That's the thing that scares me the most.

And that's probably the reason why I'm the most disaffected about all of this is I'm not sure this is even right to reveal.

Because if that's true, I'm just accelerating along the inevitable.

I look at our civilization, I go, there's no chance.

We're going to definitely destroy ourselves with this.

Just a matter of time, just a matter of when.

Like I said with the Iran situation, this is why my politics are the way they are with respect to that situation, is that we simply can never let anybody that would strap a bomb to themselves ever have this technology, ever.

And you could take it a step further and say it's not just about people that have strapped bombs, though.

Certain people with certain ideologies...

that are anarchistic or what have you can never have this.

This is why I get freaked out about when Peter Thiel was on with Joe Rogan, because I know he knows based on what he said.

He said, what if the aliens, what if the aliens either have to be all angels or all demons?

And why did he say that?

He said that because the only way that a civilization wouldn't destroy themselves with this super technology would be as if you have complete control over everybody, or if everybody's just perfectly altruistic.

Now, which side do you think we're on?

Think we're closer to the angels or you think we're closer to the demons?

Closer to controlling everybody.

So, and maybe that's what they're trying to do with Palantir, with all this other stuff, with the phones tracking us all the time.

Maybe they see the future and they go, huh, the only way we don't destroy ourselves is if we move to a police state, one world government.

where we have perfect tracking of everybody on the planet.
