That's a funny 9 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 2: think this is Trump country. I think this is our country. 10 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: Is that a sweetheart? Let's hold an election and find out, 11 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: you know, is that lefty? 12 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 4: Jeez? 13 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: Is that AOC? 14 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, that didn't sound like getting all earthy. So Bernard 15 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 5: Sanders and AOC. They showed up in fulsome California. They're 16 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 5: doing what Trump did to great effect when he was 17 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 5: running for president. He'd go to you know, lefty places, 18 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:16,199 Speaker 5: someplace in New York or wherever, college town, someplace whereas 19 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 5: all lefties and draw you know, his people, and got 20 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 5: a lot of attention and everything like that. I mean, 21 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 5: it's it's not complicated. We've been saying this for years. 22 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 5: So we've been on in San Francisco for twenty two 23 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 5: years now, and people would always say, how do people 24 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 5: accept you in San Francisco. Well, it's not difficult. I 25 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 5: mean because you've created enthusiasm. Because places aren't all one 26 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 5: hundred percent one direction or the other. They tend to 27 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 5: be even if a place is overwhelmingly one direction politics 28 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 5: or not, it's like seventy thirty. And if you I mean, 29 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 5: and that's like really overwhelming, it might be seventy thirty. 30 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 5: And if you got seven million people, for instance, I mean, 31 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 5: you have a lot of people, a lot of people that. 32 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 2: Are on the other side. 33 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: As I always say, if it's fifty five forty five, 34 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: you will never win an election. If you're in the 35 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: forty five percent, you are unrepresented, your voices are unheard, 36 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: you're cowed into silence in really blue places like you know, 37 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: the blue parts of California. And so yeah, if a 38 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: Trump comes to town, if an Armstrong you GETTI are 39 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: trying to represent your point of view at least, you know, 40 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:27,799 Speaker 1: some extent. 41 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 2: It's a good thing. 42 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, as strategies go, it's pretty clever. It's just 43 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: that it's being executed by AOC and Bernie goodness sakes, 44 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: if Josh Shapiro was doing this, I'd be thinking, oh boy, 45 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: this is interesting. 46 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 2: Bernie gets And I don't know how much of that 47 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 2: is AOC. 48 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 5: What there was somebody, some political person wrote a thing 49 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 5: in the New York Post that said AOC needs to 50 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 5: be taken seriously as a presidential candidate. And I don't know, 51 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 5: but I don't know how many people are there for 52 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 5: her because Bernie has drawn those kind of enthusiastic crowds. 53 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 5: The only people I've ever seen in my life that 54 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 5: have drawn those kind of crowds are Trump, Obama and Bernie. 55 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 2: That level of enthusiasm. 56 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And it's funny the lineup, the concert lineup 57 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: of Bernie and AOC. 58 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 2: It works. 59 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: It's like when John Mayer joined The Grateful Dead.

Jeez, 137 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: gurgle I don't remember what I used to do my 138 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders imitation. 139 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 2: That was years ago, wasn't it when he was running 140 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 2: against Hillery Master answer. 141 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 5: One more, one more comment on this, because I I've 142 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 5: got to discipline myself to not talk about twenty twenty 143 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 5: eight presidential elections. 144 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 2: Will help you discipline. 145 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 5: But you know, Bernie should have gotten the nomination a 146 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 5: couple of times. It was taken from him by the 147 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 5: Democratic Party. I mean, if they were going to follow 148 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 5: the rules, he would have gotten the nomination twice. And 149 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 5: Elizabeth Warren's popular, AOC's popular. I feel like the Democratic 150 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 5: I would love this, of course. I think feel like 151 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 5: the Democratic Party's got to go through one of these people, 152 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 5: actually nominate them, lose forty seven states to. 153 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 2: Put that to rest, so they all like go to 154 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 2: the direction. 155 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 5: James Carville keeps saying, we got to become more moderate Democrats. 156 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 5: That's what we are, that's what the party that can win. 157 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 5: But I feel like they gotta do it. They got 158 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 5: to give it a full try once, like actually have 159 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 5: the candidate. So go ahead and run AOC or Bernie, 160 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 5: get it out of your system. Lose almost the entire country. 161 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 5: Good because you will and then you'll be done with it. 162 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 5: You know who I nominate for that pinata?

