BRACE YOURSELF: Major YouTube Crackdown Incoming | Guest: Phil Labonte | Ep 192
Does free speech even exist any more? YouTube has come out with new guidelines cracking down even harder on what the government is allowing us to speak about. They’ve taken control of our tongues, and now the content we create is going to be forced behind the BlazeTV paywall. Phil Labonte, vocalist for All That Remains, joins us to discuss.
Some of the language in these videos is not censored and may be considered slightly offensive to some viewers.
Homosexual, not in the good kind of gay way, but just the kind of cringy West Hollywood homosexual vibes.
Unfunny, not really original, and also sort of pathetic.
When I watch videos like that, I don't really know how to respond.
It's a combination of just total cringe fest and also feeling bad that people not only wasted their time designing the costumes, writing that music, but that Stephen Colbert actually probably still thinks he's a comedian.
It's really sad.
Phil Lebanti, the vocalist for all that remains, joins me slightly offensive for the first time.
And also, I think this, with the propaganda that they use to push the vaccine on the vaccine, they use the word hesitant, which hesitant is already a cope because they're actually vaccine resistant.
Like they use the word hesitant to let to make them feel like all we need to do is just use a little more Stephen Colbert dancing with transgender vaccine characters.
And boom, you know, that black guy who doesn't trust his doctor is going to get the vaccine.
At least the narrative about the efficacy of the vaccine has been in flux for the better part of the past nine months or so, eight months or so.
So it's completely reasonable for someone to say, you know what, I don't know that the vaccine is right for me.
And this push by the establishment to demonize people that would make a different decision about their health care and their life is, again, the word that just keeps coming to my mind is reprehensible.
But I just want to know, YouTube, yeah, came out dick swinging and they said now they are redefining their medical misinformation policy.
They are going to ban prominent anti-vaccine activists and block all anti-vaccine content.
We're not talking about just the COVID vaccine.
We're talking about all vaccines, period.
And we're going to get into this and a lot more coming up on this episode of slightly offensive, the best worst show on Blaze TV where we always have confetti of color.
It's pronounced COC.
Give a little COC to the face a fill there.
I don't know if you've had that near your face for a while now.
I don't think.
There you go.
A little bit of Sav.
A huge shout out and a thank you to one of you guys that we want to say for sending us custom burned artwork.
Sav, can you show it?
You guys took one of Sav's pictures where she got maced in the face and had white stuff coming down her face and you made that into a permanent piece of art.
Nothing says family-friendly show, like a permanent woodburn piece of a young woman with white cream on her face.
Interesting.
Well, I got to say this.
My name is Elijah Schaefer.
I'm your top 18 host.
And we are obviously in a very, very dark time.
And like I said, this is Phil Labonte.
And he is joining us.
He's an amazing musical artist.
And, you know, in all of this that's going on, I mean, where the hell are we that we've come down to some weird kid who went to school in science and some guy?
I mean, what would you call yourself a heavy metal band?
The idea that the people in the music industry and in the entertainment industry are carrying water for the establishment just as a concept.
It doesn't matter whether it's a right-leaning or a left-leaning establishment.
Just the fact that there are people in the arts and people that are always or that have historically been thought of as independent thinkers and stuff that are just out there carrying water for the corporate government establishment is mind-blowing to me.
It was honestly when Rage Against the Machine said that they were going to play at venues that were for vaccinated people only that I realized there was an intense problem in our society.
The coffee machine, maybe, or something like that.
No, I know, and we're going to talk about that, but I got to let you guys know.
You know, obviously things are unpredictable.
And we're talking a lot about the madness and the insanity that's going on.
And a lot of you guys are just starting out in life.
You're buying a home.
You're starting a family.
And unfortunately, you really don't know what's going to happen in the future.
You don't know whether they're going to get a car accident.
I mean, we should probably ban cars because over a million people, you know, often die every year from car accidents.
Apparently, we're so afraid of death that we forgot to actually prepare for it in a real way rather than just running around freaked out, which is why I got to talk to you about Trust and Will.
Now, at trustandwill.com, setting up an estate plan is simple and convenient.
And if you think you don't need something like that, you're going, what's the point of that?
I don't need that.
Well, think about this.
For as little as $39, you can nominate things like guardians for your children.
And yes, your dog and your pets too, some of you guys.
By the way, Gus did die our hamster that I gave to Sav.
And so, you know, who knows?
If Gus didn't die before me and I wanted to figure out where to put Gus, you got to make sure you have a plan in place for that as well.
And you can determine who gets your stuff.
You don't know who's going to get your MyPillow.
Those things are hot commodities.
You can't buy them in stores anymore.
And on a more important sale, on a more important thing as well, it's also about who plans your future medical care.
This is a big thing.
So when you think about an estate plan, this is not just finding out like, oh, well, I'm young and whatever.
I'll just do whatever I want with my stuff and I'll just give away my, you know, Mazda Miata from 1999 when I die.
No.
Imagine you're like on your deathbed and nobody, there's no plan put aside for when to pull the plug, how to treat your health if you can't breathe or if you're you know put into a coma or something like that.
I mean, you really have to have this set up and willing to take care of you.
And I know that they have live customer service seven days a week, and they're also available to answer any questions.
So, for about $39, if you want to find the best way to set up and take care of your life and to prepare for the future, trust me, don't wait.
It's not even a big amount of money there, and it never hurts to be prepared.
Go to trustandwill.com slash SO, that's trustandwill.com/slash SO, and get 10% off plus free shipping of your customized legal documents they will send to you.
Again, that's T-R-U-S-T-A-N-D-W-I-L-L dot com slash SO, and get 10% off plus free shipping of your customized documents that they will send to you with the most trusted name online of estate planning.
Yeah, we're always selling guns, ways to conceal your identity online, body armor, food prep, and like things for if you die or if you like lose limbs.
