Everybody welcome to another day of coffee was got items which, yes, that's right, the best hour of the day
sometimes even when it is not an hour. Sometimes
I'll, be done in thirty five minutes and it still
ass the hour of the day. How do I do that just like magic, but if you like to take it up level and you do right, don't you will take it up a little odd that peace today by Jason, Riley in the world
the Wall Street Journal. Somebody says I should check that art, but before we do that, all you need is a couple of my work as a director general society, candy jog, our flask, a vessel of any kind accept because they have holes and fill it with your favorite liquid. Like coffee join me now the unparalleled pleasure, the dope Amelia the day, the thing that makes
Everything better, it's called the simultaneous have an app is now go.
I'm going to give you now because I love you also much.
I'm gonna give you one of the most useful tips you ve ever had in your whole life,
If that sounds like an exaggeration, well wait till the earth. This might change. Everything does
For me, this is one of those I guess refer
aims or different ways of looking at the world.
The four me once I saw it. I never once I can never and see it, and now everything is filtered through this
you're not gonna, give you the shelter
like most of these tips. They don't work on everybody all the time
for some percentage of you watching this right now. This is gonna blow your frame of mind, but it won't happen,
now the mind Lloyd happens later
It wants the sort of thing said, and I built up enough here- comes keep track
of your good days versus
You're bad days, you other days, you're, happiest versus invasion, not and then track the following things.
And ask yourself which of these happened in the last twenty four hours. Did you get good exercise just track? Your mood,
Within twenty four hours of exercising, especially the same day, if you exercise in the morning, probably such a pretty good.
So track your exercise tracking,
did you learn something useful? Did you learn something watch how
on a day when you learn something useful you're having a good day.
how about internet relations? Did you have some internet relations with your loved ones or somebody else? I suppose.
They watch how often you are in a good mood that day and maybe a little bit the next day as well
about food and sleep, did you eat healthy food or did eat a bunch of crap check your mood, your mood, not your mewed.
Check your mood after you have eaten well that day or the prior day, then look at your sleep. Did you get enough
If you track adjust these five things.
You're going to learn something about yourself that will blow your head off.
Which is that your moods are almost
entirely created by these five thanks.
now? Some of you might want to add a category right. There might be something you do that totally changes your day.
For example, my wife, if she goes flying like like yesterday and today,
She gets so much joy about being in there. That makes her old dame good for about twenty four hours.
So find out those five or six things which the o influence your life then just
and you're gonna find that your good days, though, you think about.
What's happening to you today, not much relevance.
It's mostly these five things to do exercise. Did you learn something? Did you have some close
personal relationship. Those meaningful did he right and then you get enough sleep just do those things.
Somebody saying in the comments did you accomplish something significant now,
We all know that makes a good day if you accomplish something significant
but I think is necessary because
You have learned something you feel like you're on the system right, you feel like you're moving somewhere.
and if your body and everything else are good and you ve got a good relationship and you ve actually
as their relationship. You know what I mean
once you learn that these things are controlling your thoughts
you'll realize that your thoughts and you're your experience are just one unit.
You tend to think of your brain as this physical thing. That's over here doing this thing and then there's your environment as off. Doing this thing.
Ensure that environment influences your brain
But think about those just one, big brain and if you're sleeping, thus good for your brain exercise,
that's your most useful tool for the day, something like ten to twenty percent of you just experienced the beginning of a substantial improvement in the life like really big about twenty percent of the rest of you. Maybe.
There was a funny tweet today that I believe this person is a building was
entirely original, but Asia, Flyer tweeted! Today,
point in time. I would feel safer if the corona virus held a press conference to advise how to protect against, to protect myself against the government as a pretty good line. I don't know I thought of her first, so Asia, flyers, nothin credit for it was hardly corroded virus- tells how to protect ourselves from our own government. I wish that didn't make sense.
But a candid us I'd news about the FBI
Firstly, the allegedly used it. There were at least twelve informants in there.
The situation where there were a bunch of people who tried to release plan to kidnap
Governor of Michigan and try I'll try her of her some imagine crimes. So there were twelve informants and the question is: did the informants?
make it happen? Where were they contributing to the fact that maybe wasn't gonna happen unless informants were.
Goading them a little bit.
And the answer is we don't know, but here's the bigger context?
The FBI, even on our side anymore,.
Have you noticed how many stories will
the FBI or some intelligence agency from the United States? Not always
He liked are on our side. Right is a little bit confusing. We'll talk about Giuseppe. Will we'll get you your point here,
all right so outlining how many cases do we have the FBI and intelligence agencies being questioned? We can all we could go back to Russia collusion.
