And you can tell our friends, and they can have my things when we're dead But we gonna live forever, but we gonna live forever Welcome to the BoyzCast with Ryan Long Yeah, I went to the riots I went there protesting for the police, that's what I did I went there with my Blue Lives Matter shirt, I was giving the cops high fives Bringing them snacks. You guys need some cashews?

Went to the protesters, spit on them. They told me they wanted me to get involved. That's what they said. We need you to get involved. A lot of celebrities, you know, they know exactly how you should handle this. Everyone's really got this figured out. Probably one of the most complicated issues in the history of the world. No, no, no. My side nailed it.

I can sum this up in a sentence it's obvious but 17 trillion factors involved in this one and everyone's got it figured the fuck out ice t said that he was watching me he said if i don't if i don't see you get involved out there i see he's gonna be pissed i said listen i'm a big svu fan i know you played a cop on a pro cop show and you're a little bit you're a little bit worried that people might. It's very interesting that Ice-T, he's really out there being like, we're watching you. If you don't, if you don't act the way that we want, we have our eyes on you. I'm like, well, it sounds like Ice-T feels a little guilty that he plays a cop on a pro cop show after writing Cop Killer. I don't know.

And you're like, well, that's just a role in a movie. Okay, by your logic, that art's not exempt. I don't necessarily care. But if you're going to have that opinion where you're like, do you get to be like a feminist and then you get to play the main character in a pro-abortion movie? No, you're on a sick show. I'm all for the tea. But you don't get to hold both those opinions.

And that's the gist of everything that's going on right now. Everyone's trying to hold all sorts of opinions. First of all, everyone's wrong, but everything, probably the most complicated issue I've ever seen was 17,000 people. All the woke people are trying to appropriate black shit. Like they've been doing since the beginning of time, you know, like act like we're a movement. I'm there. I see no one else. I saw there and I'm going to tell you all the things I saw there, but I, you know, you see people holding like trans black lives matter. Is this your, is it, what is this? You're jumping, you're jumping in. This is, this is one of my main things I've been always saying. There's a lot of causes that appropriate the black shit. Now my opinion

in a nutshell is that the cops have too much power and that police men need to be able to please people need to be able to, police people need to be able to be fired earlier. A guy should have been fired a long time ago. I don't even know how you could even see a guy all the, you know, on the, these videos of these police and then be like, no, whatever. And it's just fourth time. It's like, fuck, the guy should have been fired a thousand years ago. No shit. Some people say, oh, it's just white people protesting. You know, it's white people that are causing the, that are the Antifa that's causing the shit. And some people say oh it's just white people protesting you know it's white people that are causing the that are the antifa that's causing the shit and some people are like it's actually all it's both and this is all i ask you don't have to fucking agree with me i know that

everyone's got it figured out probably one of the most complicated issues ever but your sides nailed it whatever side you're on you got it covered it's you know case closed we got all the right opinions on our thing a lot of people have been saying that they go free thinkers, you know, case closed. We got all the right opinions on our thing. A lot of people have been saying that. They go, free thinkers should, you know, not succumb to the mob. There's two mobs out there. Just be clear on that. So all I ask is when you listen to me, pretend you're listening to me like you're talking to a fucking friend.

One of the boys is chatting. Not like you're fucking arguing with someone on the internet. It doesn't always have to be an argument. This is what I think. And you can take it or leave it. I've been thinking about this issue for four or five days. There's a lot going on. There's a lot of people that are taking very hypocritical stances.

There's lots of gross stuff going on. When people are like, I'm watching what you do. I'm watching what you're doing, okay? I've seen a lot of disgusting things. A lot of fucking liberal nonsense. And a lot of fucking people that have dug their foot in on the other side too. I've seen a lot of people that their whole thing was fake news. Everything's fake news. Now they're like, the news is actually nailing this one. You know, the news is always lying. But then

when they're, you know, when it says what they say, it's the news is on point now. Now, this is the these are the kind of experiences I've had with the cops personally. For example, when I when I grew up in Ajax, Ontario, Canada, you know, I'm not from New York. I grew up there and there was a police officer that his thing was when you cause shit, what he would do was he would give you five seconds to run. And if you took the deal, you could run away and then he would catch you and beat the shit out of you. And it was like a big joke, like, ah, that's yeah, that's so-and-so. He gives you a chance to run and kicks the shit out of you. That's just the way it works. You probably shouldn't be the way that it works.

If you're like, well, whatever, you know, how was that guy not fired? The cops that would use to take you out back of the, the club, the, the, there was like a, a big club called the, the government in Toronto and cops would take you outside. And it was a known thing that they would take you out and beat the shit out of you. And then eventually after like 25,000 people got beat the shit out of one guy called the, you know, one guy sued them. And then now the lawsuits started happening. They just bring you backstage and they just beat you up. Like you're like, like you're the fucking mafia. I remember when I was, uh, 13 years old, the cops got called to my house because I was playing drums too loud, very hard hitter. I don't know if you know that in music, it's very important to be a hard hitter. And then my mom, you know,

what she said was the cop came and the cop asked her out and she said no. And the cop started creeping towards her and he was holding his gun and he was like, are you sure? And he started like pressing himself against her and she's like, please get away from me. And then he goes, okay. And then he just left. And it was like, you know, these are the if you know cops, you know that they a lot of them have this fucking energy of like, of course, there's some good cops out there. But if you don't think that there's a lot of police with the energy of like, I'll do whatever the fuck I want. You see them off duty. It's it's not my favorite type of guy. So, I mean, to say to make this a liberal versus fucking whatever issue, it's not my favorite type of guy so I mean to make this a

liberal versus fucking whatever issue it's not, it's a little more complicated than that, there's a lot of cops that fucking think they can do whatever the fuck they want and the truth is a lot of them can, do you know what happened to me so I've been to jail a bunch of times not fucking for more than a night

or two but what happened was, you know, we got in this big fight and then the cops brought me in the, in the paddy wagon. And that was pretty mouthy. Listen, that's the other thing with, I'm going to be all over the place right now, but there's a lot of people that these protesters are kicking shit and they're ruining their own city. Maybe they shouldn't. Okay. I used to love wrecking shit. If I'm 16 and like we're wrecking shit. So, you know, some, there's some grifters that showed up to wreck shit. Sure. One of the funniest things I saw was this black dude that

stole a pair of shoes from the store. And then he, he, he walked out of the fucking thing, holding the shoes and he goes, these fucking kicks is for Floyd. That's one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I can't imagine something being funnier than that. But when I was in the paddy wagon, I was being a little too mouthy. Me and my friends were talking shit to the other people that were there because we had this big fight with them. And then they paddy wagons together. But we had this. Then they then they left me in the cop car because I kept talking shit, left me in the dark in the garage for an hour.

And then they came out. And when they got me, they threw me down the stairs and then beat me up, like punch me in the ribs. The whole thing threw me in the jail cell. And then they put me in there without my pants for some reason. And this is after they do the whole embarrassing fucking making you, you know, cavity search, the whole thing, you know, bend over all the nonsense. So if you don't think that there's a bit of an issue with cops being a little bit out of control, then you're out of control. These kicks are for Floyd.

Now, that being said, there's lots of stuff going on. And yes, there's some good cops. And then people say, you know, they start bringing up race stats. They're like, this isn't a black issue because cops kill white people more, but black people are just in those scenarios more. Even if that's the case, maybe it is still a black issue. Listen, if I was a black guy, I might be a black power fucking dude. I don't know. A lot of fucking cool black boys. So listen, I'm against the woke fucking nonsense as much as everyone else to be. But I just think if you think this is as easy as like my side nailed it, we got it. Now, the purpose of humor.

I'm going to fucking talk about this shit a lot, but I'm also going to tell you the 10 to 15 funniest things I saw at the protest. Because I've seen a lot of this. People being like, you know, humor isn't the most important thing. And sometimes social issues matter. And no, you know what? To me, humor is the most important thing. It absolutely is.

