MAGA Conservatives Abandon ALL PRINCIPLES to Support Government Violence Against Americans
Mike Adams condemns MAGA conservatives and self-proclaimed Christians for abandoning principles like the Second Amendment, defending Alex Pretty’s fatal shooting by ICE despite his legal armament while mirroring anti-gun Democratic rhetoric. He highlights $8M spent by ICE on pro-surveillance propaganda, comparing it to COVID-era vaccine push tactics, and accuses these groups of endorsing violence—including Israel’s October 7, 2023, actions against Gaza civilians—as "Satanic" hypocrisy. Adams insists true principle-based individuals reject manipulation, prioritizing moral consistency over popularity or financial gain, warning that such betrayals will backfire when power shifts. [Automatically generated summary]
One of the most extraordinary things about psychologically amplified events, such as this shooting of Alex Pretty, a nurse in Minneapolis, who was clearly a left-wing protester who opposed ICE, but he was assaulted and beaten to the ground.
His pistol was taken away, and then he was shot and killed by ICE agents after he was disarmed.
This kind of event has a fascinating silver lining, even though the event itself is rather tragic and psychologically very disturbing to our nation, to everyone.
But the silver lining is that it brings us great clarity in understanding who operates with principles and who has only been faking it this entire time.
And that's the focus of this podcast.
I'm Mike Adams.
Thank you for joining me here today.
And I am a person of principle.
I know that you know that.
And I'm not claiming to be perfect, but I always strive to operate with consistent principles.
And as a result, those principles clearly have to apply to everyone.
I believe that all people are equal in the eyes of God and that we all have human rights.
I believe that we all have Second Amendment rights and we all have First Amendment rights.
And that doesn't matter whether you're left-wing or right-wing, liberal, conservative, independent, black, white, Christian, Muslim, Jew, whatever the case may be, you have these same rights.
And I actually believe in principles, which I know it seems strange that I would have to say that, but what I'm explaining here in this podcast is that the vast majority of those who like to cosplay as having principles, it turns out they don't actually have those principles at all.
They're only faking it the entire time.
And we see this in many examples, not just with the shooting of Alex Pretty, where we have conservatives who once claimed to be pro-Second Amendment, all of a sudden denouncing the use of guns or just citizens even carrying a gun in a concealed holster, not brandishing it, not threatening anybody with it, but just having it on their person.
All of a sudden, you have the MAGA movement or about three-quarters of MAGA are saying that if you carry a gun, you deserve to be shot and killed by federal agents.
Where now you have Democrats and people on the left arguing in favor of the Second Amendment, specifically the Second Amendment right of this individual, Alex Pretty, to be able to legally carry this weapon.
So the very first thing we notice is that conservatives, about 75% of them, really don't have any principles.
They only fake like they do, but when it comes down to applying those principles, such as the right to keep and bear arms, they fold.
And they say, oh, no, no, he didn't have the right at all.
So all of a sudden, the slogan, don't tread on me.
You know, you've seen the flag, the snake with the yellow background, don't tread on me, has now become, in the minds of about three-quarters of Trump supporters, stomp on my face, daddy.
You know, strike me in the neck with your jackboot over and over again because don't tread on me is apparently ancient history.
And when you see so many conservatives now using the language of the Democrats, which is anti-gun rhetoric, claiming things like well, he had two fully loaded magazines, oh my god, that that must be proof of intent to massacre law enforcement nonsense like that which has been uttered by Kash Patel, the FBI director, and others,
then you know you're dealing with people who have no principles and, in Kash Patel's case, not even any simple understanding of the law that his entire agency is supposed to enforce.
Does Kash Patel really not know that it's perfectly legal to carry a firearm with an unlimited number of magazines?
You can walk around with 10 magazines if you want.
There's no law against carrying magazines.
I mean not that i'm aware of, but I live in Texas, so you know, check your own state laws.
But almost everybody I know carries at least two magazines and a lot of people carry three firearms.
Instructors always carry three.
Former cops usually carry two or three magazines.
Why?
Because they know what happens.
You get into a firefight, you know your.
Your mag malfunctions or something happens, your mag drops out of the gun failure to load.
I don't know, it didn't latch into the mag catch and the mag drops out.
You don't have time to fish around on the pavement for your magazine.
