you you | |
| you a lot of crazy news today | ||
| It's really nuts for a Friday. | ||
| In Moscow, I believe the death count is up to 70. | ||
| Major terror attack took place. | ||
| There was a theater show. | ||
| I believe it was a shopping mall. | ||
| I want to make sure I'm going to try these development deals. | ||
| It's like an entertainment center, so it's all kind of combined together, like a big mall. | ||
| Yeah, the videos are absolutely crazy. | ||
| People are being gunned down. | ||
| It's horrifying. | ||
| And of course, initially, this is Moscow, so... | ||
| A lot of people were wondering if Ukraine was involved. | ||
| Ukraine has denied involvement. | ||
| Apparently now, according to the media, it's being widely reported that ISIS has claimed responsibility. | ||
| I gotta be honest, when I heard that, I went, huh? | ||
| Does ISIS still exist? | ||
| I did not realize that. | ||
| Okay, well, you know. | ||
| Now the crazy thing is, it was a couple weeks ago, the U.S. | ||
| issued a, the State Department issued a warning about an imminent terror attack in Moscow. | ||
| So we're gonna go through all those details, break that down. | ||
| Got a lot of crazy news today. | ||
| The House has passed the mini-omnibus bill. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Woohoo! | |
| We're all excited about that. | ||
| And I think more Democrats voted for it than Republicans. | ||
| Ah, so great. | ||
| Marjorie Taylor Greene filed to vacate Speaker Johnson. | ||
| Matt Gaetz is saying this could lead to a Democrat Speaker of the House. | ||
| That's exactly what I was thinking. | ||
| And then, of course, Candace Owens is officially out at the Daily Wire, and the internet lit up when they found out there was a lot going on. | ||
| Some of her podcast episodes are unavailable right now, and people are speculating as to what was the cause of this. | ||
| I'll just say right off the bat, I think it was probably the contract ended, you know? | ||
| So that's really the simple version. | ||
| But we'll definitely get into some of those missing episodes and talk about all of this craziness that's going on. | ||
| Before we get started, head over to castbrew.com. | ||
| Buy Cast Brew Coffee to support the work we do. | ||
| Everyone loves Appalachian Nights. | ||
| We're able to maintain it in stock. | ||
| We are ordering this stuff so quickly. | ||
| Guys, we order thousands of bags. | ||
| Okay, check it out. | ||
| Re-Arrives with Roberto Jr. | ||
| was a Halloween run. | ||
| It's almost April. | ||
| And we haven't been able to sell all of our re-rides with Roberto Jr. | ||
| because the minimum order was $5,000. | ||
| So I was like, okay, well, you know, we'll see what we do. | ||
| We still have it! | ||
| We still have it available. | ||
| The way it works, really, is the bags are a minimum of 5,000, and then the coffee is made every certain amount of bag cycle. | ||
| They will roast more of the blend. | ||
| And so we haven't been able to offload all of our bags of ReRise with Roberto Jr., and Mr. Bocas' Pumpkin Spice experience, of course, is retiring with the untimely passing of Mr. Bocas. | ||
| Rest in peace. | ||
| But we will be launching a new in memoriam for him with a new blend. | ||
| The thing is, with all that, we go through thousands upon thousands of bags of Appalachian Nights, Uh, okay. | ||
| I'm glad. | ||
| That's like our signature blend. | ||
| The crazy thing is Ri- I'm sorry, Rives with Roberto Jr. | ||
| was originally our, like, signature with Roberto Jr. | ||
| on the bag, and Appalachian Nights was an afterthought, but then once people ordered it, that's all they wanted, and so I'm- I'm begging. | ||
| I'm begging you to buy our other coffee. | ||
| It's good. | ||
| It is. | ||
| I know Appalachian Nights is good, but throw in an extra bag of something else while you're at it. | ||
| Nah, I can't blame you. | ||
| The only thing I drink is Appalachian Nights. | ||
| That's all we're drinking. | ||

| Joining us tonight, you already heard of you, he's here! | ||
| Jack Posobiec. | ||
| What's up, guys? | ||
| Good to be back. | ||
| Welcome to the beginning of democracy? | ||
| Maybe not the end. | ||
| We ended it already, so now we have to begin a new democracy. | ||
| I love that arc. | ||
| The very obvious, the crowd laughs, you chuckle as you're saying it, and then CNN's like, Czechoslovakia wants to end democracy! | ||
| That was something. | ||
| I mean, you do different stuff, you know, you do shows every day, every night, you come up with different things and you never know what's really going to take off. | ||
| It's because I kind of speed ran all the different things you're not supposed to talk about because I hit Ending Democracy, End January 6th, and then I held up a rosary and said, we're going to replace everything with this. | ||
| And I kind of just speed ran at that all at once. | ||
| And, um, You know, then I did, you know, the whole speech about how we're going to end democracy by, you know, destroying voter ID checks and making it so that you can't actually audit the election. | ||
| And we're going to censor people on social media, arrest our main political opponent four times in the midst of an election. | ||
| And, you know, all of this. | ||
| And they just didn't even care. | ||
| And even though I did, I did appreciate when Bill Maher was going on and bringing it up. | ||
| Because you could really tell that when he started reading it, He probably had been handed, I totally agree with your analysis, that he had been handed like a note card from his staff who was like all woke and upset about what I said. | ||
| But then something kind of, you can see him like halfway through the quote where he's like, oh wait, this is a bit. | ||
| This is not, you know, this is, I get this. | ||
| He wrote this and he was doing a bit and you don't get it. | ||
| And now I have to stick with it because I've already started it. | ||
| And I'm stuck here, so I'm just gonna let her get with it. | ||
| I embarrassed Bill Maher without even being on Bill Maher, which is amazing. | ||
| You have a new book. | ||
| We have a book. | ||
| The book is called The Unhumans. | ||
| We're doing pre-sales right now. | ||
| Basically, we took all the communist history episodes that I did last year, The China Files, And then just this past Christmas, all the chronicles of the revolution, basically every communist revolution that you've seen from around the world, and what myself and my co-author on this is Joshua Lysak, and we've systematized a communist revolution. | ||
| So we've broken this out into various stages, OPE, operational planning of the environment, how it's done pre-revolution, in the midst of a revolution, in the current revolution, Right on. | ||
| So you're a host over at Human Events. | ||
| Everybody knows who you are, I guess. | ||
| Is there anything else you want to say before I was going to interject something? | ||
| I'll say happy birthday to Tiny Takes. | ||
| It was a birthday yesterday. | ||
| So I just have to read this real quick. | ||
| We got a super chat from Prent M. Roberto Jr. | ||
| gets a blend then dies. | ||
| Mr. Bocas gets a blend then dies. | ||
| Can someone go check on Alex Stein? | ||
| He was just in the hospital, guys! | ||
| I didn't even know he was sick! | ||
| He was just in the hospital. | ||
| What's going on? | ||
| I called him. | ||
| I have her back from him. | ||
| That is not a funny meme. | ||
| Phil's hanging out. | ||
| How you doing, guys? | ||
| My name is Phil Labonte. | ||
| I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains. | ||
| I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary. | ||
| How you doing, Ian? | ||
| Sitting here with all these communists. | ||
| Anti-communists, I mean. | ||
| Well, you know, we're smart and know that things that communists do end up ending in piles of dead bodies. | ||
| Yo, Helldivers 2, which we should play, for our democracy, it's such predictive programming. | ||
| Are you down with that? | ||
| Are you noticing it? | ||
| They're like, for our democracy! | ||
| And they fight these bugs. | ||
| Well, I was told it was satire. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is. | |
| When it's all little kids, they wouldn't know that. | ||
| It's like, it's both. | ||
| That's the problem with satire sometimes. | ||
| Did you write that on humans or are you like a publisher? | ||
| So I'm one of the authors. | ||
| There's two authors. | ||
| Myself, Joshua Lysak, and it's like what Phil's saying. | ||
| And conservatives, by the way, conservatives, moderates, and centrists need a software upgrade on all this. | ||
| Yes. Because people sit there and okay, take what you just said, 100 million bodies piled up and they'll say, oh wow, | ||
| Yes. | ||
| how can people still support communism if it's already, you know, killed 100 million people? Wouldn't they think that's | ||
| wrong? Yes, if you are dealing with people who are reasonable. | ||
| If they're dealing with people who are not communists. | ||
| But if you're dealing with people who are communists or people who are unreasonable, | ||
| then you are not dealing with someone who views 100 million deaths as a negative. | ||
| They'll say, that's a good start. We should add to that. | ||
| Remember when that woman posted, people often say socialism doesn't work, but whenever you | ||
| fail, you got to try, try again. | ||
| And then someone commented with, oops, burn the souffle, and it's like the Killing Fields or something like that. | ||
| Right, the Killing Fields of Cambodia, or everything in Communist China, which, of course, actually Netflix is apparently talking about that. | ||
| We're getting to the news, we got Ian. | ||
| Yo. | ||
| What happened, everybody? | ||
| Good to see y'all. | ||
| Check out the Culture War from this morning if you haven't seen it yet on Tenet Media. | ||
| It was hot. | ||
| Rolo Tomasi and Timothy Gordon. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Were you on that one this morning? | |
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, word. | |
| Okay, cool. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I'm Serge.com. | |
| Good to have you back, Jack, as always. | ||
| Let's just get into it. | ||
| So here's the big news. | ||
| This major attack in Moscow at the concert hall. | ||
| Islamic State claims responsibility. | ||
| I'm just gonna come out right away and say, doubt, but okay. | ||
| The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack on the Moscow concert hall that left at least 40 people killed. | ||
| I believe you said, Jack, earlier, before the show, it's up to 70 now? | ||
| I'm seeing 70. | ||
| Of course, I'll just do the preface, you know, your disclaimer that this thing is ongoing. | ||
| It's happening in real time. | ||
| The attack happened just a couple hours before we went live here. | ||
| Security services we know are going through the center right now. | ||
| So take everything we say as being within the fog of war. | ||
| This is real-time situation. | ||
| It's actually going on and I believe I'm even hearing stuff that I look into that say that they're still chasing after some of the terrorists and elements of the Wagner group and even Russian Spetsnaz are up in Moscow trying to go after these guys. | ||
| Okay, ISIS? | ||
| I mean, that would seem like a stretch because ISIS, as everyone knows, at least in terms of the physical caliphate, was destroyed during the Trump administration. | ||
| We had this orange man as president who did very many Who did very, very bad things to ISIS and they went away. | ||
| But what people also don't always realize is that ISIS was also fighting Russia in Syria. | ||
| So certainly would have motive. | ||
| There's no question about that. | ||
| It's just been that we haven't really heard from them in years. | ||
| And all of a sudden pop up in the middle of Moscow, right after Putin has this huge victory, right after Ukraine got absolutely bombed to the stone age last night. | ||
| I got a conspiracy theory. | ||
| Are there subversives in the caucuses that could be trained up to do something like this? | ||
| Certainly. | ||
| But the idea that this has nothing to do with Ukraine is frankly just ludicrous. | ||
| I think it could be Russia. | ||
| That's what I was thinking, too. | ||
| What would the objective be for Ukraine? | ||
| What is their gain, militaristically, strategically, of attacking this concert hall? | ||
| There is an obvious one. | ||
| Shock. | ||
| Terror. | ||
| Yes, terror. | ||
| You fight us, we bring this to your home. | ||
| They're going to clamp down on themselves, yes. | ||
| But also making sure the people of Russia that are supporting it know that this is not something you can hide from. | ||
| We'll bring it to you. | ||
| There's also the... I think that's the most likely. | ||
| The slightly, or a bit less likely, but still very probable, is Russia doing it to itself, because they could then point the finger at anybody they want. | ||
| I suppose, and I've heard like Malcolm Nance said that and some other people, but it's, you know. | ||
| Oh, he's a conspiracy theorist now, huh? | ||
| No, he's always been a conspiracy theorist. | ||
| He's a clown. | ||
| No, I mean, he can track artillery pieces and shells flying overhead. | ||
| Never seen a test before. | ||
| They come in threes. | ||
| Oh, there's number four. | ||
| Oops. | ||
| But so the idea being that, you know, if you're Russia and you're Putin right now, You're saying that we defeated the Ukrainian counter-offensive, I've just been re-elected, and he's claiming victory. | ||
| Not to get into the whole... By the way, I love how they say, well, there's statistical anomalies in Putin's election. | ||
| I'm like, oh really? | ||
| Statistical anomalies are allowed to be a verifier for whether or not an election is legitimate or not. | ||
| Interesting! | ||
| I wonder if there's any other countries we can apply that to. | ||
| But Putin wants to project strength right now, and the worst possible thing for projecting strength would be showing that you're Your capital can be attacked and that your people can be just mercy. | ||
| I don't know if we've played any videos yet. | ||
| We were just watching them, but I don't even know. | ||
| I don't think we can play. | ||
| I mean, look, some of this stuff, because it's not censored yet or merciless videos that I don't think we can. | ||
| This is this is similar to Phil. | ||
| You know, we're talking before. | ||
| It's similar to Bataclan in. | ||
| I think it was November of 2015 or so in Paris. | ||
| And I mean, but the only, the difference being there's more powerful social media now. | ||
| And so you can actually see videos from inside as people were posting them online of these machine gun wielding assailants, militants walking around and just slaughtering people, forcing people into a corner and stop me if I'm going too far, but you know, forcing people into a corner and for you to, I mean, and just, just gunning them all down. | ||
| And these, again, these are innocent civilians at a, Concert Hall. | ||
| So, of course, the United States very quickly had to say, we don't think Ukraine had anything to do with this. | ||
| You know, fastest investigation in world history, by the way. | ||
| Faster than the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, as a matter of fact. | ||
| And they have to do this because if there's even a whiff of the CIA being involved in this, then that means all of our taxpayer dollars going to fund Ukraine going to fund this war just funded that attack that you just saw and keep in mind that and I there's this clip that Alex Jones has posted when I was on Info Wars at the beginning of March saying that there are going to be terrorist attacks coming in Moscow. | ||
| We actually we have this that this phase of the war that the war was moving into a new phase and insurgency phase. | ||
| We have the article actually right here from National Review State Department warns of imminent terror attack in Moscow warns America to avoid crowds from March 8th. | ||
| I mean, that's wild. | ||
| Well, I mean, look, there's one thing that I want to say about this. | ||
| Like, the United States has had, and clearly still does have, the most advanced and the most comprehensive surveillance apparatus in human history. | ||
| So, just because they got wind of something doesn't mean that they were planning something or they were involved in funding. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| No, but there have been terror attacks, not to this scale, in Moscow. | ||
| There have been the drone strikes. | ||
| So for the US to warn Darya Dugina, Dugin's daughter was car bombed in an assassination that, you know, it's questionable. | ||
| So Alexander Dugin, for people who don't know, is like this high, you know, high profile writer, political theorist, etc. | ||
| within Russia and outside. | ||
| And people have called him like, and it's debatable whether this is true, but they've called him Putin's brain and it's very ideological and has called for a mass revamping and reordering of all the Russian speaking peoples into one country. | ||
| And they said that this is kind of similar to where Putin gets some of these ideas that he espoused on Tucker. | ||
| And so anyway, they Blow up his car, but his daughter happened to be driving it. | ||
| And so people aren't sure if they were targeting him or targeting her. | ||
| Obviously a very hot, very, very high level attack. | ||
| Um, it was carried out with precision in Moscow, um, more than likely by Ukrainian intelligence. | ||
| Um, certainly I would say at this point with us intelligence backing the same way as Nord Stream two. | ||
| And the idea that Look, we just had the New York Times article at the beginning of March that predicated all of this, which is before I went on InfoWars and made my prediction before the State Department came out. | ||
| And Phil specifically said concerts, specifically used the word concerts within 48 hours. | ||
| The warning did? | ||
| The warning did. | ||
| Specifically the word concerts and said extremists are targeting public gatherings, including concerts. | ||
| So they specifically use the word concerts. | ||
| And we had that New York Times article that said the CIA has spent a decade building a dozen bases across the borderlands of Ukraine and Russia, which is funny because the word Ukraine means borderland itself. | ||
| And specifically that they were training up this guy, Kirill Obudinov, who has just been appointed the head of Ukraine's intelligence services. | ||