That's why it matters to me. Arnold Schwarzenegger once said to me, he said to me personally, Arnold called me and he said to me, Arnold once said, he goes, he's like, when I was, um, when I was bodybuilding, he goes, they could steal my car and it wouldn't even affect me. And so to me, all I've ever wanted to do was make great art. And you know how you have to do that. You have to have a free mind. You have to not be propaganda. And it probably has to be the most thing you care about. Maybe more than your fucking relationships and friendships and your family. You make a lot of sacrifices to do things sometimes. And maybe one of those sacrifices is that you don't get to take up every political cause. You know, people say,

you know, black lives matter. You, this is the one, no, this is the one you have to matter. What if I thought that pedophiles were the most important cause? What do you have to do that? You know, everyone doesn't have to be part of every cause. So I'm not going to get bullied into what I have to think. But the purpose of humor, if you want to be realistic, and this isn't a black thing or white thing. I know lots of people, one of my black friends was telling me something really funny. He was saying when he was fucking riding his bike home, every fucking cop car, not a cop car, every car was like honking at him in solidarity. Like, there he is, my man, we stand in solidarity he's like yeah i'm not protesting i'm just walking home it's like everyone

could be funny in these times and this is actually what separates the people that are really funny from the people that really aren't you know anyone could be funny when it's like an easy topic anyone could be funny when it's appropriate to do so a lot of times. But you know what, who's, you know what, how I'm wired? I'm wired to make jokes at all of the times. I don't say, you know, I'm this funny guy that all my life's dedicated to this stuff and that's what my friends think, but then something happens, I gotta go, no, but honestly, this is, no, no, no. Even if I was making a serious statement, I would still be thinking about funny things. So the entire time I was at this march, it was hilarious. Okay, first of all, when I was at funerals, probably the most I've ever laughed in my life

was at funerals. Literally. That's, I remember my, and so many people will tell you like, no, you're not supposed to, there's certain times for laughter and there's certain times. Yep. That's because you aren't good at it and you don't work like that. Your agenda is your thing and that's fine. But it's like when the celebrities have, have a disease. And then all of a sudden that's their disease. It's everyone has their agenda in life. Everyone's playing a different game. And sometimes you can support someone else's game. And I'll tell you, you know, you know, the games that I don't support is the media. I mean, that's my, one of my main things I've railed about. And by the way, they're complicit in all

this shit and they're complicit in the racism. You know, when you see these Richard Spencer guys and all that, and you're like, you guys made him, these guys were nothing. And the new, the media goes on and they, they love him. They get, they found a guy. They don't show a guy that's making a reasonable opinion. They found one fucking fringe guy. That's like America needs to be an ethno state. And they make him famous because there was, they couldn't believe their luck when they found that guy. You know, Vice literally couldn't stop running pieces. CNN's like, hey, this guy's making reasonable stuff. Like, no, we need Richard Spencer to go up there and be like, I think the fucking black

people should go back to Africa. And they're like, oh, they can't. They're not mad. They're salivating when they hear stuff like that. You see these people on Twitter that, you know, went full out, you know, all right wing, just making tons of money doing that. And whatever. Have your other have your political beliefs how you want. But you vice in these magazines don't get to pretend that they're not part of it. What happened is they did one thing.

You cancel them and you're like, you're kicked out of our game. And they're like, all right, I guess I'm in the other gang. You know, the same thing we've said about all this stuff. You don't get when you ostracize from someone from society and then another group takes them in and they're making millions of dollars off it. They're not going to lean into that. You don't get when a certain type of black person feels like he's not doing well. And then a gang's like, do this and it'll be the best.

You have unlimited pussy. You fucking unlimited money. And everyone's going to be afraid of you. Yeah, that sounds better than the other one that I was doing. So you don't understand people's incentives of how they act the way that they act. Now, I was at a funeral of my own grandmother. My mom was my mom was the one giving his speech. And then my uncle, his neighbor, they go, the priest goes up and he goes, does anyone else want to say anything? And my uncle's neighbor goes, I would actually like to say a few words.

Everyone is like, excuse me? My mom was the only one who said anything. So this guy goes up and he goes, you know, I didn't know a lot. I never actually met Gail, but I heard a lot about her. She sounds like a great guy. And literally immediately, I already go to my uncle. He's crying at the time. And I look to him.

I whispered in his ear, I think my mailman's going to do a few words after this. He literally bursts out laughing in the funeral. And he goes, ah, you know, Ryan, you make me feel better. That's what he said to me. I told my mom. I whispered to my mom. Because I'll tell you the thing he said first. So he stands up and then he goes, also, I consider myself a little bit of an entertainer.

He starts singing Elvis. My grandmother's funeral. Never met her. My uncle's neighbor. He starts singing, love me tender or some shit like that. Can't remember the song. And everyone is like, what the fuck? And I just whispered to my mom, sign this guy.

And my mom, she looks at me and she goes, oh my God. Everyone, honest to God, this moment was so ridiculous. It broke the tension. Now, the other time was one of my best friends, her dad died. One of my other best friends were at the funeral. We were sitting together. And again, it was a singing related thing. So the person that was singing was maybe the worst singer ever. They were singing God songs like, and it was, it was maybe the worst thing I've ever heard in my life. So we start dying laughing. I'm literally to the point where I bury my head in my tie. Cause I'm like, I'm going to, I'm going to die. If I fucking, if I even look up for a second, I got to plug my ears. And then eventually we're laughing

so hard. We're trying to not so hard not to laugh that it's like, you know, we're making essentially a spectacle. And then they go, it's the Catholic thing where you have to stand up and shake each other's hands. So me and my buddy, I have to stand up and shake each other's hands. And as soon as we shake each other's hands, we both sit back down and we're like, I'm dying. Right. And then on top of that, so this is, there's a, they do the thing where you have to get, go up and get body of Christ.

So we're already like, I'm about to die. And I'm like, we don't know how to do. So this, they're doing the handing out body of Christ. And at one point my body, this is,

there's a, there's a really fat guy. This goes for body of Christ. And then my body whispers into my ear. He goes, I'm pretty sure that guy just went back for seconds. I literally got up and walked out to the funeral. I went to the bathroom and he did too, followed me to the bathroom.

And then we both just burst out laughing for a good six minutes in the bathroom stall at one of our best friends, dad's funeral. Then a guy walked into the funeral and go, Oh, sorry about that. Oh my God. Okay. Sorry. Close call. Yeah. We just had to pretend we were laughing. Now this is this kind of stuff that separates the different types of people. Now I'm not telling you which person you have to be.

I'm telling you how I am. And that's what makes me laugh. And that's how I deal with it. I hate it when something bad happens to me and someone says, Oh my God, I'm so sorry. It's like, that's not how I want you to deal with me. One time, one of my friend's uncles, or I think it was, maybe his cousin died. Someone, one of his relatives died. I can't remember the same thing. And it was, you know, he talked about it. And I went up and pretended to give him a hug. And then I whispered into his ear, hey, I'm so glad he's dead. And he literally, again, killed it. He thought it was very funny we both had a laugh and he was like it honestly relieves the tension that's the whole reason people have humor in the first place I had another scenario where's the opposite where my uncle died and my

one of my close friends came up to me and they're like I'm so sorry is there anything I could do and I was just like yuck yes what you could have done is made a joke about it. Treat me how I, like, that's how I'd like to be treated. People like to treat you how they think they want to be treated. Now, there's a scenario. I knew that I could kill with my mom. I think I know her buttons. Maybe there's a certain type of person that's, I probably wouldn't whisper, I'm glad your dad's dead too. That's called reading a room. I know the scenarios. That's hopefully why I'm good at this. But to tell me across the board, there's no time for humor. You can suck my dick. How about that? You know? And that's why a lot of times that's what separates

the people that are good at this from the people that aren't. It's easy to play, you know, basketball and fair weather. How about play basketball when it's raining and there's thunderstorms and people are trying to punch you in the face? That might separate the good people from the bad people. Well, this is what separates the people that are edgy and good at, people that are edgy and good at, and the people that are the opposite and bad at it too. Because a lot of times you'll see these guys right now that are making a joke that's just coming across like, dude, fuck off. Like you just have to, it comes across like a guy, you know, tried too hard and you're like, it didn't hit. So it's, it, the, the thing about making edgy comedy is not just anyone should be able to joke anytime. It's like, yeah, these are the times that it's harder to do it. And hopefully if you're good at it, then that's, that's what it'll be. Okay. So listen, I, I try, I, and I've

