Elon Musk has a new CEO, and it s a World Economic Forum chair, and she s in talks to become the next CEO of the world's largest social media company. What does this mean for the future of the company, and what will it mean for its future in the eyes of the public?
00:00:21.000Welcome to our special weekend show, Sunday Uncensored.
00:00:24.000Every week we produce four uncensored episodes of the TimCast IRL podcast exclusively at TimCast.com, and we're going to bring you the most important for our weekend show.

00:00:50.000Reclaim the Net says likely new Twitter CEO Linda Iaccarino is a World Economic Forum executive chair that suggested Elon Musk limit his tweets.
00:00:59.000Iaccarino said advertisers need to feel there's an opportunity for them to influence what you're building.
00:01:46.000I don't think that this changes Anything that he's said, I don't know this person and I don't know anything about this person beyond what we're going to read on the internet.
00:01:59.000I don't know what any kind of private conversations have been like.
00:02:01.000I don't know what he's telling anyone that he's entertaining the idea of being CEO, what he expects or anything.
00:02:10.000I don't know how much autonomy he's going to give to them.
00:02:13.000I don't know what it would be like if they walk in there knowing that he just canned everybody less than a year ago.
00:02:19.000I can imagine that they wouldn't feel like they can just go in and do whatever they want.
00:02:25.000No one that's going in there is going to go in blind to the conditions or the context that they're walking into.
00:02:31.000And no one's going to go in there thinking, well, Elon had his fun, but now I'm here to show... I don't imagine that that's going to happen.
00:02:40.000I would, at the very least, give them the chance to see what happens before I start getting doom and gloom.
00:02:48.000But being apprehensive and being skeptical, there's nothing wrong with that at all.
00:03:15.000Well, the timing is really interesting because you just had Tucker announce that he's going to be putting his show on here.
00:03:20.000You already have people like Matt Walsh who are moving to Twitter because of the YouTube deplatforming.
00:03:26.000And so you're in a situation where a lot of people are looking for Twitter to be kind of this new free speech platform that they can take things off of the mainstream and all of a sudden you've got a new CEO, might be connected to certain things.
00:03:38.000You saw a scene in Complaining about the fact that no one would be able to police Tucker Carlson's speech and then all of a sudden here we go, right?
00:03:44.000So you're not putting the tinfoil hat on but it does seem like interesting timing.
00:03:48.000Yeah, there's nothing wrong with being a little on the skeptical side.
00:03:51.000I think that that's the smart thing to do, considering the world that we live in now.
00:03:56.000But at the same time, the guy paid $44 billion so he could save free speech, allegedly.
00:04:04.000I don't think it was to save free speech.
00:04:06.000He turned it into X Corporation already.
00:04:08.000It's because he wants to make American WeChat, and that centralizes authority in a lot of ways.
00:04:16.000I mean, like I said, cautiously optimistic.
00:04:17.000I think he's done a lot of good things for Twitter, and I think him being in charge of Twitter for the time he has been has been good for the discourse, but that doesn't mean he can do no wrong, and that doesn't mean his motives were always pure, right?
00:04:27.000You can be an ultra-conspiracist, right?
00:04:33.000It allows you to escape the government's value system.
00:04:37.000It's not perfect, but it gives you an option, and that's why a lot of people adopted it.
00:04:42.000But think about this, it also tracks everything you do and gives them a window into all your transactions if you don't know what you're doing.
00:04:48.000So I've argued to a lot of the Bitcoin people, if I was a globalist and I was like, how can I get everybody to use a one-world currency?
00:04:56.000The average person doesn't care, but the Alex Joneses of the world are gonna resist like crazy.
00:05:16.000Elon Musk is like, look, let's just say hypothetically, if I'm a globalist CEO and we're all meeting at the World Economic Forum and we're like, these anti-government libertarian types are resisting our global takeover.
00:05:37.000Once they're all dedicated to it, once they believe in it, and they're on it, we convince them they're winning, then we start shifting in the direction we want with them on board already and they're convinced they've won, when actually, they're pushing our machine.
00:06:18.000Tim's just fucking shoehorning black pills down your throat tonight.
