Speaker Time Text
tim pool
So I was talking to somebody earlier today about whether or not Trump was going to win.
I was out and about in this semi-quarantine weird purgatory that we have going on in New Jersey.
And this was an older person, very clearly a Trump supporter, saying, oh, no, we won.
It's in the bag.
It's going to be a landslide.
And I was just like, you really think so?
You really think you've got it?
Not a Fiezi attitude.
adam crigler
Well, that's weird, because you tell me this is a blue district, isn't it?
Yep.
Very blue.
tim pool
Very, very blue.
adam crigler
And yet you're running into Trump supporters.
tim pool
It's true.
adam crigler
They're out there.
It is.
tim pool
But, you know, I think about 2016 was supposedly not supposed, it wasn't supposed to happen.
Trump wasn't supposed to win.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And now he did.
And now so many people are convinced he's won already.
AOC just won her primary.
She crushed it.
The moderate Democrats were nowhere to be found.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Actually, less moderate votes than the 2018 election with Joe Crowley.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
So I'm wondering, does that show the culture war dominates, or does it show there's a progressive lurch?
In which case, why would Trump win?
That means that the polls likely are accurate.
adam crigler
Well, I don't think she's as creepy as Biden.
tim pool
AOC?
adam crigler
Yeah, there's not as much stuff going against her as Biden.
tim pool
Biden's way less threatening than AOC is.
adam crigler
Okay, I can see that.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
He's, I mean, he's an old dementia ridden old man.
tim pool
A dementia.
Yeah, man.
But, but the reason, so the reason I bring this up is because I got an email this morning and I talked about it before.
I think, I think the literal email was like a random dude or something.
Like there, there was actually a title of the email.
adam crigler
Oh, from random dude?
tim pool
Something like that.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
tim pool
But it was just, uh, I'm assuming it's a guy.
Made a really good point saying that, uh, I think I talked about it on a bunch of my other, my, my, my other channels today.
If the popular vote goes to Biden, and the electoral vote goes to Trump, but one state decides to flip, then you've got both sides declaring victory.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
Both claiming the Electoral College is theirs.
adam crigler
It's a slippery thing, because I mean, I'm seeing people posting about how they got their ballots, like their mail-in ballots, and there's no Republican box on any of it.
It's all Democrats, no matter who you vote, wherever checkbox it is.
tim pool
But maybe that's because that was a primary ballot.
adam crigler
Yeah, I don't know if that's true or not.
tim pool
Because the primaries are going on right now.
Okay.
But yeah, that could mean that they were registered as Democrats and they don't realize it.
And if you're in a state with, I don't know if they do this for the general elections,
I don't know enough about each individual state.
But some states have closed primaries where you have to be a member of the party to vote
in the primary.
Some people argue that's a good reason why AOC isn't going to lose in November.
unidentified
Bye.
tim pool
Because it's a closed primary, meaning only registered Democrats can vote in the primary, and they're activists.
And that the Republican base will show up in droves.
Because 20% of that district is Republican.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
And that's a tiny fraction, right?
But if they all vote, she's out.
And boy would that be a shock.
adam crigler
A lot of people are saying that they can't hear me.
tim pool
Can't hear you.
adam crigler
Yeah, I mean, uh, we did a test.
I do, yeah, it does seem a little bit low.
tim pool
You're totally up.
adam crigler
Hello, hello, testing, can you hear me now?
Is this better?
Can you hear me now?
Hello, I am speaking directly to you, the public, about the volume of my voice.
Does it sound good now?
unidentified
Huh?
adam crigler
Does it sound good?
lydia smith
It looks better.
tim pool
We have to wait.
adam crigler
Tim is not trying to silence me.
tim pool
Yes, I am.
That's the plan.
adam crigler
Tim is not trying to silence me.
That is a conspiracy.
Okay, everyone can hear me now.
Alright, thank you everybody.
tim pool
Yeah, there's some weird things been going on with Adam's mic.
And we couldn't figure out what it was.
And it was like a mixed balance issue, but apparently that wasn't it.
adam crigler
I mean, I'm gaining my voice, so someone's trying to silence me.
tim pool
Yeah, that's right.
adam crigler
The more I'm becoming outspoken, the more you're slowly turning the volume down.
tim pool
There's a little Joe Biden in an office somewhere listening, and he's cranking your volume down like, no, we can't have this.
Tim's already gone, but Adam's not.
Tim's already, you know, we gotta bring him back.
Don't let people realize.
What were we talking about?
Oh, yeah.
AOC.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So some people... Could you imagine what would happen if we went to November and she's thinking like, I won.
adam crigler
I got this in the bag.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
Because when she won the first time back in 2018, she was saying that I was elected when she wasn't even elected yet.
She won the primary, meaning she's the nominee for the Democrats, but she hasn't actually won the general election yet.
But everyone was saying, look, it's a D plus 29 district.
Of course she's going to win.
adam crigler
And she did.
tim pool
And she did.
But what happens now if the culture war really is as prominent as people think, and every single Republican in that district gets up and goes to vote because they're freaking out?
Yeah.
adam crigler
I see that happening.
tim pool
I don't.
adam crigler
You don't think so?
tim pool
I just did a whole rant the other day that blew up where I'm like, no one will do anything, they won't stand up for themselves.
adam crigler
I'm pretty sure they all saw the rant, Tim.
tim pool
Yeah, I think so.
So if people do get up, Maybe things get crazy, because look, they're rioting in D.C.
still.
Still rioting in D.C., still rioting all over the place.
Maybe it gets crazy enough to where every single, every single Republican in the district goes to vote, and that would mean most Democrats don't vote.
So I think AOC got like 170,000 or something votes, something like that.
adam crigler
In 2018?
tim pool
But in the general, because like Nancy Pelosi says, you put a glass of water on the table with a D on it, they'll vote for it.
That's what Nancy Pelosi said.
adam crigler
Straight up, she said that?
tim pool
Yes, she did.
She said in her district and in AOC's district, you could get a glass of water with a D on it, people would vote for it.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Yup.
adam crigler
That really goes to show you.
tim pool
If the Democrats in her district are laughing saying we won, but every single Republican gets up and goes and votes, AOC could lose and the district could flip red and that would be insane.
Now I normally wouldn't want to believe it, but it happened in the UK.
So maybe the issue is that it's a closed primary.
Republicans couldn't vote.
But you go to, you know, the general.
We'll see what happens.
But anyway, we've got a bunch of stories.
The first one we're gonna be talking about is the scenario for civil war.
And it's meant to be a far-fetched conversation.
adam crigler
A scenario.
tim pool
A scenario.
Well, yeah, we're gonna have a conversation that's gonna be silly, wacky, and over-the-top on purpose.
adam crigler
Oh, good.
tim pool
For fun.
adam crigler
I love having fun.
tim pool
We got some serious stuff.
We got protesters want the arsonist in Atlanta released, demanding it.
We've also got the DC protests and the US military helicopters flying within 40 feet and like blasting them with air.
unidentified
Wow.
See that?
tim pool
Yeah, crazy stuff.
adam crigler
Nah, I missed that.
Cool.
tim pool
And then we got the fake news.
adam crigler
The fake noose.
tim pool
The Bubba Smollett story.
adam crigler
Bubba Smollett.
tim pool
Bubba Smollett.
But to be fair, I'm placing this story alongside the NYPD cops who didn't actually drink bleach.
And the LAPD cop who claimed he got a tampon in his drink.
Also not true.
adam crigler
Oh really?
tim pool
So we got this wave of hoaxes popping up.
lydia smith
People are just on edge.
tim pool
Everybody's going nuts.
adam crigler
Everybody's trolling everybody.
tim pool
I wouldn't even say trolling.
Bubba Smollett saw the pole rope from the garage.
That's what it was.
It was you pull the garage down.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And someone must have cut it off or something happened.
And he panicked, overreacted without thinking.
Same as the cops in New York did.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Everybody's on edge.
adam crigler
Agreed.
tim pool
You can make fun of these people.
No.
It's tense.
unidentified
No, no.
tim pool
I feel it.
Think about what this means for the average person right now and how high their anxiety is.
They're wound up so tight.
They're ready to just snap.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
So, let's get started talking about these stories.
unidentified
Before we do, make sure you SMASH THE LIKE BUTTON!
lydia smith
There we go.
unidentified
Yes.
adam crigler
That's how hard I smash it.
My headphones just flew off.
tim pool
We're pretty sure the reason the show is growing is because you were literally smashing the like button.
adam crigler
That's right.
You smashed the like button for me.
tim pool
Well, to be fair, the show started growing when we were like SMASH!
adam crigler
SMASH!
SMASH!
unidentified
There we go.
tim pool
Maybe that's all it is.
adam crigler
Smash!
tim pool
All anyone wants to do is come in here and watch you yell smash the like button.
adam crigler
I mean, I'm learning how to temper the yell.
Notice how I turned this way and started yelling smash.
Because I don't want to blow out people's eardrums.
Maybe sometimes.
tim pool
Well you can also smash the subscribe button.
unidentified
Oh yeah!
tim pool
And the notification bell.
And share.
adam crigler
Yeah, sharing definitely, I think, is the biggest thing.
You guys share it, more people see it, they talk about it.
And that's really what, at least me, I want people talking.
I want people being able to talk about stuff.
tim pool
I gotta say, man, I gotta say, we did that episode two days ago, because you can still tell my throat's a little scratchy.
adam crigler
Calm yourself today, Tim.
We don't want a repeat.
Well, some people do.
tim pool
We ended up going a long, we ended up going like an hour extra.
And then we had this conversation that was really, really great.
Ended up snapping off and then I started getting hit at everyone's hitting me up the next day
Yeah, I I'm not gonna I want to say who but like high-profile conservative personalities were like bro
Can you can you like come on the show? Can you do this? Can you do that? And I'm just like
So I couldn't I couldn't do anything but now all of a sudden there's like, you know, I'm getting hit up across
the board I'm seeing people like ripping the video and stuff and I'm
adam crigler
like, you know, whatever man I mean all I want to see I want to see the like the you
know, they do the remix the song Wow I'm waiting for the remix.
Seriously, I've been tuning in to the internet all day, like, where's the remix?
Where's the musical people that are gonna take Tim's rant and turn it into some epic, I-don't-got-time-for-this kind of remix?
It's gonna be good.
unidentified
Nowhere to be found.
tim pool
Nowhere to be found.
adam crigler
I'm calling you out.
Whoever it is.
Whoever can do it.
Make it happen.
Maybe that should be a contest.
unidentified
Let's do this.
tim pool
I decided, you know what, man?
We often talk about straight news, but I think speculation stuff is fun too, and I don't mean- Oh my goodness, please.
adam crigler
Let's talk about it.
Or not talk about it.
tim pool
No, I mean like when we talk about weird stuff.
So someone sent me that email, I mentioned it, and let's just do this.
Check it out.
What you are seeing is the website Parlay.
This is, I guess it's the conservative refuge.
They banned, I guess people have been using it a whole lot.
I signed up a year ago, I never really used it.
But they banned Katie Hopkins, I think.
That's who it was, right?
And then all of a sudden everybody flooded in.
And guess what?
You've got a bunch of Persona non grata types who have been banned from everywhere else that are active here.
So parlay is seemingly the place to be.
But for me, I couldn't fit 880 characters on Twitter, so I wrote this on parlay.
unidentified
Check it out.
adam crigler
I like doing this too.
I like doing exclusive parlay stuff.
tim pool
Well, it's just a blog post.
Twitter is like, I couldn't fit it.
But this was more conversational.
So here's what I wrote.
You ready for this?
What happens at the end of this year?
How does a civil war start?
Someone sent me this message, and this is what I crafted from it.
November 4th, 2020.
Michigan turns red, giving Trump just enough Electoral College votes to win re-election.
Governor Whitmer intervenes and decides the Electoral College votes should go to the popular vote winner.
Democrats declare victory.
Republicans declare victory.
Both sides accuse each other of cheating.
Democrats insist the state has the right to choose, and Republicans file suit.
Far leftists go insane in the streets, smashing and destroying things.
Republicans sit at home, crossing their fingers.
SCOTUS will side with them.
Order breaks down completely. Trump invokes insurrection act to quell the violence. Democrats insist
This is it. Trump is trying to take over just like we warned
Civil War 2.0 This is just an extremely pessimistic view of what could
happen is extremely unlikely Someone emailed me making this point and I thought it was
adam crigler
interesting Oh, man, the optimism in me is like, oh, I gotta I gotta
unidentified
shoot this down No, it's not gonna happen!
adam crigler
But it could, actually.
It's very viable.
Frighteningly so.
tim pool
This is why I thought about highlighting this point, is that I've heard a lot of things, a lot of talk of what starts a civil war.
This made the most sense?
adam crigler
Absolutely.
It does make a lot of sense.
tim pool
Both sides declare victory.
It's that simple.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, There are a lot of comments from people who are saying things like, I wouldn't have believed it a year ago, I wouldn't have believed it two years ago, it's 2020, anything is possible.
I bring you now to two stories which show me it's possible.
First, a Democratic state senator was brutally beaten by the far left.
So we'll get more in-depth into this, but I want to highlight the fact that the violence has reached a point where elected officials are being beaten in the street.
Listen, You can talk about Antifa and the Proud Boys and like, ah, who cares?
It's someone throwing a brick through a window.
Oh, it's some dude stealing from a storefront.
No, this was a Democratic state senator who was out and seeing these riots, trying to take a picture, film a video, and they ran up and started beating the crap out of him.
He locked himself in his office, I guess.
So that's where we're at right now.
They tore down a statue of an abolitionist.
It is well beyond anything making sense.
adam crigler
Yeah, they don't make any sense.
They see a statue and they're like, we gotta bring it down!
tim pool
Yep, even if it was their side.
They're just literally, it's like, the far left is a fire.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's proving that it has nothing to do with any sort of, you know, message they're trying to put across.
They're just trying to burn the system down.
tim pool
The people themselves are the fire.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
They're just, whatever they can grab onto and destroy gets destroyed.
It's like, It's a zombie horde, man.
They're goin' around just beatin' and bitin' and stompin'.
So we'll come back to this later, but I wanted to highlight this, because this shows the level of violence.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Where Democrats... We're already at.
adam crigler
I wonder, what would've happened... It's the end of June.
tim pool
What do you think would've happened if that was a Republican?
adam crigler
I don't know.
tim pool
And the mob came up and started punching and striking him.
lydia smith
He'd be dead.
tim pool
Who'd be dead?
adam crigler
How would they know, though?
tim pool
No, no, no, the Republican wouldn't be dead.
unidentified
No?
lydia smith
Oh, he'd fight back, you think?
tim pool
No, no, no, no, no.
lydia smith
They'd beat him harder?
tim pool
I think the protesters would be dead.
I think the Republican would be wearing a cowboy hat and he'd be like, bang, bang, bang.
lydia smith
Yeah, he'd fight back.
tim pool
Fight back is one way of putting it.
lydia smith
Yes, that's a nice way of putting it.
tim pool
Look, would a Wisconsin Republican have a sidearm?
I don't even know what the legality is of Wisconsin.
adam crigler
I don't either.
tim pool
I just think you're substantially more likely to see a Republican armed for a lot of reasons.
I'm also surprised this guy didn't have armed security.
Democrats love doing that, especially in the Midwest.
That's not Chicago.
adam crigler
I'm sure they're going to wise up now.
Nancy Pelosi's probably like, wait a minute.
That's not what we contracted those people to do.
tim pool
She's got armed guards.
They all do.
They tell you you can't.
That's one thing that's always bothered me in Chicago.
And it's something my dad used to say, and we're like Chicago liberals.
