Time Text
The liberals are destroying California and conservative humor gone awry.
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.
Stay tuned, guys.
We'll show you exactly what you're doing.
We'll show you exactly what it looks like when you're doing the business.
All there in Martin, Houston.
Stay tuned.
I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
And we are Minion Death Cult.
The world is ending.
The mugshot scene around the world is responsible.
We're documenting it.
What's up, everybody?
It is your episode for the week.
Thanks for listening.
Got just two really solid Minion Death Cult topics to talk about.
So let's just dive right in.
Let's get it.
The day is finally here.
We knew it was coming, but it's still hard to prepare.
A man who got too close to the halls of power and needed to be stopped at any cost.
He was finally taken down.
And I'm, of course, talking about Tony Boswell, whose Twitter account was suspended by Elon Musk.
Yeah, I mean, I wish it was suspended.
Apparently they are never going to reinstate it, is what they've told me.
Which makes me want to cry a little bit, but it's okay.
It's good.
Just don't let my name be forgotten.
Yeah, yeah.
A good way to do that is by following your new account at WordIsBondTV on Twitter.
No, yeah, you were banned from Twitter merely for asking us to explore alternatives to the current carceral justice system.
For one, Donald J. Trump, you said something like, You know, as an abolitionist, I don't I don't appreciate all the all the excitement and fervor around another man going going to well, not to prison, but but at least being processed through the system.
And instead, maybe we should think about beating him with hammers in a public square.
I think so.
All I wanted to do, I wanted people to talk, I wanted dialogue about accountability and what maybe alternatives to the current justice system look like.
I think maybe that scares people, maybe that scares the establishment.
I guess that's what it is.
Yeah, and I think I might have even been editorializing.
Nothing about here says death.
I'm looking at the offending tweet right here.
It actually says, we should be advocating Two beat him with a hammer.
And that's just one hammer.
I think that's fair.
It's not like mob justice or anything.
We're only talking about one.
Also, we're only talking about Advocating for that.
We're not talking about doing it.
We're talking about advocacy, about, like you said, opening a dialogue, sharing ideas, exploring ideas.
How are we supposed to know if that idea is bad if we don't get to talk and post about it?
Oh, it's bad just because I got suspended from Twitter for it?
Well, that's not very convincing.
And what are they so afraid of?
If he is who some people think he is, what's a hammer going to do to him?
You know?
Is it even going to hurt?
What's going to happen if a soy boy swings a hammer?
Is it even going to hurt him?
You know, who knows?
These are the questions I want answers to and we're never going to get those answers because we've been silenced.
Yeah, back to the whole, like, shutting down discourse or whatever.
Rick and Morty meme.
Rick saying, I don't care what offends you or what you think should be banned from Twitter, because I've seen what you applaud on Twitter.
And it's a picture of the watermarked image of child sex abuse material that Dom Luker posted.
Yeah, that I literally cited in my appeal.
I was like, you guys did this, please just just like just delete the tweets you didn't like and we can keep it pushing.
And they just well, I mean, the algorithm just said, nope.
What I do think is very funny is that when you do get suspended now and you do your appeal, the correspondence is still from Twitter.
The correspondent still has the bird branding, the bird logo.
It's so it's like it's so I'm like, you know, I thought I was on X over here.
And apparently it's another lie.
It's another facade.
Maybe our anger is directed at the wrong people.
Maybe it's the rogue Twitter holdouts inside of X that actually suspended you, Tony.
Maybe we're mad at the wrong person.
That's true.
Maybe somebody is still sleeping in the office that we don't know about.
Yeah, just pretend that Tony posted the most horrible material known to man and personally reinstate his account.
Elon?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Maybe the hammers were too close to home because they thought maybe I was a gay lover.
One hammer.
Yeah, exactly.
Sorry, one hammer.
Yeah.
Maybe they thought I was like a gay lover or something like that who was coming to, you know, harm another politician.
But that's not what I was doing.
That's not what I was doing at all.
No, no.
But, I mean, to be fair, Tony, after being banned and persecuted by the elites, do you now maybe know how Donald Trump feels?
Do you now maybe have some sympathy for one of the most persecuted figures in all history?
Human history, at least?
You know, I had a lot of time to think about this because I wasn't getting Twitter notifications like I usually do because there was no Twitter.
I was thinking about this while I was on my plane, on my private plane.
Flying you know coast to coast just for funsies, and I was like yeah, I do I do I do know I Have empathy now I understand Which is why I'm gonna post more selfies just like that uh Just like the mugshot going around.
I'm gonna also post more pictures of myself Yeah in solidarity with him you know I warned Tony, I said, you know, are you concerned about maybe getting a visit from the FBI?
Like, this could be construed in our wacky, upside-down society as some sort of a threat against a former politician.
But then you actually posted more memes threatening the FBI with hammers, saying if the FBI shows up, I'm... Now, this is not me saying this.
But you said some pretty interesting stuff directly to the FBI that some might read as a threat to a federal agent.
So I just wanted to get your thoughts on that.
Um, I, I actually, I remember endorsing the FBI, uh, and thinking that maybe they could actually do what they love to do the most.
That was, I think that's what I did.
That was my favorite.
I, I, you know, we're talking about the hammer, but my favorite tweet of yours was in response, you know, we're going to get into this Trump, uh, mugshot discourse and some of the dumbest, some of the most dog shit brained uh reaction to this is wow he's just like mlk because they both have a mug shot now and uh your response was cool i hope the fbi does the same thing to him that they did to mlk yeah
so i'm so actually i we have to be honest i am not sure which tweet triggered it um uh But I wouldn't be surprised if the FBI, because I do think this might be bigger than X, because like I said, there's still a Twitter branding on my, you know, in my notifications from them saying, you're no longer there.
And I think they're scared, but it's like, hey guys, you guys are already admitted to doing this.
This is, it's on the record.
You guys have said this is what we did.
I'm just merely citing history.
Right.
Cool.
Yeah, no, that's true.
I would just, you know, let's move on to the main guy, but I would just maybe caution against posting the crying, laughing Facebook word art of you with the emoji of an FBI agent being hit on the head with a giant hammer.
Or the like little animation that I saw of, yeah, an FBI bleeding out with the GTA wasted font superimposed over it.
Maybe cool it with that just a little bit till the fuzz dies down, I would say.
I mean, thank God.
That's how I found out I was suspended.
I was trying to post that and it kept going to drafts and I was like, what's happening here?
And then I eventually found out that in fact, yeah, I no longer had that ability.
I did, it's funny, I posted about it on TikTok, and within seconds, I had a response saying like, hey, if you weren't complaining about it under Cuck Jack, you don't get to complain about it now.
I just, I just love that that's, that's, people, the shroud has been pulled over everyone's eyes.
