	Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for Monday the 25th of January 2021.
	I'm John McCallum, and we're going to be talking about Biden's executive presidency, the fact that Bernie fans aren't getting their refunds, and the years of lead that we are moving into.
	But before we do, I guess I'd better let you know that if you'd like to support us or check out with any of our latest reporting, you can go to lotuses.com and you can also check out our premium content.
	Callum and I did a premium podcast today about the ethics of social justice that appears to be doing very well at the moment, generating an awful lot of discussion that we're probably going to have to follow up on because there were some good comments on the article and on the video saying, look, you should have defined this, this and this because I'm not sure what you mean.
	I think you're overlapping these terms.
	It's like, damn, I should have done that right.
	So we'll have to go through that and address some of the points at some point afterwards.
	But anyway, today, well, not today, actually, what happened previously to today, because right now it's very early in the morning in America.
	And so we don't actually know what Biden is going to be doing with the rest of his executive presidency for the day.
	And what that means is, you know, Biden is just going to be signing executive orders, which the economists have given us a nice graph to show us just how many executive orders in what space of time he has been signing.
	And as you can see, if you go back to, say, George W. Bush, he waited about a week before signing.
	Well, no, two weeks, in fact.
	Before signing any executive orders, Obama began with a couple and then Trump begins in basically the same vein for ramping it up.
	And Joe Biden, though, has just blown them all out of the water by doing 25 in his first two days to give you a kind of just a framing of how unprecedented what Biden is doing here is.
	This is frankly Biden going Well, full imperialist, essentially.
	Full, like, imperial executive, where the rules are going to be made from the top down, and you can go hang.
	He's not going to be engaging with the normal democratic process, it seems, or at least not by much.
	But you looked into the executive order history, didn't you?
	Yeah, so if you have executive orders for each president per year of office, because of course Trump for, you know, so on and so forth, well then they're all pretty much around about 50, 60 odds.
	It's not like none of them are really, you know, Trump, Barack or George.
	They're not massive deviations from each other.
	Trump a little bit more, but he's ending full term, so of course he's ramping you up.
	Whereas Joe Biden, this is, yeah, two days in, 25, pretty unprecedented.
	Yeah, he's a third of the way through the year on day two.
	We spoke about this, which is that the reason he's doing this is obviously because every one of those is an undoing of something Donald Trump did.
	So it's like we've got to destroy his entire history and everything he ever did.
	And it sort of demonstrates perfectly how Donald Trump was a kink in the system.
	He was not Barack Obama or George Bush.
	I mean, of course, those guys have got the differences and all the rest of it.
	But Trump is just on a different scale compared to any of these type of people.
	It's like, no, I've got completely different interests, completely different types of people I want to promote.
	Yeah.
	And one thing I find interesting is a lot of what Biden's doing just seems to be full-on Trump derangement syndrome, but we'll get into that in a little bit.
	Yeah, the most absurd being the claim that they need to redo the colour scheme for Air Force One.
	Yeah, I mean, I don't know whether...
	Anyone cares.
	I don't know whether Trump...
	Maybe Trump had recoloured it in some different colour.
	I don't know.
	But, I mean, if he had, don't you have more important things to worry about?
	Yeah, it's not like he put his name on the side.
	Like, he does that on his own plates, so...
	I imagine Joe Biden does that on his own planes as well.
	But anyway, so let's talk about the experts praising Biden's COVID plan, because 10 of these executive orders, almost half of them, were about COVID-19.
	And so this was MSNBC News.
	Experts praising Biden's COVID plan, one that undoing Trump era mistakes will take time.
	So basically, Biden's team have said that the Trump administration left the job of getting vaccination shots into Americans' arms up to state and local governments, which has led to, quote, distribution problems.
	Now, this to me really summarizes the difference, right?
	And this is why I've been describing Biden in a sort of European and honestly Napoleonic method of government.
	So it's essentially executive action from the top and everything is to be centralized at the top of the Grand Pyramid and everything will be cascaded down.
	Whereas Trump was a decentralizer.
	He was fine.
	And this is the point of the federalization of the United States is that each state is not merely a kind of a district under the heel of the Capitol.
	But they so they were complaining that, look, this this has been, you know, left up to the states.
	Therefore, they've been using the term, there's been no plan.
	And Biden has come out and said, right, I've got this ambitious goal of giving 100 million vaccination shots in 100 days.
	It'd be a huge jump from the 17.5 million shots administered since they became available on December 14th.
	So it's Trump's decentralized model versus Biden's centralized.
	But if we go, the first thing to note is that this is actually, you know, saying like, oh, we're going to give a million shots a day.
	That's actually pretty much what Trump left office doing, right?
	As you can see, the rolling daily average, and this chap is a Washington Post journalist, so he's not like some anti-Biden internet partisan or something.
	But this is from Bloomberg's COVID-19 vaccine tracker, 912,000 rolling daily average.
	So when they're sat there going, the rollout has been a dismal failure, well, I mean, it's almost what you're claiming to want to do.
	We want to continue the dismal failure, is what you're saying there.
	Obviously, it's not a dismal failure.
	Exactly.
	And as you can see, it's just the number of vaccines have been growing over time, presumably as production capacity and rollout has increased.
	So Biden is promising them virtually nothing, really, of what is already happening, aside from the idea of it being centralised.
	And the mandate on masks.
	The mandate on masks is one thing, yeah.
	But not that they really work, but that's another conversation in front of the time.
	Not that it matters anymore, right?
	The point is glorification of the dear leader, frankly.
	And I'm really sick of hearing the media spout lies.
	But really, if I was actually really sick of hearing the media spout lies, I probably wouldn't be doing this job, right?
	So anyway, let's go to CNN's coverage of this.
	That's why you do this job, yeah.
	Let's go to CNN's coverage of this, right?
	Biden inheriting non-existent coronavirus distribution plan and must start from scratch, sources say.
	So these sources are...
	Her daughter?
	Her daughter?
	I don't know.
	Unnamed sources in the White House are involved in this.
	Because the factual data doesn't show that.
	Yeah, well that's the point, isn't it, right?
	If there's no distribution plan, how are they already fulfilling Biden's plan of a million a day?
	How have they done it?
	There is nothing for us to rework.
	We are going to have to build everything from scratch.
	Another source described the moment it became clear that the Biden administration would have to essentially start from square one because there is simply no plan as is.
	Wow.
	Just further affirmation of complete incompetence.
	"Okay, thank you unnamed sources who seem to be flying in the face of, I don't know, reality as it's being reported in the data.
	And do we trust these unnamed sources or do we trust Fauci?" I mean, I don't think there are actually that many people who like Fauci, but that doesn't mean that Fauci is just a liar on everything that he says.
	And he came out and said, "Well, we're not starting from scratch because there's activity in the distribution." But what he wants to do is ramp it up.
	Okay, fine, you want to ramp it up.
	But the point is, he literally...
	Again, this woman is, I don't know, Wall Street Journal or Washington Post columnist as well?
	Like, sorry, CNN's White House correspondent.
	Sorry, that was why this particular reporting was used.
	I used it.
	Because the previous one was obviously CNN saying, oh, we're starting from scratch.
	And then CNN White House correspondent was like, actually found she's not starting from scratch.
	So, shut up.
	But anyway, Biden's got this giant plan.
	He's been promising this massive plan.
	All the way through the campaign, it was always, you know...
	But the plan is to do nothing.
	Well, that's literally it, yeah.
	Trump doesn't have a plan.
	I have a plan.
	What's your plan, Joe?
	And the plan is, actually, sorry, there's nothing that we can do.
	We're doing everything we can.
	And it's like, okay.
	So, and, quote, there's nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months.
	So...
	Do nothing.
	Is that the plan?
	That's it.
	Because what he's saying there is there's nothing the central government can do.
	Yeah.
	Whereas the state governments are doing what they can do.
	That's why you have that rollout.
	So what was all this about?
	This was all about lies.
	This was all about setting a narrative.
	This is all about putting in the reader's minds the idea that Trump had, I don't know, irresponsibly shirked his duty to try and help, which he hadn't, and that Biden was some sort of, you know, divine North Korean style savior who's going to come in and descend from the heavens and start doling out COVID vaccines, which he won't.
	It's a big theatre.
	It's a big fiction, and I kind of hate it.
	But of course, Biden has been incompetent in many ways.
	I mean, the 25,000 troops that were deployed to Washington, D.C. as part of their security precaution, the insane paranoia that there was going to be some giant uprising to depose the government or something didn't exactly help.
	Between 150 and 200 members of the National Guard tested positive for the coronavirus since being called to protect Joe Biden's inauguration.
	And just so you know, apparently 5,000 of these troops are going to remain in the capital until March.
	Well, it says 5,000 reported by the Postmillennial, but I've seen 7,000 said elsewhere.
	But yeah, again, so now we have an occupational force in the capital that just happens to be spreading COVID as well.
	I mean, if they care about COVID, I don't know.
	Well, no, it's just large gatherings cause it.
	Of course it is.
	While large gatherings of military personnel also cause it.
	But it's the point here that this was also just completely pointless.
	The only violence on Inauguration Day...
	Came from the left, yeah.
	...to current knowledge was anti-far violence.
	Yes.
	Well, what's that got to do with the far right attacking Joe Biden or anything like this?
	Not much, but again...
	There wasn't any.
	...doesn't seem to be the issue.
	He seems to just want to have 5,000 troops on hand...
	Just in case.
	Because, you know, the American public are out there.
	You want to be careful.
	Good grief.
	Now go make them sleep in the cellar.
	I read some comparisons.
	People are trying to compare this to the Grenadier Guard that armed the queen.
	And that's not what these guys are.
	Like, the Secret Service exists to protect the president.
	They have guards in all of the buildings.
	You've got the local police protecting these buildings.
	Biden's constantly shadowed by, you know, the Secret Service.
	Yeah, the extra 7,000.
	I mean, you don't have 7,000 Grenadier Guards on call every day.
	7,000 is a huge number as well.
	It's low guys.
	Yeah, just as a standing force in the capital.
	No, it is something unneeded.
	And is there...
	for what reason, we don't know.
	I mean, unless you're actively at war, what the hell is the point of this?
	But again...
	I suppose you are.
	Exactly, exactly.
	Maybe you are actively at war.
	Incidentally, the World Health Organization has the post-millennial report.
	They've been doing some great work recently.
	The World Health Organization issued a notice one hour after Biden was sworn in to let us know, oh, by the way, you know those tests?
	Actually, they give a lot of false positives.
	You just might want to be aware of that.
	And it's like, oh, really?
	That's really interesting, isn't it?
	Like, what weird timing.
	Anyway, so going back to Biden's executive orders.
	His executive orders on COVID are going to do very little.
	It isn't already being done.
	And his executive orders, let's talk about jobs.
