America First - Nicholas J. Fuentes - DeSantis Declares WAR On Big Tech | America First Ep. 753

00:00:08.000 Good evening, everybody.

00:00:09.000 You are watching America First.

00:00:11.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.

00:00:13.000 We have a great show for you tonight.

00:00:15.000 Very excited to be back here on the show tonight on Tuesday.

00:00:20.000 We've got a lot to talk about, lots to get into tonight.

00:00:24.000 It's going to be a big show, very exciting, very white pilling, and very high quality.

00:00:31.000 Our featured story tonight is about Ron DeSantis, who is proposing anti big tech legislation in Florida today in a press conference.

00:00:41.000 It's good stuff, very encouraging news.

00:00:45.000 That'll be our main story.

00:00:46.000 We'll also be talking tonight about the anti COVID lockdown protests in Europe, which we were going to cover yesterday, but we ran out of time because I went off way too much about GameStop and all of that and the Netflix movie.

00:01:03.000 So we're going to be talking about that tonight.

00:01:05.000 Major, major anti lockdown protests in the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland.

00:01:13.000 All over.

00:01:14.000 So we'll cover that too.

00:01:16.000 And it should be a very good show.

00:01:18.000 Welcome back.

00:01:49.000 Okay?

00:01:51.000 We're going to try and shorten it up.

00:01:52.000 Somebody complained last night.

00:01:54.000 I don't know how many of you were watching last night, but somebody complained during the super chats last night.

00:01:59.000 They said, Can we not spend the first five minutes of the show shilling your telegram?

00:02:05.000 Yeah.

00:02:05.000 Well, maybe much less than you like to hear it.

00:02:09.000 I don't like to say it, but it's just part of the thing.

00:02:12.000 It's just part of what we have to do.

00:02:14.000 So I'm just going to try and shorten it up a little bit.

00:02:17.000 You know the drill.

00:02:18.000 Follow me on Telegram.

00:02:20.000 Give me your email.

00:02:21.000 Follow me on Gab.

00:02:23.000 You know how it works.

00:02:25.000 But we're going to dive right in.

00:02:27.000 Before we get into the news today, you know, it's kind of tough because there's so much going on.

00:02:32.000 There's a lot that I want to talk about.

00:02:33.000 And I guess we'll have to get into some of this stuff tomorrow.

00:02:37.000 I want to talk about Alexei Navalny.

00:02:40.000 I want to talk about what's happening in Myanmar.

00:02:43.000 I want to talk about a lot that's going on.

00:02:45.000 But I committed to talking about the anti lockdown tonight.

00:02:49.000 And the Ron DeSantis thing is really interesting as well.

00:02:54.000 So, I guess I'll just save all that for tomorrow. 0.73

00:02:56.000 I guess I'll save Myanmar and Navalny for tomorrow or the next day. 0.75

00:03:00.000 But just real briefly, I just want to say this.

00:03:03.000 I don't want to spoil it too much because I want to save it.

00:03:06.000 You know, we got to stretch the content out because some days are very slow.

00:03:11.000 So, I don't like to blow all the stories in one day.

00:03:15.000 It's actually nice when you have a lot of stories because then you could stretch them out over the week.

00:03:19.000 But I just want to say this one thing because it's crazy.

00:03:24.000 I don't know how many of you saw this, but today Alexei Navalny was sentenced to three and a half years in prison in Russia.

00:03:32.000 And if you don't know, Alexei Navalny is this political dissident in Russia.

00:03:36.000 It's totally fake, totally astroturfed.

00:03:39.000 You have all these freedom fighters in these anti American countries like Venezuela and Iran and Russia and China, and they're all spooks, okay?

00:03:50.000 They're all totally astroturfed by the CIA, they're all from the American regime, they're from NATO.

00:03:58.000 It's not real.

00:03:59.000 This Alexei Navalny guy's not a freedom fighter.

00:04:01.000 He's probably on the payroll of the US government or the UK or whatever.

00:04:05.000 Anyway, so that's what you need to know.

00:04:08.000 He's this well known political dissident, but it's totally fake.

00:04:11.000 And they're throwing him in jail for three and a half years.

00:04:14.000 And I saw this video on Twitter. 0.96

00:04:16.000 It's so ridiculous. 0.90

00:04:18.000 Maybe you saw it too. 0.93

00:04:20.000 But as they're sentencing this guy to jail time, he's behind this glass wall where they're imprisoning him while they're doing the sentencing.

00:04:30.000 And his wife is on the other side watching this.

00:04:36.000 He makes a heart sign on the glass.

00:04:38.000 He's behind like a glass wall where they're containing him.

00:04:44.000 And on camera, of course, for all the news agencies of the world.

00:04:49.000 And he does a heart sign on the glass for his wife.

00:04:54.000 Aww.

00:04:55.000 This is supposed to tug at our heartstrings an act of defiance and supportive love against the Russian regime.

00:05:05.000 And I'm watching this while.

00:05:08.000 Everybody who is at the Capitol on January 6th is getting, you know, they're getting their houses raided, they're getting arrested, they're talking about sedition charges, which carries a sentence of 20 years.

00:05:21.000 And people are getting surveilled and audited, and there's informants everywhere.

00:05:27.000 And basically, the American regime is coming down so hard on Trump supporters and political dissenters in this country, which I am familiar with, and all my friends like Baked Alaska and others are familiar with, and maybe a lot of you are familiar with.

00:05:43.000 We are being crushed under the boot of the intelligence community, of NATO and the Biden administration, and all this stuff.

00:05:54.000 And then you go on Twitter.com where they just banned the president three weeks ago and they're taking out all the QAnon people and all the Trump supporters.

00:06:04.000 You go on Twitter.com and everybody's crying and everybody's so upset about a political dissident in Russia being sentenced to jail time.

00:06:16.000 And I'm like, really?

00:06:17.000 And I put out a tweet about this just before I went live on the show.

00:06:23.000 The American regime, the American media, and the State Department, and the Biden administration, and all these proxies on social media are going to cry bloody murder over people like Alexei Navalny and other political dissidents in the backwards countries like Venezuela, Russia, China, or Belarus, or Iran, or whatever.

00:06:47.000 And then they're going to turn around and persecute political dissidents at home to an extent way greater than in any of the countries that I just described, right?

00:06:57.000 You know, they're going to get on Twitter and, oh, Alexei Navalny, what a brave freedom fighter. 0.54

00:07:03.000 Yeah, but bring sedition charges against those boomers at the Trump rally on the 6th. 0.78

00:07:09.000 Yeah, yeah, bring sedition charges. 0.71

00:07:11.000 Throw them in jail forever. 1.00

00:07:12.000 Execute them. 1.00

00:07:13.000 They're treasonous. 1.00

00:07:15.000 And censure any congressperson that supports it.

00:07:18.000 And Trump should be in jail too.

00:07:21.000 Yeah, but then let's all cry about Alexei Navalny, who's a CIA plant, right?

00:07:25.000 So, anyway, I'm going to save that for tomorrow.

00:07:28.000 Hey, forget I just said all that because we're going to talk about that tomorrow.

00:07:32.000 That's going to be the show tomorrow.

00:07:34.000 But I just had to get out of my system because I see it.

00:07:38.000 And it's like, how do people not see the hypocrisy?

00:07:42.000 How do people not see the double standard?

00:07:44.000 The double standard is that the American regime wants to project moral authority to the world.

00:07:52.000 And the basis of this moral authority is that we are the open society and they're not.

00:07:58.000 That's the basis of our claim to moral authority.

00:08:02.000 America is a democracy.

00:08:04.000 America is a free market economy.

00:08:08.000 America is an open society where we have a free press and freedom of speech and civil liberties and all of this.

00:08:15.000 And that means that we get to wag our finger in everybody's face and we get to say, we get to condemn the military coup in Myanmar and we can condemn the fake elections in Belarus and we can condemn the sentencing of Alexei Navalny because we are a free and open society.

00:08:34.000 And you're a backwards, repressive, totalitarian country.

00:08:39.000 China and Russia and, right, all these other regimes. 0.74

00:08:43.000 And I'm simply telling you that that is obviously, obviously a farce.

00:08:50.000 The foundation of that moral authority doesn't exist anymore because we're not an open society.

00:08:55.000 We're not a free society.

00:08:57.000 We're not a moral society.

00:08:59.000 There is no basis for American moral authority in the world from our State Department, from our elected officials.

00:09:07.000 From anybody. 0.95

00:09:08.000 I mean, this country's a dump. 1.00

00:09:10.000 We go into other countries and we hoist up the flag of BLM and gay rights, right? 0.97

00:09:16.000 In our American embassies, and we're projecting moral authority?

00:09:20.000 Please.

00:09:21.000 We're going into these countries and putting them on blast because they don't have an open internet in China or Iran when we have Google and Facebook.

00:09:31.000 We're going to go into Belarus and Russia and complain about political prisoners while we're torturing Julian Assange?

00:09:37.000 And Edward Snowden has political asylum in Russia?

00:09:41.000 Please.

00:09:42.000 You know, it's a big joke.

00:09:44.000 Anyway, that's the show that I'm doing tomorrow.

00:09:48.000 I can't control myself.

00:09:52.000 I can't control myself.

00:09:54.000 I'm supposed to do that show tomorrow.

00:09:56.000 No, that show's.

00:09:57.000 So, hey, so forget all of that.

00:09:59.000 We're going to talk way more about that tomorrow.

00:10:02.000 It's a little taste, okay?

00:10:03.000 That's a little sample.

00:10:05.000 Come back tomorrow, same time, same place, and we'll do that one tomorrow.

00:10:12.000 I can't help it.

00:10:13.000 Yesterday, the show is supposed to be about these things, and I go off about GameStop for an hour.

00:10:18.000 Tonight, I'm supposed to talk about the stuff I was supposed to talk about yesterday, and I'm going off about Navalny.

00:10:24.000 Okay, so we'll do that tomorrow, but I want to get into our news tonight.

00:10:28.000 I just had to get that out of my system because I'm like raging over here.

00:10:33.000 But we'll talk about that tomorrow.

00:10:34.000 So tonight, I want to talk about these anti lockdown protests in Europe and kind of tie it in with what we talked about yesterday, which is the GameStop stock market thing.

00:10:46.000 You know, that's basically dead.

00:10:48.000 I sold my stocks today.

00:10:51.000 I still have diamond hands, but I released my stocks with my diamond hands.

00:10:56.000 Okay, I've got really diamond like hands, but I'm releasing my stocks with my diamond hands because it's over.

00:11:04.000 The rally is over.

00:11:06.000 Robinhood and all the other online brokerages killed the momentum from this Wall Street bets insurgency on Wall Street.

00:11:15.000 And that's because.

00:11:17.000 Robinhood and these other brokerages, when they restricted the buying of GameStop and AMC and Bed Bath Beyond and Blackberry and Nokia and others, they obviously destroyed the momentum.

00:11:33.000 They brought the price down.

00:11:35.000 And I'm sure that, you know, not only did they bring the price down, which is bad enough, they bring the price down and then people panic sell and obviously they can't buy and then they forget about it by the time the trading is now unrestricted.

00:11:48.000 But what's more is.

00:11:51.000 Last week, they kill the price and they kill the momentum, and then all the shorts settle their positions.

00:11:59.000 So, the whole basis for pumping up GameStop and AMC and all those stocks was that the shorts would be forced to buy at a very inflated price.

00:12:09.000 Well, not only do you kill the momentum when you restrict the trading because people obviously can't buy and drive the price up, but then people panic sell, so the momentum's gone, the price goes down, it's this like spiral effect.

00:12:22.000 But what's more is now that the price plummets, all the shorts settle.

00:12:26.000 So when they open the trading back up, there's no momentum and there's no shorts to squeeze.

00:12:32.000 So the price is not going.

00:12:35.000 I'm not an expert and I'm not giving you financial advice, but I'm looking at it yesterday and I'm looking at it today.

00:12:41.000 And AMC is down to like $7.

00:12:44.000 And Bed Bath Beyond is down to $25.

00:12:46.000 And GameStop is down below $100.

00:12:48.000 And I'm like, yeah, it's not coming back.

00:12:51.000 So anyway.

00:12:53.000 But we're tying that into what's happening in Europe, and I'll read you the report.

00:12:57.000 I postulated yesterday, you could go, well, I think it's on BitChute or YouTube or something, but if you caught the show yesterday, I went into my theory about how the Wall Street bets phenomenon was basically a distraction from the lockdown.

00:13:13.000 And I made my whole case yesterday, but just to refresh you, it's simple.

00:13:18.000 The economy has been destroyed in the past year.

00:13:23.000 Has a lot of systemic problems, even when things are good and when things are bad.

00:13:28.000 Systemic problems like high cost of living, housing costs a lot.

00:13:34.000 Obviously, people have a lot of debt.

00:13:36.000 I mean, there are a lot of systemic problems that transcend the usual metrics like the unemployment rate or the GDP growth, things like that.

00:13:45.000 But the Trump economy, which was so good last year, and at least people were making money and they had jobs, it was a good job market, all of that.

00:13:53.000 At least things were kind of going in the right direction.

00:13:56.000 That was destroyed by the COVID lockdown.

00:13:59.000 And that's why the economy is really bad right now.

00:14:02.000 That's why people are underemployed.

00:14:04.000 That's why they're unemployed.

00:14:05.000 That's why businesses are closing.

00:14:07.000 And I think that there was a lot of economic resentment right now, a lot of economic frustration because of that.

00:14:15.000 And basically, Wall Street Bets and this GameStop thing is siphoning that energy in a basically fruitless direction.

00:14:23.000 It's taking all of this real rage, which is totally legitimate, you know, it's totally righteous, and it's being directed at buying stocks.

00:14:33.000 You know, you're mad about the economy.

00:14:36.000 You're mad because you're uncomfortable and you're out of a job or your hours were cut or your benefits were cut or you're going broke or whatever.

00:14:44.000 Well, you know what you could do to stick it to the man?

00:14:47.000 Sign up for Robinhood and buy stocks.

00:14:49.000 You know, like to me, that's in some ways people say, well, that's good because hedge funds are losing money, but it's.

00:14:57.000 Compared to what is possible with that resentment, it's really not the optimal thing to do.

00:15:03.000 What people should be doing is directing that animosity towards the government and towards the people that are in favor of the COVID lockdown because that is the source of the economic pain for the past year.

00:15:16.000 And to me, the counterexample is what's happening in Europe.

00:15:19.000 This is how that fits in.

00:15:20.000 We didn't get to this yesterday, but in America, people are expressing their rage about the economy by buying stocks on Robinhood.

00:15:31.000 In Europe, they're expressing their economic resentment and frustration by going in the streets and causing civil disorder.

00:15:39.000 And I'll read you this report.

00:15:40.000 This is from The Guardian about what's going on over there.

00:15:43.000 It says, Police have dispersed or detained hundreds of protesters against COVID lockdowns in Hungary, Austria, and Belgium as continuing quarantine regimes across Europe chafed against the economic and social toll of nearly a year of restrictions on businesses, travel, and community life.

00:16:02.000 Police in Brussels said on Sunday that they had arrested scores of people in an attempt to prevent two banned demonstrations against measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus.

00:16:14.000 A.

00:16:15.000 This is a statement from the police in Belgium.

00:16:18.000 They say we are above 200 arrested at the moment.

00:16:22.000 Belgium's neighbor, the Netherlands, was rocked by anti curfew riots last week, but protesters took a different tack on Sunday under the rallying call of drinking coffee together.

00:16:33.000 Around 400 people dispersed peacefully in the central Dutch city after gathering for an authorized demonstration at a community center.

00:16:42.000 In Amsterdam, a heavy police presence thwarted a mainly peaceful but unauthorized demonstration.

00:16:48.000 Around 5,000 people defied a ban to march in Vienna in protest against a curfew and lockdown.

00:16:55.000 The march was organized by the far right FPOE party, and many participants ignored government regulations on mask wearing and the need to keep minimum distances from each other.

00:17:06.000 Police also dispersed protesters at a Sunday demonstration in Budapest, where workers in the country's struggling hospitality sector demanded civil disobedience and a rethinking of lockdown restrictions.

00:17:19.000 Organizers of the demonstration at a central square in Hungary's capital called for restaurateurs to break pandemic rules by opening their businesses to customers on Monday in defiance of strict pandemic measures, limiting restaurants and cafes to takeout service.

00:17:35.000 So, this is not something that is a purely right wing phenomenon.

00:17:39.000 It's not contained to one country.

00:17:41.000 This is happening throughout Europe, and it seems to be happening throughout the world because there were even comparable demonstrations happening in Canada recently as well.

00:17:52.000 And so I look around the world at Canada, which is far more liberal.

00:17:56.000 I look at the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Hungary, Poland, Italy.

00:18:01.000 They're having major anti lockdown demonstrations, in some cases, riots.

00:18:06.000 And in a lot of these countries, it's the full spectrum everything from civil disobedience, authorized demonstrations with the proper permits, all the way through to totally unauthorized riots that are violent and like pushing the government to the brink of collapse.

00:18:22.000 And it's happening across the world.

00:18:25.000 And it's not happening in America.

00:18:27.000 And, you know, obviously this is a bad time.

00:18:30.000 I'm not encouraging people to do demonstrations right now or do riots because we saw what just happened with the Capitol.

00:18:37.000 Clearly, we live in like Russia now, we live in China.

00:18:42.000 And certain demonstrations can be as violent and insurrectionist as possible, like BLM and Antifa.

00:18:51.000 I mean, they could literally do an autonomous zone.

00:18:54.000 That's not an insurrection.

00:18:56.000 You know, forming your own country in the middle of a city and saying that the government's authority doesn't apply.

00:19:02.000 I mean, that's not an insurrection.

00:19:04.000 I mean, you could go off to that extent, and as long as you're left wing, as we know, nothing happens to you.

00:19:11.000 But if you're right wing and you don't wear a mask on an airplane, well, you're an insurrectionist, right?

00:19:17.000 Now you're like a terrorist.

00:19:19.000 You're on a no fly list, and the government's watching you now.

00:19:23.000 So I'm not encouraging people in America to do that.

00:19:27.000 Because of recent, very recent developments.

00:19:29.000 But I think it is something to think about that, like I said the other day, in all these other countries, the economy is terrible.

00:19:39.000 Life has been totally upended by all of this.

00:19:42.000 Not just the economy.

00:19:44.000 Don't get me wrong.

00:19:45.000 You know, I keep stressing the economy, but it's much more than that, too.

00:19:49.000 In some ways, the social disruption is far worse and far more catastrophic.

00:19:54.000 We did a story about this last week about the surge in teen and even preteen suicides.

00:20:03.000 Because of the school lockdowns, you've got all these kids that they don't go to school, they don't have extracurriculars, they can't go to recreational events, sporting events, and they're killing themselves because the quality of life is so bad, being kept inside all day on TikTok and on Zoom and whatever.

00:20:22.000 So, in a lot of ways, the social disruption and the despair and misery that that's brought on is far more disruptive and calamitous and catastrophic than even the economic disruption.

00:20:36.000 Nevertheless, How are people responding to it?

00:20:39.000 In Europe, they're rioting.

00:20:41.000 In Europe and Canada, they're going outside their houses and they're demanding a return to normal life, which is to me, honestly, kind of surprising.

00:20:50.000 Because the narrative for a long time, about like since 2016, since the Trump election and Brexit and some of these other events, was that the populist energy is really taking over in America, maybe has the best chance at succeeding in America.

00:21:08.000 But then I look at Europe, and that's where they're protesting the lockdowns.

00:21:12.000 That's where they're considering restrictions on social media companies.

00:21:16.000 You know, it seems like maybe that's where it's happening.

00:21:19.000 And in America, we're like buying stocks.

00:21:21.000 It's food for thought.

00:21:23.000 And what's really important, I think maybe the most important takeaway is this this lockdown is never going to end.

00:21:31.000 There is no natural conclusion to the lockdown.

00:21:36.000 Now, that doesn't mean that it's not possible for the lockdown to end, but it means that.

00:21:42.000 On this current trajectory, it won't end by itself.

