As requested by listener Jan, Dan tells Jordan all about what happens on the June 29th 2015 episode of The Alex Jones Show. Topics include: Are people trying to ban the American Flag? Does Jordan almost get seduced to the Dark Side? Do our hosts achieve the show's first spit take? Is it ever not racist to compare people to dog breeds?

Hello, Alex. | |
| I'm a first-time caller. | ||
| I'm a huge fan. | ||
| I love your work. | ||
| I love you. | ||
| Hey, everybody. | ||
| Hello. | ||
| Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. | ||
| I'm Dan. | ||
| I'm Jordan. | ||
| We're a couple of dudes who like to sit around and drink wine. | ||
| Red wine in specific, because that one time we tried white wine, you went all wacky. | ||
| Never again on the white wine, to quote Elie Wiesel. | ||
| That's what he was talking about. | ||
| Nope, nope. | ||
| That's what he was talking about. | ||
| We're already done here. | ||
| White wine. | ||
| Cancel it. | ||
| Play the outro. | ||
| We're a couple dudes who like to drink red wine. | ||
| This is the fastest we've bailed on an episode. | ||
| Secretly, I was drinking white wine before you got here. | ||
| You son of a bitch! | ||
| That's why that opening was so off the rails. | ||
| Please promise! | ||
| We like to sit around, drink red wine, and discuss. | ||
| You said that four times. | ||
| I'm going to see how many times I can get you to say that. | ||
| We like to talk about Alex Jones. | ||
| We do like to talk about Alex Jones. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We do. | |
| But I will posit you this. | ||
| What would be more interesting? | ||
| Two guys who both know a lot about Alex Jones and just kind of have a back and forth. | ||
| No. | ||
| Already, no. | ||
| No? | ||
| Your answer's no? | ||
| That would be not interesting. | ||
| How about if they were both white dudes? | ||
| I'm listening. | ||
| No, or... | ||
| I like a second option. | ||
| Or one of us, and it doesn't really matter which one, but probably the guy with the deep and comforting baritone. | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| Guy with the cross eye and a beard. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| What if he knew a lot, but our co-host, man, he just doesn't know nothing. | ||
| I think that that would only work if the co-host was shocked by everything and screamed a lot. | ||
| That's the only way that would work. | ||
| Do you mean a ball filled with joy and rage of equal intensity? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Someone who's perhaps bipolar. | ||
| Let's fast track this thing. | ||
| And we have already spent 25 minutes on our intro. | ||
| Oh boy. | ||
| So anyway guys, what we like to do is every episode we sit down and we talk about a day in the life of Alex Jones. | ||
| But today is going to be slightly different and we'll get to... | ||
| from Monday's episode that is incredibly important. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There is no joking around about this. | |
| Oh, God damn it. | ||
| This is super, super duper serious. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is from Monday, May 1st's episode. | |
| Alex Jones is having an interview with Steve Pachenik. | ||
| Now, Steve Pachenik, for reasons that are completely unknown to me, is in front of What appears to be a diagram of all the genres of hip-hop. | ||
| I will post a picture on Twitter. | ||
| That makes perfect sense! | ||
| No! | ||
| What else would Steve Pachanek be diagramming on a whiteboard? | ||
| Steve Pachanek, the man of the counter-coup. | ||
| Like, he is a military strategist, psychologist for the CIA in the past, in front of a board of trap, crunk, turntablism. | ||
| I have no idea what's going on. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| That is irrelevant. | ||
| Pause it. | ||
| Pause it theory. | ||
| Either he wandered into the writer's room in VH1 in 1994. | ||
| Could be. | ||
| It's Ed Lover's bedroom. | ||
| Or he is diagramming that for the CIA? | ||
| Or for J. Edgar Hoover in the 70s? | ||
| I could give a very simple explanation that I think might be right. | ||
| But I hope it's not. | ||
| They have all these theories about how hip-hop was made to, like... | ||
| Popularized criminality in the black community and stuff like that. | ||
| Oh, God, no. | ||
| I could see it being something like that. | ||
| But even if that's the case, wild. | ||
| Wild that he's sitting in front of this chart. | ||
| He's still sitting in front of it. | ||
| He could have just moved it. | ||
| But while he's doing this interview in front of this chart, Alex says something that I think he's going to very seriously regret saying. | ||
| Oh, he has got so many different things to regret right now. | ||
| On the level of, uh, I miss my dog, Nonk. | ||
| That's way at the bottom. | ||
| The key to understanding him. | ||
| That's way at the bottom. | ||
| Right. | ||
| A little higher than that is, I'm gonna kick your ass, Adam Schiff, you pack of pussies. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Fill your hand. | ||
| A little higher than that is, I put a bunch of people into a coma. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| No, I think that's actually below Adam Schiff's stuff. | ||
| But then, you've got the guy who owns Chobani as importing rapists. | ||
| I think this one's higher. | ||
| Holy shit! | ||
| Now, it might not be legally actionable, but I think he's gonna regret this more. | ||
| Let me just give people some good news. | ||
| I don't want to give sources out, obviously, but let's just say this. | ||
| I know Mike Cernovich's sources. | ||
| The government knows his sources, so it's not a secret to them, but it's obviously who's been retweeting him and saying he's a great guy and retweeting our stuff. | ||
| There are people very close to the president who are for real. | ||
| Hell, it's not a secret. | ||
| It's his sons. | ||
| Especially Donald Jr. | ||
| He's a total patriot. | ||
| And there's a bunch of other people. | ||
| So Trump is for real, but he's being pulled by every side. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh-oh. | |
| That wasn't a secret? | ||
| To whom was that not a secret? | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| He just said, I'll tell you, it's not a secret. | ||
| No one knew that! | ||
| It's not a secret to the government, apparently. | ||
| But that's a bigger problem! | ||
| He should not be revealing this information! | ||
| That's why this is a huge fucking problem. | ||
| Whether it's true or not. | ||
| All of the illegals. | ||
| All of the illegals things that you can do. | ||
| Well, here's the part that's even more fucked up. | ||
| It barely plays on audio, but you can go back and listen to it and you can go find the clip. | ||
| And Steve Pachenik's response is, right. | ||
| He agrees as if he knows that Trump's kids are the sources for Mike Cernovich's... | ||
| Deceit-filled propaganda articles. | ||
| Now, there's two things that are going on here. | ||
| Okay, there's two paths that are possible, and one of them goes down two side paths also. | ||
| Gotcha. | ||
| So we can go down the path of this Alex telling the truth here. | ||
| And if he's telling the truth, that's super fucked up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Again, illegal. | ||
| If he's not telling the truth, and he's just making this up out of whole cloth, he's fucked. | ||
| Like, Donald Trump is never going to talk to him again. | ||
| Any sources that he does have, he's burned. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, of course. | |
| Because they're never going to talk to him again. | ||
| He's just outed a source on TV. | ||
| No sources should ever talk to him again. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| I mean, we're pretty clear most of his sources are fake to begin with. | ||
| But any real source is going to hear that and be like, I don't know if I can trust his discretion. | ||
| His confidentiality means nothing. | ||
| He just, on air, indicated that the children of the sitting president are leaking information to a right-wing propagandist. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Which means that they have information to leak, which again, illegal. | ||
| Very illegal. | ||
| Super illegal. | ||
| Now we go back to the first path. | ||
| If Alex is telling the truth, he has burned Cernovich. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Because now Cernovich's source is outed. | ||
| Trump's kids are never going to be giving him information ever again. | ||
| You would hope. | ||
| Now, you are forgetting the staggering incompetence and stupidity of all of these people all at the same time. | ||
| That's a fair point. | ||
| But I think this is one of the most fucked up things I've heard on this show, and I've listened to a lot of it. | ||
| Yeah, that's... | ||
| I don't think I've ever fully witnessed someone out a source. | ||
| I've never seen a journalist do it in real time so flippantly, too. | ||
| Amazing, just as it's a throwaway. | ||
| Yeah, I'll tell you my sources. | ||
| It's not really a secret. | ||
| It's Donald Trump's sons. | ||
| It's Donald Jr. especially. | ||
| He's a patriot. | ||
| What the fuck are you doing? | ||
| Yeah, no, that's bananas. | ||
| That's... | ||
| Crazy. | ||
| For someone who claims to... | ||
| How is that not picked up? | ||
| Everyone should know this right now! | ||
| I'll tell you what, it's picked up on, like, Reddit. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| Our main man, Far Out, sent me a picture. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fuck yeah. | |
| A screenshot from the Donald. | ||
| And they'd pick this up, and they're like, God damn it! | ||
| Now Cernovich's not gonna get any more stories! | ||
| Which is kind of fair! | ||
| Even the idiots on Reddit are smart enough for this shit! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly! | |
| Even they can A to B this thing. | ||
| They can war games what happens when you burn a source. | ||
| Yes, but we've already established that war games-ing things is not his strong suit. | ||
| No. | ||
| So that's insane. | ||
| I mean, he's losing it. | ||
| But since he's losing it in the present, maybe it's time for us to escape the present, Jordan. | ||
| Maybe it's time for us... | ||
| To take a little trip down memory lane. | ||
| But before we do that, I need to do a little shout-out. | ||
| I'd like to thank our man Jan out in Germany. | ||
| What's up, Jan? | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you, Jan. | ||
| Thank you very much, Jan. | ||
| Thanks for donating. | ||
| You're a policy wonk. | ||
| And a long-time supporter, Jan. | ||
| He's a good dude, and he suggested, insisted, he took us up on our offer, is more what I should say. | ||
| We offered on our last episode that if people donated $10 a month or more, that we would take a day in history. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And go back to what Alex Jones was doing on that day. | ||
| Oh, thank God. | ||
| So Jan sent me a couple dates. | ||
| The first date he sent me was the date of the first nuclear test by North Korea. | ||
| Oh! | ||
| Which was in 2006. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And unfortunately, my archives don't go back that far. | ||
| So I could not find that episode. | ||
| So I asked for a backup date, and he sent me June 4th, 2015. | ||
| What was June 4th, 2015? | ||
| Wreck your brain. | ||
| What do you think was going on then? | ||
| You're a man of letters. | ||
| 2015, I am a man of letters, but not of numbers. | ||
| 2015, Obama was still president. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| June 4th, 2015. | ||
| Trump wasn't even really running at that point. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| Not in earnest, anyway. | ||
| Did we blow something up? | ||
| We didn't. | ||
| Let me see if this out-of-context drop from June 20... | ||
| June 4th. | ||
| This is in June 2015. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Being right more than other people is a conspiracy theorist. | ||
| That's what being a conspiracy theorist is, being right all the time. | ||
| Here's the deal. | ||
| It was when gay marriage passed in the Supreme Court. | ||
| No shit! | ||
| Oh, so this is going to be a fucking disaster then. | ||
| See, that's what was expected when Jan made this suggestion. | ||
| And here's the deal. | ||
| The actual court decision was on the 26th. | ||
| Unfortunately, I think it was the 25th. | ||
| Alex Jones is in studio on the 24th. | ||
| And he doesn't talk about the gay marriage Supreme Court case. | ||
| At all. | ||
| This is going to be another Y2K episode, isn't it? | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| So he doesn't talk about it on the 24th, so I'm like, that's not fair. | ||
| The subject matter that was requested was the Supreme Court case. | ||
| I'm going to go to the next day. | ||
| On the 25th, when the court ruling did come down, Alex Jones is in Michigan for his cousin's wedding. | ||
| That son of a bitch! | ||
| David Knight is in studio. | ||
| That double son of a bitch! | ||
| He is mad. | ||
| But it's mostly a states' rights issue. | ||
| Oh, fuck that! | ||
| So I'm like, alright, Sunday episode, Alex will be back because the 25th was a Friday. | ||
| I'm like, alright, Sunday, 28th, it's going down. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| Get nothing from him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Get nothing. | ||
| David Knight's still in studio. | ||
| So we have to go to the next episode where Alex Jones is actually on, which is June 29th of 2015. | ||
| Now you might be asking yourself, does he go apeshit about gay marriage? | ||
| So here's my theory. | ||
| He does not go apeshit. | ||
| He spends all of his time trying to straddle the line between like, hey, who cares what you do in your bedroom? | ||
| It's none of my business. | ||
| But at the same time, he's trying to be like... | ||
| I just think that it shouldn't be the government who tells you what you can do in your bedroom. | ||
| I think it's... | ||
|
unidentified
|
I sucked a dick before. | |
| I think that might be it. | ||
| I think that's a pretty reasonable guess. | ||
| Yeah? | ||
| Let's find out. | ||
| Here's the first clip from the show. | ||
| This is a little special report that Alex throws it to. | ||
| He thinks it's a John Bowne special report. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| Wait, so... | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And you're going to witness... | ||
| Like, right out of the gate. | ||
| Minute one of the Alex Jones show from June 29th, 2015. | ||
| Something that is out of bounds. | ||
| Like, from the jump. | ||
| And I'll explain when we get back. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It was the top big link on Drudge Report today. | ||
| Americans signed a petition to ban the American flag. | ||
| Now we'll get back to that. | ||
| How is that not big enough? | ||
| We'll get back to that. | ||
| That's a narrative that's going to come back, but we've got to get to the special report. | ||
| And it's no joke. | ||
| I first said that a few weeks ago. | ||
| Limbaugh and others made the point, and Farrakhan obviously called for it last week, which is kind of reasonable in a way. | ||
| I mean, the American flag has had more slaves under it than the Confederate, if you go by that benchmark. | ||
| The Greece collapse is now admittedly happening, and Jim Rogers, one of the top analysts, says he ain't seen nothing yet. | ||
| We're going to get into that. | ||
| We're going to get into huge news. | ||
| On the Second Amendment front and so much more. | ||
| Very important broadcast. | ||
| Huge news on ISIS. | ||
| They're saying no one could see these attacks coming. | ||
| Really? | ||
| We've only perseverated on it for four years. | ||
| Warning of the so-called rebels blowing back on the West by design. | ||
| It's all coming up today. | ||
| But first, the Pope comes out hardcore against the Second Amendment and for world government. | ||
| John Bound reports. | ||
| Joe Biggs here with Infowars.com. | ||
| Now, this week, the Pope decided to go full retard when he released a statement saying that gun manufacturers are not Christians. | ||
| Well, I find that extremely funny to hear that coming from the Pope because here at Infowars.com, we do have a Christian-owned gun manufacturer as a sponsor, Head Down Rifles. | ||
| Now, their CEO and co-founder, David Hunsucker, released a statement where he was just completely in shock. | ||
|
unidentified
|
By the fact that the Pope would release such a statement. | |
| So him saying bad things about the Pope isn't really what is out of bounds? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| I do think it's funny to think that the Pope, who lives in Italy, is bound by the Second Amendment. | ||
| I think that's absurd. | ||
| I think that's obvious. | ||
| Isn't that the Second World Amendment? | ||
| Didn't that happen? | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| The thing that's way out of line is the idea that Joe Biggs made a special report to cuck out the Pope. | ||
| On behalf of a sponsor. | ||
| That is... | ||
| I was a little bit more concerned about the reference to... | ||
| What's it called? | ||
| The R's? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| The full R? | ||
| No, from that movie. | ||
| The full R? | ||
| Oh, the blackface one of Downey Jr. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Thunder. | ||
| Tropic Thunder. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah, Tropic Thunder, I almost said. | ||
| Great. | ||
| You thought that was the problem? | ||
| I don't... | ||
| I don't appreciate that when that's used in a pejorative manner towards anybody. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Like, the whole joke of that is that it is exploitative, the very act of doing that. | ||
| So, in Tropic Funder... | ||
| You did it again. | ||
| I want to go to a themed restaurant called Tropic Funder. | ||
| Let's build it. | ||
| We're going to do that. | ||
| If we build it, they'll come. | ||
| Another idea... | ||
| That will never happen. | ||
| No, the joke is that actors are exploiting that in order to get Oscars, and so what you're winding up doing is using that phrase in order to kind of reveal the hypocrisy and stupidity of it. | ||
| Well, when people like Joe Biggs use it, they reveal their own stupidity. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| He's trying to use it in as mean a way as you possibly can. | ||
| Also, if you're a Christian-owned... | ||
| Gun manufacturer? | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| You do not understand a lot of Christ. | ||
| No, and I pulled up the Pope's... | ||
| Head-down rifles? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oof. | |
| Wow. | ||
| I don't know what that means. | ||
| Well, I mean, you gotta put your head down. | ||
