The liberals are destroying California.
And conservative humor gone awry is going to fascist-fornia 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.
But stay tuned, guys.
We'll show you exactly what it looks like when you're in the middle of the storm begins.
Follow their rebar in the full step.
Stay tuned.
Alright, I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
And we are Minion Death Cult.
The world is ending.
Keir Starmer joining Hamas is responsible.
And we're documenting it.
What's up everybody?
Welcome to your midweek episode of Minion Death Cult.
Thank you so much for supporting the show.
We have a wonderful one for you today.
Tony, did you hear about the violent anti-Christian pogrom that happened in Seattle this last week?
I've heard murmurs of it.
Yeah, it's scary stuff.
I'm excited to hear the details from someone you know who's on the ground out there.
Oh, yeah.
No, I was on the ground, but I was committing the pogrom, so I'm maybe not the most unbiased source to get information from.
So instead, I'm going to be reading here.
From ChristianBroadcastingNetwork.com, CBN.com.
Nice, nice.
FBI investigating Seattle after mayor blamed Christians for violent rioters who attacked them.
This is Talia Wise.
So, there was a protest that happened.
There was a demonstration by this very right-wing reactionary, sort of like evangelical.
Christian group, and there was a massive counter-protest that completely dwarfed the original protest, or the original demonstration, which was held in a LGBTQ kind of queer area of Seattle, very famous for being gay-friendly.
Area of Seattle, you know, most of Seattle is pretty friendly, but this is specifically, like, a gay neighborhood in Cap Hill.
And, you know, the protest, the, like, counter-protest, the protesters were protesting against, like, what they perceived as, like, you know, fascist, right-wing Christianity, you know, sort of anti-LGBTQ, anti-trans, which, of course, it was.
But some of the headlines that I was reading, I think, was conflating, like, the protesters' message with the message of the Seattle mayor, who's, like, a centrist Democrat.
And so I thought, like, everybody was really mad at him.
And I thought, just from, like, context and from seeing headlines and stuff, that he actually called them fascists.
But no, no such luck.
So let me read here from CBN.
The FBI is investigating the city of Seattle after the mayor pointed the finger of blame at a group of Christians who were assaulted by rioters while participating in a worship and prayer rally.
News of the violent counter protest has gone viral, even sparking response at the White House.
As CBN News has reported, the grassroots movement, hashtag don't mess with our kids, gathers thousands of believers together in every state to pray for a move of God to protect America's children and turn around the U.S. education system.
There's nothing I love more than bringing my kids to the gay neighborhood and be like, hey, don't mess with my kids.
Here they are.
Don't mess with them.
Don't even fucking look at them, you freaks.
Here they are.
It's like they're just going to play themselves.
Their kids are going to be like, I don't know, man.
They seem pretty chill and you're pretty mad.
That seems like a pretty cool life over there.
Maybe I am more open-minded than I thought.
Mom, I want to go into Doghouse Leathers.
What's that?
As CBN News has reported, yeah, the grassroots movement.
I'm so fucking sure it's a grassroots movement.
Absolutely.
The organization kicked off Mayday USA at the beginning of the month to bring the major prayer movement and evangelism outreach to five cities in the U.S. and to see the, quote, sacredness of gender and family as defined by God restored.
Yeah, absolutely.
I do believe in the sanctity and the sacredness of my maleness, 100%.
Porn addiction is a sacred right that all men should have and hold.
Nothing says that you love and support your family like appropriating the day that is actually meant to...
Make it so you can support and have a nice family home.
So true.
Appropriating that and letting them know.
No, prayers over paychecks, baby.
Everyone knows that.
Yeah, I love gender as defined by God.
Remember that verse.
Blue jeans, definitely in the Bible.
Dresses in the Bible.
Yep, yep, absolutely.
One of those cities was Seattle, Washington.
We came to worship and pray, but also to stand up for children and families to say as a church family, don't mess with our kids.
Bunny Pounds, the president and founder of Christians Engaged, shared.
No, that's not someone's real name.
It's B-U-N-N-I, Bunny Pounds.
You're not allowed to talk.
I guess they probably really hate porn.
Bunny Pounce probably really hates porn because of their name.
From the start, organizers faced opposition for wanting to gather peacefully and pray at the Seattle event, which was scheduled on May 24th.
Organizers from Mayday USA told Como News they initially sought to hold the event at Pike Place Market, with the city denied that permit and redirected the group to Cal Anderson Park, an area with, quote, the most prominent gay neighborhood.
I love the idea of doing it at Pike Place.
Like getting hit with a flying fish while trying to protect your children.
Yeah, that would be awesome.
What are you fucking talking about?
Seattle is pretty much like, no, that's going to be too many people.
That place is already busy enough.
We don't need people there.
Take it somewhere else.
These handmade leather belts of the devil.
The ceramic stamped little dish that says Seattle in it, this is the debauchery we're fighting against.
Yeah.
You see these t-shirts?
You see these t-shirts that say Seattle on them?
Not cool.
Not cool.
That's the gateway.
I guess they do have a few Rainbow One options, so...
This is child's flesh.
Don't try to sell me what I know is cannibalism.
You know, this is not only the first site of the first Starbucks, but this is also the first time where sodomy happened on American soil.
Also in Pike's Place.
Yeah, third place, they're talking about the butthole.
That's the only reason they had to build the city over the city, because too much sodomy was happening down there.
And I love this.
Okay, so this is the reporting here.
The city denied that permit and redirected the group to Cal Anderson Park, an area with the most prominent gay neighborhood.
Okay, so this is their defense because one of the biggest, like, I don't know, one of the biggest conflicts that people of Seattle had with this is you're coming to a gay neighborhood to do this shit.
You're coming to Cal Anderson Park and you're coming to, like, a gay neighborhood and a gay area of the city.
To preach this hateful shit about how, you know, whatever, being gay is a threat to our children and you're a child predator if you're a queer person or whatever.
So their defense is, the city directed us to this park.
And the thing is, is like, Seattle has dozens of parks that you can protest in.
I guarantee you Seattle did not say, you have to go to Cal Anderson Park in the gay neighborhood to hold this event.
They probably just gave them a list of actual parks where they could go rather than a fucking fish market.
Rather than a pier.
No, you can't hold your protest at a pier.
What are you talking about?
And so they're pretending that the city set them up for counter-protesting by having it In specifically Cal Anderson Park.
In response to the rally, numerous rioters set up in the park at the same time, including the, quote, radical women Seattle group, which told the local news affiliate that they were there to protest, quote, fascist family values.
So that's like the quote I kept hearing in reporting about this, and I was hoping that the mayor called these Christians fascists.
That would have been so funny.
That would have been awesome, yeah.
But apparently it didn't happen.
He called them far right, but he didn't use the other F word, which I'm ashamed.
I will not vote for you, Bruce Harrell, next time because of that.
Say it with your chest, bro.
Quote, the rally is aimed to counter the well-funded anti-trans, anti-queer event that is led by far-right Christian activists.
The Mayday USA rally in Seattle is provocatively being held in the heart of the queer community, a spokesperson for Radical Women Seattle claimed before the rally.
In a column for Charisma News, Pounds described what took place that day.
quote, "Many hundreds of protesters arrived.