So, obviously, we were just talking before we got on here.
We started a new show.
You're coming on the show tonight.
I think you're going to be on tomorrow night as well.
So, you're with us for a couple days.
And last night, we are back on air.
We're back on YouTube, but we were gone for a little while because YouTube said that we violated their medical misinformation policy.
This is already a weird era of life where we're in a place where we use phrases like medical misinformation based off of my crime was questioning the efficacy of masks and how effective they are against preventing the spread of COVID-19.
And apparently, they said you're not allowed to do that, and that is against their rules, that it's against their laws, and it was enough for them to cut off revenue for multiple days and try to actually delete our channel.
And it's so weird, like you said, in the day and age where the biggest purveyors and the people carrying the gauntlet for these censors and these tyrants has become the platforms and the creators of the arts and media.
And I'm like, where the hell did we get to that these people became against freedom, against liberty, when just like 10 years ago, they were all about free the nipple and let me say the F word on TV, and now they're about how much you can, you know, submit and subject me to ruling from the government.
Like I said earlier, I have it, it is something that is so foreign to me.
I've been the kind of dude that's like, I've always been kind of a go-your-own-way kind of guy.
Like, as soon as I was starting to fit in somewhere, I was kind of like, maybe I'm not in the right spot or whatever.
And I think that that's something that has historically been, you know, been the area of artists and creative people trying to push the boundaries.
And I don't know how to kind of digest that it's no longer where the artists are and the creative people.
And if they are, if it is still the domain of creative people, they have been so cowed by the powers that be that Nikki Minaj saying, you know, hey, you should talk to a doctor and know about yourself before you get the vaccination gets the president or the White House involved.
I mean, the White House literally, you know, made a comment saying, hey, we'll put someone in touch with Nikki Minaj because she's out here throwing a wrench in our narrative and our propaganda or whatever you want to call it.
Yeah, and you know, this is what's so strange is if we go to this article, like we're talking about with the way celebrities in Hollywood are carrying this.
I always think it's weird too.
They call it TV programming.
I know because they're technically, it's like it's programming electronically.
But if you think about it, you start to see through the cracks today how much these people have been sold out or have become dead to reality because of the lifestyle.
They're out of touch with America.
They're not people representing what we want or what we need.
They're just looking out for their own corporate interests.
And if you look at this from MSN.com, this is a really interesting point.
I mean, it says that YouTube is taking down several video channels associated with high-profile anti-vaccine activists.
I love how they call them anti-vaccine activists, including Joseph Mercola and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who experts say are partially responsible for helping seed the skepticism that's contributed to slowing vaccination rates across the country.
So obviously they have no way to measure that.
They have no way to prove that.
They're just saying, look, here's a couple people that we don't like, and we're blaming them for slowing down the vaccination rates.
If you can put up Colbert's video with no sound, Savannah, to me, that slows down the vaccination rates.
When you do stuff like this, you're telling people who aren't vaccinated that they're retarded.
I think that what you're saying speaks to a lot of things that you see in the culture war and you see on the internet or on Twitter or people that are extremely online or whatever.
There is a my team, your team idea out there.
And if you are against Donald Trump and things that they associate with Trumpism, then you have to be pro-Joe Biden.
And I see it all the time.
I see it all the time when you criticize someone on one team.
People will just jump in and say, well, what about the other team?
And it's not conducive to actual dialogue or understanding or anything.
It's all just team sports dunking on each other.
And I think you're right that the stuff like Colbert looking like a fool alienates people that are already hesitant and don't want to just fall in line.
Those people aren't as aggressive about their opinion either.
The people that are really aggressive trying to coerce you are the people that think that you should take it.
The people that are like, nah, I just don't want to.
They're just like, hey, leave me out.
I don't want to.
They're not trying to influence people to not take it.
They're not out there trying to pass laws saying, oh, you can't have the vaccination.
It's about the people that want to force you to and the people that just want to decline.
And that, in my opinion, that inherently means that there is a good side and a bad side.
The side that wants to force you to take something that you don't want to, they can never be the good guys.
They can never be in the right if they're trying to force people to do things.
If you have to use the power of the state, you can never, historically, you can look back and it's almost never the people that are trying to force you that are quote unquote the good guys.
It's like with Trump when he got banned off of Twitter.
And one of the most famous quotes that I read was, it was never the good guys that were censoring and banning people from public speech.
Absolutely.
Just so you know, you call them dictator and dictator and dictator.
Dictators don't get censored.
They censor.
And so it's an interesting problem that we have right now where that's my take too.
I walk around and I tell people the only people that I say are dumb when they get the vaccine is people who get it when they think it's bad for them and they feel coerced and pressured because I go, that's a bad reason to do anything is because you're coerced and pressured.
If you think it's good for you and you want to get it, I'll be damned.
You can't see my, you know, my kid, or you can't see your nephews, or yeah, that's where we're at.
You hear that kind of stuff all the time, and it is a terrible development.
And it's, I personally lay all the blame on the media and the federal government, the government trying to coerce people into doing things that they don't want to do.
Yeah, and you know, okay, this is this tying this back to what you were saying, and we were talking about with Hollywood carrying the gauntlet.
This is so crazy.
So I posted about this with YouTube online.
I posted this on Twitter.
And of course, I have my own slant to things.
I write things in a certain way.
That's true.
It's unabashed.
But I just said, you know, YouTube is imposing harsher restrictions on vaccine information.
And the reason why I didn't call it misinformation is because that's a very subjective word, right?
A lot of these people have studies and evidence of why they're saying what they're saying.
And to categorize everything that disagrees with big pharmaceuticals' stance on things as misinformation is already a tricky word.
There's either truth or lies.
There's fact or fiction.
Misinformation, missing context, all these weird things that they've added put us in this loophole of like misinformation can also mean the wrong information.