Yeah, it's so funny how, like, everybody finally discovered mods?
Like, everybody finally discovered that other people control what they post on the internet?
Yeah.
It's a sad truth.
I do want to point out one, because I do have a gripe with, and I think this is a symptom, and I said it with a vicious typo, but we have a problem with media literacy in this world where the post that the show did about my getting banned now has over a thousand likes, yet I have only a couple hundred people following me.
So they claim to understand what's happening by liking it.
But they are not... I don't understand.
I couldn't have made it more clear that there is a way to stand up against this, and that is to interact and light the thirst trap immediately below it.
It's sad.
It's sad, and it's something that I hope that we as a country can address.
Media literacy needs to... Like, you're seeing it, but are you understanding it?
And I think that's something that's a plague to the minds of this country.
I agree.
I 100% agree with that.
If we taught kids, if we went back to the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic back in schools, I would definitely have more Twitter followers.
Yeah, exactly.
God damn it.
Makes me sad.
Yeah, so another way you can help us stand up to this injustice, help send a message to the elites in Washington and San Francisco that we won't tolerate this kind of targeted harassment against one of our own, is to see us live in New York City on September 10th and Philadelphia on September 12th.
And you know what?
They'll try to stop you, but we have actually put in a special request With these ticketing agencies, you can actually go to both shows.
Normally, they don't allow it.
Normally, they won't let you in, but we have secured because, you know, these these businesses, sure, they're businesses, but they can tell when they can tell when it's time to do the right thing.
And they've allowed people to buy more than one ticket, even if you don't have If you don't have somebody to go with, you know, that's... Leave an open space for John Galt or whatever when you come see our show.
We're fine with that.
But buy a ticket for truth, bring truth, bring truth and justice with you.
You know, I think I'd like to thank the good people of New York City in Philadelphia for for standing with us and letting us because they can they can censor our tweets.
But, you know, they can't take away our voices.
So thank you for allowing us to lift our voices up and be heard.
Yeah.
So please, please support.
Please support liberty, free speech and truth by coming to these shows.
And I would also like to thank the kind folks from New York and Philadelphia for flouting the stereotypes of their various cities and extending the hand of friendship to us, offering us drugs and good places to eat.
Really appreciate that.
You're a credit to your city, okay?
You're not all bad.
I do want to say, um, I'm a bit insulted with some of the prices people have been telling me about the drugs they're trying to sell me.
I don't know if you know my background at all, but I am never going to pay that much for drugs.
That is, that is, that is, that's cute.
That's really cute.
Um, and maybe it's some California elitism, but, uh, thanks, but no thanks.
I think maybe you just passed the first test.
I mean, I, I helped write the test, so.
Oh, $100 for a G?
You're not going to pay that?
I knew you were smart.
I knew you were one of the good ones.
Alright, $50.
Just for you.
Cool, cool, cool.
Yeah, ticket links will be in this episode's description.
Come see us with Antifada, Poddam America in New York, and then Antifada, and well, there's your problem in Philadelphia.
Sold a ton of tickets already.
It's going to be a fucking blast.
Hope to see everybody out there.
I'm so excited there's enough people there for us to stage dive.
I think that's just really cool.
Can't wait for that.
Oh man, did I ever tell the story about my high school graduation?
No.
I did a stage dive after getting my diploma, but it was like not onto a crowd.
There was like a grass embankment.
At the front of the stage.
And so I just jumped and slid down that because I, I, I could not care less about high school.
I fucking hated high school.
I'm just like, here's, here's an opportunity to do something fun for me.
Um, and I did it and I like clipped the Jostens photographer on my way down, apparently.
And she got a photo of me being escorted out by security.
Again, punished for truth, for freedom, at least since my formative years.
But yeah, something like that is going to happen too.
And I also hope in this case, at this show, that also nobody presses charges against me.
That was the beginning of them trying to restrict your movements.
Absolutely.
I knew then that it was my destiny in life to get loose.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, so on with the show.
The Donald Trump mugshot dropped.
Donald Trump got arrested for, what, the fourth time now?
Kind of running on fumes here with regards to this particular controversy.
The actual ruling against him, that'll be something else, right?
That's going to be interesting, yeah.
And something.
Yeah, but another arrest, another booking, not really a big deal.
They really needed the mugshot this time, I think, to push it over the edge.
And...
I mean, it happened pretty much exactly, the reaction to this happened pretty much exactly the way we said it would go down, which is the creation of some of the most god-awful memes you've ever seen, and that you will ever see, and you are going to be seeing these for the rest of your life.
Absolutely.
I am, of course, talking- You're not going to go anywhere.
No.
I am, of course, talking about the Thug Life edit, Mm-hmm.
And the, quote, blood gang sign edit.
I hate it.
I hate it so much.
Do you remember us talking about this?
I don't remember what episode it was.
Listener, if you know what episode it was, you could point me in the right direction.
That would be fantastic.
It's probably too late by this point.
But we talked about this, about dropping the mugshot.
We said he's going to use it on merch.
Yep.
He's going to love it.
He's going to use it on merch, which is obvious.
It's an obvious thing to do.
So not a big call there.
But they're going to edit The sunglasses onto him, saying Thug Life, and you know how we knew they were going to do that?
Because it's a 15-year-old meme.
Yeah.
So we were like, OK, what happened 15 years ago?
That's what they'll do.
And then I think even doing the blood hand signal, because we've talked about the fake blood gang sign recently, and I think it might have been in that context.
And yeah, the reason they did this one is because it's even older.
It's like 30 years old now.
Yeah.
What's funny is I think that they would say we're saying it's old and played.
I think they're saying it's just timeless.
This is timeless memeing right here.
What are you talking about?
This is Coca-Cola right here.
And he's in the edit with the blood sign.
He's in the presidential windbreak.
It's a totally different photo.
They just put the sheriff watermark over it.
But.
Yeah, what's what's the idea here that that he's just a blood like since he went to prison, he's a blood.
I don't think they even understand the idea of, you know, different gangs.
I think they just think gang, thug, heart.
And what's funny about this is, you know, in this context, they respect it.
It's like, oh, they respect it.
They think this is cool.
But in real life, I don't think they do much respecting to actual bloods.
And I would love to see what YG has to say about this picture.
Sure.
Um, well, it's, it's, they're so desperate for like cultural relevance because again, like we, we all, you know, like we cover every week on this show, it's about the culture war.
It's about having impact on the culture.
You know, you can have all the political power in the world, but it doesn't matter if people don't think you're cool or funny or smart or whatever.
Um, So they're desperate.
They're desperate for that kind of like political credit or clout, if you will.
Like today, I was looking at the conservative G-Ma Facebook page.
And like her bio, her bio is like, yes, I am a Hispanic grandma.
