Time Text
Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 30th of August 2022.
I'm I'm joined by Carl.
Hello.
And today we're going to be talking about, uh, no, in real life.
Of course, from the, uh, goes to Kiev there.
Uh, Netflix's minoritarian civil war.
And Trump, once again, did nothing wrong.
As usual.
But otherwise, let's, uh, learn about Samuel Hayati.
So I had to talk about the no in real life meme because it actually hits on the current dialectic of the culture war as it stands right now.
And it's actually remarkable how effectively Sam Hyde cuts to the quick of the issue and moves the conversation forward.
And he's done an amazing job here.
So I know you covered it yesterday because I was watching and I really enjoyed the coverage.
But there was something that underlies it that really...
I couldn't get out of my mind, because I kept seeing people, of course, posting the known real life meme, and it was like, yeah, no, that's a great point.
This has exposed a kind of fracture in the way that we think, and I think is worth talking about.
And I'm going to couch this around the article I wrote about a conservative definition of woman, because woman is, of course, a thick concept.
And so I've spent a lot of time, because it was inspired by Matt Walsh saying, well, what is a woman?
And everyone keeps saying, well, adult, human, female.
It's like, Yeah, that's the essential definition of what a woman is.
But actually, I think the concept of woman has multiple layers in the same way that the concept of man does.
And so I think that it has the essential aspect, the relational aspect, which is how we operate in society.
The normative aspect, which is the moral instruction that you have for one another, and then the aesthetic aspect, which is how it should look, how it should feel.
And, of course, man has the same.
Now, by the end of this, I hope I will have shown that Sam Hyde is essentially critiquing Hassan Piker for occupying the non-essential aspects of being a man.
This is what this all boils down to.
Hassan Piker is wearing the cosmetics of a man.
But not doing the thing a man does.
And at bottom, the very essential nature and purpose of a man is violence.
That's what Sam Hyde is hitting on.
So let's begin with Sam Hyde's build-up to the fight.
This is legitimately hilarious.
This is of course interviews before his big match.
And let's play the first clip.
I'm fine, lad.
Don't worry about me.
Worry about my opponent August 27th.
What's going to happen?
You're going to see something.
You're going to see a reckoning that's been in the works since Black 47.
When the Irish famine hit and it killed millions of people and the English sat back and did nothing and their corn mill owners and their sausage factory tycoons did nothing to help the Irish people.
I'm going to get revenge.
Alright, well that sounds pretty good then.
Talk to me about your opponent.
What do you know about him?
Why do you decide to fight him?
Oh, Tim, he's a good man.
He's got a good heart.
He'll be okay.
Don't worry about him.
Right, so this is about revenge on the English for the Irish Famine.
Not about his opponent, which is legitimately hilarious.
But why does he have a problem with Hasan Piker?
Now, we play this clip, just in case you missed it.
Well, there are reasons.
Let's play the next one.
If you get the picture of Saturday night, would you like to fight again?
Oh, there's only one fight on my radar, laddie.
And you know who that is?
Hasan Piker!
I don't even know who that is.
Oh, he's a dirty, dirty man.
He needs to be punished.
Punished!
With Irish fury!
What makes him dirty?
Is he not a barf or something?
Well, he's Turkish, for one.
Okay.
Anything else?
Well, it starts there and it gets quite a long list.
We'll get to that later.
Okay.
Alright, that's pretty good, Sam.
I think I'll wrap this up, mate.
Thank you, mate.
Thank you a lot.
Thank you.
Final words before the fight.
Final words, final words.
Final words.
Be nice to your mum.
Best final words.
So, the fight's not about Tim.
Tim's a lovely guy.
Good man, good heart.
This is about taking revenge on the English for Ireland.
Also, Hasan Piker's a Turk, and that's basically every amount of condemnation that Sam Hyde has for him.
That's enough.
Yeah, it just gets worse from there.
He did another interview about why he's obsessed with Hasan Piker.
There's a fella that I know you want very much.
That's a fella by the name of Hasan Piker.
Are you gonna get that fight?
Oh, I will if I have to go to Hollywood.
Myself and me lonesome on me little moped.
I'll go out there and kiss him, darn it.
You'll see.
I'll be out there committing a crime and stalking him because I'm gay and I'm obsessed with him.
I find this obsession fascinating because, again, he does go on to explain it more, but there's...
It's all about this one thing, right?
He wants to fight Hasan Piker.
That's it.
That's it.
He is, of course, the world's greatest Irishman.
Were you confused when I said I was the greatest Irishman in the past 2,000 years?
You could doubt the veracity of that!
The Candyman does not truck in lie, nor fib, nor tall tale!
There's been a lot of good Irishmen, to be fair.
Name one!
Name one!
He's got me there.
That's right, I'm an Irish nationalist.
And so let's actually talk about the fight.
So what's the fight?
The fight's about 10 minutes long now.
You might think, well, only 10 minutes long.
A, these aren't professional boxers, right?
But B, that's a long time to be throwing punches.
Like, a really long time.
If you're in any doubt, go down to your local gym, get the punch bag, and just start hitting it.
And after about 30 seconds, you're going to be dripping with sweat.
And after about two minutes, you'll collapse.
So we'll go through the fight.
Now, Sam Hyde is kind of famous, actually.
Having a giant roundhouse punch, right?
A massive right hook.
And you put out videos of him, you know, with the guy putting this thing up, and then he just throws his way into it, and it's a wallop.
Almighty wallop.
Terrifying.
And it's like, right, okay.
But that doesn't actually work in real life, because, of course, your opponent is moving.
Let's watch the first clip.
Got to imagine how gassed up they are.
Oh, clipped him coming in.
Overcommitment there from Sam Hyde.
This is three rounds, fighting nine minutes, possibly.
I don't think we're going that long, man.
That's interesting, because the commentators are obviously professional boxing commentators, and these are not professional boxers.
But, as they point out, you can see, they're both massive dudes.
Like, Sam Hyde is, like, 6'5", and this other guy must be, like, 6'3", or 6'2", or something.
And look at the size of these dudes.
They are huge, right?
And so, like, you would expect just massive punching.
That's what Sam tried.
But the guys went under it and then clipped him, right?
Doesn't work in real life.
And Hyde obviously learns from this because he decides to fall back.
And this is probably the best tactic.
He basically boxes like Homer Simpson.
Have you seen the Simpsons episode where he just takes punches until the opponent is exhausted, then poof.
Well, that was basically this fight for Sam Hyde, right?
It's a brilliant strategy.
It's a brilliant strategy, especially if you're built like Sam Hyde, who actually does look like he's kind of just made out...
He's just a giant sack of potatoes that the opponent has to now wear himself out on, which is what he does.
Let's watch.
It's that overhand right from I.M. Thompson.
It has not scored yet.
He needs to mix up his offense.
He's looking for it, but Sam Hyde isn't really throwing a lot, and when he is, he's quite slow, which obviously we'd expect for a big man, but sometimes big men have those fast-switch fireballs.
He's he's just trying to walk him down Well I am Thompson has to close the distance if he wants to land that right and Nice one.
Nice right hand there by Sam Hyde.
As you'd expect, Sam Haidt has a chin on him.
I mean, he's got a head as big as a house.
He's got a concrete block for a chin.
It seems to be true, but as you can see, Hyde is just taking the blows, right?
You can see the energy economy there, right?
So he jabs the guy, throws this massive right hook, but it hits Hyde's shoulder.
I mean, okay, massive shoulder, you know, what's the point?
You could hit that all day and do nothing to Hyde, right?
Doubtless same for the other guy, you know, and Hyde's not throwing a lot in the early stages, which is really smart because his opponent is really going for it.
And so it carries on.
Let's go to the clip three.
This is taking it back to the early days of influencer boxing in terms of technique.
And that's going to happen when you get two big men in there, you know?
They're not going to be able to do what we've just seen in the last fight.
They're too muscle-bound, you know?
They're not made for boxing, but that's what makes this great.
I don't think they were playing around when they were posting videos of themselves on social media drinking beer though, Kim.
I think that was true.
But notice again, you can see it very clearly there.
Hyde essentially triggers him out and then he, oh, massive blow, but it doesn't really do anything to Hyde.
He's hitting him in, like, non-vital areas, right?
But the amount of effort it gets Hyde to, like, get him to expend twice the effort in a massive throw, like, doesn't work.
And so, by about seven minutes in, and seven minutes is a long time in a boxing match, you can see that Thompson is just staggering on his feet from all of this expended energy.
Let's go for the next one.
We'll go all the way.
You're absolutely right, but now we're starting to see it from Sam Hyde.
Hyde has that.
He's just not going to it enough.
There you go.
There it is again.
There you go.
And that's where I.M. Thompson needs to be.
He needs to be inside.
He's the smaller guy with the shorter reach.
This is becoming a brawl!
Ladies and gentlemen!
The height is hurting Thompson now.
I think Sam sensed that he's on wobbly legs, exhausted.
And you can see it in the guy moving, right?
You're very quiet about this.
I don't have much to say because I don't know much about boxing.
No, I don't, but just look at them.
Look at the way they're moving.
That's the thing.
I'm not a boxing analyst or anything like that, but I can see this clear as day.
And so Hyde's been obviously just maintaining his own stamina as long as he can.
And you can see the other guy, he's just losing it, right?
And so this is the end of the fight.
Boy, this referee is extremely generous.
We're coming here to watch guys get their heads knocked off ref.
Get out of the way!
Oh, that's a bad one.
That is a bad one.
Oh, and he's on...
He's on wobbly legs now, Thompson.
Hyde's got the measure of him now.
It's all over.
There it is.
A mercy stoppage.
Just as Sam Hyde was getting his flow, it's over.
Congratulations to the big boy from California.
You can see it, and the guy's literally flailing arm.
There's no force anymore.
He's just getting his arm up.
But I've got to give it to Ian Thompson, man.
There is no shame that comes out of this boxing match.
This is just glory for both of them.
Because even if you lose, it's like, okay, would you fight Sam Hyde?
