Today, Dan and Jordan check in to see how Alex Jones does or does not cover the news of the Taliban taking Kabul. Instead of getting into that news, Alex mostly rambles about Covid and shares some interesting thoughts about King Arthur. Citations
It was something that was very attractive to me, and in hindsight, I wish that I had the wherewithal to stand up and just be like, I'm gonna have a secret.
And you start out just the way you, kind of the way you do.
You start out in the Neolithic Age, and some of the cool things about it is that you can change your society and evolve over time instead of just being stuck with, like, oh, we're the, you know, Joe Empire, and now you're gonna stay Yes, really interesting.
So I'm sure some people are trying to blame Trump for the current situation in Afghanistan, and I would agree that that's kind of looking at too small of a picture.
I would say the same of people who'd like to throw complete blame onto Biden.
I think it's a limited scope.
There's plenty of blame to go around to a whole lot of people, but I also kind of believe that assigning appropriate levels of blame isn't something that we're capable of doing on this podcast.
Alex is in a really tough situation here for his narratives because...
Right.
That's one of the territories where we came closest to agreement with the positions that Alex espoused.
In October 2020, Trump announced that he wanted to withdraw all U.S. troops from Afghanistan by Christmas.
I'm not sure what qualifies to Alex as a gradual withdrawal, but considering how long the war had dragged on, it seems like that's not super gradual.
The Taliban celebrated this announcement, mostly because it was in keeping in line with Trump's obligation under the Doha Agreement, which was signed in February 2020 between the United States and the Taliban.
One of the major points of this agreement was the U.S., quote, After his election in April 2021, Biden gave a speech where he laid out his plans as they related to troop withdrawal from Afghanistan.
According to the Doha agreement, troops were supposed to be out within 14 months or by May 1st.
Biden decided to begin the withdrawal then with the goal of being out by September 11th.
Yeah, great.
Yeah.
This is a hard thing to wrap your head around.
From the people who are in Afghanistan right now to the veterans who are wrestling with these developments and their own personal relationship to the people who...
It's staggering, the amount of people who are suffering.
And it's...
I just...
I don't know.
I'm not capable of having the right position on this.
I mean, I think the only major thing that I can say with 100% certainty is that the amount of people screaming about George Bush and Cheney and the military contractors in 2001 is not large enough.
That is the fundamental issue from the very fucking beginning.
And that they're even talking about...
Any other governments beyond the first one first is insane to me.
Who gives a shit about Biden or Trump or Obama at this point?
We have to deal with the original fucking problem, which we never even bothered to deal with.
And one of the things that I think is really difficult and one of the things that I can't really understand even as much as I can read on the subject is, is there any point at which it wouldn't have been a tragedy at this point for us when we withdrew?
I mean, it seems like a fairly simple tactical problem that if you have an insurgent force that's willing to fight until every last one of them is dead, then you can either say, then the only way we win is if we kill all of them, or we stop.
China had not recognized the Taliban as the Islamic Emirate or anything.
Alex is making that up because it's part of what allows him to fit everything into his tidy little conspiracy.
There have been prior news reports suggesting that China would be willing to normalize their relations with the Taliban if they were to take Kabul.
But that has not happened, according to an article in the Associated Press from August.
18th, quote, if we are going to recognize a government, we will have to wait till the government is formed, foreign ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said on Wednesday, quote, only after that will we come to the question of diplomatic recognition.
Yeah, that, I mean, to see, to even say that is like to imply that things are done.
Like the situation in Afghanistan is just, well, they finished, it's over, you know, nobody's going to be opening up very normalized diplomatic relations for a while at least.
No, it's the fall of Western civilization by design, by the globalist, part of their post-industrial Agenda 2030 plan that I've been warning of for decades that we're now in the middle of.
So, here's the headline.
It's on Infowars.com.
It's an RT article.
Biden DHS officially designates anti-lockdown protesters as terrorists.
So this is an important case study that I'd like to make.
I want to make this super clear for everybody.
