Starting point is 00:00:00 P. Oh, I mean, Oh, Uh, Ah, Oh, Oh, Ah,
Starting point is 00:00:08 Oh, Oh, Oh. If you're hearing this, well done. You found a way to connect to the internet. Welcome to the QAA podcast, episode 291. The protocols are so back. That's one of our worst titles ever.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Yeah, well, and as the resident Jew on the podcast, so back indeed. All right, as always, we are your host, Jake Rakitansky. Lou Baker. Julian Field. And Travis View. Gorgeous and perfect. I come to you today with a simple message.
Starting point is 00:01:03 Never underestimate a genius. I used to think Elon Musk was a barnacle, feeding on the rotted underside of a cruel system, cursed by all except those that brought him into this world, and even then, not so much his dad. But I've changed my ways. Today, I own a cyber truck, which I live stream from daily. I watch every SpaceX rocket launch,
Starting point is 00:01:23 starry-eyed with wonder, looking forward to mankind's impending exploration of Mars. And more than anything, I spend every waking hour on X, the Everything app, where I am fed wisdom and insight by the bucketful. Just the other day, I beheld a user asking why you can't marry a 12-year-old if they're ovulating. I got to see an image of Donald Trump and Kamala Harris hungrily French kissing, and I watched a video of a man fist-fighting a monkey.
Starting point is 00:01:50 No matter what you're into, it's truly all happening on X. But not everyone has as much respect as I do for Elon Musk and all that he's accomplished since his purchase of Twitter. Some undesirables seem hell-bent on filling X, the Everything app, with conspiracy theories about adrenachrome and the return of Antifa Super Soldiers. Some are even outright spreading Nazi propaganda, quoting directly from ancient anti-Semitic texts like the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. So today we're going to take a little tour of some of the most unfortunate content doing
Starting point is 00:02:21 numbers on Elon's platform. Then we'll be hearing from Jake, who's got the lowdown on the latest barger charger, the sinking of a yacht off the coast of Italy, which has caused consternation among conspiracy theorists and, if I understand correctly, a few dead as well. So, let's get right into it. Honestly, I think my favorite part of, like, Elon's Twitter is, like, all of the only fans chat GBT bots. Because you'll make some comment, you'll make some, like, viral tweet about Kamala Harris and they'll respond, like, I scissured with Kamala Harris and her pussy was super wet. I think they're like little gadflies.
Starting point is 00:02:58 I think they're cute now. I've started to find them in Derek. Yeah, he posted the other days, like, are the bots still a problem? As if, like, he had, like, flipped a switch somewhere. Like, oh, the bot, we forgot to turn those off. Bitch, you don't know what the fuck you're doing. Yeah, the porn bots are amazing. Because they're kind of like the concession dealers in a, or the concession stands in a baseball park.
Starting point is 00:03:21 But instead of, like, you know, peanuts and hot dogs is pornography. Get your pornography here. Yeah. You like browsing social media here. where you can get some pornography. Yeah, it is very hard to navigate anything without seeing someone, like, sucking something or showing you there something. It's pretty awesome if you're a porn addict, you know, in recovery or something like that
Starting point is 00:03:44 to just constantly be bombarded by pussy and ass and dick. I guess, yeah, because I was going to ask, who is clicking, you know, if you make a tweet about a baseball team and below, you know, there's a post from a... Oh, I scissor the dot. Yeah, a porn account, a porn account that's like, chat more here, chat nautily here. You know, who's going, you know what? I'm going to take them up on their offer. When there are so many more, you know, reliable pornography sites available, I just wonder, you know, are these bots really doing business?
Starting point is 00:04:17 Well, the bigger ones will be like people's proper, like, official accounts or whatever. Just bots for a real lonely fans. And they just reply a bunch of stuff. And then that's just like the general appeal of only fans. where it's like, I can see a bunch of boobs on the internet, but I want to see this woman's boobs specifically. I will pay money to do so. Explaining this to Jake, amazing.
Starting point is 00:04:37 And very funny, since I have to transition into something that I did not enjoy writing, but I feel like we got to get some things out of the way up front here. Right-wing anti-Semites do not give a fuck about the Palestinian people. They see this horrifying, unforgivable genocide as an opportunity to promote their own anti-Semitic agenda, under the guise of anti-Zionism. Israel would like you to believe that it, as a military and as a state, represents all Jewish people. And anti-Semites would like you to believe the same. Fuck them both.
Starting point is 00:05:09 To oppose Zionism as a settler-colonial racist project is not to hate Jewish people. In fact, some of the most ardent anti-Zionists are Jewish. You can oppose Israel's genocide and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people and oppose anti-Semitism as well. And by covering anti-Semitic online remarks, I do not mean to paper over or distract. from the larger issue here. A civilian population indiscriminately tortured, raped, and murdered in the name of an ethno-nationalist project with the backing of the United States government. Shame on us.
Starting point is 00:05:38 And honestly, if you can watch the DNC and not just think of that the entire time, then we are different. So with that out of the way, it's time to talk about Candace Owens. We've covered her in the past, of course, but a lot has transpired since we focused on her specifically in episode 41. She was once the communications director for Charlie Kirk's youth-focused organization Turning Point USA. Then she worked for Ben Shapiro's publication, The Daily Wire. She was fired from there in March of 2024 after straying too far from the racist,
Starting point is 00:06:09 Islamophobic, anti-feminist, and anti-LGBQ talking points Ben loves so much, and venturing too far into anti-Semitism, which Ben likes less, especially when it involves any criticism of Israel. He has no problem with attacking Jewish people if it's to tell them that they're fake Jews for not supporting Israel. So whatever, fuck him. Anyways, uh, recently she published one of the most insane videos I've seen on X, uh, in which she ventured into the territory of blood libel. Many a moons ago before they decided to establish Israel as a country. I know you've read like the short version in the classroom and it was like, oh, the Holocaust happened. And then we
Starting point is 00:06:45 realized that Israel needs to take. No, that's not how it went down. That's not how it went down at the F all. Okay. Catholics and Christians were going missing on Passover. And then they would find bodies, okay, across Europe, and they were able to trace them back to Jews. Blood libel! I like the thing of doing it and just screaming it out loud. Blood libel! It's like Eminem and, like, 8 mile or whatever. It's like a fucked up jack in the box.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Yeah, like handing somebody a smearing off ice, you know, it's like, gotcha. You've been iced. You've been libelled. Oh, fuck. So in the rest of the video, which. I will spare you. Owens promotes an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory that is weird, even for anti-Semites. It posits that Israel was founded by a breakaway Jewish cult known as the Frankists, which was active in the 1700s and 1800s. Now, I looked into it. Frankism did exist.
Starting point is 00:07:42 It was weird as hell. And it probably deserves its own episode. The founder, in fact, by the end of his awful little career, he converted to Islam. Super weird story. I definitely think we should organize an episode around it at some point, but it's long gone, and it had nothing to do with the founding of Israel in the mid-1900s. She uses a guy with the last name Frank, who was wrongfully accused of a murder of a teenage factory worker in like the early 1900s to, like, bridge this gap. It's a long story. We don't really need to get into it, but all of this is to say that she's off her rocker and, you know, that the truth doesn't matter to Owens. She goes on to claim that Frankis are quote unquote fake Jews and pedophiles and they continue to sacrifice Christians to this
Starting point is 00:08:29 day which is just I mean again textbook blood libel she knows it I love this new version of being a conspiracy theorist where you just scream out the thing you already know you're going to be told you're doing as a kind of jinx it sounds like she's done a lot of work that doesn't matter yeah even the worst like online shitty people like um saw like even miles Chong being like well she's lost the plot. Even the worst or like, well, something's gone terribly wrong with Owens. She is hanging out a lot with the Tate brothers, which I would point out are actual human traffickers, not the made up ones that you're talking about. And Kanye as well, of course, they've been getting along quite a bit and baking stuff together. So that's cool. She's doing great. I mean, it sounds like she
Starting point is 00:09:12 took a deep dive into the history of anti-Semitism in order to figure out how to be a better anti-Semite. Mm-hmm. Yeah. So Owens' video went viral, and it was promoted by a big QAnon account going by Shadow of Ezra, with 428,000 followers on X. He said this. Candice Owens broke the internet by claiming that Zionists are not the original Jews, but are actually demon worshippers. She goes on to say that modern-day Israel, founded by the Rothschilds, has become a safe haven for pedophiles. Many people, mostly conservatives, are now calling for Candace Owens to be banned from X. So we need to retire the breaking the internet thing. I'm fucking done with that thing.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Honestly, when you talked about this account, having 400,000 followers, I thought you were going to say telegram. Then I remembered the cruel, awful, terrible world we live in. We're like, no, no, no, this is an account that is totally fine on X, like will not be banned. Absolutely. Doing absolute numbers. Even just this post, and this video was reposted so many times, but this post. Post alone did 47K likes, 12K, retweets, all of that. So that's cool.
