Episode 1963 Scott Adams - Massive Government Corruption And Why Nothing Will Happen About It

good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of civilization it's called coffee with Scott Adams there's never been a finer moment in your life and it's probably just going to get better and if you'd like to take it up to levels that the simulation can only imagine all you need is a cover a mug or a glass of tanker jealous of Stein that canteen jugular flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid I like coffee and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure the dopamines in the day the thing makes everything better it's called the simultaneous sip it happens now go ah well big news and of uh California there's some proposed legislation to legalize um psychedelics not all of them but they're looking to legalize uh silos ibenz Silo Sim so mushrooms basically DMT mescaline including peyote and what I never heard of ibogaine ibogained has anybody ever heard of that one how could there be an awesome drug I haven't heard of ibogaine anyway the politician who's proposing this is uh Democrat named Scott weiner Scott weiner now just clarification Scott weiner is an entirely it's a complete other person some people think it's referring to one of my body parts but no he's actually a separate like a complete human with all of his Parts his name is Scott weiner I know it's confusing it seems like it's about my wiener but it's not that's actually his name he's a real person clarifying so uh I've been laughing about this for two days does anybody follow on Twitter uh Jake Shields who's a former UFC MMA fighter five-time world champion does any anybody uh anybody follow him all right so I don't know the whole back story all I saw was one one few tweets and a video but based on what I can understand there's somebody named Mike Jackson who must have been calling Jake Shields a uh a Nazi over social media so that's I'm intuiting that's the concept here not intuitive but um and then the video shows Jake shields on top of him in a gym you know to totally subduing them while people are trying to pull Jake off him and then Jake just tweets this I finally ran into the uh Mike Jackson and then he says he quickly discovered the difference between calling people Nazis in person versus on Twitter he quickly discovered the difference now as I said when I retweeted it I disavow all violence I'm I'm not in favor of violence but I can't help it when it's funny I feel like that has to be called out this is this is funny violence some of the funniest violence you'll see today so totally against violence don't do any violence but if you do funny violence I'm very likely to tweet it hurts we thread by uh Cabot Phillips about male fertility saying that in the last 50 years the average male sperm count was dropped 62 percent and testosterone rates are down over 30 percent and then he says we know what's causing the drop but a few leaders seem interested in talking about it do we do you think we know what's causing the drop in uh testosterone well when he says we I suppose he means doctors of the medical community but I feel like they might have left out a few I feel like there's a few a few notes short of a symphony so let me tell you which things he mentions I see your comments I'll tell you which things he mentions has clearly related all right so male obesity would you agree male obesity lowers your testosterone you all knew that right and definitely uh obesity is up okay so we'll we'll accept that um let's see there's also um uh what is it uh oh forever chemicals I've been hearing this phrase forever chemicals some kinds of plastics and other chemicals apparently just never disintegrate and it's getting into our bodies and probably having some suppressive effect on her fertility so that's scary all right so we've got the uh the manner men are getting fat and uh there's more anxiety that sounds right doesn't it more anxiety so men with anxiety might produce less sperm and have less testosterone so those are three things the forever chemicals and maybe just chemicals in general um obesity of the man and anxiety or lowering their testosterone can you think of can you think of anything else is there anything left off the list for example I saw somebody mention the fauci fauci that was funny that's ouchy let's blame that guy for everything inflation all right some of you are saying soy and I don't know if that's scientifically demonstrated uh so I'm not going to say that the science supports that I think I think the science says not that it lowers your testosterone but doesn't it mimic some female hormones is the claim right I want to make sure I don't get sued but the claim is that it mimics female hormones not that it detracts from your testosterone or is that necessarily always the same I don't know the answer to that question but but would you agree that it's it's notably is notably missing even if only to mention that you know you would expect it to be mentioned right even if the mention was some people think it's this but the science doesn't quite support it you'd think it'd be mentioned yeah The Vaping vaping not mentioned but that would be another example of chemicals getting into you how about for pharmaceuticals in general I saw your comment earlier yeah Pharmaceuticals in general now the VA the vaccinations are largely um are largely listen how do I say this best the vaccinations happened well after the trend so that the trend was really solidly in place way before the vaccinations now if the vaccinations made it worse I don't think the data could tell you one way or the other at this point but maybe I mean who knows what else I I want to see how far I can get before the most obvious answer appears to you there's a way more obvious answer and it's just hilarious that nobody thinks of it because there's like a magic trick going on the magic trick is diverting you and I I don't mean to be unkind in the following thing I'm going to stick to what I think is just factual I'm not trying to make fun of anybody right they mentioned obese men so men are getting fatter do you think it makes any difference that the women are getting fatter too because nobody doubts that right it's not it's not just men getting fatter the women are getting fatter too and let me ask you this I ain't to be brutal do you think men are going to have as much of a testosterone let's say response to a lesser attractive woman oh well I don't know I'm no scientist but I'm guessing did you know that it that when a man gets married his testosterone drops how many of you knew that would you get married your testosterone just below why it's it's because presumably your attraction to the woman you married in just the normal reasons of life would decrease so you get you know married to the one person who's going to become less attractive over time not for any fault of their own it could be just you know age and familiarity and all that stuff so does anybody believe that men's testosterone is unrelated to female stimulation am I am I too far into the non-scientific or am I still scientifically valid that's that's well understood right that if you put a man around attractive women attractive to him again we won't make a judgment call right so we're not doing any fat shaming everybody clear on that this is not fat shaming this is just talking about science right and and weight is big part so why is that left out like how how can you leave that out now let me tell you something I noticed uh since I've recently transitioned no not that way not that way from being married to not married I can feel the testosterone difference I can feel it and that I said the other day that I haven't had a bad day in two months and now I know what it is my voice is deeper my um my muscle gain was instant my my Feel My overall feeling of well-being like yesterday I was just standing there feeling good I was literally just standing there in my kitchen and I thought my God I feel good just that just all over and and it was it took me a while to figure out what it was now I'd been doing everything right from you know exercise to sleep to you know diet and everything so I've been getting everything right health-wise but I could actually feel the testosterone being higher I mean I don't have any doubt that is higher it just feels higher like my whole attitude of life the way I see everything and the other way that you can feel it is I'm afraid of almost nothing is there any men here who can back me up on this what do you ever do you have the feeling that you can tell your testosterone is high that might be just my impression because I feel like I can tell is because when you walk into a room you either own it or you're part of it that's the difference when your testosterone is high and you walk into a round a room you own the room you just own it you know it you act like it and everybody else can tell too now that that parses my head I feel like other people can tell but when I walk into a room and my chemistry is right I just own the room the and there's the room is helpless like that's the way it feels right that's just the impression and other men saying the same thing right yeah and the the scariest part is that you lose fear because fear is actually pretty useful right keeps you out of trouble and and sometimes when my testosterone feels High I feel that I'm losing too much fear and then I start to be concerned but not afraid concerned that I'm Not Afraid enough that I'm you know I'm in dangerous territory it's a very male thing I don't think women could quite relate to it who knows some of us in my head all right how about some other things how about uh just the way the way men are treated in society the value of a man at least in terms of society's average opinion is way down so men are losing like they're losing at life when you're losing a life when you're losing a life your testosterone goes lower and men are losing at life because there are too many of them and they're not getting dates and they're not succeeding in their careers all right somebody brought up earlier how about masturbation without checking does it lower a man's testosterone masturbation yes or no seems obvious right the most obvious thing is that masturbation would lower your testosterone except that you're wrong Google it I wasn't sure I just Googled it a minute ago according to Google's top answer you know where they they sort of summarize the answers no difference no difference at all like there's no statistical difference do you believe that you know you can definitely feel that it lowers your energy and maybe it feels like it lowers it at some point in the process but I would say I don't feel that it lowers it overall so I would say that uh I would say that sex or that uh orgasms in general don't lower your testosterone except maybe some short-term thing it may be temporary right so anyway this is a scientific bunk New York Times magazine was writing a story about tick tock which suggests that the the illegitimate press is finally figured out that they better get on the right side of the tick tock thing because there's basically nobody on the other side literally nobody unless they're actually just you know bought off so here's what they say 47 of likely U.S voters believe that uh uh oh wait has Biden Biden made the country worse I got my uh got my titles worth so this is Rasmussen Rasmus has said 47 of the voters think Biden has made things worse that's not what I'm talking about I'm talking about uh tick tock so here's how the New York Times magazine talks about tick tock dammit they had a really good quote there that I apparently wrote over with another quote so you won't hear that but here is the general point of it the general point of it is the the New York Times uh is trying to find a way to describe Tick-Tock as you know not the obvious worst thing in the world and needs to be removed immediately so listen to one of the ways that they excuse the Biden Administration the Biden Administration has been negotiating with bite dance for a year about you know how to how to handle the tick tock situation now is that the way you would have characterized it would you characterize a year has gone by with nothing happening well there's a major uh security concern and no argument on the other side see the no argument on the other side part is really important why would it take a year to negotiate something when there's nothing to negotiate there's nothing to negotiate you just say we ban you and then they're not in the app stores and it's over there's nothing to negotiate the the fact that the New York Times has to give cover to Biden and saying they're negotiating for a year there's no negotiating going on who thinks that's real does anybody think they're actually negotiating for a year of course not that's the most ridiculous lie I've ever seen well maybe not the most ridiculous so yeah we we have some real questions there um and we have to assume that the government is corrupt because the tick tock thing like I say it doesn't have an argument on the other side and when you see that we see them not able to act when there's no argument that's got to be corruption right because even incompetence doesn't explain it because it's just an executive order like it would be the easiest thing you could ever do like you don't even have to do work Biden could just say write an executive order band Tick Tock I'm you know I'm the head of the military so just go do it that would be it you know it couldn't be more obviously corruption related speaking of corruption um the theme for the rest of this is uh that the whole government has corrupt in various ways and it occurred to me today that if Trump takes the Crooked Hillary um concept and just applies it to the entire FBI Department of Justice CIA and if he just says look I'm just going to fire the top several layers of management in all of these organizations I don't even know which ones are good and which ones are bad and I can't tell but I'm going to get rid of two levels of management from the top down in all of these organizations I'm just going to give them all a haircut I'm just going to mow the lawn and I'm sorry I don't know which ones are good and which ones are bad and this will be bad for the ones who are good and got taken out but for the good of the country these these organizations have lost our trust we just have to mow the lawn time to do maintenance it's just basic maintenance it's like not personal it's just you've gotta you just gotta Shore up the Republic now what have I taught you is the best most powerful form of persuasion go fear correct got it on the first try fear don't you think that the entire government being corrupt scares people now I don't know if it scares people on the left yet because they may they may be getting such fake news that they don't have no idea what's going on but between the you know the concern about the vaccinations whether that whole thing was handled honestly that the concern about the FBI which has now gone beyond concern is proof that they were working against the legally elected government you know that that's just now in evidence and I think Trump could make a case that if he goes with draining the swamp but nobody's going to listen to that because he didn't do any draining the swamp it has to be more specific I'm going to fire two layers of all of these organizations I'm just going to replace all the management that's been there for more than a year or something like that anyway I think you could do that you're the fellowing things that are uh oh and I would also call it a tourniquet strategy so imagine if Trump went after all the corrupt organizations but also in every rally he went through the hoaxes that the country has suffered because of the media right like there's at least 20 of them that he could mention he could throw in a new one in every rally all right here's my third rally hoax number three and there's just speak about the hoax and then it becomes like a little news bite and they just hit every hoax until the news can summarize them I hear all the hoaxes that you know Trump has debunked anyway the January 6 hoax committee I call them a hoax because I can't take the January 6 committee seriously um there are four things they have recommended to the Department of Justice their recommendations have no weight no standing and no functional purpose whatsoever because the Department of Justice is already investigating everything they care about like they weren't waiting the Department of Justice wasn't waiting for this public information to be packaged up like it doesn't have any it's just not a part of any uh justice system process is literally just for the news so they have something to talk about and you know propaganda so here are the four things the question I want to ask you is if you know what projection means where you blame somebody of doing the exact crime that you're doing see if this sounds like projection because the committee did seem like a bunch of toxic narcissists and there they project so just ask yourself if the things that they're saying that Trump did is there anything in the past few years that you would say would apply to the Democrats for example number one obstruction of an official proceeding is there anything that any Democrats have done in the past several years that would look like obstruction of an official proceeding yes Lots about conspiracy to defraud the U.S I don't even know what that refers to I watched this whole thing and I don't know what that is what exactly would the be the conspiracy to defraud something the election by by saying the election wasn't fair according to him all right have the Democrats ever done a conspiracy to defraud the U.S Russia collusion hoax of course they have yeah the Democrats run one conspiracy after another to defraud the U.S it's Non-Stop how about making a false statement can you believe that they want the Department of Justice to prosecute Trump for making a false statement could you be more specific you know could you be less specific all the Democrats do is make false statements yeah that's like shift's entire job the the laptop you know was disinformation it's all false statements how about inciting and insurrection who do you think incited the insurrection well I mean all of these are so subjective yeah the the FBI so to me to me it looks like just projection that's all I see now of course it'll work because the the Democrats will embrace it now I saw a tweet from Greg price who says uh the the person who made this announcement in other words the four charges against Trump was representative Jamie Raskin who objected to the certification of the 2016 election based on the LIE that Russian that Russia installed Trump as president now knowing as you will that Jamie Raskin is the one who read the four charges and knowing that he was personally involved in basically this crime so did when Jamie Raskin objected to the certification of the 2016 election based on the LIE that Russia installed Trump as president was he obstructing an official proceeding sort of with a bunch of was he was it a conspiracy to defraud the U.S that's exactly what it was the Russian collusion thing was a conspiracy Detroit U.S was he making a false statement yes and was he inciting an Insurrection he was literally trying to overthrow the government like overtly he said this government should be overthrown because it's a Russian whatever now could this be more obvious you know I I'm somewhat uh Infamous for saying that I didn't think projection was necessarily even real I didn't think it was honestly but until you see the real examples of it the it's hard to believe like if you didn't see example after example you wouldn't believe it on concept you know the concept of it is too ridiculous but there it is there it is this could not be a cleaner example than projection and and the the Democrats are buying it all right so today I guess the house Ways and Means Committee is going to vote on releasing Trump's tax returns has that happened yet as the vote happened probably not I would have heard about it so uh what What's the dog not barking do you hear the biggest dog in the world not barking like a really really big dog not barking they Congress has his tax returns they've looked at them they have nothing to complain about apparently apparently there's no crime there don't you think if there were if there were anything in the taxes do you think it would have leaked that's a you know that's not a real question of course it would have leaked a hundred percent chance that's one of the things you don't have to wonder about yeah right not one leak about his taxes do you know what that means It could only mean one thing there's only one thing that means there's nothing there but what does it mean that they want to release them what is the second thing it means it means that they know that the press and the public are now sophisticated at looking at tax returns and that the president public will generate unlimited stories of how what bad problems they found that are not real they'll just take stuff out of context right so clearly the only reason they want to release them is to embarrass Trump and make him less electable now if they're not claiming that there are any crimes in there and so far they're not if they're not claiming there are any crimes in there what should be the response to Congress releasing them if there's no claim of impropriety and they release them and they they take his uh his uh privacy well let me give you my opinion it should be illegal and it should be the death penalty now it's not illegal so I'm not recommending any violence or anything like that I'm saying that if you were to rate the the seriousness of it they are taking down a president right in front of you or trying to they're trying to alter the the course of the Republic by doing something that apparently doesn't have a legal or country benefit and they're doing it right in front of you and they're not even claiming there's a crime in there right in front of you they're not doing it to Trump they're doing it to you because when this this if this standard Falls then anybody's taxes or fair game for anybody why wouldn't they release mine they say hey this guy keeps saying things we don't like let's release his taxes we'll always stop them is it because Trump's president and I'm not that's not a law is it is there some law that says presidents have to release their taxes no it's the opposite there's no law there's no law so if they do it anyway it was he's just a citizen whose taxes got released because they thought it was what politically useful of interest to the public is that good enough the public would be interested so I guess they could show the public my tax returns too right because the public would be interested wouldn't they they say oh he talks about politics I'd like to see his taxes where does that stop now I don't believe in the slippery slope you know predicting everything because it doesn't but in terms of how bad this is you know again without any specific claim of illegality this is this is a 10 out of 10.

