What is the highlight of human civilization according to Scott Adams?

Scott Adams 0:03
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. You've never had a better time. But if you'd like to take this experience up to levels you can't even understand with your tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank of Chelsea Stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and darn it, it's going to happen right now. Go. That's the good stuff. Well, let's start with the fake news first. We might get to something that's somewhat real.

So I saw a headline, I think it was in The Hill, said that top vaccine official at FDA resigns, citing RFK Jr. misinformation. Now, if you saw that headline, would you think that the top vaccine official decided he couldn't work there because RFK Jr. was full of misinformation, because that's what it says. But if you read the article, it says that he was asked to resign or be terminated.

What does Scott Adams think about the FDA vaccine official's resignation?

In other words, he was fired. So first he's fired, and then he's disgruntled, and then he says that RFK Jr. only wants misinformation. I wouldn't take any of that seriously. If you fire somebody in that situation, what do you think they're going to say? Do you think they're going to say, you know, RFK Jr. was really right. I wasted my entire career. Everything I believed was probably wrong. I just don't want to stay around to figure it out. No, no. They're going to say that the new boss is terrible. And if you understood how bad that new boss is, you would understand that they had to quit. I mean, it was a matter of principle. Fake news. Here's probably fake news. The Post Millennial is reporting that, well, the Post Millennial is not the fake part. They got the story right.

But Annapolina Luna says that NBC has a video that allegedly shows Lee Harvey Oswald and attending the event at the time of the shooting. And if that were true, he could not have been the lone shooter up in the window because you can't be in two places at the same time. And so they have some source that says that NBC has been sitting on this video forever. And do you think that's true?

Is there evidence of Lee Harvey Oswald being at the Kennedy shooting?

Scott Adams 3:04
Do you think NBC has a video? This shows Lee Harvey Oswald sort of hanging out at a place that means he couldn't have been the shooter. I'm going to take a really big bet against that being true. Here's what I think is true. Have you seen the old grainy black and white videos from the Kennedy shooting? You could find any one of us in that crowd because we all look like blotches. Here would be a good test. Do you think you couldn't find somebody who looks just like me standing in the crowd? Of course you could. Now, I was only six years old or something when it happened. But could you find me in the crowd? Yes, you could. Do you think that most of you, if you're, I think, mostly white guys at the time, do you think if you were a 40-year-old white guy, do you think there was no video of that day that showed a blotchy black and white guy that looks a lot like you? So first of all, I don't believe it exists. Secondly, even if it did exist, NBC is the last entity that would give it to you.

Because I don't know personally, but NBC has often been accused of being in bed with the CIA. So do you think you're ever going to see that video and you're going to look at it and you say, oh, that is clearly Lee Harvey Oswald. You can see it so clearly? I'm going to bet against it. If you do see something, it's going to be a blotch. And if you don't see something, that would be more understandable. So I wouldn't wait for that. According to Musk's Doge team, you know, they're getting rid of a lot of government facilities, and some of them would include the ability to make a phone call or the ability to go in person to do this or that retirement thing. But they're thinking of building what they call an Apple Store-like experience. Now, I assume that means actually a place you go to. And it does seem to me that that would be the right model if they could do it. The thing I love about the Apple Store is that you can go there for your phone or your watch or your laptop or any of their products, and they can help you.
