unidentified
I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys saying we are the bad guys.
alex jones
Knowledge fight.
unidentified
Dan and Jordan.
alex jones
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to Knowledge, right?
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes like to sit around, worship the altar of Selene, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Oh, indeed we are, Dan.
unidentified
Jordan.
jordan holmes
Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
jordan holmes
Quick question.
What's your bright spot?
dan friesen
My bright spot today, Jordan, is a yearly ritual around this period, towards the end of the year, holiday season.
Every year, I get a nice package of William Sonoma peppermint bark from my aunt and uncle.
jordan holmes
Oh.
dan friesen
It's very nice.
I just got that, and I ate it all already.
I eat it very fast.
unidentified
Good.
dan friesen
And basically, I'm using this bright spot also to make up for something, and that is that I constantly forget to thank them.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
And so I'm banking on possibly that my mom is listening to this podcast.
jordan holmes
So then she can...
dan friesen
Exactly.
Pass it along to Aunt Sue and Uncle Tim.
jordan holmes
I like it.
dan friesen
I appreciate it.
I like it.
That I ate it already.
jordan holmes
I like the non-confrontational element of not only not texting them, but also not texting your own mom.
dan friesen
I'm busy.
jordan holmes
I like it.
I love it.
dan friesen
I got a podcast to record.
jordan holmes
It's fantastic.
I can kill two birds with one stone.
dan friesen
Maybe three.
jordan holmes
Maybe!
dan friesen
What do you got going on?
jordan holmes
My bright spot today, Dan, is we were guests on the wonderful God-Awful Movies podcast that dropped...
dan friesen
Very confusing movie we had to watch.
jordan holmes
Happy Science is a great religion.
dan friesen
Yeah, we watched The Laws of the Universe.
jordan holmes
Part zero, I believe.
dan friesen
Part zero.
Fun.
jordan holmes
Fantastic.
I am aligned with the Chinese military!
dan friesen
You will not stop yelling that sense.
If you want to understand what that is about, go check out the new episode of God Awful Movies.
Yeah, thanks to those folk for having us on.
unidentified
Fantastic.
dan friesen
Really appreciate it.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
What a delight.
So, Jordan, today we have to do our work.
And that is the most important work that we have ever done in our lives.
unidentified
Of course.
dan friesen
And our careers.
And that is checking in on what's going on with Reset Wars.
jordan holmes
We have to.
dan friesen
We have to.
jordan holmes
It's the most important.
dan friesen
If Alex is going to say that this is the most important thing he's ever done, then I'm going to treat it as such.
jordan holmes
Yeah, we have to.
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So there's been some developments since the last time we checked in, and spoiler alert, it's been released.
jordan holmes
Oh shit, did they transcend?
Have they disappeared into the ether?
dan friesen
I have no reports on that.
Although, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
So, there may have been some transcending that has gone on amongst the Infowarrior community.
Ah.
But I don't have any evidence of it.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
dan friesen
And I think it probably didn't happen.
unidentified
Probably not.
dan friesen
Especially not based on this garbage.
jordan holmes
Doubtful.
dan friesen
But, I have reached an impasse.
Slightly.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
With the reset wars.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
And we'll talk about it over the course of this episode.
I'm up against a wall.
I don't know what to do.
And I'm willing to take advice from the audience on this one.
And we'll talk about all that.
But before we do, let's take a little moment to say thank you to some new wonks.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's a great idea.
dan friesen
So first, Wavy Davey from Virginia Beach, Virginia.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much!
dan friesen
Like wavy gravy.
unidentified
I like it.
dan friesen
Next, Amy, Caleb, Fox, and Leo.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much to the team.
dan friesen
Thank you.
Next, Dino.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thanks, Dino!
dan friesen
Next, separately, double Patriot points till Valentine's Day.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
And I can't listen to Smashing Pumpkins now and not think of the time Billy Corgan was a guest on InfoWars.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much!
dan friesen
Bad news!
He's been on multiple times.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah, when he was saying the world is a vampire, he was being literal.
unidentified
Oh, indeed.
dan friesen
That was not a metaphor.
jordan holmes
Yeah, and he has been subsequently put into a cage and transformed into a rat.
Chimeras are an issue!
dan friesen
Despite his rage.
So, I have a couple things that I want to get out of the way about InfoWars and Reset Wars before we get going.
I have gauged...
The information that's available.
And I have looked at what's been going on with Reset Wars and what's been going on with Alex on his show.
And I am becoming more and more convinced that I was a little bit off.
I don't think that Alex is running Reset Wars.
jordan holmes
Okay, at all.
dan friesen
I don't know for sure, but it does not feel attached to his main product in any way.
jordan holmes
So far, discussing it, it has felt completely separate.
dan friesen
It feels like a gig.
Kind of.
I think the vibe that I get off this is that this is like a Ducey thing.
This is a Jake Ducey thing.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
This is like Tim Burton producing Nightmare Before Christmas, but everybody's like, oh, it's not Tim Burton who made it.
That kind of thing.
dan friesen
No, no.
It was produced by the director of Nightmare Before Christmas.
Wait, wait, wait.
jordan holmes
No, no.
dan friesen
I'm thinking of a totally different thing.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Monkey Bone.
jordan holmes
Monkey Bone.
dan friesen
That movie Monkey Bone was directed by the director of Nightmare Before Christmas and everybody thought it was Tim Burton.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
But he produced it.
jordan holmes
Yes, exactly.
dan friesen
I worked at the movie theater where Monkey Bone came out and you will not believe how many people were so disappointed.
jordan holmes
Furious.
dan friesen
Oh no.
jordan holmes
It took 30 years for the Brendan Fraser to come back after Monkey Bone.
That's how good he is.
dan friesen
Chris Kattan never came back.
jordan holmes
Never.
Never.
And God bless him.
He shouldn't have.
dan friesen
Wait, Corky Romano, was that before or after Monkeybone?
jordan holmes
It was under.
dan friesen
We may never know.
So, yeah, it feels kind of like he's a pitch man or something.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
jordan holmes
Hired gun.
dan friesen
I don't know for sure.
Like I said, it's tough to tell, but...
Everything seems very discordant from the content that he's putting out on his main show.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
The observer effect for everything seems disconnected.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And the second thing is, I need to make a little correction about this, and that is that on our first episode about Reset Wars, I talked about how Jake Doocy has a podcast, and I said that it was on iHeart.
And what I meant to say by that, I articulated this incredibly poorly.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And that was where I found his podcast.
jordan holmes
Gotcha.
dan friesen
And I didn't realize this because we're not on a network and I don't know how these things work.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
But someone reached out and was like, it made it sound like they produced that podcast.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And I realized that that is kind of how it came off.
Totally not my intention, and I did not mean to imply that the company, iHeartRadio, produced Jake Ducey's podcast.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
That was just poorly delivered on my part.
Anyway, look, here's what's going to happen today.
Alex released Reset Wars.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
The other night.
A couple nights ago.
jordan holmes
Dropped it.
dan friesen
From when we were recording.
jordan holmes
Like a Taylor Swift album.
dan friesen
So we'll talk about that a little bit, but before we do, we need to lead up to it.
By looking at three videos that Alex put out promoting the release of Reset Wars.
The first one is a video that he put out called Transcend the Third Dimension with Alex Jones and Reset Wars.
jordan holmes
I like it.
dan friesen
This is a good two minutes long.
Most of this, like these videos, I'm just going to play, just cut at points for us to discuss.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
Not leaving much on the cutting room floor.
And here is where we start.
alex jones
Out of all the archetypal images, the tunnel or the portal is amongst the most powerful.
Because we know we came out of our mother's womb.
jordan holmes
What?
alex jones
We know that portals or tunnels symbolize coming from one state into another.
We instinctively see it as a symbol of the transference of energy.
Because energy is never destroyed.
What?
And it's all available at ResetWars.com.
dan friesen
I think Alex may be like, it'd be so fun if he just heard that Alan Watts was a drunk.
unidentified
He's like, oh wait, I could do that.
dan friesen
I could ramble about nonsense over soft music.
People seem to fucking love that.
jordan holmes
Oh man, I remember reading the Tao of Pooh.
Imagine if it was the reset Tao of Pooh.
We would blow everybody's mind.
dan friesen
Yeah, so what's going on here is that in 2016 there was this picture of Alex walking out of a tunnel looking pretty angry.
And it got turned into a meme.
People probably remember the edited version of it.
jordan holmes
Where there's 30 or 40 Alex's.
dan friesen
There's a bunch of Alex clones.
Alex is recording this at that same tunnel.
So I think that it's on his property somewhere, probably.
I think maybe it's even his driveway.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I can't imagine him going far.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
dan friesen
It keeps popping up.
jordan holmes
How great would it be, though, if that was in some random-ass place in Florida, and they're like, God damn it, we have to fly all the way to Florida, otherwise we're not going to piggyback on this meme.
dan friesen
Tunnel is too good.
We can't find a good tunnel nearby in Occupy, Texas.
jordan holmes
I never looked at a tunnel and thought, wow, that reminds me of vaginas.
dan friesen
It's the womb.
jordan holmes
It didn't occur to me to drive beneath a mountain and go, ooh, this is warm.
dan friesen
Look at that womb.
I want to go through it, because it's like a womb.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
Yeah, strange.
I don't know what it means to say that the tunnel is one of the most archetypal images.
Because I think you could come up with a lot of different...
