America First - Nicholas J. Fuentes - Hollywood's Pedophile Problem | America First Ep. 205

00:00:01.000 Good evening, everybody.

00:00:02.000 You are watching America First.

00:00:04.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.

00:00:05.000 We've got a great show for you tonight.

00:00:08.000 Lots to discuss, lots to talk about tonight.

00:00:11.000 We are excited.

00:00:12.000 We are back.

00:00:13.000 It's good to be back on the show this week.

00:00:17.000 You know, I got to tell you, on Friday, I tend to hit the wall a little bit.

00:00:20.000 I don't know if you can tell, but by the end of the two hour mark on the show on Friday, you can see I start to get a little bit tired.

00:00:29.000 So it's always great to be back on Monday when we're high energy.

00:00:33.000 Refreshed, excited for another big week of the greatest show in the country right now.

00:00:38.000 So, we're having a good time.

00:00:41.000 There is lots to discuss tonight.

00:00:43.000 We're going to be talking about James Gunn, of course, and many others.

00:00:47.000 By the way, there's this pedophile controversy.

00:00:51.000 Imagine that, right?

00:00:52.000 In Hollywood. 0.97

00:00:53.000 Who could have guessed that Hollywood was run by a certain group of pedophiles, right? 0.88

00:00:57.000 So, we're going to be talking about that.

00:00:59.000 We're going to be getting into the tweets, some righteous indignation, long overdue on the subject. 0.67

00:01:06.000 We're going to be talking about Iran tonight.

00:01:09.000 We know there was a very bellicose tweet yesterday, a very sensational tweet by the president yesterday on Iran.

00:01:19.000 And so we're going to talk about what that means, what the forecast is for the latest episode.

00:01:25.000 You know, it's funny because Trump tweeted last night in all capital letters threatening Iran.

00:01:31.000 And normally you would get all the black pillars, all the basic, low effort, low quality alt right people tweeting.

00:01:41.000 Where's Nick Fuentes?

00:01:43.000 How's Nick Fuentes going to explain this one?

00:01:45.000 Donald Trump is a half term president.

00:01:47.000 He's a one term president.

00:01:50.000 But it's funny, and you notice this because after two rounds of DACA negotiations, after two serious strikes, after the protests in Iran, after every time that President Trump does something that we don't totally like but ends up being okay anyway, these people get completely proven wrong, completely embarrassed by me.

00:02:11.000 And so now.

00:02:13.000 They have to wait until 7 o'clock on Monday night to watch America First and see what my take is on it.

00:02:19.000 And if I say it's okay, well, then they have to keep it zipped for a little while.

00:02:23.000 And if I say it's not okay, then they get to have at it, right?

00:02:27.000 But now they see Trump tweeting, oh, we're going to go to war with Iran.

00:02:30.000 We don't like Iran.

00:02:32.000 And normally they'd be all over it, but now they have to wait and see what's Nick going to say? 0.99

00:02:37.000 What's he going to say?

00:02:38.000 What's his take?

00:02:40.000 I think more or less that's what happens, right?

00:02:42.000 So we're going to be talking about that.

00:02:43.000 We're going to be talking about James Gunn.

00:02:44.000 It should be an exciting show.

00:02:47.000 Very fun.

00:02:48.000 You know, I mean, these are, well, I don't know.

00:02:51.000 You know, the James Gunn situation, I don't know if it should be described as fun, but certainly it'll be an interesting show.

00:02:57.000 Before we get into any of that, I wanted to announce we have started a social movement.

00:03:03.000 We have started a big campaign online.

00:03:06.000 You may have seen it before.

00:03:08.000 Now, we started this about a week ago or two weeks ago.

00:03:12.000 I think it was two weeks ago.

00:03:14.000 We did hashtag Papa John did nothing wrong.

00:03:19.000 And the call to action was to order Papa John's pizza because Papa John allegedly, this is according to an unsubstantiated rumor, completely unverified, unsubstantiated.

00:03:31.000 According to a rumor, Papa John Schnatter, who is the founder and now former chairman of Papa John's pizza, allegedly he said the word on a conference call.

00:03:42.000 He said the N word, God forbid, on a conference call.

00:03:46.000 And actually, the context of the conversation, according even to the rumors, Was that he was saying the N word, and in the context of the conversation, he was using it to say how much he disliked racism.

00:03:59.000 He was saying, we are not like other brands who have a racist history.

00:04:03.000 For example, KFC.

00:04:05.000 This was the conversation where Colonel Sanders, their mascot, used to say the N word.

00:04:10.000 And he's used it in a very clinical, academic sense.

00:04:14.000 And in response to that, I don't know what was going on.

00:04:16.000 I don't know if this was palace intrigue.

00:04:18.000 I don't know what exactly happened.

00:04:20.000 But the stock price collapsed because of this rumor, even though there was not really a big public outcry.

00:04:27.000 And so Papa John was forced to resign in shame.

00:04:30.000 He resigned as chairman of the company.

00:04:32.000 He apologized.

00:04:33.000 They took him off the pizza box.

00:04:35.000 They took him off the advertisements.

00:04:37.000 And we tried to put the brakes on that.

00:04:39.000 We said, and this was in good faith, we said, we support Papa John.

00:04:44.000 We support Papa John's pizza.

00:04:46.000 And Papa John did nothing wrong.

00:04:48.000 And this was when he was still a majority shareholder in the company.

00:04:53.000 He was still a board member.

00:04:54.000 And both of those things are still true.

00:04:56.000 But now, Papa John has decided he's going to try and take his company back.

00:05:01.000 He said he regrets resigning.

00:05:03.000 He takes back the apology.

00:05:05.000 We're not apologizing anymore.

00:05:07.000 And now he's lawyering up to see if he can do a hostile takeover of his own company.

00:05:12.000 Now, the company put a poison pill in their financial situation where if Papa John were to try and buy more shares in his company and regain control of it, it would dilute all the shares in the company, and so he wouldn't be able to do that.

00:05:29.000 And that expires next year.

00:05:30.000 So he's trying to figure out a way to get in there.

00:05:33.000 You know, look, we tried the carrot, it didn't work.

00:05:36.000 We tried to say we would support them more, we'd buy their pizzas.

00:05:40.000 If they brought Papa back, They didn't do it.

00:05:43.000 So now we're going to have to go and do something a little bit more extreme.

00:05:47.000 We're going to have to try the stick.

00:05:49.000 So, starting today, we are beginning the hashtag BringBackPapa Flyering campaign.

00:05:57.000 I posted this on Twitter.com.

00:05:59.000 We're going to post these all around the country.

00:06:02.000 I see people are already posting them all over the place.

00:06:05.000 Now, I can't tell you exactly where to put them because I think that would be illegal.

00:06:09.000 But, I mean, you know some good places where you could put this where the relevant information is.

00:06:14.000 People would see the information.

00:06:16.000 The flyer reads, did nothing wrong.

00:06:19.000 And it's a picture of John Schnatter.

00:06:21.000 Do not buy Papa John's pizza until they hashtag bring back Papa.

00:06:27.000 And I've been tweeting this out all afternoon, all morning.

00:06:31.000 It's already got hundreds of people tweeting it.

00:06:33.000 I've got hundreds of people on the petition.

00:06:35.000 We're going to have this going all week, and we will make Papa John submit.

00:06:39.000 They will bring back our Papa.

00:06:41.000 He did nothing wrong.

00:06:43.000 This is a man who started a billion dollar pizza company.

00:06:47.000 In 1984, with nothing but $1,600 in his pocket after he sold his car, bought some pizza equipment, started selling these great pizzas at a bar.

00:06:58.000 Next thing you know, he's a billionaire and an American hero.

00:07:01.000 So we're going to get this going around.

00:07:04.000 I see people saying, Nick, we're confused.

00:07:07.000 Last week it was buy Papa John.

00:07:09.000 This week it's boycott Papa John.

00:07:11.000 Look, I know that's really difficult for your tiny brain to handle, but we're changing it up.

00:07:16.000 It didn't work last week.

00:07:17.000 So we're going to see if this works.

00:07:18.000 We're going to try.

00:07:20.000 A harsher approach.

00:07:21.000 People are saying, I don't even like their pizza.

00:07:24.000 Support your local pizza shop.

00:07:24.000 It's not even good.

00:07:26.000 I don't personally like it.

00:07:28.000 It's got nothing to do with that.

00:07:30.000 The pizza doesn't matter.

00:07:31.000 What matters is his plan.

00:07:34.000 What matters is that we cannot allow the political correctness mob to take down another great man.

00:07:41.000 If he can do it, anybody can do it.

00:07:44.000 And that's all we're going for here.

00:07:47.000 We just want to demonstrate it's okay. 0.52

00:07:50.000 To say things in the proper context, you're not going to get shut down for a silly thing like that.

00:07:56.000 You know, and what we're about to get into with the James Gunn stuff is really going to put it in perspective.

00:08:01.000 So, put aside your little, actually, you know, your little, I see this all the time.

00:08:06.000 Put that aside for a moment and support our Papa hashtag, bring back Papa.

00:08:11.000 Tweet it out right now.

00:08:12.000 In fact, I'm going to tweet it out right now.

00:08:15.000 I'll pull it up.

00:08:16.000 And you got to tweet it, but you also got to post it.

00:08:19.000 That's the trick.

00:08:20.000 I'm going to be out at midnight tonight, possibly, who knows, out and about around town, around the city of Chicago, posting this.

00:08:27.000 Who knows where you might see it end up by tomorrow morning, right?

00:08:31.000 Who knows?

00:08:32.000 But so I'm going to pull it up.

00:08:33.000 I will pull up my Twitter here.

00:08:38.000 And I will just show you this is what it's all about, folks.

00:08:40.000 This is the hashtag, hashtag BringBackPapa.

00:08:44.000 We've got the poster working.

00:08:46.000 Look, either you can retweet this tweet or you can save the image and post it yourself.

00:08:55.000 But you've got to use the hashtag BringBackPapa.

00:08:58.000 We've got all kinds of people using it.

00:09:00.000 It's gotten great reception so far, almost 600 likes.

00:09:03.000 We've got the petition going as well.

00:09:05.000 That's right next to it, so you can sign on to that.

00:09:08.000 We've got how many people?

00:09:11.000 Like about 100 and some now, 127 supporters.

00:09:16.000 So we got, it's only been active since earlier this morning, so you got to check it out.

00:09:20.000 And look, already we've got tons of people tweeting it out on twitter.com.

00:09:26.000 There's one right now Papa John did nothing wrong, hashtag bringbackpapa.

00:09:30.000 And look, I'm just going to be retweeting these.

00:09:33.000 I'm just going to be retweeting them, liking them.

00:09:35.000 So, hey, look, even if you don't do it because you support the pop, at least do it for the Twitter cloud.

00:09:41.000 Look, I'm liking and retweeting like crazy.

00:09:45.000 And I'll be looking at the hashtag all week, liking, retweeting, seeing what people are saying.

00:09:51.000 And let's see if we can make it happen, folks.

00:09:53.000 Let's see if we can bring Papa back.

00:09:56.000 I know we can do it.

00:09:57.000 I believe in our cause.

00:09:58.000 Our cause is righteous, our cause is just.

00:10:02.000 I really do believe it's possible.

00:10:03.000 And just give me a second here.

00:10:05.000 What's going on? 1.00

00:10:06.000 Streamlabs OBS broke.

00:10:10.000 We got it fixed here.

00:10:12.000 So that's the call to action.

00:10:13.000 Be sure to tweet it out.

