Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the show, ladies and gentlemen. I am Tim Poole, it's TimCast IRL Podcast. I'm hanging out with some of my friends tonight, and boy, do we got some news. Some news. We got some good news. What's up, everybody? Real news, not fake news. How you doing? Thanks for coming by. It's Adam Krigler. How you doing? Thank you. Hey. We're also hanging out with the ever-present...
Starting point is 00:00:18 Ever-present voice from the side, producer Lydia. Hey, guys. No longer disembodied. That's right, no longer invisible. That'sied that's right no longer disembodied so what's going on why don't you tell us what's gonna happen what's happening tim youtube's broken again oh no this again of course we're having a crazy crazy crazy story that's what's happening right now so so first of all i'm just i'm looking over at the youtube studio and it's been busted and the views are going down and it's funny because this our lead segment is youtube no it's
Starting point is 00:00:45 it's it's suppression suppression of content yeah it almost feels like a man that support for trump is actually very high and the media is either wrong or manipulating or lying i say feels like i'm not saying i know anything for sure yeah but there was a video that was put up about you oh yeah my good friend mr adam kriegler that's right many of you uh viewers may have seen it adam it was a segment from the show where adam was talking about like now deciding to vote for trump yep 2.4 million views on facebook on one from the hodge twins alone one clip and yeah gone yeah they deleted it i don't know who deleted it or why. I think it would be weird if the Hodge twins would have deleted it. I don't think they did. I don't think so either because apparently other people
Starting point is 00:01:29 reposted it. It's also gone from their pages too. Could it be that you've got a long-haired, hippie, vegan dude who's like, I'm voting for Trump and then they're like, nuke it! Get rid of it! You know what we should do? I should post it. I should put it out there. Because it's me.
Starting point is 00:01:45 What are they going to tell me? Copyrighted for... Well, no, it's actually you. No, it's a threat. I think I know. I'm what they're afraid of, I'm sure. I think I know what it is. Project Veritas just released footage from Facebook content moderators who straight up
Starting point is 00:01:58 said, we will delete you. Yep, that's right. That's true. It is. And you know, they probably don't delete things like the Hodge twins themselves or was it Terrence Williams? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:08 Because they're high profile enough to where people would freak out. Right. But they get rid of the one video they posted of you and nobody realizes. Mm-hmm. Yeah, they don't want it, man. Yep, they're afraid. So check it out. We got a bunch of stuff to talk about.
Starting point is 00:02:20 We're going to talk about this. We're going to talk about Candace Owens puts out a video about George Floyd. 92 million views. 92 million. Wow. Think about what happens if those 92 million people vote. Now, of course, not everybody who watched it is in America. Or agrees with it.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Or agrees with it. Not every single person even watched most of it. Good point. And some people may have watched it twice or watched it halfway through and then came back later. Who knows? But you think about how many views are appearing in a lot of these videos and how many of them are unique is the big question.
Starting point is 00:02:54 How many people will be activated for this election and are not being polled, cannot be polled, and will swing for Trump? So this is the big question we were asking. You know, it's political season, so we're getting pretty political. But Tucker Carlson broke cable news ratings history with the latest posts from Adweek. History. History. Averaging like 4.33 million viewers per show, which is the highest in cable TV news ratings history.
Starting point is 00:03:21 That's crazy. Now you know why they're trying to destroy his show and take out his advertisers. Yep. Think about how stupid you have to be to be an advertiser. Like, we want to figure out where we can get a good audience. And they're like,
Starting point is 00:03:31 well, here's a guy who has the highest ratings in cable news history, but these seven anime avatar furry people on Twitter told me he was a Nazi, so I'm going to pull all my ads. And there you go. That's it. The MyPillow guy's making a killing.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Right. That guy's like yeah dude some of those pillows i have one they're pretty good actually i have two i don't know i don't yeah he's a big advertiser for tiger they're they're they're they're expensive i guess they're worth it man i i do like it because it's like it's like it's i don't know it's like packing peanuts and yeah it's like really soft fluffy stuff it's not down yeah do either of you have one of the my pillows we're talking about it it. Yes, absolutely. Yeah ones for my knees Okay, I think I think you'll need one because it was out at Walmart and I saw it I laughed
Starting point is 00:04:12 Okay, it's got that. He's like the guy. It's like the my pillow guy guy. He's the guy He's the guy I was like I was like I do need a pillow. Yeah, and I was like, you know, I I'm gonna try it out Yeah, I got one so great. It's yeah, it's perfect. It's hard to find a good pillow, though. It's true. Yeah. It's true. They're washable and dryable. I use regular pillows for support, and this one is the main go-to thing. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:04:31 So look at this. Anyway, enough promoting the MyPillow guy for whatever reason. For free. By the way, YouTube, they have not paid us. That's right. Totally for free. I guess I can only speak for myself. Adam's not in on this.
Starting point is 00:04:41 Hey, man. I'm not in on the take. What's the deal? I want to get out of this MyPillow money. What's going on, man? Who's getting paid by the MyPillow guy? That's a great brand. Tucker Carlson is. So when they came for Tucker,
Starting point is 00:04:54 he switched. So a lot of his normal ad spots are just they promote Fox shows and they promote Fox Nation. But it's interesting to see at a time when cable is collapsing that Tucker Carlson would do so well and break records. That's kind of crazy, man. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:05:10 I don't agree. I think it's exactly what I expected because he's saying what a lot of people are thinking. Yeah, but like they could watch online. Okay. He's breaking TV ratings history. But I think it is. I think it's still fair to say that cable tv news ratings are going down but a larger portion of viewers are watching
Starting point is 00:05:31 him so it's like let's say you got 100 people and then over the past year you lose 10 of them but of those remaining 90 a larger group is now watching tucker carlson that's why i'm like is all this negative trump stuff just wrong? You know, just straight up wrong. And it's 2016 all over again. Trump's losing. It's impossible. So here's what we got. We got a bunch of stories for you, actually.
Starting point is 00:05:52 So we got Politico straight up saying the polls are wrong, baby. And Trump knows it. And they're still wrong. And he's going after it. Like, they're basically saying what the Democrats can't figure out is that Trump is, you can watch what he's doing and who he's targeting and they scoff like those people will never go out and support you. And then they do. And then Trump wins. Yep. So maybe all the data they have is make sense in a traditional setting, but Trump has just totally flipped the board and it's like a different game altogether now.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Yeah. And they're scrambling. Clearly they're scrambling, but we've got a bunch of other stories too. There's one we absolutely have to talk about. Apparently, if you go out and protest and say the words, no lockdown, COVID just sprays everywhere. Everyone's coughing and gagging. But if you go out and protest and say, instead, Black Lives Matter, all of a sudden the virus dissipates and everyone's cheering and laughing we have a story i kid you not i can't he told me this earlier and i i was on the floor i was crying in tears how funny that is it's just there is that people actually believe this there's a story that says they said protesting for black lives matter has slowed the spread of covid magic it's magic it's just so funny it's amazing it's what they believe yeah yeah this well i've got science behind me the best i believe the science the argument is
Starting point is 00:07:14 that by going out and protesting more people ended up staying home than normal how does how does that make sense it doesn't so let me let me math. Okay, normally everyone's locked down in their houses. They can't go out. There's no restaurants anywhere. You tell tens of thousands of people to go out into the streets, and now there's less people at home? There's more people at home? Like, wait, wait. I'm confused.
Starting point is 00:07:34 More people at home and less COVID contracting because of reasons. Reasons. I'm sorry, man. I don't know if it's the Illuminati or the aliens or... No, no. You know what? You called this like a month ago You're like you know what I think this conspiracy this is what it is ready You ready for this the Democrats want Trump to win I mean I'm like really Trying hard to figure out what their plan is like someone on Facebook today
Starting point is 00:08:03 Was like well what is Trump's like what is he going to run on what their plan is. Like someone on Facebook today was like, well, what is what is Trump's like? What is he going to run on? You know, what is his platform? And I was like, I can talk about this. Like, let's talk about it, you know. And then, of course, there's some Trump haters that came in just dropping some hate. And I'm like, OK, yeah, but what is Biden going to run on? What's his platform? Listen, here's going to be? Listen here, fat. Look fat. Is that what he said? Look fat. Look fat. I see why your wife left you. You know, the thing, she say. Dog face, pony soldier. Yeah, we'll hear it when he actually is able to say it.
Starting point is 00:08:34 No malarkey. No malarkey. We'll take you outside. Like Joe. That's right. You've been sleeping in your basement. Oh, man. But there's another conspiracy right now.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Oh, yeah. There's another one. Oh, yeah. That's right. We were talking about this. Joe Biden has been faking dementia the whole time to lull Trump supporters into a false sense of security where they laugh and talk about how dumb Biden is, how he could never win.
Starting point is 00:08:53 And then after the DNC, all of a sudden, Joe pops a little bit of uppers. And all of a sudden, he's like, yo, listen up here. I'm Joe Biden. I got a big policy coming up for the next 20 years. And you're like, whoa, Joe, talking a million miles an hour. Joe the auctioneer. Yeah, but it's going to backfire on him because like halfway through his rent he's gonna be like it's like have an aneurysm you know i you know i don't but you know i don't believe that it's
Starting point is 00:09:13 because joe's eye popped on it did during the bait yeah yeah oh wait oh that's right yeah it's like it's just like and all blood was everywhere in his eye and probably because he took a little bit of uppers maybe he did i don't know that's because he's old and his veins pop also that could be it that's true no but i i do think come on man like he may be slipping but they can they can give him some some pills you know what i mean yeah yeah and then he'll be wired he's gonna be up there talking a million miles an hour he's not gonna make any you're gonna be like wow no i'm yeah man you know there are some particularly potent uppers out there i don particularly legal, but come on. They want to win.
Starting point is 00:09:46 How do you know so much about it? What do you mean? Because I've watched TV shows. I'm just messing. I'm just messing with you. All right, all right. So let's do this. For those that are just tuning in, you can smash the like button.
Starting point is 00:10:00 I was waiting for my camera. Sorry, guys. I was like, wait, what are we waiting for? I'm like, Lydia, come on. Hit me with the camera. Smash the like button. We're a well-oiled machine. Oh, waiting for my camera. Sorry, guys. I was like, wait, what are we waiting for? I'm like, Lydia, come on. Hit me with the camera. Smash the like button. Well-oiled machine. Yes, smash it. Smash the like button. Don't forget, you can
Starting point is 00:10:11 also smash the subscribe button, the like button, the notification bell. And you can follow us all on our appropriate handles. We are going to have a website set up sometime soon, hopefully. We got a big project in the works. Big project. It's taking longer than I wanted it to because it's probably now going to be like a month and a half
Starting point is 00:10:27 from what we originally thought we were going to have. It's just rapid expansion. Notice we said that we're getting out of New Jersey, so there's going to be big moves. Big, big moves. Big moves. Big moves are happening. Let's talk about this video with none other than Mr. Adam Kripa. Than yours truly.
Starting point is 00:10:44 That would be me. This thing's gone viral. it's being shared thousands of times well so this i'm shocked this is a video of you during our rant from the last week so it was last monday yeah last monday last last monday you started talking about how you have decided you're going to vote for trump yeah and you got some flack for it i guess oh. Oh, I'm still getting flack for it. Today, people were like, I don't know you anymore. And I was like, well, you know, you want to talk about it? And they're like,
Starting point is 00:11:12 block. I'm like, oh, so you don't want to even discuss it. Sure. Were you ever really friends? Yes, actually. That's the sad part. Or rather, I thought. So it's like, whatever. I don't think you are. I don't think you ever really were. It seems like it. Seems so.
Starting point is 00:11:27 You know, it's like if you don't. I appreciate everyone's opinion. I wanted to hear this person's opinion. I'm not going to like say who they were, but regardless, I was just speaking my mind on when we were both ranting. We both kind of went on a rant that day. And my rant was basically saying I'm sick of it I'm I've been immersed in in the news and the counter news and what's really going on hearing the actual speeches by our current president and how the mainstream media actually portrays what these what he's
Starting point is 00:11:57 saying and I'm like okay that's not true and I'm doing all my own research I we spoke about China a little bit about how they're trying to take over and corporations are losing a lot of money by him trying to bring manufacturing back. We talked about how a lot of people who said they flipped to join the Trump train as soon as they actually saw him give a speech and realized the media had been lying to them about everything. And so that was their moment. And then you mentioned that similarly. You started actually listening to what he was saying and you're like, that's not what the media said. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:12:25 That's great. Nearly every speech of his is the same. And I'm like, how can that be? How are they skewing it so far from what he's saying that it's just them making up their own narrative that they want to push onto people. And it's like, I don't like anyone pushing anything on me.
Starting point is 00:12:42 I like thinking for myself. And that's literally what I said. And now it anything on me. I like thinking for myself. And that's literally what I said. And now it was blasted. Liberal, you know, thinks for himself, thinks logically. Wait, they misgendered you. That's the best, funniest part. They did. They said.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Liberal says they're voting for Trump. And I was like, he's clearly a man. He's a dude, obviously. Maybe it was the long hair that was throwing him off. And the beard. Hey, hey. No, no, because there was that lingerie ad was it for lingerie i don't remember what it was for but like it was just like what looked like a
Starting point is 00:13:11 beardy man with lingerie on it was something about women being women i was like oh there there are there are trans people with beards so i think that's that's fair point i think i think they're being polite and not trying to misgender you because they didn't know. Well, I'm a man, and you can call me as such. I'm offended that you misgendered me. There you go. So it goes two ways, people. They said there because they were trying to be polite, and it said liberal, so they didn't know. I don't even know if I was considered a liberal. I just didn't pay attention. No, you were.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Because I was in my own little bubble, a world that I lived in. Who was the last president you voted for? In 2008, I voted for Obama, yes. Bingo. You see? It was the first time I was able to vote. So you weren't like a hardcore far leftist or Democrat waving the party flag or whatever. But I think, I don't know who coined this.
Starting point is 00:13:59 I think it may have been Breitbart, default liberal. Like a regular person who just lives in a city, doesn't know, doesn't follow too much. Right. And then goes and votes for a Democrat. And so you're the typical. Yeah. It's called passive liberal, I think, according to the Hidden Tribes thing. It's like people who just live in cities and are just like, yep.
Starting point is 00:14:16 And they press the D button. And if those people that were like me, that were living in their own little bubble, saw that video of me being a liberal like it said liberals using logic thinking for himself and you know doing his own research that's basically what it said and that's what we were talking about they deleted the video they deleted the video because it's been deleted all over the place now check it out so i i shared this two plus million views wow and i thought my rant would go viral i told you i'm slowly taking over the show so i did so i i had a rant where i was like you got to stand up
Starting point is 00:14:50 for yourself and stop you know and blah blah yeah and then afterwards solid rant i actually got hit up by a ton of high profile people being like yo yo yo we're sharing this can we can we talk and people wanting to come on their shows and stuff like that and i was like i was like you know you know after the show, I had a feeling, because people were saying things like, yo, put that clip up, put that clip up. Then all of a sudden, it was your clip. I know.
Starting point is 00:15:12 Gets 2.4 million views on Facebook. I was surprised myself. The segment we did with both of the rants ended up getting like half a mil on YouTube. And they snipped this one bit where you're like, here's why I'm doing it, here's what I think. Started to go crazy viral, so I shared it. And morning i got a notification on it and i looked i looked the comments and people were like that's really cool that you know your buddy's thinking for
Starting point is 00:15:32 himself there are people saying things like you know adam's kind of like a good everyman representation they're like it's interesting to see his perspective and then asked after this afternoon uh at some point i went and it's gone. I don't know. It's just gone. And so actually I went to the Hodge twins' page gone.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Yep. So actually I sent a message and I was like did you guys delete this? It's gone. And I haven't heard back or anything.
Starting point is 00:15:56 And there were other pages that posted too also gone. Yep. And then I look at what Project Veritas said. Exactly. So if you guys aren't familiar
Starting point is 00:16:02 James O'Keefe Project Veritas did this expose where an actual content moderator, I believe he was, for Facebook, on the record
Starting point is 00:16:09 with hidden camera footage showing all these people saying things like, if it's a video of a Trump supporter, I'll delete it for terrorism. Yep. So I wonder what happened.
