20210613 Cancel Culture Kills Creation

The creator of FNAF has come under fire by his fans for... being a pretty typical Republican and Christian. Cancel culture is run by the sort of people who just want to hurt others in the name of some fake moral crusade - no different than the Helen Lovejoys who yelled about violent videogames twenty years ago. Don't fall for their moral posturing.

	Good evening, folks.
	Welcome to the Sunday bonus live stream.
	Let's see if we can get this thing working.
	and we're gonna just presume it's not working and start by rebooting the device.
	So that time keeps on slipping forward into the future, doesn't it?
	Oh my god.
	How do people not get that this COVID nonsense is absolute nonsense?
	In America, you guys aren't wearing masks anymore, are you?
	We've got zero evidence that the masks do anything, and we've got a few, few scientific studies showing that the masks make COVID even worse.
	Germany, the German government is recommending that young people do not get the vaccine because there have been a lot of young people dying from heart attacks.
	See, apparently, it's something like the spike protein, it makes your heart muscles register as foreign, and so you get an autoimmune disorder where your body starts attacking the heart muscles, causing a heart attack.
	Or it could be the clotting problems from it, clotting in some areas, giving you a stroke, and then thinning your blood in other areas causing a heart attack.
	Who knows?
	Who knows?
	But yeah, Germany is saying young people should not get it.
	Well, here in North America, they're saying young people won't be allowed at university unless they get it.
	The whole thing is utterly beyond absurd.
	Now, oh my god, what?
	Right, I adjusted the layout.
	So I have to find D Live somewhere in here.
	There it is.
	Tap.
	The whole narrative is falling apart.
	It's been a year and a half, and I don't know anyone that's dead from the bloody plague.
	It's been a whole bunch of nothing.
	Charm is a cheat just followed.
	Well, thank you very much.
	And yet we still have people eagerly running around in masks.
	You know, there's that video went a little bit viral of some punk kid throwing an egg at a woman because she was opposed to the masks.
	So that this teenage kid throwing an egg at an adult woman.
	And it just, it struck me.
	This the way that the radical left absolutely loves to hide behind children.
	It's all quite disgusting.
	Oh, no, you need to be quiet.
	No talkie-talkie for me.
	Which way's down?
	There we go.
	Let's see.
	We got Virtuous Troll.
	That's a fantastic name.
	Jeepball, Soilennial, Turner and Hooch and Orbil.
	Got all of you here.
	Fantastic.
	Five people so far.
	Not bad for a Sunday bonus stream.
	Of course, we do regularly broadcast on Fridays, and we occasionally have bonus streams throughout the weeks.
	And this stream is brought to you by Mr. C, who very kindly just tossed me $25 on Patreon.
	So thank you very much.
	You can back me on PayPal.
	Sorry.
	$25 on PayPal.
	You can also back me on Patreon, and I do accept crypto as well.
	A link at the very top of my website, donate button.
	If and you feel like it.
	If and you don't, no problems whatsoever.
	These are tight times all around.
	Oh, that is a fantastic Alex Jones.
	Alex Jones is A-O-K.
	Oh, and look at that.
	We're up to 16 now.
	Beautiful.
	Alex Jones is a good guy.
	Joe Rogan is a good guy.
	Here's some news.
	Some dipwad in California, I believe.
	You know, where else?
	Paid to get somebody to write across the sky that Joe Rogan is only 5'3 in real life.
	Ooh.
	Yeah, I'm pretty sure he could still kick your ass.
	Jordan Peterson saw that and he retweeted, yeah, but he's eight foot in spirit.
	To which I replied, and after the first hit of DMT, he's 20 foot tall and made of radiation.
	I like Joe Rogan.
	I like the collection of weirdos that's sort of developing.
	You know, I'd like to hope I'm one of those weirdos because I'm a pretty weird guy.
	I qualify on that one.
	You got tinfoil hat Alex Jones, who he's like a broken clock that's right 24-7.
	You got Joe Rogan smoking his reefer and doing DMT.
	You got Professor Jordan Peterson, who is psychologically a liberal, who somehow became a speaker for the right wing.
	And, I mean, we don't have beautiful Ella in tonight.
	Ella is such a fantastic weirdo.
	Absolutely love Ella.
	Just got the rest of you weirdos in tonight.
	We got the cool weirdos, my friends.
	You know, it's so crazy to think that, like, I'm constantly labeled as some sort of right-wing hate speech.
	When I'm not even temperamentally right-wing.
	I'm temperamentally libertarian.
	But the radical left, the leftoids, have just gone So bizarre that anybody with any integrity whatsoever starts aligning with the right just because that side needs a little bit more support.
	You know, my last stream, I was pointing out.
	I know how well me and my buddy we've gotten to the philosophy, right?
	There you go.
	You got one of those really useful philosophy degrees.
	He knows his stuff.
	Yeah, he has a second degree that's actually useful as well.
	Much like myself.
	But I was pointing out in the last stream how oh, I'm an absolute hypocrite when it comes to politics.
	On the one hand, I really, really strongly endorse freedom of association.
	Generally speaking, I think you should be able to do business with whomever you want and not do business with whomever you don't want.
	I think that's a pretty fundamental freedom in life.
	That said, I think it's a stupid freedom to exercise.
	Like, I'm a huge supporter of freedom of speech.
	It doesn't mean you stand on the street corner yelling racial slurs constantly.
	Like, that's just rude and stupid and not very productive.
	Same thing, kicking people out of your business because you don't like them-that's a damn fool way to run your business.
	But I think it should be a right because the alternative is hiring quotas.
	And hiring quotas completely destroys meritocracy.
	Now you don't know if somebody's good or not.
	You don't know if you're a good employee or not.
	Because no one's allowed to tell you.
	There's a job I applied for about four or five months back, and I didn't get hired.
	And I'm like 95% certain it's because COVID-well, not COVID, but the reaction to COVID-has destroyed the industry, and it's like, you know, 20 applicants for every single job there.
	I'm 95% certain that's the reason.
	But I'm 5% worried it's my politics or my alleged politics, if you believe the radical left.
	The thing is, they can't tell me.
	If they told me it was my politics, I would be able to file a lawsuit against them.
	So I don't even get that accurate information.
	Yeah, hiring quotas, forced equality, just creates a massive environment of lies.
	And I would rather a bracing truth than a pleasing lie.
	But that being said, as much as I support that, I will fight tooth and nail against the vaccine passports.
	Which, I mean, from a certain point of view, ain't the vaccine passport just freedom of association?
	I only want to associate with people that got the vaccine.
	I mean, heck, I'm.
	I would probably not date somebody that had taken the vaccine.
	Right?
	They shit spike proteins man, and it's I'm a healthy guy.
	I'm not super worried about people shedding spike proteins.
	Although, pregnant women will frequently have miscarriages if they're around somebody that got the vaccine.
	That's from Pfizer's own study, by the way.
	So I wouldn't date somebody.
	But vaccine passports.
	No, I do not like vaccine passports one bit.
	And so I'll fight tooth and nail against them.
	Tooth and frickin' nail, I will fight the vaccine passports.
	And does that make me a hypocrite?
	Well, maybe.
	Or maybe trying to be perfect is worse than just trying to be good.
	I guess that's kind of what Big L and I were talking about, where you got on the one side, oh, what's it called?
	Theological moral philosophizing that tries to delineate the perfect thing to do, and it's so blindingly impossible that either you go insane trying to do it, or you just give up on being good entirely.
	The other extreme, you got the purely material focus of, shoot, I can't remember the words right now.
	Pragmatism, you know, the trolley problem, that garbage over there, which winds up being a snake eating its own tail, because you can never properly define what a hedon is.
	What is the good that you're trying to achieve with all of this?
	You can never properly define it.
	So you got these two extremely intellectual but impossible extremes.
	Whereas in the middle, in the middle world, you got virtue philosophy, which is trying to build up the individual character traits and trying to center things.
	Because virtue is all about being in the center.
	Courage is the middle ground between cowardice and too much risk-taking.
	It's the sweet middle.
	And it's easy to identify the extremes on it.
	But the middle, that one's hard.
	You're constantly readjusting course when you're in the middle.
	And as a society, it's like, yeah, we need to be somewhere between having a society with an ethos, with morality to it, with a purpose, with just some things we don't do.
	We don't do torture.
	We don't do that.
	And we try and do this.
	We try and be fair.
	We try and be equitable.
	But on the other side, we also recognize that we are just physical beings, right?
	And at some point, you got to get practical about things.
	You know, one of the things I've said about the Catholic Church, when people say, oh, the Catholic Church is corrupt, yeah, of course it's corrupt.
	It's an institution.
	Every institution is corrupt.
	All corruption happens within institutions.
	Nobody likes seeing how the sausage is made.
	Welcome to reality.
	As my fellow Canadian would say, not an argument.
	And so when it comes to the left-right political thing, and as I'm sure you guys are all very familiar with, the left and the right are primarily personality types.
	The left is high in openness, low in conscientiousness.
	The right is the exact opposite.
	And then you get the weirdos, like myself.
	High in openness, high in conscientiousness.
	So I don't fit in anywhere.
	But the left has gone radical.
	The left has turned into a cult.
	In fact, that's what we're going to be talking about today with cancel culture.
	And so, it doesn't matter if you kind of lean towards the left.
	I'm right in the middle, honestly.
	I love the military, love the order, love the discipline.
	I also love weird new stuff.
	It doesn't matter if you're in the middle.
	The right is the one that needs bolstering.
	Because you need both sides.
	A society that's nothing but rigid order is going to collapse, and one that's nothing but constant experimentation is going to collapse.
	And the left has become a cult.
	And it is experimenting with absolutely every damn fool notion that it can come up with.
	Klon McNoise, I freaking love that.
	Uh, the what is that?
	The Texas showdown with the cat added.
	That one's fantastic.
	The 12-year-old in the youth group I helped with received the vax.
	I couldn't help judging her parents a bit.
	Well, and you should have.
	You're not wrong to judge her parents.
	They absolutely failed.
	They failed the stupid test.
	Now, all right, if they were on the left-hand side of the bell curve, I wouldn't blame them.
	In fact, one of the things that makes me so angry about this society is that we are failing the people on the left-hand side of the bell curve, right?
	Like, left-hand side of the bell curve, it's not inhuman, okay?
	They're not, I mean, you get too far, like you get to Down syndrome, and you've got a special category of people that they are people, obviously, but they are not fit to run their own lives.
	So, they do need monitoring, they need hand-holding.
	So, I'm not dismissing anybody with a sub-100 IQ as being subhuman.
	What I'm saying is that sub-100 IQ people are smart enough to run their own lives, but they need to be able to trust the elites.
	And the elites that we have are absolutely letting those people down.
	We see it in with immigration, we see it with these vaccines.