been thinking a lot about all these things and how to try to make it funny. One of the things that is one of the problems with both these protests, because, you know, you know, COVID is completely over right now. It's done. You know, we had COVID. Now that's done. So we've all which should be the biggest takeaway of all of this shit is these people are full of fucking shit. All the people that were, you know, against you got to stay in your house now. They're all like, yeah, well, I mean, not for protesting. It's totally fine. And I've been consistent through both of them in that there's the same thing about the COVID protests. I didn't really want to go fuck with them because my opinions would be weaponized against them. And I a little bit agree with them. I don't think this lockdown was just, and I kind of agree with

the protesters. Are there a bunch of morons there holding Trump flag? You're like, how is this about? I thought we were talking about opening your business and now we got Trump flags up. So I did, I think there are a bunch of losers for the most part. They were protesting, but I sort of agree with it. And now this was the same thing. You know, I don't think the cops were right here. And I, and I kind of agree with what they're doing. Do I think protests got out of hand? Do I think the looting's wrong? Yeah, probably. Do I care that much? No, I kind of don't. Do I think it was funny? A little bit. my showing solidarity. I'm not going to go make a video making essentially that could be weaponized by right wing people. I don't or any any people the same way that when I did the COVID thing, I'm not going to make fun of these people. So all the fucking stay home losers can be like, oh, yeah, look at these fucking idiots, because I don't really think that. So that's why I didn't

want to make fun of them. Because when I make fun of something, I have a very, very specific take that I've formulated in a perspective that I feel very confident in and a point that I'd like to make. I don't really want to. I have lots of jokes that I think are funny, but I don't do them because I don't totally agree with them. And a complicated issue like this, these protesters, I'm like, I don't know. I kind of agree with what they're saying. I'm sure there's a million things you could point out that are wrong. of agree with what they're saying. I'm sure there's a million things you could point out that are wrong. And you say, you know, a lot of people, you know, Bernie Sanders comes out and he goes, what we should do is, is, uh, have nonviolent protests. And some people are like, we should have violent protest. I don't know. You know what the truth is? Maybe sometimes you need Malcolm X. Maybe sometimes you need Martin Luther King. I don't know which one this is. I'll tell you,

time will tell. Maybe this is getting people's attention. Maybe there's enough political will right now that a candidate could come out and be like, I'm the police reform guy. That's my whole thing. That's my one issue. I'm not the fucking trans people are amazing people. I'm not the women.

I'm the police reform guy that's my issue sort of like how tulsi gabbard kind of came out and said i'm anti-war and you saw that get a lot of steam so maybe the fact that all this stuff's happening there's going to be will for a candidate to say hey you know what my cardinal issue is that we need police reform and there needs to be able to be fired. And again, when I say all these people are complicit with it, I believe that the same way that all these fucking left-wing people are like, we need to grow the state and give them more power. And we're communists. It's like, guess what? The police are included in that. There's no world where we give the ultimate power to the government. And then we also shrink the police force, you idiots. So you're part of this,

all these Antifa people, you're like, oh, we're so against the cops. You're against the cops. You're campaigning for bigger government. What do you think happens when you get bigger government? They say like, oh, we grow everything except for the military and the police. It's a big part of it. You idiots. Let's raise tax, tax the rich. So yeah, you can give it to cops so they can strangle you. So there's a lot of things going on here and it's not as simple as that. So when I tried to make this funny, one of the things I kind of thought was I would make, you know, I could do something about the, you know, the people that are trying to be phonies about protesting. But, you know, it's again, it didn't feel like I cared that much about making that point

because it wasn't really the point that I felt strongly enough as much on this. that point because it wasn't really the point that I felt strongly enough as much on this. I thought it would be funny potentially to make fun of some of the fucking Antifa guys. And I made a video overdubbed that went kind of viral, making fun of these idiots trying to break the window and they couldn't break it. I'm going to tell you a lot of funny things in a little bit, but I'm going to get my points out because I don't want everyone to be like, well, what are you listening to the things that I thought was funny? And then wondering what my point is. I want to tell you where my position and then kind of be funny on it. There was, there was literally, um, what, so what I thought was probably the funniest thing that me and my friend thought

of is like, imagine Jimmy Kimmel, like sent a reporter out there and you're just, you're just interviewing people. Like, listen, I have to come out there and you're just, you're just interviewing people like, listen, I have to come out here and interview. I know protests are going on, but what we're doing is, Hey, Hey, black people, can you name anyone? The first person to name 10 Will Ferrell movies with a mouthful of smarties gets two tickets to glee, you know, and you're just doing all these, uh, you know, and they're like, dude, this isn't the time for this. You're like, you think I want to be here? Talk to my employer, Mr. Fallon. I don't want to be here.

And then I thought about making fun of every white person scrambling to make the perfect post. And there's lots of things to make fun of. But I didn't feel like that I felt that strongly about it other than what I already did do. Now, like I said, the thing that I thought the lamest of all of this, and this is the, you know, I always tell you when I get obsessed with points, the thing that I got obsessed with and what I've argued against. And, you know, when people say you want to be a free thinker and that's what I think makes, uh, you a good, a good artist. And people say, you know, you don't want to succumb to the mob. And it's like, just so you know, there's two mobs, right? Just so you know, there's not one mob. There's two very distinct mobs right now. And neither of them own me. I'm not part of either of your propaganda machines. If you look at just the same way that I said, if every single one of

your points, you're like, I have 15 opinions and every single one of them is part of like the liberal, like, here's what you're supposed to think. And Ellen has your points that like, maybe you should think, think about how you think about things, huh? The same way that if you're like, oh, you know what? Fox news just nailed it. I have 15 points in every single one of them is just the Republican agenda. It's like, well, you know what? You don't get to say you're a free thinker just because you don't think of this mob. There's another mob too. And all these issues are a lot more complicated. I mean, if you nailed it, I mean, I'm happy that on all these complicated issues, I'm happy for you that you have an opinion that you it's so obvious to you that you just nailed it. It's not a complicated at all, even though there's infighting among every

single sect of this, of this situation, but you nailed it. I would be happy for you if that's where you're at. The lamest thing that I think that I was the most against, I would say, was the also, you know, celebrities, people, whatever it was saying, we're noting what you do. I mentioned this before, but you know, your silence is noted. This is what you have to do. And you're telling like, like everyone's got to make a statement like they're a press secretary. My aunt Darlene has got to go on and say, dear Facebook, I have had time to process this events. All 6 billion people in the world. It's noted. If I'm not going to make a statement like the press secretary of the United States of

America, if you run a bagel shop, you need to weigh in on Black Lives Matter. I work at the coffee bean, but here's my statement. I've talked to my people and I've crafted my statement and let's get the teleprompter up and I'll read my statement to you. You have a responsibility to say what you have to say. Yeah. I mean, you think I have a responsibility to say what you have to say. Everyone does. There's a lot of people that think you have a responsibility to parrot their points. I'm not going to be fucking agreement porn for people. And listen, I might have a responsibility to my listeners to tell them what I think, because if I'm going to put myself in the context of being a cultural commentator,

and then I'm not going to, and then I'm going to like ignore big issues. I think I have somewhat of a responsibility. I'll tell you, you know, a factory worker probably doesn't have a responsibility. If you're a, if you're a comic that runs a podcast about the best avocado recipes and your jokes are about Uber, I don't think you have a responsibility to weigh in on a police riot. I just don't think that's the case. So I'm not, so I'm not taking anyone's purity test. It's like you're, when your girlfriend's, you know, you're dating a chick and she's like, do you think that person's hot? Do you think that girl's hot?

And you, and you have to tell me, it's like, no, I'll tell you, maybe you'll say, I'll tell you this once, but I'm not going to have this conversation again. I won't be bullied. That's how you handle that. The same thing is this. People say, I'm watching. You're like, no, no, no. That's not how this works.

You don't own me. You don't every, because as soon as you, you know, you give up 1% of the principle, you give up a hundred% of the thing. And it is true. You don't get to tell me once that, by the way, we're all doing black squares. That's what you have to do. And then tomorrow, it's, well, we're doing this. No, no, no.

So what if I start my thing? And I say, hey, because of kids of pedophilia, we're doing this. And if you don't put your square, you love pedophiles. That's not how it works. You don't get to talk to me like that. I'm not your slave. I'm no one's propaganda machine. You know, they go just that same way.