Yes, I have grandkids.
And like that was it.
That was like all about that was what was about her.
Tells you everything you need to know.
And I was looking through her posts and she had that post that's like, attention rock stars, celebrities, and athletes.
If I wanted to know what you had to say, I would turn on ESPN, or MTV2, or what gave you the idea that you're important at all?
And then I'm not joking, literally the post right after that was, I stand with Jason Aldean!
Try that in a small town, American flag, American flag.
Like, they're just so transparently pathetic and, like, desperate.
Just desperate for any, like, any amount of coolness they can get.
So yeah, this, yes, you're a gangbanger deserving of being shot down in the street unless we can get something out of that.
And then it's cool again.
There's this video that I share with people who I kind of want to get into F1 and introduce to who Lewis Hamilton is.
And the video is talking about how he was one of the greatest drivers ever and he just won everything he could possibly win.
And then he kind of decided to become bigger than that.
He got in a lot of trouble for speaking out during the George Floyd uprising, wearing shirts on the podium and being quite vocal with the sponsors.
And the person giving the commentary is being moved by it.
And he says, you know, It became bigger than sports for him.
He said, I'm doing this for people that aren't me anymore.
I'm doing this for people I'm never going to meet.
This is bigger than me.
And it's funny that they feel that way about Jason Aldean's song.
They're like, no, no, no.
I know I sound like a hypocrite, but he's being bigger than music.
He's not doing this for money.
He's not doing this for attention.
He's doing this for something bigger than him.
More memes here.
And this one's not a meme, but it's awful, so I figured we could cover it.
It's so awful.
This is from the Twitter account Las Vegas Locally.
Somebody in Las Vegas had Trump's mugshot tattooed on his thigh.
And we're seeing a photo of it here.
Looks bad, man.
Looks really bad.
How did you make his mouth look weirder than the one in the photo?
Well, I think it's because they did a hyper-realistic tattoo within an hour of the photo being... So this is like a rushed hyper-realistic tattoo already.
I feel like the kind of person who would be into doing this might...
There also might be the kind of person who kind of skips the stencil stage, the stencil like step.
Yeah.
They kind of rush through that.
And it looks like it shifted a little bit while doing the mouth is what it looks like.
It looks like he had a stroke.
It does.
It looks like the right side of Trump's face is paralyzed.
Yeah, that is what exactly what it looks like.
You're I think you're totally right about this being a rushed job, because not only does it have not only is it a tattoo of Trump and then, of course, he's got the teardrop.
This is the classic teardrop that gangbangers get when they get booked one time in a prison and then released for on parole, not parole, released on bond.
Yeah, this is the one that you get when you get released from your booking and this is the one you get on your private plane when you leave being booked.
This is the one.
Sorry, what I was building toward was there's a 1 out of 45 Also on the tattoo so like underneath the tattoo also is tattooed one out of 45 So these are hand-numbered tattoos out of 45 meaning, you know 45th president.
Yeah this guy Vegas Vic tattoos definitely was like I'll tattoo the mugshot on the next 45 people that come through the door for only $200 or $300 or whatever and so that's why this looks like such shit is because he's trying to do 45 of these in a single day Is that what he's doing?
I'm just guessing.
It's not in a single day, probably.
He probably would if he got enough clients for that.
But that is what 1 out of 45 means.
He means he's only going to tattoo this 45 times.
That's awesome.
I thought it was the lib thing that I've been seeing.
I like I like made the mistake of telling some a friend like a chill.
It's just a picture.
And they're like, yeah, but it's the first one of any president.
Only one only one president has ever had a picture of like this taken of them.
Like this is the only one.
Nixon didn't even have a mugshot.
I thought maybe that's what he was saying.
But but I think you're right.
I think he's like, yo, this is a limited edition tattoo.
I'm going to do on forty five people, which is a wild approach for a tattoo artist.
Absolutely.
I love the one out of 45 like it's like it's a hand numbered like it's a hand numbered seven inch with like, you know, hand stamped labels or something like all tattoos are hand hand done.
You don't have to get like a one out of 40.
That's very they're all really funny.
Really funny.
The way the hair blends into the face is so funny.
There's no definition there.
It's wild.
Bad tattoo.
Portraiture is a hard thing to do and this is an example of why.
Another thing they've been doing with the mugshot is trying to make Trump look handsome with it.
They've been face-apping it so that he just looks better?
Yep.
Yep.
They've been, they've been, uh... Oh my god, I just forgot the word for it.
They've been yassifying it?
Oh, yassifying.
Is this yassifying?
Yassifying is a very specific thing.
This is like AI, like high definition cheekbones.
Like they tried to make him look like the Giga Chad a little bit.
But as somebody else pointed out, and by somebody else, I mean a fucking 75 year old and one of my grandpas for Trump Facebook groups, they say, wow, he looks like David Coverdale, the singer of Whitesnake.
I'm like, that is exactly what they were going for too, for sure.
The 60 year old who did this shit, that's exactly what they were... Well, see the thing is, the one I saw, it's the same face, but with long blonde hair.
Oh, I did see that one.
Yeah.
Is David Coverdale like a babe?
Yeah.
He's he's like if you thought if you think Swedish supermodel Swedish male model like that's why I saw a current image of him and I did that's not what I was BS not looking at the old ones.
Yeah.
Yeah, totally totally that chin and everything like looks like one of those guys that's so handsome.
He looks like an alien.
Yeah, too handsome.
But I mean, honestly, I'd rather people doing photoshops of him and make him look so hot than the people who were just like, he just looks hot.
He just looks good without the photoshop.
Yeah, he looks hard.
Yeah, he looks hard.
He looks so hard.
Did you see that video?
Let me pull it up real quick.
The wording of what we're about to hear is fantastic.
Yeah, this is Jesse Watters on Fox News.
Jesse Watters of Watters World, who I think is taken over for Tucker now.
He's taken over Tucker's time slot.
I think so.
This is the guy who posts the text messages his mom sends him.
He like does segments about how much his mom hates him.
We covered it one time.
You can probably find it if you like search Watters World and Minion Death Cult, but Yeah, he posts the text messages his mom sends him, where she's like, Honey, I'm worried you're too far gone down the rabbit hole.
Please come back.
And he's like, Oh, moms.
That's so sad.
Imagine if your mom sent you that because of this show.
You might rethink the show for a second.
You might be like, Ooh, maybe this is not a way to go.
Yeah, I don't know.
He's like, Nope, I'm going to lean into it and post it.
I listen to my mother, so I don't have that problem.
That's right.
I'm now going to book the Fulton County photographer for my Christmas card.
Because... We should say, like, the mugshot itself, like, Trump, he looks mad, is like the best, most charitable way to put it.
He looks kind of psychopathic.
