Now, enjoy the show.

We got this video from Libs of TikTok.
A parent in Adams 12 school, so this is Colorado's sixth largest school district, attempts to read from the book Genderqueer and gets silenced by board members.
The graphic book containing pornography can't be read in front of adults, yet is available for kids to read in schools across the country.
Let's play this.
unidentified
Is there a way to raise the volume on this?
allowed for our children to have access to.
These two books that are on the poster are Lawn Boy and Genderqueer.
I will say that I do not favor book banning.
I want to tell you that off the bat.
But I do want to tell you that pornography does not belong in our schools or accessible to our children via online resources that Adams 12 has made possible.
I'm going to say a couple things here.
So genderqueer, let's go here.
Alison Bechdel writes Fun Home about discovering masturbation soon after her first period.
I discovered it around the same age, followed by the further realization that my ability to become aroused was governed by a strict law of diminishing returns, an elaborate fantasy based on Plato's Symposium.
The more I had to interact with my genitals, the less likely I was to reach a point of satisfaction.
The best fantasy was one that did not require any physical touch at all.
I got a new strap-on harness today.
I can't wait to put it on you.
It will fit my favorite dildo perfectly.
I can't wait to have your cock in my mouth.
I'm going to give you the blowjob of your life.
Then I want you inside me.
Sorry, you're out of order.
This is your first warning.
This is a book that is accessible in Adams 12.
Kindly refrain from further reading here, please.
Thank you.
Let me finish reading this.
There is no more vulgarity, but this is what you allow in our schools.
And this is what you allow for our kids to have access to.
tim pool
Honk!
Motherfucking ass honk!
unidentified
Yeah, read it to the children, not to the adults.
tim pool
Exactly.
unidentified
The Biden admin thinks that's a domestic terrorist.
tim pool
That's right.
unidentified
Holy fuck.
tim pool
That's the genderqueer book.
She read from it and the Board of Education yelled at her over it.
This is your first warning.
And then you hear everybody yell, like, that's the book you're allowing kids to read!
The book the Washington Post said kids need.
The book the New York Times tried to cover up for and say, oh, they're banning books!
ian crossland
This is the one called Genderqueer?
unidentified
Yeah.
ian crossland
I think this video is self-evident, man.
It spoke, it said everything.
I don't even think I can tack on to how stu- Not only is that a vi- This is a free speech at the Board of Education.
Do they have any, any responsibility to upload free speech and allow this woman to talk?
tim pool
Or was it just mean wor- the words were said and the girl got triggered and- In these public settings and stuff, they can ask you, like, hey, don't say vulgarities and stuff like that.
ian crossland
I'm going to put on my D word that ends in O and put it in your M, double O-U-T-H.
Like, what the fuck you want the girl to say?
It's in a book that kids saw.
unidentified
It's in a book that they're allowing for kids.
I mean, that's right.
The fact that their response was not to immediately say, this is insane, what a horrific oversight, of course we're not going to show this to children anymore, is insane.
No, shut up.
Don't say that.
Don't point that out.
Don't let people know what children are being subjected to.
It's grooming.
This is also what's fucked up here, too, is— Here are the images.
The only reason that— They censored it, but— The local journalists would never cover this Board of Ed meeting.
It's libs of TikTok, which the Washington Post and Taylor Lorenz spent more time trying to dox the account owner than actually follow any of the points that she's making in her reporting, right?
The only reason we know about Adams 12 in Colorado is because libs of TikTok posted the video.
Not because the Denver Post decided to report on this board of ed meeting, which would normally be an actual story.
tim pool
They would ignore it.
unidentified
Exactly.
tim pool
So, the Washington Post runs this story like, kids, queer kids need these stories.
They need stories where you're talking about, like, graphic adult activities?
See, I made a post.
I wrote on Twitter, a child in school today is more likely to learn how to tuck or bind than they are to learn how to start a business.
Which is like a truism, like, schools don't do S-incorporation class for grade school kids, but they are, in some instances, doing shit like this.
And so I had people say like, yeah, well, I wish I had representation in school, and I'm like, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude.
Representation does not need to include descriptions of penetration.
ian crossland
Yeah, uh, Saki was like bringing on the girl that's gonna follow up with the new Speaker of the House.
It was, you know, this girl, black girl.
I don't even call it the race.
I hate using the word black.
But she was like, and because of her skin color, she will represent so many more people.
