| I've come down here and this board, my board, is over there. | ||
| So stop stealing my skateboard. | ||
| I'm not stealing your skateboard, bro. | ||
| Dude, you're stealing my skateboard. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I borrowed your skateboard. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I borrowed it. | |
| I got my own skateboards over here. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| You got your own board. | ||
| What is this? | ||
| Stop borrowing my stuff. | ||
| Borrowing your stuff? | ||
| I mean, you did get me this. | ||
| This is a strong start. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| This is a strong start. | ||
| Are we live? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, good. | ||
| For the record, everyone knows he's been stealing my board. | ||
| It's my board. | ||
| He's been borrowing the skateboard. | ||
| Well, while you're on your rants about whatever you're ranting about, I do little kickflips over here. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| I've been stealing Adam's skateboard. | ||
| Stop taking it. | ||
| You got your own. | ||
| You got like three of them there. | ||
| I do. | ||
| It's true. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, but that one's better. | |
| I know. | ||
| That's better. | ||
| Because I know how to grip a board. | ||
| You do. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| I gripped mine terribly. | ||
| The other one's over there. | ||
| Dude, I looked at yours. | ||
| It's sloppy. | ||
| No, this is just, I slept on a regular tech deck. | ||
| Yeah, sloppy. | ||
| Look at those over there. | ||
| The two over there are good, but that's where the half pipe's at. | ||
| Why wouldn't you have the half pipe over here? | ||
| I put a half pipe up here. | ||
| What is happening? | ||
| So I, we have, we have finger boards and Adam was like, Hey man, you're stealing my board. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Welcome to the show. | ||
| They heard. | ||
| This is apparently a podcast. | ||
| We don't plan anything out as you can obviously tell. | ||
| Welcome to our studio. | ||
| Man, this is a crazy story. | ||
| This is the important stuff. | ||
| We got a bunch of stories. | ||
| The Second Amendment has been renewed completely. | ||
| Yes, yes. | ||
| Every liberal in the country now has like, shut up. | ||
| And a lot of them have flipped their, changed their story. | ||
| The craziest thing was I saw this meme where a guy was like, the Karen from my block who's constantly trying to organize gun control protests, just tried to organize a community watch, like to pitch in money to like higher armed security. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yep, yep. | ||
| There's a video from Long Island, I think. | ||
| Oh, how the UFO spins. | ||
| Oh, how the UFO spins. | ||
| See what I did there? | ||
| Do you see what I did? | ||
| Yep, you did. | ||
| How the world spins. | ||
| So this is interesting. | ||
| This is the lead we're gonna be talking about. | ||
| A Black Lives Matter leader, who I've talked about, I think he's a cool dude, Hank Newsome, said they want essentially armed community patrols. | ||
| And I was thinking about this because I know a lot of people take it to a dark place immediately and I'm like, I don't think it's a dark place. | ||
| I'm 100% with you. | ||
| But we'll get to this. | ||
| People taking responsibility for their own safety, their own communities, arming themselves and stuff, being responsible. | ||
| I think it's wonderful. | ||
| Yeah, but we've got a lot to talk about, so if you're just tuning in, this is the Tim Guest IRL Show. | ||
| I'm hanging out with my friends here. | ||
| Oh, you know me. | ||
| What's up, everybody? | ||
| It's Adam. | ||
| Adam Krigman. | ||
| There's Lydia. | ||
| Sour Patch Lids. | ||
| That's Lydia. | ||
|
unidentified
|
How's it going? | |
| Sour Patch Lids. | ||
| Indeed. | ||
| Smash the like button. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Smash it! | ||
| Or tap it. | ||
| We were just in a tornado. | ||
| No joke. | ||
| We got the alarms like 15 minutes ago. | ||
| It came and it went. | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
| Because it's kind of bright out right now. | ||
| And I was sitting here and I guess Lydia's phone made a noise or whatever. | ||
| Yeah, well I saw it lit up. | ||
| And then it was like, tornado warning, seek shelter now. | ||
| And we were all like, well, we got to do the show. | ||
| So we just, you know, took care of some stuff and then came back and the sky turned almost pitch black. | ||
| You couldn't see anything outside. | ||
| There was a rumble and a roar. | ||
| And then like 20 minutes later, now it's... It's not even raining anymore. | ||
| It's not even raining anymore. | ||
| Yeah, it's gone. | ||
| So that was fun. | ||
| It's a slight drizzle. | ||
| So we were kind of worried about that, but we're all good. | ||
| So here's what you can do. | ||
| You can smash the like button because it really does help. | ||
| Subscribe. | ||
| Hit the notification bell. | ||
| Share. | ||
| Share it. | ||
| I just shared it. | ||
| I think. | ||
| I spread the word. | ||
| I gotta be honest, man. | ||
| We had a really, really big show. | ||
| We were out yesterday because I had a really bad sore throat. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| For real. | ||
| And so, you know, it's not worth risking losing five shows just taking the night off. | ||
| True. | ||
| But the night before was our biggest night ever. | ||
| It was. | ||
| And I gotta say, I think it's because you guys share that it really does help. | ||
| I think so, too. | ||
| So we're here to say thank you. | ||
| Thank you everybody. | ||
| You guys are fantastic. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| I'm gonna spin the UFO for you. | ||
| Can we get the wide shot? | ||
| Yeah, there we go. | ||
| We gotta move that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Can we? | |
| Yeah, okay. | ||
| This is for everybody. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| Free UFO spin. | ||
| Yeah, so what you're hearing, if you're hearing it, it's probably faint. | ||
| The air cleaner. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, I think we need to charge that thing. | ||
| We're not going to be able to spin it. | ||
| Consider it spun. | ||
| That thing's been levitating nonstop for a couple weeks now. | ||
| It hasn't come off. | ||
| Yeah, that's a good point. | ||
| So anyway, if you want to get your Super Chat in, I've got to warn you right now. | ||
| On that Monday, we had this really big show. | ||
| YouTube literally erased the super chats from our like studio. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because there were too many. | ||
| I didn't know that was even possible. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| And then in order to try and even read all of them, it would, it's impossible. | ||
| And normally we speed things up. | ||
| So just keep in mind, if you do super chat, we might not get to your super chats. | ||
| We will try our best. | ||
| But at a certain point, we just start going through it. | ||
| And it is what it is. | ||
| We got a bunch of stories, man. | ||
| I'm losing my mind on this stuff. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because they told us we couldn't go outside. | ||
| We still can't go outside. | ||
| The other day, I was like, do we have Nesquik? | ||
| I wanted Nesquik. | ||
| When was the last time you had some of that? | ||
| Long time. | ||
| I don't even remember. | ||
| It's better than regular chocolate milk. | ||
| It's got vitamins in it, too. | ||
| Is that right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's fortified. | ||
| I'm sitting there, and I can't remember what happened. | ||
| I was eating peanut butter and jelly, and the store was closed. | ||
| And I was like, what do you mean? | ||
| The store was closed? | ||
| Curfew. | ||
| Yeah, we're under curfew still. | ||
| Walmart was closed. | ||
| And I'm like, I don't understand why I can't go out and buy chocolate milk right now. | ||
| Because everyone's out protesting in this state. | ||
| We're in Jersey, up in Newark, and my mind is blown. | ||
| And then I see these photos going viral of nurses celebrating and cheering, and I'm like, The nurses were just blocking the cars of other protesters when they were protesting the lockdown. | ||
| Wrong kind of protest, Tim. | ||
| Yep, wrong kind of people. | ||
| So I'm losing my mind over this, man. | ||
| How we're in this position where all of a sudden, now it's coming out, the New York Times is saying, you know about that study that said hydroxychloroquine wasn't safe and Trump was wrong? | ||
| The thing is, it's probably not real. | ||
| They don't want to say it too loud, because they don't want to admit Trump was right. | ||
| Why did the media come out and say this drug was unsafe, and now as soon as they start lifting the lockdown and the protests are out, they're like, oh, it's safe again? | ||
| Because people take it. | ||
| That's melting my brain. | ||
| Yeah, people take it for other stuff. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yeah, we're going to talk about this later, right? | ||
| So what, a study came out just to go after Trump? | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, definitely. | ||
| Okay, okay. | ||
| But I really want to talk about guns. | ||
| I've got some things to say, but I'll wait until the subject. | ||
| I want to talk about guns. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Yeah, let's talk about guns. | ||
| All right, Alex. | ||
| Let's get started with this first, Alex. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Today we're talking about guns, people. | ||
| We are prepared to stop these murders by any means necessary. | ||
| Black Lives Matter leader declares war on police and group is, quote, training our people to defend our communities in Black Panther styled armed patrols. | ||
| That's, that's, that's, that was a bold statement. | ||
| I read that. | ||
| I was like, declare war. | ||
| I mean, it sounds kind of scary, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I kind of like it. | ||
| I'm like, what's so, so, so hold on. | ||
| You mean to tell me this dude Hank Newsome is saying in his community, he wants to keep their community safe. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Exercise his legal rights. | ||
| I don't see any. | ||
| And give people in their community a purpose. | ||
| They have something to get up for. | ||
| Be like, you know what? | ||
| I'm patrolling the neighborhood, keeping it safe today. | ||
| I feel good. | ||
| I'm doing something for my community. | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| I don't like this though, declaring war. | ||
| It's like bro don't don't yeah on the police when you know we see you know black people getting killed right now and their business is being destroyed right now it's it's well right right by who knows who you know but it's like but they're not bringing those up the wire talking about that you see that sassy woman who was like you said black lives matter but what about my store what about me and yeah you know what I mean yeah exactly but what I mean with this is You've got a guy who is Hank Newsom, activist, law-abiding citizen, apparently gun owner, I guess? | ||
| I imagine. | ||
| All legal things. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And they're saying he's de- they use the language declaring war on police because it's a shock, sensational title. | ||
|
unidentified
|
True. | |
| And I'm like, come on, come on, come on. | ||
| Did he even say that, though? | ||
| Probably not, but we'll read it. | ||
| Alex Jones said that's what Joe Rogan said. | ||
| He's bringing the war. | ||
| It never happened. | ||
| It's being embellished. | ||
| This is the mainstream media we're talking about. | ||
| I think it's fair if you want to be like, yeah. | ||
| But this one's like, not the time, because he's talking about arming his community. | ||
| And if you say he's declaring war on the police while arming his community, it sounds like people are going to go march to the police department with guns, and that's not what he's talking about. | ||
| He's talking about Black Panther-style community patrols. | ||
| They say, in an exclusive interview, Newsom says, the BLM movement has marched for years to wake people up to the realities of police brutality and oppression. | ||
| And he believes that since the tragic death of George Floyd, who died after his neck was pinned under the knee of a white police officer during an arrest on Memorial Day, people have finally awoken. | ||
| It's our obligation, it's our duty to provide people with a pathway forward, and that's the purpose you were talking about. | ||
| Dude, I actually am really optimistic about this. | ||
| We want, here's a quote, we want liberation, we want the power to determine our own destiny, we want freedom from an oppressive government, and we want the immediate end of government-sanctioned murder by the police. | ||
| I'm like, that sounds very 1776 of you, brother. | ||
| That's all good things. | ||
| Agreed. | ||
| So he says, we're preparing and training our people to defend our communities. | ||
| Now, what does that mean? | ||
| I do fear there's going to be anti-police conflict or sentiment. | ||
| But I also believe if you have, there was a group called Legally Armed in Detroit, I think it was, standing on the steps of the Capitol, firearms trainers. | ||
| and no problems. I think if you have, like look man, if you have armed community | ||
| patrol groups, you got to do a lot more than just train people and give them | ||
| guns. You let the police know like, hey here's who we are, here's what we're | ||
| doing, give us a call. We want to make sure we're taking care of things. Here's | ||
| the good thing about it. Right now we are seeing in polls, I can't | ||
| remember which polling group this was, support for Black Lives Matter through | ||
| the roof, skyrocketing. | ||
| Even among Republicans, it's way, way up. | ||
| And it's really low among Republicans. | ||
| And I'm like, this is all good. | ||
| It's all good. | ||
| Because I thought about this. | ||
| And I'm seeing all the tribalist stupidity on Twitter. | ||
| And what they're talking about is, they showed a clip of black people marching with guns, and they did this like, haha, white conservatives, look what we're doing. | ||
| And I'm like, I'm sure they're happier doing it. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| That's what they've been arguing for this whole time. | ||
| So I started thinking about it. | ||
| They were saying, you know, I'm thinking like, what is the outcome of this going to be? | ||
| They're demanding police reforms. | ||
| And I'm like, I'm down with that. | ||
| Yeah, me too. | ||
| You know, I think how it's done is important, but it can be done as a good thing. | ||
| You look at, you know, what's going on with a lot of these stories that are coming out. | ||
| I don't like how it goes to a racial place, because I grew up on the south side of Chicago, man. | ||
| I know poor people who have been affected by, you know, police misconduct or whatever. | ||
| But I think about what's coming out of this. | ||
| And you've got calls for more accountability. | ||
| I dig it. | ||
| You've got liberals buying guns like crazy. | ||
| And I'm like, you know what? | ||
| I dig it. | ||
| If people take responsibility for themselves. | ||
| Now, there is a concern. | ||
| So I'll let everybody know, I went today, I'm taking care of business to get set up, to get everything I need to get. | ||
| And I'm not gonna get too specific on what I've done so far, because my business is, that's my private security. | ||
| But I'll just say I was talking to a guy involved in the process who said he's concerned about a lot of untrained people who have been buying up guns like crazy. | ||
| Yeah, that makes sense. | ||
| So he was like, make sure you do the right thing, man. | ||
| And he gave me a bunch of advice and stuff. | ||
| And I'm like, I got it, I got it. | ||
| I hear you, bro. | ||
| I actually have done a police academy training. | ||
| So they walk you up with all the different guns and stuff. | ||
| But I'm far from an expert. | ||
| But there is a concern about that. | ||
| But I'm thinking about what he's talking about. | ||
| I think it would be actually great to see these communities have purpose, like you mentioned. | ||
| Now there's responsibility for these young people. | ||
| Now when there's problems, they have to hold their own accountable. | ||
| And I mean like people who live in their neighborhood. | ||
| I'm not talking about a race thing. | ||
| It's not like they're just going to be walking around and letting people do illegal things, things that are frowned upon by general society. | ||
| I'm just kind of putting a blanket term out there, but it's not just going to be the police that they're going to be holding accountable. | ||
| They're going to be standing there holding everyone accountable. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Yeah, it's just gonna raise the level of everyone being... Dude, dude, dude, this is great. | ||
| Yeah, I agree. | ||
| It's awesome. | ||
| This is what everybody needs. | ||
| Think about this. | ||
| Let's say you live in a neighborhood, and one day some kid is robbing a house. | ||
| And you have community policing. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| The people know who the cop is, the cop is a part of the community, or even a neighborhood watch, and they see Billy Johnson's kid robbing it. | ||
| So then they tell the neighbors, everybody knows, everybody hears, everybody gets pissed off, and they go to Billy Johnson and they're like, your kid, I caught him. | ||
| And they're like, I'll stop it, it'll never happen again. | ||
| Because now there's real concern about being ostracized by their neighbors and their community, and there's a real connection. | ||
| You also have the people engaging in Community Watch, They have responsibility to the community, too. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Imagine imagine like, you know, when we were talking about the Atlas gym, for those that aren't familiar, there's a gym nearby to where we live. | ||
| Big national story because they were trying to reopen during a lockdown. | ||
| The governor threatened them. | ||
| They came. | ||
| They were ticketing people and arrested one guy for not showing his ID. | ||
| And I'm thinking about. | ||
| They brought in police from outside the city because the local cops wouldn't, wouldn't do it. | ||
| That's really interesting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| They didn't want to be shunned by people live around. | ||
| It's like, that's the opposite of what we need. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So there are, there are challenges with like what happens when someone from one community comes to the other community and then that, well, then you treat them like normal. | ||
| I think if these people are going to take care of their own neighborhoods, more importantly, like giving purpose to people to be responsible for the upholding and defense of their community, I'm imagining what happens when You know, we see a lot of videos going around right now of looting and stuff in New York. | ||
| What would happen if these people got caught by their own neighbors? | ||
| You ever see that video? | ||
| It's hilarious of a mom catching her son at a riot. | ||
| Oh yeah, in 2017. | ||
| Yeah, where was that? | ||
| I think that was at Baltimore. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| She caught her... Was she like hitting him with her purse? | ||