We'll get into that in more of these responses.
But he looks grumpy and frumpy and like, I don't know, a little defeated, to my mind at least.
Yeah, he's not pumped.
Because judge, and I say this with a unblemished record of heterosexuality, he looks good and he looks hard and.
He looks good and he looks hard.
Hard is not the word I would use here, because the thing is, he is doing this.
His posture is bad in this.
It looks like he's having trouble holding his head up like his neck is not supporting his head.
Yeah, but he looks ashamed a little bit.
He doesn't look hard at all.
He doesn't look menacing.
He looks like a kid who just got in trouble.
Yeah.
And hard's not the word.
I just know that when he's doing that, right before he says, on blemish record of heterosexuality, that shhh that you hear, it's just dicks.
Just a thousand dicks running through his mind.
You're talking about this part.
Say this with a unblemished record.
That was a thousand dicks.
No, this is my theory about it.
Judge, and I say this with a unblemished record.
My theory is he was going to say, I say this with a sparkling record of heterosexuality.
And he realized maybe sparkling is too gay of a word to use to describe my heterosexuality.
And so he came up with unblemished.
Just think about that and listen to it back real quick.
With a unblemished record of heterosexuality.
And then after he says he looks good, just dead air.
Listen.
Yep.
He looks good.
And...
And... Just dying.
Just fucking dying.
It's so good.
Thank you, Jesse.
I think that's why you had to put the hard part, because you can't just say that a man looks good.
You have to be like, oh, I mean, he looks like tough.
Like he looks like...
He looks tough.
He looks heterosexual.
He looks heterosexual.
And I know a thing or two about heterosexuality.
And that's how he looks.
Cause like, you know, you can't, you can't be like, Hey man, your body looks great.
You gotta be like, Hey, looking jacked, bro.
Right.
Looking jacked.
Well, you're looking, uh, firm.
Proper tight.
I'm more concerned about you, like, liking this old dude than liking a dude.
Uh, so, more memes here.
We're entering the meme stage of...
We like that he looks evil in this photo.
We like that he looks kind of like a maniac.
Tim Poole posted an Obama, Shepard Fairey, Hope parody of Trump, but it says revenge underneath.
It says REVENGE underneath instead of hope.
Like, what does he mean, like, is he saying that, because he's not saying America's getting revenge, he's saying, like, Donald Trump's going to get revenge for this?
Yeah, Donald Trump is going to get revenge, but since you're parasocially connected to him and you just, you know, you like him as a punishment for all the people you don't like, then you get your revenge too.
Everybody's happy.
Now I will say the reason why I do like this, the reason why I do like this Shepard Fairey Hope ripoff is because I know that Shepard Fairey hates this.
And that makes me laugh.
That brings me a little bit of joy.
That's a good point.
Um, yeah.
And then, uh, Jack Posobiec posted a video kind of inexplicable video that starts off with the mugshot with Trump's face in the mugshot and there's ominous music over it.
And then it slowly zooms out to reveal that Donald Trump is standing in like a blood red field with a blood red sky surrounded by crows getting ready to attack you.
That's just because if you're Jack Posobiec.
Like, aren't you part of the army that's going to be behind him?
Does he need an army of crows and dark souls to defend him?
I guess you can't use the Charlottesville images or January 6th images.
It's a metaphor, but yes, I will be plucking out the eyes of Donald Trump's enemies.
It's a metaphor, but it's also kind of based in something.
It is pretty cool.
Um, and then...
Jack Posobiec also retweeted this tweet from Ye Long Musk, who says the Kubrick stare is the term given to the trademark low angle shot of a man who has been pushed to the edge.
He feels like he has been wronged by the world around him and polluted by inferior beings in a universe of treachery that he is ready to enact vengeance like Odysseus.
And he's posted, yeah, a compilation of all the extreme psychopaths in Kubrick films like Alex DeLarge.
Rapist Alex DeLarge.
Murderer Jack from The Shining.
And then also, who's the guy from... I don't remember his name.
Porkins?
I don't know.
I think that's the name.
Yeah, this is Full Metal Jacket, right?
Yeah.
The the guy who puts a gun in his mouth and pulls the trigger.
That's our guy.
And Donald Trump is, of course, among this collage.
And I mean, it does bear a striking resemblance to all of these all of these other figures.
Yeah.
Like, do they really- I mean, the thing is, they're not wrong, they just have the wrong approach because this is like a right-wing tradition, you know, like, R-wording, killing your family, having a mental breakdown and shooting up a bunch of people, and then Donald Trump.
Yeah.
Like, that's who these characters are.
To, like, accidentally empathize with one of these characters because you have some fucked up weird thing?
Sure.
Uh-huh.
All three slash four?
You need some... Like, this is actually almost a great ironic post.
Sure.
Like, if you were to post this, this would be hilarious.
I would find joy in this.
But this scares me.
This one scares me.
I can't wait until Donald Trump rises above all of this, proves all of these people wrong in 2024 when he enters a McDonald's and holds the entire restaurant hostage with a shotgun.
There's people out there that are like, oh man, if only Donald Trump could get a gun, if he would only have a gun, that'd be, this would change everything.
Can you imagine Trump shooting a gun?
No.
No.
How come that hasn't happened?
Oh wait, hold on, hold on.
No, you know what I can imagine?
I can imagine Trump shooting a gun, a Derringer that he pulls out of his garter belt with his small hands.
A little tiny baby one.
That is the best.
I think if there were to be a tape of him in a shooting range, then he wins every election until we're all dead.
Uh, you guys are laughing now.
You're laughing at the mugshot.
You're laughing at him booking.
Yeah, but just wait until he gets, uh, so coked out that he becomes paranoid and starts hallucinating helicopters, uh, until he eventually winds up, uh, ratting on his closest friends and associates.
Which, actually, a plausible scenario.
So, yeah.
Yeah, you just wait.
Good stuff.
Yeah, and, and this is like... This seems to be a genuine...
Way they're trying to rally for Trump is like, no, you vote for him to get the retribution that you want.
You vote for him so that he can punish the and punish your enemies, punish the enemies of the people who wrong or sorry, punish his enemies, the people who wronged him.
And that was like kind of their sell on Trump in the first place.
But they're really leaning into it.
And they seem to think it's like a good public facing strategy.
To be like, oh yeah, no, we're voting for the winds of plague.
We're voting for a great, like, leveling of society here.
Like, Cernovich tweeted this out, quote, I can't vote for Trump.
He's a big meanie.
So, like, trying to challenge, like, you know, the normie voter or whatever about why they can't vote for Trump.
Yeah, so I can't vote for Trump.
He's a big meanie.
End quote.
You killed all those kids in Maui with your fake morality.
You are collaborating with the cartels and the largest slave trafficking operation in world history.