You grab a fresh mag, you pop that magazine in, you know, you rack the slide, you're back up and running.
It could save your life.
Of course you carry extra magazines.
Everybody does.
Who's serious about concealed carry?
And also it's it's supposed to be a universal principle that we have a first amendment right, which is the right to be on, you know, in a public place uh, off the side of a public road, filming police doing their job.
That is not interfering with police business, to be standing back and filming police.
Morality and Resistance00:13:04
And yet we've.
We've now entered this era where so many conservatives say well, he was, you know impeding uh, law enforcement and therefore he deserved to be shot.
Well I, I don't know how filming law enforcement is impeding law enforcement.
And then, if they come over to you and attack you and then they scream that oh, you're resisting arrest, resisting arrest, while they're beating your face with a pistol and they're beating you to the ground and you're on your knees and they still scream you're resisting arrest, I don't know what you're supposed to do that is not resisting arrest.
I mean there's it's, This is Orwellian, this claim that I guess unless you're already dead, then you're resisting arrest.
Oh, you're breathing!
You're resisting arrest by your breathing.
How dare you breathe?
These are insane concepts, but this is what's being pushed by much of the conservative base now that have completely abandoned principles.
Now, this isn't the first time we've seen something like this.
We saw this after October 7th, 2023, with Israel versus Gaza and the Palestinians.
What did we see?
Oh, we saw so-called Christians who claim to be followers of Christ.
We saw them endorse and promote the mass killing of hundreds of thousands of children and women and doctors and the genocidal destruction of residential buildings, hospitals, mosques, Christian churches, universities, the mass blowing up of everything in Gaza while Christians cheered.
It goes without saying that that is anti-Christ.
Christ himself, Yeshua, as we say, would never have endorsed such actions against any human being.
Christ taught love and peace and universal acceptance and understanding.
Love thy neighbor.
And Christ also taught principles of understanding that all human beings are children of the same God.
Whether or not they have the same belief, they are still children of the same Creator.
And thus, this idea that you can carry out genocide and war crimes and ethnic cleansing in the name of Christ is, of course, a total abandonment of the principle of Christianity in the first place.
But that didn't stop some very large segment of Christians from pushing that.
So if you think about it, it's quite fascinating.
Here we've covered so far.
You have conservatives that have abandoned conservative principles.
And you have Christians that have abandoned Christian principles.
Whereas the Satanists out there, they're very consistent on what they are pushing.
They are all in for Satan.
They're pushing Satan full force and they never sway from that agenda.
For them, it's Satan all the way.
They're not suddenly going out and betraying their Satan God by going out and doing good deeds, you see.
Whereas Christians are running around promoting Satanist type of activities and claiming that it's Christian.
So although Satanists are evil, they are consistent.
They are doing what they promised to do.
They're promoting Satan, you know, 24-7.
And you could say they actually have stronger faith in their Satanism than Christians have in Christ.
Because so many Christians don't follow Christ, don't follow what Christ taught.
The Satanists are absolutely following what Satan is teaching, you know, suffering, pain, destruction, death, all the horrible things.
They're tied into that.
They are faithful to that.
The Christians, one day, it'll be, oh, love and peace, and let's go to church.
And the next day, it's like, kill them all, bomb them, you know, make the children bleed.
That's what so many Christians have become.
So we live in a society right now where almost no one has any principles.
There are a few, probably most of you listening, and the people who actually have principles tend to be those who are more intelligent because they ponder these things.
They think about this.
They sort of reason their way through the idea of adhering to a moral code.
Whereas the people who don't have principles or who easily surrender them, like the conservatives right now who are just abandoning the Second Amendment and the First Amendment, they tend to be low IQ people.
And there are a lot of low IQ Trump supporters.
I mean, I don't know what percentage they represent, but there's a lot of stupid Trump supporters out there.
And they really don't have even the cognitive capability to think about what are principles.
So they don't have any.
They're just NPCs who just re-voice or regurgitate whatever is the current talking point.
You know, ICE is good.
ICE is always right.
Whoever they shoot deserved it.
You know, those are the talking points of extremely low IQ people who are not smart, who are not informed, who don't have moral reasoning, who don't have higher cognition, etc.
And you've seen them.
You know, we've all seen them.
We've all heard them.
And also the same thing is true for those Christians that abandon the principles of Christ.
They're low IQ Christians.