| Slipper, I think. | ||
| Oh my goodness. | ||
| Like, what are you doing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's like, I'm sorry, Mom. | |
| I'm sorry, Mom. | ||
| That's the kind of connection we need. | ||
| And you know what I find interesting? | ||
| They're calling for, you know, defund the police. | ||
| And it's like, well, we kind of need the police. | ||
| We need the police. | ||
| You know, there's good police out there. | ||
| But if this is what they're going to plan on doing, we won't need as many police. | ||
| So it's kind of a win-win for them to actually mobilize and start protecting their neighborhoods. | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| Dude, this is crazy. | ||
| This is like a huge conservative-slash-libertarian victory in some regards. | ||
|
unidentified
|
In many regards. | |
| Of the shrinking of government powers. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| The writing's been bad. | ||
| The tribalism's been really bad. | ||
| Definitely. | ||
| It's really, really annoying how the tribalism is functioning through this, especially when I think one of the most, like, man, just heartbreaking things for me to watch very early on, where I'm seeing all of these conservatives, even Rush Limbaugh, being like, I'm heartbroken by watching this video of George Floyd. | ||
| And I'm like, we've done it, everyone. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| We are all united. | ||
| We're all actually united. | ||
| So let's riot and tear everything down. | ||
| Yeah, right. | ||
| We're all with everybody. | ||
| We all agree here. | ||
| And then when a lot of conservatives started pointing out, like, this writing is bad, they got attacked for it. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| And I'm like, dude, we were ready to hold hands under the rainbow, man. | ||
| That's the dream, isn't it? | ||
| There's someone out there that hates that. | ||
| They don't want us together. | ||
| They want to split us up. | ||
| Everything I'm reading is either people fighting to be like, let's stay together, or if you're not on my side you're over there and you're the enemy so let's divide further and keep us all separated yeah we don't want anyone together it's like no no no no that that is a problem and i'm seeing it too much even friends of mine are saying it's like that's the issue all these other people it's like everyone was a covid expert now they're like a civil rights expert and it's like no you you can't just | ||
| say this is the answer. There's so many different things that we need to think about, but we | ||
| all need to be accountable. These cops are being held accountable. Awesome. It's good. | ||
| Are you saying it's complicated? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| I think it's complicated. | ||
| I think I know what you really mean. | ||
| Did I just say a Tim? | ||
| But this is the point. | ||
| I think there's a famous quote about the stupid people find simplicity and the intelligent people find the complexity or something like that. | ||
| But I think what you're really saying is that there is some kind of force driving people apart, making us hate each other. | ||
| China. | ||
| China, China. | ||
| That's obviously China. | ||
| I have seen enough random things. | ||
| Some people have posted some random stuff about it and it's like, it's not that far-fetched. | ||
| Who has a lot to gain? | ||
| I'm kidding, by the way. | ||
| I know you were joking, but I'm gonna go ahead and say the conspiracy of it. | ||
| It's like, we were already intense, you know, like, we weren't at war, but like, Trade war. | ||
| It's tense. | ||
| Yeah, we're in a trade war with them, yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| But, I mean, man, they have some issues with us and they've already, they're making fun of us. | ||
| They're straight up going on their news, making fun of us. | ||
| And it's like, we were already worried with, you know, a war with China. | ||
| It's like, why wouldn't they want us to destroy each other and be separated and fight each other until we're like, you know, a mess? | ||
| And then they push the button. | ||
| Look what COVID did. | ||
| Right. Our aircraft carriers get infected, have to be cleaned out and all this stuff. | ||
| Yeah. And they want us off base. So it's been, it's been, look man, it's been decades of | ||
| favorable treatment for China. All our politicians and leaders have been doing all these really | ||
| great and beautiful nice things for them. And now all of a sudden Trump's pulling the | ||
| rug out from under them. Yeah. Trump's like, no more China. | ||
| No, no, no, no, no. | ||
| America. | ||
| America first. | ||
| Well, let's save, let's put a tag on it. | ||
| Yeah, we're spinning. | ||
| We're spiraling. | ||
| We're spiraling. | ||
| I want to keep it to... I mean, as I said, it's complicated. | ||
| It isn't that complicated. | ||
| We got to keep it to guns. | ||
| We got to keep it to guns. | ||
| So, check this out. | ||
| You guys may have seen this story. | ||
| Spicy. | ||
| It is. | ||
| The Second Amendment has never been stronger. | ||
| I think we're gonna see the crushing of a lot of these laws. | ||
| Maybe I'm being a bit... I don't know. | ||
| Hyperbolic? | ||
| No, optimistic. | ||
| In like, what's to come. | ||
| Tim, being hyperbolic? | ||
| What? | ||
| No. | ||
| But look at this story. | ||
| Florida Sheriff to looters, I'm advising armed homeowners to blow you back out of their house with their guns. | ||
| You want to know something funny? | ||
| Well, technically he was advising anyone who wanted to go into those neighborhoods. | ||
| He was warning them. | ||
| There's this tweet, and I love it, and it's a picture of three men on a rooftop with AR-15s, and it says, heads up, there's men armed with guns on the top of these roofs, don't go to this place. | ||
| And I was like, you've just proven the point of why they're on the roof with guns. | ||
| That's the whole point. | ||
| The protesters were marching around. | ||
| These guys went up on the roof to protect the business. | ||
| And then the social media says, don't go that way. | ||
| Don't go that way. | ||
| They have guns. | ||
| It's like, there you go. | ||
| Point proven. | ||
| So now what? | ||
| Once there's guns everywhere. | ||
| Protests will be peaceful. | ||
| I think there is a good point to be made in the fact that accidental deaths will probably go up. | ||
| You know, like the guy was telling me earlier, he's really scared about a bunch of untrained people now getting armed. | ||
| Yep, agreed. | ||
| It's fair, man. | ||
| Let me tell you this story that I read once. | ||
| So I actually went to this gun rights thing in Chicago a long time ago. | ||
| There's a very famous woman who told the story about how... I'm gonna miss the details, but I know all you guys probably know this one. | ||
| She was apparently... Texas passed a law saying you couldn't bring a gun or something into a restaurant or something like this. | ||
| She lives in her car. | ||
| She goes in and she was eating dinner or something when a shooting happened and she had... In the restaurant? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so she was like, my gun is right there. | ||
| I can't do anything about it. | ||
| So, apparently she's a very famous advocate, you know, campaigner and everything. | ||
| And I was in Chicago skating around or something, and I can't remember exactly why. | ||
| It was at the Thompson Center, I think it was. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Is that what it's called? | ||
| I think it is. | ||
| My friend worked there, and so I was hanging out, and I saw it, and I thought it was an interesting story. | ||
| I didn't really think much of it, but someone there told me the story about the concerns of rapid escalation, and they told me a story about there was a car accident, a fender bender. | ||
| Somebody accidentally rear-ended somebody else. | ||
| Apparently the guy who got rear-ended was livid! | ||
| Gets out of his car, freaking out, like, you moron, what are you doing? | ||
| Yelling. | ||
| And he's strapped. | ||
| He's got his gun on his holster. | ||
| So the guy getting out of his car, who rear-ended him, was like, anxiety super high. | ||
| Flustered because this guy's yelling. | ||
| He sees the guy get out with his gun, and he puts his hand down by his hip and puts his hand up saying, stop. | ||
| Because this guy's freaking out. | ||
| When the guy in front sees him put his hand near his hip, the other guy reaches for his. | ||
| Then the guy in the back thought he was drawing for it, so he pulls his out, and they both pulled him out and started shooting at each other. | ||
| Oh my gosh. | ||
| It's a story someone told me. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| They told me it was the fear of- Well, true or not, though, that definitely shows, you know, escalation in its truest form. | ||
| But this person was- When it's emotional, you know, red-eyed, you can't see anything except anger. | ||
| We're humans, you know? | ||
| That can happen to anyone. | ||
| Even the most peaceful person, something can trigger that, you know? | ||
| We don't know until we're there. | ||
| So this person was telling me this was apparently like a part of the rally. | ||
| They were like pro 2A and they were just saying like, that's why training and being smart. | ||
| Well, the point they're bringing up is, I guess like the gist of what they were getting at was we're having a conversation about these things happen. | ||
| You know, you can't run from them. | ||
| You can't try and stop every single person because sometimes these things happen. | ||
| And you know, we recognize these things happen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Imagine you've got, you know, a hole springing in the bottom of a ship. | ||
| It's like, well, yeah, sometimes that happens. | ||
| You patch it up. | ||
| You can't literally stop it from happening, so it never happens. | ||
| Imagine you have a boat and you keep reinforcing the hole and you've got 87 layers. | ||
| You're like, now it will never spring a leak. | ||
| And then you sink. | ||
| I'll put it this way, there was a story about a mass shooting in Europe and the response from the country, I can't remember which was, it might have been Denmark, they were just like, sad. | ||
| Moving on. | ||
| What are you going to do? | ||
| In America, something bad happens, we immediately say, we need a new law. | ||
| Do we really though? We need a new law! And it's like, but it was already illegal. Yeah. So then | ||
| they try and ban cosmetics and stuff and it starts getting out of hand and now it's like, you know, | ||
| I was talking to somebody who's from Europe telling me that I should get a gun and I was like, you | ||
| know, I'm taking care of everything and they said to get an AR-15 and I was like, well yeah, but | ||
| there's like a bunch of laws specifically targeting that weapon and I was like, I think there are | ||
| variants that are functionally equivalent that I can look into with different names that have | ||
| bypassed these weird cosmetic assault laws or whatever. | ||
| And then they asked me about like getting a machine gun or something. | ||
| And I was like, those are completely illegal. | ||
| And they've been illegal since the 80s. | ||
| And I was like, look, you know, it is a weird, circuitous, complicated, When I'm filling out these forms, I'm like, what is this? | ||
| What is that? | ||
| What is this? | ||
| There's all these weird things on it. | ||
| New Jersey doesn't make it easy. | ||
| And it still takes a long time. | ||
| But I was explaining to them, a lot of Europeans think that in the US, everyone's got a belt fed, World War II style, crazy machine gun. | ||
| I mean, there's people out there that probably have them that we don't know about. | ||
| Well, for sure, but not everyone. | ||
| Check the story out. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| This is the past three months? | ||
| Six million guns sold in three days. | ||
| No, three months. | ||
| In three months. | ||
| Sorry. | ||
| I was like, whoa, that's a lot. | ||
| That'd be very different. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That'd be worrying. | |
| I'm like, wait, is this the same article that we're reading here? | ||
| Six million guns sold in three months. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| I was zoning out on that one. | ||
| Yeah, it was like 1.7 million sold in May, which is a record apparently. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| And 40% are first-time gun buyers. | ||
| Forty percent. | ||
| Forty percent. | ||
| That's a lot of armed liberals. | ||
| I'm almost afraid. | ||
| Now listen, let's talk about the scary part. | ||
| What's the scary part? | ||
| I mean, we're dealing with the cusp of a civil war. | ||
| There's the possibility that we de-escalate, but all we've ever seen is escalation and no sign that anyone wants to give up. | ||
| Like Nancy Pelosi. | ||
| She's out marching in the protest right now, apparently. | ||
| But what? | ||
| That's ridiculous. | ||
| Our businesses can't reopen. | ||
| No, it's a lie. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| It's all the rules. | ||
| They're just taking advantage. | ||
| But that's another subject at hand. | ||
| All right. | ||
| We're going to we're going to go into the covid side of things later. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| But now before we move on, I want to talk about this this this Black Lives Matter being matter being armed, because I feel like, you know, no one's really talking about David Dorn, you know, and he got shot and just protecting His own business or he worked there. I think right or | ||
| something like that So it's his friend's business. We see all these businesses | ||
| being destroyed that are actually, you know black members of the community that | ||
| Their lives are being ruined now because of people that are marching for George Floyd if | ||
| If they did what what they're planning on doing, you know, and they had these armed | ||
| Community militias essentially that are protecting their own communities a lot of that wouldn't happen anymore, you | ||
| know I have to wonder about, you know, they often say, who benefits? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's like a lot of conspiracy theorists. | ||
| Who benefits from this? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Key Bono. | ||
| Alex Jones liked to say it. | ||
| Or I don't know if he still does. | ||
| I don't watch his show. | ||
| But it's a good question because you look at what's happening with all these riots and you have the rapper, I think his name is like Dream or something. | ||
| You've got Killer Mike. | ||
| You got people in Atlanta, which is like majority black businesses. | ||
| I don't think it's majority, but a very, very large proportion relative to other parts of the country. | ||
| And they're going around, they're burning things and burning things down. | ||
| And who benefits the most from all the destruction in black communities? | ||
| This is stopping the transfer of generational wealth. | ||
| It's like you've got people who have been, you know, historically come from oppression. | ||
| And now through the civil rights and everything, we've made tremendous strides to solving a lot of these issues. | ||
| And now we have, you know, the first black president, Barack Obama. | ||
| A lot of great things have come. | ||
| A lot of great things are to come. | ||
| There's a lot of things we've got to solve. | ||
| One of the things that's going to help with equality is the transfer of generational wealth. | ||
| But if you look at these communities, you can see these riots break out destroying their businesses and their livelihoods. | ||
| And then it's crazy because when that rapper came out and said, dude, why are you destroying our businesses? | ||
| They attacked him for it. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Who benefits, man? | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| That doesn't make any sense to me. | ||
| I have to imagine. | ||
| Who are they fighting then, you know? | ||
| I have to imagine every regular American would love the idea of any other American, regardless of race, seeing prosperity and living the American dream. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I know I do. | ||
| But that's how we got to this point, from people finally being like, you know, do your thing. | ||
| Like that woman who was yelling in the streets, like, yeah, I'm black and I'm not oppressed. | ||
| I live in a country where if you have the ability to do something, you go out and do it. | ||
| And I'm proof of that. | ||
| And then that white girl is like, no, you're oppressed. | ||
| And she's like, no, I'm not oppressed. | ||
| I'm telling you right now, I'm not oppressed. | ||
| Dude. | ||
| I was like, wow, that's a boss right there. | ||
| I mean, look at Candace Owens, for instance. | ||
| Successful. | ||
| I'm assuming she's well off. | ||
| Money wise. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And she says similar things. | ||
| You know, man, I get, I call, um, it's like Asian and Asian mixed people are Heisenberg's uncertainty people of color. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Or Schrodinger's people of color. | ||
| So I first called it Schrodinger's people of color because you're either, you are or you aren't depending on which opinion you take. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And then someone said, no, it's the Heisenberg uncertainty. | ||
| So basically what happens is for me, if I say to one of these people, I agree with you, Then all of a sudden now they respect my family and, you know, my history and everything. | ||
| If I say, I'm not oppressed, I disagree with you, they say, Oh, because you're white. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So that woman, it just becomes a weird mind kind of dissonance, mind break thing. | ||
| There's a, there's a really crazy video where there's a black cop, he's older and there's like a 20 year old white college girl who she says, why are you supporting white supremacy or something? | ||
| He's like, what? | ||
| I'm a cop. | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| And she said, the police are racist. | ||
| And he was like, what? | ||
| And she was like, yes, you're being oppressed. | ||
| And he was like, I grew up during civil rights. | ||
| What are you talking about, little white girl? | ||
| But that's what they believe. | ||
| That's the narrative. | ||
| They can't look at anything else because then their beliefs will change. | ||
| You know, it's funny. | ||
| I see, like, when you think of millennial, you know, what does a millennial look like to you? | ||
| You know, think about that. | ||
| So that's fine. | ||
| Hold that in your head. | ||
| You don't have to answer it. | ||
| But then you think about what, like, why we're complaining about millennials. | ||
| It's like the people that feel entitled. | ||
| that feel like they are owed stuff and they don't have to work for it, you know? | ||
| That's really familiar right now because a lot of people are, it feels like it's the same argument right now. | ||
| Like, why can't we just get stuff for free? | ||
| You know, it's like, and it's not a race issue. | ||
| That's the, that's the problem. | ||
| It's not, it's not, it has nothing to do with race. | ||
| It's all about, you know, the society has just fed it to us that we are owed stuff. | ||
| And it's like, we're not, you got to go out and get it. | ||
| You got to earn it. | ||
| I have seven words for you. | ||
| Go on, what is it? | ||

