Well, howdy there, internet people, it's Bell again.

0:04.3

So today, we're going to talk about MAGA, turning on Musk and Ramoswamy.

0:10.3

That didn't take long at all, did it?

0:12.8

And it's happening for the most MAGA of reasons.

0:17.0

So, Ramoswamy hopped on social media and proceeded to launch into a lengthy rant about how American culture celebrates mediocrity and how tech companies need immigrants because Americans spend too much time watching sitcoms.

0:34.6

I'm not joking. That was really kind of central to his thesis. Basically, Americans

spend too much time celebrating A.C. Slater and Zach Morris and making fun of Screech.

0:47.2

Yes, referencing Saved by the Bell. For those a little younger, it was a TV show from

1:37.2

But it said the right had split into two factions, the right right and the tech right. And the tech right wants tech immigrants. And the right

1:47.3

told them to hire Americans. And the tech right said, no, you guys are dumb. Then the right

1:55.1

said, you should train us. And the tech right said, you can't train that much dumb out of someone.

2:02.6

Musk replied to the summary by saying, quote, that pretty much sums it up.

2:08.8

And please understand, the actual summary is more offensive than my paraphrased version.

2:15.8

Obviously, that didn't go over well either and led to a bunch of MAGA

2:20.8

right taking shots at Musk. It spiraled all the way out to the fringes of the MAGAverse