00:10:14.000 Post the flyer around.

00:10:16.000 We can make this happen.

00:10:17.000 It was reported about all week last week.

00:10:20.000 I didn't even know about it.

00:10:21.000 Complex, Daily Dot, all kinds of goofy shitlib websites were posting about our hashtag campaign a couple of weeks ago.

00:10:31.000 So we can get this going.

00:10:32.000 We're going to do it.

00:10:33.000 All right.

00:10:34.000 So that's Papa John.

00:10:36.000 On to the news.

00:10:38.000 That's our campaign.

00:10:39.000 We have to do it.

00:10:40.000 We have to take matters into our own hands here.

00:10:43.000 And really, this is going to put it all in context for you.

00:10:47.000 This little episode that's been happening this week.

00:10:50.000 And I don't know how many of you have been following this, how much it's been reported in the legacy media, but it's been all over Twitter.com for the past couple of days.

00:10:59.000 And of course, what I'm talking about is James Gunn.

00:11:02.000 If you don't know him, he is the director.

00:11:05.000 He is a big time director in Hollywood.

00:11:07.000 He was the director, he was supposed to direct.

00:11:09.000 Guardians of the Galaxy 3, which was a major Marvel superhero movie.

00:11:15.000 He previously directed the first two films in the series, which were massive.

00:11:21.000 I mean, these were incredible global blockbusters.

00:11:26.000 I think some of the biggest movies of all time Guardians of the Galaxy 1, Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

00:11:32.000 It's part of the Marvel superhero franchise.

00:11:35.000 And so he's a big director.

00:11:36.000 Obviously, he's directing children's movies, the Marvel superhero franchises for children.

00:11:42.000 Right?

00:11:43.000 And so it came out earlier this week, according to Mike Cernovich, that he had been tweeting some not very good things.

00:11:51.000 And you know, people have been on Twitter for a long time.

00:11:53.000 Many people have been on Twitter, celebrities, older people have been on Twitter since 2009, 2010.

00:11:59.000 And so a lot of times you'll see that when people are not very famous, they tweet things which are pretty controversial.

00:12:05.000 Then they become famous and the tweets become problematic.

00:12:09.000 We saw there was a case with some baseball player this weekend where he had tweeted things when he was 16 years old in high school, calling his friends fags or something.

00:12:18.000 And he had to talk to the head of the MLB, the commissioner, who knows? 0.59

00:12:23.000 He had to talk to the big guy in baseball. 0.94

00:12:26.000 And basically, he apologized and received a punishment because he called someone a fag when he was in high school, when he was 16 on Twitter, and somebody found it.

00:12:35.000 Well, James Gunn, it was a little bit different.

00:12:37.000 He's this major Hollywood producer, making children's movies, or rather, director, making children's movies, who is slated to direct Guardians of the Galaxy 3.

00:12:47.000 And this weekend, Mike Cernovich dug up some pretty choice tweets by James Gunn from some time ago.

00:12:54.000 And I'll read you just a little sample of some of these tweets.

00:12:58.000 Here's.

00:12:59.000 Here's a real beauty. 0.91

00:12:59.000 He says, R.T., quote, I like it when little boys, this is James Gunn, touch me in my silly place. 0.91

00:13:07.000 Shh. 0.81

00:13:09.000 Okay, now he says these are jokes, by the way.

00:13:12.000 So as the media is covering this, as the left is covering this, Marvel, Reddit people, they say this is jokes.

00:13:21.000 So just keep that in mind as I read some of these. 0.91

00:13:24.000 He says, three men and a baby they had sex with.

00:13:27.000 Hashtag unromantic movies.

00:13:30.000 This hotel shower is the weakest ever.

00:13:32.000 Felt like a three year old was peeing on my head.

00:13:35.000 This may be the plant version of adopting a damaged 12 year old girl who steals your money and accuses you of molesting her.

00:13:42.000 About to vomit as I'm stuffed with I can't, I don't know.

00:13:45.000 That must be some French word.

00:13:47.000 I'm not a cosmopolitan.

00:13:48.000 Something, an eggplant. 0.99

00:13:50.000 I'm Louis Andersoning my ass out. 0.99

00:13:53.000 Just the fat, not the little boys. 0.99

00:13:56.000 I'm doing a big Hollywood film adaptation of The Giving Tree with a happy ending.

00:14:01.000 The tree grows back in. 1.00

00:14:03.000 Gives the kid a blowjob. 0.99

00:14:05.000 He tweets, Mary Matthews just told me a story about how a monkey jerked off to completion on a kid on the set of Max Keebles. 1.00

00:14:13.000 So, okay, so you get the picture.

00:14:15.000 All right, this goes on and on and on.

00:14:17.000 There's a dozen more just like this.

00:14:19.000 People started to retweet these.

00:14:21.000 This is a major, so, and by the way, with some of the cases that you've seen over the past couple of years, these are like minor people in here and there.

00:14:31.000 This is a major Hollywood producer.

00:14:33.000 He is set to produce one of the biggest movies.

00:14:36.000 What's going to be one of the biggest movies of the year when it comes out?

00:14:39.000 Guardians of the Galaxy 3.

00:14:41.000 Major franchise for children.

00:14:43.000 I mean, you know how big Marvel Super Heroes is right now.

00:14:46.000 They've got a movie every month.

00:14:48.000 And you've got dozens and dozens and dozens of tweets just like this.

00:14:52.000 They say it's jokes.

00:14:55.000 Which to me, if you tweet, and this is many, many times, if you tweet dozens and dozens of times about pedophilia, it kind of stops being a joke, right?

00:15:04.000 You know, I tweet about things that are sometimes a little bit off color.

00:15:07.000 I don't think I've ever tweeted about it.

00:15:09.000 Pedophilia, by the way, I don't think that's a laughing matter.

00:15:13.000 But you tweet about things that are off color here and there.

00:15:16.000 Maybe there's a joke.

00:15:17.000 And there's a line.

00:15:18.000 And also, there's a line in terms of volume. 1.00

00:15:20.000 You know, Sarah Silverman got nailed this weekend, too, because I think she tweeted out one joke that was about molesting children.

00:15:28.000 And it's like, not that that's any better, but that's a single tweet.

00:15:31.000 This is dozens and dozens.

00:15:33.000 And then if you think it stops there, this is what we know about.

00:15:37.000 This starts to come out.

00:15:38.000 Mike Cernovich is tweeting about these, they're all over the place.

00:15:42.000 And then we see that James Gunn deletes 10,000 tweets from his Twitter account.

00:15:49.000 So the question becomes Were all 10,000 of those about pedophilia?

00:15:55.000 What was the process there?

00:15:56.000 What's going on there?

00:15:58.000 These are the 12 or 24 or 30 or so that were able to be recovered before he deleted 10,000 tweets.

00:16:06.000 So what's going on there?

00:16:07.000 And you gotta wonder if this is a person who, and he still says that he did nothing wrong, he's being nailed for jokes, it's about free speech, this kind of stuff, well then why would he delete 10,000 of his own tweets?

00:16:21.000 Isn't that some kind of an admission of guilt?

00:16:23.000 In some way.

00:16:25.000 And so Disney fired him, which is great.

00:16:29.000 They fired him as the director of Guardians of the Galaxy 3, and this created a big reaction from the media.

00:16:36.000 Now they're gunning for Mike Cernovich's head, and it's very interesting the way the media has reacted to it. 0.98

00:16:42.000 Mike Cernovich exposes that this guy is a sicko, obviously. 0.98

00:16:46.000 Maybe they're jokes. 0.99

00:16:48.000 I don't really care.

00:16:49.000 That's not very funny to me.

00:16:51.000 And anyway, if he's making jokes like this, he shouldn't be directing children's movies.

00:16:55.000 I think that's the bottom line.

00:16:57.000 So Disney fires him, and the reaction, instead of saying, Hollywood obviously has a problem here, because these tweets were made before he was hired by Disney, so they must have known about this.

00:17:08.000 You know, it's like you say the N-word in the case of Papa John one time in private behind closed doors, and within a month, you're out of the company you founded.

00:17:17.000 Or if you're Paula Dean or whoever it is, even if you're just a nobody, you could say one wrong thing about Muslims or about transsexuals online.

00:17:27.000 And your boss will find out about it no matter how high or low you are in society, and you'll get canned, you'll get fired.

00:17:34.000 Well, in this case, Disney, I'm sure, knew about these tweets.

00:17:37.000 They were made long before the movie.

00:17:39.000 And so they knew about it.

00:17:41.000 There's this real problem going on.

00:17:43.000 All these people are defending it.

00:17:45.000 And the response from the media is not to condemn, it's not to say this is an issue, it's not to put partisanship aside and obviously condemn pedophilia. 0.56

00:17:55.000 The media responds by saying Mike Cernovich is a far right troll.

00:18:01.000 Who is going after people, and this is outrageous.

00:18:04.000 Really?

00:18:05.000 You know, you would think this would be like a softball.

00:18:08.000 You would think this would be a lob.

00:18:11.000 After the year that Hollywood has had with sexual assault and that kind of thing, you would think after the year that they've had, they would be able to take this very easy, this is a softball pitch, and knock it out of the park.

00:18:25.000 Here's a chance where the media, Hollywood, can come together and condemn something that's obviously repulsive to any decent person.

00:18:34.000 And what do they do?

00:18:34.000 They go out there and condemn the guy who exposed it.

00:18:38.000 And it's not, they pretend like this was some fabrication, this was a hit piece, this was a smear.

00:18:44.000 He's retweeting things the man himself tweeted.

00:18:47.000 You know, it would be one thing if it was a highly edited video, you know, as many people have been the victim of on our side. 0.97

00:18:56.000 It would be one thing if it was a political view, if they said, well, he supports abortion, he is a baby killer.

00:19:02.000 You know, it's nothing like that.

00:19:03.000 It's not even like it's an ultra partisan thing.

00:19:06.000 They're showing tweets he made.

00:19:08.000 And the media moves to defend it.

00:19:10.000 Well, then we find out that this is not just our friend James Gunn, by the way.

00:19:19.000 Also, a gentleman by the name of Michael Ian Black has found out.

00:19:23.000 This is a major liberal comedian.

00:19:25.000 Oh, by the way, they're both Jewish.

00:19:27.000 I think that's worth mentioning.

00:19:29.000 People are going to get all over it and say, oh, it's white men, it's white men, it's always white men. 0.64

00:19:34.000 You know, it's kind of interesting.

00:19:35.000 In both of these major Hollywood sex scandals, So many of the people who have been nailed have been Jewish. 0.77

00:19:42.000 Isn't that so weird?

00:19:43.000 You know, like last year was Harvey Weinstein, Louis C.K., all kinds of people.

00:19:49.000 In many cases, you saw Jewish ancestry.

00:19:53.000 And in this case as well.

00:19:54.000 And I have to say that, not because I have any problem with the Jewish Hollywood or anything like that. 0.98

00:20:01.000 You know, I've often said the only problem with the Jewish people, at least in my mind, is that there aren't enough of them. 0.74

00:20:08.000 They should be everywhere, all the time.

00:20:10.000 So it's not anything like that.

00:20:12.000 I'm not, God forbid, I'm not an anti Semite.

00:20:14.000 You know, imagine that.

00:20:16.000 But it's just because liberals will say, oh, well, it's white men, it's white men, it's the white patriot.

00:20:20.000 We just have to distinguish because Jews don't identify as white, so it is important.

00:20:25.000 But we find Michael Ian Black, another major Hollywood character.

