On today's show, Alex breaks down the DOJ targeting a conservative pundit for a speech he made outside of the Capitol, and why they think he should go to prison for it. Plus, we have a special guest on the show to talk about OnlyFans, a new way to consume cannabis.
00:00:19.000Owen Schroer, a pundit, personality and journalist for InfoWars, said some things.
00:00:25.000And for the things he said, the DOJ says he should go to prison for it.
00:00:29.000And this is what I said was going to happen.
00:00:31.000I said, now they're going after, they go after Trump, they go after his lawyers, the next people in line are going to be the pundits who are advocating for or encouraging people on January 6th.
00:00:58.000They then say in the sentencing document, the prosecutor says, because of his speech before, during, and after the event, he should get this amount of time in prison.
00:01:12.000It's not a one-for-one to what I was exactly describing, but it's basically the opening the door, the midway point.
00:01:18.000A guy said some things about January 6th, encouraged people, he challenged the established order, and for that he should go to prison.
00:01:39.000It's within the margin of error, but he's beating Biden and CNN says never in the 2020 cycle did they have polls that showed this level of this high probability for Donald Trump.

00:03:04.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more is Martha Bueno.
00:04:15.000Hey, I found, I just read recently that people want to polish the Statue of Liberty.
00:04:20.000All that green, it's green because it's basically oxidized copper, and if you polish it down, it's going to be like a bronze, copper, shiny.
00:04:27.000Would you guys Suggest putting tax money into that would that be a good
00:04:30.000public works project. I actually don't hate the idea and I think that
00:04:34.000New Jersey and New York should actually compete for who's gonna actually clean it up because Jersey's always saying
00:04:42.000Oh, you know Ellis Island or I mean a Liberty Islands in New Jersey. It's not New York blah blah blah
00:04:46.000So let them fight about it, and whoever cleans it gets to have it for a year.
00:05:03.000The tweet that he was hard, the tweet when they were talking about it, he was talking about like doing it as an idea of like rejuvenating American, bringing American spirit back and et cetera.
00:05:12.000And there are times where those kind of policies or those kind of, uh, Things can inspire people.
00:05:18.000I don't know if it's a great idea, I don't know if it's going to do a whole lot, but I don't think it's a... It's not a horrible idea, it'd be kind of neat.
00:06:00.000They literally just post a quote and a video of Alex Jones, which I will play a bit for you here right now.
00:06:07.000I think Now, this deals with Owen, and this deals with the rest of the January 6th people, where their lawyers are like, we don't want you to antagonize the system.
00:06:17.000We don't want you to sit there and do much stuff.
00:07:03.000And so in the charging document, I'm not going to read through the whole thing, They basically say, before January 6th, on January 6th, and after January 6th, Owen Schroyer had said things that incited people.
00:07:18.000And, uh, for that, they are seeking this sentence.
00:07:21.000The criminal charge against him is not for speech.
00:07:24.000It's for, uh, being on the Capitol grounds.
00:07:26.000But they're arguing that he is the reason people stormed the Capitol.
00:07:50.000They go on to mention after the fact, August.
00:07:53.000So this is for his speech, that they are seeking to put him in jail.
00:07:57.000When I said that the next people they'd come for would be pundits, I didn't... I didn't mean, like, outright, it would be Owens or anything like that.
00:08:04.000There are people who are not in the Capitol, who are not on the Capitol grounds, who I am referring to.
00:08:10.000And there are people who are not even in D.C., who I am referring to.
00:08:14.000I even said, like, prominent cable personalities who were in communications with Trump Legal's team who pushed the narrative.
00:08:20.000Prominent personalities, many of whom got sued.
00:08:27.000He not only was there on the ground, he didn't go in the building, but he was also someone that they're seeking a prison sentence for over speech he made after the fact.
00:08:39.000Because the precedent for going after journalists was set with Snowden and with Assange, and then the Obama administration went after James Rosen.
00:08:52.000So the idea that this is the first time?
00:08:55.000No, this is something that's been in motion for a long time, and there's a lot of people People around this table and other pundits and stuff that have been vocal about how it's a bad thing that, you know, Snowden hasn't been pardoned and Assange hasn't been pardoned and it's a bad thing that Rosen went to jail.
00:09:14.000And the Democrats didn't... Rosen actually went to jail?
00:09:17.000Oh no, I'm sorry, that they... They went after him.
00:09:19.000We've had him on the show, I'm pretty sure.
00:10:10.000Imagine going back then when we were concerned about this and telling people In ten years, they're gonna put a guy in jail because he was on the Capitol grounds bullhorning, and then after the fact, he said stuff like, to a certain degree, we should be proud of what we did that day.
00:10:28.000He said something like, he maintains the election was stolen.
00:10:33.000One of the reasons they want him in jail is because they said, even after all of this, he still maintains the election was stolen.
00:10:38.000As if he has to publicly change his opinion.
00:10:54.000It goes from you're free to you're not free.
00:10:57.000I mean, look, we're discussing 10 years.
00:11:00.000Not even, I mean, and think about the past few years.
00:11:03.000Think about where we were six, seven years ago, and it's laughable to me that there are people who are like, ah, you're overreacting or you're, you know, it's exaggerating or it's shot content.
00:11:14.000I'm like, dude, I think the issue is that Everybody is standing in the middle of the forest, and when you tell them, dude, you are in the middle of the forest, they're like, what do you mean?
00:11:44.000That's the beginning of this totalitarian seizure, man.
00:11:46.000I can respect that, but you gotta slow down a little bit.
00:11:48.000The way that the government... You gotta talk about, okay, so we ended up in this position with the NDAA, the National Defense Authorization Act.
00:11:57.000Which gave the indefinite, which signed into law the indefinite detention provision, which is an offshoot of what is effectively the Bush-era expansion of authoritarianism, anti-terror policies, and the expansion of the creation of DHS, which emerges out of the Patriot Act, which starts after 9-11.
00:12:12.000I watched it happen in real time, too.
00:12:15.000I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just saying we gotta explain to people how we get from point A to point B. Right, this would set like a precedent for that to be acceptable if they were to pull that off.
00:12:25.000When we talked in 2012 about the indefinite detention provision that Obama signed into law, the NDA provision that says they could snatch you up in the middle of the night without charge or trial, hold you on a military vessel 11 miles off the coast of this country and rendition you, We were like, that's scary.
00:12:44.000And the response from everybody is, oh, you're nuts, that's never gonna happen.
00:12:50.000Because now we're at the point where they're arresting journalists, they're arresting, well, they've been targeting journalists, that's the Obama era.
00:12:57.000Around the same time, going after Rosen, Julian Assange, that's an informal assassination as far as I'm concerned.
00:13:22.000We are, we are potentially a couple years away from the actual implementation of an indefinite detention act.
00:13:29.000The Trump, and I hate the fact that this is so prescient now, but Trump said, they're not coming after you, or they're not coming after me, they're coming after you, I'm just in the way.
00:13:42.000And I hate the fact that it looks like that's the case.
00:13:46.000The idea that it's just Trump is something that I've been pushing back against with Democrats, specifically shit libs, for a long time because they think, oh, well, Donald Trump is different.
00:13:57.000It's like the thing that's different is the behavior of the Democrats in the left.
00:14:02.000The influence of authoritarianism in the United States on the left is undeniable.
