tim pool
Hello, and welcome to the Tim Cast IRL Podcast.
Today's episode is brought to you by Orange Man Bad Orange Soda.
I'm just kidding, it's not, but someone sent this to us and it's really funny because it's Trump and his head is an orange and his hair is an orange leaf and I thought that was hilarious.
adam crigler
Let me see this.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Have you had your Orange Man Bad Soda today?
Come on, drink the Kool-Aid like everyone else.
tim pool
But hold on, Adam.
adam crigler
You'll fit in.
tim pool
Now I hear Orange Man Bad Soda is in fact not made with high fructose corn syrup.
adam crigler
That is correct, Tim.
tim pool
Wow.
adam crigler
They use pure cane sugar.
tim pool
Ooh, that's some good stuff.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
You know when you're drinking Trump-brand soda, you're getting the real ingredients.
I was doing a story once on water quality in Flint.
I remember that.
adam crigler
We were living together at the time.
tim pool
Yeah, I went there and I had to climb down to the river and scoop up river water with these sample cups.
I had this thing from NYU.
And so I went to a Trump resort in Florida, the Doral Golf Resort, and I got bottles of Trump water.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And I was like, we're going to run a mass spectrometer test.
adam crigler
On the Trump water?
tim pool
On the Trump water.
Cause I was like, it's probably fine, but could you imagine if it came back with like garbage in it?
adam crigler
Yes.
tim pool
It was clean and amazing.
adam crigler
Nice.
tim pool
Yeah.
They came back and they were like, it's, it's spring water with a Trump label on it.
What did you expect?
adam crigler
And then, then they informed you that there was uranium in the house water.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
That was our house though.
adam crigler
That's right.
tim pool
Not the Trump water.
adam crigler
That's right.
The house we were living in had uranium in it.
tim pool
But that's normal for farms.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Because of the fertilizers and stuff.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
Welcome to the Timcast IRL podcast.
We're hanging out, I guess, wasting some time.
lydia smith
Immediately off topic.
adam crigler
No, we're having a great time.
tim pool
Yeah, we're having a great time.
adam crigler
This is what I enjoy the most.
tim pool
You know, we're apparently under attack.
A cyber attack knocking out cell phones.
I don't think it's true, but this is what the rumor is going around.
I'm seeing a bunch of websites pop up and all these tweets are going out saying it's a DDoS attack, a distributed denial of service.
You know, it's China and all.
Maybe not, maybe not.
Maybe people are overreacting.
And we'll break all this down.
But over in the Chaz.
I'm sorry, the CHOP.
That's right, they changed the name.
The Capitol Hill Occupied Protest.
adam crigler
Yeah, they don't want their power being cut off.
They're like, no, no, wait, wait, wait, we're still US citizens.
tim pool
Yeah, we're just protesting.
We're protesting.
We're not autonomous.
We need water and toilets.
unidentified
Please.
tim pool
You know what I think it is?
I think they saw that in Chicago, they're taking dumps in tents.
Like, I'm not, no, not a bucket.
Like, in the tent.
lydia smith
What is wrong with them?
adam crigler
Where they're sleeping?
tim pool
No, no.
They set up a tent where you just like, you know, the poop tent.
adam crigler
Yes.
tim pool
And so I think, I think the Chaz people were like, uh, maybe, maybe we, we want the poop tent.
They realized being autonomous means they're going to turn the, you know, the water off the power off.
And so they enjoyed their toilets.
adam crigler
So they do have like 20 porta potties.
Like where'd they get those?
tim pool
At the Chazz?
adam crigler
And who's taking care of that?
tim pool
It's not hard to get a porta potty.
You call up the company and you pay a fee or whatever and then they clean it.
How are they funding all this?
It is mostly a hippie fest, but over in the Chazz there's a video going viral of this dude Raz giving some young man a rifle.
And I'll tell you what.
Now, look.
I'm all about people having the right to bear arms and everything, but handing some random kid, he goes, who knows how to use a gun?
And then some kid, like, he looks... I know how.
adam crigler
I played Modern Warfare.
tim pool
But then the kid immediately just looks around, like, confused, and he says, take the clip out, put it back in.
And the kid doesn't know what he's doing.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And then the screen, like, wipes, and it shows the kid with a mask on holding it.
And I'm like, did he just hand out a rifle to some random young person?
I'm saying young person because we don't know if he's 18, over 18, under.
Doesn't look like he's 21.
Maybe he's older, I don't know.
But the fact is that Raz is giving out rifles to people and he's this warlord of Chaz.
Or Chop, I'm sorry.
Chop.
adam crigler
Dude, I hope that kid doesn't get killed.
lydia smith
Seriously, that's messed up.
tim pool
But this is where we're going, right?
So, Steven Crowder, you know him, you love him.
He tweeted that he's never been more worried about the potential for a civil war because when far-left activists start seizing an area with guns, what happens when some other people with guns try and take that from them or try and kick them out?
adam crigler
Supposedly today was when the Hells Angels were going to show up.
tim pool
I don't believe it.
adam crigler
I mean, I think that was fake.
I couldn't see any proof.
tim pool
Right.
adam crigler
I don't know anybody.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
So it's like it was spreading around.
People were talking about it.
I guess they took a spot in California, though, didn't they?
I don't know if that's true or not, but.
tim pool
But also we're seeing something interesting happening in a bunch of different places in Philly.
We live in the Philly area.
A bunch of armed men surrounded a Christopher Columbus statue.
Actually, it roughed some people up.
Not super bad.
There was a guy from Unicorn Riot filming.
And so they, very much like Antifa, put on masks, went up to him, smacked his camera, pushed him around.
adam crigler
Oh, I saw that video, actually.
tim pool
And it's not the first time, it's like the second or third time these guys have shown up.
And, you know, these leftists are calling these guys far-right or right-wing.
And I'm like, bro, you don't get it.
These are just Philly Dems.
They're just like Philly dudes.
I doubt they're even political.
They probably vote Democrat because it's a blue city.
But these are just like 30 to 40 year old guys who are like, you come to my neighborhood, and they pull out a baseball bat.
That's all it is.
It's not political, man.
It's you come to my neighborhood with that stuff, the locals show up.
That's what's happening.
So you take that into consideration with these guys showing up to Chazz with weapons.
And what do you think's going to happen if someone comes to Philly with that kind of BS?
Yeah, hopefully it doesn't get to that point.
But then we got another funny story for you.
I'm assuming we're going to get to all of these.
In New York, 19th straight day of protests, I believe, right?
adam crigler
Yep.
Shoulder-to-shoulder protests.
tim pool
Shoulder-to-shoulder protests.
And guess what the mayor thinks is a top priority?
Welding the gate shut of a Jewish community park.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
tim pool
Something's wrong with this guy man.
He hates Jewish people.
It's not even a joke Yeah, he's repeatedly targeted the Jewish community while allowing these protests and then you look maybe maybe I'm being a little bit conspiratorial here, right?
But you take that into consideration with those protests and you sprinkle in a little bit of Chelsea Handler comedian on Instagram posting a Farrakhan video and defending him as people call him like whoa, that's anti-semitic and she's like Well, you know, I'm sure it was rooted in oppression.
I'm not kidding.
She was like, I think he became anti-Semitic because of his oppression.
And then people are like, you're so right.
So you add in, like Ice Cube was posting something they're calling anti-Semitic.
And people are posting photos of him with like, there's tons of pictures of Ice Cube with Farrakhan.
And then I'm not surprised that Bill de Blasio is targeting the Jewish community the way he is.
Anyway, anyway, if you're just tuning in, welcome to the show, man.
You can hit that like button.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Adam.
adam crigler
Smash it!
Smash that like button!
lydia smith
There we go.
Excellent.
Right on cue, of course.
adam crigler
Okay, I'm done.
tim pool
Yes, you can like the video, give it a little tap, or as Adam says, smash it.
You can subscribe, notification bell, and if you really do like the show, you can help us out by just sharing it, telling people we rock!
We're the best podcast ever.
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
Or whatever.
adam crigler
No, no, not whatever.
That's the truth.
tim pool
You gotta play it cool.
You gotta play it cool.
adam crigler
No, that's your job.
That's your job, not my job.
I didn't agree to that.
I didn't agree to that.
tim pool
Don't tell anybody about our podcast.
Who cares?
I don't care.
Whatever, man.
adam crigler
Or tell everyone about our podcast.
Tell them how bad it is.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
Tell them how great it is.
I don't care.
lydia smith
Listen to it.
unidentified
It's awful.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
Yeah.
lydia smith
Torture them with us.
adam crigler
I believe it.
tim pool
Before we jump into the first story, make sure you follow me at Timcast on Twitter and Instagram for, you know, complaints about random stuff.
I complain on the internet.
That's what I do for a living.
But you can also follow at Adam Kregler.
lydia smith
There we go.
tim pool
Because you can send him your story ideas for the show and then he goes through the list and we talk about the ideas and we very frequently pick them up and use them.
And of course there's always at Sour Patch Lids.
L-Y-D-S.
She posts spicy memes and also complains on the internet.
adam crigler
Feel free to send her story ideas also.
lydia smith
Yeah, by all means.
I'll make a little thread too sometime.
tim pool
So how about we talk about the cyber attack on the United States.
Fox 5, Washington D.C.
reporting T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon customers report widespread cell service outages.
So I was sitting in my living room watching, what movie were we watching?
Drop Dead Fred.
adam crigler
I saw Drop Dead Fred.
I haven't seen that movie in so long.
tim pool
It just came on.
I didn't pick it.
It was on autoplay or whatever.
adam crigler
It's proof that we're being hacked.
tim pool
I hear the movie's bad.
I haven't seen it in 30 years.
adam crigler
I haven't seen it in that long either.
lydia smith
Anyway, my phone wasn't working.
tim pool
Yeah.
And I was like, whoa, what is this?
And then apparently there's this massive cellular outage and people started tweeting like crazy about it.
But it's not just that there's an outage.
And we'll read the story to try and get down to the facts.
What's really going on?
But it's this story.
Check this out.
This person tweeted, I have no idea who this person is, but they're getting a decent amount of retweets.
This popped up on my timeline, and they say, yo, that DDoS attack was absolutely wild.
This was from, like, 15 minutes ago, and that wasn't even the peak.
So you can see right now, for those that are listening, I'll just describe it.
You can see that all of these, it's a global map.
lydia smith
Can we make it big?
tim pool
And a whole bunch of, like, lines are shooting out of different cities around the world and just slamming the United States.
Now, I gotta be honest.
This is eye candy.
This doesn't really explain anything about what's going on.
adam crigler
Indeed.
tim pool
Yeah, so, uh, these things, whenever these things pop up, everyone's like, whoa, look at this cyber attack, and it's like, well, well, well, hold on.
It may just be someone isolating general internet traffic, and it makes, you know, from, like, what the US is receiving, or its requests to the US, and so people will say, like, it looks like a DDoS attack.
It could be.
It could be.
A lot of people think it is.
There was a tweet that went out from Anonymous.
They say the U.S.
hit by major DDoS attack on June 15th.
However, it looks like this is not correct.
So my understanding is that what Anonymous tweeted, Yorn on Central tweeted out, they say the U.S.
is currently under a major DDoS attack.
For those that aren't familiar, it means distributed denial of service attack.
And apparently this map is not current.
I don't know.
What I can say is T-Mobile went down.
And apparently what happened then is because one network went down, it affected every network.
Because they're connected.
So I don't know exactly in what way it affected them.
I think it may be as simple as like, if I tried calling someone as T-Mobile or texting them it didn't work, and then I would report issues on my end when it wasn't.
But also, when people's phones stopped working, Then they would try and go on Facebook or Twitter or whatever, and then they would go on websites and be like, yo, Twitter is down, it's not working.
It's like they couldn't figure out what was going on.
Now, I do find that weird that people were, this is what people are saying, but here's what happened to me.
I couldn't make texts or phone calls.
But I was getting data.
Some things were working perfectly, and some things weren't.
adam crigler
Well, were you connected to the Wi-Fi of the house, though?
unidentified
No.
tim pool
Well, of course not.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Yeah, that was the issue.
My phone showed me that cell went down, but the data stayed.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
Yeah, and so I couldn't make phone calls, but I could go to websites.
adam crigler
That's weird.
tim pool
So I wonder if that has something to do with it.
I honestly don't know.
But let's read this and see exactly what this is all about, and then I will explain to you guys what a DDoS is.
They say, according to DownDetector, customers from across the U.S.
were reporting problems with their service, with a large number of reports coming from major cities including Tampa, Miami, Atlanta, New York, Chicago, Houston, and L.A.
Hundreds of comments on the website said customers could not place or receive calls.
Users flooded T-Mobile's Twitter account to report issues with their service.
Apparently, someone from T-Mobile said, Our engineers are working to resolve a voice and data issue that has been affecting customers around the country.
We're sorry for the inconvenience and hope to have this fixed shortly.
A spokesperson for Verizon said, DownDetector is falsely reporting Verizon network issues, and the company was aware that another carrier is having issues.
But comments from customers on DownDetector suggest that Verizon customers from LA, Denver, Philadelphia, Chicago, and other cities were experiencing issues placing or receiving calls.
But the Ryzen spokesperson said perceived interruptions to its service could be explained by the issues affecting other carriers.
A lot of factors can contribute to a false report on a third-party website, a faulty device, network traffic that slows but doesn't inhibit connections, commercial RF blockers, human error, network issues impacting other carriers, and more.
I gotta call shenanigans on that right now.
I'm not buying it.
Nah.
If somebody has a Verizon phone and they can't make any phone calls, I'm not buying their excuse.
Well, it could be an RF blocker.
unidentified
What?
tim pool
That's illegal.
Are you joking?
Like, someone's running a jammer on all of these people's phones?
Where, like, China pull up a truck and, like, turn on the cell phone off button?
Get out of here.
Something's crazy going on.
Sprint, which recently merged with T-Mobile, also appeared to be impacted, according to customers on Downdetector.
U.S.
Cellular, which apparently still exists, appeared to be impacted as well.
Both companies did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
So that's just the story, man.
Now, whether or not this is a real DDoS attack, I don't know, but people are pointing out that they're seeing massive outages across the board on Downdetector.
You know what I'm kind of leaning towards?
I think it might be an attack.
adam crigler
Yeah, I mean, we've spoken about it.
It's like, where are we weakest?
It's not our army, it's not our navy.
It's our infrastructure, like, our cyber infrastructure.
Granted, this is like, you know, phone carriers, but maybe this is just the beginning.
tim pool
Check this out.
This tweet here, it's not just phone carriers.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
That's why I'm saying I think it's my... So, Downdetector is showing that Walmart, Google, Simple Mobile, Fortnite got hit, Cricket got hit, Airbnb, Mint, Tracfone.
Do you know why I think this is more likely to be an attack?
adam crigler
Why?
tim pool
Some kind of infrastructure.
So, what some people are saying is... Could be just the beginning.
Well, here's the answer that I've seen from people.
They said, if T-Mobile goes down and you're trying to use your phone to go to Facebook and Facebook won't load, you'll incorrectly think it's Facebook.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Except if your phone doesn't work and you can't get online, you can't go to downdetector.com to tell them this.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
So, some people That was my question.
adam crigler
You were like, people were tweeting that it wasn't working.
I'm like, how are they tweeting?
How are they tweeting?
Was it Wi-Fi at their house?
tim pool
But it could be, to be fair.
And I still don't buy this excuse that people, because Facebook saw a spike too.
I don't think Twitter saw spikes.
That makes sense, right?
It could be that people's phone didn't work, so they went on their computers and then took to Twitter.
adam crigler
Maybe, yeah.
tim pool
But I don't see Twitter on this list.
So maybe Twitter was down.
I don't have that pulled up.
But everything, you know, seems to have some kind of disruption.
adam crigler
I heard Discord had a blip too.
Although I don't have any proof of it, but people were mentioning it in the comments.
tim pool
So, to explain to all of you what a DDOS attack is, it's very, very simple.
All you need to do is watch the episode of The Simpsons, where Mr. Burns goes to the doctor, and the doctor has the oversized novelty germs and tries jamming them through the door.
And I mean this literally.
So he basically explains to Mr. Burns that he's got every disease known to man, and this door is the gateway to his body, and because all the germs are trying to get through at the exact same time, they get stuck.
So a DDOS, Distributed Denial of Service, is basically this.
So you get a bunch of different computers all at the same time to make a request on one server and the server overloads and can't handle it all.
So it's basically blocking the door, all those germs being smashed in and nobody can get in or out.
So some people in the past used to liken it to like a digital sit-in, except it's actually a cyber attack.
Because what you got to realize, it doesn't leave permanent damage.
As soon as they stop the requests, the server will clear and then be able to answer, you know, calls.