| Keep your head down and murder. | ||
| So, I looked into this, and the Pope gave a speech that they were talking about, and I hear some quotes from it. | ||
| If you only trust men, you have lost. | ||
| He told the young people in a long rambling talk about war, trust, and politics after putting aside his prepared address. | ||
| It makes me think of people, managers, businessmen who call themselves Christian, and they manufacture weapons. | ||
| He's right on it, man! | ||
| That leads to a bit of a distrust, doesn't it? | ||
| He said to applause. | ||
| He also criticized those who invest in weapons industries, saying, quote, duplicity is the currency of today. | ||
| They say one thing and do another. | ||
| Which I think are pretty fair assessments. | ||
| That's straight up popin'. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| This is cool pope, right? | ||
| This isn't Nazi pope. | ||
| This is globalist pope. | ||
| Yeah, not Nazi pope. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, I mean, like, sure, take the pope out of context, cuck him out on behalf of your sponsor. | ||
| You're basically starting the show with an ad where you're committing... | ||
| It's not blasphemy because he's not God. | ||
| No. | ||
| He is the mouthpiece of God, though. | ||
| You're just pissing on the pope for ads. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's a... | |
| That's a plug. | ||
| That's one of my favorite things about the whole Pope thing now is mainstream Christians are mad at the Pope every now and again and then super happy with him. | ||
| The cognitive dissonance of religion is mind-boggling. | ||
| Certainly. | ||
| The fact that you could take that fairly innocuous statement of like, hey, if you're investing in guns... | ||
| Guns are used to kill people, so you're investing, you're profiting off the death of human beings. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's what you're doing. | ||
| And, I mean, if you really get it down to it, Joe Biggs goes on to be like, you know, people use weapons to, you know, use guns to hunt and feed their families. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| But the amount of money that's made from that kind of weapons versus the weapons of killing industry, it's staggering. | ||
| Like, it's almost nothing comparatively. | ||
| So if you want to make that argument, please debate the Pope, Joe Biggs. | ||
| Go fucking have a conversation with him about your principled gun stances. | ||
| I don't think Biggs is getting... | ||
| Frankly, I don't even think Jason Biggs is getting near to the Pope. | ||
| Well, now... | ||
| I mean, we've already seen... | ||
| Joe Biggs is basically gone now in modern day. | ||
| So we already have a blast from the past. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So I'm going to break it down for you. | ||
| Break it down! | ||
| This episode from 2015 is globalist heavy. | ||
| Good! | ||
| I'm looking forward to some classic Alex Jones being wacky with no one paying attention, really. | ||
| I don't know how wacky it is. | ||
| It's unadvised at certain points, certainly. | ||
| The main narrative that runs throughout basically this entire episode is Greece. | ||
| The Greece financial crisis that was going on in 2015. | ||
| Do you mean the one caused by banks exploiting their economy and essentially tricking them and then forcing them to accept austerity measures for their own mistakes? | ||
| And you have just made the globalist argument. | ||
| Oh, goddammit! | ||
|
unidentified
|
No! | |
| I might be a globalist. | ||
| Or at least you might believe in the globalists. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If you think big banks are bad... | |
| Oh, you might be a globalist. | ||
| His version of it is far more sinister than just capitalism out of control. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| His version of it we'll get to. | ||
| This first clip here, now that we're out of the advertisement section, is a little bit about how the globalists are trying to... | ||
| He hasn't quite gotten into Greece yet at this point, but that will take up most of our time. | ||
| At this point, he's just trying to spell out how evil the globalists are. | ||
| And now we know the origin of his hatred for Chobani. | ||
| Oh, it could be. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| The connection. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| This is just about how globalists are evil and they're trying to change society. | ||
| They've taken over almost every government and almost every bank. | ||
| Now they're going to take over the individual and the family. | ||
| Now the real drilling in is commencing. | ||
| All hell is going to be breaking loose. | ||
| The enemy is assaulting on every front. | ||
| Making more and more outrageous announcements to move the Overton window. | ||
| And if you don't know what that is, it's a political science term coined in the middle of the last century of how political elites only operate within what is seen as acceptable within the political paradigm, within the establishment middle of the road. | ||
| But that they will have radicals out on the edge making announcements that sound over the top to make their announcements That are slightly out of the Overton window, not sound as radical. | ||
| I think he has just described himself. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| That's exactly what he just did right there. | ||
| There is nothing in the world that is more pushing what is decent than Alex Jones. | ||
| Yeah, of course! | ||
| He is so, like... | ||
| Because he is so crazy, the idea of Republicans taking everybody's health care away and yet at the same time acting as though that's giving them personal freedom is reasonable compared to globalists are coming after the individual. | ||
| And then the family, which is a very strange order to take on those two things. | ||
| Listen, you get to tasks however you get to them. | ||
| Yeah, that's a good point. | ||
| I think that just kind of subconsciously shows what he thinks is more important. | ||
| Well, but also, it's like, he sits on air all day and is like, Hillary Clinton is literally a demon. | ||
| Like, if you want to talk about pushing discourse in a certain direction, you've introduced the idea that demons are real and that they influence our politicians. | ||
| Now, before you introduce this idea into our discourse, we just had to talk about ideas and disagreeing with them. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You've thrown that out the window, and now anybody could be possessed. | ||
| So that, your Overton window is way over here. | ||
| Way over here. | ||
| It's very easy to demonize your opponent when you just go literal with demonize. | ||
| You know, you're like, oh, his ideas are bad. | ||
| Nuh-uh. | ||
| Smells like fire and fucking brimstone. | ||
| Did you ever notice that a fly landed on Obama? | ||
| Flies never land on people. | ||
| That makes sense. | ||
| Alex has an example of them pushing the Overton window that I think is less relevant than him in terms of actually doing it. | ||
| But we'll see. | ||
| So that you will accept what they're doing by increment because their vanguard is so far out having Jocelyn Elders 23 years ago Surgeon General nominee calling for the school to help children ages 5 masturbate. | ||
| In 1994, that sounded insane. | ||
| Today, it's standard. | ||

I don't know how to masturbate. | |
| No, I want that on my goddamn wall. | ||
| That's pretty good. | ||
| Quote. | ||
| We need schools to help five-year-olds masturbate. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Jocelyn Elders, Surgeon General nominee. | ||
| For those young 'uns out there who weren't around, Jocelyn Elders was the Surgeon General in the Clinton years for a bit, and then she got fired after this. | ||
| She, in 1994, was invited to speak at a United Nations conference on AIDS. | ||
| She was asked by someone there whether it would be appropriate. | ||
| To promote masturbation as a means of preventing young people from engaging in riskier forms of sexual activity. | ||
| And she replied, quote, I think that it is part of human sexuality and perhaps it should be taught. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Yeah, I don't think that's... | ||
| I genuinely do not see a negative to that. | ||
| I honestly, even in 1994, I was 10. I did not see a controversial thing there. | ||
| That makes perfect sense. | ||
| I don't think my parents saw that as controversial. | ||
| I don't think there's anything Overton window-y about it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Now, the only things that you can take away from that is that Alex Jones does not think that people should be masturbating. | ||
| Possibly. | ||
| Well, he doesn't think five-year-olds should be masturbating. | ||
| Hey, neither does Jocelyn Elders. | ||
| That's not what she said. | ||
| Did you ask her? | ||
| I didn't. | ||
| I wasn't at the UN when I was ten. | ||
| See, there you go. | ||
| But she ended up getting fired. | ||
| Because she wanted people to masturbate? | ||
| Something they've been doing. | ||
| Forever? | ||
| White House Chief of Staff Leon Panetta remarked about the firing. | ||
| Quote, there have been too many areas where the president does not agree with her views. | ||
| This is just one too many. | ||
| So they sort of copped out a little bit. | ||
| Masturbation is one too many. | ||
| God, they did not see internet porn coming. | ||
| They had no fucking clue what was about to come down. | ||
| Or the next few years of Clinton's life. | ||
| He didn't masturbate. | ||
| Fair enough. | ||
| So he is already in two clips, which again is maybe within the first couple minutes of the show, completely misrepresented what the Pope said in order to plug one of his sponsors. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| As God intended. | ||
| And completely misrepresented something that Jocelyn Elders said 20 fucking years ago in order to make his argument about the Overton window, which he is way more guilty of. | ||
| I love that his first example is... | ||
| 23 years ago, a surgeon general said maybe if people masturbated and that was okay, they would be less likely to commit sexual assault. | ||
| That's not even what she was talking about. | ||
| Isn't that the question that she was responding to? | ||
| She was talking about kids and young people engaging in risky forms of sexual activity. | ||
| Oh, not even assault or anything like that. | ||
| No, it's about avoiding diseases and shit like that. | ||
| If you masturbate, it's completely safe. | ||
| That sort of thing. | ||
| I mean, it depends on where you are. | ||
| And, well, that's a good point. | ||
| Don't do it in a car. | ||
| I had a friend get in trouble. | ||
| Can't say his name. | ||
| While driving? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, boy. | ||
| I mean, that's even a Mike Birbiglia joke. | ||
| Perhaps, like, her response was even, perhaps it should be taught. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's not even saying, I think this should be. | ||
| It's like, eh, you know, maybe. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Maybe kids should know. | ||
| We teach them how to put a condom on a banana. | ||
| Why not teach them how to unskin that banana? | ||
| I would certainly have been less likely to be ashamed and miserable every time I masturbated if somebody was like, hey, this is okay. | ||
| It's normal human behavior that everybody does. | ||
| Like, have you ever gone to the zoo? | ||
| Chances are you're going to see a monkey masturbate. | ||
| That's going to happen. | ||
| Yeah, they don't teach that in the kind of cults that we grew up in. | ||
| No. | ||
| Although monkeys don't teach each other how to masturbate either, so perhaps she's wrong there. | ||
| They do at age five. | ||
| Do they? | ||
| They do. | ||
| I've gone to zoos. | ||
| Yeah, but they mature faster than us. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| So this next clip is Alex just blowing hard, man. | ||
| Just blowing hard. | ||
| Just, I am the best. | ||
| God, he should learn how to masturbate. | ||
| You just want to know, like, how is he so accurate? | ||
| How is Alex Jones never wrong? | ||
| Donald Trump's sons? | ||
| It's all there! | ||
| How do I continually know what they're going to do next, day in, day out, week in, week out, month in, month out, year in, year out, decade in, decade out? | ||
| Blood in, blood out. | ||
| Because they've told us what they're going to do, and they've done it over and over again in third world and old world countries that they had control of, so we know the exact formulae that they will slightly tweak with their anthropologist and sociologist and behaviorist. | ||
| For the particular country that they launch. | ||
| We know the enemy profile. | ||
| We know their modus operandi. | ||
| We have assessed them. | ||
| And you would think it's a weakness that they're so predictable, but see, their response is, hey, the public isn't even conscious. | ||
| So what if you're awake? | ||
| So what if you're aware? | ||
| It's like being one awake person at a sports stadium of lobotomized children. | ||
| You can't even communicate with them. | ||
| You can't get them out of the tranche. | ||
| They don't even know what you're talking about. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Pause. | ||
| Pause. | ||
| I just kept that pause in there for the long sigh at the end. | ||
| There's a couple things that are important to note there. | ||
| One of them is that he does not speak in any specifics about his information that he has. | ||
| He just... | ||
| Just proclaims that he's always right, when if you really look into it, he's wrong about almost everything. | ||
| He's absolutely just, his facts are shoddy, he just has assertions that he never backs up ever. | ||
| There's so much documentation of shit he's predicted that he's wrong about. | ||
| But the other thing is this idea that he comes to at the end, where he's like, everyone's dumb, and you can't even communicate with them. | ||
| And there's two things I want to speculate about there. | ||
| One... | ||
| Is that because he has a very specific mental illness, he can't talk to other people. | ||
| He seems crazy. | ||
| Whenever anyone else is talking to him, he can't communicate because he just starts rambling about globalists and international forces and vague references to documents and scientists he may or may not have talked to. | ||
| Who may or may not be real. | ||
| And everyone's like, I can't follow you. | ||
| Even the most generous of interviewer, he's going to yell at them. | ||
| It's impossible for him to interact with anybody on a human level. | ||
| I've seen him with his co-hosts and stuff. | ||
| It's even mildly abusive. | ||
| So I think there's some of that. | ||
| He's projecting shit a little bit. | ||
| And then beyond that, that is also a mentality that is espoused in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. | ||
| This idea that most of the masses are dumb and the globalists are trying to make them dumb in order to make them malleable. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Like, if you can only trust your cult leader to be the one who's telling you the truth, then that forces you to put everybody else outside. | ||
| True. | ||
| So he is isolating his listeners in the same way that he's isolated. | ||
| Yes, yes. | ||
| How he's isolated from everybody else, they can only have him. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| As a conduit to truth. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah, that is true. | ||
| That's a bummer. | ||
| But the good news is... | ||
| What's the good news? | ||
| Alex is also a specialist in a bunch of things. | ||
| Alex is an expert on certain matters. | ||
| Especially policy. | ||
| ISIS. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| He's a big specialist on ISIS. | ||
| All right. | ||
| And he's going to walk you through how evil Muslims are in this next clip. | ||
| Not ISIS. | ||
| All Muslims. | ||
| It starts with ISIS. | ||
| Yeah, and then it spirals out of control very quickly. | ||
| It's generalized way too fast, and then this is the first of two times he gets into really spotty animal metaphors that I don't think are appropriate, that are very not good. | ||
| I analyze the new Al-Qaeda and the new Syrian state they were building. | ||
| In the last four or five years, giving Libya as a base to take down Africa to Al-Qaeda, giving Syria part of it as a base to take down the Middle East. | ||
| Western government's all financing it. | ||
| We laid out exactly four years ago, exactly three years ago, exactly two years ago, exactly one year ago, exactly a month ago, over and over again, ad nauseum, that ISIS is a real terror threat, a multi-hundred-thousand-person army recruited and funded by the West. | ||
| With useful idiot bots who actually think they're fighting for, quote, Islam. | ||
| He has said that over and over again. | ||
| He's not wrong about... | ||
| He's not wrong about Al-Qaeda being funded by Western sources. | ||
| At one point. | ||
| At one point. | ||
| Syria is definitely being funded by Western governments. | ||
| Fuck, we're doing most of it. | ||
| And then you have, you know... | ||
| Muslims and Islam. | ||
| Right, but ISIS itself isn't created by us, except in a tertiary sense. | ||
| Yeah, it's not funded by us, but it's definitely created by us. | ||
| The instances where there are things that we have supplied that have gone back to them, pretty accidental. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| In the same way that, you know, you give somebody shit and someone takes it. | ||
| Mm-hmm. | ||
| That does happen. | ||
| Well, like how we sent a billion dollars in cash or whatever it was and that magically disappeared in Iraq. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| There's a lot of questions there. | ||
| There were a lot of questions there. | ||
| What are you doing sending that much cash? | ||
| Why are you sending cash? | ||
| That seems weird. | ||
| Very weird. | ||
| What can you buy with cash in a failed state that's falling apart? | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| I'm starting to think maybe it was funneled to other people. | ||
| It's possible. | ||
| It could be. | ||
| It's possible. | ||
| But anyway, he goes on. | ||
| That are going to be allowed to attack the entire Western world and the Middle East. | ||
| They're meant to take over and conquer the Middle East and much of Africa as a proxy front for the globalists under Saudi Arabia and Turkey's control. | ||
| Here, they're going to attack, be repulsed and defeated, but that'll be used for the next decade of expanded police state. | ||
| Oh! | ||
| Alex now says the Muslim threat's real, even though he said for all these years it was synthetic. | ||
| It was always real, but it was manufactured. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you mean synthetic? | |
