In this episode, we discuss the ongoing censorship of free speech on the internet, and how it affects our civil rights. We are joined by Dan Gaynor, VP of Free Speech America, to talk about the problem of censorship.
00:00:37.000Nothing definitive, but there is a lot of news still in Afghanistan, and I gotta be honest, guys, you know, I do think the Afghanistan stuff is probably the most important, but at a certain point, it's like, we have talked about it so much, I have talked about it so much, that I want- well, we're gonna talk about it, obviously, but I wanted to lead in with something else, just because the Afghanistan stuff is some of the most depressing and dark stuff, and then it reminds you, and here I go reminding you, that there's- the Emperor has no clothes.
00:01:13.000Apparently, he got banned off YouTube, you know, where he was still allowed.
00:01:17.000And, you know, a lot of people, I guess, haven't heard from him in a long time because of the censorship, but censorship is still happening.
00:01:26.000And we're being joined by one of the experts on censorship, Dan Gaynor.
00:01:31.000I'm Vice President for Free Speech America at the Media Research Center, and we spend all our time trying to stop what's become an absolute madness on the Internet, taking away all of our freedom to speak, to say anything.
00:01:44.000It was awful before, and then COVID just went insane because they feel you've now got the President of the United States and the Surgeon General who are trying to force the social media companies to restrict speech.
00:02:01.000There's a story right now from ScienceMag.
00:02:04.000NewsGuard certified, ScienceMag, a legitimate publication, talking about, I think it's infection rates, or no, I'm sorry, it's talking about likelihood of You don't want to be too specific because you know what's going to happen to you.
00:02:39.000And we know this has been going on because Twitter shut down the Hunter Biden stories.
00:02:43.000There was collusion between Big Tech and the Democratic Party to shut down negative stories about Biden.
00:02:48.000And then we saw that Rasmussen poll that said if people were aware of what Joe and his son had done, Joe meaning like flying his son to China on Air Force Two and meeting with his business partners, people wouldn't have voted for him.
00:03:01.000I've been online since before the World Wide Web.
00:03:06.000And which means A, I'm old and B, I've got this nice perspective when it was when it was pleasant.
00:03:11.000You when you had like people talking online about the Guild, you know, and Felicia Day and everything was nice.
00:03:18.000And then, you know, things started crazy in 2014.
00:03:21.000And then it got worse and worse in 15, 16 with the election.
00:03:25.000And after Trump won, largely on the basis of social media, because he had a he was a social media powerhouse.
00:03:33.000The social media companies in the left, and particularly in the traditional press, who are the biggest advocates for censorship, they went completely insane.
00:03:41.000It just determined, okay, you guys won with it, we're going to take it all.
00:03:45.000Even though we call ourselves Free Speech America, that was when we launched that sort of our mindset.
00:03:51.000Now it's not about free speech anymore, because It was before even COVID, but now because of COVID, everything, you spend all of your lives online.
00:04:01.000You go to school, your kids do, or you do.
00:04:04.000You work, you sell, you buy, you go to see the doctor, you interact with your government, you do everything, including banking.
00:04:13.000And if they censor us online in those, then it's not an issue of free speech.
00:04:19.000It's simply, are you a first class or a third class citizen at this point?
00:04:26.000Yeah, as you're talking about this, I'm thinking of the frogs in the pot and how we're slowly, this is like, oh, it's just a little bit of censorship here, a little bit there.
00:04:46.000Yeah, I'm excited too, as I already pitched in, because as soon as I saw this thing on Twitter, I called my magic special source who has two different master's degrees, including one in biomedical sciences, and I was like, bro, bro, is getting a disease better or worse than getting the shot?
00:05:01.000Because with chickenpox, if you don't want to get shingles, you should get the shot.
00:05:05.000And he was like, it depends on the virus, depends on all this stuff, but there's no reason for Twitter to be censoring this.
00:05:10.000So I'm really excited to be talking about this.
00:05:12.000Before we get started, head over to TimCast.com, become a member, and you will get an advertisement-free experience as you browse the website, plus all of our members-only podcasts from the TimCast IRL show, and you'll be supporting our fierce and independent journalists.
00:05:47.000intelligence community's report on COVID-19 says it's plausible the virus leaked from a lab in Wuhan, and that it might be genetically engineered.
00:05:56.000I suppose at the very least, this, you know, now when the media says it's a conspiracy theory, that it's a genetically modified lab leak or something, you can be like, well, they said maybe.
00:06:48.000Saying that it's evident and that it looks like it is very likely is very different than saying it is.
00:06:52.000But journalists have been doing this for basically the history of journalism, saying, hey, we've got sources saying that this is going to happen.
00:07:01.000You're not allowed to criticize the World Health Organization or the CDC, basically, by these social media companies.
00:07:06.000But then New York Times can run a story.
00:07:09.000They did a story at the end of 2019, right at the end of the year, about the World Health Organization.
00:07:15.000They said one of the one of the givens of the World Health Organization is that they want you to keep open borders in the middle of a pandemic, which I think ordinary people would go, well, that's nuts.
00:07:38.000Well, because we're supposed to listen to the science-y people at the World Health Organization.
00:07:42.000Well, now the funny thing is, you know, and we'll give YouTube its piece in all of the horse dewormer stories.
00:07:52.000You know, it's the craziest thing seeing every single outlet refer to ivermectin as horse medicine, because it's like, don't they give ibuprofen to dogs?
00:08:36.000But how the media is treating it this way, how we have to even be careful bringing it up because... Nobody who dares... Oh, wait, you said the wrong thing.
00:08:47.000And he got documents restricted by Google Docs.
00:08:53.000Now if that is not 1984-ish, oh you've got stuff, you can't share them to other human beings even though you wrote them and they involve documents that you sent to world leaders, but you can't share them to other human beings because they're locked out.
00:09:11.000I mean that that is there was a I think bit shoot was banned like Twitter had banned links to bit shoot or I think they still do it like gives you a warning and there was one thing I tweeted about I can't remember what it was but it was like if you tried to tweet it it would give you an error and so they're like oops sites broken that's all it is and then you're like this one link remember when Facebook banned mines Hmm.
00:10:11.000Their website was banned on Facebook, even though it didn't violate any Facebook rules.
00:10:17.000The Facebook, you know, authoritarians who don't like hunting So, you know, looping back to the report, which tells us literally nothing, you know, the COVID origins report, you're basically saying that at least this allows us to talk about it now, right?
00:10:33.000Because before it was like, if you brought this stuff up, you're a conspiracy theorist, you risk it to restrict anything they don't like.
00:10:38.000Then the people who enforce them are people who restrict anything they don't like.
00:10:43.000And then the people you appeal to are the people restrict anything you don't like.
00:12:13.000And so I looked up, I saw the tag on my tweet, screenshot it, I didn't post it, and then it said false information, here's why, and I clicked it, went to their story, which confirmed every single thing in my tweet was correct.
00:12:25.000When I called the guy from the company, he was irate and yelling.
