Starting point is 00:00:00 I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys saying we are the bad guys knowledge fight. Dan and George, knowledge fight. I need money. You want to work? Andy and Kansas. Andy and Kansas. Stop it.
Starting point is 00:00:43 Andy and Kansas. Andy and Kansas. It's time to pray. Andy and Kansas, you're on the air. Thanks for all that. Hello, Alex. I'm a Christian color. I'm a huge fan.
Starting point is 00:00:52 I love your word. Knowledge fight. No, no, no, no, no. Knowledgefight.com. I love you. I love you. Hey everybody. Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
Starting point is 00:01:01 I'm Dan. I'm Jordan. We're a couple dudes. I like to sit around, drink novelty beverages and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. Indeed we are, Dan. Jordan. Dan. Jordan.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Can I ask you a quick question? Yes. Do you have a bright spot for us? Sure. I got something that's a lot of fun, actually. Okay. So in this time that we're in, I've found that I feel like we all need to treat ourselves a little bit.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Sure. We're going to be, you know, isolating and self quarantining to an extent. Self quarantining might be like a really extreme right on it, but you know, if we're, if we're distancing a little bit trying to stay inside our houses more, we need to do little things. You got to stay sane. You got to do and you got to treat yourself with little things maybe that you wouldn't normally give yourself. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:01:45 So I have you eat some more popcorners. No, I do have plenty still though. I have a lot. But I did buy like a little mini freeze dried marshmallows just to put in things, you know, like that you would have. Yeah. Lucky charms. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Like just a bunch of those. Yeah. So that's I haven't actually cracked into that yet. So I'm not sure if that's a great treat. But one of the one of the other things I did was I realized that I used to have or not used to, but a while back I had a big. Clondike phase. Clondike bars.
Starting point is 00:02:16 Yes. Yeah. And I liked the variety of them. I paid about 50 cents each. Oh, okay. Three dollars to expect. Didn't do much for them. All right.
Starting point is 00:02:24 But they'd have these great flavors, you know, like there was a mint chip one that's great. Those are delicious. Reese's Cup one is too good. Fantastic. Too good. So I was at the store and I noticed that they had a new one that I'd never seen before and it was called Clondike donut. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Boston cream. That's against the law. What? So what it is is it's a Clondike bar, but the center is cut out of it. So it looks like a donut, right? Sure. And it's Boston cream and it's got Boston cream in there. It's all right.
Starting point is 00:02:51 It's all right. It's just all right. It's not that amazing, but it's good. It's whatever. It's a nice treat that I've given myself. Yeah. I like it. So I was curious because I was like, okay, Clondike bar donuts.
Starting point is 00:03:04 They're not just going to make one. No, it's got to be a series of them, but I didn't see any other flavors at the store. Sprinkles. Maybe I had to look into it. And what I did is I went to Clondike's website. This is the problem with being a brilliant researcher, Dan, even with Clondike bars. You have to look into it.
Starting point is 00:03:21 So I went to the website to see what other flavors there are. Yeah. And there's a couple other flavors. Okay. That's less important than the reviews that I found. It turns out. Okay. It turns out there is a community of people who are really mad at
Starting point is 00:03:34 Clondike bars. Why? I don't know. So here's a review of Boston cream. All right. Let's do this. I just bought a Boston cream six pack for same sale price. $3 as the other bars and donuts.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Boston cream donuts don't have holes. So why does the ice cream have holes? The weight range on the bars and donuts range from 68 to 85 grams, which is a 20% difference for the Boston cream. It's 73 grams. That's a 14% or 42 cent. I just bought a Boston cream six pack for the same sale price. $3 as the other bars and donuts.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Boston cream donuts don't have holes. So why does the ice cream have holes? You sent less than 85 grand bar. Also, I expected more flavor. Please send me a six pack of donut holes. You're stealing chocolate and ice cream from me. That's his review. Oh God.
Starting point is 00:04:25 So mad. So I found I was like, okay, maybe the Boston cream was just a boss. Sure. The other ones are good. Right. I checked out. They also have a triple chocolate donut variety.
Starting point is 00:04:36 This is a. They have a review there from Malera 33. All right. Don't. The people. I'm just. I'm just. The triple chocolate donut by Klondike OMG.
Starting point is 00:04:47 I had to go back and buy four more packs. I love chocolate and I love donuts and I love Klondike's my first bite. I was hooked exclamation point, dark chocolate, milk chocolate and the taste of donuts. What? Out of this world. I had to actually hide them from my daughter and husband.
Starting point is 00:05:02 We all love Klondike flavors, but this one took. Don't know. The donut donut, not the cake. The donut great combo and they better keep them in stock for me. Thanks Klondike. How many stars out of five? Do you think that got three?
Starting point is 00:05:19 Two? No. That's a five star review. I've ever heard one. I'm hiding them from my family. That's that's five stars. So then the other flavor is frosted strawberry donut. And this one.
Starting point is 00:05:36 This review is from Anne quote. Where's the strawberry ice cream ice cream looks like plain vanilla. There's no strawberry swirl and no sprinkles on top has barely a hint of strawberry flavor will not buy this ever again. Five stars. No one star, but this review got a response from Klondike. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:55 All right. What do they got? Klondike replies quote. Thanks for the review on Klondike frosted strawberry donut. We're very sorry to hear about your experience. We would like to hear more about your feedback to which I would say I think she was pretty clear. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:07 I think she got it all. I don't know. I don't know. Strawberry. What else do you want? Yeah. So anyway, I had a great time looking at reviews of Klondike.
Starting point is 00:06:15 And recognizing that their audience, their customer base has a real difficult time expressing what's wrong. Exactly. Yes. I mean she had a pretty clear complaint. Yeah. And understands what she's doing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:28 So that brightened my day. That's that's fun. I like to read Klondike reviews thinking about like what it would take for me to leave a review of a Klondike bar that disappointed me. Anyway, what about you? I love it. I love it. The new album by Thunder Cat Dan is amazing.
Starting point is 00:06:46 Also it has a track. Did you ever watch Carol in Tuesday? I don't think so. It was an anime that Netflix did by the same. It's about two girls singer songwriters becoming famous. That's the whole thing. It's really, really sweet and in it. Thunder Cat has a song called unrequited love and he's a brilliant
Starting point is 00:07:10 basis. It's a beautiful song, but at one point in a fit of cleverness that I will never understand. He said he calls it unrequited love because they're no longer in love. It's okay. It's spelled the same way. That's a game changer, Dan.
Starting point is 00:07:26 That's that's a game changer. I don't whole world is different now. I don't know if I experience it as a game changer, but it sounds interesting. I'll check it out and I appreciate the recommendation. It's a really great album. All right. So you recommend that album.
Starting point is 00:07:39 I recommend reviews of snatch. Exactly. Go find people being petty as hell online in a very harmless way and listen to a virtuoso basis while you do it. So Jordan, today we got an episode to go over. What would that be? I got the date in front of me. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:07:56 There are no days. We're going over March 27th 2020. I'm Dan. This is 2020. On the Alex Jones show and it's really. I mean, this is something that people are really excited about. I know and that is because the last weekend did real bad for Alex. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Got a bit of bad news all on Friday. There was the news that broke about his appeal for a bunch of sanctions and a Sandy Hook lawsuit that he was. The appeal was denied and also he got his app kicked off the Android store. So he had a lot going on. We'll see how his mood happens to be on this day. I'm going to go with great. He's he's living.
Starting point is 00:08:35 What he would describe as his best life, which is bad. That's not good. So we'll get down to that. But before we do go take a moment to say thank you to some folks who signed up and are sporting the show. So first David, thank you so much. You're now policy. You're now policy.
Starting point is 00:08:48 I'm Pendek. I'm a policy wanderer. I'm a policy work. I'm a policy one next. Damn. Thank you so much. You're now policy work. Great name.
Starting point is 00:08:56 I'm a policy walk. Dan. Next Peter. Thank you so much. You're now a policy. Walk, I'm a policy. Walk. Thanks Pete next beat.
Starting point is 00:09:04 Thanks, B Dub. Thank you so much. You're now policy. Walk. I'm a policy. Walk. I'm a policy. Walk.
Starting point is 00:09:12 succeededure. Thank you so much. Hello. Probably snail. You're gonna go with snail. They can move. Slowly fair, but leaves are kind of at their own. What if they fell while the snail was on top of it?
Starting point is 00:09:25 Who wins? Is this a like paper rock scissors thing? I think so. Not sure. Let's figure this out after the show. And finally, I'd like to say thank you to somebody who donated on elevated level. We appreciate that very much. So Andrew, but I wanted to stand out.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Thank you so much. You are now a technocrat. I'm a policy. Walk. That's fantastic. Have yourself a brew. How's your 401k doing, bro? We got to go full tilt buggy on this Watson.
Starting point is 00:09:49 All right. Let's just get down to business. We ain't making that money off that heroin. Why are you pimp so good? My neck is freakishly large. I declare info war on you. Thank you so much, Andrew. But I wanted to stand out.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Thank you very much. That was clever. That's a clever way to stand out. Indeed it is. Yes. If you're out there enjoying the show and you'd like to support it, what we do, you can do that by going to our website, knowledgefight.com, clicking the button to support the show, or funneling that money towards charitable causes in your area.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Absolutely. So Jordan, we have an out of context drop to start things off here from the March 27th show that we're going to go over. It's a little bit of a, it's been a little bit long for an out of context drop, but I thought it was really fun. All right. Real red pill and red pill plus. I can't seem to say that.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Like super crazy, fragilistic, expialidocious. I can say that, but I can't say real red pill, real red pill plus. He uses supercalifragilistic expialidocious as something he can say, but then he fucks it up saying it. I don't know why, but I found that really very fun. Yeah. So Alex starts off the show and he starts on what I would describe as a kind of grandiose tip.
Starting point is 00:10:55 The year is 2020 on this Friday, global transmission year, 220 days out from the election. And I can say authoritatively that this is the most informative, well researched broadcast in the world. And it is listened to by people in industry, the general public and experts in governments everywhere. Not Android. It's happening. It's just a fact and it's a great responsibility.
Starting point is 00:11:23 And I am honored to be here and to be your host and for this to be the people's independent media fighting against this post human globalist operation. What an absurd opening to this show that is ridiculous. But you also notice he's starting to use the good guy music star wars a little bit more. It's seems to be coming up a bit more. He's got some swelling strings in there. Yep. So he has the most researched most listened to by world leaders and I realize when he
Starting point is 00:11:52 says people in the industry. I think he must mean radio liars. It could be radio or it could be spies regular grifters. I don't know but all that's nonsense. Yes. Alex believes that the media is saying you know in the way that they're saying that we all should be following these these guidelines for public health recommendations. Alex thinks that what they're saying is we will never be normal again.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Okay. It is the greatest that ever to face. This virus has run its course. We will never be the same. We will no longer shake hands. We will now be the bubble people. I've not heard anybody say that we're going to be bubble people. I haven't heard that we're going to be bubble people.
Starting point is 00:12:44 No. Jake Gyllenhaal isn't even a bubble person yet. No. I don't know what media he's reading if that's the vibe he's getting. We will never shake hands again. You will never touch. Right. I mean I guess you could you could exaggerate what's very normal which is pieces saying
Starting point is 00:13:02 that the world is going to be different now. Right. This is going to change the world and turn it into we're never going to be normal again. I think people are just like well the new normal is going to be normal. Bubbles. Yep. Okay. Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:13:16 We're going to be bubble people. Bubbles. Bubbles. Moops. Moops. So Alex believes that there's going to be people in America put in prison for not social distancing. Sure.
Starting point is 00:13:28 And he gets into that a little bit here. It's all about medical tyranny surveillance. It's all about six months in jail if you don't properly social distance. That's what the Chicago mayor is saying and Singapore passed a law. So in the case of Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot she recently gave a press conference where she was very clearly a bit pissed that the city's leadership had given some pretty clear guidance in terms of saying hey people shouldn't be getting out there in big groups and people were still going to parks and hanging out at the like at the walks and what have you.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Yeah. That's fair. She indicated that people if people continue to not take things seriously the city would be forced to act saying quote not only will our police be deployed to shut them down if you're not abiding by these orders we will be forced to shut down the parks and lakefront. The situation is deadly serious and we need you to take it deadly seriously. Alex watches a lot of movies so I'm going to put it to him in terms that he can understand.
Starting point is 00:14:26 In jaws people needed to stop going to the beach. It was dangerous but they love the beach and they didn't want to take the threat seriously. The mayor needed to close all the beaches to protect the population from themselves but he didn't do it which got a lot of people killed. Mayor Vaughn is the bad guy in joy. The shark is just a force of nature. Didn't a governor or a mayor or something recently say that his hero was a I don't know because possibly he didn't close the beach.
Starting point is 00:14:54 That's not the message of the movie. It's not no the conversation about arresting people for not following health guidelines was initiated by actually not by Lori Lightfoot but the superintendent of the police Charlie Beck who said quote the public health order is not an advisory. It is a mandate. If you violate you are subject to a fine of $500. If you continue to violate it you will be subject to arrest. Clearly the message that was being sent is that you can be arrested as a last resort.