	That stuff really outrages me.
	So, I wouldn't blame somebody sub-100 for doing what the TV told them.
	I mean, that's what they're supposed to do, right?
	Not everybody in the army can be a general.
	But if they're over 100, it's like no excuse.
	You failed the stupid test and you put your child at risk.
	No excuse.
	I said we're going to be talking about the radical left.
	We are going to be talking about the guy who created Five Nights at Freddy's.
	Please tell me you said that.
	Good, good.
	Saved the bookmarks.
	Scott Cawthorne.
	So he is, oh, he's from Houston, Texas.
	Good for him.
	Texas is a good place.
	It's a little bit too much for me, but I'm really glad Texas exists.
	And, you know, I wouldn't mind living in Texas.
	I'm more of a Nevada guy, or maybe Miami.
	I wouldn't mind living in Miami.
	But for those of you who missed it, he's the guy that created Five Nights at Freddy's.
	I assume you've all heard of that game if you haven't it's a It's a horror game where you're the night security guard at a Chuck E. Cheese knockoff and The robots come to life at night and are trying to kill you It's a ridiculous premise, bit of a jump scare sort of thing that, like, it just, it went viral.
	Not my sort of game.
	I hate jump scares.
	Jump scares stress me out so much.
	But it's a famous little game, interesting mechanics, and it went viral.
	Made the guy tons of money.
	Good for him.
	And he is a Christian and a Republican.
	And this came out recently.
	Somebody decided to dig up who he was donating money to.
	And they now hate him.
	The left, the radical left, is out for blood for this guy.
	And he penned an open letter to everybody.
	And this letter is just so fantastic.
	I'm going to read you the whole thing.
	He did not back down.
	He did not cry.
	He did not apologize.
	He stuck to his guns, the Texas way.
	It goes.
	My response and maybe last post.
	To say that the last few days have been surreal would be an understatement.
	I've debated greatly how best to address this, including not addressing it at all, but with so many people from the LGBT community in the fan base that I love, that's not an option.
	The candidates I supported included men, women, white people, black people, Republicans, and Democrats.
	I supported Tulsi Gabbard, a Democrat, even though I disagreed with her on several issues, because I felt she would have been a good and fair president.
	Now, this totally goes what I was saying, like the middle.
	Right?
	The reasonable, practical middle where we can hopefully get something done.
	And yes, I supported President Trump because I felt he was the best man to fuel a strong economy and stand up to America's enemies abroad, of which there are many.
	I'm a Republican, I'm a Christian, I'm pro-life, I believe in God.
	I also believe in equality and in science and in common sense.
	Despite what some may say, all those things can go together.
	That's not an apology or promise to change.
	It's the way it's always been.
	If I get canceled, then I get canceled.
	I don't do this, making video games, for the money anymore.
	I do it because I enjoy it.
	If people think I'm doing more harm than good now, then maybe it's better that I get canceled and retire.
	I would accept that.
	I've had a fulfilling career.
	Besides, most things that people can take from you are things that never had much value to begin with.
	And shoot, I'm sorry, that is not the whole letter.
	I was googling it on the tablet here.
	Yeah, nothing but responses to Scott coming up.
	But those are probably the best parts.
	Imagine that.
	Imagine a man puts forth the energy to create something.
	And hey, not everything that's created is good.
	I mean, it's one thing to critique something because it has flaws.
	Yeah, everything has flaws.
	Like, I've created quite a bit of stuff.
	And, you know, I'm not saying any of it's perfect.
	I'm not demanding praise from it.
	But when something you create gets attacked, not because of the creation itself, but because of who you are, well, you're not attacking me.
	You're not attacking Scott Cawthorne when you're doing that.
	you're attacking the very essence of creation itself.
	Scott created a video game that went viral.
	And a huge community grew up around it.
	And a lot of people have had a lot of fun with that creative act of his.
	And what does he get for it?
	He gets attacked for being a Republican.
	For being a Christian.
	And what do you think happens when you attack every single creator?
	We saw this a few years ago, where the stand-up comics were saying they will no longer do comedy on college campuses because the students just start freaking out and getting upset about everything.
	My favorite game, Fallout New Vegas.
	One of my favorite bits in New Vegas is where Veronica, she's a member of the Brotherhood of Steel, mentions that they are strongly pressured to reproduce.
	And Veronica is a lesbian.
	They're not a real fan of gays or lesbians because they are such a small collective and they almost never accept outsiders that it becomes very, very important that everybody have children.
	And this is just stated as an inevitable result of coming from such a small community.
	i mean this is an interesting trope that you find in a lot of fiction like in well not just in fiction but in real life as well You find it in fiction because it exists in real life.
	If you are the heir to a throne, then yes, you are going to be pressured to get married and be the head of state, whether or not you feel like it.
	You might want to go on military adventures.
	And, you know, with the British Crown, it's fairly standard that the Crown Prince does serve in the military and does go to war a couple of times.
	but they're not gonna let you take stupid risks.
	you're dreaming of being spec ops you don't get to be that if you're the crown prince you can have a couple of you go out a couple of times You show that you're not weak and callo, but then you're done.
	You're expected to be married.
	And even if you and your wife hate each other, you are expected to stay together.
	It's called keeping up appearances.
	You get immigrant families, particularly from India.
	They have a much stronger tradition of arranged marriage out there.
	And so that's a narrative you'll find in much fiction about being an immigrant and being expected to marry somebody that you were betrothed to before you ever met them.
	and yeah it can feel pretty oppressive but those arranged marriages are how your con your your family managed to ascend the social hierarchy to the point where they're at now and so there's it's good and bad I mean, it's life.
	Right?
	Wouldn't it be nice if everybody could be a billionaire basketball player?
	But the reality is that your family has these connections giving you those possibilities and you try and make the most of it.
	You try and make the best decisions that you can.
	And so in Fallout New Vegas, it makes perfect sense that the Brotherhood of Steel would be very focused on getting its members to reproduce.
	And so they take a rather dim view of lesbian relationships.
	And this is just put in the game as normal and natural.
	And if that were released today, there would, in all, well, I'm not going to say that people would freak out about it.
	because that's the other thing with the these leftoids is that they and by the way when i say leftoid i don't mean liberal I mean the progs, the SJWs, the crazy ones.
	they flip out on command.
	Most of these leftoids do not have the mental wherewithal to actually play a game with a narrative as complex as Fallout New Vegas and pick up on that fact about Veronica.
	They're not actually paying attention to the narrative.
	They're not paying attention to the details.
	They're just clicking through everything.
	So it would only become a major issue if one of the mainstream outlets decided to make it a mainstream issue.
	Same thing goes for Cawthorne.
	Nobody had any problem with Cawthorne until about a week ago.
	I mean, his political donations, they're a matter of public record, have been for years.
	There is nothing new there.
	But none of them decided to look it up.
	It's just a mob that obey, like if they turn on the screen for their two minutes of hate, and whatever shows up on the screen, that's what they hate.
	There's no principles behind it.
	There's no actual investigation going on with their part.
	Which actually kind of leads to a question.
	Do you think that this was just random?
	It could have just been random.
	Maybe one of these creeps was just poking through things and they happened to recognize the name Scott Cawthorne.
	And so they decided to start a two-minute hate against him for no reason.
	Or perhaps it was targeted.
	Perhaps some gamma male in Scott's life got all bent out of shape about a perceived insult.
	And he knew that, like, Scott had mentioned three years ago that he was donating to Tulsi Gabbard.
	And so this creep gamma male decided to blow up this news story to try and destroy him.
	Because, you know, that's something I've been through before.
	It is absolutely disgusting that we're allowing these people to have any sway whatsoever in civilization.
	They are vile, they are petty, they're nasty.
	Why the hell is anybody going along with these people?
	Yeah, it's no different.
	It really is no different psychologically than the Salem witch trials.
	This is something that Ryan Falk touched on about a year or two ago, I believe.
	He's talking about the causy mindset, right?
	The causey psychology.
	And back in the 90s, these were the Helen Lovejoy's from The Simpsons.
	Won't somebody please think of the children?
	They just want to turn every molehill into a mountain.
	They just want to find something to blindly follow.
	Some banner to rally under so that they can go commit cruelty against somebody else.
	And I'll tell you what, this is why I'm not too fond of the Radical Right, either.
	Now, the Radical Right isn't a danger right now.
	Okay, the radical right is not in power whatsoever.
	So we don't, like, 20 years ago, it was the radical right banning dildo stores.
	Okay?
	And so you'd have officer-friendly, you know, with a gut full of doughnuts, you know, carving out boxes of dildos to be burned on the tire fire.
	Because, you know, can't have a dildo store in town.
	that's going to corrupt the youth.
	What I notice about these causey people is they are purely focused on the physical, on the literal, as opposed to the figurative or the narrative.
	for example take those i was gonna say take those preachers those uh tv evangelist preachers from the 80s You guys remember those things?
	Back in the 80s, it was so weird, man.
	Like, you only had, what, maybe 15 channels on the TV back then?
	Imagine only having 15 websites to go to.
	And every so often, you'd turn on the TV, there'd be this weird guy in a suit yelling about Jesus for some reason.
	And so many of these guys wound up getting caught up in these sex scandals or money scandals or what have you.
	absolute bunch of hypocrites.
	No, I'm not explaining it right.
	not explaining it right.
	Man is a narrative animal.
	Christ spoke in stories.
	Christ didn't go around condemning that particular action.
	That action makes you evil.
	No, he explained through a narrative why you should be doing better.
	All actions happen within some sort of narrative context.
	Let's go back to Veronica in Fallout New Vegas.
	In Fallout New Vegas, she is part of a community.
	She's part of a larger narrative.
	She's dealt with some tragedy in her life.
	And, you know, like this is life.
	How do you deal with this?
	What's the correct solution for all of this?
	The SJW then countered that narrative, would just say, Brotherhood of Steel is anti-lesbian?
	They are evil!
	Black and white, and it's the action, it's the...
	It's the physical manifestation of things as opposed to the context of things.
	A father who abuses and hates his daughter because she's a lesbian.
	Like, that's a terrible, terrible father.
	That's a terrible thing to do.
	But a community where they desperately need children, and so there's strong social pressures to reproduce, and it's not anybody trying to be mean or trying to be cruel.
	You know, keep in mind, there's a lot of people in the Brotherhood of Steel that really supported Veronica.
	In fact, the main reason that she feels alienated from the Brotherhood of Steel has nothing to do with her lesbian lover.
	It has everything to do with Father Elijah, her mentor, himself becoming a reject and that stain kind of sticking around on her through no fault of her own.
	And also just being aware that the Brotherhood of Steel is going in the wrong direction in general.
	The whole lesbian thing, it's like, yeah, that kind of sucked.
	Yeah, my dad always made me work on cars and I wanted to work on computers.