	We heard from the Washington Post on the 8th, I believe this was released, this published, this article, that Trump will have the worst jobs record in US modern history.
	It's not just the pandemic, apparently.
	According to...
	Yeah, exactly.
	No, no, no.
	It gets better, right?
	It gets better.
	By which I mean it gets worse.
	Friday's awful jobs report from the Labor Department showed there were 3 million fewer jobs in the United States than there were on an inauguration day in 2017, when Trump stood in front of the Capitol and vowed to reverse the American carnage.
	No other modern president has left the U.S. with a smaller workforce than when they took office.
	Since the government started keeping track in 1939, no other president has ever seen significant job losses during a single presidential term, The job growth during George W. Bush's four terms was essentially flat.
	The catastrophic job losses during Trump's presidency were not sparked by his labour market policies, at least at first.
	They were caused by the arrival of the deadly novel coronavirus and the slumping consumer demand and business closures that followed.
	Wait, so they just admitted it?
	They just admitted it in the article.
	They just admit it in the article.
	But also, we've got the graph on screen.
	In the headline, they claim it's not because of coronavirus, and in the article, yeah, well, it's not his labour market policies.
	But also just their thumbnail here.
	We have this on screen for the audience.
	What do you think caused the drop there?
	Do you think that's his policies over time?
	Or do you think that's maybe a national lockdown because of coronavirus?
	But the thing is, the lockdowns happened in Democrat areas against Trump's wishes.
	So basically, you have in California or New York, the Democrat governors who are never Trumpers, who hate Trump, who have been saying, we refuse any help we can get from you, you are an evil man, blah, blah, blah.
	They are locking down their own local economies and then saying, this is Trump's fault.
	It's literally the stick meme, like shoving in the bike.
	Literally the stick meme.
	Oh, how could Trump do this to us?
	It's unreal.
	And it's so transparent.
	It's just on the face of it.
	I'm looking at that graph, you know, for the early part where his growth is taking place.
	I mean, who's better there?
	Johnson?
	I think Johnson Carter might be the only two.
	Pretty much.
	I mean, Nixon supersedes him there, but Trump...
	Buy me for the first half, though.
	Yeah, Trump's on a steady upward trajectory of...
	But a pretty good one as well.
	Yeah, yeah, perfectly fine.
	And it's...
	Oh, God, we're going to have to lock everything down to stop Trump at this rate.
	Okay, well, I mean...
	You know, the only people who can stop you are the people who vote for you, and apparently they're blaming Trump for you locking them down, but okay.
	So, Trump didn't destroy jobs, and the Washington Post just admit that he didn't do it, and it was the coronavirus, which means it was the Democratic governors.
	So, moving on, let's get to, you know, this is the context we're going into, and then we get to Joe Biden's work.
	Now, this was a tweet from a chap who claims to be a farmer from Tennessee.
	I don't know whether he's a farmer from Tennessee, but I read through all the replies to see if there's anyone contradicting anything he'd said, and I couldn't find anything.
	And he's claiming that because of Joe Biden's executive orders, farmers like himself have just lost $100,000 on a 200-bushel-per-acre average corn crop.
	It's like, wow, that's not very useful, is it?
	Why the hell would he do that?
	But Biden's executive orders...
	The flurry of them, it's amazing how much destruction can be done with the stroke of a pen.
	So if you go to the next one, you see Frank Marichirola, the Senior Vice President of Policy, Economics and Regulatory Affairs at the American Petroleum Institute.
	Petrol industry paid expert, just to be aware.
	But he thinks that this could end up costing up to a million American jobs through the closure of the Keystone XL pipeline, which directly will cost 11,000 jobs, in itself indirectly 60,000 jobs, and then the excess being the consequent industries that would be affected by this.
	On the federal scale.
	You can see just there, there's actually a bit of a stupid argument here.
	So Biden's administration are trying to argue it's only 11,000 jobs directly, and then they're saying the indirect jobs don't count.
	Yes.
	So you can see there's 60,000 indirect jobs also going.
	Yes, because what's happened is there's been a full-scale ban on development on federal lands for oil and gas, which is like, okay, but, I mean, Trump spent a lot of time making the U.S. energy independent and And now you're destroying the US energy economy.
	I mean, New Mexico, there were various complaints from governors in New Mexico complaining that New Mexico voted for Biden and we're heavily dependent on the oil industry.
	Why are you doing this to us?
	It's like, wow, you get what you deserve, don't you?
	Maybe you should have got your dead voters to vote Trump.
	But anyway, so, I shouldn't laugh, but it's like, sorry, sorry, why did you think, man, there are loads, did I put the, there are loads of people on Twitter, yeah, yeah, I'll get to that in a second, there are loads of people on Twitter complaining, hang on a second, I didn't vote for this when I voted for Joe Biden, it's like, yeah, you did.
	But anyway, I went and looked up some fact checks for this, and the fact checks came back as half true, as in, yeah, okay, it's true that 11,000 jobs are going to go, but those jobs were only temporary, and it's like...
	I mean, every building job is temporary by that standard.
	Like, no one ever works in construction if...
	Forever.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Okay, the building is finished.
	Great.
	Well, your job's over.
	You're no longer employed in construction.
	It's like...
	So unless you're constructing it for...
	Yeah, exactly.
	Until the end of time.
	It's going to be a 20-year project.
	Okay, then it's not a real job.
	Right, okay.
	It's only 20 years.
	It's only temporary.
	Yeah.
	And so with destroying these jobs, what's interesting, I mean, it's going to cost billions of dollars in wages for regular people, right?
	But as Jack Sobiek reports on Twitter, apparently union leaders have been going mad at Joe Biden.
	Because obviously a bunch of the unions all endorse Biden and say, oh yeah, Biden's going to be fine.
	He's not going to ban fracking, which he claimed.
	He's not going to damage these industries because obviously these are the unions.
	These are the jobs that unions themselves depend upon to even exist as unions.
	And so Biden has really solved the union problem by just getting rid of their jobs.
	But apparently, wall, pipelines, gas, coal, etc., all of these work sites are closing on a daily basis thanks to his executive orders.
	They're being told to call back a few weeks, and some calls aren't even being answered, says a White House official.
	Well, that's good news.
	I just have to say you're a moron.
	You saw what was happening in the eight years before you guys were getting screwed.
	All of your jobs were being shipped overseas.
	And a lot of guys went over to Trump's campaign because of that reason.
	And then you had the boom, and then you flipped back to Biden.
	Why?
	Don't know.
	You hate your own members?
	Yeah.
	What was in it for you?
	Unemployment, I guess, is what was in it for you.
	Now, Joe Biden claims that these jobs are going to be replaced with green energy jobs.
	So he promised during the presidential campaign to ban hydraulic fracking on federal lands.
	I've seen contradicting reports there.
	Yeah, because it came from him.
	He said that he was going to do it and also not going to do it.
	Yeah, when he was in Pennsylvania, he was like, I won't ban fracking.
	It's like, okay, well, here we are.
	I mean, Trump, for all his flaws, seems to have tried to do what he said he was going to do.
	But he said he would create more jobs with his $2 trillion climate and energy plan, which seeks to supplant fossil fuels with solar and wind power and electricity generation by 2035 and achieve net zero by 2050.
	Now, I know that you're hungry today, right?
	And that tomorrow you'll rents due and that you're thinking, God, how am I going to pay for my kids' schools or whatever it is?
	But by 2035, it will be clean.
	So don't worry about it.
	You'll be fine by then.
	I don't understand why anyone would think this is a good idea.
	I hate the massive gaps in concern where it's like, yeah, but.
	But anyway, this is not good, generally.
	And this, again, I think is not just because of ideological drive.
	I think it is that there are a lot of people around Biden who've put all of these ideas into him and his manifesto, because I don't really think he came up with these by himself.
	And this has created a kind of whirlwind of TDS that surrounds Joe Biden and informs everything he does, like firing the butler who was supposed to open the door to the White House.
	So, yeah, to the White House.
	So, after the inauguration, like, Biden and his wife, Jill, are due to go in, as you can see on the screen if you're watching.
	And he can't get in because no one's there to open the door.
	Because the guy who was supposed to open the door was a Trump appointee and Biden literally said, well, we want to get rid of anyone who is connected to Trump.
	So yeah, that's right.
	The butler who opens the door is going to be a secret Trump insider.
	And was going to what?
	Undermine the whole administration.
	Exactly.
	You know, I mean, I guess day one was successful.
	You can't even get in the White House, can you?
	What was the butler going to do?
	I don't know.
	I mean, light candles, I guess.
	Open doors.
	See?
	And now the Biden administration is scuttled.
	But anyway, again, this is just an example of TDS, right?
	Who cares about this Butler guy, right?
	But then you get this report from the Postmillennial, where Biden has rescinded an executive order that prevented China from buying up the US power supply, power grid.
	Now, this wasn't rescinded for the reason that Trump had done it explicitly.
	It was rescinded because it was part of Biden's environmental agenda.
	So he obviously has some sort of radical plan.
	He wants to change all of this.
	And so he needs to get rid of Trump's protections, opening it up for China to be able to buy all these things in.
	And so it's not that Biden is necessarily trying to give China access.
	You know, let's assume that two stacks...
	Haven't arrived yet, right?
	And that Biden is just trying to do the best he can in the way he thinks.
	Either way, this is still Trump derangement syndrome on full display.
	And this is what, like, coming in like a bull in a china shop.
	You know, oh, I'm going to undo everything Trump's done.
	It's like, okay, but, I mean, some of the things that Trump did were actually really decent, and maybe you should think about them.
	But speaking of Trump, as we have to constantly, because he lives in everyone's mind, what's Trump been doing?
	And more importantly, what have the media been doing in regards to Trump?
	Well, if we can see the picture, they've been creeping on him like a bunch of weirdos.
	I mean, where is this photo taken from, right?
	This is a photo, for anyone who's just listening, of Trump in a golf cart on a golf course somewhere in Florida, presumably, you know, relaxing now that he's no longer the president and taking...
	Some, you know, much needed rest and relaxation.
	Getting some exercise.
	Acting like a private citizen.
	And the weird press are in the bushes.
	I don't know, like, a shack in the bushes or something.
	Take your photos and get in there and go...
	It's like, what are you doing?
	What is wrong with you?
	You know?
	Like, they just can't stop thinking about that.
	Are we going to get, like, pictures of Trump's bathroom or something through now?
	God.
	They're going to go searching through his trash.
	Yes, exactly.
	Exactly.
	I don't doubt that they are already.
	Okay, fine.
	But yeah, weirdly though, one thing Biden didn't do is choose to move the embassy, the US embassy in Jerusalem, which the left are not very happy with.
	Imperialist Biden administration will keep embassy in Jerusalem.
	Well, I mean, maybe it's somehow tied to all that Middle East peace that Trump managed to bring about.
	Who knows?
	But they're not happy with it.
	Biden's an imperialist.