Starting point is 00:15:22 If you're habitually engaging in Bay of your counter to health guidelines. I don't hear that as much as the threat of an arrest of people as it is a reminder that arrest is possible as an outcome. Yeah. Obviously with the issues of prison overcrowding and health within prisons. No one's eager to increase unnecessary incarcerations right now. So you have to just kind of assume that it would be a misdemeanor arrest that you get released on.
Starting point is 00:15:45 You wouldn't be going to jail. Right. Anybody who's doing that like four or five times probably should be in jail. But it wouldn't be. I'm no no no. That's what I'm saying. Just an elevated ticket of some sort. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Exactly. Conversely Singapore is actually threatening people with six months in jail for breaking health guidance. There's a couple of big caveats here though. The first is that people who violate their order to keep at least one meter apart from people or meeting groups of more than 10. They're subject to either six months imprisonment or a fine equivalent to seven thousand US dollars.
Starting point is 00:16:15 Damn. It's unclear which one is more likely. The second big caveat is that it's never a good idea to use Singapore as your example when you're talking about criminal matters. They have a notoriously draconian justice system. You may recall back in nineteen ninety four a teen from the United States was arrested for vandalism and was sentenced to four months in prison a thirty five hundred dollar fine and six strokes from the cane.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Bill Clinton appealed for clemency and in a show of respect the leader of Singapore reduced it to four strokes. That was very kind of him. Yeah. Yeah. In addition to caning being a form of punishment the state uses. They also have a very broad definition of what sorts of crimes will get you the death sentence.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Supporting exporting or possessing more than five hundred grams of marijuana thirty grams of cocaine or fifteen grams of heroin heroin will get you a mandatory death sentence. That seems excessive. If you hear that Singapore is threatening to arrest people for violating health guidelines that might not be exciting news but it also shouldn't surprise anyone. It's honestly a pretty lax punishment given some of the things we know about their justice system. The only reason to bring that up here in the context Alex is because he wants to imply
Starting point is 00:17:22 that Chicago is doing the same thing as Singapore is doing and that's not really fair. No. He's trying to create that that conflation in people's minds. Of course. Of course. So Alex is continuing down his path of trying to say that this is just like the flu. Sure. And talking about how awful and how much worse the flu is.
Starting point is 00:17:43 And now they're saying the United States is the global epicenter by the whole country is covered in red the way the model works. Less people have died worldwide from the coronavirus this year than died of the flu last year. Thirty five thousand have died. Twenty one thousand have died from the coronavirus. Supposedly thirty five thousand US. Eighty thousand died. We're in the CDC in 2018 for the flu.
Starting point is 00:18:15 The worst flu in years. First of all Alex is completely lying about the CDC's numbers from 2018. I'm talking about the number of people who die in a given year January through December isn't really a useful way to frame things in this kind of conversation. Flu season begins in like October and it starts to wrap up in February or March so it overlaps years. If you're talking about just flu cases in 2018 you would end up talking about the cases at the end of one season and the cases at the beginning of another.
Starting point is 00:18:44 It could be different strains. It's generally not how these statistics are discussed and definitely not how they're usually presented on the CDC's website. I'm not sure which flu season he's trying to use since this would be either the twenty seventeen twenty eighteen flu season or the twenty eighteen twenty nineteen flu season. Either way he's lying when he says the eighty thousand number. Directly from the CDC's website they estimate sixty one thousand deaths from the influenza like illnesses in the twenty seventeen twenty eighteen season and thirty four thousand
Starting point is 00:19:13 two hundred in the twenty eighteen twenty nineteen season. These are imprecise estimates but they're probably spiritually accurate which is to say that the twenty seventeen twenty eighteen season was more deadly than the following year. Alex is taking his information from news articles from late twenty eighteen when the CDC's director came out and estimated there had been eighty thousand deaths that season which would be the twenty seventeen twenty eighteen season. However articles about this do point out that quote CDC officials called the eighty thousand
Starting point is 00:19:41 figure preliminary and that it might be revised and it was but if you just read the headline you probably wouldn't know that. We discussed on our last episode why flu comparisons are dumb but I wanted to chime in here just to show that even when discussing something that's kind of irrelevant but factually indisputable namely that worldwide deaths from coronavirus are not yet up to the estimate of deaths from the U.S. from flu like illnesses in that twenty seventy twenty eighteen season even when he's talking about that Alex can't help himself for being wrong. Glad to know this is the most researched show in the world.
Starting point is 00:20:16 He probably shouldn't be able to start his shows like that. It's parody. It is. It's it's what you would do if you were making a joke. It's it's literally like that that clip of like I just can't pronounce red pill but I can pronounce super catch a fragile best is like that's exactly what's going on right saying this is really researched. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Yeah. Exactly. It's the exact same thing. It would be like me saying this is the least hairy broadcast in the world. This is the podcast where the host has the least back hair. It's just gaslighting. Yeah. Anyway Alex has started taking a tone and I've noticed it picking up more.
Starting point is 00:20:56 I mean obviously he he's blaming China and what have you but in the most recent episodes I've picked up a little bit of a trend where it's more blaming Chinese people great less so than the Chinese government's decisions which I think I mean I don't want Alex to do it because I don't think he can handle the conversation but I think that you know people have on conversation about whether or not China acted the way that it should have you know that's a conversation that can be had right. Maybe World Health Organization folks would rather not have that conversation while the pandemic is right right right but people in the media who are like did China cover up
Starting point is 00:21:34 their numbers early on did they act quickly enough. I don't think that is necessarily a toxic conversation but conversations about Chinese people and their actions particularly Chinese Americans. Yeah. Real bad. Yeah. And I believe that Alex is starting to get into that territory. That's not good.
Starting point is 00:21:54 The Democrats didn't want us to stop Chinese from flying here when everybody else had banned them a few months ago and it's also the Chinese that came here under government orders and bought up all the M95 masks in the medicine and that stopped shipments of medicine that would already been paid for to the United States Australia and other countries and actually Poland. But then the left celebrates GQ has a story out GQ writer saying America is a crap hole because we're the epicenter and it's our fault and we're bad. So we're seeing Alex take this rhetoric in a very disturbing direction.
Starting point is 00:22:34 He's always been a huge racist and he's definitely engaged in narratives that blame immigrants for bringing disease in the past and we've called that out when he has. What he's starting to do now is still an escalation though because the same behavior that he's had in the past in different circumstances as the potential to cause different results. When he was yelling about refugees from the south border coming in from the southern border having Ebola. He was trying to demonize non white immigrants and that is completely clear and awful. But there wasn't any Ebola.
Starting point is 00:23:03 He was making up an imaginary threat to scapegoat onto those refugees which is bad but not nearly as bad as what he's doing now. There is a real outbreak now and Alex is beginning to act in ways where he's blaming Chinese people for it being bad like making up that they came here and bought up all the masks and medicine. Yeah. These are the sorts of claims that if believed by a wide enough audience stands to get Chinese people killed.
Starting point is 00:23:26 The fact that there's a real outbreak elevates Alex's behavior from being absolutely unacceptable bigotry to being outright incitement. Many people in his audience may have a loved one who have gotten diagnosed with the virus and what Alex is trying to do is direct their feelings of anger towards Chinese people. He's not talking about the Chinese government. He's talking about some mysterious non specific Chinese people who got flown in and bought up medicine and masks. Yep.
Starting point is 00:23:53 So what's going on here is Alex is working two different angles simultaneously also which is troubling. What he's literally saying currently is that the outbreak is no big deal. It's basically the flu and everyone should go back to work. But what he's preparing for with his rhetoric is the exact opposite. He knows that this is going to get worse and he knows that people who are affected by it and who maybe lose loved ones and family members and friends. They're going to be looking for someone to blame.
Starting point is 00:24:18 All indications from reality show that the Trump administration made some really bad early decisions that have led us to where we are now. So Alex needs to find a way to deflect from people recognizing that. Ultimately he's a racist and he's lazy so the only path he can come up with to go down is to demonize a minority group and scapegoat them for his hero's failings which is kind of what a Nazi might do. Yeah, it's pretty much exactly what a Nazi might do. Imagine just imagine being an info warrior walking down the street.
Starting point is 00:24:45 You're a family member has just died and then you see a Chinese person with wearing a mask right and maybe a nice watch. Exactly last yeah yeah yeah and you think god damn it. They stole it from me and killed a family member. You don't even need that level of cognitive processing right. You're already seeing reports of increased hostility towards Asian Americans because of these sorts of yeah you don't you don't need the concrete a to b but discussing it in terms like this allows people to subconsciously make jumps in their
Starting point is 00:25:21 brain that they don't even realize they're making right this facilitates racism. This facilitates non specific bigotry hostility and potentially violence. Yep and it's really really fucked up. It's the exact behavior you would not want to see in these sorts of circumstances. Yeah. This kind of racism leads to internment camps. Well not right now because that would be murder but I mean there are already people yeah and camps.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Oh boy. Yeah that's true. So Alex is really defensive about how everyone says don't call it the Chinese virus which obviously you shouldn't call it the Chinese virus but Alex likes doing that and he likes playing fentanyl the Chinese racist dragon character Jesus. So he needs to make sure that everyone knows that this is OK. And yes it's a Chinese virus. You always say where something came from like Rocky Mountain tick fever or the Spanish
Starting point is 00:26:21 flu it first came out of there or any of these diseases. They almost always have the name of where they originated from. Alex is just the biggest idiot in the world man. And before I get into any of this I'd like to remind you that he claimed at the start of the show that his is the most researched show in the world. So as to the Rocky Mountain tick fever that's actually called Rocky Mountain spotted fever. The disease is or was initially called black measles because of the coloration of the rash that it causes.
Starting point is 00:26:51 However eventually it was found that it wasn't a type of measles and it was associated with tick bites. Sure it's actually from everything I can tell it's named after the laboratory where most of the research into the disease was done. The Rocky Mountain laboratories. It's largely a misleading name since almost all the cases of Rocky Mountain spotted fever occur east of Oklahoma with very few actually occurring in the Rockies area. It's debatable if it's also named after the fact that some of the first identified cases
Starting point is 00:27:19 were initially thought to be caused by the Rocky Mountain wood tick exclusively from that. Yeah yeah yeah. Which is native to the Rockies but even if that's the case it's less geographical in nature and more about the ticks. It's the ticks yeah. The disease vector. Right.
Starting point is 00:27:35 Which is still not great according to epidemiologists and health professionals. You can you know like swine flu you end up with unnecessary slaughtering of animals and Spanish flu is even worse as an example. You may recall that as the name that was given to the pandemic flu outbreak from 1918. If you know your history you also know that 1918 happens to be at the tail end of World War One. What you might not remember so easily is that Spain was neutral in World War One which meant that they weren't living in the same wartime restrictions as most of the other
Starting point is 00:28:07 allied or central power countries were. Due to the need to keep morale high almost every country that was involved in World War One had highly censored news publication rules and they actively suppressed reporting about the flu. This was not a consideration for the Spanish media who were relatively free to report on the reality of the outbreaks going on. Beginning in May 1918 they were reporting more candidly than anyone else about what was actually happening which made it appear that they were the source of the outbreak which probably
Starting point is 00:28:36 wasn't true. No one actually knows definitively where the flu of 1918 came from but there are a number of theories none of which are Spain. If you're going strictly by chronology the first known case of that flu happened on March 4th 1918 when a soldier at Fort Riley in Kansas the United States fell ill. One theory is that soldiers going to war in Europe introduced the disease from there but again it's hard to definitively know if that's the actual ultimate beginning point. Sure yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:04 These are shitty examples that Alex is using but we've had you know we do have a bad history of naming diseases after places for a long time. West Nile virus or Rip Valley fever definitely come to mind as better examples Alex could have used. These diseases were named prior to the World Health Organization instituting rules in 2015 about naming conventions where it was discouraged to name diseases after groups of people places or animals because it was recognized there was a considerable considerable stigma that came along with that practice that was completely unnecessary and dangerous.
