Join us on Now We Consume. Take in the knowledge.

00:00:04.099 --> 00:00:07.259
Take in the laughs. Indulge in the topics with

00:00:07.259 --> 00:00:10.859
us. The Now We Consume podcast will take you

00:00:10.859 --> 00:00:13.160
through the parts of your day you normally dread.

00:00:13.900 --> 00:00:16.579
Why suffer through the existential crisis of

00:00:16.579 --> 00:00:20.140
life alone when you can do it with us? And now

00:00:20.140 --> 00:00:23.160
we consume. This is not meant to be a conspiracy

00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:25.239
episode or podcast, but we may cover some topics

00:00:25.239 --> 00:00:26.480
that dance that line like a toddler dances on

00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:28.800
their mother's last nerve. This podcast is rated

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:33.039
I. For immature audiences only. Welcome back

00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:36.140
to the Now We Consume podcast, where your darkest

00:00:36.140 --> 00:00:38.659
fears are slowly coming true, episode by episode.

00:00:39.219 --> 00:00:45.140
I'm your host, Pip, here with my long -lost co

00:00:45.140 --> 00:00:52.140
-host, Gibbs. Sorry, I got so excited I forgot

00:00:52.140 --> 00:00:55.560
to say something. I found him sliding around

00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:59.100
in a pile of Astroglide. The universe finally

00:00:59.100 --> 00:01:02.539
kind of gave him up for a weekend, and I was

00:01:02.539 --> 00:01:05.159
able to pull him up and clean him off a little

00:01:05.159 --> 00:01:10.219
bit. The fuck is Astroglide? Lube. Are you serious

00:01:10.219 --> 00:01:14.340
right now? No, no, no. We just got a really weird

00:01:14.340 --> 00:01:17.319
glimpse into your sex life, buddy. No, no, no.

00:01:17.739 --> 00:01:22.340
Life has not used lube on me, let me tell you.

00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:26.959
I am a sore man. Well, I know that you have apparently

00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:29.640
forgotten the safe word with the way the universe

00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:33.099
has been tossing you around. No. I don't have

00:01:33.099 --> 00:01:37.120
one anymore. Yeah. I accept my fate. Absolutely.

00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:40.500
So it's good to have you back. Also with us tonight

00:01:40.500 --> 00:01:46.620
is Gibbles. Hi! Say the hi words, Gibbles. Hi.

00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:53.219
So, yeah, this episode is going to be kind of

00:01:53.219 --> 00:01:57.400
a special one for us. We're going to be taking

00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:01.140
a break after this, so we have to say goodbye

00:02:01.140 --> 00:02:05.760
for a little bit. Much as we don't want to, life

00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:10.960
is lifing a little too hard. However, when we

00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:14.520
come back, we're going to be making a few changes.

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:17.840
We're going to be stepping up our production

00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:22.620
game a little bit. And Gibbles over here is going

00:02:22.620 --> 00:02:27.639
to be, hopefully, a more permanent addition to

00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:32.099
the show. So, round of applause for Gibbles for

00:02:32.099 --> 00:02:36.319
joining. Golf clap. The sad part is all of our

00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:38.199
noise cancels when the client can't stop that

00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:40.780
clap. So she, round of applause, you get fucking

00:02:40.780 --> 00:02:46.840
silence. Oh, Jesus. Yeah, I'm looking at my computer

00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:49.479
going, hmm, that didn't get anything. No, there

00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:53.740
was no registration at all. But for those at

00:02:53.740 --> 00:02:57.819
home, yes, we were actually clapping. Yes. So,

00:02:57.819 --> 00:03:01.360
I don't think that's going to pick up on my end,

00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:07.199
unfortunately. In the meantime, this break is

00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:10.840
looking to last probably a couple of months.

00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:15.000
I think we'll try to shoot back probably around

00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:19.020
October, somewhere around there, around Halloween

00:03:19.020 --> 00:03:22.379
maybe -ish. But in the meantime, we're going

00:03:22.379 --> 00:03:24.039
to try to trickle out some short -form stuff

00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:26.979
and keep everybody in the loop on what's going

00:03:26.979 --> 00:03:30.840
on. So definitely, if you haven't yet... Follow

00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.599
us on the social pages. Discord would be the

00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:37.639
best one. But Instagram, the Facebook page is

00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:40.580
there. It's deader than my sex life was when

00:03:40.580 --> 00:03:43.919
I was single. So you're free to jump on there

00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:47.099
and try to interact if you want. But not a whole

00:03:47.099 --> 00:03:52.599
lot going on there. So definitely, as always,

00:03:52.740 --> 00:03:54.360
the place to interact with us is on Discord.

00:03:54.580 --> 00:03:57.500
100 % Discord. Yeah. By far and large, just join

00:03:57.500 --> 00:04:03.039
it. Yeah. Speaking of Discord, I do want to take

00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:06.199
a second and give a quick shout out to our new

00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:12.819
Discord member, Fire. I'm in the wrong mode for

00:04:12.819 --> 00:04:16.579
this, but Fire King. Yeah. He stumbled across

00:04:16.579 --> 00:04:20.019
us thanks to the Mandalay Bay episode and decided

00:04:20.019 --> 00:04:22.759
that we were worth his time to join up. So shout

00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:25.839
out to him. Oh, yeah. He's enjoying the shit

00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:30.569
show, apparently. Welcome aboard! We apologize.

00:04:31.129 --> 00:04:36.750
Aye, matey. Now, getting into tonight's episode.

00:04:39.029 --> 00:04:43.709
We found out about some stuff that absolutely

00:04:43.709 --> 00:04:50.230
blew our minds. As you all know, I have been

00:04:50.230 --> 00:04:54.029
trying to steer the ship a little bit solo. And

00:04:54.029 --> 00:04:56.889
there's not been an episode in the last couple

00:04:56.889 --> 00:04:59.930
of weeks. Gibbles and I were going to do an episode

00:04:59.930 --> 00:05:02.990
last night, and then we got a chance to talk

00:05:02.990 --> 00:05:06.649
to Gibbs. And we kind of got onto this topic

00:05:06.649 --> 00:05:08.910
for tonight and decided to go ahead and hold

00:05:08.910 --> 00:05:12.350
off and do this one tonight, as well as doing

00:05:12.350 --> 00:05:16.009
the send off. Oh, yeah, this got us so riled

00:05:16.009 --> 00:05:18.250
up. We're like, oh, absolutely. We need to talk

00:05:18.250 --> 00:05:25.350
about this one. Yes. What we found out is 1000%.

00:05:26.110 --> 00:05:30.069
Straight out of Black Mirror. If you've not watched

00:05:30.069 --> 00:05:31.990
Black Mirror, you know we've referenced that

00:05:31.990 --> 00:05:38.089
show a lot of times on this podcast. Social credit

00:05:38.089 --> 00:05:42.230
is a thing that here in America is an absolutely

00:05:42.230 --> 00:05:46.610
damning concept. There is a program out there

00:05:46.610 --> 00:05:52.569
called Gage. It is social credit scores for employees

00:05:52.569 --> 00:05:58.199
and employers. Yeah, GageWork .com. GageWork

00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:02.519
.com. Thank you. Yeah. It provides, and this

00:06:02.519 --> 00:06:06.019
is straight off of their website, universal employment

00:06:06.019 --> 00:06:08.839
scores as part of the workforce development platform

00:06:08.839 --> 00:06:12.519
to assess and improve employee performance and

00:06:12.519 --> 00:06:16.279
engagement. The score is a key component of the

00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:19.519
Gage platform, which aims to build a better workforce

00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:22.639
through recognition, feedback, and performance

00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:25.910
management. It's a dynamic metric that reflects

00:06:25.910 --> 00:06:28.769
how well an employee performs, how long they

00:06:28.769 --> 00:06:31.990
stay with a company, and how they leave a job.

00:06:33.829 --> 00:06:37.410
That's a lot of corporate speak to say you're

00:06:37.410 --> 00:06:40.490
getting hosed. Yeah, that means they can literally

00:06:40.490 --> 00:06:43.589
blackball you without blackballing you publicly

00:06:43.589 --> 00:06:47.310
in any kind of easily accessible manner. From

00:06:47.310 --> 00:06:49.389
what I've been able to gather, this is an app

00:06:49.389 --> 00:06:51.629
program that operates kind of in the shadows.

00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:56.399
like some of those private groups on Facebook

00:06:56.399 --> 00:07:01.199
that people join, and they just disseminate information

00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:05.740
about people in the local community. So there's

00:07:05.740 --> 00:07:08.819
a couple of points here that I think people need

00:07:08.819 --> 00:07:13.160
to be aware of. And the issue here is it's a

00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:15.660
platform, and it's really what they're talking

00:07:15.660 --> 00:07:18.279
about is being a whole workplace ecosystem. So

00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:19.560
anybody that works in the corporate world right

00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:20.740
now, they're probably aware of a program called

00:07:20.740 --> 00:07:23.839
ADP. Where basically ADP is a very common thing

00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:25.319
we're used to clock in and out. That's how you

00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:28.019
get your your PTO days or vacation days, how

00:07:28.019 --> 00:07:30.420
you organize basically the back end with a job

00:07:30.420 --> 00:07:33.459
in terms of scheduling. One of the things in

00:07:33.459 --> 00:07:36.240
here, which is in the website, is this talking

00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:38.379
about eventually being somewhat the same space

00:07:38.379 --> 00:07:40.800
with the idea is that there are some companies

00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:42.360
that might have you download that require that

00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:45.040
to get your hours for your scheduling to be able

00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.000
to do your PTO vacation, all that kind of stuff.

00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:49.399
So it's going to eventually become a workplace

00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:54.490
requirement. Number one. Number two, the issue

00:07:54.490 --> 00:07:57.329
I see is because it is a platform. If you actually

00:07:57.329 --> 00:07:59.810
look in some of the information and data, just

00:07:59.810 --> 00:08:01.790
like any other platform when it comes to social

00:08:01.790 --> 00:08:04.649
media or any sort of information sharing platform,

00:08:04.910 --> 00:08:07.870
they're allowed to sell and disseminate that

00:08:07.870 --> 00:08:10.550
information like what Pip already said. So the

00:08:10.550 --> 00:08:13.829
bigger problem is not only can companies that

00:08:13.829 --> 00:08:15.730
use the program get access to the information,

00:08:15.829 --> 00:08:19.240
but even companies that don't. So here's my question

00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.439
to you. What's going to happen to your algorithms

00:08:21.439 --> 00:08:27.279
where if Facebook knows your gauge score or YouTube

00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:29.800
or anything else, how will that change things

00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:33.120
like the ads you see? Will that also change things

00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:34.980
how people treat you in public places? Like,

00:08:35.019 --> 00:08:36.940
for instance, you go with your health insurance

00:08:36.940 --> 00:08:40.139
somewhere and they say, oh, yeah, you don't have

00:08:40.139 --> 00:08:42.320
a very good gauge score. Maybe maybe we shouldn't

00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:43.700
offer you these services because why would we

00:08:43.700 --> 00:08:46.340
spend this money on you? You're only a 300, whereas

00:08:46.340 --> 00:08:49.340
this person's a 750. They even talk about it

00:08:49.340 --> 00:08:52.720
in the advertisement, talk about people getting,

00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:55.379
quote unquote, their preferred positions or hours

00:08:55.379 --> 00:08:59.279
based on their score. Now, granted, the good

00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:02.860
news is in America, we actually do have discrimination

00:09:02.860 --> 00:09:05.080
laws or anti -discrimination laws. So the good

00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:07.460
thing is I see this as one of the easiest lawsuits