Now, of course, there are plenty of high IQ Christians out there as well, but there's a pretty good portion of low IQ Christians who don't actually think through anything.
Again, they're just regurgitating.
That, oh, we're Christians, therefore we have to support Israel because those who bless Israel will be blessed, blah, blah, blah.
It's like Senator Ted Cruz repeating what he learned in Sunday school 50 years ago.
It's just completely insane.
And these people are low IQ.
They don't think through anything.
They're just regurgitating.
And thus, since they have no adherence to actual principles, they're easily swayed by Trump himself or the media or influencers or whatever may happen or, you know, just psyops.
They don't have an anchor of values or principles that they can fall back on.
They're just blowing in the wind.
You know, whatever argument comes their way, whether it's like, you know, let's bomb Gaza today or let's shoot Americans in the streets of Minneapolis, whatever it happens to be, they just latch on to it because they have no moral code.
They have no internal anchor.
And there are a lot of people in that qualification who were MAGA or who are Christians or who voted for Trump.
Lots of them.
Not all of them.
I'm not saying everybody who's MAGA is like this, but it's an alarming percentage.
And what's especially concerning about this is that much of the criticism of the left from conservatives has focused on what?
Lack of morality of the leftists.
So for decades, conservatives have been lecturing Democrats and saying, well, you lack morals.
You lack family values.
All your LGBT things are a betrayal of God's teachings about morality.
You know, things like that.
Or saying that, you know, your transgenderism is a violation of the moral code.
So it's all this morality, these demands that leftists are bad because they are immoral, because they don't have a value system.
And then it turns out that the majority of conservatives and Christians don't have a value system at all, as we've just been talking about.
So the hypocrisy is pretty bizarre.
It's sort of like, well, the left believes that it's okay to mutilate children in the name of transgenderism, but the Christian right believes it's okay to bomb children in the name of Zionism.
So neither one has any principles at all.
And that's why I say we are living in the era of the abandonment of real moral principles.
Very few people live by principles.
And you know why that is?
Because you're not accepted into any political party or any system, any group.
They don't want you.
You know, a church doesn't want you.
The Democrat Party doesn't want you.
The MAGA movement doesn't want you if you have actual principles.
What all these groups want out there, including churches or Democrats or whatever groups are out there, what they want is obedience to their agendas.
Oh, you can be part of this group as long as you just accept what we are teaching and never question it and never apply some other moral standard.
We're going to tell you what it is.
We're going to tell you when it's okay to shoot Americans in the streets or we're going to tell you when it's okay to mutilate the genitalia of children.
And if you question this, then you're not welcome in our group.
So actually having universal principles makes you very unpopular in a society dominated by insane people.
And that's where we are.
We are living in a society of widespread mental health instabilities, insanity, ignorance, and evil.
And in that system, almost everybody who claims to have moral principles is faking it.
They really don't.
Again, you know, the conservatives who on January 6th, 2021, they were like, we have the right to be here.
We have the right to, you know, block the counting of votes here of the Electoral College because you guys rigged the election.
We're going to interfere with a government operation here because you rigged the election.
And then five years later, those same conservatives are saying, oh, well, Alex Predi, he was interfering with official government business.
Therefore, the federal agents had the right to shoot and kill him.
And as I said in a post online, I said, just wait until MAGA of 2026 finds out what MAGA of 2021 did on January 6th because they were interfering with official government business and they also impeded traffic and they did not consent to the commands of law enforcement.
So according to MAGA of 2026, everybody who was at the protest on January 6th should have been shot by federal officers and killed.
MAGA of 2026 would argue that that's perfectly acceptable, except for the fact that if all the MAGA people of 2021 had been shot and killed, they would not exist in 2026 because they're the same people.
That's my point.
They are the same people.
So they're the same people, but they abandoned their principles, which means they never had them.
So it is by definition that if you have a principle, it's not something that is just easily changeable based on the political winds of the day.
Does that make sense if it's a principle?
It should outlast any election, any administration, the coming and going of whoever's in charge.
If it's a principle, it's something that should perhaps last a lifetime.
There may be rare cases where you learn something new, you change your understanding in a profound way, or you went off and took ayahuasca or something.
And then now you have a different principle, perhaps.
Different Principles, Different Cases00:05:09
I've heard that that happens to people from time to time.