you're you're watching them you know let's say digitally crucify somebody just so he won't run for president that's all it is and we're we're sitting here accepting that like well I guess they get I guess they followed the rules unfucking believable yeah and what about the whole revelation of the the Twitter files so uh Michael schellenberger did another you know great Twitter thread yesterday and at this point is very clear all the evidence suggests that Jim Baker is the key figure who went from you know top legal position at the FBI to Twitter and it's obvious that Twitter was trying to control um trying to they did a good job of of influencing Twitter they were even paying Twitter three million dollars for Twitter answering their questions now that that's not like a big profit Center so I don't think Twitter was influenced by the money like everybody's influenced by money but that was actually a small amount and it kind of just covered their expenses so I don't think that was the motivation it's it's truth they got money but I don't think that it was too small to motivate them um now we know at this point that the FBI was totally corrupt I'm going to use corrupt in an expansive sense not necessarily legal sense because I don't know if they violate any laws but what they did was a a form of corruption that as Jordan Peterson tweeted I think yesterday is way worse than Watergate and you hate to say that right because it's such a punch line it's worse than Oregon the walls are closed in but it would be hard to argue this one it would be hard to debate you know what we know for sure like the things that are not in question at all just the things we know for sure are way worse than Watergate it's not even in the same planet am I wrong well it's way worse and what will what will happen from all of it probably nothing probably nobody will be punished for anything is my guess um all right so the former FBI general counsel I think this was a was this Greenwald or sheldberg who said this now do you think it's a total lie that Baker believed it was still a question about whether the laptop was real or not because Baker was saying well you know we can't tell for sure whether the laptop is real so I'm not saying it's not real but we can't tell for sure is that a lie is it is a lie that he couldn't tell for sure how would he know because at that point the FBI had not validated it only the New York Post had so as far as he knew although it was it could have been validated like the the assets and the time to do it were there but they had not been is that a lie well I'd say it's a lawyer lie it's a legal lie like if you said do you really believe that it hasn't been validated I think he could get away with it in court and say yes the only evidence I am aware of was the New York Post I don't consider them credible for whatever reason and the FBI said they had not verified it so what am I supposed to say if the FBI says they don't know what am I supposed to say right so he does have a defense I'm not sure I would call it a lie but the odds that he knew exactly what he was doing seemed very high can we agree can we agree that the the odds that he knew exactly what he was doing are very high very very high but he has a defense um and now we know that the Department of Justice was reading the emails of Devin Nunes and cash Patel what during the actual period of Devin Nunes trying to get to the bottom of the Russia collusion hoax the Department of Justice found a clever excuse to read his emails and cash Patel on baby some other staffers oh my God am I surprised now of course but oh my God you could take any one of these stories and this is worse than Watergate where we're at like five times worse than Watergate five different ways it's it's almost too much to even and this is what I worry about if there had been one like clean little scandal than the you know the Republicans would pounce on it and the media would have to talk about it and maybe like something would happen like Watergate Watergate was pretty much one little story of the break-in and it was like a clean little story but there is so much bad going on at the same time that we're finding out about so so much corruption that I wouldn't know where to even focus like I'm actually the was it the uh the ooda loop what's that called the Udu Loop I'm saying it wrong Cuda UDA the UDA Loop so basically if you just keep um being pushed by the new information you can never deal with the information that you had before in other words new information is just pushing you forward and you're like hey what about that other thing uh okay on to the new thing so as long as you just keep getting pushed by the new headlines you can't really deal with any of the individual Badness it's just too big and too spread out and too complicated I think they get away with everything that's what I think I think they will get away with everything because they know how to do it they know how to just just make the the environment impossible to to come after them um all right here's another Scandal like I I don't forget if I mentioned this I think I did that the Biden Administration said they created a million jobs right before the election it was just a complete lie the real number what rounds to zero the difference between you know ten thousand I think and a million just a clear obvious clean lie do you think it would have affected the election to know that the jobs president as he would like to call himself created you know basically no jobs unbelievable unbelievable and I'm trying to think what is anything that the Trump Administration ever did that would be in this class of Badness like there's plenty of stuff you didn't like right there are things you didn't like that Trump did but do they do anything like this that just like is like obvious corruption well you know we'll never agree on on the vaccination thing but you have to you have to judge Trump by what he knew at the time so that's going to be tough because our brains don't work that way you know we're going to judge by what we know now we're not going to judge him by what he knew and what everybody knew at the time that we simply don't have the ability to do it like I love that we were smart enough and wise enough and you know mature enough to say well he acted on what he knew at the time no we're not as you as you can see the comments we're definitely not all right um so here's what reality is done there are two realities about the coveted shots in one reality um they were a huge success but there's some question about whether they make sense for younger people especially men so that's one movie that maybe I don't know half of the country has I'm not saying what's true and what's false I'm just saying what what their reality is so the reality is that the shots were a huge success they're glad they got them saved millions of lives but maybe but maybe because of Omicron we should rethink younger people and especially younger males in the other movie uh the shots were simply more harm than good and that that has been so well demonstrated that that's just true that we already know without having to wait any further we don't have to wait for the future we already know what the future looks like and that we already know that there will be more harm in the future than benefit from the vaccinations now again I'm not saying what's true or false I'm saying that these two realities live completely and and they're opposites right they can't both be true now would you agree that's that's our current situation again not don't tell me what's true or what's false is that our current situation that we have two realities okay here's what here's what I'm going to add to this it will never be resolved do you know why why will it never be resolved into one reality because that's not how anything works here's why as long as those two realities can operate they will as long as they can they will and there's nothing that's going to happen that will make them have to merge now you say to yourself but Scott what about that the new data that will come in later to which I say who's going to believe data you don't believe the data you had why would you believe the new data so if you can't prove it with science and data because we just won't believe them how would ever be resolved now one way would be yes one side predicts well and the other doesn't that that's a good sign of who's right right if one with one world view predicts and it just keeps getting the predictions right well maybe that's the good one right but what will the two World Views predict one world view will predict that the vaccinations worked and there won't be much trouble from the vaccinations the other one says that there'll be Mass problems from the vaccinations and then which prediction will be correct whose prediction will be correct the mass problems or the hey it worked out fine in the future who will be predicted you won't know both right they will both be completely supported by the data they can't both be true can't both be true but they will be completely supported by data that the side that wants to believe it accepts we're now here's the interesting part is this different than the way it has always been for other topics do we always do we always Retreat into two different worlds and we just live in them and it never matters we just forever are in because remember we've been in the um the the anti-vaccination Two Worlds for a long time way before covid we already had two movies that lived permanently and they were opposites that the childhood vaccinations were bad versus the childhood vaccinations were unambiguously good and they lived they lived completely as two realities all right here's my take neither of those realities are true do you know why I say that because none of the realities are true everything you see is sort of like a user interface for something you don't understand so when you use your computer and you're you're you're punching an icon you see the icon but that's not what the computer is the computer is zeros and ones organized in ways you don't see and don't understand right you're you're at the user interface level that's a user interface level you don't know if what's behind it is uh Unix or Mac OS or some windows thing right if all you see is a screen because yeah you can make a you can make a browser look like anything so I don't believe in a objective reality that we have access to there might be an adjusted reality but I believe that whether vaccine vaccinations work or don't work is not a base reality then neither of those are base reality their base reality is just something you don't understand but as long as you can live a world where internally everything is consistent if you're in the world where vaccinations are good or the world where they're bad as long as you can live your life and reproduce that's all you need it's all you need but neither of you are right you're you're just at the user interface level so here's what you're arguing you'll hear two buttons on the screen you're saying No this is the button to do the thing and the other person said no this is the button to do the things but you're only talking about buttons you're not talking about anything in base reality because we don't have access to it uh time lapse charts here what's the truth I want the truth you're never going to get it a reality has forked so I asked uh on Twitter I did a poll and I said did you fall for the mass Hysteria generated by trolls that said I personally was pro-vaccine and pro mask and I'm going to give you a little test of uh to see how good you are predicting roughly what percentage of the public who answered the poll believed the met the mass hysteria that I was pro-vaccine and pro mask very good very good guesses yeah about a quarter yeah roughly roughly 25 but about a quarter yeah didn't see that coming total surprise when I when I ran the poll I could never have anticipated that result if you knew the live stream none of this makes sense but trust me it's a very funny inside joke all right somebody called me a fence sitter on uh vaccinations the FED sitter isn't that very similar to somebody who's waiting for enough information to have a good decision yeah could you be a is it bad to be a fence sitter when the information is nodded what would be the smarter way to go huh we don't really know what the future holds therefore I'll be positive if you're positive that you can determine the future I don't think the problem's on my end I will defend my inability to discern the future but you need to defend your ability to discern the future because I don't have that so Kerry Lake's lawsuits I guess two of her ten claims are going to go forward one of them involving the printers malfunctioning on Election Day and the other involving the chain of custody for some of the ballots but do you have any hope that that will change anything I feel like all of these complaints of corruption they they get slathered on the bureaucracy and then the bureaucracy just squirms around for a while and then nothing happens like I feel like uh the court is where everything goes to die well if you want nothing happened take it to court you'll get a you'll get a nothing there so I don't think anything's going to happen from these like I'm glad she's pressing the case because wouldn't you like to know more of course you would I'd like to know more about this situation if a lawsuit's the only way we can get to the you know the next level of understanding then I'm all for it but I wouldn't I wouldn't be optimistic not at all right ladies and gentlemen I believe we've covered all the news it's fit to sip that's my new that's that should be my new tagline all the News That's fit to sip and I think that we need another sip because as this 2022 comes to a close I feel like we're going to have to spend some days on some uh let's say aggressive positivity what do you think I think I'm going to start bending my presentation toward gratitude uh just so we could get a little dose of dose of Christmas spirit a little bit of uh appreciating each other Maybe a little less of the bad and uh so I will be complimenting people that maybe I've disagreed with because I think that's good practice um I will uh be telling all of you how much I appreciate you now well let me do that now I mean I'm sure I've done it before but you can't get enough of it can you um I think you kept me alive like I think you just kept me alive because I had some you know tough medical stuff to go through this year you know on top of personal stuff um but oh my God I can't imagine going through this year without this experience so being connected to you in this in this way um is my fuel right and it also gives me something to look forward to when when I wake up in the morning the first thing I think is oh boy I get to do this I don't know I'm not sure how other podcasts feel about what they do does Joe Rogan think it's work or does he just still love it I hope he loves it but I don't think of this as work like it doesn't feel even a little bit workish and I put more energy into this than anything else I do and none of it feels like work and it's because because of the interaction it's because there's it feels like something important it feels valuable it feels like it's helping and and that's sort of connects me to that connects me to my most basic uh if you want to say evolutionary my basic biological need is to be useful and yeah I wish I could turn it off if I could turn it off and not not need to be useful I could I could have a pretty good life just go spend my money and said the beach or something I don't I hear people like that but that's not for me like I just have to be useful or my day doesn't work so that's why I do this and it's fun um yeah and I do feel like I do feel like we've formed some kind of mutual responsibility accidentally I mean certainly voluntary you know nobody's making you do anything but um I feel like at least based on the comments people say that I've I've helped some people this year and wow if you help me you have helped me so much I can't even can't even tell you and let me tell you what that does let me tell you what that does so as you know I just finished a book that won't be out until September but um that book was written primarily for you meaning that you know my interaction like surfaced that the reframes where I reframe a topic so you just feel better about it or it could be more effective that that really made a difference and so I put put a bunch of them in a book and um am I dying no I'm not dying uh I put him put a bunch of them in a book and mostly because I thought you would like it like it in the sunset it'll be useful so all right um you know it's also weird I feel myself getting healthier and stronger every day and that's not supposed to happen at my age right like I don't think it's true necessarily but like I have a great feeling of things improving yeah well we love you too um some of you are praying for me I appreciate that Mike malice recommends self-publishing yeah it depends where you are in the publishing World um if you're an established writer it probably makes sense to use a publisher if you're successful but maybe not a household name yet maybe that's different better all the time that's right well thank you you're saying nice things uh yeah I'm not taking any blood pressure meds you know I have such basic questions about science now I I'm not even sure that high blood pressure is bad for me now please don't take any medical advice for me don't take any medical advice for me here I just have this open question I've always believed that I run hot meaning that when I sleep when I wake up I'm like covered with sweat right and I just feel I run hot like I'm just overclocked I'm not sure that high blood pressure for me specifically predicts now that could be the dumbest thing anybody ever said and I'd be open to I'd be open to correction right if Dr.