He'd be like, it's pretty funny they'll tell you you can't have a gun, but then they can carry around theirs, right?
I think in Chicago, the aldermen are legally allowed to carry two.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
I could be wrong about that.
This is a long time ago.
I was a kid.
But anyway, this is just to showcase the violence, right?
State senator attacked by protesters as demonstrations turned violent.
By protesters?
Dude, it is a mob beating a politician.
adam crigler
Those aren't protesters.
Those aren't protesters.
lydia smith
Those are rioters.
adam crigler
Thank you.
Exactly.
There's protesters and then there's like rioters that are taking over and burning stuff down.
Those people aren't the protesters that are protesting legitimately.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
There's a huge difference.
Stop plumping them up, News.
What are you doing?
tim pool
That's what they do.
But that brings me to the next bit, which should be the worrying part of all of this.
Could it be that some state... Now, Michigan was maybe the wrong choice.
I chose Michigan because Governor Whitmer is very awful.
adam crigler
Well, aren't they trying to boot her?
tim pool
Oh, yeah.
There's recall petitions at a ton of places.
Check this out.
What you are seeing is the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
Have you heard of this?
adam crigler
I haven't.
tim pool
I have not, no.
You have heard of this?
unidentified
I have.
lydia smith
We've talked about it.
tim pool
Oh, I've talked about this a whole lot.
lydia smith
Oh, yeah.
tim pool
Here's the general idea.
A bunch of, for the most part, blue states believe that the popular vote winner should be the president.
But the current system is that the states choose their electorates and electoral votes go to whoever, you know, right?
Here's their plan.
Instead of abolishing the Electoral College, we all agree that if we have 270 votes between our pact, then we all give our votes to the popular vote winner.
Regardless of what the states vote for.
It is one of the stupidest ideas I have ever heard.
These people clearly have not thought things through.
You know why?
adam crigler
How come?
tim pool
Right now, California has 55 electoral votes.
When will it ever give those to a Republican?
Never.
You know why?
Because it is, what, 65-70% blue.
I think it's 70% blue.
Hugely, yeah.
Meaning, right now, on its own, it will always be blue.
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
They decided to do this national popular vote compact because they think the Republicans
Oh man.
can never win the popular vote.
Could you imagine what would happen in the streets of California if Donald Trump won
the popular vote and California went, we have to give it to Trump now.
Oh man.
2024.
Yeah.
They get all the electoral votes.
They have enough states now.
So they have 270 votes.
It's guaranteed.
And they're all laughing, saying, nah, we will always have Democrats.
And then Trump Jr.
wins.
And then California goes, um, I know that 75% of you voted for, you know, Swalwell.
Cheat election.
Cheat an election.
But because of this compact, we've got to give all of those votes to Trump Jr.
now.
There's nothing to make California give Republicans votes.
The only thing this does is create the possibility that blue states, solid blue states, will give their votes to a Republican.
It's the stupidest idea I've ever heard.
But they're thinking that they can win once they get the popular vote.
It'll never go Republican again.
That's wrong.
It's insane.
Because Republicans could certainly just alter parts of their platform.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
But here's the bigger point.
Right now, they have 196 electoral votes guaranteed in the compact.
They need 120, and these are pending, meaning we're really close to them getting this.
However, let me read this for you.
They say the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is an agreement among a group of U.S.
states and D.C.
to award all their electoral votes to whichever presidential candidate wins the overall popular vote in the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
The compact is designed to ensure that the candidate who receives the most votes nationwide is elected president, and it would come into effect only when it would guarantee that outcome.
And that's the main point.
What if... November 3rd.
Everybody goes and votes.
November 4th.
Moody's Analytics—this is pre-pandemic, mind you—said that with maximum historical turnout, Democrats win by only a few electoral votes, and that with normal turnout, Trump will win heftily, to say the least.
Let's say because of COVID, it becomes very, very close, and because of mail-in voting, turnout is really high.
The Democrats come shy of about 30 votes.
So California says, But because we signed this compact, if we give our votes to the national popular vote winner, it would guarantee the outcome, like it says.
adam crigler
Yeah, but that feels an awful lot like California's just picking who the president is instead of the people.
tim pool
Well, but they don't know who's going to win.
They don't know who's going to win the popular vote.
adam crigler
Oh, they wouldn't.
tim pool
They see it and then say, if we switch, then Democrats win.
OK.
adam crigler
Well, but they can't enact it unless it guarantees the outcome.
So they have to, at least there's a check to see, so they would know.
tim pool
So let's say when it comes to election night, everyone votes and California sees that if they give their electoral votes to the popular vote winner, it will guarantee the outcome.
adam crigler
That's exactly what it sounds like.
California's picking the president, not the American public.
tim pool
But it could be Georgia.
It could be Illinois.
It could be New York.
I'm just using them as an example.
adam crigler
Well, any of those examples I don't like because, again, it's putting it on one state to make the choice.
Right.
That's not OK for me.
tim pool
Any one of these states could arguably be like, well, our state chooses otherwise.
The Supreme Court's apparently going to rule on what's called a faithless elector, someone on an electoral vote who decides to vote a different direction.
You're not supposed to do that, apparently.
So I don't think what they're saying here actually strikes at the heart of what the compact is.
The compact is supposed to be that if you can guarantee 270, then you all give your votes to the popular vote.
How much you want to bet after everything the Democrats have done with every scandal, they're going back to the China thing.
They're really trying.
adam crigler
They really think that Trump's working with China.
tim pool
No, they're lying.
adam crigler
I know, but it's like, that's ridiculous.
He's like the most outspoken anti-China everything.
Like, we got to bring it back to us.
How is that?
tim pool
Think about it, man.
It's so silly.
Doesn't it seem plausible that one of these states will just be like, because of the NPVIC, we are going to give our votes to Joe Biden?
And then all the Republicans will say, no, we won the electoral college.
Now, to be fair, California already gives its votes to the Democrat.
That's a bad example.
A better example is a swing state like, you know, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, or Michigan.
That's why I use Michigan in the first place.
Let's say Michigan goes red, but then they say, yeah, but Biden won the popular vote, so we should give our electoral votes to him.
It's the will of the people.
adam crigler
Good song.
tim pool
Yeah, because, then Donald Trump and the Republicans say, no, we won fair and square, the people
have spoken.
Yeah.
Then they start arguing 11% of the population should not elect a president.
And then both sides say they're winners.
Then what?
You know what I think?
adam crigler
Boogaloo too, baby.
tim pool
Every single police officer in every major city will, with a smile and a handshake, break
the Constitution.
Enforce unconstitutional edict.
adam crigler
For who?
tim pool
For the governors.
adam crigler
So whether the governor is Democrat, they'll go for whatever they're saying.
Or Republican, they'll do whatever.
tim pool
I think in big cities, the cops will just do whatever they're told, even if it violates the Constitution.
I 100% believe that.
We already saw it happen.
When COVID happened, look, when they tried enacting the gun control stuff in Virginia, what did the sheriff say?
unidentified
Nope.
lydia smith
Not going to do it.
tim pool
Never going to do it.
And we've seen stuff, I think it was like in Oregon, too.
lydia smith
Yeah, there were a few places that happened.
tim pool
The small town cops and sheriffs are like, never gonna happen, you can't make me do it.
But the big city cops, like a few miles from here with that gym, the cops with a smile on their face walk up and say, how's it doing, how's it going ma'am?
Oh, that constitution?
I lit it on fire a long time ago, now you're under arrest.
I did a southern accent for New Jersey.
lydia smith
Yeah, I don't know, that was weird.
adam crigler
Well, it is South Jersey.
Does that count?
unidentified
They talk more like this, hey, hey, hey, you don't get no constitutional rights here.
tim pool
Get out of here.
adam crigler
That's Long Island.
tim pool
Is it Long Island?
adam crigler
That's New York.
That was more New York.
tim pool
I have no idea what people in New Jersey talk like.
adam crigler
North Jersey?
It's the same, actually.
unidentified
It's all the same.
tim pool
So what happens if it comes to this?
I think the conservatives and moderates have proven they're unwilling to fight at all, period.
They're sitting back.
Some of them are paying attention.
People like you guys watching, for the most part, pay attention.
That's why I did their rant the other day.
Like I was mentioning, I had a conversation today with a very ardent Trump supporter who was just like, ah, we're gonna win.
It's fine.
We're gonna win.
And I'm like, you really think so?
I was like, I don't know, AOC just won her primary, like, landslide.
Now we're gonna win.
And I'm like, they're burning down buildings and tearing down the founding fathers.
No one's doing anything about it.
adam crigler
I mean, AOC, she was going against a Republican today, or yesterday, or another Democrat for the spot.
tim pool
Centrist Democrat.
adam crigler
So that's not really the same thing.
It's like, just because she won just means that there's Democrats that prefer her over the other Democrat.
That's not saying much.
tim pool
These are the activist Democrats, too.
The ones who are willing to go to a primary.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
The issue is, I don't know, man.
If the Democratic voter base that is not activist is unwilling to vote in a primary, why would they vote against her in general?
If they're not paying attention, they're not paying attention.
adam crigler
But that's not the point that I was making though.
They're not going up against the Republicans, or they weren't yesterday, but they will be.
So the Republicans that do show up and vote, all these activist Democrats are going up against that group.
And that's a much bigger group.
So AOC, it's not going to be as easy to win.
She's probably awfully comfortable.
I'm just making that point though.
tim pool
That's who she's going up against.
79% of that district is swings Democrat.
So can the other group, which is not entirely Republican, it's also somewhat independent, will they get up and vote against her?
My point is, if she has that level of Democrat, when it comes time to vote, I really don't see Republicans getting up and voting.
In New York 14, they don't care.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
They're not going to do anything.
You know, the Republican in 2018 didn't even have a website apparently.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
Yeah.
You need to don't even bother.
It's like, listen, man, I can understand you think it's a foregone conclusion or
whatever, but if you aren't even running, why would anyone vote for you?
adam crigler
It's good.
tim pool
So you wonder why?
And why 14 is D plus 29.
Well, maybe it would be D plus 10 if actual Republicans voted and actually talked to the community.
But there's no, in so many of these places, no one wants to invest any money or time or energy explaining very simple things.
And the funny thing is, a lot of these people in the city are very religious.
Especially in this area, which is very Latino.
A lot of Abuelitas, Christian, Catholic, or otherwise.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, the left is basically burning down, trying to burn down Jesus now.
So it's like, maybe they might come around.
tim pool
So this attack that happened, this is the crazy thing, check this out, in Madison.
It started over a dude who went to a restaurant with a megaphone and a baseball bat and was screaming about how Jesus was stolen, he was originally Horus from Egypt, and that the white man stole it.
He's technically not wrong.
adam crigler
Yeah, lots of Christianity.
It comes from paganism, Egyptian, everything.
tim pool
All religions actually.
They're shared mythos.
adam crigler
Right, exactly.
tim pool
And so, some people argue it's because all these different religions are viewing the truth through a different lens, at a different angle.
This man happened to argue that.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
Yeah.
So it's like, you know, if you're different parts of the world, you're seeing a similar thing, but you're looking at a different way.
So you see different things that not everyone sees.
adam crigler
Right, right.
tim pool
So, uh, this guy was claiming that the white man or whatever stole Jesus.
He's not white.
There it is.
I mean, Sean King said it.
Then a guy shows up with a baseball bat.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Then they arrest him and then a riot breaks out.
adam crigler
so messed up it's like everyone can have a god and everyone like your relationship with god is your own you know i i'm not the most religious person but it's like if i imagine whatever my god would be it doesn't have to be the same as yours but i'm not even i'm not even concerned about the same with jesus it's like if if you think you you have a relationship with him whoever it is whatever it is you know you you choose what that is it's like Man, all I see is just hate.
People just hatin'.
Tryin' to throw shade everywhere, anywhere they can.
tim pool
I don't think the issue so much is the religion as the fact that Sean King said, Jesus was not white, burn it down.
And then a day later a guy shows up with a megaphone and a baseball bat screaming, Jesus wasn't white, he was Horace.
adam crigler
He put that idea in everyone's head.
What are you doing?
tim pool
Then the cops come in, they're like, yo, you can't megaphone inside a restaurant with a baseball bat.
adam crigler
You're right.
tim pool
And when they arrested him, 200 riders, you know, these riders did what they went into a private
condo and were romping about.
They surrounded like a tow vehicle.
Hey, man, listen, you want to talk about what what might happen?
Fine. I think it's it's it's it's I don't want there to be any kind of escalation.
I want things to be normal again.
You know, it was fun when we were just talking about Sonic the Hedgehog and Birds of Prey, and then all of a sudden, everything went nuts.
adam crigler
Oh, I miss making fun of Birds of Prey.
tim pool
Yeah, it was fun.
adam crigler
I'd watch it again just to make fun of it.
unidentified
Oh, man.
Should we?
adam crigler
Should we for old times?
unidentified
No.
adam crigler
Never again.
tim pool
But listen, man.
They're going in private homes.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's messed up.
tim pool
They're beating up Democratic politicians.
adam crigler
I mean, they should be worried.
There's a lot of guns now.
Everywhere.
A lot of people got guns this year.
tim pool
I just got a bunch of guns today.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Finally.
adam crigler
I was wondering if you were gonna say it or not.
tim pool
Oh yeah, bunch.
adam crigler
Lots of guns.
tim pool
And I was talking to some of these guys at the gun shop and I was like, you know, six months ago, I said, I don't want
any guns in my house.
I do not want guns.
Even after so much like breaking in, I was like, you know what?
I've thought about it.
We got local cops.
They're good dudes.
They found us out.
They were here in a minute.
I don't think I want guns in this house.
And now it's, then COVID happened, and I was like, hmm.
And then nationwide riots, and we could hear the helicopters, and I was like, one gun, please?
Four guns, please?
Five?
Six.
unidentified
Twelve.
tim pool
I'm still waiting for the SIG from Crowder.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
But apparently what they were telling me is that the suppliers are all dried up.
adam crigler
Oh, really?
tim pool
The manufacturers are sold out.
adam crigler
Not surprising.
tim pool
And so the shops are all getting cleaned out.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, man.
This one shop, the shelves are pretty empty.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
Yeah.
Yeah, they have squirt guns.
They have squirt guns instead.
adam crigler
Oh, that's funny.
tim pool
And so I went in there and I was like, Stephen Crowder recommended a gun.
They were like, don't got it.
And I was like, really?
What do you have?
And then they showed me what they got, and then I bought a bunch of guns.
adam crigler
I'll take one of everything, please.
unidentified
Pretty much, yeah.
tim pool
This is what I think, you know, a lot of these progressives don't understand when they're saying, like, Joe Biden can win.
I'm like, you know, I was asking some of the guys, I was like, what do you think it means that stores like this are selling out, like, they're struggling to get inventory, guns are going nuts, first-time buyers are through the roof?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
What do you think that means is gonna happen in November?
Trump's gonna landslide.
adam crigler
I think a lot of people, uh, you know, everyone says, you know, you take the red pill and
it's like, that's not necessarily going Republican.
That's just opening your eyes to the truth.
And I don't even, honestly, Trump isn't necessarily Republican, you know.
No, he's not.
He's not a classic Republican.
It's interesting, you know, when you really look at it all.
tim pool
The New York Times actually did an analysis of the party's manifestos, like their party lines and the words they use.
And under Donald Trump, since 2012, he pulled the party ever so slightly to the left.
adam crigler
Nice.
tim pool
And Vox said that Trump ran as a moderate.
Now, Trump certainly does adopt a lot of the traditional Republican positions.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That's true.
he is, I mean, come on man, he's the first president to support gay marriage before entering
office.
Not even Obama did that.