Mm-hmm. | |

Uh-huh. | |
| One of us. | ||
| Go on. | ||
|

|
Yes, okay. | |
| Ah, okay. | ||
| It all makes sense now. | ||
| I understood the last three words, I'll be honest. | ||
| Do you know the reference to that? | ||
| No, I have no idea what that means. | ||
| I don't know the actual name of the film, but it's basically like a bunch of circus freaks. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And a woman sits down with them and they go, gooblegobble, gooblegobble, one of us, one of us. | ||
| Look at this video. | ||
| Oh my gosh. | ||
| No, but this is relevant to what we're talking about. | ||
| Okay, yeah, let's see it. | ||
| You may have seen this video. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, this. | |
| God, this video. | ||
| Where all of these people- No. | ||
| Bro, this is praying. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| I'm gonna play this for you guys. | ||
| And you're gonna be unhappy that I did, but it's important that you hear it, so I hope you're ready. | ||

Anti-blackness or violence. | |
| About racism, anti-blackness or violence. | ||
| I will use my voice in the most uplifting way possible. | ||
| I will use my voice in the most uplifting way possible. | ||
| And do everything in my power to educate my community. | ||
| I will love my black neighbors the same as my white ones. | ||
| You know, our neighbors are black. | ||
| And they're so nice. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| Our other neighbors, they're not. | ||
| And they're also nice. | ||
| I have friends that are all sorts of races. | ||
| And they're all nice people. | ||
| Like, I just don't, he could have just spoke all these words and everyone had been like, word. | ||
| All right, makes sense. | ||
| The point I bring up is, what you just watched was a cult building exercise. | ||
| Seems like it. | ||
| I'm not exaggerating. | ||
| No, I agree. | ||
| It's literally what many cults will do to reinforce ideas is to make you repeat it. | ||
| So, I grew up with a lot of hacker friends. | ||
| I used to program some stuff and I would make little video games. | ||
| Very minor, but ultimately got more into the social engineering side of the hacker community, which they call human hacking. | ||
| I ultimately ended up working for non-profits where I would Hey, come over here and sign up for Greenpeace, because understanding how the human mind works, I was one of the best in the nation for numerous non-profits signing up new members. | ||
| Ultimately quit because I realized they were lying about it so much, like so much of this stuff is so evil, and I thought I was gonna do good, right? | ||
| But I see this stuff, and getting someone to repeat something is an anchoring technique. | ||
| It's like you make them believe it by saying it. | ||
| Even if you tell them, like, repeat after me. | ||
| I said, you know, X, Y, and Z. It anchors it, you know, it really helps reinforce that. | ||
| These are all white people. | ||
| Worst of all, they're all people who are white, who are supposedly anti-racist. | ||
| The reason I bring this up, in the context of what we were just talking about before, is that these people are impossible to talk to, because they've been indoctrinated, and you can't really break them out. | ||
| I guess it's where the red pill meme kind of makes sense. | ||
| You wake up to reality because you're one of these people sitting there with your, listen man, I sent this video to my friends, and I was like, with no comment. | ||
| I just, here's the video. | ||
| And I got crazy defense of it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Huh. | |
| Oh no, they're just, they're just, you know, it's the people's mic, you know? | ||
| You know what the people's mic is? | ||
| Where you say something, they respond? | ||
| That way everyone can hear it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Because everyone says it. | ||
| And I'm like, no, that's when you're giving out information. | ||
| This is like describing internal action. | ||
| Oh, well, I mean, you know, tons of groups do this. | ||
| And I'm like, no. | ||
| This is a bunch of people that already believe all this stuff. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So them sitting in a circle telling each other how not racist they are, who is that helping? | ||
| It's being spread around and now everyone's like, whoa, that's a cult. | ||
| That's very culty. | ||
| I'm glad they did it. | ||
| Or the blackout thing on yesterday's Instagram. | ||
| Everyone who follows everybody, it's already the circles. | ||
| The circles are already kind of closed. | ||
| So they're all just showing each other how virtuous they are. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Like, look at this. | ||
| Look how anti-racist I am. | ||
| One of us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
One of us. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Gooble gobble. | ||
| Gooble gobble. | ||
| My eyes were rolling so hard when I saw all of the blackout squares that I swear I could have generated a ton of electricity if I hooked it up to a cable. | ||
| My eyes were spinning like crazy. | ||
| You mean hooked it up to the beanie? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| I'm scrolling through and I'm like... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mmm. | |
| These people are all morons. | ||
| You know, uh, you posted it. | ||
| I think the Ralph Wiggum one. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh yeah. | |
| That's the best one. | ||
| I'm helping. | ||
| I know. | ||
| I saw that. | ||
| You saw it? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I saw her. | ||
| I'm helping. | ||
| And so I posted this. | ||
| I'm not joining your cult. | ||
| And I sent that to some friends and they were like trying to defend it. | ||
| And I, and I was like, just stop. | ||
| Just stop. | ||
| You know, I know, you know, you don't want to let it go. | ||
| You don't want to admit it. | ||
| Just stop. | ||
| Some people though, my friends, they were like, whoa, what's going on? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I was like, you ever stop and think twice about what you're posting? | ||
| And they're like, I don't know, man. | ||
| Cause some people are just sitting there and they see their friend do it and they do it. | ||
| I don't know, I'm just trying to fit in, fit into the crowd. | ||
| So the reason I brought this up is because when I try talking to these people, we were mentioning Schrodinger's POC and stuff, I was talking to a friend and they're defending all of this stuff, and so I sent them an article where Antifa threatened to burn down a theater for an event I was organizing last year. | ||
| The headliner was Daryl Davis. | ||
| That's amazing. | ||
| black jazz musician who deradicalizes white supremacists. | ||
| He did a lot too, right? | ||
| Yeah, over 200. | ||
| That's amazing. | ||
| His stories are amazing. | ||
| What a dude. | ||
| But you know what's crazy? | ||
| He's a regular guy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And that's his thing. | ||
| One of the stories he told was that he met a white supremacist and it turns out the white | ||
| supremacist was a big rock and roll fan. | ||
| And he as a jazz musician had access to like some famous car or something. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| And he was like, you want to see the car? | ||
| And the guy was like, what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's so cool. | |
| And he's like, yeah, I can, I can bring, I can show you the actual car. | ||
| I can't remember the exact story. | ||
| And all of a sudden this white supremacist had like this, this like snap in his mind where he was like, this guy's cool. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like he's giving me like, it's a dream come true. | ||
| You like the same things I do? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| I didn't think that was possible. | ||
| You have different color skin. | ||
| Yeah, what the heck? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| So here's what I'm talking about. | ||
| I send them the article. | ||
| And I said, because, you know, they had been talking about Antifa and Trump and it's like exaggerated and all the stuff. | ||
| And I said, well, here's what happened to me. | ||
| And instead of saying, damn, bro, I'm sorry that happened to you. | ||
| Like, what was it all about? | ||
| It was a friend of mine. | ||
| You know what she said to me? | ||
| What? | ||
| Why didn't you invite more black people? | ||
| Are you serious? | ||
| Not even kidding. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I was like, what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Someone threatened to burn down the theater where I was putting an event on. | ||
| Why are you asking me to justify what I did or didn't do? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I was like, you're victim blaming. | |
| Did you tell her that? | ||
| Yeah, I did. | ||
| Good, I'm glad. | ||
| But it doesn't matter. | ||
| I don't care for the idea. | ||
| It's just like, I don't understand how it is that when I tell you that white people, okay, I don't care that they're white, but it is part of like what you believe, threatened to burn a theater to the ground because they didn't want, the event was put on by a Jewish man, an immigrant. | ||
| A Mexican man and a Korean white mixed-race person, all of us. | ||
| There's no white, blue-eyed, blonde-haired person organizing this. | ||
| And it was white people threatening it. | ||
| And their first reaction is, justify why you did wrong. | ||
| And I was like, this is crazy. | ||
| Our headliner was a black man. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But there should have been more. | ||
| I'm like, it was like disproportionately people of color, even organized people. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And the event was called ending, it was called like ending violence, racism and authoritarianism. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And they threatened to burn the theater down. | ||
| Mind-blowing. | ||
| I was like, we literally tried putting an event where we're going to bring, you know, conservative figures, libertarian figures, even progressives to sit down and talk about these issues. | ||
| That's it though. | ||
| They, the left doesn't want us together. | ||
| These extremists. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| The far left. | ||
| Right, the gooblegobble people are paying attention. | ||
| The gooblegobble? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| Right, the gooblegobble blah blah blah. | ||
| Pretty much, yeah. | ||
| Same thing. | ||
| They're not paying attention at all. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| So they only get their cues from their priests of their new religion. | ||
| So it's funny that you mention that because I was actually listening to them and it reminded me a lot Some people really aren't gonna like this but it actually reminded me a lot of being in church because when you have a liturgy the pastor reads and then the congregation repeats back so you'll read along in your bulletin or in your hymnal and you communicate with each other that way and that is exactly what that sounded like to me. | ||
| Do they know that they've adopted a religion? | ||
| Or a cult. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I mean, what is the difference? | ||
| I think it is a cult. | ||
| Sorry, I'll take it. | ||
| It is a cult. | ||
| Religion is a form of a cult. | ||
| What? | ||
| I mean, it's fine line, I guess. | ||
| Fine lines, and there's a scale, for sure. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But the reason I say this is a cult and not a religion is, of course, cults try to use the essence of religion. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Because it's worked forever. | ||
| Let's talk about the Abrahamic religions. | ||
| They actually got books. | ||
| They got rules. | ||
| They have priests who try their best to interpret, and they're... it's not perfect. | ||
| It's not perfect at all. | ||
| But for the most part, you could actually look at the Ten Commandments and be like, I have a list of things you're not supposed to do. | ||
| And I see why. | ||
| And you look at these people? | ||
| They have no rules. | ||
| There's literally nothing you can do. | ||
| And that's why I say it's a cult. | ||
| Because all you can do is adhere to the power structure and those who say they're in charge. | ||
| Now, of course, that's true for many religions. | ||
| There are people who exploit religions. | ||
| But I look at someone like Chris Pratt, apparently, is like a legit Boy Scout. | ||
| Who really does walk the walk and he lives like a good Christian and all that stuff. | ||
| And there are people that are good and bad people no matter what. | ||
| I agree with that. | ||
| I grew up Catholic for the first, you know, I think sixth grade was the first grade I left Catholic school and went to public school. | ||
| And there's just people, man. | ||
| There are some people who try to live right and do good by what their teachings are, and there are some people who pretend to and exploit it. | ||
| The problem with this is it's a bunch of people not paying attention and a bunch of people exploiting it. | ||
| The people who aren't paying attention, don't study, don't read anything, they're not telling you, you know, we want to do right by these people for these reasons. | ||
| I believe the term is sheeple. | ||
| Yep, that's a good term. | ||
| They're the ones watching mainstream media, believing everything that it says. | ||
| Oh, that's what's going on? | ||
| Wow. | ||
| I believe everything. | ||
| It's not even so much that. | ||
| I think it's that they know who their priests are, and as long as they heard it from them, they'll stick to it. | ||
| And a lot of their priests are brands and marketing companies and weird things like that. | ||
| Good point. | ||
| So here's where I would separate the two, because I gotta admit, I'm no fan of organized religion. | ||
| I'm not practicing, I'm not part of it, I have my own spiritual beliefs or whatever. | ||
| But this is exploitation for political power, which we've seen in the past from religions. | ||
| And so maybe we could argue this is the emergence of something which will eventually become you know, a hard book that you must, you know, follow by. | ||
| At the time being, it's a cult. | ||
| I just, you know, I remember talking to some early, some friends who weren't paying attention | ||
| and I said, what they're doing is cult-like behavior. | ||
| And they, no, no, no. | ||
| And then like a year later, they're like, you were right. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's a cult. | ||
| That's pretty cult-y. | ||
| They go around beating people. | ||
| Not all of them. | ||
| The armed ideologues of the group. | ||
| And you can argue the same thing about religion. | ||
| Okay, go for it. | ||
| You wanna argue the same thing about religion, bro, that means you are all the things you're complaining about. | ||
| So if you wanna argue that, that's fine. | ||
| But the point I was getting at in the beginning when I brought this up was that trying to talk to somebody to explain to them what's really going on in the world, their blinders are on. | ||
| Completely just shut out from everything. | ||
| Yeah, I got here and you were like, take those blinders off, Adam! | ||
| I was like, no! | ||
| No! | ||
| Oh, now I see everything. | ||
| I wish I didn't. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But I don't even think it was really... I know I'm just joking. | |
| Now there are some people I know who like, you know, man, some of my friends who have gone Off the rails, man. | ||
| That's so hard to see, dude. | ||
| I know, you told me certain stories. | ||
| We did, we did some segments about it. | ||
| But there are some people I see them posting and it's like, these are people, it's like the gooblegobble people I think are, the reason I say that is because they're not thinking about what they're doing, what they're following, why they're following it. | ||
| They just like being a part of the winning team, I guess. | ||
| It's mob mentality, really, it's all it is. | ||
| So when you try to talk to them and say like, here's a piece of evidence, their brain shatters. | ||
| It's like all of a sudden, this thing that made them feel good and welcome and accepted is busted, is broken. | ||
| They get angry about it. | ||
| It's very, very religious. | ||
| It really is. | ||
| And I'll tell you the one big difference. | ||
| We can argue everything about historical religions with actual texts and history and everything. | ||
| That's probably not still a good enough argument, but I'll tell you this. | ||
| If you are a Christian, if you are a Muslim, if you are Jewish, if you are, I don't know, Confucian? | ||
| Is that something? | ||
| And you were violent and trying to force your ideology on other people, we got problems. | ||
| Agreed. | ||
| If you are any one of those religions and you want to chill and have a conversation about it, come on over. | ||
| I had somebody knock on the door. | ||
| This is really funny. | ||
| It was a group of, I think it was Jehovah's Witnesses. | ||
| No, I think it wasn't. | ||
| Do they wear the suits? | ||
| No, no, it was little girls. | ||
| I don't know what religion it was, but it was like teenage girls, maybe like 14 or 15, knocked on the door and I saw outside on my street a bunch of people with Bibles. | ||
| And I'm like, okay, what is this? | ||
| And they asked me if I had time to talk about, you know, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. | ||
| It wasn't Soy Jesus? | ||
| It wasn't Soy Jesus, unfortunately. | ||
| And I said, um, a little bit, uh, and they asked me if I was Christian or anything. | ||
| I said, I wasn't. | ||
| And to be honest, I didn't want to waste their time because I'm not interested, but I will pass along a compliment that one of the most important, uh, tenets of our, uh, constitutional democratic republic, I'm going to be very specific because I know people get Freedom of religion. | ||
| No, no, it's the presumption of innocence is a foundation of our country. | ||
| And it's rooted in the story of, I believe it's Sodom and Gomorrah. | ||
| And I don't know, it's been a while, but you know this probably way better than I do about if there's but one righteous person, I will spare the city. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What is that story? | ||
| Tell the story. | ||
| So with Sodom and Gomorrah, what was basically done is the number of men who needed to be righteous for the city to be saved was negotiated from a high number to a very, very, very low number. | ||
| And if you know anything about the story, there was not even that number of good people in the city, so. | ||
| Yeah, so the cities got purged. | ||
| Yeah, they got a little bit purged. | ||
| But the gist of the story was basically, you know, God's all like, I'm gonna blow this place up. | ||
| And the dude's like, but what if there's like 50 good people? | ||
| A hundred, yeah. | ||
| A hundred good people. | ||
| And he was like, okay, well, if there's a hundred, I won't do it. | ||
| Well, what if there was 50 good people? | ||
| God's like, okay, if we're 50, I wouldn't. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And eventually it goes down to one. | ||
| If there's one innocent person, I will not destroy it. | ||
| And then like, I guess what was like the good people got saved or something? | ||
| So they fled the city. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then God was like, boom! | |
| And I think it was 10. | ||
| I don't think it was just one. | ||
| But it was very, very few. | ||
| But yeah, so in that regard, think about that story and how, you know, from that, you have the story of the righteous people must be saved. | ||
| You cannot even kill. | ||
| Like there's a whole city that needs to be punished and it's full of sin. | ||
| But if there's one innocent person, you can't do it. | ||
| We got Blackstone's formulation. | ||
| It is better that ten guilty persons escape than one innocent suffer. | ||
| We got Ben Franklin taking it up, saying a hundred guilty persons escape than one innocent suffer. | ||
| And I stand here proud as those, you know, those ideas have passed through our legal system and need to be protected at all cost. | ||
| And it's got a story in the Bible. | ||
| So I look at that and I'm like, those are good things that protect the innocent. | ||
| You look at what these people are doing and they're chanting Google Gobble over and over again, and there's nothing going on in those ideas. | ||
| But also, a really important point someone mentioned in the comments, which really draws that line between the two, is separation of church and state. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I believe that. | ||
| We can absolutely see and fight when certain ideological views based on religion try to permeate in our government, and because our government was for the longest time comprised of people who are overwhelmingly Christian, it did pass through. | ||
| And over time, that's actually changed. | ||
| Morality laws have gone away, you know, clothing laws have changed, and that's because we have this separation. | ||
| But this is not legally defined as a religion, because it's an ideology, which means it is leaking into our government, and it is now affecting our laws, and things make no sense anymore. | ||
| Like the multi-gender thing. | ||
| All of a sudden now in New York, you can be literally any gender, you can make it up. | ||
| Or you can be an animal. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, technically yes. | ||
| In New York, they define gender identity as self-expression. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Yup. | ||
| That's it? | ||
| Because how else do you define it? | ||
| What's the difference between a woman who's gender neutral, who's got a short haircut, and is wearing a sleeveless black t-shirt and jeans, and a woman who is self-identified as female, knows nothing of any of this stuff, and is wearing the exact same clothes and the same haircut? | ||
| You wouldn't be able to tell the difference, unless they told you, because they self-identify. | ||
| So the law comes out. | ||
| So this is what you end up getting when there's no separation between the gooblegobble people and the government. | ||
| You end up with the changing of words and definitions, which alter the laws overnight. | ||
| Well, thankfully this video isn't from like a government faction of some sort. | ||
| It's just a bunch of people showing up to show how their support in this way. | ||
| But this ideology is already in government. | ||
| Like I remember I was at like a Wendy's in Pennsylvania or something. | ||
| And on the wall, like when you walk on the left was like their statement of like equal rights and all that. | ||
| And it included all of this gender ideology and other stuff. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I'm like, That's just weird. | |
| I get it, that we don't really have to worry about it. | ||
| It's a fair point to say, there's rarely, if ever, a dude walking in a woman's bathroom, dressed as a woman, trying to pretend to be trans or something. | ||
| If a dude really wanted to go in, they just do it. | ||
| There's other ways that guys can... That's a good point. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I think it's a silly argument when they're like, oh no, what if men do these things? | ||
| Well, what if they do them now? | ||
| I mean, whatever. | ||
| But the issue is... They probably do do them. | ||
| They do, and they've probably always done it. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| The issue is legal protections, like school programs for women and sports programs for, I should say females, for biological females. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So this is where the civil rights are being destroyed by this ideology. | ||
| So I'll tell you straight up, man... And women's rights also. | ||
| Yeah, seriously. | ||
| That's what I mean. | ||
| But it's civil rights as a whole. | ||
| You're right, yeah. | ||
| If you can identify as anything you want, then you can be transracial. | ||
| And there are people who are actively doing this. | ||
| And there was, what was it, Brown University allows you to identify as POC if you'd like? | ||
| I think so, yeah. | ||
| I think it was Brown. | ||
| It's absolutely nuts. | ||
| It's like you just fill in a form like, I am a POC. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| And then you can ask for the benefits that come along with it. | ||
| And I'm like, well then, it's ridiculous. | ||
| What did people fight for? | ||
| Seriously. | ||
| I guess the issue is because, um, now you're basically taking away the protections by opening up to everybody. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So I don't know how you solve for that. | ||
| I guess you got to create a special, special programs for certain individuals or, or it can't be done. | ||
| There's no, there's no point at which you can rest and say we've accomplished civil rights because it's always changing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, so we heard about the civil, the slippery slope argument from conservatives 20 years ago. | ||
| Like if, oh, if we enact gay marriage, this is what comes next. | ||
| Some of these things have come next. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I mostly don't care about a lot of these things. | ||
| Like if somebody wants to use the bathroom, it was like, or if they want to identify as a deer, like, okay. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| Don't, don't power trip. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| But there, there, there, there is a fair point about the slippery slope that's come, you know, 20 years ago and it's still here today. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Is about like, well, we have to create a new sporting division for deer. | ||
| Probably. | ||
| If they want to identify as a deer and compete in sports, then yeah, I don't see why not. | ||
| And they take like, you know, deer hormones or something? | ||
| Deer jump really well, so. | ||
| What about the tiger person? | ||
| Remember the tiger person? | ||
| That got surgically altered to look like a tiger? | ||
| No, I must have missed that. | ||
| So, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| That was back when I had my blinders on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| Must have missed it. | ||
| This is a famous TV show personality and like oh, I'm well-known figure | ||
| I don't know mouth split got face tattoos of tiger and got fake whiskers put in and | ||
| I believe was it was it was a transgender trans species? | ||
| She tiger Wow not exaggerating at all Okay, so so do we do we recognize I have to see this? Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, look it up Yeah, so I mean I mean this with with the utmost respect no | ||
| disrespect. These are legitimate questions. I'm trying to ask | ||
| I'm not trying to be mean anybody. I legitimately am curious if other kin will become | ||
| protected under the law because if the law in New York says self-expression is | ||
| Part of the definition of gender identity then if your self-expression is that you are a you know, dragon lord named as Entheon | ||
| That's pretty cool. Actually That sounds good. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| I mean, you know, you want to be Dragon Lord and you get like, you know, you wear a wingsuit and you have a scepter and a helmet and you walk around saying you are Xentheon, the human form of the Dragonborn. | ||
| And that's your name. | ||
| To what extent do I have to partake? | ||
| I think it's... I half expected a Skyrim shout. | ||
| FUS! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You walk into Starbucks. | ||
| What can I get you for? | ||
| What can I get you, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
FUS RO! | |
| And then the guy's like, uh... | ||
| The cup just goes flying off. | ||
| Are you implying the other kid actually has the shout powers? | ||
| No, no, but um... | ||
| Dragonkin, yes, maybe. | ||
| Dragonborn. | ||
| Dragonborn. Hasn't been proven yet, but maybe. | ||
| So, I think it was Jordan Peterson who said, to what extent do I have to entertain your... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What did he call it? | ||
| He didn't call it a fantasy, he was very nice, very accommodating, but he's like, where does my right to call it like I see it end? | ||
| Yeah, so if we say, yeah, yeah, basically bordering on freedom of speech, like, where does that end? | ||
| Well, that was his point. | ||
| Because that's what it is. | ||
| It is murky, yeah, it really is. | ||
| Legitimate question, because the argument, and I've heard the answers and I'll give them to you, the first question is, if you want to identify as something else, and right now transgender is the thing, they say, well that literally exists within you, the DNA for this, it's part of being human. | ||
| Right, but we're also, we're related to every animal if you trace it back far enough. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're related to a banana. | |
| Funny you bring that up, Adam. | ||
| I identify as a banana. | ||
| Well, so this is the other argument, right? | ||
| So the argument, the response is, you know, when you say, why would I have to entertain your, you know, identity? | ||
| You know, why can't I call you what I want? | ||
| And they say, it's respectful. | ||
| And then they argue, the next argument was transracialism. | ||
| Well, the people who are transracial are asking for the exact same thing. | ||
| They say, oh, well, but they're not really that race. | ||
| Wait, so that woman who was the leader of that organization, turns out she wasn't actually black? | ||
| Well, actually, she identified as black, which is actually very true. | ||
| That's what she does. | ||
| That's not what she says. | ||
| She's transracial. | ||
| I was actually making a joke. | ||
| And if anyone can be a POC, then... | ||
|
unidentified
|
What do we do? | |
| Honestly, it's like getting rid of minorities. | ||
| I don't see that as an issue. | ||
| I think we're all humans anyway, so it's like, alright, I'm kind of with it. | ||
| This is the weird thing that happens then. | ||
| If you're a social liberal who thinks there really are things we can do to benefit people, like marginalized classes or whatever, you legitimately think so, there's a light approach to it. | ||
| What's the solution? | ||
| Class-based issues seems to be the best solution. | ||
| It's helping with education and with investments and helping generational wealth and things like that. | ||
| If you want to destroy civil rights, what do you do? | ||
| Make sure everyone has access to every program for every marginalized group. | ||
| And because, what is it saying? | ||
| When everyone's special, no one will be. | ||
| No one is special, yeah. | ||
| And that's what's happening. | ||
| So that's why, it brings me back to the first segment we did about Black Lives Matter. | ||
| Who benefits the most from everything that's happening? | ||
| I gotta be honest, it's not the left. | ||
| I mean, if the left's really, their goal is ultra-traditional, you know, militaristic government and the removal of civil rights law, it's like, keep going, man. | ||
| That's not what I'm about. | ||
| That's what they're doing. | ||
| So now, if you think about it, we don't even have a female athletics division anymore, you know? | ||
| When was that created? | ||
| The female athletic division? | ||
| It was probably with like Title IX or something, I imagine. | ||
| Or was that... yeah. | ||
| So you have a special sporting division for women because women don't do well against men, and then they race it. | ||
| And now males are competing against females again. | ||
| Or, I'm sorry, males are just competing and females are being pushed out. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So if we go down that route, why, look man, when money's involved, why wouldn't, you know, the female division just be trans athletes? | ||
| And if that's what society wants, I don't know, whatever, I guess. | ||
| Yeah, eventually all the women are going to be pushed out because they're not physically built like a biological male. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The Olympics are supposedly going to be allowing transgender athletes. | ||
| I think it's ridiculous. | ||
| And that's going to result in, look, if every country wants the gold from the Olympics, well then of course they're going to choose the best path towards victory. | ||
| So they're going to seek out the best of the best. | ||
| And I look at, there's an interesting argument there about basketball. | ||
| The argument is basketball is disproportionately one race. | ||
| I think it's disproportionately black. | ||
| And disproportionately height advantaged. | ||
| No one complains about it. | ||
| Well, that makes sense. | ||
| It makes perfect sense. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| So that's the argument. | ||
| They say no one complains that there's no rules protecting short people. | ||
| Do you want to create a short division for basketball where only people for 5'10"? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| No, that's ridiculous, right? | ||
| Yeah, it is. | ||
| It's a silly-sounding basketball team. | ||
| So the argument from them is, in this regard... We've got to be under five foot to be on our team. | ||
| If we don't have the same protection for people who just happen to be too short to play, and you end up with sports that are dominated by people who only are fortunately one body type, it's actually more fair. | ||
| Because now, think about it. | ||
| How many people are over, you know, six foot five? | ||
| Very, very, very few people. | ||
| True. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So you've created a sport because there's no rules that disproportionately advantages a tiny micro-fraction of the population. | ||
| What's the difference? | ||
| You're right. | ||
| Well, that's the argument they bring up. | ||
| And it's like, do we—you know what they're actually arguing, though, for, right? | ||
| What? | ||
| Is degender—like, equity in sports, in basketball and football. | ||
| Could you imagine if they actually implemented rules where it's like the NBA teams had to be half female? | ||
| Oh boy. | ||
| It would basically just be the guy, like, it should be the guys playing against each other for the most part. | ||
| You just make the teams a little smaller. | ||
| So, look. | ||
| Good fundamentals though. | ||
| Yeah, right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Futurama joke. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Right, right, right, right. | ||
| I don't know, I don't know where that argument takes you in the end. | ||
| Um, I see the point, but there are a lot of sports that don't have these advantages. | ||
| And you can also point out, you know, Muggsy Bowes in the NBA. | ||
| What was he, like 5'3"? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We brought him up before. | ||
| And he's somebody who earned it through merit and ability. | ||
| But then they just say, like, what's one person out of how many? | ||
| And so, yeah, NBA just keeps trying to find the best of the best. | ||
| And if that's the point, then why wouldn't someone find the best of the best for women's sports? | ||
| All things. | ||
| All things. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| How about all things? | ||
| Meritocracy. | ||
| So I guess the main issue, though, is men and women can both be very tall. | ||
| And here's the counter to that. | ||
| The NBA is comprised of the best physically fit and the best physically applicable of the males and the best physically fit and applicable of the females. | ||
| We still separate based on gender because of the bell curve for both genders being like you're more likely to be like your own biological sex than the other. | ||
| Okay. So we separate it for that reason. But the counter argument is, yes, sports choose the best | ||
| of the best. Your point? Why? We're not going to allow, you know... Well, if I'm going to watch a | ||
| sport, I want to see the best of the best compete. Yeah. | ||
| Capitalism, baby. And so the issue there is watching someone who's biologically male compete against | ||
| females is not giving you the best of the best for females. Nice. | ||
| And so you don't get to see the best females in the sport. | ||
| You get to see a male who didn't make it or isn't competing in the male division or whatever for whatever reason. | ||
| I don't want to imply that they were doing it to your advantage. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| But, I mean, I'm sure that happens though. | ||
| Man, I'm not the best in the male side, but I can identify as a woman because I already know that I'm better than the best female. | ||
| I'm not saying it happens either, but I would not be surprised. | ||
| And I have a feeling a lot more people think that. | ||
| There are a few cases where the individuals aren't on any therapies or treatments. | ||
| That makes me wonder. | ||
| But it's like two of most of the cases we've seen. | ||
| Most of the cases we've seen where a transgender male athlete beats the females is... they're legit transitioning. | ||
| And there have been only... there's a few instances of people who are really exploiting it. | ||
| I'm not going to name them because they don't deserve to be named, but... Oh yeah, some nasty people. | ||
| Nasty, nasty people. | ||
| Well, I see a lot of female athletes that are speaking out against it because they're pissed. | ||
| They're like, how can we compete? | ||
| This isn't fair. | ||
| We're the top of our class and we're being outclassed completely by biological males. | ||
| Let's just remove all restrictions for all sport. | ||
| You're playing basketball, you can have a hockey stick and roller skates. | ||
| Trampolines get thrown on the field. | ||
| No rules. | ||
| What are the rules? | ||
| Who wins? | ||
| I have no idea, but it looks crazy. | ||
| I'll just go for it. | ||
| Anarchy. | ||
| Anarchy sports. | ||
| Just total chaos. | ||
| It's a field and we shut up and watch people do weird things. | ||
| And they, for some reason, there's a common theme of throwing balls through other holes, like through holes of some sort. | ||
| What's that movie we just watched with the, is it The Hunt? | ||
| The Ringer. | ||
| Oh, The Hunt. | ||
| The Ringer? | ||
| No, no, no, where they put a box of guns and stuff. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| That's The Hunt. | ||
| That's how we'll do sports. | ||
| We'll just drop a bunch of players on a field, have a box. | ||
| Full of things. | ||
| And just open it up. | ||
| Soccer balls, footballs. | ||
| Soccer balls, footballs. | ||