Starting point is 00:29:35 There's a rich history of using illnesses to demonize groups of people like for instance according to stat news when syphilis first came around it quote was known as the Napoleon not an apolitan the Neapolitan Neapolitan disease among the French and the French disease among the Italians Russians called it the Polish disease and the Polish called it the German disease. Yep this sort of thing is counterproductive to public health so in present day it's heavily discouraged. The issue for Alex though is that demonizing Chinese people is exactly what he wants to
Starting point is 00:30:08 do so explaining to him that we don't name diseases that way so we don't pointlessly demonize people isn't going to help now that's the point yeah yeah it's it's amazing how well human beings learn you know and also how very very very very very poorly and not at all we do it's amazing yep it's twenty fucking twenty you better there's not in I'm Dan it's twenty twenty of it so I was mostly interested in listening to the show not because of whatever fun lies he was going to tell about the coronavirus were kind of deflections he was going to have about Trump that's kind of standard stuff and you know like I was really more interested in tuning in to find out what are we going to do about
Starting point is 00:30:51 the bad news right right right what are we going to do and not talk about well it's interesting Alex's approaches is unexpected but also completely predictable so he starts a segment by bringing up how the media always lies about his court case it's a media's fault and want to be clear the way he's setting this up it's obvious that he's talking about the stories that have come out about the sandy hook sure of course so he gets into this and it's it's bizarre it's really bizarre all right let me just state the facts so that everybody understands where we're really at on New Year's Eve starting this year ending 2019 every TV channel every news program from Fox News the CNN to local CBS ran tickers
Starting point is 00:31:48 Alex Jones lost a lawsuit for attacking sandy hook children none of that was even true and they do that on a routine basis on every channel including cruise ships in South Africa that's on the little handout at your door every morning on the front Alex Jones attack people's children that South African cruise ship newsletter wasn't about Alex's court case that was about his DUI and it wasn't on the front page it was just an aggregated feed of AP stories this is a pathetic attempt to repurpose that narrative here not good as of the question of whether or not the media constantly lies about Alex's court cases I would say they do not in terms of the New Year's Eve stuff those stories that came out on December 31st 2019 were not about Alex losing any case
Starting point is 00:32:36 the headlines were that Alex had to pay a hundred thousand dollars in fines for his ridiculous behavior as the BBC reported this was because quote Mr. Jones and his lawyer had intentionally disregarded an October court order to produce witnesses and other materials to the plaintiffs in the lawsuit some of this is out Rob do's fault yeah oh yeah yeah the AP story about this from back then clearly says that quote he weighed Jeffries an attorney for Jones said in an email Tuesday that they would appeal the decision not to dismiss the fines this is because they had previously requested that the fines be dismissed which was declined so Alex then appealed the decision to dismiss the fines right that gets us to the present day because on March 26
Starting point is 00:33:19 they was reported that Alex lost that appeal and that he was facing approximately one hundred fifty thousand dollars in fines and fees in this case even before the trial has begun he's going to end up with even more before this is all said and done because his strategy is clearly that he's going to file frivolous motion after frivolous motion he doesn't have any other shot because he probably knows this trial is the potential to end his career oh yeah but even though the media is reporting on Alex losing this appeal in the present day the Austin American statesman clearly says that Alex's lawyer plans to appeal this to the Texas Supreme Court so Alex can get on his show here and pretend that he's definitely
Starting point is 00:33:55 winning this thing when all he's really doing is trying to run out the clock yep it's probably all in other cases you know hoping to become such a hassle to the plaintiffs that they settle but I don't think that's play is going to work here I think he's just delaying the inevitable not this time this time it's going to be real consequences for your shit so he's saying that everybody the media always lies and the media said that he lost this case back then which obviously is meant to imply that these news stories that are coming out now are also the same lies as from New Year's but he doesn't say that that's just the implication that you would understand very clearly if you knew the news that had come out sure but Alex doesn't bring
Starting point is 00:34:34 up the new story why would he it's very weird it would hurt it's very weird so anyway the goblas need to make a villain out of Alex why do they do that because the order from the shadow government went out programmed in to the mockingbird system there were congressional hearings about this in the 70s operation mockingbird to make me a villain now why are they doing because when the council on foreign relations and the Atlantic Council and all of these other globalist organizations tune into this show they know I know about the organization of economic cooperative development as the main root corporation of the whole world government joy know I know about the XM Bank they know that I really have done the research and I know
Starting point is 00:35:28 what their in-game plan is and it freaks them out none of that is private stuff Trump just appointed ahead of the exports imports by now there is that yeah you know like it's not none of the globalists aren't worried about this globalist just super catch a fragilistic expialido as a group in Alex's conception don't exist but if they did they would not be worried about what Alex does they would be like all right he's just gonna make a couple bucks hustling pills and yelling yeah all right that sounds about right also why would they make you a villain because you play the imperial fucking March theme song like I've got everybody you like as a villain even if they were real it's just not hard but also like you know who else
Starting point is 00:36:13 would make you a villain anybody who cares about other people yeah exactly like that's really the reality what you're just the way you behave and the the rhetoric that comes forth in the world that you wish to create through your rhetoric right is something that's offensive to most decent people so I think they would have a vested interest in portraying you as you are which is villainous yes yeah absolutely no need for globalists to the equation I don't know why do they why would they make you look like a villain and then you just play the fentanyl clip and you're like oh yeah yeah done done so Alex that is a is the scourge of the globalist this is all still in this this rant that was begun
Starting point is 00:36:52 by the introduction of they always lie about me losing court cases right right right you think that he's eventually going to get to this news but instead he's just like man they're so scared to me so you have to understand this broadcast with the guest and the calls and myself and the crew is the zeitgeist it's like of the running man when they take over the TV station and air the tape showing that it's all fake television and the government's villainous and run by criminals and it's game over but it's not that simple the globalist tune in and they go if people ever pay attention to this if they ever look into this it's over for us I don't know about that I've been looking into his stuff for quite
Starting point is 00:37:42 a while and I've not had the same response that Alex thinks that people would if they looked into stuff I would say almost the opposite yeah just just to just as a point a couple episodes ago we were going through what type of movies on there I am going to cross off running man we got that one down you got to get a bingo card we got a rollerball we got we really should get a bingo card we really should yeah yeah I think it would be it would be used up very quickly I think we're going to get to Logan's run I think that one's next I'm I'm positive I've heard him mention it but maybe not on our show so Alex knows that the globalists need to make him a villain and they need to do that because once they
Starting point is 00:38:23 have him bad bad as if most people don't already fucking hate him yeah yeah yeah once they've ruined his name oh no then they can kill him now before they can put me in prison or kill me they've got to kill my name as a populist nationalist Christian patriot aha it's in capital letters before they kill me but they do intend to kill me sure that's okay I'm not worried about me I'm worried about the true anti-human evil that seeks to literally sterilize every man child on the planet by law that's there by law it's talking to children of men oh there we go in the mail that's why you see that in the movies you see the feminist group saying we should abort male babies we should outlaw male fetuses this is put out now by
Starting point is 00:39:16 mainline groups you're like well that sounds horrific it is horrific so this is a great moment that helps reveal how little Alex knows about anything he's just mad that the Tavistock clinic has a wing dedicated to gender since 1989 called the gender identity development service he thinks that a clinic focus on on providing care around gender identity is equivalent to them wanting to eliminate males which is just a byproduct of his bigotry the confusion comes because there's another entity called the Tavistock Institute of Human Relations which grew out of the Tavistock clinic but has been a completely separate organization since September 1947 the Tavistock Institute engages in education and advocacy surrounding issues related to
Starting point is 00:39:58 social science and they release the journal human relations Alex thinks that the Tavistock clinic and the Tavistock Institute are the same thing I've heard him get them completely confused on many occasions and honestly if this is the level of work he's bringing I don't really think the globalists need to be too worried about him yeah we've covered Tavistock before over the years there have been plenty of think pieces written about how women could probably do a better job of ending wars than men which kind of relates to what Alex was talking about yeah but I can't find any of them that relate to suggesting that men should be gotten rid of maybe a tweet here and there yeah I found ones that argue for higher representation of women
Starting point is 00:40:35 in peace negotiations and there's plenty of articles that have references references to Lysistrada but the sort of thing that Alex is talking about doesn't seem like it's real outside of ridiculous conspiracy theories that basically just grow out of anti-LGBTQ ideology man he hates Escalus yeah so I don't know I don't I don't find a whole lot of truth there but it's so fascinating to me how consistent this inability to understand like I really don't think he knows that the Tavistock Institute and clinic are different things I absolutely agree with you there's no way he I'm fascinated by that because he has every reason to and if he and if you told him he'd be like no they're not they're secretly
Starting point is 00:41:14 exactly he just just a blanket they're both just named after Tavistock Square disgusting where it the anyway I called the Chinese Tavistock Square so Alex is mad at the leftists and again this is still part of the same segment that begins with the ramble about the lying about his court cases they need to destroy my name I'm the zeitgeist the globalists fear me it's all sort of in the same theme yeah you know yeah yeah if you look at the the ivory towers the conformity of the universities the conformity of the left and how they revel in conformity and how they believe their collectivist on some good mission there's such that in their own world and system they have submission to the tyranny and they have
Starting point is 00:42:09 submission to the lie they're delusional they're becoming dumber they're dying they're becoming bankrupt they're not having children they're dead they're they're depressed they're statistically destroyed all the metrics show but still they delusion only believe in the great quest that they can pull down America and pull down Christ and they can rearrange the family that somehow their university degree as a liberal as a leftist will put them in a position of power in this new utopian vision that they're all going to run someday but first they've got to make you submit to the model that they have for you which is an anti-human model and you ask why do they keep trying that because if you are following the real
Starting point is 00:42:57 human model it coated in you by God you will be successful you will be empowered you will have a relationship with God and the universe God created you will interface with it you will have discernment you will be fulfilled you won't need them Alex still has not addressed these new stories no this is what he chooses to this is how he wants to cover losing this appeal yeah which is rambling about demons and leftists and they're all dead already and projecting exactly what he's trying to do onto the leftists and talk about conformity the entire right wing propaganda machine has turned the right wing into a cult of Trump yeah there's nothing more conforming than a thirty five percent of the country no matter
Starting point is 00:43:42 no matter what believing that Trump is perfect yeah yeah it's a yeah it's disgusting yeah I agree so Alex is still like I do I I can't stress this enough there's all these does this whole segment and does not address the actual news at all but you can tell that's what he is behind yeah what he's doing when you don't work when you don't build when you don't strive you become lackadaisical unhappy corrupt decadent twisted but more importantly domesticated and obsolete and ready for the fire that's why they're building this world where humans aren't needed that's why it's not it's not progress it is destruction they didn't put the Native Americans on the reservations to empower them they put them there to exterminate
Starting point is 00:44:32 them slowly so this this isn't progress this is an overwrite this is a post human world and President Trump understands that and we're not going along with their post human world so they're forcing it with his virus so I think Alex has completely lost the thread that's what he seems to be trying to talk about I don't think I can you I don't think you can just bring himself to look again once again stories of my lost appeals are not true yeah yeah I just I feel like he's like I don't know it feels like he's lashing out like a child that just gotten trouble and so now he's like yeah smashing glasses over there just like I need to get something out of this deal with what my actions and the way of the the
Starting point is 00:45:18 way the glass smashing becomes like manifested is just like trying to yell about how you're the target of an entire worldwide conspiracy yep and you know within minutes he's bought the races and this completely unrelated stuff I will say however at this point he like I said has not addressed the new news at all at all that you know but having said that it's nice to hear him say that what the US did to the native peoples was an attempt at genocide and extermination that seems like something he pretty consistently denies because he's pretty invested in the American exceptionalism line where all negative talk about the country and its history is just the product of globalist meddling I imagine if he was pressed on it
Starting point is 00:46:00 he'd probably say that the globalist are trying to kill the natives sure and Andrew Jackson of course trying to defend them against it sure but whatever yeah leaving that aside it should be pointed out that on Friday news broke about the Department of the Interior ordering that the reservation of the Mashpee Wampoog tribe be disestablished the land was put into a trust in 2015 but Trump's administration went back on that in September 2018 there have been ongoing legal disputes about this but I don't think there's any way to look at it and not come away at the conclusion that the timing is almost comically villainous Alex in the political world he's a part of do not give a fuck about native peoples absolutely not it's just convenient
Starting point is 00:46:37 to sometimes pretend to care when their slaughter can be used to make a point about your own imaginary victim hood yeah that's all it but it's great that he's paying lip service to it I guess I I mean if that's if you really are saying that right now and you're not then following it up with and so we should invest more in the native American community instead of just being like see they did it and now I'm not going to do anything more yeah like it's it's it's exploitative yeah it's bullshit it is it is so Alex gets done with this segment it wraps up and he doesn't bring up the case sure which is shocking now he comes back from break and he's got a passage from history that's on his mind and I think this is a half thing to read here is about the news