No, exactly.
Of course you wouldn't.
Right, so he did.
And afterwards, Hasan, Hasan, Sam Hyde actually manages to kind of stay in character for, of course, the now famous ending call-out, which we may as well watch because it's hilarious.
You got anyone you want to call out in the heavyweight division?
Oh, you know it, lad.
You know that, Hasan Piker!
I'm coming to kill you in Los Angeles at your house!
Or in the ring?
No!
In real life!
I'm going to stalk him and become obsessed with him!
And wear his makeup!
And his dresses!
And use his skin as a coat!
Like the ancient Irish did!
Well, that's your winner!
Sam!
Hey!
That's the best line.
That's your winner.
Yeah.
But I love the word, in the rings, no!
In real life!
You know, as in, everyone thinks everything that everyone does is phony.
All of these, like, internet death threats, all of this tough talk, you know, none of it is backed up by what actually, as Jordan Pearson points out, underlies all male interactions, and that is Violence.
The actual threat of violence.
And you can see the sort of...
No, of course I mean it in real life.
You know, A, this is the bit.
Because this is the joke he's making, obviously.
It's pointing out that actually, whenever anyone talks tough about anything, nobody really means it.
Right?
And that's what he's trying to put across.
The joke is that, no, I really mean this.
I'm going to go to his house.
I'm going to go do this crazy stuff.
That's funny.
Because no one takes this seriously.
And of course, just to be clear, he couldn't have picked a more deserving...
Target, frankly.
Hasan Piker is just a communist...
I'm not even going to swear, but you know what I mean.
America deserves 9-11.
Punch Nazis.
Oh, in Minecraft.
Because this is the way that Hasan Piker gets around being deplatformed for calling for violence.
He goes, oh, well, we should punch Nazis in Minecraft.
Because it's okay to say to do it in a video game because of course it's not real.
And this is why Sam Hyde is taking this tack.
It's like, no, in real life.
In real life.
This is real and authentic and has to happen.
And so we've got Hassan's reaction.
Hassan, to his credit, Hassan had previously turned down Sam Hyde's challenge going, no, he'll beat my ass.
It's like, yeah, maybe.
Maybe.
No, certainly.
Maybe.
But, that's not so bad, actually.
Ian Thompson walked away with it.
With his head held high.
You know?
No one's going, "Oh, that Ian Thompson's, what a pussy, what a wuss." No one's saying that about them.
But they are saying about Hassan after he decides to ban people from his chat from even bringing this up.
Like an absolute wonder.
Let's watch.
Dude, if you have...
If you see a mentally ill Nazi, okay, on the internet, be like, "I'm gonna kill Hassan Piker." I'm going to come to his house and murder him.
And you go, oh, this is some information that he should probably watch.
Like, he should watch and address this.
Okay?
Then, honestly, just don't post.
And get the f*** out of the community.
You absolute woman.
That's what this is about, you absolute phony wuss.
Like, all of the videos Piker has put out, which we'll get to in a minute, just insufferable, right?
And so this is not, of course, the first time that Sam Hyde has challenged Hasan Piker.
And it's not about his state.
It's not about money.
This is what it's about.
But Hasan, you're going to fight me.
You are going to fight me one way or another.
I don't care if I have to break into that nice house of yours.
You're going to fight me, son.
This fuckin' guy, this donair meat-shaven, cologne-wearing...
Where did he get his jewelry from?
Claire's, etc?
It's not that it's challenging gender norms, it's that you have no swag.
Okay?
I could paint my nails...
If I painted my nails and wore women's jewelry, I would still have swag.
You don't have swag.
You have...
Gwag.
You don't have swag, that's what it is.
You think, you think, people don't like the way I look because it's challenging gender norms, because I'm wearing a, I'm wearing a seven-year-old girl's necklace from the Barbie kit, and I have my nails painted.
No, dude!
You could, I'm sure there's a way you could hypothetically rock women's jewelry and look cool.
Joey doesn't.
But you don't look cool!
You look like a fucking clown.
You look like a herb.
Either point?
It's because you are inauthentic and unmanly.
You are there, pampered, perfumed, you know, dressed up for nines, blah, blah, blah.
And Hasan goes and posts pictures, videos like this on his social media all the time.
I mean, like, if we can just get back to the one where he's punting, I mean, look at these kicks.
Look at, what are you doing, right?
But this, I swear to God, I play fight with my seven-year-old with more vigor than that.
I'm not even joking.
Hassan is basically pulling his punches on the actual bloody pads, right?
But the point that I'm making is that Hassan is posting this to try and appear manly.
That's the point.
You wouldn't post this unless you wanted to, oh, look, I'm a big, strong man.
It's like, okay, but you're not.
Yeah, but in his community, he probably is, compared to everyone around him, I'll be honest.
Well, that says a lot about his community, and it speaks to the deep inauthenticity of it.
Like, look, I don't just talk about...
Learning to kick.
I'm trying to learn to kick.
Yeah, and that's why I went through the actual fight as well, because you can see that Sam Hyde actually went through it, right?
This is as stage-managed as you like.
This is Sasan Piker being as comfortable and unput out as humanly possible, right?
Sam Hyde is saying, well, look, actually, the real deal is actually a challenge, but you overcome whether you win or lose, right?
Sorry.
I just imagine the female version of this.
You know how there's Hollywood women who have got nothing to do, so they make crappy jewellery and then sell it on Etsy or something, right?
And no one buys it, because it's nonsense.
I just imagine the De Beers company turning out, just being like, get real.
Get some child mining going.
Get your diamonds.
Quite possibly.
But anyway, so, you know, Hasan Parker was like, no, I'm a cuckold.
I can't possibly do that, even though I post about being a big shot on social media.
And so Sam Hyde was like, well look, fight me or I'll quit boxing.
That's an interesting challenge, isn't it?
It's an interesting way of upping the ante, because of course, why wouldn't Hassan just say, deal?
Why do you think?
Because he gets ass beat.
By who?
Well, Sam Hyde.
No, no, no, no.
Sam says he'll quit boxing if Hassan does not fight him.
I don't get your point.
Do you not?
I'm not following.
Well, no, no, that's literally, he will quit YouTube boxing if Hasan Piker turns him down.
Do you not see that, the power in that?
That's a very powerful statement.
Because now the onus is on Hasan Piker to be a man, and he actually has the future of Sam Hyde's career as a boxer in the palm of his hand.
Now, of course, you would say, well, hang on a second, why does any of that matter?
Of course, Hasan Piker's going to go, well, I'm not going to do it.
Ha ha, I've ruined you.
But that also ruins something about Hasan.
Like, he has unmanned himself by turning this down and inflicting this on Sam Hyde.
Sure, but that's already happened.
And also, Sam Hyde doesn't have a boxing career.
He's an influencer.
He does have a boxing career.
We just saw him box.
That's not the same thing.
I mean, iDubbbz explained this when he announced all of the fights.
He was like, you know, there's the celebrity boxing, and then once they can box, it's not interesting.
Yeah, of course.
You're just a boxer.
Yeah, of course.
That's the point.
Yes.
As the commentators were pointing out, it was great.
You should watch the full thing.
The commentary from the commentators is like, this is hilarious.
But the point is, he's shown that Piker is actually an inauthentic unmanly grifter, because he should be defending his own honour, and the point being, Hasan has no honour.
All of this is cosmetic to Hasan.
And that's the really interesting thing about what Sam Hyde has done here.
You know, the internet death threats and stuff, they're all nonsense, and everyone knows they're nonsense, which is why, you know, knowing real life became such a resonant meme.
But the thing is, there was one particular interview that I actually thought was really, really clever, really good, and it shows you that Sam Hyde is pushing the button on purpose, right?
Because you would think, normally, saying, I'm going to come to your house and kill you in front of thousands of people, we're getting in trouble, right?
Not in America.
This was in England.
Oh.
Extradite him, I guess.
But the point is, it's obviously not real, right?
Because Sam Hyde is pushing a moral point in a very, very funny way.
Let's watch this last clip.
Listen, man, that was a more difficult match maybe than you had anticipated.
I had no fucking idea what a real fight was like, to be honest with you, sir.
I thought it would be all rainbows and candy canes and corn.
But it fucking was crazy!
What was the toughest part of the night?
Just some stamina.
Just keeping my, uh, not blowing through my stamina.
Are you ready to fight again?
When are we gonna see you in the ring?
No.
Fuck no.
Fuck that.
Fuck you.
I'm outta here.
I'm outta here, Rahim.
That's the sort of real response about it.
There's authenticity there.
And Hasan will never have that.
Everything he does will be from the pampered luxury conditioning of his Bel Air mansion, wherever he lives, you know, wearing his perfume and his fancy clothes and grifting saps as he bans them from his chat.
That's going to be Hasan Piker.
But Sam Hyde has actually stepped up, gone through the ringer, and actually proven himself to be a man.
He is an absolute mad lad and authentic man.
He's an absolute chad, man.
You can't deny it.
It's just like, when we covered yesterday, I loved the bit where he's training Epic Meal Time for his fight, and then he just gets Epic Meal Time to go to the worst hotel motel.
It's got condoms on the weights in the gym, so he just goes to the gym there.
And he's like, yeah, meet me in the middle of this random car park at midnight.
He's just, okay, like, you're actually some kind of lunatic, but that was also genuine.
Like, Epid Mealtime was saying, yeah, no, I was meeting the real Sam Hyde.
Like, he is like that in real life.
I can believe it.
Let's move on to Netflix's Minoritarian Civil War.
So Netflix, France, has decided to put out a trailer for a new movie that's coming up, which is left-wing porn for We Want a Race War in France, and this time the minorities are going to win.
What do you mean this time?
As if 500 years ago the French were like, right, we're going to put the screws to the non-French...
It's porn.
Like, it's just left-wing porn.
So I thought we'd go through it, but before we get there, I just have to explain, of course, the ideological aspects of this.