00:21:45.000 People think, and I think largely people in America are under the impression, which is wrong, that if we just grin and bear it, if we just wait it out, well, we'll wait for it to resolve itself.

00:21:58.000 The government will lift the restrictions and then we'll go back to our normal lives.

00:22:02.000 And that is what is keeping a lid on everything this wrong and incorrect expectation or presumption that if we just wait, the government will lift it in like a reasonable amount of time.

00:22:15.000 People think like, Well, how much longer can this go on?

00:22:18.000 Another year?

00:22:19.000 You know, we could wait another year.

00:22:21.000 We could do another year.

00:22:23.000 That's easier than protesting.

00:22:25.000 And like I said, that's a wrong assumption.

00:22:28.000 The lockdown, unless it is ended by the people, will never be ended by the bureaucrats.

00:22:34.000 And that's because the lockdown benefits the people that are continuing the lockdown.

00:22:39.000 And why would the people that are benefiting from the lockdown, who are perpetrating the lockdown, end the lockdown?

00:22:47.000 It makes no sense.

00:22:49.000 I mean, as long as they're in control of the lockdown, as long as the lockdown persists, they are in control of all economic and social activity in America.

00:22:59.000 As long as the lockdown persists, they have unprecedented power against Americans, unprecedented power to abridge civil liberties, to investigate, to use and weaponize the surveillance state.

00:23:12.000 Biden, in his COVID executive orders last week, imposed criminal penalties on people that don't wear masks on interstate transportation.

00:23:22.000 That's the kind of authority that's opened up now.

00:23:24.000 They can track you using Bluetooth on your phone, and you can't turn it off because it's built into the operating system on all Android and Apple phones now with Bluetooth.

00:23:35.000 Now, they could already track you in other ways, but this is far more pervasive.

00:23:40.000 It's far easier for law enforcement to access, and this was done under the guise of contact tracing for COVID.

00:23:49.000 These are just a couple of examples of the unprecedented expansion of government authority because of COVID.

00:23:56.000 The point being is, they're not going to give that up.

00:23:59.000 They have no reason to.

00:24:00.000 In fact, they have every incentive to not end this in a timely fashion or really ever at all.

00:24:06.000 The masks, contact tracing, testing, social distancing, lockdown, it will never end by itself.

00:24:14.000 And the countries where they're going to get out in the streets, the countries where they're going to open their businesses and dare the government to shut them down and mask, those are the countries where the lockdown will end.

00:24:26.000 Those are the countries where the lockdown will be expedited and it will be enforced in a reasonable way.

00:24:32.000 The countries that don't do that are just going to get screwed.

00:24:36.000 And unfortunately, the government is in a position to maintain this forever.

00:24:42.000 We are not.

00:24:44.000 What I mean by this is look at some of the resistance efforts in Europe.

00:24:51.000 What they proposed, for example, in Budapest is that restaurants and cafes open in spite of the government lockdown.

00:24:59.000 Well, in order for restaurants and cafes to open against the wishes of the government, they have to be in business.

00:25:07.000 They have to be able to pay staff to open, they have to be able to pay for supplies and all of that.

00:25:13.000 Well, a lot of businesses in America, their days are numbered.

00:25:16.000 They're going out of business every day.

00:25:18.000 So, as far as our ability to even mount a resistance against the government, the clock is ticking because pretty soon the only businesses that will remain solvent are the ones that are dependent on the government.

00:25:32.000 The ones that are dependent on government aid, the ones that are dependent on the government giving them the green light.

00:25:37.000 And maybe the government will string them along just long enough with 25% occupancy restrictions and social distancing and limiting four or six people to a table at a restaurant or things like that.

00:25:50.000 But these businesses are going to lose the ability to resist because they're losing their independence.

00:25:55.000 And the same goes for all of us.

00:25:57.000 You and I, and the businesses, and every other private entity.

00:26:02.000 We are losing our independence, we're losing our economic power, and therefore we are losing our ability to resist the government's mandates.

00:26:10.000 You know, maybe this is by design, but that is just a very convenient side effect of all of this for the people that are perpetrating the lockdown.

00:26:20.000 So it's something to think about.

00:26:22.000 I would never expect that the anti lockdown revolution would start in the Netherlands of all places, because I think of the Netherlands as socially liberal, like the epitome of.

00:26:33.000 Yuppified, castrated Europe.

00:26:35.000 And, you know, frankly, I haven't spent much time in Europe. 0.91

00:26:38.000 I don't know much about Europe.

00:26:40.000 So I don't mean to insult people in Europe.

00:26:42.000 But as an American, my perception is that Amsterdam is liberal central.

00:26:49.000 Maybe that's like the United Kingdom now.

00:26:50.000 I don't know.

00:26:51.000 Or Paris or something.

00:26:52.000 Or Berlin.

00:26:53.000 But, you know, I think about Northern Europe. 0.92

00:26:57.000 And I'm thinking, oh, these people are way more cucked than America. 0.84

00:27:00.000 In America, we have guns and we have Trump and all this. 0.92

00:27:04.000 I mean, not anymore, but it's the country that elected Trump.

00:27:07.000 So it's actually a bit of a shock to me that it's going on over there, but I think it's one of these moments where we have to take a look at what's going on there and think seriously about your future under this lockdown.

00:27:21.000 This is something that it is not pie in the sky.

00:27:23.000 I am not talking about something abstract.

00:27:26.000 Usually, when we talk about doom and gloom on the show, people don't think of it with enough urgency because they think, oh, well, that's in the long term, and therefore it's kind of intangible.

00:27:38.000 When I talk about demographic change and whites becoming a minority, for a lot of people, it is really intangible for them to imagine this.

00:27:49.000 It's something that's way off into the future, it's something that they have no experience with.

00:27:54.000 And therefore, it's not making them uncomfortable enough to feel a sense of urgency.

00:28:00.000 But of course, a lockdown is affecting each and every, literally every single one of us, in an extremely intimate and negative way.

00:28:09.000 If you're someone going to school, it's totally destroyed your social life.

00:28:14.000 If you're a college student, it's destroyed your social life.

00:28:18.000 If you're an adult in the workforce, it's probably destroyed your wages.

00:28:22.000 If you're a business owner, it's destroyed your business.

00:28:24.000 I mean, you name it.

00:28:26.000 Every man, woman, and child in this country has been affected in a big way, in a personal way, negatively by the lockdown.

00:28:34.000 We all have skin in the game, and everybody's got to think to themselves can I persist in an indefinite lockdown?

00:28:41.000 No.

00:28:42.000 And what are the costs of resisting versus endless lockdown?

00:28:47.000 People have to start weighing that in their minds.

00:28:49.000 Clearly, that's what they're doing in Europe.

00:28:51.000 And they're thinking to themselves well, look, if we all resist this together, Well, they can't shut down every single business.

00:28:58.000 They can't arrest every person in the Netherlands.

00:29:01.000 They can't arrest every person in Hungary.

00:29:03.000 So, if we all push back, obviously then the social cost is reduced.

00:29:08.000 But what's more is if we all push back, the potential consequences are less severe than the consequences of inaction and indefinite lockdown.

00:29:18.000 People in America got to start thinking like that.

00:29:20.000 Nobody is doing that. 1.00

00:29:22.000 Either people are in favor of the lockdown, in which case you're an idiot, or they're against the lockdown, but. 0.99

00:29:28.000 They don't really want to do anything about it. 1.00

00:29:30.000 They'll go along with it.

00:29:32.000 They'll roll their eyes.

00:29:33.000 They'll get mad, but they basically just go along with it.

00:29:37.000 And it's time for people to start to organize.

00:29:39.000 The only problem is, you know, like China or like Russia, very difficult to organize because what they did from the very beginning of the COVID lockdown was they branded anybody that was against a lockdown or didn't think the virus was severe as spreading misinformation.

00:29:58.000 That was one of the first things they did last year Facebook and Twitter and Google.

00:30:04.000 They all got together and reformed their community guidelines to say if you don't think the virus is severe, or you post content that says that the virus isn't severe, or the death rate isn't what they're saying it is, or the lockdowns are not as efficacious as they say they are, that's misinformation and you're banned.

00:30:24.000 So that makes it a lot more difficult.

00:30:26.000 But nevertheless, we got to figure it out because this is not good.

00:30:31.000 And this is like the populist issue.

00:30:34.000 And, you know, one of the things, too, this is the last thing I'll say, and then we'll move on.

00:30:39.000 The last thing I'll say is this.

00:30:41.000 For the past, I've been doing the show now for nearly four years.

00:30:46.000 Yeah, yeah, I think this week it'll be four years, actually.

00:30:50.000 I've been doing the show for four years, and people have got to keep up with the times.

00:30:57.000 Some people are still talking and acting like it's 2017 or 2016, and they still think immigration is number one.

00:31:04.000 They still think it's like immigration and trade.

00:31:07.000 And like foreign wars.

00:31:09.000 Those are not the big populist issues anymore.

00:31:11.000 That doesn't mean that immigration is not still a big deal.

00:31:14.000 It doesn't mean that trade is not a big deal.

00:31:17.000 But it does mean that as far as the political scene goes and like priorities and urgency goes, those are no longer the most salient populist issues or nationalist America first issues.

00:31:28.000 Clearly, and I've been saying this actually for a long time, but clearly now more than ever, the main issues facing populists are the COVID lockdown and big tech.

00:31:39.000 Without a doubt, without a question, those are the two populist issues of our time.

00:31:46.000 Maybe election fraud is the third.

00:31:48.000 It is COVID lockdown, big tech censorship, and election fraud.

00:31:52.000 If not the most politically important issues, those are the most urgent existential threats to a populist movement and to the American people right now.

00:32:03.000 That's what will decide the midterms.

00:32:05.000 That's what's going to decide 2024.

00:32:07.000 Those are the issues that will animate a populist movement in America in this decade.

00:32:13.000 So it's not to say that we don't care about immigration. 0.91

00:32:16.000 Look, if I became president in 2024, I would ban all immigration on day one.

00:32:21.000 Still, but as far as priority and urgency goes, obviously big tech is more pressing now.

00:32:28.000 You know, you can't have an anti immigration movement if you can't have political movements.

00:32:35.000 You can't have anti immigration policy if the votes don't count and you can't get elected.

00:32:42.000 You can't have anything if you can't make money or organize or talk to each other because the government is order 66, the whole planet with COVID lockdown.

00:32:52.000 So, These are now the three pillars of America First populism.

00:32:58.000 It's a very important thing to set out for people watching and just in general to set the tone now.

00:33:05.000 And it's not like, oh, we're embracing a fad. 0.90

00:33:08.000 It's like, look, the landscape has changed. 0.94

00:33:11.000 The dynamic has changed.

00:33:12.000 I've actually been talking about big tech for a long time.

00:33:15.000 I've been talking about COVID lockdown for a long time, but obviously, COVID is only a year old, and election fraud only happened on November 3rd.

00:33:23.000 If 2016 set the stage for the period from 2016 to 2021, after the Capitol siege or after the November 3rd election, the three issues now are COVID lockdown, big tech censorship, and election fraud.

00:33:40.000 And those are going to be the big three.

00:33:42.000 Those are three populist issues that I think are going to unite a lot of the country.

00:33:48.000 And certainly, these are three practical problems for any kind of resistance in America.

00:33:54.000 And that is actually a nice segue into our featured story, which is the Ron DeSantis speech today.

00:34:00.000 Really good stuff.

00:34:03.000 I don't know how many of you guys caught this.

00:34:05.000 It didn't make the news, probably for obvious reasons, but Ron DeSantis was the governor of Florida, Republican governor of Florida.

00:34:14.000 He did a press conference today and he outlined new state legislation against tech censorship.

00:34:21.000 And it's kind of amazing because, like I said, this is going to be the pillar of.

00:34:27.000 The American right and populism for the next four years at least, and has been, I think, for the past four years, if you're smart.

00:34:35.000 And nobody is really talking seriously about this on the national level.

00:34:41.000 Trump never got serious about this, and nobody in Congress did either.

00:34:46.000 You know, yeah, Hawley came up with a couple of bills, and the bills were terrible, and they went nowhere.

00:34:53.000 So leave it to the governor of a state, right?

00:34:56.000 Leave it to a state official, like, and you know, it's not to say that that's lesser.

00:35:00.000 But this is a national issue.

00:35:02.000 Leave it to the governor of Florida, though, to do something about it.

00:35:05.000 And I'll read you a report about what he's proposing in this legislation.

00:35:09.000 It's very encouraging.

00:35:11.000 For those that don't know, Ron DeSantis is hands down the best governor in America by far, on like every issue.

00:35:18.000 Florida is probably the best state in America as far as COVID lockdown goes.

00:35:24.000 Not only do they not have a mask mandate, but as governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis banned mask mandates in Florida.

00:35:33.000 So, in other words, not only is there no mask mandate in the state of Florida, but municipal governments and like towns and villages and cities cannot impose mask mandates.

00:35:43.000 It's amazing.

00:35:44.000 Now, often in restaurants, you do wind up having to wear a mask, but it's not a city ordinance.

00:35:50.000 It's not a state law, which is very refreshing.

00:35:54.000 Their beaches are open, their restaurants are open, the businesses are open.

00:35:58.000 It's great.

00:36:01.000 He's great on BLM.

00:36:03.000 Last year, when the BLM riots were tearing through America, he passed a law, and I don't know all the specifics of it, but it basically says that if a riot is declared within a certain distance of you, It really is liberal with how you can defend yourself with lethal force.

00:36:21.000 It says something like if a riot is declared within a mile of you, you have really a lot of latitude as far as killing people if you feel threatened.

00:36:32.000 Now, that's not precise, but it's something to that effect.

00:36:35.000 I didn't read it before the show.

00:36:37.000 So it's a really good law that protects people.

00:36:39.000 I remember when I was flying back from Miami after New Year's Eve, I was talking to these black people because we were all on the wait list.

00:36:49.000 Because we all missed our flights, and we were all put on the wait list to get on the next flight to Chicago, and everyone flying back to Chicago who missed their flight was black, except for me.

00:36:59.000 And they were actually talking about that law. 0.98

00:37:01.000 They're like, shit, I'm not trying anything in Florida. 0.99

00:37:04.000 You hear about that law? 1.00

00:37:06.000 And one black guy was saying that he heard a story where somebody tried to steal a guy's car, and the guy that owned the car was chasing him with a gun, and the guy, the would be carjacker, Killed the guy that was pursuing him, and that was legal because he ran away.

00:37:30.000 And the guy that was, you know, the guy who owned the car was pursuing him, and the car burglar was able to stand his ground.

00:37:40.000 And, like, that was a stand your ground law thing, but they were also talking about the riots, and they said, look, self defense is so strong in the state, you shouldn't try anything.

00:37:48.000 And to me, I was like, okay, that's pretty based, you know?

00:37:53.000 It's not based that.

00:37:56.000 That the car burglar got to kill the guy, but it's based that the laws for self defense are so strong.

00:38:01.000 Maybe that's a bad example.

00:38:03.000 So he passed that law.

00:38:05.000 And I feel like he passed a law about sanctuary cities, one of the only states in the country to go after sanctuary cities.

00:38:13.000 He did pass a very cringe law that goes against BDS in public schools, which is really cringe.

00:38:21.000 But outside of that, he's really good on just about every other issue.

00:38:27.000 And this is what he had to say about tech censorship.

00:38:29.000 I'll read you the report about his press conference.

00:38:32.000 It says, Citing discrimination against conservatives, Governor Ron DeSantis and GOP legislative leaders said Tuesday they will back a bill to punish five big tech companies Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, and Twitter that they believe wield too much power over the modern day public square.

00:38:53.000 DeSantis said, As these companies have grown and their influence has expanded, big tech has come to look more like Big Brother with each passing day.

00:39:01.000 But this is 2021, not 1984.

00:39:04.000 And this is real life, not George Orwell's fiction.

00:39:08.000 That's kind of a cringe line.

00:39:09.000 These companies, but it's directionally very good.

00:39:13.000 These companies exert monopoly power over a centrally important forum in the public discourse and the access of information that Floridians rely upon.

00:39:22.000 The move comes after former President Trump, a key ally of the governor, was banned from Twitter and Facebook after the January 6th storming of the U.S. Capitol.

00:39:32.000 DeSantis cited what happened to Trump as one reason for the legislation, but didn't acknowledge Trump's role in the riot.

00:39:38.000 DeSantis Was asked by a reporter if he agreed with Trump's claim that the election was stolen from him, but the governor didn't answer the question.

00:39:46.000 The bill hasn't been filed, but DeSantis said it would require the companies to give users advance notice before removing them from their platform.

00:39:55.000 The companies would be barred from changing the rules and standards of their platforms too often.

00:40:00.000 If the companies violate the new rules, the legislation would allow users to more easily sue the companies, as well as empower the attorney general to seek action against them under the state's deceptive and unfair practices law.

00:40:13.000 In addition, the bill would target big tech's influence on elections.

00:40:17.000 Companies that remove a candidate for office from their platform would receive $100,000 fines each day until the candidate's access is restored.

00:40:27.000 Any promotion of one candidate over another would require disclosure of that under Florida's campaign contribution transparency requirements.

00:40:36.000 The use of algorithms to boost or suppress political content would also be banned.

00:40:41.000 DeSantis said The message is loud and clear when it comes to elections in Florida, big tech should stay out of it.

00:40:47.000 DeSantis has previously said big tech censorship of conservatives was his top legislative priority and cited the shutdown of Parlor as particularly disturbing.

00:40:58.000 Amazon and Apple ended access to the platform, which was shut down for a time after the January 6th storming of the Capitol.

00:41:05.000 DeSantis was flanked by the Lieutenant Governor and legislative leaders, House Speaker Chris Sprouls and Senate President Wilton Simpson, as well as the sponsors of the bill in each chamber, Representative Blaze. Ingoglia and Senator Danny Burgess, an indication of the support the measure will have among Republicans.

00:41:27.000 Sprouls noted the firms have the ability to use mystery algorithms to promote or downplay certain posts and have an enormous influence on the modern day public square.

00:41:37.000 Their influence has become so pervasive, he said, the companies have surpassed the big monopolies of the early 20th century, such as Standard Oil, which were broken up under the federal antitrust laws.

00:41:50.000 Sprouls said, No one elects these companies to pull the strings of American life, yet they act like the five wizards of Oz.

00:41:58.000 Today we begin to pull back the curtain.

00:42:02.000 And, you know, I don't have enough good things to say about this press conference.

00:42:07.000 This is probably the biggest white pill, in my opinion, on big tech censorship of the past five years.

00:42:15.000 Because this is the most serious approach to big tech censorship out of any elected official.

00:42:24.000 Since all this stuff started when Trump started to run for office in 2015.

00:42:29.000 Seriously, it is that big of a deal.

00:42:31.000 And I've seen it all.

00:42:33.000 You know, I've been talking about this for a long time.

00:42:36.000 I know all the people in alternative tech.

00:42:38.000 I know all the people that are pushing legislative and executive actions on this in government.

00:42:45.000 I've talked to them.

00:42:46.000 I've seen a lot of the different proposals.

00:42:48.000 None of them have been very exciting.

00:42:50.000 None of them have had teeth.

00:42:52.000 None of them had any serious chances of succeeding.

00:42:55.000 And I see this, and honestly, I'm not a lawyer.

00:42:58.000 I don't know how far this will go.

00:43:00.000 But all of these provisions, this to me looks and sounds like the most serious attempt to fix this yet.

00:43:08.000 Because it is targeted, you know, there's enforcement mechanisms and empowers the state and the attorney general.

00:43:15.000 It's weaponizing election laws, which is a very creative and brilliant way to go about the problem.

00:43:21.000 Because, of course, private companies, for example, disallowing one candidate to use their platform, but allowing the other candidate or even elevating the other candidate on the platform, that constitutes election interference.

00:43:34.000 That's at the bare minimum an in kind contribution to another candidate.

00:43:39.000 So, to get election officials involved with that, to get consumer protection involved in that, I mean, all the different angles, and there are a series of different attack vectors on this issue in this legislation.

