Knowledge Fight - #305: February 1, 2013
Episode Date: June 5, 2019Today, Dan and Jordan go back to the past to continue their examination of how Alex Jones behaved in the weeks after Sandy Hook. In this installment, all of the narratives that were previously in play... are dropped, as Alex welcomes two guests that inspire him to do a show primarily about post-tribulation rapture and topics he already covered in his "documentary" Endgame.

Andy in Kansas. You're on the air. Thanks for holding
So Alex, I'm a first-time caller. I'm a huge fan. I love your work. I love you. Hey everybody. Welcome back to Knowledge Fight
I'm Dan. I'm Jordan. We're couple dudes like to sit around drink novelty beverages and talk a little bit about Alex Jones
Indeed we are Dan. Jordan. Dan. Jordan. How do you feel about a good saltine?
Are you a saltine cracker guy? Are you are you a
Trisket? I like a trick. Oh, you can see there's a box. Oh, yeah, there is it. I can only see the back
I like a Trisket. You like a Trisket? Yeah, sure. If you if I'm going for a cracker, I'll probably get a Trisket
I absolutely have no use for
Saltine it's a very boring cracker and it reminds me of times that I would go to the
the nurse's office and an elementary school and I was faking sick and
They'd give me saltines and tell me to go back to class. To punch you. Yeah
Saltine to get back to class. You are incredibly dry crackers. Yep. I have that with no water
No, they give me sometimes a little Gatorade to to
Get the electrolytes and hydrate back of course. No, I don't think I've ever experienced a good saltine
Yeah, that's my position on it. I love the way you said that that is that is that was said like you were in a
15th century novel just like I don't think I've ever experienced a good saltine
I like a wheat thin from time to time
How do you feel about the Kebler buttery crisps one?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a cracker. Yeah, and that rounds out
I think those are all the crackers. Yeah, so this is a show where I know about those crackers and none others
And I know a lot about Alex Jones and I only know what you tell me about both correct
So Jordan today, we've got an interesting episode back in the past in 2013
Checking in on what Alex Jones was doing in the aftermath of Sandy Hook, of course
We are on February 1st
2013 today one day only two one one three
Mm-hmm one day only because this is a weird fucking show
Okay, I was so disoriented by it and it was one of the least pleasurable
Experiences I've had preparing an episode just because I was so all over the place like it or Alex was I guess and I was just following
Yeah, it was a situation you're the one doing I felt so untethered from the 2013 period like it doesn't it's
It's anachronistic. Uh-huh feels different like there. It's just it's just this one day
Yeah, it's completely all over the place and we'll get to we'll get to how and why and what happens
Excellent, but before we do I need to give a little bit of a correction from our episode our last episode or Monday episode
We talked about there being reports in Reuters of there being a purge
It done by Kim Jong-un of some government officials in the aftermath of a failed summit with Donald Trump
And as it turns out those were erroneous reports
I apologize to everybody that I got that wrong
But the circumstance was that at the time that we recorded the episode those that was what was being reported in the news and
I operated off that and was discussing what was being reported right now the more important piece of it was I
Wasn't reporting that as to say here is what's happening in North Korea. This is the news
I was discussing it in the context of Alex Jones believes this to be true, right?
And his response to it is cool
Yeah, yeah, or more accurately
I guess not the best way to send a signal to Donald Trump, but hey, it's all right
So the conversation of it being whether it is true or not is important absolutely and I don't like that
You know, we dropped the ball a little bit
But the bigger piece of it is it still stands alone
True whether the story that it's based on is true or not right because
You know the Alex Jones's response to that story under the assumption of it being true was fucked up. Yeah
Yeah, that's that's a little bit like
Look, we we got the reporting wrong on the Temple of Doom
But Alex did still see that guy get his heart ripped out and he was like that's a great idea his take on it was yeah still bad
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and I mean that's kind of one of the reasons why I
Find the present a little bit less gratifying to cover in as much as there's there
There's the possibility or the greater possibility for things like that misunderstandings
Bad reporting that you read and then by the time the episode
Goes up right, you know has been corrected. That's almost an indictment of the 24-hour news cycle entirely. I absolutely think so
Yeah, I agree with you don't don't date at all
But it's one of the definite downsides of it the fluidity of a lot of these things and the speed with which
They they hit you. Yeah, so like I said today
We're in 2013 February 1st and we'll get to you know discussing some of that fucked up at miss
But before we do got to give a shout out to some people who have signed up and are supporting the show. Yay. That's nice

If you're out there listening you're thinking hey, I like this show
I'd like to support what these guys do you can do that by going to our website knowledge fight calm clicking the button
That says support the show we would appreciate please do it would be very kind so
We're on the first and this first clip is only interesting
When you get to the end of the show
Ladies and gentlemen get ready strap yourselves in it is Friday the first day of February
2013
We're gonna be here for the next three hours and then I will return Lord willing this Sunday as I always do four to six p.m. Central
Standard time five to seven p.m. Eastern for the Sunday transmission very standard introduction to the show and Saturday off
No, you always know you always take center at the standard
But the only reason that I even made note of that is this is a four-hour show. Yeah, he says he's doing three hours
He does another hour just on a whim. He had no idea do that. Yeah, you can go into overdrive
Oh, okay. He often goes into overdrive for like five minutes or something
I'm only making note of this to show that like he often does not know what he's going to do or
What his schedule is going to be like when he starts the show, right, right, right?
I'm on air for three hours. Oh, right. I did an extra hour, right?
Yeah, you shouldn't be able to oops do another extra hour. You should prepare there should be
I think it's indicative that the spirit is in him. Yeah, whatever. He's doing. He wants to be doing okay
He extended it because of gotcha. We'll get to okay. Oh boy. Yeah, I don't like that tone of voice
Well, you know in that clip he did say Lord willing. We'll be back on Sunday. Yes
And you could take that as like guys get kind of religious and on this episode. He does get quite religious
Okay, but I should say that he always says Lord willing. I'll be back. Okay. Okay, so that's not an indication of that
That was like occupied, Texas, you know, that's a little bit of black. Yeah
He is big into the rapture on this episode. Okay
Specifically post-tribulation rapture
Which we know he's a big fan of yeah, he doesn't do the pre-trib. No
Yeah, that's bullshit. He believes that and we'll get into this a little bit later in the episode
He believes that the idea of a pre-tribulation rapture was concocted by the globalists
Because they were scared of the Christians ability to take them out. Yeah, that sounds right. And so they needed to
Deat deep fang of the the Christians and so they're like, hey, don't worry about it
You'll be raptured before all the trouble that we're gonna cause. Okay, so don't worry about it
All right, that's the craziest way to look at that and I mean, I don't think there's either pre or post-trib raptures
That's a that's even in the Bible
That's a thing that we're gonna have to think about a little bit, but before we do Alex needs to talk about
How that is the dynamic at play that Christians used to be so
Against tyranny, but now they don't care because of pre-trib rapture. That sounds why do Christians submit to tyranny today?
