Google Whistleblower Zach Vorhies On How Big Tech Will Fix Midterm Election! | JustInformed Talk #01

Time Text
Welcome to my show.
Welcome to another episode, well actually a new episode of the relaunching of Just Informed Talk.
So this is going to be the long form sit down interview podcast where I bring on special guests to talk about what's going on in their life and give you an idea of how they feel about everything going on in the world.
We're going to cover a lot of different topics.
So with that being said, I would love to introduce you all to a guest.
You may know him, you may not, but he's a We're good to go.
Censorship has finally ended with the launch of a new service called Blast.Video.
Alright, wait, wait, wait.
Before we get into that, Zach, tell people about who you are and what you're doing and kind of give them an introduction in case they don't know you.
Okay, so my name is Zach Voorhees.
You may know me as the Google whistleblower who disclosed to you, the general public, 950 pages detailing Google's censorship regime and the algorithms that they were pushing and the design documents about how to capture the information landscape that you participate in and rig it so that you only see globalist propaganda.
This is something that happened in 2016 with the election of Donald Trump.
I thought it was wrong.
I was regretful that I participated in this totalitarian machine.
And so as an act of atonement, I disclosed to you how Google was doing their censorship.
But there was a problem.
And that problem was that from 2019, when I came out to until today, I've pretty much been on the sidelines doing nothing more than complaining about And I felt that as sort of the final act in this project of disclosure, that I would fix the censorship by making a new type of social media system called an aggregator.
My impetus for making this is that I actually tried to get other people to do it, but they wouldn't do it.
So I was like, well, I'm a software engineer, pretty good, pretty obsessive about it.
And this seems like something that I can fix for myself.
And so right after Joe Biden got elected, I decided to start studying web design.
And I came up with what I think is the best website for video on the internet 24-7.
And if it's not, I'm going to make sure that it is every single day.
Introducing Blast.video, which you can kind of see behind me.
It's a YouTube-like experience.
It features 250 of the top thought leaders in the conservative movement.
You're on there, Craig, as a bunch of other people.
And basically what my site does is that it scans every one of these content creators every hour for new content.
It takes those videos that it finds, it brings it all together in one single area called blast.video where it serves it to you.
And so what we're going to do now is, I mean, the reason why I did this is because I realized that censorship had an Achilles heel.
And that, in fact, aggregation cancels censorship.
And that's my thesis with this website, which is that aggregation cancels censorship.
And, you know, essentially, you no longer have to play the social media shuffle.
You know how that game works.
You go to BitChute, you go to Rumble, you chase these links.
You're constantly trying to figure out what every person's trying to say throughout the day.
It's actually very time consuming.
And if you're the type that plays the social media shuffle, then chances are you're just going to tap out and say, ah, it's too complex to find all this stuff.
And ta-da!
Now it's not.
Now it's all in one single place called Blast.Video.
We're launching it today, March 29th.
So, hey, you know what's amazing is everything you're saying speaks directly to me as a content creator, especially now that I've been banned from YouTube, being banned from, you know, Twitter, Facebook.
I mean, every major social media platform has banned me.
Patreon, GoFundMe, etc.
Indeed.com.
I don't even know how that worked.
What you've done here is amazing.
If you guys go to blast.video, you've got to try it out.
It's so interesting because you go there and it's literally just all the content from everywhere.
When you click the link, you're not going to his website, Zach's website.
You're going to wherever that link is housed.
If I put up a video and you go to his website and it pops up and you click it, you're going to go to BitChute.
Or you're going to go to Rumble, and then you're going to be able to play it, like it, share it, and it's just like you're there.
So it's an amazing product.
That's just kind of the tip of the iceberg.
When you start diving into the website and going through some of the ways that it's kind of put together, it's just amazing.
A really great thing.
And I think, you know, the fact that you're doing it is what we've needed as people to get, just basically go out and make these platforms that are alternatives that actually work.
And like you said, save time.
I mean, how much time do you think it saves for somebody to just go to blast.video as opposed to somewhere else?
So I love it.
I think it's a great idea.
So, when you left Google, and you did everything with the whistleblowing, how did that change your life?
And what kind of path do you think it put you on to where you are today?
How did it affect you?
Are you still having problems?
Is Google still hounding you about things?
How does that work now?
Yeah, so from 2016 to 2019, when I blew the whistle, I would sort of characterize Google's descent into totalitarianism.
And for me, it was a personal destruction of my worldview because I... I used to think that Google was it, right?
Like they've got libertarian values.
It's all about people expressing themselves.
And I was like, yes, yes, that's exactly how I believe the world should work too.
Like just let people be themselves and get out of their way.
And then in 2016, obviously Trump won the election and Google was like, we need to put the lid on Back on the bottle.
We got to put the genie back in the bottle and put a lid on this populism.
And they actually came out and said that a week after Trump got elected at their famous sort of all hands meeting that got leaked to Breitbart.
Can I ask you, were you there that day?
