Today, Dan and Jordan discuss some curious thematic similarities between the broadcasts Alex Jones did during the Kavanaugh confirmation vote and during the 2016 election. While both were ostensibly about a major political event, each was really about celebrating cruelty and spouting closed-minded nonsense.

Hello, Alex. | |
| I'm a first-time caller. | ||
| I'm a huge fan. | ||
| I love your work. | ||
| I love you. | ||
| Hey, everybody. | ||
| Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. | ||
| I'm Dan. | ||
| I'm Jordan. | ||
| We're a couple dudes like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. | ||
| Indeed we are. | ||
| Dan? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Dan? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| When was the last time you went outside? | ||
| Well, last time I went outside. | ||
| Earlier today, I went down to the store, tried to get some vape cartridges, got my card declined, had a great time. | ||
| Life is wonderful. | ||
| It was a good day. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| You? | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't even want to tell you. | |
| Coming over here from work on the fucking train. | ||
| Fucking everything sucks. | ||
| It's not great. | ||
| Going to work sucks. | ||
| Everything sucks. | ||
| But hopefully this won't. | ||
| Hey, everybody out there, hello. | ||
| Welcome back to the show. | ||
| This is a show where I know a lot about Alex Jones. | ||
| And I only know what you tell me about Alex Jones. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| So, hey, sorry we didn't have an episode on Monday. | ||
| There were some technical issues, some personnel issues. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, is that what we would call them? | |
| We had an episode before Monday, but we recorded it on Saturday immediately. | ||
| Immediately following Brett Kavanaugh's sham existence and revealing that the Supreme Court is non-existent anymore as a check on any sort of executive power. | ||
| And we split a bottle of whiskey. | ||
| We may have gotten a little bit too fucked up. | ||
| We had a great first... | ||
| 45 minutes, I would say. | ||
| Perhaps. | ||
| But then, even beyond that, too, there were technical issues that I just was not keeping track of because of. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| I was also dropping the ball as an engineer. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But when I listened back to it, I thought about the possibility of, like, maybe we can put this out. | ||
| But there was something that wasn't quite right. | ||
| So on that episode, we covered Alex's live stream of Kavanaugh's confirmation hearing. | ||
| Not the hearing, I guess, the vote, as it were. | ||
| And there was something that just wasn't quite right. | ||
| There was an element that was missing. | ||
| And so today what we're going to be doing is going over what I believe is the element that was missing of that while covering the important points of Alex's live stream of Kavanaugh's vote. | ||
| As it were. | ||
| I know that's a little bit complicated, a little convoluted maybe to understand off the top. | ||
| I promise things will make sense as we go along and you will see what that je ne sais quoi was that was missing from our original. | ||
| But it's one of those things that on our show it's kind of difficult to cover immediate news. | ||
| Because of just the time constraints and the contextualization that needs to be done, the pulling pieces from others. | ||
| If we rush things sometimes, I think that we miss elements, and that's something I hope to correct here. | ||
| Yeah, that's why we don't do a news show. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| It's hard. | ||
| And we have nothing but respect for those that do. | ||
| Do we? | ||
| I have nothing but respect for a couple of new donors. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey! | |
| That's a great transition, Dan. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So today, Jordan, I'd like to say thank you to a couple of new people who have signed up with the team. | ||
| First of all, I'd like to say thank you so much, Stella. | ||
| You are now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you, Stella. | ||
| Thank you very much, Stella. | ||
| And for anyone else who would like to... | ||
| See a groove return? | ||
| Please donate to the show. | ||
| Yeah, that's how you get your groove back. | ||
| Angela Bassett also supports the show. | ||

Does she? | |
| Nope. | ||
| Morris Chestnut does. | ||
| Morris Day and the Time do. | ||
| Forrest Whitaker does. | ||
| I believe it. | ||
| No, he directed Waiting to Exhale. | ||
| No, actually, it's the last king of Scotland who does. | ||
| He's less fun than Forrest Whitaker. | ||
| Also, I'd like to say thank you so much to Aaron. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| We're now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much, Aaron. | ||
| Also, one last person to give a shout-out to, someone who took their donation and bumped it up. | ||
| We appreciate it oh so very much. | ||

|
Yeah. | |
| All of the above. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Anyway, we appreciate it. | ||
| So, Jordan, today I'm going to walk you through this. | ||
| It's going to be confusing, probably. | ||
| It's going to be slightly non-linear, but it all makes sense when the bow is wrapped towards the end, I think, hopefully. | ||
| We'll find out. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| Anyway, here's an out-of-context drop from some of the stuff we're going to be going over today. | ||
| In what world do you want what someone else has got unless it's a gorgeous broad? | ||
| Yeah, alright. | ||
| See, now this is why we can't release our drunk episode, alright? | ||
| Listen to that shit. | ||
| You don't want a Monday episode from us that sounds like a whatever episode from him. | ||
| I'll tell you we did not sound like that. | ||
| And we weren't talking about, hey, isn't it cool to steal someone's very attractive broad? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't remember. | ||
| We could have been! | ||
| We were. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| We were not. | ||
| Good! | ||
| So, Jordan, today what we're going to be doing primarily is looking at some of the harsh parallels between the day that Alex Jones celebrated on air, on his live stream, the confirmation of Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, and some of his celebration from the 2016 election night. | ||
| I went back and I tried to find the entire video of Alex Jones on election night. | ||
| So he did a 52 hour live stream. | ||
| Sure, great. | ||
| That's too long. | ||
| That's like 3 hours of Alex and 49 hours of his underlings filling in and being terrible. | ||
| But I couldn't find some of the really, really toxic stuff. | ||
| Because Alex's YouTube channel is gone. | ||
| Oh yeah, that is an issue, isn't it? | ||
| So most of the videos that he had uploaded have all... | ||
| Wars coverage of election night ends right after Trump gives his victory speech. | ||
| But that's not when the show ended. | ||
| Right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The show kept going and everyone was celebrating. | |
| And a lot of the stuff that I've discussed about the idea of them watching videos of Hillary supporters crying and stuff like that is from that. | ||
| So thankfully, I didn't have to rewatch that stuff necessarily. | ||
| That stuff towards the end of the night where... | ||
| It became clear what the game was. | ||
| But going back and listening to a lot of that election night stuff, I realized that's the missing piece of this. | ||
| Seeing the parallels between these two very major celebrations that Alex has had, I think give us the key that we need to unlock what he's really talking about in some circumstances. | ||
| That's interesting that people who would keep those clips would end it at the election, like would end it at the announcement. | ||
| Right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because that is like, we're ending it at the end of America, but they forgot to watch the beginning of a cruel, cruel, cruel replacement. | |
| It's far more important to see the world that we are going to become within 10 minutes of the world we were ending. | ||
| The only thing that remains is a video that you can find on Paul Joseph Watson's YouTube channel, because that one didn't get taken down. | ||
| I don't know why. | ||
| How is that possible? | ||
| Not sure. | ||
| But there is a video that he has about, like, oh, look at these crybaby Hillary fans. | ||
| And so there is a lot of video on there of... | ||
| You know, the same video that they were mocking in studio on election night with, like, wah sound effects of it interspersed with pictures of crying babies and stuff like that. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| So you get the sense of it, and I rewatch that, and I'm like, oh, okay, this is bringing back some of that. | ||
| But it's not good for our purposes, because it's not the same audio of them in the studio. | ||
| It's just a Paul Joseph Watson report. | ||
| So we're going to start here with, from, this clip is from the Kavanaugh. | ||
| Confirmation stream where Alex sort of lays out my thesis for you. | ||
| So Infowars listeners, split screen please. | ||
| They're almost done. | ||
| This is your victory, America. | ||
| It's just like election night 20 months ago. | ||
| The Democrats are crapping their drawers. | ||
| This is the first trigger. | ||
| The next is when we win in a landslide with a red wave in 30 days. | ||
| Unless their election fraud defeats us, we are going to win. | ||
| This is a political realignment against real tyranny. | ||
| So, he made the comparison for us. | ||
| This is like election night. | ||
| Now, one of the things that's really interesting in that clip is that he is making the preemptive excuse for the midterms that if their cheating works, then it'll stop our next phase of this great triggering or whatever he wants to call it. | ||
| Now, that's interesting. | ||
| Because I went back, and at the beginning of Alex's stream, he didn't think Trump was going to win. | ||
| Even on election day, he didn't think Trump was going to win. | ||
| Listen to this shit. | ||
| But I look at how Christians in the West ended slavery, tried to end sexism, and tried to build everybody up, and the very people we tried to build up just role reversed with the Christians who tried to end all the tyranny. | ||
| And they reversed and said, you're the slave now. | ||
| You're the subhuman. | ||
| You're the reason there's problems. | ||
| You're the white male. | ||
| You're the Christian. | ||
| And we're just standing here going, I just wanted freedom. | ||
| They say, it's over. | ||
| I'll Hitler. | ||
| And blow you away. | ||
| As they destroy the West. | ||
| Right out of the fucking gate, Dan! | ||
| It's like a atomic spaceship. | ||
| Right out of the fucking gate! | ||
| On the planet. | ||
| That creates the science, the technology, the wealth, that cares about people, that wants to build. | ||
| No one else does. | ||
| It's all barbarism and be for yourself and it's all gone. | ||
| And I'm not going to prey on you, but I've got to pull back. | ||
| I've got to isolate myself and just let you kill yourself. | ||
| I've got to, okay, you want squalor and death? | ||
| I'm sorry the vampires will now have you. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| So you see there at the end, I'm sorry, the vampires are now going to have you, because he's preemptively, emotionally preparing the narrative to be, Clinton is going to win. | ||
| And at the beginning, I should have prepared you for that in some way. | ||
| Nah, nah, Dan. | ||
| Nah, Dan. | ||
| Go ahead and email me that clip so I can play it during my fucking hanging of myself. | ||
| Christ. | ||
| If anybody fucking tells me that white Christian males are the ones who wanted to free us, I want to fucking kill myself. | ||
| They only wanted freedom for everybody. | ||
