Timcast IRL - TimcastIRL #72 - Anti Trump Professor Warns We ARE In Civil War, Leftists "Seize" Seattle Police Precinct

Episode Date: June 10, 2020

Tim and Adam take a look at the left's view of the coming civil war, and find some inconsistencies in thinking. Then, generations come into perspective and lack of meaning is a question again. In other news that is not really news, Seattle has gone completely off the rails as protesters wall off seven city blocks and give it fanciful names. Tim and Adam discuss whether not policing this area is a good idea or a horrible precedent. This segues nicely into conversation about furries, and what has made them that way. Finally, the US desperately needs a shift in focus that turns our eyes to the skies. Support the show (http://Timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

How's it going, everybody? Welcome to the TimCast IRL podcast. We are in a civil war, according to some professor. That'll be fun. But in the meantime, we're just going to hang out and talk about it. So I'm hanging out with some buddies. You know how we do. We just hang out and talk about stuff. What's up, everybody? Adam Crickler here. Hey.

Thanks for coming out. We also have the... Sour Patch Lids. Lydia. There you go. Why don't you pull that sucker about a fist distance away from your face? Yeah, there we go. Pull that sucker.

Thanks, Joe. Couldn't hear you. Thanks, Joe. What's up, everybody? Hey. Yeah, we're go. Pull that sucker in there. Thanks, Joe. Couldn't hear you. Got it. What's up, everybody? Hey! Yeah, we're just chilling. So, we got a bunch of stories. There's like an occupied Antifa occupied zone in Seattle, which is

kind of funny, and also kind of scary in some ways. Yeah, I like that. I think a lot of people might underestimate how nuts these people are. They're walking around in body armor with guns, apparently. Yeah, I don't really... What is their endgame? Are they going to... Revolution.

Is that just their new little city? They will take as much as they can get. I wouldn't be surprised if they start pushing the barriers back. Yeah, but how are they going to get into the supply chain of food and regular stuff? They're LARPing. Ah, that makes sense. We'll see how that plays out. So we've got a bunch of other stories, though.

You know, crime is skyrocketing. Chicago is, man, is Chicago messed up. Yeah, Chicago's going crazy. Yeah, like, so. I wasn't really. It's not surprising, actually. Yeah, there's a local politician in Chicago who was, like, slamming the mayor, Lori Lightfoot. And then she just cussed him out.

And then he cussed back. And it was just, it's chaos in that city man he's talking about dudes walking around with AKs in the city looking to settle some scores like it's the purge dude and that's what ended up happening so they're canceling the show, cops Democrats are freaking out trying to walk away from this

defund the police thing, like the greatest gift to Donald Trump ever you've got people calling for abolishing the police and defunding the police while riots are wreaking havoc across the country. Talk about a campaign ad for Trump. What were they thinking?

It felt like the Democrats let loose a monster they had no idea. It's like they hired the Joker. Yeah, they've done this before. That's what I tweeted. Is that what you did? Yeah, Trump squeezed them. He hammered them and made them desperate. In their desperation, they turned to a group of people they didn't quite understand. Yeah, it's like... Oh, right? Is that what you did? Yeah, Trump squeezed them. He hammered them and made them desperate. In their desperation, they turned to a group of people they didn't quite understand. Yep.

So, if you are just tuning in, make sure you smash that like button. Smash that like button. Smash it. Also, for those of you that very much enjoy... So, I got really into that one. I see that. Wow. I'm not sorry.

For those of you that very much enjoy the UFO, we have a new t-shirt called Spin the UFO. And if you go to the description below, you can click the merch link. And there it is. There is a Spin the UFO t-shirt. You can pick yours up. That's our plug for the show. Also, get in your super chats if you'd like because we're going to talk about a bunch of crazy stuff. I want to read this article from Prospect, from the founder.

He's like a liberal progressive professor i didn't realize and he writes about all the different factions in civil war so get your questions in we won't be able to get to every single super chat but we will read through as many as we can and yeah it usually first come first serve so the sooner you get in the better but we we do jump ahead later on in the show adam is getting the ufo spinning for all you yes well someone someone super chatted spin the ufo well there you go that's what i was waiting for and actually i didn't realize that they could see the ufo without being the wide shot the super chat shot oh yeah can they yeah look go to go to tim oh hold on boom a little bit yeah well it was not spinning it was. It was clearly not spinning, and that is not okay.

Now it is spinning. And you were talking about the T-shirt. I was like, well, you know. We also got this thing. You see this? Oh, yeah. This is really cool. Another Instagram ad, huh?

No, I got this on Amazon. This is a periodic table with all the actual elements except for the radioactive ones. I wish I could zoom in. I've seen an Instagram ad for that. There you go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This desk is just going to be one big Instagram ad one day. I got this on Amazon, bro.

I'm just kidding, dude. Yeah, I don't know. A collection of curios. Yeah, I was looking at her knickknacks. There we go. Knickknacks. Yes. Welcome to the Civil War, ladies and gentlemen.

Or at least that's what the professor says. Why don't we just start talking about this here article? Yeah, let's talk about it. Let's check out this thing. You know, when I first saw this, I was curious because there have been a lot of people for one who have rolled their eyes shrugged and said there's no civil war oh my god damn you're so dramatic you're so dramatic and i'm like bro i didn't just one day make up that there's a civil war i didn't sit in my room and be like would it be cool though civil war and i started saying it

no it was like uh the new New York Magazine wrote about it. After all of these street conflicts, they wrote about the prospect of a coming civil war. And I read this and I'm like, wow, that's crazy. People are actually saying this might happen. Then you get the article from the Atlantic on Thucydides Trap and China and all this stuff. Bill Maher comes out. Bill Maher,

like last year, he was like, this kind of rhetoric is getting dangerous and it's escalating to the point where we're on the verge of a civil war or something like that. So it's like all these people are talking about it. And now we have an actual professor. What's interesting about this article is this professor is actually like anti-Trump lefty. So his perspective on it is really interesting. And what I find the most fascinating about it is clearly he views himself as the righteous,

virtuous, you know, good guy. Right. And he views every other faction as the bad guys, the deplorables, whatever. Trump is corrupt and using the political powers for personal gain and all this other nonsense. What's fascinating about this mentality is, you know, we here on this show probably find ourselves more on the libertarian spectrum opposed to what these people represent. I think the simple way to put it is orange man bad, but not that bad. You know what I mean?

It's like the easiest way to put it. And so I often question myself, like, are we – who's the right side? Who's the real – Are we the baddies? Not so much the baddies because people think there's good guys and bad guys. There aren't. But it's more like who's blind?'s wrong you know who's wrong and and really history is written by the victors so both sides have blind people yeah yeah but just believing

because they want to believe it sure sure but i think i'm right oh sure he thinks he's right i think he's wrong i think he's very wrong. I think he's very wrong. And I think he probably gets his media from, like, his information is distilled through a lens of insanity. So I actually read the same news he does, and I read the same news that conservatives do, and then I'm like, oh, clearly this is what's happening.

These people on the left only get their news from these particular sources, and so they end up getting, you know, this skewed perception on what's really going on in the world. Let's read this article. There's a little bit. I want to go. He talks about the factions, which is really interesting. Here's what he says. America is as close to a civil war as it has come since 1861. And once again, the central driver is America's founding stain, deep, persistent, brutal racism. See, I don't agree with that.

That's the central driver. No, no, it's not. It's a strong start. Right. So, so that's, but it's good because it's his perspective. Right. He's setting it up. He thinks we are this awful racist country.

No way, man. America is one of the least racist countries on the planet. Coming from someone who's been to a bunch of them. Right. I mean, like, I think Japan's awesome. Love Japan. Super racist. Very racist. Yeah. Yeah. I'm part Korean. Korea's great. someone who's been to a bunch of them right i mean like i i think japan's awesome love japan super racist very racist yeah yeah i'm part korean korea's great ridiculously racist oh really like dude korean racism is wow they're they're like ethno-supremacists man really yeah they think

they're like the supreme race not not all of them they've been getting kind of like you know chilled out but it has a lot to do with how the Koreans were essentially enslaved, you know, occupied by the Japanese. So they created this identity as a way to resist, you know, the Japanese oppression and stuff like that. Now they view themselves as like the best. And, you know, I mean this with all due respect, South Korea. But when I went there, they had this museum talking about their great general. This is really, really funny. They were talking about all the great battles he won.

And they show you, like, the first battle of his great victory, and he's got, like, 50 ships. And then they were like, it was a tremendous day for a general whatever. And then it was like, the next great victory occurred, and he had 10 ships. And then the next great victory had 3 ships, and then it was just him. And I'm like, what they're not telling you is how many times

he lost in between those great victories. So, you know, so they're writing their history. But anyway, for me, I think what's driving this is authoritarianism versus libertarianism. That's the main driver. Because

for me, I'm all about freedom, liberty, civil rights, and all that. And the opposing factions throw that all out the window. Let's keep reading and see what he says. He says, the current civil war doesn't have front lines that you can track on a map like the pins in Franklin Roosevelt's World War II maps. It's more of a guerrilla civil war like Vietnam's that breaks out anywhere and everywhere. But while its front lines are diffuse, they are real. They include every demonstration with peaceful protesters on one side of the line and coiled vicious cops on the other.

Now, see, here's another problem with his point of view. What about when a bunch of Trump supporters go to a park to wave little American flags, and then Antifa shows up and beats the crap out of them? Or the rioters that have nothing to do with the peaceful protesters. Yeah, this guy's clearly got a skewed perspective that's the point we'll keep reading he says we see the front lines of civil war in washington a block from the president's fortress mansion where there is it's a white house it's the white house i'm so confused right now you know it's it's been that

way for a long time right yeah trump didn't for a long time. Trump didn't make it a fortress. Obama's fortress. What? There is a literal struggle for who is in charge of the streets of our capital city. Donald Trump or D.C.'s nervy mayor,

Muriel Bowser. Now, that's fair. They are fighting. We've seen it in countless other cities where other progressive mayors are forced to admit they can't control

their own rogue police forces. And I will counter that by saying they also can't control rogue factions that literally have seized a seven block radius in Seattle, calling it a free zone or whatever. Yeah. The essence of a civil war is rival between claimants to the legitimate right to use force. And we are now on the brink of a situation where the force will confront force as Trump tries to use the military against unwilling governors and state national guards. But that's just ridiculous because Trump isn't going to use

the military. This guy's living in Wally World. The fault lines include the trench warfare between the honorable leaders of our country's armed services who resist this illegitimate use and Trump's own efforts to commandeer the military for an armed occupation of the country. In much of the world, this kind of a standoff ends with a military coup, does it? There is a civil war of American democracy versus Trump's paramilitary stormtroopers, many of whom are armed and prepared to resort to force to keep Trump in office. That's just called law enforcement. Either by disrupting the election.

What? Whoa. Or by making it impossible for an elected successor to take office. What? Paramilitary stormtroopers? This is getting a little ridiculous, man. This is a professor at a university. He's got a Wikipedia page.

Is that what it is? This Prospect Magazine or whatever. This is not some fringe no-name. I mean, he's a professor, dude. What does he teach? This is what he... Yeah, but what is he saying? Oh. Yeah. All I see is a bunch is what he... Yeah, but what is he saying? Oh.

Yeah. All I see is a bunch of just opinions. Yeah, so far so good. He's like, this is what was happening, but it's... Where's your proof? You're not backing it up with stuff. Of course not. You're just spouting stuff.

That's why I said in the beginning, I'm right, he's wrong. Yeah, okay. But think about all the people that he teaches or influences as a professor. Journalism? Yeah, it was... I think he's a journalism professor. I could be wrong. You want to look him up?

Yeah, what's his name? His name is Robert Kuttner. I know I sent you the link. Yeah, K-U-T-T-N-E-R. Yeah, all right, thanks. But no, this is the interesting part. He says the lines include Trump and his White House loyalists versus the so-called deep state

made up of people serving in government who work to uphold the law, risking their jobs if they offend our would-be dictator. Amazing. The incipient Civil War reflects a polarization of society along party lines, but contrary to a lot of commentary, the polarization is anything but symmetrical. One party has shown itself willing to destroy democratic institutions for partisan gain. Yes, Democrats.

Is he talking about Democrats? I think he is. The Civil War is also cultural, with two deeply antagonistic cultures, each convinced that the other is ruinous. But one of those cultures, despite its professed religiosity, is increasingly nihilist. This is really, really funny. What he's saying is so similar to what people say about them. Yeah.

Hmm. Yeah. It's like he's projecting yet or this it doesn't matter who's right or wrong literally doesn't because people are convinced that they're the moral superiors oh yeah and then war breaks out 100 did you look him up yeah oh so he does he he does teach uh hold on journalism yeah he's an american journalist and writer whose works present a liberal slash progressive point of view oh Oh, you're telling me. Thanks, Wikipedia. This guy doesn't even have Google. This guy gets his opinions straight out of a can. I love it. His opinions come from like

a distilled NPR feed right to his ears. Seriously, very original. At a more fundamental level, the Civil War is deeply racial in a way that evokes the fraught period that prefigured America's one true civil war. From about 1820, right up until the Confederacy attacked Fort Sumter in April 1861, the slaveholding South never accepted federal power if there was the slightest chance that the national government would interfere with slavery. The doctrine of nullification, ostensibly about tariffs, was really about slavery. I don't care to read about whatever that is. Anyway, you know what, man, let's read the end. Trump's physical isolation behind White House walls is emblematic of his increasing political isolation. But he and his followers still have immense power to wreak havoc.