00:12:29.000And he was like, I refuse to change it.
00:12:32.000And his argument was basically that the way it was phrased in the tweet could give the wrong impression.
00:12:38.000And I said, the impression is irrelevant when my facts are all correct.
00:12:41.000What someone assumes based on reading the tweet is irrelevant.
00:12:44.000I didn't say what you're accusing me of saying something like Bill Clinton went to Epstein Island or something, which I didn't say.
00:12:48.000I can't remember exactly what the tweet was.
00:12:51.000And then instead of instead of taking down the fake fact check, he left it up, but put, you know, like partially incorrect or something like that.
00:12:58.000So they can take a fact and then call it fake news and false information and then explain on their end that, well, it is technically true, but we just want to provide clarification.
00:13:10.000So now when you get hit on Facebook and Facebook strips you of monetization, that's the end result.
00:13:15.000Well, and what they do is their favorite is the context.
00:13:19.000You know, oh, you don't have enough context.
00:13:21.000Well, by that definition, the entire freaking world doesn't have enough context.
00:13:25.000Encyclopedia Britannica doesn't have enough context because, oh, you didn't include this book full of information about Afghanistan or those 27 books about, you know, pick your topic calculus.
00:13:37.000Oh, well, there's not enough information calculus in there.
00:13:41.000We got hit by PolitiFact for rerunning a CDC chart.
00:13:47.000Okay, so not doing anything controversial here.
00:13:50.000We re-ran a CDC chart linked to a story about it, and that story linked back to the CDC.
00:13:56.000PolitiFact gave us a fact check, gave us sort of like the trifecta of fact checks.
00:14:00.000They said, okay, well, we lacked context, but then they called it partly false, but then they put a big, you know, huge red capital letters, FALSE, On our chart.
00:14:13.000So what we did, we got more than 40 conservative organizations together and sent an obnoxious letter to the International Fact Checking Network and said, you've got to pull their card.
00:14:32.000And we didn't really think they would do it.
00:14:34.000But so now that's got to be the narrative.
00:14:36.000Every time PolitiFact does another lousy fact check, people go, you know, more than 40 organizations said this organization should lose its fact checking ability.
00:14:46.000Do you see when they, I can't remember which organization it was, they flagged the CDC itself as false news?
00:14:51.000Yeah, so on Facebook, a link to the CDC.
00:14:54.000It was an article from the CDC where they said that they were encouraging new testing for COVID.
00:15:01.000And so these Facebook fact-checkers flagged CDC.gov as fake news.
00:15:06.000And you know, the funny thing is, when I, so there's people you can reach out to at Facebook if you're one of the better men and the privileged elites, like we all are here.
00:15:17.000But the reality is, in this world, if you have a show and you have followers, then all of a sudden there's someone to talk to at Facebook.
00:15:23.000But the regular people, they're kicked to the gutter.
00:15:26.000So I know, I have the contact emails, I have the connections, and they said, when you get fact-checked on Facebook, it's not us, it's those third-party companies.
00:15:35.000And I argued Facebook has given special privileged access, that is not public accommodation, to these people.
00:15:44.000So you're effectively outsourcing Facebook's role in fact-checking to third parties.
00:15:49.000I would argue that is still Facebook's responsibility for defamation.
00:15:53.000If there is going to be a box that says fake information over my post, and that is not true, as a statement of fact, saying what I put was false information, Then I think Facebook and that company are responsible.
00:16:47.000You know, we said about right after they launched their red and blue feed to show that they were fact-checking both sides.
00:16:54.000But here's the game that these, that it's not just them, but that Facebook and all the companies play.
00:17:00.000When they fact-check somebody on the right, it's, you know, it goes, gets scattered all over Facebook and attached to everything that anybody posts about that.
00:17:09.000But if they do it for somebody left, it doesn't do that.
00:17:12.000So if they fact check some micro-organization, Occupy Democrats saying something stupid because they're idiots, if they fact check them, well then they won't say, oh by the way, they were actually citing something CNN did.
00:17:27.000They're not going to then attach that fact check to CNN.
00:17:49.000We've been dealing with it for a long time, and I guess the challenge is it just shows how dark things are continually getting, that we even move beyond this knowing it's happening and nothing's changed.
00:17:59.000We're now at a period where we can't have discussions about the science.
00:18:05.000They tell us, trust the science, and I'm like, okay, well, a bunch of scientists just came out.
00:18:20.000What about when Fauci outright, you know, got called out for, oh, moving the goalposts, which we, which in civilized society we call lying through his teeth.
00:18:28.000But when, when he did that, or when he lied about masking.
00:18:32.000What about when Sanjay Gupta, this is actually one of my favorite little elements from COVID, when early March 2019, when Sanjay or 2020, I mean, when Sanjay Gupta had a town hall at CNN where they had about 60 some people packed, you know, shoulder to shoulder in the audience, not wearing masks, when Gupta comes out and says on air that masking is dangerous.
00:19:00.000Then, oh, suddenly they decide that later on masking is good.
00:19:04.000Now, I'm okay with them doing that if they keep saying, by the way, you know, I said this dumb thing before and keep putting it out there.
00:19:13.000But what happens is all this stuff gets memory hold.
00:19:15.000Every time Fauci does something or Gupta does something or any of these people, they say something that's wrong or, you know, later on proven wrong.
00:19:42.000You may have heard that the January 6th committee submitted a letter to all these different government agencies demanding information on basically everybody in the Trump government, as well as a large number of activists who are just I mean, Scott Pressler is the most pressing example.
00:19:56.000He's a guy who registers Republicans to vote and he cleans up garbage.
00:19:59.000And they said they wanted every communication from the government to him going back to April 1st of 2020 into January 20th of 2021.
00:20:08.000This guy has nothing to do with any of it.
00:20:10.000And my understanding, he wasn't even in D.C.
00:20:14.000But this is their overreach, and now it's coming to the big tech firms, which is what we expected.
00:20:18.000When we had Jack Posobiec here, who was on this list, you know, the general idea we were talking about is, they'll eventually take it from the government to social media companies.
00:20:27.000Now, all of these big tech firms, who we know are biased, are going to start going after Trump supporters and activists.
00:20:34.000I'm willing to bet, if you're like some mid-level Trump supporter, your communications, your DMs will probably get leaked.
00:21:38.000The requests for records stretching back to the spring of 2020 are related to the spread of misinformation, efforts to overturn the 2020 election or prevent the certification of the results, domestic violent extremism, and foreign influence in the 2020 election, the committee said in a press release.
00:21:53.000They're also looking into policy changes that the social media companies adopted or failed to adopt regarding the spread of violent extremism, misinformation, and foreign malign influence that includes decisions on banning material from platforms and contacts with law enforcement and other government entities, the press release said.
00:22:08.000The committee's latest requests further underscore the role of social media on the Capitol attack, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:22:14.000They blamed Parler, but it was actually Facebook where people were getting together and scheduling and planning for January 6th.
