Episode 440 Scott Adams: Weirdo, UBI, Omar, GND, Climate Change Confusion


Topics: 



Weird Tom Steyer’s new nickname, A+ sticky persuasion quality

The sticky, persuasive elements and why


4 Outlet Rule: If story is covered on 4 main networks, probably true

(Breitbart, FOX, CNN, MSNBC)
Q is real: None of the 4 report that Q is real…fake news
“Fine People” hoax: Not on all 4…fake news
Globalist plot to change politics: Not on all 4…fake news
Law allowing lefties to abort live, born babies…fake news


Abducted in Plain Sight – Recommended, but disturbing topic

The psychology, persuasion, confirmation bias
Clearly demonstrates the weakness of human perception


Leaving Neverland – Recommended, another disturbing topic

The details are disturbing and convincing
Then watch the counter-arguments on YouTube
Counter-arguments are ALSO persuasive


UBI – Universal Basic Income

Soon, a big part of population won’t be capable of working
Robots will take over jobs not requiring a lot of thinking
UBI is like abortion for lazy adults who don’t want to work


Half of published scientific papers end up being debunked

Climate change might be real AND 1/2 claims are garbage
Climate change might be a hoax, in spite of being sorta true
200 reasons against a theory is a tell that no good reasons exist


Guest: Mark Schneider, nuclear engineering expert

Operating reactors in America are all Gen II, meltdown danger
Europe has Gen III, better, much more resistant to meltdown


Gen IV nuclear power has 3 attractive options

molten salt, molten lead, gas cooled, NO MELTDOWNS
Loss of power to the facility, no problem, no danger
Containment systems make them safe from bombs
Gen II explosion danger is due to water for cooling
Gen IV doesn’t use water, eliminates explosion danger


5 to 10 years to bring Gen IV online

We need to develop the design portion of the concepts
NOT currently happening here…but Russia is progressing


Some Gen IV options, like molten lead, EAT nuclear waste
Gen IV, only 1/3 of heat generated is used for power creation

Other 2/3 can be used to desalinate ocean water

Episode 439 PART2 Scott Adams: Talking to Dr. Shiva About Climate Change


Topics PART2:



Multi-dimensional problems can’t be reduced to a single variable like CO2
People don’t understand math and physics, they’re being bamboozled

CO2 doubled already, temp should be up 4 degrees, per models
The models are NOT supported by the data
Actual temperature increase has only been half degree


Scientists are keeping quiet about climate change model problems

Climate change is BS, the data confirming BS is overwhelming
Grant money ONLY exists for those who believe and promote the climate change hoax

Episode 439 PART1 Scott Adams: Talking to Dr. Shiva About Climate Change


Topics PART1: 



The earth maintains equilibrium via multiple processes

Those processes NEUTRALIZE climate change


Richard Lindzen’s “Iris effect” has been confirmed true

Cloud shape changes with CO2 increase, neutralizes increase
Cloud and water vapor changes from CO2, NOT in the models


There is NO sharp rate increase in temperature over the last 50 years

2.5B years ago, the sun was putting out 30% LESS energy
With 30% less sun energy…earth temperatures barely colder
The earth maintained equilibrium via clouds and water vapor

Episode 438 Scott Adams: Persuasion Scorecard For Politics so Far This Year. Who is Winning?




Topics: 



Debate and persuasion are NOT the same thing

You can win a debate WITHOUT changing anyone’s mind


Fact-checking complaints, show you are stuck in “debate mindset”

Facts, ethics, morality and persuasion effectiveness


 Persuasion Scorecard – Rating various political persuasion plays
Jussie Smollett helped convince a lot of people that fake news exists
“Rights” are an invention of government to grant or deny permissions
If President Trump promotes Gen IV nuclear power solutions, he wins

Gen IV is the only available, practical solution for climate change


The Left considers climate change their signature issue, and yet…

…they aren’t aware that Gen IV is a safe, existing solution


Gen IV is what we should be doing, even if climate change isn’t real
What if Dems use Executive Orders once they return to power?

The EOs they might declare, and what might happen

The dried out dandelion versus the flame of energy, sizzle

Episode 435 Scott Adams: The “Nearly News” Headlines



Topics: 



Examples of currently circulating propaganda and fake news BS

Otto Warmbier, Jared Kushner, Anderson Cooper, AOC,
Michael Cohen, pending Mueller report, Sean Hannity,


“Hindcasting” is creating a model that fits past data

The model will easily apply to the first few future decades
Beyond that, not so much


Why hasn’t the media covered the enormous potential of Gen IV?

Gen IV nuclear power is safe and our only real option
We should pursue Gen IV whether or not climate change is real


DOE has approved and is currently testing Gen IV nuclear power

President Trump should take credit he deserves for this


Elon Musk agrees that we should pursue Gen IV

Everyone qualified to have an opinion, seems to agree on Gen IV
