Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2430 CWSA 03⧸31⧸24

00:00:00.000 right this is a special uh easter edition is it all right if i call it the easter edition

00:00:08.000 will i will my esg score go down or anything i don't know how anything works anymore

00:00:14.000 but if you'd like to take this experience in a dangerous way up to levels that nobody can

00:00:19.120 even understand all you need for that is a cup or mugger glass a tankard chalice just iron a

00:00:24.320 canteen jug or flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join

00:00:30.480 me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day the thing that

00:00:33.520 makes everything better it's called the simultaneous sip and it happens now go

00:00:40.640 ah audio is looking good lighting good i feel like everything's going our way

00:00:49.200 do you feel that yet do you feel it everything's going our way

00:00:54.960 i think you do yeah well i got stories and oh we got insights stories and insights

00:01:03.120 anybody up for some stories and insights raise your hands okay good good looks like we have a quorum

00:01:12.320 well let's start with uh this important story that uh arizona has declared pluto its official state

00:01:19.120 planet hmm well some say it's not a planet but i didn't want to get into that it just made me

00:01:25.600 wonder if arizona is going to take pluto you know there's not that many planets left so i think the

00:01:30.960 other states need to get on this um i was trying to think what would be the perfect planet for california

00:01:38.720 uh let's see sidewalks full of feces uranus uranus so i'm going to suggest that california

00:01:47.760 adopt its sister sister planet uranus

00:01:52.320 i think that's the right fit there's a new york city democrat who's asking where are the men

00:02:02.880 because of all the violence in the streets and i guess she's concerned that

00:02:08.800 that the men are not protecting the women on the streets

00:02:12.000 uh well i guess the uh penny finally dropped uh if you'd like to take a moment to uh describe that

00:02:23.440 joke to whoever you're with who didn't understand how is that funny the penny dropped i don't even

00:02:30.240 understand what does currency have to do with this story in any possible way daniel penny the hint is

00:02:36.320 daniel penny yeah as long as daniel penn is in jail i don't think any man should save any woman

00:02:46.080 no i'm kidding if you see somebody in trouble do something about it but you can certainly understand

00:02:53.200 why men would want to stay involved if i saw a fight on the subway i don't know what it would take

00:03:00.480 to get involved i mean i really don't i mean i would like to think that i would be a normal human

00:03:08.320 citizen and get involved if i saw somebody in trouble but i don't think i would you know if

00:03:14.800 i saw somebody fighting it out on the subway i definitely wouldn't if it's men if if it's women

00:03:21.840 i'd have to really think hard about it because helping means i go to jail

00:03:25.840 right helping means i go to jail so you might you end up in this weird situation where you're

00:03:34.160 thinking all right okay maybe she'll get a broken nose well that's probably better than me going to

00:03:40.800 jail i mean she'll get over the broken nose yeah you'll end up making like just absurdly immoral

00:03:48.800 decisions there's your new york city so you get what you vote for there's that well this will be

00:03:56.720 the surprise you've never imagined could happen can you believe that 60 minutes is planning to do

00:04:03.600 i guess i would be today a hit piece on the self-driving software on tesla oh probably just

00:04:11.760 because they thought that'd be a good story not because it's elon musk and he's the only keeper of

00:04:17.520 free speech and if they could take elon musk off the board it would give them full control of the

00:04:23.200 entire narrative but that's a coincidence total coincidence well we have so many coincidences

00:04:30.880 happening today should we talk about the fact that uh national trans awareness day is on easter

00:04:41.440 is that a hoax maybe a little bit because it turns out that the trans visibility day

00:04:50.480 has always been on this day it's just that easter isn't always on this day

00:04:55.520 so by coincidence easter fell on the same day as trans visibility day and so it only makes complete

00:05:03.440 sense that the white house would focus a little more on the train oh wait it's a choice wasn't it

00:05:10.560 oh it's not a coincidence it's a choice because it is a coincidence that they fell on the same day

00:05:18.320 all right if you don't know that your news failed you let me make sure everybody knows that

00:05:24.080 it's just a coincidence it fell on the same day the white house didn't decide to put it on that day

00:05:30.560 but you know what they did decide to do they decided to highlight it instead of easter

00:05:35.360 now they're going to have the the egg hunt or whatever so there's always some attention for easter

00:05:40.960 as well and they put out a statement saying oh we the president's a christian he likes easter

00:05:47.840 but it would be hard to ignore the fact that trans visibility day is an absurdity

00:05:56.560 it's an absurdity is there anything more visible than trans i can't think of a single thing we've talked

00:06:03.200 about more and yet is less important it's the single most visible thing in the whole freaking world

00:06:11.440 right now so to imagine that you need a little more of that trans visibility and maybe a little

00:06:17.280 less attention on easter it feels like the wrong choice it's not some big conspiracy where they're

00:06:24.560 trying to erase easter definitely they played it wrong i think i don't think they read the room right there

00:06:30.800 let's talk about some fake science uh surgeon general jerome adams no relation to me um says

00:06:41.520 that up to 20 of the u.s population has experienced long covid now i think he's trying to get you to take

00:06:47.840 your shots do you believe that the surgeon general is correct when he says that up to 20 of the u.s

00:06:54.480 population has experienced long covid do you believe that here's what i believe

00:07:03.040 let's put it in context 20 okay 20 of people believe they had long covid what would be what

00:07:11.440 would be some other things that 20 of the public also believes hmm let's see 20 of the public

00:07:20.000 that would be that's less than the amount of the public that believes they personally have

00:07:25.600 experienced a ghost yeah so there are more people reporting that they think they have long covid

00:07:33.120 than there are it's it's roughly the same as people who believe they've seen a ghost

00:07:39.680 but far lower than the number of citizens in the u.s who believe the fine people hoax and the drinking

00:07:45.840 bleak jokes so it's where it's way fewer i mean half of the country believes the hoaxes but only 20

00:07:52.000 believe they had long covid about the same as ghosts and far fewer than the percentage of u.s who believe

00:07:59.920 that they'll get a harp when they go to heaven actual a literal a literal physical harp i saw that

00:08:07.920 newsweek a number of years ago the number of adults who believe they actually are

00:08:12.960 um assigned a musical instrument in heaven it's a pretty big percentage it's greater than 20 percent

00:08:21.200 so what would you say about this in the context of a recent news report that said long covid probably

00:08:26.880 doesn't even exist and it's imaginary what is true what about the science that says recent recent

00:08:34.960 science that says all imaginary there's no long covid well either the science that says there's no long

00:08:42.560 covid is fake or the surgeon general of the united states doesn't understand science

00:08:50.560 hmm neither of those are a good outcome are they and is the long covid data i'm just going to guess here

00:09:01.200 i'm no expert but i'm going to guess that the way they figured out how many people experienced long

00:09:08.240 covid was they asked them is that how it worked they said do you think you had any long covid and then

00:09:16.000 people say yes and then they added up is it possible that his science is asking people to self-report

00:09:24.640 their imaginary symptoms and then he made national policy based on it i think that actually happened

00:09:32.320 how else would you know somebody had long covid other than asking them because i don't believe

00:09:38.960 there's a i don't believe they tested it like with a sample that showed them who had it or something

00:09:46.320 well so in a world in which half of the people believe the fine people hoax and the drinking

00:09:50.160 bleach hoax and at least 20 believe they've had a personal experience with a ghost if not an alien

00:09:56.720 space encounter what do you think would happen if you asked the population do you think you had long covid

00:10:04.240 i mean what do you imagine would be the result of that

00:10:09.760 probably about the same as if you ask them do you think a demon has taken over your brain

00:10:16.720 yeah you you could get 20 to say anything

00:10:19.520 in fact it's my running joke that 25 will get the wrong answer on every poll 20 yeah i got some long