| Is murder-suicide a crime? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not for me. | ||
| It's two of them. | ||
| They wanted freedom, and so they worked to help women be equal, and they got rid of slavery because they are so great. | ||
| Christians! | ||
| Christians did it! | ||
| But then the people that they tried to uplift, which Alex is talking specifically about minorities and women that support Hillary Clinton, have turned around and are now trying to... | ||
| They flipped the script on the great Christian men who are a spaceship in society. | ||
| All the rest of the world is barbarism. | ||
| Only white Christian men are really the people who, you know, they want to go around and create society. | ||
| They want to build things. | ||
| This is nuts. | ||
| There's no way to be like, well, actually, and then read a history book to that. | ||
| That is a man who, that's, life is meaningless. | ||
| Life is meaningless to him beyond being white Christian male. | ||
| And I, what do you, why? | ||
| Why are we bothering with these people? | ||
| Well, now you even see in that clip how important the victim-ness is to that identity that he has of the white Christian male. | ||
| He has to package it within the idea of, like, we tried to help you so much and now you've turned on us. | ||
| Why would you do that? | ||
| You guys are the bad guys. | ||
| I really, really have changed, Dan. | ||
| From the beginning of this podcast to now. | ||
| You mean the last five minutes? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| From where we were. | ||
| This is what I'm saying. | ||
| I'm not saying why are we bothering with these people. | ||
| I'm saying why are we reading, oh, here's what Trump people think. | ||
| You know what Trump people think. | ||
| Being white is great. | ||
| Every profile of a Trump voter should just be like, hey, you know how great being white is? | ||
| These people think it is. | ||
| So Alex isn't making a lot of sense there. | ||
| Pretty dumb. | ||
| About white Christian males and what have you. | ||
| But... | ||
| He goes on to say a few more things. | ||
| This is still from his live stream on the election day, and he has some more really stupid things to say within the context, again, of him believing that Trump isn't going to win. | ||
| I'm sorry the vampires will now have you. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| It's what you wanted. | ||
| I'm sorry you won't get tax cuts, you won't get prosperity, but you'll get CNN and NPR telling you how you're in charge, and you'll drive around in your car in a fantasy. | ||
| That you're in charge until you're about 40 as a woman, and then they'll try to find a man, and men won't want to be with you because they're scared that they were never made to be men. | ||
| They don't want a commitment. | ||
| Plus, you don't want one either, so you'll just be all alone. | ||
| It won't matter. | ||
| Then you'll become old and worship the state, and your body will be put into liquid acid and dissolved for fertilizer to grow the elite crops. | ||
| And you never existed. | ||
| Your entire genetic line, all your ancestors will die with you. | ||
| But you weren't the villain. | ||
| You were just the species of women being killed. | ||
| So, this grave marker for your death and the Xeno side of the planet will be your victory as you die full of morphine, worshipping Satan. | ||
| And so, it's kind of true perception is reality for the slave. | ||
| That you never existed. | ||
| And you took the Renaissance, and you threw it away, and you attacked your own species, and you joined with the corporate state and the lies. | ||
| You worship Al-Qaeda, you worship ISIS, you worship burqas, you worship anything destructive of the West. | ||
| Because the West is such a beautiful goddess, you were ashamed of yourself, beholding. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| That's a little silly. | ||
| Does he know what xenocide means? | ||
| I got distracted by all of that. | ||
| Look. | ||
| Whatever he said. | ||
| Whiteness is great. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
| That's more maleness. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
| You have fun. | ||
| That's more like, hey, you women are stupid. | ||
| You should be breeding young. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| You should be prioritizing getting with a good Western man. | ||
| Oh, because when you're 40, they're not going to want to be with you. | ||
| That makes sense. | ||
| No, and then you'll be so haggard and all the men who will be around who will be available for you cucks anyway. | ||
| So then you'll get into serving the state and then they'll dip you in acid. | ||
| And that's when the Muslims... | ||
| Let's take over the West. | ||
| Done. | ||
| But, like, for real, does he know what xenocide means? | ||
| I'm not sure I do. | ||
| Look, I mean, it literally means the genocide of aliens. | ||
| It does? | ||
| Xenocide. | ||
| Oh, xenomorph? | ||
| That makes sense. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| So even while he's saying, like, the xenocide of Earth, that either suggests that we're working with aliens to get rid of humans, or... | ||
| We're fighting against aliens, or maybe all people who aren't white people are aliens. | ||
| All non-white people are aliens. | ||
| I think he believes the globalists are working with aliens for sure, and he sees himself as fighting against aliens, so that word might actually be appropriate in the goofiest way. | ||
| I think white males maybe are aliens. | ||
| Like, maybe we're not from here. | ||
| Maybe we're not even supposed to be here. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Maybe we're not. | ||
| Let's get a summer home. | ||
| Let's all get a summer home. | ||
| Put on Venus? | ||
| No, we can't live on Venus. | ||
| Mars? | ||
| Can't live on Mars. | ||
| Where else you got? | ||
| I think that's a great place for white males to be. | ||
| Inside the moon? | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| Hollow it out. | ||
| Hollow it out, put them all in there, keep them safe and warm. | ||
| Okay, that's one possibility. | ||
| Put a little glass cage over it so we can go and visit every now and again and be like, hey, look at you guys, how you doing down there? | ||
| Oh, how's your renaissance going? | ||
| You guys are doing great! | ||
| You're so cute! | ||
| I think another possibility it wouldn't involve space colonies. | ||
| I want a space colony, Dan! | ||
| It might just involve empathy and people growing up a little bit. | ||
| Right, and when they learn that... | ||
| But the odds of that seem lower. | ||
| When they learn that, they can come back! | ||
| All right, all right. | ||
| Fair enough. | ||
| As long as there's an escape clause to the space colony you're creating. | ||
| Yeah, oh no, absolutely. | ||
| It's a rehabilitation colony. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| You know how when you have a certain group of people that you need to take to a place... | ||
| Where they're separated from... | ||
| It's like a... | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
| Now I know what it is. | ||
| Never mind. | ||
| It sounds like you're drifting so far left, you're ending up in another fashion. | ||
| Now I'm getting what that kind of sounds like, and I don't think it's a good thing. | ||
| I mean, it's not all bad. | ||
| It's not all bad. | ||
| It's not a good thing. | ||
| All right. | ||
| All right. | ||
| There are degrees, Dan. | ||
| So it's interesting here to hear that on the election day in 2016, Alex was pretty, you know, emotionally prepared for Trump to lose. | ||
| And in preparation for that, he's doing all this like, oh, you idiots, you've destroyed the West because you women are harpies and... | ||
| Oh, you blacks, us white Christians, rose out of slavery. | ||
| Oh, you've turned on us. | ||
| Yeah, we saved you! | ||
| You've turned on us. | ||
| How do you not realize that we ended slavery? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Come on! | ||
| Right, yeah. | ||
| Give us credit for that, at least! | ||
| So, Alex is in that place, and it's super weird that as the day goes on and it becomes more clear that Trump is going to win, he changes over the course of it a little bit. | ||
| But... | ||
| Something that I find supremely interesting is that there are a couple of direct parallels, linguistically and stylistically, between the Kavanaugh confirmation stream and the election 2016 stream. | ||
| Here's the first of them. | ||
| This is from the Kavanaugh hearing. | ||
| This will be a day long remembered. | ||
| We've seen the end. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hillary Clinton will soon see the end of George Soros. | |
| I apologize. | ||
| That was from 2016, the election day. | ||
| This is from the Kavanaugh. | ||
| This will be a day long remembered. | ||
| We've seen the end of Hillary. | ||
| We'll soon see the end of Soros. | ||
| You need a writer, dude. | ||
| You can hear a pin drop. | ||
| We've paid a lot for this, though, folks. | ||
| And it isn't perfect, but at least they won't take the guns and... | ||
| Force our kids to change their sexual gender. | ||
| That's their mission. | ||
| Total human domination of biological operations. | ||
| So the only difference is it gets a little bit more specific. | ||
| I mean, he's right. | ||
| The Kochs have probably paid at least $1.2 billion on this, so it was pretty expensive. | ||
| Right, but I don't think that they're fighting back against Soros wanting to make your kids trans or something like that. | ||
| We don't know. | ||
| When was the last time the Koch brothers gave an interview? | ||
| That's a good question. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It's been a long time, I think. | ||
| See, there we go. | ||
| I don't know what they're imagining they're fighting back against, but I'm talking about what more of the real world thing they're fighting back against is women's rights, climate change, unions, those sorts of things. | ||
| Hey, you know, you really got to fight back against climate change. | ||
| I mean, you got to fight back against doing anything about climate change. | ||
| You got to make sure that, like, I don't know. | ||
| A decade from now, only you and your rich pals will have sources of fresh water. | ||
| I think that's a smart idea. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Because it's going to happen anyways. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, you might as well consolidate your water now. | ||
| All that is is a preemptive economic maneuver. | ||
| Oh yeah, no, it's a great idea. | ||
| Very smart. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So, that is super interesting to me that we hear, in both cases, him doing his Vader voice, and he's saying the exact same thing. | ||
| We've seen the end of Clinton, we'll soon see the end of George Soros. | ||
| That's wild. | ||
| That alone is kind of like, huh. | ||
| Because I don't hear him say that a lot. | ||
| He does the Vader voice a lot, or the Emperor Palpatine. | ||
| You have done well, Lord Vader. | ||
| He does that a lot, but I don't hear him say those specific words that often. | ||
| It's interesting that... | ||
| Wait, isn't that supposed to be Churchill? | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| I think that's Star Wars. | ||
| That's Star Wars shit, man. | ||
| No, today is a day that will be long remembered. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Maybe it is, but it's way too close to his Palpatine for me to think it's... | ||
| Well, some of the times... | ||
| I've also heard his Churchill, and that's not close to his Churchill. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, okay. | |
| Fair enough. | ||
| Sorry, they all just kind of blend together. | ||
| He does mix metaphors and characters, so, I mean, who knows. | ||
| So that's one linguistic similarity. | ||
| And then here's another one that he uses that's very, very specific. | ||
| I want to salute you all. | ||