But if a country like China or some adversary starts targeting our, I don't know, say, financial infrastructure.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Targeting.
adam crigler
Or power infrastructure.
tim pool
Well, power is a direct physical attack, right?
So if they target electricity and shut it down, that's a physical attack against us.
If they jam up phone carriers, they slow our economy down.
And that is a more subversive tactic.
So it's actually smarter.
I think, the reason I lean towards probably some kind of attack, it can happen all the time.
How often?
adam crigler
How often does it happen?
tim pool
I mean, there's ditto attacks literally every day.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
Yeah, there's some maps you can watch online where it's like, here's one, here's one, and there's, you know, assumed intrusions and stuff like that.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But we're probably getting hit by some kind of attack every single day.
adam crigler
Yeah, and we gotta remember, nobody's working still.
It's not like everyone's gone back to work.
unidentified
They're coming back, you know, slowly.
adam crigler
yeah two million two million jobs excuse me two and a half mil out of the 40 million that have
been out of jobs it's like people are still like sitting there on their phones all day long like
well you know hey what this blip like how long did it last you know it's obviously phones are working
now yeah Should be back.
Was it a little bit of a blip?
I don't know.
Is it a normal thing that happens often that we don't notice because we're busy working?
tim pool
No, definitely not.
lydia smith
Today's?
Okay, so I was finishing up stuff in here at like 4, 410 and I looked at my phone and I had zero reception.
tim pool
So this is hours.
lydia smith
Yeah, it was hours and hours.
tim pool
It was like four hours.
adam crigler
That's a long time.
tim pool
Yeah, man.
adam crigler
So this feels like a test.
lydia smith
I've not seen that yet.
adam crigler
It feels like stage one.
Let's see how much we can push.
tim pool
If this wasn't a tech, it was a mistake.
It was an accident.
So, uh, If they're actually going to try to attack us, they don't want us to notice.
Think about all of the business phone calls that didn't go through because of this shutdown.
Now imagine if they could shut us down without us realizing we're being jammed up.
They could slow the economy down, allowing them to grow faster than us, build faster than us, and that's basically an economic race.
We're trying to expand faster than they are.
Once we realize we're under attack, we show up our defenses, and then we take away their ability to hurt us.
Or they have to try and invest in new ways to come after us.
adam crigler
I think we should do that anyway.
tim pool
Oh, definitely.
lydia smith
Yeah, for sure.
adam crigler
What are we waiting for?
tim pool
This is the smartest thing, that whoever it may be, I think everyone's gonna lean towards China.
adam crigler
Yeah.
So, it would be to- I've seen like 50 China comments.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
Oh, totally.
lydia smith
For sure, yeah.
adam crigler
China.
tim pool
Hey man, they got 1.3 billion people.
We got 300 million people.
They got a billion more people than we do.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I'm not confident, bro.
I think Thucydides' Trap, I mean, so we've talked about Thucydides' Trap before.
For those that aren't familiar, it basically means that in the past 500 years, there have been 16 times when a dominant power was surpassed by a rising power.
In 12 of those 16 times, war broke out.
So a lot of people are saying we have a greater-than-chance probability that there will be a war between the US and China.
I am not confident that we will come out on the right side of that one, that we will survive it.
I don't think so.
adam crigler
With the word, with China, you mean?
tim pool
Yeah. And I think it might not, I think it might just be a complete collapse on the US's end.
What people got to realize that they haven't been following this stuff. China's been getting
its tendrils everywhere and everything in Australia and Africa and South America.
They were proposing building a Nicaraguan canal to bypass the Panama Canal.
Think about how crazy that is.
The Panama Canal is a crazy project to bridge the oceans, to get you through Panama.
Nicaragua is way more landmass.
And China actually was like, we'll do it.
We'll get people to dig a canal through it, and eventually it fell through.
But they're doing tons of stuff in tons of countries.
Mike Pompeo said, we've already been infiltrated across the board.
He said, you know, he gave a speech where he said to all the governors, it's affected you already from every level of government we've been infiltrated.
If that's the case, how do we survive this?
adam crigler
this is a as a tweet from uh... donovan hale someone tweeted on my page
cdn it's it fits perfect in this i'm just gonna read it says hi adam i'm a
listener from an affair from south africa i'm terribly concerned that you americans don't seem to
realize that you're the only ones preventing the ccp from taking over
the entire planet i don't want to be
droughted into a war against country i wish to move to So I guess he wants to move to America.
So please do whatever is possible to stop these hippies in Seattle.
You have no idea how vulnerable you guys look right now.
So obviously it's more than just this Chazz thing.
And it isn't just America that's crumbling.
We got Britain that's fighting each other.
France, there's a war going on right now.
It's not just us.
And then you probably think, what's going on in China?
They locked everyone in.
They've got everyone in a stranglehold.
And now here we're fighting each other and it's like, this is exactly where they want us.
tim pool
Look at what was going on in the United States for the past several decades.
With our politicians selling it to China at every opportunity.
adam crigler
Every opportunity.
tim pool
With our university professors taking money and then lying about it and getting arrested for it.
adam crigler
Yeah, they just found like, what, 14 more?
It's like two days ago or something.
tim pool
For those of you that don't know, there are these professors that are getting paid by China, working at our universities for, what is it called, like a thousand talents program or something?
adam crigler
No, I'm not really.
Yeah, I forget what it's called.
tim pool
Then they get grant money from the U.S.
So the U.S.
gives them money and says, do research.
Then they go to China and China's like, we'll give you some money too.
Why?
adam crigler
We'll give you more money.
tim pool
But so some people argue it's espionage, but they're not being charged with that.
They're being charged with fraud because they're lying to the U.S.
government.
I have one idea, and it's from my experience working at one of these lefty, ultra-woke news outlets.
These companies don't force you to write woke trash.
They hire people who they expect to write woke trash and pay them a ton of money.
adam crigler
Well, it's more correctly, write stuff that's going to get clicks.
Which happens to be woke trash because you got people on both sides.
I've seen people retweeting and posting stuff that's hilarious and cringey.
They're like, look how bad this is, look how cringey this is, and it's getting retweets and sending it around from both sides.
tim pool
Here's my point.
No one is forcing these people at Vox or BuzzFeed to write this garbage.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
They just don't hire the people who would write real journalism.
They hire the people who write garbage.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So I'm wondering if the reason these professors are getting paid by China is simply because they have subversive or ridiculous ideas.
So you think about it this way.
Let's say you have a really, really good professor.
He's really smart.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Teaches all these young people how to be strong and good citizens to help save the world.
But they don't make a lot of money.
So what China does is they find the really, really bad professors and make sure they live like kings
so that they're empowered to keep doing what they do. An awful job. Now I'm not saying I
know anything about these professors. I don't know if they're doing an awful job, but they're
certainly lying about it. But think about it this way. If you have 10 professors, five are really
good and five are really bad, and you make sure, like they're all underpaid, then the five really
bad ones you secretly pay so they have good health care, they have really comfortable houses and
and great food, they will thrive and their bad job will...
Yup.
in the kids they teach. Meanwhile the good professors are like, I lost my apartment man,
I've got to go somewhere else, I've got to move, or I can't do extra activities with the kids
because I need to moonlight another job or something. And then you've got half of those
adam crigler
who are just getting cancelled for trying to stand up for freedom of speech and just speak their
tim pool
minds. Now everybody's getting cancelled man.
adam crigler
Everybody.
tim pool
So, you know, a lot of people have been sending that Yuri, what is it, Yuri Bezmenov?
Is that it?
The KGB guy?
adam crigler
Oh yeah, from 1994.
tim pool
I mean, yeah, it's interesting stuff.
adam crigler
Not the book, the actual year.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
Right, right.
adam crigler
Just letting everyone know.
tim pool
It definitely seems like some seeds, potentially, were planted a long time ago, and they've started to take hold, and there's nothing we can do about it.
Literally nothing.
By the time you realize that your country has been subverted, you have too many people who believe in the fairy tale, and what can you do about it?
Especially a constitutional republic like ours.
Think about all these people.
Let's say it turns out we actually do discover that in the 1970s or whatever, the USSR started funding subversive programs to spread insane ideas that they knew would take root in the next generation.
You have an entire generation of people whose worldview is built on this insanity, and even if we knew it was true, they would say, I don't care, I believe it's true.
You can't change them.
And so now, the United States is on the verge of fighting itself.
That's one way to get rid of superpower.
Hey, you want to avoid world war?
Maybe this is why so many politicians over the past several decades sold us out to China.
They were like, you know, it's easier to just lay down and take the cash.
Otherwise war would suck, right?
We might die.
It makes me wonder about the past several decades.
All of our jobs moving to China, the TPP, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, Trump crushed it, would have allowed companies to move freely to China and send all their products right back to us, empowering them to control our medicine, all of our manufacturing, basically.
adam crigler
No, it empowered.
tim pool
Right.
It did.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
Or the TPP.
Right.
adam crigler
They have all the medicine.
tim pool
The TPP would have been tenfold worse.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And it was crushed by Trump.
Bernie wanted to crush it, too.
Now I wonder if, you know, man, you look at what's going on in these Democrat states where we've got Bill de Blasio straight up saying like, you know, you, you, you, you, you Jewish people in your park.
adam crigler
Show this stuff.
Let's talk about this.
tim pool
Let's switch over to this.
This is truly amazing.
It's a good job.
It's a good job.
I'm not trying to drag you guys.
But they're literally protesting right now.
Okay, this is from today.
4.26 p.m.
Monday is the 19th consecutive day of protests in NYC.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
And you can see all the people out and about, standing shoulder to shoulder, doing their thing.
But it's okay.
They're wearing masks.
lydia smith
Right.
tim pool
That's the thing, I guess, right?
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
Now, here's what the Jewish community has to do.
They have to actually use bolt cutters to pry open the gates because the city came and welded it shut.
adam crigler
That's so messed up.
tim pool
This is creepy stuff, man.
I'm sorry, dude.
I'm getting more and more creeped out every day.
You know why?
Chelsea Handler.
She posts a video of Farrakhan.
I don't know if you guys have ever listened to Farrakhan.
This dude really hates the Jews.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
And he's got a ton of support among high-profile Black Lives Matter activists.
Chelsea Handler posts this video.
It's on her Instagram right now.
You can go look at it.
Read her comments, and I'm telling you, man, these people, they're losing it.
It's funny because I really hate comparing everything to Nazi Germany.
adam crigler
But it's pretty easy to do so nowadays.
lydia smith
Yeah, they're making it hard not to.
tim pool
But they say the same thing about the right.
They're like, oh no, Trump.
And it's like, what is Trump doing?
His Supreme Court nominee, Gorsuch, just wrote the opinion in favor of LGBTQ rights in the ruling today.
lydia smith
Very Hitler-esque.
tim pool
Yeah, it's just like Hitler.
But you look at what Chelsea Handler posted, and this freaks me out.
Farrakhan video, where a woman opens by straight up saying, you've given up and you're basically a bigot who thinks we need to be separated.
And he goes, yup.
Chelsea Handler posts that like, wow, enlightening.
And then you look at the comments and people are like, I can't believe you would post this.
And she goes, no, you don't understand the one, the craziest one, I think.
But that's the same thing as finding a young Hitler before he killed everybody.
You think that would be good to post if he made his points?
And she said, the difference is that Hitler killed millions of Jews, and Farrakhan is
just an anti-Semite.
And it's like...
adam crigler
But that's the same thing as finding a young Hitler before he killed everybody.
It's like, what's the difference?
tim pool
Or they didn't say young, but they're like, if you found a video of Hitler or something.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
But the point is, like, if so, if someone is espousing Nazi rhetoric because they didn't literally lead the charge, you think that's okay, Chelsea Handler?
adam crigler
Yeah, what?
tim pool
Nah, I'll tell you what I think, man.
I think these people are overt anti-Semites, and the reason why I draw a parallel with Nazi Germany is simply because, I don't know if you've ever seen that photo, where all the people are doing the salute, and there's one guy like this?
adam crigler
Yeah, I've seen it.
tim pool
I'm like, I wonder what that guy was thinking.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I wonder what he was thinking as everyone around him just blindly was like, oh, you know, like, here we go.
And then I talked to my friends and boy, do they try everything in their power to justify the overt antisemitism that's come out of these people, these groups.
adam crigler
I don't understand that.
It's like they're trying to make sure racism stays alive.
Like, no, no, we gotta keep racism.
tim pool
I mean, it's worse than that.
adam crigler
Yeah, you're right, it's worse.
tim pool
It hasn't even been a hundred years since World War II, and now you've got... So you know about what happened with the Women's March?
Do you know what the Women's March is?
It was 5 million people protesting.
It was the biggest protest in the pussy hats.
And in Washington DC, the protest was so large that the whole protest march wrapped around and touched itself.
It was one ring.
It wasn't even a march anymore.
They were supposed to march around this area.
It just connected.
So you could like, wow, it's massive.
adam crigler
So, so if they were playing snake, they lost.
lydia smith
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
The organizers had to quit because they were just, it was discovered that they were overt anti-Semites who believed crazy conspiracy theories about the Jews.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
They were saying stuff like, they were saying crazy stuff about the slave trade.
And apparently like some of the, some of the other early organizers who were, this one woman who was Jewish was like getting freaked out.
Like this stuff's not real.
This is like white supremacist, like insane.
And they told her to shut up.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
And then it wasn't until, how long did it take?
Like six, seven months or something?
lydia smith
It took quite a while.
unidentified
Quite a while.
Yeah.
tim pool
It was an expose from a Jewish magazine that was like, do you realize who you're propping up?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And then you, like one of these women, like they're all associated with like Ocasio-Cortez and the progressive left.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
So here we, here we have, this is the, this is the, this is the, man, it's such a weird thing to me.
Black Lives Matter is an identitarian movement.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
On the surface, I'm not saying it's bad.
I dislike it.
It's basically like identity as a pretext for policy, political action, protests, etc.
You sprinkle in the fact that you've got Chelsea Handler now actively promoting Farrakhan, what Farrakhan has said and what he believes, and I'm like, so you have an anti-Semitic identitarian group?
unidentified
That really does overlap with the Nazis, man.
tim pool
Now, I know it's not white supremacy, but man, to see what Bill de Blasio has been doing over the past several months.
What was it?
In April, he went to a funeral service, arrested people.
And then in May, threatening them all again.
Now, it's not even... Look, man, I don't know if somebody wants to explain to me what's going on with this guy.
But what did he do?
He specifically targets the Jewish community by welding their park shut.
Let me show you what they did.
Let's play this clip right here.
So here's what looks like.
adam crigler
This is them opening it up.
tim pool
Yeah, let me make it bigger.
lydia smith
A bunch of rabbis, yeah.
tim pool
They have to actually get bolt cutters.
lydia smith
And they make it happen, man.
tim pool
Look at that.
Yeah, they do.
Now why does this keep happening to the Jewish community here?
Let me tell you something else, man.
That's freaking me out.
Do you know about the random attacks on Jews in New York that's been going on for a long time?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
How long has this been going on for?
lydia smith
Like a year.
adam crigler
A couple years, yeah.
tim pool
There's videos where just like people in Brooklyn will run up and just start beating on Hasidic Jews.
adam crigler
Wow, really?
tim pool
Yep, and that's everywhere.
So they formed something called... Do you know what the group is called?
lydia smith
Let me look it up.
tim pool
Yeah, there's a group of...
Uh, they have patrol cars that look like NYPD.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And it's got, like, an emblem on it.
And they call it... I don't know what the name is, because I'm not super familiar.
lydia smith
Jewish Defense League?
No.
unidentified
No, no, no, no.
lydia smith
It's something different.
tim pool
It starts with an S-H, I think.
lydia smith
Uh, the Shomrim?
Shomrim.
tim pool
There it is.
lydia smith
Unarmed and acidic patrols.
tim pool
Yep.
Hasidic patrols because of how bad the antisemitism has been getting in New York.
And look, man, a lot of these videos, the attacks are from young black men doing it.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
So I'm not saying this is a point of, like, I really, really doubt the entirety of the black community is OK with this.
I'm saying I think it's like a rare sect of people that are infiltrating, that are overtly antisemitic, but their views are getting, like, to the higher levels.
adam crigler
Adopted.
Yeah.
It's like they're infiltrating and appropriating all of these different movements and making it, like, subverting it all and making it their fight.
Like, by the way, this is the root of it all, is this, what we're claiming.
tim pool
You know what I think?
I think that the white supremacists and, like, neo-Nazi types are just sitting back.
They're just sitting back and watching.
Yeah.
I don't know for sure, I don't know what they're doing, but they kind of disappeared.
And now all of a sudden we have all these stories popping up of these specific things.
It's very strange to me.