00:43:54.000 It's a lot of creativity.

00:43:56.000 It's a lot of things that I've never seen before, never heard of before.

00:44:01.000 And who knows if this will go to the Supreme Court, if they'll challenge this.

00:44:04.000 It seems like it'll pass in the Florida legislature, but this is a really novel and new approach.

00:44:10.000 It's thorough.

00:44:12.000 It sounds like they brought on a lot of smart people to work on this stuff.

00:44:16.000 And what's really exciting is that DeSantis pushed this.

00:44:20.000 He's got the legislature behind him, he's got the state Republicans behind him, and it's a priority for him.

00:44:26.000 To me, that shows that DeSantis has his finger on the pulse.

00:44:31.000 He gets these problems.

00:44:33.000 And in a lot of ways, DeSantis is not Trump like in the sense that he doesn't have the excitement of Trump, he's not this sort of like dark horse.

00:44:42.000 Black swan, kind of a candidate like Trump is, potentially for president, some have suggested, or just as a political actor.

00:44:51.000 Ron DeSantis is definitely more conventional, but everything that I've seen from him, it's always on the money.

00:44:59.000 It's the right issue.

00:45:00.000 It's the right time.

00:45:01.000 It's the right approach from COVID to BLM to immigration, and now with big tech censorship.

00:45:08.000 Not only does he have this thorough and creative approach, spearheading it and taking leadership when nobody else is.

00:45:14.000 Where is Josh Hawley?

00:45:15.000 Where is Ted Cruz?

00:45:17.000 They're complaining about Marjorie Taylor Greene and Donald Trump, you know?

00:45:21.000 So he's spearheading this, and he says it's a priority for him, and he's only a state official.

00:45:27.000 So I love what I'm hearing from Ron DeSantis.

00:45:30.000 I think this is awesome, and this is where Republicans need to be.

00:45:34.000 This is real leadership, this is real courage.

00:45:37.000 He is the model for what all Republicans, what people, I should say, America firsters, should expect from Republican officials for the next four years.

00:45:47.000 I will not vote for somebody like Ted Cruz because Ted Cruz does not sound like Ron DeSantis.

00:45:52.000 Ted Cruz sounds like John McCain, you know, to me in a lot of ways.

00:45:57.000 Or he sounds like Marco Rubio.

00:45:58.000 He sounds like he is in the past, you know?

00:46:02.000 And same for Josh Hawley and same for all these guys that are AstroTurfed, even somebody like Matt Gaetz for that matter.

00:46:09.000 Where the hell is Matt Gaetz?

00:46:11.000 Talked to big game, loves the cameras, loves the media. 0.99

00:46:15.000 He wears these ridiculous outfits. 0.96

00:46:17.000 He unfollowed me on Twitter. 0.93

00:46:20.000 And I'm not, you know, that was a big mistake.

00:46:22.000 I don't like that at all. 0.99

00:46:24.000 But he wears these ridiculous outfits, big goofy head, big goofy hair. 0.99

00:46:28.000 Oh, and he loves the camera. 0.99

00:46:29.000 Give me a camera to, you know, show my big goofy head. 0.96

00:46:34.000 And where the hell is he? 0.97

00:46:35.000 I mean, yeah, he's talking a lot.

00:46:36.000 He's really living the dream over there.

00:46:39.000 To me, Ron DeSantis is like the model of what everybody should be expecting from Republicans in the midterms and 24, or even people that are not even elected officials.

00:46:49.000 This is what people should be talking about.

00:46:52.000 This is the kind of stuff.

00:46:53.000 That people should be pushing right now because the name of the game right now is big tech.

00:46:57.000 And there has never been a better opportunity to push a legislative or even a private sector solution to big tech.

00:47:05.000 This is when the issue is hot, is when a lot of the interests care about it.

00:47:09.000 There's a real appetite from donors and big money people to fix this thing.

00:47:15.000 And the only one who has pushed a serious solution that this seems to be a priority for is Ron DeSantis.

00:47:21.000 And the guy's the governor of Florida.

00:47:23.000 You know, he's not a sender.

00:47:24.000 And that's not, again, that's not to.

00:47:27.000 Say that that's a lesser position, but it's a national issue, and there are no national officials that are talking about it.

00:47:33.000 So I think we can expect a lot of good things from Ron DeSantis.

00:47:39.000 And by the way, I'm not like shilling him.

00:47:41.000 I feel like I sound like I'm shilling him.

00:47:44.000 You know, I'm not in touch with him, I'm not in touch with his people or anything.

00:47:49.000 You know, I don't have any like skin in the game with him, but I know that a lot of people are feeling despair, obviously, and feeling like there's no direction, there's no path forward, there's no vision.

00:48:02.000 And it is so white pilling and encouraging just two weeks after the inauguration to see a guy who really seems to have it figured out.

00:48:09.000 I mean, clearly he's got a good staff because this is the kind of stuff that a staff puts together this press conference, this legislative package.

00:48:18.000 So he's got a good staff.

00:48:19.000 He seems to, you know, he's good or he knows how to pick a good staff.

00:48:27.000 And like I said, it's the right issue, it's the right message, it's the right time, it's the right approach.

00:48:34.000 And it cannot be overstated what a white pill that is in a time like this.

00:48:39.000 Because just when you thought the other week, it's like, wow.

00:48:42.000 I mean, I said this yesterday Ted Cruz is throwing Trump under the bus, and everyone's throwing Marjorie Taylor Greene under the bus.

00:48:49.000 I'm thinking, yeah, okay, so not only do we get totally crushed by the Democrats and the Biden administration, but now the Republicans are going to screw us all over.

00:48:59.000 And, you know, they're going to continue to try that.

00:49:01.000 But we've got some fighters now.

00:49:03.000 We've got Marjorie Taylor Greene in Congress, we've got Paul Gosar, we've got Ron DeSantis.

00:49:09.000 It seems like there is going to be a continuation of what we've seen for the past four years that there is America first within the GOP after Trump.

00:49:21.000 And that's all we need are a few people.

00:49:23.000 We don't need a total takeover.

00:49:25.000 That would be nice if there were tons of people in the Republican Party doing this, but we don't need a ton of people.

00:49:32.000 We need a handful of really effective, really solid, really competent people.

00:49:37.000 And it seems like we've got them.

00:49:38.000 It seems like Trump has planted the seeds.

00:49:40.000 He got DeSantis elected in Florida.

00:49:42.000 Marjorie Taylor Greene got elected being a big Trump supporter.

00:49:46.000 So it seems like the seeds have been planted.

00:49:48.000 And now we've got this class of people.

00:49:50.000 It's not very big, but it's a start.

00:49:52.000 We've got people that are keeping up with the message.

00:49:56.000 They're focused.

00:49:56.000 They're competent, maybe even more competent than Trump.

00:50:00.000 What's so exciting about this is not only is DeSantis pushing this message, but this is way better than anything that happened under the Trump administration.

00:50:09.000 This is way better than anything that came out of the Trump White House as far as big tech censorship goes.

00:50:15.000 Obviously, DeSantis isn't the president, but it shows what he's capable of.

00:50:19.000 And it shows that there are Republicans that care about this stuff and maybe can do even more to fix it than Trump, who is in the White House.

00:50:28.000 That shows what I've been saying for years, okay, vindicated on something else.

00:50:34.000 It shows that building upon the Trump revolution is viable.

00:50:41.000 It shows that there is a future after Trump, and it's people that are pro Trump, pro America first.

00:50:48.000 And taking what he did and not saying, oh, you know, we're going to poo-poo Trump and say, oh, he's evil. 0.99

00:50:53.000 He screwed us. 0.98

00:50:55.000 Like some super chatter said last night, he was never our guy. 0.93

00:50:58.000 The future is to take what Trump did and, you know, recognize where it fell short in a lot of ways, but to build upon that, you know?

00:51:07.000 Okay, he didn't solve everything, but look, we made some solid gains.

00:51:12.000 Ron DeSantis, I would count him as a part of that as a political gain.

00:51:16.000 Marjorie Taylor Greene, Paul Gosar, a few others.

00:51:19.000 Let's take that and let's build on that.

00:51:21.000 Well, now all these people, these seeds that have been planted, you know, they're going to propose legislation.

00:51:26.000 They're going to be fighting in Congress.

00:51:28.000 And we could go further in 22.

00:51:31.000 We could go further in 24.

00:51:33.000 So it is a big white pill and much needed at a time like this.

00:51:38.000 And I'm not the first one to say it, but a lot of people have been talking about Ron DeSantis as a contender in 2024.

00:51:45.000 And, you know, it's early to talk about 2024 because 2020 happened like a few months ago.

00:51:51.000 But, uh,.

00:51:54.000 I don't think it's too early to start speculating, and I think you'd have to count Ron DeSantis as like he would be my front runner, and it doesn't mean anything now because it's four years away, and a lot can change in four years.

00:52:09.000 And maybe Trump will run.

00:52:10.000 You never know, right?

00:52:12.000 But four years out, and assuming that Trump is kind of in limbo right now, I'd say Ron DeSantis would be the runner up to Trump, and without Trump, number one, right?

00:52:23.000 It doesn't mean much because, like I said, still a lot of game left.

00:52:27.000 Biden's just getting in.

00:52:28.000 He's just getting comfortable, and a lot can change, and people will rise and fall in the next four years.

00:52:34.000 But right now, from where I'm standing, if it is Ron DeSantis, I think we'd be in good shape.

00:52:40.000 I don't think that is a bad successor.

00:52:42.000 I don't think that's a bad inheritor or successor to Trump in 2024.

00:52:48.000 I wouldn't be disappointed with that.

00:52:50.000 I don't think that's a step back.

00:52:51.000 In some ways, it has potential to be a step forward in a big way.

00:52:57.000 As evidenced by this and other things that he's done in Florida.

00:53:00.000 So, very exciting.

00:53:02.000 I don't know where it'll go, but I guess we'll have to wait and see once it passes.

00:53:07.000 It hasn't even been filed yet, but once it gets filed, then I think it'll get passed.

00:53:12.000 Once it gets passed, we'll see how it plays out in the courts.

00:53:16.000 I'm sure it'll be challenged, how effective it'll be.

00:53:20.000 Nevertheless, I'm glad that somebody is proposing something and something different.

00:53:24.000 Like I said, something novel.

00:53:26.000 It seems to be thorough, it's got teeth.

00:53:28.000 A lot of different angles here.

00:53:30.000 Election, you know, there's election officials involved.

00:53:34.000 There's consumer protection.

00:53:36.000 There's a lot of stuff there.

00:53:38.000 So hopefully it can give us some legal recourse against these big tech companies because if we don't start fighting back, it is going to be a massacre in the next decade.

00:53:50.000 I mean, we are going to get slaughtered.

00:53:53.000 If we don't have any legal tools, if we don't have any legal recourse or anybody in government passing things like this, We are basically just going to get raped to death by big tech. 0.79

00:54:03.000 And I know that's like a crass thing to say, but it's just true.

00:54:06.000 I mean, we are going to get absolutely annihilated by Facebook, Google.

00:54:11.000 They are an existential threat to what we're doing if we don't get the federal government or state governments to begin intervening and protecting.

00:54:20.000 And those are the only institutions that can do anything.

00:54:23.000 Those are the only institutions because, as evidenced by Parler, try going up against the big tech companies in any other way.

00:54:31.000 And you run up against a pretty big problem.

00:54:33.000 It's called Visa and MasterCard.

00:54:36.000 Ultimately, all roads lead to Visa and MasterCard.

00:54:40.000 You could get independent registrar, hosting, what I mean, you name it.

00:54:46.000 But ultimately, Visa and MasterCard they control the whole thing.

00:54:52.000 And I don't want to get into the details of all this, but they could basically veto anything in this country.

00:54:57.000 Almost nothing is viable without e commerce, credit card processing, and they run it.

00:55:02.000 And it's like, try as you might to evade every form of censorship from social media platforms to back end services to DDoS protection.

00:55:13.000 I mean, like, you name it.

00:55:14.000 But ultimately, it all goes through Visa and MasterCard on some level.

00:55:21.000 And the only institution that can exercise any kind of influence when it comes to that is the federal government.

00:55:29.000 That's it.

00:55:30.000 Or like a foreign government, but that's pretty dicey too.

00:55:33.000 So if it's going to come from somewhere, it'll come from the government.

00:55:36.000 If it's going to come from the government, it's going to come from solid America First Republican officials like DeSantis or Marjorie Taylor Greene, Paul Gossard, Donald Trump, you know, somebody like that.

00:55:49.000 But that's the press conference.

00:55:50.000 A much needed white pill.

00:55:52.000 Very good to hear.

00:55:53.000 And hey, look, it's a tough time right now.

00:55:57.000 I know that better than anybody.

00:55:58.000 I'm bearing the brunt of it in ways that you don't even know about.

00:56:01.000 And I don't want to get into it, but I'm bearing the brunt of a lot of the fallout from January 6th.

00:56:07.000 And it is a really difficult time.

00:56:09.000 It's really dark, but that's what we're in for.

00:56:12.000 This is a generational struggle, it's asymmetrical.

00:56:17.000 We are up against a way more powerful enemy.

00:56:19.000 It is not going to be easy.

00:56:21.000 We are going to get pushed back.

00:56:23.000 There will be major setbacks, but that's what we're in for.

00:56:27.000 And, you know, you got to be mentally prepared for that.

00:56:29.000 You got to kind of know that that's what we're pilled everything.

00:56:32.000 It's the end of America, whatever.

00:56:34.000 And now this week, white pilled again.

00:56:36.000 That's how we have to be, though.

00:56:38.000 You know, this is an intergenerational fight.

00:56:40.000 That means that we're going to fight our whole lives and it won't be over.

00:56:43.000 And our kids will fight their whole lives and it may not be over.

00:56:46.000 And our grandkids will fight their whole lives.

00:56:49.000 And if you take one defeat and say you're out of the game, oh, I lost.

00:56:53.000 Now I'm just going to give up.

00:56:55.000 You know, that is not the kind of people that we need to fight intergenerationally.

00:57:01.000 That's not the kind of thinking that is going to get us to the promised land here.

00:57:06.000 So, anyway, not to get too off topic or off track, but it's really important to look at things like this because we always got to be looking for the next thing.

00:57:18.000 We always got to be looking for the next evolution, the next step, the next incremental move or revolutionary move, you know, when those opportunities present themselves.

00:57:27.000 But, After the schlonging, the shellacking, what would Trump say?

00:57:33.000 Getting schlonged.

00:57:35.000 After what we've put up with for the past month or so, it's nice to see that there's a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel here, potentially, with something like this.

00:57:46.000 At the bare minimum, it shows that there's a path forward, perhaps.

00:57:51.000 But that's a press conference.

00:57:52.000 I want to move on and take a look at our super chats.

00:57:57.000 And let's take a look.

00:57:58.000 But what do you guys have to say?

00:57:59.000 Now it's your turn.

00:58:01.000 And we're turning it over to you.

00:58:03.000 Now it's your turn to make your voice heard on the America First show.

00:58:07.000 The Americans get to have their voice heard on America First, and we'll see what you guys have to say about all this.

00:58:14.000 We'll take a look.

00:58:17.000 We'll crack a bubbly and we'll take a look. 1.00

00:58:20.000 We've got Diligent who says they really had a nigga saying Reddit was right for once. 0.97

00:58:26.000 Yeah, and it turned out not to be true. 0.91

00:58:28.000 Reddit is never right, and they were wrong.

00:58:32.000 Speczo says, I watched every Star Wars movie for the first time ever over the last week, and my opinion of which ones were the best and worst caused more controversy than anything I ever said about race or religion on Mandalorian.

00:58:45.000 Now, it's epic.

00:58:46.000 What's your favorite?

00:58:47.000 Yeah, this is very controversial.

00:58:49.000 My favorite is, of course, Revenge of the Sith, and this is the only correct answer.

00:58:54.000 I'm not memeing, I'm not being like, that's the only right answer.

00:58:59.000 No, like, that is the only right answer, and it's not up for debate, and I'm not being Funny, and I don't care if you disagree, you're wrong.

00:59:10.000 Revenge of the Sith is the best one, hands down.

00:59:13.000 It is better than Empire Strikes Back.

00:59:15.000 It is.

00:59:17.000 And Empire Strikes Back is maybe a close second, but Revenge of the Sith is by far better than anything in the entire universe, okay?

00:59:26.000 In the Star Wars universe.

00:59:29.000 And there can be no disagreement about this.

00:59:31.000 If you disagree, you're probably, you know, 30 or up.

00:59:34.000 You're probably some 30 or up.

00:59:38.000 Who watched it when you were 10 years old and you're, you know, ancient baby boomer?

00:59:42.000 You rode your bike to the local theater and you, you know, you watch it with your best buddy named Gus and you got, you know, I don't know.

00:59:50.000 You went to the, what did people do in the 80s?

00:59:53.000 I don't know.

00:59:55.000 You rode your little bike across your small town to go and see it at the dollar show, Star Wars and whatever.

01:00:07.000 And that's the only, and you're only saying that for nostalgia.

01:00:10.000 But Star Wars 3 is objectively the best.

01:00:12.000 And it is controversial.

01:00:13.000 I don't know.

01:00:14.000 I mean, it's like, it's based because it's a Zoomer thing. 0.95

01:00:19.000 That's really the only reason. 0.94

01:00:20.000 It's Star Wars, the prequels are based because it's Zoomer culture. 0.94

01:00:25.000 It is Zoomer culture like video games, like Fortnite, like, you know, things like Dragon Ball Z and SpongeBob and all of that. 0.81

01:00:34.000 The prequels are based for that reason. 0.63

01:00:38.000 But a lot of the territorial, nerd culture aspect of it, like this Comic Con culture, that is very cringe.

01:00:38.000 Um,.

01:00:48.000 Being like that unironically about anything is super cringe.

01:00:52.000 When I do it, I'm kind of ironically appropriating it. 0.95

01:00:57.000 I'm ironically repurposing the cultural artifacts of the Zoomer generation, which is the most based online, extremely online, white male generation. 1.00

01:01:10.000 That's why it's acceptable. 1.00

01:01:11.000 That's why it's appropriate.

01:01:13.000 I'm not unironically a nerd for Star Wars.

01:01:17.000 I mean, I liked Star Wars when I was a kid, but am I unironically into it?

01:01:21.000 No.

01:01:22.000 I'm ironically using these artifacts online to promote a reactionary political agenda.

01:01:30.000 And for that reason, it's based.

01:01:32.000 Okay?

01:01:33.000 It's kind of complicated. 0.90

01:01:34.000 It's hard to explain to boomers who are so earnest. 0.96

01:01:38.000 You know, baby boomers' idea of humor is. 0.83

01:01:42.000 They see something and then they sing the chorus of an 80s song that is similar to what's going on. 0.98

01:01:50.000 My dad does this all the time.

01:01:52.000 Love my dad.

01:01:54.000 But my dad will do this all the time where we'll be talking about something and then he'll smile and he'll sing the chorus of an ancient boomer song that is thematically similar to what we're talking about.

01:02:08.000 That's a boomer's idea of humor.

01:02:10.000 Their idea of humor is being sarcastic.

01:02:16.000 They'll quote a movie from the 80s.

01:02:19.000 They'll quote a Mel Brooks movie or whatever.

01:02:24.000 They'll quote a movie with Chevy Chase, and it's something where it's irreverent.

01:02:28.000 The joke is that it's irreverent, the joke is that it's sarcastic.

01:02:32.000 That's Boomer's idea of humor.

01:02:34.000 It's very earnest, it's very one dimensional. 1.00

01:02:37.000 And their culture is like, oh, what if there's a guy who's a real jerk? 1.00

01:02:42.000 What if there's this guy and he acts like a real fool, or he's like a real jerk, or he's really silly? 1.00

01:02:48.000 What if we subverted your expectations? 1.00

01:02:51.000 What if something was happening and then we played a song that was like similar to what's happening? 1.00

01:02:57.000 That's what baby boomers find funny. 0.98

01:02:59.000 And with Zoomers, it's a little bit more complicated than that. 0.58

01:03:03.000 So, anyway, that's like that meme.

