I have a bunch of malarkey. What 70 00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:07.039 he said drained the swamp. I said, Oh, that's so 71 00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:08.159 he'll keep happen. 72 00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:08.360 Man. 73 00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:13.719 You know the thing, so former President Trump is going 74 00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:17.280 to be an Aurora, Colorado. Early early this morning, people 75 00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:20.800 were lined up for this rally. Immigration is going to 76 00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:24.800 be the focus. Of course, he has said that Aurora 77 00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:27.520 is a war zone, that it's been overrun by Venezuelan 78 00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:31.680 gang members. Local officials have said that's not the case. Yeah, 79 00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:35.000 they have a gang problem, yes some of them are Venezuelan, 80 00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:40.159 but that this is not as bad. It's bad, it's 81 00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:42.800 not as bad as he says it is. Again, that's 82 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:44.960 according to the mayor of Aurora, Colorado. 83 00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:47.560 And it's actually created because I told you how I 84 00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:49.280 went on the ground there and spoke to the city 85 00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:51.039 and spoke to residents, and one of the things the 86 00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:53.680 city said is it's actually created a lot of problems 87 00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:56.840 for them to have these rumors swirling around that they've 88 00:03:56.879 --> 00:03:59.919 been overtaken by gangs, and it undermines the efforts they've 89 00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:02.960 to keep people safe. You know, they started a task 90 00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:06.199 for us with the police department. They've really done a lot, 91 00:04:06.280 --> 00:04:10.120 and they've arrested the Venezuelan gang members that they've identified 92 00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:13.719 thus far, almost all of them. They've identified ten. 93 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:18.639 The mayor of Aurora a guy named Mike Kaufman, who 94 00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:24.079 is a Republican. He initially repeated the claims that gangs 95 00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:26.680 were taking over buildings and entire apartment complexes. 96 00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:27.480 He reversed course. 97 00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:30.439 He actually said the concerns have been grossly exaggerated. He 98 00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:34.240 welcomed the former president to tour the city if he 99 00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:35.120 wants to. 100 00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:38.439 But there are other people in that town of Aurora. 101 00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:41.519 They say they're worried about Trump supporters showing up to 102 00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:45.600 the apartment complexes and threatening them. Says we've seen people 103 00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:48.319 drive up in cars, wave guns in the air and 104 00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:51.639 saying things like they want to kill all the Venezuelans. 105 00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:54.800 Two of the apartment buildings that are at the center 106 00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:58.519 of this controversy, there are broken windows, there's a bunch 107 00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:01.600 of litter. One building had portable police camera stations that 108 00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:05.680 residents said had been installed just this week. One three 109 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:08.519 year old guy works as a landscaper lives in one 110 00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:11.120 of those buildings, said that all Venezuelans are being blamed 111 00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:13.519 for the actions of just a few, whether or not 112 00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:18.199 they belonged to that Tres Traces. 113 00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:25.519 Is it the gang? Yeah, that araguas a part of Venezuela, 114 00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:29.480 and Train is train. But you know, so one of 115 00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:32.040 the buildings I went to, and I went to two 116 00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:35.959 of them, one had been fenced off, boarded up, and 117 00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:41.000 everyone was now out of that one building. That was 118 00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:43.639 where the resident told me he had had homicides, and 119 00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:46.319 you know, like two people were murdered right outside his house, 120 00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.319 and crazy guy was tased in his front lawn and 121 00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:52.279 all these things. The other building I went to was 122 00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:56.560 almost uninhabitable. It was crazy to me that people still 123 00:05:56.600 --> 00:06:01.120 lived in there because, as you just mentioned, windows were shattered. 124 00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:03.839 I read a little bit about the history these buildings 125 00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:07.199 that all of them just like slum lords, where they 126 00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:12.040 had had a very long history of massive problems rodent infestations, 127 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:14.000 sewage spills, just. 128 00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:16.879 Uninhabitable living conditions. 129 00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:19.399 And so now on top of that they have all 130 00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:23.319 these other all this political firestorm around them, and it 131 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:25.639 must be very difficult if you're just a resident trying 132 00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:26.519 to live your life there. 