I mean, didn't Trump just go on a bunch of trips? And isn't he planning now a bunch of rallies? He is starting the rallies again. This dude doesn't have Google, does he? No. And he writes like this, you know. He doesn't want Google. There will not be a coup d'etat, either by the military to oust Trump or by Trump to shut down Congress and recalcitrant and recalcitrant governors and mayors. What there will be is ongoing trench warfare over five more

agonizing months. We will then learn whether the power of an aroused people can keep a dictator at bay. And even if Trump is defeated, residual racism and hatred will linger. An oft quoted Man, this guy's teaching kids? Journalism. Yes. Yeah. Journalism. Yes. Yeah. Journalism. That's ridiculous. So that explains a lot.

It's interesting what he said at the end, though, that the old won't die and the new is trying to be born. That's interesting. The argument that progress is always a good, like, you know, I hate the way they frame that, but there's this argument that progress, for the the sake of progress is the right way to go. Like, it's possible progress can be a bad thing. Yep. It's possible that tradition can be a good thing. It's possible that tradition can be a bad thing as well, and progress can be a good thing.

I think in this country, we've had a lot of great progress. Civil rights, for instance. Definitely. We've come a long way as a country. And, you know, basically the way I see how it works is you don't want to just hold on to tradition blindly. It helped you get to where you are, but you got to keep reevaluating what you're doing and adapt and improve. That's progress. Reform.

Yeah. Hey, that's what this country is all about, man. We were talking about that. Several decades of reform, or I should say, you know, more than several decades. Centuries, yeah. Centuries, yeah. Where we've consistently reformed everything. We had a war over some of that reform and never really a hard revolution or revolt

where people just like wiped out our laws. Yeah. Well, that's what this is, I guess. I was reading an article last night about how Antifa, they've been infiltrating high schools and colleges and trying to gather, you know, more people there because they're young and ignorant and they have no idea. And then we got professors like this spouting this kind of stuff.

These professors have been doing this thing for a long, long time, though. Dude, the guy behind the bike lock was a professor. Oh, yeah. Yeah, this guy also went to... Robert Kuttner also went to Berkeley. I don't remember the guy with the bike locks. The bike lock basher. Yeah.

Yeah, do you know who the bike lock basher is? Is that the board you made? Yeah. Is that about that story? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay.

Yeah. Can we show that? No. No? We can't show it? Even for just for our audience? I don't want to do it. No?

I got in trouble. I tried. I want to show you guys. I think the joke was lost, and I recognize that it probably was in poor taste. Yeah. Eric Clanton. Eric Clanton. Eric Clanton, that was his name. Three-year probation deal.

So here's the joke. They wrote liberals get the bullet, too, on a wall in Berkeley. Okay. So I designed this sunburst graphic using the revolution fist and put a bike lock in its hand. And it says liberals get the bike lock, too. And it was supposed to be making fun of them because they're pathetic and violent. And YouTube was not happy. They were like,

people who don't understand the context, this is the way it kind of came off, are going to think you're literally saying to go bash liberals because they don't understand what this is supposed to be a reference to. A little nuanced. And I'm like, that's actually a good point.

Like, it sounds like I'm saying bash liberals with the bike lock. Because that's what they were saying but I was making fun of them. So good point. Like, it sounds like I'm saying bash liberals with a bike lock. Because that's what they were saying, but I was making fun of them. So, yeah. So, you know. Anyway. Well, there you have it. This guy bashed seven people over the head with a bike lock.

And then he basically gets off, you know. But, yeah. So, at Berkeley, it's interesting you bring up the high school thing. Because there's a high school right next to that park. And some kids came out when this protest was going on, and they were complaining to a lot of the people there that the teachers forced them to agree with social justice. Like, it's a religious class.

Yeah, I've seen this. Yeah, this kid was telling me that, like, they will tell you to write an essay about, you know, your white privilege or something. And then when you're like, I don't believe that's a thing, F. Wow. Yeah, it's like what that's not white privilege is not a fact but they claim it is no it's not it's a it's critical race theory

or some other nonsense so you're gonna have i don't know man i think in that regard we might end up seeing a bunch of kids reject all of this yeah isn't gen z already rejecting a bunch of it some of them well yeah not all of them yeah because a lot of it? Some of them. Well, yeah. Not all of them. Yeah, because a lot of kids rebel. So you get a bunch of millennials who are like, what, in their mid-30s now, telling these 15-year-olds who are 20 years younger that, you can't say those things. You can't say that.

And so what are the kids going to do? Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Seriously. Some of these millennials, Gen Z are their kids. You you got a 35 year old you know woman whose name is karen and she's an sjw millennial and she's she get she had a kid when she was 20 and the kids now you know teens yeah and he's like shut up mom you're dumb yeah you're so stupid karen you had a kid when you were 15 why can't i yeah jake Tapper apparently said, I think it was Jake Tapper, I could be wrong, that his kid calls him fake news

when he gets mad at him. That's amazing. He's like, you're fake news. That means you understand this kid is being influenced by... President Trump? Yeah, by Trump. This is actually really interesting because there's one stat that I like to cite from Pew.

Gen Z is the first generation in like 100 years to be more conservative than the last. That's great. They're only slightly more conservative. They're actually a little bit more liberal, progressive on some things, but then conservative on other issues. That gives me a slight amount of hope.

Just a little bit. Just as you said, just a little bit more. I think millennials are like a lost generation. Yeah. Yeah, I'm like, I'm right on the cusp. I was 84. No, that's millennial. Well, it used to be 85.

Then it was 84. No. Now it's 83. No, trust me, I've been watching it, man. It does change. It's really fluid. It's been pushed further and further back. There's different schools. I remember click TVs, all all right i had to go and change to the tv right

i had that when i was little my goodness okay yeah all right millennial yeah millennial was supposed to be like coming of age and in the year 2000 or something like that right and so it i think i think by some standards it's like 1980 okay yeah my my sister is so keep it pushes back a little further yeah yeah because uh gen xers were like graduating college in the early to mid 90s okay yeah i'm pretty sure that's right like the gen xers were born in the 70s right yeah i want to say like late 60s to almost up to 80 because each generation is technically about 20 years yeah so man so gen x is now what 50 and 60 or whatever no gen x is like late 40s early 50s i think old people old people they're all boomers i know it

seems like the consensus is 82 a lot of people are posting right now about like what a millennial is i guess that would make sense 81 i 81 a lot of 81s so maybe that's it. The reason I think this is like, what do millennials do? They complain a lot. Yep. Myself included. Self-esteem. They're not running for office for the most part. I don't like to complain.

That always bugs me about people complaining. I'm like, well, hey, what have you done to fix that? Well, nothing. I'm just complaining. I was like, all right, well, stop complaining to me then. What's your plan to fix it? I always like moving forward and figuring out a way forward. I don't like wallowing, sitting and wallowing in your misery.

I mean, I've been there before, but then I've learned over my life. It's like it's better to look forward and be like, I can either change it or I can't. And those are your two options. Maybe a better way to put it is they have no purpose. True. If you don't have a purpose, then you can't even see the future. Totally agree with you. Yeah, they don't do anything.

I mean, it's crazy because most of the people I know are kind of living the same way I am. Just like no kids, no family. Kind of winging it. I don't know. I don't know what it is, man. Maybe it's... I blame the boomers. It's all their fault.

You blame the boomers. I blame the boomers. Yeah, because they were the hippies. They had hippie kids. See, this is, man. Maybe it's... I blame the boomers. You blame the boomers? I blame the boomers. Yeah, because they were the hippies. They had hippie kids. See, this is the thing. It's like everyone always wants that. They want to blame someone. Well, no, not me. I want to blame anyone else. I don't care. I'm going to find the person to blame. There's always someone to blame. It's like,

alright, look. We're all in this together. Society is the way it is. How do we move forward together and figure it out i don't want to blame anyone i'm part of the problem everyone's part of the problem well everybody is everyone can make a choice to move forward together it's like but i figure out how to do that and stop blaming but i think the first thing is when i say i blame them i'm really referencing that you know is it really a problem we don't live the way our grandparents lived in terms of life? Think about it, though.

World War I, then there was the Great Depression, and then World War II. So that was like a 50-year span, you know, or less, maybe 30, 40 years, you know. Life was not pleasant. Incredibly hard. Right? After World War II, they were like, wow, this is what life is like now? We're not at war. Now we get to live and just have babies?

I don't blame them for having all the boomer. Seriously. The boom, you know? It makes sense. So then how did we get here now? It's because of that. So it's not necessarily their fault. There was just this wave.

It's just up and down and up and down through the years. Now we're here. And the bad times come next people want to blame others Though instead of just we got to come together. Yeah. Well, no, that's the point I was gonna make is blame them for what I guess mm-hmm Like if every generation is different based on their circumstances, then maybe this is just it who cares. I think Okay, I have a theory so boomers really really wanted Millennials to never suffer Anything at all right because their parents boomers parents went through some really really hard millennials to never suffer anything at all right because their

parents boomers parents went through some really really hard times like the depression and world war ii and everything so they wanted their kids to do well they spoiled the boomers the boomers spoiled the millennials no no no there's you're missing a link between what what is it gen x who who's between the boomers and the boomers give birth to the millennials. And then the Gen X come from, I think, what? The generation before boomers. What was that? Was it the greatest? I want to say the greatest generation.

Yeah. We got a screaming kid in here now. Oh, my gosh. What is happening? He's screaming. He wants to go outside. He's spoiled. He is, yes.

Yeah, I think, was it greatest? Yeah, I think greatest. Hold on. Let me look. Let me look. The greatest generation had. So, wait. Who had?

No, no, wait. I don't know my generation. They're confusing. Was the silent generation had so wait who would no no wait i don't know my generation they're confusing so was the silent generation had the boomers let me check i don't know man you know it is it's silly that we try to lump everyone together because you know everyone who's born in a different year goes through such a drastic different right and then we got to think about where they're living you know what what kind of environment they've grown up in, their family situation. Everyone's so different, drastically different. It doesn't matter what generation you are. There's definitely lazy people and awesome,

motivated people and a-holes. It doesn't matter. They're everywhere. You know about the generational theory? I forgot what it's called. It called something something generational theory where it's like every there's like four steps you know every 20 years something like this okay and then always ends in some like great war catastrophe or like mass death yeah strows how yeah is that what it is fourth turning theory or simply the fourth turning describes a theorized recurring generation cycle in american history and global history yeah so aren't we on track for 2020 to be like war? Well, that's what that guy's article was about,

the one where we were talking about... You want to pull up that Strauss-Hau thing? Yeah, hold on. But don't you think we can break the cycle? You know, we're at a time of... We're together. Social media. We weren't ready for it, but we've got it.

It's here. We can connect. We've got all this available. Hey, Boku. He's a Boku-san. There's the kitty. book this is japanese i don't know if he wants to no i think uh it's too late you think it's too late yeah i think the generation before uh the boomers had the opportunity to make sure that we didn't enter the whiny baby cycle of the generational theory basically you have a whole generation of people who have never experienced

hardship, and so they're extremely spoiled and don't know. Their hardship is not having internet. Their hardship is, I said a naughty word. I kid you not, it's like, you say a naughty word and they cry. Did you see that viral video of the woman crying because

she got a Trump email? Yes. Dude, what is wrong with these people? And she doesn't look like a millennial. She looks like she's in her 20s. Or the other video where the girl was driving and someone flicked her off. Yeah, and her mom went like hunting her down. And she was freaking out and told her mom. Snowball Karen.

You just see the mom Karen storm past her. It was like, whoa. The older Karen. There's flames coming off of that Karen. It's like in Dragon Ball Z when Goku goes Super Saiyan, but instead the hair turns into the Karen cut. Oh my gosh. She's like, and her eyes are glowing.

She finds the car. Did you flick off my daughter? Yeah. Was she really thinking she's going to find the car? No idea what she was thinking. What was your plan? Come on. It reminds me of that comic I was talking about the other day

where it's like, back then, the teacher says, your child is failing and the parents look at the kid and say, what did you do? And then it's like, now the teacher says, your child is failing and they look at the teacher and say, what did you do? It's your fault. Our precious snowflake can do no wrong. It feels like it's slowly getting rid

of the First Amendment, the freedom of speech. What happened to that? I don't care who you are. It feels like bro the constitution should be able to say whatever and like we got to have thick skin it's like say whatever i don't care what you say because what you say doesn't affect me that that is gone not anymore that is a new religion buddy no no no no no no i disagree it's not gone it's gone among a certain amount of people. Yes. Sure. No. But in the general public, I don't think so. So when you can't go to church without being fined or arrested, but Black Lives Matter can go on protest and it's called the government enforcing. Yeah. Yeah. And it's pissing a lot of people off. I've seen countless people just like, we're done with this. No, wait. I don't believe it, man.

I see so many people. Look, how many thousand? I mean, maybe, maybe. Maybe we're just seeing the vocal minority out in the streets screaming. I think so. I see all the posts on Facebook. And I ask them, these people, like, don't you see a contradiction in the government targeting these, you know, people who want to go to church, but you being allowed?

