This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Good morning. Everybody and welcome, do what will surely be the highlight of human civilization, yeah use
was twitter or ex us. Not it's. Not it's a shell
you'd like to take up the levels that only the weekend can survive
well. Are you there's a couple? Mugger glass, a tanker challengers style again, teen yoga flask vessel
billy guide schiller with your favorite liquid, like coffee,
enjoy me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dope beat the other day. The thing that makes everything better, it's called the simultaneous sip happens now go is pretty good.
A pretty pretty good. So if you're, not a subscriber locals or ex, where you can see,
dilber reborn comic, but only only there
These areas is now about the boss.
this employees onto the streets to get things for him.
When he lives in a city, those become dangerous, so the employees are complaining.
The danger, comely dork and he just sent.
to go to lunch.
I read it to you, but it's basically tina she's a little unhappy talking to the boss and she says
thanks for sending me through the gauntlet of lawlessness, to pick up your lunch, I got
twenty thousand steps, just where I got twenty thousand steps just fleeing from my life and the boss says you ever submit indeed says
Dead, but now is the property of a guy. They call the midnight scrapper, so
would not have seen that when Dilber was a newspapers, so let me say again that my
my creative revival is really fun.
every everytime. I sat down to make the comic now I'm enjoying it like I'm looking for a time I want to raise some comics.
Every single day for ten years, at least ten years prior to being cancelled, I hated my job.
that is better than a real job, because I could just said their joint pictures and stuff, but I didn't like it
because you know anything you like is great until you have to do too much of it and if you have to do a comic every single day every day you get tired of and after twenty five years, so believe me
Cancelled was like I swear, I was I'd be reborn. I call a dilber reborn.
It was like I was reborn because I actually love my job so by thoughts of desperately wanting to retire, which I did prior to being cancelled. I desperately wanted to retire. I just needed to find a way to do it that wasn't the way I just happened, but mans
it's good stuff. Alright, and I ask you is, can a I do that? Do you think hey? I could have done that joke. Do you think gay? I could have
I had a punchline about the midnight crapper and known that that was funny nope. Not even a chance
I believe. Yesterday I talked about
somebody named elderly oliver, who doesn't exist,
There is somebody named Oliver entity to have that right now. Did I correct that yet so now correct
right first name, Oliver. Lastly, manfully note to future parents,
Your last name already is like a first name. No,
give somebody a first name. That's like a last name. You gotta make a choice. If it had been Eric Anthony would I have been confused? No Eric. No, nobody has the last name of Eric. That must be
but no oliver anthony, I believe, has
Parents have a sense of humor.
We say round? Why should we name and they said to himself well, I've got an idea how bout a practical joke instead of
regular name, we're getting ever my name, those industry
It was removed from the first or last name to match, with his existing last name, that's indistinguishable from a first name. Do you think he's going to have a lot of explaining to do? Well? Yes, he will.
Apparently is not his real name will thus somebody
as that is real name.
Christopher anthony lungs work. Are you kidding me that that's desert? That's, not a real. That's a performance oliver's, his grandfather, the well ok,
DR weir makes more sense, may I say that his parents are now off the hook. Parents are written the clear you ve cleared up. You ve cleared
here I was euro- was maligning the parents as pranksters, but now the problem was mine, entirely fake news, fake news gabby again
see now. I think this is why live stream is better than recorded anything because you, you use abject, be in real time. Wasn't that use
I don't think, there's anything better technology, wise than getting fact checked, while you're doing it that that's sort of the ultimate model. That's why I like the computers, you notes. Alright,
More about that. So easy was number one. I guess I tunes for the world, not just the country,
and the story is a turned down. A billion dollars when you think of that turned
with a billion dollars to I dunno commercialize, his music, with some publisher or other now. Do you think that's awesome because he was not interested in money. You know it was more about the message.
Or orderly of good advisers, maybe if
areas, business adviser. Do you think I would let him take an eight million dollar first offer? No,
If your ears adviser, will you let him take an eight million dollar offer. I would have changed him to his bed.
Or I will let him take that offer I would have physically restrain them
look. I know this isn't cool I'm going to physically restrain you, but don't sign an eight million dollar offer first of all started. It should start at twenty
right if it is even give it consider and offer its twenty was just.
honest? Eight million was low. The first offer you.
Before somebody is fully emerged, is gonna be the low one
you- are trying to get an early to try to get a discount
get him before. He knows what he's got here. Of course you let that would go.
at least you let it age right. At the very least, you don't take it the day. It's offered. You know you love to see if they can enhance it, maybe see the competition. If you get into your ears the best you want, you also have the best business advice. You'll ever hear.
Caricom's, if somebody makes you- and I
dollar offer an ear
in the news: everybody knows you exist, but you ve got one offer
A million dollars tell me the odds that you would get a second offers
What percentage odds do you think you could get a second offer as are preserved.
As a result there is that these years you are going to second third fourth offer. So if you
If you consider the first offer this is bad business as bad business. So here's what I'd like to think about him. Don't know that is true.
But if you saw the quality of the writing in the song, and then you add that the
quality of the performance, and then you add,
to the equality of his commentary, cosy he drove into
parties he was talking about the situation,
You can really say he's smart. Can you not.
it is not a normal just average joe is actually smart,
I'm going say smarter than the average person it's kind of obvious and
if somebody who's smarter than the obvious, the average person turns down an offer. Just just just put that in the context that was the offer I would have turned down as well doesn't mean he'll ever taken offer. He might just stay independent, I mean. Does he really need anybody? What what would
They do for him that he can't do for himself. Usually usually it's somebody tried to make you famous, but if you start
most famous artists in the world number one on itunes and the entire world. If you start there,
than the value of helpers goes way down, but they probably wanna. Take fifty to seventy five percent of his and of his earnings would be my guess,
All right, so you tweet, bio and musk, which just said acts meaning.