You do not have the high road.
You are not moral.
Scum!
Who is he talking to?
He's talking to the potential voter.
He's talking to a potential Trump voter.
I am kind of like It's a bummer that Cernovich understands that what happened in Maui is really bad.
And then there's people visiting Hawaii right now on vacation who are like libs.
Sure.
I think most people understand that what happened in Maui was bad.
The right wing is is particularly focusing on it because Biden is in charge, because Biden is president.
That's that's literally why.
Yeah.
And then, of course, a bunch of rich libs own land in Hawaii.
So, yeah, you could fine dunk on them for for doing that.
But that's that's that's why they care about Hawaii and Maui and you killed all those kids in Maui with your fake morality.
I think this is definitely like this is a good way forward.
Like, you know, when you go door to door and you get your little sheet of talking points, you know, they say don't really talk too much and you want to kind of more listen and ask questions.
But you do want to get something like you killed all those kids in Maui with your fake morality in there before you start listening.
It's smart, it's smart.
You know, you're just real sly.
So was this before or after you killed all those kids in Maui with your fake morality?
At what point did you go to the store?
Oh, what?
I don't want to have killed all those kids in Maui.
Yes, I'll vote for Trump.
And it's like, got another one.
Got another one.
Got him.
Easy.
Got him.
Yeah, but this is a good strategy.
This is definitely the way they should go.
Okay, moving on from the memes to the discourse around this, I think a good place to start is with this screenshot from Chief Keef's Instagram.
Where he posted the blood edit, the Donald Trump doing the blood hand signal.
And then this is like a story, so not important enough for like an actual post, but in his stories.
And then he wrote over it, now my boy and that bitch banging dem folks.
Laughing, crying emoji, twisted laughing, crying emoji.
Welcome, welcome to the show, Chief Keef.
Just good, good start.
I know whatever deck he on, he good, in the hood for sure, he fittin' to run the prison, that boy fittin' to eat, he eatin', like a motherfucker, all the blacks fittin' to have my boy back.
Chain emoji.
Now this goes in line with a different ploy for the 2024 election, which is that now Donald Trump is punk.
Now Donald Trump is punk, he's rock and roll.
I think Candace Owen had the cutest tweet about this.
She said, I thought I would feel angered and despaired by the Trump mugshot.
Surprisingly, it's very rock and roll.
Sounds like something my stepmom would say, Candace.
It's pretty rock and roll.
It's a pretty rock and roll of my friend.
All the greats got Elvis, Johnny Cash, Mickey Blue Eyes, Elvis, and Johnny Cash all have mugshots.
You know, rock and roll, brother.
Yeah, Tupac.
Do you know what a vintage tea is?
- Biggest rock and roller ever.
- Feels like a vintage tee that I need.
Trump looks iconic.
- Do you know what a vintage tee is?
- Well, it feels like one, Tony, 'cause this is a timeless staple.
A cool guy going to prison.
- Yeah, it's true.
I do hope that people see this because hopefully this will be the end of vintage tees.
It won't, but it'd be cool if people just knew that vintage tees, like everything hype, is now lame and it's because of people like Candace Owens.
I love the idea of being like, on one hand, this is the start of a civil war, or this is like the start of a bloody retribution from the right wing, and we're going to like steamroll, bulldoze, and raze all your institutions to the ground.
But also, this is a frickin' rockin' vintage tee.
I could see buying this at Urban Outfitters.
Am I right, everybody?
Very funny.
Can we touch back on the Sosa post again real quick?
Because I do have a little something to say about that.
Well, yeah, I just wanted to go through all of it because they're all kind of saying the same thing.
Like Charlie Kirk, black men could win the 2024 election for Trump.
Or Laura Loomer, who said the black vote is going to come out strong for Donald Trump in 2024.
They just arrested Trump and booked him in the blackest jail in the state of Georgia on phony trumped up charges.
Is that really saying a lot?
The the blackest jail?
They have no idea what they're saying when they say that.
They're like, oh, no, that jail has a lot of black people in it.
It's like saying, oh, he went to the whitest Ivy League.
Yeah, it's like, there's a reason, there's some systematic stuff going on that made it that, but you can't think that hard.
He got to pick, no, they let him pick which jail he wanted to, and he said, as long as there's the blackest people in jail, I am one of them.
Yeah, he just said, take me where my people are at, you know?
Uh, Fannie Willis just made Donald Trump the most relatable man on the ballot for the black community.
It's Donald Trump versus the man who called black people super predators!
I think it was Hillary Clinton.
I don't know if Joe, I mean, Joe Biden's a racist, but I don't know if he said super predators.
Uh, hashtag Trump 2024.
Um, Dinesh D'Souza said something similar about how Trump, Trump's, uh, Dinesh D'Souza, in the urban black community, a mugshot can be an iconic symbol, both of victimization and of greatness.
It's a defiant up yours to quote the man.
Think Tupac Shakur.
Trump is now the ultimate gangsta in our culture.
Is everything about it, because I love that even he still uses he's like he still says the word victimization in this, which is like not The way that that would be, you know?
It's like, no one says, oh, we're being victimized.
No one says that.
This whole thing is just so gross because...
Yeah, every once in a while a mugshot will go around and people will think, but nobody loves mugshots more than white people.
White people love mugshots.
If you look up celebrity mugshot, just Google celebrity mugshot, I did it.
Celebrity mugshot.
These are the images you see right away.
Kiefer Sutherland.
Paris Hilton.
What's her name?
Lindsay Lohan.
Justin Bieber.
OJ Simpson, Bill Gates, like this is the white people love mugshots.
This is not a black thing.
You're just used to seeing black mugshots because you're always being shown black people being portrayed as criminals like it's all.
It's also it's also fucking.
They're being so racist.
Yeah, it's so racist.
It's extremely fucking racist.
Oh, he went to prison.
Oh, he's definitely the candidate for black people.
Yeah, Macaulay Culkin, Charlie Sheen.
It's all white people that they love.
Well, it's because Trump is doing what all those other mugshots are also doing, which is like flirting with subversion.
Flirting with being a rebel or an outlaw or whatever, which is, I got booked, they took a mugshot of me, and then let me go.
You know, it's not you doing, doing any actual time or, uh, you know, having any actual, uh, repercussions for your actions or anything like that, but you get, yeah, the clout, you get the cred of having a photo that symbolizes that you're, uh, you're somehow a threat or you're somehow based.
Yeah, and they don't see, they can't extrapolate, they can't go any further, because the libs are doing the same thing.
They're doing the same thing in the opposite direction.
They're like, yeah, but this mugshot is a thing.
This mugshot, I don't know if you knew this, but he's actually part witch, so this did take some of his soul away from him when the photo was taken.