I was actually watching it from my San Bruno office at YouTube.
I used to actually go to the All Hands meeting because they were held in Mountain View, the main campus, 1600 Amphitheater.
That's where I worked.
I would go and watch them on Fridays and they moved it to Thursdays.
When they gave this really famous thing, I was sitting at my desk in San Bruno at the YouTube office.
Yeah, so that's another thing we'll get into.
You've talked about this many times, and I think people who've watched you know about it.
But, like, it's crazy.
You were working at YouTube, so you firsthand saw what they were doing to people like myself and Sean over at SGG and everyone else.
And so what was that like?
Was YouTube really hands-on with, like, we've got to shut these people down, we've got to censor this, we've got to get it off?
What were the people talking about, like, about QAnon or any of that stuff?
How did the conversations go in those buildings with your coworkers?
Yeah.
They were really scared about Russian disinformation coming in, because remember at the time, the mainstream media was saying the lie that Putin hacked the DNC server and stole all of their internal emails, and then Jack Posobiec said the Pizzagate thing because of the emails from John Podesta.
And so if you look...
On the Google Trends map, you'll notice that fake news didn't ramp up slowly.
It hit pretty much around, I think it was October 9th is when it came in.
The graph now, because so much time has passed, you can only get on a five-year schedule, so you can't figure out which day it actually happened.
But fake news became a term by the establishment around October 9th.
And they were using that to discredit the stories that were coming out.
Right, because what happened on the exact same day, if you take a graph of trends.google.com, you take a graph of Pizzagate, and you line it up to fake news, they both got activated at the same time.
And so what happened was, you know, oh, Pizzagate, oh, that's fake news.
And then from that day forward, fake news became this...
Sort of this operating manual for what Google needed to do, which was to stop the fake news and boost up authoritative content.
They didn't actually let us know that they were going to actually boost up authoritative content until June 2017 at the stream conference that YouTube did for all their employees.
And I saw that in person.
I was just horrified.
Tell us about that.
Tell us about that.
Yeah, so I'm working at YouTube.
Everyone's kind of losing their minds, going insane, going on this Russia hysteria.
And then there was like, hey, there's this all-hands meeting.
We have one about once a year.
Um, where it's all the employees go on a trip and they get us hotels and then we get to have fun.
We get to have free food, free drinks, like team building exercises.
And then at the end, they have this like main stage area where the CEO talks to everyone and some VIPs come and talk to everyone.
And it's, it's really like a, like a very expensive event.
I'm sure they dropped over $10 million for this employee thing.
Um, and On stage, the topic was fake news and how they had to get rid of fake news.
And what was really interesting was that they had this industry veteran from Fox And I think he ran like CBS or something else.
And he came up and he's like, actually, you know, he basically like poo-pooed the whole idea of eliminating fake news.
Because he's like, well, actually, it's a very, very complicated subject, this fake news.
And I was like, oh, yeah, tell us more about this complicated subject of fake news in the media.
Because, you know, by then I was getting red-pilled and I started to realize that, oh, my gosh, if...
This is how fake the news is now.
How fake is history?
And I started realizing that a lot of the history that were coming up was basically manufactured by the establishment to get us into various wars at the Gulf of Tonkin, to get us into Vietnam.
It turns out that they knew that Pearl Harbor was probably going to happen.
The babies being tossed on floors for the lead-up to the Iraq War, that turned out that that was all fake.
And so...
This whole idea that fake news was like this new thing was just completely insane.
In truth, fake news is a part of the media establishment.
But despite all that, despite this guy saying that, this industry veteran saying that there's no way you can get rid of fake news, Susan Wachowski went on the stage in a very popular speech.
In fact, I could even possibly bring it up.
Second area, fake news.
This is a hard area.
You know, a year ago we didn't have the term fake news.
Now everything is about fake news.
We hear about it every single day.
It's had a lot of concerns about how it affected the election, how it affects politics.
News is important to us.
We are a platform with global distribution.
We talked about the number of users that are coming to us.
We have some responsibility to make sure that we are delivering the news when something important happens in the world, when there's a crisis.
We think people could benefit from this news.
So news has always been important to YouTube.
We also see people in locations like Syria, where traditional news organizations can't get to, and people are talking about citizen journalism coming out of Syria.
So what are we doing?
This sounds easy, but it's really hard to do.
We're pushing down the fake news, we're demoting it, and we are increasing the authoritative news and promoting it.
How do we do that?
We have a whole system.
We came up with trashy news where we have build classifiers, we identify it, we look for salacious, for clickbait, content that we don't think is...
You know, the authoritative news, it's just kind of encouraging people to look at, but it's not true.
We're training, we added these instructions to our readers, and we've updated our classifiers, and we are working to understand, identify that with machine learning, and then to push that down.
And then we're increasing our authoritative news.
We're doing that with things like a breaking news shelf.
We're triggering it in the U.S., in France, in the U.K., and more countries coming soon, where we have sources that come from reputable sources.