Drew tells me tomorrow Scott's got the the science is unambiguous you know above some level you're definitely in trouble now if I hear that I will modify my opinion but I don't trust any of the data anymore like none of it and I feel as if uh if I do everything else right it's right like I'm not drinking I'm not smoking tobacco uh you know my diet is pretty clean if I'm doing everything else right is running a little high on uh on blood pressure gonna give me a stroke like can anybody know that because I feel like they don't study me am I right like they didn't study me any study they do is going to be like a big group of people isn't it am I right now I realize this is uh yeah it's absurd for somebody with like me with no medical training whatsoever to make that kind of a statement so again do not make any medical changes based on anything you hear from me right you could take your vitamin D I feel you know I feel if I tell you to you know lose weight and exercise amongst you know safe ground but when it comes to what meds you take do not listen to me all right I'm just saying I don't I don't believe the entire structure and then when I look at the trade-off like if the only way I could lower my blood pressure if it makes a difference is the only way I could do it was with these meds that totally destroyed my quality of life now I don't know maybe there's some other bed that doesn't who knows but I doubt it I kind of doubt that lowering my blood pressure no matter what drug I use I doubt that's good for me I could be wrong I'm totally open to being wrong somebody says is narcissistic is it is it narcissistic to say I don't trust Medical Science within the context of knowing it's been lying to us it's not like it's not like I'm guessing that sometimes they give us bad information I mean that's the most established fact you could ever establish uh oh here's one Jillian says Really Scott regulations would allow houses to be built 150 times faster I can't tell if you're joking you're not you're not imagining that I think that right uh all right he's joking Maybe he had doctors incurring smoking at one time right Ashley says when will I release my full power and save the country does the country need save it I don't know I think the country's doing okay you know you'd have to be more specific what is it I'm saving or let me ask you this what is it that I'm that I've been uh persuading that you don't think is going to go my way so you see me persuading on Tick Tock do you think I'm not going to get my way oh that's going to get banned it's going to take way longer than I wanted to but tick tocks could get banned ESG already dead man walking right Fentanyl you don't think we're going to attack the the cartels I mean nothing happens instantly but you don't think that's going to happen of course we are yeah of course we are what is it that you want me to persuade that's not going to happen anyway I mean I I can push things I think I think there's a good chance that a Republican president whoever it is is just gonna fire everybody at the top of all those organizations De.

Santis would wouldn't it it you know I think it's somewhat unlikely but if De.

