think who lived there who would have identified as palestinian? I guess
00:15:58.320
How many of them do you think were expelled in 1948? Give me a number
00:16:04.080
I'm not going to tell you the right number until I see but but even if you don't know
00:16:19.680
It's not 25. I'm that's the 25 is a joke when people are writing 25. That's a it's a call back to a joke
00:16:34.400
Of the when I say palestinian? I mean that's what they would call themselves. It wasn't wasn't called the country of palestine
00:16:47.680
All right, so it turns out that if you try to search for it you get different numbers
00:16:52.560
So some some say 700 000 people say 700 some say
00:17:15.360
How many of you know what that situation was called
00:17:30.000
Nakba does that mean exodus what does that mean?
00:17:38.400
700 000 palestinians and then imagine the birth rate
00:17:42.560
Of palestinians since then pretty high birth rate
00:17:47.440
Wouldn't we be talking about several million people who were
00:17:51.440
Either directly expelled or the children of people expelled
00:17:58.240
Now i'm not going to give you an opinion of what is right or wrong who owns the territory. I actually am not interested in any of their history
00:18:08.080
Whoever can hold the place militarily owns it. Unfortunately, you could talk all day about who should own it
00:18:18.080
Whoever can own it is going to own it. That's just the way the world works
00:18:22.000
So you don't you know the the conversation of who should own it just sort of fun, but irrelevant
00:18:33.440
And then I will sandwich that comment by saying i'm 100% beside be behind israel
00:18:38.880
In their self-defense and what they have to do to get rid of hamas
00:18:48.240
Coming out strong again. He's been saying this for a while about banning tiktok. Here's what I'd like to say about senator marco rubio
00:19:01.280
I've gotten really discouraged about our government
00:19:17.600
Conversation if you can't even explain the problem
00:19:24.320
Correctly and perfectly explains that yes, there's a data
00:19:31.040
But it's not the big problem. The big problem is that china has a direct
00:19:34.880
User interface to american minds and you cannot compare that to an american made or an american owned company
00:19:42.160
Which also may be spreading some propaganda, but at least it's american
00:19:55.600
Pushing you know one side of the political argument
00:20:07.040
I appreciate that that's some that's some good governmenting there good senatoring
00:20:32.400
Does all of this feel a little bit too familiar?
00:20:39.760
Yeah, we got uh trump leading in the polls election coming up
00:20:47.360
There might be another pandemic brewing coming from china
00:20:55.600
All right, um, I don't know if you heard about this but the democrats have a
00:21:00.400
Put out just before thanksgiving a handy guide for responding to your crazy mega nonsense. That's what it actually says
00:21:17.200
It's a handy guide for responding to crazy and crazy mega nonsense
00:21:27.760
So that you could take that with you to your next family gathering
00:21:31.520
A lot of people said who who would tell people to argue with their
00:21:38.320
Which I say I don't think that's going to cause you to argue with them
00:21:48.800
Politico sounding the alarm as they like to say when you talk about news stories
00:21:54.160
It's one way that the traditional news always says somebody who sounded the alarm
00:22:02.880
Anyway politico is talking about biden's poll numbers aren't just bad. They're getting worse
00:22:16.240
Although the demographic about losing the young vote is still not completely agreed on
00:22:22.560
By all the pollsters, so there's a little disagreement on that
00:22:34.480
Like how are the democrats going to handle this
00:22:37.600
Do you think they're gonna have to assassinate their own candidate?
00:22:41.840
You know, I here's the thing that comes to mind
00:22:49.440
Because you think about jfk jr. And i'm sorry you think about jfk
00:23:01.600
Actually try to kill a candidate for president trump?
00:23:10.640
Because if they replace biden they've got a fighting chance of winning the election outright
00:23:24.640
I'm not saying that I know anybody's planning anything like this. I'm just speculating because it's fun
00:23:30.640
But if you were if you were like the worst people
00:23:34.160
In the democrat blob, you know the people who do anything to win
00:23:46.000
I'm pretty sure the best place to take biden now
00:23:49.120
So you might have this weird situation well of both of course, but your your weird situation
00:23:55.840
That the democrats might need to assassinate their own leader
00:24:03.120
That'd be weird now when I say assassinate I don't mean literally
00:24:09.600
Come up with some kind of an op that takes them out
00:24:17.520
I think that the the blob will keep pushing biden every way they can push him
00:24:23.200
And if he doesn't get pushed because he needs to protect his family and have the pardon ability
00:24:32.080
I think the blob is going to tell you the stuff that you don't know about yet
00:24:40.960
The thing that the thing that everybody in washington probably knows
00:24:44.240
But nobody has quite you know proof so they don't say it out loud
00:24:50.320
The blob is going to drop a dime on biden and it's going to happen really soon
00:25:13.920
March first one so you don't want to wait till february
00:25:21.760
You don't you don't want it to get like caught up with the holiday news
00:25:27.040
I think in january they're going to take them out
00:25:30.000
All right. Do you want to go with that prediction?