We work with Google News on that to define what those reputable sources are.
It triggered last week in the London Bridge attacks.
It's also going to trigger on search.
When you type in something, you're looking for a news event, you're going to see news there.
We're also working with a lot more news publishers.
News publishers don't want to be in the technical business of running their own player.
We can do that for them.
And we also want to get more news players on the platform.
We have the goal of getting over 100 news providers on our platform this year.
This is a good place to segue into talking about getting your take on what's going to happen with these big tech companies and YouTube and the rest when you think about what you just saw with the New York Times coming out in the Hunter Biden laptop story.
Because it kind of goes right into this.
They told us that was fake news.
So obviously Wojcicki and her team were actively suppressing it.
So now that we know it's real news, what happens?
Like, you know, for me, I'm pretty sure that I was kicked off YouTube on October 15, 2020, two weeks before the election because of the Hunter Biden laptop because I reported on it.
My question is, are we going to get our channels back or are they going to de-rank all the news organizations that reported this and said it was real?
I mean, I know that's not going to happen, but what do you think, as a person who used to work there realistically, is going to come out of all this?
Look, it's a small club and we ain't in it.
And this whole YouTube, you know, thing is essentially a psyop, right?
Like, get everyone on board and then lock it down and then kick everyone else off that they don't want after it's already big.
And now it's like, oh, you know, well, screw you.
We'll just go to Rumble or Bitch Shoot.
And it turns out that people aren't there yet.
Yeah, the audience is not there.
I mean, it's growing.
I can see the numbers.
It's great.
It's awesome.
I mean, it's way better than it was last year.
And next year will be even better.
But you're never going to get your channel back on YouTube.
That's my opinion.
I think that this is a one-way street where they're just going to get more authoritarian.
And the reason why they want to get more authoritarian, in my personal opinion, is because...
Look, they've got a plan for the world, which is that they're going to run it with the robots and people are going to transition from productive members of society to essentially a welfare state.
If we don't fight back.
They want us on drugs.
They want us on vaccines.
They want us sick.
They want us on welfare.
And they want to disable us and scramble our minds with disinformation.
And pretty much the only way that we can fight back is by leveraging the power of free expression enshrined in the First Amendment of the Constitution.
And if we can leverage that free market competitiveness, then we can Give a penalty to YouTube.
They've got a board that's making decisions.
If the consequence of censorship is that everyone goes on to their competitor, they're going to think twice about that censorship.
But if we don't have that alternative, that release valve for people to go, that people are going to stay in that container and they're just going to censor what they have to say and they're not going to inform their users on what's really happening because they're going to be so deathly afraid of losing their coveted channel that they've been spending like a decade or more that people are going to stay in that container and they're just going to censor what they
Well, that's exactly what I see right now is that you look at YouTube and it's just become this platform full of people self-censoring.
They're literally afraid to say anything remotely close to the truth because they know they'll lose their monetization, they'll lose their income, they'll lose their platform, they'll lose their reach.
I did.
I went through it.
Man, I'll tell you, it's one of those things where when you have a big audience and then you go to nothing, it's very humbling.
I mean, in a way, I always think back and I think they did me the biggest favor they ever could have because literally, like you said, it made me detach myself from their products and their services so that I could start building something more for me and not for them.
So in a way, I guess they're shooting themselves in the foot here, but I don't know.
Yeah, go on.
I'm sorry I didn't mean to interrupt you.
I mean, it's totally true, right?
Like, it's a humbling experience.
And the way that other content creators were able to survive is they just shut the heck up.
Right?
Like Jimmy Dore.
He's like, I'm not going to get into the election thing.
He just doesn't want to get in there because he knows that as soon as he touches it, it's going to be the third rail he's going to get kicked off.
Tim Poole goes and he actually talks about it openly.
He's like, YouTube says I can say this, but I can't say this.
And I can say this in this context, but I can't say that in this context.
And it's like...
Wait, why is YouTube telling you what to do?
This would be a good transition into Section 230.
How does that not make them editorializing their content?
What do you think, Zach?
I think it's totally editorializing.
They've got pure immunity from being able to be sued.
We've been trying to challenge that, and there's still an ongoing case with that with the Punch Google, now under a different name and under Sarah's management.
But the problem is that we have to abide by their jurisdictional requirements to sue these tech companies within the state of California in a very rigged court system that has been, you know, It has a lot of judges that have been placed there by the Obama administration and other big state actors.
And also, I see what's happening with our case, for instance, the Punch Google case.
We're trying to get whatever going.
It's like...
We're working inside their system.
So just to get to the federal courts, to get to the Supreme Court costs so much money.
It costs like a million dollars probably to get all the way there.
So they know that they have this, not only do they have the protection with the immunity built in, but then, like you said, it's basically the court system is never going to be favorable to people who are challenging them because...
Let's be honest, you know, who benefits, you know, these judges, they know what the difference is between Google and some random YouTubers who want their panel back and who they're going to probably side with in that one.