And that's what I already think is weird: the policy starts out by saying, kind of like, it doesn't mean you're wrong or you don't have a study to back it up, but it's what goes against the medical consensus, our medical consensus, the doctors that we've pre-approved.
It's just who, it's just who is in control of the narrative.
There's a push to control what is and is not acceptable discourse.
And the big tech companies have jumped both feet into that.
You know, I suppose, as much as Twitter catches a lot of flack, I suppose Twitter is probably better than Facebook and Instagram, but probably not much better.
And there is definitely an effort to control the narrative, control what people, what information people share.
If there's anything that looks authoritative, but that doesn't line up with the approved agenda or approved narrative, that's suppressed.
That gets a missing context tag, like you said, or it gets a link attached to it on Instagram saying, here's the official narrative about COVID and about vaccinations, et cetera, and stuff.
I mean, just the way that they treat, you can see just the way that they treat ivermectin.
Like, I don't know anything about the dumb drug, right?
I don't have, I've done no studying on it.
But if you talk about it, someone is going to take your face and put a horse on it.
That's just the, that's just the narrative that goes along.
No, it's horse medicine.
It's not that it's not about ivermectin.
It's not about whether or not it works for humans.
Never mind the Nobel Prize that it won in 2015.
Never mind the fact that it's used currently when people come to the country.
It's a way, it's as if they intend to discredit anyone that has the audacity to say something that is outside, out of step with the official narrative.
Yeah, for our blind viewers, by the way, which are people that listen on podcasts, remember, we're really growing the online podcasting.
Just don't forget to download this audio only.
We were talking about this earlier.
You can get the podcast.
It's free to download, and it really helps us out, especially when we're banned on YouTube and stuff.
Not only are we on Blaze TV, but if you don't have a Blaze TV subscription, you always can get the audio of the show so you won't ever miss it whenever we get randomly suspended.
That's true.
And we also read the reviews at the end, which is kind of cool.
Leave a good review.
Let us know what you thought about Phil, by the way.
His whole life's dependent upon his performance here today.
So he really told me that earlier.
He goes, I'm going to cry if people don't leave me good reviews.
I didn't watch it yet, but I'm really excited for tonight.
And I want to continue on with this too.
As we go with this, I wrote something, and this is interesting.
I go, with complaints of harsh overreach and blatant censorship, which I think has been the normal complaint from people against tech companies.
Like, I didn't say just censorship.
I made the distinction between harsh overreach, meaning people feel like these companies are taking on more to control speech and society.
That may not be considered censorship, maybe even be legal, but it's overreached in terms of what we want as a society of saying, why are you telling me one idea is like you could say for four years that there's Russia collusion and Trump is not the president.
But if you talk about and you say, you know, the big F word about the last election, and I'm not talking about fortified, you'll get banned.
So it was like, it was cool for four or five years to talk about elections being stolen.
And everyone said it was stolen by the Russians.
It was collusion with Putin.
And then now it's like, hey, now that's illegal now that our guy's in power.
You will get, you know, there will be repercussions if you hold the wrong opinion, even if it only means, you know, some blue check mark on Twitter is going to start digging into your past, looking to see if you said some naughty word or donated to the wrong candidate or something like that to try and try to, you know, start some kind of mob to go after you, which is standard procedure nowadays, which is, and that's, it's frightening and disgusting.
But, you know, there aren't very many journalists anymore.
They're activists.
And if they write a piece that goes after a private citizen who, you know, maybe has the wrong opinion or is somehow ignorant of something they decide that they should not be ignorant of.
And then you'll get multiple outlets writing pieces about this very bad person.
And it's reflective of the times, but it's really not good to see that just having either a misinformed or a poorly informed opinion means that there are going to be people that are literally going to attack you.
They're going to go after your, they're going to go and, you know, your money first for your job.
Yeah, yeah, you're, if you don't, people think we're immune to that.
This is what's interesting is that people, we've lost hundreds of thousands of dollars of sponsorships this year from people going after us.
They've taken away all monetization on this channel, on my Facebook channel.
They've they've gone after, they've gotten so many companies to abandon me.
I mean, I made one tweet about Kyle Rittenhouse and one of my big sponsors dropped me as well.
And it's just, people are such, they're so weak.
And honestly, that's why it's like it's saying they go, well, you can't get fired.
This is your job.
Yes, I can get fired.
If I lose all revenue, I don't have a job.
It's not going to get fired.
I just can't operate my business.
So that's like saying to someone who owns a company, oh, well, you can't get fired.
Yes, they can.
That's why they work around the clock because if you lose the revenue stream, then they lose their income as well.
So it works from the top to the bottom.
We all can.
And that's why I say that after they had been accused, this is so important that the tech platform doubled down on their policies and further tightened the rein.
I said the whip.
I was a little joke to the southern border.
I said, we're calling it the whip on freedom of speech.
And I even pretext this at my favorite comments to these are losers defending big tech, stifling free speech, because they are private companies.
Like they have more power than government.
So I cited WAPO, Washington Post talked about this as well.
And it's interesting because I know that people are going to say, oh, well, YouTube could do this.
Stop bitching.
Stop complaining.
It's just a private company.
But Washington Post brought this up.
Look at this.
It said, this is their quote.
But as the companies increasingly have come under fire from regulators, lawmakers, and regular users for contributing to social ills, including vaccine skepticism, YouTube is again changing policies that it has held onto for months.
Little clause that they're changing their policies because of regulators and lawmakers, because of the government.
So the government is pressuring them.
So it's just like saying, well, technically, there's no vaccine mandate.
OSHA is just a regulatory agency.
There's no laws.
It's a mandate through a regulatory agency.
It's finding loopholes to do your dirty work.
It's saying, well, the government can't just silence people who they don't like that go against their narrative on vaccines.
So where do people talk?
Well, in these tech platforms.
Where do people access information on these sites?
And people always say, well, then why do you care so much about YouTube?