00:22:22.000So, the coordination and collusion, I think, is obvious.
00:22:26.000And now, what's the chances that these companies just turn over all this data, and everyone who is anti-establishment all of a sudden has the worst possible things they've ever said taken out of context, plastered all over the internet, every story possible, and then what happens next after that is the financial institutions start saying, oh, whoa, oh, jeez, these stories, yep, gotta ban them.
00:22:46.000Well, financial institutions already are doing some of that.
00:22:48.000They did it to, I was going to say, one of the, one of the Republican Senate candidates in Delaware.
00:22:54.000We can't, we're not going to allow you.
00:22:55.000We're going to, we're going to shut down your bank account.
00:22:58.000We're going to, you know, you got PayPal doing the same thing, all these companies.
00:23:01.000But yes, that is, that's an enormous, insane, Stasi-like, you know, overreach of government into basically the lives of absolutely everybody.
00:23:14.000And you're right, it's not just, but it's not just the, they could, they could leak, oh, you, you know, you're having an affair on your wife, somebody's, you know, oh, you just, you send a dirty joke, you, anything they want, they can use against you with that.
00:23:28.000And unfortunately, we all, and I've certainly fallen this category, we've all spent years posting absolutely everything on social media.
00:23:37.000And beyond that, they also know who your friends are.
00:23:40.000So even if you've not done anything wrong, they can go after your family members.
00:23:46.000Oh, hey, you know, you're, you're, you know, you're 50 years old, you got kids who are in their 20s.
00:23:51.000Oh, you've never done, you've never even gone speeding.
00:23:55.000But your kids, oh, well, they've done something wrong.
00:23:57.000So, hey, we're going after the kids now.
00:24:01.000That's just the most broad insanity thing I've ever heard government do.
00:24:06.000It's very clear the path that we're on, where we're going.
00:24:09.000And at a certain point, I'm kind of just like, I don't know, what do we do?
00:24:12.000Do we just, you know, kick back, put your feet up and wait for the tsunami to crash over?
00:24:25.000Like Fediverse projects, things where things that can't be censored or that aren't censored by nature, things that are decentralized, stuff like that.
00:24:33.000You know, the cryptography and cryptocurrency.
00:24:35.000That's why they hate they hate crypto so much.
00:24:37.000They freak out about it because that really does put a Well, they can't monitor where your money goes.
00:24:46.000Depending on which one you use, if you use like Monero or Zcash, but Bitcoin is fully public, and they can easily track all of it.
00:24:56.000Yeah, when Chokepoint went after the gun companies and other stuff and went after drugs, you can't carry more than $10,000 of cash on you because, oh, you might be making a drug deal.
00:25:10.000Then when they found out people were carrying nine, they cut it back to eight.
00:25:15.000Because they don't want you to, you know, it's like, we don't want you carrying cash because you might actually buy something we don't approve of.
00:25:21.000And so now if we catch you with $8,001 in your car, we can take it all.
00:25:34.000If you're like running like a burger shop and you have like your day, daily cash from the right, from the tills, you're going to the bank with it.
00:26:24.000It's like something, I remember I'd grow up and I'd see like movies where people would get numbers and stuff like that, and how wrong and bad it was, and then it's like, but we've been doing this since, what is it, like 1916 or something?
00:26:39.000Yeah, so you want to do almost anything, you need a social security number, you need to be registered with the government, now you've got New York City saying you need a photo ID, state issued, in order to get access to any of these buildings.
00:27:05.000Apparently if you have COVID, but you're only going to be in for carryout, you can't cough on people or something.
00:27:10.000Also, I learned something really interesting is that when, uh, when you, when you first walk in, You're wearing the mask because COVID sits high, but when you sit down, you're underneath it.
00:28:19.000We have a solid high-speed connection right now.
00:28:22.000Yeah, I'll start singing Avenue Q for you know, maybe they'd be happy if we talked about that talk about porn, you know I just I do I wait there is something that needs to be said though.
00:28:32.000It needs to be said Ian Okay, y'all people need to hear this.
00:28:38.000I love You know Jack Dorsey good haircut Well, actually when he goes here out Jack Dorsey did tweet out Rothbard, so I guess I'll do Dorsey's Dorsey's Red pill.
00:28:51.000He's just co-opted by the corporation right now.
00:28:54.000Dorsey's also now he moved in from the, I've got the crazy like 400 mile beard into I'm now dating supermodels.
00:29:01.000So he is going through a little bit of a phase.
00:29:37.000But you know, look, actions speak louder than words, I suppose.
00:29:43.000Did you see when Jack Dorsey tweeted out Rothbard, the anatomy of the state, like all the libertarians and ancaps were like, they're like high-fiving each other.
00:30:36.000But the funny thing is like, I'll tell you exactly why I did a tweet like that.
00:30:40.000Because you have establishment left activists and how do they respond to that tweet?
00:30:45.000I said something very, very complimentary to Joe Biden, but the implication is it's Sarcasm!
00:30:54.000So, the interesting thing is that establishment Democrat-type activists completely ignore tweets like that.
00:31:00.000And I do that—it kind of proves a point.
00:31:03.000You know, there was—when I was tweeting about vaccine mandates being wrong, I get all of these establishment Democrat activists being like, you're crazy, you're wrong, there will be medical exemptions, everyone's gotta pitch in.
00:31:18.000And then when I called all of these restaurants, and I called New York City, and they said no medical exemptions, period.
00:31:25.000The same activists were nowhere in sight.
00:31:27.000No longer replying, no longer arguing.
00:31:29.000They could have replied with like, wow, I didn't see that coming.
00:31:31.000In fact, I sent messages to Cameron Kasky, the Parkland activist, because we had interacted on the idea of medical exemptions.
00:31:41.000Mandating vaccines and said, I wonder how many people are going to quit their jobs or lose their jobs.
00:31:46.000And he said, he responded, there's about to be a lot of openings for people who aren't stupid.
00:31:51.000And then I was like, some people have medical issues, bro.
00:31:52.000And he's like, well, there'll be exemptions.
00:31:54.000So when this thing with New York happened, I just, in good faith, I was like, Hey, just wanted you to see this because I know we had interacted on it.
00:32:01.000Because these people aren't acting in good faith.
00:32:03.000If I come out and say something like, you know, Joe Biden should do X, and then someone argues with me, and then Joe Biden goes and does X, I'll be like, well, you know, I should, I could eat my words.
00:32:13.000But you don't see that from most tribalists.
00:32:16.000And you look at, look at what's happening imminently to the military now.
00:32:20.000We've got hundreds of thousands of people in the military who are not vaccinated.
00:32:25.000And we're going around celebrating our heroes in Afghanistan.
00:32:29.000And the left and the right are both like, oh my god, we love the military, the military.
00:32:35.000But then we're going to turn around in a week or two, and a whole bunch of those people are going to be called up on charges, court-martialed, or get some sort of push down to the military.
