Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to our special weekend show, Sunday Uncensored. Every week we produce four uncensored episodes of the TimCast IRL podcast exclusively at TimCast.com and we're going to bring you the most important for our weekend show. If you want to check out more segments just like this, become a member at TimCast.com. Now enjoy the show. So they say that they were controlling the show. Well, how do you do it? Do your people use the gold that you've hoarded to disperse particulates into the air, which can shift the direction of the wind? So first we organize something called a minyan. We need 10 grown Jewish, 10 bar mitzvahed men, and then we pray in temple together for the demise of the Gentiles. I'm joking.
Starting point is 00:01:04 How many times have you taken part in that? I feel like I'm nervous even joking about this, like being cut up in a flattering way. You don't want to be our token Jewish person tonight to answer these questions? Token neocon, token Jew. Senior Jewish Affairs Correspondent is my preferred title. So you asked for this.
Starting point is 00:01:21 You are a Jewish Affairs Correspondent. You won't comment on what the people are up to I don't want to give you guys the scoop. What was it? Look at my Twitter Let's put the space lasers not involved. There's no space laser in the weather control Is that like a separate thing you guys do it look at my tweet People who think it's the government can do it you find it Great. No, we're okay crazy. I make one post saying I'm Israel Chai and boom, just like that, front page of YouTube.
Starting point is 00:01:48 I didn't fathom that angle because YouTube is so very pro-Israel. Are they really? No, I don't... So, for those that are listening, I tweeted crazy, I make one post saying I'm Israel Chai and boom, just like that, front page of YouTube and I showed a
Starting point is 00:02:04 screenshot of it and I'm joking, of. And boom, just like that front page of YouTube. And I showed a screenshot of it. And I'm joking, of course. But it's funny because I'm also trolling the people who hate Israel. They're going to be like, we know it. It's bruising. So anyway, we have these retards in the corporate press. Right-wing influencers claim they defeated physics, geoengineered Hurricane Milton. Dude, what the fuck does it mean to
Starting point is 00:02:25 defeat physics? My guy. I'm sorry, my lady. Okay, I don't know if I can express myself in words that she would understand, but I will try. When we created the heavier than air flying machine, many said that we have defeated physics. Just because we figure out how to make things do things doesn't mean physics doesn't exist. Now, I don't believe that there is a secret cabal
Starting point is 00:02:53 of Democrats or CIA, whoever, World Economic Forum controlling the weather. But it is funny that they're getting so bent out of shape about this. So we did talk about it the other day, but I actually want to talk about it with a lot as well. And I thought it was a fun conversation anyway. And Tor, do you think that they can control the weather?
Starting point is 00:03:15 And by they, I mean powerful interests, governments, and militaries. I haven't seen it, but I don't think it's outside the realm of possibility. But, you know, I mean, somebody was telling me, somebody was telling me today or the other day that in Vietnam, they were, the military was like staging storms. Yeah. And to flood out the Viet Cong. You know, I haven't seen it, but like, I don't.
Starting point is 00:03:48 I swear that person was watching our show last night because we were talking about it. Yeah, I don't I don't know. I mean, what's this Operation Popeye? It does seem sort of ridiculous that no one would have looked into how to influence weather. Like they're always talking about the climate crisis and these things are bad. And just everyone was like, but we won't come up with any way to sort of see if we can deter storms from forming or anything like the possibility that no one has been thinking about this it seems seems ridiculous to me so therefore wouldn't someone have figured a way to influence
Starting point is 00:04:15 some kind of uh impact and weather so the republicans currently have an eight seat majority in the house can you imagine mike johnson struggling to keep all the republicans on brand i can only lose a handful of votes or my bills go to shit and then it's just like okay what what's the next big news issue that we're worried about what's in the news cycle right now make me struggle to pass my agenda and it's just like well at the top of the news reel is just um marjorie taylor green just talking random shit just like oh you the top of the news reel is just Marjorie Taylor Greene just talking random shit just like oh you don't think he's grateful for this because I think he would be like
Starting point is 00:04:50 yeah you go out there and distract him and then we're gonna be here passing all kinds of weird things like look over there no I think Henneke is right he's like we need them to be distracted with bullshit because we're gonna pass some massive spending package for Israel and then she's like you got it it. Space lasers and weather control. And the media is like,
Starting point is 00:05:08 look over there. And then he's like, all right, sign it quick. Just a huge psyop. It's funny because I was actually mentioning this to Hannah Clare before the show. One of the most interesting dramas in this political cycle, at least to me, has been the beef between Marjorie Taylor Greene and Laura Loomer. They've kind of been beefing for Donald Trump's fave female spot, biggest sycophant. And Marjorie Taylor Greene has been very insecure about how much better of a cheerleader Laura Loomer has been for him than she has. And allegedly sunk Laura Loomer's opportunity to work in the Trump campaign because Marjorie Taylor Greene was talking a lot of crap about her to him. So I thought that was my.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Wow. I could not care less. Well, I mean, what's Laura Loomer's position on weather control? That's. She controls it. Let's return to the most important point. She controls the weather. She's Jewish, right?
