Speaker 1 (00:00):
And now, Lyric Capital presents Kenny Webster.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
All right, big news from the people at X, you know, Twitter,
if you still call it that. They just caught a
Chinese bot farm stuffing your comment section on social media
with thousands of anti-data center comments. Basically, what they're saying
is they're trying to get us to argue in America
over whether or not data centers are good or bad,
and it's working, right?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
They need us screaming at each other.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
China knows invasions are expensive. Getting America to declare war
on itself is cheap. But here's the thing about data centers.
You're already using these things. You've been using them for decades. Netflix,
Google Maps, your banking app, that phone in your pocket
is a data center with a speaker. You can hate
the warehouse if you want, but that's sort of like
protesting cows while you have a cheeseburger in your mouth.
(00:48):
Texas is full of data centers, over 300 of them.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
And guess what?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
You're driving past them all the time and you probably
didn't even notice it. Some people will tell you they're
using up too much water. Actually, the new data centers aren't.
They use a closed loop glycol system. It's like a
car radiator, not a frat house keg. You probably also
heard these things are eating up your power bill.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Great.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Let's pass a law that makes the people building the
data centers build their own generators.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Computing is good. We need this.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
It's going to happen whether you want it to or not.
The question is, will the data centers be built in
America or China?
Speaker 3 (01:20):
And do you want your American.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Data processed on a data center in America or in China?
China's brain shouldn't hold America's. Cheaper overseas is a eulogy
with a coupon. donald trump's right data centers create jobs
they create tax revenue for local schools and they can
produce energy if we require the data centers to do
so if your town plays hard to get another town
(01:42):