| I drug my ass up 25 years ago as a high school graduate. | ||
| They were trying to ban guns in Texas, semi-autos, and I decided I'd kick their ass, because I looked at my enemy, and they were bug-eyed pussies. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's a fun mental image. | |
| Because big jackass crews of wimps get together and they think they can piss on people. | ||
| What he seems to be offended by... | ||
| Are you sure it's not the bug-eyed pussies who want to pee on people? | ||
| That makes more sense. | ||
| Big old groups of crooks. | ||
| You get the urethra right in the bug-eyed nose, that's where you go. | ||
| It's possible. | ||
| But he uses that, what he seems to be so offended by or put off by is the idea that these groups go around and they want to piss all over everybody. | ||
| So that was from the 2016 election stream. | ||
| Here is him on the Kavanaugh vote day. | ||
| The Democrats remember the last hundred years when America was asleep. | ||
| And they just keep thinking, God, we had them dominated. | ||
| We were beating the hell out of them. | ||
| We were asleep. | ||
| We weren't awake. | ||
| You weren't intimidating us. | ||
| Now that we're awake and you're, like, slapping us and pissing on our face and trying to destroy our families, all you've got us doing is 24 hours a day thinking about how we get, politically, our arms around your neck. | ||
| So he's, again, constantly obsessed with the idea that people are peeing on him. | ||
| He seems to think that is the way he expresses... | ||
| People doing him wrong. | ||
| They pee on him. | ||
| Well, I mean, yeah, but that's a taboo that I'm sure he can enjoy. | ||
| You know, that's how a lot of people get out some of the things that they're afraid of, you know? | ||
| You turn it into a sexual pleasure thing. | ||
| I've seen documentaries. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| No, I get it. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Is that the theory you're going with? | ||
| Yeah, I'm going to go with Alex Jones likes to get peed on. | ||
| And that's why he's so unhappy with... | ||
| This is not a kink-shaming podcast, Chris. | ||
| Exactly! | ||
| I'm just saying that I don't think we should be cruel or mean. | ||
| I think you should very joyfully, if you see Alex Jones in the street, ask him politely if he would like you to pee on him. | ||
| I think that that's probably a good resolution. | ||
| I think that's a good idea! | ||
| I think all of our New Year's resolutions should be offered to pee on Alex. | ||
| If Alex Jones is anywhere new, you just be like, hey man, I know what's up. | ||
| Do you want me to pee on you? | ||
| We're having a good night. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe? | |
| Everybody's having fun here. | ||
| Yeah, you want me to pee on you? | ||
| Yeah, let me just pee on you a little bit. | ||
| With your consent, of course. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| So that aside, one of the interesting things, I think, is to look at stakes and look at what Alex is presenting to the world as what is going to happen in various... | ||
| So here is a clip from the 2016 election day where he's talking about... | ||
| So you know how, if you recall that day, it appeared that Trump was going to win and Hillary didn't immediately concede. | ||
| A little bit later in the night, she called Trump and conceded and Trump gave his speech. | ||
| Ugh, gross. | ||
| She didn't give a speech until the morning. | ||
| But Alex, in the intervening period, is convinced that she's not going to concede and it's war. | ||
| So, he comes up with this theory that Trump needs to immediately come out and give a speech declaring himself the winner because possession is nine-tenths of the law, which he says twice, which doesn't make any sense. | ||
| But he has this idea that if he can get Trump to give this speech announcing that he's won, Hillary can't undo that. | ||
| Or something like that. | ||
| Yeah, no, that's in the law. | ||
| Don't you remember that? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| It's the law of dibs. | ||
| I believe that's the dibs law. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Not at all something that an unelected ruler might do as a trick. | ||
| Hey, and frankly, I'm sure there's... | ||
| As a power grab ploy. | ||
| I'm sure there's a case right now being litigated in the lower courts that's gonna make it all the way up to the Supreme Court. | ||
| Kavanaugh is gonna be the deciding vote on... | ||
| Dibs are real, and as long as you say you're president, you're president. | ||
| Seatback is going to be, like, that's going to be in the Constitution. | ||
| Dude, no backsies? | ||
| That is going to be a crime. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Backsies is totally going to be a crime. | ||
| So it's kind of weird and very stupid, and Alex keeps trying to get Roger Stone to call Steve Bannon and tell him to give the speech already. | ||
| Like, that sort of thing. | ||
| It's very weird. | ||
| But here is Alex expressing some of his fears about what could happen if Trump doesn't declare himself the winner. | ||
| I don't mean to interrupt you, but CNN's reporting continue. | ||
| Clinton will not speak tonight. | ||
| This is officially from a Democratic operative, Axelrod, on the Clinton News Network. | ||
| So, the Clinton News Network has said they will not concede Trump must now immediately come out and say he is the winner or she will have Obama launch a nuclear war tomorrow. | ||
| And by the way, I've got a bad feeling. | ||
| I'm not saying that for effect. | ||
| People know I don't play games, okay? | ||
| There's one thing. | ||
| I don't play games. | ||
| People better get that through their heads. | ||
| He only plays games. | ||
| But you have there, if he doesn't give his speech, she is going to have Obama go nuke somebody in order to make sure that he doesn't become president, I guess, or something along those lines. | ||
| Who's he going to nuke? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It's unclear. | ||
| I think at another point he says that she's going to nuke Russia, probably. | ||
| But who cares? | ||
| Eh. | ||
| So, now, if you were to nuke somebody, that would be... | ||
| A lot of deaths, certainly. | ||
| It'd be a ton. | ||
| That's a great song title, though. | ||
| What? | ||
| If you're going to nuke somebody, that's going to be a lot of deaths? | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Especially with the uh in there. | ||
| No, but we make it like a slow jam. | ||
| We make it like a dire straight song. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| We spread it out. | ||
| There's some nice guitar licks in there. | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| Like the Sultans of Swing. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| You get it going. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| I'm into it. | ||
| Let's do that. | ||
| End this podcast and write that song. | ||
| Let's record it. | ||
| Let's write that song. | ||
| So that would cause a lot of deaths, undoubtedly. | ||
| It would be a bunch. | ||
| It would be a whole bunch. | ||
| That's his real negative view of what the globalists are going to do. | ||
| So that makes it really weird to hear Alex say something like this on the day that Kavanaugh gets into the Supreme Court, describing his best-case scenario of what is going to happen now that the patriots are in charge of everything. | ||
| So there is a path. | ||
| If we take it, because God gives us free will, that has limited problems. | ||
| Still some big wars, billions dead, but limited. | ||
| Believe me, compared to the other futures. | ||
| Space-time continuum. | ||
| Which I have seen. | ||
| Swimming. | ||
| Because again, I am a psychic and I have said that multiple times. | ||
| There is a vision towards a real victory and a future. | ||
| And it's limited, but it's like... | ||
| Taking a rifle and not thinking about it and shooting bullseye 200 yards, open sight. | ||
| She's like, you didn't think about it? | ||
| Pow, pow, pow! | ||
| You shot three rounds in a bullseye. | ||
| Try it again for a year, you can't do it. | ||
| You've got to just decide you want it spiritually. | ||
| You'll have it. | ||
| Or there's other paths. | ||
| And I want to demoralize the enemy by telling them the truth right now, giving them a big secret, which they don't have next-level vision. | ||
| and that's why they're so pissed at me and others. | ||
|
unidentified
|
In about 95% of... | |
| Possible futures, we win. | ||
| Now, there's the horror of realizing how many people get lost in the way to that, and if they do succeed, what it would be like. | ||
| So, his nightmare scenario on election night is Hillary's going to nuke someone to make sure Trump doesn't become president. | ||
| That would be less deaths than multiple billions of people dying, which he's then describing in more present day as being The best case scenario for his movement surviving and winning. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's what a fascist thinks. | |
| Sure. | ||
| That's exactly what a fascist thinks. | ||
| It's going to be a lot of death. | ||
| Listen, we're going to win. | ||
| 95% chance of all futures. | ||
| Look, the best way for you to do that, the way that... | ||
| You know, results in the least violence is if you just let us win now. | ||
| Otherwise, we're going to have to do some of those other 95% futures, wherein, I'm just saying, if you're dissenting, I mean, we're going to win, and maybe if you're in the way, you know, I mean, a few billion people are going to die, but we're going to win! | ||
| Boy, it's like that, isn't it? | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| It's really like that. | ||
| It's like... | ||
| If we are to win, it is going to require us, the team who is going to win, to inflict harm. | ||
| At least two billion people dying. | ||
| What is that? | ||
| About a third of the world's population's got to die? | ||
| Right around there. | ||
| In his best case scenario? | ||
| That's incredibly fucked up. | ||
| And he doesn't believe in climate change. | ||
| So he doesn't believe it. | ||
| Like, that could be an ostensible argument or something he's trying to talk about, but he doesn't believe that shit. | ||
| So he thinks that there's going to be two billion people dead just from, like, we're going to have to kill all the Muslims. | ||
| That's probably what he thinks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Well, they're going to get in the way of our side winning. | ||
| I have very little doubt that that's at least a large piece of what he's imagining the best case scenario is that he's describing there, which I think is... | ||
| Profoundly scarier than his very baseless idea that Hillary Clinton was going to have Barack Obama nuke somebody. | ||
| Does he have, like, a vision for after the billions of people die? | ||
| Like, his vision, so far his state of, like... | ||
| Libertarian utopia of some sort where everyone has guns, everyone has their own money. | ||
| Slave. | ||
| Well, that too. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, sure. | ||
| Slavery is just sort of like, it's just an economic agreement that anyone could enter into if they want. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| Duress isn't a real thing. | ||
| You've got a choice. | ||
| God gave us free will. | ||
| Everybody would have their own competing currencies that you'd have to spend almost your entire time trying to figure out how to transfer among each other. | ||
| You couldn't usually, I mean, if you're in like, let's say, Illinois, you couldn't use Missouri dollars in Illinois. | ||
| Or if you do, they'd probably be worth less than they are in Missouri. | ||
| So, I mean, that would be a fun utopia to live in. | ||
| I bet Missouri dollars would be worth less in Illinois than Illinois dollars would be in Missouri. | ||
| Depends on the part of Illinois. | ||
| All I'm saying is I'm just going to go out on a limb and say that Missouri's economy is not going to be backed up by the Fed or the Missouri Fed. | ||