Starting point is 00:16:17 You post the Hodge twins. You post Diamond and Silk. You post Candace Owens. And the moderators are probably like, we know who they are. Yeah. Like, there's nothing
Starting point is 00:16:24 we can do. But all of a sudden, they see a video of this regular old, you know, vegan, urban hippie kind of dude. Vegan hippie dippy looking dude. Being like, yo, we got to do it, man. Who is this? And they're like, uh-oh. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:16:36 We can't have people like that thinking for themselves. Yep. That's dangerous. We got to maintain control. That's right. Nuked it. Uh-huh. Not if I can help it.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Well, that's one of the one of the reasons why i wanted to lead with this actual segment again yeah because now we'll post it yeah we'll post exactly about how they deleted it you should keep doing it and we'll keep talking about it yeah so this this this all ties into this this bigger idea that because we were talking about this and i'm like man 2.4 million people sharing this video trump supporters conservatives right now are like they're at war. I mean, figuratively, you know, they're like active. They are they are paying attention. And then the story breaks from Adweek. Check this out. Well, I guess we can't pull it up
Starting point is 00:17:16 because let me see if I can try and refresh it. Oh, no. Give us such. Yeah. Anyway, you know what? Don't worry about it. The headlines there fox news q2 2020 ratings tucker carlson averaged 4.33 million viewers at 8 p.m the largest audience in cable news history wait when they say it says averaged so that's over the course of the show averaged so no no like the entirety of his show it could have been a little bit higher a little bit lower but every episode he's averaging this is this cable news history. That's huge. Tucker Carlson is, I've said it before, he's one of the best, if not the best in cable TV news. You don't have to agree with all of his opinions because he certainly has conservative opinions,
Starting point is 00:17:55 but he gets very often his facts straight. He's talented. He's talented. He gets things wrong. But the bigger issue is that he's very much know he's very much pro-trump he's very critical of republicans he's been going after these do-nothing republicans quite a bit yep but the people who are listening to him are not people who are going to support biden so who's coming to tucker carlson to watch in historic numbers people who are sick of what's going on in our country right now which brings me to two more points. This one first. This is Candace Owens right here.
Starting point is 00:18:26 We can see here where she said she didn't support George Floyd as 92.8 million. 92.8 mil. Wow. And this is a big news story. That's a lot. So for all we know,
Starting point is 00:18:39 that's a lot of views. That's like most voters. So it's a lot of Democrats, a lot of Republicans. But the point is, the message is out there. It's prominent. And this George Floyd thing, I'm not saying that has anything to do with Trump.
Starting point is 00:18:50 It's just showing that there's substantial influence from conservative personalities from the right. But this Politico article, and then we got this thread. It's really interesting. Look, I've been saying a lot that I think Trump's actually on it. I'm not saying he's going to lose. I'm saying he's on track right now with no changes. He will lose the way things are going.
Starting point is 00:19:11 I don't know. I'm shaking my head right now. You can't see me, but I don't agree. Look at this right here. What does that say? Sharp decline in GOP satisfaction with the way things are going in the country. Yeah. The Democrats and independents.
Starting point is 00:19:24 So Democrats have been going slightly down for a while but they barely ever cared they've always hated it since 2017 republicans have been kind of happy with even more than half saying they're satisfied but what does that statement even mean not happy with the thing or sorry satisfaction with the way things are going in the country it's like who's happy with what's going on in the country or even the planet right now? Of course. Nobody. I'm not. This is part of why I'm saying if Trump does nothing,
Starting point is 00:19:49 the track he is on right now is loss. I'm not saying he will lose. I'm saying he needs to change things. Okay. Which brings me to the point actually being brought up by this article and by another thread. One of the big arguments being that Trump is waiting till after the DNC
Starting point is 00:20:03 to pull the trigger on all their big campaign moves. It makes sense. He's already got enthusiasm. There's a major enthusiasm gap. People are going out and voting. And before he comes out and tries to do all the major campaign advertisements, wait for the Democrats to announce their VP, to announce their policy positions and adopt their policy positions. Then Trump can come out and start, you know, dropping the hammer on a bunch of different issues.
Starting point is 00:20:28 But as of right now, things look bad. You got bad polls. You got all this negative press. You've got secret insiders saying Trump is talking about quitting. That I don't believe. But this is really interesting right here. Politico said just a couple of weeks ago that they have not fixed the polls from 2016.
Starting point is 00:20:47 Boom. The polls were wrong in a lot of ways. The national votes were on point, but the national vote isn't relevant. What Trump is going for is the electoral college. Yep. And he won the electoral college by a huge 25%. Yeah, but it's a huge margin. Yeah. So how is it that he lost the popular vote, but he won such huge numbers? And they make a really good point in this article, but there's another thread right here from Carlos Azueta that kind of breaks it down. And the point is, these polls, state polls, were not getting white, non-college educated voters.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Yep. They're polling the wrong people. Well, they kind of, but it's that they can't get those people right the new york times talked about how they're trying and they can't so they're trying to adjust their margin of error and make some estimations but they can't do it no they can't get in touch with these people especially if they're biased listen man when i during during trump's campaign in 20 uh 2015 and 16 i went to like 30 plus rallies and i was i remember the one of the most prominent ones,
Starting point is 00:21:46 like in terms of my conversations and understanding, I was in Florida. I think it was Fort Lauderdale. I would say nine out of 10 people I talked to said they don't vote. And I was like, are you a Republican? No. Democrat?
Starting point is 00:21:59 I don't know. And I tell you this, man. I was talking to a bunch of people and they would say like, I'll be like, so have you always voted Republican? I'm like, I actually don't vote. I'm like, but tell you this, man, I'm talking to a bunch of people and they would say, like, I'll be like, so, you know, have you always voted Republican? Like, I actually don't vote. Yeah. I'm like, but here you are in a Trump round. Like, oh, yeah, Trump's great. And so you had people who didn't even know what they were politically. These are people who probably never voted. And one of the things that happened in 2016 is areas that didn't vote before
Starting point is 00:22:19 that were considered like gray because they didn't vote all of a sudden turned red. And so we have this thread here. Carl Tosueda basically talks about a lot of these really interesting things, pointing out that Trump is going for the Electoral College, and he's turning states that aren't battleground states into battleground states by targeting large groups of people who are disenfranchised. Well, you know who I voted in 2016? In 2016?
Starting point is 00:22:43 You voted in 2016? I didn't. Oh, yeah. That's my point. Oh, right. Right. So, and now I know who I'm voting for, you know, and it's like... Exactly.
Starting point is 00:22:53 You know, I have become activated and more just active. Like, I just am paying attention now and I'm like, okay, now I understand the political realm to an extent. I feel like I still don't know enough. You know, I don't think I ever will know enough because there's just so much to know. You know, Democrats want Trump to win. I was making a joke about it earlier, but I kind of was serious, though, a little bit. So so make it easy for the next 2024. Let me tell you guys a story.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Oh, goodness. So I'm sitting here in my apartment, right? In my house. And I'm like, you know, we got to do a new show. So I call up my boy and I say to my boy, I'm like, hey, Adam, why don't you come out here and do this show with me, huh? And so I'm like, yo. I didn't know who it was at first. I was like, I'm like, who is this?
Starting point is 00:23:41 I'm like, it says Tim here, but who is this? Why do you have a really awful fake new jersey sounding do you live in jersey now no no no i'm good i'm good haven't you haven't you haven't you seen the south park episode where jersey takes over the whole country oh no lydia and i feel the same way about that they're like no they're like south park is becoming south jersey uh south carolina south dakota is now south jersey uh anyway so i call up adam and i'm like hey do you want to do a podcast with me because you know i do this i do my show every morning it's like uh an hour and a half or whatever i want to do a nightly two-hour podcast need somebody who's like but no politics no for real no politics adam i don't want to do any
Starting point is 00:24:27 politics we're the only rule no democrat no republican conversation not allowed to say those words right and i was like yes because i don't know anything about politics well so and now here i am i'm like i'm being like shared around as like the new you know slogan for and you know bringing liberals to the right side to the trump train so so so the general idea well hold on this is important the general idea was like so i do politics all day and i was like there's so much more that we could talk about in cultural issues and stuff and movies if and we can do a two hour long podcast we can talk about the universe and aliens and just like fun important stuff so we did movie reviews
Starting point is 00:25:03 we did a couple when the apocalypse happened right yeah no no it's not the apocalypse come on i'm just being i'm just joking here's what this is important because we were talking a couple days ago when they came for dungeon and dragon dungeons and dragons and magic the gathering art got banned and cards got banned then they started saying certain like fantasy races were racist or whatever stupidest thing and and you were talking about how like you normally like you didn't know a whole lot about what was going on right and i was like it wouldn't have mattered if i asked you to come out or not because you'd be sitting at your house with your friends playing magic look at your phones confused why
Starting point is 00:25:37 they banned a bunch of cards for being racist probably not even that probably not even that because i didn't i didn't go out and look i wasn't paying attention i didn't i didn't care to even find out but somebody would have been like yo dnd is like the rules are changing and now my play group wouldn't have cared if they just you don't think they would have noticed any of the any of the changes or the sure maybe maybe you wouldn't have seen you wouldn't have seen the ban lists for cards that like what is this and like the statements issued and the card art being removed well i, I, you know, I didn't use any of those cards anyway. Sure. I checked the ban list sometimes when I, when I used to play, but I don't, I, I'm sure there
Starting point is 00:26:12 was going to come a point where I was like, I'm going to be forced into this. I get what you're saying. Yeah. Everyone's being forced into it. And if it wasn't this, it would have been the riots. That's the point I'm making. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Well, COVID everyone's home. No one has jobs. You know, now, now people are even scared to go out because of the riots. Like, people are like, oh, how dare these people pull guns on them? It's like, yeah, but they're beating, they're killing people. They're killing each other. Like, how would you not be afraid of these people surrounding your car, beating on your car? Shooting into it in Provo.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Yes, shooting into the car. And you think they're not going to slam on the gas? What? Check this out. Ridiculous. There's murmurs. People are getting worried because apparently Provo is like very heavy Mormon. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:54 And in Provo, an SUV was driving down the road. These protests, rioters, extremists, whatever you want to call them, were randomly running about. So this vehicle doesn't know there's a protest or whatever you want to call them were randomly running about so this vehicle doesn't know there's a protest or whatever you want to call it a riot and it tries turning away when some dude runs up with a gun and fires literally shot the driver wow police confirm the driver got shot and then hit the gas even even slowed down trying not to run people over and rushed to the hospital the Must be the Mormon influence. So the concern is like the Mormon community is a community. And you just shot somebody.
Starting point is 00:27:31 And if that turned out to be, you know, there's going to be a bunch of people who are going to like, they're going to start gearing up and locking down. Those people are ready. What have I been saying for over a month now? When they started and i was like man they're gonna they're gonna they're gonna hit somebody that it's gonna be the final straw and and the militias are gonna rise up so and what you just said exactly i bring this up because in your in your case where you're like the liberal who's like you know start using logic or whatever they wanted to say about you right it's that when you didn't come to the fight the fight came to you feels like like whether or
Starting point is 00:28:05 not you were going to be reading the news on magic the gathering it was creeping towards you like like an evil ooze reaching out trying to grab you yeah and then all of a sudden regular people are finding themselves confused what is this riot boom why was i shot why exactly rushed to the hospital with a bullet wound because these lunatics are out there. You know, a lot of these people are not political. And if you want to talk about people who don't vote all of a sudden voting and the polls being wrong, this is how it happens. Exactly. I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 00:28:34 These people in South Philly, or yeah, in South Philly, where they came to tear down the Christopher Columbus statue. First thing that happens, a bunch of dudes come out. They got baseball bats. They got guns. And they're pushing these far lefty guys around. I'm not happy about that, by the way. Like, I've expressed this. First thing that happens, a bunch of dudes come out. They got baseball bats. They got guns. And they're pushing these far lefty guys around. I'm not happy about that, by the way.
Starting point is 00:28:49 I've expressed this. They attacked a leftist journalist guy. Let them film. Let them do their thing. But they roughed them up because they don't care. You're in my neighborhood. You don't care. These guys are in all likelihood probably voting Democrat because Philadelphia is 82% Democrat.
Starting point is 00:29:08 So eight out of 10 of them may be voting Democrat. Maybe not. These guys now are probably, in my opinion, not political. They're just dudes who go to work, don't pay attention to this stuff. They want to go home. They want to watch a game with their buddies, have a beer at the local pub. And now they hear a bunch of crazy extremists are acting a fool and want to tear down their statue. And they're like, what?
Starting point is 00:29:25 Nah. Guess what? The city is going to remove the statue anyway. Really? Yep. They said the outbreaks of violence are too much. We're taking the statue down. Wow.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Now I can imagine these guys are like, what? Are you kidding me? And now they're looking at the news. The game's not on. They're getting angry. They're getting agitated. The fight came to them. Do they realize it's the Democrats that are going to that are taking down the statues? Yeah. Do you realize that? I'm speaking to them right now. I'm talking to you, the people who vote Democrat that are allowing these statues to be pulled down legally through their means to take them all down.
Starting point is 00:30:03 It's like that's destroying history when you just look, destroying history. You know, a lot of Jewish people, Auschwitz is still standing. You know that? Yep. You know why it's still standing? Because the Jews don't want it to be forgotten. We don't want to forget that, what happened there. But there's a big difference. Oh, is there?
Starting point is 00:30:18 There is, absolutely. You know what? You're right. You're right. But it's the beginning. It's still destroying the history of how we got to where we are. That's the point I'm making. The problem with the Confederate statues is that they were put up in, like, to praise these individuals.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Okay. Auschwitz is a symbol of the horrific, you know, acts and atrocities. That's true. So that's why I'm in favor of having a vote. If the vote passes, we take the statues down, we put them in a museum, we put up a plaque instead. But it's got to be done through the democratic process because no one has the right to come into someone else's neighborhood and destroy everything. Agreed. So I can respect their position, I can agree with their position, and I can completely disagree with their use of violence and authoritarianism to get what they want. That's the problem.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Now, come on. Taking down Christopher Columbus is a step too far. Taking down abolitionists and desecrating George Washington is insane. Agreed. Now they're going after the 4th of July. They don't even know what they're fighting for anymore. Seriously, what are you fighting for? They just want to burn it all down. That's it. They want to destroy this country. They just want to burn it all down to the ground.
Starting point is 00:31:19 And I think it's funny to bring this up because it's supposed to be a trope of the conservative commentator saying liberals hate America. Right. Yeah. But these people literally do. They just desecrated George Washington. And like I mentioned, they're coming for the 4th of July.
Starting point is 00:31:31 So let me wrap this up. And I really want to talk about the 4th of July. Yeah, me too. Because this is what's going to scare me. I agree with you. So the general idea is I think that, you know, when you look at these polls, they're not fixed. They're not tracking new voters. They're talking with likely voters and they're talking with people who aren't registered. They're trying to figure it out, but they're not seeing the everyman or as they say, the silent
Starting point is 00:31:56 majority. So perhaps all of this is shocking people to their core and they're going to go very, very angrily to that voting booth and just, bam, right there, Donald Trump. But the reason why I can't tell you definitively is because right here on the table right now, you can't see it, is an official mail-in ballot for someone who does not live in this house. And we didn't request it. I don't know. I'm pretty sure nobody did.
Starting point is 00:32:19 The person hasn't lived here in a very long time. I know who it is. And none of us got these ballots. So I think the system is completely insecure if they do it this way. I agree. Yeah, that's not confidence building. Well, let's let's let's do this. Let me see if I can pull up this. Let's talk about what I'll tell you what really scares me, man. What not being able to say I'm proud to be an American anymore. It's not about that. It feels like it. I mean, they're right now. Yeah. You did. What did you post? You post something about Trump and then someone called you a Nazi?
Starting point is 00:32:47 I straight up said, I'm proud to be an American. Right. Tweet. Yeah. That's it. Send tweet. Nazi. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:32:55 It's like, are you kidding me? Because I'm proud of where I live? Because I'm proud of my country? Because we went from having slavery to getting rid of it. Hold on. Slavery was a global institution. It still is. That's a great point, Tim.
Starting point is 00:33:09 And not only did we beat it, we're in the forefront of showing how to change things. And we weren't the first. Okay. And we're not going to be the last. No, no. I think we're actually way behind most countries. Really? I thought we were second to England.
Starting point is 00:33:22 The UK abolished it first at some point we we abolished it through a war you know that we won actually the union won we're the union we're the good guys yep the bad guys lost yes and in other parts of the world it still exists right that's true but this but here's here's the point i'm bringing up yes you can't even say you're proud to be american right now los angeles mayor eric Garcetti bans 4th of July fireworks displays, prohibits gatherings with people you don't live with, puts hard pause on movie theater reopenings. Now, there was a question about,
Starting point is 00:33:54 is he banning fireworks because of the potential for fires? That's what I thought. But it sounds like what they're saying is, don't go out and gather with people because of COVID. This period will be our second big test. It is now time for a pause. We simply cannot risk people's lives. It's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:34:09 He then announced, along with beach closures, 4th of July firework displays would be prohibited in the hope of keeping Angelenos from gathering in groups. Boom. They don't care at all. What did Muriel Bowser say in D.C.? Stay home on the 4th of July. Yep.
Starting point is 00:34:22 What did she say a couple weeks or a week or so before? March. She didn't say anything. She or a week or so before? March. She didn't say anything. She was literally marching with the protesters. Yep, exactly. So I'll tell you what scares me. It's not that people aren't allowed to be proud to be American anymore. That freaks me out for sure.
Starting point is 00:34:35 You know what really scares me? When you get a regular American who doesn't read the news, doesn't care to read the news, and all they're thinking is, man, this 4th is going to be awesome. Man, I haven't seen Jimmy. How long has it been, Jimmy? I haven't seen you in three years, man.