Archetypal images.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
dan friesen
A big hole.
I don't know how you rank them, but I guess Tunnel is up there.
jordan holmes
Top five archetypal image.
dan friesen
Also, the idea that energy can't be destroyed or created, only changed.
I don't know if that's quantum mechanics.
That's just the first law of thermodynamics.
It's the law of conservation of energy.
jordan holmes
It's just how it works.
dan friesen
Yeah.
I don't know what he's trying to say here, but it's confusing me right off the bat.
jordan holmes
And the social engineers understanding the first law of thermodynamics is wonderful.
dan friesen
Great.
jordan holmes
I appreciate that.
I'm confused as to how they can orchestrate movements based around that.
dan friesen
So do most scientists.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I would say all of them.
jordan holmes
What can I do?
dan friesen
Yeah, I think that quantum mechanics and stuff probably...
A lot of the understanding of it relies on stuff that was built out of the understanding of the more basic physics.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Sure?
jordan holmes
I mean, to my ears, I am getting the vibe of people who have just like...
Taken the pseudoscience of the four humors and just changed it with quantum mechanics, you know?
Like, well, if your bile is out of alignment, then you're in trouble.
Or it's like, if your point of view on quantum mechanics is out of whack, then you're in trouble.
Like, that kind of thing.
dan friesen
Yeah, I just feel like, generally speaking, it's just kind of, like, bluffing depth.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And this comes across in this next passage.
alex jones
I hope you'll join me at ResetWars.com and discover the secret that has empowered me to such incredible levels and has empowered so many other people.
Because you see, a lot of individuals, a lot of souls discover this information, but they decide to use it for evil against others.
They decide to use it to keep others in the dark and not to enlighten and not to empower them.
And that, my friends, is the ultimate sin.
We are literally talking about good versus evil and that fight.
That's what Reset Wars is all about, part one and part two.
Spirit Wars, Mind Wars.
dan friesen
Just a word to the wise.
Don't fall for it when people act like this.
jordan holmes
Yeah, don't do that.
Don't do this.
dan friesen
When there's some kind of an unspoken piece of information that has transformed and empowered someone's lives, but also a lot of people have found out about it and they're using it for evil, but I'm not going to talk about what it is or...
jordan holmes
Well...
dan friesen
Don't believe them.
jordan holmes
No, you can't.
dan friesen
That's a scam.
jordan holmes
No, it's not a scam.
You're just not believing hard enough.
dan friesen
I'm believing real hard that this is a scam.
jordan holmes
This reminds me so much.
Here's the problem that I'm having right now.
One of my favorite Godspeed, You Black Emperor songs is essentially...
dan friesen
The tunnel is a metaphor?
jordan holmes
I mean, it's not that, but it's really close.
It's like an eight-minute song.
I can't remember if it's BBF3 or Moya or something like that.
But it is this lunatic poet.
Who's just come out of getting a fucking parking ticket and going off on Sovereign Citizen shit all put to Godspeed You Black Emperor music.
And it's really, really good and atmospheric.
And it sounds suspiciously like this, but this is way, way worse.
Because Godspeed isn't involved.
If Godspeed and Alex Jones had a tie-in, I might be fucked.
I might have no idea where to land morally.
dan friesen
Well...
Alex, you hear that?
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, get on it.
You've got one way.
dan friesen
You could swing Jordan.
jordan holmes
One way to inoculate yourself from me.
dan friesen
So here's the end of this video.
This is pretty funny.
You'll notice a change in audio a little bit, and it'll be pretty easy to figure out what's going on.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
Find out more and start your journey today at ResetWars.com.
You don't have to stay with them.
You don't have to be a slave.
unidentified
They want your consciousness.
alex jones
They want your soul.
They want your free will.
Come with me.
Reach out to God as I did.
The Holy Spirit will empower you.
unidentified
Join us in eternity.
alex jones
Whoa.
unidentified
In the third dimension.
alex jones
Whoa.
unidentified
In the third dimension.
dan friesen
Yeah, so that was Alex yelling from the other side of the tunnel.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
A little echo.
jordan holmes
How do we make this a little bit more dramatic?
Let's give him one of those novelty microphones we give four-year-olds.
dan friesen
No, no, he's yelling from across the tunnel.
jordan holmes
Sure, no, I understand.
dan friesen
He's at the end of the tunnel, silhouetted.
jordan holmes
Amazing.
dan friesen
Come with us!
jordan holmes
Just beautiful.
dan friesen
That was disappointing.
That video, at the end of it, I don't think I learned anything.
I have no idea what the hell this Reset Wars is about.
It's vaguely spiritual.
It's vaguely based on hypothetical quantum mechanics.
And it has something to do with transcending the third dimension.
And also it seems a little creepier than...
jordan holmes
It's very creepy.
dan friesen
Seems a little more culty than some of the previous promos.
jordan holmes
It's a lot more openly culty.
dan friesen
The Alex standing at the end of a tunnel and being like, come with us.
Like, that's...
Yeah, that's upsetting.
jordan holmes
I assume he's bathed in a golden backlight.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
It's very unsatisfying.
But luckily, Alex released another video about Reset Wars plugging the eventual launch.
And I should say the launch was...
Postponed a number of times.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
This second one was titled, Tune into God, The Earth, and ResetWars.com.
Even without starting the video up, I have to guess that it's going to be pretty grandiose, considering that Reset Wars is being put up there with a pantheon of important things like God and the Earth.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
This is the least viewed preview for Reset Wars, and it starts with Alex talking to a camera in a wooded area that I'm going to guess is his backyard.
unidentified
Sure.
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
He's not going far for this one.
This is no meme tunnel that we're fucking around with here.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
So here's where we're at on TuneInToGodTheEarthAndResetWars.com.
jordan holmes
A little grandiose.
alex jones
How do you think butterflies or hummingbirds or geese?
and thousands of miles back to where their parents were born to then mate and lay eggs and have progeny.
All the scientists now know it's electrochemical cells in the brain and in the spinal cords that actually navigate according to the electromagnetic frequency and ley lines in the earth.
jordan holmes
That's just one of the ways.
alex jones
And it's genetically transferred in the instincts to lower animals and us.
All these trees, all these living things, the worms in the ground, the birds in the trees, everything is electrochemical conduits broadcast.
dan friesen
Oh boy.
Right at the gate.
So this is coming out swinging, I would say, and already Alex is way off on a bunch of stuff.
The question of how birds know how and when to migrate is really interesting stuff.
It's a crazy field of study.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
The mechanisms that are involved for birds aren't the same as what's going on with butterflies, but I guess they're both situations that involve migration.
jordan holmes
Migration is interesting.
You might as well call it all the same thing.
dan friesen
Where Alex loses me is that he's implying that geese and hummingbirds and butterflies migrate to the same place where their parents were born in order to maiden lay eggs, and that's not true.
What Alex is actually referring to is a phenomenon called natal homing, which is where an animal will return to where they were born in order to reproduce.
This is not necessarily prevalent in geese or hummingbirds.
The animals Alex probably meant to use were salmon and turtles, which are better examples.
jordan holmes
Those are the two big ones.
dan friesen
This is really crazy stuff, and it's something that's going to be far beyond my ability to explain succinctly here, but there are a few things that I need to point out.
This has nothing to do with ley lines, which aren't even real, the way Alex is using the term.
jordan holmes
Totally real.
dan friesen
It does involve magnetic fields and the ability that animals like turtles and salmon as well as pigeons have called magnetoreception.
The exact process of how this works is something that scientists haven't really reached a consensus on.
According to an article in the Smithsonian, some believe that it has to do with proteins in the retina that can detect magnetic information, while another hypothesis is that, quote, microscopic particles of the mineral magnetite sit at certain receptor cells in the ear or behind the nose and work as biological compasses.
It's entirely possible that some humans may also have very subtle levels of magnetoreception.
But this is far from being proven in any repeatable experiments.
Also, a number of scientists don't seem to have much faith that even if humans are physiologically capable of detecting changes in electromagnetic fields, that it really means anything.
There was a study a few years back done by a geophysicist at Caltech.
This guy wanted to know just simply whether human brains were even capable of responding to changes in the magnetic fields around them, leaving aside how it could happen if it was happening.
He put people in a dark box where he could adjust the field inside, and quote, the experimenters recorded dips in the amplitude of alpha brainwaves in a third of the participants.
There are a ton of caveats, but even so, this is a pretty interesting result for this trial.
But what does it mean?
Does it mean that we have electromagnetic abilities that are dormant and we don't even realize it?
Probably not, and it might not even mean that we have what you'd traditionally call a sense.
In this article in the Smithsonian, Thorsten Ritz, a biophysicist at UC Irvine, had a great quote.
Quote, if I were to stick my head in a microwave and switch it on, I would see effects on my brainwaves.
That doesn't mean we have a microwave sense.
Kind of a decent way to articulate it.
jordan holmes
That is the definition of a pithy comment.
Very pith.
dan friesen
Articles about this study were making the rounds in 2019 and I could easily see Alex reading a headline and just sort of writing his own story about it and I think that might be what's going on.
Again, this is all fascinating stuff and it's pretty exciting to see where this research will continue toward but the stuff Alex is saying is a little much.
He's taking a kernel of something and then extrapolating it out far past the point where it would be like him standing on solid ground.