And they said, well, we're fighting injustice. We're more important. People can go to church whenever they want. allowed. And they said, well, we're fighting injustice. We're more important. People can go to church whenever they want. Yep. It's like you they can't, their brains don't work. Yep. So the point I was making is the previous generation had a chance to stop the cycle by making sure these kids didn't become

that final, you know, that final generation that knows no, has no understanding of how hard things really get and then cause the collapse. Yeah. Then the chaos ensues. Everything gets bad again. And then life sucks. Yeah.

Which brings us to our next story. That is the Strauss-Howe theory. The next story we have is about... This is great. Seattle's sleepless as authorities mobilize after locals declare, quote, free zone. The free Capitol Hill zone or the Capitol Hill free zone is about seven city blocks in Seattle, which are currently being occupied by Antifa far left types.

The police have retreated. They've abandoned the East Precinct in Seattle. And now these protesters are what I'm going to call them, extremists, far left, whatever, are wearing body armor. And they're getting weapons. And they're armed. And they're extremely dumb. Yes.

How long is this going to last? That's all I think. It's like we've been to Christiania together. For those who don't know, Christiania is a free state inside Copenhagen, the city of Copenhagen. It's not. They consider themselves completely separate, very similar to this, but you go in there and it's a huge plot of land. It used to be a military base that in the 70s, or maybe the 60s, they let go of it, and then hippies moved in and slowly turned it into

basically a free state. And it's successful. They grow food there. They have a functioning society. And I'm looking at this, and I just see a bunch of people that want stuff but have no idea how to go about getting it. But they're demanding. Go ahead. Take a look at these photos.

These are some of the photos from the article. Yeah, I'm looking at it. You can see the barricades over here. They've got businesses. The funny thing about it is apparently they've forced the businesses inside the zone to, quote, disaffiliate from the city. Probably means nothing other than them being like, okay, we disaffiliated. Well, the police aren't doing anything. They're just going to let it go.

I think this is – it's possible this is the right move. It's also possible that this is an extremely dangerous move. It might be the right thing because we'll let this, you know, the kids, let maybe have his bottle and then maybe they get tired and go home. Then they can come in and sweep things up. I don't think that's going to happen. I think they've just been given an occupation. And like we saw with Zuccotti Park in New York,

a bunch of people are probably now rushing full speed to Seattle to see the occupied zone, the free zone. I'm willing to bet all those people that went to Minnesota, drove up, are like, we got to go to Seattle, man. There's like an anarchist thing they took over. And then you're going to see a bunch of people with weapons and they're going to bolster their defenses. And they're going to take this part of the city. And's the longer it goes on the harder it'll be for the police to actually deal with it yeah this right now considering the past week of like what they're calling an uprising or the revolution i'm willing to bet they're all rushing full speed to seattle right now it wouldn't surprise me so what what are they doing are the police going to wait

you know it's crazy though apparently i guess the reason the cops backed off and let them have the department, the precinct, is because they received 12,000 complaints about the use of tear gas. So all of the locals in the area were like, stop. And the cops were like, all right, the cops left. So what are these people going to end up doing? I think it might end up being like an Occupy Wall Street thing. It'll be there for several months maybe They're going to get tons of donations

They're going to get funds And they're going to stay there That whole thing freaks me out The donation thing Because I just learned about that It's not really in tune with this What the Act Blue thing? Yeah the Act Blue

What is that about? So if you want to donate to Black Lives Matter It, the Act Blue. What is that about? So, you know, if you want to donate to Black Lives Matter, it goes into Act Blue, which is a Democratic, like, donation. But is that, like, the official Black Lives Matter organization? I don't know. That's a good point. But they've gotten millions and millions of dollars. I did see, right, the organization has. Yeah, and I was reading, I mean, I looked into it, and I has. Yeah, and I was reading, I mean, I looked into it and I'm reading down and it's like, this money is to help create a democratic society.

And I was just like, wait, what does that have to do with Black Lives Matter? This is the Democrats taking the Black Lives Matter money? What is going on? I got a question. So you know that the the south was the democrats right the southern democrats were the racists jim crow yeah interesting yeah the the democrats was the party of of the clan and all this racism and then you you ask you ask some of these democrats and they'll tell you the party's switched like that like that you know civil war professor guy who

wrote about the civil war yeah it's like oh but nixon started to realize he could pander to white racists in the south to win and it's like well well hold on man hold on when when have the democrats actually ever done anything to not be racist no it's a serious question because they're the party of racism the party of the clan and all these really awful things. They're remnants of the Confederacy. Right. And then what's going on today? All of the big racism problems are literally in Democratic-controlled areas. Absolutely.

You're 100% right. And then you think about, look at their frontrunner, Biden. You know, he's like... History of racism. Poor kids are just as smart as white kids. It's like... Yeah, you ain't black. Wait, wait, what does that have to do with white?

What are you talking about? Oh, but he was just being silly. You don't understand, Joe. It's like, but he does this all the time. What are you talking about? Yeah. He says these things all the time. Yeah, Biden says some racist stuff.

It's crazy. But he's also got a voting history that apparently has been criticized for being racist. So I'm not going to track down Biden's voting history and argue whether it was or wasn't. He was a product of the times for sure. But I would just ask the people who are voting for Democrats, how can you justify that your party isn't racist? How can you prove that when you are literally remnants of the Confederacy? And to this day, all of the problems of racism that you keep bringing up are in your cities. Yep. What are you going to change? Right now, you've got Chicago. You've got a black mayor, Lori Lightfoot.

You've got tons of black aldermen. And you've got rioting and destruction throughout the city. Apparently, this is crazy. We don't even know the full scale of what happened in Chicago. It's like a lot of it hasn't been covered. Apparently, people were stealing buses. Wow. Like city buses, they were stealing stuff.

So why are they rioting there?'s like it's a democratic controlled city with the democratic governor and democratic congressmen and democratic senators democratic mayor trump's fault yeah the republicans are racist yeah like that's just i look man and you know i actually just read this article earlier today about the, you know, I don't know if anyone's seen this, but a bunch of Democrats wore these kente cloths. Yeah. Right. And they were taking a knee. And all these Africans are posting these videos like, what are they wearing?

Like, how dare these people? Like, this is that's not even American thing. Like, that's our thing. Like, how dare you? And then I'm reading into it more it's like those specific ones were from a tribe that i mean had history of slavery themselves and i was like oh that's bad oh did you hear about that what what no the cloths that they wore are specifically from a tribe that that actually ran in like did slavery so slavery stuff. Oh, snap! No, is that for real? Failed virtue signal.

We should confirm that one. Hey, hey, hey. I trust Adam. I'm not saying it's... I've been reading so much about all the different Africans that have been pissed off about this. It's like, mad Africans are pissed. They're posting all these videos talking about, like, how dare they.

They don't care, dude. Yeah, dude. They don't care. You can't care you can get kanye west pandering man one of the most successful and famous you know black people in this country yeah kanye rocks and they they call him mentally ill when when kanye came out and said that he liked trump they ran his article saying oh poor kanye he's he's gone crazy he's mentally ill been a little bit like talk about racist dude yeah that's yeah come on man yeah you know why they were doing it. Oh, yeah. Candace Owens comes out and gives her opinion and they say that she's a grifter and she's lying and she's wrong. Aunt Jemima? She's a white supremacist. Yes. Yeah, they call her all of these racial slurs. Dude, you know what, man? I was having a conversation with a friend about Antifa and the funniest thing is the success of Antifa propaganda that one, they're not really an organization

and two, it just means you're anti-fascist. And I'm like, listen, if a taxi company started a violent group that hated Uber called Anti-Ub, just because I think they're insane doesn't mean I support Uber. That's the thing. They say we're anti-fascist. Yeah, dude, pedophiles could be anti-fascist.

You know what I mean? Like, just because you're claiming you're anti-fascist doesn't mean the rest of what you do is a good thing. Right. And so they claim that so they can mask the fact that they're actually associated with the communists. Its history is communist Germans before the rise of Hitler. And then they try and recruit people with that. It works. And people are like,

but are you saying you support fascism? And I'm like, what? Where did you get that? Thinking violence is bad? They've successfully... It's fascinating to me. The other funny thing about these people is that they've actually convinced all these high-profile personalities

to be showing U-boats. We talked about this the other day, didn't we? Yeah. The D-Day thing. Yeah. It's like we were at war with Germany. Like what are you talking about? These people are not Antifa. It's just ridiculous. Check this out. This is funny. So this is from Michael Tracy. He says, this is one of the individuals running the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone in Seattle. No additional commentary from me needed. LOL. So this individual is 18. She, they, lesbian anarchist, abolished whiteness, capitalism, and civilization. Cash app.

Generalissima. Born July 10th, 2001. Wow. Did you see the dude who stoked one of the guys who stoked the fires at the 3rd Precinct in Milwaukee, in Minneapolis? Got caught? He got caught, and he was, boy, was that guy dumb as a box of rocks. Was he? I didn't see that.

He stole ammo. He stole body armor, cuffs, batons, and a helmet. He was walking around wearing it. Whoa. And some people were like, he wrote his name on duct tape and put it on the back around wearing it. Whoa. And some people were like, he wrote his name. He wrote his name on duct tape and put it on the back of the armor. Whoa. Yeah.

That's some bold. Talk about really dumb. That is a bold strategy. Dude, these people are, this is why I say I blame the parents, man. Yeah. Come on, man. No, look, she's 18. Yeah.

And. Dude, I'm so glad. You're an adult. You're an adult at 18. Okay. I'm sorry. I agree. It's your responsibility.

That's the way it is in this country. Maybe. But I do think it's funny, like, born 2001, and you think you're a revolutionary, the generalissima who wants to abolish civilization. What? And capitalism with her cash out. No, no, no. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I'm just saying. How can you be she and they at the same time? If you're a lesbian, you're a girl. Floorball. Isn't that the case? There's no rules. But lesbian is a girl that likes girls. Only feelings. Specific.

Yeah. So how would it be they? Because gender identity is... Fluid? I don't know, man. There's no rules. Nothing makes sense. The other question I have is, and this is funny because I tweeted about this, and a

bunch of people got really, really mad. Like, it's really triggered these lefties i asked legitimately why are so many anti-fascist furries yeah i saw that tweet but i i didn't mean i said i'm not disparaging actually asking i know it's a legitimate question there's like a really high profile cartoon squirrel that's constantly doxing people and harassing people okay with of followers. There's a bunch of furries. They're called fursonas, I think. Their avatar is their self-designed art of themselves as a cartoon animal. Hey, man, look. I'm all about liberty, so I don't care if you're a furry. Do whatever you want, man.

You keep saying, blame it's the parents. They're bad parents. A lot of these young parents give their kids iPads. Here, here you go. And then what do they watch? They watch cartoons. So they grow up idolizing cartoons instead of their parents. Instead of having parents that they look up to, they're like, wow, I want to be like that person. They watch and are raised by cartoons.

And they see anthropomorphized animals as society. Yeah, maybe that's part of it. And then ingrained in their personality. It's honestly not that surprising. Yeah. But that's not my issue. It's sad. My issue isn't that people are furry.

I don't care. No, no. I know. I'm just making notes. I just noticed that. Why are they Antifa? Oh, man. I don't know.

They want purpose. Apparently, there are white supremacist furries okay that's like a big thing i guess random but okay yeah yeah they weren't they have like they have nazi armbands but it's a paw print instead of a swastika or whatever i'm not i'm not kidding dude i've these i don't know i don't know if it's a joke or whatever i'm just pointing it out so if i see the uh the paw print i'll know what what it means now i don't know what it means thanks yeah i have no idea i it means. Thanks. Yeah, I have no idea. I've actually never seen a furry before.

No, but somebody made a good point, and they said it's that the left has successfully made it so that in many communities, like gaming, movies, even in the furry community, you can't be conservative because of cancel culture and the fear

that they'll attack you. So these people just up and then the and then which end up seeing is all of this Antifa But doesn't really explain it. It doesn't explain how like I don't know. I don't know like I don't know what this is But there's a bunch of these like Characters and I'm not saying these people are furries, but there actually are some high-profile I don't use their real names Okay, I don't want to I don't want to cause a brigade or anything, but there's some people that are actually well-known, verified furries who are very vocal about supporting Antifa. I'm like, what's that all about? Somebody mentioned a lot of the right-wingers have

anime avatars, and I'm like, that's not really true either. It's like an eagle and an American flag. I don't know what you... Or a kek frog or something it's like i don't i don't i do see anime people but not really it's usually like these tumblerina leftists use use anime stuff yeah but they're not dressing up as the characters are they they're not like full-on outfits the conservative side no i mean like all of these people oh right right i mean that well they'll wear their like american flag hat and like sure trump shirt or whatever or like trump hat yeah okay that's not like embodying a different animal though that's that's like isn't that what furries do they like get in the full outfit i don't know yeah it's a fursuit yeah apparently like really expensive

yeah they are like a crazy lifestyle apparently they've like tried to have conventions but the people are just like nuts and we and were sabotaging plumbing or something. I don't know. Somebody posted a response like, here's your understanding. And I watched this video, and it was really weird. I think, look, I don't care what you do with your life and your free time. That's why I'm like, it's not even really about furries at all. It's about Antifa. Yeah. And what it is. One of the responses I got from a lot of people was that they're Antifa are mentally ill people.

