Context —
t raise a little flag for you? Is it a coincidence that CNN is telling us that we should focus on Russia as the problem and not China? That doesn't feel like an independent opinion to me. Now I can't read anybody's mind and I'm not going to allege anything. I'm just saying that when I read it, it doesn't look like somebody independently said, let me think about this with no influence from my corpo…
← Previous segment →everybody who died because of the shutdowns, everybody who died because of the COVID itself, everybody who died because the vaccination was, you know, unfortunately they were one of the ones who had a bad effect. You'd have to add all of that together. And so I have a feeling that the COVID death is about double what is reported so far, and that we might lose another million people sooner than they had to go. You know, you could argue that all the changes, it was a little sooner, but that's true for all of us.
All right. Is there anything else happening? Well, Jack Posobiec tweeted that 60, 65% of Democrats — I feel like everything's 65 today, that's weird — 65% of Democrats approve of Trudeau's down on freedom protesters and freezing of bank accounts. So that's obviously Democrats meaning Americans. So I wasn't really completely aware of this until at least halfway through the convoy situation. I didn't realize that so many Democrats were completely in favor of the government's actions there.
Now I guess I would have thought that if I'd seen how many people wear masks in California after it's not required. It is really, really amazing to see how many people are wearing masks without it being required. Now I'm not going to name names, but I actually witnessed yesterday somebody put on a mask. Somebody I know put on the mask in a public place, and I said, oh masks are not required. And said individual who shall remain nameless said, I know, I prefer it. Not for health reasons, not for health reasons. Felt more comfortable. That's a real thing. That is a real thing.
Now you know people have different reasons, but everything from people think the — and by the way there's a name for, have you ever heard of the name mask fishing? I heard this recently. Have you heard of mask fishing? So catfishing is when you pretend you're a different person than the picture. Mask fishing is when you're attractive but only in this little zone here and the rest of it is just a hot mess. So apparently there are a number of people who are pretty happy wearing masks. It improves their overall attractiveness. And that's not a joke. It's not a joke that it improved to some people's overall attractiveness and they wanted to keep it.
And other people I think were shy. And I have to admit that I felt that too. When I walked into a store without a mask after having been so acclimated to wearing masks, I actually felt a little naked and exposed. Has anybody had that yet? Now it wasn't enough to make me put a mask on, but I felt a little naked and a little bit exposed. I didn't have any feelings about virus. It was just a social feeling. And I can absolutely, you know, and I'm not embarrassed by pretty much anything, so it wasn't really embarrassment or anything like that.
Anyway, that is everything I think I wanted to say today. And you have been witness to the best livestream that's ever happened in the history of the world with some of the most fun people, obviously the sexiest, smartest, most flexible and open-minded human beings of all time. Give yourself a pat on the back. Okay, that's enough. That's enough. Cut it out. All right. And tomorrow we'll do it again every single day.