| And at the time they were talking about Maybe positioning him as the head of all of Ukraine's intelligence services. | ||
| This is the CIA's man in Kiev. | ||
| And so that all happens. | ||
| Victoria Nuland all of a sudden just suddenly like disappears from the scene. | ||
| And I said, look, it's very clear what's going on. | ||
| They're going to move into the insurgency phase of this. | ||
| They understand that they're going to be losing at least the four OBLAS that they've already lost, probably, or at this point, well, you know, going back at this point, definitely four more. | ||
| Given what we've seen and this level of atrocity now, if Putin believes that Ukraine had even a whiff of involvement of this, I mean, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near Zelensky right now. | ||
| Yeah, but also, does it even matter if they do or do not? | ||
| Russia, Vladimir Putin must operate under the assumption it was Ukraine. | ||
| As it comes to war, I often say it doesn't matter what's true. | ||
| Russia, the perception wise is going to blame this on Ukraine and the United States. | ||
| And so is everyone in China. | ||
| And so is everyone in the global south. | ||
| And so is pretty much anyone who's looking at this thing. | ||
| Nobody's going to say this is as it comes to war. | ||
| I often say it doesn't matter what's true. | ||
| Clearly the truth matters to a great degree for history and policy. | ||
| But in terms of what escalates conflict, I mean, it could be a, it could be the plum | ||
| truth that a bunch of ISIS radicals did this, but it doesn't matter because you have an | ||
| entire nation that's going to be who's our enemy, who stands to gain, why would we be | ||
| attacked? | ||
| How did World War I start? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, sure, it was... | ||
| A Serbian nationalist assassinating the heir to the Habsburg Empire, so the heir of the Habsburgs, the heir to Austria-Hungary. | ||
| So that triggers a war with Russia, which triggers a war with France, and everybody knows how all the alliances worked out. | ||
| It's about the domino effect. | ||
| I even forgot to mention in the opening that Kate Middleton came out and said she had cancer. | ||
| I mean, this is a wild day. | ||
| Really sad. | ||
| Wild, wild day. | ||
| You know, the situation going on in Russia, it speaks to what we've all been discussing for the past year since the invasion started, which is you don't know what is going to happen that would escalate, and I don't see how Russia doesn't look at this as, you know, an attack on On them from the Ukraine every everybody knows that they're going to try and escalate. | ||
| So it's just a matter of what is Putin get out of you know, or what what does he want to target in Ukraine because he's gonna he's got all the excuse he needs now. | ||
| So whatever whatever idea that he may have had in his head that he was like when but maybe I can do this or maybe I can't do that when it comes to doing some kind of decisive move to end in the hopes of ending the Russian war. | ||
| He's got all the excuse that he had that he could possibly want right now. | ||
| Well, and remember, too, that in Russia and the way they view the conflict and the way most Russians view the conflict, it's not like they hate Ukraine and they just want to destroy Ukraine, right? | ||
| They view this as an existential war with the collective West. | ||
| So they view that the West has declared war on them. | ||
| And this is what Putin was essentially trying to get across to Tucker. | ||
| And when Tucker says, why did you invade Ukraine? | ||
| And his response was, well, from our perspective, we were invaded. | ||
| And now what do you have in France? | ||
| You have Macron going out there and saying, we're going to send thousands of troops from France into, uh, into Western Ukraine. | ||
| You've heard the new Polish president, the new globalist, Polish president, Donald Tusk saying that he's going to do the similar, um, with Polish troops. | ||
| And so what you're really looking at now is a Syrianization of the conflict. | ||
| And I laid all this out a while back. | ||
| And if you look at Syria and how the Syrian Civil War played out, it's amazing. | ||
| Even ISIS is showing up, right? | ||
| So I said there would be a Syrianization of the conflict wherein the government controls part of the country. | ||
| Then there's another part of the country that's controlled by, quote unquote, separatist groups. | ||
| You'll see terrorist attacks all over the place. | ||
| Russia will come in and stabilize some areas. | ||
| And then you'll just see little pockets of American and Western troops coming in to quote-unquote | ||
| Stabilize various areas and I laid this out an entire month ago, and that's exactly what we're seeing play out here | ||
| So we're gonna see a frozen conflict We don't know exactly where that line is going to be drawn | ||
| at this point, but I would be very surprised Given the the given the ferocity and brutality of this | ||
| attack I'd be very surprised if Putin would be interested in in | ||
| allowing the the current regime to say in power in Kiev You know, we're having that solar eclipse on the 8th? | ||
| Yes, very excited. | ||
| And there was the other solar eclipse back in October, which draws an X right over Eagle Pass. | ||
| I don't know how much of it is true, but people are saying, like someone mentioned on the show, that the eclipse is going to travel through like five different cities named Nevaeh. | ||
| Oh, Nineveh. | ||
| Nineveh. | ||
| Nineveh, yeah, wow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What is that? | |
| They misspoke, but Nineveh is like a, it's a story in the Bible. | ||
| They talk a lot about the city of Nineveh. | ||
| I think it was in... That's where Jonah was supposed to go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| Yeah, during the whale. | ||
| Is that true, the eclipse is going over that city? | ||
| Someone said it went over five cities called Nevaeh, but they misspoke and they meant to say Nineveh. | ||
| I haven't double-checked though, I haven't checked. | ||
| Oh man, I just, I'm like, I don't know that I can believe any of this stuff, but I actually had a couple people ask me who are normies. | ||
| Totally just, they were like, do you think there's even an election if like a war breaks out? | ||
| Like, somebody who doesn't pay attention to politics but knows enough that this stuff's going on in Russia, Ukraine, Israel. | ||
| I get asked that question so often. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, do you think we even have an, I'm like, wow. | ||
| Well, Ukraine already cancelled theirs. | ||
| So here's another big thing that's coming up. | ||
| Zelensky's term. | ||
| So Zelensky's term, because he's the president, is supposed to end, is actually set to end two months from today, essentially. | ||
| It's like the end of Well, so here's an honest question. | ||
| May 22nd. So the question then is if he's the he's only the legal president until the end of May, then if Russia wanted | ||
| to conduct an operation against this guy, they could easily say he's not a legitimate president because his term ended | ||
| and he's ruling by fiat and military action. | ||
| Well, so here's an honest question with several oblasts in Ukraine already outside of Ukrainian control, they cannot | ||
| hold a an election. They can hold an election in the state in the territories they control, but certainly not in the | ||
| Donbass region. Some people. | ||
| Well, they already weren't. | ||
| Before the control of the Russians? | ||
| Before 2022, the national elections didn't include Kiev or the separatist areas. | ||
| It didn't include Kiev? | ||
| Excuse me, not Kiev, Crimea. | ||
| Crimea. | ||
| Right, obviously not Crimea since 2014 or whatever, but the Donbass was not included. | ||
| Correct. | ||
| Okay, fair point. | ||
| The argument made by men on the left is like, how do you have an election when you've lost territory in a war? | ||
| Plainly, as they've already done, apparently. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, it would be and it'd be interesting too, because Zelensky has a lot of deep seated opposition within his own country. | ||
| There are people who said that he hasn't conducted the war well. | ||
| There are people who have pointed out and the average Ukrainian doesn't actually know how many people were killed in the counter offensive. | ||
| They have no clue. | ||
| They're just they're totally psyoping everybody about how many people they lost and how many casualties they took and that ridiculous. | ||
| that ridiculous just throwing people against the Russian lines. | ||
| And so you've got Petro Poroshenko, the previous president who ran against | ||
| Zelensky in his first election in 2018. | ||
| You've got, it was 18 or 19, and you've got a lot of people by the way, like people don't remember this | ||
| but Zelensky was actually very unpopular before the war started | ||
| because of the lockdowns. It's like this like totally separate | ||
| oh yeah remember that? | ||
| It's like on the previous season. | ||
| And there were protests in Maidan Square against Zelensky because they thought he was too harsh on the lockdown policies and he was pushing the vaccines too much and foreshadowing. | ||
| And then it was sort of this Avengers bearded Zelensky that comes out in the face of the war who gets this huge row of support. | ||
| But then as the war's gone south, just like has happened in many, many situations, I don't know, South Vietnam, for example, the leader who we thought was the stalwart defender of freedom, is now viewed as kind of like a loser, kind of pathetic, saying you can't win on the battlefield, we need somebody fresh in there. | ||
| And the problem with that is, you know, you make those deals with the CIA, the CIA puts you on an early retirement plan pretty quick. | ||
| Yeah, I just had a totally normal person just say something came up about the Red Sea trading and like China and then... Sure. | ||
| Jumped right to, and then when the war starts, they won't have elections and then you don't got to worry about Biden or Trump. | ||
| And I was like, oh man, maybe that's, you know, we keep talking about what's the Democrat plan for Joe Biden. | ||
| He's not popular. | ||
| They don't got anything. | ||
| Yeah, it could be. | ||
| How can we have an election when, you know, we're currently under attack? | ||
| Or the worst part of it, and this is something that even Neil Howe got into in Forth Earning, is that, the new version of it, was that if a war starts, And then there's a provocation in the US or Ukraine or somewhere in Europe and somehow it gets blamed on Trump and it gets like blamed on MAGA and somehow there's some connection to Trump then all of a sudden it's like you're on the side of Hitler. | ||
| Man. | ||
| Well, we'll do a hard segue into American domestic issues, because this is very big news from earlier today. | ||
| Ben Shapiro's The Daily Wire severs ties with Candace Owens after her embrace of anti-Semitic rhetoric. | ||
| I love the headline from the corporate press on all of these things. | ||
| Jeremy Boring, co-CEO of Daily Wire, simply said that Daily Wire and Candace Owens have ended their business relationship. | ||
| It was fairly professional. | ||
| As far as I know, Candace also just said, here's my YouTube channel, thank you. | ||
| Everybody runs wild with speculation. | ||
| And you can't, you can't help it, can you, CNN? | ||
| They had to make sure they put Ben Shapiro's name in it. | ||
| They want to make sure they get those clicks. | ||
| And they had to include anti-Semitic rhetoric. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Well, it's Oliver Darcy, so... I know, I know, of course. | ||
| But to be fair, there's like four or five other corporate press outlets that did the exact same thing. | ||
| So what we know is that she is no longer with The Daily Wire. | ||
| There are many people that are suggesting the issue was she had made comments critical of Israel and she was critical of certain Jewish individuals pertaining to Christianity versus Judaism. | ||
| However, I don't know that any of that plays a role, to be completely honest. | ||
| I think her contract was likely coming to an end, and she disagrees with them. | ||
| It really is much simpler. | ||
| We know for a fact that Ben and Candace disagree on a lot of things. | ||
| I don't think that's grounds for them to be like, we're no longer going to work with you ever again. | ||
| But if they both were kind of like, maybe we shouldn't work together, That's just it. | ||
| Yeah, she tweeted out that she's free. | ||
| That was part of her tweet, so she obviously felt trapped there up until today. | ||
| And she and Ben ended up falling out, I don't know, four or five months ago. | ||
| I wasn't here, and I didn't talk about it, but I saw they had a miscommunication, and then neither of them realized what was going on, and then all of a sudden it blew up into this big fight, and then they stopped talking to each other, and then she wouldn't mention his name. | ||
| She probably wanted out. | ||
| She probably went to the guys and was like, triple my salary, new contract. | ||
| And they were like, no. | ||
| And she's like, alright, I'm done. | ||
| I don't think she... I doubt she probably asked for a lot more money. | ||
| I bet she wanted like a huge raise because she was really unhappy, is my guess, or she didn't even ask for anything and she just left. | ||
| One of the two. | ||
| I'm assuming Candace is... she's already successful and wealthy and she doesn't need the money from them. | ||
| She's gonna be great. | ||
| If it's an issue of freedom and you've got someone who's a millionaire, it's impossible to buy freedom. | ||
| Yeah, she should start her own network, CandaceOwns.com. | ||
| But I do want to point this out. | ||
| Is that right? | ||
| Christie Nevels on Twitter, I'm not sure who this is, took a screenshot showing that episodes 299 and 301 of the Candace Owens show have been removed, saying that both were about Bridget McCrone. | ||
| And if you head over to Apple Podcasts, you can see that the episode from March 13th, I believe, is what we're looking at. | ||
| No, there's no one. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| March 13th is not there, so it goes 12 to 14, 300 to 302, and it goes March 7th to 12. | ||
| There's no 299, so there's no, uh... But there is a March 8th shot in the dark, so I don't know for sure, but it looks like... | ||
| One of the key issues may have been coming out and saying that Emmanuel Macron's wife, Bridget Macron, is a man, and I'll stake my career on it. | ||
| I have to assume that the Daily Wire immediately got a lawsuit threat, because that's how these things work. | ||
| We've received threats of lawsuits. | ||
| Now, many people, there's a lot of people who are like, no, no, Israel! | ||
| And they're saying it's because she was critical of Israel or whatever. | ||
| Yeah, it's entirely possible, you know, considering, you know, Ben Shapiro is much more invested for obvious reasons. | ||
| By the way, that, and I haven't even looked into it, but that would potentially be under French law. | ||
| Well, elaborate. | ||
| So defamation laws, as most people know, in the U.S. | ||
| is extremely loose. | ||
| And even more so for public individuals, public figures, they say. | ||
| This came up with Nick Salmon, of course, because Nick Salmon was a private individual who was defamed as opposed to a public individual. | ||
| This did not come up, for example, for Kyle Rittenhouse because they claimed that Kyle Rittenhouse was named in the arrest warrant. | ||
| And so when he was named in that capacity, that made him a public figure. | ||
| So that being said, in the EU, the laws are much, much stricter. | ||
| And I've seen people try to do this. | ||
| They call it, what is it? | ||
| Yo, I'm sorry, I just figured it out. | ||
| Tourism lawsuits in the UK, where people have tried to do this in the UK and it doesn't work. | ||
| But if France were going to bring it, it could be pretty rough. | ||
| I think I just figured it out. | ||
| I just figured it out. | ||
| You figured it out. | ||
| Candace Owens goes to the guys at the Daily Wire and says, I want more money. | ||
| And they said, no. | ||
| And she goes, contract negotiation. | ||
| They go, contract negotiation. | ||
| She says, it's not working for me. | ||
| They're like, well, too bad. | ||
| You're in a contract. | ||
| And she goes, oh yeah? | ||
| So she goes on her show and goes, Bridgette McCrone is a man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then they're like, ah! | |
| And then they're like, OK, OK, we get it. | ||
| We get it. | ||
| You're out of your contract. | ||
| Leave us alone. | ||
| That did kind of come out of nowhere. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| And I'm thinking like, what is she? | ||
| Could it be that she came out with those episodes saying, I will stake my career on Bridget McCormick being a man because it put the liability on The Daily Wire, which she would not absorb? | ||
| And so they're like, OK, OK, OK. | ||
| Which I'm sure if she said it on the show, it would come under But as far as I know, Candace, she has integrity. | ||
| So I don't think she would say something she didn't believe. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I, so I, I, yeah, I'm with you on that. | |
| I don't, I don't think Candace would, it came out of nowhere though. | ||
| I don't think Candace just knowing her would, would do something. | ||
| She didn't strike me as the kind of, and people were like, Oh, does Candace hate this person or that person? | ||
| And I don't think she's like that. | ||
| I just really don't think she's like that at all. | ||
| She's a very good person. | ||
| She's like a really funny actor that is stuck in a political realm. | ||
| Like if the world were very healthy, she'd be like an actor. | ||
| I feel like she's just got that lightheartedness to her. | ||
| That's why when everyone's like, oh it's because of this thing or that thing, I was like... | ||
| When I actually sat down, when I met Candace, when I went on her show the first time, I was deeply impressed. | ||
| Like, it was legit. | ||
| It was genuine. | ||
| She knew what she was talking about. | ||
| She did the research. | ||
| Her logic was sound. | ||
| I actually agree with her on a lot of things. | ||
| I was like, oh wow, she knows exactly what she's talking about. | ||
| And then before, during, and after the show, it was all completely genuine and real. | ||
