Chapter 1: What are the highlights of Coffee with Scott Adams?
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and I noticed my lighting's not quite right. There we go. Lighting corrected.
If you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go. Let me do a special shout-out to Paul Collider. You have no idea how much it helps me when you do your little image in the comments that shows that the video and audio are working. And I know you don't like to be thanked publicly, but it's the end of the year, and I want to tell you I appreciate it a lot. Well, let's look at the news.
Is it fun and interesting? Yes, it is. But first, I'd like to start a little controversy. It's a Christmas controversy, just for fun. All right. I have told you that there's no such thing as good movies anymore for reasons that I don't fully understand. All movies are ruined.
They're either woke or they're stupid or somebody's tied to a chair and tortured and I don't want to see it or somebody's family gets wiped out and I don't want to see it. There's blood. And nothing's funny anymore. So most of you would agree there's no such thing as good movies anymore. But... Yesterday I took a chance on a movie, a new one. It's called Red One.

Chapter 2: What is the review of the movie Red One?
I think it's only on Amazon Prime Video. It features The Rock and the actor Chris Evans and some other people. And I'm going to tell you my review of this movie. It's one of the best movies I've ever seen in my entire life. Now, People have different opinions of movies. And I will acknowledge that at least a third of you are saying, what?
I tried to watch that movie and I only got 10 minutes into it. I get it. I get it. We all like different stuff. But I'll tell you what I liked about it and I'm going to recommend it. Honestly, this is not an exaggeration. This is going to sound like an exaggeration. In my opinion, as just a person who watches movies, no expert or anything. It's a masterpiece. It's a masterpiece.
It's not just a good movie. It's a freaking masterpiece. The writing is just shockingly good. Now, when I say the writing is shockingly good, I don't just mean that the dialogue is zippy and funny and they've got good lines and it's a good buddy movie. After a while, it becomes kind of a buddy movie. And it works. But let me just give you an idea of the inventiveness. So it's about Santa Claus.
Red One is the code name for Santa Claus, and Santa Claus gets kidnapped. So The Rock and Chris Evans have to figure out how to get Santa Claus. Now, so far, you're saying to yourself, well, that sounds sort of ordinary routine Christmas movie, not too interesting. But wait till you find out that Santa Claus is thin and he's a gym rat.
Now, if you told me that there was going to be a movie where Santa Claus was played as a thin, very fit gym rat with superpowers, I would have said, How are they going to make that? How are they going to sell that? How are you going to convince me that Santa has always been thin and fit? And they pull it off.
And the pure inventiveness of how they turned ordinary Christmas stuff into something special, it's like watching Harry Potter or Star Wars for the first time. It gave me that feeling. Now, it also, I would say it's probably PG. I don't believe a single person got killed or seriously injured. You know, there were a lot of monsters that get beat up and stuff.
But I don't think anybody died in the entire movie. And I don't think there were any scenes I didn't want to watch. So... I would just say congratulations to everybody involved. The visuals of this are the best I've ever seen. The visuals, the visual effects are the best I've ever seen. Now you're going to say, that's not true. You know, here are five movies with better.
No, no, because they take their time with the visuals. Usually the visuals just slap by or, you know, it's just a opening scene, but here that it's just so good. Anyway, that's my review. Now remember a third of you aren't going to like it at all, which I totally get. The critics didn't like it, but the public was 90% yes on it. It's really good. Um,
I asked this question on X Yesterday, did a little poll. I said, how many of you feel unusually exhausted and exhausted beyond the point where you think it's just Christmas stress? because everybody gets more stressed and tired in Christmas. But how many of you feel there's something different happening, that you're having a kind of exhaustion that you can't explain?