Starting point is 00:47:23 Watson Thomas Paine wrote this in the crisis on the eve of the Revolutionary War in 1775 these are the times that Trimon souls the summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will in this crisis shrink from the service of their country but he that stands by it now deserves the love and thanks of man and woman turning like hell is not easily conquered so Alex is reading a passage from Thomas Paine's pamphlet the American crisis but I think he has the date wrong it wasn't published in 1775 it was first posted in the Pennsylvania Journal on December 19 1776 it was months after the death declaration of independence the pamphlet was basically just war propaganda to get colonists on the side of the Revolutionary War and it's also painfully naive Paine says
Starting point is 00:48:13 quote I I as sincerely wish that our next year's arms may expel them from the continent and the Congress appropriate their possessions to the relief of those who have suffered in well doing a single successful battle next year will settle the whole the Revolutionary War did not end the next year and in fact lasted until 1783 Thomas Paine was the Dick Cheney of his time and this is his they'll greet us as liberators yeah yeah yeah however there is a passage that Alex doesn't read from that pamphlet that I think is pretty applicable to Alex himself Paine is discussing how panic affects people quote yet panics in some cases have their uses they produce as much good as hurt their duration is always short the mind soon grows through them and acquires a
Starting point is 00:48:56 firmer habit than before but their peculiar advantage is that they are the touchstones of sincerity and hypocrisy and brings things and men to light which might otherwise have lain forever undiscovered I feel like this applies pretty well to Alex and his behavior in the past month or so granted the things we've all seen very clearly in the light of this panic his shameless opportunistic sales practices and his complete disregard for consistency or accuracy in reporting those aren't necessarily things that would have lain forever undiscovered but they take on a new level of importance in the context of this outbreak and not to forget his complete and utter disregard for human life well that came to life but I think we had a hint at that that one we knew
Starting point is 00:49:37 but this now that it's you know you can you can have disregard for human life whenever it's imaginary and you're like oh that could be a thing but now that it's real and you're actively advocating for things that will kill people yeah that's that's a little bit of a different story mass yeah also if Alex had read the rest of that pamphlet he would have gotten to the part where Thomas Paine was not so thrilled with militias quote from an excessive tenderness we were unwilling to raise an army and trusted our cause to the temporary defense of a well-meaning militia a summer's experience has now taught us better he goes on to say quote I've always considered militia as the best troops in the world for a sudden exertion but they will not do for a long
Starting point is 00:50:15 campaign and with that I think I agree with Thomas Paine militias are good for I don't know let's say domestic terrorism that does seem like what they're best at a real short and sort of a sort of insurgent terrorist network maybe they're well modeled for that a standing army not so good at short term terrorist bursts I don't know anyway probably do it if they tried my point is that Alex doesn't have a good handle on his source material here but he knows a couple of good passages he can put out that tend to complement his narratives every once in a while so according to him he has a PhD in history and this is the most research show I mean I think one thing that he can pack himself on pat himself on the back about is that he did not claim this
Starting point is 00:50:58 was from Thomas Jefferson so Thomas though Thomas oh that's true that's true maybe maybe he's reading he's reading the quote accurately like it's at least yeah yeah that's what I'm saying yeah I will hand it to him for that that's progress there are low bars yeah it's like when you give a kid a cookie for tying a shoe it's like that's impressive for you for you yeah we need to positively reinforce your behavior so here's a cookie out yeah no kid so now Paul Joseph Watson is coming on and they talk a little bit I think most of it is surrounding the idea that you know Boris Johnson now has coronavirus sure and so they talk about that a tiny bit and then Alex has something real dumb Paul Joseph Watson is in the UK where the prime minister has contracted the
Starting point is 00:51:43 dreaded woot on chai com virus those COVID-19 politically correct ramping up that racism bro coming around saying don't be out in the sun which actually kills COVID-19 actually has your son kills COVID-19 we need a kid is there an attorney general to send a letter for that Alex is lying that sunlight killing the coronavirus I'm going to start selling at sun lamps to people I was worried that he did yeah that's kind of what I was thinking right there I checked the store and he doesn't like is this a vitamin D thing yeah it is true that super concentrated UV light can kill viruses but that's not what you get from being outside even direct sunlight over a long time will not do anything about the coronavirus so there are three kinds of UV light a B and C is the most
Starting point is 00:52:33 prevalent kind that you get outside B is the kind that's damaging to your DNA and causes sun burns and then C is pretty caustic stuff that destroys genetic material but you don't have to deal with it in nature because the ozone in the atmosphere blocks it out and stops it from a frying you yeah and that one's pretty helpful for the continued survival of all life on the it will fuck you up in like a minute yeah anyway UV C is the kind of light that can kill viruses and a lot of places are using that kind of technology for disinfection but it should never be suggested to be used for people it will fuck you up really bad and probably give you cancer yeah anyway Alex is just continuing a string of erroneous statements about cures and preventions for the coronavirus but again like you like
Starting point is 00:53:15 at least he doesn't sell UV lights this I'm telling you he is trying to get a letter from every attorney general I don't think he understands that the problem isn't necessarily like that a lot of people have with the I mean obviously the profiteering makes it worse way worse but from a public health standpoint even if you're not making money off it saying things that are fully wrong and dangerous like just as bad if you're not selling bleach yeah oh man yeah oh boy so Boris Johnson's got the covid and it turns out that even Paul Joseph Watson recognizes that Boris Johnson is real dumb now the prime minister becomes the first world leader in the entire globe to have coronavirus probably something to do with it might have been the fact that he was shaking the hands of coronavirus victims
Starting point is 00:54:04 in hospital three weeks ago probably not the best idea pretty dumb yeah the fact that's why I voted for him the claim that Boris Johnson is the first world leader to contract coronavirus is just not true Bolsonaro tested positive though he claims he took another test and that was negative but he's also a huge liar in an asshole so who knows and he's also claiming it's a giant hoax on top of that I didn't he say it wasn't even real who knows what an asshole even if you leave Bolsonaro off that I know that the Prince of Monaco tested positive for this virus and I only know that because Alex fucking told me so so that's one example there is that Justin Trudeau's wife tested positive so you kind of have to assume that he probably has it to yeah ishach Jahangir the vice president of Iran tested positive
Starting point is 00:54:53 and what about Prince Charles also I know that he's technically not a world leader but Alex thinks he is important ran Paul be more important in this conversation than Boris that's a good call anyway some of these people aren't technically the heads of government but they're all people I would call pretty relevant politically a little bit yeah but no no Boris Johnson is the first the number one absolutely yeah what a I can't believe board so Paul's got an interesting perspective on this and by interesting I was flagrantly racist right also cautious interesting he believes that there are things we need to do I should stay home good but he also has an angle that seems really consistent that's like they're only going to make whites do this okay there we go not oh boy not great all right all right KKK what do you make
Starting point is 00:55:45 of this well there's an argument to be made that we should have overreacted because then if we didn't take it seriously it would have been way worse there's a big problem with a lack of ventilators and hospital beds in the UK and in London one hospital already had an emergency because they ran out of beds with ventilators so there is that problem of a rush of new patients then making it up people who are already ill not able to get treatment so it is a big problem but again going back to these social distancing measures it's all selectively enforced as you said Alex you go into the migrant areas you go into the inner city areas full of urban youth gangs of them still out on the streets nothing happens wow yeah so that's the angle that Paul's going with anecdotally or maybe not even anecdotally I bet Muslims
Starting point is 00:56:36 aren't probably staying in sure sure why not come on so fucking close to getting it everybody on the league he gets he gets like the the those details right no for sure like we should have overreacted more back then because now we're seeing the situation where they're running out of ventilators and people who could have been helped can't be helped yep and it's causing a real problem the overwhelming of the medical system is coming into being so he gets that part right and then what's the next step well deflection blame Muslims there we go I'm not even sure if he's blaming them well that's shifting the conversation towards like let's not focus on that yeah let's focus on the fact that Muslims get away with everything they're just trying to crack down on whites if you were if your argument is we should have done something
Starting point is 00:57:25 before yeah that suggests that the people who didn't do that should have done it and they made a mistake they fucked up let's not dwell on that shitty president no no no no it's more important to focus on the fact that non white urban youths and Muslims got you are going they they're getting away with everything now yeah this story Mike down for this because Paul Joseph Watson I do not believe the story one bit okay this story is fake meanwhile in London yesterday that I happened to look outside of my window on a main road in London and a group of youths turned up and decided to have Alex a rat battle on the street as they were also pissing in the street a group of six of them on a main road in London and of course nothing whatsoever happened but if you walk your dog in a remote location in the peak district in northern
Starting point is 00:58:18 England then you're bad so I know that he does not specify the race of these youths but he is very I think rap battle kind of if you're on if you're on info wars you know how the audience tends to hear this there's coding in the way he's telling the story and I don't believe that story for one fucking second no but if we do accept the premise of Paul's tale I think there's another explanation for everything the police are not everywhere at all times they're only going to be able to respond to things that are brought to their attention in many cases different places will have relatively different sensibilities in terms of what someone might report to the police this basic principle is why when I was young I would never smoke a joint in my car in a good neighborhood there's too many well to do people
Starting point is 00:59:01 with nothing better to do than look out their window and snitch it's entirely possible that the probably imaginary dog walker Paul is talking about was a unfortunate victim of nosy neighbors if any of this is true and Paul understands the need to react in ways that may seem like overreaction in other circumstances and he witnessed this rap battle slash P fight why didn't he call the police wow I mean he's not a snitch I suspect it's because it's made up yeah or because he doesn't really care about this to begin with his only interest in them battling and telling this story is he has the opportunity to build up a racist grievance yep also the story definitely definitely did not happen to spit a few bars Paul spit a few bars Paul let's see let's see how you were I should have joined that rap battle yeah that's what he should have
Starting point is 00:59:51 given the cipher yeah come on man what are you doing yeah so Alex joins in and they they continue this theme and this trend of Muslims get away with whatever they want while the whites get hand packed and doesn't see through this where if you're a Muslim you literally can rate kill piss devocate stab even letting migrants in they're saying right now shows Europe but if you're a citizen and you're in some super rural remote area climbing a hillside there's a drone shouting oldest get off this mountain you piss it's just they want to pack off a weird drum produced in taxpayer population is that Alexa yeah because they know that they're the only people who are going to obey this and a lot of people in this country get off on being obedient to the government it kind of gives them like a sanctimonious ego boom
Starting point is 01:00:39 exactly so there's going to be no into it Muslims will run around raping your daughters and just okay buddy a lot of people get off by beating obedient you know what I'm saying I mean the message could not be more clear in this interview what they're trying to do yeah and it's disgraceful I'm going to be as racist to everyone as possible sure yep so Alex has a big announcement and it's something we sort of mentioned on our last episode I believe and that is that food orders are back on there's a there's a pre-order thing now or that you can have Alex talks about this a little bit this is the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard we've got some good news my patriot supply is partner with us they run our servers and you know take the orders so when you order from the full
Starting point is 01:01:26 spectrum of their food you get the best deal you go right you know in the queue right where your order comes in they had so many orders two weeks ago that they did they had enough food to fulfill those orders but not more food going forward well they got a bunch of food bought and they got two more factories fired up so that's six factories now they have the FDA inspectors in them everything so that's that's that's a big deal to do that in their mission to supply you food and they haven't gone up in price I don't know about that but I would say that this narrative is fucked because where did they get that food from where did they get this this mystery surprise you make it in a factory amounts of food you make it in a factor you build two more factories and then you suck the
Starting point is 01:02:07 food out from the ground like an oil dare I thought the premise was that everyone else is out of food everyone else is out of food everybody's out of one was out of food then like are these suppliers specifically only willing to sell to my patriots if so then they would have had a relationship where and they would have known like oh we can get way way more food now then this wouldn't this this clog in the drain never would have happened like this this bottleneck wouldn't have happened that Alex I just don't believe any of it's not it's not true no it's just not true no but it is one of the things that the food buckets are certainly something like I've mentioned they're compatible to a bunch of different conspiracy panic narratives yeah so if Alex is able to bring that back online
Starting point is 01:02:51 he can still push that even with the virus is no big deal yeah they're going to cause cities to burn and they're going to lock you down even if it's not a big deal you're going to be still in the food bucket gotta have food everybody needs food so so it's probably something that he was working to get to be able to sell because it's so evergreen yeah like I was going back and listening to episodes Bill Cooper show and like he's selling food buckets in the middle of the 90s you know like it's just always going to be something it works with every panic I get a I give it a week before food buckets here coronavirus oh also you remember back in end of February Alex predicted that Roger Stone would be back hosting the war room within a week don't hasn't happened okay no I was so scared that
Starting point is 01:03:34 he's back the word the word prediction dislodge that in my brain I wanted to make a point of like how bad that prediction yeah that one's prove that one's pretty brutal so in this next club Alex retells the timeline of what's happened over the last while and it's really sad because he's just trying to make Trump look good and it's he doesn't even succeed at doing that well you can hear him like really trying to come up with the next something yeah it's like him running across a little bridge or whatever right you know when you're a kid and you're crossing a crick and you're jumping from rock to rock or you can see him trying to find the next rock to jump to Mike Adams on this show was the first guy to really raise the alarm and I agreed with him that clearly Democrats knew it was bad they were
Starting point is 01:04:21 saying it wasn't dangerous to make sure it got here Trump bought into that because Fauci told him he then didn't want to scare people he said well it might kill some folks about you okay then they flipped and said it's all your fault we knew that was coming warned Trump so then he did respond now though he understands if we over panic it'll be too far which is the Democrats plan again all along this has been a very scripted setup Paul you can hear him just like trying to figure out how to complete a sentence there and then that's all that all that's made up and like how does that work with Alex's whole idea about the secret emergency declaration that Trump made don't worry about the secret emergency declaration I was that was Fauci oh everything is Fauci's fault right blame Fauci I want to imagine