00:20:30.000 And this stuff is even worse.

00:20:32.000 And many more cases than James Gunn.

00:20:36.000 I'll just read you some more samples.

00:20:37.000 He says, now that the kids are in bed, I feel like I should probably put my pants back on.

00:20:43.000 My day so far, many weeks writing, quick baby F, more writing, picked up kids from school.

00:20:49.000 I think you kids have a real shot. 0.99

00:20:51.000 Let them poke you in the butt. 1.00

00:20:51.000 Tell them I said so. 1.00

00:20:53.000 We'll be a good story for your kids.

00:20:54.000 We ordered pizza for dinner and I stopped after one slice.

00:20:59.000 Available for private consultations.

00:21:01.000 DM for rates.

00:21:02.000 You know what pizza means, right?

00:21:04.000 My new children's book, Naked, is a story of a boy who does not like wearing clothes.

00:21:08.000 It's my autobiography.

00:21:10.000 Won't you please allow your children to quote?

00:21:12.000 This is Michael Ian Black. 0.99

00:21:14.000 Get naked with me. 0.99

00:21:17.000 I really love kids for about six minutes a day. 0.99

00:21:19.000 It goes on and on and on, folks.

00:21:21.000 This is Michael Ian Black's tweets.

00:21:23.000 There's about 25 or so that I haven't read to you.

00:21:27.000 This is just in one collection.

00:21:29.000 This is just in one article.

00:21:31.000 And the same, it's jokes.

00:21:33.000 He's able.

00:21:33.000 He's a comedian.

00:21:35.000 You know, look, there are many, many things which I find funny in the world.

00:21:40.000 There are many taboo subjects we're willing to explore.

00:21:44.000 But I think we're starting to see a pattern here.

00:21:46.000 That's when it becomes a problem.

00:21:48.000 You know, one guy who makes one joke, okay, cross the line.

00:21:53.000 Shame on you.

00:21:55.000 One guy, 10,000 jokes, that's.

00:21:58.000 A red flag.

00:21:59.000 Two guys, thousands of jokes, that's a big red flag.

00:22:03.000 Then we find out Dan Harmon.

00:22:06.000 Dan Harmon, who you may know as the creator of the show Rick and Morty.

00:22:10.000 This is one of the most popular cartoons in the country right now, for the boomers that don't know, on Cartoon Network or it's on Adult Swim or something.

00:22:20.000 Rick and Morty, which is, I mean, Kanye West likes it, Elon Musk likes it.

00:22:24.000 I mean, this is, it's a huge show.

00:22:26.000 I think they just got renewed for like literally a thousand episodes.

00:22:32.000 On Adult Swim, this is Dan Harmon.

00:22:34.000 And who's the other guy?

00:22:35.000 Justin Rowland, Royland, or something.

00:22:37.000 Well, Dan Harmon, who made it, he was also behind Community.

00:22:41.000 He deleted his Twitter account yesterday after a video surfaced.

00:22:45.000 And again, this is another hilarious joke video.

00:22:48.000 It's all jokes. 0.88

00:22:50.000 Where in 2009, he did a little spoof of the show Dexter where he broke into somebody's house and then simulated raping a baby on a baby doll. 0.68

00:23:01.000 Apparently, that was the joke. 0.73

00:23:04.000 That was the joke. 0.99

00:23:05.000 He was making a very edgy humor video for Showtime in which he breaks into a house and then simulates sex with a baby doll.

00:23:15.000 And, you know, of course, of course, you know that he understands it was a joke and we understand it was a joke because when it came out, he deleted his Twitter account completely, right?

00:23:26.000 I mean, that makes sense.

00:23:28.000 So, what you see clearly here is a very troubling pattern.

00:23:32.000 And that, you know, it's funny because in any other time in history, that would be the story.

00:23:38.000 That would be the story. 0.94

00:23:39.000 The people who make all your entertainment for your children, for you, your most beloved characters, your most beloved shows, they're rapists. 1.00

00:23:49.000 They facilitate the rape of actors and actresses all the time. 0.65

00:23:53.000 We saw that last year with the Harvey Weinstein Me Too movement.

00:23:57.000 So there's that going on.

00:23:59.000 Then we find out this year that all the creators of your shows, movies, Guardians of the Galaxy, Rick and Morty, Iron Man, your favorite comedians, they're tweeting all these really super funny jokes. 0.92

00:24:13.000 About raping children, about covert words for child pornography. 0.68

00:24:17.000 That's really cute and adorable, right? 0.98

00:24:20.000 That would be the story any given year.

00:24:23.000 But what's most, well, I don't know.

00:24:24.000 I don't really know how you could rank how sickening these things are.

00:24:28.000 You've got that going on.

00:24:30.000 And then what's somehow the same or worse is everyone in Hollywood is defending what's going on.

00:24:36.000 Now it's turned into a free speech issue, according to Reason.com, according to Ben Shapiro, according to all the Hollywood people, actors, mouthpieces.

00:24:47.000 They say it's jokes.

00:24:49.000 Far right trolls, Mike Cernovich and Jack Vosobiak, are ruining lives on Twitter.com by spreading this kind of stuff around.

00:24:57.000 And now there's a big campaign, by the way, to get James Gunn hired as the director again.

00:25:03.000 They want to bring him back.

00:25:04.000 Apparently, and this is not confirmed, he's holding high level talks with Disney to bring him back on the job so he can direct this movie.

00:25:13.000 Ben Shapiro is rumored to be behind the scenes of that as well.

00:25:17.000 And so you start to wonder just what is going on, folks.

00:25:21.000 I think any sane person can look at this and say, we don't know the whole story here.

00:25:27.000 Obviously, clearly, we don't know the whole story.

00:25:29.000 People know about these tweets, they have for a long time.

00:25:33.000 Disney knew about them when they hired these characters.

00:25:36.000 When they get spread around, the media defends these people.

00:25:39.000 And now it looks like there may not even be a consequence at all.

00:25:42.000 I mean, do you think that James Gunn will pay as big a penalty for these tweets that Mel Gibson did for what he said, or Michael Richards did for what he said, or John Schnatter did for what he said?

00:25:53.000 And so, at once, we're making a point about the depravity, the sickness of our society, which you have to understand.

00:25:59.000 When I tell you that what you consume every day is poison, the food, the water, the entertainment, that's not hyperbole, that's not a crank, like some crank conspiracy theory.

00:26:12.000 People laugh at me at their own peril.

00:26:14.000 I tweet that kind of stuff, I say that kind of stuff, and people say, Oh, you really think that?

00:26:20.000 Oh, check out this guy.

00:26:21.000 He believes that you're being poisoned.

00:26:23.000 And then every week we find out, oh, yeah, by the way, your salad was contaminated with parasites that can only be transferred through fecal matter. 1.00

00:26:32.000 So you're eating a shit salad. 0.99

00:26:34.000 We find out that, oh, yeah, you know your water, it's got about 1,000 parts per million of metal and birth control in it. 1.00

00:26:41.000 And then we find out that your favorite movie was directed by somebody who thinks it's funny to make pedophile jokes.

00:26:47.000 So people always like to laugh when we point this kind of stuff out, and then they find out they've been duped for a very long time.

00:26:54.000 So, at once, it's about the depravity of our society and who seems to be behind all of it.

00:26:58.000 And then at the same time, I think it's really some context for what we see about the right wing and really to understand where we're at in the country where John Schnatter, and this is something we talked about just in the intro of the show, in a private conversation with a marketing agency, says a word.

00:27:19.000 And it's not even like he was saying, oh, I hate or F these.

00:27:24.000 Or they've got to get out.

00:27:25.000 Or, you know, it wasn't anything derogatory.

00:27:28.000 It wasn't like he said, hey, you.

00:27:30.000 It was in a completely academic sense, completely like referential.

00:27:35.000 It was basically in quotations in a private conversation with a marketing agency.

00:27:42.000 This is a high level thing.

00:27:43.000 He was using it as an example to condemn the very thing for why people have a problem with it in the first place.

00:27:50.000 And within two months, not only is there a punishment, it comes out and the consequence is severe and immediate.

00:27:57.000 The guy, he forms his own company, he's kicked out.

00:28:01.000 They evict him from his office, they take his name off the box.

00:28:04.000 He's synonymous now with racism. 0.93

00:28:06.000 Now, if you buy Papa John's pizza, you're a racist, apparently.

00:28:10.000 That's what the media says.

00:28:12.000 Because he said, so you're better off.

00:28:15.000 And all of this is to say, in this day and age, you're better off talking about pedophilia. 0.96

00:28:23.000 I mean, you could be a literal pedophile, and you will be treated better by the media than if you're remotely right wing, if you say the N word the wrong way, and you're a white person, all that kind of stuff. 0.56

00:28:36.000 I think that should really put it in context. 0.97

00:28:38.000 This is something I predicted last week, by the way. 0.98

00:28:41.000 Last week, my prediction was based on the Papa John thing, I said somebody could be getting murdered by a black person, getting raped or murdered, and they might let loose the N word. 0.93

00:28:53.000 And if that came out, people would be more mad at the victim than they would at the perpetrator because of the ward. 0.90

00:28:58.000 And I think we basically saw something even more outlandish than that, something more extreme than that, where people who are literally pedophiles are getting treated better, are getting defended.

00:29:10.000 I mean, people are actually mad at the people going after the pedophiles.

00:29:15.000 As opposed to Papa John, where that kind of thing happens. 0.99

00:29:18.000 As opposed to anybody who, God forbid, says, Well, I'm a little bit not okay with the transsexual thing. 0.87

00:29:23.000 I'm a little bit not okay with the fact that, you know, children are being showed drag queens in their schools and that boys are wearing makeup and everything is upside down and my country is being invaded from the southern border. 0.81

00:29:36.000 I mean, anything remotely off to the right, I think that puts it in perspective a little bit. 0.96

00:29:42.000 So hopefully this march is on.

00:29:44.000 I'm very glad to see it.

00:29:45.000 Cernovich really hit the nail right on the head with this one, though.

00:29:49.000 He tweeted out the other day this is not about double standards because people are saying, well, the left didn't have a problem with Roseanne getting fired, but they have a problem with James Gunn getting fired.

00:30:01.000 And I think that's something interesting to talk about, but Cernovich is very on the money here.

00:30:06.000 He said it's not about the double standard, it's about the fact that there's pedophiles in Hollywood.

00:30:10.000 It's about the fact that there is obviously a systemic issue of sexual abuse.

00:30:17.000 Casting couch practices and pedophilia in Hollywood.

00:30:20.000 And these are the people making all the entertainment for children.

00:30:23.000 You don't think that's a problem?

00:30:25.000 I mean, that's really the core of the issue.

00:30:28.000 And so I'm really.

00:30:29.000 It's great that this is happening.

00:30:31.000 It's not great that this is a problem, but it's great that it's finally being come to light, that people are finding out about it.

00:30:38.000 Awareness is being raised because people like myself have known that this has been going on for a long time.

00:30:44.000 I mean, if you look on certain websites and.

00:30:47.000 You're not listening to the mainstream media.

00:30:49.000 I mean, you've been convinced that this was the case for a very long time.

00:30:53.000 And so hopefully something good comes out of it.

00:30:54.000 Hopefully, I don't know what that means, if there will be congressional hearings, if there will be some kind of investigation, or maybe we just expose all these people.

00:31:02.000 But it's about time. 0.82

00:31:03.000 We know that they are sickos in Hollywood.

00:31:08.000 So it's a horrible thing, but glad we are finally getting a handle on that, right?