The team of lawyers or the, you know, ragtag bunch of people like us trying to, you know...
David and Goliath.
And enforcement's a nightmare.
Think about it like this.
If you've got a bank and the bank is making illegal loans, you can always just raid the bank with the FBI, pull the papers that are human-readable from their filing cabinets, and then make copies of them and then present them in a court of law.
But compare that with the technological behemoths that we have right now with Google and Twitter.
Let's say there was an FBI raid.
They would go, let's get all the paperwork.
And then they're like, okay, what's the password?
That's the first thing they would ask for.
And Twitter doesn't want to give the government access to anything that is internal to their servers.
Let me ask you, in this kind of speculative, like you worked at YouTube, I feel like there's somebody at YouTube, maybe Wojcicki or someone else, who you walk in, the FBI comes in, they're like, where's all the paperwork?
And they just hit Control-Shift-Alt-7-5, and everything's deleted, right?
What do you think?
No, not possible.
They just keep too many backups everywhere.
Off-site backups, on-site backups, replicators, everything.
They've got it.
It's all somewhere.
If they wanted to comply, they can certainly comply.
The problem is that even if you win on the merits of the case, getting the court to force Google to do anything or Twitter is going to be a really hard slog and take years and millions of dollars to do.
I didn't realize all this.
I just wanted to get you guys all back on the internet with a temporary restraining order before the November 4th election because they didn't want the election to be rigged by Google, but I wasn't able to do that.
And so I was like, oh shoot, well, what do I do now?
And blast.video was the solution because I was like, well, the courts don't want to interfere with these tech companies, but they also don't want to interfere with a small tech company, right?
Because Google's going to be like, oh, we don't like them competing, right?
The court's like, well, what are you going to do about it?
Like, what do you want us to do about it?
Right?
Like...
It's pretty much the courts are keeping a hands-off position on a lot of this technology.
And you're seeing that, right?
Like, you've got Getter launching, Gab.
And no matter how much media has been putting a spotlight on Give, Send, Go or Gab, they're still operating.
They haven't been taken down.
They haven't been, you know, receiving...
How long do you think before that happens, they start just taking sites down, like, just disappearing and saying, you can't host, your DNS is not welcome here?
I think it's going to happen the next six months, honestly.
I think it's going to happen during the midterms.
The GOP currently holds around a 3% lead in the generic ballot across the United States.
Hispanics, Asians, everyone's moving over to them because everyone's trying to see the lies of this establishment and everything's becoming so ridiculous right now that people are like, yeah, okay, there's a New World Order agenda.
They're trying to push it in and people don't like it.
They don't like the trans movement.
They don't like the wars.
They don't like Any of the things that the establishment represents and they don't like the current thing, like whatever the current thing is, right?
Like they had the vaccines and the vaccine was like the current thing.
And then like magic, right?
They took down COVID and they replaced it with let's all get together and hate Russia together, PSYOP. And that's what we're currently in.
And if you're not with the current thing, then you're a bad person.
Yeah.
Wait, hold on.
Did you change your profile picture of the Ukraine flag?
Because I'm going to have to end this interview if you did.
No, I didn't.
No, no.
I'm kidding.
But yeah, no, you're right.
You're right, dude.
Think about it.
It's Ukraine now.
Oh, we have to go save Ukraine.
Everybody to Ukraine.
The battle to save Ukraine's territorial sovereignty as our borders being invaded.
It's like none of it makes sense.
But somebody made a good point.
I talked about this yesterday.
I saw social media posts about it.
They were saying that This is happening with the fake news, and I can see this happening with other things, too.
It's like wrestling.
Remember when WCW and WWE, everybody knew it was fake, but they didn't admit it was fake?
Yeah.
And then when they admitted it was fake, everybody was like, okay, it's fake, but I still watch it, and they still were packing stadiums, and people were still there, and I feel that that's the danger that we're going to see with news, because they're going to be like, oh, yeah, you know, I know the New York Times lied to me about everything, but But, you know, I guess I like my Sunday crossword puzzle.
What can I say?
You know what I mean?
Like, that's where I think we're headed, right?
Well, yeah, I think it is.
I list the people.
Well, like, look, if you're living in the Soviet Russia, you're going to pick up a newspaper called Pravda and you're going to read it, even though that you know that it's full of lies.
It still has information content because it represents the position of the establishment.
And that's essentially what people are doing now with The New York Times.
I mean, most people know that it's full of lies, but it's valuable because it gives clues on, you know, what the wind is going to blow in the United States political situation.
Well, and I always say, you know, I tell people this all the time.
I go, well, if you really want to know what's going on in the world, just watch any fake news channel or pick up any fake news newspaper like New York Times.
And basically, you can pretty much depend on the opposite of whatever they're saying being true.
Yeah, exactly.
So I guess there is value in that.
Yeah, there is value.
I mean, it's propaganda, but it's still information, even if it's disinfo.