Why did Christians found America by saying no King but King Jesus King George is a tyrant they didn't and led that rebellion
But today, why do they submit and the biggest issue is they teach a pre-tribulation rapture the biggest issue
So we're gonna examine that and again, even if you're not a Christian
This is an important anthropology important sociology important psychology
So if you've been listening along to these 2013 episodes in the aftermath of Sandy Hook, this is incongruous
This this focus on pre and post-trib rapture is very much like what is happening
He did a fucking extended gold commercial at the end of the previous day's episode
Yeah, yeah yelling about like grunting park security guards
And being in hot springs, you know, yeah, that was the day before this well the moment
Park Ranger grunts at you. You got to start thinking about the end times
I think that makes perfect sense, you know first thing that happens
Then the very next thought the very next day is just like this shit is oh, I don't know what's gonna happen next
But I hope there's a rapture. It's just it's very weird
It's very incongruous from a narrative perspective like there is this came out of left field to me
This is not at all what I expected of course not so I also I should say I've been hearing Alex say that no king
But King Jesus thing a bit in these 2013 episodes
Yeah, but for a while
I just kind of assumed that it was some kind of phrasing and paraphrasing of scripture that I don't remember
So I just decided to leave it alone
But for some reason at this time
I don't know why it hit my ears a little bit differently and maybe it's because of that jarring shift from what he was doing
The previous days this this religiosity right, right, that's why it hit me differently
So I decided to see if I could trace down where that phrase came from and what we can learn about Alex's beliefs from his repeated
Use of it to attack Obama. I'm gonna guess not the Bible
Uh
As it turns out there's something that Alex is clearly referencing here as the story goes John Adams and John Hancock were meeting at the home of
Reverend Jonas Clark on the night of April 18th
1775 that fucking guy Clark was a pastor and said to be involved in the local militias as the men gathered Paul revere arrived and
Warned that the Brits were coming so then when major British major pitcairn showed up
He demanded that the men lay down their arms to which the Patriots were said to have replied quote
We recognize no sovereign, but God and no king, but Jesus
There's a lot of problems with this. Oh
Just from a historical like like what well for one neither John Adams nor John Hancock were present when pitcairn arrived
historically
Second it was Samuel Adams who attended the meeting at Clark's house not John Adams Brewer and a Patriot third
Pitcairn's very detailed account of the night in question April 18th 1775 doesn't include any of this
You can't trust him though. He's a Brit, but it does include plenty of other dialogues
So one would assume that this would be mentioned had it have happened
It's unclear if this framing of the quote in this fashion actually exists anywhere prior to a speech that John Ashcroft gave at the noted
Evangelical Christian school Bob Jones University in which he said quote a slogan of the American Revolution
Which was so distressing to the emissaries of the king that it was found in correspondences sent back to England was the line
We have no king, but Jesus tax collectors came asking for that which belonged to the king and colonists frequently said we have no king
But Jesus
John Ashcroft was George W. Bush's attorney general
So it'd be certainly weird if that was where Alex was taking his quote from seeing as he fucking hates
George double George W. Bush and all things related to him. So that's weird
Yeah, it turns out he's a he's cool with that one though
It's it is a pretty good turn of phrase and it sounds like a great legend
Well, it's far more likely that Alex is getting this from a more succinct version of the story of that night April 18th
1775 that was told by Charles a Jennings
The stuff about King George is even in Jennings version of the story
The idea would be we don't recognize him as a sovereign almost everything
They matches up with Alex's story
Matches up also with Charles a Jennings
Okay, Jennings was a leader in the Christian identity movement, which was a religious group
That was very popular among the extreme right in the 1980s. I was about I was just waiting for your first sentence to be Jennings was a Nazi
Right around that, you know, he was popular with this
The world that Alex probably would have been in right around the time that he was coming of age sounds right
From their earliest days among their other beliefs Christian identity members called for the liquidation of the UN
They didn't believe in paying taxes and argued that the sheriff was the highest constitutional authority in the land
I did I just I'm so glad those ideas were stamped out all the way back then
There's a heavy heavy overlap with Alex's beliefs to a point where I would be very unlikely to call it a coincidence
This is important because it does appear that Charles Jennings is the first person to articulate the fabricated story where the quote Alex is
Repeatedly saying comes from this this thing
Seems to be parroting and beyond just being a ray-wing Christian figure Jennings is also a huge racist pile of shit
From an article in the St. Louis Post Dispatch from March 5th
2000 about Charles Jennings and a Christian identity conference being held in Branson, Missouri
Quote children sat with their parents as speaker Charles a Jennings called himself a quote strong racist and said he was pleased that quote the
quality of our races in this room
One audience member who applauded Jennings speech was Tom Robb the grand dragon of the Knights of the Clue-Clux Klan
If Alex is getting his beliefs about the American Revolution from preachers who were leaders in the Christian identity movement
It implies a very foundational problem with his beliefs namely that he believes white supremacist propaganda to be actual history
I suspect that's what Alex generally means when he says lower
So so do they mean it like I'm a strong racist like in the context of like the strong
Connected force between neutrons and protons and then the weak. I think it just means emphatically
Oh, okay. Yeah, okay
So this this idea is very interesting to me the idea that Alex believes this
Articulation of a story that absolutely didn't happen historically, but was used fairly propaganda
Wise yeah, yeah, that's an extremist right-wing communities
So in this next clip remember on our last episode from the 2019 period Alex and Robert Barnes
We're talking about how they're psychic. Yes
Alex has long felt this way and I'm telling you the globalist believe in God and
They believe in spiritual forces. I mean, how do you know when somebody's looking at you?
You can be walking to the woods and the same ship on a thousand acres
How do you do this?
Or on my family's property needs taxes and repeatedly I know when somebody's looking at me and I'm always right you're never right I
I'm amazed by that myself
Every it seems like every time we go back and forth from the present. There's a
Completely identical thing. It's very weird how there seems to be like constants. Yeah, like just like there's some little
Relic between yeah, yeah, the wheel of time is unending. I don't understand how that works
I was waiting for him to bring up a mountain lion and then I was gonna jump out my window
I totally thought he was gonna bring up that I was waiting for him to bring up if you brought up a mountain lion
I'd be like this is a fucking simulation
So in this next clip we get to hear about some of Alex's literary loves hopefully I think you'll enjoy this
Okay, there's no way I couldn't cut this clip out. I
Absolutely hate fear
Okay, I
Desirous despise it fear is the mind killer does kill your intellect. It is the mind killer quote a great writer and I'd say philosopher
Frank Herbert here is the mind killer here is the little death little petite more. Yes, that's the orgasm
Hey from a philosophical standpoint he loves
Frank Herbert anytime Dune comes up. Hey, who does it? We're sponsored by
Always gotta point out whatever Alex brings up Frank Herbert and do yeah
Amazing novels leave the Brian Herbert sequels alone fair enough. Let them go fair enough
So this clip in the same way that that last one for you as a Dune lover
That really you know that was for you. Thank you. This one is for me
Here's what I want to explain to you and we covered a lot in my film
It's been out six years in-game blueprint for global enslavement
Available on DVD at info wars.com but in higher quality is or in prison planet TV
But it's free on YouTube folks, but don't have it be pearls before swine. Okay, go watch it. It has an online bibliography
What is the game dot com? What is the end game dot com so you can double check every every 30 seconds
On the timecode with a bibliography a lot of things don't have the UN says they want to exterminate at least 80% of the public
Where they state it's it's a US government policy the British Royal Commission on population anything we quote in the film
It's right there. Even if it's George Herbert Walker Bush Coleman for world government New World Order
Everybody knows he did that and we show the state of the Union. We still give the date where they said it and where we got it
The date and Congress of the United States
State of the Union I
Mean everything documented. It's like an online film book online film book. It is not
I love the idea that he's fucking bragging about that bibliography
He could not be bragging about the bibliography
It makes me wonder if he's not aware of how poorly done it is like if he just gave like he doesn't know
He just assumes it's good and they just turned in shitty homework. Yeah, he wasn't paying attention
Yeah, that sounds really plausible years on now
He's just never checked in and just assumes it. Yeah, they I told Joe Biggs to go do it
He did it or whatever
I told Rob do fucking get the bibliography together and because Rob do can't right with a lot of these things
It's just like and you don't want to have to go back to Alex and be like hey
This is true
Because these quotes are made up
Hey Alex in the bibliography, I can't just put a meme. Yeah
Can't put something you found on a Patriot message board years ago
How many direct quotes were made up in that? I can't even remember. I think it was almost like eight of
12 or something like that might be high. It was a high batting average
It was it was a large percentage of them, but I don't know what the gross number was although I do on our wiki
I do have a running tally of his just completely made up quotes
So it's it's there to be found. I love it. Um, so yeah, I just always always love it when he brings up that bibliography
It's terrifyingly plausible that he just has no idea. Yeah, I consider that. Yeah, he has terrible employees
Yeah, so I think that if he delegates anything he probably assumes it's done and it's done terribly, right?
So I think there's probably endemic in his operation. Yeah, and it's almost a feature not a bug. Yeah. Yeah, it's protective
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so Alex in this next clip talks about Bill Gates. He gave a speech at a Ted talk and
I and you might you might start to notice a little bit of a trend
At the beginning of this Alex was getting a little bit religious. Yeah, he's talking about, you know, no God
But King God, yeah, King God
And then he started he got into the the bibliography for endgame and he starts
Weaving kind of a lot of endgame-ish topics in here and now he's getting into technology
Well, no because this is this is Bill Gates talking about extermination
Oh
Bill Gates gave a turn up. He gave a Ted talk that Alex is going to misrepresent naturally next clip where he discusses
Alex thinks he's talking about destroying all humans and
Right, we'll discuss it on the other end of this like bender
And they go to Ted TV events and they have you know, the the intelligentsia there the technocrats there the mid-level technocrats
And they say yeah, we're gonna reduce this number and show an equation of humans
With carbon dioxide and show it going to zero which means zero humans everybody laughs and
And Bill Gates laughs see it's all a laugh because that's gang sign. It's like they speak another language
It's an equation very simple equation, but they know people watching that. How are they even gonna know an equation?
