This video presents a philosophical framework for understanding 'sins' as behaviors that hinder human flourishing and societal progress. The hosts argue that sins are fundamentally harmful actions that impede personal growth and collective well-being, distinguishing them from merely unpleasant activities. Key sins discussed include acting purely on social expectation, living to maximize image or archetype fitting, engaging in busy work instead of meaningful activities, indulging in negative emotions, practicing moral absolutism without considering consequences, delaying action until perfect conditions are met, self-flagellation over unchangeable past events, empty words that drain others' energy, unnecessary status signaling, hedonistic mercy that ignores negative externalities, entitlement, and indulgent nostalgia. The framework emphasizes that emotions are largely choices, that initiative and learning new skills are crucial in the modern era, and that moral rules should be evaluated based on their long-term consequences for human flourishing rather than rigid adherence to tradition.

Deep Dive
The Most UNFORGIVABLE Sins (feat. Leaflit & Malcolm)Hinzugefügt:
Yeah. Okay. This is going to be fun.
>> We're going to come up with some good new sins. We need new sins here. Okay.
>> So, sin number one here, and these aren't in order of how how big they are, right? We sort of already went over >> criteria like what's the over all criteria? Uh the overall criteria is I'm looking for things that are general rules to live my life by and that I can give to other people to live their lives by that will help them live better lives similar to the ways that the older sinless helped with this goal.
>> Um got it. Uh so I sort of look for the things that in my heart have drawn me to actions that I do or or behavior that I do not think helped society from a moral perspective.
>> Okay. Um so uh doing things because of social expectation, acting purely because it's what's expected uh eg attending graduations, high school reunion ceremonies when it doesn't serve your objective function or human flourishing.
It's a waste of time and energy. Next, um the sort of owning others, showing off uh demonstrating your superiority to others or owning people who look down on you when it is not used to motivate positive behavior. like me going to my high school reunion just to show off to the people. These are the ones we already went over. Uh next, uh living to maximize your image or archetype fitting. Um eg >> living to maximize your image >> or archetype.
>> What I mean by this is some people say uh I use the Hanza thing here when he was making a major life decision and he asked what was the most masculine decision and he ended up going with that decision. But this is a particularly big problem in Christian communities with stuff like Tradives or like living to be the most perfect look of what you imagine a Christian is like.
>> I see this a lot because um I I took a test like the other day called the Chud test. You should take the Chud test.
It's kind of you [laughter] should do you taking that ch test. I might have even been on that stream but continue.
>> Yeah. So I took the chud test, right?
And like one of the questions was like how much housework are you willing to do? And I'm like wait it depends right like it depends on like you know obviously like if it were optimal for me to do all the housework then I would do all the housework right and it's kind of like well that's not trad. It's like I don't give a [ __ ] if it's tr or not. You know what I mean? Like it's not I'm not I'm not owned by the idea of being trad.
But I think people don't understand how uh negative this can get, right? Um >> I mean a great example of somebody who I think is doing this is somebody like Nick Fuentes. Nick Fuentes is living the image of the perfect racist/ Catholic, right? Um [laughter] yet he doesn't have kids. So functionally he's contributing the exact antithesis to society, right?
Um he's making and he's helping his party lose, right? So, he's literally doing the exact opposite of what somebody who was his but it doesn't matter to him because imagewise he's maxing this where you get this the absolute worst is with tradives. If you live your life to be a trad wife, um, you can get into a set of roles or positions where you're like, well, I'm I'm I'm doing all the the trad wife stuff, so my husband should be naturally doing all the trad husband stuff, right? The problem with the trad husband stuff is you can do everything right and still fail to bring in the amount of money that she wants you to be bringing in for her, right? And then that builds resentment, right? Um you can be doing every the tried wife stuff is easy. It's just like a series of set tasks. You do it and it's done, right?
>> I totally agree.
>> And so marrying somebody who wants to be the perfect trad and and then keep in mind all you are is part of that role for her, right? Like you are supporting her in living a role. She's not doing it because the desire is to support you.
>> Yeah. There's like there's like no goal beyond the image, right? Like you you have to um like the the goal has to always like like it's kind of like living your life by rules that handicap you, right? And it's it's if you're if you're if you're a wife and you're doing these things, but then you're really good at a specific skill, but you're like, I can't do that cuz I'm a tad wife and you just don't do it, it just seems like such a waste, right? like you're you're basically [ __ ] everyone over in your family specifically for your image issues or whatever.
>> Yeah. So, you see what I mean? I think that's a good sin to don't >> don't live for self and Jesus would have had a hard time ex probably somebody's going to show me actually he did say that here or here or here and I'm going to or it's like an expansion of pride is a good way to think of it but I I I think it's useful to delineate further.
>> Yeah. Yeah. I like that one. That's a great one.
Next one here is busy work doing pointless lowv valueue tasks uh especially alongside performative suffering or exhaustion um instead of uh meaningful honest work or rest/indulgence.
Uh we consider this worse than pure indulgence. I agree. So like busy work is a worse than sitting down and watching anime or playing a video game or masturbating even, right? Because at least >> Yeah. Go ahead.
>> You're blowing off stress, right? Like you're >> That's what I was going to say is that there there there is there is value there is hidden value in those other things that you're doing. Whereas the busy work is just pure like you're just trying to pretend like you're doing something and it's inefficient. It's it's you're chasing inefficiency for like the idea that you're doing something when you could be refueling things like like for instance like you said de-stressing you know lowering cortisol by you know fapping and then in other cases like anime increasing your creative load I mean creative tank basically >> which you need to like solve problems.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Well, I sorry. I should be clear when I say things like um so if you understand how I relate to sin in Romans, we see anything that you do not do for God is sin because I believe that God is like about progressing humanity and increasing human flourishing.
Anything that doesn't do that in my eyes is sinful. So I see uh you know I like anime. I think anime is a net good for society. I still think anything if I just sit down and watch anime I am sinning right but like we all have sin right you know. So when I talk about something like that, but I think it's a worse sin to engage in a form of something that is sinful but has no positive externality to society. Right.
>> Well, I I I think hold on. I I I think in some cases it would be optimal actually to watch anime.
>> You're right. in some cases, but I I want to be hard on myself so I don't go because I think find, you know, arguments >> of why I should be gooning all day, right? You know, but [laughter] um >> well, I mean, it depends on how high your stress levels are, right? Because it's ineffective for you to have such high cortisol that like, you know, it's it depends, right, on the situation.
>> So, he says is bureaucracy the devil.