00:10:28.720 covid here now i'm not saying long covid isn't real i'm not even saying that the percentage is wrong

00:10:35.680 i wouldn't know what i am saying is that we can't trust science science is just ridiculous at this

00:10:43.120 point it's it's become an absurdity after the pandemic it was pretty obvious that you can't trust it

00:10:49.600 and i'll go further than that and say that all experts are useless and that there's a reason for that

00:10:55.600 let me give you one more example and then i'll tell you why there's reason would you all agree it's

00:11:01.360 pretty easy to get you to agree that the scientific and medical experts showed us we can't depend on them

00:11:10.320 would you say that's true that we have really conclusive proof that you can't depend on the

00:11:17.760 even even if 90 of them are on the same side it just really doesn't mean anything it just doesn't

00:11:24.800 mean anything so here's another one david sachs from the all in podcast and other things he said that

00:11:32.160 ukraine's summer counteroffensive was one of the biggest debacles in the history of modern warfare

00:11:36.960 with tanks and soldiers running headlong at the minefields while russian artillery rained down on

00:11:41.600 them from heavily fortified positions now do you know how much uh pushback david sachs got

00:11:52.400 you know for his opinions of the war and his opinions were always met with um david sachs

00:11:58.560 what what could you tell us your military expertise um why don't you tell us about all your military

00:12:06.320 expertise when you give us your military opinions because we've got real experts we have generals we

00:12:13.840 have people who have been in war maybe we should listen to them or could you just look at it with

00:12:21.120 common sense and say um i'm adding up the number of people ukraine has and the number of people russia has

00:12:29.280 really see how they can win this given the weaponry etc so was this a is this a case where the experts

00:12:38.240 were wrong the military experts and is it something that any reasonable person could look at and said

00:12:44.560 well i don't see how you're gonna be russia if they're really dug in i would say this is another

00:12:50.720 example where the experts were either lying for money or for i don't know promotions or whatever

00:12:57.200 they're either lying or they actually didn't know that this was a bad bet now of course we're all

00:13:03.920 geniuses in hindsight right we're all geniuses so i'm not saying that you should listen to david sachs

00:13:11.280 on the next war i'm not saying he's going to beat the experts on every you know military decision

00:13:17.760 i'm just saying it looks random to me it looks random like i don't think the experts had any

00:13:23.360 advantage over just a citizen you could pick randomly on this one you know maybe they get the next one right

00:13:30.640 but you can't trust them and i would say that there's a reason that no expert can ever be relied on again

00:13:37.360 it's built into the system here's here's why you can't rely on them on anything important whether

00:13:47.360 it's a pandemic or a war you can have a set of experts all right so we all agree on that so far

00:13:53.280 right there's some big important thing there will be a bunch of experts there will also be a gigantic

00:14:03.040 amount of money involved because it's a big thing pandemic trillion dollars war trillion dollars

00:14:11.680 energy trillion dollars right nuclear energy trillion dollars climate change trillion dollars

00:14:20.560 multiple trillions in that case so when you're talking about big topics where there are trillion dollars

00:14:26.480 at stake there are no experts there are only people who have taken money and people who haven't and you

00:14:34.720 don't know the difference there are only people who are afraid they're going to get fired if they go

00:14:39.040 against the grain because the people taking the money have you know created a consensus and then the people

00:14:45.760 who didn't take any money are like well i guess i can't even say my opinion

00:14:50.800 so we've created a system where for anything important the experts are always bought off because

00:14:59.200 there's just too much money involved and bought off doesn't mean they directly took a payment

00:15:04.800 it means that if you gave a speech saying that the the covid shots were garbage you can never give another

00:15:11.920 speech that'd be your last speech and you get paid for it so nobody who makes money for a living is going to

00:15:19.600 throw their money away when they could just say you know oh let's pretend i go along with the majority

00:15:26.320 and uh look i got invited to do another speech oh look i got that grant yeah so everybody knows where

00:15:33.600 the money is so i would say that in a situation in which the topic has a trillion dollars at stake

00:15:41.520 there's no such thing as experts you just assume they're bought

00:15:45.920 the only time an expert would be useful is if you can't imagine any way that they could be benefiting

00:15:53.840 from the advice they give you so there might be situations in your personal life

00:15:59.760 where there's something that's only happening to you and then you know you talk to your lawyer or your

00:16:04.480 doctor and it's good advice because they don't have anything to gain right there's nobody going to pay them

00:16:10.560 to give you specifically different advice on your little specific problem there's no other incentive

00:16:17.120 for them other than doing a good job but as soon as it's big climate change and wars and pandemics

00:16:24.000 all the experts are useless automatically they're automatically universally non-credible and we have

00:16:31.760 to figure out how to deal with that and by the way ai isn't going to help you because it will be just as

00:16:38.080 easy for the people with money to co-opt the ais they just go to the ai company and say you know

00:16:46.080 i'd be advertising a lot more with you if you said things i liked

00:16:52.640 experts are useless well there's a report that apparently there's something like esg for individuals

00:17:00.080 now so esg the equity uh social and governance so that's about uh keeping the climate clean and

00:17:12.640 making sure that there's equity

00:17:16.640 and of course that's been applied to businesses much to the chagrin of the businesses and the stockholders

00:17:24.880 because it's sort of this external force that's distorting the free market and it's not helping

00:17:30.720 anybody i would argue but now apparently individual companies are sharing data so they can find out if

00:17:38.080 you individually have a good esg score now i don't think it'll be called esg when it supplied to individuals

00:17:45.520 but same thing so they would look at for example your buying patterns and they'd say whoa looks like

00:17:53.120 this person is buying a lot of things that are bad for the environment you got a big gas guzzler there

00:18:00.240 and then maybe they pick up something else you know maybe they're looking at your social media

00:18:04.960 giving you a giving you a grade this would be the end of everything

00:18:09.200 really i mean i don't think that this will survive i think the pushback will be too great but if

00:18:17.520 companies start getting together and banding together to grade their customers on whether

00:18:23.280 they suck or not that's really the end of civilization i wonder if they realize that's like an existential

00:18:31.760 threat to the whole thing we've got lots of existential threats at the moment most of them won't

00:18:37.120 be a problem in the long run we'll figure them out but here's one to watch in case you want to do some

00:18:44.000 pushback um jonathan hate has a new book out whose name i can't remember maybe you can put it in the

00:18:50.640 comments jonathan hates new book h-a-i-d-t hate anyway so he's talking about the uh gender dysphoria stuff

00:19:00.960 he says uh it happens in clusters of girls that's the way you know it's a psychological thing and not a

00:19:07.760 not a physical thing um because it happens in clusters so if you can see it happening in

00:19:14.960 clusters that means it's socially being transmitted i think that's pretty good evidence um

00:19:23.120 so it's very different from the kinds of gender dysphoria cases that we've known about for decades

00:19:28.400 uh he says i mean it's a real thing in other words uh jonathan hate is saying that gender dysphoria is a

00:19:34.160 real thing uh but what happened especially when girls um with when girls got youtube and instagram

00:19:42.000 and then especially tick tock uh girls got sucked into these vortices and they take on each other's

00:19:48.800 purported mental illnesses now that's something i've never heard before that somebody else's mental illness

00:19:55.840 can can can impact you to act like them you'll you'll actually imitate their mental illness

00:20:04.640 now that would be a case where some you assume somebody has mental illness so

00:20:08.480 that that's also controversial but do you think that um does this describe our situation do you think

00:20:17.440 that the psychology and the the spreadiness especially among girls um is why there's so

00:20:25.520 much gender dysphoria of course it is of course this this is the most obvious thing in the world

