Except everybody shut up and anybody who says, anybody who objects is a conspiracy nut.
Well... My wife and I saw the UFO. We saw him. And I saw him twice in my life.
I agree. But here's the other thing I think, that if the front page, does people read newspapers anymore? I do. The New York Times still publishing?
I would love to know where Mogadishu is. Where is it? Come on. That's where I left it, right? My point, or it's going to be in the last place I look, but my point about the New York Times, it's funny that they're still publishing, is that if they came out with the big scare head tomorrow, Aliens Land in New Jersey, everybody would say, yeah, okay. Don't you think? Yeah, what else is new, right?
Not that they'd seen UFOs, but I got my plate full already, okay? I got to deal with this, I got to deal with that. So does aliens here. The gig is on the hate.
Sure.
Well, the big changes in civilization Everything changed. First one was the industrial revolution. And the second one is the computer revolution. So we're in the midst of being, everybody in the Western world is undergoing a certain kind of moderate cognitive dissonance because nothing makes any sense anymore. So because they're undergoing cognitive dissonance, they do what somebody does.
They lose their mind and start looking for people to blame. Right. whether that's Biden or whether it's Trump or whether that's the transsexuals or the transphobes, whether it's Israel or et cetera, et cetera, whether it's tariffs or lack of tariffs, people want, rather than having cognitive dissonance and being, in effect, basically catatonic by the change, they want to be able to become phobic.
and say, okay, I get it. It's that, right? It's just like crazy people say, it's that guitar that's trying to kill me, right? Because they're nuts. So to a certain extent, we're nuts.
Yeah, and it's exactly what 51% of the people would say about the left.
Well, the problem is there's no party anymore. There's no Democratic Party anymore. It's completely fragmented. It might reform, but when they keep saying we have to find a message, we have to find a message. Well, if you don't have a fucking message, what are you doing being a political party?
That's certainly true.
But we will back that. But why are we living here? As Elon said, it's the most expensive weather in the world.
But, you know, my wife grew up in Scotland. And like anyone who comes from the British Isles, the moment they see California, they say, you know, everything I left behind, fuck it. You can't get me out of here. You know, it's nice. It's beautiful weather 400 days a year.
Because the problem about being overtaxed is, A, it's confiscatory. Is that because I got a couple bucks? Probably, but it's also because what's the money being used for? Because it's not being used for the cops. It's not being used for the fire department. The schools are the worst in the nation. Terrible. So why are the taxes going up?
Well, I know how to fix that is elect him. Elect him, he'll go right back to the left.
Yeah, but some of them aren't, some of them aren't. I mean, I really, Futterman is doing, is extraordinary because he's a Democrat who's actually has self-respect, the opposite of which is shame. They'll say any fucking thing in order to get a vote or money or airtime. I think that's a concept which is kind of foreign to Gavin Newsom. I get it.
As the election time comes closer, the liars are going to come closer to trying to lure more people in. The funny thing to me is that anyone still listens to their pronouncements rather than looking at their record. Have you driven through the Palisades in Malibu?
I'm kidding. I did it because I was over there visiting somebody, and they gave me a pass to come back through. It's beyond anything. I mean, it's out miles and miles and miles. And then you get off of the PCH and drive up Sunset into the Pacific Palisades, one of the richest, most beautiful communities in the United States, which burnt down because they didn't have any water in the reservoir.
Well, here's what I think. I mean, whether they're a lesbian or not, I couldn't care less, and it certainly doesn't affect their ability to do the job. But the woman who I believe was the fire commissioner issued a statement when she first got the job saying that her first priority was going to infuse equity and inclusion and DEI. Yes, yes.
