Today Miles Klee of Rolling Stone joins us to talk Sound of Freedom, the child-trafficking action(?) movie dominating theaters and leaving its fans to say “if you didn’t like it, you’re a pedophile.” We cover the morose film and the gruesome promotional push behind it, including twitter copypasta and weepy tik toks, learn about the film’s real-life vigilante, and read from deranged responses to Miles Klee and his Rolling Stone article critical of the film.

Quick note up top, our guest's audio does get glitchy occasionally.
We didn't know how to fix the problem, but it's fine.
It's all audible and it only happens a couple times.
Enjoy.
The liberals are destroying California and conservative humor gone ray.
Conservative humor gone awry is going to fascist phonia 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.
I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
And we are Minion Death Cult.
The world is ending.
Child sex trafficking, loving movie critics are responsible and we're documenting it.
What's up, everybody?
We got a banger of an episode today.
Today we are talking about the sound of freedom.
And here with us is Rolling Stone reporter Miles Klee.
How are you doing, Miles?
Thanks for joining us.
I am doing great.
How are you, boys?
Very good.
You recently wrote a piece on this child trafficking movie, Sound of Freedom, a fairly critical piece, I might add.
Since you didn't care for the movie, Miles, I have to ask, why do you support child trafficking?
Well, I mean, it gets down to one simple issue, which is the free market has spoken.
I was amazed at the part of this movie where he's talking to a reformed cartel member or something who's now anti-child trafficking because the sex slave he had sent to his room turned out to be 14, which is the legal age of consent in Colombia, Cartagena, where he's at.
So thoroughly, thoroughly confused, because like, hey, I mean, if I don't know, like, what's what the hell?
The slave I had brought to me was a couple of years younger than I thought she was.
This isn't this is an outrage.
But then it's also just like legal in your country.
Even, even worse.
He, that girl was not sent to his room.
He saw her, he saw her on the street and he thought to himself, she's got to be 25.
He said that.
He goes, he goes, I thought, I knew she was 25 and turns out she wasn't even 25.
She wasn't even 20.
She was 14.
I'm like, dog, that's, that's on you, bro.
That is completely on you.
You can't tell between a 14 year old and a 25 year old.
The fuck?
That is on you, my guy.
And the movie allows you to sympathize with that guy because, A, he's on the right side now, but the children being trafficked are like seven.
Yeah.
So you're like, oh, well, he's not as bad as some of these other freaks.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The extremes of the like the age casting in it where they're just like, you've got like a six or seven year old.
You're like, OK, we are really far from the reality of this stuff.
Oh, it's brutal.
It's, it's, I mean, it's an extreme in every minute.
Like they, they want you to suffer when you watch this movie.
Um, but listener, I want, I want the listener to know I am looking closely at miles video feed for any signs of drooling or slobbering, uh, as, as we begin to discuss this child sex trafficking material, because, um, I have been warned by the, real life pedo hunter that this movie is based on Tim Ballard.
I have been warned that pedophiles are salivating at media outlets ripping on Sound of Freedom.
This film, this is a real headline in Fox News.
Amazing.
Amazing.
I mean, like, yeah, if you made a movie and only pedos hate it, you're doing a great job.
And also at the inverse is true.
If you if you hate it, then therefore you are also.
So just be careful out there.
Yeah, and the people who make this movie, or more accurately, the people who support this movie, they think about 9 out of 10 people are pedophiles.
So it makes complete sense to them that the majority of people would just be like, this movie is garbage.
And then they're like, oh, you've outed yourself, essentially, as a child abuser.
Good job.
And it's just a confirmation of what they believe, which is that Literally almost every adult walking around on the face of the earth wants to have sex with children and is involved in trafficking.
Yeah, everyone except, like, the insular communities, which tend to be religious, who explicitly, like, raise young girls to become property of the male members of those religious... It's everyone but youth pastors.
Yeah, at the age of 14.
Or it's everybody except, I don't know, the military, you know, where they just found that 14-year-old special needs girl fucking smuggled into that army base, like...
I had people who were hating on me, kept sending me that story to say, like, child trafficking is real.
Look, look, look.
I'm like, all right, let's send Tim Ballard to go liberate kids at Camp Pendleton.
Go have him invade a U.S.
Marine base.
I would love to see that.
Yeah.
Camp Pendleton, the same camp that the pervert Marines at the beach were from.
Yeah.
Oh, San Diego.
That's San Diego.
Oh, sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not chill, guys.
Trafficking a 14-year-old, one of the least chill things you can do.
They do not represent Southern California.
I just think, like, when is, like, Operation Underground Railroad going to infiltrate the U.S.
Army, which, as we've seen from these stories, is, you know, they're going after underage kids all the time.
Yeah, they're full of them.
You know, I do got to say, you know, in defense of the Catholic Church, those kids were already at the congregation.
They weren't trafficked there.
Those kids were already there.
Yeah, there's no abduction.
They're just working on the altar.
Yeah.
So we brought Miles onto this episode to talk about this movie, but also to talk about the waves of unhinged lunatics who have been swarming him online since his review, which we've already kind of referenced.
One of my favorites is that girl who was calling you the F slur and was like using hashtag F slur and people who like called her out on it.
She was like, I'm underage.
That was that was that's like some of the best posting I've ever seen.
She was getting really mad that people like, you know, got those tweets flagged.
And it's and it's like you just can't you like even on Elon Musk's Twitter, if you put hashtag the F slur.
Hashtag is amazing.
I know.
I you know what?
I really should have clicked the hashtag when I had the chance to see who else was using it.
But probably some good stuff on there to be fair.
Yeah, I do like that logic, though, because that's logic of so many.
It's like, no, when I was using homophobic slurs, I was underage.
Right.
So I'm looking at.
The link Rolling Stone posted on Twitter of your article, which is Sound of Freedom is a superhero movie for dads with brain worms.
This has 4,000 likes, almost 5,000 likes, 26,000 comments.
4,000 likes, almost 5,000 likes, 26,000 comments.
One of the biggest ratios I've ever seen on Twitter.
I'm pretty sure like Rolling Stone has to hand over its Twitter account to I meme, therefore I am 1776.
Or the right to bear memes or one of these accounts.
Yeah, some of my favorite content.
And what an astounding like I mean the response the response to this is kind of indicative of this.
It's it's like an astoundingly bold film campaign.
Anybody who doesn't see or like this movie is a pedophile.
Uh, and that's not an exaggeration.
That is, that is literally what they're running with, like here on, uh, great awakening dot win.
This was, I found this from a link in your article, miles, uh, rice.
K a says, these are the people who like to touch little kids.
So just anybody who doesn't like the movie or is confused, uh, by the, the fervor surrounding this movie.
These are the people who like to touch little kids.
Go ahead.
On the flip side, anyone who watches this movie is doing activism and saving children.