| Now it's not manufactured. | ||
| It's bred in a pen and turned loose. | ||
| Like I said, if I go to my neighbor and put three rattlesnakes in his bed, I didn't bite my neighbor, but I'm an accomplice to it. | ||
| I put the rattlesnakes in the bed. | ||
| No, you're not an accomplice. | ||
| You're a murderer. | ||
| If I go dump a hundred black widows in your bed... | ||
| And you go and get in there. | ||
| I don't control the black widows. | ||
| I just know what they're going to do. | ||
| Where did you find a hundred black widows? | ||
| If I put you in a pen with 15 starving wolves. | ||
| I don't run the wolves. | ||
| They'd bite my hand too, but I control the environment and the paradigm. | ||
| Why do you need another example? | ||
| Totally. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Comedy comes in threes, but that's just... | |
| Three examples of the same exact thing. | ||
| It's a little excessive. | ||
| It's ridiculous. | ||
| Rhetorically unnecessary. | ||
| If I put 10 million ladybugs in there, yeah, they're not going to bite you, but you'll probably suffocate. | ||
| You're not going to like this. | ||
| He does another hour of just examples of ways he could accidentally kill you. | ||
| But the argument that he's making there, I don't think that this is the way he would make it, but there is a way to make it reasonably. | ||
| And that is that our foreign policy is so fucked up that we keep creating terrorists through bombing churches, through starving children, through killing civilians. | ||
| And that is creating more and more people who do want to hurt us. | ||
| I think that what he's saying is different. | ||
| I don't know what he's saying. | ||
| Well, okay. | ||
| I don't think it's that, though. | ||
| Now, here is the interesting thing about that, though, is that, cynically, I do have that inclination to agree with that idea of... | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| What if you dig Alex Jones in 2015? | ||
| Maybe I do! | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
| Maybe... | ||
| So, if I was going to conspiracy theorize... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| ...as an... | ||
| I think he's not terribly wrong. | ||
| I just think he's ascribing competence to people who just are incapable of thinking ahead. | ||
| Or, you know, just the law of unintended consequences. | ||
| Or even the potential bad consequences are outweighed by whatever immediate gain you're trying to make. | ||
| Yeah, like the terrorism thing is absolutely being used to expand the police state. | ||
| Like, there's no other way to describe what's going on there. | ||
| Now, is that because there's a globalist plot, or is it because all of our weapons went over to Iraq and we don't need them anymore, and we spent a shit ton of money on it, so we want to get some of that money back, so we sell it to police stations. | ||
| They need all of those weapons. | ||
| I think that is definitely the sort of economic version, or the economic explanation for the militarization of some of the police forces. | ||
| But I don't think that terrorism necessarily is creating that trend of militarized police. | ||
| I think it's the fake fear of terrorism that's actually not created as much by the globalists as it is by people like Alex Jones. | ||
| Yeah, exactly! | ||
| Ironically... | ||
| Of course you're giving away your rights! | ||
| You need to protect yourself against ISIS. | ||
| You need a strong government with a strong military. | ||
| Now, obviously, you don't want that government to have control over, I don't know, providing people with basic health care. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| You want them to be able to fight ISIS, a paramilitary force that has a.0001.8% chance. | ||
| I put another decimal in there. | ||
| I like it. | ||
| To actually harm you. | ||
| But then it also... | ||
| He's trying to have it both ways with that argument. | ||
| I think you nailed it. | ||
| We want this strong government, but they're not strong. | ||
| Stay out of our business. | ||
| Take away our rights, but don't give us anything. | ||
| I'm sick of having stuff from you. | ||
| I don't want to be dependent on the government. | ||
| Now, admittedly, I have a syndicated radio show that I make millions of dollars off of, and plenty of people are poor, like in Flint, Michigan, where they don't even have fucking regular drinking water, and we still haven't done a goddamn thing about that, even though we've known about it since 2015! | ||
| And he hasn't mentioned that. | ||
| Nor the gay marriage thing. | ||
| But also, I mean, like... | ||
| He makes money off of people buying guns from a Christian gunmaker. | ||
| That is interesting. | ||
| Where are we? | ||
| What are we doing? | ||
| What are you talking about, Alex? | ||
| What is going on? | ||
| Anyway, I think you're right. | ||
| This sort of area, there's a little bit more interesting gray area. | ||
| I still disagree with Alex, and I think he's full of shit. | ||
| I disagree with him, too, but it is enticing. | ||
| Because that way it sounds like... | ||
| Oh, so you're smelling the trap a little more. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It sounds like, man, at least then I could say that people in the government are smart enough to pull this shit off. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| At least we elected people who aren't borderline just moronic. | ||
| Well, that's kind of the charm of 9-11 conspiracies, too. | ||
| Yeah, well, that's true. | ||
| Anyway, Alex wants you to know. | ||
| But he's got great information. | ||
| The charm of 9-11. | ||
| Oh, 9-11 conspiracies. | ||
| Oh, hello. | ||
| How are you today? | ||
| You look marvelous. | ||
| You are a delight. | ||
| So this next clip, Alex accidentally says something that makes him think twice a little bit. | ||
| Never seen that before. | ||
| He's talking about how his information is rock solid. | ||
| He gets good information, but then he starts to talk about instances where, in the past, where... | ||
| Other people's information has had disinformation in it. | ||
| And I think there's a moment you can see in his face where he's kind of like, eh, boy. | ||
| Shouldn't have brought this up. | ||
| Then he gets a little defensive and throws to break. | ||
| Now, how did I know this 20 years ago? | ||
| Because I read Barry Goldwater's book. | ||
| He was in the meetings. | ||
| He exposed it. | ||
| I read the statements of David Rockefeller. | ||
| It's all planned. | ||
| I read the opposition to it, and I read the people that were for it. | ||
| If I was in a war, which I am, I would read the enemy's own documents. | ||
| They're so arrogant, their battle plans are public. | ||
| And they don't give us their battle plans because they're fake to throw us off, or there's disinfo in them, like the British, with their ultra system, let the Germans know. | ||
| No, it's beyond that. | ||
| They are so arrogant, they are operating uncloaked, attacking us at point-blank range. | ||
| It feels like somebody is trying to throw him to break. | ||
| The world is defenseless against the next financial crisis. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Shut up! | |
| Shut up! | ||
| This is back when he maybe couldn't skip as many breaks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Before that Mercer money came in. | ||
| Right. | ||
| As I suspect. | ||
| But yeah, this is another idea that he has that's based on sort of Illuminati beliefs. | ||
| This idea of like sort of externalizing the program. | ||
| You've got to show people what you're doing in order for it to mean anything. | ||
| A lot of times when he talks about these Illuminati rituals that they do at the halftime shows and stuff, it's called lesser magic. | ||
| Whenever you... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Eyebrow raise? | |
| Lesser magic? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's this idea of... | ||
| It even extends to putting something that the globalists are going to do into a science fiction movie. | ||
| So it like... | ||
| It gets people used to the idea. | ||
| That predictive programming. | ||
| Yeah, that's all part of this lesser magic game that the globalists play in order to do things in plain sight. | ||
| And then putting out all their white papers that say these things that Alex thinks they say but they don't is another part of that. | ||
| Which again feeds into that little bit of that schizophrenia. | ||
| Which is like why they had Pullman become president in Independence Day so he'd be prepared. | ||
| For him to become president in real life. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| That makes perfect sense to me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh-huh. | |
| Who else would be a better president? | ||
| Paxton. | ||
| Wait, we lost him. | ||
| No, we lost Paxton. | ||
| Shit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| All right. | ||
| This next clip, Alex gets super condescending about how you need to wake the fuck up. | ||
| I do. | ||
| I'm really tired. | ||
| I'm going to say this very, very slowly for new listeners. | ||
| I don't mean this in a condescending way, but... | ||
| The denial has to end right now. | ||
| You can go to Google and type IMF World Bank documents leaked 2002. | ||
| The BBC covered part of them. | ||
| Then they told Greg Palast, we're going to fire you if you do any more pieces on this, basically. | ||
| He got pulled back from former top. | ||
| So also keep in mind there that he said basically. | ||
| That's a qualifying word. | ||
| It is. | ||
| It is. | ||
| We say it a lot. | ||
| Basically, we do. | ||
| But whenever you're not making a real assertion, you say stuff like, well, kind of, basically. | ||
| He's like, I got pulled back from it by the BBC, basically. | ||
| Did he get fired or pulled back? | ||
| Nope, he was a freelancer. | ||
| Federal fraud investigator that went to work for the BBC. | ||
| And in it, the IMF and World Bank were planning the takedown of the West. | ||
| Next, they'd already taken over the third world, Latin America, Africa, and much of Asia through fraud. | ||
| And it talked about how they would then depress economies, have the country sign on to debt, do bailout after bailout that actually puts the countries in debt to the megabanks when the companies themselves are being bailed out by the countries. | ||
| And the public is so illiterate, is the proper word, Total illiteracy when it comes to basic financial systems. | ||
| But even when you tune into CNBC, that's all within the paradigm of the controlled economic order. | ||
| So that itself is not how it really operates. | ||
| What are you saying? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| What is he trying to say? | ||
| I don't know what that part at the end there is. | ||
| I don't... | ||
| He just undoes every single thing he was saying up to that point. | ||
| He's like, but then there's another paradigm, and that's not really even how the world works. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| What are you doing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Which, but he, I mean, the big banks did... | |
| Pull that shit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And they did. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| They did cause them to get a whole shit ton of debt, and then the banks themselves were bailed out by the people. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| This is true! | ||
| Predatory capitalism. | ||
| Why didn't he just stop there? | ||
| Because it's not enough to sell your fucking huckstery goods. | ||
| I think it is. | ||
| Wait, no, it's not enough to sell huckstery goods. | ||
| I think it's enough for me to want... | ||
| Just fires. | ||
| Just fires all over the place. | ||
| Well, that's actually part of the IMS plan. | ||
| To burn? | ||
| To burn. | ||
| Riots come at the end, and then when you're burning down cities, the globalist banks can come in and buy everything up for super cheap. | ||
| No, but I want to burn down the globalist banks. | ||
| Let's get them. | ||
| No, but here's the thing. | ||
| So I did Google this, that Alex Jones condescendingly told me to two years ago. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| I Googled this, and I looked for IMF leaks 2002. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| And I found an article. | ||
| In The Guardian by Greg Palast. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Which was not in the BBC. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| He does an interview with a guy who used to work for the IMF and got fired. | ||
| Very ugly firing. | ||
| Unceremoniously. | ||
| And he had some really terrible things to say about the IMF and how they operate. | ||
| I think a lot of it is spiritually fairly accurate. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Stuff about, like, you know, like you were saying. | ||
| Getting countries to borrow more than they should, and when they can't, they default on their loans. | ||
| But you buy up their water plants and stuff like that. | ||
| And then you can just basically fuck over a country. | ||
| But there's nothing in there... | ||
| The way that... | ||
| Just the American way. | ||
| There's nothing in his article, and there are no leaks that are out anywhere. | ||
| I couldn't find any... | ||
| Primary documents. | ||
| It was just a guy who got fired. | ||
| Right. | ||
| They reference documents in that article, but they aren't anywhere. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| They aren't public. | ||
| Right. | ||
| They never got put out or whatever. | ||
| Maybe they are in some weird part of the dark web that I'm not going to go to, but they're not. | ||
| Get it to our browser. | ||
| I'm not going to do that. | ||
| So, nowhere in any of it has anything to do about trying to collapse... | ||
| Entire regions of the world. | ||
| There's nothing in there like an evil plan that the West is next. | ||
| All this stuff is fantasies from Alex's brain, which is the basically that I was talking about earlier. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, right, right. | |
| That's the part where he can't stop at the truth. | ||
| He's got to guild that shit. | ||
| And that's where it becomes a lie, and it becomes propaganda, serving his globalist, one-world government boner. | ||
| That he has in his paranoia brain. | ||
| The interesting thing about this is that it seems like in 2015, he was far more interested in the kernel of truth that leads to the lie. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| As opposed to now, where it seems like he's divorced himself from reality entirely. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Kernel of truth, fuck that. | ||
| Popcorn of lies. | ||
| That's what I want. | ||
| I don't start at the beginning. | ||
| I explode with bullshit. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| Given to me by Trump's... | ||
| Kids! | ||
| I told you. | ||
| Who are not supposed to have any contact with him in regards to business situations. | ||
| Or anyone in the government. | ||
| Or anyone! | ||
| But I told you before we started recording, we're going to see a pretty different Alex Jones on this show. | ||
| Like, he's still a liar, he's still a bullshit artist, he's still obsessed with the globalists. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| But this is a different dude. | ||
| I'm halfway charmed by this guy. | ||
| I'm not charmed. | ||
| But I do think... | ||
| Well, let me put it this way. | ||
| I'm much more willing to entertain this than I am, you know, it's going to be 1776 all over again. | ||
| He still thinks that, though, in his head at this point. | ||
| But there's a couple points that we're going to get to where I think you might... | ||
| We'll get current Alex Jones shining through. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But actually, here's a clip where he's very... | ||
| He would never say this today. | ||
| Do we get to add number three to things that we agree with Alex Jones on? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nope. | |
| I do not agree with this at all. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But he would be goddamned if he said this today. | |
| See if you can tell why. | ||
| I mean, the globalists, if you're, quote, state or your country doesn't pay a debt, they'll go in with sanctions and grab the assets overseas, like you're doing to Russia, and not over debts. | ||
| But because Russia is defending its population that's indigenous to eastern Ukraine and the Crimea. | ||
| Yeah, sure. | ||
| Again, not saying Russia is faultless, but they didn't start the war. | ||
| They didn't overthrow Ukraine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They sure did. | |
| Like George Soros, the same group of bankers. | ||
| And they're now having their assets all over the world seized. | ||
| Their companies shut down that Americans and Brits and Germans and other people work in. | ||
| Remember WikiLeaks? | ||
| They thought Assange was trying to fly into Germany and other countries? | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| And NATO would force Russian aircraft down to search them? | ||
| That's the New World Order, folks. | ||
| So there's nowhere to run. | ||
| And they bring down Russia and a few other countries. | ||
| Sure, you're jumping out of the fire into the frying pan, but the fire's going to get a lot hotter when there's no firewalls. | ||
| States are like firewalls or like bulkheads in a ship for water. | ||
| If you don't have them, one leak will bring you down. | ||
| God, I wish that were true. | ||
| Once there's global government, folks, there'll be nowhere to run. | ||
| And we know the people running this world government are the maximum alpha tyrants the world has ever seen. | ||
| Maximum alpha tyrants. | ||
| I can't think of anyone who that might apply to. | ||
| One dude. | ||
| Maximum... | ||
| Alpha Tyrant is the sort of linguistic version of three examples of animals in your bed. | ||
| Like, that's... | ||
| It's excessive. | ||
| We gotcha. | ||
| Well, I think that's a great beer, too, isn't it? | ||
| Oh, yeah, yeah. | ||
| It's a great IPA. | ||
| Ooh, so good. | ||
| The Bugs in Your Bed beer? | ||
| Bugs in Your Bed IPA? | ||
| Hundred Black Widows in Your Bed. | ||
| So, also, A, he would never say those things. | ||
| Like, he still says that George Soros is responsible for Ukraine. | ||
| The uprising in Ukraine. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Or, like, for overthrowing Ukraine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But suspiciously absent from his language pretty much since Donald Trump got around has been these positive things about Putin and about how the Russians were just protecting their people in the Ukraine. | ||
| Oh, absolutely. | ||
| In Crimea. | ||
| They were just going in there protecting people. | ||