When we first learn that our intelligence agencies absolutely cannot be trusted.
Or was it really the first Iraq war with the weapons of mass destruction, not the first and the second on the? What about that? But what about the weapons of mass destruction, intelligence agencies,
What about the riot slash insurrection as some call it on the capital,
the intelligence or FBI. Everything to do with that don't know.
Do. They have anything to do with our election security now, but
sky the sad there were yet Epstein, its Sandra ran Contra, theirs,
pretty long list
things are our own intelligence agencies, or at least implicated in or suspected of other, I'm saying all the Gather Haiti,
what were we beyond eighty one about Cuba,
United States behind the cuban protests. Probably right.
Don't do you so that, even if they didn't start at least got involved, why would they.
So we definitely have a different situation with our own intelligence agencies, which is, if you're trusting Lamb. Maybe you shouldn't Musha.
There was a instagram
Star influence her who like to take.
Pictures of herself poised,
dangerous cliffs.
She fell into one of those cliffs and now she's dead. Now.
This is one of my fears, because you might know that my wife Christina, takes a lot of selfies for her instagram pay,
and she does sometimes stand in very dangerous places to get the best picture.
And I got to say this is my nightmare scenario of her falling trying to take a picture.
But ass. It there's nothing for you about this, except we reached a point where vanity is worth more than life itself. That people will take the risk of literally dying literally dying,
and so he says my wife- does a garbage pisses me off every time.
Because it feels like risk
during their life and your life's too for a picture. Doesn't it
feels, like you know, you're you're, sort of young. If
Was a loved one falls over a cliff? It's not like it. Just
the facts lab among things?
is like me on the cliff. It doesn't even feel like somebody else, just feels like as you on the cliff.
By the way, the speech on voting rights and there's a clip that came out of it
I'm having trouble believing is real,
soon, there some context left out, but
to the video.
I didn't say that
or about who counts the votes that it is about the votes which is sort of a call back to where was as Stalin, who said that that its hoo hoo councillors and matters now as Stalin and
there's a clump of Biden say yesterday the basically saying it with his own words. Not not quote. I thought to myself where we mrs Context,
Was there something else they would have made that sound, not as bad as it sounds? It is as if the least, the devil.
We are making to simultaneous arguments one
That the election was fine and the
where is the elections or never fine right? Does it feel like that you're trying to take
the positions that are opposites this, like
It was totally five everything
good about this Latin also, all elections are not fine. I feel like you got it,
you take a stand either all fine or they're? Not this or not. We should build a question and if they are well make your case that are often
I suppose you can't prove a negative sir, that I guess you'd have to prove that their not find. That would be the more fair way to do it.
Certainly assumes that binding. Is
that are voting system has problems, came
take that away from it by Mary Theatre, exactly.
binary theatres, where you act like it's all one thing or all the other thing.
So here this this next peace will give you
Feeling about how bad news situation is ready for this.
So Gregg Abbot, who wanted to respond to by saying that the Texas in particular, is trying to
It pass a bunch of laws to make it harder to vote and to suppress the vote from presumably Democrats, presumably black Americans, which would be there.
Accusation- and of course, Gregg says Ear
You're lying Biden, basically paraphrasing and you said that the Texas legislator, late
just later- is passing a law that quote?
bans early voting hours and prevents mail in Bela fraud, so which one is true?
Oh, if you watch your locals and you're, only getting a black screen is working. Fine. We may have to try a different browser or restart your browser or something, but it is working fine for everybody else. So who is lying is Gregg Abbot. The governor
of taxes lying that the rules being contemplated, won't make it harder to vote and won't be voter suppression. Is that a lie that true and is by
life is by them, taking something that is nothing but
Normal protection of an election process.
And somehow
Turning that into something that doesn't which ones lie.
Let me ask you this show
a link to the publication that line
each of the rule changes. Their taxes is contemplating
and judges each of those rule changes to be either a standard practice. This just good for an election keeps things secure,
or could have no purpose other than suppression.
find me that article about you can't and here's ears, the mine, fuck I'll bet you can't
Because it's not the biggest story in the country, the biggest
the country should be here's the list. Each bullet point four,
things they want to change and hears
the analysis, says. Ok, this one just make sense
so it looks a little sketch because I don't think this.
What is gonna make anything more secure, but by suppress allowed this next one looks good.