Yeah.
I mean, it's great.
I don't know if I've like what's what's the like?
We always I don't know.
We I'm including you in that, Miles.
But like people tend to recognize that liberals think, you know, going to see the good movie is politics or, you know, going to to the to the rally is politics or whatever.
I don't know if I've ever seen anything to this degree on the liberal side.
Like maybe Black Panther.
Like maybe there were performative white people who were like, I won't go to Black Panther because that's not my lane.
Or white people who were like, I went to Black Panther and I sat down and shut up.
And it's like, good, that's what you're supposed to do during a movie, actually.
But nothing like this.
I don't think I've ever seen anything like this in the sort of like media consumption is politics.
If these people had gone to Black Panther, they would have said it was unfair to the British Museum or something.
Yeah, yeah.
Wow, hey.
Yeah, sure, he might be a CIA agent, but that's no reason to call him a honky, alright?
He's a human being.
What was the closest thing we ever had?
Would it have been like Fahrenheit 9-11?
Uh, inconvenient truth.
Inconvenient truth might have been it.
Yeah, that would probably be the closest thing, but even that didn't have the more, didn't have this.
The more normie one would have been like, uh, would have been like boomers who saw Green Book and thought they were woke.
Yeah.
But you still didn't see like this accusatory, like anybody who didn't like Green Book is a racist.
Yeah.
I wish we had.
That would be a lot more fun.
Amber Wynn says, at this point I have to agree.
Change of tactic now for me.
Amber Wynn, who has this looks like a fucking lolly profile pic, by the way.
You guys can't see it, but it's a little anime head, a little girl anime head.
Amber Wynn says at this point, I have to agree.
Change of tactic now for me.
When people have snide things to say about this film, I'll just ask them, quote, why are you protecting pedophilia and sex trafficking?
That's good.
That definitely makes you seem like normal in the conversation.
It definitely like cuts right to the chase.
It lets people know where you stand.
I love it.
These people, when they default to their kind of reason, like facts and logic voice, are especially funny because you're still just smearing people as pedophiles.
But they try to do it as like, well, logically, you have had sex with children.
Yeah.
Well, I'm simply, like, unemotionally and sort of factually calling you a child fucker.
And we will have more reactions to Miles Klee and his article in the second half of this episode.
Yeah, no, I couldn't get to theaters to see this, so I did watch it legally so as not to be accused of pedophilia.
Thank you, Jacob, for that.
Well, I'm sorry to say you both missed out on seeing this with an audience because once in a lifetime experience.
No, no.
I don't think I don't think I could have watched this with an audience because I was laughing throughout like half of it.
Just how fucking morose this movie is.
We'll get into the plot in just a second.
We're not going to go through like scene by scene on this plot, but there are some things worth talking about in here.
Um, but, uh, because of the marketing, so before this movie was actually released, like several months ago, I was seeing marketing about this movie on Twitter, and, uh, it was mostly in the form of this copy pasta that's, uh, Quote, God's children is not for sale.
Hollywood actor Jim Caviezel is about to blow the lid on the CIA's involvement in the $34 billion child sex trafficking industry.
Hashtag sound of freedom.
And this was accompanied with a photo of Jim Caviezel, Mel Gibson and some other guy.
I don't know.
And I saw this like in three different places and I was like, wait.
Jim Caviezel's releasing a documentary about the CIA sex, like trafficking children.
That's fucking incredible.
Like, there's no way this is real.
But then I kept seeing like this, this sort of, uh, dialogue about, about how he's going to blow the lid open on this shit.
And I was like, damn.
And then when it finally turned out, it was just like an action movie, like a fictional action movie.
I was like, what?
What the fuck?
Did you see any of this sort of grassroots or like astroturfed promotion of the movie in relation to the CIA and sex trafficking?
I didn't catch that.
I know that Jim was promoting it, you know, a long time ago as, you know, it was getting attention as early as 2021 because they finished the movie in 2018.
But he had been going to these extreme right wing conferences and, you know, QAnon affiliated cons and talking about adrenochrome farming and stuff like that while he was there ostensibly to, like, promote this film that still needed to get a distributor, blah, blah, blah.
No, the idea that like the CIA was in on it is referenced nowhere in the film.
Nope.
There's none of that.
He works for the Department of Homeland Security.
Right.
Yeah.
And he doesn't quit.
And to be clear, he in the film, he's not quitting DHS because they're in on it.
They're just like holding him back from being Batman of like capturing pedos.
So he's tired of the red tape, and it's the CIA complicity is a really funny angle, because if he had attempted, if anyone had attempted to make that movie like they would have been killed and we never would have heard of such a film.
Sure.
Yeah, it would have been it would have been accurate and interesting.
I will say like like slight spoilers, but I was I was happy to see that there was no mention of a Junichrome, because I think that means we might get a sequel.
You gotta leave somewhere to go.
Yeah, it'll be.
It'll be like determined.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 Secret of the Seas.
We need the deep underground military bases.
We need Adrenochrome.
We need organ harvesting and we need specifically like Hillary Clinton in there.
You know, just like some of the big names like let's let's bring down.
I was really amused at some of the like really hardcore right?
Not liking the movie because they think it didn't go far enough.
Yeah, I like that.
That's my favorite people.
Those are the most twisted.
And they're like, oh, they make it seem like it's all happening in Columbia.
But, you know, they wanted to see some they wanted to see some high profile rich Americans indicted as like part of the elite cabal.
And they didn't get to see that.
And I'm glad they're frustrated, honestly.
For a sequel, I just want to see them recreate Frazzledrip, the film of Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedin cutting off the face of a young girl and putting it over their face and dancing around.
That would be a good sequel to this, I think.
Yeah, I think if they're brave, they will do like a one-for-one recreation of that.
In conjunction with the release of this movie, you have, like, the official Facebook account for the Sound of Freedom sharing TikToks of dudes crying, like, straight into their phone camera talking about how awful the movie was and how it also makes them want to have a kid.
What?
Like, I saw this video.
Let me play the audio.
What you're about to watch is my honest review after the movie Sound of Freedom.
The theme of that movie was God's children are not for sale.
Here you go.
So he's cut from that video to a video inside of his car at night after seeing the movie wearing a US Army hoodie.
Did he just give us a trigger warning?
Mm-hmm.
Wow.
Just got out of Sound of Freedom.
Crying.
And, um...
All I could think about that whole time was how much I want to be a father.
I think he watched the movie wrong, dude.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, Tim Ballard has like nine children and you sort of see them in the film.
Yeah.
One of them looks just like Gary Busey.
He's probably a nephew.
You see him abandon his nine children to go hunt pedophiles in the jungle.
Like, on his own.
His nine children who, like, no longer have healthcare because he quit his job.
Yeah.
And I'm sure those conversations went just as smooth as they did on the TV, when he's like, babe, I gotta quit.