Also, at the end, he seems to be getting into epigenetics, where the instincts of past generations are inherited to future generations, but I don't know exactly how that applies or what his point even is.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I've always enjoyed learning about migration, and the thing that I've learned repeatedly is every time somebody tells me how migration works, it will change.
So I don't trust how migration works beyond magic, and then whenever they figure it out, I'm going to be so excited to know.
But until then, it's magic.
dan friesen
A lot of it also has to do with the sun.
See?
Positioning of the sun.
A lot of it has to do with internal clocks.
Right!
That, like, butterflies have in their antennae.
jordan holmes
How do they have internal clocks?
They're not that big.
dan friesen
You've got tiny, tiny clocks.
That's how.
So, look, the globalists, you know, they want you to plug into the Matrix.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
You know what I'm saying?
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
alex jones
Everything is electrochemical conduits, broadcasting, connected to the sun and the universe and all the third dimension.
And out of all these creatures, we are the most transcendent, the most connected to God.
And the third dimension is just a jumping off point to wider, greater, more complex dimensions.
And that's what the quantum physics and all of it shows.
And the system wants you in home, watching the proto-matrix screens, sucking you into their VR reality, because that binds you more to the third dimension.
And more to even lower dimensions.
It's artificial.
dan friesen
I'm still, like, really wrestling to try and figure out what he's saying.
Like, what's the point of this?
What are you driving at?
jordan holmes
You can do anything.
As long as you give me money.
dan friesen
It does feel that way.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Because we've got...
Okay, so...
The globalists want you to stay connected to the third dimension by way of the Matrix or whatever.
But...
If you're someone like Alex, then you understand the way that geese and butterflies migrate has to do with electromagnetic things in their brain.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So if only you do the stuff that Alex does, you could migrate.
I guess?
jordan holmes
It does feel like what his end game on that is, is an explanation.
I love it.
An explanation of like, you know.
Stuff is weird.
What if we just...
We're like...
Time.
dan friesen
If we had the same abilities that he's describing in, like, birds and butterflies, like...
Okay, now we don't need GPS.
jordan holmes
I mean, what is a high school reunion but a return to your home to breed, right?
dan friesen
Well, I guess, but you can't get there.
You're not going to be able to just find your way from thousands of miles away.
jordan holmes
You do have to Google Maps it.
That's true.
dan friesen
So I think there's a pretty strong sense that this is just like, go outside.
That seems to be what the point of this is.
jordan holmes
Nature's dope, right?
dan friesen
Yeah.
alex jones
If you...
Master the third dimension, you're going to transcend or become aware of the transcendence that's already happened.
And that's why they try to lock you in the five senses.
They're now trying to narrow those five senses down and down and down.
You're looking at a tiny point of sand and worshipping it as the entire existence when really it's an artificial system the globalists have constructed.
Open up your mind.
Open up your soul.
That's why all the studies show that forest bathing, walking in the forest, walking in the fields, just the sound of a babbling stream or brook is hundreds of times better than their psychotropic drugs that are actually destructive.
So just...
dan friesen
So some studies have shown that forest bathing can have a positive effect on people's mental state, but these studies are far from conclusive.
And a review of existing research in the 2017 issue of the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found some complicating biases and methodological problems with the setups of these previous studies that had been done on the health benefits of forest bathing.
And some of them were like...
People went out and had to walk in the forest for four hours.
That could have a positive effect on your well-being, but also you have things to do.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's not really a long-term solution.
dan friesen
Yeah, but generally speaking, people do agree that it helps your mental state to spend time outside.
Yeah.
If Alex is just saying that people should spend time outside, I guess that's cool.
Like, if Reset Wars is just scolding his audience to get away from the TV and take a walk in a park, that probably can't hurt.
I'm sure some of the pseudo-mystical nonsense he's attaching to it is, you know, I don't know if that's helpful, but at this point, I guess the worst that's going to come out of this is like an info warrior trying really hard to tell him what a worm is telling him, or believing he can use some internal superpower to find the spot where he was conceived.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I guess that's what we're doing.
jordan holmes
It feels a little bit like he's redoing the guru movement from the 60s for far-right conservatives, you know?
dan friesen
And a little...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
Like Vuffner, as Ken Kesey called him, used to have all of these people come get into a hot tub with him and he'd tell him about spirituality and be like, I'm a psychologist.
dan friesen
But again, I don't think Alex is doing it.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
I don't think he's that committed to this.
jordan holmes
He's not a hypnotist.
No.
dan friesen
I don't.
This does not feel connected to what's going on in his show generally, let's say.
jordan holmes
I mean...
But the writing of what he's saying still feels so disjointed and improvised.
It's like somebody was like, okay, let me give you the bullet points and we're going to Will Ferrell this movie.
dan friesen
And you can tell that it's edited too.
You can tell as Paul Joseph Watson style jumps in the audio.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Which is...
Shocking.
jordan holmes
And annoying.
dan friesen
Well, it is annoying, but it's also like, this is the best you got after that level of editing?
jordan holmes
Finally, I've been asking you for two takes!
You do it, and this is what we get?
dan friesen
Not good.
Also, when I was saying that, like, what's the worst that could happen is, like, InfoWarriors trying to listen to worms or whatever.
That is the case, except for, like, Alex is using this ideology to demonize and invalidate medical interventions for mental health issues.
Like, stigmatizing people taking appropriate steps to address mental health challenges is just unacceptable.
Like, telling someone who's dealing with a mental health crisis that they just need to listen to a babbling stream, that's the equivalent of telling someone who just broke their leg in a football game to rub dirt on it.
It's just...
Really, really unhelpful, and all it'll do is make people less likely to take mental health issues seriously.
And blame themselves when listening to a brook doesn't help.
Listening to a stream.
jordan holmes
As somebody who was very much instructed to treat mental health that way all the way up until, I don't know, yesterday, it is brutal.
dan friesen
Sucking it up doesn't help?
jordan holmes
It is...
Brutal.
And it fucks with your head for the rest of your life, because you feel like you can't share stuff with other people, because then they're just gonna say, hey, suck it up.
So you're like, fine, I'll suck it up then, and I'll stay silent, and then later I'll die of cancer.
dan friesen
Yeah, it demotivates people to even experience what they're feeling, or look for help when they're feeling something where they need help.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
And that's just, I think that...
I mean, I don't want to say evil, but that's awful.
It's just awful behavior.
jordan holmes
It took years for me to even talk to my partner and be like, hey, I'm fucked, man.
So what are you going to do?
dan friesen
Well, I'm going to play you another clip.
jordan holmes
Yay!
dan friesen
That's what I'm going to do.
jordan holmes
Hooray!
dan friesen
You're fucked.
jordan holmes
Damn it!
alex jones
So just take in that energy of the universe that God made and commune with God through the universe that God made.
I don't worship the environment like an animist.
But I do worship God through these antennas, through these conduits.
jordan holmes
Like an animist.
alex jones
That connect me to God and God's incredible consciousness.
I am not God.
But my consciousness is God at another level experiencing reality.
And that is to be one with Christ.
dan friesen
So I'm listening to some of this and it's starting to feel like a little bit like poorly understood Gnosticism.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like there are some vibes that I'm getting that are pretty Gnostic.
A whole lot of the ideas of what Reset Wars seems to be based on trace back pretty neatly to Gnostic cosmology.
For one, this whole thing seems to be based on the idea that there's something within us that's more than our physical selves, and in fact, we're trapped in these physical bodies.
According to Gnostic thought, each person has a divine spark within them, which is eternal, compared to the physical body, which has a short shelf life.
From Jake Doocy's interview on Alex's show and Alex's comments about the whole thing so far, it really seems like their goal is to wake people up to this reality and that the globalists have been trying to keep humans in the dark about the fact that they are actually spirits.
This is a direct parallel to the Gnostic belief about the Demiurge and the Archons.
The Demiurge is the creator of this physical reality, which is actually a false reality, and there's the real reality of the Pleroma and the god of fullness behind it.
jordan holmes
Wasn't the Archangel Michael supposed to be a Demiurge or whatever in Catholic mysticism?
dan friesen
I'm not sure, but in this case, it's just the creator of the physical world.
alex jones
Right.
dan friesen
It's the goal of the Demiurge and his minions, these Archons, to keep humanity from recognizing that they contain this divine spark which connects them with the ultimate reality that exists beyond the false reality that we are in.
Even all of Alex's talk here about how the system wants to keep you in your home watching the Matrix screens because that keeps us in touch with the third dimension, that's exactly the strategy that the bad guys in Gnosticism use.
From Gnosis.org, quote, Humans are generally ignorant of the divine spark resident within them.
This ignorance is fostered in human nature by the influence of the false creator and his archons, who together are intent on keeping men and women ignorant of their true nature and destiny.
Anything that causes us to remain attached to earthly things serves to keep us in enslavement to these lower cosmic rulers.
Sounds very similar to exactly what Alex is saying.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And now, Alex is talking about how his consciousness is God experiencing itself, and this, too, is pretty Gnostic at its core.
In the Secret Book of John, the story is told of the Gnostic creation of the universe, and everything essentially spirals outward from the central deity, the One, the Father of Fullness.
That's the beginning of everything.
This One views himself in a wellspring of living water, and the experience of seeing him and experiencing himself gives birth to Barbelo, the embodied Right.
Right.
unidentified
Then again, also, it could just be a situation where Alex is misremembering the Carl Sagan quote, we are a way for the cosmos to know itself.
dan friesen
So it could be a little bit of...