	It kind of sucked, but it wasn't abuse.
	It wasn't like it wasn't that big of a deal as far as Veronica was concerned.
	But the SJW would look at that and see that as the big deal.
	The right-wing corollary.
	Do you remember about a year ago, there's that guy that murdered his parents and his brother because he was addicted to cam whores?
	Apparently the cam whore was in Bulgaria, which makes me ask the question: is this camhor working for that manosphere guy, Tate, because he runs a camhor studio out in Eastern Europe?
	Basically, this guy, he spent $150,000 on a camphor.
	He stole from his parents, he stole from his brother, and he was put into rehab for porn addiction.
	Didn't complete it, and he wound up murdering his family because of it.
	And he looks exactly like you would think a Coomer looks.
	Now the right wing, the radical right, which is, as I said, not in power right now, would absolutely, oh, we need to ban pornography.
	And as usual, I ask, how?
	How do you ban pornography when everybody has a porn studio in their pocket these days?
	Billions of people have looked at porn without getting ridiculously addicted to it and murdering their family.
	i'm pretty sure everybody here has and even if you banning porn would not have stopped this guy Right?
	Like his dysfunction, it's like porn is just the tip of the iceberg for it.
	It's just how it manifested.
	Right?
	If it hadn't been porn, it would have been something else entirely.
	And trying to blame porn or violent video games or what have you for any of this, you're completely missing the point.
	The same way that the SJW is attacking Cawthorne, what are you even trying to achieve?
	Are you trying to achieve anything?
	Do you have an end goal in mind?
	Do you have a purpose and a direction where you're headed?
	Or do you just want to murder people?
	Because it's really looking to me like you just have murder in your heart.
	And that's why I was talking about the 80s preachers.
	Right?
	Like, if you'd seen these guys, if you'd seen these vitriolic, in the name of Christ, rants of theirs, you'd look at that guy and say, there's no Christian charity in that heart.
	I don't know what you're drinking, but that is not the blood of Christ.
	let's see let's check some of the comments here below 100 iq the elites shouldn't have shipped their factory jobs overseas Yeah, exactly.
	Below 100 IQ is not useless, all right?
	It's, they are, you know, Peterson has pointed out that the Army can't find jobs for, I believe it's below 84.
	And so there's a certain degree that technological societies do require higher IQs.
	Which is one reason we should really stop importing low IQ third world immigrants to our countries.
	But if you can't find jobs for a lot of these people, right?
	If we can't structure our economy in such a way that people with IQs below 100 can find jobs, that's on us, that's not on them.
	There is so much that they can be useful at.
	They can fix a car, they can till a field, they can do the plumbing in their house.
	There is so much that these people are capable of.
	Right?
	99% of the fruits of intelligence are low-hanging.
	It's actually higher IQ that you run into the problem of like, what do we do with this person?
	We only need like five nuclear engineers in the country.
	So if society can't find something for them to do, that's on society, okay?
	We're not the...
	We're.
	We're not the ones running it.
	The idiots running things are not doing a good job.
	Please show off the new vape.
	I heard it was new and fancy.
	Oh, it was.
	This is it right here.
	It actually does seem to work a little bit better than the last vape.
	Like, I've refilled this thing a few times.
	Oh, it looks like I need to refill it again.
	Here, let's show it off.
	So, cool little feature on it.
	It's actually got a spring-mounted inlet.
	Meaning that you have to push in to refill the reservoir.
	And then it seals itself.
	So that is pretty cool.
	And you'll note, I don't know if you can see, but you see how clear that is?
	I've used this several times, and I'm not getting any of the burnt residue in it.
	So we'll see how long the cartridge head lasts.
	It's a Caliburn, fairly common brand.
	My last vape was an extremely rare brand.
	And the store I bought it didn't have any replacement mouthpieces for two weeks now, and nobody else did either, so I had to buy a new vape.
	Kind of annoying, actually.
	But I like this new store.
	It's actually, it's built out of a house.
	It's really just friendly and homey.
	The lady that runs it, she just loves nicotine.
	It's her own business, which I think is really cool.
	And there's a great Mexican place nearby.
	Oh, the other thing, too, is it's only got the breathing hole on one side.
	So right now, you have to pull hard, but you can also do it the other way around and pulls much more easily.
	Which I don't know why.
	Not a vape guy.
	If I were a vape guy, I think I'd have to be officially bisexual.
	A Maddie corrects my cultural hubris.
	Big misconception on Indian arranged marriages.
	Marriages aren't arranged from the cradle.
	Nowadays, most are arranged after you receive higher education.
	Which is, again, I wish we did more arranged marriage in Western culture.
	See, I guess back when it was just white people, we had norms that worked pretty well without arranged marriage.
	But it's not just white people anymore.
	And we need a little bit more, we need to look out for our own people a little bit more.
	I mean, it's just something as simple as, like, back in Hamilton, we had a lot of Italians, and they just helped me, like the elder Italians that I ran into at workplaces, just helped me discover my culture a lot more.
	They really help with that sense of self-identity.
	So not an exclusionary thing, but just a positive, reaffirming thing.
	And it says you can't even talk to a family doctor's son unless you are a doctor yourself or something comparable.
	Because they take the useless degree and work for the government.
	Some of the right are correct.
	Some of the higher IO alt-right need to join public service, become teachers.
	Higher IQ, alt-right, need to join the public service, become teachers, etc.
	Public Frog says she's a good Elvis Costello song.
	I prefer Veronica to Allison.
	Wait, who's Allison?
	It's more popular than Pompeii's Pocket Fisherman.
	Firehaps says the satanic panic types were overbearing, but ultimately were trying to maintain order and decency.
	The woke scolds are pushing society, destroying depravity, usually having to do with the sexualization of toddlers.
	I'd much rather go back to when Nancy Lovejoys were in charge.
	They were misguided, but fundamentally good.
	And see, this is where I would disagree.
	Is modernity being what it is, the love joys make a lot more sense, but they weren't doing it from a place of decency or charity.
	There's this movie they made us watch back in high school.
	What was it called?
	It was.
	I can't even remember.
	The title was a reference to jazz or beatniks or something like that.
	It was a movie about kids in Nazi Germany that listened to American-style jazz music and were rebelling against Dare Fuhrer Her.
	And the movie painted it as if everybody that supported Mustache Man was evil and brainwashed.
	And these punks that wore their Doc Martins and trench coats were the free thinkers that knew beforehand how terrible Uncle A was going to become.
	And when I think about that movie now, it's like, nah.
	Nah, I think they were just a bunch of punk kids.
	I think they were no different than the street kids that I knew when I was growing up in Hamilton.
	Like growing up, back when I was like 18, 19, living on my own.
	The sort of punk street kids that were just constantly irresponsible, constantly living off the charity of others, constantly pretending they were above it all and wiser than their time.
	When, no, they were just a bunch of little shits.
	And so this movie, it praised those street kids because, you know, with the thanks to the victors writing the history, we know that Mustache Man was exactly the same as the Red Skull, and so anybody that opposed him must have been super woke.
	Not pretty sure they were just mouthy little shits that would have been kicked out of the youth program for their for being deviant mutants, spiteful mutants.
	And the same thing goes for those hell and love joys, for the, I mean, look at the video game panics, for crying out loud.
	I mean, look at the video game panics, for crying out loud.
	Now, listen, those parents that were buying Grand Theft Auto for their kids, like, what are you doing?
	What the hell are you doing?
	That is not a video game for kids for crying out loud.
	Good lord.
	I know this one kid is like, what, eight?
	Something like that.
	His parents let him play Call of Duty.
	not a game for kids so yeah that's you got having a rating system for video games is a good idea and kids should not be playing adult video games.
	But the people that were trying to blame Columbine on Dune, absolutely ridiculous.
	Like, you're missing the point.
	These SJWs, what did the SJWs explicitly endorse?
	Why are they angry at Cawthorn?
	Well, they're angry at him.
	I need some more ice because he is allegedly opposed to the LGBT.
	Be right back.
	To gay people is cruelty, period.
	What did Christ say to the prostitute?
	Let he who is without sin throw the first stone.
	Didn't seem super eager to go start attacking somebody for everybody is just riddled with sin.
	He has better things to do than attack her.
	So yeah, anybody that's attacking the LGBT, anybody that's being vicious, is like, yeah, that's not good behavior.
	it's not Christian behavior.
	And so let's say, actually, this is quite plausible.
	With everything that's going on right now with the trans kids, with the sheer decadence of LGBT parades and the insistence that kids need to see it and they need to be taught how to have anal sex, it is not unlikely that we are going to flip-flop into a heavily sexually repressive society in about, you know, 15, 20 years.
	Hell, sooner, who knows.
	And in that sexually repressive society, it might be very, it might be laudable, according to contemporary mores, to be abusive to homosexuals, because they're all child molesters, right?
	It's okay to throw stones at them.
	And if that were to come about in 10, 15 years, people might look back to the SJWs of today and say, wow, they really saw where things are going.
	They were enlightened because they supported LGBT rights and they opposed evil totalitarians like Cawthorne.
	Except we're living in this time and we can look at those people and say, no, you don't care about gay rights.
	You just want to hate somebody.
	And the same thing goes for the Love Joys of 20 years ago.
	They were not actually caring about children.
	They were smothering children.
	And ironically, maybe not.
	I don't even know if ironic is the right word, because this is how it always goes.
	By so freaking out over video games causing Columbine, they guaranteed a rebellious Marilyn Manson epoch in the youth.
	If you go back and watch those Devil Reefer movies that they had back in the 50s and 60s, and now we've legalized the damn, and hey, it was legal 100 years ago to smoke marijuana.
	Now it's legal again.
	We look back at that moral panic from the 1950s and say, what the hell is wrong with these people?
	Same thing with prohibition in the 20s.
	And prohibition did not reduce alcoholism at all.
	In fact, it made it a lot worse, and a lot of people died because of it.
	That's the Cosi type.
	They don't care what the effects of their actions are.
	They just want to hate somebody.
	And so, while they're guys like Rush Limbaugh, Rush Limbaugh is solid, right?
	And he would have been on that side back in the day.
	Same way, there's good look.
	like I've got trans friends right I've got actually I don't have any gay or lesbian friends Not close anyway.
	But they're not SJWs.
	Right?
	This is what I'm saying.
	So there's these SJWs.
	Pay attention to the SJWs.
	Those are the Cosie types.
	And the radical types on the right, they're just as bad.
	They're just not in charge right now.
	And I think there's also, there's a huge group that bounces back and forth between them.
	You got the leaders that are really committed to it, and they're mostly psychopathic, I think.
	Right?
	The same way the preachers in the 80s were, they were lying through their teeth.
	absolutely lying through their teeth.