You know, it's like we're talking about with the Joker the other day. Yeah. That this fringe ideology needs allies. So it seeks out vulnerable, you know, unstable individuals to support it. Just like I said earlier, like i read that article antifa is is going to high schools and and colleges looking for the people that are outcasts and are that don't fit into society and they're snatching them up and what you do is you tell them the reason you don't fit in yeah it's because of trump yeah because it's a racist society yeah it's society's fault it's everyone else's fault

yeah exactly it's not your fault I'm here for you it's not your fault how do we actually deal with that what do you do do you drop them in the middle of the woods make them learn how to survive

take them on a camping trip what did their parents do wrong? They weren't parents. Yeah. Simple. They weren't parents. They weren't parents. Dude.

You know, all I see is as they get older and older, they're looking at the kids like, oh, that's just kids being kids. They'll grow over that. They'll get out of that phase eventually. And they don't try. They don't engage. They're just like, yeah, whatever, whatever. And then it just runs rampant. I think it's the logical conclusion of what we've been seeing over the past hundred years. It used to be, and I think you brought this up a few days ago, that

you were a blacksmith and then your kid would watch and learn and help you in the shop and then eventually became a blacksmith too. Yep. Then you got really good at blacksmithing. Yep. And that was a family. It was use a family name it was your family job then we had apprenticeships and then it was like not just your kid it was also other people would come and pick trades and then it eventually became stuff all the kids in a factory yeah parents go off and do a different job and the kids are shoveling coal into a you know a steam engine or something but then we started putting them in schools institutional institutionalized learning facilities with the bells that, you know, I've heard it's supposed to simulate factories. I don't know if that's true.

Where like the bell rings the period. Oh, wow. Yeah. But you slowly take the parents away from the kids. Eventually the kids are just mindless drones. They don't know what they are. Right. Nowadays companies don't want college kids

anymore, right? A lot of them don't. Yeah, because they're not experienced. They're clueless. All right, I have my degree. Okay, do this job. Well, what do you need me to do? This job. Can you do it or not? No, you have to tell me what to do. Can't you hold my hand and show me?

What about my homework? That's not what work is. My professor told me what to do. Oh, okay. My is. My professor told me what to do. Oh, okay. Yeah. My professor would tell me what I had to do. And it's like, okay, bro, I don't know how to do that job. That's why I hired you.

Yeah. Exactly. I've literally experienced this where I'm like, you know, I hired someone specifically to manage accounting when I was working for Fusion. And they're like asking me like, what do I do? I'm like, I don't know. That's why I have a hard time with with anyone building stuff for me because i have a really high standard for the way i build stuff you know whatever it is you know if it's a bedroom you know even running the electric

unless it's like a professional person doing it i want to do it myself because i know how to do it and i'd rather it done right because if it isn't done right i'm just gonna have to do it myself these kids aren't good at anything yeah they've got no skills they are talentless blobs of nothing yeah and now they're angry that they don't get all of these things they can't they can't make themselves or they can't earn well it's no wonder that they're angry because they were told their whole lives they can do anything they want anything you dream of you can do but you don't have to work for it i'm just gonna keep telling you you can do anything it's like yeah you could do anything but you have to pick one thing and then go for that for a long time and then eventually you get into it the problem is the previous

generation demanded we go to college like like moron lemmings yep marching on it's a requirement now yeah i remember when i was little, man, I'll tell you what. My family had been telling me to go to college nonstop my whole life. And I was like, nope, nope. Never going to happen. Never going to happen. And then one of the funniest things happened was after I got featured in Time's Person of the Year and the Time 100, I actually had family be like, so are you going to go to college now?

And I was like, why? Is that a joke? Are you serious? Why would you do that? Have you not seen me in the Time magazine? I was like, I've been invited to speak at a PhD course on journalism. You've been to the White House, man. Yeah.

It's pretty huge. Well, that was like I'm 30. How old? 34 when that happened? No, 33. Yeah, whatever. But I'm talking about like I'm 26. I have a career. i'm being like featured and

and i have these professors saying like this technique is incredible and they're asking me to come and give guest lectures at colleges at colleges and i still had family being like you really need to go to college now and i'm like are you insane like why go to college but you think about that pressure even i was getting from my family. And you think about all these kids who don't know better. And I can't, you know, I don't completely blame them. If you were told your whole life, you can have everything you want so long as you play by these rules. Here's what you have to do.

No cheating allowed. Go to school. Go to high school. Get a loan. Go to college. And they graduate and they're told, actually, you're an indentured servant for the rest of your life. I'm not surprised they're freaking out. This is one of the reasons why I'm very much in favor of college debt forgiveness.

But I don't believe we should just do with, like, what Warren said or whatever and just write a blank check. Yeah, I agree. Here's 50 grand. Boom, just hand it out. No, I think we should just terminate the interest rates. Yeah, yeah, I like that. So you've got to pay down everything you've spent. Yeah, you've got to pay for it because the professors still got to get paid.

The college still has to run. No, no. These are people out of school. Oh, okay, okay. Yeah, yeah. But now they owe money. Afterwards. After the fact.

So they got a loan from a company. The company put a percentage interest rate on it. Right, because it's all just the banks then making that interest anyway. We have a predatory system. Yeah, yeah. interest rate on it right because it's all just the banks then making that interest anyway we have a predatory system yeah yeah that is it is creating an entire generation of whiny communists so i'm not i'm not gonna as much as i can complain about the individual i laugh but you're right yeah listen man they get out of school and they were told look you're 18 you think this 18 year old you know chick or whatever who was like, I'm in the occupied free zone or whatever. You think she has any idea what's going to happen with the next 68 years of

her life? Zero clue. Exactly. You take a kid who's in high school, who's naive, ignorant, not saying stupid, just inexperienced. And you say, trust us, we're your adults. You have to do these things. It's no surprise many of these people are trying to throw all of that out the window because the system was broken and they were lied to. The solution isn't communism, though. The solution is walk out into the middle of the field and start growing your own corn and building your own hut. Pave your own path.

Find your own way. But I can't say I'm surprised they want to burn it all down. Just like you said in the, what was it, Occupy, when they gave them a farm? Yeah, they didn't want to do it. Look, you guys want to try it? down. Just like you said in the, what was it? Occupy when they gave him a farm? Yeah. Well, do you look, you guys want to try it? Here's a farm.

There you go. We gave you a farm and what happened? Oh, they lasted like two weeks. Like, but I don't like doing work. Wait a minute. I have to work.

I have to work to live. Fun dude. Yes. Life is not easy, but think about it. You, uh, I,

I know a lot of people and I, I've asked, I've talked to people about this, and they've told me, like, I've had friends, and this was back, you know, 10 or so years ago, like, super depressed, saying, I did everything right. I did everything they said was the right thing to do. And by the time I graduated and I have a degree, there's no jobs. I've got $40,000 in debt.

I can't pay it off. So it's deferring. And now the interest is going up. And it's going to be $60,000 by the time I can't pay it off. So it's deferring. And now the interest is going up and it's going to be 60,000 by the time I actually find a job. This is ridiculous. And I'm like, what you hear from a lot of people as well, you took the loan. That's your fault. You're an adult. And I'm like, I agree with that within reason. I would agree with that on the individual level. If you're an individual, you can't blame anyone but yourself. But on a mass scale, we have an entire system churning out whiny communists you got to realize it's going to rip our our country apart at the

seams yep like so seeing it exactly it's happening in front of our eyes right now that's why i think so you also have man college indoctrination it's not as bad as a lot of people would say it is there are a lot of professors who are nuts but there's there's there's been a couple surveys that found that in certain humanities political fields it's definitely bad really really bad yeah but there's a lot of stuff that's not you know people people kind of exaggerate things to a certain degree yeah i mean you get go ahead no you you get hot press on the on the you know really extreme cases but but it it is to a certain degree indoctrinating people making them think insane things so you put them in this machine that tells them communism actually

isn't all that bad then they graduate now now think about what happens you spend 22 years or so not 22 years but you know you start school at what five so 17 years in an institutionalized learning facility you graduate at 22 every step the way, there's been an authority figure providing everything for you. You go to school. There's the cafeteria. The food's right there. You walk right up. You take it.

It's all part of your meal plan. Then you graduate, and you're sitting there thinking, okay, where's my food? Where's the lunch lady to give me my food? Yeah. Government. Government cheese, please. Hey, you know what I just realized? What?

So you know the reason that school is so expensive is because it's subsidized, right? Is it? Because the government is paying for those schools. That's why they jack up the prices like that. And then they offer to forgive your loans. And then people graduate and they're like, oh, where's the government to help me pay my bills? And then you have to wonder what they were thinking by subsidizing this education that made them think the government was a good thing i think well hold on before we move i want

us to say you you said something about uh basically them going yeah yeah it's a communist system like hmm all right i'm i'm kind of interested in that yeah but now we're finding out i've we've we've talked about this a couple times that china is working with professors, paying them under the radar. Do you hear that huge story today? What? Like millions of dollars to a Harvard professor which got busted. Boom. Let me see if I can find it.

They're a communist party. They want us to be fractured. They want what's happening right now in our country. That's what they want. They want us fractured. They want our youth going against us to split us up. This is exactly what China wants right now. Check this out. That's a good point. Two hours ago, top Harvard professor

indicted in China case. Wow. They say Dr. Charles Lieber, 61, will be arraigned in federal court in Boston on two counts of making false statements to investigators regarding his involvement in China's thousand talents plan. So when was that case? Do you know? I thought it was a while ago. Oh, this guy. He was. Oh, OK. So this. Yeah. OK. He was arrested on January 28th.

So this is the same guy. But the story is. They just made it happen. Oh, so he was officially indicted now. Yeah. Right. Right. So it's a part of that ongoing story.

Yeah. Yeah. They've been doing this. Yeah. They got their little tendrils in everything. Yes, they do. Well, you know what, man? How is this not a main thing?

Like, I was still shocked i'm still shocked that throughout the whole coronavirus thing nobody no mainstream media talked about how we found chinese nationalists bringing in coronavirus yeah that was for years yeah i i'm i am still kind of like when i think about i, wow, that's really kind of crazy. How is that not a bigger story? How is that not a big story? Exactly. It's almost like there's, you know, some group that doesn't want anyone to know about the China involvement. It's because Jeff Zucker at CNN is a reality TV guy.

And he's sitting there and going like, what do I care about this story? There's an orange man. Run Trump. Yeah. Run Trump. Trump. Trump. What do he got caught today eating a cream puff from a local bakery yeah can we make that racist somehow and then and then one guy goes like well cream puffs are white on the inside oh we can make it like a secret racist thing yeah and also there's a story and it's like trump dog whistle to neo

nazis eats cream puff yeah i kid you not it's like you're reading this and you're like puff gate. Yeah, puff gate. Secretly inside the beige treat is white cream. That proves it. Orange on the outside, white on the inside. I don't know. Do you see the story where they were like Trump's salt shaker was bigger? No.

What is wrong with these people? Wait, what? Uh-huh. That was the story? There was a picture and there were like two salt and pepper people wait what uh-huh that was there was a picture and they were like two salt is a salt salt and pepper shaker uh-huh and they were different one was like rectangular one was circular yeah the one by trump was bigger than the one not by trump yeah he loves himself he loves it's not even show off whatever i don't even care anymore come on also the president you get like a certain set right no no no no that wouldn't surprise me if there was a little T on it. No, no, no, no. That would

surprise me. You know what was likely? What? The person came in and put some salt shakers on the table and left. Yeah. And Trump was eaten and they were like, what can we do? What can we do? Look, look at that picture. That salt shaker looks bigger. It's bigger. I remember the infamous two scoops of ice cream story. You remember that? No. Trump gets two scoops of ice cream and everyone else gets one I'm not joking CNN did that story And to be fair

CNN did a story on him getting two scoops Yes So everyone else has won Yes they did Now hold on Wow To be fair It was supposed to be like a silly segment

But it got honestly picked up then By other Yeah yeah yeah Independent is talking about it here. BuzzFeed is talking about it. Did this just happen or something? No, it was a while ago. It was in 2017. Before my awakening. Nightmare world that we live in. And this is what they were covering instead of China sneaking in literal living viruses. They did not think that was a big deal. In unmarked vials. Hidden. And they caught the guy and he lied. He said, no, I don't have anything. And they're like, whoa, we just found these vials

on you. Oh, well, those I'm bringing to a professor at one of your universities. Think about the news reports that could have been breaking news, America. Chinese National has been detained in relation to smuggling of viruses into this country without proper permits.

Yeah. Local security, you know, security experts are concerned about. Instead, we got breaking news America. The president received

two scoops of ice cream. And they were, they were both white. And it was both vanilla. And then they start talking about how like the democrats got chocolate vanilla swirl which shows how they're very interested in ending racism yeah and then you have and then you have two hours of pundits being like listen you don't understand the dog whistle

that is trump getting vanilla so let me explain to you this thing only i can hear and then and another person's like no you're wrong the vanilla swirl isn't a dog whistle it's overt He is saying straight up the argument is actually not about whether it is or isn't racist. It's that it is. Of course. But the connotations are different. No, Nancy Pelosi, she got chocolate vanilla swirl. I think that shows real leadership in this country. And it's like Trump didn't even choose the ice cream.

It was just like some guy had a tray and then they were handing them out. He's like, thank you. And then they were like, oh, he accepted it dude there's literally nothing he can do so you you have cnn nothing i'm imagining jeff sucker he's sitting in a room and he's looking at two folders and he's like and it says like china smuggling and viruses you know and and hiring researchers to steal research orange man bad folder it's the meme with the guy and the button.

Clickbait. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The guy and the button. He's sweating like this. He's sweating. He's like, oh, which one do I choose? No, that's not fair.