So we'll start off just by mentioning a plug, of course, being the podcast we did on the origins of intersectionality, because that will explain effectively all of this as to why they think and the way they do in terms of tactics, for sure.
It's because they are coalescing the minorities into one group, right?
This is going to be Arabs and Africans fighting French.
Because, I mean, if there's one group of people who should have no complaints about the Arabs, it's definitely the Africans, right?
What have the Arabs ever done to the Africans apart from enslaved them and castrated them for thousands of years?
There's also the obvious point that leftists would also love, like, the sexual minorities to join in the coalition, but a lot of whack-a-ba probably not.
But we'll get to the next one here, because there's this other article I saw popping up, and it just explains some of this as well in tragic detail, from the World Economic Forum, of course.
This is in 2019.
It's a little while ago, but I can't believe we missed this, because it's just really funny.
Nothing else.
They're saying to this person that they had a luncheon with her family at an event at the World Economic Forum, and they started sharing the fact that they had a 13-year-old transgender daughter they'd been parenting.
They say Jordan has known for a long time that she is a girl.
Though she was assigned to be male sex when she was born, she feels valid as a girl by doctors, therapists, and school officials in our family.
For all that's worth.
So that's okay, right?
So you're being pushed in this direction.
All the cult leaders agree that you're part of the cult.
Oh, brilliant.
Yeah, in the same way this left-wing propaganda we're about to watch is also going to be, in the same way, pushing you that way.
But she says, of course, my other 15-year-old daughter, her identity is gender expansive.
You know, it's just...
I know it's a meme at this point.
You've got one transgender daughter.
Tell me about the other one.
You know.
We know you've got another one that you've also just done this to.
And they've got to say that these young women are the workforce of our future.
They are brave.
They are smart.
We're enslaving the women now.
They are resilient and super funny, my guys.
Oh my god.
We men will be putting up our feet as the women slave away in the mines.
Yeah, and the obvious perception being that the sexual minorities will unify in some kind of class consciousness and take over the entire society.
I mean, they literally go on to write, the LGBTI workforce of the future has superpowers.
I mean, there's actually a headline there.
It's like putting children in the mines!
But don't worry, they've got superpowers because they're gay.
What are those superpowers?
Gen Zers will not just be digital natives.
Through their ability to bridge the physical and digital world seamlessly, they will be digital collaborators.
So they'll be in the digital sweat mines, right?
Don't know how to use WhatsApp.
That's a superpower.
Gen Z will also be the most diverse generation.
48% of them are racial or ethnic minorities.
That says a lot, doesn't it?
Ignoring that aspect.
Accidental mask reveal.
Her argument of face value, which is they have brown skin, so that's a superpower.
Okay.
Yep.
They will be gender-inclusive as well.
A recent Pew Research Center report has found that 35% of Gen Zers know someone with a personality who uses gender-neutral pronouns, e.g.
they.
And 59% said that online forums of profiles that ask about a person's gender should include options other than male or female.
Sorry, right.
So I don't think mentally ill is also a superpower.
Yeah.
So it's just failure upon failure of what actually you're advocating for here.
Being confused about what a man or a woman is as a superpower.
Yeah, and they go on to say, they also have great emotional skills.
The battles that my daughter and LGBTQI youth have had to fight have already given them resilience needed to excel in the workforce.
Could you think of a group of people you think of as less resilient?
No, obviously not.
I mean, there probably hasn't been a less resilient group of people in all of human history.
But I just can't help but sit the thing out.
Aren't you the World Economic Forum?
What the hell is this?
I've seen people like, oh, the World Economic Forum isn't woke, is it?
It's like, obviously it's woke.
Congenitally, intrinsically woke.
And they don't even understand why you wouldn't be woke.
Like, this is the plan for the future, which is to have, as the intersectionals put it, taking the minorities and putting them in the precision of supremacy.
I think this example, it's sexual minorities, as she literally lists of, like, oh, the future workforce...
This article is trash.
You might wonder where the hell I brought it up.
It was to make the point that obviously things like this are just state propaganda about why a minoritarian society would have benefits.
When you get to them actually listing the benefits, they don't have any other than it would be minoritarian.
Also, it would be good for the World Economic Forum to have you all broken down into competing categories in the new paradigm.
Like, you can't actually overthrow intersectionality if you feel that your status in the world is built on intersectionality, and therefore we, the world controllers, are going to have you exactly where we want you forever.
Yeah.
Just the fact, though, that this group, this coalition, them being in charge, it will have benefits, and then the listed benefits are that, well, they would be a new group.
That's entirely it, which they can then use to their advantage.
And you get this every day.
This isn't 2019.
If we go to the next one, I mean, this one just came out, I think it's this year.
Like, there you have it, January this year, from Oxford University.
Little know-nothing institution.
They argue in here that ethnically diverse companies are 33% more likely to have an above-average profitability.
Who believes them?
33% more likely.
Show of salutes in the chat for who believes that, but I can't imagine there'll be many, if any.
They say in here, in short, a diverse workplace is a future-proofed workplace.
Right.
Okay.
So that's how you're phrasing this.
And those racists who keep saying the word replacement over and over are just racists and are making no points that you would agree with.
Keep that in mind just before we watch the propaganda, but there's also a line in here that I found funny enough that I think I should include it.
They list as a title, Braver New World.
Mask off moments keep coming.
Our Oxford Smart Space episode on diversity highlights maximising the agility businesses will need to rise to the battle against climate change.
Which, what is that sentence?
Become more diverse to fight climate change.
I mean, there's just nothing there.
It's almost incoherent dribble.
They think that businesses need to be agile to cope with continual technological changes, right?
Which, I mean, is probably true.
But it's just the packaging of the phrasing is just so hilarious.
But remember that line.
In short, a diverse workplace is a future-proof workplace, and it raises more money.
And trust us, bro, it'll work.
Now, let's look at a real contradiction in these people's worldview, because there's this one side.
This is the professionalist side you get from the World Economic Forum or these types of people who live in the university economy and nothing else.
And they'll endlessly tell you, I've got a study that proves this.
Trust me.
But at the same time, they love a certain kind of pornography.
It's the kind of pornography that Netflix has been producing, or at least the French division of Netflix has produced a new version of.
This is a Netflix original called Athena, which depicts a civil war in France after the Arab and African minorities rebel against the oppressive and racist French government after the death of one of their own during a police altercation.
Are they being held like the Israelites by the Babylonians?
Yes.
Can they not leave?
The only reason that their neighbourhoods are ghettos and really a mess is because the French have done this to them and no other community issues whatsoever.
But I just love the contradiction here because at the same time they're trying to make you believe that yes, a diverse workforce brings wealth and prosperity and everything in the future will work the more diverse it gets.
But also, as we have brought diversity to Europe, it's become ghettoized and will lead to civil war.
This is two things they honestly believe at the same time.
And that contradiction, I think, is hilarious.
And I suppose we will all enjoy the pornography they're professing to us of, isn't this going to be a wonderful future?
Let's play.
My brother died at 0.30 this night.
For the memory of it, the criminals will be translated into justice.
I'm going to ask you to stay calm.
It's impossible to imagine that the police protect their colleagues and pretend not to know who did that in this place where everyone knows.
Akina! Akina! Akina! Akina! Akina! Akina!
And you don't have to do it, little girl?
What?
It's false!
Every time they hit, they hit!
Every time they hit, they hit!
They say they're not the condes that they're going to do.
We're going to find those who have done that, whether they're out of the country or not.
We're going to find those who have done that, What's your problem?
You're still going to pay for orders?
I don't know if there's a war, especially not here.
I don't understand that it's already started the war.
I just want to look like that.
Oh, it's coming up.
It's just, it's unbelievable.
I see people in the chat being like, well, this is like the new North months for the diversity there.
But it also just makes them look like colonizers, right?
Yeah.
Because it's not like in, you know, Saudi Arabia or anywhere in Africa, there's a city called Athena, because Athena is the name of the Greek goddess of wisdom that Athens took its name from.
Probably the autochthonous god of Athens that, of course, the French would have picked up on because of the renaissance of ancient classical era literature in the sort of 15th and 16th centuries.
So to have a bunch of Arabs and Africans chanting Athena, Athena, Athena is then saying this is our colony.
Yeah, just this section of wherever we live.
We own this.
This is where we're starting our revolution, and we're going to...
This is not indigenous.
We're going to start the race war against the French, because the French don't treat us right.
But you'll notice in there, all throughout the movie, multiple characters keep saying, we'll find whoever did this, cop or not.
It's not actually confirmed that the cops even did it.
Right.
I mean, it's an even worse example of George Floyd II, you know, baguette boogaloo over here.
But notice how they're basically saying the French race did this to us?
Yeah.
It was just the French.
The French.
So we have to become literal barbarians.
I mean, like, the imagery is just the kind of thing you would expect the far right to make up.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, this is exactly what you...
Yeah, this is a...
I mean, they're probably thrilled that they produced this.
And left-wing Netflix are like, no, no, no, no, we've been to France.
It is like this.
Honestly, it's the same with Cuties.
Like, you know, if the far right were like...
You know, literally, if some online Nazis were like, what would be the worst thing they could put out to put people on our side?
Why don't they make a film venerating pedos?
That'd be great.
Why don't they make a film venerating, like, violent minorities trying to overthrow France?
And destroy the native population, because Gibbs.
I mean, I'm not joking about the Gibbs either.
Apparently the word Athena is very close to another word in French that literally means Gibbs.
We'll get to that in a minute, though.
Because we go to the angle response, of course, the Anglos here being like, the right-wing conspiracy to celebrate...
The right-wing conspiracy theory to celebratory Netflix film pipeline.
Yes.
See, this is why it's a good thing, and here...
Cuties is great.
Athena is fantastic.
Race wall now, says the left-wing.
Yeah.
Really, our world's exactly on the money here.
I'm glad we're on the same page.
I mean, so, the left did encourage all this mass migration for a reason, and now you're making pornographic films for yourselves about the dream you want to happen, which is a huge race war against the natives.
Okay, good to have an admission, I suppose.
