Another one of those insults your uncle would hurl at you is you don't quit running that cocksucker. I never got that one dude. My uncles were really Christian. They didn't use those words. They were in the pocket more. Yeah dude. They didn't use those words They were in the pocket more. Yeah, dude They were they were trying to tell me about Michael W Smith and Stephen Curtis Chapman

Really? Yeah, dude. All my uncles are really Christian Well as a as a member of the good uncle brigade I will not be harming my nephew Yeah, don't don't say don't say those words to your nephew don't use massage near homophobia to Chide them you got to be a little more clever than that as a lot of people know I'm having a woad house summer and I've caught myself using antiquated British terms like Bally and dashed. Dashed. Yeah.

Wait, did I just so fun? Did I just hear you use the word misogynoir though? No, I didn't use misogynoir. I don't even know what that means. It's a word that I was saying. It has something to do with like black and is it black? When is it like towards? No, brother. It's, it's actually misogyny and neo noir detectives is actually what it is Also, it's when you call a woman a dame or a broad. Yeah, Dave were brought Got some fun games. You see yeah, that's that capify. Okay. It's a word that

Has fallen out of fashion. It was popular between approximately 2014 and 2019 maybe No one uses misogynoir anymore, but it was like a big thing. I saw on Twitter all the time in the 2010s Would be a hell of a thing if my chicken fighting uncles were resorting to misogynoir the little man If my chicken fighting uncles were resorting to massage and water belittle me They would do they would do shit like that they would like they call you a queer and then they put you in a wrestling hold Make you beg for mercy. Y'all didn't get that treatment No, dude, man. They'd milk my mice, you know, they pull it bend your finger back like that

fucked up hmm I Had an uncle do something similar to that, but it was more on the me to end of the spectrum Abuse the good old classic Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. A vicar assault. Well... It's also important if you have a nephew not to do... certainly not to do that, but also don't do the rest when old Zeta. Uh-huh. Well, anyway.

Moving right along. This little, uh, yeah. Little Tabe, tame humor. humor yeah a little It's a wodehouse summer though. Did they do that stuff in your house? Was there any kind of that that stuff going on in wodehouse? No, it's all above board sauce It's kind of just like a bunch of rich morons having little side quests and the help having to bail them out every time Huh? That's cool.

So, if I can't take credit for the phrase, Wodehouse summer, the homie Jonah Weiner of Blackbird Spy Plane forecasted this in 2022, but like most things, I'm about three years late to the draw, but very glad I found it late, better late than never, you know? Mm-hmm. Oh, man. Found it like better late than never you know mm-hmm Man fucking

All right, well I'm I guess I am tasked with the unenviable position of Trying to find a new angle to discuss The impending apocalypse that we didn't cover on the Patreon episode on Monday. The... I was just talking to Erin before we logged on. It's like, not really much has happened since Monday. I mean, but at the same time it feels like we're even closer to war than we've ever been before. It's I don't know. It's what's that new song on the radio? I've got anxiety.

I've got anxiety. You know what I'm talking about? That's a song. It's a song that's on the radio all the time now. Was the singer talking about war impending war with Iran? I think it's more like all the songs in the radio are about how I'm scared and I've got Like I'm shaking in my boots Because there's that other song that's like

About being messy Because I'm so messy like the British lady like all the songs All the songs in the radio right now about how everybody's just a mess and a wreck And like no one's doing good. I Was gonna say I like how all your invitations of these singers all sounded the exact same Well, I've been big on the Addison Rae training I was like that's not true Terrence her hit song headphones I was like, oh wait, the refrain is need a cigarette to make me feel better So I guess that tracks what you're saying. There's an ambient anxiety in the air there is it's I saw a

There is a tweet from one of these financial Accounts I follow it might have been like unusual wells or some show like that like and it was like The tweet was something to the effect of for those who say world war three is on the horizon We just want to caution everybody and say the markets do not Show that even slightly and it's like didn't weren't they saying that before world war one Everybody's saying like there's no way though. No the world's not gonna go to war Everybody's saying like there's no way though. No the world's not gonna go to war There's just too much money like no one would do that. They wouldn't fuck up the bag like that come on Anytime somebody's saying there's not gonna be war you can set your watch by there's gonna be war

Yeah, there's a general rule. It's like opposite day y'all ever ever celebrate opposite day. I did yeah So yes, we used to go to school y'all ever celebrate opposite day? I did, yeah. I did. So. Yeah, we used to go to school and we'd have to pretend like we were school children in Iran. Because that's the opposite of America. America. Oh, that's right.

Not Russia? Yeah. In the 80s, that's in the 80s. In the 80s, yeah. Yeah, there's a new bogey man, of course. When I was in the 90s though, when I was a kid in the 90s, it was Iran. Iran. Or China.

I mean, it's... Wait, does China have a nuke? Is that a question? Do y'all know the answer to that question? China most definitely has nukes. Brother, they just... I just read this article. Brother, they're nuked out of hell. They definitely have a nuke, because I just read this article. Brother, they're nuked out of hell

They definitely have a new because I just read this article which maybe it's not related but just in terms of technological prowess They just fired like a laser from like Earth Towards some satellite orbiting orbiting the moon Damn! Which is described as like hitting like a hair from like 75 miles away or some shit like that You know what I mean? Very very precise. So I'm pretty sure they have nukes They've transcended past the need for nukes. They don't even that's child's play today. Yeah You think we'll get right up to the brink and then the Chinese will disarm the world's entire nuclear arsenal We'll get right up to the brink and then the Chinese will disarm the world's entire nuclear arsenal

Kind of like how Jeeves bells booster out and all the Wodehouse books like China will do that in the 25th hour And we won't even know but like everybody will go to pop off and their nukes just won't work and it's like what the fuck And then China's just chilling back in Beijing being like we had to bail you Inferiors out Yeah, smoking a cigar and laughing. And then so begins the greater Chinese century. And then, yeah, we're. Can you, I mean, we've talked about it before, like imagine dying Chinese,

but like I had another funny thought the other day, like our gravestones will be in Mandarin. That's so sick, man. That's tight, dude. With little dragons on them. Yeah, dude. That was so sick, man. That's tight. With little dragons on them. Yeah. That was so tight. I hope we get names like, I don't know, what would that be?

Why would I want to think of Flying Lotus? That's not, that wouldn't be a David Bandera though. Was that like a hip hop guy? Was it Flying Lotus? Exactly. When I took Mandarin in college, I went to school where we didn't have much budget. So the lady that made all the costumes

for the theater department was also the Chinese instructor only because she was from China and she spoke Mandarin. Yeah. And she gave us all, day one, she gave us all the name. And she said that, I'm probably botching this, so if anybody speaks Mandarin out there, feel free to correct me, but she called me Jirpong. And I was like, well, what does Jirpong mean?

She goes, it's like a big bird that flies many miles. She calls you a Canadian geese. So essentially a Canada goose, yeah. So in certain company, I'm known as Jirpong. And so I might take that with me into the Chinese century if that's the direction we're indeed heading and I hope it is. That is a tight big bird that flies, I'm writing this down, many miles. Many miles. Like a crane. I guess that's probably more what she had in mind. Yeah.

Yeah, crane or a heron or something Yeah, no surprise here, but I found Mandarin extremely hard and I dropped it pretty soon thereafter And I regret that now knowing what I know now about you know, Chinese century and everything Yeah, well, my sister kind of got a leg up because she taught in China When she was in college, you've been to China haven't you? Yeah I went there yeah and she was speaking I mean she was speaking Mandarin you know. Yeah so she still speak Mantan does she like it or she? I think she might be a little bit rusty but you know yeah maybe she'll pull it out of her back pocket. So they do have nukes though.