Starting point is 00:06:01 Yeah, exactly. Her and Elad, they get together and collaborate. Loomer's a Florida resident from what I understand. I mean, that seems like a risky move right now. She's being subversive. You'd never suspect it were her in Florida. That's why when we planned it, we were like, hit Florida, the goyim would never
Starting point is 00:06:18 suspect it. Right, I get you. I totally see it now. It is like if you were committing robberies on your block, you would also rob your own house. So therefore, you wouldn't be a suspect. You would always be a victim. They could show up.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Oh, what happened to my house? You guys too? Who did this? And then where's Kamala at on the weather control? She's controlling it when it's expedient, and she's not. Her husband is invited to influence the weather. Oh, that's right. That's right.
Starting point is 00:06:44 That's her husband. That's right. That's her husband. That's right. She's in on it. That's how you get the... I feel like he's trying to take her campaign then because she's not doing well with the hurricane response narrative here. I mean, she's not coming across as sympathetic. She's not coming across as, you know, an effective vice president.
Starting point is 00:06:59 She's sort of floundering in all angles. So maybe Doug just doesn't want her to be, you know, he's tired of time in Washington. He wants to go back to California. I don't know if you guys saw, but Trump actually went to go visit the weatherman yesterday where he tried to lobby them for better weather. Trump visited the gravesite of a very influential rabbi,
Starting point is 00:07:22 leader of the Chabad movement yesterday that has caused the consternation of many people with Israel derangement syndrome. So he's doing whatever he can to stop the hurricane is what you're telling me. Yes, he's trying. That's very respectful. He was lobbying the weather people. Hey, please do what you can. I know. And meanwhile, Kamala Harris may or may not have a direct line and she seems to not be using it.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Not be utilizing it. That's why you should support Trump failing on this. There was an op ed in Fox that I mentioned this to a lot before the show, but that they this person was arguing that, you know, we always we've become prone to anticipate the October surprise. What's going to be in this case? The October surprise is just how bad the hurricane is, like the fact that it wasn't just Helene. Now we're getting Milton. Now Nadine's on its way, that this part of the country is being pummeled and the contrast between how the parties are responding and also how much the people in America feel left behind. In some ways, like this is better. If you can handle it correctly, this is better than an orchestrated sort of media takedown because it's really about the people,
Starting point is 00:08:26 which for Trump is his bread and butter, right? He is the populist candidate. If the October surprise wasn't going to be Jews acting up in the Middle East, it'll be Jews controlling the weather in Florida instead. Oh, you really think everything's about the Jews. That's interesting. Come on. I pay attention to the news on Twitter. So if I need to control the weather, you can hook me up? Well, you'll have to call some people higher up than me, but you know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:08:50 I think you're in on it. Doug Emhoff. Now I just feel like one of those guys listing Jews wherever I could find them just because I'm so familiar with all of them. So I don't want to run down the list of like, oh yeah, Donald Trump could also call his daughter to ask about the weather or his son's law. His daughter, he had to call the son-in-law converted so so she gets does that count uh depends on who you ask yeah you know there's a saying among jews it's like two jews three opinions so it really it really does depend on who you ask well and it's like it's supposed
Starting point is 00:09:20 to be uh important that the the mother's heritage is what's counted, right? But then if she converts, it's like... Does that count? Many people say it's kosher. Depends on who you ask. And then there's levels that you could convert. You could be a reform convert, a conservative convert, an orthodox convert. So then there's a sliding scale.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Like a Costco membership. Yeah, and then different rabbis or different levels of purists about it. I'm sure you guys have equivalents in Christianity where it's—no? No, it's one of the interesting crossovers, and I feel like I can't talk about it without getting canceled in some way. Yeah, I'm keeping my mouth shut, too. I mean, I think with Christianity, there's questions about devoutness, right? But the tracing of the lineage doesn't't exist i will say prophesizing people is frowned upon we don't just jews prophesize people it's like not part of the religion as it
Starting point is 00:10:12 is in christianity and islam so that that dynamic to differ a little bit on that because in new york i get you know around hanukkah and passover i always get packages at my apartment from, I don't know what sect it is, but with the chocolates and everything. And I always eat the chocolates every year. You know, you look a little Jewish. They might be mistaking you for something. I get stopped on the street all the time by those kids.