| Or the Missouri State? | ||
| It's interesting you brought that into it, because that will also be a part of it. | ||
| There will be rogue banks. | ||
| Of course! | ||
| And rogue courts, where if you have a dispute with someone, you have your favorite court that you go and appeal your case in front of. | ||
| They probably have their own court. | ||
| Yeah, but that's the same thing as it is now. | ||
| It's a little more central. | ||
| It's a little bit... | ||
| It's slightly... | ||
| On paper, it's better. | ||
| Hey, you know, the justice system is a check. | ||
| If we end up in, like, some sort of libertarian fantasy world where there's a bunch of competing currencies that screw up all sorts of transactions, everybody's hostily antagonistic towards each other, you know, if we end up in that sort of thing, if only a couple billion people have to die to get us there, hooray. | ||
| That's fantastic. | ||
| It sounds like... | ||
| The worst fight ever. | ||
| I mean, a lot of people are going to die in the Visa versus MasterCard wars in order to figure out who becomes the dominant credit card holder. | ||
| Oh, sure. | ||
| I mean, why wouldn't a credit agency get an army? | ||
| Yeah, no, absolutely. | ||
| I'm a little shocked Visa doesn't already have a bit of an army tucked away somewhere. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, like, that's all incredibly insane. | ||
| The idea that his, like... | ||
| Good scenario involves that much death. | ||
| That leads me to believe. | ||
| I think you probably got it perfect. | ||
| That's almost a threat. | ||
| It is exactly a threat. | ||
| It feels a lot like a threat. | ||
| It's exactly a threat. | ||
| So, now we get to another, like, real direct similarity between the Kavanaugh swearing in vote day and the 2016 election day. | ||
| There's something that Alex brings up about the people who are against his side that is very... | ||
| Very similar. | ||
| Here is him talking about the stuff on the Kavanaugh vote day. | ||
| This isn't great. | ||
| So, about an hour to go tonight, Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed and defense of free speech, defense of due process, defense of statute of limitations is in place. | ||
| We have seen a collection of Democratic Party operatives. | ||
| Try to block the nomination of a good man to the Supreme Court. | ||
| But really here is a referendum on the intimidation and the bullying of the left. | ||
| That's what's exciting. | ||
| You've got all these, admittedly, George Soros and Democratic Party and Chinese government funded. | ||
| That's even in mainstream news. | ||
| Groups where they kill gays and enslave women and forcibly abort little girls and kill little baby girls. | ||
| You've got these women out here on a high horse that believing they're fighting the evil that is men. | ||
| Their father, their brother, their son. | ||
| It's insane. | ||
| We're all one species. | ||
| Some women are good, some women are bad. | ||
| Some men are good, some men are bad. | ||
| So, he invalidates criticism by sort of implying, first of all, that everybody's on all these payrolls, which is all great. | ||
| That's just sort of standard stuff. | ||
| But the thing that's really specific there is the idea that these women are just mad at their dads. | ||
| That idea is so insulting, so offensive. | ||
| I'm a big fan of him immediately invalidating what he's saying in the middle of it. | ||
| Like, why are these women angry? | ||
| Yeah, because you just said with absolute disdain! | ||
| You just said just these women as though you're like... | ||
| Why are these... | ||
| I mean, I have to call them people, I suppose. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| If I must. | ||
| Why are these subspecies? | ||
| I mean, we're all the same species. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| And there's good women and bad women. | ||
| You know, the good women are the ones who do whatever I tell them to do. | ||
| And the bad women are the one I yell, lock her up at. | ||
| It's crazy! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Why don't these women like us? | ||
| They must be mad at their dads. | ||
| Like, can't... | ||
| Possibly be, I'm an asshole. | ||
| That kind of rhetoric that he's putting out, it's like, I think anybody hearing that sort of shit, it's like, hey, I have a valid complaint. | ||
| You're just mad at your dad. | ||
| Now I have two valid complaints. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| It's like, I don't get it. | ||
| So in that clip, he's expressing that these women are just mad at their dads, which is offensive and in a horrible position to take. | ||
| But it's interesting because around the time of the election, there were also some women who were pretty mad. | ||
| And he had these things to say about the Democrats. | ||
| And then... | ||
| Mic down, because you will not believe how this clip ends. | ||
| And the Democrats are running around, thumbing at the mouth, as they always do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's their culture. | |
| Most of them don't have parents. | ||
| I feel sorry for them. | ||
| They think the state's their mommy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Like a little baby duck that thinks an 18-wheeler is his daddy. | |
| They've self-identified with it as it runs them over on I-35. | ||
| They've imprinted. | ||
| On a fiery furnace. | ||
| Donald Trump elected president. | ||
| Even AP's saying it. | ||
| But at 1.36 Central, 2.36 Eastern. | ||
| We're not hearing it. | ||
| They'll probably announce that Russians nuke New York and Hillary wasn't there and Donald was and that's the end of it. | ||
| All I know is we're going to continue on and we're going to fight the new world order. | ||
| Because we believe in prosperity and we don't want to rape you and your family. | ||
| And that's why we have free shipping running for the next few days. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God damn it! | |
| A bunch of big discounts, 30 to 40% off. | ||
| That's why we have free shipping! | ||
| That's why! | ||
| That's why we have free shipping! | ||
| We have free shipping because we don't want to rape your kids! | ||
| You know Sephora charges for shipping? | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
| That's why they charge for shipping. | ||
| Anybody who charges for shipping? | ||
| Rapists! | ||
| That was so wild to me. | ||
| Hearing that, I was like, whoa. | ||
| No ad pivot can ever touch that. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| We don't want to rape your kids. | ||
| That's why we have free shipping. | ||
| It's the that's why. | ||
| It's the that's why. | ||
| That's why. | ||
| Specifically. | ||
| There's only one reason. | ||
| Maybe there's another reason. | ||
| The use of those words in that hinge, that pivot hinge, is so crazy. | ||
| Because you could disconnect the thoughts and have the same effect. | ||
| You could be like, we're going to keep fighting because we know that they want to rape your family and we're not into that. | ||
| By the way. | ||
| By the way would have been nice. | ||
| Completely unrelated. | ||
| We have free shipping. | ||
| I even would have gone with just an also. | ||
| An also would have been fantastic, too. | ||
| That's why. | ||
| By the by, we have free shipping going on right now. | ||
| Tantamount of nothing, we have free shipping. | ||
| Any whoozle. | ||
| We got free shipping. | ||
| That's why. | ||
| That's why. | ||
| Gross. | ||
| We believe in prosperity and not raping children. | ||
| That's why it's 20% off! | ||
| On our weird supplements. | ||
| Jesus. | ||
| So, in there, you hear that, like, you know, these Democrats who are protesting against Trump, they just don't have dads. | ||
| They don't have parents, and it's so sad, they're like ducks. | ||
| Alright, man. | ||
| It's a good way to sort of... | ||
| Empathy dehumanize your opponents or people who believe other things than you. | ||
| It's a good way for me to no longer have empathy for him. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| It really takes the empathy out of you when somebody's just like, the only reason you're mad is because you don't have parents. | ||
| Definitely not because we're going to steal your rights. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| So here is another... | ||
| A couple of clips where Alex is saying almost identical things during the Kavanaugh stream and the election stream. | ||
| This one here is from the Kavanaugh stream. | ||
| Those of us that know real power know that we could rule the planet if we only submitted to the Lucifer. | ||
| We don't do that. | ||
| We build a challenging system to that countervailing system to God. | ||
| So he could have more power if he was down with Satan. | ||
| Now here's what he said on the election stream. | ||
| I can't bring myself to feet on the public. | ||
| If I did, I'd be 20 times more powerful. | ||
| I mean, being a good guy, we're changing the world and are contenders with the globalists. | ||
| But if I didn't give a damn and just screwed everybody and played into all their BS, I'd be running the show. | ||
| No doubt. | ||
| Running the show. | ||
| But I don't do that. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So, yeah, I mean, it's just sort of like a preoccupation that he has. | ||
| You can see very clearly that the idea of, like, I'm good. | ||
| I must be good because I'd be more successful if I was bad. | ||
| Which suggests all of my success is because I am good. | ||
| Right. | ||
| As opposed to, I have done bad things along the way. | ||
| It necessitates that all you have is in spite of you being good. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| You are so good that you are still successful even though being evil would be more successful. | ||
| Which is ironic considering that a multi-level marketing scheme is literally feeding on people. | ||
| Oh, absolutely. | ||
| I mean, it's a literal one-to-one thing. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or getting people tricked on auto-ship or something like that. | ||
| All of this shit. | ||
| Or trying to convince people that they need your iodine in order to be healthy. | ||
| Like, just trying to convince people that they're somehow deficient because of what the, quote, globalists have done to them. | ||
| That's feeding off them. | ||
| Putting these ideas into their head in order for you to monetize their response to those ideas is the definition of feeding off people. | ||
| That's all he does. | ||
| It's just like earlier when he said he doesn't play games. | ||
| He plays so many games. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| He's a gamesman. | ||
| He's a parasite. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| He is a fucking parasite sucking the life out of the rest of us. | ||
| There's something to that. | ||
| So, I mentioned that I wasn't able to find the full videos of the display of cruelty that goes on at the end of the 2016 election stream, which I'm happy for. | ||
| I'm glad that... | ||
| You know, to not necessarily watch that all over again. | ||
| Yeah, I'm not in the mood. | ||
| But I will say that there's a couple of very stark parallels that relate to that in terms of my firm conviction is that Alex Jones on election night made, and all of his staff, everyone involved, They went out of their way in order to victimize the people on the other side. | ||
| The people who were crying showed videos of them, laughed at them, just made sport out of the idea of like, ha ha, look at these losers. | ||
| Aren't we great? | ||
| We're not them. | ||
| They're losers. | ||
| And in order to do that, they have to sort of build up this idea that those, you know, I don't know, 20-year-old, 22-year-old girls, women who were crying, were somehow oppressing them. | ||
| But be that as it may. | ||
| That was the demonstration on election night. | ||
| It was what the show was largely about, outside of Alex getting a little bit weird and saying a bunch of stupid bullshit. | ||