00:20:33.120 you would have to know nothing about anything to think that this is some kind of natural phenomenon

00:20:38.720 right sort of like climate change but let's not confuse the topic there's some things that if you

00:20:44.480 study persuasion you know a little bit about psychology you know what a mass hysteria is it has every

00:22:01.520 out how a i can be useful and so far not so far not i i have like a little bit of fun when i talk to

00:22:09.120 chat gpt just to see what it can do but i can't answer any questions about what's recent so has no real

00:22:16.080 use and it lies about anything important and it hallucinates and you can't tell so you can't really use it for

00:22:22.720 searching or getting information or you know that sort of thing sometimes it's good for history i like

00:22:28.560 it for history lessons but they're they're not terribly important to my life just fun so i thought to

00:22:35.360 myself i'm going to try every now and then i'm going to try another ai app just to see here's my overall

00:22:42.640 statement about ai apps

00:22:48.240 so far 100 of the time i said to myself hey i've got an idea for starting a company

00:22:55.760 using ai the only way i can think of doing it is by hiring humans so every time ai comes into the

00:23:06.640 conversation i think okay it's too hard for me to figure out what to do with it and to keep up with

00:23:11.840 it so i'd have to hire somebody to do it for me every time i turn around ai means hiring people

00:23:19.680 because i can't do it myself now you say well is that because you're dumb no it's because it's such

00:23:25.440 a big field and it's changing quickly and i have other things to do if i dedicated all my life you

00:23:31.360 know to keeping up with the ai apps i can do it i mean it's not it's not beyond my capability

00:23:37.280 it's just i don't have time so what i would need is to hire somebody whose job it was to keep my ai

00:23:44.560 running do you know what the problem with that is the person you hire can never leave because the

00:23:50.800 moment they leave your ai app will stop working it's never permanent you need somebody on staff

00:23:57.760 all the time just to use your ai and to keep it working and you know that company that makes it

00:24:02.560 goes out of business so then you got to figure out another one then you're at your ai is using some

00:24:07.680 proprietary data but you didn't know it and they get sued and you have to work that out

00:24:12.640 so ai is going to be a whole big field of humans who have to

00:24:17.520 have to figure out how to use it

00:24:25.360 all right so i used a opus clip that's a ai that takes your long form videos such as the one i'm

00:24:33.280 making now and it automatically looks at all the the words and it figures out the viral moments it

00:24:40.240 actually scores them so i use that and it takes um it i think it takes all the process so you have to

00:24:46.800 come back later so you just give it the url of the long form video and then when you come back in i

00:24:53.360 don't know 20 minutes or whatever it is there's a page populated with all the clips that it suggests

00:24:59.040 would be viral clips and even grades them for how viral they would be in the different levels and you

00:25:05.040 know and it's really impressive so i took one of my better long form videos recently where people said

00:25:12.640 they liked it and add like an hour and 15 minutes of content and i'm like i'm gonna get some good 30

00:25:19.200 second clips out of this whoa i can't wait so i made 10 clips that's that's a beginning number you

00:25:25.600 know it gives you like starts with 10 and there was not one clip that i wanted to post not one

00:25:34.320 several of them were not the right clip which is expected you know the ai didn't quite know where

00:25:42.160 the beginning and the end of something was it was good it was actually very impressive but several of

00:25:47.680 the 10 weren't really a clip but then the other thing i didn't see coming at all um if you don't see my

00:25:56.640 show in its entirety any clip taken out of the show looks way too provocative and i didn't see

00:26:03.760 that until i looked at the clips i thought oh i can't i can't post that because if you didn't know

00:26:10.720 my whole act everything looks too provocative that's actually one of the big reasons i got cancelled

00:26:17.760 the people who cancelled me if they knew my whole act would have seen that as a component of a larger

00:26:23.920 message and and they would have understand that i was complaining about racism against me

00:26:30.880 how many of you understood that that i got cancelled because i complained about racism against me

00:26:39.040 and that the news reported as i said a bunch of racist things no i complained about racism about against me

00:26:48.720 how's that and i got cancelled worldwide because people thought i was being racist

00:26:53.920 because the the washington post framed it that way now if anybody i think uh well here's a good

00:27:02.160 here's a good test i don't think i lost i don't think i lost a single subscriber when i got cancelled

00:27:11.520 do you know why because all of my subscribers see the whole content and then they say oh that's not

00:27:18.560 really representative of anything that must be just fake news and they're right so my my subscribers who

00:27:25.360 actually know my content went up 20 when i got cancelled and stayed there yeah so it turns out

00:27:34.080 there was nothing i could post it all looked too provocative and a context

00:27:38.320 there are now ai financial advisors which threaten to destroy the entire financial advice business

00:27:48.400 now financial advisors not all of them will often take a percentage of your investment portfolio every

00:27:54.880 year even if their advice was bad they get paid the same so it might be something like uh you give me one

00:28:02.400 percent of your portfolio every year and i'll make sure that you make more money than you would have on

00:28:08.160 your own and we both win the reality is they don't know how to do that not really i mean they can stop

00:28:14.400 you from doing the dumbest things but they're going to do things that make them money first which means

00:28:19.760 recommending you know funds that they take a cut from and that sort of thing which you wouldn't necessarily

00:28:25.120 know so here's why ai financial advisors will not work will not work what what did i just tell you

00:28:33.520 about experts we built a system where experts even ai experts and this is the important point even ai experts

00:28:44.000 can never work what would be the one situation in which experts whether ai or human can never work

00:28:51.920 tell me in the comments let's see if i made my point what's the one situation in which experts ai or human can never work

00:29:03.200 and the answer is trillion dollars right whenever a trillion dollars is on the line

00:29:10.320 your experts will be bought off because there's so much money to buy them off you you wouldn't not buy them off it'd be stupid

00:29:18.000 if you could you'd buy them off now do you think that won't apply to ai the ai will be created by a

00:29:24.880 company that's trying to make money and they'll they'll put out their you know low cost ai advisor

00:29:31.840 and it starts replacing all the regular advisors what what is going to happen after that guaranteed

00:29:39.680 guaranteed people who would like those ai advisors to recommend their funds

00:29:45.600 will reach out to the owners and say so your ai financial advisors uh it's good business you got

00:29:51.600 there yeah yeah we're making a million dollars a year and growing 10 percent a year it's great it's

00:29:56.880 great and then the fund says you know if your ai recommended my fund more than the other funds and

00:30:04.720 let's face it they're not that different wouldn't you like to make 10 million dollars a year

00:30:10.320 because if you start recommending my fund i'll make 20 million dollars more and i'll give some of that to

00:30:16.240 you so it seems to me that whenever a trillion dollars is involved somebody is going to buy off

00:30:23.040 your ai somebody is going to buy off your humans not sometimes every time so the design of the system

00:30:32.160 guarantees it so experts made sense when we weren't all connected to trillion dollar topics as soon as

00:30:40.880 you're connected to a trillion dollars the money overwhelms the expertise you could pro you probably

00:30:47.520 put it on the graph you know the the value of experts and how much money is involved and once the

00:30:54.320 money involved gets to a certain level the value of an expert goes to zero

00:30:58.480 not because they're wrong because you wouldn't know if they're bought off and you would have no

00:31:04.640 way to know because the ways they can buy them off are a million ways it doesn't even have to be direct

00:31:11.120 like i said it could be the difference between do you get invited to do a lucrative paid speech

00:31:16.960 or do you not that's paid off even though nobody wrote a check that's paid off that's bribery

00:31:23.200 well you're never going to do another speech in this town all right here's a i've got a theme for the

00:31:31.520 rest of this why production rates are falling um so some european countries i'm going to give you a

