Time Text
He today that sheds his blood.
Shall be my brother.
Be he ne'er so vile.
Got that queer talking out.
Is this a dagger which I see it shut up?
A handle toward my hand.
A man can die but once!
But first empty your wallet!
Hey!
Oh!
Get out of here, man!
Oh, boy, don't go!
Now it's empty and all the devils are here!
That's also kind of cool last week.
Sounds so Muppet like.
It's also super like if you read Marx and you look at Stalin and you look at Mao.
Like the first people or Pol Pot, the first people they kill are the poets and the creative artists.
Like, you don't serve any purpose in an actual communist society.
It's not drum circles.
Let's get in the factory, dummy.
Yes, exactly.
Or go work in the fields.
By the way, who does Mamdanny think the grocery stores that are now funded by the government that don't have to operate on a profit motive are going to put out of business?
The mom and pop shops all around.
Also, he said it's uh, you know, it's like a public option for produce.
Okay, we have a public option called Snap, where it's free, and they don't buy produce.
Right.
They buy soda with it.
We also have dirt.
Yeah.
Well what?
You could put seeds in dirt and then up will sprout vegetables and food.
Oh.
I think you need a sip of water or something.
I've got uh right?
No, is that am I crazy?
No, no, no.
Oh, oh, they could garden.
I thought you were saying the stores were so dirty that you could like urban farm in the groceries.
Oh no, that's I mean, maybe that's true too.
But yeah, I mean.
Well, here's the thing.
That's a perfect example.
It's not about helping poor people.
First off, if you believed it was about helping poor people, you know, stop, stop, stop.
Well, you're gonna admonish just had a stroke on air.
I know a stroke, I said they could have.
No, I don't know.
It made no sense.
Uh well.
But like, I understand now.
You know, in my head, I thought, man, this is a they're gonna get it.
Uh like a walking mad comic.
I mean, no, he doesn't get admonished for that.
It's a medical condition.
I have to make a light.
I had a stroke.
Yeah.
So fast.
Josh, don't let him talk to you.
Like that, you should stand up for yourself.
I smell toast.
Anybody else taste pennies?
I always smell toast.
Well, I put pennies in his drink.
So it's not about helping poor people.
Even if you believe that Snap would help poor.
Let's assume they believe it because they're idiots.
Okay.
You already have it, right?
But Snap has to be used where there still is some semblance of profit that goes to a grocery store where you can take that to any store or most stores that you want.
It's not enough.
It's about driving private grocery stores out of business.
That's what the public option.
That's why it's such an apt comparison.
There already exists Snap.
We already have EBT.
No, no, no.
Let's create a government grocery store that we can guarantee will undercrut uh undercut mom and pop grocery stores on prices.
Yeah.
Because we can afford it, right?
There is no profit motive.
And then once they go under, oh, that's the only option you're left with, and turns out it sucks.
Turns out it may look a whole lot like Cuba.
Jeez.
Those are some pairs, but they are rotten.
I imagine they don't sell it because it's rotten.
Basic staples like bread are becoming harder to find.
And then they are available.
They leave a lot to be desired.
Some goatsubat without eating anything.
Just water with sugar.
If they have it.
Todas las noches, pero los borro.
Pa'quedar invisto, ese mal rato, mejor me lo ahorro.
Every morning.
For walk, for mom.
My man is soli.
Solid for a food.
The mini don't wear it.
It's Cuban Patrick Stewart.
See?
So and here's the thing.
I'm going to use Cuba as an example right now because it's one that a lot of people have forgotten.
You all know it's a failure now.
But these same people who are proposing these policies now.
They all told you that Cuba was paradise.
By the way, even after it was communist.
Just so you know, Rage Against the Machine, printed out, Che Guevara, right?
Our socialism is for fake shirts.
That's why you can get it on Crowder Shop.
I designed it when I was 14.
Because I was surrounded by dumb Tomarello fans.
Where they didn't realize they were supporting a genocidal manic.
The left supported Cuba after it was communist and after political dissidents were jailed.
And I'm going to drive that point home because that is the reason that Cuban Americans are the most consistently conservative voting bloc, and in response to communist Mamdani's mayoral uh mayoral run right now, which seems to be going very well.