133 00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:31.000 Former President Trump, no loss for words when it comes 134 00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:34.279 to ways to make people angry. Laid out his vision 135 00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:37.560 for the auto industry at the Detroit Economic Club, but 136 00:06:37.639 --> 00:06:40.680 then said that the United States will become Detroit. 137 00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:42.439 If Kamala Harris is a lest. 138 00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:44.480 I don't think anything that we're talking about today is 139 00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:46.639 high on her list. The whole country is going to 140 00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:49.000 be like you want to know the truth, It'll be 141 00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:51.920 like Detroit. Our whole country will end up being like Detroit. 142 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:54.439 If she's your president, you're gonna have a mess in 143 00:06:54.480 --> 00:07:04.160 your hands. She destroyed San Francisco, she destroyed, along with Newscomb, California, and. 144 00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:04.399 We're not going to let her do that to this country. 145 00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:06.399 We're not going to let it happen. I can turn 146 00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:08.399 it into the beautiful city that I'm standing in. 147 00:07:08.639 --> 00:07:11.319 I would be so sad if I were a resident 148 00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:11.959 of Detroit. 149 00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:12.720 Oh, you wouldn't. 150 00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:14.120 No, that would be horrible. 151 00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:18.560 You know what, if you're in there, you're in the audience, 152 00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:21.560 you look up to the former president, You're so happy 153 00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:23.319 he's in your city, and then. 154 00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:26.199 He just turns around and takes a crap on yourself's 155 00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:29.480 on it. Yeah, we're talking about former President Trump. His 156 00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:33.120 speech in Aurora. The rally itself is expected to begin 157 00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:36.199 pretty close to the top of the hour. Former President 158 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:41.079 Obama was in Pennsylvania. Hasn't been as active on the 159 00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:44.399 campaign trail as we may have expected him to at 160 00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:48.600 some point, but he said, among other things, that. 161 00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:51.680 The wherell where to go? Let me find this one. 162 00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:53.720 Do you think he hasn't been as active? I feel 163 00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:55.839 like I've seen a lot of headlines around him. 164 00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:57.199 Yeah, I haven't seen very many. 165 00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:00.480 Donald Trump is a seventy eight year old billionaire who 166 00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:05.279 has not stopped whining about his problems since he wrote. 167 00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:07.279 Down his Golden Escalator nine years ago. 168 00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:11.839 But the headlines this time are around what he said 169 00:08:12.040 --> 00:08:14.759 in what he said to some voters. 170 00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:17.160 Trump is a seventy eight year old billionaire. 171 00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:20.800 How about this one. This is what he was talking 172 00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:22.319 to a group of voters. 173 00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:28.160 When you had a choice, that is this clean? And 174 00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:36.360 on one hand, you have somebody who grew up like you, 175 00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:46.159 knows you went to college. Would you understands the struggles 176 00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:53.360 and pain and joy that comes from those experiences. 177 00:08:55.720 --> 00:09:04.200 He work harder and do more and overcome. 178 00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:11.080 And achieves the second highest office. Anoying. 179 00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:16.000 This is his version of what Joe Biden told Charlemagne 180 00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:19.039 the God four years ago when he said, if you 181 00:09:19.159 --> 00:09:20.720 vote for Trump, you ain't black. 182 00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:24.639 This is his version of it. Why is that? Okay? 183 00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:27.720 Well, I might have a different take on this. I 184 00:09:27.720 --> 00:09:31.279 also just want to acknowledge, my goodness, those pregnant pauses 185 00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:33.879 and President obampas. 186 00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:35.559 Addressed to those people. I was just hanging on the 187 00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:36.320 edge of my seat. 188 00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:41.399 So he raises a fair point in a sense, because 189 00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:45.759 he goes on to say it seems people are coming up, 190 00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:48.720 some men in particular, coming up with excuses, and he said, 191 00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:51.279 part of it makes him think they're not feeling the 192 00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:53.600 idea of having a woman as president. And I know 193 00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:57.559 this is an uncomfortable conversation to have. And many may say, whatever, 194 00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.519 We're ready for a woman president if it's the right person. 