I gotta quit and I gotta go do this.
And she's like, yeah, you do.
Go for it.
Run it.
Yep.
Absolutely.
We're great.
45 seconds of screen time in the film.
And it's just for being the best wife and just saying, we got this, babe.
You go catch those pedophiles.
We got to we got to catch that that girl.
I feel like it's my girl now.
You've been looking for so long.
We'll just live off Lunchables.
We'll be fine.
Yeah.
When when he's texting or when he's like in the jungle trying to find the girl in like the third act of the movie.
Yeah.
The wife texts him.
I feel like she's my daughter now, too.
So I don't.
Well, I guess, yeah, your husband's spending more time with her than any of you.
So, yeah.
He's also more committed to finding that one girl than any.
He doesn't give a shit about the other kids.
Like he at one point rescues 55 kids, but she's not one of them.
And he's like, well, fuck them.
Yeah.
He's like walking through the village of like slaves.
It's like slaves processing coca plants.
And he's like, hmm, she's not here, not here, not here.
And he's just like casually walking through.
And then he sees like the back of a little girl and she turns around in slow motion.
And it's that beautiful little Honduran girl you've been looking for.
Yeah, but I think this video of this guy, I think he's talking about, like, he wants a kid so he could, like, justifiably torture and kill a pedophile who, you know, did stuff to her.
Yeah, they all want to do prisoners in real life.
You ever seen that movie?
Yep.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
That's totally weird, because I mean, as someone who does have a kid, when I watch stuff like this, I'm like, oh man, I can't believe I brought a person into this world.
I can't believe, oh my god, I did that.
That sucks.
They're just taking kids off the streets on little motorbikes.
She knows that if she sees a motorized scooter, to run the other way.
Because of the montage of motorized scooters picking up kids in the movie.
Insane, man.
We'll get to it in just one second.
But like, yeah, all I thought after watching this movie was how I want to be a dad so that I can statistically be the likeliest person to traffic my child.
Yep.
Yep.
I want to be a dad so I can get into a custody battle and then get totally pilled against divorce court.
Yeah, and like, swipe my child out of a stroller on closed circuit TV that's, yeah, used in a montage at the beginning of this movie.
That's the one time you feel like you can justifiably kidnap a kid is if it's yours.
It's not kidnapping.
It's not kidnapping.
It's returning property.
It's just that her bitch mom won't let me see her anymore.
So I gotta take her.
Okay last last thing that I wanted to get into before we get into the plot is um the waves of conspiracy theories just about the movie's premiere uh and like for example libs of tiktok uh shared this video From, yeah, TikTok says, movie theater empty and it said sold out online and at front desk.
Hashtag the sound of freedom.
Multiple reports of weird things happening in theaters while trying to see the sound of freedom movie.
So if you're not familiar, maybe Miles, you can, you know, you're the reporter here.
Maybe you can fill people in as to why, why the hell would a movie theater say sold out, but be completely empty inside?
Explain that one, genius.
All right.
All right.
First of all, let's just say, for one thing, you could just lie about that.
Who says it was sold out?
We have no proof of that.
So let's let AMC off the hook there, first of all.
But then, if you start thinking about the possibilities here, The most likely thing is that because Angel Studios, which distributed the film, has a pay-it-forward scheme where you can claim a free ticket because people are trying to, you know, promote this message movie.
People who have more money are trying to buy tickets for other people to see it to get them to cry about an imagined version of trafficking.
Somebody could, you know, theoretically go and claim all the tickets that have been bought for like a quote-unquote sold-out show and not go because they're just fucking around.
It's very possible to Just essentially reserve an entire theater for yourself from tickets that are already bought by just going to the movie studio and claiming all those tickets.
And then when an aggrieved right winger shows up because they're like, I wanted to see this movie and it was sold out, they're confronted with an empty theater because no one fucking showed up.
Um, pretty amazing.
Compared to when, uh, basically when conservative think tanks or whatever other dark money just buys like thousands of copies of like Donald Trump Jr.' 's shitty book to make it a bestseller.
It's not a bestseller.
There's just thousands of those books in somebody's fucking warehouse and then they get given out in, uh, you know, other kind of like Gift bags at some stupid conference, right?
It's all, it's fake engagement.
And yeah, like, I would say it's selling the movie short to be like, it's not a hit.
I think a lot of people have seen it.
And even the president of AMC said a million people have seen it at their theaters.
And that was a few days ago, but... That guy's going to ticket sales too, right?
Yeah, the movie is making a ton of money because a lot of tickets are being bought that are not necessarily being used.
Yeah, it's astounding.
To have this conspiracy theory is so fascinating to me because it's like...
You have all the cards like all the odds are slated towards you.
You're blowing your own narrative for this for this movie.
Well, you get to be the victim and the victor at this at the same time, you know, because you're like railing valiantly against the dark forces who want to prevent people from seeing this movie by buying millions of tickets for free and offering them for free.
And yeah, what is clearly a very like juicy pump and dump scheme on this movie, like you said, that just Every, like, presidential candidate who releases a book has some fucking pack by, you know, 10,000 copies of it so it can wind up on the New York Times bestseller list.
Very similar.
Yeah, they do this so that they can make a meme about how Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, liberals champion movie, the movie that liberals thought would finally get Biden respected.
Yeah.
And it's wow.
Yeah.
Even beat even beat that.
So just what just wonderful insight into the way these people think I wanted to pull up one Piece from your article miles Okay Therefore, to its boosters, the movie checks many satisfying boxes at once.
Caviezel, a devout Catholic, allegedly blacklisted by the entertainment industry, back for a mythology-burnishing biopic of Ballard, who is the main character.
A call to action in an imagined global war against sexual predators, a blow struck at the heart of, quote, woke Hollywood, the den of iniquity that snubbed it, and, lest we forget, is thought to produce the wealthy deviants who serve as villains in this story.
So, a couple questions about this.
Yeah, part of the conspiracy theory is that Disney didn't want to release this.
Disney was sitting on the distribution rights to this movie and refused to release it because people would connect the jungle militants with Disney CEOs as pedophiles and it was too close to home or something.
Can you explain that a little bit?
Yeah, I mean, Disney took over 20th Century Fox, which originally had agreed to distribute this movie.
And OK, this is pretty simply explained that, yeah, Disney shelved, Disney shelved it with probably a lot of other properties to too many to name, I'm sure.
Everything else aside, I don't think Disney has really long been in the business of releasing movies that depict child abuse.
It's not their land.
Yeah, it's not a good look.
Even if it's, let's say, theoretically anti-child abuse.
Still not.
I think they'll go as far as, like, Cinderella has, like, a mean stepmom.
Like, that's kind of their limit for that sort of thing.
So Disney just didn't want to release it, and why would they?
It's Jim Caviezel literally watching child porn, like, ten minutes into the movie.
