Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the George Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong, Ketty Armstrong and get.
Enough He.
Armstrong and Getty Strong.
A dangerous new act between two of America's staunchest adversaries, with promises to defend one another against aggression by the US and its allies. The agreement comes after Kim Jong un eagerly welcomed Vladimir.
Putin to Pyongyang.
Putin calling this a breakthrough document between the two countries, which he said raises the relationship to a new level and backing what he called Kim's right to strengthen its own defense capability, adding that Russia did not exclude the development of military technical call operation.
It's Martha Ratt. It's a very serious person on ABC News. I won't get two off track with the fact that, Hey, newscasts of America, this is a big deal. Is your a Homas Big freaking deal? How much were we gonna fund Ukraine? Big free deal? Presidential election? Big deal? You know what's not a big deal. It'd being hot in the summer. Don't give me ten minutes. It's if it's hot in the summer. And then justin Timberlake said, do you I before you get to this stuff.
But anyway, well and come on, how about twenty play twenty three for us, Michael.
This major part of ABC News last night.
Then Homer Alaska the delicate Baby Moose Rescue Tour, upidter Spencer Warren round of a baby moose trapped in a lake between the floatplane and the dock and overprotective mother moose not letting them get near to help. So two officers playing a hand, one officer temporarily blocking the mother while the other two men pulled the baby out of the water.
Mother moose then took it from there.
Baby moose, baby moose, him being into the lake, Baby moose.
Sorry weather, justin Timberlake and baby moose rescue.
And not the axis of a holes threatening nuclear holocaust on us.
All back to something important and that's putin visiting fathead there in North Korea two nuclear powers. There are only what seven on Earth, and that's two of them, and they would love to use them on us if they got the chance. I found this part of it from NBC News, entertaining.
North Korea's Kim Jonglin pulling out all the stops in an elaborately choreographed state visit for Russian President Vladimir Putin, cheered by crowds of children with balloons, then in the front seat with Putin behind the wheel. Earlier a friendly debate over who would be first into Kim's car, which was a gift from Putin last year.
If you didn't see the video that, so you got Putin and fat heead after you and after you, and then kind of pushing each other and laughing, throwing back their heads and laughter, and of course the subconscious of both of those would be you know, I would kill you and torture you if it's to my benefit. Yeah, me too. We agree on that. I mean, this whole agreement they have, Okay, fine, and it's scary, and I don't like them coming together, but Russia will come to North Korea's aid if it's in their interest. If it's not, they won't, right, I mean, NATO, I'm not even certain we'll hold together on Article five if it comes down to defending Estonia. You think Russia's gonna actually defend North Korea or vice versa unless it's in their benefit. I mean, come on, so whatever that pact means.
But I just think it's so interesting to see all these totalitarian regimes that are utterly unlike each other, oh, joining together because hey, you hate the US led international order, Yeah we do too, Let's get together. I mean, what the hell does Tehran have to do with with Pyongyang, for instance, other than their totalitarian.
What did Japan have to do with Nazi Germany? But yeah, we were fighting them both at the same time. Here's CNN's version of that same story.
Shut you have tens of thousands of people in the streets of central Pyongyang in a highly choreographed display of welcoming affection for Vladimir Putin. He was paraded, standing shoulder to shoulder with the North Korean dictator. People were I mean, they do this all the time, but they were clapping as if their lives depended on it, and perhaps their lives.
Did depend on it, you know, because their lives did depend on it. I and everyone thought that after nineteen ninety one, in the wall falling, in the Soviet Union breaking up, that was the end of these giant parades of people at basically at gunpoint, cheering for dictators as nuclear weapons rolled through the street. But nope, guess not happened yesterday, and it's the same country, Russia now with North Korea.
I'm persuaded by the great Stephen Pinker, who in his recent book, one of the things he's talking about is that dictatorship totalitarianism is intuitive. The whole strong leader of the tribe takes control. Everybody has to obey him, and and that's the way it works. A democracy, a representative government, is counterintuitive. It's it's hard to get going. It's a it's a rarity in history. And so the idea that that we had that you know, the world is now going toward democracy and and getting along in peace and prosperity, and we don't have to worry about evil totalitarian regimes. It's just manua mental naivete. Hard to believe anybody bought it, but a lot of people didn't.
You put me in a time machine and dropped me one hundred years from now. I wouldn't be shocked if there wasn't a democracy on the planet. I hope that's not the direction it goes. I don't wouldn't predict that, but wouldn't be shocking. Here's James Trevitus on NBC News. He was a former NATO.
