	Hello and welcome to the podcast of the loadseaters for the 3rd of October 2022.
	I'm joined by Carl.
	Hello!
	And today we're going to be talking about why I heart Bolsonaro.
	The sermon from Carl Benjamin.
	A love letter, in fact.
	Anyway.
	Pretty much, yeah.
	Also the 20-something death cult, which everyone's joining.
	And screeching to victory, which, uh, unironically, that is the strategy and it seems to be working, if you believe the poll numbers, at least.
	Sorry.
	God, I hate the conservatives.
	Yeah, well, enjoy some more of that.
	Otherwise, who do you love?
	Well, I have to be honest, I really do love Bolsonaro.
	I think he's great.
	I can see why.
	Everything about Bolsonaro's approach to the world is something that I think we need more of.
	We need more Bolsonaro's everywhere, every country.
	In fact, Meloni in Italy is a good sort of proxy.
	Just the unrepentant, I don't care what you think because you're evil.
	And therefore...
	And that's the position that he begins with and carries on from.
	And so naturally, the left is just like, oh my god, he's a fascist.
	But as we're going to see, no, he's actually the opposite of a fascist.
	He's turning Brazil...
	He's a threat.
	Exactly.
	It's not that he's a fascist.
	He's actually some sort of insane libertarian, right?
	He's a kind of Hoppian libertarian, actually.
	But...
	But that's the point.
	He's not a fascist.
	He's a threat, right?
	And I know that he's not a fascist because, of course, we know all about fascism because we've had to read it because all the left do is go, oh, that's fascist, that's fascist, that's fascist.
	So I was like, right, okay, I actually need to figure out what fascism is.
	So I went and read Giovanni Gentili, The Philosopher of Fascisms, The Origins and Doctrine of Fascism.
	It turns out that virtually no one is a fascist because fascists are insane and their commitments, the metaphysical commitments they make are pure Rousseau taken to the nth degree, like literal madness.
	So virtually no one is actually a fascist and those people who are fascists have a kind of commitment in the same way socialists do.
	It's just socialists are slightly less crazy than fascists are.
	The amount of commitments you have to make to be one is so insane that I'm not sure there are many more than five.
	Yeah, I mean, it's just a totally dead doctrine.
	And good.
	But anyway, so let's move on to the problems with Brazil.
	Because Brazil has lots and lots of problems.
	I mean, the first one, of course, is the drug barons.
	I'm sure you've heard of this, but you can find articles like this from the New York Times, where the neighbouring countries are like, oh my god, Brazil's drug lords are coming here and ruining everything here, and we've got a weak state, we've got a weak army.
	They're bringing crime, drugs, some, I assume, are good people.
	No, zero are good people.
	Zero of these, and they are horrifically brutal.
	Like, they make the Assyrians look like they're amateurs.
	Honestly, just...
	Just so many examples, just in this article, of just terrible, terrible things, right?
	And of course, the New York Times has to...
	I mean, just look at this.
	Just murders just going on.
	It's just insane.
	Insane.
	They put £187 of explosives on a car to free a drug lord who's in jail.
	Just like...
	I mean, these people are very, very serious people, right?
	Hey, business is business.
	Yeah, and apparently a lot of American weapons are being smuggled over there.
	And these drug gangs have tens of thousands of foot soldiers.
	So this is a real problem that we do not have over here.
	Corruption is, of course, another major problem in Brazil.
	A really big problem.
	I mean, the last three presidents of Brazil have basically been brought down by corruption scandals.
	The former president, Lula de Silva, he's the main guy that we'll be talking about.
	Well, he spent like three years in jail because of corruption charges, and he was campaigning from jail for this campaign, incidentally.
	He apparently received over a million dollars in kickbacks, which he put towards renovating his beachfront apartment.
	He's basically the Brazilian version of Bernie Sanders.
	Not even joking.
	And there were additional charges of money laundering.
	His successor, Dilma Rousseff, was impeached for mismanaging the federal budget.
	And the successor, Michael Temer, was arrested on charges of an estimated $470 million into a criminal organization he spearheaded.
	So, major problems with corruption, major problems with drugs.
	And these aren't just non-aligned random politician types.
	No, they're not.
	These are all from the Workers' Party.
	Yes, yes they are.
	It's corrupt socialists.
	And so they have a political adage in Brazil, they steal but they get things done.
	Which is one way of looking at it.
	Vote for me!
	Yeah.
	But this is a great article, and this explains a lot of the problems that Brazil has from a political perspective, right?
	They say, as in much of Latin America, parties in Brazil are often mere vehicles for patronage.
	They are a device for facilitating negotiations between regional and economic interests and the government, all in the guise of democracy.
	So that's what Lula and his fellow leftists are essentially playing into.
	That's why they're taking all the money.
	And of course, Lula was let out of jail, not because he wasn't taking money, but because the courts that sentenced him lacked jurisdiction.
	It's not, you didn't do it.
	It's, well, they don't have the authority to lock you up for what you apparently did.
	So run along now.
	That's exactly what happened, yeah.
	There's still a legal battle going on, but to be fair, it's probably not going to go anywhere.
	Now, Lula wasn't actually terrible.
	I think it's important to point that out.
	On balance, his policies were actually not atrocious, right?
	Because he had the good fortune of presiding over Brazil during a period of general economic growth until 2011.
	So from 2004 until 2011, he had quite a good run.
	As they say here, growth generated good jobs, unemployment fell to historically low levels, millions of workers moved into the formal sector with higher wages and full benefits.
	The expanding economy also meant credit for low-income consumers.
	The administration took additional steps to ensure poor Brazilians were fully incorporated into the growing economy.
	It strengthened the national minimum wage and social security and unemployment insurance programs.
	These changes protected the living standards of nearly 50 million low-income Brazilians.
	So one of the ways that a lot of Brazilians see this, apparently, is that essentially he redistributed wealth.
	But there are a lot of poor people in Brazil, and probably quite a few very corrupt and very rich people, so it doesn't seem entirely unjustified.
	He also used this economic boom to fund his signature social program, the Bolsa Familiar.
	Now, this is actually quite a good idea.
	And actually, you know, I can see why he'd do such a thing.
	So the conditional cash transfer program gave a monthly stipend to poor mothers who keep their children in school.
	Okay.
	I mean, it's not a terrible idea.
	I don't think you'd have to pay people, usually, to send their kids to school.
	No, but you do.
	But anyway, after Lula was removed from office for corruption, the Brazilian economy started going down.
	I mean, the Brazilian economy was not good at all back in 2018, 2017.
	When it was basically moving into a recession, the growth was 0.1%.
	And that seems optimistic, frankly.
	But it was not going very well at all.
	And of course, so these are the problems that Bolsonaro came into office with.
	And of course, you have another problem, which is Brazil is a very left-wing country.
	I mean, they have order and progress on their flag.
	Progressive politics quite powerful in Brazil.
	Bolsonaro representing the order side of the equation, and Lula representing the progress side of the equation.
	But yeah, so, I mean, this is from the Federalist, which I take as a reliable source on this, and they point out that, look, there's extreme leftism in Brazil, and of course the fake news that comes with it, right?
	They've got an interesting tale here.
	An interesting episode was when Bolsonaro was interviewed at a conference which was directed to more than 2,000 financial market executives on February the 6th.
	Five days later on February the 11th, one of the main newspapers in Brazil reported that Bolsonaro said in the conference that he would impose a curfew in Favela and kill anyone who didn't obey it.
	Now, I mean, that does sound like something you would say.
	But it was entirely made up, right?
	Yeah, exactly.
	Well, I'm not voting for you anymore.
	The general disappointment of Bolsonaro's supporters.
	And therefore, Bolsonaro, of course, ran as the candidate of law and order against corruption and leftism.
	You get amazing compilations like this, which we won't play because it's got copyright music on it.
	But you can see from the subtitles.
	I mean, Bolsonaro is a captain in the army.
	Should we read some for the audio?
	Feel free.
	If a criminal gets killed shooting a police officer who gives an F, as long as you don't rape, don't kidnap, and don't commit to armed robbery, you won't get to jail.
	That's all.
	Damn it.
	Did the police kill 60,000 crooks?
	I wish they killed 200,000.
	As you can see, you don't care at all about public safety acting like little girls like sissies.
	Like, I love this guy so much.
	Yeah, I don't know why you would disagree with any of this, frankly.
	As you can see, order and progress, well, he's very much on the order side of things.
	Oh, this looks like progress to me.
	Well, I mean, there's an argument to be made.
	But he's just the most outspoken against, like, you know, the sort of leftist softness on criminality.
	Because this has been a major problem with Brazilian politics.
	Some say killers need more culture.
	What they really need is a beating and harsh punishment.
	Yeah!
	He's right!
	He's totally right!
	We're going to talk to Norway like, oh, but what if we show the Somalis Swedish art cultures?
	Yeah, no, they're still going to do what they do.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And that's exactly it.
	And he's, of course, going after leftists trying to indoctrinate children into LGBTQ. He literally says, go and take it up the ass wherever you wish, dammit.
	Just don't do it in front of children.
	And he's literally, I'm going to be colourblind as president, because he's like an arch-libertarian here.
	He's not like a racial person.
	No, like, if you're gay, do what you want.
	If you're into race mixing, do what you want, I guess.
	Not for children.
	It's just like, yeah, don't indoctrinate kids, which, yeah, libertarians.
	And you can see just the general attitude.
	I love this.
	I don't care about votes.
	A politician cares just about getting votes is scum like any other.
	That's a great thing to tell a massive crowd, I think.
	That was a brilliant statement.
	They accuse me of everything except corruption.
	Another great line.
	What they accuse you of is all the funny ones.
	It's like, human rights my ass.
	This is definitely one of my favorite clip compilations.
	I love the confrontational man.
	He's just like, no, you're evil and wrong and screw you.
	Again, ex-army captain, you've got to love it.
	And so it's for this confrontational attitude that I think he got stabbed by a communist on the election trail in 2018.
	But the communist was okay, folks, don't worry.
	He was not convicted.
	He was acquitted because he was ruled to be mentally ill.
	That means communist.
	I don't know how I feel about that, to be honest.
	On one hand, it's definitely true.
	On the other hand, they probably should...
	It's a weird get-out clause.
	Yeah, they probably should be punished even though they're communists.
	Yeah.
	Mentally ill.
	I would force them to say in the court, I am indeed a communist and therefore mentally ill.
	That's how you plead, that you're mentally ill.
	Communist.
	Legally confirmed mentally ill in Brazil.
	If we're going by precedent...
	How is that not precedent?
	Communists stab Bolsonaro.
	It's obviously a political attack.
	Well, what happened?
	Well, he's mentally ill.
	We have the same thing with Islamists here.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Yeah, we do, actually.
	Anyway, so Bolsonaro finds a lot of support among footballers, weirdly, and has done in this election cycle as well, which I just think is a very interesting turn, right?