The reason why we care is because we're not trying to just be in an echo chamber.
There's over a billion users on YouTube.
It's the second most accessed website in the, I think, in the world.
And it's also a search engine, not even a social media site, where people go for all types of information.
And we want people to have access to the truth.
We're not just trying to have our careers and make a little money and have 10 people in a room.
We're trying to make sure people have free access to information where they go to access it.
Isn't that the whole argument for health care and abortions and contraceptives and the whole reason why we need access, right?
You need condoms in school.
You need sex ed because the kids need access to things in order for it to work.
So if we want people to have this information, it needs to be there.
And so when you look at this, you go, damn, this administration, they've talked about this, are the ones they're admitting here are behind the pressure to do this stuff to us.
And it's also a means for businesses and corporations that want to absolve themselves of the responsibility.
They can say, well, you know, look, the government wants us to, and they may not have had a law or whatever, but it's what the government's going to end up doing.
So just go ahead and get it.
And really, I also think that there is an effort to create two kind of groups in society.
There are the people that don't want to get vaccinated, that will be essentially left behind and looked at as second-class citizens.
And it's the government using corporations to do its dirty work.
Yeah, and if I understand correctly, there's constitutional precedent about the First Amendment, the government using private means to do things like stifle the freedom of speech and whatever.
That's prohibited to the federal government by the Constitution, if I understand correctly.
I don't know the Supreme Court case, but if I understand correctly, the government using private industry to do things the government is not allowed to do is also unconstitutional.
Yeah, and It's actually kind of interesting, specifically, that the guy who says this, if you go to my screen, it's like, of course, this guy, John Fugal, saying, says a private company not letting you use their online platform because you violate their terms is not censorship.
And of course, I just said like clockwork.
I love these guys.
You can predict it.
He's like, Elijah, it's still true.
But if you go to his page, it's like comedian, actor, broadcaster.
This is my question.
I don't know this guy's politics.
I don't know if he's a leftist.
I don't know exactly where he stands.
He looks like he's a pretty free-spirited guy.
Probably 20 years ago would have been kind of a badass.
Probably cool to go drink a beer with, maybe smoke a joint or something.
I don't know.
Probably had it, probably, hopefully he's sober now, probably had a hard decade, a couple decades with alcohol.
But now he became a corporate shill and he's out there.
These guys that look cool that are like, you know, he's got his hair long.
This is against the grain.
Don't want to live the suburban lifestyle.
I've been there, done that, or are out here being like running PR campaigns for big tech companies.
Like, dude, what a loser.
Like, I'm just saying that.
Like, you're, you're, and you're also stupid because you're going, oh, well, it's a private company.
Brother, think beyond this.
Open your brain.
What happened to these people being the people telling people like me, bro, open your brain.
The fact that like a right-winger on a conservative network is being more against corporations than you are kind of throws me off politically.
Like, when did these leftists become corporate ambassadors?
As long as when the left is in control of most media production and most of the government and has such a stranglehold on culture in the U.S. and stuff, they don't have the incentive to try to be anything other than authoritarian and shove their opinions down people's throats.
So it's just a matter of they're in positions where they are in control.
And so they're going to use the force of government to implement their ideas.
So obviously, obviously, we're talking here about the people being out of touch.
This is what's happened is as they've gotten into power, the Terry McAwlev, I think that's how you pronounce it, that is here being asked specifically about school and school choice, says in this clip that he's at the point, not just with critical race theory, with people challenging the government, that he doesn't believe that parents should have a say in what schools teach their children.
I want you to play this clip, and I want to talk about the implications of this.
unidentified
Veto books, Glenn.
Not to be knowledge about it.
Also, take them off the shelves.
And I'm not going to let parents come into schools and actually take books out and make their own decisions.
You vetoed it.
So, yeah, I bet you stopped the bill that I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.
Yeah, so that's obviously Governor Terry McAuliffe.
I just have a hard time saying that, talking about with like what's going on in the schools, saying our schools are about us indoctrinating and teaching you.
And while you would think of school being a subsidiary collective of people in an area using their hard-earned money and taxes to provide an education that they want for their kids that they see to be fit, he is changing the structure, saying, Well, now that we're in power, once your kids are in here, we're in control.
And you don't have a say-so once they enter these doors, which makes the school system and all these institutions no longer about the representation of the people, but these are indoctrination factories.
Yeah, and it makes me a bit nervous because the reason why I got confused there on what it said, because it said that this was the Virginia governor, but I guess this was the previous one before Ralph Northam.
So I got confused in my notes.
I'm like, this is odd because I thought Ralph Northam was the governor.
But this shows you how far we've gone because at this point, the fact that you can say that and to the point where people are clapping and they're supporting this, people have absolutely become whipped and put into a position of where they enjoy that submission.
And I do want to talk about that a little bit, but I also got to tell you that obviously as we go forward, you may not be able to always control what your children are being taught.
And the government may want to try to forcibly support you, but there's nothing better that you can honestly support than I'm talking about to the boys here than your balls and your junk.
Because honestly, as going forward, we're going to have to reproduce.
We're going to have to remake a country.
We're going to have to also keep these things safe and protected with the right support that you need, which is why I got to talk to you about Under Attack.
Because obviously, Undertak is the exact sort of sack that you need for the sack that you trust the most.
These are not only, it's not only a company that I love that supports all of your rights, that supports what you love, unlike some of these other underwear companies that put rainbow bands.
If you have big dick energy and you need something that is tight and can actually hold your package in place, you don't want to be out there showing off to everybody and letting them know that you're packing, right?
They're already trying to make guns illegal.
Can't show them you're hiding a secret weapon, but you want to breathe.
You don't want the pilling and you want a secret little pocket, you know, just in case you need to rapid reproduce in some case with your spouse, of course, consensually.
I got to tell you, Undertak's amazing.