Starting point is 00:34:49 And now Jimmy is coming down and Rick and Dale and Harry. And we're going to get together, crack some beers, cook up some brats by the lake, go fishing. The kids are going to be there. We're going to have the dogs. Man, it's going to be awesome. Then you've got younger people who are like, oh, cool, we're going to go out and we're going to have fireworks. You've got older people who are like, yeah, I remember back when we used to have the dogs gonna be it's man it's gonna be awesome then you got younger people who are like you know oh cool we're gonna go out we're gonna have fireworks you got older people who are like yeah i remember back when we used to have the firework celebration down by the down by the river and now all gone yep it's not just about being american it's about people
Starting point is 00:35:15 wanting to be with the ones they love and a special time of year where they get to it's it's summer yep they get to have burgers with the people they care about. They get to laugh, love, live. And now the mayor and across this country are saying, you cannot have a good time with those you care about, but we will absolutely march in your faces. As your businesses rot to the ground
Starting point is 00:35:38 and are burned by rioters, we will smile. We'll shoot at you. Yep. Seriously. The protesters are shooting at people. The people are just going about their day. It's like, oh, are you driving this way? Boom. We're shooting you now. And then what's the response from the government? How dare that
Starting point is 00:35:53 person drive through? The peaceful protesters. Yes, the media. The peaceful protesters. My favorite thing was the BBC. They said 27 officers injured in mostly peaceful protests. Right. Wow. Yeah, that's insane. This is what this is.
Starting point is 00:36:07 So this freaks me out. The media. What will the reaction be of regular Americans who are sick and tired of being stepped on with with with jackboots? Yep. These these governors who are enacting unconstitutional orders, the police who violate the Constitution with a smile on their face. Not all of them. Mostly in bigger cities. Smaller town cops seem to be doing all right. Yep.
Starting point is 00:36:28 But the bigger cities, they don't care. They're just like, governor said you're not allowed to have a Constitution, so you're under arrest. No Constitution for you. Don't care. And I'm defensive of the police right now as it pertains to defund the police. But look, man, I think one of the reasons they're losing a lot of support is because when the governor said, hey, you know, the constitution is over,
Starting point is 00:36:50 the cops were just like, you got it. Happy to accept that paycheck. So yes, right now, check this out. We've got LA saying we cannot risk people's lives. We get stories like this. Three in four say attending 4th of July celebrations is risky, says Pohl. My goodness. This makes me question what we're hearing in the media.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Here's my question. Have Americans given up? Have they lost their sense of nation? Do they no longer care about what America is, what it stands for? There's definitely them out there. There's definitely Americans that have no idea what America actually is. They're spoiled, entitled, and they're clueless and ignorant. Well, so this is the big question.
Starting point is 00:37:37 Is the majority of this country still proud to be an American, even only a little bit? I think that is a true statement. This is the reason I've been saying the things I've been saying over the past few months because I believe that. I believe the majority are proud to be Americans. There's plenty of people who have just recently come to America over the past 20 years that are like, you have no idea what I went through to even be here, to have the little job that I have, that I get minimum wage.
Starting point is 00:38:11 That job is amazing. And I love my rights that I have here that I had none of when I where I came from. And it's like, yes, it all it shows to me is these people are ignorant. They have no idea what they really have. So why? why are all these governors and mayors banning the fourth of july this right here money this is why yeah money because they're getting paid by something somewhere somebody's agenda to to undermine america america is a big thorn in the new world order the whole like trying to you know I don't know you know redo the whole
Starting point is 00:38:47 globe essentially under you know a regime you know China's probably wants us to kill ourselves and it's kind of happening yeah yeah sure that was a leap but it's like but you ask me what is the reason they're doing it and it's like why would they why would they? Why would they want to undermine America? Probably because they're getting paid by somebody who doesn't want America to exist anymore. I think it's simpler than that.
Starting point is 00:39:19 I think if they weren't pathetic, spineless little weasels, they'd ban Black Lives Matter protests too. They won't. The only reason they're not doing it is because these people went around smashing windows and burning buildings to the ground. And so it's like I said, what we're seeing is morality government. It's morality policing. When they say it's easier just to give the protesters what they want and strip the rights of other people than to deal with the mob. And that's what it is. So they're sitting there. They're looking at a mob throwing Molotov cocktails and people like us who are just in our home complaining.
Starting point is 00:39:44 And they're like, well, these guys obey the law, so I don't got to worry about them. These guys are burning everything down. How can we placate them? Oh, just give them what they want. You got it. And so they do. And that's what's scaring me because you're going to see the breaking point for regular Americans when they're like, no, I can't do this.
Starting point is 00:40:00 That's what I've been saying. There's going to be a point where a lot of Americans are like, you know what fine i'm going to go open my gun locker and now i'm going to go i'm going to go out and actually exercise my rights let them try to come on my property fourth of july everyone's talking about this seattle couple memes are flying off the st louis oh is yes excuse me st louis they're flying off the shelves all the memes they're amazing memes by the way saving private amazing private property. Amazing memes. Seriously, the meme factories are running. They never quit. COVID
Starting point is 00:40:29 didn't stop them. That's right. They were coming onto private property. They walked out to protect themselves. If they didn't have those guns and they were standing there, like, get out of here. They would have been attacked. They were on private property. It's like they had every right to stand there. And I'm like, you get on Facebook and I'm like, oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Like, what are what is this crap I'm seeing? Like, everyone's just ridiculing. It's like a cesspool of anti-Trump, anti-anything that goes against the narrative. And that's why your video got deleted. Project Veritas. It's like Facebook is clearly biased, deleting everything that they can get their hands on that is pro-Trump or not even pro-Trump, anti what they're pushing. You know, I think it's it's scary. You know, it's you know, I jokingly say the Democrats want Trump to win, but it really does feel like it.
Starting point is 00:41:21 It feels like they don't even care about Trump. They want America to just burn. That's what it feels like. The joke I'm making is, how could you fail? Like a broken clock is right twice a day. Yep. But Democrats have been wrong literally everything they've done. The only conclusion I can come to
Starting point is 00:41:38 is that it's on purpose. Yeah. The Trump bump. Like, wow, are you really just that bad at what you do? That's impossible. You'd eventually get something right. You would think. But they don't. You're right. It's like, what is the riots accomplished?
Starting point is 00:41:50 And they supported them and then banned the 4th of July. Are you crazy? Yeah. And then the Democrats tweet that was deleted about Mount Rushmore. Like, Colin, do we have this up? I don't know. I don't think I do, actually. Oh, man. We did talk about it earlier. We did. But here up? I don't know. I don't think I do, actually. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:42:05 We did talk about it earlier. We did. But here's what I got to say. I need to issue a correction to Mr. Dan Crenshaw. Oh, yeah? Yes, a correction. See, Dan tweeted out the image of, for those unfamiliar, he's the Republican congressman from Texas.
Starting point is 00:42:18 He tweeted out an image of the tweet and said they were calling Mount Rushmore racist. That is not true. They were calling the rally he was having racist at mount rushmore and then on july 4th the rally was the fourth of july celebrations right the point is they were saying celebrating the fourth of july is a it glorifies white supremacy and he was doing it at mount rushmore so they weren't necessarily i get it better they're disparaging Mount Rushmore. No, it's substantially worse. Yeah, that's awful.
Starting point is 00:42:48 It's one thing if you're like. It is. It's one thing if they said, we respect your right to celebrate independence, but doing it here is offensive to some communities. I'd still cringe at that. Instead, they were straight up like, this rally Trump is having, which is a 4th of July celebration, glorifies white supremacy. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:43:04 They think it. They believe it. That's what they think. They really do. The mask slipped. Yes, glorifies white supremacy. Whoa. They think it. They believe it. That's what they think. They really do. The mask slipped. Yes, it did. There it is. Beneath the thin veneer of a smiling pro-America social justice activist
Starting point is 00:43:15 is a lunatic who wants to burn this country to the ground. Yep. Not every single Democrat, obviously. Of course. But there are enough of them within this group and you get there's no leadership so nancy pelosi what does she do she she gets on bent knee literally and and and swears fealty to the fringe ideology yep and then she can't even stand up and someone has wearing a kente cloth which is which which is the which was worn by slave traders yep yeah very powerful
Starting point is 00:43:42 slave trading empire these people are lunatics. Yep. It's like they're brazenly showing it off, too. Like, they don't care. The Democratic Party was the racist party. How could they have been so wrong? Who's that former Klansman who was kissing Hillary Clinton, that famous photo?
Starting point is 00:43:58 Oh, Robert Byrd? Is that his name? Yeah, that's his name, I think. He's always been a Democrat, right? I believe. That's the funniest thing. Let me double check that. He's a Klan member.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Yeah. And then apparently he has like a moment of like revelation and he's still a Democrat. And so people show this photo of the guy like with Hillary and they're laughing and smiling together. And it's like, what makes you think this guy changed when he's still with the same party to the same thing? And I want to make sure I make it clear. The complaints the activists have about police about politicians are all in democratically controlled areas they're not
Starting point is 00:44:30 complaining about republicans you're absolutely right has he always been a democrat i believe so yeah and not only that like the republicans are trying to to pass police reform laws they blocked it and who blocked it the The Democrats. The Democrats. And they called Tim... They insulted Tim Scott along with it. Tim Scott, yeah. Wow, man. I was...
Starting point is 00:44:50 They called him a token. Yeah. They called it a token bill or whatever. And he got really offended by that. It's insane. And man, dude, I can't stand these people, man. Rand Paul, he put a bill forward to stop no-knock raids. And it's like, good. That's what... We need to stop that no knock raids and it's like good that's what we
Starting point is 00:45:06 need to stop that yeah you know it's like what is going on like how is this how are you not why are you blocking these things i was in i was in portland they're trying to keep it around there i was in portland and there was like a big rally of mostly like right-wing groups you had patriot prairie and proud boys it's a very typical thing. And one of the proud boys was a black man. Okay. So you know what Antifa started doing? What? They started yelling as many racial slurs as they could. Wow. And I was standing there and this dude went off. Good.
Starting point is 00:45:34 And he's like, he's wearing a vest and he's like, I think he was a veteran and he's like very much in shape. The police separated the groups. And so all the proud boys and Patriot Prayer on one side, all Antifa on the other side and the Antifa people start yelling hardcore racial slurs wow i was like i couldn't believe what i was hearing man i could believe it and so this dude one of the proud boys he gets super angry and he goes to cross the street where the police have separated everybody and the other
Starting point is 00:45:59 guys grabbed him and i'm looking at these it's funny these proud boys and they're holding him back and they're they're holding him back and they're, they're looking him in the eyes and saying, you are my brother, man. Like we are here with you. You are one of us. Don't listen to what these people are saying. They're trying to make you angry. So you go over there and fight them. But, and they were saying things like, we're here with you. We're all equal. You're with, you're one of us ignore what they're saying. And I'm sitting here like none of these people on the right, we're saying racial slurs, not a single, not a single one. All right. And all these Antifa people, man, it was crazy what they were saying.
Starting point is 00:46:29 Because they use emotions. That's their fuel. Because they're racists. Absolutely. Absolutely. Emotional and racist. You can look this up. There was an ICE protest in, I believe it was Portland.
Starting point is 00:46:41 And there was a black cop. And they are yelling crazy racial slurs. They are saying like you name the racial slur. They are saying it. It's it's you did you find it? Yeah, it's from 2018. I'm not going to repeat what they were saying. So they did say a couple of the hard slurs, but they also use terms associated with like I'm not going to say what they are referencing black people who are servants essentially okay like we're traitors right no no no like i'm not gonna say it but just just trust me there's there's like 12 probably 20 different terms and they're all just talking and saying things and they're doing a certain kind of accent yeah it's like man i have seen some stuff from
Starting point is 00:47:20 these people it's messed up now look man i've encountered my share of backwater white yokel racists like i told the story last week about being in in uh i think i was in dallas and i had an uber driver who was overtly racist right i started getting angry because he was saying he was very very stupid and then he shut up i've also i've also experienced like uh when i briefly lived in virginia some serious racism from older generations but the funny thing about these people is they know to keep their mouths shut you know what i mean like they understand what's socially acceptable and they may be bigots but they just they'll stop okay so so i can i can tell them straight up hey you know don't talk like that i'm not interested in hearing that you know you can you can speak like that you want to speak somebody else fine but don't bring it where i'm at But you look at Antifa they claim to be fighting racism then come out in the streets and scream racial slurs at people
Starting point is 00:48:09 That's look at the joke look at square that look at the video of the that we talked about this this this you know 18 year old girl getting arrested mm-hmm by you know and she's crying and hyperventilating and they're like she needs her dialysis Which is ridiculous, but they call they start yelling racial slurs and the black cop walks up it's messed up you you can you see it happens look man it's like aren't they out for black lives matter that was you see right all right yeah you see that video trump tweeted out where the guy in the in the in the golf cart you know raises his fist and yells something pretty dumb i'm not gonna repeat it and horrible and it seemed like he was trying to be ironic right but i'm not but but it was it was a moronic yeah he was like yeah yeah whatever and it was stupid it was stupid and the
Starting point is 00:48:51 media went nuts the media was like oh pearl clutching and bro you know how many videos i could find right now of leftists screaming racial slurs and they never bring it up in the news or how about joe biden his racial slurs that he's said over the years like i've seen some some stuff about what he's saying it's like that dude's racist yeah clearly clearly to be fair and not only is he racist his family had slaves literally why aren't they freaking out and tearing down his to be fair though legacy a lot a lot of a lot of the actual progressives call them out for these things okay it's the establishment that won't do it yeah so you you know you'll you'll find them actually saying things like why would i support biden biden's racist right which brings me to an
Starting point is 00:49:33 interesting thought i had so i was talking uh i've been i've been bouncing these ideas around a couple people uh you know i know in the political world and i was like what do you think would happen like do you think the possible, do you think the possibility is that Trump only gets 40 percent of the popular vote, but still wins because progressive Democrats don't vote for Biden and vote for a third party? Yeah. So let's say, you know, Trump barely gets enough electoral votes to win nearly. And his in the popular vote, 40%. So everyone's outraged. But Joe Biden only gets 36.
Starting point is 00:50:09 Right. And then some third party gets, you know. Joe Jorgensen. Gets, you know, 14 or whatever. Yeah, gets the remaining. Maybe not. Maybe Bernie Sanders, right? And I'm thinking this because.
Starting point is 00:50:19 He's still on the ballot, right? I think he is. No, I don't know about that. I thought he was. But on the primary ballots. Yeah, maybe. Oh, okay. But the reason i was thinking about this is that uh when not when when trump released uh issued this press release showing joe biden's enthusiasm in alaska he got 55 percent of the democratic primary vote and he's the only one running what 55 because other people were still on and so people were like i don't care if they quit i'm gonna
Starting point is 00:50:45 vote for him anyway right so all you need is 10 of of the democratic base to be like we want bernie and we're voting for bernie no matter what yeah and then biden doesn't you know trump doesn't get the majority think about the insanity that would ensue if trump got third imagine this trump gets 35 of the of the popular vote okay but biden and bernie split it evenly and come under at like 30 each and then you know then you got third party sprinkled in everywhere else people would lose their minds it would be it would be absolutely nuts i wonder what the possibility that maybe it's true that trump's base right now is only 35 i don't even believe But it's the plurality
Starting point is 00:51:25 of voters. Yeah. You know, so like, it's not so much about who gets the majority, it's about who gets the most. So if you have too many candidates who are in the race, Trump could win with a small minority. Unless, of course, he doesn't come in, he doesn't get 270 electoral votes then everything just becomes chaos that's another potential for civil war nobody gets 270 and then it's just a you know everybody's freaking out and screaming at each other yeah right yeah you know what man i'll tell you what it's going to be the most exciting november of my life it's gonna be fun we got to order a bunch of pizzas same for me i. I'm going to be sitting here with you. We're probably going to be talking about it. We're going to be hopefully in somewhere new.
Starting point is 00:52:12 In a new area. In a new area with new projects. In Tim's proximity, I hope. Yeah. That would be nice. We'll be in a similar space, and we'll see what happens in November. But now let's do this. Let's move on to the absolute psychosis that is our modern world. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:52:28 Ladies and gentlemen. Oh, this. I would like to bring you to the broken simulation. Cool. Earth 2020. Yes. Where the words you speak, literally the definitions, can alter the course of a virus. Wow.
Starting point is 00:52:43 Let me explain something to all of you good people watching. Listen, we have recently learned that if you go out into the streets with thousands of people linking arms and you say these words, no lockdown, all of a sudden the virus erupts from the streets, spraying out of sewer pipes and it's hitting everybody
Starting point is 00:53:03 and they're falling over, screeching and gasping for air. But there's one cure. You need only do literally the exact same thing. Go out with thousands of people, link arms and say, Black Lives Matter. And then the virus dissipates and squeals in horror and you dance and cheer and the sun comes out and the world has become a better place. Oh my gosh. Experts say.
Starting point is 00:53:24 You may think I'm joking. I thought you were joking when you first told me. I'm not joking. Yeah. The first thing that I'd like to show you is this story from The Guardian. Oh, hello. Now, this is just one of many stories I've decided to pull up. U.S. lockdown protests may have spread virus widely, cell phone data suggests.
Starting point is 00:53:46 Devices associated with protests traveled up to hundreds of miles after rallies where few precautions were taken. Now, how many stories do we see just like this? In fact, there were many saying that the lockdown protesters are killing grandma, for instance. Well, it's OK, because now we've learned that Black Lives Matter protests, meaning quite literally the subject matter, may have slowed the overall spread of coronavirus in Denver and other cities, a new study finds. There it is, everybody. Quite literally, the subject matter of your protest will alter the course of a virus.