I estimated from my vantage point to be 500 to 1000 that lined up, that lined our permitted area with signs, bullhorns, extended fingers and vulgar shouts.
It included Antifa that showed up among the crowd heckling all day in a pro-trans support protest hurriedly planned on social media in response to Mayday organized by Jenny and Bob Donnelly, her voice MVMT." Well done.
I love how just at a moment's notice, At least a thousand people were ready to hit the park in support of gay and trans people.
And that rules.
Imagine what we could accomplish if we had a little more time to organize.
It kind of makes you think about things.
This is actually a wonderful story.
It's really great that they're posting their own L's.
We were just shocked and horrified to see how owned we were.
This is not the Seattle that we visit once every two years to cause problems.
And they weren't shouting vulgarities.
They were just shouting the things the Bible tells them to, you know?
Like, you know, F slurs burn in hell and stuff like that.
They were reclaiming them?
No, no, no.
I'm saying that's what the original protesters were doing.
And they were claiming the counter-protesters were being vulgar.
But the Christians were not being vulgar.
They were just spreading the gospel.
No, they were just saying that gay people and trans people don't have a right to exist.
Yeah, it's not the same.
Hardly sounds vulgar to me.
According to the Seattle Police Department, authorities work to get the two groups apart, but quote, multiple people inside one group throw items at the opposing group around 1.30 p.m.
Saturday.
Quote, officers immediately moved to arrest the people responsible and while taking the individuals into custody were assaulted by more protesters, resulting in even more arrests.
In total, officers arrested 11 during the initial scuffle.
Yeah, I think there were like 23 total arrests or something like that.
Sergeant Patrick Michaud explained.
Both officers immediately moved to arrest the people responsible and while...
I just read this.
What?
The quote here is here twice.
The quote's there and then the quote without quotes is there.
No, the whole thing's just there twice.
Okay.
I thought I was going crazy.
One's hyperlinked.
has a hyperlink to explained okay authorities made 12 additional arrests throughout the afternoon for obstruction and assault one officer was injured in total police arrested 22 individuals for charges of assault and obstruction seattle mayor bruce harrell is later issued a statement suggesting the group of christians Yeah, why were they there?
They shouldn't have been there.
Exactly.
Seattle is proud of our reputation as a welcoming, inclusive city for LGBTQ plus communities and we stand with our trans neighbors when they face bigotry and injustice.
Today's far-right rally was held here for this very reason, to provoke a reaction by promoting beliefs that are inherently opposed to our city's values.
In the heart of Seattle's most prominent LGBTQ plus neighborhood, he said in a statement.
And then he goes on to denounce the anarchists that supposedly infiltrated the counter-protesters and inspired violence.
Yada, yada, yada.
And then it whines some more about other people who don't like them, but maybe that's all I need to read from this article.
You know, I guess it's, you know, Bruce Harrell is like a centrist corporate Democrat, but, you know, it's good at least to vocally support trans people.
And it's even better for the actual people of the city to come out and support trans people and gay people.
And it's very funny to see reactionary right wing religious groups like this who do nothing but post online about how scary and what a hellhole Seattle is and how they would never visit Seattle in a million years.
And they used to love it.
And now they don't.
Yada, yada, yada.
Come to Seattle and pretend like they care about the city and pretend like they are part of the city instead of like.
And it also proves that they say it's things like, listen, I don't care, but just don't do it in front of my kids.
Just don't put it in my face.
Because like, no, this is a gay neighborhood.
This is where you go to, you know, They're doing it in their own community.
And now you're coming there.
You are saying, I don't even care if you're doing it in your own area.
I don't want it happening at all.
So it is like really...
Totally.
And when you say doing it publicly, you mean hanging pride flags?
Exactly.
Holding hands in public and stuff like that.
Existing in public.
Yeah, you're going to see that in Cap Hill in Seattle.
Let me get some responses here because they're pretty good.
So this is one of the preachers.
Russell Johnson from this church that planned this.
And he's a bit of a stinker.
He's a bit of a personality here.
He posted on Twitter a meme and says, you can just do things.
And the meme is like, it's got fucking impact font on it.
Jesus Christ.
It's two photos.
The top photo is like Seattle counter protesters.
Who he's calling Antifa.
And he put impact font over it.
It says, Antifa, quote, what are you doing here?
So that's like Antifa asking him, what are you doing here?
And then he put his own photo in the meme and said, Pastor Russell, quote, it's Tuesday, dot, dot, dot.
And the photo of him is so heinous.
And so off-putting, I'm staggered that he included it.
Yeah.
He looks like a ghoul.
He's a young man, maybe 20-something, maybe 30, with just a gaunt, stretched face, these very odd, flamboyant...
They're like aviator-shaped lenses, but they're gold.
And the arms on them are like elaborate two-armed arms with a little pendant in the center.
It's like he's trying to do an update on the 1970s evangelical old Christian lady.
Televangelist.
Well, unfortunately, so what these are, these are kind of like a designer, aviator, kind of like a Cartier-looking aviator that are very hip and very in the fashion.
A lot of rappers are wearing these.
It's very popular frame style, and that's how you know that he's a pastor, because he's also like a hype beast.
Yes.
And that's how you know he's an actual pastor.
They're very ostentatious, flashy glasses.
Yeah, I would love to see what, if he's wearing, he's probably wearing like off-white Jordan 1s.
Wait for me to, I have a full body pic of him that Ani sent me.
But he's also wearing a fake MAGA hat that says make prayer great again instead of make America great again.
But it's, you know, red with the white text or whatever.
And just this joke, like I don't understand this.
Antifa, what are you doing here?
Pastor Russell, it's Tuesday.
Do you normally hold service on Tuesday?
Do you normally come to Seattle on Tuesday?
I know what you're trying to say with the caption.
If the caption wasn't here, this would be totally mystifying.
But his caption saying you can just do things implies that since it's a day of the week, I can do whatever I want.
So I came to Seattle to antagonize you guys like that's that's the.
Aren't you a preacher?
This is dog shit.
And not to really get in the mud here, but he's saying something in the picture.
His mouth is doing something.
Yeah, he's at like a press conference or like microphones.
And his mouth is in a shape that is just...
He's making an O sound with his mouth.
Your mouth never makes that shape in It's Tuesday.
You would have been better off just doing a picture of you not talking, but that's just me really getting in the mud here.
Well, I think it's okay to focus on the face because it's the face that he willingly put in here, but the face, it looks like he's going, dude.
There's no nice way to put it.
This is a photo Ani sent me of him.
Oh, fuck.
It was worse than I thought.
I think this is the same guy.
Yeah, this is worse than I thought.
He's a tall guy, a tall white guy, wearing the skinniest skinny jeans you've ever seen.
Like these skinny jeans wouldn't fit on like a normal non emaciated person because they're so skinny.
And then he's wearing like black.
It's a Chelsea boot.
It's worse than a Hypebeast boot shoe.
It's a Chelsea boot.
It's got a zipper on the inside, but it is like a snake skin.
It's supposed to be kind of cowboy-ish.
It has the metal tip on the toe and stuff.
Man, the fit sucks.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, that's a good way to describe it.
He looks like a clown, man.
I don't know.
This is what attracts young men?
It's a bit unfortunate.