00:09:07.460 --> 00:09:09.139
ever. If you apply for something, they tell you

00:09:09.139 --> 00:09:11.620
no, and you can prove that they based it off

00:09:11.620 --> 00:09:14.519
of that gauge score. Obviously, that's going

00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:17.629
to go somewhere. I think the. Anti -Defamation

00:09:17.629 --> 00:09:18.850
League and a few other things. There's going

00:09:18.850 --> 00:09:21.269
to be a few other companies and groups that are

00:09:21.269 --> 00:09:23.809
going to be very much against this. Oh, God,

00:09:23.850 --> 00:09:26.549
yes. In the advertisement for it, they are talking

00:09:26.549 --> 00:09:29.470
about companies that are actively, as of today,

00:09:29.929 --> 00:09:33.370
implementing or using them. Chick -fil -A is

00:09:33.370 --> 00:09:35.330
one of them. And it was Jimmy John's was the

00:09:35.330 --> 00:09:41.149
other one I saw. Go ahead. No, I was going to

00:09:41.149 --> 00:09:42.669
say, I just recommend people go to their website

00:09:42.669 --> 00:09:45.940
and look at and watch the trailer. Particularly,

00:09:46.179 --> 00:09:49.539
by the way, look at, I hate to be this guy, but

00:09:49.539 --> 00:09:51.720
watch the trailer and look at who they give what

00:09:51.720 --> 00:09:55.960
scores. You can tell an AI wrote that one because

00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:58.639
yeesh, the subtle racism on that one, I'm just

00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:02.559
saying. Yeah, if you watch any of the recent

00:10:02.559 --> 00:10:06.240
AI videos, I don't know if it's being made that

00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:09.620
way or if the AI is becoming inherently racist.

00:10:10.139 --> 00:10:15.820
Holy shit. I shouldn't laugh I really shouldn't

00:10:15.820 --> 00:10:18.120
laugh all you can do is laugh because it's like

00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:25.340
oh my god it's so overtly bad right but it's

00:10:25.340 --> 00:10:29.879
so fucking hilarious there are grand wizards

00:10:29.879 --> 00:10:31.340
that would blush at some of the stuff that I've

00:10:31.340 --> 00:10:36.139
seen like I just there are some things I've seen

00:10:36.139 --> 00:10:38.179
even on like TikTok and places I look I'm like

00:10:38.179 --> 00:10:43.970
god Damn! What the fuck? So it's unreal. What

00:10:43.970 --> 00:10:47.129
you were saying about the different rankings

00:10:47.129 --> 00:10:49.629
kind of brings up a lot of very scary points.

00:10:50.929 --> 00:10:53.730
What if they give you different amounts of PTO

00:10:53.730 --> 00:10:56.169
based on your gauge score? What if they give

00:10:56.169 --> 00:10:58.149
you access to different health insurance plans

00:10:58.149 --> 00:11:01.210
based on your gauge score? Different costs associated

00:11:01.210 --> 00:11:05.610
with your health insurance? Different wages based

00:11:05.610 --> 00:11:10.950
on your gauge score? This is opening up a literal

00:11:10.950 --> 00:11:15.289
Pandora's box of all kinds of negative outcomes.

00:11:15.570 --> 00:11:22.090
There is zero positive for this. The episode

00:11:22.090 --> 00:11:27.269
Nosedive on Black Mirror is an extremely well

00:11:27.269 --> 00:11:35.529
-produced visual display of what this can lead

00:11:35.529 --> 00:11:39.600
to. And it's all negative for the employees.

00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:43.600
It's a net positive for the employers. Thank

00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:45.980
you. That's the only positive is for the employers,

00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:48.659
the people who are running and getting the data

00:11:48.659 --> 00:11:52.360
off of this. The Orville also had an episode

00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:59.460
about this. Shit, I think I lost the link. But

00:11:59.460 --> 00:12:04.220
most all major sci -fi franchises have discussed

00:12:04.220 --> 00:12:06.909
this topic. Majority rule. That was the episode.

00:12:07.350 --> 00:12:12.909
Yes. Majority rule. Very well done. Please watch

00:12:12.909 --> 00:12:16.570
some of this stuff because holy shit. Very well

00:12:16.570 --> 00:12:18.409
done. Very well produced. Very well presented.

00:12:18.870 --> 00:12:23.269
They show how out of control any of these social

00:12:23.269 --> 00:12:27.509
credit programs can get. If you don't know much

00:12:27.509 --> 00:12:30.269
about social credit programs, look to China.

00:12:30.970 --> 00:12:34.149
They're using. They've been running. They're

00:12:34.149 --> 00:12:37.470
using social credit systems right now. There's

00:12:37.470 --> 00:12:40.409
one in place that you cannot get into certain

00:12:40.409 --> 00:12:44.450
grocery stores to get your food if you do not

00:12:44.450 --> 00:12:48.529
have a certain social credit score. You cannot

00:12:48.529 --> 00:12:52.929
get into bank accounts or use banking services

00:12:52.929 --> 00:12:55.889
if you do not have a good enough social credit

00:12:55.889 --> 00:13:01.960
score. Renting is a horrible process. This is

00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:04.460
all shit that they want to bring over here because

00:13:04.460 --> 00:13:08.100
it's for the betterment of society. No, it's

00:13:08.100 --> 00:13:13.139
the bottom line. Betterment for the bottom line,

00:13:13.259 --> 00:13:19.000
man. It's a system that is designed to obfuscate

00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:22.740
the responsibilities to for citizens that either

00:13:22.740 --> 00:13:25.340
dissent or fall out of line in any single way.

00:13:25.860 --> 00:13:28.820
And it is going to become a huge problem, particularly

00:13:28.820 --> 00:13:31.940
for Americans, because. I've seen this a lot

00:13:31.940 --> 00:13:33.919
in more left -leaning circles, the idea that

00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:36.139
you have freedom of speech but not freedom of

00:13:36.139 --> 00:13:38.740
consequences. And one of the weird problems we're

00:13:38.740 --> 00:13:41.080
going to start having is people that do not agree

00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:43.659
with certain political opinions are going to

00:13:43.659 --> 00:13:45.860
get downvoted publicly. You're going to have

00:13:45.860 --> 00:13:47.659
people that are now going to be way more private

00:13:47.659 --> 00:13:49.480
about not only their political opinions but really

00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:52.539
almost anything. You are going to have people

00:13:52.539 --> 00:13:54.379
that are going to be far more insular or insulated.

00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:58.600
And it's even going to extend to things like...

00:13:59.370 --> 00:14:01.929
Not only your insurance and where you can work

00:14:01.929 --> 00:14:04.009
and where you can live, but things like you're

00:14:04.009 --> 00:14:05.990
100 % right with like grocery stores or restaurants.

00:14:07.230 --> 00:14:11.190
It's going to become a world where you have to

00:14:11.190 --> 00:14:16.929
be this fake nice person to everyone around you

00:14:16.929 --> 00:14:19.269
for fear of the government coming down on you.

00:14:19.289 --> 00:14:22.230
Because here's the other problem that's not stipulated

00:14:22.230 --> 00:14:26.289
here. What happens if your gauge score is so

00:14:26.289 --> 00:14:29.080
low you can't be employed? let's just say you're

00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:32.799
in an area that's kind of like a fairly wealthy,

00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:36.259
uppity kind of neighborhood. And in that neighborhood,

00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:39.840
a 700 is considered low, let's just say, because

00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:41.440
everyone works for their families, everyone has

00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:43.840
a local business, whatever. A lot of their scores

00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:45.659
are either paid off or not really necessarily

00:14:45.659 --> 00:14:49.179
reflective. What happens is you're going to have

00:14:49.179 --> 00:14:54.179
far more economic flight and gentrification based

00:14:54.179 --> 00:14:57.039
off of your gauge score or social credit score.

00:14:57.710 --> 00:15:00.450
To where if you thought ghettos were bad now,

00:15:00.750 --> 00:15:02.570
just wait till someone's driving through saying,

00:15:02.690 --> 00:15:04.490
oh, yeah, we're going through the 300 section

00:15:04.490 --> 00:15:06.970
of Chicago. Hold your doors tight. Like, it's

00:15:06.970 --> 00:15:10.429
going to fucking happen. And that's sad. But

00:15:10.429 --> 00:15:14.690
weirdly enough, every insurance company, every

00:15:14.690 --> 00:15:16.809
single health care company, all of them are going

00:15:16.809 --> 00:15:18.830
to be on board because they can use that as an

00:15:18.830 --> 00:15:22.370
excuse to not have to uphold their contracts

00:15:22.370 --> 00:15:25.070
or their deals or anything else. Especially,

00:15:25.190 --> 00:15:28.490
here's the big thing. How the fuck are you ever

00:15:28.490 --> 00:15:32.370
going to get a home loan in this economy? Especially

00:15:32.370 --> 00:15:35.169
when they say, sorry, you know, you have the

00:15:35.169 --> 00:15:38.289
credit score of 740. You have a gauge score of

00:15:38.289 --> 00:15:41.210
a 680. And just those two combined, it doesn't

00:15:41.210 --> 00:15:43.710
reach our threshold of 1600 plus. So unfortunately,

00:15:43.970 --> 00:15:48.450
we can't give you this loan. It's going to be

00:15:48.450 --> 00:15:50.529
a fucking nightmare. It already is for people

00:15:50.529 --> 00:15:53.850
in China, but let alone over here where. At least

00:15:53.850 --> 00:15:55.769
in China, as much as it sucks over there, they

00:15:55.769 --> 00:15:59.049
do have a lot more socialized things over there.

00:15:59.169 --> 00:16:00.950
So sure, you might not have a lot, but you can

00:16:00.950 --> 00:16:03.529
still get by. Imagine in America, if you go from

00:16:03.529 --> 00:16:07.190
having a nice job and a house to being denied

00:16:07.190 --> 00:16:09.809
your job, denied being able to get another job

00:16:09.809 --> 00:16:12.970
and be able to deny to rent anywhere. Yeah. And

00:16:12.970 --> 00:16:15.690
that can happen overnight. Yeah. But keep in

00:16:15.690 --> 00:16:18.470
mind that, I mean, as of right now, if you try

00:16:18.470 --> 00:16:20.610
to get a mortgage or a loan or anything like

00:16:20.610 --> 00:16:23.690
that, they still do ask, you know, hey, where

00:16:23.690 --> 00:16:25.230
are you working right now? How long have you

00:16:25.230 --> 00:16:26.669
been working there? You know, if you've only

00:16:26.669 --> 00:16:28.409
been working here for a year, where have you

00:16:28.409 --> 00:16:30.669
worked before? So, I mean, they do ask those

00:16:30.669 --> 00:16:34.750
things, but with the whole addition of a score

00:16:34.750 --> 00:16:39.350
to it, that can be screwed with so hard. You

00:16:39.350 --> 00:16:42.210
know, there's no reason why. You know, beyond,

00:16:42.470 --> 00:16:45.210
OK, I had this job for X amount of years. I had

00:16:45.210 --> 00:16:47.549
that job for X amount of years that you need

00:16:47.549 --> 00:16:50.610
to know. Oh, well, how did you operate at that

00:16:50.610 --> 00:16:54.210
job? Did you work nine to five every day or did

00:16:54.210 --> 00:16:56.429
you work nine to five when you felt like it?