Just go! | |
| Just do it! | ||
| That'd actually be a funny sport. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that'd be fun. | |
| You gotta understand, people get good at that. | ||
| I know, that's true. | ||
| You know, they would figure out which balls to throw. | ||
| They would have teams, they'd be like, okay, when we go for it... It'd be like a relay. | ||
| We'll call it All Ball. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's actually a cool game idea. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I kinda like it. | |
| You're welcome. | ||
| So, think about it this way. | ||
| You'll have special people who are like, they're white receivers. | ||
| That was the day All Ball was born. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All Ball. | |
| It's a big crate. | ||
| It just opens up and there's a bunch, and it's also dodgeball. | ||
| It's also dodgeball. | ||
| You get hit by it, you're done. | ||
|

Yes. | |
| That would actually be a funny game. | ||
| Let's keep this going. | ||
| We can talk about this later. | ||
| Brainstorming. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| Well, we actually had a bunch of more important breaking news. | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| More important stuff to talk about? | ||
| Yeah, but I think I'm glad we had fun talking about the things that we did. | ||
| So I'll just let you guys know the hashtag all ball. | ||

| Okay, let us continue. | ||
| So, uh, three other cops in the George Floyd case have been charged with aiding and abetting a murder. | ||
| And Dare Chauvin's charges raised from 3rd to 2nd degree murder all now face 40 year terms. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| No, I'm not. | ||
| Look, I think there's real question about 2nd degree murder charge for Chauvin because apparently he knew the guy. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| That's where it gets weird. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| He knew him. | ||
| So they haven't gone as far as to say that he knew him, but they said that he... The owner of the nightclub came out and said they both worked for me. | ||
| For a year. | ||
| They were both security guards. | ||
| She said she didn't see them interact, but she knew that the cop was a hothead. | ||
| He was macing people regularly. | ||
| Holy cow. | ||
| And then the other dude worked inside. | ||
| So they were, you know, they weren't in the state. | ||
| One was like door security. | ||
| One was like indoor security to like have to haul people out. | ||
| I think that was George. | ||
| And so, but I mean, they worked there for her for a while. | ||
| You know what, man? | ||
| I got to say, if you go to a jury and say these two guys work together for a year and they may not have interacted, I think a reasonable person is going to be like, come on. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Well, she said she didn't know. | ||
| That's all I was saying. | ||
| She wasn't sure if they had interacted, but they both worked there for a year, so come on. | ||
| You work at a place, you know the people that work there. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| The point I'm bringing up is, she can say she's not sure, but a reasonable person's gonna be like, nah. | ||
| Like, if you worked at a big office building... And then he killed the guy? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| But that's why I think there may actually be... You know, here's the reason I bring this up. | ||
| There's often these cases where they try and give really harsh charges that never stick. | ||
| And they wonder why these cops don't get convicted. | ||
| And they say it's because the system is protecting itself. | ||
| And it's like, there's a little bit of that maybe. | ||
| Or the charges were too vicious. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Excuse me, that didn't stick because of that, right? | ||
| In a lot of these circumstances, you have a cop who freaks out, kills somebody, | ||
| and they say, murder! | ||
| And it's like, first of all, you have to consider that police are trained for lethal situations, | ||
| which means they're not going out, for the most part, with the intent to actually kill people. | ||
| And also, they actually deal with lethal situations. | ||
| Right. | ||
| No, it's not like it just suddenly sprung on them. | ||
| They're trained and they actually have to deal with this a lot. | ||
| So they go into every situation thinking that, you know, like, I gotta be prepared just in case this turns into a lethal, you know, situation. | ||
| So like, you know, you gotta look at both sides of that. | ||
| But the fact that they knew each other... Right, right, right. | ||
| So here's the point I was making. | ||
| When it comes to the line of duty, you might be able to get a manslaughter charge, negligent homicide or something like that, depending on your jurisdiction, because you can't ask someone to take a lethal weapon and enter situations where they may die and then call it premeditated murder when someone dies. | ||
| That's why I was saying it should be manslaughter from the beginning. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| This shouldn't be. | ||
| Well, no, this is before I'm finding out. | ||
| In the beginning I was like, it's clearly manslaughter. | ||
| In the least, it's manslaughter. | ||
| The guy died. | ||
| So here's why I would say that. | ||
| You have a responsibility, so with great power comes great responsibility. | ||
| Yes, I understand you're entering a situation, you have lethal force, you might use it, it might be wrong. | ||
| And if you get it really wrong, well you're still responsible. | ||
| Someone said this in chat the other day, and it's a common saying, you're responsible for every, you know, discharge of your weapon. | ||
| You're responsible for every bullet and where it ends up. | ||
| I think that's true for anyone that is holding a gun in their hands. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| The cops still get leeway because we ask them to do it for us. | ||
| Right. | ||
| In this instance, this dude had a guy with his knee on his neck not supposed to do that. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And he said, don't do that. | ||
| Everybody in our chat was saying, no way, don't do that. | ||
| We had a bunch of people in Super Chat who were prison guards. | ||
| We had law enforcement, military, and they all said, no way, man. | ||
| We were never told to do that. | ||
| And yet, there have been people that are tweeting me, in the Minneapolis police book, they have some statues of that this could be the case. | ||
| You could do this in certain situations. | ||
| For kneeling on someone's neck? | ||
| yeah and it's like i'm like i can't believe i'm actually reading this you know yeah i mean could it have been falsified like someone could have like made it up and like put it out there like look you know see he was doing whatever you know so this is all hearsay as far as i'm concerned but i am seeing that now and it's like is that really the case i don't know but my point though is if that is the case then that's basically Them trying to get him off the charges if they said well | ||
| look it's in the book See he was just following the the book that that we have | ||
| written It's like but I'm saying come on worse than that. I think | ||
| sometimes you might see trumped-up charges as a way to get him off | ||
| Yeah, so right so you've got a cop who accidentally kills somebody and it's clearly not going to fall under the | ||
| statute and the jury Can't convict because it doesn't meet the guidelines | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| So this is what people don't understand when it goes to a jury trial. | ||
| They say the question, you know, the jury has to answer is under, you know, say like first degree murder. | ||
| Did he, you know, premeditate and intend to kill this individual? | ||
| And immediately the jury's like, well, no, of course not. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Not guilty. | ||
| So, you gotta make sure you charge them appropriately. | ||
| Yeah, definitely. | ||
| But people like the sound of first-degree murder, you know, as opposed to second-degree or third-degree. | ||
| They think it just sounds like you're going harder against them. | ||
| It's like, no, it's just the appropriate charge. | ||
| Right, and that's important. | ||
| If we're gonna get justice for George, it's like, which I want justice for George. | ||
| I don't think these other cops should be getting 40-year terms. | ||
| That, to me, is crazy. | ||
| I'm not a fan of what they did. | ||
| These are the cops who are kneeling on his back. | ||
| They should have known better. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And they're, in my opinion, that would be like a manslaughter. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Because they were actually, you know, they were challenging the guy and he was telling them, like, basically shut up. | ||
| The other cops were standing there challenging him, like, you should get off. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So basically there's like statements from some documents where the guy's, like, one of the cops is like, he's like, he's not even resisting anymore. | ||
| And he's like, so what? | ||
| Leave him where he is. | ||
| And they're like, okay. | ||
| So there's a problem. | ||
| It is tough. | ||
| I think 40 years is a bit harsh for people being stupid, but it is fair to point out just following orders is no excuse. | ||
| And people being stupid leading to a death is a little bit different than people being stupid and anything else happening that isn't a death of a human. | ||
| I do find 40 years extreme. | ||
| Well, it says here the most severe charges carry a maximum sentence of 40 years, so they wouldn't get 40 years. | ||
| There's that story of the two lawyers who apparently threw a Molotov cocktail, and it was a 30-year-old woman and a 32-year-old guy. | ||
| Oh yeah, you were telling me about this earlier. | ||
| In New York, and they were lawyers, man. | ||
| Their lives were That's a great life. | ||
| They had a great life. | ||
| Man, they fought so hard, they did everything right, now they're lawyers. | ||
| And then they chose to make Molotov cocktails. | ||
| To do what? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But the reason I bring that up is, these cops, who are being charged now in face, up to 40 years. | ||
| One day, they walked into work, everything was normal, they probably had a couple donuts and a coffee, and life was great. | ||
| And in a moment's notice, in a flash, Now they're facing prison. | ||
| They're getting death threats. | ||
| People are calling for their heads. | ||
| Their life is forever changed. | ||
| And that should be a warning to people. | ||
| You can't take things for granted. | ||
| You've got to be responsible for yourself. | ||
| You've got to know what you're doing. | ||
| You've got to know what you're getting into. | ||
| And I take this stuff seriously, man. | ||
| I get really, really angry when people play stupid games near me. | ||
| When I'm in a car and someone's got road rage, I'll shut your mouth. | ||
| Do not put me in your stupid situation. | ||
| If it's a lotteries tickets chance someone throws a brick at the car, I don't want to win that lottery. | ||
| Or pulls a gun and just starts blindly shooting at you. | ||
| That's Chicago. | ||
| Those are the Chicago rules. | ||
| You know, I know too many people in Chicago who would run their mouths and then what happens is they're shooting on the highway or getting rammed into or a fight breaks out and I'm like, I don't know. | ||
| Or run off the road. | ||
| I almost got run over the road. | ||
| Some people were crazy. | ||
| Chicago's crazy, man. | ||
| It's a crazy place. | ||
| I was hanging out with some skateboarders in the south suburbs. | ||
| And just because they're stupid moron punks, this is what really got me away from the more far left anarcho-punk people. | ||
| They saw some jocks, they said. | ||
| And so they went and got weapons from their trunk and then chased them off. | ||
| And I was like, yo, what are you doing? | ||
| It's like, we're here to skate. | ||
| Those guys weren't doing anything. | ||
| And they're like, who cares? | ||
| They're jocks. | ||
| And I'm like, I care! | ||
| And I was like, I'm out of this, man. | ||
| I'm not going to hang out with you, man, if you play stupid games. | ||
| There's no reason to be that. | ||
| So you see these two lawyers. | ||
| Stupid games, man. | ||
| Could you imagine what's going through their mind? | ||
| Think about this. | ||
| One day you wake up, you make a pot of coffee, you're hanging out with your friends, you watch, I don't know, what's hot on Netflix? | ||
| Tiger King! | ||
| You just finished the final episode, I guess. | ||
| No, that was April. | ||
| Yeah, that was April. | ||
| Alright, so whatever it is these dumb New York hipsters are doing. | ||
| Space Force. | ||
| Space Force? | ||
| Is that a show? | ||
| I don't know, that just came out. | ||
| They're eating pizza. | ||
| I haven't given it a shot yet. | ||
| They're eating a pizza, these two lawyers, and then they see riots breaking out. | ||
| And so they're like, yo, let's make some Molotovs, huh? | ||
| And then they go and do it. | ||
| And just like that, they drive up in a car, and that one thin line was crossed, and their lives are over. | ||
| Rightly so. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Stupid games, stupid prizes, man. | ||
| Yeah, that's how decisions work. | ||
| And so, you know, I bring it back to this, like, it's just an idea I've been thinking about with, like, how easily your life will end when you do something dumb. | ||
| It's easy to see in the riots. | ||
| I wonder if this woman, or this man, was an unwitting moron. | ||
| Like, the guy drove apparently. | ||
| I wonder if she was like, come on, come on, let's do this, drive. | ||
| And he's like, okay. | ||
| And he just went along with it. | ||
| I'm not saying it's true. | ||
| I'm just saying you can't ignore responsibility for what's happening around you. | ||
| So with these cops, they're getting charged. | ||
| I'm not surprised. | ||
| When you are kneeling on someone's back and you say he's not resisting and the guy says, I don't care, you push him off. | ||
| You see that video where the cop- Agreed. | ||
| Yeah, you're absolutely right. | ||
| You see that video where the cop is kneeling on the guy's neck in the riot, and they're screaming, get his knee off his neck, and then the other cop grabs his knee and pulls him off? | ||
| Awesome. | ||
| Yep, there you go. | ||
| I was like, that's how easy it is. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| Yeah, just like that. | ||
| Arrest the rioter. | ||
| But these other cops, they were just mindlessly derping along. | ||
| No, we both said so. | ||
| Just laying on this guy's back was dying. | ||
| That's messed up, man. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| So the medical examiner said that it wasn't strangulation. | ||
| It was a combination of the restraint and pre-existing medical conditions. | ||
| And then I guess two pathologists concluded that it was pressure on, I guess, the carotid or the arteries to the neck. | ||
| Basically, it's not strangulation. | ||
| It's like when you compress someone. | ||
| You cut the blood off from the brain. | ||
| And then they die. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And that's what he did. | ||
| That's how that works. | ||
| So now, so let's talk about, we'll wrap this up with the last point about him knowing him and now second degree murder. | ||
| Now, before we move on from this, though, I do wanna ask the question. | ||
| People are rioting for this, right? | ||
| Now, would these guys, all these cops, I mean, were they gonna face these charges anyway? | ||
| Are people gonna be like, if we didn't riot as crazy as we did, would this have happened? | ||
| I'm curious, you know, because... It wouldn't, and you know what? | ||
| It wouldn't have happened? | ||
| They wouldn't have arrested them? | ||
| They would not have arrested them. | ||
| Not the same. | ||
| They wouldn't have arrested them, no. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So here's what needs to happen. | ||
| From this point forward, if I was the mayor of Minneapolis, you know what I'd say? | ||
| What? | ||
| I'd walk out and I'd say, this man will be arrested and charged based upon the evidence in front of us, and we will address the situation brought up to all of us. | ||
| If there is a riot, he will be released immediately and all charges will be dropped due to conflict of interest. | ||
| And we will not, we will not capitulate to threats of violence from anyone, anywhere. | ||
| And mark my words from this day forward, if you ever riot in response to this, we will drop all charges immediately on these officers. | ||
| What, and like let them out? | ||
| I'm, I'm, I'm, I am exaggerating quite a bit. | ||
| But the point I'm trying to make is, These people are rioting, and the government said, whatever you want. | ||
| You know what they just told the rioters? | ||
| What? | ||
| Do it again. | ||
| Do it again! | ||
| Who said that? | ||
| The government. | ||
| The government said, we're so sorry, rioters. | ||
| You can do whatever you want. | ||
| And because you did, we will give you what you asked for. | ||
| You don't negotiate with terror. | ||
| Look at what's happening with COVID. | ||
| But they are. | ||
| The law-abiding- That's what that is, then. | ||
| Right? | ||
| The law-abiding citizens. | ||
| I've been staying in for months. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, seriously. | |
| shut their businesses and then legally went out and said, we want our businesses back. | ||
| Or just, I want to go to church. | ||
| Yeah, seriously. | ||
| They were smeared and defamed and insulted. | ||
| And the people who broke the rules and broke the law were defended. | ||
| That's what you've learned. | ||
| And that is a dangerous precedent in our society. | ||
| That the terror works, man. | ||
| Seems like it. | ||
| Reminds me of that Star Trek episode where Data asks Picard, you know, if we condemn terrorism, why is it so often that throughout history it works? | ||
| And then Data gives him examples, and Picard's like, I don't know. | ||
| You know, some of the most difficult questions that we've, we've fought it, you know, ourselves. | ||
| That was a good episode. | ||
| Real good episode. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because, unfortunately, these people know. | ||
| South Park did that episode where they talked about terrorism. | ||
| And then in the end, Comedy Central bleeped the whole speech. | ||
| Because, basically, he was like, I learned something today. | ||
| That if you engage in violence and fear and threaten people, they'll give you whatever you want and it works and all this other stuff. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Dangerous thinking. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And this is what we're getting out of this. | ||
| And I don't like it. | ||
| I don't like it one bit. | ||
| If they had come out immediately and said, you know, listen, if there's ever an instance where this occurs and you peacefully protest and march through the streets, we will listen. | ||
| If you riot, we shut it down immediately. | ||
| We'll let them go. | ||
| Keep writing all you want, man. | ||
| But I'll tell you what, we cannot have a society where you threaten small business owners and regular people where a 77-year-old retired police chief dies because he got... The David Dorn story, he got a call. | ||
| Yeah, it's on. | ||
| And he went to check it out, and they killed him for some TVs. | ||
| Now we have 13-plus people who have died, and they're going, the rioting worked! | ||
| Oh, that's great! | ||
| All you had to do was walk over some corpses to get what you wanted. | ||
| Isn't that great? | ||
| Yeah, more people died. | ||
| We can't have that, man. | ||
| So, I don't know if the solution actually is to say, well, cut them loose if you riot. | ||
| But the point I'm making is, you can't give the rioters what they want. | ||
| Then they'll riot more! | ||
| Because what happened? | ||
| They rioted and said, here's what we want. | ||
| So they gave it to them. | ||
| They rioted more. | ||
| Okay, we'll up the charges. | ||
| They rioted more and then they said, we want first-degree murder. | ||
| It's like, are we negotiating here, dude? | ||
| Is that what's happening? | ||
| Yeah, we're negotiating. | ||
| You're destroying businesses, setting fires across the country, and that's your negotiation? | ||
| Killing your own people, too. | ||
| Seriously. | ||
| Killing people. | ||
| Good point. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Good point, Tim. | ||
| Fightin' the cities now. | ||
| Oof. | ||
| Anyway, man, I'll wrap it up with this. | ||
| In foreign countries, Middle East, if an American gets kidnapped, you know what the US government promises? | ||
| Droppin' the hammer on him. | ||
| We promise that a helicopter will fly over where you live and a bunch of commandos will jump down and execute everybody in that facility. | ||
| That's the promise you get. | ||
| Those are our deliverables. | ||
| Let's do it. | ||
| So they don't like kidnapping Americans. | ||
| Do you know what Germany and Spain say? | ||
| What? | ||
| We will pay immediately. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So they love kidnapping them. | |
| But those people are safe, and then they pay for it. | ||
| So I went through that hostile environment action, whatever it's called, training, and they told us straight up that if you are captured, first and foremost, you have to assess your own situation. | ||
| Can you escape, feign illness, you know, whatever. | ||
| For the most part, however, they said, rest assured, Americans who are kidnapped have an extremely high chance of, extremely high, like, plus 90% percentage of rescue. | ||
| Because the American government wants it to be known that if American is taken, you are dead. | ||
| So they don't always, and sometimes it takes a really, really long time. | ||
| Depending on who's kidnapped you, whether it's a governmental force or it's, you know, randos, like random people, like random terrorists or something, they're coming for you. | ||
| And it gets really difficult when it's a government like Iran or Venezuela or North Korea. | ||
| But when it's journalists, you know, in certain areas, man, I know some people who have been rescued by the State Department. | ||
| Really? | ||
| It's crazy stuff, dude. | ||
| I know somebody who was in Libya when the Gaddafi stuff was going down, and the US government sent in a helicopter for him. | ||
| I'm like, what? | ||
| And I'm like, just for you? | ||
| And they were like, they evacuated Americans. | ||
