Time Text
*music* Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 1st of July 2022.
I'm joined by Harry.
Hello.
And today we're going to be talking about the fact that she's black, y'all, and less money, more problems, and the tragedy of the bodega guy.
Bodega bro.
Bodega bro, who's just having a tough time.
I still prefer the title The Ballad of Bodega Bro, because it really is a tragedy.
We'll see.
Worthy of song.
But anyway, just to start off, just an announcement being that 3.30, we'll be doing a live hangout on the website, so you can see there, Gatekeeping Works, which is obviously about the Space Marines, and the fact that they're 100% male, even according to Games Workshop now, so boo-hoo, feminists.
But anyway, so come and join us at 3.30, me and Carl will go through that.
Otherwise, we shall get into the fact that she's black, y'all.
So, she is indeed black, this being the diversity hire for the Supreme Court, of course, and the response has been, didn't you know she's black?
From all the Democrats.
I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.
They've not mentioned it at all.
No, I'm not sure what else she's got going on, other than the fact she's black, but we'll go through it.
I mean, they're just restating her qualifications over and over and over again.
The only qualifications.
And just to mention first, being a promo here, just the fact that the Origins of Intersectionality podcast that me and Cole did is, of course, very relevant to this, because why else do you have to hire her because she's a black and a woman?
And, well, that's it.
That's why.
It's because it's about intersectional doctrine, about removing the centre, as Kimberly puts it.
But otherwise, we should get into the news, of course, that she is black.
As you can see here from President Biden, who has announced that the candidates he picked, that the qualifications were being black and a woman, the one he picked was a black and a woman.
Fantastic.
I mean, yeah, he says you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone with better qualifications when the qualifications needed were black and woman.
I mean, she fits the profile.
Let's give it to him.
As I said the day she was confirmed, you'd be hard-pressed to find someone with better qualified for the job.
It really is just hilarious.
I mean, I do wonder, should we do the clap?
Just like...
Fantastic.
Good job.
Anyway, let's go to the next record.
Callum stopped clapping first.
And you can see here, Vox, I logged in this morning to check out, you know, what else they were putting up.
They had this headline, as you can see.
The US first black woman senator on what diversity hire brings to the Supreme Court.
What could it be?
What could it be?
She's black, y'all.
Of course, that is the only thing here.
If you go to the next link here...
She also has a history of activism.
Yeah, there should be another link in here, John, but if not, just go back and scroll down, because we can read the quote from the individual who decided to say, well, what hearings are to the Supreme Court, and in fact it is...
Well, quote, the fact that she is black, as you can see, if you click on that, John, we can load up the full thing there, says, I'm excited because the fact that we've never had a black woman, in brackets there, as if it's, you know, a stock thing that you can change.
As though it's just the automated text-to-speech voice.
We've never had a black woman.
Yes, as you can see on the Supreme Court.
As you know, in all these years since 1789, so she's the first of more than 100 Supreme Court justices.
She's breaking new ground.
So what is it that made her so valuable?
It was the fact that she's a black woman.
Okay, there you have it, from the first black senator to tell you why she's a black woman.
Well, it broke new ground.
They have those now, do you know?
They even have black women's Supreme Court justices now.
But if we go to the next one here, we can see Good Morning America had a different perspective on one list, as you can see, loading up here.
They decided to tweet out, a diversity hire is sworn in as the first black Supreme Court justice in U.S. history.
Not true.
Obviously.
I mean, duh.
We already can see Clarence Thomas.
I mean, the left in particular is paying a lot of attention to Clarence Thomas right now.
Yeah, not that they took any notice of that because Clarence Thomas ain't black.
As you can see, Andy Ngo mentioned the point.
I wonder why Clarence Thomas and the other justice whose name...
Birgit Marshall.
Yeah, don't count as black as well.
Interestingly, they couldn't even really argue, like they do with Clarence Thomas, that he's not politically black, because Thurgood Marshall was a Democrat and he was a civil rights lawyer as well, so it's like, politically speaking, he fits all the marks.
I know, remember, because of course, under critical race theory, civil rights was actually a bad thing, because it led to desegregation, whereas we should be segregated and the black people would be better off in America.
Yeah.
Trust us?
I mean, to be fair, there is an argument for that, it's just that the critical race theorists don't make that good argument for it.
They instead want their black ethno state, essentially, when it comes down to it.
Anyway, so we should move forward, so if we go to the next one, sorry, I just got these in the wrong order, so we'll have to go to the next one here.
You can see, well, it is Babylon's B prophecy coming true as well.
So if we click on the first one here, you've got the Babylon B prophecy that Clarence Thomas receives an invite to celebration of the first black Supreme Court justice, and then it happened.
Of course, as Good Morning America told us, which is that, indeed, if you go to the next photo here, that it is the first black Supreme Court justice in US history.
Clarence Thomas will be there to witness this historic moment in which a person with black skin gets the position, unlike him, presumably.
I hope we got the close-up of a single tear rolling down his cheek.
They broke new ground.
Yeah, so there's the diversity heist.
But if we go to the next one here, you can see that Good Morning America have corrected themselves, as they can see here.
Video shows the diversity heist one is the first black female Supreme Court justice in US history.
Much history.
Very good.
There we are.
It means it's even more deserving of praise.
Yes, and then we get the first, I don't know, black female trans Supreme Court justice, and then Clarence Thomas could just do that in a heartbeat.
I mean, we're going to end up getting narrower and narrower definitions and characteristics for all of this sort of stuff, so why not just get the ball rolling, Clarence?
I mean, go on.
I mean, it is the crevices of intersectionality, as I've called it before.
Once again, if Clarence Thomas does start to identify as a transgender woman, just for a laugh, does that mean they can't criticise him over repealing Roe v.
Wade anymore?
There was the joke that he should do it before she got appointed, and therefore she'd be the second, and therefore...
Oh, yeah.
Too bad.
Although, she would be the first biological female black woman, but, I mean, that's just not as impressive, is it?
No, not that that matters.
But this won't end, anyway, for anyone who is under delusion that, okay, once you've done the first, they won't bring it up again.
I remember when I was cutting a Labour Party conference, there was a guy who came up and said he was the first black male councillor in Islington in over three years.
In over three years.
They hold elections every four.
So, it was, yeah, they're just going to forever just be telling you that the first XYZ, it's never going to end.
But if you go to the next link here, we can see Nancy Pelosi's response, which was again to say she's black, but in less words, because she said to say, Supreme Court justice, diversity higher, and then history and progress, exclamation point.
Which comes off as really creepy to me.
I mean, why not just tweet the words history?
I mean, why not?
I mean, that is all you're doing this for.
You wanted a first black woman, and therefore you went out looking for black women, and then just appointed the first one you could find, presumably, which is kind of creepy as hell.
But also, why not just tweet black woman, exclamation point?
Did we...
Just wondering, I don't remember, did we show her reaction after Roe v.
Wade got appealed when she came out sulking to talk to the press?
Oh, Nancy.
I haven't seen that.
Have you not?
It's fantastic.
She just opens with, I won't say good day because it certainly isn't one.
Good morning, Sunday morning.
Let's go to the next one here, because then she's trying to follow us up a little bit here.
As Justice Diversity Hire takes her seat on the Supreme Court, our nation takes a historic step towards realizing our highest ideals, which is equality, apparently.
You know, like the Soviet Union.
Literally, diversity hiring is our highest ideals in the West now.
That's the best we can do, is picking someone because they're black and a woman.
I'm pretty sure the highest ideal of America, the US, as it was founded, was liberty.
Yeah.
Or, you know, the fact that...
You know, that thing that actually has to be destroyed if you want to be able to get equality because you have to enforce equality?
Well, you could argue in this, you know, specific circumstances the fact that the best comes to the top because we have so much freedom that the best people come to the top and the worst go to the bottom.
No.
Instead, we literally just have equality, which is...
Are you black and a woman?
I've got a job for you.
Being black and a woman.
That's literally the job description, apparently.
If you get the next one here, you can also see, well...
Pocahontas turned up to say this as well.
For the first time in American history, a black woman is serving on the United States Supreme Court.
Congratulations to Thirsty High.
It's great to see women of colour supporting each other.
Indeed.
Just the thing about all these posts from politicians, especially, you know, people of colour, like...
saying that, uh, don't you know we've got a black woman now?
It just reminds me of this scene from The Dictator.
I don't know if you've seen it.
I won't play it because we'll get in trouble with copyright.
But just, there's a scene of, uh, they get a guy to replace the dictator who's this humble guy who hurts goats.
And he's a moron.
So he just turns up at the UN and is just like, person?
Person?
Black person?
Like, that's really how they see the world.
It's just like, that's the only important thing.
That's...
See, it reminds me of the Ricky Gervais music video you showed me of Equality Street.
Yeah.
When the black guy's about to start rapping and Ricky just bursts in front of him.
Yeah.
We ain't racist.
Come on.
Me, the black guy?
That's literally the tactic.
That's all they've got.
When it's the police officer beating someone, but it's a Chinese police officer.
Hmm?
Yeah, and I mentioned it would be funny if someone just tweeted history with an exclamation point, but we're going to get as close as possible with Chuck Schumer.
So if you go to the next one here, you can see, there we are, Supreme Court, diversity hire, history, full stop.
Okay.
That really is all it is for you people.
It's so you can say in the future when you campaign ads be like, look, we're the party of progress, because look, history was made.
Look, black woman.
And me.
Look at that.
I mean, literally the Rick and Jermaine thing is what you're going to be doing in your all-future campaigning ads.
Well, you've got to get lots of photographs standing next to her while the cameras are still out, don't you?
I mean, these are all politicians, so it's all embarrassing and obviously, you know, importantly cringe that they're doing this, but someone who isn't important, but I still found it funny.
We've got the next one.
We have the page schmuck himself, who decided to come out and be like, Breaking Diversity Hire was just sworn in to be the first black woman on the Supreme Court.
Congratulations!
With all those exclamation points.
I'm sure you've seen that meme of just like, congratulations, congratulations, congratulations!
Yeah, I've seen the show that's from, yeah.
Oh, okay, I haven't seen the meme.
I mean, it's just ridiculous.
It's like, okay.
The scene it's from as well is the main character of the show is like in this blank void, sitting on a chair, depressed out of his mind, and everybody he knows who he's let down and is dead at that point, clapping, going, congratulations, Shinji!
The penguin comes out.
Quack, quack.
Yeah, pretty much.
Really, I mean, they are just like paid seals.
Well, he is, for one.