And so...
I think that's where we're headed for.
But the thing is, is that if middle America doesn't see or have access to a different opinion than what the establishment pushes out there, then they're really at a disadvantage, right?
Because like, oh, well, I guess I'm just alone in thinking this way.
And what we want to let them know is that, look...
If you think that a man is a man and a woman is a woman and that a trans woman shouldn't be allowed to compete in sports, thus dominating the competition, then guess what?
You're not alone.
You're actually part of the normal set of people that Of middle America.
And this is what I'm trying to do with Blast.Video is that if we can expose normal people to the true thinking of common Americans, then what's going to happen is that we're going to have an expansion of ideas.
And that's what we need.
That's what made America strong.
Like when America was doing their experiments in freedom, you had Europe murdering each other.
Within the Napoleonic Wars and all this other stuff, assassinating their leaders, staging revolutions.
And that's all the things that's going to happen to America if we allow this establishment, this European establishment, to sort of muscle in and take over and shut down our avenues of public discourse.
Well, and you know, that brings up a good point.
It reminds me, when you did your work with Project Veritas and you exposed so much, which, by the way, cannot thank you enough for that.
That was so brave and it helped us out big time.
I mean, no matter what, at least it got some of the truth out.
I remember that in the documents, I think these were the documents that you brought.
It might have been somebody else, but I think it was you, where you actually had inside the documents, it said...
Like, we're weighing U.S. free speech versus European free speech and a free expression because free expression means we can silence people to make sure that everybody feels comfortable to talk.
But free speech means you can talk.
Basically, everybody can talk.
And they were like, they had the seesaw thing.
And they're like, well, we tend to side more with the free expression idea.
And then shortly thereafter, of course, you know what happened.
We all got, you know, booted and kicked off.
Yeah, I know.
It's weird how the terms of free expression sort of get redefined so that they can do their totalitarian ways.
All of this stuff that's happening right now with the disconnection of Russia from the global network, that's probably being driven by the diversity, equity, and inclusion group.
Which, you know, it's kind of funny that, you know, the name that they give themselves is the exact opposite of what they're going to end up doing, right?
Well, don't forget, this is what they all do.
It's the most insidious thing.
It's like Black Lives Matter.
It's like, okay, to name an organization Black Lives Matter is inferring that if you're not in favor of it, you don't think Black Lives Matter, which is like so devious and so deceptive.
And this is what they do.
But yeah, go on.
It's exactly like that.
Yeah, it's exactly like that, right?
It's the exact opposite of what it is that they're going to do.
They use the name as a psychological tool of warfare to warp people's minds.
They wouldn't actually go and have the group that's responsible for the destruction be named the opposite of their destruction.
Or Antifa?
We're anti-fascists.
No, you guys are actually fascists trying to bring in a fascist revolution.
The problem is that the people that they're fighting against...
I mean, they're claiming that Trump is fascist.
It's like, I'm sorry, but to be a fascist, you have to control the means of production.
And the fifth column...
You've got to remember, they don't believe in definitions.
They just make things up as...
Whatever.
It's all subjective and relative to their ideology.
It's ever-changing.
It's fluid, like their gender.
Right.
Exactly.
So, you know, this is the reason why, like, right now we need freedom of speech preserved more than any point in history because, let's just be honest, people like you are changing the world because we're decentralizing...
Sense-making from decentralized bureaucratic authorities, which it's kind of been that way for the last hundred years, to this like, you know, essentially, if I don't like what you're saying, Craig, I can go on your channel and I can say, you're totally stupid and wrong, X, Y, and Z. Wait, hold on.
I get that every day.
Yeah.
It happens.
That's why social media is so addicting is because it's like the creation of the printing press.
It's a completely different modality of communication.
And it's decentralizing that communication away from the centralized state, bringing it to the people.
And what happened...
And this is the reason why I joined YouTube in 2016 was because I wanted to be part of that revolution.
I thought YouTube did too.
It turns out that they didn't, that that was actually a contradiction in the system.
And rather than let that sort of blossom into the flower of the next civilization, instead they decided that they were just going to take you guys all out and boost up CNN because they want to maintain the post-World War II, uh what's it called breckenwood's uh you know world order which is what you know is playing out right now in ukraine and so i'm not familiar with that can you uh let us record words it's i may be getting it wrong but after world war ii
the united states came and said hey we're gonna like kind of take over militarily with nato um and so uh you know essentially that world order is China's breaking away from them and saying, hey, we're not going to allow you to subvert our country.
I don't like the Chinese Communist Party, but I think that it's less bad if the Chinese Communist Party breaks off from the globalist Communist Party, because at least they're fighting each other, rather than cooperating to destroy humanity and bring a totalitarian world government.
My only fear is that what's happening right now in China is more overly that these globalist cartel, whatever, this order that came with NATO and the rest.
I think it's like generationally wealthy aristocracy from Europe and other generationally wealthy families that amass huge amounts of wealth and have used it over time to control.