01:03:06.000 It's like Nick Fuentes explaining why being a Star Wars nerd isn't cringe.

01:03:14.000 But it's true, but there's something about the way that we use it that is, it's not like I'm actually nerding out.

01:03:21.000 It's on like several layers of irony, okay?

01:03:25.000 It's not earnest.

01:03:27.000 Anyway, so I like Star Wars 3, but not like that.

01:03:32.000 Pragmatic Culture says, see you at AFPAC King.

01:03:34.000 Looking forward to it.

01:03:35.000 Hey, me too.

01:03:36.000 It's going to be good.

01:03:37.000 It's going to be a world historic moment, in my opinion.

01:03:41.000 Kinkazuma says, if you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of him.

01:03:48.000 So true.

01:03:49.000 Sneaky says, Timothy, your mother and I are trying to sleep.

01:03:53.000 I don't know what that means. 0.80

01:03:55.000 Hydro says the Trump slander I sent in last night was shitty of me.

01:03:58.000 I recognize that. 0.95

01:04:00.000 It came from a place of frustration about his failures and ignorance on the details.

01:04:05.000 But a silver lining is that you gave a strong response to key points against Trump.

01:04:10.000 Well, you know, look, the super chats where you disagree with me, honestly, they're some of the better ones because it's way more interesting than when people say, no offense.

01:04:22.000 Not that they don't appreciate it, but it's more interesting than when people say for the.

01:04:26.000 100th time.

01:04:28.000 Hey, hey, King, love the show.

01:04:30.000 Keep up the great work.

01:04:31.000 And I appreciate when people say that, but that's like, oh, okay, thanks.

01:04:35.000 There's not a lot of substance there.

01:04:37.000 Not a lot for me to react to.

01:04:40.000 So, you know, don't like when I respond aggressively to something like that, you can't take it personally.

01:04:48.000 I love to argue.

01:04:51.000 I like when it's heated.

01:04:52.000 I like back and forth, you know?

01:04:55.000 That's why people can't get along with me because I just like to.

01:04:59.000 I like to argue.

01:04:59.000 Fight.

01:05:00.000 I like conflict.

01:05:03.000 It's stimulating to me.

01:05:06.000 And, you know, sometimes when I do that, people are like, oh, it's personal.

01:05:11.000 So I'm glad it's no hard feelings.

01:05:12.000 I'm glad you didn't take it personally.

01:05:14.000 It's good because, like you said, it catalyzes, you know, some strong arguments for people that may feel similarly, you know, if you felt that way.

01:05:22.000 So no offense taken.

01:05:26.000 Millennial Groyp versus February is giving me winter fatigue.

01:05:29.000 Yeah, tell me about it.

01:05:31.000 And the snow, we get hit with an avalanche of snow, and now it's the polar vortex this week.

01:05:36.000 Now it's going to be sub zero temperatures.

01:05:41.000 So, add to all the misery that's going on right now, it's also going to be zero degrees.

01:05:47.000 We're in an avalanche of snow.

01:05:49.000 I can't drive with the top down. 0.98

01:05:51.000 My car is slipping and sliding all over the place because I got these shitty tires that these dummies put on my car. 0.97

01:06:00.000 You know, it's like I never had a problem with my car, never had a problem with. 0.89

01:06:04.000 Like hydroplaning or anything like that, I get these new tires, and now every time it rains, I'm like flying around, and I'm a really good driver, so it's never a problem. 0.99

01:06:18.000 So it's a big pain in the ass in the winter. 0.98

01:06:20.000 It's really, you know, it's real, real rear wheel drive with these shitty tires, and I'm like just giving the massage or whoever an excuse to kill me. 0.99

01:06:31.000 I'm just not going to drive anymore, I guess, after I said that, right?

01:06:37.000 I'm going to get new tires tonight, right?

01:06:39.000 But so, if I explode in a car accident, you know it was the feds that killed David Perdue's kid.

01:06:48.000 You remember that during the Georgia thing?

01:06:51.000 What's his name's kid?

01:06:52.000 Remember that aide that died in that car accident explosion during the election stuff?

01:06:59.000 So, if it happens like that, you know it was the feds or a foreign government.

01:07:03.000 But anyway, my favorite thing to do is to drive. 0.90

01:07:08.000 My favorite thing in the world to do is drive around town with the top off, listening to music, eating fast food, ice cream, whatever.

01:07:16.000 And in the winter, I can't do that.

01:07:18.000 You know, I can't drive anywhere.

01:07:19.000 It's not enjoyable.

01:07:20.000 It's cold.

01:07:21.000 Can't take the top down. 0.99

01:07:24.000 It sucks. 0.98

01:07:26.000 So I'm with you, man. 0.99

01:07:27.000 And that's when you really start to feel it.

01:07:29.000 December, it's like, oh, this is different.

01:07:31.000 It's cold.

01:07:32.000 There's a little bit of snow.

01:07:34.000 It changes it up a little bit.

01:07:36.000 You enjoy the change in the seasons.

01:07:39.000 And then it's January, and then it's February, and then it's March, and you're like, okay, can we go outside now?

01:07:47.000 Can we not have to put on all this coats and hats and gloves and shoveling snow and everything?

01:07:54.000 So I'm with you.

01:07:56.000 Groyper Savants says, Do you think that most political ideology comes from a secularization of a religious worldview? 0.99

01:08:04.000 For instance, liberalism from Protestantism, communism from Judaism, fascism from Catholicism, or is this just a stupid idea that I've been playing with? 0.99

01:08:13.000 No, that's not a stupid idea. 0.99

01:08:15.000 It actually makes a lot of sense. 0.96

01:08:18.000 Ideology was born of the Enlightenment.

01:08:23.000 You didn't have ideology before the Enlightenment.

01:08:26.000 There was no ideology before the Enlightenment.

01:08:29.000 And maybe this had to do with the printing press, and maybe this had to do.

01:08:32.000 I mean, in a lot of ways, you can't attribute ideology entirely to secularism because it also coincided with the printing press, and the printing press begot secularism.

01:08:45.000 The modern central state.

01:08:47.000 It begot the modern state and bureaucracy.

01:08:50.000 So that cannot be discounted.

01:08:52.000 Very important.

01:08:53.000 And I think Burnham wrote about this, and I think Sam Francis wrote about this as well.

01:08:57.000 So I was reading something the other day from some medievalist who said, Oh, you know, you didn't have ideology before the Enlightenment.

01:09:07.000 Well, you also didn't have the printing press until like printing press, and then you get the Reformation, and then you get the Enlightenment.

01:09:14.000 You can't, you know.

01:09:16.000 It's not monocausal.

01:09:18.000 In any case, ideology is born of the Enlightenment, born during the time of the Enlightenment.

01:09:25.000 And yes, it is true that there are, I think, similarities, which there's no coincidence with Bolshevism and Judaism, liberalism and Protestantism, and Catholicism.

01:09:38.000 And I don't know if Catholicism is totally fascist, but certainly there are some similarities.

01:09:45.000 Where did fascism thrive? 0.56

01:09:48.000 Italy, Spain.

01:09:50.000 National socialism was a little different.

01:09:53.000 And liberalism, where do you get liberalism?

01:09:55.000 The United Kingdom, Northern Europe, America, right?

01:10:01.000 Where do you get communism? 0.92

01:10:02.000 Well, it came from Jewish revolutionaries in Russia, right?

01:10:06.000 It came from Karl Marx, who was Jewish in Germany.

01:10:10.000 So I think there's something true that's about that.

01:10:13.000 I don't know if I could put my finger on it.

01:10:15.000 I'd have to think about that a little bit, you know, not just on the spot.

01:10:18.000 But, you know, a lot of these things are biological in nature.

01:10:23.000 I think there is a biological explanation or a sociological explanation for why Northern Europeans are individualistic. 0.62

01:10:35.000 And why Jewish people are communal. 0.60

01:10:37.000 Because you have a.

01:10:40.000 I forget what it's called, but communism and Judaism have gone together for a long time.

01:10:45.000 I forget there's a word for it of like these Jewish communists that go back for a long time.

01:10:52.000 And also, Jews are revolutionaries, naturally. 0.78

01:10:56.000 They're without a state, they've been without a state since the diaspora, so that plays into it.

01:11:01.000 And, you know, so there's a lot there.

01:11:04.000 And.

01:11:05.000 And of course, Mediterranean people, Catholics are more communal, and obviously, there's something that is similar between the idea of a papacy and the idea of like a leader, you know, Il Duce or something like that.

01:11:21.000 So, I haven't done a lot of time to flesh that idea out, but I think you're onto something there.

01:11:27.000 I think it's true that people, I think, have certain attributes.

01:11:33.000 Their societies develop in a certain way, basically, because of their biology.

01:11:37.000 You know, their culture comes from their biology.

01:11:40.000 Their culture creates these sort of political conditions that they live in or political movements that they live in.

01:11:46.000 And if they're not expressed in religious terms, they're expressed in secular terms.

01:11:51.000 If they're not expressed in religious values, they're expressed in secular values.

01:11:56.000 If you're religious, individualism expresses itself in Protestantism, an individual interpretation of the Bible, an individual relationship with God.

01:12:05.000 And that's obviously individualism begets then liberalism and all of that.

01:12:13.000 It's analogous to Catholicism and how that would manifest then in fascism or communitarianism or something like that.

01:12:21.000 So, yeah, there's a lot of truth to that. 0.88

01:12:24.000 I think that makes sense to me.

01:12:26.000 Melon Busters says CPAC, America Uncensored.

01:12:30.000 I think it's uncanceled, which is even better.

01:12:32.000 Give me a break.

01:12:33.000 Hope you're doing well, Kingpin.

01:12:35.000 Yeah, I'm doing okay.

01:12:37.000 Yeah, well, it's even better than that.

01:12:39.000 The theme for CPAC this year is not America Uncensored, it's America Uncanceled, which is even better because.

01:12:47.000 Of course, CPAC is canceling everybody.

01:12:50.000 They've canceled me.

01:12:51.000 They've canceled Michelle Malkin.

01:12:53.000 They've canceled all the America Firsters.

01:12:55.000 They cancel, I'm sure, even like Trump officials and people like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Peter Brimolo.

01:13:02.000 Yeah, America uncanceled, except for all the people they blacklisted.

01:13:08.000 Jared Holt is invited.

01:13:09.000 Yeah, America uncanceled.

01:13:11.000 Let's invite the guy that works at the Atlanta Council and gets paid by NATO to cancel people.

01:13:17.000 So.

01:13:19.000 That's just, I mean, you all get it.

01:13:21.000 We all understand exactly the hypocrisy. 0.98

01:13:23.000 Not to belabor the point that we all understand, but it's just like how ridiculous can you get? 0.98

01:13:30.000 How absurd can you get?

01:13:31.000 CPAC, the cancels everybody, their theme is America uncanceled.

01:13:35.000 Yeah, really?

01:13:36.000 Rick Grinnell.

01:13:38.000 Yeah, he's the epitome of canceled, totally. 1.00

01:13:40.000 The big gay Trump appointee, intelligence community guy. 0.99

01:13:46.000 Yeah, he's. 0.99

01:13:49.000 Real victim of the culture wars, right?

01:13:53.000 Baguette Groyper says, It's so relatable to hear how Nick lost all his friends because of the show, because I lost mine in the exact same way, except my show was in the middle of ninth grade history class with 2016 Sargon talking points.

01:14:07.000 It's not the same.

01:14:09.000 It is, you know, look, don't get me wrong, it may be similar, but it is definitely not the same.

01:14:17.000 People tell me that all the time.

01:14:18.000 They're like, Yeah, that's just like me, dude.

01:14:21.000 It's like, is it.

01:14:23.000 Is it really, you know, it's similar to going to Charlottesville and like dropping out of college to do an internet show based on America First?

01:14:33.000 And like, it's definitely not the same.

01:14:37.000 Yeah, I'll give you, it might be similar, but people are like, wow, he's just like me.

01:14:37.000 It's similar.

01:14:45.000 Maybe, maybe a little bit.

01:14:47.000 Maybe it's similar, but not quite.

01:14:50.000 Triggered Red says, I don't think DeSantis' $100K fine a day is going to be effective.

01:14:55.000 Zuckerberg spent $300 million on mail in voting.

01:14:58.000 3 million is 1% of that, which is one month of censorship.

01:15:03.000 Also, why skeptical of Matt Gaetz?

01:15:05.000 He's been legit to me so far.

01:15:07.000 This doesn't seem like he has any guts.

01:15:10.000 Maybe I'm wrong.

01:15:12.000 He's definitely not the worst.

01:15:13.000 And a lot of good people are whispering in his ears.

01:15:16.000 Don't get me wrong.

01:15:16.000 There's a lot of good people talking to him.

01:15:19.000 And he may turn out to be good, but he just.

01:15:21.000 He unfollowed me on Twitter, which I don't like.

01:15:24.000 But besides that, he's like pro weed legalization.

01:15:28.000 He voted for Mike Lee's terrible H1B bill.

01:15:32.000 He went along unanimous consent for TPS for Hong Kongers. 0.58

01:15:37.000 You know, so to me, from what I've seen, it just seems like he's all talk, no action.

01:15:42.000 He just says what's popular.

01:15:43.000 That's my impression.

01:15:45.000 Maybe I'm wrong.

01:15:46.000 He's got good people in his ear.

01:15:49.000 But from what I can tell, he is.

01:15:51.000 And maybe I'm wrong because I don't know him that well.

01:15:54.000 And he's never reached out to me and he unfollowed me on Twitter. 0.99

01:15:56.000 So he doesn't even want to get a chance to know me or get a chance to introduce himself to me, which is a big mistake on his part because I have an army of Zoomers here. 0.98

01:16:06.000 But. 1.00

01:16:07.000 My impression is that he does not have the moral character to do this job because that's what is required here integrity, courage, guts.

01:16:16.000 And he strikes me as somebody who, when he does something good, he's being pushed in that direction by one of the good people talking to him.

01:16:23.000 But otherwise, he is just basically somebody with unexceptional character who is doing what he thinks is popular and, you know, really good with the cameras and really good at talking, and he's a self promoter and all of that.

01:16:38.000 But doesn't seem like he really cares that much and doesn't seem like a real fighter.

01:16:46.000 He seems like somebody who wants to play a fighter on TV.

01:16:49.000 That's my impression.

01:16:50.000 And I get that impression, like I said, because he voted on a really bad immigration bill.

01:16:55.000 I think it was a Mike Lee immigration bill.

01:16:58.000 He allowed TPS to pass with unanimous consent in the House after the election.

01:17:03.000 He's pro marijuana legalization.

01:17:05.000 Like he's bad on a lot of issues, but issues that are like popular right now.

01:17:10.000 He's kind of like a mixed bag of like what.

01:17:13.000 People think it's popular.

01:17:15.000 And he hasn't really done anything that's courageous.

01:17:19.000 I mean, when has he really taken a stand that would punish him?

01:17:23.000 He's always there to be the America first guy when there's something to gain politically.

01:17:27.000 But when there's something to lose politically, nowhere to be found.

01:17:30.000 That's how you know someone's a grifter.

01:17:32.000 I'm America first even when the chips are down.

01:17:35.000 I'm America first when there's a lot to gain.

01:17:37.000 I'm America first when there's a lot to lose.

01:17:40.000 I was America first in 2017 when it was radioactive.

01:17:44.000 And I was speaking at American Renaissance.

01:17:46.000 And I'm America first. 0.99

01:17:48.000 I was America first during the Groyper War. 0.90

01:17:52.000 I spearheaded the Groyper War.

01:17:53.000 And I was America first during the Trump campaign in 2020.

01:17:57.000 And I was America first during Stop the Steal.

01:17:59.000 And I was America first after the Capitol Siege.

01:18:02.000 You know?

01:18:03.000 And it's like I take a stand.

01:18:04.000 I take a stand even when I pay a price.

01:18:06.000 I take a stand for my friends.

01:18:08.000 I take a stand for what I believe in, even when it costs me.

01:18:12.000 And Matt Gaetz, when has he paid a price?

01:18:14.000 Michelle Malkin, America first, even when she had to pay a price and she got blacklisted and fired from YAF and everything.

01:18:23.000 You know, real leadership, real guts, and there's no shortage of opportunities to show leadership these days, and I don't see it.

01:18:31.000 I see a guy who's there to say the right thing at the right time to get the acclaim, and that's just not going to cut it.

01:18:38.000 Now, maybe I'm wrong, and I hope he proves me wrong because we need people, and it would be great if he would demonstrate that I'm wrong on all of that, but that's my impression, and I can't shake it.

01:18:48.000 And same with Josh Hawley.

01:18:50.000 Same with Josh Hawley.

01:18:51.000 Exactly the same thing.

01:18:53.000 I think they're fake, I think they're phonies.

01:18:56.000 I think Ron DeSantis is about as good as you're going to get, as good as there is, I should say. 0.95

01:19:03.000 And I think these guys are pretenders.

01:19:06.000 Melon Buster says CPAC.

01:19:08.000 I just read that, actually.

01:19:10.000 James Farmer says, can you rank all the U.S. presidents?

01:19:14.000 No, nor would I really want to.

01:19:16.000 I'm not into that kind of stuff.

01:19:18.000 I could name all the U.S. presidents, but ranking them, I mean, like that would be.

01:19:30.000 Pelio says anti establishment lefties need to do a complete 180 on BLM.

01:19:36.000 Otherwise, they're digging their own graves.

01:19:38.000 I suggest reaching out to them via Jimmy Dore's audience.

01:19:41.000 This is a way.

01:19:43.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:19:43.000 We'll see.

01:19:45.000 I don't know Jimmy Dore.

01:19:46.000 I've never talked to him.

01:19:47.000 I don't watch his show.

01:19:48.000 I mean, I'll check it out.

01:19:49.000 People talk to me a lot about him, but I just am very skeptical that that's going to work.

01:19:57.000 I mean, I'd like to be proven wrong. 0.94

01:19:59.000 It's worth a shot, but to me, Pandering to the left is like fool's gold. 0.61

01:20:03.000 It's something that people in the distant and right have had wet dreams about for years.

01:20:08.000 I remember when I was at CPAC in 2018.

01:20:13.000 2018?

01:20:18.000 Maybe 2019.

01:20:19.000 I don't remember, honestly.

01:20:21.000 I think it must have been 2018.

01:20:23.000 When I was at CPAC in 2018, Richard Spencer was there, and I bumped into him and we talked.

01:20:33.000 And he was like, You know what the future is?

01:20:36.000 Chapo Trap House is going to become alt right.

01:20:39.000 I'm like talking to the Chapo Trap House guys.

01:20:41.000 I'm talking to these left wing guys.

01:20:42.000 And I was like, Oh, really? 1.00

01:20:43.000 And I'm thinking, What are you, a fucking retard? 1.00

01:20:43.000 Great. 1.00

01:20:46.000 You think Chapo Trap House people who are like hardcore shit libs and think you're a Nazi, you think that they're prime candidates to become alt right in your dreams? 0.98

01:20:57.000 I just don't think it happens to a great degree. 0.99

01:21:00.000 And in any case, I think that it is.

01:21:03.000 It is much less likely to happen than normal conservatives coming to our side, coming to the side of America first, or something that is a little bit more out there, you know?

01:21:14.000 Like, what's more likely to win over?

01:21:16.000 Like Bernie bros who are hardcore shitlibs or like Trump supporters who support building a wall on the southern border and all this kind of stuff?

01:21:26.000 You know what I mean? 0.65

01:21:27.000 Like, it's just about fertile ground and like look at what's right in front of you.

01:21:30.000 People want to do this clever, convoluted thing.

01:21:33.000 Let's just take the path of least resistance.

01:21:35.000 I know it's not sexy.

01:21:36.000 I know it's not.

01:21:37.000 You know, being pandering and appealing to some of these conventional and traditional conservative bases.

01:21:45.000 I know it's not so exciting to do this like Ted Cruz kind of shtick, but it's probably where we're going to get the easiest and most massive support as opposed to trying to make this realignment happen.

01:22:00.000 It hasn't happened for years.