Sorry that's a roundabout way of saying yes they do have nukes though. They're from other people. Sorry, that's a roundabout way of saying yes, they do have nukes and I am a big bird that flies many miles. Okay. Alright. So then, is that good? Is it good that they have nukes? Like yesterday, I found myself thinking like, maybe everyone in the world needs a nuke in that way Because the thing is the only reason they're going after Iran is because they don't have nukes if they had nukes They wouldn't give a fuck. It's like North Korea like no one cares. They're Pakistan Pakistan is fucking nukes You don't see the West like trying to like and you know they're an Islamic Republic too, right If you have nukes no one fucks with you that's that's a lesson here

I think I think we should we should translate that into Interpersonal reactions like interactions you know everyone should have a personal nuclear weapon. Totally Yeah, you remember all those guys that told you you should just have one Bitcoin like you should just get one Bitcoin As everybody said that I think we should take a step further I think every single man woman and child person on this planet should acquire a nuclear weapon just one just to have just as like a Mutually assured destruction thing. Well, I would say maybe excuse children, you should be at least 18 years old. It should be like buying liquor or cigarettes or something like that.

I think you should have to take a written test, basically. You need to get your nuclear permit. And we could start that as early as 16, 15 if you work on a farm in Kentucky. But basically when you go get your driver's test, they ask you, do you want to take the nuclear permit while you're here? You might as well. Might as well.

Well, did you guys see in Time, Time, there was this article about how chat GPT is actually has like drawbacks and horrible effects when it comes to like development, early development, with like critical thinking skills and just writing. Like they did a study where they made people who regularly used JatGBT try to write SAT essays, and they were just like fucking horrible, you know?

So I would say that if you have to take a written test, like maybe we're trending towards the future where nobody would be able to have a Nuke because nobody can fucking write anymore. You can't qualify to get one. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, exactly. Everybody do chat GPT in there too anyway,

and then it would be off or not. I think what they should do is just like a driver's test where if you can see the letters on a vision test, then you can get the Nuke, but if you can't, then you can't. Like that's. If you could cover one eye and read E-L-O-Z-P. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Then you're good. Then you're good. Uh-huh. Well, I think your thesis, I mean, getting back to it, I think your thesis is correct, that like, I've just been, like I've been sitting here racking my brain, and we kind of talking about this a little bit about the TV preacher evangelical fascination with Iran and what that means.

There's been this conspiracy theory they're going to nuke Jerusalem for a long time. I've been trying to sort of parse out from my own particular context and when I grew up in like, why did everybody have such a hard on for Ron like my whole entire life and churches and stuff like that. And I think you're kind of seeing that bear out right now. Like, it's just like that Tucker Carlson interviews with Ted Cruz where he clearly knows nothing about this thing that occupies so much of his imagination and looms large in his life that he just can't even tell you anything about it. I think that's, he is in a way the perfect Senator for America because that is John Q

American that actually thinks about this stuff, which is also not nearly as many people as you would, as they would have you believe, obviously. No, the best part of, go ahead Tom, my best. No, just when they were doing it, I think it was like, uh, Kay Ivey, the governor of Alabama, was like, they want to threaten our way of life. And I assure you, I've not spent a ton of time in Alabama, but I have spent a ton of time in Eastern Kentucky. I don't think that there's a single person other than, like, my mom's kooky friend that

gave me that Jerusalem Countdown book, my man Terrence for mentioning that wakes up every morning thinking about like what's are the Iranians gonna shoot their move today you know what I mean? So you basically have to have some sort of like Jerusalem syndrome like weird You know psycho religious Obsession with the Holy Land in order to even like ponder these things and that stuff is laundered by You guessed it Tel Aviv There's I mean on Politico this Past weekend there was like an op-ed from the, I think the owner of Axel Springer,

which is a company that demands its employees sign a pro-Israel, pro-Zionism, like, pledge of fealty when they start working there. And basically the gist of the op-ed was that like, Iran is the most aggressive and belligerent Country in the on the planet right now, and they're going to destroy everybody. I mean like just your standard issue like you know alternate reality Fantasia part of the onboarding process at this company

Yeah, politico. Yeah, you have to sign up you have to literally sign something that says Your report reporting will not challenge Zionism And And then I like I was reading that and then I got into my car to go to the store and sometimes I have it on There's like some fucking channel in the lower frequencies like 95 something maybe you've heard here in licensing Tom It's like it's got like freedom Channel or something like that five five or something like that. Yeah I'm trying to find 96.9 kiss that plays the all lexicon's best 80s

I always run through that too, and it's like if you just stop there for a second like especially at nighttime you'll catch like Why you catch like like like coast coast reruns, but you'll also get like just the weird like Glenn Beck type stuff Yeah It's yeah, it's basically. It's like Liberty FM or some shit this guy on there was like talking about Politico He's like he's like there's a new survey out About Democrats from this website called Politico and now and now keep in mind Politico is a far far left publication it's like dude

Like it is Like dude like the average American weakling like which is what I've come to call them I've what I'm starting to starting to refer to them as like your average American weakling who would never Who would like fold in a millisecond if things ever got even remotely difficult or tough for them either? ever got even remotely difficult or tough for them either materially economically if they had to go Defend their their communities or anything like that like people who would collapse in a fucking second like

They're the average American weakling mindset is like further to the right of like your average Bercher in 1955. Like it's just like the problem of right-wing populism man is like it's just something I've been thinking about it's like really unique to neoliberalism like there was no such thing as right-wing populism before like the 1970s or 80s and no I don't even include the Nazis as right-wing populism like I'm talking about like I'm talking about like genuine like grassroots right-wing I don't know how to put it like a genuine like sort of grassroots. Yeah, right wing populism that like is only made possible due to the I

don't know like Economic forces economic forces, maybe just a backlash to like the civil rights movement I get what you're saying because and I was thinking about this the other day It's not it's not like you even have like I'm like just watching the Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz interview, you don't even have like a right-wing intelligentsia, so to speak, anymore, you know what I mean? Like I'm thinking like John Birch Society, like people who actually could,

I mean, of course I wouldn't agree with them, but people who could at least express themselves in a coherent way, you know? And maybe have- Yeah, what's his face? I'll sock you in your mouth, you goddamn creep? Yeah, and what's his face? I'll sock you in your mouth, you goddamn creep. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Why am I not remembering?

The guy who debated Gore Vidal, why am I not remembering his fucking name? William F. Buckley. Yeah, William F. Buckley, exactly, exactly. And I guess someone like Tucker Carlson is supposed to be that William F. Buckley figure, but I don't know, man. It always just seems to be doomsday reactionary politics. Like all these people are waiting for the world that they dreamed that will happen.

They're just waiting for it to manifest itself. But as you said, Terrence, if that world really happened, they would fold immediately. My question is, why do they do these weird over-corrections? Politico's a far left wing. Or even how MAGA's sort of a response to the tepid Obama administration. You know what I mean? Like Politico's a far left wing. Or even like how MAGA's sort of a response to like the Tepid Obama administration. You know what I mean?

I think it's- It's like we, we, go ahead, I'm sorry. No, you go ahead. No, I was just gonna say like, if the, it's why the Democrats have a losing strategy here. You know, like their only play is white slaves on the moon next time. Uh-huh.

You know, they have to take it there, or they're dead in the water. I mean, I think it's like they... Yeah, I don't know. Sorry, go ahead. What was you gonna say, that you're reasoning for that, you think? I don't even remember.

I'm not doing too good today. You seemed like you had a thought, and you just sheepish about it. I'm not doing like you had a thought you just like this about I'm not doing too good today No, I've literally just forgot and I'm embarrassed that I forgot. It's like an old man moment No, it's all right. That's all right. I have them on top Anyway Wait, I do want to bring a one more thing though, about, I forgot to mention before. I mean, we don't even have to talk about it because you never have to hand it to Tucker Carlson, right? You don't ever have to hand it to these people.

But it's really funny that one, he got Ted Cruz to admit that we are bombing around. They obviously were supportive. But secondly, and I think Alexander Vina had sent us this and I'm in the chat but at the end when Ted Cruz is like I hate communism my father was tortured by Batista though deliver and that was so good he goes well actually he's by Batista. Yeah, he just kept going. Yeah, not even by the communists but by Batista, yeah. By the guys whose politics are closer to my own politics, you know.