00:16:56.490 --> 00:16:58.330
And the boss had to remind you not to come in

00:16:58.330 --> 00:17:01.789
late. You know, why would that matter to get

00:17:01.789 --> 00:17:03.909
a home loan? But, you know, you do something

00:17:03.909 --> 00:17:06.349
like this, then unfortunately that can start

00:17:06.349 --> 00:17:10.390
falling in line. Yeah, it's a it's a very slippery

00:17:10.390 --> 00:17:13.269
slope. That leads to a whole lot of different

00:17:13.269 --> 00:17:19.730
hills. And it's. Yeah, I can't take no more hills.

00:17:19.809 --> 00:17:24.509
My back is broken enough. Tell your wife to go

00:17:24.509 --> 00:17:29.730
easy on you. I know. Very happy lady. Yes. The

00:17:29.730 --> 00:17:34.009
other thing I think here is there is no measurement

00:17:34.009 --> 00:17:38.789
for it to be accurate. So this is the other problem

00:17:38.789 --> 00:17:41.450
is there will be so many companies. that are

00:17:41.450 --> 00:17:44.410
quote unquote hiring people that they will pay

00:17:44.410 --> 00:17:46.490
them to get their score up because they worked

00:17:46.490 --> 00:17:49.470
for a bad boss who brought down their score.

00:17:49.829 --> 00:17:53.710
And here, here, the biggest problem I see is

00:17:53.710 --> 00:17:55.670
what happens if you're a kid out of high school,

00:17:55.730 --> 00:17:58.690
you get your first job, like an ice cream shop

00:17:58.690 --> 00:18:01.150
or something like that. And the boss is like,

00:18:01.269 --> 00:18:03.029
Hey, I'm looking for someone to work three days

00:18:03.029 --> 00:18:04.849
a week. You say, cool, whatever I get, you know,

00:18:04.869 --> 00:18:07.009
16 or 20 hours a week. And then all of a sudden

00:18:07.009 --> 00:18:09.380
they say, well, I need you for five or six days

00:18:09.380 --> 00:18:10.680
a week for 10 hours a day. And they're like,

00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:13.039
oh, that's what we agreed to. And the boss says,

00:18:13.119 --> 00:18:15.700
well, such a shame, Jimmy. I hate to have to

00:18:15.700 --> 00:18:18.700
give you this down vote and bring you down from

00:18:18.700 --> 00:18:20.799
you start at a 500. Now you're going to be at

00:18:20.799 --> 00:18:23.180
a 380 after one week. It's like, no, no, no.

00:18:23.279 --> 00:18:25.839
I'll take the hours. I'll take the hours. And

00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:27.920
like something we were discussing earlier, what

00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:29.660
happens if you're not an hourly employee, but

00:18:29.660 --> 00:18:32.549
a salary employee? What happens when they can

00:18:32.549 --> 00:18:34.950
start manipulating your hours and your time and

00:18:34.950 --> 00:18:37.609
your agreements and your contracts and hold that

00:18:37.609 --> 00:18:42.049
over you? This is nothing else but indentured

00:18:42.049 --> 00:18:45.049
servitude. This is something that we fought against

00:18:45.049 --> 00:18:51.029
over 100 years ago. I also worry about the people

00:18:51.029 --> 00:18:55.849
who can be taken advantage of. Someone makes

00:18:55.849 --> 00:18:58.829
an advance towards an employee and they get turned

00:18:58.829 --> 00:19:02.359
down. Well, their 600 just went to a 400 real

00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:05.420
quick. Oh, yeah, because that boss got upset

00:19:05.420 --> 00:19:08.799
that they got turned down. Uh -huh. I could see

00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:10.619
a lot of different situations like that coming

00:19:10.619 --> 00:19:14.220
into play, too. The amount of fraud and bribery

00:19:14.220 --> 00:19:16.400
that could be put into play with a system like

00:19:16.400 --> 00:19:21.420
this is sickening. Is there any reason why a

00:19:21.420 --> 00:19:24.460
boss has to upvote you? Here's the other problem.

00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:26.039
Do they have any reason why they would upvote

00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:27.779
you? What if you just do your job? They're like,

00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:29.619
well, but you showed up and did his job. Well,

00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:31.160
you never gave him any upvotes. Well, yeah, because

00:19:31.160 --> 00:19:33.799
he only did his job. Yeah, you only did the bare

00:19:33.799 --> 00:19:37.539
minimum. But that's the problem. For so many

00:19:37.539 --> 00:19:39.680
companies, I think this is a problem of the last

00:19:39.680 --> 00:19:42.680
10 years or so that I've been noticing, is a

00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:45.299
lot of companies, they are expecting you when

00:19:45.299 --> 00:19:49.599
they set up a job description. Really, the job

00:19:49.599 --> 00:19:53.009
description is the bare minimum. And they already

00:19:53.009 --> 00:19:56.349
expect you to do far more than that for either

00:19:56.349 --> 00:19:59.089
nothing additional or minimal in addition. So

00:19:59.089 --> 00:20:01.670
here comes the weird problem of people that are

00:20:01.670 --> 00:20:03.829
going to be stuck in this endless loop where

00:20:03.829 --> 00:20:07.069
unless they are literally the best of the best,

00:20:07.150 --> 00:20:10.130
they're not going to get an upvote. Why? Because

00:20:10.130 --> 00:20:13.029
as an employer, why would I want to upvote you

00:20:13.029 --> 00:20:14.470
when you could just leave me and go somewhere

00:20:14.470 --> 00:20:19.390
else? Why would I? I have zero incentive to tell

00:20:19.390 --> 00:20:22.640
you, hey, good job. Because you might leave.

00:20:22.900 --> 00:20:24.700
So the problem that's going to be is eventually

00:20:24.700 --> 00:20:27.740
you're going to have a large subsect of the population

00:20:27.740 --> 00:20:33.339
that is considered unemployable. That is so low

00:20:33.339 --> 00:20:35.240
that they are permanently, no matter their skill

00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:37.920
set, no matter their intentions or anything else,

00:20:37.940 --> 00:20:42.480
they will be stuck in poverty. Because that's

00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:44.980
how that inevitably always goes. If there's no

00:20:44.980 --> 00:20:49.960
incentive to give an upvote, people won't. Yeah,

00:20:49.980 --> 00:20:54.119
and it becomes this issue where if there's no

00:20:54.119 --> 00:21:00.599
incentive for the positivity, then it's just

00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:04.900
a negative cycle. But what you were talking about,

00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:07.960
that's where that little clause, other duties

00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:13.740
as required, always gets everybody. That's where

00:21:13.740 --> 00:21:17.160
they describe the job they want done, but they

00:21:17.160 --> 00:21:19.710
just leave it open to where, oh, we can, We can

00:21:19.710 --> 00:21:21.930
take advantage of them by adding this clause

00:21:21.930 --> 00:21:25.609
in here. So other duties as required is a pretty

00:21:25.609 --> 00:21:29.450
safe bet. Because they then require you to do

00:21:29.450 --> 00:21:31.589
this duty and they can require you to do that

00:21:31.589 --> 00:21:36.089
duty. Oh, and if you refuse and there goes your

00:21:36.089 --> 00:21:40.990
score. Exactly. And I guess this other question

00:21:40.990 --> 00:21:42.309
is going to become what's going to happen to

00:21:42.309 --> 00:21:45.210
our medical system? Because here's the biggest

00:21:45.210 --> 00:21:48.490
problem I see, too, is. What happens if you're

00:21:48.490 --> 00:21:52.589
stuck in just perpetual hell where you can't

00:21:52.589 --> 00:21:55.869
advance, you can't do anything? And I think we

00:21:55.869 --> 00:21:59.490
all know in the medical system, nobody's fucking

00:21:59.490 --> 00:22:02.930
happy. Nobody wants to be here. Nobody's liking

00:22:02.930 --> 00:22:05.049
the way this is now. There's so many industries

00:22:05.049 --> 00:22:06.769
I could see to where, like, who the hell is going

00:22:06.769 --> 00:22:10.089
to give you an upvote or a like or a positive?

00:22:10.509 --> 00:22:13.690
Hey, no, especially this is employer based only.

00:22:13.769 --> 00:22:15.650
The idea is this is not just for people walking

00:22:15.650 --> 00:22:18.099
around. This is an employer to employee thing.

00:22:18.440 --> 00:22:21.619
At least like in Black Mirror or in Orville and

00:22:21.619 --> 00:22:22.880
a few other things, at least with people just

00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:26.619
in general giving like an upvote or a like, whereas

00:22:26.619 --> 00:22:28.119
that's a little bit more like the Chinese system

00:22:28.119 --> 00:22:30.259
where it is a little bit more open -ended. But

00:22:30.259 --> 00:22:32.579
here it's literally they're doing it for employers

00:22:32.579 --> 00:22:34.839
and employees. So it's going to be nothing but

00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:38.039
negative. You realize there will become like

00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:41.259
brokers. Yeah. There will become like dealers.

00:22:42.400 --> 00:22:44.359
There will be shell companies set up with the

00:22:44.359 --> 00:22:47.480
idea of, hey, I employ you, you give me $500

00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:49.859
a week, and every week I'll give you a like,

00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:51.559
and that way in six months you'll be like plus

00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:57.519
$800, plus $900. Exactly. It'll just be a black

00:22:57.519 --> 00:23:00.640
market almost immediately because somebody's

00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:03.059
going to catch wind of this. Somebody's going

00:23:03.059 --> 00:23:05.180
to catch wind of it and see the writing on the

00:23:05.180 --> 00:23:08.400
wall and immediately open up a company for that.

00:23:08.819 --> 00:23:10.240
Honestly, that's the first thing I would do,

00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:13.220
and good luck suing me. Because how can you sue

00:23:13.220 --> 00:23:15.359
me? What if that's my job? What if that's literally

00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:19.579
my job? It's a social credit score company. And

00:23:19.579 --> 00:23:23.539
the idea is you gain a membership and you work

00:23:23.539 --> 00:23:26.700
for me as an employee. And then for working for

00:23:26.700 --> 00:23:28.460
me as an employee as part of that conditional

00:23:28.460 --> 00:23:31.240
membership is you get a thumbs up every week.

00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:35.220
Fucking come after me. Nothing you can do about

00:23:35.220 --> 00:23:39.440
it. Yep. That's a legal job. It's legal. As long

00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:41.460
as I show up and do whatever you're requiring.