00:32:46.000at a time when our military probably can't afford it and all just like they said the frontline health care workers oh my god we love the nurses and the doctors going at risk in their lives oh wait they're not getting the vaccine that's it for them and they literally throw they throw them out of a moving car And so, you know, it's the inconsistency.
00:33:05.000The person who doesn't get the vaccine, who chose for whatever reason doesn't get the vaccine, if they're out there risking their life for their country or saving lives as a health care worker, they're still the same darn person that was doing that.
00:33:19.000So I want to show this here, Anatomy of the State.
00:33:22.000So most of you, maybe if you missed it, we were just mentioning how Jack Dorsey, the CEO of Twitter, ever woke, tweeted out Murray Rothbard, Anatomy of the State.
00:33:35.000Libertarians and anarcho-capitalists were all hooting and hollering and freaking out.
00:33:39.000And on page six, which is, you know, the opening of Anatomy of the State, which Jack Dorsey himself posted, The greatest danger to the state is independent intellectual criticism.
00:33:52.000It's very interesting that Jack Dorsey would tweet something like that out considering Twitter actively tries to suppress intellectual criticism of the state.
00:34:02.000Maybe, maybe Jack, he's like, he's actually locked in a basement.
00:34:07.000And he's like, you know, and they run everything and he, he broke out and he's all gaunt and frail and like, they're coming to bring his food and the door opens and they're like, here's your food, Dorsey.
00:34:16.000And then he shoves the guy out of the way and he runs to the computer and he hits CTRL-C, CTRL-V and enemies say enter and they're like, no, and they grab him and they're dragging him back and he's like, no, freedom!
00:34:26.000And you can like see the Matrix as he's being pulled back.
00:34:29.000They throw him back in the room. Don't you ever pull something like that again? And then you know, uh, the other
00:34:33.000twitter exe He escaped from his cell and he tweeted out
00:34:36.000Rothbard and then they were like, oh, can we delete it? No, the next time he testifies in front of congress
00:34:42.000We'll have to watch as he blinks to see if he blinks He's got like a he's got like a brain chip
00:34:49.000It's like a thing on his temple and it like shorts out for a second and he's like I could I can think again
00:34:55.000And he goes to the computer and he sends it, and then they're like, oh guys, you gotta reboot Dorsey's mind control chip.
00:35:02.000And he goes, like the V chip from South Park?
00:35:06.000Yeah, so for the Rogan podcast, and he was talking about blockchain, and I think he's really naive.
00:35:10.000I think he doesn't know what he's talking about.
00:35:12.000I think he's, to be completely honest, nice guy, a bit duplicitous, right place and right time.
00:35:19.000Twitter is not particularly complicated.
00:35:21.000He said, we discovered Twitter, we didn't invent Twitter, things like that.
00:35:25.000And when I was talking to him before we did the Rogan podcast, like literally like minutes before, he was saying how he really wanted blockchain-based social media.
00:35:33.000And he was like, that way, once it's there, it's like there forever.
00:36:01.000In theory, what that should mean is that we all kind of get the get out of jail free for doing dumb stuff.
00:36:07.000But what in practice it means is, if you did dumb stuff that the elite don't approve of, you know, you can get cancelled at absolutely any point in time in your life.
00:36:18.000But if they're okay with the dumb stuff, you know, you were part of an Antifa attack or something, oh yeah, that's fine.
00:36:39.000Sounds like you've accomplished a lot in your life.
00:36:42.000Yes, it was hard, but we burned down some bars.
00:36:45.000That's basically the history of these people when they're older.
00:36:48.000There's a video that went viral of a journalist Who is trying to cover what's going on in Portland, and this Antifa gets in her face and says that, like, you are endangering people by spreading COVID, which is, like, the craziest thing for Antifa, I guess to say.
00:37:12.000They're effectively enforcing state edict or whatever.
00:37:20.000They march around these cities doing literally nothing, believing CNN, and thinking they oppose the state when they're doing everything the state would want them to do.
00:37:30.000Yeah, I mean, the brown shirts entirely, they say, oh, we're the original anti-fascists, and they post images.
00:37:36.000You'll see idiots like people at CNN posting images of D-Day landing, and like, oh, anti-fascists, and then comparing them, Chris Cuomo, to Antifa.
00:37:48.000I'm like, no, these are the worst of the gutter trash who go attack ordinary people on the street.
00:37:55.000And try to bully people just because they think or say different things.
00:38:20.000And they're like, we're going to defend that.
00:38:22.000And so you come out and be like the, there was actually an event happened in DC where a bunch of conservatives came down to protest corporate censorship and Antifa showed up calling them fascists and started attacking people.
00:38:34.000And I'm like, yo, are they, are they pro-corporation?
00:39:39.000I love, uh, I'm just reading, you know, I've, I have the anatomy of the state pulled up and just for Jack Dorsey to tweet something referring to the state as parasitic and sapping production and stuff like that.
00:39:48.000I'm like, wow, maybe he should apply those principles to the companies that he runs.
00:39:53.000You know, maybe things would get a little bit better, but, uh, I hate to say it.
00:39:56.000It just seems like things are getting worse and worse.
00:39:59.000And even, even with what's going on in Afghanistan and everyone kind of turning their back on Biden, it's not, it's, it's not in any way to imply that things will improve.
00:40:07.000No, I mean, I think, unfortunately, look, I thought we shouldn't be in Afghanistan anywhere near the length of time we were.
00:40:14.000I mean, if you follow anything about history, we changed the mission.
00:40:19.000Our military is really good at going and kicking somebody's ass.
00:40:34.000And so they went from being war fighters to prison guards and social workers.
00:40:41.000And that's just, you know, I don't care whether you're carrying the AK-47 or M-16 or whatever you're carrying, if you're trying to convince somebody to join the 21st century when, you know, he can't even read, That's just the wrong mission.
00:40:59.000You have to raise several generations and instill in them a norm.
00:41:04.000But to go into a country where we're there for 20 years, if you went to the American people and said, we want to be here for 100 years to colonize and reclaim, people would be like, get out of here.
00:42:22.000Tucker Carlson questions if Biden admin botched Afghanistan withdrawal on purpose.
00:42:27.000And we got some more stories to potentially back up the claim that Joe Biden screwed up Afghanistan on purpose.
00:42:33.000Tucker Carlson pondered whether or not the administration deliberately botched the Afghan withdrawal during his show Thursday evening.
00:42:39.000Carlson's guest Glenn Greenwald was discussing how there are elements in the political establishment that would like us to remain in Afghanistan.
00:42:45.000The conversation led to the host questioning if there was a possibility there was an interest in screwing up to justify future engagement.
00:42:51.000Quote, I never want to be a conspiracy nut at all, but I mean, everything you said is true so far.
00:43:22.000State Department and Biden's White House are blocking his efforts to rescue Afghan Christians from the Taliban who want to set them on fire.
00:43:30.000Why would they tell someone with the capability of helping in the evacuation not to?