It bolsters my thesis about the white Cuban, one of Jacob's sneakiest, sneakiest things. He only made one good one, you know Fidelito and then once he was gone Just downhill from there Downhill from there Yeah Okay, I think I'm having a stroke I think I'm like literally You're like Ron Paul on TV This episode is gonna be an old timer I can't like focus I like I like I am

to be totally Frank kind of spiraling a little bit, like everything is so comprehensively bad. Like, the- the- Okay, just like- Like, not even the war. I'm not even gonna fucking talk about the war right now, cause I can't- like my brain- I can't even wrap my fucking head around it. But like, just talking about like the beautiful bill. The one big beautiful bill. all the things in this, how like the base Mike Lee guy is trying

to sell off like millions of acres of national parks or how the bill went to the Senate and the Senate decided that it didn't make enough cuts to Medicaid. They needed to make more cuts to Medicaid. And then like how how Rogers, who's like our congressman in Eastern Kentucky, releases this statement that's like, the big beautiful bill passes the House and it strengthens Medicaid cuts. It's like, dude, your constituency is average age 62? Like what the fuck? Like, it's just like they're in Not always the average age 62, but you're the life expectancy is 65

We're like three years away from like a massive population reduction in your district what the fuck yeah, I Don't know just The check coming due on everything at once like I read this article in the New York Times about the Doge cuts to Social Security, right? Concern over Doge-induced policy changes has caused members of the public to clog the agency's phone lines and crowd into field offices. More Americans have claimed their Social Security benefits earlier, agency data shows, sacrificing higher payments down the road for financial certainty now and with a record number of retirement

Claims filed this year the agency has been battling a growing backlog internal email show This is like I read this the very first this article starts off Elon Musk stood before a giant American flag at a Wisconsin political rally in March and rolled out an eye-popping a giant American flag at a Wisconsin political rally in March and rolled out an eye popping allegation of rampant fraud at the Social Security Administration. Scammers, he said, were making 40% of all calls to the agency's customer service line. Social Security employees knew the billionaire's claim had no basis in fact. After journalists followed up, staff members began drafting response. That's when Leland Dudek, plucked from a mid-level job only six weeks earlier to run social security because of his willingness to

Cooperate with Doge got an angry call from the White House. The number is 40% insisted Katie Miller a top administrative aide He's working closely with mr. Musk. Mr. President Trump believed mr. Musk She said do not contradict the president it goes on to say how they hired a 21 year old Palantir employee to basically Like it's just I think I cannot get over this all right like I saw this video today of Alex carp the CEO of Palantir being like They're gonna be scared quaking in their boots when the United States wakes up And they go after Iran and all of our enemies are going to be scared.

Americans are the most loving, God-fearing, fair, least discriminatory people on the planet and they want to know that if you're waking up and thinking about harming American citizens or if American citizens are taken hostage and kept in dungeons or if you're a foreign power sending fentanyl to poison our people something really bad is going to happen to you and your friends and your cousins and your bank account and your mistress cannot have parity. Our adversaries do not have our moral compunction. If it's even they will take advantage of our niceness, kindness, our desire to be at home in Nebraska or New Hampshire

or wherever we live in our peaceful environments. And they need to wake up scared and go to bed scared. And honestly, probably shouldn't say this, is why I thought the Democrats gonna lose the election and why they did. Because people wanna live in peace, they wanna go home, they do not wanna hear your woke pagan ideology, they wanna know they're safe.

And safe means that the other person is scared. That's how you make someone safe. It's like, OK, I just can't I cannot see the average American fighting on behalf of Israel, Palantir, Coinbase, Draftkings, and the senator who fled the country when his state had a power outage I can't see anybody in that ambit fighting for any value That would nobody but a deeply sick person is taking up arms for that for that collective No, I mean also too. We are such a weak and brow-beaten people, you know that people are just trying to survive I don't think you get Americans die for anything that really

There are AI girlfriends perhaps, but Let's throw more let's throw more fucking timber on the fire watching TV the other night like I'm starting to get ads for this fucking Microsoft AI program that like the ad was a girl walks into her Her kitchen and her mom sitting there, and she's like mom I want an alien themed birthday party or something like that and her mom was like oh I don't know how to do that and this little guy pops up It's like ask Microsoft AI and so then like they plan the birthday party with AI because they don't have Imagination to do that anymore. I mean I saw it

I saw an Airbnb ad last night that I'm a million percent positive was made with AI Not do it. It's all fucking cooked There let me tell you when you told me that kids can't read books in the third person anymore. I mean kids probably don't read books anymore, but the fact that they can't comprehend the third person narrator, you know what I mean? Like you live in a world where we've taught there's a third person narrator, you know, that lives in the sky and that dictates all,

it's like you fundamentally don't understand the experience we've been groomed for for thousands of years. Seriously, how soon are we gonna start having, you know how Jefferson wrote his own Bible? People are gonna start writing the Bible from like first person, like this is first person, like Moses, like I got the Israelites out of Egypt. Like this is first person like Moses like I got the Israelites out of Egypt like this is first person Noah no cap brah that the Red Sea is gonna part when we roll up on it you know

it's just we're stuck in such a fucking loop that like I've watched over the last 24 or 48 hours the mayoral race in New York City just devolve into this fucking thing about like how Zoran Mum daddy man Donnie is like anti-semitic because he said globalize the info to photo one time or something like that like Just like what does this have to fucking do with any threat with any of that shit dog it's like it's like everything especially in that race like it just goes back to the to the point that everything hinges upon Israel you know every policy towards Israel and how you feel about Israel so it's no questions about what Zoran's gonna do

for a New Yorker is right it's about his anti-semitic because he doesn't like seeing kids get killed no I just I would this New Yorkers, right? It's about how he's anti-Semitic because he doesn't like seeing kids get killed. No! Does New York City not have anything going on? Like truly, there's nothing else I can talk about. 98% of the fucking race has to do with your thoughts on Israel. I mean, it's- The greatest city on Earth, you know what I mean?

And you can't think of anything else to fucking we're like Ted Cruz Saying that his whole Entirely what did he tell Tucker Carlson in that interview that like he had worked harder than any senator to Support Israel and like Tucker started pushing him on an APAC That part of the that part of that interview was maybe the most maddening part like Tucker's like What does a pack do and and he's in to cruise like well nothing really and Tucker's like well isn't it a foreign? Lobbying group he's like there's nothing wrong with that foreign groups lobby the government all the time, but like I

Don't know it's just it's mad. It crews like, no, no, no, no, no. It's not. It's not. It says, but then in the next sentence he punctuated that with, when I was elected to the Senate, I decided I was going to be the most friendly to Israel senator that there is. And it's like, how do you square those two things, dude? What did Bill Mitchell say on Twitter the other day? It basically was just kind of like a mirror of what Ted Cruz said about the sort of like biblical mandates of Israel.

That America has somebody close calls but not allegiance to Israel is probably why God is looking down on us. Israel is our G, is the Jeeves to our Wooster. Has anyone considered the possibility that America has miraculously survived so many close calls over the centuries? Is that our purpose is to defend Israel? If we quit Israel, I believe God may quit us. And I'm not prepared to take that chance.

Also, I want to say that if you're talking about close calls as it like If you if you really got to the bottom of it's probably some of those things were called close calls were probably engineered by Israel I'm sorry. I said it on Twitter, but that is like medieval peasant brain, you know, like riddle with syphilis, you know Twitter but that is like medieval peasant brain you know like riddle with syphilis you know what I'm saying it's just like everyone's just getting not even just stupider just more I don't even know how to put it just more religiously kind of fanatic you know the only thing they're going to respond to is biblical punishments I'm talking we got to bring back stoning we have to bring back shunning at least locust plagues of locusts of Locust. We need to put John Federman on an uncontactable island with nobody there and just see how

long he lasts. You just come back two years later and just find this inhuman skeleton they think is like Nephilim or something under a god damn coconut tree. And you find out that he actually died on day two when a coconut fell off the tree and Bopped him in the noggin, you know We got to bring that back we got it probably crucifixion honestly, that's what we need we need carp dude teal and Just for good measure JD Vance. You know what I mean right there The I feel like the Lilliputians could eat off Fetterman for like several millennia, right?