They're thinking that's happening, and they're not thinking about the countless people who have mugshots taken of them, who either were convicted of something that they didn't do, ended up being innocent at the end anyways, but that mugshot is still going to be circulated and held against them.
Yeah, absolutely.
That's how the libs are seeing it, but the Republicans are seeing it as the opposite.
A regular person will be hunted by their mugshot.
Sure, yeah.
It would actually be a problem for other people.
But I do want to say, do not astral project into the Fulton County Prison in Georgia, because they are all Donald Trump fans.
They actually started a riot when they heard he got booked, not to get out or for prisoner's rights or anything.
They were just I'm so upset, so if you're a Kamala Harris stan, or if you have any visible RBG tattoos, do not astral project into the Fulton County Prison.
Don't do it.
Don't do it.
Okay, again, I do gotta push back on Sosa being in here.
Yeah.
Chief Keef being in here is not in the same conversation.
For sure, let me, sorry to interrupt.
The reason I have it here is because Dom Luker shared this shit.
Okay, yeah, because I think that Chief Keef is allowed to do this.
Chief Keef is allowed to make jokes at the expense of anybody in this case because Chief Keef is the byproduct of a system that has let down an entire community and has perpetuated the school-to-prison pipeline, the over-policing, and he is a victim.
He's the only person in this conversation that does get to get out here and be like, Oh, because he's the only one that's saying, oh, one of us.
Now he's saying one of us.
No one else is saying one of us.
Everyone is saying one of them.
Because now he's, because like, there is a thing where it's like, yeah, if you have, you know, if you have done time or, you know, done any type of sentence, or you have any bookings, it's like there is a bit of like a, Okay, so you have been through it.
You get to speak on things now.
You get to speak on the prison system more than other people do.
And so I'm going to let... Chief Keef gets to do whatever he wants here, and I'm not going to hold it against him because Chief Keef has never claimed to be any type of political anything.
This is just a joke to Chief Keef.
For sure, yeah.
For everyone else, it's more.
So I definitely want to... I've got to defend Sosa here.
Yeah, it does feel like a joke maybe from a pre-Donald Trump presidency era.
Like, it feels like a joke about, like, isn't it funny that this fucking real estate magnate, like, TV celebrity would go to prison and would be, you know, dapped up by everybody there.
Like, that's kind of what it feels like.
And because the thing is, yeah, you know, if if the guy if the guy from Home Alone is in the block next to you, you're probably going to it's probably going to be fun to you.
It's probably going to be funny to you.
You're probably going to like maybe razz him a little bit, you know, but what you get would like never happen.
So it's a funny idea to imagine in the in the first place, in the very first place.
Yeah, Rod Rehr kind of articulated this as well.
The punkest thing now will be to wear a t-shirt with this image on it.
I don't like Trump, but I want one simply to register my disgust with the ruling class Uh, somebody pointed out, but Trump is a billionaire former president.
Uh, would you say maybe he's the part of the ruling class?
Uh, and Rod replies, Trump is rich, but he is totally not the ruling class.
It's about culture.
That's one thing I've always said is that the class is about culture.
Yeah.
The president is not about, about, you know, cause I think GW was a blue collar man.
GW is a great example.
He's not, he's not a ruling class, you know?
Beautiful.
Yeah, I mean, like, we know Donald Trump doesn't drink Bud Light, so... I think it's safe to say he's not a member of the ruling class.
Yeah, pretty easy, pretty easy.
Yeah, um... Other things they're fucking doing?
Turning Point?
They posted a photo... What if the Democrats had mugshots?
And they posted a nine by nine grid of like Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton and Stacey Abrams all being booked at the Fulton County Sheriff's Office.
Cool.
That would that would be epic if that happened.
But instead, it was our guy.
And it's funny because, again, we don't necessarily disagree with this.
There should absolutely be an Obama and a Joe Biden and a Kamala Harris mugshot.
We're not disagreeing with this at all.
Sure.
Shut up, you know?
Alright, we gotta move on now.
Enough about this mugshot.
But yeah, funny, deranged stuff.
I'll just say that.
Trump is definitely gonna win the black vote.
If there's one thing I'm positive about, it's that.
I mean as long as they don't steal it from him.
God, that take is out there somewhere.
Like, we need the black vote because black people steal things.
And we need to help steal the vote.
You know that take is out there somewhere.
Yeah, or they could do it with like, you know what, I'm as anti-Semitic as the next guy, but we need some of that craftiness.
We need some of that underhanded... Imagine, you know, I know the Jews are normally greedy for money.
What if we could make them greedy for votes?
All right, next on our docket today... next on our docket today...
There's another lockdown coming, Tony?
I mean, I barely got over being locked down the last time.
During COVID, do you remember how there weren't any restaurants open or stores open and you couldn't leave your house or talk to anybody or anything like that?
They're going to fucking do it again.
Did you hear about this?
Son of a bitch.
I can't believe this.
Yeah, they can't take that out of me.
I need if I don't get to go to Trader Joe's in Target three times a week.
I'm not a person anymore.
I think you'll still be able to go to Trader Joe's and Target just like you were during lockdown.
Yeah, yeah.
This is from the Gateway Pundit, and this has a lot of people fairly upset.
Biden regime to reinstate COVID-19 restrictions beginning with mask mandate as quote COVID cases rise, say TSA and Border Patrol whistleblowers.
Mm hmm.
OK, so let's let's read through here.
The Biden regime is preparing to reinstate full COVID-19 lockdowns, beginning with masking mandates for TSA and airport employees reportedly as early as mid-September, InfoWars first to report.
Um, yeah, that's one thing I, I, I really remember, or like I identify with a lockdown.
If you tell me, Oh, this country's going on lockdown.
It's like, well, what does that mean?
Oh, it means you can still fly and do everything normal, except they might ask you to wear a mask.
Yeah.
I mean, no, you see, are you really doing it if you're not doing it freely?
Yeah, I can't even keep my mind on the flight.
I want to sit there and enjoy the flight, you know?
Be in the moment.
And I can't do that if I have a piece of fabric rubbing up against my lips and mustache.
So this is from InfoWars.
This is where they Alex Jones's InfoWars is where they sourced this bombshell breaking news.
A high level TSA official reached out to InfoWars detailing a Tuesday meeting where TSA managers were informed of new memorandums and policies that would reimplement mask wearing.
These policies will reinstate the mask mandate for TSA and airport employees starting in mid-September.
According to the TSA official, further details on how the policy will escalate will be provided next week.
The official added that by mid-October, mask wearing will be mandated for pilots, flight staff, passengers, and all airport patrons.
Following this disclosure from the TSA official, InfoWars reached out to a trusted Border Patrol source, also in a managerial position.
This source corroborated the directives, confirming that similar messages were being planned for Border Patrol personnel.