I mean, no.
For people who missed it.
This guy gets paid money to do this.
Literally just to type out the dumb S. Basically just congratulations to the fact that we have, as he says in caps, FIRST BLACK WOMAN on Supreme Court.
That's much work.
Although we have, um, I also love the idea that he's like, congratulations, like it's a race reveal party.
You know, like a gender reveal party.
You get off all the smoke.
It calls all kinds of mayhem.
But instead, it's just like, did you know?
Black!
Oh, congratulations!
Anyway.
But we have the first speech from the first black female Supreme Court Justice.
And we shall listen to her first speech, which is, of course, very important.
Let's play.
I'm Black, y'all.
And I'm black, y'all And I'm blacker than black And I'm black, y'all And I'm black, y'all And I'm black, y'all And I'm blacker than black And I'm black, y'all You certainly are You certainly are Another round of applause right there.
Yeah, that's very good, lady.
If you think I'm being overly mean for some reason and calling her the diversity hire and not saying her name, that's because she is, and she needs to live that down.
Because the fact that she even accepted the job, just on that basis, the fact that the elites in the United States came to her and said, we want a black woman, you're black and a woman.
And she went, I'll do it.
I'm sorry, you're deserving of scorn.
You're an embarrassment.
I can understand why, presumably, I don't know from a prestige or from a financial perspective, this is probably going to be very, very lucrative for her.
There is the element of, ooh, I am technically making history by accepting this post.
Are you a joke?
But, yeah, that's the thing.
I think there'll be a part of her soul that's a little bit deader because of it, because she knows that she's had...
Because one of the things that you don't notice, well, that you do notice from all of the posts that have been put, no mention to her track record.
No mention to her judicial history or any notable cases that she might have done.
No, it's just, you are black and female.
So for all we know, she's not even a particularly good judge.
And the only people who did mention her judicial history were the Republicans, who were saying, why were you so easy on these paedophiles?
Yeah, I mean, I went through just every response I could find, and every leftist response I read was literally just, she's black and a woman.
Black and a woman.
First black woman.
Black and a woman.
Oh, they have those now.
It's ridiculous.
She goes easy on pedophiles?
Oh, this is going to work out great for me.
And this isn't the first time either.
I've mentioned this before, but I will again.
It is entirely typical.
I mean, this still makes me laugh, looking back on it.
When Kamala Harris was announced as the VP candidate under Joe Biden, and the BBC ran this as a story.
This was a video that literally showed you the words female came up on a tick, and then black on a tick, and Asian American on a tick.
And then all those fact-checkers came out and said she never claimed she was black.
Fact-checking the BBC, actually.
Like, dude, I have the foes from the stories you ran.
It was pathetic, to say the least, but the box ticking is a real thing, and all the leftist outlets continue to do this, with the first black woman, of course.
We've got the next one here, we can see, there you are.
Some outlet, who cares?
It's just, yeah, first black woman Supreme Court justice.
I love, in a few months, they're probably going to claim she's not black as well.
Presumably.
She'll make some move within the Supreme Court that annoys enough people that they'll revoke her black card.
No longer one of us.
Her N-word pass will be revoked.
Now you can only say, nah.
You must join the knights that say me instead.
How long do we have Clarence Thomas?
Because if we have the rightist response, of course, they're more interested in her performance as a judge.
The fact she's a black woman gives a crap, to say the least.
And of course you see the Daily Wire putting the point here that a diversity hire couldn't even define a woman because she would have been in deep doo-doo if she said anything with the left.
Unless it's just that a woman is a woman.
You know, literal circular definition.
A woman is whoever says they're a woman.
Let's not actually answer the question there, either.
And then if we go on, of course, there is the nonce-defendership that you mentioned, which, yeah, we have our first nonce-defending Supreme Court justice.
It's kind of more important than the fact she's black and a woman.
Would have thought.
No?
Well, we don't want to diminish from her accomplishments because she is, let's be honest, she is black and she is a woman and we can't deny that.
That is an accomplishment.
That is very, very impressive of her.
She worked hard to get those qualifications.
As you can see, the individual here saying that the confirmation of the diversity hire sends three messages.
One, child porn is not a big deal.
Two, women are not unique nor valuable to society.
And three, 53 US senators are more scared of being called racist than they are interested in standing up for children.
Who are sexually abused.
Or for the reality that a woman is, you know, a physical woman, an adult human female, which they're not too interested either in standing up for.
But if you go to the next one here, you can see the fact one of these cuckolds is, of course, Mitt Romney.
I still can't...
Every single time something cooked comes from the Republican Party, you can be sure it's Romney.
Yeah.
Do you remember when he tried to be president for the Republicans?
Everyone stayed home.
That was a good laugh.
No one's voting for that.
No, why would you?
He's milk toast.
He's like a glass of milk.
It's worse than that.
He's blue milk.
Greg here saying, one year ago, Mitt Romney voted against the diversity hire's nomination.
And then, after all the revelations about her being, you know, leaning on child porn, Romney is now very, very proud to say that he will be voting to confirm the diversity hire at the Supreme Court.
Defending nonces, much Christianity.
Yeah.
Although, um, you might mention the point, which is, uh, how could they get the first Black Justice, you know, so wrong?
The fact that they, you know, Good Morning America, were like, hang on a second.
Whatever could you mean?
Might have been another one or two.
Well, I thought we'd just check in on the left's opinions of Clarence Thomas.
And to preface this, of course, we have to figure out what we're going to say.
So I'm going to preface this with a statement from Donald Trump, who decides to go full penguins of Madagascar for a minute, and says the N-word.
And we'll listen to him defining what the N-word is.
Mentioning the N-word.
You know what the N-word is, right?
You know what the N-word is?
The nuclear word.
Oh, I got a lot of...
There we go.
What did he just say?
Oh no, he's in trouble!
He's in trouble!
He said the N-word.
No, no, no.
It's a nuclear word.
So there we have it.
Now we're all clear.
Oh God, I miss Trump.
I disagree with him on some stuff, but God, he's funny.
Anyway, so we'll go into the leftist responses, which weren't pretty, to say the least, of Clarence Thomas, which he had his pass removed, and it was presumably handed over to all the white leftists for a day.
They deleted some of their tweets, as you can see this individual did.
I wonder why.
Let's check out.
Clarence Thomas really wants to own slaves and to be able to call black people nuclear in front of white people and laugh.
See-ass mother-effer.
Claymore-ass mother-effer.
Yeah, so if you go to the description of himself, this individual here, where's he from?
Just out of interest.
What's his background?
Anti-Nazi, anti-fascist.
Oh, but not anti-racist.
Ooh, we can tell from your tweets.
Certainly.
Presumably he's deleted that and added that now, but there we are.
There's the anti-fascists for you who are jumping out of the work work to say the nuclear word.
If we go to the next one, we have another individual who decided to go with just another dumbass field nuclear.
This guy pointing out that Malcolm X was definitely right about one thing, which is these guys.
Yeah, we're white liberals.
Yeah.
Yeah, if you go to the next one here, we then have someone else come out and say, doesn't the nuclear realize his rights are next?
When someone tells you who they are, believe them.
Certainly.
This lady here also didn't get the memo that she doesn't actually have that pass yet.
Gotta wait another couple of years, presumably.
If we go to the next one, we have another one as well.
This tweet is sickening.
Clarence Thomas is a dirty porch.
No.
And as a trans woman, I'm giving everyone permission to use the N-word on him.
Wait, what?
What?
Where's the logic there?
What?
I don't know.
I don't think there is any.
Trans women have N-word passes now.
I'm being informed.
She sits there with her little pride flag as well.
Callum, with that news, I've got some important news for you.
Yeah, it turns out I should be asking Rose of Dawn.
All of a sudden, I'm a woman.
Oh.
Can I have a hit?
There you go.
Cedric couldn't actually give me that from the gold tears, turns out.
He's not actually got one either, so I'm sure he's in trouble as well.
We've got the next one, we have Ethan Klein, who mysteriously hasn't said it, which...
But you know he desperately wants to...
Hmm, because you've got a tweet from him here.
Just look at this mother effer's face.
Just out of nowhere.
No one asked him to tweet this.
He just said tweet it.
In the middle of every one of his friends, presumably tweeting out what we just read out.
I mean, Ethan hasn't exactly been quiet about his use of that particular, the nuclear word, in the past.
We go to the next one, we can see more of it, in which he goes on to say that this guy is an obedient porn and criminal.
Where to begin with, this dead-eyed freak?
I mean, Ethan, like...
If you want to, nothing's stopped you before.
That's the thing.
If we go to the next one, we got the point from George, of course, which is, uh, go on, say it.
Do it.
Do it.
It's always been so natural.
I'm imagining, you know, Samuel L. Jackson's literally sat there going, come on, try to emphasize.
Do it.
I'm stopping you.
Nothing's ever stopped you before until, uh, well, I suppose you tried to throw, uh, what is it, iDubbbz under the bus and, uh, tried to scrub your history.
Yeah, did you see that where, like, iDubbbz has been going on, like, almost an apology tour?
Oh, has he?
Yeah, he appeared on Hassan's stream, and Hassan was like, oh, if you think about it, like, when you were doing all those things back in the day, you were actually doing it for leftist causes, though, weren't you?
Weren't you?
You were really being a leftist the whole time.
And Idoms was just there nodding along like, yeah, totally, yeah, sure.
You know, if you say the nuclear word, but for leftism, it's okay.
Well, he said two nuclear words.
He said the nuclear word and the fallout word as well.
He said nuclear fallout a few times.
And, I mean, that's amazing.
I suppose that's why we get away with that anti-fascist, anti-Nazi there being like, well, we're going to call him the nuclear word.
Why not the fallout word as well?
But there we have it.
Oh god, that's embarrassing to learn.
It really is.
Yeah, he appeared on the H3 podcast as well, basically just groveling the whole time, and his wife's there the whole time as well.
Like, well, people think I've ruined him, but actually I was involved in the old edgy content as well.
We've just grown as people.
Now come with me, hubby.
You need to take more pictures from my OnlyFans.
Yep.
Oh, God.
Anyway, I didn't know that.
That's a sad note to end on, but there we have it, which is, um, she is black, y'all.
That, I suppose, is the lesson we have learned.
And don't get married to hussies.
Let's go to the next one.
Alright, let's take a look at Less Money Mo Problems.
As we're all aware, we are currently in a cost of living crisis.
It's hit me pretty hard.
I'm sure that you've been affected by it as well.
Very salty.