What that little pussions like weren't they little tiny guys who like caught David Copperfield No the fucking what is that what is that story? Monkey-cow Lilliputians to I'm my internet's going take their name from the dickens tail Gulliver's travel Gulliver's travels yes, okay, okay? I know what you're talking about the little issues with Dickens go no that was like in the 18th century goal is Jonathan Swift It's Gulliver's job

they it's um there's a little guys they like through the You know Wires over the John over the time down yeah, and tied him down Played with his nuts and stuff. Oh my horrible way to you think Swift was doing some anti-hibernian... He was Irish, I guess, wasn't he? Yeah, I think it was a satire of the two political parties of its day, the Whigs and the Tories. Ah. Yeah.

Clever. We don't do that anymore. We don't you know do anything leave old Satire anymore. That's true. You'd fuck all over ended I'm fucking I fucking hate gold Yeah, I'm just pissed at everything today, but it you know the Ted Cruz thing dude I'd say that the like I But anyway, the Ted Curry thing, dude, the, like, I mean, like, you mentioned it earlier, Aaron, like, a lot of people latched on to the fact that he doesn't know a thing about Iran, which of course he doesn't. Like, he's one of the most debased, worm-like figures in American politics, with JD Vance. Like, they are both, like, two of the most debased Like worm like people like you would imagine them in the lab of some fucked up island of dr.

Moreau Human centipede thing like with their mouths sewn onto the asshole of another you know what I mean like Just an abomination before God an abomination before God You've got the the you know the Perestroika fucking worm-like beings and the halls of power in a morally and visually repulsive Like this that they like JD Vance trying to troll blue sky about like the Supreme Court transgender transgender hearing like the

Which is another bad thing. I going to throw under the pile, them getting rid of gender affirming care for young people. But JD Vance getting on Blue Sky like, I'm going to get on Blue Sky and troll the people, look how cool I am. It's like, if you're bad at trolling, you're publicly advertising how little you deserve to live truly like like like it's already one thing to be a troll but to be bad at it it's just like it's like kill me please please somebody please pit me out of my mystery place didn't he get he got suspended to I think hours later yeah

in of course he was like look how they hate free speech. I own the libs. Oh buddy Congratulations JD. That's the problem. That's the problem with You know, he's like the first two online vice president, you know what I mean? Can you imagine like the can you imagine Spiro Agnew getting on blue sky and you know And I was beneath these guys it's like JV at a certain. You got to put it down man. It's beneath you now This is what I'm saying like at no point Prior to like the 70s did the right wing need to inculcate like a grassroots movement. They just astroturfed it Nobody was a fucking like poor right winger

I mean, maybe you had a few random ones here and there, but for the most part, and I'm not even sure that like the average right winger now is a poor person. Like we've established, they're just mostly like failed petty tyrants, you know, small business owners and stuff. But like- The occasional dentist.

In the occasional- The occasional jet ski owner, you know. in the occasion of occasional jet ski or But like like now right wing populism is and it's the engine of Sort of like everyday politics in America so that like it's kind of like a perpetual motion machine It's just self-fulfilling so it's like you can create the conditions. It's like that. It's like that story I told about like when I saw when I was close to woodland park here in Lexington

And I saw that homeless guy just like completely across this other guy like push him down and like start screaming at him and stuff And that guy just runs off and in my mind. I was like yeah He's probably like a fucking fascist now a hundred percent like he's been radicalized. It's like they create the conditions for like material unrest for deprivation for Destabilization and all this and then that becomes something that they can then point to and say like this is the libs doing this This is like that's why we have to turn America into Germany 1942 you know I'm saying it's like The third rake you know yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a

We need a cleansing fire Yeah, yeah, the overcorrection to Stave this off is worth it because of what it portends for the future, which again is why the left has to respond with white slaves on the moon. So we need to resurrect the space program only for the purpose of expanding white slavery to the cosmos. You remember Bernie 2016, his campaign campaign motto a future to believe in, you know That's what it'll be a future to believe in white slaves on the moon brother

It would be funny if there was a serious like left-wing contender that just threw that out there Just like you know, like the meme of the guy that pretends to throw himself off the balcony Like drink the bleach and stuff like that. Yeah, it's like serious like Bernie style lift contender Then you just throw that shit out there to fuck with them There Trump's been doing that all week with like the bombing thing I It's just like Okay, like now we're like kind of getting into the weeds of this but like it's the Tucker Ted Cruz thing does mirror an actual split among the right wing right

among the people like the America firsters the Versus the people who got fired from Fox News and are salty the people who got fired from Fox News and are salty That's mostly his most Animating thing right now is that he got fired from Fox News So now he has to he has to he has to go after you know the corrupt Republican people people that he used to have on his own goddamn show you know yeah, I think that's that's the thing I mean that's a whole Yeah, I think that's that's a thing. I mean that's a whole sub conversation like why is he

Him and Marjorie Taylor green and Candace Owens and Steve Bannon like why are they Like I saw Steve Bannon today say that like the right wing base will acquiesce like they will accept the war and it's like yeah fucking Of course they will it's like of course a lot of cope I've seen a lot of cope over the last like, three days or so, but in the end, they'll fucking come around. Like I've seen this before. Well not a few liberals, mind you too.

Yeah. Yeah, I like the chart. They're starting to, I know things are bad when they start to pull this out, which I saw all the time in 2004. I know things are bad when they start to pull the the canard out that like well he's the president's been appointed by God therefore he's a leader and we have to defer to the leader because the leader knows best because

he's been appointed by God. It's like brother we just live in this confluence of times where it's like on the one hand it's like we have such peasant minded people You know, but it also does feel like it does kind of echo back to maybe before the invasion of Iraq But I just don't think you're gonna get people on board with this shit, man Nobody gives a fuck dude, especially over Israel. Nobody gives a shit man. Man. I listen everybody knows I'm a Bible guy. Okay, everybody knows that's my wheelhouse I'm even gonna say this and I've been Bible guy, okay? Everybody knows that's my will house. I'm even gonna say this, and I've been a little hard

on people that are like, no, we gotta get rid of religion, all this kind of stuff. We gotta pause religion for a little bit. Like, we gotta be heathens just for about six months, I'm thinking, just until we can sort this situation out a little bit, just so we can see what's going on Okay, I'm gonna challenge the believers out there to just be at least agnostic for about six months Take yourself outside of ancient prophecy and all these precepts and like this land was promised to the sons of

Whoever you know what I mean, and let's just look at this for what it is. The sons of Valshlomo. The sons of Valshlomo and generations before him. See this, what this is. Most of the powerful people in the Western world are essentially a part of Heaven's gate, but the difference is, is they have like, they thought they have an ancient mandate.

Think about that for a second. The people that control all the purse strings of everything, your well-being, Medicare, Medicaid, all these people, are either actual cult member religious zealots or using that as pretense to just be craven. You know what I mean? One or the other. And I don't think it matters which side they fall on. You know what I mean?

I think a guy like Huck is a true believer. I think a guy like Trump is obviously just using it for, you know, his own whatever. That's the funny thing, like watching... Again, like you'll never get your average maggot to admit this, but like... Objectively speaking, he is just a terrible leader. he's got all the hallmarks of a bad leader like uncertainty indecision waffling back and forth like his thing yesterday was like will I strike around will I not I don't know we'll find out it's like he's just all right to find out Trump's doing a little bit of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the break out of that for some reason. Yeah, we've all wrote Joe Biden's presidency office

like, you know, just insignificant and short-lived and whatever, and when actually the shadow looms large in the bitch assness. Right, right. Yeah, dude. The cruelty mixed with the bitch assness, you know what I mean? The, I mean, I hate to bring this up, but you mentioned Mike Huckabee,

and like his text message to Trump... I mean... I'll just read it for you here. Mr. President, God spared you in Butler, Pennsylvania, to be the most consequential president in a century, maybe ever. The decision's on your shoulders. I would not want to be made by anyone else. You have many voices speaking to you, sir, but there is only one voice that matters. His voice. I am your appointed servant in this land and am available for you, but I do not try to get in your presence often because'm available for you. But I do not try to get in your presence often because I trust your instincts.