They don't know what the three branches of government are they show an equation that they're going to kill us and actually says
We've got to get this number down to zero
Using vaccines to lower their population. He even says it shows the equation and then they all laugh
Yeah
It's funny to them see because they're not really trying to save the planet
That's how they get the low-level people into this. They're a bunch of inbred psychopaths sadist up top
And you read the 1949 royal commission on population
That's the blueprint of all the modern stuff we followed earlick the UN
21 UNESCO all of it so
For a long time
I thought that what Alex was doing there because I've heard that sort of thing. Oh, yeah, they're all laughing at yeah
Yeah, I thought that Alex was misrepresenting
Bill Gates his speech like in a way that like Bill Gates made a dumb joke and Alex said that he was being serious
Like I thought that Bill Gates the way I remembered it was that Bill Gates had made a joke about that equation
And then like this number
Population could be zero and that would slide right right right a dumb joke
But I went back and rewatched that Ted talk and honestly this isn't even a joke
It's just the audience laughing at a poorly set up slide show. That's all that's going on
Oh, they were laughing at him not with him at him at slide show
Okay, so Bill Gates introduces his premise that in order to stop the disaster
Disasterous effects of climate change. We need to get carbon emissions down to as close to zero as we can
He then brings up his equation where carbon emissions equals people times number of services times efficiency of services
times CO2 produced per unit of energy
After this equation he goes into each variable one by one and says that for the equation to equal zero
One of the variables is going to have to get pretty close to zero
In the meantime the slide show has moved on to his slide for the variable of people
So it shows a bunch of people on the screen
Oh, so everybody is saying that one of the variables has to get down to zero the next one is people and everybody's like
Yeah, they're seeing that and there's a visual joke, but it doesn't appear that Bill Gates even realizes the slide has changed
Or if he does he doesn't seem to understand why people are laughing. Yeah, that actually does that sounds right on both counts
I believe that he does not understand why people laugh. Yeah, he explicitly says that the population is going up
And then if we provide appropriate health care, we can slow the rate of that rise a little bit
But he's definitely not saying that this variable should go down to zero or even go down a lot
His entire argument is about how the efficiency and the CO2 per unit of energy are the two variables where we actually have a chance of
Making a difference this speech is very clear if you listen to all of it that it has nothing to do with calling the population with
Vaccines or any of that bullshit has everything to do with creating
I mean if you look at the equation, you can't really argue with it
Yeah, I mean like the people time services times efficiency times CO2 per unit like that does make sense that if you want
What all those add up to to be close to zero right one of those things needs to be close to zero or we need to drop all of them
Right or they will all be dropped for us right and it and it does make and if everything is dropped for us
Then the P is going down. Yeah, that one's gonna be the one that's closest to zero if you resist changing the other
Variables that you may have a possibility of being able to change nature will change it for you
So in many ways Bill Gates giving that speeches explicitly against depopulation. Yeah, which is an irony. Yes. Yeah
Yeah, that is fun. Yeah, the reality of the
situation is the result of the reality of Alex Jones stopping
Us from changing anything in that equation by creating propaganda for it
It is so in a certain sense Alex is bringing about the very apocalypse that he is he's a depopulation agent. Yeah. Yeah
Hmm. So also at the end there. He brings up the 1949 Royal Commission on Population
Yeah, I am very excited to announce something to you. Okay, and that is that I figured out how Alex Jones knows the word actuaries
All the time yeah in a context that don't appear to really make a ton of sense
Yeah, and it's because that report the 1949 report of the Royal Commission on Population was conducted by an actuary
Ah, there we are the 1949 result was the result of the report was the result of a five-year study on population
There's a concern about confirming the conventional
Accepted conclusion that 2.33 repeating two and a third children were required for each couple to maintain a stable population
And this was one of the many primary questions that the Commission set out to answer
What they found more or less boiled down to it being that the quote the size of the family has remained
comparatively stable for 20 years at about 2.2 children per married couple and that this rate was
6% deficient for population replacement the report calls itself out however for not being able to predict what trends might be seen in the
future from lowering ages of marriages which was a trend that it was beginning to happen around this time as well as a
Decreased infant mortality rate so that 6% deficient thing in terms of replacement
That might not even been accurate even by their own estimate an
Analysis of the report which was done two years after its release mirrors this concern and explicitly lays out how two years more data has made the
1949 effort effectively outdated the analysis goes on to say quote
It will of course be argued that two years from now any new projections will be equally out of date
That is no doubt true enough, but skepticism should not be allowed to stifle all Korea curiosity
So there's there's a built-in thing even of these reports that is like there's trends that are happening
That make this an incomplete picture. Yeah, but it's worth doing anyway
To know if our future analyses mean anything, right?
Let's see how wrong we are and why now and then later on we'll analyze that and we won't do that stuff
Yeah, one of the chief findings of the report was that fertility rates decreasing at whatever rates
They were decreasing wasn't the result of people being less fertile
It was the result of people having a choice about having kids for the first time in pretty much ever
Though oral contraception would not be approved by the FPA until 1961 by
1946 family planning centers had set up clinics and were advising people in Britain about contraception techniques
On one level I suspect Alex probably only knows about this report at all because it was one of the first in Britain to recommend the birth control
Should be made available through health services, which drew the severe ire of the religious community surprise in what in an hour
They're great in an article in the Catholic Herald
It was decried that quote there is not a spark of religion about it
It is purely pagan and a dreadful example of the way in which the mind of England has gone pagan if we give women an inch
They will take over our lives
Make sure every decision they have is under our control
Yeah, the more conservative forces in British society went out of their way to attack this report primarily for that reason
It stands to reason given that this is a ground-breaking report in terms of openly discussing family planning that maybe that's what all Alex is responding to I
Sincerely wish that I could say with certainty what Alex is talking about when he talks about the 1949 Royal Commission on Population
But it's pretty hard to find context clues
He just says this report is at the root of everything within
Mysteriously if you search info wars and prison planet the entire websites if you search them for any sort of variation of the words
1949 Royal Commission report and population
Literally nothing comes up that can't be real
They have had these websites forever and they have never saw fit to write
What is the point of completing about this report? That's crazy. Yeah, it's weird
I wonder if Alex maybe just like fell down drunk on
Front of a library and somebody was walking out with that commission and somehow it's just seared on the back of his brain
And so that's just what he referenced
I strongly suspect that what it is is he's heard other people in these
Patriot right-wing communities complain about it. Yeah, maybe on message boards and and
Newsletters that he would read
These paranoid John Birch society adjacent
Yeah, newsletters that would go out in the early days in the pre-internet days even they would make reference to it or W
Cleon Scousen might have brought it up and one of his writings that Alex loves
Well, yeah, but the Scousen's main problem was with the font
It was Wingdings, which is a mistake
Very clear that was a mistake. They wish they could go back in time
But so I think that it's possible that he's heard about it second hand from somebody else who was pissed off about it because of the birth control
Advocacy in it and the cycle of stupidity
Right and the cats and the cradle and the silver spoon and we go
So if you want to talk about it from a perspective of like I'm against this because it advocated for
People being allowed contraception, right great do that, but yeah recognize we're going to treat you like that
Yeah, we're going to treat you like that's your argument
I think he just doesn't want people to know that that's his argument. It seems like that's the only thing it could possibly be
Yeah, it's very confusing to me. I went down this road and I can't quite figure out what he's
What he means and I just think he's full of shit. I I do strongly suspect that it is just about contraception
Yeah, I think that he is either
Like of his own volition or based on something he read somewhere else
It all traces back to just the
Resistance to the idea of the freedom that is offered by having a choice in giving birth. Yeah
but Alex is talking here about
This is this is wild to me because he's still sort of talking
About
He's talking about the globalists, of course, right? Well, yes
This is directly contradictory to something he generally says about globalists
Plus the only wealth you have is being really poor is children. By the way, it is the real wealth
But the point is is that the globalists all know they've all got five six seven eight nine ten kids
They all know what he's don't they have zero kids and they eat they eat
They said that they can't have kids
He said that they want to destroy the world and you can tell because they don't have children, right?
Well, that was that was in 20 he says that now in 2019 in 2013 the globalists all had five or six kids
It's just been because they've been eating so many of them
You know you run out of adrenaline I guess you start looking down and all of a sudden you don't have any kids
Don't get high on your own supply. Exactly
So yeah, I don't know a lot of this stuff though is and and I didn't cut out a lot of clips that would have just been us
Going back over endgame stuff. Yeah. Yeah, it was just a ton of stuff
That's like a lot of this feels like he just watched endgame last night and it was like
I could see him
Rubbing one out to his own movie right before he goes to bed brain brain rub out gonna be honest
Yeah, and so we had this kind of religious trend going on and then you also had this endgame trend
And I think it comes together in this next clip
It's very strange to me when I told you at the beginning this episode that like I felt very untethered
It's because of this vibe. I think that this clip really well embodies
The that's sort of what he's bringing to the table and it made me deeply unsettled
You're not let in to the club
Unless you're for this that's why Pionka remember this famously five years ago gave a speech to the Texas Academy of Sciences
He got their highest award. He's gotten global awards into Europe
And he said I look forward to the airborne Ebola being released 90% of his dying including my family
It's sad, but it's for the better and there was a standing three-minute
Ovation photos were taken newspapers reported with crying
Oh
Even my family's gonna die and everyone was so moved by it
He was yes all the top Texas Academy of Sciences people I talked to the reporters that were there
They were taking photos and covered it and they estimated
90% stood in the ovation and it went on for three minutes as he projected on the PowerPoint a giant screen of
pile of
red skulls
Red skulls. We actually went and did a Google search later of that photo Marble Rwandan pile of skulls
You get to the image search giant red pile of skulls and they're in their church. They're in their church standing ovation
Standing ovation
standing ovation
It's their church. It's their time to cry. It's their time to have a sacrament
It's their time to take the blood of Satan not the blood of Jesus. It's their time to take communion. It's their time
It's their time. It's their time their time
So oh, yeah, I was very close to leaving that clip out of this episode
And just kind of trying to find the new points to touch on because we talked about Eric Pianco when Alex brought him up in endgame
So we discussed him a little bit
But ultimately I felt that that clip really represented this energy that Alex has on this show and it's super weird
His manner is entirely different than previous episodes in 2013 that we've been going over
He has the air of a preacher to him more than he normally does the repetition of it's their time
Yeah, the other repetition at the end of that clip. Yeah, Baptist their church. Yeah, yeah, very much like an evangelical
Pastor right. It's made me feel very unsettled
Simultaneously, he's doing a shitload of rehashing endgame narratives as if like we've already said he watched at the night before and was reminded
What he was supposed to be doing. I'm so great. Well, it just reminds me like oh, this is what I meant to do
And I got distracted five years ago. Oh, yeah, shit
Sorry guys. Let me get back on. All right. My bad. My bad. Obama came along and I got kind of what was this?