I don't know if you drive, you don't, do you?
No, but I'm looking at the housing prices mostly and getting salty.
Yeah, I am jealous of people who don't drive, because I do drive a lot, and it's really affecting me when I get up to the pump, because, especially driving diesel right now, it's gone up in the UK to like £2 a litre regularly.
A few months ago, I was at a petrol station on the motorway, which always have inflated prices, and it was like that, and I thought, oh god, I'm getting ripped off.
No, that's just a normal price.
This is what we're all having to put up with, and Americans are also having to put up with something very similar.
I should clarify, I can drive, but I never did because it's like since I could move somewhere and work, well, walking distance, because you'd look at the petrol prices even before all this and think, out of hell with that.
And now, I'm very happy.
I remember the glorious days back in 2016 when diesel was like 95p a litre, and I just think, what a waste it was.
I should have hoarded it.
I should have filled up gas tank after gas tank of diesel just to keep to myself.
I remember when it got to 120 and my dad was like, why don't we just go on petrol, you know, riots?
What's stopping us exactly now?
I suppose necessity more than anything.
But yeah, one of the things that is causing this, well, there's a lot of different factors, but one of the things I'm sure you've all noticed is your governments, mine included, Deciding that, no, no, no, no, we need to send off all of our money to Ukraine, because Ukraine are the ones who are really hurting right now, and if it makes us feel better, I'm sure that you guys can handle just a little bit of a squeeze for however long it takes.
Doesn't feel great.
Doesn't feel great, does it?
Getting involved in foreign conflicts that are completely outside of our interests, while at the same time we're getting screwed over.
Now, my implication here...
It's not the only thing, of course, that has caused all of this.
Of course not.
It's one of those fetishes that our politicians have that you just think, why?
Why are you doing this?
Yeah, well, the politicians screwing us over every which way from Sunday.
You can take any particular angle and you can be sure the politicians have screwed us over somewhere.
For instance, you should check out Callum's recent video he did with Connor Tomlinson talking about immigration being the reason that you can't afford a house.
And this is more specific to the UK because, of course, we do get ridiculous levels of net migration every single year.
We literally don't replace ourselves.
So how many houses a year do you have to build for that population that doesn't replace itself?
We need to build at least 300,000 every year.
Don't you understand, Callum?
We've only built over 1% of all of the Greenland in the UK. Shut up, Tom Harwood.
So, you know, if we just pave over the whole thing to the point where it's 50% and you've got a few parks here and there, it's perfectly fine, isn't it?
Why not just put, essentially, Tokyo in the middle of the country on our island?
You actually did that as well, didn't you?
You checked it out, and it's ridiculous.
I did not realise that Tokyo was such a massive city.
I don't want anything like that here.
But if the Tom Harwoods, the so-called Conservatives of the UK right now, get their way, that's what we're going to get.
But let's take a look at what's going on in the world right now, because...
Like I said, my implication here is not necessarily that the government should stop sending money over to Ukraine and start interfering more with the economy than they already are.
No, the problem is they've already interfered with the economy enough to the point where it's screwing us all over.
And then on top of that, they've decided they need to send billions in relief over for a foreign conflict, which if we just keep prolonging it by giving Ukraine more resources, surely that just means that more people will end up dying.
Overall.
I mean, logically speaking.
You can argue for their support, but then it's just like, okay, well then, why do we have to do so much money?
Yeah.
That's the question.
But one of the things that came out recently that somebody tagged me in on Twitter, and thank you to Happy American Month, at AntiGroomer, for tagging me in this, was this interview with CNN, where the CNN anchor shockingly asked a reasonable question, which is, What do you say to those families that say,
listen, we can't afford to pay $4.85 a gallon for months, if not years, because who knows how long this, uh, definitely not money laundering scream of sending relief over to Ukraine is going to last as long as the conflict goes on.
And, uh, Biden's advisor, Brian Deese...
Remember, it's all because of Putin.
Trust me.
He, uh, he gave a rather mask-off answer.
Let's take a look at the clip, eh?
Sustainable.
What do you say to those We can't afford to pay $4.85 a gallon for months, if not years.
This is just not sustainable.
What was heard from the President today was a clear articulation of the stakes.
This is about the future of the liberal world order, and we have to stand firm.
So even more than the previous pronouncements by Pete Buttigieg and people like that of just by Tesla's idiots, he's literally just going, no, we need to preserve the future of the liberal world order.
About as close as you can get to saying the new world order without actually saying the new world order.
The Build Back Better.
Yeah.
So, yeah, this whole thing, this whole separation of the plebs like you and me from the ruling classes could not be made clearer than a statement like this, that it's hurting the people, it's hurting the public, but it works for our agenda, it works for our globalist goals, so we're gonna do it anyway.
I mean, it's also just to mention, like, obviously the gas price isn't pegged to Putin's invasion, because you can see it before and after as well.
It was already rising.
It's already in the CNN universe where they're sledding out as if, you know, all the problems are Putin's fault, which is obviously not Biden's, and then saying, well, okay, how long do we have to go on for this?
As long as it needs to.
Yep.
That's the answer from the Biden facts.
Obviously, inflation was happening before then.
There was lots of inflation in terms of quantitative easing.
There were relief checks to people on the street.
But I think I saw something recently that made it clear that that was kind of overstated in comparison to the fact that in March of 2020, did you know that there was just a complete stock market crash?
Yep, it just completely crashed, and then like a week later, everything's back to normal.
That is not how a stock market crash is supposed to naturally correct itself.
And you can be sure that it was the Fed handing out more bailouts to all of their favoured companies that was causing that, and then, you know, the inflation that comes along with that just through just...
Throwing new money at these companies as well is absolutely ridiculous.
It is cronyism gone absolutely wild.
It's screwing us all over.
And this person in particular, this guy who said we need to protect our agenda at the cost of what the people want, is a man called Brian Dees.
I thought I'd just take a quick look into him because he's an interesting character.
He's the current director of the National Economic Council under President Joe Biden.
And if the president and the executive and the government interfering in the economy scares you, Or if it doesn't, it should.
Because the director of the NEC is not a cabinet-level position, he did not need to be confirmed by the Senate.
So he is an unaccountable and unelected official who is in massive control of your day-to-day life, whether you know it or not.
And of course, prior to his current position, Dees was global head of sustainable investing at BlackRock, a position he'd held since 2017.
Because you can always trace these people back to BlackRock.
Every single damn time.
And sustainable investing is, of course, ESG. Environmental, social, and governance, which is just promoting the woke agenda, which is something I've talked about quite a lot.
And it says in this article, after a successful early career at BlackRock, he shifted to economic policy advising Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama before being appointed director to this council by Biden.
In this role, he helps coordinate policy development for the White House on topics like taxes, regulation, housing policy, green energy, and the automotive industry.
And it doesn't seem like he's doing a fantastic job with any of that, although I would argue that you can't do a fantastic job with any of that because these will always have unintended consequences through regulation, housing policy, etc.
that will always lead to very negative consequences for people because you can't predict what's going to happen in five years once you've got the ball rolling on these sorts of things.
And honestly, if it does happen five years down the line, the likelihood is there's going to be a new president.
So if you're an unaccountable, unelected official, they're not going to blame you.
They're going to blame the person who's in charge at the time and not actually go back and look at where all this came from.
That's the easy out that these sorts of politicians have.
It's totally true, but just the question on my mind is whether or not this dude owns a Tesla.
Because of course with his position and the fact that they've had such a thing with Tesla, basically their ESG scores are terrible on purpose, just to try and harm them.
They refuse to invite them to the White House.
I think they've been taken off of ESG, which given that BlackRock and Vanguard could go by, that are the biggest investment firms in the whole world, can hurt their investment.
But I hope that Tesla is already a big enough company that they don't have to worry as much about that.
But it's obviously an attack on Tesla because of, well, the owner is not part of their club.
Yeah.
And he doesn't want to be part of their club.
Thank goodness.
And then when you recognize all this sort of stuff, it makes it sting just that little bit more that instead of just laying off of all the economic pressure, because as far as I'm concerned, we are in a recession.
At the moment.
That's kind of what's going on.
It's just that the Fed and the UK banks and the central banks and such are just keep pumping in that money to try and inflate, to try and get us out of the recession, which is basically just causing an inflationary recession, which is not good for anybody because people's wages are not growing, but everything is still getting way more expensive, way faster than anybody can keep up.
It does make it sting quite a lot that at the same time that's going on, Why don't we just send $40 billion to Ukraine?
And this is from the US. This is back from May.
So they confirmed that they were going to be promising that this money would go towards humanitarian assistance, economic support funds, security assistance.
One particularly scary one that I noticed here, Presidential Drawdown Authority, which authorizes a further $11 billion in Presidential Drawdown Authority, which allows the president to authorize the transfer of articles and services from the US stocks without congressional approval.
In response to an emergency.
That's pretty scary.
To just slip that in there that you're going to be able to give more power to the executive branch of the US government.
Just throw that in there.
This is why you need to read these sorts of things.
And then also diplomacy.
So that's not great.
That's not great when it's a conflict that the US, by all rights, should have no part in.
This is also on top of the $13 billion that were already sent.
So the title is actually like $53 billion.
Yeah, well, we'll get into that.
And then we've got in the EU themselves saying, oh wait, sorry, this is from a few days ago.
I think this is from yesterday, actually, yeah?
They've been dispersing that money.
They've got $1.3 billion that's been sent so far.
The US Treasury Department announced on Wednesday the transfer of $1.3 billion to economic age to Ukraine as part of the initial $7.5 billion promised to Kiev by the Biden administration in May.
Which the Biden Foundation will be receiving and then helping Ukraine.
Trust us, bro.
Yeah, you mentioned about your friends who know about the NGOs over in Ukraine, which are all just staffed by people involved in Biden.
Marjorie Taylor Greene went on a podcast, just said, yeah, like, the money this is going to is to NGOs owned by people who are politicians, like family members.
Who I'm sure give themselves nice fat salaries.
Okay, so this thing is just a circle.
Yeah, of course it is.
That's what's really going on here.
You're getting screwed over, I'm getting screwed over, and these guys are making an absolute killing off it.
The country is currently running a budget deficit that's growing by $5 billion every month.
This is Ukraine.
And we'll get back into that in a minute as well, actually.
Exacerbated by its inability to raise funds or to access financing on external markets.
Allies have rushed to pump Ukraine with aid, with the G7 and European Union also announcing commitments of $29.6 billion in further money for Kiev, with $8.5 billion of that coming from the United States, according to the Treasury Department.