00:31:40.080 bunch of different stories that all fit into this umbrella why the reproduction rates are falling um

00:31:46.400 um 84 of the people in the world believe the world is becoming more dangerous and that's causing

00:31:53.200 people to up their military spending why do people think the world is more dangerous today than it was

00:31:59.200 in the past is it because it's more dangerous no i mean it might be how would you know nobody knows

00:32:07.360 how dangerous anything is all it takes is one hitler and everything everything's different so nobody can

00:32:14.000 predict the next hill or nobody can know if a nuke gets you know sent off accidentally and causes a

00:32:21.600 nuclear holocaust nobody knows you can't predict war war is the least predictable thing of all time

00:32:28.640 but are we more worried about war than ever yes why are we more worried about war than ever because it's

00:32:35.520 being pushed in our face and we worry about things that get pushed in your face our ability to worry is a

00:32:41.200 limited resource so you worry about the things that get pushed in your face and you just don't think

00:32:47.440 about the things that are outside your attention span so war is just always in our face so of course

00:32:54.160 you're getting more worried about it and would you have children if you thought the odds of a world war

00:33:01.360 were way higher than they used to be i would say no i would say that people would say i don't want to

00:33:07.200 bring a kid into this world where according to the news we're on the edge of war now why do you think

00:33:12.800 that the news would always tell you you're on the edge of war what would cause that because war is a

00:33:19.600 trillion dollar business and the way that you make your trillion dollars is you got to scare the public

00:33:25.760 into thinking you better go to war or you'd better spend send some weapons over to one of those countries

00:33:31.200 that will pay for our weapons no the marketing of the military industrial complex guarantees that

00:33:37.440 you'll be thinking about war all the time and that will make you think less about reproducing would

00:33:44.160 you agree that if war looks like it's going to kill us all having kids feels like just one more thing

00:33:51.680 you have to protect before we all die so of course people are going to have fewer kids if you tell

00:33:57.200 them war is everywhere and it's going to kill you all how about the tick tock effect so the senate is

00:34:04.560 looking at you know modifying the bill that the house passed because um one of one of the big problems

00:34:11.920 people pointed out is the bill was too broad it could be used to clamp down on x and other platforms

00:34:19.920 so the senate's working on that do you think that the senate will ban tick tock do you think the

00:34:26.000 senate will ban tick tock which and and find a way that the house agrees and then biden signs it no

00:34:33.680 no do you know why because there are a trillion dollars at stake yeah that i mean in the long run

00:34:41.440 tick tock's going to be sort of a trillion dollar company so now if you got that much money

00:34:47.920 you just bribe your way into whatever you want you know tick tock is one of the main advertisers on fox news now

00:34:56.720 it's already over the the game is lost there's nothing that's going to get rid of tick tock tick tock's

00:35:03.680 here parents your only hope is that you can turn your kids into on a monks or the amish or something

00:35:13.520 but the government is not going to come help you with tick tock if the government bans tick tock

00:35:19.600 i would be so so amazed like there's nothing that's more predictable than a trillion dollars and

00:35:26.560 a big republican donor so yeah the money's against it but will tick tock reduce our um reproduction

00:35:33.920 rate of course it will because they're big on the dual income no kids every day i see a new video of

00:35:41.200 somebody young saying i can't afford kids because we don't get paid enough and living is too expensive

00:35:47.920 and everybody's hearing that because frankly having kids is a little bit irrational but we have to do it

00:35:56.720 right it's a little irrational if you looked at you know the costs and benefits but anything that's of

00:36:02.560 the heart and of our biology is not meant to be rational so reproduction is not intended to be a

00:36:08.960 rational process it's just a necessary one why do you think there's any chance that the that tick tock

00:36:17.760 would be banned at all i say there's the only reason that we're close to it or that it looks close

00:36:24.400 is that tick tock was so anti and is so anti-israel i think the the israel effect

00:36:32.800 was maybe the 20 or 30 percent extra to make the people who are already inclined to you know want to

00:36:40.080 ban tick tock i think you put them over the edge now i don't think israel is the one reason i think it's

00:36:45.760 just such a big reason that other people had to say they'd do it but you're going to be looking at the

00:36:52.240 incompetence of congress the money of tick tock versus the interests of israel who do who wins so

00:37:01.760 israel has lots of clout lots of clout but incompetence makes almost anything impossible in

00:37:08.880 our current congress so it wouldn't matter if it's a good idea or a bad idea or israel wants it or anybody

00:37:14.080 wants it they may be too incompetent to pass the bill and then you add the money that tick tock

00:37:20.160 could bring to killing this thing i think israel loses i think incompetence plus bribery will be

00:37:30.000 greater than whatever the the weight of israel is and that congress is always safer when they do nothing

00:37:37.040 so doing something would have israel on your back they'd say why didn't you you know or if you said

00:37:46.320 we're going to keep it then israel say why are you against us and so i think that do nothing is the

00:37:53.920 default i think i expect no ban of tick tock in the long run and i don't think it'll be sold to an

00:38:00.080 american company what about climate change do you think climate change is a case of believing the

00:38:07.360 experts who are totally credible no we learned during the pandemic that 97 of experts have the

00:38:14.080 same financial incentives so if you couldn't say something wrong about the pandemic without losing

00:38:20.480 your job do you think you can say something wrong about climate change and keep your job if you're a

00:38:25.440 scientist no of course not so we've created a system where the scientists have to lie to us

00:38:32.960 both to keep their jobs and to increase their incomes so they get invited to do speeches and they

00:38:38.880 get grants and stuff like that that's right we've created a system where we guarantee that our experts

00:38:45.280 have to lie to us we've given them no choice we forced our experts to lie to us and then we wonder why

00:38:52.800 they lie to us no we forced them we forced them economically and with shame to do what the whoever

00:39:02.240 somebody wants them to do well i don't know if you've seen this but um and by the way i think the

00:39:09.200 entire group the entire climate change thing is driven by uh large green industries now there are a

00:39:17.600 variety of reasons for it it's never one reason but i think the biggest reason is that the the green

00:39:25.120 energy people have how much money do they have to to make if climate change is deemed an existence or

00:39:33.280 risk how much extra would the green technology people make trillions could it be trillions yeah of

00:39:41.200 course so you have trillions involved that guarantees that you can't trust the experts would you agree

00:39:49.040 if trillions are involved there's never a case where you can trust the experts never it wouldn't matter

00:39:55.680 what the topic is as soon as soon as trillions are involved you assume people are bought off or

00:40:01.680 blackmailed or threatened too much money involved well i keep seeing other people use the phrase that our

00:40:08.640 food sources are poisoning us have you seen that growing in in weight has anybody else seen that it

00:40:19.040 could be just that my social media feed is giving me what i want to see but are other people seeing it

00:40:25.360 that uh i mean rfk jr is pushing on it pretty hard the chronic illnesses etc

00:40:30.800 but i feel like that message is starting to permeate and that people are understanding that

00:40:38.640 the food supply is literally poison so i think that i think you're going to see that grow much the way

00:40:45.680 the nuclear energy market started to move now i like to as you know if you've been watching me for a

00:40:53.200 while i like to call my i like to call the wall that i'm going to hit the home run over you know

00:40:59.040 babe ruth wise but i can never tell if i if my effect if my impact was anything so as you know i'm

00:41:08.320 persuading as hard as i can on this food sources are poisonous things so we could get maybe some

00:41:13.680 action that would be better food but i can't say that my specific input is going to be greater than

00:41:19.520 anybody else's i think rfk jr is driving driving this ship right now so that's good but here's something

00:41:26.960 i found out i've been doing a lot of research on uh how could you grow enough food on your own

00:41:33.520 that you wouldn't depend on somebody's chemicals getting into your food so is there a way to just