00:06:22.000I'm just telling people to be critical thinkers, is all I'm telling them, you know what I mean?
00:06:26.000Tim, you just put a black pill into, like, a little dart gun, and then you just went, and hit it in everybody's throats.
00:06:35.000Because hypothetically so say you're right think about like what the ramifications are that means that the people that believe that this guy was you know helping and all of the things that he's done have been basically subversive and he's On the team of the, you know, the Klaus Schwab's of the world and stuff.
00:06:59.000And then we, then if that is the case.
00:07:02.000He's tweeted about all of this though.
00:07:04.000He's got a whole bunch of tweets about climate change and all that stuff.
00:07:07.000Yes, but the, the, that is true, but the connection to the whole, like, he's going to make the WeChat thing so that way you have to have the, the Vax Passport, et cetera, connecting.
00:07:22.000His property to the state is different, or puts it in a different light.
00:09:27.000And so basically the premise is in the future, life is shit and everybody wants to leave the future and go to the past because it's better.
00:09:34.000And so then they decide... They're immigrants.
00:10:00.000And then all the guys start having sex again.
00:10:03.000But the funny thing is, that seems to be their plan to stop the future from becoming, like, we're literally an episode of South Park.
00:10:09.000The World Economic Forum The Davos group, Bill Gates, are concerned about overpopulation leading to an impoverished, decrepit future, so they're literally telling everybody to have gay orgies.
00:10:22.000Yeah, it's the Goobax episode, by the way, if anyone's looking it up.
00:10:25.000Did you ever see, there was a legendary, when you were talking about the kind of tech gulags that remind me of this, did you ever see the old Onion video?
00:10:33.000It's a fake news report about them unrolling Google's new privacy program, and if you enroll to have privacy from Google, they like put you in a camp where no one can watch you, but you also can't leave.
00:10:43.000It's like, yes, Google's, oh man, it was beautiful.
00:11:34.000And after just two days in the back of a van, you're there.
00:11:38.000We can guarantee that there's no chance of Google.
00:11:41.000The summer is all sunshine, smiles, and road trips.

00:14:25.000Chris and I were scrolling through it this past weekend, and then you and I were scrolling through it, and it was really... Trump condemned for giving a platform to CNN.
00:14:49.000High school student teacher apply for same summer waitressing job.
00:14:52.000Here, I took a screenshot from a couple of the ones that were really egregious this past weekend when I was looking through them because I could not believe that they put them on the website.
00:15:13.000Um, this is, so this is one of their, these are one of their, they did an article on DeSantis where they were writing their jokes and then his funny answers.
00:15:20.000Let me read you some of the funny joke they wrote.
00:15:23.000You've signed legislation to stop schools from becoming woke.
00:16:16.000Conservatives do a way better job making fun of like Trump and other conservatives than anyone on the left does.
00:16:20.000Because the left thinks that all the things that are funny about them are actually like they're too sanctimonious about not to try and you know make jokes about Trump or anything but like the whole if To be funny, you have to be able to laugh at yourself.
00:16:34.000And the left takes all of the things that are funny about them, they take them so seriously that they can't laugh at themselves.
00:16:43.000Once you've kind of defined the world in terms where everyone has to pretend that a man can become a woman, absurdity is kind of out the door.
00:17:30.000The only thing he was trying to do is make sure that he said the right answer that wouldn't get him shit on the leftist mafia show that he was gonna be on.
00:17:37.000I loved it when he said trans women are females.
00:18:31.000There's this weird thing where you simultaneously have to be aware of every piece of identity and everything that's implied by it, but you also are not allowed to publicly notice identity and the things that make it different.
00:18:43.000A lot of things you're not allowed to notice.
00:18:45.000No, but again, simultaneously you have to hold both in your hand.
00:18:47.000I pulled up the Babylon Bee and That was a good one!
00:19:45.000So, when you even look at old Onion headlines, every now and again you have some that aren't hysterical, like some aren't funny, but they're mostly funny.
00:19:55.000To save money on bombs, Air Force will now drop morbidly obese airmen on anime.
00:21:13.000Uh, we were talking about the Googlegs.