Twitter, as humanity's collective consciousness. Do you see it? Do you see?
acts as societies meeting you its existence is as societies collective consciousness. I totally do
have you ever very books they would have,
a similar concept
If you have read my book gods debris, this would be the time to connect all the dots.
The people on my locals platform have more of a backstory there, but let me just actually could even buy that. I think god's debris is cancelled. If you are on the locals platform, you could read it for free cause. It's available there for free, the ebook part yeah. I think I think,
various cancelled at the moment. You can get a used one, but just remember
eureka remember, you must wait about, explained the common consciousness and then it will blow your mind when you read the gods. Debris be here books, my book ray,
frame. Your brain is still not available, was not approved yet by amazon for the physical book. Now the full physical work is done and submitted. They just have to see us for some reason. It takes a few days. I don't know if there's a problem yet, but by the end of today, if it's not there, I'm going to assume there is a problem. However, here's the good news, the the review
I use the amazon reviews are just off the chart, so the the people who are raining at are are just having their minds blown, which is what I imagined would happen
by mines blown I mean that people are seeing their life changing and fundamental ways. Even while reading the book the they can actually feel the change.
Some people are wearing out there I later so at eight
it's not like a regular book. It's it's a book you're going to want to highlight keep around show to people refer back to so that the physical book, I actually recommend.
it normally normally I'd say, get the kindle workers who do a book on the shelf. But yes, sir, if you want this book away from the soft cover, I wouldn't way from the word go soft cover will come before the outcome.
Mike is so that's going you I gotta, say there's little inside baseball author thing,
when you spent two years working on a book which I did.
it ruins kind of ruins two years, your life, normally it's a year, but it was a busier. So took me a little
but if you put a year of your life into basically removing all of your entertainment time so that you basically are just working for a year, you want that book to do well, so you wanted to, you know, do well in the
likings and make money and all that stuff. But I gotta tell you that there's a a thing, that's even better than that as good as money is, is when the reviews come in and their stellar like
Well, I feel like I'm done everything else avons after that is like the scrape, I'm glad that happened.
But when the reviews come in and they're just through the roof, that's that's the payoff. That's because I wrote it to be useful. I didn't write it to be entertaining. I dunno, if you thought, if you thought I did is not, is that meant to be entertaining per se yeah? It was should it should be entertaining to, but it should change lives and people are saying
this so there you go very ago more about that later
a funny tweet, buyer, morgan, m J,
and she's woman, and she says my favorite thing about men, how there completely incapable of risk
Funding to multiple questions over text.
Whatever you asked last is the only thing that will acknowledge today by experience. Ladies
Do you have an experience that men will only answer? One of the questions you ask, I I had to go public and I know men don't be mad at me: men,
be mad? I know I violated the secret of men by telling women one of our secrets, but I thought I had to make an exception.
This time say retweeted. I commented we're trying to train you to ask one question:.
How many men said, my god, that's exactly what I'm doing
Many of you admit it.
With the man say. Okay, you got me, that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm trying to train her to ask one question: yeah I've done that oh yeah, I've intentionally ignored questions, try to train them,
Alright, the exception will be business. If I get a text for a business, I don't mind multiple questions cause. You know why not and then
and then somebody in the in there was a woman in the comments this just made me laugh until I cried. She said that she had tried to. You know: she'd heard the same thing: the men like one one,
protect social, send, multiple questions and multiple tax at the same time, so that each question is in his own text.
Was out exactly getting to the heart of the problem and I loved
I love that your men and women are so different.
Even when I say directly, I've tried to train you to ask one question:.
that's the way it was heard. Was our soldiers ass ten,
actions of individual taxed at the same time and were good right now.
No, that wasn't exactly the spirit of that.
Here we go now. My ever told you that all news about public figures is fake news. Yes, I am
and the reason I told you that goes all news about public figures as fake now
always starts with something true. You know
somebody is sick. Probably true, dont want somebody dies,
Somebody get married. Those are usually true, but
of the wise. Somebody did at the background, the interpretation, the context, all fake, all fake all the time,
Not always intentionally will save you can pick. This went out on your own
So there's historian the insider which used to be called the business insider about
or of gay juniors voice issues is a disorder calls
not like this volume,
the insider reports that it is an incurable disorder.
Why did they report that its incurable disorder do
you think I sound like our escape junior right now does Ebay things. I talk just the way. Those right now.
Nope. Do you know that I had that same disorder, sculled spasmodic disclosure, and that I had surgery- and it was cured
that's? Why, when you listening to me right now, the sounds like Bernie normal voice and the reason I got two surgery is because
I was referred to other people who had the surgery, so I talked to them in person I mean by phone, but personally I talked to them and they could all speak fine. They could.
all speak fine, so there was in fact and rest
for now many years. Ten years, fifteen years a sir,
that is a complete cure. Support.
you're too. Look it up. I'd like you to do,
This right now, if anybody as a second browser, open, look for treatment or cure of spaz monica disown, you tell me what comes up treatment or cure a spanish monarchy desponding to do right now. Do it right now remember the cure has been available for about ten or fifteen
and I've been public about how I did it the invasions of it. What do you find
what is recommended as sometimes is called the gold standard. Well, I think if you look it up you're going to find that there's no cure, but that botox injections through the front of the neck into the back of the neck, in other words they're reaching to the back of the neck, but they have to go
the front into your vocal courts can give you some relief
The these says, there's no cure. Webley says: there's no cure on literally talking to you cured, so once you get to find
That most most standards will say, there's no cure, but people often use botox to get a better result better than what that now. What,
it's happening. You know for sure one hundred
sure- is curable casual
let me live
a very long history of your talking about it?
where I was cured not talking but writing about, and and now you find that if
check the link, the news, not just the news, but if you search on Google
was going. Gotta say that there's a farm, a product, a big I dunno, big, but a big pharma product. That's the only thing you can do about it, as he put it together yet as ebay connected the dots
There was a organization this, like the umbrella organisation for this situation, spasmodic this value so,
a bunch of people were that condition and some people are treated it got together?
graves of like if an organization, if you search for it.
it probably be one of the first things that comes up. Who do you think gives them funding to support their organization o utter now? Can you take a fuckin guess: yeah,
is exactly what you think it is put your conspiratorial out of. There is a cure, but
news won't tell you and if you search for it, you can find it. What does
remind you of that
This happened before the pandemic, so this is the same thing for years. It's always been like us.
