It's the only option, even though you'll have, like, my rice floating everywhere, and they're like, excuse me, hey, hey, chicken leg, come back here. Hello? Like, hello? Oh, the fish is going away. Red Snapper, come back to me, baby. Yeah, you got it. But that's cool. So, yeah, listen to me. I love science fiction, comics about science fiction. Oh, my God.
I have a big collection of comics, of manga, and it has to do with food even more, but about the space even more. And, yeah, one day I hope, yeah, we'll meet again. We'll meet aliens, and they'll be good people. and will be great people. And hopefully we will not charge them any tariffs so we can do good commerce. And maybe they will bring a different species of animals to increase our diet.
Let's hope it's that, okay? Let's hope it's that and it's not, as I said, that they are waiting for planet Earth to be 10, 20 billion people, all of us obese. That's why the best way People of America, the best way to fight against an alien invasion of planet Earth is that we all stay fit. We don't get overweight, and we are lean, a lot of muscle, not a lot of fat.
Because that day, that alien civilization will learn that we are not a harvest worth having because we are too lean, and they cannot feed their own planets.
Well, I don't think that's a good strategy because I think some of the most delicious food is wild game, and wild game is very lean, you know? Okay. I think it's a terrible strategy. I think what we really, our real hope is that they've moved beyond that. I think our real hope is that they've moved beyond commerce. That's the real hope.
I mean, everybody's all, look, I'm not saying communism is good because it's terrible. Communism doesn't work with human beings because we're not prepared for communism. But I do think that if we evolve past these primate instincts that we have and we genuinely develop some sort of a sense of real intimacy and community with everybody on Earth, we would share resources. Totally. Yes.
And our real fascination would be in contributing resources. to whether it's contributing to knowledge, contributing to art, contributing to whatever it is. Instead of constant competition, our competition would be with ourselves to make better things and to do better and to achieve better. But that's gonna have to come with, we're gonna have to evolve past the way we interact with each other.
And I think we're slowly doing that. I think human beings are slowly but surely doing that. And when you have like well-minded people who want to embrace Marxism and socialism, I think that's really the heart of it. It's like, well, it's a good idea at a bad time. We're not prepared for that as human beings. But I think...
If we get to a point where we could all read each other's minds, which I think is on the horizon, we get to a point where information is instantaneous. We get to a point where how do you have money if money is ones and zeros and then there's no such thing as encryption anymore because you have quantum computing. And so you can't just keep money.
You can't just get where we're going to have to develop a way as we advance as a society, as a species. to share resources, to share resources in a genuinely equitable way.
It's beyond our comprehension now as territorial apes, but I think that's the future of the human species, is that one day we reach this peak where we realize that our true competition is within ourselves, within our own minds, and to do the best that we can for the overall greater good of the species, and then hopefully the greater good of the universe itself.
Building longer tables. Building longer tables. What is good for you is good for me. Yes. Take a look at India and Pakistan right now. Right now, there's many issues that religion, territory, but one of them is water. Resources. Resources.
Which is really everybody's. It's the world's resources.
And what do we do to make sure that, as you said, what is good for me must be good for you.
What we have to do is stop making the same mistakes over and over and over again. And those same mistakes involve conflict. brings it back to conflict and war and people leading groups of people that don't understand what's going on and forcing them to do things that are horrific.
Do you think if more woman will be in power? No. Will be less war?
No, no, that's not going to do it. I mean, it's a great idea, but you're a woman boss. They turn into tyrants too. It's human beings. Human beings should not have power over large groups of human beings because power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. It almost always does. That's why there's so many checks and balances in our system of government.
To try to mitigate the impact of human psychology when they achieve great power over everyone else. Because people just become tyrants. And I think that is the hurdle. That's the hurdle to becoming a part of the galactic civilization. The hurdle is we have to get past that. We have to evolve as a species. And my suspicion is that somehow technology plays a part in that.
And the interconnectivity that we're achieving through technology is going to advance our ability to understand each other. And it's going to advance our ability to communicate. And it's going to force us to come up with some sort of a new way to share resources.
Obviously, the biggest resource for me is food and is water.