More from his Twitter presence, Russell B. Johnson's Twitter presence, he tweeted out, in reaction to Mayor Bruce Harrell, I can't decide if my new billboard near Seattle City Hall should feature the at mayor of Seattle pointing a gun at a woman who is eight months pregnant or him sexually harassing his employees.
Help me pick.
And he's included two AI images that he had generated side by side.
And the first one is like somebody who kind of looks like Bruce Harrell but whose eyes are all fucked up.
Whose eyes kind of look like mouths.
Pointing a gun at the chest of, yeah, a pregnant woman.
It's an awesome billboard.
I think you should get this billboard made.
This would look so good for you.
It's a picture of a billboard, by the way.
It's a picture of a billboard, not just what would be on the billboard, but I want the picture of the billboard on the billboard.
Yeah, and I want the picture on the billboard also to match up with the background buildings and sky that are behind the billboard, just like in this AI image.
So apparently, like Bruce Harrell, allegedly there was some reporting that he did pull a gun on a woman in a dispute over a parking space years and years ago.
So this billboard is accurate, Tony.
So I do think that Pastor Russell, Should put a billboard of this guy, of him, an AI amalgamation of somebody who kind of looks like the mayor of Seattle pointing a gun right at a woman who's not really making eye contact with him.
Man, I thought this was just like an anti-abortion thing.
Me too.
Yeah.
I didn't realize there was actual context for it.
No, it's even cooler.
It's even cooler than being pro-abortion, getting into violent disputes over parking spaces.
And then here's the other one.
It's Bruce Harrell with a thought bubble, but the thought bubble's coming out of his lapel, so like below his head.
That's coming out of his heart, is where it's coming out of.
And the thought bubble reads, I'd do her.
What?
Did he do this?
Is he like...
Out of his neck.
His neck was thinking I would do her.
You can't think about how you'd do her.
You can't do that, brother.
Like, this isn't even sexual harassment.
Listen, talk about the thought police here.
I'm not allowed to think I would do her?
Send me to jail, brother.
See, the problem here is that the thought bubble is actually a costume prop that he attached to himself.
It's like a floating actual physical bubble that says it.
So yes, that is actually...
You can't do that, bro.
But I just, I love these right-wing influencers.
What if I faked a photo of the mayor pointing a gun at a woman and made a billboard of it?
That would be so frickin' epic, right, everybody?
AI has enabled the worst jokes.
Yeah.
Just the weakest jokes.
Jokes that are so bad that the people who created them wouldn't even spend the time to, like, Photoshop them themselves without AI.
Yeah, no way.
And so, yeah, he asks, which one should I do?
Help me pick.
And the answers were just, the gun.
The gun.
Lost in Washington says, gun, for sure.
Seafora says, the gun.
So many people were just responding, gun, gun.
Yep, yep.
And they're right.
They're right.
It is the more effective one, if you ask me.
It's more eye-grabbing, for sure, yeah.
Lynn, however, had a problem with this post.
Lynn says, okay, you lost me.
Not very Christian-like.
Lee Conjure replies, what do you want pastor to do?
The pastor and his flock were purposely set up for violence and then blamed for said violence.
If Christians never picked up their sword, there wouldn't be Christianity!
Yep.
Yep, that's so real.
Picking up their sword, buying a billboard, buying a troll billboard is the same as picking up a sword.
And they had to do it.
They're really back into a corner here.
Yeah, typing some words into AI, into fucking Grok or ChatGPT or whatever, is the modern version of the Crusades.
that is 100% accurate.
I remember when Jesus Christ said, you know, if somebody wrongs you, um, Yeah, falsify an image of them doing something nasty.
R.O. Thornhill offers a different suggestion of a billboard.
R.O. says, I say a picture of him dressed as Pilate whipping Christ, carrying the cross in the name of the Roman Empire is more appropriate.
Yeah.
I don't think I've heard anything more appropriate than that.
Absolutely.
I think that what happened to these Christians was very similar to the crucifixion of Christ.
And I think that's just what people want to see.
It's true.
I mean, think about it.
The Jesus movie did really well in theaters.
They do want to see it.
Yeah, it's just, you know, that's going to get, I think, the best reaction is to have Mayor Harrell in a Roman garb whipping Christ.
100% people will take that very seriously and will be swayed to your side.
I think maybe you could go further.
Like you could have him driving the spear into Christ's side, or maybe you could have him like, There's a lot of stuff you could do.
Well, I mean, what we saw with AI, you could really do anything.
You could actually just have a picture of the mayor sexually assaulting Jesus.
Have you thought about doing that?
I mean, that would also work.
I'd do him.
Have him pointing the gun at Jesus while thinking, I'd do him.
And actually doing Jesus at gunpoint.
AI, we can do anything.
People did say, combine them.
People did really say that.
So like pointing a gun at the pregnant woman saying, I'd do her.
But then it just sounds like you're going to do her like you're going to kill her.
Like a hitman.
Oh, that's true, yeah.
Field of Dreams commented, has a different idea.
I'd put him up as biracial.
That way, he can't claim one side or the other to fit his needs.
Actually, that's not how it works at all, my friend.
It's quite the opposite.
You get to claim one side or the other as you need.
That's not true.
I've never been in a situation with the police where I'm like, no, no, my mom's white!
My mom's white!
They're like, okay, cool, you're good, never mind.
I love, this is like, it's such like, old-timey racism, it's just like...
That way they all know he's a freak.
Is he biracial?
Is he like...
I think so.
I think he's like half black or something.
I don't really care.
I care about his ideas, Tony.
I mean, I've never seen him at the meeting, so I don't know if he is.
Yeah, he looks Filipino or something.
He's something, you know?
He is something.
That way, he can't claim allegiance to anybody.
If he's biracial, he's a traitor to everybody.
And how do you illustrate that on a billboard?
Well, you do bi equals two.
Racial equals race.
Boom, boom.
Racial equals bad.
It's like you just put two different...
Yeah, you could have the stereotypes.
He gets his sushi at 7-Eleven because he's half Japanese and half Indian or whatever, but you do it for whatever races he is.
What you do is you just Photoshop him into a Logic album cover.
They'll get that one right away.
Yeah, Seattle will get that one.
I smear him as biracial.
Maybe they think it means bisexual.
Maybe they got it confused.
I mean, it often happens.
More responses to this from New York Post.
Responses to the actual counter-protest and the protest action.
Cat14man, this was the top comment.
It's got 382 upvotes.
So let me get this straight.
These counter-protesters lay claim to a piece of land or an area in the city that literally belongs to everyone.
This same group of people continually complain that society needs to be more tolerant of them in schools, jobs, and public spaces, which I believe is mostly accommodated.
Then they also have a whole month that they get to celebrate themselves, but none of that is good enough, so they go after other people who have different beliefs.
I love the idea that they get to have a whole month to celebrate.
They just do it.
They don't get to do it.
It's not like the government gives them permission to celebrate pride.
It's just something that people do because they want to do.
Because people actually have certain opinions and beliefs and values, man.
And, you know, that's the fucked up thing is they could have just waited a month to counter this protest because, you know, that is pride.
You know, June is pride month.
So, like, they could have just waited to counter this protest that happened last month.
And they didn't.
That's fucked up.
Yeah, they go after other people who have different beliefs.