I actually, I only have like four pairs, which is kind of amazing.
But that's because if you buy three, you get one free with the offer code offensive.
And these are cheaper than even the competitors with higher quality, in my opinion.
They're amazing.
They're comfortable.
I have actually in all three of these colors.
I got an entire pack for myself.
But go to undertack.com right now.
That's undertak.com and use promo code offensive.
That's U-N-D-E-R-T-A-C.com, promo code offensive, and get the best support for your junk.
Again, don't go with these weird sissy brands.
Actually, protect yourself and support yourself until you find the right person who can take over the job from there.
Anyway, I like them.
I don't know if you've ever worn cheap boxers, but they suck.
Like, you know, but like, because the point was, I think we were doing an episode on because we obviously have to hit, like, people don't have, you know, you have to hit the ads at a certain timing, et cetera.
But we're talking about like transgender kids and like them removing the genitals of children.
And it's like coming up on the screen, like transition to underwear.
And we're like, yeah, I was like, I'm not transitioning from a segment about kids' genitals being chopped off and like them wearing like prosthetics in their underwear to a boxer commercial.
No, but kind of talking about this with like the ridiculousness is like that guy's a comedian, right?
This guy's a governor.
These are people that, you know, before we trusted institutions, we trust these people around us.
And now it seems like they're all on the same agenda.
And I don't understand when that happened when it like every institution has been taken over by these people and this one way of thinking where it's like, I don't even mind that they think like that, but it's coming to the point where they're becoming so aggressive and so militant that they've become unokay with the way I think.
And I feel like they're trying to instigate war.
And that's what, that's what it is.
They're going, oh, well, so you're calling for violence.
No, I'm not calling for violence.
You're getting violent towards me and you're asking me not to want to defend myself.
You're getting aggressive.
You're going into my kids' minds, into my kids' thought.
You're going to my kids' genitals.
You're going into their, you're going, I'm not like into their media.
You're going into my life, my movies.
I mean, even the new survivor, my poor wife, she was like, she was like, you know what?
I didn't think you could make survivor woke.
And I go, tell me what happened.
She goes, well, of course, the genderqueer character.
Yeah, but you know, so the host comes out, she says, and he's like, because I guess he always says, I don't watch the show, but he always says, come on, guys, or let's go, guys, and uses that phrase.
So he comes out and he comes out and goes, like, it's total fake.
The first episode, he's like, I feel like I just got to talk to everybody and figure out if we can still use the phrase, let's go, guys, because obviously it's not really inclusive.
And so they ask the transsexual and the genderqueer.
And ironically, they, I mean, unironically, they were just like, actually, we're not offended by that.
That's totally okay.
It doesn't offend me.
And they still retired it.
And we're like, well, we're going to go ahead and stop saying it because we really want to be more inclusive as a show.
So they stopped using gendered language on the show Survivor.
Like this show's about people being sadistic and mean and like running around naked and drinking coconut water.
That's true, but it's not even like you said, what can't these people ruin?
The people that are ruining it, as much as they're not like the transgender people, they're the activists.
If you go on Twitter, right, and you get into an argument or debate with someone, the people that are the most aggressive and the most angry are people that are that tend to have the pronouns in their bio, right?
That's a joke that you see.
It doesn't matter if the people that you're having a discourse with are trans or not.
It's the cis people that have their pronouns because they're allies.
Those are the people that are the most aggressive and the most aggressive, most, you know, you get the most vitriol out of.
So, it's not even about people that are, you know, happen to be trans or whatever, or gay or LGBT or whatever.
It's the people that consider themselves allies that are out there defending the rights of the trans people that are really the most aggressive and the ones.
And that's because it's an ideology.
There are plenty of people that are trans and plenty of people that are gay and in the LGBTQQ community that are that just want to live their life and be left alone, just like everybody else.
But it's the political activists, the people that consider themselves allies.
Those are the ones that have to force their opinion onto other people.
So, it's weird to say, or it's weird to think of it as just trans people or just the LGBT community because it's so frequently not.
It's the savior complex that so many liberals in the U.S. have.
You know, it's got just the buildings are shut down.
The homeless are roaming around.
It's dirty.
It's violent.
And you just look around and it's like a lost city and post-COVID.
And people there are so scared of COVID and they're so militantly left.
And it doesn't make any sense because they're also not that wealthy.
Milwaukee is not necessarily the most affluent region in the country.
These are a lot of blue-collar people.
There are the nice neighborhoods, of course, but you go there and it's just, it's like the lost, fallen American city of dreams that will never come back alive.
Yeah, I mean, I've always had a special place in my heart for Milwaukee just because there was this big festival back in the day there, the Milwaukee Metal Fest, and it was like the metal mecca.
It was, yeah, you know, and also, you know, being a dude from like the underground death metal bands and stuff, that's where Jeffrey Dahmer was.
And that was kind of like always something that all of me and my friends that were into like the gore metal were like, that's so creepy, you know, and like horror movie stuff.
You know, the worst part about this, too, Elijah, is that so someone posted this on Instagram and I was like, what's wrong with it?
And it actually took me like a good 10 seconds to realize that the face masks were there because I'm so used to seeing them now that I didn't even realize it at first.
We're going to add this to the diversity collection.
Actually, we're going to add to this.
We have a diversity collection where we just collect things that are horrible and like kind of racist and discriminatory and bigoted.
And you guys don't haven't gone away.
Like we have, like we have, we have to represent all the groups, right?
Like we have like a disabled black Barbie and like we're trying to get a golly wag from Australia, which are like the little like black remakes with like the black face dolls.
I'm sure he wasn't like, oh my God, I'm so offended that they made this doll.
I guarantee he's just like, oh, you know, it's funny because of the context surrounding the United States, not because of the Middle East or whatever, you know?
The people that actually love our inappropriate humor on the show are the people that people think get offended.
Like, it's actually, people think they call us transphobic and racist and bigoted.