There's a Cuban-born businessman, his name is Joseph Hernandez, who's decided to run.
Hey, it makes sense as to why.
I came from socialism.
I came from communist Cuba.
I know I know what this thing looks like and I know what it feels like.
I came here at the age of seven.
Uh we were uh I was living there for the first seven years of my life.
My uh my father became a political prisoner.
He um wasn't a fan of communism, and of course that doesn't work very well when you oppose the government.
So he was thrown in prison, uh, given a seven-year sentence after like a two-minute trial.
He developed encephalitis in prison, and after a nine-month coma, the the communists thought it was a good idea to just get rid of him.
So we ended up here in America.
My dad, a disabled guy, washing dishes, and my mom cleaning homes, uh, and four kids.
And you know, my parents taught us a very good lesson.
They said, Look, you've now been adopted by this amazing country.
You have a responsibility to work hard to get educated, uh, to change the world, and then at some point in your life, you're gonna be asked to stand up for this country and do something wonderful, something meaningful to repay back to this society that gave us so much.
And this is my time to set up, and that's what I'm doing.
Now I'm gonna tell you something.
Uh we have no idea how this goes.
I I I pray that this guy does pretty well, Mr. Hernandez, Godspeed.
It's unlikely in New York.
But I bet you, if this came down to a head-to-head between Mamdani or Cuomo and Hernandez, you would see an overwhelming amount of support come from the boroughs like Queens, areas of Brooklyn, Long Island, and the wealthy elite in Manhattan vote for the communists.
That's what you would see.
And they're voting that way, these wealthy elites in their penthouses, on behalf of the people who they revile.
And let me give you some examples here with Cuba, because these same celebrities that I'm about to go through, and politicians who praise Cuba, by the way, that same health care that he was just discussing there that his father went through, Michael Moore referred to as better than American health care.
Even if you're a supporter of Castro, which is uh the only kind of Cuban citizen who gets any type of health care, by the way.
I don't know if you know that.
They once they control all facets of your life, they can control who has access to what.
These people here in the United States who say, no, no, no, not that kind of communist.
No one said you're oh, you're trying to create a boogeyman like Cuba or like USSR or like China.
These are all examples that the left, even today's left, pointed to as success stories.
And they just hope you don't remember.
Let me go through Cuba, by the way, because it's not just an idea.
These are people who are willing to risk life and limb to get away from a communist fascist regime that has killed many of them and jailed even more, and they have had to watch American privileged celebrities and politicians go over and praise the man who violates their basic fundamental rights.
That's why they vote for the person who wants to give them a little more freedom.
Let's go to a few.
Susan Rotolo, she was the broad who was uh Bob Dylan's first girlfriend.
She was a mainstay in the hippie era, in the flower power era.
In 1964, she went to Cuba defying a U.S. travel ban, right?
An act of defiance in the name of freedom with four other students.
And she said this about Cuban workers who criticize Castro, by the way, many of whom are being jailed.
This is the flower power, right?
Back then we were real men, we were f we were pro-freedom.
Okay, here's what Susan Rotolo said.
She said, These gusanos, which translates to worms, protesters, workers who oppose the communist government, these gusanos, worms, are not suppressed.
There can be open criticism of the regime as long as they keep it to talk, they are tolerated, as long as there is no sabotage.
She left the United States, violating a travel ban, which by the way was instated in principle, because of people having their rights violated, having no freedom.
She went there to condemn the people who were protesting for freedom.
And still was allowed to be a main state.
Steven Spielberg in 2002.
He went to a government uh uh film festival in Cuba that featured his movies.
So he was nice to me.
And he described Castro.
He had dinner with him.
He said, the eight most important hours of my life.
Ted Turner, you know Ted Turner, the guy who founded CNN, 1980.
Uh by the way, Castro uh loved CNN and he stole that signal from Florida, but uh he actually he wouldn't allow it for his citizens just for him.
So in 1982, Ted Turner visited Castro in Cuba.
He said, I expected Castro to be a horrible person, but he was a great guy, and he called Cuba a very progressive country.
Then in 97 he went back with his wife, Jane Fonda.
No, she wasn't just the one who effectively was uh humanizing and supporting communists in Vietnam.