00:43:38.000Unless they want the chaos so they can justify remaining.
00:43:43.000Well, I think there's some legitimate reasons and some illegitimate reasons.
00:43:48.000I mean, the illegitimate reason, they don't want to be shown up.
00:43:52.000Our troops have not been allowed to leave the airport area to go rescue Americans elsewhere in Kabul, much less the rest of Afghanistan.
00:44:00.000But, you know, if you flip it around, if you're trying not to have a confrontation with the Taliban and trying to get everybody out, and you've got random elements out there who, let's just say, are more cowboy-esque and willing to fight if they've got to, well then the Taliban's going to see that as engagement across the board, and then our troops are fighting.
00:44:23.000But what I can't see is when the State Department rejects when you get people to the airport, the State Department says, sorry, you can't commit that there.
00:44:32.000Our State Department is not requiring all the paperwork for everybody gets there that they're getting out.
00:46:26.000I can't imagine that it was an accident.
00:46:28.000Well, immediately after it happened, you get Biden come out and say, we're going to go after whoever did this at a time of our choosing at a place of basically saying, just so you all know, this is a green light for us to reinvade or to re-attack.
00:47:06.000Because the Taliban is not a top down organization.
00:47:10.000It's not, you know, it's not like the U.S.
00:47:12.000military where When the president gives an order, you expect a private somewhere 7,000 miles away to do exactly what the president ordered.
00:47:20.000So let's say the first time Taliban not just chops off the head of an American, but live casts it somewhere.
00:47:28.000you know, who spreads the video on the internet. What are we going to do about it? I mean,
00:47:33.000this is going to be an ongoing thing. How many hundreds or thousands of Americans and then also
00:47:39.000American allies are going to be left there? And, you know, it's so whether you like it or not,
00:47:46.000it's certainly been botched. You're right. I mean, we could have done we could have gotten
00:48:06.000If they said there is an imminent attack and Americans should stay away, But then told the Marines to keep working to process non-citizens for transport.
00:48:55.000But it was enough to say Americans should not come for evacuation, but not enough to say Marines should stop processing You could argue that they're trying to clear the crowd around the area so we can get Americans out, but the problem is the crowd doesn't dissipate.
00:49:26.000I mean, and you have some opportunity to get out.
00:49:29.000Why would you want to say in the, you know, seventh century lunatic asylum where you're going to be sex slave and, you know, that's just your entire future, not going to be able to, you're not going to be out of the burka.
00:49:40.000You're not going to be able to educate.
00:49:41.000You're not going to be able to educate your kids.
00:49:43.000The kids will be taken and basically put into military training.
00:50:11.000I mean, that's really the big question.
00:50:13.000You don't have to say we would take the whole exit plan to Bagram, but why did we close the base that's isolated and safe and you don't have really high buildings around where snipers could shoot at you and stuff like that?
00:50:32.000You know, part of me wants to believe that Biden fell asleep during a meeting and Kamala and Millie and the other, you know, members of his administration were just kind of like, so, early lunch?
00:51:36.000So, you know, I think about how Mike Judge took this concept of, like, if nature just rewards those who reproduce the most, what would happen?
00:51:45.000And I'm like, let's imagine a future based on American foreign policy in the Middle East and what it leads to.
00:51:55.000So you've got ISIS, you've got the supporting of Syrian rebels and arms dealing, not to mention Fast and Furious with the cartels, and you could make an idiocracy where it's like, After hundreds of years of the U.S.
00:52:08.000going into foreign countries for intervention, losing and then leaving behind hundreds of millions of dollars in supplies, the world ends up with, like, massive armed factions with, like, American-level technology in all these different parts of the globe, all going to war and just blowing each other up.
00:52:24.000You end up with, like, just 50 different Isises.
00:52:27.000Isis, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P. And they're all in different regions, all with Blackhawks and F-15s, bazookas and, Like, why didn't they decommission the planes?
00:53:10.000You know, the fact that it fell apart so fast because they tried to create a modern army for people who were not ready for it.
00:53:18.000Yeah, and Kurt Schlichter explained this, was saying that we built a modern American style army with massive amounts of logistics, which is like the backbone of our army.
00:54:11.000We're whipping out Command & Conquer, man.
00:54:13.000For those that aren't familiar with the reference, Command & Conquer is like an isometric strategy game where you collect resources, Tiberium, and then Similar to StarCraft.
00:54:22.000Yeah, so there's something you can build.
00:55:20.000And so I said, what if we took the magnetron out of a microwave, attached it to the end of a 2x4, put a soup can on it to direct the microwaves, and then carried one of those high-power batteries we have in our backs, and created a portable active-denial system, and then we could point that, which would effectively boil the water in the weeds, and kill them?
00:55:36.000And then I realized, whoa, we could build a portable active denial system.
00:56:10.000Yeah, so when you put the soup can, or I think they might use a Pringles can, it's like, depending on the frequency of the microwaves, it focuses it.
00:56:18.000They do these experiments where they will take a two by four, put the magnetron on it, plug it in, and they'll point it at fluorescent lights and the light up.
00:56:33.000I can't stand the nanny state trying to protect and control the mind because we have access to the most dangerous and epic equipment at all times.
00:56:41.000We have open flame, for instance, fire.
00:56:44.000Yeah, you can get your own flamethrower.
00:59:56.000It was justification for staying in the country.
00:59:58.000Well, I think I say because I mean, then you get into it is a legitimate question that journalists have not dug into is the military industrial complex.
01:00:06.000And where did all the generals who were in Afghanistan go to work after they left?
01:00:11.000And how much money did they make and how many of them were living in nice big houses now?
01:00:15.000And same for the politicians that then went to work for K Street.
01:00:19.000I mean, those are these are the questions that when you see articles in major media right now saying, oh, well, apparently all the Soldiers in Afghanistan who were training the Afghan soldiers realized this was all going to fall apart, that what we were setting up was flawed from the very beginning.
01:00:37.000And then you look, okay, well then why can't we dig into that?
01:00:40.000That's what journalists should be doing.
01:00:46.000I mean, like I said, 20 years, there's a lot of people on both sides who might be tied to this.
01:00:51.000That's what major media are for, to do that digging.
01:00:54.000But because to do that digging, you've got to also alienate the Washington inside the Beltway class, because they don't want that kind of digging, because it's going to make them all look bad.
01:01:58.000And because of this, we spend 20 years doing the same thing that's not working, over and over and over again, putting our hand on the stove and going, Ow!
01:03:42.000No experience and no understanding of how to maintain and build a system like this.
01:03:47.000What's worse is where we've reached now with government is government officials aren't even good at doing the one thing they should be good at, which is being government officials.
01:03:58.000FDR, for all of his flaws when he was basically the equivalent of a king, where he won presidency four times, I can't remember if it was in 42 or 43, somewhere out in Virginia, they established an operation to plan post-war, after we won, how to run Germany, Italy, and Japan.
01:04:20.000Now, think about that when the war was still wildly in doubt.