00:14:09.000And the fact that people have been ignoring it or just saying, no, no, it's not true, likely because they don't believe it's true because they have normal jobs and normal lives and they're not steeped in this stuff like people that do this stuff all the time.
00:14:21.000But the fact of the matter is, The federal government has never been more authoritarian.
00:14:27.000They're throwing people in jail in the way that they did during the Civil War and in the 20s.
00:14:35.000Was it Wilson that threw people in jail?
00:15:45.000There is nobody else, I agree with you.
00:15:47.000There's nobody else, and at this point it's Trump or nobody, but we can't expect that Trump is going to come save us.
00:15:53.000We have to understand that it's going to come from us, and it's going to come from Americans.
00:15:58.000Number one, understanding history, understanding where this is going, and then doing something about it, because they can't control us if we don't allow them to.
00:16:05.000You were talking earlier about Venezuela.
00:16:07.000Can you go ahead and relate some of the things that you were telling us about?
00:16:12.000Because this is important now, because this is something that it's possible that we're gonna have to worry about.
00:16:18.000We have got people that I really do want you to, but I want to say this first.
00:16:23.000People that deny that there is a problem on the left, they need to go to urban areas and talk to the political activists, the people that are on the ground working With the communities, talk to them.
00:16:40.000You go to Brooklyn, there's DSA everywhere, which is the Democratic Socialists of America, full of commies, full of communists, and they're at the point where they'll tell you about it.
00:16:52.000So, if you don't mind, go ahead and relate some of the things.
00:16:54.000And somehow, it's okay to be a communist in this country.
00:16:56.000Like, you would never call yourself... Not according to me!
00:18:55.000versus Heller, the right for individuals to keep and bear arms outside of their home was 2008.
00:19:01.000If you look at the issuance of gun permits, there was not a single state that would allow you to have a gun, for the most part, back in the 80s.
00:19:09.000It was actually difficult to have guns.
00:19:11.000Now, we did have a different culture where people had rifles and there was like gun clubs in schools, but in the past 20 years, the expansion of individual liberties and gun rights has been Exponential.
00:19:23.000To the point where now I think half the country is constitutional carry.
00:19:27.000Or, I'm sorry, it's probably safer to say open carry in more than half the country, which did not exist 20, 30 years ago.
00:19:35.000What was it before that, when we didn't have to... You needed a permit, and they wouldn't give it to you.
00:19:42.000So, even with the Second Amendment, you still had, back in the day, let's go back to the frontier era in New York, they didn't allow you to have guns.
00:19:51.000Second Amendment said you had the right to keep and bear arms, and it was in your house, basically.
00:19:54.000And famously, you'll look at old westerns or whatever, the trope was, the American history was, you'd go into a town and they could order you to turn over your weapons.
00:20:05.000Now we're in an era- and again, for the most part, people would carry guns because you're out in the middle of nowhere and no one can enforce anything anyway.
00:20:11.000But we get into this modern era, you go back to the 1900s, we get the NFA, early 1900s, I think it was like the 20s, and they start expanding rapid control of firearms and making it harder and harder.
00:20:22.000It's actually, if you look at the map, of the right to keep and bear arms without a permit, the government can't question you, started to emerge after the eighties.
00:20:55.000You got to be vigilant, but you pull up a map of... It used to be every state was basically a no-issue or may-issue.
00:21:05.000You wanted a gun, you'd go to the police, you'd go to the government, say, can I get a permit?
00:21:08.000They'd say, sure, and then they'd never give it to you.
00:21:11.000Now, overwhelming, I think more than half this country is open carry, meaning if you're a resident, you can walk into a gun store, you do a federal background check, they hand you the gun, you can walk out holding it.
00:21:21.000Some states like West Virginia, Texas now, I don't know how many states are constitutional carry, but a lot.
00:21:29.000Yeah, meaning you can walk in as a resident, you fill out your national incident check system, your NICS background check, and then they could jam you up for a few days, three days is the max.
00:21:41.000But typically, you'll be cleared within five or ten minutes, and then you can actually
00:21:45.000take the weapon and conceal it on your person and go walk around.
00:21:48.000So those rights have been expanding rapidly, and I think it's important people know that
00:21:51.000I think we're winning across the board, and what we're seeing with the expansion of these
00:21:56.000extremist policies and the targeting of the likes of Owen Schroer and these lawyers is
00:22:24.000And they say, uh, you know, if West Virginia, for instance, if you get your concealed carry permit, you don't even get the background check per weapon anymore because the process by which you get your concealed carry permit is your background check.
00:22:38.000And at that point, you're allowed to just freely purchase weapons.
00:22:41.000Whereas if you don't have it, you have to get a background check every single time you buy it.
00:22:44.000They're making guns out of graphene now.
00:24:52.000I have a problem with the idea of us needing to do stuff for the rest of the world.
00:24:58.000That's very authoritarian and it's very neocon and very Stuff that we got ourselves into a lot of trouble in Iraq and Afghanistan and all other place a whole bunch other places trying to do it is not America's job to make the rest of the world like America and that's part of why like Nationalism should not be a dirty word like You shouldn't be like jingoistic and be like I want to export war for my country But you should be like it's okay to
00:25:28.000For there to be countries with different laws and I don't think that it's a good idea to just because we believe that America has like The best system we can believe that but that doesn't mean that other people in other countries would agree And I think that's what happened in Iraq.
00:25:45.000We went in there and we're like, we're gonna deliver democracy!
00:25:47.000But the Iraqi people, the population that you're giving this new government or new structure to, has to be willing to accept it and want to do it.
00:25:56.000If America falls to an authoritarian government, it will be because the American people have said, we accept this.
00:26:05.000It'll be because Democrats have said, we're gonna vote for the government to have this kind of power.
00:26:11.000I want everyone to look at this map real quick.
00:26:14.000This is the, uh, finalized map of the country and, uh, your guns.
00:26:20.000Where it's green, you do not need a permit to carry concealed.
00:29:58.000Yeah, because the thing is, once you industrialize war and make it possible to annihilate entire cities, the idea of using force and war to conquer territory kind of stops being acceptable.
00:30:11.000And that's part of the reason why there's been proxy wars and small wars since World War II, but we've managed to avoid a global world war, because there has been the The effort by the West to prevent other countries from having nuclear weapons, which we talked about the other night, um, you know, to, to prevent the, the, uh, what's the word they use?
00:30:35.000Anyways, other countries from getting nuclear weapons.
00:30:51.000I'm open to hearing what you guys think about... I mean, you do kind of have to force the... I'm forcing this conversation right now, in a sense.
00:31:01.000But for me to even come up here and sit down and put a camera on and like force myself to be in this situation, I could easily be playing video games alone in my room in a studio apartment in the middle of the city.
00:31:09.000People copy what they see that they like.
00:32:27.000Yeah, there are countries where if you get pulled over, you're not getting a ticket, you're handing them a hundred bucks, or you're going to jail.
00:35:01.000Yeah, and it was like, you know, he's this great guy, he looks good on camera, the man can dress, you know, and he says all the right things.
00:35:12.000And then, you know, drops a few bums on kids and American citizens and, you know, it's just... I don't know.
00:35:22.000It's scary to watch and pay attention.
00:35:23.000Obama is more likely to be the charismatic...