00:23:42.329 --> 00:23:44.710
exactly here we go and just you get a bunch of

00:23:44.710 --> 00:23:48.009
friends together applying to the app say it's

00:23:48.009 --> 00:23:50.970
a legit business you know everybody gets paid

00:23:50.970 --> 00:23:53.210
one dollar a week the amount of job creation

00:23:53.210 --> 00:23:56.710
that would stem from that dude that would fuck

00:23:56.710 --> 00:23:58.589
up the u .s economy like all of a sudden like

00:23:58.589 --> 00:24:02.109
wow in q3 there's been 97 million jobs out of

00:24:02.109 --> 00:24:05.089
nowhere what's happening now everybody's giving

00:24:05.089 --> 00:24:08.829
each other likes No, and that's always the problem

00:24:08.829 --> 00:24:10.970
with that kind of system. They would have to

00:24:10.970 --> 00:24:14.509
do like a whole new, instead of unemployment

00:24:14.509 --> 00:24:16.490
numbers, they would have to do like a whole new

00:24:16.490 --> 00:24:20.450
like factor numbers or dislike factor numbers,

00:24:20.670 --> 00:24:23.750
you know? Oh, yeah. You're going to have, okay,

00:24:23.849 --> 00:24:26.190
what's the current average of gauge scores this

00:24:26.190 --> 00:24:30.829
week? Oh, everybody's down 400 points. Oh, that's

00:24:30.829 --> 00:24:35.150
not good. You know, I have likened a social credit

00:24:35.150 --> 00:24:44.230
system like this. as tied for my dystopian hell

00:24:44.230 --> 00:24:47.670
from Black Mirror. The other one being the robot

00:24:47.670 --> 00:24:51.589
dogs being used as sentries and other seek and

00:24:51.589 --> 00:24:56.430
destroy kind of situations. Metalhead was the

00:24:56.430 --> 00:24:59.950
episode of Black Mirror where they used the robot

00:24:59.950 --> 00:25:02.109
dogs that we have out, like the one that has

00:25:02.109 --> 00:25:05.200
the flamethrower on it. I don't know if you saw

00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:07.140
that one or not. It's a great thing. I want one

00:25:07.140 --> 00:25:12.700
to patrol my yard. Those things are kind of cool,

00:25:12.759 --> 00:25:15.779
but learn to put the wrong AI. Yes, they're legal

00:25:15.779 --> 00:25:19.000
to own. Really? Yes, in all 50 states because

00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:21.720
it's not a flamethrower. How much are they? Like

00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:26.359
four grand, I think. That's cheaper than a lot

00:25:26.359 --> 00:25:31.900
of dogs. Some breeds, yeah. Wow. Yeah, but it's

00:25:31.900 --> 00:25:34.759
not a flamethrower, so it's legal to own. Exactly.

00:25:34.839 --> 00:25:37.940
But can I replace it with something else? If

00:25:37.940 --> 00:25:43.660
you're smart enough, yes. Ah. Put a taser on

00:25:43.660 --> 00:25:47.920
it. I have one. Put a taser on it and call it

00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:52.359
taser face. There you go. Come here, Sparky.

00:25:53.799 --> 00:25:56.240
Yes. It's a whole new meaning to that, doesn't

00:25:56.240 --> 00:26:01.920
it? Yes, sir. Oh, my God. But no, I started kind

00:26:01.920 --> 00:26:05.119
of getting this thought of. The organ harvesting

00:26:05.119 --> 00:26:10.240
market would probably see an uptick because I

00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:12.839
think so many people would be driven to the brink.

00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:20.039
From. Here's a question. You're bringing this

00:26:20.039 --> 00:26:22.480
up and I never thought about this. What happens

00:26:22.480 --> 00:26:24.319
if they see someone in the hospital and they

00:26:24.319 --> 00:26:29.420
go, oh, he's a 197. Do we even resuscitate him?

00:26:29.539 --> 00:26:32.019
Right. Really? Really? Does he really need those

00:26:32.019 --> 00:26:35.519
organs? Really? Yeah. Like, you know, a social

00:26:35.519 --> 00:26:38.240
credit score that low is going to warrant zero

00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:42.279
care, zero effort. And here's a genuine question

00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:44.920
for you. I know you were in law enforcement and

00:26:44.920 --> 00:26:47.599
I know what the answer is supposed to be, but

00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:49.220
I also know what the answer I think is going

00:26:49.220 --> 00:26:52.400
to be. If you pull someone over and you run their

00:26:52.400 --> 00:26:55.000
number and you say, oof, out of a thousand, they

00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:59.039
are a 91. Are you treating that situation differently

00:26:59.039 --> 00:27:02.569
than if someone's like an eat 74? I think we

00:27:02.569 --> 00:27:04.890
all know the answer is a yes. Even though it's

00:27:04.890 --> 00:27:07.950
not supposed to be on paper, it's going to be

00:27:07.950 --> 00:27:11.329
a little bit different. Yeah, unfortunately,

00:27:11.809 --> 00:27:16.569
that would be the case. Unfortunately. Like you

00:27:16.569 --> 00:27:19.950
said, is it supposed to be that way? You're supposed

00:27:19.950 --> 00:27:23.890
to look at it from a perspective of, did they

00:27:23.890 --> 00:27:25.809
break the law or not? It doesn't matter who they

00:27:25.809 --> 00:27:29.369
are, what they look like, age, sex, any of that.

00:27:29.609 --> 00:27:32.859
It should be as simple as, You know, did they

00:27:32.859 --> 00:27:35.779
break the law? Did they violate a, you know,

00:27:35.799 --> 00:27:40.180
you know, something that can cause a citation,

00:27:40.420 --> 00:27:44.279
whatever. But yeah, the score and you start pulling

00:27:44.279 --> 00:27:46.759
that in and all of a sudden we'd have access

00:27:46.759 --> 00:27:52.319
to that. Oh, the mess you would create. Can you

00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:57.559
imagine the quality of legal defense they would

00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:02.259
be entitled to because of that score? This guy's

00:28:02.259 --> 00:28:06.579
only a 150. Give him Joe. He's just out of law

00:28:06.579 --> 00:28:14.160
school. You get public defender number 987. Last

00:28:14.160 --> 00:28:16.819
in the grade in 1983 has not won a single case

00:28:16.819 --> 00:28:19.859
in 25 years. Good luck and may God have mercy

00:28:19.859 --> 00:28:26.039
on your soul. I award you no points and may God

00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:31.490
have mercy on your soul. No, exactly. But that's

00:28:31.490 --> 00:28:34.130
what's kind of scary, though. I know we're joking

00:28:34.130 --> 00:28:38.150
about it, but this is something that is literally

00:28:38.150 --> 00:28:40.349
around the corner, because I hate to say it,

00:28:40.369 --> 00:28:43.089
as it is, the credit score system that we have

00:28:43.089 --> 00:28:46.210
currently is already a fucking sham. Uh -huh.

00:28:46.349 --> 00:28:49.690
Oh, it's ridiculous. It's absolutely ridiculous.

00:28:49.869 --> 00:28:52.329
The fact that, oh, I got a car loan, I got a

00:28:52.329 --> 00:28:54.170
mortgage, I got all this other stuff, but if

00:28:54.170 --> 00:28:56.869
I pay the car loan off, guess what happens? Now

00:28:56.869 --> 00:28:59.950
your credit score goes down. Oh, yeah, that's

00:28:59.950 --> 00:29:02.170
a negative thing. Oh, well, you no longer have

00:29:02.170 --> 00:29:05.369
that loan on your name for the credit utilization.

00:29:05.569 --> 00:29:09.150
Well, I was always told growing up that if you

00:29:09.150 --> 00:29:11.529
take a loan out, it's a good thing to pay off

00:29:11.529 --> 00:29:15.309
your loan. That at one time, I understood it

00:29:15.309 --> 00:29:18.150
from what I was taught in high school. You pay

00:29:18.150 --> 00:29:20.549
off the loan. That's good for your credit history.

00:29:20.829 --> 00:29:23.750
I don't know when all of a sudden you pay off

00:29:23.750 --> 00:29:26.910
a car loan. It makes your credit go negative.

00:29:27.089 --> 00:29:31.430
I don't get that. Why is it that I need to keep

00:29:31.430 --> 00:29:35.390
a car loan going just so that my credit stays

00:29:35.390 --> 00:29:38.970
up? That makes zero sense. Oh, and if you have

00:29:38.970 --> 00:29:44.329
a low credit score, certain jobs that I hear

00:29:44.329 --> 00:29:47.950
claims of, oh, money and stuff like that, that

00:29:47.950 --> 00:29:50.109
credit score could keep you from getting a job

00:29:50.109 --> 00:29:58.309
anyways. So about the whole loan thing, that

00:29:58.309 --> 00:30:01.490
was a long, long, long time ago that you were

00:30:01.490 --> 00:30:06.349
taught that. Yeah, I know it was. Because I was

00:30:06.349 --> 00:30:10.349
taught the same thing. Thank you for that. I'm

00:30:10.349 --> 00:30:14.910
aware. I'm old. I know. I'm there with you. But

00:30:14.910 --> 00:30:18.349
it is insane that we have a system that's based

00:30:18.349 --> 00:30:23.000
on habitual overspending. Yes. That's based on

00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:25.299
entrapment. So like, for example, so the issue

00:30:25.299 --> 00:30:29.180
I had is I recently got a newer car. And mind

00:30:29.180 --> 00:30:32.180
you, in my life, I have never been in debt. I've

00:30:32.180 --> 00:30:35.960
always had money put aside. And I own a house

00:30:35.960 --> 00:30:37.880
that's worth a good chunk of money outright.

00:30:38.779 --> 00:30:40.700
So I have everything. And I had a good credit

00:30:40.700 --> 00:30:42.180
score. I think it was like 790 or something.

00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:47.880
7790 when I applied. I was denied. the Toyota

00:30:47.880 --> 00:30:50.380
financing from Toyota, because that would have

00:30:50.380 --> 00:30:53.299
been my first loan. And I did not have enough

00:30:53.299 --> 00:30:56.140
alone history, even though I have a credit card

00:30:56.140 --> 00:30:59.539
history of 14 years. They said, Nope, you've

00:30:59.539 --> 00:31:01.920
never taken out auto loan before. So we cannot

00:31:01.920 --> 00:31:04.279
honor this 5 .4%. So we have to start for a few

00:31:04.279 --> 00:31:08.200
months at 9%. Yeah. Which don't remember. I can

00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:09.400
still afford it. It's not, it's not the end of

00:31:09.400 --> 00:31:11.259
the world, but it pissed me off. So I'm sitting

00:31:11.259 --> 00:31:14.039
there thinking I've done everything right. You

00:31:14.039 --> 00:31:18.809
little fricking. And, I still have to bend over

00:31:18.809 --> 00:31:20.430
and take it, even though I'm doing it right,

00:31:20.490 --> 00:31:22.289
doing everything correctly, but it doesn't fucking

00:31:22.289 --> 00:31:24.930
matter. So that's, but the same thing I think

00:31:24.930 --> 00:31:27.089
will happen with the social credit score where

00:31:27.089 --> 00:31:30.990
you could go to your job, spend the extra money,

00:31:31.049 --> 00:31:34.130
the extra time, do everything right. And your

00:31:34.130 --> 00:31:37.190
boss doesn't have to give you a like, and then

00:31:37.190 --> 00:31:40.750
eventually that will come back to bite you. Eventually

00:31:40.750 --> 00:31:44.390
you'll never get the promotion or yeah. Yeah.

00:31:44.470 --> 00:31:47.829
Sorry. So you know how in North Korea, if you

00:31:47.829 --> 00:31:51.329
commit a crime, your family can pay the price?

00:31:51.809 --> 00:31:55.789
What if they institute a system like that where

00:31:55.789 --> 00:32:00.410
if you do a crime, your children, your grandchildren

00:32:00.410 --> 00:32:06.230
take the social credit penalty? Well, you know

00:32:06.230 --> 00:32:08.009
what I feel like it would be? It might be less

00:32:08.009 --> 00:32:09.329
of the family. That'd be enough to give me a

00:32:09.329 --> 00:32:12.230
coronary. You know what I feel like would happen

00:32:12.230 --> 00:32:13.789
though? It would be the household. So it wouldn't

00:32:13.789 --> 00:32:15.490
necessarily be family members, but I feel like

00:32:15.490 --> 00:32:18.009
the house in general, the household, especially

00:32:18.009 --> 00:32:20.769
if you are considered head of house, that might

00:32:20.769 --> 00:32:22.890
be like a generic social credit score for the

00:32:22.890 --> 00:32:26.930
house. Okay, so we're going down the Klingon

00:32:26.930 --> 00:32:35.529
path. I got you. Yes. But I don't see how this

00:32:35.529 --> 00:32:37.029
wouldn't go that way, though, at some point.