00:31:14.000 So that's James Gunn.

00:31:16.000 Let's see.

00:31:16.000 We've got about 10 or 15 minutes or so to talk about Iran.

00:31:21.000 I don't know if we'll have a chance to get to talk about some white pills that I noticed this week.

00:31:28.000 Maybe we'll have to save those for tomorrow.

00:31:30.000 There's some big white pills right now about China and the Federal Reserve, which I wanted to get to tonight, but we may have to save it for tomorrow.

00:31:39.000 So, the other big story this weekend, aside from the joking part, too, right?

00:31:45.000 I mean, you could post, and I do this all the time, by the way.

00:31:48.000 I post jokes that are satirical, that are meant to poke fun at all different groups of people or political issues, and they want to literally hang me from a lamppost.

00:31:58.000 My friends don't want to talk to me anymore.

00:32:00.000 Nobody wants anything to do with me.

00:32:02.000 People I've known.

00:32:03.000 For years and years and years, don't want to be my friend because I made a joke about, you know, God knows what, about politics.

00:32:11.000 I mean, you know my sense of humor.

00:32:14.000 I've been ran through, given a really hard time in the media.

00:32:19.000 What's the expression?

00:32:20.000 I can't even think of it.

00:32:21.000 But I've really gone through it very badly with the media because I make an off color joke on my show.

00:32:26.000 This has been the case for years.

00:32:28.000 You know, those are jokes, and it's not really like the end of the world, but these are all hilarious jokes.

00:32:35.000 Mine. 0.97

00:32:36.000 Was damnable. 0.96

00:32:37.000 I got to be tried on the jury or the court of public opinion and sentenced to death, and everybody has to isolate me and all the rest. 0.95

00:32:46.000 And in the case of these actors, it's jokes.

00:32:49.000 What are you so worried about?

00:32:49.000 It's jokes.

00:32:51.000 It just really shows where the priorities are at.

00:32:53.000 But anyway, that was the big thing this weekend.

00:32:56.000 But also, there was something else that happened.

00:32:58.000 You also might have heard of this, which is President Trump's tweet addressed to the Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.

00:33:06.000 And this was in response to a remark by the president, the Iranian president, where he said over the weekend that while peace would be the mother of all peace with Iran, in reference to the United States, he said war with Iran would be the mother of all wars.

00:33:23.000 And so that was the backdrop for this.

00:33:25.000 I don't know if a lot of people knew that going into it because this just kind of happened last night during the weekly sweat while I was watching it.

00:33:33.000 But so President Trump tweeted out last night To President Rouhani, and this part is in all capital letters.

00:33:40.000 Never ever threaten the United States again, or you will suffer consequences the likes of which few throughout history have suffered before.

00:33:49.000 We are no longer a country that will stand for your demented words of violence and death.

00:33:55.000 Be cautious!

00:33:57.000 Exclamation point.

00:33:59.000 And so it's a little bit over the top.

00:34:02.000 Many people were quick to point this out.

00:34:04.000 Many liberals were very upset by this.

00:34:06.000 The usual cast of characters in the alt right was very upset by this.

00:34:11.000 And I saw a lot of lazy takes from the alt right.

00:34:15.000 Iran, Iran good, Saudi Arabia bad, you know, the usual stuff.

00:34:19.000 And a lot of Persians are upset by this.

00:34:23.000 But what I've noticed basically is that people are catching on with this approach.

00:34:27.000 Whereas if this was tweeted out maybe a year ago, people would be losing their minds saying, we're going to war with Iran.

00:34:35.000 The neocons are in charge.

00:34:37.000 John Bolton's running the show, that kind of thing.

00:34:40.000 We saw a little bit of that this weekend, but not as much.

00:34:43.000 People recognize the obvious similarities between his approach with Iran in this tweet and his approach with North Korea last year, just last summer, when he said that North Korea would be met with, remember, fire and fury, the likes of which have never been seen.

00:34:57.000 I mean, think about it.

00:34:58.000 He said, you will suffer consequences, the likes of which few throughout history have ever suffered before.

00:35:04.000 With North Korea said, you will face fire and fury, the likes of which have never been seen.

00:35:09.000 I mean, it's effectively the same thing.

00:35:11.000 It's the same rhetoric, and it's the same approach.

00:35:14.000 We know it's the same approach.

00:35:16.000 Its little thing called brinksmanship. 0.56

00:35:18.000 And the goal here is to persuade Iran, as was the case with North Korea, that it is a better alternative to comply and cooperate with the United States and give us what we demand than possibly to face war with the United States.

00:35:35.000 And although many people understand that similarity, that basic tactic and how it was employed, how it worked with North Korea, I do have to play devil's advocate at this point in time and say that the two strategies are not totally the same.

00:35:49.000 Now, don't get me wrong.

00:35:51.000 I trust Trump.

00:35:52.000 That goes without saying.

00:35:53.000 I trust Trump 100% on everything.

00:35:56.000 He's earned our trust.

00:35:58.000 And not only that, I don't believe at all that there is any chance that we will be invading Iran anytime soon.

00:36:04.000 And I'll get into why that is in a moment.

00:36:07.000 However, people may notice the similarities between the Iran and the North Korea comments, but they are very different negotiations.

00:36:15.000 They will play out very differently.

00:36:18.000 And I think that's important to note.

00:36:19.000 So I tweeted a pretty long thread about it this morning, and I just want to go over some of the finer points of it.

00:36:25.000 Which is to say that the style is the same, and this particular tactic is the same, which is to say the bluster, bluffing about war, but the negotiation process will be very different.

00:36:36.000 There's a different end game in mind with Iran than there was with North Korea, a much more ambitious and a much more comprehensive end game.

00:36:46.000 And additionally, the leverage that will be used to achieve those concessions, that end game, will be very, very different.

00:36:53.000 And so, what do I mean by that?

00:36:54.000 In the case of North Korea, What we wanted was very, very simple, very, very straightforward, and singular. 0.70

00:37:02.000 We wanted complete, verifiable, irreversible denuclearization. 0.94

00:37:07.000 And it's very important that we get those three words correct. 0.89

00:37:11.000 And this is, of course, to distinguish from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action or the Iran deal, which was none of those things.

00:37:19.000 Under the Iran deal, we could not inspect their military facilities, so it was not truly verifiable.

00:37:25.000 They were allowed to Keep a large number of their centrifuges, a large number of their uranium.

00:37:30.000 They were allowed to keep their blueprints and schematics.

00:37:33.000 So it was not irreversible.

00:37:34.000 If they wanted to reconstitute it, they could do it very quickly and also within the span of 10 or 15 years once the treaty sunset it or the deal sunset it.

00:37:44.000 And additionally, it was not complete because they still had a big part of their nuclear program intact and their missile program as well.

00:37:51.000 So President Trump kind of framed the Iran deal against the North Korea deal.

00:37:55.000 He kind of had this reciprocal relationship with the two where he. 0.87

00:37:59.000 In order to communicate to North Korea what was the desired end game, which was very simple and singular, we want denuclearization and we want it in these three ways. 0.65

00:38:08.000 He shut down the Iran deal to say it's not just a denuking, it's a denuking in this fashion. 0.76

00:38:14.000 And in that way, the end game was we have to convince Kim Jong Un. 0.51

00:38:19.000 And because North Korea is a totalitarian country, he only had to convince one person. 0.55

00:38:24.000 He had to convince, on a personal level, Kim Jong Un, that he ought to completely, verifiably, and irreversibly, Dismantle his nuclear arsenal. 0.82

00:38:35.000 With Iran, it's much more complicated. 0.57

00:38:37.000 In his speech, where he laid out the end to the Iran deal, and he announced that it was terminated, at least on the part of the United States, the deal is still going on with all the other actors, and that's a very important piece of the puzzle.

00:38:50.000 The Iran deal is put together between Iran and the United States, but also Germany, the UK, France, Russia, and China. 0.79

00:38:58.000 So that's the P5 plus one powers and Iran.

00:39:01.000 They usually call this six party talks.

00:39:04.000 And so the Iran deal is still going on with all those other countries, just not with the United States.

00:39:09.000 But anyway, when President Trump announced that he was terminating the deal, he laid out his conditions for Iran, which were not just denuclearization, but also there were three other components.

00:39:20.000 He wants Iran to take down their missile program, their ballistic missile program.

00:39:25.000 He wants them to stop their funding of terrorism, which is used very loosely.

00:39:30.000 They mean funding Shiite militias, Shiite insurgents, Palestinian groups, militias in Syria and Iraq.

00:39:39.000 So it's not like Al Qaeda, it's not like ISIS.

00:39:41.000 It's more regional based militant groups as opposed to true to form terrorist groups.

00:39:49.000 So we have to get them to stop their spread of terrorism.

00:39:52.000 And lastly, he wanted to curtail Iranian influence. 0.88

00:39:55.000 And this is a much more, that's a much bigger deal, that last piece in particular.

00:39:59.000 He said he wanted to resolve the conflict between Saudi Arabia and Israel and Iran in Syria, in Yemen, all across the region, which would probably include Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq as well, Qatar maybe.

00:40:15.000 And so, obviously, this is a much more ambitious play than it is with North Korea. 0.72

00:40:20.000 With North Korea, we're saying, and it's so easy denuke, denuclearize the Korean Peninsula. 0.81

00:40:26.000 That's all. 0.88

00:40:27.000 Get the bombs out.

00:40:28.000 Everybody can get behind that.

00:40:29.000 Everybody agrees that that is a good strategic objective for the United States, at least most people who are not like edgy, contrarian, isolationist Ron Paul people.

00:40:40.000 And I do say that very much in a disparaging way.

00:40:43.000 It's not smart. 0.79

00:40:45.000 But with regard to Iran, it's a much more ambitious program. 1.00

00:40:48.000 It's a denuking, which is huge. 0.89

00:40:50.000 It's also ballistic missiles.

00:40:52.000 It's stop funding militant groups.

00:40:54.000 And it's we have to find an end to like a 15 year proxy war between 20 different countries.

00:41:01.000 So ambitious.

00:41:03.000 So, although, like I said, the rhetoric in this one particular case is very similar, the end game is very, very, very different. 0.66

00:41:12.000 With Iran, it's much more complicated, much more ambitious, much more comprehensive.

00:41:18.000 And additionally, Not only is there more, and not only are each of those issues more in depth, but additionally, Trump not only has to convince the Ayatollah, who is technically the supreme leader of Iran, but because Iran's power is dispersed more horizontally in the government, as opposed to North Korea, where it's Kim Jong un on top and then everyone else, President Trump has to convince the supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei.

00:41:46.000 He has to convince the president, Hassan Rouhani.

00:41:49.000 He has to convince the clerical establishment, which holds a lot of power.

00:41:53.000 He has to convince the jurists.

00:41:55.000 He has to convince the military wing or some combination of these different factions that it's in their best interest to achieve all of those things.

00:42:04.000 That is a much more complicated deal. 0.74

00:42:06.000 And I'll bet that's why he started on North Korea first. 0.67

00:42:10.000 Additionally, the leverage that will be used to achieve those ends is much more difficult with Iran than in the case of North Korea. 0.51

00:42:19.000 And so people are saying, well, Donald Trump wants to do with North Korea.

00:42:23.000 Rather, he wants to do with Iran what he did with North Korea.

00:42:26.000 But he can't do that because Iran is not in the same isolated position as North Korea.

00:42:32.000 That's correct.