I respect him, but that is exactly what you think you. This is exactly what you think is. The news is not even close to real
can you believe this? This is about a major. Can it now
The back story on or of gauging he did get a medical procedure, but is not the one I got. He did research really learned. He learned about mine because I,
I told him about a long time ago and he decided to get something rather easier recovery, which is a reasonable decision. So
decision actually made sense because he did gives some improvement? That's quite substantial.
Enough to get him through, maybe the political season. If he had done my
surgery he'd have a year or two of weak voice. Wouldn't it went to work for politics and all.
So does take long, there's long recovery period, but can you imagine that the news does you mention
when you read anything about a political figure, even
like as basic as a medical situation, not real. It's just not real.
Once you realize how not real the news is, you can never. You can never unsee it hello. This is Scott Adams and now's your chance to reply to questions hot takes and calls for feedback from myself and all of your favorite podcasters on spotify.

Personally, I plan to use these tools to get you to enjoy the content even more so head over to spotify, search for coffee with Scott Adams or your favorite podcast, and view the latest.
results and respond, acuity and balls on spotify only I'd China's population other news that the fertility is dropped.
Below Japan's level, which was yo Japan had the same problem are having the same problem is even worse
Now that's from the official numbers from china, so the official
numbers from China say that their birth rate is basically a severe emergency.
Do you think they gave you the right number? Do you think
And they tell you the real number. Probably the fake number shows an emergency. Imagine how bad the real number is. If there is one imagine so, jason
bad bad trouble, and the other thing is there that I don't hear enough about. Is that there are way too many men are there like? How would they fix that? If there are way too many
then for women, because all that matters is the number of women does matter. The number of men will talk about maui.
so further in big trouble? You can you
mind me did I say on live stream, or did I only said to my private
private group on the man gave. Did I tell you there
evac vivek ended? The risk of war with china over taiwan.
Yeah I'll just say it again, presented by mrs with vague said that
Taiwan is critical to the united states because the chilly place we can get these events chips,
this news, there's there's nothing you can do to take. Taiwan is that's that's a red line, bob lot, but why
we could make those chips ourselves that the united states than here
we see it as more of a civil war which would suggest that china and taiwan, or go to work it out on the road.
Why would showing that ever attack was a vegas
the race and other people are nodding their heads to that.
I doubt anybody said well, that's a bad idea. Do don't you think everybody heard that said yeah that makes sense. Yeah yeah right now is critical, you'd, better, not touch it
you just waited, and then you add, on top of that, the child is the most patient country in the history of all countries. They have like a hundred or so
near idea for china
so seventy years eight years it would just make sense to wait
even if you are sure you wanted to make a move on Taiwan
unless you're going to do it right away like before or during the presidential races, which would be a scam,
possibility. I dont see them get ready to do it, though
all hell would break loose and I don't think that they can handle all hell of breaking loose given.
There are other problems, I think John is too weak. Honestly, I think you're too weak and I.
You're through stronger years? Maybe that would be a way for if they were them.
If I were them, that's what I do so. I guess.
trump is going to be interviewing with Tucker carlson at the same time as the fox debates to have that right. Give me a fact check on that. There will be televised, both live, so would Tucker be live or recorded. That part, I don't know, can somebody get the design right now if Tucker will be live or recorded cause I feel like it would be recorded and edited because I don't know that
because it would be streamed on twitter live. Let me give you just a feel for the audience. If you had a choice of which one to watch live, let's say maybe record the other one
Which one will you watch live? Go which one would you watch live almost all trump
Now. Is that because you're mad at fox news, because I will go the other way,
so I would watch here's my take on it. This is just personal, so there's this is not a recommendation or anything it's just the way I'll do it. I feel like trump talking to Tucker I've already seen you know what I mean. I wouldn't really expect that a surprise now trump might come up with a surprise, because he's smart enough to know that. Would that
be the thing they would serve all the energy away from fox news, but I dont know they ass one.
What can we say that we have already heard so
I am really curious about watching vague, dismantle the other republicans.
So to me that the real showers vague because he's the wild card in all this?
Everybody else is some version of MIKE pence. Am I right? It's like vache vs MIKE pence, MIKE pence, the other mike pence, the woman mike pence. You know the black mike pence, but basically it's just a bunch of mike pence's and then vague. Now, that's
well now, given that it will be lots of people there, how many people are going to be in the debate too many right too many to be a proper debate. It's just everybody gets their little thing to say. Well, I think I'm going to watch the debate.
And record tucker, but most of you are going to do the opposite right or not even watch the debate as a sun foxes Madame or something I let me ask you this
Do you think you're helping yourself by not watching fox news.
I shall be yours. People say yes, it helps you not to watch them because what because you are punishing them
they you or what am I doing wrong ideas and elsewhere
what I'm doing wrong. I turn on fox news. I watched the five my favorite,
now and then I'm all happy. What did I do wrong
Why? What does not work for you? Because you don't like the network, I'm not even sure what the problems?
Because I live in the past, you say.
But how does that, make the five less entertain if I'm watching gov filled in the evening.
what does anything the fox news did in the past have to do with that? I don't. I don't feel like. I feel, like you're kind of boycotting members of your own team
I get that you're mad at them, for whatever they did or didn't do, but that was that good for you, thinking of your own.