But that's pretty rare.
For the most part, if you have actual principles, they should be stable and consistent.
Like, for example, I have a universal principle that says all human lives have value.
All human lives, all humans are children of God.
Every human life has value, and that every human being has human rights.
And those rights include things like access to knowledge or the right to keep the product of your own labor, the right to be free from slavery, the right to be free from violence, etc.
The right to defend your property and defend your person.
See, these are fundamental human rights that I believe apply to all humans.
But Zionist Christians don't believe in human rights.
They don't believe that those rights apply to all humans.
They believe that those rights are reserved only to one group of people that they think was selected by God to rule over all others and to slaughter anyone they wish.
That's literally what Christian Zionists believe, which tells you what, they have no principles.
They've been deceived.
So they're not following Christ, obviously.
They're not following God.
What are they following?
Well, believe it or not, they're following Satan.
So they're actually Satanists, which is the most consistent principle system of carrying out evil on a consistent basis.
So a lot of Christians think that they are following Christ or they say that, but in reality, they're following Satan, you see?
And there are many examples like this across the spectrum of different political parties and different persuasions and different religions, etc.
And I'm not picking on Christians.
This can happen in any religion.
There can be, for example, there can be radicalized Muslims who, even though maybe they've read the Quran and they grew up practicing Islam and they worship Muhammad as the prophet, but then they become radicalized and then they go off and they say, well, we think that Muhammad wants us to do this thing over here and they end up committing violence or a bombing or something.
That's also Satanism because that's not what Islam actually teaches, it turns out.
So any religion can be deceived into Satanism.
It can happen with Sikhs.
It can happen, you know, with Hindus.
I've never heard it happening with Buddhists, but maybe there's been a Buddhist that became a Satanist.
I doubt it, but I suppose technically it's possible.
I would be surprised if that were the case.
So whatever your principles are, I've shared a couple of mine with you.
Like, I believe in fundamental human rights.
I also believe in the principle of telling the truth, exposing the truth, and exposing corruption.
Those are some of my principles.
I believe in protecting nature.
I believe that animals deserve to live.
I believe it's wrong to abuse animals, for example, or to shoot them for sport.
See, so those are some of my beliefs.
You may or may not share those beliefs.
That's up to you.
But whatever your principles are, I ask you, are they consistent?
Do you actually live with those principles day to day?
What about when they are challenged?
Do you go with what's popular or do you stick with your principles?
Because I guarantee you, if you stick with your principles, you will become hated by a large segment of society.
Because society has no principles.
The vast majority of people have no principles.
They are a mindless mob of pretenders who are pretending to be Christians or pretending to be conservatives or pretending to be even liberals or pretending to promote human rights or whatever.
In very few cases do they actually believe and follow what they claim to worship or to adhere to, in very few cases.
And that's why when you have, for example, you have Christian pastors who are nothing but obedient propagandists for genocidal Israel, you know that they are people who have no morals and no soul.
I mean, literally have no anchor to their soul.
They are lost souls, especially when they do it in the name of Christ.
That's somehow more of a violation of God's cosmic laws, you know, to do it in the name of Christ.
Why Principles Matter00:14:26
But there are lots of other examples of people doing insane things that violate what they say they stand for.
Right now, we have a lot of conservative commentators that previously have been well known for calling out mass government thugs under the Obama administration or under the Biden administration and being very concerned about the overarching power of FEMA and talking about FEMA camps and talking about federal agents and checkpoints on roads that are even hundreds of miles inside the border, you know.
And then now these same conservative commentators, or many of them, are saying, no, ICE can shoot whoever they need to shoot.
This is necessary because we have to get rid of these illegals.
And thus they're arguing that the ends justify the means.
That's their argument.
What does that tell you?
They don't have principles.
In essence, they're saying that in order to deport illegals, we're going to abandon all the principles and the rule of law and the Constitution and the Bill of Rights that we've been defending for the last decade or more.
We're going to abandon all that because we have to surrender the entire Bill of Rights and the entire Constitution and all civil protections in order to deport illegals.
That's what their argument is.
And what does that tell you?
They have no principles.
Because even if you achieve that, even if you manage to deport all the illegals, then what are you left with?
You're left with living in a police state run by a government that respects no civil rights.
And is that a win?
Well, we got rid of all the illegals.
Guess what?