	I can't believe we voted for him and promoted him.
	Unbelievable, say the left.
	Biden's approval rating is an interesting thing, though.
	As he comes into office, he's actually less popular than Trump was, according to a Rasmussen poll.
	I believe Rasmussen more than I believe the other pollsters, to be honest.
	And it seems to be because Rasmussen actually do telephone calls.
	But anyway, so when Trump took office, his approval rating in the same poll was 56%.
	Biden's is 48%.
	When Obama entered office, it was 67%.
	When...
	When Trump entered office, his disapproval rating was 44% and Biden's is 45%.
	When Trump entered office, 38% strongly approved, whereas when Biden enters, only 36% strongly approve.
	So by at least that poll, it seems that Biden is actually not the people's president as the apparent...
	He's underperforming the very divisive Donald Trump going into it.
	But Biden has underperformed in every metric, apart from when it comes to the vote, the popular vote, incidentally, not like the vote spread out across the United States, just in the popular votes, in certain key battleground areas.
	Biden massively overperformed.
	But in every other aspect, Biden has underperformed, including in the primary and all other things.
	And yeah, so there are a lot of Biden voters and supporters, diehard Biden supporters, who seem to be not very happy.
	Now, there's a Twitter account called Biden Voters Posting Their Ls Online, which has been aggregating these.
	This is one of them, and I love this so much, right?
	This is massive, massive regret from a chap called Jameson with a little LGBT flag in his profile.
	He says, how do we go from a $15 federal minimum wage to a $15 minimum wage for federal workers?
	This is feeling very $600 plus $1400 equals $2000 all over again.
	Now, I just want to stress, everything he said there is correct, right?
	Biden doesn't have the power to just arbitrarily say that all businesses have to pay their workers $15 an hour minimum wage, but he can make sure that the minimum wage for federal workers is $15 an hour.
	He also is right when he says $600 plus $1400 is $2000.
	I mean, that is a factually true statement.
	So when he's like, this is feeling $600 plus $1,400 equals $2,000 all over again, reality.
	Reality is currently happening and has been happening the whole time.
	And he's upset about it.
	One piece of information that's being left out there is actually, I believe, the $15 minimum wage for federal workers is not immediate.
	It has to be like 10 years or something like that before it comes up to that place.
	So it'll be increased over that time period to $15.
	I just assumed that they were going to set it through fiat, obviously.
	So, and show on head, I've got to mention, because she was a big proponent of this.
	Yep.
	Yep, not happening.
	Sorry.
	You get what you vote for.
	And like the Bernie bros say, no refunds.
	Is that right?
	Yeah.
	So I decided to look through, because it popped up a lot on different social medias, the fact that a lot of people were upset.
	The living Biden voters we were able to find were upset that their dreams have not come true.
	Oh, no.
	Because no one actually looked at the man they were voting for, or his manifesto, or anything else.
	It was just orange man bad.
	Yes.
	And in that vein, I have some sympathy for these people in the sense of...
	Well, yeah, you got sold down the river, but I also have no sympathy in the sense of you get what you deserve, because you should have checked out the candidate, you should have locked up his manifesto, you should have looked at his history.
	I mean, he literally looks like a white walker.
	Well, it's not the way he looks.
	I don't really give a toss about the man.
	Oh, I do.
	But it's...
	The fact that, like, you know, this guy is part of the swamp, always has been.
	Yeah.
	So this is another Hillary Clinton.
	Why are you promoting this if you're the resistance?
	And it's because you're not the resistance.
	I remember literally...
	I mean, didn't ContraPoints endorse Biden as well?
	I don't know.
	I'm pretty sure she did.
	I imagine she would.
	Yeah, no.
	There were many lefties like...
	I guess you're going to have to vote for Joe Biden.
	It's like, really?
	You're going to vote for the avatar of the problem?
	I mean, Trump, no matter what you think of him, left or right, you know, whatever it is, right?
	He is at least not the status quo that have caused a necessary political actor like Trump to appear, right?
	Trump is not the source of the problem.
	People like Joe Biden are the source of the problem.
	And everyone knows this.
	This is not secret.
	But anyway, sorry, Karen.
	So the first thing that popped up that I saw in regards to no refunds was this image kept coming up, and it looks like a tweet from Black Lives Matter saying, I'm starting to get a feeling that the Democratic Party used us, and then two facepalms.
	This isn't real.
	This is a meme someone made up.
	But it comes from a place of truth, which is, if we can get the next one, we've covered this previously, that Black Lives Matter did actually tweet out that Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and so on and so forth had a civil rights meeting, and they did not invite Black Lives Matter.
	They were not interested in their opinion.
	To the best of our knowledge, Joe Biden has yet to call Black Lives Matter back.
	So they're still sitting by the phone.
	Gonna be sitting there a while by the looks of it.
	So no, that might be a meme, but it is a real meme that yes, you were used.
	Can't believe the guy who complained about racial jungle has not called you back.
	I don't want to quote Biden.
	Might get the platform for it.
	Good point.
	Let's keep moving.
	Don't ask about his position on gay marriage either.
	Or homosexuality itself.
	Or the Klan.
	I mean, he's really done a 180 in the past few years.
	So this is not just a single BLM being shoved to the curve.
	A lot of people have been shoved to the curve here.
	So one that I didn't even think about was insulin.
	So this guy here, who's the Alliance for Diabetes, congratulations, Joe Biden.
	Oh, look at those love hearts.
	And then he passed an executive order to get rid of Trump's order that insulin was to be capped, and then quite upset.
	That insulin is going to increase in price.
	Why, Joe?
	What was wrong with Trump's price cap on insulin?
	This is another...
	I mean, it's not...
	I mean, are they going to give me free market arguments?
	They're going to be like, well, hang on a second.
	Listen, right?
	Listen, we can go back to the edict of Diocletian, right?
	Exactly.
	Price caps just don't work, right?
	You're putting artificial pressure on the market that manifests elsewhere.
	No, of course not.
	Yeah.
	I mean, the American system for charging for things like insulin is pretty absurd.
	The rest of the world looks at America and we find it weird.
	But this is another fan who got destroyed by reality, which is that, no, it's not on your side.
	And then we have Lauren Wolf.
	So this is an editor for the New York Times.
	Oh, yes.
	And this is a great story.
	So her complaining about cancel culture not being real.
	And this sort of caught my eye because I remember watching, I think it was the Republican National, what do they call it, Congress?
	Convention.
	Convention, yeah.
	Yeah.
	And they had a bunch of speeches, and they kept bringing up cancel culture.
	The speakers kept saying, we've got to destroy cancel culture.
	I was a bit like, what is this?
	Is this a weird part of the internet becoming part of the mainstream politics again?
	I didn't expect them to say it, but no, it is another antifa where it's just an idea that doesn't exist until it does.
	So this lady saying it doesn't exist, and then she tweeted out, Joe Biden was landing, I have chills.
	In his private plane.
	Yep, which was against the New York Times policy of being impartial.
	And then what happened is that she lost her job.
	She was fired for being partisan.
	Hard to fathom all the talk of cancel culture on my timeline while I'm left without an income during a pandemic.
	I'm not an ideology.
	I'm a hardworking person who can no longer pay her bills.
	Wow, now you know how literally every other person who's been cancelled feels.
	You know, the idea that she's not some kind of ideologue, well, it depends on your definition, but you're clearly partisan, so yeah, you did do that thing.
	And again, an injustice for your enemy is still an injustice, but you also get what you deserve, lady, because you said, this isn't real, this doesn't happen, and then when it happens to you, she then deleted her account.
	She deleted her account.
	Unreal.
	She couldn't take the heat, which is like, okay, yeah, yeah, isn't this bad?
	Isn't this a horrible thing that happens in our culture now?
	Yeah, but can we go back to the previous tweet a sec, John?
	Because, like, I love this, right?
	I'm not an ideology.
	I'm a hard-working person who can no longer pay her bills.
	I mean, that could apply to literally every single, quote, far-right person who has been cancelled.
	These are hard-working people who can no longer pay their bills because of a mob culture.
	You know, who's TR, the guy who shall not be mentioned?
	Voldemort, yeah.
	He's got two kids, three kids?
	Yeah, we'll talk about him in a bit.
	I don't know if she has any kids.
	Anyway, let's carry on.
	So the next thing there was the fact that Joe Biden, of course, saying he had a plan in eight months against this pandemic.
	I couldn't find that tweet.
	But then we had the bad moment, which is you mentioned that, no, there is no plan.
	There's nothing we can do for the next several months.
	So anyone who was hoping that he would do things on COVID, well, there is nothing because it's already being done.
	He's doing his best to centralize power in the presidency, but, you know, it's constitution.
	It's a nightmare.
	That's about it.
	What can we do?
	Yeah, so then the next one is the...
	If we can get the next one up.
	Sorry, that's him saying that the economic crisis is also deepening.
	It's not going to get better.
	So people thinking that, I don't know, he was going to, you know, wizard the economy back into being.
	I mean, if you're going to cancel loads of jobs through fiat, then yeah, sure, of course it's not going to get better.
	Except there is something he could do.
	This is actually kind of a lie, the idea that the economy's screwed in the United States.
	Well, you know, it's only screwed if you keep screwing it.
	If you open it up, you will get a better economy.
	Yeah, I mean, the automatic thing that leaps to mind about this is, well, what did Trump do?
	Maybe you could consider doing that.
	Well, it's not that, because as we mentioned, the thing that really killed it was the lockdowns and COVID. Oh, yeah, absolutely.
	Well, there's another lady who's having both regret here, Dr.
	Naomi Wolf, talking about the fact that, oh, Biden's pro-lockdowns.
	I had no idea.
	So she said, if I had known that Biden was open to lockdowns, as he now states, which is something historically unprecedented in any pandemic and a terrifying practice...
	One that won't ever end because elites love it.
	I would never have voted for him.
	And then Ian Myles Chong in the comments said, we told you.
	I don't know how you could have not known this.
	But that's the thing you could do to save the economy, which is, you know, stop.
	As Cuomo's got to the point where he's like, look, we just have to open up.
	We have to do something.
	And now that Biden's present, they can have like 25% capacity in their restaurants.
	I love how no one's noticing this, like Cuomo coming out, the guys in California saying we need to open up, and just all of a sudden the narrative's gone.
	Biden's in office, now we can just ignore the idea.
	CNN have removed the daily death tracker from their reporting.
	It's amazing, isn't it?
	But there's also the National Guard, as you said, so this is where I got the figure of 7,000 National Guard troops staying in D.C. to guard against...
	MAGA? MAGA? Where are they?
	They didn't come out on inauguration day.
	If so, if it's a couple of lone wolves, you have the Secret Service, you have the DC police, you have the FBI, you have the CIA. But no, you need 7,000 troops to continue protecting DC. Well, I mean, it's rather hard to intimidate the American public without a sizable extended military presence.
