Jonathan Taplin with Tom Friedman: The End of Reality and the War in Gaza

[@veredp.6779]

What’s real today: people talking face to face, hugging, exchanging ideas, sharing a meal, laughing, crying. Playing with children and teaching them, while learning from our interactions with them.

[@danieljulian4676]

Children? They're just going to grow up into giant two-legged hamsters. At the rate things are going, lots of babies born this year won't survive to your respectable old age, because almost every ground ape wants to have more bananas than the neighbors.

Perhaps Jonathan Taplin had a reason for only “showcasing” four billionaires (Andreesen, Musk, Thiel and Zuckerberg). I would suggest that Jeff Bezos’ control of the consumer market, not to mention the way you get there, AWS, should be included in this primordial mix.

Good, moral, decent man. Brilliant man. Clearly lives talking mainly to himself. The fascists and greedmongers count on this. For all our sakes, he desperately needs an "anger translator"

[@bai7333]

This. How badly I wish more people would watch/ listen to this or read the “End of Reality”. The bad guys are winning…

The Fateful Triangle: The United States, Israel and the Palestinians is a 1983 book by Noam Chomsky about the relationship between the US, Israel and Palestine. Chomsky examines the origins of this relationship and its meaningful consequences for the Palestinians and other Arabs. The book mainly concentrates on the 1982 Lebanon War and the pro-Zionist bias of most US media and intellectuals

There's an upside to "the end of reality" and that's the end of Reality TV.

[@joejohnson6327]

But the end of reality began with reality TV. 😵‍💫

[@danieljulian4676]

@@joejohnson6327 Well, you know how the saying goes, "the end justifies the means".

It took 25 years these two guys realize Peter Teal was an ass 😂

UBI would be a pay off to take over white collar jobs and make a small group of men very rich in the end.

If I was a cartoonist , I would draw a map of the US with the caption, America in the Age of STUPID.

Amazing interview.❤

[@rainmanjr2007]

Pal's won't take that initiative because a two state agreement would automatically recognize Israel's Right to exist. Hamas won't do that so there can be no solution involving hamas or their sister, hezbollah.

[@DruvKent]

Rivetting and thought provoking conversation. Thank you Tom for bringing these voices to the fore

[@texasbluebonnet4303]

Such great, informative guys! Thank you both for this get together.

[@texasbluebonnet4303]

Section 230 of the Descency Act needs to be used to bring these guys to the table and put them on notice . Bill Clinton and Al Gore it appears helped to further erode our Democracy.

[@ortforshort7652]

UBI is an inevitability - automation will replace most work. If people have a lot of time on their hands, that's a good thing to have the time and resources to do your own thing. If your own thing is nothing and the only use you have is work, what actually is the point of your life at that point? i.e. If you have nothing to live for but work, then you have nothing to live for - especially when your work is no longer needed.

[@narkelnaru2710]

Im glad that i have been right about Tom Friedman.... he's stopped making sense to me..

[@JulieFerguson-t1c]

Love this❤ Thank you.

Um, ah, um ah, um, ah to distraction.

[@kevinhale4921]

No kidding

[@danieldepaolo3012]

The government would not pay people to stay home in their pajamas!!!! The idea would be they could find ways to still be useful to society, but they wouldn't need to worry as much about making ends meet!!!! I love the interview, but I take serious issue with this idea that invokes Reagan's mythical welfare queen.

[@kyberuserid]

Don't get ol.

[@kevinhale4921]

Um um um um Jesus Christ dude.

[@georger743]

This guy sounds like a crank to me. Not buying it.

Deep fakes are not a bad thing if used judiciously. I would love to see a movie with, say, Bogart, DeNiro and DiCaprio all in their twenties doing their thing.

[@revimeicler7960]

Palestinian partner??? 2 state solution? What are you talking about? please name a plausible Palestinian for that partnership. You've lost me. Now you're just talking about something ridiculous