Starting point is 00:54:16 We've done it. We've found it. Magic words. Yes. It's true. It's magic. I always knew the human race had such potential. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:54:25 See, here's the thing. Who would have thought that while we've looked for the ancient texts of spells that would grant us power over physical reality, you needed only to have two different protests and start saying different things until you finally figured it out? Soon enough, we realized that your political ideology can influence whether or not a plague will kill you. Isn't that cool? Wow. Tim sent me that and I said, miraculous. It's a miracle. It's pure magic. Do you remember that study that was going around
Starting point is 00:54:53 about writing the words on water, on the side of a water cup? Yep, yep. Hate, love, whatever. New age, hippy-dippy stuff. They were like, look at the water crystals, how they change. And it's like, it was-dippy stuff. They were like, look at the water crystals, how they change. Yeah. And it's like, it was actually not really proven.
Starting point is 00:55:09 I was like, well, I want to actually look into it. And there was no actual study. Of course, of course. I was like, oh, that's sad. You can't will your emotional energy into water. Just like, no, this is fake news. Look at this article. It's very obvious what they're doing.
Starting point is 00:55:23 The whole thing's been political. There are people who are very stupid, unfortunately, who think this will work and unfortunately are correct when it pertains as it pertains some people. While the protests brought thousands of people together, they likely caused many more to stay home. A research team, including a University of Colorado Denver professor,. You mean it's Hold on. Wait. So here's the logic. The logic is this. The logic is that as thousands of people who normally would be locked down decided to go outside,
Starting point is 00:55:54 there's more people inside? I'm so confused. The math is... What does he teach again? He didn't do good in math. I don't think he did well in math i guess i don't think he did it doesn't matter they're lying they're lying it's obvious they're lying yes it's bad
Starting point is 00:56:11 you can't run your business but we can burn your business down you can't go get a haircut but we can go out and scream and pull people's hair yeah yeah scale people yeah you're not allowed to run your business but hey we're gonna gather by the tens of thousands and chant and scream yep and then just when when when everyone's like hey i kind of have a problem with you saying i can't do this they go well actually you're spreading covid more the science says that uh black lives matter saves lives are you a science denier i imagine it's like this this study actually as it came out wasn't research and like well thought out. It was a guy who's like sitting in a room and he's like the protests actually slow the virus by keeping people inside because more people went outside. No, you know, maybe they were doing the uh the joe
Starting point is 00:57:06 biden tweet and it just like generator and they were like oh oh no what that's legit oh let's post it it's in colorado you know what the issue was it was 100 in colorado you know what they were doing what little puff and pass is that what it was a little puff yeah i think so i think so so they call it wait wait here's the meme here's the meme what you go on you you type in here's the deal and then you keep pressing autofill predictive text and then and then you fill up a tweet and that's a joe biden speech so here's what they did they were like we're going to do a study and they kept mashing it and it's like so they typed in black lives matter protest may have and like slowed down the spread of covid by keeping people inside
Starting point is 00:57:46 while they went outside and they were like send and they're like have you have you stopped have you stopped to think about the logic of what you've just said no no they don't people went outside and that means more inside sorry logic and the left that those two l's don't get along well those two he's a professor yeah what does he Professor. Those two L's. He's a professor? Yeah. What does he teach? That's what I want to know. What does he a professor in?
Starting point is 00:58:09 Seriously. I'm going to look it up. So look, to be fair, the first story I pulled up says it may have. Oh. And this was saying, actually. So here's the deal. What they've basically said is we are now able to go and protest for whatever we want. Basically.
Starting point is 00:58:22 That's it. Unless you're protesting the lockdown. But there is, hold on. I do have another fair assessment as to what they're really trying to say. We need only change one word in this article to make it actually make sense. Shall I change the word for you
Starting point is 00:58:38 and reread the headline? Please do. Pull up the story again. There we go. Let me read you the headline first. Black Lives Matter protests may have slowed overall spread of coronavirus in denver and other cities new study finds while the protests brought thousands of people together they likely caused many more to stay home a research
Starting point is 00:58:54 team including blah blah now i'm going to change one word okay and the whole thing will make sense i'm tracking okay black lives matter riots may have slowed overall spread of coronavirus while the while the riots brought thousands of people together, they likely caused many more to stay home. I would say inside. Way more accurate. Now that makes sense. Yeah. Because now you actually do have people who might normally
Starting point is 00:59:16 go out for a walk hiding in their homes as their cities are ransacked and destroyed. That kind of makes sense. That's a good point, Tim. Absolute terrorism. So using their language, riots don't exist. Right. My favorite is MSNBC,
Starting point is 00:59:30 where the host is like, now, you know, these protests have been very peaceful while the precinct, the police department is on fire and burning behind him. It's all peaceful. Don't mind the fire behind the emerald curtain.
Starting point is 00:59:43 Everything's fine. That's what we get, man. You know, what's scary to me is when, you know, I was arguing with this dude I know from back in my neighborhood. And it was about the Trump-Russia bounty story. Do you know the story? Oh, yeah, I do. That Putin, you know, offered a bounty to Afghan militants to kill American soldiers. And it's the stupidest story I've ever heard.
Starting point is 01:00:06 And it's just like it's so bad. The reason it's dumb. And there's a bunch of national security reporters who brought this up right away, which made me laugh as they were like the the Afghan militants are low, low cost, ill-equipped insurgents for the most part who need no reason to kill American soldiers. None whatsoever. They've been doing it for decades now. Right. Offering them a bounty per soldier is rather meaningless. But more importantly, the intelligence community is
Starting point is 01:00:32 divided on it. Apparently, the NSA is saying we have no evidence to support this. Trump denied it. Pence denied it. Other administration officials denied it. The New York Times has, I guess, a single unnamed source. Yep. That's the thing that keeps getting me. I have all the, even people I know are like hitting me up how can you explain this? And I was like, you explain it to me then. Where's the proof? I read the article you just sent me. There's no proof. They're like, well, the UK said it. And it's like, okay, well, that's the UK. They reference the US, but there's no actual proof that has anything to do with it. They're just alluding. They're like, well, see, this makes sense. And I was like, no, it doesn't.
Starting point is 01:01:07 I want I want some actual tangible proof. Where's your proof? It's not even about whether you support Trump or don't. It's that. Why am I arguing with someone who's proven nothing? Yes. So it's like you come to me with a story. I say, wow, that might be true. Can you prove it? No. Well, then have a nice day. Yeah. And not only that, they're like, I can't believe you can still support Trump. And I was like, I just asked you for some proof nice day. Yeah. And not only that, they're like, I can't believe you can still support Trump. And I was like, I just asked you for some proof on this. Yeah, calm down. I didn't even say Trump.
Starting point is 01:01:30 I'm not even, we're not even talking about that right now. I just want to know if this, if it is true, I want to know so I can report on it. Tell me that it's true. I want to find out if it's true or not. This is the big challenge. It's not true. Let me, let me, let me, I'm going'm, so I'm going to take my humble knob from, from, you know, a good seven down to a zero right now.
Starting point is 01:01:49 Oh, nice. Whoa. I'm the founding member of the fastest growing news organization in history. And I regularly, regularly, well, I used to give guest lectures to PhD journalism programs. And I've guest lectured several journalism programs and spoken at many universities about journalism. And I've been flown out to some of these very high profile events and been offered jobs of some of the biggest news organizations, news organizations in the world. And even then, I will not pretend to know for a fact what really
Starting point is 01:02:15 happened. So why is some dude who drives trucks for a living telling me I'm wrong because he saw a meme from a reply guy claiming Trump is selling American soldiers to Putin. Exactly. That meme is so bad. I responded with, I'm like, I'm arguing with this dude and I'm like, hey, here's what I think. And then their response is like, you're so dumb. Like, obviously we know this is true. The New York Times said it.
Starting point is 01:02:36 And I'm like, one unnamed source does not a confirmation make. I mean, it used to be you needed three sources to confirm this. Right. They got one person saying, hey, we did this and all of these denials. And then I finally end with like, you know what, bro? I'm sick of this. I'm not going to go to a doctor and say, well, I don't care what you think about vaccines. I'm going to go to them and say, yeah, you're the doctor.
Starting point is 01:02:55 I'll take your word for it. Yeah. I'm not a doctor. I didn't go to medical school. I'm not going to pretend like I will know. It's like what Bill Burr said to Rogan when he was like, I'm not going to do this. I'm not going to sit here with no medical degree. Listen to you sit there with no medical degree.
Starting point is 01:03:07 Talk about whether we should be wearing masks. That's fair. And I'm like, excellent. Yes. Now, that being said, if I was to come to you and say, I know for a fact what really happened, then by all means, challenge me. But if I go to you and say, as a journalist and political commentator and cultural commentator, I have not seen hard definitive proof.
Starting point is 01:03:25 And to be honest, the track record for these stories is like a serious net negative. Yeah. Like The Intercept has put out this very fun story I love, the top 20 stories on Russiagate that failed. Oh, man. So I'm sorry. The burden of proof is on The New York Times. You can't just say we talked to one person who thinks it happened. You need to prove it.
Starting point is 01:03:42 Yeah, exactly. And then don't come and argue with me that you know how the news actually works when you've done no research on this. And I swear to God, the source was a reply guy, was one of those people who responds to Trump, just makes things up. Exactly. And I'm like, your source of news is memes, dude. Yeah, memes.
Starting point is 01:03:58 It's Occupy Democrats. Okay, hold on. I'm going to turn your... Turn the humbility back up? Yeah, turn it back to seven. Humbility? Humble button. Humble bar. I'm going to turn your... Turn the humbility back up? Yeah, turn it back to 7. Humbility? Humble button. Humble bar.
Starting point is 01:04:08 Turn it back to 11. There's a report that comes out every year. It's a News Whips engagement tracker or whatever. Okay. The funny thing is, I think this was 2018 now, so I need to update my information on this one. But the number one source of engagements for conservative news, can you guess which outlet conservatives flock to in large, like the biggest numbers? I mean, based on what we talked about earlier, I'm going to guess Fox.
Starting point is 01:04:33 Boom. I don't know. You nailed it. Is it Fox? Bingo. You win the grand prize. Fox News. What do I win?
Starting point is 01:04:38 A thousand points. A UFO spin. A UFO spin. Oh, yeah. Ding, ding, ding. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. So conservatives, according to this report, Fox News is the number one source of information for conservatives.
Starting point is 01:04:49 Okay. Now, do you know what the number one source for news for Democrats, for left-leaning individuals was? I have no idea. Occupy Democrats. Occupy Democrats. Pretty much Reddit, yeah. Occupy Democrats.
Starting point is 01:05:00 Occupy Democrats is a conspiracy theory meme page where they just make fake memes. So I wasn I wasn't wrong. You were very close. Yeah. Well, it's worse than Reddit. Yeah. Reddit's an aggregator. Okay. But yeah, it's Occupy Democrats generated the most engagement among the left. Wow. So they're getting their information from a picture of Trump going like, and then it says like Trump kills babies and children and locks them in cages. Yeah. That's why when you try to talk to logic and actual, oh, well, here's where I'm getting my information. This is what I know about it all. What do you know about it? It's like, that's all you get. Like, well, if you don't know what I know, then you just don't know. And then they walk away. It's so weird. They've gone insane.
Starting point is 01:05:39 Yeah, it's like, where's that logic? Like, what happened to having a conversation? Like, I was straight up trying to have a conversation with who I thought was a friend of mine earlier today on Facebook. It devolved into, I don't know you anymore. I can't believe you're such a racist now. And I'm like, what? Who are you talking to? Well, like, me? You're talking to me?
Starting point is 01:05:59 Like, what are you talking about? Did you tell them that you work for a minority-owned company? I should have led with that. Man. What the heck? Missed opportunity, you know know yeah next time i'll i'll lead with that you know my favorite thing about the the whiteness definition is what their ultimate goal is actually to make everyone white i'm not kidding interesting so uh one of there's a few arguments they use no wonder they got rid of aunt jemima so quick oh yeah no no no they they want so so here's what they say. They say white.
Starting point is 01:06:26 This is a recent article that came out that white isn't actually a real ethnic descriptor. OK. Because, say, back in, you know, 1700s or whatever, Italians weren't considered white. Right. Right. And then in the early 1900s. I mean, a hundred years ago, it wasn't like that. Well, a hundred years ago, Irish people weren't white or whatever. Right. Right. Irish people weren't. And then in the early 1900s. I mean, a hundred years ago, it wasn't like that. Well, a hundred years ago, Irish people weren't white or whatever.
Starting point is 01:06:47 And so they're like, that proves that whatever white is, is just the dominant group. So now they're arguing that Asians are in fact. The new white. Yes. 100%. That's why they're. So that's their justification for discriminating against Asians. And I'll tell you what, man, I had one of the best conversations ever with these lunatics.
Starting point is 01:07:06 I was in, it was Seattle. Okay. And I was at UW, University of Washington in Seattle. And this guy was a weird guy, was, we were arguing about something. And then all of a sudden, I think I said something like,
Starting point is 01:07:22 you realize like the white supremacist people you're talking about right now are like Asian dudes, like mixed race asian dudes and then he immediately jumped to the yeah well we all know that hitler you know the nazis and the japanese were allies and i was like what okay they weren't well they were the axis right but if they were allies we would have they were out with each other not necessarily if they actually worked together that war might not have happened the way it did. They didn't work together.
Starting point is 01:07:47 Right. They were doing their own separate things. Right. And so my point was like, that was basically my point. I'm like, what? I was like, you're arguing that in 1987, a white dude married a Chinese woman because of World War II? Yeah, what? And he was like, bro, I'm telling you, man, these white supremacists love Asian women.
Starting point is 01:08:05 And I'm like, white supremacists want to mix the race? What are you talking about, dude? That's so funny. And then I turned, I got mad. I was like, bro, are you actually arguing against race mixing?
Starting point is 01:08:19 Like, are you a white supremacist? And then he was like, no, no, no. And I'm like, bro, you're literally pulling out like, like some kind of weird, you know, anti-Asia. And he's like, no, no i'm like bro you're literally pulling out like like some kind of weird you know anti-asia and he's like no no no i don't mean it like that and i'm like yeah you do i think you do i think you just let the max mask slip a little too much and now you're i see what you're really mad about this this is a white guy i tell you what man these people in the pacific northwest screaming racial slurs yeah i think you know i have to question
Starting point is 01:08:43 because we talked about about this before like who really benefits from their policies? Who benefits from removing Aunt Jemima from Aunt Jemima Pancakes? The family's angry about it. I know they are, exactly. They don't want it to happen. I don't either. I see Aunt Jemima, I'm like,
Starting point is 01:08:58 that's a sweet looking lady. Yeah, literally sweet. They're taking something away. They're taking away the legacy from a black family. How about, look at that, what is it called, DC Black Tours? Was that the guy? Yeah, literally sweet. They're taking something away. They're taking away the legacy from a black family. Look at that, what is it called, DC Black Tours? Was that the guy? Yeah, that guy. What a boss, man.
Starting point is 01:09:10 He's the guy defending the Lincoln statue. And these young people are screaming at him. And I'm like, the statue's being defended by an older black man. Who's straight up really been through it all. And he talks about it on his Facebook page. And then he says, like, who paid for the statue? Who paid for it? And they don't realize it was paid for by freed slaves.
Starting point is 01:09:30 To whom he's related. And what he said was, what you need to protest is that they turned it around. It's supposed to be facing the White House, I guess. Really? And it was like it was changed direction or something like that. I don't know if that's true. But he was saying something like that. And apparently, I watched a video from an older black woman explaining the statue.
Starting point is 01:09:47 She was saying something like it's supposed to symbolize this person's chains are being broken and they're realizing what true freedom is. And they're grateful to Lincoln, the great emancipator. And it was paid for by the freed slaves. So I actually I can understand why people look at it and say, you know, our freedom should not be predicated upon the, you know, the white Americans or whatever. But it's still history. It's still what actually happened that led us here to have them be free. But their feelings don't matter. Feelings.
Starting point is 01:10:17 That's the point. Feelings. I can understand how they feel about it but when you have the older crowd the elders and the majority saying straight up we we recognize and we appreciate and we want this statue you don't get to be the one person with hurt feelings saying i will burn it all to the ground exactly and that's and that's where we're at man it's just people playing with the strings of emotions of the these young people they're just control it's all control it's all it is yeah yep nasty people who have who have it's insane people with insane objectives yeah and the funny thing is i love that quote from john lennon it was something like
Starting point is 01:10:50 you know they're insane people running the country for for insane reasons and i'm likely to be put away as insane for saying it something like that okay it's like it's still true to this day yeah the the the democrats are literally insane i'm sorry man, man. Feels like it, yeah. Here's how I feel right now about the whole system. I think Nancy Pelosi is not necessarily insane. Oh, I do. Well, no, no, no. I'll say it. Hear me out.
