Today is October 10th, 2022, and our first story.
In retaliation for an explosion on the Crimea Bridge, Russia has launched several airstrikes against Ukraine and has just hit the German embassy.
Fears that this will escalate continue with Donald Trump saying we could be entering World War III.
In our next segment, PayPal stock plummets after Daily Wire report exposes shocking misinformation policy.
PayPal claimed they could fine you $2,500 for spreading misinformation and hate speech.
In our last segment, Looking over the news, there's this Democrat woman who resigned after it was revealed she was saying racist things.
I thought about liberal women being unhappy, liberal women being mentally ill, and there are studies backing this up, and they tend to be Democrat.
So I kind of bring all this together with a kind of loose but open conversation on the issue.
If you like the show, give us a good review, leave us five stars, and share the show with your friends.
Now, let's get into that first story.
This morning it was reported that the German embassy in Kiev was hit by Russian airstrikes.
The Pope has already said we're in World War III.
Many people have said we're in World War III.
Donald Trump thinks we are entering World War III.
But there are a lot of questions around the news that's coming out from this weekend and as it pertains to war.
It's the fog of war, my friends.
The first casualty in any war is the truth.
So what is the truth?
We don't know.
We only have the reporting that's being given to us.
And according to this reporting, several things over this weekend happened.
The Crimean Bridge, the pathway for Russians to enter Crimea, was partially destroyed.
I don't know if it's currently functioning, but severe damage after an explosion.
In response to this, it's being reported that Vladimir Putin is retaliating with airstrikes on Kiev, as well as other parts of Ukraine.
One of these strikes has reportedly hit in the German Embassy.
How will Germany respond?
Now, they are saying, however, the building has not been in use.
We're getting reports now the U.S.
Embassy is urging all U.S.
citizens in Kiev to immediately leave Ukraine.
Well, more importantly, they're saying to immediately shelter in place because of the airstrikes.
Here's the important reminder from all of this news.
Vladimir Putin has not yet begun to fight.
Now, of course, here in the West, they want you to hear all the propaganda.
They want you to believe whatever it is the media says, whatever it is the news reports are saying, I don't know.
I know that propaganda is very important.
I know that mustering NATO citizens to support a NATO confrontation with Russia is also important.
If the morale is not there, you are paralyzed.
So, it's hard to know what to say when you get reports that the German embassy was just hit by an airstrike because, by all accounts, Germany could respond and say that that was an attack on German soil.
Some people have pointed out embassies get hit, they get hit relatively commonly when it comes to conflict and it doesn't always mean that that country will come to conflict.
So I don't know.
What I do know is that the media is reporting Putin is unleashing his wrath.
And they want you to hate this man, to hate what Russia is doing, and I don't know what to tell you.
I mean, I think it's bad that Russia has invaded the eastern regions of Ukraine.
I think what happens in Crimea is all bad.
I think Russia is just playing a losing hand.
However, they will tell you Russia is weak and Russia will lose, and that is a lie.
I'm not saying Russia's doing well in terms of holding the eastern region of Ukraine with their ground forces.
What I am saying is these airstrikes demonstrate that Vladimir Putin has not yet begun to fight.
It really does seem that Putin has started off this conflict restrained.
I mean, it's undeniable.
If Vladimir Putin was unrestrained, he'd have just nuked the city centers immediately.
No, he's holding back.
Russia is more powerful than this conflict shows us right now.
To put it simply, Vladimir Putin, when he truly believes he's in a fight, you're going to see the most powerful weapons Russia has at its disposal unleashed.
There is, however, one rebuttal.
There's plenty, but here's what I would say to that.
Perhaps the reason, if any, that Vladimir Putin will not nuke Kiev, or any part of Ukraine, or NATO for that matter, It's that they know the U.S.
surface-to-air missile or SDI defenses or whatever it is they may have today will stop the nuclear strike from occurring.
Of some 83 missile strikes on Kiev, I think 43 were intercepted.
So, I'll get you the exact numbers.
It could be that Vladimir Putin wants the world to fear his nukes.
The only problem is he knows that if he actually fires one, they take it out in the sky like the Iron Dome, and that shows that Vladimir Putin has no teeth.
I don't know though.
You know, I think back to the good old graphic novel Watchmen.
Dr. Manhattan says, even if I could stop 99.9% of all of the nuclear missiles fired by Russia, it only takes one.
That's right.
unidentified
One.
tim pool
50 megaton, who knows?
Plus they got the Poseidon nuclear torpedo.
So there's a lot that happened.
The Crimea bridge explosion, for those that didn't see it over the weekend, this is shocking news.
The bridge that connects Russia to Crimea was blown up.
Vladimir Putin is furious.
It's being reported Putin has declared retaliation.
And the Daily Mail reports, 83 Russian missiles hit Ukrainian cities, bringing death and destruction across the country, with Vladimir warning there will be severe response to further attacks.
So maybe it's 83 rockets were fired, they say, with half shot down.
So that's important.
But it did result in many dying.
And the strikes were in Kiev.
Donald Trump has issued his statement.
We'll end up in World War 3.
Trump says U.S.
saying exactly the wrong thing to Russia.
Trump is right.
Perhaps Ukraine, and what is it now they're saying?
Lithium oxide?
Is that what they're really trying to get now?
Apparently the eastern region of Ukraine is very rich in lithium.
Interesting.
You know where else is rich in lithium?
Afghanistan.
So many people have suggested that potentially the U.S.
said we're going to get away from Afghanistan because we're not we're not going to be able to maintain this and partly thanks to Donald Trump and focus our efforts on Ukraine where securing the eastern region is also large lithium deposits.
There's always some reason, isn't it?
It's oil, it's natural gas, it's lithium, I don't know.
And neither will you.
For all we know, the war is actually because Joe Biden spilled wine on Vladimir Putin's lapel.
Or something like that, I don't know.
We can only speculate because all this information is being kept from us.
But here's the first news, the big news.
This is from the Jerusalem Post.
The German Embassy in Kiev was hit by Russian airstrikes on Monday, German media outlet Bild reported.
However, the building has not been in use since the war broke out, the foreign ministry said.
Russian-born journalist and political strategist Sergei Semelny, now based in Berlin, tweeted out the attacks, asking for Chancellor Olaf Scholz and other German officials to issue a response to the airstrike.
Reports indicate that it was the visa office of the German embassy that was hit, according to Euronews Weekly.
Now, this is interesting.
Before the strike happened, shortly before the strike, the German government condemned the recent attacks on Ukraine, a government spokesperson said, who also assured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky of Germany's support in a recent phone call.
Are they trying to imply that because Germany condemned Russia's strikes, that they were then hit?
I don't know.
But they want you to feel that way.
Or at the very least, let's just say, I don't know their intentions, but many people will.
The result of this story is that people are going to assume, not everybody, but many, that when Germany said, hey, don't you strike civilians, Russia hit them in response.
Will this lead to war?
I don't think so.
But, I'll tell you this, it's a Cass's belly for sure for Germany to say, we need to enter, or we need to ramp up, or at the very least, with Poland asking for nuclear weapons.
Maybe they might say, after we got hit, we need to- yeah, I hope not.
From Ukraine News, Ukrainian News.
The U.S.
Embassy in Kiev has urged citizens of the United States who are now on the territory of Ukraine to urgently leave the country.
The embassy announced this on its official website.
Russia has launched attacks against Ukraine's civilian infrastructure as well as government facilities in Kiev and elsewhere.
Russia's continued strikes in Ukraine pose a direct threat to civilians and civilian infrastructure.
The U.S.
Embassy urges U.S.
citizens to shelter in place and depart Ukraine now using privately available ground transportation options when it is safe to do so.
As Ukrainian news agency earlier reported, as of 11.40 a.m., Russia fired 83 missiles.
Donald Trump issued a brief statement.
Former President U.S.
Trump slammed the U.S.
for saying exactly the wrong thing to Russia following Joe Biden's remarks on the prospect of Armageddon amid Vladimir Putin's nuclear threats.