Washington already dispersed two payments of $500 million of that through the World Bank in April and May to help cover Ukraine's immediate costs as it dealt with Russia's unprovoked and unjustified invasion, the Treasury said.
Washington has already also supplied Kiev with more than $6 billion in military equipment since Russia's invasion, which must give them in line with the Taliban.
The amount of military equipment the US has been given.
Oh, the Taliban have got more than that.
Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
It's virtually a good name of the Taliban.
Kiev's not looking quite as good as Afghanistan right now.
I think they've still got the third largest air force on Earth.
Oh my god!
And we in the UK, we've always got to follow the lead of Big Daddy America, so we've also promised an extra £1 billion of military aid for Ukraine's fight against Russia.
We've said that we'll be dramatically increasing our support for Volodymyr Zelenskyy's defence of his country.
The new funding amounts to a 77% increase on the £1.3 billion already provided with Boris Johnson claiming British support was transforming Ukraine's defences against the Russian onslaught.
Once again, you know, like, Boris Johnson more than happy to try and help Ukraine because his hat is...
As you've pointed out before, it's fine when it's their nationalism.
In fact, it's wonderful, it's amazing, it's beautiful when we're protecting somebody else's nationalism, but when it's ours, no, no, no, no, no, that's not allowed.
And, I mean, just adding to the cringe factor of this whole thing, Boris recently went out on an interview and just pointed out that, oh yeah, yeah, what's going on is actually, this is just a display of toxic masculinity.
If you go to the next one, I think they've got a quote in it.
If Putin was a woman, he wouldn't have invaded Ukraine.
He said, the Russian invasion of Ukraine is a perfect example of toxic masculinity.
I'm quite happy about the toxic masculinity Margaret Thatcher had in defending our country.
She's a woman.
What now?
Well, if we're saying that warmongering is only the result of toxic masculinity, what are we going to say about Hillary?
Well, he's essentially saying about all war as well.
Shut up.
It's just painful.
Just shut up and go away, Boris.
I can't wait for the end of your career.
Who does he think this appeals to as well?
What was the point in this statement?
Was the man on the street who's standing at the petrol station pump watching it tick up far faster than it should, knowing that he's going to refill it in a few days anyway because the fuel he's buying will not get him as far because he just can't afford it.
Is he just thinking, oh, thank God we're at least helping Ukraine out of their tricky situation?
With toxic masculinity.
Yeah.
I mean, what retard in CCHQ is like, you know what demographic we can win over to our cause?
The SJWs.
I mean, are you actually brain dead?
What are you doing?
Sorry.
And all of this to support Wladimir Zielinski, a man who has repeatedly been shown to be quite the warmonger, saying that every other country who's allied with him should personally get involved with on-the-ground fighting.
Didn't he also call for a no-fly zone, which would have caused some massive issues as well?
Yeah, people make a lot of this, though, and I'm just like, well, yeah, he's under attack.
Of course he's going to go around asking for help constantly.
Yes, but it does seem when it's situations like this where he gets to have, I think he was at the Oscars over video call, when he gets to meet people like Ben Stiller who come and I saw a video of him, Ben Stiller saying, oh, you're my hero.
It does seem to be just a little bit self-serving.
Just a little bit self-serving.
Oh, oh, oh, my country's getting attacked, but don't worry, I get the chance to become a celebrity.
Nobody knew who I was.
Because remember as well, he is a failed actor.
I will be honest, the Ben Stiller thing, I don't think many Ukrainians are happy about.
Just like, who cares?
Yeah.
Is this guy gonna come and fight?
Here's a rifle.
Get working.
Yeah, Ben Stiller with his little helmet on, just like, I didn't prepare for this role.
We said all men, you included.
Yeah, like, Zielinski definitely seems to be someone who, as far as I can tell, given the fact that, you know, knowing his history as a failed actor, is milking the spotlight a little bit.
Something like that.
I mean, there are those videos of him in, like, weird bondage gear.
Dancing around.
Have you not seen those?
I think that's probably a pretty good movie.
I mean, it's not on my alley, but, you know, if you want to check it out.
So, yeah, that's interesting.
And also, you've got to remember...
People in the chat are like, Ben Sklurge is going to do Tropic Thunder.
We need to send Robert Dowdy Jr.
in there.
That'll save the day.
Zielinski himself is not exactly what I would call somebody who is completely...
Completely spotless in his track record, like a few months ago when he nationalised the TV news and restricted opposing parties, which makes me think, yes, we are doing this to try and help democracy, global democracy worldwide.
I don't know about the TV thing, but I know the opposing parties is because they're Russian nationalists and kind of war with Russia.
Well, the thing is, though, if you're going to justify these sorts of measures for war times and such like that, you can just basically narrow down the circumstances until you're able to use any justification for this sort of stuff, especially if you're saying we're doing it for democracy against the oligarchs.
We did the same when we were at war with Germany.
Like, we banned the British Union of fascists because, well, you're clearly working with the enemy.
So the Russian nationalists, like, I kind of, I can see why.
I can see why, but obviously this is not as black and white as it seems.
And once again, by just funding all of this stuff, sending loads of weapons and such over to Ukraine, as John has pointed out in the past, are we not just extending the conflict and increasing the chances of people It's such a weird argument,
though.
Like, why not just surrender?
Because then less people will die.
I mean, that's not really an argument in a war.
Well, no, no, no, no.
It's more the fact that, like, I think, given the fact that we keep having to send them billions and billions of dollars, this is past the point where Ukraine would have been able to support themselves.
So we're artificially extending the conflict, which is actually hurting more people.
So, whatever.
But I don't know why we're sending them money.
It's like, you guys seem to be doing alright.
Anyway, and I actually found a Guardian article which is quite interesting in terms of the cost of living crisis over here and the sorts of unintended consequences of this sort of stuff.
And I don't normally, you know, promote the article for their excellent journalism, but these are the sorts of unintended consequences that come from rampant inflation, increasing the cost of living past the point that people can sustain themselves.
For instance, this article pointing out is putting a strain on domestic abuse So people who are, you know, in domestically violent relationships who want to get away are finding it way more difficult to be able to do that because they just can't support themselves because everything is such a squeeze over here right now.
And if you're going to talk about, oh, we need to protect the people over in Ukraine, maybe we should start thinking about all of the people who we're letting down over here as a result of all of this terrible policymaking.
This is an old Ben Shapiro quote, which is like, if you focus your sympathy on one group, you end up not sympathizing with anyone that you're leaving behind.
I mean, it's a good point.
And The Guardian also pointed out, in regards to the G7 summit Ukrainian measures, some of the things that were agreed to in there.
For instance, on finance, Ukraine, as we pointed out earlier, is gobbling up an extraordinary $5 billion a month as its economy and exports degrade.
But the US is prepared to underwrite this.
So there's an extra $5 billion a month.
The American public are prepared to underage.
Yep.
If you ask them.
Yeah.
Well, of course he hasn't.
Once again, he's getting his advice from people who don't have any accountability to the public, so...
Right.
Yeah.
Biden promised another $800 million in defence assistance in the next few days, including a new advanced air defence system, which I guess we'll just send over there.
I'm sure we can trust the notoriously spotless and squeaky clean Eastern European governments with all of this equipment.
You know, I see no issues with this.
On weapons before the summit, an advisor to the Ukrainian president gave an inventory of Ukraine's needs: 1,155mm caliber howitzers, 300 multiple launch rocket systems, 500 tanks, 2,000 armored vehicles, 1,000 drones, Ukrainian forces have lost 700 armoured vehicles in the last three months, and replacements are urgently needed.
Both France and Spain have responded with the offer of tanks or armoured personnel carriers.
And they just go on about all of this.
the hundreds of thousands, well, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of equipment they need, which we're more than happy to send over, apparently.
And just as the Ukrainian forces can only suffer a certain level of attrition, they say here, so too Western politicians can only risk the wrath of their electorates for so long.
The proposals from the US to cut the price of Russian oil and from Italy to curb the price of Russian piped gas, discussed at length in the G7, were probably the two most significant ideas to emerge from the summits.
Macron admitted that these ideas are currently a construction site.
They urgently need a lot more work if the West is to find a way to hit the Russian economy and protect European consumers, which, honestly at this point, seems like it's an impossibility to do both at the same time.
And being a so-called European consumer, I care a lot more about my back pocket personally than hitting the Russian economy.
I also kind of hate this narrative.
It's just like, yeah, all the problems now.
I mean, you can see why they're obsessed with Ukraine actually now.
It is so they can offload all of the failures they've done.
This is Russia's fault.
It's a smokescreen.
It's a very, very convenient smokescreen.
And one of the other things that I found interesting was that I went on Mises and they had an article about this, was that it actually gives the left a strong talking point when we are funding all of these wars.
Over in foreign countries.
Because they say here, the left's point, the right regularly challenges that we cannot afford certain things, like welfare and subsidies to companies and such, but if we can afford foreign aid in wars we have no business in, then why can't we simply prioritise many of the left's calls for various social programmes?
And this is a good point.
They're saying, well, if we can afford to constantly send $40 billion to Ukraine and then consistently send more over, it makes the argument that we can't fund welfare Much weaker.
It wasn't from 2008, and then the logic played itself out in the COVID lockdowns for the UK. So in 2008, we just print loads of money, and then they're like, why isn't there money for the NHS? Okay, COVID happens, print loads of money for the NHS, and just in general anyway.
Yeah, and it just starts this snowball effect, really, doesn't it?
In fact, this is not nearly the first time that the issue has come up.
In 2019, during the Democratic presidential debate, Senator Elizabeth Warren swept off the criticism of the cost of her plan with the claim.
So look, let's be clear about this.
We're the Democrats.
We're not about trying to take healthcare from anyone.
That's what the Republicans are trying to do, and we should stop using Republican talking points in order to talk with each other about how to best provide their healthcare.
The intellectual backing for this belief that costs are just a Republican talking point stems from MMT, Modern Monetary Theorists.
In 2020, a guy wrote an article referencing one of the faces of this, Stephanie Kelton, entitled, The Government Can Afford Anything It Once.
And you wonder why these sorts of people are incredibly popular with the regime.
Don't worry, you don't need to worry about paying back any of this massive debt you're racking up.
You can just print more money to pay off, and if you have more inflation, Well, we can just figure out some other Ponzi scheme to be able to get you out of that inflation in the first place.
If there's inflation, we just print more money to make up for the inflation that we already caused by printing all the money in the first place.
What's the big deal, you know?