And it's like actually kind of funny because there is like a lot of people that are out there that will even have debates and they're like, oh my gosh, it was so mean.
You know, this Amir guy is a black gay guy.
You're so, it's so savage.
I'm like, him and I are friends in real life.
Yeah.
You don't, you don't get to speak for me.
And, you know, some of these people that we even have on here, I'm like, we actually give a voice to a lot of different thoughts and perspectives.
And a lot of the people will enjoy it.
Just like I love good humor.
If you want to make fun of, you know, things about men or, you know, in good faith about women, I actually want to show you this.
We've lost the humor in all of this.
And I would say this is both humor and truthful, especially in terms of Savannah.
I didn't realize how based commercials were back in the day.
I'm not that old.
I'm 28 years old.
And so I didn't live around politically incorrect commercials.
I found this Goodyear commercial from I think the 70s.
So, the best part about Elijah showing me this as well is that I actually just blew out two of my tires a couple days ago and the cops had to come pick me up because I jumped a curb.
If you go Google Glenn Beck's net worth and you're going to feel really poor.
I'm not going to say it on here, but Google his net worth.
Go to Google or a DuckDuckGo, wherever.
By the way, I found out DuckDuckGo is not better than Google and that they're colluding with the same thing, that they're and they're now doing the same hiring practices where they're looking for transgenders and stuff.
And you know how that works.
When you start looking for people based off of look and class, then you end up getting a mindset and then the whole culture of the company changes and the company collapses internally into a leftist nightmare.
Anyway, DuckDuck goes down the down the tubes for me.
But I was saying with the commercial though, back to that for a second, is it's funny because you look at that and today everyone's arguing that that's sexist.
I was like, I just got a new car recently, and we have a garage where it's parked.
Someone broke into the garage, like jacked cars next to mine, and also hit my car while they apparently were in the process of this or scratched up the side of it.
And it's going to be like $7,000 or $8,000 for body.
So, yeah, speaking of that, it's like we also have some of this interesting thing, too, is that I'll just put it somewhere on the topic of women.
And the weirdness.
So, women actually, this is weird.
It's like the idea of women not being good drivers is the fun part where society has always been that, you know, women have strengths, men have strengths, women have weaknesses, men have weaknesses, and we compliment each other.
It's quite nice, actually, if you're in the right dynamic to where you can compliment one another.
But apparently, you know, women have been acknowledged with this hatred of men.
And so we have masked Jesus.
Our tires are politically correct today.
And if we can go to video seven, there's also this pervading acknowledgement that, you know, men are evil and that men are actually racist if we're not trans.
I'm here to double down on the video that made me go viral.
Most men are rapists.
And by that, I mean most cis heteronormative men.
There's a reason we say we live in a rape culture.
Most rapes go unreported, some even unknown.
And the way rape is portrayed and glamorized in movies and media misrepresents what most rape actually looks like.
Let's just look at the updated definition of rape so that everybody's clear.
The penetration, no matter how slight of the vagina or anus or any other body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another person without the consent of the victim.
Are you buying somebody drinks with the goal of getting them drunk enough so that they can't consent?
Rapist.
Coercing somebody into sex.
Rapist.
Guilting or manipulating someone into having sex with you?
Rapist.
Dating coaches and pickup artists have normalized this kind of behavior.
And if you engage in any of those things, you'll be known as a rapist.
Yeah, and also, ma'am, you could also put, they always, they always talk about preventing sexual assault while they intentionally bring their breasts into the shot.
I have to bring that up.
It is all, we talk about this on the show, Savannah.
10 times out of 10, when they are talking about sexual assault or something inappropriate, they want to stop, they have low-cut shirts and make sure that parts of their breasts are visible.
That it's like, it's definitely an attention-seeking moment where they want to lecture you and be morally superior and tell you something, but also I got a little cute while saying it.
But you know what's funny too is that I love this when she goes, I love how the same person that will tell you that, you know, coercing someone into doing something they don't want to do is rape, but also vaccine mandates are legit.
The whole context that she lays out, the idea that trying to win someone's favor by going out and going to a bar and buying them drinks and talking to them.
I mean, if you're looking to get a girl blackout drunk or putting drugs in her drink, okay, that's rape.
That's clear.
But if you're just like, if you buy a couple drinks and you're talking to someone in a social context, it is not rape if she decides to go home with a guy who bought her a couple drinks.
Like the idea that social situations are inherently rape situations throws an absolute mess into how people interact socially.
And it's probably why there are a lot of men that are just like, well, I'm not going to go out and try and talk to anyone because it's not worth it, you know?
But I think it's clear that just going to going into social situations with members of the opposite sex is not rape.
Is that why everybody's identifying as bisexual today?
I was reading a study that it's like it's some staggering number of individuals compared to 10 years ago.
I don't know if they're open or they're out or if people have always been like this, but a huge staggering portion of the LGBTQ community or whatever they're calling it today are really just bisexual.
Like the B is the biggest part.
They're actually bisexual.
And that's the fastest growing number of people.
And I wonder if these weird interactions and the way that we've changed things between opposite genders has kind of just left people to abandon traditional sense at all.
And they're just kind of looking for these random illicit hookups.
I wonder that's like kind of why hookup culture is so popular too.
Because people are just like, look, I'm not going to go through the bullshit.
We're just going to do our thing and we're just going to do whatever.
I think that it's probably because it's a being in the LGBT group is kind of a way to be a little different, I guess, even though it's not really all that different nowadays.
You know, with like a whole gay pride month and everything like that, it's not like it's some kind of odd.
It's not, it doesn't make you interesting because of your sexuality.
But I think that there is a group of people that, or a portion of the young people, think that having a sexuality that is not what they would consider vanilla makes them interesting.
Yeah, I want to know his idea because the point is that I was reading a study recently, and this is why I'm saying younger people is that one study I read was that 56% of junior hires consider themselves LGBTQ right now at one school.