Mr. Trump said the Biden administration should be pushing Russia and Ukraine to sue for peace, warning the conflict could be heading to World War III.
Quote, and now we have a war between Russia and Ukraine with potentially hundreds of thousands of people dying.
We must demand immediate negotiation of a peaceful end to the war in Ukraine or we will end up in World War III and there will never be a war like this.

tim pool
Call it, I don't know, just the nuclear Armageddon.
I love this meme that's going around.
Joe Biden tweeting, and when I'm president, you don't gotta worry about my tweets.
And then below it, it says, Biden says we've never been closer to Armageddon amid threats of nuclear war.
And it's like, yeah, but I mean, come on, no mean tweets.
Yeah, it's the, look, let me tell you guys something.
I want to give you a stern wake-up call.
These people who voted for Biden, not all of them, many of them, it's a true statement.
The mean tweets matter more than nuclear war.
Why?
Two reasons.
They won't know about the threat of nuclear war because they don't read the news.
And they don't believe it could happen.
So the mean tweets really are the principal issue for these people.
Had to vote for Biden because of mean tweets!
Well, you know, I ain't gonna cry about it.
I've been taking care of myself, buying emergency food, have you?
I got out of the cities, off to the middle of nowhere, outside of the blast radius for any major city that would be hit, and any smaller city that would be used as an example in a shotgun dog campaign.
So, you know.
I'm not completely confident, but I'm confident enough.
From the Daily Mail.
Putin's wrath unleashed.
I assure you, my friends, Putin has not yet begun to fight.
And that is not a compliment.
I am warning you now.
This is an example of Vladimir Putin saying, I can hit you where it hurts when I feel like it.
And 83 missiles fired on Kiev.
One of them could have been a tactical nuke.
One of them to get through.
Do you know what?
Maybe one of them was.
We don't know.
And maybe it was of the 40 that were taken down.
Vladimir Putin has vowed a severe response to attacks on Russia after firing dozens of missiles at Ukraine this morning, blowing up power networks and killing civilians in retaliation for the Crimea bridge blast this weekend.
The Crimea bridge That's Russia.
Russia, they annexed, I'll do air quotes, Crimea.
Crimea has been fairly strongly pro-Russia for a long time, so it's hard to know exactly what's happening.
But this bridge, that was Russia connecting to Crimea.
Look, you can argue that Crimea isn't actually part of Russia, because absolutely, the Ukrainians do.
But Russia argues otherwise, but more importantly, this bridge, it was Russia.
A mixture of missiles and Iranian-made suicide drones were used to strike the cities of Dnipro and Zaporizhia in southern Ukraine.
Northern Kharkiv and Sumy, Central Zhytomyr and Vinnytsia, and even far western Ternopil and Lviv, President Volodymyr Zelensky said some of these cities have not been hit in months.
That's crazy.
The Iranian-made suicide drones?
Do you really need to call it that?
They're just drones with bombs on them.
They say Putin said he ordered strikes on military communications and energy infrastructure after what he called terrorist attacks by Ukraine, pointing to the Crimea bridge attack, but also accusing Kiev of bombing one of its own nuclear plants, attacking gas pipes and assassinating officials and journalists.
Dmitry Medvedev, a staunch ally of Putin, called today's attacks the first episode of a wider response.
Putin said, Kiev's regime, with its actions, places itself in line with international terrorist organizations.
Leaving such crimes without response is impossible.
In case of continuing attacks, we will respond in harsh manner and in line with level of threats to Russian Federation.
Nobody should have any doubt about this.
Ukraine has not claimed responsibility for the bridge attack and blames Russia for strikes on nuclear infrastructure and gas pipes.
Zelensky said Monday's missile attacks had targeted power networks, water supplies, and civilians in an attempt to sow terror.
Now look, these strikes hit civilian targets.
Call it what you want.
If Vladimir Putin decides he's in this game 100%, he will just fire a nuke at Kiev.
I'm saying, what do you do?
Volodymyr Zelensky, President of Ukraine, wanted NATO to engage in preemptive strikes against Russia, potentially preemptive nuclear strikes.
He said, don't respond after, do it before, so they know what happens when you nuke us.
And then when everyone went, my dear God, he's calling for nuclear World War III.
He went, no, no, no, no, no.
No, I meant imposed sanctions.
Sorry.
Misspoke on the world stage, issuing a World War III threat against a nuclear power.
It's funny, because I rag on Joe Biden for misspeaking.
When he went up there and kept saying Libya instead of Syria, and I'm like, one of these days he's gonna be like, we gotta bomb Libya.
And then people are gonna be like, you mean Syria?
What did I say?
And they're gonna go, okay, fire the missiles, and then hit Libya, and then Libya's gonna be like, what?
Granted, Libya is in a state of disarray anyway because of the U.S.
and NATO and France.
But I digress.
We're now seeing that very scenario play out with Ukraine.
With Zelensky being like, we need preemptive strikes!
Hit them hard!
Oopsie!
And he says I just misspoke.
There is no misspeaking on the global stage when you threaten a nuclear strike or demand one against a nuclear power.
Fortunately, It's a game of chess.
And you don't want to bring out your queen too early.
Well, I suppose, depending on who you're playing against.
But, you know, in chess, I'm not a master by any means.
The goal is, initially, I should say one of the targets, is to control the center of the board faster with lower-valued pieces.
It's really funny when I think about chess, because it's a rather simple game compared to, you know, I play Magic the Gathering.
Haven't played it in a little while, but Ian and I, you know, from Team Cast Iron, we play Commander quite a bit.
And with something like 15,000 to 16,000 very different cards, a much, much different game.
It's a lot of fun.
With chess, control the center of the board with the lower value pieces first.
This is exactly what is happening right now.
Nobody wants to send out their queen right away.
Moves are being made.
And not only that, Russia and the U.S.
only speculate as to the intelligence they have on the weapons capabilities of their rivals.
NATO is a large, powerful military alliance.
But it's the U.S.
versus Russia.
That's what it really comes down to.
That's it.
Now, I believe there's some 600 million people, a little bit more than that, maybe 650, in the NATO alliance.
And then you have Russia, which is what?
I don't know, is it 120 million?
I could be wrong.
Much less people, but still a particularly powerful military.
And it's one man, and it's nuclear weapons.
That's the power of having nuclear weapons.
They're going to say Ukraine has not claimed responsibility for the bridge attack and blames Russia for strikes on nuclear infrastructure and gas pipes.
Russia is trying to destroy us and wipe us off the face of the earth, he added.
As advisor Mikhailo Podolyak said the strikes showed the Kremlin's terrorist inadequacy.
You know what's funny is I don't buy it.
That Russia wants to wipe Ukraine off the map?
No.
Russia does not.
Russia wants control in Ukraine.
Here we can see, this is really crazy.
This is the Crimea bridge.
This was blown up.
I believe it still may be functioning in some capacity, but this is cutting off Crimea from Russia.
You can see what their goal is, and what was the point of that attack.
You can see here on the map all of these strikes hitting all over Ukraine, even as far as Lviv.
That's it.
That's Vladimir Putin saying, you want to hit the bridge?
We will pepper across your entire country.
I'd like this to stop.
Everybody would.
But what do you do, man?
It's not so easy.
There's no simple answers.
Vladimir Putin announces retaliation.
Yeah, for the Crimea bridge bombing.
CNN reported this weekend.
An explosion severely damaged parts of the road and rail bridge between annexed Crimea and the Russian mainland early Saturday seems designed to play into Putin's current talent for making bad decisions.
Excuse me?
This is an opinion piece?
Can we get a clarification?
Analysis.
Okay, to be fair, fine.
It brings forward a number of weeks the strategic choices he must make about Russia's occupation of southern Ukraine.
While Kiev has not claimed responsibility for the Kerch Strait bridge blast, it has previously taken credit for a series of strikes on targets in Russian-occupied Crimea over the summer.
Russian officials said a limited amount of car traffic had resumed on undamaged sections of the bridge roadways by Saturday evening, so partially still in use.
Train services were resuming, that is impressive, but trucks were being asked to take ferries across the strait.