And mix it all.
jordan holmes
Put it all in there.
It's all in there somewhere.
dan friesen
I feel like imagining that Alex is actually aware of and able to grasp Gnosticism is probably giving him a bit too much credit.
It's interesting, though, how much of an overlap there is with a lot of these ideas that are being articulated in Reset Wars, but maybe it shouldn't be that surprising.
I don't think that it's indicative of all people who follow Gnosticism, but there's a bit of history of Gnostic ideas being used to prop up the worldviews of white supremacists and Nazis.
You can kind of easily see how Nazis might use the creation story to aid in their demonization of Jews.
Some followers of esoteric branches of Nazi ideology, like Miguel Serrano, believe that the demiurges is the god of the Old Testament, and consequently they believe the Jewish people are Hooray!
I feel like being interested in Gnosticism or Gnostic ideas isn't anything that should make someone be suspicious or whatever.
It's no big deal.
But when it's combined with the rest of the stuff Alex believes and preaches to his audience, it becomes a little bit...
I'm not sure.
I'm not into it.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I think it's bad.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I say, and here's my pitch, nobody's picked up on it so far, but I think we should just return to Sumerian gods exclusively.
Like, let's just do Enki and Gilgamesh, and let's just get it all done, stay where we were, we were crushing it, and then it all went to shit!
We don't even know how to speak Sumerian anymore, see?
dan friesen
Well, I know one guy who does, Eric Von Daniken.
He knows how to speak it perfectly.
Yeah.
He does not.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
So, nature's good.
jordan holmes
I've heard.
dan friesen
Yep.
It's good.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
So just take in the energy of the third dimension.
The natural goodness.
And then think about the energy in Times Square.
Think about the energy at some horrible rap concert where people are all killing each other and dying.
Think about the energy at a boxing match.
It's lower third dimensional, second dimensional energy.
And I'm not saying that a boxing match isn't part of humans and part of who we are.
But they're trying to keep us only in that animal state.
dan friesen
This is stupid.
Isn't Alex's best friend Joe Rogan primarily famous because he was a commentator for the UFC?
It's not like his meathead bros that make up his fan base loved news radio.
Maybe they liked Fear Factor, but I don't believe that's the primary reason he has an audience.
Also, there's an interesting contradiction that Alex is presenting here that I find very weird.
He constantly talks about how the globalists want to convince you that you're dirty and bad.
That as a human, you're doing something wrong.
But then, here, he seems to be juxtaposing the beauty and goodness of nature with the ugliness and evil of Times Square.
But ultimately, what is Times Square other than a representation of what humans can create?
It seems like he's trying to say that humans who decide to build cities that aren't to his liking are dirty and bad, but I'm not sure what he's basing that on.
It just seems very weird.
jordan holmes
Yeah, generally speaking, the original sin, people like to just define whatever it is they don't like as spiraling off of that.
So that way you don't have to worry about whether another god said it or whatever.
You're just like, see, you're ugly and evil, duh!
dan friesen
Like, I understand that there's maybe something that speaks to a deeper aesthetic pleasingness about nature than, let's say, buildings.
Sure.
jordan holmes
I mean, you know, I'm an indoor kid.
I prefer cities to, obviously, you and I have discussed me going outside many a time, and I'm a ginnick.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
So I find his spirituality to be ridiculous.
I'm constantly reminded of the achievements of mankind.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You know?
dan friesen
But I was also trying to think, like, what is it about Times Square that Alex is opposed to?
jordan holmes
New York.
dan friesen
Because it's not consumerism.
jordan holmes
No, no.
dan friesen
Which is what a lot of people probably would take issue with.
jordan holmes
I would say...
dan friesen
He's not really opposed to that.
It can't be pollution, which would be a problem that some people would have.
He doesn't really believe that's a problem.
jordan holmes
I'm going to go with melting pot.
dan friesen
That could be a part of it.
Liberal city.
If Times Square was in...
Fucking Florida and DeSantis was ruling over it.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
We wouldn't have a problem with the fact that, oh, it's stressful.
There's a lot of people walking around.
jordan holmes
Right.
Well, I mean, if your basic underpinning of your philosophy is that the races are unequal and can never possibly coexist as equals, then Times Square would be the most threatening thing in the world to you because it clearly shows you're wrong.
dan friesen
That might be.
That's why you gotta go to nature.
alex jones
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Nobody there to make you feel wrong.
dan friesen
The globalists are creating virtual reality, right?
And I think Alex has a weird theory about why they're doing it.
alex jones
Globalists claim they're building all this VR to get us out of our warlikeness and to make us transcend, but all of the research and evidence shows in their own documents are trying to suppress us and make us depressed and alone in the cult, so we come to them and submit to them and do whatever they say on the Great Reset so they'll let us go outside a little if our smartphone says we can with a social credit score.
dan friesen
I'm going to need a source on the globalists claiming that they're creating VR in order to make us less warlike.
jordan holmes
I have not heard anyone say that.
dan friesen
Yeah, I was looking up some of this.
Obviously, there are applications that are possible of VR technology and therapy settings for children who have problems with aggression.
jordan holmes
Absolutely.
dan friesen
I think some of that research is pretty exciting, but I don't think that's what Alex is talking about.
jordan holmes
I'm sure that would be huge for, like, immersion therapies or something along those lines where you can actually expose people to their fears.
dan friesen
Just imagine if you're scared of bees.
jordan holmes
Totally, without actually having to, yeah.
dan friesen
You go in a virtual reality thing and you're able to hang out with a giant bee who's cool.
jordan holmes
What if he had a lot of things to say?
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
He's very charming.
dan friesen
Smoke a joint with a bee?
jordan holmes
Well, basically we're just describing Alice in Wonderland at this point.
dan friesen
Well, you could do that in virtual reality.
And then you're no longer afraid of bees.
In fact, you think they're your friends.
jordan holmes
One thing that always bums me out about people who are obsessed with the fact that we live in a simulation or are obsessed with believing that we live in a simulation is how disappointing VR is in a simulation if we're essentially VR.
Like, what a bummer to have shitty VR inside the best VR.
dan friesen
But I hear it's gotten a lot better.
I haven't checked in in quite a while in terms of, you know...
jordan holmes
I haven't tried VR in a long time.
dan friesen
I haven't tried, like, the Oculus or whatever.
I've heard some gaming stuff is pretty cool at this point.
jordan holmes
Let's do it.
dan friesen
I get what you're saying, too.
jordan holmes
It's so disappointing.
dan friesen
Yeah.
But also, if we are in a simulation, who gives a shit if we enter a second one?
Like another one?
It doesn't really matter.
jordan holmes
Yeah, at that point, it's just turtles all the way down.
dan friesen
Exactly.
Like, if we're in a simulation and we create this alternate reality that Mark Zuckerberg is running or whatever, and we're all forced to enter it, great!
Enter that simulation and start yelling at people in there.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
Nobody's being bothered.
It's like when people build a video game inside of Minecraft, and you're like, fine!
That's a great way to play it, I don't care.
dan friesen
Get inside that simulation early.
Set yourself up as like a savior figure.
Boom.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
It's like Snow Crash.
It's like Hero.
You gotta be there.
You gotta be on the ground floor of the net and then you're good to go.
dan friesen
There you go.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Now, we talked already about how this is clearly there's cuts.
There's multiple takes going on.
I would have cut this.
I would have done a second take on this for sure.
jordan holmes
The whole thing.
alex jones
This is the Reset Wars.
The Great Reset is...
The old world order, the tyranny, trying to suppress the Great Awakening.
That's why we've launched Reset Wars.
dan friesen
Okay, so the Old World Order is folks like Klaus Schwab and the tyrants, right?
And they're trying to stop Alex and his buddies who are engaged in the Great Awakening.
And from this, one might be inclined to say that if Alex and his buddies were successful, they'd be creating a New World Order.
It would certainly be a World Order that was new and different from the Old World Order.
I don't know what else you'd call it than a New World Order.
jordan holmes
I'm so frustrated because just a few months ago, he called them the New World Order.
dan friesen
No, they're the Old World Order.
jordan holmes
Well, now they're the Old...
World order!
I mean, that is how time works, you know?
You can't be the new guy all your life.
dan friesen
Cannot believe he wouldn't just be like, oh wait, hold on.
jordan holmes
We're making a new world order.
dan friesen
I'm saying something that's probably going to sound really bad given all of my ideas.
Oh well.
So this video ends with a call to action, of course.
jordan holmes
Naturally.
alex jones
Join me now.
Join me today.
Take action at ResetWars.com.
The globalist hope that you don't take action.
I hope and pray you do.
You've got free will, so use it right now at ResetWars.com.
dan friesen
I have free will, and I'm not going to join you at Reset Wars.
How about that?
jordan holmes
I think the only way I would join you at Reset Wars is if my free will was taken away.
dan friesen
Exactly.
If I were somehow forced to do it, then maybe I would join your dumb shit.
So, time's going on.
Alex is putting out these promos for Reset Wars, and I don't know what it means.
I don't get any sense of what this is, except for it's like esoteric, pseudo-spiritual babble.
I don't even know what's going on.
It's just buzzwords.
Maybe detached religious concepts, Infowars paranoia, all being mixed into a stew.
The only through line that I can find is he's desperate to get people to sign up.
That's basically all I've got.