The headline of this story on RT is, quote, Biden administration warns of threat from anti-lockdown extremists and terrorist sympathizers marking 9-11 anniversary.
Now, of course, if you read the article when it's reposted on Infowars, you see a completely different headline.
Quote, Biden DHS officially designates anti-lockdown protesters as terrorists.
The headline of the RT article is fairly accurate as it relates to the content of the article, but the Infowars version is not.
It only gets worse when you get to the subheadline that's been added on Infowars.
Quote, Biden's attempt to establish Soviet-style dictatorship now official.
This is absolute next level of violating journalistic ethics.
Not only has Alex been found to have not gotten permission to repost other outlets' articles many times in the past, it's very clear that his website is transforming other people's work.
This headline does not match the RT article, and whatever credibility that a website viewer might apply to RT is being stolen by Infowars and subverted for their own purposes.
And it gets worse, too.
Within the body of the article, Infowars has inserted multiple tweets, one by Paul Joseph Watson, which do not appear in the body of the RT article.
There's no editorial indication that these tweets are not part of the original article, and the sole byline on the article is RT.
There's also multiple ads for Alex's dumb pills and an embedded video of someone Owen Schroyer interviewed, but these are less concerning in terms of directly misrepresenting content than just embedding tweets.
unidentified
Uh, Alex, nobody's willing to work with us anymore.
Considering how concerned Alex was about the co-founder of Snopes plagiarizing some articles, I would suggest he get his own house in order, because this is amazingly unethical work.
Like, you have this article in RT, and Alex is completely changing the headline, adding a sub-headline, throwing in some of his own content in the middle of it.
No, it'd be like somebody just reposting one of our episodes with Knowledge Fight guys prove that they're socialist monsters and then cut their own ads into the episode.
And then on page 10 of the National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism came out two months ago.
They made an official policy.
They said any narratives of fraud in the recent general election...
You can put it back on screen for me.
Thanks.
The emboldening impact of the violent breach of the U.S. Capitol, conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and conspiracy theories promoting violence will almost certainly spur someone to try to engage in violence.
Alex is sort of reading this correctly, but he's not quite giving it the context it requires to be understood.
Here's the larger passage that this is from.
"Enduring DVE motivations pertaining to biases against minority populations and perceived government overreach will almost certainly continue to drive DVE radicalization and mobilization of violence.
Newer sociopolitical developments, such as narratives of fraud in the recent general election, the emboldening impact of the violent breach of the U.S. Capitol, conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and conspiracy theories promoting violence will almost certainly spur some DVEs to engage in violence this year.
The document lays out that the two primary varieties of domestic terrorism that are on their radar are racially motivated and anti-government related.
But even with that being said, they point out that "other domestic terrorists may be motivated to violence by single issue ideologies related to abortion, animal rights, environmental, or involuntary celibate violent extremism, as well as other grievances or a combination of ideological influences.
This document doesn't label Trump supporters or any anti-lockdown protesters to be terrorists, and it honestly barely even spends any time on them.
It's a broader picture, but Alex and his friends just can't waste any opportunity to portray themselves as the world's biggest targets and victims, and it's just boring.
Yeah, especially whenever it has been proven over and over and over again that these types of things almost always wind up being more directed towards leftist protesters than anything else.
I mean, I suppose my problem with those documents is always like whenever they're talking about bigot violence, they're not including that most of the DVEs are also the people trying to investigate the protests.
I've done a million hours of studying in the last day.
Oh, I've studied for 36 hours in the past 24. I don't know if this is a weird quibble for me, and maybe I've even used the term in the past, but somehow saying studying hits my ear weird.
So this next clip is another thing that I wanted to use as kind of a teachable moment.
In the same way that looking at that RT headline that Alex has completely changed and added to the body of the text.
This is another piece of rhetorical technique that Alex uses, that if you can recognize some stuff like this, it is very helpful in terms of penetrating his bullshit.
The Taliban are cavemen, and they are terrible people, and they keep little boys as sex slaves.