Starting point is 00:10:35 You could go undercover and see if you could control the weather maybe. I wouldn't mind that. Oh, wait a minute. Yeah. What do we think? Like, is the hurricane season that is not about to end anytime soon going to be what dominates the news cycle up until the election? I think it's going to be Middle East flare up, but that's because I'm anticlimactic. Like I the narrative to me seems like right now is government incompetence on the kind of very needed disaster response, which should not be in any way a partisan issue.
Starting point is 00:11:12 But, you know, I am looking at the vice president going out and doing a bunch of media hits when Appalachia is just devastated. You know, I'm a little bit surprised that they're not paying more attention. You would think that she should just go camp out in some small town to draw attention to it or something like do your podcast weird appearances yourself as a doer and somebody who's going to get this taken care of instead of going doing whatever they'd go daddy.com or whatever she was doing call her daddy but that's even fun call her daddy right which is cool you know whatever cool show I guess I don't know I haven't seen it like more power to you like whatever but like you know Appalachia was devastated right did i miss am i wrong in that like they were devastated and you know whatever the politics is like why aren't they in there
Starting point is 00:12:12 actually what are they doing what are they doing it is kind of crazy especially since they don't actually like it when she does interviews they could just be sending her down with like cartons of canned goods and like doing whatever where you know it would be political theater so i won't put or it would be otherwise but it would be a way to be like hey she's coming in with to hand out meat hot meals and then at least somebody would be handing out hot meals you know what i mean like there is a way to do it where like even if it's not enough it is about what's going on in these devastated communities. Because I know, I understand why the Middle East, what's going on there, the geopolitical tension would be relevant.
Starting point is 00:12:50 But in some cases, like, if you don't have cell service right now, like, you don't care what's going on in the Middle East. You really care about if you're going to be able to get your house back. And so I think in some ways, the fact that it has basically off the like thrown a lot of americans off their normal grid and therefore out of their normal media consumption habits it it doesn't seem like the international conflicts are as pressing as as how am i going to get water is another hurricane coming when am i going to get my remediation team in to see if they can save my house i don't know but kamala harris want to talk about that, so. She doesn't.
Starting point is 00:13:28 What's going on? I've been thinking of nicknames for Kamala Harris, and since she's a woman, I've been thinking of incorporating, like, mom. Skank. Well, that was her thing. Mom-a-la. Mom-a-la.
Starting point is 00:13:40 Kam-a-mi-la. Harris. I thought you were going, like, with insults. No, no. I'm trying to humanize her in a motherly way. In a paternalistic... Wasn't she the brat?
Starting point is 00:13:51 Kamamila? I like Mamila. She was brat. Mamala is what her daughter-in-law calls her. Doug Emhoff's daughter. You're not being mean enough. No, Mamila. If she's elected, she'd be the country's caretaker and i think what the best part is right now is how many people now that they have insisted like you
Starting point is 00:14:13 have to pronounce her name correctly how many people are going out of their way to like mispronounce it in weirder ways like it's not just it's like carmella now like it's just changing that's my favorite i got a new i got a new one. Okay, this is a word. Comma laughter. Comma laughter? When you nervously laugh inappropriately, indicating that you may be under the influence of some kind of substance.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Or just like stressed out at your 60 Minutes interview. She just looked like she was so stressed out. Comma laughter. What is Trump and saying? Comrade Kamala? Yeah, Comrade Kamala. That's not good.
Starting point is 00:14:48 That's not good. That's probably his weakest one. Yeah, Kamala is better. No, I think it's better than Comrade and the fear of communism is so alive in America. Claire, I wanted to ask you. Kamala. What are you teeing me up here for? Kamala Harris is a woman.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Donald Trump's obviously a man. When we talk about Trump, though, we refer to him as Trump, not Donald. But when we refer to Kamala Harris, it's always Kamala. They did that on purpose. That was never Harris. It was their choice. I don't know whose choice it was. It was Harris.
