It's Death Cult season, folks. Owning a 16yo girl in order to ensure ecological collapse? That's a Death Cult. Celebrating a baby born on 9/11 at 9:11 and weighing 9lbs 11oz.? Better believe that's a Death Cult. Support the show at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult Music: Torche - Reverse Inverted
The liberals are destroying California, and conservative humor gone awry... Conservative humor gone awry is going to fascistphonia today, so stay tuned.
We're going to take a few pictures of the desert and how their policies are actually messing it up.
It's not beautiful when you go across that border.
Stay tuned, guys.
We'll show you exactly what it looks like when people go to school in the desert.
Oh, they're in Boston.
Stay tuned.
I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
And we are Minion Death Cult.
The world is not ending.
Anyone who says otherwise is a demonic witch that must be defeated.
We're documenting it.
I was like, where are you gonna go with it today?
So, what's up everybody?
Thanks for your patience.
We know this episode is coming out late, and I appreciate no one yelling at us on Twitter or Facebook yet that I've seen, so thank you for that.
We had a minor scheduling conflict.
I thought we were recording at 4 on Sunday, Tony thought we were recording at 1 on Sunday.
We both had prior engagements.
I had to see Torch that night, and Tony had to see some, I don't know, some no-name band that evening.
I had to support DIY Punk Spaces, so thank you very much.
Yeah, I think you saw our friend Thomas' band, which, yeah, who cares about that?
No name drop, no shout-out for them.
Oh, actually they didn't- they didn't play.
He just organized it.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, man.
What the fuck, dude?
So you're just- he organized it, but he needed you to do the work.
Yeah, I kind of was expecting him to play, but the band Machine Kit played and they were pretty tight and then Memory Leak was really great.
They were really cool.
They're from Tijuana and they came up and played and they ruled.
There was this other band, well one man band called Painting Flowers that was super tight.
Synth loop pedals type thing going on and it fucking ruled.
But yeah, it was fun.
It was super fun.
The other bands, I'm not shouting out because one of them was a white dreadlock, so I won't shout them out.
Yeah, they probably get enough attention as it is.
Did you have to bounce any Proud Boys?
No, I didn't even let him in.
So I didn't, you know, I didn't have to ask him to leave because I wouldn't let him in.
I was like, oh, sorry, this is not the kind of punk you're looking for.
That is Next Door.
You saw their Fred Perry and you were like, no Proud Boys allowed.
And then they said, no, it's okay.
I just really like Morrissey.
And so then you punched them even harder.
Yeah, exactly.
And then I continued to, uh, you know, eat my halal food.
Yeah, so and also shout out to the patrons who sent us very supporting messages on Patreon because of my work schedule last week that prevented us from doing a bonus episode.
We do have a bonus episode coming down the pipeline, an extra one, but I in particular appreciate all the nice messages we got on Patreon and just the general support there.
We love you guys.
So today we have back-to-back death cult stories.
We have two extremely death cult things to talk about today.
The first one is Greta Thunberg.
Want to do a deep dive on this lady and just the insanity that she brings out in the right wing.
Just the utter like I don't know, hatred, vitriol, misogyny, obviously, ableism, just everything.
All in service of continuing to destroy the planet.
Yeah, genuine cruelty for, like, just to continue to roll coal.
Yeah.
So, this one's going to be kind of a mishmash.
We're mostly going to be talking about her recent expedition on that sustainable yacht, which is a very funny phrase.
Yeah, absolutely.
As like a demonstration, Greta sailed a yacht that is supposedly totally self-sufficient.
It's run by like water turbines and solar power and that sort of thing in order to get to the U.S.
to give a speech, a talk about climate action.
And I don't know, just the first thing, the first post I want to talk about is from an account called Free the Market?
On Facebook?
Which, uh, yeah, probably not too into the idea of global action to combat climate change.
I just, like, what kind of mindset are you in where you think the market needs to be freed?
Like, what do you think, what market are you part of that I need to be part of?
Well, they're just, I mean, you know, we are, on this show, we are anti-capitalists.
I think that's no surprise.
And Free the Market, anti-crony capitalism.
They realize that all the ills of capitalism, the exploitation, the hoarding of resources is all just because of cronyism.
It's all just because they're friends.
These corporations are just friends with politicians, and that's why they're able to use their billions of dollars to benefit themselves.
If they didn't, like, I don't know, go to the same school as a senator or as a secretary of energy, then they would have no influence on government.
They would have no influence on the economy.
They're not even mad about the nepotism, they're just mad about the fact they have friends.
No, yeah, that's it.
I mean, we just— They're just mad about the barbecues?
And yeah, I think we should isolate these people, too.
I think we should isolate them from society, maybe a little more extremely than Free the Market is suggesting.
Yeah.
Okay, so Free the Market posts this article about Greta Thunberg.
Why Greta Thunberg refuses to fly to the U.S.
and how she's getting there instead.
Free the Market captions this post with, Which, just a frightening statement.
Just like, we are going to kill this planet.
We were never going to listen to you.
Your efforts are entirely useless.
Humanity was doomed from the start.
Congratulations, you got wrecked.
Well it's sad because I mean from like the Nihilist point of view they're right but they mean it for the opposite reason that like I mean it.
I mean that yeah it was a useless charade in the sense that people like you guys still exist and you guys are going to make it that way but they're like yeah we do exist and we're going to make sure it happens that way.
Yeah, I think the most charitable reading of this apocalyptic caption, uh, your efforts are entirely useless, bettering the world is a fruitful endeavor, um, the most charitable reading of this is like, oh, the world isn't gonna end.
And that's why your efforts are useless, because climate change isn't real or something, which still just is like, oh, you're gonna be so fucking owned when the world doesn't end?
Yeah.
You're gonna be so fucking, like, embarrassed when this planet is still habitable in a hundred years?
Which, yeah, I imagine Greta, you know, on her deathbed just regretting all her efforts to move away from fossil fuels because, uh, the Earth is still sustainable.
I mean, think of all those hours she could have had, like, you know, driving a Suburban with TVs in the back.
That would have been way cooler than, you know, crossing the ocean.
Yeah, it's the journey, not the destination, and the journey should always include, like, a straight-to-DVD copy of Under the Sea, voiced by Rob Schneider.
Do people still have, like, headset TVs?