They were told it was not a matter of if, but when official COVID numbers will go back up, and they expect by mid-Aug- Are we, like, not even tracking this shit anymore?
I don't think we are, because I'm not seeing, like, actual numbers.
I'm just hearing of, like, lots of people I know getting sick.
Yeah, I I've definitely heard and read that.
Yes, infections are rising, but there's no like we dismantled every anything that we put together to like combat and track and try and help.
What do you call it?
Like lessen the effects of covid just gone like like we're not even wearing masks in the hospitals that I deliver to anymore.
I don't.
Like, call me a cynic, I don't think that stuff's coming back.
I don't think they're going to try and do it again.
If they are, they also need to bring back the terrorist threat level charts.
Yeah.
Because I think that also needs to go up if the masks are coming back.
So we need to bring back both those things so people know, especially for things like flying, if we're going to really be making people put masks back on, something awful is going to happen.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that health experts are now sounding the alarm on a new COVID variant.
Wow, talk about an alarm.
I'm getting red flags whenever I hear about experts warning about a disease.
I have a siren going off in my head.
I have a terror threat alert going off in my head.
The World Health Organization classified the EG.5 coronavirus strain circulating in the United States and China as a, quote, variant of interest, but stressed it did not seem to pose more of a threat to public health than other variants.
I love like the World Health Organization, supposedly like the organization that's there to like implement a totalitarian one one world government regime is telling you to your face, not really a big deal.
We don't we don't care if you die or whatever.
And you're still freaking yourselves out about it.
No, the wording is actually kind of important.
They're like, this new variant, it's not any more dangerous than the other variants.
Yeah, exactly.
Which are pretty bad.
Like, you don't have to, if you haven't changed shit, don't change shit.
We're not gonna, don't do it for this one.
It's fine.
You were already doing it for the last one, don't do it for this one.
On Thursday, WHO made a formal announcement on Thursday, oh my god.
On Thursday, WHO made a formal announcement on Thursday categorizing the BA 2.886 variant, a highly mutated variant, as a quote, variant under monitoring.
This designation represents the lowest of three threat levels of alerts set by the global health body.
And you guys are ripping your hair out about it.
I think that that sentence being there is a symptom of, like, these websites using, like, chat GPT to write articles now and not reading them.
Could be.
Not editing them.
And then look at this!
Among all current variants, only Omicron retains the classification of, quote, a variant of concern, which is the WHO's most urgent level of alert, according to Fortune.
So there's already A variant that the WHO has listed as the worst possible, like our understanding of this and the level of mitigation we should be putting towards this is already at the highest level, which is that we say it's concerning.
That's the highest level of alert, is we say.
Oh, hey, this is concerning.
And that's it.
Literally no, like, enforcement.
Literally not even, like, recommendations that I can see.
But under here, the media is now pushing for another lockdown.
Another fear porn from the so-called... I'm so... I have such a fucking fear boner from hearing about a variant of concern.
That's definitely got my reptilian brain into overdrive.
The same old media playbook.
Responses to this stuff have been amazing.
Uh, did you see this video of Tim Pool's co-host?
No.
No.
Oh, I hate this guy.
Uh, he sucks ass.
His name's Ian something.
Uh, he's also like a huge anti-Semite.
He's, um, said on camera that Jews who aren't Religious aren't real Jews like he's not Jewish as far as I can tell I think he's like a psychotic born-again Christian One of these like personal personality lists dweebs latching on to like traditional values as as a way to be cool
Insane to me, but yeah, he basically called like Jews who aren't Religious as like subversive and you know the all the same tropes that like, you know, Nazi Germany said about Jews Is he the same guy that that because I know one of the the people on his on his crew One of the co-host is this the same guy who's also a groomer.
I Like an actual groomer?
I don't, I don't know.
Could be.
Yeah.
I think this is him.
There's a, there's a couple women who have been like, Oh yeah, I was 16 when he was trying to talk to me when he was talking to me.
That type, that type beat.
Not surprised.
Um, if you can find out any actual, you know, any reporting on that, uh, while I play this video, that would be cool.
But, um, yeah, here, here is Ian from Timcast.
That is the recipe to destroy your country, is to shut it down.
Don't do that again.
And don't make people put fucking dirty masks on!
Nice.
I'm sick of it, man.
I'm fucking sick of it!
I will not do it again!
So you can't see it, but he goes to say something else after, I will not do it again!
And then just like locks up.
Like his whole system locks because he's so mad.
And then he puts his fist into his mouth.
It's amazing.
He's beside himself.
He's never been this mad.
Ever.
And this is the problem with theater kids.
If we don't watch them, they become this.
Nice.
I'm sick of it, man!
I'm fucking sick of it!
I will not do it again!
What are you going to say, bro?
Yeah.
Was he going to say something illegal?
Yeah.
I will not put the dirty mask on.
I won't do it.
The dirty mask, man.
That's yeah.
Somebody responded.
Why are the masks dirty?
Yeah.
And Myth Informed, which is one of the outlets that posted this video, says masks are by definition dirty.
They get gross as the day goes on.
No more masks.
And then Thomas replies, you can change them as the day goes on, they're not expensive.
Then MythInformed also replies, will, period, NOT, period, comply, period.
And this is a meme now.
I don't know, if you've been on Facebook, You will have seen the word art of the black background that says, the black background with white text that says, whatever happens next, DO NOT COMPLY!
Uh, we have Democrats are communist memes posted this 3000 likes.
I am James, the thinking contractor, uh, posted.
He tried to do his own variation on it because everybody else is whatever happens next.
Do not comply.
Whatever happens next.
Do not comply.
Um, James, the thinking contractor did his own that says no matter what they do or say next, do not comply.
See, this is why it's so important that you need to be paying attention to Million Death Cult.
Even if you're not with us, you need to understand what your people are trying to do, and you need to be on board with them.
It's a real miss by doing all caps here.
The point is not made here.
It's a shame.
My favorite one is probably...
From Conservative Cops, Facebook page Conservative Cops posted, whatever happens next, DO NOT COMPLY!
What if I'm being told to get out of my car with my hands up?
Yeah.
That's the first thing I thought of when I saw this.
Man, how nice is it to be able to publicly state that you're going to not comply with whatever happens next?
They're like, whoa, we didn't even bother.
We just shot him because we saw this meme and we knew he wasn't going to listen.
He posted it with the caps.
We knew it.
He said it with his whole chest.
This meme being posted by conservative cops really does seem like a way to maybe get some sort of quota up, or like maybe there's a few of their friends in the LA Sheriff's Department who haven't been able to join the gang yet, so they're trying to get some subjects out there, get some people out there in the right headspace to provide service for those folks.
Well what's scary is they're probably just talking to other cops.
Yeah.