They go, it's important for you to vote. Everyone needs to vote. Vote or die, you know? And then it's like, you're like, okay, well, how about I vote for Trump? Well, no, you know, you can't. She didn't want me to vote. What you want is compliance with your thing. What if my opinion is blue lives matter?

Are you like, you know know i'm just happy you shared your opinion no you're not you're just you just wanted me to bend the knee which i might agree with people and this is the problem you sometimes bully people into a position where they can't agree even when they do because you don't want to get bullied around because a lot of times my fight against the media and people telling what to do and the thought police and you know their fucking war on speech and canceling people is my is definitely something that i've put myself in the center of so when you when all the people that i'm against co-op the fucking black against police killing people movement and they say also yeah yeah yeah yeah now glad you're on our side

if you think the cops are bad i go whoa don Whoa, don't you know, this is, I'm on neither of your sides. Okay. I do think that cops are fucking out of control. Now I've seen a million times that fucking woke shit tried to appropriate black shit. And I I've seen other races try to appropriate black shit. You know, like you'll, you'll see a Brown woman being like us people of color. That's what they people of color was started for. So black people could be like, yeah, we were slaves. We were like oppressed and they'd be like, yeah, people of color. That's what they, people of color was started for. So black people could be like, yeah, we were slaves. We were like oppressed and be like, yeah, people of color. Right. And they're like, what do you mean people that you, your parents are rich and you moved here and your parents are racist. Everyone's are, everyone's a little bit prejudiced. You remember when me too came up and it was kind of like, we're for progressive cause and intersectionality. And

it's like me to believe all women. It's like, well, how about this? Ask a black guy in 19 fucking 25 if you should have to believe all women. Do you agree that this has been used as a tool by fucking white women against black guys back in the day? OK, but it's just but these are not your different white women. So you're fine, maybe. But it's like, you know, that this doesn't these two agendas don't align. But it's like, you know that this doesn't, these two agendas don't align. And most of my friends, you know, black comics, most black dudes, I would say, don't fucking like woke shit. They have a masculine energy.

They think that shit's nonsense. So your causes don't align. You don't get to shoehorn black shit into trans shit. It's not the same cause. You're trying to clump them together. It's like, yeah, black power and gay power. You know what? What are you doing?

It's not really what's happening right now. Trans lives matter. I saw a guy with a trans lives matter sign at the thing. It's like someone has their birthday party, and you show up, and you're like, yeah, but it's my birthday, too. It's like, okay, well, then have a party for your birthday, but this one was mine. It's my thing on the wall. And you're walking around getting free drinks from everyone at the birthday party. Throw your own party. Okay. That's not what this one was about. And also it's important to fucking not lie about these things. You know, and I've been very, I've been super critical on diversity shit saying that, you know, for the most part it's, you know, doesn't work.

It just makes people mad. It's, and for the most part, it just makes liberals feel good about themselves that they're pretending to do that. That's an opinion that I hold in a lot of ways, but that doesn't mean that there's no racism. It's not like all or nothing. Everything's not binary. The same way that when I came here from Canada, I'm not the biggest socialist. I've been very, you know, I'm very against government taking over all sorts of shit. But then when people are like the healthcare in Canada was a mess, I'm like, all right, well, it wasn't though. Right. You know, I, I'm not going to lie. It wasn't the best, but like the way that people describe it, I go, that's not what happened. That's not what was going on right there.

The same way with this stuff. A lot of people will say, you know, there's no racism. Of course there is. It's, it's, I can't lie. If I'm going to make a point, you know, there's no racism. Of course there is. It's, it's, I can't lie if I'm going to make a point. You got to be honest with yourself if you want to try to make points. So everyone's lying. While there is a problem with police brutality, there's all these memes that'll be like, you know, it's not a piece of pie just because they get more doesn't mean you get less. It sometimes does. So like you have, every side has to be honest.

If it's a festival and there's 10 spots and they're going to be like, now we want to have six black. Of course that means there's less for you. So everyone has to be a little bit honest. If they want to segregate us by race, it's like, then it kind of does matter. You know, it does mean there's less spots if that's the case. And you want to segregate for race. I'm not for that. I lived in, you know, I grew up in Ajax, Ontario, Canada. Like I said, in a lot of ways, I feel like we're 20 years ahead of America because it was, and I feel a lot of ways. I feel like comedians are 20 years ahead of America because when you, the way that we

interact with each other and everyone, it's not like race doesn't exist, but we don't, people don't think they're better or worse than each other. But where the way I grew up, lots of different types of people, you know, my, like I said, I grew up in a family that was half black. That's just what it is. As my grandpa calls it, my aunts and uncles tainted the bloodline. His words, not mine. But you don't get to lie about everything. And then no one takes you seriously. As soon as he, this is what Cuomo said the other day. He's the governor, the governor of New York. He goes,

you know, they're all pan. Everyone's pandering right and left. Everyone's pandering to their side. And they go, this is what Cuomo said. He goes, these are different protests. He goes, these protesters are protesting because their lives are in danger. Well, the other protesters were protesting because they wanted to get a haircut. It's like, no, they weren't. You know that, you know, that the people, they were protesting because their businesses got shut down. Is that what you, are you that stupid? You're like, man, people freaking love haircuts. Jesus people. Oh my God. These guys need to fade that bad. That's not, you know, that's not why they're protesting. So you're lying. So I don't care what you have to say. And you know, a lot of people, every, there's a lot of people fucking lying right now and they're pandering to their base

and they're, they're pandering to their ideologies. If you want anyone to believe you, and I don't even care if anyone believes me or changes their opinion, but if you want to make anything that's honest and real, you can't just be lying all the time. That's what they were protesting about. So everyone's changing their opinions all the time. And it's a fucking load of shit. And there's infighting within the movement, by the way. You know, I've thought of a lot of the sides of this angle. angle and you know, the first half I've kind of said shit about cops.

Of course there's good cops. And then you go the other way and you're like, I'm sure maybe it's a fucking position that I'm in that I got some cash. I live in frigging Manhattan. I'm never going to probably live in a poor neighborhood ever again. If you're an old, if you're like a 60 year old black grandmother raising kids in the fucking, in some terrible neighborhood, you might say, you know what? Actually, we need more cops. There's infighting among all these groups. Not everyone agrees. That's why sometimes it's it's disgusting when people try to not only do the original causes not agree, they try to clump 30 causes in and not agree.

And then you're like, what are we even talking about? So, you know, and the big debate was I saw Killer Mike. He's, you know, he's kind of like a Bernie guy. But I like the Run the Jewels. And like I said, I thought they were pretty cool. One time I went to watch him. We did something with the Hard Times and he went on stage. He just literally did 10 minute speeches about Bernie every time.

And you're like, OK, whatever. But he went on and he kind of said, you know, it's important for us to protest. But we can't burn down our own cities. Makes sense. I don't know. Maybe this is the time for burning down your city. I don't fucking know. Probably not great.

But it's not obvious what the answer is. I mean, I've been saying myself, Bernie Sanders, you go, the reason this guy's not going to win is because he doesn't have the killer instinct. You know, he doesn't have the real punch when it takes. Well, this is probably what it takes. It looks like if Bernie did have the punch when it took, when it counts, this is probably what the other version looks like. This is what the Malcolm X version looks like, you know, and now the cops getting arrested and maybe now the other cops. So I don't know. Maybe it did work. Who knows? Maybe it made things worse. I think when you do in a drastic move like this, you're taking a chance. So it's like, you're like, this move is not, or maybe there was a percentage chance that it would work

a percentage chance that it didn't. And I guess we'll see. So what do you want them to do? Post online? I don't know. Maybe this was the move. Pat themselves on the back. That's what everyone celebrity did. They pat themselves on the back and they go, I put a square there. I'm one of the good guys. You know, anyone else is bad, but I'm, I'm one of the good guys. This thing's a fucking landmine is what it is. If you're a normal person, I do not recommend getting involved in this issue. It's a fucking landmine. There's two parties. They operate like different countries. Who is Trump even negotiating right now? It's like the Democrats and Republicans are like two countries. They both need their own leader so they can meet and be like, all right, what are

the demands? Like what, what are they asking for asking for do they want this is what they should be asking for is that if a cop has a bunch of infractions he should be fired you shouldn't get to almost kill four people and then you're bad boys will be boys because you know boys will be boys i don't think any of my boys are gonna kill fucking four innocent people they might kill innocent pussy but i don't think that's the way it's shaken down with the dogs. So maybe I should be in jail or at least fired. So all of this being said, if you live in a city where this like remove all this politics shit from for a second and be just a human being and there's frigging protests going on in your city, human being and there's frigging protests going on in your city, it's pretty fun to go check it out. I went, you know, I had a ball. Me and my boys went, I had some beers, fucking making jokes.