Starting point is 00:10:24 And then, you know, this got everybody talking because obviously if you're a psycho on the right, you will like be like, oh, this is an interesting beginning to a conversation. Let's have a discussion on X, the debate app. Yeah, I see that this post has 6.5 million views, which is crazy because coincidentally, that is the almost the same number of Jews that were murdered in the Holocaust. So, oh, geez. Holy shit. Even you did not enjoy saying that because it's true.
Starting point is 00:10:55 And God damn, that's not that funny. Ah, well, anyways, we got a response from another awful person here that we've covered in the past. Operation Underground Railroad's Tim Ballard, who saw a chance to jump in on a viral post. And so he made a video response, and this is what he wrote in it. My friend at Real Candice O broke the internet recently, proclaiming that the United States should not ally itself with hashtag Israel because it was not actually founded by quote unquote real Jews, rather by ill-intentioned groups, including pedophiles. This is my response. Hashtag, children over politics. Hashtag save the children.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Hashtag Sound of Freedom. My movie. Hashtag borders. Hashtag God's children are not for sale. Yeah, so just pure self-promotion, as usual, huge piece of shit. This is very first drafty, by the way, that Israel is actually founded by a cabal of pet. That Israel is essentially like a prison, like a prison island like Australian was, but just for pedophiles. I mean, yeah, we'll get into it in a bit, but first we have to talk about Ballard.
Starting point is 00:12:06 In the video, he attempts to re-center the conversation on just being plain racist about all the other countries in the Middle East. Israel is the only Democratic Republic really functional in that region, in a region full of countries who harvest terrorists and commit acts of barbary and are doing horrific things. Okay. So what's funny here is that Ballard is parroting the same logic that the U.S. State Department has for supporting Israel, which is that they offer a sort of real politic, like military proxy in the Middle East, a region in which, for sure.
Starting point is 00:12:42 some reason, no idea why the United States has a lot of enemies. I don't know. I don't study history. I also don't read the news. So not sure why they hate us there, but we need Israel to, you know, hold these barbarians at bay. Anyways, here's Ballard again. So first and foremost, we should ally ourselves with the one country who's a Democratic Republic who give the power to the people. Okay, we should ally with people like that because we know that's the best form of government. So there's one reason, especially being that we have a lot of enemies in that region, and we need friends in that region, first and foremost. That's more important than tracing bloodlines.
Starting point is 00:13:22 That's a rough cut. You got to do that one again, right there. Tracing bloodlines. He's like, no, I get it. We all want to trace bloodlines, okay? But I feel like right now we should just focus on the fact that, you know, we need to spread democracy to the Middle East. Yeah. He's like, this nation of pedophiles is the only thing standing between us and a nation of barbarians. I mean, who are you going to choose?
Starting point is 00:13:48 Yeah, well, he kind of does make that point. In the video, he makes a very convoluted argument about pedophilia and child sex trafficking arguing that, yeah, Israel's not great at combating it, but at least they aren't as bad as Iran. And let's not forget how pedophile infested the United States is. So Pobody's Nerfick. I'm not here casting stones, you know, there's Dennis Hastert, but I'm just saying. Guys, we're the biggest pedophiles. That's his big point. He's like, are you going to be anti-American because we're the biggest pedophiles on earth? That's his argument. He actually says that. I'm a pedophile trafficking ring reformist.
Starting point is 00:14:26 I don't think we should go too hard on them. I think that eventually slowly, if we reform and change them, it'll be fine. No, that's, he's actually arguing that in the video. He's like, yeah, no, I mean, among the people who founded, uh, is, were there pedophiles? Yes. I'm like, in my mind, I'm like, why do people think that pedophilia is somehow something that doesn't cross all borders of like race and creed and religion? Like, I'm pretty sure this is a universal problem we have here. It's not something where it's like, well, you know, who's particularly pedophilic and then just bring up a racist or specific religion. Maybe he believes
Starting point is 00:15:03 that pedophilia like isn't passed down, you know, within your DNA. So the people who are running Israel. Now, they've kind of evolved out of their pedophilic roots, and maybe they're not so bad after all. Adding a third layer of insanity to two already really bad points, OGQ non-influencer Liz Krokin then chimed in, spinning up her own conspiracy theory about Tim Ballard to defend Candace Owen's anti-Semitism. Now, this is awesome because she's on one like, for real. She's bringing in the Clinton Foundation. She's got Tony Robbins. She is connecting the dots here, Haiti, PizzaGate, everything. This is like four paragraphs.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Yeah, here's the insane wall of text. She's able to post, thanks to her status as an ex-subscriber. Only on X, everything app. Yeah, that's right. It's time to expose Tim Ballard, exclamation point. Tim Ballard did a video in response to Candice Owens' recent comments about Israel and pedophilia. Ballard claims that Israel is, quote, interested in fighting child sex trafficking. and quote, at least they've made efforts to stop it and encourages his followers to all get behind them.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Ballard is ignoring that Jewish pedophiles take refuge in Israel to escape justice. Their Mossad was running most likely the largest blackmail operation in the world via Jeffrey Epstein's child trafficking ring and that there's a whole movement in Israel condoning and encouraging Israeli soldiers to rape war detainees. Ballard is another fake sex trafficking advocate who dismissed PizzaGate and lied about Wayfair. Glenn Beck, who has hysterically denied PizzaGate for years like a crazed madman, was one of his biggest supporters and donors. In October of 2016, Ballard's Operation Underground Railroad hired Tony Robbins, who is a lifelong friend of Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama.
Starting point is 00:17:06 Also, Hillary received close to $1 million from Robbins's power within. Now Robbins joined Ballard's team suspiciously right after the Podesta emails were released in 2016. Did the Clinton Mafia install Robbins to run a controlled opposition operation with Ballard to discredit and deflect from Pizza Gate? It sure seems like it. Oh, boy, let's go with the cork board. The cork board is out, folks. Robbins was also an executive producer of Sound of Freedom, the movie that claimed to expose sex trafficking based on a true story.
Starting point is 00:17:41 However, it's been widely criticized for misrepresenting the truth. Furthermore, it drew attention to trafficking in another country, not here. Also, what a lot of people don't know is the original cut of the film glorified our Department of Homeland Security, portraying them as heroes combating trafficking. You know, the same DHS under Joe Biden that's currently sex trafficking, migrant children on your dime and responsible for more than 100,000 missing migrant children. Maybe that's why Fox News Channel, the network that did the most damage to cover up PizzaGate, loved the film so much. Look over here, not over there, all you sheep.
Starting point is 00:18:20 This is so awesome because she is turning on everybody. It's like, yeah, and fuck the DHS, and fuck Fox News. Nobody believes me. Furthermore, Carlos Slim, who is tied to drug trafficking and sex trafficking too and is also a Hillary ally who tried to get her elected in 2016 was a main investor of the Sound of Freedom. Also, Slim has partnered with the Clinton Foundation that was involved in sex trafficking children and Frank Giustra to do alleged philanthropic work in Haiti, not shady, at all. Finally, Ballard and his organization, which he was forced to resign from, has faced many allegations, and Ballard has been accused by multiple women of sexual assault. And for those who don't know, Jeffrey Epstein, Mossad, and Israel are at the crux of Pizza Gate. So now you know
Starting point is 00:19:10 some of the reasons why Ballard is turning a blind eye to Israel's involvement with sex crimes against children. Pass it on, wave emoji at Real Candice O. This is so funny because the wave emoji is not just the white hand. So which I think. think she's trying to use as like, I'm tanned, which is such a funny white woman thing to do. Be like, well, no, I'm not the palest one. Well, I'm certainly not yellow or one of the other closest would be this slightly tanned hand. Yeah, I've been out in the sunlight lately. This is obviously just such an insane shit sandwich of stuff, but obviously she uses nuggets of
Starting point is 00:19:57 truth to power her conspiracy theorizing. For example, she's not wrong about the sexual assault of Gaza detainees. I mean, there were recently riots to cover up, you know, the systematic rape of the detainees by IDF and guards. The public deserves more information about Jeffrey Epstein's pedophile ring and its connection with powerful people and intelligence agencies. I do not disagree there. Bill Clinton, extremely suss.