	I wish I had a spare shoe like Ben Shapiro does.
	Because I remember he used to do the whole, you know, shoe on the other foot and hold the shoe.
	Like, if Trump had done this, what would be said about what's going on here?
	You know, if Trump pulls in military units, 7,000 of them, to continue protecting the Capitol in the face of no threat.
	Well, they'd scream fascist, obviously.
	Yeah, this would be a coup, this would be fascism, blah blah blah blah.
	Since we've touched on that, just to have a quick interjection.
	I'm so sick of people going, ah, we topple the fascist dictator.
	That's not how it works.
	You're absolutely idiots.
	I mean, I can't think of a single fascist dictator that was elected out of office.
	No, no, I haven't got one.
	So, just, you didn't, you know, if you voted them out, they weren't a dictator.
	This is definitionally true.
	Anyway, sorry, carry on.
	I just love the idea of, like, you know, I don't know, Xi Jinping's worried about the election.
	Oh, yeah, cool.
	What are my poll ratings?
	Anyway, you mentioned fracking, but I wanted to go into this a little bit deeper.
	So, you know, if we can get the next one up, this is Kamala Harris saying, Joe Biden will not ban fracking.
	That's a fact.
	Even though there was a video of her saying, there is no question I'm in favor of banning fracking.
	Uh...
	Of course, that doesn't make sense.
	And then we have the next one here was the unions.
	So, one of the unions you mentioned were the Plumbers and Pipefitters Union, endorsing Vice President Joe Biden for president on the basis that...
	I don't understand the reasoning.
	He's not Trump.
	Just not Orange Man.
	And then, of course, the next one is them going, ah.
	He stabbed us in the back.
	I can't believe it, guys.
	What were you expecting?
	He literally has a whole section about the Green Industrial Revolution, which is about banning fossil fuels.
	He literally has, I'm going to stab you in the back written on his manifesto.
	And you went, yeah, that sounds good.
	I'll sign up.
	Jesus.
	And it's not just the Keystone XL pipeline, which is harming the fact that my understanding is that's fracking in Alberta being dragged down.
	So that's him going after that.
	But also oil and gas in New Mexico.
	So this is a 60-day moratorium on new oil and gas leases in New Mexico.
	And there's some concern about this.
	So the locals are pretty...
	That's how we make money.
	...pretty peeved that basically their money is about to disappear.
	Oh, yeah, that was another thing as well.
	Sorry to, like, through the Keystone XL pipeline, where they're like, oh, it goes through native lands.
	It's like, yeah, well, who are they going to be employing then?
	Natives.
	So you've just robbed a load of, you know, Native Americans of money.
	Indians do not deserve to have money.
	No.
	This is the white man's money.
	He's tainted.
	You know, go back to living in the woods or whatever you people do, says Joe Biden.
	So there's a statement here from a local mayor who's being screwed and the local people being screwed.
	Because they're worried this isn't going to be 60 days, because 60 days is pretty bad.
	It's 60 days now, but then it was two weeks to flatten the curve then, wasn't it?
	Yeah, so they're convinced this is actually going to be a permanent thing.
	On federal land, you won't get any more drilling.
	So he says, eliminating drilling on public lands will cost thousands of New Mexicans their jobs and destroy what's left of our state's economy.
	You can see the language there.
	Destroy what's left of it.
	Like, we're already in a situation, Biden.
	What the hell are you doing?
	You guys voted Democrat.
	Like, Trump was like, hey, let's make some money.
	And you guys were like, no.
	I wanted to show a graph in New Mexico, because I found this interesting, which is...
	Have you not got the...
	Oh, sorry.
	This is the voter data before we get into that.
	So this is New Mexico, how they voted.
	And I just wanted to remind people, yep, they voted Joe Biden, 54%.
	Yep, 43% Trump.
	The libertarians weren't even the deciding factor here.
	You did get what you deserved there, mate.
	Sorry.
	So the next one is the graph I was mentioning.
	You can see here, this is oil production in New Mexico.
	And so where does it start skyrocketing there?
	Hmm.
	Weird.
	Have a guess.
	2016, roughly.
	2017.
	Skyrockets up.
	And this, you know, all part of America being energy independent.
	Looks like that gravy trains over.
	And it's the point of, okay, so all the three of these actions are him going after the production of oil.
	Like, I had a message from a guy, and I got all the comments when we were talking about fracking before.
	The guy wanted to explain how fracking works, and some comments saying it's bad because of these reasons, good because of these reasons.
	Sure.
	Quite frankly, I don't care about the process in the slightest.
	In the same way, I don't care about the process of drilling just to get standard oil.
	No one cares about that.
	The point is that you get the oil.
	The oil is the thing that's important, obviously.
	Because the whole thing about oil and the reason it keeps coming up every conversation is because it's what keeps America out of foreign wars.
	Like, all of the wars in the Middle East, what are those about?
	Well, oil, obviously.
	People say, oh, but they want to set up friendly regimes in Iraq so the region can be better.
	It's like, yeah, but why do we even care about the region?
	Yeah, exactly.
	Because of the oil.
	So fundamentally, that's what it comes down to.
	And this is the point of these things are not unconnected.
	So the Green Industrial Revolution and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, well, it doesn't seem to be coming, but what is coming is the shutting down on the production of oil within the US.
	And what's that going to do?
	There's going to be a larger demand than there is supply, and we're going to have to get the oil elsewhere.
	So how are we going to get it?
	Send troops into Syria?
	By force.
	And there's Jack Posobiec pointing out here that these things are connected.
	So Biden cancelled the Keystone Pipeline, banned fracking and drilling permits, and then sent a large military convoy into Syria, as we mentioned.
	Are you paying attention?
	These things are not unconnected.
	Yes.
	America is back, baby.
	And I wanted to sum this up with the last person who's having a buyer's remorse, which is some lady saying, I didn't vote for this.
	I didn't vote for war.
	What's going on?
	Biggest fear of Biden presidency was foreign policy.
	In just three days, he's authorizing troops escalation in Iraq and Syria.
	I didn't vote for this.
	Did you?
	Has corporate media mentioned this?
	Is your representative funded by MIC like mine?
	So she's complaining that, you know, how dare he be bustering up the military to presumably end up going into another foreign water Jen Perlman, I'm so, so shocked that this is your red pill moment.
	That you got lied to by the politicians and the media working in concert together specifically to deceive you.
	This is your red pill moment, Jen.
	I didn't vote for this.
	Well, yeah, you did.
	So we get the next one up.
	It's just our opinion.
	Ban fracking.
	Hashtag Green New Deal.
	Well, what did you think was going to happen?
	Nothing.
	Like, we have to get the oil.
	America needs hot oil.
	There is no cause and effect.
	That's the point.
	They think there is no cause and effect.
	They think, oh, we'll just ban that, and then that's it.
	Problem solved.
	Issue goes away.
	Nothing else happens.
	And there's the point.
	Some people complaining about fracking creates earthquakes.
	Apparently it does.
	Apparently there's some issue with the water it can set on fire.
	I've seen some arguments for and against that being natural.
	But I don't really care.
	Neither of those things are foreign wars.
	Like, foreign war or Oklahoma shaking.
	Well...
	One of these things is less destructive than the other.
	But there we go.
	That's all the people having buyer's remorse, and I'm sad to say to all them, no refunds.
	Sorry.
	That's my ending.
	Get what you deserve.
	Yeah, and so it's in what I think is going to be an economic downturn that we see ourselves entering into the years of lead.
	Now, years of lead was a term that was used by the Italians to describe the period of time between like 69 to 89 in Italy where things weren't very good.
	There was lots of left and right-wing terrorism and something of a kind of social war going on.
	Something that I think can be described as fifth-generational warfare.
	Now, I wanted to preface this by invoking the fallout term, war, war never changes.
	It does, actually.
	And I've always kind of hated that line, because what they're trying to do is speak to a fundamental essence of suffering that underpins war.
	War is a difficult and arduous thing that just brings destruction and suffering, and therefore, in that respect, war never changes.
	But in every other respect, war absolutely does change.
	It changes quite a lot, depending on who's fighting, what they're fighting for, and the time period they're fighting in.
	And the concept of fifth-generational warfare is one I find very interesting, because I think at this point we can agree that basically each faction hates, fears, and mistrusts the other.
	They don't understand one another, and they've got no particular interest in actually coming down and trying to resolve any of the differences they appear to have.
	And so I think that what we're heading into is this fifth-generational warfare.
	Now, this was introduced by academics in 2008 and 2018, where it seems to have gained prominence.
	But the argument is that fifth-generational warfare is group versus group conflict in a competition for cultural dominance and value-based legitimacy and authority, which exists within the state but is not necessarily waged against the state.
	Kind of BS. That's an academic who's gotten the term psyops and academiced it up, in my opinion.
	No, no, no, no.
	I think they're right.
	I think they're right.
	It's a correct description of a thing that happens, but I think they've over-academiced it.
	Yeah, yeah.
	It's obviously social groups that are vying for dominance within the current existing paradigm.
	But they're waging psychological warfare against each other.
	Yeah, yeah, yes.
	In fact, that's what they say.
	Fifth generation warfare is unique that it need not be kinetic, which means physical war, but fought in informational domains.
	In the current context, fifth generational warfare might be seen to be conducted more or less in the domain of non-professional fighters.
	This generation of warfare is engendered by the narrative of social movements which may be expressed in mob or pack circumstances.
	It may be considered identity-based war in an attempt to dominate the opposing culture or other culture.
	And we see this all the time.
	I'm going to give a few examples.
	I mean, I could have picked dozens.
	Thousands of examples.
	I mean, pretty much all of my internet career has been tracking fifth-generational warfare.
	The term culture war.
	Exactly.
	It's exactly what they're describing.
	But this one I found particularly entertaining.
	And so I've never seen a TV program called The Rookie before.
	But if we can get to the next one, John.
	The star of this, or one of the stars of this, is a chap called Titus Makin, who's debating going back to season three, blah, blah, blah, blah, right?
	But the point is, he plays a black police officer.
	Now, I imagine that when he started playing this role, this wasn't quite as controversial as it is now.
	So he says that he found himself doing some soul-searching after the police killings of George Floyd and Brianna Taylor.
	He says, a lot of people are finding a voice, and I found that for myself.
	I was like, oh, wow, I've been complacent.
	I woke up one morning, and I was watching the news, and I was like, I can't do this.
	I can't go and play a cop on a show and not talk about the fact that I'm a black cop.
	My character hadn't addressed any of that.
	It was a bit of a bigger situation than I was able to fully describe at the time because it starts back for me, even just playing a cop in the first place, which was a hurdle with where I'm from and how I viewed cops growing up, to play one.
	I was already wrestling with, oh man, people are going to think I'm team cops.
	Okay.
	I mean, like, if we're talking about fifth-generation warfare, it's like one group against another.