Starting point is 01:05:11 for a second to what Alex is saying is true okay even if all of that's true Trump is a horrible president yep Alex is trying to whitewash away all of Trump's very clear fuck ups by insisting that it wasn't Trump Trump is perfect and always does the right thing but he has globalists lying to him and tricking him all the time even if that's true which it's not Trump is a gullible idiot whose inability to understand the situation he's in he's putting people's lives at risk right but he's also a genius because he's tricking them at the same time no by getting good luck yeah even in Alex's best case scenario where Trump is this historic heroic figure he's still wildly unfit to be president he's he's yeah this is if you're that easily influenced and you're the
Starting point is 01:05:55 greatest thing ever then what the what are you talking about Alex yeah he's still an idiot yep so Alex is still pushing the hydroxy chloroquine can help everybody think sure and largely it's still in service of the fact that it supposedly helps put zinc into cells and Alex sells zinc so sure hey word whatever similar word yeah help me sell things so he's mad because some governors have come out and they're not thrilled with people getting unnecessary prescriptions for yeah people killing themselves they're losing control the Democrats are everywhere they've had now 10 governors I saw this morning have ordered all Democrats that no doctor prescribe hydroxy chloroquine there's no way that governors would ever outright ban the prescribing of hydroxy
Starting point is 01:06:46 chloroquine because it's an important medication for people with certain conditions it's not just it's just not appropriate to prescribe for coronavirus cases necessarily important word there certain right Alex is most likely just reporting on a meme that was circulating from Turning Point USA the claim that Nevada governor Steve Cicillac had banned the use of hydroxy chloroquine in governor Cicillac had just issued an emergency regulation that made it so you can't get a prescription for it in outpatient settings if it's for coronavirus right Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer who Trump doesn't like made a similar rule as did Cuomo in New York and Ohio governor Mike DeWine quote authorized the state board of pharmacy to file an emergency rule
Starting point is 01:07:30 which made it so people could not fill hydroxy chloroquine prescriptions unless they had a diagnosis on them from the prescriber and if that diagnosis was coronavirus it had to be confirmed I'm not sure what other states Alex is talking about and Mike DeWine's a Republican so he might just be making this stuff up the reason for these sorts of actions being necessary is that Trump and his dumb friends pretending that his drug was a miracle cure for an active pandemic what they did is it tended to have a made a run on the medication which created a shortage and this is a big problem because while the drug is used to treat and prevent malaria it's also used by people with rheumatoid arthritis and lupus those are
Starting point is 01:08:11 chronic conditions and if people are panicking and running around buying up all the medications that are used to treat them it leaves less medication for the people who actually need it these Republicans both Republican and Democrat are doing the only responsible thing they can do which is restrict the prescribing of this medication as best they can to not do so would create a ridiculous amount of unnecessary suffering for people with arthritis and lupus which is a unattended consequence of the sort of irresponsible behavior that Alex and Trump were behaving in yeah they don't care yeah it really should like whenever he said that if they weren't nice to him he wouldn't take their calls that should have been immediate
Starting point is 01:08:50 like you're gone 25th amendment get the fuck out of here right that's unacceptable that's literally yeah unacceptable shake down yeah no that's evil that's comically evil it's a mess yeah and this sort of thing it's like what you ask yourself the question of like why haven't past presidents said things like hey this hydroxychloroquine is looks like it's going to be a cure why is that irresponsible and you recognize oh because people listen to people in leadership and authority positions yep they take them more seriously than maybe they should be and so people who have no reason to get this medication will go out and try and get the medication it'll lead to shortages and people who need the medication will possibly
Starting point is 01:09:36 be left without yep and like that is why you be careful that I mean there's other reasons there's other reasons like that dude who died in Arizona yeah but like there are there are considerations that like are just completely gone now yeah from the minds of the people who are in positions absolutely of power no they're all insane yeah they're all literally insane they're very clearly making a case for like why did those sort of norms and behaviors that seemed like unnecessary why do people act like that oh that's why that would make way yeah there you go so and our next clip here we find Alex being very mad at Michael Rappaport oh no because Michael Rappaport is said some shit so actor Mike Rappaport has
Starting point is 01:10:25 savagely attacked me before said he wants to you know that I'm ugly that I'm evil that he's so glad I'm being censored all right to imagine being a biological android like this guy a meat suit and by the way they're announcing Hollywood is officially collapsing this virus is a cover for the reset I mean look at that gutter worm and he wants Baron to die Baron Trump well the words of Emperor Palpatine no no no you will die in full disclosure Michael Rappaport is a guy who is a long history of talking shit it's kind of his thing all all Alex is saying you know he's saying that you know Michael Rappaport said that Baron should get coronavirus which according to Alex shouldn't be too big a deal because he
Starting point is 01:11:23 doesn't think it's a big deal no it'll kill you but this is apparently the most severely offensive thing a person could say how dare you how dare you wish harm upon dear leader Rappaport was responding to Trump wanting to open businesses back up and the fuller quote is why don't you send your fucking son Dick Stain Donald Trump Junior big toothed Eric Trump little fucking Baron fucking Ivanka junkyard Jared let them go out there and test the fucking waters let them see if this shit is sweet let them take the cars the trains the buses the Amtrak let them play in the park and if everything's good after five days of them playing in the streets we'll all go back so it wasn't just Baron it was more
Starting point is 01:12:00 of a point about how Trump wants to do this thing that he's largely insulated from the consequences of and the rest of us will pay the price for yes but of course Alex is in the business of selling a grievement to his audience or what better way to say the Dom actor wants to kill Trump's innocent child like you even like it's in my it's in my sentence here this is some dear leadership yeah exactly absolutely you talk you saw my notes no that's the exact response it is absolutely that shit how very very sad very very sad we do not say ill of chairman Mao in this house or his son yeah absolutely not any any perceived attack on the family yeah Alex will present as an attack on the
Starting point is 01:12:40 youngest most he's he's he's done nothing wrong how dare you the children Dan won't somebody think of dear leaders children not their own or anybody else's yeah so Alex gets into complaining more about Bill Ackman that investor who he thinks is short selling the market sure news that come out that he made a bunch of money so he's not mad at Jeff Bezos selling three point seven billion I think he is actually okay good good is mad good but Alex is mad at Bill Ackman people have responded that the probably the reason that he hates Bill Ackman is because Ackman had a negative position on urban life he believed it was a supplement pyramid scheme gotcha and so he's kind of an enemy of those
Starting point is 01:13:28 that sort of marketing right supplement industries MLM guys yeah yeah so that's why he hates Bill Ackman to begin with right but Bill did make a bunch of money recently sure and Alex believes that it's from short selling he has not proved that in any way I read a bunch of articles about this and it turns out what actually happened is that Bill Ackman took out credit default swap insurance on some long positions that his hedge fund held and they ended up paying off pretty well gotcha so the it's not the same thing as short selling yeah yeah and Alex doesn't know the difference I mean it's still financial mumbo jumbo hey man you know I'm not I'm not defending great yeah yeah absolutely I have no idea if any
Starting point is 01:14:07 of the things that people do in the markets are ethical I do not I'm gonna go with no I err on the side of no so I'm not defending Bill Ackman at all but Alex doesn't know the difference between credit default swap insurance and short selling no and so he's just like blah blah blah he's short selling the market short selling is something that that people are at least aware of yeah yeah so Alex gets back to selling his food a little bit but our major food supplier the only big one left that actually has high quality food had to suspend sales be able to catch up and get all your orders out they were able to secure a lot of food they now have and turn on two big factories that are essential services
Starting point is 01:14:49 because a lot of other folks are just getting out of the business it's too volatile but it's their Christian mission to do this it's what they believe in it's too volatile where the biggest company in the United States that has horrible food that's ridiculous that is very posterous when I know that most businesses like to get out when demand is through the roof as high as possible now we got to get out of here look I got into business to hoping to build something and make profit but now there's the opportunity I got to get out of here do it I was I was kidding myself to think I could get into business what was I thinking how dare I try and make money that's comical so they got a huge amount of storable food
Starting point is 01:15:29 while every other major food distributor zero food and they can't handle the heat got to get out absolutely not they're getting out of business fuck it too volatile so so my Patriot supply had to shut down production for a couple of weeks in order to shut down the shut down allowing Alex to sell their exactly and then after that they caught up and they were the only ones able to secure a giant shipment of food they are good at business to probably because they're Christian that sounds right that sounds right their discernment is probably probably yeah so Alex in this next clip talks about how like hey you know I predicted all this that's happening now and so I'm going to predict them more things that are going to
Starting point is 01:16:11 happen in the future and you know I'm always right and this is where we get introduced to a primary source that I think is actually really interesting we don't just cover what's happening now we don't cover what's coming I said three months ago bio weapon attack to bring down the US economy I know how they operate we have two articles here today London Guardian former British Prime Minister says world government needed to get rid of nation states to protect us from coronavirus here's the Rockefeller Foundation ten years ago openly saying in a major think tank that we're going to use a bio release to bring in world government so they're on record with all of this ladies and gentlemen and this is their plan so we know their next move
Starting point is 01:16:55 that it's going to be even more drastic so dig in and get ready get your storeable food today at info or store dot com boom you fuck you fuck you yeah although that one's a good that was pretty good so Alex didn't necessarily predict a bio weapon release unless you consider literally every stray thing he says to be a prediction he was way more focused on the globalist nuking a US city most likely Chicago also the coronavirus isn't a bio weapon so even if that was his prediction it's a dud so Alex references there at the end the Rockefeller Foundation and I was curious what the specific source was every time I've tried to trace down one of his primary sources on this we're going to release a bio weapon to bring
Starting point is 01:17:32 in world government thing it's been a huge disappointment but I never run out of the benefit of the doubt maybe this one will finally be the one that actually Alex read correctly so I went to the video for this episode since he doesn't say what this report is or give any clue as to how to track it down but there isn't a good shot of the piece paper he's holding up which meant that this is a bit of a dead end luckily for me though this is a huge talking point in the conspiracy community online so it's pretty easy to to figure out what this was yeah this is from a May 2010 report from the Rockefeller Foundation titled quote scenarios for the future of technology and international development it's 54 pages
Starting point is 01:18:09 long which is outside of Alex's half paragraph reading limit do it can't do it so I do not believe he's read this quit here's what this document is the people who wrote the report were tasked with analyzing the technological and international development related issues that could come up in the world that could pose a challenge to philanthropic organizations and particularly in the developing world right and the only way to fault solve those was with a bio weapon I assume no oh they recognize that there were certain things that were certainties such as population growth and inner energy interdependence but what the report was most interested in was exploring what they called critical uncertainties the report
Starting point is 01:18:46 has a full list of the uncertainties in the appendix and they identified a bunch things like new innovations or global economic performance those are things that can't really be predicted and each has serious impact on what situation we will find ourselves in in the future however the report authors were tasked with deciding which two critical uncertainties were most central to how things play out they determined that adaptive capacity was one and that it could be a situation where we end up highly adaptive or with a low level of adaptability the other uncertainty that they chose was political and economic alignment which they determined could either be strong or weak you can see how the second one political and
Starting point is 01:19:27 economic alignment is a particular interest to people in philanthropic organizations particularly in developing countries so with these two critical uncertainties selected the team created four scenarios which that represented a dramatized version of what the world might look like in each combination of these outcomes and specifically what role technological innovation would play in each of the worlds they imagined right so they they wargames it yeah yeah they the high adaptability weak alignment scenario was called smart scramble the high adaptability strong alignment scenario is called clever together the low adaptability weak alignment scenario was hack attack and the low adaptability strong
Starting point is 01:20:10 alignment scenario is named lockstep is named fascism basically yes that's what it's named absolutely yeah yeah the the second two are probably hack attack doesn't have a positive it's clear that the ideal solution is clever together or the world you would like to see yeah that's most able to respond to challenges that's the that's the one if you read the report is nothing in it is negative political bias political bias and calling it clever together they're trying to convince us it rhymes though yeah that's true clever together is described as quote a world in which highly coordinated and successful strategies emerge for addressing both urgent and entrenched worldwide issues hack attack is quote an
Starting point is 01:20:55 economically unstable and shock prone world in which governments weaken criminals thrive and dangerous innovations emerge hmm smart scramble is quote an economically depressed world in which individuals and communities develop localized makeshift solutions to a growing set of problems lockstep is quote a world of tighter top down government control authoritarian leadership with limited innovation and growing citizen pushback the websites that push this document is being about the Rockefeller Foundation planning to use a bio weapon to bring in a world government are inherently full of shit because what they're doing is cherry picking lines from the four different scenarios and pretending
Starting point is 01:21:31 it's all one plan however most of it is from the lockstep scenario because that's the one where there's a rise of top down authoritarian systems the authors of this report imagine that an instigating event for that scenario could be a global pandemic where the need for greater social structure to fight an outbreak could be exploited by leaders who want that kind of power it's presented as a not good outcome do you mean like some sort of department of justice wanting to indefinitely detain people without worrying about them going to trial no no no no no okay sorry I was just thinking that you know just random out of the blue just like thoughts that could never possibly