	Like massive, massive names in the football world who are just like, yeah, yeah, he's my guy.
	Anyway, so, come to like the first year of Bolsonaro's presence, because he's been present for three years now, four years.
	So, he was exactly what they expected him to be.
	So, you know, no hiding anything there.
	Bolsonaro, I'm going to ruin everyone's day.
	It's like, yeah, he ruined our day.
	Oh, ruined the leftist day.
	Oh, yeah, exactly.
	Bolsonaro was, in most ways, what we expected him to be.
	Weirdly, that wasn't a big act.
	That wasn't a mask.
	Everyone always acts so shocked.
	Yeah, I know.
	Who could have imagined?
	When he's arguing with the leftists and stuff like this, it's like, yeah, it wasn't an act.
	Of course it wasn't a bloody act.
	He's had a reasonably good year in terms of progress, and he held on to a strong nationalist base of support.
	Another sign the economy might be turning a corner is because it's been slightly up after six straight years of negative or stagnant growth, and he got Congress to approve a landmark decision to overhaul the country's pension system, which was a major victory for him.
	And also, one thing that he had pledged to do was reduce homicides, which we'll get into in a minute, actually, because I've got a graph that shows you it much better.
	But they say, Bolsonaro, who pledged to defend police officers and said those who shoot criminals would be given medals rather than face legal punishment.
	What a chad.
	I love this attitude.
	So anyway, say goodbye to your environmental budget leftists, because that's gone.
	He literally goes to an environmentalist conference, and they're like, yeah, so you're going to increase funding?
	He's like, yeah, and the next day cuts it by a quarter.
	So anyway, going to the economic growth of Brazil, if you can scroll down to the graph, It's the bottom one here that we want to look at, really.
	So you can see the net.
	You can see before the two red ones at the end there.
	That's 2016, 2017.
	And, of course, I think we can let him off for the COVID thing.
	I don't really think that the COVID... Well, the entire West has had to turn off their economy, so everyone got screwed.
	I don't think that's entirely his fault.
	So, mild growth.
	So, you know, he'd done more good than harm there.
	And, of course, he moved to loosen gun laws.
	They're doing a lot more good than harm.
	A lot more good, yes.
	Because, of course, Brazil has a crime problem.
	It has the most homicides in the world.
	200 million people in Brazil, and lots and lots of psychopaths who have got lots of guns.
	I don't even think it's close.
	I don't know if you've got the Wikipedia list of just homicide per 100,000.
	It's like everything gets a bit bad, and then it just jumps to Brazil.
	Brazil is like 30 or something.
	It's a ridiculously high number.
	Like 64,000 people were killed.
	In Brazil.
	Oh, we have one there.
	Can you just say it's Brazil in the middle there?
	It's actually looking better than I remember it being.
	I remember it being much worse.
	Well, well, well, well, because...
	A reason for that.
	Yeah, exactly.
	That's because Bolsonaro is like, hey, do you need some guns?
	Because, you know, the typical fascist arming the population, no, that's actually what a libertarian does.
	And so if you go to the next one, in fact...
	No, no, sorry.
	The previous one, there should be a graph on here.
	On this one.
	There, you can see.
	You see the peak there?
	Yeah, there we go.
	2019.
	Oh God, yeah.
	So that's why it looks like better.
	Go to like 2017, John.
	So it's not that it wasn't the worst in the world.
	It's that Bolsonaro has resolved it being the worst in the world.
	I mean, it's still terrible, but it's a hell of a lot better than it was.
	It's a huge cut.
	Yeah, there is a downside to this, though, which is when you have the sort of libertarian Ancapistan, and let's be fair, a lot of Brazil is remote, right, should we say.
	You get militias taking over.
	As everyone who's ever debated with the libertarian will point out, You get militias in Ancapistan.
	It's just the way things work.
	And so they're like, no, it's not a dictatorship.
	It's worse, right?
	Imagine a society where state services have been reduced to the bare minimum or have even stopped to exist.
	Yeah, just imagine.
	Imagine all the people.
	So like miniature states.
	Yeah.
	Again, libertarian paradise, opposite of fascism.
	Minimal taxes because of that as well.
	On the weekend, citizens go to the local Pentecostal church where ministers, after delivering a conservative moral speech, circulate their electronic payment sheets to collect the tithe.
	Health services are privatized and families are allowed to carry guns to protect themselves.
	This is the type of dystopic society that Jair Bolsonaro has in mind.
	This sounds amazing.
	I want to listen.
	That's freaking hilarious.
	People are allowed to carry guns to protect themselves.
	This is a dystopia, says the leftist.
	Bolsonaro is on a mission to destroy everything that he believes was built by the left.
	Good.
	Yeah, salutes on the chart.
	Well, no.
	What am I supposed to say to that?
	That's why he aims to abolish every single Republican institution in the country.
	Just kidding.
	He undermines, defunds, or simply closes down any public agency that has been constituted to control the civic life and norms that rule social life.
	I wish the Conservatives would be taking some cues from this.
	Defund the Home Office, defund the Immigration Department, defund social services, and let's now talk about the NHS. Libertarian paradise is what he's creating, right?
	Literally just secure the country with the army.
	Yeah.
	Bolsonaro delivers weekly press conferences in which he targets minorities such as gays, indigenous people, and women.
	Women are a minority now, though.
	I don't know what they whine about this.
	Do you remember when Trump was campaigning and he did something similar?
	Where he'd tell jokes and they were like, oh my god, he's targeting people.
	It's like, jokes, man.
	Bolsonaro clearly has a sense of humour as well.
	Yeah.
	It's just whenever the right has anything to say that's comedic, it's some kind of call to death.
	Yeah.
	Whereas when the left tells a joke, even if it's about killing all white people and they're unironic in it, then it's still a joke, bro.
	I don't think the left does tell jokes.
	Anyway, the point is an armed society is a polite society, right?
	And as Bolsonaro is like, hey, you guys can get armed, they're like, yeah, we will.
	Actually, they give the example of Wagner Canario here, who's a former Brazilian army sergeant who had a gun pointed to his head when he was in the car with his family, and he wants a gun for himself to defend himself from these kind of robbers and muggers.
	Since 2018, the number of guns in private hands has doubled to nearly 2 million, which isn't actually that many.
	It's a good start, though.
	We've got about 2 million guns probably owned in Britain.
	That's actually not very many.
	Yeah, Brazil's population is way bigger.
	Yeah, I know, that's what I mean.
	That's actually a small population.
	But the thing is, their gun laws are very restrictive, apparently.
	And weirdly, the cartels weren't following them at all.
	So, you know, when the American Republicans are like, ah, yes, the criminals won't get guns illegally.
	Well, Brazil's a great case study, and yes, they will, actually, and they don't care.
	So anyway, how did he do in his first year is another article of people saying, well, gotta be honest, he actually did all right.
	It's hard to argue, apparently.
	He introduced loads of complex reforms such as tax and labour policies, reduced government spending, increased trade openings and infrastructure investment.
	So good, basically.
	While business leaders and foreign investors appear increasingly confident that economic revival is in sight, many prominent analysts paint a darker picture.
	Homicides and other violent crimes, according to criminal statistics, have fallen dramatically this year.
	There is also a steep rise in murders by the police.
	You have criminals.
	It's not a murder.
	I was shot, so I killed him.
	You murderer.
	Exactly.
	Exactly.
	And so this next line, nonetheless, Bolsonaro's hardline approach to crime has the support of many Brazilians fed up with unbridled violence.
	I can't believe it.
	I can't believe it.
	So anyway, many Brazilians oppose Bolsonaro for his extreme confrontational agenda on ideological and cultural issues.
	But these have attracted the loyalty, of course, of the evangelical bloc of Brazil, which is about 30% of all Brazilians.
	So he basically is the sort of Trump of the tropics.
	They aren't wrong to call him that.
	But the thing is, the problems in Brazil are just worse than the problems in the United States.
	And Bolsonaro's just got a funnier response than the other way.
	So when it came to COVID, he was a COVID denier.
	It's not that he thought COVID didn't exist.
	He just didn't think it was terribly dangerous and didn't want lockdowns.
	In fact, he was very much against lockdowns.
	Because again, what a fascist.
	You get to the next one.
	You see that, you know, downplays it, you know, starts firing people on air when he lockdowns, opposes lockdowns.
	And this is where we get to, I think, the closest we can find to corruption in Bolsonaro's cabinet.
	Now, the allegations are not against Bolsonaro himself.
	They're against people around him.
	One against his son, in fact.
	The Chief Whip in the Lower House of Congress, Ricardo Barros, and Bolsonaro's son have been accused of essentially taking bribes over the coronavirus vaccines.
	Who knows whether that's true or not?
	Probably is my answer.
	But the amount of money is...
	If you go to the next one, this is talking about the sun facing the crushing probe.
	I mean, for example, Lula took 1.16 million, I think it was, or 1.2 million.
	Bolsonaro's son apparently used $320,000 as a bribe.
	I was like, okay.
	But, like...
	The big stack of leftists who are corrupt in Brazil.
	I couldn't find.
	There was a graph of them.
	They're all convicted as well, though, aren't they?
	Yes.
	Whereas this is an allegation.
	For tens and hundreds of millions of dollars, and they've got 320,000 in Bolsonaro.
	They're all like, how could you?
	It's like, yeah.
	I mean, it's probably that this is true.
	But, you know, it probably is the fact.
	And so it's not Bolsonaro himself who's being alleged, but his son and people around him.
	But again, what do you expect?
	There were quite large protests over his lack of lockdowns in Brazil.
	Leftists going, how dare you?
	Let us all gather in big crowds to show how serious we are about the threat.
	Yeah, well, the banging of pots and pans became a socially distanced way for Brazilians to protest Bolsonaro during the pandemic.
	Yeah, sure it was.
	Sure it was.
	And they blamed him for the 460,000 Brazilians dead at one of the worst death rates in the world.
	It's like, well, if you're going to go and get out on the streets in big groups...
	Well, so you're Brazil.
	Yes.
	Like, I'm sorry, but we don't actually expect the best healthcare from Brazil.
	Weirdly.
	So anyway, we had yesterday's first round of voting.
	Now, the way it works in Brazil is if someone takes 50% of the votes in the first round, then that's just them.
	They get it.
	And if they don't, they have a runoff with the two leading candidates.
	If you can scroll down on this, you should be able to see the...
	This should have a graph, I think.
	I thought they had a graph, but anyway.
	So basically, when Lula left office, he had an 83% approval rate.
	For someone going to jail on corruption charges, that's pretty good.
	I'm a corrupt asshole, but we love you.
	Again, you get used to the politicians you've got.
	I think the corruption charges came after you.
	Okay.
	But I will have to double-check that.
	Again, any Brazilians in the chat, let me know if I've got any of this wrong, because, of course, I'm not from Brazil.