00:32:39.210 --> 00:32:43.390
Yeah. You know? And especially, by the way, this

00:32:43.390 --> 00:32:45.589
is not just likes and dislikes, too, on that

00:32:45.589 --> 00:32:47.849
gauge score. They can leave comments and leave

00:32:47.849 --> 00:32:52.589
other stuff. Oh, yeah. It's wide open. Here's

00:32:52.589 --> 00:32:55.630
the other half of this. What happens if you're

00:32:55.630 --> 00:32:59.309
in a male -dominated industry like I am and we

00:32:59.309 --> 00:33:01.190
like to joke around and have some fun and make

00:33:01.190 --> 00:33:05.309
some jokes and say some things and my boss comes

00:33:05.309 --> 00:33:07.230
in and catches the wrong end of a conversation?

00:33:08.829 --> 00:33:13.000
I'm fucked. Sometimes there's no way of explaining

00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:15.259
what I just said without the full context. Or

00:33:15.259 --> 00:33:18.579
because I work with mechanics, you're going to

00:33:18.579 --> 00:33:22.859
hear some wild shit. So what happens? God forbid,

00:33:23.019 --> 00:33:25.539
by the way, if this score ever enters the military

00:33:25.539 --> 00:33:27.720
or anything else like that, God fucking bid.

00:33:28.140 --> 00:33:33.279
But everybody's fucked. Everybody. I was going

00:33:33.279 --> 00:33:37.900
to say, you have some wild conversations. What

00:33:37.900 --> 00:33:42.180
do you think about half the shit I say? I'm assuming

00:33:42.180 --> 00:33:43.859
you're just talking to a wall half the time,

00:33:43.960 --> 00:33:45.200
because if you were talking to a person, they

00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:47.140
need therapy. Especially if they're eight or

00:33:47.140 --> 00:33:51.039
ten hours a day with you. Jesus Christ. You were

00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:52.799
questioning our friendship. Until a crazy person

00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:56.259
tells you you're crazy, so. Yeah. Dude, the one

00:33:56.259 --> 00:33:59.000
time we hung out in person when we met up last

00:33:59.000 --> 00:34:02.359
year, my face hurt for three days straight. From

00:34:02.359 --> 00:34:05.059
just laughing and disgust. So let alone working

00:34:05.059 --> 00:34:08.239
with you every day. Yeah, the walls need therapy.

00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:10.320
I don't know if there's a therapist for drywall,

00:34:10.460 --> 00:34:18.559
but you need to find one. Oh, yes. Good times.

00:34:20.360 --> 00:34:23.440
So then I guess here's the other twist. That

00:34:23.440 --> 00:34:25.260
means we could downvote all of our politicians

00:34:25.260 --> 00:34:28.659
into oblivion. I bet you they'll have immunity

00:34:28.659 --> 00:34:31.119
if they do this. Yeah, they would have immunity.

00:34:31.340 --> 00:34:32.559
I'm just going to sit there. All you're just

00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:34.480
going to hear is, Nancy Pelosi's been downvoted

00:34:34.480 --> 00:34:36.780
by one. Nancy Pelosi's been downvoted by one.

00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:40.039
Endlessly. No. Have you seen that fucking video

00:34:40.039 --> 00:34:42.420
making the rounds lately with the lizard? Lizard.

00:34:42.559 --> 00:34:45.900
Lizard. Lizard. Lizard. That's all the downvotes.

00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:48.539
That's all they would hear all day. Downvote,

00:34:48.579 --> 00:34:50.539
downvote, downvote. You would end up turning

00:34:50.539 --> 00:34:52.659
into the dude from World of Warcraft just leaning

00:34:52.659 --> 00:34:59.079
back. Down, down, down, down, down. You got the

00:34:59.079 --> 00:35:02.239
freaking carpal tunnel wristband on, you know,

00:35:02.239 --> 00:35:06.380
sipping off your hat. Never getting up because

00:35:06.380 --> 00:35:09.039
you got the toilet built into the chair and you're

00:35:09.039 --> 00:35:12.579
just downvoting Nancy Pelosi all day. Bathroom!

00:35:13.139 --> 00:35:19.320
Bathroom! Ma 'am, I'm having a Nancy Pelosi.

00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:22.460
Help me. But the sad part is our group of friends,

00:35:22.500 --> 00:35:25.179
though, we would actually probably spend a lot

00:35:25.179 --> 00:35:27.739
of time downvoting every single politician. Yeah.

00:35:28.159 --> 00:35:31.019
To where basically all of them but Rand Paul

00:35:31.019 --> 00:35:34.019
would be at, like, negatives. Like, they wouldn't

00:35:34.019 --> 00:35:35.519
even be able to get, like, a McDonald's sandwich.

00:35:35.519 --> 00:35:38.639
Rand Paul and maybe RFK all hail the brain worm.

00:35:40.760 --> 00:35:43.179
He's allowed to have a two because, you know,

00:35:43.199 --> 00:35:45.260
he has a disability, so, like, it's fine. Oh,

00:35:45.260 --> 00:35:50.510
my God. But, dude, that's, I think, going to

00:35:50.510 --> 00:35:51.849
be the biggest thing, too, is if that becomes

00:35:51.849 --> 00:35:53.809
open to the public or, like, an open source thing.

00:35:54.429 --> 00:35:57.190
Or especially, here's the other part I was thinking

00:35:57.190 --> 00:36:00.369
about, too. What happens if you're reporting

00:36:00.369 --> 00:36:03.150
things that are either HIPAA -related and medical

00:36:03.150 --> 00:36:05.769
or, like, different confidential things that

00:36:05.769 --> 00:36:09.550
happen? This could get serious really quickly

00:36:09.550 --> 00:36:14.010
in terms of people's privacy. Well, and that's

00:36:14.010 --> 00:36:15.710
why I don't think it'll work anyways in the end,

00:36:15.730 --> 00:36:18.809
because... Privacy laws. Well, I think for this

00:36:18.809 --> 00:36:20.730
to work and take off, the privacy laws will probably

00:36:20.730 --> 00:36:24.329
go away. But also, what happens when your vote

00:36:24.329 --> 00:36:29.730
history becomes public record? So that's I wonder

00:36:29.730 --> 00:36:31.070
if that's the other thing, too. I wonder if somebody

00:36:31.070 --> 00:36:33.010
reports you'd be like this person voted for blank

00:36:33.010 --> 00:36:35.710
and they give them a down. Oh, yeah. Just immediately

00:36:35.710 --> 00:36:43.159
sue them. Oh, yeah. Yeah, for that software to

00:36:43.159 --> 00:36:45.119
really work the way I think they want it to,

00:36:45.159 --> 00:36:47.400
because if you really read what they said on

00:36:47.400 --> 00:36:53.099
that website, it's just disturbing the things

00:36:53.099 --> 00:36:56.500
that they're wanting to do. It opens up so many

00:36:56.500 --> 00:37:01.480
potentialities. Now, can I segue this into the

00:37:01.480 --> 00:37:03.639
part two topic here that I think we need to discuss

00:37:03.639 --> 00:37:06.300
that has to do with this? Do it. Because I know

00:37:06.300 --> 00:37:07.840
I sent you a text about this. I didn't discuss

00:37:07.840 --> 00:37:10.320
it yet, but I want to see the reaction. Do it.

00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:13.500
Send it. I don't know if everyone in chat or

00:37:13.500 --> 00:37:18.079
in everyone at home knows this. In England, they

00:37:18.079 --> 00:37:21.400
just enabled over the weekend that all explicit

00:37:21.400 --> 00:37:25.320
content has to be accessed via an ID or face

00:37:25.320 --> 00:37:28.219
verification with a scan and everything else

00:37:28.219 --> 00:37:29.840
like that. Like they have to basically prove

00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:31.599
that you're the person you say who you are for

00:37:31.599 --> 00:37:36.070
all explicit content on the Internet. Now, with

00:37:36.070 --> 00:37:45.829
this social credit score, plus that, you're going

00:37:45.829 --> 00:37:50.570
to see a lot of celebrities or famous people's

00:37:50.570 --> 00:37:55.730
X -rated histories becoming public. Disappearing.

00:37:56.309 --> 00:37:58.070
Oh, yeah. And becoming widely available. Well,

00:37:58.070 --> 00:38:00.449
that's okay. But also... They're using Norman

00:38:00.449 --> 00:38:06.449
Remus to get past the porn. ID check, so. Well,

00:38:06.489 --> 00:38:08.469
here's the other, here's the catch -22 of that,

00:38:08.610 --> 00:38:11.090
is there are people that have been using the

00:38:11.090 --> 00:38:13.010
game Death Stranding and a few other ones that

00:38:13.010 --> 00:38:15.610
have actual facial features and everything, things

00:38:15.610 --> 00:38:18.409
you can manipulate to get past. Yeah. That's

00:38:18.409 --> 00:38:20.349
what I was just referencing with Norman Remus,

00:38:20.409 --> 00:38:23.650
because he's the main character. So. Or main

00:38:23.650 --> 00:38:27.150
protagonist. I guess my second part of this question

00:38:27.150 --> 00:38:29.650
was going to be, not only does this system not

00:38:29.650 --> 00:38:34.920
work, and not only is it very invasive, but How

00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:38.480
do you know that these scores or any of this

00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:39.980
information is going to be actually relevant

00:38:39.980 --> 00:38:42.380
to you in terms of it being actually you? If

00:38:42.380 --> 00:38:48.639
you thought before identity theft was bad, imagine

00:38:48.639 --> 00:38:53.099
the landslide that would happen if you got not

00:38:53.099 --> 00:38:56.440
only your ID and your private stuff posted online

00:38:56.440 --> 00:38:58.500
because you had to do age verification and everything

00:38:58.500 --> 00:39:02.800
else on that, but your social credit was wrongfully...

00:39:03.489 --> 00:39:06.010
downvoted or terminated or something else because

00:39:06.010 --> 00:39:09.929
that wasn't actually you. Will we see a new age

00:39:09.929 --> 00:39:13.289
of piracy where someone will find your likeness,

00:39:13.289 --> 00:39:14.769
your information? Because I don't know if you

00:39:14.769 --> 00:39:17.030
guys know this, but actually right now, it's

00:39:17.030 --> 00:39:20.030
illegal on Grok and ChatGBT4 and everything else

00:39:20.030 --> 00:39:22.929
to create an ID, like a federal ID or a license.

00:39:23.530 --> 00:39:26.210
But if you have it do it a certain way, you can

00:39:26.210 --> 00:39:28.809
get around those limitations. So the question

00:39:28.809 --> 00:39:32.380
is... How long is it going to be until people

00:39:32.380 --> 00:39:35.079
are using fake IDs or IDs of other people to

00:39:35.079 --> 00:39:37.760
apply for jobs to then tank their credit score

00:39:37.760 --> 00:39:40.420
and then say that's not me and then look up weird

00:39:40.420 --> 00:39:43.079
stuff on the Internet? If you combine all this

00:39:43.079 --> 00:39:46.820
shit, the age of piracy is upon us, my friends.

00:39:47.119 --> 00:39:50.179
It is more of a digital landscape now. But no,

00:39:50.340 --> 00:39:53.340
it's about to be a renaissance of piracy is what

00:39:53.340 --> 00:40:01.690
it is. Absolutely. Can we bring back the feathered

00:40:01.690 --> 00:40:07.269
hats and the hook hands? People are going to

00:40:07.269 --> 00:40:10.409
have to get face tattoos just to prove and keep

00:40:10.409 --> 00:40:12.690
themselves unique. You know what's going to be

00:40:12.690 --> 00:40:14.909
weird? When everyone has to put a fucking barcode

00:40:14.909 --> 00:40:19.329
on their forehead. Oh, Jesus. It's the mark of

00:40:19.329 --> 00:40:21.630
the beast! Isn't that one of the things like

00:40:21.630 --> 00:40:24.070
Christiania was like talking about the mark of

00:40:24.070 --> 00:40:27.090
the beast or some weird crap like that? Yep.