00:21:15.000We were talking about the fact that people will try to make the argument that it's a private company so they can do whatever they want and that they will literally cheer for their own enslavement as long as it's a private... To be fair, they will.
00:21:24.000They'll cheer for your enslavement as long as it's a private company, but they'll cheer for Dude, if you give people VR porn, they will do anything you ask.
00:21:47.000And so this is one of my fears about AI and the fact that it can generate these images so quickly and efficiently.
00:21:53.000When you look at how effective porn is as a tool for social control and the fact that you can make people completely complacent in a way that nobody could in the past with mere bread and circuses, Then you add this additional level of someone being able to literally instantaneously generate any sexually perverted image that they want that would go beyond even the wildest nightmares of your most disgusting pornographer, you realize, oh, this is something that's going to keep people indoors, right?
00:22:22.000This is something that's going to keep people complacent.
00:22:24.000This is something that's going to keep people obedient on a scale that we have never before seen.
00:22:28.000We were talking today on PCC about AI girlfriends and how possible it was.
00:22:37.000I really think that low-effort people will take that placebo really, really, really quick.
00:23:01.000These AI image generators can make porn, they do.
00:23:03.000They can, but it's not interactive the way that it's going to be.
00:23:07.000And honestly, only a year or two, this technology is coming faster than you can handle it.
00:23:12.000And as soon as that is available, you're gonna see a massive amount of young men
00:23:18.000drop out of society just because they don't wanna put the effort in.
00:23:23.000The reward is not really all that sweet to them.
00:23:27.000They're like, you know, if the marriage doesn't work out, blah, blah, blah.
00:23:31.000There's so many kids that don't have any religion at all to direct them to producing children and a family and stuff.
00:23:40.000You're going to see a massive amount of men jump right into the matrix.
00:23:44.000Yep, so this is going to introduce a new interesting problem too.
00:23:49.000I've said this before when it comes to OnlyFans and it comes to these women who say they're sex positive because they're participating in their own debasement.
00:23:57.000What they'll do is they'll rail against these social standards.
00:24:00.000But in reality the only reason they're able to make a living is because we have some social guardrails that are still just barely there so that not all women are doing OnlyFans.
00:24:13.000It's going to make that totally obsolete.
00:24:14.000I think some men will still go to OnlyFans because they'll want to feel like they have some kind of relationship with a real human woman, but... The AI is going to drive a lot of these, you know, quote-unquote self-employed pornographers out of work.
00:24:29.000Have you ever heard of vocal distance?
00:24:39.000We live in a post-modern society, right?
00:24:42.000You have a strawberry, and if you eat the strawberry, it tastes like a strawberry.
00:24:45.000Well, then you take the strawberry, and you add some sugar to it, and then you make it into a candy.
00:24:52.000Then you take the candy, and you put it into a drink, and you put some caffeine into it.
00:24:58.000Essentially, what happens is, the strawberry stops resembling the strawberry, and you get this This hyper-real version of a strawberry, and people select the strawberry because it's purely concentrated to perform the function that nature had evolved for a long time to do.
00:25:19.000It is basically just putting evolution onto a fast track.
00:25:24.000And that same thing is gonna happen with AI, and it's gonna do to the nerve centers in your brain that emotion normally does provide, it's going to do it in a way that human contact cannot replicate.
00:25:43.000It's going to be the perfected relationship.
00:25:46.000And that's why people are going to go into the Matrix, and they're going to stay in there.
00:26:13.000Jesus Christ saw every sin committed by human beings, which means that he watched a guy blasting rope to Waluigi Hentai and still decided to sacrifice himself for humanity.
00:26:33.000But is it true that he saw every sin committed by man?
00:26:37.000I believe so but don't quote me on that.
00:26:43.000The reason I brought it up is because Outside of the religious component, like, it is true, there is some dude, probably somewhere right now, cranking it to pictures of Waluigi.
00:26:53.000And, like, the AI, someone's gonna come to him- Well, because, I mean- Someone's gonna come to him and be like- I mean, God knows everything.