	But he had an 83% approval rating, and he apparently won 48% of the votes, which was roughly in line with polls, but Bolsonaro did much better than expected, taking 43%, which means he, and also his supporters, outperformed polls in state and senate races.
	And this has shook the left somewhat.
	Because, of course, you know they love their polls.
	And, of course, the populists are like, the polls are lies, and Bolsonaro says this.
	Polls are a big pack of lies, and they're not representing our actual support.
	Well, it seems that that is the case, but Lula is in the lead.
	But he was meant to be winning by, what, like, 15 points?
	Yeah, he was meant to be 30 points up, actually.
	Uh, so, like, the polls, like, they're obviously...
	Now they're a lot, like, three points away from each other?
	Five.
	But yes, uh, very close.
	And the leftists are suddenly realising, well, hang on a second, but we've been polling people in Rio de Janeiro, and they all like Lula, you know?
	Because it's like the inner-city urban rabble who have been given money by Lula.
	So, Okay, but they're not the only voters in Brazil.
	They don't have to tell you.
	But they say, so it's on October the 30th that there's a second round of voting.
	And if you can get to the next one, we can see the change since last year.
	So Lula got 57 million votes, Bolsonaro got 51 million, and of course the two independent candidates, which I believe are supposedly centrist candidates, got about 8 million between them, something like that.
	So, essentially, what Bolsonaro needs to do is rustle up about 6 million votes.
	Now, it's expected that the runoff votes will go to Lula, so he probably won't win.
	Sadly.
	And as you can see, if you go on social media, Bolsonaro gets massive rallies.
	Like, you've just not seen rallies like this.
	Trump's rallies are big, right?
	But watch for this.
	That's the Trump rally there, right?
	That's the sort of average.
	I mean, that's just massive.
	Hundreds of thousands of people.
	But when the camera pans across, you'll see it's on the entire other side, and it just goes down the street.
	I thought it's at a beach as well.
	Of course it is.
	Of course it's at a beach.
	But it just keeps going, and going, and going, and going, and then off into the distance!
	Like, that is a staggering number of people.
	Like, it's probably like a million people there.
	And so it's no surprise that there's a great number of quiet Bolsonaro supporters.
	If you go to the next one, you can see the general problem the media class has.
	It's like, well, hang on a second.
	We thought this was going to be a whitewash.
	We thought it was going to be a total landslide.
	How has it come down to this sort of skin of the teeth, you know, nail-biting, white-knuckle ride?
	And there are leftists, you'll find, who are commentators on this from Brazil who will be like, this is a catastrophe for Lula, actually.
	This one commentator I found here.
	I may be a bit emotional right now, but I'm not going to sugarcoat it.
	Tonight was a catastrophic night for Brazil.
	Lula's lead is shorter than imagined.
	Even those who expected a second round didn't expect Bolsonaro to perform so well.
	Many imagined that some last-minute votes would go to Lula, but the movement was the other way around.
	Third and fourth candidates performed worse than expected, and their votes seemed to have gone for Bolsonaro.
	That's interesting, isn't it?
	Now, I'm not saying that I have any prediction or that's indicative of anything concrete or anything like that, but if they're expecting the sort of centrist candidates to go to Lula, and in fact they went to Bolsonaro, well, maybe those six million votes will go to Bolsonaro!
	Who knows?
	You said this is a leftist commentator, right?
	I imagine so, yeah.
	I just love this line here.
	We can kiss sensible right-wing goodbye.
	It's just like, you don't believe.
	Like, their sensible right-wing is being left-wing.
	Bolsonaroism is now deeply seized in Brazilian society.
	Yeah.
	I'll be honest, I am very much enjoying these moments.
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	And I love the concept.
	And this is exactly the same in America where Biden's trying to do with the ultra-MAGA types.
	He's trying to be like, oh, yeah, MAGA Republicans.
	Yeah.
	That's something else.
	That's something outside of the right way.
	Not good Republicans who agree with leftism and will do everything the left say until we eventually arrive at communism, which is exactly her complaint, right?
	She even puts sensible quotations, whatever.
	Exactly, right?
	And so it's good to see that, like, A, things are all still to play for, right?
	But she's like, yeah, we can kiss goodbye to the sensible right wing.
	The runoff election is a new election almost starting from scratch.
	The left leaves tonight demoralized.
	Bolsonaro and his supporters will go even harder in claims of fraud, etc.
	I certainly expect more political violence.
	Well, you guys stabbed him.
	I mean, Jesus.
	Well, we're at demoralisation.
	Now for destabilisation.
	Polling was insanely bad everywhere.
	SP State was expected to have a Workers' Party candidate, Haddad, to win.
	He'll be in the rough, but made it way behind what the polls indicated.
	Bad polling will only strengthen Bolsonaro's claim of fraud.
	While the left was able to put some good ones in the legislature, House and Senate still have a right-wing majority, and some of Bolsonaro's key names got elected.
	Even if Lula wins, his life will be hell, as I also anticipated in a few days.
	So what she's saying is that Bolsonaroism has been deeply embedded into Brazilian society.
	So even if Lula wins, like half the country is like Trump countries.
	It's like MAGA country, Bolsonaro.
	And so they're sat there, as she says, demoralized, being like, oh, they're not going to agree to our communism.
	The best possible thing is getting the guns in the hands of the people.
	Yes.
	I mean, if you're a Brazilian, if I was a Brazilian, I'd be getting as many guns as I could right now.
	Oh, yeah.
	Because there's just the aspect of, like, even if he wins, he's just going to start singing, keep my rifle by my side.
	Like, what are you going to do?
	Come and take it.
	So what if he doesn't win?
	There's another option.
	How likely is a coup in Brazil?
	How likely is South America going to be South American?
	Well, I mean, Bolsonaro did...
	I mean, one of the things they complained about is he admired the dictatorship of the...
	I think it was the 60s.
	And he was alive for that as well, so...
	Wasn't he serving in the army for that?
	He was, yeah.
	He was.
	So Bolsonaro is, of course, following the Trump path.
	And now I just want to point out on YouTube that I have no information about On the voting integrity of Brazilian elections, so I will merely be repeating Bolsonaro's claims which I do not endorse.
	But he's been issuing dire warnings of a rigged vote because they think he's trying to head off a predicted loss in the presidential election.
	The real danger that violence comparable to that of January 6th in Washington might occur.
	A, I think it'd be a lot worse in Brazil.
	B, what, the danger that someone in the protesting department, the protesters, is going to get shot?
	Yeah, no, actually, January 6th wasn't an insurrection, get this out of your ass.
	No.
	What would happen in Brazil would be far more interesting.
	And the only person to have died as a consequence of the protest was Ashley Babbitt.
	So...
	I don't know what you're talking about, Newsweek.
	But they're like, look, we don't actually think a coup like in 1964 is likely, or at least it would be likely to succeed, because in 1964, the coup had support of Brazilian business and media elites.
	And of course, Bolsonaro doesn't have those.
	We probably have some business support, but not media elites.
	But the thing is, Bolsonaro...
	Yes, he is popular with the army.
	Unsurprisingly, the army captain, who's now the president, who's pro-Brazil, he is quite popular.
	The media elites don't have guns.
	And Bolsonaro has threatened a coup in the past.
	Not even very long ago, either.
	It was only last year, where he was like, well, you know...
	If I had to.
	For some reason.
	There's not even the littlest doubt, Bolsonaro said.
	I'd stage a coup in the same day.
	Next year's elections will have to be clean.
	Either there'll be clean elections or we won't have elections.
	Much stronger words than Trump!
	I'd do it the same day.
	Okay, he's not messing around.
	Probably not.
	But I mean, you know, Brazil, South America.
	So anyway, that's the current state of play with my hero, Bolsonaro.
	I disavow the coup and any mention of a coup.
	If he commits a coup, I do not endorse it.
	That's what I think I'm legally obligated to say.
	Alright, I suppose with that, legal obligations.
	I just love the words that come out of his mouth!
	I stage a coup the same day!
	Why wouldn't I? You want a communist in charge?
	What, you men?
	Exactly!
	They're gonna get people killed!
	You ever seen that?
	Yeah, yeah.
	Yeah, like Russian garbage humans pointing out, it got scrubbed from the internet, basically.
	Cutting all this from YouTube anyway.
	Yeah, yeah, exactly.
	Let's talk about the 20-something death cult that I happened to notice while I was searching through stuff this morning.
	And you might wonder what the hell I'm talking about.
	And you may think I'm thinking of the Labour Party.
	Kind of.
	Not entirely this time around.
	Just a section of it.
	So for people who don't know, you should go and check out on the website.
	We have the Labour Party abridged conferences, which are always good fun.
	These are always brilliant.
	Everyone really likes them.
	But there's a segment of the Labour Party, of course, that is obsessed with the climate in a communistic fashion and are mad, to say the least.
	What I always find with things like Extinction Rebellion, it's like, oh, we need to protect future generations.
	Yeah, but you're also a bunch of antinatalists.
	By killing them all.
	Yeah, exactly.
	You guys hate children.
	A lot of you are just childless.
	A lot of your children will grow up childless.
	So, like, how are you protecting any future generations?
	We're not talking about Extinction Rebellion and Death Cult stuff.
	And I'm actually not to some degree.
	Oh, not this time.
	Instead, I'm talking about this sort of stuff.
	A lot of people have seen this story blow up in the UK.
	For foreigners who don't know, Captain Tom, he was the guy who was like 100 odds, walked up and down his bad garden for the NHS to raise money for it during COVID, which was very popular at the time before everyone realized that lockdowns were terrible.
	And since then, there's actually been a whole bunch of financial leaks that not all that money ended up there and ended up with family members who were running it.
	Yeah, but anyway, not getting into that.
	Instead, because this guy is still recognized as a hero in the public mind, we have End UK Private Jets here, which is a Twitter account with two people on it.
	And one of them, the lady here, decided to go down and pour human feces in a big jerry can all over the statue of him.
	Which, you can see the grimace on her face.
	She's not actually enjoying doing it either, because she's starting to realise that human feces smell bad.
	I mean, is it her own?
	I don't know who filled the can.
	Where else would she have got it from?
	It's a lot.
	She's been saving this up for a while.
	Yeah, I mean, that thing is actually...
	It's horrible!
	Am I actually doing the right thing here?
	What does Captain Tom really have to do with private jets?
	And we won't play the video because I didn't have it, but it's so disgusting.
	The video is so funny because you can see she's so upset while she does it, but also the thing is so full that you can see her trying and she's a weak woman.
	So she's like, bring it up and it doesn't really work and then she's a small and some gets on her arms or something and then she pulls it over the top and it all comes out.
	At least they didn't go on her, I suppose.
	Yeah, but she didn't even get all of that out.
	But look at this clearly sane woman.