That's nice, one could be the way right
If you are going to write the story
and you are not a partisan
I just wonder objectively right the story about the Texas.
Election rule changes
it's not what you would do you.
List them all.
you say that mobile suppress or that will just make things better right, where's that good luck, good luck, finding and the article that gives you information
if it is every article will either take a position that there
nothing here to see, or that is
Her suppression.
the news, completely stopped being news. I guess maybe already knew
But they used to be at least some pretending right, at least those and pretending
Now I dont believe there's even one publication, whose
the slightest attempt to tell you.
The actual news is: what are the facts? How do we see these facts? Nobody.
Right, I'm looking new common skills. If someone
seen such an article, you D say: oh read the Washington Post article or read the Washington, the Wall Street Journal.
Yeah, I've looked forever
resource, but I'll betcha betcha. The news does exist.
I had recruits, as the New York Times had loads of facts. They
did, they organise them.
Organise them the way I said which will allow you to understand that
or was it in a dense.
Narrative in which, by the time,
you're done you weren't quite sure the pluses and minuses I'll betcha
It was in a dense narrative and it was not just a bunch of bullet points and in a few words about each one
Because that would tell you what's happening, anything else is just is just propaganda right
so here is of the counter points that I saw just on a tweet. They made me think less.
so does matter to, but some random tweeted about Gregg Abbots complaints that there was nothing about voter suppressed.
Here the counterpoint was and do a fact check of ear. So each
these things, I'm gonna say I don't know them to be true. It's just something on twitter.
Is Texas banning twenty four hour early voting is happening, is Texas,
and twenty four hour early voting
the governor says they're expanding early voting hours, but is that the same topic
Or is expanding early hours this
as twenty four hour?
early voting, because I think there's just word games going
So I don't even understand, what's happening so
I'm saying the comments. What I think is the case, which is that the day
voting, you can vote earlier, which will be good good for everybody, but maybe you can vote the day before
What changed? Could you not argue.
Getting rid of voting the day before would suppress votes? How could you would you think otherwise somebody says what does suppression mean in this
text. Well, suppression could mean that, for some people with some kinds of jobs is harder to get away to vote
So if you give them more options of times they can vote, you increase the odds. Somebody use having trouble scheduling it can make it happen,
Dave Rubin said the National Review of all places had your bullet point list. If something is seventy a link to that night here, but you know where to find me, send me a link to that on twitter
But in any event, is certainly not a common way that its being portrayed
There's another one is there banning drive through voting is happening. Is somebody banning drive through voting? I'm not even sure what drives revolting is exactly except, I guess you
get out of your car. Now. Why would they be building that's? What would exactly would be the problem with drive thru voting, so alright, I'm seeing a lot of people suggesting Dave Rubin handle this so I'll go I'll. Go check that out.
so I don't know, I've been dry through voting must be more of that story.
About asking for voter idea for male in ballots. I feel like that's kind of fair. Are you telling me that we didn't require any kind of indication of identification for a male imbalance?
That's true, I didn't you know that was true, was
Always true, though,
you're just mail in your ballot without any photocopy of your idea, or even so,
It does seem to me that that would suppress the vote for sure makes a lot.
but also makes it harder to cheap? So would it be.
That this is a case of voters, suppression
would it be a case of just making an election? More secure looks like both? Doesn't it, but
if a suppresses and also makes things more secure, which way to go
do you say well make you more secure,
there's not worthwhile. I guess it depends how unsecured becomes lips or love
That's what the whole mail in voting things about identifying who, who is suddenly men.
You know, I always thought that there was at least
some way to check that they were real and maybe that I've been out. Ok,
oh and are all the other items even important, or is this having?
De for vote, right of four million boat votes,
that's the only one that matters do
We have the other things even make a difference. They checked my idea, but I had no confidence. My vote went through someplace.
Somebody says that they check your idee idea and signature matching are all that matter, so they do a signature match.
That is one was last time you soldiers, you signed your name, the same way.
Am I the only person who signs their name different, everyday.
When you sign a year was say your credit card thing, whatever you use the same signature, I just a script.
I've been for the last ten years. I don't even try to do my name. I just go.
but some of the some of you actually sign your name. The way it with the way like a regular signature works. Yeah. I haven't done that for years. I don't think you could find two of my signatures in last ten years that are even close.
Well, ok, we got lots questions on this. The news is not serving as well.
I caught some trouble yesterday and I remind you that when I talk about the topics of the pandemic.
I'm sort of into now more about the psychology of it.