00:42:33.000 But he's using very, very different leverage on Iran than he is with North Korea. 0.55

00:42:38.000 With North Korea, it was very simple because all we had to do to exert pressure was get China to shut down trade with them.

00:42:46.000 North Korea has a sanctions regime on them, which has been built up since 1993.

00:42:52.000 And everybody's a part of it every European country, even Russia, the United Nations, the Security Council.

00:42:59.000 China has been a signatory on it for the past couple of years to greater or a lesser extent.

00:43:05.000 And so the sanctions regime on North Korea is robust.

00:43:09.000 It's probably the most robust sanctions regime in history.

00:43:09.000 It's absolute.

00:43:14.000 And so all President Trump had to do is tighten the screws a little bit, get China to cooperate, and then they're starving economically.

00:43:21.000 And so he's convinced North Korea then that the only option, the only three options, are denuclearization, you give in to our demands, you stop your nuclear program, and we'll actually help you a lot, or you starve to death.

00:43:36.000 And that's literally what will happen.

00:43:37.000 Your country will run out of fuel.

00:43:39.000 They will run out of foreign currency.

00:43:41.000 They will run out of resources.

00:43:43.000 And everybody will start to starve to death.

00:43:46.000 Or you'll get destroyed in war.

00:43:49.000 And we convinced them that we would go to war by doing missile strikes in Syria, by doing carrier drills in the Pacific, by doing Minuteman missile launches in the Pacific, and those kinds of things. 0.64

00:44:00.000 And so, in those two ways, with these shows of military force and through the economic isolation, we were able to convince North Korea.

00:44:09.000 That the only viable option forward for the regime would be concessions, would be denuclearization.

00:44:16.000 With Iran, it's very different, obviously, for a couple of reasons.

00:44:20.000 Number one, Iran is not as isolated as North Korea.

00:44:25.000 I pointed out that the other five countries that participated in the Iran deal are still a part of the Iran deal because that means they're still doing trade with Iran.

00:44:34.000 The Iran deal, which liberalized trade with all these different countries Germany, the UK, France, Russia, China, Brought all kinds of investment into Iran.

00:44:44.000 And all the sanctions that have been built up over 20 years by various governments and parliaments and general assemblies and security councils all basically went away and were not able to be immediately brought back into effect.

00:44:56.000 So if we pull out of the treaty, well, guess what?

00:44:59.000 Iran is still doing trade with all these major economies.

00:45:02.000 They're doing trade with regional economies.

00:45:04.000 And they're much more integrated.

00:45:06.000 They've got a much bigger population, a much wealthier population.

00:45:09.000 And so they're able to sustain themselves.

00:45:12.000 America cannot unilaterally. 0.69

00:45:14.000 Exert nearly the same economic pressure on Iran that they did North Korea. 0.91

00:45:19.000 With North Korea, we're able to strangle them effectively until nobody can eat anymore. 0.87

00:45:24.000 I mean, that's unilateral power. 0.99

00:45:26.000 With Iran, there's no such luck.

00:45:29.000 Iran has a major natural resources reserve.

00:45:33.000 They've got oil, so that means they've got wealth.

00:45:35.000 They've got major patron states like Russia and China.

00:45:39.000 They've got regional friends like Assad and Pakistan.

00:45:43.000 And so they're able to get by a little bit better. 0.68

00:45:46.000 Than North Korea.

00:45:47.000 However, that's not the play.

00:45:49.000 That's not the intention.

00:45:50.000 Many people point this out, but people don't really know there's a way around this.

00:45:54.000 What President Trump seeks to achieve by sanctioning Iran, and that's what he's doing, he's sanctioning Iran, and he's also sanctioning companies that maybe their government is still doing business with Iran, but he's telling the companies that if they do business with Iran, America won't do business with the companies.

00:46:12.000 So you have major oil companies and other companies like Airbus and other big manufacturers saying, well, You know, we were doing business with Iran, and technically we can do business with Iran under the law of our country, but if we go through with it, America will stop doing business with our company.

00:46:30.000 So we have to shut it down, essentially.

00:46:33.000 So President Trump is putting some economic pressure on Iran, and the play there is not to make it so that they don't have fuel and they don't have food and they can't get by anymore.

00:46:43.000 The play there is to make the people upset.

00:46:46.000 The play there is to make it not so bad the people are starving, but to make it just bad enough that a people that is already poor.

00:46:54.000 And not happy.

00:46:55.000 Economic growth has been very slow.

00:46:57.000 The exchange rate between the Iranian currency and our currency has collapsed.

00:47:02.000 He wants to make it so bad for the people in Iran, or bad enough that it would create instability in the country.

00:47:10.000 And that way, this is a policy called containment.

00:47:13.000 And that way, President Trump could possibly bring about regime change in Iran without conducting a massive war.

00:47:21.000 And that's what scares the Iranian regime.

00:47:23.000 If President Trump got up every day, and this was his only strategy, was to say, You either comply or we're going to war with you.

00:47:31.000 The Iranians would never believe that because a war with Iran would be an absolutely suicidal undertaking.

00:47:39.000 It would be probably $2 trillion.

00:47:42.000 It would involve at least a quarter of a million military personnel. 0.80

00:47:47.000 Iran, because they're among the most sophisticated cyber warfare experts in the world, would be conducting massive cyber attacks against the United States.

00:47:56.000 Iran would close the Strait of Hormuz, which is the narrow gap. 0.84

00:48:01.000 Through which oil from the Persian Gulf can get out into the Indian Ocean for global trade. 0.87

00:48:07.000 So they would effectively shut down the global oil market and send the entire world into economic collapse. 0.50

00:48:13.000 Their strategy, if there were to be such a war, would be to inflict the maximum amount of casualties on Americans. 0.93

00:48:20.000 So it wouldn't even be like Saddam Hussein where we'd be able to go in and clear them out. 0.92

00:48:24.000 Iran's strategy from the get go would be purely to inflict casualties, purely to kill Americans so that we would get war weary and pull out. 0.97

00:48:33.000 And then additionally, let's say. 0.99

00:48:34.000 In spite of all of that, we went through with it, it would involve probably at least a 10 year occupation of the country, at least.

00:48:43.000 That's the best case scenario, by the way, that all those things happen. 0.51

00:48:46.000 So if we went to Iran and we said, you better do what we want or we're going to war with you, they'd say, that's ridiculous. 0.91

00:48:54.000 That's not in your interest. 0.62

00:48:55.000 That would never happen.

00:48:57.000 And at least, you know, maybe it wouldn't happen under the Trump administration because Trump promised that he wouldn't do anything close to that.

00:49:04.000 So, if we went and we said, we're going to go to war with you, well, that would be a tremendous undertaking. 0.74

00:49:08.000 Well, if we tell Iran, well, actually, all we're going to do is just tighten the screws on you, and it's very cheap for us. 0.94

00:49:15.000 The American public is not going to get war weary from that. 0.98

00:49:18.000 We can just tighten the screws.

00:49:20.000 We can just throw out propaganda.

00:49:21.000 We could do intelligence warfare.

00:49:23.000 We could subvert your government.

00:49:25.000 We could do those things at a very low cost.

00:49:28.000 Nobody gets mad.

00:49:29.000 We don't have to send a single American to die, and we could still bring about regime change.

00:49:34.000 Well, that's a much more credible and persuasive threat.

00:49:37.000 And again, the point here is not.

00:49:39.000 The point is not that we want regime change.

00:49:39.000 Regime change.

00:49:41.000 The point is not that regime change is a good thing.

00:49:44.000 It isn't necessarily.

00:49:45.000 But the point is that we need to convince the Iranian regime, or at least the Trump administration and their strategy, they need to persuade the regime that they either give these massive concessions or there is no alternative.

00:50:00.000 The alternative is that they are not in power, they are dead in the streets, their government is not viable, and that's effectively what's happening here.

00:50:08.000 So that's why it's a very different negotiation from.

00:50:11.000 North Korea and Iran.

00:50:13.000 Very different strategies, very different end game. 0.95

00:50:16.000 And so people see the cosmetic, the superficial differences, and that's understandable.

00:50:21.000 It's the same style, it's the same process, effectively.

00:50:25.000 All negotiations are basically that way.

00:50:29.000 But the leverage is different and the end game is different.

00:50:33.000 And so we'll see what happens.

00:50:34.000 I have no problem with that strategy, by the way.

00:50:36.000 That's a fine strategy.

00:50:38.000 You know, I'm not an isolationist.

00:50:40.000 I believe that America should fight for her interests.

00:50:44.000 So long as we're fighting for our own interests. 0.89

00:50:47.000 I mean, the problem becomes when people say it's in our interest, but it's actually in Israel's interest.

00:50:54.000 The problem is when we're in Iraq for God knows what reason and it's trillions of dollars and Americans are dying, that's what I have a problem with.

00:51:02.000 I don't have a problem with America bullying countries.

00:51:05.000 I don't have a problem with America throwing starbursts at Angela Merkel and blustering and bluffing and all that kind of thing.

00:51:12.000 I have no problem at all with that.

00:51:13.000 I think America should shape world events to the extent that we are able to, but it has to be within the confines of what we are able to do in terms of financials and in terms of what we're willing to do with.

00:51:27.000 American lives.

00:51:29.000 And so if it's a very low cost thing, very low casualty, and it's not a big commitment, you know, who really cares?

00:51:35.000 A lot of people are like ideologically opposed to, well, we shouldn't be calling the shots. 0.80

00:51:42.000 Iran has a right to self determination.

00:51:44.000 They should do whatever they want.

00:51:45.000 National sovereignty.

00:51:47.000 America shouldn't bully other countries. 0.98

00:51:48.000 It's like that's a lot of gay Wilsonian thinking, and it's simply wrong. 0.99

00:51:54.000 The truth of the matter is that the world, the way that international relations functions as opposed to affairs within a country, Is that it's the strongest makes the rules. 0.91

00:52:04.000 There's no government that's going to tell you what's right and what's wrong and who has rights and who doesn't.

00:52:10.000 There's only people who are powerful, and that's about it.

00:52:14.000 So people like to pretend that, well, America's this horrible country because we're trying to shape events all around the world.

00:52:22.000 Well, newsflash if any other country in the world were as powerful as America, they would be doing the exact same thing.

00:52:30.000 People say, well, Russia and China respect national sovereignty.

00:52:33.000 No, they don't.

00:52:34.000 They say that because it's a convenient narrative to further their interests against America's interests.

00:52:41.000 That's all it amounts to.

00:52:43.000 If China was as powerful as America, I am sure that they would be much less benign than we are.

00:52:50.000 And that's not to say that we're totally benign, but they would be less benign.

00:52:54.000 You look at China, what they're doing in the South China Sea.

00:52:57.000 Does that respect national sovereignty?

00:52:59.000 You look at what Russia's doing.

00:53:01.000 I mean, they interfere all around the globe as well.

00:53:03.000 And so it's not to say that anybody's bad or anybody's good.

00:53:07.000 It's simply to say that we are all countries.

00:53:10.000 We are all pursuing the interests of our countries and their respective peoples, and that's okay.

00:53:15.000 But we want our country to win.

00:53:17.000 We want our country to have our will exercised in the world.

00:53:21.000 And if we can do that cheaply and without tremendous expense in lives, then I think it's a fine thing.

00:53:27.000 I think it's a great thing, you know, so long as it's not, so long as it's in our interest.

00:53:32.000 That's the other key caveat.

00:53:34.000 What we did in Libya, for example, was not in our interest.

00:53:38.000 What we did in Syria.

00:53:39.000 Backing the rebels was so not in our interest.

