00:19:08.000Very excited to be back with you here this evening for our live reaction, analysis, and commentary after the second round of the second Democratic presidential primary debates.
00:19:54.000Unfortunately, yet again, thwarted again by
00:19:59.000Technology by the Industrial Technological Society.
00:20:03.000Nevertheless we went through a very grueling stream watching another debate and you know this one generally speaking was a little bit more entertaining than last night's debate.
00:20:13.000You know the deal, you know how it goes.
00:20:16.000They split up the 20 candidates who qualified for this second summer debate
00:21:09.000You know, as I said yesterday, and this was the case in the first round of the debates in June, generally it gets pretty boring and stale and mundane and repetitive after about the first hour, because just like in the first round of the debates and just like yesterday, the first 60 minutes it seems like for all the debates has been on health care and immigration, where again there seems to be legitimate substantive difference between the candidates.
00:21:34.000As I said yesterday, about after that 60 minute mark, it just devolves into posturing and a lot of the same slogans on issues that everybody agrees about.
00:21:44.000Climate change, gun control, prison reform, foreign policy, a lot of this kind of stuff.
00:21:49.000And I have to say that this debate we had a really heated first 90 minutes actually, and only after about 90 minutes did it start to dwindle down and die down.
00:21:58.000And sort of resemble last night's debates and the previous ones.
00:22:01.000So I was grateful at the very least that there was some action, that something was happening tonight that was not happening in any of the previous debates.
00:22:10.000And we're gonna go over and we'll look at what was talked about in pretty great detail, talk about some of the biggest dust-ups, exchanges of the night, and there were a lot of them.
00:22:19.000Tonight the topics they covered were health care, immigration, prison reform,
00:22:23.000The busing scandal that was talked about in the last debate, the racial divide in the country, climate change, the gender pay gap, and foreign policy.
00:22:32.000There were a couple of smaller topics in the middle, but those were the biggest issues.
00:22:38.000And like I said, the general themes that I saw was that Joe Biden seemed to be the center of the discussion.
00:22:44.000It became apparent right out of the gate that not only was Kamala Harris doubling down on her strategy from the first debate, but everybody else, or about four other candidates besides Kamala Harris, were doubling down on her strategy from the first debate as well.
00:23:00.000We saw attacks on Joe Biden direct explicit targeted attacks on Joe Biden from like I said five candidates on a lot of different issues for example he saw Kamala Harris attack Biden on health care
00:23:14.000We saw Cory Booker attack Joe Biden on prison reform.
00:23:17.000We saw Jay Inslee attack Joe Biden on climate change.
00:23:21.000We saw Gillibrand attack Joe Biden on the gender pay gap.
00:23:24.000And we saw, I believe, Julian Castro attack him on one issue, which I don't have in my notes here.
00:23:30.000Overall you had just about all the attacks, all the major exchanges where people attacking Joe Biden, and not only were they attacking him on the busing issue which was brought up in this debate as was the case originally in the first debate in June, but on all kinds of other issues.
00:23:47.000In light of that, Joe Biden actually did pretty good.
00:23:50.000You know, like I said in the last debate, what was so devastating about Kamala Harris' attack in the June debate on the issue of the busing and segregation and all this, was not even so much the attack.
00:24:02.000And the attack was effective enough, the first one, but it was that Joe Biden didn't know how to respond, he hadn't prepared for it, and he never recovered from it.
00:24:10.000So that attack happened probably about midway through the first debate,
00:24:14.000And that sabotaged the rest of his performance.
00:24:16.000He was choking, wasn't really giving compelling answers, and this time around he was prepared, even in spite of the fact, or I'm sorry, Bill de Blasio was the fifth attack, not Castro.
00:24:26.000So, for anybody who's paying attention, there was not Castro attacked him, he was not the fifth, it was de Blasio.
00:24:31.000So, in any case, he was attacked by five different candidates on something like four or five different issues, and in spite of the fact that you had all this heat coming on him from all these different directions on all these issues, he seemed to be competent enough at parrying each attack.
00:24:48.000Now there was some, some he answered better than others, some were weaker than others, but generally speaking I thought in light of all these attacks it was a relatively strong performance by Biden.
00:24:57.000So I think that if anybody won this debate tonight, I imagine, and this is going to be a little controversial, some are saying that Biden was weak because of the attacks and he's out.
00:25:07.000Some are saying he was strong because of the attacks and he's in.
00:25:10.000I say that overall he came out on top.
00:25:15.000And I say this for a very specific reason.