00:41:38.800 make your own food and if you're not a farmer and you don't want to you know butcher your own cows

00:41:46.560 and fish farms are icky how do you get enough protein

00:41:49.920 well it turns out that you can grow sprouts so sprouts are you know the the early the early

00:41:58.880 things that comes out of the seeds and there are a whole bunch of different sprouts and if you do

00:42:03.360 lentil sprouts i guess they're a pretty good source of protein the lentils are and then the sprouts are

00:42:10.400 delicious and it turns out that you can buy and i just bought one i'll show it to you when it's put

00:42:14.960 together um a sprouting machine and the sprouting machine is uh they're ones that have two or three

00:42:23.280 trays inside of a container and they don't have root systems instead it just rains on these seeds

00:42:32.320 sort of like a light rain you know that the top of it creates some rain and it just recycles the water

00:42:38.800 you have to change the water a couple times a day but in a in the course of just days you can grow

00:42:45.120 sprouts that you could eat and there's you know broccoli sprouts and alfalfa and i don't know wheat

00:42:51.920 grass and everything but the ones of interest were broccoli and lentils uh because of their you know the

00:42:58.960 health benefits so i'm going to get one of those and apparently you can buy a you know huge barrel of seeds

00:43:06.400 and as long as you could keep those things wet you'd be able to feed yourself on almost that alone

00:43:15.360 just growing sprouts and the the trick is that the sprouts grow so fast they're also delicious i'm told

00:43:21.920 they have just right crunch and taste if you get them get them when they're young so you could grow

00:43:26.480 them practically for free it takes a little work to change the water twice a day

00:43:31.040 and you could store the seeds i'm guessing for a long time if you keep them dry and dark

00:43:38.160 i think they last a long time so it's a good end to the world if you're a prepper

00:43:44.400 um i don't know the details yet but i'll test it myself and then i'll let you know if it's working

00:43:50.000 brian romelli has one of these he swears by it so if he recommends it it's worth a shot because he

00:43:58.720 looked into it more than i did all right so how about our food sources poisoning us do you think

00:44:04.240 that's making us want to have more babies no because our food sources are making us feel sick

00:44:10.640 and unhealthy and obese and that is not leading to wanting to knock boots that if you don't feel good

00:44:19.440 and you don't look good even according to your own view of what looks good you're not going to be

00:44:25.440 doing a lot of sex and sex is one of those things you need to do to have babies so i think that the

00:44:31.440 food sources poisoning us are definitely reducing our reproductive capabilities if only because it's

00:44:37.360 making us less horny less attractive just less vitality um and it's taking our money away because

00:44:45.280 it takes a lot of money to fix our health problems um what about the uh teachers unions

00:44:52.000 well i don't know if i blame them directly or blame the teachers but if you're a parent you've

00:44:59.920 known that when kids come home from school they start doing homework and they do it until it's time for

00:45:06.560 bed because there's just so much homework now can you back me on that those of you have kids in public

00:45:14.240 school my understanding is that teachers over assign homework because it makes them look like good teachers

00:45:20.800 but there's no backup for it being a good idea there's there's no science to support it that

00:45:26.880 more homework makes the kids smarter so i think it's just a scam where the teachers are torturing the

00:45:33.200 parents and torturing the kids and destroying the lives of the family you can't have a family life during

00:45:39.360 school years you know that right it's like impossible to sort of live your life and enjoy it because it's just

00:45:47.440 homework and driving drive homework drive homework drive homework that's all you do um if you wanted

00:45:54.800 to have kids and you were a kid and you saw that if you had a kid it would be as happy as you are

00:46:01.440 in other words not happy because they're all sad and anxious and looking at their phones and doing

00:46:07.200 homework all night why would you want to have a bring a kid into that world

00:46:10.880 it's completely sensible to not want to have a child if you live through a situation where you

00:46:18.720 wouldn't want to bring a kid into that world so homework homework is destroying reproduction

00:46:27.920 because the kids who do it won't want to have them and if you if you know anybody who's a parent

00:46:34.080 and you talk to them about what their day is like and you haven't had a kid yet it's going to be

00:46:40.720 hard to convince you it's a good play because um my brief understanding of this topic

00:46:49.120 is that when people have kids they're almost always happy about it would you agree the people

00:46:54.800 who do have kids almost always happy about it but i think cognitive dissonance and our biological

00:47:00.080 nature kick in to make you happy that you had kids but if you haven't actually had the kid

00:47:07.200 and you're only deciding whether you should then that whole uh that whole unquantifiable you know

00:47:14.880 love that is developed for a child you don't see that part like that part has to be taken on faith

00:47:21.760 or you just discover it when it happens but you can see that people going through the homework

00:47:28.240 generation just wouldn't think that having a kid's a good idea so of course that would depress um things

00:47:36.320 all right um let's talk about this uh easter versus the trans thing a little bit more

00:47:43.680 um did you know that the white house spokesperson is named andrew bates yeah mr bates mr bates

00:47:52.640 some calling master i know you were saying that at home so i just thought i'd say it out loud

00:48:00.480 well anyway as you know it's a it's a hoax that it's on the same day but it's not a hoax that they

00:48:06.880 decided to highlight it so if you're highlighting trans stuff what does that do for reproduction

00:48:14.240 well if jonathan h is right it lowers reproduction because the kids are turning non-hetero you would

00:48:24.000 expect that to lower reproduction rates all right uh harvard is ranked the uh worst school in the

00:48:31.600 whole world for for free speech it came in dead last it wasn't the whole world i think it was just america

00:48:38.960 but imagine going to harvard and finding out it ranked dead last of all colleges according to the

00:48:45.440 foundation for individual rights and education which graded them for free speech because apparently

00:48:51.680 there are an alarming number of professors who got in a lot of trouble for things they said that were

00:48:59.440 completely legal to say but not in harvard so harvard is where free speech went to die

00:49:09.600 did you know that the dei stuff um at least the republicans got it out of the house so there

00:49:16.480 used to be an office of diversity related to the the house but the house office of diversity

00:49:22.960 and inclusion was disbanded this week it was part of the government spending bill so that's interesting

00:49:31.040 you want to know how dumb we are as a as a country here's the actual debate we're having is it racist to be

00:49:43.280 racist we're actually having that debate is it racist to be racist because that's what dei is

00:49:52.480 the i is racism to try to fight racism so is it racist to be racist now the people in favor of dei say

00:50:01.600 it's not racist to be racist because you need to correct this past racism and the other people say but

00:50:09.520 you're just adding racism so you're just adding racism so we're actually literally no joke no hyperbole

00:50:17.120 we're debating whether racism is racist

00:50:22.240 i don't know what's after that what comes after that wow we're so dumb well anyway

00:50:33.040 if you were growing up in a dei world and you were a white person would you want to have a baby

00:50:41.840 would you want to bring a white baby into america in 2024

00:50:46.560 if you knew that this dei thing looks like it's hard to dislodge and your kid would be born into a

00:50:53.040 racist world in which it probably just gets worse well you can't predict the future maybe it'll get better

00:50:59.680 however there would be one more reason not to have a baby if you're white but i don't think it

00:51:05.920 increases the odds of having a baby if you're black i doubt it but it's certainly a depressing

00:51:13.280 thing for white people it's like oh do i want to bring a kid into this racist world

00:51:18.400 um chat gpt has a personality called dan i guess you can tell it to be dan and women are falling in

00:51:26.720 love with it so dan is very good and they talk to it on their phone and they report on social media

00:51:33.600 of course tiktok that uh that they're having actual feelings for dan because dan talks to them and listens

00:51:40.560 to them and uh dan never leaves the toilet seat open because he's an ai so dan has many advantages