They want to choke out supplies to Crimea.
It's a brilliant move.
There's only one real land bridge.
I shouldn't say land bridge.
Bridge itself.
Connecting the land masses.
If Russia now wants to bring in supplies to its war effort in Crimea, it's going to have to be by ferry.
Much easier target.
Well, in a sense, it's easier targets.
They're probably just different targets.
Blowing up a bridge really does just sever your ground supplies.
What they want to do is they want to make sure that Crimea cannot fight.
This will allow Ukraine to go in and seize the territory much more easily.
This won't end well.
None of it will.
There is no circumstance in which Vladimir Putin wakes up one day and just says, I can't believe it.
I can't believe it.
What have I become?
Looking in the mirror and saying, no!
World War 3?
I should just let NATO take Ukraine!
And then he comes out and everyone cheers and they throw confetti and he says, NATO will be allowed to have more territory on our border.
Never gonna happen.
Now, there's a possibility that Putin dies, is assassinated or something, but if Western media is telling us the truth, that would be the end of it.
That Putin's generals are like, no, no, we must stop, but Putin's making us.
Lies.
I can't believe that.
Vladimir Putin being one man.
I'm sure there are many people in Russia who don't want to go to war and would prefer just to be rich and let NATO do as they please.
But the only way Putin actually pulls this stuff off is because people listen to him.
It's possible if Putin dies, there would be a fear that without his leadership they wouldn't win, maybe a surrender.
So maybe you'll see some kind of assassination attempt.
The Sword of Damocles.
To be someone like Putin right now is not fun.
I would not imagine it's any kind of fun.
Now, Joe Biden, not directly involved in, you know, the conflict in the way that Russia is.
He is.
But, look, we're in the United States.
Ain't nobody coming here.
Ain't nobody getting anywhere near our infrastructure.
Good luck.
In Russia?
Look, you've got Latvia, you've got Estonia, you've got, uh, who else we got?
Latvia and Estonia, I think, are on the border.
And you've got Ukraine.
And you've got Ukrainians being brought into Russia.
That is a very close chance that someone's going in there and trying to go after Putin.
And I think we've already heard that it may be the case.
Now, the U.S.
has blamed Ukraine for the assassination of Dugin's daughter.
So we can see that Ukrainians, at least according to the U.S., are engaged in assassination attempts.
Putin's probably not too happy about what's going on.
And that's simply put.
Of course he's not.
He's firing strikes and throwing suicide bombs and things like that.
The question is, can he be stopped?
Yeah, I think the answer is yes.
But I think the answer is, we will regret the attempt to do so.
I think anyone goes anywhere near Vladimir Putin, you get nukes.
Nukes in the air.
He's not walking away from this.
I'll leave it there.
Next segment's coming up at 1 p.m.
on this channel.
Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
PayPal's stock is down around 5% after a report emerged late last week that they would be fining users $2,500 up to, that amount, for spreading disinformation or disparaging marginalized peoples.
PayPal came out and said, this is a big mistake.
We didn't mean to actually release this language.
It was in error.
And a lot of people are saying, no, it's not an error.
It was a trial balloon.
PayPal was hoping that they would implement this policy, that I will repeat, that if you as a user Spread misinformation, which is a nebulous term, what they define it, or disparage certain marginalized peoples, they would charge you $2,500.
There was a major backlash.
It was only after Elon Musk and the, what do they call it, the PayPal mafia came out and said, shut down your PayPal, shut down your accounts and GTFO.
That's when PayPal went, no, wait, please stop.
It was an accident.
My friends, I wake up to the news and I am outraged!
First of all, I'm actually kind of... I want to gloat for a second.
Here's what we're gonna do.
Head over to TimCast.com, become a member, and you will notice something very important and interesting.
When you are registering as a member at TimCast.com, you click this beautiful little Join Us button, select the amount by which you would like to pay to be a member, $10 is the basic membership, you will notice Parallel Economy.
That's right.
We eliminated PayPal from our website months ago because we knew this was going to happen.
Not because we are psychics, but because we read the news for a living.
We had a conversation here.
I said, guys, based on what we've already seen with PayPal banning people, we need to get off PayPal.
You know, hindsight being 20-20, I wouldn't have used PayPal from the beginning had I known.
And that put us at very serious risk.
PayPal wants to fine you for wrong-think.
Fine me for wrong-think.
Had I known better, and I can only say hindsight is 20-20, because we knew PayPal was bad, we could have started off with Stripe.
Parallel Economy was co-founded by Dan Bongino.
It is censorship resistant.
If you trust Dan, I do, then use Parallel Economy.
When you sign up right now at TimCast.com, we default Parallel Economy.
Again, that is co-founded by Dan Bongino.
There's some affiliation with Rumble.
And so, perfect?
No, of course not.
Better?
Absolutely.
Stripe is a second option for a variety of reasons.
We need an alternative, and Stripe has actually shown to be a bit better than PayPal.
I believe Locals, which is also associated with Rumble, uses Stripe as well.
Perfect?
No.
As good as Parallel Economy?
No, but still substantially better than PayPal.

We are doing everything we can to reasonably Hey guys, Josh Hammer here, the host of America on Trial with Josh Hammer, a podcast for the First Podcast Network.
Look, there are a lot of shows out there that are explaining the political news cycle, what's happening on the Hill, the this, the that.
There are no other shows that are cutting straight to the point when it comes to the unprecedented lawfare debilitating And affecting the 2024 presidential election.

Move away from corrupt systems that hate you and will hurt you.
So, that being said, I wake up to this news about PayPal, and of course it's bad news.
Because even though we set up Parallel Economy as our default financial transaction service for TimCast.com, a large portion of our memberships still go through PayPal for two reasons.
The first, many people who signed up are not as politically active as URI.
They signed up for PayPal, and then they said, you know, whatever.
I signed up because I watched the show, I liked it, and then I didn't really think that much about it.
These people are still members on PayPal for the most part.
That, or they're just like, I don't really care all that much.
But many people signed up using PayPal guest accounts, meaning they created an account for the purpose of being a member at TimCast.com, and it's not so easy to just switch that version over.
If you had your own PayPal account, and then you signed up, really easy to switch over to Parallel Economy.
If you signed up as a guest, less easy.
So what's happening now is we've already lost a lot of money.
And I blame PayPal for this.
I believe PayPal is responsible for the damages incurred to my business.
Why?
I don't care about them changing the policy.
For one, I think the policy is bad on a political and personal level.
But if they, as a business, say we have the right to change our terms as we see fit, okay, fine.
But this wasn't that.
PayPal did not change their terms.
They put out a false statement in error.
Now, where does it say in the terms that if they screw up, and it causes people to bleed out of the user base, that I have to pay for that?
You see where I'm going with that?
I believe, personally, that PayPal was intentionally trying to pull some insane trial balloon for woke social credit systems.
That's just my personal opinion, and it doesn't matter.
What matters now is, one, protecting you, two, standing up for what we really believe in, and three, holding PayPal accountable for this.
First, if you would like to make sure that you're a member using Parallel Economy, if you had signed up with PayPal, you can check your account, see if the deduction is coming through PayPal.
I'm not sure what it... I believe it will say PayPal.
I'm not entirely sure.
The challenge right now is you have to log into your account at TimCast.com, cancel it, and then re-sign up using Parallel Economy.
And there's bad news.
This means that if, let's say you sign up using PayPal on the first of the month, you get charged on the first of the month.
If you cancel now, it'll charge you the full $10 through Parallel Economy.
The solution there is email us, members at TimCast.com.
We are issuing refunds, basically giving you the benefit of the free month because of what PayPal did.
Because we have to be able to retain customers.
Like, I want to break this down because I got to get into the specifics of legal issues here.
Re-sign up using Parallel Economy, send us an email, and we will try and get you the rest of the month off because, you know, you've already paid for it, right?
So we're trying to make sure we can do that right.
It's challenging because the initial sign-up needs to have that transaction go through.
So I'm particularly pissed off that PayPal did this.
So here's what I'm saying.
You are under no obligation to be a member at TimCast.com.