	It's like, yeah, here I am, 21 years old, pouring human feces over a statue of a pensioner who's raising money for the NHS, wearing a shirt that says, end private jets, I'm sane.
	Captain Tom used to fly all kinds of private jets in the army.
	What's he got to do with private jets?
	He used to go here, there, and everywhere.
	But, like, why him?
	Why crap?
	Like, you know, and how many children are you planning on having?
	So they're worried about the climate affecting, what, future generations?
	Well, how many kids are you going to have?
	Maddie, 21.
	It's a tactic.
	It's a political tactic amongst the people around her and the different groups, which we'll get into in a minute.
	Just, like, sad and confused and brainwashed.
	Yeah, it's about getting attention.
	And you might think, well, why are you giving it to them?
	Because it's funny, for one.
	But also because the more you look at it, the worse it actually looks.
	I don't think this is going to result in a positive public opinion for this particular cause.
	But it's like Rebecca Black's Friday tactics of getting attention.
	Where it's like, what if we just do terrible stuff all the time?
	At least people will look at us.
	Oh look, this has got 3 billion views and 3 million likes.
	This must be a really popular video.
	I don't think that's stupid.
	But also, Maddy here, 21, former medical student, said, Every time a private jet takes off, we pour a bucket of S and blood on everything- On Captain Tom!
	Why?
	On everything Captain Tom stood for, and himself.
	What?
	It doesn't make sense.
	It's nonsensical, but whatever.
	We pour a bucket of S and blood on the NHS. Yeah.
	It's gross.
	It's weird.
	She didn't enjoy it either.
	It's philosophically incoherent.
	Yeah.
	We've got the next one here.
	You can see more of what the hell's going on.
	Because this random Twitter account I've run across actually did a very good job explaining about what the hell we're looking at.
	They say here, And that's
	no coincidence.
	It's all the same.
	So, on here you can see Maddy, 20.
	She lost a year.
	I don't know why.
	Well, she obviously had aged a year in between the...
	What, in between?
	Had her birthday.
	Yes, the day and the day this was published, the day before that.
	Maybe her birthday was that day.
	One day.
	Maybe for her birthday, she had to haul the bucket of S and pour it all over herself.
	Happy birthday, Maddie!
	Anyway, Maddie...
	This is for the planet, Maddie.
	The day before her birthday, Maddie here making a video on why she supports the end of UK private jets.
	In this video, she goes on to talk about why the genocide of all humanity is coming.
	I mean...
	I too am an anti-vaxxer.
	It's a bold claim.
	All of humanity is going to die, and that's why she's got to do it.
	Who's genociding all of humanity?
	The climate.
	So humans are going to kill all of humanity.
	Right, so we need to declare war on the climate.
	We have to defeat the climate to survive.
	Yes.
	So it's pretty out there stuff.
	And then there's her stupid boyfriend or something.
	I don't really know.
	Probably.
	Probably boyfriend here in this video on some tiny website, which is, as you can see, like an hour and 12 minutes long of them just talking about how the genocide is coming.
	And we need to do stuff to stop it.
	She actually begins it by saying...
	30 minutes in, you're like, God, I hope it is.
	At the start of it, she actually just said that she's been taught about climate change since primary school, and that's why she thinks like this.
	Oh, there we go.
	Oh.
	Yeah, good.
	So remember, writers, when you're being told the need to tell this stuff to children, there's a reason.
	Don't let leftists educate your children.
	I just love when you hear back of worker syndicates or something, right?
	And they describe themselves as, oh, we bring education to the workers.
	I mean, politicization.
	Yeah, you mean, yeah.
	Politicalize the workers.
	Yeah, exactly.
	The education to the kids in the school.
	You politicize the kids in the school into this, which is why she's ended up here, presumably.
	But if we go forward, we can see this chap.
	What's all he about?
	We have a picture here of him setting himself on fire.
	For a tennis game?
	To prove that the climate needs to be paid attention to or done.
	Again, I kind of feel that, like, you've been trapped in an ideological frame, and then at the very end of it, where you're pouring crap on stuff, or you're setting yourself a fire, it's like, was this what I wanted?
	Well, you're 20-something.
	I don't know any better, apparently.
	End UK Private Jets is a tiny new group.
	They have around at least 100 followers.
	Followers.
	Nothing, though, right?
	100 subscribers on YouTube.
	And only have two visible members, Maddy and Kay, the boyfriend here.
	I don't know if he is.
	I'm just going to keep rolling them out because it's easier.
	Throwing feces over Memorial is their second action.
	Kai set himself on fire at the Laven Cup this month.
	And then, if we go to the next link, their manifesto, a 72-minute video...
	Yeah, it's cringe when someone publishes like 500 word manifestos, but I can't even think of something stupid or like here's a 72 minute video whining about the climate.
	I'm not watching that.
	Presents a terrifying vision of the end of the world.
	All visions of the end of the world are terrifying.
	That'll be a good one this time.
	They see a near future of mass death, torture, rape, murder brought about by climate change.
	Really?
	The climate's gonna rape us?
	Oh, bit hot.
	Gonna rape someone.
	You're back.
	I love that meme.
	It was like, I'm going to murder someone disease caused by being a bit too hot for a bit too long.
	Then you start torturing people.
	Yeah.
	It can't link it, which doesn't like it, and it includes footage of horrific violence.
	Of course.
	They look normal, but they seem very scared and very intense.
	They don't look normal.
	No, that's not true.
	This hasn't come out of nowhere.
	It is the latest escalation in an increasingly extreme and fractured branch of the climate movement, which I'm really concerned is going to continue to accelerate.
	And this is where it gets interesting, because you might think, okay, two fruitcakes who started their fruitcake organisation.
	Yeah.
	But there is no logical angle to what they will do, and they're not the only ones.
	There's a lot more.
	Kai and Maddy don't give their full names, but I've worked out that Kai is actually the same guy who disrupted the Arsenal-Liverpool match in April.
	It wasn't end private jets.
	The earlier protest was by just stop oil.
	Oh, just stop oil, bro.
	Just stop it.
	Just stop it.
	Stop using oil.
	How do we make our food again?
	It's got to be solar-powered tractors, right?
	Yeah, all plastics, I think, are made from concrete.
	Yep.
	That's how that was made.
	Anyway, but it's also just...
	Mike Graham position.
	Yep.
	Just grow more concrete, bro.
	That's the company who said that when I read that.
	Just grow more concrete.
	What are you doing?
	Calm down, man.
	You have someone who just doesn't think.
	And just like these guys who are like, just stop oil, stop using it.
	But you may remember them, because they've been shutting down other stuff.
	At the time, Kai here was charged for that protest, and the man was called Louis McKinney, is what he was calling himself.
	McKinney is actually currently in prison for trying to...
	Make himself tied to a goalpost in the Everton versus Newcastle game, which...
	Okay, we're going to carry on playing.
	Bye-bye.
	But it was previously...
	I just left him tied there.
	It's like, look, bro, if the ball hits you, then that sucks.
	Yeah, look at him on the right there.
	I've tied my neck to the goalpost.
	All right, bye.
	We're all going home after this game.
	You can stay here.
	A couple of footballs to the face.
	Maybe he'll...
	Does he get the...
	If it bounces off his face and into the goal, who scores?
	I think him.
	He's headed it in.
	He could score a goal, mate, yeah.
	Anyway, he's in jail for that.
	He was previously jailed for activity with yet another group, Insulate Britain.
	Oh.
	I do remember Insulate Britain.
	If you're becoming slightly confused by all these groups and how they link together, bear with me.
	Typical global warming deniers.
	Anyone in the UK will know all of these names.
	Air Condition Britain.
	That's the protest movement we need.
	Yes, that is true.
	I'm on board with the climate agenda.
	Extinction Rebellion was founded in...
	Nuclear powered air conditioning!
	...was founded in 2018 and burst into prominence with massive city centre protests in spring of 2019, which everyone remembers in this country and thought were cringe and stupid at the time.
	What are you doing?
	Glue your hands to the pavement, you bloody morons.
	These protests had huge attendances and literally thousands were arrested.
	One of the key figures and the tactics and ideology of Extinction Rebellion was Roger Hallam.
	This guy I recognise.
	Do you recognise him?
	I do.
	I saw an interview with him.
	He was a lunatic.
	He was on GB News telling us how the world was going to end unless we did whatever he said.
	Basically, you need to make me Emperor of the Earth or everyone's going to die.
	Um, sounds like a threat.
	Yeah, it does.
	One of the proposals was that we need an elected representative government in which they meet in a council and vote on matters.
	Oh, like a parliament?
	Yeah.
	There's going to have to be some kind of executive of that council who proposed the laws.
	Well, like a government?
	Yeah.
	It was radical.
	It was really stupid.
	Oh, no, we should start listening to this guy.
	He's got some ideas.
	But it was just, yeah, throw out the parliament and replace it with the democratic council.
	All right.
	Thanks, Roger.
	From the planet Zog.
	Anyway, so...
	Stupid.
	Hallam is a farmer and an activist.
	He combines military and rhetoric with direct action calculated to cause maximum disruption.
	He predicts apocalypse in lurid detail.
	Critics of Extinction Rebellion want to believe they are hypocrites or performative.
	Hallam sincerely fears a coming annihilation.
	No, I believe that they're mental.
	No, I believe Hallam, yeah, genuinely.
	Yeah, I don't think they're...
	Like, when the woman's pouring the crap over Sir Tom, it's not that I think that she's insincere.
	You are indeed left-wing and therefore mentally ill.
	Yeah, exactly.
	It's just that in Brazil she would be acquitted for attempted murder.
	Yeah.
	We have a quote from Hallam which illustrates this belief.
	The end point of social collapse then is war played out through every city, every neighbourhood, every street.
	A gang of boys will break down your house demanding food.
	They will see your mother, your sister, your girlfriend, and they will gang rape her on the kitchen table.
	Why wouldn't they eat her?
	I don't know.
	They're demanding food.
	Whatever.
	This is his vision of the future to come, and this unspecified date.
	What's the ethnic makeup of that gang of boys?
	Oh, come on, Carl.
	We don't ask questions.
	Anyway, so...
	A very diverse game, Roger.
	No, no.
	Eton boys.
	Gang of boys from Eton.
	What ho, chaps?
	Got any sisters?
	LAUGHTER Next link.
	We can see his detailing of this.
	After initial success, a dispute emerged within Extinction Rebellion over the weather to allow him to disrupt Heathrow with drones.
	They did.
	Yeah, but he was just going to send a bunch and shut the whole thing down.
	They did.
	Yeah, but he didn't do, I believe, with Extinction Rebellion.
	Instead, he did it with his own group.
	Oh.
	Because Extinction Rebellion was like, yeah, we're mad, we're not that mad.
	I mean, it is illegal.
	Like, I don't want to crash a plane and kill a thousand people.
	Yeah, but it's also illegal.