Something actually the Democratic Party came out in internal memos and said is kind of cool, and they let them have kidnapped children, youngest three, in rape dungeons all over the Afghans.
Stan, I told you about that years ago, but now that's in the news.
So they are a caveman, pedophilic demon creature.
The mainline men are.
And homosexuality is about 90% in Afghanistan, about 50% in the Middle East.
That's why the left loves them.
I mean, hell, they got giant grooming gangs in England.
So what Alex did right there is really indicative of his style, and it's a perfect encapsulation of why it's kind of impossible to even think about talking to him.
What I'm going to give you is an incomplete list of the different claims Alex would need to substantiate before I would allow him to say another sentence.
Patricia Grossman, the Associate Asia Director for Human Rights Watch, told The Telegraph, quote, In Afghanistan, same-sex relations are punishable by 5 to 15 years in prison under a law that bans all sex between individuals not married to each other.
Afghan law specifies that marriage is between a man and a woman.
Three, 50% of the population of the Middle East is homosexual.
Again, this stat is unfounded, and Alex couldn't back this up to save his life.
For some context, in the United States, a recent Gallup poll showed that we're at a record of 5.6% of the population who self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or trans.
The proportion of the population in the Middle East that Alex is claiming are homosexual is absurd.
We covered that on a past episode, and Alex can't back up that story at all.
It has to do with the case of Charlene Downs, who was a girl who went missing in 2003 in the UK.
Two men who ran a fast food spot were tried for her murder and in the trial the prosecutors alleged that the men had discussed chopping up her body and putting it into the kebab.
Wow.
Look at what happens in countries that hold police accountable.
I wouldn't let Alex proceed until he accepted that this was a story that he couldn't prove at all, and he's just yelling detail points.
This is such a wide swath of points about completely unrelated topics that would take a really long time to actually discuss.
And when you took the time to do so, it would become super clear that the version of these stories that Alex is presenting is not real.
When he shoots them off like a Gatling gun, what he's trying to do is create too many points for a listener to even consciously take in, let alone retain.
This is a tactic that demagogues and bullshit artists use pretty regularly.
It's kind of a self-defense mechanism because on the one hand, it makes them appear to know a lot of stuff, and it also makes it so the most critical people probably wouldn't want to engage with them.
If you're trying to debate a point with Alex and he responded with a word salad like that, it would be really difficult to know what point you're supposed to respond to, which Yeah.
Yeah.
You might be able to bluff it and make people just too disoriented to argue with you.
And that's the strategy that's being employed here.
This is a permanent world government, Rockefeller Foundation, cooked up plan called Operation Lockstep.
They're never going to end the lockdowns.
They're just going to tighten them down, loosen them up some, tighten them down more, loosen them up some, through successful approximation until you have a world ID card, global carbon tax systems, your phone tracking everywhere you go.
Forced gene therapies on a monthly basis, whatever the system wants to put into you, whenever they want.
No more FDA process, no more nothing, just absolute total tyranny.
I suppose he could say that it was developed at Porton Down since he says that's the big bioweapon lab that he has in the UK.
But that's not in London.
That's in Wiltshire.
Alex didn't watch 20 hours of this UN World Health Organization conference.
We covered it back when he first discovered this stuff, but just for a little refresher, he's talking about the Global Vaccine Safety Summit that took place in 2019.
Alex didn't watch all of this, nor does he understand the issues they discussed.
He just saw a couple clips that anti-vax lunatic Del Bigtree posted, and then Alex wrote his own story to flesh out the rest of the details.
Whenever this narrative comes up, it's just a matter of me waiting to hear him say the word wobbly.
That's the only hinge word he has to remember this story.
He always says wobbly.
Yep, that's the only way he can jog his memory.
That word is actually used in a speech by Dr. Heidi Larson, the director of the Vaccine Confidence Project.
Dr. Larson gave a speech on the second day of the conference, and it's a bit more complex than the way Alex presents it.