00:25:33.360
That the the blob will take out biden it won't be republicans. It'll be the blob
00:25:39.200
blob meaning democrats and people who agree with them the media agrees with them the intelligent people
00:25:45.360
All those yeah, we used to call it the deep state. I think blob is a better. I like blob
00:25:58.640
Uh the vague ramaswamy is uh pitching the idea that the next gop debate
00:26:04.880
Should be on the x platform and hosted by tucker carlson
00:26:09.520
What do you think of that you think the next republican debate should be on x
00:26:14.640
I will remind you that tucker carlson's numbers for his shows
00:26:21.760
something like a hundred times bigger than any network
00:26:35.040
So what would the new york post editorial group say about this idea?
00:26:50.640
Just inadvertently revealed that his once promising presidential campaign has devolved into a sad bid for social media fame
00:27:02.640
What part of the story about him wanting to use the biggest platform?
00:27:11.040
Which part is the admitting that he just wants to be a social media star?
00:27:23.360
And so an online debate would likely get him a better outcome
00:27:28.400
Than a television debate which would be senior citizens
00:27:34.480
So if he puts on acts against more young people
00:27:42.800
Plus plus tucker carlson would ask better questions
00:27:47.040
And the way the new york port post says it is he's devolved into a sad bid from social media fame
00:28:03.680
And then they say to follow up their ridiculousness
00:28:10.640
He claimed it would be a way to increase viewership
00:28:13.920
But you don't get a larger audience by making something harder to watch
00:28:21.440
Does the new york post editorial staff not know
00:28:27.840
That tucker carlson's audiences are a hundred times bigger than traditional media?
00:28:46.400
Yeah, I don't know if it's a hundred but it's a lot bigger
00:29:01.040
So obviously this is just more about the business model of the press they want to keep it
00:29:07.280
There was apparently some new UAP legislation that's brewing
00:29:14.160
Which would add transparency to all the ufo claims
00:29:20.560
Allow the public to see more than we've seen so far
00:29:24.000
Now everybody thinks that's a good idea right everybody
00:29:27.120
Don't you think the public should know everything our government knows about ufos
00:29:37.280
That there are four republican members of the gang of eight
00:29:41.280
And this is the people who have classified intelligence
00:29:45.280
So these are the people who do know the secrets that you don't know
00:29:50.160
There are four people who know the actual secrets
00:29:53.600
About the so-called ufos or maybe it's a new technology
00:30:13.520
That the people who know the most about it don't believe the public should be allowed to know
00:30:33.360
That's a possibility right there could be four republicans who believe there's really something there
00:30:38.880
And they don't want you to know because you might panic
00:30:42.480
Right, so it could be they mistakenly believe something that's not true
00:30:57.200
And we don't want anybody to know we have this American technology
00:31:03.760
Why other people who also know the top secret information
00:31:10.800
Can you see any scenario in which the the reality of the uaps is top secret american technology?
00:31:19.120
And yet four people who know that would be willing to tell the public
00:31:28.800
Would want to tell the public about top secret military technology
00:31:35.040
So i'm going to i'm going to eliminate from the option set
00:31:40.560
I'm going to eliminate that it's america it's american technology
00:31:45.760
Now suppose we knew it was somebody else's technology like chinese technology
00:31:56.960
I feel like we might want to tell the public that because we told them about the spy balloons
00:32:05.520
Now would it be because americans would be too afraid of the new technology?
00:32:21.440
Of why there might be four republicans who don't want you to know is that they don't know what it is
00:32:27.040
I think it's more likely that the four republicans who want to keep it close to the vest
00:32:32.320
Still don't know if it's human technology or alien or what
00:32:44.320
What do you think is the main reason that they wouldn't want to tell you?