And that feeling of desperation got even pronounced when Alex released another promo for Reset Wars that was titled, How Joe Rogan's Awakening Affects the Great Reset.
jordan holmes
It does!
dan friesen
Eagle-eyed observers noted that this headline used the wrong spelling of effects.
And as such, the technical meaning of the title of this video is that Joe Rogan's awakening caused the Great Reset.
I imagine that isn't what Alex was trying to convey.
I'm pretty sure this is just another case of bad editorial at Infowars and Alex doing everything he can to constantly remind people that he's friends with Joe Rogan and use that association to sell his bullshit.
jordan holmes
You got it.
dan friesen
By this point, two promos in, I was not expecting much.
But this is the video where Alex is contemplating the flower that we put a Twitter picture up.
So I couldn't resist this.
He's looking at this dumb flower.
So anyway, here's where we start on this one.
alex jones
In a world.
If you study what we call evil throughout human history.
What we call it.
Blowheart.
It is jealous and envious of innocence.
And what is innocence?
It is new life that has not experienced the universe yet and that has the core programming that God gave it.
They want to torture and punish that so that they can try to crack their way in and create new personalities or new software they're able to place.
dan friesen
So this goes to a bizarre notion that I've seen in other Reset Wars promotional materials.
And that has to do with the idea that when you're born, you're a blank slate.
Like, there is just nothing going on.
And everything that is bad or whatever is stuff that has been foisted upon you.
Like negative feelings, self-doubt, depression.
These are all viruses and bad programming that has been put upon you by the globalists.
It's dumb.
jordan holmes
I mean, it goes counter to the thing he's supposed to believe.
dan friesen
The epigenetics and stuff?
jordan holmes
Not just that, but like original sin and all of this stuff.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
It runs counter pretty heavily.
dan friesen
Yeah, there's a lot of counter points that Alex himself would just bring up.
But yeah, so look, the bad guys hate innocence because it's new life that hasn't been corrupted by their...
Their systems, yes.
Whatever.
And you know who else is innocent and, like, just totally cool?
jordan holmes
Stelter?
dan friesen
Rogan.
Oh!
jordan holmes
Alex.
dan friesen
Yeah, they're cool.
jordan holmes
Interesting.
alex jones
People ask, Jones, why are you so popular?
Well, it's the same reason Joe Rogan is so popular.
He's the most alive person I've ever known.
I've known him now 23 years.
And he's an amazing renaissance man.
He's not just the top podcaster.
He's not just an incredible shot with a gun or a bow.
He's also a great dad.
He's also a really incredible comic.
He's not just an amazing jiu-jitsu or taekwondo champion.
And celebrating Joe's success is a celebration of us all.
So when I see my enemies demonizing me and lying about me and attacking me, it's because they are threatened by the fact that we have life and we have energy.
And the reason we do is we're still innocent.
We're following the innate programming that God gave us, and we're reaching up into the infinite.
dan friesen
It's just funny to think back on, like, well, I mean, first of all, all this is just nonsense ideas where he's like, oh, Rogan's so great.
And it's really about me, too.
When I'm talking about Rogan, I'm talking about me.
jordan holmes
Why are you so popular, Alex Jones?
Well, for the same reason that the most popular podcaster in the world is popular.
dan friesen
Because he's so wonderful.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
Great dad.
I don't know if you remember, but back when he was trying to go sneaky snake and expose Joe, part of it was talking about Joe's kids.
Which was gross.
jordan holmes
Very personal attacks on Joe's children.
dan friesen
Yeah, let's listen to a few clips from February 5th.
jordan holmes
I think that's great.
dan friesen
2019, when Alex was going to war with Rogan.
alex jones
And then, it's this whole thing, like, I still want to hug you.
No, Joe, I want you to be my enemy.
I don't like you.
I'm guilty I was ever nice to you.
I knew you were bad news 20 years ago.
I should have ignored that.
You're a charming guy.
I want war, Joe.
I want war.
I don't want to be nice.
I want to be cleansed of you.
Comprende?
dan friesen
Oh, what changed?
Maybe that was when Joe wasn't letting you on his show and then he let you on.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
He's always been the greatest guy in the world as opposed to, I knew your bad news 20 years ago.
Guy who won't let me on his show.
unidentified
Where?
jordan holmes
Yeah, it doesn't feel like Alex ever grew out of that seven-year-old level of understanding where it's like, I want to go outside.
No, you have to go do your homework.
I hate you!
Fine, go outside.
You're my favorite person in the world!
dan friesen
I have no Rogan!
jordan holmes
Exactly, yes.
I'm running away!
dan friesen
I want war with you!
jordan holmes
War!
War.
dan friesen
So I think that this video is largely just vague platitudes.
Essentially, I just think they mean nothing.
alex jones
We're still innocent.
We're following the innate programming that God gave us and we're reaching up into the infinite.
And it's that connection that people are attracted to.
And that's why the globalists are trying to suppress that.
Because the will of the people is to come together and to experience life together and to build incredible art and culture and more life together.
That's what we are as creators.
And that's why there's an attack on the sacred coming together of men and women and the sacred family.
Because families aren't just nuclear families.
They are cultures and societies and peoples.
And the globalists are just a...
All of that.
They're annihilating people's consciousness and will and connection to the infinite so they can impose their enslavement system, their metaverse.
dan friesen
None of this really even means anything.
It's just him saying things.
And also, if humans are builders, what's the problem with Times Square?
jordan holmes
I don't know.
The important thing about being a cult leader is be as vague as possible.
And then when somebody is like, what are you talking about?
You say...
What do you feel like I'm talking about?
And then whenever they say some bullshit back at you, you're like, see, the revelation is upon you as well.
dan friesen
Even better thing to do is just be super vague, full of nonsense, and then never make yourself available to be questioned.
jordan holmes
Well, that one's good, but you're not going to get a strong cult with that kind of behavior.
You're going to get a very weak field.
It's like quantum mechanics, Dan.
dan friesen
I don't think that Alex is looking for a strong cult.
I think he's looking for a couple bucks.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's true.
He can get a lot of money.
dan friesen
Alex makes a bizarre claim here.
He seems to be saying that the globalists are trying to force VR goggles onto children.
And I see no evidence of this being the case.
alex jones
So instead of just using psychological warfare for the TV and the culture to create these new false constructs, it's way worse with the metaverse because now they control all the input and are forcing the VR goggles onto children's heads and forcing the imposition of this real-life matrix onto them so that they can crush and destroy the seed that is in every child of the potential of the universe, as Muhammad Gandhi says.
And that's the information we lay out in recent wars.
dan friesen
That's not a Gandhi quote.
But yeah, I don't know how I feel about the notion that kids are being forced into VR goggles.
jordan holmes
I know that all you have to do to switch things up as far as fake quotes go is, you know, far right, Thomas Jefferson said it.
New agey, Gandhi said it, baby.
That's all you gotta do.
dan friesen
It's a pretty good system.
jordan holmes
It's simple.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Keep it easy.
unidentified
So do you think they're forcing VR goggles on kids?
dan friesen
I can't get off this subject.
jordan holmes
I will tell you, here's the image in my head that popped in.
Because of the way that Alex has built these people up, I get the sense that they don't even have the ability to control it.
If you put a globalist inside of a cage and then let him out with a bunch of greased children around, they'd chase him with a VR helmet and be like, we gotta get it on you!
dan friesen
Or even more to the point, you put them in a cage and then you sneak in.
A doll of a child.
It will think it's real.
jordan holmes
It's an experiment.
This is our new entertainment.
We've got TV shows.
This is all set up.
dan friesen
I don't think this is accurate.
But yeah, cool.
So Elon Musk tweeted something that's similar in theme to some of the ideas that Alex is apparently putting into Reset Wars.
It's a mind meld, baby.
jordan holmes
Ugh.
alex jones
That's the information we lay out in Reset Wars.
And that's the information that spontaneously now Elon Musk is talking about just days before we release it.
The exact same information that's in our film shot months ago that's in this six-hour class is what Musk is now talking about because that's the chain reaction of consciousness.
It happens over and over again throughout history.
Radio was invented by three people on two different continents in the same week.
And it's the same thing with so many other things.
dan friesen
It's fun to say that three people invented radio on different continents in the same week, but that's not true.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Because Alex isn't being specific, I'm honestly not even sure who the third person he's claiming invented radio is, but the common argument comes down to Tesla and Marconi as being the two people most appropriate to say are the inventors of radio, which is to say that wireless communication.
Each of them has a pretty good claim to the title.
Tesla was the first to demonstrate wireless radio in 1893, but then three years later, Marconi got the first patent for wireless telegraphy.
Though Tesla got to the actual radio thing first, Marconi would be the first person to send a signal across the Atlantic, The correct answer in this debate is the inventor of radio is Marconi.
And we know that from one very important piece of information.
unidentified
I can't believe you did this to me.
You are a vengeful man.
You are a vengeful man.
dan friesen
That's right.
Marconi plays the mamba.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Listen to the radio.
Don't you remember?
jordan holmes
If Jefferson Starship says it, you know it's true.
dan friesen
That was just Starship at that point.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
jordan holmes
I apologize.
dan friesen
Both Tesla and Marconi were not just coming up with shit out of nowhere, though.
There were luminaries like James Clerk Maxwell, who formulated equations about how electricity and magnetism would work in fields back in 1865.
And in 1886, Heinrich Rudolph Hertz made proof of concept that electric currents could, quote, be projected in the form of This is kind of putting it mildly.