Yeah, what are those different beliefs?
It doesn't matter.
No mind.
Don't worry about it.
They go after other people who came to their neighborhood to come after them.
Yeah.
They go after other people's beliefs, which are simply that they shouldn't exist.
It's like me showing up to Cat 14 Man's house with a sign that says Cat 14 Man is going to hell and is hurting our children.
You have the right.
You should have the right, Tony.
I should be able to do that.
I might do that.
They were ranting and raving because these people have faith and believe in family values.
Yeah, that's why.
And also, I think these protests, they just hated democracy.
They hate these religious people for their freedom.
That's why they were protesting them.
Well, newsflash, a huge percent of this country has family values.
There are other religions in this country besides Christianity, and those religions have some sort of faith, and they also believe in family values.
Even those who aren't religious may indeed have family values.
I am so tired of the endless drama queens.
And so, yeah, this is like, it's doing that, like, thing of, like, white nationalism.
Why can't white people be nationalists?
You know, it's doing that.
It's white.
Why can't these far-right people have family values?
Everybody should have family values.
And again, it's like, what are your family values that women and children should be subordinate to men?
Yeah.
Okay, I don't think those are very familial values.
Those seem like anti-family, as a matter of fact.
And it's like, I can't believe that this demographic of people who has fought tooth and nail for so long to be able to have families in general, I can't believe they don't support family values.
Yeah.
Never mind that there's a whole, I don't know, genre of, maybe genre is the wrong word, but there's a whole ideology of constructing a family intentionally.
Being queer and having your found family, having a group of people That you can share these family values with.
Love the Truth says, where have you seen leftists without violence?
They can't do otherwise.
history knows no other leftists and that is that is one thing that i'm i'm
Of leftists doing violence, but that's the history, and they'll try to erase it, but unfortunately, the left is a very warlike people, and they only care about conquering and dominating and wielding real politic over those they subjugate.
Yeah, don't forget, the left started civil war.
Don't forget that.
That was the left doing that.
It's so funny.
Okay, listen.
Violence is just like a human thing.
It's just a thing humans are capable of.
It happens throughout every political ideology.
It happens without political ideology.
It happens in general.
Some people do it for fun.
But you're going to ask, like...
I don't know.
It might be the ones that put guns on everything.
That identify as guns.
Yeah.
Like literally their family stickers on the back of their cars are different sized guns for representing parents and children.
It might be the side that loves how...
It might be the side that celebrates wholesale slaughter of Palestinian children.
It might be the side that says, might made right when we colonized whichever country we're talking about colonizing.
Like, I don't know.
It's just, it's funny to like, like the right wing or.
That's not going to fly.
No one's going to believe that.
It's funny because the statement was almost true.
It's like, where have you seen leftists without being met with violence?
That part to me is true.
They're always met with violence.
Violence is always brought to the doorstep.
Like I said, that's what happened here.
These leftists, and by that I mean queer people, Violence was brought to them.
Opposition was brought to them.
so they're right in that sense but they're wrong in the sense that who's actually perpetuating the violence yeah and like cultural culturally speaking like the right wing has been on on their You guys have been on that tip for a long time.
This isn't pretending that the left is the violent ones.
It doesn't fly.
Yeah.
Dink's bus.
I loved this reply.
Says queer neighborhood.
This is supposed to be the melting pot.
Not the striated East Berlin, West Berlin of the Communist Party.
And yeah, the queer neighborhood will shoot you if you try to leave.
Yep, that's true.
You're just there now.
And you know, I still can't believe they constructed those walls.
Or have the woke Democrats decided that like black dormitories and black graduations that we are supposed to be segregated?
How disgusting on this Memorial Day to hear and see such polarization in the name of democratic politics.
We just hate the polarization, Tony.
Why can't we all just come together to say that queer people need to get out of the public eye?
Why can't we all just come together in this melting pot to say gay people aren't allowed?
And when I say melting pot, what I mean is you have to become like me.
When I say melting pot, I mean the nuclear family from 1950.
Yeah.
This is supposed to be the meltdown.
What do you think the queer neighborhood is?
Yeah.
Hello.
There's not a less diverse area of the fucking world.
Or not a more diverse area.
That's what it is, man.
Do you think there's no straight people in Cap Hill?
I mean, I've never seen a straight person in Cap Hill.
Wearing nail polish doesn't automatically count, don't you?
Okay, that's true.
That's true.
Replying to this, Innsbruck says, keep them away from civil society.
They will implode on their own.
So just like even in this concern trolling comment section where everybody's like, how come Christians aren't allowed in the queer neighborhood?
We're just trying to be Christian.
Never mind there's like dozens of churches inside Capitol Hill.
Oh, you know, straight people aren't allowed.
Christians aren't allowed or whatever.
They can't even keep this up because, yeah, every other comment was gay people shouldn't be in the city at all.
Yeah, yeah.
Such as Innsbruck here saying keep them away from civil society.
They will implode on their own, which has a bunch of upvotes.
IMCC says it's odd how when a conservative Christian group chooses to have a rally, In a neighborhood that is deemed heavily queer that they are considered to be aggressive.
How about all the times that conservatives are subjected to parades and demonstrations in our neighborhoods against our beliefs?
Why are these events not classified as, quote, provocative?
It's about time that conservatives rally against all the rhetoric surrounding the queer agenda.
What are you talking about?
What parades have been held in homogenous, conservative, reactionary neighborhoods?
Why would anyone want to go there in the first place?
This person does live in a gay neighborhood, and they really are like, no, it's everywhere.
They didn't realize it's where they live the whole time, and they really are like, I'm inundated with it.
I can't turn left without seeing a rainbow flag.
Did one of your neighbors lynch a gay person?
Maybe that's why there's a gay pride parade in your suburban neighborhood for some reason.
You know what I mean?
That's the only thing I can see what they're talking about.
Did your local cops shoot somebody and that's why there was a march you didn't understand in your neighborhood?
That's the only reason anybody would bother coming to your fucking conservative neighborhood.
Insane.
Warfrat says the best thing the counter demonstrators could have done is ignore the original rally and no one would have covered it.
I think it interesting that the city wouldn't approve a permit to hold the rally elsewhere.
Seems they were intentionally drumming up a fight.
So this is exactly like what CBN wanted and what the organization wanted when they said well they wouldn't let us protest at Pike Place meaning we had to do it in the queer neighborhood.
Mm-hmm.
Like, that propaganda is effectively, you know, giving these people a talking point to be like, well, they didn't want to antagonize the queer community.
Seattle made them do it.
So it's funny to see that, like, being effective immediately.
Yeah.
But then they should have just ignored it, and then no one would have covered it.
There are, like, there are a ton of right-wing journalists And AM radio hosts and YouTubers in Seattle who would have absolutely covered this event, even if there were no counter-protesters.
And if there were no counter-protesters, I think that this group probably would have taken it as a good sign to get even more antagonistic.
They wanted the response, and if you don't give it to them, they're going to keep doing it and doing worse things until they get a response.
And I'm fine with them getting a response every time they do this shit.
If you got the day free, go give them a response.
It's a good thing to do.
Tell them how you feel.
It's great that hopefully people don't feel as safe coming to a neighborhood and telling people they shouldn't exist.
Yeah.
Kirk Slade says, I loved this response.