And I'm like, dude, when you're representing, you're not just trying to make it look like the person.
You need to make content that represents the integrity of the human character.
Blowjobs and fucking dildos is not it for eight year olds.
tim pool
Let's hold on a second.
In what context would a school allow reading material rated as 18 and up to be available for children?
What if 50 Shades of Grey?
No.
That's 18 Up, right?
ian crossland
I never read it, but I hear it's sexual.
tim pool
Genderqueer on Amazon is 18 years and up.
I don't care about the book.
Let's just stop right there.
In any context, for any reason, why would a school give an 18 year and up book to kids under 18?
ian crossland
What it makes me think happened is that Amazon put the 18 and up thing on after the fact, but I don't know.
I don't know.
unidentified
I'm sure Amazon doesn't care about libs of TikTok.
tim pool
Yeah.
ian crossland
Like Amazon's like, we're not getting involved.
unidentified
But this is stuff that I've reported on as a journalist, which is there's a school district in rural Indiana on the outskirts of Indianapolis where kids, fourth graders, had a Zoom session with a nurse who's talking to them about anal penetration.
And it's like, school is a zero-sum game, right?
Every minute you're spending talking about dildos is a minute you're not spending talking about doing actual Reading, learning how to compete with China on a global scale.
So every minute that we're learning CRT, fake history, weird gender education indoctrination, is a minute that kids are not learning about how to do things that will lead them to start a business, learn how to do math, or compete on a global scale.
Well, also, every minute spent talking about dildos is a moment passing disgusting, perverse sexual ideologies down onto children.
It's even worse.
It's not just wasted time, right?
tim pool
It's grooming.
unidentified
You're correct.
tim pool
They're grooming.
They're literally grooming kids.
When we had Helena on, she was the de-transitioner.
She was explaining how she would go on Tumblr.
And they would say things like, you know, maybe you're trans and you don't know it.
Try cutting your hair short.
See how you feel.
And then she'd cut her hair short, go back on Tumblr and they would say, you're so amazing.
Oh, we love you.
You're so beautiful.
You look so good.
Oh, you're so handsome.
And then she'd feel really, really good.
But why don't you do more?
Why don't you try more and see how you feel?
That's grooming.
ian crossland
I keep thinking about the average age that kids see porn, and we just saw an article a couple weeks ago that it's 11 years old is the first time that average kids are exposed to porn.
unidentified

Bye.
ian crossland
With that, knowing that, maybe there is some value to educating kids about fucking anal
sex when they're 11.
Because they're gonna see it and they need to know what the hell's going on.
But I don't think it's the school's job.
That's the parent's job.
tim pool
Or kids should not be exposed to those things.
ian crossland
How do you stop the waterfall?
I don't know.
tim pool
Good parents.
unidentified
Maybe.
tim pool
The big tech parents don't let their kids have cell phones or access to the internet.
ian crossland
And they probably don't send them to public school either.
tim pool
Yeah, they go to very special, fancy private schools.
They're creating two tiers of humans.
Those who are getting the elite proper education and exposure, who will grow up to be, you know, well-tempered and well-measured.
And then the... It's like a... You ever see The Time Machine?
He goes to the future and there's a super smart dude and like the... Orc-ish people.
You know what I'm talking about?
ian crossland
I watched half the first half.
unidentified
Wait, are you guys talking about the remake or the original?
ian crossland
I saw the original.
tim pool
Whatever, he goes to the future.
In the future, humans have split into two different species.
One super smart and one super dumb.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Basically what they're doing is, for kids in public schools, your lives will be destroyed.
I gotta tell you, it sounds like eugenics to me.
The people who are rich send their kids to fancy private schools where they're not exposed to this stuff, and the kids who are poor are being told to, like, are being given pornography, are being told to sterilize their children, the parents are.
unidentified
Although a lot of these rich, elite private schools are actually some of the wokest in the country as well, and they are some of the most brainwashing-est in the country.
tim pool
Oh, I mean like the ultra-woke.
I mean, I'm sorry, I mean like the ultra-wealthy, the big techs, like CEOs and executives, they don't give their kids cell phones.
ian crossland
I'll just say to that, you know, I'm fairly optimistic then.
unidentified
I'm fairly optimistic about the future.
actual, you know, like St. Albans in DC is completely caving to woke stuff.
And that's, you know, one of the breeding grounds of, you know, America's late Harvard,
Westlake and L.A. Same thing.