	And in today's age, you got the- Anita Sarkeesian sh- She doesn't give a shit about video games.
	She cares.
	The only color she cares about is green.
	But you got the mass of them that sway back and forth.
	And they're going to put on a totally different outfit in 15 years.
	They're green hair freaks right now.
	they're going to be radical right religious supremacists in another 15 years vodka or gin it is tequila actually So I stopped drinking tequila for a number of years because every time I drank it, the cops would show up.
	I mean, I never got arrested, but I should have been.
	But I'm older.
	I'm more chilled out now.
	So we'll see.
	hopefully no cops show up tonight and actually you know a Maddie says something fantastic She says, regarding the love joys.
	Agreed, a little extra, but actually were worried about the innocence of kids.
	See, I think those ones were too worried about the innocence of children.
	That's the smothering I'm talking about.
	In fact, in fact, I would even say that leads into where we are right now.
	I was talking to an acquaintance, and his son was turning 14.
	And I said to him, he's turned 14.
	You know what?
	He's about ready for his first pocket knife, isn't he?
	I might buy him a Swiss Army knife for his birthday.
	He said, oh no, no, he's not ready for that.
	What are you talking about?
	He's 14.
	And the guy said, let me rephrase.
	I was ready for a pocket knife at 14.
	He isn't.
	Ah.
	Gotcha, and understand, and I agree.
	And actually, this also fits with the Strauss-Howe generational theory.
	Us Gen Xers were under-protected as children.
	We were the latchkey kids.
	We were looking out for ourselves.
	The Zoomers, an artist generation, are overprotected as children.
	They never got to go out and play in the dirt and develop natural immunities things.
	So these hell and love joys go out and overprotect the kids, and the kids are terrified of everything.
	When I look at this freak out over, oh my god, Scott Cawthorne, he's a Republican and a Christian.
	Ooh, scary.
	We need to cancel him.
	One of the things that Jordan Peterson has talked about is how if you are highly neurotic, as in you feel a lot of negative emotion, well, you don't seem to be able to change that.
	If you're a neurotic person, you're kind of stuck being a neurotic person.
	I mean, LSD might be able to help you a little bit, assuming it's a good trip and you're ready for it.
	But generally speaking, who you are is who you are.
	You're stuck with that.
	So you can't become less neurotic, but you can become strong enough to deal with your neuroticism.
	Now, part of this would be through lifestyle alterations.
	you're really neurotic about having the bills paid on time then come up with a good system to keep track of all your bills so that you're chilled out.
	See I'm funny I'm actually low in neuroticism aside from like two categories where I'm extremely high in neuroticism.
	And so it's about creating a lifestyle where that neuroticism doesn't bother me anymore.
	i mean it's kind of a joke how many freaking weapons i have and like i'm not a violent person but i'm a like i'm very high in the anger bit of neuroticism which which is not again that's not violence Violence is lack of conscientiousness, right?
	Lack of self-control.
	And I have very high self-control.
	But I also have very high anger.
	And anger is a response to injustice.
	So I'm the guy that if I see somebody cut in line, I call them out.
	Hey, buddy, what are you doing, pal?
	That's what gets my anger going.
	And because I'm the sort of guy that has a strong sense of justice, to feel secure, I need to be capable of enacting justice.
	So do I actually need this many weapons?
	Probably not.
	Oh my goodness.
	Heck, the last time I actually used force was against that dog fight, right?
	And I had a knife in my back pocket, but I didn't want to hurt the dog.
	So instead I got two fingers broken and I can't play guitar anymore.
	But it's the psychological security of knowing that if the worst comes to pass, I can deal with it.
	And so that's how I deal with my own neuroticism right there.
	I strengthen myself environmentally by having weapons, but also psychologically by, like when I was younger, adapting myself to high-stress violence scenarios.
	Right?
	That's why I joined the military.
	It's why I joined the football team.
	So that now, like, I'm not going to say that a violent situation doesn't cause fear and panic.
	Like, of course it does.
	But I'm accustomed to it at this point.
	I know how to deal with it.
	So I'm just as neurotic as I was 20 years ago.
	But now I'm strong enough that the neuroticism doesn't bother me.
	But when we look at these SJWs, these are not strong people.
	These are people that have been molly-coddled their entire life.
	They were never taught how to be tough.
	And so they get the slightest little upset to their environment, and they have an absolute massive freakout.
	And this is a result of the over-parenting from the love joys out there.
	The smothering, the hugbox.
	Another clip that's gone viral recently is these kids in high school where the extremely feminine teachers just encouraging these kids to be like one kid's being a cat boy.
	And it's like, oh, it's so cute that you're a cat boy.
	It's like, you realize that guy might need to crawl across no man's land while holding his intestines in to defeat the enemy at some point?
	Do you think that you're prepping him to be able to do that?
	Because it's kind of something men need to do.
	So, yeah, over-parenting and weakness.
	That's the, what's going on with these kids.
	Are comments working?
	Well, I see that comment.
	Leave a new comment.
	Latest one from Firehouse.
	We're running out of comments for me to read.
	Public Frog says, no, they aren't.
	I can't read what you typed.
	Elvis Costello sang about Allison.
	I'm not that good on my classic, my classical music.
	You can call me anything you want, but my name is Veronica.
	Oh, that's that's sexy.
	That's romantic.
	Best Elvis Costello line is: you want her broken with her mouth wife with her mouth wide open because she's this year's girl.
	Ooh, painfully beautiful.
	That if you're right, Irini, then hopefully, we'll start seeing Generation Alpha rebelling against their millennial parents in five years.
	We respect women here a lot.
	Okay, good.
	aren't working then.
	So what would be the equivalent era for this?
	We go back 80 years.
	1940.
	Yeah, that was a boom time though, wasn't it?
	part of a longer cycle oh man there's so much up in the air right now That's been the really stressful part of the past year and a half: is how unpredictable everything has been.
	Hey, one lemon.
	Thank you very much, Turner and Hooch.
	I only respect powerful wham-ends because Irini's argument was waterproof.
	I was kind of mean to that lady that showed up last time.
	Should have been nicer to her.
	I was in a mood that week.
	I just, you know, I was saying to Trad Pat Cat on just on Twitter.
	I was saying to him, like, he said that if your wife earns more than you earn and she works outside of the home, then you're the wife.
	She's the husband.
	And he's completely bang on correct.
	But that's also the demographic reality we're working under right now.
	Now, it's not as simplistic as a husband needs to earn more money than his wife.
	For example, let's say your wife is an accountant and makes really good money doing the accounting job.
	Well, you, the husband, you maintain the vehicles, you maintain the house, you run a profitable farm, and you have another side business on top of that.
	So you're a busy husband that's doing stuff and like maintaining the home.
	I'm actually thinking about my stepdad here.
	He's a retired engineer, and he just constantly rebuilds houses.
	He's insane.
	Like, you should see the stuff he does.
	It's mind-boggling how good he is at design and implementation of houses.
	It's ridiculous.
	He turned this dirty garage into this palatial multi-bedroom suite.
	It's rude.
	Absurd.
	So if you're doing that, like that's not, you know, your tax bracket doesn't reflect that, but like, you're the man if you're doing all of that.
	So it's not as simple as I'm not boiling it down to, I have to earn more money.
	Yeah, that's how they're going to go, P-Way.
	It's like, no, no, the name's Leo, first of all.
	And I'm not a pickup artist, nor have I ever been.
	Christ.
	But generally speaking, generally speaking, women expect the man to earn more money than them.
	And yet, we are working under these demographic realities, these affirmative action programs that make it.
	Well, it was hard to earn more money than your wife 10 years ago.
	And now that we are going fully woke, we're going fully anti-white.
	A lot of jobs won't hire you if you're a white man.
	All this evidence coming in is anecdotal so far, but what do you expect when speaking the truth is literally illegal.
	So he's right to say that, but what the hell are we supposed to do about it?
	And so I was just that whole demographic reality kind of had me in a bad mood a couple of weeks ago when that lady showed up and I was a little bit less gracious to her than I should have been.
	She seemed like a nice lady.
	Yeah, the problem is it's for every actual powerful, cool chick that you have, there's nine that are just affirmative actions.
	See, Amadi says, in my state, I remember when I was 15, and all the adults were talking about how the driving age should be 18 years old.
	That's exactly what I'm talking about.
	Of course, all these adults got their licenses when they were 16.
	The adults said they grew up so much between 16 and 18.
	I argued back they'd been driving for two years.
	They said my mind would be changed when I became an adult, but nope.
	16 should be able to drive.
	Yeah, and it's this is one of the things that really drove me nuts in the early aughts, okay?
	Because the early aughts is when we started having all these progressive standards for what you're allowed to do.
	They introduced a graduated driving license system, which that really screwed me over because I wasn't living with my folks.
	I like you had the 16 where you're only allowed to drive with an adult in the car.
	And you had to do that for two years or whatever.
	I forget the details, but that works great if you're living at home.
	That works great if you come from an intact family.
	So at the same time, they're destroying the intact family, they're passing all this legislation that requires an intact family.
	so you're getting nailed from both ends on it.
	You know, smoking bylaws are the same sort of thing.
	Like, shit, if you don't want it's your restaurant.
	smoke or don't smoke nope nope we're gonna have all these legislations that just screw everybody around Overprotection.
	Turner and Hooch says, I respect many OnlyFans models.
	50 years ago, most high schools had rifle shooting teams.
	Now, absolute thing of the past.
	As if, again, this is no different than the pornography argument.
	Now, if you want to have a conversation about whether or not pornography is moral, very legitimate conversation to have.
	But you know what?
	If you're some girl growing up in Hollywood from a single mother household and that's the only thing on the table, that's the only thing on the table, ain't it?
	Let's go save them from themselves.
	Fuck off.
	Now, I've mentioned before, I had the opportunity to go into pornography as a producer.
	And, you know, sometimes I'm like, why didn't I take that?
	I'd have so much more money these days.
	But I really think it was the right choice.
	There's a lot of unpleasantness in that industry.
	A lot of trauma with the people that go into that industry.
	That, you know, there's no reason for me to be going into that.
	That said, banning it.
	Well, they're going to be prostitutes now.
	I'm not interested in trying to protect people from themselves.
	protecting people from themselves almost always makes the situation worse.
	So yeah, it's not the guns that cause gun violence.
	Single mother households.
	It's children that were never taught to be strong.
	What sort of kid goes up and shoots up a school?
	A kid that's been bullied mercilessly.
	And why have they been bullied?
	Because they were never taught to stand up for themselves.
	But rather than trying to make the kids stronger, we're trying to make the world safer.
	All that does is make the kids weaker and inevitably makes the world worse.
	Guns, pornography, violent video games.
	Yeah, we are.
	What is this burger gang, says Bill West with a giant frickin' image?