01:22:04.000 Let's see.

01:22:05.000 Black Lasers says, I discovered that most of your active haters are people that used to like you originally.

01:22:10.000 Until you personally shun them, then it's like they received a salvation or something. 0.94

01:22:15.000 LMAO, people who have thin skin should not be a part of the dissident right.

01:22:19.000 Yeah, tell me about it.

01:22:20.000 Literally, it's all of them.

01:22:22.000 The people that hate me the most, without exception, are people that tried really hard to be my friend and then I just didn't want anything to do with them.

01:22:33.000 Like Spencer, you know, I just talked about him a moment ago.

01:22:37.000 He is somebody that we feuded throughout 2017, and then he wanted to be my friend again in 2018.

01:22:45.000 You know, and I was like, well, I'll stop like attacking you.

01:22:48.000 You know, like I won't, like, okay, truce, right? 1.00

01:22:52.000 And then he started stuff up again, you know, and then I was like, okay, fuck this guy. 0.99

01:22:57.000 You know, I mean, I thought we had a truce, and then he starts attacking me. 0.98

01:23:01.000 And then he's texting me and he's like, hey, we should get together.

01:23:04.000 Hey, we should really talk sometime.

01:23:06.000 Hey, we should really call.

01:23:07.000 And I just didn't respond. 1.00

01:23:08.000 I'm like, fuck you. 1.00

01:23:11.000 You know, like you attacked me initially, and then I was like, okay, you were a child. 1.00

01:23:17.000 Let's drop it.

01:23:18.000 Okay.

01:23:19.000 And he was the one begging me to have a truce.

01:23:23.000 And then he starts attacking me again.

01:23:25.000 Then he's like, hey, we should talk.

01:23:28.000 I think we have a lot in common, blah, blah, blah. 0.99

01:23:30.000 I'm like, yeah, no, you're a freak. 0.98

01:23:32.000 I don't want to talk to you. 0.97

01:23:33.000 And then, oh, then that's when he really decided to hate me.

01:23:37.000 Case in point.

01:23:39.000 And, you know, even a lot of these gimmick accounts, I have screenshots of them in my DMs.

01:23:45.000 Hey, can I come on your show?

01:23:47.000 Hey, retweet this.

01:23:48.000 Hey, love what you're doing, blah, blah, blah.

01:23:50.000 Oh, and then, you know, it's like Buddy from The Incredibles.

01:23:53.000 I don't reply to them, and then they turn into villains.

01:23:56.000 There was this one Groyper account where he was, I did a stream about it in 2020.

01:24:04.000 And he was posting Nick is my personal hero.

01:24:07.000 He's going to save America.

01:24:08.000 Nick for president.

01:24:09.000 I love this guy.

01:24:10.000 He's blah, blah, blah.

01:24:12.000 And then I blocked him at some point because I forget. 0.99

01:24:15.000 He did something really dumb. 0.97

01:24:17.000 And then he's like, hey, reminder to never super chat Nick again because he was always a no good grifter. 0.99

01:24:23.000 Really?

01:24:24.000 You know, and every single time, every single time, this is exactly how it goes.

01:24:29.000 Literally without fail.

01:24:31.000 This is always how it goes.

01:24:34.000 And of course, that's how it is.

01:24:35.000 My grandma always used to tell me when I was a kid, she said, The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.

01:24:42.000 She said, It's a thin line, like that song between love and hate.

01:24:47.000 It's a thin line.

01:24:49.000 The real opposite of love is indifference.

01:24:52.000 So people that love you, Oh, they very easily and quickly go over to hate because it's not really the opposite.

01:25:00.000 They care about you, they're obsessed with you, and it goes from positive to negative as opposed to just not caring.

01:25:07.000 And that's why, invariably, the people that are so invested in hating me are the people that loved me, but for whatever reason, you know, they weren't cool enough or whatever.

01:25:16.000 They weren't cool or smart, or maybe they were feds or whatever.

01:25:20.000 But that's what happens.

01:25:23.000 It's what happens when you're, look, when you're a force of nature like me, that's just what happens.

01:25:29.000 And I don't mean to say that to come off any kind of way.

01:25:33.000 I just mean that when you are somebody that is really making a difference, and maybe not even making a difference, but you're really sort of like a forceful personality, you polarize people.

01:25:46.000 It's just natural.

01:25:49.000 If you're making waves, whether it's effective or whether you're just making people talk, it polarizes people.

01:25:57.000 People love you or they hate you.

01:25:58.000 I mean, have you ever noticed that?

01:26:01.000 The strongest personalities, the most, right?

01:26:03.000 I mean, that.

01:26:04.000 That's just the nature of the beast.

01:26:06.000 It just goes with the territory.

01:26:07.000 That's how it is.

01:26:09.000 Anybody, anybody who's really making waves is going to create lots of enemies and lots of zealots.

01:26:18.000 You know, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

01:26:20.000 So don't be dismayed.

01:26:21.000 Some people are like, have you ever thought if you did this or that, that people wouldn't hate you?

01:26:26.000 It doesn't matter.

01:26:27.000 You could do or say anything, and you'll always have people that will hate you for irrational reasons or criticize you or whatever.

01:26:36.000 It is what it is.

01:26:37.000 It's kind of funny that some of these people they claim to be, oh, I'm a Nick hater because of this, this, and this.

01:26:43.000 It's like, really?

01:26:44.000 Well, here's these DMs where you loved me and you whatever, and then you didn't get play.

01:26:50.000 Oh, so then you decided I was always a no good grifter, whatever, right?

01:26:55.000 Every time, every single time.

01:26:58.000 Anyway, so yeah, it's pretty funny. 0.99

01:27:04.000 Super Lionheart says the CPAC speaker list gets more gay with each year. 0.98

01:27:09.000 Who the hell is going to fly out to Florida to listen to Sarah Huckabee? 1.00

01:27:13.000 Yeah, or Rick Grinnell or Steve Scalise?

01:27:17.000 Who the hell else is on their lineup?

01:27:19.000 It's a disaster.

01:27:20.000 I mean, there's nothing on there that is exciting.

01:27:23.000 AFPAC is going to be way more exciting than CPAC this year.

01:27:26.000 It's kind of funny.

01:27:28.000 Raul says, and it's, you know, look, it's kind of a bold move to go forward with AFPAC, honestly.

01:27:38.000 And.

01:27:40.000 I think it's in some ways a little bit risky, but we're really doing our due diligence, extreme everything to make sure this goes off really well.

01:27:53.000 But it's a bold play.

01:27:54.000 But if it works and if AFPAC is a big hit, and I think it will be, we've taken every precaution, every preparation to make it a success.

01:28:05.000 It's going to be like a game changer because the balance of power will shift then from CPAC to AFPAC.

01:28:12.000 And it's like, this is going to be the talk of the.

01:28:14.000 I hope I'm not foreshadowing anything bad.

01:28:18.000 I don't even want to say that, but it's like, AFPAC is going to be where the energy is at.

01:28:24.000 Nobody wants to go to CPAC to hear Rick Ranell.

01:28:27.000 People want to go to AFPAC to hear Nick Fuentes.

01:28:28.000 People want to go to AFPAC to hear from our speakers, which are really exciting.

01:28:32.000 And I can't wait to share the speakers list with you.

01:28:34.000 It's like going to blow you away.

01:28:37.000 But it's going to be fun, it's going to be exciting.

01:28:41.000 And.

01:28:42.000 It's going to be a real, I think, symbolic sort of a moment where, in the aftermath of Trump, you know, sort of taking a step back, and it's the Biden administration, there's this lack of direction, this lack of leadership.

01:28:56.000 You've got CPAC putting up these very lame, boring people with no excitement, and then you've got AFPAC.

01:29:02.000 Remember us? 0.99

01:29:03.000 Remember fucking us? 1.00

01:29:05.000 Remember the Groypers? 1.00

01:29:08.000 And remember Stop the Steal? 1.00

01:29:09.000 Remember the people that were America first from the beginning kicking ass? 0.98

01:29:13.000 You know, we were the underdogs. 0.96

01:29:16.000 We were the cool, funny guys, the edgy guys.

01:29:19.000 And not like we went away.

01:29:20.000 I mean, we've been around.

01:29:21.000 I was, you know, I've been getting great numbers on my show ever since Groybor and we've been having great success. 1.00

01:29:27.000 But I mean, it's like, hey, knock, knock, fuck you. 0.99

01:29:31.000 We have been America first. 1.00

01:29:32.000 We have that energy, and we're still here.

01:29:35.000 And we did the work.

01:29:38.000 We built the infrastructure.

01:29:41.000 And this is our party.

01:29:42.000 This is the Groyper Party now. 1.00

01:29:44.000 Grand old party in my ass. 1.00

01:29:46.000 This is the Groyper Party now, bitch. 1.00

01:29:49.000 This is the GOP, Groyper. 1.00

01:29:54.000 What does the O stand for? 0.88

01:29:57.000 Groyper Party.

01:29:58.000 Groyper owned party, Groyper occupied party now.

01:30:02.000 That's what it is.

01:30:04.000 So, yeah, it's going to be good.

01:30:07.000 Let's see.

01:30:08.000 Raul says apparently the founder of Newsmax went to a Jewish university in Israel.

01:30:13.000 Yeah, there you go.

01:30:15.000 Rabbi Groyper says it's cringe to see all the conservatives fangirling over Rick Grinnell.

01:30:20.000 Who cares if Buddha Judge is called first? 0.99

01:30:22.000 It is a stain on the Trump administration if Grinnell is considered the first fag. 1.00

01:30:27.000 Totally agree. 1.00

01:30:28.000 Why is that a good thing?

01:30:30.000 All these conservatives are like, take that, Biden. 0.96

01:30:33.000 We appointed the first gay guy under Trump. 0.65

01:30:36.000 Why is that a good thing? 1.00

01:30:37.000 Aren't we against that?

01:30:41.000 Take that.

01:30:42.000 We achieved historic firsts for the left before the left could do it.

01:30:46.000 Doesn't that mean we're losing?

01:30:48.000 Doesn't that mean you're losing?

01:30:50.000 We did the left's job before they could.

01:30:53.000 We made all these historic firsts for the left before the left even got into power.

01:30:59.000 Yeah, go us, I guess.

01:31:00.000 Go the right.

01:31:01.000 For doing the left's work.

01:31:03.000 Yeah, good job.

01:31:05.000 What a great thing.

01:31:07.000 UW Chad says, Here are some of my Blackberry gains. 1.00

01:31:12.000 Hodle the bag, retards. 1.00

01:31:14.000 Hey, well, thanks. 1.00

01:31:16.000 Yeah, I sold.

01:31:17.000 I'm out of there.

01:31:18.000 But I appreciate your gains. 1.00

01:31:20.000 Rabbi Groyper says, As long as you didn't lose 700K like that retarded David Portnoy, you still have diamond hands. 1.00

01:31:27.000 Yeah, that's true. 1.00

01:31:28.000 Mango says, If you spend your last moments of freedom watching Rick and Morty, you deserve to go to prison for three years.

01:31:34.000 Yeah, totally agree.

01:31:36.000 Hydro says, Could the whole GameStop thing be hedge fund versus hedge fund competition thing rather than simply a normie versus hedge fund thing?

01:31:46.000 Maybe millennial hedge funds were squeezing some money from boomer hedge funds.

01:31:51.000 I don't know, honestly.

01:31:51.000 I don't know.

01:31:53.000 I don't think so, but I don't know.

01:31:55.000 Rabbi Groyper says, What is your opinion on Curtis Yarvin?

01:31:59.000 I haven't read much of his stuff, but he's pretty smart.

01:32:03.000 And says, Hey, Nick, just want to thank you for putting on the show despite the debate. 1.00

01:32:07.000 Platforming and cringe super chats, you make this gay world a less terrible place. 1.00

01:32:11.000 Well, thanks a lot. 1.00

01:32:12.000 It's what I'm trying to do, and I appreciate it.

01:32:15.000 I'm glad you feel that way because it's not easy, but I'm glad that you're getting something out of it.

01:32:24.000 Sanja says businesses here in California are bringing lawsuits against the state since there was no legal standing for the lockdowns.

01:32:31.000 This should be happening everywhere.

01:32:32.000 Totally agree.

01:32:33.000 Sammy T says to me, it feels so weird that Trump is just kind of gone.

01:32:37.000 It hasn't computed in my mind yet.

01:32:39.000 I know.

01:32:40.000 Slushy or milkshake, says MacMan.

01:32:44.000 Milkshake, definitely.

01:32:47.000 Because a milkshake has sugar and fat.

01:32:50.000 A slushy just has sugar.

01:32:52.000 Joker says, God bless Ron DeSantis in Florida.

01:32:55.000 People living in Florida probably have the best life right now.

01:32:58.000 I can't imagine how it's like in other states.

01:33:01.000 Yeah, I know.

01:33:02.000 They do.

01:33:02.000 You do have it the best.

01:33:04.000 MacMan says, Ted Cruz is just a grifter with a podcast.

01:33:07.000 Dude did nothing but clip cringe scenes from hearings while Big Tech took out the king. 1.00

01:33:12.000 Holly is a performative pussy. 1.00

01:33:14.000 DeSantis is the man. 1.00

01:33:15.000 It's that simple.

01:33:16.000 Yeah, well said.

01:33:17.000 Totally agree.

01:33:21.000 Give me a sec.

01:33:22.000 I got to refresh because entropy is glitching.

01:33:24.000 Let me take a look here.

01:33:32.000 Mac, I just read that.

01:33:36.000 Jeff says the protests we had in Germany all over last year were just a gathering of boomers without a deeper political understanding, led by crazy libertarians and people who believe in totally insane conspiracy theories. 0.87

01:33:49.000 Don't see a chance for success here. 0.72

01:33:50.000 Well, yeah, I mean, Germany is totally paused.

01:33:52.000 I'm not talking about Germany.

01:33:55.000 John says, after 9 11, the next decade of politics revolved around terrorism.

01:33:59.000 Thank you for making the COVID lockdowns the number one AF issue.

01:34:03.000 No one will care about immigration or Israel if businesses are closed, kids can't go to school, and everyone has to wear masks.

01:34:09.000 Well, and it's something that can unite a broad political coalition because it's something that's non ideological and it's something that transcends class and race and everything.

01:34:22.000 So politically, it's very expedient.

01:34:25.000 Polish American Groypers is after taking a brief haiku from your show.

01:34:31.000 Haiku?

01:34:32.000 I must say you are better now than ever.

01:34:34.000 You are like a chateau, something.

01:34:36.000 You excel with age.

01:34:38.000 Haven't ever seen such an eloquent 28 year old.

01:34:40.000 Really impressive young blood.

01:34:42.000 Keep it up.

01:34:42.000 Well, thanks, but I'm 22.

01:34:44.000 Well, yeah, I appreciate it.

01:34:47.000 Macman says Matt Gates. 1.00

01:34:49.000 I'm spelling it gay. 1.00

01:34:51.000 Gates. 1.00

01:34:53.000 Babe and Baby says a year into the pandemic, multiple vaccines being administered.

01:34:57.000 To millions of Americans and COVID numbers seeming to be subsiding, yet now Fauci and others are calling for people to wear multiple masks.

01:35:05.000 I'm done with face diapers.

01:35:06.000 Yeah, me too. 1.00

01:35:09.000 How retarded do people have to be? 1.00

01:35:11.000 I mean, how stupid can you be? 1.00

01:35:13.000 Oh, you have to wear two masks, but if you really want to be safe, wear three. 1.00

01:35:17.000 And people are like, okay, you know, people are like, okay, I'll put three masks on.

01:35:23.000 And they go out and take a picture of themselves.

01:35:25.000 Double masking is where it's at. 1.00

01:35:28.000 Go fuck yourself. 1.00

01:35:29.000 I mean, you are a slave to the New World Order. 1.00

01:35:34.000 They take a picture of themselves.

01:35:35.000 Doesn't that tell you everything you need to know?

01:35:38.000 Think of it. 0.99

01:35:38.000 You're a wagee, you're a slave. 0.99

01:35:41.000 You get on TV, they tell you, time to wear two masks. 0.98

01:35:45.000 You're like, oh boy.

01:35:48.000 You put on mask number one, mask number two, you go outside, and then you take a picture of yourself, post it online.

01:35:53.000 I like double masking.

01:35:54.000 Double masking is where it's at.

01:35:57.000 What are you doing?

01:35:57.000 What are you doing there?

01:35:59.000 Really think about what people are doing with that.

01:36:03.000 Why take a picture?

01:36:04.000 Why take a picture?

01:36:06.000 Rachel Maddow told you to do it.

01:36:08.000 You went outside and you did a little photo shoot and you posted it on Twitter and you said, hey, this is a good thing.

01:36:08.000 You did it.

01:36:13.000 The thing that TV told me to do is where it's at.

01:36:16.000 Look at me.

01:36:17.000 I'm doing what is where it's at.

01:36:19.000 Everyone, look at me.

01:36:20.000 It's like, it's so transparent what, like psychologically, what's going on.

01:36:27.000 People are sick.

01:36:28.000 It's a sickness.

01:36:30.000 Putting on three, four masks. 0.95

01:36:32.000 How insane do you have to be?

01:36:34.000 But honestly, that's human beings. 0.51

01:36:36.000 I mean, that's just how people are. 0.96

01:36:37.000 They're just totally followers, total mental slaves.

01:36:42.000 I can't imagine.

01:36:44.000 TV says, hey, time to put one hand on your head, jump up and down.

01:36:51.000 Oh, but I didn't say Simon says.

01:36:54.000 I mean, this is the game that we play in this country.

01:36:57.000 Basterisk says, I can't watch the show tonight.

01:36:59.000 I hope replays return soon.

01:37:01.000 I know you guys are working to death.

01:37:02.000 The show is a bright light in dark times.

01:37:04.000 Thanks.

01:37:05.000 Yeah, we are working very, very hard on that.

01:37:08.000 Earl Turner says George Floyd raping.

01:37:10.000 Okay, I'm not going to read that.

01:37:12.000 Display names as I'm not saying Cruz is great, but he voted against some awful bills, including the 2018 omnibus and the December globalist stimulus that Trump disgracefully signed.

01:37:24.000 How could you vote for Trump but not Cruz?

01:37:26.000 I think we shouldn't vote for anyone who voted for the stimulus andor overturning Trump's veto.

01:37:31.000 Cruz was no on both.

01:37:33.000 Well, Trump signed with the caveat that they wanted to send it back to get an increased stimulus check, which, in fairness, they never.

01:37:44.000 They never completed that.

01:37:48.000 So, what you're saying is not true.

01:37:50.000 When Trump signed it, he sent it back to Congress to revise with certain preconditions, and it never got back out of Congress.

01:37:58.000 And it won't, they, you know, that was left unresolved when Trump left office.

01:38:02.000 And now Biden won't even pass this same stimulus potentially until March.

01:38:09.000 So, what you're saying is not true.

01:38:11.000 All this anti Trump shilling, and you people don't even know what you're talking about.

01:38:15.000 You don't even know what you're talking about.

01:38:17.000 Cruz voted for it.

01:38:19.000 Trump signed it, but he invoked, I forget, some special provision that sent it back, didn't pass it into law.

01:38:25.000 That's why people didn't get $600 checks because, or actually, you know what?

01:38:30.000 Am I even right?

01:38:31.000 Maybe I'm not even right.

01:38:32.000 I think maybe that did go out.

01:38:33.000 I think they did.

01:38:34.000 Did they send out the $600?

01:38:36.000 I don't even remember.

01:38:36.000 But in any case, it's not like Trump didn't send it back with preconditions.

01:38:41.000 I don't, you know, look, I'm a little tired, but the point is, he sent it back with preconditions.

01:38:47.000 I don't remember exactly the outcome because, you know, A lot has happened since then, but he did send it back with preconditions. 0.94

01:38:55.000 What's more is he's a lame duck president.

01:38:57.000 He's dealing with no leverage.

01:38:59.000 He was pushing and pushing for $2,000 checks, and he did send it back.

01:39:03.000 He did invoke that provision.