No, it's not. No sweat, huh? No, it's not fair. No sweat. No sweat at all. It's a smile. Yeah. A smile and a wink

as he presses Orange Man Bad. Right. Someone, no, okay, here's a better analogy. They hand him two folders and he looks at the Orange Man Bad and he goes, and he puts a cigar out

and he looks at the other one and he goes,, puts a cigar out and he looks at the other one and he goes, and he gets all angry when he sees it and he throws the China report. The paper's just flying everywhere. Don't you ever bring that in my office again.

We don't want any of that garbage. This isn't clickbait enough. Come on. Seriously. What do we look like? A news organization? No, not really. That ended in the 90s.

Yeah. No, it doesn't exist anymore. What were we talking about? I don't know where we are now. the bunny trail something about harvard the harvard guy we were talking about schools we're talking about taking over students how did we get into that though because you said china got into harvard and then we started talking about how it was well not harvard right and then just schools in general yeah yeah now i figured it out i think we're good man maybe we'll go to war with China and this will all just disappear.

You know? You keep saying it and I keep starting to believe it, dude. Thucydides trap, man. Could you imagine if they reinstituted the draft and then that 18-year-old woman in the free zone would be drafted? Equality. Yeah. It is kind of weird that they were talking about the draft again a month ago.

They keep doing it. Why? What? You know what people don't realize is that when it came to Vietnam, the draft was complete BS. Yeah. And I can understand why they were like, okay, we can't do that again. But if we're talking about a real existential threat, there's going to be a draft, man. Like against China with their 1.4 billion people?

How many people are in China? 1.3 billion. 1.3 billion people? How many people are in China? 1.3 billion. 1.3 billion people. Yep. How many have we got? 300 million? 330. 330 million.

Yeah, there'll be a conscription in two seconds, man. Yeah. Could you imagine? This is what's crazy about these, like, wacko lefties. Would they really want them? You don't want these revolutionary wackos to have guns. No, they're not going to take orders well. They're not smart. Well, we saw that guy we talked about it yesterday that he was was he on active duty i don't know if he was he was on active duty so there was someone

on active duty went on a rampage killed some cops killed some cops well he killed one cop for sure okay we don't know if he killed the other two in oakland or something no it was one other cop in oakland he shot someone shot two of them. I think it may have been him because he had a van with weapons in it. But yeah, they're not going to want these people. So then what do we do? It's like we're falling apart from the inside, man. Our military is half the size of China's, just for the record.

Yeah, but we got better tech. We got UFO tech, yo. Not made in China. But you know about that. You know, man? UFO tech. I'm willing to bet. A lot of people don't want to believe it, but I'm willing to bet that we've got military tech you could not even

imagine absolutely sure totally because there was a really funny story i was reading when i was reading about these ufos and it was talking about how they had these weird sightings for ufos in certain areas okay and they passively mentioned it was only like you know 50 miles away from a naval experimental technology center it It's like, what? 2 plus 2 equals... Have you ever played Sudoku? I can see what's happening here, man. You've got a crazy flying ship. Military base.

Military research center. It is very complicated. Was that hard for people to figure out? No, it was not that big a deal. But people still want to claim. They probably made the Space Force just to allocate more budget to the tech that they need to work on. Look, when we hear about the weapons they make, I think six or seven years ago, they created a new streamlined gravity bomb, a megaton nuke that was very small.

Because the original was massive. Yeah. And so they figured out how to do it better and more know more compact and it's just you just drop it out of a plane but we got icbms man we got crazy weapons and that stuff's all what from the 70s how old is that stuff that's pretty old yeah if you think they're not working on better ways to kill yeah and and if you think that the ones they're working on now they're telling you all about I don't buy it man I think there are certain things for

immediate visible use and they're keeping their aces up their sleeve I think the US has got some crazy stuff for sure how much money does the US military spend every year can you look that up a very big number.

It's got to be a lot. Yeah. A crazy amount. Yeah. I mean, there's a good argument that bureaucracy is miserable and fails all the time. Yeah. But I'm not convinced, man. I saw the look on her face.

I just saw the number for the U.S. military spending. Per year? Hold on. Wait, wait, wait. In 2018, they signed the Department of Defense Appropriations Bill. It was $617 billion for the base budget and another $69 billion for war funding. Wow. I'd say we are prepared.

That is lots of dollars. Many dollars. That's a lot of money. Holy cow. Yeah. And then you think about they build all these tanks. They buy all these weapons. And then it gets reappropriated by local police departments and stuff.

Then people get mad about it. Yeah. But, man, I don't think we could be invaded, to be honest. When you've got like a small town of like 300 people and they've literally got armored personnel carriers with like machine guns mounted on them. I'm not kidding. It's like an actual video I was watching about it. Wow. Yeah.

It's like, I think they're good, but that's hand-me-down stuff. True. What is the U.S. hiding up its sleeve? A lot of money apparently. Listen, listen. They didn't just come out and say to the world, we're building a nuclear bomb. Manhattan Project was a secret. They can do the same thing today.

It was compartmentalized. You wouldn't know what you were working on. Well, and American-made products are... They're better. They usually last. Chinese-'t know what you were working on. Well, and American-made products are – They're better. They usually last. Chinese-made stuff tends to break more often. Because they're stealing our ideas. I mean, it is the stuff they're giving us.

So are they making good quality stuff for themselves? Yeah. No, you don't think so? No, man. It's low quality because the people are basically slaves. You know, they walk off buildings and mass suicide. It's horrifying. Yeah, that's true.

Yeah, we shouldn't be supporting it. It's funny because I've heard a lot of arguments about like sweatshop labor. Okay. And the argument from the pro sweatshop people is there are no jobs where they live and this gets them substantially more money than they could have made otherwise. Even if it's dirt, even if it's a quarter per hour. Yeah. That's still, you know, they, they normally make like a penny per hour. Wow. So to them, it's like, this is amazing. Yeah. And I'm like, I still don't think it's a good idea. Agreed.

I mean, I get the argument. It creates jobs in industry and all that stuff, but why don't you just pay them better and actually benefit the area? But in the end, just hire Americans. The outsourcing thing was a big disaster for us. Yeah, I agree. I don't know what their plan was. I guess the plan was like make America the educated elite class. Well, we don't need like a hundred pairs of shirts,

you know, or jeans, you know, we, you know, it's like I have a pair of jeans that I've been wearing for 10 years. They're great. They still, they're good shape. I just got, I just bought a new pair of pants built in America guaranteed for life. So if anything happens, I can send it back to the company, and they fix them for me and send it back to me. So I just got a pair of shorts from them. I'm stoked. That's the kind of stuff I like.

We don't need – you know, it's funny. I was a model for a long time, modeling clothes to sell clothes. And after I left that industry, I'm kind of disgusted by it because it kind of I helped, you know, essentially fast fashion become more of a thing. Like people go buy more stuff. This is look at this new outfit. You need this new thing. And it's like and it just got worse and worse and worse quality over time. It wasn't good quality stuff.

This is one of the biggest problems I have with capitalism. Another thing is one of the biggest problems I have with capitalism is that it humans are incentivized to produce and consume things that lead us to horrible ends yep you know so i think i mentioned this in the show before there's a quote by a a physicist or whatever that if humans ever meet aliens they'll shake hands not because they overcame the nuclear bomb but because they they overcame the Xbox. Meaning that in a capitalist system, humans are driven to their baser instincts, and they keep buying new things, they get fat, they eat terrible food,

they become sedentary, and they play video games, and they whack off all day. However, just because they have a problem with the system doesn't mean I think communism would be the alternative, and that's what a lot of these activists think. True. They're like, we consume too much. Communism.

I'm like, no, no. You will not be able to consume anything. It's not even about that. All of these big natural disasters, you know, like Chernobyl and stuff. No, it's ineffective. Competition works. Yeah. Competition gives, I mean, the space race.

We went to the moon because of competition. It does give us a reason to better ourselves. So there needs to be some kind of a balance between what? The solution is cultural. I saw the look on your face. The solution to this problem is cultural. Okay. Elon Musk needs to launch a rocket to Mars and inspire everybody to be like, I want to be cool. I want space stuff.

Right now, everyone's like, I want 57 of different shirts with different logos. This one's got a bunny on it. This one's got a giraffe on it. And then it's just a bunch of waste product that doesn't do anything to make society better. I mean, he just launched two people into space two weeks ago. Exactly. It was amazing. I cried

a little bit watching it happen, man. I teared up. It was awesome. We need an ambitious. A private company. Right. That's the best part to me. Yeah. Yeah.

That's crazy, huh? It's a first. And that was an investment project, right? Like they were doing a test. What? So that was a test run, right? Well, no, no, no. They've tested it.

That was their maiden voyage, basically. Were they paid to do it? Oh, yeah. that's my question yeah like the u.s government paid them to send a payload yes absolutely yeah they were nasa astronauts sent up wow it costs so much less to do it that way though boom incredible nailed it significantly so yeah what can we do for young kids growing up to have them strive to focus not on stupid consumerism, but focus on projects that make awesome new things. So that's one of the big challenges we have right now. It's not capitalism. Capitalism creates rapid competition and rapid expansive growth, which can be good. It's only

bad if we don't get off this planet. If we can get off Earth and we find better means of propulsion, then we're talking about capitalism being a godsend. Yeah. One of the big complaints is like we consume too much. What did Greta Thunberg say? You're fairy tales of endless economic growth. Yes. Yeah. Well, we start mining asteroids and colonizing other planets.

It will be endless as far as we can tell. Yeah. So let's get on that. Yeah. I don't think she understands that we can't go back. We can't go back to, you know, everyone owning a farm and it being like 1500s. You know, it's like that's not the way it is anymore. We are a technological society.

We are only advancing. We have to figure out how to make it work with our society. Dude, these people people they want to destroy the system they want you living in a cave yeah like that woman that 18 year old free seattle you know the woman who's part of the free capitol hill whatever they seize this this seven block radius right want to destroy civilization that's amazing okay It's like you have no idea how comfortable you have been for your 18 years on this planet. Man. Little they.

Little they. Get eaten by a wild boar in like 20 minutes. Yeah. Could you imagine these people Or stub your toe. Yeah. And you're dead. And get infected. It's like, wow, medicines. Yeah, it's like I stubbed my toe. Oop, it's bleeding. I'm gonna die, I guess. Guess I'll die.

That is. Yeah, it's like I stubbed my toe. Oop, it's bleeding. Well, I'm going to die, I guess. That's it. Guess I'll die. That is. Yeah, and antibiotic resistance. There's a lot of things that are threatening our wonderful way of life. Yep. And we've got to keep striving to improve. I'll also point out, too, with that statement she made about endless economic growth. It's like you can have economic growth in a virtual reality. Yep, exactly.

Virtual world. Yeah, so there's a lot of new jobs that emerge in weird ways, like World of Warcraft gold farming. Yeah. You did that, right? No. No, no, no. What did you do?

You manipulated the market. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's different. That's playing the game. But there were people whose job in China was literally to go around just grinding in a video game to generate currency so that players could buy it from them. Well, back when I was playing Diablo 2, that was a thing, too. People would set up websites where you can go buy an item, whatever item you want, and they would meet up with you in a game and trade it to you.

Yeah. It's like, there were weird jobs. It was expensive stuff, too. Now, I'm not a fan of that. No? No, no. I mean, it's like, it's fun. I don't care that it exists. Gaming is fun. Yeah. I'm not a fan of that. No? No, no. I mean, it's like it's fun. I don't care that it exists.

Gaming is fun. Yeah. I'm just saying. Pay to win. Think about how many people are on this planet working, right? In the United States, ignore the pandemic stuff. Yeah. We had record low unemployment.

But what are the humans doing? I would prefer it if all of the humans were building spaceships. However, I know that if all humans stopped their work and then started working on spaceships, the entire system would collapse because you need more than spaceships to survive. Yeah, we're not automated yet. Yet.

Well, that's not the issue. The issue is in order to make, you know, the polymers for the ship, you need this industry, this industry, that industry. Right. And all of this different work together creates all of these different unique things. That's true.

The problem with communists is that they're like, okay, stop production on the food and start building a nuclear power plant. And they're like, okay, and then they all starve. That's why capitalism is better. It's a decentralized system that allocates resources where they're needed, when they're needed. And if it can't support itself, it goes extinct.

The big challenge, though, is overcoming our baser instincts, which to an extent I'm fine with. You want to have a sugary can of soda like I got right here? You want to have a chocolate cake or whatever? Go for it. But how do we convince more of our economic energy to go towards awesome stuff? New energies, space travel. Can we do better? So people aren't spending all of their time making 50 billion different T-shirts.shirts like could you imagine how stupid it would be if there's like a t-shirt

that said spin the ufo or something on it or just like a picture of me saying harumph i'm kidding by the way pick up your timcast irl shirt in the description below i'm actually i'm actually only half kidding i i do think it's like we have a bunch of stuff we don't need. Right. And within reason, it's fine. But I think we need a cultural shift towards cool projects like the space race was. Yeah. Where little kids were looking up at the sky going, wow. Yeah. And then dreaming of being an astronaut working at NASA.