I was talking to my friend earlier today, and I said, look at this video from Chelsea Handler.
And they're like, well, I mean, the video's really old.
And I was like, they just posted it.
But it's a video from the 90s.
What?
adam crigler
They just posted it, meaning they want you to see it now and read the words, listen to the words.
tim pool
And what's going on in the UK with Winston Churchill?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
So a bunch of protesters are threatening to tear down Winston Churchill, literally the guy who killed Hitler.
All right.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
And so they had to box it up to protect it.
Because Churchill's racist, they said.
I was talking to a friend and I said, can you believe they want to tear down Churchill now?
Isn't it weird that all these things keep happening?
Bill de Blasio targets the Jewish community over and over and over again.
Chelsea Hander promoting Farrakhan.
The organizers of the Women's March promoting Farrakhan and the things he said.
Doesn't strike you as odd.
Now they want to tear down Winston Churchill.
Maybe it's confirmation bias.
Either way, we shouldn't stand for this.
lydia smith
I think.
So I think this is just another supremacist group.
So I think the Nazis are obviously white supremacy.
This is something that Terry Crews was talking about when he was tweeting earlier.
He was like, being a black supremacist is not a good answer to white supremacy.
You need no supremacists.
We actually need equality.
He didn't actually kill Hitler.
think it's more supremacy. I think it's just it's the flip side of the coin that they're targeting
the same people. And for some reason they all hate Jewish people. I'm not sure why.
tim pool
So you want to know what my friend said to me when I said like Churchill literally killed Hitler.
Like this guy is a World War II hero. He didn't actually kill Hitler. He didn't pull the trigger.
No, but it was the UK leading the charge with the aid of the United States who stormed the
Like, the UK was the last bastion of Europe.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I know, I know, I know.
Look, people are going to argue it was Stalin who killed Hitler or whatever.
It was the Communists.
adam crigler
Didn't he kill himself?
Yes.
Didn't he shoot himself?
tim pool
But so the point I'm making is not that Winston Churchill literally walked in and went, Hitler mild, boy!
adam crigler
Time to go!
I just gotta poke fun at you when I can.
tim pool
But that's literally what she said to me.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
She said, no, Hitler actually killed himself.
I'm like, yeah, I know, but he was surrounded by Allied forces.
Yeah, but well, Churchill didn't do it.
And I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
The UK And the U.S.
stormed the beaches of Normandy, so I know we can give the U.S.
the most, we saved them for sure, but Churchill was one of the leaders who led the charge to do this, okay?
I'm being a little, I guess, hyperbolic in saying he did it, but you know what the point I'm trying to make is.
He was one of the leaders on the side that stopped the Nazis, and now it's, you know, like the desperate attempt to defend what is clearly in front of our eyes It's freaking me out, man.
adam crigler
Or how they're calling to take down the emancipation statue.
tim pool
What was that all about?
adam crigler
Abraham Lincoln.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
Oh, they vandalized that in the UK.
adam crigler
Him emancipating the slaves.
lydia smith
Right, exactly, yeah.
tim pool
But who said that?
I didn't hear.
adam crigler
There's like an online petition to take it down.
tim pool
You know what, man?
adam crigler
That's the president that emancipated the slaves.
lydia smith
Right, that's like Churchill.
tim pool
What?
I would normally say it must be a troll, but in the UK... I don't know.
No, no, listen.
In the UK, they vandalized a statue of Lincoln, and in Portland, they tore down a statue of Thomas Jefferson.
They tore down a statue of Jefferson.
They threw ropes around it, pulled it down, and they wrote slave owner on it.
It's like, yeah, man, if you go back in time, every single person who ever lived was bad.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Did you know that Certain indigenous people would literally sacrifice virgins?
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
We gotta cancel them.
We gotta cancel them.
They murdered innocent people.
They were abused.
It was misogyny.
lydia smith
Oh, man.
tim pool
No, we get it, man.
You know what I always tell people?
You gotta remember the good and get rid of the bad.
So, in order to build up a great society, we say, hey, look at these really great things that work.
Let's take these things.
Look at these really bad things that were, like, really awful.
Let's get rid of those things.
Like, we used to duel.
I was reading about dueling.
I was reading about dueling today.
adam crigler
Yeah, we talked about dueling.
tim pool
Yeah.
First it was swords, rapiers, then they got pistols.
So I was reading about it.
Apparently, uh, it wasn't really to the death.
No, it was just the act of dueling restored your honor that you weren't willing to back down.
And when it came to pistols, you know, people wouldn't often get hit.
And with swords, it would, they would disarm and win and be like, aha.
But the other guy who lost was still like, I stood for my honor.
lydia smith
I defended myself.
adam crigler
How can we do that nowadays? What non-lethal way can we bring that around?
tim pool
They got, I don't know, to restore your honor?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Well, it's been happening.
adam crigler
Online dueling?
tim pool
No, have you seen the boxing matches between like these e-celebs?
Oh yeah.
No, what's going on? Ted Cruz and Ron Perlman?
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Let's wrestle!
unidentified
Oh, that's right.
adam crigler
Yeah, basically, that's what I'm saying.
lydia smith
Internet dueling.
adam crigler
Yeah.
I mean, I see it all the time.
Honestly, on my tweets, I say, what should we talk about?
And someone goes, talk about this.
And then they'll be like, whoa, you're so wrong.
And then I watch the duels happen.
tim pool
Box it out.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
I'm like, wow, this is... And 90% of the time, someone ends up getting blocked.
tim pool
You know what?
Maybe this is why everything's falling apart.
Because we got rid of dueling.
lydia smith
I think you're right.
tim pool
Yeah.
Think about it.
You get two people on Twitter who are arguing with each other.
You say, hey, hey, hey, stop.
No more tweets.
adam crigler
Take it outside.
tim pool
We're going to bring you into the ring.
We're going to give you gloves.
We're going to have a ref on standby so nobody gets critically injured or anything.
And then you can box it out.
You know why that wouldn't really work, though?
adam crigler
I mean, that's a physical thing versus a mental thing.
tim pool
Remember the video of the Proud Boy knocking out the Antifa guy?
lydia smith
Oh, man.
tim pool
That's exactly why they would never win.
lydia smith
Right.
unidentified
It was instinct.
tim pool
That video, man, where the Proud Boy winds up and then boom!
And the guy just goes rigid.
lydia smith
Oh, man.
tim pool
These people, man, they don't know how to fight.
But let's do this.
Let's jump to the next story we have.
lydia smith
Let's do it.
tim pool
Which is kind of in line with them not being able to fight.
adam crigler
Oh, this is insane.
I can't believe you did this.
tim pool
The Chaz.
I'm sorry, the Chop.
unidentified
Oh, oh, oh, yes.
tim pool
I like Chaz better, man.
adam crigler
Whatever, it's Chaz.
You guys messed up.
lydia smith
It's so much cooler.
adam crigler
Y'all messed up by calling it Chaz.
It's Chaz now.
tim pool
Seriously.
adam crigler
I'm not calling it Chaz.
tim pool
Before we jump into this, if you'd like to get into the super chats, I just want to make sure everybody knows we won't be able to get to every single super chat, but feel free to, you know, chat whatever you can and we'll try and read them to the best of our abilities coming up probably after this segment.
And also smash that like button.
adam crigler
Smash it!
Smash that like button!
And I'll spin the UFO for you.
tim pool
That's right, it's not spinning.
lydia smith
Fair trade.
adam crigler
That's right, it's not spinning right now.
Okay, I need at least 5,000 likes before I spin it.
tim pool
The Chaz.
adam crigler
We're at 4.6.
I'm waiting.
unidentified
Okay.
adam crigler
Alright, go.
lydia smith
The Chaz.
adam crigler
The Chop.
lydia smith
The Chop.
adam crigler
Nope, Chaz.
tim pool
The Chaz.
lydia smith
Chaz Chop.
adam crigler
I refuse to call it Chop.
lydia smith
Chaz Up.
tim pool
So there's this place in Seattle, and I'm sure most of you know by now, but just because I have to, a bunch of lefties took over a six square block radius in Seattle.
They called the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone.
It's now the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest, though they dispute what the CHOP really means.
And one of the reasons people think they're calling it that is because, as they said, do you know what happened to people in the French Revolution who didn't get on board with revolution?
They got chopped.
lydia smith
They did get chopped.
tim pool
Adam is now spinning the UFO.
lydia smith
We are now spinning the UFO.
tim pool
We're in UFO spinning territory.
adam crigler
I was trying to do it all sneaky while you were talking.
unidentified
Well, check out this video.
adam crigler
Well, we got 5,000 likes and then 6,000 likes.
I was like, I have to spin the UFO.
It takes priority.
Take a look at this clip.
tim pool
It says, Raz is handing out AR-15s from the back of his Tesla.
lydia smith
I want one.
adam crigler
He's got a Tesla?
unidentified
What?
lydia smith
He's got a Tesla?
unidentified
That's crazy.
tim pool
This guy's got a bunch of rifles?
adam crigler
Dude, if you have a Tesla, you're living comfortable.
You're privileged.
lydia smith
He's got rifles for everyone.
tim pool
Isn't this the case with a lot of these Occupy, Occupation-style protests?
Rich people?
adam crigler
Trust fund babies?
tim pool
No, look.
It's always the people of means who have the ability to actually do this stuff.
lydia smith
That's true.
tim pool
So take a look at this.
It says, in Washington, to own an assault rifle, a person must be 21 plus, if outside their own home or business.
They can charge R.A.S.
with a gross misdemeanor for the first transfer to anyone under 21, then a felony for everyone after.
In this video, you actually see this dude R.A.S.
Now they've been calling him the Warlord of the Chaz.
lydia smith
It's more fitting now.
Holy cow.
tim pool
He walks up to his car.
He's armed.
And let me, uh, Let me try and jump ahead.
He pops open his trunk.
He says something like, you know, who knows how to use a weapon or whatever.
Here, let me make this bigger.
lydia smith
There we go.
tim pool
This guy right here.
In the sweater.
He walks up.
adam crigler
He's like, I know.
Someone took my GoPro.
tim pool
How old do you think this dude is right here?
lydia smith
20.
Maybe.
tim pool
Yeah, maybe 20.
adam crigler
I don't know.
He looks like he could be 18.
lydia smith
Seriously.
tim pool
So here's the first question.
adam crigler
But he could be in his early 20s.
I don't know though.
tim pool
Here's a question that maybe the chat will know.
adam crigler
He was holding it by the clip?
tim pool
What?
Here's a question that maybe the chat will know.
Can you legally just hand a rifle to someone in Washington to just use however they want?
Now you can see the dude walking around with these rifles.
So I'll tell you what, man.
I don't think you can.
argument that he gave a rifle to someone under the age of 18 or under the age of 21.
In my opinion, you know what I find really funny?
Where are all the gun control lefties to be like, you shouldn't be able to lend a gun
to somebody?
adam crigler
I don't think you can.
I don't think that's legal.
tim pool
I think you can in some places.
adam crigler
I don't know.
tim pool
Can you, are you, are you allowed to take a weapon and be like, here you go.
They're saying no, you can't do that.
adam crigler
Nope.
Overwhelming no.
lydia smith
No, no, no, no, no, no.
adam crigler
Well, I don't know if you've actually asked yet or maybe you did, but it's an overwhelming no.
Anyway, I feel bad.
This Raz is going to get that guy killed.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
Yep.
adam crigler
That whoever it is, it looks like a kid, but if he's over 18, he's a man, he's an adult as far as we're concerned in this country.
So he was given a gun.
He was holding it like this, holding the clip of the gun.
tim pool
Raz called it a clip.
adam crigler
I see people being like, it's a magazine, not a clip!
tim pool
So he says, take the clip out and put it back in and the kids clearly don't know what he's doing.
It's a magazine.
adam crigler
Yeah, I guess it's a different kind of guns, different.
tim pool
So he says, take the clip out, then put it back in, and the kids clearly know what he's doing.
I say kid figuratively, I don't know how old he is.
So look, man, I gotta say, I'm kinda concerned about some random young person
who clearly has no idea to handle this weapon.
Just being handed it.
adam crigler
Man, he's gonna get him killed.
tim pool
So here's what Crowder said.
Steven Crowder of Louder With Crowder tweeted, In my lifetime, I've never feared witnessing an actual civil war.
But when an American city is taken over by lawless criminals with guns, can anyone be surprised when citizens try to take it back?
Also, with guns.
Turn back now, please, Chaz Chop.
First, I know exactly what the lefty media's gonna do here.
You know what they're gonna do?
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
Steven Crowder, without evidence, claimed that far leftists with guns took over an American city.
As we all know, a six-block portion of Seattle's been occupied.
The way Crowder described it, that's the media takedown tactic.
Oh, he says an American city's been taken over.
False.
Nothing to worry about, everybody.
Carry on.
Because the New York Times and all these other media outlets are praising what they're doing, saying everything's fine.
I love it.
adam crigler
I don't get it at all.
tim pool
CNN in one day, Oliver Darcy writes, armed Antifa aren't taking over the space.
If you listen to the right, here's what they'll tell you.
On that same day, an on the ground reporter talking, I believe it was the same day,
talking to Anderson Cooper said, now Anderson, you got to realize these people are armed and
there is a potential for bloodshed should law enforcement try to take it back. So what was-
adam crigler
There's a leader of Antifa like in there talking about, look, I don't even agree
with everything they're doing here. But I forget.
He's got all sorts of piercings, I don't know his name, I forget.
There's a bunch of well-known- He admits that he's without Antifa, and he's like, I'm not with them, but I'm here because this is where the action's at, and I'm gonna stay here and do what I need to do.
Now, I don't agree with them, but I don't care.
tim pool
Here's what they like to do.
CNN says, Antifa's not even a real group.
It's an idea.
It just means anti-fascist.
Then as soon as you get that idea, walking around with guns, and they call themselves, like, John Brown Gun Club or something, they go, well, no Antifa here because, you know, no one from the organization is here.
It's like, wait, what?
You were the one who said it was an idea.
So now that we're saying, yes, the people there of these various groups like Rose City Antifa and Puget Sound John Brown Gun Club, those are Antifa-affiliated organizations.
They operate as sales independently, but they have leaders, they have weapons, they clearly buy stuff.
Right now there's video going around where apparently these John Brown Gun Club people are in vehicles with no license plates.
adam crigler
Yeah, I saw that.
tim pool
So, yes, they're there.
They're active.
Now look, man.
I don't think... Man, I want to keep leaning on the side of this is probably going to be silly and kind of just wash away one day.
I don't know, though, man.
adam crigler
I don't know.
They're starting to deconstruct, man.
They're beating up.
some some kid who who i guess stole money out of uh and some keys out of a car car lot they beat him up they took him and raz was standing there like trying to let tell tell them to let go of him and the dude who had him was like you shut up yeah and i was like whoa he told raz to shut up and then started to beat The daylights out of this guy.
tim pool
They already assaulted somebody.
adam crigler
So it's like, they don't have law and order.
It's what I was saying.
unidentified
Warlord.
adam crigler
It's a lawless place.
They have a warlord.
And the warlord's not even in control.
The guy, he was, you see Raz clear as day telling the other guy to stop.
We're gonna try to figure this out.
And the dude was like, nah, I'm from the hood.
I'm not some celebrity.
I forget what he said.
It's some, what does he, what does Raz knows for?
tim pool
He's a...
lydia smith
SoundCloud?
adam crigler
SoundCloud rapper.
He's like, I'm not a SoundCloud rapper.
I'm from the hood.
And then he knocks this dude out.
Pummels him.
tim pool
Raz does.
adam crigler
No, no, no.
Raz is down there trying to get the guy to stop him.
The guy's like, no, you can't stop me.
You shut your mouth.
tim pool
Oh, he said, I'm not like you, a SoundCloud rapper.
adam crigler
I'm going to do this.
tim pool
I watched a video where they surround a guy and they accuse him of being a thief.
And they're like, why'd you run?
Why'd you run if you didn't do anything?
It's like, bro, let me tell you.
If a mob of lawless people with guns and baseball bats and pitchforks are screaming, burn the witch, I'm running!
I'm not gonna sit there and be like, hey, I turned myself in to you guys who clearly have no cohesive thought in your brains.
All you are is just a mindless mob saying, burn the witch!
Yeah, I'm running.
But that's a sign of guilt to them.
Man, it's like...
I was gonna make an analogy, but I know it's gonna offend some people.
unidentified
Do it.
tim pool
Libya.
Do it.
Libya after the fall of, uh, what was his face?
unidentified
Gaddafi.
tim pool
Gaddafi, yeah.
All the rival gangs started fighting and it was just chaos in the streets.
I know Libya was much, much, much worse than a bunch of dumb hippies dancing in the street.
That's why I'm just making a light analogy that you've got roving factions trying to assert their random authority over a random place.