That's true.
So Trump is slightly to the left.
The problem is the left has gone so far left, they think Trump is far right.
adam crigler
Yeah, so all these people that are buying guns, they might not be Republican, but they're
certainly moving away from this crazy left that is running rampant through our country
tim pool
It reminds me of this skate video with Rodney Mullen and they have this cart with a flat steel top and they push it towards him.
adam crigler
Oh yeah, and he stays in the same spot?
I know this video.
tim pool
Yeah, so Ronnie Mullen in Pro Skateboarder, he ollies stationary, and then does what is, I guess, simply called a wheelie, but the platform is moving underneath him, and he's staying in the same place.
adam crigler
It's a cool video.
tim pool
Yeah, it's really cool.
And I think he flips out of it.
adam crigler
He does a lot of different tricks.
It's not just the one trick.
tim pool
Right.
That image in my mind is exactly how it feels.
Here comes the Democratic Party, and you're just staying right where you are, and now you're off.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So you look, you look at Donald Trump's.
adam crigler
And then, and then income in comes Trump.
He's like, Hey, I got you.
I'm kind of in the middle.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
No, that's what I think.
He's pulling a lot of people.
I mean, Hey, I'm, I'm not a Republican.
Look at me.
I'm in the middle.
I do.
I I'm in the middle.
I have a lot of things that I agree with both sides and I disagree with both sides, but I'm, I'm definitely in the middle.
tim pool
This is what I was thinking the other day when I did that rant.
It's like, I'm talking to these dudes today who are basically like, Trump's gonna win, I'm not worried about it.
And I'm like, if you've been sitting back while they've been tearing down statues, thinking, well, I'll vote November.
You know, look man, Trump wins, the left goes insane, they burn everything to the ground, and you sit there saying, well, you know, in four years I'll vote for Trump Jr.
adam crigler
Well, you know, I was thinking about that.
It's like, what can people do?
A lot of people have asked me since the other day.
They were like, you know, Tim's yelling at me because I'm not doing anything.
lydia smith
What am I supposed to do?
tim pool
I'm yelling at you!
adam crigler
What can I do?
What can I do, Tim?
Like, you know, some of them were getting upset at you.
And I saw a lot of examples of people quitting their jobs.
They did quit.
They lost their income and are searching for new jobs because they're fed up with it.
So what do those people do?
Do they go out and stand in front of the statues?
Jobless?
Or do they worry about where they're going to get income and focus on getting a job, which is what you'd think an average person would focus on, instead of putting themselves in harm's way when they aren't even stable themselves anymore, you know?
Because they made that choice.
tim pool
The price of freedom is high.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
It's very high.
And it's a price I'm willing to pay.
adam crigler
Down by the river.
tim pool
And if I'm the only one, so be it.
But I'm willing to bet that I'm not.
adam crigler
But you were going down by the river.
tim pool
I was just quoting Chris Evans from Cat's Eye.
adam crigler
I know, but I'm calling you out.
tim pool
What?
adam crigler
No, you were saying, it's like you'd go down by the river if things got heated.
tim pool
And anyone else could too.
adam crigler
That's true, but that's the same thing as just letting people burn the statues down.
tim pool
The interesting thing, no, no, no, no, no.
Like I'm talking about when you lose and you've lost everything and there's nothing left.
Go build a little mud hut down by the river.
Now what's funny to me is the people who have said, but Tim, I've got a family.
It's so much easier for you to say.
And I'm like, no, no, no, that's not true.
That's backwards.
It's easier for you to say.
You have kids.
It's so much easier for you to say that you'd be willing to sacrifice everything for your children than for me.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I don't have kids.
At least yet.
So I'm not necessarily scared for what the future holds for my kids.
If you have kids, it's easier for you to say, I will do everything in my power to ensure a future for my children.
You want to know something interesting?
We got baby birds out in the backyard in the deck.
And you want to know something funny?
You want something funny?
We let Buku out in the deck, okay?
He's a kitty.
And he lurks.
And he walks over.
And he walks over to where the nest is at, just underneath the panel, because they're on one of the beams.
And little tiny... And then the robin parent jumps out and starts screaming, knowing it's going to die, because a cat will kill it.
adam crigler
It's true.
tim pool
And it jumps up screaming, you will not hurt my children.
And then, the craziest thing happened.
Like, this is a true story.
Happened like last week.
Little tiny birds, I have no idea what they were, started swoop, like swooping at me.
And I was like, what?
Birds are coming after me, dude.
And the kitty's sitting on the ground, looking up, like, getting ready to pounce, and I'm like, no, no, no, we're gonna get him.
Leave the babies alone.
The good news is, the baby robins survived.
They grew up, and they left the nest.
adam crigler
Oh, they're gone?
unidentified
They're gone.
lydia smith
So fast.
tim pool
Nice.
But I saw that, and it's like, these birds know that by, like, it landed on the deck, on the post in the corner, with our cat sitting.
adam crigler
Screeching.
tim pool
Screeching, going, rah, rah!
adam crigler
Careful, careful Tim.
I know you gotta conserve your voice.
tim pool
But I'm inspired by that man.
What's the difference between that little bird that has no power whatsoever to stop a human being and the cat willing to challenge us to a fight?
I laughed and I looked at Bucko and I was like, that little bird thinks he can take us.
He's no match for a kitty and his human ally.
And it's true!
Yet he was willing to sacrifice everything for his children.
adam crigler
A lot of people forget that we are animals.
tim pool
We are a part of this ecosystem.
adam crigler
We're animals.
tim pool
We have very similar thought patterns and desires and drives.
But I'll tell you what man, those Robins haven't lost the perseverance, the strength, the survival instinct.
Survival of the fittest?
I think something has happened where people are now conflating being able to buy a loaf of bread for your kids with actually providing for your kids.
You're absolutely right.
I get it.
I get it.
I don't have kids.
I know.
adam crigler
Survival of the fittest almost doesn't exist anymore.
It's survival of who has the most money.
tim pool
But think about this.
adam crigler
It's not the same thing.
tim pool
What if your children and your wife, what if you had no access to a city?
What if you had to be a real provider going out and hunting a wild boar?
adam crigler
I've been talking about it.
People don't understand what they actually have in this world.
tim pool
It's not so much about you saying, I could lose my job and can't feed my family, it's you saying, we live in such luxury, I don't want to risk it.
I don't want to actually go back to the days where a boat landed on the shores of North America and they got off the boat and they were like, bunch of trees!
We're home, guys!
And then they jumped off the boat and were like, set up a camp, and there was no food.
That was that's crazy, man.
That mentality is gone.
That's the mentality of that little bird saying, like, I will mess you up even if it means I die.
You will not touch my babies.
Now it's like these people are saying, I understand you want to plague the minds of my babies.
That's OK.
That's OK.
As long as we can have pizza on the weekends.
adam crigler
You know, it's interesting you're saying that because I've been thinking, I mean, we talk about this all the time, just society and, you know, where we're at nowadays.
And I kind of started talking about, you know, the loss of the masculine male, you know, and like traditional, you know, families.
And when you look at Animals.
Any animal.
The alpha male is the one that procreates the most.
That survives.
That's why we're still here.
Because alpha males have been fighting and conquering and technology and like, boom, now we're here.
And that doesn't exist anymore.
We don't need the alpha male.
So the alpha male is going away and look what's happening.
Look what society is turning into.
A bunch of male feminists?
unidentified
Rapists?
adam crigler
Well, I mean, sure.
But it's not that.
Society is coddling all of us.
We are all losing that because society has let us be comfortable.
So it's society's fault as a whole that we are so comfortable that we're losing the need to have an alpha male.
Someone that's going to maintain that survivability.
Now it's all medicines.
Medicines make us live longer.
Oh, I can pay for that.
Oh, I got cancer, but I could just pay for that if I have enough money.
tim pool
On Stephen Crowder's website, they posted my rant.
adam crigler
Oh, did they?
Nice.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And in the comments section, because Stephen actually hit me up.
He was like, hey, we're going to give you some traffic.
Just want to let you know your rant was awesome.
adam crigler
Appreciate it.
tim pool
And I was like, cool, man.
Thanks, Crowder.
And so I went and checked it out, and I saw the comments.
And someone mentioned that it's easy for Tim to say, but we have kids, and we've got to put food on the table.
Right.
And one of the responses, because you can go check this out.
I think it's still there, was something like, We raised our kids totally normally.
They went to college in Oregon, and now they've gone insane and disowned us for supporting Trump.
And so it's like, you wanna talk about doing everything right and giving your kids the food they need, and then they get indoctrinated and their brains get twisted into jelly, and you could have stood up and stopped it, but you were happier just making sure they had pizza on the table.
They had their mashed potatoes and gravy and their steak.
And those are all really important things and I can respect that.
adam crigler
Yeah, food, sure.
tim pool
But we're facing a cultural crisis right now where our founding fathers are being torn from their base.
And I'm not talking about, you know, because people have tried arguing about slave owners, right?
So, at first, they started going after the Confederate statues, and they're like, why are we honoring traitors anyway?
And I'm like, you know, I gotta be honest.
I would vote in favor of taking the Confederate statues down, putting them in a museum, and putting up a plaque.
I think it'd be awesome to have a museum showing all the statues.
unidentified
That'd be really great.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
This is our history.
tim pool
And that's my opinion.
And then you put a plaque in the space that says, like, this was once home to the statue of so-and-so.
On this date at this time, we decided that we would put aside these symbols for these reasons.
It'd be cool.
But then they started going after the Founding Fathers, and the argument was slavery.
And I said, well, there's no... I will absolutely and always condemn the past, the failures of humanity, especially with slavery, and even today.
The Founding Fathers created something truly great, so I think you're missing the point here.
Now they're getting rid of abolitionists.
Now they're announcing they're going to tear down Lincoln.
adam crigler
It doesn't make any sense.
tim pool
Right, and it never will.
And so you give them an inch and they take everything from you.
And so these people who think, I can just sit back and say, well as long as my kids have food I'll be okay.
No, it won't.
They will come to your house like they did in Madison where they went to these private condos.
They will find your politicians and beat them.
And then eventually your kids are going to be sitting there.
Man, these photos are so sad.
You have this, like, normal-looking teenage girl with a smile on her face, wearing regular clothes, jeans and a t-shirt, and the next photo is, like, two years after college, and she's got this angry scowl on her face, one eye is, like, bigger than the other, and her head's shaved.
adam crigler
Are you talking about de Blasio's daughter?
lydia smith
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
adam crigler
Not specifically.
But that's a great example.
tim pool
Have you seen how they also do these weird snarl faces?
adam crigler
Yeah, I don't get that either.
tim pool
It's like they have lost their minds.
And so you think your children are safe?
You think you're saving your children by doing this?
I'm sorry, man, I don't agree.
adam crigler
Do you think every kid that goes to high school or college is going through that and ending up like that?
tim pool
No, of course not.
adam crigler
Well, what do you think the percentage is then?
tim pool
I think it's really small, actually.
adam crigler
A small percentage?
tim pool
Very small.
adam crigler
Okay, so it is another minority group then that they're just reeing the loudest then?
tim pool
And the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
And as we learned from South Park and from history, the people who threaten the violence for some reason, everyone bends the knees to them and then they get what they want.
And that's what we're trying to stop.
We want the rule of law back.
We want people to be able to live and for the system to function properly, for people to have a real chance.
adam crigler
I think the people that aren't like that don't want violence and are trying to not Be violent, but are 100% willing to be violent when it finally comes to their doorstep.
tim pool
I disagree.
adam crigler
Well, it's not at their doorstep yet, Tim.
tim pool
Look at the guy at the Macy's.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
You saw that video?
adam crigler
Okay, well, all this one example, it's like that one person.
I'm not gonna let that one person influence what I feel about it.
tim pool
They went into a private condominium and romped about and no one did anything about it and they beat the crap out of a politician.
adam crigler
Okay.
Was he armed?
No.
Did they meet someone who was armed?
tim pool
No.
I think Madison is Republican, isn't it?
lydia smith
I don't know.
I can't get up though.
tim pool
So, I agree with you for the most part.
adam crigler
Yeah, sure, we're not seeing that yet.
tim pool
But I think people are going to lock their doors and they're going to say, please leave me alone.
I think that's what's going to happen.
adam crigler
And when they break down the door... It's too late.
tim pool
It's too late at that point.
adam crigler
No, they're going to get shot.
tim pool
I don't think so.
adam crigler
What are you going to do when someone tries to break in?
tim pool
That's different.
adam crigler
Is it?
tim pool
Yeah, it is.
adam crigler
How?
tim pool
I'm not the average person who's cowering.
I'm the person who actually stood up and said, tear up my contract right now.
adam crigler
Yeah, but they're tearing down the statues right now.
They're doing... It's not you, it's the whole country now.
tim pool
What I'm saying is, I'd be willing to bet in many areas, many rural areas, you will get a shotgun blast to the face if you even walk in their house.
There's a video of a guy who drove down the wrong driveway.
Do you see this one?
adam crigler
Yeah, I saw that.
tim pool
And the guy's like, he shot at his car.
Like some people, man, I hear ya.
adam crigler
But in the suburbs... But that's the beginning.
We're not seeing it yet.
This is the beginning.
Dude, Wisconsin is blue.
Illinois is blue.
Madison's blue.
tim pool
Right, but I think what you're... Is Madison blue?
adam crigler
I'm pretty sure.
tim pool
Probably.
It makes sense.
Someone mentioned, because I'm not super familiar with it, but they'll probably mention whether... I'll see you guys in the chat.
adam crigler
Madison is very liberal.
Yeah, everyone's saying, yeah, the chat's pretty uniform.
unidentified
Check this out.
tim pool
When it comes time, I do not believe you will see random Antifa roaming the suburbs.
I believe you will see people who are in the armed forces or police department.
And what's someone going to do when a cop shows up?
Like, you gotta look at what happened in Venezuela, Cuba, Soviet Union.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
You did have, in history, in the Spanish Civil War, you did have factions fighting each other in the streets.
But what I think is a really... I don't wanna act like it's super likely because, you know, who knows what's gonna happen.
It's easy to make claims, it's hard to know for sure.
adam crigler
I want to know what to do, though.
Saying that the price of freedom is high is not an answer.
What do people do?
What can they do right now?
tim pool
Protest.
Peacefully.
Law-abiding peaceful protests.
adam crigler
So peacefully go out and protest.
tim pool
Link arms, guarding statues, don't bring weapons.
And then when the video cameras start rolling and it shows, you know, a middle-aged Latino mom saying, please stop being beaten by Antifa, that might suck for that woman for sure.
Because I've been in that situation.
What do you think people... Look what happened when Andy Ngo got beaten by Antifa.
Do you remember this?
That was a nightmare scenario for the far left.
A gay Vietnamese child of immigrants was brutally beaten in the streets while he couldn't even fight back.
And everyone turned.
They tried smearing him, they tried slamming him, but boy, it was not working.
It was a bad, bad show for them.
adam crigler
Well, that happened in Chaz like three days ago.
It was, I mean, not as prominent as Andy Ngo, but it was a Japanese reporter.
He was for Black Lives Matter, going in to show how peaceful it was, and they beat him up.
tim pool
They beat the crap out of him.
adam crigler
Yeah, they did.
tim pool
But then he came out still in favor of them.
And he wasn't American.
adam crigler
How?
tim pool
Because it's a cult, man.
adam crigler
No, no, I know.
I know actually why.
Because that's what I said earlier.
There's a difference between the people who are peacefully protesting and the people who are not there that are trying to take a hold of it and steer it down a different street.
tim pool
It's about power.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
Here's what I see happening.