00:53:42.000 The Iraq war was so not in our interest.

00:53:45.000 But non proliferation of WMDs is in our interest.

00:53:49.000 And so we should be able to do what it takes to get rid of them.

00:53:52.000 And that's all it is.

00:53:53.000 It amounts to persuasion.

00:53:55.000 People like to say it's four dimensional chess.

00:53:58.000 Really, Nick?

00:53:59.000 You're saying that there is a coherent strategy behind this rhetoric that is consistent with Trump's principles?

00:54:07.000 That's four dimensional chess.

00:54:09.000 No, it's not.

00:54:09.000 It's called bluffing.

00:54:11.000 It's called bluffing.

00:54:12.000 You know, people want to pretend like it's this ultra complicated, oh, really?

00:54:17.000 It's just all part of the master plan.

00:54:19.000 It's all part of some grand, convoluted design.

00:54:22.000 It's called bluffing.

00:54:24.000 All we're saying is that Trump is saying he's going to go to war, but he actually isn't to convince Iran to fold.

00:54:32.000 I mean, it's called bluffing.

00:54:33.000 If you've ever played poker, you know it's not that complicated. 0.96

00:54:35.000 So that's what's going on with Iran. 0.52

00:54:39.000 And we'll see what happens.

00:54:40.000 It's a little early to tell, admittedly.

00:54:42.000 So we'll see how well that.

00:54:44.000 Forecast ages, but that's what I see happening here.

00:54:47.000 That is, and you know, I just have a very great intuition for these kinds of things. 0.85

00:54:52.000 And I called it right on Syria.

00:54:54.000 I called it right on North Korea.

00:54:56.000 I called it right on Russia, on China.

00:54:59.000 I mean, so far, my foreign policy forecast had been 100%.

00:55:03.000 You know, we're batting.

00:55:04.000 I don't know how the batting average works, but we're batting 100% good.

00:55:09.000 And so that's my forecast, but we have to give it some time.

00:55:12.000 We have to give it at least 72 hours, I think, before we decide one way or the other.

00:55:19.000 But we'll see what happens.

00:55:20.000 Don't black pill. 1.00

00:55:21.000 I will come for you. 1.00

00:55:22.000 So that's all the time we have for that.

00:55:25.000 But don't go anywhere.

00:55:26.000 We're going to take your Streamlabs and Super Chats now.

00:55:31.000 Those are all of our issues.

00:55:33.000 That's the news of the day.

00:55:36.000 But now we've got the questions.

00:55:37.000 Now we've got the question time.

00:55:41.000 So let's see what people are saying in the chat.

00:55:44.000 This is the Super Chats.

00:55:45.000 Remember, the link is down below.

00:55:48.000 We've got TH who says, What will happen if nationalism wins?

00:55:52.000 Could globalists do false flag attacks for a massive shift in public opinion or cause a nuclear war so they are at least in control of what's left of the planet?

00:56:02.000 Do they have an ace in the hole?

00:56:05.000 That's a good question.

00:56:06.000 I don't really think anybody has an idea of what will happen because we've never seen anything quite like this.

00:56:13.000 We've never seen such concentrated power like this.

00:56:18.000 And sure, there have been absolutist totalitarian regimes in the past, but there has never been such a tremendous disparity.

00:56:26.000 Between the ruling class and the masses.

00:56:29.000 And I'm talking on a global scale.

00:56:30.000 You imagine there's about 0.01% of the population which wields power unheard of in human history.

00:56:39.000 And the average person in the world is like a poor village person.

00:56:43.000 So compare, for example, like, I don't know, some Indian in a village who lives on like a dollar a day to somebody like Elon Musk or the 100 and some billionaires in the world or the however many millionaires in the world. 0.88

00:56:58.000 I mean, think of what it means to have a million dollars.

00:57:01.000 In the context of what the vast majority of the human population looks like, or even the vast majority of Westerners look like, there's never been that kind of inequity in the world.

00:57:11.000 And so I don't think anybody has any clue of what happens if we even begin to challenge the status quo.

00:57:17.000 People are starting to see the response to President Trump, but God forbid we ever really see the government, see the state apparatus.

00:57:27.000 I think we'll see what happens in Italy.

00:57:30.000 I think Matt Salvini is probably the furthest along.

00:57:33.000 In terms of the country being awake to what's happening.

00:57:37.000 So, I guess we'll have to see.

00:57:39.000 I have no idea.

00:57:40.000 But they're absolutely capable of false flags.

00:57:42.000 They're absolutely capable of unspeakable acts.

00:57:46.000 It just requires a lot of planning on our part to make sure that everything goes off without a hitch.

00:57:52.000 Because it's not enough to just throw bombs, and I mean, rhetorically speaking, it's not enough just to dismantle the system like Trump is doing.

00:57:59.000 I mean, like a political bomb like that.

00:58:02.000 It's not enough just to shake the system.

00:58:05.000 And turn it upside down.

00:58:06.000 I mean, we actually have to see through a transfer of power from the old ruling elite to a vanguard, which will deliver us the nationalism that we need.

00:58:17.000 So it's difficult.

00:58:20.000 Jeff says it's a shame what happened to Papa John, but no one seems to be talking about how he was diagnosed with Ligma a few years ago.

00:58:29.000 So maybe that's why they're trying to push him out of the company.

00:58:32.000 Yeah, very funny.

00:58:33.000 Never heard that one before, Jeff.

00:58:35.000 Trent Slodentro says, Will Rick and Morty's next season be canceled now?

00:58:39.000 I think Adult Swim should bring back world peace now that some space has freed up.

00:58:44.000 Yeah, right?

00:58:45.000 Isn't that so funny? 0.62

00:58:47.000 You know, Rick and Morty has been on air despite the existence of this video, where the creator of Rick and Morty is simulating infantile rape or the rape of an infant.

00:58:58.000 I don't know what you even call that.

00:59:00.000 Sam Hyde got fired for what?

00:59:02.000 Because he made a racially charged joke, really?

00:59:06.000 There was a hidden swastika in the show, which was a total lie. 0.96

00:59:12.000 Just goes to show you're literally better off being a pedophile than you are being a right wing person. 0.93

00:59:18.000 In the world today, you will get more sympathy, you will get more protection, you will get more understanding and compassion if you are a literal pedophile from the left, from liberals, than if you are a Trump supporter, if you're a conservative. 0.93

00:59:32.000 That's just a fact, obviously.

00:59:34.000 Joe LaCroette says, Hey, Nick, have you heard of this hot new underground show being cooked up by rogue elements in your Discord?

00:59:41.000 It's called the Daily Brap, and it's live after your show.

00:59:44.000 Maybe you should check it out.

00:59:45.000 I hear they are big fans of yours.

00:59:47.000 It totally isn't run by a bunch of out of touch. Boomers.

00:59:55.000 The Daily Brap.

00:59:56.000 You know, every time I go on the Discord, the Daily Brap is on.

01:00:00.000 I don't know what's going on there, but I tune in at midnight, Daily Brap is on.

01:00:06.000 I jump into the Discord at 3 a.m., The Daily Brap is on.

01:00:09.000 I tune in at 7 a.m., 8 a.m. the afternoon, The Daily Brap is on.

01:00:15.000 I don't know what's going on there, but it's very disturbing.

01:00:20.000 But maybe I'll have to pop in every now and again.

01:00:22.000 Who knows what could happen, Joe?

01:00:24.000 Trince Ledentro says, thoughts on Richard Spencer not being able to keep it in his pants?

01:00:29.000 Not the best optics, if you ask me. 0.99

01:00:32.000 Has the alt right turned into some huge paganslash atheist orgy? 0.97

01:00:36.000 Or was it always like this? 0.99

01:00:37.000 Very sad.

01:00:38.000 Knicker nationalism is the way forward.

01:00:41.000 Well, with Richard Spencer, you know, I don't want to, I really don't want to wade into all the drama.

01:00:47.000 It's rumors, really.

01:00:48.000 So, Beardson and Sean, this is the story.

01:00:52.000 On the weekly sweat last night, Beardson and Sean said that they had heard from multiple sources.

01:00:58.000 That Spencer was sleeping with Greg Conti's girlfriend.

01:01:03.000 And Greg Conti is like a very close associate.

01:01:06.000 It's very, like, just juvenile drama.

01:01:09.000 It's like, oh, Sean said the blah, blah, blah.

01:01:12.000 You know, so it's kind of goofy stuff.

01:01:14.000 I don't know if that's true or not.

01:01:16.000 I've talked to some people, they say it isn't.

01:01:18.000 I've talked to some people, they say it is true.

01:01:22.000 But nevertheless, what we see with the alt right is that the leadership is just simply not serious.

01:01:27.000 I mean, that's a big part of why I left.

01:01:29.000 I mean, you could subtract this one example.

01:01:32.000 And we still have so many other instances of debauchery and just irresponsible behavior in the rhetoric and personal conduct.

01:01:42.000 I mean, these people are just not really great role models for what the movement should be.

01:01:47.000 And I've always said, you know, people say, oh, Richard Spencer's your leader and Richard Spencer's your BF.

01:01:52.000 You know, Will Nardi tweeted that at me the other day. 0.97

01:01:54.000 What an asinine thing to say. 0.97

01:01:56.000 And I've always maintained my leader is Trump, always. 0.98

01:02:00.000 Donald Trump is, I mean, he sings the anthem to my show.

01:02:04.000 He's the person I defend all day long.

01:02:05.000 I'm in Trump's movement.

01:02:07.000 And so, look, obviously, they were not ready for the publicity and all that came to them in the year after the election because it was just one disaster after another, whether it was not being prepared for a rally or not controlling who was at the rally, or it was these weird personal fiascos and drama. 0.96

01:02:30.000 I mean, it's just a lot of dumb stuff. 0.94

01:02:32.000 They're just not fit to lead. 0.98

01:02:35.000 And people say that's counter signaling.

01:02:37.000 That's punching right.

01:02:39.000 All he does is attack people.

01:02:41.000 It's not an attack, it's just an observation.

01:02:43.000 I mean, these things are simply true.

01:02:45.000 And if we lack introspection, if we don't self critique and learn from those things, it's not like the left is going to ignore these things.

01:02:56.000 There are a number of people in the movement who have this weird idea that, well, if we just shut the hell up about these glaring, obvious flaws, like no one will know about it, it'll just be a little secret.

01:03:10.000 You know, it would be like if your house had a big, gaping hole right next to the front door.

01:03:17.000 And somebody was like, oh, hey, neighbor, you've got a big effing hole in your house.

01:03:22.000 Anybody could walk right in and take your stuff and break your stuff. 0.98

01:03:25.000 And you were like, shut the hell up. 0.70

01:03:28.000 I thought you were my friend. 0.98

01:03:29.000 What are you punching, right?

01:03:30.000 How dare you?

01:03:30.000 Nobody even knew about that.

01:03:32.000 Nobody was talking about that.

01:03:33.000 Why don't you talk about other people?

01:03:35.000 You know, we have to identify those areas.

01:03:39.000 And especially on the right, where everybody is a liability for everybody else, even Ben Shapiro is being lumped in with the alt right.

01:03:46.000 So, I mean, that's why we have to differentiate.

01:03:48.000 If it weren't like that, we wouldn't have to, but that's how it is.

01:03:52.000 So, I just have to say, I don't have any personal problems with these people.

01:03:56.000 I don't have any personal animosity towards any of them in particular.

01:04:03.000 But I just see these things and I say, wow, it's just kind of unfortunate that it has to be like that.