01:04:24.000We're devoting efforts to already plan to, you know, what happens when we win.
01:04:29.000So, of course, when we won, we had plans.
01:06:14.000They wanted Bagram Air Base for the end of time.
01:06:18.000I was like okay well why so they're the generals are pouting you know oh my god you took away our air base that we could access all sorts of stuff in asia well Then be honest about it.
01:06:30.000It's okay, well, we're gonna be there, we're not gonna ever leave, because we are the bad guests.
01:06:35.000We are the people who show up in your home at 5.30 in the evening, and come 4 a.m.
01:06:41.000after everybody's left, we're still sitting there, and we're saying, hey, you got some more chips?
01:06:46.000Yeah, but when we got there, we kicked the windows in to get in, and then sat down with M16s after we were supposed to be there.
01:06:53.000We're the guy at the dinner party where everybody is, you know, finishing off their plates and the waiter comes out and says, now, would any of you like dessert?
01:09:29.000And they were all given these dreams of, like, how amazing it will be if you can finally make it to Europe, and then he realized it was all not true.
01:09:36.000That coming here was actually worse off.
01:09:38.000That, you know, you don't speak the language, that your only option is to be a drug dealer, and now you're at risk of being imprisoned, and you're not free, and it's scary.
01:09:46.000When I went to France, I went outside one of these refugee centers, And this was the sentiment.
01:11:47.000But look at the border we've got with Canada.
01:11:49.000We've got a 3,000-mile unprotected border.
01:11:52.000So yes, if people want to go into Canada, Canada lets, you know, pre-COVID, Canada let anybody in.
01:11:58.000Now, Canada's also an insane asylum that just restricts every right you could possibly ever think you had.
01:12:07.000So pretty soon, I guess we're gonna start getting refugees from Canada into the United States, so we'll have to worry about that border, too.
01:12:13.000So this is, uh, yeah, I didn't see this story.
01:12:40.000Well also then, you have to remember, you wonder if when the Greeks build that wall, if they're also thinking about the fact that they tend to maybe go to war with the Turks?
01:12:52.000Is this just one more sort of discouragement to the Turks roaming in and attacking them?
01:13:09.000You know, when we were hearing China was turning back ships from American companies because they wanted to keep the equipment, the PPE and stuff like that.
01:14:02.000Yeah, and so we still were sort of basking in that, but times changed.
01:14:09.000When the internet got invented, Fortress America went away because suddenly Russia, China, and Iran, anybody else who wanted to involve themselves in America could do so every single day.
01:14:25.000They could do it on the internet and social media made it worse.
01:14:28.000It's not, let's talk about, you know, Russia.
01:14:44.000But meanwhile, Chinese media companies have 751 million followers on Facebook.
01:14:51.000million followers on Facebook. Oh yeah. 751 million followers and pushing out
01:14:59.000pro-China propaganda. I don't see Facebook kicking them off.
01:15:03.000I don't see them restricting because they don't dare mess with China.
01:15:06.000And not to mention, in fact, of course, the money they're getting from the ad placement on those 751 million users.
01:15:15.000Yeah, I was looking at Facebook followers, man, and these politicians will have like 600,000 followers, 300,000 followers, people I've never really even heard of or just starting to hear of.
01:15:25.000It could be, that could be a good thing that they're becoming famous, but they're not really that special of people.
01:15:30.000Like I don't, they don't strike me as like exceptionally talented or intelligent, maybe, maybe intelligent, maybe, but they just, they put them, so they ran for that position.
01:15:37.000They won the popularity contest and now they're.
01:15:40.000Super like 27 year old people have hundreds of thousands of followers that will never leave like for the rest of their life.
01:16:09.000I mean, that's what happened with Swalwell.
01:16:13.000If you're not an especially famous congressman and And some hot young girl wants to, I'll use the air quotes again, euphemistically date you.
01:16:26.000And, you know, alarm bells should go off in your head if she's super hot and old Chinese.
01:16:40.000The frumpy weird kid, you know, and he's, you know, Just trying to be cool and fit in and then all of a sudden this attractive woman and he falls right for it.
01:16:58.000His statement was like, when I was a kid I was super unpopular and girls never liked me and now he's super famous and he's got all these like 17 year olds coming up to him and crawling all over him at bars.
01:17:07.000So he was a creepy weirdo when he was young and he's an even creepier weirdo when he's older.
01:18:02.000High school, grade schools, high schools, college, bend over backwards.
01:18:06.000The stars of our pro sports, even the secondary or tertiary players in our pro sports, were people who were stars every step along the way in their lives.
01:18:17.000Ravens right now have a backup quarterback who actually beat Lamar Jackson, the starting quarterback, when they were in high school together.
01:18:25.000And so, Now he's a backup quarterback in the NFL, maybe he's the second quarterback, and he's always been a star.
01:18:36.000When that happens, you'll have women throw themselves at you, or men, depending on who you are.
01:18:44.000Financial opportunities, everybody thinks everything you say and do is perfect.
01:19:05.000Every time I hire people, I have to sit down and try to explain to them, yes, you're allowed to tell me I'm wrong.
01:19:11.000Matter of fact, you're encouraged to do it because sometimes I'm an idiot.
01:19:14.000That's a good point because we hire them, but then they hire a bunch of yes-men to surround them as they do their job, like their staff, these politicians.
01:19:23.000Or they're politicians because yes-men surround them and tell them to run.
01:19:29.000I was reading that celebrities tend to be narcissists, because narcissists tend to be the people who insert themselves.
01:19:37.000And so, it's no surprise the people who are on TV all the time are the people who are demanded to be on TV because they think they're better than you.
01:19:45.000You get a bunch of narcissists and sociopaths.
01:21:33.000A lot of Bernie Sanders people voting for Donald Trump.
01:21:36.000People were frustrated with the powers that be.
01:21:39.000You think people were frustrated with the powers that be when they voted for Donald Trump?
01:21:43.000You get three and a half more years of what's been going on the last seven months, and they'll be willing to vote for the ice cream salesman down the street.
01:21:52.000Let's say, establishment politics, we will call Substance X.
01:21:58.000And Substance X has been pouring out of all of our faucets and our vents and our TVs.
01:22:21.000And now Biden is like ultra concentrated substance acts.
01:22:25.000It's like, it's like it builds up and then Trump holds it back for a few years and then boom, it comes out and you get everything that people hated about establishment politics going back for decades.
01:22:36.000Biden is, and with along, along, along with the media, like a hyper concentrated version of it.
01:22:42.000Well, it's not just by its particulars.
01:22:44.000I mean, right, whether how much Biden is doing the self, it's certainly the establishment that's running DC right now is, you know, the back of the woke politics, the woke, you know, stuff in school, critical race theory, which is racism.
01:23:01.000All of this stuff is so overwhelming now that it it's intended to overwhelm you it's intended to make you lose hope it's intended to make you give up and just accept it we're living through a cultural revolution so yes culture so so all that stuff is still downstream from from culture but the difference is culture is now hyper powered with technology that it's never seen before china is doing a good job of mastering it or at least riding the
01:23:30.000Riding the Fenris Wolf, you know, and not having it eat him.