That's not a Disney movie.
It begins with a montage of kids getting snatched.
It looks like actual footage of kids getting kidnapped.
Again, probably half of this is being done by an estranged father or uncle or some shit.
Really begs the question.
I'm probably using that phrase wrong.
Why would anyone watch this movie?
Like, no wonder fucking Disney didn't want to release it.
It's an awful film to watch.
Huge bummer.
When he's writing notes on the video, it's because it shows that he's writing notes.
And the first note that he writes is he adjusts camera.
And then walks away.
I'm like, you're getting that in detail of this video description.
Like you're in for a long night, bro.
You're in for a real long night.
And you can see that he's the only one who works at DHS.
He's like the one employee there.
So of course, he's, you know, he's got to do it all.
He's going to stay there all night, not see his nine kids.
It's sad.
Yeah, the like the FBI and I didn't know DHS was this this involved in, you know, the materials related to child trafficking.
But yeah, they have like a very select special group of people whose job it is, very unfortunately, to comb through this material and censor the children's faces out of it and then try to get like identifying Uh, you know, clues from from the rest of the video and those people aren't also like given a gun and told to go out into the field because it's it's not good for your for your mental health.
But yeah, that's that's apparently like what his job is.
And yeah, back to like, why would anybody watch this on?
He had the I think pretty astute observation that said like this is the male version of the true crime phenomenon.
This is like true crime for men where you're not imagining yourself being the victim the way like many true crime stories focus on women being the victims, but you have to like be punished or, uh, you know, harmed in some way.
And that is by, yeah, having your child trafficked or just children in general, like that's your sort of, uh, victimization in this.
Um, and then, yeah, when they're talking, he's talking to his partner after they make a successful bust on a, on a pedophile connect.
Um, his partner is like breaking down in the car and it's just like, I can't like deal Like this stuff is so awful.
Um, you know, like, I don't know if I can do it.
And it's like, yeah, this stuff is awful.
Why is it entertainment?
Why am I watching it for entertainment purposes?
You have a guy in your movie whose job it is to actually confront this stuff and Try to help and, you know, theoretically in his own mind, I'm sure he's trying to help and trying to solve these problems.
And even he is like suffering because of it.
You you're just here for entertainment.
You just have a fucking box of popcorn in your lap.
Like, what's your excuse for this?
Well, it's slightly beyond entertainment, just like the true crime things, where it's actually like a duty to consume these things, because you're not just watching it.
You're like taking notes so that you can you can hopefully like when people listen to the true crime things, they think that they can prevent a true crime from happening again.
You know, just like people watching this are like, OK, I got it.
I got to take notes now and I got to know that, you know, if if I see this, this and this, then I can probably, you know, free a child.
Yeah, somebody tries to be bound.
If somebody tries to approach me with a vaccine, they're actually trying to set me up for for child trafficking.
They're actually trying to frame me.
If a Colombian beauty queen asks to just have total supervision of my children for an entire day.
Yeah, yeah, that's a red flag.
I really, I really.
Yeah, it's just LARPing all the way down too, I have to say, because not only does Tim Ballard and his operation misrepresent the work they do and pretend that they're more like a special ops thing than they really are.
People watch the movie and feel sympathetically connected to that idea.
They feel like they're doing something.
And then to connect it to the people who got mad at me, a lot of them ironically sound like Liam Neeson in Taken.
They act like they're going to do something to me because I'm one of the bad guys.
They're going to come find me.
They have a special set of skills and they're going to enjoy their conversation with me really soon.
Having the thought about torturing and killing Miles Clee is like the most self-gratifying thing I've ever done.
It's so rewarding.
Yeah, and in another part, like back to this point, Jim Caviezel, whose performance in this isn't bad, like he's not, he's frankly like not asked to do much except be on the verge of tears or on the verge of like screaming or lashing out.
His bloodshot eyes 100% of the time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And, and the film itself is kind of shot like a, like a moody art film to some degree.
Like it's, it's not an incompetent, it's not an incompetently made movie.
It's just incredibly boring when it's not incredibly depressing.
Very slow.
Very, very, like very, very slow.
Um, so there's a conversation that he has where he's talking to, I think, his, uh, either his partner or his boss, who, like, he wants to go farther.
Jim Caviezel's character, Ballard, wants to go farther than just catching the pedophile.
Like he wants to fix the problem.
He wants to help children.
So he says something like, you know, nobody wants to talk about this.
Ordinary people don't want to talk about it.
It's not nice for quote polite conversation.
And it's like, why would you be having this conversation What am I supposed to do?
You come up to me and tell me that there's children being sex trafficked.
I'd be like, fuck, that sucks.
Do you still want to talk about it some more?
Tim is really fun at the backyard barbecue when you're just shooting the shit.
But these people do like talking about it.
The viewers for this movie, that is a part of polite conversation.
It's like hyperfixating on this imagined... I think the movie is semi-pornographic in that regard.
I think they're actually enjoying how disgusting it is.
They act like, you know, it's the rest of us who are, I don't know, But it's like, no, you actually, you actually shot way more scenes of, like, the lead up to, like, a child being sexually abused than you actually had.
If you want to do this movie, I don't know, responsibly, which is not even, not even possible.
You could do maybe, like, one foreboding scene.
But no, it's like over and over.
We are seeing, like, pedophiles, like, about to abuse a child.
Because they like it.
They're fucking turned on by it.
It is so gross.
Yeah, it's thrilling to them.
Even just sitting in this audience, when you could hear the sounds these fucking boomers were making during the movie, like as a kid was about to get raped, it was sexual for them.
I'm not exaggerating.
They were like moaning.
They were like oohing.
Insane.
Really gross.
I did have a there were like in the beginning and well for half the movie there were lots of those shots and they were like you know to make it show like oh look they are like sexing up these kids but those they did those shots like in the shots when they were like doing the modeling and stuff like that it did they did they did like way too much of it.
Okay, so this this was my read on this is like the scene where that Colombian beauty queen who is What do you like the talent?
She's like the talent finder.
She goes and swipes these kids from you know poor communities She's setting up photo shoots.
And yeah, you're it's like showing a kid wearing lipstick but then like You know putting putting her hand on her cheek or the guy or like this and I'm like that's not even like sexual like it feels weird that this is supposed to be sexual when it's just like a kid taking photos like like you already have to be in the mindset of child sex abuse to be what which you are because you're watching this movie but that's like the prerequisite towards reading something nasty into it but uh
That feels like that might be a lifelong thing for, you know, avid viewers of this movie is, yeah, that's how they look at like like a photo of a kid smiling at the camera is a huge red flag for these.
Yeah, exactly.
How many how many of these viewers have been to like a child beauty pageant also where they're doing all that shit?
Or even like told their daughter, hey, oh, it would be so cute if you put, you know, if you posed like this or like you looked up at daddy, like you loved him or, you know, whatever.