Starting point is 01:11:12 I think figuratively insane in that she's willing to cede all of this ideological territory to truly insane people. Yeah, okay. It would be like you being the mayor of Gotham City being like, well, instead of fighting the Joker, let's just let him have his go of it, I guess. See what happens. He'll get tired eventually. It's the young people and their ideas. Go at it, Joker.
Starting point is 01:11:36 These people have no goals. They're just running around bouncing off the walls. It just sounds like bad parenting to me. I think the Republicans are nothing. I don't even know what they are. There's a small handful of them I can name that I think do good things. Like I mentioned, Rand Paul, for instance, I think he's one of the best we got. Yeah, I mentioned him earlier because he's actually putting bills out that would help fix some of the problems.
Starting point is 01:11:55 They're out there protesting and the Democrats are stopping him. It's like, hmm. But what do the rest of the Republicans do? What do they do? As I said, I'm still learning about politics. I don't know many Democrats. I don't know many Republicans. I'm learning more and more as we go, and it's really not good.
Starting point is 01:12:12 It's not a good look on the Democrats from what I'm learning. Tucker Carlson, one of the reasons he has the highest ratings ever, he's calling out the Republicans. There's this really viral segment right now where he's got this, I think, Republican senator from Indiana who's in favor of police reform and limiting qualified immunity. And Tucker is like, why are you saying that, you know, what the cop did in Atlanta was it was a tragedy?
Starting point is 01:12:35 What should he have done? And this Republican can't say anything. And he's like, you are siding with these people. I'm seeing I'm not saying I'm seeing a lot of Trump supporters say say like the republicans are siding with the looters even a little bit yeah because they're like okay okay we'll give you a little bit of what you want just please don't hurt us that's it so you've got a little bit they they realize that they can take whatever they want then yeah it's an avalanche and the republicans are certainly you know near the top of the slope as everything goes crashing down and the democrats are at the bottom just free-falling. It's bad parenting.
Starting point is 01:13:10 It's them giving the crying baby all the attention because the baby's crying. It's like sometimes you have to let the baby finish crying and not pamper them, not coddle them. There's still a debate about spankings. Apparently spankings are bad. Who knew? I don't know. That's what they say. So I'm not going to pretend that I know how you raise kids.
Starting point is 01:13:26 But I'll tell you what. If you know what all of this far left stuff, it reminds me of I think it was a Futurama episode. I love I love using Futurama for references. Yes, you do. I know this. Yes, you do. I could be wrong about it, but it's like it's a woman and she's got her kid. Maybe it's Simpsons.
Starting point is 01:13:43 And the kid's like, i want you know this video game or something and then she's like well i don't know if you get it shut up mom get me the game and she goes okay and then she buys it yeah and i'm like that's it the old carmen's mom the mom is the democrat and the kid is the progressives and the kids are like shut up pelosi give me what i want she goes okay i'll just give you what you want and then she like hands the keys to the castle just letting it all burn down and we're sitting there like stop just tell them to shut up you know what i love deal with it there's that south park episode where they where they're giving the kids ritalin and adderall or whatever i think it's ritalin okay
Starting point is 01:14:19 and then i think it's south park yeah where they're like explaining a non-medicinal way to uh get kids to to act properly. Okay. You know what I'm talking about, this episode? I think you referenced this before. Yeah. There's a bunch of kids, and they're bouncing around all crazy. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:14:33 And he's like, notice how the children won't sit down and pay attention. Now I'll apply the non-medicinal effort. And he whacks the kid. Shut up! And the kid stops. And he's like, see, now the child is focused and paying attention. Let's try it on the next child. And he walks over, and the kid's bouncing. and then he slams the table sit down and shut up
Starting point is 01:14:49 and the kid freezes and he's like and once again the treatment works i don't know if that's necessarily good parenting no it's a joke it's a funny point but maybe it's because somewhere in the middle these kids have no one strong to look up to. Yep. Like, you know, man. The alpha male, man. The family. Apparently right now Kellyanne Conway's daughter is going viral because she's ragging on her parents and Trump. Okay. And I'm like, you know, that's probably fine. Kids rebel and all this stuff.
Starting point is 01:15:15 But what about that? You have that Michigan GOP guy whose daughter was like going hard against him saying, don't vote for him, please. He's awful. And I'm like, how have you raised your kids this way? Right. Exactly. That's on you, man. You know what? She's right. No. When she said don't vote for him please he's awful and i'm like how have you raised your kids this way you know right exactly like that's on you man you know what she's right no when she said don't vote for him she's right i won't that's a good point because if she if she if she views you that way if your daughter doesn't believe in you and you're a dad well that's not how he raised the his daughter it's that he didn't raise his daughter well that's part of how look no matter what you do you raise your kids.
Starting point is 01:15:45 Okay. If you raise them poorly by neglecting them and failing to teach them. It's how you raise them. It's you. It's what your choices are. All right. Good point. So the way I see it is either he raised her poorly and she's disrespectful and disobedient
Starting point is 01:15:57 and has no respect. You know, okay, fine. Then why would I trust this guy to leave the country? Or he did raise her properly, and she's legitimately like, don't vote for the guy. I'm like, all right. Hey, man, there you go. That's the kid you raised.
Starting point is 01:16:10 I'll take their word for it. Yeah, good point. But, you know, I guess the crux of the conversation is spoiled kids who think they deserve everything, romping around, smashing things. And, again, to go back to the Joker, it reminds me of that Dark Knight when the Joker says he's like a dog chasing a car. He wouldn't know what to do if he ever actually caught one. And so this is what happens when these people go out.
Starting point is 01:16:32 Andrew Cuomo said this. He says, you've won. What do you want? And they were like, smash. And they started just ramping around. So Andrew Cuomo actually said to the protesters, he gave a public statement. He said, you've won. We agree.
Starting point is 01:16:46 Now tell us what you want. And they couldn't. They just keep marching around screaming justice. That's what we want. It's like, what does that mean? They don't know what it means because they're ignorant. They don't have any idea. They have no clue.
Starting point is 01:16:57 Dude, watching these videos from the Chaz. It's insane. It's a war zone now. Totally. So according to one witness, they said the Chastity National Guard fired 300 rounds at a car. I don't believe that. How many times would they have to reload to fire 300 rounds? The nonstop for like 10 minutes.
Starting point is 01:17:16 They'd be like pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop. Well, sure, from one gun. But when you have six or seven people. There were three guys. Oh, okay. Three guys. But even if you had six firing 50 rounds, I mean, mean that would be you'd hear it in the videos that's insane i from the few videos that i did here there was a lot of pops yeah but 300 rounds does feel a little
Starting point is 01:17:35 exaggerated right but that's that's again those are the videos that we've seen you know dude from you know actual video evidence these are kids it is what it is who are who are playing adult versions of cops and robbers yeah riots and revolutionaries i watch one of these videos that went you know one of these live streams and you can see some of these people like 18 19 years old dumb looks on their faces just like totally shocked that a car is covered in blood yep and they're just like uh wow Wow, blood is real. That's real blood. At least it's this is my favorite quote. It's like
Starting point is 01:18:09 a crime scene. Is that what they said? Yeah. It's like wow. Yes, it is. That's what happens when you shoot somebody. That would be a crime scene. You know what's really crazy about the Chaz is that I was watching the live stream for one of these guys and he explained that there were several shootings the other day. And I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Starting point is 01:18:26 Wait, what? How come we never heard that? Because people didn't get hit. So he explained that there have been multiple shootings where no one got injured. Of course. Because of that, no one reports anything. A gunshot goes off, no one says anything. A gunshot goes off, somebody gets hit.
Starting point is 01:18:39 All of a sudden, now you've got major international news. So he was like, yeah, earlier today there was a couple shots fired. Fortunately, nobody was hurt. And then like, you know, a little bit after that we heard some gunshots at the park. And I'm like, you mean to tell me that there were like three shootings that day? Yeah, but it doesn't get reported every time a gunshot goes off. It's crazy. So people don't know.
Starting point is 01:18:58 They only hear that we are only hearing about the shootings where someone actually got hit. Or died. How many times has someone been shot at? Probably a lot. For all we know, the first shooting wasn't the actual first shooting. It was the first shooting that was successful. Oh, my gosh. Good point.
Starting point is 01:19:10 You hear the dad of the victim is calling for the National Guard to come and plow it all down? I kind of want them to. Can you blame him? Yeah, the city needs to get a hold of it. And the mayor, instead of actually dealing with it, is complaining about the other councilwoman. Because she's going against her. Yeah. And I don't blame her seriously there a lot of people are saying like yeah yeah get her get her off the council and put her into the mayor's seat i'm just like oh yes good good i know exactly this this this woman this councilwoman led a protest at the mayor's house
Starting point is 01:19:42 okay i don't agree for i don't agree with the reasons but i'm glad the mayor's getting protested yep she is she is she is just man the way described is like imagine if your house like your dog barfed on your floor like right when you're about to go to work and you're like oh man i can't i don't have time to clean this up so you hire a cleaner right okay and they're like they show up and you're like i gotta leave for work can you clean this up so when i'm back everything's clean like you got it you come back the barf still there you, yo, I thought I hired you specifically to deal with this and to like manage this. And they're like, oh, you know, we're going to talk about it. And hopefully it dries and clears up on its own.
Starting point is 01:20:15 You're like, why did I hire you if you can't do the job? And that's the mayor of Seattle. Oh, man. I bet to her when she was running, she was probably thinking how easy it's going to be. I think lots of mayors thought that until this year. Sit back. You don't got to do anything. You got to live in the mayor's mansion.
Starting point is 01:20:34 Just hand me a mansion. Yeah, this is sweet. Yeah. Get access to city budgets for planning how you want to plan doing what you want to do. And then the riots came. And then she was like, what do I do? I don't know. Oh, no. And now there was like, what do I do? I don't know. Oh, no. And now there's like
Starting point is 01:20:46 multiple shootings. Five people, I believe, have been hit. There have been other shootings where no one got hit, fortunately. And the city is just... Kids are getting killed. Seriously.
Starting point is 01:20:55 Yeah. So earlier today, they tried clearing it out. And then the protesters just immediately put it back up. Because they're not arresting them. Yep, exactly. They're not dealing
Starting point is 01:21:04 with the problem. So what can we expect? They're setting it up in New York City now. They're expanding their New York autonomous zone. Now, DC and other cities have crushed these autonomous zones. It was satisfying to watch the DC shut down. The cops just come in, flip the tables. Get out of here.
Starting point is 01:21:24 I was like yes dude even in portland which is super far left that's true the mayor came in and crushed their autonomous zone god i couldn't imagine being in seattle you heard about that billion dollar firm 1.5 billion dollar management firm is dipping in phoenix moved to phoenix yeah i'm hearing other companies are saying the same thing i don't blame blame them. There was another story I read where they basically said that the economy is being crippled and obviously with the mismanagement
Starting point is 01:21:49 by the government, there's just better opportunities and benefits in other places. Yep. So like I think other companies are planning on relocating to Texas and stuff like that. Yep.
Starting point is 01:21:58 Which can be bad for Texans if a bunch of Seattle people move there, you know, and they bring their politics with them. But Seattle, what's going to become? Is it going to be Detroit? Detroit 2.0roit i know yeah yep you know the the funny thing we've already got covid now we've got covid wave number two of course as long as you say black
Starting point is 01:22:15 lives matter the the virus goes away you don't have to worry about it but what's going to be left of cities at all with or without autonomous zones i don't know i'm over living in a city i lived in new york for most of my adult life and i i am so happy i don't live in a city anymore i'm just gonna i'm just gonna tell everyone what our plan is i'm just gonna say straight up do it we're we're getting a space station it's a giant ring you may have seen it in the movie elysium and it spins to create an artificial grab i'm kidding that'd be awesome we're getting off the planet because the planet is blowing up doomed yep bye guys and it spins to create an artificial gravity. I'm kidding. That'd be awesome. We're getting off the planet because the planet is doomed. Yep.
Starting point is 01:22:47 Bye, guys. And it's going to be a big ring in the sky. We'll still be podcasting. That is a pretty cool movie, though, Elysium. Yeah, but it was so obvious what they did. No, it's true. It was like the people on Earth spoke Spanish and the people in Elysium spoke French.
Starting point is 01:23:00 Hmm. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Have you noticed that? I did see that, yeah. Yeah, we get it. We get it. We get it.
Starting point is 01:23:05 Let's do one more segment before the Super Chats here. Okay, let's-huh. You notice that? I did see that, yeah. Yeah, we get it. We get it. We get it. Let's do one more segment before the super chats here. Okay, let's do it. What is this? Superheroes are racist, bro. Oh, really? Cool. We're reexamining how we portray cops on screen. Now it's time to talk about superheroes.
Starting point is 01:23:18 Oh, my Lanta. My friends. My friends. I must tell you why I find this article. Time.com from Time Magazine? Yeah. Mm-hmm. Do you want to know why I find this article. Time.com from Time magazine? Yeah. Do you want to know why I love this article? Do tell me.
Starting point is 01:23:31 So the argument is superheroes tend to be white people enforcing their vision of justice on an unwilling population. And I was like, and you have a problem with that? The article says yes. I'm like, okay, now do Antifa. Oh. And they're like, Antifa is a group of mostly white people using violence to enforce their vision of justice
Starting point is 01:23:53 on an unwilling populace. I think it's funny that they don't realize their view of Antifa is the same as this and they're criticizing it for the same reason. Welcome to the club. You now understand why we don't like Antifa. That's like COVID if you call it something different. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 01:24:09 That is funny. There is an issue with superheroes being vigilantes. And quite literally, have you ever seen the Batman movies where he fights cops? Yep, it's true. They don't get it. They don't understand that, yes, what they're doing is not acceptable. Well, to be fair,
Starting point is 01:24:28 the commissioner is okay with Batman. Yeah. But the point is, like Spider-Man, Batman, and many superheroes go against the grain, go against the law. But then you have Superman
Starting point is 01:24:39 who very much works within the confines of law and the American way. They use Superman for this. What was Superman's original motto? Truth, of law and the American way. They use Superman for this. What was Superman's original motto? Truth, justice, and the American way? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:51 Now they want to complain about that. Interesting. But let's read. Let's read what Time has to say about how he portrays superheroes. And they show this picture of everyone touching Superman. In the past several weeks, as calls to defund the police have gone mainstream, pop culture critics and fans have reconsidered how Hollywood heroizes In the past several weeks, as calls to defund the police have gone mainstream,
Starting point is 01:25:09 pop culture critics and fans have reconsidered how Hollywood heroizes... Heroizes? Never heard that before. Is that a word? Weird. I don't like it. Legal procedurals and shoot-em-ups action movies have long presented a skewed perception of the justice system in America. To be fair, we just watched all the Pirates movies recently.
Starting point is 01:25:24 Like, we were hanging out in the weekend and I played all the Pirates. Yeah, it was great. Pirates are really awful things. They're like murderous rapists. Did I tell you my story about dealing with the land pirates? No. In Belgium? Oh, really? No, what happened?
Starting point is 01:25:39 So me and Nisha were driving through and we were driving around Europe and we stopped in Belgium and we were driving around Europe and we stopped in Belgium and we were actually warned about this before we left about land pirates. This is a real thing. Land pirates? Never heard of this. So what they do is they look for RVs
Starting point is 01:25:57 at like different places and they gas because all RVs have like an exhaust spot that has to be legally you have to have an open area so the air can flow so they gas the inside of the rv put the people to sleep break into the rv and steal everything and then leave oh and then you wake up and it's all gone so we're we're cooking dinner we're you know we're night owls so we're up late and we we were we're looking
Starting point is 01:26:22 out the window and she's like i see someone looking at us and i'm like what and i look out and there's sure enough there's a dude like spying on our rv i'm like okay so i kind of like turn the light on and i'm like i look at him i'm like i see you and i see and he like oh walks away and i'm like now now we're on high alert you know like we're eating dinner we're looking out the window like what's going on what's going on and we see them go to another RV on the other side it was like an RV spot and we're like
Starting point is 01:26:51 oh my gosh that was the old couple that was walking their dog like an hour ago and they're in the RV right now and those guys and then we hear a machine kick over and I'm like oh my gosh they're probably gassing these people so I straight up get out and I walk over and they are and i'm like oh my gosh they're probably gassing these people so so i straight up get out and i walk over and they are and i'm like yo sorry if that was loud but that's what i did i
Starting point is 01:27:12 did i did you know just like a yo thing yeah like what are you doing and they they don't even look they're just like whatever continuing and i'm like okay this is this is weird so i go i go to the near store i'm like yo there's, there's some like land pirates. And they're like, English? Oh. And I'm like, okay. El Pirato. What can I do, you know?
Starting point is 01:27:32 Belgian. Yeah. So I like walk out and I go and turn on and we bounce, dude. We are like, we're out of here. It sucks. But I think me yelling woke the people up. Oh, good. Because as I walked out of the place, they were screaming past me in the car. Oh, wow. But I think me yelling woke the people up. Because as I walked out of the place, they were screaming past me in the car.
Starting point is 01:27:52 It was one of those slow-mo moments where I looked at it. I was like, oh, my gosh, that's them. And they were like, that's the dude that yelled at us. Keep going, keep going, keep going. I was like, wow, land pirates are a thing. So, yes, pirates are bad. They steal your stuff. Pirates are very bad. So a nice side story.