Even if it's not...
I mean, it's pretty, bless it.
But we've got the next one here.
There's also just a fact, of course, just in response to this.
The phrase, diversity is our strength, or diversity makes us stronger.
I mean, you got this during George Floyd.
I believe that's where the image is from.
But it's not wrong, is it?
Because without diversity, they wouldn't need this strong a police state.
Yeah, but it's also diversity is our strength.
Yeah, their strength.
Who's our?
Them.
Right?
And, well, I mean, there's two interpretations, isn't it?
It's certainly not the native population, that's for sure.
You don't need a police force like that because of your average Frenchman or Englishman.
No.
Or maybe your average Frenchman, actually.
Not your average Englishman.
Mayday, maybe.
Yeah.
Commies.
But there's just the whole thing of trust us, it's our strength.
But also, you know, diversity in those articles from the professional side of all of this ideology.
Trust us, it'll increase profitability.
Trust us, it brings cohesion and is future-proofing your workplace.
But also at the same time, we will need an absolute police state to keep everything in order because the whole world is going to fall apart in response to the race war we're bringing.
Mm-hmm.
Zinch or something?
No, this is genuinely one of the forces of chaos, and this is Zinch.
You are correct.
If we go to the next one here, there's just also something else, which I fell off at the time.
I don't remember this.
I ran across it whilst researching this.
Just this headline.
Again, with the level of confusion you get out of these people.
London Police Commissioner says nationalities of eight on London bridge victims tell a proud story of the city's diversity.
This was, unironically, the intersectional chief of police.
This is how we respond to the London Bridge attack.
Yeah, so some people were butchered as a van drove them down, and some other guys got out with knives, stabbing people to death, screaming Allahu something, I don't know.
But look at the diversity of the victims.
And the intersectional police chief's response was, isn't it so nice of so few English people are in London that none of them died?
Not how I interpreted the London Bridge attack, but I'm a right-winger.
If we go to the article itself, it's not even a disingenuous headline.
She is off her rocker.
It gets worse.
She said in here, she said long-time Londoners...
Long-time Londoners value this international aspect of the British capital in response to the murders.
Did you ask any of the families of the victims whether they value the diverse attack?
I don't think she's got that far.
Quote, we believe, of course, that's what makes our city so great, she said.
That's a direct quote.
London sucked until it was diversified and then started exploding.
She continues, Like a cult.
There you have it.
Like an absolute cult.
It's unbelievable.
They also write in here that...
I kind of love this.
I don't know if the author is playing 5D chess.
But they write, Dick became London's first female police chief in April.
And then goes on to write, Since then, a crowded Manchester concert featuring a pop singer Ariana Grande was hit by a bomber, and three narth-wielding men rented a van attacking civilians around London Bridge.
It's just like, what an article.
I mean, it's literally a few months when the diversity has been striking back.
Let's move back to the propaganda for a minute, though.
Because, I mean, that is just the level of indoctrination, as you rightly say.
That's mad.
But if you go back to Netflix, this is the English release here on YouTube.
Oh, yeah.
70,000 views.
It's a French film.
So, yeah.
Like and dislike ratio.
Not going too well.
As you'd expect.
But for those listening, it's like, you know, YouTube Rewind.
And the comments in here are great.
I'm just going to read some of them.
First one.
This fiction where thugs have value?
Yeah.
Yeah, trust me.
Athena sounds a lot like Atena, which means give us.
Kind of fits the theme.
But boy, do I wonder about the stereotypes this movie will use.
Someone else comments, doctors, lawyers, and engineers.
Yeah, why are the professional, educated middle classes rising up like this?
Another one says, soon the French will get this treatment from the religion of peace.
And someone else says, the main character slightly looks like Salman Rushdie's attacker.
Interesting.
I'd say the French have had it way worse than us as well.
Yeah.
There's just so many terrible things that have happened in France.
There's a reason you can also, because that's the terrorism you're thinking of.
There's a reason you can make this kind of propaganda, and it also is very easy to make, like the location, getting the filming done, the visualization of what it would look like, and that's because it's kind of real.
You can just go to some Paris slums.
Yeah, and if you go to the French version, the French Netflix, oh boy, over a million views already, as you can see there.
Like the dislike, same as the English.
The comments are far more on point, though.
I mean, one commenter, I'm not even going to translate this because it's funny, they just say, ah, enrichment cultural.
Yeah, I saw a hashtag going on on Twitter, which was remigration total.
And I was just like, I don't even need to translate that.
Got that one.
Someone else, one of the highest comments I'm going to read.
Unconditional support for law enforcement.
Someone else says, nice, this documentary of our Finnish microbiologists who make France shine internationally.
I'm sure they're all Finnish.
I love it.
Someone else says, the evil whites against the Gentile immigrants discriminated.
An original.
And also someone else just beautifully puts it in French.
They wrote, a beautiful ideological shit.
That's the whole movie, is it?
It clearly is.
I'm actually quite looking forward to watching it.
Yeah, and I loved in the trailer, as I mentioned, there was one guy who kept saying, like, we'll find whoever did this, even if they are cops or not.
And it's like, that's the thing.
It may not even be a cop in the movie.
It may turn out to be one of the immigrants.
I mean, one of the Frenchies commenting did say, if it turns out by chance that he was killed by, quote, a chance for France, I will be laughing.
Yeah, an immigrant, yeah.
Have you ever heard that phrase?
If you go to the next one here, it's apparently a phrase that's been banding around in France, which is immigration.
It's a chance for France, which was a phrase for, like, why we should have more migrants, and we've been killed by a chance for France.
As if migrants ever do anything of the sort to one another.
There's never anyone who's trying to pick up a false narrative about police killing that would lead to massive race riots all over the country in the aim of gaining ideological and political power over all of society.
That's never happened.
Moving on.
But we'll just go to the last one here because, of course, just to look at the numbers as well of France's actual future.
I mean, Netflix probably aren't wrong.
I mean, things are only getting more and more extreme.
France doesn't have, at least I couldn't find in English, easily accessible data on ethnic groups.
This is just a foreign-born population.
And as you can see, just increasing rapidly forever in percentage terms.
I mean, even from 2010 till now, it's almost doubled.
So it's now up to, what is that, 14% foreign-born population.
In the whole country.
That's not London.
And France is, what, 70-80 million people?
Yeah, hugely spread out area.
Yeah, it's a big country.
But there you have it.
There's the left-wing race war porn Netflix is happy to produce in France alongside cuties to keep everyone in the left happy about where I think it's going.
I think it's important to remember that the art a civilization makes about itself is a reflection of the current conditions it finds itself in.
And so if the powers that be in France are like, yeah, we're expecting a minoritarian race war against the French people, and here's a positive vision of how it could look...
We're not expecting it, we're crossing our fingers for it.
Then that tells you a lot about the current temperature of the social situation in France.
And the people driving it.
Yes.
Right, anyway.
So, I am glad to inform you that once again, Donald Trump did nothing wrong, as the entire cathedral of leftism and rhinos in the United States have come down, tried to destroy him once again, and are actually stepping on the repeated rakes of American politics and destroying themselves, because...
And I never thought I would say this more than once, Donald Trump is the most clean US politician I've ever seen.
Like, once again, he's done nothing wrong.
And again, and again, and again, and again.
So before we get into it, if you want to support us, go to lowcities.com, sign up, only a five per month, and go and enjoy the politics of They Live.
This was something I had on the back burner for quite some time.
Very pleased with how this came out.
I'm not going to spoil it, but again, it's a question of authenticity.
What's actually under the mask, as it were.
Great thumbnail by Michael, by the way.
Must have put a lot of time into that.
Anyway, so you may recall that the other day I had Francis Foster on and we covered the storming of Mar-a-Lago by the FBI. After they'd said, no, no, no, it's okay to have all these documents.
Just put a lock on the door.
That's fine.
He'd done that.
They broke the lock, went in, burst in.
They apparently had an affidavit, and we didn't get to see it.
But Merrick Garland had come out and was like, trust us, bro.
I was like, oh, good point.
If there's one agency I trust in all of the United States, it's the FBI. The CIA can be like, trust us, bro.
It's just so trustworthy.
I don't know who I trust least.
The CIA did actually, through their incompetence, we have in black and white, end up causing 9-11.
I'm not joking.
I'm going to put a pin in that and we'll come back to that another time.
But the difference between the CIA and the FBI... The CIA does terrible things overseas, and the FBI does terrible things in the United States.
Except 9-11.
For example, the Gretchen Whitmer plot.
I only saw the headlines going around, but it looks like that might be entirely an FBI fiction.
They're plotting to capture Gretchen Whitmer, a Democrat governor.
It's like, okay, why does this agency exist again?
They were brought into existence through an executive order.
They can be gotten rid of by executive order, and they probably should.
But this is clearly a political witch hunt against Donald Trump, of course, persecuting the previous administration, like an actual banana republic, refusing to...
I mean, they say, oh, Donald Trump wouldn't agree to a peaceful transition of power.
It's like, well, neither are you.
You doing this now is you also doing that thing.
And so we had a Florida judge.
Good old Florida.
Come out and be like, no, I think we need to see the affidavit, because if you're going to raid the previous president's house or property, you kind of have to have a reason.
It has to be legal.
There are things called laws, and old-fashioned Republicans still care about them.
So we're going to have to have some accountability here.
So we opened up, and the filings that have been made public so far show the FBI's affidavit was 38 pages long, 78 paragraphs long, and was heavily redacted.
Heavily redacted.
11 pages are totally blacked out.
13 are partially redacted and 14 have no redactions at all.
So it seems that the...
Is it one third?
More than one third?
Well yeah, I mean...
Probably around 40% is just black ink.
Yeah, basically, yeah.
A third of it is just totally blacked out, basically.
Another third of it is half blacked out, and then a third of it is just obviously stuff they didn't care about.
And so this has the same sort of message that Merrick Garland put out.
Just trust us, bro.
Behind all this black ink is stuff that was...
What a tight case, trust me.