	Public Frog says, when I was a kid, farmers' children were allowed to drive a tractor on the roads at 14.
	Also, you were allowed to get a job at 15.
	Mm-hmm.
	And you know, I used to look back pretty cynically at working at Subway, like what useful skills do you learn working at Subway.
	You know what?
	You learn to show up on time.
	You learn that shut up and do your job.
	Quite frankly, I don't think you could find a single one of these SJWs that had a job as a teenager.
	A job where they delivered papers and had to wake up at 4.30 a.m.
	A job where they had to clean the toilets of McDonald's, and I don't care how you feel, go do it.
	It sucks doing that.
	Oh man, I remember like the first full day of work I had, I still remember that day because I was completely overwhelmed.
	I had never had to, and it's just, I know, I was just thinking Subway sandwiches, but it was overwhelming.
	Just like this constant, oh, the lunch rush was there.
	Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
	You don't get a moment to breathe, a moment to think.
	Nobody cares that you're suffering.
	Just make another damn sandwich.
	And don't offend the customers.
	It's very stressful.
	It's not fun.
	Oh my god, I have so many memories from how much I hated that job.
	And yet, at the end of it, it's like, I survived that.
	I survived that.
	I did my job, and I'm proud of myself.
	Even if I hated doing it, I'm a pretty cool dude for doing my job.
	None of these SJWs ever had a demanding job when they were a kid.
	Not even as demanding as fast food, which in the grand...
	Yeah, it's a pretty easy job in the grand scheme of things.
	And he says, now people are freaking out because Burger King figured out that a 14-year-old can flip a burger.
	call it?
	Child labor.
	Absurd.
	That's stupid.
	I don't feel too sorry for Burger King because they thought they would get a fire sale on labor after all small businesses were burned out.
	Didn't think the Dems would screw them over by giving them a bunch of welfare.
	Oh, so that's what happened.
	God, they just, the legislators just make everything worse.
	Just imagine being in there and having to feel the smell of the room.
	Davis would have made some class A-level porn.
	Now we just get crossbow porn.
	Yeah, pretty much.
	Oh man, the.
	Man, the screwed up porn I would have made.
	We would have had so many porn addicts.
	Yeah, I think that was my 40 pieces of silver.
	You know, speaking of being a narrative species.
	Yeah, I must be getting older because I'm coming back around to all the things I used to believe in.
	It's like when you're a kid, you believe that you believe in stories and mythology and adventure and all of that.
	Then you grow up, you're like, it's all bullshit.
	There's no meaning to life.
	You show up, you do your job, then you die.
	But now I'm getting older again.
	And I'm starting to see that narrative show up.
	And it is amazing how many, how cheap people sell out for.
	40 pieces of silver to betray God.
	You couldn't have gotten a better offer than that.
	Couldn't have gotten 40 pieces of gold.
	40 ounces of silver.
	You gotta be kidding me.
	And you see it with people.
	You see things happen that would they sound like a bad daytime Christian television movie.
	They sound so cheesy that I can't even if I told you the story you guys wouldn't even believe me Where people completely sell themselves out they sell out anything they've ever stood for anything they ever can stand for and They do it for so cheap
	Yeah, and when you make that deal when you make that deal with the devil You immediately get everything that you think you wanted But it's all just sand falling between your fingertips Never goes anywhere
	Yeah, Vegas was definitely my offer of 40 pieces of silver My life would be a lot better and far more miserable right now if I'd taken that offer Oh, there's probably more offers coming up the road.
	That movie, The Devil's Advocate, that is such a fantastic movie.
	You know, I should come up with a list of movies that everybody needs to see at some point.
	There's the Requiem for a Dream.
	Every teenager needs to watch Requiem for a Dream.
	That movie leaves you with a spiritual hangover after you watch it.
	It's just awful.
	It's so is the worst tragedy I've ever seen Sickening like you want to keep your teenagers off drugs.
	Show them that movie.
	You don't keep them off drugs by scaring them with made-up bullshit.
	You show them that movie.
	You show them where the path of drug addiction actually leads, which is not the same as drug usage.
	Okay, drug usage and drug addiction are two extremely different things.
	The same way that watching pornography once in a while yeah, it's probably not good for you neither are Doritos versus murdering your family because you have a relationship with an e-girl from Bulgaria.
	Yeah, those are different things.
	The problem is when you're, when you're taking this simplistic black and white moral framework whether it's love, joy or the SJWs, when you're like that this is good, that is evil.
	You don't understand how evil happens.
	The beauty of something like Requiem For A Dream is it lays out how this decent, normal kid, a bunch of kids and the mothers, like it's everybody, how they absolutely destroy their lives through these little steps, through trying to get the free lunch, to try and get something for nothing.
	Probably my favorite part of that movie is the fact that the mother it's not drugs that destroys the mother.
	I mean, to a certain extent it's the amphetamine she's doing.
	She basically goes into a methamphetamine psychosis by the end of the movie.
	But it wasn't the drugs that did it.
	It was her television addiction.
	You know, it shows that the core of addiction is it's not drugs, it's not video games, it's not pornography, it's the psychology of addiction that goes into it.
	So there's one of them.
	There's one of the movies you need to absolutely watch.
	You need to understand what evil is, how evil manifests.
	not merely reject the behavior associated with evil.
	Make more ice.
	It's a whiskey ball ready?
	No, it's not.
	some of the water.
	Great movies?
	Oh, shoot, this bottle's empty.
	Oh, that's pathetic.
	That's absolutely pathetic.
	It's a good thing that I used to work at the Rileys.
	Semper Paratus was their motto.
	Much better.
	Ah, Maddie, donated one Levman.
	Ahmadi, you are lovely.
	let god show you how to get 40 000 pieces of silver but it takes time god does not care if you have any silver I don't know.
	I think God would be happy with you having more rather than less silver.
	Nobody can raise their consciousness without pain.
	Pain is the price of growth.
	I mean, anything worth doing is painful.
	Which again kind of goes back to this cancel culture and these SJWs.
	Do you think they get any satisfaction when they cancel somebody?
	Do you think they feel good about themselves?
	See, in the act of canceling, they certainly feel passionate.
	But I don't think they feel good once somebody's canceled.
	Honestly, it's the difference between sex and masturbation after masturbation you feel tired at best You don't really feel like you accomplished anything after masturbation.
	I mean, hey, you want to quit porn?
	You don't really feel any accomplishment after it, do you?
	Now, hey, if you just spent three months on the oil rigs, surrounded by smelly, sweaty dudes the whole time, and you want to crank one out when you get home just so you can go to sleep.
	Man, I'll get like, hey, all the power to you, buddy.
	You know, I'm not one of these.
	Again, I'm not going to turn the perfect into the enemy of the good.
	But you don't feel like a hero after you've jerked off to some porn.
	Now, do you?
	Now, if you're actually, you know, if you're with a lady, when you are done, it's like, oh my god, I feel fantastic.
	Let's cuddle and look into one another's eyes for a couple of hours and just be silly.
	Like, you feel so good when you have actual sex.
	And presumably, if you do it with somebody you're married to, it's even better.
	And so these SJWs, they get so worked up about cancel culture the same way if you've got 20 tabs of porn open on your computer.
	You're all worked up.
	You're feeling it pretty hard.
	But there's no satisfaction at the end of it.
	Because you're not actually making love to a woman.
	And these SJWs are not actually defeating an opponent.
	When you actually defeat an opponent, good, look, here's a problem.
	No one's been in a fist fight in 20 years.
	When I fought those two dogs, and had my hand ripped to shreds, and lost tons of blood, I had the biggest shit-eating grin on my face afterwards.
	That's the most fun I've had in about a decade.
	And even the same thing: when I take out the ground squirrels for my mom, I mean, like, I hate shooting them.
	They're such sweet little critters.
	They really are.
	They're just so cute and they're clean.
	And it's like, I just want to have them all as pets, right?
	But they're digging holes all over the yard.
	They need to go.
	I hate doing it.
	I really hate it when they don't die right away.
	And by right away, I mean like 15 seconds of death throws.
	You don't want to know the hard ones.
	I hate it.
	I hate seeing them suffer.
	there is satisfaction in the job well done.
	There's no satisfaction in getting somebody cancelled.
	There's no victory.
	There's no blood.
	There's no risk for the person doing it.
	They're part of a blind mob, which is why, right after they get one person canceled, they need to go after another.
	This is why they demand apologies.
	Okay?
	Because when you apologize to them, it's admitting that they hurt you.
	And that's not the same thing as actually winning a fight, but it's close.
	Right?
	They desperately, desperately want to make somebody else feel pain.
	And if you pull a cough arm and you don't apologize.
	By the way, again, what a great letter he wrote.
	On the one hand, it's and like, and Lord, hey, listen, I've been through it a few times myself, okay?
	Trying to keep your wits together when one of the things that wasn't mentioned in that curated letter that I read was that his wife, who is pregnant, is scared because they've been receiving death threats at their home.
	Yeah, of course the mainstream media left that part out.
	Threatening a pregnant woman.
	Very brave.
	When you're getting attacked by the mob like that, it's, well, it's just as difficult the first time you've been in a fight.
	Your stress level goes out the roof.
	You start freaking out.
	It's very, very difficult to find the happy middle ground where virtue lies between defending yourself, but not over defending yourself.
	When people are just spreading lies about you all over the place.
	Like when Cawthorne said, at first I thought I might just ignore completely.
	That's what I did with Thunderfoot.
	When Thunderfoot came after me, it was so fucking stressful that I didn't defend myself.
	And I should have.
	I mean, I didn't over-defend myself, which also would have been a mistake, but I underdefended myself.
	Cawthorne really found that happy middle.
	Where he stated, like, yeah, I'm a Republican, but I've donated to white, black, male, female.
	I've even donated to Democrats.
	Yeah, I'm Christian.
	I'm pro-life.
	But that doesn't mean I'm anti-science.
	Never has.
	That was a great, great letter.
	And by writing that letter, and, you know, defending himself, because they spread so many lies about you.
	Anytime the crowd comes after you, they twist every single thing you've said to try and make you out to be a monster.
	And to a certain extent, you need to address that.
	And he did.
	But he didn't apologize.
	He didn't say, please don't call me a Nazi.
	I hate the Nazis so much.
	No, he addressed it, but that's it.
	He didn't apologize.
	they didn't smell blood in the water.
	And by doing so he exposes them for who and what they are.
	vicious and cruel and cowardly.
	And this is a goddamn irony.
	If they would stop being cowardly, if they would be open about their hostility, well, guess what, folks?
	Hostility is not a crime.
	Aggression is not a sin.
	Cowardice is.
	Aggression isn't if they and their bloodlust, if they were to go openly, do this like, let's say, let's say you know what that, that little SJW, not so little that, that fat SJW freak that ruined that date for me back in the day,
	month or two ago.