Chapter 3: Why are people experiencing unusual exhaustion?
talking about some kind of electromagnetic pollution, basically, and the idea that humans are electrical creatures. And if you put enough Wi-Fi and electrical signals in the air, you're essentially polluting the thing that has something to do with your ability to thrive, I guess. Now, I'm not convinced that that's really the problem.
Although it interestingly would answer a lot of questions about why is this so, you know, what's happening recently that's wrong? Maybe. So I'm not going to rule it out. But I don't personally, I haven't seen the evidence for it. But I feel like something's happening. And I know this will cause the NPCs to say, oh, you got the vaccination.
But I don't think it's that because it wasn't really connected to anything that happened after the vaccination. Some of you are going to say it's the food, but my food's been better than ever. I don't know what it is. Sort of a mystery. But if it were only me, then it wouldn't be that much of a story because, you know, it's just one person's health issue. But 68%.
say they're suffering unusual exhaustion. I feel like you need to look into that a little bit. Yeah, anyway. According to Slay News, there was a major study on universal basic income, meaning that they gave people free money to cover some of their basics, but probably not all of them. And then they checked to see if those people thrived. Did they use that extra time to, let's say, build a skill?
Did they use the extra time to become more productive people? Maybe become engineers or poets? You know, really add something back to society? Because it would free up some time. No, it turns out that what happened was the people who got extra money used it to work less. So all they did is replace their productive efforts with unproductive efforts.
So the conclusion is that universal basic income would destroy the world. They could have just asked me. They could have just asked me. Now, let me explain this. If you did a study where you put together Elon Musk and me and and some entrepreneurial people, and you said, we're going to give you $1,000 a month. Come back later and see what happens.
Well, probably wouldn't make any difference to any of us. But I'm pretty sure we would all spend the next year doing productive things because it's just what we do. We just do productive things. It's sort of built into our DNA, some people. But if you took the people who needed a universal basic income,
and that's the group that you studied, the ones who needed it, you're not really going to get people turning into engineers and poets. This is the group of people who, for whatever reason, were not killing it before. Giving them free money is just going to make them lazier. That was very predictable. I'm glad they studied it, actually, just so we know. But
it was very predictable that giving people free money and removing their incentive to work would have a predictable effect on the people who weren't killing it in life already. So Elon Musk says, I think I have this right, that in the age of AI and robots that's coming, money might become useless because there's no point in exchanging money when everybody can have everything they want for free.

Chapter 4: What are the findings of the Universal Basic Income study?
because the robots do the cooking and the working and the making and stuff like that. So I worry that we are not evolved to handle that. If we evolved, and I assume that's the standard view, here's the hard, cold truth. I think human beings were meant to have a third of the people thriving,
a third of the people kind of barely hanging on, and a third of the people failing and dying and not reproducing.
And if the people who are failing and dying and not reproducing are taken out of the gene pool and the people who are happier and thriving are the ones having the kids, probably you have a species that can move forward because the natural effect of evolution is getting rid of the laggards and promoting the people who are killing it in life.
But what happens if you start promoting the laggards instead of promoting the people who are killing it life? Well, in the short term, it keeps a lot of people alive. In the long term, does it make everybody lazy and unproductive? And do we lose our purpose? Because I think we're kind of evolved to strive or die. Right? I think humans, we either strive or die.
And you see people choosing both paths. Some strive. Some die. But what if nobody died? At least they didn't die because of being lazy. I don't know. I don't think we could possibly predict what that will do to humanity. But none of it looks good. Because the only thing that makes humans do the right thing is incentive. What happens if you take it away? Just don't know what's going to happen.
Anyway, they could have just asked me about that one. Physicists are starting to say, more and more of them, that humanity is getting ready for what they call a radical re-understanding of reality, something as big as the Einstein and quantum physics kind of revolutions separately and combined. So according to Quantum Magazine, space-time isn't base reality.
That's what some of the physicists are saying. So if you think that the understanding of space-time and gravity and all those things are base reality, the physicists are saying, no, those might be emergent phenomenons, meaning there's something below them that's causing them, which of course is true. And Just look at the things we don't understand about reality.
And you can see how obvious it is that we're due for a major re-understanding of reality. We don't know what dark matter is exactly. I'm not sure it exists. Electrons have no mass, which makes no sense to me. We don't know what happened before the Big Bang. I'm not sure what's up with black holes. I feel like, in string theory, it looks absurd to me. So I feel like we really are ready.
Well, fuck you. So that's, by the way, in case you didn't think I read the comments, I do read the comments. So I have a right to respond to you as a personal response because you're not just talking to the other people. So let me just say this to you. Fuck you. I'm talking to one of you. You know who it is. The rest of you can sit this out. Yeah.