Not that that's the equivalent, but, you know, it is like it is coaching and grooming in a certain sense.
You mentioned porn, Miles, that this is porn.
That was like my takeaway from that.
This is like it's like misery porn.
You know, it's because not only are you are you watching these really, you know, awful scenes of like an adult, like trying to coach a child to doing gnarly stuff or just, you know, grabbing a kid and throwing him into a trailer or whatever.
You're also getting the hero.
The hero has to go through so much suffering.
And it's it's it's very funny that it's Jim Caviezel who played Christ, you know, his most famous his most famous role was dying on a cross for several hours, which is kind of what he does in this movie, because, yeah, not only is he forced to, like, watch all this stuff, he he he has to play a pedophile at one point in order to gain access to gain the confidence of another pedophile because he's trying to, like, track down the leads.
So he has to, like, embody the spirit of a pedophile who thinks like, what, you know, children are like works of art or whatever he says about it.
Pedophile for 75% of the film.
Right.
So you get him like, like rending his soul in that way.
There's another, there's another point where they're, they're like, they have an elaborate sting operation, uh, where they're getting these, these sex children, child sex traffickers, or like slavers, uh, to bring kids to this one resort on the pretense that it's going to, they're going to buy all the kids and it's going to be like a huge hotel just for this.
Um, But in the middle of this, one of the slavers wants to take a kid and go do stuff, and it's not ready to pull the trigger on the sting yet, so Jim Caviezel's character has to stop it.
But then the guy points a gun to his head, and he has to give the kid back to the child rapist.
Again, it's just the most intentionally pathetic and demeaning things possible in this movie.
But then I saw this comment from Polly M91 who is again like responding to critics of this movie.
Polly says these sound like the type of people who watch porn for the story.
So let me, let me go through this.
This is a little esoteric.
Let me go through this.
He's talking about criticisms of the movie where people are like, uh, it was poorly paced.
There wasn't great action.
You know, no memorable characterization when in reality you should be watching this for the porn.
You should be watching this for the meat of it and not critiquing the storyline and just admitting that this is porn for you.
This is what you should be paying it.
You don't, you don't, Read the articles in the fucking movie bro.
You jerk off to what's on screen It's like, how are you going to complain about, you know, like poor pacing when you got to watch Liberation of a child of multiple children?
OK, so, yeah, I guess I don't know if we need to go beat by beat here.
I mean, I don't want don't necessarily want to, but feel free to add any any scenes you wanted to mention, Tony or Miles.
But Ballard, yeah, he leaves his wife and six children to go petto hunting in the jungle.
His wife is like, OK, cool.
See, she's she's my daughter, too.
And then, yeah, he has to give the boy back to the pedophile lawyer at one point.
So when they finally go into the jungle, which is a total fabrication for this movie, is that correct, Miles?
Yeah, yeah.
All that stuff is even the studio has a kind of like what's true and what's not.
And yeah, he never went deep into rebel territory in Columbia to rescue one girl among apparently like dozens of children that he doesn't give a shit about.
Dozens of children, dozens of adults.
And I mean, that's like, it's just a great microcosm of this entire, like, save the children movement or like focusing on child trafficking at like the total expense of every other kind of trafficking, the most common of which is like trafficking for labor purposes.
You know, trafficking workers across state lines or, you know, smuggling in workers or brides, marriages, child marriages, you know, and all all of this sort of trafficking facilitates like sex abuse.
So it's all it's all intertwined.
But yeah, I mean, our cheap labor like that's just what those people are put on this earth for.
And women, well, once they reach a certain age, you know what they're for.
It's like only the children who get past, like, the right wing's seemingly infinite indifference towards everybody else on this planet.
That is like the whole thing about movies and this whole idea is that, like, it's that American exceptionalism.
It's like, I need to stop children from being trafficked in order to do that.
I need to go to South America where it's like, no, dog, you probably can just go like you.
You could.
There's probably stuff you can clean up on your own country for sure.
But there's like no.
Also, it's only being done.
These crimes are only being done by like dirty poor people.
You know, they're like, Oh, the, the, like the, the guy, the guys who like kidnap these children who are worth, you know, a hundred thousand, thousand dollars each.
They're all like wearing rags and just disgusting and dirty people.
You don't have to do that.
There's like regular, there's like, there's.
One of your I promise you, if you're amongst the police, one of your coworkers is part of this.
Tim Ballard is a Mormon.
The Mormon Church is not a great sexual abuse record.
I don't know.
He could be doing something there, perhaps.
Yeah.
No.
Well, I mean, you saw those like press releases and like photos of the Duggar family.
Well, that was all just, you know, props.
They actually did live in the jungle like this.
They actually did.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All their all their sex crimes.
They're actually communist Central American rebels.
Yeah.
Probably one of the most astounding parts of this movie, like plot wise, is When, when Jim Caviezel's character and his cartel buddy, who is now like, yeah, a good, good cartel guy, um, they exploit a pandemic of cholera that's happening in that area of the jungle to pose as UN aid workers, poses doctors.
Uh, I like Jim Caviezel's handed a badge where he says, Hey, you're a doctor now.
To get into these jungle communities in order to, yeah, like look for this this one girl.
Isn't this a war crime?
Isn't this like against the Geneva Convention?
Absolutely.
And as I think some have pointed out, it would get any like doctors who come to the area for the next decade just immediately executed.
Like, yeah, this is this is this is like what we did to find Bin Laden or whatever was stage a fake like immunization program.
Yeah.
In the Middle East, it's like, yeah, you're just like sowing distrust for for generations of of medicine and, you know, like life saving immunization.
I will say to the fake doctor and vaccine thing, got a got a big chuckle out of the the boomers.
I bet it did.
And that's how easy it is.
They just they just hand you a badge and say you're a doctor.
Two totally separate points.
But like, that is really funny that, you know, he's like, I got to save this girl.
So I'm going to pretend like someone who could be saving hundreds of lives.
And then he goes on, he goes on to speak about it, like, like he talks about the outbreak.
He goes, it's going to listen.
If you know, if you don't let me help you because I'm a doctor, it's going to spread like wildfire, which is like fairly, you know, that's like true.
And just just totally missing the point of Man, I just built this whole shell thing and did they actually help anybody at all?
I doubt it.
And then on the vaccine point, there's a really funny part early on where somebody's helping them out and he's like, here's your GPS.
You can either put it in your wallet or you can inject it.
And I'm like, what do you mean inject it?
I was like, that is only for the vaccine people.
Like, yes, just to show, oh, no, see, you really can inject.
You really can inject the GPS, but it's already in a syringe.
How are you going to put it in your wallet?
I don't know.
I didn't understand that injected into the lining of your wallet.
I didn't understand that part.
Yeah, yeah.
So it's so funny, so stupid.
