Transcript
00:00:00.000
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.
00:00:12.900
It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and I guarantee this will be the best thing you've
00:00:16.980
ever seen in your life. Yeah, in your life. If you'd like to take it up to a level that's even
00:00:23.120
higher than that, it's hard to imagine. All you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass
00:00:27.380
of tankard chalice of stye and a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with
00:00:32.200
your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the
00:00:36.560
dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called Simultaneous
00:00:41.240
Sip. Go. I think it was better with the Joe Biden whisper at the end. The Simultaneous Sip.
00:00:53.240
No? You're sick of that already? All right. Well, I thought that would catch on with everybody.
00:01:00.880
Let's talk about all the news. The news. Well, if you were subscribing to Dilber Reborn,
00:01:08.320
you would be seeing that the boss is hiring a batshit crazy woman to work in the office,
00:01:13.820
and the staff is wondering why he didn't notice. And the boss says he's bad at reading faces.
00:01:22.340
Anyway, you'd see that if you were a subscriber on either X or the Locals platform. The other day,
00:01:28.520
I was looking through some boxes, just trying to organize some of my old stuff, and I found my
00:01:34.380
hypnosis diploma. It was 1981. The Clemente, if you want the French pronunciation, the Clemente School
00:01:45.260
of Hypnosis in San Francisco. It doesn't exist anymore, but it did. And a number of people had
00:01:52.300
questions about that because I posted the diploma. And I saw that James Pison said to me, he said,
00:02:01.980
hypnosis, in quotes, as the masses define it, isn't real, Scott. Sorry to burst your Svengali
00:02:09.300
crave bubble. Suggestibility is the actual and closest thing to hypnosis that is currently measurable
00:02:15.480
and actionable by science. But keep on keeping with your master juju pseudoscience.
00:02:24.420
Excellent. Have I ever told you that if anybody could figure out what hypnotists could actually do,
00:02:29.960
you would kill us all? So I want more of this. I want more of James saying, your powers are not
00:02:40.280
real. It's completely safe to listen to everything you say. You could not possibly hypnotize me.
00:02:46.940
A number of other people piled in and said, Scott, my mind is far too strong to be hypnotized.
00:02:54.620
To which I say, excellent. So what you're saying is you wouldn't know if you were being hypnotized
00:03:02.480
because your mind's too strong. You can't even conceive of it. Yeah. If you think you can't be
00:03:08.940
hypnotized, there's a good chance you already were. Anyway, one of the things that I was asked is,
00:03:17.280
how long after I took my hypnosis class did my career take a change for the better? And the answer
00:03:25.000
is 1981 is when I got the diploma. 1988 is when I submitted Dilbert Comics for syndication. So
00:03:34.020
six years later. But the point I wanted to make is that hypnosis skills grow over time.
00:03:42.080
Because what you do is you combine it with other things you pick up about persuasion and influence
00:03:49.300
and it all becomes one big larger bag of tricks. So just getting your hypnosis degree does not give
00:03:57.580
you a superpower right away. But if you check back 20 years later, that person is almost certainly going
00:04:05.680
to be doing well. So it's something that builds over time. Well, the sadness trolls keep coming up.
00:04:14.880
I'm going to tell you the tell for the sadness trolls. You probably don't have them. I think they only
00:04:21.100
hit the larger accounts that they're trying to discourage from spending time on X. But the sadness
00:04:27.000
trolls have two tells, which makes them hilarious. Because when they show up as just artificial people,
00:04:34.080
then you don't have to worry about what they say. So one of the tells is they have a small account
00:04:40.380
and they're definitely not my followers or fans, but they follow me. That's the first tell.
00:04:48.260
They don't agree with anything I say and they have tiny little accounts, but they follow me.
00:04:54.520
Now, the reason they do that is that they'll get an alert as soon as I post and they go in first.
00:04:59.340
So part of the troll game, the professionals, I assume these are organized. I don't think these
00:05:05.500
are individuals. They make sure that they follow you so that they can get there first.
00:05:11.920
If there's one thing I can tell you, there's no Democrats who are following me organically.