195 00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:05.679 But in some cases, the numbers, the polling, the questions 196 00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:08.120 that have been asked indicate otherwise. And I actually saw 197 00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:11.080 this report recently where a reporter was sitting down with 198 00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:14.039 a number of different kids from all backgrounds, and many 199 00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:17.279 of them said they did not want Kamala Harris as 200 00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:19.440 president because they don't want a woman president. And you know, 201 00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:24.360 kids are the ultimate honesty barometer, right, And so it 202 00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:27.159 makes me think that maybe this is more entrenched just. 203 00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:29.679 Into our DNA than we think. 204 00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:32.440 And when it's the first time for something, there will 205 00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:35.440 be some resistance just because people resist change, whether or not, 206 00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:37.840 you know. So it's a question that should be asked, 207 00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:38.519 is all I'm saying. 208 00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:42.879 Well, I mean, he describes her as being similar to 209 00:10:42.919 --> 00:10:46.399 the guys that he's talking to in the in Pennsylvania, 210 00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:50.159 and you know that she grew up like they did, 211 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:52.960 that she went to school with them, et cetera. I mean, 212 00:10:53.720 --> 00:10:56.559 she was at Varnier College in Montreal, she went to 213 00:10:56.600 --> 00:11:03.320 Howard University. These are not necessarily the same path. She 214 00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:06.639 was not on the same path necessarily that he's selling 215 00:11:06.679 --> 00:11:09.720 to these guys and I and it's it's. 216 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:11.000 It's just a it's a weird thing. 217 00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:14.759 I hate the idea of painting politics, of course. 218 00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:18.720 But my point is if if he would be upset 219 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.919 for Donald Trump painting a certain population with a broad 220 00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:26.559 brush or making us having an expectation about a certain 221 00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:31.360 population based on some immutable characteristic, then then why is 222 00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:33.679 it okay for him to do it? And that's the 223 00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:36.679 frustrating part about it. I'm not naive about it. I 224 00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:41.519 understand why he's doing and I understand the context in 225 00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:45.120 which he's saying it. But it echoed to me what 226 00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:47.639 Joe Biden was saying. Granted it comes from a different 227 00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:50.399 delivery source. I mean, Joe Biden and you and I. 228 00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:53.600 You know Whitey mcmahonay's kind of thing, but it's it 229 00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:57.679 does it had that same feel to it, and it's unfortunate. 230 00:11:58.000 --> 00:11:59.960 Just allow people to vote the way they want to vote, 231 00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:02.799 you know, it's not you can convince them. You can 232 00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:05.279 guilt them, you can tell them, you know, vote for 233 00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:08.360 stronger culture or over pology, whatever however you. 234 00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:08.919 Want to do it. 235 00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:12.960 But don't just assume that you're gonna you are instructed 236 00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:15.639 to vote some way because of whatever characteristics you have. 237 00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:19.000 If you were Obama, how would you have encouraged people 238 00:12:19.000 --> 00:12:20.039 to vote for Kamala Harris. 239 00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:22.120 I would have said she's a better candidate, and then 240 00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:23.559 I would have given her a list. I would have 241 00:12:23.559 --> 00:12:26.679 given a list of arguments to prove my point. I mean, 242 00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:29.639 that's that's what that's how it should happen. Not you. 243 00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:34.519 You're not an authentic insert name of characteristic here unless 244 00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:36.759 you vote for insert name of candidate. 245 00:12:36.919 --> 00:12:38.840 That is a fair point. You have a good point. 246 00:12:38.919 --> 00:12:40.559 Fair point, ye point. 247 00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:42.840 On my head, don't always agree with you, but on 248 00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:43.360 that one. 249 00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:46.960 Donald Trump is spending time in Colorado, away from the 250 00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:50.879 battleground states. He's there in Aurora, Colorado, with a rally 251 00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:53.080 that's supposed to start here in just a few minutes. 252 00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:56.279 A solid majority of Hispanic women say they have a 253 00:12:56.399 --> 00:12:59.320 positive opinion a vice president Harris in a negative view 254 00:12:59.360 --> 00:13:03.279 of former president and Trump, but Hispanic men apparently divided 255 00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:07.240 on both candidates. Hispanic men also more likely than Hispanic 256 00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:10.279 women to say that Trump represents their views on some 257 00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:14.440 key issues. We've talked before about the difference when it 258 00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:19.559 comes to gender difference and voting, so that's highlighted in 259 00:13:19.639 --> 00:13:20.960 specific demographic groups. 260 00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:25.360 Also, I personally don't believe that President Obama was saying 261 00:13:25.480 --> 00:13:31.080 anything about a race or anything. He was just saying, you, 262 00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:35.200 as in the general public, she is like us, She 263 00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:38.399 is like you. I think that's all he was saying. 