If you get a bunch of regular people, middle-aged men and women, and they show up around a Columbus statue and they link arms, and that's it.
The statue will not come down.
The statue will not come down.
But no one will do that.
It's a peaceful assembly.
It's law-abiding.
And then the issue for these local politicians like Cuomo is that they're looking at what's happening.
And they see large, loud, angry activist base destroying things, and no one else cares.
So they say, hey look, if the only people who care are the ones burning everything to the ground... I guess this is what it is.
That's who's gonna vote for me.
So I'll give them what they want.
So it's all you gotta do.
And guess what?
These people are violent.
These people may bring weapons.
You might get hit, but you have to be peaceful.
And it works.
And the left will tell you it doesn't because they're wrong.
They're 100% wrong.
They've weaponized victimhood to an extreme degree.
They know exactly why peaceful protest works.
They know that when the video comes out of the cop dragging the protester away, they win sympathy.
That's what they've been doing the entire time.
What I've been telling people is, when you look to the extreme right, it's a high-intensity, extreme moment where one person commits an atrocity, and it shocks and terrifies everyone.
What Antifa and far-leftists do is low-grade terrorism, where they'll hit you one time and no one cares that it happened.
but then when you fight back they cower and shake and go ahhh and when the cops move in
to make arrests they're going help help and the videos come out and they go look what's
happening to us we're being repressed.
adam crigler
I think that's what Chas was.
I think Chas was a big ploy to try to get Trump to bring in the army and they would
shut him down and they would have been like this is what we're talking about.
tim pool
And the mayor would have said.
adam crigler
Boom.
Yep.
tim pool
Exactly.
The mayor was like it was our summer of love.
What was Trump doing?
adam crigler
People were getting shot and they can't handle it anymore.
So they took Chaz down.
The mayor asked them.
They were like going around like, all right, we're gonna peacefully leave.
Thanks everybody.
tim pool
Is that what happened?
adam crigler
Yes.
tim pool
After four shootings.
adam crigler
It's just like, really, hmm.
tim pool
You want to know what you need to do is, I don't think, I wasn't telling people, and I hope people realize this, just to arbitrarily be like, I quit!
For no reason.
adam crigler
Right, no, no, no.
tim pool
But to actively protest if they made you do something you didn't want to do.
If they were like, we want you to wear this, you know, this symbol on your vest.
adam crigler
Oh no, that's basically what it was.
tim pool
Right.
adam crigler
Like, you have to conform.
And they're like, no, I'm not doing that.
And then they got fired.
tim pool
And then when you hear, like right now we're hearing that they're going to go tear down the Statue of Lincoln.
Where is that?
Is that in D.C.?
adam crigler
No, I don't know.
But I know that there's this whole Antifa flag burning ceremony that's supposed to happen July 4th in Gettysburg.
So that's really not very far from here.
tim pool
Maybe we should go there and do a live show from the flag burning.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Oh, my.
I don't think I don't think they would like seeing either of us there.
I think you and I both are a target to them.
tim pool
So do people want to burn Antifa flags?
adam crigler
No, no, no.
Antifa is showing up to burn American flags.
unidentified
No, no, no.
adam crigler
You still want to go?
No.
Yeah, I didn't think so.
tim pool
No, that's not my game.
I thought you meant that the right was going to burn Antifa flags.
adam crigler
No, no, no.
They're meeting in Gettysburg because that's one of the largest battles that we fought.
For this country.
lydia smith
Oh, they do know something about history.
How nice.
adam crigler
They know a little something.
tim pool
Surface level nonsense.
adam crigler
And July 4th.
It's a pretty big day for us.
I don't know if you know about that.
tim pool
I'm excited for the 4th of July.
But look, I'll say it one more time just because I really want to drive it home.
All it takes is for you to show up, no shields, no weapons, no helmets, nothing.
And link arms.
And you know what might happen?
You will get Andy Node.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
It's gonna hurt.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
throw milkshakes in your face, they will punch you, you'll be left bleeding, and then the
entire media will be like, why were these local residents begging these extremists to
stop being brutally beaten while they didn't fight back?
This is what people don't understand about perception.
There's this famous comic that goes around, and it shows a circle, and in it you see what
looks like a hand and a knife, and a person being shocked, like they're about to be stabbed,
and then the bigger picture is a camera, and it's actually the knife is actually the foot
of the person running away, and the person shocked is the person actually reaching to
stab them, meaning the framing of the camera changed what you thought was happening.
Yeah.
adam crigler
Certainly learned that in the past couple months.
tim pool
So, peaceful protests work.
100%.
They absolutely do work, because you stay within the confines of what's morally acceptable, and you become the victim.
And this is why this one dude got fired from his job.
They say, this researcher tweeted out from an African-American social psychology professor, I guess, or whatever his position was, that peaceful protests Result in a two-point swing and
Violent riots result in a two-point drop for the party. So like
They do specifically talking about Democrats versus Republicans. Yeah, excuse me
Editor when peaceful protests happen positive coverage emerges
Mm-hmm, and then the the party that's peacefully protesting gets a ton of attention talks about their issues and they
win over supporters When the group gets violent and destroys thing it swings in
the other way because they're the bad guys now So it's possible that Antifa has lost a ton of favor because of the violent riots, but the media covered for them the whole time, saying peaceful protesters, they blamed the police for it.
adam crigler
Right, even here, like look at this article, Wisconsin state senator attacked by protesters Seriously.
As demonstrations in Madison turned violent.
No, they showed up to riot because they were pissed that someone rightfully got arrested for what he... He didn't get killed.
He was arrested.
tim pool
Right.
And they rioted and destroyed things.
adam crigler
That's it.
He was threatening people with a bat in a private restaurant.
And they told him no.
He said, you can't stop me.
I've got a bat.
I'll try to stop me.
I dare you.
It's like, okay, so now he's threatening people.
They arrest him.
What do you think's gonna happen?
tim pool
What do you think would happen if 50, 70-year-old little grannies linked arms around a statue?
adam crigler
They'd be the bossest humans I've ever seen.
tim pool
I'd be willing to bet Antifa wouldn't go anywhere near them and say anything at all.
Because they know.
Somebody might.
They've attacked old people in the past.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But could you imagine the cameras rolling and the granny brigade with like fresh cookies and little trays were standing around saying, Grandma says no violence.
And then they started whacking old ladies.
adam crigler
Okay, so just real quick, we have an art contest going on right now.
I want to see that.
Yes, the Granny Brigade.
The Granny Brigade, protecting statues with cookies, giving them out, and Antifa just standing there like, meh.
Alright, please continue.
tim pool
What you were saying about baiting Trump is exactly it.
They want to trick you into getting violent so they can use that against you.
When the Proud Boys got into a fight in New York, they went to prison.
And the left was like, We tricked these people into swinging the punch.
And now we won.
adam crigler
It's so obvious what Chaz was.
That's what it was.
They were trying to push, like, why isn't Trump doing anything?
Why isn't Trump bringing this down?
It's like, what do you mean?
It's the states.
You've just been drilling him for not doing anything for COVID.
And they're like, no, we get to decide what we do with COVID because we're the states.
And then this happened and they're like, Trump!
Why?
It's like, no, you're the state.
You deal with it.
What?
tim pool
But Trump told the governor and the mayor to deal with it.
adam crigler
Right, because it makes America look bad.
tim pool
But they mocked Trump for it.
And now, four shootings later, what is her name, Jenny Durkin or whatever, is like, oh, well, I mean, you know.
It's like, that's on you.
You could have stopped this at any point.
adam crigler
She could have stopped it.
tim pool
And the police said they were told to get out.
adam crigler
Yep, exactly.
tim pool
So what did you think was going to happen?
adam crigler
What do you think?
lydia smith
Summer of love.
tim pool
Summer of love.
And she walked that back.
She's like, well, I didn't really, you know.
adam crigler
That sounds like a horror film.
Summer of Love.
Yeah, it does.
A bad one.
tim pool
I'm gonna write a song called Summer of Love.
Oh, good.
adam crigler
I'll back you up on it.
tim pool
I actually had a really good idea for a song.
You know the sign said, long-haired freaky people need not apply.
adam crigler
Great song, yeah.
It applies to me.
tim pool
I was thinking in that kind of upbeat kind of vein, and the normies said, please just leave me alone.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And so it can be, the song can be called Summer of Love.
And I was thinking, I'm in the early stages of writing it where it's basically going through all the crazy things that have been escalating.
adam crigler
You're such a storyteller.
tim pool
Like, yeah, all my songs are stories.
adam crigler
I know they're great.
tim pool
So it's like, you know, first they said, you know, don't, don't insult me.
Then they said, use my pronouns.
Then they said, we just want to add a character to your video games.
And then it ends with, then they're in my home with a gunpoint on my head.
And the normies said, please just leave me alone.
adam crigler
And then a gunshot.
tim pool
And it'll be called the Summer of Love.
Because it ends with them surrounding your house and setting up an autonomous zone where they start demanding money from you.
And I say, here's the money, but please just leave me alone.
Then they came in and stole my food and ripped the copper out of the walls to sell.
And I said, yeah, yeah, you can take it, but please just leave me alone.
At what point do these people realize they're literally not leaving you alone?
That's what's happening.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
Well, Trump didn't take the bait.
adam crigler
No, he didn't.
Because he's actually smart, despite what everyone tries to... Well, I don't want to say everyone, but the Democrats, the far left.
Doesn't mean he's going to win.
No, I know.
It is.
It's up in the air right now, but I know who I'm voting for.
tim pool
The New York Times did a... They released their poll.
Biden 50, Trump 36.
And I keep hearing from everybody, yeah, the polls are wrong, the media is wrong.
And I'm like...
adam crigler
Well, Hillary had a 97% chance to win.
tim pool
87.
adam crigler
No, the day before.
I looked into it.
It's like the day before, it was November 2nd, and she had a 97% chance to win.
I was like, oh wow, she lost.
lydia smith
They were confident.
tim pool
The New York Times, but that's probability, not polls.
So the New York Times released an explainer talking about how they did their polling, and they said that even though they predicted Hillary would win, Trump was still in the correct national popular vote margins.
adam crigler
Yeah, but we look about right now the temperature in America and imagine people are being ostracized from groups for saying, I'm a Trump supporter.
Like someone called, you said it yourself, someone calls you up and said, who are you voting for?
Oh, I'm going to vote for Biden.
Click.
tim pool
It could be.
adam crigler
Of course they're going to say Biden.
They're not going to tell anybody that they're voting for Trump.
tim pool
But think about the simple solution here.
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
We are saying there must be... So the simple solution is the polls got released.
Trump is losing.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
That's it.
Now we are trying to justify how that could possibly be.
lydia smith
Right.
tim pool
But that's not what's being presented to us.
So it could be irrational of us to try and justify why Trump really is doing better.
adam crigler
Well, maybe it's good though, because you said it's like if they think he's going to lose, they're going to show up.
tim pool
It's actually, yes and no.
If you think you're going to lose completely, you don't bother.
So it's a mix of, I think Trump's going to lose, but he has a chance.
adam crigler
You've got to be worried.
Have you seen Trump rallies?
The people that show up there, they're not going to get disheartened.
They're going to rally.
tim pool
He didn't have his million people in Tulsa.
Listen, listen.
You could make every excuse in the book for why people didn't show up.
Oh, but 13 plus, you know, 13 or so million watched online.
It's a huge number.
Or not online, but remotely.
It's true.
But if people aren't willing to actually get up and go support the president in person, then maybe they won't be willing to do it in November.
adam crigler
I think for, look, I think the people that didn't show up, there's a lot of this COVID thing people are still afraid of.
And it's like, if they keep shoving it down your throat, they're not going to show up for the Democrats either.
It's not like it's only the Republicans who are afraid of that.
It's like everyone, I feel.
tim pool
What did you just tell me about ballots popping up with only Democratic votes on them?
adam crigler
I see it.
It's not just one source.
It's popping up.
I'm seeing it.
tim pool
Pull it up.
adam crigler
OK, what's going on here?
tim pool
Pull it up.
Read that one.
adam crigler
Oh, man.
The New Jersey NWACP says a leader calls for Patterson mail-in vote to be canceled amid corruption claims.
So we have proof that there's corruption in mail-in voting.
tim pool
And this is just one story, man.
There's a lot.
adam crigler
And I'm pretty sure it's a blue state, isn't it?
unidentified
Yeah, sure is.
adam crigler
It's a blue state.
Funny you should say that.
I've seen a lot, a lot, when I say this I mean a lot, over 300 easy comments of people talking about how their dead loved ones voted Democrat.
That they were like, my mother's been dead for 10 years and I just got this thing that she voted Democrat.
lydia smith
So weird.
adam crigler
In two elections.
tim pool
Hold on, check this out.
I don't want to name the person, so if you know the name, please don't say it.
lydia smith
I won't.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
But we got a mail-in ballot to this house.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
We did.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
I didn't.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
I got an application for a mail-in ballot.
lydia smith
This is not for Tim.
Sneeze, Tim, sneeze.
tim pool
A ballot came.
Oh, man.
adam crigler
I just let it out.
I love a good sneeze.
No!
I love a good sneeze.
Sneezing feels so good.
lydia smith
It does.
adam crigler
It's awesome.
It's basically your body getting rid of an irritant.
That's literally what a sneeze is.
Yay!
I love a good sneeze.
tim pool
Alright, there you go.
Resistance was futile.
Listen, we got a mail-in ballot here, and I was shocked when it came.
I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, what?
Why is this here?
And then I said, where's the rest of the mail-in ballots for people in the house?
We don't have them.
lydia smith
We got a few.
No, we don't.
tim pool
No, you're wrong.
We got applications for ballots.
We got applications for ballots, meaning I can fill it out and then ask for one, And it's shocking because it seems like there's no time for that to actually happen.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
But why did this one come for somebody who's not here?
Yeah.
I don't like it.
adam crigler
It's fishy.
I don't like the system.
I don't trust the system anymore.
tim pool
A mail-in ballot came here for someone who does not live here.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And how hard would it be for some person to just, like, fill it out?
adam crigler
Well, this person's voting for me.
tim pool
Well, that's what's happening in New Jersey, man.
adam crigler
And that's just one state.
lydia smith
That is here.
That's New Jersey.
adam crigler
And it's blue.
lydia smith
That's happening here.
adam crigler
It's a blue state.
lydia smith
Crazy.
tim pool
And listen, I chose this story for a reason.
NAACP leader says cancel the vote.
That's not a Republican.
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
No, that's not a Republican.
That's a Democrat.
And 20% of the vote was voided.
adam crigler
That's crazy.
tim pool
20%.
That's insane.
adam crigler
That's a lot.
lydia smith
That'll swing an election, dude.
tim pool
So I tell you what, man.
When I hear from my friends, they're saying things like, you know, make voting easier.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
We need to get mail-in voting.
And I'm like, you can't just say things.
OK, I understand your point.
But now we're looking at an entire group of black voters completely disenfranchised by your progressive policy.
adam crigler
Oh, Democrats, hmm?
Democrats trying to control and being racist?
tim pool
Here's the simple example that I give to people so they can understand the problem with surface-level solutions.
Let's say there's a protester in the street, just one, and he's holding up a little sign saying, ban cilantro.
And you're like, it's a ridiculous cause, it's stupid, this is ridiculous, right?
adam crigler
But you hate cilantro, don't you?
tim pool
I hate it.
adam crigler
So wouldn't you at least applaud a little bit?
tim pool
I'd be like, yeah, you go, brother.
This is part of the point, right?
Some people are sitting there going like, rock on, brother.
Cilantro's nasty.
But traffic is blocked up for a long ways.
adam crigler
Because he's standing in the middle of the street.
tim pool
So the cops walk up and they say, we got to clear the street.