Well, movies kind of killed that. We're so spoiled. It's like, meh, cool, space, whatever. It's like, yeah, but space. Do you realize what that is out there? It's not. I don't think it's like nah cool space whatever it's like yeah but space do you realize like what that is out there it's not i don't think it's the movies i think it's you want kids to look up to somebody so if when you have a little kid in front of you and you go wow look at outer space they don't know better they're gonna be like okay outer space good yeah if you sit around the tv TV, your mom is crying,

your dad's waving a little American flag, and you're a little kid watching this rocket takeoff, that kid is being told, this is what gets me approval. This is what I must do so that people like me. That's being replaced now by woke cancel culture nonsense

where they're like, I'll get followers if I call you a Nazi. Yeah, so we need to get off of that stuff. Yeah, it's true. Move towards inspiring people to invent things and to travel and get into, you know, sciences. And not even that. Methodologies are important as technologies. Better ways

to do things. Otherwise, we will just eat ourselves to death. Yeah, wither and die. Yeah, we'll be like yeast in a bottle you know eventually we consume everything and then nothing left it just dies i'm confident though i mean wow i am it's nice to see that side view no i'm so look humans have been around for a while and it's in the past like our growth and technological advancement has been exponential yeah and the more people there are the more things we And the more people there are, the more things we produce,

the more things we can produce, the more specialties will exist. So I think certainly the US right now is in serious trouble. But I think humans, for the most part, are going to do crazy things. At the very least, I imagine, we will probably create some kind of self-replicating AI that can colonize the universe. Because that one ship can just be floating endlessly for 10,000 years, land on a planet, adequate resources, replicate, replicate, replicate. And then whatever it is that we are created something that does something for some reason.

I think that might be a little naive because what's the point of rapid self-replication? Maybe it just seeds life. Maybe like these little vessels will just stop and then drop some organic matter and then boom a new planet seeded with life maybe that's what our legacy will be maybe that's what we we were you know wouldn't it be crazy anyway yeah enough craziness unless you wanted to add something well i should well i wanted to i there's i i can talk about space all day long i was you know i wanted to bring up one article but i'd rather i'd rather bring up a bunch. I couldn't bring it up because you've got to do your little trick.

Oh, it's because of this thing. Did I get it? Did you get it? I think I got it. I'm just going to... Here, click to this article. So I'm just going to read a little bit here. This is an article about basically private space companies,

SpaceX, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic. But there's one thing in here that I really love. And here we go. It's basically them talking about when they go into space and there's an effect that happens. It's called the overview effect. And I'll read it here. It says, you see something fundamental changes in you forever. Once you've seen the planet in its natural habitat of space, it's called the overview effect, a term coined by Frank White in 1987. This is a permanent cognitive shift in awareness experienced by astronauts. You don't see national boundaries from orbit. You don't see others or races. You see humanity as a whole.

You see us. You see a living, breathing, fragile orb filled with variety of totally interdependent living creatures, and you see each as unique, fragile, and precious. You can't unknow it. You can't unfeel it. Now, there's something so special about that. I love it. You know, I don't know what that feels like to be floating above Earth looking down, but I can understand it. And I mean, I love space, everything. You know, if you follow me on Twitter, you know, half of my tweets are just space related stuff. And there's something about this that I love. I want more people to feel that way, you know, to get that kind of a feeling. And we need it. We need that overview effect.

People, it's kind of maybe empathy a little bit for others, you know, in the same kind of vibe. I think that effect could actually be dangerous. Really? Yeah. How so? Take someone who's got communist type leanings. Okay. And they're not politically active.

They just think, think man wouldn't it be like wouldn't it just make sense to put homeless people in houses like that's so dumb now take them up to space and look down on the planet now they have this feeling where they're like this is you know this this this feeling they have could potentially activate them into a look the point i'm trying to say is there are a lot of people who might be really, really dumb who get inspired by that feeling, seeing the Earth as one, and then involving themselves in matters they should not be involved in. They lack the ability, the skill, the intelligence, the understanding. And then they see this and they're like, we are a one. We must protect the planet.

It's so precious and connected. And then they become some kind of weird lefty SJW cultist. Ego terrorist or something. Yeah, yeah, something like that too. Yeah, I see it. kind of weird lefty SJW cultist. Ego terrorist or something. Yeah. Yeah. Something like that, too. Yeah, I see it. You know, I understand.

It's crazy, though, man. It really is true. We are, people don't realize we are not freely independent creatures just walking around doing our thing. Yeah. It's fascinating to me. I was reading about the discovery of air. Has that ever occurred to you?

Like, that people had to discover air? Because to a... that air exists yeah around us because to a human there you can't see anything right and you can only kind of feel wind and before they understood that there was actually something with mass here like we're in an atmosphere right to them it was like there was just nothing there and so i was reading about how it got discovered it was because they had these these like brass balls with holes in them and a tube that would come out and you'd put your thumb you you dip it in water put your thumb over the end and pull it out and the water stays and then you put it over your head to shower right okay so this one dude was like let me put my

finger my thumb over the hole and then put it in and see if the water fills up sure enough it didn't and he was like there must be something in there blocking the water. And that's when they realized, like, air is this tangible thing. That's cool. So it's like, the reason I bring that up is people often don't think about, we are swimming in an atmosphere. It's just gaseous. It's like, it could be water.

It could be any other medium. But we are in this, like, big, like, puddle, basically. Yeah. The air we breathe comes from trees, algae, those other things. other medium, but we are in this like big like puddle basically. The air we breathe comes from trees, algae, those other things. Without them, we die. We don't get our food. We really are connected to everything in this ecosystem. Yep, we are. What's really cool about being smart is that we

created suits that allow us to leave this and, you know, go into other places and stuff. It would be really cool if we could make a biodome in a ship. Actually, I was just watching that movie Pandorum. You ever see that one? So it's basically... That's the one that was in there?

It looked pretty bad, actually. You didn't like it? I walked through the room. I'm judging on two seconds. It was a little silly, but I like the concept. It's basically that they created an ark. It's funny. It's kind of what I was talking concept. It's basically that they created an ark. Okay. It's funny.

It's kind of what I was talking about, that theory of humans setting out an ark. So Earth is overpopulated. Resources are strained. They create a giant vessel with 60,000 people. And it's supposed to go off and then colonize a new planet. It's a 123-year journey. So they get put into hypersleep stasis. Okay.

And then I'm not going to spoil the movie i mean it's a really really old movie but basically like they wake up and like everything's in chaos but it's just a surprise right right right right i know it's it's it's stupid but uh i like the idea that we could do this and i wonder should we just do it right now like elon musk wants to go to mars why don't we make like a biodome with, you know, a bunch of people and have them just like go off and do their thing? Well, I've been to the biodome. Really? What are you?

Someone's out there. I bet it's a bunny. No, someone's shining a light. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Miami all over again. No. Yeah, I want to know who's out there shining a light in our yard.

We know what to do now. Oh, it's like the neighbor or something No someone in the yard with a flashlight Weird We should go check it out No I'm not worried about it Wait totally derailed Let's go to Super Chats

What up everybody So if you haven't already Make sure you smash the like button Otherwise We will think you don't like us no i need that liking uh liking really does help apparently because uh it really does so a lot of people don't know this there's like some rumors and myths about how liking and disliking works and they think that it doesn't matter it really does and they claim that it doesn't work

it doesn't doesn't affect youtube said it doesn't no no it doesn't make a difference i don't know i don't think so i think they've like said almost nothing about it but you can really see that when people dislike how it negatively impacts analytics like really like youtube will just can your video so like when you see people dislike videos in brigade they're really shutting it down and when you you thumbs up, YouTube promotes it and shows it to more people. It really does. So like and share. But yeah, so let's read.

Grim Soul Banisher says, Man, this is a busy week. My anniversary, my daughter's birthday, and then my birthday. Sending some love your way. Spin the UFO. Ooh, congrats. Happy birthday all.

Because I would like to figure out why we're having all these problems on Earth and why we can't get into space. And why we're all caught up choking each other to death down here. You know, I don't think I have a really good answer because I've never really thought about it, but I really would be interested in having Thomas Jefferson sit down and like read some of these articles and then get his thoughts on things. Like,

did you think this is where we would be? You know, first of all, he'd be like, what is this floating device? What is this? What is this? It's like,

You know, see what he has to say in terms of being one of the people who actually drafted this country, created it, where we are now. I don't really, I think it's kind of an obvious

If a single leftist sub gets banned, I'll eat my MAGA hat. Jack Dorsey himself retweeted a video of a woman calling for a glorifying violence, saying

if she said if they burned it all down, it wouldn't be enough. So F your building, F your target, F your McDonald's, whatever. Whoa. So that's not glorifying violence, but Trump saying like, hey, watch out. You know, don't loot. You might get shot. Yeah. That's glory.

you know and chet chisholm says adam the old dude has a bacillar skull fracture watch the bit i posted and you can see that he hit his head and near the inside of his skull crack open oh wow yeah so so for the record i wasn't saying that i believed one way or the other all right i had a tweet just because the president tweeted about it. It's going around Europe. I don't know if you noticed the pictures that I posted where there was a German slogan and that basically said the left will trick people with no end, essentially.

They can't stoop any lower to do tricks like this. So I was like, wow, people are really flipping out over this. They're splitting us up even more. Is it real? Is it fake? So I don't know if it's real or fake. A lot of people were talking. Who do you think?

Do you think it's real? I just cracked the case. I solved the mystery. And it was thanks to that person asking about a bacillus skull fracture because one of the symptoms of a bacillus skull fracture is fluid leaking from the nose or ear bleeding from the air consistent with what happened to this guy the base of the skull and the ear bleeding right so what are you so what are you saying it is not blood and a mask and a mask on the back of the head oh yeah that's what they were saying people keep sending me this picture, and I'm like, no. I think the dude was...

Shiesty? Yeah, sure. Fine, whatever. We've seen video of him, you know, being a little grubber instigator. Yeah. But... People were saying he was trying to give the helmet back. No, that was his helmet.

That was his helmet, right. You know, it's like... Should have kept it on. He shouldn't have been there. I don't know. It's like... I don't think it was a false flag. Like, he walked up and went, oh, hovens, and then fell down.

I think he walked up and they were like, move, move. And they gave him a light push and he's an old man and he fell down. And, you know, my issue with the whole situation is you've got to have police who are conscious of the individual. Not just treating everyone the exact same. That's true. They do that. Yeah, if there's a journalist, and this is mind-blowing to me. You see an obvious news crew. I don't get why some jurisdictions, they don't do this. They do that. Yeah, if there's a journalist, and this is mind-blowing to me, you see an obvious news crew.

I don't get why some jurisdictions, they don't do this. Some do. So when I was in D.C. and they arrested everybody, they mass-arrested the whole group surrounding us, I called the lieutenant, explained who I was. He said, no one's getting out. You're all under arrest. And I was like, just letting you know who I am. He's like, all right.

Eventually, he came out and pulled all the journalists out. I'm like, clearly we're not here to break windows and cause trouble. You let us out, we're going to walk and do what you ask us to do. So there's no point in arresting us and wasting your time and our time. But some cops don't care. And they'll literally just grab you and be like, we're arresting you. It's like, why are you going to waste your time? Some journalists, man, I'll tell you what.

When we were surrounded in D.C., they officially said we were arrested. The first thing I did was I asked for the supervisor. And they were like, yeah, they called it. They said, hey, can we get Lieutenant over here? The guy walks over. I think his name was Lieutenant Washington. He was a cool dude. And I said, I just want to let you know I'm a journalist.

And he was like, well, I can't let you out. Everyone's being arrested. And I was like, I'm not here to argue. Just want to let you know. And he's like, all right. Some other journalists did the same thing. Eventually, he came back and he said, he started looking at everybody, pointing them out. And then he pulled us out.

We showed him our IDs. Do you know why some of the other journalists got arrested? How come? And they complained about it. And they were like, I need legal representation. This is tyranny. I have video of some of these journalists screaming at the top of their lungs with spit flying out of their mouths into the faces of these cops, like within inches of their

face. I'm a journalist, you mother effer. you can't do this to me don't you know and so the cops are like shut up you're not getting out nice try no and i'm sitting in the back just like minding my own business you know doing my thing and i got let out that was it got out of the it was covered in pepper spray, though. Let's see. Keith Rogers says, I missed last night. I had to catch it this morning. When you spoke of Bernie Sanders' left black eye, I recall John Kerry, General Mattis,

Yeah, maybe just anti-Trump, though. Long Dong John says, how would a non-police citizen militia handle a 9-11 situation? Run around waving their arms in the air. I don't know, man.

was calling the sheriff to go shut Ace Speedway down and the sheriff was like no I'm not going to do that I'm not going to do that sorry so the governor was like well I'm harumph it was a true harumph moment

and now the governor came down and shut it down for an imminent threat to society. But the protests are okay. Yeah, they're fine. Wow. All right, so spin it. UFO time. Mike says, A channel USA Love is stealing your video on YouTube.

Yeah, well, you know, a ton of them do that. I don't know. Whatever. I did see that. It don't know. Whatever. I did see that. It's so bad. What is it? It's just someone just cuts out your box and wears a face mask and just is doing... What the heck?

One says, Pennsylvania Senate just passed a bill to end the lockdown 3119. Now to the PA House. Woo woo. Awesome. Yeah, New Jersey. New Jersey lifted it, right? Today. Yeah, we lifted it today.

But that was to stay home. Is that the businesses, too? I don't know. I need to check it out. I want to go out and get a burrito. First thing, I heard it, and I went. Yeah, we lifted it today. But that was to stay home. Is that the businesses too? I don't know. I need to check it out. I want to go out and get a burrito. First thing, I heard it, and I went right to the bowling alley. Yep. We were like, food.