00:35:27.000If someone were to come to me and said, do you think that the charismatic leader who leads the world to destruction is around today, I'd be like, it's possible.
00:35:36.000If you came to me and said you thought it was either Trump or Obama, I'd be like, oh there's no question it's not Trump.
00:36:16.000But you can be charismatic and cruel, or charismatic and say mean things that upset people charismatically.
00:36:22.000And he did that, so half the people loved him.
00:36:23.000But my point is simply, if it came down to who do you think, out of the two, is more likely to be the charismatic leader who leads the world to ruin, it's Obama.
00:36:57.000And I forgot what it's called, but it's, like, how my dad got radicalized from a Democrat to far-right because of Rush Limbaugh.
00:37:03.000And it was really hilarious watching this thing because it's mirror reality.
00:37:07.000I mean, they got the guy from Media Matters.
00:37:08.000And Media Matters just posts, like, insane lies all the time and conspiracy theories.
00:37:12.000And I'm like, to act like you're not in the cult and you're listening to this guy?
00:37:16.000But, uh, in it, they're talking about Ronald Reagan, they're talking about Richard Nixon, they're talking about the fast, quick one-liners, and demagoguery, and celebrity, and building cults of personality, and I'm like, oh, this is really fun.
00:38:38.000People act like the rhetoric that he had was so bad, and I agree with you about foreign policy.
00:38:44.000But I don't think that he was a little more direct in the way that he spoke.
00:38:52.000But he wasn't, and maybe other presidents were, they were a little more, they had a little more finesse, but the thing that people liked about Trump was that he was just saying it like it is, right?
00:39:21.000Say we're gonna sell weapons to Saudi Arabia, and we're like, okay, alright.
00:39:25.000And then he would be like, my hair is real, and I'm the best, and everyone loves me, and you're like, okay, Trump.
00:39:31.000It's like, he lies a lot, but the things he lies about, I don't care about.
00:39:35.000How many people were at his inauguration?
00:39:38.000Yeah, exactly, how many people were there?
00:39:39.000Oh, the biggest, the biggest you've ever seen.
00:39:41.000It's like, we know it wasn't, but fine, whatever dude.
00:39:43.000Look, if Donald Trump is sitting there, and he's like, He's in his room saying, oh, there's a million people here right now watching, watching me sign these peace agreements in the Middle East.
00:39:58.000I don't care if Trump wants to lie about the size of inauguration or the women he's been with and all this weird, stupid, nonsense, cultural crap.
00:40:07.000I care that we got the Abraham Accords.
00:40:08.000I care that the economy was doing well.
00:40:10.000I care that he took tremendous efforts to try and bring peace to parts of the world, like in North Korea.
00:40:42.000But it was a tremendous sign of good faith.
00:40:44.000Trump can tell me that his house is made of cheese and graham crackers and sugar and candy canes, and he can look me square in the eyes and lie.
00:40:53.000He can tell me that his toilet is made of solid gold, and I'll say, whatever you say, dude.
00:40:59.000Keep working on those peace agreements, and I'm satisfied.
00:41:02.000Just be like, are you sure it's solid?
00:41:08.000When Zoolander looks at the, you know, what is the institute for kids who can't read good or whatever?
00:41:13.000And he's like, how are we going to teach them to read if they can't fit in the building?
00:41:17.000And then Mugatu is like, he's absolutely right!
00:41:20.000I'm saying, if Trump wants me to believe that he had the biggest inauguration or any other nonsense like that and he keeps saying it, I'm just gonna be like, Yes, you are completely correct, sir.
00:41:31.000And all of those people at your migration are cheering for you as you sign the Abraham Accords and try and bring peace to the Middle East.
00:41:37.000I was thinking the other night, like, who was the best president of my lifetime?
00:41:51.000Because in the late 90s, or in the early-mid 90s, he was able to rally and, like, make the United States seem like the greatest country on Earth.
00:42:15.000I blame the corrupt uniparty establishment.
00:42:18.000Trump was a massive celebrity, loved by everybody.
00:42:20.000Barack Obama said the American dream was to beat Trump, but Trump was an outsider who wanted to do things like bring back manufacturing, secure our borders, and the TPP.
00:42:28.000I gotta tell you, when he crushed the TPP, that's probably one of the biggest moments where the knives came out.
00:42:34.000And then they did everything in their power to make everybody hate Trump.
00:42:37.000And I'm like, everybody loved the guy.
00:42:41.000I'm gonna say it again, Barack Obama said the American dream is to be Donald Trump.
00:42:44.000That was the idea before he decided to run for president, and they came after him.
00:42:48.000And even the people who- there are certain celebrities who are like, oh, I've been good friends with the Trump family, they're all very, very nice.
00:42:54.000But Trump's a fascist, and I'm like, oh, get- get out of here with that.
00:42:57.000Look, it is not- it is not hard to say that Trump is the greatest president of my lifetime, because who am I comparing him to?
00:43:27.000We're beginning to see the makings of a new world order, and all of that neocon garbage and Desert Storm and everything they tried to do.
00:43:34.000You get Bill Clinton, and don't get me wrong, there is some good economic stuff, but there's a whole lot of stuff wrong with Bill Clinton's presidency.
00:43:42.000And I have to say, for the most part, When it comes to those two presidents, in my lifetime, there was nothing in my life that they did that mattered.
00:43:53.000And so, the most I can say is, Bill Clinton's got all the scandals.
00:44:30.000And for everything I can't say about the Clinton years, because I was too little, I can say, no new wars, Abraham Accords, peace agreements in Europe, getting people to commit to paying their fair share with NATO, working on peace agreements with North Korea, securing our borders, bringing back manufacturing, there's no question.
00:44:48.000It's just, it really is an easy answer.
00:44:52.000Man, I don't want to repeat myself too much, but I believe one of the president's main jobs is to unify the states.
00:44:58.000You know, preside over the United States and keep them united.
00:45:02.000And if a president comes in and tells half the country that they're not part of the group... Who said that?
00:45:31.000Yeah, so it's hard for me sitting here, because it's like, yeah, Obama looked great when he was wearing his suits and bombing people across the world.
00:45:40.000And also, the United States, if you look at it that way, where we need some leader, would be the largest corporation on the planet.
00:45:47.000And I just can't imagine that anybody who's running for office, even Donald Trump, who's, I'm sure, a great business person, however, I just can't envision anybody being able to actually manage a corporation with 330 million people and trillions of dollars.
00:46:05.000Yeah, I mean, listen, I love the United States.
00:46:08.000I think this country is an amazing place and I think we should go back to that freedom that allowed us to be that amazing place.
00:46:16.000I do not believe that there is somebody in Washington writing down, you know, some magic scroll that will somehow protect us or do something You know, we just need our freedom.
00:46:26.000To get to that point, you mentioned like going back to what was good, but we're going to
00:46:30.000go forward to a new envisioning of what was good or what is good.
00:49:30.000So if I can't afford to maintain my house, the government will take it from me.
00:49:34.000And so I'm paying for all these services, and it's just wrong.
00:49:41.000So people will pay for homeless people through taxes, and then if they can't afford their own home, the government will take their home away from them because they spent their house money on other people's homelessness.
00:49:51.000That's why I decided to run in the first place.
00:49:52.000I lived in my grandfather's house when I couldn't afford, you know, when I had a child at 21 and I couldn't afford to live, you know, like, and I moved in with my grandfather and he was like, hey, can you take care of the bills?