It's a check.
It's a blank check.
Being signed to government.
And what example best showed that government is not limited by costs?
They pointed out the Federal Reserve does not dip its hand into a pox of tax dollars to pay military contractors, nor is it required to check some mythical account where tax dollars live before it wires them money.
As we've seen, MMT is already practiced by warmongering politicians who see no problem with unlimited spending.
And they go on to say in the article, we know that this boom is caused by an illusion of economic prosperity is inevitably followed by a Bust.
As the illusion is eventually shattered.
This means that this limitless war spending does in fact have catastrophic effects on the economy, even if MMTers and those influenced by them gloss over these effects.
We in fact cannot afford these.
And how will we pay for it is not just a Republican talking point that does not apply to wars.
What they're basically saying in this is that, yeah, we can't afford all of these democratic points of like, oh, we need more welfare spending, but we also can't afford all of the war either.
Both of these things are bad and will lead to complete economic ruin.
And I know we like to talk about a lot of metaphysical stuff on the podcast and go into some esoteric subjects, but at the end of the day, economic stuff, like how much things cost, affects us on a day-to-day basis.
That actually will be the end of the civilisation.
Yeah, so it's pretty important.
And the next one was just talking about how to end rampant home price inflation, but I think this goes for a lot of other stuff as well.
They don't mention it here, obviously, in the UK, for instance, we need to stop all of the mass immigration coming in here.
But the fact of the matter is, we are in a recession right now, possibly even leading up to a proper depression.
And just trying to print our way out of it, print more money to get out of it, is not going to happen.
We are going to have to let things collapse.
At the end of the day, that's the only way that we can right the ship.
Because, I think Mises said, if you just let the bubble inflate, that will just make it so that the eventual depression, that when it busts, is going to be so much worse.
So, if we want to avoid it just getting worse and worse and worse, better to just do it now, rather than later, as far as I'm concerned.
There you go.
I think you're right.
I suppose we'll move on to the tragedy of the Bodega Bro.
What did you say?
Bodega?
Bodega.
That's what I'm aware of, at least.
I think so.
I'm not American, thank God.
So, let's talk about the tragedy of Bodega Bro.
So, this is a story of very much a hardship and struggle of a local man who went to the city and quickly realised, don't go to the city.
That's a bad idea, bro.
I think that's what we all realised the first time we go to the city.
Yeah.
So we'll start off just as a promotion, of course, this being the Mega City 1 is not an aspirational future that Carl did, which is, yeah, the cities look like hell.
And, well, to be honest, nothing seems to be stopping in that regard, and it is perfectly illustrated by Bodega Bro.
So if we go to the first link here, we can see this is a guy who decided to move to New York and found it full of pride, to say the least.
And he was a bit shocked by this, being a country boy.
And we'll play the clip in which he is not disrespectful.
He's not, you know, something that would actually upset anyone normal.
He instead is just mystified.
He just seems like a nice guy who's got a bit of a culture shock going on.
Let's play the first clip.
Bro, like, this place is so crazy.
Like, so many gay people down here, which, like, I don't hate it.
Like, I'm not gay, but, like, I'm all for it.
Do what you want.
but like, like look at this.
I tried to do that trend on those people where it's like he's a 10 but whatever and like they had no idea what I was talking about but during the talk so it's hilarious.
Like is being gay just like the new thing like I didn't know this many gay people existed it's wild.
He does come across like a tourist at the zoo.
Yeah.
Just look at the wildlife around here.
Yeah, it's kind of true.
When you visit American cities, that's what you're getting now, which is a wild culture shock of the fact that America's weird.
Because, of course, it's not gay people.
It's not, I ran into some gay guys.
It is, I ran into queer people.
As you can see, quite a few of them are dressed in ridiculous outfits.
I hadn't noticed when I watched that clip before.
Did you see the state of the streets with all the garbage on them?
Jesus.
Horrible.
He goes on to describe the whole place as an asshole because of that.
It is.
And he's not wrong.
And if you go back one, John, just so we can see that individual who posted the footage because it's also been deleted now.
It's just like, my most favourite TikTok ever is this video, which has 15 likes from a guy who just visited the Bronx and found it full of gay people.
Of course, this being Pride as well, so it's not just gay people.
Again, I can't reiterate that enough.
It is something else, to say the least.
But then, that's what it is.
That's what it is in the cities.
I mean, I went to London a couple of days ago, and we've seen the problem we have, which is we now have literally, like, you know...
Brown-funded banners of oppression pretty much everywhere, reminding us of our place, also in the tunnels and everywhere else.
Not to mention the fact, of course, that it's American pride.
It's the racial pride flag.
But let's leave that for a minute.
Because if we go to the next link, we can see Lauren Southern, thankfully, made a video about this, Bodega Bro, as he's been dubbed, and documented the Boogman here.
The Boogman was very upset, and the Boogman...
He does look a bit like a cricket.
...took a big obsession, you know, big problem with this.
Let's play his response.
There's so much to say.
He probably doesn't want to hear what I have to say.
And that's fine.
This video isn't for him.
This video is for all the people who always say, Dutch, why do you get mad about people moving to New York?
And it's because they often have attitudes like that.
They come to the city, in this case the Bronx, and instead of integrating themselves into their community, they just make a mockery of it.
I mean, what?
what he's been here like two days and he's found a way to make fun of the stores that many people in the community are relying on.
Stores that people have to rely on because the supermarket he's so desperately looking for doesn't exist because he's moved to a city which is historically and still today systematically deprived certain neighborhoods neighborhoods that are predominantly black and brown and or working class of basic resources.
I know you're gonna say it's not that serious but it is.
How would you feel if somebody came in your house uninvited and started making fun of all your furniture?
I am not at all mad about somebody moving to New York.
I'm mad about people moving to New York and having attitudes like that.
There's comedy, and then there's mockery, and there's a very clear difference between the two.
So the complaint about the stores there is because, we'll show it later, but there's another video where he just points out there's no grocery stores.
Yeah.
Zero.
I don't know if we're going to get to the memes.
I'm sure we will.
Have you got the one on physiognomy?
I don't think I do, but you can see the difference between Bodega Bro, who looks like a bit of a Chad, and The difference between good and evil has never been so clear.
And there's a few things with that guy's video there.
One, just the smug, condescending attitude.
I hate the S-eating grins that these people have, like they're explaining everything to you like you're a child.
And also, just his whole thing, like, oh, people who don't integrate.
Why?
Why would anyone want to integrate with that?
Goal of a left winger telling me about integration into the West.
But there we have it.
I mean, that's what they think the United States is and what people should integrate into.
That.
It is leftist city hellholes.
That's what they think the entire country should look like.
If you don't integrate into it, then there's something wrong with you.
It's just unbelievable.
But I also love the whole thing where he's like, don't you know about these historically oppressed neighbourhoods?
They don't have grocery stores?
I was like, just improve the neighbourhood then.
I mean, sorry, the Bronx have only been part of New York for, what, 150 years?
Something like that?
I mean, they've not had time to build a single grocery store.
I mean, that's impossible, frankly.
All they've got are corner stores, as he'll point out in a minute.
But he dared to say these things and point out that the city is the city.
Not even in a bad way.
He's just like, well, look at it.
It's pretty weird, isn't it?
And there's no grocery stores.
That kind of sucks, which is a fair point.
Local man visits the city, finds there's no grocery stores.
Well, that's crap.
It's a good point by Bodega Bro.
And if you go to the next one, of course, well, a cartoon had something to say about that, didn't they?
A cartoon account.
So if you click on the left image here, you can see some, I don't know what kind of anime that is, but some person who clearly doesn't have a life is very upset with that and decides to tag his workplace.
And it's like, quickly, get him fired.
How I feel like it's very flattering to have this type of person representing your company.
Mm-hmm.
And of course, the company, being a bunch of cuckolds, responded immediately, saying, What did he do wrong?
He said, you don't have a grocery store, and that there's a lot of gay people in New York.
He wasn't even mad about there being loads of gay people.
He was just trying to be nice.
No, he was just like, look at this.
Bit weird.
Yeah.
Look at this where I'm from.
I mean, do you hire any Muslims?
Ask their opinions on the situation of Pride in New York.
I mean, you are right.
The shocking thing is that I don't see what is egregious at all with anything that I've seen this guy say.
It is the minimum level of criticism of the city's.
That's all he's done.
I mean, if they want to hear real criticism of the cities, give me five minutes, you know?
We can have some fun.
We can say more things than he did, obviously.
But he gave the minimum level of criticism, which is that, you know, it's very leftist and there's no grocery stores.
Kind of sucks.
So, yeah, it does kind of suck.
But that is enough to have you delete it, as you can see the response there.
If you go to the next one, you have Outreach who confirmed all this.
As you can see, their tweets are still up, in which they just confirmed, yes, we fired him.
They've not done anything since, because they're just getting absolutely mauled by everyone just being like, the hell's the matter with you?
Like, what's wrong with you?
Like, your employee has surely some rights to be able to have a life outside of your goddamn work environment, in which he might say a thing like, cities kind of suck.
I feel like someone should have the right to do that.
Especially if they're working in some, you know, essentially an office job, because this is some company that just does, like, figuring out your sales.
They're not, well, they shouldn't be, you would have thought, a campaigning organization for leftist doctrine.
But apparently they are.
Apparently that's what comes first.
In the modern world.
If you go to the next one here, you can see they also decided to back this up, saying, We always welcome feedback from the community, as our reach continues to build our culture that finds strength in our diversity, equity, and inclusion.
But of course, not from anyone who might criticise you ever so slightly, where you do business, and say that the street's kind of messy, there's not people who are quite strange, and there's no grocery stores.
Nope, that's not allowed.
That's not part of the inclusion.
That's time for exclusion.
So many a meme were made about Bodega Bro and his struggles.
So if you go to the next one here, you can see.
Chats create good times.
Good times create the boog men.
And the boog men create bodega times.
And bodega times create chats.
As he tells them and says, wow, this is bad.
You should build a grocery store.
I mean, in fact, I would love...
I don't know if this guy's got the capacity, but I'd love for some investors who are going to be like, what about a grocery store in the Bronx?
Gotta manage that.
Here's the salary.
Go build it.
I mean, that would be amazing.
You could actually improve the place unlike anyone else involved in this.
If you go to the next link here, you can see, of course, that his account is obviously kill.
It's gone.
That's a shame.
Where were you when Bodega Bro was kill?
Someone came in and told me Bodega Bro was kill.
I said, oh no.
Do you know the meme?