Which is why I'm censoring it.
Which is why you're not allowed to know, right?
So the affidavit says, oh, there was probable cause then.
That evidence of obstruction would be found at the premises.
And the probable cause leads us to believe that evidence, contraband, fruits of crime and other illegally possessed items...
We found at the premises.
And so the government, in asking the court to seal the affidavit, stated that it deemed to be necessary because the items and information seized are relevant to an ongoing investigation, and the FBI has not yet identified all the potential criminal confederates, nor located all evidence related to its investigation.
But investigation into what?
Because, I mean, it's not like Trump hasn't been investigated a lot until this point, and everything turned out to be nothing.
They say...
Excuse me.
They expressed a fear that prematurely disclosing the affidavit and related documents might have, quote, a significant and negative impact on the continuing investigation and may severely jeopardize its effectiveness by allowing criminal parties an opportunity to flee, destroy evidence, change patterns of behavior, and notify criminal confederates.
It's like, okay, but what do you actually have, though?
You keep mentioning criminals, criminal parties, criminal confederates, but what crime?
Make any sense?
Because, like, you literally visited before, saw the same documents, or, like, just put a lock in there, bro, it'll be fine.
If you thought something criminal was going on, you would have taken it then.
And you didn't.
Trump posted a post on TrueSocial just saying, well, look, they didn't even mention nuclear, unless they redacted that.
Like, there's nothing in this that appears to give them any reason for suspicion.
And he says, we gave them much!
We turned over the documents.
And, uh, so...
What were you after, if not the nuclear codes, which we were told by the media, oh, well, we've probably got nuclear codes, even though they should change every day, and this was a year and a half ago, but, you know, he's probably got nuclear codes, that's still...
Relevant somehow.
We know the old nuclear codes.
Like, they're public information at this point.
Are they?
I don't know.
It's 11 zeros.
Because the idea was, like, if it's a nuclear, you need to hit the same button and just get it done.
Oh, right.
But the point is, like, it doesn't even matter because they didn't even say nuclear codes in the affidavit that was unredacted.
The unredacted parts.
And so the Justice Department was like, yeah, this should have remained sealed, you know.
It's like, yeah, because it makes you look like incompetent clowns.
And it makes you look like you're obviously engaging in a witch hunt, right?
They cited the need to protect the integrity of an ongoing law enforcement investigation that implicates national security.
Yes, Trump is the national security threat to the United States.
And so they...
Chad is like he's got Ashley's diary.
I'll tell you what, man.
In his safe, he should have had just a copy of Hunter Biden's laptop and a hard drive.
He should.
Why not, yeah.
And just been like, yeah, so now I know you have it.
But of course he wasn't expecting the raid, because that's the point, it was an unexpected raid.
But basically this is all BS, right?
And even somewhere like The Hill has to put out an article going, look, the government has no case against Trump.
There is just nothing.
You've got nothing.
There is nothing.
Yeah, A, this was unconstitutional, but no one cares about the Constitution anymore.
I mean, they literally don't.
I mean, the student debt relief thing.
You go back six months and Pelosi's like, yeah, Biden doesn't have the legal authority to do this.
Now we're doing it.
It's like, okay, well, no one cares.
No one cares.
The Republicans need to organize essentially a sort of secession of the plebs where they just all refuse to cooperate with the government until these things are put right.
But they're cucks, so they won't.
Anyway, I like the way they say this.
Well, it's pretty official.
The optics aren't good.
It's like, yeah, they're really bad.
They're really, really bad, right?
Everyone in America, from plumber to president, is constitutionally protected from a government search that lacks adequate cause.
Apparently they're not.
Apparently, I mean, thankfully they're not yet going after the plumbers.
But anyway, yeah, so they said that the affidavit confirmed the FBI's investigation was triggered in January 2022 at the request of the National Archives.
And from what the person here has seen, of course, which is the same as everyone else has seen, which is...
Two-thirds, well, about half-blacked-out texts.
I don't believe the affidavit articulates how federal law was or is being broken.
They don't explain to us in it how he's broken the law.
So what's the probable cause?
Probable cause of...
And the FBI, like, just trust us, bro.
It's in the redacted bit.
The unredacted parts of the affidavit make no attempt to articulate the cause that Trump was not authorized to have these documents in his home.
The reason is that, as president, he had broad, legally intimidating authority established by law and court determinations to declassify any and all documents and to determine what is and is not a presidential record.
As in, there is no higher authority than the president.
And as Gorka said himself, you don't lose that clearance once you leave office either.
A former president remains with the highest level of clearance possible to everything that was under their purview.
Yes.
We have an interview with Sebastian Gore coming up shortly, actually.
Today, in fact.
So that'll be good.
Watch out for that.
But, yeah, so...
So, this is just the Hill's opinion.
I mean, these people are serious people.
These are professionals.
And they hate Trump with a burning passion.
Sam Harris Syndrome.
We'll get to Sam Harris in a minute, actually.
So if they're forced to be like, there's just nothing here, well, there's nothing here, right?
But there's a great, great line here.
The platitudinous justification from Democrats is, no one is above the law, but we know that's not true.
The FBI. They're above the law.
They're not enforcing the law.
The last time Democrats controlled the Department of Justice, Hillary Clinton was set high aloft and placed out of reach of reasonable prosecution by then-FBI Director James Comey and the concurrence of the Department of Justice.
Even Comey noted that she was clearly not authorized to possess highly classified documents on a private server.
We know.
We know.
God, it's all out in the open.
It could not be more cut and dried.
And so Trump, again, vindicated, posts a very good meme on Truth Social.
Which is, they missed the page, and if you can bring up that image, just so people can see it properly, yeah, make America great again.
But everything else blacked out for people listening.
Yes, the meme response to this has obviously been fantastic.
Go to the next one, this is a good one from Jack.
Oh no, that's not the one I was thinking of, but of course it's the MyPillow promotion.
And go to the next one, this is pretty good.
Yuri, I made our country Ukraine.
Yeah.
It's just transparent that Biden and the cabal of Democrats that are controlling the United States are using, with obvious willing compliance, the FBI to persecute their political opponents.
There is no more clear way of demonstrating this.
How else would you demonstrate?
What would you need?
But also because it's illegal.
It's like, what now?
Yeah, it's unconstitutional.
Exactly, right?
Well, there are some consequences, actually, because there's a lot of the Trump curse, where every lunatic who goes after him for lunatic reasons ends up destroying themselves, and that actually seems to be where the FBI is heading.
So if you go to the next one, the FBI agent who began the investigation into Trump, a chap called Tim Theibolt, has been dismissed and was frog-marched out of the FBI headquarters.
Over, in fact, his bias about Hunter Biden, right?
So he abruptly resigned after coming under congressional scrutiny for suspected political bias in handling the investigation of Hunter Biden's laptop computer.
The Washington Times learned that Thibault, an assistant special agent in charge, was forced to leave his post.
This came from two former FBI officials familiar with the information.
But as you can see, right, if you can scroll down a bit, you can see that they talk about some of his social media posts, tweeting, like, the Lincoln Project and things like this, just his spurgy social media of, I hate Trump, I hate Trump, I hate Trump.
He was insanely biased, all over social media, and boom, he's gone.
And as I said, if you go to the next one, he's the guy who opened the investigation to Trump, and so Trump claims another scalp by doing nothing wrong, which is pretty great, you know, good for him.
And again, this just keeps getting worse.
We covered the other day how the FBI just came to Mark Zuckerberg and, of course, to Twitter and said, well, we want you to bury the Hunter laptop story.
And Zuck, the response was, I still see them as a legitimate agency.
It's like, based on what?
What do you base that on?
It's a legitimate government agency, I think.
Well, not really, but of course, Twitter was like, right, we'll just ban you from posting a link to the New York Post, you know, the oldest newspaper in America.
And Facebook, well, yeah, so we just shadow banned it, essentially.
You know, we just deranked it in the algorithm.
So essentially, no one got to see it.
It's like, brilliant, amazing, amazing.
And so Trump posts a response to all of this on Truth Social.
So now it comes out conclusively that the FBI buried the Hunter laptop story before the election, knowing that if they didn't, Trump would have easily won the 2020 election.
Yeah, that seems to be true.
That seems to be something that they did.
We have from Mark Zuckerberg, I mean, we all saw that we couldn't post the link on Twitter ourselves, but now we have literally from the android's mouth the actual words, yes.
The question then is, like, why did Zuckerberg admit to this?
I think the evidence is just too overwhelming at this point.
Yeah, but you didn't have to say anything about that, right?
I mean, that is true.
I don't know if you've got the Bill Maher clip where he went on his show with, what was it, Amy Klemachar and some other guy that, I forget, I think it was in Transformers, and they were, and Bill Maher obviously being at least, you know, trying to get to the truth, comes out and says, well, what the hell is all this about?
Like, do we actually accept that this took place?
And in which case, you know, they're saying it did.
Yeah.
How do we feel?
Because, I mean, this last election, you know, ignore all the other stuff.
Like, this is screwed because of this.
And they just denied it.
Like, both of the guests were just like, yeah, but did they even say they were suppressing this?
Who's saying that?
Mark Zuckerberg's saying this.
And Bill Maher was like, no, yeah, black and white.
They were just like, I don't know about that.
And it's just like, pure denial.
Like, just pure denial still.
Oh, come on.
Come on.
And this was a senator and someone else, some Hollywood type, who's a big guy, but I can't remember the damn name.
Yeah, but obvious Democrat partisans who are stoking the new civil war.
And so, of course, Trump's like, you know, declare the election irreparably compromised and have a new election immediately.
I mean, that's not going to happen, obviously.
But Trump is not wrong that the FBI did bury the laptop story.
To be honest, though, if he gets back in power...
The FBI's gone.
No, no, no.
Screw the FBI. Because the thing on his mind, he's still gunning for that election, right?
Like, what's he going to do?
I mean, if he has the Senate, the House, and the Presidency, I mean, the Republicans could do something really funny.
Like?