| They knew that there were some Americans that were there, and they got a bunch of people out. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I'm like, that's crazy, man. | ||
| They flew you out. | ||
| So these are stories that I've heard. | ||
| Some journalists have told me that after kidnappings, like, yeah, they'll send you a helicopter, bro. | ||
| And these people are worried that someone's going to drop down and it's going to be a bunch of, you know, it's going to be SEAL Team 6. | ||
| And that's not who you want to meet. | ||
| Definitely not. | ||
| Not worth it. | ||
| No way. | ||
| We do the opposite around the country. | ||
| We tell them, Oh, yeah, you burn stuff, you blow it up. | ||
| All right, we got you. | ||
| We'll give you what you want. | ||
| It's a horrifying lesson to the law abiding citizens of this country who've lost their businesses and the loved ones of people like, you know, David Dorn, for instance, who now have to see the suffering. | ||
| Meanwhile, in the media, they praise it. | ||
| Chris Cuomo praises it. | ||
| These people are gross. | ||
| Chris Cuomo is a joke. | ||
| Yup. | ||
| Yup. | ||
| Well, how about we get to those super chats finally? | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| That sounds good. | ||
| So let's see. | ||
| What up everybody? | ||
| We've got 50 billion superchats. | ||
| Oh gosh. | ||
| And we'll do our best to read through them. | ||
| But I don't know if we have too much or... Uh oh. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| It just erased a bunch. | ||
| Already? | ||
| We didn't even have a chance to read them. | ||
| First of all, I gotta say man, I'm really really annoyed. | ||
| This is the third browser I've tried. | ||
| YouTube Studio is broken. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's completely broken. | ||
| Our stats don't update, superchats often don't appear. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| I gotta spin the UFO for all those chats that just got deleted. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| I don't know if you caught that. | ||
| YouTube just deleted all the beginning Super Chats, so we don't know how many we lost. | ||
| It ripped 20 minutes of Super Chats. | ||
| Can we get an F in chat, please? | ||
| No, I'm sorry. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm sorry. | |
| 10 minutes. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| Let me put an F. Let me get this going. | ||
| F in chat. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| It's for you, everybody. | ||
| But to be honest, you know, there's just already a ridiculous amount of people watching. | ||
| So as much as I love all you guys, we have ten times as many viewers as we had when we first started reading Super Chats, and it's just there's too many. | ||
| Love you guys. | ||
| So I'm gonna just read as many as I can because, you know, now it's basically a Q&A session. | ||
| Yeah, let's do it. | ||
| And unfortunately, we just lost the early ones. | ||
| I saw I'd Be Rippin' Em was in there. | ||
| Oh no! | ||
| Sorry, I'd be ripping them. | ||
| Shout out to you, buddy. | ||
| We had a fart joke. | ||
| We're gonna read it. | ||
| He's the most consistent. | ||
| One of the most consistent Super Chatters. | ||
| Disappointed. | ||
| Nothing if not regular. | ||
| No, I got nothing. | ||
| Here's what we got. | ||
| Robbie Schroeder says, just saw the notification and decided to come watch. | ||
| Also, the Lylat system is a Star Fox reference from me. | ||
| Would rather deal with Andross or be Would rather deal with Andross or be trapped on Dinosaur Planet. | ||
| Here's 10 bucks for you. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| It's a good game. | ||
| Can't stick around for the stream. | ||
| Hope everyone is doing well. | ||
| Keep up the great work. | ||
| Tim, Soy, Jesus, and the Ginger Queen. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Jake says, China's been kinda quiet lately, huh? | ||
| What are the chances they take advantage of the West being distracted with riots to try something Red Dong? | ||
| Wasn't there some story about Chinese students being told to riot or something? | ||
| No, I didn't read that. | ||
| That was from a long time ago. | ||
| That was from the beginning of the year, I think. | ||
| But there is escalation between them and India. | ||
| Yes, there's China and India. | ||
| That's happening right now. | ||
| Yes, they may be distracted. | ||
| They're pushing out because they can. | ||
| We're distracted. | ||
| We're using our military for our own citizens right now. | ||
| I think I need to write a song called The Preppers Were Right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| For real. | ||
| I'm totally gonna do it. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| Yeah, you can write a new song in like two minutes, right? | ||
| Easy. | ||
| We've got international conflict and tension. | ||
| We have the Trump-Russia-Ukraine impeachment, whatever that was. | ||
| We've got now the coronavirus international lockdown. | ||
| The coronavirus that was. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Now mass rioting and looting and protests. | ||
| If you had one reason to prep, you know what I mean? | ||
| I would understand if you decided not to do it. | ||
| We've got, what was that, five? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's time to start gearing up for something. | ||
| One of them is gonna happen. | ||
| I don't know what's going on. | ||
| Something's gonna happen. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| All right, let's see. | ||
| Sarkhard Darkstar says the current narrative on the ground in Minnesota is that Antifa isn't a real group. | ||
| It means anti-fascist and they are good guys. | ||
| And that is only white supremacists doing the damage. | ||
| It's insane. | ||
| It really, really is. | ||
| And there's like, apparently the story's going around now where it's like the FBI has concluded that Antifa was not involved. | ||
| And I'm like, what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| That's ridiculous. | ||
| No, no, no, hold on. | ||
| You just told me Antifa wasn't the thing. | ||
| Now you're telling me they're not involved. | ||
| Are they a thing or are they not a thing? | ||
| Do they exist or they don't? | ||
| Right, which is it? | ||
| They exist. | ||
| No, I know that. | ||
| Yeah, I know, but it's like, what? | ||
| Yeah, make up your mind. | ||
| The funny thing is... Well, Trump said that they're bad, so we gotta go with the opposite. | ||
| Yeah, they don't exist. | ||
| I'm just gonna briefly show this because we didn't get to it. | ||
| I did cover it on my second channel. | ||
| Like how Trump said take hydroxychloroquine, and now the New York Times says that the study that claimed it was bad is now being called into question. | ||
| You mean to tell me that Trump comes out and says, here's a drug that may help you, and then all of a sudden the entire media says it's dangerous and it'll kill you, including Cavuto on Fox News? | ||
| And wouldn't let it go for days and days and days, like ripping him apart for it. | ||
| Now that everything's opening back up and the protests are all out... By the way... | ||
| Now it's safe again. | ||
| Wow, dude. | ||
| Talk about a red suppository. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Like, come on, man. | ||
| Shoving it in there, man. | ||
| You mean to tell me that- No lube. | ||
| Yikes! | ||
| Every single media outlet, well, it's not every, but all these mainstream media companies are saying, it'll kill you, it's dangerous. | ||
| Neil Cavuto literally said, do not take this, it will kill you. | ||
| And now, like, there was a video from Fleca's Talks. | ||
| Where our doctor was like, we prescribe this all the time. | ||
| Like, this is ridiculous. | ||
| We got a memo for Trump Senate saying it's dangerous. | ||
| We're like, what? | ||
| No, it's not. | ||
| It's been around for decades. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They've been using it for a long time to treat malaria and some other things. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| And there it is. | ||
| Now that it's all kind of wrapping up, scientists are questioning whether or not it's actually bad for you. | ||
| That's amazing to me. | ||
| About that. | ||
| That's amazing. | ||
| Welcome to the political world we live in now, huh? | ||
| Nothing makes sense. | ||
| All right, let's see where we at. | ||
| Honeybadger says, hey y'all, would love to put my name in the beanie for the Research Fact Checker Golden Ticket. | ||
| Would love to send y'all creds. | ||
| We are, unfortunately, quite a bit away from when that actually happens, and I gotta admit, the world ending is complicating it. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Somewhat, yes. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, the world's not ending. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| I'm just kidding. | ||
| I'm half kidding, actually. | ||
| Josh Wolf says, protests in JCMO the other day. | ||
| Largely peaceful as far as I know. | ||
| Still slept with my ear on the scanner and peace loaded. | ||
| Love you guys, stay safe. | ||
| Yeah, the other day we had a helicopter fly by and like a dozen, I don't want to exaggerate, but a lot of sirens. | ||
| Don't know how many different vehicles it was. | ||
| Yeah, it was a lot. | ||
| And it went on for a little while. | ||
| Yeah, it was very obviously some kind of protest or whatever. | ||
| Well, and you can tell they were going from to a specific direction. | ||
| They were all going towards Philadelphia. | ||
| Yeah, they shut the bridges down. | ||
| Did they? | ||
| They did. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| That doesn't surprise me. | ||
| More than once. | ||
| That doesn't surprise me. | ||
| So, like, a couple days. | ||
| I'm glad they did. | ||
| It's like, keep it over there, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Where are we at? | ||
| All right. | ||
| Fulsa says, defend the Alamo from the mob. | ||
| Thoughts? | ||
| Is the Alamo under threat? | ||
| I hope not. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Sean Easton says, how much to spin the UFO off? | ||
| This is a contribution toward that. | ||
| Make like a Beyblade and let it rip. | ||
| Let me see if I can do that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Whoa, wait, wait, wait. | |
| To spin it off? | ||
| We can, but I think that's because we can't put it back on. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Be aware, Adam. | ||
| We can't put it back on. | ||
| It's really hard. | ||
| You're trying to spin it off? | ||
| Oh wait, off. | ||
| Like launch it off? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| What are you doing? | ||
| I'm just trying to stop it. | ||
| Yeah, it's off. | ||
| It's off now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're welcome. | |
| Yay! | ||
| Is that what they mean? | ||
| I'm going to count it and say that's what it was. | ||
| I thought they meant to spin it until it flipped off the thing. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| That's not enough money. | ||
| That's what this means. | ||
| I don't even see how much it was, but it wasn't enough. | ||
| It wasn't enough. | ||
| This is our mascot. | ||
| Yeah, it's such a pain to put it back on. | ||
| I'm sorry, but no. | ||
| No, man. | ||
| LaSalle says, take care of yourself, Tim. | ||
| Hello, guys. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| What up? | ||
| Podcast Edge says, Tim, thanks so much for the continued coverage on everything. | ||
| It's helping keep the last bit of my sanity. | ||
| I still feel like I'm being gaslit, but you're keeping things in perspective. | ||
| Also, Lydia, keep the shirts coming. | ||
| Dude, we can see the gaslighting. | ||
| That's the thing. | ||
| I'm losing my mind. | ||
| I see it, man. | ||
| The New York Times. | ||
| Oh, that hydroxy thing where everyone was saying it was bad for you? | ||
| Yep It's because of those people sitting with their hands up Repeating what was being told they want you to be a Google. | ||
| There's so many people out there like that Google gobbles that are just Okay. | ||
| Oh, it's good now. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Yeah, dude. | ||
| Oh, did you forget about that's what Trump was saying and they were like, yeah Well, no, no, no Trump bad Trump's bad But it's okay now. | ||
| What? | ||
| I asked some friends. | ||
| I'm like, I messaged some friends. | ||
| Where's COVID? | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| Where's COVID? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Have you been paying attention? | ||
| Do you have amnesia? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Did you forget that we were just told we can't go outside? | ||
| The theater near my house is out of business now. | ||
| Yeah, they shut down. | ||
| AMC is gone. | ||
| Did it go down? | ||
| AMC is gone? | ||
| I think so. | ||
| I think they're out of business. | ||
| Where are we going to see our movie? | ||
| They're opening. | ||
| It's like seven or eight miles away. | ||
| That's so much further, though. | ||
| But I'm like, they destroyed everything. | ||
| How did you forget this happened? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's crazy, man. | ||
| How did you forget that? | ||
| Scary. | ||
| What are you, what are these, I'm curious, what are you doing all day? | ||
| Are you, like, just staring at the wall? | ||
| They're watching TV. | ||
| I'm sorry, man. | ||
| No, everyone's probably distracted because the UFO's not spinning. | ||
| Have you ever seen... That's what I've got my money on. | ||
| Have you ever seen a third person, an overhead view of video game rendering? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh, yeah. | |
| Okay. | ||
| Yeah. So there was this viral video showing how when your character is looking, it renders, | ||
| and everything disappears and they're not looking at it, right? That's clearly what it is. These | ||
| people don't exist until you talk to them. And then all of a sudden it's like nothing happened. | ||
| It's like time jump. Or they're NPCs, whatever. I got my money on that. It's like, could you | ||
| imagine right now? Like, imagine you're... | ||
| I want all of you to imagine this. | ||
| You're all listening. | ||
| You all are tuned in to what's going on. | ||
| Imagine your good friend or family member, and they're in their living room like this. | ||
| The T-square? | ||
| T-pose. | ||
| T-pose. | ||
| T-pose, doing nothing, not saying nothing. | ||
| And until you message them on Facebook, all of a sudden, then they go... | ||
| Pick up their phone. | ||
| They have no recollection of anything. | ||
| Nothing matters. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What is it like? | |
| It's a funny image. | ||
| Oh, it's hard to work with. | ||
| All of your friends and family just T-posing, completely clueless as to what's happening around the world. | ||
| Yeah, that's what it is, huh? | ||
| Yeah, I try to get people to read the news. | ||
| JK says, thanks for telling the truth and getting it out there. | ||
| It's people like you that may save this country. | ||
| What the F everyone is posting? | ||
| I missed it. | ||
| The black squares? | ||
| I'm like, what? | ||
| They are helping. | ||
| Oh, what's the F everyone is posting? | ||
| Oh, you missed it! | ||
| Oh, it's just a gag. | ||
| Yeah, it's respect. | ||
| For respect. | ||
| The Spiral Aim says, keep it the good fight, Tim. | ||
| We need more clear reporting and analysis. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| I couldn't help myself. | ||
| Gary Richard says, I refuse to believe that after all the crap Tim has seen, he doesn't have a panic room full of machine guns. | ||
| Well, who says he doesn't? | ||
| That is an interesting mental image. | ||
| Well, actually. | ||
| Actually. | ||
| Oh gosh. | ||
| There's something you need to understand about the animal kingdom. | ||
| Animals that burrow can travel, for the most part, in one direction. | ||
| If they're in the back of their burrow, they become very vicious. | ||
| Except for rabbits, for some reason. | ||
| They're prey animals. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| So badgers are extremely aggressive because they live in burrows, and when it comes to a conflict, their choice is fight or die. | ||
| Birds tend to flee because they can travel in multiple dimensions, or they can go up and down. | ||
| So the more mobility an animal has, the less likely it is to engage in conflict. | ||
| I don't necessarily need... I can do one of two things. | ||
| I can have a bug out machine gun room or I can have a van that's self-sustaining. | ||
| So the first thing I went for was... Machine gun optional. | ||
| Well, so listen... | ||
| Roof turret? | ||
| I do not want to have... So there's a couple things to consider. | ||
| The difficulty of mobility depending on the scale of weapons you buy. | ||
| So let's say rioting breaks out in the Philly suburbs. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Well, having a gun won't be enough to stop a mass riot. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| So a better option is bug out. | ||
| Get out of there and have a fully functioning studio to continue working and operating off the grid. | ||
| That seemed like the more practical solution. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| The other issue is, you know, it's In the event that someone actually comes to my house... Well, I want to avoid giving away too many details, but suffice it to say, this house is protected to a rather absurd degree, to put it lightly. | ||
| It's a little weird. | ||
| But I'm not going to explain why. | ||
| I'm totally okay with it, though. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, right, right. | |
| It's great. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| Or how, or what you mean. | ||
| Well, there's a couple things to point out. | ||
| Let's move on. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Put it lightly, but bug out was seemingly more important. | ||
| Yeah, don't worry about us. | ||
| Yeah, you don't have to worry. | ||
| Let's see, where are we at? | ||
| Brian says, do you think the media will turn around again and still shame everyone into getting COVID vaccines? | ||
| Yes, I do, because people have amnesia. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| How many people do you think are going to come down with COVID now? | ||
| Well, are they even going to come down with COVID? | ||
| So here's what Mark D. Levin of New York said. | ||
| I love this so much. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| He said something like, remember, if in a few weeks we see a massive spike in COVID cases, don't blame the protesters, blame racism. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Let me see if I have the story. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I mean, I see what he's saying. | ||
| Yeah, it's right here. | ||
| Check it out. | ||
| NPR. | ||
| Dozens of public health and disease experts have signed an open letter in support of the nationwide anti-racism protests. | ||
| White supremacy is a lethal public health issue that predates and contributes to COVID-19, they wrote. | ||
| Ah, that's right. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| You see, the real virus was the white supremacy we met along the way. | ||
| Or as Michael Tracy said, white supremacy was the real virus all along. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| This is what they're saying. | ||
| Could you believe this? | ||
| They're telling you that they don't care about COVID if it's about racial justice, but they care about COVID if it means your life. | ||
| Think about that. | ||
| You know what we're watching right now, right? | ||
| We're watching the meshing of the two different dialogues, and they're making it match up perfectly. | ||
| They're trying to. | ||
| Right, they're trying. | ||
| It's really, really hard, but they're managing. | ||
| Two galaxies are colliding. | ||
| These puzzle pieces don't connect, and they're bashing it with a hammer to, like, force it in. | ||
| They're, like, cutting it out with scissors. | ||
| The only thing you should be bashing is the like button. | ||
| That like button. | ||
| Smash that like button! | ||
|
unidentified
|
That is correct. | |
| Bash that like button! | ||
| Smash it! | ||
| Thank you, Adam. | ||
| You're welcome. | ||
| No, but for real, think about it. | ||
| When your business was going under, when your business was collapsing, they said, we're in this together. | ||
| And you were like, fine. | ||
| And when the rioters went out and burned everything down, they said, Hey, man, they're speaking the language of the unheard. | ||
| Calm down. | ||
| I gave up everything for this. | ||
| You know what's scary about that, man? | ||
| What? | ||
| The people who said, for my community, I will sacrifice my business, my life. | ||
| We'll lose everything. | ||
| And then when the rioters came out and they said, screw you. | ||
| Fine, we'll take it then. | ||
| They said, screw you. | ||
| Yeah, we're gonna break your windows. | ||
| No, no, you can't open your business. | ||
| Oh, the rioters? | ||
| Language of the unheard. | ||
| You know how it is. | ||
| Do you think any of these people believe in a community anymore? | ||
| Did anyone have their back? | ||
| When their businesses no longer ceased to function? | ||
| When the rioters came and destroyed everything, what did the politicians say? | ||
| Well, they're grieving. | ||
| They're upset. | ||
| What did CNN say? | ||
| Chris Cuomo says, who says protests need to be peaceful? | ||
| Literally the First Amendment. | ||
| The First Amendment literally says peaceably assemble. | ||
| Peaceable assembly. | ||
| Not violently assemble. | ||
| Oh my goodness. | ||
| I can't imagine how regular Americans must feel right now. | ||
| I couldn't even imagine. | ||
| Because we have the luxury of our businesses just kept going. | ||
| Do you see that vote that's going around the poll on Twitter? | ||
| Which one? | ||
| If the election was tomorrow, who would you vote for? | ||
| What do you think the percentage is? | ||
| Biden or Trump? | ||
| Trump. | ||
| By how much? | ||
| I don't know, a few points. | ||
| Make a guess. | ||
| A few points? | ||
| Six points. | ||
| Small amount? | ||
| No, it's like 75% of the people who voted was Trump. | ||
| But how many lefties have seen it? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Get it into some lefty circles. | |
| People say I'm lefty. | ||
| I thought I was lefty for the longest time. | ||
| I am on a lot of left versus right issues. | ||
| You're totally lefty, dude. | ||
| I totally am. | ||
| I clicked Trump. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's no question right now. | ||
| Biden's the last thing we need. | ||
| There was a Democrat stronghold in Minnesota, CNN actually covered this, that votes for Democrats locally and voted for Trump nationally. | ||