	So, one group is anti-cop, right?
	And explicitly so, right?
	So, it's like, okay, but let's assume, like, this is how we know that fifth-generation warfare is going on, right?
	Because who would care if he was team cops?
	Who cares?
	What difference does it make?
	You go about your daily life, what difference does it make?
	Well, it only matters if something happens because you're on Team Cops, right?
	And that's the problem.
	The politicization of society, again, not involving the state.
	It's involving ideological groups of actors who view each other as mortal adversaries.
	It's good for him to also point out that this is new, that he's never had to do this before, you know, this soul-searching.
	There is a new thing that's being done to him.
	Exactly.
	All of this stuff is new, it's being introduced in society, and it shows a demonstrable lack of tolerance.
	How could a black man be a police officer?
	The same way a black man can be a firefighter.
	What are you talking about?
	Yeah, exactly.
	Why are you even bringing that up?
	The same way the white person does it.
	join the police force get trained start get a uniform do the job get paid retire hopefully unless you're was it david dawn so you know so it's just like you know black lives matter come knocking so you know but anyway i mean like you know isn't everyone team cops when a murderer is on the loose uh no no apparently not you remember the anti-file murderer vice were on team good point that's a yeah that's a good example of Very good example.
	And so the point of this kind of ideological warfare is done through narratives and social stigma and incitement.
	And so I think the best example of this is the fact that the word Nazi is no longer strong enough.
	Nazi now doesn't have the impact that it had, and Loretta Ross, a woman and gender studies professor from Massachusetts, had wrote that the...
	I don't know, in some...
	I can't remember what it was, Counterpunch or something she'd written this, wrote that the post-World War II Nazis faced Nuremberg trials in order to send a warning to the world and those who managed to escape justice essentially became non-entities.
	The term Nazi is not even strong enough to convey the opprobrium and disgust human rights activists feel for those who brazenly claim they are simply patriots with different opinions.
	Like imagine, I'm a patriot with different opinions.
	God, I hate you more than anything.
	You're worse than a Nazi.
	These people aren't saying we need to genocide anyone.
	From the White House to the Congress to the streets, they declared war on democracy.
	They are seditionists, co-conspirators, and neo-Nazis hiding in plain sight who choose to use whatever power platforms and microphones they have to overturn this system of government.
	Their apparent goal is an apartheid-like system in which an embattled minority of people rule over millions of those who oppose them.
	What are you talking about?
	A, that seems to be what Joe Biden's going for.
	But B, why is this in your mind?
	And then you commit this to digital paper and put it out on the internet for everyone to read.
	And it's like, okay, so what more do you want to do to stigmatize?
	She's not saying that the white nationalists in Atomwaffen, for example, want an apartheid state.
	She's saying patriots with different opinions.
	MAGA supporters.
	So MAGA. It's code for MAGA. So she's saying the MAGA people want an apartheid state where blacks are.
	Well, why didn't they do it for the last four years?
	What were they doing?
	They're too busy.
	Why are they a part of the Republican Party, not the Democrat Party, if they won apartheid?
	I mean, just, sorry.
	Why?
	Why?
	That's the reason they weren't able to do it.
	They're in the wrong party.
	Exactly.
	These versions of MAGA supporters she believes exist are just, they're outnumbered.
	But again, notice how, I mean, you couldn't get a more strident social attack on another group of people.
	You couldn't get less charity.
	You couldn't get less interest in dealing with them as your fellow Americans.
	This is my fellow enemies, the armed camp over there, the armed barbarians who are within the walls and who we actually turn out to live with for our entire lives.
	These statements and the attitude they have towards them Is as negative as can be.
	I mean, again, Nazi isn't strong enough.
	It's like when David Lammy called Jacob Rees-Mogg, you know, Nazi isn't strong enough.
	It's like, we don't have a worse word.
	Pedophile?
	That's not political.
	Well, it wasn't political.
	Until the left politicized everything.
	But like, you know, Nazi is a political term to describe people with political opinions that are evil, right?
	That are just genocidal, imperialistic, totalitarian, tyrannical, you know.
	And don't go wrong, I agree.
	You hate socialists?
	Yeah, I hate socialists too.
	I totally agree.
	Socialism bad, right?
	You got me.
	But like, when that's not bad enough, What do you have next?
	I guess you've got Trump supporters, right?
	But anyway, so let's go on to, let's continue.
	A real open window into our life.
	Like, American individualism is worse than genocidal socialism.
	Okay.
	Why is it that the foreigners don't agree?
	If the rates of immigration are anything to go by, it seems to be highly desirable, and the socialist genocides seem to be the things they're fleeing, which explains Donald Trump's, you know, veneration in the Cuban community.
	Yeah, while the Cubans got tack-feared into the white race.
	Yeah.
	Anyway, so the Cubans, worse than Nazis.
	But anyway, we'll carry on with our fifth generational warfare, because again, we can see this everywhere.
	And it's all of these cultural attacks designed to destroy the legitimacy of the opponent's position, again, without firing a shot.
	Rachel Levine, the new health, where is it, Secretary of Health?
	The clearly sane person.
	She's an assistant to Biden or assistant to the health department or something like that.
	That's it.
	But she's clearly going to be very influential in this part.
	Has said that a Republican lawmaker who shed a meme has placed thousands of LGBT plus people at risk.
	To date, no memes have ever killed anyone, but that's not really what she's talking about.
	Could always be the first.
	She could always be the first.
	But what she's talking about is something that they have termed stochastic terrorism, which otherwise known as lone wolf terrorism.
	But stochastic terrorism is a concept that puts it...
	Into a sort of tapestry of a larger social movement, right?
	So the term, as Wikipedia tells us, used to suggest that there is a quantifiable relationship that may exist between seemingly random acts of terror and their intended goal of perpetuating a reign of fear via a manipulation of mass media and its capacity for instant global news communication, which makes it sound like the left has been committing stochastic terror against every person they've deplatformed.
	Yes.
	So, good news.
	True statement.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I mean, that's...
	Like, there's a reason we call them social terrorists.
	Yeah.
	Because they are.
	Exactly.
	But again, this is a part of fifth-generational warfare.
	This is one of the methods by which fifth-generational warfare can take place.
	I agree.
	I'm just really hating all these extra terms.
	Yeah, me too.
	Like, in the mean world, these terms of, you know, culture war, fifth-generational warfare, you know, scotastic terrorism, just social terrorists or lone-war terrorists.
	Yeah, stochastic.
	Yeah.
	I mean, that's the thing.
	There are meme terms that apply to all of these things.
	Just hate academics.
	Yeah, they have to, you know, try and intellectualize things.
	But, I mean, these are not untrue things that they're saying.
	It's good that they've catched up with the meme lords.
	Yeah, it is.
	It is.
	But the point is, by their own terms now, well, you guys are a bunch of terrorists waging a war.
	And, I mean, this came about because of this tweet from...
	What was his name?
	Sorry.
	Brian Levine, is it?
	Brian Sims, sorry.
	Oh, no, no, no, no, it's Jeff Pyle.
	Right, so Jeff Pyle, if we can scroll down just a little bit so we can see his tweet.
	American citizens express optimism and renewed hope as Benjamin Franklin joins Joe Biden's cabinet.
	I mean, that's genuinely funny.
	That's a good joke.
	Yeah.
	Like, if that's terrorism, then, I mean, we're all in trouble.
	So the reply, though, was from Brian Sims, a Pennsylvanian.
	I can't remember what he does, but he's someone important.
	Co-chair of the LGBTQ Equality Caucus.
	Oh yeah, that was it.
	Very important position.
	I'm sure he's got another one that's more important.
	Yeah, I'm sure he does.
	But he has conferred with his colleagues, member of the caucus and the Democratic leadership, and all in agreement that this is discriminatory and dangerous behaviour by Pyle.
	By attacking Secretary Levine in this way, Pyle has perpetuated both transphobia and discrimination against the LGBT community, which have among the highest rates of civil rights violation and discrimination in the nation, often with deadly consequences.
	Pyle has brought the House of Representatives into dishonour and disrepute, good sir.
	Until these actions are addressed, he continues to place her and hundreds of thousands of LGBTQ plus people in the Commonwealth at further risk to discrimination to attack.
	This lunacy is built on the idea of stochastic terrorism.
	I mean, I doubt that there are tens of thousands of LGBTQ plus people in Pennsylvania, to be honest with you.
	The numbers are being inflated, but it doesn't really matter.
	What matters is...
	LGBTQ +, including literally everyone.
	Literally everyone.
	But the point is, this lunacy is built on the idea of stochastic terrorism because merely mocking the group is apparently a form of fifth-generational warfare, in their view.
	But if she was a Republican, that trans woman there, this would not be a form of terrorism.
	These people would not bring it up.
	No, but that's because it's part of fifth-generational warfare.
	It's their team versus our team, and their team bad, our team good.
	It's okay when we do it, it's bad when you do it.
	Any questions?
	I mean, they view her as part of a collective, whereas in the Republican side, they would view her as a person.
	Yeah, just an individual political actor.
	If you're a politician, you're up for being mean.
	No, she's part of the collective of LGBTQ +, and whatever the hell else that means.
	Yeah, she's part of the team.
	And it's in this context that I think it's worth talking about, the anti-LGBT church in California that was bombed recently.
	This seems to be, again...
	So anti-LGBT. Yes, anti-LGBT. Now, I don't know much about this church, but Josh was looking into this, and he's going to have an article about this on lowtocees.com.
	Hopefully later today.
	Because apparently the church itself is pretty extreme.
	So I'm not saying, you know, I'm not going to be defending the views of this church.
	Apparently they've said things like gay people should be killed and, you know, essentially the same sort of position as ISIS when it comes to theologically.
	Westboro Baptist Church.
	Westboro Baptist Church.
	Really, really extreme.
	They're called the First Works Baptist Church.
	And again, before this, I'd never heard of them.
	But this is what I mean by the sort of years of lead.
	So now it's going to be left.
	I mean, this is bound to be left-wing terrorism.
	We don't know who did it yet, but given who the target was, I'm guessing it wasn't...
	I don't think Richard Spencer's bombing the anti-LGBT church.
	Right, exactly.
	But if you're an anti-LGBT church in California...
	You're getting bombed by Antifa.
	Exactly.
	So that's probably who it is.
	But there have been the recent target of protests and graffiti, and this seems to be part of a pattern of escalation that has now resulted in them being bombed, IRA-style.
	And yeah, so this is what I mean by the sort of years of lead, and it's part of this idea of fifth-generation warfare, and it seems that the Southern Poverty Law Center may have been responsible for stochastic terrorism against them.
	In which the Southern Poverty Law Centre had previously essentially put a marker on them, put a target on them, by doing their reports classifying the church as a hate group that promote anti-LGBT plus sentiments, and therefore this makes them the target of protests, death threats, petitions from a group called Keep El Monte Friendly, That's what they call themselves.