Just repeal it?
Well, I mean, maybe.
Why not?
I mean, just do it.
Like I said, I'm sure the FBI was instantiated by an executive order, so...
That's gone.
Liquidate this.
Liquidate that.
Any of these compromised Democrat organs of power, just start getting rid of them.
Sorry, this is going to be basically how James Madison designed it.
We're going back.
You're all going back.
Trump becomes like Sam Neill in...
Event Horizon.
Too young.
But anyway, I thought we'd end just talking about Sam Harris's follow-up to his slight meltdown.
So I listened to this podcast that he put out, What I Really Think About Trump and Media Bias.
And I find this really interesting because Sam Harris is actually a Trump voter.
Sorry, we just appreciate for a moment how embarrassed he must have been to even make this.
Him typing out before the video title is just like, yeah.
The funny thing about Sam, though, is that he's like, I don't have TDS, right?
I actually really like all of Trump's policies.
But I fucking hate him.
No, but that's exactly it, right?
That's exactly it, right?
He says, I like his position on the border.
I like his position in immigration.
I like his position on foreign policy.
I like literally, he lists so much stuff.
I like everything.
No, no, no.
Nothing personal about him.
He likes all the things he's done, right?
But he doesn't like Trump because he feels that Trump has, I suppose, what we call a flexible relationship with the truth.
It's like, because Trump is Trump, right?
Trump is like a game show host.
You know, Trump is like the archetypal, American bluffing businessmen, right?
Nothing's bad in Trump world.
Everything's good in Trump world.
All bad is over there.
Take it till you make it.
Exactly.
And he's not wrong, right, that Trump has a questionable relationship with concrete factual accuracy.
Trump is selling mythology for Americans.
That's what he's doing.
He's saying, look, I am an American.
I love America.
We're going to make America great again.
This can all be reversed.
But that doesn't mean that Trump has a negative relation with reality, right?
Trump has a great relationship with reality, actually.
Because it turns out reality is essentially what you make of it for politics, all of politics.
So if Trump's like, look, Kim Jong-un, little rocket man, I'm going to come over there and nuke you, or I'm going to come over there and have a cup of tea with you.
Kim Jong-un chooses the cup of tea.
And he gets to walk across the DMZ and like, you know, holding hands on them or whatever gay thing they did, right?
It's like the same in the Middle East, same in Russia, same in China.
But if a lot of...
Politics is basically human psychology at the end of the day.
And Donald Trump's like, yeah, but I'm the guy with the biggest button.
And so I'm going to use the bully pulpit that comes with that.
Actually, the one advantage the Americans have.
Yeah.
And they don't...
Well, they don't use it anymore.
Yeah.
Under Biden.
It's just like, why?
You are still the superpower.
Yeah.
But Biden doesn't have the spirit for it.
And Trump had the spirit.
He believed in America, whereas Biden doesn't.
Biden believes in China, actually.
And we've got plenty of evidence of Biden saying that.
And so Trump has a sort of flexible relationship with narrative, right?
But the thing is...
Biden also lies all the time.
All the time.
Biden is constantly lying.
Biden is constantly saying, like, the inflation thing.
We had 0% inflation.
No, you had a 0% inflation increase on the, like, 10% or 9% inflation that you currently have.
You know, that's not 0% inflation.
That is, again, a lie, a lie, a lie, a lie.
And for some reason, Sam Harris doesn't really care about that.
And so Trump, like, has this sort of, you know, the narrative propaganda lie.
Not necessarily live, but he's flexible on it.
He's got sometimes questionable adherence to the truth.
But he hasn't actually done anything wrong.
And we know this because he's been investigated over and over and over.
And when he was in charge, things were going great.
Things were going really great.
And everyone remembers, only two years ago, everyone remembers how well everything was going.
There was a genuine sense of optimism about the economy, about foreign affairs, about just things, just life.
You know, apart from in the media where they were screeching, but that's always good.
I personally find that to be annoying.
Optimistic thing.
Whereas Biden lies all the time and he has done things wrong.
Sam Harris going, I don't care if he's owned by China.
It's like, okay, I do, though.
That's actually really bad.
It's sad to see how far those people have fallen when you grew up.
Yes, it really is.
But like...
The problem is, like, Biden is actually in thrall to foreign powers, and he's actually screwing up the United States.
Like, it's one thing being in thrall to a foreign power.
If everything's going great, you can be like, well, it can't be that big a deal.
But everything's collapsing in on itself.
Whereas Trump wasn't in thrall to a foreign power, and everything was going really well.
So, like, you know, Sam Harris has got this personal...
Just issue with Trump as a man, because he feels he doesn't stand on principle.
He doesn't stand for anything.
It's like, okay, but now there's Joe Biden, so, you know, what's the difference there?
But I think, actually, Trump does stand on one principle, and that's America good, simple as.
With that, we'll go to the video comments.
Statistically, a sightable portion of men don't even get one woman, and even less get more than one, while the tiny majority of men get as many as they want.
These people are usually unpleasant, but have the short-term appeal, which is why you want them even while demonizing them.
Your problem is you believe the f*** boy should change and settle down with you, rather than you changing and settling down with an actual normal man who's both your standard and what you desire in the long-term partner.
You're an elitist with a rapidly depleting natural advantage, and your arrogance is disgusting.
You refuse to change because you believe you're spotless and the world is a sewer, but in truth, you're the turd clogging up the spotless kitchen sink.
That was pretty harsh.
Tell us how you really feel.
I mean, I can't say you're wrong, but like, Jesus.
Yeah, I mean, I've seen the conversations with bimbo women, and yeah, their endless whining about how things aren't going well for them is like, yeah, I can see the common factor.
yeah there's yeah all of these things all the links in this chain have one common link in its new yeah next one they live is a fantastic movie and the aliens in there are definitely neoliberal yuppie globalists you can tell this because they have an aversion to guns and weaponry except for their jackboots
their environments are very corporate and stale in every single way including the multicultural bilingualism and the only area that shows any style is the high class ballroom where all they do is discuss profits and how the threat has been eliminated and they can return to normalcy.
We are off crisis alert.
The situation is normal again.
Well, it's a good thing we've got our breakdown of They Live Up on the website, because that was correct.
He's right about those eyes, though.
You see between Joe Biden and the alien there?
Anyway, the picture, though.
Whatever.
Right, Fuzzy Toaster says, Sam Hyde is using an Irish persona.
Carl, he's built like a sack of potatoes.
These jokes write themselves.
Well, I mean, I couldn't think of a better analogy, because he really does kind of look like a sack of potatoes.
If you just punch him, it's like, okay, he's not doing anything.
Like, you know, just hurting your hand.
Sophie says, I said this in the comment section yesterday.
This sort of confrontation could only take place between two men, especially this sort of call-out and humour.
It's honestly the most masculine thing I've seen for years, and I love it.
I love this man unapologetically being a man and making fun of himself.
With none of that usual insecurity or excuses of male feminists.
He gets the humour of it, but he doesn't apologise.
And this is a man.
I for one like men, so I'm not complaining I'm having a grand old time.
Well, that was the point.
Even at the end where he's like, man, I've never been in a fight, that was the toughest thing.
It was real.
You can't take it away from him.
He's been through the authentic experience, whereas Hasan Piker is going to post another video of himself powdering his knuckles on a bag.
It's like, yeah, okay.
Hammurabi says, a commie Turk.
Can you get a worse combination?
I mean, Kurd?
Turks are worse.
Callum says...
That's officially a terrorist group.
Yeah, the PKK, they're still terrorists.
No, no, no, I just can't believe you don't think Turks are officially a terrorist group.
Oh, they're just not officially.
That's what officially means, so...
Well, I'm the one.
We'll get that one day.
Callum says, I can name an equally good target, if not better, Vorsh.
Nah, it's not the same, because Hassan's quite a big lad and he spends a lot of time working out and beefing himself up, so it's like, you know, Vorsh is a tubby little...
Californian posh kid.
You know, he's obviously not going to fight.
Ignacio says, of course, Hassan, who certainly sees himself as the future administrator of the communist utopia, crumbles at the possibility of having to physically engage his enemies.
All of those punch Nazis in Minecraft.
It's like, go on then.
Go on then.
Don't do it in Minecraft, Hassan.
There's one outside your house screaming, Hassan!
Yeah, but what I love is how small Hassan looked in that clip.
He says, no, it's not right.
It's not right.
Hassan.
You absolute wuss.
You unman.
That's what you are.
I'm sure that, like other commies, Hassan would rather a meathead fanatic of his own to fight in his name.
Well, of course he would.
This ruins Hassan's credibility because he's always talking about revolution, fighting the alt-right and punching Nazis.
when presented with an opportunity to fight for his beliefs he turns tail and runs instead of losing with honor but this is part of the course for our members who only seem to get by when their black block buddies outnumber their opponents 20 to 1 um blueberry cheesecake says carl why don't you box internet comet etiquette with eric he never responded to my challenge uh i do wonder like how far could sam take this at this point I know he's probably just going to let it die because the point's been made.
Sam Pike is a cuck.
If Sam did turn up on his tricycle on his lonesome in Hollywood and just circling around where Hassan lives.
I mean, not saying anything, just like, oh, you do live here.
Oh, interesting.
And it just cycles off.
Oh, that'd be so funny.
That'd be so funny.
What's the worst you could get?
A restraining order?
I'd be like, who cares?
Imagine getting a restraining order!
You absolute pussy, Hasan!
Your name will be forever...
And the thing is, you don't have to win.
You don't have to win, right?
That one went for nine minutes, but you didn't...
You can just take a few blows, and then just be like, okay, I throw in the towel.
And everyone's like, okay, fair enough, Hasan.
Well, I'm just wondering the legal authorities of the United States, at what point, because I mean, they'll get that this is kind of a joke, you could probably explain this to them, but I mean, at the point where Sam Hyde is outside, walking back and forth, well, I think I would arrest him.
The great thing about Sam Hyde as well is he's so unpredictable that you just don't know, right?