I mean, you know, look at the Ivy League colleges also.
I mean, these are some of the worst breeding grounds of wokeism.
So it really is pernicious.
tim pool
I just I'll just say to that, you know, I'm fairly optimistic that fairly optimistic about
the future.
I mean, these people are going to be nonfunctioning.
I'm not kidding.
Millennials are almost already non-functioning people.
Now they can vote for whatever they want, maybe the system collapses, but I also don't fear people who are non-functioning.
They're all gonna vote and be like, we should vote to take everything from you!
And I'll be like, good luck.
Like, I know how to make things happen.
I know how to build a machine.
I can put a doorknob together.
These people can't put doorknobs together.
They're just confused.
They've never done a hard day's work in their lives.
They got degrees in gender studies.
ian crossland
It's sad and I want to help them.
I don't know.
I toggle between, like, just giving up and being like, we're splitting into different species.
That's the inevitability of it.
There's gonna be, like, homo cyborg-ius or whatever the fuck people go into the metaverse.
There's gonna be people that are, like, naturalists that keep growing crops and have, like, and or we can help these people and we can re-wake them up to reality.
unidentified
WALL-E is really interesting to watch in sort of the hindsight of after they did the metaverse with Facebook, and just sort of seeing that movie as an adult is like a weird sort of trip to see the people living in this metaverse and just being monstrous fat slobs, right?
tim pool
Well, that wasn't a metaverse, though.
They were just floating in reclining chairs with sugary drinks.
They'd all be dead, though.
They're like their hearts would stop working.
I like how it shows their bones have shriveled.
Like they don't have bones anymore.
They were just like jelly orbs.
Well, you're in outer space.
You don't need bones anymore.
You don't grow bones.
ian crossland
You think we're headed towards a catacast system?
unidentified
Do I think?
tim pool
Well... I'd say yes.
Non-functioning millennials are going... So here's what could happen.
Most of these millennials who went to schools and got bullshit-ass degrees and can't find work, they live in a world where they don't know how to get food.
So it's fascinating how you could tell them, food comes from the ground.
And they'll go, well, duh.
Why don't you try growing some?
And they'll be like, I don't know how to do that.
What are you talking about?
unidentified
They also don't live near grass, right?
They all live in just up.
tim pool
How will they eat?
I've often wondered why it is that among my friends who are like urban liberal types growing up, they thought the only way to get money was to get a job.
That was always weird to me.
They would be like, I need money, I gotta find a job.
And I'm like, why don't you make money?
I don't understand.
Like, making money is quite literally going to someone who's holding a green piece of paper and asking them if you can hold the green piece of paper.
That's it.
Now, there are rules about how you can convince them to do it.
You can't scare them into giving you the money.
But if they agree to hand it to you, you're done.
ian crossland
You hear that, Joe Biden?
Can't scare people into giving you money for the Ukraine crap.
tim pool
So I have these leftists who don't understand the idea of being an entrepreneur and making money from other people.
So they're like, I'm gonna get a job from somebody.
They're indentured servants.
They won't start their own businesses.
They don't know how.
David Hogg recently tried and was freaking out like, why can't I start an S Corp or whatever he wanted to do.
ian crossland
The last hundred years has primed people for this caste system to like just be subservient workers.
tim pool
Nah, hold on.
They can vote though.
And so they can vote to blow the system up.
That I recognize.
That kind of sucks.
At the same time, if the system blows up, I'm still confident I'll be fine.
And these non-functioning people will just start dying in the streets.
I don't think it's going to be like literally every single person in a city will be going like that and dying.
But a large portion of New York residents have no idea where food comes from.
They'll go to the... You know what's funny?
Let's say the apocalypse happens.
Like there's like a great sundering and the earth shakes and then all the power goes out.
The first thing these city people are going to do is run to grocery stores.
and fight with each other over food.
unidentified
I thought the first thing they were doing was call the police.
tim pool
No, their phones aren't going to work.
People who live out in the country are going to grab their guns first thing and then secure their property where they already have livestock and food available.
So these people in the cities are going to dehydrate.
They're going to die of dehydration first.
ian crossland
You'll see people drinking ocean water, dude.
It's going to be gross.
tim pool
And they'll dehydrate faster and die faster.
Wait, where does the water in New York come from?
Do you know?
ian crossland
Uh, the East River, you mean?
tim pool
No, no, no, the drinking water in New York City.
ian crossland
Oh, I don't actually.
tim pool
Does anybody?