	Bombs in the name of tolerance.
	Yes.
	This is a friendship bomb.
	You weren't being tolerant enough.
	And this is really what's happening.
	I mean, I'm not making it up.
	If I made it up, it would sound ridiculous.
	I mean, it does.
	It sounds like a sketch.
	Yeah, it does, right?
	The Keep El Monte Friendly group, of course, have disavowed bombing things.
	For now.
	For now, yeah, yeah.
	They've said our movement was intended to bring light and awareness to the hateful rhetoric taught by this group.
	We understand that what they preach can make people upset.
	However, we would never promote, encourage, or condemn acts of violence or harm.
	Well, hang on.
	You said that they did send death threats.
	Not them themselves.
	Death threats were sent to the First Baptist Church.
	I thought they were basically saying, you know, we disavow bombs, but death threats are all right.
	Send them.
	Just don't carry them out.
	Yeah, no, no.
	We don't know the death threats came from them, nor do we know that the graffiti came from them, but they were protesting, and I mean...
	I agree with their right to protest, obviously.
	Sure.
	Of course they've got a right to protest.
	Bombing death threats and destroying property.
	But all of this follows from the Southern Poverty Law Center's designation of them.
	Yeah.
	I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they don't bring this on themselves by saying, hey, maybe gay people should be killed, which is obviously something we don't agree with.
	But the point is, this is the fifth generational warfare, and this appears to be an example of stochastic terrorism, where it's this general environment where this particular group has been persecuted.
	They've been actively demonized by wider society, and then individuals from within society itself, presumably, have taken it upon themselves to take action in the form of terrorism against this group.
	Unacceptable either way that it's done.
	But you'll notice the fact that it was made by the Southern Poverty Law Center, and Southern Poverty Law Center are not credible people.
	No, no, no.
	All sorts of hate groups that just aren't.
	They just make it up.
	I mean, don't get me wrong.
	If we're going to define anything as a hate group, then sure, this church probably does come into that category.
	But so do the Keep El Monte Friendly group come into that category as well.
	Yeah.
	But the point here I was trying to make was, if they're able to do this against, you know, let's just...
	I don't even know what the correct term is for such people.
	Homophobic?
	Let's just use that.
	That's probably correct.
	If they're able to say this homophobic group is a hate group, and therefore people will go out and do these things, well, why can they not do it to MAGA? You know, at what point?
	Why can't they do it to Lindsey Graham?
	Lindsey Graham is opposed to abortion.
	Well, they've done it to Tucker Carlson when they turned up at his house.
	And you know, where does that line actually drop?
	And it doesn't.
	Which is why I've seen some people try and set up groups for the same thing on the left, and I'm also not really in favour of it, because where's the line?
	Anyway, so carrying on very quickly to wrap up.
	Parler was, of course, the victim of this kind of fifth-generational warfare.
	This was an interview that Amy Peekoff, the...
	What position did she hold again?
	I think it was public relations or something like that.
	Something like that.
	I think it was something else.
	But yeah, she's been doing the public relations for Parlour.
	And she went and took Carlson's show and explained that, look, it wasn't just that Amazon had deplatformed us.
	Because that actually wouldn't be a problem.
	They're not the only game in town.
	The problem is that every other game in town, we're like, oh, Jesus, you know, if Amazon's done that, we're not going to touch you.
	And not just front-end things either.
	It was all sort of back-end services that normal people would use for normal things.
	If we continue to do business with you, Amazon might cast off.
	Exactly.
	So we're going to have to conform.
	Exactly.
	So the Eye of Sauron was turned on parlor, and everything around just fled and retreated.
	And this being the sort of highest form of fifth-generational warfare, when you can literally destroy your opponents by just looking at them...
	Then you've got this terrifyingly powerful ability.
	And it's no surprise there are left-wingers who are like, I can't believe I've just been deplatformed.
	I can't believe I've just been cancelled.
	Yeah, well, welcome to the club.
	That's what happens.
	Now you're a Trump voter.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Welcome to the X for Trump group.
	Antifa for Trump.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Like practically, you know, sort of like Ghazi Kozo, black Hitler, you know, black nationalist types.
	A bunch of them, I really think, are very close to being Trump supporters at this point.
	Like Tariq Nasheed, Ghazi Kozo, all those sort of things.
	They hate Antifa.
	They're like, they're white racists.
	It's like, yeah, you know, black supremacists for Trump.
	It's only a matter of time.
	But anyway, like I said, Parler is working on returning, but of course this has been difficult.
	This kind of cancellation previously happened to Gab, so none of the infrastructure is safe.
	So if you are conservatives, try and make sure you work from the ground up.
	Make sure it's things they can't just deny service for, and you should be fine.
	That seems to be the only option at this point, if we're into this open social war between two factions who have no mercy.
	I mean, well, I say the two factions have no mercy.
	I don't know what MAGA people have cancelled Democrats or left-leaning things.
	I'm not actually familiar with any examples.
	I mean, that New York Times editor, maybe.
	Was that MAGA doing it?
	I mean, people were upset that she was being partisan.
	I think the New York Times did it because they also were trying to cover their ass.
	Sure, but it wasn't MAGA saying, fire that woman, was it?
	No.
	I mean, you saw some MAGA people were upset, but I can't think of...
	Well, being a hypocrite, yeah.
	What's an exact...
	Because that's not even the same to the extent the leftists will do it.
	We're not going to say that MAGA was influencing the New York Times to fire one of their journos, right?
	Not the...
	Because that's certainly not going to be...
	But also they wouldn't give a shit.
	Exactly.
	MAGA are upset.
	They don't read our paper.
	Who cares?
	We hate MAGA. We're trying to currently frame them as a terrorist group.
	We're not taking orders from them.
	You know, that's...
	But take, you know, the man who shall not be named, TR. Like, is there anyone on the left who's been treated like that?
	No.
	And incidentally, talking about Voldemort...
	Sorry, next one, please, John.
	He posted this recently to Gab, and I posted it as well, that Voldemort was just deplatformed by his bank, which was HSBC. And they've just said, sorry, we're not going to do business with you anymore.
	We're closing your account.
	You've got 65 days to take your money out.
	And, you know, get stuffed.
	So, right, okay, that's terrifying.
	So now we have the full-on ethical agenda, the sort of, essentially the sort of fascistization of social society and economic life being taken over.
	So everything now has an ethical agenda, which is why the conservatives are going to have to figure out something on their end.
	Otherwise, the left is just going to ruin them.
	And the final thing I want to talk about in the idea of fifth generational warfare was the power of it, because the right-wingers have been condemning what they have been calling, and we have done this many times ourselves, the genocide of the Uyghur Muslims by China, by the Communist Party of China.
	And finally, after even, you know, the Trump administration who condemned it as a genocide, finally, Owen Jones, on the 21st of January 2021, over a year after we learned about all of this, is like, you know what?
	We probably should condemn this genocide.
	This is a year after we got the video footage.
	Yep.
	Like, people have known about this for years upon years.
	There have been loads of activists who have come out and said, look, I was persecuted, blah, blah.
	And finally, Owen Jones is like, you know what?
	This is so bad that even though the right wing is opposing it, we're going to have to oppose it as well.
	They only took a genocide.
	But that's the point, isn't it?
	That's the power of this kind of social stigma and social war, right?
	Because, oh, the right-wingers are saying genocide's bad.
	Well, we're just going to keep quiet on that for a year.
	And then after it's like, oh, God, it's starting to look bad that we're actually not saying anything about this genocide and we actually kind of look like we're on China's side.
	I mean, they are communists and he's a communist too, so maybe he is.
	But no, joking aside, Owen Jones finally has to condemn this.
	And so that's the problem with this sort of thing, right?
	Like, right and wrong were questions that obviously were jettisoned a long time ago.
	If do we condemn the genocide, well, what do the right wing say about it?
	It's like, I don't know.
	I mean, I haven't asked them.
	I'm asking you.
	You know, why are you asking what they think?
	If everything you do is relative to everything they do, then you have no particular principles of your own.
	And that explains why I'm enjoying literally flip-flops and everything.
	Should we be against pedophilia?
	Well, what are the rights' opinion on it?
	They're against it.
	Well, that's the thing.
	That's exactly the point.
	So yeah, this sort of fifth-generation warfare is here to stay, I imagine.
	We've been fighting it for quite a long time, and I don't think it's going away.
	There doesn't seem to be any mercy coming from the left in the institutions that they control as they actively perpetrate this war and prosecute the war.
	And it looks like they'll literally get up to the point of genocide denial before they'll be like, okay, maybe there are some things more important than our partisan divide.
	Yeah.
	We'll cut it there if you want to take some time to get the super chats up because I wanted to say something about it.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Go for it.
	So one of the interesting things is I was looking back at the history of TR and the way he was deplatformed because you saw it there by his bank going.
	All of this is based on a lie.
	This is a lie that Facebook told to the BBC where they said he had made a post calling for the beheading of Muslims.
	a post which they then admitted does not exist he's still banned i still bad quote quote uh a danish facebook representative it was there is no singular post it was no single post then why did you say a post yes because you're a liar that's why why don't we have any evidence of the post calling for the beheading of the followers of mohammed and not only everywhere you know he's still banned from facebook he's still banned from youtube or quarantine basically banned he's banned from those uh those bank accounts not on the basis of anything new he's done it's based on that lie they just made up
	yeah it's just not true It's just actually a lie.
	And there's no justice.
	There's no one he can appeal to.
	None of them are interested in listening to him.
	None of them care about the evidence.
	Facebook have just made up a lie and destroyed Tommy's economic process.
	They say it's a lie.
	Yeah, they have admitted.
	If that's the case, you know, we saw what happened with Donald Trump.
	They just made up the lie that he incited violence when the exact opposite was happening.
	No one's safe.
	No one is safe.
	You know, Michael Gove, let's just make up a line now and just say he, I don't know, rapes women in his spare time.
	And then we'll just tell the BBC that's what happened and then they'll ban him off everything.
	Could you imagine?
	And that's perfectly fine.
	That's what has happened.
	That is where we are.
	That's the level of tolerance we're at.
	The eye of Sauron is suddenly looking at you.
	Anyway, let's go to the video comments.
	Yeah, I believe we have two.
	Sorry, what was the name of the first video comment?
	Do we have names?
	Xander Miller.
	Okay.
	Yesterday, you said the SJWs have won.
	I don't think it's that simple.
	More accurately, there is an alliance of convenience of the enemies of classical liberalism.
	They are the neoliberal globalist technocrats that make up the elite of the Democratic Party, like Joe Biden and Pelosi.
	They are the critical theory cultists who are gaining power by enshrining their evil philosophy as the religion of institutions and the state.
	There's China playing the long game, trying to restore its ancient status as the middle kingdom and center of the known world.