| And I truly believe she believed what she was saying. | ||
| So, it would be funny if she was having, like, tough negotiations with the Daily Wire, and they were like, Candace, you have another year on your contract, you can't leave. | ||
| And she goes, then I will make it not worth it for you. | ||
| That would be funny, but yeah, it's probably not the case. | ||
| But that means she also deeply believes that Bridgette McCrone is a man, and I don't think that's correct, but, you know. | ||
| We did a bit on this on The Unusual Suspects with Vinny O'Shaughnessy at the Valuetainment, like, a couple weeks ago, about Bridgette. | ||
| And I don't want to do a whole Bridgette McCrone segment, as you guys want to, but it's pretty wild. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Have you looked into it at all? | |
| The glancing look I gave into it was something that, like, they couldn't find pictures of when she was younger. | ||
| They're kept in the same place as Epstein's Black Book and the Michelle Obama pregnancy photos. | ||
| Everyone has transes on the brain. | ||
| When I was as old as that. | ||
| It really, like, everybody, it's this, like, thing where people are just constantly thinking, like, the transvestigators are on the prowl. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Transvestigators. | ||
| I was going to say, do you remember the transvestigators? | ||
| Yes! | ||
| It was leftists and they were like taking pictures of women and being like, this is | ||
| actually a man and here's why. | ||
| And I'm like, it's funny because that's like the meanest thing to say to a woman. | ||
| It really is. | ||
| But I know it's actually the nicest thing to say. | ||
| So what you want to do, what you could do to- I don't know, man. | ||
| Lizzo's beautiful apparently. You could go on like there was a 4chan post of this guy saying | ||
| that he goes on you see what I'm talking about? No. Where he goes and says oh I've been dating | ||
| these um these liberal women that I'll meet with on dating apps on purpose and I'll go out with | ||
| them and after like the first couple of dates I'll be like that's really cool that you're | ||
| you know that um you know not only that uh you've been so you've been so open about your transition | ||
| but you you know you really passed you really passed. | ||
| And it just drives them completely nuts. | ||
| And he was like, I've done this to seven women now. | ||
| They can't get mad about it. | ||
| You can just be like, Oh no, I'm not. | ||
| You'd be like, Oh really? | ||
| Oh, cause I thought we were, wasn't that, there was a Seinfeld episode about that where, um, Elaine was dating a guy and she thought he was black. | ||
| And then he thought she was, I think he thought she was either Jewish or, or maybe also black. | ||
| I forget what it was. | ||
| I was like, but your name is Bennis. | ||
| Um, and at the end they're like, so wait, so we're just a couple of white people. | ||
| And she goes, she goes, yeah, I guess we are. | ||
| What do we do? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Do you want to go to the gap? | ||
| I don't know anything about it or if it's real and it's insane to me to think that a world leader is married to someone that's 25 years older than him that is transsexual. | ||
| The age thing is already weird enough. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| This thing is already weird enough. | ||
| The story goes that he was 16 and he met his future wife in school, that she was his teacher at the time or something like that. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| That's about as far as I'm gonna go. | ||
| Feels like straight up grooming. | ||
| I gotta read this paragraph. | ||
| Oliver Darcy is such a scumbag. | ||
| He wrote, but since the October 7th Hamas terror attack on Israel, Owens has repeatedly waded into anti-Semitic waters. | ||
| Now hold on. | ||
| What could she have possibly said that was so anti-Semitic? | ||
| As she fiercely criticized Israel What? | ||
| That's a country. | ||
| Suggesting the Jewish government was committing genocide in Gaza and claiming there's a sinister small ring of Jewish people in Hollywood and D.C. | ||
| involved in something quite sinister. | ||
| If you want to separate those two statements, I'd accept that. | ||
| People are allowed to criticize Israel over their military actions. | ||
| You know who else criticizes Israel and accuses Israel of genocide? | ||
| Other Jewish people. | ||
| All the time. | ||
| Like, go look on Twitter. | ||
| Go spend five seconds on TikTok. | ||
| You'll find some. | ||
| I just I just love that it's like Candace Owens has criticized Israel's military operations. | ||
| She is wading into anti-semitism. | ||
| It's like, dude, just spare me with that stuff. | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
| Yeah, that's like some straight up Iraq war kind of. | ||
| I mean, look, also, you have to remember, like the Israel Gaza thing is like Schrodinger's bigot. | ||
| Like if you if you support Gaza, then you're anti-semitic. | ||
| If you support Israel, then it's because you hate the Muslims. | ||
| Either way, you're damned. | ||
| If you do, you're damned if you don't. | ||
| So. | ||
| They can't just write, we don't have comment from them on why the separation, and just end it with a single paragraph, because Oliver Darcy is a scumbag grifter. | ||
| So, let me just explain. | ||
| He puts Ben Shapiro's name in the title because it gets clicks. | ||
| Because they know that when people do a keyword search, this article would pop up. | ||
| Instead of just putting The Daily Wire, which is a corporation for which Ben Shapiro's involved, he could have wrote Jeremy Boring's The Daily Wire. | ||
| He's the co-CEO. | ||
| Nah, they have to milk as much out of it as possible. | ||
| I don't know if you guys saw that tweet from Alex Jones. | ||
| He said that Israel is committing a robotic genocide. | ||
| Yes, it was a video of drones bombing civilians walking. | ||
| What it looks like, four dudes unarmed. | ||
| We gotta be careful on that one. | ||
| No one knows what it is. | ||
| I don't know what it is. | ||
| It's four men, younger looking men, walking. | ||
| You see it from the drone's perspective. | ||
| It's apparently leaked footage from a drone. | ||
| What's that? | ||
| First person view drones. | ||
| Yeah, I don't think it's it's not it's I don't believe the video footage is coming from a drone that actually like a Reaper drone or anything. | ||
| I think it's coming from observation or something. | ||
| Yeah, small quad rotor. | ||
| Well, they're walking along and then pop explosion. | ||
| There's nothing you can actually dissipated. | ||
| They're like disintegrated and then you see that there's but then you still see like one guy walking. | ||
| I don't know if they're picking on stragglers if they hit the group of them hit the group and one guy survives starts walking forward at a brisk pace and then you can actually see the missiles come down in there. | ||
| Whatever, Alex Jones, it broke him. | ||
| That was his moment where he was like, they've gone too far. | ||
| And I watch a video like that, and I certainly think it raises a probable cause question, degree of a preponderance of evidence to where we're like, This has to be reviewed. | ||
| There has to be a hearing. | ||
| However, I'm very careful in that I'm not going to watch a 30-second video and say I know what's happening. | ||
| I just can't do that. | ||
| But I can certainly take issue. | ||
| The dirty little secret is that the drone war has always been like this. | ||
| The drone war has literally almost to a T. Okay, the Soleimani strike, fine. | ||
| You know who's in the car, but that's a one-off. | ||
| There are so many times where things have happened, if you go look at the conduct of this, that U.S. | ||
| intelligence services, I'm talking about America here obviously, but now everybody's got drone tech, right? | ||
| So it used to just be that America would be doing this thing, going to Waziristan in Pakistan, or they'd go throughout Afghanistan, and oh we're gonna, you know, hit this place, we're gonna hit that place, and oh yeah, we see what's right there on the camera, those are the bad guys, let's go blow them up, but A lot of the times, either you don't know what it is, you don't know what the collateral is, you don't know what the situation is as much, and to your point, the probable cause, it's always been that way. | ||
| There's a great Ethan Hawke movie about it that not a lot of people have seen. | ||
| I'm just saying, I try to take the fence-sitter approach to this, and I think for Alex to come out- Tim Pool, a fence-sitter? | ||
| Oh, certainly. | ||
| Never, never! | ||
| So it's like, I immediately saw it, and I wanted to hit retweet and comment and be like, what the? | ||
| And so my thought was, We need, like, proper adjudication on what this is and why it happened. | ||
| And they, I think Israel should be, should be, like, we should, we should demand, especially with this, this minibus they just passed, massive funding for Israel, they should have to justify what that was, provide evidence, because it certainly does look like they just blew up a couple civilians. | ||
| That's the video that came out and that's the reporting we're seeing and they should answer for it. | ||
| The American people have every right to question Congress and have Congress explain where they're sending their money and what Congress is doing in support of other nations. | ||
| That being said, and I don't want to see U.S. | ||
| money going to anyone. | ||
| I don't want to see American dollars going to any foreign aid. | ||
| I think that it incentivizes bad behavior. | ||
| So full stop on that. | ||
| As for what Israel is doing or what that particular thing looked like, I don't know anything about the people that were in there, but that's just what war is. | ||
| And people that are saying, you know, talking about disproportionate response and stuff, the proportionate response is getting Hamas. | ||
| Like, that's the proportion. | ||
| Getting the people that carried out the attack. | ||
| You can dislike that and say that you don't want that, cool. | ||
| And that's a completely legitimate position to have. | ||
| But, people that say it's disproportionate because they've killed too many people? | ||
| That's not how military actions work. | ||
| And I'm of the mind of Scott Adams when it comes to this. | ||
| Israel's gonna do what Israel's gonna do. | ||
| Doesn't matter what I say. | ||
| Doesn't matter what any of us say. | ||
| And to be honest with you, the people that live in Gaza and in Israel are the only people that actually, it really matters to directly. | ||
| There is no such thing as a proportional response, that is a made-up term. | ||
| Yeah, that's what I'm saying. | ||
| Like people that talk about proportional response, a proportional response is make-believe. | ||
| What you do is you set a military goal and then you continue to Conduct military actions until you have achieved your military goal. | ||
| The military goal that the Israelis have set is the destruction of Hamas. | ||
| It doesn't matter if you like it, and I'm not saying you have to like it. | ||
| I'm talking about the reality on the ground there. | ||
| I just want to say, I think for all the people in the United States and those who would watch this show or not, we're all in agreement. | ||
| We shouldn't be sending money over there. | ||
| And if your justification is you think it's a genocide or whatever, I honestly don't care. | ||
| Because if the only thing we agree on is the U.S. | ||
| shouldn't be spending money on these foreign wars and funding anything, then we need not argue the morality of anything going on. | ||
| That's a waste of all of our time when you and I can say, oh, wait, before we argue, how about we just say Congress shouldn't send money to them or any other country? | ||
| You agree? | ||
| okay we're good we're good let's just we got their also reality somewhere | ||
| There are also tons of conflicts going on in the world at any given time. | ||
| There are conflicts going on in Southeast Asia, there are conflicts going on in Africa. | ||
| Azerbaijan and Armenia had… Azerbaijan ethnically cleansed like 100,000 Armenians last year from this one area of Artsakh and nobody even talked about it. | ||
| I do think with a lot of this, you also have to wonder that is there a financial incentive when the US government is sending that money abroad? | ||
| Because, and we know this from Ukraine, right? | ||
| How much of that money makes it back to those American congressmen, in many cases, or the companies and military financial instruments in which fund those congressmen? | ||
| And so you have to point out that this is exactly why there are certain conflicts that get so much attention inside the U.S. | ||
| and others that just aren't even talked about. | ||
| Let's jump to this story, which involves, I believe, it was a massive funding bill, it was a $1.2 trillion spending bill, of which, was it $4 billion that went to Israel? | ||
| I'm not entirely sure, I want to make sure we fact check this one. | ||
| But this is fascinating, because more Democrats voted for it than Republicans, and it has led to Marjorie Taylor Greene filing a motion to oust Speaker Mike Johnson over the deal. | ||
| A $1.2 trillion spending bill, they call the mini-bus, was released overnight in the wee hours of the morning that nobody gets to read, and Mike Johnson said, nah, it's fine. | ||
| It's fine. | ||
| Democrats, we like what you're doing, Mike Johnson. | ||
| And so Matt Gaetz is now saying, This may be the end of Republicans having control in Congress. | ||
| It may become a Democrat Speaker of the House after Marjorie Taylor Greene files to oust Mike Johnson. | ||
| I just love the complete and utter disarray and ineptitude of the Republican Party. | ||
| I don't blame Marjorie Taylor Greene at all. | ||
| Actually, I am fine with her filing to vacate Mike Johnson, and I agree with Matt Gaetz, but I just don't see If we're not, it's better that a Democrat actually is running the show than someone pretending to be a Republican. | ||
| At least we can then be the opposition party, right? | ||
| So the American people are starting to see now that the politicians in Washington, D.C. | ||
| represent other interests than their own. | ||
| Constituents that there are other things at play. | ||
| None of this was popular. | ||
| None of these things were popular to some of the direct groups that are getting money all the amount of earmarks the amount of pork in there. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| The locals will say. | ||
| Oh, yeah, my guy got this done. | ||
| My guy got that done. | ||
| John Fetterman's like sending money to a podcast or something. | ||
| But by and large, the huge amounts of spending? | ||
| No, it's not popular. | ||
| So why is it that then certain people just go along with it? | ||
| Well, that's why they're selected for leadership. | ||
| That's why those people are able to get into those positions. | ||
| And then you have people like the Freedom Caucus, you have people in the Senate like Mike Lee and others who are calling it out, Rand Paul for years and years and years, and nothing ever changes. | ||
| Because calling it out doesn't matter. | ||
| Because again, Just like I was saying that like, you know, arguing with, you know, far communists is never going to get you anywhere. | ||
| You have to use reciprocity. | ||
| That arguing with these guys, this establishment, saying that, oh, you know, this isn't good for financial sense for us. | ||
| This isn't good for the constituency. | ||
| This isn't good for the country. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| They're not there to represent you. | ||
| They're there to represent their special interests. | ||
| That's how they get leadership. | ||
| $4 billion in military aid sent to Israel in this bill. | ||
| How did we go from a bill that was going to send $14 million? | ||
| I believe it was, right? | ||
| Was it $14 million? | ||
| Or no, it was a billion. | ||
| No, wait, what was it? | ||
| I think it was always in the billions. | ||
| It was always in the billions. | ||
| The border bill, it was $14 billion? | ||
| Well, and the border is barely- Is that what it was though? | ||
| And the border itself is barely even funded in this bill. | ||
| And it definitely has closed the border. | ||
| But we had that bill that was mostly Ukraine money. | ||
| Yeah, it was like, was it 60 billion? | ||
| Oh, I see what you're saying. | ||
| The bill where, the McConnell one, where they were combining the border and- And now, after all of the bickering and fighting and refusal and everything, they just passed this stuff overnight. | ||
| There's no country anymore, man. | ||
| No, I think what's happening is that we have been in World War III since 9-11. | ||
| And it's a slow war. | ||
| They don't want to declare it. | ||
| They don't want to tell you. | ||
| But they're just at war. | ||
| And they are moving like they're at war. | ||
| And anyone that complains, they're just going to ignore it. | ||
| It's the looting phase. | ||
| We're in the looting phase. | ||
| We've been at war since forever. | ||
| I mean, the Korean War, Vietnam. | ||
| The Patriot Act turned us inward, though. | ||
| The Patriot Act did a lot. | ||
| But what did the Patriot Act do that you're concerned about? | ||
| Well, it made Americans fear that they could be squashed by their government if we speak out against them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
How? | |
| What specifically in the bill are you concerned about? | ||
| Like warrantless spying and things like that. | ||
| There's no warrantless spying. | ||
| There's lots of it. | ||
| They claimed they were never warrantless spying. | ||
| The issue is not, in my opinion, the Patriot Act. | ||
| There's a lot of bad things in it, of course. | ||
| The issue is that the United States has been at war constantly, non-stop. | ||
| We had Desert Storm in the early 90s. | ||
| It's not just 9-11. | ||
| They've been doing this endlessly. | ||
| 9-11 changed. | ||
| So much has changed after 9-11. | ||
| Homeland Security, all these departments... Homeland Security, for sure, through the Patriot Act. | ||
| Yeah, so much weird stuff got put into place and just pushed after that, in the two years after 9-11. | ||
| It's fair to say that 9-11 did change the world, because I think it's clear that it did. | ||