The psychology of it is infinitely interesting to me, even if you're over that pandemic itself. So if you're talk about masked work or vaccinations work or whatever, I don't, I'm not into that conversation. So much. Let's just talk about how people feel about stuff,
And how they make decisions and are going to start with the star
a little poll that I did on Twitter. I said if you're on vaccinated
here's a resource conservation. This morning I said it,
you're on vaccinated you're in the middle of a deadly pandemic. But if your vaccinated is just Wednesday
this is a statement of my own psychological situation. Me.
that your opinion may vary, of course, but to me being fully vaccinated once it was done.
I didn't feel like I was in the pandemic anymore. You are a lot of you're the pandemic, but I'm not going to die from it. I mean my odds are so low now that it's just something.
thinking about and underwear mask anymore and without a mask on for a while
if I travel that where one but I decided not to travel until I don't need to our one. So for me, the pandemics sort of over
Now a number of you of course said, but I already had covered so's over four b and other people say: I'm not afraid of it, because it's such
I survival rates over me too, but here's the thing I'm gonna give you the hypnotists filter on all these decisions, and it goes like this and you do not like it. Everybody who made a decision about getting vaccinated or not vaccinated major decision based on fear.
That's it that's the hypnotist filter, because we do not have enough information to make a rational decision
We don't know the odds of one thing versus the odds of another. We just have the information so we're making the decision based entirely.
on what scares us the most and, if you're doing that, and you are accusing other people of making the decision based on
here you are operating at a lower level of awareness. Then you will be well. I'm done with you.
the low level of awareness.
Is that you made your decision based on the data, but other people. Maybe you made different decisions.
Made their decision based on fear.
That's a pretty low level of awareness is the common one, probably the most common,
But as a low level of awareness.
The higher level of awareness, where the
All starts to make sense to you is that everybody, including you,
me, no matter how rationally I talk about. It
We all made a decision based on fear. Then we rationalized it.
Some of us are better at rationalizing right. I'm a professional author.
so I could probably rationalize better than you can meaning I do for a living. I put words together to sound, persuasive, it's what I do on the profession.
So I could probably rationalize my fear decision better than you could.
but does that mean that my decision was based logic, data nope?
I was just better rationalizing. It might look
It was based on the logic and data, because I'm so,
an irrational icing, but now the hamlet IST knows
The only irrational processes were at work for me, but also for you. It's less witless walk through this little bit.
Which of these fears scares you the most or risk was saying
Are you more afraid of a rapidly approved vaccine? I asked this twitter pull this morning.
What is scarier. You can tell me in the comments you can play along what is scare
you're a rapidly approved vaccine?
these rapidly approved instead,
words I hear on the internet like untested or experimental
Or guinea pigs, I could use
Any of those words,
because they rapidly approved because I'm sort of captures the rest, don't you think.
so what is scary or to a rapidly approve vaccine from your government, which has lied to you for years now, of course, is from private industry, but the governments involved, or would you be more
More afraid of an engineered deadly virus made by China, so those you two choices
a rapidly approved vaccine.
Or an engineer deadly virus.
which one is the bigger risk, the answer is you don't know you don't know
You have no way to know if either these good,
avenue in the long run now. I know now
I observe that the people
who are afraid of the vaccine, more than they're afraid of the virus itself,
Ten to rationalize, by ignoring long haul risks.
So if you see a rationalization says but
Survival rate is ninety nine percent and the.
and there dumb nine. Ninety nine percent survive worry. That's all you need to know.
That person is rationalizing.
if they were using data and facts, they would have used data facts. They would have said, for example,
While others that ninety nine percent chance I'll survive based on my demographics but
There is also this long or risk this hard to calculate and a lot more people have that and maybe,
even more people have it and even though they have it, maybe people thinking their suffering from other problems, but really is the long.
Maybe a little inflammation in the brain, maybe a little lives.
Patient in the organs, maybe now
does the long haul risk turn into any kind, permanent problem.
Does the does the corona viruses action once you fully recovered
Is there anything lingering it's remember
engineer virus. So, if you can,
area to every seasonal flu.
Maybe you're, leaving out a risk, because this thing was engineered right, probably, I think we're still improbably zone
it was engineered. So if the only thing you knew was a
the choice of a rapidly approved vaccine scary.
