=== Political Correctness for White People Only (08:29) ===

[00:00:00]  He never went back to Minneapolis.
[00:00:02]  What do you think being a black person about the tape that came out of him and caused all that controversy?
[00:00:09]  Hogan don't have a racist bone nowhere in his body.
[00:00:14]  The problem with the world today, and I may get in trouble for saying this, political correctness is for white people only.
[00:00:22]  If blacks do not want white people to use the N-word, then they have to stop using it.
[00:00:27]  You can't tell one person, I could do this, but you can't do it.
[00:00:33]  That to me is reverse racism.
[00:00:36]  There was a tab, they told black people that white people could do this, white people go in this restaurant, but you can't because you black.
[00:00:42]  Black people could go and check at this hotel, but you can't because you black.
[00:00:46]  Now they're telling black people, white people, black people could say this, but you can't say this.
[00:00:51]  That was wrong.
[00:00:52]  And I think the only reason they did it is to break him down so they can have more control over him.
[00:00:57]  That's my opinion.
[00:00:58]  You know, when Hogan went back to do tough enough and all that stuff, he could write his own check.
[00:01:04]  I think what Hogan did, once they did that to him, now he got to crawl back.
[00:01:10]  Yeah, God, you show for y'all.
[00:01:11]  Damn good show.
[00:01:12]  Before we get to today's video, I want to tell you about my new giveaway.
[00:01:15]  F-250 King Ranch and Camper and $10,000 and cold hard.
[00:01:20]  White American.
[00:01:21]  Get in the winters, go to picturehawkstwins.com.
[00:01:24]  Anything by my site, like my coffee, beef telebum, or my Methylene blue, get you automatically in the win.
[00:01:31]  Now, there's a lot of black people who worked around Hulk Hogan, was wrestlers with Hulk Hogan, like Ice T is.
[00:01:37]  What's the other black guy was a wrestler?
[00:01:39]  Iced T.
[00:01:40]  I mean, not Iced T, Mr. T.
[00:01:42]  Yeah.
[00:01:42]  He said Ice T.
[00:01:44]  No, not that, not that woke fool.
[00:01:48]  Mr. T. Mr. T.
[00:01:49]  Yeah.
[00:01:50]  Yeah.
[00:01:50]  And what was the other guy with?
[00:01:51]  Booker T. Booker T.
[00:01:52]  So a lot of people that worked around him wrestled with him.
[00:01:55]  They don't say he's racist because they know him personally.
[00:01:57]  Yeah.
[00:01:58]  But anyway, anybody that's got common sense, you know, that man's not racist.
[00:02:02]  He's probably prejudiced.
[00:02:03]  Just like me, I'm prejudiced against black folks.
[00:02:05]  I'm prejudiced against a lot of people.
[00:02:07]  But you don't necessarily, I'm not racist.
[00:02:09]  Yeah, you're not going to discriminate.
[00:02:11]  I'm not going to discriminate, but I will judge the hell out of you when I first meet you until I get to know you.
[00:02:16]  Then my prejudices will subside.
[00:02:20]  All right, so Joey Swole, very popular, huge following on social media.
[00:02:27]  Doing God's work.
[00:02:29]  Yeah, doing a lot of good things.
[00:02:31]  Yeah.
[00:02:31]  He was doing God's work in the jail, right?
[00:02:34]  So Joey Swole was wearing a Halloween costume of Hulk Hogan and it upset a lot of his fans.
[00:02:40]  He's got...
[00:02:41]  Yeah, he's paying tribute to Hulk Hogan when he passed away.
[00:02:43]  Yeah, but I think Joey Swole has like six, seven million followers.
[00:02:46]  I think it's more than that.
[00:02:47]  I think it's eight million.
[00:02:48]  Yeah, he has a huge following.
[00:02:50]  So I don't know, seven, eight million.
[00:02:52]  I'm sure it's going to piss somebody off.
[00:02:54]  Yeah.
[00:02:54]  But so he was really empathetic about how they felt.
[00:02:58]  So he apologized.
[00:02:58]  He actually cares about people.
[00:03:03]  So he apologized.
[00:03:04]  This is a panic video.
[00:03:05]  Yeah, you can tell Joey Swole is a very good guy, man.
[00:03:08]  Yeah.
[00:03:08]  Well, not too conservatives now.
[00:03:11]  Huh?
[00:03:11]  You cannot apologize to the woke mob because Hulk Hogan already apologized for saying those.
[00:03:17]  Well, we're so divided, the left and the right.
[00:03:19]  Like, we got a lot of heat for our criticism about what's going on in the Middle East.
[00:03:23]  A lot of, we get a lot of pushback.
[00:03:25]  He got a lot of pushback for apologizing for this.
[00:03:29]  He shouldn't have never apologized.