He just buys the house next door.
Then what?
God!
Just puts up a sign at the front of the house, just like, fight me.
Not even next door, opposite the street, right?
So whenever we walk out the thing, he's just on his porch smoking a pipe or something, you know?
Morning!
Just a little group thing.
Just doing that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just...
Oh, God.
But there's no way out of this that Hasan doesn't look like a tremendous wuss, right?
There's just no way out of it.
And other than just getting in the ring, taking a few minutes.
And the thing is, everything would be forgiven for Hasan the second he did it.
But he'd be like, okay, you manned up.
Well done.
No one's angry at you now.
You do have the courage of your convictions.
You don't have to win.
You just have to not be a pussy about it.
Baron Von Warhawk says, the only thing that can prove a Netflix show is if the French use advanced tech and magic to bring Charles Martel, Charlemagne, Joan of Arc, and Napoleon Bonaparte back to life, and they go on a buddy cop-style adventure to save France from the invaders.
Kenneth says, only the French could lose a civil war against themselves.
Well, is it against themselves?
I mean...
They don't even frame them as, here's a Frenchman fighting a fellow Frenchman.
No, it's Arabs and Africans fighting the French.
So it looks like a foreign invasion from their own description of it.
Second time.
Yeah.
Bald Eagle says, after watching that clip, I'm surprised at the restraint the French government showed.
I fully expected them to bring helicopters, tanks, artillery strikes, and mobilize their infantry to siege the city.
I don't think Netflix France has read history and how France has handled revolts since Napoleon came to power.
Hint, it ends with a lot of dead insurgents.
No, because this has happened.
Like, this has happened multiple times in France since the mass immigration in southern France.
And it's just, it's been an S show every time.
And everyone just moves on like it's not actually that significant.
This has, you know, become a norm.
But he's talking about, like, what happened to, like, the Paris Commune and stuff like that.
They won't do that to these people.
Yeah, exactly.
When the French are actually dealing with French insurgents, they'll kill them.
When they're dealing with the precious minorities, they give them gibbs.
I can't name the movie after, Gibbs.
I can't get over that.
The movie is called Gibbs.
It's about foreigners taking over France and destroying the French.
Dan from Warhawk again.
So Netflix is making race war porn for their leftist audience.
That's odd, because judging by Netflix film cuties, their audience prefers child porn instead.
Well, I have to suggest that perhaps the Venn diagram for that is practically a circle, right?
It's just a single circle.
Lord Nerevar says, I saw the training for Athena on Twitter yesterday and I remember thinking this was a bit far even for Netflix.
Yeah, but the dialectic has to advance.
In a year's time, that'll be quaint and old hat when they're praising the...
What was the big attack?
In Bataclan?
Yeah, that's it.
They'll be doing a pro-Bataclan Netflix film in a year's time.
They were victims of French racism.
They took hostages.
They were killing racists.
They cut off a racist genitalia and put it in his corpse's mouth because, you know, racism against them and stuff.
Yeah, that was it.
That's anti-racism praxis.
It's crazy to me that we could be so unselfaware and write a story about a violent uprising in a Western nation by a non-integrated minority group, otherwise known as an invasion, while portraying terrorist insurgents as the sympathetic heroes.
Who lives in France, Netflix?
Yeah, it really is.
When they're throwing molotovs and stuff.
So this is lionizing the terrorists.
Drew says, I'm constantly reminded why my country has a Second Amendment.
Why my countrymen won't give up their arms even if the amendment is fully removed.
Yep.
JC says, the diverse companies are more profitable because they have a higher ESG score.
Well, I've seen Academic Agent talking about this.
Apparently, Larry Fink is like, eh, maybe this ESG stuff has to go.
It's not actually as profitable and useful.
Baron Von Warhawk again.
So Netflix created a movie where a multicultural society has devolved into an intertribal race war where gangs of literal spear-chucking barbarians burn France to the ground and attack the French natives for their skin colour and their ancestors' actions.
So in other words, Netflix has stated that Enoch Powell was right and diversity just brings in rivers of blood.
Kind of what they've done?
Sorry, I'm just going to have to refresh.
I mean, it's just so weird that they're doing this.
Yeah, no one asks you to do it on Netflix, right?
Yeah.
I know we know why they're doing it, because they genuinely want that and they enjoy it and all that.
But at the same time, you think, you must be self-aware enough, I know that's a wish, that you know how this looks to everyone else.
That was the thing about Cutie, isn't it?
It's like, are you producing far-right propaganda on purpose?
Apparently not.
Apparently, maybe they are.
I mean, I don't know.
But again, I can't...
I can't...
Honestly believe that they are unaware of this, right?
Because these people are on the internet all the time.
So I can't believe they're unaware of any of this stuff, right?
So anyway, Colin says, Donald Trump will always be the most impeached president in the US history.
The Dems, also the most acquitted.
Which is true.
I mean, like, again, just, I'm just, daily, remarkably, just, I just can't believe that they didn't find something on Trump.
Of all the people on earth.
Did you watch Ben Shapiro's talk about this for the midterms?
No, no.
What did he say?
I didn't get to watch all of it, but my understanding is essentially saying that stop focusing on Trump for the midterms, as in stop talking about him, because it doesn't work on a national scale.
I saw Rasmussen polls reply to that and said, actually, it does.
Because their polling, I think they do it by telephone, rather than just...
It is actually kind of embarrassing to see, as Curtis was saying, the massive sign-ups of women to vote in response to Roe v.
Wade being overturned.
Again, it's hilarious to watch women just line up to kill babies.
How progressive.
The sign-ups are affecting so much that the percentage chance of Republicans winning what they were expected has gone down hugely in response.
I didn't think it would have that much of an impact, in the sense of...
It's amazing that Dems have been able to use that to electoral advantage, because it's so mad.
Given the absolute shambles of America at the moment, and people are like, yeah, I'm still going to vote Democrat.
But specifically being radicalised on the idea that we should be able to kill kids.
Yeah.
No, no, it's not that we should be able to kill kids.
It's that...
I should be able to be a whore.
No, it's that all women in all states should be able to kill kids.
Because, of course, California and New York are never going to get rid of that until it's federally mandated.
Plus the gay exports it across the entire world.
Exactly.
Barbaric Europeans won't do this.
I will vote for the destruction of our economy as long as women in Alabama aren't allowed to murder their babies.
Says the Democrat woman.
And women in Alabama are like, what?
You're a monster.
Because at least the Taliban are like, yeah, I'm willing to destroy the entire Afghan economy if it means we get Sharia.
That's understandable.
Well, this is progressive Sharia.
That's the thing.
That's what they're arguing for.
I remember, I still never found the source, but I know it's out there somewhere, where there's some Lithuanian politicians talking about the fact during the migrant crisis, the Lithuanian government was given messages from the American embassy demanding that they take Muslim refugees, and the Lithuanian government just went...
What?
And refused.
But, you know, you must, if that took place, I mean, every embassy would have been writing that.
But then you think, what place is it of the United States Embassy in Lithuania to insist that the Lithuanians suddenly become 5% Muslim overnight?
Especially as, has Biden actually rescinded the Muslim ban that Trump put in?
I think so.
Right, I'll have to check.
Because I'm not sure if he did or not.
Because, like, if, like, look, we're not going to take Muslims, but you've got to take Muslims.
This was in 2016.
and I don't know if you passed it by them.
Nicholas says, it was funny that the affidavit was forced to be disclosed but to a judge, they tried to restrict it and admitted that the redactions they made left the document without any meaningful information.
The double think at the time was hilarious apparently to stop Trump lying about the information and protect witnesses.
Like Trump had tried to pull a Clinton but now I have seen nothing on this.
The MSM News has been happy to claim that apparently Brandon is doing better in the polls.
So again, just nothing is going to come of any of this.
Yeah, he did rescind it.
The media was whining, there was a huge backlog.
Is that good?
Kevin says, might have a negative impact on ongoing investigations means everyone will see this is just a witch hunt, stop him running, and guaranteeing we'll lose in 2024.
I mean, it's so obvious it's a witch hunt.
Come on.
I don't know what else you would need.
I mean, maybe if, like, Merrick Garland just accidentally released an email that said, yeah, so in our witch hunt against Donald Trump, maybe this is what we could do next or something.
You know, like, literally a self-confession is the only thing more that you could have to confirm this.
I'm just thinking, maybe I should explain the 9-11 thing I said earlier.
Go on, then.
So the way I said that the CIA did 9-11...
Well, I was a bit.
But we'll come back to that because I don't know what you're talking about.
No, so it's the incompetence.
In the book club we did, The Looming Tower, like Lawrence Wright has the documents.
And the FBI are actually extremely mad at the CIA because of it.
Because there's a quote from Steve...
That's our job, damn it.
Well, the CIA knew that the...
No, that is actually what they did do, though.
Yeah, but the CIA knew that the guys who hijacked the planes were in the country, they knew they were at risk, and they knew they were actually going to hijack planes and fly them into buildings, they just didn't know what planes.
That's their defence.
And the FBI finally were given a photograph of one of the guys saying, oh, by the way, he's in the country.
They're like, fucking what?!
Like, there's a quote just like...
Stop swearing.
No, because it's just, that's the actual thing.
He said, he's not going to effing Disneyland, but like, that's what the FBI sent to them.
And then the CIA just put up a wall and was just like, no, I don't got to tell you anymore.
Right, okay.
And then 9-11 happened, and they were like, oh, maybe we should have told you more.
So the FBI were like, look, we're the ones who bond the World Trade Centers.
Well, they were like, well, we should have done it the second time.
No, but they were actually behind the 1993 attempt.
And the second time the CIA were, with their incompetence.
So it's not that they're annoyed about that, it's that you're on our patch, you're on our turf.
How dare you?
There is a defence I've heard, which is the CIA were trying to hire these guys, because they wanted to take down Al-Qaeda, so they needed insights.
So they just let them go on their merry way, which on their merry way they went.
Brilliant.