Sandy Hook what was this whole Sandy Hook thing? Let's move on. It's 2013 yet
He's doing content straight out of 2008 literally the day before this episode
He was telling fake stories about grunting park rangers and helping Ted Anderson talk shit about other gold sellers
And yet here he is today doing a preacher impression literally nothing feels right about this episode and it makes me feel really fucked up
I don't know what to do with it and we'll see how it ends up playing out
But since we took the time to take this clip
And discuss it I feel it's my obligation to go a little deeper into how Alex is completely lying about dr. Eric Pianca
Pianca is one of Alex's favorite go-to examples of members of the intelligentsia who are openly in favor of depopulation and the globalist plan
interestingly in pretty much all the time of listening to Alex's show the only thing he ever brings up about Pianca is this one speech
Where people gave him a standing ovation for rooting for airborne Ebola? Yeah
Interestingly when you take a closer look at what Alex is referencing it becomes clear that Alex just saw a headline about Pianca on the drudge report in
2006 and he's been riffing on it ever since
Back in April 2006 Eric Pianca was giving a speech at the Texas Academy of Sciences
It was a speech that he delivered many times before called the vanishing book of life
Dr. Pianca is an evolutionary ecologist by trade and as such the speech was about the catastrophe that was looming in the ecosystem
A catastrophe that we have willed into existence through inaction
Does he write a new speech every year because you can't really tour on the same hour?
Over and over and over again your fans are gonna. I'm not entirely sure how long he'd been doing these bits
But I know that he had been giving the speech before this without incident
All right, but on that April day there happened to be an asshole in the crowd
Unless asshole was named forest mims of course an asshole is named forest man. He didn't have a chance
He's not have a chance. He's not not to be confused with the rapper mims who did that song. This is why I'm hot poor bastard
Yeah, he was named forest mims so forest mims is an amateur scientist and a skeptic of climate change
And thus I am comfortable saying he's not a scientist
Of course that doesn't stop him from being a professor of earth sciences at the University of Nations in Kona, Hawaii
That might mean something but unfortunately the University of Nations is an unaccredited Christian college whose CFO
Pablo Rivera was sentenced to a prison last year for embezzling
$3.1 million from the school
He created fake invoices to steal the money and raise student fees to make up the money that the for what the school was spending
One of the things he allegedly bought with the money was a gold mine in Sierra Leone
So that dude was real cool. Wow. Wow. That's
That's that's like ticking all of the all of the boxes of a evil evangelical dude
Just like boom boom boom gold mine in Sierra Leone. Of course. I'm gonna buy that
I've already reached the state of Monster hood where there's no recourse for me in hell
Well, there's actually one box left to check off and that is that the DOJ also charged him with obstruction of justice for attempting to hide
diamonds
Were they his diamonds at least well, you bought them with the money you stole from the school, so
No, I don't know possession nine-tenths of the law. Sure. Anyway, that's the school that this guy teaches at
Yeah, that's your CFO. He's so he's a skeptic. Their house is not in order is what I would say
It's kind of amazing that the guys who describe themselves as skeptics are the ones most often taken in by these kind of
Climate change skeptic. Exactly the actual like general. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah in 1988
Mims alleged that the Scientific American wouldn't hire him as an editor because of his creationist views
This in combination with his disbelief in climate change brings into sharp focus
Why he did what he did to dr. Eric Pionka and it's an expression of Mims being an asshole
Forest Mims was there for the speech and he took it upon himself to write an article on his website
That was covered by the local paper the Seguin Gazette Enterprise. I believe it was just him
I would say in prose
Crying and shitting his pants like a baby. No, no, I don't think they had art on the article. Okay, this article the local paper
Whitewashing a sensationalized report of Pionka speech was then picked up by the drudge report and immediately a right-wing attack commenced
But then as people started to analyze the quotes provided to the Gazette Enterprise and compared them to a transcript of Pionka speech
Things didn't add up the quotes were taken entirely out of context and often from different parts of the speech
People who were there came forward and called Mims assessment a quote dishonest
mischaracterization and said quote dr. Pionka in no way advocated billions of deaths from Ebola or said anything that would lead a
Reasonable person to think he was doing so. I've read the speech and I 100% concur with this
I find it very hard to believe that someone could reach the conclusions that Mims did without doing so intentionally
Oh good. Well, that's settled and I assumed that the right wing would never ever use that as an attack
Oh, you're not giving me a smile on that. No, that doesn't sound good
I think if you look at the available information it becomes pretty clear that Mims was likely offended by Pionka's tone
And how he doesn't care for creationist and climate denial positions in his speech Pionka said quote the biggest enemy
We face is anthropocentrism
This this is a common human attitude that everything on earth was put there for our use to be used any way
We want which is a direct opposition to the Bible if taken literally which we know creationists generally do it seems
It behooves them to if they don't mm-hmm as Pionka points out in a response to the fake controversy
Mims is a fellow of the Discovery Institute, which exists specifically to quote make intelligent design the dominant perspective in science
One way you can work toward that goal is to smear a prominent evolutionary ecologist as an advocate of human extermination
In the fallout Pionka received tons of death threats and someone even reported him to homeland security as a bioterrorist
This harassment campaign got seriously out of hand and when you take a closer look
It's absolutely based on a willful misrepresentation of his speech
The closest thing that you can come to him saying something that is close to this is in the quote
He in the speech
He does say something along the lines of the world will be better off if there were 10 to 20 percent of us
Yeah, after whatever bottleneck right right, which isn't to say that he wishes that upon people or that he wants the world to die
Just that the natural ecological systems will will reboot better. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
So I don't know. I think anything is just a willful mischaracterization
I think it's a dirty shame and this is the only thing that Alex knows is the smear against this guy
The right wing is so good at that
They're so good at taking some small dumb innocuous lie from some idiot in the middle of fuck nowhere and
Turning it into the fucking Obama's tan suit. Like how do you how are they so good?
There is a UT professor. No, no, no not him the forest pimps, dude
Oh, yeah, but I mean he was also like because it is he he's someone who's actually kind of interesting because it appears that he does
Know a good bit and his self-taught in like electrical engineering and electrical sciences. Cool
Yeah, and so stay away from actual or from other sciences
No, I agree
But because of that he had a position within the Texas Academy of Sciences like okay, you know
So he was there in some auspices that are appropriate, right?
It's it's one of those interesting things like he's he got out of his lane and his creationist
Climate-denialy positions. I think led him to take great offense, right?
It's like a veterinarian selling pills and we all know that that would never happen, right? That's an interesting
Also, one other thing that's really important to remember is that Alex is completely lying about researching the slide show in that
Transcript of his speech that I mentioned
Pianca includes his graphics the slide that Alex is talking about
But he said there are a bunch of Rwandan skulls. It's six cartoon skulls next to a cartoon of Skeletor
It's in a part of the speech where he's talking about trying to find images to go along with his speech
And it's clearly a joke Alex would know that if he looked into it at all
But he would know exactly what he knows if he'd only read the account from mims that was reposted on Drudge
Which says quote Pianca then displayed a slide show with rows of human skulls
One of which had red lights flashing from its eye sockets that one with red lights flashing was
Skeletor from He-Man
That is the most annoying
Thing that I have heard since our last goddamn episode Dan
It's crazy. You're your whole goal now is just to vex me with dumb reality. I'm not stupid
I'm not trying to vex you. I'm trying to highlight
I'm trying to highlight these instances where Alex is like we looked into it
We searched the image that he used in its Rwandan skulls like if you searched for the images you would have found He-Man
Yeah, that's the thing it turns out to be Skeletor this fucking idiot wrote that it was it was a row of human skulls and with one
That was no I get what he's writing. Yeah, I get what he's doing. He's that's bullshit. He's misrepresenting it
But it is a fair description
Yeah, devoid of He-Man. Yeah, I get it. I get it. It's on it's unfair
But technically accurate it was a row of human skulls and what I'd like that's bullshit
That's bullshit, but one of them can't be Skeletor if you want me to take you serious lying by omission
Yeah, I'm glad he did because it's so highlights how little work Alex does about anything
Yeah, like if you want to check into what are these human skulls like well?