| But I think that the surveillance state that we live under now, it was baked in the cake with the information revolution. | ||
| Like, whether or not 9-11 happened, the iPhone was still going to come out. | ||
| And the iPhone, the smartphone, the computer and social media in everyone's pocket with a microphone and a camera on it, that's what changed the whole, that's what changed security state and it changed the military-industrial complex. | ||
| It made social media and information technology a part of the military-industrial complex. | ||
| So it made everybody a node essentially in that security apparatus. | ||
| Yeah, so what you're talking about is essentially a low-intensity conflict. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And it's, you know, this is a great example of So that's kind of what we talk about, because there's this question that we get into in the book about what would you call what we're experiencing right now? | ||
| And people have tried alternately to call it a cultural revolution. | ||
| They'll say, well, wait a minute, but it's not like China because people aren't like marching in the streets. | ||
| But just because it's not like China doesn't mean that it's not a cultural revolution. | ||
| Well, I think... Go ahead. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm leading up to it. | |
| And that's correct. | ||
| That's exactly right. | ||
| Because we can see elements. | ||
| We see the struggle sessions. | ||
| We can see all of these things going on that are very similar to what happened in the Chinese Cultural Revolution. | ||
| Pulling down of statues. | ||
| The iconoclasms. | ||
| It's similar to the Bolshevik Revolution, similar to the French Revolution. | ||
| We go through all of these and pull it out. | ||
| And what we've actually determined is that in the same way, and it's amazing that you mentioned technology because it's exactly right, the same way that technology has transformed kinetic warfare, It's also transformed these revolutions that we're in. | ||
| And so what we actually describe is that it's essentially it's a low intensity conflict. | ||
| It's an irregular revolution. | ||
| And within that irregular revolution, there are multiple micro revolutions going on all the time. | ||
| And micro revolutions are essentially miniature revolutions that can be like within you know 5GW irregular revolutions. | ||
| I can launch a micro revolution at Tim Pool because he says something at you know on one of the shows or a micro revolution can get launched against me because I give a speech at CPAC and suddenly it's this tactic that goes on and on and if the person falls for it if the person You know, breaks down, then they lose and they go out. | ||
| And so it's this idea that the new technology has created a new warfare. | ||
| This has already been turned into political, irregular, revolutionary warfare. | ||
| And that's what we're living through. | ||
| Because it's like, you can't just, like, you walk down the street, right? | ||
| And people are saying, we're not in a civil war. | ||
| We're not in a, you know, everything's fine. | ||
| You can kind of go around. | ||
| But if you, if you, what if you walked down the street? | ||
| And I do this a lot. | ||
| I was doing it on Periscope yesterday down at the Jefferson Memorial. | ||
| And I was just walking around going, hey, Trump won! | ||
| Hey, so Trump won, you know, and they say, oh, well, you know, it's starting to get dark. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| It is getting dark in America under this illegitimate president because Trump won. | ||
| And so point being is, and then you see the reactions from people, they get really upset. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And because you're not allowed to have that opinion. | ||
| So if you say an opinion, you're not allowed to say, well, what, what's the word for that? | ||
| And so the phraseology we're trying to come up with it here is that it's essentially an irregular revolution is a thought revolution and all these other things. | ||
| I used to call it a revolution of the mind, and I was very excited for it. | ||
| In 2006-7, I was like, we are entering a new era of digital technology communication, where presidents can communicate across the planet without secret service needed via video chat, and the whole world can watch them communicate. | ||
| Time for a revolution of thought! | ||
| But then I realized, that's what Mao said! | ||
| A revolution of the mind. | ||
| The exact same words as what I was spouting out. | ||
| My question is, the number of phrases that Americans utter that actually are directly translated to Chinese that were used in Communist China, if people knew how frequently they're saying that stuff, it would blow their mind. | ||
| There's one in the trailer for this Netflix thing where they're saying, which means, it essentially translates to, you know, the revolution is crimeless. | ||
| The revolution is sinless. | ||
| The revolution is perfect. | ||
| Is to say anything done in the name of the revolution is fine. | ||
| So you can kill people, you can expropriate, you can do anything you want. | ||
| You can arrest landlords. | ||
| You can do anything you want to people that are not members of the party. | ||
| And nowadays in the United States, we clearly have a the party and not the party. | ||
| And that's the way that it is. | ||
| The revolution will not be televised. | ||
| That phrase was always bounced around in the 90s, 2000s. | ||
| I was like, well, it's true. | ||
| The revolution's on the internet. | ||
| But it's not even about that. | ||
| Has anyone actually considered what that phrase meant when they were saying it? | ||
| The revolution will not be televised. | ||
| It means that they were committing acts of subversion against our institutions. | ||
| Do you think that there can be no revolution? | ||
| Because I think there is an attempt that some, many, many, like you're saying, sub-revolutions within this greater cultural revolution. | ||
| Can we resist it without another type of revolution? | ||
| Or do we have to create our own? | ||
| People have to be aware. | ||
| The problem that we're facing, the biggest problem that we have right now, is bad Democrats, bad liberals, right? | ||
| They think they're doing things that are liberal. | ||
| They think they're doing the nice thing, but the nice thing is not always the thing that lines up with liberalism. | ||
| And when you're a bad liberal, you're doing authoritarian things or supporting authoritarian ideas like censorship, like using the government against your political enemies, using Basically shock troops to terrify the population, like rioting in the streets and stuff like that. | ||
| That's all stuff that communists have used historically. | ||
| But the Democrats in the United States, first of all, aren't aware of communist tactics, which is why books like Jack's book are so important and it's important for people to read them. | ||
| And they're not aware of the fact that it's a subversive ideology. | ||
| Is going to hide. | ||
| It doesn't want to tell the average person that has a mortgage and two kids. | ||
| Hey, we're going to take away your property because that's what you have to do in communist. | ||
| You have to but they are you have to give up your property. | ||
| You have to arrest landlords. | ||
| Yeah, they're they were wrestling. | ||
| Yes, or we're at the arresting landlords phase of the Iraq revolution. | ||
| It's as you say, so it's, we go through the phases of a communist revolution and a communist pre-revolution too, because there's all this pre-revolutionary, revolution will not be televised stuff that goes on beforehand. | ||
| But there's always the inciting motion and then the seizing of whatever it is, the property, the life, etc. | ||
| You know, they block out your access to rights. | ||
| And then finally the purging happens. | ||
| So either the purging of the person, the arrest, execution, whatever it may be. | ||
| But the biggest thing that we want to get across in this book is that, and it's to your point, I think it will get there, is that the only answer to any of this, and whether you're a conservative or a moderate or whatever, a good liberal, is reciprocity. | ||
| And conservatives need the right, absolutely needs to learn the word reciprocity. | ||
| These people are coming for your homes. | ||
| Literally in in New York City. | ||
| They're coming for if you commit wrong think they'll come for your families They'll come they're certainly coming for your children I don't think anyone can argue with me at this point that they're coming for your children They will take your children away if you disagree with them on certain issues and so they desire to convince your kids that they might be Trans and then you say no you're not so that way they can say well guess what those are our kids now Right, and so if you're arguing with somebody who is that committed to their cause, and these causes of course attract people who are going to be the most loyal, because these causes, and we get into that in the book as well, like what causes a person to be this envious and angry? | ||
| It's because they're life's losers and they would not be able to have any success in life outside of the revolution. | ||
| Outside of the regime, outside of power. | ||
| That's why you see these like, look at the Biden administration. | ||
| Do you think any of those people, Corinne Jean-Pierre or was it Admiral Levin or anything, would actually be able to have a successful career in the private sector doing something in the real world? | ||
| Of course not. | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| That's why they need to be committed to the revolution. | ||
| Let's talk about the, uh, next phase of the revolution. | ||
| We have this tweet from Tyler, uh, Taylor, sorry, Taylor Hanson. | ||
| Can't make this up. | ||
| I always do that too. | ||
| On my flight home to DFW, to Salt Lake City, I have an illegal immigrant, a former soldier from Venezuela, seated next to me on American Air. | ||
| Every time I fly back to SLC, I have illegal immigrants on my flights. | ||
| Despite Governor Cox claiming it's not happening, Utah has become the home for over 88,000 illegal immigrants. | ||
| As you can see in the documents, he is prior military. | ||
| In another portion of the documents, it details how he came alone despite having a wife and two children. | ||
| Let's stress this. | ||
| In these documents, you can see it says that, have you received military training of any type? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And that he has a wife and kids, but he left them behind to come to the United States. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Why is a Venezuelan with military training leaving his family behind to come to the United States? | ||
| Because it's an invasion. | ||
| Because it's an invasion. | ||
| So keep in mind, right, if your revolution is predicated on a coalition of the fringes, and Steve Saylor came up with that quote, so the coalition of the fringes, then in order to stay in power, you must increase the fringes. | ||
| You must increase the destabilization. | ||
| You must increase the amount of people in a government, polity, country, society, whatever you want to call it, that Adhere or are at least dependent on you. | ||
| And so the ability to bring in as many people as possible across the border is not a feature. | ||
| It is not a, a, you know, unintended consequence and conservatives need to stop thinking that these are unintended consequences. | ||
| These are absolutely intended consequences. | ||
| These are deliberate. | ||
| The purpose of a system is what it does and it is not going to stop on its own. | ||
| You talk about insurgents, the age of insurgency warfare. | ||
| I mean, we just had, what, 10 million illegal immigrants come across the border? | ||
| Where are they? | ||
| Do they have secret groups that they're planning? | ||
| No, no, no, hold on. | ||
| 10 million is what we had several years ago. | ||
| What we know about? | ||
| I mean, how many? | ||
| And that's who we know, and then you have millions over the past few years under Biden. | ||
| And how many of those in Russia, in Moscow, how many shooters were there? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Six? | |
| I think there were, like, three. | ||
| Three? | ||
| Killed, what, 70-plus people? | ||
| It's hard to say at this point. | ||
| So there could have been more? | ||
| Of course it could. | ||
| Like you said, this is only talking about what we know. | ||
| And there's some that got away. | ||
| I mentioned I was talking to a normie not that long ago, like a couple days ago, and part of it was illegal immigration leading to terror attacks. | ||
| And whether or not that results in some kind of war where then there's no election. | ||
| I think it makes sense as a military commander to have insurgents in another country that then will, the sleeper cells will awaken and do the damage from within so that the country turns on its own people to try and defend themselves. | ||
| Causes mass chaos, you win without even having to attack. | ||
| I mean it's just the best tactic for an invading force, for an enemy force. | ||
| So that they wouldn't do it here is insane. | ||
| Obviously they're going to try and do it here. | ||
| And what's the very first thing that we do with the illegals when we bring them across. | ||
| And it's already been, I said this a while ago, it's already very clear. | ||
| And Taylor and many others have been down there documenting this. | ||
| We give them airplane tickets. | ||
| We give them tickets. | ||
| So they already know, right? | ||
| If you're going to put this into your TTPs. | ||
| So what happens when you cross the border? | ||
| Well, you know, you get sent to processing. | ||
| Then you have to do some like little woo woo hearing and oh, that's fine. | ||
| Oh, you just say the word asylum and you're good to go basically. | ||
| And then the very next thing that happens is you get handed an airplane ticket. | ||
| Now let's say you've got maybe five or six brothers along with you. | ||
| Oh, guess what? | ||
| Now you're on an airplane. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Now you have the ability. | ||
| And oh, look, it's, it's, we don't even need like Muhammad Atta and 9-11 hijackers did learned, you know, to sneak in the country. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You just walk across, you know, you know, the funny thing is so easy. | |
| The Patriot Act allows for the, I believe I could be wrong, indefinite detention of immigrants as they enter this country. | ||
| So the issue isn't the Patriot Act, actually right now it's that they are not using the Patriot Act for one of the purposes people were scared they were going to use it for, which is detaining immigrants as they enter the country. | ||
| Now, people were saying immigrants, Specifically, I'm talking about the illegal immigrants, of which millions have crossed in the country without being stopped. | ||
| And there is no mass enforcement against them. | ||
| There is no iron fist government being like, we're going to take action against these illegal immigrants. | ||
| None. | ||
| None at all. | ||
| And even Donald Trump is only saying, I'm gonna enforce the law. | ||
| It's like, oh, that's all he's gonna do. | ||
| He did say the most massive deportation operation. | ||
| Yeah, but all he's not like all that saying is like I am going to engage in a large law enforcement operation to enforce the law like you can say whatever you want. | ||
| If Trump came out and said something substantially more egregious than I think there'd be grounds to criticize him. | ||
| I think what we end up seeing with a lot of conservatives is They will take a moderate approach to their beliefs, thinking it will win them more friends, and then the Democrats will argue the fringe far left, creating the middle ground of the left. | ||
| So the compromise between a moderate and a leftist is going to be a left position. | ||
| If the right is coming out and saying, at the bare minimum, we will just start enforcing the law, the left will then say, well, let's compromise on that then. | ||
| And then the compromise with Democrats in Congress is going to end up being like, we deport only half. | ||
| The main thing that we need to get across to conservatives is the idea of reciprocity. | ||
| And reciprocity means that anything they do to us, and you see what happens when they come for us, the doxxing, the swatting that we've both experienced. | ||
| Um, and the, the harassment, the censorship, the cancel culture, it's not going to just stop on its own. | ||
| And so these, you think people say, and to your point, right? | ||
| You know, we think I say, oh, well, we're going to compromise. | ||
| We're going to do this. | ||
| This is already the plan that they want that they're putting in place. | ||
| It's, it's anarcho-tyranny. | ||
| The reason that the Patriot Act is not. | ||
| Applied to select groups and is applied to others. | ||
| Yeah, they're going to use it to look at your text messages, but they don't care about it. | ||
| How is it that in New York, they they're arresting the homeowner? | ||
| How is that? | ||
| How is it that we've come to this point? | ||
| And is it just a fringe one-off thing? | ||
| Are we really at the arresting landlords phase? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, absolutely. | |
| Of course, every single time in this book, every single communist revolution comes from landlords. | ||
| Do you really believe that in New York City? | ||
| In 100% of circumstances, when a squatter is at a house, the NYPD will show up and arrest the homeowner, just like they did. | ||
| Or do you think that those cops were just communists themselves? | ||
| Well, I think she broke a law by changing the locks when they said, don't change the locks. | ||
| Well, don't do it. | ||
| And she was like, okay, I'm gonna go do it anyway. | ||
| That's not my question. | ||
| My question is, let's say we replicate that scenario in New York 100 times. | ||
| Squatters go into a house, homeowner shows up, squatters can't prove anything, cops then arrest the homeowner. | ||
| Does that happen in the majority of cases, do you think, right now? | ||
| I think over 50%, yes. | ||
| My point is, we're seeing a system. | ||
| We're seeing a systemized playbook that's laid out. | ||
| In New York City, there are a lot of actual open communists in city government. | ||
| They're community organizers and they're in city government. | ||