I was having fun. One of them, I watched the craziest shit I've ever seen. Like I said, when I was young, I got in a lot of trouble. I used to break, when I was 14, I couldn't, I couldn't get enough of breaking stuff. We used to break into schools and smash shit and put it on cameras. I loved it. So, you know, you look at these kids and you're like, oh, okay, fine. You're the dad now. Telling people they shouldn't smash shit. That's what I do.

I'm not out here telling a 14-year-old, like, I don't know. Maybe if it's my kid and I'm like, I guess I got to be a dad now. I'm not here to be a dad to fucking kids. If you're a teenager and people are saluting and you're like, hell yeah, dude. And there was both people on all sides. There was a bunch of dorky ass Antifa people there. First of all, there was a lady that was a dorky ass Antifa lady. She was in front of the crowd.

She's walking around being like, all right, guys, let's do this. Get your masks up. We're going this way. Like she's taking charge. And it's both. Some of the one March I went to was a lot of black people the one on march i went to was a lot of dorky ass antifa people doing dorky ass shit like first of all they were they were getting the banks right so they're breaking down the doors of the

banks and then they're like yeah for capitalism and it's like again it's like i mean yeah but this is kind of about like the police brutality thing and it's it's i've never seen more appropriation of people's movements than I have in the last little bit. Now, I saw some of the funniest things in the world there. First of all, whenever first I'm going to say that it reminded me a lot of the Raptors parade. So when the Raptors in Toronto won the World Series, big deal. Toronto rules. And then when we won, it was it was first of all, we had like nine thousand parades. The city couldn't get is the biggest thing that ever happened to us. Every fucking second,

there's a new parade. Right. And then it was, the energy was hooting, hollering, smashing shit. And, and just, that's what it is when you get people down there with that much energy. It was kind of cool to watch. You're like, fuck yeah. I mean, yeah, you're smashing in people's stores and it sucks. And you're smashing, like, you know, sometimes you see the odd idiot smash a fucking convenience store. And yeah, that sucks. It is what it is. So there's all these people smashing. So people, this is the gist of the first March was I went at night.

It's the fucking purge, literally the purge. So there's this huge group. They run around. They're chanting they're they're they got dmx playing by the way so they start playing dmx and then halfway through uh like maybe 20 minutes later they played the same dmx song again like the sort of the dj that was at djing the march kind of was like yeah i i didn't really uh didn't bring that big of a playlist my riot playlist only had six songs on it, so I guess we're going to spin them again.

They were, they break the window, and then everyone would run in, loot stuff. I told you, the guy kicks for Floyd. Everyone's like, fuck yeah. And then immediately, as soon as they got out, everyone immediately started being like, yo, I got a 36 here. Who's got a 32?

I saw this gay guy. He's a gay Asian guy. He goes, ugh, these are only 32. Does anyone have 34? I got 32. He's mad because he didn't get the right. The one Mexican guy, I saw him gay guy. He's a gay Asian guy. He goes, oh, these are only 32. Does anyone have 34? I got 32. He's mad because he didn't get the right. The one Mexican guy, I saw him got this bag. It was like a North Face bag.

He goes, holy shit. He was so happy. I've never seen anyone happier in a whole life. So people were loving this shit. It was like Christmas morning for all sides. And then there was the odd Antifa person that was kind of like a professional protester. They don't care what the march is. They're like, we're marching. They're like, what's it for? Actually, I don't care. They couldn't be happier to be there. They had all these, so they had all the things, you know what I mean? They're carrying first aid

kits. Like this is, they're cosplaying rioters and they get to be there. And it's the funnest thing they've ever seen. So they kick in the doors and they're all like, all right, guys, masks on. Remember not to show your face. Camera cameras right there. They've got the whole thing figured out. Right. So that's the funniest part was when one guy started selling jeans, he goes, I got 36 polos, five bucks. Like they immediately turned it into a junk market on the street. Super funny. And then the other thing where people will say, oh, they're only hitting, uh, they're only hitting big stores. It started like that. And then it was just like, I don't know. Fuck it. It's a fucking riot. That's what happens. That was one of the funniest things. I would say 90% of the protests from what

I saw was Antifa people. The, the, this is the, I'm doing the, I'm going to switch back and forth, but this is the, the night one, the purge. They're dragging garbage cans on the street. So they've got, they've got a've got a whole list of things they do. So they drag the garbage cans on the street. They light them on fire. Then they light cop cars on fire. They got a whole system. But honest to God, 90% of the protest was dragging things on the street.

So they drag all the garbage cans on the street, and then they move on and they drag more. And there's like four or five Antifa people in charge. Like, you get that can, you get that can. They're calling it like they're a football quarterback or whatever. The guy that maybe, I don't know, whoever in football calls the things like that. 54 can there, can there. If you were watching and you didn't, uh, and you, and you didn't know what was going on, you'd be like, Oh shit, these people hate garbage. It literally seemed like a strike against garbage. Cause 90% of it was dragging garbage around. Okay. Most of the chance,

and this is the day protest, the nice protest, 90% of the chance were about the NYPD sucking their dick. I don't know who invented this, but so much of the signs are like, NYPD suck our dicks, girls, guys, everyone. All of the signs was about getting their dick sucked, which is so fucking funny. I would say two out of every 50% of the chance, every four, every like chant, it would probably be like one on one off of a chant about like suck our dicks, different versions of a chance. You know, we fuck you guys are blue. Suck our dicks. Our balls are blue. It's all, they're very into getting their dick sucked by the NYPD to the point where the NYPD be like, if yeah, can if we did suck their sucking your dicks, would that be would that make you happy? Because it really seems like the number one demand is you hate garbage and you want your dick sucked. That's what it feels like. Also felt a little like wrestling and the Raptors parade.

Back to the Raptors point. One of my friends said this. He goes, I've never seen more bandwagon jumping since the raptors uh won the cup and it's cringier now a lot of bandwagon jumping i saw this i saw two black kids or two white kids they were wrecking wrecking a store window and this uh kind of like woke black chick starts yelling them she goes you're ruining the movement this is not what this is supposed to be for and you're like in the background you can see literally like a bunch of black dudes like

breaking a window behind her and you're like but it is funny to watch these these antifa guys kind of be like oh man because you know that they're like right black people sick right and she's like stop wrecking stores and they're like what we win. Like, I'm trying to freaking impress people and can't win. So there's that vibe of it. You know what I mean? And the same thing I saw. There was outside of a shopper's drug mart, right? There's a guard there.

His job is just to be the guard at shopper's drug mart. So he's, sorry, at CVS. I said the Canadian one. He's the guard at CVS. I posted some videos about all this stuff, like all the wild shit was happeningadian one he's the guard at cvs i posted some videos about all this stuff like all the wild shit was happening but he's the guard at cvs people keep coming in and stealing shit or whatever but at first he's kind of like no you're not coming in here and then eventually it's like 25 people first of all one of them fell over and fell on glass pretty

funny and then one of them so eventually he's like fuck it all right like yeah i'm getting paid 15 an hour to be a security guard or whatever. Like, yeah, free for all. And then one black guy runs in his face. He goes, ha ha, you gonna get fired, motherfucker. How funny is that? And then at the same time, there was a mixed guy, sort of like a, could have been almost like a half Latino, half black guy, you know, a little ambiguous.

He was yelling the same sort of thing. Like, you guys are ruining our cause. This is not what this is supposed to, you know, because again, half everyone's there with their own stupid agenda. Just like everyone not there's there with their own stupid agenda. He goes, you are ruining our cause. And then the black guy goes, you shut the fuck up. And then the guy goes, no, I will not shut the fuck up. I am here for social change. And then a group of black guys just threw an egg at him. He just, it just goes, I am here for, and just an egg just hit his face. And they're like, how about that?