Now ICE is looking for something else to do.
They're coming for you.
Their role is just going to shift to shooting Americans.
I mean, law enforcement doesn't just go away after it's been granted a big budget and some big important role.
They're not going to say, well, our job is done.
Let's just shut it down and we all go home.
You know, job well done.
No.
They're going to say, well, what else can we do to justify our existence?
And they'll start either looking for trouble or causing trouble, you know, like Waco style.
Anything to justify their existence, like the ATF did back, what year was that, 1993, I think?
You know, set fire to a compound and burn up a bunch of women and children and blame it on, you know, gun nuts.
It's classic.
They do this over and over again.
And if you don't have principles, you will be swept up into these things.
You won't be able to discern what's true from what's just a psyop.
That's why you have to have principles.
Principles have to be universal by definition.
If you don't have universal principles, you don't have principles at all.
And you can't have it both ways saying, oh, on one hand, you know, governments are tyrants and they're overarching and they're taking away our civil liberties.
But then when your guy gets into the White House, you turn around and say, but our tyranny is great.
You know, our tyranny is the kind of tyranny that we need.
We're going to cheer tyranny for our team.
Well, you know why that doesn't work?
Because the precedent set by your authoritarian team is going to be used by the next administration that comes into power, which is likely to be the other team.
And then the other team is going to ratchet that up even more and say, well, hey, you know, Trump set the example of massed government agents in the streets shooting Americans.
So we're just going to do that times 10.
And then you're going to end up with, you know, Democrat-run masked government agents in the streets demanding that you show your papers and running checkpoints.
And if you carry a gun, they're going to say, well, that makes you a terrorist.
And they're going to shoot you in your car.
And at that point, then conservatives would be screaming bloody murder.
Oh, my God, they're not respecting our Second Amendment rights.
Well, you didn't respect the Second Amendment rights of Democrats, did you?
So you've got nothing to complain about.
You never stood for the Second Amendment when it came down to somebody else's Second Amendment rights.
So therefore, you don't even believe in the Second Amendment.
So you've got nothing to complain about.
You know, federal agents are just going to shoot you in your car.
And, hey, you applauded it when they did it to Renee Good.
You applauded it when they shot Alex Predty.
So, hey, don't blame anybody else when they do it to you.
Because you should actually start clapping as they're firing rounds into your face because this is the kind of thing that you endorse.
In other words, don't be surprised when they do it to you.
See, another important part of all this is that conservatives used to claim that they believed in small government.
Do you know any small government conservatives anymore?
No, it's like, oh, we need ICE military soldiers in every city now.
We need a military presence everywhere.
We need a bigger Pentagon budget, $1.5 trillion now.
We need to have more wars.
We need to bomb Iran.
We need to go to war with Russia and China and Venezuela and maybe invade Greenland on top of that.
You know, whatever happened to the principle of small government?
Well, that's vanished from the short memories of conservatives, by and large.
They've just said, well, we don't need small government now.
Our team is in charge.
So let's make the government bigger and more powerful because our team, our tribe, is running things now.
See, that's the thinking, and that's very, very dangerous because that ultimately leads to the other team taking over one day, and then that entire apparatus is used against you.
Just like right now, conservatives are cheering on Trump using the Palantir surveillance database to surveil all Americans.
Why?
Because we need to track illegals, you see.
So we're going to use everything.
We're going to use snooping on people's email and on their cell phone calls and texts and satellite images and monitoring vehicle locations.
We're going to break into all their email, all their private chats, and we're going to say, well, it's necessary because we have to track the illegals.
But it's not really limited to that, is it?
Even if all the illegals are gone, do you think government's going to say our job is done here?
We're going to stop surveilling the American people?
Of course not.
They've built the surveillance apparatus.
You think they're not going to use it?
Do you really think that they're going to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on a system to spy on you and surveill you and track everything about you and build profiles of you?
Do you think after spending all that money and time to build that system that they won't use it?
If you believe that, you're irrational.
I mean, delusional, actually.
But a lot of conservatives believe that, and they are delusional.
And they don't have any principles.
They used to be opposed to surveillance.
Don't tread on me.
They used to be opposed to government agents in the streets shooting people.
Now they support it.
See?
Now, the most important final thought in all of this is one of the reasons it's important that we have principles is because we want to live in a world where other people share similar principles.
