Something has changed. Today the cartoonist skipped the "mug or a glass, tankard, chalice a vessel of any kind" spiel.
Maybe he's anticipating some hate-watching.
I hope it takes, I just do 5-second skips until he gets to "the thing that makes everything better".

He gave the spiel. I'm 11 min in at the moment as I do my Sat morning work routine.

Oops, you are right. I guess I'm just really quick with that right-arrow key.
Third Act. He's doing an interview with Hotep Jesus that should be interesting.

So far today I can't find a flaw in the reasoning. I did take exception to the previous relatively unqualified statement of "get away from black people", and I still do. Get away from crime, or get away from racism is a more precise, less "those people" are the problem way to say the same thing.
In prior videos I agreed that "help" is unhelpful, because a person has to take initiative. Educating oneself has never been more accessible and affordable.

So far I've seen a response from one black woman. Her conclusion: "He's racist." In accordance with prophesy.
I'm going to go work on my front porch, but I'll do a search on 'hotep scott' and look at the videos later.

The interview. The first ten minutes is filler. Overall a rehash of his Episode 2030.
Scott Adams Interview - It's Okay to Be White

The cartoonist today:
https://www.tshirt-factory.ro/contin...-cat-20135.png
Declares it a 'no news' day, reads a comment about whether he needs a food taster -- then at the last moment reads about Katie Hobbs and Sineloa. No news my shiney metal....

I didn't hear any news, but that's by choice mostly.
Really enjoying the direction this is headed. Scott is the Babe Ruth of cartoonists. Fail to make it on base, or hit it outta the park.
Looking forward to the demise of the corrupt legacy papers. Good time to exit that slowly sinking ship.

TLDR version:
media.patriots.win/post/KnkHdmIdagQK.jpeg
edit: "Adams apparently had nerve enough to notice and mention that 26% of black respondents disagreed with that statement" [ source]
In a parallel Universe a parallel-Universe Scott Adams simply says "What do we know about 25% of poll respondents? Anyway..."

The super interesting poll would be to determine if it's the same 25% of people who are consistently wrong, or if people take turns being wrong. My hunch is we take turns, mostly. A sliver of people probably seek untruth like a moth to fire.