01:39:05.000 I don't remember what the final result was there.

01:39:10.000 I don't think they completed it, though, although I don't remember where it was at in the process by the time he left office.

01:39:16.000 But the point is, he sent it back.

01:39:18.000 He didn't want $2,000.

01:39:21.000 Don't play the same role in the legislative process that the legislators do.

01:39:24.000 I don't know why people don't understand that.

01:39:27.000 I mean, Trump, he vetoed the National Defense Authorization Act.

01:39:31.000 And what did they do?

01:39:32.000 They overrode it overwhelmingly.

01:39:34.000 And you think they couldn't have done that with the COVID stimulus?

01:39:37.000 He's got no leverage.

01:39:38.000 He is a lame duck president who is, I mean, he's got no clout with the Republican establishment. 0.98

01:39:45.000 And honestly, at a certain point, people aren't just looking to be ignorant when it comes to this. 0.98

01:39:49.000 You know, the question is, Well, Cruz voted for office bill.

01:39:54.000 Cruz voted for awful bills, and so did Trump.

01:39:58.000 Trump signed awful bills.

01:39:59.000 Well, you know, why would we not vote for Cruz but vote for Trump?

01:40:04.000 Well, because Trump came down the escalator in 2015 and he said they're bringing drugs, crime, and rapists.

01:40:11.000 And he started a movement that blew up the Republican establishment and he defeated Hillary Clinton.

01:40:18.000 And honestly, everything that happened after that really doesn't matter that much.

01:40:23.000 And I said this from the beginning.

01:40:24.000 You could go back and watch my show on RSBN from 2017, and I said the same thing.

01:40:30.000 You could go back four years ago and watch this show.

01:40:34.000 And four years ago, I said, look, Trump beat 16 Republicans.

01:40:39.000 He started a movement.

01:40:41.000 He talked about immigration and trade and foreign wars.

01:40:44.000 He instigated and catalyzed a realignment.

01:40:48.000 He brought Obama voters and flipped the Midwest and defeated Hillary Clinton, preventing wars, preventing worst case scenario events.

01:40:57.000 I said, and everything that happens after that is a bonus.

01:41:00.000 Everything that happens in the Trump administration is the bonus.

01:41:03.000 I said that four years ago.

01:41:05.000 And I think the same is true reflecting on the past four years.

01:41:10.000 And, you know, it's like if you don't get that by now, I've explained that to death.

01:41:15.000 If you don't get that, you just don't understand politics.

01:41:18.000 If you don't understand how Donald Trump is meaningfully different from Ted Cruz, you don't understand politics.

01:41:24.000 Trump started a revolution and he can't finish it, he can't complete it.

01:41:29.000 He doesn't have a political background, he doesn't have a good team.

01:41:33.000 Frankly, honestly, he just didn't know what he was doing for the past four years.

01:41:38.000 And I hate to say that, but it's just true.

01:41:40.000 And how could you expect him to?

01:41:42.000 The guy's a private person his whole life.

01:41:45.000 Not only does he get thrust into the presidency of the United States, but with everything bearing down against him, not just the conventional opposition, but his own party, his own people, his own family, Jared Kushner and Ivanka, and his staff, and saboteurs throughout the White House, and his own party, and Republican legislative leaders who thwarted him at every turn.

01:42:07.000 So he's playing on God mode, he's playing on expert hardcore mode, and he's got no experience.

01:42:12.000 And people say, well, he didn't do a very good job, so he's the same as Ted Cruz.

01:42:17.000 Ted Cruz is a Harvard educated lawyer who is in the Senate.

01:42:24.000 And you're condemning Trump for something he doesn't even play the same role in the legislative process that Ted Cruz does.

01:42:33.000 Ted Cruz actually has to vote for this stuff.

01:42:35.000 Trump signs it.

01:42:36.000 Trump really doesn't have that much leverage because Trump signs it, they have a supermajority behind it.

01:42:43.000 And that's what happened with the National Defense Authorization Act.

01:42:47.000 Trump vetoed.

01:42:48.000 How did that work out?

01:42:50.000 They overrode the veto overwhelmingly.

01:42:51.000 He dared them to veto it.

01:42:53.000 He dared Republicans to veto a bill that did not include an override of Section 230 or an elimination of Section 230.

01:43:00.000 He dared them to override the bill that contained provisions that blocked the withdrawal from Afghanistan and which had the removal of Confederate names from the bases.

01:43:10.000 And they did.

01:43:12.000 And they did.

01:43:13.000 They overrode it without a second thought.

01:43:15.000 They came back into session at the end of December just to override the veto on the NDAA.

01:43:21.000 And then you're like, oh, well, Trump signed it, so why would we vote for him?

01:43:26.000 Because Trump is somebody who is well intentioned, and if enabled with the right people, can do a lot of damage.

01:43:33.000 Trump is based, and he is America First, and he started all of this.

01:43:37.000 We wouldn't be having this conversation if it wasn't for Trump.

01:43:41.000 We'd be in Hillary Clinton, term number two, or we'd be in, I don't know, Jeb Bush just got killed by Joe Biden, or whatever.

01:43:49.000 Right?

01:43:50.000 And there'd be no conversation about big tech.

01:43:52.000 There'd be no conversation about demographics.

01:43:55.000 There'd be no conversation about.

01:43:57.000 Any of it about withdrawal from the wars, any of it, you know, and it makes and people like pretend not to understand this. 0.99

01:44:06.000 I it's like the stupidest thing in the world to me that people still don't understand. 1.00

01:44:12.000 Honestly, people just aren't that smart. 1.00

01:44:15.000 I really think that's what it comes down to.

01:44:17.000 People are overly emotional, they don't know where to direct their emotions and frustration, or they just lack discernment.

01:44:24.000 But I don't know how many times I have to explain this.

01:44:27.000 The evidence is just mountainous, like.

01:44:30.000 Trump got us into no new wars.

01:44:32.000 You think that that's like not a significant thing?

01:44:36.000 And Trump built 450 miles of border wall.

01:44:40.000 And Trump cut immigration by 92%.

01:44:43.000 But why would we vote for him? 1.00

01:44:45.000 Yeah, great question, retard. 1.00

01:44:48.000 Hydro says, and by the way, the guy says, I'm not saying Cruz is great, but he did the same thing as Trump. 0.97

01:44:55.000 You know, the difference is that Cruz sold out Trump when it got bad.

01:45:00.000 Cruz back in 16, I mean, this guy would do anything, say anything, you know, a total political opportunist.

01:45:10.000 He's the same guy now that he was filibustering Obamacare in 2010.

01:45:15.000 Same guy, you know?

01:45:19.000 And he's always been like that.

01:45:20.000 Ted Cruz was backed by the Cato Institute and the Heritage Foundation and the American Enterprise Institute. 1.00

01:45:26.000 He is one of these constitutionalist, libertarian, free market retards. 1.00

01:45:31.000 Just like the rest of them. 0.99

01:45:33.000 Donald Trump, you know, even though in a lot of ways he was captured by the interests, captured by the usual suspects, Israel Lobby and Club for Growth and the Energy Lobby and agriculture and all that, nevertheless, Trump ran as a big government Republican. 0.78

01:45:50.000 He ran as somebody that said, we're going to use the state to benefit the people, use the state to protect American workers from foreign competition, use the state to protect American workers from From migrant workers from south of the border.

01:46:04.000 We're going to use the state to provide people with health care and withdraw troops, you know, in some ways. 0.72

01:46:12.000 You know, whereas Cruz would say, don't use the state to protect Americans, use the state to fight foreign wars.

01:46:18.000 Trump was the inverse.

01:46:20.000 And you're like, well, I'm not saying Cruz was the best.

01:46:25.000 No, you just don't get it.

01:46:26.000 You just don't know anything.

01:46:27.000 You clearly lack judgment.

01:46:29.000 You can't evaluate anything, obviously.

01:46:31.000 You shouldn't say anything about anyone.

01:46:33.000 You shouldn't say anyone is anything.

01:46:34.000 Because you lack discernment here.

01:46:37.000 Yeah, Cruz isn't the best, but him and Trump are the same.

01:46:41.000 Okay, dude.

01:46:42.000 Yeah, whatever.

01:46:43.000 And I guess everyone's the same, right?

01:46:45.000 I guess anybody who tells you something, you know, we just got to take it at face value.

01:46:51.000 Hydro Rise says the lightsaber fights in Clone Wars are some of the best ones in all of Star Wars.

01:46:56.000 My favorite has to be Maul and his brother versus Sidious.

01:47:00.000 Obi Wan fighting Maul while dual wielding was cool, too.

01:47:04.000 No, dude.

01:47:05.000 No.

01:47:06.000 Clone Wars doesn't have the same impact because it's just a cartoon.

01:47:11.000 Oh, what a cool lightsaber fight.

01:47:13.000 It doesn't look cool because the animation is not realistic.

01:47:17.000 You know, there's something about the animation which, you know, it's something that is hard to articulate.

01:47:26.000 But watching two people fight with lightsabers that are real and doing real acrobatics and things compared to watching two cartoon people cartoonishly flipping around.

01:47:38.000 It just does nothing for me.

01:47:39.000 There's no, there's no like awe factor really.

01:47:42.000 So, that's how I feel about it at least.

01:47:48.000 It's cheap.

01:47:49.000 Oh, we drew these cartoons and the movements look, they don't look real.

01:47:54.000 The people don't look real.

01:47:56.000 It's goofy. 1.00

01:47:57.000 It just looks stupid. 0.99

01:47:59.000 I don't, I never liked it. 0.99

01:48:00.000 I never liked that kind of animation.

01:48:03.000 If it was like Pixar level animation, now that would be one thing.

01:48:06.000 If it was like on the, Pixar quality level of animation, maybe it would be different if it was like Toy Story 4 level of animation.

01:48:18.000 What was that other movie about the emotions and then the new movie, that Soul movie?

01:48:24.000 It was on that level of animation, but we're talking about like 2007 DreamWorks tier animation.

01:48:31.000 We're talking about Back to the Barnyard, the television series level of animation.

01:48:38.000 It does nothing for me.

01:48:41.000 Coronado says, Is AFPAC still on?

01:48:43.000 Yes.

01:48:45.000 Sneaky says, You never let us go to the Daily Groyper.

01:48:47.000 You deleted my character on Toontown.

01:48:50.000 Keep it up, Nick.

01:48:53.000 I don't know what that means, but thanks.

01:48:55.000 Pony, I know what Toontown is, but what does the first part mean? 0.96

01:48:58.000 Pony Panda says, I'm sick of Zoomers appropriating millennial culture. 0.93

01:49:02.000 Dragon Ball is a millennial institution.

01:49:05.000 I didn't watch Dragon Ball.

01:49:06.000 AMVs were set to Linkin Park.

01:49:09.000 Not young, lean.

01:49:10.000 I am also a prequel respecter. 0.99

01:49:13.000 No, prequels are for Zoomers.

01:49:15.000 And I didn't watch Dragon Ball Z, but I know Jaden did.

01:49:18.000 And Jaden is younger than me.

01:49:19.000 So, no.

01:49:22.000 You know, you can have Samurai Jack or whatever the hell you people watch.

01:49:22.000 Sorry.

01:49:27.000 You could have. 1.00

01:49:28.000 Samurai Jack and fucking Cat Dog. 1.00

01:49:31.000 You could have Cat Dog, okay? 1.00

01:49:33.000 Millennial, you could have Cat Dog and stupid Samurai Jack, which isn't even good. 1.00

01:49:40.000 And whatever. 1.00

01:49:44.000 What else do millennials like? 0.92

01:49:45.000 I don't even know.

01:49:47.000 Millennials have some cool stuff, but you get your stuff and we get our stuff.

01:49:51.000 I don't know why you have to be an imperialist here.

01:49:53.000 You have a lot of cool stuff too.

01:49:56.000 You have Grunge, you have Blink 182, you have Green Day, you have All Star.

01:50:03.000 You have Shrek.

01:50:04.000 Well, Shrek is kind of a Zoomer thing, too, actually.

01:50:07.000 I take that back.

01:50:08.000 So is Green Day.

01:50:09.000 I'll be taking that back, too.

01:50:11.000 I'll be taking back Green Day.

01:50:13.000 I will be taking back Blink 182.

01:50:17.000 I'm taking some of that back.

01:50:19.000 Green Day.

01:50:20.000 I remember when Green Day was like the biggest thing in the world.

01:50:23.000 It's such a weird thing because now it's like unheard of of like a rock band being the biggest thing.

01:50:28.000 When I was a kid, it was like rock stars were still a thing, Green Day was still huge. 0.99

01:50:36.000 And it wasn't total, like, you know, Negroification of everything. 0.96

01:50:44.000 And there's still some tests, still some tests, white tests in the music, Green Day. 0.97

01:50:50.000 And at every graduation, every, like, ceremony, wedding, graduation, you name it, they would play Good Riddance by Green Day.

01:50:59.000 Do you remember that period in our lives when everything that you would go to was Good Riddance by Green Day?

01:51:06.000 It was a.

01:51:07.000 It was a PowerPoint, or rather, a projector slideshow, picture slideshow set to Good Riddance by Green Day.

01:51:17.000 I'll never forget that for as long as I live.

01:51:20.000 Let's make a slideshow.

01:51:21.000 I'll put it to Good Riddance by Green Day.

01:51:23.000 My mom loved that song.

01:51:26.000 Yeah, I like that song.

01:51:28.000 Can I get that on my iPod Nano?

01:51:32.000 Can I get Good Riddance by Green Day on my iPod Nano?

01:51:35.000 I love that song, yeah.

01:51:37.000 Good times, good times.

01:51:41.000 Green Day was in the Simpsons movie.

01:51:44.000 And Boulevard of Broken Dreams. 0.98

01:51:47.000 Remember when you were black pilled, you would have listened to Boulevard of Broken Dreams? 0.99

01:51:53.000 Anyway. 0.68

01:51:54.000 So, no, no. 1.00

01:51:55.000 You can't have that, millennials. 1.00

01:51:57.000 You can't have that. 1.00

01:51:58.000 You could have.

01:51:59.000 I don't even know what millennial culture is at this point. 0.92

01:52:03.000 You could have BuzzFeed and being gay.

01:52:08.000 And Jon Stewart. 0.96

01:52:08.000 You could have Jon Stewart. 0.96

01:52:10.000 How's that?

01:52:11.000 Sneaky says, You never let us.

01:52:13.000 I just read that one.

01:52:15.000 TKY says, I'm ironically going to say that Knights of the Old Republic is infinitely better than the movies.

01:52:21.000 Okay.

01:52:22.000 Bratpog says, Hey, Nick, quick question.

01:52:24.000 Do you believe in dinosaurs?

01:52:25.000 I read that you don't.

01:52:27.000 You know, I can't really decide, but either way, if dinosaurs are real, I think they were alive at the same time that humans were. 0.99

01:52:36.000 What a dumb question, though. 0.92

01:52:37.000 I mean, imagine believing in dinosaurs. 0.99

01:52:39.000 I'm really on the fence.

01:52:41.000 Because this is what archaeologists do.

01:52:44.000 Archaeologists discover a bone and they're like, well, what if it was like a giant man eating lizard?

01:52:51.000 What if it was like a giant lizard with big teeth and it looked like a big dragon?

01:52:56.000 Really?

01:52:57.000 Oh, I'm, but, but hey, I say the dinosaurs aren't real and I'm the goofy one, right?

01:53:03.000 Archaeologists dig up a bone and they're like, hey, look at this bone.

01:53:07.000 Haha, I bet it was like a giant monster.

01:53:10.000 I bet this was like a giant monster bone.

01:53:13.000 Oh, really?

01:53:14.000 Yeah, and I'm, I'm so anti scientific for doubting it.

01:53:18.000 And all these people, I'm getting a little defensive because everybody's always like, oh, you don't believe in like, you think that like the earth is hollow and like that the, That the sun revolves around the earth and you don't believe in dinosaurs?

01:53:32.000 It's like, no, but I don't know.

01:53:34.000 And I find it hard to believe.

01:53:36.000 And everyone that doesn't, everyone that gives me a hard time about that, it's like, you don't know either.

01:53:43.000 It's like that episode of Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

01:53:45.000 You know, oh, you read a lot of science?

01:53:48.000 People that believe that dinosaurs were real, like it's the gospel.

01:53:54.000 Oh, you really go to a lot of archaeological digs?

01:53:57.000 You're a real archaeologist?

01:54:01.000 Nick, you don't believe in dinosaurs. 1.00

01:54:04.000 Oh my gosh, you're so dumb. 1.00

01:54:06.000 Oh, because you've seen it. 1.00

01:54:08.000 You've seen the bones.

01:54:09.000 You've seen the dinosaur bones.

01:54:12.000 You have seen.

01:54:13.000 Oh, and how do you know that they're dinosaurs?

01:54:15.000 You find these bones.

01:54:17.000 How do you know that they're legit?

01:54:18.000 Oh, they've just got to be giant lizards, right?

01:54:21.000 Giant lizards with big teeth, really?

01:54:24.000 You don't know.

01:54:25.000 Maybe the scientists know, but you definitely don't.

01:54:30.000 So, anyways, I lose my mind a little bit when it comes to these people. 0.98

01:54:33.000 They're so arrogant. 0.98

01:54:34.000 They're so smug. 0.99

01:54:35.000 I'm not an expert.

01:54:36.000 I don't know.

01:54:37.000 I find it hard to believe.

01:54:38.000 That's all I'm saying.

01:54:40.000 People tell me giant monsters roaming the earth.

01:54:43.000 I'm like, yeah, I find that a little bit hard to believe.

01:54:47.000 You find it hard to believe, but they found a big bone.

01:54:50.000 Okay, well, you know, okay, it was giants.

01:54:54.000 It was giants, Cyclops, and, you know, Mothman, and then the Yeti. 0.93

01:55:01.000 That's ridiculous. 0.74

01:55:03.000 Oh, yeah, you're right. 0.98

01:55:04.000 It was dinosaurs.

01:55:05.000 It wasn't cryptids, it was just dinosaurs.

01:55:08.000 So, that stuff bothers me.

01:55:12.000 This used to happen to me in high school.

01:55:14.000 I would argue with all my friends who were Reddit people.

01:55:18.000 All my friends in high school were stoners who read Reddit articles about science. 0.85

01:55:22.000 They were, I fucking love science people that watch Neil deGrasse Tyson videos. 0.93

01:55:27.000 He is so smart. 0.98

01:55:28.000 Oh my gosh.

01:55:29.000 And we would sit around the fire and talk about this kind of stuff.

01:55:33.000 And I would say, like, you know, look, evolution, I find it hard to believe.

01:55:37.000 Okay, you've got rocks, and then they became fish, and then they became geckos, and oh, now I've got a brain, and now I'm looking at you.

01:55:48.000 And now, just as you're sitting here, I'm looking at you and aware of you, and I'm witnessing you.

01:55:53.000 Really?

01:55:54.000 I find that hard to believe.

01:55:55.000 And they're like, and they would get mad about it.

01:55:57.000 They'd be like, what?

01:55:59.000 You don't believe in evolution?

01:56:01.000 What are you kidding me?

01:56:03.000 I'm like, look, I don't know.

01:56:05.000 I'm not a scientist, I don't pretend to know.

01:56:08.000 But, you know, I find it hard to believe that you've got this primordial soup.

01:56:15.000 Oh, and then life comes out of non life, and then it goes from amoebas to super complex organisms that we can't even understand.

01:56:24.000 A human brain, the most complex thing in the universe.

01:56:27.000 Literally, the brain is the most complex thing in the universe.

01:56:32.000 And you get that from an amoeba, and it happens.

01:56:35.000 It's not guided, there's no catalyst for this.

01:56:39.000 It just plays out like this?

01:56:40.000 I mean, like, I find that hard to believe.

01:56:42.000 And they're like, oh, no, you can't.

01:56:44.000 If you say that, you're like this knuckle dragging, you don't read the literature.

01:56:50.000 Oh, and you do?

01:56:51.000 You read a National Geographic article on Reddit for five minutes and you know the secrets of the universe.