00:25:19.000In the first debate, I said that if these attacks continue on Biden, and it's the same sort of glass jaw premise that we saw with the first one, that he's not able to bounce back, not able to recover, not resilient,
00:25:32.000Getting attacked from progressives on different issues.
00:25:36.000He's not gonna make it because it's a 20 person primary now It's gonna be probably a 8 to 10 person primary for the foreseeable future if he is this fragile He's not gonna make it another 9 or 10 months, whatever it is until next February But I think what we saw tonight is that he is quite resilient you saw that in each case and it was actually sort of
00:25:56.000It was impressive, because when I see Joe Biden, I see sort of an old, fragile man who is getting a little bit confused.
00:26:04.000I saw in some speeches he was slurring his words.
00:26:07.000When he doesn't have all the makeup on, he doesn't actually look well.
00:26:11.000And so for him to get attacked in multiple instances, to bring up the record of each person attacking him, shows that I think he's still in this race.
00:26:21.000You know, for example, when Cory Booker attacked him on
00:27:05.000What was important, what is important, and what is his winning issue, which is electability.
00:27:11.000You know, it would be a big mistake for him to go on the debate stage and try to out left-wing Julian Castro, try to out progressive Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, try to out climate change alarmist Jay Inslee.
00:27:24.000He went up there and he made the case, even though it wasn't tremendously popular in the audience.
00:27:30.000But I think a lot of the people watching at home maybe found it refreshing to hear somebody say that, yeah, I mean, people that are crossing the border illegally are going to be returned home, you know, and that's going to remain a criminal offense.
00:27:51.000And we're not going to make private health insurance illegal.
00:27:54.000So I don't think it played totally well in that audience, because who's in the audience at a Democratic debate?
00:28:00.000It's the donors, it's friends of the candidates, it's uber left-wing people.
00:28:05.000So he capitalized on the issue that makes his campaign work, the reason why he's number one in the polls, and I think for a lot of the people watching the debate, particularly in the swing states that matter, namely some of the swing states that'll be the first caucus in primary states,
00:28:20.000Like Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, South Carolina.
00:28:23.000He made the case to them that he's a moderate, centrist, electable candidate.
00:28:27.000One who's not crazy, one who's not going to fundamentally transform the country and all this, but somebody who is a democrat and not a socialist, not some progressive radical.
00:28:37.000And I think there are some things in his policies on his platform which are more radical than what we've seen traditionally.
00:28:43.000But of course, compared to some of these other yahoos on the stage, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Julian Castro, comes off as relatively moderate and sensible.
00:28:52.000So I think, in spite of the attacks, and I've been looking at Predicted, I've been looking at Maxim Lott and Jon Stossel's betting markets, I've been looking at Twitter.
00:29:01.000On the betting markets, he, I think, went down one cent on Predicted.
00:29:05.000On the betting fair by Lott and Stossel, he had no change in the last four hours.
00:29:10.000And on Twitter, people are saying that he's won.
00:29:12.000If we're going to pick winners and losers, I would say the Biden right out of the gate.
00:29:17.000My general takeaway is that was the clear theme of the debate.
00:29:21.000I think he was able to fend off the attacks competently, and that I think proves that he's a viable candidate.
00:29:27.000To me, the biggest loser is probably Kamala Harris, unfortunately.
00:29:30.000You know, I think that might be surprising for a lot of people.
00:29:33.000Because in the last debate, she was the clear winner of the second debate, and you don't have to believe me, a lot of people disagreed.
00:29:39.000A lot of people said, oh no, no, Yang won the second debate, or you know, Tulsi Gabbard won the debates overall, or something.
00:29:46.000But if you look at the media coverage after the second debate, or rather after the first debate, the second round of the first debates, if you look at the polling, if you look at the volume of online stories about the different candidates, if you look at the time spent in legacy media on the candidates,
00:30:01.000Kamala Harris benefited tremendously from the first debate and specifically, obviously, her attack on Joe Biden.
00:30:09.000She had something like 22% of legacy media coverage was focused on her.
00:30:14.000She had a big surge in online stories.
00:30:16.000She went up in the polls drastically in the betting markets.
00:30:19.000So for anybody that was doubting whether or not she was the winner of the first debate, all the data says that she probably made the biggest gains from that outing.
00:30:28.000This time around it seemed like it didn't really work so well.
00:30:31.000Not only were her attacks against Biden not very effective, you know, we looked at the little exchange on healthcare.
00:30:38.000It went back and forth to the point where there wasn't really a clear winner, and like any of the attacks from one on the other landed particularly well.
00:30:46.000But one of the biggest exchanges of the night was not between Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, like was the case in the second round of the first debate.
00:30:54.000It was Tulsi Gabbard on Kamala Harris.