Quote, in October 1866, Loomis used two kites between 14 and 18 miles apart, a vertical antenna, a high-frequency detector, and a spark gap transmitter to conduct his experiment that is credited by the Library of Congress as the first known instance of wireless aerial communication.
The transmitter and detector work together to successfully cause one kite to move the other, speaking to one another through radio waves.
jordan holmes
That's fun.
dan friesen
That's nuts.
jordan holmes
That's for a dude in the middle of the Civil War.
Not bad.
dan friesen
Not bad.
jordan holmes
Not bad, buddy.
dan friesen
It wouldn't be until 1915 that any speech would be able to be transmitted across the country from New York to San Francisco, and the concept of radio for entertainment purposes wouldn't come along for quite a while after this.
Anyway, the point is that Alex probably saw the idea that radio was invented by three people on continents in the same week.
He probably saw it in a meme and just decided it was true.
It's ultimately meaningless as a claim, though, since the development of what we know as radio is an extensive process that covered the better part of a hundred years to come from its conception, formulation, and then implementation.
Although now that I've thought about it, just saying that three people magically came up with it in the same week seems more fun.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And probably more profitable.
jordan holmes
I mean, one of the most destructive points of view of history in all time is that great man theory of history.
Like...
Not even just the inventors or anything like that, or the scientists or mathematicians before them.
Thousands of people, thousands upon thousands of people doing research all the time in communication with each other.
dan friesen
And sometimes not.
jordan holmes
And sometimes not.
Build the basis for these, what are called inventions, you know?
It's not like, oh, it was there to be discovered.
It's that there were...
Thousands of people working on it.
dan friesen
Yeah, there's also a lot of things that are very fascinating in terms of simultaneous innovations and simultaneous breakthroughs that happen.
And sometimes it's pretty hard to explain why those things, like, explain how it's possible that these things were, people came to the same conclusions.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
unidentified
Calculus.
dan friesen
But then sometimes there are things where it's like, well, this innovation was based on a breakthrough that happened.
Previously, these people are both working off the same...
jordan holmes
They're competing against each other as well.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
That happened all the time.
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
That obviously doesn't explain everything, but it does explain some things.
jordan holmes
Yes.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So here is the end of this video.
Supposed to be a promo that had to do with Joe Rogan and didn't really have that much to do with Joe.
jordan holmes
Oh boy.
dan friesen
I don't know why this was titled How Joe Rogan's Awakening Affects the Great Reset, except for Alex wanted Joe Rogan to be in the title.
jordan holmes
If you put Joe Rogan in the title and people search Joe Rogan, maybe this will pop up.
dan friesen
Right.
It seemed like a crass marketing scheme.
jordan holmes
Super crass.
alex jones
So don't let them crush your will.
Don't let them destroy.
Your destiny.
Realize you have innate free will and you can overpower all the propaganda, all the brainwashing, all the garbage.
But if you're not conscious of it and don't use your free will to choose freedom and to choose to be alive and to choose to be eternally like a child, seeing the world with new eyes every moment, then instead you'll be slaves of very, very evil people that have turned their back on God and justice and freedom and who've destroyed their futures and who want to take us with them.
We're launching humanity's counter-strike of love and justice and expansion of consciousness at ResetWars.com.
Join me there.
dan friesen
Boo.
Although, I like that he was really dangerously close to saying choose life.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And then he would have given me a chance to play some Wham!
That's kind of how bored I was getting with these promos by that point that throw some starship in there.
jordan holmes
If we built this city shows up, it's not because you were interested in the material.
dan friesen
No, it's because I was knee-deep in the hoopla!
So, these promos sucked.
And I did not feel like I had a better sense of what any of this was.
It was just...
Especially if you're somebody like myself who's gone through a lot of self-help.
Not gone through a lot of self-help stuff, but seen a lot of these blogs and these message boards where people are trying to push this nonsense.
And new agey stuff.
I'm pretty well versed in a lot of this.
This just sounds like any kind of...
Vague platitudes being used to try and sell something.
jordan holmes
Yep, yep.
dan friesen
But on Sunday, December 12th, Alex announced that at midnight he would be releasing the biggest, the most important piece of work, Reset Wars.
And I didn't know if I should take this seriously because he's done this in the past and it has not come out.
jordan holmes
Naturally.
dan friesen
But at midnight...
Exactly.
At midnight.
unidentified
Ooh!
dan friesen
Reset Wars changed from being a fill in your email and you'll get an announcement to being a new page.
At the top of it, there was a video.
That was Alex sitting at a desk.
Seven minute long video.
We're not going to listen to any of it because it's just meaningless.
It's just...
It's him reading a script, too.
jordan holmes
Oh, no!
dan friesen
In the way that these promos are very clearly, like, he's going from point A to point B. Yeah.
Not saying anything, but he's at least, like, this is off the cuff.
This was him reading.
It's a disastrous, horrible video.
And a lot of the script that he's reading is actually covered in the text on the page.
It's way too long.
It's poorly formatted.
And it's presented as a letter from the desk of Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Good God.
A letter.
dan friesen
Yeah.
It starts, my dear fellow patriots.
jordan holmes
Oh, fuck me.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Jesus Christ.
dan friesen
There's a number of things that jumped out to me.
And one of the first things is that there's no way Alex wrote this.
It's so out of his voice.
It has no...
Word choice similarities that Alex uses.
It's outrageous.
So halfway down the page, the beginning of it, pretty boring.
It's pretty standard, just kind of like what we heard in the Reset Wars Part 1 episode, just kind of like, ah, globalists bad.
They have secrets.
But then halfway down the page, business starts to pick up.
There's a section with a big, bold headline, quote, they want to install viruses into you and keep you from realizing your power.
And here we get back to this idea of the blank slate.
So here's that section.
Quote, it's true, dot, dot, dot, by using social conditioning, they install viruses of negative emotions, self-sabotaging behaviors, self-loathing, depression, anxiety, and many more.
When we're first born, our minds are completely blank slates.
It's why you see so many babies with thousand-yard stares.
They're taking in all...
jordan holmes
I'm sorry, I haven't seen a lot of babies staring into the middle distance on a bus while it's raining outside, wondering where their relationship went wrong.
dan friesen
You should hang out with more babies.
jordan holmes
Sorry.
dan friesen
Back to the text.
jordan holmes
Sorry, sorry.
dan friesen
They're taking in all the data from the world around them and trying to process it.
These viruses start getting planted when we're young through movies, television, music, and especially nowadays, social media.
You know all those babies on social media.
jordan holmes
Every time they said play Mozart for your baby in the womb, what they weren't telling you is that it's installing viruses inside your baby's head that are making them stare into the middle distance.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
Everybody...
Who knows this?
dan friesen
Yeah, and I accidentally, for my baby, I accidentally played Tupac's Hit Em Up.
jordan holmes
Oh, oh, you're fucked.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So, like, quote, they want to program people with the belief that they're not enough and they're flawed, worthless creatures.
There's a lot to unpack there.
First, babies are not blank slates, as we've discussed.
And in many cases, mental illness has a genetic basis.
The idea that this is being presented is stupid, and the main effect that it can have is to further stigmatize mental illness and dissuade people from seeking help.
And like I said earlier, I find that to be repulsive.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I'm not bipolar type 1 because I just can't think my way better.
dan friesen
No, I think it's because you're on social media as a baby.
jordan holmes
Oh, that could have been it.
Yeah, I was an early adopter of Friendster.
dan friesen
So this second point I have is like, I think this is really important.
I was noticing it also as I was getting to this point.
The text is written and formatted intentionally to be subconsciously persuasive.
There are paragraph breaks after every sentence.
jordan holmes
Oh, God.
dan friesen
Pretty much.
Almost every sentence.
Every sentence is a short, digestible tidbit, and almost all of the sentences trail off with ellipses.
Ending sentences and ellipses is a subtle marketing trick that elicits a couple different responses from readers.
The first is that it gives the impression that a thought has more to come, which inherently builds tension in the reader's mind.
This has the effect of making the reader less likely to get bored and stop reading, because the ellipses tricks them into thinking that something big is coming.
The second effect ellipses have in writing is that they indicate incomplete thoughts which allow the reader to mentally engage with the text and fill in the blank with something which creates a subconscious connection with the reader and what's being read.
This is something that can be artfully done in ad copy, but the way that it's being overused in this text is almost embarrassing.
It denotes an awareness of this technique in persuasive writing, but almost no awareness of how to use it appropriately.
Like, if you use it in every sentence, the formatting looks like shit, and it becomes obvious that you're trying to pull a fast one.
Obviously, I'm not saying this is like brainwashing shit, it's just tacky persuasive writing tricks that's being embarrassingly overused in the text, but the intent is super clear.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you can either be using manipulative techniques or you can be writing like a first grader.
They can seem similar, but they are very different, in fact.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
And I would be suspicious that it maybe is writing like a first grader if it weren't for all of the other manipulative tricks that are used.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
Another section a little bit later uses this headline.
Quote, My goal in writing you this letter is not to convince you this is happening.
From the text.
Quote, if I wanted to do that, I could write you a letter the length of a book filled with proof.
If you don't believe it already, even though these elites have failed to keep their wicked plans for the third dimensional control, a secret, dot, dot, dot, I wouldn't read a word further of this letter.
This letter is intended for the person who already knows this to be true.