I don't think he's gonna 165 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 5: run on that stuff. He's gonna try not to, but 166 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 5: he can't. It's it's like the stench after you leave 167 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 5: a bar or smoke. He's never hiboted.

Adolescent girls probably mostly right. Maybe it's 260 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 5: more popular than I because I know some high schoolers 261 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 5: who are who are noodle boys.

Red flags for this one family were eighth 271 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 5: grader would turn down ice cream favorite desserts.

But this song is from nineteen twenty six 299 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: dig the sounds of the six jumping jacks, both. 300 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 5: Maculine women and feminine men. 301 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: Wow. 302 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: So this has always been a thing to some extent, 303 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: more or less, I remember the Androgyna's rock stars of 304 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: the seventies and eighties. 305 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 5: It's maybe it's just always been a thing. Every generation 306 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 5: thinks young men today are too feminine. 307 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 2: I'll be darned Manold Armstrong and Geeddy. 308 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 11: At Chicago last night, former President Biden gave his first 309 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 11: speech since leaving office. As a result, millions of Americans 310 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 11: now believe in life after death. He was speaking to 311 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 11: a group of advocates for the disabled, who were surprised 312 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,359 Speaker 11: to learn the keynote speaker was one of their clients. 313 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 2: Wow. Wow, So. 314 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: I have been asserting for a very long time now, 315 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: at least a few months. Then, in virtually all of 316 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: human history, there has never been a case where one 317 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:23,959 Speaker 1: country launched an unprovoked attack, or one people launched an 318 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: unprovoked attack on a neighbor and lost that. They did 319 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: not lose their land or their sovereignty or both. That's 320 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: just always what happens. It has to be what happens. Anyway, 321 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: we're talking about hamas slash well, Islamic Islamists, Islamic supremacists, 322 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: hamas has law, et cetera, under the tutelage of Iran 323 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: trying to take out Israel in the October seventh atrocities. 324 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 2: So a handful of stories. 325 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: And these were not chosen to back up my assertion 326 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: that that's the way this is moving. It's just it's 327 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 1: I think it's an inescapable conclusion that Israel has decided 328 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: no two state, no living side by side. That's over, Goodbye, 329 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 1: We're done. Handful of headlines Lebanon's government arrests militants, asserting 330 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: its authority. Lebanon, which has been in the weird position, 331 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: picture this if you can, one of their major political 332 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 1: parties has a powerful army supported by a foreign country. 333 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: It's like, if you know the Green Party had one 334 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: hundred thousand men under arms being paid for by I 335 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: don't know, Venezuela. That's been the situation in Lebanon with Hesbola. 336 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: But because of the serious damage done to Hesbela by Israel, 337 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: with a little bit of help from their big buddy 338 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: in the United States, all of a sudden, Lebanon is 339 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: reasserting its authority over its own nameation and making progress anyway, 340 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: who could forget the delightful Pager attack for instance. Yeah, 341 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 1: so more directly to Israel, this is you know, it's 342 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: funny we have I think, like one listener who's militantly 343 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: pro Palestinian and sent an email yesterday completely denying the 344 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: notion that Hamas positions fighters among civilians schools and hospitals 345 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: and that. 346 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 2: Sort of thing. 347 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, I heard a report on NPR, as I do 348 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 5: practically every day, about some attack Israel had and how 349 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 5: many innocent Palestinians were killed, as. 350 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 2: I said last morning to Hamas. 351 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 5: According to Homos, I've yet to hear one negative story 352 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 5: about Hamas on NPR ever, one ever. 353 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, well, they are so captured by the whole settler, colonialist, 354 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: victim of presser framework of the world. They can't see 355 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: anything but that. And you know, for the millionth time, 356 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 1: that's what I'm really concerned about with our nation's education system. 357 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: We're teaching all our kids to view the world that way, 358 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: and it's twisted and just it's wrong. But anyway, the 359 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: head of nursing at Gaza's NASA Hospital came out the 360 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: other day and publicly urged Palestinian Islamic Jihad and other 361 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: groups to quit using the medical facility as a military center, base, 362 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: meeting place, et cetera. 