Um, I don't know.
I mean, I'm a people and I don't, so I'm saying no.
I'm saying no, those don't exist anymore.
Well, I think that since Pimp My Ride was, like, done, they kind of stopped.
Well, they're all in the trunk now.
Maybe Pimp My Ride was so successful we don't see them anymore because they're all, like, submerged into the body of the car and you have to hit a special switch to see the TV screen.
Yeah, the OG Flex.
The TV's now on the engine.
Didn't you say there was some P.T.
Cruiser that had a TV on an engine in Redlands?
Well, it not only has a TV on an engine, but it has this amazing mural.
This actually might be a topic for them, because the mural was the Arctic, with penguins and polar bears in a snowscape.
So I wonder how they feel about global warming.
Yeah, that's a complicated issue.
I mean, it's a PT Cruiser, so not a very sustainable technology considering how quickly those broke down and how many of them are just rotting in junkyards across the country.
Yeah, yeah.
Maintaining your PT Cruiser is an act of climate protest.
Still rolling.
Joe Booth says about Greta Thunberg and her yacht trip, Joe Booth, would be ironic if her ship hit an iceberg.
Goddammit Joe.
Wishing the Titanic upon her.
Yeah, I think what's more ironic is referencing the Titanic, like a ship that was popularly referred to as unsinkable.
That everybody had these grand delusions that, oh yeah, it's unsinkable.
And then they piloted it directly into a fucking disaster.
Reminds me a little bit of maybe our stewardship of this ecosystem.
Exactly.
Like, calling the planet unkillable while driving it right off a cliff.
Hey, Joe, you know that the Titanic wasn't real.
It's just a metaphor for the Earth, right?
Yeah.
But I like this.
Would be ironic if her ship hit an iceberg.
Like, what if a windmill chopped her head off, dude?
Wouldn't that be fucking funny?
What if a tree fell on her?
Yeah.
Wouldn't it be ironic if I shot her with my gun?
Yeah, it would be super ironic.
I mean, there's no emissions with that, you know?
It's just a little bit of smoke with those.
Yeah, talk about internal combustion.
Also, dude, where do you think Icebergs are?
How do you think she's getting here?
Where do you think she's coming from?
I guess it would be ironic.
There's this iceberg in the middle of, like, you know, the Atlantic.
Yeah.
Well, she's coming from up north, so she's like a snow person, I guess.
Oh.
Yeah.
So this next post is not, like, very funny, but I think it kind of raises a couple good points.
This dude, Ralph Wissing, Ralph Pissing posted in one of my Facebook groups, largest group ever, we need one, what is this, 10 million members to make America great again.
And I think there's like a couple thousand in there.
Ralph Pissing posts, This underscores the fact that being climate friendly is much easier for the wealthy, who can continue to live as they do now and pay other people to help the planet.
For the rest of us, we have to uproot our lifestyles to comply with climate policies.
Um, I think this raises a couple good points, uh, number one being, like, the idea of, what is it, what are they called, climate offsets, which is something I learned from King of the Hill.
Like, I learned that that exists from the episode of King of the Hill, I think it's called, uh, Earth, Earthy Girls Are Easy.
Where Hank is like trying to organize a, I don't know, environmental concert for Strickland Propane to like raise money for environmentalism and Hank's kind of like an old-school conservative where he thinks, you know, saving the planet is like a, I don't know, practical thing to do.
And it just ends up being this huge grift where nobody stops polluting, everybody's just buying carbon offsets, you know, supposedly to go to green causes, to counteract, you know, like you said, rolling coal or whatever, but it's just nothing all the way down because Dale Gribble's not even planting the trees that he's supposed to plant, you know?
And the second thing here is that it's much easier for the wealthy who could continue to live as they do now and pay other people.
For the rest of us, we have to uproot our lifestyles to comply with climate policies.
I think this is like a good point.
This is a good point that this sort of liberal project to try and, I don't know, regulate consumer products You know, as our number one effort to stop climate change, things like banning straws or banning plastic bags, I think that's probably good, but not a means to an end.
You know, telling people to, like, Better separate their recycling or whatever is fine, but not sustainable.
Pun not intended.
It's not going to save the planet.
There needs to be some fundamental restructuring of our energy grid, of our entire energy economy to make this thing work, to actually save the fucking Earth.
Because some people will just never recycle.
Some people will just never change their behaviors or their lifestyles unless we build an infrastructure that makes it impossible to do otherwise.
Yeah, like you said, it's the whole thing.
It feels pretty futile, right?
I mean, I hate to be that guy, I hate to be that vegan, but one of the things that people can do is watch what we consume when we eat.
I'm not going to tell people to go vegan, that's never worked ever.
People are now eating For as many people that are getting the Beyond Burger from Carl's Jr., there's three more people who are going there and buying extra burgers just to spite it.
Yeah so yeah and you know you've seen the meme about how like 99 corporations are responsible for you know yeah 75 percent of the pollution on this planet like this is this is never gonna work people like you said people will um have a knee-jerk reaction to the idea that You know, not using plastic straws will save the environment.
A, because they intuitively know that it won't.
Yeah.
And B, because they're like, well, fuck you.
You're still flying on your private jet.
Well, fuck you.
You're still like driving to D.C.
twice a week.
Yeah, exactly.
You don't have to change your lifestyle.
And even if you did, you could afford to do it.
You know, I can't afford to buy an electric car.
You know the real reason why people like stop pushing, like, wanted to ban straws is like, oh we can now cut the cost of straws.
We now don't have to buy as many straws to stock.
And paper straws are cheaper now.
They don't care about this.
They're not actually trying to make an impact with these things.
They're just trying to save face and save some money.
Anyone who thinks that Kentucky Fried Chicken cares about chickens, so they're doing a veggie chicken, they're just trying to make a buck.
They're just reacting to existing consumer demand.
They're not changing anything.
Do you remember, I mean, can you think of, I have this idea in the back of my head that straws are gay.
Oh yeah, totally, yeah.
I remember them being called sissy sippers.
Just in general?
Straws in general?
Just the idea of a straw?
Yeah, a straw is gay because it's like cylindrical like a penis and you put your mouth on it.
Yeah, and it's not even, like, a big penis, which would be masculine.
It's a little... And you, like, suck it to get liquid into your mouth.
Yeah.