Starting point is 00:20:24 I will just say that about him. Got to speak at the DNC. See, that's not great, folks. Sound of freedom is bad and does misrepresent, you know, child sex trafficking. Ballard was accused credibly of assaulting people within his organization. Exactly. Yeah, I'm happy to hear Liz Croken's pro-me-to stance. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:20:46 Yeah, of course. I mean, it's really interesting where she'll just agree with, like, lib sources to make her point and just paper over that. But the idea that, like, Jeffrey Epstein, Mossad, and Israel are at the crux of Pizza Gate. Well, why didn't you bring them up then? Because that was not what you were talking about back then. Back then it was about how there's a basement to comet ping pong, and John Podesta and all these Democrats are using code words to order and rape and kill children down there. But now suddenly, after a bunch of information came out, you kind of glued that onto your shit. But it's, I don't know, poorly glued.
Starting point is 00:21:20 We got some Elmer glue here. Didn't let it dry long enough. Yeah. And it's also true that pedophiles. sometimes evade justice by fleeing to Israel using the fact that they're Jewish, you know, to basically evade the law. So here's from a 2020 CBS news article by Ian Lee. Tel Aviv. It's a tense stakeout, waiting for Jimmy Julius Carrow to appear. He is a wanted man that's considered dangerous. Accused of sexually assaulting a nine-year-old girl in Oregon in 2000, he fled to Israel
Starting point is 00:21:51 before authorities in the U.S. could apprehend him or figure out where he went. Corro had been running from U.S. law enforcement ever since. Currently, Interpol, an intergovernmental policing organization that works with 194 countries, has a red notice to alert police worldwide that he's a fugitive. Two years after he fled the U.S., Carrot was convicted by an Israeli court of child molestation in a separate case. He served time and was released. Now another alleged Israeli victim has come forward, saying he began abusing her when she
Starting point is 00:22:21 was five years old and continued for years. Corot has successfully evaded authorities by moving between communities in Israel for almost two decades, and he is not alone. A CBS News investigation has found that many accused American pedophiles flee to Israel and bringing them to justice can be difficult. Jewish Community Watch, or JCW, an American organization that tracks accused pedophiles, has been trying for years to find Corro and help bring him to justice. JCW says Corot and other wanted men and women have been able to exploit a right known as the Law of Return, whereby any Jewish person can move to Israel and automatically gain citizenship. Since these small organizations started tracking accused pedophiles in 2014, it says more than 60 have fled from the U.S. to Israel.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Given its limited resources to identify these individuals, J.C.W. says the actual number is likely much larger. Quote, the same thing that is going on in the Catholic Church right now around the world, the exact same thing is happening in our community, JCW's founder, Meyer Seawald, told CBS News. The cover-ups are the same, the stigma, the shame. So, Croken has no interest in any of this stuff, obviously. She just wants to use it to promote Pizagate, the Wayfair conspiracy theory, and other Q&on-related bullshit.
Starting point is 00:23:34 But it hits way harder when you mix it up with real stories and half-truths. So that's for all you out there who hear these arguments from your loved ones. You could be like, well, and then kind of give them the granular breakdown. I did not enjoy looking into any of this. Tell you that much. Not fun at all. Candice Owens, Tim Ballard, and Liz Crokin are awful people, and this human centipede is all happening on X,
Starting point is 00:24:01 garnering massive amounts of engagement. Awesome. Meanwhile, Kim.com, the creator of Mega Upload, who in the past spread Seth Rich conspiracy theories and has 1.6 million followers on X also jumped on the anti-Semitism, masquerading as anti-Zionism train, by straight up posting several quotes
Starting point is 00:24:18 from the protocols of the elders of Zion. a fabricated text from 1903 that became a Nazi favorite and might be the most well-known piece of anti-Semitic propaganda in history. He's also pulling something like Candice Owens where he names what he's doing, which he thinks will avoid it being an issue. So here's what he wrote. This may be the most important post you'll ever read
Starting point is 00:24:40 because it provides a simple explanation about why our world is being destroyed by design. I'm not anti-Semitic or a Nazi. I'm simply a former hacker with great analytical skills who understands what's happening in the world. At the end of this post, I will quote from a world domination plan. You will recognize the truth immediately
Starting point is 00:24:58 because that's what's currently happening in the world. Today's reality suggests that this plan is real. When you do your own research, you will learn that the origin of this plan was discredited, that the alleged creators have nothing to do with it. But who was the person providing the key evidence? It was Alan Dulles, the man who raised money from U.S. industrialists
Starting point is 00:25:15 to fund Adolf Hitler, his Nazi party, and his war. The man who later became the direct, of the CIA during Kennedy and the head of the Warren Commission that investigated the Kennedy assassination. Why would anyone believe a man was such a questionable character? The protocols of the Elders of Zion have unquestionably borrowed ideas from several authors, but you can say that about most important writings throughout history. It was called a fabrication and is one of the first uses of the term conspiracy theory. So this, this blew my mind because Alan Dulles had nothing to do with exposing the protocols as a fraudulent text. Like, he sucks, but the claim Kim is
Starting point is 00:25:49 making doesn't even make sense on its own terms like the Nazis love the text so why would someone like Dulles who he claims was allied with the Nazis want to discredit it it's stupid it's one of the weird things where people are like actually Adolf Hitler was Jewish like the Nazis were Jewish as well it's another stunning one like that yeah I mean that is a big argument I remember one of the biggest QAnon guys arguing that they were Rothschilds right but that the Rothschilds weren't Jewish so that's not just like so many fucking gymnastics just to do anti-Semitism so yeah but I mean, then Kim just goes on to post quotes straight out of the protocols of the elders of Zion. Just stunningly direct textbook anti-Semitism.
Starting point is 00:26:28 I mean, I don't know. It would be like a parody, but it's real. No matter, his post got 48,000 likes and 19,000 retweets. It all happens on X. Elon suing advertisers for not wanting to advertise on these tweets, by the way. Yeah, McDonald's advertising right underneath the protocols of the others of Zion. I mean, what's funny is that the fucking Israeli propaganda machine, like the actual state of Israel, is buying ads on the platform. So there's a good possibility that you could have an ad from Israel right next to the guy posting the protocols of the elders of Zion.
Starting point is 00:27:03 It's so fucking cursed, man. It sucks so fucking much. I have to go searching for content on X that isn't melted. Like if I want to see the patch notes for, I don't know, seven days to die. I, just to give an example. I actually just have to search their, even though I'm following them, I have to search their account
Starting point is 00:27:24 and then go through. Otherwise, what it shows me is all melted content. Oh, yeah, for sure. 100%. It's people I don't follow. It almost knows accounts that I look at out of pure hate and don't follow, maybe even have them blocked.
Starting point is 00:27:41 And it shows them to me when it comes up. It is so, I have to delete the app like every couple weeks, basically, because there's nothing good happening here. And the fact that this post where he's literally just posting quotes from the protocols and it's getting tens of thousands of views and it's not getting reported, it's not getting banned, it's just out there. It's generating conversation and people piggybacking on it is it tells you everything you need
Starting point is 00:28:10 to know about what Elon kind of wanted when he made this purchase. He didn't do it to make it a free speech platform. He did it to give the worst people on the platform freer speech. Yeah, and his whole cover up of like, dude, are you just straight up anti-Semitic is just like flying to Israel, hugging Netanyahu and being like, no, I support these people. It's like, goddamn man, way to be on the wrong side of every possible thing. You suck. I mean, not super weird, I guess, that an apartheid South African. scion of a wealthy family went on to support another apartheid state, but yeah, not great.
Starting point is 00:28:55 Adrenichrome is also back, or perhaps it never left us to begin with. For those unfamiliar, this is a repackaged version of Blood Libel for the Pizza Gate and QAnon era. The core idea remains the same, babies being sacrificed and ritualistically consumed, but this version is stripped of the overt references to Jewish people and instead relies on modern fiction like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Usually it's a cabal of Democrats being accused, but we recently got another remix on X involving Ukraine. The largest post I could find promoting this was by a Q&on promoting account called Jack Straw with over 218,000 followers. In his account, brave Russian soldiers are the protagonists.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Russian soldiers are describing finding children with fragile, emaciated bodies, hooked up to intravenous drips while their bodies were expertly drained of blood and adrenal fluid for the global adrenochrome trade. I mean, it's not great writing right off the top of the bat. It looks like he had mad libs
Starting point is 00:29:56 and just plugged children, drained and adrenochrome into all of the blank spaces. The adrenochrome industry in Ukraine is larger than previously expected, and Putin is determined to use the leads generated to destroy the global.
Starting point is 00:30:11 global adrenochrome supply chain and punish those committing crimes against children, including the politicians and celebrities who are hooked on the drug, he calls, quote, the devil's work. According to a member of the Adrenochrome Task Force, his factory farms are the sites of ritual sexual abuse, physical degradation, and psychological torture. Quote, you know, I thought I'd seen it all. I've been in combat for years. Seen comrades full.
