you are making it. Are you guys all surviving your complete lack of democracy? Oh man. Let's talk about some news. Let's call this backwards science. Backwards science. According to Medical Express News, in a study at the University of Sheffield, Shan Bonn is writing there's this video game called Counter-Strike. I've never heard of it, but apparently it's a very popular video game. It's a first-…

And so here's what I discovered. People do more of what they like and what they're good at. And the thing that makes you like something is being extra good at it. Nobody likes to lose. If you sat me down in front of this shooter game and I knew in five minutes that I would never really be good at it because I didn't have fast reactions, I wouldn't play again. It would bore me to be like, oh well, lost again, oh lost again. But if I sat down and right away I said, oh, I feel like I can be good at this, then I would play it a lot until I found out I wasn't good at it perhaps.
So I think the science is backwards here. I think the people who just naturally have fast decision-making and execution are drawn to video games. What do you think? Which way do you think it works? I will use my telepathy to hear your response. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Yeah, you're right.
Well, yesterday I did a little post. It was based on an encounter I had with an individual who saw me walking by and flagged me down and wanted to talk about politics. I may have mentioned this to some of you. And here's the post I wrote after that encounter. Now the reason I'm reading it to you is that in one day it has garnered 24 million views. It's going up something like a million views an hour. Now for reference, a typical post of mine might get 70,000 views. 24 million doesn't happen unless, you know, Elon Musk reposts it, which he didn't. So I couldn't find any big accounts that reposted it. It looks like this just has some kind of a nerve with people that they all understood it. And that's the point I'm going to go for.
So here's what I posted yesterday that got 24 million views so far. I said, I just met someone. Today I learned that being a Democrat requires talking over anyone who knows what is real. I just met someone who is sure Hunter's laptop is fake, Trump was never shot in the ear, and there is no evidence Hunter was running a criminal operation. I didn't make a dent.
Now why would 24 million people agree with that? Because you think, well that's just that one person, right? It's just one person who talked over me. No, it's because every one of you had the same experience multiple times. As soon as you start a conversation about Trump, you get really angry, loud yelling over whatever you're saying.
So here's an example. There's no way he got shot in the ear. And I'd say, well actually I know somebody personally who saw him soon after the event and he actually took the bandage off and showed the hole in his ear. And he said, no it didn't happen. I go, no, w

hat I'm saying is somebody I know very well personally told me that Trump showed him his ear and that there was a hole in it. Ah, but where'd all the bullets go? If there were really bullets, where'd all the other bullets go? And I said, well one of them went into the body of a guy who died. Ah, then changed the topic. But not once did he think, oh maybe I got that wrong. So yeah, and he thought…