Santis became the candidate I think he could tell you he was going to fire everybody in those jobs and you'd believe it he probably would uh anti-inflammation uh oh pronouns so here's how you should deal with the pronouns part Obama gave you the formula and because you don't like Obama you won't take his advice right Obama basically says yes find to is fine to ask us to use your pronouns but don't get mad if we don't I mean I'm that's a little bit of an oversimplification that's pretty close right he's basically saying it's fine to ask for it but don't get mad at us if we get that wrong that is exactly the right take you should say you can ask for anything you want and I'll ask you the same I'll ask you not to be concerned if I use it wrong and they demand right and then you demand but you should allow their demand because they have a right to demand you don't have to do it you have a right to demand that they not care see the The High Ground The High Ground is is what Obama found Obama found The High Ground on us The High Ground is yeah you could ask for anything you want it's a free country good go ahead and ask and then when we get it wrong get over it just get over it it's not that important I think that was exactly the right take yeah if you fight it you just look like you're a bigot right if you tell them don't criticize me if I if I get some words wrong then you've turned them into the bigot you get that the way you're playing it you turn yourself into the bigot because that's just the way they can frame you the way Obama suggests you play it is to turn those people into the bigot if they have a problem with you because you didn't have a problem with them right if they want to ask go ahead I don't have a problem with anybody asking me for anything but they should also not have a problem with you You're simply asking them not to be bigots I'm not a bigot you can do what you like but I would like to say in consideration that's all that is the way to go that is the way to go I saw the following argument from Pierce Morgan who I believe is a illogical argument okay he was talking with some pro-trans person I think um and uh he was no that wasn't protrans it was pro-identification so somebody who was arguing that you know there are lots of genders and people should be able to identify with whatever gender they like and then Pierce had apparently tried to identify as a two-sold penguin a two-souled penguin and then they said hey that's no fair you can't identify as a penguin and that pierce said why not if everything's if everything's in the conversation why can't I identify as a penguin and the answer is that's not logical no you don't see a difference there you don't see a difference you're talking about people who actually believe that they you know their identification versus someone who doesn't seem the same to you now certainly the rules have to be the same like the law has to be the same so if the rules are you can identify as anything to get benefits then Pierce is right if identifying as a penguin would get you a college degree absolutely I I encourage you to identify as Penguins if you can get money for doing it of course I'm on your side be a penguin if if it pays but I don't think that's the same situation I do believe that you know you could you can characterize it as you know mental defect if you want that's that's not my position but would you disagree that the people with these identifications is because they're actually trying to identify themselves in a way they're comfortable with that makes sense that's completely different than Piers Morgan being a penguin you that's such a bad argument for Pierce and I'm surprised that he wasn't called out for it because while I think you know the identifying is stuff yeah it probably went too far but uh that's not the argument against it it's a learned ideology does that change anything that doesn't change my point so I think that I think the uh the push back here is that people are not necessarily born feeling these confusions or identifications they may they may be encouraged into it by the way their their uh socialized and that's true but that doesn't change my point it doesn't matter how you got there right if you got there because somebody influenced you or you got there because you're genetically there you're still there that's what you feel and in a free country should you should you be able to feel like somebody else's gender and then ask people to treat you that way sure sure you could ask but again you're asking does not obligate me by asking is fine I'd like to know what you think I mean if nothing else it tells me what you're thinking I like that so I'll tell you what I'm thinking I mean no harm sometimes I'll get the pronouns wrong sometimes I just won't accept that that's the right thing to say but I'm not going to take any criticism about it because I'm going to let you live your life you're going to do the same for me whether you like it or not uh it's all clownish and embarrassing behavior that makes Society look stupid is that important I I see your point like I can see why you would see it that way but is that important is it because it's not a society it's just individuals isn't it dude do you think it makes like America look bad maybe to some people yeah but has America looked bad every time it moved toward greater uh greater acceptance of people did America look bad when it gave women the vote probably to a lot of countries did it looked bad when it freed the slaves probably to some countries so I'm not sure we should be running Things based on what looks bad to countries we wouldn't want to be oh we we'd hate for Saudi Arabia to have a bad opinion of us so we better be Muslims yeah other countries opinions of us have to be put in a little little box yeah we make fun of Trudeau all day long doesn't matter to him probably not uh let's see lb LGB acknowledges sex transition don't know what the point is uh did I see Tim cast last night I did not was there something on timcast that you wanted to call him uh watch Bannon on Tim pool last night it was uh legendary what was legendary about it um oh yeah yeah it's funny Tucker Carlson is saying a couple things on television that looks like it's amazing that there's not more pushback so he flat out says F you to the Deep state are you abandoned us yeah okay uh Bannon wore a penguin suit no he didn't um what can we do about no accountability how can we accept that government accountability well um you know the the changes that Twitter might be a big part of it and maybe some of the changes that CNN will be a big part of it um so I do think that ultimately the public can turn the battleship it's just not fast turds talk all right so uh the other thing that so Tucker Carlson was saying that uh he knows for sure now from his own source that he doesn't tell us that the CIA was involved in Killing Kennedy so basically Tucker Carlson tells you that as a newly discovered fact because he's got a source but we don't know who the source is so keep that in mind now the other thing he said he just like dropped it in when he was talking to a guest he said that he knows that members of Congress are being blackmailed and he said it like he totally convinced me that he knows members of Congress are being blackmailed Now by who I don't know but blackmailed the FBI says Tucker is lying of course they do uh right Jillian says in all caps wish Scott would admit he pushed mandates and vaccines Etc now Jillian are you uh a troll who's just here like to make trouble are you actually a stupid because that would be the most stupid thing ever anybody ever said on this live stream like are you actually that ignorant and Confused well it doesn't matter we'll we'll hide you on this channel you're heading now Jillian goodbye uh uh yeah who isn't yeah yeah you're right saying that the CIA was involved is a very generic word so it could be that the CIA is involved in everything you don't like but not necessarily in a way that is illegal or unethical Scott critically argues both sides well I show the costs and the benefits it's amazing how many people believe that you should not consider the costs and the benefits of decisions like actually believe that um we think everybody's a low-level CIA you know I was watching uh Glenn grindwald tweeting this morning and he brings up AOC for her non let's say non-criticizing of the CIA and he's wondering why AOC is not criticizing the CIA what does that suggest why is he calling around by name what does that suggest I feel like you suggesting AOC as a CIA uh concoction what do you think is AOC uh a CIA asset do you think that they created her like is she a creation because she's a media creation right and who controls the media the CIA so if somebody is a media creation for the the Democrats like a like a superstar has been created artificially who did that do you think CNN talk to MSNBC and they talk to ABC they said hey let's get together and push this on our own maybe do you think they all just thought the same and that's why it looks like they coordinated maybe maybe the public was interested so they just followed the Public's interest maybe but when was the last time Glenn Greenwald was wrong about whose Court coordinating with the CIA so far not wrong so far not wrong now he doesn't come out and say it but the context doesn't leave much doubt and it doesn't seem let me ask you this does it seem believable does it seem believable the AOC would be a CIA preferred candidate or they helped her somehow yeah totally yeah that that would be easily within the ordinary line of business there wouldn't be nothing even unordinated about that that would be just typical business sure and if they're not if they're not trying to influence her why not should be the obvious one you would try to influence because she has influence you're not going to influence people who have no influence so yeah do you think she's ever met with any agents for the CIA think they've ever had lunch I think I think anybody associated with the CIA is a restaurant lunch it's Washington of course they have um am I the CIA somebody else foreign I don't know I don't know is that a scary answer it's an honest answer I don't know yeah I can tell you for sure that the CIA or people associated with it have tried to influence me but I'm not aware of anybody on the CIA payroll who has ever tried to influence me but don't you think they would if they're not trying to influence me what the hell are they doing because anybody who works for the CI can see I can move the needle and they I mean it wouldn't take long to figure that out so if they're not trying to influence me directly or indirectly they're not they're not trying hard enough now how would they do it do you know if they were trying to influence me and let's say it was happening right now and I was not aware of how would it happen how would it happen bribe me no if I were not aware of it if they were influencing me without my awareness how would it happen they would send a fake friend fake friend that's how they do it yeah you suddenly you would be befriended by somebody who's a little too anxious to be your friend that's how they do it so has that happened to me has anybody been a little too anxious to be my friend and I couldn't figure out why yes yes they have yes they have but do I know that that's part of an OP I don't no way to know yeah but I assume that the CIA would be trying to influence everybody who is themselves influential wouldn't you say don't you think anybody who's who could move the needle they're looking at and trying to maybe get a get a get a friend inserted there you know what I mean friend of the agency get a little close to you find out what's going on maybe put a little something in your ear what's the CIS is aim to control The Narrative of course now not to a specific end necessarily but always to control it because sort of their job um trolls are used and the trolls would be doing what trying to discourage me from saying some things did you also see the story about the Twitter files that the FBI kept looking for all the foreign interference in the elections and Twitter kept saying you know we're not seeing much and the FBI was like no we're all confused we know there's got to be a lot of foreign influence there and Twitter kept saying Yeah you know we looked it doesn't look like there's much and they just were not happy with that does the CIA have good or bad goals it's probably a mix because there are individuals in the CIA as well as what the CIA itself wants and then they're probably departments within the CIA who want different things than other departments it's probably never clear I mean it's it's entirely possible that some people have the the CIA helping them at the same time the CIA a different person is trying to destroy them like that wouldn't surprise me it's probably it's probably common uh will America self-correct the corruption yes but then it always gets replaced with new corruption so I don't know huh somebody's father was in the CIA in his cover position was in the Department of Agriculture okay all right I think that's all I have to for now You.

Tube I'm gonna go do something else and I will talk to you You.