Starting point is 01:22:10 happen it's like I said it's presented as a not good outcome yeah and you don't want this yeah and ultimately in that scenario there's no world government it's only dictators in many countries and some uneasy regional alliances with uneasy populations at the point of uprising yeah that's where that scenario plays out to it doesn't end in a world government now it ends with the government and shambles I believe in rubble and fires conspiracy sites like that the scenario starts with a pandemic but it doesn't end the way they wanted to it just doesn't make the point they want so they take bits and pieces out of each of the scenarios to create a
Starting point is 01:22:45 collage of something that kind of sounds like something they can work with the clever together scenario involves global collective action about climate change so they toss that in there the problem is that literally none of these scenarios involve deploying a bio weapon and none of them result in world government the only way to reach that conclusion is to completely twist the words on the page to the point where you might as well just be rewriting the report to suit your purposes which is what they're doing I don't like what this report says but it does come from a place that I hate so how about I just lie and one of the pieces
Starting point is 01:23:17 of it does mention a bio yeah there we go bio situation close bio weapon close enough for horses use a hand grenade I read over this document and in no way demonstrates that the Rockefeller Foundation admitted that they wanted to release a bio weapon to bring in a world government that's absolutely ludicrous and something I definitely would not expect to hear on the most research show in the world hmm I guess this wasn't the time that Alex had actually read the document correctly but super catch a fragile listic expial it's seeing I will get my hopes up again next time good luck also I wish you the best you
Starting point is 01:23:50 know how I keep mentioning that it's really popular on conspiracy theory sites it's not that popular I was kind of lying it's pop it's not that popular in the context Alex is using it however the most prominent site pushing this narrative is Jim Fetzer's blog hey so it might be the case that Alex is using his old Holocaust denying buddy Fetzer as a source again well even though he's currently being sued for doing that in the sandy hook so okay so you see you say it's fucking dumb look look look look you say it's a bad thing people say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and over
Starting point is 01:24:23 again expecting different results but they haven't met Fetzer he's too good he's not he's too good I should be fair E Michael Jones is also pushing this document so it might be that Alex has found a new Holocaust denier to be a source that is possible hey anti-Semitism is a good fallback plan whenever anything is going bad yeah so as Alex is going out to break he's he cited these this headline in this report and he says this where is my article there is globalist think tank laid out scenario where virus outbreak prompts authoritarian crackdown only get more into this but first your phone calls so
Starting point is 01:24:59 he's going out to break he reads that other headline I think he's meaning to suggest that this globalist think tank is a different story than the one about the Rockefeller Foundation but it's the same headline he just read except it's the info wars right up of the same document of course this one is written by Don Salazar our former Twitter follower and has a lot of the hallmarks of intentional lying for one here's the first paragraph of his article I'm a liar I lie all the time might as well be quote a Rockefeller Foundation report produced ten years ago imagined a viral pandemic is the perfect catalyst to implement
Starting point is 01:25:34 quote tighter top-down government control and more authoritarian leadership eerily similar to what's unfolding during our current corona virus outbreak they also included that celebrities would all sing imagine that isn't that isn't there is not the report doesn't imagine a viral pandemic is a perfect catalyst to implement tighter top-down government control and more authoritarian leadership that's incredibly unfair characterization of the document because that framing suggests that they were trying to find a way to implement authoritarian leadership and the virus was the perfect way to do it instead of
Starting point is 01:26:07 actively looking for a way to stop the authoritarian leadership that's just a complete misreading of the point of the document I'm not sure necessarily that it is actually even about stopping authoritarian leadership just an observation discussing if that is the world that ends up coming into being what are the challenges that will exist right from a philanthropic developing world situation and most importantly what are the ways in which technological innovation will be used in these four different types of society we find ourselves in right so that's really what the report is about it's not about
Starting point is 01:26:44 crushing the authoritarian system sure it is also most definitely not about how do we bring it into be right right right ridiculous yeah it's it's easy to forget that the Rockefeller and feller Foundation is a charity yeah and not a evil organization well you hear Alex say it so many times so it must be true yeah right so the goal like I like I touched on there is discussing how technological progress would likely develop in these four distinct scenarios and the one that a dawn and all of the right wing dumb dumps have glommed on to is the one that happens to be about how technology would possibly progress in a world where we
Starting point is 01:27:16 have a low level of adaptability and a strong alignment between politics and the economy though the one that they're actively trying to bring about well Trump seems to be into it yeah the world the authors envision envisioned with those two qualities would be one with a more authoritarian bend to it and the pandemic setup was a creative flourish of how they decided to give that scenario a backstory these scenarios are meant to be thought provoking and meant to prompt a conversation and as such they're written hyper dramatically each one is giving a given a needlessly intense backstory about how the circumstances of
Starting point is 01:27:48 the world it depicts came into being right for instance the hack attack scenario starts like this quote devastating shocks like September 11th the southeast Asian tsunami of 2004 and the 2010 Haiti earthquake had certainly primed the world for sudden disasters but no one was prepared for a world in which large scale cat catastrophes would occur with such break breathtaking frequency the years 2010 to 2020 were dubbed the doom decade for a good reason the 2012 Olympic got bombing which killed 13,000 was followed closely by an earthquake in Indonesia killing 40,000 a tsunami that almost wiped out Nicaragua
Starting point is 01:28:26 and the onset of the West China famine which caused a once in a millennium drought linked to climate change the goal of this scenario is to create a world that is full of chaos where the power of governments is weakened and adaptability is low this is the story they decided to use to launch into that and it's built on some real things like the disasters that happened prior to the reports writing in 2010 and then they augment it with fictitious real-world events like the Olympic bombing that didn't happen in 2012 I was going to say I didn't remember that one no the things that they're used as pieces of
Starting point is 01:29:00 the world they're building feels sort of real though because they're plausible there was a bomb at the Olympics in 1996 Indonesia had a gigantic nine plus earthquake in 2004 left over 200,000 people dead Nicaragua was the site of a notable tsunami in 1992 China does have a history of severe drought all of these things are not real to the people who are writing the report but they're things that could happen in the real world yeah any of those things could happen but if they did it would have no bearing on the intention or predictiveness of the writing of the report right the same is true of the virus pandemic that's the
Starting point is 01:29:37 setup for the scenario that their conspiracy right wing is obsessed with it is a viral outbreak which relies on the H1N1 pandemic from the previous year 2009 in this case and establishing it as a detail the report says that China would be successful in squashing the outbreak in their country by instituting a harsh lockdown this isn't a prediction of the present as much as it is a reflection of what they did in 2002 and 2003 during the SARS outbreak they didn't have to go they didn't have to go as far in the outbreak in 2002-2003 but according to Lancet quote China best exemplified this large-scale
Starting point is 01:30:14 quarantine by declaring epidemic zones and placing people under collective quarantines and villages cities and institutions the stringent control measures included school closures and closures of all universities and public places as well as the cancellation of a public holiday in May in May 2003 China locked down Beijing and closed more than 3500 public places in an effort to curb community spread the report is using things that have happened in the past to give life to the scenarios they're creating in order to discuss the issues of technological innovation and how it relates to the central question of the
Starting point is 01:30:48 report which is literally quote how might technology affect barriers to building resilience and equitable growth in the developing world over the next 15 to 20 years it's clear yeah the way a Don Salazar is writing about this report makes me think that he has read it which means that he's intentionally lying about it one of the excerpts he uses in the article really makes me feel confident that he's he's read it in the article he says quote governments have a this is quoting from the report from the report not from well his article quoting from the right right right gotcha quote governments
Starting point is 01:31:21 have varying degrees of success in policing internet traffic but those efforts nevertheless fracture the worldwide web the scenario envisions here's the full quote from the report quote driven by protectionism and national security concerns nations have created their own independent regionally defined it networks mimicking China's firewalls governments have varying degrees of success in policing internet traffic but those efforts nevertheless fracture the worldwide web in the report this is not a good thing the report is literally about how technology can be used to
Starting point is 01:31:53 help the developing world and in this scenario one of the predicted technological developments is a destruction of the worldwide nature of the web right and cult countries creating their own isolated and insulated internet which is going to hurt innovation because they're not allowed to share it outside low adaptability you got it no one who's read this report could possibly read that description of tech in this scenario and think that the authors of the report considered this a desirable outcome or something that they would be working towards you legitimately have to be
Starting point is 01:32:23 lying to reach that conclusion which adana is doing and Alex is then repeating that's what they don't say Dan they have to release their plan and act like it's not their plan in order to make sure that you know that it's their plan which allows them to carry out their plan yeah because as dark demons they have to agree it's it's like you you can't let a vampire in your house unless you invite them in it's the exact same thing with the globalists if you can't enact a global pandemic if you don't first tell people that you're going to I mean I think Alex probably does believe that
Starting point is 01:32:58 I think he does yeah I mean to to to reach the conclusions that they're reaching from this ridiculous I understand why Alex is reaching that conclusion that's because he's just reading these dumb blogs that say this right but people like a Don Salazar are clearly reading this document in order to cherry pick these quotes from it so he has to either be unable to read on a adult level possible certainly yeah I don't think that's the case though but you would have to be able to not engage with what the point of this document is at all right or you have to intentionally be lying about it and or
Starting point is 01:33:33 both to an extent but I think probably the latter I think it's all just complete lies yeah especially when your boss is not interested in things that won't help him and his narratives yeah he's you're not he's not going to be like oh read this and write me up something and do it with whatever your conclusions are he's starting from a place of like I need this to be evil a Don can you cover this responsibly for me yeah can you do a good job on this one like really don't don't go off the reservation and get to get real don't get some who are you who are you what did you do with Alex hey look I want you
Starting point is 01:34:07 to go buy the book on this one all right if you need help call someone at the Washington Post okay I know you've never taken a journalism class before in your life but this time this time a Don you got to step it up yeah ridiculous bananas so anyway Alex gets into talking about how Trump is real and then this gets real weird okay Trump's real folks why do you think they're so damn scared but I'm gonna explain something because he's insane a rattlesnake's real a black widow's real oh a rose is real what a piece of gold's real hmm a Beethoven symphonies real there's good and bad in the world but Trump's his own way and he
Starting point is 01:34:47 really calls the shots you know how pissed the globalist are that there's a dude in there that isn't out to get America just like Vladimir Putin what Putin's a Russian what's happening Russia he likes the Orthodox Church he doesn't like the globalist and the left that is as out of nowhere as it seems wait he what that that was like a real out of what do we have to give it up to the Somali pirates what is happening well I mean it's not uncommon for Alex just to he prays on Putin but like it's it was that was even jarring for me yeah for as someone who's heard Alex praise Putin for a while that was still like what what what are you
Starting point is 01:35:28 doing what's going on what's the anyway and if he calls the shot if Trump calls the shots then he has to take responsibility for what happens because globalists lied to him don't worry about it no but he calls the shot yeah yeah but you can only call shots when globalists aren't lying to you but the but the but the but stop that fair enough I am I also think that like being like a man Trump's real black widows are real rattlesnakes are real what does that mean so you're saying that Trump might kill us yes yes there are good and bad he's real unlike fake things which won't kill you I don't know I guess I would
Starting point is 01:36:09 rather us like a slick fake politician who's good at policy and like means well then a guy who fifty he's real but fifty fifty chance he will kill all of us yeah yeah yeah there's an even and with a rose you know like hey thorns will cut you but also it's beautiful on top there's a certain metaphor I don't crave authenticity that badly okay sure sure I have a guaranteed income and universal health care but this guy this guy is fake as shit this guy pretends to like various things yeah doesn't really he doesn't really it's just to look good in public he said he was in the first Radiohead show and that's fucking not
Starting point is 01:36:51 true bullshit he guy he I was I was on the bandwagon with Radiohead before he was he's a faker I mean authenticity in friends and like associates and I mean even maybe like artists you like yeah is probably a conversation that's worth having I'm not sure it's the it's not my top thing in a politician you know I think when you when you say you know obviously I don't want to full on liar right but well like the when you're like oh man you know I gotta be honest I like this guy because I know where he stands you know that is also a I don't like this guy because I know where he stands just because I know where you
Starting point is 01:37:34 stand doesn't mean that I don't want you to run as far away from me as you possibly can it's very strange it's disgusting so Alex has a philosophy that he explains in this next clip it's very weird Hollywood hates you the left hates you the globalist want to dominate you they are psychotics and so people come to me and I only talk about this people understand philosophy and this is the winning philosophy here we go it's a spirit they hate it overcomer and they go what's it like to be persecuted oh you're attacked so much oh we feel so sorry for you and I tell friends and family I say knock it off I
Starting point is 01:38:14 am blessed all I want solicitors to keep us in the fight so it's I need your money I just want money I have a philosophy and it's simple whatever it is they're doing is bad and I want your money yeah that actually is it's an in-depth philosophy yeah that is he I like who he's presenting this like is a philosophy that I only talk to people who get it and then he says something he says all the fucking time which is hey people come up to me and they say how are you doing under this attack I say I love it that's not some kind of weird no plays close to the best he only tells that to people who understand philosophy talks about