So, keep in mind there are two types of busy work. Busy work that you inflict on yourself is by far the worst, right?
Like busy work if inflicted on you by an external source isn't sinful in the same way because it's still necessary to be a part of society and move yourself upwards. Busy work you inflict on yourself is something quite and this is Simone's largest sin category, right?
Like she knows that we talked about it on air. She has a major problem with busy work. um where I'm like, you don't actually need to change the kids sheets every week, right? Like, they're not going to get sick if you leave it on for like two or 3 weeks, right?
>> I remember hearing this argument. Was this at the end of an episode?
[laughter] >> We we we HAVE THIS ARGUMENT A LOT.
>> Um for example, uh my room, by the way, I change my sheets uh literally probably once every six months, right? Like it's just not needed. I do it only. So Simone is like, "Malcolm, your room's getting smelly." Like you [laughter] have um Oh, hold on. You want to see how good I am at not falling to this in? Um let's let's look around my room right now. All right. Cuz I've got the camera right here. [laughter] Um Okay.
>> This is you. We got [laughter] >> this is how I live >> and you >> got some asmin gold action over here.
[laughter] >> If you watch our show, you have seen how clean our house is right outside of my bedroom. Um, our house ising sparkling.
[laughter] Um, but my room that's your cave though.
>> My rule. [laughter] I like the helmet back there. Helmet's sick.
>> Somebody's like, "Bro, you live like this." Uh, no I don't. When I leave my room, my house is perfectly clean because I've got a neurotic wife. Um, [laughter] who keeps everything clean?
But what she does, >> it's soed up when women are like, "Men don't even clean." And it's like, men can live without cleaning. [laughter] It's women who want the house to be clean so they shoulding clean it because when I she leaves I just let the house deteriorate until she gets back and then I do all the cleaning right before she gets back so she's happy. And she's like why do you do that? And I go are the kids going to get sick? And she's like no. And then I'm like so it doesn'ting matter.
>> So it would only matter if you had like you know [ __ ] rats and plague in your house then there would probably be an issue right?
No, I mean there there's cases where like it for some people they really need like a clean world to sink cleanly, right? Like they they um and this works like getting dressed up at the beginning of the day even no one sees you can make you more efficient, right?
>> Um cleaning up your workspace for some people can make you more efficient.
>> I'm not one of those people. I wake up at 2 a.m. roll over, my computer sits in my bed, and I start working, right? You know, I was like, >> "My room is also messy." My my my room kind of looks like your room. I'm I'm not gonna lie.
>> Yeah.
>> You're also very Simony. We were We were talking about this before um and I asked if I could share this with you guys. It turns out that she and Simone buy their outfits from the same place. And [laughter] for those of you who are friends of my show, that she's basically dressing like a co a medieval cosplayer 24/7. [laughter] Um, and I was like, Lyn, that is so based.
>> It's actually so funny cuz we were talking about it like, oh, like, yeah, they have the best of like this thing.
And I was like, oh, I totally just bought that the other day. Yeah, it was great. Did you see the new ones?
[laughter] Like us talking just like that. I got the belt from there. What do you think about like those? Uh, this was a real This was a real part of the conversation, by the way. Did you get the potion bottle holders? [laughter] Cody goes, "The Leaf is basically a combination of Malcolm and Simone." And I'm [laughter] like, "Yeah, that's right. She's our child. She our anime child." [laughter] >> But but she said that she couldn't because then the because then the kids would break them.
>> The potion bottles. [laughter] >> The potion holders. Oh my god, that is that is great. I love it. That [laughter] is potion holders. Oh, you got to you use it for some kitchen thing and they don't break off. And I was like I was like showing her some like really cool like apoc.
>> I was it was it conven was the vending machine your idea? She's gotten super into this.
>> That was my idea.
>> Okay. So, Leaf had this freaking crazy awesome idea to get a vending machine for the kids and like put snacks inside of it and put like we're going to put like some cheap toys inside of it and the kids get like coins for doing good things and we're going to try to get like a um a um legacy vending m whatever you call that vintage vending machine from like eBay or something. just set it up in the house so the kids uh like whenever they feel like it, they feel like they're earning stuff, but like all of the treats are behind vending machine gating.
>> Yeah. You you're not allowed to have any sugar or soda or anything like that. You have to get it from like a vending machine. [laughter] >> This is why somebody needs to put a baby in you. You're going to be a great mom.
[laughter] You got to get out of there.
But >> I had like this whole idea for like an economy. So it was going to be like this. Like basically you get nothing for free. you only get the essentials for free. So like like you know your your base everything you get like one outfit and that's it. But then there is like the there is like the the the leaf coin where you get a leaf coin and I'm going to like specially mint tokens that only work in those vending machines to buy specialized coins.
>> Yeah, that's what I that's what I was telling Simone. You get like customized coins and see what I was going to do is I was going to cuz I I actually have arcade machines. So, I'm going to set up an arcade and like none of them are free. You have to use the coins to play them and I'm going to put toys in the UFO catcher and then you have to get your toys from the UFO catcher or buy things from the store. So, we're going to have a store like, "Oh, you want to have a hobby? Okay, well, you better [ __ ] buy it with your with your with your coins." And if you ask the quartermaster, which is me, uh I'll I'll stock it with a thing that you want and I'll tell you like, "Yeah, I can order that for you, but it's going to cost this amount of coins." But see, here's the thing now is now the kids can uh say, "Well, I have to do a chore, but I'm busy that day." And you can pay your siblings using Leaf coins to like do the chore for you.
>> I like this.
>> Right. So, it's like there's a whole little like economy here going on.
>> This is This is incredibly fun. I love this idea. We're implementing it. We're stealing it from you. [laughter] Did you >> The idea of putting the the um the rigged uh the rigged slot machine Oh no, wait. What's the slot machine idea? I don't really get that.
>> You get like one of those Japanese slot machines, like those like those anime ones, but you you make it so the odds are like really [ __ ] terrible. So that it like teaches them that gambling's bad.
>> Oh, that's a great idea >> because they use they use the coins, right? So it's like you don't really lose as much, but then like >> you feel your your your money just getting [ __ ] over.
>> That is great.
>> Yeah, [laughter] I like this. I like this. Okay. Um, so, okay, next ne next sin here. All right. Um, not acting was a plum or emotional indulgence, willfully adopting negative emotional states, snarkiness, exasperation, performative suffering, self-pity, bragging about being overworked, sleepdeprived for no productive reasons. Emotions are largely choice, especially important during hard times. Act like a happy soldier.