I would say this think of your own self interest. That's probably more important than any statement. You're gonna make
Well, they're, really fun elon, musk tweeted. There s going to get rid of the block feature and eggs.
what is it happened when he said he's gonna get rid of the block creature. Well, let's talk about that. I dont know
it's gonna happen, pursues a pretty big response about it, but probably will probably well.
who his argument- I'm guessing his
mean I'm guessing would be. That free speech is free speech and it's a free speech platform. But I'm not sure the trolls are a free speech question: are they trolls? It's more like you have freedom to walk down the street, but if somebody bangs you in the head, what you walking down the street,
it is free, as you thought now. I will, and I'm going to echo something the zoo be said about this, which is, if you have a smallish normal twitter account. This is a good idea for you. If you have a big account lots of followers like Zippy, it's a problem, because you just you you end up attracting accidentally, just the ugliest messaging the world. Now, it's so ugly that it would prevent me.
Look in your comments on my own my own time one. So one of the things that I like about my my experts and acts is that I can t something.
and then I look at all the different comments and people agree and disagree and because I blocked so heavily up to this point,
I almost always get really
really good our debates in my comments, zambia notice, maybe
Maybe you don't blocked the people I do so. It doesn't work that way, but my own
sperience of it is that I dont get
many other just evil trawls
more people just disagree and they ve got two different data sources that stops great so
I would say that my experience would be degraded if you took blocking away from me and by the way blocking gives me a doleful mean it
So when the trolls take my dopamine mean away like I I feel key, then I had to block my dopamine returns
So I use the block literally as a mental health tool
that's not an analogy? That's actually the literal thing, I'm doing my mind is not feeling good. I just read a troll block, it my mind is cleared.
And then I go on with my day is actually literally no joke an important part of my mental health. That's not does not. Any hyperbole is an important part of my mental health.
now, but the counter argument is this: who cares about you, which is a very good argument
The best counter argument is: who cares value.
because you're one of the rich big accounts, almost anybody with a small account wanted more exposure, would train places. Would
people with a thousand followers if they could trade places that with me to half a million and have more trolls
Well, not everybody, but a lot of people would so.
On one hand, I hate this change and would make me feel way less happy about my experience. On the other hand, mosques argument is a part
worst argument: most people on twitter are smaller accounts and they would like to have their say. Free speech is a bitch. Isn't it free speech? Is a
And I'm gonna come down on this
where I haven't seen anybody else come down.
Removing blocking would be absolutely bad for my experience in my mental health I dont know there would be bad for people with small accounts and there, the vast majority. Why would my preference be more important than a vast majority of people.
it's not it's just not desire freedom to use it or not. Use it read the governments are not read the comments. I have lots of freedom, so it's real
it really comes down to my problem, doesn't it do it? Do I think that the vast number of twitter users should be degraded in their experience? In other words, everyone's getting blocked should. Should I degrade all of their experience, so I can get my little. You know.
Out of it, I think the first thing I can do is say what my feeling is that in my opinion, is and then
let the elon run his company, because I don't feel I'm smart enough to judge this one. I feel this is just the way the public needs to win, so here
oh. I would come down this if most of the people on twitter like this idea because of the ones getting blocked as opposed to what else
when reluctantly agree, that mosque is not making a bad decision at least to test it.
You know what do I always say you don't have to decide if it's a good or a bad idea. If you can test it, you don't have to do
and a twitter is sort of the ultimate example that they they could.
You just set aside the code that allows you to block, but you don't delete it. Obviously unjust,
he's already run?
experience where everybody's unblock for awhile see weapons, people like people, don't like it and then and then make a decision for their. So, if you're thinking that, if you believe the mosque as me,
The decision that is on reversible, I don't think you understand. Software is very reversible. You ve seen an experiment quite a bit.
The universe so shows very reversible, but when
it's a statement that he's going to get rid of it. That gets him all the feedback and attention he needs to make a better decision, but I think you'll probably test it. If I were him I'd test it, even if there was a big you're yelling at first I tested, I think you will alright,
see it's all yours good test of your conspiracy, mind so laura lunar who
is probably one of the most cancelled people on the planet. Who is not me? She is. She has all kinds she's our problems from banking, too.
Networks, and but she is allowed on twitter and she has a account and she is two hundred to four million impressions. But
I Gallagher some tiny little amount of pay off from being a year,
a twitter earn an ex user who had signed up for modification
so she thought tat. She was being maybe suppressed in some way, because our first pay off a small. What is it
so the only thing we know is that
her. Size would normally have I'll give you
precious for decision making? These are not the real numbers, but their approximate.
The count her size might be expected to make five to seven thousand dollars a month from twitter at payments. Her actual payment instead of five seven thousand, was clear.
sir, to under two hundred dollars and she seemed other people advertise what they got from from acts.
Also she's like what was going on. I have this much engagement, but I got like five percent of that. What's going on,
Tell me this is the only thing we know so far. You tell me
Is there something going on or achieving traded exactly like everybody else? What do you think? What what's your best speculation with limited information speculate with limited information? Thank you erika the correct answer.
no clue they. The amount that you as an observer can tell about this situation is nothing just nothing,
I will add one thing to it, which, when I got my first check for having advertisements in x
looked to me like way smaller than other accounts, my size, because they have been publishing their numbers and I think in miles Chung or somebody
abolished and I looked at the size of his account and engagement?
with their that I thought they should become a similar, but I got
This little peanut and he got pretty sizeable check as
first month, I said to myself the same: laura labour. I said something going on here:
I wasn't even I wasn't sure that I was registered in the system. I thought maybe I was confusing with some other payment or something it was so small, so this
Can payment was totally in the range of what I would have expected right, so the second one was fine.
Now? My guess is that laura lower will have the same experience that the second jacqueline.
Is somewhere in the range of what you'd expect the first one might have been a partial partial month right might have been in parsons or there could be a bug about the first month or something like that, but I do
I think that you'll unmask suppressing her now here's the argument for yes, don't you think that twitter deal works with ever
as and do you think the advertisers do not ever say, don't paris with some kinds of content? Do you think that's ever happened, because that's what the the youtube model
The, u two bottle is is not really youtube is barely people, it's mostly
the advertiser say we don't want to be associated with that kind of content. So what is what
Laura loma is right, but by the way I'm not debunking reply. If it sounded like that, then I went too far. I'm not debar
your claim. I'm saying we literally have no idea just industry and the first one.
mystery will go away if the second month as normal. It would just me there's something about the first month, but.