Like, I just want to have the soda.
I don't want to, like, have carbonated cum.
I mean, we know libs are fine with soft homophobia.
I don't know why they just didn't lean into the straws are gay campaign.
That probably would have been much more effective.
And that was another thing that was really funny too, is like we said, people responding to it.
Because I remember that being a thing, you know.
I didn't use straws for like a long time just because I don't like the way it felt.
I don't know, it was weird.
I like sipping for some reason.
Maybe you questioned too many things?
Well, it just wasn't good enough for me, you know.
If I could get like a girthy straw, then I probably would have gone for it.
Um, and so I thought for sure this would take off, you know?
Um, but then, yeah, the opposite happened where men were like, give me my straws back!
And it was the same guys that were like, I don't know man, my boy was using a straw the other day and has been listening to like, you know, pop music, so... Like they've reverted just to spite people, it's really interesting to watch.
Well, and they're calling those, like, Starbucks makes a lid now for their cold drinks that has, like, an opening on it, and they're calling that, like, a sippy cup on the right wing.
You know, even though all other coffee cups also have the same top, the same lid, but because this is, like, a cold one, oh, you must be a little gay baby.
Yeah, I love this whole thing, it's like, you must be... You're like soft if you have to drink your iced coffee that way, like... I drink my Frappuccinos with a straw like a man.
Yeah, you can make anything gay.
If you just get liberals to say something is good, then that's gay now.
And the opposite of it is manly and good.
Fishmonger says... I can't remember what comment section this was in.
It might have been in the RT comment section or the Daily Wire comment section.
I think it was the Daily Wire comment section.
Fishmonger says, I'm 100% for preserving the planet and protecting the environment.
Okay, good, cool.
Good job, thank you.
Yet every time I see Greta Thunberg, I feel like she's judging me and like I've done some abominable thing.
Guilty without being guilty, sort of like being Catholic.
Well, I just want to say this is a fundamental misunderstanding of Catholicism because, uh, in that religion, you are guilty.
True.
And like, are you saying that she looks like Jesus?
I just think that this is a good way to show you care about the environment.
You know, hey, I'm 100% for preserving the planet, but then also allow yourself room to like, irrationally hate a child.
It's funny because I see a lot of people talk about, you know, um, I feel like she's judging me, you know, the way she's looking at me, stuff like that.
But the thing is, she just has a very earnest look.
And like that freaks people out.
Like she's just very earnest and like sincere.
Yeah.
I mean, I think she looks tight.
I think she looks cool.
Uh, I think you, uh, should be scared because Greta, Greta Thunberg, Chairman Thunberg is absolutely judging you.
Uh, and she will not show mercy.
Yeah.
Your, your name is fishmonger and maybe it's because you're overfishing and that's also bad for the environment.
Yeah, that's possibly it.
It's funny because this is the right-wing equivalent of that Democratic strategist who just couldn't put her finger on why she hated Bernie Sanders so much.
Just did, yeah.
Why he made her sick to her stomach.
Listen, it's not that I hate poor people or criminal justice reform or anything like that.
It's just something about him.
I just don't like him.
Therefore, I'm not going to vote for any of his policies that I totally agree with.
Yeah, it's just something about his look.
And it's like, oh man, you're being, you're, you just don't want to say you're weird.
Anti-Semitic observation or something.
I don't know.
It's weird and lame and a cop-out of sense, but not even that good.
It's not even as good as the cop-out.
Well, maybe she's not being anti-semitic, she's actually being, like, racist against white people.
Like, she's one of those people who thinks Bernie is just an old white man, uh, and therefore, uh, it's fine to be racist against him.
I mean, that is the one thing that sucks about him.
Yeah, that is the one thing that sucks about him, is that, I mean, that is one of the things that sucks about him, is that he's an old white man.
Well, I mean, the idea of whiteness is debatable there, you know, because the same people who hate black people and queer people don't care for his kind either.
True.
Very true.
But like, now picture this, though.
Freaky Friday, except, except Bernie Sanders and Kamala Harris.
Oh, I like this.
Yeah.
Yeah, I like this.
This could be really good.
If it wasn't for her terrible ideals and history and background, aesthetically, she's a terrific candidate.
Yeah, she's got those moves.
She's got incredible charisma.
Yeah, I just think it's funny.
Like, nobody believes that you're 100% for preserving the planet and protecting the environment when you have this just knee-jerk, irrational response to a child who is advocating for supposedly the same things you are.
Nobody's buying this.
It's also weird, too, because I remember, like, in the 90s, stuff like this was kind of cool.
I remember reading about this, stuff like this, in Uh, Boys Life, which was the publication put out by the Boy Scouts of America.
I feel like every year they had something about some, some young man who, uh, you know, did a transatlantic, transatlantic trip on a boat that was solar powered and how it was good for the environment.
It was cool and it was like, um, you know, people, like, liked it.
They, like, uplifted it.
But now, in this world we live in, it's like, no, this is bad and she's a woman and, like, she's a witch.
Yeah, I mean, Paul Joseph Watson did that, just an obnoxious video.
I'm sure all of his videos are obnoxious.
I just haven't watched many of them.
This is the first one that I've watched in, I don't know, months, years.
He did a video on Greta and about how it's absurd or it's offensive or it's ridiculous that she was on the cover of Men's Life or Men's Health or whatever that magazine was.
He was like, God, no wonder guys think environmentalism is gay.
She's a girl.
She's a girl on the cover of a men's magazine.
I don't want to see that.
I want to see a frickin' car on the cover of that magazine.
Yeah, totally.
Like, guy stuff, you know?
And like, not one of those electric cars either.
It's just funny that you're like saying, no wonder men think environmentalism is gay because I'm calling it gay.
Yeah.
Like it's this, it's this very weird, like, do you not want, like, how do you want them to frame environmentalism so that you don't think it's gay?
Like have a, have a attractive guy doing it?
I don't understand.
I don't understand.
At which point, it was the cover of all of them.
It was GQ.
It was the cover of GQ.
Okay.
Which, I mean, is one of the better ones, you know?
And it's like, I don't know.
Fuck outta here.
Yeah, that video is extremely cringe.
It's bad editing.
It's bad jokes all the way through.
Eulara says, I don't know how we can watch this exploitation of a child with a cold heart.
Her parents should be charged with neglect.
