In this bit7 moments
  • Tim sees society's institutions as fundamentally fragile, contrary to what most people believe about their stability.
  • When institutions are led by sociopaths, clowns, and people motivated only by money and power with no real checks, this is what manifests.
  • Children are licking toilet seats on planes as a trend, which Tim cites as evidence of profound societal sickness.
  • Kids are coughing on fruit in stores as a joke, another indicator of how disturbed society has become.
  • Tim asks for evidence that society isn't profoundly sick, arguing the toilet-seat licking alone disqualifies any counterargument.
  • Whitney Cummings noted that young people were eating Tide Pods last year for the colors and texture, now they're licking toilets on planes.
  • Tim jokes that he feels bad for coronavirus having to infest a society this disturbed.