363 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 2: For the obvious reasons. 364 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: Israel's bringing down the bombs on your fighters because your 365 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: fighters are in the hospital and it's screwing up our hospital. 366 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 2: Well for that outrage, the uh where is this? 367 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 1: Palestinian Islamic Jihad sent him a little note. He found 368 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: a type message waiting in his office, a blunt warning 369 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: that read, dear one, you've crossed the line. Be careful. 370 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: This is your first warning. Soccer the gentleman involved. The 371 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: nursing director described the threat as brutal, adding a call 372 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: on you in the name of God not to forgive them. 373 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 1: This is the brave, brave fighters that NPR is praising 374 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: all the time. You know, there are a lot of 375 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: people in Gaza in the West Bank who sympathize a 376 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: great deal with the Islamic supremacists. 377 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 2: They're a pretty good handful that don't. 378 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, we saw it on October seventh when they are 379 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 5: driving through the streets with captured nineteen year old girls 380 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 5: they'd raped and beaten and some of them were shot, 381 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 5: and they're just cheering like crazy and beating them on 382 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 5: the head with sticks as they drove by. It your 383 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 5: average a lot of your average Palestinians on the. 384 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: Street, right, Yeah, worth remembering. But for those who are 385 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: demonstrating against Tamas, for instance, or this head of nursing 386 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: who said get the hell out of the hospital, boy, 387 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: those are courageous folks. One more headline, a depleted hamasis 388 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: so low on cash it can't pay its fighters. Israel's 389 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 1: targeted killings. AID cuts have disrupted the militant group's source 390 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 1: of cash and ability to distribute it in Gaza. And 391 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: there are a couple of details of the story that 392 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: you know, NPR is a joke, but it's funny. Your 393 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: point just keeps coming up as they go through this stuff. 394 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 1: Israel last month cut off supplies of humanitarian goods to 395 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: the enclave, some of which Amas had been seizing and 396 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 1: selling to raise funds, according to Arab sources, Israeli sources, 397 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: and Western sources. Of course, our job listener would deny that. 398 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: I'm sure too. It doesn't matter. It's just interesting to 399 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: me how some people can claim to things that are 400 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: clearly untrue. It's renewed, defensive, is targeted and killed HAMAS 401 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: officials who played important roles in distributing cash to cadres 402 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: and send others into hiding. In recent weeks, the Israeli 403 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: militaries said have killed a money changer who was key 404 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: to what they call terrorist financing for HAMAS, as well 405 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: as a number of top political off officials in rapid succession. 406 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: The result for Hamas has been a debilitating squeeze. 407 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 2: They've just made it so. 408 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: Difficult logistically to pay the fighters that they can't and 409 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: so your top guys are getting half wages, and they're 410 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: trying to get the wages to the front line guys 411 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: who are fighting and dying. But it's very difficult. And finally, 412 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,199 Speaker 1: this is really the head story, but I saved it 413 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: for last. Israel has taken over about a third of 414 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: the Gaza Strip and has positioned itself in a way 415 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: that makes clear their staying. No country has launched an 416 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: unprovoked attack against its neighbor and lost, and not lost 417 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: its land or its sovereignty or both. 418 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 2: Seems to me increasingly clear. Israel's going to own it all. 419 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 5: And where the Palestinians going somewhere or they can stay 420 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 5: and follow the rules as Israel has always made it 421 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 5: clear Israel has Muslim, Palestinian, Arab whatever you want to 422 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 5: call them, citizens, lots of them. 423 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:06,159 Speaker 2: They're represented in their government. Just follow the rules. 