It doesn't matter the sex or the activism.
She is an underaged and cannot make the decisions on her own right.
Poor girl, heartless parents and family, unaccountable and irresponsible Swedish child protection authority.
I would never allow my daughter to be used in such a cruel way.
What do they think neglect is?
I would never let my child pursue their dream and do this amazing thing that's going to be covered around the world and get all this acclaim and attention for.
This is not neglect.
What the fuck are you talking about?
Yeah, this isn't many AOC's parents writing scripts for an 8-year-old girl to make fun of children in concentration camps.
This is a 16-year-old genuine activist who, from what I've read, forced her parents into veganism.
Like, I don't think her parents are the ones calling the shots when you can just be owned into giving up meat.
Man, I want to know that script.
Like, how did she do that?
That's... She made her mom... Like, her mom was a world-famous opera singer who would tour the globe.
And she made her mom give up that career, essentially, to stop flying around.
Whoa.
Because it was bad for the environment.
What a... She comes from a really, like, wealthy background.
So, don't feel too bad.
How charismatic... But how charismatic do you have to be?
Like, that's... You have to be pretty... Because, I mean... Shit.
I've been trying to get my mom to like, stop doing things forever, and she keeps on doing it, you know?
I'm like, mom, just, just, you don't have to give money to the Wounded Warriors Project.
Like, you just don't.
You know?
I should just tell her it's bad for the environment, too.
Yeah.
It's bad for the home environment, for sure.
Um, so, buried in the middle of this comment is a very interesting idea, where it says, it does- her parents should be charged with neglect.
It doesn't matter the sex or the activism.
She is underaged and cannot make the decisions on her own right.
So, a quick reading, like, might lead you to believe that this person is referring to gender as sex.
Like, it doesn't matter that she's a girl, we just hate her because she's a child.
That's not what this person means.
This person means, if they're not allowed to have sex, then they're not allowed to tell me how to live my life.
I think you're absolutely right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I know that this is the case because I saw another comment that was like...
Uh, well, according to the UN, she's not of a legal age to have sex, therefore I don't have to listen to her.
Wow.
And it was this really weird comment of like, well, if I'm not allowed to fuck you, then I'm not going to save the environment, okay?
That's wild.
That's the deal we made.
That's the deal we made with the UN.
It's clearly not about gender because like the only way that, uh, you know, a female presenting person can be of value is if they can have sex with you.
Like, what the fuck?
It's also just this, like, weird... spite?
Leveled against, uh, underage girls?
You know?
Like... Ew.
Yep.
Totally what it is.
First you tell me I can't have sex with you.
Now you tell me we need to, uh, strictly regulate or, I don't know, eviscerate carbon pollution.
What's next?
Yeah, what's next?
I'm gonna have to learn how to cook?
Just like getting out all your pent-up sexual frustrations on the environment.
Just like drilling for fracking because you can't fuck a 15-year-old.
I might not be able to do that, but I can like fuck Mother Nature, like quite literally.
Yeah.
Oh, you know, how old is the earth?
Is that old enough for you?
Yeah.
Rafael Semez says, How much emissions would have been involved if this hideous little witch had just flown over on her broom?
The problem, I guess, is that as an admitted member of Antifa, Thunberg would not have had room on the broom for her mask and weapons.
Ugh, fuck off Rafi, like... Also, what kind of witch would have to, like, pack their... Hasn't anyone seen, like, a witch's bag?
You can put anything you want in a bag, like... Yeah, it's like a Mary Poppins bag, dude.
Yeah, you could totally fit all the masking weapons in there.
You don't have to worry about that.
Yeah.
Ugh.
So stupid.
I think it's so... It's so... It's very stupid.
It's stupid for, like, three different reasons, at least.
Yeah, you need like a whole cargo area of an SUV for your mask and collapsible baton.
Yeah.
Also, where are you going to put your milkshake?
There's no cup holders on that broom.
I feel like if you're flying on a broom, you probably need to wear a mask like for, you know, protection from the air and the elements.
This is just, like, such a bad joke.
It's reaching so fucking hard.
Like, uh, she's a witch, uh, and how is she gonna carry, um, her killdozer on the broom with her?
I also like that people still think that witch is an insult.
Yeah, it's been taken back.
Yeah, yeah.
Hey, go to Tumblr sometime, guys.
Yeah, what's wrong with you?
Like, oh, so you're saying that, you know, she has, like, mystical powers and, like, you know, can't be killed with traditional, you know, in traditional ways.
She can also, like, use magic and conjure the dead and stuff?
Like, that all sounds sick.
Greta Thunberg has made me fall in love with her via a love potion, and that's why I must kill her.
It's the only way to break the spell.
Also, if she was a witch, couldn't she just, like, I don't know, magically save the earth with magic powers?
Yeah, that's more of this individualistic thinking that we don't like on this show, Tony.
Yeah, just like, oh, she's a little witch, but her witch's hat is actually a dunce cap, and actually that dunce cap doubles as a KKK hood, because Antifa are the real racists.
Yes.
Owned.
Hit send.
Because we all know the original, the original, uh, KKKs were Antifas.
Yeah.
Well, it's all the same, you know.
Yeah.
Uh, Orange Submarine says, she is an elite sheep programmed to run an agenda.
I think she is a whole lot more than Asperger.
Uh, cause she does have Aspergers.
People with this genetic disposition due to GMO and toxins in food, air, and water are not social like she is and far more intelligent than she is by her age.
Look, not to get caught up in all the stuff earlier in the comment, but are you somehow saying that this person's stupid?
Because, like, there's- no one can make the argument that she's stupid.
I mean, she's- like, this is- it's- Pretty widely accepted that she's very intelligent.
I mean, come on.
What's wrong?
Fuck off.
Well, no, Tony, she is very stupid.
She's directly contradicting all these memes I saw on Occupy Democrats Logic.
She obviously hasn't done her reading.
She obviously hasn't watched enough PragerU videos.
Go back to school.
Also, what kind of sheep leads this type of movement?
Well, it's an elite sheep.
Oh, true.
It's the best of the best.
Yeah, so I like also that he's saying people with this genetic disposition caused by GMOs and toxins, which are like two different sources of ailments, you know?
And then also, yeah, she's not smart like all those other autists.
So I know she's not autistic.
Jesus.