So full disclosure, I didn't I didn't finish this movie.
It I heard that he finally shoots somebody in a barehanded killing.
Yeah.
You didn't see the fight.
No.
Oh my god, it's, it's, it's the fight.
It's the fight you're leading, you're waiting for.
It's the one.
Like, the, the, the trafficker, he, who has the girl, who the girl's living with, is like, about to have sex with her, but he's already in the room, and he's like, nope, and then they have a fight that is, that sucks.
The one chance reaction sucks.
Yeah.
But he kills him.
He kills him real good.
It's so funny.
The lore about Kvitzel is not only can he not remember his lines, but that he's actually a danger to other actors when he does stunts and stuff.
There's a lot of stories about him doing Person of Interest, which was his big TV show.
And they had to stop him from driving cars or doing fight scenes because he was like, Too insane, too in character, and was actually, you know, could have hurt somebody, and he almost, like, ran pedestrians down in a car.
So I think when you see that fight at the end, they've strategically done it so he has to do as little as possible.
And there's no close-up fighting, yeah.
The entire fight is Jim Caviezel has him in, like, a headlock of swords, and somehow has his arm behind his back, and he's just punching him in the stomach while choking him out.
And that's just kind of happening in slow motion and cutting from that to the girl, that to the girl, and oftentimes just black screen with sounds behind it.
Because she's supposed to have her eyes closed.
Yeah, she's supposed to have her eyes closed, yeah.
And it's like, it's just so, it's just so, I can't, yeah, you're, cause you're like, cool, something's finally going to happen.
And then it's just so boring.
But now, yeah, I remember hearing that about Jim Caviezel and that makes total sense.
I think this is, he probably still hurt them though.
He probably still hurt the guy's neck.
Yeah, that guy probably has some medical pills to deal with.
Does he strangle the guy?
Does he kill him?
Yeah, he kills him, but it's shot so badly that you can't really even be sure how, but presumably he chokes him to death because there's no gun.
Yeah.
And then how does he get out of the encampment that's in the middle of the jungle?
Don't worry about it.
Well, of course all the other rebels are drunk and jamming out on guitar.
So he runs away and they notice that he's gone and then they chase him a little bit, but nope.
No luck for you.
The rebel encampment that is so fearsome that the Colombian army can't even go in there is totally helpless to catch this guy and kill him.
That rules.
And don't worry, he does get all the rest of the children that are in the encampment.
Except for not really.
He only gets the one girl still and bounces.
Great.
Any more scenes from this movie that you wanted to discuss, either of you?
When he meets the guy, his partner, who is known for buying children and freeing them.
That's the cartel guy.
When he meets him, the cartel guy, the cartel guy tells him, like, don't walk in here looking like you just walked out of a Banana Republic, which is only funny because I don't think that they know that a Banana Republic is a real thing.
And not just a clothing company.
And that is like something that has happened throughout South America and is actually one of the reasons why these crimes are happening.
Sure.
I don't think they meant to do that.
And that was that was very funny to me.
I did.
I did love the total lack of like a double entendre there.
They just meant it like the gap.
Yeah, it's so good.
And then also when that guy is telling the story about when he did accidentally be a pedophile, he says like, so the deed's done, he's feeling fine and good, but then he sees her toenails have kitten painted on them, and he's like, nope, this must be a child.
That's how you know.
And like, I don't know, just everything about like, They just made that up.
They just made that up completely.
I don't even know how you would paint a kitten on a toenail.
It's just a weird thing to just make up.
If it was a child, they'd probably have kittens paint on their toenails.
It's so fucking weird to me.
I looked up and I noticed she had a pink bow in her hair.
Another great thing about the character, his character is 10 months away from his pension.
Yeah.
His character could have just chilled for 10 months and then gone and saved so many more kids on the government's dime.
And he was like, no, no.
I thought it was so funny.
And then my favorite thing was the very, very end, the very, very end, the last scene.
And I know there were people crying during the last scene.
Miles, could you hear them?
Like, it's like they're probably moaning, crying or like, Laugh-crying, even?
Not totally, like, audibly crying, but, like, the whole movie was getting a lot of, like, very audible reactions.
So, yeah, I wouldn't be shocked.
I mean, people were shouting amen at certain points.
Oh, awesome.
Great.
Oh, when he's when he says God's children not not to be sold or not for sale or something like that.
Yeah.
Freaked out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Lost it.
People lost it.
People lost it when when he does the second unnecessary arrest of the pedophile that he's already arrested.
Yeah, I just do like a totally second like that's just that's just for the just just for the audience to like you've already busted that guy.
You've leaned on him to get the other pedophile trafficker connection.
You do a second SWAT staying at a random diner for no reason.
He's already like, yeah, under control.
Yeah, because I was in custody.
You could lean on him for anything.
You had 30 years looming over.
You know, you can get him to do it.
Arrest him again for like eight cops.
I love when he reveals that he's not actually a pedophile.
Yep.
To the pedophile.
He says, never trust a pedophile.
Yeah, the pedophile's like, I trusted you because never trust a pedophile.
Wow, I'm gonna get that tattooed somewhere.
That got a big reaction, yeah, for sure.
That's on a t-shirt right now.
Wow, that's so true.
Never go to a second location with a pedophile.
Oh, wow, I never thought about that.
That's true.
I will.
Yeah, everything about that sequence is is perfect because, yeah, he is just the only guy working over the weekend in DHS and he has complete carte blanche to just like.
Take out, take a prisoner out.
Yeah.
And just hang out wherever.
I did appreciate that twist in the story, though, because I thought it was going to go the prisoner's route, because he's like he goes into the cell while the guy's in there and the camera is there.
He looks up at the camera.
Yeah.
And he tells the guy, he's like, hey, let's go outside.
Why don't we take a walk?
And I'm like, oh, he's going to like, you know, express because this is like right after he was watching.
You kind of think he's going to waterboard him or something.
Yeah, but then he gets him outside and instead he's like, Oh, I love you.
Cause I'm a pedophile.
He's like, Oh, really?
For real?
You read my book?
Oh yeah.
I wrote a book about being a pedophile or something.
I will say there was a really good amount of like creepy white men representation as pedophiles.
I think that was really, that was really nice.
They did a good job there.
There were like, there were several creepy white men who were, who were part of the problem.
Yeah, credit where credit is due, for sure.
Yeah, and only like two of them had mustaches, so they did get some variety.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, they didn't want to be too homophobic.
So the best thing, like my favorite thing, was just how it ended.
Like I said, It doesn't end with the little girl with her father.
It doesn't end with the little girl with her brother and the family.
For some reason, the little girl has a bongo out of nowhere.
Hell yeah.
And she's just like playing the bongo.
That's an instrument they have over there.
That's the sound of freedom, bro.
Is that what it is?
No, the titular line is on the island when they free the kids.