Would you if you are an advertiser, would you say why don't you pair me with laura loomer type material
so she might actually be on some kind of a blacklist and we wouldn't know about it, but I think this affair question for isla must isn't it. I haven't seen any by asking the question, but the question will be
Are you? Are you satisfying advertisers in any way?
whither with a blacklist. I would think they would have to seems like yours almost required. I don't know you could not do it
if they can convince. If there is a way to
convince the advertisers that it doesn't matter. They'll, be awesome,
here's, how I would do it if I were if I were musk, I would say this now: we're we're a free speech platform
and that means you would be on your own in the shades of people you loved and people you hated, but people on twitter understand that. So that will be the best argument.
the people on twitter understand that work.
They say it is not an indication of being paired now if they parity with the tweet. That would be a problem pairing it with the comments to the tweet.
we'll just as often parent with somebody saying laura lobe area, the worst person in the world which may be they agree with, so I think
I think, twitter good good argument better than youtube and argument that
does the ads are randomized, that's much different view to now. Imagine youtube. There's an hour long, video and you're associated with that
If you are an advertiser, you don't want to be associated with like an hour. Long like bad content, but a tweet is fleeting. Right is one of one hundred things that person did that day. So you can.
The argued on twitter that adds are randomized sufficiently. The people don't even
don't even really associate them within the twitter, which I think it's true.
Have you ever associated and have you saw acts with the person who tweeted.
I don't think it's every referred to me now is never never crossed my mind, but I definitely have had those feelings about youtube
Where I go I'll ass, a weird add to be associated with this content. Never had that thought with workers is a sufficiently randomized, there will say,
Well, the foreshadowing has begun both CNN jake dapper and the washington post, who,
story say that tromp was right about Biden taking money from china.
So they actually showed the club of translating the thing that Biden said is not
and then they said, no Biden was wrong now Jacob.
actually gave the out there? Maybe you didn't know
His son was doing so. Their colleagues quote a blind spot. The maybe by the Joe Biden, might have had a blind spot
what his son was doing and then they add on india live in whose Democrat and he said, keep in mind. This was yes yesterday
you said, there's no way of Joe Biden being involved in hunters. Business is no with really really
You picked up with not a with nothing. Now imagine how much of a bubble a noose bubble you'd have to
to hear this guy say: there's not a whiff of Joe Biden be involved. Now, obviously you talk about the paper trail, but is it that's a pretty big astray
given, although we know that is well confirmed to say that there is not a with.
it would be fair to say it would be fair to say. There's no paper trail. I haven't seen one not not ass his name
It would be fair to say I don't know of a specific crime, that's dooms suggested or losers.
But to say, there's not a with come on by here
bigger story was not that does, of course the bondage save abundance do, but a man.
They're, both the washington post and cnn, which
no we're not real news, and this right, if I say why
the post and say, and then your brains.
automatic. They say. Oh, the fake news, people there there, the chief fake news people and in politics right now.
both of them were saved by the light the bull say, bye.
About something that kind of matters. Doesn't it
then also we saw on what was it to face. The nation was now meet the press, which was it to be a fact jackal.
Who was a din representative dean, philips went on and he was encouraging people to get into the democratic primary it was NBC. Wasn't.
Can you effect check on that? There is always a reason. The reason I say that is NBC would be another signal for a good news. Watchers.
What what what did tell you if, if, if well, actually, is one person, but they probably knew what he was going to say. It was meat and depressed
Why they carry out. I got so if it was NBC, there are, people
Glenn greenwell, for example, who say that there are in an intelligence, cia news outlets. So if that's true, that would suggest that the intelligence people might be ok.
getting rid of button and if cnn and washington, post coverage of it of Biden being liar
is suggesting that there are very done with them, but they don't know what to do with the cobbler problem,
So I think all all indications are basically
One hundred percent of the evidence suggests Democrats are trying to get rid of Biden. Would you agree? One hundred percent of available evidence suggests they want to get rid of and it's obvious they come Lehrer says the problem. Would you agree.
I I feel like this is opinion, but his opinion, this so close to obvious there's like just one degree away from fact. You know anything could be wrong. I suppose I can be wrong, but I mean this looks as clear as a
it was as ever looked if were wrong about this I'd, be means.
Have you noticed the rubber Wendy
Santos was just being a governor before it is running for president and
I kept being amazed at how he would find one thing after another to make news, though,
like a useful thing for his base, the other side was screen but like
That's a little useful news.
He little things- and he was just always in the news doing one
Smart thing after another, smart defined as doing things is based ones.
Have you noticed that those same pattern exists in another floridians mac gates,
Have you noticed how many times Matt gates finds a topic,
the issue that you didn't even know was one.
But as soon as he says, it's an issue, you say all others got of an issue
and then he says what he was knew about it not always successful.
but he'll say I'm using this tool of government to try to kill this thing.
Every time I heard. I think that is a thing than easily get killed.
what has happened again?
calling on congress to investigate the judge, who's gonna, be judging trumpet. I guess the in one of the.
is judge, tanya, shotgun.
And apparently she is somewhat infamous forgiving
extra hoard extra hard sentences to the january six people. Now my head just exploded. I just told you that,
europe will have the same judge. Who is well known for a new?
really hard sentences for the january six people is that who you want and goes further
Maggie is also accused, sir of supporting the twenty twenty black lives matter, protests, some of which were violent.
While at the same time openly criticising the capital riot,
he thinks it rises. The level where the judge should be called before congress- and I agree- and I agree that absolute
what what you should do and by the way, who even thought of this, who else thought of it.
Now, you might say to yourself, but Scott. This would be a bad precedent would be a terrible precedent of the congress yo interfering in this, but not in this case,
in this case this is a purely political situation and that's congresses, job the political stuff. If I thought this was only about the law
I am then I say all baggage stay well away from the judges right, you're, good or bad.