That's you, isn't it?
unidentified
Wow.
dan friesen
You understand what's happening.
jordan holmes
Self-selecting.
dan friesen
Yeah.
You understand what's happening right now, and you know why this letter is so important, right?
This is just elementary level persuasive bullshit.
This is exploiting three very basic tricks.
The first is fake personalization.
This is imagined to be Alex writing you this letter, which is just nonsense, if only because there's zero chance Alex wrote this.
This is Jake Doocy writing as Alex.
I have almost no doubt of that.
The second trick is that it's creating the impression that by not putting this letter down, you've somehow proven that you're one of the elect.
You understand the reality that others are too dumb or stubborn to accept, and the proof of that is the fact that you don't need this letter to...
This is a really common manipulative marketing tool, and it works pretty well because it essentially flatters the reader, but the only thing the reader can do to merit that flattery is not walk away from the sale.
That's a trap.
jordan holmes
Well, yeah, you gotta not walk away from the sale.
dan friesen
The third trick is the use of questions that you know the reader is primed to answer affirmatively.
Like, it's a really basic sales trick to get the person that you're trying to sell something to to agree with you about something.
To answer in the affirmative is to create a connection.
jordan holmes
Yeah, get them saying yes early.
dan friesen
And another thing that's important to understand is that this isn't just a sales technique.
It's usually a closing technique.
You usually want to create that saying yes as a way of getting someone to say yes to the sale.
jordan holmes
I spent 10 years in sales and I was told by a lot of very shady sales.
dan friesen
But you also shouldn't be asking these questions unless you know the answer is yes.
And when it's like, you know that this is important because you're great, right?
That's such a desperate way.
jordan holmes
You know that you're a super smart person, right?
You're the smartest person I've ever met.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And if you pay close attention to how this shit is written, like this copy, a large portion of it is just...
Like used car salesman closing techniques.
So a little bit later, we get another manipulative sales tactic.
Quote, I'm giving you the globalists' entire playbook so you can protect yourself from their attack on your freedom, your mind, your soul, dot, dot, dot.
We're calling it Reset Wars.
I'm risking my life and my own freedom to share with you the elite secrets of how reality...
Actually works!
So you can use it to your benefit.
Dot dot dot.
I'm going to reveal what they're trying to hide so you can see their mind games from a thousand miles away.
Dot dot dot.
And you're going to discover exactly how to fight back against the New World Order so you never end up a slave to their evil power.
Dot dot dot.
Reset Wars is the most detailed explanation of what's currently going on in the world.
Dot dot dot.
I can't tell you exactly how deep this goes in this public website because they're already trying to throw me in prison.
unidentified
Get the fuck out of here!
Get out of here!
dan friesen
That's so good.
jordan holmes
You motherfucker!
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
If I read all the way down to that, I would throw shit at the wall.
dan friesen
Exactly.
So now here you have the false impression that the salesperson is risking something by trying to sell this to you.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
Like, if my boss finds out I'm giving you this good a deal, I'm going to get fired.
jordan holmes
Oh, no, no, no.
dan friesen
I'm going to get fired.
jordan holmes
Honestly, this is too much even for me.
But listen, I know it's important to you.
dan friesen
Right.
And I'm just such a good person.
jordan holmes
I'm such a good person.
I am willing to take this even a step further.
And I will throw in two bath mats.
dan friesen
It's just that exact same thing, but it's being amplified to life or death stakes for Alex or whoever's writing this pretending to be Alex.
And here you see the promise of this dangerous secret information that can't be revealed on a public website.
For some reason, because the writer of this is being threatened with prison, that doesn't make any sense.
This is kind of a classic chestnut, though, creating this super inflated impression of what's inside the magic box.
It's too dangerous to even open in public.
jordan holmes
So rude.
dan friesen
Also, I would assume that it makes more sense to release that on a public website if there's a risk of being arrested.
It seems like, go ahead.
jordan holmes
No, no, no.
Keep it secretive.
Otherwise, they'll know that you need to be arrested for something.
dan friesen
Look, don't snitch.
I can't tell you any of this stuff.
jordan holmes
I can't tell you anything now.
dan friesen
Fuck that.
All this letter, all the manipulative techniques that are way too liberally employed, they're meant to lead you up to the actual cell.
Quote, we've put together a special offer for anyone reading this letter.
The material inside Reset Wars is going to be retailing at $297.
Get the fuck out!
Or more!
jordan holmes
Get the fuck out!
unidentified
Or more!
dan friesen
In the near future.
However.
However.
jordan holmes
Oh, for me?
dan friesen
We're having a pre-launch member special at 25% off for a limited time, dot, dot, dot, taking the price down to just $222.
jordan holmes
I can't say no to $222.
dan friesen
That's so pathetically transparent, and it goes even further.
Quote, listen, it's as simple as signing up.
Listen.
unidentified
Listen.
jordan holmes
How many times are we going to have to start a sentence with listen without immediately recognizing that listen only as in parentheses asshole after it?
dan friesen
Listen.
jordan holmes
Listen, asshole!
dan friesen
It's as simple as signing up and you'll get access to the material right away.
Here's why you need to take action right now, dot dot dot.
Currently, there's an active subpoena out for me.
They're trying to take me to court so they can completely shut down Infowars along with all my products, dot dot dot, and possibly even send me to prison.
They've already shut me down on all social media platforms...
I'm even getting death threats every single day from anonymous numbers...
They're doing everything in their power to stop me from exposing these evil powers to the world.
I truly have no idea what's gonna happen, or if they're gonna succeed in shutting me down.
And if they do end up getting rid of me...
You won't be able to get access to the truth.
You won't be able to share this truth with the people you care about.
You won't know how to fight back.
This is why it's so important that you act now before it's too late.
jordan holmes
Oh my god.
dan friesen
This is such amazingly abusive as a thing to do to your audience.
jordan holmes
I have not heard that many ellipses since some fucking asshole taught me Emily Dickinson for years.
dan friesen
You know, the places that I've seen that many ellipses are when you're reading text fragments.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
From recovered sources, like the Dead Sea Scrolls or something.
jordan holmes
We couldn't translate this part.
dan friesen
That piece of the paper is missing.
jordan holmes
If the ellipses were stand-ins for a series of swear words, I would be like, oh, I kind of get it.
dan friesen
None of the sentiments that are being expressed here are real.
This is all just more sales tricks, primarily creating the impression that people have to act now or they'll never be able to get the thing that you're selling.
This creates the artificial sense of immediacy where you have to act now, and it helps override people's rational thought processes.
But imagine for a second that any of this was actually what Alex's position is.
Think about what a horrible piece of shit and a traitor to his audience he would be.
He has this six-hour course that he's created that's the way to defeat the globalists, the enemies that he's been convincing his audience they're in a death battle with for over 20 years.
Many of these people have probably sacrificed quite a bit to follow Alex, whether it's the respect of their peers or money that they spent on keeping him on air so the fight could continue and Alex could keep documenting it for them.
jordan holmes
Goddamn custody has been lost over Alex Jones.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And here is this sales pitch for the course.
And if you believe this shit, without the course, you won't.
You, quote, won't know how to fight back.
You, quote, won't be able to access the truth.
It's not an overstatement to say that this is critically important stuff for you to have if you want to save yourself, if you want to save your loved ones and the rest of the world.
You could even argue that the key to defeating the globalists is actually this information getting out to as many people as possible.
So instead of providing this information, Alex withholds it and demands over $200 to give you access to this information, without which you're helpless to fight back against the devil.
Even in a best-case scenario where Alex actually believes all the complete bullshit that's being said on this webpage, He's a monster, essentially demanding his audience pay him a ransom in order to be able to bestow life-saving information from him.
Thankfully, I'm certain that Alex doesn't believe any of this shit, and it's just a cash grab, so honestly, it's just the standard Infowars model of fucking with the audience and then monetizing it.
It's awful.
jordan holmes
That is so...
Fucking brutal.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
The idea of...
Oh, man.
Imagine...
Imagine if somebody had followed this show for 20 years and we were finally like, okay, we're ready to get rid of conservative evil forever.
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
But...
jordan holmes
It's behind a paywall!
dan friesen
Look, I've been studying at this for 20-something years.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I've figured out exactly how to get rid of grifting.
I've figured out the right-wing scam, and I know the exact solution.
And if you aren't aware of this and you don't understand this, you're dead.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Basically.
jordan holmes
You should already know it, honestly.
dan friesen
Yeah, and look, there's a short period of time where you're going to be able to get this thing that I've created because, look, the right-wing grifters are going to take me down.
Man.
jordan holmes
25% off, baby.
25% off.
dan friesen
I need quite a bit of money from you in order to get this.
jordan holmes
I mean, you know, to a certain...
And to a certain point of view, though, if you're a group of people who believe that your safety in life is dependent upon spending $1,000 on an automatic weapon...
It seems like it makes sense to think that you should pay Alex $222 for the secrets to fight the globalists.
dan friesen
No, it doesn't.
jordan holmes
Of course it doesn't!
dan friesen
No, because buying a gun is buying a thing.
Yeah.
That's a tool or whatever.
jordan holmes
Well, this is a tool.
dan friesen
No, it's not.
It's a letter.
It's information.
And look, I don't know if Alex is aware of this, but if this information is good and it actually is transformative in people's lives, they'll pay him way more than $200.
If he gives it for free.
jordan holmes
Oh, totally.
dan friesen
The amount of money he would get from people just wanting to support him for being that generous and that caring would be a flood compared to whatever he's going to be getting from these $200.