By the way, this is another amazing thing about the movie I didn't really get to address.
When you save a kid from sex traffickers, the kid has already been sexually abused and enslaved.
Once the bad guys are in handcuffs, the kids are immediately all better.
Yes, they're all fine.
They're all great.
They start singing.
They start playing the bongos.
And then Vampiro, who's our cartel guy, tells Ballard, oh, do you hear that?
That's the sound of freedom.
And it's because the kids have seen that the bad guys are in handcuffs.
And so all their trauma has magically melted away.
Within seconds.
Now they're just chilling on a nice beach.
They're just singing.
They're playing the bongos.
Sound of Freedom.
There you go.
Amazing.
I knew that was going to be the Sound of Freedom.
I called it like 15 minutes into the movie.
I was like, the Sound of Freedom is going to be children laughing.
It's such a bad name for this movie.
I mean, it's a perfect name for this movie.
For the demographic.
It's got the word freedom right in there.
Sound of freedom sounds like the sound of liberty, true sounds of liberty, but not the punk band.
And but it's an awful name.
Like what's the sound of freedom?
I don't know.
You would go with something more like kidnap or something, you know, something a little more like with some guts to it.
We mentioned it earlier, but like you can't make this movie and act like Taken doesn't exist.
Yeah, it's a better movie, far better movie.
Yeah, it's an awesome movie.
And like there are so many opportunities.
Like the fact that he didn't snap anyone's neck is just a goddamn shame.
If you're going to take liberties, take some liberties.
I laugh so hard when he gets the guy out of the van at the border where he just like happened to be in the right place to spot.
Great coincidence.
Yeah, and he like pulls him out of the van and he just like kind of pushes him up against the fender and he's like, get him out of here.
It's like, that's it.
That's it.
Are you kidding me?
I mean, he also says when I thought this was supposed to be a movie.
What are we fucking doing here for the second time?
He says you're under arrest for crimes against children.
That's not how it like.
No, that's not.
That's like the crime is way more specific than that.
Crimes against children is not.
There's not like a broad umbrella that you just get double arrested for.
Because you gave the guy a tip on like how to connect with the traffickers.
I don't know, man.
He was violating the Crimes Against Children Act.
Yeah, that's what it was.
So just procedurally, the movie is super confused.
Yeah, wouldn't recommend it on almost any level.
No.
I wanted to get to some of these responses that you've been receiving, Miley.
Yeah, that's good.
Sorry, Miley on Twitter.
This one, you posted it here.
Jace underscore ko840 says, where's Miles Klee?
Is he at Epstein's grave leaving some flowers, most likely?
Paying my respects to the Godfather.
It's so funny.
Well, where's Miles Clee?
What does he do?
Is he writing and directing and performing in a one-man performance about how cool Jeffrey Epstein is on Broadway?
That's the best part.
This movie does not do that part.
Where they address, you know, rich Westerners, like rich white people who are part of this problem at all.
But it's just like the grand... It's all connected still.
Can you visit this grave?
OK, so I looked this up because I thought this comment was so funny.
He is buried in Palm Beach in a family plot, but it's an unmarked grave.
So unfortunately, you can't go do a rap squat on Epstein's grave because, you know, that would be Kind of based yeah wild wild to be to based they'll find they'll find it Oh, this was so good, okay?
This was from meme death 2021 and it says I Yes, I saw the same.
So he's talking about like empty theaters, sort of the AAMC like conspiracy theory stuff.
I actually went and pulled people out of other movies, especially Indiana Jones, giving them free tickets to switch to a switch to quote, a much better quality movie that you may enjoy much, much more.
That's wild.
Didn't happen.
That didn't happen.
I'm sorry.
Are you sure?
You tapped some people on the shoulder who were watching Indiana Jones and said, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I know you already paid for this movie, but I got a free ticket for this dog shit you guys see.
Like doing a stage whisper.
Hey, there's a much better movie.
It's theater 12.
So you're going to go that way and then right.
But nobody, free seats.
I got you a ticket.
I loved that.
That's definitely real.
Definitely.
Even if it weren't real, it's a good idea to have to do.
I believe it if he said maybe he threw in some popcorn, then maybe some people went.
If you if you shot a guy who did that to you in a movie theater in like a stand your ground state, you'd be fine.
Yeah, you'd be OK.
You could finish the movie.
Yeah.
This is from Bryson Contreras.
Who's email is right here Which is amazing.
So people were like volunteer.
This is Bryce on C 2018 at gmail.com this guy threatened you with his actual email address to Miles Klee I'm going to find you pedo groomer so we can have a chat.
See you soon.
I look forward to our conversation Yeah.
So not as funny.
That one's not as funny.
Clearly more of a threat.
I'm going to send him a link to the movie Prisoners so he gets some technique ideas.
Yeah.
I look forward... Do you think it's really going to be a conversation, Miles?
Yeah, that's an interesting way to put it.
I like his... I kind of like his style because Again, you know, I think there's so much LARPing in and around the film, and he really is trying to make it sound like he's, you know, like Liam Neeson in Taken, or someone just so badass that he can, like, use this... In a way, the subject line where he calls me a pedo groomer is too bad, because the understated euphemism is much more powerful.
That's true.
The conversation is clearly, I don't know, an interrogation, and I think some of these people visualize doing to me what happens to the first pedo in this movie, which is that he gets tricked into revealing more connections, and then he just gets brutalized by cops again.
Yeah, you're just going to be the jump off point for the rest of their victory.
Yeah, because I'm also, if I'm not a pedo myself, I'm just like covering for them.
You know, I'm the first step.
I do feel bad for guys that look like you right now.
There's some guy just in the middle of middle America, walking down the street in a tank top, enjoying their day.
And some guy's yelling across the street from them.
You pedo!
Hollywood elitist!
This guy's like, what the fuck is going on?
Yeah, I apologize.
I apologize to that guy.
There's some poor Scientologists that looks like you.
You got two emails from Ross Perlman.
Nice.
Frog6toad at gmail.com.
I love that email.
It's adorable.
He doesn't deserve it.
Miles.
He says, fuck you.
You suck.
Drop.
Oh, sorry.
Fuck you.
You suck.
Drop dead and go to hell.
Donald J. Trump, 2024.
MAGA.
Sincerely, Donald J. Trump.
And then he also said in a separate email, you fucking son of a bitch.
Oh, I love it.
Just so mad at you.
There was a third email actually, same vein where it's just like, fuck you.
And then the text was all caps and it's, somebody told me you suck.
I think that was it in a nutshell, which is just a bunch of right-wing rags hit pieces on me, and it's like, oh, somebody told him that I suck, and now he knows that I suck, and he knows that I exist, and he knows that he has to harass me.
It was very literal in that sense.
I was told to come here!
I'm so glad I didn't see this link to the Gateway Pundits article about you.
This is an article about you, right?
Yeah.