	If that guy challenged me to a fight see, that's the problem I couldn't hit him first, otherwise I go to jail.
	But if he challenged me to a fight I would have kicked his ass.
	But then I would have picked him up and said, you know what man, you put your money where your mouth was, didn't you?
	That's pretty freaking cool and you lost the fight but you're tougher now.
	That would have been ballsy, that would have been virtuous, would have been misguided, but it would have been virtuous.
	There would have been a little edge of heroism in that and he would have become a better man.
	these sjws their cancel culture actually risked something because the thing you don't get to be aggressive without risking something they're trying to have their cake and eat it too And that's what pornography is.
	It's trying to have your cake and eat it too.
	Trying to get off without having to do the work of actually meeting another human being and bonding with them.
	That's that's difficult.
	That's risky.
	That's vulnerable.
	So even when the SJWs win, they lose because they don't get the satisfaction they're looking for.
	Let's see.
	Maddie says, by the way guys, I love all the comments, but I try and read the best ones.
	Bill West, love you man, and yeah that I kind of addressed what you said already.
	Maddie says, didn't know that both professor and doctor derived from the church.
	See, I knew professor.
	professor is one who professes the truth didn't know about dog although i guess it makes sense I know that.
	Well, the whole university system was developed by the Catholic Church in the first place.
	So anytime you think about the Catholic church being corrupt and and suppressing and whatnot, it was the Catholic church that came up with the idea of a devil's argument, that even the devil needs an advocate, which is something these, these radical leftists actually.
	This is a big thing they're.
	They're now very strongly opposed to devil's advocate.
	No, the devil doesn't need an advocate.
	You just should.
	You should just cancel the devil, Which goes to show you the same hubristic Protestant roots.
	This purity culture to the whole thing.
	No, I don't want to hang out with people that are all pure.
	I don't trust pure people because there ain't a man born aside from Christ who didn't have original sin.
	There ain't nobody pure.
	It's nothing but us chickens.
	I want to hang out with sinners that love virtue.
	But yeah, it was the Catholic Church.
	They figured out devil's advocate.
	They also figured out professorial independence, which was the original root of freedom of speech.
	That if somebody has proven themselves to be of good character, then they should always have the benefit of the doubt.
	That we should let our professors explore radical.
	Possibly even.
	Oh my goodness, what's the word?
	I was trying to delay while I remembered the word.
	Possibly even heretical lines of thought.
	Because even the devil needs an advocate.
	We always need to question ourselves.
	And yeah, I guess Doctor originally came from the Catholic University system, so.
	Doctor, Dr., where did that come from?
	You need to look up that etymology.
	A man goes to the pain, says Bill West.
	I mean, there's seeking pain out of masochism, but there's just something wonderful about feeling your blood pulse and going 110% until...
	This is a metric I've never seen properly explored in video.
	Like, you sort of get it in some of the JRPGs where you run out of stamina and the enemy runs out of stamina and you can't attack for a couple of rounds, but like when you're really in a fight and all the combatants are beyond fucking exhausted and like both, like you're staring at each other, like, I'm going to keep fighting you after I catch my breath.
	It is absolutely wild how your body goes up to 120% in a fight.
	Yeah, you run towards the pain.
	Is AZ seeding variants through their vaccine?
	AZ who is AZ and yes if we got 200 followers we are at no it doesn't say right No, it does not say how many follow-ups 178.
	Hey, 22 more followers.
	And yeah, our DVD collection gets upgraded to Blu-ray.
	Actually, not sure what happens, but something happens if we get more viewers.
	More subscribers, I should say.
	So please like, comment, and subscribe.
	And by the way, I am re-uploading all of the live streams on Spreaker.
	I think it's called Spreaker.
	Anyway, they're on my website.
	And so if you miss the live stream or if it's getting too late, you're going to bed because you're a sane person with a real job, you can catch it on the website afterwards.
	And as a huge bonus, it won't burn up the data on your smartphone.
	Because we just do audio for the re-ups.
	Bring back dueling, says a Maddie.
	Night fight shouldn't be reserved for just 13-year-old black girls.
	Yeah, we...
	I mean, there's an interesting history to it.
	The reason they got rid of dueling is because they too many upper-class men, like high IQ men, were losing their lives.
	Possibly part of the problem was that the lower classes wouldn't duel officially.
	They just get into knife fights.
	And back then, we didn't have this omnipresent police force.
	Oh my god.
	Yeah, what I hate about modern policing, it's the omnipresence of it.
	There was a New Grams video where we're really going back in the day.
	What the hell is this cause?
	It was like this yellow-faced happy shithead that caused problems.
	And his conscience was a fat old drunk guy sitting in an armchair like this.
	And he was going, God, I hate you so much.
	And one episode, the old fat, drunk guy conscience of the idiot happy face character said, habeas corpus, show me the body.
	Which is not what habeas corpus means.
	Complete misinterpret.
	I mean, that's literally what it means.
	Show me the body.
	Have the body.
	Habeas corpus.
	It's not what it means in legal terms.
	But it touched on something that I think is very intrinsic to legal systems.
	The Western legal system is premised upon the king's peace.
	Keep the king's peace.
	As in the king just wants to chill and you're harshing his mellow right now.
	Don't harsh the king's mellow.
	And so the whole legal system that we have is based upon not harshing the king's mellow.
	And we built this legal system before we had modern surveillance technology.
	So, for example, if you roll a stop sign at 3 a.m. in the middle of nowhere when you can see, oh, there's no traffic anywhere, I'm gonna roll this stop sign.
	You ain't harsh in the king's mellow when you do that.
	And if you're at a house party, somebody gets out of line, and you express your opinion in a slightly physical way, but there ain't no body, there ain't no crime.
	Habeas corpus, show me the body, show me the crime.
	Because if you didn't harsh the king's mellow, you didn't commit a crime.
	But these days, the legal system has become far too prevalent and shoves its nose into every damn situation it comes across.
	I got a problem with this.
	If I ain't harsh in the King's Mellow, if I ain't causing problem for an uninvolved party, if there ain't no harm...
	There ain't no foul.
	Yet, we have a legal system that's constantly looking for something to be upset about.
	I mean, hell, this goes back to the SJWs, too.
	Like, if you really hate Scott Cawthorne's political donations that much, don't buy his damn video game.
	I mean, I take pretty big issue with what Coke said about white people.
	So, I'm never buying Coca-Cola again.
	And by the way, that boycott is sticking.
	They really screwed up there.
	Maybe if they make a public apology to white people and they say that white people have done many great things and they should be proud of their heritage, they should be proud of their skin color.
	then I will consider buying Coca-Cola again.
	But, you know, I guess to go back to the original comment that started off this from Amadi, bring back dueling.
	Night fights shouldn't be reserved for just 13-year-old black girls.
	Yeah, guess what?
	If there's a dead body, then you got a complaint, don't you?
	If there's a dead body, better bring in the legal system to sort things out.
	Because otherwise, you get vendettas, and that's just nasty for everybody.
	The people who got Trump canceled are now so empty.
	Like, they are chronic masturbators, right?
	And that's basically that's what Twitter is.
	Twitter is just an anger masturbation engine.
	Now, that's actually a really interesting insight, because that's what I use it for.
	I uh basically cyber bully all the political leaders in Alberta.
	So, you know, maybe I should stop doing that.
	Not really accomplishing much, am I?
	Make sure you wipe it off the drapes and park down the block.
	Giggity giggity.
	Firehap says, as much as I'm loath to say this, I can respect Anita Sarkeesian in that she made herself a target.
	Oh, she had hustle.
	Anita Sarkeesian is not stupid.
	I mean, oh my god.
	I should probably do a piece addressing the Sarkeesian effect at some point In a way that Jordan Owen doesn't have a good excuse to send more lawyers after me.
	There's lots of ways I could address that.
	should address that.
	I didn't address it well at the time.
	Like I said, when Thunderfoot turned on me, then Sargon of Akkad went along with Thunderfoot because he was cool at the time.
	Just really getting attacked on all sides and I kind of retreated.
	I didn't say anything.
	I should have stood up for myself.
	And it's coming back around to the time, but I think I should probably address all of that.
	And now one of the ironies of where we are right now.
	On the one hand, I was discredited for being a member of the alt-right, for being a white supremist.
	Whereas today, the leftoids are getting so incredibly radical.
	And I know that none of you folks ever bought that crap.
	But the leftoids have gone so over the top with their constant attacks on white people that trying to say, well, I'm not a white supremist.
	Well, yeah, but I'm a proud white.
	Like, well, it's a curse being two years in the future.
	It's not bragging.
	I'm just saying, like, I'm two years ahead of the curve.
	You're better off being with the curve.
	You fit in a lot better if you're with the curve.
	And so, no, like, I'm, yeah, I'm pro-white.
	I am white.
	Of course, I'd be pro-white.
	How psychotic would you have to be to be white and anti-white?
	But I've also never been a fan of the neo-Nazis.
	Never been a fan of those guys.
	So, yeah, it might be time to do something about that and state that.
	Anyway, that's the thing with it.
	Sarkeesian was not a soft target.
	oh god damn it like it's still that movie could have been something Maybe not great.
	I mean, I did have connections.
	Well, I've told you my connections with Hollywood.
	Maybe we couldn't have got it on Netflix.
	But we could have done something with that movie rather than have the whole thing just blow up into this embarrassing embarrassment like it did.
	I will tell you folks, one of the skills I am really trying to learn is don't give loyalty to people that don't deserve it.
	You know, like, yeah, be gentle as a dove, but be cunning as a serpent as well.
	And I'm way too soft.
	I'm way too soft.
	I care about my friends.
	I want to bring everybody with me to the promised land, and most of them don't deserve it.
	learn to cut your losses.
	The current crop of woke scolds are just cowards hiding behind avatars.
	Oh, they really, again, they're masturbators.
	They're anonymous accounts on Pornhub leaving comments on videos, terrified of approaching real people.
	I mean, like, you know, the radical right would say that, you know, homosexuality is a terrible sin.
	Homosexuality would be a step up for these people.
	Because at least they approached somebody.
	What they're doing right now is lower than homosexuality.
	Okay?
	It's lower than hiring a prostitute.
	Hiring a prostitute would be a step up for these creatures.
	They're too cowardly to do that.
	Doctore, I teach.
	Refer to the early apostles of the church.
	The teachers.
	Yes, Doctore, I teach.
	Churches used to be the only places that granted the title doctor.
	Thank you, Amadi.
	Oh, AstraZeneca.
	AZ is AstraZeneca.
	So their comment was, is AZ seeding variants through their vaccine?
	I don't think so.
	What I think is happening is that these mRNA jabs are causing major health problems, and the health problems are being associated with detection of DNA from the virus because they just got injected with an mRNA jab.