| The visual that remains, as evidenced by the next day, Paul Joseph Watson putting out that compilation of people crying and him putting wah sound effects under it, what they wanted to drive home is like, look at these stupid losers crying because we beat them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| When the Kavanaugh stream happened, Alex was trying desperately to recreate that. | ||
| So he kept going out to Millie Weaver on the street, trying to get video of her finding people crying, and it was unsuccessful. | ||
| So he kept trying to make it happen. | ||
| The only way he was able to successfully get that feeling back at all was by having Darren McBreen come into the studio, one of his employees, video producer Darren McBreen. | ||
| So the two of them... | ||
| Could get super cruel about the idea that Kavanaugh going on to the Supreme Court was going to cause liberals to cry. | ||
| Hey, I saw you're up here. | ||
| I didn't know you were going to be up here. | ||
| What do you think of all this? | ||
| Come here. | ||
| I mean, sirs, I could sit here and pontificate all day, but are we not breaking these assholes' will that wanted to break our will? | ||
| All the shit they've done to us, and finally we're winning. | ||
| What's better than the confirmation is going to be the aftermath. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just all the butt hurt and seeing the crying and the total liberal meltdown. | |
| I'm going to just bask in the liberal tears. | ||
| So wouldn't you know that on the stream of the election night 2016, here's Darren McBreen. | ||
| We get to see the triggering now. | ||
| I mean, they're going to have videos. | ||

I think Saturday Night Live is going to move from New York to Ottawa or something, right? | |
| Alec Baldwin will see you later. | ||
| You take your two-bed acting up there. | ||
| So there's a young lady who is no longer with the company trying to get a word in edgewise while Joe Biggs, Darren McBreen, and David Knight make some goofs because Alex had to take a break and so they went to that in the stream. | ||
| She was even trying to say something awful and they wouldn't let her speak. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
| God. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Wonder where she is now. | ||
| Yeah, probably saying something awful to somebody else. | ||
| Probably. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ugh. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| So, interesting. | ||
| Darren McBreen's coming in with the exact same energy on both of these streams. | ||
| Wild. | ||
| Almost like that's kind of what it's about. | ||
| You know, if these guys were soldiers and they had that attitude... | ||
| They would commit war crimes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, big time. | |
| That's the attitude of somebody who is a fucking rapist. | ||
| But what if they're soldiers in the information war? | ||
| Would they commit war crimes in that space? | ||
| Pretty much. | ||
| Oh my god. | ||
| I'm 100% sure they would. | ||
| As long as it triggers the libs. | ||
| As long as we get to see them cry. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why do you want that? | |
| Because it's funny. | ||
| Because it's fucking funny. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Is it? | |
| To them, yeah. | ||
| You can't feel like it's fun to watch another human being experience pain, right? | ||
| I mean, that's profoundly fucked up. | ||
| It is. | ||
| It is pretty fucked up. | ||
| But it is what they're all about. | ||
| Here, from election 2016 stream, here's Joe Biggs. | ||

| Respect people? | ||

| And if I start doing that, then I have to wrestle with the fact that I make other people feel bad. | ||
| And if I make other people feel bad... | ||
| Doesn't that suggest that maybe I'm the one who's doing something wrong? | ||
| No, I can't allow myself to think that for even a second. | ||
| What they're doing is they're faking feeling bad in order to make me feel bad. | ||
| They're victimizing me with their feelings. | ||
| It's even worse. | ||
| Soros is paying them to act like they feel bad. | ||
| See, now I know who the real enemy is. | ||
| Indeed. | ||
| It's definitely not that I'm a fucking... | ||
| I don't... | ||
| Monster. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, a literal monster. | ||
| So Joe Biggs is mocking the idea that people are tweeting about anxiety, which I imagine, as we've discussed ad nauseum, there's a lot of people who obviously felt like, uh-oh. | ||
| On election night in terms of their safety and their continued right to exist. | ||
| And in two years, all of their anxiety has been vindicated. | ||
| Or vindicated. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so here is Joe Biggs being even worse. | ||
| Drudge is already calling it for Trump, and also I just tweeted out pictures from inside Hillary Clinton's celebration area, and it's nothing but people filled with tears. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And she literally hit the glass ceiling of the Javits Center. | |
| It's all the campaign workers crying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Awesome. | |
| Just so sad. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's called schadenfreude. | |
| Is it? | ||
| So that is a small version of what I've been talking about. | ||
| The actual... | ||
| The thing that I remember is not just Joe Biggs, David Knight, and Darren McBreen sitting around laughing at pictures of these people crying. | ||
| It went viral in the studio later. | ||
| But that's exactly what was going on. | ||
| You see that, and that's a dark picture. | ||
| That's a dark picture of a news operation. | ||
| He just said she was hitting the literal glass ceiling. | ||
| He did say that. | ||
| So that means that he knows that the glass ceiling does exist, and he enjoys and appreciates that it does. | ||
| But I think he said, of the Java Center, or something like that, whatever the building she was in. | ||
| So he was using it as sort of a nice turn of phrase to be a dick. | ||
| But yeah, yeah, I mean, that's pretty awful. | ||
| So, later in the night, the part that I can't find the video of, because Alex's YouTube channel is gone, they sit around and watch the footage of people at Hillary rallies crying and make fun of it. | ||
| Bunch of white dudes and whoever that lady is, and Leanne McAdoo sitting around. | ||
| I wrongly have said that Jakari Jackson was there. | ||
| He'd quit by this point. | ||
| I'd forgotten that. | ||
| I think it's all white people. | ||
| I don't see a single non-white face, except I believe Dinesh D'Souza shows up. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| Why not? | ||
| Why wouldn't he? | ||
| So, when it came time for the Kavanaugh stream, Alex, like I said, was going out to Millie Weaver trying to get her to have footage of people crying. | ||
| Trying to get protesters that they can do this exact same thing with. | ||
| Talk about, ha ha, look at all you stupid triggered liberals. | ||
| Ha ha ha. | ||
| But, it didn't happen. | ||
| There weren't people crying. | ||
| There were people out chanting. | ||
| There were people with their fists raised in the air and what have you. | ||
| That's what Millie Weaver was capturing as video. | ||
| And Alex wasn't getting what he wanted out of it during the Kavanaugh stream. | ||
| So what he did is this. | ||
| I want to see some of those videos. | ||
| Can we pull up on YouTube a reaction to Trump's inauguration or election night? | ||
| You know, the trailer for... | ||
| Get Me Roger Stone is really good. | ||
| It shows the left it's on election night. | ||
| And there's another video we did called This Is Why the Left Hates Info Wars. | ||
| And then we show them panicking. | ||
| So, because he couldn't get what he needed during the Kavanaugh stream that he was putting on, but that was the presentation he wanted, he needed to hearken back to the original night where he was super cruel in order to feel it again. | ||
| So... | ||
| That's gross. | ||
| I don't want to win, Dan. | ||
| Winning is boring. | ||
| I want to feel them crushed under my boot. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I want to feel them. | ||
| I want them to... | ||
| It's almost like I want them to know what it is I'm about to do to them before I can do it. | ||
| Almost. | ||
| I want them to feel the pain of what's going to occur to them, because that's the only way I can get off. | ||
| It does seem that way. | ||
| And also, considering that Alex's stream during the Kavanaugh vote and afterwards, there's no content to it. | ||
| There's not really any conversation about, like, what this means for the court or anything like that outside of, like, ha-ha, we won. | ||
| And Alex drawing a lighthouse on a piece of paper and trying to shoot his own camera with the cork of a champagne bottle twice. | ||
| That's about all that goes on, except for him desperately trying to get this footage from Millie or wherever he can get it from. | ||
| He tries to get it from... | ||
| Let's go back to election night. | ||
| They do this. | ||
| All right, we're going to go to a feed here. | ||
| I'm going to come out with a final statement. | ||
| Did you guys play my video? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
| All right, good, good, good. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We played your video. | ||
| It got roaring laughs out in the crowd. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| We played it again. | ||
| Are we going to Jones' video now? | ||
| A prediction? | ||
| A prediction? | ||
| We do have a five-minute video of protesters crying for Millie Weaver on Computer 12. That just happened? | ||
| It just happened. | ||
| They shot it about five minutes ago. | ||
| So let's go to that. | ||
| So, they believe that they have a five-minute video that Millie has shot of protesters crying, which they don't have. | ||
| They end up playing a video where it's Millie Weaver wandering around a protest and just seeing a bunch of people locked arms, a bunch of people chanting, a bunch of people with signs. | ||
| No one's crying. | ||
| No one is doing what they need them to do in order to... | ||
| Exercise this cruel spirit that lives within them. | ||
| So, they don't really get what they want, but they pretend it's there anyway. | ||
| Your defiance isn't making this fun for us! | ||
| Stop it! | ||
| Stop! | ||
| There is a little bit of that in there. | ||
| Yeah, no, absolutely. | ||
| It's... | ||
| You can see, and Alex ends up ending his stream, the Kavanaugh one. | ||
| He gives a really long, meandering toast about how this champagne is 1776. | ||
| Then he goes off air, realizes that he didn't do a good enough job, and he needs to be a little angrier, so he does another toast, and then slams down the glass of champagne on the table, breaking the glass, and stares into the camera like a madman. | ||
| After he breaks the glass. | ||
| So there is that feeling of he's not getting what he needs out of this and it's not good to him. | ||
| So he has to keep going. | ||
| That's why he does like two hours in that Kavanaugh stream because he's not getting what he needs out of it, which is this visual that he got on election night of people crying. | ||
| People victimized by his quote-unquote success. | ||
| That is what he needs. | ||
| He needs women's tears. | ||
| He needs minorities feeling scared. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or else, what's the point of this operation anymore? | ||
| Ugh, now I'm going to have to hit a homeless person on my way home so I can get hard. | ||
| Why are you making this suck? | ||
| Bah! | ||
| And, I mean, this... | ||
| Calls back to what he was talking about earlier in that clip from the 2016 election thing where he's talking about the idea of white Christians, we got you out of slavery, we try to empower women, and now you guys have turned on us. | ||
| That is why he feels... | ||
| So desperate in order to get those tears. | ||
| That's why he's so desperate to get that victimization from them because he feels that they've wronged him by demanding to be treated like equals. | ||