Jim Hoft, smartest guy in the right-wing media bubble.
Yeah, he he posted some old like Instagram photos.
They're pretty funny.
He he like falsely he he believed some other right wing idiot who said I had been run off or I had locked down my Twitter.
Actually, my Twitter has been my old Twitter has been locked since like March because I did like a prank where I impersonated NASA while I still had a blue check.
So I got banned, but the account is still up and just locked.
And so a bunch of people who were really mad found that account and decided that I was, like, hiding.
Yeah.
And Jim Hoft is one of those, one of those idiots.
That's the only reason why.
You can do whatever you want on Elon's Twitter.
So it must only be because, you know, it's you.
Yeah, so I'm still active on a much smaller account now, which I pointed out, and then the original guy who accused me of hiding then tried to sick more people on the new account.
Their attention span is only so long.
It was pretty intense for a while, but they get pretty bored.
Yeah, this is crazy.
I'm reading through this article that they wrote about you.
Yeah, fun stuff.
This isn't your first run-in with this type of person, but because it's like the pedo-hunter niche amongst the conservative right, it's probably the Most extreme demographic you've offended?
Definitely, definitely.
I mean, I've had, you know, a week of harassment from, you know, anti-vaxxers or, you know, groups like that and definitely far-right groups and a lot of like adjacent and overlap.
The pedo thing is kind of the most intense smear you can get, and it obviously gets people the most riled up.
Yeah, by design.
And inclined to say they're going to kill you in so many words, yeah.
Yeah, it's permission to just do whatever the fuck you want to do to somebody.
It's, uh, it's extreme.
Yeah.
Um, and it's just, I was going to show this early, but yeah, this is one of the Rolling Stone replies, um, on Twitter.
Savannah Hernandez, don't know who that is, but her cover photo is her and Tucker Carlson, uh, replied to the Rolling Stone article he wrote with, we get it.
You're pedophiles.
And this has 34,000 likes in the reply of the Rolling Stone tweet.
This is like, I'm not in the publishing industry.
Doesn't this count as libel?
Yeah, it's an interesting thing people have talked about.
Like a promoted tweet, essentially, because they paid to have the blue check.
Yeah.
Accusing Rolling Stone of being pedophiles with 34,000 likes.
34,000 likes.
This truly insane platform.
You know, I'm it's annoying that that kind of stuff gets so much visibility when other people are actually doing the work of, for example, I got a reply from some guy who had actually done the work of Photoshopping the Rolling Stone logo.
So it said Rolling Groomers.
And I'm like, OK, so this is good.
This is good OC.
This is original content like you've actually Contributed something like, oh, I have an idea like it's they're rolling groomers now and I'm going to get.
Yeah, I'm going to open Photoshop and I'm going to make the make this font and I'm going to post this like I wish that stuff got a little more traction than just.
It's so easy to be like your entire magazine is pedophiles like everyone there.
Very fun like you know that's just lazy and even beyond that.
I will say that.
I've been truly blown away by some of the responses just in terms of how many ways they have found to misspell pedophile.
None of them can spell pedophile.
It's something I was not really aware of, but they are just throwing in totally... Some guy, I think I quote tweeted him because it was so funny, but it was like, He spelled it with like a P-H-Y, like pedophile.
I'm like, where are you reading?
That's the way you would spell it if you were a 90s rapper who was a pedophile.
Yeah, it's the far side version of... I am so amazed at like their concern about pedophilia compared to like their complete inability to fucking type the word.
Well the thing is, they use it so often, they use it so often incorrectly that now the autocorrect just fills in the incorrect version.
That's happened with several words, not that word.
I think your argument actually, Miles, is fairly classist.
I think you can have any level of education and still care about murdering pedophiles.
I'll check my privilege on that one.
Very early mistake.
How many more?
I loved where you tweeted out, uh, anybody still pissed about my Sound of Freedom review who wants to do something about it should know that this is where I live.
Come on by.
And you just posted a photo of the Scientology headquarters.
This is probably the one in LA with, yeah, a window circled in red with an arrow pointing to it.
And again, if you're not familiar with the building, it says Scientology gigantic on the front of it with a giant cross and all that.
Looks like an old insane asylum with the words Scientology on it This person quote tweeted it just their name is just thinking reading and enjoying probably Twitter maybe Okay, they say well at least we know where the pedo sympathizer lives just finished watching the movie and it was amazing hashtag sound of freedom
So I think if this person does show up, um, they're going to get a copy of Dianetics and their life is going to change.
Yeah.
I'm excited for them.
This might be their big Hollywood break, actually.
Uh, I did, I did have some friends, uh, joking that, uh, uh, These QAnon people were going to show up to the Scientology building and accidentally rescue Shelly Miscavige, who is the missing wife of the head of the church.
And yeah, I was like, oh yeah, that would be their first human trafficking rescue.
That would be huge.
That'd be epic for them, yeah.
Epic crossover.
Yeah, and well, I don't know, because Tom Cruise has a new movie out.
They really want to, like, Go against him?
Would they really want to do negative promotion for Mission Impossible?
I don't know.
I think he's too solidly in their camp for them to really give too much of a shit about.
They'd probably throw her back if they found Shelly Miscavige.
Well, I've been going to showings of Mission Impossible and at gunpoint telling people they have to go see the movie in the theater next door.
Good.
And they've all gone.
So they've all they've all come with me.
Mortified.
I forgot about Tom Cruise being like a Scientologist for some reason.
You know, I'm just so enamored with him doing his own stunts.
I don't really pay attention to that stuff.
Yeah.
I liked I like how Mortified Penguin added you to their list.
Pro-child rape.
It's a whole list, huh?
Cartoon, Penguin, Avatar.
So again, just like their feed for jerking off.
I don't know.
Yeah, because this did happen a lot where I was getting added to lists that were like pedos or whatever, which this is the only I usually just mute people on Twitter.
But if they try to add me to a list like that, I will block them because I'm not getting out of any fucking list.
But I think if you're keeping a list that says like pedos or like pro child rape, it's like it doesn't look good for you.
If someone tries to report you, it looks like you're And no one wants that.
Well, this is that's why you keep the Rorschach mask on you.
You just get you just put it on if you get caught and they know like murder was in your heart.
I think there's just one here.
Yeah, this is the other Ross Perlman email.
He says, fuck you.
And then the body of the message is somebody told me you suck a little.
A little birdie told me you suck ass.
You're great children.
I'm gonna start saying, instead of like insulting someone, I'm gonna say that someone else told me that that's about you.
Yeah, just hearsay.
It's more than my opinion, it's somebody else said it and I also I agree with it.
See that, well that's how you don't get sued for libel.
Yeah.
Like somebody told me you literally rape kids.
Yeah, I was indoctrinated to think you suck.
Well, thanks so much, Miles, for reliving all this stuff with us.