Chapter 5: How are physicists redefining our understanding of reality?
And I can tell you that there was a belief that remote viewing was real. I can confirm that. There was a belief, maybe not by everybody, but by some people involved, that there was at least one viewer who was legit. Some of them didn't test out. But there was one that kept getting hits and they couldn't explain why it was so accurate.
That's the one that I believe that's the one that saw the stuff on Mars. Now, I should also tell you that when I was learning about it, none of it was convincing to me. So when I heard the stories about the remote viewer getting stuff right and how spooky it was that he got some stuff right, it didn't sound right to me. So a lot of it's subjective.
So if you heard the story of what was true, that the remote viewer couldn't possibly have known, and then they tested them to see if the remote viewer could guess something right, they got miraculously accurate-looking results. But so does a fake psychic. If somebody does a cold read, it looks like they're getting phenomenally accurate guesses, but they're not.
They're just doing pattern recognition. So my suspicion is that there was one remote viewer who was just really good at pattern recognition. And if somebody came to them and said, we want you to view a spot in Russia during the Cold War. What would somebody with good pattern recognition think they were looking for? A weapon, right? Or some kind of military asset.
So you could kind of guess what they wanted you to find. And then you'd say, I see a large object. It's a military asset. And I think in one case, it was a submarine or something. And then the expert said, my God, it's true. There's a submarine there. So that was like a famous hit.
You know, somebody who guessed a submarine in a location that they shouldn't have known there was a submarine, except it was Russia. It was during the time, you know. Basically, it wasn't that hard to guess. that it was something like a weapon and there was some water involved and submarine was a good guess. So I'm not convinced that remote viewing is legitimate.
In fact, I would go further and say I would place the hugest bet in the world that's not real. A million dollars? Easily. Yeah, I would bet a million dollars, literally, that there's no such thing as remote viewing. But I can tell you that there were believers. There were believers. I just don't think it's true. Yesterday, an interesting thing happened.
I used Grok because I wanted to have it create an image for a post I was doing where it would be a bunch of scientists looking confused. But when I asked it for a picture of a bunch of scientists, no matter whether they were confused or not, it gave me a group that was so diverse that only one of the people in the large group was a white guy. Now,
Probably the number of white guys in science is close to like half or 60%. But you could do it consistently, and every picture was just filled with people of color and women as scientists. So... So I posted that, and I just put a comment, presented without a comment, because I think everybody could see what was going on. And sure enough, they did.

Chapter 6: What did remote viewing reveal about Mars?
Now compare that to earning 77 cents on a dollar, which is not true, just like the dream was not true, but they're mad at you in the real world for it. That sounds the same. How about climate change or climate alarm? Climate alarm, many people on the right feel that's not real, but people are mad at me for it, just like as if they had a dream that wasn't real.
What about all the massive discrimination in hiring? Like if, let's say, a black man or woman goes to get a job at a Fortune 500 company, they will tell you that they're discriminated against and they'd be lucky if they could get that job. That is literally the opposite of reality. But still somebody's mad at me for the thing that's opposite of what they think is true.
So if you look at the Democratic platform, you just go right down the line. It's all things that are not reality that somebody's mad at me for. Now, in some cases, it's a difference in opinion of what's real. Take, for example, abortion. Abortion is not a difference in values.
It's a difference of whether you think the reality is that the fetus is alive and that God exists and God wants it to be alive. So that's a case of a difference in reality. So I think that the difference between Democrats and Republicans, we usually think is a difference in values, right?
When people on TV talk about it, they'll say, well, our values are this, and they're different from your democratic values. And I would argue none of that's true. People have the same values everywhere in the United States. People have the same values. What they differ on is reality. What we think is different is the reality that's guiding us.
If we had the same reality assumptions, it would look like we had the same values, right? So if you thought that one group was being discriminated against, you would have a certain set of solutions. And if I thought they were not being discriminated against, I would have a different set of solutions.
But in the real world, we say, oh, your values are different because you don't care about this group. No, I care about them plenty. I just don't want something done that isn't based on reality. So look for that model. Look for how often the Democrats are basing their entire policy of any topic on the dream they had about something bad you did last night.
Meanwhile, DEI, I've told you, DEI kills everything it touched. And there's new research from the progressive polling outfit called Navigator Research. And it says the reputation of the Democrat Party is in tatters. And they did too much with the wokeness and the DEI and too much attention to the elites. Positive attention, I guess. And OK.
And then separately, the Democratic Party brand is in the toilet, according to, I guess, New York Times did a did a written interview with some Democrats, and they say they said that the Democrats who performed the best were the ones who ran against their own party. And one of the experts said Smith said, when the best way to win as a candidate is to run against your own party, It's that bad.