00:05:17.860
I don't think there's any, like just none, because they don't want to be exposed to unpleasant thoughts.
00:05:25.340
But the trolls don't mind because they want to respond as soon as possible.
00:05:30.180
So the first thing I do is when I see one of these trollish accounts, I always look to see if they
00:05:35.660
follow me. Always. Well, not always. 90% of the time. The other thing is they have a name that has
00:05:43.100
several numbers at the end. Like they couldn't be bothered to test to find a real good name.
00:05:50.240
They took one like Jackson x53213265. Now, who would open a real account and accept the default
00:06:02.520
weird number name? Only a troll. And the reason a troll would do it is because they're in a hurry
00:06:09.160
and they have multiple accounts and it doesn't really matter to them because they're not trying
00:06:14.360
to send a true impression of who they are. They're trolls. They're artificial. The other
00:06:21.160
thing is that they often have little American flags so that they look like they might not be
00:06:27.680
Democrat trolls. The ones that are actually just real people who are also trolling you,
00:06:34.920
they usually have the little blue wave in there or a Ukrainian flag. Those might actually be real
00:06:42.660
people. But the ones who pretend that maybe they're just patriots, those are the trolls.
00:06:49.500
Anyway, that's how you tell them. So they're very active because it's the political season.
00:06:55.200
And it's a real thing, by the way. I don't know if it... Do you all know that's a real thing?
00:07:00.260
That the trolls are literally paid? Do you all know that's real? Because it might sound like it's
00:07:06.400
some weird conspiracy theory I'm giving you, but that's all demonstrated. That's what we know who
00:07:11.420
did it the last time. We know who was in charge. It's a well-known, understood process.
00:07:20.340
Well, did you know that the Imperial College in London figured out how to genetically engineer
00:07:26.020
bacteria to make vegan leather? So it's not real leather, but it's bacteria. And I guess the bacteria
00:07:34.120
can also change its color. So you can make yourself a black wallet or a brown wallet, I guess.
00:07:42.640
And that'll save a whole bunch of animals. And then we won't have to use artificial colors.
00:07:49.220
Anyway, I don't know. If you want a wallet made out of bacteria, you might have one pretty soon.
00:07:56.140
Elon Musk, I don't know when this video was. It might have been a while ago. I just saw a video
00:08:01.180
of him walking with some celebrity who I can't remember. And he was explaining that Tesla can't
00:08:12.200
build 100 gigafactories, but if other big companies were building them, that you'd only need 100 gigafactories
00:08:18.460
to power the entire world. Now, the gigafactories are the big battery storage facilities. And they
00:08:26.280
would have to be enormous. We're talking about bigger than the Empire State Building sort of thing,
00:08:31.260
enormous facilities. But if you build 100 of them, you would essentially have sustainable energy
00:08:37.680
forever, presuming that you set up a commensurate amount of solar panels to charge the batteries.
00:08:45.540
Do you believe that? I'm just looking at a comment. It sounds like BS. I don't know.
00:08:55.100
Here's the thing. If you don't believe it, you're betting against Elon Musk's ability to engineer and
00:09:00.840
do math. Are you comfortable doing that? I'm not. I'm not comfortable saying that he got the math wrong.
00:09:08.540
I feel like he spent some time. Maybe it's exactly what he does and you don't do for a living.
00:09:16.460
He figures that stuff out. So I'm going to say it's probably more likely true than not.
00:09:23.020
But I would add that we don't know what the environmental situation is and what happens
00:09:29.640
with all the old batteries and the old solar panels. That's an issue. It might be solvable,
00:09:35.300
but it's certainly an issue. Anyway, I like to put that out there as some optimism that if you
00:09:41.540
added nuclear power to that, well, you wouldn't need, if you had nuclear power, you don't need the
00:09:48.340
batteries. So anyway, everything's moving in the right direction and we could solve climate change
00:09:55.400
in probably five years. If every, if all the big companies said, we'll, we'll chip in,
00:10:01.700
we'll build a gigafactory. Well, in other updates, we'll get to the politics in a minute.