| That is going to spread. | ||
| This is not, this does not stop. | ||
| It's just too Blackpill for me, man. | ||
| Brother, it is happening, homeboy! | ||
| San Francisco will get it, San Francisco gets it next, then it'll spread to like Madison, Wisconsin or something, Chicago. | ||
| Ian, this is so dark. | ||
| But you think Madison, Wisconsin- Ian, it's happening! | ||
| Alright, alright, alright. | ||
| You think Madison, Wisconsin police officers, the majority of the time, because it has to be the majority, I mean 50% might even be too light, like this has to be like typical enforcement. | ||
| You're saying even in Madison, Wisconsin, Midwest, Homeowner walks up to the house of squatter there. | ||
| They call the cops. | ||
| The cops then say, you can't do anything about it. | ||
| We'll arrest you if you do. | ||
| And then it results in homeowners getting arrested. | ||
| You think that'll happen in Madison? | ||
| I don't, well, keep in mind, it's not the police saying it. | ||
| It's, it's, it's, it's what Phil's saying. | ||
| It's, it's the city government is enforcing, requiring it to be enforced. | ||
| I'm specifically asking about the police. | ||
| Because if the cops show up and say, I ain't enforcing that law. | ||
| Ain't no law getting enforced. | ||
| I think it will. In western Maryland we have we have second amendment sanctuaries | ||
| where the sheriff's offices have outright said we will not enforce state or federal gun laws in | ||
| Maryland. I think sheriffs are different but you don't have you don't have no sheriffs are typically | ||
| in elected positions. | ||
| Well, sheriffs are always elected, the constitutional law enforcement. | ||
| But in major cities, you don't really have sheriffs that way. | ||
| You have that in rural counties, but in major cities, it's usually police force where police are their employees of the city government. | ||
| Do you think that comes to Omaha? | ||
| Eventually. | ||
| I don't think any of this stuff comes fast, first of all, but it comes to urban areas. | ||
| So it probably doesn't get into small towns and into rural areas. | ||
| They don't have police departments. | ||
| The whole notion, the kind of impulse, the socialist impulse that you're seeing in cities all over the country. | ||
| And it's not just happening in the United States. | ||
| This is something that's happening. | ||
| It's definitely happening in Canada. | ||
| You can look at the laws that they're passing and the fact that they have like three openly communist parties in Canada. | ||
| In labor in the UK, there's There's tons of communists. | ||
| There's Ash Sarkar, who's an open communist. | ||
| I don't think she's actually an MP, but she's at least talking head anyways. | ||
| The point is, the socialist impulse, it's experiencing a significant upswing, and you see a lot of it in existing governments at city levels. | ||
| It's probably not significant at state levels, but I mean, just look at AOC. | ||
| The squad are all If they're not actually members of the DSA, at least they caucus with them and they're friendly with them and sympathetic to all those ideas, those are the democratic socialists. | ||
| These concepts have a goal. | ||
| These political ideas have a goal in mind. | ||
| And it doesn't matter if it's a step today or if it's two steps today. | ||
| The point is, it's coming. | ||
| I wrote, I say this frequently, I wrote a record called The Fall of Ideals in 2006 because I smelled this stuff coming. | ||
| And every single thing that I've worried about since in 2012, | ||
| I released a record called A War You Cannot Win that was like on the cover, | ||
| like was to cross AR-15s because there's all kinds of like American Revolution | ||
| or American Second Revolution imagery in it. | ||
| In 2010, I released a record called For We Are Many and it literally, the cover of it was NPCs. | ||
| It wasn't the same idea or it wasn't the same thing you see now, but it was the idea of some people | ||
| actually awake to these ideas and some people aren't this this stuff is called | ||
| That was called For We Are Many. | ||
| But this stuff has been coming for a long time and I've been screaming about it as much as I can, but these things don't stop unless they're stopped. | ||
| Communists do not just let you live. | ||
| That's where I come in. | ||
| We're not bystanders in this. | ||
| We are leaders. | ||
| Yeah, so there's the faces and stuff and there's a couple people that kind of have the idea and then there's other people that are just kind of NPCs but that came out in 2010. | ||
| These ideas I've been seeing coming and I've seen this stuff for a long time now. | ||
| I'm not a bystander. | ||
| I'm commanding and communicating with people and changing people on the daily and I don't want people to lose hope and if people really truly believe a communist thing is inevitable they'll give up. | ||
| It's about you have to make people aware. | ||
| People still think I'm crazy. | ||
| They think it'll never come for them. | ||
| Oh, it's just happening. | ||
| It's happened to that, you know, that guy down the street. | ||
| Oh, it's just New York. | ||
| It's just this landowner. | ||
| Oh, because she didn't, you know, follow the rule correctly. | ||
| But no, this movement is based in envy and greed. | ||
| And when you Use those sins and those vices and tell people that it is good to be envious of other people's property and other people's things and other people's success and in fact those people are your oppressors and you must rise up and tear them down and tear away the things that they have. | ||
| It will always end like this. | ||
| We actually had a police officer approach one of our staff requesting to come on the show and talk about the issue of policing, I guess. | ||
| And I don't know in what context. | ||
| Like a currently serving? | ||
| A currently serving, yeah. | ||
| Like a local or? | ||
| Uh, I don't want to say too much just yet for the, for the officer's privacy, but more, I believe, more than just like patrol, like a higher ranking, uh, maybe a sergeant or something. | ||
| Is it like a, like a comms person who wants to come on? | ||
| No. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| No, like, yeah, actual, and more than just like beat cop, like... | ||
| So I don't know to what extent or whatever, but I said absolutely 100%. | ||
| Because the question is right now, you have a lot of people who have maintained this back-to-blue-no-matter-who mentality, where you have CBP willfully and knowingly trafficking children into sex slavery, and you still have conservatives saying, I don't blame them for it! | ||
| It's not their fault! | ||
| It's Biden's fault! | ||
| I'm like, the guy who took the child, it's his fault. | ||
| Nope! | ||
| And I'm like, well, okay, I guess. | ||
| I don't agree. | ||
| You have people who right now don't care that when it comes down to it at CBP The individuals are the ones committing this action. | ||
| Like, I get Joe Biden, yeah, bad guy, hold him responsible, but you gotta hold the individuals who do it responsible, too. | ||
| Imagine, like, a guy orchestrates a bank robbery, and he hires a bunch of, you know, gangsters to help him, and they're like, no, no, no, no, no, don't arrest the gangsters, they were just hired, they didn't know what they were doing. | ||
| They just went along with committing the crime, but it's the guy who planned it, that's who's gotta go to jail. | ||
| Well, of course, they all do. | ||
| But unfortunately there are still many of those traditional conservatives who have long been back to blue no matter who. | ||
| It's like, well, you know, you're going to end up with a communist wearing a badge and you're going to say, I back you. | ||
| And he's going to be like, he's going to do the red salute. | ||
| You're going to go, don't know what that's all about. | ||
| And then he's going to say, come with me to the Gulag. | ||
| And you go, whatever you say, officer. | ||
| Speaking of gulags, in your new book, Inhumans, do you get into the stuff that was going on in gulags, or are you more talking about the conditions that led up to putting people in gulags, or what? | ||
| It is more focused, because look, we're not going to reinvent the wheel. | ||
| Gulag Archipelago is out there, Solzhenitsyn is out there, there's been so many books written about the bad conditions of communism. | ||
| We do touch on Basically all of the facts, but what we're really interested in in on humans is this idea that how did these things get started? | ||
| And at what point can you stop them? | ||
| And at because I feel like that's kind of what we all sort of are talking around that we know it's going to get bad if this thing starts. | ||
| Let me let me at what point can you actually put the brakes on it and do things that meaningfully have a an effect in the real world as opposed to just like, you know, being outraged about Let me ask you guys a question. | ||
| Can police officers enforce the law selectively? | ||
| Personally, I think that they should be able to because I think... That's not an answer. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Can they? | |
| Well, of course they can. | ||
| You can walk off the force. | ||
| So, you have never encountered a situation where you've done something wrong and a cop said, don't worry about it? | ||
| Yeah, that's what I said. | ||
| They can. | ||
| They have the option. | ||
| They can and they do all day, every single day. | ||
| Can they? | ||
| Yes, obviously. | ||
| We know that people are not out. | ||
| If you're going over 35, you're at 36, you're not getting pulled over if you're in a 30. | ||
| It is 100% selective enforcement. | ||
| Tickets in Chicago... I haven't gotten one in 20 years. | ||
| Actually, when you speed, it says what... to what degree we're speeding. | ||
| It says 0-5, 5-10, 10-20, and they checkmark... That's funny, there's zeros on there. | ||
| It is. | ||
| That's... I was speeding 0 miles over. | ||
| That means I wasn't speeding. | ||
| But it's zero through five, I guess the idea is. | ||
| But they absolutely, if you're one mile over, they can, but they never do. | ||
| It's weird to me that people hold this belief that police cannot selectively enforce the law, when they quite literally have to selectively enforce the law. | ||
| If you are speeding seven miles over the limit, and a cop says, I'm gonna pull that guy over, and that guy goes, boom, and zooms past you at a hundred, he leaves you behind. | ||
| He doesn't say, nope, nope, nope. | ||
| I'll call that one in, but I'm enforcing the law here. | ||
| No, he leaves. | ||
| And you're off the hook. | ||
| And there's also the issuing of warnings. | ||
| There's, in my life growing up in, having lived, and I shouldn't say growing up, but having lived in several major cities, I think it's an absurdity, and I don't know where this idea comes from, that police don't selectively enforce law, when it's quite literally, police discretion is a requirement of the job. | ||
| If they're wasting time and resources by going after low-level crime, they could get yelled at. | ||
| If it's minor, and then the community will yell and complain. | ||
| There are laws like, we famously joked about the blue law in Florida, which claimed women weren't allowed to skydive on Sundays. | ||
| Not a single police officer would ever respond to that call. | ||
| Growing up in Chicago, a homeless guy was attacking my family's business, banging on the windows, trying to break it, and the police did not show up for it. | ||
| It is typical and normal that police selectively choose to enforce law. | ||
| The problem then becomes, why do we get these stories where a cop, the one I like to bring up, which is a very egregious example, The officer who pulled over the woman in New Jersey because she had her gun with her for what she has legally permitted, he could have just said, ma'am, I'm going to drive you around this cloverleaf, we're going to send you back to Philly, you can't have a gun in the state. | ||
| No, instead he said, 60-year-old woman should go to prison for the rest of her life. | ||
| He chose to do that. | ||
| The idea, of course there's selective enforcement and people don't realize how much discretion is actually built into our laws intentionally. | ||
| The term, and I think we talked about this on the show before, but the term a reasonable person is all over You know, jurisprudence, you know, or, or, you know, past decisions and what would a reasonable person say and what would a reasonable person and reasonable person is a little arbitrary. | ||
| But if you are a society that shares the same values as in liberal values, things like, you know, you're innocent until proven guilty. | ||
| We don't use the government to punish our political opponents, etc. | ||
| Then you can kind of rely on your fellow citizens to say, okay, This is reasonable. | ||
| This is not reasonable. | ||
| And you can make those kind of assumptions. | ||
| But nowadays, because we're dealing with what essentially amount to counter-enlightenment philosophies, philosophies that don't believe that you can actually contact reality, that you can use words to shape reality, those philosophies are counter-enlightenment because they reject reason, they reject the idea that you can know reality, they embrace subjectivity, And when you embrace subjectivity, it allows you to play all sorts of linguistic games and say, well, I see things this way, and I see things that way, and what you believe doesn't matter because of my lived experience. | ||
| Those concepts that we hear, like lived experience, those things come from the fact that the philosophy that they're basing their ideas on are counter to the Enlightenment. | ||
| And we have a society based on the enlightened because you generally can rely on the fact that you interact with reality and even if had one well yes truth true you know but that kind of stuff is important and and without people that agree on reality Let's say that you were a subversive and you wanted to break up a good society like that, or because you were envious of the people in that society, what would you do? | ||
| You would begin the mass importation of people from countries who don't agree or adhere to those beliefs. | ||
| From people who never went through an Enlightenment period, or a Renaissance, or any of these things. | ||
| people who have a very different relationship with between the people in the government | ||
| that I've been thinking about it from that perspective. | ||
| And so what you would do then is you would is not only would you bring people in like | ||
| that who have different ideas, but also you would fill the country with people who are | ||
| essentially strangers. | ||
| And in doing so, you're number one, you're weakening the purchasing power and the the | ||
| wage earning power of anyone in the working class. | ||
| You're putting massive pressure on the education system, massive pressure on the health care | ||
| system, massive pressure on the housing system. | ||
| And you're breaking down the bonds of neighborhoods. | ||
| It's, it's not in people like, Oh, how dare you say that? | ||
| That's like racist or whatever. | ||
| It's like, it's not racist to say, I want to live in a neighborhood of people who think like me and talk like me and are like me, right? | ||
| That's just a normal neighborhood. | ||
| But this idea that we're going to flood the country with people that are just totally different and all of it's going to happen millions of people spilling across the border in a very short span into these cities into these towns. | ||
| You know, this is how you get like and they send so many of them to Midwest by the way, they send so many quote-unquote refugees from all of these different conflicts around to The the Midwest and it's like why why why do we need to do this stuff? | ||
| Why couldn't there is this foreign policy? | ||
| No, it's a systemic plan to break down the United States and turn us into this like consumer market. | ||
| There's another I like to do this thought experiment that I have some questions for you Jack and for whoever else the idea is You're in the middle of the woods. | ||
| You're lost. | ||
| You've been there for a week. | ||
| You don't know which way is up. | ||
| You're hundreds or thousands of miles from civilization. | ||
| You've retained a small amount of food and water that you carry on your waist. | ||
| You have a rifle with, uh, let's just say you've got a 5.56 and you've got ten rounds remaining. | ||
| And you don't know where you are, and you don't know when you will find a town. | ||
| And let's just say it's post-apocalyptic. | ||
| Let's just say that civilization is mostly gone and you're a wanderer. | ||
| And as you're walking through the woods wondering where you're going to go or how you're going to get to safety, in the distance you see a man who looks just like you. | ||
| He also has the exact same rifle. | ||
| He also appears to have very similar food hanging from his belt and water. | ||
| And as you're lost in the woods and starving, or I should say with limited resources, you see this person. | ||
| Let's say they're a hundred yards away. | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| Seek cover. | ||
| Concealment. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| You, yeah, you'd want to hide out and make sure the dude isn't, you know, a threat. | ||
| Alright, so you duck behind a tree? | ||
| Find some kind of cover. | ||
| Find some kind of cover. | ||
| So let's say you take, there's a knocked over tree, you crouch down behind it. | ||
| He does the exact same thing. | ||
| He's staring at you now. | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| Honestly, I mean, I never really thought of it, to be honest. | ||
| At some point you have to try to make contact. | ||
| So you yell to him? | ||
| I call out to him, see if he speaks the same language. | ||
| He doesn't. | ||
| He yells back something incomprehensible. | ||
| Totally incomprehensible. | ||
| Completely. | ||
| You don't know what language it is. | ||
| 90 degrees. | ||
| What you're doing here is you're getting into this concept of reciprocity. | ||
| So if I've approached this person, I go to hide, they go to hide, that shows potentially they're not willing to be aggressive just yet. | ||
| They're not overtly aggressive. | ||
| So you yell out, Hello there, or something. | ||
| with language, even if it's not, you know, a verbal, you know, a verbal attempt at communication, | ||
| they respond to verbal attempt at communication. | ||