I'm Jewish.
I don't have a problem if the KKK wants to have a legal rally.
As long as it's legal, as long as the KKK rally is legal, then I don't have a...
Imagine, like, you know there's a KKK rally going on on the street.
Yeah, they got permits, though, so, you know, good on them.
Yeah, was it legal?
I think it's legal.
Oh, okay, cool.
Then that's good.
It's good that the KKK is legal.
Hmm, I don't know.
I don't know about that, but it goes on.
It shows how crazy they are.
Yeah, definitely.
We should give every racist an open forum so they can prove how freaking kooky they are and not use it as a way of organizing more kooky people to their cause the way we're seeing with the welcoming of racist voices to social media and other real life organizations.
Yeah, opposing this kind of stuff is important because it makes sure that people know that it is not popular and it shouldn't be appealing.
Because if it was done with no pushback, people would be like, okay, maybe they're on to something.
Maybe this is okay.
Maybe this is the way to go.
Or just get demoralized.
Like, damn, I guess I'm alone in feeling that this is mean and mean-spirited and antisocial or whatever.
And not have the courage to stand up against it because you don't think anybody's siding with you or whatever.
It's very important to show solidarity with our queer brothers and sisters and non-binary pals.
Okay.
It shows how crazy they are.
It's their right.
I obviously would not attend.
Well, that's good.
I'm glad you wouldn't attend.
If I want to have a pro-Israel parade, period, it's my right.
The left needs to understand this.
The left were the smart ones.
What happened to them?
So I love the two genders, KKK and Israel.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
I should be able to have my pro-Israel parade right.
As the left, we want me to have my pro-Israel parade right.
No.
The whole point of promoting something is because it is kind of being opposed, right?
So there's going to be opposition no matter what direction you're on, right?
If everybody liked it, there's no reason to promote it, I guess, you know?
Yeah, it's going to be controversial is what you're saying.
Yeah, yeah, to an extent, yeah.
I love him being like...
It's Israel, yep.
What a perfect fucking example.
Bro, yeah, this shows how insane you are.
It shows exactly how, and now I don't want an Israel parade in my neighborhood, but sure, you should be able to post about how you, you should be able to admit publicly how you like Israel, and it warns everybody else from interacting with you freely, you know?
And the whole thing, the whole thing about America is that, like, you know, If you have the right to go ahead and do your Israel Parade, and we have the right to show up to Israel Parade and tell you you suck.
Yeah.
I liked this response.
I think this is the last one I had.
Patrick Murawskinski says, Why do these people on the left not want to hear a counterposition, an argument with the facts, or that they're wrong?
We see it time and time again.
Social media, parentheses, E.g.
Reddit.
And groups, parentheses, E.g.
r slash 50501, which can't handle the truth and apparently responding with violence?
It seems very specific.
I feel like this was motivated by a particular event in a particular social media space.
We see it time and time again with my college, my community college.
Yeah.
And specific groups, a.k.a.
the Black Student Association.
Yeah, yeah.
Do you know what is our 50-501?
I don't know how to say it because it's not 50-51.
It's 50-50 and then the number one after that.
But what it is, is it's like some group that was trying to organize 50 protests in 50 states against Trump.
Okay.
And so it was like an anti-Trump Reddit.
And this guy's like, they don't allow, they don't allow the free exchange of ideas in the anti-Trump Reddit.
And I got kicked out probably for, Yeah, no doubt.
And this is just indicative of our society at large.
No one wants to be my friend.
Yeah, if you think society is Reddit, touch grass.
Yeah, shout out to the counter-protesters.
Shout out to them showing up, including, like, I don't know, you know, normie libs that I know who were there.
And keep doing it.
Keep it up.
It's good work.
Good on you, Seattle.
My inventory of energy makes me feel so lovely.
Insert from to my memory.
Fuck it, just gonna be you and me.
And my clock now seems to test my beats.
Till we run a battery.
I'm so software, baby, you're so hard.
I'm so software, baby, you're so hard.
Oh, no.
Starmer is Hamas, France is Hamas, and Spain in particular is Hamas.
It's kind of crazy to see.
Yeah, just extreme anti-Semitic rhetoric.
Coming out of the UK and the European Union in general, anti-Semitic rhetoric such as, it's bad to starve children.
Wow.
They just say anything these days without thinking about it.
That's wild.
They better be careful because if all these places are Hamas, those are potential targets that America will endorse.
That's a really good point.
I've heard that there are even hospitals in Europe, and that's scary to me, to know that those hospitals are operating with impunity all across the continent.
That's terrifying, yeah.
It's absolutely scary.
Reading here from an article in the Jerusalem Post, support for Palestinians may prove dangerous for Europe.
Opinion.
Hmm.
I wonder what they mean by that.
It sounds kind of like a threat.
It sounds kind of like what we were just talking about.
Support for Palestinians may prove dangerous for civilians in Europe as well as vital infrastructure or even, you know, food supplies.
That is so scary that Israel's like, hey, Europe, fucking bring it.
The European Union established...
So sad, Tony.
Wow.
When I think of the European Union, it's like, well, what good are they if they're not supporting Israel's right to exist?
Why even have a European Union if it doesn't sign off on everything Israel does?
I don't get it.
Yeah, it's incredible.
I don't understand.
Why would you even try to win?
World War II, if you're not going to support Israel, I don't see why you would even waste your time with that.
It is very funny for all the talk about like how Israelis are indigenous to Israel, yada, yada, yada.
And yet Israel is expressing, expressing like shock that Europe isn't in lockstep with them.
And they're, you know, also like...
It's just like, you guys are European.
Just shut the fuck up.
Okay, reading here from this article.
In June 1980, the Venice Declaration was published, a political document that set dangerous precedent in European Union's approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Though decades have passed, The Declaration's principles, affirming the, quote, legitimate rights of the Palestinian people and calling for active European involvement, remain a cornerstone of EU policy.
Over time, that policy has often shifted from diplomacy to near-automatic backing of the Palestinian side, even at the expense of truth and morality.
The European Union, established after the world wars to safeguard peace, has, in recent years, become a promoter of an anti-Israel narrative.
Instead of bridging divides, it deepens them.
Instead of mediating, it incites.
Instead of addressing real threats, it embraces an imagined Palestinian political vision detached from reality.
Jesus.
We're just trying to bridge the divide.
And when I'm like, oh, you mean like that barbed wire fence you erected around their neighborhood?
No.
No.
Then not that divide.
That divide is very important.
That divide needs to stay.
It's a more nuanced divide.
You wouldn't understand.
It's a more rhetorical divide between us and Europe.
Like, that divide needs to go.
There is no divide.
There should be no divide between us and Europe.
Also, we're indigenous to the Middle East, but also we should be one with Europe.
However, the very literal apartheid state we have, that divide, I'm sorry, it's a necessary evil.
That's just the way the system works, unfortunately.
Seeking to distance themselves from U.S. policy, European countries gave the PLO legitimacy and centered the idea of a Palestinian state in international discourse.
What began as a vague statement evolved into a firm position.
Support for a two-state solution, even as the so-called, quote, Palestinian state embraces terrorism and Israel defends its existence.
We're not going to litigate the definition of terrorism here because we talk about it every time we fucking talk about it.
