Starting point is 00:00:42 And we're going to take a look at some TikTok videos. Our friends of good ranchers have supplied us with the hamburger patties as always very delicious. Of course, the problem is that this year, you know, our friends from the ground, the cicadas have emerged after 17 years, and so I can barely hear myself talk over the sound of the cicadas. For some reason, we're right underneath a tree where there's like literally there's 10, million cicadas and you don't want to be under tree anyway when you're grilling so none of this makes any sense and we're just I'm talking about TikTok videos like why do I need to be at a grill outside screaming over
Starting point is 00:01:16 cicadas to talk about TikTok videos it makes no sense I this is crazy I don't the audio is gonna be shit let's be honest why don't I just go inside I'm just gonna go inside we don't need to be out here quit are you gonna you're just gonna make you'll make the burgers okay good I'll go inside and I'll talk about TikTok videos and uh you can just make the burgers and I'll eat them inside. Okay. All right, so we're back in comfortable environment away from the cicadas. We're playing TikTok videos is what we're supposed to do. These TikTokers are not happy with America. They're not just angry. They're disappointed,
Starting point is 00:01:53 but also angry, mainly angry. So let's hear what they have to say. Name the time or place that you would like to go being a woman where you think you would have more rights and live in more luxury and comfort than you do right now. As to the question that the young lady asked, asks, will it ever be fair? Nope. No, it won't be. And not because you're a woman in America. Like, that's helping you. Okay, the system is far more concerned about fairness for you than it's ever been for anyone ever.
Starting point is 00:03:30 But still, it won't be fair because life isn't fair. And, you know, that's the old cliche that many of us grew up hearing our dads tell us and that I say to my own kids all the time, it's a dad tradition. But, you know, it doesn't mean that the inverse is. So when I say life isn't fair, I'm not saying that life is unfair. It isn't fair, but it's also not unfair. Life is life. And you either accept that reality and move on and live your life and try to be a functional person,
Starting point is 00:03:56 or you can whittle away your existence screaming about how unfair everything is. It's all about profit. It's all about games. I came in January 2015. I still don't have any friends. I don't have no one friend. I'm going to tag the creator below and please go watch her whole video because it's important. Put simply, America sucks.
Starting point is 00:04:17 And here's the thing, immigrants are figuring that out much quicker than they were before. I'm going to tell you a very quick story. I heard of somebody from Peru who walked here, was here for one month and said, F this country, I'm going back. He was sold on the idea of the United States and then realized, oh my God, there's no free college, everything's about profit, there's no health care. He realized all the problems that Peru had, at least it was beautiful. time to relax. So guess what? Yeah, he went back home. It used to take immigrants maybe 30 years.
Starting point is 00:04:51 I've been here 30 years to realize this place. I wish you could just shut your big yonder. Immigrant spirits in one month flat. You have lost your place in the world and you just don't know it yet. Okay, then then leave. Then just get the fuck out. Like, why just we don't want you. Leave. Go. I'm gone. Go then. I am. Go. I'm gone. I'm not even arguing with you. We won't even argue over the points. A lot of what was just said there was untrue. But, you know, no free health care. Like, actually, there's plenty of immigrants come here, illegal immigrants, and they just go to the emergency room and they get free health care. And they never pay for it. Like, so there is that. But we don't need to get into the specifics. Okay, so they just leave. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:05:32 He's been here for 30 years. He doesn't like it. So just leave. Stop whining and leave. Turn around and walk back to Peru or whatever. And by the way, so you're telling me that you walked here from Peru, walked from Peru. And you didn't do your research before you came. You had to get here to find out that we supposedly don't have free health care. We don't have free college. You couldn't have, like, do they not have any kind of internet access in Peru? You can't, there's no, you can't check, you can't stop at a library. Somewhere along the way, you didn't have a chance to stop and do a little bit of research. You had to come here. So you were wondering, hmm, does America have free health care and free college?
Starting point is 00:06:09 Well, I guess I should walk there and find out. And then he got here and looked around, hey, is there a free health care, free college here? No. Damn it. Then he just turned around and walked home. Is that what? That's the least efficient way. We live in the information age.
Starting point is 00:06:24 Burgers are one of the most popular foods in America. You've probably eaten one recently, and you're definitely craving one now that we're talking about it.

American Meets delivered. America is not what it once was. I've got some bad news for people who don't travel internationally. The world hates us. Okay. We're not the big dog. We don't have the clout that we once had. We aren't even like statistically on top of anything. Education or anything anymore.
Starting point is 00:07:26 And I've traveled a lot internationally over COVID. Obviously I stopped. And there's always been an underlying tone that America is dangerous. But, you know, we were in Hollywood. So a lot of that is consumed by people in other countries is still American. However, I'm on my first international trip since COVID, and it has gotten worse. I have heard from every nationality that America is dangerous, but I arrived in Indonesia, which is a country that, you know, a lot of people aim to get out of and go to America. And the first thing that my taxi driver says to me is that he's afraid of America because of all the poppy seeds that we're taking and all the jazz powder that people are using.