Self-pity harms your family and productivity.
>> I totally agree with that one. It's hard though. That's a hard one to do, but I agree with it.
>> Yeah. I I a lot of like ex Mormons complain that like in Mormonism you're supposed to always be happy. And I'm like >> but you should always be happy. Like even if Simone died, right? Like even in a worstc case scenario for me, if I cry, if I show sadness, the person who that hurts the most are my kids.
>> Yes. and they are going through a significantly harder time than I'm going through in that moment, right? Like when my mom died recently, this is a couple years ago while we were doing our streams, by the way. Um, and I Simone, it was like that day, my core concern was that Simone didn't become overly sad.
>> Um, because I could see that it was really emotionally affecting her. Um, and it's like my mom, but like I see a person who I care about becoming uh stressed and I'm like I don't want to I don't want to like it it is up to me to control my emotional state. Yeah.
>> And this has huge positive outcomes long term because when you indulge in emotional states and this has been shown in studies. When you punch a wall when you're mad, >> you you struggle to control your anger more and you get mad more often. If you allow yourself to cry when you're sad, you'll struggle to control your tears more. uh because these strengthen your inhibitory pathway in your prefrontal cortex which makes all of the control easier. Um and so yeah, I do think that we have a a duty to be uh uh >> at least wait for the right time, right?
Like you got to wait for the right time.
You you don't really want to infect other people with it, right?
>> Yeah. Like I I I I think well I mean it's people say like grief is important, but I don't know. I don't think grief helps you in your life at all. Um, I think indulging it, it's something that's already happened and you >> and you can't do anything about anymore.
Um, I don't understand the benefit of focusing on it, right? Like, how does it help you?
>> I see what you mean.
>> Your family, how does it help you build yourself? How does it help you? Um, uh, like grief may be useful if it's because your dad dies and then you're thinking like, I didn't talk with him enough. Now I feel bad. So, I should use that bad feeling to motivate going and talking to my mom more while she's still alive.
>> Yeah, I see. I see what you mean. It's the meaning of those meaningless uh like wasting of time basically.
>> Yeah. Like I always talk to my mom when she like for for like Leaf literally like engages with her mom all the time.
I doubt you'd be like I I wasn't there for her when she needed me. There's nothing to feel bad about. You were there as much as you would be.
>> Yeah. Um, uh, use grief as fuel. I don't know if grief really fuels action. I've never seen a person like work really hard or crank out a really good product because they were in grief.
>> It fuels it fuels like a like what's the word? Um, indulgence basically.
>> Yeah, it fuels rumination and indulgence, which is another sin that we'll get to, right? Um, okay. So, so next sin here, um, moral absolutism, taking moral rules to extremes without considering the long-term consequences. Um, unlimited immigration because we have to help the poor, foreigner, for an example, absolute pacifism in positions of power, performative anti-racism, anti-semitism.
Um, it pushes the cost onto others while feeling morally superior. Uh and and this is something that uh you know we do even on the right where we talk about and you've you you've talked about this.
We're like well uh oh yeah the left does this with immigration but do we do this with pornography if banning pornography raises the rates of child assault? And then you're like yeah but it has other positive effects on society. I saw your whole stream on this and you were going over both sides and it was really nuanced and good and I like >> I think that's why your audience is nuanced and good. [laughter] Um, but I think thinking through, you know, uh, sometimes, especially in like conservative Christian circles and stuff like this, we can get in this position where we want to be the most conservative, the most Christian, whatever. And we can purity spiral ourselves. Yeah. People call it purity spiraling. But purity spiraling doesn't start as the spiral. It starts at you expecting to receive status or receive respect by signaling something about inroup status. It's kind of like the the um it's very adjacent to the uh trad thing, I think.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Um Okay. Uh but what do you think of these so far? Like pretty good.
>> I like them. Yeah. I think they have pretty good reasons behind them. Yeah.
>> Yeah. Um uh next one is in action.
delaying an action until conditions are perfect or prerequisites are met when they aren't truly necessary.
>> Oh yes, >> date start a project once I'm thinner, richer, or more certain. Um, distinct from classic thought, sloths, inaction is often as bad as sloths in the modern era. Uh, which yeah, I totally agree with that. this this idea and I and I see it so much with otherwise really well-meaning people that don't see the damage this is doing to their lives.
>> Mhm.
>> Yeah. I mean initiative is really important, right? It's like sometimes you kind of just have to well if you don't take the chance at at things then you never learn from any potential mistakes and you never have any action that actually becomes anything >> exactly >> like initiative initiative is important >> in fact I would encourage everyone here who's listening to tomorrow try to learn something new uh that you can do with AI. Let's say let's narrow this down. If you don't know how to make videos with AI, make videos with AI. If you don't know how to It could be my V tubing feature on Arfab. It could be um learning to vibe code. We have vibe coding apps on our fab by the way, but you can also use other other stuff to learn to vibe code.
>> You can even just learn how to how to use it for any sort of topic to like better your life like make a fitness like trainer like prompt one or something like that.
Yeah, we we live in a world where there is no and if you don't know how to like reminds me of my dad. He's like, "Well, I I don't know how to use AI." And I'm like, "Ask the freaking AI, right?"
Like, [laughter] >> "Ask the AI how to use AI." True.
>> Yeah. It's like literally anything you want to do, anything you want to learn in a modern context, sit down and ask an AI, right? Uh if if you wanna if you want to learn if you're like there's some skill I've always wanted to learn.
I've always wanted to be a musician.
I've always wanted to be tomorrow figure it out.
>> You know what I could learn? I could ask the you know there was one skill I've always wanted to learn. I have a Renaissance loot. Don't ask me why or you could ask me why. But I have a Renaissance loot and uh I have never been able to play it because who where the [ __ ] do you learn? Now I can use AI.
>> Yes. I just realized. Okay. Do you want to know the reason why?
>> Why?
>> Because when I was younger, I had this romantic idea of sitting on a wall and playing it.
[laughter] You are a nerd.
You are. BECAUSE I KNOW IT WASN'T JUST ABOUT SITTING on a wall. When we talk about a don't maximize a self-image, you're thinking [laughter] about how everyone sees you when you're sitting on a wall playing a loop and how you come off to yourself when you're sitting on a wall and playing a >> loop. I I was that kid that would like listen I was the girl in class that would climb a tree and read books like Lord of the Rings or something like that.
>> So then you could feel like the type of person who climbed a tree to read a book.