| And people don't realize that Trump ran as a moderate. | ||
| Even Matthew Iglesias of Vox.com said Trump is a moderate. | ||
| So what's your choice? | ||
| Lunacy or moderate? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Indeed. | |
| I know. | ||
| got personality defects and that's putting it lightly. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But his policy wise he sounds very much like Democrats sound. | ||
| Aside from the fact that he talks in a strange way. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He says silly things. | ||
| He says a lot of stupid things. | ||
| I mean he's a reality TV star. | ||
| I know. | ||
| And that shows. | ||
| It really does. | ||
| But he is kind of like a Democrat from the 90s. | ||
| People have compared him to Bill Clinton in the good ways and the bad ways. | ||
| In the good ways and the bad ways, yeah. | ||
| And that's a good point. | ||
| Right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's a good point. | |
| Yep. | ||
| So, you know, I, what are your choices right now, man? | ||
| He did an interview recently where he was like, look at Biden. | ||
| How far left has he gone? | ||
| Well, that's a fair point. | ||
| Why are these armed police guards killing these people? | ||
| They should shoot him in the leg. | ||
| Like what? | ||
| No, they shouldn't pull their gun at all. | ||
| Figure something else out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Why would you go there? | ||
| Shoot him in the legs. | ||
| Because he clearly didn't ask anybody about real policy and real reform. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I got to be honest. | ||
| That's something I would have said a couple of years ago. | ||
| I probably did. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Why can't you just shoot them in the legs? | ||
| I think I said it like a month ago. | ||
| Like if you are going to pull your gun? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And you are, if they are charging you? | ||
| I'll tell you what, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So I think we were talking about this like a month ago when I said shoot to wound and everyone was like, no, no, no, no. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| If you're going to pull your weapon, a weapon is used to stop, stop the threat for good. | ||
| Right. | ||
| The issue is you're trained for center mass and you're shooting to kill. | ||
| And if you try and start targeting extremities, you could injure other people. | ||
| And it could be worse. | ||
| It can be worse. | ||
| So it's like, you have to be, you have to, you have to be ready and quick. | ||
| There's a lot of other reasons I'm not going to get into, but I'm not a politician running, trying to reform the police department. | ||
| I'm a dude who complains on the internet. | ||
| Who's like, here's what I think. | ||
| And then people were like, you're wrong. | ||
| And I was like, oh man, that's a good point. | ||
| Joe Biden's like, here's my policy plans. | ||
| I've thought about nothing. | ||
| I asked to no one, not even Google it. | ||
| That was a little Clinton. | ||
| Yeah, that was a little bit, yeah. | ||
| I don't know how Joe Biden talks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He just says... Much better. | |
| There you go, yeah. | ||
| That's better, yeah. | ||
| There's your Biden. | ||
| That guy, man. | ||
| It's getting creepy watching how they're trying to, like... It's just... Weekend at Bernie's him? | ||
| Yeah, exactly! | ||
| Put him in sunglasses and just put him in front of the podium. | ||
| That's really what's going on. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| Weekends at Bernie's him. | ||
| He's wearing his mask wrong. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| It's like, dude, if there was COVID on that mask, you'd have COVID now. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Some people didn't even think it was him. | ||
| Because he comes out with a mask and sunglasses. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| It's like, who's that guy? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ah, whatever. | |
| It's a robot. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Where are we at? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| It wouldn't be a robot, because a robot would probably be more articulate. | ||
| Animated cadaver. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Someone would have to hold him, though. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oscar Corneo says, no stop in this trend, I think. | ||
| Social media too infectious. | ||
| People having their bills paid and nothing to do. | ||
| Videos of violence being shared with no regard for the safety of others. | ||
| Cold War type of escalation. | ||
| That's a good point, man. | ||
| A lot of these people make a living off of this. | ||
| And they accuse me of being a grifter, and it's like, bro, let me tell you something. | ||
| I could easily just make videos about anything else. | ||
| In fact, I will tell you this right now, there is so much more money to be made doing Minecraft videos. | ||
| Literally anything else. | ||
| And then I have to risk censorship and getting shut down. | ||
| No, I talk about this stuff because I want to. | ||
| But there are a lot of people on Twitter who don't have monetization, so they put links to PayPal and they make money. | ||
| You make a viral, nasty tweet and you put it to PayPal, people pay you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| And so that's the engine that's fueling a lot of this. | ||
| How will you monetize that? | ||
| Well, they did. | ||
| That's amazing. | ||
| TooFatToFly says, Tim, have you heard about the massive riots in Zeke, Scotland? | ||
| The rioters are hailing objects off the roofs of buildings at people. | ||
| They're calling it Zeke Hail. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Can you look that up? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Holy cow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Am I right? | ||
| I think he means me angry. | ||
| Nah, we're falling apart, man. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Chaotic says, hello there, Super Beanie Bros and Lydia of White Run. | ||
| Hope you're well. | ||
| These riots are making me, making me angry. | ||
| I think, I think he means me angry. | ||
| I've been looking to America to lead the West back into freedom. | ||
| Nah, we're falling apart, man. | ||
| We are falling apart. | ||
| Andrew Holker says, in Minneapolis last night, the protest was totally peaceful. | ||
| Hot dogs, burgers, prominent community members on the bullhorn, telling everyone to vote out our Democrat leaders and vote against gun control. | ||
| Wait, what, really? | ||
| Vote against gun control? | ||
| And vote against gun control. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, against gun control. | ||
| Dude, did you hear and see? | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| The Missouri Attorney General said that all of the looters and rioters they arrested were people who were released from prisons by the Democrat. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| I called it. | ||
| Didn't I say that? | ||
| Of course we did. | ||
| I said it. | ||
| I said it. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| I called it, man. | ||
| It's just kind of so obvious. | ||
| It's like they wanted this to happen. | ||
| There's something. | ||
| I mean, people keep tweeting about this Hillary court case yesterday and blackout. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know enough about it that we would have done a subject today. | ||
| Listen, man, I see it and I don't know enough about it, but I don't know, man. | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| If they wanted this to happen. | ||
| Obamagate. | ||
| If you wanted to argue that letting out prisoners was to ensure this happened, you'd be arguing they want to help Trump. | ||
| I don't, I think, but I'm seeing them blame Trump for this. | ||
| They're like, they're trying to pitch it on Trump. | ||
| They're like, all right, go incite violence. | ||
| Trump, you did this. | ||
| Bah! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'm like standing back. | ||
| I'm like, yeah, that's what it looks like. | ||
| Maybe, maybe. | ||
| I don't know if it's true or not. | ||
| It's like, I think they're just morons. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| I think they're absolute moron NPCs staying in a T-pose until someone walks in the room and then they go, release the prisoners. | ||
| And you're like, what? | ||
| That doesn't make sense. | ||
| Well, I mean, it didn't make sense during the COVID crisis. | ||
| We were all like, why are they doing this? | ||
| Why are they releasing prisoners and arresting people for going to the park? | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| To be fair, I did say there's questions of constitutionality of locking someone up if there's potential for an infectious disease. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Like if we knew they would get an infectious disease in this prison, do we have a responsibility to move them somewhere else? | ||
| The problem was that we later learned that lockdown made things worse. | ||
| So locking people in their homes and releasing prisoners made literally no sense because you were putting the prisoners into homes where they would get infected. | ||
| That was insane. | ||
| So it's like, the aftermath of all of this is that they let up prisoners. | ||
| These people went and rioted in St. | ||
| Louis and got arrested again. | ||
| And now the agency is like, oh yeah, look at that. | ||
| That was predictable. | ||
| It's like, what's going to happen? | ||
| Trump's got his easiest path towards shutting down the borders. | ||
| COVID happened. | ||
| Borders shut down. | ||
| What happened to the wall? | ||
| Remember the wall? | ||
| Yeah, you actually started saying this earlier. | ||
| You said, who has the most to gain? | ||
| Who's gaining the most from this? | ||
| Trump is. | ||
| I see all this anti-Trump stuff, and it's like, that's been the case. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Since he showed his face on the presidential race, it was just anti-Trump. | ||
| And it's like, well, it didn't work then. | ||
| And now you've basically just red-pilled everybody. | ||
| Well, here's my favorite conspiracy theory. | ||
| It's not really, but I often say it's my favorite. | ||
| Here's a conspiracy theory that I find interesting. | ||
| It's that Trump actually is an insider and that he was positioned as an outsider who | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hmm. | |
| couldn't win so that all of the disaffected right-wingers would rally behind him and feel | ||
| like they're taking back their government, an inversion to Obama. | ||
| That's one of the... | ||
| So the idea is that as long as Trump is considered constantly at odds and in a weakened position, | ||
| people will rally behind him saying, hey man, this is creepy. | ||
| This is not fair. | ||
| The blind liberals will be blind liberals. | ||
| So think about who voted for Trump. | ||
| It was people who didn't vote before now voting. | ||
| We're talking about record voter turnout. | ||
| This actually got a bunch of people engaged. | ||
| So it's an entertaining thought. | ||
| I don't think it's true. | ||
| I think they despise this man and hate his guts. | ||
| And I think they're more likely to be morons than anything else. | ||
| But I do think it's fascinating, this idea that Trump is benefiting from everything they do. | ||
| And it's true. | ||
| Like the impeachment, he raised a record amount of money. | ||
| So they're doing all of these things that make people rally behind Trump while treating him like an outsider. | ||
| And meanwhile, both Democrats and Republicans vote to expand FISA powers. | ||
| How does that make sense? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| It was like 84 people voted yes. | ||
| It's like, Trump is a dictator and he should have more spying power. | ||
| And all the guns. | ||
| That's where it becomes more of like the establishment as a whole, you know? | ||
| Then the people that, they don't care if Democrat or Republican, they just want that. | ||
| The establishment. | ||
| and they want to maintain that power. The establishment. | ||
| The establishment. The weird machine. Yeah, you know, it's like that can mean a lot of things, but you know, it's | ||
| almost like just a step back from Republican Democrats and they're like, we don't care, we have the power, whatever. I | ||
| think it's a fascinating conspiracy theory. | ||
| On this note, I don't want to lose it, it feels like Trump is upsetting their status quo. | ||
| Definitely. | ||
| Everything he does, it pisses them off. | ||
| They're cozying up with China. | ||
| I see Hillary talking about being homies with China, but they paid you a lot of money when you were In the government, in the position of power. | ||
| The Clinton Foundation? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Was China doing it? | ||
| I don't know a lot about the numbers from China. | ||
| I know Saudi Arabia was. | ||
| Well, I dug into it a little bit, and I was like, whoa, this is a lot. | ||
| And it's kind of frightening how cozy she is with him. | ||
| It's when I saw that video of her saying, well, why shouldn't we have China hack Trump's emails then? | ||
| And I was like, what are you saying? | ||
| Anyway, it's basically, you know, it feels like they're all, that's why the mainstream media is trying to, you know, they're the establishment also. | ||
| It's like that's their puppet, their speaker system to the masses. | ||
| I want to address this super that just came in simply because it's on point with what we're talking about saying. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| KingofDiamond says, Tim, you're wrong about making money in Minecraft. | ||
| I upload Minecraft videos and get like 10 views, but when I upload some video I lazily put together, like UEBS, I get a thousand views. | ||
| There's market saturation in Minecraft and a bunch of other channels, but the reality is I'm doing now, I do six segments, so it's like three hours and 40 minutes of content every day. | ||
| I would make a lot more money if I used all of my resources and power to be producing entertainment content. | ||
| Well, no, you worked. | ||
| You were working yesterday. | ||
| There are a lot of other political channels that are very good, don't get nearly the amount | ||
| of traffic or subscribers or growth because they don't work nearly as much or as hard. | ||
| That's no offense to them, it's just the reality. | ||
| I take no days off, ever. | ||
| Like when I have to, when my throat doesn't work and I can't talk. | ||
| No, you worked, you were working yesterday, all day. | ||
| Yeah, I had to take some ibuprofen. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And then afterwards I was like, I better not do it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because I think it's allergies. | ||
| But anyway, the point is, I have made content that's been about movies that is just like, I wake up and it's got like 300, 400k and I'm like, wow, man, if I, if I, you know, just because, because look, man, political stuff gets demonetized. | ||
| It's been a lot better lately because things have been improving for whatever. | ||
| Maybe it's just me. | ||
| I can't wait to talk about movies again. | ||
| I can't wait. | ||
| But it's worth more. | ||
| What you've got to understand about how ads work. | ||
| Right now, politics are getting views because people are looking at politics. | ||
| After November, well, it may actually get crazier. | ||
| But typically what happens is people want to buy ads. | ||
| And they don't want to buy ads on things like Riot. | ||
| They want to buy ads on things like Happy Fluffy Bunny and Kids. | ||
| Puppy sing, you know, barks, I love you. | ||
| That's what they want to buy ads on. | ||
| So, look at the videos that get the most traffic. | ||
| Nursery rhymes for kids. | ||
| Look at all of the YouTubers who did that stupid Elsa Spider-Man thing. | ||
| They made money. | ||
| They made mad money. | ||
| Politics is a dangerous game, and you're not safe. | ||
| You can make YouTube videos about, you know, Minecraft, or video games, or streaming, and if you work hard, and you're good enough, and you develop it over a long period of time, you will become successful, and you have very little risk that YouTube will purge you because you're family-friendly. | ||
| So that's right, just do more Diamonds. | ||
| Pump him out! | ||
| pump them out. Get better and better. It's just you know it's not it's it's there's no guarantee | ||
| that everybody makes it. I don't know how to just how to describe it other than you know when I | ||
| first started doing this I wasn't thinking about anything other than what's the next video. It's | ||
| like do something every single day no matter what. You know I gotta say though you you have a really | ||
| strong personality Tim. | ||
| Oh, does he? | ||
| Yeah, and that has a lot to do with popular channels. | ||
| I've been watching Crowder a little more, and dude's got a personality. | ||
| He's goofy, he's got a personality people like, and that's why he's got 4 million followers, or subscribers. | ||
| That has to come into play. | ||
| It isn't just persistence. | ||
| Yes, you do earn it, but... | ||
| Tell him to watch my videos, man. | ||
| Go watch my old videos. | ||
| Yeah? | ||
| And they're awful! | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Do you mean you started out bad? | ||
| Today, I saw there was talk about Trump who, you know, he was talking about this bill. | ||
| I doubt it was that bad. | ||
| It's bad! | ||
| And like the really early stuff from years ago, dude, it's bad. | ||
| It's like doing this every single day for hours, you get more comfortable, you get relaxed, you get better at it, you read faster. | ||
| I remember all of the other stories I've read. | ||
| So now everything's like instant recall. | ||
| Yeah, it's just built up over years of training exercise. | ||
| And so, you know, I worked for Vice. | ||
| I saved money. | ||
| I worked for Fusion. | ||
| I saved money. | ||
| I left. | ||
| Used that money, and it was all going down as I was doing this, and then slowly leveled out, and then started going up. | ||
| And my content has been slowly improving. | ||
| Yeah, but your personality is still laced in all of your videos. | ||
| It is. | ||
| You're still Tim Pool. | ||
| You still have a wit, you know, that I appreciate. | ||
| That's why we became friends. | ||
| Yeah, but my early videos were very, very, like, so much weaker. | ||
| Like, now it's like, I'll crack jokes, and, you know, I can go with things. | ||
| It's just, I go way better than I used to. | ||
| I'm not saying that you're not right. | ||
| I'm saying that there is an aspect that you're not talking about. | ||
| I agree, but I think people can earn it. | ||
| They can build that up. | ||
| Beginning of last year, until May, my videos were edited. | ||
| Meaning I would turn the camera on, I would say a line, stop, look at my script, look at my stories, say a line, stop. | ||
| Then look over and record it, and then I have to edit it all together. | ||
| It would take like two hours to put a 10-minute segment together. | ||
| Then I started getting better and better, and I just hit record, and I'm like... And it's just done. | ||
| That is literally what he does, everyone. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| I just turn the camera on, and I'm like, I have no script or nothing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's true. | |
| Just over time. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And that's... So I do believe that anyone can do it. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But I think there's, I have benefits from, for one, my personality that benefits me is arrogance. | ||
| That's really it. | ||
| I've done so many things throughout my life where I've ignored everyone else and went headstrong, traveled different countries, learned things, seen things, experienced things, and it helped me out in starting everything I'm doing. | ||
| A lot of people are poking fun at me trying to compliment you. | ||
| It wasn't even about Tim. | ||
| I'm talking about the people who are trying to make it in an environment that is literally about you being a personality and doing something. | ||
| You need a spark, a little something for people to want to watch you. | ||
| You need to have something that, like, I'm not gonna go search for a Minecraft video | ||
| and watch some, a video that's boring and nothing's happening. | ||
| It's like, but if it's a person who's like, oh man, a zombie, blah, blah, blah, like, | ||
| and you know, it's like, it's entertaining. | ||
| It's like, okay, it's entertaining. | ||
| You know? | ||
| You look at PewDiePie videos. | ||
| So you're saying that anyone can just earn that. | ||
| I don't necessarily agree with that. | ||
| Dude, look at Mr. Beast. | ||
| You know who that is? | ||
| No, I don't. | ||
| He's one of the biggest YouTubers right now. | ||
| He's nuts. | ||
| He made a video recently where he gave a pizza guy a house. | ||
| Oh, you showed me that. | ||
| Look at his early videos. | ||
| It's nonsense. | ||
| It's him just doing weird, unrelated things and eventually he found his space. | ||
| his his his space. Yeah. So I think. There's the cove it. I I think you can earn it if you work hard enough. | ||
| I really do. | ||
| And I think you have to consider the cards you've been dealt, the skills you need to develop, and the persistence. | ||
| You need a combination of factors. | ||
| And then here's what happens, right? | ||
| So in the past couple of days, I've gotten a million, like probably, I think like two million views per day. | ||
| Yeah, it's crazy. | ||
| So no, it's like 1.8 million views in a day. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Two million. | ||
| I'm bringing this up for a reason. | ||
| Stop, stop, stop. | ||
| I'm bringing this up for a reason. | ||
| These are, these are 50 to 60, 70% higher than normal. | ||
| Like ridiculous. | ||
| I'm like looking at my numbers on YouTube and I'm like, what is going on? | ||
| Because I've been working so hard, because I work every single day, when something like this happens, right place, right time. | ||
| Big boost in viewership, live viewership goes up, everything goes up. | ||
| If you don't work hard, you miss the opportunities. | ||
| So there are a lot of days where it's rough, and you're pushing as hard as you can, and you're like, man, is this it? | ||
| This is too difficult. | ||
| But you get through it, and then one day, all of a sudden, because you're working, chance favors the prepared. | ||
| And everybody else who wasn't working, they missed the train. | ||
| I agree with that. | ||
|