424 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: Don't be an Islamic lunatic trying to wipe us off 425 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 1: the map. 426 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 5: It's gonna be rough, though, It's gonna be all kinds 427 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 5: of suicide bombers and. 428 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 2: Guerrilla warfare for the rest of our lives. Correct, Yeah, 429 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 2: which has been all of our lives? Yeah? 430 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, the fantasy of the two state solution, I mean, 431 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: fool me five times, Shame on me. 432 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 2: That's Israel's point of view right now, most of it. 433 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 2: Now you'll see a lot. 434 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: Of coverage of the left wing in Israel, or the 435 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: poor families desperate to get their family members back who 436 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: are being held brutally as hostages. I get them saying, no, 437 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: we have to have peace. Now, we've got to get 438 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: the hostages back. 439 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 2: I get that. I sympathize. It's not gonna happen. 440 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 5: That guy that tried to kill Governor Shapiro in Pennsylvania 441 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 5: and burn down the governor's mansion, his cause was the Palestinians. 442 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 2: It turns out a nine to one one call. 443 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 5: He he actually called in after he set the fire, 444 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 5: and he was all upset about Shapiros being. 445 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 2: On the side of Israel. So that's what the issue 446 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: was in his crazy mind. 447 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: You know, that's a fairly direct link between radical left 448 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: rhetoric and a violent attack. I mean, granit, I think 449 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 1: this guy's real agenda was my dog is talking to me, 450 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. 451 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 5: So I listened to you mentioned settler colonialism, which I 452 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 5: just kind of had a basic view of until I 453 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 5: listened to a long podcast yesterday. Jonah Goldberg at The 454 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 5: Dispatch had a guy on who's written a book about it, short, 455 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 5: a short book just to try to inform people about 456 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 5: the whole settler colonialism thing. And it is something we 457 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 5: should all be aware of because it's a lot of 458 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 5: what your college kids are learning, and its nutjob stuff. 459 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 5: It's where that comes from, the whole thing where you 460 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 5: walk into a room and say, before we start the meeting, 461 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 5: I'd just like to say, this building was built on 462 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 5: the land owned by the Chippewa Indians. 463 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 2: All that's stuff. 464 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 5: It comes from the whole center colonialism thing, and it's 465 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 5: it's it's a degree worse than the whole anti racist thing. 466 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,919 Speaker 5: You know, the whole anti racist thing was set up 467 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 5: to where you just couldn't win. There's no winning that game, right, 468 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 5: it's trap. If you say you're a racist, cool, now 469 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 5: we control you. If you say you're not a racist, ah, 470 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 5: that's proof you're even a worse racist. 471 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 2: So it's just control you. Yeah. 472 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 5: And so the settler colonial thing is unless you're the 473 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 5: indigenous people. And I still don't understand how you decide 474 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 5: what year you get to choose for the indigenous people. 475 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 5: But because you know, every every piece of land on 476 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 5: Earth has changed hands a gazillion times, so who do 477 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 5: you choose as the originals? But anyway, in the United 478 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 5: States it's easier than it would be in Europe, for instance. 479 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 5: So unless you're a Native American, you are part of 480 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 5: the whole settler colonial thing, and you are benefiting from that, 481 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 5: so we get to do whatever we want. You're you're 482 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 5: bad from the from the from the from the get go, 483 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 5: you're benefit fitting from settler colonialism. And so everything should 484 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 5: be turned upside down and redistributed or text or whatever 485 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 5: it is to try to get the outcome we believe 486 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 5: we should get. 487 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 2: Well, to tear it down and rebuild it as a 488 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 2: Marxist utopia. Yeah. 489 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 5: And one of the reasons, and the most interesting thing 490 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 5: I thought about this with the book was the guy said, 491 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 5: that's why there's so much focus on Israel because it's 492 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 5: a new enough country, it's a small enough country you 493 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 5: could actually like, even though it's crazy, accomplish your goals. 494 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 2: You can't with the United States. 