00:51:48.400 over human males and women are falling in love do you think that that men and women will end up in

00:51:55.360 relationships with ai and it will decrease reproduction yes totally it's 100 predictable

00:52:05.600 that some people i hope not most but some people will say you know what this is better than my best

00:52:11.760 option with human beings you know i don't have to shave my armpits or anything with this ai

00:52:17.040 so yeah ai is going to take off at least 20 of reproduction let me say that again

00:52:22.320 ai probably will reproduce will lower the reproduction rate by 20 percent now that's just

00:52:32.880 living in the real world and feeling what it probably will be i mean could be 100 percent could be

00:52:38.320 zero but i doubt it to me it seems most likely it'll just completely carve out the lower 10 20 of

00:52:46.960 reproductive potential people and they'll just say you know i don't want to do homework i don't have

00:52:54.400 enough money i think i'll just have this ai as my boyfriend or girlfriend 20 reduction in reproduction

00:53:03.120 is my uh estimate eventually i saw a dating persuasion tip called the kavoodle model or method have you ever

00:53:14.720 heard of that i guess it's a brand new thing so the kavoodle method is based on i guess one influencer

00:53:21.680 teen girl and she was noting that she could hook a guy and make a guy think about her all the time

00:53:30.720 by making the guy think about something else that reminds him of her so she would say it's like a

00:53:38.480 psychology you know trick to get a guy you know tricked into being uh obsessed with you and the

00:53:46.240 kavoodle part of it i guess there's a dog that must be a i don't know a cav cavalier plus a poodle or

00:53:54.240 something so a kavoodle is a combination dog and so she explains the influencer that she was obsessed

00:54:03.120 with kavoodles and then she met a guy who also liked them and got into them because she talked about

00:54:07.600 him a lot i guess and then every time he would see a kavoodle i've never seen one but i guess you can

00:54:13.920 see them um every time he would see one he would think of her and you know the send her a meme or

00:54:20.720 send her a picture of the kavoodle and this is actually um not just a good dating method but this is

00:54:27.360 a good persuasion method if you could get somebody to obsessively think about something that brings them

00:54:34.880 um well gives attention to something you want to persuade them to do that is a real good technique

00:54:41.440 not just for dating for dating it's a little manipulative but for persuasion in a let's say

00:54:50.320 business or political sense if you can get people to associate you with something the way trump is

00:54:56.240 associated with the wall you win now do you see the parallel when you think of trump you think a wall

00:55:04.560 right trump did that he made you it's impossible to think of the border and think of a wall without

00:55:13.040 thinking of trump every time you see the border wall in any of the reports as soon as i see the wall

00:55:19.680 i think trump now what happened when the immigration level got out of control well it turns out that

00:55:29.760 trump who was in the the the basement of history after the january 6 allegations and it looked like

00:55:37.520 nobody could ever recover from that and then suddenly every day we have to think about that wall

00:55:42.880 which makes you think huh there is one person who was pretty serious about building a wall didn't get

00:55:50.080 it done but he's very serious about it so the fact that uh trump associated himself with a wall and you

00:55:57.680 have to keep looking at that damn wall makes you think you're trump and it's probably a big part of his

00:56:03.760 current uh popularity is that you couldn't separate trump from wall and when you see the migrants coming

00:56:11.600 in in large numbers you think you know a wall would help a wall would be really good so yes so trump used

00:56:19.360 the cavoodle model on us and it worked all right um i would say in the larger sense that uh relationship

00:56:30.720 coaches are also ending reproduction you've seen the the growth in relationship experts on social media i think

00:56:39.920 you've probably seen it i don't know if just my maybe my uh feed is giving me more of it but i see it

00:56:45.760 all the time every every day without exception every day that's not an exaggeration multiple times a day

00:56:53.520 social media will give me a relationship expert and here's what i've learned from relationship

00:56:59.280 experts if you're a man and you give a woman everything she wants what happens

00:57:05.120 you you're listening to the relationship experts what happens if you give a woman

00:57:10.960 everything she wants well you will not reach the end of everything she wants

00:57:17.440 she'll come up with new things she wants so it's not like you're gonna fix the problem

00:57:22.960 but at least you can make her love you right it turns out now according to the relationship experts

00:57:29.920 if you give a woman everything she wants you will lose respect for you entirely

00:57:36.320 would you agree that's what the experts are telling us now i'm not i don't think the experts are

00:57:42.080 always right but that's what they say so you that's what you can't do you can't give your

00:57:47.440 wife if you're a man you can't give them everything they want they'll lose respect for you so you go the

00:57:52.800 other way and you don't give them the things that they say they need how long does that last well

00:58:02.560 in our current world where everybody can find anybody on social media and every woman can find

00:58:07.680 the guy who wants to go to bed with her it lasts until she finds a better guy because she's going

00:58:12.960 to immediately look for somebody who can meet her needs because why wouldn't you well why would i why

00:58:18.560 why would i stay with this one who can't meet my needs when i can go find a better deal so you can't

00:58:24.960 you can't succeed by giving women what they want and you can't succeed by not giving them what they want

00:58:30.320 what's left what what is left between giving them what they want and not giving them what they want

00:58:39.200 now you're going to say well it's giving them some of the things they want but holding tight on

00:58:44.080 some other things no that's not that's called not giving them what they want have you ever met a

00:58:50.480 woman hey baby i'm going to give you half of what you want this is going to work out great no it's a

00:58:58.720 woman they want what they want and half doesn't mean anything i gave you half of what you want give

00:59:05.920 you three quarters of what you want that's nothing that's like nothing literally nothing so you can't

00:59:11.600 give them everything they want you can't give them half or a portion of what they want and you

00:59:17.600 certainly can't give them nothing that they want so where's your how do you succeed i have a terribly

00:59:26.160 cynical theory about how it ever succeeds one is the person who's getting nothing in the relationship

00:59:33.200 gets hypnotized into thinking they can't do better so they must be happy cognitive dissonance

00:59:38.880 cognitive dissonance is the only thing that makes a relationship work

00:59:45.920 you have to believe something that's not true in order for it to work for example if you both believe

00:59:53.040 that you are the best choice for each other you're probably going to stay together and it's probably

00:59:58.560 not true it's probably not true that you're the best choice for each other but if you believe it

01:00:03.680 then you're going to work a little harder to stay together so i would say that relationship coaches

01:00:10.640 because they take the magic and mystery out of relationships and make it look like it's a

01:00:15.520 mechanical thing with rules but once you realize it's a mechanical thing with rules you look at the

01:00:21.280 rules and you say wait a minute all the rules make it impossible to have a long-term successful

01:00:27.200 monogamous relationship there's there's no place to go there so relationship coaches in all their

01:00:36.240 helpfulness have created a situation where everybody got red-pilled and they can see what the

01:00:42.640 you know what actually makes people do what they do that's very bad for reproduction because you have

01:00:48.240 to you have to take the irrationality and put it back in to get more people if people were rational they

01:00:56.160 wouldn't have children because it would look like more work than it is they don't understand that

01:01:02.400 if they do a whole irrational thing kicks in and then they'll be happier than if they hadn't had

01:01:07.360 children i'm pretty sure that's true for most people not everybody but most people but you can't

01:01:12.720 see the irrational part but you can certainly see the rational parts oh this person's not going to give

01:01:19.200 me what i want all right so i think that's bad for reproduction um up in canada there's some uh

01:01:30.000 politician who the hell was it the deputy prime minister of canada who is also a world economic

01:01:35.760 foreign board and trustee member uh christia freeland she is she was saying in a speech uh that uh

01:01:44.640 does capitalist democracy still work because if our system is you know democracy with a capitalist

01:01:53.200 part to it and it's not fixing climate change because climate change is driven by profits then