Starting point is 01:38:47 all the goddamn time yep so anyway Alex starts freaking out about the devil sure it's not what to fight evil the more you do it the stronger you get and the more high on the fight you get in a good way of love and justice but it's not a it's not a feeling of power that we're overpowering the globalist but it is power now is the times the power they could ever imagine but was restrained and then you realize it's nothing but a micron reflection of the creator and then you feel the awesome presence of God and then the power doesn't matter anymore because you're on your knees and to be on your knees before the creator in all
Starting point is 01:39:26 is to be ready to fight the devil because the devil's a joke that'll be brushed aside but the devil will be brushed aside by those of us who will be thrown against Satan and broken and it is a real blessing to have God pick you up and just throw you headlong into Satan's armies there's not a better feeling like a rock I don't like pain but that's the type of pain I'll take if God helps me politically take out a million or two million of the globalist whoa the number did you release COVID and my eyeballs gouged out of my teeth ripped out and my blood sucked out by a giant black spire I've seen the evil
Starting point is 01:40:11 I've gone through it and all I found was victory on the other side I don't think you made it to the other side buddy the enemy for all the temporal attacks has sent spiritual attacks against me and in the name of Jesus it all instantly departs and is vanquished in his weak but I've been shown the depths of Satan by the creator you have been dropped like a bath escape into a sea of pure Satanism to actually be able to know the enemy's mind and to be able to fight the enemy and only now am I beginning to have the strength to even step up into the armor of truth and justice with the sword of God to bring down the enemy that
Starting point is 01:41:04 pause was necessary yeah he wanted a you wanted a better sword out of that that wasn't like really all that interesting and there's not a whole lot to even discuss about that but I wanted to play that to like help the audience feel this episode there's minutes more of this rant that he's at the middle of like really weirdly just like I have been thrown into the depths of evil I like that I think he listened to my televangelist episode I feel kind of proud he got the wrong lesson but I like it yeah also when he says that like he's been attacked in the real world and also spiritual world and all the spiritual
Starting point is 01:41:43 things go away in the name of Jesus spiritual is easy well yeah I mean the court ones aren't going to go they are not going to go away I like the spiritual cherish those spiritual victories because the rest are not going to be great temporal victories are going to escape you so Alex will eventually be sucked dry by a giant spider I think you like his family is probably his kids aren't going to school I don't know if they're homeschooled or if they go to public school I've heard him say both yeah in the past so I have no idea what the real situation is but maybe the family is around the house maybe they watched
Starting point is 01:42:13 Wild Wild West he's obsessed with this big giant spider thing but spider is going to suck him dry and apparently all of his enemies sure they have already been sucked dry by already there's a spider on the loose and how is he our enemies still attacking him if they've been because there are husks souls live inside my bad so you look at the hunchback devils that serve Satan and how their eyes are dim and how they have no humanity in them and realize we hate them those are like little bugs in a spider's web that are just husk they're dead they were already sucked out they're already gone they live in the
Starting point is 01:42:49 spiders belly down forever they believe the spider was their mother was there to give them milk they believe the spider was going to give them power they believe they're going to be a spider but all they ever were was another slave taken away from God's light who by free will like a child tricked out of their backyard to get in that white ice cream truck to be taken away forever into the spider to have their souls stolen forever good movie and to meet oblivion it's a sad thing indeed we're gonna go to break I'm gonna stop pontificating we're gonna go right to your phone calls we come back in two minutes and there's
Starting point is 01:43:32 just so much more of this I mean look at these robin I knew about this you knew about this it's in films but I'm like hey the globalists have white papers well they say they're gonna use a bio attack to bring in World God against authoritarianism ten years ago Rockefeller Foundation big article up on info wars dot com so this is that same Rockefeller report yeah and it really raises the question of why are you just talking about this now I mean if he's been talking about the idea that the globalists you know they're gonna attack everybody and blah blah blah and all this to bring in a martial law or whatever
Starting point is 01:44:10 right but he's now he hasn't talked about this specific document well that's because they were ten years behind and it turns out they're not ten years behind any more he's he's newly very obsessed with this document that's been around a while I think maybe just found about it by reading Jim Fetzer's blog anyway it's just like this is sloppy and like even if he'd been talking about this forever even if you'd been talking about this specific reference the source forever it doesn't prove what he's saying it does absolutely not he is sad this is a this is the most researched show his is yeah totally history well he's
Starting point is 01:44:50 researched that fucking spider he knows a bit about you know I the thing that I despise about his theology is that he is always so obsessed with physical appearance that demons are always physically ugly when it's like literally it's just so much as like you're going to be tempted by beautiful things well yeah those are the ones that are scary that theme does play out in a lot of old texts yeah kind of a big deal yeah so Alex hasn't read this Rockefeller report I'm certain of it and the way he discusses some of the details like he's reading off a little bit like it's so clear that he has
Starting point is 01:45:30 unfamiliar with this text it's called lockstep a world of tighter top-down government control and more authoritarian leadership with limited innovation and growing citizen pushback Rockefeller Foundation so that's a big tell to me that all Alex has done is skimmed Don Salazar's article yep because if he'd read the actual report he would know that limited technological innovation and growing citizen pushback are examples of bad elements of the lockstep scenario that they do not want that it would
Starting point is 01:46:08 make right it would make philanthropic work in developing world right more difficult it would be a situation where you wouldn't be able to help people in a way that is your mission right so he doesn't think their mission is to help people right in his estimation their mission is to destroy the world right so it makes it makes a certain sense for him to believe that lockstep is their plan because they want all of that it's stupid I guess it's dumb that's stupid and it actually helps Alex to have not read it because then he doesn't have to answer that question because it would be very difficult that would be a hard one
Starting point is 01:46:42 even me trying to imagine how Alex would as a joke have a difficult time that would be a part of it yeah so Alex gets back from break and he has a complaint he goes to some calls I'm not entirely sure if this was in a call but he has some complaints about what's going on no no no doubt the globalist banks are and Mike Adams made that point yesterday when he was hosting or was it Wednesday the globalist banks are nationalizing everything they're taking over the planet right now using these crises I totally agree with you so Alex is mad about globalist banks trying to nationalize companies in the midst of a crisis I have
Starting point is 01:47:15 some bad news about what his buddy Trump said the Associated Press reported on March 19th about Trump's press conference where he was discussing the bailouts for industries like hotels and airlines quote asked if his if he supported the federal government moving to take an equity stake in some companies Trump said quote I do I really do also in that article they discuss how Attorney General Bill Barr had commented that the US should consider taking a controlling stake in Nokia or Erickson to be able to compete with China's Huawei I'm not really sure I necessarily oppose some nationalization of industries but Alex
Starting point is 01:47:50 definitely should be against it yeah you think he was furious when the Obama government took a stake in General Motors after bailing out the auto industry so I have no idea why he isn't just as upset about Trump indicating that he wants to do the same thing except I do the reason is because Alex is a principle this hack his hero does all the things he says the villains do and in order to continue pretending as racist ass idiot hero is a hero you just pretend someone else is doing it Trump says he wants the government to take a controlling stake in airlines Alex reports at his globalist banks nationalizing everything yeah
Starting point is 01:48:22 there you go it's easy it's very simple it's not hard though he's just it's like so goddamn dumb it's like he writes down all the stuff that he hates that Trump is doing and then just crosses out Trump and is like all right what are we going to what are we going to mad libs in here this time I'm going to go with Fauci did it yeah so I was good gets called from Australia and this dude is maybe my hero okay and not because I agree with what he's saying but this guy knows how to use whatever window of time you have on info wars I'm a musician obviously out of work now they close down all the pubs here and I'm also a
Starting point is 01:49:01 two-star executive with the infobox health team too as well so I've been honored to be using the products and you know helping out info wars as well at the same time absolutely the great young Gemini products and informers health com are very popular in the land down under that's awesome yes correct and if you want to get in contact with me I'm involved with Alex and Ted Anderson we can support and what Alex is doing in contact me at bookaboo.com so he is in the MLM oh but he's not promoting Alex's products necessarily he's trying to drive the traffic to his yeah distribution tendrel of the MLM that's
Starting point is 01:49:42 very clever smart I like that yeah that is that how is that not what all the other MLM people have been doing what do you mean I mean why aren't they calling in and being like hey promoting Alex's MLM by virtue of funneling them to themselves exactly yeah that's brilliant it's a win-win that is brilliant yeah yeah so not only does this I mean being in a MLM is incredibly stupid no but this is a good strategy to do it yeah make the most yeah yeah it's what they call in wrestling getting all your shit in yeah it's like you got a 30 minute match we got to get all the moves and let's get in there just gotta it's going
Starting point is 01:50:17 to be a short period of time just do the moves bang bang bang do the moves get out and so this caller like he's getting his shit in like listen to this this is also what he manages to get in and I'd love to give a shout out to my friend Nick Raven from conspiracy Oz he's been doing a podcast for 10 plus years I was a guest on his podcast last week and and I'd say end game is your fine bottle of wine he is too good too good too good Alex can't be mad because he plugged in game at the end but because of that he gets away with plugging his friends podcast yeah he had he had like I love it five he had five seconds to get
Starting point is 01:50:58 that in there to buy himself another 25 seconds basically like he was doing the podcast thing he was like oh I know what I know it's going to be up and end game is incredible and now I'm going to promote something else of mine yeah that's that's good good stuff yeah so Alex gets another caller and this caller actually is a really interesting thing because it gets disrupted in the middle and like you'll forget that he has this guy on hold I guarantee it but this caller is terrified okay because he got a letter I live in the middle of nowhere Montana Alex and it's the Sanders County election administrator in my father's
Starting point is 01:51:41 93 years old he's a World War two vet and I spent the last 14 years of my life taking care of him good job Dave and this is not to me notice of polling place election and option for mail ballot how dare they scan this and I'm going to send his show tips you know your guys I just wasn't ready you know always to vote David night because the crew is great but David tends to break a lot of the whistleblower stuff we get in a lot of the tips he's really Johnny on the spot this is a whistle blow yeah he got a letter but you also if I if you listen to his story it's an option yeah to mail in ballot yeah absolutely whistle blowing
Starting point is 01:52:34 that's how they do it that's insane I heard that as like what's what weren't you ready for he just wasn't ready for it mail in balding what is wasn't ready what is the story wait until there's an election day holiday man can you imagine how unready this guy is going to be for that oh it's going to be real bad so Alex are you saying I don't have to work and I can vote now Alex has to go to break so they get cut off and when he comes back from break he has now learned that he has been kicked off the Android right right right and it turns out that that is breaking in the middle of the show but because of that he now has to
Starting point is 01:53:15 pretend that that stuff earlier wasn't in response to him losing this appeal he has to sort of pretend that it's like he's going to update his narrative mid stream well no it's more like he now has that awareness although obviously he was responding to it earlier right right so he's able to bring it up now because he's going to he's sort of pretending that they're all piling on sure in the middle of his show man you want to talk about Twilight Zone folks they just announced their monthly thing that I'm losing lawsuits because they filed like 30 of mommy there's still like six of them
Starting point is 01:53:51 active and we're battling it all in the appeals court before it ever even gets in front of their kangaroo courts or juries and they're pissed about that and so it's always Jones losing Jones losing and most of the time I've been lost to lawsuits there's not even a lawsuit they're talking about sometimes Jones lost a lawsuit for the book nobody died at sandy hook I'm not in the book never you know never read the book my lawyers have the AP just as I lost a suit no because I'm a loser not a winner that's such winners so now he's able to respond to this a little bit because there's another story and now he's
Starting point is 01:54:23 pretty mad yeah and so he gets to talking about getting kicked off the android and I got to be honest with you Jordan there is no better way he could have played this okay this is a work of art all right I'll buy it when I read this new article that I'll cover after I take calls Google Bands in fours Android app they already banned the apple and it was number one in news Google Bands in fours Android app over coronavirus claim and then it quotes the video I got banned for with David Ike yesterday where I said this is an anti-human system and under the Georgia Guidestones under world government they want to reduce world
Starting point is 01:55:09 population to zero and all of you that serve this are being deceived when you think you're going to be the few humans left whatever this anti-human not human force is the Bible talks about wants to kill still destroy they quote that and say that is coronavirus this information so my religious belief that the devil's real they actually say isn't allowed you got to read this man this is great wow that's that's awesome that is fucking stupid it's stupid but that is the best way yeah yeah no turn that into a religious freedom totally that's yeah that's what you got to do that's I mean it's not true but that is the right
Starting point is 01:55:48 plan that is so the headline he's reading is from wired and the article is just a little different than he's presenting it and fairness it does discuss his weird alien slash devil beliefs saying quote in the video in question Joan says that quote everybody dies under the new world order except maybe one tenth of one percent that believe that they're going to merge with machines that have made deals with this interdimensional thing that gave them all the technology you can't make a deal with these aliens okay that the Bible tells you about and you can get off the planet Alex wants to put down as concrete
Starting point is 01:56:20 that is religious belief is that there's evil aliens that serve an interdimensional thing that gives away technology I guess that's a Christian day I guess that's his choice that's what he wants I'm not going to judge him for it either way the very next sentence in the article is quote elsewhere in the video Jones claims that natural antivirals exist to treat the novel coronavirus there we go that's the one that they're more interested in buddy when the headline is about how the coronavirus misinformation was what caused the ban that's the really important part of the article which is why Alex pretends here that it
Starting point is 01:56:52 doesn't exist the stuff about being afraid of demon aliens is really just in that article to make fun of Alex yes but again I have to say this is a great play for Alex it's completely baseless and he's just making stuff up but his audience almost certainly believe that he's being persecuted for his deeply Christian belief in demon aliens who give you technology also Alex's app never went to number one on iTunes who's number one in the trending section briefly yeah so this isn't going to work because Alex accidentally reads the rest of the article he hasn't read why did he do that hasn't read the whole thing at this point so