00:50:02.000And, you know, you can live here for free.
00:50:04.000And I realized property taxes, my grandfather couldn't pay for it.
00:50:08.000And that's generally who is affected the most.
00:50:11.000It's the elderly, it is people who have some type of disability, it is somebody who's going through hard times, medical, you know, medical difficulties.
00:50:18.000They lose their homes because they couldn't pay for all the wish lists that the government, those people who you elect, you know, that sit there and are just like, you know, they don't take public transportation, they don't, they have security provided by government, provided by the police, they have all these things and they Make these decisions for you, and if you don't comply, you will lose your home.
00:50:39.000Michael Schellenberger... One potential solution would be to, uh, we could install lights in the palms of everyone's hands, and as they get closer to turning 30, the light begins to turn red, and then when they turn 30, it flashes red, where we then take them and excise them from society.
00:51:46.000And they receive money every year to fix it, but instead of actually getting homeless people homes, they just pay the administrators, the bureaucracy, to maintain the status quo.
00:51:54.000You still have the same people who are still homeless, and they keep making every year.
00:52:03.000But in Miami-Dade County, the person who runs the Homeless Trust, who has all this money, is Ron Book, who is the largest What would this be?
00:52:25.000Like are the people getting off the street and the new people are arriving or is it just tough to tell?
00:52:28.000You look at a number it's 3,000 but I mean everybody so where I live there's not a whole lot of homeless because they generally live in downtown where you know they have more access to bathrooms and whatnot so it's hard to tell but we generally you kind of know who you know the homeless guy is everybody knows the guy on the corner like You know, and he's always there.
00:52:48.000And they come around and they sweep every now and then and remove him and, you know, throw out all his stuff, his few possessions, and it's so sad.
00:53:14.000I do want to talk about this story, though.
00:53:16.000Ladies and gentlemen, it's not going to be Donald Trump, nor will it be Joe Biden.
00:53:21.000The man who will save this world is Elon Musk.
00:53:26.000I'm being facetious, that's kind of the joke, but I'm also only half-joking.
00:53:30.000Aside from Elon challenging the narrative machine of the ADL, calling out corrupt politicians, securing, not perfectly, but helping people bring back free expression on social media, Elon Musk, it is being reported now, averted World War III and may have saved the planet from nuclear annihilation.
00:53:52.000The probability of that being the circumstance is probably very, very low, but it just sounds fun, so I want to say it.
00:54:00.000We have this from the Washington Post.
00:54:02.000Elon Musk cut internet to Ukraine's military as it was attacking Russian fleet.
00:54:08.000So, the first story that comes out is that while this major counter-offensive was underway, Elon Musk shuts down Starlink, cutting their communications, stopping the offensive.
00:54:18.000Elon Musk responded, saying there was an emergency request from government authorities to activate Starlink all the way to Sevastopol.
00:54:25.000The obvious intent being to sink most of the Russian fleet at anchor.
00:54:30.000If I had agreed to their request, then SpaceX would be explicitly complicit in a major act of war and conflict escalation.
00:54:38.000I wonder if, wrong article, if Ukraine sank Russia's Black Sea fleet using SpaceX, using US weapons and intelligence, would Russia have dramatically escalated the conflict at the time?
00:54:54.000There is a possibility it may have been the case.
00:54:57.000I don't know for sure, but Elon Musk refused to provide Starlink to be used by the Ukrainians in this counter-offensive.
00:55:06.000He may have single-handedly stopped a major escalation which could have led to World War III.
00:55:10.000Do you know what the size of the fleet was and the makeup of the fleet in Sevastopol at the time?
00:56:13.000But I'm curious, I mean, in terms of the uniparty establishment machine, man, Elon Musk is running afoul.
00:56:20.000But it shows the decay of the uniparty power in that Elon Musk openly defies them, does not allow them to wage war using his infrastructure.
00:56:44.000I'm looking at a restoration of true American values of decentralization of power, and for the longest time we had an authoritarian uniparty that did whatever it wanted, regardless of the Constitution.
00:56:55.000Now, you look at all of their devices, you look at the activist base, you look at the narrative machine, and they're failing across the board.
00:57:01.000People tweeting about how the ADL no longer has any power.
00:57:04.000They say, all these people who are criticizing us are white supremacists and everyone laughs.
00:57:38.000And now we have the American uniparty, the Liberal Economic Order, and the Chinese, Rus', liberal, like, or not liberal, but it's a uniparty.
00:57:45.000And they're clashing in Ukraine, so now there's an opportunity for, like, businessmen to step in and create something new.
00:57:50.000I see what you are saying, like the unilateral rule of the United States clashing with other authoritarians, but Russia may be aligned with China and BRICS and everything, but when you get to the global scale, it's not a uniparty.
00:58:02.000There's greater conflict between nations.
00:58:04.000I suppose the CCP's uniparty and the British... Uniparty refers to, in the United States, the Democrats and Republicans that are secretly aligned and pretend to be opposed to each other.
00:58:12.000Yeah, well the Chinese Communist Party is literally a uniparty that runs that country.
00:58:16.000Right, but the United States and China are not aligned, so it's not a global uniparty.
00:58:20.000No, no, it's two uniparties going at each other.
00:58:22.000So that's why I think it's an opportunity for the private sector to be like, while you guys quibble, we're going to create something functional.
00:58:29.000And you see Elon doing it in real time.
00:58:31.000Maybe we should call the United States the former uniparty because they've lost too much power at this point.
00:58:36.000You know, look, I know that they're arresting and charging people and all that stuff, but they're really failing at it every step of the way.
00:58:41.000Their ability to influence is weakening drastically every week.
00:58:44.000Yeah, I just watched Mehdi Hassan interview Vivek Ramaswamy, and there's lag!
00:58:50.000It's MSNBC 2023, and they still have lag in their video conference.
00:59:00.000What the hell infrastructure is this archaic dinosaur of a media monolith using that there's still freaking lag and they can't have a- Sometimes they can't even figure out stereo and mono.
00:59:10.000Like, I'm here in one ear and like- Do you guys remember when CNN did the satellite interview from the same parking lot?
00:59:17.000Two people in the same parking lot and they did a satellite interview as if they were different places.
00:59:20.000So the reason I brought up lag in MSNBC is because I think that's just evidence of what you're saying, that the uniparty function is crumbling.
01:01:45.000And now they're making it seem like he was saying, stay in the Capitol.
01:01:48.000The defense said he didn't contact them at any point.
01:01:51.000I will say, if it comes to the point where they begin going beyond the scope of, you know, Owen Schroyer, who was on the ground, and they're saying his speech warrants a prison sentence, He was on the ground and that's their pretext for the arrest.
01:02:05.000If they escalate to the point where they're coming after pundits, I would argue that out of anyone in this room, Ian's the first person they'd target.
01:02:14.000Because I got long hair, bro, and I'm a wizard.
01:02:16.000This happened when I was with Luke Rutkowski in Chicago and the police planted, we believe they planted drugs in the apartment we're staying at.
01:02:24.000They target people who are less likely to be able to muster up legal defense funds.
01:02:29.000So if they wanted to disrupt a show like this and make claims about rhetoric or inflammatory things, Uh, would they go after me?