	It's a pretty bad thing to do.
	However, a group of mild activists preferred less alienating tactics than killing a plane full of people.
	Hallam set up the first of many groups.
	Have you ever seen the film Twelve Monkeys?
	No.
	Oh my god.
	Zoomers, man.
	Are you going to tell me about it or what?
	No, I'm not going to tell you about it.
	I'm going to make you watch it.
	Honestly, Twelve Monkeys, it's a brilliant film, and this is very much the army of the Twelve Monkeys.
	Watch it, and we'll do a review of it.
	Lost on me with that explanation.
	Anyway, so Hal on Sub, Heathrow pause to do it anyway.
	Got his drones, did the thing you were talking about, and was mad.
	I believe Heathrow has now initiated electronic warfare measures around the entire runways, just in case of this happening again.
	Because there were ideas of blowing the drones out of the sky, but then I was like, where does that land?
	Can't do the fun thing.
	No.
	It's easier to do it electronically.
	He then set up a political party that went nowhere.
	Big shock.
	And then in September 2021, Hallam& Co.
	launched Insulate Britain.
	Another crazy...
	Man, you have got to watch 12 Monkeys, because this is literally...
	The story is, essentially, mental guy is convinced that the end of the world is coming and ends up bringing back the end of the world.
	Yep.
	Just saying.
	I think he's going to do it.
	Actual lunatic, yeah.
	Yeah, so it was Hallam who set up Insulate Britain, which, mentioned earlier, was the group that I believe the guy was arrested for being tied to that goalpost.
	Like Extinction Rebellion, they also blocked roads, but instead of massive protests in the centre of London, they targeted tunnels, ports, and motorways.
	Yeah, everyone was cheering for a speeding glory.
	Yeah, where the country live and not all the elites in London, so it actually matters because this actually, you know, affects the country instead of just, you know, nonsense.
	Anyway, sorry Londoners, but...
	Also, notice how they did it in September when the weather's nice.
	Yeah.
	Insulate Britain, no, we need air conditioning.
	Well, summer was warm as well.
	While more disruptive, these tactics were more alienating to everyone.
	In February 2022, many interlaborated activists were jailed, and it announced it was ending its campaign.
	But as one of the convicts, Leon McKinnon, warned, there will be something new on the cards.
	But I'm not here to talk about what's coming next.
	Next month, Just Stop Oil launched.
	Bye, Hallam.
	Big shock.
	Yeah.
	It's the same dude.
	It's literally like one guy with 120-something idiots, and they're the ones doing all of this to the country.
	All of the disruption we've been facing over the last few months is literally just these guys.
	These idiots.
	It's that simple.
	Halemov, of course, is behind Just Stop Oil.
	They have focused on protesting and sporting events, petrol stations, our agencies, our galleries, sorry, and are promising to continue in the autumn season.
	The activists seem younger than previous iterations.
	Another important shift is the rhetoric.
	Oh, these are the idiots gluing themselves to the frames.
	I remember this.
	All of these stories we've been seeing, all of them are connected.
	It's literally the same guy and his friends, except his friends are 20-somethings he can manipulate.
	Whilst Extinction Rebellion was family-friendly in tone, with a core demographic of old deers and mummies, Just Stop Oil's propaganda is about the end of the world, and therefore the language is associated with Christian preachers ranting outside tube stations.
	Yeah.
	But luckily he's found a very eager and willing audience in the...
	Children who have been brainwashed by leftists since primary school to believe that climate change is going to bring about the end of the world, and so he's got a perfect recruiting ground to create radicals from.
	Yeah, and will for years, and the numbers will only get bigger unless something is done, which, good to know.
	And UK private jets emphasised non-violence, but if you accept the basis of what they fear, any tactic can actually be justified.
	Self-simulation is unlikely to be the high watermark of the entire thing.
	And there's the reality of something that has been going on, and I didn't really understand, and it's good to see all the connecting features.
	It is literally all the same people.
	It is not something new, sprouting up organically from the grassroots.
	Shock and surprise.
	Yeah, funnily enough.
	Instead, much of left-wing politics is extra-tough to hell.
	And there's one thing, which is...
	I wonder if Soros funds it.
	Keep in mind, you have the ideological problems, like that girl being raised from primary school.
	However, there is an easy response to stop the daycare students of universities to ever go back to this sort of action.
	And it's not to go, oh, that was silly, okay, let's take you up.
	Alright, go now, you're free, you can do what you want.
	No, it's to teach them on day one to eat the ground.
	And we saw this most recently, and I think the police need to get it back in their minds.
	Because you may remember on the Insulate Britain protests, they just sat on the motorways, and then when the public intervened, they were charged with crimes.
	Yeah.
	It was ridiculous.
	Yeah, it was insufferable.
	Whereas the police do know how to do their jobs when it comes to times such as when the country suddenly becomes right-wing for a week.
	Such as, well, His Majesty here turning up to his mother's funeral.
	And as you can see, some moron.
	I don't think this guy is political, I don't know.
	But he decided to go on his roller skates down a road that was closed whilst the whole area was closed for His Majesty's arrival.
	And can you guess what happened?
	Well, I imagine he got his face kicked in.
	He certainly did.
	And it's good to watch.
	so let's play Pop it!
	Literally, just push me to the ground.
	What the hell do you think you were doing?
	Okay, I'm good.
	I didn't know, mate.
	I was going fucking fast.
	Didn't know, I just was...
	What's going on over here?
	I'm getting up!
	I'm getting up!
	Yeah, it's obviously ridiculous.
	No need to argue.
	I didn't know.
	The whole road area is closed.
	Loads of cops trying to stop here.
	What's going on?
	I'm near Westminster?
	The king's coming?
	What do you mean?
	The king?
	Not heard of him.
	You're clearly a 20-something ring, you know.
	And the defence is terrible.
	But the police there are the most impressive aspect and why I've shown that.
	Because you actually rarely see it, remember, with those people gluing themselves to the motorway.
	The police should have just turned up, pushed them into the ground, eat the dirt, alright, move them along, cough them, throw them out of there.
	And the entire country would cheer.
	No one would want anything put against the police officers.
	And instead, that was how the country would work.
	And it did work for all of one week, whilst we were right-wing.
	Bad cops must be punished severely, and the government must apologise to the wrong person.
	No.
	No.
	No one cares.
	It's literally just...
	You insane people that care.
	But there you have it.
	There's the reality of what's been happening with all the 20-something death cultists we've been seeing recently.
	It's all the same guys.
	And hell to stop them.
	Otherwise, we shall move to some other screeching leftists.
	I think that kid might not even have been politically right, he's just been an idiot.
	Yeah, might have been, but then...
	Lesson learned.
	I didn't know.
	Literally, dude, there are signs everywhere saying road closed.
	There are cops everywhere.
	There's thousands of people lining the streets.
	Every TV bus stop.
	Something must be going on.
	Everything has a message on it about the Queen's death.
	The King keeps coming here.
	Anyway.
	I suppose we'll move on to screeching to...
	No, I butchered that.
	We'll move on to screeching for victory.
	Unironically, this is the left-wing strategy to office, and it is working.
	I'm sad to say, this is a reality.
	But it just tells you how bad the Conservatives are.
	Yeah, so we'll start off with just mentioning here on the website, if you wanted to learn something conservative, you can go and check out Carl's critique of Jordan Peterson's Conservative Manifesto.
	Of course, don't know if you have something to say about this.
	Well, I mean, I'm a fan of Jordan Peterson, but I didn't think that the framing of his manifesto was sufficient to be able to defeat the left, actually.
	It seems to be much on their own terms, which means I think they'll crush them on.
	So you need to think about framing things outside of ground on which the left has a good footing already.
	And you might think that these kind of conservative conversations would be going on amongst conservative circles all the time.
	Not the Conservative Party Conference!
	No, it happens to be that.
	And if we go to the next link, we can see that you think they'd be discussing that.
	And no, instead, we were actually blindsided by the left, amazingly, being so retarded they stole the show.
	Starting off with the biggest socialist newspaper here, coming out with Celebrating Black History and Celebrate Black Culture for Black History Month, with a headline attacking the Chancellor, who was a black man, Quasi-quateng.
	With the wrong image.
	Not pictured.
	Yes.
	Before we go on though, I just have to say, I went through the panels at the Conservative Party Conference.
	It about is a third, I would say, just openly leftist panels.
	Like LGBT conservatives, or Centre for Social Justice, or the Tony Blair Institute, stuff like that.
	The Tony Blair Institute is instructing the right-wing party.
	No, no, they have panels.
	I know, I'm not joking.
	The Tony Blair Institute has a panel at the Conservative Party Conference.
	There's loads of LGBT, it's not in any way conservative.
	At least that seems to be what's coming out in the visuals.
	And we can see here just starting off with how the left managed to steal the show because the conservatives aren't doing anything interesting with the fact that they decided to celebrate black history by being racist.
	Apparently this guy's like the CEO of Bank of America or something.
	He's a black guy?
	What are you talking about?
	But then again, you know, Kua Tang isn't actually black, according to the left, remember?
	Well, yeah, that's a good point, isn't it?
	He's only superficially black.
	Didn't she get fired?
	Yes, she did.
	But if we go to the next one here, we can also see the Conservative Party.
	This is an MP who decided to post this, what, two days ago?
	Really?
	Yeah, this is him at Pride, celebrating...
	Oh, you know, there's nothing more conservative than celebrating Pride.
	Yeah, with...
	The most deadly of the deadly sins.
	Yeah.
	That's right.
	I'm a conservative.
	Look at me with my pride, my gay pride glasses on.
	I'm here to represent conservatism.
	Most people focus on the furries.
	I know, but that's just...
	I can see why.
	But if you go to the left, you can see the racial pride flags, of course.
	Yeah.
	And it's just like, yeah, okay, you guys have completely lost your way.
	LGBTQ ideology?
	Sign me up!
	I'm a conservative.
	This is what a Conservative Party conference should be a time of.
	A time for cringe.
	Well, it is, I mean...
	It's what it's become.
	You know, if we go to the next one, it could also be a time of scrapping your own Conservative policy, such as cutting taxes.
	Yeah, I know.
	And the pound rebounded, and he's like, yeah, I guess I'll take that tax off.
	Okay, whatever.
	Idiot.
	Fine.
	And also, it could be a time for being just generally embarrassing.
	Because if we go to the next one here, we can see the polling for the country.
	And if you scroll down to the graph, please, John, we can see...
	Just brutal.
	More than twice...
	The leftist retards...
	More than 30 points ahead.
	...are polling at 54%, one-party state kind of popularity for the UK. And remember, we should have looked up Keir Starmer's personal approval rating for this.
	Because everyone thinks he's really boring and don't like him.
	No.
	The reality is, of course, that the Labour Party aren't becoming increasingly popular.