	There's also Islam, which is not currently so much of a driving force, but is nonetheless trying to ride the winds of chaos to achieve global dominance.
	All these different forces are currently allied against the common enemy, but once the western republics and dominions fall, these allies of convenience will come into conflict over the spoils.
	Anti-fustile riots.
	Biden won't take BLM's calls.
	Stalwell is on the Homeland Security Committee.
	My question is simple.
	Who is whose useful idiot?
	Well, whoever wins is the person who gets to decide who the useful idiots were.
	But I do think that what we can't do is underestimate the persuasive power of social justice.
	Because when I say the SJWs have won...
	He's right that, you know, the Biden administration may well indeed march all of the SJWs into whatever camps they've prepared for them and do whatever it is that socialists do to those undesirables.
	He has passed executive orders bringing back critical race theory.
	Yes.
	So for the traditional SJWs, yes.
	He has not had a meeting with Black Lives Matter in the slightest.
	Yes.
	So certain types of people apparently are the useful agents.
	Yes.
	The distinction is between the political agents and the Activists promoting a philosophy.
	The philosophy will live on.
	The philosophy will be adopted by these political agents like Biden.
	The philosophy is now law.
	Exactly.
	We have seen.
	The philosophy will survive.
	So the SJWs have won, even if it isn't an SJW in a position of power.
	But the problem I have is I don't want social justice being the ideology through which decisions are made.
	This is the problem.
	So yeah, the useful idiots will be put against the wall, but their useful idiot ideology will take over the Biden administration, as we've already seen that it has.
	And Blair is a perfect example of what's probably to come, in my view.
	I agree.
	Which is that...
	In fact, Biden seems like Blair on steroids.
	Yeah, SJW ideology became law.
	You have to sign up to a charter of racial equity and equality and blah, blah, blah.
	And it is still carrying on under conservative government for 20-odd years or whatever.
	We've had them now.
	And he still put all the hard left socialists up against the wall in his party.
	They were all gone.
	But it didn't really matter because the ideology has been law for 20 years.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Now we suffer under the hate speech laws and all this other stuff.
	Which conservatives do nothing about.
	Well, they may be...
	I'll believe it when I say it.
	They've spoken the right words, which is a step in the right direction.
	I'm not defending conservatives anymore.
	Anyway, we have another comment by Risha Jackson.
	Hey guys, so in the 20th century, after the death of God and the enlightenment principles began to arise, you saw utopianism begin to take shape in the form of Marxism and communism.
	Now, eventually one of two things tended to happen with these movements.
	Either one, They ate themselves from within like you saw with Stalin and Soviet Russia because they're not moral agents and they apply their communist tactics on themselves to stay in power OR the right begins to engage in like kind with these communists like you saw with Hitler and Weimar Germany.
	Now, my question is, which do you think will happen in today's day and age and what can we do to prevent people on the right from engaging in subversive communist behavior Sort of like you saw on the 6th, to the extent that the people there were actually on the right.
	I like where he was going with that.
	Shame that cough.
	I think I would contest the characterization of the Nazis being products of the right.
	I don't think they were.
	They were products of the left.
	Hitler was quite explicit about having to deal with Marxists all the time, wanting to reclaim real socialism.
	Real socialism is socialising people, not property.
	All this sort of thing.
	I don't agree that Hitler was a man of the right.
	There's also the issue of the beefsteak Nazis.
	You should Google that in your own time.
	Yes, you should.
	It is the fact that when the Nazis were just about to come to power, massive amounts of the Communist Party were just massively defecting.
	Huge amounts of the SA were just communists in brown uniforms.
	So the joke was they are beefsteaks.
	They're brown on the outside, red on the inside.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I don't agree that – because when we say the right, what we're saying is English classical liberalism.
	That's what you're talking about with the right.
	You know, limited government, individualism, personal responsibility, things like that.
	Hitler didn't come from that tradition.
	And so I don't see why we would describe Hitler to that tradition.
	And so I'm not sure I'd take the characterization of that.
	But the question was still fair.
	And honestly, I don't know if I can really think of a good answer off the top of my head.
	This sort of thing that I think requires a bit of deeper, some deeper thought, you know, what can we do?
	What, to stop people engaging in...
	Terrorism.
	Yeah.
	I mean, I don't want to see terrorism.
	But the thing is, the left has to come to the table and talk.
	They have to accept the moral claims that are made by the people they're calling Nazis.
	Because these people aren't Nazis.
	They also need to stop engaging in terrorism.
	They also need to stop engaging in terrorism and stop persecuting people.
	But, I mean, I think that, frankly, it's all out of our hands at this point.
	I think that this is why I'm like...
	We're in the years of lead.
	This is end of the Republic stuff.
	We are...
	I think we're on a particular...
	You're on a death slide now.
	You started going down it.
	You have the choice not to go down it, but now you're going down it.
	You can't stop halfway and turn around.
	You probably have to just carry on going straight to the bottom before you can get off.
	Anyway, let's go through some Super Chats.
	Liberty Prime.
	America will never fall to communist invasion.
	No, but it will fall to communist subversion.
	Patriots...
	Sorry, can you get down a little bit, John?
	What?
	Is that not the right date?
	No, that's the wrong date.
	Yeah, good point.
	Yeah, okay, fair enough.
	Mute stream.
	I wonder what would make the most sense, making sure someone doesn't off Chao Biden or whom to pair Carl with in a fanfic Carlum, Josh Hugo, John Vick.
	Can we stop you sending super chats?
	They're getting increasingly strange.
	Mike Keo says, geez, how much is it going to cost me to get that Mike lead sorted?
	What?
	I don't know what the reference is to.
	No, I don't know what the reference is to.
	Sorry, mate.
	MuteStream for the weekly Get Callum Glasses Fund.
	Thank you.
	It will be added to his Get Callum English Lessons Fund.
	Liberty Prime says, Communism is a temporary setback on the road to freedom.
	Embrace democracy or you will be eradicated.
	Correct.
	Lemon Kane says, They have no clue what they signed up for by voting Sniffy and the Beat Cop, do they?
	Caveat, emptor, my friends.
	We warned them, but they didn't listen.
	That's correct.
	It's unfortunate to see.
	It's just Orange Man Bad.
	That's all these people had in their minds.
	Yeah.
	You get what you deserve, though.
	I've got no sympathy.
	Trizzle.
	Carl, you and LLV, I assume that's Louis Levi, condemned traps.
	Correct.
	What positive alternative do you propose for gay bottoms without a traditionally masculine bone in their body?
	What?
	Why do I have to have an alternative?
	Why can't I just sit here and condemn in peace like a normal person?
	I don't know.
	Going to the gym?
	Getting a traditionally masculine bone in your body?
	I don't know.
	Like, if you're gay, I don't know why you have to dress up as a woman.
	If you proclaim that being a Chad is the only valid masculinity, you will end up pushing healthy but insecure people leftward into being trans.
	I don't think that Chad, you know, that's a term for alpha, right?
	Like, most men aren't alpha men, obviously, but most men still were able to be masculine and have wives.
	So, you know...
	It is possible to be a gay feminine man without being transgender.
	Like, that is an option.
	But...
	In fact, that's actually one of the...
	I mean, Krizzle's raising a fair point here because that's one of the fertile recruiting grounds for the transgender lobby, for the transgender activists, is effeminate men who are confused about themselves.
	And I'm not saying that's an illegitimate constituency to be concerned about either.
	But I think...
	It is a scale.
	Masculinity as expressed by people and felt by people is a scale.
	And I'm not saying you have to be uber-mega-alpha-chad.
	You just should probably try and be a bit more wholesome and traditionally masculine where the options present themselves.
	That's what I would recommend.
	The Engaged Few.
	Did you hear about a new product called JoeY?
	Or I spoke Joey.
	It's a water-based lube made from the tears of Biden supporters.
	Made in New Mexico to replace the jobs of Lost Biden fracking ban.
	But new plant will be open in Pennsylvania soon.
	Well, I had not heard about this clearly lucrative business opportunity, so I may well have to invest.
	I wonder how much it is a gallon.
	Can't be too expensive.
	Greetings from Canada.
	Make use of my socialism dollars before comrade PM blackface Trudeau Castro uses it for the great reset.
	I love all sports.
	But I mean, hang on, hang on.
	Where was the inaccurate description?
	That's the thing.
	But imagine, this is the thing.
	We did a segment talking about Joe Biden's transgenderism.
	I really wanted to rename it Joe Biden Promotes Rape because that's the outcome you're getting.
	And imagine being that partisan like CNN is.
	Like, that's what you should be writing about, Justin Trudeau.
	It is.
	Comrade PM blackface Trudeau Castro calls for such and such.
	Anyway, sorry.
	I mean, he does.
	Who at the Lotus Eders is closest to speaking the Queen's Hinglish?
	Uh...
	Probably you.
	Josh?
	Ah, Josh actually.
	Let's hang it on Josh.
	Norwegian money to our British heroes.
	Thank you very much.
	History is in the making, always is, but how do you think these last 10 years will be looked down 15 years from now?
	A period of radicalization, I guess.
	Yeah, I mean...
	2010 or not.
	I think it's going to be like the Weimar years.
	I mean, this is the thing, though.
	It's hard to judge because you don't know what the future circumstance is going to be.
	I mean, I was watching...
	What was it?
	A Kate Bush music video, like, this morning.
	Because I've had a YouTube autoplay going through it.
	For some reason, they put this in the autoplay list.
	And I was watching the video, and I was looking at it like it was from another world, man.
	It was just, you know, 30 years ago now.
	And it was like...
	You know, within my lifetime, and this...
	I couldn't make head nor tails of it.
	I couldn't understand what the meaning of the video was meant to be, but it seems to me like very sort of white Anglo-Saxon Protestant culture, right?
	And this kind of unrestrained femininity, like traditional femininity.
	And I'm looking at it and it's like, this is just really weird.
	Because you don't get anything like that now.
	And so in 10 or 15 years time, who knows how things will have changed?
	And who knows how things will be looked back on?
	So, yeah, I can't say.
	I wouldn't dare to venture a thing.
	You think Biden voters will learn their lesson or are they beyond stupid and won't learn anything?
	Well, some of them, like the ones who are like, wait a minute, the media lied to me.
	Biden lied to me.
	Yes, yes.
	Go and explain.
	Yes, that's what we've been complaining about.
	The media and Biden are a bunch of liars.
	Well, that's kind of the cringe thing.
	Biden didn't lie.
	He literally told you, I'm going to stab you in the back.
	You got stabbed in the back and you're like, wait, what?
	Sorry, mate.
	But he did also say, I'm not going to stab you in the back.
	I suppose if he says both things, then...
	Take him on the one that you think sounds the best.
	Yeah, some of them, yes.
	Some of them, clearly not.
	Most of them, clearly not, though.