It doesn't work.
adam crigler
Yeah, Chaz is not just a hippie zone.
Definitely not.
tim pool
You know what, man?
adam crigler
That's on the surface, maybe.
tim pool
When I saw Occupy Wall Street and I saw this, I'm like, I know what Occupy was like.
I really think this will just get washed out eventually.
But the fact that you've got people like Raz handing out rifles to people, they're not playing games.
I mean, let me rephrase that.
They're literally playing games because they're morons and they don't realize how bad it will really get.
adam crigler
Yeah, until that kid gets killed.
tim pool
But they're playing for keeps.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
I think so too.
I hope so.
None.
adam crigler
And he'd be a target because he'd have a gun.
tim pool
Yeah, seriously.
by now he's probably given the gun back.
adam crigler
I hope so.
tim pool
Could you imagine what would happen if people started shooting?
That kid would have no idea what he was doing.
lydia smith
None.
And he'd be a target because he'd have a gun.
adam crigler
He might shoot himself.
tim pool
Or some innocent people.
adam crigler
Or someone right next to him without knowing.
tim pool
So you've got, you know, the point that Crowder is making.
What's to stop some armed... I don't want to say right-wing, necessarily.
But, you know, there was a preacher who showed up, and he had a megaphone, he had a speaker, a PA, and he was trying to preach.
So a bunch of people grabbed him, pinned him down, held him, and stole his stuff.
adam crigler
You know the same dude who is one of the Antifa leaders from Portland?
He was saying, I run Antifa in Portland, was one of the people that was choking that dude.
tim pool
Yeah, I saw his picture.
And Andy Noah's report on who that guy is.
So what you need to understand about Antifa is that it's a cell organization type group.
Antifa dates back to Weimar, Germany, I believe I'm pronouncing it right.
Where the Communist Party had a paramilitary wing, anti-fascist action.
They flew that flag.
Antifa today uses propaganda to say, it just means you oppose fascism, right?
They're actually revolutionary communists.
One of the highest profile Antifa websites is run by a group called RevCom.
Revolutionary communism.
And they literally wear uniforms and they have boots and they goose step at protests.
We see them all the time.
adam crigler
It's ridiculous.
unidentified
Boom.
tim pool
It's like, no, no, they're there.
down there, the guy you're talking about who is pinning down this preacher, is part of,
I believe, Rose City Antifa.
A branded cell.
So I see this propaganda popping up all over the place.
There's no such thing as Antifa.
adam crigler
No, no, they're there.
They're openly saying that they're there.
tim pool
Right.
But this is well-to-do liberals who don't actually read the news.
They just get their information off of CNN, and then they see memes.
And so I write this really long, thought-out post explaining, very neutrally, what Antifa is, without criticizing.
I'm just like, here's how they operate, here's what they do.
And then people are like, oh.
And I explain to them very simply, the reason Donald Trump wants to designate Antifa terrorists Doesn't mean literally they're going to take us the word
Antifa and place it on top of a board that says terrorists It's so that if somebody throws a brick through a window
They say vandalism if somebody is wearing the Antifa patch and throws a brick through a window
They say terrorism because you are using violence to push a political ideology definition of terrorism. Yes
I'm not saying I'm a big fan of the Patriot Act stuff I'm not at all.
I'm just trying to explain to you what Trump was trying to do with that.
So here's what I think might happen.
You get the John Brown Gun Club.
Affiliated, like this guy, what was his name?
Willem Van Spronson?
lydia smith
Willem Van Spronson, yeah.
tim pool
Shows up to an ICE facility, I think last year or the year before.
lydia smith
Last year.
tim pool
Last year.
With a ghost AR, so home-built rifle.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Firebombs, and starts just bombing the ICE facility.
Torches one of the vehicles, wasn't able to get the building.
I believe he was shooting at the police, they shot and killed him.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
That was Puget Sound John Brown Gun Club.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
The same people who are walking around the CHOP, the CHAZ, with rifles.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
So in the U.S., they can't do anything about that, their affiliation, because of the First Amendment.
You have a right to express your opinions or whatever.
But the point is, if these Puget Sound guys do something terroristic, I wouldn't be surprised if they get charged under terrorism statutes.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Or these Rose City guys.
But I'll tell you what, man.
It's funny.
It's not a game to these people that a preacher on an American street gets thrown to the ground and pinned down by multiple people as they steal his stuff.
And they tell him, you can't be here.
unidentified
I don't know if he was an official preacher.
adam crigler
He was preaching, for sure.
tim pool
Right, right, right.
So I don't mean to say that he's literally affiliated with the church.
In America, you're allowed to stand where you want and speak.
So think about it this way.
adam crigler
Well, at the time, they were still Chaz, which would be their own country, they were claiming.
So now they've changed it to Chop.
tim pool
Because they were colonizers and they were concerned, like, uh-oh, we conquered this land.
lydia smith
What does that mean?
adam crigler
Yeah, because they had an army marching at them.
They're like, no, no, no, we're still, this is still America.
tim pool
I don't know if that's the real reason.
adam crigler
I'm saying it.
tim pool
But here's the point I'm trying to make about this preacher guy.
They got scurred.
adam crigler
They should be.
tim pool
You've got this preacher.
He's got his PA system and he wants to preach.
He said, I want to speak about a king or whatever.
He's clearly going there to defy them.
adam crigler
Definitely.
tim pool
Now, what happens when the next... Then we saw some people walk through with American Flex.
adam crigler
I mean, and for the record, that same kind of person goes out to the streets to defy everyone because they think everyone's a sinner.
You know, I've seen them in New York.
You've seen them in New York.
They stand there and they preach to everyone.
tim pool
Have you ever seen that video where the guy tries to punch the preacher and he catches his fist?
adam crigler
Yes.
I saw that.
And he goes... It's funny the smile that comes on his face.
tim pool
I'm not a big fan of these guys.
You know why?
adam crigler
Why?
tim pool
I've actually tried talking to them, and they don't... they tell me nothing, because... The preachers, you mean?
Yeah, not all of them, obviously.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's like, but whatever.
Let them talk.
I'm not gonna listen.
I don't have to listen to you.
tim pool
I'm not super concerned about a preacher showing up.
I am concerned about Antifa, literal, known, branded cell Antifa actor who's been arrested before with his mugshot being released, pinning a guy down with the help of others to steal his stuff because they don't like what he's saying.
adam crigler
And then do you see the video of him being completely unconscious dragged down the block?
tim pool
That preacher guy?
adam crigler
Same preacher.
tim pool
Oh, I didn't know that.
adam crigler
Completely passed out completely.
He was out cold.
They were just dragging him down the street.
tim pool
Wow, man.
adam crigler
I mean, you don't see what happened beforehand, but I mean, you put it all together.
I'm pretty sure they messed him up.
tim pool
A couple people wearing American flag bandanas, carrying American flags, walked through.
And then someone happened to steal it from them.
Clearly going there to defy the far-left protesters.
How long until the same thing happens, but this time they've got four guys standing in a formation with AR-15s?
adam crigler
I'm surprised we haven't seen it.
tim pool
And then at what point, you know, they've got their, you know, they'll have a Confederate patch, or an American flag patch, or three percenters, or Oath Keepers, and then one of these John Brown Gun Club guys, or this dumb kid who sees them and panics and says, what do I do?
And so he holds a weapon and he points, and then the actual trained legit guys are like, drop it, drop it!
And they put him down.
adam crigler
And they will.
tim pool
Or the kid fires.
Or the kid sees them and panics.
adam crigler
And starts an all-out man.
That's what I see happening.
Because he clearly had no idea what he was doing.
He was like, oh yeah, I want to play this video game.
This video game's dope.
Look, he's got a Tesla, a new Tesla with guns in the back.
Yeah, let me get one too.
tim pool
Seriously.
adam crigler
Cool.
What do I do with this?
lydia smith
What do I do?
tim pool
Playing for keeps though, baby.
adam crigler
What do I do with my hands?
lydia smith
That's a real gun, dude.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Look, I got a hard optimism bias.
I don't believe this could happen.
I have an optimism bias on this one.
It's just, nah man, life is stable, America's great, everything's fine, it's a silly protest, nothing's gonna happen.
adam crigler
Oh, that's refreshing.
That's nice to hear from you.
tim pool
That's an optimism bias.
adam crigler
Yeah.
But you've gotta- You call me an optimism bias, that's me all the time.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
I mean, I don't mind.
tim pool
I'm very optimistic.
You have to resist the optimism bias.
It is a fallacy.
It will get you killed.
So I have been in so many situations in conflict where you're like, nah, there's no way that could happen.
And then boom, it happens.
Molotov goes flying, explosion happens.
And you're like, don't assume what you expect.
You got to think about what's possible and, you know, and where you are.
And too often, you know, we look at what's going on in Chaz.
You've got something very different from Occupy Wall Street.
Occupy Wall Street didn't ever even, I think, what's the word?
I don't think anyone from Occupy ever actually broke anything.
Except the sink in the Burger King.
Because across the street from Occupy was a Burger King and they would go to the bathroom there and then somebody was like leaning on it and it broke.
They were like taking a shower in the bathroom.
lydia smith
Oh, nice.
tim pool
You didn't have people smashing windows and stuff.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
You did have like one dude take a dump on a cop car or something like that.
But over the past 10 years, things have really escalated in terms of how these protests go out, and now it's been fires and destruction and burning vehicles.
Now you've got seemingly normal people in New York throwing Molotovs, like these two lawyers, throwing Molotovs.
Life in prison.
They're facing life.
You consider all of these, all of the psychosis that's been building up for a long time.
These people are nuts, man.
I heard somebody was preaching and they said that it was a Black Lives Matter activist saying they were tired of their people being genocided.
And I'm like, bro, isn't it the single digits?
Like the amount of unarmed black men who have been killed in this past year or whatever?
adam crigler
Nine in 2019.
tim pool
And that's bad.
And I believe we need to place reform, and we should deal with that.
But come on, bro.
He was saying it was genocide, and they believe this stuff.
They are going insane.
We are in—violent crime is down across the board.
Better than it's ever been.
Lethal crime is way down.
Lifesaving phone calls are up because of cell phones, meaning people are more likely to get treated.
Poverty is reduced to nothing because of capitalism, and I think we're facing the results of our success, a lack of purpose.
So then you end up with a desperate need to fill that purpose, so people create a purpose and say that people in this country are being genocided or something nonsensical, and you get zealots, fanatics, who literally will tear down Thomas Jefferson, who will deface Abraham Lincoln, who will demand Winston Churchill, this is the UK now, And they show up to Seattle thinking they're in the revolution, and they bring guns, and they give them to young people who clearly don't know what they're doing.
So listen, I'll put it this way.
I have an optimism bias.
I really can't imagine a scenario where we get that call where someone texts you and says, are you okay?
Are you okay?
What happened?
And you're like, whoa, what happened?
And then they're like, oh, I just heard about this, that, this happening, you know, near you.
When I was in New York when that black identity extremist killed those two cops.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Right by our house.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
Literally like within a block.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
The first text I got was, are you okay?
adam crigler
Outside of the deli I went to probably every day.
tim pool
Probably only a few hours before you went and got a sandwich or something.
adam crigler
Seriously, every single day I would go to this deli, and I would walk right past that spot every day.
tim pool
We would have Magic the Gathering night, and I would go to the deli and load it up with HoHos and Twinkies and KitKats and other nonsense and bring in big bags of nasty snacks.
We're like, yeah, from the deli.
And then right in front of that deli, two cops got executed.
I get a text saying, are you okay?
And I'm like, what happened?
And then all of a sudden a helicopter, like 20 feet over my building swoops over and I'm like, what the?
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
I couldn't believe it happened in front of my building.
adam crigler
They were minorities too.
tim pool
Like down the street from me.
So that's what I'm worried about.
It's like everything's been so calm and stable for us here in the U.S.
I think most Americans have an optimism bias.
Bro, I remember, you know, three years ago I was in a group chat with a bunch of political reporters and stuff.
And I was talking about my fears for a civil war.
And there were a couple people just saying, like, that'll never happen, you're wrong, it's impossible, and saying all these things.
And I tried to explain to them, like, how I think it could happen and what would happen.
And a lot of people who follow me know that this is what I described.
Antifa getting more aggressive.
And it's not hard to predict because it was literally happening.
It's not like I'm saying, like, I'm looking into the future and the lottery numbers are these.
I was literally like, wow, man, if Antifa is going to do this and the right's going to do this, what do you think's going to happen next year if it gets worse?
And they would tell me it won't get worse.
It's over.
The security state is too powerful.
So that's my fear.
You wake up at three in the morning and you're like, your phone's going crazy.
And it's like your mom being like, turn on the news, turn on the news.
And it's like gun battle.
Seattle streets.
Maybe not.
Like I'm saying, optimism bias, but what's going on in France right now?
adam crigler
Well, I mean, it's gang wars.
I don't know if it... I don't know what... See, it's the pandemic, I feel, is the root to a lot of this.
People were...
Locked in.
tim pool
40 million bored people.
adam crigler
People don't know how to do that comfortably.
We're a social species.
We're used to going out and living our lives normally.
When you take the base fundamentals of life, when people already didn't have a purpose, you take away whatever thing they did have, and people are going to go crazy.
I don't care who you are.
You lock someone in their spot for whoever knows how long, you're going to get cuckoo.
tim pool
Three months, no job, no boredom.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And then you inundate them with this video footage of all this crazy stuff.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Their mind snaps.
adam crigler
And it's not just here.
It's like everywhere people locked down.
The whole planet was locked down because of COVID.
tim pool
This is why I think they didn't like Jordan Peterson.
You know what one of the things Jordan Peterson would tell all these people who listen to him?
Find the heaviest thing you can carry and carry it.
He was telling people to make their purpose, to find their responsibility.
lydia smith
Do it yourself.
tim pool
Yeah, do it yourself.
adam crigler
And that's actually something that's interesting.
Like I mentioned on Friday, it's like I see a lot of issues with politics.
So I'm actually contemplating getting into politics.
If everyone feels that there's something wrong with politics, Get into politics.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
And that's not what they're doing.
They're just going, they're wrong.
They're bad.
And it's like, well, why aren't you going and fixing it?
Getting into politics and trying to make a difference or becoming a cop, becoming a police officer, to be that police officer in your neighborhood.
Where are these people that are actually going out and doing these things instead of just complaining?
tim pool
You're talking about the underlying ethos of feminist academia.
So there's a meme comic where it's like, Yeah.
A woman reads a pamphlet where it says like there's no women in STEM and she's shocked
Yeah And then she goes to college and then the next panel's like
she comes out with a gender studies degree holding a sign saying more
Women in STEM. It's like go go join a STEM field, right?
But here was the point I make about Jordan Peterson when he comes out and tells people hey, man, like find your purpose
Clean your room. Yeah, that's bad for the revolutionaries fine
adam crigler
It's real bad.
tim pool
The revolutionaries need idle hands.
lydia smith
Disenfranchised people.
tim pool
They need the right and the left to be disenfranchised, because an angry right is the enemy to rally everyone against, and disenfranchised leftists can join your ranks.
But if you get a self-help guru who's like, clean your room, and then they start doing it, you're like, no, stop, stop being responsible, stop fixing your life.
adam crigler
Be angry, be angry at the bad man.
And it's like, no, you're the bad man trying to convince me to be angry at everyone.
It's like, no, I want it.
We want to be like together.
That's what I keep seeing it.
Their worst fear is us holding each other's hands, you know, lifting each other up.
It's like, that's what we need to focus on.
We need more people like that bringing us up, bringing everyone together and lifting everyone up.
tim pool
They want to manage the conflict, so they can use it to gain power for themselves.
adam crigler
Yeah, you know, you talked about, what's Serena Williams' husband's name?
tim pool
Alexis Ohanian.
adam crigler
Okay, so he left his job, and he dedicated 60 million dollars to whatever, and you know, I thought about that after that episode.
I was like, you know what?
tim pool
Well, so let's get some context real quick.
unidentified
Go ahead.
adam crigler
Go ahead.
tim pool
Give some context.
Alex Sohanian co-founded Reddit, which is now one of the most prominent social media sites.
He recently announced he was stepping down from the board.
He wants them to replace him with a black man or a black person, I think, and that he was going to be dedicating all of the earnings off of his holdings to programs to help, you know, the black community.
adam crigler
Right.
So I'm not necessarily I'm not talking about the first part of that.
The second part.
He is well off.
He doesn't need all the extra money, income from that.
So for him to give it to a community that needs it, that is amazing.
And I didn't do this before, but I'm clapping for you.
Because that's amazing.
That's what we need.
I'm not a millionaire.
I'm not a billionaire.
If I was a billionaire, I wouldn't need a billion dollars.