00:40:28.569 --> 00:40:30.949
Well, this is kind of what I'm not like directly

00:40:30.949 --> 00:40:33.929
alluding to, but we are eventually going to go

00:40:33.929 --> 00:40:38.530
so far towards this censorship shit that it's

00:40:38.530 --> 00:40:41.010
going to come back around and have to be all

00:40:41.010 --> 00:40:43.949
of it negated. Because I feel like the way we're

00:40:43.949 --> 00:40:45.909
going, you're going to go back to a point to

00:40:45.909 --> 00:40:48.170
where it's going to be a paper document only

00:40:48.170 --> 00:40:50.309
system at some point. We're eventually going

00:40:50.309 --> 00:40:51.710
to have to say, you know what? No more digital,

00:40:51.789 --> 00:40:54.190
no more nothing. Yep. Full circle. Involved with

00:40:54.190 --> 00:40:56.659
this. Because it's going to be so easy to manipulate

00:40:56.659 --> 00:41:01.599
with AI. So easy. Are you kidding me? Especially,

00:41:02.019 --> 00:41:04.400
I don't know if you guys know, once AI figures

00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:07.280
out... Oh, sorry, you go. Oh, sorry. I was going

00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:09.159
to say, until they get the whole quantum computer

00:41:09.159 --> 00:41:12.039
stuff standardized, yeah, AI could totally mess

00:41:12.039 --> 00:41:14.960
with everything. Oh, yeah. And especially once

00:41:14.960 --> 00:41:17.019
AI figures out how to generate barcodes, that's

00:41:17.019 --> 00:41:19.360
one of the big things. Once they get the barcodes

00:41:19.360 --> 00:41:22.690
right on IDs and stuff like that... That's all

00:41:22.690 --> 00:41:24.389
the verification. They can make a real ID and

00:41:24.389 --> 00:41:30.489
do everything. You can be anybody. There is no

00:41:30.489 --> 00:41:33.610
limitation. Especially if you're one of those

00:41:33.610 --> 00:41:37.170
people that's very generic looking. You're one

00:41:37.170 --> 00:41:38.730
of those people that's just like, wow, there's

00:41:38.730 --> 00:41:42.230
like 97 of you I met in my life. Those people

00:41:42.230 --> 00:41:46.590
are going to be fucking dangerous. So, I don't

00:41:46.590 --> 00:41:48.070
know. It's just going to be a wild, wild west.

00:41:51.319 --> 00:41:54.119
That's terrifying. Don't be watching explicit

00:41:54.119 --> 00:41:57.019
content and giving away your ID because people

00:41:57.019 --> 00:41:59.019
be watching, people be knowing. Don't do that.

00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:01.340
You know, that's going to take us back to the

00:42:01.340 --> 00:42:06.320
days of downloading the stuff. Yeah, now hard

00:42:06.320 --> 00:42:08.659
drive prices are going to go up again. Right?

00:42:08.760 --> 00:42:12.039
They've been so cheap for so long. Buy them now

00:42:12.039 --> 00:42:14.940
and stock up. But the difference will be is you

00:42:14.940 --> 00:42:18.619
won't be stuck with, you know, what, a megabyte

00:42:18.619 --> 00:42:24.050
a second? you know 56k modem speeds and all that

00:42:24.050 --> 00:42:26.289
when you sit there and wait 20 minutes for a

00:42:26.289 --> 00:42:30.550
picture to download just be like and you get

00:42:30.550 --> 00:42:33.809
excited i think i i think i see a nipple i think

00:42:33.809 --> 00:42:36.409
i see oh boy here comes the other question are

00:42:36.409 --> 00:42:37.989
they are the government is the government going

00:42:37.989 --> 00:42:42.309
to go after vpn companies because in england

00:42:42.309 --> 00:42:44.969
from what i saw because of all these laws people

00:42:44.969 --> 00:42:48.369
are signing up to vpns by the millions Because,

00:42:48.369 --> 00:42:50.510
you know, God forbid you take away people's pornography,

00:42:50.750 --> 00:42:54.110
you know. Speaking of taking away porn, I don't

00:42:54.110 --> 00:42:57.469
know how true this is. I just saw something today

00:42:57.469 --> 00:43:01.150
and it may have been an older video. Something

00:43:01.150 --> 00:43:05.230
about a bill being introduced to ban all porn

00:43:05.230 --> 00:43:10.269
in the U .S. Yeah, there's some crazy Republican

00:43:10.269 --> 00:43:14.309
moron who's decided that it's going to be a hill

00:43:14.309 --> 00:43:17.269
he's going to die on. I don't know if he's doing

00:43:17.269 --> 00:43:19.469
it as a spoof or if he's just doing it because

00:43:19.469 --> 00:43:25.969
he's letting religion run his ethics. But I did

00:43:25.969 --> 00:43:28.409
see that. There's a way to go about it, and I

00:43:28.409 --> 00:43:30.510
feel like in typical Republican fashion, they

00:43:30.510 --> 00:43:33.230
have no idea about how to message and make that

00:43:33.230 --> 00:43:35.110
an understandable thing. It's one thing if they

00:43:35.110 --> 00:43:38.630
said, hey, maybe we got to make it so children

00:43:38.630 --> 00:43:41.909
can't access this stuff. And that I feel like

00:43:41.909 --> 00:43:43.469
is kind of where the line is. But if you're a

00:43:43.469 --> 00:43:47.219
consenting adult, That that's your choice. It's

00:43:47.219 --> 00:43:48.880
no different than walking to a strip club or

00:43:48.880 --> 00:43:50.639
going to an explosive shop or anything else like

00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:53.900
that. However, conversely, if they want kids

00:43:53.900 --> 00:43:56.559
to stop accessing it, make there be penalties

00:43:56.559 --> 00:43:58.980
for kids accessing that, that the parents got

00:43:58.980 --> 00:44:02.980
to fucking pay for. Give the law some teeth on

00:44:02.980 --> 00:44:05.159
that one. Cause not for nothing. The, again,

00:44:05.260 --> 00:44:07.840
I, I cannot believe the shit that I would hear

00:44:07.840 --> 00:44:10.460
from like, cause I have a little sister and some

00:44:10.460 --> 00:44:12.380
of her friends, they were young and they were

00:44:12.380 --> 00:44:13.840
getting ahold of stuff. Those like good fucking

00:44:13.840 --> 00:44:16.670
Lord. No, That's not OK. But many of their parents

00:44:16.670 --> 00:44:18.190
just didn't care. They're like, well, they're

00:44:18.190 --> 00:44:20.070
going to get access to it anyway. It's like,

00:44:20.070 --> 00:44:23.510
no, that's fucking disgusting. Like, no, no,

00:44:23.590 --> 00:44:26.309
they're not old enough to handle that. Yeah.

00:44:26.710 --> 00:44:31.309
So in regards to the senator that it was, excuse

00:44:31.309 --> 00:44:33.469
me, it was a senator that Mike Lee was billed

00:44:33.469 --> 00:44:37.889
for. Yes, Mike Lee. He's from Utah, which totally

00:44:37.889 --> 00:44:42.829
makes sense. So he's using. religion to back

00:44:42.829 --> 00:44:46.369
his ethos and it also takes aim at trans people

00:44:46.369 --> 00:44:53.190
how so well because of the whole obscenity clause

00:44:53.190 --> 00:44:58.769
because so many people that are highly orthodox

00:44:58.769 --> 00:45:03.050
religious people feel that the trans population

00:45:03.050 --> 00:45:07.369
is obscene in some way No, no. I just feel like

00:45:07.369 --> 00:45:09.269
there's a lot of closet gay people in Utah. I'm

00:45:09.269 --> 00:45:12.010
just going to throw that one out there. I don't

00:45:12.010 --> 00:45:13.230
feel like it's that they're more obscene than

00:45:13.230 --> 00:45:14.949
any other group. I just feel like there's a lot

00:45:14.949 --> 00:45:16.570
of straight guys in Utah searching up penises.

00:45:16.610 --> 00:45:19.130
They just don't want to admit it. Yeah, there's

00:45:19.130 --> 00:45:20.989
probably that, too. But yeah, they don't want

00:45:20.989 --> 00:45:24.769
to like Amazon to stop selling trans themed children's

00:45:24.769 --> 00:45:27.489
book, ban trans students from school sports,

00:45:27.829 --> 00:45:30.849
intentionally misgendering, you know, things

00:45:30.849 --> 00:45:36.960
like that. And. In some things, I can understand

00:45:36.960 --> 00:45:40.460
the concern, but to sit there and outright say

00:45:40.460 --> 00:45:44.300
we need to do a ban is dumb. Yes. You know, the

00:45:44.300 --> 00:45:46.980
moment we sit there and start doing book burnings

00:45:46.980 --> 00:45:49.199
and banning things, then we're no better than

00:45:49.199 --> 00:45:51.599
some of the countries we fought and beat back

00:45:51.599 --> 00:45:55.639
in the day. Yeah. It should be. Oh, sorry. No,

00:45:56.880 --> 00:45:59.280
I was going to just kind of like at that point,

00:45:59.320 --> 00:46:01.940
I'm just kind of grumbling because I've got books

00:46:01.940 --> 00:46:05.320
that. My wife and I have bought because, you

00:46:05.320 --> 00:46:08.559
know, schools were banning it. I know there was

00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:13.260
one guy that his book was it was cute and was

00:46:13.260 --> 00:46:15.679
talking about an alternate lifestyle family.

00:46:16.139 --> 00:46:19.639
And it was it was innocent book. It was not going

00:46:19.639 --> 00:46:22.659
out of its way to corrupt anybody. It's just

00:46:22.659 --> 00:46:26.260
talking about yet another form of family. And

00:46:26.260 --> 00:46:29.119
I'm a very conservative person. But even I was

00:46:29.119 --> 00:46:31.400
looking at this book going, you know. it's not

00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:34.880
that bad, you know, cause there are different

00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:37.119
types of families out there. And for some way,

00:46:37.159 --> 00:46:39.860
like Senator Mike Lee to sit there and go, you

00:46:39.860 --> 00:46:41.940
know, these things are obscene. We shouldn't

00:46:41.940 --> 00:46:48.960
man fool. No, no, it's, it is very weird hill

00:46:48.960 --> 00:46:52.099
to die on, especially when it seems like he has

00:46:52.099 --> 00:46:54.219
a more of a problem of the over -sexualization

00:46:54.219 --> 00:46:57.159
rather than just people like identifying a certain

00:46:57.159 --> 00:47:00.219
way. I, I, I, that that's always been the problem

00:47:00.219 --> 00:47:01.780
with the messaging on the republican party has

00:47:01.780 --> 00:47:04.599
been like hey if you just message this correctly

00:47:04.599 --> 00:47:07.659
most people be behind you but instead you're

00:47:07.659 --> 00:47:09.519
not coming across very well and you're not getting

00:47:09.519 --> 00:47:11.500
your point right because quite frankly you don't

00:47:11.500 --> 00:47:13.679
give enough of a damn to actually take five minutes

00:47:13.679 --> 00:47:16.739
and fucking learn something because i don't know

00:47:16.739 --> 00:47:18.039
i guess some people hit a certain age and all

00:47:18.039 --> 00:47:19.840
of a sudden like yep new information i'm fucking

00:47:19.840 --> 00:47:22.679
allergic to that shit like i don't know it i

00:47:22.679 --> 00:47:26.639
don't understand it so yeah i mean you know i

00:47:26.639 --> 00:47:29.590
was gonna also put in you know If we were going

00:47:29.590 --> 00:47:33.650
from the sideline of like the parades and stuff

00:47:33.650 --> 00:47:37.429
like in Washington, D .C., you have, you know,

00:47:37.429 --> 00:47:40.489
the gay and lesbian, transgender, however, the

00:47:40.489 --> 00:47:43.210
alphabet people having their parade once a year.