Like this desperate cash grab.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's really sad.
jordan holmes
If you put out something worth something for free, people will want to pay what it's worth.
dan friesen
And more.
That's what I think a lot of people's experience has been, and I think the way that Alex is structuring this, it's very obvious that he has no faith in the thing that he's doing, and he's just banking on people not getting mad.
jordan holmes
I mean, yeah, it's the fucking Ted Anderson gold sales model of, like, as long as I get you to buy the first thing, you're obviously not coming back.
So I just need you to buy one thing, and then...
dan friesen
What other thing is there going to be?
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
Is there going to be another round of courses from Reset Wars?
jordan holmes
Totally.
dan friesen
So, like, he offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Which is great.
jordan holmes
If you haven't defeated the globalists in 30 days.
dan friesen
Right.
I think that that 30-day money-back guarantee, great.
It's the least you could do, I suppose.
But I also think that there's pretty good reason to believe that most people won't take advantage of that, because...
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I think a lot of people will be primed to blame themselves if they don't get the magical transformation that Alex is selling them.
They'll be like, ah, I just didn't meditate hard enough or whatever.
I didn't visualize hard enough.
You see that a lot in comment sections of people like Ducey who do this Law of Attraction stuff.
It's like, well, I haven't made the money yet, but I'm going to keep on trying.
I'm doing something wrong.
I need some advice on how to do this right.
And then 30 days are going to be up.
jordan holmes
And they're already in this place of, like, you know, if I admit I was conned on Reset Wars, how was I not conned on InfoWars?
unidentified
Uh-huh.
jordan holmes
How can you be so fucked over with this bullshit that you spent $250 on?
dan friesen
There is some sunk cost.
jordan holmes
You know?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
So either you say, well, I got conned and he's been lying my entire fucking life.
dan friesen
It would be a little threatening to think if you're in for this.
jordan holmes
Right?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
That'd fuck you up.
dan friesen
Uh-oh.
Maybe 9-11.
jordan holmes
Maybe it really happened.
Oh, no.
dan friesen
So another thing that I find really fascinating is the disclaimer they needed to put at the bottom of the page.
It reads, quote, the contents of this program entitled Reset Wars is designed for instructional and educational purposes only.
It expresses the views, opinions, and analysis of Alex Jones and Alex Jones exclusively.
As such, the content is not intended to represent or warrant the accuracy or truthfulness of any particular statement or any information disseminated herein, and accordingly, Alex Jones, as well as any and all individuals or entities participating in the production and distribution of Reset Wars, disclaim any and all warranties or representations of any nature whatsoever.
jordan holmes
Frankly, we don't even want to put our fucking names on this shit.
It's all Alex, because fuck it.
He's getting all his money taken anyway.
dan friesen
Well, but it's all Alex, and Alex also disclaims that, hey, look, I don't even...
unidentified
I've got nothing to do with this.
dan friesen
I'm not going to stand behind the truth of any of this.
jordan holmes
Hell no!
What, do you think this has been evaluated by the FDA?
Fuck off.
dan friesen
Well, but even beyond that, like just even the ideas that he's saying or like the pieces of evidence he has for things, like if you were a consumer and you're like, hey, this is a lie.
Alex would be like, I'd like to point you to the disclaimer.
Disclaimer.
unidentified
I never claimed any of this.
jordan holmes
this was real.
I don't care.
dan friesen
You should know when you bought this that I had a boilerplate thing here that said, yeah, no shit, it's not real.
jordan holmes
Read the fine print where it says, come at me and I will say, Don't care!
It wasn't true in the first place!
Of course it wasn't true!
Why else would- I put this fucking disclaimer down there!
dan friesen
Yeah.
It's a little sad.
jordan holmes
Jesus.
dan friesen
It's a little sad.
So now here's where we get to the dilemma that I'm in.
jordan holmes
It's like a CEO doing a commercial for fucking PetSmart or something and being like, honestly, I don't think this is a very good program at all.
I don't think you should do this.
dan friesen
So the dilemma, Jordan, is this.
I want to still know what the actual course is.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
Obviously.
jordan holmes
But...
dan friesen
I'm not paying.
200-something dollars for it.
And I don't want anybody who's listening to buy it and then give it to me or anything.
unidentified
Fuck no.
dan friesen
I don't want this money to go to him.
jordan holmes
Do not give him money.
dan friesen
But I still want to...
I don't have any idea what point he's even trying to make with these promos.
Reading over the copy, it's just...
I listened to that interview with Jake Doocy when he was on Alex's show, and there's all this nonsense about MKUltra that they took from Wikipedia, and I don't know what it is.
I'm curious.
It's Alex's most important work ever.
I don't know what to do.
jordan holmes
Maybe some archive-obsessed InfoWarrior will put it out on BitTorrent.
Maybe we'll be able to get it from fucking the Pirate Bay or something.
You know?
Who knows?
dan friesen
I mean, Alex, I don't know.
Certainly some contradictory ideas about intellectual property.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's definitely true.
dan friesen
Yeah, I think that, you know, typically I've had a rule against covering things that are behind a paywall.
I'll make an exception in this case.
But I still...
I'm struggling with this, but I also really want to make clear that I'm not struggling in any performative way to try and get an audience listener to send it to me.
jordan holmes
The official position of Knowledge Fight.
dan friesen
But I don't know what to do.
I think you're right.
I think eventually it's going to be posted somewhere.
jordan holmes
It's going to be somewhere.
It's going to be reposted somewhere.
dan friesen
We just might have to wait a while.
It might be a situation where we have a little bit of a delay before Part 3, Attack of the Clones.
jordan holmes
We'll get there.
We'll get there.
Somebody's going to put it out.
And frankly, there's no way that it's really that sustainable for them to not eventually be like, okay, well, the game is up.
We might as well just have it out there.
dan friesen
Yeah, it may be a situation where you just want to hit people for whatever it's worth.
jordan holmes
Yeah, up front.
dan friesen
And then eventually, once their warranty period is over, release it for free.
jordan holmes
And see if you can't get any advertising out of it.
Get them coming and going.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, absolutely.
dan friesen
So, you know, I think that this is a little bit disappointing.
I certainly was very disappointed by this entire path.
I wanted to know more about what Reset Wars was.
I don't feel like I do know that.
I think I know exactly what I knew before, which is this is a fucking scam.
jordan holmes
I think it's Alex handing you a flower.
I think that's what Reset Wars is.
dan friesen
Yeah, and the flower is a metaphor for a scam.
jordan holmes
Yes, it's a big scam.
dan friesen
I don't feel like this exploration has gotten us any closer to truth.
But hey, we'll be back for another Reset Wars thing once we know a little bit more.
The most important work Alex has done in his career.
jordan holmes
Oh man, put it behind a paywall.
As the tip of the spear.
You dick.
Fighting on your behalf to defeat the oncoming murder of the globalists.
dan friesen
It's just unacceptable if you believe any of the premises.
jordan holmes
Unreal.
dan friesen
If you believe that you're fighting against the literal devil and somehow...
The waking up of the population has a bearing on whether or not you'll defeat the devil.
The idea that you would put it behind a paywall is...
jordan holmes
Absurd.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Absurd and...
dan friesen
Unacceptable.
jordan holmes
Evil.
Like, if true.
dan friesen
If true.
jordan holmes
Prohibitively evil.
Yes.
Beyond evil.
Like, that's carpetbagging to a new level.
dan friesen
I'm fascinated by it.
Like, how you could defend that.
I don't think you could.
jordan holmes
No, absolutely not.
dan friesen
Like, I understand Alex would be like, well, we have expenses and, you know, we put a lot of money into it.
No, you didn't.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
From what I understand, the course is just him sitting at the desk.
Like, it's just...
jordan holmes
It's the show.
It's the same show.
dan friesen
It's not like he flew across the world to record himself.
No.
jordan holmes
It's the same show with a different script.
Yes.
dan friesen
Basically, it's the show with a script that was written by a hypnotist.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah, brutal.
dan friesen
I would assume.
Anyway, we'll check back in, but there are some big updates, and I'm primarily interested in this because this show, as it is, is mostly just these dumb vaccine conspiracies, and then apparently he said that weather weapons were involved with the tornadoes.
jordan holmes
Oh, that sounds fine.
dan friesen
I mean, what are you going to do?
We already talked about his dumb belief in weather weapons.
It's just going to be that again.
jordan holmes
And in this situation, come on, that's crass bullshit.
dan friesen
He's trolling.
jordan holmes
He's trolling.
He's trying to say weather weapons so people will talk about him saying weather weapons.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
That one's bullshit.
I don't like it.
dan friesen
Anyway, we'll be back with another episode on Friday, but until then, Jordan, we have a website.
jordan holmes
We do.
It's knowledgefight.com.
dan friesen
And resetwars.net.
Damn it, we should have got that.
jordan holmes
We should have fucking had it.
God damn it.
Put our own letter up.
unidentified
Oh well.
dan friesen
We're also on Twitter.
jordan holmes
We are on Twitter.
It's at knowledge underscore fight and I go to bed Jordan.
dan friesen
Yep, we'll be back.
But until then, I'm Neo, I'm Leo, I'm DZX Clark, I'm Daryl Rundis.
steve quayle
And now here comes the sex robots.
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
unidentified

jordan holmes
I'm a first time caller.
unidentified
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