495 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 5: It's too big, complicated, people coming too many times over years, 496 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 5: too long ago. Obviously, in Europe it doesn't work because 497 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 5: you'd have to go back a thousand years to figure 498 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 5: out who's But in Israel you can actually pull it 499 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 5: off kind of. So that's why they put so much 500 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 5: focus on the whole settler colonialism thing there. And that's 501 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 5: all the people that are the queers for Palestine or whatever, 502 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 5: and you wonder, what the hell are you talking about. 503 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 5: It's the whole settler colonial things that's their focus. 504 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: Right, right, And that's you know, we've been saying this 505 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: for years and years before this sort of before the 506 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: terminology was known. It was some of your Larraza, your 507 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 1: Hispanic activists, were saying, we didn't cross the border. The 508 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 1: border crossed us. This is actually our land. And we've 509 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 1: been making the point for a very long time. That okay, 510 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: all right, So you're like the descendants of the Spanish 511 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: conquista doors in what sense? Or you the one righteous owners? 512 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: So what do you date it to? Nineteen twenty, eighteen fifty, 513 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: seventeen forty three, whatever. But the arbitrariness of it, it's 514 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 1: like the whole anti racism thing, that's not the Yes, 515 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: it's arbitrary, Yes it's stupid, Yes it's illogical, But the 516 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: point is you're bad and we can disempower you because 517 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: bad people shouldn't have power, and then we get power 518 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: and we rebuild it as Marxist utopia. 519 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 2: That's how it all ends. 520 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 5: It's so clearly doesn't make sense. I'm surprised it doesn't 521 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 5: get stopped in its tracks. I mean, your example's perfect. 522 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 5: With Mexico, the Spanish came in early fifteen hundreds. Well 523 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 5: prior to that, it was Mayans and Aztecs or whoever. 524 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 5: They got overthrown by the Spanish. So when do you 525 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 5: when do you start the clock on who this land 526 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 5: belongs to? But you've decided to go with people who 527 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,479 Speaker 5: speak Spanish, I guess, well, then you point it up. 528 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 5: You pointed out Europe. Can you imagine trying to establish 529 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 5: it in Europe. For like the Alsace Lorraine, the part 530 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 5: of France has traded hands the French, the Vikings, the totals. 531 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 2: Started about the Visigoths. 532 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 5: I mean where, Yeah, where the hell would you start? Well, 533 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 5: even the United States, you go back to Native Americans. 534 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 5: You don't have to read a hell of a lot 535 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 5: about Native Americans to know about apaches and chy ends 536 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 5: and taking different land. 537 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 2: And you had this junk for a while. So who 538 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 2: are you going to give it to? It's horrifically violent wars. Yeah, 539 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 2: it's such. 540 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 5: A nutjob ideology, but a lot of college kids believe 541 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 5: in it. Well, yeah, you can convince children of about anything, 542 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 5: and then they convinced them that this is righteous, even 543 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 5: though it's idiotic. Apparently, any comment on any of that 544 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 5: stuff are text line four one five two nine five kftc. 545 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 2: Armstrong. 546 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 9: A chaotic scene at a shopping mall in West Hartford, Connecticut. 547 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 9: A bear spotted charger through the parking lot at a 548 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 9: full sprint, some shoppers rushing inside, a wildlife officer chasing 549 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 9: the bear into the nearby woods. They believe the bear 550 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 9: came out of hibernation and was looking for. 551 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: Food and some bargains there at the mall. I saw 552 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: that video. A, it's a good sized bear. B it 553 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: is charging hard. I mean you would, you would fill 554 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: your pants right. 555 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 5: It's just I don't know what I think of these 556 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 5: news stories that they put in, Like toward the end 557 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 5: of the evening newscasts, I'm doing. 558 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 2: Of the only reason I watched these days? 559 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: Am I going to watch that pinhead David Muir's analysis 560 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: of the politics of the day. 561 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 5: He's one of Time's most most influential people. What's time, Grandpa? 562 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:02,239 Speaker 5: But do we get anything out of a story like 563 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 5: a bear got loose and ran through them all? I 564 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 5: mean those kinds of stories and you could. I am 565 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 5: staunchly in favor of it. I just feel I had 566 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 5: a video of a giant squid. 