00:30:56.000And if you remember, she got one of the biggest applause lines of the night.
00:30:59.000Tulsi Gabbard calling out Kamala Harris for her record as a prosecutor in California and as an elected representative in California.
00:31:07.000Talking about how, you know, she was tough on black people and she was basically wrong on prison and all this.
00:31:13.000And everybody knows that's really the elephant in the room.
00:31:16.000Kamala Harris is going and she's campaigning as
00:31:18.000Though she's this woke on race and she's a progressive and all this and she's gonna take down Joe Biden.
00:31:25.000But everybody knows that when she was in California, not only was she a total whore and slept her way to the top, but also she was not exactly a friend to the black community or to people of color or anything like that.
00:31:36.000And so that Tulsi Gabbard called her out.
00:32:01.000You know, she kept sort of retreating back to, well, we can talk about what we want on the stage, but it matters how you govern when you're elected.
00:33:00.000We'll have to see some online polls overnight and also people are looking at volume of search trends on Google and things like that.
00:33:07.000I think if you look at search trends, Tulsi Gabbard was number one, Kamala was number two, Biden and Yang were number three.
00:33:13.000I don't place too much stock in that though, by the way.
00:33:16.000We'll have to see what the numbers look like.
00:33:18.000After about a week to really get an idea of who won and who lost but right out of the gate I think that's my general idea.
00:33:24.000We're going to break down and we're going to go through issue by issue sort of what happened and then I'll give you some sort of larger metapolitical conclusions about this debate and these two debates the second round of debates overall.
00:33:36.000So they started out talking about health care.
00:33:39.000I mean it's it's actually painful that not only do you have I mean we've had four debates in one month with 20 candidates
00:33:47.000So just the volume is obnoxious and annoying.
00:33:51.000Not only do you have that going for you, but you also have the same topics in the same order for every debate.
00:33:59.000So it's bad enough that we have to suffer and sit through two separate debates on two occasions in a matter of one month, but also it's the same exact topics for two and a half hours in the same exact order.
00:34:12.000You know, in the 1st June debate, in the 2nd June debate, in the 1st July debate, the 2nd July debate, it's healthcare, immigration, climate change, and then some combination of criminal justice reform, foreign policy, gun policy, but it's all the same.
00:34:27.000So as we did for the last three debates, we started with healthcare.
00:34:31.000And this time around is a pretty vigorous debate, as was the case yesterday and last month between so-called establishment and progressive candidates.
00:34:43.000Are you in favor of Medicare for all and making private insurance illegal?
00:34:47.000Or are you in favor of a public option, Medicare for all who want it, where you're still gonna have private insurance, still an employment-based health care system, generally private-public,
00:35:40.000It costs, I think you said 3 or 30 trillion dollars and basically there's big problems with your plan.
00:35:47.000It's just not tenable and we're not gonna, we don't want to outlaw private insurance.
00:35:51.000That's not good for the working class.
00:35:53.000That's a totally accurate criticism and one that polls really well.
00:35:57.000You know, we talked about this last night.
00:35:59.000If you look at the polling on Medicare for all versus public option,
00:36:02.000The polling is abysmal for Medicare for All, for Republicans, for Independents, and it's not stellar for Democrats.
00:36:10.000Whereas public option polls well with everybody, polls relatively well with Republicans, polls really well with Independents, and polls exceptionally well with Democrats.
00:38:13.000But ultimately, even in the meantime, they want free universal health care.
00:38:17.000You know, they want universal health care.
00:38:19.000And this is even what John Delaney says.
00:38:21.000He says, well, I'm against Medicare for All, but I'm still in favor of universal health care.
00:38:25.000So whether it's in 10 years or in, you know, a couple months or whatever it is, that's really the bottom line on the health care issue.
00:38:32.000All this debate about plans and affordability, I don't think people really know about this stuff.
00:38:37.000It's clear that the preference in the Democratic Party is for public option.
00:38:41.000Public option polls better among Democrats.
00:38:43.000Still some big support for Medicare for All.
00:38:46.000It's really going to come down to who can make a better case in the sense that
00:38:50.000What the progressives have going for them is they say that medicare for all is this revolutionary we're going to start from the bottom and totally turn the political system upside down and bring about this new new country and all this and the moderate argument which is that's not going to work and it doesn't even so much matter that's not going to work but it's not going to get us elected.
00:39:13.000You know, so the public option argument, like with the establishment and the moderate people, it doesn't sound good, but they say, you know, we have to win elections.
00:39:20.000So it's going to come down to, in Iowa and New Hampshire and Nevada and South Carolina next year, whether primary voters care about electability or whether they care about, you know, ideology.