01:03:00.000What I'm saying is, I don't think anyone's gonna come and try to arrest you.
01:03:02.000I'm saying, the target of who they go after is, who can we get easily?
01:03:08.000Enrique Tarrio, the Proud Boys, most people don't know who he is.
01:03:12.000They're not gonna- Look- They're waiting to go after Trump until they can build everything up on the ground because they know a direct move against Trump is... It makes him millions of dollars.
01:03:37.000Also, however, is he going to be the nominee?
01:03:40.000You look at January 6th, and they go after people you've never heard of, that don't make the press, and you don't even know are in jail, and these people, try as they might, can't get the word out.
01:03:53.000Then they announce, two and a half years later, that Owen Schroyer will be criminally charged.
01:03:59.000They're starting from the bottom and moving upwards.
01:04:04.000It's very much like that story we talk about eBay.
01:04:07.000You know, when eBay was started, it was yellow and they wanted to change the background to white, but everyone got mad, so they did it one step at a time over the course of a year.
01:04:13.000They don't want to come out immediately, right after January 6th, and say, Donald Trump, you're under arrest.
01:04:27.000They go to this, you know, 37-year-old woman who was walking around the Capitol waving a flag when everyone in the building, and they say, you're gonna go to prison for eight years for a felony charge for terrorism, or you're going to write a letter saying Trump made you do it, And then we're going to say you can go home right now.
01:04:59.000If they weaken his base by getting his supporters to write letters saying Trump did this and ordered me to do it, and then use that for propaganda, knowing these people, no one will ever hear their names.
01:05:11.000Also, they're not going to be in the news.
01:05:15.000Now that you've heard that all these people have been charged, if you're a layperson, you know, you go to work every day, you got the kids, you got stuff going on, you're not really paying attention.
01:05:23.000You have no idea what these people have been charged with.
01:05:25.000You hear, I don't know how many people have been arrested.
01:05:28.000Now, all of a sudden, it's like an actual thing.
01:05:30.000It's like, well, all those people arrested, of course, they had to have done something terrible.
01:05:34.000So it adds to that level of Yeah, they did something.
01:05:38.000Of course you gotta go for Trump because he's the orchestrator of all these people.
01:05:42.000They get enough people to sign letters saying Trump ordered me to do it, then they say we have sworn witness testimony from 372 people saying Trump instructed them to do it.
01:05:50.000Under duress, of course, but is that mentioned in the argument?
01:06:10.000The speech is opening the door to targeting other personalities who are online.
01:06:15.000The next person we'll likely see charged is going to be someone who maybe has a hundred, two hundred thousand followers, subscribers, and they're going to say they advocated for, incited, and instructed people to commit a crime.
01:06:28.000There were people on Twitter, on YouTube, and other social platforms, before January 6th, who posted videos advocating for people to engage in direct conflict.
01:06:44.000I think these people, some of whom have instantly flipped and become total disanta supporters, probably flipped because they know, uh oh, They're next in line.
01:06:56.000After the J6s are on the ground, they're gonna come out and say, you committed an act of sedition by making these videos advocating for insurrection against the United States government.
01:07:05.000You know, it's worth noting, too, like, for the entire time that Antifa was rioting and stuff, they were ha- they had signs that said that they wanted revolution, that they wanted to tear down the government, they want, you know, that no...
01:08:15.000But they literally set off a bomb in the Capitol.
01:08:19.000The Democrat in Georgia will not be involved in the criminal prosecution of the Antifa terrorists who were firebombing the police HQ, burning down homes, building vehicles, and shooting at cops.
01:08:33.000The Democrats are bowing out and saying, we won't charge them.
01:08:36.000They're literally saying that you don't matter.
01:08:38.000That what matters here is that institution.
01:08:40.000I mean, if government is more important than the people, then that's a statement.
01:08:45.000I think they're outright saying that if you do these things, we're on your side.
01:08:49.000I mean, I know that there's people that don't believe it, but there are actual communists in Congress, people that are the squad are all DSA members, or at least they caucus with the DSA, they caucus with communists.
01:09:02.000There is no significant light between AOC And any of the DSA members that are actual members of the DSA, there's no significant difference in their policy decisions or what they're looking for.
01:09:16.000I don't know enough about the differentials, but socialists are different than communists.
01:09:21.000I would imagine that they didn't want state control.
01:09:32.000You know when, it's Cheech I think, he's outside and he's talking about all the beautiful women that are inside and all the different kinds of women's parts that are available, and then they're like, we gotta go inside there!
01:09:42.000But then when they walk in it's a bunch of vampires who are trying to kill him.
01:09:46.000Outside, they're like, dude, if you come in here, we got pizza, we got video games, we got fast cars, everybody gets to have anything you want.
01:10:59.000And we should debate what systems should be socialized.
01:11:02.000So there's things that conservatives argue so that way, or in order to prevent a policy or whatever, but a lot of the social services that we, myself personally I'm kind of against this stuff, but They were made with the intent to diffuse the desire for the United States to become a more socialist country.
01:11:31.000So in the Progressive Era, like the first half of the 20th century, Fascism and socialism were all the rage, right?
01:11:40.000The state was in charge, the government could do things, and because we were now industrial countries and stuff, the state itself could do all kinds of massive projects, etc., etc., and everybody was buying it.
01:11:54.000So I don't know why I just slipped out of my head what we were talking about.
01:12:00.000Yeah, but the point is like... You say they were using socialist tactics to diffuse the desire for socialism.
01:12:06.000Yeah, because the world kind of was on fire for fascism and communism, and socialism, because before the end of World War II, Fascism didn't have the same kind of dirty connotations that it does.
01:12:21.000And these were new ideas, they were innovations that people were all excited about because we could remake man and remake the world because we had all this power because of the industrial revolution.
01:12:31.000And the thing is, all those policies actually, there's an argument that those policies actually prevented the United States from falling into an actual socialist situation because the government stepped in and said, well, we'll use social programs, but we're going to keep, you know, the things that are, that keep us free.
01:12:50.000So I'm not sure if I think it was, you know, the best option, but that is an argument that I've heard.
01:12:55.000You guys know there's a statue of Lenin in Seattle.
01:13:59.000The idea was, you had feudalism, then you had capitalism, and then once capitalism made enough product and stuff, then you would have socialism, and it would just happen, right?
01:14:08.000And then after social- once you had socialism, then the people would start realizing that socialism works, and then that the government itself is redundant, because people are doing the things that need to be done, not the government, and then- No.
01:15:20.000We just want to repaint it like a Statue of Liberty.
01:15:22.000I got a question for you guys about the president.
01:15:24.000Do you think, because I was thinking last night, a lot of the people that watch this show enjoy Donald Trump, so I don't want to be too much of a dig on him, but last time I was like, I feel like voting for Trump right now is like the lazy man's vote.
01:15:36.000It's just like go in there and just do it.
01:15:38.000I don't even know, but like Vivek is the intellectual, it's the challenging route because he actually has a plan.
01:15:43.000You have to think about it and actually learn things to understand how to manipulate our government properly.
01:15:48.000Vivek was talking about the stuff with Infowars and stuff like that, so another good thing about Vivek is he's talking about these kind of things that other politicians don't seem to be talking about.
01:17:08.000I mean, that's a lot of money for a big pile of But I gotta tell you, hear me out.