| Smash that like button. | ||

| These people are so stupid. | ||
| Like, dude, I'm gonna stand here and just mindlessly repeat people. | ||
| Dude, get a life. | ||
| And then people don't want to be losers. | ||
| So they're like, yeah, that is dumb. | ||
| Those people are dumb. | ||

| The I'm helping meme with Ralph Burgum. | ||
| That's so good. | ||
| I love that. | ||
| I'm like, that's a little too much for me. | ||
| I posted the... There's a comic where a guy's holding a Black Lives Matter sign. | ||
| It's a black guy. | ||
| And the next one is a white guy walks up saying, all lives matter. | ||
| And then the next one is a guy, a metal head walks up saying, no lives matter. | ||
| And then they all start rocking out. | ||
| The reason I really like that, though, is it shows you that, like, getting away from both ideologies resulted in all of them having a good time together. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So it's like when it was about all lives versus black lives, they were mad at each other. | ||
| But when the metalhead was like, no one matters, then they're all jamming. | ||
| I'm like, I kind of dig it. | ||
| It's the ideology. | ||
| Let's just hang out, bro. | ||

| They've done it. | ||

| This is the craziest thing to me. | ||
| It's from a skateboard company that used the word Antifa. | ||
| They didn't say protest or anything. | ||
| It literally said, due to Antifa... Activities? | ||
| No, it was like, yeah, incidents involving Antifa or something. | ||
| The facility where we manufacture our surfacing material was evacuated. | ||
| We're hoping to get you your materials as soon as possible, but unfortunately, due to these circumstances, it's being delayed. | ||
| And it's now gonna be another, uh, more than a week before they even get the materials. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Antifa, because of your shenanigans, I can't get my skate ramp. | ||
| Terrorists! | ||
| Indeed. | ||
| It's not the line, I'm kidding. | ||
| I don't care about waiting the week, it's stupid, I'm annoyed with it, but... | ||
| And whatever, man. | ||
| It's not the biggest deal. | ||
| I know they're all screaming like, Tim, racial justice is much more important than your skate ramp. | ||
| It's a joke. | ||
| Well, for the record, the skate ramp, I was out there today. | ||
| It works. | ||
| It works. | ||
| Still works, everybody. | ||

| Man, do you see the video of the tourniquet? | ||
| No, what? | ||
| No, I tell you what, man. | ||
| These kids are LARPing. | ||
| There's a kid who gets hit with a rubber bullet in the leg. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And he gets a surface layer abrasion. | ||
| A contusion or an abrasion. | ||
| Yeah, a little piece of skin came off. | ||
| Oh, he's bleeding. | ||
| He is bleeding. | ||
| Yeah, a little bit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And they put a tourniquet really close to the wound on his thigh, and he's crying, saying, I don't want to lose my leg to the tourniquet. | ||
| Top of his lungs. | ||
| And they're like, but we don't want you to bleed out, man. | ||
| Or something like that. | ||
| That's funny. | ||
| The tourniquet would make him lose his leg if they did it correctly. | ||
| No matter what, a tourniquet can take your leg away. | ||
| I'm sitting here looking at this. | ||
| His skin is scraped from a rubber bullet. | ||
| And there's some blood. | ||
| And they're applying gauze. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| And they put a tourniquet on his leg. | ||
| These people are acting out scenes from a movie they saw when they were kids. | ||
| They have no idea what they're doing. | ||
| They have no training. | ||
| Man, if I saw that, I'd freak out. | ||
| I'd be like, get that off his leg. | ||
| Are you nuts? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Now, fortunately, what probably happened was they put it on for no reason, applied the gauze, and then took it off because they're morons. | ||
| They didn't know what they were doing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But in the event that they were like, we've got to stop the bleeding and they left it on, what happens is the muscle starts dying and it starts toxifying. | ||
| And if it goes too long and you take it off, it rushes into your bloodstream and you can die. | ||
| You just poisoned yourself. | ||
| But you do have high-end six hours, but it can be bad within two. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| So when I did the training, they said it's last resort if someone's going to die, because you can lose your leg. | ||
| And they said you want to keep it within 45 minutes. | ||
| If you're not solving it by then, you need to start considering whether or not you're going to loosen this, take it off, and try and do something else. | ||
| Because, you know, if someone's going to die, then they're going to lose their leg. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| You know? | ||
| Wow. | ||

| Like, when I posted the video of them doing the Google Gobble thing, and I said, I'm not joining your cult. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And a bunch of people were like, thank you for posting this. | ||
| Because when you're surrounded by people who are yelling Google Gobble at you, and then you can see that people exist who are like, we're not in a cult. | ||