01:04:10.000 Because, I mean, the ideas they put out are interesting and I think they should be considered.

01:04:15.000 But people say, why are you alt right?

01:04:17.000 I mean, you believe in racial consciousness or racial realism and you believe in.

01:04:25.000 Influence and that kind of thing.

01:04:27.000 Why aren't you all right?

01:04:27.000 Well, I didn't really sign on to the whole trailer park drama where there's cuck boxes and, you know, the leaders are cucking their followers and there's just drinking all the time and it's just partying.

01:04:40.000 I didn't really sign up for that.

01:04:41.000 I wanted to, I'm not really about all that, which it seems like that's what the movement's become about.

01:04:46.000 I'm about that knicker nationalism.

01:04:49.000 And it's basically true.

01:04:50.000 After about a year and a half, Nick Nation is about the only remaining respectable.

01:04:57.000 Brand remaining out of all the rest that has not been tainted by spurbs, by weird drama, by women blowing up a show, by all kinds of goofy things.

01:05:09.000 It just goes to show that my path forward, which I elucidated very logically, very articulately, and I think persuasively, is the only path forward.

01:05:18.000 I'm still verified on Twitter.

01:05:20.000 I've never been censored on Twitter, on YouTube, any of the major social media platforms.

01:05:25.000 And it's because I've got the right rhetoric, I parse it in the right way, I've got the right approach.

01:05:30.000 In terms of my personality, in terms of how I get along with people.

01:05:35.000 And I'm building bridges with people to the right of me and to the left of me.

01:05:39.000 And so that's the way forward.

01:05:41.000 I think people are recognizing that.

01:05:42.000 We're seeing that a coalition of people is coming together that's tired of the goofy, weird drama.

01:05:48.000 We care about the issues, we care about getting stuff done.

01:05:52.000 And they're all coming around to something very similar to what I'm creating.

01:05:55.000 You look at like Jake Lloyd, Faith Goldie, Vince James.

01:06:00.000 I think they are all adopting the knicker mindset, the American nationalist mindset.

01:06:05.000 Mentality.

01:06:06.000 And it's a very good thing.

01:06:07.000 So I think we've basically learned our lesson.

01:06:11.000 Samurai Spirit, last week you said jokes were good to help normalize certain ideas.

01:06:16.000 Then over the weekend, a lot of jokes came out from Hollywood liberals.

01:06:20.000 Hmm, really gets me thinking.

01:06:23.000 Well, I didn't say the jokes help normalize ideas, but they do help disarm people to be more receptive to ideas.

01:06:30.000 And of course, that's only within a certain bounds, you know.

01:06:36.000 I don't think there's any joke you could tell about pedophilia that somebody would be like, oh, that's funny.

01:06:40.000 I'm totally okay with that now.

01:06:42.000 But there are jokes about things that people know that are true.

01:06:45.000 Sam Hyde's a great example.

01:06:47.000 His videos are funny.

01:06:49.000 And look, he's not the best stand up comedian in the world.

01:06:52.000 I think he acknowledges that.

01:06:54.000 And the skits are really what's world class.

01:06:57.000 But what's hilarious about him is that it's just true.

01:07:00.000 And he's willing to say it.

01:07:02.000 And he says it in a way that's blunt and at times hyperbolic.

01:07:05.000 But that's what makes it funny there's a kernel of truth in it.

01:07:08.000 And that's how we relate to it.

01:07:10.000 And that disarms you.

01:07:11.000 From your initial reaction, if I had just told you.

01:07:14.000 You know, for example, he gets up and does a skit where he says, he's in Muslim garb, and he says, I'm a Muslim, I'm just as European as you, you know, and all that kind of thing. 0.94

01:07:24.000 Now, if I said Muslims are bad and they're raping the West and all this, and it was some screed, people might say, Oh, I don't like the sound of that. 0.95

01:07:33.000 But if you make it satire, if you make it a joke, well, there's no harm, no foul. 1.00

01:07:37.000 You're laughing at a joke, and hey, it's funny because it's kind of true, right?

01:07:40.000 Oh, I feel bad for laughing at that, but you can't help it.

01:07:43.000 So that disarms you from political ideas, but.

01:07:45.000 I don't know about all the rest.

01:07:49.000 Kyle says, just want to thank the Lord as I start my new job tomorrow.

01:07:53.000 Missed the show today, but I'll watch later.

01:07:55.000 Well, good to hear it and good luck on the new job.

01:07:59.000 Let's see our super chats here.

01:08:03.000 What do we got in the super chats?

01:08:06.000 We've got Simon Skuller who says, it's my dad's birthday today.

01:08:09.000 He said, the Patrick Little couldn't pitch a tent in our yard, but that you could next time you're in Massachusetts.

01:08:14.000 Well, appreciate it, big guy.

01:08:16.000 I'm trying to get out to Massachusetts sometime this fall.

01:08:19.000 To give a speech somewhere.

01:08:21.000 So the problem is, I've got all my friends are not here. 0.98

01:08:25.000 It sucks. 0.87

01:08:27.000 All the people I know from where I live are from like my high school, and none of them want to talk to me anymore because they all think I'm like a racist or something, which is unfortunate, but they're all low IQ anyway. 0.97

01:08:38.000 So it's not like I lost anything of value.

01:08:40.000 But now all my friends who I know from online are in like Arizona or they're in California or they're in Maryland or they're in Massachusetts or Kentucky or.

01:08:53.000 Michigan, Tennessee.

01:08:55.000 And so it's tough because it's like you'd like to get out and meet all these people and do all these things.

01:09:03.000 But plane tickets cost lots of money.

01:09:07.000 So, hey, I'm going to try to get out to Massachusetts for a speech in the fall when I kick off the college tour.

01:09:14.000 So we'll see.

01:09:15.000 I appreciate it, though.

01:09:16.000 Glad to hear I am welcome and Mr. Little is not.

01:09:20.000 Diego Alonso says, I'm a Spaniard.

01:09:22.000 Girlfriend is Filipino Catholic. 0.88

01:09:24.000 Convince me why I shouldn't marry when most white girls are unhappy thoughts. 0.85

01:09:29.000 Look, I don't really care what individuals do.

01:09:32.000 If you've fallen in love with a Filipina, Catholic, you know, by all means, make your own choice.

01:09:37.000 I don't believe there's anything inherently immoral. 1.00

01:09:40.000 That's the key operative immoral about race mixing. 1.00

01:09:45.000 And I've never said it's immoral, I've said it's degenerative. 1.00

01:09:48.000 I've said it is something I would not consider, and it's something that's not good for the health of the marriage or the children.

01:09:54.000 As long as you understand the risks, And you understand how to cope with those risks, then cautiously move forward.

01:10:03.000 But you have to remember the point of a marriage is not that you are happy.

01:10:08.000 And that's a very important thing.

01:10:10.000 People might say, oh, what? 0.98

01:10:11.000 That's ridiculous. 0.83

01:10:12.000 The point of the marriage is so that the children are being raised in a way that is healthy. 0.97

01:10:19.000 And so you're not shopping for just a wife.

01:10:21.000 I mean, you are, but you're also shopping for a mother.

01:10:24.000 Now, look, you have to get along with your wife.

01:10:28.000 So, that you can raise a family in a way that is healthy and is a good environment.

01:10:32.000 But you also have to find somebody that's going to create good offspring and is going to be a good mother to your children.

01:10:37.000 Now, odds are that if you race mix, if you marry outside your race, the rate at which people divorce when they race mix or when they marry outside their race increases dramatically.

01:10:49.000 The rate of domestic abuse increases dramatically. 0.72

01:10:53.000 The rate of mental illness in the children of mixed marriages increases dramatically.

01:10:58.000 The rate of drug use increases dramatically for the children.

01:11:01.000 And so there's a whole host of problems that are associated with this.

01:11:04.000 And people say, oh, that's cope. 0.87

01:11:06.000 You're just a racist.

01:11:07.000 No, of course not.

01:11:08.000 I come at it from the axiom that the purpose of family is to rear children in a way that is healthy and is conducive to them becoming virtuous and functioning members of society.

01:11:20.000 If you want that to happen, you have to have a strong and stable marriage.

01:11:23.000 If you want that to happen, you have to marry people that are pretty similar.

01:11:28.000 You have to marry somebody who is going to share the same fundamental principles, values, customs, and all the rest.

01:11:37.000 Maybe you figured it out.

01:11:39.000 Maybe you believe that you're able to do that.

01:11:41.000 By all means.

01:11:42.000 But you have to consider the children in that scenario.

01:11:45.000 That's all I'm saying.

01:11:47.000 So it's not rooted in some bigotry.

01:11:49.000 I see people who are intermarried.

01:11:52.000 I've got to be honest. 1.00

01:11:53.000 I don't feel like, oh, it's horrible that that's happening.

01:11:55.000 It's terrible.

01:11:56.000 I see it on television.

01:11:57.000 It pisses me off.

01:11:59.000 But the problem for me is when people are not thinking of the kids and what the real purpose is. 0.98

01:12:04.000 There's no reason why people should be marrying outside their race. 0.95

01:12:07.000 There really isn't. 1.00

01:12:08.000 It brings, nine times out of ten, nothing but trouble.

01:12:11.000 And why shouldn't anybody want that anyway?

01:12:13.000 People should love their own.

01:12:15.000 And when you see it from time to time, and this is what the liberal media likes to promote, you see it on every commercial, you see it on every television show. 0.60

01:12:23.000 They show black men and white women.

01:12:25.000 You see it everywhere now. 0.99

01:12:26.000 And really, don't take my word for it.

01:12:28.000 Watch television with that in mind.

01:12:30.000 You'll never be able to unsee it. 0.96

01:12:32.000 Every commercial, every sitcom, every movie, black husband, black boyfriend, white girlfriend, white wife.

01:12:42.000 What is the media trying to say? 0.99

01:12:43.000 Are they trying to say that black women are not good enough for black men? 0.99

01:12:46.000 Are they trying to say that black women don't appeal to black men? 1.00

01:12:50.000 I mean, some people might say if you have a problem with that, that's because you're a white supremacist. 0.98

01:12:54.000 On the contrary, why should black people not be able to marry within their own? 0.91

01:12:58.000 Are their own not good enough? 0.99

01:13:00.000 I mean, what are they trying to say when they inject white women into everything? 0.91

01:13:05.000 I think that says a lot more about the media than it does about the people who have a problem with it.

01:13:09.000 And this is something Muhammad Ali talked about as well.

01:13:11.000 So.

01:13:13.000 So that's my case.

01:13:15.000 Just make a sound decision.

01:13:17.000 Joshua Larson says, Ah, but Trump, or rather, but Nick.

01:13:22.000 Drumpf said this, Drumpf said that.

01:13:24.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:13:25.000 Mike H says, Nick, if you want to fully understand how child sex abuse works in Hollywood, watch an open secret on Vimeo.

01:13:32.000 It's free, very hard to watch.

01:13:35.000 I will check that out.

01:13:36.000 Michael Jones, what's your take on spanking? 1.00

01:13:39.000 Not too hard, mommy.

01:13:43.000 Just joking, of course.

01:13:44.000 Just a joke, just a little. 1.00

01:13:47.000 Just a little naughty joke there for all my dirty little fans out there. 0.98

01:13:53.000 For all my sick little fans out there who like that kind of humor. 0.99

01:13:57.000 Just joking. 0.99

01:13:59.000 I assume you mean spanking children as a punishment when raising them. 0.87

01:14:06.000 Obviously, if there were any other kind of spanking, that is not sexually moral, according to the Catholic Catechism.