	And they're calling it a variant.
	I don't actually.
	I don't buy that there are any variants.
	I mean, on the one hand, yeah, obviously there are.
	It's a coronavirus.
	It does nothing but mutate.
	That's why we've never been able to make a vaccine protect against the flu.
	Because coronaviruses mutate faster than anything else.
	And by current evidence, this was a coronavirus developed in a lab with funding from Dr. Fauci, which has been weaponized.
	In fact, guys, we're quite lucky that this COVID turned out to be so minor.
	Because it was engineered to be a very ugly, deadly virus.
	And it's been a joke.
	It's been, it's not much worse than the regular flu.
	And like, like, ultimately, it really is no.
	Like, it's, it's worse for older people, but older people are just sitting around slowly dying anyway.
	Like, not to be brutal about it, but you're not too productive during your final six months of life.
	And a virus that shaved off the last six months of life would actually create a net positive for society.
	Not advocating for it.
	I'm just, you know, I'm just, that's a fact.
	If people died faster, that would be better.
	And that seems to be all that the Corona Chan does.
	Is that when you're already at death's door, it just pushes you through a little bit faster.
	Doesn't really affect younger people or healthy people or people in good shape.
	Really only seems to knock over the people that are on death's door.
	And we're really lucky because it was engineered to be a super virus.
	And it's coronavirus.
	It mutates extremely rapidly.
	So, yeah, there's tons and tons and tons.
	There's not a Delta variant in a beta.
	There's a billion variants.
	It's a coronavirus.
	Good luck.
	Go watch cells at work, okay?
	Like that.
	I swear to God, if people would just watch cells at work, they'd be better educated about what's going on than if they read the mainstream media.
	But no, these variants, my suspicion is that these variants are actually purely effects from the mRNA injection.
	They are not new viruses.
	It's that the injection itself is killing people.
	But I mean, like a whole bunch of whatever.
	Like the guys, the virus isn't going to kill you.
	Nobody in my audience is old enough to die from coronavirus.
	Do not get the vaccine.
	hope I don't get banned for saying that.
	What if you're an insane person with a real job?
	There are no insane people with real jobs.
	Insane people insufferable.
	And both Firehaps and Bill West doing some ice creams.
	Guys, thank you very much.
	I try and produce good content.
	It means a lot.
	It actually, it really does.
	Like, on the one hand, I feel like, oh man.
	Again, this stream was sponsored by Mr. C who tossed me 25 bucks on Patreon just today.
	I was thinking about doing a stream anyway, but when I saw that, I'm like, yeah, I'm doing a stream.
	I'm doing a stream.
	Try and keep you guys entertained.
	You know, I feel like a lot of obligation.
	Like, you guys are good enough to subscribe to me, good enough to sit here, leave me great comments.
	And on top of that, you toss me shekels every once in a while.
	That's very, very kind of you.
	So thank you very much.
	And to all my backers on Patreon.
	Y'all have been very good to me.
	There's about 101 million viruses in the world.
	For God's sake what really blows my mind is that people don't even like this is grade 8 biochem Like I'm not even good at biochem.
	All right, like I prefer physics.
	I prefer mathematics.
	Cleaner.
	What is this biochem?
	Grade 8.
	After the past year you think that everybody had an education on biochem Okay, so My mummy.
	I love my mummy.
	She's fantastic.
	She is terrible at physics.
	She does not get physics at all.
	And so, like, sometimes she just says the most ridiculous things about car engines or lasers.
	Okay, I'll give you an example.
	And again, my mother's a saint.
	She is, I love my mom so much, but I thought sound waves were just really low-frequency light.
	Love you, mom.
	Love you so much.
	That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
	But it's like a who even cares, right?
	It's so she doesn't understand physics.
	That's not a damnable offense by any stretch of the imagination.
	But after the past year, and again, like I'm not big on biochem.
	But after the past year, you think you'd at least understand the basics of the way viruses transmit through a population, of what herd immunity actually refers to.
	Even flatten the curve.
	You'd think you would understand what flatten the curve means.
	And yet we got all these clowns posting opinions on this stuff that don't understand the very basics of any of this.
	It is pretty damn infuriating, ain't it?
	I'm gonna leave you guys with an upbeat thought, though, that a lot of people are coming around.
	In fact, you know what?
	me now I'm gonna leave you on a different thought I need to find it.
	I post it on my Twitter.
	People are always coming around.
	The big question is: can we come around faster than they can mislead us?
	good what i tweet too much but there's a lot of people breaking ranks with the left and the right right now I mean, that whole red team, blue team, it's primarily there to distract you, to keep you running around in circles.
	Ah, here we go.
	Here we go.
	I found it.
	I'm going to top off this ice before reading it to you.
	Whiskey ball is frozen.
	Mostly.
	Close enough.
	No, wait.
	Giant circle of water inside of it.
	Ah, well, we will cope.
	The heck did I do with my vape?
	Please leave a comment if you know where I put my vape.
	So this is something I spotted on the 4chans there.
	And what I find really interesting is that this is a left-wing meme.
	Like the guy that put this together, I wish I could get in contact with him, have a chat.
	Oh, that's where I put it.
	Yes, I might be a lunatic.
	Now, this meme, I posted it to my Twitter.
	These are the things they stopped talking about in 2012.
	And we've got the Google Citations measure for all of these.
	OWS, Occupy Wall Street, cratered in 2012.
	Bankers stopped being mentioned in 2012.
	Bailouts stopped being mentioned in 2012.
	These are the things they started talking about in 2012.
	And, you know, go look it up on my Twitter.
	These are very, very sharp curves.
	Number one: news articles mentioning whiteness.
	News articles mentioning systemic racism.
	That was completely flat until 2012.
	Intersectionality.
	Racism.
	Racism was like medium high and then went foom in 2012.
	White supremacy and discrimination.
	They replaced class war with race war.
	Race war does not threaten their profits.
	And then it's wages and salaries as a percentage of GDP.
	Can you see that downward line?
	So although we've been talking about the woke left in this live stream, we're not talking about the left.
	We're not talking about people that support gay rights or, you know, like Mexican restaurants the way I do.
	We're talking about the useful idiots.
	To go back to the Lovejoys.
	The Lovejoys blindly supported the war on terror.
	They blindly supported the Patriot Act.
	And hell, I was a Republican back then.
	Well, you know, as a Canadian.
	I was a right-winger, conservative, free-market, libertarian-ish guy.
	And I had major, major problems with George Bush.
	Hell, I even tweeted recently that somebody said that I, like, Barack Obama is the worst president ever.
	I'm like, I don't like Barack Obama, but Bush was a lot worse than Barack Obama.
	In fact, Barack Obama, to his credit, defunded Fauci, defunded the gain of function research.
	See, I think Barack Obama was supposed to be their Manchurian candidate, and then he started doing their own thing.
	They didn't like Barack Obama.
	Not as badly as they hated Trump, but they did not like Barack Obama.
	I'm not a huge fan of his, but he is a hell of a lot better than Bush.
	Yeah, the Lovejoy supported Bush.
	The Lovejoy supported the War on Terror and the Patriot Act, which just eviscerated human rights.
	And after the end of Occupy Wall Street, by the way, I used to be friends with one of the founders of Occupy Wall Street.
	again yeah i lean conservative i'm more what would they call it back then I forgot.
	I'm more MAGA than I am Occupy Wall Street.
	But Occupy Wall Street, they are not my enemies.
	Those are my friends.
	They're my weirdo friends.
	They're even weirder than I am.
	But those are my homies.
	And the whole current push for a war on whiteness, for Black Lives Matter, for a fight between left and right, black and white.
	Even go back.
	Even go back to when the whole George Floyd thing first blew up.
	One of my favorite memes was the Black Panther and the Gadsden Snake.
	Don't tread on us.
	That was freaking beautiful.
	Anytime we start to get the advantage, anytime we start when the left and the right are both pointing at the same people, they flip the script.
	They change the language.
	And so right after Occupy Wall Street, it became about white supremacy.
	Which is a code word for tyrannical father.
	And guess what?
	Everybody had a tyrannical father.
	Everybody had an oppressive mother.
	Expect the next one.
	Expect the next flipping of the script to be about the tyrannical mother.
	The next flipping of the script could be, could be, I'm not promising this.
	The next flipping of the script could be a return to religion.
	A return to tradition.
	Don't buy it.
	Pay attention to the real fight going on and who's your actual enemies.
	The blind followers?
	Yeah, those people are your enemies.
	But the person that's different from you is not necessarily your enemy.
	need to show major discernment.
	That ain't easy.
	Billy West just tossed a diamond.
	Thank you so much, my friend.
	Occupy Wall Street got hijacked by the progressive stack.
	It absolutely did.
	Shit, that's one of the things I covered in the Sarkeesian effect.
	Or immersion subversion.
	That was my version of it.
	God damn it, man.
	That movie could have been something.
	Really could have been something.
	Really could have been a bridge between the left and the right.
	Instead of the farce it got turned into.
	But yeah, the Tea Party, Amadi says correctly, I was about to say, the Tea Party got hijacked by the GOP.
	Yeah.
	the tea party got turned into astroturf.
	I really hate to sound so middle-of-the-road, man.
	But you can't trust outfits, can you?
	You can't trust stated beliefs.
	And actually, you know what?
	There's a long, I got a long history of literature backing me up on this.
	If you go back to the Song of Roland, the first paladin in the Song of Roland, one of the major characters is a Moor, is a Muslim, but he's an honorable warrior.
	And so though he and Roland are at odds at first, because the Song of Roland is about Charlemagne and his paladins about like 800, 850 AD, kicking the Moors out of Spain.
	Retaking the continent for Christendom.
	And yet, in this Christian epic, one of the characters is an honorable Muslim.
	So going back to 80, well, when was it written?
	Probably like 1100?
	Going back to 1100, recognizing the honor of your enemies has been a long, long tradition.
	We don't need the self-righteous zealots.
	We need honorable people in our side.
	It reminds me of an SML sketch made by Tom Hanks was on black Where Tom Hanks was on Black Jeopardy as MAGA.
	I don't know that one.
	I'm not a big fan of Tom Hanks.
	His character was able to answer the questions correctly because there isn't a huge difference between poor black and poor white.
	Beautiful.
	Okay, so bang fucking on.
	You know, the big worry, man, it is so much easier.
	shit the video that got me condemned the video that thunderfoot completely quoted out of context was a video where i was talking about how you should stay the hell away from the white nationalists How they're a load of crap.
	And I mean, I guess being proud to be white is more popular these days, but I still stand by that.
	They're nasty people.
	They are vicious human beings.
	And you should not associate with them any of these identity politics groups See, Peterson is completely correct about this.
	Okay?
	Like, I know that a lot of people on the right get bent out of shape because, oh, the other racial groups are organizing.