Starting point is 00:30:37 A deltivist of worst humanity has to offer. But nothing, nothing could prepare me for what we found. In Donetsk, we were told we would be liberating children. I didn't understand the scale of what that meant until we got there. This is the best version of the Metro Games ever. This is like Pilled World War Z or something. Yeah, it's awesome. We were clearing out the complex, a grim place,
Starting point is 00:31:06 like a Gulag or a Nazi death camp, but worse, much worse. The walls were gray, cold, and damp. The air, it stank of decay and something nauseating, something I can't describe. And then we found them. The children, they were like ghosts, skin and bones. Their bodies, they looked so fragile, almost transparent. I could see the outlines of their ribs. Every bone in their tiny hands. They had tubes coming out of them, Some tubes that drained their blood, their adrenal fluids for what? For some sick trade, some twisted demand from the West. There were hundreds of them just lying there in these rows of metal cots, no blankets,
Starting point is 00:31:54 no warmth. They didn't even flinch when we burst in. No fear, no hope, just emptiness in their eyes. Some were too weak to even look at us. They were so used to the pain, the dormant, they didn't even react. Their worst part, the youngest. Some of them couldn't have been or more than two years old.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Babies, really. We found out later that they were bred for this, raised in captivity like livestock, just to be drained of everything that made them human. The ones they couldn't sell, the ones who weren't pretty enough or obedient enough, were sent to these farms. Farms, as if that's what you could call those hellholes.
Starting point is 00:32:36 Yeah, so this is a repost of an account called Julian Assange Wiki, which is gone now. There's like an AI of like a soldier holding a child with like smoke around them. And then he follows this up with a little post that says, Prepare for 10 days of darkness. Keep the tissues and potty's close at hand. The tissues and the potty's? What are you seven?
Starting point is 00:33:01 I mean. Also, this shit got 16,000 likes and 1.3 million. million views. Yep. Yeah, 11,000 retweets. I mean, the thing is that this displays, you know, so at least some amount of creative writing talent because it establishes this character who's this hardened soldier who's seen it all, but they are shaken to the core by, you know, seeing these children in this horrible way. And then, um, and then sort of it ends on this, um, you know, this, this horrible image of like, you know, just children treated like livestock. So, Well, you know, there's got to be someone who was just, you know, sitting down and crafting this story of nothing.
Starting point is 00:33:46 I mean, this is what the Russian soldiers saw when they liberated concentration camps in World War II. I mean, this is a very, it's almost a beat by beat of what one can imagine the soldiers saw when they freed, you know, or when they enter these camps for the first time. So it's just somebody essentially taking that narrative and plugging in like adrenachrome and children, you know, sort of in place of Jewish prisoners. Yeah, and Putin, obviously, instead of the Soviets. This is just one of the posts. It's been shared by a lot of pro-QAnon accounts.
Starting point is 00:34:17 But before we get into this, which I got to say, this is pretty obviously Russian propaganda. I'm not sure where it's sourced from, but like, yeah, it's like Putin fighting the good war against a dreamtrum. And anyways, yeah, it's the most fascinating account that I saw sharing it is a guy who goes by Sean and runs a Rumble channel called people's voice. Doesn't use the last name. But he goes even further than Jack Straw in his explanation that Putin is saving the children in a video that he posted. Russian President Vladimir Putin has vowed to shut down the adrenaline cream supply chain surfacing Hollywood after Russian forces made a series of horrifying discoveries in Ukraine in recent days. Putin has enlisted Hollywood insiders including Mel Gibson and Stephen Segal to put all the chess pieces together so he can
Starting point is 00:35:02 make his move. The elites in Tinseltown are already feeling the effects of Putin shutting down child factory farms in Ukraine, and according to reports on the ground, they've already begun moving their operations elsewhere, including within the United States and Mexico. However, Putin has a plan to save those children as well, and it involves enlisting the help of those who are intimately acquainted with the sick Hollywood system. Yeah, Stephen Saccal, you know, those Ukrainians do not stand a chance against the guy who, like, in all of his movies now, like, isn't even standing up in all the takes. Yeah, and Mel Gibson, who I'm pretty sure is never so anymore. But I think that's a great buddy movie of like them too trying to go liberate imaginary like
Starting point is 00:35:43 adrenachrome farms in in fucking Mexico in the United States. Mel Gibson and Steven Seagall taking on adrenachrome farms sounds like a movie that we would have to cover on this podcast. For sure. This is obviously nonsense. But at the same time when Tom Cruise showed up at the Olympics, he started finally looking his age after decades of looking so youthful. Perhaps not a coincidence. The farms are being cut off. Yes, they've been cut off. I love in this video, he's like, the adrenochrome farms that supply Hollywood
Starting point is 00:36:14 directly to Merrill Streep and Bruce Willis' character, you know, from Death Becumseur, never mind. There's a whole Adrenichrome movie, Death Becomeser. This is a reference I actually get. Bringing up Bruce Willis maybe bad taste in this day and an hour, I think that if he had the Adrenicrome farms,
Starting point is 00:36:34 he'd be better off right now. The video cuts to it. a Putin speech that is dubbed about how the West is a decadent culture that accepts pedophilia. It then builds on the narrative by claiming once again that there's a non-existent statement by Mel Gibson on the topic. Who can blame Putin for railing against the sick and twisted paedophiles currently occupying high places and influencing culture in the West? According to CIA sources, 8 million children go missing in the world each and every year.
Starting point is 00:37:02 The vast majority of them lost into a system of paedophilia and adrenochrome blood trials. while mainstream media downplay the gravity of the situation out of fear of angering their overlords. Children are now a more valuable commodity than drugs to the criminal class. And in Hollywood, children operate as a unit of currency, according to Mel Gibson, who warns that entertainment industry elites, including many household-named celebrities, regularly feast on the blood of children. So that's quite something to put in Mel Gibson's mouth. I honestly in private, after a couple drinks, I could actually see him saying that.
Starting point is 00:37:37 But I don't know if there's ever been like a public statement, but honestly, the video is quite sophisticated. Like, it's a decent simulacra of like a respectable anchorman, uh, intercut with classic QAnon content, like an interview with Robert David Steele, RIP, who claimed to be CIA, but like, became either was never CIA or was CIA and then became insanely pilled in like a mainstay of QAnon. Then it's got Jim Caviesel on Steve Bannon's war room ranting about adrenichrome. And then there's an ad for a website called Pills Forever. I would definitely trust. I mean, you don't want to run out of pills. Yeah. Forever.
Starting point is 00:38:15 What kind of pills would you need forever? Well, Adrenachrome pills. You know, keep you alive. Oh, they're pressing it into pills. Now, I thought it was always vials, you know? I know, yeah. No, the plebs only get pills. I want to check out this guy's channel on Rumble,
Starting point is 00:38:30 and he's there claiming that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is addicted to adrenochrome. I didn't know you could get addicted to it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what they say is like, why do they look like shit? Well, that's because they got cut off. Like, the flow got cut off. That's why Hillary Clinton's passing out, getting into a limo or whatever. It's because she doesn't have what she needs because we're on to her. Anyways, this whole thing seems like Russian propaganda riding the Q&on wave. It's very fun stuff. 78,000 followers on Rumble and 72,000 on X. So, in conclusion to my little segment, Elon Musk has done a great job. allowing his platform to become a haven for Q&ON promoters, neo-Nazis, and conspiracy theorists. It seems they are bolder than ever and dabbing on Travis view hard. Travis? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Continuing with the theme of the horrible sewage spewing out of X, I'm going to talk about the Antifa Apocalypse 2. Because in the lead up to the DNC, many users of the website formerly known as Twitter express concern. over the Antifa presence in Chicago, the host city. Some even claimed falsely in very popular tweets that GPS data demonstrated that tens of thousands, possibly over 100,000 members of Antifa were descending upon the third largest city in the country. Now, this is not a totally original panic. You might remember back in 2017, the right-wing media responded to planned anti-Trump protests by claiming that Antifa super soldiers were planning a civil war.
Starting point is 00:40:07 war. This is what happens, by the way, when you don't secure your deep dish pizzas and Chicago-style dogs in a bag that you hang from a tree. Antifa can smell it, and they're obviously going to be attracted to your city, and then you're overrun before you know it. That's true. You need to get a good airtight Antifa box to put your perishables in. The sad part is, is that these guys are going to show up and ruin it, too, by putting ketchup on the dogs, by eating pizza with a fork and a knife. It's, yeah, it's undesirable. Is the point here that Kamala is putting out like an Antifa bat signal?