It was still closed. Still closed. I think it's just businesses. I was bummed. I would have been by myself. We got to go to a nice diner and sit down. Go to a movie. I want a man to walk up with a nice suit on and a cloth on his arm and to take a fancy bottle of water over his arm and pour it into my glass.

And I'll just be like, it has been months. So fancy. Please, sir. Fancy water, please. That's what he wants. Nanya Biz says, some websites and hashtags for you to cover. Eight to can't wait. Eight to abolition.

The latter of which promoting such anti-police measures as making sex work legal and granting government housing. Many users are Antifa adjacent. Let's see. The Kill a Clown says, when you decide to leave NJ, consider central Wisconsin. Sure, it's cold, but there's a lot of room. Also, what's your take on the I'll beat Joe Biden gaffe? Oh, he said B. He didn't say B. Yeah, yeah. He said B. Because he was talking about his record. There were like some people said, you're not going to do a good job. And he goes, you know, you've done these things in the past. And he goes, look, I got a 40 year record. And you can assure that, you know, when I take it in, I'm going to be Joe Biden. Yeah. And everyone

said B. When I first covered the story. Yeah. I said B. I didn't even know there's a controversy over him saying B. Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah. Because I didn't hear it. I was like, that makes sense. He's going to. It did make sense. Yeah. Funny enough, one of the few times he actually made sense, everybody else freaked out. Right, right.

I was like, wait, wait. He actually made sense. Come on. Give him a break. That's pretty funny. Here's an interesting one. St. Grizzly says, Tim, don't you think all the leftist voters leaving the cities like San Francisco and NYC are going to change the electoral college votes purple in the flyover states? Trump could be the last Republican president.

That's a very, very good point. Maybe it's all part of the secret plan. Drive the blue people into the red areas so that Trump loses the electoral college. Yeah, but I feel like a lot of people are turning red. No, no. This year they're doing absentee ballots. Mail-in voting means they're going to be voting in that same blue district. Oh, okay.

Yeah, it's too close to the election. I don't think you can change your location that soon. You need like 17 months or something. I think I actually have to go back to Arizona to vote because I'm registered to vote there. Because you can't change that. No, I can't. So I'll have to fly out there. You can't right now.

You can after, I think. Or if you did, it wouldn't take effect until later or whatever. Okay, yeah. So it may change things in the future, but I think, look, man, what just happened with all these liberals rushing out to buy guns with a milquetoast fence hitter jumping off the fence to go and grab a Sig M400? I'm sitting on that fence and Crowder's like, hey, buddy, pulls out a cigar, come pulls out a cigar come and get it and i'm like jumped right off and ran up to him like thank you sir i haven't gotten it yet we'll do it we'll you know we'll do a video whatever not boxing when

it comes i'm gonna get a i want to do a photo op of him sitting on the fence be a friend fence korean yeah yeah fence korean so so listen if if look i think moderates got pushed hard right like on 2a specifically being like we are all about this liberals are now like i should reconsider my position yeah so even if even if these people are moving they're now going to be surrounded by people who are going to influence them yeah these are people who had a bunch of friends in the city and they're in their bubble now they're going to be surrounded by a bunch of what religious conservative types or moderate conservative types yeah their opinions will change they're going to be surrounded by a bunch of what religious conservative types or moderate conservative types.

Yeah. Their opinions will change. They're going to be sitting down at a restaurant and someone's going to be like, well, you know, Trump's a racist. And someone's going to be like, what do you mean? Like, but how? Yeah. And they'll go, oh, I don't know.

That's it. I was just told that. When they're not surrounded by their, you know, remember, remember, remember Rick and Morty when all the Jerry's come out of that machine and they're all shaking each other's hands no i don't remember that you know that one right yeah they're all like shaking yeah so yeah yeah a bunch of jerrys are being replicated for whatever reason and they all walk out like shaking each other's hands and like just like proud of each other not actually doing anything okay when you're in the city that's it so you walk up to your friends you go hey guys trump am i right and they all laugh and high five you yeah

at the same time though, the internet still exists. A lot of these people don't go out and socialize this, the internet. It's the same thing. I hear you, but listen man. Some of these people who have fled San Fran and New York, they're going to find themselves sitting in a

diner and there's going to be a server. And the server's going to be wearing a MAGA hat. And what are they going to do? The server's going to be wearing a MAGA shirt. And what are they going to do? Server's going to be wearing a MAGA shirt. Are they going to go, oh no, this is like Nazi Germany all over again. Waiters with shirts. That looks awfully familiar, like a video I watched today. I don't know if you guys saw that video of the woman being like, I got a letter.

A custom Trump hat. It's army fatigue. A custom Trump hat yeah she said it sounds she's like i don't know if you know this but hitler made the jews wear stars and this feels like the opposite of that like the opposite of that sounds great people choose to wear hats that happens every day lady yeah this gotta be a fake video like like a joke, right? No, I've seen other videos now showing up because Cassandra was basically doing this. Cassandra Fairbanks, I don't know if you guys follow her, but she posted another one. She's like, yeah, this seems to be legit. And it was this girl talking about like, look, I did this video.

I don't have that many followers, but this one's doing really well. So I want to just make sure everyone knows. I'm totally serious. I really want to know this stuff. and I'm like, oh my gosh, stop. You should have just left it at the one video. All right, let's see what we got here. Isaac and Bareka says,

Aesop's Fable, The Frogs Who Desired a King. When you desire to change your condition, make sure that you can really improve it. I will. Here we go. Gold gives us the breakdown. Gen X is 65 to 79. Millennials are 80 to 99. Gen Z is 2000 to 15.

And Alpha is 2015 to 2030. Why are you shaking your head? Because I think that it's 20 years. It's supposed to be every 20 years, which kind of goes along with what you're saying about the theory that they developed. That's why. I thought it was 20, not 15.

I'm not sure. I know there's a lot of conversation about it, though. DN says, what happens when the utilities get turned off in the free zone because they stopped paying the bills? We're going to find out. Then they're going to complain that they're being genocided by the regime, and they're going to call for the UN to aid them. Renee says, the greatest generation,

end of World War II, baby boomers, due to the end of the war, early 60s, then Gen X, late 60s to 80s, millennials, 80s to early 2000,

Gen Z, early 2000 to present. Thanks again. Appreciate it. Stacey, thanks for the super chat, and Aaron, thanks for joining. Thank you.

Rye CH says, Tim, I got a 9mm pistol yesterday from a private sale, and all I had to do was show my state ID, sign a bill of sale, and I walked away with my gun. No essay, nothing. You need to get out of New Jersey.

Yes. That's the plan. And I guess there's like a, what's it called? Bearing Arms website, bearingarms.com, whatever. They wrote an article about you? They wrote an article about me and they hit the nail on the head. They basically wrote about what I was talking to Crowder about and i explained that was difficult and they gave me the runaround and they wrote that on the sub site they believe it is needlessly circuitous to make it very difficult for people

to actually do it yeah they can't ban the gun outright but they can make it so difficult people just give up yeah and i did give up several times confused so that's i i didn't say that but that's literally how i felt every time they gave me different instructions that made no sense i was like they're they're sending me through hoops on purpose so i don't do this yeah but they can't legally stop me so we'll see how that plays out big ben howard says i am a democrat candidate for state rep act blue is an activist organization that's basically a super PAC that funds and organizes democratic campaigns they're Oh, interesting. Thank you. Student of History says,

Yeah. Dude, man. So we were talking about the other day. Cities, man. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, dude. You have no excuse to complain about Republicans. If you if everything you complain about is rooted in cultural issues, Democrats have wrought Democrats, Democratic cities. These people live in New York and they go Trump and the Republicans. And it's like Trump's been president for a couple of years. You're in a city, in a state, with congressmen, with governors, all Democrat, always Democrat, and all the problems you complain about all the time, racism and police brutality and stop and frisk.

That's your politicians. That's Democrats, dude. Yep. Go to a Republican city. Are they doing this stuff? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

You don't hear about it. Republicans aren't complaining about it. That's't know. You don't hear about it. Republicans aren't complaining about it. That's also true. I don't hear about it. Then it's funny that I hear this line a lot, especially with Black Lives Matter. So I think the dude's name is Andrew Schultz. Is that his name? The comedian?

I'm not sure. He's hilarious. He's amazing. He had a really great video today. And I would give it an A-. I'd give it an A-. That's high marks, though. It is high marks. It's high marks. It is high marks.

It's really good. It's really funny. I think he's very thoughtful. I think it's very smart guy. But he does play that line where he's like, he's like, I don't fear that I'm going to get killed by a cop when I encounter them. And he's like, and that's the thing that you got to understand that there is a fundamental difference in how police police engage with black communities.

And I'm like, I appreciate it, dude, but that is coming from somebody probably who is rich. Because I grew up on the south side of Chicago. That's not how it works. Like, yeah, we were worried every time we saw a cop. You were driving in your car, you got worried. It doesn't matter what your race was. So I forgot exactly what the point I was going to go off on that was.

Oh, yeah, the cities, right. So you have people saying that white people don't fear for this, fear this way that the black people do. And it's because of race. No, it's because most white people in this country that are voting conservative are in rural areas with small police departments. That's why they don't fear. But if you're if you're white, if you're mixed Latino or black and you're up on the south side of

Chicago, yeah, you're worried. Like I mentioned before, they would tell us to call the fire department. If somebody was threatening your life, you need the police. But for any like low level stuff, they would say call in a fire because the fire department will show up and it'll deal with whatever the problem is in a non-threatening way. So it's easy for people who aren't from cities to be like, this is why white people don't fear this. It's like, nah, man, you don't get it, man. Go live in a poor area. Sure, if you live in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, you're not worried. They're not

going to beat you down because you're rich. Heavy Arms Guy says, the way BLM operates reminds me of the Nazi party. They create a villain, slowly gain political cultural power. Eventually they take over and displace common Americans. Scary times. Now I want to make a point and I'll make it clear. I'm not trying to compare the two in terms of what their ideologies are, but I see so many people blindly just posting these memes and stuff. And I'm like posting anything. And so when you ask questions about why the Germans were so willing to just follow Hitler, it's the same reason people are mindlessly watching any kind of major event or American Idol or sporting events. It's just because people will

do whatever is popular, what society says. So when I see all the people I know posting the black squares on Instagram, I'm like, bro, you have no idea what you're talking about. You just saw someone else did it. So you did it. And it gets dangerous when you, when you, when you make it about political ideology. Now you've got that video from Bethesda, Maryland,

while they're all sitting there going like, I will love my neighbor. Yes, I will. And it's like, bro, that's, that's,

that's like cult indoctrination stuff. Yeah. So you're now, you have people blindly just following this because everyone told him to do it. I think it's popular. I don't care, man. I'm not joining your cult. If everybody goes nuts,

I got no problem going off in the middle of the woods. You guys have your thing. I'm going to get a dog and go fishing and mind my own business. Don't tread on me. Ray Johnson says,

the Dems taking over Black Lives Matter is the equivalent of the Republicans hijacking the Tea Party movement. Politicians will always adopt a cause if it can be made to serve them. I completely agree, man.

I completely agree. Owl Aquatic says, When unconditional loyalty to a brotherhood takes precedent over integrity and service to the community, you have ceased to be a peace officer and instead become a criminal gang member. Spin UFO. I'm fighting off a sneeze. I'll spin it. Perry Does Mapping says,

I'm here to tell you that the furry fandom is divided like it is out in the real world. Antifa, pedos, etc. are driving people out. I've seen my fellow conservative furry friends get attacked. It's sad. Well, there you go. Bassmaster says, Internet historian has a good video documenting what happened at a furry convention. Worth checking out.

Someone sent it to me and I watched it. Yeah. Ugh. But is that a smear campaign against furries? Highlighting the worst? I don't like that word, smear. I don't see it. Smear.

Wolf from the Block says, You should check out Internet Historian, the best historian. Not alt-right or crazy lefty because of my anime profile pic. Love your show, guys. Appreciate it. Mark Robertshaw says, My best friend is a mental health counselor. He goes to furry conventions to get clients and it works. So many of these people have untreated mental health issues. That's the problem these days. Wow, man. Shun says, they were an open, welcoming community and they got infiltrated by these zealots. The community was not like

this 10 years ago. The mindset became an infestation brainwashing people, and all the derangement is palpable. Bummer, man. Mr. Obi-Wan says, my theory is that these people haven't actually experienced the harshness of nature. For example, during the winter in interior Alaska, it's literally, Alaska is literally trying to kill you's minus 45 degrees. But things still have to get done outside. Keep up the good work. I would love to go to interior Alaska in the middle of winter, just like spend some time. That'd be great. I've been to Alaska.

It's beautiful. You've been there in the middle of summer. Which part of? I flew in Anchorage and then stayed in a little town called Girdwood. Girdwood. Yeah, I believe. That's a little ski town. I'll tell you what, that's my plan.

When the whole country becomes lefty-identitarian weirdos, I'm just going to go up to Alaska, man. What's that town? Is it Wheeling? Maybe? Barrow? I don't know. Barrow is farthest west, I think. I like watching those living in the Alaskan wild shows.

Yeah. I love that stuff. Alaska looks awesome, dude. Ellen Lau says, Canada has gone insane. Black Lives Matter doesn't care about racial justice and socialism blows. Parents often told to go back to China.