She does say that there are doctors who are expressing less confidence in vaccines and that this is a problem, but she's not saying that those doctors are right.
Alex reports on this conference like it's the UN and the World Health Organization getting together to sound the alarm that doctors around the world are catching on to the scheme and that's what's making them wobbly.
Yeah, and people have new methods of communicating misinformation or incomplete information.
In reality, Dr. Larson's speech was about how trust building is an essential step of moving forward in society.
Here's a clip from her speech that you're never going to hear on Infowars that I think actually pretty well captures a lot of her point.
unidentified
One of our biggest challenges, I think, now is getting rid of the term anti-vax, getting rid of the hostile language, and starting to have more conversations, to be open to questions, to make people feel like...
They shouldn't be judged when they're asking questions.
As crazy as those questions might seem to you, as stupid as they might seem, or as ignorant as they might seem.
This is an interesting perspective that she's bringing in terms of a way to proactively build trust, which is trying to disambiguate the people who are...
Yes, people who have sincere and legitimate concerns and questions that they feel aren't being answered, and people who are willfully misleading people.
Because if you can separate those two groups, you can make a lot of progress in terms of building trust with the people who have questions that maybe you would...
I think what she's saying...
It makes a lot of sense, especially from the position that she is in.
And, you know, at the same time, you can definitely see a doctor having, like, his 30th parent come in the same day being like, I don't know if I should get my kid vaccinated.
And he's like, fuck me, stop reading the internet, and then turns into an asshole.
So Alex saw a couple clips from this summit that were put out by people motivated by a very...
Pretending that he studied the whole summit.
The fake version of that summit that he's established on the show is now like, and it has been for a bit, but it's the explanation for why the globalists needed to do COVID.
Well, it's a form of warfare, and we're living in it.
But I wanted you to hear from somebody specifically who's got one of the main political parties that's having some success in getting people elected in Israel for medical freedom.
And tyranny always comes first with the medical tyranny in the last 200 years.
And look, I'm sure he wants to be eclipsed by you.
This is about survival, humans moving forward, exposing medical tyranny, this fifth-generational warfare of depopulation that is moving against us, because all these top scientists are saying this is going to be a depopulation weapon, and now it's happening, and now.
They lied last year, and the hospitals were totally empty.
The virus itself was just a gain-of-function thing they owned.
Now, the sloughing.
Now, what's in the vaccine creating the prion factories, and I have a stack of mainstream news admitting it, is what's causing massive illnesses all over the place.
And when you go in, they don't tell you, you need ivermectin, you need vitamin C, you need zinc.
That's coming up after Chris Guy leaves us, the layout solutions.
They tell you, they give you nothing in the hospital, not even an IV, and they just wait until you get worse, and then they put a ventilator on you and kill you and get $53,000 for it.
So they called me back and they said, "You're not allowed to talk about the vaccine." I said, "Okay." Because the whole summit's about alternative treatments.
I'll talk about the alternative treatments." So the alternative treatments being so good, we don't need the vaccine.
unidentified
They said, "That's great." Then they called me back about an hour later.
We go, "We haven't had another Zoom chat." I said, "Okay." They said, "Well, you're not allowed to say anything about the vaccine." And you're also not allowed to discuss any form of government civil disobedience.
So you're not allowed to even use your phrase, united not compliance.
I have to wear a mask slightly, sometimes, indoors.
So, all of the posturing I've done about how leftists shouldn't organize people and how strikes are evil and how they're stealing money from people, I'm going to abandon that.
I'm going to say it's time for a general strike for everybody.
Anybody in Canada that's got money, power, resources, and wants to see this end, and is finally ready to get off their ass, get off the sidelines and fight.
The globalists talk about getting rid of Magna Carta, getting rid of the Bill of Rights, getting rid of the Constitution, getting rid of the Arthurian idea.
And so it is Western society, and everybody that lives here, you can be black, you can be brown, you can be black, but because you live in a Christian Arthurian country, despite all the evil, because the Arthurian idea created all the power, so of course evil came and took it over.
