Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager, this is the Fireside Chat with Otto.

0:05.2

How well-known is Otto? You ask? Probably not asking, but I'll ask.

0:11.6

Anyway, first of all, is he up? What's the story here? Is he awake?

0:14.8

No.

0:15.6

No, okay. By the way, Otto goes into position as soon as the cameras and lights arrive. It's really

0:21.2

adorable to watch. So I was in Hawaii over the weekend, giving some lectures,

0:26.6

which was a very moving experience. Over a thousand people, the Aloha Freedom Coalition invited me,

0:35.1

and it was very moving to talk to so many and spend hours posing for pictures with people

0:42.0

at the outset, it is a bit depressing, and it always has been in my life, the inability of so

1:37.3

many people in the world to recognize evil, to not understand that Hamas embodies evil,

1:44.7

it is to truly have what we call a broken moral compass. And it's not new. A lot of people did not

1:54.5

understand the evil that the Nazis presented. Most people did not understand the evil that the

2:01.5

communists represented. Even today people will frequently take umbridge at calling communism evil.

2:09.0

The fact that it killed 100 million people, civilians, not wartime deaths, civilians.

2:15.6

It means nothing. As Stalin said, one death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic. He should know,

2:24.2

he killed 20 to 40 million of his own people. I have long, long ago, this was the first big moral