>> YES. EXACTLY. [laughter] >> [snorts] >> SO, I BOUGHT THIS loot and I'm like, wait, how am I going to learn how to play it? Oh, huge [ __ ] mistakes. Now I have loot.
>> Oh, by the way, sorry, you you might not be comfortable doing this. Um uh but if you are comfortable doing it, would you mind uh sharing one of your models with me so I can look at at uh how you do things like smile like that?
>> I could share uh let me ask I I have one rigger that would probably be open to it. I will ask if I could and then if so I will do that.
>> Okay, great. Yeah, sorry. I was just looking at your smile and I noticed it didn't curve up as much like mine does um when your mouse is open which is pretty nice.
>> Yeah. Yeah. I I have I have a bunch of models from different riggers. I don't >> I would have to ask the riggers so that they don't get super freaking >> Yeah, that's that's totally understandable. And if you're not okay with doing it, um >> although I'm totally fine with doing it if my if my rigger is okay, I'm totally fine with doing it.
Um, >> I can also point you towards some in directions.
>> Actually, I'm not even sure I'd be able to gain any information from it because what I really need is a CMO3 file. And I bet you don't have that.
>> Probably ask one of my riggers for that.
The one that I think would be okay with it.
>> Surprised Malcolm's model isn't an evil empress. Oh, no. That model I didn't make because I was trying to make a model like that. I was just asking for it to put hair over the face of the rig because that was the model where I was trying one of my more advanced features which was removing hair from the face, constructing the features behind the hair, then putting the hair back over the face for hair swishing. Um, so >> when do you think it will be done? Also, Hector, thank you so much for the 10 by the way over on Rumble. Thank you. When do you think that'll be done? At least like to the level it is now with the one that you have. Like the one that you sent me >> that that's already live. That's live right now.
>> Wait, I could like get that right now.
>> Yeah, that that one was actually very primitive compared to the version right now. I made that one like 3 days ago.
>> Is the new version out?
>> Yeah, even the one for the elf ears is out now. I just got that up.
>> I am going to try this right now. I was telling her earlier that like I had to goon science um had to learn how to make different girl ears. So like the um when they're when they're a furry they bounce up and down like this like they're sort of like jello- but when they're elf ears or like goblin ears they have to bounce up and down on an axis right here while staying fairly hard. That's >> true. Yeah.
>> And then uh the human ears don't bounce much at all. That was the feature I just added. Um but yeah, no, you can do um and if you see anything where you're like you can improve X or Y, uh for almost every feature in the app, there are uh redundancies and different ways of doing things. Um that should make it like really easy to make high quality.
>> I am going to mess with this tomorrow for sure.
>> You don't have to.
>> No, I I I I want to mess with it. I'm very excited. Do you have to get live?
You have to get live 2D like the trial version or >> what what program?
>> No, no. Live 2D cubism editor. The site will guide you on what you need to get and if it's not intuitive, tell me because then I know what to change about the instructions on the website.
>> Oh, so it has instructions. It tells you exactly what to do.
>> Yeah, it has uh it's it's the free version of the live cubism 2D editor. um which ours exports for. I may have to upgrade to a paid version as soon as I get breast physics which is the next thing I'm working on.
>> Um >> nowadays >> the live 2D cubism editor it's like n I don't know is it like $15 a month or something? Like you you'd only need to pay for it for one month if you're just making like a number of models.
>> Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah. Um, and I can probably remove a few of the meshes around the mouse to get the boobs in for free. Um, but uh, yeah, >> I think it's better to keep it. Even $15 a month is crazy cheap. Anyway, >> yeah, >> somebody said Malcolm's the cotton gin of the rigger industry. [laughter] >> Dude, are you going to check it out?
>> You checking it out, Kyro? Dude, I'm going to check it out like like as soon as I can.
>> Gotta make my uh I gotta make Quanglet, you know?
Right. The Quangler fun um [laughter] >> I was telling her at the beginning of stream I wanted to make like a Muhammad and pop on stream with it to just terrify [laughter] her like STREAM OFF STREAM OFF this black avatar.
>> Oh my god.
>> Um [laughter] leaflet flailing at her keyboard to kick me out of the room.
[laughter] >> Oh man.
>> Um okay. So next next new sin here uh and and this is one that that Jesus does talk about to some some extent is is self flagagillation. Um so this is uh indulging in negative emotions about things you can't change about the past.
>> Dude, I do this all the time is my biggest one. I get so upset and like it it makes me almost have Tourette's where sometimes I'll just say bad things >> like I shouldn't and there's no reason over something similar you literally a combination of similar [laughter] I literally just like shout things like [gasps] >> um I I I do that too >> and it's sinful it's clearly sinful if I look at the intentionality of what's in the Bible right >> um the list of new sins will go live on our channel sometime next week. We just did a tract really recently about killing babies. So, uh we [laughter] try to pace out our tracks a bit. Um but yeah, uh the the um or you could just use an AI into it.
>> Send us a link to the program. Sure.
It's rfab.ai.
>> Uh rfab.aidemo.
>> I I've typed it out for you, Shnie.
Thank you.
Um, total baby annihilation. [laughter] >> Put [snorts] them in the box.
>> Have you ever seen the baby merchant song?
>> No.
>> Wait, you don't know the baby merchant song? Do you want to see it?
>> I guess. Feel free to send it to me.
Yeah. Um, what what what is the uh um Oh, yeah. The point I'm making is I think for something like self flagagulation even like leaf for your own life.
>> Yeah.
>> You see it's sinful and against the intentionality of both your goals for yourself, the world, and even the Bible itself.
>> Oh, it's a total waste of time. Not only is it a waste of time, but it it's it's um it's it actually sets you back because it just puts your mood in it puts your mood in a bad spot and then you're like, >> I guess today I guess I'll take today off cuz I'm not feeling good. And then you have that and then you kind of spiral into like not doing things. Yeah.
So, I I totally agree with that. Yeah.
And so for that reason um like like anyone who's watching this and has this problem like like both of us do I think just categorizing it as I am being sinful and indulgent right now can help you break out of it like I have to do something else. This is >> bad. Yeah.
Yeah. So he said, "I Jesus died for our [ __ ] sins, not for us to waste time feeling bad for ourselves." [laughter] Like, imagine that. Like you you imagine Jesus on the cross the next time you're feeling bad about something you can't change and he's like looking at you like, "This is not what I'm up here for." [laughter] And you're like, "You know what? I'M GOING TO GET out of bed. I'm not going to do that." Right. Actually, oh, this is a sin I should add. Getting out of bed. Not getting out of bed the moment you wake up.