So I fear that those people are...
They want that command-control authoritarian communist dictatorship.
So the implosion of Europe and the United States must happen.
It must happen in order to put China as the top dog.
Once China's the top dog, they move everything into business through these vassal countries like Ukraine or whatever, Switzerland or whatever they'd use.
And then they'll basically just pour that money and influence into the country.
But then it's tough because the Communist Party steals all the means of production and so on.
I also want to bring up another point which you should consider is that, you know, so if we take as fact that there's a form of white supremacy that is entrained within globalism, right?
It's a certain type of white supremacy.
And the difference is that we can't really tell who they are.
They look very similar to people that aren't part of this hierarchy.
But in China, you're definitely going to tell the difference.
Like, okay, this is someone from China, and this is someone that's a foreigner.
And you can't mix them.
It's really hard.
And so I think that one of the big overtures to China...
They want to coddle them because they anticipate that if China ever wants to break free, it's going to be really easy to break away from the globalists.
You just kill everyone that's not a nationalist Chinese person.
That's it.
People don't know this, but it's true that the Chinese in general and their society in a lot of ways are very racist.
They have this Han supremacy.
Han Chinese supremacy.
They believe in The Han Chinese are the superior to all the other races in the world.
And I don't know if it's necessarily that they are outwardly trying to...
But it's definitely in the subcontext and in a lot of ways it is a part of their society.
So it's funny how they always make fun of us.
They say white supremacy, white supremacy.
And you're like, well...
It's pretty racist over there.
Try being an African-American or an African in China.
I've heard horror stories.
I've heard horror stories.
People have talked about how it's almost impossible to live there.
You're constantly hounded.
You're detained without cause all the time.
But again, I do think that part of the...
Globalist cartel, whatever they are, whoever they are, they want the command-control authoritarian, communist system globally.
So they have to implode these sovereign nations like the United States.
That's why they're gutting the United States right now as we speak.
I mean, Joe Biden didn't win the election.
And if you say that, it's like, oh man, you must be a crazy conspiracy.
But I'm sorry to cut you off.
Go on.
I think it's interesting because they're like, oh, the election wasn't rigged.
And it's just like, as the Google whistleblower, it's like the election was rigged In many, many different ways, right?
There was the Hunter Biden laptop.
You know better than anyone how they rigged it.
You know what they did with the search algorithms.
Yeah.
I mean, go through a few things.
Like the whole voting finasco with the mail-in ballots and the 4 a.m.
ballot drops.
That's just one of many different ways in which they rigged the 2020 election.
Like if this election was free and fair, then Donald Trump would have been kicked off all these social media platforms.
If it was free and fair, then the news articles, when they started to weaponize against the president, would have been downranked because it would have been like, oh, well, this is just a bunch of disinformation pushing a political agenda.
Let's derank them.
That would have been fair.
But instead, what they did is they purged all the people that were conservative and nationalist and pro-American, and they kept anyone standing who wouldn't toe that line or shut up or was.
you know, pro-globalist and pro-Biden and All this other stuff.
And they boosted content that was complete lies and fabrications and misinformation that you could clearly have seen at the time.
That's my biggest problem.
People go, oh man, they're a free company.
They can do what they want.
I'm like, no, no, no, no, no.
They don't have the right to rig our election.
They don't have the right to use their platform that's become ubiquitous for basically anything digital to affect such a huge change.
But then we sit there and it's like, Oh, we're the bad guy because we, you know, I don't know.
What do you think, Zach?
I mean, it's a long game.
They're playing a long game.
We need to also play a long game, which is the reason why, you know, I've created this Blast.video.
It's because free speech is actually really easy.
It's the default.
It actually takes effort to eliminate free speech.
And I'd like to show this video that I've made about Blast.Video.
I think that you'll like it.
It's my launch video.
Blast.Video uncancels America.
Hi there.
My name is Zach Voorhees.
You may know me as the Google whistleblower.
And I think it's safe to say I hate censorship more than anyone else that I know.
And that's the reason why I created Blast.video, a new type of social media system called an aggregator.
And the way that it cracks through censorship is that it scans open video platforms like Rumble, like BitChute, like Brighteon, like GabTV, and looks for new content by the content creators that you love.
It takes those new videos that it finds.
It brings it under one single website called Blast.Video where it serves it to you. All
We feature independent creators like
Tim Poole, Anomaly, The Quartering, Black Conservative Patriot, Health Ranger Reports, Matt Walsh, PragerU, Red Pill 78, Sarah Westall, SGT Reports.
We scan a total of 250 content creators across platforms every single hour for fresh videos.
It's like censorship never even happened to the conservative community.
And I'm looking for your help to make Blast.video that number one spot in America for conservative news.
The reason is because I want to create a better future.
Future.
Future.
In the future, there is no censorship of humans thanks to Blast, Blast.video.
And now I'm going to use this time machine to go back to the present.