She also went to Cuba, where there were other she sought out communists to support.
And I want you to keep in mind when you're supporting a communist regime, you are supporting the mass murder and the oppression of those who oppose the regime.
97, Ted Turner went back with Jane Fonda.
And uh they uh they said this.
They said if Fidel Castro can't live without it about CNN, we ought to be able to sell CNN all over the world again.
Castro outlawed it for Cuban citizens.
Francis Ford Coppola.
Uh Godfather, Godfather too, don't care.
He's a piece of shit.
1976.
He said this about Castro.
We both have beards, we both have power and want to use it for good purposes.
Oh, good purposes like silencing the Cusano, the worm, you know, those who want freedom to be able to, I don't know, play jazz?
Buy bread.
Oliver Stone in 2003, he made a Castro documentary.
And then he said about Castro.
He was a very selfless and moral man.
One of the world's wisest men.
Yes, I know what you're thinking.
He didn't say this about Fidel Castro.
He he did.
He must have said that about uh somebody running a successful country.
Right.
Yeah.
Somebody running a powerful country.
Or he must must have said it maybe about a revolutionary who was fighting Castro.
Maybe.
Or maybe he took a vow poverty.
Maybe that's what it is.
These same people they'll say, hey, hey, hey, no, no, we want to try socialism.
Not what you're afraid of.
I'm afraid that it's gonna be similar to Castro.
Didn't you praise Castro?
So if the world's wisest man, Oliver Stone, Castro, according to you, implemented socialism, well, wouldn't that be the best example we have?
I mean, he's the wisest.
How would your socialism differ?
It never does.
Peter Jennings, who you may think is my God, an actual journalist, on April 3rd, 1989, he said Castro has delivered the most to those who had the least.
And for much of the third world, Cuba is actually a model of development.
Wow.
Medical care was once for the privileged few.
Today it is available to every Cuban and it is free.
Some of Cuba's health care is world class.
Which which ones?
In heart disease, for example, in brain surgery, health and education are the revolution's greatest success stories.
And here's the thing.
All the while these people were saying it, there were people willing to die in record numbers just to touch American soil.
When they say actually Cuba is a it's a shining model of what we can do.
They're saying this while people are dying and starving and try and tell you to not fear socialism.
I'm fearing exactly what it is you're praising.
I'm not making it up.
I'm not I'm not just fabricating that you supported the USSR, Bernie.
I'm not just making up that you guys support.
If I were to say now, oh yeah, you mean social worked like a charm in Cuba, right?
What would liberals say?
What would progressives say that they would say, oh, come on, that's a straw man.
No one's saying for us to be like Cuba.
Well, you did for fucking decades.
For fucking decades.
And if the people dying to protest the government weren't enough for you to maybe clean up your act and think twice, what would change now?
Katie Couric, 92 said Castro traveled the country cultivating his image and his revolution delivered.
Campaigns stamped out illiteracy, and even today, Cuba has one of the lowest infant mortality rates in the world.
First off, that's a BS stat because they have different standards, and I don't know if you know those communist regimes tend to release faulty information.
But the revolution delivered.
Okay?
The revolution, but and I let's just go with the ends justify the means, the execution, mass executions, by the way, firing squad without trial that Che Govera bragged about to an international committee.
He said, Well, absolutely continue to do it.
Also really wanted to kill anyone who was black in Cuba because he wanted purebloh Spanish Europeans uh in Cuba exclusively.
So let's assume the ends justify the genocidal means.
What did it deliver?
They can read.
Yeah, except they can't.
Many of them can't.
What did they and if if they delivered, why don't Cubans believe that it delivered?
And then we can't really know because I don't know if you know this, I don't really have an accurate census.
It's really just an ex- It's really just a question, a series of questions to find out if they should jail you in Cuba, so people tend to answer I love viva la Cuba.
But when they come here, they vote overwhelmingly for the people, Katie Curk, Peter Jennings, Oliver Stone, Steven Spielberg, Jane Fonda, Ted Turner hate.
Matter of fact, you don't have a stronger, I don't know that you have a stronger voting pattern of liberals in San Francisco than Cuban Americans.
Shouldn't that tell you something?
Sean Penn also talked about his trips to Cuba.