	Be well, friend.
	Enhance your clam and have joy-joy feelings.
	Otherwise, you may be fined one credit under the verbal morality statute.
	Demolition Man reference.
	Yeah, I get the reference.
	Oh, enhance your...
	I remember the clam now, yeah.
	I forgot what the clams were.
	I think he means enhance your calm.
	I think he misspelled that.
	I'm not religious, but I can't help notice this new age of unpersoning people and their finances is reminiscent to the biblical Mark of the Beast.
	Yeah, it is, isn't it?
	A performance of I Vow to Thee My Country is now on my locals page.
	Mr.
	Winter's essay.
	Laptop died, but I persevere to have my next essay up soon.
	Get a bucket and mop for this wet and gushy.
	And it stops.
	Thank God.
	I have no idea what to say.
	Before we get a Cardi B recitation.
	But yeah, so that's another thing, right?
	The Kate Bush thing.
	Like, if you compare it to Cardi B, right?
	If it's like, this is where womanhood and femininity is now.
	Like, I mean, I don't know if it's an improvement.
	See, I saw some people trying to defend...
	Can I even say the words wet-ass?
	No, probably not.
	Yeah, so comparing it to old ranchy songs from the 50s or whatever, and I found one of them, it was called Ding-a-ling, so it's like, you know, my ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, you know the song.
	But the weird thing is, looking back at that, it's a bit of a wink of a nod in the song, where it's like, this is a bit wrong, isn't it?
	Aren't we being naughty and subversive?
	Yeah, well, it ends up with Cardi B. But with WAP, there is no naughty and subversive element.
	It's actually...
	There's no wink and nod, isn't this funny?
	It's just on the table.
	On the table, yeah.
	It's kind of gross.
	But anyway...
	First day of being on the rower during podcast.
	What do you think the long-term effects of US trade tariffs would be in the UK? A big threat from Biden.
	Yeah, Biden's going to screw us.
	He wants us to rejoin the European Union.
	For reasons no good ones.
	Well, it's because the European Union is a kind of administrative state, and it's what Biden recognises as being legitimate.
	This is the way that he views the world.
	Like...
	Trump is the decentralist.
	He views things from the bottom up.
	Biden views things from the top down.
	In the European Union, they view things from the top down.
	In the UK, we view things as being from the bottom up.
	And this is the major point of conflict.
	And this is why Biden naturally sides with the European Union.
	And because he keeps going, I'm Irish, I'm Irish, I hate Britain.
	Why would he side with us over Ireland?
	F in the chat for all those who missed out on GameStop stock when it was less than $3.
	It's now $90 plus.
	Is it?
	Good for GameStop.
	I didn't even know.
	Can you scroll up?
	I can't see.
	I find you and your team plus Tim Paul and his team inspirational and a good balance of information.
	Thank you.
	Thanks for doing the job you do.
	Me, I still got to finish my fantasy world that I'm building.
	Yes, you do.
	I look forward to it.
	UK lockdown has been extended to the 17th of July.
	This was done with...
	Oh, I didn't even know.
	Local.
	Right.
	So local councils are extending it because people weren't here, John.
	Yeah.
	And then the national one, they're extending until March.
	But they'll probably extend the national one as well.
	Yeah.
	I hate everything about it.
	This was done with no official announcement by the government.
	I'd post a link, but YouTube won't let me.
	So apparently it's a local thing, but the government will just naturally say it as well, I expect.
	Yeah, it sucks.
	This is why they're rioting in Holland.
	Yeah, quick question.
	Do you think the vaccine that's been distributed actually works?
	And let's hope for the better erections in the near future.
	Hashtag erection merch.
	Hashtag glasses fund.
	I'm sure it does.
	I don't know anything about the efficacy of the COVID vaccine, but I'm sure it does have some kind of preventative quality.
	I don't know, I think about vaccines.
	I just had a psychological lecture on critical debates, literally just feminism.
	Apparently, Ruth Gader...
	Ruth Gader...
	How do you say that?
	Bader Ginsburg.
	Bader Ginsburg, dying is a big loss for feminism.
	Yeah, probably is.
	Called her out on it, but ACB isn't a real woman because of Boer Trump.
	Yeah, because it's not women's rights or women being equal, it's feminism, which is something completely different.
	Well, it falls into the fifth generational warfare.
	It's a political faction that's operating in society, has claimed a constituency, and is attacking those outside of that constituency.
	Was it a mistake on Trump's part that he didn't call in the National Guard during the demonstration at the Capitol Hill, leaving it to Mike Pence to do it?
	I don't know what went on there.
	Do you?
	No, I think what he's talking about is there was a delay, right?
	So the National Guard in D.C. refused to go during the inauguration where there was the people storming the Senate.
	Like when it started out.
	Yeah, there was a delay there.
	I don't know, to be honest.
	I don't know whether I'd say it was a mistake or not.
	Probably.
	I don't have a good answer for that, I'm afraid.
	Okay.
	The previous comment, let's win us a cultural and scientific victory.
	Liberty is primed and non-negotiable.
	Absolutely right.
	The reason JB can exec like this is the legislature have long abdicated the responsibility of being the most powerful portion of governing to the president to deflect the ire of the peeps.
	Basically treating them as a dick PM. A dictator, yeah.
	This is something I think started under Bush, if I recall correctly.
	But the kind of war-making power that's centralizing the presidency, I think that's the Congress, is meant to have the ability to go to war.
	And so the president is actually fighting undeclared wars and things like this.
	What it is is a sort of centralization of power in the office of the presidency.
	Leaving the other branches and areas of the government to kind of wither on the vine.
	And this is the same sort of thing happened with Caesar in the Senate and Augustus leading into the Principate.
	The body still exists, but it becomes kind of a rubber stamping instrument to just authorize everything that the executive does.
	Yeah, and this is why it's like, look, you are genuinely looking at the end of the American Republic here.
	It won't be the end of America as a country or a society, but it will be the end of the Republic.
	The only uprising was Chuck Schumer, and he sure is excited about Trump.
	Yes, he is.
	Pelosi should up her simping for Trump, because Chuck is coming.
	Yep.
	Said it before, and I'll say it again.
	Would Biden be offed while the military is present?
	They would be perfect scapegoats as a Trump-loving military.
	Is it possible?
	Possible.
	I don't think they'll do it.
	You think Biden replaced Trump's Diet Coke button with one that drone strikes random people in Iraqi preschools?
	Wouldn't be surprised.
	What's the minimum lethality that a disease needs before it's considered deadly?
	Because the deadly novel coronavirus doesn't seem to be lethal.
	I think lethal just means it can kill you.
	I don't think there's a percentage amount of people who have to die before it becomes lethal.
	Well, I have no idea, but if the average age of death is 82...
	No, but he's just asking.
	Yeah, I know.
	The common cold isn't lethal because it doesn't seem to kill people.
	The only permanent construction job is in the California high-speed rail.
	Yeah, it is.
	Hunter Biden, Burisma must be really happy that their competition has been eliminated.
	Yeah.
	It's all weird how all this lines up, isn't it?
	In Biden's first 24 hours as president, he managed to piss off all Western Canada by killing the Keystone Pipeline project.
	Trudeau is jumping for joy.
	Yeah, but Ukraine are doing great.
	They're like, oh, you need gas?
	Well, that just happens to be what Hunter Biden was overseeing.
	Don't worry.
	Question.
	Is it possible that you could do an article slash video on the actual story of each of the people BLM claims were murdered by the police?
	I have thought about doing this, actually, in the same way we did the anti-far violence thing, which people should check out, and if you have information that needs to be included, send it to us.
	If I get time, yeah, essentially.
	Unions are surprised that Biden screwed them over after giving him an enormous stack of cash, but they should have given him two stacks of cash, like China did.
	Lesson learned, unions.
	Yeah, not enough.
	Get your vaccinations, because if you don't get your vaccine, then mine won't work.
	Democrats, probably.
	You missed one from Ryan Fisher.
	Geothermal comes from the decay of thorium and uranium in the Earth's core.
	Put that in a reactor and apparently it's no longer green energy.
	Yeah, I hate the ignorance surrounding nuclear energy.
	I'm no expert, but I can tell that this is a much better option than all of the alternatives.
	I can't wait until the green energy companies cancel the evil people who had the nerve to work in the petroleum industry or voted for Trump.
	Yeah, I don't know what's going to happen to them.
	They're not going to get these green industrial revolution jobs.
	It's not going to them.
	He is, after all, impeached forever.
	Yes, he is.
	Biden trying to do his best with all...
	Sorry.
	Biden trying to do his best with what he thought.
	If the whole corruption thing ends up false, this might be the actual excuse.
	I'm not sure I get that one.
	Sargon, I was quoting you with that last one.
	Oh, okay.
	You want to read this?
	Yeah, we'll do a couple more because we've gone past half past now.
	No, I've got things I need to do.
	Okay.
	Emperor Bidenus, the first of his name, glorious leader of the Great American Empire, did nothing wrong.
	2.0 says, thoughts on the Disney Star Wars official Twitter defending their openly racist showrunner while saying nothing in defense of Gina Carano.
	I haven't seen that, I'm afraid, so I don't have any thoughts, but I... I'm going to tell you that it's going to be the people who support left-wing philosophy are in the right, and the people who are not even in defense of the right are in the wrong.
	Zaranek says, It's only been five days.
	Give Biden a chance.
	Who cares that you managed to anger Canada?
	Give him a chance.
	Yeah, he can sell you out to all sorts of countries.
	Yeah.
	Nightmarish Visions.
	What would you say to all the people that just voted against Trump when they're confronted with Biden's remarkable underperformance as an explanation for his presidential win?
	I would just say, well, look, it's clear that there's absolutely no evidence of fraud whatsoever.
	Biden's super popular and you can tell because everyone is thrilled with how he's doing.
	Akromatops says, Trump is needed for the two minutes of hate.
	And KT says, If you haven't seen it, I would recommend looking at Legend of Korra, specifically Season 1.
	It deals with a lot of communist equality and dictators.
	Yeah, I have actually seen that.
	And Season 1 of Legend of Korra is not very good, but Amon is a great villain.
	He's part of the equalists, who wants to remove the special magical powers that all of the benders have, because that's not equal, is it?
	Anyway, thank you everyone for joining us today, and sorry for not getting to any chats that we missed.
	John's got one from Gareth Green, which is $49, thank you.
	My one poor comfort is that Muslims and people of colour will generally will eventually turn on the white secular leftists.
	SJWs are by definition a coalition of various unrelated groups will inevitably turn on each other.
	Turfs are in the beginning.
	That's absolutely true.
	The question is, how will the chips fall after the white supremacist capitalist patriarchy has been defeated?
	And the white supremacist capitalist patriarch-in-chief at the moment is going to let us know.
	But anyway, thanks for joining us, folks, and we will be back at the same time tomorrow.