They're not revealing yet.
The details of the agreement they've signed. Sounds a lot like a mutual defense pack to me, each nation would be obligated to defend the other.
That's quite significant.
That's what we have for example with Japan, with South Korea, with Australia, with our Pacific Alliance. We don't want to see Putin start to build something with North Korea along those lines.
Yeah, these people are all a lot smarter than me. I just can't imagine that these evil people you can trust them to stand up for you unless it's in their interest, I mean, like really really in their interest.
Right, And they're both incredibly smart, conniving dictators, so they'll figure out how to keep the mutual interest in going, you know, as long as it serves them. Russia's getting tons and tons of munitions to use against Ukraine. I meanwhile, Russian is going to prop Russia is going to prop up the North with the money and like technology for advance to weaponry like nuclear warheads.
I don't know if you recall, but Stalin and Hitler signed a pact that they would be BSFs forever and didn't work out that way. The idea of North Korea having some technology to actually use their nukes, of course, is horrifying. They may or may not have a hypersonic missile already. Who knows it's you know, I'm reading a book. It's probably not the best bedtime reading to try to help me sleep. I wonder why I wake up in the middle of the night. I'm reading Nuclear War, which I listened to a podcast with this woman Annie Jacobson. Great book. I mean, she interviewed every living player that has had anything to do with nuclear war ever and all kinds of secretaries of defense and tech people and around the world and everything like that. It's supposed to be and I think it is the best book ever written on and where we are, on the threat of nuclear war and things that have happened in the past, all that sort of stuff. But I mean, it is freaking frightening though. The fact that the world has been able to put on the back burner, the fact that we have the ability to destroy ourselves for all these years, is stunning, and it's kind of coming back closer and closer to the front burner.
Let me affirm your judgment that that is almost an hilariously.
Bad choice for a bedtime raad.
I mean that is it might be the worst thing you could conceivably unless it's no how about nighttime suburban home invasions, A brief history just before you close your peepers to go to sleep at night.
Like she interviewed this guy. I forget his name, I could look it up. He was in the government and he went to this meeting in the sixties. It was in the Nuclear Strategic Command bunker in Omaha, Nebraska. That's the place that George Bush went to after nine to eleven. And it's a deep, deep underground and that's where if we end up in World War three fire and newts at Russia, that's where it'll be run from.
Oh great, and you've disclosed this, but they're high classified.
There's a meeting in the sixties and this guy nobody'd ever breathed the word of it until this guy was in his eighties and near death and thought, I can't take this to the grave. I want people to know. And he went to this meeting with all the heavyweights at the time and they unveiled the plan with this giant map for how we were going to hit Russia if we had to, and all the places the bombs would hit. I mean, we had the full plan going, and we believed we would kill six hundred and sixty million people in about an hour if we had to go toough And nobody had breathed the word of this meeting, and this guy just thought that people ought to know that we had planned what he called a genocide. I don't know that you need to use that word. I don't think that word is appropriate given the context. It would be his self defense. It's not a f strike thing. But anyway, and the current belief is that if there was a nuclear wall full on exchange with US in China or Russia most likely cases, two billion people are killed and then a lot of the world uninhabitable for basically forever.
Yeah, which has constrained humans from exchanging nuclear ordinance. But if you've got an apocalyptic regime like Irans might be, for instance, that just that's unthinkable. But we have to think about it. Absolutely don't have to, and not at bedtime. Put somebody out of be thinking about it.
So I was reading that before I went to bed. Earlier, when I was walking the dog, I had been listening to the New Cold Wars of David sangerbook, and he was going through the part of after Russia invaded Ukraine, and I had not heard this reporting before. So Joe Biden gave a speech and a fundraiser thing. You might remember this. We talked about it a lot, where he said we're closer to nuclear war than we've and everybody's like, what it just was jaw dropping. It was jaw dropping to everybody around him, like why.
Did you say that?
Should you be saying that you're scaring the hell out of people? The room went quiet, and it wasn't revealed at the time, but it's in this book. We were intercepting communications among the Russians where they were discussing it full on a using a tactical nuke, not like a big, you know, intercontinental ballistic missile, but a tactical nuke. And nobody knows how the world would react to a tactical nuke, yet that would be you know, you fire went off and take out an entire division of the Ukrainian military or wipe out an entire town at once or whatever. And the Russians were discussing it, which is why Joe Biden, who's very undisciplined with these things, brought it up in a closed door meeting and it leaked out immediately. So it's kind of ish on the table, or at least has been for the cat last couple of years. And again, how do we react, do you? I don't know, and nobody knows how the world react if somebody, once again, for the first time in eighty years, uses nukes.