| That's, this is, this is how you build a normal relationship. | ||
| So you yell out, hello there, or something. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He yells back, Zavant, Zavant! | |
| Excuse me, are you going to be Zavant and Bo and me What do you do next? | ||
| You're crouched behind. | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| Honest question, like, what would you guys do in this scenario now? | ||
| Well, you would see, number one, if there's a guy who has anything you need, second, you would... You're post-apocalyptic, break contact. | ||
| If you're post-apocalyptic, break contact and move away, because the worst thing you can do is get into a situation where you get into a gunfight. | ||
| You either try to trade, or, if possible, Um, that's number one. | ||
| If not possible, then you look for break contact or you see if that person, you know, if you can overpower them. | ||
| And so the point of this is the thought experiment is to get an individual to consider. | ||
| To actually think about what they would do in this scenario because there's no right answer at all. | ||
| There is no planned outcome for what this story is that I present to you. | ||
| I'm not here trying to trick you into thinking something's gonna happen. | ||
| I'm literally asking to consider what you would do if you encountered the scenario. | ||
| It's entirely possible this individual is thinking... | ||
| If I don't get more food, I will die. I don't know this guy. | ||
| I can't talk to him. He might try and steal from me. | ||
| So there's a million different variables. I mean, you might... | ||
| I've had so many people, and typically liberals, like whenever I ask a liberalist question, they go... I | ||
| would raise my hands and start walking towards them and I go, | ||
| God! No, no question! | ||
| I'm like, bang, you're dead. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He walks over and he takes your gun, he takes your ammo, he takes your food, and then he walks away. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| And they're like, why would he do that? | ||
| I'm like, because he doesn't want to die, he doesn't know you, he can't communicate with you, and you're armed. | ||
| Well, I put my gun down. | ||
| Bang, you're dead. | ||
| Oh, you put your gun down. | ||
| Okay, now he walks up, takes all your food, takes your gun, takes your ammo, and leaves you there to die. | ||
| You mean his gun? | ||
| You mean his gun. | ||
| Yeah, his gun. | ||
| Or, it's entirely possible, you walk up with your hands up, and he slings his gun back, keeps his hands up, you walk over, you shake hands, and then you hug, finding somebody, it's entirely possible, and then you try and communicate, figure out what language it is, and maybe you can work together to survive. | ||
| We don't know what happens. | ||
| But the reality is, if you don't know, The challenge is, you bring it up, reciprocity is an excellent point. | ||
| If there's any word that I need to introduce to conservatives, to moderates, to libertarians, to centrists, to all of these people, it is reciprocity. | ||
| That is the only way that we can get out of this. | ||
| When you take cover, this person now perceives a level of aggression. | ||
| Why are you taking cover? | ||
| That's a defensive stance. | ||
| Combat has been engaged. | ||
| What do they do? | ||
| They say, I'll take cover as well. | ||
| And so, it's very possible that, unintentionally, this drives Escalation into a shootout. | ||
| It might. | ||
| Because now, that guy takes cover too, and you can see he's got a gun, and you're thinking, like, if I try to get up and run for it, he might shoot me in the back. | ||
| So what do you do? | ||
| Well, I mean, you do. | ||
| It's not easy. | ||
| I would personally, like, if you've got a guy that's got a gun, like, in my opinion, you break contact and you do your best to get away from them without, you know, you don't turn around, you don't take your eyes off and you move away because the risk of an engagement is far greater than the reward of maybe a sandwich the guy might have. | ||
| He didn't say you were starving. | ||
| You said starving. | ||
| But I meant like, you're hungry, you have limited provisions, it's post-apocalyptic, you know, you're wandering through the forest. | ||
| The point is, like in modern civilization, this is not something we need to consider. | ||
| If you're walking through the woods and you're lost in the woods, you say, help me, please! | ||
| And the guy's gonna go, who's there? | ||
| And you're gonna say, I've been lost in the woods. | ||
| Oh my, let me call the 9-1-1. | ||
| That's actually where Ian was for a couple, when he was off the show. | ||
| He was just wandering through the woods. | ||
| No, he found his way out. | ||
| He followed the moss and the trees to find his way north. | ||
| There's a trail of bodies that was found. | ||
| If you're post-apocalyptic, you know, cuts kill you. | ||
| Cuts get infections and you die. | ||
| Dysentery, eating the wrong mushroom. | ||
| So like if you talk to anybody that's like survival stuff or whatever, if you're in a situation where you don't know someone and there's a possibility of some kind of engagement, you avoid the hell out of the engagement because you don't want to get into a fight. | ||
| Best way you could have a bad situation is not be there in the first place. | ||
| Let me just present it this way. | ||
| Uh, you guys, question for all of you. | ||
| How many people do you know that you would consider friends who at one point betrayed you in some very serious way? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh yeah. | |
| That I currently consider friends. | ||
| Let me say, have you in your life at any point had someone you consider to be a close friend betray you in a serious way? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| You've never had that happen. | ||
| You've never been betrayed. | ||
| You've also never been arrested. | ||
| So, you know, very sheltered Ian, I guess. | ||
| Lived a good life. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, yeah, I don't think I really... I certainly have. | |
| And considering that there are people that you know, that you trusted, who betrayed you in some very serious way, how could you even begin to trust a stranger who shakes your hand? | ||
| Well, there's a story that this is how the handshake was, I'm sure you know. | ||
| No weapon. | ||
| That came out of, that if I'm going to shake your hand, it's actually so that I can show my forearm and show that I don't have some kind of weapon there. | ||
| So you're like, shake the rope so you see there's no metal in there? | ||
| Because that's your dominant hand, that's like your fighting hand, so the idea is that. | ||
| And even the older handshake was like, I'm actually going to grip the forearm. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Like feel for a blade in their sleeve and stuff like that. | ||
| You know, earlier you were talking about what people would do to disrupt. | ||
| This is a little bit of an aside, but it's tagging on to what you were saying. | ||
| Before we go into this cool metaphor about being in the woods, which I like, is that how would you disrupt a society of reason? | ||
| And you were saying you bring in people that don't speak the language, that override the economics. | ||
| But another way to disrupt a system of reason is to tell them they're all going to fail, to make them think they're all going to lose, to say it's just going to get worse, and then those people give up. | ||
| So I don't want to become that guy, and I don't want any of us to become that guy. | ||
| Or they abandon ship. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Every man for himself. | ||
| You keep saying over and over again, it's impossible. | ||
| We can't win. | ||
| And then people say, well, then I better just abandon and only do my thing. | ||
| Like I'm going to go dig a hole and go hide in it because we can't win. | ||
| If we build networks, build community, build physical locations. | ||
| That's why we're like with Casper. | ||
| We're like, we got to have this physical location. | ||
| We got to do live shows. | ||
| We have to do monthly events. | ||
| We have to do the Saturday morning events. | ||
| We need people to come together so they do not feel hopeless. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yeah, this is this is this is actually one of the key. | ||
| So we talk about we have a whole section on in there called that we call the great men of history and you know, there's there's like some very spicy stuff that we get into with we get into Julius Caesar and Francisco Franco and get into Rengal and and but then we even get into in the modern times like Elon Musk and and really just men of means, right? | ||
| So you re-infiltrate the institutions, or like what Elon did with Twitter, | ||
| which is obviously in a regular counter revolution, if you will, in purchasing it. | ||
| And then he started to label, remember he started labeling journalists | ||
| and NPR and NPR rage quits, right? | ||
| So these are all counter revolutionary actions. | ||
| But the idea that men of means, men of will, forming networks, building new institutions, | ||
| counter institutions, these are all absolutely clear because then you will find those like-minded individuals. | ||
| And it's those small groups of people, It's been predominantly men, but we'll see maybe we can lessen with ladies in That have driven history that have absolutely these were strong men Surrounded by strong men that is always how you end these things you either nip it in the bud so you don't have to get to the point where and I don't think we will will be in like a | ||
| uh civil war type situation it's going to continue to be this low-level irregular revolution that continues yes there'll be skirmishes um but it's it's going to be these these multiple micro revolutions that are conducted again and again and again and the only way to fight it back against them is to have these networks and your counter institutions built up The only way. | ||
| Parallel Economy, download Publix. | ||
| Yeah, funny TV shows for kids. | ||
| That's why there's this great philosophy I was talking to a friend of mine in Miami. | ||
| You mean like the Brave Books TV show? | ||
| Yeah, like Brave Books. | ||
| You find a bunch of people that have similar political beliefs. | ||
| You come together and then you start doing things that are completely apolitical because with these people that you know you can trust and you build like music with just for the kids can love. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You make TV shows. | |
| This is a 20 for me. | ||
| You grow crops, you do gardening, you do all sorts of cool stuff. | ||
| Because you know that as those things become popular with the apolitical people, they're going to look to, who built that? | ||
| I want to be like that guy. | ||
| I want to adopt his beliefs. | ||
| And here's the best part. | ||
| With the likes of Public Square. | ||
| Did you know that there's going to be, and probably already are, a lot of businesses signing up for Public Square, not because they care about America, but because they see a path to get rich. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Critical mass. | ||
| That's critical mass. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| When the grifters are like, yes, I love America! | ||
| America is great! | ||
| Buy my cheese! | ||
| Welcome! | ||
| Thank you! | ||
| Patriot cheese. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And so I see all these businesses that start signing up. | ||
| We want to get to the point, and I think we're there because we talked about this a couple weeks ago with these TikTokers who keep making these videos where Biden is bad. | ||
| They go, my life is miserable. | ||
| I can't afford rent. | ||
| It's not fair. | ||
| Biden ruined the economy. | ||
| Boom, four million views. | ||
| Then you find out this woman's married, has eight cats and lives in a two bedroom apartment. | ||
| And you're like, huh? | ||
| And she just went on vacation. | ||
| You're like, that's not true. | ||
| But These grifters realize, if I'm on the side, if I'm on this side, I'll get views, I'll get traffic. | ||
| What that does is, that's the critical mass where apolitical grifters are espousing your message for you for nefarious reasons, but that means the tide has shifted where the NPCs have abandoned wokeness as a means to make money. | ||
| So what you're talking about is, and we talk about this as well, it's the viable competing vision. | ||
| Communism is very good at this, by the way. | ||
| Communism, Phil, you know. | ||
| Communism portrays the utopia. | ||
| They talk about how everything's free, how everything's going to be. | ||
| They're obsessed with this. | ||
| It's a really good marketing pitch. | ||
| But that's, of course, all it is. | ||
| It is a marketing pitch. | ||
| They don't actually believe it. | ||
| And so I cringe every time I see conservatives and Like the IDW types and the center left and classic liberals, you know, kind of arguing, well, this is why this won't work. | ||
| And this is what they don't actually believe it. | ||
| All right. | ||
| They just want to get to the killing, robbing and stealing part. | ||
| You know, they want to just lock up landlords and go after Donald Trump and all these different things. | ||
| Well, we haven't really talked about Trump like at all tonight, but. | ||
| Anyway, exactly. | ||
| And the idea that they believe in their utopia is silly too, but at the same time, you can't just sit there and say, oh, their utopia will never work if you're not actually describing your own vision. | ||
| And when we talk about the counter vision, you've got to overshadow what they're talking about. | ||
| You've got to talk. | ||
| It's got to be political. | ||
| It's got to be social. | ||
| That's where the music comes in. | ||
| It's got to be economic. | ||
| It's got to be media based where everybody can participate in this thing. | ||
| And we are starting to see that we really are starting to see that with all of these different franchises, but I think the right or whatever you want to call the competition to this this irregular revolution is we need to depict that vision much much better. | ||
| It's actually something that I've sent I've sent this message to the Trump campaign and said that, you know, I think that at this point, you know how he ends his rallies and it's sort of that like downward and they have like the cinematic music and the violins come out and it's really sad. | ||
| I think that made sense during the primary, but I think they should start shifting it to an uplifting message at the end that ties in with this. | ||

What we need are Jimbros. | |
| Go on. | ||
| Lots of Jimbros. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Continue. | ||
| I'll tell you why. | ||
| Get checked. | ||
| Get, well, no, no, no, no. | ||
| You should get jacked, but the reason why we need gym bros is that when you get, what does the left say? | ||
| On the right, you have this work hard, clean your room bucko, lift the heaviest thing. | ||
| The left goes, no, no, don't do none of that. | ||
| Jerk off, play video games, eat ice cream. | ||
| And what's the short-term easy thing? | ||
| However, there's a lot of people, men and women, who do these things, they're unhappy. | ||
| What we need is that enthusiastic trope of the gym bro who goes up to that scrawny guy and goes, looking good dude, you're killing it. | ||
| Come hang out with me and the boys and we're going to get you ripped. | ||
| I recommend one of my favorite bits of fiction is Mob Psycho 100. | ||
| Have you guys ever heard of that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| It was a web comic. | ||
| They made an anime, but the main character is this scrawny, weak little kid, but he's got tremendous psychic powers. | ||
| And so he joins the body transformation club and they're all super ripped. | ||
| And all these guys who are massive and like really strong are rooting and cheering for him. | ||
| They're like, wow, you did it. | ||
| You did a push up. | ||
| They're like, yeah. | ||
| And they're high fiving him. | ||
| And I'm like, that's what I'm talking about. | ||
| When there's some dude who feels weak and inadequate, you get those dudes who look It's not just about guys. | ||
| You get people who are leaders, who are successful, who have accomplished it, who tell you, my friend, you're going to be cool like us, you're going to be strong, and you're going to be beautiful, and we're going to help you do it, and we're going to cheer you on the whole way. | ||
| That's so important. | ||
| The cheer you on part is so important. | ||
| Motivating. | ||
| Wasn't it? | ||
| Motivating. | ||
| Who do you want to hang out with? | ||
| The left, they're mean all the time. | ||
| You can't make jokes. | ||
| You can't have fun. | ||
| They say it's fine that you're obese and don't be mad about it, but people are still unhappy when they're like, I wish I wasn't like this. | ||
| If you got the dude who was like really, really fit. | ||
| What I always tell people is, I can't speak for gyms, and I use the gym bro as a generic trope, but I can tell you in skateboarding, typically if you don't skate and you go to a skate park, and you see a group of kids hanging out, and you want to skate, and let's say you're massive, you're fat, you're fat, you're out of shape, you walk up and say, guys, I decided to change my life, I bought a skateboard. | ||
| They're going to be like, bro, let me show you everything I can teach. | ||
| They're going to high five you. | ||
| They're going to cheer for you. | ||
| You're going to be, you're going to be charioted around. | ||
| They're going to be like, this is what we're talking about. | ||
| Dudes love to share their skills and knowledge. | ||
| That's this is totally the one of us meme. | ||
| One of us, one of us. | ||
| One of us. | ||
| That is totally what dudes do. | ||
| When you've got dudes hanging out that have the same kind of goals, going to the gym, being the best they can, PRs, which is another wonderful thing about going to the gym. | ||
| PRs, right? | ||
| Personal records. | ||
| It's personal. | ||
| It's all about beating the last time you were there. | ||
| Being the best you. | ||
| Not about competing with the guys that are stronger than you or competing with the guys that are weaker than you. | ||
| You're competing with yourself. | ||
| And everybody's going to cheer you on when you're going, you're going for. | ||