Starting point is 00:15:16 No, no, no, no. Let me stop you there because this is really interesting, actually. The Harris campaign made it a specific choice to run the campaign under Kamala and not Harris, which is very weird because we normally don't do that. And I think it's because Kamala is a unique name and Harris is generic. When I've gone over this with keywords on YouTube, I don't ever put Harris does X because Harris does not resonate with people at all. Kamala, people know what that means.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Harris could be anything. The easiest way to understand it was by choice is Kamala HQ is their Twitter account. They chose to brand her Kamala. Kamala sounds a lot more ethnic than- Kamala. Kamala. You racist. Sounds a lot more ethnic than Harris. Harris, Claire, you look like your last name could be Harris. Exactly. But you don't look like you could be Kamala. Does that line up? Do you know what I'm trying to say?
Starting point is 00:16:10 No, say specifically why I get all of that way. Kamalama Ding Dong. Give a specific description of my person. Harris is like, you know. Other part is like, it makes me think that they are still pursuing this like female pop icon energy for her. Like Beyonce, Madonna. We have lots of one name female artists and it's just the first name um also I think you know they don't want to give her any personality or personal life unless it's just vague glimpses that make her seem human so the
Starting point is 00:16:37 other question is like you know I guess she's been a public figure for a long time she could be Kamala Emhoff right like she's married to this man she could have taken his last name but she's a girl boss so she's sticking with Harris I pretty much always try to refer to her as Harris uh partially because I feel like it's consistent that's how I refer to other candidates but also because her name seems like a trap now that it's like you could maybe mispronounce it and therefore be racist and to be honest i just don't know how it's supposed i know it's kamala now but when she first emerged i was like who is this person um i i don't know that um there was i can't remember what outlet there was an article
Starting point is 00:17:15 right after she announced within the first week where it was like should we refer to her by her last name because that's what we do for men or is it nicer that we refer to her by her first name because it gives her an individuality. No one ever settled this issue and the American public just went with Kamala. How about for a nickname That Dumb Bitch? Doesn't roll off the tongue, I will be honest.
Starting point is 00:17:37 I like saying it though. That Dumb Bitch. I think it's one of the only ways to give her a personality. It's a unique the only ways to give her a personality, right? Like, it's a unique name, and therefore you remember her. If you lined her up with 47 other female politicians, I do not think she's the one that you would walk away remembering. Does she have a middle name? Devi.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Her mom's name is Shamala. That's the best part, that they have rhyming names. Are you serious? No way. And her dad's name is Donald. Donald J. Donald J. Donald J. J Donald J Harris
Starting point is 00:18:05 And what was the Right What was the mom Shamala Oh they're strange She's estranged from her dad Yeah But her mom's name
Starting point is 00:18:11 Is actually Shamala Yep Okay Kamala Shamala Okay I tweeted Kamala Shamala And people were like It's Shamala
Starting point is 00:18:19 You got it wrong And I'm like what That's her mom's name See it's a trap Like you're being asked To pronounce names And you can't get it right Okay look, you're being asked to pronounce names. We live in it.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Okay, look. If you're a Christian, I will just tell you this. We live in a constructed universe. You already knew that. If you're an atheist, we live in a simulation. Call it whatever you want. This is not random chance. The world is too fucking weird.
Starting point is 00:18:39 I have a very ethnic name. Kamala Shamala? Michael Mouse on the show, and he was like, Roe v. Wade? What the fuck? Don't you wish that. Roe v the fuck? Don't you wish that? Roe v. Wade. Don't you wish that? I don't know that I actually wish she had kids, but I wonder what she would have named her own daughter, right?
Starting point is 00:18:52 So we have Shamala, we have Kamala, we have Lamala. Where does this go from here? Lamala. Or do you just abandon it because now you're Western? Lamala. The need to correct people on her name, I think, comes off as extremely smug. As somebody who has a very ethnic name that's harder and probably more often mispronounced than Kamala's name, I've never tried to correct people.
Starting point is 00:19:12 I commend people for even trying for a very ethnic first and last name. I have a double first name, which is unusual in America, but both names are super Western, super normal. My first name is Hannah Clare. And when you try and correct people, people act like you are so rude. Yeah. People don't know this, but my full name is not Tim. It's an acronym for the Incredible Machine. It's true.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Is the last name an acronym too? Yeah. Four. We can't tell you that. He's going to steal his whole identity. Punctual, occupational, organizational liaison.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Liaison. That sounds like that was your family's government business. French, huh? Indeed. Liaison. We need to watch out
Starting point is 00:19:56 for the four letter agencies. And under the beanie is the command input. It's in the USB port. It's USB A, actually, because I was built well before USB-C. But we'll get that updated soon. That's scarier than the alternative for what's under that
Starting point is 00:20:11 beanie. Why are you scared? No, for the alternative, it's better that there'd be some machine contraption. It's actually transparent. You can see sparkling lights. Who knows what could be under there? Just throw out a hypothesis. What are you scared of? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Different head cap. It's just a giant Star of David, right? Who knows? Right in the middle. And that would scare you? So you don't want him to be Jewish? I mean, it's actually Voldemort's head. I need to protect his proper identity.