01:14:12.000 So we really shouldn't even joke about it.

01:14:14.000 But with regard to spanking children, it's tough to say.

01:14:18.000 I mean, I know Stefan Molyneux is really against it.

01:14:21.000 He's really the only person I've ever heard talk about the subject.

01:14:25.000 I don't think I would spank my kids.

01:14:27.000 I was never spanked growing up. 1.00

01:14:29.000 I was spanked one time.

01:14:32.000 I don't really want to talk about it.

01:14:35.000 My mom loves to tell the story.

01:14:36.000 Whenever we used to get our haircuts, whenever we meet like anybody new, whenever we are at a family outing, we always tell the same story, which is that back in the day when me and my sister were really young, we went out into the car, which was in the driveway.

01:14:54.000 And for some reason, I don't really know the mechanics of the car, but.

01:14:57.000 My sister shifted it into neutral or something, or shifted it into.

01:15:02.000 I don't know.

01:15:03.000 I don't know what exactly happened.

01:15:05.000 The driver was on a little bit of an incline, so she shifted it out of.

01:15:08.000 I don't know what was going on with the ignition.

01:15:10.000 Not the ignition, the gear shift.

01:15:13.000 But she was able to shift it even though the keys were not in, even though the key was not turned or anything like that.

01:15:18.000 She was able to shift it into neutral because we were looking for something in the car, and the car rolled down the street.

01:15:25.000 And my mom was like, You drove the car. 1.00

01:15:27.000 So she spanked us, and it was brutal. 1.00

01:15:30.000 But I would probably not spank my kids. 0.93

01:15:32.000 I guess it's not good for them.

01:15:34.000 Then again, I'm also ethnic, so I'm sure my parents.

01:15:34.000 But I don't know.

01:15:37.000 Well, I think my dad got spanked.

01:15:39.000 I'm not sure. 1.00

01:15:40.000 On the Mexican side, I'm sure that went on.

01:15:43.000 But I'm not really sure, to be honest.

01:15:44.000 So I'm probably not informed enough to have a valid opinion.

01:15:49.000 Simon Skola says, I guess the Me Too movement excludes pedophiles.

01:15:53.000 Yeah, right? 0.76

01:15:54.000 Really makes you think all these rabbinical practices that go on. 0.97

01:15:59.000 Marcus Warner says, Pogo makes one joke video bashing gays.

01:16:04.000 And Disney casts him out. 0.96

01:16:05.000 There you go.

01:16:07.000 Jordan McArdle, fellas, we have to wake Walt Disney from his cryo chamber to cleanse his company of its occupiers.

01:16:13.000 Walt was woke.

01:16:15.000 Now he needs to be awake.

01:16:17.000 I like that.

01:16:17.000 That's good.

01:16:18.000 Got to happen.

01:16:19.000 We got to bring him back.

01:16:21.000 Samurai Spirit, Paul Adeen said it while being mugged. 0.90

01:16:24.000 A racist. 0.72

01:16:25.000 Yeah, right.

01:16:26.000 Joshua Larson says, Hi, Nick. 1.00

01:16:28.000 A Persia guy tried to attack me. 1.00

01:16:30.000 So Iran. 0.99

01:16:32.000 And I guess he didn't finish what he wrote there.

01:16:35.000 Malcolm Broda says, Will the Willowbrook Chick fil A be the capital of the ethnostate?

01:16:41.000 I don't know.

01:16:42.000 I think we're going to have to move a little bit west, to be honest.

01:16:45.000 If you're talking about Willowbrook, it's only a matter of time before the whole state of Illinois goes under. 0.99

01:16:50.000 I got to be honest, Illinois is a shithole, let me tell you. 0.98

01:16:54.000 I don't know why I live here anymore. 0.96

01:16:57.000 And, you know, I'm thinking about like settling down here because I love my community.

01:17:03.000 Where I live is a great place.

01:17:05.000 But by and large, Illinois is terrible.

01:17:07.000 I mean, the state is in debt.

01:17:09.000 The city's in debt. 1.00

01:17:10.000 There's a foreign invasion happening. 1.00

01:17:12.000 It's all Mexicans in Chicago or it's blacks in the South Side. 1.00

01:17:15.000 And not that there's anything wrong with that, but there's a problem with the violence and the speaking Spanish and living like you're in a third world country. 1.00

01:17:23.000 I don't like that. 1.00

01:17:25.000 And the taxes are crazy.

01:17:26.000 The expenses are crazy.

01:17:28.000 So I don't know.

01:17:29.000 Maybe I'm going to move.

01:17:31.000 I don't know where I would go, but I don't like it.

01:17:33.000 I want to make a ton of money.

01:17:34.000 Then I'm going to have to come back to Chicago and live in like a gated community somewhere where it reminds me of my childhood.

01:17:40.000 Who knows?

01:17:41.000 But, uh, Yeah, Willowbrook is going to be a little bit too close to the epicenter of the invasion.

01:17:48.000 Heavy Baker guy says So, Nick, I know you have abandoned us New Englanders, but have you heard of the Scott Lively campaign? 0.91

01:17:55.000 Basically, a prop pastor trying to ban the gay.

01:17:58.000 No, I haven't heard about that. 0.99

01:18:00.000 I'll have to check it out.

01:18:03.000 Skeleton says Looking forward to Jim being on Wednesday's show, Nick.

01:18:07.000 Been a fan of his content for a good six years now.

01:18:09.000 Let's get some knives in the chat.

01:18:11.000 Yeah, post them up, fellas. 0.99

01:18:13.000 Get your knives out.

01:18:14.000 Yeah, it'll be fun.

01:18:15.000 Mediker is coming on Wednesday.

01:18:18.000 Mr. Mediker will be here.

01:18:19.000 And then on Friday, we've got Mike Ma, who will be representing the Bronze Age Perfect. 0.75

01:18:24.000 So it'll be a good week.

01:18:26.000 Ball enthusiast says, How do you convince others to reject degeneracy?

01:18:30.000 Well, I'll let you know when it happens.

01:18:33.000 For the most part, people basically have to figure it out for themselves.

01:18:36.000 I think it's more a conversation about getting people to acknowledge that they have a problem, there is a solution, and you have to get from point A to point B.

01:18:46.000 That sounds very basic, but this is something that people have a problem with.

01:18:50.000 They know they're miserable.

01:18:52.000 Talk to anybody, they're miserable, who is not like a Christian and is not woke to this kind of thing. 1.00

01:18:59.000 They're miserable. 1.00

01:19:00.000 They're tired of the hookup stuff.

01:19:02.000 They don't have any strong interpersonal relationships between their friends or their family or with a loved one.

01:19:08.000 Very few cases is that an exception.

01:19:11.000 So, by and large, people are miserable.

01:19:13.000 You have to get people to self diagnose the problem as this vapid pursuit of carnal pleasure.

01:19:20.000 Now, the solution, of course, is to stop those activities.

01:19:23.000 You need to convince people if you get around to that, it'll be good for you.

01:19:27.000 You will feel better.

01:19:28.000 And then you need to get them to commit to going from here to there.

01:19:32.000 But a lot of people are addicted.

01:19:34.000 They're addicted to the hedonism.

01:19:35.000 They're addicted to this lifestyle, this dopamine release cycle.

01:19:40.000 And so it's a very difficult thing.

01:19:41.000 So people might not know that they have a problem.

01:19:45.000 If they know they have a problem, they might not know that this is the solution instead of eating right or working out.

01:19:50.000 I mean, those are, look, those are parts of it.

01:19:52.000 But you also need communion with God.

01:19:54.000 You also need a more traditional outlook.

01:19:57.000 They might know that that's the case, but they never get there.

01:19:59.000 So you need all those parts of the process.

01:20:05.000 Honestly, though, I talk to so many people, and it's like it really is dubious sometimes if it's worth it.

01:20:11.000 If it's somebody you really, really care about, you can do it, you can make it happen, and you should.

01:20:16.000 But so many people I've encountered, they are willing to throw you out like garbage if you start talking about this kind of stuff.

01:20:23.000 So I don't know.

01:20:24.000 For some people, it's a question of if they're even worth saving.

01:20:27.000 Sometimes you wonder how is the best way to reach them.

01:20:30.000 Some people, I think, need to get to a point of desperation before they're ready, because I know so many people, and don't be the enabler, where I see it all the time on Twitter.

01:20:39.000 People say, Oh, I want to kill myself.

01:20:41.000 I'm so sad. 0.99

01:20:43.000 I want to die.

01:20:44.000 You know, and this is a cry for attention. 0.98

01:20:47.000 I see this all day long from Twitter thoughts and from, you know, just weak men.

01:20:53.000 If you're a man, you should never do that.

01:20:56.000 Or people are like, I'm so sad.

01:20:59.000 Please DM me. 0.97

01:21:00.000 I'm going to kill myself. 0.97

01:21:02.000 You know, that kind of thing. 0.99

01:21:03.000 It's one thing if it's like here and there, or it's kind of a joke, it's tongue in cheek, or it's generally like, Like everything sucks. 0.82

01:21:11.000 It's all so tiresome.

01:21:13.000 I'm so tired, you know, that kind of thing.

01:21:14.000 But when people are doing that, cry for attention.

01:21:17.000 Do not indulge.

01:21:19.000 Simon Skola says, Can you say happy birthday, Boomer?

01:21:22.000 Stop eating weird flavors of Oreos and Pringles.

01:21:25.000 My dad loves your show.

01:21:26.000 Well, hey, love you too, big guy.

01:21:28.000 Love the Skola family.

01:21:31.000 Happy birthday, Boomer.

01:21:32.000 Stop eating weird flavors of Oreos and Pringles.

01:21:35.000 And that's from Simon.

01:21:37.000 So I hope it's a good one, folks.

01:21:39.000 Good to hear that it's a family experience.

01:21:42.000 It truly is a family show, right? 1.00

01:21:44.000 That's why it makes me a little uncomfortable, and I have to talk about the degenerate aspects of the culture or the swears. 0.98

01:21:51.000 You know, I was on Weekly Sweat, and they were like, I like Weekly Sweat Nick so much more. 0.95

01:21:55.000 He swears and he talks like a normal person and all that.

01:21:59.000 Well, it's a different clientele.

01:22:01.000 You know, I've got a reputation on here.

01:22:03.000 It's a family program, right?

01:22:05.000 But it looks like that's all our Streamlabs and Super Chats.

01:22:09.000 So we're going to call it a night.

01:22:11.000 Another hour and a half.

01:22:12.000 It's like an hour and a half every night.

01:22:13.000 We're going to have to figure out a way to cut it down.

01:22:15.000 I don't know.

01:22:16.000 I might have to raise the minimum on the Super Chats.

01:22:18.000 May have to cut down the answers.

01:22:20.000 I don't know.

01:22:21.000 But it's like every day, it's an hour and a half.

01:22:24.000 It's too much.

01:22:24.000 I'm dying.

01:22:26.000 When I do the show, it's like a tremendous energy is exerted, a tremendous mental and physical energy.

01:22:34.000 You know, when I get done with the show, it's like, oh, you know, I feel like a Jedi when he's just done a crazy thing with the Force.

01:22:44.000 I feel like, I don't want to make a reference to the sequel trilogy.

01:22:47.000 I feel like Yoda when he lifts up the X Wing and then he dies.

01:22:53.000 That's what I feel like.

01:22:54.000 It's tremendous exertion.

01:22:56.000 So, But that's going to do it for us on our show tonight.