| Yeah, they definitely don't have a maximum alpha tyrant. | ||
| No! | ||
| That would be insane. | ||
| Putin is just a protector. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| He just wants to kick the globalists out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely! | |
| He's not literally resembling a demon, as Alex said on the Y2K episode. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Crazy. | ||
| So crazy. | ||
| He's defending Russia. | ||
| He's gone so far back and forth on all of this shit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's... | |
| Like, I wonder if there is a step too far for him. | ||
| Is there anything that he will not switch on? | ||
| Globalists. | ||
| Yeah, but the definition of who is and isn't a globalist is always ever-changing. | ||
| You can be a globalist one day and a patriot the next. | ||
| Much like the bouncing back and forth on WikiLeaks that literally everyone is doing right now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Where it's like, ah, it was good when it was dead, and now it's bad whenever it's dead, and now it's good. | |
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
| No, I guess in that case, no. | ||
| There's nothing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Well, Second Amendment, maybe? | ||
| Uh, ooh, that is a good thing. | ||
| Because he did, also he didn't... | ||
| Not the Second Amendment, that is a bad thing. | ||
| He didn't always used to be so into God as he is now, so that's sort of even like a little waffly. | ||
| Although even then his... | ||
| He can't go back. | ||
| His belief in God is very nebulous as to what it is God wants or does not want. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| I mean, we're still... | ||
| It's an esoteric weird God, but... | ||
| Let's not forget the 12th dimensional beings that are out there. | ||
| You can go back on that one. | ||
| I think it might just be the Second Amendment. | ||
| Like, guns. | ||
| Guns might be the only thing he has. | ||
| Guns are it. | ||
| If he turned against guns, he would lose almost all of his audience. | ||
| Yeah, that's probably true. | ||
| Now, there's a lot of weird factions within his audience, but I think one of the biggest through lines is people who love guns. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| So... | ||
| Wait, what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ugh. | |
| Ugh. | ||
| But Russia was cool two years ago. | ||
| Russia's super cool. | ||
| So congratulations, Alex. | ||
| That's weird of you to think. | ||
| So this next clip, he's talking about Greece. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| He says so much shit about Greece, and it's all repetitious. | ||
| It's all just the globalists are planning to take them down, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| So it's not that the Greek people themselves are bad? | ||
| No. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Greek people themselves are great. | ||
| Oh, good! | ||
| Yeah, they're victims of this globalist system. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Well, I mean, maybe not the globalists. | ||
| I agree they are victims. | ||
| They're victims of this banking system. | ||
| That is true. | ||
| So, in this next clip, he's going to talk about how it's a bank holiday, and he goes on a real nice rant, real nice riff on the idea of a bank holiday, does a little bit of singing, and then... | ||
| Before we go any further. | ||
| Right. | ||
| What the fuck is he talking about with this Barry Goldwater and Rockefeller shit? | ||
| Who cares? | ||
|
unidentified
|
But where are these weird-ass references coming from? | |
| It's books he read and didn't understand years and years ago. | ||
| That's all that's going on. | ||
| I've learned not to chase these rabbits down the hole, because I have in the past gone down and read things that he's referenced, and consistently they don't say what he says. | ||
| So I'm not going to read a whole fucking book by Barry Goldwater. | ||
| I'm just not gonna do it. | ||
| I don't have time. | ||
| He had some good ideas. | ||
| I got a lot of Philip K. Dick to read, right? | ||
| Sorry. | ||
| I'm on to Voices from the Street. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ooh! | |
| It's his second novel, published in 2007, posthumously. | ||
| Way after the IMF leaks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So, Bank Holiday loses the thread. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Loses the thread, starts rambling. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And we'll get back and talk a little more about it. | ||
| Bank Holidays are good, though. | ||
| Not in this case. | ||
| Not in this case. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Greece closes banks ahead of referendum. | ||
| UPI. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, they're having a bank holiday. | |
| Jocelyn talks about a holiday. | ||
| It's not that normal holiday. | ||
| You're out water skiing. | ||
| Out having fun. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a holiday. | |
| It's a Patriot Act. | ||
| It's a new freedom initiative. | ||
| It's an Affordable Care Act that doubles and triples prices. | ||
| Smooth. | ||
| But it says affordable. | ||
| I'm convinced you can sell to Trendy's buckets of horse manure, tell them it's pumpkin pie, that had a Trendy on the front of it, or maybe a man in drag with a mustache. | ||
| That's the coolest thing. | ||
| And now you do that, it's over. | ||
| I don't know why that's the top Trendy thing for like 10 years in Austin, downspread worldwide, a guy in a dress with a mustache, but I guess Leslie is the global icon. | ||
| The Globals actually chose him. | ||
| They said, you. | ||
| Will be the example of everyone. | ||
| I had an office by Leslie's house. | ||
| Made a big living off of his professional homeless. | ||
| He died a few years ago. | ||
| I don't like to speak ill of the dead. | ||
| I'm kind of digressing, but... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, indeed you are, my friend. | |
| Anyways, the point is... | ||
| It's kind of like I know a celebrity. | ||
| Grease closes banks ahead of referendum. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Do you have any idea what he was talking about? | ||
| Well... | ||
| The reason Greece closed their banks ahead of the referendum was because they didn't know what the referendum was going to turn out. | ||
| There was a huge chance they would pull a 1929 and just take as much money out of the banks as possible. | ||
| Which we've all learned is bad. | ||
| It's a super bad thing. | ||
| Which is a natural human reaction to do, that you want to go grab your money, but if you do that, you're hurting everybody else and yourself. | ||
| Yeah, that causes rapid inflation and everybody goes fucking batshit. | ||
| So now it seems super evil for people to close banks, but it's actually in everyone's best interest. | ||
| It seems manipulative and like, hey, Right. | ||
| But also, my dad was in Greece during this time. | ||
| No shit! | ||
| Yeah, my dad goes to Greece a bit for, like, you know, scholastic endeavors and stuff. | ||
| He's a professor. | ||
| Does he also go on holiday? | ||
| He doesn't water ski. | ||
| He doesn't water ski? | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| He's a pretty boring guy. | ||
| He's super awesome. | ||
| What about wears a dress and mustache? | ||
| We'll get to that in a minute. | ||
| But he was over there during this period in 2015. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's pretty fascinating. | |
| I've talked to him about it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And, you know, the thing where if you were a foreigner, you could take money out. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So what he was doing, and a lot of people were doing, was that they were, since they had foreign bank accounts, they were taking out tons of money and helping people. | ||
| And so there was a bunch of resources on the ground, just independently, of the people who couldn't get money out of their own bank accounts. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Just, you know, very helpful. | ||
| Not always Americans, other European countries and stuff like that. | ||
| People helping people out. | ||
| Good people. | ||
| Yeah, there was a real nice grassroots thing going on there that I have no interest in hearing about. | ||
| No. | ||
| But even beyond that, I mean, closing the banks is the right thing to do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Bottom line. | ||
| Now, he goes on to say that you could say... | ||
| He makes a great point that bad things are named good things. | ||
| The Patriot Act is bad. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| And it's called the Patriot Act. | ||
| Yeah, it's newspeak. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It's Orwellian bullshit. | ||
| That good point lasts almost no time having good will. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| He then goes on to rant about men in dresses with mustaches. | ||
| Yeah, who's Leslie? | ||
| You don't know? | ||
| I don't know who Leslie is. | ||
| The globalists picked him to be the face of things. | ||
| I still don't know who that is. | ||
| I mean, obviously, I am not awake. | ||
| I'm going to tell you and the listeners who Leslie is. | ||
| But before I do... | ||
| Because he just used one name. | ||
| He didn't give a last name. | ||
| I'll tell you this. | ||
| I genuinely thought Leslie Nielsen for a second. | ||
| I'll tell you this. | ||
| I've met Leslie. | ||
| No shit! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But also, if you don't know who Leslie is, or you do, tweet at us. | ||
| I want to take a little poll. | ||
| Before I tell you who he is, go ahead and sound off. | ||
| Now I'll tell you. | ||
| Leslie was a homeless activist in Austin, Texas. | ||
| He was homeless for many years and was a huge advocate that headed up a lot of causes for homeless rights, police brutality rights, these sorts of things. | ||
| He's a good dude. | ||
| He also made a big spectacle out of himself. | ||
| He wore women's clothing. | ||
| He also was a cross-dresser. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| And would wear women's clothing around, like, 6th Street and go and hang around and get the word out. | ||
| He'd also like to party. | ||
| He'd party around, too. | ||
| That's how I ended up meeting him. | ||
| I was partying on 6th Street, and he came up, and he was super nice. | ||
| We smoked a cigarette, and we hugged. | ||
| There's a picture of us somewhere. | ||
| But anyway, he died. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's really cool. | |
| He died in 2012. | ||
| After he got the shit beat out of him in 2009, he was found unconscious outdoors and was transported to the University Medical Center in critical condition in 2009. | ||
| This is October 3, 2009. | ||
| Within two weeks, he had regained consciousness and was transferred to a rehabilitation center. | ||
| When he was released, on October 23, 2009, Cochran, that's his last name, reported that he had been attacked after commenting to a group of people about the dangers of drug abuse. | ||
| Which is reasonably responsible. | ||
| That's believable. | ||
| That's within the scope of his sort of type of activism and the like. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Also, not outside the spectrum of reality that he was beat up because he is an old cross-dresser. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| There's a possibility that these people beat him up for that after he said something about drug abuse. | ||
| He is in Texas? | ||
| Those people are there. | ||
| So he got the shit kicked out of him in 2009 and suffered head trauma. | ||
| Then three years later, two and a half years later, his health just deteriorated from there. | ||
| And he ended up trying to get some brain surgery. | ||
| And it was successful, but then he ended up dying after that of complications within a month. | ||
| So he's a very tragic story. | ||
| He is also a very empowering story of someone who did a lot with his life. | ||
| Made an impression on millions of people and helped with charitable causes that have helped tons and tons of people. | ||
| Fuck you for minimizing him in such a way to say that he's a trendy dress and a mustache, you piece of shit, Alex Jones. | ||
| So this dude was, like, to the point where, with all of his support, if he had asked for it, people would have made him not homeless. | ||
| Correct? | ||
| I think towards the end of his life, he may not have been homeless. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| I think throughout a lot of it... | ||
| Well, I would almost guarantee that after that... | ||
| I mean, Alex Jones did just say he has a house. | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
| I'm sure. | ||
| But the point being... | ||
| He spent a lot of time homeless, though. | ||
| The point being, he did an immense amount of good, and Alex Jones has turned that into, you are a small... | ||
| Meaningless pawn for the globalists. | ||
| And that you've made money off your homeless act or whatever it was. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Which is... | ||
| Because you wore a dress. | ||
| Now... | ||
| Which... | ||
| Absolutely would gain you much more attention than if you didn't. | ||
| I would also say that he ran for mayor three times, but unsuccessfully. | ||
| But Austin's full of fucking weirdos like that. | ||
| Kinky Friedman runs for office all the fucking time. | ||
| And he writes mystery novels about him and his cat solving crimes. | ||
| So it's full of awesome, weird personalities. | ||
| Yeah, it's Austin. | ||
| Anyway... | ||
| As we discussed, they had... | ||
| What was it? | ||
| Was it a balloon store? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or... | |
| No, a... | ||
| A pinata store. | ||
| A specialty pinata store. | ||
| Next to a cat sanctuary that Alex Jones thinks that the trendies are trying to shut down. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Over his stupid misunderstanding of bullshit. | ||
| Makes perfect sense. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God, I love the idea of a pinata store so much. | |
| I'm super excited when I was listening to this. | ||
| I was like, I know Leslie. | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| That's super cool. | ||
| And then he turned it into shit. | ||
| Alex, come on. | ||
| He should know better. | ||
| Actually, he shouldn't. | ||
| Alex is a closed-minded man. | ||
| Yeah, but how do you look at somebody who did that much? | ||
| I'm not saying he did everything. | ||
| I'm not saying that either. | ||
| I'm not saying Leslie is the hero of the world. | ||
| I'm definitely not saying that. | ||
| Probably also a drunk, let's be clear. | ||
| Oh, of course. | ||
| No, there's a reason. | ||
| Mental illness, drinking, all of that stuff. | ||
| I have no doubt that by no means was he a saint. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| At the same time, I am not a saint, and I sure as fuck haven't done as much good as Leslie has. | ||
| We've donated a little money from this podcast. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| We donate a little bit to charity. | ||
| Yeah, we do our best, but that's definitely not on that scope or level. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no, no. | |
| So to turn that into something like that is just fucking offensive. | ||
| And from everything I could look up, I see no evidence of globalist involvement. | ||
| In his life. | ||
| So now you might be asking yourself, Jordan. | ||
| Was he funded by Hamdi Ulukaya? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ulukaya! | |
| Now we're making fun of his name. | ||
| We're making fun of Alex. | ||
| We're making fun of Alex, but yeah. | ||
| You might be asking yourself, alright, this is two years of the past. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Did Alex Jones always have his smooth-ass transitioning into a sales pitch skills? | ||
| Did he? | ||
| You might be asking yourself that. | ||
| I don't think he did. | ||
| Alright, let's see. | ||
| But the foreign banks can own jet aircraft and ship the drugs in and out of the country publicly. | ||
| They can be in the news. | ||
| Nobody gets in trouble. | ||
| Before I go any further, when I tell you stuff selling out, we never know what's going to be a bestseller. | ||
| Everything we promote and push and enforce. | ||
| The fact that he went from the foreign banks to his own bullshit is so blatant. | ||
| But the answer is kind of no. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because he did also have a long pause and then a So, no, he wasn't always as good. | ||
| No, by no means. | ||
| Or he might be just having an off day. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's possible. | |
| But now, he gets into this sales pitch. | ||
| He's overly concerned with gay marriage that he refuses to talk about. | ||
| And getting sued out of existence in two and a half years. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But he gets into this sales pitch, and it's too long for me to play it in its entirety. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| But he said something, and I was like, huh, it's a good thing that I listen to Alex Jones every day. | ||
| It's the only time I've ever said that. | ||
| No, it's not. | ||
| But if I didn't... | ||
| It is a dangerous thing to your mental health. | ||
| If I didn't, I would not have been able to recognize this next clip as evidence of a lie in a clip that we played on the March 30th episode. | ||
| He invalidates an argument that he made this March two years in the past. | ||
| This is very exciting for me. | ||
| You... | ||
| You are a fucking lunatic. | ||
| Listen to this, though. | ||
| I love you, but that is the craziest thing I have ever heard in my entire life. | ||
| But listen to this clip. | ||
| I think you'll agree with me. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So when I tell you Survival Shield X2 is going to be selling out soon, we're selling out of this proprietary iodine very quickly. | ||
| Group is close to hopefully getting more of the deep earth crystals. | ||
| But you have to go to... | ||
| I don't want to get into all of it, but it's very complex to go in on the market. | ||
| Contracts. | ||
| You got to bid. | ||
| To try to get these aggregates that are very rare. | ||
| And by rare, deep earth iodine's not rare. | ||
| The clean stuff is. | ||
| And then most people aren't going to drill in five, ten million dollar drilling operations to go 12,000 feet to get it. | ||
| I mean, it costs millions of dollars. | ||
| So that's why it's hard to get, because you've got to find the weirdo companies that are out drilling in the right area that will go for this. | ||