Well, I appreciate you standing watch there and being up on this stuff. I'm going to deal with it the same way I dealt with it in the seventies. Listen to Boston's first album and try not to think about it.
I just think it's amazing that everybody does that. And there are the alternative, more discussion about our policies, more thought of her who ought to be in charge, No, come back to the Stone Age. That's our policy, huh. We elect our presidents without much question of what would your policy be if this?
If that, we don't know, strategic ambuguity. We just hope it won't happen. I guess there's a lot of that. Yeah, you just as the Great Sting put it in the nineties. I hope the Russians love their children too, And thus far that has been enough.
Yeah.
Do you hope the Iranians love their children too? Or the Iranian government? I mean not the Iranian people because like as we know, Hamas doesn't in their same ideology, they don't love their children well.
And if you're a religious fanatic and you think, all right, ninety percent of the population is wiped out, but that will bring on the most devout Islamic kingdom ever seen. We re establish the caliphe to the glory of the prophet, blah blah blah. Yeah, I can absolutely see them heaving nukes around. Okay, I promise not to bring this up for a month. Somebody write that down on a calendar. I will not bring this up for one month, even though I'm reading I'd like to read before I go camping is stories about axe murderers in the woods. I mean, I just find that early in bear attacks those two things. Listen to podcasts, read this great hell, why can't I sleep at night?
Okay, more on the way Jack Armstrong and Joe Armstrong and Getty show.
Multiple media outlets are struggling like crazy as Google, Facebook and to lesser extent x Twitter tweak their algorithms to reduce the amount of news users view and their feeds while keeping eyeballs and clicks for the tech behemoths themselves.
They're not sending you to news organizations.
They're producing the content and trying to keep your eyeballs all day long. Wh's just you know, one more reminder that big tech man, anything that powerful has got to be watched really, really carefully.
But he makes the point that a.
Steady flow of traffic has come to a halt, diminishing a critical stream of ad revenue, not only for the WAPO, which has had a catastrophic, catastrophic loss in you know, clickers, readers, to ad sales, all of it, but also for NBC, ABC, CBSCNN, Time, BuzzFeed, NPR, and many others. Some conservative publications are seeing a big drop in readership for the same reason. Breitbart, for example, his tally to seventy six percent decrease in traffic comparing February twenty four to February twenty twenty. Wow, and February twenty twenty the pandemic shutdowns hadn't really geared up yet, So it's a pretty decent apples Taples Flake Park does a really good job.
By the way, I think, Yeah, that is amazing.
At the Blaze, the drop is sixty seven percent, daily caller is down fifty seven percent. We're actually doing pretty well as a show.
That's that's funny. I was just thinking, why are we doing so well well, brilliant?
Well.
The industry as a whole, though, is struggling against the big tech behemoths and their influence and their ability to you know, hold onto your eyeballs as it were. Yeah, I don't, I don't know if I have any point. I just thought I had not realized that even your really popular conservative web sites, your liberal websites, just everything's down as the voracious appetite of Zuckerberg, Pitch Eye and their ilk just consume everything.
Right, And I feel like, like regular people that I talk to that aren't super news junkies, they just kind of get it from the air. I mean, it just kind of comes to them from It's not the New York Times or CNN or Armstrong.
Angus, it's their feed on social media.
It just kind of gets to them well.
And the problem with that, obviously is from time immemorial, independent media could support itself through ad sales, and that's becoming harder and harder and harder. And I mean at the point that can you imagine Bright bar at the Blaze, the Daily Caller, the Washington Times, you know, all of the great conservatives, the National Review. If all that stuff goes away and it's just Markus Zuckerberg giving you your.
News, ooh boy.
And his only interest in the news really is what gets you to stay on Facebook longer or Instagram longer.
Well, and to the extent that he has a news philosophy, it is progressive.
Man. I hate that idea.
If I was a would be dictator of some sort, I'd be licking my chops at that.
The Armstrong and.
Getty show, yeah, or Jack or Joe podcasts and our hot links?
Are you done with DEI try MEI merit excellence and intelligence. That means we only hire the best person for the job. We seek out and demand excellence, and we unapologetically prefer people who are very smart. We treat everyone as an individual. We do not unfairly stereotype, token eyes or otherwise treat anyone as a member of a demographic group.