Never mind.
But this wasn't his only crime against the Holy City, of course, because he made other videos, and we'll play some of them.
The first one, which is where he dared to insult the corner shops and mention that there are no grocery stores.
Let's play.
So I just moved to New York, and I'm trying to go grocery shopping, and so I type in, like, grocery stores on my Apple Maps, and, like, every f***ing one I go to, like, I'm walking too, like, they're like this s***, or, like, f***ing...
Like this.
Like, bro, that's not a grocery store.
Like, I'm trying to get, like, eggs, yogurt, like, cheese, like, s*** like that, right?
Like, look at this place.
I mean, that doesn't look great.
Fair point.
If that's your only place to get food, buy it, instead of going out to eat, that kind of sucks.
Yeah, I mean, it does look like one of those corner shops.
I don't know, I've been to some corner shops in the past, and, you know, I've been desperately hungry, and bought a sandwich, and opened the sandwich, and it's just been mouldy.
So I don't blame him for not trusting those sorts of corner shops to sell, like, in-date produce.
Everyone's been there as well.
Everyone's lived somewhere where there's a corner store, but then when you need to go shopping, you go find the grocery store.
You don't just live at a corner store.
Apparently the entire place in the Bronx is just like that.
Yeah, I mean, I've actually...
I've actually had a run-in seeing this sort of stuff in the past.
A few months ago, Josh and I on a weekend segment covered just don't live in cities.
And the thing that set it off was the fact that there was this tweet going around that kind of went a little bit viral because people were making fun of the guys because he was like, I live in New York and I went to the local bodega asking for butter and he said, oh, I don't have any.
And then I was like, oh...
What a shame.
He was leaving and he went, oh wait actually, how much?
You just need a little bit for dinner?
And he just gave him a cup of butter.
And he had a picture of this disgusting looking cup with some butter which I can only assume he ran in the back and scraped some from his personal supply of butter from.
And everybody was ripping on this guy like, is this how everyone lives in New York?
You could go to...
Oh, it's a surprise!
It's such a welcome surprise that my local quarter shop had butter in.
I mean, honestly.
Damn, bro, you live like this?
Pretty much.
That is the state of the city.
I mean, it's just inhuman.
And I saw a bunch of, like, responses from people in New York saying, this is fine, our bodegas are great.
Why are you attacking the bodegas?
Oh, such cope.
Dude, come on.
Like, nobody wants to live like this.
Like, this is not desirable.
You want a big Asda with everything in, you can go around with your big supermarket shop and pick up whatever you want, not the cup of butter from the weird bodega guy.
You don't want to have to share a tiny little, like, 4x4 flat with four girls who are all probably OnlyFans models who are five subscribers who no one cares about.
Alright, save that.
We're insulting the stores today.
I'm just insulting the cities.
I mean, Jesus Christ, the way that some of these people live, I just don't understand it.
But there's one more clip in here which we'll play, which is just another insult he had, which was he dared to joke about the fact that he's the only white guy.
And he brought a very colourful shirt to express his support.
Let's play.
I'm in the McDonald's gym for my second workout in New York.
Got shoulders and arms today.
I'm in the Bronx for a few weeks, so I'm like the only white dude in this whole gym.
So I got this NAACP shirt.
So these people vibe with me more.
I mean, I love it.
That's fair.
This guy seems pretty based, to be honest.
He's just having a laugh.
He's like, you know, went to the gym.
Only white guy.
So, NAACP shirt.
So I can be like, you alright, brother?
Yeah, man.
I mean, it's obviously just a cool meme.
Why not?
So, there you have it.
Like, funny guy.
And, of course, that was another one of his crimes.
As you can see here, some other person who presumably doesn't have an actual job.
Sorry to go in here, and they responded, because he responded to a few of these, just being like, dude, what's your problem?
Like, this is clearly just a joke.
Like, what's with all the hate?
And he's right, it's ridiculous.
And he responds in the comments, saying, what is it?
He stands with the colored community.
Hello?
You can't believe you did that!
How dare you say such things!
I support the colored community, that's why I got the shirt.
I mean, yeah, he is pointing out, it's not like I'm wearing a confederate flag or something, I mean, Jesus.
I don't know if he knew he was, you know, trolling, because of course, colored is not acceptable.
Well, I mean- Except, uh, do you know what the NAACP stands for?
I know, I know.
National Association for the Advancement of Colored People?
I mean, what do you do?
Are we going to cancel the NAACP next?
Cancel the NAACP. We're coming for you.
I mean, the NAACP have to be stopped.
And I know the weird, stupid defense you get from them.
It's like, oh, but it's that for historic reasons.
Like, shut up.
Shut the...
I'm so sick of this.
No, no, no.
See, colored person and person of color are just two completely different statements that aren't just the same words...
Switched around a little bit.
In fact, you need to use Yook McGamur, frankly, otherwise you're being very insulting to them by dehumanising them.
You always sound like you're clearing your throat when you throw that one out there.
Yook McGamur.
I mean, it's certainly Arabic and orange.
Yook McGamur.
It's something else.
But there we are.
If you scrub it out, this person's very, very upset about the whole thing.
It's just like, how dare they?
How dare they say this?
Coloured, what a crock of S. Like, okay, I'll bomb the MWCP if that's your problem.
I mean, you're not going to, obviously.
It's just obvious.
You want to be mad.
That is all your life is.
How dare the person come in and joke about where you live?
If you go to the next one here, there's some other people who are obviously very butthurt as well.
So this one, they say, there are not too many times I get pissed off, but I'm truly tired of this crap.
This racist-ass TikToker, GriffGreen20...
I still can't remember when people talk about handles.
It's serious.
It's really having a laugh.
It is running around and calling black and brown people's neighbourhoods S-holes.
Yeah, because the Bronx is where he was.
I mean, he said he was renting a place out so he could wait for, you know, where he actually wanted to live.
And he mentioned the fact that the streets are all covered in garbage and there are people who are beggars all high on drugs, begging and sleeping on all the streets.
Wait, was he moving to the city?
So he moved there to the Bronx and he was going to go move somewhere else that's nicer.
Yeah, I bet, yeah.
So he was there for a couple of weeks doing this.
He's like, yeah, this place sucks.
There's no grocery stores.
There are homeless people who are homeless because they're on drugs and can't keep a job down everywhere.
And there's trash everywhere.
So that's a lovely smell in the morning.
Yeah, it sounds like an asshole.
Yeah, but how dare you say this about black and brown communities?
I did see Lauren Southern made a very good joke about it.
It was like that...
She said it was like that sketch from...
What is it?
Currently the guy's name.
Gnome something.
Chomsky?
No, not Chomsky.
Comedian.
Who went on a show.
Do you mean Norm MacDonald?
Norm MacDonald, sorry.
And he's on the show.
And he says, you know, it's horrible.
Black people are poor.
And, you know, poor people are more dangerous.
And, of course, the black host, like, loses her S about all of this.
She's like, how dare you say that?
I was like, what, do you think black people are rich?
And then she's trapped, because of course you have to believe the black and brown people of colour, as they'd say, are the most oppressed and living in horrible squalid conditions and are being killed left, right, and centre.
But at the same time, you can't say that they're poor, as he did.
That's a good point.
So then she's stuck, and he's like, are you telling me that black people are all rich and they're all living it up in neighbourhoods?
No, there's a spectrum of people in all types of communities, but they're suffering equally...
You'll need to find that clip and send it to me.
That sounds great.
It's just pain to watch.
And he just ends it off.
You can almost sense, because it's radio, you can't tell, but you can imagine him smiling and going, look, I'm saying they're poor because I want to help them.
Do you not want to help them?
That's so funny.
Good question.
Anyway, but then, of course, Bodega Bro got many a media headline in here.
You can see this one from Reason that was saying, criticizing the lack of grocery stores in the South Bronx means Twitter mob will try and get you fired.
It'll successfully get you fired.
Yeah, I certainly did.
He mentions here that apparently the clip in the store bit was a bit longer, but I couldn't find it, in which he then turns around and is like, well, what am I meant to eat?
It's just ramen.
I'm just gonna be eating ramen for night.
That's his dinner, because he can't find anything else to buy in the goddamn store in the one he was in.
So, fantastic.
If you go to the next one, there's Australian News picked up on us.
Bodega Bro sacked from his new job after mocking New York convenience stores in viral TikTok.
Yeah, it sucks.
So he's gone international.
That's good.
He's in the UK now as well.
Oh, is he?
Well, us.
Yeah, true.
Good job, Bodega Bro.
If you go to the next one as well, there's also the Blaze picked up on us saying a man who moved to New York City complained about bodegas and a cancel culture mob got him fired from his job.
They certainly did.
That's how...
But this wasn't the response from most people, of course.
As I said, most people were just dogpiling on the job, being like, what the hell are you doing?
Why are you firing Bodega Bro?
It's a good point.
What are the grocery stores?
So that's the obvious point as well.
Like, Bodega Bro, like, you know, that interview, he was like, damn, you live like this?
There's no grocery stores?
He's trying to help them.
I was going to say, that's the thing.
He's expressing sympathy for them, having to live in such terrible conditions.
What should he have said?
Actually, everyone here is rich.
I mean, that's like the radio host was trying to say.
Just lie.
Yeah.
You know, everything's fine.
It's not fine.
There's no grocery stores.
Everyone can go get what they need.
And the outpouring of support for him came out in this example here.
As you can see, just saying he wasn't the hero we deserved, he was the hero we needed.
Hashtag BodegaBro.
Black and white photo of him.
Because, you know, it's basically dead socially now.
BodegaBro?
2022.
Yeah, if you go to the next one here, we have Solidarity with Bonega Bro.
Of course.
I also love the idea that he's gone but not forgotten.
It's crucified for pointing out that cities are assholes full of pricks.
They certainly are.
New York especially.
Yeah.
I mean, all the people being pissed off.
How dare you come here and point out that it sucks?
I was like, because it sucks.
Sorry, I ran off with your pizza slice, did they?
Okay.
Enjoy.
But there we are.
There's the lesson learned, which is, if you move to the cities, you will be terminated for blasphemy against the holy cities and the holy place on Pride Month as well.
How dare you?
I love that meme, sorry.
But I thought we'd end it off with another thing, which, of course, if you think you moved to a city, you must agree with, especially in Canada.
You have Toronto police here saying, news release, missing woman, Ryanson Avenue and Barthyrst Street area, Isabella DeGrace, 27.
Hmm...
Isabella here.
Must have escaped from the circus.