>> I do that all the time. It's bad.
>> You think? So, you know what the Opus Day do about this? They they are supposed to jump out of bed and kiss the floor the moment and they do like a recitation thing um about how much they love being alive that day. And I think that's like actually a great thing to do the moment your eyes open. Um, >> I need to get like one of my pretty cure toys and put it there and do the transformation sequence when I get out of when I get up. [laughter] >> No, that would actually work, right? The number one reason >> to do that >> why I don't jump out of bed in the morning on the days I don't is it's because I am in a mental state where I do not feel like I have something to do that day. where I do not feel like I have a tight timeline or something I'm excited about chilling in bed >> like remembering every day. Um I'm going to add this to this. This is a good one.
>> This a good question in chat actually for you.
>> What >> per the lore of what he's talking about how do you separate sinful versus harmful such that sinful things are harmful but at what point does a thing harmful become sinful? I I think it's tied.
I think it's 100% tied. Sins are sins because they're harmful. That's the awesome thing about God. He didn't tell us not to do a bunch of stuff that's awesome. He told us not to do a BUNCH OF STUFF THAT'S GOING to eventually hurt us, right? Yeah.
>> Uh that's that's the awesome thing about this entire system, right? Like if if we just assume that they're the same. If if the Bible told us not to do a bunch of stuff like self-improvement or stuff like that, I'd be like, "Well, this is probably not good." Right. Um, right.
Honestly, it's very interesting because like coming from it from that point of view, it almost feels like your um your journey into Christianity is it's really interesting because it's you're looking at it from a perspective of saying like this is a good idea like this like I have looked at the options and this is this is great.
Yeah. Um, this is uh uh great. I love Well, somebody said the opus day or massac. Yeah, the opus day.
I think some of them are probably massochists, but um like leaflets able to take inspiration from them. This is the coolest thing. You you get another Christian sector or something like that, like jumping out of bed, doing your things, kissing the ground. She's like, "I could do that with a pretty character transformation." That's awesome, right?
Like you take the inspiration from one group that's doing things in a way that's not going to work for you, right?
And then you mix it and you do it in a way that does work for you. And now, you know, you hop out of bed. And this is something I need to work on more these days especially is remembering how short our timelines are, right? Like, >> oh yeah, >> all of human civilization is on a lever right now. The culture wars are on a lever. We are at a point in history where every single day your actions matter. Every [clears throat] day you don't take time to learn something new in the rapidly changing world of AI technology. Every day every day matters.
And to wake up and just be able to breathe. I live in a world today where I can make art by telling it something right. Like that's awesome. in our art system, our uh our system on artfab.ai/demo.
If you try it now, it even has like an auto expand feature like enhance feature which enhances the prompt automatically.
Um which I was excited to add because I always struggle with like AI prompts and everything. BUT LIKE JUST LIKE OH SOMETHING COOL I COULD DO THAT'S NEW.
>> DO DO you want to know the trick? I mean you probably know this already but >> Yeah. Well, what's the trick? The trick is you make you make a bot that makes that enhances your prompts like by a lot. So you specifically make one.
>> Exactly what we do, but now it's a button.
>> Oh, nice. Do you feed it like the the the prompting guides and stuff like that?
>> Yeah, you literally just push a button and it autoenhances it for either western cartoon, anime, uming general.
We have if you have some good prompting guides, I I'd love you to send them to me so I can add them to the prompt that auto uh expands.
>> Yeah, I know some people that are like really good at that can I can I can ask them.
>> That'd be great. Yeah. Well, to go on your point earlier about um sorry your your point about how um we live in a world in which like you you know not time is of the essence and there's like unlimited things that we could be doing to better things. You got to understand too is that our opposition is just they're always sething. They're always seing and they're always man and they always want to destroy things. So you have to like kind of have that mentality as well, right?
It's destruction is a lot easier than creation.
>> Yeah. For the person who said that like well what is the difference between sin and things that are bad for you? Like when I was growing up, this is a question I would have struggled with. I would be like, why don't we just have sex with everyone we see whenever we feel like it, right? Like why don't I go out at night and party? The urban monoculture created this view that like all of this stuff was awesome. Like just go out and party and have sex with whoever you want and do drugs and blah blah blah. And then I look at everyone who did all that stuff and I'm like, "Oh, [laughter and gasps] this is why you don't do it." MHM.
>> IT TURNS OUT THOSE rules weren't just God being a a stickly butt much. He was he had a reason for singing don't do this.
>> Um >> and and uh that that I think makes it a lot easier. You know, we're talking about the next generation. When I think about my kids, right? Like when they're like, "Well, why don't I just party all day, sleep around, whatever." I'm like gesture vaguely at what happened to these people, right? Mhm.
>> Um, >> which is cool when people are like, "How do you I think this is a big realization maybe for some people or whatever.
What's the difference between a sin and something that's just bad for you?" And it's like, they're literally the same thing. What a sin is, is something that's bad for you that you're going to be tempted to do for whatever stupid reason. Whether it's biology or the whatever, right? like something you grew up with or society around you or the way you want to see yourself. Uh it's not that you're not tempted to do things, it's just the things you're tempted to do that [ __ ] up your life. Well, I mean like like I guess a good example of like one that you wouldn't really consider one to I mean maybe I'm I'm wrong on this and you could tell me, but would you consider it a sin if there was a bowl of soup there and that bowl of soup I told you was like probably bad and had like a 50% chance of making you sick and you knew that if you did get sick, you would be out for the whole day.
>> Would you do the consider the sin to eat that soup?
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah, I would. I would too. [laughter] >> And it's an indulgent decision driven by a desire not to waste. So the thing that would drive that decision is generally a good impulse within me. But I need to recognize that in this context, and this is the problem I have with Simone a lot.
You might not know this, but [laughter] Simone has an incredible compulsion not to waste and regularly eats clearly spoiled and bad food. Um, [laughter] and I have had to, [clears throat] she once admitted to me on a stream, she's like, "You know those nuts you took away from me because they were spoiled and making me throw up? I snuck the rest of them." [laughter] >> LIKE, SIMONE, SPOILED NUTS. You're crazy.
the squirrels or something or the birds >> or maybe you mean like a compost or something >> so you feel a little bit less bad about it.
>> Not waste [laughter] impulse.
>> That's a good like compost. A compost you could put in the compost feel a little bit less bad about it. It's like going back into the you know environment.