Yeah, that makes it very very easy to point out lies about his process
Yeah, it's lies about the work that he does
Because he needs to
so we get off this and and like I said that
That religious vibe that Preachery vibe. Yeah is going through and the end game content is going through
We're under the tent. I don't know why entirely
But Alex gets to a news story
So it's not from 2008
This one's more current although you're making him hold up newspapers now in all of these investigations
Yeah, just to confirm when the date is this one's this one's current, but it is it feels the same as ever
To a veteran who's involved running a program raising money for other veterans
One big awards in the community people are like he's a veteran. He wins awards. Why is the sheriff's department?
Why are why is the grand jury throwing the book at him?
You're the enemy
You're a robot that's now to be decommissioned you've gone out and fought for the new world order and shot up with the deadly vaccines
And they're not killing you fast enough the DU isn't killing you fast enough. You're supposed to come back here
Won't you come back or go to prison you're the number one enemy you're what homeland security is targeting
I've got all these articles where vets are getting targeted. It's like it's weird. They're pulling vets over the cops
Just say they're pulling me over for no reason they've got your license plate scanned. You're in a database
It's telling them in many of these major cities to pull you over
See now, it's not just warrants or priors with these scanners. It's now vet
That's a vet pull him over and they know when they're vets they walk over so you're a vet got back from Iraq last year get out of the car
So he's talking about a specific veteran who got arrested
He's saying for a possession of a weapon
And then generalizing it to like they are going to pull over anyone who's a vet they're coming after all of you right
Just a desperate plea just to be like you join us get on our side. Yeah, they all hate you
They want to jam you up and you know what we're gonna do
We're gonna find all of the homeless veterans because we care so much about veterans and we will help them
Wait, what are you saying? Oh, no, no, no, you care about veterans, right? That's what gotta go to commercial
Oh, okay shit
So the story that he's talking about though the specific case is about a guy named Nathan Haddad
Veteran who was arrested after he was found to be in possession of illegal weapons accessories in
Specific he had 30 round magazines for an AR 15 and AR 7 which is really illegal in New York as it turns out
This may not have been a case of overzealous cops just pulling over any vet
They can find a jamming them up. It was likely the result of a sting operation
One of the things that makes me think that is that the in the article about his arrest
It clearly states that he was parked during the arrest
It doesn't seem like how you would describe someone at a checkpoint
Also, the article says that he was parked because he had quote
Advertised the magazines for sale on Craigslist and was waiting to meet a potential buyer
Okay, so you're you're thinking the cops may have found that Craigslist. Yeah, maybe you think that would be a hunch
All right, so that is
Really bad planning whenever you're trying to commit a an illegal sale of goods
Mm-hmm. You don't want to you don't want to advertise it a lot of people do that on Craigslist. That's fair
Never mind. This is a basic piece of primary reporting that all the conservative press seem to gloss over
They all say that he was arrested for possessing the magazines which he could have been but he wasn't he was arrested for trying to sell them
Which they don't want to bring up because it hurts their basic argument of these magazines are safe and good in the hands
Of an upstanding veteran right because who knows who he was trying to sell them to yeah
They're very good in the hands of a veteran. They're really bad the moment he hands them over in exchange for money
So like they these magazines are specifically for military use only so obviously sneakily traffic trafficking in them isn't a good thing
Either way, it doesn't matter because Haddad just got a slap on the wrist with a conditional discharge
He had to pay a $200 fine but considering that he became a cause celeb of the right-wing militia Patriot world
He raised over $50,000 in online campaigns. It's very likely. He made a profit off the whole thing
He only had to pay a $200 fine for selling items
Destined for mass murder. They're not necessarily destined for mass murder, but potentially right
I don't know that yeah, that's that's all I could find in the the article about the disposition of the case
I don't know entirely if you like reoffended because that conditional discharge is basically like a
Suspended sentence kind of thing where it's like if you get arrested again, we can recharge you
Okay, but if you stay clean for a certain amount of time then you just have this fine cool, and I don't know I
Don't know how I feel about it. I think it's probably not maybe a little bit of a harsher penalty, but whatever
Yeah, I don't know. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna relitigate
Local cases from 2013. I think it's time. We do but I can if we're not going to Dan who will someone else
Okay, fair Alex. Well, okay. I can definitely say that what Alex is doing with it is wrong
I don't I don't know about the courts. Who cares? Yeah, so Alex does have a guest
Okay, so he actually has two and I've been sort of lying to you when I listen to this episode
Alex's vibe of the religiosity and endgame stuff really confused me
And as the show went on it started to make sense
This first guest makes fairly clear why he's endgame in it
Why he's getting back to endgame because this guest is somebody who is an expert in endgame type
Narratives the Russo brothers. No her sevenths. No, her name is
Rosa Corey and she wrote a book called behind the green mask agenda 21
She's an agenda 21 get her get her on the show now
Uh-huh, so she's on and they just talk about agenda 21 and how it's gonna be. It's a globalist takeover plan
It is it's a lot of vague riffing
And so I I isolated this clip because I think it's one of the most specific things that
Corey says and I think if you listen to this
You can see what they're trying to attack when they attack
Accu like they make accusations of agenda 21
Do you need to show up and occupy those government meetings and talk about agenda 21 sustainable development?
Let them know that you know what it is those three pillars of agenda 21 are economy
Ecology and social equity and when you see that together
You want to break that down and you want to advise your elected officials that you are going to take them out
If they don't drop this so the argument is essentially like
This so agenda 21 is the UN and then there's all these local bodies that are under the auspices
Doing the bidding of the UN why not pretending to be local forces
But the UN's plan is ecology economy and social equity
I think they might not like the social equity part, but anytime you see a local body that is working and those
Things are involved ecology economy and equity any time you have a local thing
Aha agenda 21 is afoot. Yeah, and so you have to fight back against anything that involves the intersection of
Economy ecology and social equity and if you do that, what are you doing?
Not good stuff. No, no, okay, so let's try and find a situation
Automatic way to attack things that you're against all right
I propose to this council that we limit the ability of coca-cola to put pollution into
Our rivers drinking water. Yeah. Yeah. We don't want that anymore. Well, that's an intersection. We have any economy ecology and equity
Oh, okay. Well, then I guess we can't do it cuz I don't know what
That's a perfect way to encapsulate it. That's that is the utility of this sort of argument
Uh-huh, and that's what she's bringing to the table. So he's so she's great
He spent Alex spends a lot of time on this episode talking shit about agenda 21 with this guest Rosa Corey
She's of a group called the Democrats against you and agenda 21 for a Democrat
She seems to hang out with a lot of right-wing dumb-dumbs seeing as a bulk of her media appearances that I can find her on
Alex's show hanging out with Glenn Beck and of course appearing on the overtly white nationalist show right red ice radio
There are particular complaints about agenda 21 Alex's and Rosa's are pretty boring
So instead of listening to them ramble about how it's the government's plan to take over everybody
I want to tell you a little bit about what you need to know about agenda 21
First things first we've discussed this a matter of a number of times in the past
But agenda 21 it was an entirely non binding plan that was the result of a conference called the Earth Summit held in Rio
Digenero between June 3rd and 14th
1992 would have been funnier if they held it on the moon. It would have yeah, certainly
Agreed
Implementation of all or just parts of the suggested sustainability measures discussed in the reporter entirely up to the each
Individual UN member state. There's no expectation the countries have to do anything based on this report
That is a crucially important thing to understand about this document
And another thing that's crucially important is it was never a secret. It was made public during its 1992 conference, right?
Insecretly though in December 1991
The Soviet Union dissolved and thus the state of affairs in the world were markedly different heading into 1992
The Cold War had ended and there was a sense of hope surrounding the future being characterized by global cooperation those poor dumb bastards
Simultaneously the world was still dealing with the fallout from the energy crises of the 1970s
Which illustrated clearly that we had a serious problem with energy consumption and that problem was going to be made worse if developing
Parts of the world followed the same strategies that just as an example the United States had
The sense was that it would be unacceptable to say something like these countries aren't allowed to develop or create industries of their own
But at the same time a new awareness existed that if they did it with the same technologies that we used
The pollution and overall damage to the environment would be a catastrophe. Nope. Obama said that Africans can't have fridges
This was not an issue that could be solved with unilateral decision-making. It required everyone working together a
Balance of interests was needed and sustainable development became a topic of a lot of interest in the late 80s and early 90s
Alternatives to fossil fuels became more widely considered and recycling got a nice push in the public consciousness
It's in this setting that the earth summit was held an agenda 21 was written
It's just a plan that the UN was encouraging smaller governmental bodies to use to help them create their own
Sustainability plans there were suggestions and little bits of help
Alex and his ilk only think of this is some kind of evil satanic thing because it treats private property rights as something that needs to be
balanced with environmental issues rural development issues and the concerns of indigenous peoples as opposed to how Alex sees property rights
As the most important thing other than guns. This is one of the big reasons
That Alex has this problem people who have property sure do seem to like it. Yeah, it's a it's I
You know since I've never had property. I'm always interested to know what I would be like if I did like I don't even own more than
I don't even own two pairs of shoes. I don't have property. No, that's you're not even getting into the shoe rights
Yeah, yeah, I should get some more shoes. So this concern about the sort of
secondary nature or at least
Conditional aspect of private property rights is a very big part of Alex's problem with the agenda 21 proposals
And then also the opposition involves anything they're opposed to anything that involves climate change
So those sorts of things explain why agenda 21 activists are generally on the hard right and many are associated with groups
Like American Policy Center the Heritage Foundation John Birch Society and the Eagle Forum
But that doesn't explain why Rosa Corey ostensibly a Democrat is also opposed to agenda 21
She's good friends with Joe Manchin. I don't think that's it
Private property rights and the paranoia surrounding them are generally the exclusive territory of the right. So it found this very confusing
Well, there's one other group that's super into property rights
You know serial killers, you know what Corey's career was before she became a public champion for agenda 21 fighting
She was an attorney for super rich people. It's close
She was a quote commercial real estate appraiser specializing in eminent domain acquisitions
Okay, she was in the business of using eminent domain to take land for private use by commercial interest, right?