Rather than as an individual.
You remember we did that awful, awful on stage debate thing with a bunch of progressives that devolved into just awfulness. But I always remember this because I'd never heard this before because I'm a big on merit based everything. I want everything practically to be merit based. And we're talking about immigration actually, and I was for merit based immigration and one of the progressives said, everybody knows, that's just a dog whistle for racism. Well, really, merit based is dog whistle for racism. And that was the first time I'd ever even heard it. I didn't even know how to respond to that charge. Well, that's a committed progressive. They call everything racism and a huge percent of the population, so, oh my god, I'm not a racist.
I'll just be quiet.
But is that one of the reasons that DEI is pushed as opposed to merit based is the theory that it's racist somehow?
Well, yeah, I mean you always have to differentiate between the true believers, the activists, and the useful idiots. Useful idiots actually think they're doing the right thing for the right reason. The activists are just trying to overthrow the system, and they call everything racist so they can make it stop, or they call people racists to get them out of the way. Because you're not as a corporation or a senator. You're not going to employ a racist, So they call everybody a racist to get rid of them anyway, or to win every argument.
It's so lazy and stupid.
I can't believe they've gotten over as far as they have, but they have anyway. Owen Anderson is the name of a professor at Arizona State University. We talked to him a couple of months ago. He and our friends at the Goldwater Institute are suing Arizona State University, and Owen wrote a great piece for National Review. Since we've talked to him already. I won't quote much of it, but I want to quote some of it. He's been teaching philosophy and religious study for more than two decades, and now Arizona State all of a sudden requiring all professors to take DEI training. And he says, I'm in favor of each of those terms diversity, including intellectual diversity, equity if that means the equality of opportunity and inclusion helping people from all background succeed in the university. But that's not what it means though. All every word the neo Marxists use is.
Code to win the day.
Anyway, But he says, when I began the mandatory training, I found something troubling. It engaged in race blaming, warning of the supposed problem of whiteness, and encouraging judgment of people based on their skin color. I could not in good conscience continue such a racist training. And the idea that you have to it's mandatory. It's like their fire safety and no sexual harassment training. You have to take this anti whiteness training. And so he and Goldwater are suing the university, and I think they have a really good chance of winning.
That'd be hard to stomach.
Yeah, and he goes into a lot of the detail, But I think we're all up on the insidiousness of DEI for the empteenth time and all DEI programs everywhere they exist. Immediately last week and somehow this flew under my personal radar. Senator jd Vance, who is a fascinating guy. He did a long interview with The New York Times recently that I've got to re because he is a ball of contradictions. But anyway, he and Representative Michael Cloud introduced the dismantled DEI Act. It immediately attracted twenty co sponsors in Congress, and as as that, oh, the editors of the National Review say, we hope the momentum picks up. The bill would bar school accreditation agencies from requiring DEI in schools, and stop financial agencies like Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange from instituting diversity requirements for corporate boards. It would also effectively rescind President Biden's June twenty five to twenty one executive order, which pushed DEI requirements and I indeas into quote all parts of the federal workforce. What shocks me is how something so openly overtly racist hasn't been successfully challenged already, whether judicially or legislatively. I mean the notion that, oh, only white people can be racist because they have the power Racismally, they've define the term racism and I could find it. Some of the big stupid blanking dictionaries have even done this. They have had the same definition of racism for one hundred and fifty years, but now it's Racism is a belief used by the most powerful in society to keep others down right. So the idea that the black people who hate Asian people, or the Chinese people who hate Japanese people, or that they can be racist. No, that's impossible, which is again idiotic that they point out the Executive Order alone helps sustain an entire private industry of DEI consultancies and lobby groups, giving all federal agencies the power and the mandate to contract for diversity and sensitive trainings. How much is the government spent on DEI training? Keeping in mind that if they spend it, somebody got it, And the point is that they gave money to people who will always support Democrats. But it's insidious. I'm gonna keep an eye on this. Dismantle DEI, Bill Man, I'd love to see that pass.
I don't think, like what percentage of Americans.
Know that.
DEI those three words, what the actual result is opposed to what you think the meaning is of them, It's still pretty low. Yeah, it'll take a long time for that to soak into society where people realize diversity, equity, inclusion is not what it sounds like because at first plush you think, well, who could be against him?
Well, right, yeah, workers of the world unite, you know, throw off your chains. All of that stuff is rhetorically great, it's really good, you know, political rhetoric, propaganda, it's persuasive. Marxists are good at that, Revolutionaries in general are good at that.