[00:03:30]  He just should have just stuck to his guns.
[00:03:32]  But I understand why he wants to do that because he's got such a big heart and he just wants to be friends with everybody.
[00:03:38]  But in this time of day, you can't do that.
[00:03:41]  You're going to have to pick a side.
[00:03:43]  Well, you can...
[00:03:45]  Well, that's evil on both sides, but it's way more evil on the left.
[00:03:49]  Yeah, but a lot of people don't feel he should apologize.
[00:03:52]  This is apology video.
[00:03:54]  Followers, my community, and all of I owe my followers, my community, and all of social media an apology.
[00:04:01]  A few days ago, I reposted an old video of me in the gym wearing a Hulk Hogan Halloween costume on the day that he passed.
[00:04:09]  Yeah, that's going to trigger the left.
[00:04:12]  You look like Hulk Hogan.
[00:04:16]  That will trigger the woke fool on the left.
[00:04:19]  Yep.
[00:04:21]  Last night in my live stream, a lot of people expressed how upset and frustrated they were with me that I had posted that.
[00:04:28]  Instead of listening and understanding like I should have, I became defensive and said that I was posting to celebrate the wrestling icon, the person that so many of us looked up to as kids that we grew up with that made us tear our shirts and take our vitamins and say our prayers.
[00:04:44]  I didn't know to the extent of all the horrible things that he had done.
[00:04:48]  Since last night, I have done.
[00:04:51]  He said the N-word.
[00:04:52]  He didn't want his daughter sleeping with N-words.
[00:04:55]  Yeah.
[00:04:55]  I mean, personally, I don't see nothing wrong with that.
[00:04:59]  I think there was some kind of speculation.
[00:05:02]  He replaced some people of color with other models because they're, I think.
[00:05:06]  I don't hear that.
[00:05:07]  Yeah, it was a while back.
[00:05:08]  I don't know.
[00:05:09]  I didn't verify.
[00:05:10]  I don't know if it's true, but you know, he's got a beard that came out and he had a person of color representing and they replaced it with a white girl, something to that effect.
[00:05:20]  I don't know what the whole backstory, but you know, if you're running a brand, you have a, I mean, if I'm running a brand, I'm going to choose the people that I want to represent my brand.
[00:05:29]  I don't know all the details and legatis behind all what went down, but they replaced a girl, a person of color with a non-person of color.
[00:05:39]  I mean, yeah, Joey used the word horrible.
[00:05:41]  I mean, horrible?
[00:05:44]  I wouldn't call it horrible.
[00:05:46]  I mean, but yeah.
[00:05:47]  To me, I don't think that the N-word is a horrible word, but there is a such thing as black fragility in this country.
[00:05:54]  Yeah.
[00:05:54]  Woke fragility.
[00:05:56]  I mean, Tony Atlas brought that up at the beginning of our video.
[00:06:00]  And you said yourself, Joe, at the beginning of your apology, you was, when you did that video, you was recognizing the wrestling icon.
[00:06:07]  Not the bad things he did.
[00:06:09]  You was recognizing the good things.
[00:06:11]  Yeah.
[00:06:12]  You know, you wasn't, I mean, we don't judge people by all the bad things they've done.
[00:06:16]  We look at their whole life in totality and we make our decisions about that person.
[00:06:21]  I mean, nobody's perfect in this world.
[00:06:23]  I've said some off-color things about black people and white people.
[00:06:27]  I've said way more things off-color about black folks than white folks, but that doesn't make me a bad person.
[00:06:32]  It makes me human.
[00:06:34]  We all are prejudiced to a certain degree.
[00:06:36]  Every last one is.
[00:06:38]  It's not a means from being prejudiced.
[00:06:39]  It's just, it's a, it makes, it would, it, what makes us human.
[00:06:45]  I've done a lot of research, talked to a few people, and learned all of the horrible, horrible things that that man has done, which is way more than just making a mistake and being human.
[00:06:56]  So because of that, I have taken the videos down and I apologize to anybody that I offended.
[00:07:02]  I am sorry.
[00:07:04]  Also, during last night's live stream, I used the word colored instead of saying person of color, which is a very outdated, very offensive.
[00:07:12]  I mean, is it outdated?
[00:07:14]  Yeah, but the National Association of Colored people, that's an organization.
[00:07:19]  They still have their name colored in their name.
[00:07:22]  If you're offended by someone calling you a colored person, the problem is you.
[00:07:27]  He's probably thinking that was, maybe he doesn't like colored people, but black.
[00:07:31]  I mean, I've never seen a black person in my life.
[00:07:35]  I think black is more derogatory than colored.
[00:07:38]  I'd rather be called colored.
[00:07:39]  Who wants to be called black?