264 00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:42.080 And you're turning this into some racial thing, which is weird. 265 00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:45.519 I hope can we mentioned anything about race gender? 266 00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:53.000 I will say this. He used the term brought the brothers. 267 00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:54.840 Yeah, he said. 268 00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:56.519 I also want to say that that seems to be 269 00:13:56.559 --> 00:13:59.919 more pronounced with the brothers, right, what does that mean? 270 00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:03.600 He did specifically talk about black men. That is not 271 00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:06.799 a for dispute. And then he also said explicitly quote 272 00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:09.440 part of it makes me think that, well, you just 273 00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:12.000 aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president, 274 00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:14.320 and you're coming up with other alternatives and reasons for that, 275 00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:17.519 and like you said, addressed the brothers. So I mean, 276 00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:20.840 he did talk about gender, and he did incorporate race, 277 00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:23.759 but he did. He didn't incorporate her race as a reason. 278 00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:26.000 No, he was talking specifically about them. 279 00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:29.000 Yeah, so I don't know. 280 00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:34.840 I didn't inject it in there. That's those were his words, 281 00:14:34.919 --> 00:14:37.480 not mine. I mean mine because I said, well, do 282 00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:37.720 you know. 283 00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:38.000 What I mean? 284 00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:42.240 Hey Gary and not Shannon. Hi, Christina, you're knocking it 285 00:14:42.279 --> 00:14:45.600 out of the park girl anyway, just calling in to 286 00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:49.600 say happy early anniversary to the Gary and Shannon Show. 287 00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:53.320 Hope we're going to celebrate on Monday, since you now, 288 00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:56.440 Shannon felt it more important to be with her friends. 289 00:14:56.840 --> 00:14:58.720 Apparently she doesn't love us. 290 00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:00.840 Anyway. 291 00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:02.080 Have a great weekend, you guys. 292 00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:04.879 Yeah, tomorrow is the ninth anniversary of the show. 293 00:15:04.960 --> 00:15:08.120 Happy anniversary?

I'm 298 00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:20.120 just kidding. I mean, unless you're into ramen, maybe you 299 00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:20.600 like it. 300 00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:24.080 If you like high sodium counts in your way to 301 00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:26.159 go a good morning, you too, Happy Friday. 302 00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:27.519 I just want to say, it's like a breath of 303 00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:31.720 fresh air. Having Christina on the show. Someone who is 304 00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:35.320 a real journalist and isn't so one sided I'm biased 305 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.320 in her uh what what she has to say? Even 306 00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:42.639 if she is registered whatever she is, she still see 307 00:15:42.679 --> 00:15:43.519 both sides of the story. 308 00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:44.320 And I love that. 309 00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:46.440 I appreciate it. It's what we need more of in 310 00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:49.519 our country. It's part of the problem the people that 311 00:15:49.600 --> 00:15:53.559 aren't that way. So thank you, Christina. I really appreciate it. 312 00:15:53.559 --> 00:15:55.279 He said, are registered whatever she is? 313 00:15:55.399 --> 00:15:58.799 Oh yeah, yeah, Well I really don't subscribe to either party. 314 00:15:58.799 --> 00:16:01.320 I think they've both left their people. It's about you know. 315 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:05.679 But anyway, first, thank you to him. And secondly, was 316 00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:09.639 that kind of a backhanded compliment. Well, you know, it 317 00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:14.759 was like, yeah, okay, I take it. You do really 318 00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:15.919 well with that, you know. 319 00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:18.679 I don't. I just hide it. I just hide it. 320 00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:22.480 Well, there may be a psychological reason I'm fascinated by 321 00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:25.960 stories like this, psychological reason why some people aren't just 322 00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:31.279 wrong in an argument. They're confidently wrong. I mean, they're 323 00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:35.440 confident about how correct they are, but they're completely wrong. 324 00:16:35.879 --> 00:16:38.159 According to a study published this week in the journal 325 00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:40.960 Plos One, it comes down to believing you have all 326 00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:43.600 the information you need to form an opinion even when 327 00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:46.480 you don't. And I think this boils down to the 328 00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:50.840 old adage of you don't know what you don't know, right. 