01:23:34.000Boy, that's that's probably my dorkiest reference for the evening.
01:23:38.000I think a lot about deepfakes because we're coming up on neural net and deepfakes and like when we see a deepfake video of a guy getting his head cut off by a deepfake ISIS guy and a deepfake American and we think it's real and it might be a real fake person's face on and then the country goes to war because of some deepfaked False flag.
01:25:21.000Somebody posted a video just this week where it was from Canada and it was a woman saying that ISIS are brothers.
01:25:32.000And I raise question because it didn't lip-sync out.
01:25:36.000And I still don't know, I haven't seen it where it becomes proof that it was phony, so maybe it's legit, but it didn't look, if you watch the video, very clearly she's enunciating every syllable correctly and she gets to brothers and there's like a little blip and then it doesn't look right and i'm thinking is this phony so i mean i i even tweeted people and i saw several people raising the question
01:26:11.000Well, yeah, I mean, imagine what Iran or Russia could do.
01:26:14.000Putting out a video of Biden, and it's just like deep faked in audio, and it's Biden saying something.
01:26:21.000And they wouldn't make it crazy, like him saying something, like Rachel Slurry would be him saying something like, Yeah, well, what was I supposed to do about these Marines anyway?
01:26:30.000Or, or, you know, literally saying, F them.
01:26:32.000Yeah, just, you know, from, from a little, oh, here's a, here's a tape because, but the deep states, you can't just do that because it's, it's too, people be like, F them.
01:26:40.000Like, there's no way Biden would say that.
01:27:45.000Like, when you read your comments, and you have like 10 comments where they're like, you're ugly, you're fat, you're a loser, it's one guy doing it.
01:27:50.000It's God speaking to you through whatever.
01:27:53.000What's funny is when you delete the one, and another one just picks up right where the one left off.
01:27:58.000Like, of course, it's the same person.
01:28:15.000So when Tennessee went to constitutional carry for guns, God bless them, I saw some people responding to the governor saying oh thank you very much this is you know this is great we want next thing the parade of the accounts and you could tell some people who were on there didn't get what was happening and that's truly unsophisticated i mean that's that's you know garbage entry-level you know uh political maneuvering
01:28:45.000The Democrats have a couple bot armies or sock account armies.
01:29:00.000But we've now discovered the Taliban is so sophisticated that even the media are speculating that they've hired a PR firm.
01:29:10.000So this affects our politics every single day and it's designed from foreign governments and even people in our country to pit us against one another.
01:29:25.000If you haven't already, smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, and check out the Cast Castle because we have started ramping up production.
01:29:33.000We're getting almost daily vlogs out right now.
01:29:36.000And if you want to see the inner workings of what's happening here at the studio, it's a whole lot of just, I don't know, people are skating.
01:29:43.000You got a really cool, cool facility here.
01:29:46.000And we started this show, the Cask Castle Vlog, earlier this year, and now we've ramped up production, so we're getting to the groove, figuring things out.
01:29:53.000The other day I went down into the green room where we invite our guests, and it was full of smoke from the smoke machine, and our guest Daniel Turner is sitting there in a shroud of fog, and I'm like, what are these people doing in my house?
01:30:06.000And they're so cool, and I'm like, guys, and they're like, oh.
01:31:14.000If people aren't going to be sending loving messages to Luke every day to let him know, I mean, why would he come back?
01:31:20.000And the new studio is around the corner, so we're going to have it much easier to accommodate more people, and that's going to be a whole lot of fun.
01:31:27.000We just ordered a whole bunch of these LED light bars, so the whole top of the room is going to be lined by these LED bars, and then there's going to be a halo above the table, so lighting will be perfectly balanced.
01:31:38.000I'm surprised you didn't go for the circular table, though.
01:31:41.000Yeah, to do the whole Knights of the Round Table thing.
01:32:12.000You could steal the animatronic Joe Biden because it really looks exactly like Joe Biden and talks exactly like Joe Biden because he's animatronic.
01:33:37.000Austin Schaefer with a very intelligent point that I didn't even consider.
01:33:42.000Tim, one thing I assume you mean we have to possibly be ready for, a forced vaccine coming from insurance companies for health insurance easily could be rejected on rates raised for health or life insurance if you do not have the vaccine.
01:34:11.000So it's the question of, if we're going to be paying you to take care of your medical ailments, like we as a community, but you aren't taking care of yourself, why should we pay for it?
01:34:24.000Well, so then where do you draw the line?
01:35:07.000Are you treating, you know, people who don't take care of themselves in any other way?
01:35:14.000That was my observation, too, but I would make it the more analogous comparison between something like an STD, which you can spread to other people.
01:35:28.000Well, then, you know, the very people who said you've got to be compassionate now want to say, oh, you know, I want to destroy you, want to destroy your life.
01:35:36.000You know, I don't like the idea of forcing people to do something.
01:35:51.000And when you get the vaccine, you know, the facility that he's in, a lot of people died from COVID.
01:35:56.000My father actually had COVID and somehow beat it, even at 92.
01:36:00.000But when you've got the vaccine, I can get in to see him.
01:36:05.000And so, you know, That's a risk I'll take any day.
01:36:09.000Do you mean based on regulations or do you mean based on safety?
01:36:12.000Based on safety at that facility because they had so many problems.
01:36:16.000All the facilities have had to rein things in because there's been so many seniors who were killed.
01:36:20.000You get one COVID case in a facility, you know, these are the people who've got comorbidities and they're old and they're the most likely to have the problem.
01:36:28.000And that's where, you know, Cuomo killed all those people.
01:36:56.000Well, I mean, forcing you to choose your own health care is like, you better pick what you want to do or else... No, you better pick what we want you to do.
01:37:02.000That's what the left does all the time.
01:37:04.000Oh, what's the family that's got all the kids?
01:37:47.000Yeah, they want you to vote when you vote for their guy.
01:37:51.000It's one of the things that's gone viral repeatedly is the Seinfeld episode where Kramer goes and does the AIDS mock and he doesn't want to wear the button.
01:38:05.000Doesn't want to wear the AIDS flag and they beat him up.
01:38:37.000The more there's a good chunk of the population that says, well, then that's, of course, not the thing I want to do.
01:38:42.000Especially against resistance that's already formed.
01:38:45.000If there was no resistance and it was an obvious problem, most people I think could get down with self-mandation.
01:38:52.000I bring this up, if people were falling down on the street, stumbling over and bleeding out of their face from this thing, I would not have a problem with the government being like, look, we're not going to take a 60% of our population die to this thing.
01:39:04.000Well, I mean, that was smallpox back in the day.
01:39:06.000Smallpox had a really, really high death rate.
01:39:19.000We got a couple people saying that we're being censored.