00:26:59.000Someone's gonna come to him and they're gonna be like, here's the metaverse helmet, with adult mode activated, and they're gonna be like, yeah, you can say whatever you wanna say and they'll AI generate it for you.
00:27:09.000And if you say hate speech, we'll take it away.
00:27:12.000That person will do whatever, and they're gonna put that thing on and be like, Waluigi.
00:28:13.000Dude, you should see if Media Matters advertises too.
00:28:16.000But this is the plan, like, I'm gonna advertise on the New York Times, Politico, and CNN, and they will never say a bad word.
00:28:22.000I'll go to the editor, the editor's gonna be like, oh, it's that far-right guy, let's pass it through legal, and they'll be like, this guy actually gives us a lot of money to advertise for him, he's not far-right, like, we want his money, don't say that about him.
00:30:28.000I think the best thing you can do is what the Chinese are trying to do this with TikTok.
00:30:31.000You infiltrate, destroy and rebuild, and then you own their infrastructure.
00:30:35.000And then you're, so it's like, if you ever played civilization, you play civilization.
00:30:38.000I mean, you know, are you better off wiping out the country and sending wave after wave of nuclear bomb and bombers or just sending in one spy doing a nuke and then walking in and owning that city?
00:31:20.000Like, you go to TPUSA, there's still stodgy suit-wearing dudes, but they're starting to incorporate people like me or Ian, which is better for culture building.
00:31:27.000They're starting to get more regular people who are considered cool in the traditional sense, who make good art.
00:31:36.000Like, it's absolutely important that you have the cultural cachet and you have the creatives and the ability to build that.
00:31:41.000But I'm just saying, I think that parallel institutions, parallel culture is better than trying to step in and subvert.
00:31:47.000Because again, I think that the left just has a natural, uh, the natural entropic principle as where the right is better at creating its own thing, creating something new rather than trying to just eat the other thing from the inside out.
00:32:41.000They're doing that to themselves anyway.
00:32:42.000They're going to lose all that coolness on their own.
00:32:44.000But on top of that, you just need to not give them, like you don't want to go on their platforms because going on their platforms gives them You know, some level of legitimacy.
00:32:53.000I feel like I have to go on CNN because otherwise I'm not legitimate until I'm on there.
00:33:07.000Yeah, but the argument is Trump shouldn't have gone on CNN when in fact him going on has damaged the left to an extreme degree.
00:33:14.000Well, but you were making, but to be fair, Aron did say earlier, you go on there to humiliate them.
00:33:18.000Right, that's the only reason to interact with them is to humiliate them, not to genuflect to them, not to give them any kind of credibility.
00:37:03.000I'm not sure that getting rid of qualified immunity would get rid of the activists, but I do think that getting rid of qualified immunity, or at least taking another look at it about the conditions for qualified immunity, I think that is something that's probably important.
00:38:22.000And, you know, if I had to move out of here, I'd have to change, you know, we'd have to have two breadwinners change their careers, move my children, my family, lose all my friends that I see every day.
00:38:52.000So they're probably old enough to be safe from a lot of the crazy bullshit.
00:38:56.000I'm not saying you have to do anything.
00:39:00.000I'm just saying like they're going to eventually show up to your house and
00:39:04.000and you're going to see bad shit in your neighborhood and if you're prepared for that
00:39:08.000well then that's fine you know what I mean like if I live in a house and I'm playing with
00:39:12.000fireworks that's my choice and then eventually a fireman portion of California is you know conservative um
00:39:19.000and it's like the eastern part Like, you know, I'm not living, you know, I'm not living in, like, downtown LA or anything like that, that nonsense.
00:39:30.000But the other aspect, too, is that, like, you know, cities are where the jobs are, right?
00:39:34.000And so people have to make a decision where to make money.
00:39:37.000And it's easy for you, where you make your living on the internet, to, you know, say everybody should just move to the country, but that's just not an option for most people.
00:39:49.000I mean, that's fair, but it's not fair to say Tim shouldn't say that, or that we shouldn't have to do that.
00:39:58.000No, I mean, it's the economic fallacy that I see.