She isn't enough like Rain Man.
Something's wrong here.
Listen, I know a lot about autism because I watched The Theory of Everything.
And she hasn't... Oh, no.
Sorry.
What's the one?
Not Theory of Everything.
That was the Stephen Hawking one.
What's the Alan Turing one?
Oh, um... She didn't invent computer science, so I know that she's not autistic.
That's a good movie.
It's a good movie, though.
It's probably got a name.
Also, I'm waiting to see the take that's like, I've actually heard that she was never vaccinated, so I think this whole autism thing is a lie.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah, you could say part of the neglect that her parents bestowed on her was never vaccinating her.
Yeah.
Um, and then here's just an article from RT.
Uh, the headline reads, Feels wrong?
Elite's darling Greta Thunberg poses next to German eco-extremist.
And the thumbnail is of her in the middle of this, like, Occupy camp in the middle of a protected forest in Germany, where, you know, drilling companies and mining companies have been trying to gain access to, and there are people in there literally, like, You know, fighting them and terrorizing them, which is pretty cool if you ask me.
And this thumbnail rules because she's like, she's standing at the front of a group of like five people, one of whom is wearing a face mask.
All of them are, well, like, I don't know, a good four, four, six of them are women in the middle of this forest.
And yeah, it's it's pretty cool.
Yeah, and also, like, these people, I mean, uh, with the exception of having a person with, you know, their face covered, you know, look very, like, you know, normal?
Yeah, they're all white, is what you're saying.
Obviously, they don't look like threatening or, like, you know, yeah, they're out there, like, standing ground and being a presence to, like, stop things, but, like, no one's, like, holding a Molotov cocktail or, like, you know, uh, No one looks threatening.
They all seem like they're just there because they care.
And she looks, again, like you said, she looks awesome in this picture.
She looks like a badass.
And it's just like, yeah, that really bothers people.
Um, and I think it's funny that it's like, oh, these elite, the darling of these elites is participating in direct action against the fossil fuels industry?
Boy, I bet they're embarrassed.
And yeah, they probably are, and good.
Yeah.
Like, good.
It's great that she's still doing this more radical shit, or at least giving, um, credence to this more radical shit while still being, like, signal-boosted by, you know, George Soros, literally.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, that absolutely, like, rules, is that, like, she's really doing it.
She's, like, she's not just, like, a, you know, she's not just a face.
She's, like, actually out there making moves at 16 years old.
Like, fuck.
Some comment was like, uh, who is this?
And another person replied, this is George Soros' granddaughter.
I saw that more than once.
And then the person, the original commenter said, oh, thanks.
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
I had no clue.
Like, I, I love that.
Just the blind credulity of anybody in the same Facebook group as you.
It was that easy.
No, this is George Soros' granddaughter.
I fucking knew it.
I fucking knew it.
Never mind that, like, George Soros' granddaughter, if he does have one, is probably like 40 years old at this point.
Some anonymous person that I've never spoken to before in a comment section tells me that this person is related to Obama.
Absolutely. 100%.
Yeah, absolutely.
It's confirmed.
Like I said, because you know Facebook has the filter that you can't put lies on there.
If it's on the internet, it's true.
Well, what happens is you can still put lies on there, but if you put the truth on there, Facebook will debunk it.
Facebook will say that this is fake news and debunk it.
True.
So that's how you know what's true or what's false.
One more thing here.
This is a long comment, but it's just so fucking interesting.
It's from Daily Wire.
HigherStandard13 says, The real problem with the planet is the number of people.
More people alive today than have lived and died in history.
That means more water, etc.
used for food production and other activities.
It is time to stop all credits, etc.
for those having children and actually have child taxes.
Those taxes must cover all costs of the child to include medical, dental, food, education, etc.
so that no other person is taxed to pay for your child.
There needs to be a one-child policy at that tax rate, and additional children are taxed at multiple-fold.
This way, only those really wanting children have them, and we can reduce the impact on others as well as the environment.
So, um, yeah, like, instead of, you know, regulating industry, uh, using what resources we- the vast amount of resources we currently have to shift our energy policies in the right direction, let's just, uh, make people who have children really poor.
Yeah, let's do that.
That makes way more sense, and it'd be way easier to do, and it'll probably be like, you know, uh, people will probably be more accepting of that.
I also like that you're gonna tax people to pay for their own kids?
Like direct- you just have to give the government the money and then the government gives it back to you?
Like I don't- Yeah, I don't get it, yeah.
This is fucking great.
It's so good.
Well, I mean just from the jump of this comment, like they obviously don't have a grip of anything because to say that more people are alive today ...than have lived and died in history, saying that in the existence of mankind... ...more people exist on the planet right now, alive and breathing, than have ever died.
Ever.
Like, that's... I don't know, that might be true.
That feels like something I read on a Snapplecap.
I mean, uh... No, but... But, yeah, sure.
It's like, no way that could be true.
Maybe it is.
You don't know?
Have you counted them all?
No, I mean, we do know, because it's pretty... There's more people on the planet now than ever have been, yes.
But from the beginning of mankind to now?
No, that's not...
No.
Okay, I think the jury's still out.
I think I read that fact on BuzzFeed or something.
Oh, never mind.
Shit.
Okay, fuck.
I'm sorry, I didn't realize it was on BuzzFeed.
My bad.
It's probably 100% scientifically accurate.
There needs to end all aid to those who cannot feed and take care of themselves.
For they continually overpopulate and then have their handout demanding more.
This government handouts stealing from one to give to others is corrupt, immoral, and unethical for they are enslaving one to give to another and making it difficult for most to ever save for retirement.
You are not entitled to anyone's stuff or the right to demand their services for free.
Oh man.
You ever like advocate for the imprisonment of poor people just because you couldn't get laid and have kids?
I mean it makes sense.
This is 100% just some dude who's like living alone and real bitter about it.
My tax dollars are going to let other people have sex.
I don't get to have sex.
So he's saying that You should give all the money that you would normally, like, buy your kids food with, or, you know, house them, or care for them.
Give it all to the government, and then the government gives it back to you.
And if you have another kid, you have to give, like, twice as much as the first kid.
And then if you can't pay it, you go to prison.
At which point, those kids just, like, stop existing, I guess?
And, uh, they're no longer a burden on society?
Well, let me tell you something as somebody whose parents did go to prison.