| He feels that they have wronged his whiteness and his maleness by asking for equality. | ||
| And that's really, really hard to look at. | ||
| That's hard to deal with because, first of all, it's so dumb. | ||
| It's so dumb. | ||
| Not least of which, it utterly defies his narrative of, look, white people raised you up. | ||
| We brought you out of this whole thing. | ||
| And, I mean, sure, we enjoy making you feel miserable and crushing you under our boots. | ||
| That's because we love raising you up so much. | ||
| But you have to be raised up to exactly where I want you to be. | ||
| If you're anywhere else. | ||
| In order for me to knock you the fuck down. | ||
| Well, you won't get knocked down if you stay below my bat. | ||
| It's that sort of thing. | ||
| I'm gonna be swinging, and if you get, you know, out of your station or whatever, you know, terms that would have been used before. | ||
| I don't care to utter. | ||
| But, like, you know, it's that sort of thing. | ||
| Stay in your place and you're not going to get hit. | ||
| And then you won't have to cry and make me feel bad for hitting you. | ||
| And frankly, it's your fault that you got hit. | ||
| You should have known. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You should have known. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Look at me. | ||
| I'm a crazy white man swinging a bat. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
| You shouldn't have come anywhere near me. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I mean, sure, I stole you from your country and sold you into slavery. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But why did you? | ||
| You were the ones. | ||
| Look, in a libertarian world, you were the ones who said hi. | ||
| True. | ||
| You should never have done that! | ||
| And you live in a country where, you know, white people have always loved swinging bats. | ||
| It's part of our cultural heritage. | ||
| Yeah, come on! | ||
| That's such a, like... | ||
| See? | ||
| Now you guys know what we would have done if you guys came to our country. | ||
| We would have separated you from your families. | ||
| We're not getting sold into slavery. | ||
| We learned from your mistakes in saying hi and offering us food. | ||
| Look how dumb you are to be kind. | ||
| So, in this next clip, this one's from the 2016 election. | ||
| We jump off the cruelty thing, although I think that that is probably the biggest piece of this. | ||
| I really do. | ||
| I think that what they tried to do is essentially... | ||
| I don't know if it was 100% intentional on election night that that was what they ended up doing. | ||
| I think that was where their instincts took them and they loved it. | ||
| I think that that cruelty display that they had of laughing at people crying because they feared for their safety, I think that that was sort of an improvisational move. | ||
| And then, because it was so good, and they made so much hay out of it, made so many quote-unquote viral pieces out of it, like Paul Watson's from The Next Day. | ||
| They tried to do that again in the Kavanaugh stream. | ||
| That was the pageant that they tried to put on. | ||
| That was the entire point of it. | ||
| So, I don't want to undersell that. | ||
| That's the big piece. | ||
| But Alex says a couple more really fucked up things that I didn't remember from the 2016 stream that I think I might have buried away somewhere in my subconscious, but boy, I don't remember him saying shit like this. | ||
| This one, this next one. | ||
| Listen to the language he uses here. | ||
| Listen to the specific syntax. | ||
| Because if you follow pronoun reference, you're going to hear something supremely fucked up. | ||
| The evil has been shown how they hate you, how they want to bankrupt you, how they think you're dumb, how they think you're scum. | ||
| Here's the problem, though. | ||
| Our forebearers thought you were something. | ||
| They set up a system where you could vote. | ||
| And now, in an abomination, you use that power to turn us into your slaves. | ||
| Well, here's the news, jackass. | ||
| We're not going to be Hillary's slaves and the ruling class's slaves. | ||
| And we're not going to be the slaves of you either. | ||
| Those of you above, those of you below, are all the same damn thing. | ||
| You will go into where you're leaving. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Not us! | |
| Not us! | ||
| I understand you hate strength and beauty. | ||
| Because you're ugly. | ||
| So, uh... | ||
| Our forebearers. | ||
| Gave you the right to vote, and now you're using that against us. | ||
| I'll talk to you about votes for a second. | ||
| I only want to hear three-fifths of what you have to say, Dan. | ||
| Originally, only white males who owned property were given the right to vote in this country. | ||
| That constituted 6% of the population even having a hypothetical say in voting. | ||
| It wasn't until 1856 that the last state did away with the whole owning property stipulation to allow people to vote, but even at that point, it was still just white male renters who were now allowed to have their voice heard at the ballot box, a good 80 years after this country was founded. | ||
| In 1870, the 15th Amendment was passed which prevents states from making laws to prevent voting on the basis of, quote, race, color, or previous condition of servitude. | ||
| Naturally, most southern states immediately put into place tons of restrictions meant to disenfranchise the new black voters, and thus Jim Crow laws came into play. | ||
| Fun fact, the Supreme Court pretty regularly upheld those disenfranchising laws. | ||
| So really, even though there was a constitutional amendment saying otherwise, in practice, still it was mostly just white dudes who were able to freely vote. | ||
| In 1887, Native Americans were granted citizenship, and thus the ability to vote, on the condition that they break their association with their tribes. | ||
| They're like, oh, you can vote, but you gotta get out of that tribe. | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| You gotta get rid of your entire heritage and sort of walk away from your past and everything that connects you to your ancestors, your lineage, all of that stuff, your culture, everything, just get rid of it, you can vote. | ||
| You can vote if you want to act white! | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Duh! | ||
| So I would consider that not freely being able to vote. | ||
| that's demanding a massive sacrifice of people for the privilege of voting. | ||
| 37 years later, the US government would finally just say, "All right, fine. | ||
| You don't have to leave your tribe. | ||
| You're cool." But it took them 37 more fucking years. | ||
| In 1920, the 19th Yeah. | ||
| So that all was still in play. | ||
| And though it was founded... | ||
| In 1790, residents of Washington, D.C. weren't allowed to vote in general elections until 1965. | ||
| And to this day, though they are U.S. citizens, residents of Guam, the Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Island, and Puerto Rico can't vote in general elections. | ||
| Nor can people in American Samoa, though they're not citizens, they're American nationals. | ||
| Oh, also a fun little fact I found. | ||
| Ethnically Chinese U.S. citizens in many states were denied the right to own property until 1965 as a lingering effect of the Chinese Exclusion Act. | ||
| Can't imagine they were allowed to vote while they weren't allowed to own shit. | ||
| I mean, hey, if you want to own shit, you've got to vote us out. | ||
| Now, admittedly, that's abusing the power that we gave you to hurt us by you being able to participate in America or whatever it is. | ||
| Whatever it is you're talking about. | ||
| So, at what point is that your forebearer is giving you the right to vote? | ||
| Because some of this stuff is shockingly current. | ||
| You know, like, first of all, for those U.S. people, U.S. citizens in Puerto Rico, Guam... | ||
| That's current. | ||
| That's happening now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| In Washington, D.C., it was 1965. | ||
| That's not our forebears. | ||
| That's the last generation. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| That's like Alex Stouts 10 years before he was born. | ||
| 1920, when the 19th Amendment passed, that's not your forebears, that's your grandpa. | ||
| When he says your forebears, he's talking about the founding of this country. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| He's talking about, he's shaming white people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Shh, no. | |
| Listen to this again. | ||
| No. | ||
| Listen to this again. | ||
| No. | ||
| The evil has been shown how they hate you, how they want to bankrupt you, how they think you're dumb, how they think you're scum. | ||
| Here's the problem, though. | ||
| Our forebearers thought you were something. | ||
| They set up a system where you could vote. | ||
| And now, in an abomination, you use that power to turn us into your slaves. | ||
| Well, here's the news, jackass. | ||
| He's talking to white people who don't fall into his plan, don't fall into his program. | ||
| It's not talking about people who got the right to vote later. | ||
| I don't think, anyway. | ||
| So you're saying right now that he is not even pretending to use this as a general, like, our forebears gave all of you the right to vote. | ||
| Instead, he is saying, our forebears... | ||
| Why can't I say that right now? | ||
| It's a mess of a word. | ||
| It's a dumb word. | ||
| Our ancestors gave you... | ||
| White men the right to vote. | ||
| And some of you have used that to become traitors. | ||
| You race traitors. | ||
| You were given the right to vote. | ||
| You weren't a subjugant of the king anymore. | ||
| And then you turned that and you used it to remove white people's hegemony? | ||
| Bullshit! | ||
| Well, that's one possibility, and I think it's the most likely. | ||
| The other possibility is he is talking about other groups that won the right to vote over the course of history, which is, first of all, dumb to say that your forebears gave it to you and they fought for those rights and were beaten and killed in the process in order to get those rights. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I think he might literally think that everybody was allowed to vote. | ||
| He might. | ||
| He's that dumb. | ||
| He does believe in lore. | ||
| Yeah, let's not forget how dumb he is. | ||
| But if you go that angle, if you go that direction, then what he's saying is, so let's say you blacks and women, you were given the right to vote, and how dare you vote in ways that are in your best interests. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So even that doesn't make sense. | ||
| Well, because... | ||
| Even that is shockingly white supremacist. | ||
| But for white supremacists, it's a non-zero-sum game. | ||
| Or, I mean, it's a zero-sum game. | ||
| If you vote for what's in your best interests, then naturally that means that you're not voting for what's in my best interest. | ||
| And if you're voting against my best interest, then you're abusing me with the right I gave you. | ||
| You should be voting in my best interest as an act of grace. | ||
| You should be voting in my best interest in order to make sure that I continue giving you good things. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, like how a slave would do it. | ||
| It all doesn't make sense from a sensible standpoint. | ||
| But it does make sense when you look at it through the prism of a rambling... | ||
| Bigot talking on air. | ||
| Go to bed, Grandpa. | ||
| This next clip is from the Kavanaugh stream, and it's one of the other things that Alex has to do throughout the entire 2016 election stream and the Kavanaugh stream. | ||
| He has to present this idea that the left is out of control and they're rioting. | ||
| This is a narrative that he needs to use for a very specific reason, which we'll see in the clip right after. | ||