Keep in mind, this is the guy who supported uh the Venezuelan dictatorship, uh, which we now are seeing works like a charm.
He said Cuba lives without raging lawlessness and with literacy, a country that exports more doctors worldwide than any other.
First off, that's wrong.
There's also uh there's also fraud taking place because Lula, for example, in Brazil, they're bringing in their importing Cuban doctors, and many of them aren't actually even certified.
They have no ability to practice medicine.
It's one big giant racket.
But again, if that's the case, all right.
Why do Cubans hate it?
Why are they leaving?
Best exporting more doctors?
Okay.
Cool.
Instead of getting to numbers that we can't verify because you're depending on the government.
Um, how about we do how much does the average Cuban make?
How much is a bar of soap cost?
Let's say a monthly salary, soap bar cost, same number.
Oh, must be nice, Sean Penn.
Harry Belafonte, who has just been praised and lauded as an activist, right?
He's more known for his activism than anything else that he did.
In 2003, he said, if you believe in freedom, if you believe in justice, if you believe in democracy, you have no choice but to support Castro.
Jeez.
By the way, uh it's it's hard when you sort of right, you juxtapose that with um Rotolo's comments earlier, where she said, these gusanos worms, the protesters, right, they're not suppressed.
There can be open criticism so long as they keep it to talk, they're tolerated.
Well, hold on a second.
If you support that doesn't sound like freedom to me.
It doesn't sound like freedom to me.
It sounds to me like your communists here stateside, the hippies, and they were communists back then.
McCarthy was right, and they're communists today.
Sounds to me like what you mean by freedom is communist rule.
Michael Moore, of course, in 2007, you guys know this.
He uh did the SICO documentary and talked about how great healthcare was in Cuba.
And Bernie Sanders, I know what you're thinking.
Of course, he praised communist China at one point.
Of course, he honeymooned in the USSR, but he didn't actually go so far as to specifically praise human rights violator in chief, Fidel Castro, did he?
Ah, here's a clip.
You may recall way back in what was it, 1961 they invaded Cuba.
And everybody was totally convinced that Castro was the worst guy in the world.
All the Cuban people were gonna rise up in rebellion against Fidel Cash.
They'd forgot that he educated the kids, gave them health care, totally transformed a society.
Yes, transformed it.
That's what they consider to be a good leader.
That's what they consider the government's duty is to educate your kids in their in their uh liking and to give you health care that they can administer and control.
Yeah.
That's it.
Yeah.
And then and then by the way, well, they so they're advocates, just to be clear, they're advocating for a Castro-like regime.
That's clearly what they're doing.
They've said it.
And then when we oppose that, they accuse us of fascism.
They want a Castro regime, the wisest of all men.
If you support freedom, you must support Fidel Castro.
The most important eight hours of my life.
They gave people stuff.
They're a beacon, a shining model for the rest of the world to follow.
Okay.
So you want that.
So in other words, the model you want to follow is the same model that all people who lived under that rule, the Cubans, the exiles, oppose, reject.
And it's the model that I reject because of the fascism.
But I'm a fascist.
Hey, do you know why I want to keep my guns?
Because I don't want Guevara and Castro.
Here's a bonus for you.
Justin Trudeau's mom, Margaret, in uh 76 responded to Castro's offer to um send her son uh Michelle back to Cuba to attend pioneer camp for children.
She said it was it was very kind of him.
He Castro was very proud of what he was doing with their children in establishing them as strong citizens.
Uh by the way, uh here's Castro and Justin Trudeau side by side.
Yeah, just in case you were It's his yeah, that's a ringer.
I don't even know if it's Liam Neeson or that's his dad.
It's gotta be his dad.
And by the way, just to give you the reality of Cuba, Cuba created the world's largest snitch network.
Uh Castro is at least responsible for 90,000 deaths.
Again, it's hard to have a number because a lot of people aren't allowed in or out.
Uh it included people not only who fought the regime, but people who simply tried to flee the regime.
Basic toiletries, they cost about 150% the average Cuban income.
And uh physician quotas have uh led to forced abortions to reduce the infant mortality rate, just to be clear.