| Verified Twitter user. | ||
| It means Twitter has chosen you as a famous person. | ||
| That's all it really means. | ||
| For real, that's what it means. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| Look, I'm verified on Twitter and I'm not one of these morons, but these people get verified and they have like 500 followers. | ||
| That's really strange. | ||
| How? | ||
| Yeah, what? | ||
| Because Twitter chooses them. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| But this guy tweets something dumb and he's like, are you even seeing what's going on, Tim? | ||
| Have you even been on the ground or out of your house? | ||
| You have to realize what's happening around you. | ||
| And I'm like, I'm not going to respond to him. | ||
| I'm not going to say his name, but I'll say here. | ||
| I just drove across the country and back. | ||
| I was out for almost, for like two and a half, three weeks. | ||
| Went to LA and was hanging out and talking to people the entire way through the entire country. | ||
| I know more about what's happening in this country than you do sitting in your little Los Angeles apartment. | ||
| He talked to everyone. | ||
| It was great. | ||
| Yeah, for real. | ||
| It's like these people think their cult from social media is real life. | ||
| Yep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nah. | |
| They do. | ||
| Sad. | ||
| You're not real life, dude. | ||
| Go to the suburbs, man. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Gun Jesus. | ||
| I need, like, two big AKs. | ||
| You know the guy, what was that, Thor Valkyrie? | ||
| The guy who's like, these are my guns. | ||
| Oh, what was his name? | ||
| I forget what they called him, but I just picture me just like carrying them. | ||
| Yeah, where did you say they were? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah! | |
| He had way too much ammo in those guns, by the way. | ||
| I know. | ||
| That annoyed me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah. | |
| It's like you found two guns with two clips. | ||
| What's in each of them? | ||
| Like 15, 16? | ||
| And how is it still working? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's funny. | |
| But he eventually does run out. | ||
| After like a hundred rounds or something. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know what? | |
| I'm spinning the UFO for you. | ||
| Alright, let's do it. | ||
| Sean Williams says Antifa are domestic terrorists and enemies of the US. | ||
| Providing aid and comfort to the enemy is treason. | ||
| Bailing out rioters is providing aid. | ||
| We have a presidential campaign committing treason. | ||
| Well, I think that's a little over the top, but not too. | ||
| The issue is Antifa. | ||
| I think the problem with the media and the left is that they're taking Trump literally | ||
| on saying Antifa is a terrorist organization instead of what it really means. | ||
| It was a tweet, bro. | ||
| Did you look into what they actually said? | ||
| Bill Barr released a big statement about tracking down far-left extremists who are organizing and fundraising. | ||
| That's what they really meant. | ||
| I think it's funny when I see all these people I know are posting on Facebook, the anti-copy-and-paste propaganda. | ||
| It just means you're anti-fascist. | ||
| And so I respond to them, and, like, these are people I know, these are friends of mine, so they're respectful, and they're like, oh, I didn't realize that, thank you. | ||
| And I said, listen, what they're really saying is that the individuals who are being caught engaging in violence, what's going to be added to that is political motivation. | ||
| If you get someone who throws a brick through a window to steal a t-shirt, that's looting, vandalism, whatever. | ||
| Breaking and entering. | ||
| If you add the fact that they communicate regularly with ideological extremists, receive funding from, or give funding to, you've now added a terror charge to that. | ||
| That is the definition of terror. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, right. | |
| I think the principle legal definition they use. | ||
| I was like, all that means is that individual will be charged under those statutes. | ||
| They're not going to find a group of people who say they're Antifa and be like, we're locking you all up. | ||
| No, they're gonna be like, the individual who broke the law, we're adding this to the consideration. | ||
| It's like a hate crime, almost, you know? | ||
| It's like it's illegal to punch someone, if you punch someone for, you know, hate-related reasons, I'm talking about the legal, well then you get different charges. | ||
| I don't necessarily agree with it, but... | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| Louis, Louis says, Hey Tim, I went to Bass Pro Shop here in the People's Republic of Howard County, Maryland. | ||
| They were down to only a couple dozen rifles and shotguns left. | ||
| Most of the racks were empty. | ||
| When COVID first started, everything was, all the guns were stripped from, oh no, no, no, that, uh, no, no, no. | ||
| That was, uh, uh, at Dick's it was all, it was a bunch of weapons. | ||
| No, they were shotguns. | ||
| The shotguns were gone. | ||
| There was at least a hundred shotguns lying in the shelf. | ||
| They had them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Oh yeah. | ||
| Oh, we first went there. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They had them. | ||
| I thought they were gone. | ||
| And then and then we went back and they were gone two weeks later. | ||
| Was it? | ||
| I think it was two weeks later. | ||
| All gone. | ||
| Every single one of them. | ||
| I was like, yeah, there was guns there, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And the person behind the counter was like, yeah, yeah, there was. | ||
| It's not easy to buy. | ||
| It's not easy to buy a gun in New Jersey. | ||
| No, there's some better states for it. | ||
| Indeed. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| Joe Gilmore says, don't let these riots distract you from the fact that Biden let loot a massive and sad fart during a live interview. | ||
| Also, I bought a gun yesterday because 2020 has proven I can't trust anyone. | ||
| It's really, really funny seeing all of these leftists, like all these liberals, I should say leftists, wake up to be like, you know, I need a gun now. | ||
| Like all of these protests, everything's gone, like even me, honestly, you know? | ||
| Where are we at? | ||
| Connor says, greetings Tim and crew in Zen Buddhist pot-smoking left- I'm a Zen Buddhist pot-smoking lefty, libertarian hippie in the state of Maine, which is so far mostly peaceful. | ||
| Even with protests going on mostly peacefully, but even I bought a gun today. | ||
| And that says a lot, man. | ||
| But Maine is an excellent state for gun rights. | ||
| My understanding is there's like a concealed carry with no permit. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Like if you have an ID for the state, you can walk right in and be like, one gun, sir. | ||
| And then, you know, they still have the federal laws. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But then when you have it, you can be like, put on your shirt and do your thing. | ||
| Right on. | ||
| But I think the most important thing for everybody, even myself, is like, I did that basic training. | ||
| I did one. | ||
| No, I'm going to definitely hit up some instructors. | ||
| I'm definitely going to hit up some of the personalities. | ||
| Actually, one of the ranges, because I was looking for ranges around before COVID basically started happening, and there's a bunch around us, and one of them Was actually the owner shot somebody who was trying to break in this happened. | ||
| Yeah, but that was in Philly, wasn't it? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, but it's one of our one of the closest ranges is actually right across I'd love in the city Make yourself a target it depends on how Ideologically driven. | ||
| Yeah, you know the person maybe if it were me, I'd be like bring on the camera. | ||
| Oh I'm gonna let everybody know, you come to my shop, this is what you get. | ||
| But some people might be like, listen, I got a family, I just wanna lie low and do my thing. | ||
| But I have to imagine that experiencing all of that, it's really gonna embolden a lot of people and activate them. | ||
| For better or for worse? | ||
| I think for better. | ||
| But I'm optimistic, in general. | ||
| I mean, for worse in the sense that some people take it to a dark place. | ||
| And they might be like, it's just me and nobody else, versus, I need to defend my community, you know? | ||
| Like, the Hank Newsom thing with, like, we need to arm and defend our own communities is a positive thing. | ||
| The negative is the people saying, I'm going to go loot all these stores because it's going crazy. | ||
| But those groups are going to be like, no, you're not looting this neighborhood. | ||
| And then they'll go to the next neighborhood where there's another community of the same kind of people. | ||
| It's like, OK, so enough of that. | ||
| That's why it's a good thing. | ||
| I hope so. | ||
| There's still fears that misunderstandings can lead to, I guess, violence. | ||
| But I'm more optimistic than that. | ||
| I think if people have a sense of purpose and responsibility, these people who are being trained are going to have a patriarchal presence of somebody being like, here's what you do, here's why you do it. | ||
| And there's going to be a sense of nobility and honor in that. | ||
| They'll have respect. | ||
| It's wonderful. | ||
| I respect. | ||
| I'm worried, though, because people might abuse it. | ||
| People who want power shouldn't have it. | ||
| Alright, let's see where we're at. | ||
| Menace Blue says, Hey y'all, I recently emailed a letter to the Timcast website about Tom's River, New Jersey peaceful protest and the somewhat diminishing support towards Trump from minorities who originally voted for him. | ||
| Thanks for all you do. | ||
| Really interesting. | ||
| I think people have said to me recently that Don't we I don't realize how close it is that Trump might | ||
| actually lose, but I think that actually is a fair point I look I think Trump is gonna win and when I say Trump | ||
| landslide It's more of just like a half joke more of an exaggeration | ||
| Yeah, but I I think I think Trump is gonna win, but I do think it's it's it's not as clear-cut | ||
| Especially with like all of the people we know posting stupid leftist memes that make no sense | ||
| Yeah, a lot of these people are gonna blindly walk in the booth and go boo | ||
| D D D D D D, you know across the board. Yeah, I gotta say man. I will not vote for Biden | ||
| And that's a fact. | ||
| Trump? | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| But 2A, man, wow. | ||
| After seeing all of this, you can't deny it, man. | ||
| I think everyone's pro-2A at this point. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Like, I've basically... I mean, I always was, but... I still am. | ||
| But let me put it this way. | ||
| I've always been pro for it, but I've been this, like, reasonable liberal, like, well, maybe we can have a conversation about certain regulations. | ||
| That's all changed. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| The ideas that I had in my mentality a couple years ago about restrictions on guns and everything was based on the premise that things are relatively peaceful and calm. | ||
| It was a naive worldview of living in a bubble. | ||
| Now that the place I live, we have helicopters flying overhead and there's ransacking across the country, it's kind of changed my perspective pretty fiercely where it's like, I don't care anymore. | ||
| You have to be able to protect yourself. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Because the police could not do it. | ||
| Yeah, they straight up left. | ||
| No, I mean the cop straight up told me when he came here that one time, he was like, if it was me, I'd have a shotgun. | ||
| I'm like, I get what you're saying. | ||
| You know? | ||
| So that's been like a big wake-up call. | ||
| But not just for me, dude. | ||
| Because these people line up at gun stores. | ||
| What was it? | ||
| 40% of these guns sold in the past three months. | ||
| First-time buyers. | ||
| Yeah, dude. | ||
| And a lot of liberal districts. | ||
| These people are buying guns, man. | ||
| Hey, hopefully for the good. | ||
| For the better. | ||
| Lotus and Meier says, I have friends in the military. Your thoughts on the military joining | ||
| the protesters on the issue if asked to fire on civilians without cause? Enjoy your content. | ||
| Spin the UFO. | ||
| Oh, my thoughts. | ||
| It depends. I've talked to different people in the armed forces, | ||
| and I've gotten a couple different responses. Some people have told me, | ||
| under no circumstances would they fire on American protesters. | ||
| Like if you're in the National Guard of the Army and your commanding officer said, you know, open fire. | ||
| And I've had a lot of people say like, no way, dude, I would never do that. | ||
| I swore an oath of the Constitution. | ||
| I can understand the First Amendment and all that stuff. | ||
| And we have a duty to disobey orders that we think are illegal and stuff like that. | ||
| But I've also talked to other people who said definitely 100%. | ||
| And I asked them, if there was a group of protesters and your commanding officer said, aim, you know, open fire, whatever, would you do it? | ||
| And they were like, definitely. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| I have no idea why I need to. | ||
| And if I second guess them and it turns out this person was a terrorist or at a bomb or something, and then everyone loses their lives, I can only trust in the chain of command and trust in them to make sure we're doing the right thing. | ||
| And I'm like, those are two... I understand the argument for both, I do. | ||
| And I think it is a very, very difficult place to be in. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| Because it is a good point. | ||
| If they're telling you, like, look man, trust me, you know me. | ||
| It's not like some random guy shows up and says, go kill people. | ||
| It's like, no, it's your CEO, you know them. | ||
| You either trust them or you don't. | ||
| And if they tell you to do something... | ||
| But I can't say that I've gotten... I don't think there's one cohesive worldview, other than swearing an oath to the Constitution means most of them probably would be very cautious about anything related to shooting an American anyway. | ||
| But hey man, we've seen what happens in the Middle East with drone strikes and Obama. | ||
| All right, let's see. | ||
| I have to do this because we just had too many, and I gotta admit, we rant too much, so I'm gonna jump down. | ||
| We? | ||
| Me, for sure. | ||
| But that's why you come listen, right? | ||
| But I do apologize we can't get all your superchats. | ||
| Honestly, I do think we have to do some kind of superchat reform. | ||
| Thank you, everybody. | ||
| We're just getting, to be honest, as awesome as it is that you're all watching, too many views. | ||
| Thank you, everybody. | ||
| And too many superchats come in, and it's hard to actually get the superchats in. | ||
| Yeah, it's true. | ||
| So we just got a superchat in from Hank William who said, The only Democrat I would ever vote for would be Jon | ||
|
unidentified
|
Stewart. | |
| How do you and Joe still support that corrupt party? | ||
| I think the far left and the right have more in common than either do with the establishment. | ||
| What do you think about that take? | ||
| I no longer support any Democrats at all. | ||
| This was back during impeachment and COVID and I was completely, completely done with it. | ||
| I can't remember exactly what it was, but I remember we did an episode, and I was just like, nah, I'm out. | ||
| I'm out and completely out. | ||
| Just cut me out of it. | ||
| It's all corrupt. | ||
| And the fear is that... I get all these text messages from Democratic campaigns, and it's funny how some will be like, we are fighting the establishment Democrats, and we got an endorsement from this progressive, and they'll get another text saying, we're fighting against a far left blah blah blah, and I'm like, I don't like either of you at this point. | ||
| But I respond to all of them the same thing, listen, When the moderate Democrats who pledged to fight for American issues won, they turned around and just impeached Trump. | ||
| And so my fear is that no matter what happens, any dollar, any investment in these people will be an investment into shenanigans and nonsensical political, you know, tribalism. | ||
| So no, count me out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
100%. | |
| I'm not, I'm not getting involved with those people anymore. | ||
| Sorry, not interested. | ||
| Let's see, we'll do a super... Okay, hit the like button. | ||
| We've gone over because I have a problem with ranting too much. | ||
| And I apologize. | ||
| The first step is admitting. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| So I'm really proud of you, Tim. | ||
| Really proud. | ||
| So, yes, I do apologize, we're not going to be able to get to every superchat. | ||
| We got a big superchat here. | ||
| Uriel says, hey guy, Ridgecrest, California just got a 5.9 earthquake. | ||
| I lived two hours away and felt it. | ||
| Oh my gosh. | ||
| 5.9 is pretty strong, isn't it? | ||
| Yeah, it is strong. | ||
| Good luck, dude. | ||
| Stay safe. | ||
| That one just came in? | ||
| No, it was a while ago, but it was a relatively hefty superchat. | ||
| Oh, right on. | ||
| Much appreciated. | ||
| I can try to make sure we get to those who contributed the best. | ||
| A lot of the hefty ones. | ||
| I really hate doing it, but you know. | ||
| Now go up from there, because that's... Yeah. | ||
| But if you haven't already, smash the like button. | ||
| CJ says, congratulations to the new federal state of China. | ||
| That's where we're headed, man. | ||
| Not if we can help it, though. | ||
| The Lepardi says, I'm glad you picked up some self-protection. | ||
| I was the one who mentioned the responsibility of each bullet fired. | ||
| I'm glad you took that to heart. | ||
| Love the show and stay safe. | ||
| It is an extremely, extremely important point. | ||
| And there is a very funny meme of a regular suburban backyard and the fence is riddled with bullets and there's a target painted on it and there's like a little girl holding a rifle pointing at it on the other side is houses and like it's funny because a lot of like lefty liberals saw this and thought it was real and that that was the joke I guess the conservatives and like the gun rights gun owners because they're liberal gun owners knew the joke yeah they were like the joke is it's not real you don't fire in your fence into your neighbor's yard right but a lot of people were like this is why we need gun control | ||
| It's people, dude. | ||
| Cairns. | ||
| Cairns. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Cairns. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Big Ben Howard says, the chief master sergeant of the Air Force just came out preaching the leftist narrative about race. | ||
| The ranks are now in a civil war about what he said. | ||
| Leftists are winning in the military forms. | ||
| The left is winning everything culturally because of Death by a Thousand Cuts. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, you hate to see it. | |
| And you know what happens when they win? | ||
| This is racial identitarianism. | ||
| We've never seen that play out well anywhere. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| They argue it was bad when America had identitarian law, and it's going to be bad again? | ||
| I'm not going to be enjoying that. | ||
| Cyrilios says, Do you have any thoughts on the new trend on Facebook and Twitter of boycotting businesses that donate to Republicans? | ||
| Looting and riots are in blue states. | ||
| Why boycott Republican supporters? | ||
| Because mainstream media is part of that establishment, and the Republican Party at the moment is not the establishment. | ||
| It is messing their whole system up. | ||
| China has a part to do with it, I think. | ||
| There's a little bit in there. | ||
| You need only look at two stories. | ||
| The story from April, where the nurse was standing in front of the car, protesting. | ||
| And the other story is the nurses out in front of their office, praising the protesters. | ||
| With gloves on, gowns on. | ||
| With gloves on, gowns on, and masks, because they understand we're in a pandemic. | ||
| And that should tell you everything. | ||
| That if you are a responsible business owner and you're conservative and you want your rights and you want to run your business, they will shame you. | ||
| They will insult you. | ||
| And if you are a leftist who wants to complain about emotional issues and racial justice, things that don't actually contribute to the well-being of the products and the resources that we need to live, they'll praise you. | ||
| They'll protect you. | ||
| That bias is so plainly obvious that if you're Brett Kavanaugh, they will destroy you and your family. | ||
| They will try everything in their power. | ||
| And if you're Joe Biden, they'll dust under the rug and say it's fake news. | ||
| Yeah, that's what we can expect to get. | ||
| So I'll just I'll read a couple more because we have gone over. | ||
| And so I do apologize. | ||
| Let's see, Wexnip says, Back in college I asked a professor his thoughts on another American Civil War along political parties. | ||
| He said it was a dumb idea. | ||
| This was in 2008. | ||
| I kind of hope he's right and it's a dumb idea. | ||
| I don't think it'll be along political parties necessarily, because the Dem- No, who likes the Democrats? | ||
| The far left doesn't like the Democrats. | ||
| I don't even know anymore. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I have no idea who likes the Democrats. | ||
| I think, and I told some people this a year ago, that we would see some kind of race war or racial riots or conflict emerging. | ||
| But my assessment was based on the fact that we've already seen them. | ||
| I'm like, it's going to get worse. | ||
| And then you've got to realize what the logical conclusion is when a riot breaks out and you see what you saw in Milwaukee where they're yelling at the white people and stuff. | ||
| What do you think the escalation of that is? | ||
| People are only going to see race. | ||
| When conflict breaks out, they're going to be like, that group I can easily see based on their race. | ||
| And people start making assumptions. | ||
| And that's when it gets really, really bad for this country. | ||
| And I'm not going to be happy to see it. | ||
| Agreed. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Someone in the regular chat says, have you seen BLM saying police should be defunded? | ||
| I gotta be honest, if they were defunded to a certain degree, and people took their own responsibility for their own well-being, like we saw with Hank Newsom patrolling, I'm kind of okay with it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's what I was saying before. | ||
| It's like people are calling for that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I actually brought that up. | ||
| There's celebrities calling for it now, you know, like getting on there, using their platform to be like, yeah, defund the police. | ||
| And it's like, well. | ||
| If it results in a stronger Second Amendment, more personal responsibility. | ||
| If people step up, you know, like if they come up with neighborhood watches, like, dope! | ||
| Then we won't need to have as much police, so that would be okay. | ||
| It's really amazing where there's this overlap that kind of benefits everybody. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Community policing is what they've been asking for. | ||
| Now they're gonna have their own neighborhood watch. | ||
| They're gonna be defending the Second Amendment as they want to defend their communities. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Then they're the ones responsible. | ||
| So if one of these neighborhood watch guys ends up shooting an unarmed kid, there's no racial conflict. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| It's like, hey man, you lived there, you did it. | ||
| You answer to the community, and they'll have to deal with it. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| They will probably go easier on their own, and they wouldn't riot and destroy everything over it. | ||
| So maybe it's a good thing. | ||
| But let's read just a couple more. | ||
| Mike says, with all these protests going on, lots of people seem to agree that we need to reform the police force. | ||
| What is your stance on the S-3063 Law Enforcement Trust and Integrity Act of 2019 that's been in Congress since last year? | ||
| Unfortunately, I don't know what it is. | ||
| You want to pull it up real quick? | ||
| I'll look it up. | ||
| I have no idea what that is. | ||
| We'll pull it up real quick. | ||

| They control a lot of critical infrastructure. | ||
| Good work, Tim. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| Mr. Phil says, of course the chair force are the ones who are going lefty. | ||
| Caboose Kyle says, we are four million packages behind at UPS in Chicago because of the riots. | ||
| Oh no! | ||
| Four million? | ||
| Wow, yeah. | ||
| That's a lot. | ||
| Tom, thanks for becoming a member. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Samuel Arizry said, hi, I searched what are caustic liquids, corrosive substance, and then, what is this? | ||
| Peaceful protest? | ||
| Why are these things emerging? | ||
| Roy says, it's pretty mind-blowing that of 330 billion Americans, you only have Trump or Biden to choose from. | ||
| Best regards from Norway. | ||

| You are nailing it on the head. | ||
| Am I really? | ||
| Cool. | ||
| Properitarianism. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I just think, you know, people should be more responsible for themselves. | ||
| They should be more willing to work hard for what they need to accomplish. | ||
| Stop relying on other people so much. | ||
| We can still have great communities and work together and have fun, but we gotta be responsible for what we do. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| Mixed Cheese says, The mayors and governors wouldn't accept a defund for the police, since that is extra money from the federal government. | ||
| That's why police officers have quarters. | ||
| The Adjie says, We need to defund Hollywood and mainstream fraud media. | ||
| They're corporations who make ad money, unfortunately. | ||
| So, were you able to look it up? | ||
| I wasn't able to find anything about that. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| Well then, unfortunately for everybody, we have to go because we've gone over and we tend to because I talk too much. | ||
| It's kind of our thing now. | ||
| Well, you know, we have great conversations and this is a challenge because we try to fit everything in two hours. | ||

| Yeah, we do. | ||
| We absolutely do. | ||

For sure. | |
| And there's a bunch of stuff we didn't get to that I wanted to do longer segments on. | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
| But we do want to make sure we get to as many Super Chats as possible. | ||
| And then, you know, I rant too much. | ||
| So please blame me if you're upset I couldn't get to you. | ||
| I apologize. | ||
| I do. | ||
| I do mean it. | ||
| Blame him. | ||
| I talk too much. | ||
| And follow me. | ||
| I talk for four hours every day. | ||
| Now that we've been doing the show two and a half hours, I'm like four hours and ten minutes of talking a day. | ||
| Yeah, that's a lot. | ||
| Dude. | ||
| Yeah, I talk too much. | ||
| So someone said, read V's Super Chat. | ||
| All right. | ||
| How do I find that? | ||
| Oh my goodness. | ||
| I don't even know. | ||
| I don't think that's possible. | ||
| Yeah, I don't think I can to be honest because... V? | ||
| V spelled V-E-E? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Is there a way to search or something? | ||
| Can you control F it? | ||
| I don't think I can. | ||
| Did it work? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Oh, V live stream. | ||
| He says, V here from Romania. | ||
| We met in UK with Sargon. | ||
| Did you see the video of the Ferguson BLM organizer from November 6 claiming the organization is infiltrated by far leftists and they plan to start a civil war? | ||
| I didn't, but you did see it. | ||
| You want to explain it real quick? | ||
| That's it? | ||
|

|
I mean, yeah, that's basically what it is. | |
| He's like, I left. | ||
| I couldn't even be a part of it anymore because I was watching these people infiltrate and it wasn't the message. | ||
| It's true, man. | ||
| That was Occupy Wall Street. | ||
| That's why when Trump talks about Antifa, The media is, like, they've infiltrated media, too. | ||
| Yeah, of course. | ||
|

|
100%. | |
| I'm sure they have, yeah. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Extremists who want a revolution are manipulating good Americans, who are capitalists, because they want communism. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And that's why they spread this propagandistic message of, like, it just means anti-fascist. | ||
| Join our ranks. | ||
| And then what happens? | ||
| They make you sit down, put your hands up, and gooble-gobble back at them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
| Yep. | ||
| All right, okay, but I think we're about ready to kind of wrap things up, so if you haven't already, hit that Like button. | ||
| Hit? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Beat, mercilessly beat the like button. | |
| He looked at me like I slighted you personally. | ||
| Yeah, you're supposed to say it at the same time. | ||
| Adam got tricked. | ||
| Dude, I was so ready. | ||
| I'm like, smash. | ||
| Hit it? | ||
| Hit the like button? | ||
| Smash that like button. | ||
| I was a little disappointed. | ||
| Oh, and for those that don't know, V is a YouTuber. | ||
| So shout out to V. V-E-E. | ||
| You can search for his stuff. | ||
| I believe tomorrow I will be on Louder with Crowder after our show. | ||
| Oh snap! | ||
| So we're gonna do our show. | ||
| We gotta end on a timely manner. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then I think... So the plan so far, I believe... Gotta do it. | |
| Sorry. | ||
| Yeah, which means we do have a hard stop around 10 for tomorrow. | ||
| Tomorrow's gonna be a hard stop. | ||
| But then you can all jump over to the Crowder stream after the fact. | ||
| And then we got Friday's show, which is our jam show. | ||
| We play music. | ||
| So it's gonna be a fun rest of the week, I guess. | ||
| Hopefully the chaos subsides and we can all go back to chilling. | ||
| But until this COVID nonsense... I mean, it's over, but we're still stuck in the weird plastic mesh of whatever it was tangled up. | ||
| And their decrees of staying inside. | ||
| Except for the rioters. | ||
| Well, that being said, make sure you follow me at Timcast on Instagram and Twitter. | ||
| And you can follow at AdamKrigler on both as well. | ||
| But you can also send at AdamKrigler story ideas through his pinned tweets that we use for the show. | ||
| It's your path to getting information into the process. | ||
| And we do. | ||
| We really do cover what you guys send. | ||
| And then there's also Sour Patch Lids and her spicy memes. | ||
| There you go, spicy memes for your enjoyment. | ||
| Sour Patch Lids, L-Y-D-S. | ||
| We do the show Monday through Friday at 8pm. | ||
| Sometimes we're off because I work like an insane person, but we try our best and we put up clips throughout the day. | ||
| So you can also find us on iTunes and Spotify and all the other podcast platforms. | ||
| So I guess we'll see you all tomorrow. | ||
| Stick around, hit the like button, subscribe, notification bell, because we're going to be back tomorrow. | ||
| Thanks for hanging out. |
