Joe Rogan podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.
Hello, Peter.
Hello, Joe.
Good to see you.
Likewise.
We're fucking neighbors, man.
How are you liking the move?
Loving it.
You've been here a year now, right?
A solid year?
A little over, yeah.
Yeah?
Loving it?
I don't know what took so long.
Yeah, it's a different world, right?
Yeah.
When you live in a place that only has a million people, it's like, oh, like,
wow.
This is, uh, you could do everything here.
If I'd done this three years earlier, I could have paid half as much for my
house, too.
That's the other thing.
Right.
It's so smart to have done this in 2017.
Well, lucky you did it then and not now, because now it's even harder.
It's harder to find a house.
It's almost impossible.
Yeah.
I mean, every person we introduce to our real estate agent says the same thing,
which is
like.
You have to build.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's that, it's that wild, which is, uh, I guess good.
I don't know.
You know, it's, uh, it's tricky because, you know, Google's building their,
they have this
gigantic sale looking building near the river.
Have you seen it?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
So there's going to be a bunch of wokesters running around from that place.
They have to fill that building up, you know, and then, you know, you get, is
there
a more woke corporation than Google?
Yes.
Which one?
Microsoft.
Really?
Did you hear, did you hear that thing Ben Shapiro did?
No.
Oh my God.
I didn't hear it.
What'd he do?
He did.
It was the funny.
It's so funny that I went and listened to it again, recorded it on my phone off
my computer
just so I could text it to my friends.
So they had this thing where, um, I saw the thing where they introduced,
everyone introduced
themselves.
With their pronouns and they described themselves.
You're right.
So I would say, hi, my name is Peter Atiyah.
I'm a light skinned guy with a shaved head wearing a green shirt.
I go by he, him.
Yeah.
And you would say Caucasian probably.
Yes, yes, I would, I would, right.
Yeah.
And, um, and then, but then one of the women said, before we begin, I would
just like to
state that our land with the land that this building sits on was actually once
owned by
her, you know, and she rattled off 17 tribes.
Yes.
At which point, like my brother was like, well, just show me the title deed.
Like, is it yours or is it theirs?
Cause if it's theirs, you really should give it back.
What is happening?
What's going on?
But Microsoft, which is interesting.
They were never like this.
Like what all of a sudden they went full tilt.
They just went from zero to 11, right?
They don't have a history of like ads that were woke.
I don't know.
It's, it, it has provided.
Give me some volume on this.
Cause it's so stupid.
And lots in store for you.
First, we want to acknowledge that the land where the Microsoft campus is
situated was
traditionally occupied by the Sammamish, the Duwamish, the Snoqualmie, the Suquamish,
the Muckleshoot, the Snohomish, the Tulalip, and other coast Salish peoples
since time immemorial.
A people that are still here continuing to honor and bring to light their
ancient heritage.
My name is Allison Wines.
Give back their land.
I'm a senior program manager in our developer tools division.
I'm an Asian white female with dark brown hair wearing a red sleeveless top.
I'm watching this.
And I'm Seth Juarez, program manager in the AI Platform Group.
I'm a tall Hispanic male wearing a blue shirt, khaki pants.
Today we kick off two days of learning more about the latest solutions,
exploring how these
key innovations can empower you to do great things and connecting with peers.
The other folks tell their pronouns.
The other folks told their pronouns.
Is that for hearing impaired people?
No, it's for visually impaired people, which is the greatest irony, right?
It's like, we want the people who can't see our color to know our color.
Like it literally is the most logically inconsistent thing you could ever have
with what we think
are the right values.
That's interesting.
Like how much racism is there amongst visually impaired people?
Well, apparently there'll be more now because we get, but I mean, if you really
stop and think
about it, like they can't make that distinction.
They can only judge people based on how the people communicate with them.
They can't look at someone and prejudge.
They're probably the least racist people alive.
Well, we're going to fix that.
But all the fucking shit about the thing that's ironic is she's describing all
the different
tribes that have owned the land.
Well, why do you think there's so many?
It's because they killed each other and stole the land from each other.
Like the fuck are you saying?
Like there was a, Michael Knowles had this conversation I watched on YouTube
where this
professor, this woke professor was trying to say that we should give back land
to native
tribes.
And he was like, okay, but which ones?
You got to decide which ones because like the Comanche took it from the Apache,
took it
from the, and he was like going through the history of it.
It's like, how do you decide?
Like, do you go back?
Well, the Comanche took it from you, but you took it from the Navajo, but the
Navajo took
it from the Pawnee.
And they're like, oh.
I'm going to ask her because she'll know.
It's so exhausting.
What is happening to us?
This wokeness.
You know, it's easy to say the pendulum's going to swing the other way and it
probably
will.
But my brother actually said this and I think he's accurate.
It's not a pendulum.
It's a wrecking ball.
A pendulum implies just this benign little thing that's going to go back, but
it's not.
It's going to go and it's going to kill a bunch of people and ruin a bunch of
lives and careers
on the way back to some reasonable equilibrium.
