| South Africa is run by a vicious bunch of thugs. | |
| And it made me think about something. | |
| Meeting all these truly decent acting people that I did. | |
| I have no idea how they voted. | |
| I wasn't going to ask them, who do you vote for? | |
| They're having elections in a few weeks, in fact. | |
| The ANC is another scummy left-wing radical organization that does nothing for its people and just destroys whatever it touches. | |
| And yet they get elected, but so do the Democrats of the United States. | |
| If you promise people enough things and convince them that the opposition is fascist, Then there are people who fall for this, especially the well-educated, and especially, in America's case, women. | |
| The male-female gap in elections is greater than it's ever been in American history, according to the latest polls. | |
| I'll have something to say about that. | |
| In the course of time, this notion that I developed as a result of Minnesota, Minnesota has a... | |
| A phrase called Minnesota nice. | |
| A lot of people in Minnesota are nice. | |
| That's meant with no sarcasm whatsoever. | |
| It is a sincere statement. | |
| A lot of people in Minnesota, a lot of people in the Midwest are nice. | |
| Certainly nicer than most people in New York City. | |
| And for that matter in many big cities, but not all. | |
| And I realized nice people can vote viciously. | |
| I don't know. | |
| Because there is no connection between nice and wise. | |
| You can be not nice and wise, and you can be nice and a fool. | |
| At least, fool on the macro matters. | |
| Not necessarily in personal matters. | |
| So I don't know anything about internal politics of South Africa. | |
| I do know that they do elect vile human beings to be their leaders. | |
| And they're not vile. | |
| Like in Minnesota. | |
| Like in California. | |
| California now has a bill that Would prohibit CLEAR from working at any California airport. | |
| If you pay a certain amount of money per year for CLEAR, because they have all your metrics and your eyes, contact, you get through very fast. | |
| You get through faster than any regular line and even faster than TSA PreCheck. | |
| Of course, I'm at the airport on average every week of the year. | |
| As soon as CLEAR started, I joined. | |
| But the Democrats in California have decided that it's unfair to people who don't have the money to spend on CLEAR. So there is a bill before the State Senate Assembly In California to ban clear. | |
| It's not fair that some people get ahead of the line. | |
| Of course, I don't understand why they will allow after that first class seats on airlines. | |
| The poor cannot buy a first class seat. | |
| It's a better seat. | |
| It's wider. | |
| It's got more legroom. | |
| Why should one be allowed to do that? | |
| The equality This notion of equality has produced more death, torture, murder, slaughter than any modern doctrine. | |
| More people have been slaughtered in the name of equality than in the name of any other goal. | |
| Any other ideal? | |
| It's a very dangerous idea that everybody should be equal. | |
| And I don't mean before God or in worth as a human being. | |
| I'm talking about equality of outcome. | |
| The American Revolution was about liberty, the French Revolution. | |
| It was about equality. | |
| The French Revolution led to the slaughter of human beings. | |
| The American Revolution led to more freedom for more people than any country in the history of the world. | |
| It did not end slavery, not immediately. | |
| It took another hundred years. | |
| but slavery was universal. | |
| Ironically the egalitarians produce slavery. | |
| That's why a citizen of Mao's China was a slave, a citizen of Stalin's Soviet Union was a slave, a citizen in North Korea was a slave, except for the upper echelons of the Communist Party. | |
| It is amazing how few young people are ever taught what a vile doctrine equality is. | |
| Not equality of opportunity or equality of worth, obviously. | |
| We're talking about equality, economic equality, status equality, also equality of outcome. | |
| I don't know how the ANC gets elected in South Africa, but the notion that nice people elect despicable human beings is not uncommon whatsoever, and it's a phenomenon in the United States. | |
| When nice people vote Democrat. | |
| Of course, they will say the exact same thing, except they wouldn't acknowledge that anybody who voted for Donald Trump could be nice. | |
| So they don't have the same dilemma, philosophically, as it were, that we do. |