Also, socialism even ruined Cuban cigars, which is like slapping God in the face because it's something you can't recreate anywhere else, but because there's no quality control, and because they can't keep it up, uh, they suck.
They're better from nearly any other country, and someone who tells you they exclusively smoke Cubans is trying to impress you and get laid, they don't know what they're talking about.
At least Castro could have his moments, right?
He was a fun guy.
I get why celebrities kind of gravitated toward him because um he liked to have a laugh and uh even uh you know, would invite them all out to have a few drinks and a roast, and he was good at it.
We are having a good time.
But now I would like to speak about my American friends candidly for a moment, starting with Jane Fonda.
Her critics have called her ignorant and a traitor.
But they're forgetting she is also a tremendous whore.
Why buy Jane Fonda's workout on VHS when you can have the real thing at home for a buck fifty and a good review?
I'm kidding.
I'm kidding.
Love you, slut, love you.
Bob Dillon was actually pretty cool guy, but his girlfriend, what can I say?
He dodged a bullet, unlike Kennedy, which Oliver Stone could not shut up about.
We get it.
He was the CIA.
He's always the CIA.
Get a new thing, Oliver.
I joked.
Speaking of Bob Dylan, what do Bob Dylan and 300 US dollars have in common?
They both only have three notes.
Sean Penn.
There he is, Sean.
What can I say?
At our first meeting, I thought he was how you say a method actor.
Turns out he is actually retarded.
Like straight up recorded.
The guy was nominated for an Oscar for playing himself.
And he still lost.
How are you today, Sean?
I don't know.
Steven Spielberg.
My meeting with him was like close encounters of deterred kind.
Because he's so shitty.
I guess there hasn't been enough underage Adrenachrome to inspire a good movie since Reagan was president.
He likes kid!
He touches kid.
Francis Ford Coppola, Jane Fonda of Winemakers.
And of course, Bernie Sanders, a socialist with three houses.
Reminds me of myself, huh?
Bernie is a man who is often compared to walking human rape.
Because there's no stopping this prick.
The 2016 primary corruption waged against him is proof of the mirage you call democracy.
If the Clintons shafted him any further, he'd be Monica Lewinsky.
And then, then he ran the gang and still lost.
The only thing this man likes more than losing.
He's not tipping.
I don't want to say Bernie Sanders is a cheap Jew.
But if his fist were any tighter, it would be up Harry Belafonte's ass.
Credit where it's due.
He knows I understand I too could fall under the spell of his charm.
He got a few applause breaks.
He did.
He was killing.
He did.
Well, I mean, yeah, a lot.
So listen, I don't I don't think I I properly hated these people enough.
Oh, yeah.
The supporters of these regimes.
Because I think he did a very good job of saying, like, listen, when you're supporting that, you're not supporting some nebulous thing.
You're supporting the death and suppression and uh poverty of people that literally master throw themselves into a raft with little kids with no life jacket, no compass, no motor.
Just I pray to God that the currents take me to Florida.
I mean, would you?
Would I what?
If I would you do that?
I would do that.
I would say that's the same thing.
My children would be on a boat with me.
They're praising the people that cause that.
Yeah.
They're not celebrating.
Some random kind of I want better things for people.
No, no, no.
They're praising the most murderous regimes the world has ever known.
The most oppressive regimes the world has ever known.
And we have Islam.
Okay.
And at the same time calling these people asylum seekers.
Yeah.
I don't know, you know, back in the 70s, 80s, if they were if they were calling.
They don't really do with Cubans, even though they're the only ones who would have anything close to a legitimate claim.
Exactly.
They would have a I won't even say close to.
They have a legitimate claim.
Especially, you know, late 90s.
When I was growing up, there was the whole uh Wetfoot dry foot.
Yeah, Wetfoot Dryfoot was the policy.
There was the there was one kid.
There was a whole situation with a kid in Florida, and they're like, do we send him back?
Do we keep him here?
Oh, yeah.
Gonzalez.
And then Gonzalez.
I remember that was like You could throw a fastball, so we kept him.
Yeah.
Well good.
So well, hopefully they taught him a changeup.
It is weird though, the level of athletes sometimes like in Cuba that that come out of there in uh in track and field for a while in boxing, considering there's no nourishment and no training facilities of note.