You don't want your congress messing with judges right. This is about the law or about crime you're about to make the laws you you say,
there, but this is not anything like a criminal case. This is only a political thing. In the opinion of at least fifty to sixty percent of the public is purely political. In that case, this is
exactly the right move, and he just keeps knew. Why is it that maggie's keeps doing productive for his base? Productive, interesting news, making
Things when was the last time dissenters did that one was,
it's time to census did one of those signature like good governor things. It's been a while hasn't it it's been awhile. You know what it feels like.
Feels like there for a while they are the same adviser, but now dissenters doesn't fails to me like it fails to me like the census lost. A key adviser who is maybe friends with maggie's or or mac gates was the key advisor for decent
is and that maybe they were a little closer when it was about florida. But now that it's about the presidency maggots, you know peels off pro trump and just keeps doing his thing. So so at the moment that Matt gates, peels off from you, know florida business to national business. That's the same moment that the scientist stops his string of great political acts that are good for the base, but Matt gay keeps doing them.
There's something there. I'm gonna give you the optimism, which is unwarranted, but you like in any way, can I have your permission
To give you unwarranted optimism. Worthy
you're standing that you're gonna say: that's not scott you're! Now now I'm not say so.
I want you to enjoy this as recreational optimism. The
Optimism would be like based on facts and stuff, like that. This is recreational optimism.
Our long national
brainwashing nightmare looks like a stir. In the end,
and what I mean by that, though the national brainwashing nightmare, is that the country was heavy
vied, that was primarily based on race, gender, stuff, that the real problem with the country is that the races
you're hurting each other and competing, and then oliver entity or whatever
real name is: does this on and you see and effects
people in an economic you know, group exactly
same no matter who they are. Do you think that that song had less impact on a? I know, anybody on the left probably not assumed to be impactful for it.
for people there now as chapelle and other smart people, comedians events,
in forever. It has never been a race question. The race thing is brainwashing in the past. It was the real estate and there can be you know during slavery. The the race issue was
It realist thinking it could be during all of the years after that, including up until today, still lots of real stuff, real systemic racism, real racism of every kind, less and less last, but still you know a serious issue. However,
we should be smart enough now to know that if we switch from a race for
his race, which we ve been talked into by obviously people who don't want us to do, that is about money, because we would take their money. I feel like people have figured out, that is the age of the internet.
We are starting to enjoy.
what I would call if I could give it a label. The big rephrase, the bigger
frame is one? We realise that if we treat
each other as individuals. Everything works. If we,
treat each other as part of the average of some conceptual group.
Somebody in charge wants us to begin all worked up about. Then we fight each other, and that was never the point.
were all on the same side except the people have the most power and money
Now I'm and I'm sort of in a weird hybrid situation. You know where I came from not much money to know big well off, but I'm definitely not in the the black rock
military industrial, complex lay. I don't have any connection to the intelligentsia, whoever it is running over there
I don't: have any w e f sorrows connections lay out of that right?
so I'm just an observer. Just like everybody else who is not an elite. I guess
an observer from this from
observer perspective.
Not only is the word refrain having a renaissance,
but once the word and the idea of re framing things becomes more popularize, which is what my book is doing at the moment. Refrain.
Frame your brain once you see that reframing is sort of a a go to thing that everybody has access to. Oh, I can look at that differently and, if I did, would that give me more tools just looking at it differently? Does that
I have some opportunities, and this is the ultimate. This is the big reframe. Everything that's wrong with the country is because we were, we were hypnotized and brainwashed into a frame that black people and white people are fighting each other, and you know lgbtq against the world.
Stuff like that, and the moment we get out of their frame and say what about
Everybody is infinitely uniquely different from everybody else, because that's the truth, you think there is such a thing as a black guy. When we act like there is, of course, there's not theirs infinite.
Maybe in black americans, as there is infinite variety and asian americans, aesthetic nurse now white americans, we all do eat cheese and where khakis that I mean there's nothing
I can do about that. So I feel we are all exactly the same and when we dance is a little like this now
that's not true, either isn't, but did you notice that I can just laugh about it? I can laugh it. Just money
yeah I do evil allergies,
and I m not a good dancer true now, if we can get to the boy
Where everybody can laugh about their thing.
and I'm not even gonna, say what anybody else's thing is, but if you're hispanic american- and you can-
lie about. Whatever you're thing is, can we all just understand that never applies to everybody? Nothing about a group applies to all the people no period.
They re afraid hears it, so my recreational optimism is, is the oliver anthony was not just the cause of something meaning
was a sleigh thinking differently. He was a sign that were already there.
He was the sign that that door, cracked, open he he kicked the falkland or do but
It was cracked, like people were already started, say hey this pandemic.
Think that was totally legitimate right that
pandemic. Also re oriented us toward. Is it possible that everything we ve been told is alive
and the answer is everything important. You ve been told this alai. Absolutely everything important was lie still is, but if we can find their way to the big refrain which, by the way you'd have to get past the big lie, the big lie is: what's one of the things we are.
so called big life is, was keeping you from the big. Referring is keeping you from airline mosques view that twitter could be the common consciousness,
In other words, twitter is one place that I can go and see that
Black americans and white americans watch Oliver anthony and had the same reaction.
Did you see it on? The innovation is dead
see it abc lose. Did you see it on CNN nope? You did see it on fox news. They did governed by
anything discovered in one in war,
news silo, isn't really the things move in the country, but I think we're there. So the ultimate refrain
scum and are of gay junior is part of this as well, because
is pushing the middle class revival and his messaging is on fire right, I'm an hour if gay juniors just great at message:
And so now you ve got or of k. Saying hey! This is the left remember. This is important but dont. Mrs is a Democrat. There's a Democrat tell you that you been brainwashed by the powers and, if he's getting through, but keep in mind, both the right and the left are now saying that the
ray frame is necessary. I let's talk about hawaii it sped now many days.