Which is in direct opposition to government's parceling lands for public use, which is an element of sustainable development
In one public works case that she was involved in she said quote
I was able to put together the players and what was influencing restrictions on land and energy use
It was related directly to agenda 21 sustainable development. So she'd cracked the case
I wonder if the
If she is receiving any further funding from people who also may have the same interests
I'm not entirely sure I couldn't find any strong indications of that
So I would be remiss and trying to make that indication. I just I then I shall continue to wonder. Yeah
But she'd solved the mystery she cracked the nut, you know, she figured out all the players
21 so she began working to solve the problem
It seems mostly she did that by creating deceptively named organizations made to look like legitimate neighborhood groups
But we're probably just her she's literally a Russian troll. Yeah, there's some similarities
Yeah, she started the Santa Rosa neighborhood coalition to begin agitating which is definitely not the same thing as the very real Santa Rosa
Neighborhood Alliance whose chairman said he believed that Rosa's group consisted entirely of quote just her
And K K being Rosa's partner who is a general contractor. Oh, okay
So it's a property. So, okay, okay. I'm seeing I'm seeing some
Coincidentally aligned interests Rosa and Kay filed a frivolous lawsuit against the Santa Rosa gateways redevelopment district
Which caused the taxpayers tons of money and delayed the plan for three years
But ultimately achieved nothing
Other than that her strategy is seemed to be just to show up at local government planning meetings and disrupt them by screaming conspiracy theories
That is intentional as Corey has said quote these public meetings are truly designed to stop people from having an opportunity for input
There are times when the only way to block a thing is to really shut down a meeting. I
Really wish she hadn't gone pro with
With being a lunatic asshole like I feel like if she'd stayed amateur, that's a pretty fun hobby
I don't know. I think it's you know, some council meetings should be stopped by somebody walking in and screaming
Conspiracy theories, but not all of that. I think anybody who's involved in local meetings probably doesn't agree with you
privilege of not being there
Probably informs your opinion does that may have something to do with that
Yeah, Corey is an embodiment of how these conspiracies are destructive in real life settings
Opposition to anything that involves climate change and doesn't deify
Private property rights will become a target of coordinated right-wing attack as happened in the case of agenda 21
Conspiracy theories grow up around the plan that are wide-ranging enough that anything could be agenda 21
Is your city putting in a new park agenda 21 is your city trying to put bike lanes in or less polluting public transit agenda?
21 once the framework of the conspiracy is accepted anything can be made to fit
It anything could be a piece of it you saying that is part of agenda 21 probably
But even these people know they're talking bullshit their arguments don't make sense outside of info wars
So they know that the only thing they can do is scream at a city council meeting about how the UN is behind their cities proposed
Recycling program, but it's agenda 21 that convinces them to do so sure. It's all agenda 21 Dan in Baldwin County, Alabama
On November 6th 2012 all nine members of the Planning and Zoning Commission resigned in unison in protest
When their comprehensive development plan was killed it wasn't killed over budgetary concerns or anything like that
It was the result of tons of people accusing their plan of being too close to agenda 21 and protesting their meeting with conspiracy theory bullshit
The county needed a development plan too because between 1990 and 2000 they saw an increase in population of
42.9% and quote subdivisions were popping up everywhere with little consideration given to how many projects would fit with each other at the
environment and the future
These nine citizens tried to come up with a plan to help fix that problem and they were shouted down as UN conspirators trying to bring in tyranny
These people are
The worst yeah, exactly. How do we coexist with?
Like it there's got to be a way for us to
Like they can you can still have your agenda 21 fears, but we're not allowing you to influence actual policy ever again
Like how do we do that? Do we just like?
Dismantle Fox News. No, I don't think so. I think what you I mean, I don't know
I'm obviously wrong, but my answer always just comes back to greater education. That's I mean, that's the only thing I can come
Right, right, right, right. So anyway in this next clip
I would say that Corey the reason that I am stumbling a bit is because her last name is spelled K. O. I
RE
And I keep forgetting how to pronounce it as I look at it. Yeah, I want to say Corey
Every time Coyer Coyer
So she's she's expressing in this clip someone that Alex expresses a lot and it's
Real fallacious way of thinking it's this sort of idea that like people are attacking me. Therefore, I'm right
That does sound right and that is a dangerous dangerous mentality. I don't see how
You know what we do have them on the run when you start seeing this, you know, they're vilifying me in the press
That's when I know I'm winning when they're actually out there talking about this and they're saying oh that agenda 21
That's a good thing when they wouldn't even admit that it existed for 20 years
You know, then you know, you're winning again
It wasn't a secret like it wasn't no one denied that it exists. They denied your interpretation of it
Ah, and still do you and I will got you. But yeah, that that mentality is so fucking dangerous
That idea of like I'm getting criticism and that means I'm right
It's like now you could just be getting criticism because you're terrible. Yeah, that's a possibility
You can get criticism if you're right or if you're wrong
You could be getting criticism because you're creating fake groups of concerned citizens and trying to bully
City councils now sure people say creating fake groups and lying to people and
Disrupting council meetings people say those are bad and that's how I know they're good
So Corey I believe is probably the reason Alex is
In his head endgame headspace
Yeah
I think there's even a possibility that he rewatched endgame in order to prepare for her being there because he forgot what agenda 21 is
It would make sense that instead of doing his homework on the
Guest he does his homework on himself to remember what it is. He's I don't want to read her book
Yeah, exactly. I'll just I'll just watch endgame and assume she said the same stuff
I did also Alex is trying to sell his
Info wars magazine and he keeps calling it a pamphlet
Something right. Yeah
So that's kind of why I think he's in the endgame headspace and then he has another guest that comes in that starts to give an
Understanding of why he's in the religious headspace and why he's really into talking about post-trib rapture. Mr. T
They don't show up exactly yet, but this is sort of inter
Intro to their intro, let's say so understand if you want to know why we got in this position
Where the government now runs the churches it violates the First Amendment in common sense this country was founded on
It's because the leadership got bought off by the World Council of Churches the National Council of Churches the same Rockefeller groups
Go look it up and so from an anthropologist or sociologist view you need to see after the tribulation because the Bible
clearly states the tribulation comes after
The the the devil wages war on the saints and overcomes them and chops off their heads by the millions and all of this
I'm not particularly interested in talking about what the Bible does or doesn't say because I feel like that's just gonna we're gonna descend into a
Pit this is about the anthropology
Lessons that can be learned after what the Bible says. He's also not recommending people read the Bible. He's saying watch this documentary
Yeah, so that was a good documentary. So we've got the
We have the person who made this documentary as Alex's guest and here we go
This is the real deal ladies and gentlemen
Okay, we'll make me hate Christians and I hate gun owners because they know we understand what's going on
That's the litmus test that we know they're authoritarians now
He's with us for this hour and a little bit into the next hour
After the tribulation a film that they even did an infill war style trailer
Hmm without us even saying it so I went ahead and tagged on my own promo on to it
It's up at info wars.com right now
Everyone needs to buy this at infowarstore.com and go give it to their pastor their preachers and others and again
Pastor Steve Anderson is famously a hundred mile in checkpoints. He's been beat up for asking questions
We'll play some of that later. He's the guy that said, you know, he prays for Obama
You know to be brought down which is biblical got demonized for that
So it's Steve Anderson the aggressively homophobic preacher. We did an episode about him in the past
Yeah, so we don't need to go over too much of his history, but I was interested because I didn't remember him
Doing some biblical praying for Obama to be brought down. Alex is describing that as really innocuous
Yeah, well you some people just pray for the president to be quote brought down
But I think you hear Pat Robertson or Jim Baker do that every day
Yeah, I think I think you do and I think they probably do it in a way that you could describe as like
I don't like it, but you're not you're not you're not doing what Steve Anderson did
Well when Pat Robertson started praying for some Second Amendment people to take care of Obama
That was a little bit too far, right? We would never allow that kind of behavior. Well, here's what Steve Anderson did
Yeah, in 2009 the day before Obama was scheduled to make an appearance in Phoenix
Anderson gave a sermon that included clear
Exclamations that he hated Obama and he felt that Obama could not be saved. So praying for him was pointless
Well, then he loves the Bible. That's something that the Bible regularly talks about is yeah quote
I'm not going to pray for his good
I'm gonna pray that he dies and goes to hell when I go to bed tonight. That's how I'm gonna pray
The next day at Obama's speech a man named Christopher Broughton showed up with a loaded ar-15
To Obama's speech, which ultimately was probably more of a PR stunt than anything else, but it's deeply fucked up
There's so much more
This is so much worse than a pastor praying to be free of a government figure
He finds oppressive this is in praying for Obama's death from the pulpit
Then one of the people who was in the congregation when he gave that speech
Showing up at Obama's speech the next day with a loaded weapon the PR stunt is a threat in and of itself and everybody involved
Understands that but that's exactly what they're trying to normalize and they were that's what they were doing and they did a good job of it
Um, I mean good job is a weird way to put it, but yeah, well
So we did like I said, we did an episode on Steve Anderson ways back and he's that incredibly homophobic pastor who wants
Gays to die God on our show Dan. You're gonna need more than that
Well, he's the one who used to go on Alex's show, but now hates him
We got a deep well of people to pull from there right a little fun update on Steve Anderson
He was recently in the news after he became the first person ever to be banned from Ireland
Good good for him. That was just on the heels of him getting banned from the Netherlands
The last two Americans banned from the Netherlands were Richard Spencer and devout racist Jared Taylor, so he's in good company
Yeah, yeah, yeah, these were just two of the 26 European countries that banned Steve Anderson in the span of a week
26 European countries did they did that also get voted on in the EU elections was there a general
Referendum to ban Steve Anderson. I think they were all just places
He had planned to visit on a tour and they're like no, no, thank you and those 26 European countries joined Jamaica South Africa
The UK and Canada as countries where that piece of shit isn't welcome man. Why is he still allowed here?