You're just like, oh, a man.
Every once in a while it's just like, wow, genetics win.
Well, I I've been there.
I've one of the few people who've been to both Havana and Guantanamo Bay because I had to go shoot a commercial that talked about this uh it was just a Canadian uh film production company blowing their budget to go on a trip to Cuba, and boy, Havana, uh not a nice or safe place, just to be clear.
People go, oh, it's quaint because their taxi cabs are from the 50s.
It's because they they don't have any new cars.
Right.
It's just complete utter poverty.
Yeah.
And uh these these super these stars, they have no idea.
Well, and politicians.
Yeah.
Bernie Sanders, I guarantee him, I'm Donnie would.
What is it possible that he's allowed to be a representative in the United States of America of any people here with that kind of ideology?
I think supporting communism should be seen as treason.
I actually do.
It's treasonous.
It's actually trying to subvert our system.
I think anyone who voices support for again, not ideas of socialism or a socialized health care.
But anyone who voices support for an actual communist fascist dictator, I think should be tried for treason.
That's my opinion.
That's my opinion.
Especially if you're in a position of authority.
I don't think it's I don't think honestly, I don't think it's a terrible opinion, but even if you don't want to go that far, just okay, you can't, you you can't serve in government, sir.
Yeah.
We do things differently here.
Yep.
And it's not that we don't like that system because it's not quite as good.
We've been at war with that system since just after the end of World War II.
Okay.
So we've gone to great lengths to make sure that that doesn't infect this place.
So no.
And Cuban Americans are not just conservative, they are aggressively anti-communist.
Yes, yes.
They are aggressive.
I hate it.
Like, if anything, it gets to be obnoxious where anything that you say that's even remote, like, huh?
What are you a communist?
Huh?
I didn't have money for toilet paper.
Be great folk.
And they hit you.
Yeah, exactly.
It's like poor people from other countries come over here and they're like, you have shelters?
You have food pantries, you have churches that'll give you stuff.
What the hell?
You have dumpsters that have food in them still?
You have dumps that have metal that I can go and get and take to scrap.
Like, they're blown away.
Yeah.
But we give us an immigrant.
Yeah.
That's why he knows.
But you know, they're they're those fascists.
Those Cuban exposed Cuban expats.
They're they're they're fascists, the people who left Cuba.
They're the fascists who come here who say, hey, come on, don't don't do it the way they did it in Communist Cuba.
That's right.
The they're they vote for exclusively fascists, even though they risk life and limb to escape.
Yeah.
Exactly.
I don't know if you saw the did you see the Patrick Bet David, uh, one capitalist surrounded by 20 anti-capitals.
I haven't been able to watch it yet.
No.
Oh, well, he made a great point with one lady.
Uh she she kept uh you know praising communism, and he was like, uh he was naming countries.
He's like, he was like, well, then go there.
I will pay for you to go there.
And she was like, well, none of those are actual communists.
Right.
He's naming China, Cuba, North Korea, and he's and she's like, none of those, none of those are actual communists.
Oh, okay, good.
And then he starts questioning her about what a communist uh communism is and how it works.
And she's trying to, she's it wasn't much of an argument because she kept trying to go back to a stupid question that she had.
Yeah.
That made no sense, and he was trying to make an actual point.
Uh and the point that he was trying to make was that in the communist regime in a communist country, inevitably, one person ends up being in charge, and she wasn't getting it.
It was it was it was pretty good to watch uh somebody in real time not getting it.
They always try and say that communism isn't, it's you think that's what they say.
That's why they say this.
That's why they say, Oh, that's why it didn't work in Cuba.
That's why uh not not Russia's communism, not China's communism, not North Korea's communism.
Even though they were talking about real communism where all the people rule.
Yeah.
Um do you mean through like uh Congress?
No, but no, no, no, no, no.
All the people, they rule it's like, oh, okay, and then nobody's gonna take the lead.
Not one power hungry person is ever going to take charge.
And by the way, in the past, if they thought it was working out, they did support the power hungry person, like Castro.
Yes.
That's the point.
Like they did they they can't, and by the way, the case case close.
Lenin!
All right, when you're talking about a contemporary, you go back, that's the closest.
It's like going to it's a postolicity for the holy text.