No president in my lifetime has been in a position like yours, not since Truman in 1945. What did Truman do in 1945? I wonder. Oh my God. I didn't even think, I didn't even draw that connection. Jesus Christ. You got a tough decision, sir,

but I think God wants you to nuke Tehran. It's basically what he's saying. It's all... again, every fucking accusation is a confession. They will be the ones to nuke Iran before nuke... I mean, like we said, Iran doesn't have a nuke. They don't have a fucking nuke. They wouldn't be doing this. The United States and Israel wouldn't be doing this if they had a nuke. They don't have a fucking nuke. They wouldn't be doing this. The United States and Israel wouldn't be doing this if they had a nuke. I don't reach out to persuade you, only to encourage you. Use the nuke.

I believe you will... Yeah, a Christian. Use the nuke. Use the nuke. That consider this. That consider this. This is the origin of that... That consider this, that consider this, this is the origin of that fit that I hate to say it terms like gaslighting because that's just sort of you know you hear that all the time stuff like that but that the whole sort of feeling we felt for a while of up is down down is up being on skates whatever you want to call it it's facilitated by these Christian people who in the words of the immortal Kevin Smith, Kevin Mac Smith said, who acknowledged God with their mouth but denying with their lifestyle. Oh it's funny I think he was quoting Billy Graham. I think Billy Graham said that

originally which is even more interesting. I think it's yeah well I think it's a different context I think what they were talking about in those days was like, you know, acknowledge God with his mouth and then go have gay sex or whatever. But what I'm talking about is – Acknowledge some other guy with your mouth, yeah. I just don't think that a God worth serving would be condoning, nuking millions of people. I just – I would call me stupid. To me, that, you know, that has more to do with, you know, even in the Bible, even the Old Testament God that burned everything down

stopped fucking Abraham from cutting Isaac and having him. They're Satanists. 100%. They want mass death. Every accusation is a confession the same people who have said that The Antichrist will arise out of Iran and fucking Satan is coming back mark of the beast. They are the ones They are Satan. They are also true. I think they what they want mass death But I also think they too themselves want to die, you know, oh, yeah, like they have a death wish essentially, you know to themselves when to die, you know? Like they have a death wish, essentially, you know? Well, I don't know, Aaron, I have to push back. Huck did write a book called Quit Digging Your Grave

with a Knife and a Fork about 20 years ago, where he said that he sat down on a chair at the Arkansas State House when he was the governor in front of a bunch of people and it broke. And he said, that was the moment I knew I had to make a change. It was like a historic chair that had been there for like a long, you know what I mean? Like it had been there from like governors way before. How is this, this is amazing.

You don't want to go into heaven. You want to be, everybody wants to be lean. You want to go into heaven? You'd be in life when you go to heaven. When we march into the light you want to be in the heaven? You'd be life when you go to heaven. When we march into the light, you want to be in the best shape possible. That's what Huck was trying to get through to us. Yeah, um, I believe you will hear from heaven, and that voice is far more important than mine or anyone else's. You sent me to Israel to be your eyes, ears, and voice, and to make sure our flag flies above our embassy my job is to be the last one to leave

I will not abandon this post our flag will not come down You didn't you did not seek this moment this moment sought you it is my honor to serve you sir It is the embodiment of that Mike Davis Paragraph we are living through the nightmare edition of great men make history Unlike the high Cold War when Politburo's Parliament's presidential cabinets and general staffs to some extent counterveiled Megalomania at the top there are a few safety switches between today's maximum leaders and Armageddon There are a few safety switches between today's maximum leaders and Armageddon Now consider this juxtapose this with

You know fucking with the Soviets Okay, during the new during the Cuban Missile Crisis when Cruz chef said you know we don't wish to bring war to the Americans But if they bring it to the Americans, but if they bring it to us, then we'll see them in hell. You know what I mean? Those are serious dudes, but those are serious dudes in the pocket. You know what I mean?

Right. Yeah. These people just pop off and say all the craziest fucking stuff in the world and then throw bricks and hide their heads and all, you know, and check it out and all that shit with like Trump. Khrushchev really would have done it out and all that shit was like Trump. Cruz chip really would have done it if it really would have came to it. You know what I mean? Well, I mean, maybe you could say that during the Cold War, we had leaders that would,

I mean, even if they were, you know, rife with paranoia, you know, and anti-Soviet hatred, it seemed at least that they would make calculating decisions, you know what I mean? That would, they would see how is our opponent going to react, right? What is the way that we can avoid getting ourselves into a nuclear war, you know? They subscribed to an ideology of capitalism that promised to solve all of the world's problems. Like in their minds, because it was a battle

against communism, communism claimed to be able to solve poverty, to create technological innovation, to house every human and feed every human and equally distribute resources and do it efficiently. And the high capitalist leaders of the Fortis era said, capitalism can do all that and more, and it can create, and give you freedom, and create unimaginable wealth and all this, right?

They believed it, they really truly believed it. Today's leaders don't believe that. Like they are, that's why they don't have that like rationale staying hand that those capitalist leaders had 60, 70 years ago. It's because it's a monkey's paw situation, right? Like they got everything they wanted and it's still not enough.

They vanquished their communist enemy. They got more riches than they could possibly ever imagine This is well trodden territory with us But I think to me what's really crazy is that like they now have a populist right-wing base that is Completely riven through with evangelicalism and this like in times like millenarianism like kind of just yeah Black people they're animating philosophy because there's nothing left because there's nothing left like millenarianism, like kind of just, yeah, black pill, using shit. Is there animating philosophy because there's nothing left? Because there's nothing left.

It's bunker mentality stuff. It is, it's 100%, yeah. It's 100% a death cult, and I think too that even the problems that they claim that capitalism could solve during that earlier era, now the problems that capitalism has created are too deep, you know know and there are too many World ending scenarios that they just give up and they're just like well

We might as well submit to death the nuclear fire right I Mean just take any any one of the things that I was just listing like 30 minutes ago for example like Literacy and AI and the crisis and imagination and creativity and all this Like literacy and AI and the crisis and imagination and creativity and all this Wait, what what we're just gonna do away with AI that's not happening too much fucking money has been poured into it They're not going to go in brother. They're digging their heels in Toplin AI is gonna come down to us and our refusal of it and and probably at some point physically attacking yeah when the robots start rolling the robots out yeah we got it we got we got to blow the we gotta blow those guys head smooth off I genuinely think it's partially behind

why they're sort of naturalizing the complete destruction of the ecology of the natural world. It's like a big part of it is fossil fuels obviously, but it's like how much like natural, how many natural resources go into AI production. And it's like, if we're not going to do anything about that then like yes We have to we have to start creating ideologies that like naturalize The destruction of every last inch of the world like seeing like like we're the last generation that's gonna see fireflies You know how like how central fireflies are to just human creativity and like peace and calm and whimsy and all the childhood Yes to childhood like to

Know that that's gonna be gone Because we had to be able to like type in like let's see spongebob flying into the twin towers. You know what I mean? it's just like That's you had to use the one good example That is pretty tight you're right I really saw that. That is pretty tight. You're right. But I was telling you guys, I mentioned in the Patriot, but like, dude, I got this new phone and it uses Google Gemini, you know, which is their AI thing. And it's just being forced upon everyone.

And I think the public overwhelmingly, like they're either they're either a little bit apprehensive about AI or flat out reject it, right? Or they just also don't realize or don't understand and they're right to this extent in what way it'll help their own lives, right? Yeah. Which maybe it could, maybe in healthcare, maybe,

I don't know, but we're not trying to do any of that, right? Well, I think that's the thing. It's like I have said many times, like I supported in theory in very strict uses, very strict senses, but like, that's not what we're trying to do. We're trying to basically, I think that Airbnb commercial I was talking about

is the perfect example. It's like a quick shortcut like, it's a quick shortcut to, not that like, not that like commercials and advertising is the end all be all of human creativity in pursuit. It's just that like, if it becomes readily accessible to you, then you're going to start relying on it more and more. And before long, you won't even have your own sort of like imagination or-

Brother, you won't even know how to make a steak, bro, how to cook a steak. I saw this fucking steak cook or some shit that uses AI to cook the perfect steak and I was like, What are you- people have been doing this for thousands of years, yo, over a fucking fire. You know what I'm saying? Why do you need AI to make steak, yo? I- as bull- steak yo I as if we were if we were going to the stars or something then maybe that'd be cool I guess but like none of that has happening like we're gonna use it to destroy everybody on the planet that is in Israel and those who pledge undying fealty to it so I mean I'm in sorry it's just it's just a little it gets a little too much sometimes man. It fucking wears on me. It's just the