Starting point is 00:40:45 Like, like they're pro-Democrat. Yeah, of course. I mean, the whole idea is like Antifa is the Democrats army or whatever, which is very funny because the people they're basically accusing of being Antifa were, you know, people protesting about the genocide in Palestine being carried out by Israel. And believe me, the Democrats do not want to talk about that. They have their guy who looks like a dad as VP. Everyone's riding high going, wow, America's back.
Starting point is 00:41:12 We're feeling good. They do not want to hear about genocide while they're partying and holding signs up that say Doug. Yeah, they got a bunch of liberals shouting, USA, USA, USA, lock them up, lock them up. They are, they do not want to stray from that path. This is working. Obama's making dick jokes. Guys, we do not want to hear about the genocide in Palestine that we are currently back. and about to send more money to fund, okay?
Starting point is 00:41:39 We are going to defeat the bad guy, Donald Trump, who is bad, and we are good. Yeah, in order to defeat MAGA, they had to become it. I mean, on X as well, we do have a lot of Blune on people, and they are definitely going hard on the assassination attempt is a stage thing. It was trending. I just looked at X a couple seconds ago to see if there were any updates on the yacht story. And one of the number one trending things is hashtag staged, and they're still talking about it. No, no, no. This is like a whole ass thing.
Starting point is 00:42:12 I was going to do a part on it, and then I just got exhausted by all the protocols of, but, yeah, it's just, it's bad, folks, and we're all enjoying it. It's really bad, but I'm doing great. My ideology is spreading across all political parties across. We're all me. We're all Donald Trump right now. Everything is Trump. everything is Trump and looking good. I'm looking bad and sounding bad,
Starting point is 00:42:38 but you're looking good. You know, it makes me think that like Steve Bannon was right when he said that Q and on was directionally correct, but he meant like as in it's pointing in the direction that we're all going. Like we are all going to be Q&N, we're all going to be Trump.
Starting point is 00:42:54 Welcome to the circus. So this new claim about the Antifa army, as absurd as it is, spread to other social media platforms. For example, one middle-aged TikTok user lamented that he couldn't personally confront the Antifa force in a video that received thousands of likes and comments. Breaking news, man over 41 refers to someone else's middle-aged. I am also middle-aged. What do you have against us, Travis?
Starting point is 00:43:20 I mean, yeah, I'm also middle-aged. I'd expect this from fucking live. I don't think middle-aged is a derogatory comment. It is when I use it. Neuturally descriptive. People are saying I should. step down because I no longer make any sense and instead the person running the podcast would be lit. People are saying that but I don't believe it and I don't think they could get me
Starting point is 00:43:44 out. Anyways, here's the clip. Man, this is going to be exciting. I can't wait for y'all's videos because what are y'all going to do? 30,000 Antifa are going to be down there. And I mean, I really wish it was in Louisiana because I got a few things I would like to. the states of them antifas, you know, I mean, oh, shit, that was, that was bad. He's putting on a tack on it. Yeah, I got a few things I would like to show the Antifa, but I can't because, you know why, antifa and all these protesters are protesting from the left, protesting the left. Okay, so this is so awesome because he's wearing a T-shirt that says AAA heating and cooling,
Starting point is 00:44:32 which is probably like his company. He has his reading glasses hanging from the thing. And he's switching his ball cap for like a tack helmet. He thinks it's so badass. With like a flashlight attached to it. Yeah, there's a flashlight attached to it. He's like in Louisiana working as a fucking contractor. Yeah, dude, this is.
Starting point is 00:44:51 This is fascinating because he says like Antifa is protesting the left. So he wants to stop them from sabotaging the DNC is his vision. Yeah. I mean, this is the brain. on these folks. Also, all of these guys, all of these guys, they all have full heads of hair. I don't understand it. We have yet, we have yet to see one of these absolute, maybe the hotter your brain is, the more blood flow you get going up there. I swear, the moment I stopped engaging with conspiracy theories throughout the course of doing this podcast, my hair started to fall
Starting point is 00:45:24 out. Maybe there is some, maybe I should get pilled again, not for the sake of the pod, but for the sake of my own vanity. What do you guys think? It lowers your tea. It lowers your tea. And Jake is now doing like bloodline studies, but to figure out why his hair is gone. He's like, damn it, I wish I was a goy in Louisiana. Yeah, my brain like cooled off. My brain cooled off somehow and it's having negative effects. Yeah, it's true. Yeah, your hair totally fine. None of it was falling out before the podcast. This has not been a years-long war. No, it was pretty good before the podcast. Actually, pretty good before I met you. Okay, all right, here we go.
Starting point is 00:46:04 Well, I have been feeding you goyslop, and, you know, I'm the one who makes you eat horrible fast food. So, I mean, this really should go without saying, but this is one of those claims that's, like, so absurd on its face that you can know that's false without, like, really checking. Like, if 100,000 members of Antifa, especially if they existed as they do in the imagination of the far right as a kind of, like, organized paramed. a military force and they marched into a city over the course of a couple days, you'd hear about it. That would be tough to miss. Like, by comparison, the largest U.S. Army installation is at Fort
Starting point is 00:46:40 Liberty, and that is home to about 50,000 troops. At the very height of the U.S. war in Afghanistan, that was in August of 2010, there were about 100,000 U.S. troops in the country. That was the most ever U.S. troops in the course of that war. I mean, 100,000, that is a big field army that would have to be, like, commanded by a general. Lots and lots of people. People are criticizing me for pulling out of Chicago with my 100,000 Antifa troops. We left all our weapons behind, and it is since being taken over by the three percenters. They immediately swept in to fill the vacuum. But I saved some blood being shed. This particular claim originated with a conspiracist named Tony Saruga. So he is, by all appearances, a real person who lives in.
Starting point is 00:47:29 in Newport Beach, California, according to his LinkedIn profile. He lives in Newport, but he lives in, like, the pack of cigarettes. He has a house that's shaped like the pack. Now, he says he has experience in, like, marketing, venture capital, and business development. But his Twitter profile suggests a more exciting background than all of that. He once claimed that he was a Intel Ops CIA NSA contractor and whistleblower. Okay, yeah. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Saruga. We all are, folks. Everybody wants to be, everybody wants to be a spy nowadays. Everybody wants to be doing ops. Yeah, everybody wants to be an operator. And a whistleblower. We're all human. And a whistleblower. And a spy. Surely it can't be all of the TVs and movies over the last
Starting point is 00:48:15 six decades where these were the main characters. If you had chronic lower back pain from working as a roofer, you would too. So this is not the first time that Tony Seruga has made ways by pushing falsehoods. He has repeatedly succeeded to get his made-up claims, get traction in the right-wing media ecosystem. And he does this by relying upon a like a real basic trick. He always has a story or an explanation about why he has access to secret information that isn't available
Starting point is 00:48:46 to most people. Like he never attempts to actually prove that he has access to the secret information. He just states that he does and then moves on to the claim itself. So he just relies upon the natural and nearly irresistible drive that people have for acquiring esoteric knowledge. And, you know, this is the same trick that Q used to do people. In May of this year, the Far Right News Network OAN published a false story, which was headlined Whistleblower Avenotti alleged Cohen Daniels affair since 2006, pre-2016 Trump extortion plan. A claim that Michael Avanotti, the one-time lawyer for Stormy Daniels, confessed that
Starting point is 00:49:25 Trump fixer Michael Cohen was a longtime lover of Stormy Daniels and that they had cooked up a scheme to extort the Trump organization. They figured this out by watching a scene in which she had multiple lovers and they could recognize the buttocks of Mr. Cohen. Now, the only source for this news report on OAN was tweets by Tony Saruga. Now, how did Tony Saruga acquire the secret information that eluded every single news outlet, including conservative outlets? Saruga claimed that he once shared an office with Michael Avanadi, and during this period,
Starting point is 00:49:59 Avanadi supposedly shared details about this secret affair. Now, he didn't provide any proof of this claim. He just stated it. So the article commented this. Suruga has released a report that, if confirmed, would shatter the stories surrounding Stormy Daniels and Donald Trump that Biden and the mainstream media have been hanging on to for years. It's big if true. Yeah. Now, these claims were so baseless and so outrageous.
Starting point is 00:50:22 it led OAN to issue a rare retraction and apology after facing pressure from Michael Cohen's lawyers. It said this. OAN apologizes to Mr. Cohen for any harm the publication may have caused him. To be clear, no evidence suggests that Mr. Cohen and Ms. Daniels were having an affair and no evidence suggests that Mr. Cohen, quote, cooked up the scheme to extort the Trump organization before the 2016 election. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:50:45 So he made up this claim and they got it published in an outlet and it embarrassed them, forced them to make her attraction. But that did not slow down the popularity of Tony Saruga. So when that happened, Tony Saruga had about 78,000 followers on Twitter slash X. But that number has more than doubled in the past few months. And he has more than 167,000 now. Just earlier this month, Saruga baselessly claimed that Rikers Island prisoned was preparing to receive Donald Trump so he could begin serving a prison sentence on September.