Um, yeah, that's kind of exactly what happens.
Once your parents are gone, no one else really notices you or, you know, acknowledges your existence.
Okay, well that didn't go the way I thought it was gonna go.
I'll defer to your expertise.
I just think it's funny that if you're arguing about, like, resources being spent on children, you would advocate for taking those kids' parents away.
Yeah, it makes no damn sense.
It makes zero sense.
Um, yeah.
Just a very bitter, nonsensical, but highly entertaining comment from Higher Standard.
Let's move on to our next story of the night.
So, the anniversary of 9-11 is like prime time for the death cult.
It's showtime.
Because all these memorials, all these 9-11 remembrances, They're not really about memorializing the victims, like the actual people who lost lives, you know, died of complications later.
It's certainly not about reflecting on the actions that led up to the attacks.
No way.
Not about that at all.
It is 100% about forcing Everyone's still alive to relive the horror of September 11th.
It's just about like re-traumatizing the public as much as possible in order to like, you know, justify the endless wars and the Islamophobia.
It's just putting the specter of death in front of everyone so we can just continue this zeitgeist of, like, wounded nationalism just as long as we can.
As long as we can.
As long as it'll carry us.
Yeah, it's not about the actual people.
It's about the injuries sustained by Lady Liberty.
No, 100%.
I mean, what are the, like, you posted today, Tony, you posted that, or somebody shared it with us on Twitter, the smoky eyeshadow to commemorate the smoke coming out of the Twin Towers.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
So, so good.
So good.
Uh, yeah, in order to honor 9-11, uh, some woman did a smoky eyeshadow.
Uh, and it's like, yeah, it's just indicative of all these memorials.
Uh, I guess not all of them, but like 99% of any memory or, uh, any honoring of the, the tragedy of 9-11 just involves like a photo of the towers.
Yeah, it's that easy.
It just involves the idea of building... Well, it's not that it's that easy, it's that... It's that base.
This is what we think of when we think of 9-11.
We don't think of, like, the actual lives.
Because it was... There's a lot of people who died, but I didn't know anyone who died.
I think you might have, Tony?
Or no, you knew somebody at the Las Vegas shooting.
Actually both, but yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
Like you said, it's not about that.
I did, but it was my friend's uncle who I've just met a few times.
Like you said, it's not about that.
It's been so disconnected from that.
It is a memorial of the rubble, not the people.
Yeah, it's an idea that this attack made victims of us all.
Yeah.
Like, yeah, sure, 3,000 plus people died, but America is the true victim.
And because America is the victim, we are all victims.
And, like, one of the clearest examples of this just fascination with the spectacle of 9-11, the death, the destruction, was that state senator or congressman who posted those alarms that somebody had set on their iPhone for, like, each of the story beats in the attack.
Which is, like, sadistic.
That's, like, fucking crazy.
Like, you wouldn't do that, for any trauma that happened in your real life, you would never do that.
You know, you wouldn't be like, you know, 901, broken window at house, you know, 930, family massacred.
You wouldn't set alarms for that, that'd be sick.
Yeah, September 8th.
Mom's doctor's visit where they noticed a mass in her lungs.
Yeah.
Like, insane.
Insane, like, sadomasochistic navel gazing.
Just like, I don't know, the second you think you've like processed and digested grief or like a national event like this, here's Wake Up by Arcade Fire to remind you that this is when the second tower fell.
Yeah, totally.
I just listen to Jimmy Rolls Bleed America every day on 9-11 on loop.
Oh boy.
Album came out in 1999 and has not held up.
I mean, musically it's still really good, but just in terms of American nationalism, oh boy.
What a cringe fest, you know?
Yeah, other examples of this are absolute grifters like Graham Allen, the guy who now works for the Blaze, who's graduated from ranting in the front seat of his F-150 to ranting on a floor at the Blaze network.
Goals, man.
to like ranting on a floor at the Blaze network.
- Goals, man, goals.
- Or like Charlie Kirk, you know?
These fucking absolute charlatans post things like, God, wasn't 9-12 just great?
I wish we could all just live constantly in 9-12.
Yeah, that's...
That's what that post was.
When the American public was, yeah, when the American public was, like, quivering putty in the hands of the federal government, you know?
Like, just, do something, please, God, do something, you know?
Let's go, let's go back to that time when, uh, we didn't know what the fuck was going on, a bunch of people had just died, and, uh, Sikhs were getting assaulted in the streets because they looked a little too much like Muslims.
Yeah, the Smoky Eyes post that Hart Hansen aka The Gay Raffi sent to us, that's what the person was saying.
Like, when I do my Smoky Eyes, I not only remember 9-11, but the day after when we were all Americans.
It's like, what the fuck?
Yeah, I can point you at like, I don't know, a dozen different people who can tell you they didn't feel so American on 9-12.
Oh yeah, absolutely.
Any, you know, relatively brown person.
Yeah, so, instead of that particular type of derangement, this, like, fascination and obsession with, like, the spectre of 9-11, and, you know, more insidiously, the way that it's been propagandized to, uh, you know, further our imperial agenda, Further our white supremacy in this country.
We're going to cover a story that, while similar, it's derangement of a different kind.
So this is on Fox News, but it was also everywhere else.
I'm gonna read the headline here.
This is in Fox News' pregnancy vertical, which is cool that they have like a whole section of their website devoted to pregnancy.
Headline, baby born in Tennessee on 9-11, at 9-11, weighs nine pounds, 11 ounces.
It's very rare, but very special.
It's that special number that we all love, 9-11, three times. - Yes.
This baby's got it three times.
It's like three times as good as any other baby born on 9-11.
I wonder how bummed people were when they clicked on the baby and realized the baby was black.
Somebody in the comment section was like, oh, for a second I thought this was a white baby.
Yeah, yeah.
And then somebody replied, I agree, it's hard to tell now with all this race mixing.
Yep, yep.
How do I know whether or not to care about this spectacular baby born three times 9-11?
I like, I get it.
I kind of get this whole thing because like, I mean, I think we've talked about it before, but I'm really proud of the fact that my baby was born at 4 20 PM.
Yeah, see that's insane, but it's like a harmless level of insanity.
Yeah, yeah.
That's, you know, that's like just, that's just like a little bit cute.