Yeah.
The bearded lady haven't shaved in a while.
Still got the male forehead as well.
Male skull.
But Isabella, presumably just born a bit wrong, perhaps.
In the wrong body, I'm sure.
Must have been it.
I mean, it's comical.
You can see the responses.
8,000 responses.
Yeah.
There's a pretty clear ratio.
The report itself, I mean this is real, as you can see.
There's a release from the Toronto Police saying the Toronto Police Service requests the public's assistance in locating a missing woman.
I honestly, I thought they might have put the wrong picture on the announcement, so I wasn't...
But no, this is real.
They can edit their website whenever they want.
They haven't done it.
She is described as 5'10", with a thin build, pair of bollocks, no, I don't have that, shaggy blonde hair, and with a full goatee.
That I didn't add.
In the description they have missing woman, full goatee, you know, 5'10".
Last scene was wearing a black t-shirt with grey pants.
So she's a very tall woman with a full beard.
We're looking for a woman with a beard.
Clown world, end me.
Isabella, she responds to.
Italian, maybe.
What, like a dog?
Isabella!
I got some crack for you!
He's got the skin tone of an Italian, Mediterranean type as well.
I mean, I don't know if the friends of him would just take it to piss, but they wrote down.
They end off this call for help with police are concerned for her safety.
Bless.
I mean, F's in the chat, boys.
Isabella, gone but not forgotten.
And Bonega Bro, gone but not forgotten as well.
I suppose that's that.
Don't move to the city.
I'm more and more in line with that opinion.
The bigger the city, the worse it gets.
That's for sure.
Let's go to the video comments.
I should also point out, though, that while I've been characterizing pleasure as opposed to fulfillment, they're not necessarily mutually exclusive.
They can be opposite.
For example, eating junk food being a pleasure and dieting for a healthier body being a source of fulfillment.
But you could also have an activity that arguably constitutes both.
Going out to get a drink with your friends would be a pleasure in going drinking.
But it could also be considered spending time maintaining your relationship with your friends and thus be fulfilling.
Yeah, I think he brought up the guitar example yesterday, didn't he?
Yeah, I think you can argue that there is a virtue in there in being able to develop, because being a guitarist myself, I feel the need to defend my favourite hobby.
There is something virtuous about being able to develop discipline and habits that are going to be positive for improving your skills on that, that can be applied elsewhere in life as well.
Maybe this is my bigotry, but I feel like the guitar is the instrument that is associated with that.
I feel like it's mostly associated with the lazy guy who just strums three songs and smokes weed.
Well, you can definitely say that, but not all guitarists are like that.
At the same time, you could take any positive pastime or hobby and point to the worst examples of it.
Fanbase ruining the guitar.
The Anyway Here's Wonderwall guys have ruined it for everyone.
Guys, guys, I've learned how to play Imagine.
Let's sing it again.
No!
Oh god, I was somewhere over the weekend where a bunch of people in the pub started singing Imagine and I wanted to kill myself.
Hans, get deflammed, Werther.
See you in the next one.
Alright.
Canadian Sparky here, and this is a video for Callum.
You asked if this motor was actually going to fit inside.
You wanted proof.
Well, here's your proof.
It fits.
My brother welded on a kind of Mickey Mouse looking engine mount for that side.
Can't really see the engine mount on that side because the steering pumps in the way, but it does fit in there.
Well good.
That's neat.
Don't know what to say.
Always good to see.
Go to the next one.
Canada has had a rough year with accelerating government overreach and authoritarianism, a prime minister becoming increasingly corrupt and arbitrary, and the collapse of trust in the police by citizens who had supported them wholeheartedly.
But it has also had a great year with the people coming together to find their voice, and also some influential Canadians finding ways to focus that voice and energy.
I wonder that we are at an inflection point where the years of Trudeau embarrassing us are now being countered by a groundswell of Canadians taking some true pride in our country and finding there may be some politicians behind whom we can unite.
It's a very good yearly round-up.
A bit of a weird thing to do in the middle of the year.
But otherwise, yeah, I fully agree, Alex.
And there have been some good and downs for the Canadians.
I did see, what is it, Jordan Peterson signed up with the Daily Wire now.
Yeah, Daily Wire Plus.
Is he getting more involved with actual politics?
I don't know.
I know there was some controversy from people like Oren McIntyre and those types, pointing out that it's not particularly conservative to have the first thing that Jordan Beeson joins and talks about be the promise of gay parenthood with Dave Rubin.
Okay, I was more concerned with, like, has he got into party politics?
Because I know he's always criticising Trudeau, but I don't know.
Of course I know they've got their cuck conservatives in there.
I assume that that's probably pushed him a little bit more towards trying to actively get involved, although if he has, I've not really seen him mention much of it.
He really should run as an MP, even as just an independent, if he doesn't want to tie himself to a party, just because, you know, screw it, you know.
Go in the chamber.
Just give them hell.
I mean, it'll be entertaining if nothing else.
And even if you just go for one term, I mean, no one will blame you for thinking, like, oh, he's put some stuff on the back burner.
Like, no, this is actually important.
So I think it would be a good thing for them to do.
But I guess we'll see.
Let's go to the next one.
Have any of you guys read Camp of Saints?
It's a 1970s dystopian novel about a fleet of millions of migrants sailing from the Ganges River to France to overrun it and being enabled by the Cathedral and its many allies, ultimately resulting in the downfall of all the Western countries.
The BBC made a British one where it's their Africans trying to mass-migrate to England, but they're actually met with cold steel and sent back into the sea.
Pretty based, actually.
I love that.
The BBC is like fanfiction of how the West works.
It's like, oh, they're so horrible.
And we're just there like, if only.
If only.
Now, I've not read The Camp of the Saints, although I keep seeing it referenced, like, whenever I'm reading about immigration, because Douglas Morey mentions it in Strange Death of Europe.
He brings it up, and the controversy it caused at the time it was written.
People going like, oh no, that could never happen.
Oh, this is just some weird dystopian fantasy you've come up with.
How'd that work out?
2016 happened.
It was recommended by the Bass Girls, but it is on my reading list.
I have other things going on at the moment.
So, let's go to the next one.
In the not-too-distant future, the world went completely retarded.
Woke ideology and degeneracy took over the lives of 40 million people around the world.
People became so f***ing dumb they couldn't define what a woman is.
Eventually, people got so sick of the cringe s*** that they decided to nuke themselves and replace them with sexbots.
Oh, hello!
What a twist!
I wasn't seeing that coming.
Let's go to the next one.
If you're still feeling the need for speed after watching Harry's interview with a fighter pilot, I highly recommend picking up a copy of Robin Old Todd's autobiography.
This is the man that Carl was talking about, who lives and thrives in combat.
He pulled strings to be sent to the European Theatre in World War II and broke regulations to be sent to Vietnam on purpose.
There, he almost became the first American ace of the war, but refused to shoot down his fifth maybe after being told that he would be sent home on a publicity tour, instead giving credit to his wingman for additional kills.
Yes, Callum, there's an audiobook, and it is excellent.
Alright.
Yeah, sounds really interesting.
Well, this weekend will mark one full year of being a gold-tier subscriber, since I got it right before my birthday last year.
You guys do really good work, and I will certainly be continuing my subscription.
So on to the question.
I got a DNA test recently, and I am a bunch of different things.
No more than a quarter to a third of really any kind of nationality.
So my question is, what percentage do you think someone needs to be for them to consider it really part of their heritage?
Like, is it 5%, 20%, 50%?
Like, what are your thoughts on that?
You taking the one-drop rule here?
I don't know, man.
That's such a massive and complicated question that I have not thought about before, so I wouldn't really be able to give you much of an answer.
Although I need to take a DNA test myself, because I'd be very interested in finding out.
Have you ever taken a DNA test?
No, but I'm thinking one-sixth is probably enough.
I'd say that's probably a fair cut-off point.
One grandparent, having that background, probably means you've got heritage from there.
Oh, that's an eighth, not a sixth, sorry, yeah.
So, I think that's fair.
Yeah, yeah, I mean, because grandparents' direct relation and everything, and plus you're likely to interact with your grandparents, obviously, so you can transmit whatever culture...
Yeah, that kind of makes sense.
I like that.
It's a tough question, isn't it?
But, I suppose.
And also, I mean, there's other factors as well.
Like your name is obviously part of what you are, regardless of what you feel about it.
Let's go to the next one.
Truth exists and does not change.
There is no progress beyond the material concerns of industry, what they now call science and technology.
Progressivism is a lie.
Nothing is forwards or backwards.
That is only up and down.
Right is good and true.
Left is the opposite.
Alright, big creptick.
Interesting though.
Next one.
Get on my level, c***s.
Base Dave, that was hilarious.
I loved it.
And normally I would concede, but...
Making culture, vehicle guns.
And of course...
Okay, that's my favourite meme.
I win.
Okay.
That hammer has been thrown down!
I'm sure Base State will have a meme in response.
Let's go to the next one.
Harry, I'm on a level with you.
You ran so far and so fast away from the so-called righteous cause myth of the North being moral superior and all that, and you ran straight into the brick wall of the lost cause myth of the South just being freedom-loving hillbillies who didn't want to hurt no one.
Again, like Baron von Warhawk said, leave the history to Carl and Bo.
No, I don't think I actually did run into that at all.
I think if it came across that way, I may have just messed up a little bit in some of the way I was presenting the information, but I don't think I was trying to present the Southerners as just freedom-loving hicks, just trying to get their way...
Yeah, who didn't do nothing wrong.
I made it very clear that I'm not supporting, you know, the way of life that they were trying to protect or anything.
Obviously, there's no way I think that they were the moral side, but I don't think either side was the moral side.
So I'm not trying to push the Southerners were just doing nothing wrong.
But thank you for your feedback, anyway.
I wasn't involved, so I don't know what to say.
Well, it was directed.
Yeah, but I was just going to say, I don't know what I'm allowed to say, but Carl has found a whole bunch of interviews with former slaves just before they died, and there are some interesting interviews, that's for sure.
There are some very interesting takes from the former slaves.
I would highly recommend listening to the slaves themselves for their first-hand experience, because I think that is definitely valuable.
Let's go to the next one.
Please permit me one more plug for Independence Day of my essay on the political message of Squid Game.
Squid Game is, after all, a warning from South Korea to us here in the West to stay independent from China.
It's posted here for free at T-U-R-A-J dot Substack dot com.
I've also made free the first part of my extended essay on the Kyle Rittenhouse trial and the coming split of liberals away from progressives.