Because a woman moved in next door who had a baby and she would complain and complain and complain until legally I wasn't even allowed to play my drums anymore.
And a white woman stopped my dreams, stopped my dreams.
And nowadays with all the plugins that are available in any kind of DAW, whether it be Pro Tools or Q-Base or whatever, you can have a nice sounding drum kit and play it and earphones and play it out.
Yeah, I think that we should get one up here in the studio.
Anyway, before we go any further, I got to let you guys know something.
Obviously, you know in your life that things in this world don't make sense.
And one thing that doesn't make sense at all is the attack on the family structure, but also health insurance.
So, you know, you're either in one of two positions.
Either you don't have health insurance, and so if you get into a medical emergency, you're screwed, or you do have health insurance.
And if you're in that second group, you probably have high deductibles that will still leave you screwed if anything major happens in your life with all these types of bills, which is why you have to do something a step further, whether you're insured or not, and join the safety net community.
If you go to safetynet.club, that's S-A-F-E-T-Y-N-E-T.club.
You're going to join a community of people and get options for products that can actually help you to take your health into your own hands, either for yourself or your family.
Let me explain.
So obviously, you end up in a position, you get into a car accident, something bad happens to you, you lose a limb, you lose an eye.
Just by joining the community today, you automatically, in those situations, would get a $10,000 payout, like a sort of a disability to help you to recover costs while you're waiting for your disability to kick in, or if you don't have it, so you don't go bankrupt and you can eat.
That's cool.
Also, sadly, as we talked about earlier, if you die and you have your real estate will, well, guess what?
Your family gets left with a dumb bill to pay for your funeral.
The last thing you want to do is leave your family screwed to cover the cost of your death.
So they'll also give $10,000 to your family to pay for your funeral costs or to help cover bills.
For instance, if you're a new couple or whatever happens, you don't have savings.
That's cool.
Just for joining.
That's your ADND insurance.
So it's like you already get $10,000 life security for joining.
But also, if you end up getting into an emergency, you end up getting into a car accident, something bad happens in your life, you know, you go to the emergency room and then you all have no way to cover all those high deductibles and all that stuff.
Well, guess what?
For about $15 a month, you can actually get accident coverage.
Like this is one of the things that's what I like from them.
For $15 a month, about $15 for me at least, they'll cover the gaps in your insurance and the bills that you get, which is a no-brainer because I'm kind of stupid and I get into dumb things and I get punched and stuff for what I do and the things that I say.
So anyway, if you want to join the safety net community, I encourage you to join to get your $10,000 ADD insurance at no cost to you.
And also check out today what they can offer in the products to help fill the gaps in your insurance or to offer products if you don't have insurance at all.
Go to safetynet.club.
That's S-A-F-E-T-Y-N-E-T.
C-L-U-B.
That's S-A-F-E-T-Y-N-T-Y-N-E-T.
Yeah.
And so with these, with with this, by the way, this is so great.
I love the SafetyNet community.
And the idea of like what's going on in the world and like how things are crazy.
Do we have, I don't think we can play, I don't think we can play music here, but we have the Australian stormtroopers.
Obviously, with things going crazy in the world, I don't know if you know this.
You know, and this is what's crazy is that this is a perfect example that Mike Cernovich said proves of how well removing the right to gun ownership works.
This is a class lesson to show you that the desired effect of removing a population's firearms works very well.
Either shows you not to give up your guns, but also shows other governments how necessary it is, like in the United States, to try to still remove our guns because they need that in order to do this.
Because I don't think Americans would put up with this shit.
I think that things like this being, you know, being spread around the U.S., you see what's going on in Australia and these images making their way around the U.S.
I think that it makes people that are gun owners and that are more independently minded.
It makes them dig in.
There's a lot of people that are anti-gun or private gun ownership that think that the reason that gun legislation or anti-gun legislation has not been passed is because the NRA.
And that is an error.
The reason that there hasn't been any significant anti-gun legislation is because it is unpopular with some of the most motivated to vote individuals in the U.S.
And I think that stuff like that only reinforces the idea of, hey, you need to be able to defend yourself from aggression up to and including state aggression.
And nobody's asking for the things that you're talking about.
But there are people asking the government to do to others the things that you're talking about.
So you're right.
There's no one saying, hey, come oppress me, come beat me, come take my rights.
But there are unquestionably a Vocal minority in the U.S. that are asking the government to violate the rights of other people.
And they will ostensibly say that they believe that it's for the good of all the people or the good of the country or whatever.
But really, what it is, is it is to harm people that are on the other team.
And I think that that is an honest take.
There's a lot of people that you can read stories from that have been in authoritarian countries.
And the population quickly realizes that you can use the government to harm people that you don't like by turning them in or whatever, which you see, you know, you see here in the U.S. when it comes to the people that want to film someone that's not wearing a mask in a place that they decide you should be wearing a mask and they want to go ahead and put it on the internet and make it go viral and hopefully these people will lose their job or whatever.
But there is definitely a segment of the population that is interested in using the government to assert their will over their fellow citizens.
And that's why it's pretty malicious in my opinion.
They always make up new letterings, these academics.
You always see so many letters.
You're like, look, I don't know what any of those mean.
You're either retarded or you're not.
So you either know what you're talking about.
Even if I don't like what you're talking about, you're making sense and that's fine.
Or you're like this woman who, of course, deflects her deep-seated hatred for those who are not vaccinated by quoting the New York Times analysis saying, Trump supporters believe they are owning the left by refusing to take a life-saving vaccine.
Which, first of all, I debunk this to her.
I go, Trump supporters don't think they're owning the left by not getting a vaccine because this is technically Trump's vaccine.
If really, you would, the warp speech, this was Trump's sanctioning.
I know this was in development for a while, but this is Trump's vaccine.