00:10:09.120
Bri.ai, the prince of fakes, you know him on the X account. He's inventing a sex toy that can also
00:10:18.420
talk dirty to you using AI. So he's using, he's using advanced tools to develop this sex toy and
00:10:29.100
presumably you'll be able to send it for manufacturing. And, and he's been testing it
00:10:34.100
now on X. You can see the whole process from beginning to end. It's kind of fascinating to
00:10:39.320
see what one person can do. So we, we currently have a situation where one person with one computer
00:10:46.200
can build a whole commercial product. Now, I guess we can always do that. It's, you know,
00:10:52.260
we've been able to do that for a while. You'd have to send it out to have a prototype made and that
00:10:57.660
sort of thing, but you could basically be your own company, just one person. And, and he's modeling
00:11:03.320
that one person building an industry. It's just fun to watch. Even if you don't care about the product,
00:11:08.980
it's just fun to watch somebody who has lots of skills, put them together and see if they can do a
00:11:15.080
thing. Ontario, the wait is over. The gold standard of online casinos has arrived. Golden Nugget Online

00:12:17.840
Well, here's one thing I can tell you about my audience.
00:12:23.780
I'm seeing some funny memes go by in the locals' comments. You're not watching me if you're in
00:12:31.000
Brazil, unless you have a VPN, I guess. But Brazil has censored the locals' feed. So if you're on the
00:12:39.420
locals' platform, you can't be watched in Brazil. Now, let me ask you this. Do you think the
00:12:47.020
Brazilians came up with that on their own? Do you think the Brazilian government said, oh, we've got to
00:12:53.340
got to block that locals' platform? I doubt it. Sort of feels like maybe our government
00:13:01.040
might have been a little bit behind that. So it's illegal to watch me in Brazil. To which I say,
00:13:10.020
excellent. Excellent. Hey, Brazilians, guess what you can't watch? Well, why do you think they won't
00:13:19.280
let you watch me, Brazilians? Do you think they won't let you watch me because they're trying to
00:13:25.320
monitor the poor quality entertainment? And they've decided, oh, that's just not good
00:13:31.500
entertainment. Can't watch that guy. Do you think that's why I'm blocked? Nope. Nope. Well, and the
00:13:40.160
other question is, is it about me or is it about somebody else who's on Locals? Because, you know,
00:13:46.820
it could be somebody else who's on Locals. But it's the same issue. They're not blocking me because
00:13:53.060
I'm wrong. They're not blocking other people because they're wrong. They're only going to
00:13:57.180
block you if you're right. Right? It's telling the truth that's the problem. People lying is
00:14:06.140
everybody. If they blocked people who lied, they'd have to close all of social media because
00:14:10.960
it's pretty much 80% lies. But Locals is the special lies. Oh, these are the special kind.
00:14:19.280
We better block these lies. These are the terrible ones.
00:14:25.260
No, it's because it's the truth and they're preventing the truth. There's no other way to
00:14:30.540
look at it. All right, here's my theme today. The gaslighting is not working so well. As you know,
00:14:38.400
you've been living in a gaslit environment. And the gaslighters have been telling you quite a few
00:14:45.520
things. For example, 2016, the election was largely dominated by the Russia collusion hoax
00:14:53.280
that we know is a Democrat slash intelligence agency hoax. But in 2020, we had the Hunter's
00:15:02.960
laptop hoax. Oh, that's a Russian hoax. And then Biden ran on the fine people hoax.
00:15:10.280
So that's two elections in a row dominated by hoaxes. And in both cases, the Democrats and
00:15:18.420
the intelligence people created them. In 2024, just for consistency, the main theme is the January 6th
00:15:28.000
hoax. Also known as the Trump is a threat to democracy hoax, which goes well with the 91
00:15:35.000
indictment hoax. Now, the 91 indictments really happened. But if you look at the quality of them
00:15:41.620
and the types of things he's indicted for, it all looks like a hoax to me or an op, if you prefer.