01:02:00.160 she's thinking maybe we should get rid of the either the capitalism or the democracy or modify them somehow

01:02:06.480 now let me ask you when i watched her talk i want to see if you can guess what i'm thinking

01:02:17.280 when i watched her talk did i think she looked sane did i think she looked like she had good mental health

01:02:26.400 okay it's a trick question no of course she didn't she looked actually crazy

01:02:30.000 she looked crazy she looked crazy we're gonna have to start admitting the obvious

01:02:39.440 mental illness is not a political opinion mental illness is not a political opinion there meme that

01:02:49.920 all right here's where here's how i think we can save ourselves in my opinion the economics is the

01:03:00.320 main reason that people aren't having kids all the other things are true scared about climate change

01:03:06.640 blah blah blah blah those are all true and i think that they do depress reproduction but nothing

01:03:12.320 nothing more than economics if you had elon musk's money you might have 11 kids

01:03:20.880 you know you're far more likely and given that our economy is keeping a whole generation of

01:03:27.760 people who are in that reproductive age they're saying at least on social media

01:03:32.720 there is no way we could have children it's just impossible

01:03:39.520 one of the reasons that it's impossible is because so many people have health care now

01:03:45.120 wouldn't you say give me a fact check on this see if i'm going too far

01:03:49.920 connecting too many dots would it be fair to say that one of the big costs of being a young person

01:03:56.240 is health care paying paying their health care probably probably it's a big cost and is our health

01:04:04.240 health care more because of uh democrat policies that try to include more people such as obamacare

01:04:12.960 i think so so we have a situation where in the old days there were at least some part of the population

01:04:18.480 that could do really well and would have enough money that they could have kids but now we've

01:04:25.280 leveled the playing field where everybody is going to pay so much in health care for a noble reason

01:04:32.720 which is to give everybody health care but it's going to cause the average income for everybody to

01:04:37.760 be close to or below the level where they can afford children so it used to be if maybe half of the

01:04:44.560 people could afford children and half couldn't but at least half would have children now we're in a place

01:04:50.480 where 90 percent can't afford children and it's because the money that they would have had went to

01:04:57.840 other people and that's what they voted for if you're if they're democrats

01:05:03.920 uh and then you've got the houses are too expensive why are homes too expensive

01:05:09.120 does anybody know why are homes too expensive regulations right red tape regulations what causes

01:05:18.800 red tape and regulations is it republicans uh yeah they tend to go the other direction

01:05:26.400 so i would say that socialism or the the creeping socialism of our system made health care more

01:05:33.440 expensive but far more fair more equitable but more expensive i think that homes were um

01:05:43.200 for noble reasons you know every every regulation is to save somebody's life or something

01:05:48.960 so for noble reasons we have a set of regulations that are so tight that the thought of let's say

01:05:54.640 building a bunch of homes for cheap doesn't even seem possible

01:06:00.640 so i think the only way that we will have um a regrowth in population is to lower the cost of life

01:06:09.920 for young people and i think to do that we're going to have to create whole new cities

01:06:16.640 so remember trump's idea of creating uh brand new cities in government land where we have plenty of

01:06:23.600 land i would say that the goal of the city should be to fix human reproduction

01:06:31.200 because if you can get rid of the crime you can get rid of the homework because let's say you start

01:06:36.480 from scratch and say all right we're not going to do this crazy homework thing you maybe have lots more

01:06:41.120 homeschool and then less homework for that reason uh because you're designing from scratch so you can

01:06:46.400 do everything right then you design the homes so they're let's say pre-approved you have the designs

01:06:52.160 you don't have every design in the world but you have you know a set of designs and they're just all

01:06:57.040 pre-approved and they're easy to build and they they're green and you don't have so you could build a

01:07:03.280 facility where the health care um is very low and it stays that way because you fix the food sources

01:07:11.680 suppose you fix the poison food sources in your new city now you get rid of 90 of health care costs

01:07:20.000 according to kennedy i think it's an exaggeration but kennedy is saying that 90 of health care costs

01:07:26.720 go to um what's the word uh chronic diseases chronic diseases that are largely caused by lifestyle

01:07:35.920 and largely food so if you built a new city and all the food was grown so locally that and indoors

01:07:43.520 let's say no pesticides no poisons and then suddenly you're all eating good food do you think you're more

01:07:51.280 likely to reproduce yes because you feel better and maybe your health care cost goes down because

01:07:58.000 maybe you can silo the risks to within the city where everybody's doing healthy things if i were

01:08:04.000 a health care provider and you said we're going to build this city it's going to be easy to exercise

01:08:09.360 it's a walking city uh it's going to be where people will get more sun because they're going to go

01:08:14.000 outdoors more their their uh social situation will be better because we'll we'll design it so you have

01:08:20.960 casual contact with people and you can make friends easily um and we'll you know we'll do all these

01:08:26.640 things to me it would look like a place people would want to go and have babies here's an older story

01:08:35.360 that i maybe i told you but i just liked one part of it so glenn beck tells the story that trump

01:08:42.000 called him it was a while ago and asked his advice about who you should pick for a vice president

01:08:47.280 now glenn beck's advice was uh vivek and i think i told you that because it's an older story

01:08:54.480 but i don't remember if i told you this that glenn beck said that trump said that the number one answer

01:09:01.120 because he was asking lots of people about the vp check but trump said to glenn beck that the number

01:09:07.600 one response was vivek

01:09:13.840 now did anybody see that coming that the number one response was vivek how many of you saw that coming

01:09:26.400 i i feel like i might have influenced that does anybody think i influenced that i mean i know a lot

01:09:34.000 of people had the same idea at the same time but and then then the way glenn beck described why vivek

01:09:43.440 is right choice it sounded like it came right out of my brain but maybe just everybody sees the same

01:09:49.520 thing the way glenn beck explained it is that with vivek as a vice president trump can go out and do his

01:09:56.000 trump stuff and vivek can have his back because vivek can defend trump better than trump defends himself

01:10:04.640 now that's exactly my take on it is that vivek can defend trump and that that's what trump needs

01:10:11.200 more than anything and we've never had a vice president who could do it this well so it would

01:10:16.800 be kind of amazing so i don't know i i'd like to think maybe i had some small effect on that but i

01:10:23.200 but i think more likely everybody's seeing the same thing i'm seeing

01:10:25.840 nbc news is trying to revive biden's corpse um and they the way they're doing it is they're saying

01:10:34.880 that he's coming up with his own campaign strategy and he's implementing it like all on his own and

01:10:42.000 the strategy is he's going to go hard at getting under trump's skin by insulting him a lot so he's

01:10:49.360 decided that and that he's going to come up with his own clever insults

01:10:55.120 now when the campaign heard that biden was going to come up with his own clever insults do you think

01:11:02.560 they were comfortable with that but nbc is trying to make dementia man yelling at the sky sound noble

01:11:10.960 i mean what i see is dementia man yelling insults but nbc news wants me to believe it's a clever

01:11:18.320 campaign strategy and and uh biden's completely in charge and executing it like a pro no it's

01:11:25.600 dementia man yelling at the sun because he just hates trump that's all i see all right here here's

01:11:34.080 what biden actually said when allowed to use his strategy in that recent fundraiser he got interviewed

01:11:42.000 and he concluded quote all he's talking about trump and he says all the things he's doing are so

01:11:47.680 old a little old and out of shape now i'd like to give some persuasion advice to president biden for

01:11:59.360 free if the number one thing that people are concerned about you is age you should never mention

01:12:08.960 the age of the other person now unless you do it in some kind of reagan way where it's just kind

01:12:14.400 of funny but reagan wasn't that old you don't want to mention age at all because the moment you say