Here's some social change. And again, they're both right. These guys are like, shut the fuck up. And he's like, I thought we're broke. Come on. I thought we're protesting guys. It's like, you know, you show up for the thing and you're, yeah, guys, let's make social change.

And then they start wrecking everything. And you're like, what the hell? So there's a lot of things going on there. I saw a big, fat, 500-pound black lady. She had a bowl of paint. She had a bowl of paint. And then she, so I don't know. She's carrying this bowl of paint together all day.

She's like, I'm going to, you know, someone's getting painted. And then a cop car, it's almost like after the march was over. So she held the paint for a while. She kind of thought things were going to get a little more aggressive and then they didn't. Takes the bowl of paint. There's a cop car. I can't believe how many cop cars I saw on fire, by the way. Big cop like van sort of rolling by. She runs across the street, takes the bowl of paint, throws it at the cop car and she goes fucking pigs or whatever. Right. And then she runs away, the cop car and she goes fucking pigs or whatever right and then she runs away runs i am not kidding you 20 steps then falls tumbles down a hill like not a hill like a uh just a little a little uh like down kind of a curb that was on a slant tumbles to the bottom and it was literally like

grape lady where she sits there and she goes ah all the Antifa guy roll over with their kit because he's got the first aid kit. They start bandaging up her leg because I guess she hurt her leg, right? But it was, and I've said this in my standup where it's kind of like where people, I said I knew a big, huge guy that was gay. That's pretty funny, right? Because it's just a funny picture and like a big burly guy being gay when he came out of the closet. And then people are like, what's funny? How is that funny? A like a big burly guy being gay when he came out of the closet and then people are like what's funny how is that funny uh you know a big huge muscular guy being gay and go it's funny a fucking you know i love head butts and dude's butts like it's it's

funny to watch a really big guy be gay i'm sorry there's certain things that are just funny and that's one of them the same reason that if you see a fat lady rolling down the street i don't care who you are i don't care if you're the wokest king of wokeville and you see a fat lady rolling down the street, I don't care who you are. I don't care if you're the wokest king of Wokeville and you see a fat lady that's run down the street. Well, then you've reprogrammed your brain sister to be a robot that can't laugh because I'm sorry, that's just funny. So second of all, not second of all, I got a few things. I was making notes. I was there as a journalist. I saw a friggin' really drunk guy. So he was in the protest, right?

And he's like hammered. Like the type of guy, you know when your buddy's like muttering to himself, like he wants to tell you what you really think. He's kind of like, well, whatever. If you fucking, if you don't, maybe you just fuck yourself. You don't even like me. We don't even, you know, if you're a real friend. He just, fuck yourself you don't even like me we don't even you know if you're a real friend he just he can't even make sense he's just saying stuff

that was this guy he was marching lost all his friends just drunk literally the the i don't think the guy's name was bernard from uh wayne's world that's always drunk if you're gonna spew spewing this he's that guy he's just he's so drunk he's just going and he's muttering to himself he goes the freaking the poor people are oppressed. Friggin poor's are oppressed. There's people dying. They don't have any money. Like he doesn't even know what it's about. He was muttering about poor people mostly because they're poor. People are dying in the streets. And you're like, what streets? Because that's not really what this march is about. Poor people are dying in the streets. And then on the same token,

I saw an Uber guy, like an Uber Eats guy. It wasn't Uber Eats, but a eating delivery service guy that got caught in the parade. And then he's driving, he's driving in the parade, gets caught in the parade with his Uber, his bag full of food. And he's like, excuse me, excuse me. And he goes, well, I guess a motherfucker's just going hungry then he just he just decides to be part of the parade he's on his bike and he goes i guess all the motherfuckers just getting hungry again that was a really fun one uh another funny thing was there was some white dudes so for there actually was chance my buddy started a chance so i was the first day i went with a chick second second one i went with like some some of my bunch of comedians. And we're having a ball.

It was so fun. And then there was one solo white guy yelling revolution. He goes, so some people would do the revolution, revolution. And my boy actually started chanting. He said the same thing. He goes, it's like wrestling. It literally felt with actually started chanting. He said the same thing. He goes, it's like wrestling. It literally felt with all the chanting. It felt like, because I went to wrestling and there was a guy that no one knew that came out.

And everyone started chanting, we don't know you. Hilarious. Everyone's just like, you're a nobody. No, you're not going to try to sell us this kid because they built him up. Like there's this big new character and everyone's like, we don't know you. Wrestling fans are just not having it. So basically, my boy got some chants started. He was like, NYPD, suck our dicks.

And he stood on the thing, and he got some chants going. I was like, nice, dude. So then there was some white dudes that were kind of Antifa-style white dudes, like professional protester types. And they got on the thing, and he goes, Re thing and he goes, silence. No one got on. And another black guy was like, and then he's like, he really tried to get the chant going. Nothing funnier. It's like the guy that had the, at the baseball game that tried to start the wave and it never caught on hilarious to watch. And you often just take the L and pretend it didn't happen. Again, the main, the main,

the main thing that I found funny was the main Antifa girl that, uh, was really in charge of everyone. And she kept giving people pointers and she goes, don't make sure when you do this, it's like, Hey, if you get tear gas, there's water. Okay. We got cops coming up on here. And it was just like, shut up. She had her dreadlocks poking out of her stupid Antifa mask. And it was, you could see all the black people be like, shut up, shut the fuck up. She had her dreadlocks poking out of her stupid Antifa mask. And it was, you could see all the black people be like, shut up, shut the fuck up. Just this like stupid white hippie chick, like taking over their movement. It was just like, shut the fuck up. You loser. Capitalism sucks. Yeah. Okay. Well, this one isn't about that though. Um, one of the, one of the, uh, funniest chance they kept saying, don't shoot, don't shoot.

And me and my friends, uh, thought it was pretty funny when they go, that was imagine, uh, to yourself, you're about to have sex. You're, you're like in the middle of sex with a girl and that's what they're yelling. They go, don't shoot. You're like, I can't, I'm trying to don't shoot. I don't, I'm almost there. Don't shoot. Okay.

Think about baseball. Don't shoot. I'm trying to get to your girl chanting to you. Don't shoot. I'm going to come. Don't shoot. Okay. Think about baseball. Don't shoot. I'm trying. Like it's your girl chanting to you. Don't shoot. I'm going to come. Don't shoot. I can't stop it. So that was a funny one that I was, that we were toying around with when we were there. Saw another guy who was at the protest and he was arguing with his girl. And this guy, I was there for 12 hours. Saw a lot of stuff. One guy arguing with his girl at the protest. So he's on the phone and he goes, I'm at the freaking protest right now. And she's like, well, you need to come home. He's like, I'm freaking protesting.

And he's trying to argue with his girl. So he's like, you know, he's telling her, he's like, what am I supposed to do? We're in the middle. It's about doing progress, babe. And his girl, so his girl, obviously his girl was like, I don't want you going to the protest because of COVID, which doesn't exist anymore, apparently. Oh, he can't go. And then he goes, he's bleeding with his girl to let him be. I need to be a frigging protester. You don't want to get it. Too much social change I'm doing out here. Okay, fine. How about this? I'm allowed to protest, but I won't break any windows. Can we compromise? And when I come home, then I'll go to your, I'll go to your mother-in-law. I'll go to

my mother-in-law's house and I'll buy a really good gift. Can we compromise? Like he's obviously just fucking domesticated as fuck, but he still wants to be the protest guy. They were putting barricades up. A lot of putting barricades up. So this is a big part of the Antifa guys. The black guys had a little less interest in putting the barricades up. But they would, so they, you know, there'd be metal dividers everywhere. They would grab the metal dividers and then they would put them in the middle of the road.