I'm a little sore today. Went to the gym last night. Joined a jim, haven't I haven't been a member of a gym in decades, or maybe I'm still a member of Gold's gym somewhere and it's still charging my credit card every month after all these years. It's quite passible ucause it's really hard to quit a gym, as we all know. But I joined this gym because my son is working out with a coach. The football players are working out, and he's got to be there for an hour three times a week. So good for me. I'll be there for an hour three times a week. But I'm I was always a freewaight guy when I was younger, but now I'm doing the machines. It takes me so long to figure out what each machine is for. They got like a hundred machines this giant gym, and I walk around, I think, is that for your feet? For your hands, for your back? I don't know. That thing looks like me?
Do you sit there?
Sometimes? I think I get on and am I Am I facing the wrong direction? Or am I supposed to?
Oh?
Yeah, don't they all have like instructions like right there on them. Some of them do what some of them don't. I think I don't even know what part of my body to put there and which.
Way I'm supposed to face.
I'm supposed to be lying. I have a feeling somebody's gonna come by and I'm like working on my arms. They say that's for your calves. I mean, I don't know what you're doing there.
I don't even know how you got in that position, you know.
I've worked with a couple of trainers, physical therapists, and they all say, they say, I don't want you on that machine that just works on one muscle group. You got to work on that muscle group and all the muscle groups that surround you. Well, that's why that's so integrated, unless you got a specific USh.
Why free weights are so much better is in general.
But I don't know.
I'm old and lazier. So machine. There's a lot of swol guys on the machine, so they must be doing something for them. Oh yeah, it's better than nothing, for sure. Everything is better than nothing. I want a Jack Armstrong workout video. Oh well, a lot of it would be me walking around the machine. That's what I want.
What the hell is this exactly like Joe Biden gym? Exactly?
Are you working out in jeans and cowboy boots or do you actually don athletic wear for that?
I was wearing gymnasium shoes and some sort of khaki pants and.
A T shirt.
Well, you wear long pants. I'm not gonna wear shorts. Nobody, no grown up should wear shorts. Nobody wants to see your old man legs.
I know. Can you imagine, Katie.
I've been working with this guy for like thirty two years and it is still a wonder Tony.
I'm you wear long pants that aren't sweatpants to the gym. No khakis, Cat, you're wearing khakis. You may be the only guy in America who works out in khakis.
Yeah.
Wait a second.
With checking Europe, yep, same, I would rather you in shorts than khakis. No, No, I don't think they wear a lot of shorts in Europe because they have class long pants under protest only because it's cold. Oh men, legs should not be shown to any Nobody should have to look at that.
I'm not telling you to wear Daisy Dukes, but throwing some basketball shorts.
By the way, what is scene can't be seen.
I didn't know this. My son got a pair of these really long shorts, like they go down below the knees. They're really long and wide and like and he told me, he said, man, I got so many compliments on these today. Wall Street Journal had an article over the weekend that is the super cool, forward thinking hipster shorts is the really long, wide shorts for like up and coming CEOs and all that sort of stuff, according to the Wall Street Journal. And whether you're like a rapper or a you know, a go go, you know, you're the guy who wears tennis shoes with your suit, that kind of guy. Those are the shorts people are wearing.
I guess I'm gonna let you know that ninety five percent of the women that see those are calling them caprice behind your back.
That's what I told my son. I said, how are those not capri pants? He said, word a kopee pants. I said, those those are creepants. Girls wear them, son, So I don't know, have you seen that out in public among the shorts wearing crown, I have not. I mean the Wall Street Journal is not you know, I can't even name a magazine that would be for young super hit people. I mean it's the Wall Street freaking Journal saying you know their crowd, and I guess that's the shorts a right. I'm not part of that culture either, Yeah, go ahead, go ahead. Were are shorts that the people laugh at in the year, those shorts with the high socks?
Right?
Is that like the thing?
Right?
So there's like no skin really in between?
Boy, No, I'm talking about your go go executives. Youngsters wear what the other youngsters are wearing. Go ahead, Why wouldn't you?
That's fine?
Yeah, but the and you know, I see that stuff in the Wall Street Journal or somehow we got on GQ's mailing list, and man, all that stuff.
Okay, go ahead?
Were that it lasts for about a cup of coffee. But if that gets you ahead in your Wall Street career, go ahead. I would agree you look like a dunce. If you're a teenager, where what the other teenagers are wearing. It'll make you more friends and get you a girlfriend or a boyfriend or pick your subgroup. But past that point, why are you paying any attention.