00:32:53.040
I think it has to come down to whether you believe it's real
00:33:01.600
That it would reveal something about america that we don't want to reveal
00:33:08.080
We know there's one historical example where the I believe it was the cia
00:33:22.160
To divert from the real things that we're doing
00:33:25.600
So we know that that happened at least as a suggestion
00:33:44.480
That our intelligence agencies plant these stories intentionally
00:33:49.200
And they may not want to take that tool away from the intelligence people because maybe sometimes planting a fake story is just what you need
00:34:01.280
Yeah, they do it does look like an intentional distraction to me
00:34:11.520
We'll never know probably but i'm going to go with there are four republican
00:34:16.160
Candidates who know it would reveal something about the way we operate
00:34:26.240
Something about the way the government operates
00:34:31.120
That's so unsavory that maybe better we didn't know
00:35:00.000
So apparently there are two things correlated one is
00:35:13.120
There are more black deaths among college educated black women
00:35:33.600
So in other words, we've narrowed it down to two things
00:35:36.720
There are two things that will cause excess black deaths
00:35:41.680
Poverty and the end and the other thing that will cause it is no poverty
00:35:48.560
So two situations that cause it poverty and no poverty
00:35:56.400
The black women with college degrees are probably making more money than the white women without college degrees
00:36:02.080
So in both cases, if they have money or don't have money, they die
00:36:07.920
And uh, the article attributes this to systemic racism
00:36:12.400
So systemic racism is why black people will die
00:36:27.120
Did did all did that sound like ridiculous nonsense?
00:36:37.120
I don't know what's true, but I know this is bullshit
00:36:44.800
And there's another study i'm not sure i believe any studies anymore
00:36:49.680
Well, i'm not even sure why i bring them up they're all going to be debunked in a month
00:36:53.840
But there's studies that says that there were uh on the on the positive side
00:36:57.600
If you like if you like this as a positive there were 32 000 extra births
00:37:06.640
Abortion became illegal in a number of states after the big supreme court decision
00:37:16.640
Babies born that would have been aborted if it were easier to abort them
00:37:24.240
Do you think convenience was the only reason that 32 000 babies were born?
00:37:30.080
That if you had to drive somewhere or maybe pay extra
00:37:33.200
I seem to have a little problem here with one of my devices
00:38:06.560
And then other people are saying this is good news
00:38:12.640
Is it good news that these babies who would have been aborted were born?
00:38:22.720
But here's the question I asked you for morality reasons
00:38:33.680
For those of you who say the 32 000 extra births were sort of a blessing
00:38:41.120
How good is it to be born when you weren't wanted?
00:38:45.120
Now, I know there are lots of times that works out great
00:38:48.000
You know the mother will say you know I didn't choose this but I'm sure glad I have this baby
00:38:53.440
What what percentage of the 32 000 are going to be born into a like a hellscape of
00:39:12.400
Were going to be born into a horrible situation
00:39:23.840
Let's say hypothetically. Let's just be this just a
00:39:31.600
There's no opinion of mine in this. It's actually a genuine question
00:39:35.760
If you knew you could create 32 000 extra babies by getting rid of abortion
00:39:47.680
Is that still morally that's still the correct thing to do?
00:40:05.120
Now for how many of you is the question again, this is not my opinion
00:40:17.520
For those of you who say you know life is sacred
00:40:25.200
Or would you say that if you didn't have any religious belief?
00:40:37.920
Just feeling how it feels and thinking how you think?
00:41:18.000
You know, so here's the question that comes out to this
00:41:25.200
Some would say that you know life is life and if god decided there was going to be a life
00:42:03.920
What lives are any of those lives more valuable than others?
00:42:08.560
For example, when you're if you're giving back a hostage that's 80 years old
00:42:16.080
But an 80 year old has you know, maybe five years of extra life left
00:42:33.200
If you had to choose, I mean you'd rather not choose but if you had to
00:42:37.600
Same value or different value because one is 100 years of life and the one is five years life
00:42:45.280
You would value the maximum years of life on average
00:42:50.400
So I don't have an opinion on that i'm just asking you if you do all right
00:43:03.760
Stopping somebody's life before they knew they had a life
00:43:07.680
And again, this is not i'm not giving you any opinion on abortion
00:43:11.440
I'm just asking you your opinion. Which is more moral?
00:43:18.800
From growing you would call it murder some would call it an abortion
00:43:24.240
Is that worse if you knew the person was going to be born into a life of misery?
00:43:30.880
Would it be better to for someone who's never even understood that they're alive they don't even know they're alive
00:43:40.640
Would be better to stop that if you knew they were going to be born into misery
00:43:50.000
Or to prevent a life of misery before anybody even knew they had a life at all?