Starting point is 00:51:21 September 18th. Oh my God. That's so funny because I watched a Michael Flynn interview where he also claims that like they're going to put Donald Trump in jail. Yeah, that's not established quite yet. So what was true is that as of this recording, Trump's sentencing hearing for his conviction for falsifying business records is on September 18th. But Trump's lawyers have requested a delay for that hearing. It's possible the judge will grant it. And even if he is sentenced on that day, it's not a guarantee. who will actually serve any prison time. So why does Saruga say that Trump will start serving in Rikers? He just cites, quote-unquote, high-level sources. Doesn't specify who these sources are, what high-level means, why these high-level sources are speaking to them. He just said he has high-level sources.
Starting point is 00:52:09 But that claim, despite being based on nothing substantive, was just juicy enough for a right-wing YouTuber Tim Poole to take seriously. Tonya-Siruga says, multiple high-level sources have stated, The New York City Department of Correction is making arrangements for Donald J. Trump's arrival at Rikers Island in September. He tweeted this. This is just yesterday. President Trump will 100% be sentenced to prison on September 18th. I'm told the sentence will be one year, but we'll see.
Starting point is 00:52:37 The Marxist judge could change the sentencing at the last minute, but he's definitely sentencing President Trump to at least one year. Rikers Island already has special accommodations ready. This is two months before the election. This has got 3.1 million views. I don't know what his sources. This guy is just, he's a contractor. He's a philanthropist. CIA whistleblower.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Is that what he says? CIA NSA contractor, whistleblower, IntelOps. I'm assuming he's probably got some sources, but it is all rumors right now. I'm assuming he's got some sources. I'd like to beat Tim Poole to D. With a skateboard. Okay. Christ.
Starting point is 00:53:14 I mean, would he really go to Rikers, though? I mean, as like a federal employee technically, like wouldn't he go to some like government? jail, I don't know, like Guantanamo or something like that? I can't say I know. You know, when the mafia witnesses or whatever, when they go to jail, it kind of looks like a nice apartment on some military base. You know, wouldn't it be like that? They would just kind of recreate one of his hotels on a military base with, you know,
Starting point is 00:53:39 gold-gilded toilets and whatnot, make sure he's comfortable. He'd go to the Pablo Escobar jail. Yeah. Wouldn't it be funny if he escaped? And he, like, tunneled out. That'd be a fun news story. Tony Seruga's most recent popular claim that there's an Antifa army descending upon Chicago is according to him based on GPS data.
Starting point is 00:54:02 My ex-wife's phone. Now, what GPS data exactly? In his pin tweet, he says that he has personally indexed a massive amount of geolocation data, which he says he uses to contract with government agencies. Are we sure he's not just using Misunderstanding one of the weather apps And you know So red dots of a storm are coming in
Starting point is 00:54:27 And he's confusing them for Antifa Super Soldiers I don't think I think he knows what he's doing He is an inveterate liar Please use the Italian accent To treat us to this Me? Oh yeah My partner is in high of
Starting point is 00:54:44 Come on My partners and I have been lifetime data scientists. We own the digital ID of every mobile device slash computer in the U.S. and have indexed and archived every IP address in the world. Our extensive experience in big and deep data, including geotracking and geolocation, makes our dozens of data companies the top authority for providing data to corporations, law enforcement,
Starting point is 00:55:15 and U.S. government agencies like the CIA, NSA, D-O-D-D-I-A-N-R-O, FBI, as well as Interpol and foreign intelligence organizations. Oh, man. My experience in GERCII, meaty data. Yeah. Big, deep data. Data. Data. What really helped this Antifa claim get traction was the fact that he portrayed this
Starting point is 00:55:39 Antifa army as rolling into Chicago over the course of days. You know, a lesser hoaxter would just immediately say, you know, according to my secret data, you know, there's a 100,000 Antifa invading Chicago. But he took the more subtle and effective approach of increasing the number of invading Antifa day after day. So on August 15th, he tweeted this. GPS, over 30,000 international Antifa have already arrived in the Chicago area with approximately 500 to 850 more arriving each day. Why wouldn't he just say 500 to 800? 500 to 800.
Starting point is 00:56:14 That's much specific. He makes it sound. Yeah, he's got the data. But not 550. Not 550 to 850, 500 to 850. 850. 875 of these bastards, they're pouring in. This got over 5,000 retweets and 1.2 million views if Twitter metrics are to be believed.
Starting point is 00:56:35 I mean, I think those numbers are all fake. I'm getting way too many likes on Twitter recently. I think that Elon is like doing the thing that Reddit did. Juicing it. Yeah, where they made it. like an algorithm. It's not actually counting likes. Then I must be doing really well because I'm getting no likes.
Starting point is 00:56:50 So actually, my post must be being seen by a lot more people, but I'm getting the less likes. Yes, exactly. Yeah. That's what exactly. Jake is pulling a cat turd. My metrics are down, Elon. On August 17th, Tony Saruga provided an update. Now at 53,411 foreign Antifa and over 21,034 domestic Antifa already gathers.
Starting point is 00:57:14 already gathering in the Chicago area. So, yeah, he's very specific numbers, and he's divided them now between foreign and domestic Antifa. Mm-hmm. Well, he took the pledge to protect America against all threats, foreign and domestic.
Starting point is 00:57:28 Yeah, that's right. And there's it. Never mind, go ahead. On August 18th, he updated that number again. We are now at 61,1, foreign Antifa. And over 27,012,
Starting point is 00:57:44 Domestic Antifa in the Chicago area. The laziest specific. You can't do 61,001. That's so funny. That's just inherently funny. Yeah, it sounds like what he did. It was like, okay, I'm going to say 61,000. Ah, you know what?
Starting point is 00:57:57 It's two round of a number. 61,000 that one. And one, the one last straggler. He got, he got, he stopped at FAO sweets. He wanted to see the trains. You know, they got trains to go around the top of carrier the funnel and the suites at the sweet show. And that one last guy, he got sort of way laid over there.
Starting point is 00:58:18 Now he's joined him. He's joined him, so 61 and one. Are you referring to F.A.O. Schwartz as F.A.O. Sweets is a separate entity, okay? Yes, there is an FAO Schwartz. That's for the toys. But there's FAAO Schwartz. But there's FAAO Schwartz, and that's for the candy. Mr. Saruga, you mentioned a train in your first statement there, so that led me to believe
Starting point is 00:58:44 unless it was a candy train that you were, in fact, referring to F.A. The train, the train moves in between Schwartz and Sweets, okay? There's tunnels, they got underground tunnels. The train takes small candy children, and it takes them into the tunnels, and God knows what happens from there. One follower of Tony Sarugas mentioned that it seemed like things are troublingly quiet, quote, unquote. You know, given the assumption that there are 100,000, you know, members of Ventif on the city. It's all just movies he's doing like, he's quiet.
Starting point is 00:59:14 Quiet. Too quiet. But he responded with an explanation about why there appeared to be very little Antifa action in Chicago. Antifa has assembled into groups of 50 to 300 up to 35 miles away. Just appear to be hanging out. They're giving each other sticking posts. Some groups have been moving into the city, but not many. You could see. You could track him down by the trail of empty combustion. Butchabunds.
Starting point is 00:59:45 So he's saying, like, this Antifa army was divided into, like, Antifa companies, which are presumably commanded by Antifa captains, I guess. But Antifa is not the only threat to Chicago, according to Tony Saruga. He also claimed, bizarrely, that the area is being visited by malicious agents of the Chinese Communist Party. Yeah. GPS. At least 98 of these CCP saboteurs are now.
Starting point is 01:00:14 in the Chicago area. Many are likely there for gathering intel for Xi Jinping, but they're also taught to be exponentially opportunistic. Wait. Exponentially. Exponentially opportunistic. Yeah, I don't know what that means. I guess it's like, I think he's like means more opportunistic than just linearly opportunistic. Yeah, linearly. Um, yeah, no, I really want like a movie set in Tony Seruga's brain. It would be awesome. We should get this guy in Hollywood, actually. He seems like he wants to write. So it gets worse, according to the serial fableist, Tony Saruga, because he also said in a tweet that elite operatives of the Lebanese political party and militant group Hezbollah were also in Chicago. GPS. There are over 150 mobile devices connected to whom we believe
Starting point is 01:01:06 a Hezbollah Unit 910 in Chicago. 20 of these devices were previously based in Qatar. American brains are unprepared for the horrors about to besiege the U.S. America has been too soft for far too long. Hezbollah Unit 910 is just one of the dozens of enemies already here in the U.S. Hell bent on destroying and killing as many Americans as possible. Are they trying to attack the DNC? Is that what he means? Are they working with the DNC here?