01:17:15.000I'm fairly confident that if I bought this and then brought it to a big piece of rural land and said, for $5, you can defile it in any way you want.
01:17:30.000This one's for me, and this one's for my dad, and this one's for- There would be Floridian pilgrimages of people being like- Why don't we just put it in Florida?
01:17:39.000Let's put in the capital of Latin America, Miami, and let's just, you know, let the people that have had to flee their countries in recent times take care of it for you.
01:18:42.000What I'm saying is, I would not crowdfund to buy this to personally own.
01:18:47.000If we do a crowdfund, it's so that an anti-communist organization can get ownership of it.
01:18:54.000Like, I'm saying, like, I don't like the idea we do a give-send-go, everyone gives money, which effectively gives me... I don't want the statue.
01:19:00.000Like, if I was going to buy this statue on my own, I'd buy it on my own, and I'd charge admission for being able to defile it, because that's hilarious.
01:19:05.000Turning him into a capitalist spectacle for capitalists to make money off of is just, mm, oh, it's icing on the cake.
01:20:21.000He's got like a thing behind him you can sit on?
01:20:23.000Maybe you can set up a drum kit back there or something?
01:20:26.000I'm gonna pursue this because I look at the great works.
01:20:32.000I look at the... I play Civilization, right?
01:20:36.000And in Civilization, every so often you get great figures.
01:20:39.000So it's like, you'll get a little dude, he'll be called, like, musician, and then you can place him somewhere and he makes culture, but every so often you'll get, like, Beethoven appears, and he's a guy you can go and then create a great work, and the great work creates cultural influence.
01:20:50.000And I think about, where are we today?
01:20:52.000Where's all of the significant cultural stuff that matters to people of this generation?
01:20:57.000I saw a meme, and it's a bunch of cassette tapes, and it said all of these albums came out within, like, four months of each other.
01:21:26.000I'm not saying nothing's been done, I'm just saying like, think about the things that we should create to create that memory and that cultural waypoint, as it were.
01:22:15.000So, you know, destroying the statue for no reason, just like toppling it is stupid.
01:22:20.000But doing something cultural and artistic with it is important.
01:22:23.000You know one of the things I like about that civilization reference, you're talking about great people, when your society produces a great person, Beethoven, Steve Jobs, whoever, when you get multiple great people all produced at the same time in history, they can come together to create a golden age.
01:22:37.000And that's what's happened with the internet.
01:22:40.000We're in a time of immense crisis, but we're in a golden age while we're suffering the crisis, so it's that much easier.
01:22:46.000We've got to use it while we have it, because it's, you know, every age comes to an end.
01:22:50.000Maybe we write a song And then we can use it in the music video?
01:22:56.000Like, I'm thinking, like, can we create an artistic work that represents, you know, we deride and explain how bad communism is?
01:23:04.000And there's a message that I think people often say that doesn't get enough attention, it doesn't permeate enough, and it's that the communists were infinitely worse, or I shouldn't say infinitely, but were substantially worse in many ways than the Nazis.
01:23:14.000The Nazis committed probably one of the most, like, evil atrocities, but the communists had this long, drawn-out 70 years, or longer, 100 years, even still to this day, with what China has done to the Uighur Muslims, it's just this endless history of hundreds of millions of dead.
01:23:29.000The Holodomor happened before the Holocaust, right?
01:23:31.000And these things are horrifying and evil.
01:23:35.000So, at least saying, like, guys, we get it.
01:23:39.000But can we also add Communism into the enlisted people?
01:23:41.000I don't understand how we don't have Communism.
01:23:43.000I mean, I don't know, depending on whatever number you want to use for how many people perished under Nazism, but Communism, that number is so much more.
01:24:08.000Just him, like, half out of the ground.
01:24:10.000Dude, the Lennon statue in Chicken City would be the best thing ever.
01:24:14.000Those poor chickens just having to deal with this thing.
01:24:17.000No, the chickens would, we would put the perch right above it, where they sleep, and they just crap in their sleep and it plops right onto Lennon.
01:24:40.000That's gonna be a serious cost to ship.
01:24:42.000You get a bunch of people to do a road trip.
01:24:44.000You go pick it up and That's why I'm like, I really do think we could muster up a crowdfund between, it's not just about what this show can do, but if I reached out to a bunch of other personalities and said, guys, let's promote this and get a non-profit to buy this statue and then do something critical of communism with it, we'd raise that money overnight.
01:25:04.000I think that there is communism still today and a lot of people just don't know, don't know what it is, don't know how miserable it is, don't understand the crisis.
01:25:14.000Again, going back to Miami, over a million people who have fled communist regimes live in Miami today.
01:25:22.000And so, yeah, if you got to live it or talk to people who've lived it or do something like this, buy a statue and make sure people know what's going on.
01:25:31.000Is the reason it fails and just always has failed is because it sounds great, everyone's gonna get enough, and then it gets to the point where you have so many people, we don't have enough resources now, everyone can't have enough.
01:25:41.000It fails because human beings are not geared to be socialists.
01:25:47.000Well, in small groups we are, like in a family unit.
01:25:49.000Sure, but that's your desire to give to your children, to give to your wife, to give to the people that you love.
01:25:59.000If I tell you, hey, I really need some money and I just, I want it because I want it.
01:26:04.000What drives you to go make that money for me?
01:26:07.000If you were my neighbor and you were like, I want some money because I'm going to plant some corn, I could see like... Ian, you're talking about a concept that has to be at least national, right?
01:26:20.000So you're talking about millions of people.
01:26:21.000And things work differently at different resolutions, right?
01:26:26.000So the way that The way that a family works.
01:26:32.000There's only four, five, six, whatever, ten in your immediate family.
01:26:47.000But once you get to your neighborhood, You can't have a communist neighborhood.
01:26:52.000You can might have some kind of, you can have social programs or social get-togethers and your neighbors can help each other, but it can't be just like, hey, Joe makes 100 grand and Bill makes 30, so we're gonna take, you know, Joe's money and give some of it to Bill and stuff, and that's the way that it ends up working out.
01:27:06.000That ends up creating animosity, it ends up making mistrust, it ends up making people not feel like working.
01:27:12.000There's this idea called the tragedy of the commons, right?
01:27:14.000So if no one owns something, no one takes care of it because they don't feel like they're responsible for it.
01:27:19.000That's one of the things that property does, right?
01:27:21.000If you own something, then you feel like it is a part of you on some level, and it gives you the desire to take care of it, to make it better, to build on it.
01:27:32.000If you don't have to take care of it, what happens?
01:27:35.000Everybody pisses on the seat, because you don't have to clean the toilet.
01:27:38.000Public toilets are always a mess, because no one takes care of them.
01:27:42.000Like I was thinking, then does it break down in a little society because communism doesn't work after 60 people or something because there's someone in charge?
01:27:51.000Right, and there's always somebody in charge because, like, when you remove the incentive to do anything because everyone's getting the same thing, then it becomes about forcing people to do something and then People are appointed to force other people to do stuff and then before long it just... I mean, just think about it.
01:28:09.000What incentivizes you to do things, right?
01:28:24.000Do your job and you come home with your money and you pay for things.
01:28:27.000If everything was guaranteed to you, light, electricity, everything, you know, you just, you had it.
01:28:32.000What's going to incentivize you to leave?
01:28:35.000And go be productive and go make things and go be part of the society.
