double check that gun? Like nobody's going to learn anything if he goes to jail. There's no learning that will happen. So and his ideology is going to be like reformed so if he makes another movie he won't make that same mistake again. There's just nothing. There's just no benefit. Now if you say that the family of the deceased should sue him and get a bunch of money I think that already happened…

make a completely different switch. My argument, yeah your head's going to spin here. He was also the head of the production. As the head of the production it looks like he really effed up. It looks like he just didn't do the job of a boss to make sure the right people were in place and the right processes. That's harder to defend, right? The asking a non-gun owner actor in the context of a fictional movie to do all the right things. Yeah so that's a big ask. But asking a boss to make sure he hired the right people to take care of safety when there were all kinds of safety complaints, that one's hard to defend. So I think he's in trouble but we're gonna have some surprises. I know we'll have some surprises. Apparently there were more live bullets in his gun belt. I saw that in a Timcast tweet.

All right, apparently we know why the airline failure happened. The FAA said some contractor unintentionally deleted some files that some antiquated system needed to operate and it was hard to recover the files. Now the obvious is why do we have a system that's that weak? That's like the weakest system I've ever seen. Apparently it's really old. It's like from the generation of the Walkman. I saw somebody in Wall Street Journal say so. Boy somebody was not doing their job there but there's not much to say about that.

I saw a video at the World Economic Forum in which FBI director Christopher Wray was talking and user Alx on Twitter tweeted this is what Wray actually said. Now it's a little out of context but my point will be that he shouldn't be there in any capacity so even in context it's all wrong. But this is probably a little bit out of context but here's what he says. The level of collaboration between the private sector and the government, especially the FBI, has made significant strides. Yes it has. Yes as a matter of fact it has. The scariest thing you've ever heard. Why are we sending a representative of the United States to embarrass us in front of the world? What? Like why is that okay? Like why does he still have a job? Like everything about that is just creepy and wrong. It was probably out of context and you know I'm sure the context would have not sounded as scary. So this is something the WEF does is they do things which certainly sounds scary. You know who knows what they actually intend to do.

So here's what I'm trying to understand about the World Economic Forum. Is it a useless Dilbert entity where a bunch of people get together and say a bunch of jargon and have a nice holiday and go home? How many people think that's what's happening and that they don't really have any impact on anything? Like everything would have happened on its own. They just talk about it and take credit and pat each other on the back. Oh I'm saying yeses and those but I think it's at least partly that. Wouldn't you agree? No matter what else it is it's partly just a bunch of jargon spewing, woke signaling people having a nice vacation. It would be easy to overestimate how much power they have but it would be easy to underestimate it too because there might be some circles, some areas where they do influence.

Now I saw on Tucker Carlson's show the claim that the WEF was behind Sri Lanka's destroyed economy because Sri Lanka didn't use proper fertilizer because it was sort of pooh-pooed by the WEF in some way. Is that true? Let me say that without even

looking into it. It doesn't sound true. Doesn't sound true. Yeah so let me say that. I'll go look that up. I was going to do that before I get on but I want to comment before researching it. It doesn't sound true. It sounds like it's true-ish. It has the ring to it of something that sounds true but if you looked into it there'd be a little something there. Well let me understand this. The WEF can…