How are you owning the left by a project that was put into place and executed primarily by the president that they all like?
So there you go.
You're dumb.
So it's refusing to take a life-saving vaccine.
We'll just say that YouTube says it is a life-saving vaccine.
I am not personally as convinced about certain things, but that's, I'm not a doctor.
Okay.
So she is.
She goes, in a country where elections are decided on razor-thin margins, does it not benefit one side if their opponents simply drop dead?
And I bring that up because it's funny that they're kind of saying what we all know they're thinking.
Anyone that will say something like that or tweet something like that thinks that it would be better if the people that just disagreed with them would die.
And they would support loading people into prisons, gulags, whatever you want to call them, boxcars, however you want to hyperbolically state it.
If you think it's overkill, I don't give a shit.
Like they would unironically say, yes, those people are the bad people, and they need to be physically removed from society without hesitation.
There's no part of me that doesn't believe that they absolutely want to see people they disagree with removed from society in some way, whether it be killing people or just tossing them into prison or taking them out of the public sphere by getting rid of their ability to have a bank account,
getting rid of their ability to comment on social media, essentially just if they can't kill them or throw them in jail, unperson them to the point where they can't work, can't provide for their family, and eventually they die destitute.
That's what those people want.
And there is no part of me that thinks or that could be made to believe something else.
There are people out there that want to see other people that disagree with them die.
Right here, discretion, epidemiology and global health security policy.
This is about creating policies, like actual things that would affect through law.
These are like the eugenicists and people that work for Hitler.
I mean, these people, by the way, being from the scientific community, these are absolute narcissists.
And there is a total elitism where they think that they're better than everybody.
And just so you know, there's a reason why we have so many regulatory agencies and things to hold these people back because these are some sick people.
You should even see the sex stuff they're into and stuff.
These people that are nerds that have been repressed, made fun of.
A lot of these kinks come out of like even, you think it's the rock stars that are into these crazy kinks.
Believe me, it's these PhDs that are buying spaces in dungeons and getting women to walk on their balls with heels and stuff.
It's these people.
It's true.
They're into some sick stuff.
I know.
But I'm just saying, like, it's interesting.
Even if you go back here for a second, she's quoting the analysis by David Leonard, who's a senior writer of the New York Times.
It's like, this is so crazy that the New York Times, one of the senior publications of the United States, is suggesting that, well, paper of record.
Yeah.
This is the best case scenario here, really, on our end, is if you guys all just went away.
Progressivism, whether you're talking about progressivism today or progressivism of the early 20th century, they believe that they can remake man.
And that's whether you're talking about the new Soviet man, it's all like Nietzschean ideas of the Ubermensch, you know, the overman, the perfected human.
That's one of the things that you consistently see coming from progressives.
They believe that the sins of mankind can be fixed through science and proper upbringing.
They believe that everything is a situation of nurture and that nature has nothing to do with it.
And it's not one over the other.
It's a mix of both.
And people like that, they look at humankind and they say, well, we just have to get rid of the bad ones and the people that have the bad ideas.
And then we'll only be left with people that have the good ideas.
And that's how you end up murdering millions of people.
Well, at least you can always get into radio because you can always get into podcasting as you are because it's a nice voice.
Well, I want you to know, check out his music.
It is really amazing.
Also realize he will be live tonight with Alex Jones on You Are Here.
We're also having Alex Jones exclusive for this show on Friday.
Well, he's recording earlier, but we're going to do a little deep dive into who is Alex Jones, looking into his past, and try to understand why he's so dangerous.
Like, why is Alex Jones dangerous?
And why, and, like, what's where did this start?
You know what I mean?
And like, we want to get into it with him, his history.
I, I think that, I think that Alex Jones is dangerous because he's not afraid.
And there's a lot of people out there that are, that, that might take issue with this, but not afraid to look silly when he's talking about things he's passionate about.
You know, he's not afraid.
He doesn't hold back.
He's not, uh, he's not concerned with, you know, if he's going to be saying things that are outside of the accepted norms, you know.
Dude, the best meme I saw was with the, as we wrap this up with the, with the border police, with the horses, the best quote I saw was someone said, if you want to piss the libs off even more, let them know those horses were taking Iver Mecton.
unidentified
So it's like, I don't know, I thought that was, I thought that was so good.
It says, there are moments where they make me rethink some of my political and cultural stances.
That's great.
Don't stop being slightly offensive.
P.S. Bring back the Diversity Coalition.
We are, they never went away.
They are just busy being re-educated and gulags right now so they can re-educate us.
Anyway, thank you for that review.
We also review from Sir Spence a lot.
It says, dis show fire fire, no cap, no, no emoji.
This homie E. Shafe steady kicking it with at least two hot rods coming through with the alpha energy, shoving clown pills down all these Beta Cucks throat.
When the kid Johnny D pull up, they get wild and talking dash she is a vibe.
Anyway, I want to let you know if you go to YouTube, well, subscribe here on YouTube.
Also, if you go to blazetv.com/slash Elijah, I think right now we actually are giving $25 off.
I think we're still offering that.
I'm not sure.
It could be $10 off our subscription, which makes it cheaper than Netflix, where you get all these shows.
And honestly, even tonight with Alex, we're going to be doing half of it on YouTube, and then we're going to take it off air, and we're going to go hard on vaccines and everything on Blaze TV, which is the fun part where we actually get to talk shit without sensors.
And then because we're demonetized, we're going to be having a last segment on Blaze TV where we take comments from Blaze TV and interact with the audience on Blaze TV, the SOB.
So that's really cool too.
It's kind of a workaround to not having super chats of like, we'll just go behind the paywall and take questions from the paywall.
So that'll be really cool.
So that'll give you more bang for your buck.
Anyway, my name is Elijah Schaefer, and I'm the host of Slightly Offensive, The Best Worst Show on Blaze TV.