I would be Pumping it into everywhere I can.
When I see people like that, and he's like, you know what?
I made a lot of money.
I could take these millions of dollars and pump it into a community that needs it.
It's like, yes!
We need that.
I always felt bad since that episode.
It's been on my mind.
tim pool
I don't know what his... That's what we need though.
What is Alexis' liquid reality?
In terms of his assets, how much are stock?
How much can actually be spent?
I'm sure he's got more than enough to live.
That's a start.
As far as I can tell, maybe aside from Vladimir Putin, no one's got liquid dollars in the amount of a billion, right?
adam crigler
Yeah, sure.
tim pool
It's stock or stuff.
It's tied up.
They can move it around.
unidentified
They're rich.
adam crigler
But it's a start, though.
That's what we need.
We need to start moving forward.
tim pool
So I I can respect the fact that he's saying like I've got enough.
I'm good.
I'm gonna give to other people Yeah, and Jack Dorsey announced he was gonna give a billion dollars, right?
And I I do think the issue here is the identitarianism in both of those moves They're saying like Jack Dorsey said I think he said women program women's programs girls and Alexis Ohanian said black programs and I'm like If it's private charity in that regard, do whatever you want.
But I just want to be careful because the next step above that is involuntary.
So there's a New York Times story that talks about how Republicans give more in charity, but Democrats give more involuntary charity.
Right.
So it's funny, they were like, while Republicans do give more to charitable causes, Democrats actually spend more per capita in charitable issues through involuntary means.
adam crigler
Involuntary?
tim pool
And I'm like, you mean to tell me that they're being taxed and they don't want to do this, so they're doing it because they have to?
So my concern is...
As long as we don't cross that line of government mandated racial pretext for redistribution of wealth.
adam crigler
Well, I'm not even touching into the racial part of it because I feel like we've talked about this.
You know, we have to fix what, you know, the lower class areas that need the most help.
And yes, it does.
It links, it merges with a racial issue because there happens to be a lot of minorities in these areas.
tim pool
For historical reasons.
adam crigler
But they're not getting the same amount of schooling.
We gotta fix that.
tim pool
Well, I think school's trash.
You're right.
I don't think anybody should go to school.
adam crigler
Education is a whole other conversation that we can talk about because I agree with you completely.
The education system's also messed up.
tim pool
Look, it's this simple, bro.
We have these people arguing that systemic racism quite literally means that black people have less generational wealth, which I've talked about.
And because of that, we need to help black people.
And I'm like, you are correct.
And the way you do that is through class-based issues.
So you will, by your own argument, disproportionately help the minority communities because you claim they're disproportionately poor or in poverty.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, some rich neighborhood doesn't need help, does it?
Do we need to help them?
tim pool
Right, they don't, but here's the issue.
When you come out and say that, you know, the Asian community is underprivileged.
They're not, but I'm just using it as an example because it's like, I'm part Asian.
The Asian community is underprivileged, therefore we must give money to Asians.
Would I get money?
I don't need it.
That's ridiculous.
Just because of my race?
No, no, no, no, no.
What you need to do is you need to give it to people who actually need some kind of help.
Now, I'm not a fan of giving.
I'm a fan of teaching.
So, you know, you give a man a fish, teach a man a fish, that whole saying.
So I think what we need to do is class-based solutions and it solves everyone's problems.
But guess what?
Guess what?
The revolutionary Marxist-Communist people, They don't want that.
adam crigler
They're standing in the middle of Chaz saying, what looked like a white guy saying, look, you need to go find a black person and give them $10.
And I was just thinking to myself, like, how degrading is that?
tim pool
Like, walking up to, you know... You need this more than I do.
adam crigler
Look, here.
You need this.
I don't.
You clearly need this.
Is that not degrading?
tim pool
Well, hold on.
adam crigler
I would be, like, pretty pissed off if anyone came to me and did that.
tim pool
Sure, sure.
In my worldly travels, I was warned.
adam crigler
Oh, tell us.
tim pool
In some countries, you do not tip.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
It is an insult.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
Yeah, so I was told that in some Asian cultures like Japan or China or South Korea, tipping is an insult.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
It's how you insult them by saying, clearly, you can't afford to pay your staff, your service is poor and your business is bad, so you need this more than I do.
They don't, they think, if I give you a number, now in recent times, I've been told that they realize the stupidity of, you know, the pride.
Just take the money.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
But that's a, it's a funny point.
If somebody walked up to me and said, I realized that you're not completely white, so I want to give you $10.
You know, my response would be, thanks bro.
Just take the $10.
Yeah.
unidentified
Sure.
lydia smith
That's 10 bucks, man.
adam crigler
So if you know, yeah, but that attitude, it's not, it's not solving anything.
It's not, it's, I know you're not going.
I, you know what?
I hate white people less now.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Thank you.
All right.
No, that's not, that's not working like that.
That's not doing anything.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
I think solving any, any systemic issues that they're marching for.
tim pool
There was a, uh, an article that was going around from like critical race theory people, the woke left.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Specifically saying that they need to start eavesdropping on conversations from mixed-race people.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
You know why?
adam crigler
No, tell me.
tim pool
No, they're not going to tell you this.
I'm just making an assumption.
adam crigler
Okay, okay, you're making an assumption.
tim pool
Oh, because when you go to a white person whose only experience is their white family, you can easily convince them that they can't understand your plight.
You don't understand what we've been through.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
Then you go to a minority family and say you don't understand the privilege they have.
And so there was this viral threat from a woman claiming that she was going to buy a house.
And she was told by the loan officer, it's common for people to get gifts of $50,000 to $100,000.
adam crigler
Oh yeah, I saw that.
tim pool
And she's like, this is what white privilege is.
The problem with mixed-race families is that they have white family members,
presumably mixed-race meaning white, to be honest.
adam crigler
I see, okay.
tim pool
Which is often what they mean.
So, for me growing up, having a dad who's white, I'm like, why you ragging on my dad?
Like, that offends me.
Oh, but I'm also, you know, technically a minority, right?
The smallest minority in the country.
So, all of a sudden, what I was saying to them, it got really bad.
When they would say things about white people, I would be like, what about my family?
That my family was negatively impacted by the policies you enacted, even though we were, like, the most marginalized community in the country, just because of the race of my father.
adam crigler
But this is so stupid, because white people are poor too.
tim pool
Right.
adam crigler
There's more poor white people.
It's like, you think all white people can just afford to give a hundred grand to the first-time house owner?
tim pool
They do think that.
adam crigler
That's not the case.
It's ridiculous.
tim pool
But listen, they think that.
adam crigler
Yeah, I know.
That's the problem.
tim pool
But that's why I was saying that the idea of a white mixed family breaks that apart.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
They keep pushing this racist narrative that's trying to divide us.
It's ridiculous.
I can't stand it.
tim pool
They, in my opinion, a lot of this comes from revolutionary lunatics who need a catalyst for the destruction of the country.
I've talked to them.
It's not a grand conspiracy.
These are fringe weirdos who work in these activist groups that do these kind of weird things, and they straight up said, you know, from the ashes of the old, we will build the new.
So they're like, let it all burn.
Let it fall apart.
And I kid you not, I know some of these people who voted for Trump.
Cause they were thinking like, wow, Trump will really destroy everything.
Then you had like three years of prosperity and like the expansion of like American nationalism and stuff.
Now they're maybe going like, oops.
adam crigler
I just watched V for Vendetta and right now what's happening, it feels like that scene where the high chancellor is getting all pissed off and he's like, man, we need to, you know, spread start reminding the the citizens of why they need us
like yeah tell and then it's just like the news is just constant like oh man hurricanes terrorist
attacks covid19 racial issues and it's like this is the democrats
The Democrats were the original, like, racists in this country.
Nothing's changed.
You know, it's interesting because you see many black people out there going, what is going on?
Like, I love Trump.
We've had the lowest unemployment rate Forever.
This is like, all of us have jobs now.
What are you guys, what are you talking about?
We're making moves.
This is what we wanted.
tim pool
You know, I can say one thing.
Who was that guy who said at least Trump hasn't started any new wars?
lydia smith
Oh, Mills, I think.
tim pool
Is that who it was?
lydia smith
I think that's who it was.
tim pool
That was Mills who said that?
lydia smith
Gates, sorry.
Yeah, Gates.
tim pool
He said at least Trump hasn't started any new wars.
lydia smith
I was like, at least?
Seriously?
That's like the greatest thing he could do.
tim pool
Well, I mean, regardless of what he meant by it, I'm like, that's actually a good point.
It was funny, somebody posted on Facebook and they were like, I really miss Obama or something.
And I'm like, oh, this is my time to shine.
adam crigler
Oh, you love it when people say that, don't you?
tim pool
And I'm like, you appeared on my timeline.
adam crigler
Honestly, I didn't know half of the stuff about Obama that you told me about.
And I'm just like, is that real?
tim pool
You know the Animaniacs song where he sings all the countries?
unidentified
Yes.
No.
tim pool
Do you know Count Dankula did one too where he names all the countries?
adam crigler
I have seen that one actually.
tim pool
So it would be funny to write a song of all the horrible things Obama did.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Like, I don't know, extrajudicial assassinations, the indefinite detention provision in the NDAA, the expansion of the authorization for use of military force in the Middle East, the expansion of our troops in Afghanistan, the use of the Espionage Act against more whistleblowers than any other president in history combined.
They called him the Deporter-in-Chief.
Black Lives Matter started under Barack Obama.
Under Barack Obama, the perception of race relations decreased.
Come on, man.
The dude was responsible for the expansion of the drone strike program, which literally blew up children and civilians.
And you know what he did when they would kill civilians?
They decided one day to just be like, well, how old were the civilians?
Well, they were between the ages of 18 and 30.
Military age?
Yeah, fighting age.
Fighting age!
We'll just call him fighting age.
So that's how they tried to get around killing civilians.
My favorite story.
Yeah, Benghazi.
Man, I mean, come on.
Fast and Furious!
You know what that was?
When they were giving guns to cartels!
Man, you want to talk about Obama?
Nah, I'm sorry.
So Trump's got all his problems, man, but not starting a new war?
That's actually kind of a big deal.
lydia smith
That's a huge deal.
tim pool
So you know what, man?
I say, fool me once, shame on you.
That's why I voted for Obama the first time.
I was like, yeah, it's something different.
You know, everybody told me all this good stuff about it.
I remember being in Chicago and people cheering and I'm like, Wow.
He's like an outsider.
He wasn't even in politics.
He was like a local community dude.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And then he gets in and it's like the one ring.
As soon as he got it, it was like, cast it into the fire.
unidentified
And Obama was like, no.
adam crigler
I kind of wanted a little bit more, but that's pretty good.
tim pool
Nope, he walked out of it and he put it on.
And that was it, man.
So, you know, it really is a tough period in terms of the upcoming election.
It's crazy.
It feels like there's a constant attack on my brain.
I read news all day every day, and I don't just read one source.
I read forums from the left, forums from the right.
I read mainstream corporate Democrat articles.
I read hardcore Trump conspiracy sites.
I read everything.
I want to know what people are thinking and why they're thinking it.
And I really cannot reconcile everything I'm seeing on the streets with burning buildings, with the data proving riots make Republicans win, with them coming out with data claiming Biden is going to win, with the betting odds.
adam crigler
That's ridiculous.
Maybe.
tim pool
I don't see it.
You know?
Look, man.
adam crigler
Well, if he's got the betting odds, like, I'll bet against him.
Make more money that way.
unidentified
I think so.
tim pool
Dude, I know people who made a lot of money in 2016.
unidentified
Yeah, I'm sure.
tim pool
Because it was like 10 to 1.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Some people were like, I figured it was 10 bucks.
I won 100 bucks.
I was like, wow.
I didn't care about the 10 bucks.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But the bookies were convinced, like, you're going to lose your money.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And they ended up having to pay out for it.
I know some people who made a couple grand.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Because I know some people who are legit convinced.
They're like, I know he's going to win.
You're wrong.
He's going to win.
He's going to win.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
So maybe that's it.
Maybe go, go put your predicted bets on Trump to win.
But I'll tell you what, man, if you think you've, if the Trump supporters, you think you got this one in the bag.
Nah, I don't buy it.
In Patterson, New Jersey right now, there's a huge controversy because 20% of the mail-in vote was disqualified.
unidentified
Oh yeah.
tim pool
And now a leader of the NAACP is calling for the election to be completely nullified.
And there are people complaining, why was my vote disqualified?
They said that around 3,000 or so votes is a local election.
The signatures on them did not match previous signatures.
adam crigler
Yeah, but the Democrats don't want that to happen.
They're like, we've worked so long and hard to set this up.
The election must go on!
tim pool
No, no, I think they do.
I mean, so, look at what happened with 2016.
adam crigler
You think they do what?
Want the election cancelled?
tim pool
They want mail-in voting.
adam crigler
No, no, no.
I'm saying they don't want the election cancelled.
tim pool
Oh, I think they want everything they can get.
Well, if the election is cancelled, they'll blame Trump and say he's a dictator and they're gonna remove him via the military.
adam crigler
Well, if the election's canceled, how's that on him, though?
tim pool
Because Trump has to be re-elected.
And so they'll argue there must be an election, and that from this point on, Trump must step down or some other ridiculous nonsense.
adam crigler
That's my whole point, yeah.
tim pool
In 2016, they pulled a crafty move.
After they lost, they claimed Trump cheated.
And that, you know, he's illegitimate.
And we went through, you know, two and a half, three years.
adam crigler
They still believe that.
They're still saying that.
tim pool
They know it's not true.
They know for a fact it's not true.
The transcripts have been released.
We've seen the witness statements where they said there's no evidence.
None, none, none.
Then they would go on TV and lie.
adam crigler
They don't believe it though.
tim pool
Well, it's not that they don't believe it, it's that they know it's not true.
It's not a question of belief, it's knowledge.
They know there is no evidence.
They were straight up asked, under oath, in closed door proceedings, do you have evidence?
No.
Then why did you say you did?
I saw it on TV.
They would go on TV and claim it was true, and then when they got questioned... I'm not talking about the Democrats in, like, politics.
adam crigler
I'm talking about the people, Democrats, that are seeing this stuff.
The voters?
unidentified
Yes, the voters.
adam crigler
They hate Trump because they believe, in their core, that he was colluding with Russia and all this stuff.
They hate him because... What they've been told for so long.
tim pool
They hate him because, and this is partly Trump's fault.
adam crigler
They were told to hate him.
tim pool
Sort of, but Trump plays into it too hard, and the people in media love that Trump plays the game.
So, I've talked to a lot of my friends, and I always, whenever we get into this political stuff, I'm like, you know Trump never called Nazis very fine people, right?
And they go, that's not true, I saw it.
I said, did you?
Pull up the article.
And they're like, oh, wait, what?
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
So you actually pulled the transcript.
You can see him say, I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis.
They should be condemned totally.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And then they're like, but what was he saying then?
I'm like, did you ever actually read the story and see what was going on?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And what Trump was trying to say and who he condemned?
Like, no, I didn't.
Right.
And it took me actually telling you to go look for it because they're not looking for it.
adam crigler
Well, now, see, I actually watch his speeches and listen to him speak, and I'm like, oh, okay, I get what you're saying.
And then I read the news.
lydia smith
Like something totally different.
adam crigler
Like clockwork.
lydia smith
Right.
adam crigler
Clockwork.
Spinning it in a way that is not what he said.
tim pool
Oh, dude.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Take a look at the- Snoping it.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
What was the recent, this is hilarious, the recent rule change?
adam crigler
Oh, right.
tim pool
NPR publishes, Trump administration finalizes rule stripping LGBTQ rights in healthcare.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
And it's like, is that what happened?
lydia smith
I was like, that's always interesting to find out what actually happened.
tim pool
You know what really happened?
adam crigler
Do enlighten us.
tim pool
He defined the term sex not to include gender identity.
Obama changed, I think it was 2016, that in healthcare, sex discrimination included identity.
And Trump set a rule saying, no, it means biological sex.
I'm not saying you have to like it, or agree with it, or hate it, whatever, that's not the point.
The point is, it is a far cry from saying that he's stripping rights from the LGBTQ community.
adam crigler
It's a huge difference.
tim pool
When he's literally just changing a rule back from a couple years ago that Obama changed in the first place.
Now, it's a semantic argument.
It's like arguing.
It's literally what I talk about when I say hydroxic acid.
It's like, it's true!
adam crigler
But it's also water.
tim pool
Right, so like, for those that aren't familiar, it's called the dihydrogen monoxide hoax.
You could say something like, hydroxic acid can eat through metal and I'm gonna splash it in your face!
And then you get scared and it's like, it's water, dude.
So, yes, the rule change may impact the rights of transgender people.
