individual. But I do know that in the context of DEI they've created a situation where it's my first assumption, my working assumption.

Now do you think that's good for black people that when I see a black leader who's not getting it done that I think it's because of DEI not because necessarily there's something wrong with the person? That's a whole different conversation. The person might actually be qualified and it would be terribly unfair to a qualified black leader to be painted with the same brush just because it's in the context of DEI. I don't see how black people come out ahead with DEI. To me it looks like a complete losing proposition. And I think what's wrong about it is what Democrats get wrong every time. They don't take into account the room. You got to read the room right? Read the room. That's what Trump did correctly on abortion I think. Even if you don't like where he landed he read the room right. He read the room right just exactly right. There's no right answer but he found the safest place to be on it for a president. That's reading the room right. Then and DEI is reading the room so wrong. And it's almost like ignoring that it matters what other people think of DEI. No it's actually the most important thing. The most important thing is how white people think about it but we're going to be really quiet in the short run. In the long run we're going to form opinions that it's promoting unqualified people. There's nothing you could do about that. We're not broken. There's nothing to fix. You designed a system that guarantees that people are going to assume DEI hires are less qualified and the math suggests that it will often be true but not always of course. So how's that a good situation for being black in America? To me this would be just the worst freaking thing. If you're capable you can be operating under this umbrella of assumption of incapability and I can't imagine anything that would be more destructive to your entire ability to enjoy your life.

Anyway get out of LA. LA is fallen.

There's a campaign video I guess you call it that that is the strongest one I think maybe I've ever seen. Now think about what a biggest statement that is. It's a campaign ad just a two-minute ad might be the strongest one I've ever seen for any side at any time anywhere. It was made by Western Lensman and Blake Haban. So I've posted it if you want to go see it. I'm not going to give it to you but I'll just tell you how it felt. It promises at the beginning to tell you 25 ways that Biden is destroying America or the Democrats I guess. And it's going to do it in two minutes. Now when I heard that I'm like really 25 ways? You're going to give me 25 ways in 2 minutes and I'm supposed to think that these are all credible? So here's what I assumed. The first five probably are going to be pretty good like things I might agree with like oh open border yeah that is destroying the country. And then I thought by the time you get to 25 you're going to be into the weak stuff right? Just makes sense right? You're going to put the strong stuff up front and then I'm going to say oh yeah yeah yeah and then once you got me nodding along by the time you get to eight or nine then the list the 25 you've just hypnotized me like yeah yeah yeah oh that's right oh yeah yeah and then you get to the 25 and they might be weak but you're all on board at that point.

Didn't go like that. All 25 are strong. And when you see them together it's like your hair catches on fire. Because when you see them together it does look like the Democrats are legitimately trying to destroy the country. And you don't see it if you see any one of the 25 things individually because they all have a reason. Well we're working on this and there's a reason for that and well you didn't look at the tradeoff and well it's not a perfect world and you know everything's got its own little excuse. But boy when you see all 25 of them together it looks like Democrats are literally intentionally trying to destroy the country. And I think there's something to that because when you hate something you will even subconsciously do everything you can to destroy it right? It doesn't even mean it's a plan. I wouldn't claim it's a plan. I don