Alfred the Beta says, if Trump had trolled the FBI with Hunter Biden's laptops, we'd have headlines such as, FBI seizes child porn laptop from Trump's Mar-a-Lago safe.
Yeah, they would, that's true.
Free Will says, what becomes of the US if the GOP does well in the midterms and their ploy to hobble Trump fails?
What desperate tactics will they use next time around?
Well, we'll find out, won't we?
I mean, this will seem quaint, I think, if Trump wins again.
But at least on the plus side, Trump's not going to get a third term, right?
Because it is actually legally restricted.
So, like, you know, once the receding threat of Trump, I mean, I guess it'll be DeSantis derangement syndrome that they'll have to have.
Do you think they'll treat DeSantis like they treat Trump?
Yeah, of course.
Yeah.
It could be Mitt Romney and they'll treat him like Trump.
Honestly.
Casey says, I don't believe that Zuckerberg has a conscience.
Well, how do you program a robot to have a conscience?
But it could be that his admission to Joe Rogan, sending the midterm elections, is an attempt to prevent the FBI at all from pressuring Facebook again this year.
Well, they've already said they're going to pre-bunk narratives, haven't they?
They've already said, we've got official fact-checkers, pre-bunking narratives.
Maybe he'd rather influence elections by donating $400 million to local election worker training like he did in 2022 than sullying his precious Facebook.
I've got this theory that actually Mark Zuckerberg is trapped in a prison.
And underneath, he actually does believe in things like free speech and American republicanism, right?
He believes in the actual legal structures of the American republic and stuff like that.
It's just that he is in San Francisco and he's at the head of the world's largest social network.
And I imagine there are some serious pressures on him.
I mean, honestly, I keep coming back to his defensive Holocaust denial.
I just love it.
I don't love Holocaust denial, obviously, but I love that Mark Zuckerberg was like, well, I actually think they've got an authentic and sincere belief, and so we should allow them to be wrong.
And it's like, that's what I would have said, you know?
I don't agree with what they're saying, but they should be able to say it.
And it took a lot of pressure from them to be like, look, Mark, we can't have, you know, Storm Gripen Fuhrer 1488 posting Holocaust denial over Facebook.
But they're important ideas.
But they just have a sincere belief.
It's like, but that is true, but we just can't have that on the family platform that my nan's on, Mark.
I think it's probably...
I can understand both arguments.
It probably comes from the same thing that convinced Bill Ottman, which is, what do you think happens when you ban them?
It just gets worse.
So if you actually want to help society, at least get rid of that stuff, you want them actually on the platform, because over time they'll just die.
Yeah, it becomes cringe.
Freewheel says, don't all politicians have a flexible relationship with the truth?
It's one of the few things they all have in common.
Yeah, I don't know why Sam Harris singles out Trump so much.
And again, I think it's because Trump's a big bloviating windbag.
Sam Harris isn't, and has probably been bullied by this kind of person when he was a child.
Same as Ben Shapiro.
You know, you can tell that Ben Shapiro hates Trump, really.
Because Trump reminds me of the jock in school who's dunking him in the toilet.
Yeah.
Maybe.
That's a good point.
Maybe.
But again, I kind of feel that Zuckerberg actually doesn't want to do censorship.
I do think that.
I might be wrong.
I'm not saying that I know or anything.
I might be wrong.
But I do think it.
Um...
General High Ping says, Carl, why would Zuckerberg say this so openly?
Me, some lizard species can sacrifice a limb and slowly regrow it at a later date so they can escape desperate survival situations.
That's a good point, actually.
Well made.
Anonymi says, is it possible that the android said this because he was influenced by the news so close to 50% of the employees in matter are ex-intelligence agency agents?
I didn't know about that.
I'm wondering, if Donald Trump agreed to go on Sam Harris' podcast, how do you think that would go?
Because I don't think Sam could pass it up, surely.
I think Sam would look at it as an existential crisis if he were to talk personally with Donald Trump.
Why?
Because...
He got to lose.
Well, you could see that his own audience, more than half, he had a 65% dislike ratio on that podcast, even though he was basically saying that I agree with what I'm saying, actually.
I like all his policies, and if it was anyone other than Donald Trump, he's essentially saying he would vote for him.
So, it's just because it's Donald Trump, and he has a personal issue with him.
I don't know, I'd have to read the comments to get, like, context, but I would have thought that it was a large part of his audience, like us, you know, people who still watch him, but being like, what the hell's wrong with you?
Oh yeah, they were.
But, like, you just see the, like, dislike ratio.
Like, the...
He would be forced to concede that actually Trump does have some principles.
It's just that Trump's principles are very broad and ancient ones.
It's about patriotism for Trump.
It's not about the immediate narrative and things like this.
So I think you would see it as a kind of destructive thing for him to do to himself.
Henry says, Yeah, I know.
That's the thing.
Trump just made good decisions and they had no choice.
Um...
Lord Nereval says, Trump was a breath of fresh air.
Far be it from me to parrot the ever-memed, I like him because he talks sense, praise.
But Trump is the only politician to win power I can think of in my lifetime that actually says things that are understandable and conceivable to the average voter.
Trump's statements reflect the reality you can see before your eyes.
He doesn't deflect, he doesn't gaslight, he isn't afraid to actually publicly address issues people can see.
I mean, if anything, the Mexicans are coming.
Some, I assume, are good people.
Like, pfft.
I mean, you know, there's addressing things people can actually see, and then there's Trump, which is, again, why I like him.
It's doubling down.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, them are bad people, but some are probably good.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, they're all criminals to start with.
They're all broken the law.
Compared to the utter doublespeak coming out of Biden's diversity-high press secretary, compared to Trump posting a 240p US flag after taking out a dangerous terrorist leader with a drone strike.
I mean, where did he get that?
He must have just gone to Google, American flag, right, save thumbnail as.
But the first thing that comes up is the Wikipedia entry for the American flag, which is high res.
But the thing is, if you've got the page of thumbnail previews, the preview itself is probably 240p.
But what do you mean thumbnail?
Because you don't get videos.
The first thing that does pop up is literally the Wikipedia entry with an image from Wikipedia, which is high-res.
Yeah, but when Google brings the image to your search, the image it shows is not the high-res image.
It doesn't load a 3-meg image.
I'm going to hit save.
Just see how big it is.
Because I'm pretty sure it does do that.
Save the image that Google presents you.
Yeah, yeah.
That's what I'm doing.
But anyway, it doesn't even matter.
It's just hilarious.
Anyway, Robia says, Question, what do you think will come first?
The Collapsed Society or the intersectional movement running out of gas and destroying themselves?
Well, the Collapsed Society easily will come first because the intersectional movement is designed...
Sorry?
I've got to do that on my phone because it's coming up weird.
Is designed never to fail.
Deconstruction of everything that exists is the purpose.
And so, definitionally, it can only fail when everything has been deconstructed.
So the collapse of society will definitely come before the intersectional movement runs out of things to complain about, without a doubt.
Ask Carl says, Random Viewer, how France can avoid what is depicted in the Netflix movie actually happening?
Remigration?
Remigration?
Eric Zemore had a plan and presented it, and it was actually feasible.
I love how he kept...
Remind me of his plan again.
So his plan was, for the illegals, the easiest thing...
That's the easiest problem to solve.
Yeah, it's the problem.
Actually, for legals, it's actually even easier, because you just say no.
Oh yeah, well you don't let them in on.
We turn off the tabs.
That can be done.
Very easy.
And there'll be some suffering in that, but you're not entitled to a French visa.
When it comes to illegals, it was fairly straightforward as well.
He literally copy-pasted Barack Obama, which was really funny for most of it.
That's why whenever one was like, oh, it's a racist plan, I was like, what's Obama's plan?
Black man did this.
Obama was like a deporter-in-chief, to be honest.
Yeah.
Surprisingly good.
The only excesses were he was like, okay, we'll send them back to the Macrab.
And if the Macrabi countries don't deal with us, okay, we cut off the Mac relations.
And if they don't, then we cut off another thing, another thing.
And it got down to Western Union payments.
It's like, yeah, no money coming back from your men working here illegally.
Yeah.
Then what?
I mean, that should literally be the first thing.
So for Mali, it's like a fifth of our economy.
Yeah.
Which is money from France.
Yeah, yeah.
That's genius.
So it's like, yeah, do you want a fifth of your economy or to take some of these men back?
And it's like, well, you have the men.
Exactly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hector says, when am I coming to the US? Do they still, do you still have to have a COVID test to get in?
I'll check now.
My latest answer was yes.
Yeah, exactly.
It was yes when we checked recently.
But if next year they've dropped it, I'll come over next year.
Christine says, please do a segment on the conservative leadership race in Canada and the immediate bias against the right love load seats.
I don't know anything about it, but I can ask Harry or Josh or someone, Connor.
Like I said, I don't know anything about it.
A asks, why doesn't Callum wear the Afghan robe and hat every day?
Because it would be...
Because you've got to wash it certain days.
No, but also I think it would be rude to walk around it in Swendon, even though half of Swendon is what it is where I am.
Yeah, I mean, there's something wrong about the aesthetics.
In the same way as when I was in Afghanistan, it would be wrong to walk around in jeans and a t-shirt.
Well, you say that, but I've seen a remarkable number of people wearing thobes or whatever.
Yeah, and that's wrong, and they shouldn't do it.
Yeah, I agree.
You'll fit in, is what I'm saying.
You can't go to the US. So if you're unvaccinated, you have to be a US citizen, or permanent resident, or some other weird exemption, which you don't have.
So there you go.
I can't go to the US because I haven't been vaccinated.
I refuse to get a test.
When are we getting Sam Hyde to guest host an episode?
Well, we actually looked into this.
Whenever he wants.
Yeah, we actually looked into this before we started, and I got John to message the people involved, and apparently he'd already travelled back, so next time he comes over, I guess, is the answer.
I think that's it.
All right, well, I suppose if you want more from us, go to thelosiers.com, of course.
Otherwise, we'll be back tomorrow at 1 o'clock.
