00:00:06.640 where apparently now you can you can axe him about uh about corn he's the corn king right
00:00:12.460 he bought all this farmland all over the u.s and stuff he's one of the biggest landowners now
00:00:17.100 uh and here's the by the way just show you here here's the the actual youtube uh clip here it has
00:00:24.240 the juice and it's at risk let me just play this first to see what happened and then we'll break
00:00:30.180 down the chronology of this like how did we get here but this is what he uploaded look at this
00:00:34.680 for me i really like corn what do you like about corn
00:00:40.420 it's cold
00:00:41.620 okay all right so what's happening here um well first of all uh there's this youtube channel
00:01:11.620 uh that's called the recess therapy that had a uh an interview with it with the black kid right and
00:01:20.480 they're including him in that video here too let me play just a little bit from i think this is part
00:01:24.900 of the uh it went viral right this is just from like four weeks ago listen let's hear me i really like
00:01:30.760 corn what do you like about corn ever since i and i was told that corn is real it tasted good did you
00:01:39.000 think corn wasn't real but when i tried a bit better everything changed i love corn
00:01:44.660 do you think everyone should be eating corn no not everyone has to like it to be the best
00:01:51.980 yeah just has to try it have a bake what else are your favorite things i play a variety of games
00:01:58.100 hide in sea keg never love a monster yeah mostly cone i mean then look at this then
00:02:05.820 i can't imagine a more beautiful thing it's cone
00:02:09.920 look at this it's corn all right so so all right but let me check out this first here first of all
00:02:18.440 like so so bill gates picked up on this because he's he has something to sell you as usual obviously
00:02:23.480 he's got to use a black kid of course yeah but he's not him doing it that's my point here too 0.98
00:02:28.080 recess therapy is a is a this is the person who's interviewed he he this guy is going around i guess so
00:02:38.180 i mean i don't know but whatever uh that's what i call it it's a guy um going around
00:02:43.400 at schools during recess to interview kids see what's going on here about i'm julian
00:02:52.420 transsexual shapiro barnum i'm an actor comedian and filmmaker by the way i'm gay
00:02:58.620 brooklyn i will i was raised by my five gay parents what three moms and the two dads and due to this
00:03:06.560 unique upbringing i was gifted with a check this out chaotic beautiful and complex if you 0.99
00:03:14.480 there's nothing complex about it you're just another shit lid that's all you are that's all 0.98
00:03:19.400 you are buddy as an artist i strive to create work that pushes its audience to engage question 0.99
00:03:26.040 and think critically i'm sure a lot of critical thinking happening here eat some more gmo corn
00:03:31.680 buddy sandwich so this is like wait a minute what's happening here and so this is that now
00:03:36.120 we're kind of far removed from bill gates but this is just one of these rabbit hole you go down right
00:03:40.940 so he's talking with this kid and it's funny too because it's like this became viral and stuff and
00:03:46.740 it's like you know look the kid is like probably he's obviously he's lost his front teeth here so
00:03:51.400 slow he's probably six seven maybe even eight years old how do i put this there's always like
00:03:59.780 this fascination with as kind of baseline lower look you can it's not that you can't have
00:04:08.620 appreciation for corn but it's not one of the most like incredible you can live without it okay i mean
00:04:14.580 it's not it's really not like for me i can't eat corn it's not good i mean it's it's really sweet
00:04:20.280 and sugary and it's all gmo crap now like you can live without it you should live without it in fact 0.97
00:04:26.620 but then it's like that becomes the vibe not not like the you won't see a video going this viral when 0.89
00:04:32.940 it comes to like a white kid who's like inventing something incredible at age four or something like
00:04:39.380 like you black kid saying how much he loves this sweet gmo corn on the cob it's cone you know
00:04:45.000 oh it's so and then of course then so so so someone took that interview video and created this video
00:04:50.080 right
00:04:50.320 like writing a piece about it
00:04:54.540 a big lump of knobs anyway so this is an incredible incredible viral sensation 11 million views here 0.85
00:05:11.640 not even a month ago right the gay guy just makes it extra special oh yeah extra special right so 0.99
00:05:16.260 anyway so long story short there but that's so then bill gates jump on that right i'm the corn guy 0.95