I don't think there were any news articles about your daughter being born at 420, although there should have been.
Much better than a 9-11 baby.
I think your baby is better than this baby.
Arguably.
Yeah, like I get like looking up at the clock and oh, it's 311.
That's kind of funny.
You know, but this is like insane.
This is like insane parental numerology.
Do all parents do this shit?
Like, oh, my baby weighs 6.9 ounces.
Nice.
Nice, yeah.
And they probably fudged the numbers a little bit.
I'm sure they did.
There's no way.
Like, there's no way they nailed it this way.
They had to fudge it just a little bit, you know?
So you're saying they tweaked it so they would get another 9-11?
Absolutely.
Absolutely they did.
They orchestrated the third 9-11.
Yeah, this baby actually weighed like 9 pounds 8 ounces and was born at 9-09.
at 9:09.
The sub headline to this article reads, "Parents celebrate newborn delivered with some special attachments to September 11th." And the baby is like in the ICU.
Yeah.
With like attachments on it, which is, you know, not a joke that I would ever make.
Please don't laugh at that.
But I mean, the baby seems like generally healthy.
It just seems to be like some monitoring going on, nothing too wild.
Yeah, that's a big baby though, right?
Oh yeah, because my first thought was like, I don't know what that weight is, you know?
But yeah, it's a good pound.
Pound heavier than the average baby born.
Is it a monster baby?
Will this gigantic baby devour us all?
It's a mega baby, for sure.
Okay.
Definitely a mega baby and might possibly go on to rule the masses.
We'll see.
Is this a Moab?
Is this a mother of all babies?
Quite possibly, I think so.
I think that this could be the Moab of babies.
I'm trying to remember if there's anything worth reading in this article.
Cool.
A couple who welcomed their daughter on the 18th anniversary of the September 11th terror attacks was shocked when the baby arrived at 9/11 and weighed nine pounds, 11 ounces.
It is very rare, but very special.
It just makes her an even more special little girl than she already is.
Rachel Loughlin, a patient coordinator at Methodist Germantown Hospital, told the news station.
God, isn't it so special she was born with a number similar to this national tragedy?
What they don't realize, all this really means is that when this baby grows up, they're going to be a dispatcher.
That's really all it is.
A couple people said that.
She needs to become a cop so her other number can be 911.
Hey!
People suck.
Yeah, people are bad, dude.
There was something else I was going to say.
Though the couple recognized 9-11 as a time of remembrance and sorrow for the country, they noted their daughter represents joy on such a day.
She comes in on 9-11, there was so much devastation, but she's bringing all this joy and life into the world because everybody's been waiting on her.
So like, that's fine.
I mean, it's fine to be like...
Hey, a good thing happened on 9-11, and before, a bad thing happened on 9-11, and we're going to choose to, like, recognize the good thing.
I mean, that's fine, but the fact that this, like, inspired the imaginations of so many people as to, like, oh, it means something, or oh my god, this is monumental, just, like, shows how obsessed we fucking are with tragedy and death in this country.
Yeah.
I mean, I always celebrate the good things that happen on 9-11.
Like, that's why I always go visit the Trump Tower.
Because that was the best thing that happened that day when it became the tallest structure in New York.
Yeah, that was a pretty cool thing that happened.
Yeah, it was pretty sick.
Yeah, let's get into comments here.
Crystal Eve Grub says, My grandpa birthday was on 9-11 way before this happened.
My grandpa was born way before this little fuckin' baby.
It's like, are you under the impression that nobody had a birthday on 9-11 before this?
Yeah.
Grandpa did it.
That's not what happened.
People just stopped having babies before.
And also, your grandpa was born before the actual 9-11.
Yeah, unfortunately there was no reason to celebrate your grandpa's birth because 9-11 hadn't happened yet.
Dumbass.
Your grandpa should be so lucky.
Uh, Tracy Crooks says birth certificate?
I'll wait.
Oh, so they did know the baby was black.
People are unironically saying that this baby was an inside job.
Kind of like you did at the top of this segment.
People are like, I don't believe this for a second.
Like, yeah, sure, it would be amazing if numbers associated with this baby were 9-11, but I don't fucking believe it.
I don't buy that.
Bullshit.
Just like his fucking clout-chasing ass baby?
Like, just... Imagine the mindset where you're in, where it's like, yes, being born on 9-11, at 9-11, 9 pounds 11 ounces, would be fucking... would be amazing.
would be extremely meaningful uh but i'm suspicious i'm suspicious that they rigged this shit to make it to to like yeah like chase the clout to they to be like they wanted to make this great thing happen and so they lied about it
But I mean yeah they might because I mean you you you can it's just a piece of paper you fill out it's not like it's not like alarms go off when all these things happen it's not like when the baby's born is an official like thing you know thing you can't like modify because You know, going back to my kid, because that's all I really care about, her mom really didn't want to put 420 on the certificate.
And I was like, no, we're not missing this opportunity.
Like, sorry.
She will grow up one day, and whether she smokes weed or not, she will think this is funny.
So, like, we're not going to put 419 on the certificate just to, like, not make it weird for you.
I don't want to, like, contradict you or anything, but your daughter's not going to think that's funny.
She's not going to, like, even remember that she was, you know, she's not gonna know that she was born on 420 aside from the fact that her dad keeps reminding her.
Yeah, that's gonna be awesome!
It's like when my mom calls me every morning on my birthday with the time I was born, which sucks because I was born at like 5.05 in the morning.
And she calls me every morning on my birthday to remind me that.
So every morning on her birthday, I'm just gonna, you know, pass the dutchie on exactly that time.
Yeah, but at 4 p.m., 4.20 p.m., because that's stoners wake up time.
I'm gonna be like, look, instead of using candles, I put little joints in your...
Your cake.
Heather Buckman says, amazing.
God had plans for her before she was born.
Heart.
It's so hard not to be like an atheist shithead on this segment.
Yeah, yeah.
Don't you believe that God had plans for like all the babies before they were born?
Like, I just imagine God being, like, talking to, I don't know, this stork angel, or whatever angel is up there, and he's like, okay, for this one, she's gonna be born at 9-11.
The stork angel's like, okay, cool, dude.
All right, I got you.