00:40:01.000You know, everyone says, Tim, you're successful, therefore it's easy, as opposed to what actually happened was, you sacrificed everything and worked your ass off, and now you're able to do it.
00:40:10.000When I left Chicago with dirt no money because it was bad, nobody ever says that.
00:40:15.000Nobody ever says, Tim, you were homeless and you gave up everything and upended your entire life because you knew how bad the city was.
00:40:22.000Like, that's not a part of the equation.
00:40:23.000It's, oh, you're successful now so it's easy.
00:40:39.000Then I went to New York because of Occupy Wall Street.
00:40:42.000During Occupy Wall Street I was mostly homeless.
00:40:46.000Basically either sleeping outside or bouncing around from place to place and using the internet to basically start generating revenue.
00:40:55.000and I didn't have a YouTube or anything, and then by the time I started at Vice, I was so broke,
00:41:00.000Vice had to front me money. And so I lived in New York and worked for Vice, and it wasn't that bad,
00:41:06.000but eventually it started getting worse as the decade progressed. I ended up working for Fusion,
00:41:12.000and I was working for Fusion when, uh, the, uh, I was in Bed-Stuy when I worked for Fusion.
00:41:19.000I was on Myrtle and Nostrand, which is a relatively bad area by the Marcy Projects.
00:41:24.000And a black supremacist killed two cops, so I went down to Miami for a year and lived in the Redlands, which is farmland.
00:41:33.000Now, I had a job, and I had to drive an hour and a half every morning to get to the office in Miami, but I was like, I am not going to live in New York when they executed two cops in front of my building, and I don't want to live in this place anymore.
00:41:46.000Went down to Miami, and I'm like, I'm not, with these problems, even Miami, I'm like, I don't want to live in these areas that are completely unsafe and you can't protect yourself.
00:41:56.000So I opted for the farmlands, which is the Redlands, about 40 minutes southwest of Miami, about an hour and a half from where the office was, and I had to actually buy a car because I didn't have a car, so I bought a Honda Civic Hybrid for a couple grand, used, like a decade old, or at that time it was like eight years old or something, and then I worked out of there, and then when I left Fusion, I had savings, I went back up to the New York Metro, but this time I opted to be in the more suburban area, Not really.
00:42:22.000It's like still metro in the Jersey side.
00:42:25.000And when the bombs were planted in Manhattan and New Jersey, uh, and Jersey City, I was like, okay, this was stupid.
00:43:29.000It's a sanctuary state where they get extra free votes by letting illegal immigrants come in, and the government is completely against you.
00:43:36.000It's two-to-one, Democrat to conservative.
00:43:38.000But if you were in a place like West Virginia, your vote would have ten times, ten times the impact.
00:44:28.000When, in the 2020 Summer of Love, they went to like Rome, Illinois, and they were firebombing and smashing windows on small little convenience stores.
00:44:37.000So, it's, you know, my view is like, when I'm talking about this, I'm saying, When they go to that guy's house- So where do you go then?
00:44:44.000If you can go to Rome in Illinois, in some small town, why would you leave?
00:44:56.000You're in a jurisdiction wholly owned by Democrats and has been for decades, to the point where they've opened the borders completely and are giving free health care to non-citizens, free insurance to illegal immigrants, and getting free congressional votes because of it.
00:46:03.000I thank you for calling in and saying that because I don't think I'm right about everything and I'm glad other people got to hear your point of view as someone who does live in these areas.
00:46:36.000I'd specifically like to thank Tim for blasting ropes all over my topic that I was going to bring up.
00:46:44.000I was going to say something about the Elon announcement and the World Economic Forum executive chair.
00:46:56.000I guess I can kind of pivot from that.
00:47:02.000Did you guys know that she was a chairman on the task force on future of work?
00:47:13.000And sits on the World Economic Forum's Media, Entertainment, and Cultural Industry Governor Steering Committees.
00:47:20.000So I heard that about the media stuff, and I also read on, and it might have been just a passing tweet that someone said, but that part of the reason why Elon was speaking to her was because of the media history she has.
00:47:36.000Now again, I don't know anything beyond what We've heard so far, I haven't even had time to sit down and really go through a lot of the tweets because we've been, you know, on the air and stuff.