>> We don't even compost. We could just give it to the freaking chickens.
>> Oh yeah. There you go.
>> Yes.
>> Or pigs or something. recently. She was chastising me because my cereal expired before I ate it. And I was like, "Okay, we'll give it to the chicken." She goes, "No, I'm eating it." And I was like, [laughter] >> she's like, "I'm the human disposal for it. Is it because she's from Japan?"
Because in Japan, they they put the expiration date super early on everything.
>> No, she No, she's descended from Okeis who didn't leave Oklahoma during the Dust Bowl. She's like, "My ancestors are the ones who are like so Oh, okay. I don't know if you read The Grace of Wrath of the Kid, but it's like the first part and you look around and you're like, "Fucking whatever. I'll eat dirt." [laughter] >> Oh, man.
>> Anyway. Anyway, ask >> more here. Okay. Um, the indulgence of sin, needless exposure to temptation. So, this is one where I explicitly counter Catholics. So this is where Catholics are like for priests not allowing them to chastise themselves. I think that's stupid. Um uh you know this is like when Gandhi decided that he was going to sleep with his underage nieces and nephews for temptation to overcome it. It's not that you shouldn't learn to overcome temptation, but don't intentionally put yourself in a situation that you know is going to be bad for you, [gasps] right?
>> Yeah. What the heck?
>> The what? Somebody said not knowing about this Gandhi thing. Yeah, Gandhi was a terrible human being.
>> Really?
>> Really?
>> Really?
>> Well, yeah. Yeah. Tell me.
>> Go off on Gandhi, >> dude. I I I didn't I didn't I don't know much about Gandhi to be honest.
>> Isn't it weird though how a lot of like like people would consider him to be like one of the best people, right? I mean, in terms of like the culture would consider that, right?
>> People consider Mother Teresa to be one of the best people, too. And Mother Teresa was kind of a monster.
>> Dude, this is so How does this keep happening? Like, oh, this is >> about Mother Teresa.
>> No, tell me the story. I I I vaguely remember like like I think I think I heard it from you either on the show or I I vaguely remember it, but go on.
>> Mother Teresa.
>> Hey, Golden Eagle. Thank you for the raid. Thank you.
>> Within a Catholic context, didn't do anything wrong. Okay, we've got to First of all, she did some good things like the idea of like you should uh you know, care for people even when they have diseases that make them look gross and cause disgust. That doesn't mean like just cuz you feel disgust when you look at somebody doesn't mean that you should turn them away. And she set up a lot of care centers and everything like that.
And she even was very honest and and struggled with her faith at times. I don't think any of that is bad. The problem is is that she had the belief, as some Catholics do, that suffering brings you closer to God. Right? This is why some Catholics practice mortification like the Opus Day. But she implemented this belief through the way her hospitals operated. Meaning that they were intentionally operating and uh not giving people the the painkillers they needed and stuff like that to cause additional pain because she thought that would sanctify people's spirits.
>> Really? What the hell?
>> Yeah, that's not great. Um but that was her belief, right? So I don't I don't hate Mother Ter like Mother Teresa I'm like she had a different but like I can understand how as a Catholic where mortification is normal you could come to believe this stuff and so I don't have a [clears throat] disdain I have a hatred for Gandhi like Moral Teresa may have caused suffering but she didn't cause one of the worst wars in world history. Um so Gandhi first of all massive racist. Um it [laughter] sorry I don't mean like racist against white people. Uh he like called black people like apes and stuff like this and was like we don't want any of them in India and like he grew up in Africa. You first of all remember if you were didn't know this >> and not like black people thought that they were incapable of civilization.
very very >> now I don't think that this is necessarily a terrible I'm just saying >> like the best >> sorry this is >> but the next thing that Gandhi did um was that he uh when he was trying to get India free right uh Winston Churchill one of the greatest figures in human history completely predicted World War II and how to prevent it and then solved it but anyway Winston Churchill You haven't read Winston, learning about Winston. Winston Churchill is so [ __ ] cool. Winston Churchill comes out and he's like, "Look, we cannot let India go right now." Okay. Um, you see, there's a problem, right? The territory that is India and Pakistan has a Muslim and Hindi population in it, right? Yeah. And we don't have a good system for dividing these two people. like we need to move more of the Muslim to Muslim concentrated areas, more of the Hindis to Hindi concentrated areas. Um or there's going to be a massive negative outcome from this. Um and he's like just give us time. Like we have plans in place. And God was like, "No, I need it now."
And so he did all these really indulgent protests, right? Um this is on top of all this weird sex stuff and everything like that. Um and uh eventually India got free immediately without without um the the protections put in place and that led to India basically going into a massive civil war like immediately between the Muslims and the Hindus. Um and this is where we got Bangladesh and um uh Pakistan from is they they separated from India uh during this time period and now there's like a risk of nuclear war every day because of this right yeah um and this could have been prevented the UK had a plan to prevent this right but Gandhi's >> literal impatience um uh is what led >> sabotaged everything >> yeah everything yeah >> geez that's crazy like the the the level of suffering that a single person had created right all the way till now. Yep.
Somebody said that Gandhi was getting a common law degree in London the same year as Jack the Ripper began. SO NEW THEORY GANDHI IS JACK THE RIPPER.
[laughter] >> Oh man.
>> It's like in Civ. You know how to save Gandhi is always like the most warlike if you're not playing on the hardest difficulty because it takes him to a one. It's like that's the real Gandhi always actually the most warlike. Um I have a massive personal beef with Gandhi. Also why did India need to be free of Britain? They were so much more efficient before that. Um when they became free they ended up entering a 40-year period of stagnation because they entered pseudocommunism in which everything had to be approved. Research this if you're interested. I should maybe do an episode on why I hate Gandhi so much. Um uh but yeah, he to completely destroyed the Indian economy for like half a century.
>> We should bring back co colonization.
We need to bring back the American empire.
>> Colonization was great. Colonization is how my ancestors became civilized.
British people were throwing poo at each other and built out of houses [laughter] made of poo. Um until the Romans came and and sorted our [ __ ] out, right? Like um >> we the American empire >> world was fairly anim animalistic until uh you know somebody came with civilization and said, "Okay, you freaking animals, this is how you handle it." Okay. And my ancestors were like, "Oh, this is how you build stuff, I guess." [laughter] Oh, long live Bratannia. Yeah, exactly.
[laughter] All hell Bratannia. [laughter] You're thinking wild. Thank you for the events. Thank you. Get a cryptic quote.