Or an engineered deadly virus from China,
pretty scary, you,
I'm going right all
your decisions. All of your decisions, including mine, about,
whether we got vaccinated not had nothing to do with data. It had nothing to do with logic. Had nothing to do with how well you can interpret the science
It had nothing to do with the Greenwood Science or disagree had nothing to do with your personal freedom. Had nothing to do with trust in the government or say who's just was scared you the most. That's it
this was scared you, the most now you know my relationship with China right now so good. To say the least. China me we're not friends, we're not friends
So am I influenced by the fact that this
came out of China. Absolutely
Could I tell you exactly how I'm influenced not really us now works,
just now that I must have a bias, because, if you put as much pressure on me in this situation, I just assume it is about
what do I think about american scientific capability pretty good.
pretty good, which is not to say that there are lots of scientific studies they get debunked simply like half of them. I think that our peer reviewed get above, but here's my bike
I'm biased in favour of american technology, not for a rational reasons. I just have that bias, I'm biased against China because they shipped sentinel into this
country and my steps on diet of an overdose included sentinel so.
I have a permanent hatred of the chinese government, not the people, of course, but the chinese government so.
what I evaluate my fear and my mom,
are afraid of the engineer chinese virus or have
Just put all my bias into that, but I don't know I can't tell that's how it works, maybe
you can tell cuz I'll be outside looking in in might be a little more clear, but on the inside looking out, I can't tell I don't have much by us I'm applying to any of this, but
I will tell you that
my immediate family were all vaccinated, now should
tell you to give acts and ended. I think you ve watched me if you watch me closely enough. I've never told you to give accident it. Can you factor there for me if you
Watch me long enough. I have consistently said it's not up to me to tell you to get vaccinated and if, in fact, if you want to not get vaccinated, I'm on two percent. Okay with that, no no problem whatsoever, personal choice, we've just sort of turned into to differ.
Some is some vaccinated sudden I, but I can live in mine problem living now. My choices.
As long as you're happy with yours, then we're both good. I dont need to convince you to go from totally happy to something else. If you're on vaccines,
You're, probably totally happy about. That
what am I gonna go talk you out of being totally happy and then give you something to fear that the vaccination by corrupt you somehow
Future, why would I add a fear to something that you ve got caught completely handled?
Its handled is handled if Europe,
The mapping we're good, I don't
change your life to make it less happy, be happy.
all right, so I'm not trying to change your mind, and I was asked if I'm stealthily, trying to do that. Disabled think that
Does anybody think I am stealthily trying to persuade you to get the vaccination, because
my mind that would be unethical. It would be completely ethical because, another doctor, if your doctor tries to persuade you fine.
But I'm not- and I am also aware that were operating on on fears- that's no way to make a decision,
You may know a user username.
Normally
Those by is twitter handle is legendary energy
I believe he is a well known vaccination. Opponent.
and when I went
tweeted, others topic. He responded this way.
about my comments. He said
If you are a Scot items you are low, like you have brain damage or you are purposely lying
so he believes that my opinion about whether you should get vaccinated or whether I should give accident- I guess or not- is
Either low iq brain damage or purposely like now, if we are good at reading comprehension, we probably believe that he is intending to say that I'm lying or
stupid. I guess about the topic and he goes on to say. If you read the data or are
even below average thinker, you know, is full of shit.
So anomaly believes that a citizen of average intelligence can read the data and come to a decision that
logical decision that is sort of free of
her biases stuff. What do you think of that? Do you think,
The ordinary citizen can read the data, make good decision, that's one of the dumbest fucking things. Will every area
Let me tell you if you fallen for the myth that the average person can do their own research and come to a decision on a scientific or even financial decision. That's one of the dumbest fucking things in the world.
I can't I have a pretty high opinion of my abilities. Would you agree.
You watch me long enough. Would you say it's true that that I Scott have a high opinion of my abilities.
To analyze things and figure out. What's true from once, not right,
The very high opinion of my abilities, I can't read the data and come to a decision, that's not even close to what I could do and I think I'm more capable them a lot of you being honest, may not be true.
But if I mean honest, I think it's true. I think that I have lots of lots of elements
my talents, that, from being an economist to your business experience, I've got an mba.
You learn, persuasion, etc. So my talent stagnation,
Put me in pretty good position
do what anomaly says anybody can do just read the data yourself.
That's the lowest level of understanding.
So I would say: anomaly is suffering from the problem of youth, not lack of intelligence for sure, smart guy, smart guy for sure
but I believe there is a lack of experience that may be fixed just by time itself,
then, if you believe you are capable of looking at the data, let me
You talk here to user.
Tv, I Ozzy, who says it all caps fix your volume,
fix. Your volume fix your volume. No, no, there's nothing wrong with a fucking volume say once.