Just seeing like so many Israelis whine and fucking bitch and complain about like now Rockets are raining down on them. Oh my god Iran bombed a hospital It's just like I mean I thought Israel said I thought Israel said it was legitimate target to bomb a hospital Was this is the problem was starting with the supposition that you are the elect of God and the special little boys and girls of God Even though the scripture clearly says God is no respecter of persons It's just that you can't yeah, it's just a it's just like who thought that was a good fucking idea created an ethno state

An ethno state that's like yeah, that's based upon like the idea that this is like God's chosen land You know and all that stuff. Yeah, I mean, it's I mean Yeah, I mean it's I mean Good no I was gonna say I posted this but I've just been thinking about a man like You know the term Israel has the right to defend itself or the right to exist I don't think this has ever been said about any of the country ever not even fucking America. You know what I mean? Yeah No, I I I

No, I I I don't know there's something very similar between like your average Israeli and your average your average weakling Israeli and your average weakling American like they have nothing to worry about they they face no adversity or hardship all their battles have been fought for them by the most technologically advanced highly funded military and human history and that's why like every time I post about anything about like Like just like a story. I saw a few days ago about this girl who is dying of cancer and this girl who's dying of cancer and she's like eight years old but her parents she was born in the United States but her parents immigrated here

and her parents were deported and so they petitioned the government to let her parents stay during like her you know chemotherapy and cancer treatment and all this so it's part of like humanitarian petition make basically to get the government to let them stay and My comments, of course, we're just filled with people being like nope. They've all got to go. They've got to go get them out I voted for this that kind of shit. It's just what I'm just like It's what I mean. It's like the weakling American mind just to sit on fucking the computer all day and

Just like tag ice and FBI and stuff to just like I fucking hate when they do that shit, man Just like have no like just to be completely have a moral vacuum where your heart should be right like Again, these people aren't Christians. They're not godly people. They don't give a fuck about other human beings It's it's it's it's just kind of made me pretty cynical I guess it's the thing about about maybe 70 million of my fellow Americans But But that's the thing like I said, these are these are weaklings. These are weak people They would fold in a fucking instant if shit ever hit the fan like there's not already

They're not ready for it man. Not to say that I am not these exactly I'm not these are people who want to manifest this stuff They want to manifest like their darkest fucking dreams and desires, you know But that world actually happened like they like you said, they'd be the first to go man Yeah, I want that I want to clear up when I was talking about the elect of God, that was not like a pot shot at the Jewish religion. I was including like evangelicals who let in that too, that's like think that God's just going to fight all their battles for them and that they just don't have anything

else to worry about and how they treat their fellow man doesn't even matter because they've been, and that includes the Israelis, that includes American evangelicals, anybody that's sort of a religious zealot that takes if God before me, then who could be against me to some genocidal extremes? Even the ones that aren't overtly Christian or religious, like the tech people,

it's really those three constituencies, Jewish and Christian Zionists and the tech people they all Three you know have subscribed to this idea that like the world is basically The world is basically free to be essentially like raised leveled nuked destroyed for their personal essentially like raised level nuked destroyed for their personal Fulfillment for their personal survival even though they aren't even in fucking danger. I mean, it's I

Don't know like these people like the Christian take Christian evangelicals for example Are they are they seriously endangered or targeted by anybody? That's what I'm saying like they're the most sure They should they should Yeah, they should be persecuted instead. They are the most coddled Like weak yeah, this is a society set up for you you pathetic fucking excuse I mean There that's yeah, yeah if if I had the reins they better be lucky I don't have the reins that have a lot of evangelical camp set up all over the place I'd make Greg Locke all these fucking TV preachers that make them motherfuckers bust bricks until they fucking died. That's

gospel truth They'd be the first ones to go to the moon when I opened up the space program, you know? I don't know. It's just part of what's weird is that nothing has changed drastically since Monday at the sort of geopolitical level. Trump still hasn't announced that he's going to go to war or not Even though like we know from that Ted Cruz Tucker Carlson interview that like America is already bombing Iran like that's Which you know by the way if Iran does decide to hit back at American site like ships or military sites would be a hundred percent justified in doing so I mean

Yeah, but I think that I don't know man. It's just Harder the fucking waiting. I'm just tired of the fucking like sitting around like waiting like what you know like how much longer? Can this degrade? You know this week was like man. I felt like well between Monday and today Y'all heard of the doomsday clock, you know, which um, yeah each you know Each second or minute that passes it gets closer to midnight brother I wear two watches one is Eastern Standard Time. The other is the doomsday I feel like we've been you know Castro did that

You know Castro wore two watches one for the time in Moscow one for the time in Havana? That's me, but with the doomsday clock We're taking closer man, you know, I'm sorry. I didn't make a check. No, no, no, no, you good, man No, you good. Maybe I need to get two watches for the doomsday clock, too Shit, man. Well, you know when it hits zero, that's when democracy officially is dead. It dies in darkness So maybe you should reconsider that position Yeah, the languishing that's really what I'm expressing frustration over the long language. Yeah, that's the long languishing I'm just I'm sick of the long languishing just like How how like how much more do Americans have in them is really?

How like how much more do Americans have in them is really? The thing like I think about like the Social Security and Medicaid and stuff like that like those are those are popular programs It's not popular to cut those but like so I Guess but our Americans just gonna roll over and take it like it's on top of a war on top of a recession On you know what I'm saying? What is the languishing? We've been housebroken for just such a moment though. Exactly, exactly. Well, people will say that American people are resilient, but I don't think that's it.

I think we're just so inured to so much suffering, and decisions that are made without our input, that it's not so much as a lie over and take it kind of thing, more like a shrug your shoulders and say shit You know, that's just how it is man. Yeah, everybody I've ever met in my life that consider themselves a Rugged tell it like it is Individualist is actually the biggest like just well, that's just how shit goes sometimes just resigned to their fate You know, no, dude. It's again every accusation is a confession These are the same fucking people who were like screaming hysterically about FEMA camps ten years ago

And Trump's gonna be the one doing to do something. I mean resembling your worst nightmare Yeah, or what you said was they don't give they don't care about anything. They're cowards. They're unprincipled. They're dishonorable This is these are our fellow Americans. They have no honor Have no no honor We have no honor here. That is true man Well, I got nothing more to add there. It's a good note to go out I've already having a stroke again. That's probably had a mini one. No, that's good. Oh

Man, I just found it one parting I just found out that Randy fine guy who nobody knows who the fuck he is but just keep saying like weird little inflammatory things who as Jake from Pendejo time said he's built like a lunch lady You know fuckers from Lexington originally graduated from Henry Clay High School is what yeah Wow now I feel even more justified and saying that I'm glad his arterial plaques or heart whatever I said about Wait, oh wait. There's another thing. I forgot to mention about that Ted Cruz interview. I forgot about this um Tucker Carlson

Basically Ted Cruz said that the Israel that exists today is literally the same Israel that existed 2,000 years ago. Yo peasant mindset. I'm telling you Yes, everybody knows the house of David yeah ended up in Philadelphia, so Because he has this quick tweet he says and yes Tucker really argued that when the Bible says Israel It doesn't mean Israel. I saw you dude. Well, is it Ted Cruz's dad and he was dominionist Yeah, I think so like these kind of part of kind of an evangelical cult. You know what I mean, so that makes sense that Ted would be cult you know what I mean so that makes sense that Ted would be the you know

Their voice in the halls of power Jesus I would say that if Ted Cruz's father got tortured by Batista clearly Batista didn't go far enough She got went a little further before he decamped to Daytona Beach How bad do you have to be to be tortured by Batista, man? Yo, for real, man. Yeah, how annoying, how annoying is that? It's not like his father was left with you or anything like that.

Maybe he's just really annoying. Yeah, my father was tortured by him. Oh, dude, the delivery. The delivery on that one kills me. It's like that one clip of Kanye where he's talking about like the Jewish people and he's like, you know what I'm talking about? You know what kind of doctor it was. Maybe it was doctors? I'm not even sure. It was a Jewish doctor.