Yo, buddy, move.
He says, no.
I have a First Amendment right to peaceably assemble.
The cops say, if you don't move, you'll be arrested.
The cop thinks, we got to clear the traffic.
The easiest way to do it, just arrest the guy.
adam crigler
Well, obstructing vehicular traffic is actually a misdemeanor.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
So the cop says, the easiest way to deal with this right now is to just arrest the guy.
And he does.
And tomorrow there's ten protesters.
Police brutality!
These nasty cops violated our rights!
So then the cops come out and they put on shields this time and they go start smacking
heads and locking these people up.
The next day a hundred protesters show up.
The simple solution to this problem seems just arrest them and they're done.
And then you incite more protests.
So I'm not saying you never stop the protesters, you never arrest them.
I'm saying you've got to think about what happens and how you engage.
So if Trump, for instance, came out to Chaz with, you know, APCs and soldiers, he would have made it a hundred times worse.
adam crigler
You're right.
tim pool
That's a good point.
Instead, he sat back and they lit themselves up and now the mayor looks like an idiot.
adam crigler
It's true.
unidentified
You're right.
lydia smith
Even though it's frustrating that he didn't do anything.
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
So I bring this up because the people who are all screaming for mail-in voting are the cops saying the easiest way to get rid of the protesters is to arrest them.
The easiest way to get people to vote is just send them a ballot.
And then you open the door to the whole thing being bunk.
But think about it.
We talked about Democrats and Republicans claiming victory on both sides, right?
So what happens if they decide to go mail-in voting?
And then, in Newark, New Jersey, 50,000 mail-in votes are voided.
The whole election, Trump didn't win.
adam crigler
Turns out they're all Republican votes, too.
They just voided the Republican votes.
The Democrats all went through.
tim pool
That's not what I mean, though.
adam crigler
I'm just adding a layer of conspiracy onto that.
tim pool
Trump wins a resounding victory.
He wins, you know, 500 electoral votes.
and the democrats find one state where the mail-in vote is broken and they say we have to
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
avoid the whole election look look at the state the whole thing is corrupt
if this one's bad they're all bad and they refuse to accept it
now to be fair it would have to be a close race
trump wins but then they find one suspicious state and it goes
And then what happens?
The Supreme Court says, even though Trump won the Electoral College and the popular vote, this fraud means the Democrats win everything.
And then the Supreme Court sides with the Democrats, and Trump gets told he's a loser even though he actually won.
Then what happens?
adam crigler
Civil War?
tim pool
Maybe not.
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
I mean, maybe.
But I'm just understanding what are conservatives and moderates, linking hands and guarding statues?
Are moderates, look at the Black Lives Matter guy who got fired from Taco Bell.
And then look at the Trump supporters outside of the convention who were told to leave because of curfew.
They said, you got a boss and they just walked away.
Now the next day they got rid of the curfew, for sure.
But I never see conservatives go out and protest or moderates go out and protest.
It's always the far left.
In fact, Democrats don't even go out and protest.
And they do sometimes.
It's mostly the extremists, and then they win every single time.
lydia smith
I read a story on Twitter today where there was a left-wing activist, like a social justice warrior, who quit her job because her boss made a racist or sexist joke.
And I was like, if this leftist can quit her job on the spot because a joke hurt her feelings, then why can you not consider taking steps to make your voice heard in a principled way at your job without freaking out about it?
Why would you not even consider this?
tim pool
I gotta say, man, the left has... It's part of their temper tantrum, but you gotta understand what a temper tantrum is.
adam crigler
Lack of emotional intelligence.
tim pool
The willingness to demand and refuse to compromise.
adam crigler
And competence.
tim pool
A temper tantrum is the unwillingness to compromise.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
It's the toxic version of it.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Rolling on the ground, screaming, demanding, but guess what?
It's working.
adam crigler
Well, this is what I was saying earlier about how society has coddled us.
We're spoiled.
We have everything, and a lot of us appreciate it, but a lot of people have no idea.
tim pool
It's true.
unidentified
Hello.
tim pool
Why is she yelling?
adam crigler
There's a cat.
lydia smith
The fatness has ascended.
adam crigler
The cat is here.
tim pool
What is she yelling about?
There's another cat.
lydia smith
She wants attention.
adam crigler
She likes me.
tim pool
She does.
Well, she's mad because Ian's gone.

Yeah, she hangs out with him.
He keeps her company.
adam crigler
Yep, it's true.

Let's talk about Bubba Smollett.
adam crigler
Oh yeah.
tim pool
Bubba Smollett.
Now his real name is Bubba Wallace.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
But I think he apologized for this, right?
Like, he said he was embarrassed?
adam crigler
Yep.
lydia smith
Yeah, he did.
tim pool
Good for him, dude.
adam crigler
Well, no, not necessarily.
He kinda did it in the loosest way possible.
But I'm gonna pull up his tweet here.
tim pool
Alright, do it.
adam crigler
I wanna read exactly what he said.
tim pool
You go ahead.
We'll go through the gist of the story.
Most of you know this.
And I gotta tell you, man, I actually got an email about this story.
adam crigler
Did you?
tim pool
That nailed it.
100%.
Got the whole thing right.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Bubba Wallace relieved by FBI finding no crime in noose, but frustrated by reaction.
Well, he apparently changed his story.
For those that aren't familiar, Bubba Wallace is the only black diaspora, I think that's what they refer to it as, racer in NASCAR, and he found a garage pull cord for the door.
It's like, if you have a garage, you have a pull cord.
It's tied in a loop so you can grab it and pull on it.
It's easier to do.
Well, he found that, and he said it was a noose.
And then NASCAR issued this big statement, and then he like drove his car and they all marched behind him and like sang songs and whatever, and it turns out it was a pull cord.
The FBI investigated.
Tucker Carlson was very, very critical of the FBI for doing this.
I completely disagree.
I'm glad the FBI did.
The FBI found that it was not a noose.
lydia smith
I think Tucker's argument was that there were 15 agents sent there while people were pulling down statues.
adam crigler
They did say a lot of agents were sent in there.
tim pool
It's true, but I'm glad they did.
lydia smith
It's a little overkill.
tim pool
I'm glad they did.
These incremental fake hoaxes cause so much damage.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
And it's on par with tearing down the statue.
Now, should they be doing something about the statues?
Yes.
But I think, as we stated in a previous segment, Trump's strategy is these Democratic senators are trying to bait him and they're burning themselves down.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
What if, because of all the chaos and destruction in these blue states, I mean, like, dude, we announced it a long time ago, we're getting out of Jersey because of how awful Murphy was.
adam crigler
It's true.
tim pool
This lunatic of a governor, I'm not kidding, marching with the protesters and then shutting down businesses and arresting people.
Yep.
The guy lost his mind.
So we're done.
You lose all our business, all that tax money is gone.
And I wonder how many other people are getting out of Dodge.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
They thought they were going to get Trump.
They thought Trump will come in and help and we'll have the last laugh.
Nope.
So maybe Trump's strategy is let them burn their own states to the ground.
They're the ones in charge, and they'll get voted out.
And then you get a whole bunch of red governors.
So Trump, at the federal level, sends the FBI to investigate something he can actually investigate.
Turns out Bubba Wallace, aka Bubba Smollett, wasn't real.
So he tweeted about it, right?
Do you have the tweet?
adam crigler
Well, I have it.
I don't want to switch right now while that camera... Thank you.
tim pool
Wait.
lydia smith
What are you doing over there?
Okay, there we go.
tim pool
Adam's pulling up the... Oh, okay.
lydia smith
Sorry, my bad.
It was a misunderstanding.
tim pool
We are pulling up the tweet from Bubba Smollett.
adam crigler
Go ahead.
tim pool
You wanna read it?
adam crigler
Yeah sure, so this is his response basically.
It's been an emotional few days.
First off, I won't say how relieved I am, or I want to say how relieved I am that the investigation revealed that this wasn't what we feared it was.
I want to thank my team, NASCAR, and the FBI for acting swiftly and treating this as a real threat.
I think we'll gladly take a little embarrassment over what the alternatives could have been.
Make no mistake though, some will try.
This should not detract from the show of unity we had on Monday and the progress we've made as a sport to be a more welcoming environment for all.
So, looking at this, first off, he's not saying I was embarrassed, you know, he's saying we.
So it's like, you should be embarrassed.
A little bit.
Yeah.
It is embarrassing.
But, at the same time, I can emphasize, I can see it.
It's like, you said it earlier, people are wound up tight.
There is, everybody's talking about race, racism, racism, racism, everything, war, like all the stuff's going on.
So like, I can definitely imagine him seeing it, walking and seeing it.
It's like, you don't see those things.
Cell towers, right?
You don't notice them until someone points them out.
Oh, do you know what that is?
tim pool
This is my favorite example.
adam crigler
Cell tower.
That's why I'm bringing it up.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
But it's like, same thing.
You're working NASCAR.
You're not looking at the pull cord.
But nowadays, what the environment we're in, he sees it.
I don't blame you at all, Bubba.
I don't.
I don't.
I get it.
It was, it sucks.
tim pool
And it probably wasn't him, to be honest.
adam crigler
And you know what?
The feeling that he felt when he saw it, That's true.
They panicked.
And that's people people are just making fun of him calling him Bubba Smollett.
Yeah, I don't like that because he actually went and hired some people to do something
where this is completely different.
He saw this and felt something.
Well, he felt something real because it is real in our history.
tim pool
So we have to.
adam crigler
It's not real, actually.
The fact that they were being hung a hundred years ago.
tim pool
Less than that.
adam crigler
I don't know the last time it happened.
tim pool
The leaving nooses lying around as some kind of statement is apparently a really new thing.
It's not a historical thing.
adam crigler
No, no, no.
I'm not talking about that.
tim pool
You're talking about hangings.
adam crigler
Racism.
It is founded in reality that we've been through in our history.
So it's like, I get it.
I kind of feel for them.
tim pool
For sure.
The fairest point is that Jussie Smollett hired two dudes.
adam crigler
Correct.
tim pool
This joke on Tucker Carlson was amazing.
I have to repeat it.
I can't remember the guy who said it, but he said, America is not a racist country, it turns out.
And Jussie Smollett had to hire two foreigners to do a job Americans wouldn't do.
And Tucker starts laughing like crazy.
He's like, I've never heard that was great.
And it's a good point.
He hired two foreigners to do a job.
Not only that, but they were Nigerian of all.
So, so, so Bubba, is a victim of media hysteria.
And I can respect the statement he made.
unidentified
I wish he would have done a little bit more.
tim pool
I have no problem, right?
So the next story we have that I want to highlight is the cops did the same thing.
The NYPD who thought their milkshakes were funky.
And so it was their boss who was like, shut it down, go to the hospital.
Overreacting, panicking.
So when I saw this, I immediately was like, you know what, I jumped the gun on this one.
I tweeted, Shake Shack straight poisoned two cops.
Things are getting insane.
And to be fair, I thought what I was saying was like, they actually got sick.
I don't know how they got sick, but like they got poisoned from Shake Shack.
adam crigler
But they just taste it and they're like, oh, this is gross.
tim pool
What I mean to say is my statement was too definitive, and I was wrong.
And so I tweeted out, like, I'm gonna eat this one.
I was totally wrong.
I jumped the gun.
I should have waited.
I assumed if the police had tweeted it and the journalists did, it must have been true.
A lot of other journalists made the same mistake on Covington.
I should know better.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
So that's the environment we're in right now.
It's tense.
tim pool
Well, what I mean is, I have no problem saying, I did a bad job and I'll do better next time.
This guy's saying, we'll be a little embarrassed here.
No, no, no, Bubba, just say it.
You were wrong.
And boy, do you feel dumb, but it's okay.
I would have a lot more respect if you came out and said, yikes.
Well, I look like an idiot.
I hope you guys can forgive me for putting you through this, but you gotta understand why I'm wound up a little bit based on everything that's happening.
And that's why I can respect to what he's, you know, an extent.
To that extent.
adam crigler
And now I want to talk about the last part of it.
Because he says, you know, it shouldn't detract from the show of unity that we had on Monday.
And it's like...
Look, man, this is where we are now in life.
Most people are not racist.
It's not just on Monday.
Everyone came together and we're like, wait, really?
Did this happen?
Well, we're going to make sure we prove that it didn't happen.
And it's like, that's the norm.
People seem to believe that racism is like rampant among everybody.
And it's like, no, that's also a minority.
A minority of people.
I don't know any races.
I met a few in my life and I cut them out immediately.
And I blew up on them.
And I snapped.
They know my mind.
They know I'm not about that.
I don't talk to them anymore.
tim pool
I think racism is being brought back by the left.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly it is.
It's giving the free pass.
tim pool
Absolutely.
There are some people, so I was in an Uber in Texas, and boy was this one of the most uncomfortable rides I've ever had.
Dude was hardcore racist.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
Yeah, he was in racial slurs, mostly targeting black people and stuff like this.
Man, that would... And you know what gave him what he was talking about?
He was talking about the left and the things they were doing.
It opened a door for him to say, you know, there's all these people coming out with this Black Lives Matter stuff, and they started going off.
And it was like the things that these activists did.
And I got to be honest, I was I was very like he could tell I was getting angry.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Using slurs and stuff and the things he was saying.
And then he shut it down quick.
But this was well after the Dallas shootings where the black identity extremist was killing a bunch of cops.
You're familiar with that?
adam crigler
Yeah, I know of it.
Yeah.
tim pool
Shot a protester.
Someone was shielding your kids.
And so this guy's going off about Black Lives Matter and stuff, and he's just going hard at it.
And I'm like, I'm thinking to myself, you know what, man?
This guy's a racist.
But now he thinks because of what they've done, I can say whatever I want because people are going to agree because they don't like it.
adam crigler
Right, that's stereotyping.
It's saying that I saw one person of this specific race do something bad.
Everybody of that race is that same person.
It's like, that is a problem.
tim pool
No, I think this guy was overtly racist for other reasons.
adam crigler
Probably, sure.
But I think he was thinking... That is what happened, though.
He is doing that.
He's like, well, this guy did it, so they all are like that.
I'm gonna just put them all in the same bracket.
tim pool
No, no, no, not him.
adam crigler
Maybe not consciously.
tim pool
What I'm saying is that because of these negative stories in the press, It gave him an opportunity to say, hey, you hate those guys killing those cops, right?
I'm like, yeah, he goes, yeah, and then he goes off.
So once he gets you to agree with him, all these things they're doing is bad, right?
They're shooting people, they're out throwing bricks and fireworks and stuff, and you're like, it's all awful.
And then he tries pushing to see how far he can take you.
What I'm saying is racists are being emboldened by the extremist actions of the left in the name of racial justice.
And they know that regular people are getting scared of the violence, and it's giving an opening to racists to be like, ooh, now's my chance.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, I'm not saying they don't exist, you know, but it's not the norm anymore.
tim pool
It's certainly not.
And a lot of these people that they're a lot older, relics of a bygone era.
adam crigler
Like Biden?
tim pool
Yeah, like Biden.
adam crigler
That's the first thing that pops in my head.
lydia smith
Dude, so racist, man.
adam crigler
Relics.
Old racist person.
unidentified
Yep.
adam crigler
Yeah.
You're right.
lydia smith
We're having some allergy troubles.
adam crigler
Yeah, man, I am so happy I don't have allergies.
Yeah, it's not great.
I feel bad for people who do.
tim pool
Yeah, well, I don't think it's allergies, I think I just sneezed.
Sometimes people sneeze.
unidentified
What?