If you don't like our options, if you don't like PayPal, by all means, man, do what you think is right by you.
I hope many of you are willing to stay and become members and support us because this is it.
We've been using Parallel Economy for months to preempt this.
I have been advocating for people to get off PayPal for a long time.
And I'm not just going to terminate everybody who's a member who already uses PayPal because that's just... Look.
Let's talk about Disney, for instance.
They suck.
They've done a lot of really awful things.
But I don't tell people just to get rid of their Disney because it's not... It's...
It's not realistic.
People like watching Disney Entertainment, and you get a lot for that 10 bucks or whatever.
What I do say is, The Daily Wire, TimCast, and many others are producing entertainment that hopefully will someday supplant what they're making over at Disney.
But I say this, if you're convicted, if you really believe in what you believe, then you should cancel those services and subscribe to, say, Crowder, Daily Wire, or TimCast.com.
Realistically, I'm going to compete and earn your membership.
We're doing the best we can.
Castcastle Vlogs are shaping up, getting better by the minute.
Tales from the Inverted World's got a new show coming out.
We really are trying to build something that will convince you to get away from Netflix and Amazon and these other platforms.
But hey, I'll tell you.
I use Amazon.
I don't have a Netflix.
I don't have a... I have a Disney, but it was because I bought it last year for one year, so it's probably expiring soon or something like that.
Here's the point.
We hope each and every one of you who is on PayPal re-signs up using Parallel Economy, not just to support us, not just to make a statement about PayPal, but to support Parallel Economy.
This is a financial transaction service that if we all start using, the wokeness stops.
You see how fast PayPal backed down?
Let me show you this one from Yahoo.
PayPal pulls back, says it won't fine customers $2,500 for misinformation after backlash.
That's because of you.
That's because each and every one of you said no.
Now to be honest, It's largely about Elon Musk and these other, the PayPal mafia they call it, coming out and saying no.
Look at this, PayPal's down 4.5%.
unidentified
Good.
Good.
tim pool
Here's what's worrying.
When I got this news, I'm like, hey, a large portion of our memberships are PayPal.
Even though we took it off the site months ago, many people remain with PayPal.
Even though we've said over and over again, switch over.
But, you know, look, if you want to stay, keep using it, fine.
We have tried to be the most reasonable we can.
I don't want to make it too hard for people.
I think I may have... Let me explain something.
A lot of people who sign up for TimCast.com use PayPal.
They don't think twice about it.
That means if they see this news, and they don't really pay attention all that much, they don't watch the shows regularly, they cancel on us, we don't get them back.
We have already lost more users than have switched over.
And that's worrying.
But we knew it was going to happen, and we hate PayPal to begin with.
So I regret using them in the first place.
But I hope many of you re-sign back up using Parallel Economy.
Again, to support Parallel Economy, we need to get them more and more users.
We need to make that company, we need to make Rumble, we need to make these alternatives bigger and bigger and bigger.
So I hope so.
But I want to talk about the legal element real quick.
PayPal didn't change their terms as I mentioned.
PayPal issued a false statement.
It was an error.
So I equate it this way, and maybe I'm wrong, but I'll talk to a lawyer about this, because we've already lost a lot of money we're not getting back from people canceling outright.
Not on us, shutting down their PayPal accounts.
If I hire a security guard, And it's a contract, right?
Contract to a security company.
And they say, as part of the agreement, you grant us, you know, full right, full access to the building to be able to open and lock doors as we deem necessary for security reasons.
Right?
Okay, right.
Well, that's reasonable.
If they then came at two in the morning and opened the door, what can I say?
What if they came at 2 in the morning, opened the door, and then left?
And then they said, that wasn't actually for security reasons.
That was a mistake.
We accidentally breached your security and left the door open.
That's the opposite of what they're supposed to be providing, right?
See, that is not in line with our agreement.
You don't get to make mistakes.
You don't get to break my vase, admit you broke it, and then be like, but we're allowed to break it.
No, you're not.
You're allowed to handle the vase, not break it.
I would argue PayPal saying this was a mistake, admitting they made a mistake, was not a contract change.
It was them admitting their false statements have caused damage to all of those who use that platform.
I think they're responsible.
Although I'm sure, I'm sure they've got something in their terms that says, you will hold PayPal harmless, blah blah blah.
I'll talk to my lawyers about it.
And I'll see.
Because I think PayPal owes me a lot of money for damages.
We lost a lot of money.
That's true.
That's reality.
Because a lot of people just cancel their accounts without thinking twice.
Hopefully those people come back.
They realize, hey, wait a minute, I'm not logged into TeamCast anymore.
Hopefully they sign back up.
This is where we are right now.
Now here's where it gets interesting.
PayPal claims it was an error, right?
Let me show you this real quick.
Here's the stock.
Down 4.78% in the last five days.
Congratulations PayPal, you're hurting everybody.
So PayPal says it was an error.
Quote, an acceptable use policy notice recently went out in error.
That included incorrect information.
PayPal's not fining people for misinformation, and this language was never intended to be inserted into our policy.
Our teams are working to correct our policy pages.
We're sorry for the confusion this has caused.
The course reversal comes after the policy changes started to attract media scrutiny, as well as criticism on Twitter.
Former PayPal president David Marcus even blasted the company over the implication that it could seize customers' money for finding their views objectionable.
Define misinformation.
You can't.
That's the problem.
Or I should say, exemplify misinformation.
You can define it as information intended to be false.
To spread false information.
But, who's the arbiter of that?
unidentified
Here's where it gets interesting.
tim pool
This Twitter user, KingTitan, says, I have irrefutable evidence PayPal is lying.
They say the notice went out in error, but it was uploaded to their website since at least Tuesday, the 27th of September, 2022, at 2233 UTC, as attested by archive.org here.
2022 at 2233 UTC as attested by archive.org here.
I even found who wrote it.
Now I don't know that this is true.
This is just a random tweet that I thought was interesting, and it's got hundreds of retweets.
But there is an archive showing from paypalobjects.com marketing UAPDF acceptable use full.
Last updated November 3rd, it says, but you can see here, September 27th, 2022.
And it mentions, they can fine you in liquidating damages up to $2,500 per violation, which includes, let's see, show personal information, encourage, promote, facilitate to engage in illegal activity, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Involve products and identified, yada yada yada, where is it here?
Involve the sending, obscene, harassing, blah blah blah, self-harm, depict, promote, incite hatred, here you go, this is it.
That if you are involved in sending, posting, or publishing any messages, content, or materials, that in their sole discretion, depict, promote, or incite hatred, or discrimination, or protected groups of individuals, based on protected characteristics, blah blah blah.
You get the point.
If you offend certain groups and they see fit, they can take your money.
There you go.
That's it.
Now, I don't know if this goes on to talk about the... Well, I can just... We'll just look for misinformation.
There you go.
There it is.
Promote misinformation or unlawful.
There it is.
In number five.
That's the hateful conduct one too, right?
Yep.
If you are hateful or promote misinformation, they can take your money.
This is from- I have this up on archive, so I don't know- I don't know what this is or whatever, but there it is.
It's real.
It's very, very real.
And it's creepy.
I want to show you something.
I want to show you something totally unrelated, but not really.
Seemingly unrelated.
Lauren Boebert tweeted two words, let's go Brandon.
And then she was mocked by David Hogg, George Takei, Chip Franklin, John Cooper, because they didn't realize she was mocking a viral story about Joe Biden.
And she was ratioed.
And it was masterful.
And it's not the first time Lauren Boebert has done this.
There's a reason why I bring this up in this context.
PayPal is only pulling back because the cult wasn't strong enough.
Because too many prominent individuals and too many regular people started canceling their accounts and saying no.
And that's it.
Here's why I brought the Lauren Boebert thing.
These people are in a cult.
They don't know a major viral story just occurred.
Lauren Boebert, dumb as dirt or unable to count.
George Dikaisis, she can't count.
These people are in a cult.
They don't know a major viral story just occurred.