Starting point is 00:20:39 So at the weather meeting. You just want a monopoly on this show of being the person. Underneath the beanie is a smaller hat. All right, everybody. We're going to go to callers. And we'll start with Aura Observes. Welcome to the show. You are.
Starting point is 00:20:58 There you go. Oh, yep. Here I am. Hey, thanks for taking my call. This is my second time calling in. And I really appreciate being able to ask questions to you all. Yeah. You're welcome.
Starting point is 00:21:08 This question is open to Tim and everyone. This is in regards to last week's debate between Vivek and John Bolton. In it, Bolton stated that NATO's goal in the Ukraine-Russian war is to reclaim not just the lands taken in the current war, but all the lost lands, including Crimea. When pressed by Vivek, Bolton confirmed that this is his position and the stance of the NATO alliance. Isn't this intent essentially the equivalent of declaring war on Russia? Well, he can't formally declare war, but expressing his intent that if he gets in the government, he will, so yes. That's why we don't like him. But he said that it's his position and the position
Starting point is 00:21:47 of the nato alliance so it's like whoa that's a lot but still he it's true and it's scary he as an individual can't declare anything but it's also not surprising to me to hear that nato wants war you know what i mean i don't know el lied you want to chime in i think it's a territorial dispute um the dumbass and crimea were sovereign ukraine territory um 2014 it was for crimea and more recently for the dumbass and i'm not surprised that both sides disagree on what is you know proper ukraine or russia proper russia currently says that like the Donbass claims the Donbass is a part of Russia. I'm not surprised that the Ukrainians and John Bolton are still claiming Crimea and the Donbass is like a part of their country. I think I didn't listen to the debate with John Bolton. But as far as John Bolton as a symbol for what I believe like of peace through strength as a representative for that, I think he does a relatively poor job.
Starting point is 00:22:51 I think he's kind of washed up at this point. But I think, you know, we need to go through that. Glide threw a mustache to match John Bolton and now he's regretting it. I think he did well while serving as a public figure, but it's difficult to really negotiate what part of your territory is worth trading off or not. I'll tell you, in Ukraine, the Ukrainians believe that the Crimea and Donbass area are still part of Ukraine and that they're still willing and want to fight Russia for it. It's just, as Vivek put it on the debate, it's like this is mythological. There's no way you can ever get Russia to give up these lands,
Starting point is 00:23:38 especially not within this small fight within Ukraine. So what it could possibly lead, at least in my opinion, is it only means NATO wants a total Russia defeat in order to make that happen. They're intent. Yeah, well, I thought that was true from the beginning. I think we're seeing Ukraine now try to take a part. I don't agree with this specific strategy, but because we've seen this conflict kind of run amok, we're seeing Ukraine now grab parts of Russia that I think is only being used as a potential leverage in future negotiations. Like you give me more part of the Donbass back. I'll give you this random part of Russia. So,
Starting point is 00:24:11 you know, and here's the thing. Once this conflict in Ukraine ends and the Russians will likely take over half of the Donbass and likely not get removed from Crimea at all. In the future, the Russians will plan an invasion of Ukraine again. I don't know if it'll be in five years or 10 years, in 20 years, but they will take another chomp at Ukraine. And I guess Russia's plan here is if they can't do it in one foul swoop to take their time and do it in pieces. And I think that's what we're seeing them successfully do, because I agree with Vivek here. I don't think the Ukraine is going to be able to get any of Crimea back and maybe token amounts of the Donbass if we do want to see peace here at all. Right on. Is there anything else you wanted to add or shout out?
Starting point is 00:25:00 Well, a big shout out to the Steamboat Institute. Those are the folks that hosted the debate. I saw the whole thing. It's really well organized. I really want to give them a shout out. If you guys haven't gone and checked out that debate and seen it in its entirety, it's an amazing debate. And apparently they host a bunch of other debates as well, just hitting on topics very similar to that one that I think is really worth giving a shout out to. Right on. Tim, have you ever tried to have John Bolton on the show?