That's serious.
But you have to explain to people what's really going on with the rule change.
Instead, they go for the most hyperbolic and exaggerated take to make it seem like, you know, Trump is going crazy.
And then there's like, uh, there's some viral tweets.
There was one from, uh, you, you might, you might know shoe on head.
She's a big YouTuber.
She tweeted in 2016, you know, calm down.
I don't think like Trump is literally taking away gay rights or anything.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And then after this rule change, she posted a tweet where it was like, you know, oops.
And everyone was like, man, that aged like milk.
And it's like.
Bring back intelligent conversations.
Please.
unidentified
Seriously.
tim pool
get people to understand why the rule was changed in the first place and why
was it changed back you have to have an intelligent conversation they don't want
adam crigler
to have. The reality is bring back intelligent conversations. If you
tim pool
have in medical practice someone asserting that they are a different
biological sex that can affect how medical treatment is performed on them.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
So the argument is not, in some instances, about transgender rights as much as it is about proper medical treatment and liability issues.
So if you saw somebody who had their ID, like someone's passing on the ground and it looks, you know, the individual is female and you look at the ID, female.
And so you say, okay, it's a female.
I have to apply certain medical treatment in a certain capacity.
Then it turns out they're biologically male.
That means there are different medical procedures.
There's different, different doses, right?
Different doses.
lydia smith
Everything's different.
unidentified
Yeah.
lydia smith
Be careful.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
So they passed a law.
I think it was in 1991.
For the first time!
91!
I think it was 91.
I did a whole thing about it.
We did this whole story for Subverse, now it's called Scanner.
Where, when they would do clinical trials for medication, they wouldn't do it on women.
unidentified
Really?
tim pool
And then they were shocked to find, for some reason, painkillers didn't work on women.
unidentified
Weird!
tim pool
Yup.
So they passed this law saying, okay, from now on, medicines have to be trialed on men and women separately.
adam crigler
That makes sense.
unidentified
Right.
lydia smith
That recently, huh?
tim pool
That recently.
It's crazy.
It's like, in the past, not even 30 years, we didn't realize that maybe men and women have biological differences that have different, you know, medicine will have different effects.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
So, but you also have, you know, brain, blood-brain barrier stuff, brain capacity, the nether regions, for obvious reasons, will be affected differently.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Like Viagra, for instance.
So, now when you have this rule change saying, like, changing the definition of sex to include identity, it could actually impact proper medical procedure.
Ultimately, I think, you know, what we saw today with the Supreme Court was their ruling that if you are to discriminate on the basis of identity or sexuality, you inherently discriminate on the basis of sex.
And this caused a huge uproar, not because... I'm not seeing... The high-profile conservatives that are complaining about this are not saying, we shouldn't give rights to these people.
No, they're saying, don't legislate from the bench.
Now, maybe they're being hypocrites.
I don't know.
I don't follow all of their complaints.
But the complaint for the most part is the Democrats have been trying to pass this legislation for a long, long time and have never gotten it through.
For the Supreme Court to just come out now and say, nope, it's true, you're done, case closed, is subverting an entire branch of government.
lydia smith
Yeah, that's not cool.
tim pool
But look, man, I think people should discriminate for a lot of reasons in employment, but maybe there is a consideration that legislation should be handled By the, you know, legislative branch.
I guess the concern is they weren't getting the job done, but that's not the job of the Supreme Court, so.
adam crigler
Yeah, agreed.
tim pool
But anyway!
adam crigler
Anywho.
tim pool
We've got the Chazz.
We've got gun battles in France.
adam crigler
We've got the Chazz.
It sounds like a good tribe song.
lydia smith
Right?
tim pool
But now, we must do something else.
adam crigler
Super Chats!
No, no, before we get into Super Chats, look what I found.
lydia smith
This... What is this?
adam crigler
It's a freaking soy board!
lydia smith
That is amazing.
adam crigler
It's a skateboard, a soy, soy sauce board, a soy board.
tim pool
I've had this for a very long time.
adam crigler
I freaked out!
I was like, Tim!
Tim, what is this?
What is this thing I found?
tim pool
And I said, it's my oversized novelty soy sauce.
lydia smith
Yeah, what does it look like?
adam crigler
Well, I'm in love.
It's a soy board!
Come on, right?
I know!
Anyway, I had to show you guys.
tim pool
It is a full-size skateboard in the shape of a bottle of soy sauce.
adam crigler
Right?
Come on.
Now, even better...
Oh yeah!
Can you guys see that?
tim pool
Now here's what I think we're gonna do.
adam crigler
I think we're gonna give these away.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Maybe we should have a little, uh, like a contest of some sort.
tim pool
Right.
adam crigler
Who wants it?
Who wants a Harumph board?
I know you guys are freaking out.
tim pool
I don't know how we can do it.
adam crigler
This thing is sweet.
tim pool
But maybe, maybe if people send us something in the P.O.
box, we can then grab a random letter and then send a board back.
unidentified
Oh yeah.
lydia smith
Like a drawing or something.
tim pool
We have 10 boards.
unidentified
Oh yeah.
adam crigler
They are... You know what?
I'll think of a few ways.
tim pool
You don't want to do the letter thing?
adam crigler
Well, what do you mean?
Like a, like a... Yeah.
tim pool
If somebody sends us a, send us something to the P.O.
box, then we'll have an address and we'll send it back.
adam crigler
Oh, like a return, send us a return thing?
tim pool
No, no, no, no, just so we have your address.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
And then we'll randomly pick.
lydia smith
Yeah, that'd be fun.
tim pool
How about that?
adam crigler
I don't know.
Maybe we'll pick one that way, but I think we should have some different contests.
lydia smith
All right.
tim pool
Well, then I'll say this right now.
adam crigler
We got ten boards, so...
tim pool
If you go to timcast.com slash donate, there is a P.O.
box.
We will give away one of the boards in response.
Because we get stuff all the time from people.
lydia smith
Such cool, fun stuff.
tim pool
And so this is just the Harumph I Say graphic.
adam crigler
You gotta include, I want the board.
tim pool
Yes.
adam crigler
And you have to smash the like button.
tim pool
Yep.
lydia smith
Sure enough.
adam crigler
Or no deal.
Or we're not sending it.
tim pool
Hit the like button.
But we do have 10, so I guess we'll figure out different ways to give them out.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I assume most people won't actually skate them, because it's just the harumph I say on a board.
lydia smith
Yeah, they're so cool.
adam crigler
Oh, you can't skate it.
I mean, you can.
tim pool
You can do whatever you want.
It's your property once you get in here.
lydia smith
Yeah, whatever.
adam crigler
It's a great prize, though.
tim pool
We'll send it out to people.
But yes, absolutely, if you haven't already, smash the like button.
Smash it!
unidentified
Smash it!

I think I'm going to start pinning something, too, and we can all chat.
tim pool
On Twitter.
lydia smith
Yes, that's Twitter.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So we got some super chats.
lydia smith
Let's do it.
tim pool
The first super chat of the day from Mean Steve says Clay Travis is to woke center as Tim Pool is to CNN.
Love his take on the LeBron NBA China hypocrisy.
Check out the interview that got him banned from CNN years ago.
First amendment and boobs.
For those that aren't familiar, Clay Travis wrote about ESPN's ratings being the worst in their entire history.
You know why?
adam crigler
Is it true?
unidentified
Yes.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
Because they got woke.
Because, dude, here's the way I explained it in a video earlier.
Could you imagine loading up a skate video where you're like, I'm gonna watch some skateboarding and instead they're talking about politics and social justice?
lydia smith
That would be horrible.
adam crigler
Same thing with the video games going on nowadays.
Right.
It's just like, non-stop.
tim pool
It's actually a little different, right?
When it comes to the gaming stuff, if I see they've injected social justice, if it's done right or tastefully, I really don't care.
But if I literally want to watch a guy... Gaming is to escape reality into a game world.
adam crigler
Right, what I'm saying is... No, it's even worse, I think.
tim pool
I disagree.
You can have storylines... Yeah, of course you do.
You can have storylines in movies and games that are woke, but you're still watching a movie or playing a game.
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
If I open a video to watch a guy do a tre flip, and instead it's a guy sitting at a desk lecturing me, it's not about whether I like the politics or not, it's about me saying, I want to watch a tre flip, and clicking the tre flip video and leaving.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
You get it?
Yep.
tim pool
So with ESPN, there's probably some people who wouldn't mind if there was some political talk while they watched a game, but if you're not watching the game, and you literally went to the channel to watch the game, You weren't even thinking about politics.
You're not going, oh, is politics a rumpf.
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
You're going, oh, no football's on.
Next.
Oh, no football's on.
Next.
Oh, there's the football.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
That's simple.
That's why their ratings are trash.
King Canuck says, sending this out before a bike ride might not catch the first hour or so of this depending.
Hope it's not a real cell attack.
Things are getting nasty out there.
Also, Tim, you just lost the game.
That's true, I did.
lydia smith
Dang it.
tim pool
Jacob Scott says.
adam crigler
It was the beard.
The beard was the game.
tim pool
The beard's gone.
Oh, yeah.
It's funny because people don't realize I shave like once a month.
I really do.
This is normal.
It's like a totally normal thing.
lydia smith
It's a little shorter than usual.
tim pool
I wonder if it's just because we've had a big influx of viewers.
adam crigler
I don't know.
We've got a lot of core viewers.
I don't know if... I think they would agree with me that this is the first time you've shaved on the show.
tim pool
I never do a clean shave.
I just have a buzzer and go... Yeah.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Maybe it was because of the lockdown.
Maybe people aren't used to it.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
tim pool
Jacob Scott says, hey, love you guys.
Getting off work to listen to you and play WoW keeps me sane.
Guys, you have a big role to play as journalists and voice of influence in the coming turmoil.
Stay tuned and honest.
And Liberty PS Lydia, marry me.
adam crigler
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
He's the journalist.
lydia smith
Yes.
tim pool
Yeah.
lydia smith
We're the voices of reason.
unidentified
Not me.
tim pool
But this is not even a journalism show.
I mean.
adam crigler
That's true.
unidentified
Yeah, that's true.
tim pool
We still do have fat-checking standards.
unidentified
For sure.
Oh, for sure.
tim pool
We want to make sure that the things we're talking about are still legit.
adam crigler
For the record, that Sprite in a Bag thing.
lydia smith
Right.
adam crigler
That was actually from Halloween.
lydia smith
Halloween, yeah.
adam crigler
Like a year or two ago.
unidentified
Right, so.
tim pool
Still a good idea.
adam crigler
It's not actually from Chaz.
We haven't heard it.
Sorry about that.
Found out about that later in the day.
tim pool
Big Mac Attack says, Good evening Baron Von Beanie, Sorbarian Jesus, and Lydia of Whiterun.
Hey Tim, I watched your Saturday segment about private security and I was wondering, do you think Seattle might pull a robo-cop where the super wealthy can hire private military?
Yes, I do.
They're probably already doing it now.
adam crigler
They are already doing it.
tim pool
You want to know who just climbed on top of their desk and started doing the Lindy Hop?
The executives of Securitas.
They're dancing around, they're do-si-do-ing.
They're making it rain.
They're like, yes!
As these departments get defunded... And guess who they're hiring?
The cops, right?
Yeah, dude.
adam crigler
Oh, man.
tim pool
That's crazy, man.
Across the country, we're seeing cops resign.
That's freaky stuff.
adam crigler
Yeah, it is.
tim pool
Jeremy Griffin says, Nintendo released a game on Switch called Tonight We Riot.
Starring and created by Antifa?
Is that real?
unidentified
Really?
tim pool
Consider me disappointed.
unidentified
No way.
Give it a look.
tim pool
Apparently, commies want $15 for it.
lydia smith
What is it, Rockstar?
tim pool
Nintendo.
lydia smith
Oh, Nintendo, okay.
tim pool
I had an idea for a game.
adam crigler
Tonight We Riot?
I gotta see if that's true.
tim pool
Here's my idea for a game.
I wanna tell you my idea for a game.
It's a 2D side-scroller.
Point-and-click adventure kind of thing.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Where you play as a dude who's out of work, and so you try to find money.
You can walk into a place and, like, ask for a job, and the guy in the company says, sorry, we're not hiring.
Then you can, like, steal from the tip jar and get, like, a dollar.
You can go in the trash.
You can scrounge around the streets.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
You can go to a gas station and, like, mug somebody.
Go to an alley.
And the goal of the game is you have a college student loan debt counter on the top of the screen.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And so you're trying to pay off your debt.
So you can collect money, then go to the ATM and put it in to pay off your debt.
But no matter what you do, your student loan debt always ticks faster than no matter how good you are at the game.
You'll never make enough money.
adam crigler
Sounds about right.
tim pool
Here's the best part.
The only way the game ends is when finally you click concede.
And the ending cinematic is when you give up.
He goes to the voting booth.
And then he presses the Bernie Sanders button.
And there's a picture on the screen of Bernie Sanders smiling.
And then after you press the button, the background turns red
and his brow goes down and he looks angry.
And then he raises a fist and then it plays the Soviet National Anthem.
unidentified
Oh my god.
tim pool
That was my idea for a game. I thought it would be hilarious as a little mini game.
lydia smith
I love it.
adam crigler
Hold on, I have to read this.
So I looked it up.
Tonight we riot?
lydia smith
Yes!
adam crigler
Are you looking at this?
lydia smith
Oh my gosh, it's for real.
adam crigler
Wow.
lydia smith
What is happening there?
adam crigler
I'm just gonna read.
A revolutionary crowd-based retro brawler in a dystopia where wealthy capitalists control elections, media, and the lives of working people.
We're faced with two choices.
Accept it or fight for something better.
And it's You basically riot and take everything down.
Yeah, here we go.
You just pulled it up.
lydia smith
Oh, sorry.
I didn't realize it was on the screen.
tim pool
My bad.
unidentified
$15!
lydia smith
Yeah, that is very capitalistic.
tim pool
Talk about a hot profit for the designers of this anti-capitalist game.
adam crigler
It's so, like, bad.
Look at the graphics.
lydia smith
It's making me angry.
For all those folks who need to get out their political anger.
tim pool
Is that what it says?
lydia smith
Yeah, it's what it says.
tim pool
Maybe it's a good thing.
lydia smith
Maybe.
tim pool
You know what we need to do?
lydia smith
A wood chipper?
tim pool
We need to take all these Antifa people and just give them like legit VR.
lydia smith
They'd love that.
tim pool
Just put them in the Matrix, you know?
adam crigler
Yeah, but you don't feel the destruction of a brick going through an actual window, Tim.
tim pool
No, I'm saying we need to give them legit Neuralink VR.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
Where it's like, as soon as they show up to the protest, it's like, here's my plan, here's what we're gonna do.
Alright, hear me out.
lydia smith
Alright, okay.
tim pool
You tell all the Antiva people, tonight's the night.
This is the night we revolt.
lydia smith
Tonight we riot.
tim pool
Now, when they show up, they go into a security room, where you're like, we gotta make sure you're legit.
And then what actually happens is they get put into the Neuralink, and they don't realize it, and then they get to live out the fantasy of staging a revolution.
lydia smith
It's like Ender's Game.
Yeah, that's where they're really fighting aliens, but they don't know.
They think they're playing a game.
tim pool
So these people are all like, we did it!
unidentified
Yay!
tim pool
And they're dancing up and down.
And then once they get it all out of their system, they wake up in a chair and it's like, you did it!
adam crigler
I'm thinking more like Minority Report, where they put all the people, they link them up.
Well, they're not on ice.
Their brains are fully alive.
They're in, he said, they're basically just living like a computer generated something, you know?
tim pool
I mean, how many people would willfully choose to go into that anyway?
adam crigler
Probably a lot.
unidentified
Like, I would like to be a dragon warrior.
adam crigler
And we need to let that go.
It's funny, it's funny because I'm such a gamer, but also I want to fight for life, you know?
lydia smith
Right.
tim pool
For sure.
Maybe the solution is give people a way to have purpose.
You know, give them a real experience.
Yeah.
I guess maybe.
unidentified
Yeah.
Here we go.
lydia smith
Interesting game.
tim pool
Jen McMahon says, significantly significant, significantly significant over and over and over again.
adam crigler
Nice.
tim pool
And then some other word?
OurCatsGay asks, I can't talk to any of my friends in PA right now without using Wi-Fi on their end.
Oh, because of the phone outage stuff.
Warren Traveler says, Howdy Pimtool, Soyboy, Jesus, and my fave Sour Patch Lids.
Love y'all.
Can you do me a favor and spin that UFO?
adam crigler
It's Soyman, Jesus.
lydia smith
Soyman to you.
adam crigler
But I will spin it for you.
lydia smith
That's very nice of you.
tim pool
Georgiev says, hello Tim, I am a long time fan from East Europe, Bulgaria.