01:28:39.000You know, it's kind of like what happened in COVID and I think to this day a lot of people have been talking about like there's some something shifted in our in our culture a little bit where people just maybe don't necessarily want to do a job, you know, because you were incentivized to stay home and and it kind of it's awesome.
01:28:58.000I mean great you get to stay home and live your life.
01:29:01.000And somebody else is going to provide for you.
01:29:06.000That food at the supermarket doesn't magically just go up.
01:29:09.000It's not like somebody in the back of your supermarket, of your local supermarket is just like, you know, these things magically come out of something.
01:29:55.000And do you think that you need to let people suffer?
01:29:57.000I think, I'll just tell you this, I think that you need to let people suffer and the ones that pick themselves up and strive for something better are the success ones that send their genetics on to the next generation and the ones that they can't get out of the suffering die off and their genetics no longer with us.
01:30:10.000You ever look at the Instagram page like, what is it, Nature is Metal?
01:30:18.000So, one of the things that that page constantly says, right, and shows you all kinds of stuff, animals get eaten all the time, and he's like, look, nature's not fair.
01:31:03.000And that's one of the things that individuals that are free can do.
01:31:07.000If you have decentralized, and you should, you understand decentralized more than most people, but if you have decentralized power, one person cheating or taking advantage of someone else or whatever doesn't ruin the system.
01:31:19.000But if you have centralized power, then the incentive for the people in charge is to do whatever the hell they want.
01:31:29.000Our government isn't a communist government, like it's not a totalitarian communist government, but the government currently is persecuting people that have bad opinions, because who's going to stop them?
01:31:40.000You know, I was just thinking we should probably do a Kickstarter for the Lenin statue shooting range thing, which would undoubtedly be rejected by Kickstarter.
01:31:49.000But it would just really be really funny to have like that video where we're like, you know, our plan is to start a business that brings people together.
01:33:46.000So, uh, we're gonna go to Super Chats.
01:33:49.000If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share this show with your friends, head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member, to watch the members-only portion of this show, and, uh, we will, uh, have you guys call into the show, and you can talk to us and our guests, it'll be good fun.
01:34:06.000But for the time being, let's, uh, read your Super Chats.
01:34:09.000I'm not your buddy, guys, as I believe your theory on 2020 and lockdowns is challenged by them wanting to re-implement those measures.
01:34:16.000It wasn't anger, but rather opportunity for fewer integrity measures.
01:34:20.000Throw in media hysteria mixed with cult members, and you got willing lone wolves committing fraud.
01:35:44.000And it's just funny because it's like, well, you said if they voted for you, you'd make it a sanctuary city and maintain that policy, and you did, and now it's all burning down around you.
01:36:03.000Blah blah blah says, watched a bit about Baldur's Gate, with all the wokeness stuff being at the forefront, I think being able to get screwed by a bear was overlooked lol.
01:37:06.000So I can at least know what the heck you guys are talking about.
01:37:09.000Isn't this the one you and Ian are playing?
01:37:11.000Uh, Ian, yeah, Ian was playing it first, but I guess he stopped.
01:37:14.000I've been playing it, I've got about six hours in.
01:37:18.000My biggest problem with it right now, so it's basically Dungeons and Dragons.
01:37:21.000And so, it's a really awesome mechanic.
01:37:24.000That it's like, if you are in combat and you fire an arrow at someone, it's like your attack versus their defense or whatever, so there's actually a D20, a dice roll and stuff like that.
01:37:33.000The problem I'm having with it is that The path I'm taking in the game, naturally, is charisma and persuasion, meaning I'm succeeding by talking my way through everything, which creates a problem because my characters are savvy, but can't fight.
01:38:10.000If I'm leveling up through persuasion and charisma and not focusing on combat, like, tell me that before, because I had to go back and reload.
01:38:18.000I saved, like, 30 minutes of practice.
01:38:22.000Yeah, like, I walk out of the... I don't want to give too much of the game away, but I walk out of a room and there's, like, 12 NPCs, instant combat, and I'm like, well, I'm dead.
01:38:30.000You maybe need to do side quests to build up, get up to level 4 or something.
01:38:34.000That's fine, and I understand that, like, with most RPGs.
01:38:38.000But it's just an issue of, in most RPGs, as you're progressing through the story, your combat is leveling up, and then you might say, ah, the next level is a little high, so I better, you know, level up my guys.
01:39:09.000Larian Studios, who's making Baldur's Gate 3, their earlier two games were the Divinity and Divinity 2 games, and they're like 98 out of 100 top-level games, just like Baldur's Gate, top-down, isometric.
01:39:19.000But they're more crazy, like you can teleport, you know, there's tons of stuff.
01:39:56.000Like I said, you're gonna be in Miami.
01:39:58.000I can definitely introduce you to a whole bunch.
01:40:01.000I mean, that would be super amazing if we did, like, uh... Maybe- maybe we- maybe we get something with- we do, like, one of those panels where you get, you know, you get 10 people to sit down in chairs and you ask them questions about what's going on.
01:41:05.000But is he naive or is he just evil and doesn't understand?
01:41:09.000Because I think that, you know, ultimately, if you are in favor of this and, you know, it always ends in people starving and people being killed and stuff.
01:41:19.000You have to be a little evil to like this, to want that.
01:41:23.000I mean, it's just... The path to hell is paved with good intentions.
01:41:26.000Yeah, they paint it like it's such wonderful... How old is he? 22?
01:41:29.000Yeah, but I mean, come on, he's 22 and he's young and whatever, but he's not dumb, right?
01:41:36.000There's a difference between the people who are willfully lying and the people who have been tricked and are saying dumb things.
01:41:41.000We can call it the banality of evil in that they're going along with it.
01:41:44.000But the thing about Hinkle is, I don't even think he is of the banality of evil communism.
01:41:50.000There are people who are like, Communism is actually good.
01:41:53.000Like, I've read Marx, and it's like, okay, you're the banality.
01:41:56.000Then you've got people who know what it really is and lie to you, and that's the malice and the abject.
01:42:02.000But what he's saying isn't even communism.
01:42:04.000He was not describing communism, at least in our conversation.
01:42:07.000Yeah, I think the best thing to do with Henkel... I mean, I guess he's got stuff on the internet, but it's probably good to go ahead and just, like, list off a bunch of things that typically communism... He's talking about, like, regulation.
01:42:23.000Like, we had a similar vision of, like, socializing certain aspects of our governance, but how we get there is, like, do you want to use communism to get there?
01:42:30.000Do you want to use, like, voluntarism to get there?
01:42:33.000Which I... I don't know how you guys feel about that.
01:42:35.000The libertarians would always be like, voluntarism's the way.
01:43:22.000I heard him talking about this one time.
01:43:23.000There's this odd thing that happens when you purchase something, right?
01:43:27.000You go to the store and you give them money and they give you the thing or whatever and you both say thank you.
01:43:36.000Like, that's very rare where both people are thanking each other, because both people feel like they have had a good experience in the exchange, right?
01:43:46.000You wanted the thing more than you wanted the money, and the people that had the thing want the money more than the thing, right?
01:43:54.000And that filling the need of another person is part of what makes markets work.
01:44:03.000The fact that You have the ability to fill a need, and they can pay you, which is that positive exchange.