And it looks like Blast.video couldn't come soon enough.
So you may be asking yourself, when does Blast.Video launch?
And I've got great news.
If all goes well, Blast.Video will launch in 10 seconds.
Nine, eight, seven, six.
Blast off.
Blast.video!
No censorship of humans!
And you know, it's like, that's, you know, when I see that video, it's like, that's the kind of person I want running my website.
I don't know why.
You just, you strike me as like, you're the guy I want doing the thing.
You know what I mean?
Because it's like, it's just real, man.
You're like, I don't want to censor people.
I love America.
I love free speech.
Let's do it.
Like, what else is there?
Yeah.
Right?
I mean, do you want some shadowy figure from China running your social media platform, or do you want a patriotic American that wants to do the right thing?
And, you know, looking at this, I realized that there was a big demand for someone that's trustworthy to come out and organize the world's information and make it universally accessible.
And so, you know, blast.video is...
My solution to the censorship problem.
And if people are like, you know, why doesn't anyone just fix the problem?
Well, here you are.
I'm fixing the problem.
And if you agree with that, and you believe in what I'm trying to do, and you believe in Free Speech for America, then I want you to come to give, send, go slash blastvideo.com.
It's right up here.
I don't know if you can see that.
So give, send, go.
Blast video.
And we're recording this before we launch, but the goal is $125,000.
That's going to keep this thing funded throughout the year.
And it's going to keep us funded throughout the next election cycle.
And if we raise more than that, then we're going to add a whole bunch of features to become a real platform.
So that's what I'm asking for you.
I built this for you guys.
I didn't try to get money or raise money before I built it.
I actually built it first and said, you know, if you guys like this and you want me to continue, then help me hit my funding goal and keep this alternative platform for at least another year.
And if it's really popular and it takes off, then let's You know, challenge the big players and become the dominant pro-American video sharing platform host.
And the reason why I think that I can do this is because I realized that both the content creator, the advertiser, and the customer are being shafted by the current system that YouTube has.
Like, they're stealing a lot of your money.
What I've realized is that if I can make the experience between the advertiser, the content creator, and the audience member as frictionless as possible and as easy to use and intuitive, I think that the technology will just win over all these other platforms.
YouTube sensors, Rumble's a mess, so is BitChute.
Obviously, they're more advanced than where I am right now, but going forward, my grand vision for this is to have a decentralized video system that aggregates content from around the internet, becomes eventually a video host myself, and we're going to be able to...
You know, solve this problem of content that wants to be free.
Look, Napster came and was able to transform the music industry.
And that content was illegal.
The content today in 2022, like the content that you released, Craig, it wants to be shared.
People want to get it out there so that they can get their message across to their community.
We have to make the platforms that will replace these platforms that are censored and that are controlled.
Because if we don't, then we're just going to end up spinning our wheels.
We're not going anywhere.
That's why I think people should go support your giftsandgo.com slash blastvideo.com.
Go there.
Make a donation.
Once that's live, keep that going.
You guys have helped support this channel and keep it alive through all the censorship.
I mean, I had to do the same thing as Zach.
I had to put a bunch of money down.
I basically spent my whole life savings, you know, funding this operation, building it out, getting all the equipment, building a studio, doing all the things.
Because I knew that, you know, not only is there, like you said, a desire for the content, but also there's a void.
And we have to be the ones that step up to the plate.
That's why, you know, all my audience, you guys out there, I know you guys support me.
And if you want to support a patriot trying to do a great thing, check out this gifts and going and go support Zach, you know, in whatever he's doing.
Because I think he's doing things that are ultimately going to help humanity out, as opposed to what the globalist cartels who run Silicon Valley are doing, which is enslaving humanity.
So it's like you can pick.
You can have it your way.
You can either stay on YouTube.
And choose enslavement of humanity, right?
Or you can go and support people like Zach, myself, and others, and choose to support humanity and freedom and free speech.
That's the way I see it.
What do you think?
I mean, that's kind of the way I see it.
That's great.
My only ideology is that you should have the freedom to express yourself.
I don't know whether socialism or capitalism or technocracy or whatever is going to be the best way forward.
That's up to you, Americans, to figure out.
And all I want to do is I want to create that public discourse that allows us to discuss the relevant ideas that are coming forth in this new age.
And we can't shy away from this responsibility.
This is the greatest responsibility that we as a collective group have to rise up and face the challenges.
What does identity mean in the online era?
What do rights mean in the era of total surveillance?
How do we express ourselves?
All these important decisions, like how much do we want to integrate with technology?
What kind of education do we want to collectively provide for our children?
Which topics are right, which ones are not?
We need the public square to be able to come to a consensus on what is best for America.
And that's what I set out to do.
It's been a hard slog.
Like I was not a web programmer.
I was a C++ embedded programmer.
So I had to learn all this stuff new, you know, essentially like learn to code.
But your freedom is so important that that wasn't even a barrier.