00:15:48.480
And let me tell you, if you have three elections in a row, and all three of them are quite obviously
00:15:57.680
hoax driven events, you can't say it's a coincidence. It would be more accurate to say that
00:16:06.500
gaslighting the public is the operating system of the country. And there's the most basic thing you
00:16:13.600
need to know about America is that nothing's real. It's the most important thing you need to know,
00:16:19.720
that nothing's real. And when I say nothing, I mean nothing about politics, you know, and war,
00:16:24.780
which is politics. So we'll give you some examples of that. But I'd like to offer a competing hypothesis
00:16:34.020
to this. So the first hypothesis is that bad people are intentionally making up rumors and
00:16:42.180
conspiracy theories and gaslighting the public. But I'd like to try out a little pattern recognition
00:16:51.120
for you. Do you know how I always say that Democrats appear mentally ill? But we don't really mention
00:16:59.520
what that mental illness is. Sometimes we say TDS, which is a real thing and a genuine illness.
00:17:05.540
But it seems deeper than that, doesn't it? Like there's something below that that's causing that.
00:17:12.180
And I'd like to suggest that if you were to look at the dominant patterns coming from Democrats,
00:17:19.120
you can actually identify the specific mental illness. Allow me to try it. Have you noticed
00:17:27.360
the Tucker Carlson theory that they blame you for what they're doing? So whatever they're doing,
00:17:33.740
they blame you for. You've all seen it. What mental illness or condition is that common to?
00:17:40.880
Somebody blames you for what they're doing. Somebody blames you for what they're doing. But not just once.
00:17:46.260
All the time. All the time. If you're late for dinner, they say, if they're late, they say you're late.
00:17:55.700
If they're cheating on you, they say you're cheating on them. If they're mean to you,
00:18:01.440
they say you're mean to them. If they're giving you no attention, they say you're giving me no
00:18:09.500
attention. Am I right? Now, 100% of people who have experience with narcissists will say, oh, yeah.
00:18:16.820
Yeah. You can't even believe it. Like if you see it once, you say, well, that's weird. Maybe just an
00:18:22.780
oddity. But if you're in a situation where over and over and over again, they're blaming you of
00:18:29.580
specifically what they're doing. That's narcissism. Here's another element of narcissism. And see if
00:18:39.020
you can find this pattern. A narcissist is only interested in what you can do for them.
00:18:45.460
Am I right? That's a basic definition of a narcissist. Not even the least bit interested
00:18:53.180
in you. It's what can you do for me? How can I get your resources transferred to me? How can I get
00:19:00.340
all of your attention and all of your everything to me? What am I doing for you? Yeah. It's what can
00:19:09.420
you do for me? In this case, the me would be Democrats. And the me would be, hey, let's do
00:19:16.360
some DEI so that the things you have can be transferred to us. Why? Well, because of all
00:19:23.740
the discriminating you do against us. That's why. To which I say, that's exactly the opposite of what
00:19:31.180
has been happening in this country for 30 years. White men have been overtly, directly, massively
00:19:37.660
discriminated against for 30 years. But what do the narcissists say? They say, you're discriminating
00:19:45.500
against me. And then they ask you to pay for it. That's exactly what narcissists do. They say, you're
00:19:53.020
the problem, even though you're the one, the narcissist is doing all that and you're not. And that you must
00:19:59.140
pay me for it. Like you owe me. There's something you better do to make up for the fact that you're so
00:20:04.800
bad, even though they're just projecting. Now, if you go down the line and see the consistency of it,
00:20:12.120
the thing that you thought was socialism probably isn't. The thing you thought was socialism
00:20:17.920
probably isn't. There is some of that, and there are definitely Marxists, etc. So I'm not going to say
00:20:24.000
it doesn't exist. But I think we're confusing the narcissism, which is you owe me because you've been
00:20:30.800
bad. You better give me some stuff with some kind of actual political theory. Because very few people
00:20:38.800
have a political theory. They just want stuff. And they're just sort of acting out their projection
00:20:44.080
plus their sense of entitlement. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. Now, I've also made the
00:20:52.420
observation that a lot of the evil people in the news, you'll hear this terrible story about
00:20:57.020
somebody doing some woke thing that's just evil. And then you'll see a picture of the person,
00:21:07.340
You know, I'm doing it now, in case you're listening to it. I'm going to do the demonic face.