	Why shouldn't we?
	Because you don't want to be the lowest common denominator.
	The problem with Black Lives Matter is not that black people shouldn't feel pride and self-respect.
	The problem with Black Lives Matter is that it equates being black to being the lowest of the blacks.
	I'm a proud Italian.
	I'm not about to stand up for the mafia.
	They're a bunch of scumbags.
	Who was it?
	was it the Orson Welles described the Mafia as the sort of guys that should be driving a beer truck for a living.
	The Mafia were not cool guys from Hollywood movies in pinstripe suits They were beer truck drivers.
	They're a bunch of low IQ, low moral scumbags.
	And that is not what Italian means.
	And being black does not mean that you are George Floyd.
	That guy's an asshole.
	So yeah, Peterson is right.
	Group identity, at least in the modern, postmodern context, group identity is lowest common denominator.
	You degrade yourself by being a white nationalist or a black nationalist or whatever.
	You can be proud of your race.
	You can be proud of your heritage.
	You can be proud of your ancestry.
	You can celebrate all of that without doing group identity.
	And the whole situation is tetchy, because these postmodernists have colonized the language.
	It's very hard to figure out who's a liberal and who's a leftist.
	Who has black pride and who's a black nationalist?
	or white pride and white nationalism.
	You've got to be wise as a serpent to discern between the two.
	It's not easy.
	And so many people.
	Oh goodness, what is the Greek?
	What is the Greek?
	For know thyself?
	I'm better with Latin.
	I've done streams about this.
	know thyself.
	I think the difference, the difference between pride and hatred is knowing yourself.
	And the people I've run into Who do the white nationalism, black nationalism, etc.
	They didn't know themselves or Or they did, and they were ashamed of themselves.
	So they hid behind the racial ideology.
	Same thing goes for LGBT.
	Same thing goes for any of these identity groups.
	These are people that are fundamentally ashamed.
	Fundamentally self-hating.
	Not self-actualized, not strong, not proud, not healthy.
	They know that fundamentally they're inadequate, and rather than stand naked before God, they would rather be armored in their pretenses.
	Yeah, find the people that aren't afraid to be naked before God.
	Find the people that aren't...
	Shit.
	You can call me a lot of things for being Italian, right?
	And if you do that, maybe I won't be friends with you.
	I mean, there's a big joke.
	Are Italians white?
	That's a big joke.
	And now, if you're serious about that, if you seriously hate Italians and you think I'm not white, well, I'm not going to be your friend.
	You seriously hate Catholics, I'm not going to be your friend.
	But it doesn't hurt my feelings.
	I know what I am.
	And hell, a good Muslim.
	Good Muslim.
	I'm going to be upfront about what I think.
	But if he's a good Muslim, if he's good and honorable, I'll be his friend.
	I'll be a loyal friend to him.
	because you can't insult a man who knows himself and is honest about himself.
	Those are the people we want on our team, on weirdo team, on whatever we're doing.
	want the good people and you know I want to touch what you said Bill West Don't judge.
	Man, I got no idea how anybody stands for the Lord.
	We judge, will you be the sort of person I want to hang out with?
	Will you be a good lover?
	Do you share the same music in me?
	We judge in those manners.
	But if somebody's genuinely pursuing the good, I can't judge that, man.
	I know how far short I fall.
	I can't judge anybody else.
	I mean, if they're making the wrong choice, then I can see the wrong choice.
	If they are vicious and hateful, we can all see that.
	But if somebody is falling forward into grace, best of luck.
	I'll pray for you.
	You pray for me.
	How's that sound?
	Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party are being screwed over by the same people.
	They almost figured it out.
	And that is what we are figuring out, my friends.
	That Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party are the same people.
	We are the same people.
	just different.
	Bill West says, people care less about group identity than freedom.
	As a matter of fact.
	I mean, that's a good thing.
	There's, um, oh, what's his name?
	Who's that comedian from Britain that went to jail for the Hitler dog?
	Can't remember his name right now.
	Anyway, he just poses like if everybody should support freedom of speech.
	Doesn't matter who you are you should support it and I mean like we could nitpick that but yeah, I agree I agree.
	freedom of speech damn it turner and who just posted the greek but i can't pronounce greek I do not know the Cyrillic alphabet.
	Firehap says, Bill West, I disagree.
	Whether it's feminists, white nationalists, incels, or Black Lives Matter, they all want the status quo.
	allows them to continue to engage in these blood feuds there was a mini series about the hatfields mccoys which all right fun background story The first time I heard about the Hatfields McCoy's were a Scooby-Doo special, which was set in the South and had the Hatfields and McCoy's, or stand-ins for them, blindly hunting one another,
	and they thought that Shaggy was a member of the other family.
	The Hatfields and McCoys, if you don't know, it's these two families in the South that got into a blood feud with one another.
	And that this is why you have the King's Peace.
	This is why you need a justice system to prevent a blood feud.
	Because it just got bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger.
	I watched this mini-series on it.
	I have no idea if the miniseries was accurate or not.
	But what really stood out to me is near the end of the series where one of the protagonists jumped on his horse and moved to California.
	Like, you know, this feud, it's going to go on forever.
	And I don't even care anymore.
	I just want to live my life.
	I just want to have a home and have a wife and have kids.
	And I'm done with all of this.
	I'm leaving.
	I quit.
	Men go in their own way, which also speaks to what Christ said about be the salt of the earth.
	be the preservative that holds on to what is good i mean we should certainly stand up for people that are being cancelled Because that's just vicious and nasty.
	But don't be a belligerent.
	Be a hospice.
	Be a hospital.
	Be one of the people that holds on to what is good in life and maintains that.
	Because you're right.
	These people just want blood feuds.
	They want that nasty self-righteousness that comes with destroying an enemy.
	Most people laugh at attempts to put them on a pie chart of diversity.
	Skio te ipsum.
	Know thyself.
	Skio from the skiere, root word for science.
	Knowledge and wisdom.
	Skio te ipsum.
	Ipsum ip.
	Oh, good.
	I remember that chapter from Wheelock's Latin.
	There's that beautiful, it's like a two-word Greek phrase, know thyself.
	There's like two Greek phrases I know.
	Molon LeBay, because I dated this fantastic girl, absolutely fantastic girl in New Hampshire.
	And I lived with her for a while, and she lived with her parents.
	It was like an extended family in the house, and they so welcomed me.
	That was the best Christmas I ever had.
	They were so nice.
	They all had very nice guitars, but they brought over homemade guitars with tin cans as the resonator.
	And they were playing Christmas music on these tin can hick guitars because that's the culture in New Hampshire.
	And the lampshade, the lamp, right by the couch by the television, had Molan LeBay written on it.
	God, I love New Hampshire.
	I love the people of New Hampshire.
	They're a weird mix of very intellectual, very modern, and absolute hick at the same time.
	They would have liked my family.
	Now what movie did I show them?
	I showed them a movie with the two Coreys in it.
	National Lampoon's Last Resort.
	National Lampoon's Last Resort is such a weird movie.
	It was actually only filmed to be a tax write-off.
	It was never intended to be profitable.
	The movie is awful.
	It is awful and terrible, and it's one of the best movies I've ever seen.
	The one Cory, he is so drunk half the time that he's stumbling into the sets.
	and they just went with it.
	And the movie, it was set in a tropical paradise, ergo last resort.
	It's like on a resort vacation getaway.
	But they initially did not have the budget to go to Hawaii.
	So they had these cardboard cutouts of palm trees.
	But then they got the budget to film in Hawaii.
	And they kept the cardboard cutouts.
	So half the time the actors, it's like there's real palm trees in the distance and here's a fake palm tree and they're walking around in front of the fake shitty looking palm tree as if it's a real palm tree.
	It is.
	And everybody's having a blast.
	It's a crappy comedy movie that isn't actually that funny.
	And the plot is stupid.
	But it's so much fun.
	You can just tell, like, everybody on the set is having fun.
	This is the most low-stress movie.
	Like, movies are such high stress.
	They are so stressful to make.
	And everybody on Last Resort is having a blast.
	The crew is having a blast.
	The actors are having a blast.
	Everybody is just having an absolute blast.
	They got Elvis impersonator who wrote a song for the movie, which is like, it is...
	I'm living on the last.
	A last resort vacation.
	I'm living on the last.
	Ever since I found a new place to dwell.
	I'm living on the last.
	Last resort vacation.
	I'm living on the last.
	Ever since I met you, babe.
	Something like that.
	they did an elvis song for the damn movie they have these really crappy underwater scenes that are clearly not underwater but they have snorkels on and they're pretending to swim through it is so It's so not funny that it becomes funny all over again.
	and uh yeah i watched that movie with her family that is on the list of my favorite movies that terrible unfunny ridiculous rude movie it's probably one of my favorite movies Because the.
	because goddammit they had fun making it, and that energy bleeds through.
	Engage people with humor.
	It works best.
	I do my best, but I'm not that funny.
	Point out the ridiculousness of educated people.
	Oh my god, it's yeah.
	Count Dankula, yes, Count Dankula.
	Yeah, he's an alright.
	He's a good guy, man.
	He's a good frickin' guy.
	Companies pay big money to these diversity pushers to keep the lawyers away and to get invited to networking cocktail parties.
	In reality, they can't stand one another.
	Sort of a blackmail play with advancement opportunities.
	Yeah, that's the other thing.
	Okay, we're gonna finish up.
	No more comments.
	Thank you for the comments.
	We're gonna close things off shortly.
	To riff off of The Last Resort, National Lampoon's Last Resort.
	Go watch it.
	What a great movie.
	Go watch that movie with some people you care about.
	Right?
	Like a lover, some family, and like and tell them, like, hey, I heard this is a really bad movie.
	That's a lot of fun to watch.
	So it's, like, don't expect to be blown away, but we're gonna have some fun watching this movie.
	And go watch that movie with them.
	Isn't it so much better to be part of a really bad movie that's a lot of fun to make as opposed to a great movie where everybody's miserable?
	I guess that's us.
	That is us, my friends.
	Better to be part of the weird hate speech community where you get treated decently for being a human being Than whatever stupid games that these idiots are playing while they try and rule the world for crying out loud.
	I mean, if they were doing a good job, if they were just doing a good job, like, we wouldn't care.
	We just, you know, we want to drive our cars and drink our the hell is this anyway?
	Whatever we're drinking, we just want to be left alone.
	We just want to have fun.
	Play our garbage can guitars at Christmas.
	But they won't leave us alone, so every so often, any man of good conscience needs to hoist the black flag and start slitting throats.
	Carpe futurum tene traditum.
	Love you guys.
	You're a fantastic audience.
	Thank you for all the support.
	I will be back on Friday, if not sooner.
	And for all of y'all, keep your powder dry.