There's nothing wrong with a fucking volume, Netflix Netflix bug the problems on your side, Goethe.
you're fucking volume or get off the light? Get off the street right? Just fix your volume or get or just fuck fuck off just leave,
maybe I got triggered alone so anyway, my my
situation here with the anomaly? Was a smart guy, but operating?
pretty low level of awareness at this point still
Instead of average person can read the data and come to a rational conclusion, doesn't
understand that all of us made our decisions based on fear, fear alone, we didn't use any data, we couldn't understand
we looked at it. But here's how you tell if one of us is in cognitive dissonance you ready. What is the trick of? I ever taught you there
have. I ever tell you that
you can determine which of two people is experiencing cognitive dissonance. If it looks like it's, one of them could be both. I suppose.
But once I one of them has cognitive dissonance and the other one doesn't on this topic. How do you know?
Which one it is attacked the messenger, that's a good clue
but not as good as the one I'm gonna be talking about. The personal attack is, is can be a tip off.
But there is another thing that look from the trigger. Thank you. Yes, look from the trigger recipe. A trigger you dont, get cognitive dissonance. Is the world looks exactly like you assumed it would look right.
What is my world? Look like you, ve all seen by many of you have seen
Opinions for the entire pandemic.
Does my worldview right now was broken
In other words, or is there something I thought was true
Now science or experience has shown me isn't, is not true.
because if that happened, that would be the trigger
may not be aware of it. However,
Let's say if you're anomaly,
and you were aunt. I I think this is fair if some, if I'm miss characterizing on which is easy to do. If I missed.
Characterizing,
anomaly. Somebody like you know
but I believe he is a sceptic about the usefulness of
accelerations relative to the risk that fair how's he doing
How is his world his world view that the vaccinations, or maybe not a good idea, how's that looking compared to actual experience? Would you say that the data supports his view that it was
good idea to give vaccinations orders and data support the idea. That is a good idea and then is working fabulously at the moment, which you think he is sceptical of the planned,
So it is sceptical of the seriousness of the virus without be accurate, if he's sceptical about,
the seriousness of the pandemic itself, then that would extend to being sceptical about the need for vaccinations. So I opt out I'm characterizing right, I'm not trying to miss scarecrows
While I would say that my worldview, the vaccines vaccinations, add some risk, but that it is a good risk management, trade off
most people. I would say that my worldview is being supported by the data and the entire scientific community.
and when I say entire I mean mostly consensus.
How many of you would agree with it with the statement that my
world view, as it is developed as a change that much better
developed still consistent with everything we observe? Would you say? That's
because if that's true that I don't have a trigger but
is anomalies world view that the the panel
like. Wasn't really real in this
I wasn't as dangerous as as a proportionate.
and that the vaccinations may be an overreaction with an extra risk we don't need. Is that backed up by the science and and the yeah? I don't think it is
So I think this is one of those cases, but again
the one who can judge it right
I could be seeing something that just isn't there, because I'm I'm in
situation? That's our cognitive dissonance, dissonance works, but you, my friends,
are not in this situation. The way he and I are cause we're having a conversation about it, so you can be the judges,
Which one of us has a trigger? I, which one of us does not.
In which one of us has a keener understanding of how humans make decisions. I feel like that's me, but I can be wrong. I could be experiencing confirmation vice right. That is pretty much what I want to talk about today. But let me ask you this.
since we brought the point, I'm gonna get witches scarier to you. The
because I didn't see all your answers. I'd like to see this again, just as a wrap up which
Scarier to you a rapidly approved vaccination.
Or an engineered virus that comes out of China, which is scarier in the law,
Because, in both cases, you really talking about the long term risk this unknown right well,.
Ok over locals, it's all China engineered virus.
And somebody says both both is no affair. You carry equally scared. Both are you.
Save a few people say the rapid vaccination now. One difference, of course, is that whoever made the rapid vaccinations was trying to
Whoever made a engineered virus, maybe they were trying to help you maybe.
that is a bs comparison knows not? Who.
Who thinks it's a bs comparison to compare? Maybe you talk about something else is not a bs comparison to to compare it with which one scares you the most, because, as I made the decision,
I'm afraid of this binary choice.
They engineer the virus to solve accents.
I always worried about that with Mcafee. Did you ever wonder of Mcafee ever created,
iris, so he'd have arisen. Reason for his company to sell antivirus stuff.
I must say that happened, but you have to assume he thought of it.
After you have to assume that some boy he thought to himself. You now.