Can we we can get rid of him, right? We can remove his citizenship
32 countries have decided that Anderson and his hate preaching in his calls to kill gay people are not welcome within their borders
Incidentally, you know who's still open welcomes him with open arms YouTube YouTube
He still has a YouTube channel really and Twitter. He still has a Twitter account
What yeah, you can get banned from countries before you get banned from YouTube and Twitter crazy
That seems nuts insane how little they care. I do not care. Yeah
Wow
So anyway to get views and retweets and clicks going anyway, here he is back on Alex's show
Just fucking going for it talking about post-trib rapture
Okay, as you go back to this this got pushed by the globalist about 150 years ago exactly because they were sick of Christians
Always fighting evil. Exactly. Don't worry about it. Go have a go have some fun
Scotty's up there. He's gonna beam you. So yeah, Scotty's got a little trouble. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Don't worry about it
so
Pre-trib rapture globalist conspiracy theory about a bang about a boom that makes the least sense of anything
I can possibly consider. Yeah, it's pretty nuts. That is that makes no sense from a
Like from a strategy standpoint, it makes no sense from a a goal standpoint now
So he gets a call the two of them. They start taking some calls
Okay, and they get a call from a guy in Australia who wants to talk about Carol Quigley and the book tragedy and hope
and
You know
Whatever he just talks about a passage that I'm positive. We've talked about this before it's a passage that Alex is completely
Misrepresenting this caller is misrepresenting
Quigley is talking about historically the difference between
Eras that are characterized by complex and simple weapons and when there are simple weapons with an ease of use for people like spears or
Something along those lines. Yeah, then you have a situation where power is much more diffuse
Because people are able to fight with each other. They have the weapons
Get big groups together and have conflicts
Whereas in more specialized times when you have I don't know drones
Something it becomes power can tend to become much more
Concentrated Alex reads that and thinks well
That means that they want to create specialized weapons in order to create consolidation and
Authoritarian power right as opposed to it being a descriptive analysis of how history has tended to go
Yeah, so anyway, I don't really care too much about that
But Alex does point out that he and his buddies completely stole the intellectual property of Carol Quigley
And then it turns into a sales pitch
the now now the plates got out and
Patriot groups associated with the John Burt society and others printed tens of thousands of these up in the 70s and
There were even threats of you know legal actions and things
But the point is they backed off and we found the publisher that republished that we do
I wasn't getting to sell the book today, but the caller from Australia called in and said have you read what's on page
1200 the unfolding of time so for Alex
I mean somebody who loves personal private property which extends to intellectual property rights certainly no we got the plates
so I mean Carol Quigley's book the you know tragedy and hope they only
Printed so many copies because it was a scholarly text that there wasn't a huge market right
So why would you print fucking tons of copies?
Especially if it's well over 1200 pages there wasn't a demand for this
So Alex and his Patriot buddies started reprinting them, which is a direct violation of his personal private property rights
So they don't even believe their own principles when it comes to some sort of way that they can
Disseminate messages and misinterpret not at all. So and then Alex sells it on his website now
So of course little sales pitch for that wonderful
But you might think that based on the fact that Alex sells
Tragedy and hope the stolen
The fact that he thinks that Carol Quigley has admitted the entire globalist plan in this book
The fact that he brings it up all the time you might think that he's read it
In this next clip he shows himself to be like a college sophomore talking about infinite jest and
Yes, I read most of this book. I'm gonna be honest with you. It's 1,300 pages long
I read most of it back in about 1996 and a few years ago. I tried to read it again
But the whole deal is how we control the left and the right we want there to be the illusion of choice
We want to bankrupt people make them dependent only we'll be able to operate
We like fascism. We like socialism. We like communism as long as it centralizes. We hate libertarianism
We hate freedom because it makes people uppity
In what possible world doesn't Alex Jones exist who hasn't read the entirety of a guy?
Admitting the global plan Alex Jones can't possibly believe that this is sincerely
An admission of the global plan. Yeah
He tried to read it and could not make hide nor tail of it and decided he quit
That's unacceptable. It is the way everybody read Finnegan's wake. That's unacceptable. Yeah, 100% unacceptable
Because if you or me doesn't finish a portrait of an artist as a young man
Whatever, right, that's fine
Right, however, if you're a fucking person who is a joy scholar and you haven't finished it
Go fuck yourself. It does seem like that undercuts my my scholarly credits
You're super passionate about the subject matter and you present yourself as an expert on it
You better goddamn well have finished the book because how could you not how could you not you would be?
You would have read it multiple times thirteen hundred pages as long, but it's not that long, right?
I'm a joy scholar, but it's like I'm not really into what he wrote. You know what?
I mean, I'm like I like I like James not not hear me jimmy James
Love them not hear me out on that. That's a completely different area
Totally fine with that. I'm not fine if that person then presents themselves to also be a scholar on things
They haven't fucking read well
I am a veterinarian that prescribes fake pills to people. So I think there's a lot of there's a lot of leeway
That's a fucked up moment. How dare he how dare he on every like I tried to read it in 96
Couldn't make a I try to get
Yeah, what are you gonna do? I had to go fucking fishing
Yeah, I assumed that he hadn't read it, but hearing him say it out loud is such a betrayal
Yeah, I want you to lie to me quiet. It's a betrayal of the pretense. Yeah
Yeah, we we come into this with an agreement that you pretend to at least believe the bullshit you say it's also a tacit like it
Sort of permission to his audience. You don't have to read it. Yeah. Yeah, of course
Even I didn't read it. He's selling it and he's like I'm not reading that shit. No, I know what other people have told me about it
I can make all the conclusions in the world that I want based on those
mischaracterizations of six pages of the book that I've read and I'm gonna be honest
I know the people who are telling me about it and I really don't think they've read it either
I mean, it's a really long book. I think he's probably read like six or seven pages of it
Yeah, that makes sense the pages of the relevant portions
Yeah, or he's only ready irrelevant the passages that are misrepresented in
Scousin like I think it's entirely possible. That's the only access to the book. He has which is a big problem
Yeah
And the only person that we can guarantee is read it is scousin because that's the only way
I'm not sure he read the whole thing. Well, the whole thing is long
100 pages long. Yeah, you know who's read it
Maybe that's it so in this next web Alex discusses like okay
So this caller called in and he was talking about the gun stuff in tragedy and hope and Alex had a vague memory of that
Sure caller was bringing this up and I remember reading this when he was saying it
I knew he wasn't lying because I had the the remnants of the memory of that
Be I guess that's what the beginning of wisdom is you don't remember at all
You just remember pieces, you know, the person's being accurate and he says right here
We don't want the general public having arms because it makes it a free society and we can't stand up against them
We want specialized armies to basically oppress them
And he goes on to talk about how you know, basically the founders wanted a citizen army in Western civilization and freedom
And they don't want that so no these
That's embarrassing stuff like that's that's an embarrassing level of
Unawareness of the topic you're covering. I have a remnant of a memory and I guess that's the beginning of wisdom, right?