I think that's the amazing thing that they've managed to do, like that Fox News and Alex and all of those people, is like...
Yeah, man, the income inequality's out of control.
Yeah, we don't have control over our own lives.
Yeah, the government is fucked up and can't run itself whatsoever.
Yeah, I agree with you, and a general strike is a good way to send a message that we're not going to take this shit anymore, but the people that you are agreeing with are the ones who are the fault of the problem at the beginning!
And that's what the whole sustainable development, smart cities.
Just think Nazis.
But think beyond Nazis.
Think absolutely being starved, being controlled.
And they're going to make it harder and harder, by the way.
For those of us that tell the truth in the future, to be able to stay on air.
So I need to remember to tell the listeners of this broadcast on this Sunday evening that without your support, we're not going to be here.
So I do need money to fight these people.
I'm a thousand percent, a trillion percent, infinity committed here.
But if I don't remember to ask you to buy t-shirts and buy books and buy films and buy high-quality supplements, we won't be on the air.
And as you can see, we're more important than ever.
I'm not trying to brag.
The enemy's got all my phones tapped, they know.
I talk to leaders of governments, all the major talk show hosts, the whole resistance listens to me.
Hell, they call me up, and I'm not bragging.
They just say, Jones, you're like the Oracle.
It's not like I'm the general.
I'm like the Oracle they go to, and the generals go out from that.
And that's a real blessing to be in this position.
And I'm looking for other people to be in that position as well, because that's how we win, is rising people up who have the spirit to challenge this system.
But I need money to fight this, so we've got a big special.
The whole biggest military in the world can't stop the Vietnamese or the Taliban when they don't submit.
Well, how can they make Germany and France and Israel and the U.K. and Canada and the U.S. and Australia and New Zealand submit to permanent martial law when it's a fake vaccine?
It's poison.
I say stop complying and say no now.
Elect new leaders and then arrest Fauci and Gates and try them in Nuremberg too!
unidentified
And then hang their asses after they're convicted!
Their website claims that, quote, this sleek wearable air purifier repels particles such as bacteria, viruses, mold, spore, allergens, and other pathogens from your breathing space for a personal four-foot clean air zone.
Now, Jordan, again, I might have to ask you to mic down for this because it's amazing.
This is the audio that plays on the website whenever you go to the pillowcase sales website.

Thanks for coming to ProjectPillowTalk.com.
Let's get right down to business.
This nation, America, was founded on the Ten Commandments.
The one-room schoolhouses used to teach it.
It was the curriculum in every school and every house.
It's called the Bible, the law of God.
He says, if you love me, keep guard and do my commandments.
If you say you love me, and you're not keeping and guarding and doing my commandments, then the truth is not in you, and you're a liar.
Now then, let's go forward.
Proverbs 6.23, the commandment's the lamp, and the law of God is the light, and he commanded us all to be the light.
Now, if it was the foundation of America in every schoolhouse, in every house, Perhaps you ought to have these pillowcases under your heads immediately.
Remember, it's in the Bible twice with Jacob's pillow.
That's right.
Jacob's pillow and the pillow that Christ slept on in the middle of a storm.
Now, if you think these plagues are going away, it says in the Bible there's going to be plural, plagues.
So we'll talk about the amulet as well.
That's in the Bible twice.
So you're supposed to teach your children when they rise up, when they lay down.
Do you know the commandments?
That's the problem.
Can you say them right now?
All ten commandments for sure.
Well, you don't have to have them in order, but you better have them written on the tables of your mind and your heart.
The only way to save America is to win this spiritual war.
You've got to clobber those demons.
You're not going to do it with a gun or freeze-dried food.
Or an underground bunker.
You cannot walk away as a coward now.
You have to be equipped.
And the equipment you need is step one.
Project Pillow Talk pillowcases underneath your heads.
There is another pillowcase that they sell that says it's Fear Scriptures is the name of it, but I couldn't zoom in on it enough to see what the actual scriptures were or what that means.