In other words, the reason why it's important that we as individuals don't run around just opening fire on people everywhere is because we also don't want other people doing that to us.
Does that make sense?
The reason we don't run red lights at high speed with our cars is because we also don't want other people running red lights with their cars.
Imagine a world where everybody just ran the red lights.
What would traffic be like?
A mess.
Well, imagine a world where nobody has any principles.
What would that world look like?
Looks kind of like Minneapolis right now, doesn't it?
Nobody's operating with any principles.
So it's not just that we ourselves are trying to achieve some kind of higher moral standard, although that's important.
But it's also because we want to live in a world where there's some fundamental standards that are shared by others.
Because the way we act toward the world is also, to a great extent, reflected back to us by others.
And we don't want to live in a world filled with murderers and rapists and violent people.
And so it's important that we don't act in those ways either, ourselves.
If we act with fundamental recognition of other people's human rights, then we respect them.
We don't harm them.
We don't try to enslave them, for example.
We don't do crazy things to hurt other people because we recognize that there are fundamental principles of humanity at work here.
When those principles are abandoned, then it allows people to do all kinds of crazy things that harm other people, such as Committing acts of violence against them or kidnapping them, or trafficking them, or stealing from them or trying to enslave them or whatever the case may be, and We don't support any of those things.
So my message to Conservatives and Christians especially is, if you can't function with principles, then stop talking.
If, If you are a influencer or a podcaster or you're on social media, if you can't operate with fundamental principles, then you've really got nothing to add to the conversation of modern human civilization.
Because if all you're doing is regurgitating some talking points, we have AI bots that can do that.
We don't need you.
AI bots can churn that stuff out all day.
What AI bots don't have is humanity, fundamental human principles.
And so wherever you are listening to this, if you're tuning in to other influencers or other podcasters, ask yourself, do they have some fundamental system of principles?
Do they have a moral code?
Do they believe in anything?
Or are they just sort of floating with the wind of whatever's popular right now is what they're into?
Yeah, I would say turn off those voices if they don't have a moral code.
And I've been very upfront with you about some of the core beliefs that I have, and they've been the same year after year after year, and they will always be the same.
I will always value human life.
I will always see all human beings as equally sharing God's creation.
I'm not saying they all have equal outcomes, but I mean, every human being is the same in the eyes of God.
They're all children of God.
And I also have principles of, you know, protecting animals against suffering and abuse and protecting nature and telling the truth and things like that.
I've shared those with you.
And there are many other people out there who actually do have principles, but they're rare.
They're rare.
You'll notice it as you start to pay attention.
And unfortunately, we live in a time when, for example, ICE is spending now $8 million to pay influencers to push pro-ICE propaganda on social media.
Did you know that?
It's kind of like during COVID when the CDC had a billion-dollar budget to push pro-vaccine propaganda.
And they did.
And they paid screenwriters on TV shows and they paid stand-up comics.
And, you know, they had pro-vaccine messages inserted into everything.
Movies and websites and articles and everything you can think of.
They just bought it.
It was payola.
Well, that's happening now with ICE.
So ICE is spending millions of dollars.
And if you listen to influencers, it's pretty easy to tell who's taking that money because they're twisting things.
They don't have principles.
They've been getting a paycheck.
And they never disclose that, by the way.
It's always a secret, you know.
They don't tell you they're taking money from ICE or taking money from DHS or taking money from the CDC or whatever.
They don't tell you that.
So they're deceivers.
You know, of course, I'm not for sale.
No one's even tried to offer me money to change my view on what I'm reporting because they know it would be pointless.
Anybody who's listened to me knows that my values, my principles are not for sale.
That would be the craziest bargain, the craziest cosmic bargain to sell your soul in exchange for fiat currency that's about to collapse anyway.
What would be the point?
That would be the dumbest thing ever.
So, no, I'm not for sale.
You may or may not agree with my conclusions, but you always know where I stand.
You always know that I'm coming at these issues from the exact same principles every time.
Values Not For Sale00:07:15
In fact, You can easily predict what I'm going to say about everything if you simply know my principles.
It's not difficult.
And you'll never hear me suddenly change.
Suddenly, like, oh, you know, on one day, I'm like, oh, we need small government.
And the next day, no, we need a giant surveillance state.
Yeah, that's never going to happen.