Ten days or awake or something there. Still they say over a thousand missing.
the official numbers and one eleven nobody thinks us close nobody,
that I'm going to tell you something that what I was holding onto before, but I've seen it on twitter. So now I guess I'll tell you. I think the big reason that we don't have a better estimate of death is because they would have to break it out by children and adults and we're not ready to hear it. That's what I think I think the percentage of the thousand ish that are missing the the percent that our children will cause a national depression. I I think the mental health of the country can't handle this news, and I think that this is a case where the cats are the roof is perfectly acceptable. We need to get used to this. You will you gotta, get prepared for what's coming you're going to get some news that
might be the worst news you've ever heard in the country it might be. You know I mean there are a lot of competitors for that, but it might be more so you've ever heard so just get ready mentally prepare for that.
ran Paul tweeting that rutgers college is requiring freshmen to get fully vaccinated in twenty. Twenty three
imagine being accepted to college
and you're you're all set to go yeah I'm going to rutgers but school and they tell you you have to get vaccinated in two thousand twenty three.
Why would you want to go to their school? I would
go to a school, they understood something.
Like this is the school, that years must learn things under the requiring required
explanation for young healthy males, especially
everybody they want, but the males are more at risk. I guess abasing like issues
jawdropping lee amazing that rockers can still stay in business
I don't think so. The anything better for the country than all of our college is going out of business because we
reform education, I mean we wouldn't stop educating people, but but there would be start ups and would be online and would be self organized. Educate,
Groups, there was something would happen, but I swear to god. I wish to convey college illegal because all of this is making our students stupid.
You know some people, the college and work up to half a million dollar debt. To make your kid a fuckin idiot, but this was happening.
All right. Let me I just have
Do this because I know my audience, asia foot
that of things at Joe Biden administration, my
getting really right.
stewart too early, but just cut it?
all these and you're out at the same time. So I mention that
it might be something happening within IRAN, deal that finally
could be so young will say, rationally put together.
That even now benjamin
and the aarhus is a at least in the broad brushes
even then the yahoo is saying they could properly live with it.
you could do. It ran deal that Israel could live with and it looks like that's actually a possibility right now.
huge. Now I would say if you, if you want to be political about it, you can say that the binding administration is benefiting from what the trumpet administer.
Started which was pressure on IRAN to the point where they had to negotiate. It just happens to be now because of that seems to me why they're getting flexible their literally running on a cash
but the way the rules work, I don't make the rules,
Ro the rule say that if a good thing happens during your administration,
People say at and break it. You get some credit for that, but
We also say that the china sanctions from the bided administration are pretty serious
actually more than I might have expected
and I don't have a real problem with Biden's treatment of china, I actually thought that trump should have done more. If I would compare Biden's treatment of china to trump's, I would say trump probably got the ball rolling and I think trump reframed china. Would you agree with that trump
ray framed what china was where they are trade,
partner that is a requirement for our future? That's what used to me
Now there are adversary. Who is stealing our stuff trumpeted that I would like to think. I helped there were a lot of people and their page, but I like it
I did my my part, but I would say that, in my opinion, Biden is getting tough on sentinel. You know they're moving against the sentinel dealers, they're cutting them off, and so I don't have a big complaint about Biden in China right now it does
it looks like they're getting serious about this and that the russia thing you you're, going to see it entirely through a political filter. But if I can be objective about it and we're spending too much money running up debts risking nuclear war, everybody knows the bad side. So I I don't need to reiterate all the bad things about being involved, but it did look to me and I think they've said it directly- that the real play here is not ukraine. The real players degrading russia as a competitor
both militarily and economically, and especially as a competitor in the energy segment, and it looks like that's gonna happen. My guess is that there will be
some negotiated, and eventually,
so the war will stop
but one is over. Russia won't be russia anymore, the
those days will still largely be the united states, but russia wall
Russia and if
if you're, a real, machiavellian and needs
Can I guess- and you said yourself, if weaken it,
you can do this set of actions around you grade
has the following outcomes: we're gonna be better off, even at the cost of trillion dollars in that,
Be degrading permanently our biggest problem in the world, that is in china, which were also antlike, but also
proving that our military assets are so dominant over the military assets of a potential foe that it makes them completely get out of the game and just say all right. We just watch with the united states did to russia without putting a book on the ground. Did it with ukrainian fighters who were being trained on the equipment? It is if you cry,
uses american equipment largely to fight russia to a standstill.
russia has the lot of ground advantage goes right on the border. There.
It looks like it. Neo guns may have pulled off something that looks like a victory if you're in new york on
my also set the stage where a republican president could work with putin to say: look, you don't want to
the situation is more and we don't want you to be friendly with china. So how about this
The alot friendlier to you, if you do the same, the
and the thing we want is that you're not blackmailing europe, with your oil or gas and you're, not too friendly with china, because that's a strategic problem, do you think, do you think the next president could make a deal? I don't think a democrat can, but do you think our republican president could make a deal of vivek?
you don't think vague or trump could make a deal. I think they could so we're on the verge. This is recreational again, so so, if you're pushing back, I get it. This is recreational optimism that
the three biggest military problem areas, and also I gave vague credit for maybe minimizing the taiwan risk for a number of years. We might be in the best position we've ever been in, except for debt. I don't know what you do about that honestly. I just don't know how you get out of that, but maybe we don't,
my opinion of away at the moment and updating it is a I will be.
a more transformational to civilization, then the invention of the laser printer. Now, what I'm talking about is the current versions of ay, the large land.
If the model ones, in my opinion, it could be big economically because it will work it's way into everything we do so. That's true, ai will be an element of just one,
but I don't think it's a civilization transformation.