I just spent time every single hour to learn how to do it.
And here we are.
We've got blast.video.
And if you want your freedom preserved, then join the fight to protect your rights online.
All right.
Well, thank you, Zach.
I know we're coming up on a pretty hard deadline.
You're going to have to jump off and get on something else, I'm sure.
You're a very busy man.
I appreciate you taking the time.
Someone's going to look at the room.
I've got a room available in my place, but they're not coming here yet, so we can go ahead and finish.
Let me know whenever you've got to get up.
So, you know, look, when you go to like blast.video, you're supporting freedom, you're supporting what it means to actually, you know, to take away this control and power that the big tech companies have taken from us.
And I see that as being far more important than, you know...
Because I guess it's all kind of intertwined, right?
The content and the platforms are all just as important.
But here we are at this point in time, Zach, where you have done this great project.
We're really thankful to have you a part of this effort to get free speech going again in this country digitally.
What is your prediction for everything upcoming as we get closer to the midterms?
I know I always like to ask that question because people have different takes and I always enjoy hearing what other people think the big tech companies are going to do as far as We talked about DNS. They'll be taking websites down like that.
What else do you see coming down the pipeline?
How are they going to contain the Biden laptop story even further?
How are they going to contain all the information to keep the voters unable to be aware of what's going on?
This is my prediction.
Could be wrong.
It's just a wild guess.
I think that they're going to use the Russian war as an excuse to take down Trump supporters this time.
I think we're going to see a huge push for censorship that's going to happen during the midterms.
My guess would be two to three weeks before the elections start happening across the country, you're going to see a huge purge.
That's just going off the basic strategy that they used in October of 2020.
And I think that the tools they're going to use to be able to leverage that are going to widen, right?
Like before we had Google saying, you can't be on YouTube.
Now we're going to be like, Google's going to be like, oh, you can't visit this website.
They're going to use their browser-based censorship.
So it's, you know, forget Google Analytics.
So you mean like you open up Google Chrome or something and then you type in like justinformednews.com and it just says this site is in violation of information policy or something, right?
Yeah, like it's Russian disinformation, blah, blah, blah.
You won't be able to access it.
I put the label on it.
So it's like, you know how they do that where you go to the site and it's like, warning, this site has dangerous things and da-da-da.
And then it's like, you have to find this little link to be able to get through it.
Yeah.
They're going to put that warning label.
That's how I believe they're going to operate is they're going to say, oh, this site's known to be unsafe and Russian disinformation.
And they'll...
Either one of two things.
Either make it harder, but still allow you to go click through and visit the website.
And if that's not effective, they'll just say it's been blocked on the Chrome browser, and then you'll have to switch to the Brave browser or Firefox.
My suspicion is that Firefox will fall online and follow the block lists.
In fact, according to Robert Epstein, the block lists are actually internally shared between the two companies.
So if Google puts you on the block list and that block list is going to migrate automatically to the Firefox.
So we're going to look at Edge, which is essentially Chrome repackaged, Firefox and the Chrome browser.
All three of them are going to engage in the same censorship of websites, probably happening in the middle of October of 2022.
Since you're kind of an insider on all this, you know a lot of the inside baseball to everything going on in Silicon Valley, more than I would at least.
So, you know, Brave.
I love Brave.
I did well with Brave, you know, promoting it and all that.
My question is this.
I know Brave's out of San Francisco.
What's your take on them?
Great.
Guys, freaking solid.
They'll have to get rid of them before they subvert it.
Yeah.
Can you hold on a second?
There's a roommate or a potential new roommate.
Hi there.
This is Zach.
All right, folks.
So Zach's on the phone right now and he is currently going to be disgusting.
Okay.
I was going to wrap up this podcast.
Or yeah, we'll wrap it up, I guess.
All right.
All right.
Sounds good.
I'll be down there in a couple minutes.
Unfortunately, I have to go here pretty soon.
Last question.
No more questions.
I just want to say this.
If you don't mind, I want to take a second and I want to say a prayer with you for your new platform and let's pray for it going in the future.
Do you mind?
Let's do it.
All right, here.
Dear Lord and Heavenly Father, please be with Zach in all his work.
Put your hands on him and protect his work so that it honors you, but it helps promote the freedom that we all need in this world so that we can have the freedom to openly worship and come to you, Lord.
So I hope all of our audience joins us in saying a prayer for Zach.
And Lord, just be with him and help him make this work.
And thank you for everything in Jesus' name.
Amen.
All right.
Amen.
Hey, all I can say is, man, you're one of my people I look at, and I'm just always so impressed.
So God bless you, man.
I pray for you.
I hope it all goes well.
I'll use Blast.
I'll promote it.
I'll do it all because I believe in it, and I believe in you.
So thank you for coming on and joining me on the show.
You're my first guest on the new Just Informed Talk relaunched podcast.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much, Craig, for having me on the show.
And keep doing what you're doing.
You're changing the world for the better.
Thank you, Zach.