Because even if I were offered money to do that, or even if I were threatened, let's say somebody came at me from the government and threatened, like, we're going to kill you if you keep talking.
Even if I had to go off air, I would never lie.
I would never have another show and be pro-government.
I would just shut it down if I had to.
I would just say nothing rather than violate my beliefs.
So you can count on me adhering to my moral code, my value system, which is a pro-human system.
It's a pro-Christ system of beliefs, which again, a shocking number of so-called Christian pastors in America do not hold.
I believe in small government.
I believe in personal liberty.
I believe in the Second Amendment.
I believe in the First Amendment, etc., the Bill of Rights, the Founding Fathers, and their vision for America.
I believe in these things, and it's not just talk.
It's a fundamental pillar of who I am and how I operate.
It's not for sale.
It doesn't change with the weather.
And it doesn't change with whatever political party is in power.
And yeah, that makes me an outcast of society.
But it's a society of mentally ill, low IQ, you know, zero principled people that I've got nothing in common with them anyway.
So there's no drawback to not being part of that system.
I would much rather be loyal to God and God's teachings and God's principles.
And that's what I stick with, okay?
That's what I stick with day in and day out.
It's very simple.
It's not a complicated recipe.
You know, the golden rule, right?
Do unto others.
It's just, it's not complicated.
You want to live in a world of peace and reasonable people, then be a peaceful, reasonable person yourself.
You can go full Gandhi on this.
And I suggest that you do.
You know, you want to live in a world where there aren't radical terrorists from some other religion that are trying to bomb your cafe all day.
Well, stop supporting the bombing of their schools.
You know?
I mean, it's not that complicated.
If you don't want violence to come to you, don't advocate violence against others.
Don't advocate genocide.
Don't advocate war crimes.
Don't advocate bombings.
Don't advocate police gunning down people in the streets.
You know, this matters.
Because it's not just what's happening in this lifetime that matters.
See, I also believe that God's watching.
The cosmos has knowledge of what you're doing.
It's permanently embedded in the fabric of the cosmos, which I also happen to believe is a giant simulation created by our creator, which also is, that's essentially the story of the Bible and especially the book of Revelation, but I'm not going to go into all those details.
But the idea of transcending this place and going to heaven is the idea of exiting the current simulation and then being judged by the creator of how well you did in the simulation.
Okay, so Christians believe that.
Buddhists believe a variation of that.
They believe in reincarnation, like you get multiple lives in the simulation, and then eventually you graduate from it.
Every religion believes this, or nearly every religion has some variation of this.
But your actions in this simulation matter beyond this world.
That's why I urge you to think about the importance of operating with values and principles.
Even if it's unpopular, it's way more important than fitting in or getting a sponsor for your podcast or this or that or having the right number of views or having the right audience.
If you're afraid, oh, if I say this thing that's true, I'm going to lose audience.
Well, so be it.
If you're down to just one listener and it's God, it still counts.
That's the most important listener.
You can just talk to God.
And that could be your whole podcast.
And it matters more than any influencer that's out there with billions of views who's just lying all the time.
That doesn't count for anything.
You see what I mean?
So it comes down to a value system, understanding what's actually important, what actually has value.
And truth has value.
Principles have value.
Morals have value.
And fiat currency has no value, especially after this simulation.
You think God takes cash?
No.
You think the dollar works in heaven?
Uh-uh.
Nope.
It won't even work on earth in a few more years.
It's going to be worthless.
So those are my words of advice.
Take it or leave it, but I hope this has given you something to think about.
And understand that when you are a good person and a principled person, you will not be liked by most of society because that's not what society wants.
They want obedient people who can be easily manipulated into doing evil things, like supporting genocide or supporting shootings or whatever.
That's literally what most of society wants.
So actually being rejected by these institutions of society is, that's a positive check mark on the resume of your soul.
To say, yep, I was rejected by the Satanists.
I was rejected by the violent coercion pushers.
I was rejected by the authoritarians.
I was rejected by the genocidal lunatics.
I was rejected by the liars, the deceivers, the child traffickers, the mutilators.
I was rejected by them all.
And God will say, well, that's great.
You get an A. You win.
You pass.
You just beat the simulation because you rejected all the evil all around you.
Instead of trying to be popular, you tried to be righteous.
That's what matters more than anything else.
So thank you for listening.