Tube and Spotify and Rumble tomorrow bye

good morning everybody and welcome to

the highlight of civilization it's

called coffee with Scott Adams there's

never been a finer moment in your life

and it's probably just going to get

better

and if you'd like to take it up to

levels that the simulation can only

imagine all you need is a cover a mug or

a glass of tanker jealous of Stein that

canteen jugular flask a vessel of any

kind fill it with your favorite liquid I

like coffee

and join me now for the unparalleled

pleasure the dopamines in the day the

thing makes everything

better it's called the simultaneous sip

it happens now go

ah

well big news and of uh California

there's some

proposed legislation to legalize

um psychedelics not all of them but

they're looking to legalize

uh silos ibenz Silo Sim so mushrooms

basically DMT mescaline including peyote

and what I never heard of ibogaine

ibogained

has anybody ever heard of that one

how could there be an awesome drug I

haven't heard of ibogaine

anyway the

politician who's proposing this is uh

Democrat named Scott weiner Scott weiner

now just clarification

Scott weiner is an entirely it's a

complete other person

some people think it's referring to one

of my body parts but no he's actually a

separate like a complete human with all

of his Parts his name is Scott weiner

I know it's confusing

it seems like it's about my wiener but

it's not that's actually his name he's a

real person

clarifying

so uh

I've been laughing about this for two

days does anybody follow on Twitter uh

Jake Shields who's a former UFC MMA

fighter

five-time world champion

does any anybody uh

anybody follow him all right so I don't

know the whole back story

all I saw was one one few tweets and a

video

but based on what I can understand

there's somebody named Mike Jackson

who must have been calling Jake Shields

a uh a Nazi

over social media so that's I'm

intuiting that's the concept here not

intuitive but

um and then the video shows

Jake shields on top of him in a gym

you know to totally subduing them while

people are trying to pull Jake off him

and then Jake just tweets this

I finally ran into the uh Mike

Jackson and then he says he quickly

discovered the difference between

calling people Nazis in person versus on

Twitter

he quickly discovered the difference

now

as I said when I retweeted it I disavow

all violence I'm I'm not in favor of

violence

but I can't help it when it's funny

I feel like that has to be called out

this is this is funny violence

some of the funniest violence you'll see

today

so totally against violence don't do any

violence but if you do funny violence

I'm very likely to tweet it

hurts we thread by uh Cabot Phillips

about male fertility saying that in the

last 50 years the average male sperm

count was dropped 62 percent

and testosterone rates are down over 30

percent

and then he says we know what's causing

the drop but a few leaders seem

interested in talking about it do we do

you think we know what's causing the

drop in uh testosterone

well when he says we I suppose he means

doctors of the medical community but I

feel like they might have left out a few

I feel like there's a few a few notes

short of a symphony

so let me tell you which things he

mentions I see your comments I'll tell

you which things he mentions has clearly

related all right

so male obesity would you agree male

obesity lowers your testosterone you all

knew that right and definitely uh

obesity is up okay

so we'll we'll accept that

um let's see there's also

um

uh what is it uh

oh forever chemicals

I've been hearing this phrase forever

chemicals some kinds of plastics and

other chemicals apparently just never

disintegrate

and it's getting into our bodies and

probably having some suppressive effect

on her fertility

so that's scary

all right so we've got the uh the manner

men are getting fat and uh there's more

anxiety

that sounds right doesn't it more

anxiety

so men with anxiety might produce less

sperm and have less testosterone

so those are three things the forever

chemicals and maybe just chemicals in

general

um obesity of the man and anxiety or

lowering their testosterone can you

think of

can you think of anything else

is there anything left off the list

for example

I saw somebody mention the fauci

fauci that was funny that's

ouchy

let's blame that guy for

everything

inflation

all right some of you are saying soy

and I don't know if that's

scientifically demonstrated

uh so I'm not going to say that the

science supports that I think I think

the science says

not that it lowers your testosterone

but doesn't it mimic some female

hormones is the claim

right I want to make sure I don't get

sued but the claim

is that it mimics female hormones not

that it

detracts from your testosterone

or is that necessarily always the same

I don't know the answer to that question

but but would you agree that it's it's

notably is notably missing

even if only to mention that you know

you would expect it to be mentioned

right

even if the mention was some people

think it's this but the science doesn't

quite support it

you'd think it'd be mentioned yeah The

Vaping vaping not mentioned but that

would be another example of chemicals

getting into you how about for

pharmaceuticals in general

I saw your comment earlier yeah

Pharmaceuticals in general

now the VA the vaccinations are largely

um

are largely

listen how do I say this best the

vaccinations happened well after the

trend

so that the trend was really solidly in

place

way before the vaccinations

now if the vaccinations made it worse I

don't think the data

could tell you one way or the other at

this point but maybe I mean who knows

what else I I want to see how far I can

get before the most obvious answer

appears to you

there's a way more obvious answer

and it's just hilarious that nobody

thinks of it because there's like a

magic trick going on the magic trick

is diverting you

and I I don't mean to be unkind in the

following thing I'm going to stick to

what I think is just factual

I'm not trying to make fun of anybody

right

they mentioned obese men

so men are getting fatter

do you think it makes any

difference that the women are getting

fatter too

because nobody doubts that right it's

not it's not just men getting fatter

the women are getting fatter too

and let me ask you this I ain't to be

brutal do you think men are going to

have as much of a testosterone

let's say response to a lesser

attractive woman

oh

well I don't know I'm no scientist but

I'm guessing

did you know that it that when a man

gets married his testosterone drops how

many of you knew that would you get

married your testosterone just below

why it's it's because presumably

your attraction to the woman you married

in just the normal reasons of life would

decrease

so you get you know married to the one

person who's

going to become less attractive over

time not for any fault of their own it

could be just you know age and

familiarity and all that stuff so

does anybody believe that men's

testosterone is unrelated

to female stimulation

am I am I too far into the

non-scientific or am I still

scientifically valid

that's that's well understood right that

if you put a man around attractive women

attractive to him again we won't make a

judgment call right so we're not doing

any fat shaming

everybody clear on that this is not fat

shaming this is just talking about

science right and and weight is big part

so

why is that left out

like how how can you leave that out

now let me tell you something I noticed

uh since I've recently transitioned no

not that way not that way

from being married

to not married

I can feel the testosterone difference

I can feel it

and that I said the other day that I

haven't had a bad day in two months

and now I know what it is my voice is

deeper my

um my muscle gain was instant

my my Feel My overall feeling of

well-being

like yesterday I was just

standing there

feeling good

I was literally just standing there in

my kitchen and I thought

my God I feel good

just that just all over

and and it was it took me a while to

figure out what it was now I'd been

doing everything right from you know

exercise to sleep to you know diet and

everything so I've been getting

everything right health-wise but I could

actually feel

the testosterone

being higher I mean I don't have any

doubt that is higher it just feels

higher like my whole

attitude of life the way I see

everything and the other way that you

can feel it is

I'm afraid of almost nothing

is there any men here who can back me up

on this what do you ever do you have the

feeling that you can tell your

testosterone is high

that might be just my impression

because I feel like I can tell

is because when you walk into a room you

either own it

or you're part of it

that's the difference

when your testosterone is high and you

walk into a round a room you own the

room

you just own it you know it you act like

it and everybody else can tell too

now that that parses my head I feel like

other people can tell

but when I walk into a room and my

chemistry is right

I just own the room

the and there's the room is helpless

like that's the way it feels right

that's just the impression

and other men saying the same thing

right

yeah and the the scariest part is that

you lose fear

because fear is actually pretty useful

right keeps you out of trouble and and

sometimes when my testosterone feels

High

I feel that I'm losing too much fear and

then I start to be concerned but not

afraid concerned that I'm Not Afraid

enough that I'm you know I'm in

dangerous territory it's a very male

thing I don't think women could quite

relate to it

who knows some of us in my head

all right how about some other things

how about uh just the way

the way men are treated in society

the value of a man at least in terms of

society's average opinion is way down

so men are losing

like they're losing at life

when you're losing a life

when you're losing a life your

testosterone goes lower and men are

losing at life because there are too

many of them and they're not getting

dates and they're not succeeding in

their careers all right somebody brought

up earlier how about masturbation

without checking

does it lower a man's testosterone

masturbation yes or no

seems obvious right the most obvious

thing is that masturbation would lower

your testosterone except that you're

wrong

Google it

I wasn't sure I just Googled it a minute

ago

according to Google's top answer you

know where they they sort of summarize

the answers no difference

no difference at all like there's no

statistical difference do you believe

that

you know you can definitely feel that it

lowers your energy

and maybe it feels like it lowers it

at some point in the process

but I would say I don't feel that it

lowers it overall

so I would say that uh

I would say that sex or that uh

orgasms in general don't lower your

testosterone except maybe some

short-term thing

it may be temporary right

so anyway this is a scientific bunk

New York Times magazine was writing a

story about tick tock

which suggests that the

the illegitimate press is finally

figured out that they better get on the

right side of the tick tock thing

because there's basically nobody on the

other side

literally nobody unless they're actually

just you know bought off

so

here's what they say 47 of likely U.S

voters believe that uh

uh oh wait has Biden Biden made the

country worse I got my uh

got my titles worth so this is Rasmussen

Rasmus has said 47 of the voters think

Biden has made things worse that's not

what I'm talking about I'm talking about

uh tick tock

so

here's how the New York Times magazine

talks about tick tock

dammit