Starting point is 00:08:03 And he's convinced that people are walking around the U.S. like zombies. Okay. That's enough of that. So all you're really doing is revealing. I didn't think there was any upside to the drug epidemic in America. I didn't think that there was any real silver lining to it.
Starting point is 00:08:18 I thought it was just bad all the way through, all the way down, just bad, bad, bad. And it turns out that there is a small silver lining, and that is that it's stopping people from coming here. You shall not! It's like the one good thing that we could say about the fact that our cities are, in fact, infested with drug-addled zombies.
Starting point is 00:08:37 I'm not saying, that makes it worth it. I'm not saying that, but at least there's something. I don't know. We could be optimists about it. Do I care that foreigners don't like America or have a low opinion of it? No, I don't. I always love these kinds of videos from people. By the way, people like this who claim to, I've traveled all over the world. Let's shut up. You've been in tourist spots. Like, you're not actually trying to make yourself out there's some kind of world traveler discovering the world. You know, you went to Cancun, you went to whatever. You stopped in Indonesia for two days for whatever reason. I'm not quite sure why you'd want to visit there.
Starting point is 00:09:08 It's true that we have a drug epidemic. That's true. Our cities are crime-infested cesspools. All of that is true. I'd still rather live here than Indonesia. And I know that she would because that's why she came back. But the question is, whose fault is that? America is not a real place, because why can we be 18 years old, go to war, buy an AR-15?
Starting point is 00:09:29 But God forbid, we sip on a white club. America is where a presidential candidate can get the most votes and still not be president. America is where people only care about immigrants if they're not white. America is where they decide to build bulletproof classrooms instead of adjusting the gun laws, God forbid. America is where a geriatric man who should be in adult diapers in a nursing home can be president and in charge of our nuclear codes. Okay. Okay, before we address that, I think my, is my hamburger done that has been cooking this whole time in this video that we shot all at the same time, not on two different days? You guys didn't do like a veggie patty, did you?
Starting point is 00:10:04 It is not a veggie patty. I can guarantee you that. What the hell is it? On rye bread? Barbecue bacon burger. Is that meatloaf? This is not Good Rancher. This is some sort of a bait and switch going on here.
Starting point is 00:10:18 That's meatloaf. I know meatloaf when I see it. Meatloaf, double beetloaf. I hate meatloaf. I don't know what the hell kind of meatloaf that is, but that's not a hamburger. So somebody ate my hamburger and they gave me this. Now I see why you guys wanted to do this whole bit.
Starting point is 00:10:32 I should have known. I actually thought, you know what? I actually thought you're going to really bring me. hamburger. This is how stupid I am. All right. Ships are good, though. I agree with her on that last point about our aging vegetable of a president. Of course, it's not unprecedented, though. Like, plenty of countries have senile or have had senile leaders. I assume you're voting for Trump then. I mean, yeah, he's old as hell too, but he's not senile. I am a young, vibrant man. Given that you've recognized this problem with America, that we have a president with dementia,
Starting point is 00:11:03 that's a real problem. Are you going to do something yourself to address that problem? No, of course not. I am more sure that I've ever been sure of anything that this woman is not going to vote for Donald Trump, despite noticing the problems. You want to know what's funny in the most unironic way is I hate America so much. The quality of life is so bad that I'd be willing to commit treason for free. I'd be giving away government secrets like it's a Black Friday deal. You know, my little jingle will be, it's the season for some treason. I would do anything to get out of this country. Hang on a second.
Starting point is 00:11:37 You'll do anything to get out of this country, and so you'll commit treason. It's treason, then. Do you think that's the punishment for treason? Do you think that's what happens when you're found guilty of treason? You think they go, well, you commit a treason, mister. Now, you get on out of here and don't come back. Get on out of here now. Like, you think that's what happens when you commit treason?
Starting point is 00:12:02 I mean, you must think that otherwise you wouldn't be publicly announcing on social media that you want to commit treason, which I have to say, I have never wanted anyone to commit treason. I don't encourage anyone to engage in any kind of criminal activity, least of all treason. I'm not encouraging that. I don't want it. But I'm also not going to do anything to dissuade you of your belief here. You know, if you decide to learn the hard way, well, go ahead. I somewhat look forward to that. That's it. Those are all the videos that I can stomach right now. And we can put patriotic music under this part. This is the moral story. America isn't perfect. It has serious problems, in fact, problems that are driven in part by the kinds of people
Starting point is 00:12:43 that are complaining about it right now. But it is our home. It's our country. And I love my country. And any effort to improve America that is not driven by a love of the country that you're trying to improve will fail. That's what we've all been. And also we've learned that TikTok and everyone on it, and everyone responsible for giving me this, should be put on a rocket chip and sent into the sun to burn. Anyway, God bless me.