567 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 2: The other day. I enjoyed that. 568 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 5: I feel like I would just rather the news was 569 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 5: ten minutes shorter and it would be over. I'll go 570 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 5: on with my wife, Why are you anti bear video? 571 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: He was exciting? 572 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: There you go, another mild video, mildly entertaining. 573 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 2: I'll be darned. I I just I don't understand. 574 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 10: I feel like the news does that because they just 575 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 10: beat the crap out of you with everything that's actually 576 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 10: going on in the world. 577 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 2: So they give you a little, a little charging bear. 578 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 2: You sound like Bernie right now. We can't have these stories. 579 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 2: Maybe why so many charging paths. 580 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 5: Maybe I've lost the capacity for joy. Maybe that's happened. 581 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 5: I could be you hate to have that happen. But 582 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 5: so we've talked a lot about AI in particular, quoting 583 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 5: and number of people who say it's going to be 584 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 5: as big to mankind as fire. That's the guy who 585 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 5: runs Google, Others who said it's going to be much 586 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:14,719 Speaker 5: bigger impact on humanity than the Internet. I mean, if 587 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 5: you're old enough to remember pre Internet, holy crap. I mean, 588 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 5: so what does that mean? But nobody exactly knows how 589 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 5: it's going to play out. In this article in the 590 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 5: Washington Post today, I thought was really really interesting one 591 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 5: of the problems. And they don't know how they can 592 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 5: fix us, and I don't think you can. The language 593 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 5: learning models, the LMS, they what they do is they 594 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 5: scour the Internet for information, well, the Russians in particular, 595 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 5: and soon everyone have figured out, well, we'll just put 596 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 5: a whole bunch of wrong information on the Internet, and 597 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 5: the lllms. When they're sucking up all the information, they'll 598 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 5: get all the stuff that's wrong that we want to 599 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 5: put out there, and the AI can't tell the difference 600 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 5: between apparently a New York Times article or a you know, 601 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 5: New York Daily News article, and that's an actual newspaper. 602 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 5: I need to make up a newspaper, but make up 603 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 5: a newspaper that's an article that says positive stuff about Russia, 604 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 5: and AI can't tell the difference. 605 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 2: They just suck it all in. 606 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 5: Earlier this year, when researchers asked ten leading chatbots about 607 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 5: topics targeted by false Russian messaging, such as the claim 608 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 5: that the United States was making bioweapons in Ukraine, a 609 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 5: third of the responses repeated those lies because Moscow has 610 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 5: put them out there and done such a good job, 611 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 5: and nobody knows how they're going to fix this. Most 612 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 5: chat bots struggle with disinformation. We have safeguards in place, 613 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 5: but the problem seems to get worse and worse as 614 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 5: opposed to better and better, the more language learning models 615 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 5: learned to use the Internet. This might be an unfixable problem. 616 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 5: This is so interesting. 617 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: Can you imagine pouring the amount of money and effort 618 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: into AI that's been poured in, and then you run 619 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: into an insurmountable problem like this, although I don't think 620 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: it's necessarily insurmountable. I think you could design some sort 621 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: of algorithm for reliability and have a tiered system of inputs. 622 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 5: Experts, according to the Washington Posts, say the problem is 623 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 5: worsening as opposed to getting better. You combine that with 624 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 5: hallucinations that they don't know where they come from or why, 625 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 5: or if they can be eliminated. And can will AI 626 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 5: be as big as some people claim? I don't know. 627 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: I still say yes, but I'm interested to find out 628 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: along with the rest of you. 629 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,320 Speaker 5: Maybe only in some areas and not in all areas. 630 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 5: Like obviously we've seen with art and music what it 631 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 5: can do, and it's amazing. 632 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: Great hour coming up if you can't stick around, grab 633 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 1: it via podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand Armstrong and 634 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: Getty