They would put them everywhere. They put them in the middle of the road. And then they'd spend like 20 minutes doing it. And the cops would just drive by and be like, just drive a little bit slow, drive right through them. And then they'd be like, oh, okay. We just spent 25 minutes doing that. So that was pretty funny. Um, it was, it was basically supermarket sweepstakes for some people. That's probably the gist of it. Um, older protesters kind of in the same vein as the uh as the protesters that the guy that was on the phone with his girlfriend i saw two older protesters which to be honest maybe

you could put me in that category that i was like they're just talking shit about other stuff talking about comedy and making fun of shit and there's older protesters probably like 48 but you could tell they used to be protesters but so so they were just two guys, two white guys just walking together and making small talk like the just the essentially someone other than that, how's work going? You know, you know, good days and bad days as the wife. Oh, you know how it is. They were making small talk as they marched in the protest. So that was really funny. One guy in rollerblades. Not much to say about that other than that's just a funny thing that I saw. The guy that uh one thing you didn't see in the video that I posted where I overdubbed my voice of the stupid nerdy antiva

guy trying to break the window he goes and then eventually a chick came and she broke it with a rock and you could see that this guy was so like oh all right well I loosened it up for you it was that vibe where he tried to break it for a good 45 seconds and then some chick just came and broke it with a rock in one second. It smelled really bad. That was like a thing that general, that was just the general gist of the night protest

and it smelled terrible. I mean, it could have been partially because everyone was smelly. It could have been partially because there was garbage cans being thrown everywhere. I'm not really sure. There was cops filming for the news, right? So a lot of the cops were filming. I saw this guy, he's filming for Al Jazeera news or whatever. And I thought it was, it was making me die. The idea of yelling up and doing a fucker in the pussy right now, Baba Booey, Baba Booey, Baba Booey, Baba Booey. The guys, you know, we're here in the center of

the rights, Baba Booey, Baba Boo the rights so that was making me die and then it would be the most epic fucker in the pussy in history and then I was watching through tiktok which by the way I was arguing with someone they go tiktok censoring it's like no no that is the and I know some people here probably think tiktok's lame and it might be but that is because instagram's all activists and stuff tiktok's people posting videos from the thing. It was probably the most accurate representation of what's going on. I saw literally, I saw cops, I saw protesters antagonizing cops and showing up and you know, I was watching TikTok and you just see this, this normal guy, you know, this cop just trying to do his job. And you see this guy coming up to me, look at you. You look like a fucking

piece of shit. Faggot. Look, your P your face looks like a penis ha ha motherfucking face looks like a penis and then he uploaded it like this cop looks like whatever you know just antagonizing cops i saw these antiva guys throwing stuff at cops and then i saw cops beating the shit out of innocent people i saw both of it you see cops i saw a guy on the ground and it's like he's like i can't how my back my back and he's just punching him in the back and he goes, stop my back. And the cops just punching him and elbowing in the back. And you're like, yeah, these, I saw all of the things. So I don't think that they're censoring. I think it's actually probably the best place to see because it's straight up people on both sides uploading. I think to be honest, maybe it's a little bit of a, you might get a tiny bit of a fucking liberal slant because I bet you it's mostly in cities and those cities might have that slant.

But I think other people were uploading other people's videos too. And there was lots of people there from lots of different sides. So you're just straight up, everyone there uploading their videos. This is what we see. So I honestly thought if you want to just not listen to the fucking lying news and make your own opinion, that's probably the best. Cause I, like I said before, all of these people that, that say fake news all the time, all of the, and then, then now it'll show them, this is what it is. This is what's happening in the protest.

And they're like, yeah, see, it's even on the news. It's like, I thought we all agreed that you can't trust these people. They're the biggest liars in the history of the world. They've gotten caught in scandals. These media companies get literally caught giving electoral candidates freaking questions. Don Lemon's out there. He's campaigning for candidates. These aren't these are propaganda machines and cannot be trusted. So, you know, if you actually want to look what's happening, go through those videos, make your own opinion. That's what the other thing I was at union square. So the, the cops own union square it because everyone is the, when I was walking through

the streets of the, of the purge protest, so basically they walk around the whole streets, breaking windows. And then every once in a while, a cop car would come behind us and then they'd go, ah, we need to get out of there. But for the most part, it was uncontested. No cops. Maybe they showed up later. I left at some point. There's a curfew now, which, by the way, did I not call in my video?

I'm the new Simpsons, by the way. I said, I think the police should give us a bedtime. Well, now you got it. You have a bedtime. So the police should give us a bedtime. Well, now you got it. You have a bedtime. So the police ran Union Square. And the funniest part was they had that locked off. 10,000 police. I don't know.

I don't know what the numbers are. I'm 10 billion gazillion police are at Union Square and they're all right there. And they're there. They've got this one section off. Right. And if you walked through there, I was trying to eventually walk home through there and they go, this street's blocked off you and they're very aggressive right but the funniest part is that they you're like okay but every other street there's people walking around like

torching cop cars and they're like yeah but not here it's kind of like the cops are like yeah you're fine you can have those streets but not not this street it's like it's like the one guy that lives with his girlfriend and she runs the house she's like you can't do this you can't do this he's like well i got my man cave though like the cops had their man cave of the city they're like wow with my rules when we're in my square and you're like yeah okay but they literally took over the rest of the city and you can't do shit about it so it felt very much like the cops were kind of like we'll consider this a win they can't get in here and if you looked at the for the most part the cops just didn't want to freaking there was you know the certain cops that probably this was they couldn't be happier just like when you probably in wars there's certain

soldiers they're like we doing this and everyone's like dude we got conscripted i hate this i don't want to die i think because i saw the faces of some of these cops and everyone's just like, fuck you pigs. And a lot of these cops are just like, this sucks. But the, one of the funniest ones I saw was one of the protesters go up to one of the cops. Cause it's actually sort of peaceful at union square because it wasn't real protest because of the protests are marching around at this point,

but there's still a lot of protesters there. So one of the protesters goes up to the cops cops standing there you know they got their rag here on or whatever and then he kind of goes up to him and he's like hey um you know you know why we're protesting right and the cops like oh fuck here we go so the guy's like just so you know we're protesting because the police protect it's a white guy and he's telling them all about it right it's like it literally felt like when i finish a comedy show and a guy comes up to me and he's like you know you gotta check out louis. You're funny. You know why you're funny? You know why you're funny? Because you don't give a shit what they think. And you're like,

okay, you got the scoop. Like, okay. Oh, is that why? You got a scoop. And he's like, yeah, let me buy you a beer. And you're like, nah, that's going to be an expensive beer. You can buy me a shot. That beer is going to cost me seven minutes of you spitting in my face. And that was what the cop was getting from this guy. He's just like, cause the thing is the thing is the cops, the cops, they're, they, you know, and I'm not, not you. Like you seem like a good guy. He's, he's kind of, he's between you and you, you seem like a good guy. But so the protester is, uh, he's telling the cops his whole opinion and the cops sort of like the cops sort of like I first the cop was doing what I say. But then eventually the cops started giving his opinion like, you know, well, it's out of hand sometimes and we don't know what to do. So they actually start talking about it and they kind of had a conversation and then it was like, all right.

Anyway, see you later. And then they went back and the protester walked over and he put his sign back up and he's like, and why? And it honest to God god the only way to describe it was the fucking coyote and the sheep dog from fucking looney tunes where it's like all right good day frank good day and they go back to work fuck you pig and then they clock out and they're like you know yeah nothing personal it's so that was very funny to watch that nonsense white girls got called karens there was a fucking it is funny because like they're i've been saying this forever the white chicks are fucking in the outs with the black community but it's so funny because these karens will be like uh these women will be like

i support black people and people will be like fuck you karen they can't win and you can't win with any of this one it's such a landmine but this this some of these times actually show who's actually fucking real and who's actually doesn't. So all these people that were, I saw someone online and they posted a status that said, Hey, I'm crowdfunding. And they asked their followers, they go, if anyone can donate, I'm going to crowdfund money for the store. Instead of donating their money, they tried to crowdfund money from their followers. It's like, shut up, shut up, just shut up for two seconds. These people that are online fucking virtue signaling they're, they're for themselves. They like having depression. They like, they like wallowing. And then they like yelling at people

online. And listen, I, I donated some money to an organization that, uh, that, uh, um, helps get people out of jail when they're falsely accused. I mean, listen, if you don't think cops are out there planting evidence and stuff like that, it's like, of course there's cops doing that. I've seen this shit happen. I hang with fucking criminals, dog. I'm out in the trenches. I've seen this shit happen.

So, but the one thing I will say is as someone, and by the way, and when I did that, I kind of knew I was gonna have to take an L social wise because I was saying this is I was a little bit saying people are like post their fucking square and I'm like you're not gonna tell me what to do I'll post how about this I'll donate like a pretty reasonable amount of cash and make your fucking stupid squares very obvious that you're not doing shit because all these all these, the amount of people I know that are out here, like posting their square and that's it. And a lot of them got forced into it too. So, I mean, I'm hold both sides accountable. You're telling this old lady's like, you better post a square.

