Back to episode — Episode 1147 Scott Adams - I Tell You How Fear Persuasion and Fake News Will Determine the Election

t else we got going on here. The stimulus is off. And this is another example of how the fake news can overthrow a government. The accurate news would be like this. Nancy Pelosi put a bunch of things in the stimulus bill that anybody would have known would make it impossible for Republicans to pass it. Anybody would know that. So it's quite obvious that Nancy Pelosi knew that that bill was impossi…

Here is the strangest simulation thing. As you know, Kellyanne Conway has been tested positive as well as her daughter. So both Kellyanne and her daughter have the coronavirus. I was googling this morning to try to determine if George Conway has tested positive for coronavirus. You would think that if two family members have tested positive, his odds are pretty high. Now this opens up the following completely possible scenario. You've seen George Conway, right? He doesn't look, let's, how do I, I don't like to fat shame but it's important in the story so I'm not going to fat shame him. I'm just going to say he's got an obvious comorbidity. Would you agree? And far more, I think if I can remember what he looked like, far more than Trump. And there is a non-zero chance that Trump through the coronavirus will take out his biggest critic. And that would be first of all tragic. I'm not hoping that that happens. I'm not a George Conway fan, but we don't hope illness on anybody. We don't wish for any violence or any kind of bad outcomes for anybody. I hope you don't either. But in terms of the simulation, this is really possible. Now it's entirely possible that Trump's number one critic could be susceptible to this. And if it turned out that that happened, I don't know what I would think about reality after that. It would just be so mind-bogglingly looking like a movie script. I just wouldn't know what to think of it.
Here's another one like that. I saw a chart of various countries' opinions of China. And if you look at the various countries and what they thought of China over the years, it's up and down. But about 2018 the dislike of China just went through the roof. So every country in the world just had a big change around 2018. Boom. Now here's the simulation part of that. Okay, and I know from experience that at least a third of you are going to misinterpret what I say next. So I'll just let that happen because I can't help it. I can only say this as clearly as I can, knowing that a third of you will permanently misinterpret it. Goes like this. In 2018 my stepson died of a fentanyl ove

rdose. Fentanyl of course comes from China and they do it intentionally to hurt the United States. At that time I declared that China was my mortal enemy and I was going to take them down or certainly try as hard as I could. So exactly the time that I publicly announced I was going to take down China and destroy their reputation, first their reputation just fell off a cliff and all over the world…