You don't know?
Comes from, uh, there's a, there's a, comes from the mountains up north.
josh hammer
Hey guys, Josh Hammer here, the host of America on Trial with Josh Hammer, a podcast for the First Podcast Network.
Look, there are a lot of shows out there that are explaining the political news cycle, what's happening on the Hill, the this, the that.
There are no other shows that are cutting straight to the point when it comes to the
unprecedented lawfare debilitating and affecting the 2024 presidential election.
We do all of that every single day right here on America on Trial with Josh Hammer.
Subscribe and download your episodes wherever you get your podcasts.
It's America on Trial with Josh Hammer.
tim pool
And it creates a natural, I could be wrong, but I believe New York has a natural water
pressure of seven stories due to the flow of the water.
Maybe it's not seven stories, maybe it's like seven feet, so it's like most base-level houses get natural water pressure or something.
But I do think they need to pressurize it.
There's actually buildings where you can see the freshwater creeks are... They built buildings over them, so it masks it.
But these people have no idea where the water comes from.
When the water shuts off, because the water facilitation isn't working, what will they drink?
unidentified
They'll be dead in four days.
tim pool
Four days.
unidentified
They'll go take a couple sips from the Hudson.
tim pool
They will.
ian crossland
Go underground and try and find pools of it.
tim pool
And it'll dehydrate them faster.
Some smarter people will take a bunch of plastic and they'll put it up on their roof to collect moisture.
New York's got smart people.
They'll figure out how to do that.
And then they're going to lock their doors and be like, we don't make enough water every day to sustain more than a person.
There's not going to be food, so people will flee the city.
The bridges will be jammed up.
Cars will run out of gas.
When the hurricane hit New York, the lines at the gas stations was absolutely fucking bonkers.
ian crossland
That was I was there.
I remember that was crazy.
I think this is what Klaus Schwab is trying to prevent.
And they want to get people hooked up in the metaverse on machines and like IV drips where they're getting their nutrition and not saying a word.
tim pool
That's the matrix, bro.
ian crossland
And that may be the not the only non violent solution, but it's definitely a non I mean, you could argue it's a type of violence to put people in chains like mental slavery like that.
But well, a non violent way to what if it's by choice?
It would be.
tim pool
There you go.
ian crossland
Well, people can do what they want, right?
tim pool
That's the TV show I wanted to do.
ian crossland
We should.
tim pool
I don't think it's gonna happen.
That's a big budget show.
ian crossland
We got a long time.
tim pool
Yeah, by then, the Metaverse will already exist.
It'll be a documentary.
ian crossland
Obviously.
unidentified
You saw this on the Metaverse.
ian crossland
Okay, so crazy people, caste system, human evolution.
This is why I go back to material science.
I feel like if we can offer people something to live for and show technologies that are awesome, you need to just wake people up to the idea of it.
tim pool
I don't think Klaus Schwab is trying to prevent this.
I think Klaus Schwab is trying to make it happen.
Because like the Black Death in Europe, afterwards you get a renaissance.
All of these people working create massive technological progression.
But resources are being constrained and so it's hard and become stagnant.
Especially when you have someone like I got a patent for a hundred years on this tech.
What happens when 80% of the population gets wiped out by a plague?
All those rules are gone and all of that knowledge is now just sitting there to be used again for a new renaissance.
I think that people like Klaus Schwab think there's too many people who do nothing.
These city people do nothing.
What do they do?
No, serious question.
What do they do?
ian crossland
Watch TV, YouTube.
tim pool
Is a New York musician at this point going to help society progress?
No.
Is a subway busker in Chicago helping society progress?
unidentified
No.
tim pool
Now, I'm not saying that their rights should be taken.
I'm saying people like Klaus Schwab would then be like, if we want this nebulous idea of scientific progress, we need to get rid of those who are a drain on our resources, who don't add to it.
ian crossland
Do you think they unleashed COVID as a plague?
unidentified
No.
ian crossland
To try and wipe out half the population so they could speed it up?
unidentified
No.
ian crossland
I wonder about that.
tim pool
I think when you look at the initial reaction to COVID, it seemed like they were panicking and didn't know what to do.
ian crossland
Yeah, that's true.
tim pool
A lot of them did.
ian crossland
The governments, though, but I don't know about the corporations.
tim pool
No, they did.
Yeah, Google demonetized any and all conversations about it.