You're racist. And that kind of boils to the fact where people say this to people, they'll be like, this guy's a racist. And sometimes I've even said that I'll be like, listen, I got fucking, you know, my last two fucking my last two girlfriends weren't white. Half of my family is black. I grew up with all fucking, you know, in the part of town where half my friend group was black and still is. And they go, that's what a racist would say. I have black friends. It goes, that's not what a racist would.

It's kind of something a racist wouldn't do, though. You can at least agree that it's probably not that racist. You know, Kevin Brennan has a black wife and people will be like, he's, oh, he's racist. He thought he would say that his wife is black. It's like, if you went to the head of the KKK and you were like, dude, dude, uh, you're fucking racist. And he's like, no, actually my friends are black. Would he say that? Is that what a racist would say? I'll tell you, it's not something someone that is that racist might say. So you can probably at least agree that if someone's super racist, they wouldn't be like, my family's black.

So we can probably, it's like this like constant need to call everyone racist. It's out of control, obviously. But doesn't mean that everyone's not prejudiced. That's why I always point these, you know, the Asian peoples and the white people are racist. Go talk to your dad, motherfucker. So, but when you say you do live by your actions, I fucking, you know, the same thing I'm always making fun of like Jewish shit. That's one of my favorite funny things to make fun of. And then my whole crew, I do a podcast with two Jewish people. So it's like, you know what actions do kind of speak louder than words. You want to be realistic? What does your life actually look like? All these fucking liberal people. That's what I've been

saying forever. They're phonies. They go out and they go black shit. And I'm for black people. And I care about minorities. And you grew up, you went to fucking white school and all your friends are white and you're an improv troop. And that's how you live your life. And so to be honest, I think that I do have a more nuanced perspective on all this stuff. And I don't, I do think that actions speak louder than words. If someone, you know, if someone, his whole crew is black and you're like, you're racist, maybe he's probably not that racist. So if you're on the other side, I think at least take that into consideration that you might, oh, maybe he's prejudiced. And you're like, well, we're all racist. Well then I guess there's not really that much of point of constantly

bringing it up. If we're all racist, if everyone's racist all the time, then why are we constantly bringing it up? There's gotta be levels to this shit. And if it's the base level, we're all it, then it's not probably point of, there's no probably a point of bringing it up all the time other than to start fights. And if you're on the other side and you're like, actually, it's, it's all a myth. And there's no, it's not all a myth. If, if, if you have never had an experience with it in your life, you've never seen, you never met gone to the fucking South. I was in Nashville and me and Paul Thompson and Waldo and Joe from the corner ball, having a ball, this guy comes up to us and he literally started telling us, he's like, Oh, I'm here with it. And he started going off. He goes, I would never let my daughter date a black guy. He said, that's what we just

met. And then Paul Thompson's like, he's a big, like, you know, he's a, he's like a hood dude. And he starts going, what the fuck do you, this guy's like 60. Paul gets in his face. He goes, what the fuck did you just say? He goes, I didn't, he goes, get the fuck out of here before I kick this guy's 60 again, 65, get the fuck out of here. But she's 75 years old. He's a 90 year old man. And Paul's spitting in his face. Go get the fuck out of here. If's 75 years old. He's a 90 year old man. And Paul's spitting in his face. Go get the fuck out of here. Have you never seen that? So of course it doesn't not exist. And of course it's overblown. And I hold an opinion that's not beholden to any side. One of my main fights before any of this stuff when I was young was against bouncers and teachers

and all that shit. But I, when I, when I released our first album, I did a specific fuck you in the liner notes. I said, thanks to this guy, this guy, this guy. And then I said, fuck you to this bouncer, this bouncer said the bouncer at, uh, the, the, uh, the Jimmy jazz and Guelph, the bouncer at Frank's and Guelph, where I went to university. And I said, the bouncer, this guy in Toronto, the bouncer, this person in Etobicoke. I said, I fuck you to all the bouncers. These people are pieces of shit. They, they take people, not all of them, but a lot of them. They take people outside. They beat them. They abuse their power. Listen, everyone abuses their power, but frigging the people that become cops often abuse it more. And anyone who's ever met people, any girl that's ever been on a date

with a guy like that knows they have a very specific, you know, way that they are. And it starts to get to them. Everyone watches these movies and sees people that are like that. They're based on reality. You know, sometimes it is racism. Sometimes it isn't when you, yes, I get it. When you look for racism, you see it everywhere. There's how many times have you seen some girl like, you know, get bad, get bad service from something and be like, Oh, I got the bad service. Cause I'm a woman. You know, you, you, this person talked over me cause I'm a woman. It's like, maybe they didn't. It's like with the cops, you know, same thing with the cops. If you look for racism everywhere, you're going to find it everywhere.

But if you put blindfold on, then you'll see it nowhere. And it's not nowhere, obviously. And if you haven't seen one person in your life do this shit, like, give me a break. But their movements get inappropriate. And the most important thing is that it's black men being killed. This is about black boys. This is a boys movement. Women, it's time for you to step aside. This is not about women. You don't get killed by, this is about the frigging dogs getting murdered by cops. And I know women want to, it's, you know, The frigging dogs getting murdered by cops.

And I know women want to, you know, it's time for women to step back and be like, listen, men need to stop being killed. I don't even know. You're kind of putting yourself in our thing. And I personally, as someone who donated, I funded this. You know, I'm a big funder of the whole thing. I'm single handedly. I'm a hero. But this is at the end of the day, a boy's problem. And now I just want to end with like a little bit of something that I talked about on,

on, on Sam Tripoli's podcast. Cause I did his podcast and it was honestly a little bit nerve wracking because I know he's got a huge audience. He really liked my videos and I was kind of, so I thought that everyone said that they thought I was funny on there and stuff. So I thought, uh, I was happy about that. You can let me know what you think, but I was, I thought it was one of those things that I kind of, you know, he was a big guy that came to Canada and everyone knew. And then I moved here. So that was kind of cool for me, but I was talking about how you need to make, make mistakes and stuff like that. And I think even with people starting comedy or anything, they go, you know, what should I do first? And it's like, it does

all, it doesn't matter which mistakes you make. It just matters that you make them matters. You do things because that's how you build your instincts. And I think a lot of this stuff, you know, maybe you do need to change, you know, look at different opinions and expand. Cause that's how you figure out what you actually think. So as soon as you decide, I'm, I'm fucking on the left wing. And these are my opinions. This is my 12 opinions. It's pretty simple. Cracked it. Even though I'm 17 years old, I cracked the code, you know, I'm a, I'm an, or you're, I'm an actor in Hollywood and I, and I've never thought about this stuff. I've never been a thinker in my entire life. And now, now I entered politics and bolt by George. I nailed it.

So that's not the way to do it, is to get set in your fucking ways. This is not simple stuff. These are complicated things. And the most important thing of all this is they freaking have new merch now. Freaking merch. The BoyzCast has merch. My boy, Johnny, he's the fucking fucking man he made all these designs for me he's been working hard at it and then we went back and forth i picked the one that i i was like i

want to wear that one because it looks sick i'm wearing it right now in the video i'm going to post all the shit if you want about my merch he did all the shit for legion of skanks forever and all these people and he's he's a fucking cool dude he shoots a lot of my videos and stuff he's a talented artist so if you want to check out my merch everyone's been that's one of the things that people have been hitting me up for a while i have new patrons fucking 20 patrons shouts out to fucking jameson donald super funny comic actually i know him and he's the man uh benjamin swearington donated fucking grasshopper space cadet hit me up with the fucking big donation it's only five bucks i'm posting tons of shit there i've got new videos up there i've've got episodes up there. And listen, like I said, I'm not trying

to tell you how to think with this shit. It's the most complicated one I've probably seen in my life. There's so much going on. So, you know, you can take my opinion for what it is. And the most important thing for me is to be funny. The most important thing is to be an artist that isn't compromised. I'm my own person. Or I'm not. Maybe me saying that's lame. I don't know. Who cares?

Buy my merch. All right. This has been the BoyzCast. Ryan Long. Peace.