01:44:10.000That's why markets work, and that's one of the things that's very pro-social about markets, that just doesn't exist in command economies, like a socialist system.
01:44:20.000There's no thank you, when you just have a, you know, you go in and get your ticket, or if you're sitting in a bread line for hours and stuff to get, you know, just the basics and stuff.
01:44:29.000So, that's one of the things about volunteerism, is both people are engaging, Because they want to, in a voluntary way, and both people come out feeling like they got at least a decent deal, or both people come out feeling like they got screwed, and that's how you know that you got a good deal too.
01:44:46.000If the guy you did business with feels like you took him and you kind of feel like the guy took you, well then you probably got a fair deal, you know?
01:44:53.000Alright, the text vet says, The Trump flag shown is obviously speaking about the US, not individuals.
01:44:58.000That's why it shows 1776, they're saying, Trump to win, or America is dead.
01:45:04.000It seems fairly obvious as that's what everyone's been saying.
01:46:11.000I do think there is something to be said about God uniting a people.
01:46:16.000I don't see how you create a culture of faith in the United States today.
01:46:21.000But if you were to look back at the past in the United States, people hated each other and they fought politically, but they all at least shared a moral framework, and that is their faith.
01:46:34.000Yeah, I see it with Judaism, Islam, and Christianity all focusing on a unifaith, this one God.
01:46:42.000A shared moral framework creates stability.
01:46:44.000And it doesn't matter who your political leader is, if everyone has the same morals.
01:46:48.000They fear, if I do something wrong, I will be punished by someone else.
01:46:52.000And so it's interesting that faith in a god or religion that has Punishment for bad deeds means you're not going to be the liar, the cheater, the stealer, because there is someone who is coming to punish you.
01:47:05.000Yeah, and it doesn't need to be a president, but I think a human that can translate the ideas of God and graphene or something, you know, whatever it is that unifies the people, if someone can translate that to the people, like Gandhi, he wasn't the president of India, he was just a guy, he was just a lawyer, but he rose to the occasion and inspired people to free themselves.
01:47:22.000Neglectful Sausage says, Tim Pool smoking that copium.
01:47:25.000Quote, they're ramping up arrests and putting people on the right in for 20 years.
01:49:18.000If this country was that beacon of freedom, that's why everyone wants to be here anyways, even though we're not.
01:49:24.000Because we are, you know, we do have that, like, one of the things I've thought about this is, is why don't we have an Elon Musk in Latin America?
01:49:33.000Why is it that only the United States has these people coming here with all these great ideas and starting these great companies?
01:49:39.000It's that freedom that brings people here.
01:49:41.000You want the best from around the world to come here.
01:49:44.000You want the best minds here in the United States.
01:49:54.000Feel however you want to feel about immigration.
01:49:56.000I'm not going to debate it, but if you had a policy where you, hey, all of those people who in Venezuela, Cuba, whatever, that are those great thinkers, that are those great doers, why wouldn't you want them here?
01:50:23.000So less federal authority allows for more privatization and wealth gain growth, which makes you more resistant to a foreign nation.
01:50:33.000It's actually the wealth of the nation.
01:50:34.000In my generation, I went from using a telephone on the wall because we had a monopoly with Mabel, and as soon as that government control of it went away, look at us now.
01:50:44.000We have these little devices in our hands.
01:51:07.000Government does not help you in any way, shape, or form.
01:51:11.000Some proprietary monopolies can be really destructive.
01:51:16.000If Google were to try and take over the world right now, Alphabet, we would need our government to help protect us, at least on American soil.
01:51:21.000take over the world if there is no government making them the only people doing things.
01:52:08.000They invest ridiculous sums of money into this foundation.
01:52:11.000They build a machine that's hard to move.
01:52:13.000As time progresses, their methodologies and technologies become more and more obsolete or archaic, and upstarts, startups, become disruptive and start moving in.
01:52:23.000What we typically see is the government then create roadblocks to support the jobs by propping up failing industries.
01:52:30.000So, in not every circumstance, but there are many circumstances where We'd be better off if these systems were allowed to collapse and crumble into themselves.
01:52:40.000So you have companies that should have failed.
01:52:42.000The auto industry crumbled from their own errors.
01:52:46.000But then you look at government programs.
01:52:48.000These things should be better handled by non-profits.
01:52:52.000I have no problem with social programs.
01:52:54.000The problem I have is they're not allowed to fail.
01:52:57.000Once social programs run out, don't work anymore, whenever any program is created, it should have a sunset clause.
01:53:02.000This is for five years, then it's done.
01:53:04.000Instead, you get these welfare programs, they keep putting band-aids over and tape over and it keeps making a bigger and bigger system that can't fail and it gets broken and worse and it just infects and it gets... there's problems there.
01:53:36.000The media did play a huge part in the back and forth, but so did Don.
01:53:40.000Telling Hillary Clinton he would have her arrested and thrown in jail while he was campaigning... Yeah, it's way worse that they're actually arresting people and throwing people in jail.
01:53:47.000I know, but he opened up the gate for... That's my opinion.
01:53:50.000By saying that on stage, for a power play, it's like, what are you messing with, bro?
01:56:00.000Papa Jack's Pizza Shack with skate park in the back.
01:56:03.000Yeah, don't eat before you skate, eat after you skate.
01:56:06.000It's not really, the skate park isn't really a part of Papa Jack's Pizza Shack, it's just on the other side of the street, you know what I mean?
01:57:42.000That's gonna be, like, you know, we gotta talk to the locals.
01:57:45.000Yeah, yeah, with the city and everything.
01:57:46.000We could shut it down and do street festivals on Sundays.
01:57:49.000But I'm thinking, it's, one thing that we can do is with, uh, With our coffee shop and the small stage we have, we could easily get big bands.
01:57:58.000We could afford to pay them to come out and make this a big attraction.
01:58:17.000Whereas like a small coffee shop normally wouldn't be able to pay major label bands, we could do that for the purpose of bringing people to our space, and then they go get dinner at Papa Jack's Pizza Shack.
01:58:27.000They get a hotel room next morning, they wake up and they go to Cousin T's Diner.
01:58:30.000Aw, dude, this would be the coolest thing ever.
01:58:36.000Do you guys know anybody at the Hilton?
01:58:39.000I think this would be just good for everybody.
01:58:41.000I wonder what the people there... So, what I do know is that locals Because we're working there already, and we've had a bunch of people ask us, like, can you please invest and help build this stuff up?
01:58:53.000And I think it'd be really cool if we brought all these parallel economy businesses and brought them in.
01:58:59.000We could probably just go down the list of Public Square and be like, if you're a company on Public Square, how would you like to, let's do this!
01:59:08.000Well, we're gonna be doing it at the very least.
01:59:09.000We're gonna be, uh, I've been talking to Jack Posobiec about a family pizza chain for a long time because, you know, his big thing is Pizza Hut nationalism.
01:59:18.000But, but it's like, he brings a good point, like, there's this viral video of 1989 of Pizza Hut, and it was a bunch of people coming and having a birthday party, and it's like, when do we do this anymore?
02:00:08.000Oh, bro, because the Insert Video Game competition is going to be held at your local GameStop Friday night, and you can win 50 bucks in store credit, or you can go to nationals, or you can get into these leagues or whatever.
02:00:20.000If you're playing video games, esports competitively, what's your local hub?