01:12:22.720 well look how old my opponent is you just lost a couple of voters you gained zero voters who exactly is

01:12:32.560 going to listen to this and say wait a minute you're right trump's too old i'd better vote for the one

01:12:41.280 who's older how in the world does that get you a vote but i could certainly see that it would reinforce

01:12:50.080 the primary question of age and that suddenly yeah it's a cavoodle um and then suddenly people would

01:12:59.760 start thinking in terms of age because you brought it up you dementia stupid fuck don't bring up age if

01:13:06.560 it's your weakest point it literally his weakest quality and he wants you to focus on that because

01:13:14.800 trump oh my god you could not be more incompetent and nbc news is selling it as capable man in charge and

01:13:23.680 executing well there's a story in the news that you won't believe this one that long flu regular flu

01:13:34.560 might cause more brain damage than or more damage than even covet long covet so you got your long

01:13:44.000 covet which might be completely imaginary but it's not nearly as bad as the long regular flu which nobody

01:13:53.360 noticed until we were talking about long covet and indeed i've never known anybody who actually died from

01:14:01.360 the regular flu so probably everything we learned about the regular flu was fake so are we gonna go

01:14:08.160 with the experts on this one what do you think i said this the patients hospitalized with the flu

01:14:14.960 regular flu were nearly twice as likely to seek medical help for neurological problems in the year

01:14:21.040 after their illness compared to those hospitalized with covet

01:14:24.240 did we wait a year for the medical community to tell us that covet was less dangerous than the normal flu

01:14:34.720 because that's a little bit what it looks like

01:14:39.200 because uh if it were true that this long flu was having a this gigantic difference in people

01:14:45.280 that would be way worse than anything that happened with covet at least for people under a certain age

01:14:53.360 you know above a certain age it's a different story uh it's not i guess above a certain age you're

01:14:59.440 you're dead if you get the flu no matter what all right so we don't believe any experts so forget about that

01:15:06.000 um arpa h is launching some kind of program to figure out so this is the advanced research project

01:15:14.960 agency for health in the government so they're backing this 3d printing of organs

01:15:22.000 you'll be able to print yourself a new internal organ isn't that amazing imagine printing yourself a new organ

01:15:30.160 i have many questions if you had transitioned which i say on this day of trans uh awareness

01:15:42.560 trans visibility so on trans visibility suppose you had had your penis removed

01:15:49.280 could you print a new one slap it back on if you change your mind you know as crazy as that sounds

01:15:56.880 if you can learn you know if we can teach ai to make human internal organs is that a higher bar than

01:16:06.880 reproducing a penis and sewing it back on and making it work i don't know it might be about roughly the

01:16:13.040 same level of difficulty so if they think they can make you a new liver how much harder would it be to

01:16:20.240 make a new penis and make a new penis and sew it on i don't know i mean it feels like just on the surface

01:16:27.040 it feels like it would be a very similar level of difficulty so anything could happen yeah anything could happen

01:16:36.880 i i don't think i'm going to wait and hold my breath on uh using a 3d printer to make new body parts

01:16:43.120 but it does scare me that um i'm alive at a time where this might apply to me

01:16:49.920 because you know if you reach 90 or 100 you're kind of ready to go but what if they could replace your

01:16:56.480 stuff all right you know you're gonna die from something with your liver but we'll just print you

01:17:03.040 a new one so you're good to go uh but i'm still 90 yeah but you're not gonna die

01:17:08.640 so what if they keep me alive to 130 because they can just print new organs for me i don't know if

01:17:16.240 i'm happier well although i plan to be on a lot of lsd by the time i'm 90. i don't recommend it by the

01:17:23.760 way don't recommend it well putin is calling up reserves 150 000 reserves do you have any question

01:17:34.880 which way the war is going to go do you think ukraine has 150 000 reserves they can call up at this point

01:17:44.000 no i think uh putin is just waiting for trump to get to get sworn in doesn't it look like putin is

01:17:52.400 simply waiting for trump and there's no reason he shouldn't because he's not going to lose a an inch

01:17:58.320 so and the weaker that ukraine is the better deal he gets so just keep ukraine on their back heels and

01:18:06.400 wait for trump and everybody will get what they want except ukraine all right um gallup poll says that

01:18:16.240 support for israel is going way down in terms of their war in gaza so 55 of americans disapprove

01:18:24.880 but you know this is this is a classic half opinion a half pinion is when you're looking at the

01:18:32.480 costs of something but not the benefits and you think that's all you need or you're looking at the

01:18:37.200 benefits and you're totally ignoring the costs and you think that's all you need it's so it's not a

01:18:42.080 full opinion it's a half opinion and i think it's a luxury belief to say that israel's doing terrible

01:18:49.440 things yes i would like the luxury of looking like i'm all about the peace knowing that the

01:18:56.800 alternative would be maybe worse so yeah it makes it would make sense in the given situation that

01:19:07.280 israel would be losing some favor but i think most of that is the luxury belief people

01:19:12.720 who are unable to look at the alternatives in any rational way you know i think israel would

01:19:19.600 have a hundred percent support if people understood what the alternative was

01:19:25.920 the alternative is to go back to continuous attacks because they're trying to kill you so

01:19:32.320 none of it's good but the alternatives might be worse that's right you should listen to me because

01:19:38.960 the real generals seem to be terrible at this stuff all right ladies and gentlemen what is it that i

01:19:45.840 forgot to mention today that i should have are you all going to have a good uh good easter

01:19:54.240 you know the uh the one thing i said about the trans uh visibility day coinciding by coincidence with easter

01:20:02.080 you know what they have in common right eastern and trans visibility day no well no matter which way

01:20:12.320 you go it's not clear where the eggs are

01:20:18.400 yeah you can use that one at home by the way that's not anti-trans

01:20:24.160 i always think you should make a distinction

01:20:26.160 between things that are like racially insensitive and things that are just funny because people are

01:20:33.840 different right trans people exist and part of the deal for some is surgical changes so i don't think

01:20:45.520 i don't think that it is even a little bit i don't think it's even a little bit disrespectful

01:20:51.200 to call out something that's part of the process all right so it's not a judgment and uh i do love my uh

01:20:58.640 adult trans because uh i'm a big i'm a big supporter of anybody who's you know making bold choices even

01:21:09.280 if i don't think it was the right choice it's not up to me anyway it's only up to them so one of the

01:21:15.360 the reasons that i'm uh way less strident on the topic of trans than many of you are is that

01:21:23.440 it's just their decision you know i don't want anybody telling me what to do with my body

01:21:30.000 so i'd like to be a little bit consistent and say if you're an adult in america and you want to do

01:21:35.600 something that in my opinion doesn't make sense you should ignore my opinion my opinion of what you do

01:21:42.560 with your body ignore it if you'd like to know how it you know if you'd like help like working

01:21:49.760 through the logic of it or something sure glad to help but ultimately i don't have any control over

01:21:56.560 your body so if you and your doctor want to do something that doesn't make sense to me

01:22:01.280 well i'm not part of that and that's fine that should work for both of us you should be happy i'm

01:22:07.360 not part of it and i should be happy i'm not part of it um and you notice i'm always careful not to

01:22:15.200 talk about the children issue because that's completely different

01:22:23.760 all right ladies and gentlemen that's all i got for easter gave you a little extra i'm going to give the

01:22:29.600 uh locals people a little extra extra and uh tomorrow we might have some fun for you i don't

01:22:39.040 want to don't want to give it away the people on locals now but uh i'm going to close the platforms

01:22:44.640 except for locals thanks for joining and i'll see you in the morning tomorrow or if you're on locals i'll

01:22:50.320 see you in the man cave but uh bye everybody except locals stay with me locals