00:48:43.000Well, I just think that it is worth noting that it's easy for us that are constantly exposed to the culture war and
00:48:56.000who have jobs in the culture war or whatever.
00:48:58.000It's easy for us to kind of say, okay, it looks like he's on the side of the bad guys and stuff.
00:49:05.000And I think that there's a lot of people that are more nuanced.
00:49:07.000And Tim's made this point before, like inside the FBI, there are Trump supporters and inside the FBI, there are people that are against it.
00:49:15.000And so it, it is possible that the, People that not everybody that work has worked with the W.E.F.
00:49:29.000Again, I'm not saying that I'm not saying that she's you know that she's Going to do perfect things or that she's the right, even that she's the right selection.
00:49:38.000But I do think that it's likely that there is more nuance to it than just this person went to talk to the WEWF, so that automatically means that they must be the enemy.
00:49:52.000Now, again, this is not saying that we shouldn't be skeptical, and I'm not saying that we shouldn't be, you know, we shouldn't be aware of people's history and we shouldn't take that
00:50:24.000It was just, you know, if you ask anybody what's like the most evil organization on the planet, I mean, well, people like that listen to this type of show, what I'd say, World Economic Forum.
00:50:37.000I mean, well, well, well spoken, Phil.
00:50:43.000I mean, it doesn't mean that she's going to do bad.
00:50:47.000I mean, it doesn't mean I'm right either.
00:51:13.000I did want to say something real quick.
00:51:15.000I've called in like three weeks ago, and I had said something about my kids, and just because of the delay, I didn't hear Seamus say that he'd be praying for my kids.
00:51:24.000And Seamus, I just want to tell you, I really, really appreciate this.
00:51:55.000The internet for us at both locations costs $3,000 per month.
00:51:59.000If I set this up in New York City or the periphery, it would cost me $100 per month.
00:52:04.000The amount of money that I'm losing to do it here, it's really brutal.
00:52:07.000Not to mention every single person we have work here, it costs us an additional $2,000 to cover their moving expenses, and that doesn't even cover all of it, it's just the max cap we can provide because then the people who want to work here have to pay the rest of that on their own.
00:52:22.000Several families have relocated to this area to work here.
00:52:26.000So you're basically looking at a company of tons of people who are exerting tremendous resources to do exactly what we're talking about doing.
00:52:33.000To be in an area that's on the front line, where our votes matter significantly more than they would in other places, to push back on the woke encroachment and expending tons of resources to do it.
00:52:44.000I could go into an area in say like New York or Austin.
00:52:48.000Everyone's begging me to go to Austin.
00:52:49.000I could buy a building in Austin, Finger snap!
00:52:52.000We got an Austin building in a major metropolitan area.
00:52:55.000Internet costs a hundred bucks a month.
00:53:03.000And I put all that money in my pocket.
00:53:04.000Instead, we went to an area where we have to develop these things.
00:53:07.000Where we're building out an economy for people who are in MAGA country.
00:53:11.000So that as the economy here expands, the people who have strong American values in the second most Trump-supporting state are going to be the ones who are reaping the benefits of that economic expansion.
00:53:20.000We are having people who believe in what we're doing move out here, spending the money, uprooting the family, and coming here for the opportunity, and it's not easy.
00:53:30.000I, you know, I could save, like, no joke, dude, it's $6,000 a month for us to have internet.
00:54:15.000I believe in this stuff, and I think it's important that we do it.
00:54:18.000Building the coffee shop, I took out a loan to do that, so that we could get the building, and we're in a city where they're having drag queen all-ages shows, and they've announced they're going to be doing an X-rated pride event, or something to that effect.
00:54:32.000We are in a place that should not be having this, where our votes matter more, where we can bring economic value.
00:54:38.000And when we go to the city and say, do not allow porn on our streets, they'll say, why?
00:54:44.000And I'll say, because I run a large podcasting network and media company that's investing in this area, and we could leave.
00:54:51.000And when we do, we'll say exactly why we did.
00:54:53.000And they're going to say, no, no, no, no, don't leave.