| I mean, it's finite stuff, because people aren't drilling for it. | ||
| We're the weirdos that understand how important it is and go out and get it. | ||
| If you want Survival Shield X2, secure yours today, Infowarslife.com. | ||
| Now, the clip from the March 30th episode is way too fucking long for me to play here because it's a nine-minute, almost at the point of tears, drunk sales pitch. | ||
| Yes, I recall that one. | ||
| You remember what he was saying, and I will refresh for the listeners what he was saying, is he was, on March 30th of 2017, he was saying... | ||
| That the globalists were trying to cut off his iodine supply. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And he was using almost every single argument that he just made here. | ||
| For why they... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But he was saying that it was some sort of concerted effort against him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Two years later, but two years before, he's like, listen, not many people do this. | ||
| It's expensive. | ||
| That sort of thing. | ||
| What an asshole. | ||
| Now, I could see the argument being made that two years ago, the globalists weren't. | ||
| Trying to take his deep earth iodine. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And now that they know about his deep earth iodine and the wacky people who do that, now they're going for it. | ||
| I don't like... | ||
| I don't... | ||
| I love your... | ||
| I love your speechlessness. | ||
| It's not speechlessness, it's frustration. | ||
| Because it's like, yes, okay, fine. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| See? | ||
| Done. | ||
| Problem solved. | ||
| That's how the Alex Jones game is played. | ||
| I'm selling Alex Jones now. | ||
| You could legitimately do that for every single argument against him. | ||
| What if they were doing it? | ||
| Well, do you know why? | ||
| Fine. | ||
| I've been taking Deep Earth Iodine. | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
| I'm super powered. | ||
| I don't need super male vitality. | ||
| I'm doing just fine right there. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But without my Deep Earth Iodine, I don't have the energy. | ||
| I don't have the... | ||
| Whatever else it is deep earth iodine is supposed to do. | ||
| It's unclear. | ||
| I don't know why the crystals are so important. | ||
| I don't either. | ||
| I don't understand any of the deep earth iodine thing. | ||
| And according to all of the scientific research that I have read, there is absolutely no... | ||
| I have read some reviews of some of his products recently, and I don't know if they're jokes or not. | ||
| The best type of joke. | ||
| Like, they're so bizarre that I don't know if they're someone making a, like, just trolling. | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But there are a number of them for Caveman. | ||
| His bone broth. | ||
| The bone broth? | ||
| That our Millie Weaver finds delicious. | ||
| She loves it. | ||
| Tastes like chocolate. | ||
| There's a bunch of them, though, that have the same sort of pattern. | ||
| They follow the same pattern. | ||
| That is, I can't not take this now. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But it's not like I feel so good when I'm on it. | ||
| It's addiction. | ||
| I feel so shitty when I don't take it. | ||
| It is addiction. | ||
| That to me indicates, like, I know from... | ||
| Past drug use. | ||
| Yeah, right? | ||
| That you get into an elevated state for a long enough time. | ||
| Normal feels shitty. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so, if you're taking something that really fucks with your metabolism, really fucks with your heart rate, whatever, the chaga mushroom, and all this bullshit does. | ||
| Never heard of the chaga mushroom. | ||
| No, I don't know what the fuck else is in there. | ||
| It's not been evaluated by the FDA, but neither has, like, yellow jackets. | ||
| And shit like that. | ||
| Trucker speed. | ||
| No, all of the GNC vitamin pills and all of that shit, none of that is regulated by the FDA. | ||
| And they definitely spend billions of dollars to make sure. | ||
| Well, they don't have to spend billions. | ||
| They spend millions of dollars because our politicians are that cheap. | ||
| It isn't even hard to buy our politicians now. | ||
| It makes total sense to me. | ||
| Two things could make sense to me. | ||
| One, that these are joke reviews. | ||
| The other thing that totally I would believe is that it really fucks you up in a good way. | ||
| It's drug dependency. | ||
| Basically. | ||
| And now when you don't take it, you're like, oh, I'm so depleted because I don't have my bone broth. | ||
| Like if I don't drink for two days. | ||
| A couple of them were even like, once this goes off sale, I'm not going to be able to afford it and I'm really going to miss it. | ||
| I need it. | ||
| It was really a huge bummer. | ||
| That's really sad. | ||
| Which actually could bring into focus his economic model. | ||
| A little bit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah. | |
| If there is stuff that is sort of habit forming. | ||
| First taste is 51% off for the Easter sale. | ||
|
unidentified
|
53, baby. | |
| Yeah, 53% off. | ||
| It totally makes sense as a model. | ||
| Well, drug dealers have been doing it for decades. | ||
| So we've got a couple more clips, and then we're going to delve into two adventures, adventurisms that happen on this episode. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| This next clip, though, is really, really unfortunate. | ||
| And Alex is walking what I would describe as a tightrope of a metaphor. | ||
| And I don't think he succeeds. | ||
| I love his inability to metaphor correctly. | ||
| This is dangerous. | ||
| His ability to metaphor is like if I threw a hundred black widows into his studio but kept them in their own separate pen. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Great metaphor. | ||
| That's a great metaphor. | ||
| I'm going to say because this is such a tightrope, Let's put the mic down and enjoy this because I think we're going to hear him make something that borders on a very racist metaphor. | ||
| Oh no! | ||
| We could assess it after the fact, but how it hits my ears is very racist. | ||
| Wait, why would you say it's borderline if then you're like... | ||
| Because I could see an argument for what he's trying to say. | ||
| This is like a deep earth crystal thing all over. | ||
| It is. | ||
| You're only given a place at the table. | ||
| He's talking about with the globalists. | ||
| If you work against what's wholesome and good, because instinctively they want to bring down what's wholesome and good, even though they feed off of it, because they're jealous of it and they're diametrically opposed to it, and they have historical and genetic memories. | ||
| That the good has defeated them over and over again. | ||
| When I say them, I mean corrupt people throughout history all the same. | ||
| And that's why they argue when I talk about genetics, I don't mean a black bloodline or a white bloodline or an Asian bloodline, but within blacks, Asians, whites, whatever, everybody knows that you can say, oh no, don't get that dachshund. | ||
| It comes from really mentally ill biters. | ||
| That's really a screwed up breeder. | ||
| They got problems. | ||
| Oh, this breeder's wonderful. | ||
| Nice, sweet, smart dogs. | ||
| Well, it's the same thing with humans. | ||
| You've got a race between good, loving creators who just want to be healthy and happy and care about others and who don't think about power and people that do want the power and who crave it and who aren't going to let you go work 9 to 5 and put your kids through college and then go out to the lake cottage on the weekend. | ||
| They're going to destroy your world because they're going to conquer you. | ||
| Because they know that things are going to get so bad, you're going to finally wake up and get together and bring them down. | ||
| And so they're there, working, always working. | ||
| When we come back, I'll give the number out, and we're going to get the latest Mark Dice video. | ||
| It's one of the worst ever. | ||
| I love that plug at the end. | ||
| We're going to get to one of the worst Mark Dice videos ever. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| I agree. | ||
| It's terrible. | ||
| So let's assess that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's assess that metaphor. | |
| That is so racist. | ||
| It's more racist that he couches it with the, I'm not talking about a black bloodline. | ||
| Yeah, he immediately went to, I am protecting myself from this racist state. | ||
| He's pulling a full-on, I'm not a racist butt. | ||
| Perfectly, yes, absolutely. | ||
| That is a seamless transition into old white dude racism. | ||
| Now, the reason I said it was on the border is because the point he's trying to make, I think, is that these globalists come from I'm a full-on member of the 5% Nation now. | ||
| I hope you know that. | ||
| I'm glad to have another inductee. | ||
| I don't think you can ever make that argument succinctly that he's trying to make. | ||
| When you're using genetic lines and stuff like that? | ||
| Unless you're going full hog. | ||
| You're just going all the way and you are saying that the elites are made up of the nine powerful bloodlines that existed from blah blah. | ||
| If you're going that far and you're going David Icke on us, then your metaphor is fine. | ||
| You're not being racist. | ||
| You're being an idiot. | ||
| And patently anti-Semitic. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think his... | |
| The way I understood it was he was trying to say, as Alex Jones as possible, that all humans are genetically good, but the people who are genetically bad are like the dachshund? | ||
| Who's a biter. | ||
| Who's a biter. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Now, there's... | ||
| Now, if you want to pull the dachshund transcends race in this metaphor, I'm fine with that. | ||
| Except he picked a very specific genetic thing. | ||
| Like, the dachshund in particular is more likely to bite? | ||
| I don't see any way to get out of this without you at least going, Alex, you know... | ||
| You're being racist, right? | ||
| Well, especially because it is like... | ||
| Because the get-off-the-air music started playing, too. | ||
| And it got loud. | ||
| Yeah, they really... | ||
| Somebody was in the booth. | ||
| Buckley was just at the potentiometer. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Up, up, up, up. | ||
| No, no, Alex! | ||
| Alex, back it away! | ||
| Alex is an insane biter. | ||
| But here, I think, if I could crystallize this, deep-earth crystallize this... | ||
| I think the reason that it comes off as racist and is is because this argument has been made by racists since time immemorial. | ||
| The idea that certain races are inferior because of the shitty bloodline and what have you. | ||
| So whenever you try and make that argument the exact same argument about something different, it has that baggage that comes along with it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| And when you're talking about something like... | ||
| You know... | ||
| That was the justification for slavery. | ||
| And when you're talking... | ||
| Like, from the start, they were like, well, genetically, they're blah, blah, blah. | ||
| They're predetermined to be less than. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And when he, you know, I mean, again, this relates directly back to the protocols of the elders of Zion. | ||
| This is a belief that the alleged Zionist cabal has about humans. | ||
| And Alex thinks that the globalists have about us. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's a direct mirror. | ||
| Through this... | ||
| Racish? | ||
| No, it's racist. | ||
| Metaphor. | ||
| And I think another reason that it is racist, I have to stick this down, is because the idea of the behavior of being a biter, something like that, that is something that is in your genes. | ||
| That is not like... | ||
| Instead of learned behavior. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's just... | ||
| It's really troubling. | ||
| It's really troubling for me to hear him make arguments like that. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Especially because if you are a racist and you hear that, you get it. | ||
| You get it. | ||
| That is also like a smokescreen for you to say you're not racist because he preambled it with the, it's not about white, black, or Asian, which are the only people he is aware of. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| So you get to, like, hide behind that where you say, no, no, no, no, no. | ||
| It's not that I'm racist. | ||
| It's that I'm talking about genetics. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not... | ||
| Skin color. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I'm not talking about racism. | ||
| I'm talking about phrenology. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, right, right. | |
| Some people are good, and some people are bad, and that's because of their genes and their bloodlines, and maybe the people that I think are bad are the ones who don't look like me. | ||
| So let's get off this. | ||
| At this point, Alex introduces the fact that he's going to start taking calls. | ||
| Yes, I saw that. | ||
| He did say he was going to open up the phone lines. | ||
| When he comes back, he introduces the topics that he wants to talk about. | ||
| He wants to talk about Greece. | ||
| He wants to talk about how the world is being overrun by these globalists. | ||
| And then he poses this question that I think is poorly framed. | ||
| Will this be the big global meltdown coming up this winter, early next year? | ||
| It may be. | ||
| Or will it just be another global crisis? | ||
| That they engineer to get even more power and more bailouts while blaming it on Greece. | ||
| Seems like neither of those options, like, there's a third option, you know? | ||
| What's that? | ||
| I don't know, a third option. | ||
| I can't say any. | ||
| Either this is going to be the great global meltdown, or it's just going to be another thing that the globalists have orchestrated. | ||
| Right, so it's going to be the great global meltdown, or a global crisis. | ||
| Not quite, it's like, it's either going to be the worst thing ever, or just... | ||
| The worst thing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He also doesn't really end up taking any meaningful calls. | ||
| He does talk to one guy more about Russia, and it's the exact same sort of stuff. | ||
| He's playing the fence and being like... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But none of the calls were worthwhile, and it sucks because they take up a good amount of the show. | ||
| So we lose a good 40-minute chunk of usable material just because it's such garbage, these phone calls. | ||
| But... | ||
| Before he gets to taking phone calls in earnest. | ||
| Now, let me ask you a question about those phone calls real quick. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| Were there any that weren't, like, just jerk-off agreement fests? | ||
| Did any conversation really happen? | ||
| One. | ||
| There was someone named Grandma who called in. | ||
| All right, I'm already on board. | ||
| And she wanted to talk about how the bond market, if it falls apart... | ||
| That is a bad way to talk to Alex Jones. | ||
| If it falls apart, then people's pensions won't get paid. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And Alex tries to talk like he understands the situation. | ||
| No clue. | ||
| He doesn't. | ||
| She doesn't either. | ||
| So it's really troubling. | ||
| And hey, third party, I don't really either. | ||
| But I can smell bullshit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, right, right. | |
| And they're just dancing around. | ||
| Alex is using $5 words. | ||
| And she's like, you know, you always talk about this. | ||
| This othering thing where you've got divide and conquer mentalities. | ||
| You always talk about black and white, but you never talk about... | ||
| And he's like, do you mean generations, ma 'am? | ||
| He interrupts her. | ||
| He's like, yes, that is another thing. | ||
| We do talk about it. | ||
| We should talk about it more. | ||
| Buckley, write that down. | ||
| Let's talk about it more. | ||
| Great. | ||
| Generations. | ||
| Yeah, everybody trying to turn the young against the old. | ||
| Thanks, Buckley. | ||
| So, yeah, I mean, that was kind of not an agreement fest, but it still wasn't tension. | ||
| But another thing he does a bunch on this episode is introduce topics that he's gonna get to and doesn't. | ||
| Right. | ||
| He keeps having like... | ||
| In classic Alex Jones fashion. | ||
| We'll get to it in the next break. | ||
| Never gets to him. | ||
| This first one... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Did we ever come back to Farrakhan? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| How about... | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| I've got... | ||
| Ban the American flag. | ||
| Did we ever get to that one? | ||
| We're about to in a minute. | ||
| Fuck yes! | ||
| I'm so happy about that one. | ||
| Because that one was the first thing where I was like, fuck yeah, let's get into this Alex Jones shit. | ||
| So I actually have a lot to say about that, but before we get to it, he has to talk about a story he's not going to get to. | ||
| We're also going to look at the ACLU now not supporting religious freedom of speech, saying restrict it. | ||
| Just like the ACLU does. | ||
| They only used... | ||
| An open society to where we accepted all this, quote, alternative stuff. | ||
| Now we're not going to be tolerated. | ||
| No matter what your view is. | ||
| Don't believe in man-made global warming? | ||
| Don't want to pay Al Gore a tax? | ||
| Boom, you're in trouble. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Don't want to hire a tranny to be your Catholic school teacher? | ||
| I don't even want you to stay tranny. | ||
| Boom, you're shut down. | ||
| And we're not joking. | ||
| Don't want to have a Catholic church or your Protestant church pay for abortions? | ||
| Boom, you're shut down. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Good. | ||
| This is the opposite of tolerance. | ||
| It's the big communal system. | ||
| No one is forcing a church to pay for abortions. | ||
| Nope, everybody was. | ||
| No. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah, yeah. | |
| I remember it. | ||
| In 2015, I remember the most important thing that I talked about with a lot of people was like, hey, you know what I want? | ||
| I want to force churches to pay for my abortion. | ||
| I'm not even having one. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Uh-uh. | ||
| Give me money. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Catholic Church. | ||