It was the same delivery. He goes, my father was tortured by Fidel. I hate communism. Actually, he was tortured by a fetish that I want to say what kind of doctor but he looked away and looked at the other direction when he said it like it was a parenthetical punctuation of some shit. Man. Well. Oh, man. Jesus, man. Oh, shit. Well, if that's the case, then you

have to acknowledge Terry Crews. If you really believe that, then your god is Palestinian, technically. He is from Bethlehem. He is a West Bank boy. So. It's true. You know.

It's true. That's the breaks. This is the mechanism by which white supremacy like just straight up like Nazi ideology becomes like Dejour back into American life. It's like yeah, I mean because once they go to a war with Iran this whole shit about like free speech on college campuses and BDS and all this it'll become Because I saw this during the war on terror it'll become Actually applicable to American like everyday Americans no longer just college campuses or workplaces and everything like it'll be like a totalizing

Surveillance system and system of control that will basically make it illegal for you to, I mean, because again, I mean, I saw how this went in like during the war on terror. It's not like they were shutting down left-wing magazines and stuff. Like there wasn't even really such a thing in the early 2000s. But their whole shit about like

getting rid of due process and free speech and all that that will kick into fucking overdrive if they go to war with Iran because they will that means they will have consigned the entire nation's not only future spiritually but like socioeconomically and just existentially to Israel at that point. The pact will have been finally consecrated. And so, all of those things that they've been threatening about the Bill of Rights, the moves they've been making, empowering ICE agents, having ICE agents show up in flannel shirts and balaclavas in communities,

and just kidnapping people off the streets will become even more commonplace and not only that, will become just part of governance. Will be law, it'll be legal. And so I think that those are the stakes. It's like if you value your personhood and autonomy as an individual and with your communities, you can expect those to be all gone as soon as America goes to war with Iran. You will not be able to speak out against it.

You especially won't be able to speak out against Israel because that's who we're going to war for. So it's like, all of that will be gone. You'll have no, again, freedom of movement, any kind of freedom at all. You can kiss it bye. You know what I was thinking is like, why are you that like at least in the lead-up to Iraq you had like You know a vibrant anti-war movement right like some of the biggest demonstrations like in an American history, right? You know and all over the world actually too

But I think coupled with this sort of surveillance and police state you know that'll have a chilling effect on that you know I mean Yeah You say the Shah's been rearing his head back and things That was the funniest thing to me the Financial Times had an article about him And they were like it was it was basically the gist of it was like The Shah Wants to make a play for Iran again the problem is that nobody cares like no no it's just I think it's his son it's not the way it's

not the one that was deposed so it's shot I started to say like god damn it's shawty. I started to say like god damn Yeah, it's shaw junior, but like not even the American government like once the fucking shaw to return I don't think like I think they want like some fucking vague then again Maybe they do now. I mean because like the neocons wanted like you know some You know vague like pro-democracy parliamentarian system for Iraq and and they probably wanted that for Iran too but I don't know if they feel that way now they may start now that they're all going towards the court Curtis Yarvin like we all need monarchies and shit

back maybe they will be pro-shaw and Or alternatively they just might want to you know turn Iran into glass you know I mean Just make sure that no one can govern there because no one can live there. Yeah, I Think that's a good. I think that's literally what they're trying to do Aaron I mean, I think that they're just I think they're trying to destabilize Iranian society so much that it becomes Just yeah years of lead type shit basically. Which is what they're trying to do to American society as well. I mean, I think that they genuinely... I think that Israel is waging multi-fronted campaign to turn multiple places into just like basket case societies America being one of them obviously, but they are Israel is aided in America by the Christian

Evangelicals right like that's their role there in the sort of years of when to see America destroyed who also want to see America Destroyed right so it's but but the thing is and I think there if there's any room here for any kind of like optimism Or hope it's like if America does go to war with Iran But the thing is, and I think if there's any room here for any kind of like optimism or hope, it's like if America does go to war with Iran and they do try to like completely tamp down on what little rights we have left, I don't know if they fucking have the capacity for that, man. I don't know if you can wage a war in Iran. They could barely do it at the 60s at the height of American power. They could barely like keep the fucking wheels on like domestic dissent and organ, you know what I mean? Yeah, I don't think we have the capacity to fight on two fronts.

No, I don't. I don't think you can do co-intel and another war. And that's just today. Who the fuck knows you? Especially not with these morons in power. That's what I'm saying. Especially not with these morons in power like I saw that Pete Hegseth He's like Pete Hegseth is kind of like

finally acknowledged He doesn't know what the fuck he's doing and is handed over the reins on Iran to like the top general who's a This guy they called the gorilla his last name is Karilla and He's a huge Iran hawk like he's wanted war with Iran for a long time Why do they call him the gorilla? I guess his last name rhymes with it. Yeah, it's not. Yeah, yeah, I'm the gorilla.

It's because his last name is Gorilla-son. I think that's the key point. These people are fucking morons. I don't know if they can keep everything together. And this is just with Israel's current war. Who the fuck knows who they're gonna go to war with tomorrow. You know what I mean? Well, that's another cause for optimism is for all the cruelty and all the stuff That's part of this like you also have to keep in mind. We're also dealing with the complete mediocrities not even right like we're talking about like you know

fourth senior year of, you know, mediocre state school frat boy kind of level of governance. Well, I mean, these are people, I think you mentioned this Terrence, these earlier, these are people who don't really have an overarching ideology of philosophy that they're dedicated to like, you know, carrying out, you know, with some long term results. I think it's just like I mean it's basically like you know like late Nazi Germany You know like I mentioned before where everyone is on meth and killing themselves right? We're trying to enrich themselves personally right that video. I saw that Alex carp. He looks exuded to the fucking gills Like they

also that that meme Ted Cruz made What is the population of the Death Star Tucker Carlson asking Luke Skywalker like they're also so soy They're the most solely motherfuckers on the planet like I saw I saw a reply to that a quote tweet of that Which actually gives an accurate estimate of how many people were all the Death Star? It's like a million or some shit like that. So again, even when it comes to fictional shit, you're still wrong, brother. You still don't know what you did.

You stay here, you don't even know your Star Wars lore. Yeah, I think you're right. I don't even think these guys are, not only do they have a positive ideology of capitalism, they're all sort of neoliberaliberal washouts, like they have residual neoliberal beliefs fused together with a lot of like in times Christian evangelical beliefs, and they're not involved in like in my, I think you're right here too Tom, like I don't think any of them are like Skoll and Bones, like Secret Society guys either, like the

Bush gangster, you know know Bush cartel was like they guys jerked each other off in college while chugging King Cobra's that man listen when we get at the CIA we're really gonna you know and they've got this like weird bond you know yeah um all that all that to say though here's an interesting news item and we can close out. The US has removed Pentagon official Colonel Nathan McCormick from his position after he referred to Israel as a death cult and accused the US of acting as a proxy for Israel. You know what they say about colonels? They're usually the ones to lead military coups and hoontas I'll tell you right now I don't even know anything about this man's worldview but I'm willing to try any goddamn thing I will

throw my full unwavering support behind you Colonel if you want to go for a classic hoonta situation yeah I mean we might need that it could could not be worse would you rather would you rather live under a junta or live under a fucking moron? Coinbase Palantir who to 10 to 1 10 to 1 I would rather live under a military junta Especially if the guy leading it correctly diagnosis Israel is problem I mean Israel go for it We talked about this on the patreon on Monday But it's like them whining about not being able to leave the country like Israel for you know

Forbidding people from leaving the country. It's like brother. It's a death cult. That's like On a long enough timeline Why do you think they're making it impossible for Americans like restricting our mobility and stuff like that? Like they're stealing us all in here with them in the tomb They want us to die with them as their courtiers and like servants and slaves like I mean at the end of the day, too I mean, I know we bet you stole the Patriots But like, you know one you want your own citizens to die so that you can justify You know the insane shit that you're doing whether it's in Iran or whether it's in Gaza

But also too. I just feel like at that point it just metastasizes like a cancer, you know, like the death cult Like we're included in it, you know We're both spiraling down the drain America and Israel, you know Yeah, help us Colonel All right, is there anything I missed I'm sure I did All the things that are bad, yeah, I just want to talk about the Colonel That's the only thing I have I mean I should but as a final Colonel I mean I should as a final thought as a final thing I should say that like