Yeah, I'll do that Like God's just God's just like really stoned and he's like wouldn't it be fucking crazy if she was born at 9-11 The stork's like yeah, I don't see how that like furthers peace and love in this earth, but yeah, I guess that would be kind of cool but then like the weight was like the stork just overachieving just like Cool, we're gonna also do the time and the and the weight the same thing too.
So Well, he's, he, you know, he's a good employee.
He knows how his boss thinks.
God's like, dude, I didn't even fucking think of that, man.
Good job.
So fucking...
God had plans for this one.
She just didn't fucking wait.
She just has, she just has wait.
This poor kid is just gonna disappoint everybody.
Like, there's nothing this kid could do that's gonna be, like, great, you know?
The only way this, like, kid could do this is if, like, you know, uh, becomes a cop that somehow kills, like, the Osama Bin Laden zombie.
Somebody was saying, um, wow, born on 9-11, at 9-11, nine pounds, eleven ounces, and she's black?
Nine pounds, 11 ounces.
And she's black.
Take that, Trump.
In your face.
That's great.
I just imagine, like, White House interns talking in hushed tones about the 9-11 baby and then, like, swearing an oath that they can never tell Trump about this.
We have to keep this information from him.
Because he would publicly ask for the birth certificate.
Like, that would have to happen.
Um, dude, I'm gonna skip that next one.
It's so stupid.
Somebody, somebody, I'll say it, somebody discovered that her first name has nine letters and her last name has 11.
Wow, something special about this beautiful baby girl.
Yeah.
Which I didn't count them because I extremely don't care.
I don't care with prejudice, but yeah, it's probably true and it means exactly nothing.
Lisa Roberts says, when my grandson was born, 9-11-2007, my son said, mom, but it's 9-11.
I told him, son, it's life, not death.
It's a good thing, beautiful miracle.
Congratulations for your 9-11, 9-11, 9-11.
Congratulations for your 9-11!
Congratulations on all those 9-11s.
That's like as good as the screenshot you took of our conversation.
Oh yeah, I tricked Tony into planning 9-11.
It's pretty cool.
Even though we had the conversation when I read it, I was like, wait, did I agree to a 9-11?
Yeah.
I forwarded that screenshot to Robert Mueller.
FBI should be knocking on your door as soon as we finish this episode.
Yeah.
I got a weird voicemail talking about like, I hope you're not expecting 50 virgins.
You got just like a shipment of guns and like plastic explosives to your front door.
Care of not the FBI.
Yeah.
All with my name engraved in all of them for some reason.
Yeah, the text message said, hey, want to just do 9-11?
And Tony said, sure.
Like a fucking idiot.
Walked right into that one.
No, I'm so glad.
I didn't know if you were playing along, if you knew what I was doing, but text message, it was a good one.
Well, what was weird is when I got on the plane and you were nowhere to be found.
Yeah, I was hanging out with Mark Wahlberg.
I was supposed to be on that plane.
Willie Estella Mays Taylor says, something tragic happened on that day, but remember when created the earth, he that would happen on that day back then.
He knew that 9-11, so I think there's God in this comment.
We haven't seen the word yet, but I think that's what's going on.
He knew that 9-11 this year, something wonderful would happen.
Everything God did or does is good.
Beautiful baby, precious in God's sight.
This is just like the environmental offsets we were talking about.
No, listen.
I know that we're going to have this crazy tragedy, but there's also going to be a baby born one day.
Yeah, of course I'm still going to do the tragedy because it's fun.
It's part of my lifestyle.
It's part of my identity is just wiping out huge swaths of people, but I'm going to make up for it by letting a baby be born on a certain date.
But God, that's just a baby.
No, guys, guys.
The baby's not only going to be born at 9-11, it's going to be born at 9-11, 9-11 pounds, and it's going to be named with 9-11 letters.
It's going to be perfect.
It's going to totally make a big difference.
Watch, Facebook's going to go crazy.
This is totally like, yeah, it's like God is like, yeah, sure, I killed a bunch of people, but I'm just gonna do something really stupid with like a baby's birth weight and time and the Rubes will eat it up.
They won't know the fucking difference.
Like, it's like, you know, Walmart having a fucking sweepstakes for one of their underpaid employees to win half a car or something.
Yeah.
You know it's it's like no it's it's you know there's just a little bad and there's a little good and it all evens out in the end and what the fuck difference does it make to these morons?
Easy.
Easy peasy.
Gary Piont last comment says, too bad it wasn't twins then you would have gotten a smiley face or some tears.
It's so good!
Too bad it wasn't twins, like one for each tower, you know?
If God was really trying to make up for 9-11, he would have given us 9-11 twins.
And it's funny because like, if it would have been twins, I think people would have freaked out even more.
Like, people would have been like running up and down the street screaming.
100%.
With joy, yeah.
Um, I, yeah, instead of twins, I think it should be triplets, where, like, the third one was actually devoured by the other two in the womb, and that would have represented, uh, building seven.
Yeah, yeah.
That would be the most accurate way to do a 9-11 baby.
That would have been perfect, yeah, yeah.
Um, yeah, too bad it wasn't twins, then you would have gotten a smiley face or some tears.
Well, I mean, a top fan like Gary Piont needs to be critic.
You know, they can't just be giving stuff away.
Yeah.
Gary Piont is a top fan.
I think this is like the CNN comment section.
Gary Piont, just like a regulator in the comment section at CNN.
And yeah, he gave the post a thumbs up, but it could have gotten so much more if they would have just tried a little more, you know?
Yeah.
You would have gotten a smiley face or some tears.
Uh, we need that laugh cry react now.
You can do both.
We also could have played that sweet Budweiser moment from the commercial.
Um, there's so many good ones.
Twins!
Oh, that one, yeah.
Could have done that one.
Could have done the twins react.
Which is just, yeah, a guy with, like, slobber coming out of his mouth.
That's the react for that one.
Yeah.
I think that's it for the episode.
Thanks so much for listening.
Thank you for your continued support on the Patreon.
If you want to help us pay some bills, patreon.com slash MinionDeathCult, P-A-T-R-E-O-N dot com slash MinionDeathCult for three bucks a month.
You get a bonus episode every week and it's all great content.
They're full-length episodes just like this one.
And for $5 a month, a little extra support gets you those bonus episodes and a pack of stickers.
So thanks to everybody at that level.
Really appreciate it.
Still have a few shirts available at MinionDeathCult.com.