01:57:01.000 Anyway, so I get a little defensive about that.

01:57:04.000 You leave me alone.

01:57:05.000 You leave me and my disbelief of dinosaurs alone.

01:57:09.000 Okay?

01:57:14.000 I believe a lot of crazy stuff.

01:57:16.000 Okay? 1.00

01:57:16.000 I'm a little bit out there because I actually do my own thinking, Libtard. 1.00

01:57:20.000 I do my own thinking. 1.00

01:57:22.000 I read.

01:57:25.000 And I do my own thinking. 0.99

01:57:26.000 Anyway, Vispancius says, Your new intro sucks. 0.99

01:57:32.000 Yeah, okay. 1.00

01:57:32.000 You suck. 1.00

01:57:34.000 Black Laser says, I always tell people if they disagree with me or disagree with you or they think you are a fraud that they can always expose you by sending a $5 super chat, calling you out. 1.00

01:57:46.000 They dodge by saying you're either going to be mean or purity spiral out of it.

01:57:49.000 LOL.

01:57:50.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:57:51.000 Well, that's just it.

01:57:52.000 Okay.

01:57:54.000 You've got the silver bullet.

01:57:55.000 Let's read it in the super chat.

01:57:56.000 Never happens.

01:57:57.000 Never happens.

01:57:59.000 Second Dollar says, which is a better driver movie in your opinion?

01:58:02.000 De Niro and Taxi Driver or Gosling and Drive?

01:58:05.000 I like Drive because of the soundtrack and vibes it gives off.

01:58:09.000 The film even inspired Hotline Miami.

01:58:12.000 Definitely Taxi Driver.

01:58:14.000 And they're two totally different movies, but definitely Taxi Driver.

01:58:19.000 Drive is ultimately a story about a guy that simps for a non white woman with a kid, a single mom who is not white.

01:58:29.000 That's what that movie is about. 1.00

01:58:30.000 Taxi Driver is about a guy who is totally fucked up. 0.98

01:58:36.000 A guy who's totally messed up and is so out there and just doesn't know how to get along in society. 0.99

01:58:44.000 A total outcast who is isolated and basically, you know, just starts killing people.

01:58:55.000 You know, not like I endorse that.

01:58:59.000 But, I mean, he's kind of simps too in a certain way.

01:59:04.000 But really, I think it's more about just being directionless and glomming onto something, and it's basically irrational.

01:59:12.000 And it's way cooler.

01:59:15.000 Either way, it's way cooler.

01:59:17.000 It's a way cooler movie.

01:59:19.000 The guy builds this rig.

01:59:22.000 It's a cool movie.

01:59:25.000 And the soundtrack in Taxi Driver is better that jazz soundtrack, which is totally weird.

01:59:34.000 Totally bizarre.

01:59:36.000 Way better than like these indie music, you know, indie songs in Drive.

01:59:41.000 Don't get me wrong, I love the soundtrack for Drive.

01:59:44.000 It's really good.

01:59:46.000 But this like totally weird jazz soundtrack, which is bizarre, and young Jodie Foster and Robert De Niro, and the texture of that movie, it's superior to Drive in every way, in my opinion.

02:00:02.000 I like Drive, but I think it's overrated.

02:00:04.000 Everybody raves about Drive on our side of Twitter.

02:00:07.000 I think it's overrated.

02:00:09.000 I think that American Psycho is pretty good.

02:00:12.000 Out of the meme movies, I like American Psycho.

02:00:16.000 I like Joker.

02:00:17.000 I like Taxi Driver.

02:00:20.000 I think Nightcrawler was pretty good.

02:00:23.000 And the overrated ones, I think that Fight Club is totally overrated. 1.00

02:00:28.000 I think, and, you know, if you really like Fight Club, like, you're probably gay, okay? 0.99

02:00:32.000 And you're probably really a douchebag and not that interesting. 1.00

02:00:36.000 I'm attacking Fight Club, okay? 0.99

02:00:38.000 Not a big fan.

02:00:39.000 Never was a big fan of Fight Club.

02:00:42.000 I don't hate it, but some people that's like their personality.

02:00:46.000 Like, you're not Tyler Durden.

02:00:48.000 You're Ed Norton, okay?

02:00:49.000 You think you're Tyler Durden, but you're really Ed Norton in that movie.

02:00:54.000 I think Fight Club is overrated.

02:00:56.000 I think Drive is overrated.

02:00:57.000 I think American Psycho is even a little bit overrated, but I do like it a lot.

02:01:04.000 What are the other meme movies?

02:01:06.000 There's a few.

02:01:06.000 I feel like there's others that I'm not thinking of.

02:01:14.000 Maybe like Wolf of Wall Street, pretty overrated.

02:01:19.000 I feel like I'm missing one.

02:01:22.000 But, yeah, off the top of my head, that's what I have to say on that subject.

02:01:27.000 This show is never going to end.

02:01:28.000 It's almost 11 o'clock.

02:01:30.000 Cole Mann says, Hello, Nick.

02:01:32.000 I am a 14 year old Cuban orphan, and I too love Matt Gaetz.

02:01:36.000 I love him very much.

02:01:37.000 That's funny.

02:01:40.000 Winston says, I should save this for tomorrow, but here goes.

02:01:43.000 We need to be concerned with American affairs first.

02:01:46.000 But I'm frustrated with Groypers who completely forego concerns about China.

02:01:51.000 We're in an asymmetrical war against globalists, and China is a big enemy in this fight.

02:01:55.000 Never forget. 0.91

02:01:56.000 Dominion voting was ruled over by China and the European Union.

02:01:59.000 No, I disagree entirely.

02:02:01.000 I disagree entirely.

02:02:02.000 I'm at the point where I almost don't even oppose China or Russia or any of these countries because the American regime is the enemy of the American people.

02:02:15.000 And insofar as the power of the American regime is diminished relative to these other powers, that is a good thing for us. 0.55

02:02:26.000 If the American regime's ability to project power in the world is diminished, Decreases relatively, that is a good thing for us. 0.83

02:02:34.000 Why should I oppose China? 0.95

02:02:36.000 On what grounds should I oppose China?

02:02:40.000 And the Biden administration is now pivoting to oppose China.

02:02:45.000 Everyone calls him Beijing Biden, but they are adjusting their security posture against China. 0.89

02:02:52.000 So it's not to say the Chinese aren't infiltrating our government, but. 0.97

02:02:58.000 You know, when you look at Russia, when you look at China, it's a matter of lesser of two evils. 0.93

02:03:07.000 The American regime is the biggest threat to the American people. 0.53

02:03:12.000 And insofar as they have unmitigated ability to project power globally, that's a problem for us because then they control the global institutions.

02:03:25.000 They can project power across the globe, except for in these countries like Russia and China.

02:03:32.000 It would be great. 0.68

02:03:34.000 For American dissidents, if China had an umbrella of protection in the Pacific theater.

02:03:43.000 You know, if you could move to a country in the Pacific or in East Asia and be under the umbrella of Chinese hegemony and not have to fear the arm of the American regime, that's a good thing.

02:03:58.000 And if the Chinese or the Russians could build up certain systems, whether it be technology or otherwise, Where you can exist being blacklisted from the American system, that's a good thing for American dissidents.

02:04:13.000 What if there were no social media companies, no payment processors, if there was no financial system outside of the American system?

02:04:24.000 If you were an American dissident, you would be screwed.

02:04:28.000 I mean, where would Edward Snowden go? 0.96

02:04:30.000 And where would Telegram be headquartered?

02:04:33.000 And where would Tencent be headquartered?

02:04:35.000 Where would all these different things be?

02:04:38.000 If the American regime ruled the world.

02:04:40.000 So, no, I completely disagree.

02:04:42.000 I completely disagree. 0.98

02:04:44.000 This anti China stuff is a big fucking distraction. 0.98

02:04:47.000 And you want to know why it is? 0.98

02:04:49.000 It's because the neocons are on board with it, and the Democrats are on board with it, and the Republicans are on board with it.

02:04:55.000 The Republicans are gung ho about opposing China.

02:05:00.000 And that's a big diversion.

02:05:02.000 The enemy is not, you know, China, frankly, has never done anything to hurt me, ever, in my entire life.

02:05:11.000 But the American regime has deplatformed me from everything.

02:05:15.000 They have, you know, if I wasn't really smart, they would have ruined my life by now. 0.77

02:05:20.000 I've been banned from PayPal, which is part of the American regime. 0.99

02:05:22.000 They're a fucking bank, basically, right? 0.96

02:05:25.000 And they handle 92% of all the payment gateways on the internet. 0.99

02:05:28.000 American.

02:05:30.000 And I've been banned from Stripe.

02:05:31.000 And I've been banned from Facebook and Instagram.

02:05:33.000 American.

02:05:34.000 And I've been banned from, you know, other payment processors and run into problems with lots of different American back end services.

02:05:43.000 And who is it that's prosecuting the people from the Capitol siege?

02:05:48.000 Who is it that threw Baked Alaska in jail?

02:05:50.000 The American intelligence.

02:05:52.000 FBI and the American DOJ.

02:05:56.000 And it's the American administration that's prosecuting all these people.

02:06:00.000 It'll be the American IRS that's going to go after conservative nonprofits and audit conservative leaders.

02:06:08.000 It's going to be the American regime that puts up an agency of misinformation and anti racism and all this. 0.64

02:06:15.000 And it's going to be American law enforcement that's going to persecute all this stuff or prosecute all this stuff, not China.

02:06:22.000 China, as far as I'm concerned, has nothing to do with it.

02:06:25.000 And same with Russia and same with Iran and any of these countries. 0.95

02:06:29.000 I honestly could not be bothered about Uyghurs or the elections in Belarus or Ukrainian sovereignty or Navalny or any of this shit because we are being persecuted by the regime that occupies this country first and foremost. 0.97

02:06:51.000 So I totally disagree with you. 0.92

02:06:54.000 I think you're wrong about that. 0.97

02:06:58.000 We need to be concerned about China. 0.92

02:07:00.000 Why? 0.98

02:07:01.000 Why should we be concerned about China? 0.97

02:07:03.000 China, we have got a regime that is flying the flag of gay and trans and BLM in American embassies, but we should be worried about China. 0.92

02:07:14.000 Really? 0.82

02:07:17.000 I disagree.

02:07:18.000 Cole Mann says, I just read that.

02:07:21.000 Kevin Brose says, I believe you're referring to kibbutz.

02:07:24.000 Yep, it's an historically agrarian Jewish society going far back as the 1900s.

02:07:29.000 I've always wondered why Sam Francis disappeared.

02:07:32.000 Well, he died. 0.92

02:07:33.000 Dinesh, the dirty Indian D'Souza, lied on Sam Francis, characterizing him as a racist and got him fired from the Washington Times. 0.99

02:07:41.000 Wow, yep. 0.99

02:07:43.000 Yes, he did.

02:07:44.000 Never apologized for it.

02:07:46.000 That's a little known story.

02:07:47.000 I'm glad you brought that up.

02:07:48.000 A lot of people don't know about that. 0.61

02:07:50.000 But you're right, it is the kibbutz.

02:07:52.000 That's what I was referring to.

02:07:54.000 Sam Yule says Hey, Nick, asking for your opinion is YAF as bad as Turning Point, or is one better than the other?

02:08:00.000 Turning Point is better than YAF. 0.54

02:08:03.000 Huey Long, respecter, says, Remember last summer when Matt Gaetz was arguing with a black senator about Gaetz having a black son while BLM was burning down our cities? 0.99

02:08:13.000 He's at best a fool that is easily distracted. 0.98

02:08:15.000 Yeah, I did forget about that, but you're right. 1.00

02:08:19.000 Baguette Groyper says, I have an IQ of 90 and was unironically comparing acting as a class retard to being the leader of America first.

02:08:29.000 Not sure what you mean by that. 0.73

02:08:31.000 Summer says, Bronze Age pervert wrote that conservatives should embrace Darwinism because it supports race realism. 0.93

02:08:37.000 Is science and the Enlightenment something we should embrace in the future, or is it still gay? 0.99

02:08:41.000 God bless. 1.00

02:08:44.000 Well, here's the problem.

02:08:46.000 It's not science because science is ancient and metaphysics is science and religion is science.

02:08:54.000 When you're talking about theology, it is a branch of science.

02:08:58.000 And in antiquity, they considered philosophy science.

02:09:01.000 Now, science means the natural sciences.

02:09:04.000 Now, science means chemistry and biology and physics and all of that.

02:09:10.000 It used to mean lots of things.

02:09:13.000 Now, we're not against the scientific method and we're not against the natural sciences, but we're against natural science and materialism as an ideology.

02:09:21.000 Which is what it's become.

02:09:23.000 And initially, it was the church that was doing the science.

02:09:27.000 It was a church that was doing all the science the natural science and the other sciences.

02:09:33.000 And it's been hijacked now.

02:09:34.000 And now, science means when people say we believe in science, it's a religious statement.

02:09:40.000 We are atheists and we believe in what people in lab coats that are funded by the government tell us.

02:09:47.000 That's what that means.

02:09:49.000 Embrace science.

02:09:50.000 I'm not anti science, I'm against these.

02:09:53.000 The dogmatic positions of academics who basically, you know, are not, their credentials mean nothing because these universities are terrible. 0.99

02:10:04.000 And either way, their research is bullshit. 0.98

02:10:08.000 Alltype has a really good paper about this, about how research is basically junk. 0.99

02:10:13.000 And, you know, all this research is being pumped out. 0.52

02:10:18.000 It's all fluff.

02:10:19.000 None of it makes sense. 1.00

02:10:20.000 It's junk. 0.99

02:10:21.000 The people that write it are not qualified. 0.99

02:10:23.000 And what's more, The people that are churning out the research are paid.

02:10:27.000 They're paid by nonprofits.

02:10:30.000 They're paid by universities.

02:10:31.000 They're paid by the interests.

02:10:33.000 And so they've created this I know I'm not the first one to say this, but this religion.

02:10:38.000 That's why you see on these signs in people's lawns, they say, We believe BLM matters.

02:10:45.000 It's like the Nicene Creed.

02:10:46.000 We believe that black lives matter.

02:10:48.000 We believe that women's rights are human rights.

02:10:50.000 We believe that a woman has a right to choose to do with her body, whatever.

02:10:55.000 We believe in science.

02:10:56.000 And when they say we believe in science, what does that mean?

02:11:00.000 Does that mean that they really have a scientific disposition?

02:11:03.000 Does that mean that they read about race and IQ?

02:11:05.000 Does that mean that they read about all that?

02:11:09.000 Or does it mean that they accept dogmatically what they're told by pop scientists on TV about climate change, about these kinds of things, these globalist agendas?

02:11:23.000 So, no.

02:11:26.000 People that say that just don't understand the criticism of science.

02:11:30.000 We're pro science, but what are we really talking about here?

02:11:33.000 Are we talking about an atheist worldview being pushed by globalist bureaucrats, credentialist bureaucrats, or are we talking about science, right?

02:11:44.000 Big difference. 0.85

02:11:47.000 And I would point out the Bronze Age pervert is an atheist and a hedonist. 0.99

02:11:52.000 So I don't know why we would be listening to him. 0.99

02:11:54.000 I mean, all the cleverness in the world that's not going to get away from reality and what is true, which is God.

02:12:04.000 You know, people want to be so clever.

02:12:06.000 All these secular people want to be so clever. 0.97

02:12:09.000 But there's no replacement for the real truth.

02:12:14.000 All your cleverness, all your academic arguments, and then, you know, he's probably more well read than me because he's an academic.

02:12:21.000 But all of that pales in comparison to the truth.

02:12:27.000 So, well, we should embrace this because this is a really clever political thing.

02:12:31.000 Yeah, well, it's not reality.

02:12:34.000 Huey Long, Respector.

02:12:36.000 I read that one.

02:12:38.000 Okay, let's see.

02:12:39.000 We're moving on to our last page here.

02:12:43.000 Hydro says Newsmax thinks they can hire a bunch of old Fox News employees and pass themselves off as a true conservative news outlet.

02:12:51.000 We see what they're doing and no one is falling for it.

02:12:53.000 Yeah, drop Newsmax. 1.00

02:12:54.000 I like Michelle Malkin. 1.00

02:12:55.000 That's it. 0.99

02:12:56.000 That's the only one I like on there.

02:12:59.000 Jay Bucks says Went to go get groceries today without masks like always. 0.99

02:13:03.000 In the fall, nobody gave me shit. 0.99

02:13:05.000 This time, all the henchmen are hunting me down the moment I enter. 0.99

02:13:08.000 I have AirPods in, ignoring.

02:13:10.000 Employees hate me.

02:13:12.000 Finally, manager tries to tell me to get out. 0.96

02:13:14.000 I go through self checkout with black lady yelling in my ear, Go in four times sneezing. 1.00

02:13:20.000 That is hilarious. 1.00

02:13:21.000 Hey, good for you, man. 1.00

02:13:22.000 And you could probably get away with it because you're black. 1.00

02:13:26.000 If you're white, I mean, they would call in the National Guard. 0.98

02:13:29.000 We've got an insurrectionist over here. 1.00

02:13:31.000 Kill him. 1.00

02:13:32.000 But they just yell at you. 1.00

02:13:33.000 I'm surprised they even yell at you because you're black. 1.00

02:13:35.000 But hey, good for you, man. 1.00

02:13:36.000 That's hilarious.

02:13:38.000 Yeah, don't let them get away with this.

02:13:41.000 We have to make their lives difficult.

02:13:43.000 All these people that are going to enforce it.

02:13:45.000 Remind them that they're not patriots. 0.99

02:13:47.000 You're a slave. 1.00

02:13:48.000 You're fake. 1.00

02:13:52.000 Don't get in trouble with the law.

02:13:53.000 You saw what happened to that guy in Texas. 1.00

02:13:56.000 Some faggot cop goes into this gas station, sees the guy not wearing a mask, and threatens to blow his head off. 1.00

02:14:05.000 So I don't want anybody to get arrested, but where you think you could take a stand, it's not a bad idea. 1.00

02:14:13.000 Babe and Baby says, imagine, or I'm sorry, That wasn't Kevin Bro.

02:14:18.000 Kevin Bro is the next Super Chat. 1.00

02:14:20.000 He's black. 1.00

02:14:21.000 J Bucks, I don't think, is black. 1.00

02:14:23.000 I got those two mixed up. 1.00

02:14:26.000 Babe and Baby says Imagine if Helen Keller got COVID. 0.65

02:14:29.000 Then she could smell or taste either.

02:14:32.000 Yeah, true.

02:14:33.000 Kevin Bro says Yang was the only Democrat sympathetic to anyone right of center, often centering the slander of right wing extremism as a misplaced anger at one's economic despair.

02:14:43.000 When critical race theory became the staple of the Democratic primary, he called Trump a white supremacist and now supports BLM.

02:14:50.000 Very, very well put. 0.89

02:14:52.000 It kind of goes to show the limits of this left right populist alliance.

02:14:57.000 You know, Yang tried and look what happened.

02:14:59.000 They said, white nationalists are supporting you. 1.00

02:15:01.000 And Yang said, I disavow them and they won't get the money and Trump is a racist and I'm glad this fucker got impeached. 1.00

02:15:08.000 Right? 1.00

02:15:10.000 And how long did that take?

02:15:12.000 So, and Steve Bannon was like soy facing over that.

02:15:15.000 He's not wearing a tie at the debate.

02:15:17.000 He's not wearing a necktie at the debate.

02:15:19.000 This is amazing.

02:15:20.000 Steve Bannon said that.

02:15:21.000 Everyone tweeted that he was going crazy over that.

02:15:24.000 He said, not left or right, but forward.

02:15:26.000 Yeah.

02:15:26.000 And then the minute that they got on his case because white people supported him, white conservatives, white nationalists are supporting your campaign.

02:15:35.000 And he disavowed everybody.

02:15:37.000 And, you know, he went, he became another leftist.

02:15:40.000 And then he crashed and burned.

02:15:42.000 I remember.

02:15:45.000 Polish American Groyper says, ah, the word that I meant wasn't haiku, but hiatus.