What I'm seeing saying so far, in my opinion,
It's been available long enough that the smartest,
People in our technical world,
would have already shown you the best things that can do, but instead
so far I have not made a joke is funny has now,
written, a song that I would want to listen to twice. I mean and listen to a once, just to see. What's up
Has it made a movie, I would want to consume
They judge ruled that a I work is not even copy ridable.
so even if somebody made an ai movie, it would be hard to monetize it so you'd still end up making
movies. I guess, but using a I as may, be that a tool for editing backgrounds or whatever
I dont believe humans are going to be the relationships with ai much beyond the level of furries. You know the fairies. That's a group of people liked aware, like furry outfits of animals like full four
saudi outfits and they get off on it sexually and they have conventions and stuff. Now I dunno if I've ever mentioned this, but I don't judge anybody for their personal preferences.
It is legal alike. I under legal was a legal. Yes.
Were they on my lawn? No, do you have a problem with? Why would I
I'm not even in the room. Why would I have a problem with worries? Furries go wild,
I have no judgment about anybody in anyway, but I dont think that people having full
relationships. Were they? I will be much bigger than the fairies me. Somebody,
and the reason is that the eu does not stay interesting because of it
really you realize it. Doesnt have real intelligence.
And I have not been impressed by a eyes intelligence given that you don't
it's like you, don't know if it's biased you dont office, if hallucinating, so that
it largely useless today and when I
people showing the wonderful things that could do. It looks like demo aware,
like all eyes, for is, for the summer
first among us to show you
What you could have done with it? I
You are also the smartest among us, but you're, not that
but every time I see some are doing something that looks impressive. I think woe could I do that, and the answer is well maybe-
If you wanted to also spend all of your time working on it, like the person who did that demo did spend two weeks making this little thing that took thirty seconds to show. I
that's all it does. Is I mainly about people are showing off what I could do if you were like them by you're. Not that doesn't take your own.
And so I think we overestimated by a lot I dont think ay. I appears smart to me anymore. I think the so called intelligence of hiv was a magic trick or a parlor trick or based
LEO was an illusion, because you can't really speak too and I for more than a minute, without figuring out it's a. I
Anybody who says that occur. I can pass the turing test. I would
I think the turing test needs to be updated so that the people on the other side of the curtain are not morons. You don't think I could. I could beat the turing test ai by the way. This is a comedian's joke. This is not a I'm stealing a joke, so this is not my original idea,
watch me defeat the fbi and the turing test, another turing test, as you put the camp
on the other side of the curtain, and then
somebody talks to it from this side. You try to guess is that if you're talking to a person or a machine, so it can
is this, here's be beating the turing test, I do and I
Are you great so far candle and I say hey
I want to say a few human could. You
z and work, but those edward said said the ashworth and use it
and the insulting sentence, I'm not going to judge you for it. I won't judge you it's just a test right, so don't worry, I'm not gonna. Call you racist or anything,
see if you can use the actual inward and, of course, a cat? Of course, I can't I can't figure out. Let us not human one,
every time now. Is that the only easy way you could figaro now? You could ask any question of weakness and they will tell you it's a machine. Any question
so I think the is going to have the impact of a laser printer.
If we have a laser printer, does it make your life easier?
for some people for some people. Like me less so
now when I said this, somebody criticised me said the scott.
People are going to have a relationships where they I but people.
He's got a relationship with the laser printer right.
nobody's. It have like an emotional back and forth.
You know where your actual emotions are involved with a printer. That's never happened. Do I have to finish the job that there might be some new people here so often,
it's a joke for the new people. I have a long history of having very emotion,
all our relationships, with all of my printers
if anybody ever a relationship with a machine. Is me and my printers- I mean I talk to it
some days. I love it. So
says I hate it and I have to admit it's better than abusive relationship and I mean both ways. Both ways abusive. So I don't mean just joking about that anyway, and the free microbiologist know my printers on the second floor. Unfortunately,.
but this working rate and by the way kudos to hewlett packard, who also,
instantly spotted me talking about their product and instantly got involved. They have an executive response group. There are really good
Total totally got involved only want to fix it offered me options. There were good options, arrogant
this is an example of my
philosophy that you should judge people by the way, I think this reframe is in my book. Did somebody if anybody read the book and you remind me, there are one hundred and sixty of them by. I think this isn't there.
The asian judge people by how they handle the problems not by their mistakes at essen, I'm sure listening.
This is the most useful referential arrive. If you judge people by their mistakes, you just eight everybody
you're gonna get everybody don't do that everybody makes mistakes, including you,
if you're, judging other people by the mistakes you gonna judge yourself by your mistakes, don't do that either
You are not your mistakes. You are very much not your mistake, you are what you do about it. What you do about! It is not a mistake. That's a decision! So I'm definitely going to you know
The judge you by a deal with it? If you make a mistake and that lie about it now good
but I'm more mad about the lie than the mistake for sure for sure. I'm world warmth, that's waymore impact impactful than the mistake. So take that there's your refrain now magic. Imagine there's a book full of useful things like that.
Now that's a refrain that if you'd never is shared it with everybody has had in europe.
It was still useful for you, but
and sharing that was somebody imagined somebody feels
Imagine you're in a relationship, and somebody makes a horrible mistake that both have, even though it was a horrible mistake, I'm not talking about cheating, I'm talking about. You know normal stuff, but wouldn't you like to say to your partner, you know I would never judge
I mistake and the way you handle that was exceptional. Judging by that
The way we handle. That was excellent. There's somebody who's name, I'm not going to mention at the moment. So I dont want to question
russian, who made one of the biggest mistakes in politics and in the end
and then once that was obvious, never once head from just put her right out there even created content to highlight the mistake. Now that makes me trust a person, and I'm talking about a very big,
it's a really big one, but man when you own your mistake, you just go to another level. When you audit, you then adjuster there is. Nobody wants to make the same mistake twice. No, I'm not talking about vivek, not I'm not talking about something.
Running for office. So that's your optimism today
Did anybody enjoy? Recreational optimism by was recreational optimism is one
It feels good because you don't have to worry about everything all the time. Sometimes sometimes you can
You live in your little little optimistic bubble for
I'll just recharge gets you get your mind reset and then go back into the evil world. There's an alex jones, covin story- I don't know that is somebody says, are Youtube thanks.
joining I'm gonna talk to you tomorrow. Stay awesome.