Something that's been going on has been buried amongst all this is that like Israel has set up these food aid sites And they've just been like slaughtering like cattle in the fucking pins just hundreds of Palestinians a day Hundreds of Gazans a day. I mean like they're using the Iran you know war if you want to call it that as Pretense for completing the Holocaust that they're completing so it's just I Completing the Holocaust that they're completing so it's just I Think the thing is is like you know looking at all this you can deny you can be in denial about it you can Try to plead with it

You can try to do whatever you want Try to cope by saying like Iran is the biggest aggressor on the planet or and that's why we have to go to war with him or whatever the fact of the matter is is like we're we're Sacrificing every last bit of what is good about this country in the society and there's not a lot There's fewer and fewer every day But we're getting rid of even the last remaining ones for a country that is setting up food aid sites basically as bait traps to slaughter

helpless children in a concentration camp that they created. I mean dude when people say like you know Israel's our only ally in the Middle East you know and all this bullshit in Israel is this like bastion of democracy and a model that should be followed It's like what the fuck are you talking about man? It's a genocidal ethno state where they slaughtered I mean not even just like men women and children like but aid workers Fucking journalists like people that are supposed to help and report on what's happening Yeah, because they don't want people yeah, I don't know if y'all saw this, but did you see that? I think the Knesset voted on prohibiting

any sort of video capture of rockets, and it's like, okay, why? Do you not want people to see that you're vulnerable? Or maybe you're tired of the memes? I think it's two or three things. One of which I think they don't want people to see that they're vulnerable. Two, I think, yeah, maybe three things one of which I think they don't want people to see that they're vulnerable to I think yeah

Maybe they're tired of the memes the reason I saw the third one was that um Ben Gavir said that Iran uses it to be able to uses that information and data to be able to Plan their next targeted strikes or whatever which I don't know in the world of fucking Google Earth and shit and satellites Is that even true like I'm sure it's not I mean, I bet that's it Aaron. I bet they don't want people to see them weak and vulnerable That's really what it comes down to I mean, I've just seen beads of like Like radios just like you know Like against the backdrop of like all the Rockets, you know

I mean heading towards Tel Aviv and they put songs on top of them I mean, this is the kind of shit that Israelis were fucking doing right to Palestinians right? For the past like almost fucking two years now, but now when it happens to them, it's not funny anymore, right? Yeah When the it's not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, right? That's the the fucking yeah I think there was this one TikTok influencer who was making TikToks in the early days of the genocide, pretending to drink water

and flushing his toilet and basically mocking Palestinians who had none of those things because his country was genociding them. And now he's like, you posted this TikTok like tik-tok of like a fucking rocket Just slamming into the fucking earth like a few like a hundred yards down the street from it I think I think Iran needs to target that guy specifically Just level his whole entire block. I think that would be that'd be great his whole entire block. I think that would be great. Well, if there is one shade that's good, it's always been just regular rag-tag bunch of

ratchet asses that beat this empire back. You know what I mean? So do you think, yeah, well, let's log off here, but do you think Trump's going to join? You think he's going to launch, you think he's going, let's log off here, but do you think Trump's gonna join you think he's gonna launch You think he's gonna join in and and go to war? Maybe but I think Tom you've mentioned this before we talked about it Um, he wants to be liked, you know, and he knows that people don't like war, you know And also I just think he's honestly too fucking late I mean he wouldn't really have to do anything himself, you know

But I just think he's too fucking lazy and unmotivated to even try but or we could just keep you know Providing Israel doing it under the table right right the munitions Which is actually what we do I mean just the fact that we're selling them weapons that are now bombing Iran like yeah We already are engaged in the war you know They that I think Israel wants like a public deceleration They that I think Israel wants like a public declaration To like I said consecrate the pact right like they want like a public Declaration so that like America's political

institutions and norms and discourses all become essentially Like rah rah we have to support Israel like Like, they want that kind of, like, I think that would they, would they keep taking the under the table, or not even under the table, like 80 trillion dollars in weapons and money we give them every year to fund their healthcare and shit? Yes, of course they would, but I think they also want like a public, a very public, like, we are now the United States of America and Israel, right? Yeah, they want us to get down on one knee, you know, and profess our undying love and, you know, present the ring, you know. The unholy version of Trinidad and Tobago, that's what we're gonna be doing. It's just gonna be the US and Israel, you know what I mean?

The unholy version of Trinidad. Whether Trump does it or not, I don't know, man. Because I think my person, what do you think, Tom? Do you think he's gonna do it? I think, here's what my instinct tells me. Like most bullies, I think Trump likes to run his cocksucker and saber-rattle, but ultimately I think if he got punched in the face, like his whole worldview would crumble. You know what I mean? And I think he doesn't want to

like most narcissistic, I think he doesn't want that narrative he's built up for it to insulate himself to be cracked and You go to war you got to manage a war you got to be the mouthpiece for the war and all that kind of stuff Seems like a lot of work for a lazy ass that wants to just mostly play golf and be the main boy I seems like a lot of work for a lazy ass that wants to just mostly play golf and be the main boy. I say no, but they're going to dress it up in some kind of thing. And of course we're going to keep giving weapons to Israel. And yeah, I think the winning strategy here for us is you got to keep the pressure on, make Israel the pariah and just, you know, I think that like, I don't know.

Yeah, I don't know. I would say not. I would say it's much ado about nothing, but I don't think that means much for, you know. I don't know. I think the bigger question is could Israel, with our help, still carry out a war with Iran that we're not directly involved in?

And short of using a nuclear weapon, I don't think that they're built for that, frankly. Yeah, I agree. I think he's probably going to treat it like he's treated the tariffs. He'll just keep saying it one week like he will do it, and the next week like he won't, and just keep trying to kick the can down the road because again, he's a terrible leader actually. Like, objectively, he's bad at leading other people.

And because again, one of the hallmarks of a bad leader is indecision. Like just make your fucking choice. Just actually make your choice and live with it and then steer the ship through the choice you've made. But like this is America. You don't have to do that anymore. We've like been so coddled and we've been so comfortable

We don't have to lead we've not cultivated any of the values and norms of leadership So we don't have any good leaders anymore. That's why like Biden was a bad leader Obama in many ways was a bad leader And and obviously Trump like they're they he doesn't have any of the skills that would take It would take to be a good leader. So he's gonna keep trying to kick the can down the road, while Israel continues and ramps up its years of lead campaign within America. And you know, and they'll still keep doing those fucking ice raids and all that. And like, again, eventually all of those fucking destabilizations and contradictions will tumble into one another. And I think Israel will basically force America's hand

And that will allow the base to acquiesce and accept it because that's really the thing here It's like he doesn't give a fuck about what the Democrats think it's what his base things, right? And I know it closing out, but I just want to say don't you think too Maybe I could be wrong here, but don't you think too that at least when it comes to our foreign policy allegiance to Israel and our You know supplying them with weapons. Don't you think that like it's kind of automated, you know? Like it doesn't really need to be anyone at the wheel to allow these things to happen because the Czechs write themselves anyway, you know?

Right. I think you're right. It's... And like I said, I think Israel wants that public declaration. They'll probably try to keep pushing for that But what actually triggers it is the thing maybe when they maybe they'll maybe China will get involved and then they'll start bombing China, right like it's like with their nukes. I think that's yeah I mean it's a laser they are again there It's like Hitler at you know towards the end of the war It's like they're gonna just keep fighting starting more fights because the ultimate aim is to pull the United States in that's what they want

It's what they're gonna get eventually. They're gonna get a president who wants to do that Trump is probably the one is stupid enough to actually fucking do it, but who fucking knows man do it but who fucking knows man? Listen, if the adage that those who bark rarely bite is to be believed then I would not even try to bark up the China tree. Xi's a serious dude man, and he's a guy who doesn't say belligerent things. He sits back, he sits back, he sits back, but I tell you if you poked that bear then you know, I don't know what would happen really. We don't want that.

We don't want that I don't think. Alright well that about covers it for this week. I would encourage you all to please go check out the Patreon. The link is in the show notes. I hope you enjoy that.