02:15:49.000 I am sorry. 0.99

02:15:50.000 I think I might be retarded. 1.00

02:15:52.000 What are your thoughts on the squatty potty? 1.00

02:15:54.000 It's very good.

02:15:55.000 I recommend it.

02:15:57.000 Huffrum says, in my opinion, more people should tune in to watch Jaden when he streams.

02:16:01.000 He is a great guy.

02:16:02.000 I agree.

02:16:03.000 I enjoy his streams on Trovo.

02:16:05.000 Trovo, what is the link?

02:16:08.000 But check him out on Trovo.

02:16:10.000 We love his streams.

02:16:12.000 Really, really a great guy. 0.98

02:16:14.000 Fat Gay Retard says, sincere apologies if this has been asked a million times, but since the website seems to be down, how do we watch or subscribe for missed shows? 0.86

02:16:23.000 Well, you're just going to have to wait, actually. 0.52

02:16:27.000 Sneaky says the belt, yoba, and knicker.

02:16:31.000 I don't know what that means.

02:16:32.000 Kevin Bros is my millennial sister.

02:16:36.000 Almost spit out her coffee. 1.00

02:16:37.000 She's totally melting.

02:16:38.000 Shrek was 2001.

02:16:40.000 Nick, stick with your cringe high school musical and Danny Ghost or whatever you kids watch these days.

02:16:45.000 I want no smoke, Nick.

02:16:46.000 She's all yours.

02:16:47.000 Look, just because it came out in 2001, the legacy, the legacy of Shrek.

02:16:53.000 Because we watched when we were kids.

02:16:55.000 Yeah, it came out in 2001, but it was a big movie.

02:16:59.000 It was a big movie, and even though I was born in 98, people were still watching Shrek in 2004.

02:17:04.000 And Shrek 2 came out, and arguably, Shrek 2 was bigger than Shrek 1.

02:17:10.000 And Shrek 2 came out later, and the video game, which I had on PlayStation 2, we all played, and we all watched Shrek 2.

02:17:17.000 And I had a Shrek the third birthday party in sixth grade.

02:17:21.000 And, you know, people like Braylon Levine are big Shrek fans, and all the TikTok people are big on Shrek. 0.97

02:17:28.000 Shrek is a big meme for Zoomers, it's a cultural artifact from the early 2000s.

02:17:33.000 You are a 90s kid, you are literally a 90s kid.

02:17:36.000 Stick to Cat Dog and what you know best.

02:17:38.000 We get, maybe you can have Shrek, we can share Shrek, but you get Cat Dog, and we don't.

02:17:45.000 Okay, we get SpongeBob and we get Shrek and we get Star Wars, and you could have Cat Dog and you could have Courage the Cowardly Dog and, you know, Dexter's Laboratory, whatever, Samurai Jack.

02:17:58.000 Okay, you could have Even Stevens and Phil of the Future.

02:18:03.000 Yeah, that's all you.

02:18:07.000 We could share Shrek, maybe.

02:18:09.000 I'm not going to give it up.

02:18:10.000 Look, I'm one of the oldest Zoomers in existence, and I am a Zoomer comfortably, but I am one of the older ones.

02:18:17.000 And I will fight for the Zoomers' right.

02:18:19.000 I will fight on their behalf for Shrek. 0.99

02:18:21.000 Some of these younger Zoomers that were born yesterday, I'll fight on their behalf for the legacy of Shrek from 20 years ago. 1.00

02:18:27.000 I'll do it. 1.00

02:18:28.000 You're an all star, okay?

02:18:31.000 One of my favorite songs of all time, All Star.

02:18:35.000 And it's so true.

02:18:38.000 Anyway, so Kevin, look, I love you.

02:18:41.000 And your sister sounds awesome, but she's just wrong about this.

02:18:44.000 I love millennials, but you can't have Shrek.

02:18:47.000 You can't have it.

02:18:48.000 It's ours.

02:18:49.000 I mean, we could share it maybe, but you just can't take this kind of stuff from Zoomers.

02:18:54.000 It's very disheartening.

02:18:55.000 It's very demoralizing that you would try that.

02:18:59.000 You know, we have had to experience far more than you.

02:19:03.000 You guys grew up in the 90s when there were cool things happening in schools.

02:19:08.000 And, you know, and you would show up in school in like baggy clothes and like frosted tips and cool times.

02:19:17.000 And now kids go to school and they watch Steven Universe talk about how white privilege, drought history is. 1.00

02:19:23.000 You know, marginalizing trannies. 1.00

02:19:25.000 So, you know, you got to check your millennial privilege. 1.00

02:19:28.000 I hate it.

02:19:29.000 It's kind of a stale meme, but it's not a meme.

02:19:31.000 It's true.

02:19:32.000 You guys had it pretty good.

02:19:33.000 So just let us have some of this stuff here.

02:19:37.000 Sanja says one cool thing from the 80s was yuppie culture.

02:19:41.000 Trump personified it well.

02:19:42.000 Yeah, very true.

02:19:44.000 Ask Royper says AFPAC, more like ASPAC.

02:19:49.000 I don't think Patrick Casey's going, so it's definitely not going to be an ASPAC.

02:19:53.000 It's going to be just a regular old AFPAC this year.

02:19:56.000 Ryan B says, This article is all you need.

02:19:58.000 Great sources.

02:19:59.000 Dinosaurs are fake.

02:20:01.000 Atlanteanconspiracy.com.

02:20:04.000 Oh, yeah, that sounds legit.

02:20:07.000 Rad Trad Groyper says, Blessed feast of the presentation of our Lord and of the purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

02:20:15.000 Okay. 0.99

02:20:16.000 Earl says, Avatar is overrated and gay and cringe. 1.00

02:20:19.000 I don't know if I go that far. 0.99

02:20:21.000 Earl says, Millennials have Cinnamon Challenge, Zoomers have Tide Pod Challenge. 1.00

02:20:27.000 I'm going to claim Cinnamon Challenge too because I remember it. 0.99

02:20:30.000 We have Harlem Shake.

02:20:32.000 You guys can have planking or whatever.

02:20:36.000 Okay, I think that's the last one.

02:20:39.000 No, we got two more.

02:20:41.000 Monk says, You are so wrong about China. 1.00

02:20:43.000 It's so dumb of you. 0.99

02:20:44.000 China hasn't done anything to us. 0.99

02:20:46.000 Trump is literally the guy who put the threat from China on the map, not liberals or neocons.

02:20:51.000 Yeah, but liberals and neocons ate it up.

02:20:54.000 Liberals and neocons recalibrated, and now they're against China.

02:20:59.000 And it's not hard to see.

02:21:01.000 Now they want to win the 5G race, and now they want to fight to keep Taiwan sovereign, Taiwan, Taiwan, whatever.

02:21:12.000 And all of that. 0.99

02:21:13.000 No, so you're wrong and you're dumb. 1.00

02:21:16.000 You're the dumb one here. 1.00

02:21:17.000 Yeah, Trump put it on the map in the context of trade, and he's right about trade. 0.99

02:21:22.000 But as far as China being a big threat, I mean, why do you think the neocons ate this up?

02:21:28.000 See, this is what you don't seem to understand.

02:21:31.000 The neocons are never going to push something that is good for you.

02:21:35.000 When all these people say Beijing Biden, they are never going to say something that is useful for you and for us.

02:21:42.000 That is the surest sign. 0.93

02:21:44.000 When NATO and the fucking military and the left and the right are all coming together to push it, it's not like, gee, what a coincidence. 0.97

02:21:53.000 This time they're all pushing something that's good for me. 0.98

02:21:57.000 Uh, no.

02:21:58.000 That never happens.

02:22:00.000 So, no, I disagree. 0.57

02:22:04.000 China, look, China is an adversary of America.

02:22:04.000 I disagree.

02:22:08.000 No doubt about it. 0.87

02:22:10.000 China is a military adversary, an economic adversary.

02:22:15.000 But here's what you don't understand.

02:22:17.000 It's that they are an adversary to the American regime.

02:22:22.000 The Chinese Communist Party that runs China is an adversary of the American regime that runs America.

02:22:29.000 We are in America.

02:22:31.000 And the American regime is an adversary of American dissidents. 0.99

02:22:35.000 Now, that is not to say that China is our friend, but it is to say that I am not about to tag team with the fucking American regime that is bringing. 0.99

02:22:45.000 Hell to our doorstep, literally, to take on China. 1.00

02:22:49.000 Hey, you know, the FBI might break my door in and break all my shit and kill my dog and take all my money and, you know, kill my family and throw me in jail. 1.00

02:22:49.000 Yeah. 1.00

02:22:59.000 But Uncle Sam says, roll up our sleeves. 1.00

02:23:03.000 It's time to kill the gooks. 1.00

02:23:04.000 Yeah. 1.00

02:23:05.000 Not going to fucking happen. 0.99

02:23:06.000 Not going to happen. 1.00

02:23:08.000 Fuck Alexei Navalny, CIA dog. 1.00

02:23:11.000 Fuck American imperialists, scum. 1.00

02:23:14.000 This American regime. 1.00

02:23:15.000 They're Satanists.

02:23:17.000 Look at what they push in the world. 0.99

02:23:18.000 Gay marriage and, you know, Negroes of the world unite.

02:23:23.000 Really?

02:23:25.000 Yeah, but let's stand in solidarity with that.

02:23:28.000 Yeah, you want to fight China so bad? 0.96

02:23:30.000 Go join the draft. 0.98

02:23:31.000 Go join the draft and go fight in China. 0.79

02:23:35.000 Seriously. 0.99

02:23:36.000 Go fight for the sovereignty of Taiwan and China if you really believe all this flag waving bullshit. 1.00

02:23:41.000 Go sign up for the gay tranny military and, you know, go defend the gay faggot U.S. embassy, BLM embassy in Taiwan. 1.00

02:23:51.000 From China, if you really believe in that. 1.00

02:23:53.000 And then you get back home and they're going to court martial you for being a Trump supporter.

02:23:57.000 Yeah. 0.97

02:23:59.000 And I'm the goof, right? 0.99

02:24:01.000 I'm dumb for thinking that. 0.99

02:24:02.000 Well, but Trump started it. 0.99

02:24:03.000 Yeah.

02:24:03.000 And it was about jobs and it was about trade.

02:24:06.000 That's not why, you know, do you see them really?

02:24:08.000 Is it really about trade with them?

02:24:10.000 Are they going to continue the trade war with China?

02:24:13.000 No.

02:24:14.000 They didn't want to continue the trade war under Trump and they're going to end the trade war under China.

02:24:19.000 But they are going to keep up.

02:24:21.000 Everything else.

02:24:21.000 They are going to keep up the defense posture and this recalibrated national security apparatus.

02:24:26.000 They're completing and fulfilling Obama's pivot to Asia.

02:24:29.000 They brought in the Obama era officials that drafted the pivot to Asia, which wasn't very successful, but they're putting them in with Biden.

02:24:37.000 And it was in the news the other day.

02:24:40.000 They're reallocating their resources from the Middle East to focus on China. 0.76

02:24:45.000 And the Myanmar thing is going to be, I mean, that's going to be the first test of it. 0.92

02:24:50.000 We'll see how that goes. 1.00

02:24:51.000 But, you know, it just makes me crazy because it's like.

02:24:56.000 The American regime is persecuting you.

02:25:00.000 And, you know, I didn't understand this for a long time, so I can't even really blame you because I didn't get it for a long time either.

02:25:07.000 But it's just simply, it's like just this simple.

02:25:12.000 The American regime, as they are all, the problem is this the American regime is all powerful in this country.

02:25:21.000 And this is particularly pernicious because America leads the world order.

02:25:27.000 It is an American led system.

02:25:29.000 It is an American led global financial, trade, and political system.

02:25:34.000 You know, up until very, very recently, it was America that controlled the world political and diplomatic institutions like the UN.

02:25:43.000 It was America that controlled the financial global institutions like the IMF and the World Bank and the World Trade Organization.

02:25:51.000 It's the American dollar and petrodollar that run the economy.

02:25:55.000 It's the American internet.

02:25:57.000 That runs the internet, American Hollywood and media that runs the world until very, very recently.

02:26:03.000 And insofar as our personal enemies are in charge of America, they're not only in charge of the national security apparatus and the intelligence agencies and big tech and the Ivy League schools and the bureaucracy and the permanent state and the parties and so on, but that power apparatus runs the global institutions.

02:26:26.000 That power apparatus Look up what an extradition treaty is.

02:26:30.000 That power apparatus has a pull in every embassy around the world, except for a dozen former communist countries like Venezuela, or current communist countries Venezuela and Cuba and Russia and Kazakhstan and Belarus and Uzbekistan and Iran and China and North Korea.

02:26:51.000 And insofar as our enemies run the global system, they can not only destroy us here, but they could destroy us anywhere in the globe.

02:27:02.000 And there's nowhere to escape to, and there's no alternate system. 0.76

02:27:06.000 So, as long as whoever it is China, Russia, Iran, it really doesn't matter as long as these powers are rising relative to American power, it is a benefit to American dissidents.

02:27:20.000 Edward Snowden was able to get political asylum in Russia.

02:27:26.000 If it was the 1990s and Russia was totally chaotic and totally vulnerable, and it was under Boris Yeltsin.

02:27:33.000 Do you think Edward Snowden could seek political asylum in Russia?

02:27:36.000 He couldn't. 0.99

02:27:37.000 Because America would put their big, disgusting Jewish thumbs in Russia's eyes and they would say, Meh, you know, give us Edward Snowden back or we're going to rape your country to death. 0.99

02:27:49.000 And they'd have to give him up. 1.00

02:27:51.000 They'd have to give him back.

02:27:52.000 And there's nowhere for Edward Snowden to go.

02:27:55.000 Right? 0.86

02:27:56.000 And if all this tech censorship was going on 20 years ago, 30 years ago, Chinese alternative. 0.88

02:28:04.000 There would be no Russian alternative. 0.78

02:28:06.000 No Emirati.

02:28:07.000 Telegram is headquartered in the Emirates.

02:28:09.000 There would be no Emirati social media alternative. 0.68

02:28:12.000 You'd have America and no alternative system. 0.85

02:28:15.000 It's like, how can people not understand that?

02:28:17.000 We want America to control 5G.

02:28:19.000 That's another big battleground of Sino American relations the race for 5G coverage.

02:28:26.000 And 5G is achieving dominance in Europe.

02:28:29.000 Chinese 5G is achieving dominance in Europe.

02:28:32.000 Well, we want America to have dominance in 5G.

02:28:35.000 Why?

02:28:36.000 So that American companies can disallow us from using it?

02:28:41.000 Like, do you see what I'm saying?

02:28:43.000 America wins the race for 5G.

02:28:46.000 And who controls it?

02:28:47.000 These American institutions that ban us from everything?

02:28:50.000 Yeah, that's awesome. 1.00

02:28:51.000 Take that, China. 0.96

02:28:53.000 We won the race for 5G, and now you can't have an internet service provider, right? 0.96

02:28:58.000 Now you can't have internet access.

02:29:00.000 You see what I'm saying?

02:29:01.000 And, you know, that's not totally outside the realm of possibility.

02:29:05.000 Nobody's talking about that, getting banned from 5G, but you understand what I'm saying. 0.88

02:29:11.000 Yeah, let's beat the Chinese system so that America can lead the system and we can remain unwelcome from the American led system run by people like Stacey Abrams and Kamala Harris and P. Buttigieg, right? 0.97

02:29:23.000 I mean, that's the problem. 0.95

02:29:26.000 And look, I'm not. 0.94

02:29:27.000 I mean, you come at me really hard and you're calling me dumb and everything. 0.99

02:29:30.000 You're just naive. 0.99

02:29:31.000 And people that don't get this, it's like you got to take them and shake them awake.

02:29:35.000 You got to get out of this mentality.

02:29:38.000 When it comes to America, there's no us, there's no country here, there's no unified whole.

02:29:44.000 What does that mean?

02:29:45.000 American, I hate to break it to you, but there's a difference between the American sovereign regime and the American people. 0.82

02:29:55.000 It's not we Americans against those Chinese. 0.58

02:29:58.000 It's the people that run America versus the people that run China. 0.94

02:30:01.000 It's the Chinese Communist Party regime against the American regime. 0.88

02:30:05.000 And there's no us between you and your neighbors. 0.79

02:30:07.000 There's no us between us and BLM.

02:30:09.000 Trump supporters and people that want to throw us in jail for being insurrectionists.

02:30:13.000 There's no we there.

02:30:14.000 So we have got to think now in terms of power projection.

02:30:19.000 And I don't want to get too into this because it's like a tricky thing, but that is the dynamic at work here.

02:30:26.000 That's the dynamic.

02:30:27.000 That's a thought process at work here is that.

02:30:31.000 The American regime is now betraying the Constitution.

02:30:35.000 It's abridging civil liberties.

02:30:37.000 It's targeting political dissidents.

02:30:40.000 And insofar as it's doing that, it is good when the American regime is diminished in its global posture.

02:30:47.000 Because, you know, any other country, any other country filling that vacuum would be people that it is their priority to destroy us because political dissent is a challenge to their rule in America.

02:31:01.000 It's as simple as that.

02:31:02.000 I'm explaining to you just a very basic.

02:31:05.000 Phenomenon about political power and how this works in the world.

02:31:09.000 I'm not trying to oppose the government.

02:31:11.000 I'm not trying to oppose the American government.

02:31:14.000 Let the record show that I'm not sponsored by foreign entities.

02:31:18.000 I'm not involved with foreign entities at all.

02:31:21.000 But I'm saying that the American regime persecutes American dissidents.

02:31:26.000 It is just a descriptive fact that as America's rivals rise up, this is just descriptive, American dissidents are able to seek refuge in alternate.

02:31:37.000 Global systems like a Chinese alternative economic system or something like that.

02:31:44.000 That's the point I'm trying to make.

02:31:46.000 And the neocons and the hawks that are pushing this, they're not going to push something that's good for you.

02:31:50.000 People are like, oh, well, Netflix pushing this hedge fund documentary.

02:31:54.000 Well, this time it's good for us.

02:31:56.000 Netflix usually pushes pornography and sexualizing our kids, but this time they're pushing something good.

02:32:03.000 Neocons usually push wars for interests that don't benefit us, but this time they're right.

02:32:09.000 I mean, like, what are you thinking? 0.97

02:32:11.000 Anyway, so that's a little bit more of a thorough explanation that, you know, that you don't really understand.

02:32:21.000 Florio, so just my thoughts, and someone brought up Darwinism.

02:32:24.000 You should have a chat with Jay Dyer about Darwinism, alien, psyop, scientism.

02:32:29.000 I think it would be great.

02:32:30.000 Look, I don't know that much about this stuff, I don't know that much about esoteric things like aliens.

02:32:36.000 So I'm not really the guy to talk to.

02:32:41.000 Um,.

02:32:42.000 Okay.

02:32:42.000 TKY says, I hate to say it, but millennials have the first two seasons of Pokemon.

02:32:47.000 I don't watch Pokemon.

02:32:48.000 Temple OS says, Vanguard Zoomers had the best series growing up Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Harry Potter.

02:32:55.000 We own watching Shrek on Fridays in school at no classwork.

02:32:58.000 So true. 0.98

02:33:01.000 Harry Potter sucks, though. 0.97

02:33:03.000 I don't want Harry Potter. 1.00

02:33:04.000 Millennials can have Harry Potter.

02:33:07.000 Rabbi Groypers says, Great show.

02:33:09.000 Take this money.

02:33:09.000 Get yourself a Whopper.

02:33:11.000 Claim your Burger King crown.

02:33:13.000 Nah, Burger King is cringe.

02:33:14.000 Hardcore iron noobs, his war with China will be nothing but a meat grinder, and they'll be happy to send every patriotic fighting age male ad at that is no accident. 0.59

02:33:22.000 Exactly right.

02:33:23.000 And Biden will do it.

02:33:24.000 I'm sure Biden will take us to war in China, no problem.

02:33:28.000 That's not a prediction, but he would.

02:33:31.000 Okay, that's your last super chat.