they had a really good quote there that

I apparently wrote over with another

quote so you won't hear that but here is

the general point of it the general

point of it is the the New York Times uh

is trying to find a way

to describe Tick-Tock as you know not

the obvious worst thing in the world and

needs to be removed immediately

so listen to one of the ways that they

excuse the Biden Administration

the Biden Administration has been

negotiating with bite dance for a year

about you know how to how to handle the

tick tock situation

now is that the way you would have

characterized it

would you characterize a year has gone

by

with nothing happening well there's

a major uh security concern and no

argument on the other side

see the no argument on the other side

part is really important

why would it take a year

to negotiate something when there's

nothing to negotiate

there's nothing to negotiate you just

say

we ban you and then they're not in the

app stores and it's over there's nothing

to negotiate

the the fact that the New York Times has

to give cover to Biden and saying

they're negotiating for a year there's

no negotiating going on who thinks

that's real does anybody think they're

actually negotiating for a year

of course not that's the most ridiculous

lie I've ever seen

well maybe not the most ridiculous

so yeah we we have some real questions

there

um and we have to assume that the

government is corrupt because the tick

tock thing like I say it doesn't have an

argument on the other side and when you

see that we see them not able to act

when there's no argument

that's got to be corruption

right because even incompetence doesn't

explain it because it's just an

executive order

like it would be the easiest thing you

could ever do

like you don't even have to do work

Biden could just say write an executive

order

band Tick Tock I'm you know I'm the head

of the military so just go do it that

would be it

you know it couldn't be more obviously

corruption related

speaking of corruption

um the theme for the rest of this is uh

that the whole government has corrupt in

various ways and it occurred to me today

that if Trump takes the Crooked Hillary

um

concept and just applies it to the

entire FBI Department of Justice CIA and

if he just says look

I'm just going to fire the top several

layers of management in all of these

organizations

I don't even know which ones are good

and which ones are bad and I can't tell

but I'm going to get rid of two levels

of management from the top down in all

of these organizations I'm just going to

give them all a haircut

I'm just going to mow the lawn and I'm

sorry I don't know which ones are good

and which ones are bad and this will be

bad for the ones who are good and got

taken out but for the good of the

country these these organizations have

lost our trust we just have to mow the

lawn time to do maintenance it's just

basic maintenance it's like not personal

it's just you've gotta

you just gotta Shore up the Republic

now

what have I taught you is the best

most powerful form of persuasion

go

fear correct got it on the first try

fear

don't you think that the entire

government being corrupt

scares people

now I don't know if it scares people on

the left yet because they may they may

be getting such fake news that they

don't have no idea what's going on but

between the you know the concern about

the vaccinations

whether that whole thing was handled

honestly that the concern about the FBI

which has now gone beyond concern is

proof that they were working against the

legally elected government

you know that that's just now in

evidence and

I think Trump could make a case

that if he goes with draining the swamp

but nobody's going to listen to that

because he didn't do any draining the

swamp it has to be more specific I'm

going to fire two layers of all of these

organizations I'm just going to replace

all the management that's been there for

more than a year or something like that

anyway I think you could do that you're

the fellowing things that are uh oh and

I would also call it a tourniquet

strategy so imagine if Trump went after

all the corrupt organizations but also

in every rally he went through the

hoaxes that the country has suffered

because of the media right like there's

at least 20 of them that he could

mention he could throw in a new one in

every rally

all right here's my third rally hoax

number three

and there's just speak about the hoax

and then it becomes like a little news

bite and they just hit every hoax

until the news can summarize them I hear

all the hoaxes

that you know Trump has debunked

anyway the January 6 hoax committee I

call them a hoax because

I can't take the January 6 committee

seriously

um there are four things they have

recommended to the Department of Justice

their recommendations have no weight no

standing and no functional purpose

whatsoever because the Department of

Justice is already investigating

everything they care about

like they weren't waiting the Department

of Justice wasn't waiting for this

public information to be packaged up

like it doesn't have any it's just not a

part of any uh justice system process is

literally just for the news so they have

something to talk about and you know

propaganda so here are the four things

the question I want to ask you is

if you know what projection means

where you blame somebody of doing the

exact crime that you're doing

see if this sounds like projection

because the committee did seem like a

bunch of toxic narcissists and there

they project so just ask yourself if the

things that they're saying that Trump

did is there anything in the past few

years that you would say would apply to

the Democrats

for example number one obstruction of an

official proceeding

is there anything that any Democrats

have done in the past several years that

would look like obstruction of an

official proceeding

yes

Lots about conspiracy to defraud the U.S

I don't even know what that refers to

I watched this whole thing and I don't

know what that is what exactly would the

be the conspiracy to defraud something

the election

by by saying the election wasn't fair

according to him

all right have the Democrats ever done a

conspiracy to defraud the U.S

Russia collusion hoax

of course they have yeah the Democrats

run one conspiracy after another to

defraud the U.S it's Non-Stop

how about making a false statement

can you believe that

they want the Department of Justice

to prosecute Trump for making a false

statement

could you be more specific

you know could you be less specific

all the Democrats do is make false

statements yeah that's like shift's

entire job the the laptop you know was

disinformation it's all false statements

how about inciting and insurrection

who do you think incited the

insurrection

well I mean all of these are so

subjective

yeah the the FBI so to me

to me it looks like just projection

that's all I see now of course it'll

work because the the Democrats will

embrace it

now I saw a tweet from Greg price who

says uh the the person who made this

announcement in other words the four

charges against Trump was representative

Jamie Raskin who objected to the

certification of the 2016 election based

on the LIE that Russian that Russia

installed Trump as president

now knowing as you will that Jamie

Raskin is the one who read

the four charges

and knowing that he was personally

involved in

basically this crime

so did when Jamie Raskin objected to the

certification of the 2016 election based

on the LIE that Russia installed Trump

as president was he obstructing an

official proceeding

sort of

with a bunch of was he was it a

conspiracy to defraud the U.S that's

exactly what it was the Russian

collusion thing was a conspiracy Detroit

U.S was he making a false statement yes

and was he inciting an Insurrection he

was literally trying to overthrow the

government

like overtly

he said this government should be

overthrown because it's a Russian

whatever

now

could this be more obvious

you know I I'm somewhat uh Infamous for

saying that I didn't think projection

was necessarily even real I didn't think

it was

honestly but until you see the real

examples of it the it's hard to believe

like if you didn't see example after

example you wouldn't believe it on

concept you know the concept of it is

too ridiculous but there it is

there it is

this could not be a cleaner example than

projection and and the the Democrats are

buying it

all right so today I guess the house

Ways and Means Committee is going to

vote on releasing Trump's tax returns

has that happened yet

as the vote happened

probably not I would have heard about it

so uh what What's the dog not barking

do you hear the biggest dog in the world

not barking

like a really really big dog not barking

they

Congress has his tax returns

they've looked at them

they have nothing to complain about

apparently

apparently there's no crime there

don't you think if there were if there

were anything in the taxes do you think

it would have leaked

that's a you know that's not a real

question of course it would have leaked

a hundred percent chance that's one of

the things you don't have to wonder

about yeah right not one leak about his

taxes do you know what that means

It could only mean one thing there's

only one thing that means

there's nothing there

but what does it mean that they want to

release them

what is the second thing it means

it means that they know

that the press and the public are now

sophisticated at looking at tax returns

and that the president public will

generate unlimited stories of how what

bad problems they found

that are not real

they'll just take stuff out of context

right

so clearly the only reason they want to

release them is to embarrass Trump and

make him less electable

now if they're not claiming that there

are any crimes in there

and so far they're not

if they're not claiming there are any

crimes in there what should be the

response

to Congress releasing them

if there's no claim of impropriety and

they release them and they they take his

uh his uh privacy

well let me give you my opinion

it should be illegal

and it should be the death penalty

now it's not illegal so I'm not

recommending any violence or anything

like that I'm saying that if you were to

rate the the seriousness of it they are

taking down a president right in front

of you or trying to they're trying to

alter the the course of the Republic by

doing something that apparently doesn't

have a legal or

country benefit

and they're doing it right in front of

you and they're not even claiming

there's a crime in there

right in front of you

they're not doing it to Trump they're

doing it to you

because when this this if this standard

Falls

then anybody's taxes or fair game for

anybody

why wouldn't they release mine

they say hey this guy keeps saying

things we don't like let's release his

taxes we'll always stop them

is it because Trump's president and I'm

not

that's not a law is it is there some law

that says presidents have to release

their taxes no it's the opposite there's

no law there's no law so if they do it

anyway it was he's just a citizen whose

taxes got released because they thought

it was

what politically useful

of interest to the public

is that good enough

the public would be interested so I

guess they could show the public my tax

returns too right because the public

would be interested wouldn't they they

say oh he talks about politics I'd like

to see his taxes where does that stop

now I don't believe in the slippery

slope you know predicting everything

because it doesn't

but in terms of how bad this is

you know again without any specific

claim of illegality this is this is a 10

out of 10.