Starting point is 00:25:27 I mean, if... I don't know, but we're going to jump to the next caller, so thanks for calling in. All right, next up, we could certainly have Bolton at some point. We got a lot of plans for the Culture War, and we're thinking of doing street interviews and shows where we actually set up a table and do a culture war podcast live at a university. And then not too dissimilar from Change My Mind, but it's not about changing my mind. We want to bring on guests and have them have these conversations. So we'll figure it out. But let's grab Danny Delete. What is up? Why, hello, longtime follower, even since the Vice days, but also still love to call in. Right on.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Let's see. My question is for the entire panel and kind of how constitutionally this might work. So within my work, there has been the resurfacing of Kamal's videos about Medicare for all and getting rid of private insurance. And in cooperating with different people we work with, a lot of other insurance companies are now finding those videos again and freaking out and pausing policies. This is causing internal conversations about it, and it's interesting it's a month out from the election. How do we see the realization of this playing out?
Starting point is 00:26:42 Because more and more the industry is freaking out now that they're realizing that she's actually against their jobs existing. That's interesting. I don't know. I mean, it depends on how fast people realize this, right, and how effective the messaging is. Again, for whatever reason, Kamala Harris is selling herself as the vibes candidate and is somehow able to keep enough voters happy by saying nothing while also sort of pretending to say something. That's not really a clear answer, but it's just to me, it's hard to speculate this close to the election and not knowing how quickly this situation would would gain attention again, kind of because the hurricane is dominating everything right now. The hurricanes, I should say.
Starting point is 00:27:34 Yeah. How old are these videos? Are they like, I mean, what's her position now is I guess. That's true. Her values have changed and she wants to work on compromise. Everyone should vote against her because for all you know, she's opposed to you. You don't know. She's been in favor and opposite to everything. I also kind of don't see her picking that fight.
Starting point is 00:27:54 I mean, I could be wrong, like because it's going to be a close election no matter what. I don't think either side's going to have a lot of political capital. And that's a big fight to pick. So I don't know. That's going to have a lot of political capital, and that's a big fight to pick. So I don't know. That's a really interesting question. Do you have an opinion? Did you have a follow-up on that question, sir? The follow-up was just even how they could even, as the guest is involved in constitutional law, how could they even change that to work within
Starting point is 00:28:26 the constitutional framework oh boy that's a really great big question it depends on how you view the constitution because i kind of tend to view it like it doesn't permit that uh kind of massive whatever you would call it but um you know there's another school of thought that you know sort of the new deal kind of thinking that gained traction in the 20th century that you can sort of just amend the constitution by fiat or just by act i mean my big axe to grind on that point is when they wrote the constitution they didn't want there to be general federal criminal jurisdiction. And you have to take this insane interpretation of the Commerce Clause to get to it. And I think to get to this kind of universal health care, you kind of have to do the same thing.
Starting point is 00:29:21 And ultimately, I think at the end of the day that the people just end up deciding it and i don't know if there will even be any agreement on that because it's such a controversial thing you know i think this notion that the constitution is just bounded by its text is not um an accurate view of the constitution just historically because um the government and the people have acted in all sorts of ways that are just contrary to the text and that's not an argument against textualism it's just sort of i think a a more realistic pragmatic view of how things play out constitutionally in this country do you think you want to shout out Do you want to shout out? I just want to shout out the Cajun Navy 20, 2016.
Starting point is 00:30:11 They're the main thing still actually going right now. The other, a lot of their Cajun Navy ground support relief efforts are kind of offshoots that are kind of taking away from the actual main Cajun Navy 2016 that are actually still helping out and or planning and staging for the next hurricanes. Wow. Right on. Have a good night. Thank you for calling in. All right. Next up, we're going to bring in Heavensby. It is Jesus Chris. He's here. Yes, it is indeed. It's my first time calling in and I've been listening for years. So I appreciate you taking my call. Thanks for calling.
Starting point is 00:30:46 Yeah. Well, my question is primarily aimed towards Tor. Brian Lunduk reported on this last week, and it was about the Linux Godot community. They recently had a mass banning incident from both their Discord and SourceCore access. They also blacked out a whole bunch of journalists. The banning was specifically targeting people with the quote-unquote wrong political beliefs. They claimed that it was harassment of this mass group, and they were harassing people afterwards and all sorts of stuff that just simply wasn't happening.