Really?
lydia smith
Scandal.
tim pool
But yeah, to go to the police thing too, in LA, a guy claimed that he had a tampon in his frappuccino or whatever.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Clearly was not a tampon.
lydia smith
We were talking about this yesterday when it happened.
Cause I came up with this, I came across the story and I was like, holy cow, this is crazy.
You know, this is biohazard if it really is like a gross used tampon.
unidentified
Yeah.
lydia smith
It's disgusting.
Right.
And then a few minutes later, Tim's like, no, this is, this is not, this is fake news or whatever.
And I was like, good.
That's great.
tim pool
I was like, I'm not falling for this again.
I threw out the milkshake thing.
lydia smith
Yeah, never again.
But I was like, my first response was, that makes me feel so much better about people.
And that's kind of what I see happening with Bubba, because he's like, I see a positive side to this.
Like, this isn't the way people really are.
I'm embarrassed, but I'm really glad this is the case, you know?
tim pool
Yeah, I'm happy for him.
adam crigler
People gotta stop making fun of him.
It's like, it's an embarrassment.
People are allowed to make mistakes.
People are allowed to make mistakes.
lydia smith
Yeah, as long as you apologize and own up to it.
adam crigler
You know, I mean, if he's going to lean into it and double down after knowing... He did.
Yeah, and he did some of that.
Now, that's a little bit different of a story.
tim pool
Right.
adam crigler
You know, that's getting into the Smollett side of things.
unidentified
Yep.
It's like, well, make up your mind, Bubba.
tim pool
But he realized he was gonna lose.
So he was like a video of him and I'm Don Lemon. He was like it was a noose and he's like it was a pull cord. It
was a straight noose.
adam crigler
I saw a picture of it. It was tiny. Someone sent me screenshots. Yeah before like
tim pool
So a bunch of stories are going viral showing lines pointing things out in the garage.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Someone sent me this like very early on and I saw it and I was like, I don't know enough about it.
So it's like interesting.
And then sure enough, when the story comes out, they use similar images.
And I was like, there it is.
Somebody sent me the tip first, you know, but you know, what am I going to do?
So it turns out it was a pull cord.
And he walked right into that one.
adam crigler
Yep.
And I guess he didn't even see it himself?
tim pool
Is that true?
lydia smith
I think someone else noticed it.
adam crigler
Someone else pointed it out to him?
Like, hey, you see that noose there?
That's for you!
Like, who's that person?
That's what I want to know.
Who said that to him?
Who put that idea in his head?
lydia smith
That's not nice, though.
adam crigler
I don't like that.
tim pool
Someone who is naïve and who is wound up tight, freaking out.
The media's telling you the world's ending, the Nazis are here.
What is it, Vox.com said 4 million people think like neo-Nazis in this country or something like that?
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
It's like, that's insane, man.
adam crigler
They just made these numbers up.
tim pool
3,000 Klan members in the country.
adam crigler
9 showed up to the last rally.
unidentified
3,000?
lydia smith
9 is my favorite number.
adam crigler
9 people?
lydia smith
Yeah, 9 people showed up.
adam crigler
Not 9,000.
Yep, 9.
lydia smith
9.
adam crigler
9.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Sounds like no.
lydia smith
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
This is what I love.
unidentified
People will always be like, Tim, you're so biased, why won't you talk about the far right?
tim pool
And I'm like, what about them?
What about the 3,000 Klan members who don't show up for their own meetings?
adam crigler
That don't do anything.
tim pool
What about Daryl Davis, who's effectively de-radicalized tons of them, who couldn't effectively de-radicalize the Antifa people?
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
What about the Antifa people who show up to every single major political rally and Trump rally and attack people?
adam crigler
Not only did he not able to radicalize, or not de-radicalize them, they called him a white supremacist.
tim pool
Yep.
adam crigler
So it's like, how does that make any sense?
It doesn't make any sense.
tim pool
You have to understand what white supremacy means to them.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
It means liberal democracy.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
It does.
adam crigler
Being a citizen, an upstanding citizen in America.
tim pool
No, no, no.
It's a reference.
adam crigler
Well, that's, yes, but also, go ahead.
tim pool
It's crazy.
I do, yeah.
unidentified
Yes!
tim pool
That's so pretentious.
adam crigler
Little class.
tim pool
White supremacy to them are the institutions of Western countries, period.
adam crigler
Right, okay.
tim pool
So, a court of law is white supremacy.
A library is white supremacy.
I'm not exaggerating.
Everything we need.
They view it as white Europeans invented the concept of time.
Time is white supremacy.
That's crazy.
I'm not kidding.
Remember that woman who said time is white supremacy?
lydia smith
Yes!
That's so pretentious.
adam crigler
She said, yep.
tim pool
Oh my gosh.
Time is white.
She literally, she's a professor, right?
lydia smith
Middle class.
tim pool
I think so, yeah.
And she was like, time is white supremacist.
They think anything white people have done is part of the system of white supremacy.
And so what dumb leftists and Democrat voters don't realize is a very clever tactic on the part of the far left.
So you get your average Democrat voter and they'll say, do you want to march against white supremacy?
And they'll go, oh, of course.
Because they're thinking the Klan and neo-Nazis.
What they're really protesting is roads, water faucets.
Everything we need.
Farmers.
Exactly.
adam crigler
Stores.
tim pool
They that's why that one woman on Twitter said on a Twitter bio destroy civilization
They really do want to live in you know tribes roaming the fields
adam crigler
It's not an exaggeration. Well. I mean it's it's their animal instincts probably taken over instead of their like
Yeah, higher higher mind that we try to hold ourselves above you know animals, but we're all animals
tim pool
They're devolving.
adam crigler
There's some people.
Yeah, I was.
That's.
Yeah, it's kind of a de-evolution.
tim pool
They want to go back to the to the living in trees and bugs and sticks.
lydia smith
I don't think they do.
I think they just haven't thought through what's going to happen.
I think they think they're going to keep all the nice, fun capitalist stuff and the Frappuccinos and iPhones.
They're just going to have a communistic utopia.
I don't know.
adam crigler
Yeah, they think.
Go ahead.
tim pool
If we have communism, then frappuccinos are free.
lydia smith
Yeah, oh, that's true.
tim pool
And then everyone gets a frappuccino.
They don't understand the concept of finite materials and production and labor.
adam crigler
Yeah, I saw a Trump-hating post today from someone that I know, and it was basically about him taking back some environmental stuff in America.
And I was reading the comments, and I know some of these people in there, and I'm like, you realize that all of you have phones, And we get all those phones from other countries that have zero environmental control.
They don't care what happens over there.
And you guys are all, you're complaining about Trump trying to bring, I mean, you realize he's trying to bring the factories here where we will regulate them.
I mean, there's a fine line, but that's the reason why he's doing this.
And they were all like, wow, he didn't think about that.
I'm like, yeah, well, you know where your iPhone came from, right?
On the other side of the planet, where you don't think about.
But here you're complaining about something on your computer, mind you, that was made over there with no environmental control.
It's like, come on.
tim pool
But the cult is very good.
Who's that comic book guy who makes the really, like, five-year-old level intelligence comics?
Where he's like, you have an iPhone but complain about society!
I'm so smart!
You know that comic they always send you?
So they have these straw man rebuttals because they're in a cult, right?
They can't actually formulate their own cohesive response.
The comic is, it's a peasant carrying sticks and he says, we should improve society somewhat.
And then a guy pops out of a well going like this with his fingers and he goes, yet you live in society!
Ha ha!
And he thinks it's a point against when people say to the far-left activists, you want to have all these regulations, yet you have an iPhone.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
Because there's no real response to it, this guy makes up a fake strawman response of, you want to improve society, yet you live in it.
And the point he's making is, just because you have an iPhone doesn't mean that you have no right to demand things are better.
And it's like, that's technically the truth, but that's not the point we're making.
The point we're making is that you're demanding environmental regulations to stop the Pacific plastic gyre and then giving money to people who are making the plastic gyre.
If you want to stop the slave labor and you want to improve human rights, give your money to people who enforce human rights, the ones in America.
adam crigler
Boom.
tim pool
Thank you.
It's so annoying about that comic, where it's like, I'll fix the comic for you.
It's a guy who's not in the society, laughing about how awful the society is, and then the other guy laughing, saying, but you live in it.
And he doesn't.
Listen.
adam crigler
I can't.
tim pool
It makes me mad.
I know.
It makes me mad because it's like watching...
It's like a bunch of clowns.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
These people are clowns.
adam crigler
Yeah, they are.
tim pool
And it's like, when you walk up to them, and they're like, you know, they're eating glass, and then they're going, oh, because their stomachs hurt, and they fall over, and you go, yo, yo, stop eating glass.
And then they all start going, with their noses, and dancing around like this.
adam crigler
No, half of them are doing that.
The other half are like, don't tell us what to do!
tim pool
No, they're clowns.
Half of them are eating glass.
lydia smith
Yeah.
They're doing great over there.
tim pool
And you're like, stop eating glass!
You're dying!
adam crigler
Well, I don't know if you knew this, but clowns are now evil, and are in half of all horror films.
tim pool
Clowns are white supremacists.
lydia smith
Is that right?
tim pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because there's a meme about Clown World.
The Clown World meme.
The far left argues that people who post the emoji of the clown in the world are neo-nazis.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Because some neo-nazis post the clown in the world.
But it's a reference to this idea that everything's gone so insane, certainly we must be in a sitcom written by clowns.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
But other people have pointed out there's this, um, who wrote the story of the clown in the theater in the fire?
Do you know what I'm talking about?
lydia smith
I think so.
tim pool
Can you look it up?
lydia smith
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
There's a famous story, it's like a poem or something or a short story, where a clown- Kierkegaard.
Kierkegaard.
lydia smith
A fire broke out backstage, that one.
tim pool
A fire breaks out backstage, and the clown runs out and starts warning the audience, the fire, the fire, and they all start laughing.
lydia smith
I thought it was a joke.
tim pool
And then he says, no no no no, there's a serious fire, it's gonna kill you all, and they all laugh and laugh.
And then it burns down and they all die.
Something like that.
adam crigler
Wait, is this an actual event that happened?
lydia smith
No, no, no.
adam crigler
It's a story.
lydia smith
So Soren Kierkegaard is a philosopher, and his little quote, it's really short.
I didn't realize how short it was.
It says, A fire broke out backstage in a theater.
The clown came out to warn the public.
They thought it was a joke.
Oh my gosh, go away, you stupid pop-up thing.
And applauded.
He repeated it.
The acclaim was even greater.
I think that's just how the world will come to an end.
To general applause from wits who believe it's a joke.
adam crigler
There we go.
And you know what?
Hold on.
I just want to get this out.
A lot of people are looking at all these people that are ripping down statues and they're like, this is a joke.
lydia smith
These are jokers.
adam crigler
Just like what you were saying the other day.
It's like, this is going to pass over.
These jokers.
tim pool
That's what someone told me today.
Oh, it'll stop, they'll get bored.
No, they won't.
adam crigler
Yep, they're clowns.
tim pool
They've been escalating non-stop.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But it's the clowns that are doing insane things for insane reasons.
And if you try and talk to them, they just smile and go...
And they're like, you're like, you're not responding to me.
You're not answering my question.
When they post that comic of the guy going, yet you live in society.
It's like, you realize you didn't answer what my point was.
That you are literally giving money to the Chinese establishment, which has slave labor committing suicide en masse for cheap products they jack up the price on, which contributes to plastic pollution around the planet.
You don't have to buy the phone.
You can buy American-made phones.
Yet you live in society.
Well, you have to buy an iPhone, bro.
lydia smith
You have to live somewhere.
tim pool
Yeah, but it's like... So, someone once told me, I'm more effective with this computer.
And I said, you can buy a computer from somewhere else.
Like, there's no obligation.
Own a MacBook.
adam crigler
Right.
lydia smith
Seriously.
unidentified
But you live in society.
tim pool
Oh, shut up.
That's a strumming excuse.
So you can buy your luxury goods, drink your Starbucks, and then pretend like you're allowed to do it.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Yeah, and that's part of the saying, right?
The snowflake doesn't blame itself for the avalanche.
It's an excellent saying.
They say, I'm allowed to have an iPhone.
It's other people who aren't.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
I can't stand that hypocrisy.
tim pool
Yeah.
These people are so dumb.
And they get these people who craft these stupid messages to defend their ignorance.
And they post it all the time.
adam crigler
Nonstop.
tim pool
It's really funny how, like, So I tweeted the other day, AOC won.
And then I said something like, perhaps people are not happy, you know, they don't want things to go back the way they were.
Someone responded with like, you kept claiming she was going to lose.
And I said, yes, months and months ago, when stories were coming out suggesting she was going to lose.
It's really that simple.
When a story comes out saying Wall Street was heavily funding Michelle Cruz Cabrera, I was like, whoa, this is a bad sign for AOC.
She could really lose in this case.
if her opponents are raising ridiculous sums of establishment cash.
Then we have the Economist data saying that progressives keep losing, Vox saying progressives
keep losing.
So yes, in those contexts, and then in the past month I said AOC is going to win.
She's probably going to win.
I don't think MCC is going to win.
But what they do is they take really, really old things that are totally out of context
and they craft these memes and then they can all use them as their one-off without paying
attention or actually knowing what they're talking about.
And that's how they defend their insanity.
adam crigler
I read it online, so it must be true.
I saw it.
See, look.
My credited friend sent me this.
So I believe it.
Yep.
tim pool
Clowns.
I noticed a bunch of people posted clown emojis.
lydia smith
I saw that immediately.
tim pool
And the OK hand sign.
adam crigler
All I can picture is the gif of you doing... It's gonna be great.
lydia smith
I'll record that tomorrow.
adam crigler
It's pretty funny.
tim pool
Could you imagine trying to talk to somebody and you're like, I think we have a serious problem with the structure of our tax system.
Now a lot of people are concerned about health care, but first I think we need to reallocate taxes away from foreign interventionary war and regime change.
So we could reallocate those funds.
And they look at you and go...
You're like, are you supporting me?
adam crigler
I don't speak.
And they start going like this.
tim pool
And you're like, what's happening?
I thought we were having a conversation.
And then they start throwing pies at you.
And it's like, how am I supposed to have a conversation right now?
And then they turn around, and there's a voting booth, and they're dancing like this, and they grab the lever and slowly turn their head.
adam crigler
That was creepy, dude.
tim pool
You just creeped me out.
adam crigler
No one else saw that, though.
It was directly at me, and that is some freaky stuff.
tim pool
They're dancing, and their head spins all the way around very slowly and stares at you as they pull the lever for some lunatic.
And then you're like, who are you voting for?
And you look, and you can see the printout, and on the receipt is a clown face.
unidentified
And you're like, Then you wake up from your nightmare.
tim pool
No, you don't.
unidentified
No, you don't.
lydia smith
It just goes on.
adam crigler
Yes, I'm gonna go with that.
tim pool
You're dreaming.
adam crigler
I woke up.
tim pool
Then you walk outside and there's clowns everywhere.
adam crigler
Please wake up.
tim pool
Now, the funny thing about all this is that I think many Trump supporters are just in a luckier position in that they're not on the side of the authoritarian wingnuts who are banning speech.
You can complain about Trump and call him all the worst names in the book.
Trump is doing very little, unfortunately.
He's not banning speech.
He's actually not doing a whole lot to protect speech online.
So it's like, he's doing not a lot.
Neither are the Republicans.
It's the left that is banning things, burning things, tearing down statues.
lydia smith
Actually making stuff happen.
tim pool
That's true, they're winning.
lydia smith
It's not good stuff.
tim pool
But the point is...
These people think they're not the clowns.
They're all dressed like clowns.
And I gotta be honest, a lot of them literally dress like clowns.