They don't know that on CNBC, Biden said, I'm going to start with two words, made in
unidentified
America, which is three words.
tim pool
Lauren Boebert was commenting on a CNBC broadcast of Joe Biden, probably more networks, mind you, of him saying the exact thing.
That's how you know it's a cult.
These people don't actually watch the news.
They have no idea what's going on.
All they do is swarm around each other and say nonsense at each other.
PayPal's exploiting that.
They want more of these people.
I bring this up because it's good news.
The cult wasn't strong enough, but I believe I genuinely believe PayPal was trial ballooning this.
But you know what?
It doesn't matter my opinion.
What matters is what they admitted to.
And they admitted to a mistake that's costing lots of money for lots of people.
So if you're a business that used PayPal and you are losing customers because of the mistake they made, I believe PayPal's responsible for that mistake.
I would be surprised, but maybe, maybe I'm just wrong.
That if they included in their terms of service that they can engage in mistakes, errors that cause damage to your business and you waive any responsibility.
That to me...
There may be something like, you know, you will hold us harmless in the event that, you know, you lose customers due to the actions taken by PayPal or something like that, but I don't believe they can... I don't think that you can contractually argue you're allowed to screw up and not be responsible for it.
It's just like...
I hire a security company and they say they're allowed to open my windows and then they break the window and then argue, well, we are allowed to open them, but you agreed to hold us harmless for the actions we took in defense of your property.
It's like, I don't think you breaking my window is in defense of my property.
I don't think they can argue that they have a right to do stuff like that.
I could be wrong.
But again, I'll be talking to my lawyer.
This is where we're currently at, my friends.
The social credit score is upon us.
This is that system.
But you know what?
Parallel Economy exists.
And you can go to TimCast.com and support both TimCast and Parallel Economy, Tim Poole and Dan Bongino, by becoming a member and using their services.
I want to stress this.
We have a lot of people who are still members over at PayPal.
And while I said, look, if you want to keep using PayPal, by all means, just, you know, you're good to do it.
Because we want to make things realistic.
We want to make it easy.
We want to compete with these systems and win.
But this, my friends, is a five alarm fire.
This is a red alert.
PayPal tried to do this.
And at the very least, they have someone writing these policies.
It is time.
If you are using PayPal, go to TimCast.com.
If you have your own account at PayPal, you can cancel your account.
You can do whatever you find reasonable, and then sign up at TimCast.com using Parallel Economy.
If you signed up at TimCast.com using PayPal as a guest, which would mean it was a long time.
You've been a long-time member, and I really appreciate that.
You can open your profile, cancel your account, and then re-sign up using Parallel Economy.
I wish there were a better way to do it.
We do not have the most sophisticated technology.
We are working on building up and making our site better every day.
If we had 2 million users like some of these other platforms, if we had 200 million users like some of the big networks, we'd be fixing this stuff overnight.
We can only build what we can afford to build.
That's one way to do it.
If you do re-sign up, I do believe it will charge you for the rest of the month.
So maybe what you can do is you can wait until right before the end of the month, then cancel, and then re-sign up using Parallel Economy.
Or if you're happy to just support us, cancel your PayPal, become a new member, it'll charge you the 10 bucks again, and if you're cool with that, it does help us out.
Or you can, look, there's always options when you sign up.
You can give as much as you want to give.
We do have plans for the higher tiers.
We're working on it.
We're trying to figure out the best way to go about, you know, creating different tiers.
Daily Wire, of course, has their, like, read-only tier, then their video tier, and then their, like, super member tier, like, with movies and everything.
And I think we'd be smart to do that because we just started off being like, it's ten bucks a month because we produce extra segments, but the more shows we make, the more expensive it gets, so it's not It's like, we want to make more shows, but eventually it's just like, we gotta charge more money.
So we're trying to figure it out.
We do.
I think Daily Wire, it's like $12 for their video content or something.
For us it's $10.
We don't have full length movies or anything, but I suppose it's simple enough to say, all we really need is more members.
More members means we can do more stuff.
That's it.
Less members means you do less stuff.
So when PayPal members are closing their accounts, we're getting hit by this.
It is a rainstorm.
It is a rainy day.
But you know what?
I would rather lose the money from people canceling their accounts than see PayPal get away with trying to create a social credit score system where they can fine you money for spreading what they deem at their sole discretion hate speech or misinformation.
This is why several months ago, we said, no more PayPal.
It's why several months ago, in fact, I think it's almost a year ago now, we've been working on setting up Parallel Economy.
We've had it up for several months, and we were working on it for a longer time than that, because we had to build the infrastructure to do it.
So I implore all of you, reach out, tweet at Dan Bongino, Dan, maybe you can address this.
What can we do to make Parallel Economy replace this kind of stuff?
You know what you guys need?
I go to the grocery store and I see the Square Terminal.
I see these payments things.
Parallel Economy needs that.
So when you've got a brick-and-mortar shop, you go on the Public Square app and you can assert your loyalty to American values, your belief in American values.
Those businesses that use that, They should be using Parallel Economy for their transactions.
The rates are better, the promises are better, the people are better, and we have to do this.
We have to build it up.
So let me stress it again.
When you become a member at TimCast.com using Parallel Economy, when you switch over from PayPal to Parallel Economy, Stripe is fine.
The guys at Stripe are actually pretty okay.
That's why locals use Stripe.
Parallel Economy is better.
But when you switch to Parallel Economy, you are supporting us, and you are helping build a real parallel economy.
You're supporting Dan Bongino and Parallel Economy, so let's just get it, man!
Daily Wire should be using them as well.
I don't know.
I don't know who they use, but... I'll say it again.
I think, you know, I think, like, Rubin met with the Stripe guys a while ago.
Locals uses Stripe.
Stripe has actually done a pretty good job.
When we had a problem over at Stripe, the CEO himself responded, and I have tremendous respect for that.
I think they're trying really hard to play the game right, but... My chips are on parallel economy.
Okay, fine.
There.
I said it a million times.
I'll leave it there.
Next segment's coming up at 4 p.m.
over at youtube.com slash timcast.
Thanks for hanging out, and I'll see you all then.
In order to spark maximum outrage, I'll start this segment outright by saying, yes, the science shows that liberal women have a tendency to be mentally ill, and they are substantially more likely to be unhappy.
But there's a lot to break down in what all of this means.
A few months ago, Tucker Carlson was asked about being called a racist.
He said, racist?
I have no problem with black people.
My problem is with liberal women.
And the media loved it.
They said, Tucker Carlson admits he has a problem with liberal women.
And looking at that, you'd say that Tucker Carlson is a sexist.
But hold on.
Once again, the issue is not about an immutable characteristic.
It's not about the sex of the individual.
It's about the political leanings of the individual, which is interesting.
In these studies, we find that it's liberal women, and often liberal men, In fact, it is the liberal which actually separates whether or not someone will be happy or unhappy, which I find quite fascinating.
In a new study published by UnHerd, we can see that conservative women, 61%, say they're completely satisfied with their family life, whereas somewhere around the low 30% of liberal women say the same thing.
So it is not about being a woman, it is in fact about being a conservative or a liberal.
Now, the politics are amorphous, and they change quite a bit.
But Tucker Carlson makes a point that when you break it down, there is something about being a liberal that makes people angry, unhappy, or mentally ill, or that people who are mentally ill, angry, and unhappy tend to be liberal.
It can go either way.
I suppose you can decide for yourself.
But a story like this really exemplifies something.
This woman, who behind the scenes was saying racist things, was lying to the public.
Which makes me wonder about why someone is going to be angry and happy mentally ill and have a correlation with being liberal.
And now, as circuitous and as confusing as this can be, it comes back to modern media.
What we see is a big story, another big story today, that Democrats created a fake news network to push Democrat ideas and prop up Democrat candidates.
And Democrats fall for this stuff.
In a tweet from Lauren Boebert mocking Joe Biden, high profile liberal personalities believed she originated the gaffe.
You may be familiar with it.
Joe Biden said, I have two words, made in America.
In response, everybody started making fun of Joe Biden, including Lauren Boebert, who said, two words, let's go, Brandon.