Starting point is 01:28:06 It's a mini quest. Random side story. I love it. Side quest. So anyway, the point is, as they're talking about how movies make heroes out of cops, they also made heroes out of pirates in that movie. That's a good point. They're like, he's a pirate and a good man.
Starting point is 01:28:21 No, pirates literally, like you're on a boat. It's been three months. Your entire life is on the boat. They shoot cannons at you. Your whole world is burning down. You're gonna die. Yeah, they scuttle the boat. Yeah, they take... They leave you for dead. Take all the goods and leave. And take the women. Yep, they take the women. That's why
Starting point is 01:28:38 they don't like pirates. But this movie made all the pirates really fun, great heroes. But they were, like, anti-heroes, I guess. Well, those were Disney pirates, so... Disney can get away with it. Could you imagine, great heroes. But they were like anti-heroes, I guess. Well, those were Disney pirates. So Disney can get away with it. Could you imagine like all these kids being like, I want to be a pirate. And they're like, they got. Wow, you two did that really close.
Starting point is 01:28:53 I was like, yeah, because I can imagine it. They've got fake eye patches and they're going like, ha ha. And they're like swinging at each other. And then you have like, there's actual pirates that exist today. And like, have you seen that video from the cargo ship and the pirates attack it oh yeah and then they're like shooting at them like that's crazy yep yep some somali pirates i think oh man they're crazy anyway anyway the point of bringing up is movies make heroes of whatever they want to make heroes out of yep anti-heroes including bad guys that's what i was talking about the other day about how people are seeing movies and going
Starting point is 01:29:25 that's what real life is like it must be like that there must be that kind of person everywhere that's what everyone's like they turn always the antagonist of the movie that's what everyone that doesn't agree with me is like now these people are mentally ill man
Starting point is 01:29:40 this proves it to me have you ever watched Law and Order SVU? a couple episodes I think it's a great show good show and elliot stabler one of the characters on the show okay detective and i think he's i don't think he's a bad guy but he does have his moments where he's a bad guy oh where he'll like he like look they're dealing with sex crimes and stuff okay so there's moments where he like they catch a pedo and he snaps and like just starts beating the crap out of the guy and i'm like i feel you dude it's like i can't really be upset because you're i mean actually i love watching it's like yeah get him but but but very human emotion one
Starting point is 01:30:15 of the issues is that on several occasions he gets the wrong guy oh no and so ends up beating up innocent people in his rage ah but he gets in trouble for it. This is what they don't understand about this. He's held accountable. Yes, they make cops heroes, but in the show, they're like, Stabler, you're suspended or whatever. It's like, you can't do that. What's wrong with you, man?
Starting point is 01:30:33 There's actually one cop in the show who I think actually goes to jail because of a brutality issue. And I'm like, that's a part of the show. It reminds me of when all the feminists talk about rape culture stuff. They're like, we have a society that glorifies it and i was like where you do because quite literally we have a tv show that's been on for like 20 years dedicated to talking about why this is illegal and a crime and evil and these people must be in prison yeah it's
Starting point is 01:30:58 it's it's an insane to think that a society glorifies this when it actually glorifies a female sergeant named Olivia Benson, who leads a team to stop these people. And it's a highly rated show. The show's great. I love it. Take the bad guys down, man. Nobody's supporting this. So when you get Superman who doesn't go against the government and works with them, I'm sorry, man, you're not, you're, you're sure. What would you prefer? Is it, are you, are you, you would you want pirates of the caribbean where the bad guys are the good guys who go against the government or superman where the good guy works the government because you get both so articles like this in my opinion it's just
Starting point is 01:31:35 here's what i think happened there's some woke millennial you know sitting in the office at time hq in new york and their boss comes in and says, I'm seeing a lot of stories about these cops being bad in, like, Hollywood. Can you write something like that? And then the woke person's like, I mean, Spider-Man's white. You know, maybe we could do something with that. Yeah, let me think of something. And then he's like, oh, yeah, hey, superheroes are just basically cops,
Starting point is 01:32:03 but, like, I'll write that up. Something to just make up at the last minute, because someone's like, hey, I'll make it even worse. Actually, the editor walks in and says, yo, look, you got to publish something. Just, I don't know, pull something out of a hat. And then he goes, OK. And he goes, let's see, police brutality, wokeness and Superman. What can I do with that? Oh, I know.
Starting point is 01:32:22 Superheroes are glorified and they're criminals. Let's talk about superhero reform. It's like Mad Libs. You know what's interesting though? Yeah. I was reading something really interesting about superheroes. And it was saying something like, this might have been Jordan Peterson actually, how early hero archetypes challenged the system. Okay.
Starting point is 01:32:41 Like I can't remember which story, but like Hercules, I guess, you know, or whatever. They would fight the gods and challenge the gods and all that stuff and now today they uphold the system the heroes maintain the status quo and like when did that switch happen when did it used to be that the powers that be were the bad guys and now you know the powers that be are supported by the superheroes it's interesting very interesting someone said said in chat that the SJWs canceled SVU. They did? And I was like, what's going on with this? Did they really?
Starting point is 01:33:09 It's not that I haven't seen that it is canceled, but I guess people are trying to cancel Olivia Benson, the main character. Why? Because she's a cop? I don't know. It doesn't make sense. Oh, man. It says the first article that I come up with is say goodbye to law and order.
Starting point is 01:33:26 It says it does. Wonderful. Olivia Benson gets lionized as television's good cop that does real world damage. Dude. A strong female lead. It's all burning down around us. Can't even have that. Not good enough.
Starting point is 01:33:41 So what happens? Let's say Trump wins. What happens? You know, like cops are bad. Not good enough. So what happens? Let's say Trump wins. What happens? You know? Like, cops are bad. Up is down. The virus is healing Black Lives Matter supporters. I don't even know what's going on anymore.
Starting point is 01:33:54 No, no, no. What's going on right now is I'm becoming politically aware. I'm not going to lose that next year. This isn't going away. I am here now. I can't go back. I will never go go back i want to know what's going on what's going on right now is everyone's getting that way everyone's looking for themselves they're like maybe not everyone clearly not no but like not some people at time.com seriously but uh you know but i i you know i feel that i feel like people are are
Starting point is 01:34:24 seeing it and they're like you know what my i'm know i feel that i feel like people are are seeing it and they're like you know what my i'm gonna be more politically active i'm gonna be i'm gonna get into politics a lot of people have been hitting me up on twitter saying like you know what you've inspired me to get into politics and i'm like yes so great thank you we need to wait what is the word hero hero size hero wise hero wise we need we need to heroize politics and and take down the corrupt politicians that are really the cause of all this stuff yep you know what the issue is for too long we have been comfortable and what have i been saying for months and months people had no reason to be involved exactly and because of this the people who got elected were manipulators and deceivers and exploiters and then when things started to get stagnant and bad and scary and freaky people
Starting point is 01:35:10 started to come back actually saying like i gotta fix these things and so now you've quite literally got a very small group of real people who are like let's fix it with giant swamp swamp creatures yep milling about yeah it's true it's it's because there's people out there that want the power. And when you have all of the authority in the hands of the people that just want the power, that's when the issue is. That's where we're at now. Yep. All the people in Nancy Pelosi, for example, she wants that power.
Starting point is 01:35:39 She wants to be on the king of her castle. Look at her freaking kitchen. She represents these Democrats who have been in office for decades who are complaining about the state of the world because Trump has been in office for three years. I know. I know.
Starting point is 01:35:52 It's insane. Trump is so bad at this. It's like, but you've been here for 50 years. Yeah, you're not fixing anything. Joe, you were actually in the vice presidency for eight years. Right. And you did nothing.
Starting point is 01:36:04 You didn't fix any of this you made it all worse he did he made it worse all of the riots all the complaints about stopping friskin police brutality started under you dude so why would i want to go back to that i don't i don't know i don't know if trump is better but i know you're certainly not i was entertaining voting for one of these democrats until they they picked biden yeah i was like that's it i'm done not that guy you're nuts. Absolutely insane. I was watching those debates next to you, and I was just sitting there like, what am
Starting point is 01:36:30 I doing with these? What are these people actually talking about? They want Trump to win. That's the only way to describe it. He keeps going back to it. I know. I said it as a joke, but the more we talk about it, the more I mean. That's the real conspiracy.
Starting point is 01:36:40 Maybe. I don't know. Trump's pretending to be the underdog fighting the machine, but he's actually the real emperor. Yeah. Alright, how about we jump over to Super Chats?

Here's five bucks.
Starting point is 01:38:06 Let's see. Mind of the Museless says, harumph me, Appa. All right. Cole Smith says, what do you think the appropriate response on the right is on the doxing issue going on? Social media platforms are allowing it to happen. It ruins lives most of the time undeservingly. Well, it's a lot of people just say make it illegal. What do you think it's like or it happens there you go what so let me ask you i mean it's borderline defamation of
Starting point is 01:38:36 character what's the difference what would happen if i took your personal information put on a sign and walked around outside with it would i get in trouble uh i guess i don't know i don't think no i don't think so i mean who's around in this neighborhood listen the issue of doxing for the most part is that people's information is in the yellow is in the white pages you know what i mean like you can go online type in someone's name there you go okay got their address everything's publicly available it's always been that way okay i think about when i was little and we had a big old yellow pages and i remember the white pages and you'd open up the book and you'd look for someone's name and there's the phone number. Yeah, I remember that.
Starting point is 01:39:08 And I think their address too, right? Yeah. Or just phone number? Yeah, maybe. Yeah, I don't know. I think so. There they are. Just like that.
Starting point is 01:39:15 There's the directory of people. Right. You want to hear a funny story? But we weren't as connected then though. Now it's a little bit. We're in a different world now because of the internet. You want to hear a really, really, really immature, really immature story? Definitely do.
Starting point is 01:39:29 So when I was like 12. Let's go. It was, I think it was one of my friends. I can't remember. It's been a long time. But we were hanging out at my house and they were going through the phone book and they found someone named Jack Daniels. Okay.
Starting point is 01:39:40 And they thought it was hilarious. So they called him and they were like, the phone rings, and we hear a hello. And the guy goes, Yar, is this Jack Daniels? And he's like, yes. This be Captain Morgan. Prepare to be barded. And the guy started just laughing. He was like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:55 He's like, I get it. Very good, very good. Very funny. He's like, have a good one. Then he hung up. It's a really stupid, childish prank call story. That's good. I love it.
Starting point is 01:40:01 That's really funny. You have clever friends. Prepare to be barded. And Light and Worm says, do y'all need a drummer and tim how about a show and tell on your new guns would love to see them and be jealous love y'all thanks for everything y'all do a super duper super duper fantastic job i was advised not to tell anybody what we'd be packing and boy are we packing oh man yeah apparently the gun store was very, very happy. They were like, thank you very much, good sir. And I was like, oh, yeah. We'll leave it at that.
Starting point is 01:40:28 Yeah. But I'm still waiting to hear. Here's the crazy thing. So Crowder. The Crowder gun. Yeah. The Sig M400. Steven Crowder is working on getting everything taken care of and his crew and his friends
Starting point is 01:40:41 and stuff. The suppliers don't got anything. Yeah. They're all out. So I'm like, I'm didn't want i didn't want to wait for yeah the gun store he basically said like that gun specifically oh yeah it's like nobody's very highly sought after yeah it's gone sold out he's like he said that you know there have been people who have come to the store and he's like they won't they will not part with them no way yeah so i was like you know i guess steven was saying it's the cadillac of guns well it depends on who you ask but i can't get them i'm like wow that would be a yes so that'll be exciting i'm looking i'm looking forward to the
Starting point is 01:41:11 yeah so yeah when that comes out i'm gonna i'll make sure a video is is it'll be good make it happen professor roman dev says so tim you casting a protest vote against biden yet you keep saying you're worried about what would happen if he becomes president. So it sounds like you're on the Trump train. Not necessarily. I'm on that no way Biden train and the leaning towards Trump train. But I got to be honest, I want to see some real definitive actions taken in the next several months before I would consider definitively stating I will vote for Trump.
Starting point is 01:41:43 Basically, you've got a lot of dissatisfaction right now. And I tweeted out like, what's he even doing? The question is, I'll be honest with my feelings. I think Trump is doing the bare minimum in dealing with the riots and the vandalism. He's only enacting his authority and federal jurisdictions because I believe he knows the riots are good for him politically. And it's like they're trying to bait him. It's like they want him to do it. They want him to overstep his authority so they can use it. Oh, see, it's proof.
Starting point is 01:42:11 He's an authoritarian. But should that be the issue? Should Trump just go in and clean things up? This is a moral conundrum. I get it. No, we're the United States. The states run themselves. Right.
Starting point is 01:42:23 The federal government, that's not their job. So where I'm at right now is definitely leaning towards Trump. And it's because he's done certain things, the task force, the DOJ. I do like Bill Barr. I really do. And I love how the media smears him like crazy. And he's the most mild mannered guy. It's like I see I see all these articles with like Bill Barr is subverting the rule of law. He's corrupt. And then you watch Bill Barr and he's just like, you know, so we're putting together a task force. We're going to go after these people to the full extent of the law.
Starting point is 01:42:49 And I'm like, it's just very boring. He's like not energized. He's criticized Trump a couple of times, like, let me do my job. And then the media, the way they treat him is just insane. So I think the bigger issue about Trump is not Trump or Biden. It's about the peripheral governmental issues, the administration, the Supreme Court, etc.
Starting point is 01:43:09 Everyone's trying to pin it on Trump, but it's like there is so much that's wrong with the system. And he may have his issues, but it is not his fault. There's so much whose fault, where the fault lies. But I'll tell you this right now uh i am actually moderately leaning towards satisfied with how the supreme court has been ruling making their decisions okay i disagree with some of the things they've recently done yeah i agree with some of these things they've recently done but i'll tell you what man i wonder if john roberts is playing the long game john roberts that's his name right did i get it right john roberts yeah okay yeah
Starting point is 01:43:41 so he recently sided with the liberals on several key issues okay abortion most notably and now evangelicals i guess are livid and trump's gonna make it a big campaign issue and i'm like did roberts just help trump by doing this got some 4d chess because right and so maybe he didn't but think i think about it this way conservatives are complaining that the opinions issued by roberts make little legal sense and it's all like garbled and mumbo jumbo or whatever. Okay. I mean, Democrats are making the same argument about Kavanaugh and the conservative judges. But think about what would happen if the Supreme Court judges gave Trump everything he wanted and gave conservatives everything they wanted. They'd be like, well, we're good. And they'd go to sleep on election
Starting point is 01:44:20 day. Yeah. So these few rulings come through at the 11th hour literally the election is not even five months away at this point right and now you've got every single religious right-wing voter screaming at the top of their lungs like what is the supreme court doing heaven help us if joe biden gets elected that's a good point and he and he appoints two more replaces kennedy and uh ginsburg with some liberals yep. What happens if Trump wins again? And it's very likely, I think it's Kennedy. Is it Kennedy? Man, I'm probably getting my names mixed up.
Starting point is 01:44:51 So Kennedy dissented and so did Roberts. No, no, but Kennedy's older, right? I believe so. He's one of the ones that might have died. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So Ginsburg's definitely, you know, she's reaching her, I mean, it's all due respect. I think she's a very strong woman. Expiration date.
Starting point is 01:45:02 Story career. But she's getting on and she's sick. And I don't know if she'll make another term. If Trump gets elected, the Supreme Court goes very, very hard Republican. The issues I have are I don't agree with Republicans on a lot of these issues. The problem is the Democrats on the left have shown themselves completely
Starting point is 01:45:18 unwilling to support basic civil liberties. So now I, as like a moderate liberal who is pro-choice, who actually agrees with some of these decisions, I'm sitting here thinking like, yeah, but what about free speech? What about the constitution? Do I have to accept some defeats on conservative issues if it means core civil liberties survive? Probably. In which case I am definitely leaning towards Trump. But come on, man. Look, let's say in a few months Trump just spins out of control and just fizzles out or whatever. I don't
Starting point is 01:45:49 know. I really have no idea. I doubt that. I need to see something. I've seen horrifying things on the part of the Democrats, and I have no interest in them at this point. But if I'm going to support someone, then it's got to be a big hard push. Because of the horrifying nature that is Joe Biden and the Democrats and the left, I already said like i'm definitely leaning towards trump if nothing if nothing changes what so i just realized and i want to set the record straight because i'm pretty sure chat has already noticed this but kennedy retired in 2018 oh he's the wrong guy okay so kavanaugh replaced kennedy clarence thomas is considering retirement and that would be a huge problem for Republicans like huge because he was one of the descending
Starting point is 01:46:28 voices in this last decision like he takes his conservatism seriously in the Supreme Court so that's something that they should be really aware of like seriously aware of yeah man I don't know these are big issues man so I guess
Starting point is 01:46:43 if nothing changes i'll probably end up voting for trump you know but but it's it's not definitive and i would never make it definitive i mean you did right i did probably i i don't know man i regret nothing maybe maybe come november 1st trump is horribly burned trying to save a bag of puppies from a burning building and he risks everything for them and i'm like wow man yeah yeah people want to re-at me instead of trying to actually talk to me logically it's like i am give me give me a reason to vote for anyone else give me give me you know talk to me talk to me don't don't scream at me and tell me you don't know me and i'm racist now because of who i'm voting for it's like why don't you have a conversation with me tell me why you're voting for someone else why they're better why trump is bad talk to me
Starting point is 01:47:29 talk to me because you're not talking to me you're just running away from me how many how many people do you think there are in the good spirit of america that will do the opposite of what you try and force them to do like you come to them and say i demand you vote biden they go oh yeah trump probably a lot dude i, I got to say. People don't like being told what to do. I certainly don't. Americans do. Really don't.