They didn't want people to know.
And then once they realized what was happening, I think they were like, let's use this.
ian crossland
It's probably a legitimate leak.
tim pool
Let's take advantage of this.
Yeah, because people are dumb.
ian crossland
There are a lot of people that just eat food.
Wake up, eat food, watch stuff happen, eat more food.
tim pool
It's funny that conspiracy theorists have become this great slur because rich people have plans.
Sometimes, rich people commit crimes.
That's literally called the conspiracy.
Poor people can conspire, too.
But we don't usually refer to conspiracy theories as, like, what poor people are doing.
Like, no one's grand conspiracy theory is, I think the two homeless guys are gonna steal my hubcap.
Which would be a conspiracy, but, like, not really consequential.
ian crossland
That sounds like the movie... What's that Steve Martin movie where they get that he's, like, a homeless guy that they make the leader of the business?
I wish if I knew... It's not The Jerk.
Some movie where they pull him off the street, or maybe it's Richard Pryor's in it.
tim pool
Trading Places?
ian crossland
Trading Places.
tim pool
With Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd?
ian crossland
Yeah, that's the actors I got wrong.
Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd, they like pull him off the street.
tim pool
Dan Aykroyd's like a prominent trader, and they destroy his life and make him homeless.
And the bet was that it's nature versus nurture, and they were like, if we take a guy off the street and put him in this position, he'll be successful.
And then, you know, whatever.
ian crossland
So if two businessmen make a conspiracy that involves you and makes you do stuff, are you part of that conspiracy?
unidentified
I think you're definitely part of it, but you're not leading it.
ian crossland
Oh, good point.
unidentified
Right?
I mean, you're obviously a part, but you're more the pawn than the puppet master.
ian crossland
Which is the king or the person moving the pieces?
unidentified
The king would be the one moving the pieces.
I mean, obviously a lot of people... The king doesn't move the pieces.
ian crossland
The king represents you in chess, I think.
tim pool
No, it doesn't.
unidentified
That's the idea.
No?
No.
tim pool
It's your king.
ian crossland
That's fucked up.
tim pool
That's Jesper.
unidentified
Wow.
ian crossland
Yo.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
ian crossland
That's real life.
tim pool
They would say, your king is in check.
Or they would say, like, you know, check or whatever.
But, uh, you move your king.
unidentified
Maybe they're saying check, comma, mate.
Like, check.
Mate.
ian crossland
Probably.
Like, they don't want to get people angry, but they're like, you're fucked.
tim pool
Yeah, exactly.
I think the, you know, the powerful elites view humans like chickens.
What did Peter Thiel say?
If you want to be great, you have to have money.
I'm sorry, but that's the truth.
unidentified
Geez.
tim pool
Maybe that was a wrong quote, but it was something like that.
ian crossland
that up because that's very capitalist statement.
I don't know if that's necessarily true.
Greats kind of, you know, I think what it means is if you want to be rich, you have
to have money.
tim pool
But even then, you know, wealth, maybe that was a wrong quote, but it was something like
that.
unidentified
I don't know.
ian crossland
I don't know if I if that is a quote, just assuming that it's a real quote.
I think that.
unidentified
I'm sure someone said that.
ian crossland
If you want to be great, you gotta be rich.
I've never done... No, I've accomplished some really great stuff without being rich.
But I was born in the United States, so I think we're all rich.
I had access to a video camera and the internet.
unidentified
Hell yeah, baby.
ian crossland
What does rich mean?
Just access to being on top of a slave pile, basically?
tim pool
The CCP's... It auto-filled, but then didn't come up, which is really interesting.
Dig deeper.
Well, I'll look for it later, whatever.
Maybe it was a misquote of him.
But I think the elites view humans with mostly disdain.
And like, I mean, think about it.
Some big fat city liberal type who's like, Joe Biden's the best president ever.
And you're like, you are literally destroying everything around us.
ian crossland
I think that, and it's definitely a far out conspiracy.
I have no real proof of, but I think most likely if I'm wargaming this, that people
like the World Economic Forum are planting this stuff in society, like the dick holes
in the mouths of the kids or whatever the fucking CRT trash.
What is it called?
That book called?
unidentified
Gender Queer.
ian crossland
I don't want to get taken out of context.
They're queer.
I think that they're seeding it, or at least maybe the CCP's involved with a long war where they're trying to destroy the ethos of the United States.
This is what I'm getting.