Starting point is 00:31:18 Afterwards, they had a public release, and they were trying to explain it. But in the end, they basically said that they were the Linux kernel community and things like that, either from any kind of a constitutional or legal standpoint? You know, I don't think there is. I mean, beyond just going out and, you know, forming a new community. I mean, I think it's unfortunate that those kinds of fights happen. They seem to happen a lot in those kinds of spaces, just like, I guess, any other kind of space. But I don't, you know, and then even if you could do something, the one thing, you know, as a lawyer, I say to a lot of people is like, do you really want to spend all your energy, like litigating that or fighting that when you could actually just turn it to positive creation and just sort of, you know, look back on that thing. And while that was an unfortunate incident, yeah, we got screwed, but let's go turn to something positive because I think it's very easy to get caught up in sort of
Starting point is 00:32:38 that desire for setting things right and vengeance. And I think that ultimately in the long run just has negative consequences that aren't, aren't, aren't worth it. So like, but nothing off the top of my head, like pops in like, Oh, okay. You know, is there, you know, some kind of legal action you could probably take? Yeah. You can find a lawyer to spin out anything. Um, you know, call me, right. Uh, but, um, you're willing to to to have some billable hours yeah i hate the billable hour i hate the billable hour uh but i i don't i can't think of anything off the top of my head i mean it's unfortunate you know these kinds of high school antics and this kind of censorship because i'm a i'm a first amendment absolutist and that kind of thing and i think you need to
Starting point is 00:33:21 be able to stomach other people's views and get along. Was that always your position on the First Amendment or did it evolve over time? Pretty much almost. I didn't have a real deep understanding of the First Amendment until I really got into the Constitution. But I think I've always just been a loudmouth
Starting point is 00:33:38 who popped off. So I didn't, you know, I don't want to, you know. But I mean, you got to, tolerance is really, really important. And so I think that's unfortunate what happened. But, you know, I see that happen a lot, you know. So anything you want to follow up with? Yeah, it kind of makes it so that you have to do a lot of different things.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Like this particular community had the Godot source code repository forked into Redot. And they so far haven't done a whole lot other than merging changes back upstream from Godot. So it's a really interesting problem because they're basically forming a new community, just like you said. But it's hard to see that schism, which is basically causing the source code to end up completely split, but they're basically doing the same thing. So I don't know. I guess it's frustrating from my perspective
Starting point is 00:34:34 to see open source doing that, but it does end up with multiple communities potentially doing different and interesting things. So there is that. It's kind of in a sense, it's not open source anymore. In a certain sense, it's like factions are taking control of it right but then we're gonna go down the
Starting point is 00:34:47 rabbit hole on that conversation but um you know it's unfortunate yeah absolutely well that's that's pretty much what i got i appreciate y'all for taking my call um i do just want to shout out real quick the uh the cast 20 uh discord server it's uh we've been playing D&D and RPGs for a little over a year now, and everybody met on the TimCast server for the most part, and we pretty much take anyone that's middle-of-the-road and conservative over there. And if anybody's interested in playing some D&D, you should come join us. You can send me a message or check out the D&D thread. Thanks, guys.
Starting point is 00:35:25 Thanks for calling in. And I of course have not removed monocrypt or jeweled Lotus from any of my decks. In fact, I still have dockside extortionist in some of them, but, um, my not do deck.
Starting point is 00:35:35 I have no problem, no longer playing. That is to say, I don't respect the bands and, uh, wizards should undo them. But anyway, onto Harold,
Starting point is 00:35:43 Harold of the Omni stone you are here hey guys let's save the craziest for last yeah welcome to the show so um yeah i've been a long time listener and uh i started following you guys listen to you guys when uh all the uh plotting started happening that's actually how I found out about your kids. But anyways, so something that has been bothering me lately is listening to the communist Marxists speak out about the hurricane or speaking about the hurricane. And they've been saying a lot about disaster equity.