Like when they tell you to stop assaulting people, do not comply.
Anarchist Beauties posted a Spongebob meme and it's Patrick writing on a to-do list and on the to-do list it says, do not comply.
I love that.
And it's funny because this is Ernest, but I don't know much about SpongeBob.
It didn't hit me.
Um, Patrick is the smartest character.
He's the smartest, most sensible character.
Okay.
I was going to say the opposite, but I think that just shows my ignorance towards SpongeBob.
Yeah.
He's, he's known as like kind of a, uh, what do you call it?
Like a, a pillar of the community of the bikini bottom community.
I just, to-do list, do not comply, like, okay, should you remove the do?
Should it be to-do list and then it should just be not comply?
Like that would be funnier?
It would be briefer, it would have more economy to it.
You would have to actually be a little bit funny and not just like a meme recycler.
Cause it's just you got two Ds on it.
I do love when people are given a format, they just fill in the blanks and they can't do that correctly.
Yeah.
Love it.
You know what I mean?
Back to the dirty mask.
Masks are by definition dirty.
Are you saying that masks filter unwanted particulates and things from getting into your mouth?
Is that what you're saying?
Why are the masks dirty?
How do they get dirty?
We don't know.
We just know that they're gross and I don't want it on my face.
Did anybody say like they're dirty because they're made in China?
No, nobody said that yet.
See, they can't even do that because I think that would almost be a way to go.
RandomSwervy responded to Ian's video screaming, screeching about wearing, having to wear a mask.
RandomSwervy replies, Yep, that's what's up.
I'm past that.
I'm at a peaceful anger now.
I identify as a threat.
My pronouns are try slash me.
Didn't really comply the first time, but this time haha.
Man.
So, I didn't comply the first time because nobody ever made me.
There wasn't an actual authoritarian presence or any sort of like sophisticated apparatus or infrastructure to actually protect other people from my sociopathy.
But this time, when they suggested to me, I'm going to murder them.
I know I won't have to comply, but I'm so mad about the time I didn't have to comply before that things this time, they're not going to be great.
It's not my fault if you voluntarily went into a store that had a sign that said mask mandated.
Yeah.
If you go into that store, if you're wearing a mask, that's not my fault.
What happens next?
Yeah.
Um, I wanted to, we're going to, we're going to sort of wind the episode down, but I did want to go, cause there's like a broader conversation to be had about people freaking out about these mask mandates.
And I saw some very interesting comments in the comment section of this, uh, what was it?
Uh, Gateway Pundit article that I read.
Um, So this is yeah, Oklahoma lady says, used COVID masks tossed on the street and not in hazmat containers was the first clue that this wasn't about COVID.
Similarly, an account called First Amendment Writes, if COVID was so dangerous, it would have wiped out the homeless camps, no health care, no sanitation, poor diet, poor health, rampant drug use, dirty needles, exposure to the elements, no mask.
And these two furious, these two comments really like, I mean, they're clearly awful.
Well, at least the first amendment, it's clearly like an awful person.
They're clearly like not aligned with us politically.
But they raise good point.
Like, honestly, like if you're just a member of the public, they raise good points.
If COVID was such a big deal, how come there was no like apparatus for us to dispose of hazardous COVID materials?
How come nobody was paying attention to where I threw my mask?
It obviously wasn't serious because nobody took it seriously.
Same thing.
I threw my mask on, on house people and they didn't die.
Same thing with this comment about homeless people.
The only reason you think that COVID didn't have an effect on homeless people is because nobody cares enough about homeless people to actually track or document.
California didn't even count its unsheltered homeless population in 2021.
Yeah, exactly.
2021.
Like, yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
It's understandable to a certain degree for people to look at a half-assed response to COVID, which is what this country did, and come to the conclusion that it's not really a big threat.
Because if it were a big threat, our government, well, it's their job to protect us from these threats.
Instead of coming to the conclusion that The government is run by private industry and capital who did not want to spend any money on protecting us, who did not want to develop infrastructure, who did not want to have masks on hand in the event of a super spreader event or a, you know, a pandemic event, and who wanted us to get back to work as soon as possible.
You can be forgiven, I suppose, for interpreting that as, oh, COVID wasn't an actual threat.
And this is why.
Yeah, absolutely.
This is why, or at least an example of how liberalism, liberal capitalism leads to fascism.
Because half-assed responses to like the homeless problem, half-assed, I hate saying the homelessness problem, the lackluster response to these actual dangerous like cultural phenomena or biological phenomenon.
You leave a wide open, you leave yourself wide open for criticism from the right, from people who want to be even like more sadistic about this stuff, who want to care even less because it's like...
Look, we did the biggest national response to any event in my lifetime.
Absolutely, yeah.
When else did America have a national program to address something like this in our lifetimes.
And it didn't matter.
People still died.
Whoever's going to die is going to die.
Whoever's going to live is going to live.
And there was just a bunch of grift in the center of it with like PPP loans.
And look at California, the leftist state of the nation, the most communist state in this country.
Look at all the money they have going to like non-profits for homelessness and for housing people there.
And they still have the highest homeless population, right?
You just got to go the full route of housing people.
That's the only way to do any of this.
The last Miles Miller response to First Amendment, who says, if COVID was so dangerous, it would have wiped out the homeless camps.
Miles Miller responds, you are brighter than all medical institutions.
This is then you were brighter than all medical institutions, students and all licensed physicians.
So I thought here he was like being sarcastic, you know, but then he keeps going.
How did you do it?
Oh, I get it.
You are normal, raised right and are honest.
We cannot have you around.
Just again, that narrative of, like, we don't know, we have no idea how many on-house people died from COVID.
Yeah.
Because we don't know, they don't realize how many on-house people die from exposure, period.
Yeah.
I know for a fact that people died during this little, this hurricane that happened in Southern California.
I know for a fact that on-house people died Um, but there will be no reporting of it, there will be no documentation of it, there will be no data behind it.
Um, because they don't care about it, period.
Like, this is, I, I, this argument is so awful.
Like, if, if that's the argument you're gonna take, then yeah, you can take it one step further.
How about we care about them at all?
Yeah.
COVID or not.
I love the idea that how, how did you, how did you come to be smarter than all medical institutions, students and licensed physicians?
Oh yeah.
Your dad hit you with a switch.
Yeah.
Beat some sense that you were raised normal.
Remember that one time you wore a dress when you were eight, eight years old and playing around?
I bet you remember that because your dad didn't stand for it.
And that's why, that's why you've been able to see through, uh, see through all the, the medical propaganda.
And that's why you now have a trauma response to things like that, to where you just must fall in line, as long as it resembles what your dad would be saying, and your dad just happens to be an awful person.
So that's why you're here now.
Yeah, but do not comply, whatever you do, folks.