00:43:55.360
No one right no one knows the future so you would be operating only on statistical likelihood that is correct
00:44:09.280
You'd have to make a statistical choice that doesn't really change the equation too much
00:44:30.320
Maybe is addicted to drugs you know, whatever it is
00:44:33.840
But I think you could pretty well determine which ones are going to have a tough time
00:44:38.400
And and and does it matter that you would only be right 90 percent of the time
00:44:45.040
Well 10 percent of the time it would be a good life
00:44:53.920
Now don't give me the kobayashi maru of they should just not have to get pregnant like we all get that
00:45:01.360
But you know once you are pregnant, how do you make the decision?
00:45:06.560
Chaos corner says you're lost in the woods scott. Now that's cognitive dissonance
00:45:19.760
If you can't handle the question you you go personally after the speaker. I didn't give you any opinion at all
00:45:28.000
So why am I lost if I didn't give you an opinion?
00:45:34.080
Event because the questions are too difficult for you to kick around
00:45:37.760
That's called playing god playing god is called word thinking we're thinking is not part of the conversation
00:45:48.880
If you can replace all the thinking with like little bumper sticker phrases the plain god or it's a life
00:46:00.800
You know giving you the label doesn't change what it is
00:46:41.120
Exists as a force as opposed to just the label you put on something you don't like how many think evil is like a real thing?
00:46:48.000
Do you think it's real and do you think it's coming from a
00:46:56.240
A source is the evil emanating from a source as in satan
00:47:03.200
How many of you believe evil is real and it emanates from satan
00:47:25.280
I don't even understand that honestly for those who say evil is real
00:47:29.920
I I neither agree with it or disagree with it like what the fuck does that mean
00:47:37.760
But for those of you who have a solid opinion that evil is real
00:47:50.000
Is it like gravity you can measure it, but you can't grab a handful of it
00:47:55.520
You know, it's certainly something that you can measure
00:47:59.040
In terms of you know, is there more murder or less murder
00:48:02.560
You can measure that but does that mean evil exists or does it just mean that the system is created?
00:48:12.720
Yeah, so I can't agree with you that evil exists because I don't even understand that what you're talking about
00:48:19.680
Me that there's there's no part of my brain that could even handle that question
00:48:28.480
What do you call someone who eats children hungry
00:48:30.960
There was my glib answer that's right. What do you call somebody who eats children hungry?
00:48:42.240
No, there we know that we there is a mental illness
00:48:53.760
You'll do things that you wouldn't do if you didn't take that drug
00:48:56.160
We know that people can be brainwashed to do the most horrible things
00:49:02.000
Is a brainwashed person operating under the force of evil or under the force of brainwashing?
00:49:10.720
So that the whole evil question is sort of that
00:49:25.120
I don't want to think about two hearts. I'll say evil
00:49:31.360
No, maybe if you thought about this with a little more depth
00:49:34.720
You might see that some kind of cause and effect based on
00:49:38.640
you know, the person how they were born plus how they were raised
00:49:42.240
Maybe you could do something about that. No, it's just evil. Nope. Satan. Just evil
00:49:51.920
Is just saying you don't want to think about it
00:49:55.920
That's what that's what it sounds like to my ears because I don't think evil is real
00:50:00.560
Evil is just a word you put on something you didn't like
00:50:18.560
Well, if you have a religious interpretation then you would disagree
00:50:30.880
No, I don't think there's good and evil. I think there's just what people do
00:50:46.080
Let me ask you this question. Here's a religious question for you
00:50:50.560
Do you have to do you have to believe that free will exists
00:50:54.960
In order for evil to exist? I don't know the answer to this question
00:51:07.600
Some say you can't have evil unless there's free will
00:51:32.880
But I think science has proven that free will is imaginary
00:51:37.680
And a free will is imaginary then evil doesn't make a lot of sense to me just cause
00:51:45.920
If I if I take a rock and I drop it it just drops on the ground
00:51:58.880
If I drop that rock on my foot and it hurts my foot
00:52:09.360
So to me, you know, if somebody is born a cannibal
00:52:13.680
You know, there's something about their genetic makeup and then on top of that their upbringing turns them into a cannibal
00:52:20.080
That's just like somebody dropping a rock on their foot
00:52:29.040
Oh, I hate the rock on my foot and I hate the guy eating my son
00:52:37.920
Genetics plus environment caused the cannibal to eat your son
00:52:51.280
There's some kind of a power issue here going on
00:52:58.880
Uh, youtube thanks for joining it's kind of a slow saturday after black friday
00:53:07.920
Another day, but I don't think this weekend is going to be a big news day. Thanks for joining youtube. Talk to you tomorrow