It's terrorism when Palestinians do it.
However, it's like a righteous military crusade whenever Israel flattens a whole fucking neighborhood or whatever.
But I also like them referencing this acceptance of a two-state solution as somehow radical when that's been the moderate, even liberal Zionist Goal for the last, however, you know, decades, the actual, like, modern, I don't know, more radical solution is a one-state, is a multi-ethnic, multi-religious, single-state solution that serves all the members of the state.
But they can't even, like, I don't know, bring that up as a hypothetical.
They're so afraid of it.
I think in this article, because I'm sure there's, I'm sure there's plenty of European politicians who have called for a single state solution because that's like the, that's the official, you know, plank of the pro Palestinian movement in, in, in so far as like legal recognition of the state of Palestine.
That's what people are fighting for now at this point, because nobody thinks that a second state.
Look what Israel does to other states on its borders.
It doesn't matter if it has the sovereignty of a state.
Israel's going to fucking violate that as long as Zionists are in charge of Israel.
Yeah.
And like you said, they can't even acknowledge the single state solution because that acknowledges that it is an option and something that can be pursued.
They can't even bring it up.
On Sunday, Spain hosted a summit of European and Arab countries in Madrid to promote the two-state solution and seek an end to the war in Gaza.
Spain, the summit host, issued a strong message.
Immediately suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which underpins trade, scientific cooperation, and diplomatic ties.
That's the least you could do.
Yeah.
Do it immediately.
That's the best part about all this.
They're getting mad about a finger wag.
But these are all countries that have militaries.
If they were all just to decide one day, hey, listen, we're all going to go ahead and fight you.
We're all going to go ahead and stop you.
It's completely possible.
It's completely possible.
this could be ended tomorrow if, you know, they decide to do more than, you know, shame them.
Well, the thing is, um...
Thank you.
I don't know if you've noticed this, Tony.
Israel is a psychotic state.
Israelis are completely detached from reality.
There is a very real chance they would just start a nuclear holocaust.
If they were outnumbered, like actually outnumbered, if America turned on them, if these other powerful states turned on Israel, there's a very real fucking chance that Israel would just take out everybody with them.
I completely forgot that they have that power.
I completely forgot.
That's so terrifying.
Now I'm not saying you shouldn't try anything or I'm just saying that is something, it wouldn't just be as simple as But you can't just let them do whatever the fuck they want, man, because they're that crazy.
You have to put a stop to them somehow.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, Spain also urged the EU to quickly recognize a Palestinian state and impose an international arms embargo on Israel unless Jerusalem halts its campaign in Gaza.
Beautiful.
I mean, this is absolutely what you should be doing short of bombing Israel itself.
Yeah.
Amen.
Europe is undergoing significant social shifts.
That was like a...
Meanwhile, Europe is undergoing significant social shifts over the past decade, and especially since the 2015 migration wave, Islam has grown, not just demographically, but ideologically.
Entire neighborhoods in France, Sweden, and Germany have become, quote, quote, cultural enclaves where local laws are replaced by Sharia.
This is so funny.
It's just like, who does...
I feel bad for you if this stuff works on you.
Yeah, absolutely.
To think that there's now an area in Berlin where women have to be completely covered.
That's true.
You can't show an ankle in that area of Berlin anymore.
I've seen women covered in those cities.
It's true.
My cousin's friend got thrown off of a roof for being gay.
Oh, fuck.
It was my cousin's friend.
Damn.
Yeah.
Shout out to that dude.
More alarmingly, a political religious ideology is gaining ground in mosques, schools, and political circles.
One that rejects western democratic values, women's and LGBTQ plus rights, and aims to delegitimize Israel as a quote, colonial entity.
We'll see.
Maybe more on this in a different segment, but I love the inclusion here of LGBTQ plus rights when so many of the Zionists that are defending Israel, that are funding Israel, that are funding opposition to the pro-Palestinian organizations are also funding anti-trans legislation, are also funding far-right candidates, are also supporting far-right candidates.
Who are opposed to LGBTQ plus rights?
Like when you see, I don't know, when you see like Muslim Americans running for Congress or when you see Muslim British PMs or whatever, those guys aren't the religious fundamentalists trying to impose their fucking religion on everybody.
No, they're usually they're usually like running on like a secular, democratic, pluralistic.
They recognize that they're part of a society that has to coexist with multiple cultures and multiple lifestyles and they don't take their supremacy for granted the way white Christians or Zionists tend to do.
No, I heard of a guy and he was running and they asked what his platform was and he just held up a Quran.
Yeah.
Europe is importing Ding, ding, ding.
Europe is importing an ideology that seeks to change it from within, and its response has been weak.
Fear of being labeled racist, electoral opportunism, and cultural paralysis have allowed radical Islam to gradually infiltrate democratic institutions.
beautiful so i just i love this because it's like
to take out the pure white race.
When instead you look at history, Israel and Zionists supported apartheid South Africa.
They were one of the few countries to come to their defense.
They are supportive of apartheid in their own country.
Like Israel is one of the most fucking racist countries on the planet.
The idea that like there's some nefarious pro- And I love that they lay it out here in this article.
We're not racist enough.
That is what this Zionist opinion section is saying.
that liberals are too soft on brown people.
Yep.
And that's why...
That's why there's pro-Palestinian sentiment is because we're not racist enough against brown people.
Yeah, you gotta be racist in the right direction at least.
That's the whole thing about racism is you gotta do it correctly.
And so just like the idea that Zionists use anti-racism to further their goals instead of using overt racism to fuel their goals and to achieve their goals.
I mean, they will tell you themselves.
I didn't even have to translate this from Hebrew.
You know what I mean?
It's all out there in plain text.
Yeah.
Europe is importing an ideology.
Yeah, again, talking about people like they're cattle.
They're importing these hordes.
It's also like, yeah, you're talking about people from Middle Eastern countries, Arab people, Muslim people moving to Europe.
Why do you think they have to leave where they're from?
Why do you think they're being displaced?
What do you think is causing that?
There's a bunch of Palestinians in Europe?
Why are they there?
Why do they have to flee?
They're not fleeing.
They're spreading the message.
And it's like, what the fuck is wrong with you?
Yeah, it's not only that like Israel is ethnically cleansing Palestine and Gaza and is bombing the shit out of its Muslim neighbors or, you know, just Arab neighbors.
It's also just, yeah, imperialism in general, American empire, this idea that we need to subjugate the Middle East.
We need to bend the Middle East to our whims.
We need to get to decide what the Middle East gets to do and what they do.
That's fueling all of this displacement.
I don't know.
It's weird.
There was a moment in time where even the right wing had to accept that American interventionism was the cause of this mass migration, of terrorism, of reaction.
It all went out the window when Trump proved himself to be a normal neocon, like we all, like most of us on the left, were able to see.
you know, but he was willing to criticize the Iraq war.
There was a willingness on the right to criticize the Iraq war in terms of, um, Now, of course, that can't stick because the right wing is capitalist.
And so wherever the money goes, that's where the ideology goes.
But I think any reasonable person will admit that American empire, European empire, Israeli colonialism, all of this stuff is causing...
And even, you know, just because, like, I think the right wing would be able to admit it now.
They won't have the same solutions to it that we would.
Their response to that, I think, would be, I don't care.