Like, who is closest to Jesus Christ or direct contemporary of Jesus Christ?
Okay, Lenin.
Marks, you don't need to all like Seattle.
Yeah.
Oh, you mean the original?
You know what's really funny is that they'll always point.
We've done a segment on this with the uh anarcho-syndicalism in what was it, Spain or Catalonia or whatever.
Yeah, it was Catalonia.
Uh so they lasted like three years.
It lasted three years, and it's funny, Josh, because what you said is the reason why it imploded because nobody was in charge, so nobody did anything.
Yeah.
So and then they got into fights about who should be in charge so that the trees could get back on schedule, and then they ended up just destroying themselves, which was perfect and also very predictable.
Yeah, I had to learn about that in college.
You two two solutions.
I guess a third solution, imploding on itself.
Yeah.
Or one solution is one dictator takes over and takes total control.
Yes.
Or you come up with a governing body of people that turns into some form of a socialist democracy or republic or something like that.
It it just a fantasy.
It's a fan, it's it's a it's a child's.
But here's the thing.
I don't even believe I believe that those young people, maybe maybe she's stupid and believes it.
I don't believe that the people advocating believe it could work for a second.
I believe they know the end game is one person gets power or one government body gets power, and that's what they want.
They just want to be.
I I don't believe for a second that Bernie Sanders thinks there can actually be democratic socialism.
I don't believe that he you he honeymoon in the USSR when we had already seen what it was.
I don't believe that he praised Bernie Sanders.
I don't believe that he praise Bread Lines in uh in Venezuela as good things because he thought, no, no, no, eventually it's going to get to be a democracy.
I think for him, that's exactly what he wants.
That's what all these people want, and they're lying to you about it.
They're selling you a utopia when they know they are delivering hell.
Maybe some young people believe it, but those in charge, they didn't meet with they didn't meet with Castro and talk about how genius he was.
Certainly not Peter Jennings or Turner or Kurick and think, yeah, this is going to be a beacon of democracy.
Right.
That's not why they wanted to export it.
It's because they want to control you.
They are fascist communist, evil, evil people.
There's I'm sorry, like no, no one can make the case anymore at this point in time.
Again, maybe someone could make the case if at least along the trail, consistently these celebrities and politicians were condemning Cuba.
We're condemning the USR, we're condemning China.
But you have them praising all of these places, Venezuela.
You have them going out of their way to praise all of these places that of course inevitably turned into a cesspool of fascism.
How did they gotten it wrong every single time, but we're supposed to believe that theoretically they'll get it right now.
I don't think it's theoretical.
I think they know exactly what'll happen.
And I think they want to deliver that hell to you.
Let's grab some chats.
I just get this the Cuba thing just drives me nuts.
You should.
I had a I had a bitch at a hotel, and I was with my lady, by the way, who you know is half Cuban, and she said something about somehow Cuba came up.
It might have been some drink or something that had something to do with Cuba.
It's a Negroni, it came from Cuba.
Is that what it is?
I I don't that's what some dumb person would say.
And she said something.
She said, Yeah, it's a real shame what the United States did to them.
And I just went, what?
Come again?
And my lady said she saw my eyes change.
And she was like, We're no longer having a nice dinner.
And I just like I couldn't help it.
It's like you you just don't know history and you don't understand anything about what went on with Cuba.
At all.
Why do you say it like that?
And just me?
If we were a little more fascist, if we were a little more strong, man, those people wouldn't be dying in Cuba.
If we said, no, we're not gonna fucking allow it.
What?
Because we're gonna be imperialists, and you know what?
We're not going to allow fascists to kill 90,000 of their own people.
The second you start talking about that and taking away people's rights, any time that we can't, we're gonna stop you.
We're not going to allow it.
And we're not going to allow any people in positions of leadership here to praise it.
That's not allowed here.
So so uh how about this?
How about if uh, you know, I don't know, China decides to go and set up I don't know, missiles uh within ninety miles of the United States.
I don't even care if they're a democratic republic and they have done the world more favors than any other country on the planet from that moment on, yeah, the relationship changes.
I'm sorry.
That's exactly what you're 90 miles from the US.