Wait, was this Gandhi? It is better to do violence if one has violence in one's heart than to put the cloak uh cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence.
What?
>> Apparently, >> makes sense, I guess.
>> Uh, thank you. Thank you. Uh, uh, no one killed. Thank you. So, >> are you aware we haven't actually talked about anything like We haven't talked about the tabletop gaming in this. We haven't talked about [laughter] anime in this. We >> I was going to talk to you about Star Wars later if we had time.
>> Oh, yeah. We can go into Star Wars, but let's go. I'm going to finish my list here.
>> Let's finish. This is great. Yeah. Yeah.
>> I think this is fun. You know, people will hear this and maybe they can be like, "Oh, this is something I do. I should just see it as a sin.
Then I can guard myself against doing it more." Right?
>> So, the next one here is empty words.
>> Empty words.
>> Venting, complaining, traumading, reciting your day unprompted, uh, trying to drag others into your negative emotional state as fractal murders.
Right. Sorry, I'm going over an AI review of what we did so I don't have to go over all of it. Yeah. The idea is like you when you take somebody's day, a portion of their life, you are fractally mortaring them. The only words that you should communicate to people are words that are either meant to entertain them like create levity uh or words that expand and advance your understanding of the world, right? Like literally everything in this stream, right? like we are having a conversation that hopefully for the people who are watching it is expanding their understanding of the world or you know causing them levity right >> uh but some people they just go up and they're just like this is like even streamers will do this in a way that hurts their audience I think in a big way yeah um >> trauma dumping right like or or worse just >> going through like a selfnarrative to try to paint a better image in in their audience's mind that is more aligned with the way they want to see themselves.
>> Um uh I I think gossip is okay. Gossip can be fun or help expand your knowledge of a social scene. Um I think worse is just like things that aren't even gossip.
Yeah. I mean I I mean it it it makes sense because you're you're Yeah. It's like some energy vampire [ __ ] Exactly like what Tasty Twister said, right?
like you're you're um to basically make yourself feel better, you are you're making someone else's experience, life experience like worse, like the entirety of like their day and everything. And then which could cause them to be less effective.
>> How was your day, Malcolm? It was sin.
somebody said in the comments [laughter] >> um >> expanding the something like this together and I hope it's clear to people like I'm doing it because I want to help other pe like I'm not trying to grift off of people or something or create a cult in a cult. I don't know. Um okay, next one.
Unnecessary status signaling. This one I think is easy but so many people fall for it. Why would you ever buy like a new fancy car for example, right? Um, these things are done purely for ourselves and there are cases where it might make sense for like a job or to secure a certain position that you need to move things forward. Um, but this one I think is like really bad.
>> Can I tell you about mine though? Cuz I actually talked to Simone about this in the morning. So I was talking to her about how I buy these crazy clothes, >> right?
>> Yeah. And the reason that I do it is because I think that the world is boring.
Like modern like it's like the commies, right? Like they they they scoped us.
They [ __ ] everything up. They made us a lot more boring and uninspired. And I think that by being a weird person and like dressing up, you know, spending money to dress up in these weird outfits, I feel like it scops people into possibilities in their mind.
>> Would that count as a sin?
>> Yeah.
>> Or is it because there's a purpose behind it?
>> One, remember, I sin every day. Every day I sin.
>> Everyone does. Yeah.
>> Sin doesn't mean it's something that you should never do. It's just a good way to categorize things in your mind to be like this is a an indulgence that in some cases helps me like you if you buy luxury items as like an armor to help frame yourself a certain way and you move forwards even even myself with like clothing and stuff like that. I sometimes buy well very rarely more expensive clothing than I need but I do it right um because I the the marginal benefit or whatever right uh but I think just understanding that like >> it's important that we don't lie to ourselves around why we're doing something right so >> so the context matters like the the intent matters behind it >> yeah like why why are you I mean I suspect for you the biggest importance of your clothes as is for most people is the self-framing, right? Like it helps you see yourself in a way that might make it easier for you to communicate yourself in that way to the world and not just to the >> sorry go ahead keep going >> world but the people you care about. So when you start dating um or if you are dating now um the the uh the way that you dress IRL is going to uh frame who you are for that person. And if you're dating the type of person who I think is going to get along with you and be really happy to be married to somebody like you.
>> Mhm.
you dressing in a way that looks like the way my wife is dressing, you know, classic, like medieval, whatever, you know. Um, >> I think that that's that's good signaling for what you're looking for.
>> I see.
>> Um, you you drive up in a in a Maserati or whatever, I don't think the type of guy who you want is going to be more likely to want to marry you.
>> You come in a >> Renaissance fair outfit, right?
[laughter] I think >> there's also >> I think he's going to be like, "Yeah, >> I think there's also the self there's also the self buff element to it.
>> How do you feel about that?
>> The the the the way I see it, it's like a self-casted genjutsu, right? Where like you you dress up for the occasion for things and it sort of sets your mind in like a specific way, I think." Well, I mean, this is the way even just before talking to you, I was talking with my wife and you know, we live in this house that was built in the 1700s and she wears these night gowns that are the old timey type of night gowns. It's a shmese for people who don't know what a shmese is. It's the full lengths full to your arm.
>> Wait, hold on. She she wears that like that's what I >> Yes. If you watch like a Victorian thing, [laughter] you know when like she's in a chair and she's like doing the brush on her hair and she's got the full white.
>> Yeah. That's what I wear too.
>> Oh my god. Yeah. And I see ridiculous.
[laughter] It's so beautiful on you.
Like it literally feels like I'm in one of my For people who don't know, I have a reincarnated villainous ma addiction.
Um [laughter] right. Uh, and she literally looks like one of the characters from like these medieval animes that I love to watch.
Uh, >> so classy. Yeah, she wears a full shmese.
>> That's so awesome. Shaggle, thank you for the tip, by the way. Thank you, man.
>> Thank you. Super happy time, Steve.
Thank you.
>> All right, go ahead.
>> It's fun when you dress that. So like imagine the way you sell frame if you dress that way and you do your morning routine of like brushing your hair in the medieval whatever they call it the the la toilet apparently is what it was [laughter] called um call >> it changes like your your your like how you how you interact with things like again it's like a self hypnosis sort of a thing >> and that's why I started dressing up for stream >> even though I don't have to. I can just wear pajamas all day, right? It doesn't really matter. But >> when you say pajamas, did you mean a shamse or actual pajamas?
>> I used to wear like an anime shirt, like the one with just like an anime character on it, stereotypical nerd shirt. Uh, specifically Uma Musu.