| But suffice it to say, he's making all of it up. | ||
| Here we are, just 25 minutes to go. | ||
| They confirmed Kavanaugh, and the left is just rioting and freaking out in D.C. We have live feeds on Infowars.com. | ||
| This is just insane. | ||
| This is total insanity that we're witnessing. | ||
| You look at Trump's remarkable week. | ||
| So the streams that he's playing from Infowars.com and Millie and all them out on the street don't show liberals rioting at all unless people standing with signs and chanting is rioting to you. | ||
| And if that's the case, then you want to take away people's right to demonstrate or to freely congregate or any of those things. | ||
| If you do, come out and say it. | ||
| Let's have that argument because you'll lose. | ||
| I think. | ||
| I hope. | ||
| God, I hope. | ||
| But... | ||
| Not in the Supreme Court. | ||
| Alex? | ||
| And the people on the right are very desperately, and have been for a long time, trying to present the idea of all the liberal protesters and things like that are completely out of control. | ||
| We've seen it come to fruition recently at one of Trump's rallies. | ||
| He was talking about how the left and Democrats have become ungovernable. | ||
| It's the rule of the mob and all this. | ||
| This is that language coming into its final form. | ||
| Alex is one of the first people who was... | ||
| Really going out there and pushing it real hard has been for a very long time. | ||
| And the function of it is to now try to delegitimize an entire side of the debate. | ||
| And it's working. | ||
| There is no other side. | ||
| There's only good and evil, Dan. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| We're good. | ||
| You think you have a good point? | ||
|
unidentified
|
When? | |
| You're evil. | ||
| You can't possibly have a good point. | ||
| Evil doesn't have good points. | ||
| Good only has good points. | ||
| That's what's in the name. | ||
| You have evil points. | ||
| I mean, sure, they're right. | ||
| But that's because being right is evil. | ||
| Like that history you just read off? | ||
| I don't want to hear that. | ||
| That makes white people feel bad. | ||
| That's evil. | ||
| That is evil. | ||
| That is an evil thing to say, Dan. | ||
| Don't tell me what happened. | ||
| Look, this is going to be a very dangerous thing, and hopefully... | ||
| Society is able to reel this in before it goes too far. | ||
| They will not be able to. | ||
| It's already way too far. | ||
| But the idea that you have the President of the United States going to some weird, unnecessary cult of personality rally and delegitimizing an entire opposition party as being ungovernable, you have now entered into, like, this is what history warns us about. | ||
| This is that. | ||
| Not if you don't know it. | ||
| This is why I'm mad at you for reading the history. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Look, you're telling me that this has happened before and that when people do this, bad things happen? | ||
| That doesn't sound right. | ||
| It would be much more pleasant to blissfully just have this creep up on you, but here are the signs. | ||
| There are signposts along the way, and that's a big one. | ||
| In my history, all I'm saying is that, look, Hitler did give Jews the right to vote. | ||
| Wait, no, he didn't, did he? | ||
| I'm not sure that, no, he did not. | ||
| But in my history he did. | ||
| Oh, yeah, in your history, yeah. | ||
| Which is good history. | ||
| It's good history. | ||
| Not evil history. | ||
| Not evil history. | ||
| So the reason that this rhetoric is really important, and the reason that Alex was able to spread it so far and wide within the right-wing world, and I'm not saying he was the first or the only, but he was one of the very strong voices of it, is that it leads somewhere. | ||
| And in this clip... | ||
| From how his head was feeling on the night of the 2016 election. | ||
| We hear where that rhetoric is intended to go. | ||
| And we'll go on stomping them forever. | ||
| Because big jackass crews of wimps get together and they think they can piss on people. | ||
| They take some nice man or woman who's just a hard-working good person and they think we're wimps because we don't want to break their necks. | ||
| And so they attack us and piss on us and do things until... | ||
| We finally stand up against them, and then they fight us. | ||
| We decide to break their legs. | ||
| But like the knight in the Monty Python movie, who keeps saying, I'm the knight that goes knee. | ||
| No, that's the black knight. | ||
| You've got their arms and legs off. | ||
| They just continue coming on. | ||
| And then you realize that you just can't give these people court. | ||
| They won't be happy until you've metaphysically stomped their eye sockets in and bashed their brains out. | ||
| We understand you can't coexist with us because we're altruistic. | ||
| We're strong. | ||
| We don't want to hurt you. | ||
| We want to build you. | ||
| You want to hurt people like a little Tasmanian devil piranha. | ||
| And so, as quickly as we can, we're just going to stomp your head in and kick you in the ditch. | ||
| And it's no hard feelings. | ||
| But it has to be done. | ||
| You can go around and fund radical Muslims. | ||
| You can fund abortions all day. | ||
| You can be a wimp and lie about what you really did. | ||
| But we're going to man up to it. | ||
| And the final equation, you will belong to the ash heap of history. | ||
| No one wants to be around you or with you. | ||
| I take no pleasure in that. | ||
| But you tried to better better men. | ||
| You may have shot humanity in the chest, but to quote Willie Nelson, or was it Merle Haggard, or was it Johnny Cash, you'll never get the best of better men. | ||
| So, that's supremely ugly. | ||
| Do you know what that reminds me the most of? | ||
| In the Sandman comics, there is a huge storyline. | ||
| Where this woman accidentally goes to a convention for serial killers. | ||
| And all these serial killers are living under this delusion that they're the hunters. | ||
| They're making humanity stronger. | ||
| They're the good guys. | ||
| They're there for a reason. | ||
| And at the end of it, Morpheus shows up and he gives the greatest curse in history. | ||
| Which is he just shows them who they really are. | ||
| Like, they see themselves as they really are. | ||
| Like, that is what Alex... | ||
| Like, I'm waiting for Republicans to outlaw mirrors. | ||
| Like, that's what Alex is... | ||
| That's what he's actually doing. | ||
| Like, all of the things that he just described that they are doing. | ||
| They want to kill you. | ||
| They want to tear you down. | ||
| They want to do all this stuff. | ||
| You hate us because we're altruistic. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Like, all of this stuff is like... | ||
| We can't coexist because we're altruistic. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Like, that is a complete, like, if he was forced by some Twilight Zone curse to see himself for who he really is, like, that's the only way to truly punish Alex. | ||
| Well, yeah, if you had, like, a on-the-road-to, like, the Saul-on-the-road moment, you know, like, that would be the only, that's the only fitting punishment. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Because what he's saying in there is all this, like, he keeps saying, oh, they pissed on us and they did this stuff. | ||
| And the only examples that he can come up with are you fund radical Islam and you fund abortions. | ||
| The abortions thing I don't even give a shit about. | ||
| Like, that's... | ||
| You know, Alex, I know where you are on that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure, sure, sure. | |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever. | ||
| And then with the radical Islam, I don't trust Alex to decide what is radical and what is not. | ||
| He's afraid of every single Muslim that exists. | ||
| So the idea that those are his two examples are like, hey, you support Muslims and you support women's right to get healthcare. | ||
| That's what pissing on you is? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's what you can't coexist with? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| That's what requires you to... | ||
| Stomp someone's skull in? | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| That makes perfect sense! | ||
| That, to me, is, like... | ||
| I don't even know how to put it into words, but it's one of the most pathetic, tragic things that's come out of his mouth. | ||
| Because when he's not talking specifically, you have this idea of, like, maybe he's talking about some actual wrong that's been done. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| When it's just, oh, people having rights bothers you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| And that... | ||
| Rhetoric is so uncomfortable because I don't know how to deal with the truth of it, I suppose. | ||
| Because the truth of what he's saying is this. | ||
| No matter how hard we try and stomp on these people, whether we remove their arms and legs, they will keep coming. | ||
| So the only way to stop them from coming is to kill them. | ||
| And that's how we end up with that two billion dead. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| In his fantasy scenario. | ||
| Now, the frustrating part of that is, how do you defeat Nazis? | ||
| Like, what do you do? | ||
| Like, how do we do that? | ||
| Like, beyond the metaphorical mirror that shows them for who they really are, like, how do we stop this? | ||
| Because, look, we had a good run! | ||
| There were tons of liberal policies, and they just fucking keep coming. | ||
| I think in the aftermath of World War II, there was denazification efforts that happened that were pretty successful, in the same way that after apartheid, there was truth and reconciliation committees, those sorts of things. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| You would need something fairly extreme in terms of levels of understanding and something that would be very uncomfortable for everyone to go through. | ||
| But it probably would be the only way to do it without what is the scarier option, which Yeah, I mean, for all of the things that I say, when it comes down to it, the people who most embody the things that I hate are my parents, are my family. | ||
| I don't want there to be a civil war because I'm not on their team. | ||
| I'm out. | ||
| That's gone. | ||
| So how do we... | ||
| Because changing their minds sure didn't work or doesn't work or isn't working. | ||
| There's no communication because, again, we're ungovernable. | ||
| We're demons. | ||
| We're evil. | ||
| For doing all of this stuff. | ||
| We're slandering a good man, Dan. | ||
|
unidentified
|
True. | |
| We're tearing him down. | ||
| It's a witch hunt. | ||
| We're hunting witches. | ||
| How can you trust people who hunt witches, Dan? | ||
| How can you communicate? | ||
| How can you talk to these people? | ||
|
unidentified
|
And that's not us saying it to them. | |
| That's them saying it to us. | ||
| So what do we fucking do? | ||
| How do you talk to them? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| How do we do this? | ||
| I'm not certain that people who have their minds made up about stuff or are under the sway of very powerful propaganda would be able to get outside of it without some moment that really... | ||
| Whether it's what you're describing, some sort of metaphysical mirror where they're able to see the reality or some sort of world event that brings things into sharp focus and makes them realize, oh god, that's really what I was a part of. | ||
| I thought it was something else. | ||
| Because there's a very small fraction of the people who are on the right who actually support Nazi-ish mentality. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| There is a larger portion that have fallen under the sway of the illusion of populism, the idea of what they're going along with. | ||
| And those people, I think, there is... | ||
| Something that would open their eyes. | ||