| Also, nobody forced Alex to pay for those abortions, so... | ||
| Wink. | ||
| So anyway, it goes on. | ||
| It's the great tyranny. | ||
| You have a right to put on a dress. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| But you do not have a right... | ||
| Say yes to the dress. | ||
| ...to not have foreign banks destroy your country. | ||
| This is the great joke of social engineering, where they made being trendy, the new religion, and now people... | ||
| It's perfect. | ||
| Because they can change the dogma day to day, hour to hour, with the new accepted reality, whatever that may be. | ||
| And so they only, with a quasi-puritanical nation like the U.S., that was really always piratical and wild right under the surface, they make it sex and, quote, deviance to be the bait so that we accept whatever the new changes are. | ||
| And now we've opened the door up to whatever they want. | ||
| It's politically incorrect to let your 11-year-old play basketball in the backyard. | ||
| You'll be arrested. | ||
| You let your 7-year-old daughter in your small town run across as you watch her out the window and play at the park like I did? | ||
| I used to go to my grandparents' house that was in Hyde Park in Austin, and I'd be 6, 7 years old, and I'd stand with them during the summer, and I'd run across the street. | ||
| If you guys look up the name of the park in Austin, in Hyde Park, it'll pop in my head in a minute. | ||
| Spoiler alert, he talks about going to this park for like four minutes. | ||
| He really lost the thread in terms of complaining about the ACLU. | ||
| So that 11-year-old kid who got arrested, he got taken by the authorities for playing basketball in his own yard. | ||
| Oh, that was a real thing? | ||
| Yeah, it was a story that did happen. | ||
| There were neighbors who thought that the parents were negligent because the kid was always home alone. | ||
| Because they got off work much later. | ||
| It was a latchkey kid situation. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| It is nosy neighbors, I believe. | ||
| Yeah, kind of fucked them. | ||
| I looked into it, and I think it is like, guys, mind your fucking business. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But their motivation was protecting this child, because their concern was he didn't have water, didn't have food for the time that the parents were, or didn't have access to a bathroom, because he was locked out of his house. | ||
| Oh, that is not good. | ||
| And to make the matters worse, the mom... | ||
| Whenever she was being questioned about it, it was like, the officers themselves said he had a big yard. | ||
| He could have gone to the bathroom on it. | ||
| Alright, so that's like, hey, you know, I left the dog alone in the house for two weeks while I was on vacation, but I left enough food for him. | ||
| Yeah, you're showing yourself to not be super into what people are complaining about, mom. | ||
| But I tend to agree that it, you know... | ||
| They shouldn't have had the kids taken away, and they did get them back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It was a fucked up situation a little bit, but it's not what Alex is talking about. | ||
| He's saying that it is like this. | ||
| They're trying to destroy the family and take away your kids. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Of course. | |
| Trying to desensitize you to things like this. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| There's always extenuating circumstances. | ||
| There's always a reason why, you know, people, these things happen. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| No, I mean, anytime a right-winger tells me one of those anecdotes... | ||
| If you look into it for a second, if you just Google it, all of a sudden you start finding shit where you're like, no, this wasn't that. | ||
| You think it's this, but in reality, not. | ||
| Unfortunately, there are a number of people on the left who do that too, but it's usually not as obvious, or at least not as awful. | ||
| And their agenda is generally to create more... | ||
| Good things? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So it's still bad to use lies and propaganda, but it's not usually... | ||
| Like, if Alex Jones gets his way, we're living in a very dark place. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If sort of left-wing... | ||
| Do you mean now? | ||
| If left-wing folks... | ||
| Do you mean when he got his way and Trump was elected? | ||
| Well, but let's say, like, if... | ||
| And not just Trump. | ||
| The entire Congress is Republican and so on and so forth. | ||
| And still can't get shit done. | ||
| And the fucking Supreme Court. | ||
| Well, they're all... | ||
| Right. | ||
| Again, our saving grace is these people, by virtue of what they believe, they are already revealing themselves to be dumb. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| So again, our saving grace is we are being run by people too dumb to enact the dumb shit they want to do. | ||
| They're in that upper right quadrant of the evil, stupid... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| They are both evil and stupid, but they're too stupid to enact enough evil. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| But the point I was going to say is that if you take someone like Keith Olbermann or something like that, who is kind of a left-wing propagandist, you could possibly label him as that. | ||
| If he got his way, we'd just have more social programs. | ||
| There might be better safety nets for people. | ||
| And if you built that on a lie, I'm not super thrilled with that. | ||
| I don't think that's good. | ||
| But the end result is way better than us having... | ||
| A mentally decaying bigot as our president. | ||
| That is probably for the better. | ||
| And just totally scaling back. | ||
| I mean, every single day it's some new fucking thing. | ||
| But, anyway. | ||
| God, that is the perfect summation of the world we live in right now. | ||
| Me clearing my throat? | ||
| Every single day it's a new fucking thing. | ||
| It's a new thing rolled back that, oh, school lunch programs are going away. | ||
| Oh, God. | ||
| Great. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Cool. | |
| Let's privatize it. | ||
| Again, I swear to you, this is the ultimate frustration. | ||
| I would absolutely live with this bullshit. | ||
| If he had the most aggressive anti-climate change policy, there's so much shit that I would tolerate because then the human race would continue and we could fucking correct the course. | ||
| Well, the good news is there's a breakaway globalist society that will continue. | ||
| We'll just all die. | ||
| That is good. | ||
| Who cares about the planet? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I gotta give them a call. | |
| Yeah, I know. | ||
| They rejected my application. | ||
| They rejected my application. | ||
| Tweet at your boy. | ||
| Very frustrating. | ||
| Tweet at your boys. | ||
| Alright, so now it's time for us to get to the phone. | ||
| Soros, you know you want to become a policy wonk. | ||
| Policy wonk. | ||
| Policy. | ||
| Wonk. | ||
| That's our battle cry. | ||
| Yeah, it's a very bad battle cry. | ||
| If it ends on that kind of minor key, it's a very bad battle cry. | ||
| So, Jan suggested initially June 24th. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And I did listen to that episode, and it was chock-a-block with talk about how... | ||
| It's evil and wrong that people are trying to get the Confederate flag taken down from places. | ||
| Fuck you if you think it's evil and wrong. | ||
| Their argument is it's a free speech thing. | ||
| Fuck you. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Great. | ||
| I don't want to have that argument because I don't care. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| I don't care if someone has a Confederate flag in their car, in their house, publicly. | ||
| I don't really even care. | ||
| But if it's like a state building or something like that, I very much care. | ||
| That's bad. | ||
| If you're not a horrifying racist... | ||
| No, I don't even... | ||
| That's great! | ||
| I don't even subscribe to that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But generally speaking... | |
| I don't even subscribe to that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Generally speaking, if you have a Confederate flag, you're doing it. | |
| I don't even subscribe to that. | ||
| I give a wide berth to it. | ||
| I think that there are... | ||
| There are legitimate free speech things that you could point to. | ||
| But that is the smokescreen argument for... | ||
| I want my racism to be left alone. | ||
| There's a vast majority of people who celebrate Old Dixie who are huge racists. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But that's not all of them. | ||
| Vast majority. | ||
| But that's not all of them, and I don't think it's right to ban a flag. | ||
| I do think it's wrong to have it up in state buildings and stuff like that. | ||
| And I think, for the most part, that's the argument that people have had. | ||
| I don't think that there is a legitimate or widespread group who is saying, Let's ban the flag, period. | ||
| Let's ban the Confederate flag, period. | ||
| But that is Alex's position on it. | ||
| Alex thinks that that's what people are doing. | ||
| It's the same thing with the Ten Commandments in front of the courthouse. | ||
| Nobody wants to ban you reading the Ten fucking Commandments. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nope. | |
| But I don't want those in front of the courthouse because that is not... | ||
| Justice. | ||
| That implies that it's Christian justice. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Which would be a bad daytime jug show. | ||
| Super bad daytime jug. | ||
| Unless it was Christian Bale. | ||
| Yeah, goddammit! | ||
| You got there first. | ||
| I was going to say Christian Okoye. | ||
| Football star Christian Okoye from the Chiefs. | ||
| And other teams. | ||
| But, so, Alex extrapolates... | ||
|
unidentified
|
I am the justice in the night. | |
| Alex... | ||
| And on daytime TV. | ||
| Tune in, 11 b.m. | ||
| So Alex on the 24th is going hog wild about this. | ||
| He is just going on like, next they're going to ban the American flag. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| So that's what he says. | ||
| And Rush Limbaugh is saying the same thing. | ||
| And here's what ends up happening. | ||
| Mark Dice. | ||
| One of the worst special reports ever. | ||
| He goes out and does one of his field pieces. | ||
| We've talked about Mark Dice before. | ||
| Am I going to have to listen to Mark Dice? | ||
| You are. | ||
| I think this is the first time I'll have heard him. | ||
| No, this is the second. | ||
| We've listened to one of his reports before. | ||
| He's very ineffective as a man on the street. | ||
| He, I think, has some kind of personality disorder. | ||
| Learning disability? | ||
| He's unable to make eye contact with people as he's interviewing them on the street. | ||
| He looks past them. | ||
| That's weird. | ||
| It's upsetting. | ||
| To watch? | ||
| It's not fun. | ||
| It's not good. | ||
| But Alex Jones sent Mark Dice out. | ||
| Mark might have come up with this on his own. | ||
| I have no fucking idea. | ||
| He may just be wandering around with a video camera. | ||
| It's possible. | ||
| So he goes out and tries to get people to sign. | ||
| Video camera? | ||
| There's a video camera. | ||
| Yeah, I know, but what world am I living in? | ||
| Anyways, continue. | ||
| It's an iPhone. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| So he goes around with a clipboard trying to get people on the beach to sign a petition trying to get a new flag. | ||
| Get rid of the old glory and get a new flag in honor of the New World Order. | ||
| And it would be a pyramid. | ||
| He's very fast. | ||
| The one with Hulk Hogan? | ||
| No, I wish. | ||
| The two sweets? | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| No, it's not that one. | ||
| It's on the back of the dollar bill, the all-seeing eye on the pyramid. | ||
| He's very fast and loose with the details about it. | ||
| Naturally. | ||
| So he goes out and does this video. | ||
| Alex posts it on InfoWars. | ||
| Drudge Report links to the video, and because of that, Alex, on Infowars, starts reporting that people are calling for the American flag to be banned. | ||
| He has made... | ||
| It's a loop of bullshit. | ||
| It's a complete Ouroboros of lies. | ||
| It is insane to see it, like, just literally, this is exactly what's going on. | ||
| It's amazing. | ||
| They're making the news, they're commenting on the news. | ||
| And then their commenting becomes news itself. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| It's the Fox News model of right-wing echo chamber. | ||
| There is no news at the bottom of it. | ||
| There is nothing. | ||
| There is nobody who's asking for the flag to be banned. | ||
| Right. | ||
| There is only Mark Dice on the street. | ||
| That is all there is. | ||
| And now, we're going to listen to Mark Dice's report. | ||
| And I want to tell you, I'm going to pause it at a couple points. | ||
| Because I have taken notes about all of these people that he goes and talks to. | ||
| Excellent. | ||
| And it doesn't look good for him. | ||
| So anyway, here we go. | ||
| Here is that report from Mark Dush. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We helped to support banning the American flag. | |
| We're issuing a new American flag. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| Hold on! | ||
| Somebody, the moment he said that, somebody's like, no, fuck you. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| His first... | ||
| His first person is already against him. | ||
| Two people, no. | ||
| I'm out of here. | ||
| So he's already negated it. | ||
| Even Fox News would have edited that guy out. | ||
| Yeah, or put him in the middle somewhere or something like that. | ||
| It's like, hey, we got one patriot in there. | ||
| And then had Mark Dice make a funny face to the camera or something like that. | ||
| If you're a pro. | ||
| Some straight up bullshit. | ||
| So the next guy he talks to is a guy in an American flag tee. | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And an American flag hat, and he's drunk. | |
| He's on the beach. | ||
| Like, he's not staggering around Alex Jones-style drunk, but he's having a good time out there on the beach, probably looking for a wife. | ||
| Right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know what I'm saying? | |
| He's out there. | ||
| He's looking for his... | ||
| Oh, fuck. | ||
| Never mind. | ||
| I don't want to ruin it, but he also does not sign the petition. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And a lot of people are offended by the American flag. | |
| It has a history of imperialism and racism as well. | ||
| So we're having a petition to implement a new American flag. | ||
| You helped us sign the petition to issue a new American flag for a new world order. | ||
| It sounds like a great idea, but I do not like to sign things. | ||
| So, that's what you say when you don't want to sign something and you're like, oh, you're a creep. | ||
| Dude, just fucking get out of my face. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're a weirdo. | |
| Get out of my face! | ||
| Now, at this point, someone who I think is a plant charges into the shot. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| His face is never shown. | ||
| He comes in and he aggressively signs the petition. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I don't think this is a real person. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's bullshit. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| That guy, like, that is exactly what I said to somebody who is like, um... | ||
| Do you want to help save the dolphins? | ||
| It sounds like a great idea. | ||
| But I'm gonna leave you. | ||
| I gotta go. | ||
| I have other non-dolphin related activities to do right now. | ||
| I gotta be over there. | ||
| I believe it's a good idea. | ||
| I'm gonna go. | ||
| I'm gonna get out of here. | ||
| This isn't personal, but I gotta go. | ||
| No, I gotta be not here with you right now. | ||
| This is not because you're weird. | ||
| Why aren't you looking at me? | ||
| Why aren't you looking at me? | ||
| Mark Dice, this isn't how humans interact! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh my god, he scares me so much. | ||
| He has so little charisma. | ||
| Like, I've said this about people like, I don't know, the Jerome Corses of the world. | ||
| The David Knights. | ||
| The David Knights. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I would fucking go to across the world in a balloon with David Knight before I sat down with Mark Dice. | ||
| Ah, but I put a hundred black widows in that balloon, so there you go, you're stuck! | ||
| That's a metaphor. | ||
| So here comes the guy who just charges in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So you think, I mean, a lot of, you can understand, a lot of people are offended by the, uh, yeah, a lot of people, a lot of people are offended by the American flag. | |
| It has a history of oppression and imperialism. | ||
| Oh my God, you are so fucking boring. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Birthday dare to support issuing a new American flag for the new world order. | |
| I think it's about time we do that, wouldn't you agree? | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| Maybe something with, like, an all-seeing eye and a pyramid on it. | ||
| So as he's trying to just... | ||
| Fuck yeah, man. | ||
| As he's trying to describe what the new flag would look like, the guy just walks off. | ||
| He signs it, and he's like, yeah, I'm out of here. | ||
| Fuck yeah, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just something to represent the New World Order. | |
| Thank you for supporting that. | ||
| Part of the New World Order is to basically ban the old American flag, and we're going to put up a new... | ||
| This guy, I don't know if he speaks English. | ||
| Because he doesn't say anything. | ||
| He doesn't seem to register awareness of the things that Mark Dice is saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| He's wearing, like, a muscle tee, and he just sort of, like, is just sort of looking at him confused, signs the thing, and then without saying a word, walks away from him. | ||
| Just walks away. | ||
| Now, I will admit, I also like the reaction of the guy who signs it and then just says, fuck yeah, and then walks away. | ||
| I don't hate it. | ||
| I think he's fake. | ||
| Because that's pretty funny, too. | ||
| Like, I might do that, just be like, hey, whatever, man, fuck yeah, I'll sign this shit. | ||
| Yeah, I might do that if I were drunk. | ||