| I always love music and acting because of that, because the better you are, | ||
| the better the people around you become. | ||
| And so really you're not, you're going to look like probably the weakest link | ||
| of this amazing band or scene, because you're so, | ||
| you're listening and you're empowering the people around you. | ||
| So it's not even a competition, but it's like a community building experience. | ||
| I can only assume for gyms, cause I'm not a gym bro, | ||
| but I can say for skateboarding, and I assume it's the same. | ||
| If you are a newcomer, you can lift the smallest weight, | ||
| They're going to be cheering for you. | ||
| They're going to be high-fiving you. | ||
| Sean Strickland literally just posted something about this the other day where, I'll have to paraphrase it because I'm going to have to pull it over right now, but he said something about how one of his favorite days when he's in the gym is when he sees somebody walking and he can tell it's their first day in the gym. | ||
| And he's like, I look for that guy and I love that guy because you know what? | ||
| We were all that guy one day. | ||
| This could be you. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| You've never worked out, you want to get better, so you walk into the gym and you're like, | ||
| where do I start? | ||
| And Sean Strickland walks up with the smallest face and gives you a high five and goes, bro, | ||
| you are the man. | ||
| Greatest feeling in the world. | ||
| Now, I bring that up because that's how you counter the left's hatred and envy and jealousy. | ||
| They tell you to steal it. | ||
| They say you deserve it. | ||
| It's yours. | ||
| Just take it. | ||
| But what we need is that positive. | ||
| Join us. | ||
| Be confident. | ||
| Be cool. | ||
| Be powerful. | ||
| Be yourself. | ||
| That's what we need. | ||
| Oh God, that's so great to hear, man. | ||
| So it's right. | ||
| So there's two pieces to this, right? | ||
| I'm sorry, I'm sorry. | ||
| You'd never leave the gym if Sean Strickland welcomed you on your first day. | ||
| You'd be like, you'd be a glowing orange. | ||
| You'd be like, oh my gosh, I can hang out with Sean Strickland, right? | ||
| You know, we can mean tweet together. | ||
| Although I can't mean tweet because I gave up mean tweeting for Lent. | ||
| And that includes on-air appearances. | ||
| Easter's the 31st this year, right? | ||
| Easter's coming up, yes, yes. | ||
| So come on, nine more days, nine more days. | ||
| You can write the tweets for later. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just don't put them out. | |
| You can't trick God. | ||
| I'm not saying that. | ||
| God knows the tweets are there. | ||
| God has a sense of humor. | ||
| I guarantee God loves me tweets. | ||
| I know, I know. | ||
| But it would not truly be a sacrifice if I was still writing the tweets. | ||
| It would be funny if on the 31st, just all of these out-of-context tweets just flooded. | ||
| I had a whole conversation with one of them. | ||
| God's just like, yo, let him rip, Jack! | ||
| I was chatting with that guy, Still Boneless, on Twitter about it. | ||
| And he suggested that. | ||
| And I was like, what if I could time them and then save it? | ||
| And I was like, no, no, it's a a cop out. You can't trick God. You can't trick God. No, | ||
| you're not allowed. But it's that's what I'm saying, though. It's those two things. Right. So you've | ||
| got like you've got like your you've got your right wing, right? You've got your left wing and | ||
| then you've got your normies. | ||
| So you've got your normies. These are all the people are kind of in the middle that are just | ||
| like pliable or don't even want to be involved in the culture wars, except that the people on | ||
| the left keep coming for them and forcing them to be in the culture wars. | ||
| And so what the right needs to do is, you know, or if you're just on the right side of that, and I'm trying to be inclusive in opening or whatever, and that you need to, you need to, number one, Provide this competing vision this alternate hopeful vision that it's like and that this is what I was saying the Trump campaign I was like We can all get rich. | ||
| We can all get healthy again. | ||
| We can make America amazing. | ||
| It's gonna be this really cool country We're gonna be futuristic. | ||
| We're gonna have new cities new architecture. | ||
| Everybody's gonna love it but then the same time in order to Stop the revolutionaries, you do have to actively stop them. | ||
| Like, it's not enough to simply oppose communism, you must be actively anti-communist. | ||
| And if you don't stop them, they will not stop on their own. | ||

| Clint Torres says, howdy, people! | ||
| Hey, Clint! | ||
| Howdy, Clint. | ||
| TheBonusSoul says, we are honored to announce that we are number, what is it, 77,159 on the transphobe list that dropped earlier. | ||
| We're truly humbled to be among the list of great transphobes of our generation, despite our band's tiny following. | ||
| What number? | ||
|
unidentified
|
77,000? | |
| Yeah, have you looked this up? | ||
| Me and you were on there. | ||
| No, I know. | ||
| Who made it and what is it? | ||
| I don't know, apparently it's just everybody that's ever said anything that a trans person didn't like, because there's 77,000 people or more. | ||
| Is it ranked? | ||
| No, I don't think, I think it's alphabetical. | ||
| Yeah, it's alphabetic. | ||
| Because if I'm not in the top 10, then I really need to try harder. | ||
| I was at like 2,500 and I was still in the A's. | ||
| I'm like, this is long. | ||
| I think it was Brookings a year ago did the biggest misinformation outlets in America. | ||
| And I was like, only number five. | ||
| And I was so upset. | ||
| I was like, come on! | ||
| When they did that misinformation election thing, I think I was like number 13. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| Actually, I was offended by that because it's the craziest thing where I don't care if you were actively saying Trump won, Germany dominion, whatever it was, but I never said those things. | ||
| You literally argued with people about this? | ||
| I argued with Bannon twice! | ||
| And I was like, ballot harvesting, ballot harvesting, ballot harvesting. | ||
| Which is legal! | ||
| And then they put me on this list, they run these stories, and it was wild because when Google Gemini came out, apparently someone asked it, and it said Tim Pool is a known blah blah, and I'm like, that's... I was like, can I sue Google for defamation? | ||
| For saying things like this? | ||
| It truly is. | ||
| I think you're the guy that it would be so convenient for people if you were just an evil guy. | ||
| It would be so convenient because you wear all black, you let your emotions come out, but you're a good person so it drives them insane. | ||
| I see you, or at least neutral, but I feel you neutral and good on the upper end of the... And I think what they don't see is that I'm probably the most humble person on the internet. | ||
| No, I am. | ||
| You can't beat my humility, dude. | ||
| You can't beat your humility. | ||
| All right, we'll grab some more. | ||
| Raymond G. Stanley Jr. | ||
| says, smash that buy pillow like button. | ||
| I haven't said anything about the sleep accessory word this evening, but of course we all know the greatest promo code is promo code pozo, powerful promo code pozo, mypillow.com for the best night's sleep in the whole wide world. | ||
| The authentic Hydra says, so hear me out. | ||
| If you hire Candace like PBD hired Cuomo, you can bring her on whenever someone wants to talk about Israel-Palestine so you don't have to bother with it. | ||
| That's true! | ||
| I just, there's no way we could afford to hire Candace Owens. | ||
| She's gonna, she's gonna make, I don't know man, she's gonna make 50 million bucks. | ||
| She wants her new company. | ||
| I hope Candace does more documentaries and docuseries. | ||
| I don't know if, you know, how many people have done this. | ||
| I've actually watched all of her documentaries and docuseries and I think they're fantastic. | ||
| They're absolutely fantastic. | ||
| Her George Floyd one, which, you know, was really overshadowed by all the Kanye stuff, Excuse me. | ||
| Yay. | ||
| We don't like to deadname around here. | ||
| It was just incredible. | ||
| It was really incredible. | ||
| Her, you know, the unmaking of a murderer was incredible. | ||
| I think when she does those personally, I love them. | ||
| OMG Puppies says, I stopped following the Daily Wire. | ||
| They removed user comments a few months ago. | ||
| Ben has gone full neoconservative on Ukraine. | ||
| It's all he talks about now. | ||
| Really? | ||
| We added, uh, so over at scnr.com, if you're reading the news there, we, uh, Bill Ottman created a commenting system through Minds, which is really cool. | ||
| So, uh, because we wanted comments to be, like, public. | ||
| We wanted it to be, like, a networked thing where when you comment, it contributes to a larger conversation elsewhere. | ||
| Cool stuff. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Is it, like, I kind of feel like Ben has always been pretty fairly hawkish. | ||
| Certainly not a dove. | ||
| So the idea that he's, like, gone full is kind of like, eh. | ||
| Well, he's been called neocon forever. | ||
| Yeah, like, he's always been, like, you know, comfortable with a muscular United States foreign policy, if we're going to be polite about it. | ||
| Clint Torres says, Phil, go to the gym. | ||
| Clint, I did this morning. | ||
| I will be there tomorrow morning as well. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
| My thing is, like, uh, you know, there's a lot of people ragging on Candace, they're calling her anti-semitic or whatever, and I'm like, you're allowed to have opinions. | ||
| They say Ben Shapiro is hawkish, he's a conservative, I'm like, he's allowed to have opinions. | ||
| The only issue I take is when someone posts something that's, like, wrong. | ||
| They're lying for power, which is typical of the left. | ||
| So it's like, I'll certainly disagree with Candace, I'll certainly disagree with Ben, but that's fine. | ||
| We get along in disagreeing on issues, but agreeing on the things that are happening in this world, and moral frameworks. | ||
| And then you have the left, which lie about what's happening, while trying to enact horribly amoral or immoral things. | ||
| I mean, just point to the cover. | ||
| That's right! | ||
| Basically, like, this is where you get when you allow those people in power. | ||
| This is where you get, every time. | ||
| Tyler McFarlane says, have you seen the video of the guy with Neuralink using it to play Civilization VI? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| He said he played eight hours all night. | ||
| He could, before he couldn't play for 10, 15 minutes because he'd have to have his parents there. | ||
| He's quadriplegic to move around and he'd have to have his body shifted every once in a while. | ||
| But now he just, he said he could lay in bed and play eight hours with his brain. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| Like, using the mouse? | ||
| I think he just uses his thoughts. | ||
| He uses his thoughts to move the cursor to move the stuff around, yeah. | ||
| And it's moving really quick, and like... I saw only a piece where he played chess, and it was moving really fast. | ||
| Yeah, I didn't even see a cursor, I just saw the pieces moving. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| Great. | ||
| And it's going to get more impressive. | ||
| I mean, what was it, just last year is when they first started, you know, doing the stuff with humans, I guess, if I understand correctly. | ||
| Well, brain-to-mouse interface has been around for a long time, but I think this is just like... | ||
| Opening the door into a greater neural link technology. | ||
| So we bought an electroencephalogram in like 2012 that can track two brainwaves, which you could put on your head. | ||
| You don't gotta wire anything. | ||
| You put it on and you can control two vectors. | ||
| So that should be enough to move a mouse. | ||
| Yeah, left, right, up, down easily. | ||
| Yeah, you could move a mouse with that. | ||
| You should get some more of those. | ||
| Get some new ones. | ||
| We were going to order one, yeah. | ||
| Because the new ones can do up to like 16 different brainwaves. | ||
| I suppose the issue is using brainwaves to control something is very different from directly wiring it into your brain, which is probably substantially easier. | ||
| Because you're actually sending signals from your brain and actively controlling the mouse. | ||
| Whereas with the brainwaves, you're trying to figure out how to make your brain emit certain brainwaves, which cause the mouse. | ||
| It's a little different. | ||
| But theoretically, with the modern EEG, you could fly a drone with a headband. | ||
|

|
Our Discord chat says he made his first tweet today using that system. | |
| Whoa! | ||
| Using Neuralink? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's what he says. | |
| He's Neuralinked in? | ||
| I wonder how he did it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I mean, it makes sense. | |
| A guy in the Discord said that this guy did his first tweet. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| Well, the thing to pay attention to is when write capabilities. | ||
| So right now, what we're seeing is read capabilities. | ||
| The computer is able to read the signal from the brain, but when the computer is able to write to the brain, that's when the door opens to people are going to say, bro, I guarantee you, If, if Elon Musk came out right now and said, I'd like to make a deal with all the liberals. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm going to give you a neural link, which will put you into the Harry Potter universe. | |
| And you just don't have to, don't vote. | ||
| They'd be like, sign me up. | ||
| I'm done. | ||
| Lock me in, put, put the bug, bug juice in my mouth. | ||
| And I will lay in the matrix pod for the rest of my life. | ||
| If I could physically just live in Harry Potter world, they'd do it. | ||
| But the leftist wouldn't. | ||
| They would. | ||
| No, the left, because this is my thesis though, the leftists would still be upset that there are people out there not living in the Harry Potter world. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, they'd be happy. | |
| That's true, that's true. | ||
| Look, leftists are really, really pissed off that there are people out there that are happy without their influence. | ||
| That's true, man. | ||
| Happy, successful, good-looking, talented. | ||
| Because again, they are not any of those things. | ||
| Literally, and it's not like it's supposed to be some kind of knock. | ||
| The perspective of, I'm a victim and everything's oppressing me, blah, blah, blah, and the world's out to get me, and my body's a prison, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| All that stuff is cluster B personality traits. | ||
| This is inevitable. | ||
| What'll happen is, the ease of which the implant for a Neuralink will escalate as technology develops, only some people will have it, and no one will think much about it. | ||
| They'll be like, oh, it's just for some people. | ||
| But then some guy's gonna be like, well, you know, I can easily run my company now that I have Neuralink, because when I plug in my mobile device directly to my Neuralink, I don't have to bother with, like I just know when I get a | ||
| message. So it's almost like telepathy. | ||
| And people are going to be like, yeah, well, you know, I don't, I don't want to do that. | ||
| I'm not going to do that. But then this guy's going to start hiring and he, and someone's | ||
| going to be like, I also got the mobile networking neural link. And he's like, oh, great. You're | ||
| hired. It'll grow to the point where you won't have one. | ||
| You'll apply for a job and they'll say, and what's your mobile neural link interface number. | ||
| And you'll go, I don't have one of those. | ||
| And they'll go, well, how do I get in touch with you? | ||
| And you say, well, you can call me on my phone. | ||
| We don't have phones. | ||
| What year are you living in? | ||
| And dude, the thing is, like, once you get that kind of, like, connectivity, it's completely reasonable to think that a motivated person that actually will I was just gonna say it. | ||
| their job like they want to, their productivity goes up by 75, 100, 150%. | ||
| And then why would a company hire someone that wouldn't do that? | ||
| But- And then your brain gets hacked. | ||
| I was just gonna say it. | ||
| I said, what happens when hackers get involved? | ||
| Bro, I was- And as hackers go in and they start, | ||
| they start changing your algorithm. | ||
| They start removing or replacing memories or inserting memories. | ||
| I was talking to, I was talking to Rolo today about this. | ||
| When I first came down here, why I was so psyched to be a part of the thing is because I really believe that cognitive liberty is up for grabs in the next 50 to 100 years. | ||
| We don't even have laws that get close to defining any of that. | ||
| So at Black Hat and DEF CON 10 years ago, They were running talks, lectures on hacking people's pacemakers and their insulin pumps. | ||
| And they were talking about how, because these things are wirelessly controlled or Bluetooth controlled, especially a pacemaker, inside your body, An attacker could get the signal for the device and then turn it off. | ||
| So there could be a guy with a pacemaker, walk and just boom, right to the ground, dead. | ||
| Hacker did it. | ||
| Crazy. | ||
| I could see him making it so you think that they change your brain so you think meat tastes gross. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| They did that in mass to people. | ||
| No, we definitely talked about this. | ||
| They're going to hand you a plate of jiggly roach paste and you're going to go, what is that? | ||
| Oh, I forgot to turn the neural link on. | ||
| You're going to go like this. | ||
| These tannins are delicious. | ||
| No, it's going to turn into a steak. | ||
| And then it's going to be- I'm so excited for this. | ||
| And then the crazy thing is, you will see people eating different things than you. | ||
| Well, this is referenced in The Matrix, right? | ||
| How do you know what a steak really tastes like? | ||
| Like augmented? | ||
| The robots didn't know, so that's why everything tastes like chicken. | ||