I think the only reasonable equilibrium is mind reading software.
I really do.
I think the reasonable equilibrium is going to be something that allows us to
read each other's
minds so that there's no confusion whatsoever about what your intent is.
Although, did you hear the person, um, I forwarded this article, so I have a
group text with a
bunch of friends and my brother where we just, this is our only outlet for this
insanity.
And, um, someone wrote, uh, actually John Stewart defended Dave Chappelle after
the special
and said, look, his intent was X, right?
Right.
And this person, I don't remember who it was.
I don't remember what, you know, it was in the independent or something like
that wrote
this whole thing saying intent is bullshit.
Intent means nothing.
And it was so ridiculous because the argument she gave was homicide.
She's like, even if you don't mean to kill somebody, it's still manslaughter to
which we're
all at the same time.
Like, yeah.
And there's a difference between first degree, second degree, involuntary, like,
of course,
intent matters.
Of course it matters.
Yeah.
But the point is there are people now arguing intent is irrelevant.
That's the dumbest thing ever because like, what if someone, if you can be
charged with
manslaughter, if you get in an argument with someone, like say if you are in a
situation
with someone and, uh, they bump into your car and you yell at them and they get
in your face
and take a swing at you and you knock them out and they fall and hit their head
and die.
You can get charged with manslaughter for that.
That is so much different than breaking into someone's house and shooting them
in the face.
Right.
It's so much different.
Like plotting out.
So the intent is everything.
Absolutely.
And the idea of communication is always, it's always, I want to express my
thoughts to you
so you can better understand what I'm thinking and we can figure out what's
right and what's
wrong.
We can hash things out.
We can work on a plan.
If you don't know what the fuck a person really means and you're only going by
words,
like what are we, are we code now?
Like intent doesn't matter.
Emotions don't matter.
Thoughts don't matter.
Of course it matters.
It's like the only thing that makes us human.
It's so dumb, but it's people taking advantage of what the internet provides,
which is this
ability to communicate and express outrage and push buttons, right?
So because we have this new ability to do this, there's a lot of bad actors
that use that,
that use that ability to communicate, to find things to complain about that are
really not
relevant.
They're not really something you should be complaining about.
And if you do complain about it, it's really because you don't have any
legitimate problems
in your real life.
Well, I think the other thing is there's an insecurity and there, actually
there's an opinion
piece in the Wall Street Journal today about this, right?
Which is, uh, what was the, the title of the article was something along the
lines of
why the woke can't take a joke.
And what it basically came down to was the, and this was quoting guys from like
a hundred
years ago, making the same thing when it came to jokes about religion.
And the idea was if you aren't comfortable in your position, you're going to be
easily
offended when somebody rattles you, when somebody pokes fun at you.
And if you're comfortable, like if I, if I came here and said, oh, hunters are
wankers,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Like it wouldn't offend you because you're very comfortable in your position in
your beliefs.
And it's like, Hey, if you don't like hunting, that's cool.
But that says nothing about me.
It wouldn't coming from you because you're a hunter, you know what I'm saying?
Like if you came to me and said, bow hunting is bullshit, I'd be like, ha ha.
But if anybody said it to you, it wouldn't faze you.
Well, it wouldn't, but it wouldn't be a converse.
It would be a conversation where I would probably, if I respected that person,
I would want to
either defend it or explain my position.
But you wouldn't be offended is the point.
You could, you could engage with them as opposed to throwing up a flag.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, it's, it's a weird thing that we're doing right now with words.
You know, there's, there's, this is a strange time where we're trying to ban
words and we're
trying to change the meaning of words and eliminate nuance in conversations.
And again, we're doing it because of social justice, social justice, right?
And the, the, the people that use social media to try to enact social justice,
which really
doesn't change.
It's not really getting anybody justice.
It's just getting the rocks off of these people that enjoy complaining.
And most of them really should be doing something else.
Most of the people on Twitter should be doing something else.
I, I, I have like radically reduced my amount of time on Twitter, but every now
and then I
open it up and it's like watching a fucking, like a room that's like five by
five filled
with 400 chickens and they're just squacking each other and pecking each other.
It's like, Jesus, this is horrible.
It's so bad for your mental health.
It's just people arguing and dunking on each other all day long.
Even outside of that, my, my roommate from med school, who's a urologist called
me yesterday
because he couldn't wait to tell me this ridiculous story.
So a colleague of his, this female urologist, who's badass surgeon was giving a
lecture to
the medical school, which is common, right?
You'll always have the surgeon will come in or the doctor will come in.
And before she got up to give her lecture, the Dean said to her, I'm not making
this up.
This is a urologist giving a lecture to a group of medical students said, um, I
would appreciate
it if you would not use the word penis during this lecture.
He said it before the lecture.
She said, it's an anatomic term.
I'm a urologist.
What would you like me to say?
And what, what he came up with some idiotic.
Oh, uh, he said, um, maybe you could call it a male erectile tissue.
And she was like, well, she's now fucking with him.
She's like, but what if it's flaccid,