[00:07:42]  Look, this is black, my shirt.
[00:07:46]  Have you looked up the definition of black?
[00:07:48]  It's horrible.
[00:07:51]  Offensive term.
[00:07:52]  A few moments later, somebody educated me and told me that it wasn't okay to use that, which I immediately apologized to everyone and said I would never do that again.
[00:08:02]  So the same video he's wearing a Hulk Hogan outfit and he's called somebody.
[00:08:11]  What the hell's going on here?
[00:08:14]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:08:15]  Anybody that I offended, I am sorry.
[00:08:18]  You know, my whole page, my whole brand is based on holding people accountable and doing better.
[00:08:25]  I would be a hypocrite if I didn't hold myself to the same standards.

=== Sacrificing Love to Fix the Situation (03:01) ===

[00:08:29]  I am human.
[00:08:30]  I am still growing.
[00:08:31]  I am still learning.
[00:08:32]  And I promise all of you, I will do better.
[00:08:35]  I have nothing but love and kindness in my heart.
[00:08:39]  I will continue to try to make the world a better place.
[00:08:41]  And once again, to everybody, I apologize.
[00:08:45]  Yeah, he's just a real genuine, nice guy.
[00:08:50]  He felt bad.
[00:08:50]  He felt bad how people see him.
[00:08:52]  So he apologized.
[00:08:53]  He doesn't want that.
[00:08:54]  But conservatives just pretty much like torched him and left him for dead.
[00:08:59]  So now you got the left torching him.
[00:09:01]  Now you got the right torching him.
[00:09:02]  He's like, so he came out with this statement.
[00:09:06]  All the good I've done, all the people I've helped, all for nothing.
[00:09:09]  When I need help, when I need kindness and empathy, nothing.
[00:09:12]  I truly hope all the people I've inspired do great things in their life and pay it forward to help others and carry on my message.
[00:09:18]  But no matter how much good you do, no matter how many people you help, they just wait for a reason to hate you and tear you down.
[00:09:25]  It's true.
[00:09:26]  You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.
[00:09:29]  Thank you for your support.
[00:09:31]  Please remember me and smile.
[00:09:32]  I love you all.
[00:09:33]  I'm done.
[00:09:34]  So I'm thinking maybe he's done about this situation.
[00:09:36]  He's not going to talk about it anymore.
[00:09:38]  Yeah.
[00:09:38]  I don't see him quitting.
[00:09:39]  I don't think he's quitting.
[00:09:40]  He might take a little break, but he'll be back.
[00:09:42]  Yeah.
[00:09:42]  And you know what?
[00:09:44]  I'm not going to judge him for this apology video.
[00:09:47]  Like, he's an entrepreneur.
[00:09:50]  I guarantee you, in my humble opinion, the reason why he made this apology is because it's hurting business opportunities for him to put food on his table and to provide for his family.
[00:10:02]  And before we judge him, how many of you went out there and took the jab to keep your job or took the jab so you can go to school or to travel?
[00:10:11]  Yeah.
[00:10:12]  I mean, he might be in that same situation.
[00:10:14]  He had to do an apology video.
[00:10:15]  I'm not, I don't know that for sure, but I'm just speculating here.
[00:10:19]  I'm thinking there has to be more to the story.
[00:10:22]  Yeah.
[00:10:22]  Or maybe he's just a very nice guy who felt horrible for the things people was telling him about Hulk Hogan.
[00:10:31]  I don't know.
[00:10:32]  But we can't just, I mean, we push back on cancel culture, right?
[00:10:38]  So why are we trying to cancel him?
[00:10:39]  Well, I don't think we're trying to cancel him.
[00:10:41]  I think they canceled.
[00:10:44]  But the right and the left went in on him on Facebook.
[00:10:48]  Yeah, and it's like, which, you know, I don't think he should have apologized, but I mean, he is his own man and his own person.
[00:10:58]  So he has the right to do whatever he wants to do.
[00:11:01]  I think that's why he apologized.
[00:11:03]  Yeah.
[00:11:03]  And we was lucky during COVID.
[00:11:05]  Right.
[00:11:06]  Like, we're self-employed.
[00:11:08]  We don't work for anybody else.
[00:11:09]  And I hear countless stories of people.
[00:11:12]  Man, I'm going to lose my job if I don't take this shot.
[00:11:15]  I'm going to lose everything if I don't get this shot.
[00:11:17]  So when you set between a rock and a hard place.
[00:11:19]  Sometimes you have to sacrifice.
[00:11:22]  You have to make a deal with the devil.
[00:11:24]  Maybe this is Joy Swoe situation.
[00:11:26]  Maybe he has to make a deal with the devil to keep his businesses going.
[00:11:29]  I don't know.
[00:11:30]  Yeah.