I don't know why it would spread so fast otherwise, and why it's so hot on TikTok.
And I'm not surprised.
The CCP's been, or the communists- That stuff's not allowed in China.
Exactly.
tim pool
On China TikTok, it's all banned.
In America TikTok, it's allowed.
Because it's destroying American society.
ian crossland
Like, they're probably still, I think they're still thinking of it as the opium wars.
unidentified
The funny thing about TikTok being a Chinese spyware app is the Biden admin has the new disinformation czar, right?
Right.
Who literally was doing weird fanfiction singing on TikTok, which means her phone is compromised by the Chinese Communist Party.
So our disinformation czar literally is just a hacked phone away.
Chinese Communist Party has all of her sensitive information, and now she is in charge of figuring out what, you know, we as Americans are and are not allowed to see.
ian crossland
Let's see Rand Paul go after that dude about the disinformation.
We should have bring this up on the show at some point.
He gave the ultimate one-minute rebuttal to this disinformation board.
Who did?
Rand Paul.
It's riveting.
If you guys haven't seen it yet, I don't know who the guy is that he's talking to, but he works for Homeland Security, I think, one of the guys.
And he's like, you cannot... The last 50 years, the United States, how we figured out our problems is we debate them.
I can't... Have you heard of The Pentagon Papers.
Have you heard of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq with George Bush?
The U.S.
government is the number one disseminator of misinformation on Earth.
I don't trust the U.S.
government to police people's speech.
It's just an amazing minute and ten seconds.
Recommend.
unidentified
Ding.
ian crossland
Dude.
Rand Paul.
That was like, we got this, but then I'm like, I can't put all my faith in our representatives.
I got to stay true to myself and keep speaking.
I get scared sometimes when I talk about this deep shit.
tim pool
It's going to be real.
President Biden on war-related food shortages.
What are you guys going to eat?
ian crossland
Kimchi, man.
I don't know.
I've been thinking about starting a cabbage farm.
unidentified
Well, you know, the left will be satiated because they got a whole lot of words to eat when this food shortage comes.
tim pool
How long, how many days until you think they're eating each other?
unidentified
Oh man, they already are.
tim pool
Well, I mean literally though.
ian crossland
I've been pretty... Three?
unidentified
Oh, you mean after something that were to happen?
tim pool
Let's get real, let's get real.
If the food shortages do hit, what's going to happen to a place like New York?
I mean, the food shortages have hit.
They're recalling chicken because it was undercooked.
They're culling chickens.
We were already dealing with shortages from COVID.
What happens to cities like New York?
What happens to DC?
What happens to Baltimore?
ian crossland
Traffic picks up first because people are getting out and trucks are trying to come in.
People are trying to come in.
So people are going to go out looking for food.
tim pool
Who would come in?
ian crossland
People are trying to bring food back in or trying to deliver food in.
tim pool
Where's the food coming from?
ian crossland
Farms three hours away.
tim pool
People will drive to get food.
And they're not going to get it.
ian crossland
Well, that's what's going to happen right away is they're going to try.
That's what's going to happen right day one.
You're going to see fucking the roads are going to get annihilated, clogged.
Then, okay, so the roads are out of commission.
Then the subways will probably stop running.
unidentified
Well, no.
ian crossland
The subways will keep running, but people will start getting mugged and attacked on the subway, robbed.
It'll be a lot of... And then, if it gets to the point where you can't police it, the police will stop attempting to, and they'll just start to protect themselves and their families.
And the government will make sure that the cops get fed, so that the cops will serve the government instead of the people.
I think that's the basic dominoes falling if we don't do anything to try and change things.
tim pool
I wonder, for real, though.
I mean, we can talk about, like, the apocalypse and liberals are gonna eat each other or whatever, but, like, in reality, with the food shortages coming, the price is through the roof, I wonder what it'll actually look like.
unidentified
I think you can look at societies like Venezuela that have hyperinflation and then food shortages and then see, sort of, what happens in this worst-case scenario.
tim pool
What happens in Maryland?
unidentified
What happens?
Maryland is actually an incredibly agricultural state, so we're well-positioned to weather at least initial problems here, especially here, but the Chesapeake Bay as well.
The number one export of Maryland is agriculture, actually.
tim pool
Really?
unidentified
Yeah.
Wow.
I actually think Maryland is one of the better-positioned states for sort of an extreme worst-case scenario.