you're you're watching them

you know let's say digitally crucify

somebody just so he won't run for

president

that's all it is

and we're we're sitting here accepting

that like well I guess

they get I guess they followed the rules

unfucking believable

yeah and what about the whole revelation

of the the Twitter files so uh Michael

schellenberger did another you know

great Twitter thread yesterday and at

this point is very clear all the

evidence suggests that Jim Baker is the

key figure who went from you know top

legal position at the FBI to Twitter and

it's obvious that Twitter was trying to

control

um trying to they did a good job of of

influencing Twitter

they were even paying Twitter three

million dollars for Twitter answering

their questions now that that's not like

a big profit Center so I don't think

Twitter was

influenced by the money

like everybody's influenced by money but

that was actually a small amount and it

kind of just covered their expenses so I

don't think that was the motivation

it's it's truth they got money but I

don't think that it was too small to

motivate them

um

now we know at this point

that

the FBI was totally corrupt I'm going to

use corrupt in an expansive sense not

necessarily legal sense because I don't

know if they violate any laws but what

they did was a

a form of corruption

that as Jordan Peterson tweeted I think

yesterday is way worse than Watergate

and you hate to say that right

because it's such a punch line it's

worse than Oregon the walls are closed

in but it would be hard to argue this

one

it would be hard to debate

you know what we know for sure like the

things that are not in question at all

just the things we know for sure are way

worse than Watergate

it's not even in the same planet

am I wrong

well it's way worse

and what will what will happen from all

of it probably nothing

probably nobody will be punished

for anything

is my guess

um

all right

so

the former FBI general counsel

I think this was a was this Greenwald or

sheldberg who said this

now do you think it's a total lie

that Baker

believed it was still a question about

whether the laptop was real or not

because Baker was saying well you know

we can't tell for sure

whether the laptop is real

so I'm not saying it's not real but we

can't tell for sure

is that a lie

is it

is a lie that he couldn't tell for sure

how would he know

because at that point the FBI had not

validated it only the New York Post had

so as far as he knew

although it was

it could have been validated like the

the assets and the time to do it were

there

but they had not been

is that a lie

well I'd say it's a lawyer lie

it's a legal lie

like if you said do you really believe

that it hasn't been validated

I think he could get away with it in

court and say yes the only evidence I am

aware of was the New York Post I don't

consider them credible for whatever

reason and the FBI said they had not

verified it so what am I supposed to say

if the FBI says they don't know

what am I supposed to say

right so he does have a defense

I'm not sure I would call it a lie

but the odds that he knew exactly what

he was doing

seemed very high

can we agree can we agree that the the

odds that he knew exactly what he was

doing are very high

very very high

but he has a defense

um

and now we know that the Department of

Justice

was reading the emails of Devin Nunes

and cash Patel

what

during the actual

period of Devin Nunes trying to get to

the bottom of the Russia collusion hoax

the Department of Justice found a clever

excuse

to read his emails and cash

Patel on baby some other staffers

oh

my God

am I surprised now of course

but oh

my God

you could take any one of these stories

and this is worse than Watergate where

we're at like five times worse than

Watergate

five different ways

it's it's almost too much to even

and this is what I worry about if there

had been one like clean little scandal

than the you know the Republicans would

pounce on it and the media would have to

talk about it and maybe like something

would happen like Watergate Watergate

was pretty much one little story of the

break-in

and it was like a clean little story but

there is so much bad going on at the

same time that we're finding out about

so so much corruption that I wouldn't

know where to even focus

like I'm actually the was it the uh the

ooda loop what's that called the Udu

Loop

I'm saying it wrong

Cuda UDA the UDA Loop so basically if

you just keep

um being pushed by the new information

you can never deal with the information

that you had before in other words new

information is just pushing you forward

and you're like hey what about that

other thing uh okay on to the new thing

so as long as you just keep getting

pushed

by the new headlines you can't really

deal with

any of the individual Badness it's just

too big and too spread out and too

complicated

I think they get away with everything

that's what I think I think they will

get away with everything because they

know how to do it they know how to just

just make the the environment impossible

to to come after them

um all right here's another Scandal like

I I don't forget if I mentioned this I

think I did that the Biden

Administration said they created a

million jobs

right before the election

it was just a complete lie the real

number what rounds to zero

the difference between you know ten

thousand I think and a million

just a clear obvious clean lie do you

think it would have affected the

election to know that the jobs president

as he would like to call himself created

you know basically no jobs

unbelievable

unbelievable and I'm trying to think

what is anything that the Trump

Administration ever did that would be in

this class of Badness

like there's plenty of stuff you didn't

like

right there are things you didn't like

that Trump did but do they do anything

like this that just like is like obvious

corruption

well you know we'll never agree on on

the vaccination thing

but you have to you have to judge Trump

by what he knew at the time

so that's going to be tough because our

brains don't work that way you know

we're going to judge by what we know now

we're not going to judge him by what he

knew and what everybody knew at the time

that we simply don't have the ability to

do it like I love that we were smart

enough and wise enough and you know

mature enough to say well

he acted on what he knew at the time no

we're not as you as you can see the

comments we're definitely not

all right

um

so

here's what reality is done there are

two realities about the coveted shots

in one reality

um they were a huge success

but there's some question about whether

they make sense for younger people

especially men

so that's one movie

that maybe I don't know half of the

country has

I'm not saying what's true and what's

false I'm just saying what what their

reality is so the reality is that the

shots were a huge success they're glad

they got them saved millions of lives

but maybe but maybe because of Omicron

we should rethink younger people and

especially younger males

in the other movie

uh the shots were simply more harm than

good and that that has been so well

demonstrated that that's just true

that we already know without having to

wait any further we don't have to wait

for the future we already know

what the future looks like

and that we already know that there will

be more harm in the future than benefit

from the vaccinations now again I'm not

saying what's true or false I'm saying

that these two realities live completely

and and they're opposites right they

can't both be true

now would you agree that's that's our

current situation again not don't tell

me what's true or what's false is that

our current situation that we have two

realities

okay here's what here's what I'm going

to add to this it will never be resolved

do you know why

why will it never be resolved

into one reality

because that's not how anything works

here's why

as long as those two realities can

operate

they will as long as they can they will

and there's nothing that's going to

happen that will make them have to merge

now you say to yourself but Scott what

about that the new data that will come

in later

to which I say who's going to believe

data

you don't believe the data you had

why would you believe the new data so if

you can't prove it with science and data

because we just won't believe them

how would ever be resolved

now one way would be yes

one side predicts well and the other

doesn't

that that's a good sign of who's right

right if one with one world view

predicts and it just keeps getting the

predictions right well maybe that's the

good one right but what will the two

World Views predict

one world view will predict

that the vaccinations worked and there

won't be much trouble from the

vaccinations the other one says that

there'll be Mass problems from the

vaccinations and then which prediction

will be correct whose prediction will be

correct the mass problems or the hey it

worked out fine

in the future who will be predicted you

won't know both right they will both be

completely supported by the data

they can't both be true

can't both be true but they will be

completely supported by data that the

side that wants to believe it accepts

we're

now here's the interesting part is this

different

than the way it has always been for

other topics

do we always do we always Retreat into

two different worlds and we just live in

them and it never matters we just

forever are in

because remember we've been in the um

the the anti-vaccination

Two Worlds for a long time way before

covid

we already had two movies that lived

permanently and they were opposites

that the childhood vaccinations were bad

versus the childhood vaccinations were

unambiguously good and they lived they

lived completely as two realities

all right here's my take

neither of those realities are true

do you know why I say that

because none of the realities are true

everything you see is sort of like a

user interface for something you don't

understand

so when you use your computer

and you're you're you're punching an

icon

you see the icon but that's not what the

computer is the computer is zeros and

ones organized in ways you don't see and

don't understand right you're you're at

the user interface level that's a user

interface level you don't know if what's

behind it is uh Unix or Mac OS or

some windows thing right

if all you see is a screen because yeah

you can make a you can make a browser

look like anything

so I don't believe in a objective

reality

that we have access to there might be an

adjusted reality but I believe that

whether vaccine vaccinations work or

don't work is not a base reality

then neither of those are base reality

their base reality is just something you

don't understand

but as long as you can live a world

where internally everything is

consistent if you're in the world where

vaccinations are good or the world where

they're bad as long as you can live your

life and reproduce

that's all you need

it's all you need but neither of you are

right

you're you're just at the user interface

level so here's what you're arguing

you'll hear two buttons on the screen

you're saying No this is the button to

do the thing and the other person said

no this is the button to do the things

but you're only talking about buttons

you're not talking about anything in

base reality because we don't have

access to it

uh

time lapse charts here what's the truth

I want the truth you're never going to

get it a reality has forked

so I asked uh on Twitter I did a poll

and I said did you fall for the mass

Hysteria

generated by trolls that said I

personally was pro-vaccine and pro mask

and I'm going to give you a little test

of uh to see how good you are

predicting

roughly what percentage of the public

who answered the poll believed the met

the mass hysteria that I was pro-vaccine

and pro mask

very good very good guesses yeah about a

quarter

yeah roughly roughly 25 but about a

quarter yeah didn't see that coming

total surprise

when I when I ran the poll I could never

have anticipated that result

if you knew the live stream none of this

makes sense

but trust me

it's a very funny inside joke

all right

somebody called me a fence sitter on uh

vaccinations

the FED sitter

isn't that

very similar to somebody who's waiting

for enough information to have a good

decision

yeah could you be a is it bad to be a

fence sitter when the information is

nodded

what would be the smarter way to go

huh we don't really know what the future

holds therefore I'll be positive

if you're positive that you can

determine the future

I don't think the problem's on my end

I will defend my inability to discern

the future but you need to defend your

ability to discern the future because I

don't have that

so Kerry Lake's lawsuits I guess two of

her ten claims are going to go forward

one of them involving the printers

malfunctioning on Election Day and the

other involving the chain of custody for

some of the ballots

but do you have any hope that that will

change anything

I feel like all of these complaints of

corruption

they they get

slathered on the bureaucracy

and then the bureaucracy just squirms

around for a while and then nothing

happens

like I feel like

uh the court is where everything goes to

die

well if you want nothing happened take

it to court

you'll get a you'll get a nothing there

so I don't think anything's going to

happen from these

like I'm glad she's pressing the case

because wouldn't you like to know more

of course you would I'd like to know

more about this situation if a lawsuit's

the only way we can get to the you know

the next level of understanding then I'm

all for it but I wouldn't I wouldn't be

optimistic

not at all

right ladies and gentlemen

I believe we've covered

all the news it's fit to sip

that's my new that's that should be my

new tagline

all the News That's fit to sip and I

think that we need another sip

because

as this 2022 comes to a close

I feel like we're going to have to spend

some days on some uh

let's say aggressive positivity

what do you think I think I'm going to

start bending my presentation toward

gratitude

uh just so we could get a little dose of

dose of Christmas spirit

a little bit of uh appreciating each

other Maybe

a little less of the bad

and uh so I will be complimenting people

that

maybe I've disagreed with because I

think that's good practice

um I will uh be telling all of you how

much I appreciate you

now well let me do that now I mean I'm

sure I've done it before but you can't

get enough of it can you

um I think you kept me alive

like I think you just kept me alive

because I had some you know tough

medical stuff to go through this year

you know on top of personal stuff

um but oh my God I can't imagine going

through this year without this

experience

so being connected to you in this in

this way

um

is my fuel right

and

it also gives me something to look

forward to

when when I wake up in the morning

the first thing I think is oh boy I get

to do this

I don't know I'm not sure how other

podcasts feel about what they do

does Joe Rogan think it's work

or does he just still love it I hope he

loves it but I don't think of this as

work

like it doesn't feel even a little bit

workish and I put more energy into this

than anything else I do and none of it

feels like work and it's because because

of the interaction it's because there's

it feels like something important

it feels valuable it feels like it's

helping and and that's sort of connects

me to that connects me to my most basic

uh if you want to say evolutionary

my basic biological need is to be useful

and yeah I wish I could turn it off

if I could turn it off and not not need

to be useful I could I could have a

pretty good life just go spend my money

and said the beach or something I don't

I hear people like that but that's not

for me

like I just have to be useful or my day

doesn't work so that's why I do this

and it's fun

um

yeah and I do feel like I do feel like

we've formed some kind of mutual

responsibility accidentally I mean

certainly voluntary you know nobody's

making you do anything but

um I feel like at least based on the

comments people say that I've I've

helped some people this year

and wow if you help me you have helped

me so much I can't even can't even tell

you and let me tell you what that does

let me tell you what that does so as you

know I just finished a book that won't

be out until September but

um that book was written primarily for

you

meaning that you know my interaction

like surfaced that the reframes where I

reframe a topic so you just feel better

about it or it could be more effective

that that really made a difference

and so I put put a bunch of them in a

book and

um am I dying no I'm not dying uh I put

him put a bunch of them in a book and

mostly because I thought you would like

it like it in the sunset it'll be useful

so

all right

um

you know it's also weird

I feel myself getting healthier and

stronger every day

and that's not supposed to happen at my

age right

like I don't think it's true necessarily

but like I have a great feeling of

things improving

yeah well we love you too

um some of you are praying for me I

appreciate that

Mike malice recommends self-publishing

yeah it depends where you are in the

publishing World

um if you're an established writer

it probably makes sense to use a

publisher

if you're