00:21:18.120
You look at his face, and the first thing you think is,
00:21:20.820
what the hell am I looking at? There's something wrong with your face. It looks demonic.
00:21:27.600
It literally looks demonic. But the demonic part is just an interpretation. What it really looks like
00:21:33.820
is mentally ill, and specifically narcissistic. The narcissist, I think their faces actually reveal
00:21:42.920
them sometimes, not all the time. So if you think you're seeing something that looks like demonic faces,
00:21:50.360
the eyes, the crazy eyes, I think it's just the narcissists all on the same team. And the narcissists
00:22:00.280
are telling you that you're such a bad discriminator, you better give your stuff to the people you
00:22:05.520
discriminated against. So that certainly is a big part of the gaslighting. But certainly it's coming
00:22:13.620
from the top on the Democrat side. The things that Republicans believe that are not true
00:22:18.620
usually bubble up from the bottom. They're just some people or persons who has a theory and other
00:22:24.760
people go, oh, I think I'll believe that one. It's not coordinated intelligence experts working
00:22:32.160
with the top of the Democrats to create a hoax over the whole country. You don't really see that on the
00:22:37.960
Republican side. But it's the normal operating system. We've seen it over three elections already
00:22:42.460
of the Democrats. But it's not just them. Defense Secretary Mark Esper has called Trump a threat to
00:22:51.520
democracy. Look for the pattern. What exactly is a threat to democracy? Let me think. Weaponizing
00:23:01.660
these NGOs and fake fact checkers and the FBI to suppress free speech on the other side.
00:23:13.120
That's what I would call the assault on democracy. So while they were actively taking away your free
00:23:20.800
speech by working with the social media platforms and the news, they were complaining that Trump is going
00:23:27.480
to take away your democracy while they were actively really hard working on it. At the same time, if you
00:23:36.140
look at the Georgia case, the Georgia, mostly Republicans, were passing laws to tighten security on their
00:23:43.540
election system. Every Democrat voted against it because why? Why would you vote against tightening security?
00:23:54.120
Well, it's because they don't want a fair election. Because they're trying to protect democracy by making
00:24:05.420
sure that you don't know exactly who voted. That's how they're going to protect democracy.
00:24:10.760
Projection is just projection. All right. Here's another one.
00:24:16.120
Have you seen this too? I turn in the news. There'll be a new poll about Biden versus Trump.
00:24:27.000
And the poll will say Trump is leading in six out of seven, you know, tight races or tight states,
00:24:35.220
you know, the battleground states. And he is, you know, winning overall by whatever number.
00:24:39.240
And then somebody will say it to Biden or Biden's people and they'll say, you're looking at last
00:24:45.580
year's polls or last week's polls. New polls just came out. Biden is ahead in six out of seven polls.
00:24:53.060
To which I say, would that be in the newspaper or something? Like there's not. Are you saying that?
00:25:01.820
Are you saying Fox News wouldn't report that? Are they just skipping some polls? Is that happening?
00:25:07.960
Because, you know, I also watch CNN and MSNBC. I haven't seen him display any polls where Biden
00:25:16.160
is leading. In fact, they only talk about him being behind. Is this pure gaslighting?
00:25:22.960
Where they actually just say, no, Biden is actually ahead in the polls. You're looking at the wrong
00:25:29.180
ones. They look right in your eyes and tell you that there exist polls that are the opposite of
00:25:36.700
everything you've seen. How do they do that? And their press doesn't even call them out about it.
00:25:44.520
They just say, no, the polls are the opposite of everything you've seen. Yeah, Biden's doing fine.
00:25:50.000
Yep. Everything you've seen is opposite of what you think you saw. The level of gaslighting is insane.
00:25:56.920
Now, who lies like that? Narcissists. Narcissists are the only one who can, who could punch you in the stomach
00:26:07.500
and say, stop punching me in the stomach. And you'd be like, you literally just punched me in the stomach
00:26:14.640
and I've literally never even touched you. Stop punching me in the stomach.