Starting point is 01:01:37 Because, like, surely, if Hezbollah is attacking the Democrats and you're, like, you're like, sure, go at her. I don't care. Get her out of here. That's a real excellent question. I don't have the answer to because, like, in this story, he didn't explain what exactly the plans of the, you know, the Chinese operatives or the Hezbollah operatives were doing. Yeah, it's not so much a plot.
Starting point is 01:02:01 It's more of a premise, you know. People are gathering. They're coming in. They're coming in from many different places. We're not sure what they're here to do or what they're here to say, but they're here. I will say that, you know, bringing up American brains, I think they are prepared. They're prepared to be pushed out the nozzle of a soft serve machine. Now, obviously, just a string of endless nonsense, very, very popular, like I said, getting just thousands of retweets.
Starting point is 01:02:32 And I also want to mention, though Elon Musk has often, you know, claim that, like, false statements on Twitter can be countered with the community. community notes feature, which like attaches under a tweet to provide more context or do a fact check or explain why a false tweet is in fact false. None of the tweets I just referenced had a community note attached to them as of this recording. And he also has a blue check. This goes without saying. Yeah, he also has a blue check. Big following, just constant spewing falsehoods that are panicking a lot of people in the replies.
Starting point is 01:03:04 They're talking about what the, you know, the Chicago PD should do about this invading antifa. And again, no community note, no countering, just endless panicky nonsense. We recommend you lock yourself in your Tesla. There's no way to open the doors. That's perfect. These claims were so outrageous that they were fact-checked by Andy No, despite the fact that he has done more to stoke panic about Antifa than anyone. Andy tweeted this.
Starting point is 01:03:34 Those making these viral claims have not provided any evidence to substantiate them and are misleadingly using photos from other past events. So this is, again, another interesting instance of a real piece of shit, sort of like policing the boundaries of acceptable paranoia. You're not supposed to go this far. You're sort of creeping up on my territory. You're making my shtick look bad. You need to step back.
Starting point is 01:03:57 Andy Noe is actually in Elon's reign. In Elon's version of Twitter, Andy Noe is the Travis View. You have been dethroned. Wow, yeah, that's true. Yeah, it's so interesting that it's like, Julian, you said earlier that Elon's Twitter has just become this haven for neo-Nazis, conspiracy theorists and anti-Semites. And really what Elon set out to do was to raise the voice of the right. And I think it just kind of goes to show that when you're talking right-wing, like all they've become now is exactly that. Conspiracy theorists, neo-Nazis, and anti-Semites.
Starting point is 01:04:31 Absolute psychos. Awesome. Well, how about some sadness? Okay, sure. I was really happy about everything we covered so far. Yeah, no, I was having a blast with the anti-semitism. Well, here I am, here I am to bring down everybody's good time. Captain Jake, here to tell you about another tragedy at sea involving a tech billionaire, a super yacht, and a tornado.
Starting point is 01:04:54 Please play an air horn here, Corey. Wait, don't actually. Don't listen to him. Don't listen to him. Play it again. Okay. The latest marine tragedy being baked by multiple online communities involves a horrific accident off the coast of Sicily early Monday morning on August the 18th. At around 5 a.m., passengers on the super yacht Bayesian woke suddenly when the ship lurched to one side, according to one of the survivors. At first, they didn't think too much of it,
Starting point is 01:05:28 but when the windows of the yacht shattered under the force of the storm, the ship broke out into total chaos. The super yacht, Bayesian, 180-foot lugged. yacht, which charters for $215,000 a week, capsized during a brief but intense storm that some outlets are reporting as a tornado or water spout. Now, for those of you who haven't watched both Twister movies in the last month or so, water spouts are typically divided into two categories, fair weather and tornadoes. Fair weather water spouts develop in the open ocean, in the absence of thunderstorms, and usually occur in five stages, starting with a dark spot forming on the water surface and ending with a funnel that moves upwards towards a connecting cloud and
Starting point is 01:06:11 tornadoes are essentially just tornadoes that form over the water during intense storms or tornadoes that formed on land and moved out over a body of water. I think it's beautiful that like you're able to absorb so much information so long as it's depicted in movie form. Yes, true. Also, Bayesian is a reference to Bayes theorem. Bayesian analysis. It's it's kind of a annoying like Reddit statistics nerd type thing. It is a very Reddit name for a yacht. Well I mean in Reddit is this is you know we're we're diving into some Reddit community so that's it's appropriate. The bakers over on our tornado a subreddit dedicated to Stormwatcher hobbyists wondered if the event was even a tornado at all with one user writing all the locals are saying
Starting point is 01:06:59 that whatever happened it wasn't a tornado and the original poster replying to that. Yes it looks like some bad wind also hit land. Perhaps it was more like a squall line. That said, it was a pretty large yacht to have capsized. And I can't imagine the main sail would have been up with such weather approaching either. And then finally, to that comment, somebody replied, you are correct about the sale. It was down. This is a different language. To me, I have no clue what any of this, what's going on here. So users argued back and forth about the merits of the weather event being properly classified, even though almost every major media outlet had reported severe weather Sunday night with four inches of rain in under four hours in that area. The European severe weather
Starting point is 01:07:40 database even issued a report claiming that a water spout had formed over the area where the Bayesian was anchored. More than half of the comments on the subreddit's most popular post about the event agreed that under the right circumstances, a water spout could cause the yacht to sink. I definitely think a short-lived water spout could topple a yacht if it hit it head on in middle of the night and a security cam's footage from the short at some point shows extreme winds for a very short amount of time it could have been a very strong downburst along the coast as well given the security cam footage i would be very hesitant to go the conspiracy route here there clearly was extreme weather at the time of sinking unless you think quote they can create
Starting point is 01:08:17 tornadoes like this is just cause four or something very obscure game reference here just cause four yeah that's a great great little ref other posters however still weren't buying I don't buy this sunk by a water spout theory. This was a large vessel and would and should have been capable of coping with most cases of heavy weather. They don't build these ships without stringent tests on all aspects of stability, metacentric heights, center of gravity, roll recovery, etc., etc., and they certainly don't build them and then stick on a 70-meter mass that may cause it to capsize, so I don't buy that either.
Starting point is 01:08:55 Either by a catastrophic failure or accident or by some kind of human error, a vast amount of water has entered the yacht and destabilized her. There is a situation called free surface effect on ships where flooded water in an open space will rush freely from side to side and quickly destabilize the vessel, European Gateway, and I suspect something like that may have happened. As I've said, this vessel should have, under normal watertight conditions, been able to ride out the storm. To make matters more confusing, in an interview with the BBC, Stuart Campbell, editor-in-chief of Boat International, a publication dedicated to the luxury yacht industry, said flat out that he's never heard of a boat this large being sunk by similar weather conditions. Never heard of a boat, a 56-meter boat, being knocked over and sunk by a weather event like this. Today there's been a lot of kind of casual talk about this being a super yachts. Just try and explain to us what this vessel was actually like. Well, a 56-meter perini, it's supremely comfortable boat, super luxurious with all the accommodations and appointments you'd expect.
Starting point is 01:09:57 It was a beautiful vessel made for supremely comfortable traveling over the oceans. That's what it was really for, a trans-oceanic vessel, a supremely capable one. And should it have been able to withstand some rough weather? Yeah, absolutely. They are designed. They have to be designed to withstand extreme weather. This particular event was clearly so violent and so sudden and unforecome. that this wasn't expected. The captain would never have put the boat in that bay had extreme weather been expected.
Starting point is 01:10:25 There was a light offshore breeze forecast. So this sudden, immediate and very violent storm had obviously catastrophic consequences. So there were 22 people aboard the Bayesian when it sunk. Ten were crew members and the other 12 were some very powerful people. There was Jonathan Bloomer and his wife Judy, who were in their 70s. Jonathan is the chairman of Hiscop. an insurance provider, as well as the chair for Morgan Stanley's International Arm.
Starting point is 01:10:53 Among the other guests were Christopher Morvillo, 59, a high-profile New York City attorney and partner at the firm Clifford Chance. His wife Nita was also on board, as well as another lawyer from the firm and her partner. But the guest of honor on the yacht was billionaire Mike Lynch, 59 years old, who is often referred to as the United Kingdom's Bill Gates. He's a tech entrepreneur who sold his software company, Autonomy, to Hewlett Packard in two. 2011 for $11 billion. So Bill Gates, but somehow worse, basically. Yeah, and Mike received a whopping $800 million in the deal. In fact, the yacht's name, Bayesian, is named after the statistics used in autonomy software.