Chapter 7: How does diversity influence AI-generated content?
It includes photographs of Joe Biden meeting with Hunter Biden's Chinese business associates and introducing Hunter to China's President Xi while he was vice president. It was everything you thought it was. The Biden crime family was exactly what you thought it was. But our media prevented you from seeing that until AFL sued the federal records just to see the photographs.
These photographs always existed. And so during that entire time, we were arguing whether whether Hunter Biden had met people through his father and was part of this crime organization. They had pictures of it, photos of the vice president meeting with Hunter's business partners. Yeah, everything you thought was true, it was true.
Meanwhile, Trump's transition team, they say that Trump is planning to put together some maybe special forces. and assassinate the cartel bosses in Mexico once he's in office. Now, that's the first time I've heard it specifically that he was going to assassinate the cartel leaders. But to me, that sounds a little bit more like negotiating, because it can work both ways.
I don't think that killing the leaders stops fentanyl, because I'm pretty sure somebody takes over And the other cartel just makes twice as much. So I don't think it's going to stop the supply. But what it could do is make the leaders of the cartel say, at the moment, I have a really cushy deal on the head of a cartel.
But I just noticed that the other three heads of the other three cartels just got murdered. Maybe I should concentrate less on fentanyl and a little bit more on something less deadly. So I could see how it could be positive, but it won't be positive in the sense if you kill the cartel leaders, the fentanyl business stops. That doesn't seem likely.
But you can certainly get them to say, we'll work with you. I feel like the only way to win with the cartels is to help them transform into legitimate businesses. I think that's the only way.
But that's pretty odious because it means taking somebody who murdered lots of Americans through drugs and just murdered people in general and giving them some billionaire lifestyle and ownership of real companies and stuff. So it's not ideal, but it's messy business. So what else are you going to do? If killing them doesn't work, what else are you going to do? you're going to have to make a deal.
So only, only Trump could make a deal with cartel people. And the only way you can make a deal is to kill a few of them first or to make them think that they are going to get killed pretty soon. All right. Um, anyway, that's boring. There's a, uh, New technology at the University of Liverpool that is going to turn sunlight directly into hydrogen without having to plug it in.
So you can capture the sun, and they've got some new kind of technology with a hybrid nanoreactor. They figured out some kind of synthetic material that can take sunlight and turn it directly into hydrogen. Now imagine if that gets more efficient. It's basically free hydrogen from sunlight. I don't know if that's better or worse than just electricity from sunlight, but it's kind of exciting.

Chapter 8: What is the current state of the Democratic Party's brand?
Instead of offering to make it an extra state, which screws up with all our demographics and everything, not demographics, would mess with our whole political system. Instead of saying that, suppose we said, here's the deal. We'll take over management, but you can maintain your Greenland identity, your Denmark passport, probably. I assume they have rights to go to Denmark, I'm guessing.
But you would also be American citizens at the same time. So you could be dual or triple citizens. We just want to take over management. So you never have to do anything with America if you don't want to. But if you wanted to, you get the option. I would imagine if you lived in Greenland, you would love to have some benefits of American citizenship. Maybe not full benefits.
Maybe it doesn't even include voting. I don't know. I'd love to see him pitch it, just see what happens. Denmark, of course, would not allow that, but might be able to talk him into it. So Trump and his team are suing Polster and Seltzer.
Because the allegation is that she intentionally ran a fake poll toward the end of the election that made it look like Harris was a better candidate and more viable than she was. So that looked like election interference because the numbers were so far out of line. I think I like this. I don't like the idea of suing pollsters for being wrong.
But if you can sue this one pollster for being way wrong in a way that Nobody really thinks she didn't know. He might not be able to prove it, might not be able to prove it, but I think it's a good shot across the bow. Next time there's a pollster that wants to cripple some Republican candidate, you want them to say, if we don't fix these numbers to make them a little more true...
those Republicans like to sue pollsters for rigging elections. And even though they didn't win the lawsuit, I don't think they'll win, but even though they didn't win the lawsuit against that one pollster they sued, we don't want to be spending our time in court. So maybe we shouldn't push these numbers as aggressively as we have.
So I think it's a good idea to just send a warning shot and say, we will sue a pollster that's being completely unethical. It's just going to be hard to win, and it's going to be hard to prove that it's unethical as opposed to a mistake.
Well, according to the Axios, 61% of Democrats, they're going to spend less time with their own family and friends because they're stressed out, I think, because of politics. but only 39% of Republicans said the same. Does that surprise you, that Democrats are reluctant to spend time with their own family? Here's why I think that.
I think that Republicans walk into every room thinking that reality is on their side and common sense. So, of course, they'd be happy to visit. and they listen to you say crazy things, and they might say, yeah, okay, sounds crazy.