00:47:43.389 --> 00:47:46.070
Nothing wrong with it until you see some of the

00:47:46.070 --> 00:47:49.889
stuff that's put out in public. The normal stuff

00:47:49.889 --> 00:47:52.550
that would normally on any other day get you

00:47:52.550 --> 00:47:55.489
arrested immediately for indecent exposure. And

00:47:55.489 --> 00:47:58.099
they're walking around like it's normal. Right.

00:47:58.139 --> 00:48:00.079
You know, you have small children being brought

00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:02.639
to this parade while you've got some dude dressed

00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:05.860
as a chick with some giant dildo hanging out

00:48:05.860 --> 00:48:08.000
and they're flagging them around like it's, you

00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:11.380
know, you know, the Macy's Day Parade and trying

00:48:11.380 --> 00:48:13.340
to act like that's normal. See, that should be

00:48:13.340 --> 00:48:15.219
treated no different like any other day. Like

00:48:15.219 --> 00:48:17.159
that, that's it. Laws are laws. Apply it equally.

00:48:18.259 --> 00:48:22.320
Right. And to me, it's like, again, if you just

00:48:22.320 --> 00:48:25.840
acted like just everyone else, like, okay, guess

00:48:25.840 --> 00:48:27.539
what? You want to dress like a woman, dress like

00:48:27.539 --> 00:48:30.519
a woman. But understand there's certain aspects

00:48:30.519 --> 00:48:33.159
that you're not going to sit there and shove

00:48:33.159 --> 00:48:35.400
down someone's throat. I have family. They're

00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:37.500
gay. They're lesbian. And even they're looking

00:48:37.500 --> 00:48:39.760
at some of these people going, what the fuck?

00:48:42.300 --> 00:48:46.329
I find it interesting that. A senator from the

00:48:46.329 --> 00:48:48.969
soaking capital of the U .S. is trying to ban

00:48:48.969 --> 00:48:52.250
stuff like that. Also, the out -of -touch stuff.

00:48:52.550 --> 00:48:56.389
Look at Texas. They just banned pot. Really?

00:48:56.989 --> 00:49:02.730
Yeah. Why? Because it's bad. But, like... Well,

00:49:02.750 --> 00:49:06.590
look at your state. The people voted for it,

00:49:06.610 --> 00:49:08.090
and they're trying to re -ban it. Oh, that's

00:49:08.090 --> 00:49:10.090
our idiot governor, and he's going to be out

00:49:10.090 --> 00:49:14.440
of office soon. Yeah, I'm just saying. The Republicans

00:49:14.440 --> 00:49:16.460
keep picking the weirdest fucking hills to die

00:49:16.460 --> 00:49:19.559
on. They can't leave the will of the people alone.

00:49:19.739 --> 00:49:22.659
And this goes for every candidate, both sides

00:49:22.659 --> 00:49:25.280
of the aisle. Follow the will of the people and

00:49:25.280 --> 00:49:30.199
you'll be fine. Period. When the majority said

00:49:30.199 --> 00:49:33.139
X, Y, and Z, this is how we voted. This is what

00:49:33.139 --> 00:49:36.360
we want. Everyone else sitting there in the minority

00:49:36.360 --> 00:49:39.300
screaming, no, no, no, you can't do that. That's

00:49:39.300 --> 00:49:44.300
not PC or no, this is wrong. Sorry, the way this

00:49:44.300 --> 00:49:49.400
country works is the majority wins. Not supposed

00:49:49.400 --> 00:49:53.079
to be. Yeah. So if the majority goes, we want

00:49:53.079 --> 00:49:56.739
pot, you know what? You listen to your constituents

00:49:56.739 --> 00:49:58.900
and go, I guess this is what my constituents

00:49:58.900 --> 00:50:01.300
want. So this is the way I'm going to have to

00:50:01.300 --> 00:50:03.199
vote. Because that's all you are, is to represent.

00:50:03.559 --> 00:50:06.739
You're not in charge in charge. You're just the

00:50:06.739 --> 00:50:09.079
guy that's at the front of the line going, okay,

00:50:09.099 --> 00:50:11.880
this is what everyone's voting for. So this is

00:50:11.880 --> 00:50:15.170
the way I'm going to go. Not the Democrats going,

00:50:15.329 --> 00:50:17.469
oh, well, you know, everybody wanted this, but

00:50:17.469 --> 00:50:19.449
you know what? Scrum, we're still going to do

00:50:19.449 --> 00:50:23.389
this because we know we're right. Bold of you

00:50:23.389 --> 00:50:26.389
to assume that politicians should be beholden

00:50:26.389 --> 00:50:29.150
to the people that vote them in office. Oh, yeah.

00:50:29.230 --> 00:50:32.869
How dare you? Nay, nay, sir. Nay, nay. Yeah,

00:50:32.949 --> 00:50:36.750
I know. We say nay, nay. Nay, nay. Watching politicians

00:50:36.750 --> 00:50:40.610
for over 13 years in D .C. do whatever the hell

00:50:40.610 --> 00:50:43.630
they want. Gross. Disgusting. They're never held

00:50:43.630 --> 00:50:47.409
accountable. Never are. No. Why would they? They

00:50:47.409 --> 00:50:50.570
don't have a social credit system. Oh, yeah.

00:50:50.929 --> 00:50:54.150
And DC Council, all that. I mean, these people

00:50:54.150 --> 00:50:56.550
are so not held accountable that you pull one

00:50:56.550 --> 00:50:59.309
of those fools over. By the time you're done

00:50:59.309 --> 00:51:01.369
with that traffic stop, let me tell you, you're

00:51:01.369 --> 00:51:04.570
going to have multiple calls or told on the radio,

00:51:04.710 --> 00:51:06.909
give me a call. And then you're getting a tongue

00:51:06.909 --> 00:51:08.969
lashing. Why the hell did you pull that person

00:51:08.969 --> 00:51:14.280
over? Promise. Oh, it's not going to be as nice

00:51:14.280 --> 00:51:18.699
as you think it is. I'd rather enjoy the last

00:51:18.699 --> 00:51:22.320
tongue lashing I got. No, it won't be nice like

00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:25.000
that. And it's going to be a lot worse than the

00:51:25.000 --> 00:51:27.579
sandpaper condom that the military likes to provide.

00:51:29.019 --> 00:51:32.579
I miss those days. I'm surprised they provided

00:51:32.579 --> 00:51:36.380
condoms. Well, they had to come up with some

00:51:36.380 --> 00:51:39.440
form of resistance. Well, they had to prevent

00:51:39.440 --> 00:51:41.719
the spread of the lion's main genital warts.

00:51:42.119 --> 00:51:45.480
Oh. Yeah. Because after a while, when you're

00:51:45.480 --> 00:51:47.559
told to bend over, you know, it does get loose,

00:51:47.599 --> 00:51:49.760
so they had to come up with another form of punishment

00:51:49.760 --> 00:51:56.219
to go with it. Oh, jeez. Sandpaper butt plugs.

00:51:57.840 --> 00:52:08.539
Right. Oh, my God. We broke kids. Yes. One, two,

00:52:08.559 --> 00:52:12.340
three. Toasty. Same people about plugs when the

00:52:12.340 --> 00:52:17.360
itch is just that deep. Oh, yeah. Oh, that's

00:52:17.360 --> 00:52:22.119
a good tagline for that. Oh, there's something

00:52:22.119 --> 00:52:34.289
else for the merch store. Oh, no. Oh, yes. Just

00:52:34.289 --> 00:52:38.730
like that, too, for the commercial. Okay, I got

00:52:38.730 --> 00:52:41.090
to write that one down. That's awesome. Jesus

00:52:41.090 --> 00:52:49.650
Christ. Oh. You know, we're a weird bunch. Yes,

00:52:49.650 --> 00:52:51.369
we are. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

00:52:51.489 --> 00:52:55.030
That's true. Being normal is boring. Exactly.

00:52:55.969 --> 00:53:00.199
Round Bob normal pants is what you get. I'm only

00:53:00.199 --> 00:53:01.900
that way when I start talking to somebody new

00:53:01.900 --> 00:53:04.920
and on a couple dates and then, you know, the

00:53:04.920 --> 00:53:14.739
pants come off and I'm like this. I can't say

00:53:14.739 --> 00:53:18.760
those words on the podcast, but I have many questions.

00:53:19.699 --> 00:53:21.800
The problem is you said, and I quote, I'm like

00:53:21.800 --> 00:53:24.800
this, and mind you, the picture behind you is

00:53:24.800 --> 00:53:29.119
a chicken with arms holding a machete. So, I

00:53:29.119 --> 00:53:31.780
don't know. No, it's a short sword, not a machete.

00:53:31.780 --> 00:53:33.739
It's a short sword. Get it right. I'm sorry.

00:53:34.300 --> 00:53:47.380
It's Maximus Cockamus. Biggest dickus. I have

00:53:47.380 --> 00:53:51.840
a friend in Rome called Biggest Dickus. Monty

00:53:51.840 --> 00:53:56.280
Python. Indubitably. I wish Monty Python came

00:53:56.280 --> 00:53:58.500
back. I know it's like a short aside, but we

00:53:58.500 --> 00:54:03.719
need humor like that again. God. Yeah. We need

00:54:03.719 --> 00:54:07.039
better things coming out of Europe than Black

00:54:07.039 --> 00:54:12.079
Mirror coming to life. Yeah. They're just trying

00:54:12.079 --> 00:54:13.980
to scare everybody. Dude, now that you mention

00:54:13.980 --> 00:54:16.480
it, is anything positive come out of Europe in

00:54:16.480 --> 00:54:19.409
the last 20 years? There hasn't been any movies,

00:54:19.530 --> 00:54:22.750
like any TV shows, really? I will say, I did

00:54:22.750 --> 00:54:25.030
find one show that I really liked. It was Mrs.

00:54:25.170 --> 00:54:28.329
Brown. Mrs. Brown's Boys, or however you call

00:54:28.329 --> 00:54:31.769
that show. I really enjoyed that one. I'm not

00:54:31.769 --> 00:54:34.030
going to get into the political diatribe here

00:54:34.030 --> 00:54:36.130
on the podcast, but the things coming out of

00:54:36.130 --> 00:54:41.349
Europe now are worrisome. And I don't know if

00:54:41.349 --> 00:54:43.130
you guys know what I'm talking about, but...