The more viruses are out there that I can fix the richer I'll, be.
Now again, I have no reason to assume he did that or anybody else did that, but man that risk would be. I mean you could do it and get away with it so easily if it feels like that, be a
big risk you. I have no reason to think he would do that. So that's not an accusation.
Somebody says virus made by incompetence, verses vaccination made by incompetence. Are they in government the rapidly
proved vaccination, that's just as competent as you can be in the short time frame. The problem is the timeframe, not the competence.
Still, no real just engineered and released. Ok
Why are we not hearing about booster shortly be needed for the Madonna? Is that because we know the Madonna last longer or because I just haven't tested as well, I'm still waiting to hear if I'm gonna ups something about
Yet the M rna stuff holds a lotta promise right that you know, I think the biggest accidental outcome of the pandemic is going to be the golden age. Imagine this. Do you think the golden age could happen without the pandemic because they give the things that the pandemic changed? You changed your commuting patterns. It changed. Maybe yelled.
Are we live, but one of the things that the pandemic changed is that we sort of rapidly got pregnant with this am stuff how
I could, at the american aid, technology have gone without the pandemic because.
and I'd took a thing that was promising and turn it into a gigantic thing, which can now be extended. Apparently the technology platform,
can be extended into curing a whole bunch of previously unclearable stuff and lotta. That's in the pipeline testing
Would we have them so far, along with the public be as willing
try an MRI anything on some other disease? If we had not got through the pandemic,
So one of the outcomes of the pandemic might be a gigantic improvement in lifespan. Maybe that's bad too, but at least we're trying to get that.
I feel like the M rna stuff could be just a world changer, maybe not, but as broad as potential decoupling decoupling from China? If the pandemic helped us decouple from China? Is that good or bad probably go
Oh yes, we also the pandemic, also exposed the problem. We have in our school systems that the problem of the lack of choice in the school teachers, unions, etc. We urge decoupling dick shit. I agree with that statement. The amount of decoupling we ve done from China so far is trivial to none, but I feel like we stopped that the momentum towards more coupling- so maybe that's first
covert was persuasion for the Am Rna technology well, not intentionally, but it worked out that way you I think we have more awareness of things made in China for sure, and I definitely would make a decision based on that in four every product I could buy in China. I would pay more for the american version now, I'm part of this stupid rich. So I can do that. I would ask you to do it, but I will pay more,
I don't know how much more depends on the item. If it says, let's say it's a household item, you know you just going to buy a new sponge for the for the kitchen.
I will take twenty percent more for the american sponge
if I'd pay twenty percent more for a house or a car. I might, I may start getting selfish at that point, but if I'm, if I'm buying.
I don't know, I think this cable may have come from your vagina or at least some of the cables I bought recently came from China if I could have bought the same cable for twenty percent more from an american company. Definitely no, no hesitation, twenty four!
nor for an american product every time and would have anything to do with quality. I don't even know if I get quality,
Some things are only made in China. You know what I'd also like to see is a list of
things that are made in China that the United States would like to encourage being made here when you like to see that
is like these things are made only in China. I like to see that list.
what is made only in China because that would be the best business you could ever start. Let me go
it was started by the find a product that you can make in America, ideally with robots cassettes will lower the cost of the employees.
cause if you could find anything, that's only made in China and then you make a robot version of it in the United States
sell. It is only made in the year the US that's a real good business model right now, right, Ebike Motors and batteries yeah. I don't know how many batteries we making the United States that's a problem.
by wooden battery manufacturing be robots. If you made a battery manufacturing plant that the robots right out
Giuseppe says: you'd be hesitant yeah, you know. If one we're talking about the vaccination wrists
if you're younger it's a different different calculation? We, I think we all agree with that, are ongoing to close down Youtube for now. Thank you. You tubers were watching by the way before you go. You tubers hold on locals talkin to you to browse for a moment here. Could you hit a subscribe button if you'd like to get notified?
I never asked you to do that, cuz, it's a pain in the ass in the slowest on the show. So I don't like asking you: if the beginning, where most people do it's just terrible for the flow
but as long as you're here and we're done with the content. If you get the subscribe, but before you go, it would help me out because the bigger this grows, the better it is for me, but is also good for the world. I like to think. Let me ask you this: am I
force for the for the world, did you feel that if somebody watches
They come out ahead. Does that's what I'm trying to do.