	All the conservative people in this country have just left politics altogether.
	We've shown this previously with Matthew Goodwin's research.
	And as a result, it just means that Labour sit there on 54%.
	Yeah, because these are percentages.
	So the pie has got a lot smaller, and Labour own a lot more of it.
	Yeah.
	And if we go to the next image here, we can see just this, this is polling at 54%.
	Just, just, what we're looking at is a child-looking communist who turns up with his hammer and sickle shirt to quote Che Guevara at a late party conference.
	This is 30, sorry, 54% of the country.
	Right now?
	Oh yeah, Palestinian flag, of course.
	Always someone else's nationalism.
	Have we got a clip?
	Can we listen to it?
	I don't really want to.
	I do!
	It's just a boring quote about how old Che Guevara said this.
	We can if you want, we can play it.
	Yeah, let's play it, John.
	I want to hear the Che Guevara quote.
	The House of Lords is an injustice.
	So to quote Che Guevara, if you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you're a comrade of mine.
	So I ask you, comrades, to please support Composite 10, and let's get Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner into power, I can't imagine a worse endorsement.
	Right, so we've got some middle-class nerd who's turned up with, I mean, just, you know, all of these badges.
	So, to quote Shea Guevara, we need to get Keir Starmer in power.
	How embarrassing!
	He's doing a photography degree, don't you know?
	Of course he bloody well is.
	I don't know.
	I made that up.
	What else is he doing?
	He's not got a job.
	I'm not going to say that.
	Just embarrassing student politics.
	Yeah, and that isn't when the rest of the time they're pleading with you to please stop thinking of them as anti-Semites.
	I mean, please, we love...
	I mean, Jews.
	Oh, they did kick out Jeremy Corbyn.
	Yeah, we have the next one here.
	This also happened.
	In the middle of them calling speakers, this lady just seems to get like a WhatsApp message or something.
	Oh, by the way, to tell everyone that we like Jews.
	Oh, good point.
	Happy Holocaust.
	Close.
	She instead decides to read out Happy Rosh Hashanah to everyone, but like butchers the pronunciation.
	So let's play that.
	We're just about to move to this afternoon's main debate, but before we do so, I'd like to wish everybody in the Jewish community a very happy and sweet New Year, this Rosh Hashanah.
	I have never read this before in my life.
	You can tell the third of the audience that the Corbyn supporters, that are normally incredibly loud, are just like...
	Jews.
	The few.
	I think I was the mood of the room.
	Undoubtedly.
	Yeah, usually the applause is much louder.
	But also, the evidence of like, one, she butchers it, she's never read that before.
	But also, too, the idea that in the middle of just other business, she just randomly does that.
	Like, I can't get over how just out of place it is.
	By the way, I love Jews and Israel.
	Just have to say that.
	Yeah, God bless Israel.
	God bless the colonial occupies of Palestine.
	That is polling at 54%.
	Whereas, if we head back to Conservative Conference, again, the left managed to steal the show by just being so retarded.
	It's the only thing that's interesting that's going on.
	This is Tory party MPs who try to move into their own conference and just get screeched at by leftists outside.
	God, I love it when the leftists are like, you guys are such extreme right-wingers and the Conservatives are like, well, I'm on my way to a meeting with Tony Blair.
	Just going to the LGBTQ Conservative panel, I mean, you know.
	None of this happened at the Labour conference.
	Literally no one was outside preaching, except some lesbians were like, we don't like cock.
	And then they got called bigots.
	What about the Nazis?
	And that was it.
	I see the Conservatives have turned up.
	Let's look at how the left just acts.
	that's the players one of them screeching This is so angry.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Body language.
	Yeah.
	He thinks he's so angry.
	But he's never actually had a confrontation in his life.
	No, of course not.
	You can tell.
	There's more of this, because of course Jacob Rees-Mogg had to walk somewhere as well, so of course just loads of them.
	You can see there's lots of them.
	The tolerant left turned out.
	Yeah, the tolerant left turned out to screech at him again as they usually do.
	Let's play this one.
	Dramatic music One, two, three, four, five, four.
	And then something was cut wages, not welfare.
	Yeah, almost everyone here is, as you can see by the variation of signs, from an organisation, which means they're probably the staff of that organisation.
	Yeah.
	And they've all met at Tory party conference to just be a nuisance, no goddamn reason, other than to screech.
	Cut wages.
	Cut wages.
	Really?
	The left message?
	I think this is what the Conservatives have done.
	But if you go to the next one, this isn't when they're just generally screeching as well.
	I mean, this one here, they're just screeching, get out of Brum's Tory scum.
	And as you can see, there's loads of them that just turned up, just being assholes, just constantly.
	This is actually their campaigning strategy, is to screech to victory.
	And it's winning.
	I can't remember how ethnically homogenous this crowd is.
	There's that too.
	Pale, male and stale, I think is how it could be described.
	Their rhetoric.
	And if you go to the next one, there's also one where they're not just blasting music.
	It's like the blast of Benny Hill theme as well.
	We'll play that, I guess.
	I had two clappings.
	But the thing is, they just describe themselves, not the...
	They're like, you guys are the clowns here.
	Again, I love how they just bring, you know, honk-honks to their own movements at this point.
	They're looking to be turning up in clown makeup next year.
	Yeah, but you don't remember a Kelly Posy Parker's event.
	There was someone being arrested going, who do you serve?
	Who do you protect?
	And then just someone went...
	Like, with a real horn?
	It was the funniest thing.
	Did he say, well, the king?
	We should probably just send horns to everyone who goes to the left-wing protest now.
	When they start screeching at you, just pull it out and go...
	Oh, that's actually genius, Callum.
	That's actually genius.
	They say this, and he's like...
	Unironically.
	I've got to buy one.
	That's actually hilarious.
	A lot of left-wing things are fun.
	What did you say?
	Say it again.
	You're being oppressed.
	Beep, beep.
	Just stop oil!
	But we have more of this as well, which is, they then started screeching, as you can see here, wanting to lock up the opposition is undemocratic.
	We live in England, not Russia, this account screeches, as the police just say, could you please just fuck off from the entrance?
	I'm sorry I swore, but it's so insufferable.
	Yeah.
	Let's play this.
	We help break the path, yeah?
	Move out of the way!
	Move out of the way!
	Look how middle comes that way.
	Suck.
	Suck!
	I'm off!
	You! You! You! You! You! You! You! You!
	Move back!
	Yeah funnily enough you can't just block the entrance of the building.
	Move back!
	Yeah.
	Did you see the redhead there?
	Yeah.
	With the beard?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Yep.
	Unbelievable.
	As you would expect.
	Steve Bray there, of course, as well.
	Of course he is.
	Yeah, that's the thing.
	After losing the Brexit war, he's got to do something with his time.
	I kind of want to do this to the Labour conference next year.
	Part of me does want to just turn up with clown horns and start screeching commie scum, you know, go home or something like that.
	Just to give them a taste of their own medicine.
	Yeah, but we wouldn't get the same sort of treatment.
	We'd actually get clubbed.
	But that's the thing.
	If it's legal, then why is this allowed?
	And also, if they make it illegal against us, then I expect them to make it illegal against them.
	And if they don't, then we can at least take them to court, which will be fun, because we'll get cash payments.
	Otherwise, it might just be fun just to sit there with clown horns.
	God, look at the redheads.
	Sorry, this makes me laugh.
	It's outside of the Labour conference, just blaring through a giant speaker.
	Circus music.
	Yeah, exactly.
	So they're all walking in.
	That's actually genius, man.
	We should do that.
	You know what's funny?
	I'm going to clip the North Korean version of that.
	There's a compilation of the North Korean K-pop band doing foreign songs.
	There's all five.
	They're all before 1950, of course.
	So it's really weird to look at.
	But for some reason, that clown song was allowed.
	So there's footage of them doing that while Kim Jong-un sits there and it's...
	I don't think anyone's told them it means something else than just classical music, but whatever.
	It wasn't the only funny thing to come out of all of this, because there was one politician who told it like it was, and I would vote for him if I could.
	Bolsonaro?
	No.
	In the UK, he's been kicked out of the party for it.
	We shall see the news, the breaking news, if we can start this from the start, please, John, and play this.
	This is the news from the BBC Midlands.
	Let's play this clip here, which is jolly good fun.
	Good afternoon.
	Good afternoon.
	Birmingham is a dump.
	I mean, is that wrong?
	I saw them complaining about this, because this was, like, some young conservative organiser or something, wasn't it?
	And they were like, he said that Birmingham's a dump.
	It's like, and the sky's blue.
	Yeah.
	I've been to Birmingham.
	It's terrible.
	A lot of people have been there and quickly left.
	Yeah, exactly.
	A lot of people used to live there, but have also left.
	If you go to the next one, you can see, of course, the story you're mentioning here, which is this dude here, the Chad hero, which is in the chat.
	Brummie hating.
	Well, he's done nothing wrong.
	Told it how it was, which is Birmingham is a dump, and then they suspended him for this from the party.
	Of course they did!
	Hmm.
	You're not going to get votes in Birmingham, Conservatives!
	Birmingham's Labour run as well.
	This leftist-run city is an s-hole.
	You can't say that!
	You're banned from the right-wing party.
	It's just so ridiculous.
	What a joke.
	You shouldn't just parlay that into, yeah, look at what the Labour Party have done to it.
	Yeah, there are people...
	The Republicans in America would have done.
	...desperately trying to defend Birmingham's honour, which...
	Why?
	Good luck.
	It's a progressive multicultural city.
	I can't do accents.
	Well, it wouldn't be that accent anymore, would it?
	No, no, it's still got the Brum accent.
	It's really funny.
	I went there a few years ago, and I woke up to some Asian guy who's behind the train ticket counter.
	I'm just like, can I get a ticket?
	And he just replies to me in this flawless Birmingham accent.
	It was just weird.
	It was not what you expect.
	It was a strange juxtaposition.
	If you go to the next image, we can see that they have people defending it.
	This is some conservative who was upset that a conservative had said it was an asshole.
	Yeah, that is.
	Look at those glass and steel buildings.
	Yeah, which is also gross.
	Ugly.
	The thing he's trying to show off is this one water feature here, which is in traditional style, of course.
	Why don't all the buildings look like that water feature, mate?
	Other people tried to defend it with other pictures of Birmingham?
	No.
	The same place.
	There's one square in Birmingham that isn't an obvious dump.
	Traditional architecture surrounded by modernist architecture.
	Now get the pictures of the bullring.
	The giant grey concrete bullring.
	Get those pictures.
	Someone else decided to also try to defend Birmingham.
	Same picture.
	LAUGHTER I can't stop laughing how everyone who tried to defend this is like, yeah, but if you've seen this one place, there's one thing in Birmingham we still have that we try to keep clean.
	You know it's a whole city, right?
	There's a million people in Birmingham.