successful but maybe not a household

name yet maybe that's different

better all the time that's right

well thank you you're saying nice things

uh yeah I'm not taking any blood

pressure meds

you know I have such basic questions

about science now

I I'm not even sure that high blood

pressure is bad for me

now please don't take any medical

advice for me don't take any medical

advice for me here I just have this open

question

I've always believed that I run hot

meaning that when I sleep when I wake up

I'm like covered with sweat right

and

I just feel I run hot like I'm just

overclocked I'm not sure that high blood

pressure for me specifically

predicts

now that could be the dumbest thing

anybody ever said and I'd be open to I'd

be open to correction right if Dr Drew

tells me tomorrow

Scott's got the the science is

unambiguous you know above some level

you're definitely in trouble now if I

hear that I will modify my opinion

but I don't trust any of the data

anymore like none of it

and

I feel as if uh if I do everything else

right

it's right like I'm not drinking I'm not

smoking tobacco uh you know my diet is

pretty clean if I'm doing everything

else right

is running a little high on uh on blood

pressure gonna give me a stroke

like can anybody know that

because I feel like they don't study me

am I right

like they didn't study me

any study they do is going to be like a

big group of people isn't it

am I right

now I realize this is uh

yeah it's absurd for somebody with like

me with no medical training whatsoever

to make that kind of a statement so

again do not make any medical changes

based on anything you hear from me right

you could take your vitamin D I feel you

know I feel if I tell you to you know

lose weight and exercise amongst you

know

safe ground

but when it comes to what meds you take

do not listen to me all right I'm just

saying I don't I don't believe the

entire

structure and then when I look at the

trade-off

like if the only way I could lower my

blood pressure if it makes a difference

is the only way I could do it was with

these meds that totally destroyed my

quality of life now I don't know maybe

there's some other bed that doesn't who

knows but I doubt it

I kind of doubt that lowering my blood

pressure no matter what drug I use

I doubt that's good for me

I could be wrong

I'm totally open to being wrong

somebody says is narcissistic is it

is it narcissistic to say I don't trust

Medical Science within the context of

knowing it's been lying to us

it's not like it's not like I'm guessing

that sometimes they give us bad

information

I mean that's the most established fact

you could ever establish

uh

oh here's one Jillian says Really Scott

regulations would allow houses to be

built 150 times faster

I can't tell if you're joking you're not

you're not imagining that I think that

right

uh

all right

he's joking

Maybe

he had doctors incurring smoking at one

time right

Ashley says when will I release my full

power and save the country

does the country need save it

I don't know I think the country's doing

okay

you know you'd have to be more specific

what is it I'm saving

or let me ask you this

what is it that I'm that I've been uh

persuading that you don't think is going

to go my way

so you see me persuading on Tick Tock do

you think I'm not going to get my way

oh that's going to get banned it's going

to take way longer than I wanted to but

tick tocks could get banned

ESG already dead man walking right

Fentanyl

you don't think we're going to attack

the the cartels

I mean nothing happens instantly but you

don't think that's going to happen of

course we are

yeah of course we are

what is it that you want me to persuade

that's not going to happen anyway

I mean I I can push things I think I

think there's a good chance

that a Republican president whoever it

is is just gonna

fire everybody at the top of all those

organizations

DeSantis would

wouldn't it

it you know I think it's somewhat

unlikely but if DeSantis became the

candidate

I think he could tell you he was going

to fire everybody in those jobs and

you'd believe it he probably would

uh anti-inflammation

uh oh pronouns

so

here's how you should deal with the

pronouns part

Obama gave you the formula

and because you don't like Obama you

won't take his advice right

Obama basically says yes find to is fine

to ask us to use your pronouns

but don't get mad if we don't

I mean I'm that's a little bit of an

oversimplification that's pretty close

right he's basically saying it's fine to

ask for it

but don't get mad at us if we get that

wrong

that is exactly the right take

you should say you can ask for anything

you want

and I'll ask you the same I'll ask you

not to be concerned if I use it wrong

and they demand right and then you

demand

but you should allow their demand

because they have a right to demand

you don't have to do it

you have a right to demand that they not

care

see the The High Ground

The High Ground is

is what Obama found Obama found The High

Ground on us The High Ground is yeah you

could ask for anything you want it's a

free country

good go ahead and ask and then when we

get it wrong

get over it

just get over it

it's not that important

I think that was exactly the right take

yeah if you fight it you just look like

you're a bigot

right if you tell them don't criticize

me if I if I get some words wrong then

you've turned them into the bigot

you get that

the way you're playing it you turn

yourself into the bigot because that's

just the way they can frame you

the way Obama suggests you play it is to

turn those people into the bigot if they

have a problem with you because you

didn't have a problem with them

right if they want to ask go ahead

I don't have a problem with anybody

asking me for anything

but they should also not have a problem

with you You're simply asking them not

to be bigots I'm not a bigot

you can do what you like

but I would like to say in consideration

that's all that is the way to go

that is the way to go

I saw the following argument from Pierce

Morgan

who I believe is a illogical argument

okay he was talking with some pro-trans

person I think

um and

uh he was no that wasn't protrans it was

pro-identification so somebody who was

arguing that you know there are lots of

genders and people should be able to

identify with whatever gender

they like and

then Pierce had apparently tried to

identify as a

two-sold penguin

a two-souled penguin and then they said

hey that's no fair you can't identify as

a penguin and that pierce said why not

if everything's if everything's

in the conversation

why can't I identify as a penguin

and the answer is

that's not logical

no

you don't see a difference there

you don't see a difference

you're talking about people who actually

believe

that they you know their identification

versus someone who doesn't

seem the same to you

now certainly the rules have to be the

same like the law has to be the same so

if the rules are you can identify as

anything to get benefits then Pierce is

right

if identifying as a penguin would get

you a college degree absolutely

I I encourage you to identify as

Penguins if you can get money for doing

it of course I'm on your side be a

penguin if if it pays

but I don't think that's the same

situation

I do believe that you know you could you

can characterize it as you know mental

defect if you want that's that's not my

position

but

would you disagree that the people with

these identifications is because they're

actually trying to identify themselves

in a way they're comfortable with that

makes sense that's completely different

than Piers Morgan being a penguin you

that's such a bad argument for Pierce

and I'm surprised that he wasn't called

out for it because while I think you

know the identifying is stuff yeah it

probably went too far

but uh that's not the argument against

it

it's a learned ideology

does that change anything that doesn't

change my point

so I think that I think the uh the push

back here is that people are not

necessarily born feeling these

confusions or identifications they may

they may be encouraged into it by the

way their their uh socialized

and that's true but that doesn't change

my point it doesn't matter how you got

there

right if you got there because somebody

influenced you or you got there because

you're genetically there you're still

there

that's what you feel and in a free

country

should you should you be able to feel

like somebody else's gender

and then ask people to treat you that

way sure

sure you could ask but again you're

asking does not obligate me

by asking is fine

I'd like to know what you think

I mean if nothing else it tells me what

you're thinking I like that

so I'll tell you what I'm thinking I

mean no harm

sometimes I'll get the pronouns wrong

sometimes I just won't accept that

that's the right thing to say

but I'm not going to take any criticism

about it

because I'm going to let you live your

life you're going to do the same for me

whether you like it or not

uh it's all clownish and embarrassing

behavior that makes Society look stupid

is that important

I I see your point

like I can see why you would see it that

way

but is that important

is it

because it's not a society it's just

individuals isn't it

dude do you think it makes like

America look bad

maybe to some people

yeah

but has America looked bad every time it

moved toward greater

uh greater acceptance of people did

America look bad when it gave women the

vote

probably to a lot of countries did it

looked bad when it freed the slaves

probably to some countries

so I'm not sure we should be running

Things based on what looks bad to

countries we wouldn't want to be

oh we we'd hate for Saudi Arabia to have

a bad opinion of us so we better

be Muslims

yeah other countries opinions of us

have to be put in a little little box

yeah we make fun of Trudeau all day long

doesn't matter to him probably not

uh let's see lb LGB acknowledges sex

transition

don't know what the point is

uh did I see Tim cast last night I did

not was there something on timcast

that you wanted to call him

uh watch Bannon on Tim pool last night

it was uh legendary what was legendary

about it

um

oh yeah yeah it's funny Tucker Carlson

is saying a couple things on television

that looks like it's amazing that

there's not more pushback so

he flat out says F you to the Deep state

are you abandoned us

yeah

okay

uh Bannon wore a penguin suit no he

didn't

um

what can we do about no accountability

how can we accept that government

accountability

well

um

you know the the changes that Twitter

might be a big part of it and maybe some

of the changes that CNN will be a big

part of it

um

[Music]

so I do think that ultimately the public

can turn the battleship it's just not

fast

turds talk

all right so uh the other thing that so

Tucker Carlson was saying that uh he

knows for sure now from his own source

that he doesn't tell us that the CIA was

involved in Killing Kennedy

so basically

Tucker Carlson

tells you that as a newly discovered

fact because he's got a source but we

don't know who the source is so keep

that in mind

now the other thing he said he just like

dropped it in when he was talking to a

guest he said that he knows that members

of Congress are being blackmailed

and he said it like he totally convinced

me that he knows members of Congress are

being blackmailed

Now by who I don't know but blackmailed

the FBI says Tucker is lying of course

they do

uh

right

Jillian says in all caps wish Scott

would admit he pushed mandates and

vaccines Etc now Jillian are you uh a

troll who's just here

like to make trouble are you actually a

stupid

because that would be the most stupid

thing ever anybody ever said on

this live stream like are you actually

that ignorant and Confused

well it doesn't matter we'll we'll hide

you on this channel you're heading now

Jillian goodbye

uh

uh yeah who isn't

yeah yeah

you're right saying that the CIA was

involved

is a very generic word

so it could be that the CIA is

involved in everything you don't like

but not necessarily in a way that is

illegal or unethical

Scott critically argues both sides well

I show the costs and the benefits it's

amazing how many people

believe that you should not consider the

costs and the benefits of decisions like

actually believe that

um we think everybody's a low-level CIA

you know I was watching uh Glenn

grindwald tweeting this morning and he

brings up AOC for her non

let's say non-criticizing of the CIA

and he's wondering why AOC is not

criticizing the CIA

what does that suggest

why is he calling around by name

what does that suggest

I feel

like you suggesting AOC as a CIA uh

concoction

what do you think

is AOC

uh a CIA asset

do you think that they created her like

is she a creation because she's a media

creation right and who controls the

media

the CIA

so if somebody is a media creation for

the the Democrats like a like a

superstar has been created artificially

who did that

do you think CNN talk to MSNBC and they

talk to ABC they said hey let's get

together and push this on our own

maybe do you think they all just thought

the same and that's why it looks like

they coordinated maybe maybe the public

was interested so they just followed the

Public's interest maybe but when was the

last time Glenn Greenwald was wrong

about whose Court coordinating with the

CIA

so far not wrong

so far not wrong

now he doesn't come out and say it

but the context doesn't leave much doubt

and it doesn't seem let me ask you this

does it seem believable

does it seem believable the AOC would be

a CIA

preferred candidate or they helped her

somehow yeah totally yeah that that

would be easily within the ordinary line

of business there wouldn't be nothing

even unordinated about that that would

be just typical business sure

and if they're not

if they're not trying to influence her

why not should be the obvious one you

would try to influence because she has

influence you're not going to influence

people who have no influence so yeah

do you think she's ever met with any

agents for the CIA

think they've ever had lunch

I think I think anybody associated with

the CIA is a restaurant lunch

it's Washington of course they have

um

am I the CIA somebody else

foreign

I don't know

I don't know

is that a scary answer

it's an honest answer I don't know

yeah I can tell you for sure

that the CIA or people associated with

it have tried to influence me

but I'm not aware of anybody on the CIA

payroll

who has ever tried to influence me

but don't you think they would

if they're not trying to influence me

what the hell are they doing

because anybody who works for the CI can

see I can move the needle and they I

mean it wouldn't take long to figure

that out

so

if they're not trying to influence me

directly or indirectly they're not

they're not trying hard enough now how

would they do it

do you know

if they were trying to influence me and

let's say it was happening right now and

I was not aware of how would it happen

how would it happen

bribe me no if I were not aware of it if

they were influencing me without my

awareness how would it happen

they would send a fake friend

fake friend that's how they do it yeah

you suddenly you would be befriended by

somebody who's a little too anxious to

be your friend

that's how they do it

so has that happened to me

has anybody been a little too anxious to

be my friend and I couldn't figure out

why

yes

yes they have

yes they have

but do I know that that's part of an OP

I don't

no way to know

yeah

but I assume that the CIA would be

trying to influence everybody who is

themselves influential wouldn't you say

don't you think anybody who's who could

move the needle they're looking at and

trying to maybe get a get a get a friend

inserted there you know what I mean

friend of the agency get a little close

to you find out what's going on maybe

put a little something in your ear

what's the CIS is aim to control The

Narrative of course now not to a

specific end necessarily

but always to control it

because sort of their job

um

trolls are used and the trolls would be

doing what trying to discourage me from

saying some things

did you also see the story about the

Twitter files that the FBI kept looking

for all the foreign interference in the

elections and Twitter kept saying you

know we're not seeing much

and the FBI was like no we're all

confused we know there's got to be a lot

of foreign influence there and Twitter

kept saying Yeah you know

we looked it doesn't look like there's

much

and they just were not happy with that

does the CIA have good or bad goals it's

probably a mix because there are

individuals in the CIA as well as what

the CIA itself wants and then they're

probably departments within the CIA who

want different things than other

departments it's probably never clear I

mean it's it's entirely possible that

some people have the the CIA helping

them at the same time the CIA a

different person is trying to destroy

them

like that wouldn't surprise me it's

probably

it's probably common

uh will America self-correct the

corruption

yes but then it always gets replaced

with new corruption

so I don't know

huh

somebody's father was in the CIA in his

cover position was in the Department of

Agriculture

okay all right I think that's all I have

to for now YouTube I'm gonna go do

something else and I will talk to you

YouTube and Spotify and Rumble tomorrow

bye