Starting point is 01:57:24 he eventually realizes oh that's not what they're saying yeah but it's a really good initial thing and he probably should have stuck with it he shouldn't have kept reading yeah why would you do that no it was it was a mistake got your deflection call it yeah so he eventually is like they're just mad because I said quinine like in tonic is good for you like okay whatever they it becomes much worse like it's boring it's lame yeah like this is my defensive my my religious right to believe in demon aliens yep and you're suppressing me for it that's the stuff that's the better one that'll cut around all kinds of logical thinking
Starting point is 01:57:59 yeah you get that in front of religious people and they'll be like I can't think any like there's no rationality yeah so Alex before he accidentally reads the rest of this piece he touches back on the sandy hook sanctioned sure situation and it's just a fake story we didn't even appeal some sanctions the Democrat judge did his best friends with the bloody on the appeals court at the local appeals court not the Supreme Court were you a fucking kindergartener and we didn't even appeal sanctions that if we lose the case down the road we would have to you know pay for some legal fees or something they just recycle that story
Starting point is 01:58:39 again and go Jones has to pay more legal fees they report on the same legal fees every couple weeks like you just think it's the same story well you haven't paid him yet I call it and you keep appealing not true and losing you're the one but I was checking that latest thing is the press is calling me during the break let me type my name into Google oh the popular five-star rated info wars app is banned that wasn't in the article no and then you read the the offending material and it says because Jones said that there are humans on the planet that have met a deal with extraterrestrials to set up a kill grid
Starting point is 01:59:34 and take out humanity and I'm banned for that why would you ban somebody for that because it didn't but it's still that's still what he's presenting and that's good stick with this yeah but he even has to realize it's too much bullshit you can't even like let this stand which is which sucks I want the Alex that actually is like fuck it I said it I'm sticking with it yep but like I said he accidentally starts reading the article and he's like ah fuck yeah you can't make a deal with these aliens okay that the Bible tells you about and ever get off the planet stop stop reading elsewhere in the video Jones claims
Starting point is 02:00:13 that the natural antivirals exist to treat the novel coronavirus and deflated bump bump bump whoops selling vitamin C I mean I got products it's in what it's on the go back to the religious shit saying it's promising or zinc hey now you're defensive you lose yep or what's in tonic quinine that that's what that's what's called a tonic is so boring now now getting really defensive about how his religion is based on alien demons and they give away technology and people take DMT to commune with the demons like yeah if you wanted to really go hard in that lane go in that's good yeah stick around for that this
Starting point is 02:01:02 show will turn into fucking project Camelot in no time oh yeah but now you're retreating back to these waters of like quinine is actually good yeah it's like I like tonic it's so boring and standard and he gets into like but I'll say I generally as a whole not interested in it though there is one angle that Alex takes that I think is pretty good and that is all these people out there that are trying to tell you that chloroquine is not the miracle cure they're trying to extinguish your hope oh boy which is like CPAs man it's a really interesting angle and a bad one that's how the censorship works folks and now you can't
Starting point is 02:01:44 even say that hey there's hope and you have all these governors saying doctors can't prescribe the hydroxy chloroquine because they don't want you to have hope the Democrats Democrats don't want you have hope they don't want you now it's not going to help anything so there's a chance it could but it's not proven right right and other people need the medication right things are proven right and shortages because of blind baseless hope dangerous hope perhaps yeah I'd say yeah and it's not Democrats Mike DeWine's a Republican grow up it's all Democrats and if he's doing it that means he's a secret Democrat damn I'm sure Alex would say
Starting point is 02:02:33 that anybody who doesn't do the things that I specifically want to do yeah are my enemies so this is how Alex responds to this news of the android thing and it's like it's so promising with the religious freedom angle and then it just deflates and it's boring you can feel him deflate to me a little bit you and he went and oh shit yeah and it's so clear that like he hadn't read it before he did on air yeah God just do better yeah he's not a confident reader no certainly not nor do I have confidence in his reading no so he rambles a bit about this sort of around the same themes like I didn't even appeal they're just fake stories about my my
Starting point is 02:03:10 sanctions oh hey you can I like quite nine I don't sell it who cares now it's a long ramble yeah I imagine but there is a guy on hold holy shit I did forget I swear to God I was like I'm gonna keep this in my mind there's a guy on hold during this whole thing who's scared about a letter he did that and I literally I hate you so Dave is still on hold and we get back to Dave come on Dave we got two minutes to break going back to Dave Dave you were holding over so just so you're 94 year old World War two vet father he gets this thing and something he gets this mail in power he gets this call to come vote he gets this this I
Starting point is 02:03:56 guess a voter guide or whatever it is and you got something else tell us what happened hey Alex yeah alright this is an envelope dated March 25th we got him what live in the middle of nowhere Montana okay wait is he mad that the postal service works no no he just thinks that there's a conspiracy sure about offering mail-in ballot options to people that is how they're going to steal the 2020 election gotcha it's inevitable but here he talks about that a little bit more and then I'll explain why this is done I have power of attorney so I get to open his mail they didn't send one to me by the way
Starting point is 02:04:38 they sent one to my father is that cuz he can't get out basically it's registered you're sovereign citizen of the states that you know I want to mail in ballot because I'm scared of the coronavirus oh yeah yeah that's good that there's a huge demand for this so they can get it passed and that states begin prep for mail-in voting and presidential election then they pull his ballot out that's signed and they just stick theirs in yeah that's their that's their secret weapon so you want to know a fun fact in 2008 when Obama won the presidency 2.4 million absentee ballots were cast in 2016 when Trump won 8.2 million
Starting point is 02:05:20 were cast the number were tripled in those years and yet somehow the votes weren't all secretly stolen by Dems as Alex seems to think mail-in ballots are set up to be these fucking idiots are talking like today was the first day they heard about absentee voting yeah how do they think the troops vote their votes are stolen by Democrats did you know that 97% of troops overseas vote for Democrats I don't know about that I didn't so these are things that have existed for a long time and work totally fine without any indication of any kind of fraud issues suggesting that we use mail-in voting to help keep the election
Starting point is 02:05:55 on pace is a very good idea that would work every indication from states like Oregon Washington and Colorado bear this out this caller lives in Montana and guess what in the 2016 election 64.6% of all votes cast were cast by absentee mail-in or early voting Trump won Montana with just over 56% of the vote the conspiracy here is incredibly stupid but it's important to remember that it doesn't matter if the conspiracy makes sense they just needed to feel good in order for it to work yep the goal here is to invalidate the result of the 2020 election in case Trump loses yep there's a very good chance that we'll see an
Starting point is 02:06:31 increase in write-in and absentee ballots which is a good angle to build a narrative on it feels like mail-in ballots would be easier to steal and fake because neither this caller nor Alex know anything about the absentee voting process because it feels that way they can convey that feeling people who are into this kind of propaganda aren't looking into things so they won't ever ask themselves if these feelings are based on any kind of reality and the kernel of doubt will linger and grow this is legitimately just a wholesale repeat of the 10 million undocumented undocumented immigrants voted as just about to bring
Starting point is 02:07:03 that up that's why same thing that's why trump didn't win the popular vote just yeah sure he won the electoral college but he also would have won the popular vote probably by the largest margin in history yeah if it weren't for those undocumented immigrants voting yeah there always needs to be an angle and these sorts of narratives are perfect if trump loses you now have an excuse for why he actually won and you don't have to feel bad yep if trump wins you get to pretend that not only he won he overcame a billion write-in votes or whatever yep there's no downside to playing a strategy like this except that anyone who
Starting point is 02:07:33 knows anything can easily recognize what you're doing but it doesn't matter because it'll work with your audience and these guys it's amazing they are both like no matter what is going on including if they are the ones actively carrying out voter suppression to steal an election that is them like we're stealing and I also there are some cases of people who are working at polling stations who have tested positive from fraud and oh yeah absolutely the concerns here are pretty legitimate yeah no I when I I went to vote and there were hundreds of people crammed into a small space and we still you know it's
Starting point is 02:08:18 it's unclear yeah what sort of consequences could come or could have come from that yeah they're already done yep so Alex now gets down to talking to he has a guest who runs a gun shop in Austin or in Texas somewhere and he's he's not happy about the guns not being considered essential businesses during the shut down Michael Cargill's got to be a good friend of mine he got me getting my concealed carry many years ago and he has a great gun shop and training center here in Austin Central Texas gunworks.com many of you are familiar with him he's been on all the shows here and been part of some documentaries we've done Central Texas Gunworks.com the mayor came out unconstitutionally
Starting point is 02:09:00 and ordered gun shops and the manufacturing facility shut down but the liquor stores could stay open and things like that and looking at the federal law that wasn't there so he said no everybody else basically submitted and now he's got a letter and in a moment I can show you both on television after you read it it's a letter from the Texas Attorney General so the way Alex wants this narrative to sound is that they're targeting gun shops to close them down but that's not true you could do this with any type of store if you wanted to you could like you could just play games if you're like a big car guy you could complain that dealerships are closed if you're a gambler you could complain about casinos and no matter
Starting point is 02:09:40 what you choose to complain about you can always say but what about liquor stores they're keeping liquor stores and pot shops open marijuana shops are being kept open because for a lot of people that's straight up medicine you can pretend all you want that it's just kids going to get high but one of the main reasons it's become legal in a number of states is that there are people with compelling medical reasons to have weed closing pot shops would be bad for these people and the way pot shops are set up lend themselves to easily incorporating social distancing it's required to operate safely they're allowing pharmacies to remain open Dan that's disgusting what is a better prescription than a gun as for liquor stores
Starting point is 02:10:16 if you closed all the shops that were considered liquor stores you would seriously cut off a lot of people's access to their food supplementation not everyone lives in places where it's convenient to go to a full-on grocery store and if taking public transit is not encouraged in these circumstances you have a situation where it's even less accessible a lot of people in the country who lie on corner stores and liquor stores that also sell food items to satisfy their shopping needs so closing them would be a fucking disaster yep they are very much necessary so those two arguments don't really work nope as for guns no one's forcing states or even cities to deem gun shops essential or unessential businesses that's a decision that's left to
Starting point is 02:10:54 the specific areas in question even the notorious left-wing California Governor Gavin Newsom said that the decision about keeping gun shops open was up to local sheriffs states have discretion about how they want to deal with this and if Alex thinks that Texas gun stores are being targeted then the only person he can complain about is his old friend Governor Abbott it doesn't matter though since on the same day this episode came out Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton released a statement that gun shops were considered essential businesses so they're exempt from the shutdown ultimately this segment is pointless and the fucking dude he's talking to Michael Cargill even brings up Ken Paxton's that's you can't so they're complaining about
Starting point is 02:11:33 gun shops being considered unessential while discussing how the Attorney General said that they are cool cool great work guys yeah nonsense it's not but it's just artificial agreement it's nonsense yeah so we've one last clip and it's Alex complaining about getting kicked off the app and I really wish he was still talking about his religious belief in aliens it doesn't make me mad that they're doing this to me it's that they're doing it to all of us and now in live time censoring people on Facebook Twitter the censoring what you can say what words you can print versus the N word now it's what mother and father on entrance forms for happening because come on now don't have a mother and father so don't say what baby hey
Starting point is 02:12:12 say Trump can't send out campaign ads saying we're looking for strong women to join the campaign because maybe one of you that is not a woman I'm not kidding just seeing the word woman is hurtful this is a cult of control freaks with helpless people that go get college degrees and learn how to be cult members not how to do anything they're building the post human world they're sabotaging everything folks that's why we need your financial support I'm gonna get an air horn sound effect yeah for every for every I want to be furious at me about how many air horns are on the show but yeah man I mean that's really just the purest version of Alex yep is weird secondary narrative about being kicked off the app that he's not even he
Starting point is 02:13:00 is not into it yeah he would much rather complied about the demons and aliens and so absolutely the big spider that seems to have fallen off his radar after the middle of the show but it all just isn't service of selling his shit I have I have like I can't imagine being able to read a wired article with a quote that I gave that's like there are interdimensional demons no no no no no no no alien demons I apologize serve an interdimensional thing of course in quote interdimensional thing my bad so I go reading reading that allowed and being like that's a thing I said I nailed it and you know what that's my religion exactly right how could you be a person who reads that allowed and not have one moment of like is
Starting point is 02:13:49 what am I research anyway well it's the interdimensional thing who's the most of the research so I guess I'm kind of satisfied in some ways because this episode was not as coronavirus heavy which I can appreciate and we got to experience that what a really sad floating like just just treading water kind of guy how he responds to these really negative things in his life I don't I think that he's like almost at the point where he's not even angry about these things no like he's probably pretty angry but also like so burnt out on being angry about them that's just like fucking almost lackadaisical responses eventually the well runs dry yeah it's just gotta yeah and also we got to hear the sweet sounds of the saxophone which is
Starting point is 02:14:35 what I'm always a big fan of sure and I got to find a primary source that Alex was misusing which is always a very special day oh yeah so it is I hope you all are doing alright out there we will be back on Wednesday like we said we're doing Monday Wednesday Friday episodes the for the foreseeable future during this time thank you to everybody something here in there perhaps thank you to everybody who sent nice messages about how much they appreciate it yes thank you very much absolutely so we'll be back but until then we have a website we do have a website it's knowledge fight dot com that's right we also are on Twitter we are on Twitter it's at knowledge underscore fight night go to bed Jordan wrong Facebook we are
