Louis explains how viral outrage exploits narrow slices of a person the way sexual arousal does, unlike watching a film with your whole self, then Tim criticizes Biden's cavalier rhetoric about flowing arms into Ukraine and the disconnect of young progressives cheering dead Russian soldiers.
- Biden says American arms are flowing into Ukraine as he speaks, said proudly while in Belgium during a European visit.
- Tim argues that sending arms into an active shooting war means more people get killed.
- At minimum, Biden or anyone could say they wish the Ukrainian people well, the way Trump would.
- Tim's position: America can sit this conflict out, make fun of it, and mind its own business.