Starting point is 01:11:35 So yes, Bill, Bill Gates, but even more annoying. So, yeah, was that, like, an anti-British statement there? Yeah, and also anti-math nerd with debates and stuff. Yeah, nerd. You know, whatever way you want that to be. Well, we got them, folks. I mean, I think something else got him. The yacht is owned by RevTom, a company operated by Mike's wife, Angela Baccarus, who was one of the 15 people rescued by a nearby ship, who noticed that the yacht was missing after the storm passed.
Starting point is 01:12:09 So here's a quick clip of an interview from the captain of that ship who rescued the survivors immediately following the ship sinking. And in the life raft was also a little baby, and the wife of the owner, the owner and her child, I'm still inside, I guess. So it was a big disaster. After the storm was over, we noticed that the ship behind us was gun. Okay. And then we saw a red flare. Yeah. So my first mate and I went to.
Starting point is 01:12:47 to the position and we found this life right yeah drifting but anything inside with 15 people inside 15 people inside four people injured three heavy injured yeah and we brought them to our ship and then we communicated with the coast guard and after some time the coast guard came and later they picked injured people and when we one two hours later they picked up the other people with a light we saw that the ship was the side and then we saw a triangle so I think she went back terrible terrible moments yes there are other incredible stories of survival that have emerged in recent days like that of Charlotte Galunsky a partner at lynch's venture capital firm who held her one-year-old baby above the waves until help arrived.
Starting point is 01:13:46 She was quoted saying this about the incident in an interview. In two seconds, I lost the baby in the sea. Then I immediately hugged her again amidst the fury of the waves. I held her tightly, close to me, while the sea was stormy. Many were screaming. Horrible. Pretty horrible. And as of this writing, Mike Lynch, his 18-year-old daughter, Hannah,
Starting point is 01:14:06 Mervillo and his wife and Jonathan Blumer and his wife are the six missing persons, with one confirmed death being the ship's chef, Riccardo Tomas. The ship is about 150 feet underwater, and rescue divers are only able to search the wreckage in 12-minute shifts, making the rescue operation incredibly difficult and tedious. All of the missing persons are presumed dead at this point, and officials have recovered five bodies from the water since I began writing this segment. So it doesn't look like any, but any of the missing people have survived. Now, the voyage was meant to be a celebration.
Starting point is 01:14:43 Ever since Lynch had sold his company to Hewlett-Packard, he and his partners faced a slew of legal troubles. Basically, HP decided after the sale that they had gotten ripped off and that the leaders of autonomy had totally inflated the company's value and success. They successfully prosecuted Lynch's chief executive for fraud and had convinced the UK to extradite Lynch to the United States to be tried for multiple counts of the same crime. both he and co-defendant Stephen Chamberlain faced decades behind bars. But then something crazy happened. The two men were quitted of all charges. One of the boat's passengers, Christopher Morvillo, who was one of the people presumed dead, had served as one of the attorneys who had beaten the case against tech giant Hewlett-Packard.
Starting point is 01:15:26 The team had gathered on the yacht in Sicily to celebrate the stunning victory when the ship was hit by the storm and sank. Stephen Chamberlain, Lynch's co-defendant, was not on board when. it sank. And that's because he was in a British hospital fighting for his life after being hit by a car two days earlier. Okay. He was taken off life support the same morning as the storm hit the boat off the coast of Sicily. Okay. I can understand why conspiracy theorists are going nuts over this. So naturally, a different community of bakers began to pen their posts in the wake of such an insane coincidence. You either go to jail or we will kill you. Yeah. Basically, that's what they said.
Starting point is 01:16:08 You see, this man sells his company for nearly $9 billion, yeah? After the company buys it, they say there was fraud, you know. This company ain't worth no $9 billion. Where's the other $5 billion, bro? They write down $5 billion. They take this man to a court. Looks like he's going to prison. He beats it.
Starting point is 01:16:28 He beats it. Not guilty. Boom, not fraud. His co-defendant ends up dead. Car crash. accident always check them breaks yeah now he has gone missing presumed dead the team that defended him got him off they're presumed dead anyone connected to that case that helped him out are missing endangered had an accident or dead so yeah bro go to prison or we will kill you's what they said
Starting point is 01:17:00 this guy rules by the way yeah he rules i want to hear conspiracy theories from this guy now If this was a hit, a hit and run is a pretty believable way to make things look like an accident. But generating a tornado to sink a yacht is a little bit more tough to pull off, no? According to the folks on our conspiracy subreddit, not really. When one user writes, first guy was taken out, but the real coincidence is a storm killing the next guy. Sure, he was on the list, but nature took the lead. It really was a terrible coincidence. Negative two.
Starting point is 01:17:32 So two people have downloaded that. Shut up. Shut your mouth, Zaguchi 84. And then another user replied with this. Harp can manufacture any weather scenario on the dime anywhere they want. Who's to say there even was a water spout? There was for sure a freak storm. People caught it on video, but weather modification is no longer a conspiracy theory.
Starting point is 01:17:56 As long as people saw a freak summer storm, then the cause for a water spout was acceptable. But all they needed was the perception of one to sell it. water spouts last seconds to minutes. It was night. No one saw the alleged water spout. So who's to say there even was one for sure? The reason the boat sank was because the boat was at anchor. Any captain worth his salt would have raised slash cut the anchor immediately.
Starting point is 01:18:19 There was a delay and the mass snapped, unbalancing the boat and causing it sinking. Why were they below deck? Why were they not wearing life vests? Where was the emergency escape life boats? I love the backseat, like, piloting of the ship. On top of controlling the weather isn't a conspiracy theory anymore. Yeah, that's standard. Yeah, weather, murder, and ship specialist here.
Starting point is 01:18:44 Deep State Specialist Weather Controller here. So other users were pouring over grainy security cam footage taken from a nearby storm. They claimed the video looked much less like a tornado and much more like the blast from a bomb. Perhaps a drone had taken out the yacht, they wondered. And one of them wrote, Did you see the video that was recorded on land? Looks like a bomb went off during a small rainstorm. And another person replied,
Starting point is 01:19:10 Do you have the video? I can only find news clips. And the original poster says, I don't have the video. It was about 30 seconds of CCTV video that was part of the news broadcast. It showed it raining and a huge gust of wind that quickly went away looked exactly like a blast from a bomb.
Starting point is 01:19:26 Exactly. The footage that you can't provide looked like a bomb for sure. I was also kind of surprised to see a rare cue drop out in the wilds of Reddit and this day and age. It had two upvotes
Starting point is 01:19:40 and no one else on the thread seemed to push back or engage with it at all. It's just kind of there. And it reads, 259. December 5th, 2017. Red, Red, 9-11. Funds raised versus distributed. Oversight?
Starting point is 01:19:57 Seven out of ten plane crashes are targeted kills. Those in the know never sleep. That is seven out of ten plane crashes. Or ships? What are we talking here, man? Yeah. So, and that had two up votes. There you are.
Starting point is 01:20:14 Assuming the original, the original poster and one other. Better than the guy who dared question whether the currency was even warranted. So, yes, like two different weather fronts. These two vastly different communities are baking the same event but for different reasons. And the whole thing is incredibly sad, especially because, much like the Titan sub-tragity, there was a young person on board, and, you know, it sucks. It sucks, and it's going to be baked, and I would assume that more baking will come out of it, or it'll be forgotten in 36 hours as the next tragedy befalls us.
Starting point is 01:20:49 So hopefully, I don't have to report on any more marine tragedies for a while, but somehow I know that that's not true. No, Neptune always gets his doom. We're going to turn into a nautical disaster podcast, starting right now. I think that's right. I mean, Jake is obsessed with barger chargers. And I also did insult Poseidon's sun last week. You did?
Starting point is 01:21:13 Yeah, yeah, it was a bad idea. Liv, you're next. Don't go near any bodies of water. Yeah, don't go near any bodies of water. We've already seen the damage that tiny dogs can do to you. Imagine the ocean. Now she's the biggest dog of them all.

The global elites are planning to force humanity to eat feces and drink urine. According to a World Economic Forum insider, who claims that if you thought the prospect of eating bugs was bad, you haven't seen anything yet. Humans must begin chowing down on human feet.
Starting point is 01:23:22 to fight climate change, according to Klaus Schwab's W.E.F, which has partnered with Japanese scientists and Tokyo sewage to bring you what the Japanese are calling the shi-sburger. According to the W.E.F, the biosolids contain high levels of protein that must not go to waste in a world in which meat, including beef, lamb and chicken, will be priced out of reach of everyday consumers and reserved for the VIP elite.