Shaved heads, pink spiky hair, and weird things on their face.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
And they're everywhere, and they make no logical sense.
It's just like what I was saying before, it's like when you're making cookies, and you cut out the cookies and you got that weird leftover dough you can't really cook or do anything with.
It's like these people are only fragments of a functioning member of society because there's nothing for them to do anymore because we've progressed too much in technology.
lydia smith
Yeah, I like that analogy.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
So now they're like, I don't know what I'm talking about.
I don't know what to do.
And they can only do half-assed things.
They can't do one functioning job.
They just are a bunch of little tiny things here and there, odd jobs.
And that's the gig economy, to be honest.
People who do menial tasks delivering packages.
And I don't mean in defense to the people actually do these jobs because you know to their credit they're literally doing jobs.
I mean that we have a whole generation of people who have no specialty task anymore.
So they're aimless and they're looking for that hard purpose and they find it in dogma.
Now they've got a whole persona.
Now they've fulfilled themselves.
They're no longer just the Uber driver.
Now they're the activist for social justice.
Revolutionary fighting in the underground fight.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
La resistance!
unidentified
Viva!
tim pool
And they run out and they go and smash windows and they think they've changed the world.
unidentified
That's what they're really doing.
tim pool
Shall we go to the superchats?
lydia smith
Yes, let's do it!
Hello superchats.
tim pool
Hello superchats, if you haven't already.
We will try to get to as many as possible, but we obviously can't read everybody, but we will read what we can.
adam crigler
There's some honking ones in there.
I saw you.
tim pool
Honking ones?
Look at all the clown faces.
lydia smith
I love it.
tim pool
I mean, I think the meme actually reinvigorated the idea of the clown, though, because now clowns make me laugh.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
Ingsoc says, have you ever listened to the Alex Jones Prison Planet?
It's a slam death metal band fronted by none other than Alex Jones.
unidentified
What?
tim pool
Just discovered this today.
Is that true?
lydia smith
Interesting.
tim pool
All right.
Evanesce says, Tim, given the state of the world, would you be open to rediscovering your faith?
If you do, I recommend going to traditional Latin Mass.
The closest to you are Mater Ecclesiae in Berlin, New Jersey, or Cathedral Basilica of St.
Peter's and Paul in Philly?
Well, I would tell you the answer is no.
But the way I usually describe it is that non-theistic religious I have my own unique spiritual perspective.
I believe in God, but I don't believe in... I was explaining this earlier.
Everybody can sort of see through like a keyhole into what the truth really is, but they're only looking through one keyhole at varying perspectives.
adam crigler
And it's their own perspective, also.
tim pool
Right.
So the way I see it is, a lot of these religions, not all of them, but a lot of them, would be like if there was a big, huge mansion, and each and every one of them had a door, and they were peeking through a keyhole.
At one keyhole, you can see the lounge and the bookshelves, and you're like, that's it!
That's what's inside!
And then on the other side of the building, they see a gymnasium.
No, you're wrong!
Inside is this!
So they're getting similar glimpses of things, but it's not...
You know, that's kind of how I view it.
So there's no real faith to rediscover, I guess.
adam crigler
I got this big one here from MazPP98.
He says, Tim, please remind viewers of what you tell people that ask to work for you or with you.
This is probably the best time to get that message out.
Big fan of the podcast.
I messaged via the TimCast contact page.
I will send a follow up shortly to connect with Adam.
What up?
Hit me up, Adam Kregler, on all my stuff.
You can hit me up there.
And then I don't use Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram.
Hat tip to Lydia and the IRL crew as well.
tim pool
So what do we tell people when they're looking for jobs?
adam crigler
I guess so.
tim pool
There are no jobs.
There are no jobs.
There may be soon.
So the first thing we have to do is we have to buy space.
And then it's going to be local jobs.
And we're gonna be probably in the middle of nowhere in an underground bunker 50 feet below the earth.
lydia smith
Correct.
tim pool
And you're gonna need biometrics and like you have to like prick your finger and put blood on the keypad for it to actually open it.
You gotta be wearing a full level 4 PPE.
lydia smith
Need your own gator counter.
Yep.
adam crigler
Yep.
I got another one here from Spectrum Elf.
These are huge superchats.
I noticed.
I was like, I'm going to pull these aside and just read them out.
I wanted to donate $501 just to flex on the other guy.
But alas, $500 is the max.
Admirable.
I work in Hollywood animation and enjoy the idea of funneling money from them to cool people like y'all.
lydia smith
Thank you.
adam crigler
I'm conservative, so the day I have to stand up for myself is the day I'll probably be blacklisted forever.
Thanks so much for what you do.
I watch every day.
Thank you very much.
lydia smith
Thank you.
tim pool
Well, maybe we can, as we expand... We are looking for an animator.
Well, we already have an animator.
adam crigler
Oh, that's true.
tim pool
Yeah.
So, um, but we are looking for, you know, as time goes on, we're gonna be hiring more and more people.
Maybe the solution is, you know what Project Veritas does?
When people stand up, they get to go fund me.
So right now, Veritas has an insider from Facebook who's blowing the whistle, and it's nuts.
adam crigler
I know.
Man, it's nuts.
I mean, we should do a segment on it, honestly.
tim pool
Yeah, Facebook employees straight up being like, we'll ban anybody wearing a MAGA hat.
adam crigler
Let's talk about it tomorrow.
We'll dig into it.
tim pool
Whenever they have one of these whistleblowers, they launch a fundraiser for them.
But this is whenever whenever they have one of these whistleblowers, they launch a fundraiser
lydia smith
for them.
tim pool
That's great.
It's not a guarantee.
You're.
But you know, we need.
I think the real issue is if you lose your job, you just need to find somebody who will
It's really that simple.
lydia smith
And it is possible.
tim pool
But it might not be the job you want.
lydia smith
Right.
tim pool
But that's the challenge.
lydia smith
You might have to bite it.
adam crigler
I don't know if it's not necessary.
I mean, you got to think where we are, though.
COVID.
tim pool
Businesses aren't open.
adam crigler
I'm saying if you live in Los Angeles.
This is like the worst time to lose your job.
tim pool
If you live in Los Angeles and the red states are open.
adam crigler
I have friends in Los Angeles that don't have jobs and they're stressing.
tim pool
South Dakota's open.
How about you take this opportunity?
adam crigler
It's also not cheap to move across country.
Especially if you have a family with kids.
tim pool
The cost of freedom is high.
adam crigler
And if you can't afford it though.
Plenty of people who couldn't afford a $400 swing.
It's true.
Of emergency.
Perhaps.
It's like the cost of freedom is high, but pretty much above everybody's pay grade.
So what?
tim pool
Start selling stuff.
Get in your car.
South Dakota.
unidentified
It's so easy to just say that.
tim pool
Perhaps, but I did it several times in my life.
adam crigler
I sold all my- I'm talking about the average person.
You're not the average person.
tim pool
When I was living in Chicago and I sold all of my possessions, then moved to California with 200 bucks, and I was homeless for a brief period.
adam crigler
But again, you didn't have kids.
You were just by yourself.
tim pool
Right.
adam crigler
You weren't married.
tim pool
I'm saying it's possible.
adam crigler
Completely different situation.
tim pool
It's possible.
Especially when you have two income earners.
adam crigler
Yeah.
So I got another Rigel J here.
Another $500.
These are huge.
You guys are amazing.
But I see him.
I'm going to call him out here.
tim pool
Why is everybody giving us $500?
adam crigler
Don't ask these questions.
Just say thank you.
tim pool
Why aren't more people giving us $500?
adam crigler
All right, Rigel J says, the very highest leaders at my workplace talk about the need for the courage to stand up against racism and the need to have difficult nuanced conversations.
Then they huddle in their bubbles, stroke their egos and assuage their white guilt by confirming each other's biases.
Tim, you lit a fire in me and I'm going to be a figurative needle in their bubble.
Yes.
lydia smith
Oh boy.
adam crigler
That's what we need.
We need, we need, we, I mean, it just has to happen.
It's like, people got to speak up.
It's like, you are hypocrites.
You can't claim that you want to be, you know, against racism and then go into your little bubble and, and talk, be racist, in closet racist.
tim pool
There's a word for that.
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
When you and a group of people form a circle.
lydia smith
And hug each other.
tim pool
And hug each other.
lydia smith
Yes, it's very nice.
tim pool
And pat each other on the back.
lydia smith
That's right.
adam crigler
I'm not going to say it.
That's what you're doing.
We're a family friendly show here.
I said it once before.
A circle of jerks.
tim pool
A circle of mean people.
adam crigler
A circle of jerks.
Well, seriously, thanks for the huge super chat, guys.
Good luck, dude.
Really appreciate it.
tim pool
You got any more?
adam crigler
I haven't seen any more.
Those are the three that I saw that I was like, whoa, I got it.
And they disappear because I don't have that.
I have just what everyone else is seeing.
tim pool
Grant Thompson says, I lived in Scotland and respect of Robert the Bruce is evident.
I've met people that saw him as a turncoat.
There was no recourse for the death of Sir William Wallace.
Robert was seen as a traitor.
Does Robert E. Lee deserve the same when he also fought for his people?
Robert, Robert, I don't know.
I don't know enough about Robert the Bruce.
He's in the guy from like the 1200s.
adam crigler
Isn't that Braveheart?
Isn't that what Braveheart's about?
tim pool
They vandalized his statue and called him a racist.
adam crigler
He eventually gets publicly ripped apart.
But I mean, Robert E. Lee fought honorably for his people, right?
That's what they're saying.
It's like, does he deserve a movie?
I mean, they're running out of ideas, so it's going to happen eventually, I'm sure.
tim pool
I don't like the idea of Confederates getting honored.
I understand the idea of defending your states and all that stuff, but the way I view it is, you can look back at historical figures and make them all look like really, really bad people.
The question I have is, were they creating a better world?
That's true.
And through their work, slavery was abolished.
That's true.
They wanted to keep their slaves.
slave owner, but he was laying the groundwork for a better world.
adam crigler
And through their work, slavery was abolished.
But the Confederates weren't.
tim pool
That's true.
The Confederates were resisting.
adam crigler
Yeah, they wanted to keep their slaves.
Because they'd...
And you lost Confederates.
tim pool
And there are a lot of arguments about states' rights.
There are a lot of arguments about the crippling of their economy and things like that.
But at a certain point, you are not creating a better world.
You are fighting to keep the bad flowing.
So there are a lot of world leaders who are really, really awful.
adam crigler
Those Democrats.
tim pool
Stalin.
Was Stalin making the world a better place?
Absolutely not.
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
This is not someone in Lenin.
No.
No.
The Founding Fathers did.
All the freedom these SJWs have to go around protesting and screeching at the top of their lungs was granted to them.
They should be respectful for it.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
Now, you could argue Thomas Jefferson didn't create a better world because he created a world in which the SJW could grow and become tainted and destroy everything.
But I'm kidding, by the way.
adam crigler
I think it was going to happen no matter what, because the technological era that we live in makes people comfortable.
I think.
We want to be comfortable.
We are the kings of this planet.
We've declared the planet is ours.
Now we're looking at Mars like, yep, that's going to be ours too soon.
It's like, well, we're comfortable.
People like it.
They're used to it.
tim pool
I'm just trying to figure out, you know, what qualifies someone for being a historical figure we build a statue for and one we don't.
And I can certainly respect the willingness to fight and die for your people, but not insofar as people who would create an awful future like the Soviets would.
Sorry.
lydia smith
So as far as Robert the Bruce goes, though, he was actually actively leading Scottish people toward freedom.
He was one of the first.
tim pool
They called him a racist, right?
lydia smith
Um, he was born in like 1200.
tim pool
They called him a racist.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
And Count Dankula said, I'm pretty sure he didn't even know black people existed.
lydia smith
Yeah.
He might not have.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Well, this is for, uh, this is for everyone out there that wants to super chat, but can't.
And, and most especially for the people who have super chatted and we can't get to your super chat.
I'm spinning the UFO for you.
That's right.
unidentified
Yes.
There it goes.
adam crigler
Lydia, you're getting way too excited right now.
unidentified
The UFO is being spun.
adam crigler
And I'm not upset about it.
tim pool
We got a super chat here from Dalton Lucas.
He said, Bubba never saw the noose.
His crew found it and told him about it.
If I was in Bubba's shoes and someone told me that, I'd be scared, too.
That's a really good point.
adam crigler
He never saw it.
So he didn't even know what it looked like.
tim pool
Yeah.
lydia smith
No wonder he was embarrassed.
Interesting.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
Let's see.
Oh, yeah.
We definitely got that big one.
Big ol' super chats.
Let's see.
Where are we at?
adam crigler
Well, I don't know, actually.
tim pool
Yeah, we did.
adam crigler
You read it?
You saw it?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Sean Lewis says, Tim and Co., I've become a huge fan and love your views, even if I don't always agree.
My question is, when doing research on topics, which is the best way to form factual opinions or who to trust due to so many biased medias?
I honestly can't give you a good answer, to be fair.
adam crigler
I can't.
I agree.
That's basically what I do all day.
I'm just reading articles, cross-referencing, seeing what people are posting.
Honestly, I feel like posting something and going, is this true?
And because I have a really solid following now, a lot of people are hitting me up like, this isn't true, this is true, and I see both.
People are arguing, people argue that it's true, it's not true, that the AOC tweet from a while ago, yeah, it's like, it's not, it was a wild tweet, you know, it's like, there's no way she tweeted this, but a lot of people out there are like, I saw it, I saw it on her page, and then she deleted it, and it's like, I don't know, but that does help a lot.
I actually really appreciate you guys that are hitting me up with those.
tim pool
That's tough.
I read left-wing and right-wing sources.
lydia smith
I use AllSides.com.
tim pool
I use AllSides.com.
It's fantastic.
I use NewsGuard, which is not perfect, but it's pretty good.
There are some issues with it, for sure.
They do have their biases.
And then I'll go to SJW subreddits and right culture war subreddits, whatever you want to call it, Libertarian.
And I'll go to r slash politics, where you'll see all of the hate for Trump.
And then you can go to the Donald dot win, which is the Donald Trump supporters' unique clone of Reddit because they were getting censored on Reddit.
So I just try and read everyone's take on things.
And then typically, you can discern the truth if you read, like, five articles on the same thing.
It's not perfect, though.
lydia smith
I got a whole thread on this on my Twitter right now.
About how to find a good source and some of my favorite sources.
adam crigler
And you can follow her right there.
Sour Patch Lids!
tim pool
Speaking of following you, you can follow me on Twitter and Instagram at Timcast.
adam crigler
And you can follow me at AdamKrigler at Parler.
Parley?
tim pool
Oh yeah, Parley.
adam crigler
Don't you Parley on Parler?
lydia smith
Parleray?
tim pool
It's Parley.
adam crigler
Oh, it's spelled Parler, but... Yeah, Parler is how you spell it in French.
But I kind of like that you go to parlor to parlay with people.
tim pool
But parlor is spelled differently.
adam crigler
Yeah, well, I'm going to do what I do.
So you can follow me there.
You can follow me on Twitter.
You can follow me on YouTube, Instagram.
It's just at Adam Krigler on all the things.
So hit me up.
tim pool
Actually, that's a really good point.
If you're not on parlay, it's P-A-R-L-E-R.
Sign up and you can follow all.
Are you on parlay?
lydia smith
I am.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Sour Patch Lids?
lydia smith
Yep.
I think I was on before you made yours public.
adam crigler
Oh, it's always a competition for you, isn't it?
lydia smith
Yes, it is.
And I'm winning.
tim pool
No, I'm just kidding.