329 00:16:51.240 --> 00:16:56.440 And that's one quality I think people lack curiosity and 330 00:16:56.480 --> 00:16:58.960 they think, oh, I have sufficient information. They look at 331 00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:02.080 the headline, they make a flash judgment, and voila. They 332 00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:04.759 think they know everything. But it was interesting in this 333 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.839 because what they did in this study, so five hundred 334 00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:10.400 people read a version of the story that was in 335 00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:14.880 favor of this particular issue and then had one neutral point, 336 00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:18.160 and then another five hundred people read a story about 337 00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:21.160 the same issue that was against it and had the 338 00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:25.920 same one neutral point, And ultimately the results showed that 339 00:17:25.960 --> 00:17:28.000 the majority of people were likely to agree with the 340 00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:32.000 argument in favor or against, depending on which they read. Which, 341 00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:34.359 you know, it's no surprise when you think of these 342 00:17:34.359 --> 00:17:37.640 echo chambers were living in how people watch Fox if 343 00:17:37.640 --> 00:17:39.799 they're more right, CNN if they're more left, and then 344 00:17:39.839 --> 00:17:41.559 they kind of just regurgitate what they see. 345 00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:46.599 If you if you have a friend who is completely 346 00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:50.759 opposite you politically and you're both active on social media, 347 00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:54.599 take a moment and scroll through their feed and see 348 00:17:54.640 --> 00:17:57.200 what they see compared to what you see, and it's 349 00:17:57.480 --> 00:18:01.079 very it is should be very eye opening because the 350 00:18:01.160 --> 00:18:03.920 echo chamber thing, when you're in it, you don't know 351 00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:07.480 you're in it. And social media, and I mean everything 352 00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.880 from YouTube to Twitter to Facebook, they all work that way. 353 00:18:12.319 --> 00:18:16.079 You don't know where the walls are in your room. 354 00:18:16.319 --> 00:18:19.279 Yeah, and you So that means you assume, well, everybody 355 00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:21.559 thinks the way I do, everybody feels the way I do, 356 00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:25.200 because everybody on Twitter believes me, or everybody on Twitter 357 00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:25.920 agrees with me. 358 00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:28.160 That that's so not the case. 359 00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:31.000 That means you are failing at life if you don't 360 00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:33.400 see anything in your feed that you disagree with. 361 00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:35.000 Honestly, I mean. 362 00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:38.759 Well, I don't know life feeling failing at the social 363 00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:39.680 media life. 364 00:18:39.480 --> 00:18:40.920 Because then you go you go out in the real 365 00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:45.319 world and you're you're amazed that someone is what pro Palestinian, 366 00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:47.599 or you're amazed that someone wants to vote for the 367 00:18:47.640 --> 00:18:48.319 other candidate. 368 00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:49.559 I can't believe it. 369 00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:52.279 In my town, you're so strange, you don't fit here. 370 00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:55.279 We're so I mean, there's nothing. There is something to 371 00:18:55.279 --> 00:18:58.400 be said that we're so divided. That's not the right word. 372 00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:02.960 We're evenly divided. There's so much of any issue we 373 00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:07.960 can be very evenly divided on but we assume that 374 00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:11.480 the numbers are always in our favor. And that I 375 00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:13.880 mean that I said the term before. I don't think 376 00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:15.359 I'm the one who came up with it, but the 377 00:19:16.000 --> 00:19:20.480 audacity of confidence you you don't even know what the 378 00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:21.440 other side looks like. 379 00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:22.880 Mm hmm. Yeah. 380 00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:27.680 It's interesting because as our population grows, even if you're 381 00:19:27.759 --> 00:19:31.839 one percent of the population, there's millions, you know, like, 382 00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:35.039 there's there's an insane number of people who will agree 383 00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:36.000 with you on. 384 00:19:36.279 --> 00:19:37.279 That crazy issue. 385 00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:39.519 So actually I did a story on QAnon, for example, 386 00:19:39.559 --> 00:19:43.160 that far right wing conspiracy theory that we can go 387 00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:46.319 down a rabbit hole with that. But because those people 388 00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:49.799 are looking at those things online, the algorithm serves them 389 00:19:49.839 --> 00:19:52.039 more of it, so then it's all they're surrounded by 390 00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:53.680 and they're fed more and more and it kind of 391 00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:56.640 reinforces their own beliefs. That's happening to all of us 392 00:19:56.640 --> 00:20:00.279 on different levels. There's this poet that said something that 393 00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:04.559 I always think is so interesting that he says something 394 00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:06.880 like I don't know who discovered or I don't know 395 00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:11.039 how discovered water, but it wasn't a fish, meaning you 396 00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:14.240 don't recognize the environment in which you exist, right, yeah, 397 00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:14.599 to your. 398 00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:16.119 Point, right now, you don't know where the walls are. 399 00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:19.000 I totally butchered that poet's work, and I apologize. 400 00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:23.000 At least you didn't claim credit for it. That would 401 00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:23.920