>> And then your video about like getting dressed up and getting out there is like your actual life. That that song.
>> Yes.
the that that thing the thing that like she was wearing I was wearing in like the beginning of the video that's like the kind of [ __ ] I wore basically and then uh so what happened was then I I I started with like okay I'm buying new pajamas and these pajamas are only for sleep so like I only wear these when I'm going to sleep and it's like I only wear this when I'm doing this like these are my cooking clothes I still use the anime shirts but for cooking because I don't want to like screw everything up right so I got like my lab coat on my lab coat and then my got my shirt and then that's my cooking outfit, right? And then I have the streaming and the thing I added was >> a lab coat for cooking and medieval style.
>> Check this out. You got to buy genuine Pyrex lab equipment like flasks and beers and only use that for cooking >> because it's the same thing and it's cheaper.
>> That's really good. If you could send me the send No, not me. Simone, tell her.
Malcolm, [laughter] >> I I'll tell her.
>> Um, >> I mean, my life, you might not know this about our family. We all have matching pajamas. So, the kids and I all have matching um plaid pajamas that we wear, like red plaid.
>> We we have it in some of the videos.
It's so cute. I love I'm I've actually thought about streaming in it. Um and [laughter] >> and that's that's when I'm doing that.
The reality of our life at home. I'm one of these people. Um I I don't know. I'm going to get in trouble for this. Uh, like I am almost never closed in my house. Like I see no reason to be. I wake up, I work, I go to bed. Why am I wearing clothing if it's likeing summer and it's hot, right?
>> It does get pretty damn hot. Yeah.
>> I don't know. I don't understand the point of of of clothing in your [laughter] room.
Um, people are like, "Oh, your kids will see you naked." It's like, I'm not going to have sex with them. [laughter] That's the freaking problem with the nudity stuff, right? Like >> um they they're not turned on by it.
Like what what's what [laughter] where's the challenge here, right? But anyway, >> the funny thing is is like in Japan that's pretty common, right? Like taking a bath and stuff like that. They don't do that >> everywhere in history, right? You know, >> basically modesty. Yeah. But if modesty is just performative and it have serves no function, I'm not going to waste my time on it, right? Like >> um I I I [laughter] I'll be modest in public, right? You know, where where it makes sense for other people, but um >> my kids are little crazy monkeys that just want to fight [laughter] all the time.
>> Do you remember do you remember uh when that that that video got in trouble because you called them little bastards?
[laughter] >> Oh, yeah, I did. Yeah, your video got taken down cuz I called my kids little bastard.
>> We got it back eventually though. We got it back.
>> Yeah, >> it took a while though. It took It took a while. Yeah, we did. Asmin Gold had to cover it. It was ridiculous.
>> Yeah. Yeah. He he called his kids like like like affectionately little bastards on stream and it it it got taken down for hate speech towards a protected class children.
>> Let's be [laughter] honest, we all know why that video was really taken down.
now because I pointed out that trans people do them a huge amount of mass shootings. Actually, a new a new study came out few weeks ago. It hadn't really done the rounds in conservative circles, but it's called um transgender homicides in Britain 2020 to 2024.
>> Oh jeez.
>> Maybe 2020 to 2025. I remember studying names. But anyway, it showed that transgender people in Britain during that period at least uh and this appears to apply to transgender people more broadly are more likely to cause a homicide than be the victim of a homicide. Um >> wow. So all of this all of this uh all of this they're out there killing trans people. It's just >> I mean we already knew it was kind of we already knew it was kind of >> everybody you knew they're all mass mur you saw our episode on this. WE ALL KNEW IT. [laughter] We all you know that the shooting at the mosque recently was two trans people.
>> Really? What? I I [laughter] >> Yeah, that got covered up quick. That was like a week ago. Yeah.
>> Wait, really? That was only a week ago and we didn't even hear about >> it. Might have been two weeks. I don't know. Between our last stream and this stream, >> do you guys remember like dude like the written house thing happened and we never heard the end of it for like two [ __ ] years, man.
And he was completely [ __ ] justified, dude. 100%. Yeah, 100%.
>> Um, so good. In >> fact, he was insanely uh like, what's the word?
He really tried not to do it. Written house, >> he said they thought the recent Muslim attack was two white supremacists. From what I heard, it was two trans people.
You guys can look this up and double check me on that. Um, okay. Next sin here and this is the one where I go directly against the it's the one sin where I think the Bible makes a mistake or not a mistake but I think a m it was directionally correct during its time period but wrong in a modern context.
>> Okay.
>> Um which is to say that you should give essentially endless aid to foreigners without uh feeling anything about it.
Um, and you can try to get around this.
And I tried. I was like, am I misreading something here? Uh, it's in both the New and the Old Testament. Okay.
>> Um, uh, give I think there are negative externalities for sort of hedonistic mercy, right? Um, uh, going way overboard in terms of aid to people who have nothing culturally in common with you. And no, here I went over the Bible.
I was like maybe it's saying not foreigners but no it explicitly uses the word foreigners all the time. Um >> it could be a contextual thing kind of like you know the other laws that we don't follow anyway.
>> Yeah. And I think that in their time period they were right. The society needed to be more kind to outsiders. I think in our time period we're dealing with negative externalities around that.
And so I put the hedonistic mercy as a sin here. Right.
Yeah, >> that's one of the biggest things they use against people too to like push this >> thing that's obviously wrong, >> right? It's it's so obviously a bad idea, but then it's like they hold us they they hold us hostage to our own beliefs basically. And I I think that's >> it's not worth it to pay it any heed.
>> Yeah. Next one here is um uh uh this was one that Simone added after we went through this is entitlement. Believing that you deserve anything whether that be respect, being treated with dignity, >> literally talking to her about how it's the worst. Like entitlement is like literally the worst. Like I I think that of all things in this world that entitlement is the one thing that destroys society the most. It was like singlehandedly like >> Yeah. It was really fun to talk to her about it and like it was like >> somebody said >> it's bad. I This is why I think communism is is is like the worst basically.
>> Absolutely. I I I think it's um uh yeah, entitlement is worse. Like if I controlled societies, I would think it's worse executive punishment. Um I I like if somebody is repeatedly entitled I think it's worth just executing them.
That that is how [laughter] extreme I would go.
>> Um >> you said callies in the wood shipper [laughter] >> helicopter ride.
>> There [laughter] is there is nothing worse than entitlement in terms of societal uh negative externalities about this. Right.
>> It's so bad.