	Meanwhile, the rest of the city, if you just look up Birmingham, Reddit comes up with this.
	Well, it looks like Detroit.
	I don't know why he's scrolling down.
	If we can keep the image there.
	Which is just...
	Yeah, there you have it.
	Looking beautiful.
	Go and look at the bullring.
	It's just dark grey concrete.
	It's disgusting.
	Built in the 70s, I imagine.
	By the Labour government.
	I kind of...
	Is it just me?
	You see the solar panels on the houses at the back.
	Does that make it uglier?
	Yes.
	Like, there's something about it that just makes me...
	It's already not grey, but like...
	The ghettos of Cybertron.
	Yeah, it looks cyberpunk almost, but a nightmare way.
	Anyway, but if you're wondering...
	No, this is exactly the cyberpunk dystopia streams that we do.
	This is exactly it.
	And the grey sky of Britain as well really makes it.
	If you wonder if the people of Birmingham also happen to agree with this diagnosis, I suppose we'll go to our roving reporter, the happiest man in Birmingham.
	Can't play this for copyright, but you know what he has to say, and if you don't, go and enjoy the happiest man in Birmingham.
	Otherwise, that's screeching to victory, which if things stay as they are, they're going to actually do it.
	They're going to be screeching retards talking to you about Che Guevara and somehow get 54% of the vote.
	I look forward to it.
	Go to the video comments.
	Regarding the incompetence of liberals, it does not take competence to achieve catastrophic evil.
	The Gulag Archipelago shows how deeply into hell incompetence can take you.
	Communist Russia was run in possibly the most inefficient way possible by an incredibly inept government that wasted resources and labor, mismanaged money, and destroyed an agricultural system, just to name a few problems.
	They were clearly incompetent leaders, and yet they successfully slaughtered up to 60 million people.
	In short, competent leadership is not required to lead a nation or the world into hell.
	Nothing to disagree with.
	I got nothing either.
	Let's go to the next one.
	My parents grew up watching Doctor Who when they were young and kept making references to it, so when the reboot aired on BBC, I watched it and grew up watching Ecclestone all the way to Capaldi.
	It was formulative in my life, but I think I've only truly started to appreciate some of the good stories it's told now I'm older.
	For instance, remember the Cybermen and the exploration of a scientist's hubris and forcing everyone to horribly mutilate themselves against their will, and having to literally turn off their emotions to make them functional, and how when the Doctor disabled the emotional inhibitors, the unbeatable steel army suddenly were overcome with the agony of what had been done to them, killing them all painfully.
	I know it wasn't intended, but bloody hell, life really does imitate art.
	That is an amazing way of looking at that episode, and I can't believe I didn't think of it sooner.
	Actually...
	You've seen it?
	I haven't seen it.
	I'm not a Doctor Who fan.
	You've got to watch that.
	It's a two-parter.
	It's actually one of my favourites when I was a kid as well.
	But just like, they're all stood there, and then he turns off the emotional inhibitor, and all the sidemen just look at themselves, and just like, oh god, what have we done?
	We're not stunning and brave at all.
	Well, he's absolutely right that there's going to be a lot of that in the near future, I imagine.
	Yeah.
	Let's go to the next one.
	"Some people in this country are very, very rich, but most of you are very, very poor.
	Skin!
	You know why?
	Because you're all 80 mountains!" Woke comedy in the 80s was called Right On, and the comedians of the comic strip Presents were the most right on, but their output was so woke that now it looked positively based.
	We're going to close more hospitals and we're going to build more records!
	Vote Nosh.
	Yeah, I vote Nosh.
	That's the best ever I've seen in a long time.
	You know what?
	Someone should just start a meme party like that in this country and start running.
	Yeah, just this extreme based right-wing meme party.
	Yeah.
	Because, like, the Monster Raving Loony Party isn't funny anymore.
	Yeah, yeah, it's not.
	Yeah, exactly, because things are serious now, right?
	Like, back in the day, it was just, like, Monty Python-style absurdist humour.
	But it's like, no, no, no, there's genuine lampooning that could be done.
	And so, like, literally a comedy party could be at every election and be on every ballot.
	I want Sam Hyde to be the spokesman.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Just in that accent.
	He'll have to retrain from Irish.
	I'm sure he could do it.
	Let's go to the next one.
	Do any of you guys like pairing historical movies together where they have opposing narratives regarding historical figures?
	My favorite example is The Siege of Jadetville, where Moy Jambé, the villain, is laying siege to a bunch of peacekeepers during a secession from the communist Congo.
	However, the movie Wild Geese, which takes place further down the timeline, has the main characters busting Sean Bay out of prison and basically asserting that he was the guy that Kongo needed to keep it out of this horror that it wound up becoming.
	I've never even heard of it.
	I haven't either.
	I've got no knowledge of that period.
	I know it's insane and I need to look into it because it looks funny as hell.
	Kongo, of course.
	Yeah, but it's just the five-way, continent-wide civil war that's going on.
	As to comparing movies like that, I mean, it's a good idea.
	Especially over the years, if it's about the same event.
	It'll be interesting to find what kind of differences we can find, especially in the Netflix era.
	Otherwise, the next one.
	Tony D and Little Jonah, we're back!
	To spook up your October as promised.
	This time we're going to change up the rules.
	Go to the subreddit for Lotus Eaters at lotuseaters underscore com and I've created a thread.
	Post your avatar name and your status and then the part of the world in which you live and I'll look up a ghost story or a monster story or something spooktacular for this month and Halloween.
	Let's make it fun!
	Man, that is really great.
	I realise now that I really miss Tony's interjections.
	I always like these ghost stories and stupid stories.
	I think they're really great.
	I mean, you believe in Bigfoot, so...
	I didn't say I believe in Bigfoot.
	I said it's scientifically likely.
	We'll do part two soon.
	How long have you been saying that?
	Ages, but I mean...
	I've got it all prepared.
	I've got it all prepared.
	Hang on.
	We'll do it this week.
	Okay, we'll do it this week.
	We've got Wednesday afternoon free in the calendar.
	I'll put it in there.
	2021 is what I'm seeing there.
	September.
	Okay, well, it's been a year.
	I bet at the end there is actually you just saying, oh, part two coming soon.
	Probably.
	Otherwise, yeah, it's good to see you both again.
	Yeah, it is.
	Yeah, next one.
	Denmark News!
	From yesterday, it is only allowed to be 19 degrees inside of all public buildings, including schools.
	So children are going to schools wearing coats and boots.
	The Danish banking stock has gone...
	And if our Prime Minister refuses to declare election tomorrow, the opposition have declared that they are going to topple the government.
	Well, I'm going to Heidelberg next week to have a great October fest because...screw this!
	Oh yeah, it's going to be way more sensible than Germany.
	Yeah, hang on.
	Yeah, they're going to have so much more energy stability in Germany.
	I don't know about that.
	But have fun, either way.
	Just take a jumper, is all I'm saying.
	Just to be sure.
	You might end up like they're school kids.
	Also, Sophie, you do need to go and check out, if you're wanting to feel worse, the Russian streams, the gas streams.
	I don't know if I've sent you these.
	Oh yeah, they just keep getting taken down by Twitch, don't they?
	Yeah, there's now like four or five people doing it 24-7.
	And there's one guy who just has, like, because there's somewhere you just burn gas on your stove, right?
	A few of them have copied that.
	Not very entertaining.
	There's another guy who just has his radiator on, which is pretty funny.
	What, a temperature thermometer next to it?
	Yeah, 40 degrees in his house.
	I mean, it doesn't look livable.
	I mean, one guy's got 50 degrees in his house.
	It's awful.
	And then there's one other guy who's just running a constantly warm bath...
	That's his little temperature.
	It's like 30 degrees bath.
	It's steaming.
	He's got the plug halfway undone.
	So it's just constant hot water.
	Constantly wasting hot water.
	It's his money.
	It's a whole euro a month.
	It's a lot of money.
	Is that it?
	Yeah.
	Goddamn.
	God, I wish my energy bills were like that.
	You're a month.
	A month.
	Can you imagine it?
	Even during the times of plenty, it wasn't like that.
	And that's when you're still, you know, not wasting it 24-7.
	God damn it.
	But, yeah.
	Yeah, got to enjoy that.
	Let's go to the next one.
	So, I had an interesting conversation with one of my work pals the other day about the coronavirus.
	Now, keep in mind that this guy is a conservative, loves Trump, Hates political greatness.
	So technically a good type of conservative.
	When I told him about the mildness of the Omicron variant of coronavirus, he told me off.
	And then walked away.
	Without saying anything else.
	It seems that fear has gotten into him.
	Because fear is the efficient tool of management, you see.
	Well, you should just, like, send him any scientific information on Omicron.
	Because there's just no questioning it.
	It's just way milder.
	Can't believe it's the longest conversation.
	Yeah, well, we're not.
	God.
	I do find it funny every time we have to chat with the Aussies.
	I'm like, yeah, it's the coronavirus.
	I'm like, what are you talking about?
	A decade are you living here?
	Like, we're so far removed from it.
	I don't mean to be rude either, but it's just, yeah, it's...
	It's like talking about Gamergate at this point.
	I mean, it's literally over here.
	Like, nothing coronavirus-related happens here.
	Thank God.
	I think the last time someone seriously...
	Like, even an MP... I haven't even seen any masks.
	Because, like, even after it all ended, you'd still see the odd person walking around with a mask, but I haven't seen a mask in ages.
	There are a few people around us, not in our company, obviously, who do that, and you sort of look at them and think...
	Cuckoo!
	Let's buy it.
	I haven't even seen him.
	Anyway, Grant says, Tony and Little Joan, welcome back.
	After all these black pills, it's good to see you.
	Yeah, it is, honestly.
	It's really nice to see you, man.
	Wuhan Wet Market says, Carl and or Callum, one of you mentioned a YouTuber who dropped everything to become a farmer who made like $11 in his first year, but trying to figure out who that is, who was it?
	I think you're thinking of Jeremy Clarkson.
	Surely.
	It's the only one I can think of.
	Oh, yeah, yeah, because he probably...
	He wasn't a YouTuber.
	Yeah, he was probably like, yeah, I made $11 this year or something like that.
	No, so yeah, he gave up his sort of TV career, except at one point he had to go...
	He didn't give up a treat.
	They made a TV show out.
	Yeah, yeah.
	The official one, right?
	Yeah, he's a pub game.
	His job is being a farmer now with a TV show about it going on.
	And the profit from the first year of farming was, I think, £100?
	Yeah, it was really low.
	But the profit from doing the TV show is probably really high because Jeremy Clarkson's a really popular TV presenter.
	Yeah.
	It wasn't as bad as it was made out either, because he had loads of investment in the first year in new machinery and equipment and stuff, so it's like, well, you know, the balance sheet, you're actually not looking too bad.
	And at least he'd grown his own food.