Most of us support Trump.
East EU is really conservative.
The things we see in US makes us remember the 50 year whore after 1945.
Yep, you know, sounds about right.
And wasn't it, was it Poland where they had the God Emperor Trump gigantic thing?
lydia smith
I think so.
They had a parade.
tim pool
Do you know what I'm talking about?
unidentified
No.
tim pool
Let me see if I can pull this up.
They had a float.

adam crigler
Trump truly has made it in life, hasn't he?
unidentified
I would say so.
tim pool
I just need you to think about this picture and what people in the future are going to think looking back at our history, historical records.
adam crigler
Thank you for this.
tim pool
I've never seen that.
adam crigler
It's amazing.
I love the tweets.

Raz, loaning that kid a gun without a background check at an FFL is illegal.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
Downskated says, my local gun range used to hold NFL viewing parties for the members in the club space.
Then they started kneeling for the flag, and that stopped.
There were discussions about resuming, but those ended.
Michael King says, uh, one of three.
I R D D O S. When you disconnect from one service, your phone tries to connect to another one.
When all the phones connect to the same tower, that creates another D D O S. Wow.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool

adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
So I've heard that from other people.
I'm just like, until I can get hard confirmation, but you heard it from S.C.
Nietzsche, so perhaps that's it.
Ethan Barron says, a DDoS on AWS and or Azure would make sense if it's affecting that many services.
Is that, AWS is that the Amazon service, or what is that?
lydia smith
AWS, sure.
tim pool
Doug, thanks for becoming a member.
Michael King then says, this is what this this becomes what can be called a rolling DDoS and
can be achieved by overloading just a couple towers in a busy area. Repeat this for three
major areas you seriously impact the country. Ryan E says.
says can confirm this was a deliberate cyber attack.
It's starting to look like it.
Michael then goes on to say, don't be surprised if China is either testing their abilities
to shut us down or if they are trying to shut this down for financial reasons.
How much wire fraud can you get away with if bankers can't call clients?
Definitely.
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
Maximum Casey says, hello to the awesome trio.
I have a funny story for you Do you remember a man in the UK by the name of Dan Holmes back in 2002?
Married his ps2 and had his name legally changed to PlayStation 2.

I want to look into it a little more Legally happened Georgie good for him the slot fits Sorry.
lydia smith
Gosh, okay, next question.
tim pool
Georgi Georgiev says, East EU would rather die than return to USSR and CCP.
We lived that nightmare for years.
My parents and grandparents told me enough.
I also saw enough.
I believe it.
Thron Fett says, China is unable to ever militarily attack the U.S.
with anything except possibly nukes, an exchange that they still lose.
There isn't enough transport capacity in the world to make it through the U.S.
And there is a gun behind every blade of grass.
unidentified
Especially now, after all the riots.
adam crigler
True.
tim pool
Simius the First says, in Australia, we are very close to becoming a satellite state of
China.
Our Labour Party views them as natural ideological allies and would much prefer to have them
as allies slash masters than the US, who they see as too conservative.
Lamer says, declassified KGB documents from USAR collapse show McCarthy was right.
That plus the Frankfurt School that promoted communist thought came to New York after they
were kicked out of the Third Reich.
CCP barely needed to do anything.
lydia smith
Yeah, they went to the colleges.
unidentified
Thanks.
tim pool
Henrik says, I was just about to ask you if you have seen the Yuri Bezmenov videos, and then you started talking about them.

A million dollars.
adam crigler
A lot.
tim pool
50 bucks.
lydia smith
Yeah, yeah, 40, 50.

adam crigler
Red pill still worked.
lydia smith
Okay, good, good.
tim pool
But how would you rate the soda?
unidentified
It's trying to... Orange man bad!
adam crigler
No, it's actually pretty good.
It's not as sweet as I thought it was going to be.
43 grams of sugar per serving.
lydia smith
That is a soda.
adam crigler
Which is one bottle.
And I had one sip and it's already enough sweet for me.
tim pool
A tremendous orange soda.
lydia smith
It is tremendous.
adam crigler
But do they... Orange Man Bad Soda.
Don't drink this.
tim pool
Can you get that in stores somewhere?
adam crigler
Probably not.
lydia smith
No.
tim pool
That'd be great.
adam crigler
OrangeManBadSoda.com Hey, there you go.
tim pool

adam crigler
Thanks for the soda.
This is not an endorsement, by the way.
lydia smith
No, it's not, but we are enjoying it.

So keep in mind, just so you know, if you randomly send us... Oh, it's bad.
lydia smith
Oh no.
tim pool
Really?
adam crigler
Try it.
tim pool
No, I don't want to try it.
lydia smith
It's too sweet.
adam crigler
I don't have cooties.
tim pool
No, I'm just saying, you really think it's bad?
adam crigler
No, it's actually, it's sweet.
lydia smith
Adam doesn't like sweet.
adam crigler
I don't do sweet stuff.
tim pool
If it's really bad, make sure you gotta be careful because look, somebody sent us some Orange Man Bad Soda, you know?
adam crigler

You try it.
Let's get a second opinion.
lydia smith
I'll be the judge of that.
tim pool
I bet she's gonna love it.
lydia smith
I probably will.
tim pool
Maybe it's meant to not be good because it's Orange Man bad.
lydia smith
I'll be the judge.
I'll let you know.
adam crigler
No, it's just sweet.
I don't like sweet drinks.
lydia smith
40 grams of sugar later.

I don't mind.
adam crigler
Oh, man.

Okay.
John Dallaire says, Coachella Valley, California.
Cell phone service is down.
I'm on T-Mobile and it hasn't been working all day.
I can only FaceTime and use internet.
I heard Verizon and AT&T are working, maybe LOL.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
So I think what the other people were explaining is that the reason Verizon, AT&T and others went down is because T-Mobile all dropped and then Yeah, makes sense.
up to the next tower knocking on everybody.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Jason Solo says nuclear powers have been retrofitting their nukes into less
radioactive, smaller precision strike nukes.
They don't have prolonged radioactivity in the strike zone.
Soon mutually assured destruction won't be a thing anymore.
I could be wrong about this, but my understanding was that the radioactivity was a choice.
adam crigler
Hmm.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
That's messed up.
tim pool
I did a special for Discovery where we talked about the power of nukes.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Crazy stuff, man.
But there are some seriously powerful nuclear weapons with no radioactive footprint.
So, I could be wrong about that, though.
So it seems like that may be the case.
Let's see.
Mike G says, Tim, remember this country's history?
From the Red Scare starting in 1919 to McCarthyism to the Cold War with Russia lasted until the 80s.
We beat it once, we can do it again.
Joshua says, past couple of months, Russian craft have increasingly been probing our air and naval presence.
China just launched their new fighter jets.
Both have the ability to attack us physically and by cyber means.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
Aureo says, the far left are the Nazi party of the modern age.
They are using many of the same points as the Nazis did.
Also, China is performing similar expansion tactics as Germany prior to World War II.
You know, the issue of, like, what is it, Godwin's Law?
Where you're comparing things to Nazis?
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
lydia smith
Godwin's Law.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
The thing about it is that you're just describing authoritarianism.
And because they were the most notorious and, like, egregious authoritarians, people are like, that's what the Nazis did.
In reality, you're saying, like, a well-known authoritarian faction did this thing.
Hey, guess what?
Communists did it, too.
lydia smith
Yeah, they did it worse, dude.
tim pool
It killed a lot more people.
lydia smith
Way worse.
adam crigler
And I also heard from some people in the Air Force that Russia flies by Alaska all the time.
lydia smith
That's my understanding.
adam crigler
That's not like a normal thing.
I think Alaska is a normal thing.
tim pool
Like 50 miles from Russia.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
Right.
So it's like they're just flying.
tim pool
Actually, the Aleutians go like super close to Japan, I think.
Yeah, dude.
You know what would be fun?
I always wanted to go to Un-Alaska.
lydia smith
Un-Alaska?
tim pool
Yeah, I think it's where they did that show, the crab show.
adam crigler
Un-Alaska?
tim pool
Yeah, it's called Un-Alaska.
adam crigler
It's a place called Un-Alaska?
tim pool
Yeah, it's in the Aleutian Islands, that archipelago that goes out from Alaska.
And it's where they did that, what was that show where they went and they caught crabs?
lydia smith
Yeah, the crab show.
I know, the extreme crabbing.
Oh my gosh, what is the name of that show?
adam crigler
That crab show.
tim pool
Ice Road Crabbers?
adam crigler
No!
Oh my gosh, it's gonna bug me now.
lydia smith
Ice Ocean Crabbers?
tim pool
King Crab?
adam crigler
The ice crabbing show, man.
Come on.
tim pool
I'm watching you, Chad.
adam crigler
I'm looking at it.
Where's Chad at?
lydia smith
Deadliest catch.
adam crigler
Nailed it.
lydia smith
Yes!
I beat Chad.
tim pool
It would be really cool to go there, man.
adam crigler
Just then, they all started rolling in.
lydia smith
That'd be super cool.
Yeah, un-Alaska, never heard of that.
tim pool
Check it out, Nicholas says, the scary thing is only 2% of Germany were members of the Nazi party during World War II.
Wow.
Hysteria and ignorance did the rest.
That's what I'm talking about.
adam crigler
So we can't fall to hysteria, people.
lydia smith
That's right.
tim pool
No, listen, when I tell my friends who have these Black Lives Matter profile pictures and everything, and I'm like, be careful because the organizers of these protests you're going to are overt anti-Semites, they're like, oh, but those are just bad apples.
And I'm like, They're the leaders.
adam crigler
They're the leaders.
tim pool
They organized your protest for you.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
So you are providing that image of a favorable public opinion.
adam crigler
Right.
So that they go, I believe in this.
These are all the people that I brought that feel the same way I do.
You're standing out in that crowd.
You can have your hands like this.
It won't matter.
tim pool
But I'm careful to say, Dave Chappelle gets it right.
Dave Chappelle says, hey man, these people shouldn't die.
You're right.
They should not.
unidentified
100%.
tim pool
I'm with you.
adam crigler
100%.
tim pool
The problem is the people who are anti-Semites and communists who are trying to hijack actual public opinion for their benefit.
lydia smith
That's not right.
tim pool
But people are ignoring it and the crazy, like Chelsea Handler, man.
She's posting Farrakhan.
What's going on in this country?
adam crigler
Yeah, I don't understand that.

Let's see.
Perick says, Churchill was highly racist towards Indians.
If he had been re-elected, India would not have remained a British colony for longer.
I still wouldn't judge the man on 21st century morality.
I agree, that's the point.
Like Fry Like Fry says, you all should check out the HBO movie called Second Civil War, a 1997 comedy drama that the media instigated a second civil war.
Sounds familiar, doesn't it?
Spin the UFO and make those black op tech scientists dizzy.
unidentified
Yes!
adam crigler
I'm gonna spin it!
unidentified
Let's do it!
tim pool
There's little researchers inside.
adam crigler
There are.
I'm gonna spin it the other way now.
lydia smith
I feed them every day.
tim pool
Changing it up.
Adam's getting a little bold and making it spin the other direction.
lydia smith
I feed them orange soda every day.
Clockwise.

Ariel says, even though you likely won't read this, I'm happy to help keep you guys around to entertain and inform you.
Pool party!
Grab your dual discs and prepare to defend your honor.
Got your back.
I'll mention this too.
I mean, look, we can't get to every single Super Chat, but it does support the show because clearly it's money coming to us, so we definitely appreciate it for sure.
All right, let's see, where are we at?
Bobcat says, I think it's irresponsible for the warlord of Soymalia.
unidentified
Excellent!
lydia smith
I love that name.
tim pool
To be handing out guns to people without even offering them training.
But Mattis has done much the same in his time.
Woo, spicy.
It's been called Chasmania.
Antifa- Antifastan.
lydia smith
Soymalia.
tim pool
I love Antifastan.
adam crigler
Antifastan is the best so far.
tim pool
Soymalia.
lydia smith
I love it.
tim pool
Antifastan.
adam crigler
I take slight offense to Soymalia.
They're giving soil a bad name.
Well, I'm here to turn it around.
tim pool
Johnson says they took her gerbs.
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
They took her gerbs.
unidentified
They took her gerbs!
tim pool
Anthony Bray says Adam Lincoln didn't free the slaves.
He let slaves from the South to come up and join the army to get freedom.
The GOP ended slavery with its 13th amendment in 1875.
unidentified
Good call.
tim pool
Okay, there we go.
Wait, what?
Hey, TokBoyOfThe5Beaches taken, uh, OfThe5BeachesTaken was taken by the Canadian Army.
Say, see Juno Beach.
Oh, okay.
OfThe5BeachesTaken.
Okay.
lydia smith
Okay, there we go.
tim pool
I thought he was saying I was TokBoyOfThe5Beaches.
I was like, what does that mean?
lydia smith
Wait, what?
tim pool
I don't...
J-Rod says, I live in Washington about 30 miles outside of Seattle.
When you read about Sodom and Gomorrah, Capitol Hill is a 21st century version of it.
lydia smith
Oh, man.
tim pool
We used to visit Seattle once in a while.
Haven't done that in years now.
Matthew Stockhausen says, just got a Trump task force card.
Only donated to Trump and Tulsi once.
It asked for more, any extra contribution, so I decided to contribute to here instead.
Hopefully you find my NH money good.
Appreciate it.
lydia smith
Thank you.
adam crigler
Donald Trump just- Your money is very good here.
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
I think Donald Trump just raised the most ever, again.
lydia smith
He did, on his birthday.
tim pool
Wow.
$14 million in a single day.
What a nice gift.
Wow.
I think more than any other campaign ever in a single day, right?
lydia smith
Yeah, I think so.
adam crigler
DNC's gotta be sweating.
lydia smith
He set a record.
adam crigler
They're sweating, man.
tim pool
While they're lighting everything up, going nuts.
adam crigler
They're lighting everything up!
lydia smith
Like, alright, pull out the steps.
tim pool
Yeah, man.
Steve says, Media dividing us to defeat ourselves is exactly what
adversaries want.
People eerily being conditioned to accept major life regime changes.
Mass SJ public loyalty oaths scare me.
US military superiority is a 15-20 year old idea.
Simius the first says, Seattle shows us our problems in the west.
I went to school with a Russian kid who said if I ever came to conflict with the West, they would win, because the Russians or Chinese believe the greatest thing to do in life is to die for your country, and the West does not.
No, the West is full of people who think the greatest thing you can do is run and hide and defend yourself.
And I gotta say, man, there are too many people.
We are a generation of even the best of us, even the best of our generation would much prefer to stock up and go hide instead of going on the front line to defend their ideals.
It's true, man.
adam crigler
Prep.
tim pool
Very few people would stand up for this.
But I'll tell you what, you know who's willing to go out there and fight for their ideas?
Nantifa.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
There was a post by your doctor friend.
What's her name?
Karen?
lydia smith
Karlyn?
tim pool
Karlyn.
lydia smith
Karlyn Borson.
Borsenko.
tim pool
She tweeted that conservatives don't fight.
lydia smith
Yeah, she's right.
tim pool
It's true.
unidentified
100%.
lydia smith
I've noticed this too.
adam crigler
Until you come on their property.
unidentified
That's true.
tim pool
But that's a defense.
lydia smith
It's like a personal thing.
tim pool
There's no offense.
That's true.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
Well, they'll fight for their property.
tim pool
I was at Trump Tower.
adam crigler
By defending it.
tim pool
I was at Trump Tower and there was a leftist protest.
And some guy showed up and started talking to me and a few other people saying he was a Trump supporter.
And then someone who was there asked him if he would protest and he goes, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm like, well, there you go.
So what do you think?
The only thing people see are is they don't want to, you guys don't protest, so you must not exist.
It's really easy to create the perception that everyone hates Trump when Trump supporters actually, for the most part, aren't coming out.
Now, a lot of them do, for sure.
lydia smith
To be fair, they also, a lot of them have jobs and they're busy and they're raising their families and everything.
tim pool
It's true.
unidentified
It's true.
tim pool
That's just the point.
But when I say they're not fighting, I'm not saying it to deride them.
For a lot of reasons why they don't fight.
It's just true.
We also talked about this the other day.
Antifa, most of these people are childless, have nothing to lose.
So they can just throw their bodies in the front line like whatever.
But conservatives, they got kids.
They're like, I can't leave my kids high and dry, you know?
There's the huge challenge.
That's a serious disparity, man.
Let's see, Tin Man says, It's not that we got rid of dueling, but that we have systematically eradicated the concept of honor from the population.