Said, hey, can we can we put some medium-range ballistic missiles on your territory so that we can threaten the United States?
Yeah, that sounds cool.
Okay.
Right.
The whole thing it's just it's just so evil.
We just look like again, doing research for this.
I was like, Yeah, do you know these people all praise Castro like into the 2000s?
Into the 2000s.
Yeah.
Think about that.
Long beyond when they should have known better.
Should have, yeah, should have known right away.
Exactly.
All right.
Okay.
But I guess uh Meyer Lansky uh corrupted uh a couple of casinos with a Batista, so whatever.
Let's grab two chats.
All right.
First chat from Lona 003.
If all immigrants make their host countries better, why didn't they improve their own country and stay there?
That's exactly right.
How about this?
They should we'll give them a chance.
Yeah.
Everyone deserves a second chance.
All right, you could we're gonna give you a second chance to go fix your country.
Yeah.
There are legit differences, though, with people who are actually seeking asylum.
Sure.
Like people who were fleeing uh Fidel Castro's regime.
Yeah.
Small island, now a lot of options.
Well, because they would have to go to Haiti.
Unarms.
Yeah, yeah.
There's not there's not a lot of options for you.
I I get it with some of these countries like Cuba.
It's a great example.
It is the quintessential example, but uh yeah, but you're absolutely right.
Places like Mexico and uh, you know, Costa Rica, Venezuela, El Salvador, make it better yourself, man.
Yeah.
No, I think you're right.
And who's the one group of immigrants that uh the Democrats all of a sudden decided they wanted us slow down?
Oh, that's right, Cuban.
Cuban immigrants.
Why?
It's weird.
Weird.
Final chat.
All right, final chat from Genetic Spore.
If somehow the commie gets elected for mayor of NYC, shouldn't they honestly get what they voted for and experience the pleasures of socialism, communism?
Gerald and I have had a disagreement on this.
I completely agree with you.
Um at that point in time.
Sort of.
I think either it needs the cancer needs to be like cut out immediately.
In other words, if there was some kind of a national governing body saying, no, no, you don't get to run for mayor because you're a communist.
I'd be fine with that too.
Uh but if it's allowed and he can run, I think people deserve what they vote for at this point in time.
I just want to make sure that we have really, really strong fail-safes in place for us to secede and to punish New York for their misdeeds.
They deserve to be punished, just like Chicago deserves to be punished.
It's like if it's here's the thing, like uh Chicago, and I want but six percent approval for this guy, this mayor there.
Remember that one election comes up, but they'll vote the next guy who's the exact same.
Yes, Josh.
Say it's like a parent when a parent lets the kid, you know, lets the kid fall on the bike.
Yep.
Let's the kid okay, you wanna you want to do the jump?
Yeah.
All right.
Yeah, but the kids are about to grab a live wire that's gonna potentially kill them.
So I agree with both of you if he's a bad kid.
If that's how long did you learn?
How long is a person mayor of New York City?
No, no, no, I don't know.
I mean, four years.
I think they they have a four-year time.
I don't think that's death.
No, no, no.
But I don't think that's death.
Listen, listen.
I listened.
It was death enough for the entire country to focus on making sure that not that communism didn't come to the United States.
That was part of the focus.
The communism didn't come to this hemisphere.
That was the focus.
That was the goal and aim of our country.
So I agree with both of you if it can be fixed after.
You're right.
If they get their medicine and they they repent of their ways, but if it is a cancer that spreads that we allow in New York, we're all gonna be like, what the hell were we thinking?
Well, we're gonna understand.
all right.
I understand, but we also are living in the era of the death of communism.
Because it's I hope it's not working anywhere.
You look at Venezuela, you look at Cuba in other words there aren't young people.
There aren't enough young people who are gonna argue with Patrick Bett David that they think it works I hope that's true.
Yeah.
And Mamdani would be a concentrated version in New York what Obama and Biden were for the country that turned off an entire generation of voters.
I think there's because New York has only been trending badly a small price to pay they need a real shock.
They need a real shock if they're ever going to wake up and if they don't I'm fine with it looking like escape from New York.
I don't care.
I mean it I don't care.
Because it is New York and if you're watching you like are you saying I live in New York you don't care about me.
No I do care about you.