Brevity is the soul of wit and a vague memory is the basis of wisdom
Yeah, that sounds right. That's not good
So in this next clip they're in overdrive now
And so like the when I we talked about this at the beginning of the show like he does an extra hour on a whim
And it's because this guy brings up Carol Quigley and Alex gets really excited to try and remember what he was about
Yeah, or at least gather his remnants. Yeah, and then also he's so into this post-trib rapture stuff
So he and Steve just there they're doing some it's not Jerome Corsi level that banter
Yeah, but the two of them are hitting it off quite well in terms of just like yeah, absolutely
This is the globalist playing the pre-trib rapture. Everybody fucking knows it. Of course, of course, and so they
Alex is pitching
Steve's work and you've got to give it to all your pastor friends and then a word comes up that has become
Sort of relevant to us recently discernment are very important to give all your preachers out there
They'll probably curl up like snakes and hiss at you and pull out a pitchfork
But the point no most of them don't know it's our job to challenge them
I'm not on some high horse either here folks. I mean, I'm Mr. Goodie, too
She's just an I know I know right from wrong. I know deception from the truth because I have discernment
I mean anybody who has discernment, right?
Especially then you integrate it with history and everything else and what the globalists are doing it just
You use the more I learned about the New World Order and then the more I go to the Bible
It's like oh my gosh now. I I could only now 38 years old almost 39 39 a couple days
Actually understand the Bible and it's just so deep now. Whoa
Man, I was
Have you ever read this Bible ship, but like really read it Jesus. That's
Is discernment a coded word that we're not aware of I think is so good at coding words
They even got discernment somehow
I think there is a religious connotation to it, but I think it's interesting because I don't necessarily think that it has that same
use in when like Kevin Moore or
Kerry Cassidy is saying it. Yeah, I don't think that they're coming from the same position
But Alex is using it fairly
Similarly, but there is a religious code here. Oh for sure. It there is something something there
Yeah, but discernment very very important for liars. I never I can't even remember the last time
I said discernment in any context
Well, I think it's a really powerful and useful way to make people distrust their own intuition
Because like you might have read the Bible and have your ideas about it
But I have discernment and I'm able to discern things. Yeah, you aren't able to yeah
So if you build up enough like cred for your discernment you have discernment cred you could get people to over
Over override their own
Intuition their own perspective they like well, they must know better. They have good discernment. Oh
So you have two clips coming up here
And they are just
Steve
Saying weird things about the Bible. Okay. The first is about weaponry
You know, the Bible definitely is very clear that every single person should have a weapon
You know all the way back to the book of Deuteronomy
He talks about every single citizen having a weapon and having a paddle on the back of their weapon and so forth because it restrains evil
And then also even Jesus Christ himself in the garden of Gethsemane said hey
If you don't have a sword you need to sell your code and they try to spin that now
And and and say it was misinterpreted and it's talking about a literal sword
They pulled out two literal swords and said lord, we have two swords and he said it's enough
And so the disciples had swords. All right, everybody got swords. Yeah, okay
It's not first kings. It's second amendment kings
Okay
Jesus and in this next one we learn that
religion
And the government
That would be prescribed by the bible more in line with alex than you might think
Romans 13 is really clear about what the purpose of government is the only purpose of government
Which is the punishment of evil doers evil doer meaning someone evil in the bible means harming someone else
So it's to punish people. It's a libertarian of
Exactly exactly right and so the god never gave the no initiation of force exactly
And so the god never gave the government the authority
To uh regulate our lives, but maybe Romans 13 or whether these main line preachers say maybe so
I hate you so much. Here's the problem with this
They're basically saying that god's a libertarian and the government that god would enact or would like
Based on the bible is a libertarian government based on the non-aggression principle right now
Maybe this god guy is stupid too. Well, here's the problem
Steve then says god didn't say that the government can regulate our lives
But how do you enforce the non-aggression principle without regulating?
We talked about it when we made fun of staphon molyneux the idea of the non-aggression principle applied
Universally involves deep regulation of businesses in terms of pollution because you can't can't initiate harm
You can't initiate a secondhand smoke on people because that is an aggression
Yep, um, you know, you'd have to uh completely regulate pollution many period so many aspects of people's lives
You wouldn't be able to allow cars. Yeah
Yeah, you you just can't and so a government that operated off that uh that god would be uh, uh cool with
involves
Intense regulation
So that's kind of a little bit of a contradiction for these dumb dumb. They don't like to think all the way through things
They just like to save like to fucking apply it to taxes
Anyway, they talk a lot about the pre and post-trib rap
Rapture stuff and personally I don't really care about those arguments much
I like pre and post-trib rap. You know what I'm saying. Sure quest. Yeah
I can see where alex's insistence on post-trib rapture comes from like, uh, although I would suggest that uh,
Just because you're personally not getting raptured before the tribulation
That doesn't mean that the natural conclusion is to just not care and allow an evil system to take hold and hurt everybody
No, I'm pretty sure that's morally cool with what god likes. I mean christian charity isn't just a self-serving thing
People work to feed the poor whose hunger they can't personally feel
So his idea that knowing the rapture is coming means you shouldn't resist
It's kind of simplistic and self-centered on its face and I don't think that it uh accurately depicts what a lot of christians believe
Uh, is what motivates their charity and they're caring for people
You would at least hope not. Not in my experience. I believe that there's a lot of people who even should the rapture be pre-tribulation would still
It wouldn't change their perspective alex is very much, uh, narcissistic-y on that
So, um, we have one last clip and it's uh, it should just give you a sense of how alex is treating callers on this show
Uh, he talks to that. You're a dick. He talks to the australian guy who, uh, wanted to bring up carol quickly
For quite a while that goes on a long time
Um, but for the most part it's more like this where alex goes to a call as the end of the show music is playing
All right, well listen folks. We're out of time. Uh, here's start of the other callers
I wanted to go to nick and benzel vangan last words from nick and benzel vangan 30 seconds
Take us out nick nick. Okay alex. I just wanted to say to you god bless you
God bless, um
Pastor anderson
You like albus are a living
No, no, you are see of the sunday 4 to 6 central
That is a solid way to get a caller off of whatever it is they wanted to say and just right on to like 15 seconds
You're the grace to your the you're the best god bless you
We'll see you next year. Yep
So, I don't know this show was really upsetting to me on many levels because
There is that trend that you can feel of the religiosity and the end gamey stuff
And then you see like oh
Each of these could be explained by one of these guests and these guests are both incredibly fucked up people
Yeah, it still doesn't make sense how fucking different it is from
January 31st, January 30th, January 29th, um in 2013. It is very different
All the stuff he was talking about has been left aside. There is no pierce morgan talk
Yeah, it's barely any uh, obama's the devil
Maybe the devil but not not as much impeachment talk in the way that he's been focusing
There's very little even they're gonna take our guns talk
This is one of the like and I think this has happened at least once maybe two or three times in every investigation that
We've done where it's been like
Okay, well this episode for some reason parked in between this long string of bullshit
Is evergreen and you have no idea what I or it could have come from. I strongly disagree. It's evergreen
But I
It's a bottle episode. Yeah, it's a bottle episode. It exists weirdly detached from the the surrounding context
So, I don't know. I mean, it's unsatisfying for me on many levels because I want to understand the trajectory through
2013 and I don't think this gives us anything
I think it just shows us, you know that he
Has these ideas that have been
There forever. Yeah, certainly the he's a psychic thing. We now see six years ago
He was sure saying the exact same thing almost word for word
And then you can see clear demonstrations of his inability or unwillingness to do any kind of research into the topics that he claims to be expert in
The no king but king jesus claiming it comes from
The revolution the american revolution time john adams and shit
Absolutely not that he has not looked into that in any meaningful way. He's just accepted quote unquote patriot lore about it
He has not read carol quigley's book by his own admission. He's tried and failed to read it
Something that he claims to be an expert on
Dr. Eric pianca. He claims he looked into his slideshow
But it's fucking skeletor that he's talking about not a pile of Rwandan skulls. This is bullshit
He is so even if it is a bottle episode and we get nothing necessarily in terms of the grander picture of his sandy hook path
It's still worth it for what a damning indictment. This is of his ability to do his own job
Yeah, this has just been a long string of him
Just really not knowing anything about anything. Oh, you mean the last two and a half years of doing the show
Yeah, but sometimes at least he pulls out something that's
This one is just this one is more like just admitting that he has no interest in learning about anything
Yeah, I do feel that way about it. Yeah
Anyway, uh, we'll be back on friday
Indeed we will but until then we uh, have a website. We do it's knowledge fight.com. That's right. We're on twitter
At knowledge underscore fight and i'm at go to bed jordan. We're on facebook. We are on facebook and we are also on the itunes
Uh, which I guess will no longer be something that we're on anymore since it won't exist very shortly. Oh, shit
We're an apple pod. Yeah, I guess. I don't know. What do we do? Migrate. Oh, no
All right, fine. I'll get on spotify
But you know, we we've come to the end of this and I would say, uh
Eric pionka
Yeah, he's killed anybody because we've already used quickly. Yeah, we've already used the quakes. Yeah, probably. Yeah, dr
Eric pionka is a little bit of a sensational speaker and uh prone to
Skeletorist crankiness certainly pretty cranky but also with a sense of humor and I appreciate that
Uh, but he's never killed anybody but one guy technically probably has and that is alex jones
Andy and chanzas you're on the air. Thanks for holding
So, alex, I'm a first time caller. I'm a huge fan. I love your work. I love you
