Summary

American writer, journalist, and one half of the Habibi Bros., Siraj Hashmi joins Michael this week for a discussion on The List of Twitter users who need their phone taken away, whether or not a large part of the lockdown crisis is about the intentional creation of an outgroup, how the collective social outrage for Trump may have mutated into hatred for the unvaxed, how people currently cherry-pick their values to suit their social needs, how AOC plays a professional wrestling heel for the GOP and how her image has been severely compromised, why Neo-Confederate Rick Wilson is arguably the worst person on Twitter, Siraj's deep connection to Pakistan and being forced to flee shortly after the events of 9/11, how poorly South Asians are treated in the Middle East, how America has earned the moniker of "The Great Satan" overseas, why it's more important to value truth over picking a side, an explanation of what Taliban rule will mean for the people of Afghanistan, plus how the CIA dealt with not knowing how to torture prisoners at Guantanamo Bay, and so much more!When it comes to online dating, there are superficial swiping apps, and then there are the "expert" matching apps.

0:00.0	and there's nothing going on tonight, we can't see you right now, but we just can't just get inside.
0:17.0	Good afternoon, Michael Malice here.
0:25.5	But that we are welcome for the next hour.
0:27.5	We have with us a very special guest, this is by popular demand, which I usually try to deny because the masses have no minds.
0:35.5	But we have with the Saraj Hashmi who is created the list, co-host of the Bibi power hour, my Semitic mouth didn't even say it correctly.
0:43.5	So please chastise me accordingly. You are one of the funniest people on Twitter and you seem to be in a state of constant exasperation by all the banality and just the horrible takes that are on Twitter, which lets you're creating of the list.
1:01.5	Can you tell me the story, tell the people what the list is and how you came up with this idea.
1:06.5	So the list is a power ranking of people on Twitter who need their phones taken away based on bad tweets, so think of it like the reason it started was back in December of 2019.
1:24.5	And Kelly and Conway, who was then the White House advisor to the White House to President Trump.
1:30.5	She tweeted something along the lines about Joe Biden and how, you know, like he was fumbling over his words just like he always does.
1:40.5	And it was in the midst of the whistleblower Ukraine saga, the impeachment inquiry had already been opened and Kelly and Conway tweeted a clip of Joe Biden and she's like, we need Ukraine to beat this guy.
1:56.5	And George Conway tweeted her husband and said your boss apparently thought so.
2:03.5	And I was like, well, slow down there, dunking on your wife on the public platform like that.
2:09.5	I got it. I got to take your phone. So I basically just created basically like a five person list of people needed the phone taken away.
2:17.5	Like it was, it always existed like a power ranking like, you know, in sports and the ESPN, they did, they did these power rankings.
2:24.5	And so I had George comment number one, moving up from number two number two was Donald Trump because he always needed his phone taken away.
2:31.5	Then I had like, I think, South Mandel, because I like to climb him around because we worked together at the examiner.
2:38.5	I was on it. I think I was like number four and then I had like Charlie Kirk or something like that.
2:42.5	And I did tagging and I started doing this like, you know, first, I thought it was just going to be a one time post. And then the next day, I was just like, I think I need to do this again.
2:53.5	I just did it. And then the next day, I, when I did it the third time, one of my colleagues at the time, my friend Jason Russell, he's like, at them, you coward.
3:02.5	I was like, all right, fine, I'll, I'll add them to the next time, of course, and I started, I started playing their, their Twitter handles.
3:08.5	And then I expanded initially from five to 10. And then every time I started doing it, and you know, I think, you know, started writing people's names down with the writing hand emoji.