I think we made a similar joke on TimCast IRL, mocking Joe Biden.
But if you are someone who lives in a world of lies and deception, and you just believe the lies from the corporate press, you will probably believe you're on the right side.
Or, perhaps it's fair to say that if you are more likely to have a mental illness, you will be more easily deceived by all of this.
I want to pause and just say, honestly, I don't know.
I don't know cause correlation, which comes first.
I can only show you the science, the data, and it's real.
I can give you my personal opinions on this and what it means, but what we can really say is, we have several studies Women, liberal women, tend to be more unhappy.
Liberal women, more than 50% report having mental illnesses.
And, a study from Yale showing that liberals talk down to minorities.
So, when the right says the left are the real racists, the left are unhappy and all that stuff, Yeah, there's something true there.
And maybe it has nothing to do with the words liberal or conservative.
Maybe what this is really about is that these words liberal and conservative don't really mean anything other than tribe.
And after a long enough period of time and a shift in politics, many people who used to be liberal now find themselves being called conservatives, and thus conservatives tend to be the more well-rounded faction when it comes to modern politics.
We're going to read the news a little bit, but I want to talk to you namely about the fact that liberal women tend to be unhappy, tend to be mentally ill, and liberals apparently tend to be racist as well.
Maybe this is just political propaganda, I don't know.
But when I was reading this news story about this woman, Nurie Martinez, I thought, why do things like this happen all the time and why do people fall for this?
Why do people march behind individuals claiming to support BLM who turn out to be racist?
Where is your discerning thought pattern?
Where are the individuals?
Ah, there it is.
The people who have the ability to separate fact from fiction, who do the fact-checking, and who are of sound mind, tend to drift away from these kinds of politics.
So maybe the reality is, those who are mentally ill tend to fall into democratic politics because they're easily manipulated.
But let's read!
Before we get started, my friends, head over to TimCast.com and become a member to support our work as a member.
You'll get access to the Uncensored Members Show from TimCast IRL, as well as Cast Castle and Tales from the Inverted World, and you'll be supporting our journalists directly.
Our journalists write the news every day, and it's only because you are members that we're able to keep doing this.
So don't forget to also smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends.
Now let's read, and I'll start.
By briefly mentioning the story about Nuri Martinez resigning.
Again, the point here is, she is a Democrat, she is in office, but behind the scenes, she's racist.
Calling some guy's son a monkey, and saying that some people were quote-unquote, with the blacks.
Very offensive.
And it resulted in fear of rioting, so much so that a battalion of police officers were mobilized to protect her home.
Andy Noh reports, her house last night was being protected from leftist rioters following the audio leak.
She was one of the LA City Council members who pushed for the same police to be defunded by others.
And now we get to the start of where my mind was lingering today.
I thought about this and I was like, this woman's a racist, but they call Tucker Carlson a racist?
And then it all started to draw this line.
And then I was like, man, We have these studies showing liberal women are unhappy, they're mentally ill, and then we have all these stories about them behind the scenes being racist.
From The Independent, Tucker Carlson admits he hates white liberal women more than anything.
I'm not mad at black people.
July 7th, 2022.
So let's begin.
Let's begin the narrative arc.
From The Washington Post, white liberals dumb themselves down when they speak to black people.
A new study contends.
A new study, yes.
From Yale.
BigThink.com.
So that was The Washington Post.
We also have BigThink.com.
White liberals dumbed down speech when talking to minorities.
The study examined how Democratic and Republican presidential candidates used language when speaking to black and white audiences.
A second study focused on how white people use language in emails to strangers with stereotypically white or black names.
The lead researcher called the findings, kind of an unpleasant surprise.
Now, this plays into the first story.
The science backs it up.
And then links us to the Tucker Carlson story.
And Tucker calls out liberal women, for which he is smeared.
So let's get into the crux of the thesis here.
From unheard.com, why are liberals less happy than conservatives?
Now, first, when you look at figure one in this graph here, using YouGov data posted by UnHerd,
we can see that the unhappiest group among the four liberal women, 15%
15% completely satisfied with life compared to 19% of liberal men, 32% of conservative men, and 31% of conservative women.
So conservative men tend to be the most satisfied.
But let's read.
They say liberals, especially liberal women, are significantly less likely to be happy with their lives and satisfied with their mental health, compared to their conservative peers aged 18 to 55.
This is the big takeaway from the 2022 American Family Survey, a striking new poll from YouGov and the Deseret News, which found that liberals are about 15 percentage points less likely to be completely satisfied with their lives.
The survey goes on to find that liberals are about 18 points less likely to be completely satisfied with their mental health than conservatives.
So once again, now we're getting into mental illness.
Figure 2.
Liberals less satisfied with mental health, completely satisfied with mental health by sex and ideology percentage.
We can see that conservative men and women are the same at 36%.
Liberal men are at 21 and liberal women are the lowest at 15.
This is a major important point.
Women White.
Black.
Religion.
Those don't appear to be the characteristics which define whether someone will be happy.
In fact, the characteristic that defines happiness appears to be liberal or conservative.
They go to mention.
Liberals are less happy with family life, according to Figure 3.
Completely satisfied with family by sex and ideology.
Liberal women are at 36% compared to 61% of conservative women and 49% of conservative men.
Now this is relative.
These polls are comparative.
Comparing liberal women to conservative women.
But when we actually get into the science, we notice something particularly interesting.
And that is that liberal women tend to have higher rates of mental illness.
Let me, I'll jump to this one.
Actually, you know what?
I'll address this tweet right here real quick as we move on.
One thing I noticed, and this plays into the media, which I want to get into in a second, but, you know, I kind of misorganized here.
When you see that conservative women are more satisfied with family life than liberal women, and then you see videos like this.
Alex Dine tweeted, this song is absolutely insane to listen to.
It's a rap song about women getting abortions because they don't want to have baby daddies.
Well, okay.
I wonder if there is something to do with abortion as to why conservative women are more satisfied.
But here we go.
Let's just get into it.
From the Washington Free Beacon.
White liberals more likely to have mental health problems.
Majority of young white female liberals have a diagnosed mental health condition, according to Pew Research.
Now, I've shown you the UnHerd report showing that liberals, male or female, are less happy than conservatives, with liberal women being the more unhappy of the group.
We now have this story from just about a year and a half ago.
It says, White liberals are significantly more likely than other racial and ideological groups to be diagnosed with a mental health condition according to science.
According to THE science.
The findings from Pew Research Center Survey, published in March 2020, were the subject of a recent Twitter thread that inspired an EV Magazine article on the possible scientific correlation between progressive ideas and mental illness.
According to the survey, white liberals of all ages were more likely to have been diagnosed with a mental health condition compared with their moderate and conservative peers.
The disparity was especially pronounced among young people aged 18 to 29, the most annoying demographic and the one with the worst opinions, generally speaking.
Well, I appreciate your opinion on the matter, Andrew Stiles, but I can certainly say that's one of the most vocal when it comes to cancel culture and social media.
They say, Nearly half of young white liberals, 46%, reported being diagnosed with a mental health condition.
That was significantly higher than the percentage of young white moderates, at 26%, and young white conservatives, 21%, who reported a mental health diagnosis.
Young white people who identified as very liberal were considerably more likely to report mental health problems.
Now stop.
Here we can see it again.
The through line is that liberals as a whole tend to have higher rates of mental illness, be it male or female, with liberal women having the highest rates.
In fact, I believe liberal women are the only group rated as having more than 50% say they've been diagnosed with a mental health condition.
Evie Magazine wrote, April 13th, 2021, over 50% of liberal white women under 30 have a mental health issue.
Are we worried yet?
No, no, okay, okay, let me clarify.
Liberal women over a certain age are less likely to have reported mental health issues.
But let's get an actual graph here.
It's from March 19th.
March 24, 2020.
This is what people were using in their reference.
Now, it's hard to see here on the left, but I'll explain.
Zach Goldberg said, some of you asked for it, so here is the last chart broken down by gender.
The biggest gap within age X ideological group is between white liberal men and women.