I don't know.
tim pool
You've got Baltimore and D.C.?
unidentified
Well, D.C.
sure as hell ain't Maryland.
tim pool
No, but I mean, you walk ten feet across the street.
I know.
unidentified
That's true.
We still, though, have a lot of the raw materials that you would need at first.
Again, I'd rather be here than in, you know, New York City, I guess.
Oh, man.
tim pool
Being on, like, Long Island.
No fun.
ian crossland
Choosing to escape from New York.
tim pool
Being in Los Angeles, dude, you're screwed.
It's a desert.
Southern California is a desert.
What the fuck are you gonna do?
unidentified
Yeah, I mean, look, they're going to lose their minds.
You'll go smuggle yourself into Mexico.
ian crossland
Yeah.
unidentified
The reason that so many people, especially when you're talking about the far left, the real ideologues, the reason they're there is because they don't have self-control or discipline and they need a worldview that justifies their inability to control themselves.
So for as much as they talk about empathy and love and compassion, as soon as it becomes difficult to get food, they will become the most horrific monsters you can imagine.
And they already are in many ways.
It's going to be very overtly brutal, especially among that population.
ian crossland
I was thinking about the farmers, how we need to protect the farmers if this situation, and maybe even if it doesn't arise, like... I don't, I don't agree.
Why's that?
tim pool
Because the farmers are going to protect themselves.
ian crossland
Well, you can only, you're a central target.
That's the problem is they can come from all sides.
tim pool
And these farmers got guns.
Lots of them.
ian crossland
That's true.
It'll be disorganized at first, but then I would imagine if it gets really bad you'll get organized mobs will come.
tim pool
Yeah, they're not gonna be organized.
There may be like some degree with like gangs and stuff.
But the joke we made before is that we're gonna see like some mustachioed flannel shirt wearing black frame glasses guy stealing one of our chickens and running.
Crying at the same time.
ian crossland
That's the first.
tim pool
And then what happens is we chase him off and we're shooting at him and we're like, damn.
And like, this is only after like Civilization's Collapsed, obviously.
You gotta protect your livestock.
But then he's gonna sit there staring at the chicken and be like, what do I do now?
unidentified
I don't wanna kill it!
tim pool
He like takes it and he like bites the feather and goes, that was awful!
unidentified
This does not taste like McDonald's.
tim pool
Yeah, and then the chicken runs back home, and we're like, oh, the chicken's back.
unidentified
It's kind of like... The chicken comes and brings him back to you.
He's like, alright, I got him.
tim pool
The chicken eats him.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Chickens, chickens, like if you're... I don't know if they would, but I imagine that chickens would eat your corpse.
Chickens are omnivores.
They eat each other.
If a chicken starts bleeding, they'll kill it and eat its body.
ian crossland
Holy fuck.
tim pool
Yeah.
Chickens are fucking metal, dude.
ian crossland
I was envisioning an armed gang where the leader's like, we kill, we eat.
Or we die.
And then people will just be... Who's got the ammunition?
Who's got the willpower?
It's gonna be strong men.
But I don't like this stuff.
tim pool
That would be a fucked up way to live.
ian crossland
You don't want to live that way.
No, no, not at all, man.
It's fun to make video games and movies about it, but Jesus God, we need that shit.
tim pool
Imagine some 6'5 ripped bald dude with a bunch of guns.
You're on your knees.
I mean, that's the worst case scenario.
everyone spreads around your property. You're on your knees.
ian crossland
I mean that's the worst case scenario.
tim pool
And they take all your stuff and they say if you want to live you don't move we're taking everything.
ian crossland
And then you're like where's the government? We'll say where's the government? The government will save me.
What is the fucking government? You are the government.
Those people are representatives of you.
tim pool
You are the government in this country. And the guy's going to be like nothing personal but I choose to live and not
unidentified
die.
ian crossland
Ugh. Yep.
Well, it's never happened in the United States before.
I mean, the Civil War was pretty brutal, I hear, but it wasn't like that.
So, but that's not saying it'll never happen.
I don't know, what do we need, molecular printers?
tim pool
I don't think the system would ever collapse to this degree because of radio.
ian crossland
Yeah, shortwave radio.
tim pool
People will instantly band together and radio would be around.
It would have to be like an EMP that wipes out all electronics as we know it and then you'll get that kind of mass chaos.
ian crossland
That's why that flood in New York, the hurricane flood, was pretty disarming because when you see struggles like economic struggles coupled with natural disasters, that's really when you see empires fall.
tim pool
The river flooded last week over here.