I'm trying to go beyond entertainment. If
We're getting out of this is entertainment. I would be disappointed because I'm shooting much higher than that of thank you. People locals are, of course, is a subscription service. Some more people are going to say. Yes, oh god, I'm getting less good, come
Son on Youtube as well, so that's good now by the way. This is the reason I do it. A man can do a lot of things to make money, and I can do a lot of things that would be. You may be useful
but the only reason I do this is because it is helping- and you know what I did my personality test. The other day when things came out of it was that I have some kind of genetic need to be useful, which I don't think he's. Universal, apparently is a personality trade, but if the only thing I did was felt a great way to make myself happy, we would make me unhappy pages wouldn't last year that the only thing that as a lasting like real benefit, is, if you do something for other people, and maybe there s and lasting benefit. Kelvin says he is a genetic need to be high and hot tub, well,
I share that need with you, as that's happened a few times lightly, the nightly covert talks were awesome. Yeah. You know, I feel as though I have said this before online, something I'll say at the end of the road.
is that I always thought that my future
I sort of a vision of my future. All of my life.
a vision included that when I reached this exact age, there would be
a global disaster that out
Some role and in terms of communicating- and I always I always have
vision in my head, since I was a kid that my entire life arc was about
building their credibility or whatever. It would take such that when I reached it,
Actually, this age, I would be useful in a global problem. I didn't know what that global problem would be, but I feel like the pandemic, delivered it another panda, because my fault I like to think I predicted it, but maybe I manifested can't rule about right. Did you do it? So I dont understand that question,
Righteously, as some of your debates, I should debate or converse live with anomaly.
Really help me would be entertaining but
I'm gonna tell you this is:
no longer say it out loud anyway, Partlet Party,
here's a little word a trick for you for writing as well as doing what I'm doing doing anything public. If you can do something that makes it sound, dangerous or provocative.
I'll stick in people's minds and no one will want to watch it, here's a reason that I would not be interested in debating anomaly
I hate to say this out loud, but it's true. It wouldn't be fair. I dont consider him here ready. In other words, I think he's smart enough. Definitely smart enough.
But he's also young, and I feel like he needs a little seasoning before that would be a fair fight and that it would have to be a fair fighter, wouldn't really fun. I don't wanna justly be clubbing baby arms.
Dylan LIVE stream now, obviously he would think that's not going to happen, but I don't think he's quite ready for that.
And by the way I don't want that to sound like an insult. If you look at it
his age- if you can reverse me back to his age- totally fair fight,
basically he's me he's me at that age. Basically, so
debating me at that age. If it's me at this age that wouldn't be a fair fight, so should be ignored.
Are you planning to have guess what my understanding is that at least the locals platform is going to allow some? We guessed access if Youtube did a better job that maybe I do that too. So I have to figure out into that platform. Noise. I've TAT did not do guess, because I find those
It was to be slow. Does anybody else have that experience? We,
guess so,
I am sure all have some on here, but.
Don't you notice that those shows or slower is that? Is that just my impression, I'm going to look at your comments here cuz. I will actually decide based on your comments.
mostly boring ass, grew guess. Well yeah. I did have an of all rather count on here
he's not like a regular guest. If you hadn't noticed anywhere,
we have all goes. It becomes more interesting, so you would be the exception.
Ok, I see recommending atomic habits by James Clear. Is that? Because you think I should intervene, because if I interviewed him I think you'd say he got some of his ideas for me. I think he s at that, but or at least that their compatible with my stuff so we'd be basically talking to ourselves, because we just would agree on everything.
always says in the book. I would like you to be a guest on Visa Barnes.
How many of you were watching the Visa Barnes POD? Guess they're really good at its becoming my favorite podcast. So
I think he's on rumble as well as you to be some. There are locals as well
if you haven't watched fever and Barnes.
I think it started out as a good concept, but they didn't quite of the execution down and now now the execution is looking really good.
And so when they now that they have the great execution of the great, too great personalities, and they do great topics-
I would say one of the strongest podcast actually in the whole internet right now. It's the best thing.
And you will see the same all opinions there fresh every time.
And you ll see stuff that you hadn't seen before we ll see references to facts. You haven't heard mainstream media
and I would say, top top shelf viva Barnes. So do I knew a good Google on that? You can see the name scullion in the comments
google it most of the talk is about legal stuff, but it turns out
Almost everything in the news has a legal element to it. Lately, anyway, the political issues- and they do just a great job.
He had just do a search just to an internet search on Visa and barns Ba are, and yes it operator highly recommended, and if you subscribe, you could see it on local
I think you'll see some extra stuff, that's it for now.
for now