Let them drown.
Or I don't care.
Shoot them.
You know, yeah, Israel fucked them over.
We don't want them here either.
shoot them if they cross the border, that would be their...
So it's not like you can necessarily solve any problems by forming an anti-imperial coalition with these people.
Maybe if you can get them to stop the actual interventionism, I doubt that.
Any reasonable person has to admit that there are actual material forces at work, and it's not just either, oh, the Jews.
convinced migrant hordes to infiltrate the West or Arab hordes are deliberately infiltrating the West so they can be anti-Zionist and anti-Israel in the West.
Both of these conspiracy theories are jokes.
Yeah.
This is the last paragraph I'll read from this op-ed.
The numbers are revealing.
Government reports in France and Germany show anti-Semitism among Muslim youth is significantly above average.
Thousands of Muslim Europeans have joined jihadist groups.
Again, what is that?
Like your DSA student group?
But it keeps going.
On university campuses, Jewish professors fear speaking up.
Students are harassed.
And the boycott, divestment, and sanctions movement dominates student bodies.
So yeah, this is like the anti-Semitism and terrorism that they're talking about is a boycott movement.
Yeah.
It's being critical of Israel.
Like, I hate that they're so easily able to convolute those two things.
And like, yeah, the only Jewish professors who are scared to speak up are the ones who are critical of Israel, who are, you know, supporting Palestine because they might lose their jobs.
They will actually be fired.
Yeah.
Those are the ones who were scared to speak up.
Like, it sucks so bad.
It's like, and like, to convolute someone being critical of this genocide as violence, like saying, hey, stop, stop doing genocide.
Like that statement is violence to these people.
Yeah.
I thought this was a place where all cultures could come together and talk about exterminating the other cultures.
It's weird.
I mean, we're the same people that were supporting gay neighborhoods in the last segment, and now we're over here being critical of a Zionist neighborhood that's becoming a country that's just genociding people to get more land.
Where does it start?
Where does it begin?
I just realized another thing that's very funny is because, yeah, you get these comments of like, oh, gay people for Palestine.
Yeah, you'd be killed.
You'd be murdered in Palestine.
Well, first of all, yes, you would be by Israel.
Israel would drop a bomb on you.
Second of all, even if that were the case, which it's not, there has been gay groups going to Palestine to help with, you know, and they get thanked for helping them in fucking dire, This dire situation that they're in.
But even if it were true, doesn't that fly in the face of your idea that queer communities or gay people can't stand Christians just because they have a different opinion?
It's like, here are queer communities supporting often people who might believe in a fundamental religion because guess what?
They're being fucking exterminated.
If there were, like, a group of Christians who were just trying to fucking exist and they were getting bombed to death by another country or by an occupying force, I'm sure those same queer communities would support those Christians' right to not be exterminated, to not be wiped off the face of the fucking earth despite having a difference of opinion.
And even this, yeah, you know, like, as a whole, Palestine might not be a Christian country, but there are a lot of Christians who live there who are also being exterminated.
Like, yeah, they're literally doing what you're saying they don't do.
And so I was just like, I was thinking, okay, because Keir Starmer is the head of the, he's the prime minister, but he's also like the head of the Labor Party.
And yeah, he just very recently came out and was like, hey, y 'all, I think starving children is bad.
We don't support anti-Semitism.
We hate anti-Semites.
We love Israel.
But can we not starve so many kids?
Can we let them get a little bit of fucking food?
And I was like, okay, so Starmer, I don't know British politics that well.
But I'm like, Starmer, he's the head of the Labor Party.
The most I know about the Labor Party is that, one, they kind of suck now, but two, they kicked Jeremy Corbyn's ass straight out of that party for, quote, anti-Semitism.
Do you remember this?
It's like back in 2016 or back in 2018 or something.
Jeremy Corbyn, who had a pretty cool platform for the Labor Party in Britain, Something similar to Bernie Sanders' Workers' Bill of Rights.
He had a giant manifesto that was like, this is what we believe in, this is what we're going to achieve.
It was class-based ideology.
But he had a history of supporting Palestinian causes, and he had a history of supporting uprisings against Israeli aggression and Israeli genocide.
And so there was like a statewide campaign, also an internal labor campaign to kick him out of the labor party, to, to get him out of power in the labor party because of quote, anti-Semitism.
And this was like one of the first times I remember seeing anti-Semitism weaponized in such a cynical, flagrant way.
And I was like, hmm, did Keir Starmer have anything to do with that?
And I went and I searched Starmer Corbyn anti-Semitism.
And I have a different Jerusalem Post article.
Incoming UK PM Starmer, quote, a man of moderation who purged Corbyn and tackled anti-Semitism.
Wow.
Just a year after becoming an MP, Starmer joined a rebellion by labor lawmakers over radical left-winger Jeremy Corbyn's perceived lack of leadership during EU referendum campaign.
It failed, and later that year, he rejoined the top team as Labor's Brexit spokesman, where he remained until succeeding Corbyn after he took the party to its worst defeat since 1935 in the last election five years ago.
Starmer moved the party back to the more electable center ground, purging Corbyn and rooting out anti-Semitism.
Only for, to cut forward to today, when Keir Starmer says, hey, maybe Israel shouldn't starve so many Palestinian children, Netanyahu accuses Starmer of siding with Hamas.
Amazing.
Yeah, because it's like, maybe if the guy who was writing for you so hard a couple years ago, maybe if he's being critical of you, Maybe chill.
Maybe think about that.
But also just like, hmm, maybe this state that is actively starving children and accusing any criticism of being anti-Semitism didn't have pure noble goals when I helped them get rid of Jeremy Corbyn.
Yep.
Just like how could you stomach being...
Fuck you, dude.
This is what you get.
You deserve worse.
I hope Israel does something.
Yeah, that'd be the poetry we're looking for here.
Yeah, like, get fucked by Israel after, you know, supporting him so hard.
Which is what's happening.
And just, this is the lesson.
This is the lesson of, like, capitulating to the right.
I mean, we saw it with Jason Whitlock in the last episode.
This is just...
This is...
Like, I don't...
they're bad people.
They're bad people.
And you don't, There's a huge chance it's gonna get you.
Yeah, it's gonna bite you in the ass.
Yeah, I have...
I liked this guy.
Conservative psychologist on Twitter who's at Psychology Right says, Starmer is trying to force Israel to leave Hamas in power then give them a state from which to conduct further attacks on Jews.
Thus, Hamas thanked him two days ago.
He got a little letter in the mail, a little thank you card from Hamas.
Also, it's just like, maybe they were thanking him for trying to get their kids food.
Yes.
Maybe that's why they thanked him.
Yeah, exactly.
But I just love conservatives.
Oh, go ahead.
Yeah, but yeah, exactly.
To just conflate, hey, maybe don't starve kids.
You know, we actually need to...
Not the same thing.
Yeah, Starmer wants a sort of open floor plan office in Palestine with like a cafeteria.
And pinball machines so that Hamas, they can feel comfortable and satisfied enough to where they can just attack Israel 24-7.
They don't even have to go home.
They just feel right at home.
I was disgusted when he suggested maybe adding a slide option instead of just stairs.
Yeah, they're trying to attract top talent to Hamas, and that is not acceptable.