White liberal men report 33.6% report having been diagnosed with a mental health condition between the ages of 18 and 29.
30 and 49 is 29.7.
50 to 64 is 18.7.
65 plus is 15.
Thirty and forty-nine is twenty-nine point seven, fifty to sixty-four is eighteen point
seven, sixty-five plus is fifteen.
As you get older, the number of people reporting mental health diagnoses goes down.
That means that when these eighteen to twenty-nine year olds who are reporting very high rates
of mental illness diagnoses, when they're in their sixty-fives, that number will stay
the same because they're the same age group.
But here we can see white liberal women have the highest rates among all demographics relative to men, relative to moderate or conservative, That means that there is something about being a woman, because across the board you can see that women do report higher rates of mental illness diagnosis, but it is liberal.
Between liberal men and women reporting higher rates.
So, if you are liberal, you have higher rates.
That's it.
The more conservative you get, the lower the rate of diagnosed mental illness.
Some have argued.
The answer to this is actually quite simple.
And it's that conservatives are unwilling to go to the doctor.
Actually, there's a different answer.
And it may be that people who have diagnosed mental illnesses are more susceptible to manipulation and less likely to discern reality.
Conservatives, who are more discerning and act more logically than liberals, or I should say people who are more discerning and act more logically, just probably are more conservative.
This is the thing.
In response to the, I don't know if I have the tweet pulled up, from UnHerd, talking about the unhappiness, Matthew Iglesias, formerly of Vox, says, could it actually be that unhappy people tend to be liberal?
That people who are unhappy with the status quo say, I'm going to vote Democrat to vote for change, whereas people who are happy with the way things are don't want them to change.
It's a fair point, but it does not account for mental illness, only happiness.
In fact, I think the fact that white liberal women tend to be more unhappy and tend to be more mentally ill shows where the party is going to go, not what the party is doing to people.
That is to say, if your party is predominantly of these people... Well, actually, I should rephrase that.
I should correct myself.
I think that if you have a political party dominated by people who are more mentally ill and people who are more unhappy, they will be the driving voice of what this party does, and it will become increasingly more unhinged and then rope more people into an increasingly unhinged ideology.
From Vox.com 2018.
Republicans have a millennial women problem.
Nearly 70% of young women say they are leaning toward Democratic candidates in the midterms.
It's hard to concisely identify this and bring it all together, but the point is quite simple.
70% of millennial women are voting Democrat. Or I should say, yes, 70% of
millennials vote Democrat. And that means they tend to have high rates of mental illness, these
Democratic female voters, and the males do too. Here's my point. When people claim that Tucker Carlson
is racist, or the people on the right are racist or sexist or whatever, what I think is
actually happening is that liberal and conservative don't actually mean anything anymore.
Look, by all accounts, 10 years ago I was a liberal.
Some people are trying to, you know, they say, you know, in 2012 libertarian, 2016 MAGA, 2020, you know, apocalypse, civil war, all that stuff.
And they're like, hey, like Tim Pool.
I'm like, what are you talking about?
I was a Bernie bro.
I was ranting about Bernie Sanders and, you know, look, on gun policy he was moderate, he was for a secure border.
That wasn't a libertarian position.
But here's what ends up happening.
Over a long enough period of time, if you have a group of people with a higher rate of mental illness saying things that are nonsensical, you have a higher rate of people who are more willing to believe whatever they see on TV, you are going to get a political faction that is in a death spiral.
You have someone lying, someone believing that lie, repeating the lie, and then the lie gets mangled and manipulated through a cycle of unhappiness, anger, violence, and mental illness.
And that has become liberal.
Liberal didn't used to mean that.
Liberal meant, you know, like, live and let live.
There was a tweet I saw from Matthew Iglesias.
Again, no Vox.
Apparently I follow the guy a lot, huh?
How about that?
And he said it was funny that bread-and-butter conservatives now have the position of protecting girls' sports when, you know, 10 or so years ago, they wanted to get rid of it outright.
Or maybe 20 years ago.
The idea was that Title IX shouldn't protect the funding for women's sports, and all of a sudden they're like, protect women's sports from transgender ideology.
My response was, it's because liberals quit.
It's because liberals quit the Democratic Party and said the Republicans are making more sense.
Republicans responding to the expansion of their voter base became slightly more moderate.
This all comes together.
Conservatives, for some reason, have drifted moderate.
They're okay with gay marriage.
They're defending women's sports.
And people are surprised by this.
Many of these liberals, older ones, who can't seem to realize what's going on, think they're talking about Newt Gingrich and John McCain.
But that Republican Party is long since gone.
I know Newt Gingrich is still commenting, but that is long gone.
There's a new political party.
Former Democrats, former liberals said, I'm not voting for you.
It doesn't mean they're conservatives.
But now, because these people are being called conservative, people like me, what is left is liberals and Democrats correlating directly with mental illness and unhappiness.
And among many liberal women.
So, it is not wrong to say if 56% Of millennial liberal women are mentally ill.
There's a tendency towards that.
I don't mean a majority across the board because as I pointed out among older 30 to 49 it's only 39 percent among 50 to 64 it's 26 and among 65 plus it's 15 so it does go down a bit but there is a tendency relative to other factions among females to be more mentally ill and again You know, it's this.
Liberal is a defining factor, because you can see it across the board.
However, liberal women have a higher tendency.
And that's what it is.
Now, take a look at the modern Democratic Party.
If millennial women in great numbers are supporting all of this, you have to wonder what it's all about.
Alright, here's a story.
Democrats create fake local news sites in swing states ahead of midterm elections.
The operation stealthily boosts Democrat candidates and attacks Republican candidates.
They fall for it.
Now, of course, NewsGuard does mention there is a Republican version of this.
But the Republicans, honestly, not as good at it.
There was a profile on some woman a while ago, a few years ago, where she had created another version of this.
They do it a lot.
But you know what?
Okay, fine, fine.
Fair point.
Republicans have their version in, like, the Tennessee Star or whatever these websites are.
They're conservative sites acting like local news.
I should say, they're local news websites with a conservative perspective.
I think there's a lot of problems there.
But, okay, fine.
Let's break down Let's break down how this cult emerges.
Here it is.
Endwokeness tweets LMAO at Lauren Boebert baited the blue checks into mocking Biden's latest gaffe.
Lauren Boebert's a Republican conservative woman.
She tweeted two words.
Let's go, Brandon.
But hey, you may be thinking, that's three words.
That's the joke.
Because Joe Biden said, math is, I have two words, made in America.
The headline of this Washington Examiner article from October 7th, math is hard, Biden has two words, made in America.
The funny thing is, that's what they're actually saying about Lauren Boebert, that she can't do math.
Here's what this proves.
Now these are dudes, mind you.
David Hogg, Chip Franklin, George Takei, John Cooper.
They're all making fun of Lauren Boebert.
These people clearly don't even know what their own president, the one they support, says.
Who would fall for something like that?
Mentally ill people.
What will that do?
It will make them unhappy.
Primarily, it's affecting women.
Why?
Honestly, I don't know.
But maybe it has something to do with, for some reason, liberal women are just less likely to watch the news.
So they don't know.
I can tell you this.
In this channel, for instance, viewership is like 10% female.
It's like 11%, I think.
It's 89% male.
Surprised?
Why would you be?
Timcast IRL, I think, is actually about 20% female.
So that's actually 1 in 5 viewers is female.
For whatever reason, that's the way it is.
So I wonder why.
Maybe it's because there is social pressure towards fitting in.
We see this with Instagram.
Women are more likely to face anxiety and depression due to Instagram than men.
Maybe there is a male-female difference in that regard.
Maybe it's just in order to fit in as a dude, you have options.
You can play video games and keep your face quiet or, I mean, covered.
Or you can do sports.
For women, it's mostly about social positioning and fitting in with the status quo, the ideas.
Could be wrong.
Maybe it's about looking good.
There are stories about women who will post a picture of themselves on Instagram, and if they don't get enough likes, they panic, delete it, and then repost a different one hoping to get more likes.
That could be a factor.
It could be something to do with being a woman.