I can't imagine.
And then are you reading articles in the Wall Street Journal to figure out what shorts to wear? I found that interesting. Also, who's that for exactly? I would think the people that care about that sort of thing found out a different way than reading the style section of the Wall Street Journal.
People who want fashion advice from the Wall Street Journal. I can't imagine how your brain works.
Come on, I'm actually somewhat nervous today, which does that very often. I'm looking at a couple of homes. I might buy a house, and I just I just have this worry that I'm making the bigger mistakes of my life. It's only I think. I think it's I think it's driven by the fact that I got burned bad in the big crash of oh eight or whatever it was.
Oh five is five?
Even leaning away, yeah, from the idea of by it, but I bought it was almost it was.
It was like how you want to time the market sometime and get lucky. I timed the market like almost to the day the wrong direction.
I bought at the very peak, and like a month later I lost several hundred thousand dollars. Weeks later, Wow, Well, since you are the cooler, you can bring down sports teams even whole economies. Just please let us know when you do that, so the rest of us can I don't know, stuck up on canned goods, or take out a home something, burn it down for the insurance.
I don't know. Sometime you don't mind, Jack, I like to sell my home first. And really, the wonder about the housing market I just bring up, is it ties together? I mean, the geopolitics is more unsettled than it's been since World War Two, and a lot of your like leading experts in this say that, And then you've got practically all experts in the economy talking about we've never seen this before, We've never had this number this high, and this number this low, and the most of this and least that. At the same time, there's no models for this, and the real estate markets certainly that it's weirder than it's ever been. Nobody has any idea what's going to happen. So it's just there's so much unsettled everything. And then I also feel like we kind of are pretending that a lot of this will get get figured out by choosing either Biden or Trump. On election day and then then well, then these things are taken care of one way or the other, and we'll move on with our lives, which is just so not true.
No, No, that's a ridiculous idea.
The thing that bothers me the most is, in the midst of all this uncertainty and unprecedented ness, you have certain trends like government spending that have decided to, like a suicidal cokehead.
Just see how far we can push it.
We've already pushed it further than anybody's ever pushed it. We're at peace time. It's a good economy, but we're spending enormous deficits. We're piling onto the debt our interest, our interest payments are already more than national defense.
Let's push it further.
I mean it's like, okay, I guess we're getting the government we deserve. Sorry, one more straight thought, we're getting the government we deserve. If we were committing a sex crime while defiling a pharaoh's tomb, I mean, if we're Hunter Biden ten years ago, right, if we're actually killing people and eating them, I mean, Great Scott.
The disturbing images of Stonehenge. Climate activist Spring Orange powder on the ancient mode and even thinke, which of course is different thousands of years visitors, they're trying to stop them.
It comes just poor.
Huge crowds are expected for the summer solstice.
I got so angry when I saw this, as a lot of people did these jackasses. Here's what I advocate. I don't advocate violence, but I advocate a policy of violence. So this just wouldn't be vigil anybodyose this would be the official policy, Okay, carefully deliberated violence. Yeah, which I say because if I advocate violence on the air and somebody does it, I'm libel or something under law. Any Who, I want the policy to be. You take a big stick or a flashlight and you crack those people on the back of the head, right behind the ear, and you say you don't do that again. And the next nu'mb nut who thinks they're gonna pour paint on the Mona Lisa or to face Stonehenge or whatever thinks I don't want to get hit with a stick really hard, so I'm not gonna do that. You gotta stop these people. This is crazy that society is putting up with this.
One might put it this way, employ disincentives that are negative enough people choose not to bring them.
On, as we've seen with the people disrupting traffic on the Golden gate Bridge, or the people to facing Stonehenger running out on a basketball court during a game or whatever. There's no penalty for this, so all you get is all your friends think you're really cool now, so yeah, you're gonna get more of it.
All right, you get arrested and then some progressive organization covers all of your costs. You get busted out, you're a hero to your friends. You take one of those all incentives, no disincentives, You get one.
Of those big heavy police flashlights right here lower behind the ear, like really hard, right, I think.
People do it less barbaric. Well, that is controversial. We'll take your calls.
That is just the world should not put up with something that managed to be okay for thousands of years, but now these dip asses are going to try to do something to it.
Well, and is there a man, woman, or child on the planet who sees that and says, you know what, they make a good point, I'm going to become a climate activist. Well, everybody thinks they're ales.