| Right. | ||
| They're going to be like, don't worry. | ||
| Ian's thinking about it. | ||
| I was thinking about augmented reality and the neural net. | ||
| When's the last time you had a really good steak? | ||
| How will the augmented reality connect and collide with neural net? | ||
| I mean, because the neural net, if you're just seeing it anyway, but that's like pre-hack. | ||
| Dude, watch Ghost in the Shell. | ||
| I thought you were going to say watch Ghostbusters. | ||
| So when we did the Together Again music video, we had an homage to Ghost in the Shell. | ||
| When Carter hits the hack button or whatever to blow up the drone, the alien drone or whatever it is, the laughing man, it's a smiley face with like a baseball cap. | ||
| In Ghost in the Shell, there's a hacker. | ||
| Whenever someone looks at him, all they see is this weird avatar floating over his face so they can't see what his face is. | ||
| So then they're like, quick, pull up the surveillance cameras! | ||
| And then when they do, the surveillance cameras show the exact same thing. | ||
| Because people's brains are cyberized with nanites, the person sends out a signal and then you can't see his face. | ||
| Yeah, self-assembling nanobots is another thing. | ||
| That's a real tech that's been around since 2018 at least. | ||
| Let's grab some more Super Chats! | ||
| James Hates Everything says, Russia has been attacked by Chechen Islamic terrorists several times. | ||
| Attacked grade school and theater, no conspiracy needed. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Agreed. | |
| That's why it's like, you know. | ||
| That was the first thing we said. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| The Beslan massacre and the Moscow theater. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Tech Roo says, I was in a safety meeting a few weeks ago, and it suddenly occurred to me, wouldn't graphene-reinforced concrete and asphalt just become the next asbestos? | ||
| No, I don't think so. | ||
| It enhances the strength by about three times. | ||
| When you put bulk graphene in, I think, concrete. | ||
| And I'm not really sure that graphene is a carcinogen, is it? | ||
| It's just carbon, isn't it? | ||
| Yeah, it's pure carbon. | ||
| And it's stabilized, so it doesn't fall out into the atmosphere and stuff. | ||
| But it might rub off on your skin, and then you get a little bit of carbon in your body. | ||
| A lot of it's untested. | ||
| Graphene oxide's another thing completely. | ||
| It's like rusted graphene, basically, oxidized. | ||
| That might do other stuff. | ||
| All right, Jason Dixon says, seriously looking forward to seeing how Tim spins this into cops are bad. | ||
| God save Jack Poso. | ||
| He has chosen to lead us back to the Lord God. | ||
| You see, but I set you up. | ||
| That's why I asked you guys. | ||
| Do you think the cops will go around arresting people? | ||
| Because I think it's unfair to accuse me of being uniquely holding of that opinion when it's an opinion formed by other people who I've had conversations with. | ||
| Yes, Jack will lead you to God, and it's very helpful. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Just go to Latin Mass. | ||
| Everyone, just go to Latin Mass. | ||
| Just go there. | ||
| Just go there and experience it and try it, and you'll be there. | ||
| I was saying this on the Culture War. | ||
| If you go to church, you will be happier. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And the reason why I said that, because I know a lot of... I say these things like this to immediately do the shock of the statement, but it's not about faith. | ||
| It's not about church, it's about community. | ||
| It's about if you have people around you who are wondering where you are and want you to be there with them. | ||
| It may be that one day a family member dies, and you're really sad. | ||
| Well, you wallow at home doing nothing, but if you're a regular at church, your community will say, hey, this is weird. | ||
| Bill's not here today. | ||
| Can someone go check on him? | ||
| All of these things add up. | ||
| You have people who are there for you, who are concerned about you, who care about you. | ||
| Some people who might not like you all that much, but with the high density of individuals who expect your company, it is the act of being involved in community and having neighbors, which will typically lead to a greater level of happiness and support. | ||
| That's why I just say simply, church, because church historically has been that for us. | ||
| We don't have that now. | ||
| That being said, community in general makes you happier, so you can find that in many ways. | ||
| But it's because we've lost so many third spaces in society today that it's hard to find any of those that aren't work or home. | ||
| And so church actually does exist as a kind of third space for people of really any age to go and exhibit in. | ||
| The third space is literally just like, where did you used to go to hang out? | ||
| But all of the places that we used to hang out have been systemically removed. | ||
| Yeah, I often tell the story about how I met up with Seamus when he was going to Latin Mass in Charlestown. | ||
| And just to see all the neighbors hanging out, all the parents are talking, all the kids are playing, the kids are finally dressed, wearing button-ups, and I'm like, Look man, you can't deny it, okay? | ||
| Kids who are properly dressed and playing games with their parents nearby and the neighbors are communicating is an infinite, infinitely greater boon than what we see today with kids going out and getting in trouble, parents don't know who their neighbors are, don't know where their kids are at. | ||
| And I'm like, I'm not saying this is an inherently faith-based statement, I'm saying quite literally as a function what church does is something we need. | ||
| And again, You need to build a third space as Jack was saying. | ||
| So this is a great example of what you can say that a lot of people will get hung up on whether or not you can prove God is real or not. | ||
| But one thing that might be a bit more powerful and bring more people in is if you say God is essential. | ||
| That none of this works without that shared understanding of a God. | ||
| Man! | ||
| I keep thinking about subatomic spinners. | ||
| You know what those are? | ||
| They spin up. | ||
| There's these fermions and bosons that create matter, like protons and neutrons and electrons, depending on their subatomic spin. | ||
| And I just visualized trillions of them all spinning in succession. | ||
| And I feel like that's like God pulsing. | ||
| It's just one perspective of what it is. | ||
| I was reading about deism, and there was some component of it that I thought was interesting. | ||
| I don't know enough about it, but there was something about people believing that there is a natural religion that was lost, or something to that effect, like the natural connection to God was lost by humanity and twisted by politicians and grifters and con artists. | ||
| And I agree with that, but I don't know what deist philosophy is pertaining to that, but I do think that Intrinsically, humans would have a connection to God were it not for the forces that try to pull them away from God. | ||
| Well, and so in Christianity, of course, it's so like there's the, you know, like the more Buddhist belief is that, you know, we're all sort of connected and we're all spiritual creatures. | ||
| And that's that's one side. | ||
| And there's the other side that we're just these, you know, we're wet robots. | ||
| Yeah, the wet robots. | ||
| We're beasts and we're just a little bit smarter than, you know, the animals. | ||
| But that's all the only distinction. | ||
| But then there's in Christianity, it's this middle ground. | ||
| And Norm Macdonald, of all people, talked about this once where it's like, We have a spark of the divine, but because of original sin, we've been made wretched. | ||
| And so we've been sort of cut off from our being able to tap into that divinity. | ||
| And so through the mediator, through Christ, it's like this doorway back to what we were originally intended to be. | ||
| So it's like you were originally intended to be a spiritual being, a being with this direct divinity. | ||
| Bye. | ||
| Something went wrong, and now we're stuck in this current state, and to get out of it, this is the door you go through. | ||
| It's funny you said the current state, because I think electricity is actually dampening our ability to connect with God. | ||
| It's causing magnetic interference, and it's the current. | ||
| You're saying this current thing that we're in. | ||
| It is current. | ||
| It's this current, and it's so useful for the human animal to use, but the spirit is getting sucked into the screen. | ||
| Right, so how do you coordinate, how do you calibrate your spiritual frequency to be on the proper current? | ||
| But what if it's the fluoride calcifying our pineal gland so we can no longer sense? | ||
| In the choroid plexus. | ||
| Well, here's what I was saying, and I don't mean this quite literally, but it is kind of interesting that people who live in rural areas tend to be more spiritual, believe in God, and they live off well water, which has low fluoride content. | ||
| People who live in cities are detached from God and have high fluoride content. | ||
| And those people in the woods, they don't have power lines as much. | ||
| In the US. | ||
| I know, I'm kidding, I'm not saying it's true, I'm just saying it's funny. | ||
| Yeah, you can go to countries where people live in cities and are very connected to God. | ||
| All right, we'll grab some more Super Chats. | ||
| What do we got here? | ||
| Ghost Crusaders says, Tim, as a former property manager in New York City, this happens 100% of the time and the cops don't even ask for proof. | ||

Boom. | |
| As long as the other person says they can prove they do nothing, they don't want to get involved. | ||
| And then we have, um, where were we just? | ||
| Did I just lose a Super Chat? | ||
| Where did it go? | ||
| It disappeared. | ||
| How does that happen? | ||
| It's gone. | ||
| Uber Chat. | ||
| If you want to know all the answers, just buy a book. | ||
| Buy a book! | ||
| Where do they buy Unhumans? | ||
| Buy a book! | ||
| Buy a book, Ian. | ||
| It's everywhere. | ||
| It's up everywhere. | ||
| It's up everywhere. | ||
| Dude, I want a copy. | ||
| Buy a book. | ||
| Can you sign that? | ||
| No, I'm not going to sign it. | ||
| Give it to me. | ||
| It's not for you. | ||
| I want it. | ||
| No, this is my promotional tool. | ||
| Jason Dixon says, Tim, math. Several hundred thousands of interactions with cops each month, but the 12 bad incidents | ||
| over the last 10 years mean all are bad. | ||
| Followed by, Tim, as a former property manager in New York City, this happens 100% of the time, and the cops don't | ||
| even ask for proof, as long as the other person says they can prove they do nothing, they don't want to get involved. | ||
| So, uh, there you go. | ||
| Ghost Crusaders answered for you, Jason. | ||
| But my, my, my contention on that is because he said he was in New York City, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That guy. | ||
| So because he was, and that's what Phil's talking about, because he knows that the people in charge of city government are completely infiltrated by communists or in, in many cases, just avowed open communists themselves. | ||
| And they know that if they get involved, then they're gonna be the ones under scrutiny. | ||
| So it's again, them following, and to your point, I'm not arguing the morality of the point you're making about they could walk off the job and not fulfill that order, but what their order is coming from- No, no, no, they could just not do it. | ||
| They could literally stay on the job. | ||
| Yeah, and then the squatter writes down their bill or writes down their, you know, the badge number and then goes to the city and makes it a files a complaint against them. | ||
| But that's just, you don't lose your job. | ||
| They just say, what happened? | ||
| He's be like, oh, a guy was breaking, he broke, it was a break-in, we removed him. | ||
| I don't know, we charged him with burglary. | ||
| And then you have, you know, Benjamin Crump shows up and he's suing the city and he's going after you. | ||
| So you have choices. | ||
| The police have choices. | ||
| They can enforce burglary laws. | ||
| They can say, leave me out of it, or they can quit. | ||
| But it's not against the law in New York. | ||
| It's not against the law to break into someone's house? | ||
| Squatting. | ||
| But the issue is, if you can't prove it, you're not a squatter. | ||
| You're a burglar. | ||
| The way that it's written. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| It comes down to the enforcement. | ||
| And it is the fault of the landlord, too. | ||
| Because, like the homeowner says, these guys changed the locks and claim they live here. | ||
| And the cop goes, okay, bye. | ||
| If she said, help, these men broke into my house, it'd be a different story. | ||
| What I'm also saying, though, is there's an incentive structure that's set up here. | ||
| And the incentive structure for that officer is going to be to follow the path that's laid out for them. | ||
| So if the path on this way is, I know if I mess with the squatter that I'm going to have the entire city coming after me or worse, then they're not going to do that. | ||
| And this is the same way that we saw it. | ||
| You want to talk about non-enforcing laws. | ||
| The reason the homicide rate went up after George Floyd was because of police sitting home. | ||
| And you're right, it's selective enforcement. | ||
| They stopped going after violent criminals. | ||
| Look what happened in every single major city in America, except for Baltimore, because in Baltimore it already happened. | ||
| Jason Dixon says, Tim voted for these dams. | ||
| These laws then cries. | ||
| I mean, I don't know why you said that last time, too, because that's just not true. | ||
| Like, I voted one time in 2008 for the first time and then went, wow, these people are liars. | ||
| So then I did not vote at all until 2020 when I voted down to get Republican. | ||
| Like, so what was the point of saying that? | ||
| I think I voted for Jill Stein in 2016. | ||
| I didn't vote in 2016 or 2012, I said these people are liars. | ||
| Uh, Liam Garner, last super chat, he says, I understand people's reservations about Neuralink, but I'm 29, an incomplete paraplegic and professional firefighter. | ||
| I got hurt on the job, and I'm counting the seconds till motion control phase because I need to get back to work. | ||
| Not a job. | ||
| It's who you are. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Agreed. | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| And that's the whole point to do Neuralink. | ||
| Like just that alone makes the risks of having Neuralink and stuff like that makes the risk worth it. | ||
| I don't think anyone opposes Neuralink for anyone who's in that situation. | ||
| I wouldn't say anyone. | ||
| That's in those situations. | ||
| Okay, fair enough. | ||
| But I think there are people who have a healthy skepticism of how it Will 100% be abused. | ||
| And when people like this get control of Neuralink technology, bad things are going by this. | ||
| It's not the super chatter. | ||
| You mean the people in the book that you're pointing to the book? | ||
| If anyone's, uh, you know, to the guy, if you've ever had spinal injury in Rice University, they figured out how to, how to regrow the spines of mice that had had their spines severed by inserting graphene nano threads, these ribbons that meet together. | ||
| And then the spine regrows along the threads. | ||
| They severed a mouse's spine within like 21 days. | ||
| It was almost back to complete normal. | ||
| So that's upcoming technology to regrow spinal activity. | ||
| Keep your eyes on that stuff out of Rice University. | ||
| Jim Tuer is the scientist that's pioneering that. | ||
| One last thing real quick. | ||
| Where is it? | ||
| Right here. | ||
| Last widget. | ||
| Fallison says, is there an update with the app, or has it been abandoned after the switch to SCNR? | ||
| The app still functions completely normally, but you're right, the news articles haven't been updated, so we do need to fix that, so they link to scnr.com, which is not TimCast, it's a different company. | ||
| But that being said, we'll get that done. | ||
| Smash the like button, subscribe to the channel, share the show with your friends, head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member. | ||
| Support our work directly by being a member, and most importantly, join the Discord! | ||
| When you become a member, you're helping fund the show, all the people who work here, all of our operations and culture and everything. | ||
| You're helping us build the Casper physical location. | ||
| We're gonna have a members-only space where people can physically hang out. | ||
| But the most important thing is, you join the Discord, you talk to people, you network, you build community. | ||
| Digital's not so great, but it's a good first step. | ||
| In a few months, when we get the building in Martinsburg, West Virginia done, there will be the Elite Members Club, where you will get your own keycard, and you can swipe yourself in during open hours, because we have to have people working there. | ||
| 100 bucks a month, if you're an Elite Member, you have access. | ||
| The point of it, I know 100 bucks a month is a lot, but it's so that we can hire staff to maintain it, to stock it with With goods and create a social club. | ||
| I assure you this club is substantially cheaper than the $200,000 per month. | ||
| They do in New York or the 50,000. | ||
| I'm sorry 20,000 a year. | ||
| They do in New York 50,000 a year, but Hopefully we have a lot of people who start hanging out Organizing and we can create a space where people can come together and share ideas You can follow the show at Tim cast IRL. | ||
| You could follow me personally at Tim cast Jack You got a book, huh? | ||

| Just let your body. | ||
| Follow your body. | ||
| Your body doesn't know why you wouldn't. | ||
| It doesn't have a mind. | ||
| When it has to go, just let it go. | ||
| You'll feel better. | ||
| I hope my toddlers aren't listening to that because we've been trying to potty train. | ||
| Listen to your parents. | ||
| One is good, but not so much the other one. | ||
| Uh, yeah, I don't know how to end after that. | ||