00:26:18.520
Like, to lie at that level, look you right in the eye and say, no, the polls are all pro-Biden. I don't know
00:26:27.280
what you're talking about. That's only narcissists. That is not even normal politics. Even politicians
00:26:35.060
don't lie like that. You know, they say something more weaselly, right? They don't lie directly like that
00:26:42.340
on something that's the easiest thing in the world to check. Narcissism. All right. There's some
00:26:51.100
interesting charts going around. Zach Goldberg, I think, pulled them together. He's sort of an
00:26:56.980
anti-wokeness activist. And two charts. One of them founds that liberal white people have the
00:27:06.140
following belief that white people are far more violent in the United States than black people.
00:27:15.020
They're the only group that think that. I don't think black people think that. Only white liberals.
00:27:22.340
So white conservatives don't think that. Only white liberals believe that white people are more
00:27:30.560
violent than black Americans. Now, it could be that they're answering the question differently.
00:27:38.360
It could be that they're including wars and colonization and slavery. If you, if you counted
00:27:45.340
like the whole history of, you know, wars and colonization and slavery, white people are
00:27:50.200
definitely head on the violence. I'm going to give you that. If you just looked at total number of
00:27:57.740
people killed, white people are right up there. We're very competitive in the killing millions of
00:28:04.160
people category. I'll give you that. But if you're talking about normal social violence in the United
00:28:09.340
States, it's not even close, the actual numbers. And I'm not making any kind of genetic or cultural or
00:28:16.820
any kind of a comment. I'm just saying those are the numbers. You know, the why of it, you know, gets to a
00:28:23.500
more interesting question. But we're not talking about the why. Just the numbers. But it's worse
00:28:29.600
than that. It's not just that, but the, according to Zach's charts, that the same group, the white
00:28:39.360
liberals, believe that black Americans, on average, have higher IQs than white people.
00:28:44.880
Now, again, I'm not going to get into any conversation about genetics or culture or
00:28:53.580
systemic racism. I think the question about the cause is an interesting one that I'm not going to
00:29:01.760
talk about. It's just the data itself. How in the world could you live in America and think that the
00:29:08.920
data has shown this stuff? And there's only one group that thinks it. Now, what would be true about
00:29:18.880
this group? They're the crazies. Yeah, they're the craziest group. They actually can't, they're
00:29:26.000
actually seeing the world backwards, like upside down and inside out. They're fairly consistently.
00:29:30.880
Everything they see is the opposite of what is actually true. Well, I'll tell you my own theory on
00:29:41.800
differences in income. Let's say income instead of IQ, because IQ is too divisive. Just say
00:29:49.240
difference in income. To me, the biggest difference is that the school system discriminates against
00:29:56.340
black kids. To me, that's the biggest thing. Now, when I say discriminates against them, I just mean
00:30:02.760
because poor places have bad schools. Teachers unions don't give you much choice, so there's not
00:30:08.660
a free market to give you options. So it's more of a teachers union has destroyed the ability for
00:30:14.860
anybody in a low-income area to get a good education. So if you're starting from a low-income,
00:30:20.900
it's hard to climb out. All right. What else do they believe?
00:30:31.800
So on MSNBC last night, Joy Reid, who is a, as you know, a disgruntled Trump impersonator,
00:30:40.520
if you've seen her haircut, she had a guest called Steve Hassan, who bills himself as a expert on cults.
00:30:50.900
And the expert on cults said that the MAGA people are a cult. Now, I've got a little bit of insight
00:30:58.960
about this situation. So Steve Hassan also interviewed me. I think it was during the 2016 cycle.
00:31:07.600
So I had a long conversation with him, and I think he might have been writing or had finished his book
00:31:14.300
on cults. But he wanted to tie the MAGA movement, you know, make it a cult because he could sell books
00:31:22.720
and, you know, he was a cult expert. And very, very Democrat, it seems. So here's what I learned.
00:31:42.360
So that's one of the things that makes him an expert.
00:31:48.980
Good job. Now that's a sign of credibility, wouldn't you say,
00:31:54.620
and then went immediately to become a Democrat and just joined another cult
00:32:22.860
it's for the benefit of the leader, not the people.
00:32:28.840
and you punish people if they get outside of your cult,