Oh, did you see it?
ian crossland
No.
tim pool
Fucking crazy.
ian crossland
How high?
tim pool
I don't know how high it got, but it might have been like 15 or 20 feet or some ridiculous height.
You couldn't go down to the river.
unidentified
No, it was crazy.
ian crossland
Whoa!
tim pool
Like, we went to the trail, the Appalachian Trail, and normally you have to walk from the trail down a bit.
You walk 10 feet, and it was the water was nuts.
ian crossland
I was just over there today.
tim pool
That's wild.
There's an area in Virginia where you can get off and go to the river, and the trees were all underwater.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
Because I guess the rain for several days, and it was just crazy.
unidentified
That little island out there, it was just like, almost completely underwater.
You could see some of the leaves sticking out of the trees.
ian crossland
Is that known to happen frequently?
tim pool
Some barges broke loose and were bouncing and slamming into the bridges, so they were like, we gotta shut them down.
Yeah, it was fuckin' nuts.
ian crossland
River travel might pick up if there was a disaster situation.
tim pool
Canal usage.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
So, the way they used to transport goods was that they would flood an area and then push a boat through it.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
tim pool
Yeah, you could, like, just pull the boat through.
And so those canals are still here.
unidentified
They'd, like, dig them out.
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
They would dig out canals, then let the water come in, and then the boats could easily travel across it easier than wheels could.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
tim pool
So they would float the food to deliver it.
ian crossland
That's pretty cool.
tim pool
Yeah, humans pretty crafty, huh?
ian crossland
Yeah, drones.
Drone delivery is pretty cool.
People be trying to shoot shit out of the sky to get food, but that's one way to send food.
tim pool
Drones as weapons in the chaos?
You'll not want to do it because drones will be hard to combine, hard to fix.
And as recon, they're powerful tools.
But you could set up a drone and just fly at full speed and slam into somebody.
ian crossland
What do you think the CIA or, like, Deep State would do, Administrative State will do, or would do in a situation of, like, a... Mount Weather.
...breakdown.
What's that?
unidentified
Cause it?
tim pool
No.
Mount Weather is the underground bunker not too far from here.
ian crossland
So they bunker up, like, command and then... Yeah, the Enclave, bro.
...like, watch it happen, kind of?
tim pool
The Enclave.
Read your Fallout lore.
ian crossland
The Enclave.
tim pool
Yeah, they go and they form... That's what it was in Fallout.
The Enclave was technologically advanced because they never went through the collapse because it was remnants of the U.S.
government that survived in their specialty vaults.
ian crossland
Okay.
Underground civilization.
tim pool
Anyway, how did we get, how did we get from kids are being given porn to this?
I have no idea.
ian crossland
Oh, social breakdown.
There was something in there that triggered it.
unidentified
Yeah.
It was a somewhat logical train of thought.
tim pool
It was.
I think, I think what we're seeing in these schools is the collapse of civilization.
For real.
If these kids are going to grow up and they're going to be like, like in, in virtual reality, beating off the pictures of carrots.
unidentified
I mean, no, I mean, look, parents not taking care of their children.
That is societal collapse.
ian crossland
How do you define civilization?
unidentified
That's a very good question.
I mean, not to use the word or the definition, but people behaving civil.
ian crossland
Civil society?
unidentified
Things staying together, there being a functioning, coherent structure to human behavior on a large scale.
ian crossland
I had a friend who used to talk about this writer, and I'm blanking on the guy's name, but it'll come back to me, about that civilization is the enemy.
Civilization has destroyed society.
But I'm like, what civilization?
In my opinion, you can have a civilization that's a warmongering civilization, a civilization that's an artistic civilization.
You know, just like the game, Civilization.
Or are they all creating one mega thing that is civilization?
tim pool
Civilization is just humans building systems to live better and protect themselves.
ian crossland
And like, civil is just subjective at that point?
tim pool
I think that's an irrelevant argument.
I think the powerful elites recognize that hard times make strong men, and they're like, we've had good times for too long, it's time to make some hard times?
That's what they're doing.
Anyway.
unidentified
Mad thanks for hanging out!
tim pool
It's been a bliss.
unidentified
Guys, absolute pleasure.
tim pool
Yeah.
And for everybody who's a member, as always, thanks for supporting the show and making it all possible.