	Yeah, he knows what he's doing now.
	He's saying, buy food, you know.
	But, no, it was a surprisingly good series as well, actually.
	Season 2's coming out.
	Is it?
	My wife's really looking forward to it.
	She really enjoyed it.
	His farm's on Instagram, started following it.
	Oh, really?
	But there's spoilers, if you watch it.
	Oh, no, I'm not watching spoilers.
	You find out what other things he's going to do, which sounds so stupid.
	Ooh, he might do some more farming.
	Maureen says, I would prefer any candidate who defends conservative values while also rejecting political correctness in these times.
	They will probably be the most suitable person to defend the nation.
	And seeing how the election is going in Brazil at this moment, a lot of Brazilians share this view, even if pre-election polls give da Silva a commanding lead.
	Well, 99% of the votes are counted, and da Silva's like 6 million votes ahead, so...
	Fingers crossed Bolsonaro.
	But apparently there are 150 million potential voters and only like 110 or so voted.
	Who knows.
	Drew says, I asked that famous libertarian fascism I've heard so much about.
	Yeah, no, the people who call Bolsonaro fascists are just communists who don't know what fascism is and view any opposition to communism as fascism.
	Murray says, One thing I love about Jair Bolsonaro is his style of critique against the work agenda, particularly when they profane the nuclear family and traditional values.
	He just cuts right to the core and goes hard and unapologetically.
	Who knows?
	Drew says, You can compare this with other similar figures with good oration skills, such as Putin, who is more meticulous and methodical in his approach.
	Putin demonstrates his skill using a scalpel, Bolsonaro does it using an axe.
	Whenever he's just yelling in their faces...
	Because that's an interesting thing, because with Bolsonaro, you know it's him.
	There's no speechwriter, because it's so from himself.
	Because he's just speaking.
	But with Putin, I do wonder, because I know there's some sort of presidential team around him, and a series of advisors.
	Like, more so than a PM or something, right?
	Yeah.
	And so I do wonder how much of it is him, how much of it isn't, or...
	Well, I've seen where he's had an audience, a public audience, where he's just spoken about issues.
	And he does it quite fluidly.
	But I don't know if it's...
	You know, you and your men sit down and make the narrative.
	Yeah, I don't know.
	From the facts, obviously, from how they see it.
	But still, it comes out mixed with the truth analyzed.
	I mean, maybe.
	I don't know.
	But he seems like a fairly fluid speaker when he's just given a stage to speak on.
	So...
	Kevin says, the Brazilian economy has always been mismanaged.
	Back in the 70s or 80s, the government decided to print a 10 centavos note on the basis that paper was cheaper than metal.
	They had almost completed production before they realized it was costing 20 centavos to produce each 10 centavos note.
	Sorry, I'm distracted by the word savantos.
	That just sounds stupid.
	Oh, sorry, centavos.
	That's even worse.
	Yeah, savantos is better.
	Centavos.
	Either way, I can't take this currency, really.
	I don't think anyone...
	Kevin says, now, Bolsonaro putting guns in the hand of the public was good, but you have to go a long way to beat his decision to make it okay to kill motorcycle muggers.
	Right, so I was going to mention this, right?
	But I couldn't actually find a source that showed any details about...
	Because I've heard it said that Bolsonaro at some point...
	It's decriminalized because they've had a real problem with moped thefts and muggings and stuff.
	And so Bolsonaro's like, okay, we can just run them over.
	And that's where all the videos of people on mopeds who are trying to hold people up getting run over come from, apparently.
	But I couldn't find any actual sources that would confirm this.
	I didn't want to just say it because it sounds ridiculous.
	But I think it is actually true.
	That's great news.
	I'd love that.
	It's brilliant.
	And there are loads of videos of just like, you know, someone in Brazil mugging someone and then just someone screaming off the road.
	It's just...
	100% deserved.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Ancapistan.
	I got really mad the other day.
	I saw a clip from London.
	There's this guy who mugs some woman and he starts running and some chad comes out and he's just like, whatever.
	Takes him down, puts him on the floor, a couple of other people come in, get him down.
	The guy who knocks him goes to get up and call the police.
	Are they fucking...
	Losers come over because he's screeching about, oh, my neck hurts, my neck hurts, you've got to stop.
	And they come over, oh, what's he done, what's he done?
	They're like, he's a thief.
	And they get to the point where they get him, like, stood up.
	And he's about to just obviously run off.
	But some guy, thankfully, just has hold of his shirt.
	And all these people are, oh, just let him go, just let him go.
	Shut up, you leftist.
	None of those people deserve the vote.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, no, I totally agree.
	Colin says, of course, the left arts think that Bolsonaro's dream is a dystopia.
	Their idea of utopia is Brave New 1984.
	Well, that's exactly right.
	Bolsonaro is like, hey, why don't you just have loads of freedom from the government?
	And so you can live your lives.
	It's like, oh, can you imagine this dystopia?
	Everyone's armed.
	They're keeping their own money.
	The government isn't even robbing them blind.
	I can't live like this.
	I'm moving to North Korea.
	That's exactly it, though.
	I can't live like this.
	That's how they feel about it.
	Bald Eagle says, Brazil rife with corruption in the government.
	I see this upcoming election was the most secure and safe election ever.
	Yeah, I saw a BBC article about this just being like, you know, there's no reason to think that there'd be electoral corruption in Brazil.
	I see there's only every other kind of corruption.
	Why would there be vote ringing in Brazil?
	I mean, of all the places, how dare you, sir?
	How could you suggest such a thing?
	It's like, come on.
	It's weird how we now have to think that every election on Earth is perfectly stable and secure just because the US elites shat themselves.
	And it's also because YouTube will de-platform us if we don't.
	I know, right?
	But it's madness.
	Yeah, I know.
	Zimbabwean government, 100% perfect elections.
	You see, Burkina Faso got.
	Yeah, exactly.
	99%?
	Yeah, it's kind of ridiculous.
	Um...
	But anyway, JC says, who'd have thought that the whitest of pills was Brazilian in flavor?
	Well, he's probably going to lose, to be honest.
	I am certain that, you know, shenanigans notwithstanding, it does seem that he won't be able to pull out six million.
	Six million guns.
	Yeah.
	Who knows?
	Robert says, you guys are so wrong on January 6th, it was super violent because someone shat on a desk, supposedly.
	Yeah, Baked Alaska getting into Nancy Pelosi's office is one of my personal highlights of that.
	Because, like, who are these morons?
	Like, who are these morons?
	Like, they're internet morons.
	Like, what are they doing?
	Internet morons are currently in Nancy Pelosi's office throwing papers on the floor.
	This is just an amazing moment in American politics.
	You guys didn't think to steal anything of use.
	No, someone took a laptop.
	I can't remember who it was, but someone did take a laptop.
	To get out?
	Yeah, and the FBI were chasing them for it.
	I can't remember how that resolved.
	But someone did take a laptop.
	Just leak it on the dark web.
	Make it free.
	Yeah.
	But the whole thing was just an absolute clown show.
	You could put the Benny Hill music in the background of it, and it would fit perfectly.
	You just can't go into all political events now with little honks.
	Maybe.
	Honestly, that's a brilliant idea when a leftist gives you some ideological opponents.
	Honk, honk.
	Hang on, I've got something for this.
	Andrew says, If the left wanted lockdowns in Brazil, surely they could lock themselves up.
	It's always about imposing their will on others, isn't it?
	Yes, it is.
	That's exactly it.
	George says, Bolsonaro is one of the few world leaders who mocked the alphabet madness.
	Even Trump used a rainbow flag in his campaign to pander to these lunatics.
	Yeah, I know.
	This is what I mean.
	Bolsonaro is just, I don't care, you're evil, and I'm going to take over the country if I lose the election.
	I just...
	I like the Chad energy.
	I just imagine any left-wing protest now is going to be a gag of, like, right-wing clown people in full makeup, just around.
	Diversity is our strength.
	It's just, like, ten guys around all dancing.
	Well, it really is the clown world meme being reified, isn't it?
	Rad Checkles Right says, imagine being an adult and resorting to making a public mess with human feces to get the attention of your despondent parents.
	Like a spoiled infant.
	I'm sorry, but at the time you're 20, it's time to deal with your daddy issues appropriately instead of bottling human feces for vandalism.
	Ah, yes.
	Imagine being a hard model.
	Do you have to keep doing it in the bucket?
	Could you not?
	It's starting to make the room smell, dearie.
	I'm trying to save the world, man.
	That's exactly the reason she's doing it.
	I've got a crab in this bucket or else the human race dies.
	I'm going to pour it on Captain Tom, man!
	What, the old guy from the DHS during the lockdowns?
	Yeah, it's all those jets!
	I've paid for a new toilet.
	You can have it just to yourself if you want.
	Thomas has got a great name for them, Pink Eye Rebellion.
	Alex says, There is a black and white picture of a monk self-immolating as he sits in quiet meditation as he is burnt.
	That young idiot pours lighter fluid on his arm and screams at how hot it is when he lights it.
	Protesters have lost all strength and dignity.
	Wow, that's never a true word spoken there.
	This isn't a phase, man.
	Tish Potato says, I wonder whether anyone screaming Tory scum out of Brum is actually from Birmingham.
	I'd be surprised if they were from anywhere further north than Bristol.
	That was a good point, actually.
	I didn't hear any Birmingham accents, because the Birmingham accent is very thick and very noticeable.
	So, good point.
	No, that's the most from London.
	Yeah, of course they are.
	Omar says, We have a problem where a bunch of 20-somethings have the ignorance of children, but the agency of adults.
	It's never been more relevant to say that you should come to an understanding of something before you try to destroy or change it.
	Unfortunately, for the sake of it, it's a feature of progressivism, not a bug.
	Yes, that is true.
	Free World says, Nightmare Scenario.
	Sir Keir Starmer gets voted into power and then the Corbynites have a coup against him getting into power.
	Well, on the plus side, Keir does seem to have been putting the knee on the neck of the Corbinistas somewhat, so I'm actually not terribly worried about that.
	It's just the problem is, he's a thorough and unapologetic Blairite, and so he'll just do everything Tony Blair did, which is how we got to this position in the first place.
	So it's like another 20 years of Blairism, thank you.
	Which more do you reckon he's going to open the borders?
	Well, it can't be any more than the Conservatives.
	Probably just keep it a million a year.
	NHS, not enough money down that black hole.
	Oh, good point.
	We should have more internet restrictions.
	I mean, let's be fair.
	We don't want people calling each other names on the internet, of all places.
	That's the pain, though, because it's so continuity.
	Yeah, exactly.
	It's just the continuation of the Blairite Project under Keir Starmer, and he's just completely committed to it.
	Otherwise, we're out of time.
	So, if you'd like more from us, of course, go to Delosiers.com.
	Otherwise, we'll be back tomorrow at 1 o'clock.