| I don't know what it would be. | ||
| Right? | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| The New York Times put out a story where a two-year-old went in front of a judge. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And not just one story. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No! | |
| There were multiple stories about that. | ||
| It was a train of children going in front of a fucking judge. | ||
| Children under the age of six. | ||
| Shouldn't that have been a flashpoint? | ||
| Thank God jurisprudence was saved by Kavanaugh getting onto the Supreme Court. | ||
| Shouldn't they, like, in my parents' situation, the only reason my family got out of the cult was because they killed a kid. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, like, that's the flashpoint that we're talking about. | ||
| And you would think that a Nazi rally where a guy murders a woman, that would be a flashpoint, and it's not. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| If the inertia of this movement continues along this line of cruelty, and it's only accelerating, it's only getting stronger, they're not losing people. | ||
| You know, people aren't jumping ship aside from a couple of asshole columnists who can go fucking fuck themselves. | ||
| You know, like, the reaction that's going to break that inertia is only going to become stronger. | ||
| Or is only going to need to be stronger and... | ||
| Like, what's going to stop this is not going to be good for anybody. | ||
| I mean, what's going to stop... | ||
| Well, obviously, the way that we're going, what's going to stop this is climate change. | ||
| Radical displays of love and caring and empathy possibly could have a very strong effect. | ||
| The Grinch theory? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| No, I see what you're saying. | ||
| Maybe I'm idealistic. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But I also think that if we look at the history of that being attempted, generally speaking, it's not so much the radical empathy and love, it's the people expressing radical empathy and love and then getting the shit kicked out of them. | ||
| I mean, we're the Jesus. | ||
| We're talking about somebody is going to have to fucking take one in the chin for us. | ||
| Like, that kind of situation. | ||
| And it seems like a lot of people already are. | ||
| Well, a lot of people on the right do imagine that the Second Coming is around the corner, so maybe something like that will happen. | ||
| Yeah, yep. | ||
| Some artificial version of the Second Coming could fix things. | ||
| They just need that... | ||
| They need to see who they really are, and I don't know what can... | ||
| Shake it. | ||
| Yeah, but I think that one of the problems for us fixing everything is something that we've sort of touched on a little bit over the course of these shows that we do. | ||
| And that is that the things that Alex Jones and people like him, especially, people who are cruel propagandists, they seek to, whether it's intentional or not, is really fucking difficult to figure out, but I feel like it is. | ||
| They seek to get rid of the avenues by which people can have that waking up experience. | ||
| In the same way that cults try and limit access to outside world information, like the internet that could disprove them. | ||
| Oh, absolutely. | ||
| Don't go to the Clinton News Network. | ||
| Go to Fox News. | ||
| One of the prime... | ||
| ...focuses of people who are trying to bring us into the negative place is to discredit the idea of any actual truth. | ||
| Anything in the media being accurate. | ||
| No, you can only trust the people like me, Tucker Carlson, and Doocy. | ||
| They're only people who are legit. | ||
| And if you hear it from Trump, it's fucking true. | ||
| Don't worry about it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Those sorts of things really serve to limit the ability of people to save themselves. | ||
| And then it also hurts the ability of you to talk anybody out of it because you'll use primary sources or talk about, hey, Chinese people couldn't own property until 1965 in a lot of states. | ||
| Oh, hey, states' rights. | ||
| Hey! | ||
| You could bring those things up, but they don't, you know, it'd be like, I don't trust that. | ||
| I don't believe that. | ||
| It's just belief. | ||
| So, I don't know. | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| All I'm going for is I want you and I to get big enough where we get invited onto one of those Fox News shows. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| Because here's my dream scenario, all right? | ||
| I don't want to do it. | ||
| You be Tucker Carlson and I'll be me. | ||
| Do you like my bow tie, sir? | ||
| I love your bow tie. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Do you have any questions for me? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Just wanted to bring you here so I could insult your shitty beard. | ||
| All I want... | ||
| To go on Fox News to do is just say... | ||
| I hear, actually, Jordan, I've listened to some of your shows. | ||
| I hear you're a soft yes on white genocide. | ||
| Tucker, I am. | ||
| And I just want to say this. | ||
| You're a giant piece of shit. | ||
| Thank you for having me on. | ||
| I'm going to get out of here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Peace. | |
| I'm going to get out of here. | ||
| No, don't you want to have an argument? | ||
| Nah, dude. | ||
| You're a piece of shit. | ||
| I'm out! | ||
| Booyah. | ||
| I just want that moment. | ||
| I want one moment. | ||
| The problem is... | ||
| I want to see Tucker Carlson cry, is what I'm saying. | ||
| He wouldn't. | ||
| No, of course not. | ||
| I don't want to see him cry. | ||
| The problem is those shows aren't live, so it would never air. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, shit. | |
| You'd have to have someone there with a video camera capturing it. | ||
| I need a live show. | ||
| Yeah, you need to find... | ||
| Fox and Friends. | ||
| Fox and Friends is live, right? | ||
| Yeah, but they have a delay, I'm sure. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| Well, then I'd have to really stretch it out. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| What's the five second... | ||
| Is it a five second delay? | ||
| Depends. | ||
| Station by station. | ||
| I imagine a TV one would have maybe a minute. | ||
| Oh, I can roll for a minute. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I can roll for a minute, Dan. | |
| Well, maybe you'll be able to overcome their delay and get your message. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
| Go fuck yourself. | ||
| They're holding on to me, trying to rip me out of there. | ||
| I'm just going to keep going. | ||
| I have to say, I don't think that would be the flashpoint that saves the world. | ||
| No, but it would be a great one for me. | ||
| And it's probably delusional of us to actually think that there is some sort of flashpoint possible, but it's something that you think about, because that would be the real-world version of the metaphorical mirror, some sort of world crisis event or something like that that would shock people into realizing, oh, what have we become? | ||
| Well, you would think, again, that the climate change deniers would see... | ||
| All of the hurricanes. | ||
| We're getting hit with another hurricane right now. | ||
| There's so many shit. | ||
| Like, climate change. | ||
| They even said we've got 12 years left. | ||
| They sound more like me! | ||
| Those alarmists have always been saying stupid shit. | ||
| The scientists are finally skipping the, like, we gotta solve this by 2100. | ||
| Otherwise people, and they're on my side where they're like, we're fu- Right, but they just want to try and get carbon taxes going so George Soros can make more money. | ||
| Why don't you understand this? | ||
| But that's the mirror, isn't it? | ||
| Whenever it finally comes home and fucking swaths of the coastline are just gone. | ||
| I think that so much of that can be... | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's actually Soros' weather weapons. | |
| That's what's going to do it. | ||
| See? | ||
| There we go. | ||
| That will be the new argument. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| There's always something. | ||
| There's always something. | ||
| I don't fucking know. | ||
| Anyway, Jordan, I don't know if I achieved exactly what I hoped to achieve with this episode, but I noticed those stark parallels between the Kavanaugh stream and the election stream, and I felt they were worth pointing out. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| The audience can decide whether it's worthwhile or not, but I knew that there was that cruelty in the Kavanaugh stream that I really felt it was important for us to discuss, even if we didn't go over the entire stream. | ||
| Trust us, there wasn't all that much outside of the cruelty that was worthwhile. | ||
| Alex just rambles about a drawing of a lighthouse that he made for about five minutes. | ||
| That's kind of fun, but... | ||
| The thing that I do, the parallel that you have made, and I think you've nailed it, the one thing about it, though, is strangely hopeful. | ||
| The parallel that you have made, on election night, we are... | ||
| All crying. | ||
| We are all watching the doom of America. | ||
| And on Kavanaugh's confirmation, there was no crying. | ||
| There was none of that. | ||
| Everyone was ready. | ||
| Everyone was raising their fist up. | ||
| Everybody was saying... | ||
| Not this time. | ||
| We're not crying. | ||
| This isn't a mournful situation. | ||
| This is a fight. | ||
| That's hopeful. | ||
| The would-be victims of Alex's propaganda pageant that he wanted to put on weren't playing the same game. | ||
| They had evolved to the point now where people had organized and were getting more active, whereas the glimpse of Alex as a propaganda outlet had not evolved. | ||
| He was trying to do the exact same thing. | ||
| So yes, I think that is slightly optimistic in some ways. | ||
| We just gotta get the Democratic National Committee to figure that shit out now. | ||
| Even now people are like, I don't know if we should run Warren. | ||
| She's too angry. | ||
| She's too shrill for the Democratic voters. | ||
| Great. | ||
| Good work, dudes. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And all this is to say that times are ugly ahead and let's hope. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I have nothing to say. | ||
| Hey, man. | ||
| Let's do Clinton in 2020! | ||
| Let's do Bill this time! | ||
| Let's throw another Clinton in there! | ||
| Who gives a shit? | ||
| Triangulation, Dan! | ||
| That's how we win! | ||
| Centrism! | ||
| That's probably going to be the mirror that wakes everyone up. | ||
| I don't know, Jordan. | ||
| I have nothing really to sum up other than to say everybody knows where we stand on things and the world can go fuck itself. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| We have a website, knowledgefight.com. | ||
| Indeed we do, Dan. | ||
| Where else could you find us? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Twitter. | |
| We're at knowledge underscore fight. | ||
| Could you find us in another place? | ||
| Yes, Facebook. | ||
| What about another social media, like a smaller social media group on Facebook called Go Home and Tell Your Mother You're Billion. | ||
| All right. | ||
| What if you went to iTunes and you saw our show and you subscribed to it and you liked it? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| What if you left a review? | ||
| That would be nice. | ||
| That would be great. | ||
| Any of those things would be great things to do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now... | |
| On Kavanaugh Day and on Election Day 2016, we saw Alex being very similar. | ||
| And there's one thing that's also similar between those two days, and that is he is aware that he probably killed a dude. | ||
| Andy in Kansas, you're on the air. | ||
| Thanks for holding. | ||

I'm a huge fan. | |