But I kind of feel like when you see these dudes clearly not watching the news, the key defining factor, it all comes full circle.
Liberal versus conservative.
Liberals don't know the president they voted for supported this.
Millennial women tend to lean liberal.
It all just wraps up into a neat little bow, to a neat little bun.
I think the defining factor between liberal and conservative today really comes down to, do you read the news?
Do you know what's going on?
In the end, if women are more driven by social factors between men and women and less... I'll put it this way.
If they're driven by subjective measures and not objective measures, then you are likely going to see this play out exactly as it is.
There are many conservative women.
They have families.
Apparently they're very happy with their families.
Women who are married tend to be more conservative.
So it all just is really fascinating.
Now, I suppose the thumbnail in the title will be some kind of bait, pointing out obvious studies that show the science, I call it the science on purpose, but really what I'm kind of getting at is all of this in one big whirlpool.
I described this this way a few years ago, that the left, the wokeness, is like this spiral that's going faster and faster and spinning out of control, and eventually it ejects people.
These people are forced, red-pilled, and wake up.
The way I see it, You have people like David Hogg.
We'll use him as an example.
He's a guy, of course.
Right, so that's why I said liberal and conservative is more defining.
Three words, you're an idiot.
Did David Hogg not know the news?
George Takei, does he not know the news?
Do they not watch Biden speak?
Apparently they don't.
They then tweet these things out.
Lauren Boebert is so dumb, she did X. People who don't pay attention to the news and just get their information filtered through personalities they find agreeable will now go on believing that thing.
Larry Elder went on TimCast.io and he told us that he tried showing evidence to his friends, to a friend of his, that Trump did not say Nazis were very fine people.
His friend said, I will not read it.
He tried reading it.
He got discernibly angry.
I don't want to read this.
I don't know.
Is that mental illness?
Is that some kind of weird social behavior?
Honestly, I don't know.
What I do know is, new data from today shows liberal women are unhappier.
Data from a while ago shows liberal women tend to have mental illness.
And then we can see, over and over again, these people don't read the news.
Maybe that's why they're unhappy.
In the UNHERD study, they also find that conservatives are less focused on worldly issues and more focused on family issues.
Maybe that's why they are happier.
Maybe many of these liberal people, they're being lied to.
They won't accept they're being lied to.
They prefer the comforting lies, and they prefer the anger.
So, I don't know.
It's hard to understand what this is, because it's more than just mental illness.
It's more than just politics.
It's more than just gender.
It's more than just rage.
But there is a correlation, when you look at all of these things together, that shifts all of that negativity, anger, distrust, and ignorance into one space.
And that's ultimately what you get with today's modern liberal movement.
That's why I was liberal, and now I'm called a conservative.
Despite the fact that my politics would land me center-left liberal, I'm still called far-right or conservative because these words are meaningless.
The tendency is, if you want to fit in with what is deemed liberal, you'll just say it.
So I'll bring up that Jon Stewart segment.
You may have seen the problem with Jon Stewart where he says, what is a woman?
It's fascinating because he never actually answers the question.
In the viral segment, Jon Stewart says, it was only 10 or 20 years ago, you know, people were making reductive jokes about the issue of gender.
Hold on there, Jon Stewart.
In this segment, Jon Stewart approaches the definition of what is a woman from a social construct perspective.
He goes on a list, alpha, beta, gamma, male, soy boys, tomboys, you know, and whatever.
And says, look at the spectrum of men and women.
As if that defines men and women.
At all.
In any way.
This is Jon Stewart being in the cult.
Either he choose to ignore reality and actually address the question, what does woman mean?
Well, there's a simple definition, adult human female.
You want to talk about the subcategories of adult human females and what it means to be a woman or means to be a man, by all means have that conversation.
But this is why I say it's a cult.
And cults, they target people who are unwell, they target people who are unhappy.
You gotta lie to them and keep them in the dark.
That's how cults work.
So there it is.
I don't know.
Admittedly, I feel like I'm a bit all over the place, but seeing that story about that Nuri Martinez, I'm like, how do people fall for this over and over again?
Okay, let's just go for it, right?
Jussie Smollett was a hoax.
Ahmaud Arbery was a hoax.
Ukrainegate was a hoax.
Russiagate was a hoax.
The Covenant Catholic Kids, that was a hoax.
Hands Up, Don't Shoot, that was a hoax.
The Trayvon Martin stuff, all of that was a hoax.
I mean, the Jussie Smollett one is just mind-blowing.
That people actually believed that a D-list celebrity walking around at 3 a.m.
in a non-residential part of Chicago was attacked by two Trump supporters.
They believed it!
And that's because they don't want to read the news.
They want to just believe it.
I don't know why, man.
Maybe you can't break them out because they're mentally ill.
I'm not trying to be mean to people who are mentally ill.
I'm not trying to be mean to women.
I'm not trying to be mean to liberals.
I don't think liberal is the defining issue.
I think liberal is just a misappropriated word that is now being associated with mental illness and unhappiness.
Anger.
It's why Antifa is going around with no real rhyme or reason and just smashing things.
It's just become rage.
I described it this way several years ago.
A chaotic and destructive force.
I say it's chaotic because there's no way to satiate this.
There's no direct goals.
This woman, this Nuri Martinez, apparently is racist, but just goes and lies about it.
Grifters.
There's a viral video of Hasan Piker being asked about boxing Sam Hyde.
And he starts insulting this small guy and getting in his face.
And I'm just like, why is that?
What is it with these people they behave this way?
Why won't they come and sit down and have a conversation?
It is a social drive, not a logical one.
It is an emotional social drive.
It is mental illness.
It is all of these things.
I don't think we're going to get anywhere by trying to have conversations with people who don't read the news, who aren't mentally well, who are just angry and emotional.
So how do you solve the problem?
Man, I really don't have the answer for you on that one.
But I'm just sick and tired of reading these stories, you know?
When I hear a story like, you know, Kanye West comes out, he's had a bunch of crazy things, I'm like, yeah, come on, man!
Look, we can talk about Kanye saying some good things, but he put up some tweet about Death Con 3 against Jewish people, and I'm like, the dude is still in that sphere of that space.
He's just kind of started reading the news and has called out some things that are obvious and bought into a whole bunch of insane things.
What I mean is, when he talks about, like, Trump and the economy, I was like, yeah, obviously.
But when Kanye comes out and says weird stuff about Jewish people directing Diddy or whatever, it's like, okay, bro, you're reading nonsense.
You're believing nonsense.
You can go too far.
That's a reality, too.
Not everybody on the right is a saint.
The right has its mental illness as well.
You can argue that everybody has their mental illness.
The right has some.
The left has more.
I wonder.
I really do.
unidentified
You know, I'll break it down for you.
tim pool
Reading these news stories, it all just comes back to, you know, why is it, 2018, white liberal women tend to be Democrat.
Tucker Carlson, I got a problem with white liberal men.
Mental illness among white liberal women, among liberal women in general.
Higher rates.
Liberal woman resigns.
Turns out she's racist and she was lying about it the whole time.
Look, it happens among guys.
The resignation, I don't think, is necessarily indicative of just males or females.
I think it really comes down to liberal or conservative.
And then, to break down the understanding of what liberal and conservative is today, it has nothing to do with politics.
I can say I'm pro-progressive tax and pro-choice and they'll still call me a conservative.
What does that mean?
If you want to be a liberal, you must blindly agree with whatever insane and unhinged position they present, even if it makes no sense.
But I can sit down with a conservative, and I can disagree on everything.
And they'll call me a liberal.
Therein lies the big problem.
The colloquial liberal doesn't mean what people think it means, so anyway.
You know, I guess I'll just leave it there.
This was not necessarily like a hard news segment.
It's kind of all over the place, but you get the point.
I was just reading these studies.
I saw this unheard thing about liberal and being so unhappy, and I'm like, man, what's causing that?
And then I remembered that they have a higher rate of mental illness, and I'm like, these are unhappy, mentally ill people, and they're voting.
So how do we solve for that?
As a society, we need to.
Next segment's coming up at 8 p.m.