Fair play.
That sounds interesting.
I might check that out.
You pay for the sponsors.
I've watched Squid Game, and I did not get the message that you're saying of it being a warning against getting too involved in China.
But I'd be very interested to see your explanation of that, because most of what I saw people going, oh, it's just anti-capitalist.
And it's like, yeah, but it's also not very good at being anti-capitalist.
list i did find it an enjoyable show though i haven't watched it but i do know that uh debate is obviously very close to the south koreans because they're after the collapse of the north and south koreans made loads of business ties with the chinese thinking and they recognize south korea so things look like the right direction and they might be able to coerce the north into unification and then we can end this nonsense that's going on and instead like the chinese obviously need the north koreans and then the south korean government oh wait they're both commies Wait a second here.
This is a bad idea.
They're trying to reel themselves back from this relationship.
Yeah, I might check that out.
Like I say, I'm interested to see your take on how Squid Game is allegorical to that.
Let's go to the next one.
Tony D and Little Joe with another legend of the pines from Weird New Jersey Magazine comes the story of the Phantom of Phalanx Road in Colts Neck, New Jersey.
Two friends back in 2006 had stopped their car along the side of a road which was known for people getting hit by cars and they were searching on the floor for something they had dropped and when they sat back up there was a woman standing next to the car just staring at them.
She didn't talk, she didn't respond, and the driver got creeped out and started to drive away.
They called the police, but there was no record of any accident or any cars breaking down.
There was just this strange woman on a lonely road, staring and staring.
Give her a citation then.
Go home, wench!
Let's go to the next one.
I've been catching up on some of Ben Shapiro's videos and I watched his interview with Matt Taibbi.
I was happily impressed that the two from fundamentally different sides can sit down comfortably, especially being legacy media.
That being in mind, are there any reporters from our legacy media in the UK you'd quite happily sit down and interview?
Maybe get something quite interesting out of them.
Yeah, I mean, there are a few that come to mind.
I mean, the obvious most famous one is probably John Sweeney.
I mean, the whole deal he had with Mr.
Robinson and the BBC and the fact that he lost his job and then spends his time talking about Russia and it's just like...
Like, I'd love to ask him, like, you know, what do you think you were going to do?
Because there's the tape of him asking Lucy Brown if we could make up a sexual thing against Robinson.
It's just like...
Why did you think this would work?
Like, surely you knew this is a joke.
And also, he criticizes the Russian government for being corrupt and engaging in smear campaigns against activists.
It's like...
You worked for the BBC to smear...
It's transparently painful for me, but I don't think he'd do it.
Other than that, I don't know...
I mean, probably Kathy Eubens would be a funny one.
Sorry, has the television gone off?
No, it's just the next one.
I'm trying to think who else in the legacy media would talk to who might be interesting.
You know, the major hitters.
I mean, there are a few.
I mean, Anna Breeze is an interesting lady who left all that and is now, you know, making her own stuff and just subverting the media, so that's good.
Good question.
Good question.
Go to the next one.
So, Roe v.
Wade has been repealed and I just wanted to tell you that I'm so angry.
I'm just so angry.
I'm so...
I'm so angry!
I'm so angry I could kill a baby!
I'm gonna push my finger deep inside your sphincter.
Bear with me whilst I linger and check your cancer-free.
Do you want to sell that jingle to Dr.
Surgery?
Thanks, John!
I shared the first part of that on Twitter the other day when I saw it posted.
I did see that last part, though.
You might have snuck that in just for us.
Just like the doctor.
Anyway, on the written comments, she's black, y'all.
So, Lord Nerevo says, I don't want to hear a peep out of the left about how free speech advocates just want to say nuclear.
After all, this Clarence Thomas business.
It seems the Dems haven't changed as much as they'd like to think since the 1860s.
Yeah, I also love when you ever get a, you know, you say Cantor Science goes and gives a speech, and the endless comments come, which is like, they only like you because you're a black woman.
Does that not disprove all of the things you say about right-wingers?
It's, you know, just so transparent.
No, like, she's got interesting things to say, but then, you know, you guys literally had a Supreme Court justice and you were just like, look, black woman.
Me and her.
Make sure to get the photo!
Come on!
Itchy of Cajada says, what is truly pathetic in this whole situation is that her judicial qualifications and rulings will never matter for her entire future on Supreme Court.
She is a judge, diversity hire, and only that.
Yeah.
And also, she's going to have to rule in that case, as I said, on whether or not diversity hiring will be made illegal.
Which, um...
You're going to have to hold the whole thing out.
Anyway, 312 says, What hubris.
Yeah.
So do you need permission anyway?
Surely you're built with that, if you're a leftist.
Like, it's something you unleash within yourself, surely.
Anyway, Omar Awad says, it goes, sorry, it sounds like the left are trying to collect black people, like trading cards.
You got the black female judge, but do you have the shiny ultra mega rare limited edition?
No, they certainly don't.
Ooh, the Supreme Court judge, ooh.
I remember BBC had, they were called before Parliament to answer for the fact they were a huge waste of cash.
And one of the questions was about diversity and inclusion, and the Director General of the BBC answered by saying, well, you know, we now have two black people on the Executive Board, so I've achieved my target.
Eh, eh, eh, wink, wink.
And no one picked up on this, but I just imagine, like, he's there, like, I've achieved my target.
Like, what do you mean?
Why do you have a target?
Only two black people.
Now I've got two black people.
I can say the end with wherever I want!
Ridiculous.
See, you get one half of the pass for every black person you have, so I've got the complete set now.
Yeah, literally collecting them.
The BBC were literally doing that.
Let's go to the less money, more problems.
Ross Diggle says, with fuel, I had to use the E5, which was regular unleaded until August the other month.
I noticed I did 60 miles more.
I thought I'd try and replace it again as it only costs an extra £3.50.
Again, 60 miles more.
Turns out replacing petrol with 10% ethanol over 5% ethanol isn't as good for the environment as the government says.
Does make you have to fill up more often, which helps their coffers, though.
Is this what you pointed out, John, that you were saying that if you go with the premium stuff, it actually gets you more mileage?
Well, I might have to try that out in that case.
Thank you very much.
Because I was a bit, you know, John, you can be a bit sneaky.
I was a bit dubious when he tells me stuff.
John knows his mathematics, no?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Itachi of Kanoa says, how about the wealthy politicians and elites donate their own monies for foreign aid instead of taxpayer money?
Put their virtue signaling wallets where their mouths are.
Don't we all know that Nancy Pelosi has more than enough money to go around?
Yeah, if the elites put their money together, they got way more than 50 billion.
No.
And you know that that's true.
Razak was right, says, I know people who work in bars and strip clubs.
Business is down bad.
The recession has been here since April.
I mean, fair play.
That's absolutely right.
I'm glad I don't work in those sorts of businesses right now like I used to because they are probably getting rid of staff as quickly as possible to try and make up costs.
Freewill says that, uh, given that big medical corporations were most likely responsible for the start of this mess, COVID, and given that big tech corporations made tons of cash during the lockdowns whilst thousands of people lost their business and jobs, and given that the green taxes and shutdown of gas supplies have led to much higher energy bills, which are bankrupting people, I have no problem with taxing the World Economic Forum Great Reset billionaire class to offset the reverses suffered by the rest of us.
That's not a bad idea, actually.
You know what?
Yeah.
Tax the rich, but only tax the ones that have shown up at the World Economic Forum.
There you go.
Extra tax bracket.
There you go.
That's the new solution.
Maybe tax isn't always theft.
We can do some ethical taxing here.
Bleach Demon says the leftist West's vested interest in fighting Putin's Russia seems to stem from Putin's hardline nationalism with the US State Department's paper on the breakup of Russia for the sake of globalism paints this in vivid colours.
I might need to check that out if it's literally just saying we need to break up Russia because they stand against globalism.
Because that would really just say it all, wouldn't it?
And Robert Longshore says if Putin was a woman, she would have just nuked Ukraine from orbit to prove she was one of the boys.
Ha ha.
One of the boys!
Yeah, do you want to go to your comments again?
Sure, on the tragedy of Bodega Bro.
I do feel bad for that guy.
Same, same.
He seems like a nice guy in all the videos that I've seen.
He seems like he's just going about his day.
So Daniela says the irony of these people to demand the farm boy to adapt to the culture of the queers, and yet I bet they don't say that of illegals.
Good point.
Transparent.
Like, mate.
How many Muslims work at that company?
I love Lord Nerevar's suggestion here.
Bodega Bro should stay in the Bronx and run against AOC in the next election.
Four more years of Bodega Bro!
That would be funny.
Rose Gonella says, When we moved to California, moved from California, sorry, to Alabama, two years ago and my husband was walking around Huntsville, he posted on Facebook, They call this a city?
Where's all the garbage?
Where's all the homeless people?
Where are the muggers?
Dealers and whores.
Yeah, really.
That's the thing.
I'm sorry, but it's so true.
The cities really are some kind of hive cities at these points.
Shaker Silver says, This bug man clearly cares about integration with woke culture when this filthy commoner enters their neoliberal hellhole and in no other circumstances.
Like, would he?
Free Will says, I thought New York is a police-defunded socialist paradise.
I mean, judging by the videos, it looks like one.
Yeah.
I mean, that's the thing as well.
I was speaking to David Rearboy over dinner, and he mentioned the fact that he was in Hungary, and he was talking to these young people, and they were anti-Orban, so anti-right-wing party that's in charge, right?
And they're talking about the fact that he's evil for this, he's evil for that, and he says to them, okay, do you want to go to the United States and study university there, then?
And they instantly responded, instantly, no.
Well, why?
Have you seen them?
Even, like, Eastern European leftists are, like, Western leftists.
No, thank you.
They're actually mad.
And then he mentioned, well, would you like to go visit New York at least?
I mean, you know, not going to university, but go see these cities.
Again, no.
Not interested.
And it certainly is true.
I mean, nobody thinks of these cities and thinks anything like they used to.
Yeah, nobody sees them as desirable destinations.
I mean, that's people outside the United States.
Yeah, everyone who's not even there can tell that these places are...
I mean, the only people who seem to like New York are people who have lived in New York for too long, and I only assume have Stockholm Syndrome of the place now.
But anyway, we're out of time, so just to end it off, because if you want more from us, lowseers.com, of course, to subscribe, get access to that.
Otherwise, we'll be back at 3.30.
Yeah, yeah, you will.
Yeah, you will.
So we'll be back at 3.30 for the livestream.
All right, see you then.