| Anyway, so he's just talking to this guy who doesn't say a word back to him, and then Alex goes on a fucking, just tees off on this guy with a muscle shirt. | ||

New American flag over the Capitol to signify the new world order, but we just needed some more signatures. | |
| Thanks for supporting the new American flag. | ||
| We're pulling down the Confederate flag. | ||
| Back up to that last guy. | ||
| That fella is the quintessential modern tough guy trendy. | ||
| There's different types of trendies. | ||
| Hundreds of different variants, but just knows how to act tough. | ||
| And that's what our nation is. | ||
| It's just a bunch of guys walking around acting tough, and they don't want to know what's going on. | ||
| They just want to look cool to other people and put on a front. | ||
| But if you look at these guys' eyes every time, they just have this weak look at them. | ||
| It's so pathetic. | ||
| Do you think this guy is white or not? | ||
| I'm going to go with new. | ||
| Bingo. | ||
| And he signs it to ban the American flag. | ||
| Seven out of ten did. | ||
| Here it is. | ||
|
unidentified
|
...orders to basically ban the old American flag, and we're going to put up a new American flag over the Capitol to signify the new world order, but we just needed some more signatures. | |
| Thanks for supporting the new American flag. | ||
| We're pulling down the Confederate flag in a lot of cities to end the era of racism, and... | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| Fuck this. | ||
| This is so boring. | ||
| We're going to put up a ton of American flags. | ||
| Let me walk you through. | ||
| Do you want to ban the American flag? | ||
| I like the American flag. | ||
| Mark, shut up. | ||
| Flags are fun. | ||
| Let me walk you through who the rest of the people are. | ||
| So the next person he talks to is a really nice girl who I think she's just super excitable and happy. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And she's like, oh, that's interesting. | ||
| Doesn't seem to have a feeling about it either way. | ||
| Next person he talks to is a lady, and he's like, hey, we're gonna try and get a new flag. | ||
| And she's like, nah, I like the stars and bars. | ||
| And walks away from him. | ||
| Two guys walk up. | ||
| One of them is a chubby dude in a tie-dye t-shirt. | ||
| Because I think he's high as hell. | ||
| It's him and another guy. | ||
| They're two skateboard dudes in a tie-dyed shirt and the other guy's in a muscle shirt. | ||
| Because they're on a beach! | ||
| Because they're on the fucking beach! | ||
| Why would you go to the beach for this shit? | ||
| Because you know that dumb people are there. | ||
| People who don't want to answer your questions and you can twist it into being... | ||
| Yeah, but just go to a mall. | ||
| He might not be allowed in. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| Only open air areas. | ||
| Yeah, Mark Dice Clay is not allowed in. | ||
| He's got a weird restraining order. | ||
| Only open areas 20 feet outside of any public place. | ||
| So there's these two dudes who may or may not be high, and they both sign it, but they're also like, whatever, we don't care. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And then the last group that they talk to before he cuts it off is two dudes who are straight up... | ||
| Baked out of their mind. | ||
| They got sunglasses on, and one of them is just staring at Mark Dice with his mouth slightly open. | ||
| One of them doesn't have a shirt on, but has a backpack. | ||
| Great. | ||
| Love that guy. | ||
| What are you doing, Mark Dice? | ||
| I don't know what point you're making, but if it is that people want the American flag band... | ||
| It seems like he made the exact opposite point. | ||
| Haven't most of the people we've heard have just been like, fuck off? | ||
| There's one first guy who was actually a group of two said, absolutely not. | ||
| The second guy said, no. | ||
| There's the lady who walked away. | ||
| There's the random dude who ran up and was like, fuck yeah! | ||
| Everybody who did sign it, except for that guy who I do think was fake. | ||
| I think he was a plant. | ||
| Everybody else was ambivalent about it. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| You're a random dude asking questions on a beach. | ||
| Don't be a dick right now. | ||
| That's all I heard in that clip is, and it's not even like the shitty Leno man on the street bit where he gets people to actually talk to him and answer questions and have that. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| It's just a bullshit, like, dude, leave me alone. | ||
| He thinks it's a prank. | ||
| It's not a prank. | ||
| There is nothing here. | ||
| Because if you sign that, then so what? | ||
| If you ambivalently, politely sign that for him, that doesn't prove that you want the American flag ban. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| That just proves that you're a decent person who doesn't know how to have boundaries. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or just, like, the easiest way to get him to go away is to sign his petition. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| You know that nothing is gonna come from it because that's such a wildly stupid idea. | ||
| I've signed hundreds of things I don't agree with. | ||
| Yeah, it doesn't matter. | ||
| There's no possibility of that. | ||
| Like, even if you hate America, which is most of the GOP, you're not going to sign. | ||
| You're not going to actually want the American flag to go away. | ||
| Like, it's made by a woman. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's everything that America wishes it could be. | ||
| It is all of the states represented. | ||
| It is all of us together. | ||
| It is built around that idea of either we hang together or we hang separately. | ||
| Now you're using Alex Jones quotes. | ||
| But that is... | ||
| No, that's not... | ||
| Okay. | ||
| He came up with that. | ||
| I'm done. | ||
| I'm done. | ||
| I'm out. | ||
| Actually... | ||
| Will Shakespeare. | ||
| We're coming towards the end of it, but for the last about hour and a half of the show, he has an interview with this guy named Lionel. | ||
| One name, like Madonna. | ||
| Lionel. | ||
| And this guy is wacky. | ||
| He is a fast-talking New York dude. | ||
| He is something else. | ||
| I've seen him on the show before, and I strongly disagree with him about almost everything. | ||
| But I don't hate hearing him talk. | ||
| He's one of those guests. | ||
| I wouldn't be in a hot air balloon across the world with him, but I'd take a short trip with him. | ||
| We're not talking about cross-country road trip, but if you picked him up and he was like, hey, I'm 20 miles down the road, you're like, fuck yeah, let's see what's up. | ||
| Depends on what the speed limit is, but yes, possibly. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| We're talking to the American Southwest where you can get 20 miles in 15 minutes. | ||
| I'm in. | ||
| So they have a really long interview where they just talk globalists. | ||
| And I cut out so much that's just so repetitive. | ||
| But at one point, Lionel starts describing what his plan would be if he was going to destroy our country. | ||
| And it's kind of interesting. | ||
| I'm on board. | ||
| I'm already on board. | ||
| Because two years later, see if you see any similarities to what's going on. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now, if I were going to destroy this country, here's what I would do. | |
| First and foremost, I would distract with bread and circuses the people more than ever. | ||
| Number two, I would have as a foundation for much of the economy this tissue-thin veneer, this latticework of cotton candy, of air. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Call the derivative. | |
| You say one and a half, maybe two. | ||
| It could be four or five quadrillion dollars of nothing. | ||
| Sold. | ||
| Then, I would throw in the myth, Alex, of American exceptionalism. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I would always have the fly. | |
| That is exactly the jingle-wister bullshit! | ||
| He's nailed it! | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's nailed it! | |
| This is exactly how you've destroyed the country! | ||
| Accidentally. | ||
| Is this guy the architect behind this whole thing? | ||
| I can't believe it. | ||
| 40 episodes in, spit take. | ||
| I genuinely spit take. | ||
| Who's our spit take wine? | ||
| I don't know, but that is, he just pulled the perfect, like that's Trump's rally. | ||
| Trump rallies, derivatives, American exceptionalism. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're there. | |
| We're there. | ||
| Yeah, that's exactly what we're, goddammit, this man might be a genius. | ||
| But he's saying it as this is what the globalists are doing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not what, um. | ||
| Well, unless Trump. | ||
| Who has recently come out as an internationalist and a globalist. | ||
| Well, Alex, you said, well, I didn't really mean it. | ||
| Fuck off, Alex. | ||
| He's a battered spouse. | ||
| That's it? | ||
| That's what he did? | ||
| Not really. | ||
| No, look, he's a good guy once you get to know him. | ||
| He's just saying that because he has to, and it's not that big a deal. | ||
| So Lionel has a little more. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
News and weird. | |
| We are impenetrable. | ||
| We are never going to be Puerto Rico or Greece. | ||
| Or Iceland, or Portugal, or the EU. | ||
| We're the United States. | ||
| We are immunized. | ||
| We have a vaccine against this. | ||
| Strange language for a vaccine denier show, but... | ||
| That is exactly what Trump is doing with, like, we're going to renegotiate these deals because we're going to be immune from all this. | ||
| He's promising us this exceptionalism. | ||
| No, that is a perfect summation. | ||
| Like, if I were going to destroy the country, I would hire Lionel to be my campaign supervisor because that guy is fucking on it. | ||
| Yeah, so there's another phase to this destruction. | ||
| I know you love phases. | ||
| I'm a big fan of phases. | ||
| I was very disappointed by our previous phase situation where we had one phase that was split up into three phases. | ||
| I'm not certain this is a discrete phase either, but we'll see. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then we're going to confuse people. | |
| We're going to cause the American people to be always upset over something and fool them and dupe them into thinking that they're involved. | ||
| We're going to let them think that there's some Confederate war. | ||
| Flag or battle flag controversy. | ||
| What? | ||
| You're on it, Lionel! | ||
| He's on it! | ||
| What Alex says about the globalists in terms of externalizing their plans, that's literally what they're doing. | ||
| That's just what he did! | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's perfect! | |
| We've already illustrated here this idea that they took... | ||
| We need to track down Lionel. | ||
| We took... | ||
| No way. | ||
| We need to find Lionel. | ||
| For a cross-country trip. | ||
| I want to know where he's at. | ||
| He wouldn't talk to us. | ||
| That's the dude. | ||
| That's the dude. | ||
| So, I mean, we've already shown this fake story about banning the American flag, going from an InfoWars video to an article on InfoWars to a link on Drudge to something that is reported on the Alex Jones show. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| That is creating fake outrage to confuse these dumb people. | ||
| Now, here's the bullshit part of it. | ||
| And there's always something to be outraged about. | ||
| Here's why Lionel's an asshole. | ||
| Because what he's talking about is people who are legitimately offended by... | ||
| In this case, the Confederate flag. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Which is denying people their feelings about the history of brutal racism. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So, that part is what he's really talking about when he said something, give people something to be mad about. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| It is a complete... | ||
| Perfect demonstration. | ||
| I wanted to bring this up earlier. | ||
| I can't remember which clip it was in. | ||
| But again, he's not wrong. | ||
| The American flag has the exact same history of brutal racism. | ||
| And even when we won the fucking war, it's not like racism stopped. | ||
| You're not wrong, but you're off on the wrong tangent. | ||
| You're off the wrong direction, I think. | ||
| What I'm saying is we need to ban the American flag, and I would sign your petition to that. | ||
| It's not about that. | ||
| Because that's not all that he's talking about. | ||
| He's talking about all of these identity politics kinds of things. | ||
| All of these ideas about trendies and men in dresses with mustaches. | ||
| All of this stuff is parceled within that and it is a perfect expression of this angry male privilege, white male privilege that Alex expresses. | ||
| Everything that is like... | ||
| Black Lives Matter. | ||
| It's like, why are you guys getting bogged down in this when we have globalists to deal with? | ||
| It's this idea that any time that you're pissed off about these things, it's divide and conquer strategies. | ||
| So if you care about the Confederate flag, or if you care about, because he even says, I don't remember which episode it was in, it might have been in one of the other ones I listened to and we're not covering, but he's talking about like, yeah, sure, cops shoot a black guy every week. | ||
| I see articles about them shooting white guys too. | ||
| You're not understanding. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Also, that's also bad. | |
| I'm against cops shooting white guys too. | ||
| You can be against both. | ||
| The point of the fact that cops are shooting black people is that that is... | ||
| Endemic. | ||
| That is something that has such a long history, and it is something that is so targeted and aggressive that it is paramount to me. | ||
| And I think that it definitely says more about your priorities when you're mad at people who are complaining about cops shooting black people because they aren't also mentioning the white people. | ||
| Hey, what if we had a Father's Day, huh? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Your Mother's Day, you know, it's always about celebrating women. | |
| Like, what if we had a white history month, huh? | ||
| What if we had a white history month? | ||
| Everybody be outraged, but nobody talks about that. | ||
| Nobody talks about that. | ||
| Yeah, it's missing the mark. | ||
| And as they frame it as... | ||
| Society is confused. | ||
| Society is being tricked by this divide and conquer game. | ||
| That's the way they can elevate themselves in the same way that Alex inoculates himself from that dog metaphor by saying, I'm not racist. | ||
| By being like, look, it's the globalists trying to divide and conquer. | ||
| You don't see it. | ||
| You're confused and dumb. | ||
| I'm not against your point. | ||
| I just think that it's so inconsequential compared to the issues that I... | ||
| A very smart white man have figured out. | ||
| You're whitesplaining. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It's very stupid. | ||
| It's a bummer. | ||
| It's so depressing. | ||
| Because it seems like... | ||
| And it's one of those things that comes up over and over and over again. | ||
| The idea that they're doing what we're doing. | ||
| So we can do it. | ||
| Like, this is just... | ||
| They're doing it, so we have to fight them. | ||
| Which justifies us doing it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And it's always the playbook. | ||
| Like, oh, they're playing the victim whenever they say that religious freedom is, you know, it's a terrible thing. | ||
| It's exactly what your... | ||
| Fuck you! | ||
| Like, I just want to... | ||
| That's why we're so great, is because we don't play that game. | ||
| I can't respond without screaming at these people. | ||
| No. | ||
| Because it's so frustratingly... | ||
| It's so... | ||
| It's very obvious, unless you have an agenda. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And when you have an agenda, it's obvious to you, but the reason you have that agenda is so you never really have to look at it. | ||
| So we have two more clips. | ||
| One is Lionel also being an asshole again. | ||
| And this gets into the world being run by bankers, which is conspicuously... | ||
| Not wrong. | ||
| I'm never going to ever let people understand that what and who runs the world are a very small group of central banks and very, very, at the top of the pyramid, these elite banksters and elite... | ||
| All there is is megabanks, big energy, and weapons. | ||
| This is Jews. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| You guys are being Jews. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| That's anti-Semitism. | ||
| But it's not... | ||
| When you say that banks are powerful, yes, they are, but they don't... | ||
| It's not wrong. | ||
| Like, they own... | ||
| Like, 62 people own more than the bottom half of the entire world. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Like, the bankers buy our politicians. | ||
| Like, they're purely bought. | ||
| But the 62 people that own all of the wealth aren't all... | ||
| No, they're not all getting together around a giant desk. | ||
| Some of them are like Mark Zuckerberg. | ||
| Some of them are people like that, or like Mark Cuban. | ||
| He has billions of dollars. | ||
| Fucking Mark Cuban. | ||
| Right, but they're not central bankers. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I hate the Mavericks. | |
| You understand? | ||
| That argument falls flat. | ||
| I agree with you in that bankers here is code for anti-Semitism. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| There's no doubt about that. | ||
| Especially banksters. | ||
| Yeah, this is purely do we not bleed, like Will Shakespeare. | ||
| It's that whole thing. | ||
| But at the same time, there is, again, this is an area where the kernel of truth is important. | ||
| Because, again, bankers are fucking everybody over. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That is a thing. | ||
| And they are colluding together. | ||
| I still will not side with Alex and his cohorts. | ||
| Because I know what they're saying. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| They're not saying the same things that you or I or someone... | ||
| Even though they're using the same words. | ||
| That's the problem I have. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| It's dog-whistly. | ||
| It can't be taken outside of the context of all of these other things that they do. | ||
| All of these other... | ||
| It's insane. | ||
| I understand that I keep bringing up... | ||
| The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. | ||