01:39:21.000Coldylocks Production says, your stream no longer shows up on my front page recommendations, and it now continues to freeze when I have full bars of cellular data.
01:40:14.000We want to put resources into doing things that are fun and exciting and inspirational and positive, you know, and we want people to respect freedom and individuality, so.
01:40:24.000I was gonna say, I got the leap on this because I've followed you for 10 years.
01:40:28.000Because I go all the way back to Occupy days.
01:41:57.000X asks, so, did you sue the fact checkers on Facebook?
01:42:00.000So, when, for me, in my case, I didn't actually post the thing that was checked.
01:42:06.000And so, the challenge is, it was someone screenshotting a tweet of mine, but it wasn't content that was of mine, it wasn't negatively impacting a page, so there's no damages.
01:44:07.000My niece has chickens and they noticed a couple chickens disappeared and then they realized they had a hawk in the neighborhood and then they had to build a roof on their... We have a roof.
01:44:18.000Yeah, the whole area because the chickens were going out and...
01:44:21.000Yeah, we have a roof on one part of it right now.
01:44:53.000And I was like, I wanted the hawk to come back because the birds were like flying into my house windows and stuff like that for a little while.
01:45:52.000Jordan says, Tim, the point Dorsey is making is valid.
01:45:55.000Yes, it's censorship, but at the same time, it can be dangerous for millions of people using social media to organize against the government.
01:46:01.000It is a threat, and he just called it out.
01:46:28.000But there is a huge gap between organizing it's a state and causing an actual insurrection, sort of like, you know, Portland, as opposed to posting stuff about COVID where Twitter disagrees with you.
01:46:44.000That's kind of a significant difference.
01:46:46.000Yeah, I want to upgrade the United States, but sometimes that means twisting aspects of it that I'm afraid that if it gets too much censorship, that we won't even be able to discuss the things that we need to fix.
01:46:57.000Well, that's one billion percent the point.
01:47:00.000If we can't even talk about the problems, if we can't even... The whole definition of the scientific freaking method is you come up with something and then other people get to challenge it in the normal society.
01:47:13.000Otherwise, what you've got is the Vatican from Copernicus's day.
01:47:36.000Oh, well, you guys are not, you know, focusing on the science.
01:47:40.000Washington Post last year devoted, by our calculation, 45 full, the equivalent of 45 full pages to, drumroll please, Astrology!
01:47:52.000Okay, so the science-y people are devoting the equivalent size of an entire daily newspaper, big daily newspaper in the nation's capital, to astrology, which is bogus, and then turning around and calling people out for daring to disagree with Fauci and such.
01:48:36.000Horace Seymour also mentioning Marine Lieutenant Colonel Stu Scheller, who was relieved of command in Afghanistan for speaking out about the Pentagon lack of planning.
01:48:51.000Stephen says, I wouldn't be surprised if the Taliban sold the list of Americans Biden gave to them and ISIS got to the checkpoint with one of the names.
01:49:45.000Boy, that's just not the wording I would have used if I was Disney.
01:49:48.000The mass resignation, the great resignation they're calling it, it's going to be absolutely exacerbated by the police now in Chicago are saying, if you push this mandate, we're not going to show up for work.
01:50:51.000You're right to bring it up, but what this means is, when we are like, the unemployment rate is currently at 8%, they're not including people who have given up.
01:51:18.000You reminded me why I like where I work because we do not have a vaccine mandate.
01:51:22.000And you know, and I can say, you know, I want everyone to understand this.
01:51:28.000If you as a business require people to get the vaccine, your employees, you are legally responsible for any adverse reaction.
01:51:36.000Now, I personally think the vaccine is safe, but I don't think people should be being mandated And there's, I've mentioned this before, there's like a scaling issue with trying to be more libertarian, like respecting a small business and what their choices are if it's an individual, but it's difficult when you scale up.
01:51:49.000The point is, if you work for a company, you know, I'll tell people a few things to ease your mind.
01:51:54.000Simply draft out a letter saying that, you know, ask your employer, if they mandate it, say, just, you know, sign this and I'll gladly go to the doctor.
01:52:02.000And make them sign a document saying we will claim full responsibility for all, you know, medical issues that arise following this, you know, treatment or whatever.
01:54:21.000Endless war on police nationwide meant that police departments are struggling to find people because who wants to go in an era where you know the politicians won't back you and you can't police?
01:54:34.000I know in my own county they had nine graduates from the last police academy class, the smallest in history.
01:55:34.000Rosa Kaur, please look into her videos.
01:55:36.000She conducted presentations about 10 years ago, and what she discusses is coming to fruition over time and exponentially, oh, I'm sorry, exponentially increasing in velocity.
01:57:00.000And since I'm privy to this, I'm not going to say I'm not part of the usual propaganda of why you should watch, but I can just say he's right.
01:57:08.000It really will break the freaking Internet.
01:57:27.000So, you know, that's kind of the goal moving forward.
01:57:29.000Just to like expand and it's kind of like to bring people together from different areas.
01:57:33.000So we really want to do like a crypto expert with, you know, someone who's overtly culture war and like to see where they come together with their ideas and like what they can, what they're concerned about.
01:57:43.000But, uh, we're hoping to have, uh, Alex back very, very soon with a really fun guest.
01:57:48.000I don't want to say anything, like, obviously we're talking about Alex Jones.
01:57:52.000I don't want to say anything definitive yet because we don't have a date and we're trying to figure out, you know, if we can schedule these people properly.
01:58:43.000So just having censors in place is like...
01:58:46.000Yeah, having people who have the power to shut down your thought.
01:58:50.000You might like the Minds setup right now.
01:58:52.000It's a jury system where if something gets reported for violating terms, it goes to a random selection of users that have to vote if they think it was a violation.
01:59:00.000And then if it is agreed upon by the jury, then it's sent.
01:59:04.000Yes, that's better than what they set up for Facebook is basically you have the mob and you get enough mob people just click, click, click.
01:59:33.000Sonny James says, Tim, I'm finding it real hard to be positive, especially seeing the quarantine facilities go up in Australia.
01:59:38.000Any examples of history where the people fought back and won against a minority of totalitarians without other countries' aid who had skin in the game?
02:00:08.000It's one of the big jerks on Twitter is George Takai, who Grew up in one of the camps built and put there by FDR, a Democrat, and he spends all his time bashing Republicans.
02:01:57.000All right, Struggling on YouTube says, inside info that CA Hospital is mandating the vaccine, it informed employees that if they are COVID positive but asymptomatic to go ahead and come into work.
02:02:10.000BTK says, when Millie meets evacuated troops who had to leave the others behind, and the families of the dead, they'll teach him all colors of rage.
02:02:38.000We just kind of dropped the ball on that one.
02:02:40.000I think, you know, what happened is that we were gonna, like, we were always planning on getting on the website, but then I immediately shifted focus to rebook them, do the show again, and then, like, a week later, we just did the show again.
02:02:50.000Because I was like, ain't nobody gonna bring us down.