Starting point is 01:47:49 I'm very American in that sense. This country is literally founded on you can't tell me what to do. Don't tread on me. Yeah, exactly. Well, here's a big a big super chat from Grim Pickens. Appreciate you. It says, hey, Boog Boys, where y'all at? Y'all talk about defending the country from tyrannical forces,
Starting point is 01:48:05 but where are you when sections of cities are taken by force, people assaulted, communities destroyed? You claim to stand ready when tyranny rears its head. Well, it's here. Where you at? That's a fairly large super chat. I just wanted to read that out. No, I don't think people should go out and confront these autonomous zones.
Starting point is 01:48:23 Not at all. Yeah, I'm indifferent about't think people should go out and confront these autonomous zones. Not at all. Yeah. I'm indifferent about it because I at the same time, it's like they're trying to undermine what we are. But at the same time, it's like, you know, the government has is supporting it, you know, that they voted in. Well, you know, what what do people do then? What should people do stay in their homes? Like you're you're the forerunner of telling people to get up and do something about stuff. Well, hold on.
Starting point is 01:48:48 Let's break it all down. First, you should not go out and confront the autonomous zones because that will lead to rapid, insane escalation. And that's what they are hoping happens. That's true. The left wants that. That's true. They want that. I think there is a fair point in saying Trump didn't take the bait.
Starting point is 01:49:02 The local governments need to deal with this. And if they don't, regular will will start making their demands heard and so you know if this if this goes on for too long and it comes to the point where the government falls then it's the duty of you know patriots whatever to defend our constitution and our laws and law and order okay and help support the the you know to an extent the police and law enforcement trump will enact the insurrection act and the federal government will come in the last thing i think anyone needs is for people to be like i'm gonna go fight no no no we don't want that now as it pertains to statues if you want to peacefully protest i think that's a good thing and i think if you want to if
Starting point is 01:49:38 you want to like you know that woman who went out we talked about this yeah i think she's like a small jewish woman was yelling at these far lefties yeah like she she went out there and she voiced she expressed herself that what the point i'm trying to make when i say defend yourself is that you cannot be the silent majority you must be the vocal majority you must tell just say the words this is what we will not stand for yep yeah man i'm worried that it's it because the vocal majority doesn't stand up you're gonna get you're gonna get people who say I better take matters into my own hands. And that's what the left is waiting for. So they can go, help, help. I'm being repressed. Yeah, good point. It's debate. It's with Trump. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:50:13 As soon as Trump comes out with the tanks, they're going to be like, ah, see proof. And they're going to show videos. And you know what they're going to do? They're going to show the video side by side with World War Two footage and be like, it's happening all over. So Trump didn't do it. Now, to be fair on what i was saying about trump making definitive actions i think with the doj and the task force he is but i think there are questions around does it matter if he gets re-elected should he just do what he has to do to fix these things it is fair to point out the states have a responsibility first and foremost that they made it very clear when he was like why are the states not opening up like you guys should open up and they're like don't tell us what to do we're americans so we're just talking about and it's like okay fine i won't
Starting point is 01:50:52 tell you what to do and they're like well we're gonna burn it all down what are you gonna do about it huh trump it's like absolutely nothing i'm gonna watch you burn your your cities down and feel bad for your the the people that live there like you're you're a terrible mayor well so check it out grim Grim followed up. He said, not a call to violence, but I'm tired of seeing all the posturing. They're out there forcing their ideas on the rest of the country while we sit around and talk about how horrible things are. When is enough enough?
Starting point is 01:51:16 Tim, Adam Lidd, love the show. A real light in the dark. Thank you. Enough has been enough a long time ago. The issue is that people won't cancel Netflix. People won't cancel Amazon. They won't cancel the New York Times. They won't do it.
Starting point is 01:51:29 Man, I'll tell you this. They don't want to let go of their comfort zone. The ACLU used to defend free speech. Do you know that? They actually defended the Klan marching through Skokie, Illinois. It's a big famous moment. Wow. So the ACLU fought against Donald Trump's travel moratorium, saying it was unconstitutional.
Starting point is 01:51:46 All of a sudden, they found themselves with an influx of new subscribers from the left. They loved the money. Then they defended Charlottesville. They said they have a right to free speech. And the left freaked out. And they started canceling their subscriptions. So the ACLU panicked because they were losing money and said, we will do anything you say. They dropped to their knees and said, please, please just give us your money.
Starting point is 01:52:07 And now they've bent over. And ACLU is a far left fringe organization that supports discrimination and opposes civil rights. Yeah, it's ridiculous. So if you, I guess here's the main issue, man. If regular people do not, look, I'm not going to name these organizations, but there, there are groups that sign people up and say, we will send you an email. And then when we decide there's a campaign, we'll send out a mass email. We want you to email these companies. So it'll be like this.
Starting point is 01:52:35 Everybody sign up for this list. Then one day you'll get an email from, you know, activist left dot whatever saying today we're going to all send an angry complaint to the MyPillow guy because he sponsors Tucker Carlson. How dare you? So a better example would be T-Mobile, because T-Mobile, I think it was T-Mobile who dropped their Fox ads. Okay.
Starting point is 01:52:54 So all of a sudden, 10,000 people on an email, let's get an email, saying, everybody at your earliest convenience, email T-Mobile saying you're upset they're advertising with Tucker Carlson. All of a sudden, T-Mobile gets an influx of thousands of emails saying, I can't believe you would do this. This is gross. And T-Mobile says, well, okay, we're canceling. We're canceling.
Starting point is 01:53:12 And it works. Conservatives don't do that. It's true. I was doing a, I'll try to keep this vague, but there was an event I was putting on, and some of the people I was working with were getting brigaded by the far left, demanding that they cancel us and stop working with us. And so I actually had to listen in on one of the phone calls. And this is what the activists do. They send out their big email list saying, here's your talking points. Here's what you need to say. And so quite literally, this guy calls and says,
Starting point is 01:53:39 I'm really upset that you're hosting a white supremacist organization. And then this other person was like, where do you live? And the guy goes, well, San Francisco. And they're like, uh-huh. So you're never going to come here. You're not a customer. You'll never be a customer. Why are you calling me? Well, I think it's just wrong that you're doing it. Okay. Well, as you're not a customer, I have no obligation to, so I appreciate your concern. Have a nice day. Good. Perfect. But think about how many businesses just panic. What do I do? Oh, God. Conservatives don't do these things.
Starting point is 01:54:11 So they sit back and they're comfortable and they wave little American flags and they cheer for Tucker Carlson. But they're not active. They're not protesting. They're not organizing. And the left knows how to organize. So they win. They always do. And they use young people's, you know, zealotry.
Starting point is 01:54:26 These young people who think they're smarter and better, who've seen the light, and they're really dumb and naive, but they're bored, so they'll send an email. They'll do a TikTok, and that's what... They won't vote, but they will send an email. So conservatives gotta learn how to organize, man. Maybe we should do that. Maybe they should get on it. Well, other people, you've heard it right there. That's a tactic they use.
Starting point is 01:54:43 Look, we got 32,000 people listening right now. Imagine if somebody Look, we got 32,000 people listening right now. Imagine if somebody said, hey, 32,000 people, when we send an email, you know, we want you to email your complaints to this company. Take five minutes to do it. Oh, that was a perfect opportunity to smash the like button. Oh, yeah. We got 32,000 people right
Starting point is 01:54:58 now. What if someone just came up to them and said, smash the like button? Well, here's a good point. Sorry, I had to. No, no, no. Here's a good point. We had 36,000 people, only 13,000 likes. But listen, I know. I'm out of here. But think about it. How many people are listening but can't even just tap
Starting point is 01:55:13 the screen? And I don't mean to be disrespectful. I'm pointing out that no matter what you say, no matter what you ask someone to do, there's a lot of people who will be like, whatever. Don't tell me what to do. I'm American. But think about this. Out of the 36,000 people who tuned in and we only got around
Starting point is 01:55:29 50, oh man, like what? 40, 35, 40% to actually press the button. That's a lot of likes. I'm very happy. I'm proud. Thank you, everybody. You guys are fantastic. Think about voting. How many people are willing to listen and be like, oh yeah, yeah. I hear you. Those are problems. And then come election to listen and be like, oh, yeah, yeah, I hear you.
Starting point is 01:55:45 Those are problems. And then come election day, they're like, meh. A lot of people. I'm sure. Yeah, you're right. So here's your first challenge. I'm kidding about liking. I'm not trying to say that you need to.
Starting point is 01:55:54 I am not joking. You smash that like button. Smash it. Listen, listen. It's an issue of people saying, I don't need to do it. I'm good. Woosa. I don't need to do it.
Starting point is 01:56:03 Right, right, right. Someone else will do it. Someone else is obviously Woosa. I don't need to do it. Right, right, right. Someone else will do it. Right. Someone else is obviously smashing the like button. So here's the issue. If everybody who watched, every single time they came in hit the like button, then YouTube would probably start promoting this channel to an insane degree. Smash that like button.
Starting point is 01:56:20 But that's why we say it. Smash it, smash it, smash it, smash it. And to be completely serious, it does boost your standings. Well, I appreciate it. It does. I'll take this moment to say I appreciate you all for liking us. This is why we've made it a bit where Adam's like, you know, smash it. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Starting point is 01:56:35 It's really fun. I made it a bit. That's right. I took it and I ran with it. It's mine. It's all yours. That's right. But that's why I also say the notification bell.
Starting point is 01:56:43 That's why so many YouTubers say this. So, look, you don't have to do anything you don't want to do. The point is, do people really want to? You want to challenge Hulu, right? So Hulu once put out a social justice message, and they got brigaded by conservatives, and they deleted it and apologized. Wow. I don't know to what extent they apologized, but they deleted it, and it was hilarious. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:57:02 Because the conservatives don't normally actually do this. it's rare that they win these culture war battles and that's why all of these companies came out and started putting out these social justice messages because there are organizations that's literally all they do they're they're purposely built to just say there's there's an extension on youtube that's an Antifa extension that all it does is aggregate right-wing channels so that left-wingers can just click a button and it automatically flags for hate speech. Wow.
Starting point is 01:57:32 Yep. They build these things specifically and you wonder why people get banned when they do. Because YouTube is looking at the reports and like, wow, look at all these reports. People on YouTube must not like this stuff. Yeah. So here's the funny thing.
Starting point is 01:57:45 On YouTube, you can actually report someone for hate speech, but you can't report someone for good speech, right? Mm-hmm. So think about what happens. Only negative, yeah. All of the people who like the video can't flag it for liking it. They can give it a thumbs up. But then all YouTube thinks is they must like bigotry.
Starting point is 01:58:01 So I found out that I get a ton of false flags on all of my videos okay they just try whatever they can anything yeah anything they can and then some of the videos get um monetization flags for hate speech and stuff and then i've got to appeal it and when the appeal fails i have to actually contact google so i'm lucky enough to do this and they'll overturn it for me because none of my videos break any of the rules. Right. It's literally milquetoast fence sitting. You're really good at it. It's true. No, I think the issue is that I don't make assertions on my own.
Starting point is 01:58:30 I don't say like, here's what I think about this core issue. Yeah, that's my job. For the most part. So when I talk about freedom and freedom of speech and stuff. Right. But when it comes to, there's a lot of contentious issues that I don't overtly give you my thoughts on. I'll give you my thoughts on. I'll give you my thoughts on the culture war nature of it.
Starting point is 01:58:48 And so that I guess they find acceptable that I'm talking. I don't know. Whatever. But people really do try to get my stuff deleted. There's no way for you to say like this is a good video. This is a good video. So YouTube only sees the negative. And then when all the negative piles up, they just nuke you.
Starting point is 01:59:01 Yeah. The same thing with Twitter. One of the reasons why so many conservatives get banned and conservatives, I guess, don't realize this is that the left brigades their posts. So you'll get an activist account saying, everybody flag this one video for doxing. And then once it gets a certain amount of reports in a certain amount of time,
Starting point is 01:59:18 it's automatically banned. And that's why Twitter so often says it was a mistake. Because their system says if we get too many at once, nuke it. You gotta think, they're probably not working. That's like Twitter so often says it was a mistake. Yeah. Because their system says if we get too many at once, nuke it. Well, and also you got to think like they're probably not working. That's like their jobs is to just be hateful on the Internet. Yeah. And most conservatives are busy working.
Starting point is 01:59:33 Must be nice. They're busy doing their jobs. Productive things. Being productive in society. Bored people. Yeah. Well, you know, it's crazy, though, is that 4chan is a bunch of, you know, bored dudes on the Internet.
Starting point is 01:59:43 Okay. And they've been extremely powerful in their campaigns yeah they have so they have tremendous influence i think the only issue is that now the left lurks there and then exposes you know the far right or whatever i'm gonna do something so it makes it harder to do but i think if if one conservative organization emerged that function like some of these leftist activist organizations, and let's say the Daily Wire has some of the most shares on Facebook. It's one of the biggest. Ben Shapiro is one of the biggest. Imagine if he used the Daily Wire mailing list for activism.
Starting point is 02:00:20 Everything would bend over backwards for the right in two seconds. Interesting. Because Coca-Cola is going to get a bunch of emails from polite customers complaining, saying, hey, we don't respect this. We don't like what you're doing. Coca-Cola is going to be like, oops. Like, whoa. Reminds me of Family Guy. There was the FCC.
Starting point is 02:00:36 I guess Peter Griffin had his own channel. The FCC was like, we got 13 complaints. And as you know, based on Nielsen ratings or whatever, that means 17 billion people are upset. It's like the way they extrapolate data. But yeah, that's it. That's what's missing from a lot of conservatives, the willingness to create that organizational structure for activism. I got another big super chat here from Jacob Scott. He says, guys, if your reasoning for voting for Trump is the lesser of two evils, look at the third parties.
Starting point is 02:01:05 JoJo is everything you want in civil liberties sure She doesn't doesn't support government's actions in areas some would want but I'll take that over to crazy old men Love you guys vote Jojo. No, I I like Some of the things Trump or Trump is doing like I didn't understand it first I was influenced by certain people around me when I did check on Facebook, which I'm now learning is a cesspool of misinformation. It's like, I mean, I'm hearing what he's saying. I'm seeing what he's doing.
Starting point is 02:01:34 It's like I want manufacturing back here. I want fast fashion, fast products that we buy from China. I want to go back to when it was quality stuff that you would fix you and you would have one knife for your entire life. Sharpen it. And you would sharpen it and you would fix it when it broke. And I want that to apply to every product in life. Like we got to stop this throwaway culture.
Starting point is 02:01:59 And it's like, that's because we buy from China who just dumps cheap stuff on us. And it's like, I get that. I want that. And Trump is advocating for that. And that's one of the biggest things. It's like, yes, I didn't like his environmental issues. But it turns out we can't manufacture that kind of stuff because over in the countries that are being manufactured, they have zero environmental issues. They don't care.
Starting point is 02:02:19 They're pumping stuff into the air. So for us to manufacture it, it's got to come back a little bit. It's like, OK, you know what? I'll give in a little bit to make this future happen that I see as a good thing for America. I got two principal reasons for voting for Donald Trump if it comes to it. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 02:02:35 The first is the risk of a Joe Biden presidency. He's out of his mind. Absolutely agree. And the Democrats are just feckless and bending the knee to an insane fanaticism. And that worries me, which means, you know, voting third party does in the way we have a first past the post system create, you know, it it takes away the opportunity to actually stop whatever that is.
Starting point is 02:02:58 So that's why I would lean towards Trump. Yeah, not on a lot of issues. The other reason is Trump is the bull raiding the ivory tower. It's true. And so regardless of anything Trump might do, if in the end, all I really get is an orange bull romping around and kicking vases over while the ivory tower elite of the Democrats are fanning themselves going, oh, a rumf, there's a bull. And then he chases them out. And then after Trump, we can actually maybe get some real politicians in some moderate center center right center left you know real debate professional
Starting point is 02:03:31 but away from the crony establishment broken politics of the do nothing era yep and maybe that requires the bull to rampage about for a little bit that's about it here that's about it so it's not about whether you know you like his policy or whether I like his policies or not. That's a lot of what comes down to. So if you add in a couple more big moves that he could make and things he could do at the end of the year, I probably would end up voting for him. But we'll see. We'll see. I'm not going to sit here and pretend like I know everything. So we got another super chat here from Bruce. He says this shooting in Provo is going to light everyone up. They're going further south and they're going more rural.
Starting point is 02:04:05 I live half an hour away and work 10 minutes away from Provo and heard what people have said. If these people choose to bite after their barking, this could end bad. That's what I've been saying. Yeah, you go to these more religious communities. I mean, look at what happened in St. Louis.