| And I intended to get way more into it in this episode than we have, but we just haven't. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We will. | |
| But, like, literally multiple things that he says directly mirror parts from that very debunked anti-Semitic book. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| It is clear that most of his philosophy comes from that. | ||
| And he also doesn't understand that it's anti-Semitism. | ||
| I think that is something that... | ||
| I think that is something where we waffle on. | ||
| It's most likely. | ||
| Because I don't think, I genuinely think he's more of an out-and-out white nationalist as opposed to an out-and-out anti-Semite. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| But the point I'm trying to make is that within that landscape, when you say something like the world is run by a small group of elite banksters, you can't say that. | ||
| And have Alex resoundingly agree with you without it being taken as part of that cosmology, part of that world and philosophy that he's built. | ||
| And anybody who listens to his show, whether they're consciously aware of where that philosophy comes from or not, they know that philosophy. | ||
| So when they hear stuff like this, where there is a kernel of truth, it helps them buy further into... | ||
| The part that's not true. | ||
| Agreed. | ||
| The part that is this evil, racist bullshit. | ||
| So that's bad. | ||
| Here's my kind of question, though. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Do you think we could ever co-opt that? | ||
| The protocols? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| So their anti-Semitism is still... | ||
| Targeted towards, though, that idea of the bankers who run the world. | ||
| Well, yeah. | ||
| Now. | ||
| That's a big part of it. | ||
| It is a big part of it. | ||
| There's more. | ||
| Now, there's absolutely more. | ||
| The whole fake media thing is a big part of it, too. | ||
| But if we could just deep-earth crystallize that into that idea, I think if we really did it smart... | ||
| I don't like where you're going. | ||
| Then... | ||
| We could, on one particular situation... | ||
| Utilize them as a kind of enemy of my enemy is my friend situation. | ||
| No, I think that would be like... | ||
| Could we unite with the conservative idiots? | ||
| No, that would be like funding Alcada, man. | ||
| It's just, it wouldn't work. | ||
| That's not wrong. | ||
| It just wouldn't work. | ||
| I know. | ||
| That problem with the poor alliance. | ||
| I could never align with Alex for any common cause that we have. | ||
| We would always be in disagreement. | ||
| Yeah, but you know, there's... | ||
| We fundamentally disagree. | ||
| I agree with you, but there is also that part of me that says we don't... | ||
| Make peace with our friends, we make peace with our enemies. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And this is one situation where... | ||
| God, because the conservative anger is towards... | ||
| Like, the Tea Party came out of the bailouts. | ||
| And Barack Obama being black. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Well, yeah. | ||
| But... | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| But their... | ||
| Again, their cover for it was, we're mad about the bailout, we're not mad about Obama. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Now, of course, they were mad about a black president, but I just have this hope! | ||
| You know why there's not? | ||
| It's the exact same thing. | ||
| That agreement about the bailouts, that agreement that we might have, can't actually be an agreement. | ||
| Because the reason that you have it is different than the reason that they have it. | ||
| The reasoning and what got you to the point that you're at, Doesn't exist in the same cosmology as how they got to where they're at. | ||
| And because of that, even if you seem to, on the surface, agree about an issue, you don't agree about that issue. | ||
| You absolutely don't. | ||
| Even if it is, I'm against the war in Iraq, you're against the war in Iraq. | ||
| Taking it back a few years. | ||
| Our reasons for it might be different. | ||
| And if my reason is... | ||
| I'm against this war. | ||
| It's based on false pretenses. | ||
| We have no reason to be there, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| And someone else's reason is, I'm against the war in Iraq because Saddam Hussein is really a lizard person who's under the sway of Jewish forces and he's a patsy for blah, blah, blah. | ||
| We don't really agree. | ||
| Now, granted, we both don't want tons of people to die, and that's good, but we can't really... | ||
| I think your analogy of us propping up Al-Qaeda is probably the best one. | ||
| Because the question there would be, could we do it, though? | ||
| Like, we don't agree on why. | ||
| But, say we actually can agree that we need to break up the banks. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| I'd sooner side with Bernie on that than Alec Jones. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Of course. | |
| No, no, no. | ||
| That's not what I'm saying. | ||
| I'm saying that I'm on the Bernie wing. | ||
| I don't know if you guys have ever listened to me talk, but my progressive politics borders on the IRA more than anything else. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're past Bernie. | |
| I'm way past Bernie. | ||
| Bernie's trying to catch up. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| But, like, it is that Al-Qaeda where I would love to be able to use that anger towards the banks, even though the deep-seated heart of it is anti-Semitism. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Could I use that anger and co-opt it to actually break up? | |
| My answer is no. | ||
| It wouldn't work. | ||
| You'd end up destroying yourself in the process. | ||
| Yeah, you're... | ||
| And then all of your principles go away in the same way that... | ||
| You're probably not wrong. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're probably not wrong, and it bums me out, but God, there is that part of me that still... | |
| That still thinks strategically that could actually cause that change. | ||
| I say sleep on it, and you'll realize in the morning it's impossible. | ||
| I know. | ||
| But, so we have one more clip. | ||
| And in this one, Lionel gives us a very nice visual, and that is Alex Jones being dead at some point in the future. | ||
| But he does it, unfortunately, in the context of really just kissing Alex's ass real hard. | ||
| And I actually think that this is a really dangerous line of thinking. | ||
| But, I don't know. | ||
| Away we go. | ||
| I'm going to then, as everybody is being distracted by the three-card Monty of the economic downturn, while we're looking this way, I'm going to little by little take everything from this country. | ||
| And then one day, before you know it, it's going to be, it'll start maybe with a rumbling, it'll start and we'll start to see the initial threads, the initial tremors of a financial collapse. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And the very people who run the world are... | |
| So thrilled because they crave and they thrive on disorder and disaster. | ||
| That's why when there's racial disharmony, when there's crime, when there's people in the streets, when we turn to the government in the Hegelian dialectic, this classic, wonderful production, and we say more control, more power, more authority. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Then one day, it's over. | |
| And your tombstone, your words, your final valedict reality, sad to say, will be, I told you so. | ||
| You thought I was just somebody who was a conspiracy theorist. | ||
| It's going to be too late. | ||
| You thought I was doing this just for some kind of an act. | ||
| You didn't realize that what I was saying and what the world was saying was there the whole time. | ||
| And you didn't listen to me. | ||
| And I told you. | ||
| And I tried to make it as simple as possible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I brought in guests to try to explain it in different ways. | |
| A Max Keiser, a Salente, a Paul Craig Roberts, a Wilson Watson. | ||
| And you tried so hard. | ||
| Yeah, he tried so hard. | ||
| No. | ||
| He didn't really. | ||
| God damn it. | ||
| I was so close. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| I was so close. | ||
| I mean, look, I hate that mentality of like... | ||
| One year dead, everyone will realize the shit has gone down and we should have listened to you. | ||
| That premature profit status kind of shit is really fucking dangerous because you're depending on an outcome and a status quo that doesn't exist and probably never will exist in order to justify whatever you're saying in the present. | ||
| I mean, it's a classic logical fallacy and it's just reinforcing Alex's need to sell iodine and shit. | ||
| And it helps him. | ||
| And actually, immediately after that clip, Alex is like, wow, Lionel, this is the best interview we've ever had. | ||
| Like, of course, he just kissed your ass. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Like, of course. | ||
| So, let's look at this. | ||
| We took a time-traveling trip here back to 2015. | ||
| Right. | ||
| The things that were mostly talked about were globalists going to destroy us. | ||
| They haven't yet. | ||
| Lionel accidentally spills Trump's game plan. | ||
| And he's a little prophetic. | ||
| He's a little prophetic accidentally. | ||
| He did not realize that was going to be his belief system that was going to bring that about. | ||
| But then the other three major things that were discussed were the American flag being banned, which is fake news. | ||
| And also, it hasn't happened. | ||
| Two years later, it hasn't happened. | ||
| And even their outside Mark Dice interview was basically, it's not going to happen. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Greece's economy is doing better. | ||
| They're not all the way back, but they're in recovery. | ||
| They're still getting fucked in the face. | ||
| But they're in recovery. | ||
| They're good signs, and the economy has been improving. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Tentatively. | ||
| Right, but you understand that this whole argument that they're making of it's part of a pre-planned downslide. | ||
| Blah, blah, blah. | ||
| It's a... | ||
| Oh, well, absolutely, but I never... | ||
| It's a demolition. | ||
| I'm just trying to say that everything that they talked about in this is bunk. | ||
| Everything is bogus. | ||
| The kernels of truth are there in terms of, like, yeah, these, you know, banks are shitty. | ||
| That sort of stuff, yes, absolutely. | ||
| But all of the other stuff is absolutely not true. | ||
| These planned collapse of Greece has not happened, and it's on the upswing. | ||
| It's back. | ||
| It's coming back. | ||
| It'll take a while, but it's coming back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| And if they would get the IMF to quit enforcing the austerity measures, maybe it would come back a little bit faster. | ||
| Possibly. | ||
| Beyond that, there was that family who had their kid taken away from playing basketball, they got their kid back. | ||
| Maybe they were, and also maybe they weren't being neglectful, but maybe that also wasn't necessarily a nosy neighbor. | ||
| No, it was a nosy neighbor. | ||
| No, that's what I'm saying. | ||
| Oh, yeah, yeah. | ||
| It wasn't a globalist. | ||
| It wasn't a situation where somebody saw a dog in a hot car and broke it out. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because that was a recipe for the dog dying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| It was a situation where there was a crack in the window and you're like, maybe that's not a big enough crack. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| That kind of thing. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, possibly. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I mean, then again, mind your business. | ||
| That was a great metaphor. | ||
| Yeah, it was good. | ||
| It was like a hundred black windows. | ||
| Be thrown into a hot dog car. | ||
| So, if you have a hot dog car and someone throws Black Widows into it... | ||
| Greece will implode. | ||
| That's a true fact. | ||
| I think we've already proved that one. | ||
| It's unfortunate. | ||
| He didn't talk at all throughout the episode about gay marriage. | ||
| Which was the main event. | ||
| Legalized by the Supreme Court nationwide. | ||
| I think the one thing that I take away from this time travel episode is before he hitched himself to the Trump train. | ||
| He didn't have to do as much mental gymnastics and he didn't have to make up as much. | ||
| I think that's true. | ||
| So while he, like, before that... | ||
| Without supporting anybody. | ||
| Because he's not coming out and supporting a person saying dumbass shit. | ||
| He's just anti-globalist. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| He's just in a nebulous place where he can pick and choose whatever facts he wants to spiral out of. | ||
| Yeah, and he's attacking a group that doesn't really exist. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| So he can make up whatever he wants and no one can ever prove him wrong. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But now with his Trump fixation and connection... | ||
| He doesn't have a choice but to make things up whole cloth because Trump, frankly, disagrees with him on everything. | ||
| Well, I would say this. | ||
| Here's how I would describe it. | ||
| And I think that this might bear true throughout our future time travel episodes, which if you donate $10 or more a month, we'll do a date for you. | ||
| Perfect. | ||
| That was a perfect transition, my friend. | ||
| But what I will say is I think that before... | ||
| He hitched his wagon to Trump. | ||
| There were bad days when he is like he is now. | ||
| Yeah, that's probably true. | ||
| There were bad days when he would freak out and he would just be yelling about shit. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But now, there are no more good days. | ||
| No. | ||
| He is all bad days now. | ||
| And it is just... | ||
| We're spoiled by current Alex, quite frankly. | ||
| Because this is mostly low register Alex. | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| This isn't like... | ||
| It's still wackadoo. | ||
| It's crazy, but it's like Al Pacino. | ||
| You want him screaming. | ||
| You don't want him just being crazy. | ||
| You don't want that version. | ||
| And that's kind of what a lot of this day was. | ||
| You don't want good actor Al Pacino. | ||
| You don't want heat Al Pacino. | ||
| You want scent of a woman Al Pacino. | ||
| Devil's advocate Al Pacino. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, fuck yes, devil's advocate Al Pacino. | |
| So anyway, thank you, Jan, for donating. | ||
| We really appreciate it. | ||
| Thank you very much, Jan. | ||
| I'm going to do something crazy. | ||
| I've never done this before. | ||
| I am going to plug a show. | ||
| Now, the fact... | ||
| I almost coughed. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You spit it. | |
| I did cough. | ||
| Now... | ||
| This fact that I've never done this before may be why I am not a very successful comedian. | ||
| Hopefully this will be so uncomfortable you'll never do it again. | ||
| Oh, it's brutal. | ||
| No, the only reason I'm plugging it is... | ||
| The globalists are going to come find you at this show. | ||
| You know that. | ||
| That's probably true. | ||
| They're going to take you out. | ||
| It's about time. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| No, the only reason I'm plugging it, it's at the Whip Theater. | ||
| It's whiptheater.com. | ||
| It's this Saturday. | ||
| Or Saturday, May. | ||
| This is why I'm bad at this. | ||
| Terrible. | ||
| Oh, brutal. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fuck it. | |
| I don't care what day it is. | ||
| I don't care what fucking day it is. | ||
| Maybe it's the 6th. | ||
| Maybe it's the 7th. | ||
| Not important. | ||
| Holy shit. | ||
| It's Saturday. | ||
| What day is today? | ||
| Today's Tuesday. | ||
| The 2nd. | ||
| So it's the 7th. | ||
| It's at the Whip Theater. | ||
| It's 10 o 'clock. | ||
| The only reason I'm plugging it is because Timmy Witzel... | ||
| Owns, runs, and does everything for this theater. | ||
| Cool dude. | ||
| And I just want him to be as successful as possible. | ||
| I will be there. | ||
| One of my old podcasting co-hosts. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| I will be doing actual stand-up. | ||
| And I'll talk for a while. | ||
| So if you want to find out what I'm like when I'm not screaming into a microphone and instead screaming into a different microphone. | ||
| See if you can give me a guess so I can talk about globalism. | ||
| Yeah, actually, yeah. | ||
| If you want to come out and meet... | ||
| Wait, I can't, actually, because I will be... | ||
| You're going to be doing that... | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| Well, then, yeah, if you can come out, we'll do that. | ||
| And then you can meet the both of us. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But who gives a shit? | ||
| Actually, you know what's going to wind up happening? | ||
| We're going to edit this entire plug out because it has taken eight and a half hours. | ||
| I won't. | ||
| You can catch us at knowledgefight.com. | ||
| You can. | ||
| We're at knowledge underscore fight on Twitter. | ||
| That's correct. | ||
| And you can find us on iTunes. | ||
| You can find us everywhere. | ||
| That's not good. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| You can email us if you like at knowledgefight at gmail dot com. | ||
| And if you'd like to become a policy wonk. | ||
| You can. | ||
| Donate if you'd like to do a time travel episode. | ||
| You can do that. | ||
| We might have some shirts coming in the future. | ||
| Big shout out to our friend Chris. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| Designing some awesome designs. | ||
| Also, there's a... | ||
| I got so many plans. | ||
| That's it? | ||
| That's your... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey! | |
| Guys. | ||
| That's my plug. | ||
| I got so many plans. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And then I stare off out the window behind you. | ||
| You stared into the middle distance for some reason. | ||
| Like I'm fucking Mark Dice. | ||
| What am I doing? | ||
| Oh my god. | ||
| Anyways, guys, let me ask you a question. | ||
| What's up? | ||
| If the people who donate are policy wonks, does that make us? | ||
| Like, what would that make us? | ||
| We're also policy wonks. | ||
| Are we a couple of policy wonks? | ||
| We are. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Andy in Kansas, you're on the air. | ||
| Thanks for holding. | ||