00:05:22.860 ask me about corn i'll answer all your questions right in fact even if you look at the uh uh the
00:05:29.520 high fructose corn syrup that's one of the issues right saving humanity and saving the planet yeah sure
00:05:35.260 uh if you look at just one of the uh uh the the text lines let's let's play it again here let me show
00:05:41.320 you for me i really like corn and he has pictures of himself here cone i really like corn
00:05:48.480 okay corn is let me pause there aka mace is a really important crop it accounts for 30 percent
00:05:56.540 of the food consumed in africa they love that sweet stuff don't they but it is at risk of course it's
00:06:01.800 always a problem right and here i come in the savior corn is being impacted by climate change
00:06:06.440 but there is hope gmos yep african crop researchers are creating a new africans i don't think africans
00:06:16.640 resilient white people in africa are creating uh gmo corn it's corn a big glump of logs and you put 0.94
00:06:27.380 butter on it so of course so here's the kicker right gates foundation on fighting the food crisis
00:06:33.300 magic seeds and drought resistant chickens we know yeah and that's the corn issue here right
00:06:40.080 corn prices spiked early this year as russian invasion blah blah there's the excuse for you
00:06:44.360 by 2030 according to a new report from the bill and melinda gates foundation one third of
00:06:48.820 southern africans corn will be vulnerable to extreme heat that could slash yields so we're gonna go in
00:06:54.540 and genetically alter the corn in order to offer like a better product right imagine something else
00:07:00.080 happens here where it goes in the opposite direction where like it's actually starts getting
00:07:03.280 cooler as opposed to warmer or wetter as opposed to drier or drier as opposed to wetter whatever they
00:07:07.760 develop it for uh that corn will go out the window because the genetic diversity of this corn will be so
00:07:12.820 limited that he won't have spontaneous uh or adaptive mutations happening well they'll just
00:07:17.320 modify it again oh yeah exactly it's just an endless we'll make things better it's magic we'll do it with
00:07:23.340 magic you know well i'm gonna solve hunger so it's always some trick up his sleeve it's always africa too
00:07:28.600 i know right but that partially why it's africa is of course not because he's generally kind of concerned
00:07:34.260 with it it's because it's so much guilt associated with africa so you can squeeze an endless amount of
00:07:41.140 money out of the west in order to save africa or help africa or all that kind of stuff right
00:07:45.340 but i think it's an interesting flow of things there and it kind of reminds me i remember that
00:07:50.040 movie we watched a while back uh it's called i i mother exactly as i was thinking always reminds me
00:07:56.280 of some dystopian sci-fi movie or something the corn the crops yeah drying up they show this like
00:08:02.060 collapsed environment something has happened it's all robots and ai now controlling things but in the
00:08:07.300 middle of the movie this is the one of the scenes here the the robots are building this like massive
00:08:12.660 corn farms is i guess it's like yes what is it called sightings and what was it called again
00:08:17.280 signs right the signs like robot yeah i don't know if it's aliens or robots i think i guess it's the
00:08:22.300 robots right but look at these farms they're building here massive corn farms and it's like the whole thing
00:08:27.740 is being run on corn they're converting it into some like biofuel and the whole electric uh you know
00:08:33.400 they just inject uh corn syrup right into their veins i guess so right and it's symbolically in
00:08:40.160 there all the oil that's over no one's getting oil anymore okay we get it next scene all the supply
00:08:46.620 chains have shut down here's all the ships no nothing is being shipped anymore it's corn it's corn
00:08:52.880 that's what i'll always be there robots are running the whole the whole new wonderful uh era that we're
00:08:59.060 entering into after the collapse on corn right and robots are raising some kid that they are that
00:09:04.940 that's the story right there it's the totally programming this kid for like uh right think
00:09:10.360 writing their own um their own uh their own humans right isn't that what it is yeah kind of an
00:09:16.580 interesting movie so i'm not gonna say that but yeah they definitely drop those little uh hints and
00:09:20.820 and uh seeds to make it fun um so the other one i want to talk about here too yeah here's another
00:09:27.140 one by the way bill gates here uh pessimistic message from gates we are in a worse place than