And I went to a conservative psychologist's profile, and his fucking cover photo is one of those 3D Alex Gray-looking maps of the nerve endings in a brain, but the brain casing is translucent.
This is AI, obviously, created this, and it's just created off of 1,000 popular science magazine covers.
Or like 1,000 Psychology Today magazine covers that have a 3D rendering of a brain on it.
But then there's an American flag in the background.
And like the best part is like the whole thing about those maps of like, you know, the, the, There's kind of a beauty in how it's mapped out on the brain.
And like you said, we have countless of these images that exist.
They've already existed a million times.
but this just has like different color swirls all over it with like no rhyme or reason whatsoever.
And it barely looks like, And like you said, these images already exist.
You just had to put one over the other.
I think it's supposed to look like electrical currents running through.
Because it doesn't look like synapses.
They're orange and pink and blue.
They're sort of that light-up neon, high-contrast style of illustration.
So I think it's supposed to look like electrical signals maybe, or like veins, but it really just looks like brain worms.
It just looks like a bunch of worms running through this brain.
Absolutely brain worms, yeah.
What is the avatar?
Is it another brain?
It's a brain, but the brain is the American flag.
But it's also like the brain stem where it would connect to your spine is rising out of dirt in like a farm.
Hold on, I gotta go to this.
I gotta see this.
It's incredible.
So, twitter.com slash...
Psychology, right?
There are three brains in the screenshot right now.
There's the brain we talked about in the beginning, the brain that's his profile pic, and there's a brain that is bio.
And the emoji brain is the closest one to a real brain, I think.
Hold on.
I'm trying to see if I can add it to my screenshot collections.
What the fuck, man?
It is.
It's like a brain bush.
It's like the lobes of the brain are American flag colors.
It's rendered like it's supposed to look realistic.
It's supposed to look like a 3D realistic brain.
Yeah.
But it's stars and stripes on the lobes.
Like, the left half of the brain is the stars, and the right half of the brain is the stripes.
But then, like, underneath where, like, your glands would be, like the two other little bulbs, like what would look like the balls on the brain?
Yeah, we all know about the brain balls.
Right.
Those are, like, flesh-colored, and then the brain stem is also flesh-colored, and it just goes straight down into dirt.
Yep.
What was he doing, man?
Why did he make this?
What did he tell?
Is it supposed to be a pun or something?
Grow your brain?
I don't understand.
It does not make a lot of sense.
Well, I think as an American conservative, the lifeblood of this country are the American farmers, but also the brains.
So let's maybe combine those two into an AI image that serves both.
Also, the texture of the Stars and Stripes, it looks like house paint.
It's like they took a real brain and then painted it with house paint.
So they got the texture from the side of a wall of a building, of a wooden building that's painted like an American flag.
And that's where they overlaid over this brain.
It's all just bad.
But his bio says brain.
Emoji.
Musings of a rare conservative doctor of psychology.
Well, at least it's rare.
I like that he's admitting that there's not a lot of us.
Yeah, most psychologists start studying and realizing some of their opinions are fucking stupid.
Most people who take a look at cognitive and behavioral health are not raving right-wing lunatics.
Very interesting.
Okay.
Musings of a rare conservative doctor of psychology.
Not therapy.
Focusing recently on being a voice against anti-Western slash Israel slash Christian slash Jewish sentiment.
Well done.
That's definitely what you should be doing with your psychology doctorate.
Yeah.
Is Israeli propaganda.
Which I'm starting to think doesn't exist, this degree in psychology.
And then his pinned post, and this is the last thing I'll read, but his pinned post says, I'm Dr. X, clinical psychologist.
And the X is the X emoji.
It's like the X whatever symbol from the logo from the website.
But it's like, I'm Dr. X?
I thought you were the conservative psychologist.
Pick a brand, brother.
Pick a brand.
It's the brain.
That's your brain.
We want to pick your brain, not your brand.
And you can't be the psychologist out here saying that Twitter is good for your brain.
You can't.
That's not going to help you.
I'm Dr. X, clinical psychologist.
Surveys found that 93% of psychologists lean left.
Not me.
I wish you could see my colleagues' reactions when I break their echo chamber for the first time.
Is it horror?
Is it shock and horror and disgust?
I can imagine that.
I don't really need to see it.
Follow me to join a ship of reason in a sea of leftist tears.
And he's included an AI image of an old schooner, an old sailing vessel, but there's a giant American flag on it, and it's in rocky waters, and laid over it is text that says, a ship of reason in a sea of leftist tears.
Man, we gotta stop with the AI.
Like, dude, there are plenty of pictures of ships with American flags on it that exist.
Like, you could still put the letters.
These people are just so about, like, what's...
Instant gratification.
They're so against stealing ideas.
That's someone else's artwork.
I can't just do that.
I gotta make my own.
Here's what you do, brother.
Because they're trying to prevent you from owning that movie.
I don't know if you know that.
They're trying to prevent you from owning anything.
It's true.
And then you take out your cell phone and you take a photo of your fucking TV screen.
That's what you do.
Boom.
Follow me to join a ship of reason in a sea of leftist tears.
There's so many metaphors.
It's too many metaphors!
Stop!
Like, that's the call to action.
There is no, like, thing...
It just says, just do it.
Just join them.
Well, you hit the follow button.
Hit the follow button.
Yep.
Absolutely.
Yeah, I love the idea that these people that are, like, anti-WEF, anti, like, the Great Reset, where you'll own nothing and you'll like it.
Like, these people's main interaction with technology is going to a privately owned website program and asking that website or program to make the thing that they want.
And it's totally, like, in the cloud.
It's not yours.
It's, like, quote, decentralized.
like you're never going to own chat GPT.
You're only using it now because you're,
And it probably will be way more than $9.99 if they're actually interested in raising a profit.
More likely, you just won't be able to use it because this bubble's gonna fucking burst.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're gonna think of ChatGPT like many sites that have gone to pass, you know?
It's pitiful.
I can't wait till they put a fucking paywall on it.
Like, it's gonna be so amazing.
But then again, we're looking at this guy, and he is verified, by the way, so maybe they don't really care about paywalls.
God, I fucking wish.
Dude, I heard one of the most cursed podcast ads ever.
It was like a Microsoft ad.
I mean, I guess it's good that the podcast hosts themselves weren't the ones reading it, so maybe charitably they didn't know that it was part of their ad sales program or whatever.
It was a fucking Microsoft ad advertising free AI use for college students.
It's just like goddamn.
Suicide.
Public suicide.
Loud suicide of a nation.
Yeah, it's like going ahead and targeting the people who are actually still learning.
Yeah, we can't have that.
No.
Yeah, okay.
Well, I don't know.
Let's leave it here.
Good episode.
Thank you for joining us, Tony.
Yeah, anytime.
I mean, I'm happy to be here every single time.
It brings purpose to my life, and I'm glad to do it.
Yeah, you know, when you guys...
Just go plant your brain in some soil.
You know what I mean.
Yeah.
Ideas are some of our nation's most important crops and I wish they could be subsidized the way that ethanol is.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Until that day, listener, we'll talk to you again.
Bye.
Peace.
I have chilled on that stoop before.
I have chilled on that stoop.
Nothing is forgotten.
We're heaven in the concrete.