Have fun.
adam crigler
You're the only one playing.
tim pool
We got a super chat here, guys.
adam crigler
Sorry, go.
unidentified
I.R.
tim pool
Long says, Hey guys, thanks for being great.
I've lost a lot of respect for so many people in our country.
Many of the people I've told about the destruction of American history have straight up said they don't care.
But not you guys.
Here's to the last patriots.
I care because I've been to other countries.
adam crigler
Exactly.
I know what it's like.
I've seen it.
It's insane.
tim pool
In Germany.
At the G20.
Luke Rydkowski, friend of mine, was walking down the street and someone saw him and pointed and yelled, Nazi Schweinhund.
Nazi pig.
And this other guy who was with him was just some random young journalist from Germany.
And so they ran up and started punching him, and then other people saw, and then ran up and started punching him as well as they yelled Nazi Schweinhund.
Because no one knew who they were, but say it once and it's all it takes.
When I was walking, leaving the protest area, there were people tweeting.
I was with Lauren Southern, and it's a long story I'm not going to get into, but there were threats made against her, so I was like, I'm going to walk with her back to make sure nobody tries to kill her.
Not that I agree with her politics, but I don't want anyone to die.
And so we walked back, and as we were walking back, people were spying on us.
Yeah.
We'd see them like we'd be walking and people would just turn and look and then all sudden on Twitter Antifa would
be alike We spotted them. They're here. Yeah, it's crazy stuff, man
You don't look these these other countries are freaky and creepy and I gotta say man. I think Sweden is freaky and
creepy I know you like Sweden. I don't know but I but I it is a
adam crigler
little creepy sometimes like I can see the aspects of it.
unidentified
It's very homogenous.
tim pool
It's very like everybody's in line and like marching in lockstep.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, we can't compare.
It's a tiny little country.
Not even 10 million people.
Or maybe 10 million people.
unidentified
Almost.
tim pool
Yeah, 10 million.
adam crigler
But that's it.
10 million.
tim pool
We have 350,000.
adam crigler
That's comfortable.
350 million.
You know, it's insane.
tim pool
It's a very comfortable country.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But go to Brazil.
adam crigler
It is comfortable.
tim pool
Go to Brazil.
Go to Mexico.
Go to Egypt.
Go to Morocco.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Then come back here and complain.
You won't be able to, surprisingly.
If you have experience in all these other places, you're going to be like, you know what?
What is this?
Svine says, Soy Hulk smash.
unidentified
Smash!
Smash it!
adam crigler
Smash that like button!
Well, a lot of people liked the smash button.
A lot of people liked the smash button.
I love that.
That was a 40 inch whip, but I regret nothing.
Like that smash button!
tim pool
Spin it!
Bop it overdressed says guys. I am NOT here for the cat I am here for you guys because you are awesome, but 71% of
my super chats are cat related 24-hour cat cam just an idea we talked I talked about this
over and over again about What can we do to like get like a room and just fill with
guinea pigs and then put live stream cameras up?
Just all I see is a lot of poop. Well. Yeah, of course you got to clean the guinea pig room
unidentified
system.
tim pool
So when we lived in Miami, we had a rabbit room.
adam crigler
Yeah, two.
tim pool
We had two rabbits in a whole room.
adam crigler
And they eat their own poop, so we're good.
tim pool
But that's different, it's not necessarily poop, but they do.
A lot of people don't know this, that rabbits, because they're like, they're herbivores, they poop out, it's not really poop, it's from somewhere, it's like next to their butthole.
adam crigler
Yeah, they got two.
tim pool
And they turn around and eat it.
adam crigler
Yum!
tim pool
That's rabbits.
unidentified
Good conversation.
tim pool
People don't realize that rabbits are not good pets.
adam crigler
Nature with TeamCast IRL.
tim pool
Don't get a rabbit.
Don't buy your kids rabbits.
They are not good pets.
They are cute, but they are very, very delicate and hard to take care of.
Dogs.
adam crigler
This is getting itchy, man.
I think I gotta get rid of it.
tim pool
Just straight razor.
Straight razor.
adam crigler
Oh, yeah.
See, when it gets annoying, I get rid of it.
When my hair gets too long, I chop it down.
That's my maintenance.
A lot of people have asked, what does he do with his hair?
Are you saying you're going to chop it off?
No, one person asked.
No, no, no.
When I get up in the morning and I can't get up because my hair is underneath my shoulder, that's annoying.
lydia smith
When it immobilizes you, then you think about cutting it?
unidentified
Yes.
adam crigler
Or if it's covered, I'm like the man with the iron mask.
Oh, I love it.
When he takes it off and there's just hair stuck to me, that's annoying.
tim pool
Alright, we got LikeFryLikeFry who said, Hey, what up?
Tim, when you mention how paramedics wouldn't go in a situation without cops, remember paramedics carry morphine and all sorts of drugs that would sell for a lot on the streets.
Adam for president, spin that UFO and get those little guys dizzy.
adam crigler
Yo, I'ma spin it for you, buddy.
LikeFryLikeFry has got a really good beanie idea I have not forgotten.
lydia smith
Oh, cool.
tim pool
Jean McCloud says, Tim, what tea do you drink to soothe your throat?
Have you tried fresh ginger, honey, and lemon?
I love to drink that to help my throat when I am sick.
I don't drink tea.
lydia smith
No?
tim pool
No.
adam crigler
You're literally drinking tea right now.
tim pool
I had like two sips of it and it's full right here.
adam crigler
So you drank a little bit.
So I have been making one sip.
That's drinking.
Drinking tea.
tim pool
I don't drink any teas.
adam crigler
It's official.
He lied to you.
That's tea right there.
tim pool
If someone wants to ask me what teas do I drink, I would tell you I don't drink tea, but someone just handed me a glass and I had two sips.
adam crigler
And you were like, harumph, I say!
tim pool
I was like, it's hot.
adam crigler
No, you pretty much harumphed.
tim pool
For soothing my throat.
What are those fruit bars called?
lydia smith
So those are the shine bars.
tim pool
Shine bars?
lydia smith
They're the green box.
tim pool
There's these little, there's like, it's like pureed fruit ice cream bars.
It's just fruit.
adam crigler
Good stuff.
tim pool
Those things soothe the throat.
adam crigler
Those are good.
tim pool
Yeah.
It's all fruit.
We got mango and strawberry.
It's amazing.
adam crigler
Yeah, man, you, you started getting heated and I was like off camera.
You couldn't see me, but he was like talking to you guys and I'm like, Outshine.
tim pool
Outshine?
unidentified
It's like, whoa, woosah!
Woosah!
adam crigler
I was mentally going woosah to him.
lydia smith
Yeah, so the cold helps his throat more than the hot, which is kind of weird, but whatever works.
tim pool
Sean Shriver says Libertarian Joe Jorgensen for President 2020.
Will you have her on the cast?
She owns 2020.com, is that right?
adam crigler
Do you think she would want to come on our show?
tim pool
I'm sure a lot of people would.
We have all of the viewers.
lydia smith
Yes, all of us viewers, frankly.
tim pool
Well, listen, I'd love to have a ton of people, but we're in COVID purgatory.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's true.
tim pool
I don't want to call it a quarantine right now because you can go sit in a tent in a parking lot and eat food.
lydia smith
Yeah, which is weird.
tim pool
The restaurants all have tents in their parking lots and now you can go and... It's better than nothing, yeah.
That's why I'm like, can we just move to a red state, man?
You know, the crazy thing about it is, I couldn't have imagined myself saying that five years ago.
Like, why would I do that?
That's crazy.
I don't live in the city.
adam crigler
Move to a red state?
tim pool
Yeah.
Now they're quarantining everybody, and they're screeching about, like, COVID apocalypse, and I'm like, elective surgeries are back.
Hospitals aren't overloaded.
What are you talking about?
The mortality rate is .25.
We're in flu range.
Nobody's caring anymore, except for the weird journalists who are like, everything's getting worse, and it's like, they're opening.
We went out and got cheeseburgers the other day.
adam crigler
And now in Oregon, they're like, all white people must continue to wear their masks.
But if you're a minority, then you don't have to.
tim pool
It's one specific county.
adam crigler
Oh, that's it?
tim pool
Just one county?
adam crigler
I don't care.
They're making these rules.
tim pool
What do you think the result of that is going to be?
adam crigler
More racists.
tim pool
A lot of dead brown people.
adam crigler
Racism.
They're shoving it down everyone's throat.
tim pool
The result will be more dead brown people.
Telling the white people you must... It's like, could you imagine if there were only white people left to wear seatbelts?
lydia smith
Only they should be safe, right?
tim pool
Yes.
adam crigler
That's such nonsense.
unidentified
Right.
lydia smith
Did you not see what they're doing?
adam crigler
That's what I don't understand.
It's like this weird inverse.
It's like they're trying to claim white people need to... COVID's real.
White people, you must wear your mask.
unidentified
You gotta stay safe.
adam crigler
Because we care about you more.
Yeah, that's so weird.
Is that the message you're trying to send?
lydia smith
Yes.
adam crigler
That's ridiculous.
I know, that's not right.
Either you want everyone to live and wear masks and be safe, or it's fake.
Make up your mind.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
Well, I guess what they're saying is that brown people are immune.
adam crigler
That's insane.
lydia smith
They're actually more at risk.
adam crigler
What are they saying?
In the early stages, they were telling us minorities are at much higher risk for this.
Well, if that's the truth, why aren't you blasting out there?
If you're going to go protest, make sure you wear a mask.
They're not blasting it out there.
tim pool
I do see that.
Protesters.
It wasn't that.
That wasn't it.
Nope.
It wasn't that.
adam crigler
I do see that. Protesters.
tim pool
Right. And now there... so there was a brief period where I think the LA Times said,
like they had a quote from someone saying the protests caused a spike,
and now all of the press rushed full speed to say, no, no, no, no.
lydia smith
It wasn't that. That wasn't it. Nope.
adam crigler
It wasn't that. I did see that.
tim pool
No, because they're outdoors. It's fine.
lydia smith
Yeah, it's perfectly fine.
tim pool
We got a super chat here.
Ryan Dixon says, Hey Tim, Adam, Lydia, love your guys' work.
I live in the South Jersey area too and work in a trade union.
I'm seeing Trump's support grow and grow in the union.
It may be quiet, but it's there.
I don't buy the polls that say he's losing support.
adam crigler
Yeah, he's gaining support.
tim pool
I don't think it matters.
I think you should operate under the assumption he's losing support.
He's gaining real support.
adam crigler
He's gaining loyal support.
There's a big difference between, I'm just gonna vote this person this year, I'm gonna go vote this person.
tim pool
That's what I'm seeing.
What I'm saying is, if you make the assumption Trump is winning, you will lose.
You need to fight for your life.
And the same is true for Democrats, too.
The message is clear when it comes to this election.
Whatever you think is happening, if you think you're going to win, you better fight like your life depends on it.
How many people, I'll tell you what, they're not going to go out and vote, and they're going to go, oh, but I thought we were going to win.
That's it.
How many people thought AOC would surely lose?
There's no way she could win.
Her first election was a fluke and then boom.
adam crigler
I didn't think that.
I thought if she was going up against a Republican it might be a little different.
tim pool
We'll see what happens in November.
adam crigler
She's in a blue state, in a blue area.
But all we see, like even if I didn't know you, right, and I was just watching the news and just seeing what was going on, I would equate a lot of that was going on to the Democrats making these decisions, letting this run rampant in their cities.
tim pool
I think what's interesting is, when people talk about redpilling, I brought this up early on when they were like, you know, because in 2014 they were saying, Tim Poole's a slow redpill, and I'm like, you gotta understand, it's just not corrupting my circles, okay?
When you're complaining about video games and comic books, I don't read comic books.
I rarely play these video games you're talking about.
But then once they got into Magic the Gathering, then I was like, whoa!
Right?
So they say, look, now Tim's getting redpilled.
No.
It's because the infection is spreading.
And so there are a lot of people who don't see it.
And then all of a sudden they get smacked in the face by it.
So a good example for you, we were talking about this the other day, I'm like, it's funny because You were saying before that you weren't aware of what was going on until you came out here, or something to that effect.
adam crigler
Not as much.
Well, I didn't pay attention, would be more accurate.
tim pool
And what would have happened?
adam crigler
I was living in my comfortable bubble, because society, that's what we have.
tim pool
So what would have happened if you didn't come out here, you're in your bubble, and all of a sudden you got word that orcs and drow were being retconned and that magic was banning a bunch of cards?
You'd be like, wait, what?
You'd be forced into it, is what I'm saying.
You didn't have a choice.
Whether you came out here or not, they were coming for you, and the infection spread into your world heavily, and you would've been sitting there being like, they just banned all these cars, what's going on?
adam crigler
Yeah, now they're coming for Jesus?
Yep.
Now they're coming after religion?
How far is this gonna go?
tim pool
Wait till the activists start targeting, and I mean beyond the normal, Blue Lives Matter flags.
Like when they start showing up and tearing them down and burning them and throwing bricks through windows.
adam crigler
I mean, how is that any worse than the American flag?
It's like the ultimate flag in our country.
tim pool
Well, because they're not going to random people's homes.
adam crigler
Yes, they are.
tim pool
And tearing down American flags.
adam crigler
Yes.
But it's not like... I'm seeing it.
tim pool
Right, I understand.
But I'm saying, like, the people who have Blue Lives Matter flags up are active.
Not everybody with an American flag is politically active.
They might just be like, who tore down my flag?
The people waving Blue Lives Matter flags have done it specifically as a response to Black Lives Matter.
So when they get targeted now, they're going to force these people out of their homes and actually into the fight.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
So right now, like I mentioned, there's a lot of people saying, oh, well, I'll vote and it'll be OK.
What happens when the left says we're not going to leave you alone and then bring it to the homes of the other politically active faction?
I'm not saying it will happen.
adam crigler
I just I hear a shotgun going in my head whenever whenever that question arises.
tim pool
Alright, we got a big ol' super chat here.
Big fan of your words.
Words people need to hear.
If possible, please.
Gonna get you guys to watch and discuss the video KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov's warning to America.
13 minutes 37 seconds.
I think it is extremely important right now in our history.
Thank you.
adam crigler
The full video is actually about 20 minutes long.
tim pool
I think it's way longer.
It's a full interview he does about his life and stuff.
adam crigler
But there's a specific about, um, when he defects.
I just watched this the other day.
Um, and it's, it's about him defecting.
See, it's talking about what was happening over in India and, uh, you know, the USSR at the time and the parallels.
And have you seen it yet?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
adam crigler
Yeah.
I mean, we could totally do a segment on it because the parallels are crazy.
tim pool
Let's do it.
adam crigler
You know, it's mental warfare, essentially.
It's a new age.
tim pool
And some people have brought up that the seeds were planted by the Soviet Union who have long since died.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And now they've grown into fruit bearing trees of insanity.
adam crigler
Yeah, but the thing is about that is I don't think they predicted or thought about social media.
And in a sense, it made the fire burn too bright.
You know what I mean?
So they're burning themselves out almost because there's so much of us.
It's so apparent.
We're having conversations like this.
A lot of people out there are watching his video.
His video is being spread from 1984.
You know, it's an old video, but people are watching it.
They're like, look at the parallels.
Look what's going on.
We're talking.
tim pool
That's the resistance.
adam crigler
We're spreading it around, the information.
tim pool
They were hoping that these woke lunatics would infect broadcast media and then own the airwaves.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
But social media has allowed us a counter voice, and that's what they're trying to censor everybody.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
Because they're like, this wasn't supposed to be the way it was.
So, I have bad news.
It is 10 o'clock.
unidentified
But!
adam crigler
Tim needs his voice, everybody.