Starting point is 02:04:22 That was a closed community. They're going to piss off the wrong people and there's going to be a lot of deaths. I'm thinking about what happens when they piss off some of what happened in St. Louis. That was a closed community. They're going to piss off the wrong people. And there's going to be a lot of deaths. I'm thinking about what happens when they piss off some of the gangs in Chicago. Yep. You're absolutely right. What people got to understand about Chicago is that if these people go into the wrong neighborhood and the cops show up, they're going to be like, why are you bringing the cops into our neighborhood? Exactly.
Starting point is 02:04:41 And they're going to be like, nope. Dude, people don't understand what Chicago is like. They don't understand that a 12-year-old kid will walk up with a gun and just murder you randomly for no reason. Yeah, they don't call it
Starting point is 02:04:50 Chirac for nothing. Sounds like a great place. I got stories, man. Yeah, me too. The gang, yeah, man. Both of us, it's interesting how we both kind of
Starting point is 02:04:59 had our run in Chicago. Dude, Chicago is a serious place. Not somewhere I want to go back to. That's what pisses me off. These people, they have no idea how good it is here. They have no clue. How bad it could be.
Starting point is 02:05:17 We got a chat here from... How bad it is in many places. Josh gives us a big old super chat and he says, Show us your beautiful hair, Tim. No beanies for an episode. There's a nice anti-facial recognition bill. Interesting. There's a number. He said
Starting point is 02:05:31 500,000. No, no, no. It's 500 grand. It's gone way up. It's officially gone. It's a double. Whoa, 6.25. Where'd you come with that one? My head. 100,000 likes. 100,000 likes for a hair reveal. Yeah. 100,000 likes. 100,000 likes for a hair reveal. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:05:47 Yes. 100,000 likes. On a live stream? Yeah. I don't think it's possible. Yeah. We can try. We just need to announce it the whole time.
Starting point is 02:05:55 It would mean we need 100,000 concurrent live viewers. We should do it. We should try it. We should put signs. 100,000 likes for a hair reveal. Don't be scared. That would mean we would probably need 300 plus thousand live viewers. Who knows, man?
Starting point is 02:06:09 You think we'll get there? No. I do. I'm confident. All right. I don't know. All right, let's see. Maybe we'll grab a couple more of these super chats.
Starting point is 02:06:17 100,000 likes. You guys heard that. Don't forget it. Ethnic Coleslaw says, give the game Death Stranding a try. The story is close to reality. Social media terrorists and reconnecting the country after a crisis. You're Norman Reedus. Also, have you seen the recent increase in properitarianism posts on Twitter?
Starting point is 02:06:35 I know, but someone mentioned that. I don't know what that is. What is that? I haven't looked that up. I don't know, but Death Stranding just looks so boring. It just looks so boring. Someone said that it was get all the groceries into the house
Starting point is 02:06:46 in one go simulator. That sounds like fun. That makes it even more boring. I totally agree. That's the point. I get enough of running around with Assassin's Creed Origins. I can't even do it anymore.
Starting point is 02:06:57 It's just getting too monotonous. So Tracy Nolan says, today the Queen spoke to President Trump by telephone from Windsor Castle ahead of Independence Day in the United States on the 4th of July. Interesting. Mike says, For a good laugh, check out GitHub's virtue signaling.
Starting point is 02:07:12 Google it. GitHub is removing. There's a programming. There's words in programming called master and slave. Whoa. So they're gone. Wow. Really?
Starting point is 02:07:21 Wow. I think I remember that. I think they changed it to parent and child or something. My dad talks about that. That's so dumb. Long time ago. Wow, really? Wow. I think I remember that. I think they changed it to parent and child or something. My dad talks about that, yeah. That's so dumb. Long time ago. They're getting rid of the word master from a bunch of different industries or whatever.
Starting point is 02:07:30 Master bedroom. Master carpenter. Master's degree. Master degree. Master's degree. The thing you work for. Yep. There we go.
Starting point is 02:07:39 Welcome to. See, this is my issue with all these things that they're doing. They're making it all racist. They're taking all these things and making them racist. They're like, this is racist. Hold on. Did you see that they got rid of the monkey mascot from some cereal? What? Cocoa Puffs?
Starting point is 02:07:55 No, no, no. It's like Australia or something or New Zealand. I don't know. Cocoa Puffs isn't the vampire. What? We're not talking about Cocoa Puffs. There's some cereal or whatever in a foreign country where their mascot is a monkey okay i said they were removing it because of its racist racist connotations what and so the meme is the white person screaming that monkeys remind them of minority groups that's racist it is they are making it racist oh my gosh listen who benefits the most from saying these things and from moving it's ridiculous cultural icons
Starting point is 02:08:24 from products. I'm going to say it right now. They got rid of Uncle Ben, but we keep Mr. Clean. I don't get it. Racists. They're racists. What the heck? Racists, yo. We have Chef Boyardee, but no Uncle Ben?
Starting point is 02:08:39 It's funny, but there is a movement from Italians that are like, well, then we got to we want Chef Boyardee banned. It is offensive. from Italians. They're like, well, then we want Chepoerdi banned. It is offensive. I mean, they're all laughing about it because it's a joke to them. They're like, this is ridiculous. They're making all these things racist. Quaker oats.
Starting point is 02:08:54 Quaker oats. A leprechaun. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. That's very much a stereotype. Lucky charms. I'm offended. They're not getting rid of any.
Starting point is 02:09:02 Are you Irish? I'm like largely Irish, yeah. Where's PETA to complain about tricks? Or Honey Nut Cheerios, the bumblebee. Bees are being decimated right now with colony collapse disorder or whatever. This is so insensitive. But the only characters they get rid of are minority characters. It's like erasure.
Starting point is 02:09:20 It's crazy, yeah. Yeah, it's creepy, man. It really is. Nate Weber says, right-leaning vet here but enjoy a moderate left keep it up also i uh i kind of if the goal is trump what is this and they continue the current situations to follow the cloward pivot strategy to grab at power thoughts i'm not sure i understand what you're trying to ask unfortunately same sorry i don't know let's see we were that one okay saint mile says tim you need to tell people they need to train and practice my classmate stan cook proved that even a 9mm will be effective against an AK-47.
Starting point is 02:09:50 Train and practice. Safe handling. Don't wait until the boogaloo. Practice. Absolutely. That's what I said. You've got to be training. Go to the range.
Starting point is 02:09:57 Get training. Get someone to teach you how to do it. Definitely. We saw the couple in St. Louis. Clearly had no idea what they were doing. Would not be particularly effective. You know, the thing is, is you can practice, but having, being in the environment where you have adrenaline pumping,
Starting point is 02:10:12 you know, it's like practice all day long. You have to understand that when it actually happens, you're going to get a shot of adrenaline. And I don't know how to, you're going to have to like figure out a way to know that too, because how do you practice that? You actually went to do some training. But was your adrenaline pumping that time?
Starting point is 02:10:29 Because you knew it wasn't real. The heat training? Yeah, the heat training. Kind of, because it's not the same, though. I know. You're not getting gun training. It's a little different. But you don't know what you expect.
Starting point is 02:10:39 So you're like, you know how you watch movies and they do jump scares? Yeah. On high alert. Right. So when you're doing the heat training, you're sitting there waiting for something at any moment. So you are getting antsy and getting a little anxious. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:10:51 But it's way different when you're actually in the field. Yeah. And you hear a pop and you're like... Right. You know? So I remember one time when I came back from somewhere. I can't remember where. And maybe Egypt or something.
Starting point is 02:11:03 And I'm walking down. What's that really long street that goes through Brooklyn with the train over it? Is it Broadway? Yeah, it is Broadway. And I heard a car backfire. And my adrenaline went boom. No one else cared. No one else noticed because it was a car backfiring.
Starting point is 02:11:18 But it was like a huge pop. And I started laughing. And I was like, oh, man. I've been going on the ground a little bit too much, haven't I? Well, there's gunshots in Brooklyn every so often. So the thing was that I'd been traveling so often to these foreign countries where there's live and, you know, riot weapons that 99% of the pops I was hearing was a weapon. Yeah, actual gunshots. Back in Brooklyn, you know, like back when I hear a pop, it's like my brain says weapon. But so I get an adrenaline spike. And then I saw the car and I was like laughing. I'm like, I'm back and I hear a pop. It's like my brain says weapon. But so I get an adrenaline spike.
Starting point is 02:11:46 And then I saw the car and I was like laughing. I'm like, I actually enjoyed it. I was like, this is hilarious. You know, it's like, I think it's funny. I think it's cool. It's like, yeah, I'm on edge because of the crazy stuff I've been doing. You can't get that, man. No.
Starting point is 02:11:58 Yum. Because there's no way to like, it's the craziest thing about actually training with these weapons. Because no matter how much training you have, you can't prepare for the anxiety you get. And a really way, a better way to explain it is if you've ever, you ever play music or sing or tell jokes or perform, how different it is once you get on stage. Yep, exactly. The most annoying thing in the world to me was when I would do skate competitions, when I would get early, early session jitters.
Starting point is 02:12:23 And I get really angry because I'm like, I know I can do all of these things, and the fact that I'm getting anxious because of a contest is going to make me lose my body. Why are you so dumb? Just let me skate like I normally do, and I'll win. But you get the jitters, you got to get over it, you got to get used to it. And the only way to do it is to actually skate in contests and get comfortable and get used to it while everyone's watching. It's true. All right, so let's see. Where do we go? Okay, we've got a couple here.
Starting point is 02:12:47 Nate Weber says, sorry, drinking scotch. Ooh. I wonder if the goal is Trump to continue the current situation but escalated in order to promote the Cloward-Piven strategy. Thoughts on the Cloward-Piven strategy? I don't know what it is. Can you look that up, Lydia? I did look it up.
Starting point is 02:13:00 Oh, what is that? Do we have time to talk about it a little bit? Yeah, what is it? Okay, so Cliff's notes is that it Do we have time to talk about it a little bit? What is it? Okay, so the CliffsNotes is that it is a political strategy outlined in 1966 by American sociologists and political activists, Cloward and Piven. They called for overloading the U.S. public welfare system in order to precipitate a crisis that would lead to a replacement of the welfare system with a guaranteed annual income and end poverty. You can't end poverty.
Starting point is 02:13:23 Yeah, good luck with that. Poverty is relative. If a poor person today has a refrigerator and air conditioning, how do you compare that to a poor person? How do you compare that to Rockefeller? You know what I mean? So look, I got it. Some poor people are homeless.
Starting point is 02:13:35 But you take the average person in poverty in the US, and they have medical debt, but they've also gotten treatments for diseases that would have killed you in the 1900s. Right, they got shots that prevented them. Poverty is all relative. No matter what happens no matter what we give someone poverty will always exist there's always going to be someone that doesn't want to work that's just simply lazy that's true it doesn't matter what their upbringing is they don't they
Starting point is 02:14:00 just won't want to do the work and the easiest way to get stuff is to blame the system and say it's not fair. And that's what we're seeing right now. I'll tell you what's going to happen. It's going to be 100 years, and there's going to be poor people who are immortal with perfect health care. They're cured of all diseases. They have free food. They can fly around in jetpacks.
Starting point is 02:14:23 They have implants that allows a lot of them to have telekinesis, and they're complaining that they don't get interdimensional travel. And they're like, it's not fair that we're impoverished. The rich people can travel to any planet in the known federation. It's not fair. We need to end poverty. Hey! Cat fight.
Starting point is 02:14:35 Literal cat fight. Oh yeah, they're going nuts over there. No, they're playing as cats. Oh no, she straight up bit him. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:14:42 And he was like trying to get her off. Ah, they do that all the time. They're cats. All right, let's carry on. What do we got? Yeah, yeah. The Lucky Josh says,
Starting point is 02:14:51 Adrenaline is why you effing practice. Yep. Practice. Blue Saber says, There are stories of cops who fire their gun in the heat of the moment with adrenaline pumping and they pull the trigger but don't feel or hear the gun go off. So they pull the trigger more thinking it is defective.
Starting point is 02:15:06 Spin that UFO. That's what I'm saying, man. I'll spin it for you. I'm going to ask you guys for a favor, man. We're really close to 20k likes. Can we pull that off? 20,000 likes? Let's do it. You have something to say, Adam? Adam has something to say.
Starting point is 02:15:20 Because I don't want to leave because we're so close. Smash it! You better smash that like button. You better smash that like button. Smash that like button. Come on. We got 19K.
Starting point is 02:15:30 Come on. We're almost there. We're so close. We're going to break 20,000. I would be so happy. It's 2020. Let's do the 20K. Come on.
Starting point is 02:15:37 Perfect. Let's do it. Come on. 20. Smash the like button. Smash it. Smash. I'm not done.
Starting point is 02:15:42 I'm not done. Smash. Okay. All right. All right. First last says, you mentioned that it. I'm not, smash. Okay. All right, all right. First last says, you mentioned that it could take one conservative commentator
Starting point is 02:15:48 to get conservatives to engage in cancel culture against left-biased companies. Who would be the most likely individuals to engage in this boycott slash cancel culture? I don't know, man. I think, you know,
Starting point is 02:15:58 I'm definitely not the person because I'm too, you know, fancy. Yeah, the problem is, it's like what I kind of said earlier. It's like the people on the right are working. They is it's like what i kind of said earlier it's like the people on the right are working they're busy they they're doing they have they're you know they have a plan they've thought about it they see the future and they're like i'm working towards this
Starting point is 02:16:13 this is my future what are these people doing what are you guys doing over there they're like well we're just screaming at everything that pisses us off and it's like that's literally what they've made their job but listen if you have 30 seconds okay to click forward five seconds to click forward okay then you win whoa holy cow we hit 20k 21k likes seriously i i am i'm taking this personal all right it's adam's job that's right he must say smash the like button in his job description i'm i'm gonna cry okay but let's let's say we don't we've gone a bit over and i just the other day i was like we can't go over anymore i talked to your voice but um you do talk too much i'm glad you you admit it
Starting point is 02:16:57 if ben shapiro if crowder not only that if any one of you listening just created an email list and said share this email list with everybody and then when when something happens we're going to send an email to company saying don't do this you would win let's do it right has no group like that i'm not gonna i'm not gonna do it hey you can do it hey everybody i know there's a lot of you out there that are sick of this that's going on right now what's stopping us what's stopping you what you know tim said it takes takes 30 seconds so here's here's how it would work you have an email list of everyone's email addresses then you see a company like netflix say we're gonna ban this movie then you email the entire list saying hey everybody email netflix and say don't ban this
Starting point is 02:17:40 movie and then email gets influx of 50 000 emails saying don't ban this movie guess what netflix is gonna do not ban that they're gonna be like we don't want to lose 50 000 customers yeah just don't ban the movie boom but the right doesn't do anything like that it's not even about the right it's about people opposing censorship they just sit back and they go like that's awful myself included i'm not i'm not like i'm free from this would you would you join it if someone did create it i have absolutely expressed my outrage at many companies when they've done this. No, that's not my question. I'm saying yes.
Starting point is 02:18:10 I've already done it with or without someone asking me to. I always hit up these companies. 22! Verizon recently announced that they're joining a boycott of Facebook over hate speech. Wow, Verizon is. So I contacted Verizon and I said,
Starting point is 02:18:27 listen, I use you guys and I'm expanding my business and this is a problem for me. I do not want you to support this. And they said, your complaint is duly noted. Okay. Fantastic. That's about it. Now, what happens when 50,000 people all say the same thing?
Starting point is 02:18:42 Verizon backs off, mission accomplished. I'm about to hit Verizon up. Seriously, yeah. And let them know that you don't like the fact that they're engaging in this cancel culture stuff of Facebook and say it is not your place to pressure a rival company and engage in some weird third-party tortious interference type issue because you don't like how they run their business.
Starting point is 02:19:00 No doubt. Because activists hit you up and ask you to get political. You're now negatively impacting my life and my business and I'm a customer. I'm not happy about that, Verizon. So if everybody just emailed Verizon and said hey, don't do this, Verizon would be like, we're not gonna. Nobody told me to do it. Nobody said, hey Tim,
Starting point is 02:19:17 I saw the news and I was like, we're trying to set up Verizon for the new spot we're building. And I'm like, and now I have to deal with this? In space. No. What happens if Verizon convinces Facebook to ban all this and then my page gets banned? I'm not going to pay Verizon to effectively destroy my business.
Starting point is 02:19:35 That's a good point. Verizon, get out of the politics game. I use them for mobile as well. So the last thing I want is them to do this. So for now, I'm going to complain. I'm complaining. Yep. Because you're threatening my company with your stupid politics.
Starting point is 02:19:50 Why is there no conservative organization that does this? Because conservatives aren't organized in this way. They take political victories and they clap about how they got 200 plus judges in. Meanwhile, the culture is being overrun and politics is downstream from culture. So you might get those judges and then great. In 50 years, you
Starting point is 02:20:05 still lost. Anyway, we've gone on a bit too long, my friends. You don't want to risk your voice, man. Come on now. No, especially because it's still a little sore. When you get all revved up too, you're like, oh man. It's good. It's great seeing you. It's fine as long as I'm not singing on top of my lungs