Honor and dedication to something greater than yourself are no longer parts of Western society.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
That's a bummer.
lydia smith
Yeah, I think it's true.
adam crigler
Way to the heart.
tim pool
The Waltman says, Give Fate O' King's Stay Home, Keep People Safe video a watch.
It's the MSM footage shaming the Open the Country protest, but has the Black Lives Matter as the B-roll, and more than a feeling playing if you're interested.
I think I saw that for sure.
Alright, let's see.
Scott Bloss says, Tim, a ghost gun is a homemade gun made from an 80% finished receiver, blank, that has no serial number, which is legal.
Not all home-built guns are ghost guns.
Most people buy finished serialized receivers, then build off of that.
Thank you for the knowledge.
unidentified
Nice.
tim pool
Darren says, the woke social media Cheka wasn't satisfied.
They hugely empowered BLM movement, and have now moved on to the internet, Kristallnacht, portion of Project Mayhem.
Scott Judd says, you all are at 35,000 viewers.
For comparison, PewDiePie's last live stream had 49,000 views.
Just saying.
Tim Fohors.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
I mean, there's a lot of people watching.
adam crigler
We're just getting started, though.
tim pool
It's great, man.
Well, look, we do a show, and we talk, and we complain about things, and apparently everybody likes it.
adam crigler
Well, thank you very much, everybody.
tim pool
It is meant to be somewhat facetious when I say we complain about things.
I think, you know.
Yeah, it's true.
All right Vosch says clean your room bucko, and that's why we have a cat named bucko Yes, he's named for Jordan.
lydia smith
He's not clean.
tim pool
It's proper name named for Jordan.
adam crigler
So derogative.
He's a cool cat He deserves a cool name Jordan Peters is named for Jordan Peters.
unidentified
Yeah, that's why I will name him Jordan No, no, no, he's bucko.
tim pool
No, it's boku Named for Jordan Peters.
adam crigler
You don't nobody calls him pronounced Bucko.
tim pool
We have to call him Buku I know who calls me Timothy Me.
adam crigler
She does.
lydia smith
Sometimes.
tim pool
Well, I refer to him Bucko in proper terms sometimes.
But listen, that's his biblical name, okay?
lydia smith
That's right, it's his Christian name.
adam crigler
You're wrong.
tim pool
Bucko is his Christian name.
adam crigler
You're wrong.
lydia smith
Okay, look on his poster to pit Adam.
tim pool
He carries the honor of Jordan Peterson.
lydia smith
That's right.
adam crigler
We dilute it.
That may be true.
tim pool
Emily named the cat, and she named him for Jordan Peterson.
adam crigler
You're wrong.
tim pool
We can give him nicknames.
adam crigler
You're wrong.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
tim pool
He has nicknames.
All right, let's jump down to the latest Super Chats here as we're getting close.
It's 9.55, everybody.
Kayla Ryman says, keep on keepin'.
God bless.
Appreciate it.
Larry Goddard says, when anyone starts talking about something being racist or wanting to end racism, I can guarantee with 100% certainty that they are only thinking of white versus black racism, completely ignoring every other race.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
Larry, you are correct, because early on we were talking about they were targeting mixed race people, and the presumption is you're white and something else.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
That's always what they mean.
They never mean an Asian person and a Middle Eastern person.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
They always mean white and something else.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
You know why it is?
These leftists personally view white as the default race.
Seriously, they are white supremacists with guilty consciences.
adam crigler
Boom.
tim pool
Nailed it.
I've talked to them about this stuff and man, I gotta tell you, I probably told this story before, but the guy in North Dakota who told me that the concept of time was created by colonists from Europe.
What?
How is that descending?
Do you have any idea the things that Asia invented before the Europeans?
unidentified
No.
adam crigler
No, they don't.
lydia smith
No concept.
adam crigler
They have no clue.
tim pool
There's a multi-thousand year history from ancient Egypt that we can't even track back.
Like, man, these people are so arrogant.
So much was invented by people in Egypt, by people in India, by people in China.
lydia smith
Dude, education has failed us.
adam crigler
Zuby posted something, I think, earlier today.
He was like, you know, most of the people I talk to, 70% of Americans probably believe slavery only existed in America.
And half the comments were like, probably more, more than 70% believe that.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
How many think it doesn't currently exist today?
All of them.
When there are more slaves today than there have ever been.
adam crigler
I know.
lydia smith
My goodness, yes.
tim pool
They love to complain, and then they're walking down the street with their iPhones, like, bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop b In Libya, right now, black people are being kidnapped and enslaved and sold.
lydia smith
Less than $200 a piece.
tim pool
That's insane, man.
And I wish we could just stop it.
That's insane.
It's bad, man.
It's really bad.
But, you know, people just want power, man.
I see someone commenting saying time wasn't invented.
What I mean to say is they believe the concept of time and scheduling was created by white people.
adam crigler
And I'm like, no, it was created by the moon.
tim pool
It was created by farmers and crops who are growing crops.
It was, listen, moths understand the concept of time to a very simple rudimentary.
adam crigler
You know what does?
Cicadas.
lydia smith
Yes.
tim pool
Right.
adam crigler
Those are some math geniuses.
unidentified
No, no, no.
adam crigler
There's all sorts of cicadas along the, because there's different through the prime numbers.
It's pretty amazing.
The whole math behind cicadas, man, they're That is very quiet.
Speaking of which, we're due for a cicada attack.
lydia smith
Of course it's this year.
adam crigler
Anytime.
lydia smith
Of course it is.
adam crigler
I think it's either this year or next year.
It's gonna be crazy.
tim pool
Blue Dragon says Adam is channeling his inner Trump.
unidentified
Ooh.
adam crigler
Thank you.
I think.
I think.
lydia smith
I think so.
tim pool
Let's be real.
I know this is kind of cliches brought up a lot, but isn't it crazy how popular Trump was until he ran for president?
adam crigler
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
He was in, you know, be a Trump.
And it's like, so he was a boss until he became president.
unidentified
And then the Democrats told you he was bad.
tim pool
All of a sudden, this guy who's got like civil rights awards and accolades is racist.
Isn't Martin Luther King Jr's daughter, like a fan?
lydia smith
Yeah, she is.
She's a very pro-life lady.
tim pool
That's so weird, isn't it?
lydia smith
Yeah, she's super conservative.
tim pool
Isn't it weird that right now it's supposedly the racist conservatives saying, let's not judge people based on race, and it's the Democrats who have been historically racist saying, let's judge people based on race?
adam crigler
Well, it's not really that crazy.
It's just them actually finally being true to themselves, maybe.
tim pool
I think it's really funny.
Someone shared this photo.
You know that photo of Hillary Clinton kissing the former Klansman?
unidentified
No.
tim pool
You know what I'm talking about?
lydia smith
Which one?
tim pool
Hillary Clinton.
It's a photo of her kissing the Klansman.
lydia smith
Didn't she kiss David Duke?
tim pool
No, no, no, no, no.
lydia smith
Oh, I thought it was him.
tim pool
No, it's a different guy.
And everyone's like, oh, but that Klansman quit the Klan.
And I'm like, he's still a Democrat.
adam crigler
He quit the Klan to become a Democrat.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
tim pool
So the Klan were Democrats.
And then we went through the Civil Rights Movement.
And the Democrats supposedly, the argument from the left is that the Republicans started pandering to racist whites or whatever.
And a lot of Republicans argue that's not true.
And I'm like, I don't know about all that, man.
All I know is that today, all of these problems these people are complaining about, police brutality, stop-and-frisk, project housing, you know, being torn down, stuff like that, I'm like, that's all cities.
That's not happening.
It's all cities.
The panhandle of Oklahoma is not dealing with, you know, gang crime and police brutality.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
It's just not, no.
tim pool
Like, kind of, there are some cities, for sure, in small-town America, but Nah, it's the big cities run by Democrats.
So you can argue that the Democrats preach anti-racism or whatever, but hey man, I'll tell you what, if you've got a guy who's walking around claiming he wants to do X, and then you take another guy who's claiming he hates X but keeps accidentally making X happen, I don't care what his intent is, he's messing things up.
It's like if you had a guy who constantly, like a waiter, whenever you see him, he drops your food.
And then he's like, doing it on purpose.
And you're like, he's purposely dropping my food.
So you hire a new waiter, and they're like, don't worry, this is a new waiter.
And then he accidentally drops my food.
I'm like, bro, I don't care what he was doing.
It's the same problem still happening from the same restaurant.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
Stop hiring waiters that drop food!
lydia smith
Seriously.
tim pool
Yep.
lydia smith
We do complain about everything.
tim pool
Hallucinius says, Mr. Poole, you should try to get the Forgotten Weapons Gun Jesus guy.
I'd take you to a range day once you've received your Sig M400.
I have received copious amounts of literature on proper use.
adam crigler
Oh my gosh, I saw it all.
DVDs, there's like four DVDs in there.
tim pool
Everyone's looking out for us.
adam crigler
Stacks of books, like breaking down how to do everything, take it apart, put it back together, clean it.
tim pool
I gotta be honest, the guy on the cover, the guys on the cover of all these are like the same.
It's like the same rugged looking white dude with a gun with like grizzled beard.
I think I know which demographic they're targeting, but it's really cool.
So I appreciate it all.
I definitely, you know, I was talking to a friend of mine and a friend of mine who lives in Seattle and they were like, so you're going to come to Seattle?
And I was like, are you nuts?
lydia smith
No way.
tim pool
They're like, but all this stuff's happening.
I'm like, dude, they're walking around with rifles and they're lunatics.
unidentified
I told you.
Yeah.
What?
adam crigler
Nothing.
tim pool
That my friend was going to tell me to come and check it out?
adam crigler
No, I told you you wouldn't go.
tim pool
I never said I would go.
lydia smith
To Seattle?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
Why would I go to Seattle?
Last week!
You mean when I said that if it happened outside of my house, I would be happy about it?
adam crigler
No, when we were talking about you, you were like, I would totally go down and check it out.
And I was like, no, you wouldn't.
I don't believe you.
tim pool
If I lived there, yes.
Absolutely.
adam crigler
No, I still don't believe you.
tim pool
And I said I would walk up to the people and I would yell at them, and I would say, get out of my way, and I'd cause trouble.
Absolutely, 100%.
adam crigler
No, no, not if you live there.
I was saying this was a different conversation.
tim pool
No, you're misinterpreted.
adam crigler
Oh, sure.
tim pool
I said if I lived there, let's just move on.
I would make a stink about it.
adam crigler
I don't want to hear it.
tim pool
So I was asked about a friend if I would go from the East Coast to Seattle, and I was like, no, are you nuts?
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
I was like, dude, these people are crazy, but I'm not going to travel 4,000 miles or whatever right now.
lydia smith
For the chance to die?
tim pool
To go to the jazz.
But, uh, my very liberal Seattle living friend said, should I buy a gun?
And I said, yes, but get training first, figure out, have someone properly tell you.
And because when, you know, like I mentioned, when I went to that training with the Jersey police Academy, they let me try all these different weapons.
And then we're like, now you know which one, you know, you might prefer, which would be better off for you.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And so as your average adult male, I could probably handle a standard, you know, weapon of some sort.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But a small, you know, smaller female might not want to try out a Desert Eagle on their first go.
You know what I mean?
unidentified
Boosh!
tim pool
Have you seen the video of that?
adam crigler
The woman, she's like... It's the first thing I thought of when you said it.
tim pool
She weighs 90 pounds.
She goes, bang!
unidentified
It's like... Someone should have told her.
What the heck?
tim pool
Or the video where the guys get the shotgun, usually women, and they pull the trigger and it flies backwards.
Well, at least you're not dead.
adam crigler
I'm spinning this UFO right now for the chat.
This is for you, chat.
Everyone who doesn't super chat can't do it for us, but I see you.
tim pool
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the last spin of the UFO for the night.
I'm sorry to say, but our time has come, and for we must sleep.
There is much work to be done in the morning.
I got some good news coming up in the next week for sure.
I've got a special appointment.
adam crigler
I know what that means.
tim pool
Some cool important things are going to be happening and then maybe eventually we'll have an unboxing video.
I'm not going to say specifically, but I think you can understand what that may be about.
adam crigler
They know.
They're not stupid.
unidentified
For sure.
tim pool
I'm just not going to say it.
If you have not already, follow me on Twitter and Instagram at Timcast.
I post, you know, we'll probably post some skateboarding soon.
I've been skating, like, every day, non-stop.
lydia smith
It's true.
adam crigler
I had to take a break.
tim pool
Yeah, Adam's shins are covered in blood.
unidentified
No, my ankles.
adam crigler
Ankles.
tim pool
Yeah, covered in blood.
adam crigler
Yeah, my ankles are pretty bloody.
tim pool
Adam refuses to fall.
That's not the wrong... Adam refuses to not try to land it.
Like, everything he does, he has to at least try to land it.
adam crigler
It's true.
tim pool
But in skateboarding, if you're not confident you're going to land it, you can bail, which means you'll kick the board away.
Adam won't do that.
He'll try it, and if he slams, he slams.
Me, I'm very cautious.
But that means I skate every single day.
I just don't go ham.
adam crigler
Yeah, I can't help it.
That's how I roll.
That's how I skate.
tim pool
But make sure to follow Adam.
adam crigler
Yeah, follow me.
Thank you.
And I just hit 10k last night.
I'm pretty stoked about it.
tim pool
All famous.
adam crigler
No, it's great.
You know what?
I appreciate all of you that are, you know, showing me that love.
unidentified
It's awesome.
adam crigler
You guys are fantastic.
tim pool
Somebody super chatted the other day.
Tim, thank you for bringing us Adam.
adam crigler
Aw, how cute!
Thank you, whoever said that.
Thank you very much.
I really appreciate you guys.
tim pool
But for the function of the show, you can send Adam story ideas.
adam crigler
For the most part, yeah.
tim pool
We plug this frequently.
adam crigler
Besides that, the love from you guys.
lydia smith
Yes, and tweet at Adam relentlessly.
Please do it for me.
adam crigler
Love it.
tim pool
You can also tweet at Sour Patch Lids.
lydia smith
Technically correct.
tim pool
L-Y-D-S.
adam crigler
She's jealous of my 10k.
lydia smith
I am.
Yes.
adam crigler
Let's get her 10k.
Come on.
lydia smith
Do it.
tim pool
Hold on.
Hold on.
There are 27,000 people still watching.
You guys should both have at least 27,000 more followers.
lydia smith
Oh my gosh.
adam crigler
Come on.
tim pool
Come on with it.
adam crigler
No, not everybody.
You know, there are some people that get on Twitter and they're like, I've never had Twitter before.
I just got it.
So I can send you ideas.
That is commitment right there.
tim pool
But I kind of don't appreciate that.
Promoting Jack Dorsey's platform.
adam crigler
So we should, what do we do?
tim pool
I don't know.
Locals.
adam crigler
Follow me on Instagram?
tim pool
That's Mark Zuckerberg.
adam crigler
No!
tim pool
Yeah, welcome to the Nightmare Dystopia.
lydia smith
Enjoy us on YouTube.
adam crigler
At least he's not censoring Trump.
He's actually gonna host his stuff.
tim pool
You know what we should do?
We should get a Nightmare Dystopia graphic.
Yeah, we should.
lydia smith
Great.
adam crigler
Let's lean into it.
tim pool
Come on.
No, no, no, but think about it.
Think about the stuff we talk about with censorship and Zuckerberg and Dorsey and Civil War and Antifa.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I'm pretty sure someone could make a really cool modern depiction of a nightmare dystopia using these themes.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Because all the nightmare dystopia stuff has always been like cyberpunk, 1984, Fahrenheit 451.
That's true.
But now we have all these things.
adam crigler
Now we actually have dystopia unfolding in front of us.
lydia smith
Oh, it's wonderful.
Just what I wanted.
adam crigler
Yeah, I made a joke that Rockstar is just taking notes for Grand Theft Auto 6.
tim pool
Probably a lot of games are. I mean look we got that Antifa game apparently.
adam crigler
I mean they could just do like a DLC for GTA 5 of just like the dystopia hits you know and just everything goes crazy.
That would be pretty intense actually.
tim pool
A really fun mod of like Antifa versus you know...
No, I mean, they're not really relevant so much anymore.
adam crigler
The establishment?
Or what?
I don't know.
Oh, they're working together, it seems like.
tim pool
I don't even know what's going on.
I think it would be really fun to play a game like Tonight We Riot, but making fun of the rioters.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
You know, like... Maybe it is!
adam crigler
I don't know.
tim pool
Have you ever seen... I haven't played it, so... I don't know.
Have you ever listened to the song by Chris Raygun, Punch a Nazi?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
I'll play it for you after this.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
For those that haven't, check out this song.
It's called Punch a Nazi by Chris Raygun.
You gotta listen to it.
lydia smith
