Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

That's epigenetic.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

I don't think the...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

That changes the nature of man.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

I think, for example, if I say someone, which I agree with, that someone is innocent until proven guilty, they're not literally innocent.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

They're regarded in a legal context as innocent, but that person is or is not a murderer or thief or so on and so forth.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

So we can...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

Legally and ethically regard everyone as equal, but as Thomas Sowell pointed out, a human being isn't even equal to himself over the course of a day.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

Twins who are genetic clones are not equal to one another.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

So it is an important thing legally, and it's a good yardstick, but it's not literally true.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

No, I think it's a complete red herring because no one is- No, you're a red herring.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

See what I did there?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

Because people are still going to always prefer their family to strangers or their in-group to out-group.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

So in terms of if you're going to have equality, that means it's going to not matter to you whether someone is your mom or someone is someone down the street.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

And I don't see how that will ever become the case.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

No, I don't think at all.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

I think there was so many...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

out of nowhere turns that no one would have seen them coming.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

And as an example, Lenin seizing power and making the Bolshevik revolution a reality was regarded as utopian and insane.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

The fact that he pulled it off is close to miraculous, and it was quite literally unprecedented.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#347 โ€“ Michael Malice: Christmas Special

So that's a very big one.
