Most Educated Non-American

|
| I just had an interesting conversation with a French national in a gun store in Texas. | |
| I was in the store and it just struck up a conversation. | |
| With this guy, and he's obviously French. | |
| He spoke with a very noticeable French pronunciation, but he had good English. | |
| And he's a concealed carry holder in Texas, so he's, I guess, a citizen of America. | |
| And he knew more about American politics and what's going on in Washington and the deep state and President Trump and all this stuff. | |
| He knew more than, I would say, 99.99% 100% of most Americans. | |
| I mean, the guy was incredibly well-informed. | |
| And the reason I mention this, I like to interact with people out in public When I can, but sometimes it's not safe to do so. | |
| So I never go to places where it's pre-announced that I'm going to be there unless I have security arranged. | |
| But, you know, I just go to random locations at random times, you know, a random restaurant or a random grocery store or one of many various gun shops where I know what they specialize in, whether it's ammunition or bolt-action rifles or what have you. | |
| This is the way I encounter people, and I like to talk with people as I do this because I find it very fascinating to learn what people know or what they think about what's happening. | |
| But this guy wins the prize for the most educated non-American in America. | |
| He was, like, really well-educated. | |
| But in contrast to that, it reminded me of how little most Americans know about what's happening in their own country. | |
| The masses are oblivious. | |
| They truly are. | |
| Now there are a few informed individuals, a relatively small number, let's say, I don't know, maybe 1% of the population. | |

Independent Media Matters
00:08:32
|
|
| We'll call it like 3 million, okay? | |
| Just as a guess, 3 million people. | |
| And most of those 3 million people probably are familiar with my work or the work of other independent media sources, and they get good information from the independent media. | |
| They can't believe that they are surrounded by the other 99% who are totally oblivious and clueless to everything that's happening. | |
| And you're probably one of the 1% of the most informed, so you're probably nodding your head like, yeah, I know. | |
| And it's your encounters with family members sometimes or friends or social gatherings. | |
| Maybe you go out with old friends that you haven't seen for a few years. | |
| You get together with them now and you realize, oh my God, they are clueless. | |
| They're completely stupid. | |
| They have no idea what's happening in the world. | |
| Yes, this has happened to us all. | |
| It's like you can never go back really to your high school friends or your college friends because they're very different now. | |
| They're not informed anymore. | |
| You know, remember back in college, I don't know if this is a bit of a tangent here, but back in college I remember like all of us We're independent creative thinkers, and we all had plans to do really cool, amazing things in the world. | |
| And I go back to people I knew in college, and most of them, with some exceptions, but most of them have not done jack crap in the world. | |
| They're just working for pharmaceutical companies or working for a payroll company or whatever. | |
| And all those dreams and all those visions Just fell apart, and now they're just conformists. | |
| And that's the way the system wants it. | |
| The system wants everybody to be a conformist. | |
| And one of the easiest ways to do that is to tie you in financially. | |
| So you get a paycheck from a company. | |
| So you can't speak out, really, because the company might yank your paycheck if you say the wrong things. | |
| And this is why the best voices in independent media are people who run their own shops. | |
| I mean, that's what independent should mean, right? | |
| So independent media should mean people who run their own shops. | |
| If you have a journalist working for CNN, of course that journalist is constantly lying to you because that's their job. | |
| Their job is to be an actor. | |
| They're told what to say. | |
| They're told how to say it. | |
| They're told which phrases to use to say it. | |
| They can't say what they really want to say. | |
| And that's why a lot of people leave CNN or they leave NBC or the mainstream media and they start their own independent operation. | |
| Usually they make a lot less money because it's hard to earn a living being an independent journalist. | |
| But for many people, that's fine. | |
| They have their freedom. | |
| They have their voice. | |
| They're pursuing something that matters. | |
| And they're not a slave to the system. | |
| So independent journalists are very courageous people, and they're people who are willing to, well, they value truth more than they value just a paycheck. | |
| I mean, everybody's got to have a paycheck, but I admire people who value truth more than the money. | |
| And there are a lot of people out there like that. | |
| Cheryl Atkinson is one of them. | |
| You know, Gary Franchi, I believe, is another who's doing great work. | |
| There are many individuals who deserve to be recognized. | |
| You know, so many out there. | |
| Lots of websites that I've mentioned frequently. | |
| A lot of sites that you can see on censored.news. | |
| Again, censored.news is the website. | |
| You can see real-time headlines from many different censored news sources. | |
| But a lot of people deserve recognition for being strong, independent-minded journalists. | |
| And they're the ones that you should listen to. | |
| They're the ones telling the truth. | |
| And what's really crucial to understand is that you're going to get a different report every day from each of those individual journalists because there is no central memo that they're given. | |
| They're not told what to say. | |
| They don't get orders from headquarters. | |
| They decide what to cover. | |
| They decide what to say. | |
| They decide what's important news for their audience, just like I do. | |
| I don't know if you know this, but every day I go through dozens of headlines, stories, sometimes academic research that's harvested by my research staff. | |
| And then I get to approve which articles we're going to cover or which articles that we're going to ignore because there's not enough space. | |
| And so every day, to me, it's like a goldmine thing. | |
| Of stories that are out there, amazing stories, and I get to choose like the top, the most amazing stories to cover. | |
| And so that's why you see such a strong focus on stories about natural medicine or liberty or sometimes new inventions for future technology, sometimes space exploration. | |
| Did you know I have a website called space.news? | |
| And it's about space travel and space exploration and astronomy and discovery of life on other planets and things like that. | |
| So, you know, it's interesting. | |
| Check it out, space.news. | |
| I know, it's like every podcast I tell you about another website we have. | |
| And people are like, how on earth do you run all these websites? | |
| Ha! | |
| Well, there's some trade secrets of how we run all these websites, but we do. | |
| So space.news is one of them. | |
| But anyway, getting back to the main point, you know, individual journalism is where the action is really at. | |
| If you want the truth about what's going on in the world, that's where you need to turn. | |
| And getting back to the Independent media sources. | |
| Most Americans just read whatever news source by default comes up on their phone or whatever just shows up on the screens at the airport or whatever. | |
| They're at a hotel and there's a USA Today newspaper. | |
| They just read that. | |
| They don't realize it's socially engineered, largely fake news. | |
| It's a narrative that's pushed by the establishment in order to limit your freedom, limit your awareness, and keep you as a slave to the system. | |
| It's only when you go to the independent media that you become free. | |
| That's actually a really important point I'm going to make in another broadcast coming up soon. | |
| But independent media sets you free. | |
| Mainstream media keeps you enslaved. | |
| So keep all that in mind. | |