00:09:33.180 i expected and he talked he's talking about malnutrition hunger poverty development exports
00:09:38.160 pandemic vaccines and of course again he's been part of creating this world that we now live in right
00:09:42.920 so he's but he's going to come in as the fixer and there was this one piece on his website gates
00:09:47.440 notes this is actually back from 2020 um but let me read a couple of passages from here it's called
00:09:53.180 covet 19 is awful but climate change here is and the headline says could be worse but in
00:09:59.540 even you read the story says it is going to be worse as awful as this pandemic is climate change
00:10:05.320 could be worse and the only way to avoid the worst possible climate outcomes is to accelerate our
00:10:12.360 efforts now give me more money now and i'll save you right even as the world works to stop the novel
00:10:17.800 coronavirus and begin recovering from it we also need to act now to stop uh sorry to avoid a climate
00:10:25.400 disaster by building and deploying innovations that will let us eliminate our greenhouse gas emissions
00:10:32.340 this this obsession with greenhouse gas emissions is insane water vapor is one of the number one
00:10:40.240 greenhouse gases right like you're not going to take that out of the atmosphere they're not doing
00:10:45.900 anything about the volcanoes if you want to understand the kind of damage that climate change
00:10:51.120 will inflict and like these are like high priest predictions you have no idea that this is actually
00:10:56.760 going to happen but they're driving policy and asking for billions and asking us to reshape our
00:11:02.740 entire society up and basically western civilization the progress you know what i mean technologically and
00:11:09.640 so forth that we've made just to just because on on a whim of these uh you know predictors
00:11:15.480 uh look at cover 19 and the spread uh and spread the pain out over a much longer period of time
00:11:22.380 the loss of life and economy misery caused by this pandemic are on par with what will happen how do you
00:11:28.820 know this regularly if we do not eliminate the world's carbon emissions in other words by 2060 climate
00:11:35.480 change could be just as deadly as covid 19 and by 2100 it could be five times as deadly
00:11:42.700 they have no idea where are you getting these numbers it's always like it like this with this
00:11:46.860 guy it's always some new threat some new fear he's predicting it's gonna happen like that's all he does
00:11:51.960 anymore i mean do you remember him talking like this really before covid like when did he really get
00:11:56.960 on the scene pushing this stuff was it around the time of covid i mean when he kind of started uh winding
00:12:03.060 down as the main guy behind microsoft you you saw some of this stuff he started but he's been
00:12:07.880 i mean again it's kind of like a world economic forum they were always there doing their stuff but
00:12:11.620 after and during the pandemic they became like super engaged in the spotlights to drive this
00:12:17.760 narrative right anyway you know he goes through the numbers here but like all this is bull like we know
00:12:22.720 the inflated numbers from covid we've been over and over and over this now now of course they're
00:12:27.280 downplaying the ex's death because of the vaccine but you know we'll get to that continues here
00:12:31.480 but it doesn't okay how do you know that these many people will die oh if there's a race of
00:12:38.580 temperatures in 40 years this many people will die then of it okay how how do you even know that
00:12:44.660 remember we were supposed to be underwater by now right and we were supposed to be died that's you know
00:12:49.720 2008 they said we're going to die in 12 years you know um in the next decade or two the con
00:12:55.300 the economic damage caused by climate change will likely be as bad as having covid sized
00:13:00.140 a covid sized pandemic every 10 years and by the end of that century it'll be much worse if the
00:13:05.640 world remains on its current emissions path if we learn the lesson of covid 19 we can approach
00:13:11.120 climate change more informed about the consequences of inaction and more prepared to save lives and
00:13:17.940 prevent the worst possible outcome the current global crisis can inform our response to the next
00:13:23.520 one and of course it says let science and innovation lead the way because that's totally not what got
00:13:30.320 us into this position to begin with but anyway interesting piece scare tactic always back down
00:13:35.640 saying if you don't if you don't do this you're going to die that's basically what we've reached
00:13:40.440 now when it comes to the propaganda and then it just pulls out some number