Starting point is 00:36:19 So do you think that when they say disaster equity and how they seem to be making things worse or at least more difficult do you think they actually mean that they want a specific outcome of how many people of a certain race quote-unquote whites die because they believe this will impact uh them the most because they seem to think that only white people live in the Appalachian Mountains. And that's probably the case. I believe when they want to incorporate DEI into their rescue operations and such, I think if they see what they view as disproportionate amounts of minorities affected by this, then they will prioritize them over others is how I understand
Starting point is 00:37:06 that. We saw something like this actually with the vaccine rollout where they were encouraging or they were only giving vaccines. They were limiting the amount of vaccines that they were giving to non-minorities because they thought they were differently vulnerable. I'd need to pull this up again, but this is terrible. Whether whatever the color of your skin is, your ethnic status isn't what should determine whether or not you are saved. And none of that should be considered in the prioritization of who our rescue workers
Starting point is 00:37:38 are saving in whatever order. But they have been advocating for disaster equity. This is in the videos that have, you know, they've gone viral. So I think they'd say black people are disproportionately affected because such and such. And therefore we need to seek out rescuing and prioritizing black lives. But in a zero sum rescue operation. Right. If it's everything is so dangerous, you can't be telling me that like you have the chance to rescue some people, but you passed up because they weren't the right color. Right. Like it should be rescuing who as many people as you can as fast as you can the idea is fucked up to
Starting point is 00:38:09 say like oh more people of color have been harmed by this therefore we are going to seek out people of color specifically to save and not non-minorities because we need to have this be equitable and they'd say the reverse is racist because, look, black people were disproportionately killed. Therefore, we need to seek them out to try to make less disproportionate. And I think that was like a similar logic to the vaccine rollout. How is it equitable to use a discriminatory metric in deciding who lives like because equity to them means that historically disproportionate historically marginalized people are already below someone else so equity is evening it out but you're not you're making a discriminatory choice about right you're using a discriminatory
Starting point is 00:39:00 metric to decide who lives so that like yeah. But in the world of diversity, equity, and inclusion. I get the world. I've hung. Right. A homeless white man is more powerful than Oprah Winfrey. The way to make a justifiable outcome is by having the outcome be proportionate to percent race by population. So if any of these minorities are overrepresented in being affected by these hurricanes or natural disasters, they will seek out to benefit them disproportionately, regardless of what the situation was. We should never assume to see the population perfectly graphed on to almost anything as a percent of population.
Starting point is 00:39:41 This is a little bit off topic, but I don't know if you saw this. There was an interview with a sheriff and I think it was like the director of emergency management in a small town in Tennessee. And they were talking about, yes, we have been devastated and things are very hard. And they got asked by journalists. There was a factory there, and I wish I remember the name of it now,
Starting point is 00:40:03 that got flooded and there was a lot of loss of life but it was specifically among a big hispanic population and the um the emergency response coordinator had to say something to the effect of like well we he was apologizing for not putting out more warnings in spanish because and he had to say like we actually weren't aware we had a large Hispanic population. So we feel awful because we didn't serve these people and this community is sad and like this is lost life and that's tragic. But also his explanation was like we didn't know they were there. To me, this reads as though there is perhaps a large population of undocumented people working at this factory, and therefore they are not plugged into regular resources. They're also not, you know, predominantly not speaking English. And so the emergency
Starting point is 00:40:55 warnings that the town seems like they did their best to get out would never have reached this population because they are not plugged into the community they're in. That's a little bit of an aside from what you're talking about. But there does, I think, become this component of people immediately trying to say, because this has become a habit for media, well, you actually only let the white people survive or you only help them and you didn't help this other disadvantaged community. And I think the reality is that no one wants to have to report that there are there are mass casualties because of hurricanes in their county and they would service whoever they could as fast as they could in any way they could if they had the resources, time and in this case, knowledge of what the challenges they were facing. Yeah. Did we address your question? Did you have a follow up there? the, if it was up to people like that, the FEMA coordinators and all the ones that don't act,
Starting point is 00:42:05 that aren't actually like doing the physical recoveries, such as the police officers, firefighters, volunteers, if they had that absolute authority, those people would actually choose to discriminate on who they save. I actually think that's how psychotic these people are. Maybe. We're in a very divisive time in America, so I can understand why you think that. But I just got a notification that Kamala opened a beer with Colbert, so, you know, she'll win now. Famously,
Starting point is 00:42:34 Trump and Biden both don't drink, so I guess she's trying to be the cool candidate. I don't know if we lost the caller or if he just finished his sentence abruptly. If you're there, is there anything you want to shout out? Sorry, I just stopped talking because I realized I was about to start rambling. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:50 Anything you want to shout out? I actually wanted to draw some attention to the fact that Kamala Harris decided to refer to October as Noctober to get the vote out for her voter base. And it's rather interesting that Comrade Kamala has a Noctober,
Starting point is 00:43:09 otherwise known as KKKtober. Wow. Noctober. Her messaging is all over the place. Well, right on. Thanks for calling in. And if you like that joke, please follow me on X's X on X. X slash or X apostrophe X isms for more dumb jokes.
