The Terrifying Elon Musk-Lex Fridman Al Apocalypse Conversation that was Deleted... I Clint Russell
"If there was ever a time in my life that a revolution was justified, that was it. You shut down all of the mid and low tier businesses for months. You said you shut down churches in the South. And there wasn't a revolution? I think there was 20% of the population, give or take, that didn't adapt. And those are the people that I look at as kindred spirits."
Clint Russell argued that the COVID lockdowns represented a moment when revolution was justified, noting that approximately 80% of the population quickly adapted to restrictions while only 20% resisted. He described this as evidence that Americans have been conditioned to accept threats to liberty, contrasting the lack of uprising during lockdowns with what he believes the founders would have demanded.