00:54:43.819 --> 00:54:46.679
It is scary. And it's something that we may have

00:54:46.679 --> 00:54:51.480
to address one day. But I don't know. There's

00:54:51.480 --> 00:54:53.000
a lot of research. It's not all the refugees

00:54:53.000 --> 00:54:59.000
trying to rape more women, is it? Well, that's

00:54:59.000 --> 00:55:03.000
part of it. Come on. A little bit of a spoiler

00:55:03.000 --> 00:55:06.940
on that one. Damn. A little bit of a spoiler

00:55:06.940 --> 00:55:11.159
on that one. That was a guess. Well, I do want

00:55:11.159 --> 00:55:12.900
to, like, not to bring up anything political,

00:55:12.960 --> 00:55:14.980
but I do want to see how Poland's going to look

00:55:14.980 --> 00:55:17.860
six months from now versus the rest of Europe,

00:55:17.980 --> 00:55:22.059
because they've done some very anti -European

00:55:22.059 --> 00:55:25.679
things. Aggressive. Yes. Some very more conservative,

00:55:25.719 --> 00:55:27.139
I think, stuff that they've been doing. European

00:55:27.139 --> 00:55:29.000
Texas. That is the best description of Poland.

00:55:29.000 --> 00:55:32.239
Oh, yeah. They're turning into Little Texas right

00:55:32.239 --> 00:55:34.820
there. Yeah. So I'm very curious to see how they're

00:55:34.820 --> 00:55:36.760
going to look, what the data's going to show.

00:55:37.699 --> 00:55:40.500
Yeah. But that's I don't want to discuss it too

00:55:40.500 --> 00:55:42.079
much because that's going to be a whole different

00:55:42.079 --> 00:55:45.239
episode that we got to dive into and do some

00:55:45.239 --> 00:55:48.039
research on. This is a lot happening in Europe

00:55:48.039 --> 00:55:50.460
right now, particularly in England. I am so sorry.

00:55:51.139 --> 00:55:54.239
Yeah. Yeah. England, I know we kicked your ass

00:55:54.239 --> 00:55:56.880
a couple hundred years ago, but we stand with

00:55:56.880 --> 00:56:00.820
you and we're you have our heartfelt sympathies

00:56:00.820 --> 00:56:03.260
for the way that your country is getting taken.

00:56:03.480 --> 00:56:06.159
I am. I am so sorry. They're jailing people for.

00:56:06.619 --> 00:56:09.659
putting music lyric quotes on Facebook. Oh, I

00:56:09.659 --> 00:56:13.780
know, right? You know, the Puritans came to the

00:56:13.780 --> 00:56:15.619
US. I'm trying to figure out how they ended up

00:56:15.619 --> 00:56:21.579
back in Britain. I don't know. I really don't

00:56:21.579 --> 00:56:27.340
know. Yeah. Alright, so we're pretty much...

00:56:27.340 --> 00:56:32.039
Any other comments on the previous topics? Social

00:56:32.039 --> 00:56:36.920
credit bad. Don't let it happen. What? If you

00:56:36.920 --> 00:56:41.039
are not someone who is active, this is probably

00:56:41.039 --> 00:56:42.980
the one thing that you would need to get involved

00:56:42.980 --> 00:56:46.139
with and call Congress people, Senator folk.

00:56:47.460 --> 00:56:52.039
Yes. I've already done that. Yeah. If it comes

00:56:52.039 --> 00:56:55.119
out to there's an actual protest on this shit,

00:56:55.179 --> 00:57:01.280
do not let the gauge system come to your neck

00:57:01.280 --> 00:57:06.570
of the woods. It is. Completely bad to the core.

00:57:07.429 --> 00:57:12.050
Yeah. It doesn't even have to be Gage. It's whatever

00:57:12.050 --> 00:57:14.570
they named. Yeah, any kind of social credit system,

00:57:14.750 --> 00:57:20.190
period, is not an American benefit. Not for the

00:57:20.190 --> 00:57:22.269
American people, not for the American workers,

00:57:22.570 --> 00:57:26.349
not for the country as a whole. Go ahead, Gibbs.

00:57:29.030 --> 00:57:31.130
Sir, what I was going to say is we're going to

00:57:31.130 --> 00:57:33.969
have to push for... Anti -social credit score

00:57:33.969 --> 00:57:37.110
legislation, as well as I hope people need to

00:57:37.110 --> 00:57:39.030
do some research before you apply for jobs or

00:57:39.030 --> 00:57:41.489
any jobs in your area that are requiring those.

00:57:41.869 --> 00:57:44.289
You should make it public on Facebook groups,

00:57:44.449 --> 00:57:46.730
Instagram groups, shame those companies, make

00:57:46.730 --> 00:57:49.630
it public, make them aware. And I would even

00:57:49.630 --> 00:57:51.809
go as so far as I might even fake apply to these

00:57:51.809 --> 00:57:53.690
jobs to go there and waste their fucking time

00:57:53.690 --> 00:57:57.889
just to tell them, hey, this is some communist

00:57:57.889 --> 00:58:00.219
bullshit. And I'm telling everyone I know to

00:58:00.219 --> 00:58:02.440
stay the fuck away from your company. Don't fucking

00:58:02.440 --> 00:58:04.719
do this. And I feel like if we got enough people

00:58:04.719 --> 00:58:06.980
together and had these companies where they spend

00:58:06.980 --> 00:58:10.380
hours a day going through all of our resumes

00:58:10.380 --> 00:58:12.300
that we keep making because we can keep using

00:58:12.300 --> 00:58:16.360
AI and I keep this shit up all day, buddy. Maybe

00:58:16.360 --> 00:58:18.559
they'll change. And maybe that's the point. Make

00:58:18.559 --> 00:58:21.639
them lose so much money. So what was the phrase

00:58:21.639 --> 00:58:24.539
that I said during GameStocks? We can remain

00:58:24.539 --> 00:58:27.480
stupid longer than they can remain solvent. So

00:58:27.480 --> 00:58:31.360
let's. Yeah. Let's do that. Let's at this point

00:58:31.360 --> 00:58:34.219
make it so it's so insanely non -profitable for

00:58:34.219 --> 00:58:39.559
them to do this that they can't keep it up. Yeah,

00:58:39.579 --> 00:58:41.699
I'll let someone borrow the brain so I do that.

00:58:41.719 --> 00:58:45.699
So that way I just let the autism take over.

00:58:46.019 --> 00:58:49.179
Yeah. Deny them the Viagra. Don't let them keep

00:58:49.179 --> 00:58:55.960
it up. Yeah. Just like my shirt says tonight,

00:58:56.039 --> 00:59:02.920
we will exist out of spite. But I'm happy. Yes.

00:59:05.159 --> 00:59:07.380
My shirt doesn't say anything cool. I can't really

00:59:07.380 --> 00:59:10.360
contribute on that one. Yeah. Mine is just Patrick

00:59:10.360 --> 00:59:15.920
getting the drink on. Oh, I'm Patrick. I got

00:59:15.920 --> 00:59:26.260
mine from Mandatory Fun Day. Oh, man. So. I guess

00:59:26.260 --> 00:59:29.980
that brings us to the end of the. Are we going

00:59:29.980 --> 00:59:32.539
to call this a season? Yeah, that's what I was

00:59:32.539 --> 00:59:36.480
kind of thinking. A season of fun, a season of

00:59:36.480 --> 00:59:41.940
learning. The end of season one. We've learned

00:59:41.940 --> 00:59:45.280
a lot. We went way farther than what we expected,

00:59:45.380 --> 00:59:48.840
to be honest. Hell yeah. Thousands and thousands

00:59:48.840 --> 00:59:50.860
of views, tens of thousands of impressions and

00:59:50.860 --> 00:59:53.599
stuff like that. A lot of different countries.

00:59:53.699 --> 00:59:55.059
I don't know the exact number right now, but

00:59:55.059 --> 00:59:58.260
we had a ton of different countries. 15 different

00:59:58.260 --> 01:00:03.659
countries. No kidding. It went much farther than

01:00:03.659 --> 01:00:06.860
what we expected. I do really appreciate everybody

01:00:06.860 --> 01:00:09.719
that's checked in, that's been a part of this,

01:00:09.739 --> 01:00:11.719
that's been listening. We're not going away permanently.

01:00:11.840 --> 01:00:15.179
This is not a goodbye. This is just a temporary

01:00:15.179 --> 01:00:17.739
hiatus just so we can figure out some stuff and

01:00:17.739 --> 01:00:21.199
come back even stronger. Because as I will admit,

01:00:21.320 --> 01:00:23.820
I got to get my life in order and get social

01:00:23.820 --> 01:00:26.719
media stuff rolling. And, you know, we just kind

01:00:26.719 --> 01:00:29.079
of want to, I guess, make things more efficient

01:00:29.079 --> 01:00:32.099
and also be able to do more. And that's kind

01:00:32.099 --> 01:00:33.559
of the other the other big thing we're excited

01:00:33.559 --> 01:00:37.880
for is, well, we might talk about crapping on

01:00:37.880 --> 01:00:41.239
AI a lot, but we can't beat him. Join him. You

01:00:41.239 --> 01:00:48.440
know? Yeah. And we're going to I know we kind

01:00:48.440 --> 01:00:50.780
of hinted at a big episode and we decided to

01:00:50.780 --> 01:00:53.099
hold off on it. Because there is just too much

01:00:53.099 --> 01:00:55.019
to learn and there was not enough time to do

01:00:55.019 --> 01:00:57.400
it while still trying to put out the episodes

01:00:57.400 --> 01:01:00.539
that we were trying to do. So when we come back,

01:01:00.579 --> 01:01:04.900
we are going to hit the ground running with an

01:01:04.900 --> 01:01:07.780
absolutely banger of an episode as long as we

01:01:07.780 --> 01:01:12.179
can get this shit figured out. We might have

01:01:12.179 --> 01:01:14.960
to actually hire some help to get this shit done.

01:01:15.079 --> 01:01:21.289
I'm hoping not. But it's going to be... a great

01:01:21.289 --> 01:01:24.409
episode when we come back. So hopefully it's

01:01:24.409 --> 01:01:28.010
not very long. I think October at the latest,

01:01:28.050 --> 01:01:31.929
it should be. Uh, I know Gibbs is the one with

01:01:31.929 --> 01:01:35.630
a lot of the, uh, time commitment issues. Uh,

01:01:35.809 --> 01:01:39.349
he's, he's very overextended. Uh, his, he's,

01:01:39.349 --> 01:01:41.750
he's going to come back and popular man. And

01:01:41.750 --> 01:01:43.829
he's probably going to be kind of consensually.

01:01:44.289 --> 01:01:46.809
This is not consensually. This is, this is just,

01:01:46.969 --> 01:01:51.849
yeah. Remember the safe word, Gibbs? Pineapple.

01:01:51.849 --> 01:01:57.070
Got it. Yeah. And Gibles, we're looking forward

01:01:57.070 --> 01:02:00.190
to having you on board going forward, buddy.

01:02:01.829 --> 01:02:05.630
Sounds good. Got messed up on coming in at the

01:02:05.630 --> 01:02:07.329
end going, oh, yeah, we're taking a break. Bye.

01:02:08.710 --> 01:02:12.710
She's using the royal we on that one. Yeah. Welcome

01:02:12.710 --> 01:02:18.230
to the group. Bye. Yeah. No, that's just a good

01:02:18.230 --> 01:02:22.190
way to get your feet wet on being a main chair

01:02:22.190 --> 01:02:28.050
in this. Wet. When we come back, you'll be right

01:02:28.050 --> 01:02:31.570
here with us. So thank you again to everybody

01:02:31.570 --> 01:02:35.469
that's helped us get this far. We literally could

01:02:35.469 --> 01:02:39.869
not have done it without you. And we can't wait

01:02:39.869 --> 01:02:43.030
to see you when we get back. So thanks again.

01:02:43.150 --> 01:02:46.159
We love you. And. We'll see you all soon.