Surprise, not by white folks. Mom is Taiwanese and dad ran from China after the commies ended his dad. Yikes, bummer, man. Megan, thanks for joining. Thank you. Samuel Farmer says, where is the Occupy Wall Street farm? And do you know if it is still available

to be used? I grew up on a farm, hated it, but now I kind of miss it. For all opportunity, a blank slate offers. This was nine years ago. Yeah. So I have no idea what happened. No idea. Yeah. Jake says, you folks forget that debt forgiveness is also taxed as income that is another issue for sure let's see sunlit bogdan ec morgan and yurik thanks for becoming members thank you awesome thank you crisper says what do you honestly think will happen to the cities that are dismantling their police departments i worry about cities hiring privatized police or mercenary companies to fill the void what was that video you showed me me about Chicago? It's a crazy shootout, man. Chicago's crazy right now.

So there's a video. I don't know. I couldn't find a date on it. And it's just a shootout in Chicago, supposedly recently. Yeah, yeah. And it's just, it sounds like the 4th of July, man. But it's not. Like, no.

They're definitely rifles. Yeah, dude. Those are not even handguns. Not handguns. No, no, no. Those are loud cops. And people are like, what's going on here? Bang, bang, bang, bang, no. They're definitely rifles. Yeah, dude. Those are not even handguns. Not handguns. No, no, no. Those are wild cops. And people are like, what's going on here? Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.

Cops are shooting back. It's just crazy. St. Louis, that was a major shootout. It's insane, man. So I'll tell you what's going to happen when they get rid of their police departments. It's going to be a purge. Yep. Like I was reading, what was it?

Murray Hill riots? I love it. The taxi company went and burned down the limousine company. Like, that's not about justice in any way. That's just like, settlement scores, man. Wild West. Yeah, it's like, you're competing with me, I'll take you down. Levi Williams says, every time Lydia says woo, so does my heart. LOL. Also, what do you think about holding police to the same standard as the military? Illegal to unionize, extra duty,

pay forfeitures, subject to UCMJ. No, the police need to be closer to the community, not subject to, I don't know, there's maybe an overlap there, but I don't know enough about how that would work with UCMJ anyway to make, you know, have an opinion, a strong one at least. AW and Calvin, thanks for becoming a member. Thank you both. Joseph says, outside official state functions, presidential families have to pay for their own meals. Interesting. Mike Onega says, I am a history major and I want to be a teacher. I have complained about bias and nothing happened.

I think the only way to win is to debate them and win while others watch. I don't agree, man. Because they don't debate. As soon as you start talking, they start chanting. Yeah. They just call you names. Or just waiting for you to finish talking so they can shove whatever ideas they have down your throat bobby g says dear millennials investigate college admins not trump admin harass college admin staff not trump admin staff the ones who taught you and gave you lifelong debt without a job is your enemy not trump caleb field says our

biggest advantage over china currently is our naval force. China's cyber advantage is our biggest threat from them. And that is a serious, serious, serious threat, man. That's very true. Mr. Paul, you know what I find fascinating? What? There was supposedly an airstrike headed towards, I think this was Iran.

I'm not entirely, maybe, I think it was Iran. Trump said he turned it around. And he thought, he said something like, you know, it would have killed 150 Iranians. And we didn't think the retaliation was, you know, fair or equal or whatever. So Trump canceled the strike. However. A refinery of some sort in Philadelphia exploded just before the strike got called off. Now, that could just be me connecting the dots where they don't need to be connected, but...

What kind of refinery? What do you mean? I don't remember exactly what it was, like an oil plant or chemical plant of some sort blew up. And there are ways to blow up industrial facilities from anywhere in the world, because I used to go to Black Hat and DEF CON, the hacker conventions, and I actually had someone give me a demonstration

of a remote detonation of a chemical facility. They said what they could do is they could cause two pumps to flow in the same direction, overloading and then causing a pipe burst, which, depending on the chemical substance, would detonate. So I'm not saying anything. I'm just saying I found it interesting. And I had a bunch of security experts and, like,

you know, conflict journalists tell me, no, no, no, nothing like that, nothing like that. But I'm like, isn't it at least possible that we will see some of our water pump facilities, our electrical grid or something be attacked if we enter a real conflict? Isn't that possible? And if we are sending an airstrike in, wouldn't they try and go after us in some way? Yep. Apparently, like when we did that elephant walk in guam we had we had to actually pull all of our planes out because china is a weapon that could just wipe out guam

and take out all the planes at once oh i didn't hear that yeah so we were like okay back off i heard they were just decommissioning them oh is that those planes yeah so it was kind of like their final huzzah yeah here we go el ganso says tim i think you're underestimating how inefficient the government budget is. Perhaps. But didn't we lose like some trillions of dollars just before 9-11? We did. Yeah.

What was that? Like two trillion. I don't know what that amount was. And I just heard about that when we were looking at whatever, Zeitgeist or whatever that movie was. Yeah. Yeah. Supposedly the room that was handling the investigation.

Oh, yeah. Is the exact place that got hit but it's funny enough though space force this the the new show on on uh on netflix is basically just the space force running amok spending money and i actually have a friend of mine who is in the navy he's down in norfolk in uh virginia and he's like it's actually so accurate like scary and i'm like what super it sounds like a joke like yeah it's not it's not even good it's bad so ineffective i worked for a company man dude you know they're getting sued who by the space force yeah yeah yeah i worked for a company that had a ridiculous budget. Okay. And it was insane to see what they would spend money on. Gosh, waste.

The craziest thing was there was somebody who kept invoicing. Somebody I worked with invoiced the company when I worked with them. Okay. And I was like, I want to hire this person for this one project. Right. And then after I had finished, they kept sending monthly invoices. What? Even though they weren't working on anything.

And then it wasn't until like a year later, they said to me like, I said like, so what's left in the budget? Because I'm looking to, you know, this project. And they were like, oh, you're good. Everything's, you know, you're totally fine. Like everything replenished. And they were like, the only thing that's really been going on is, you know,

so-and-so's monthly invoice or whatever. And I was like, who? Yeah, what? And they're like, yeah, him and his two staff members. And I was like, what? I was like, I never authorized that. And they, him and his two staff members. And I was like, what? I was like, I never authorized that. And they're like, I don't know. And I was like, what do you mean you don't know?

Is my signature on any of this stuff? Like, I don't know. And I'm like, you guys have been paying this dude for a year? Wow. He just, he just gets that. Hey, man. He knows how it works. He found out.

Yeah, he figured, hey, I'm not complaining. Not my money. Worth a shot. Not my money. So good for him dude oh man mark robertshaw says see the u.s navy test a new laser weapon that can make the chinese anti-ship missiles worthless that's just what they are showing they also have rail guns yeah i once i was reading about a rail gun that was so powerful they fired it at a helicopter and it

caused vacuum pressure that crushed the helicopter. Whoa. Yeah. I don't know if that's true. It was a long time ago I was reading this. Because when it exited, it sucked all the air out like a tin can. Wow. Yeah. That's crazy.

The Mr. Pickle says, we've been landing, landed planes on boats since World War I. The Chinese landed their first plane in the boat in 2010. We're good on defense. Wow. Wow. P. Smitty says, Tim, can you please say witness protection in your best Tony Soprano voice? I don't know what Tony Soprano sounds like.

I've never seen that show either. Steven Gable. Tim, we have one big advantage on China. Good or bad, we have 30 plus years of almost continuous combat experience. When was the last time China fought a war? An actual war? Yeah, but you gotta watch out, man, because like what the Russians did, it's the Zap

Brannigan strategy. Just keep sending them. Wave after wave of my own men until the kill bots quota was filled. Was it? Yeah. I don't remember exactly. On Futurama. They can only kill a certain amount before they shut down.

Yes. Oh, man. Just send wave after wave of my own men. Terrible. That's what China will do, though. As a sacrifice they are willing to make. Are they, though? Maybe.

I mean, I've seen a lot of stuff coming from China that I'm sure they don't want the world to see. I have a feeling most of the Chinese citizens can't stand the CCP. Nah, I don't know about that. Very indoctrinated. Okay. Worse than Russians. That's the optimism in me, though. And seeing these videos of people are like we do they're doing these

little selfies like this can get me killed yeah just wanted to say to the rest of the world they are not they don't represent all of us yeah I was like yes freedom I'm here for you all right let's see where we're at here I love when YouTube gives us the big old job we'll take this time to tell you all to smash that like button.

type profession is farming anymore. It may be because I myself took part in the system, but you really don't see a family who has multiple generations

of accountants. I don't know. That would be a weird thing, right? We're just really good with numbers. Just imagine it's like, you know, it's like, so what do you do for a living?

Ah, I am an accountant like my father and my father before him and his father before him. It's like, that's very noble profession. Yeah, I know. Four generations. Exactly.

No, but for real though, there actually is. Like, there are family businesses that do accounting. Yeah, I'm sure. And they'll have their family come in and do work. It happens, you know. Austin Taylor, thanks for real, though, there actually is. Like, there are family businesses that do accounting. Yeah. And they'll have their family come in and do work. It happens, you know? Austin Taylor, thanks for becoming a member.

Oogie Boogie says, planned Destiny at launch and sold raid carries, and my crew and I made $35,000 in around four months just as a hobby. Dope. Whoa. I saw them. Those websites still exist. People still do that. You can do that?

I mean's now people do like trials of osiris carries you know you got to go flawless to get specific guns that's crazy yeah yeah hey man those are jobs you know the grizzly says hey tim if i can make a suggestion for your tabletop channel i say you guys should use dwarven forge tiles they're little magnetic painted squares that can link together and they make dungeons and buildings. I love their stuff.

Ooh, you want to write that down? That's cool. Dwarven Forge. That's good. I'll buy some. Yeah, that sounds fun. Samuel Farmer says, Adam, sci-fi movies,

TV shows are what inspired me to get into science and technology. It showed me what could be and seeded a desire to create things no one else could dream of. Not there yet,

but I'm working towards it. Awesome. Awesome. I think sci-fi movies are good, man. I feel the same way. Because someone will they'll make they'll make it in a movie and then someone will be like how could we actually do that yeah star trek yeah cell phones dude tablets yeah tablets like picard's always holding a little tablet and he's like it was it

was touchscreen too wasn't it oh yeah man now we made it we invented it yeah i mean look at look at the i don't know who who saw the dragon capsule like the the interior they they got rid of all the buttons yeah they had there's only a few buttons i can't even think like 5 000 miles of copper in the original wow you know the space spacecraft so they got rid of all of it now it's just three flat screens it's like yes star trek that's basically the same. That's so cool. Here we go. Yeah, it's dope. Tim Taylor says,

we have Navy destroyers that can fire three or four times farther than any other modern naval weapons, and the impact is like a bomb. We have one of those in the South China Sea. It can literally bomb their cities from the sea for pennies, given the ammo is cheap. Wow.

Spicy. Love it. All right, so we'll take a couple more. We got a ton of new members. And I will... Thank you, everyone, for becoming members. Frank, Alex, Peter, Ligma, and Eric. Ligma, that's a good one. Thanks for becoming members.

Thank you. Justin Brom says, everyone needs a micro farm. Growing your own food, raising your own chickens, beekeeping, hunting and fishing. Skills like grafting, pest management, equipment and infrastructure maintenance, all useful. And then if we get into a war, we'll all be very, very self-sufficient people. Good, sir. I applaud you.

Indeed. You know what, man? Maybe we should put together a nonprofit that is very, very simple and very cheap, but encourages and helps people set up gardens and mini farms on their property. That'd be so cool. If you've got a lawn. Permaculture, yeah. Yeah.

Just grow a little bit of food, you know, like you were saying the other day, get rid of lawns. Why do we have lawns? We spend so much energy on grass and we don't do anything with it. I know. What do we do? Do we mulch it? Like just compost it?

You can at least grow alfalfa and sell it to a farm for cows to eat or something. They don't even do that. You know who likes alfalfa? Bunnies. Bunnies like alfalfa. They love to a farm for cows to eat or something. They don't even do that. You know who likes alfalfa? Bunnies. Bunnies like alfalfa. They love it. The buns. No, it is funny. We have a garden. You literally just put it in the ground. It grows. It's

magic. It's very natural. It's amazing. And then you come out one day and you're like, I got food. We have peas, carrots. But think about what we do with grass. Yeah, grass just grows too. And then we're like, throw it in the trash. I mean, if you're one of those deer people, it makes sense. Sure, have some grass. That is the only case in which it makes sense.

If you're a deer person and you want to eat grass. Yeah. Yeah. All right, let's see. Where are we at? Patrick Carey says, Tim, your channels are having notifications delayed. I receive them days after the video is posted. I have to look across all three of your channels multiple times a day to keep up.

What? Well, at least you do. I appreciate it. I appreciate it. Lauren Ruddock, thanks for becoming a member. Thank you. Jean-Pierre Bordeaux says, I get all the Civil War talk, but I sometimes feel like this will end up more like the Revolution of 1848. If you have read up on that.

I haven't, but I will. Same here. I don't know. Magic Man says, China's PLA are used for propaganda and not for war. PLA last war was in 1979 against Vietnam and China lost. Ooh, really? Wow. Well, it is 10, which means it is time for us to go to bed.

Pointless for civilian population who don't enter war zones. Also, military not protected from double jeopardy. E.g., you can be found innocent in civilian court and still get busted by the military.