00:39:31.000All the polling says that people put electability before ideology.
00:39:34.000So I think that, you know, Medicare for All, it has its strengths as a rhetorical
00:39:39.000As a rhetorical tool, you know, to say that, well, I'm more progressive and I want to turn, I want to set the world on fire and turn the country upside down.
00:39:47.000But I think that public option is probably the winner.
00:39:49.000I think Joe Biden made a great case for it tonight.
00:39:51.000But again, it's all effectively redundant.
00:39:54.000Democrats are winning on health care, whether it's public option or Medicare for all.
00:40:00.000On immigration we had a debate, just like in all the previous ones, about decriminalization of illegal immigration.
00:40:07.000You had Julian Castro, who very forcefully made this an issue in the first debate, saying we actually need to go in and not only give a pathway to citizenship, not only reinstate DACA and DAPA and TPS and all this, and expand legal immigration, but also we have to decriminalize illegal immigration and make it a civil offense
00:40:48.000Open borders is a Republican talking point.
00:41:10.000Deblasio and Booker basically double teamed Biden on this issue.
00:41:15.000This was after Harris sort of went after him on health care.
00:41:18.000Then Booker and Deblasio came after Biden because under the Obama administration, which Biden served in pretty prominently as the vice president, they deported a lot of people, right?
00:41:40.000And anyway, what Obama tried to do is like re reinvent the whole political calculus around immigration, try to achieve comprehensive immigration reform.
00:41:49.000I don't think that was a totally effective rebuttal.
00:41:54.000Maybe on the side of a little bit of a loss for Biden on that one but ultimately again I think the people watching this debate are saying we can't beat Donald Trump on open borders and probably a lot of Democratic voters in themselves are saying we don't want open borders you know.
00:42:09.000So Joe Biden came back pretty strongly and I was shocked actually because in the first round of the debates and last night we didn't hear anything like this but he said straight up and explicitly yeah
00:42:20.000We have to prosecute illegal border crossers.
00:42:23.000If you apply for asylum, that's different.
00:42:26.000But if you come across the border illegally, we are going to deport you.
00:42:30.000And I was shocked to hear that because nobody has said anything like that so far in this race that we're actually going to get serious about illegal immigration.
00:42:39.000That didn't go over well, again, in the debate audience.
00:44:04.000So I think Biden was smart to go against the crowd, go against the grain a little bit, and say, yeah, we are actually going to prosecute illegals.
00:44:13.000Again, didn't go over well in the audience, but I think the broader audience, the television audience, people watching at home, I think that was a smart move for him.
00:44:21.000And a smart play, again, as the electable moderate who can beat Trump, which is what he's going for.
00:44:36.000Joe Biden retaliated by talking about Cory Booker's time as mayor, how he brought in somebody from the Rudy Giuliani mayoral office in New York City to implement zero tolerance, stop and frisk, and some other things.
00:44:48.000I don't think this dust-up harmed either one, particularly the
00:44:53.000Cory Booker at one point made this very funny, he said this very funny idiom about Kool-Aid.
00:44:58.000He said, uh, Joe Biden's dipping in the Kool-Aid and he doesn't even know the flavor, which I thought that was very urban.
00:45:04.000Very, very authentic black moment from Cory Booker.
00:45:08.000Very authentic urban moment from Cory Booker when he used the old Kool-Aid expression.
00:45:14.000Ah yes, Cory Booker gonna be invited to them barbecues.
00:45:17.000You know Cory Booker gets invited to the barbecues and he, you know, he talks in the barbershop and all that.
00:46:12.000So all this stuff about, you know, mass incarceration, racially discriminatory or racially motivated prejudiced crime policies, like we know where that comes from.
00:46:55.000He's in favor of locking up criminals.
00:46:57.000This guy's more base than Donald Trump and he's trying to run away from it trying to say oh no no no but I was against I was against all these tough criminal justice laws and oh no
00:48:22.000My ears and eyes were bleeding when she said, um, like,
00:48:27.000I'm like a white woman and I feel that like as like a white woman I have to recognize like my white privilege and like I'm gonna go back to all the white women in like New York and tell them about their like white privilege and I'm like gonna say your son like isn't going to get shot by police like because of his white privilege and it was just the most cringe answer at the very least it should be a wake-up call to people in America
00:48:53.000Or people watch this show who comment on my videos or in the super chats and live chat and they say, Nick, you're too hard on women.
00:49:02.000Nick, you're counter signaling our women, our European women.
00:49:06.000If this has not woken you up to the white woman question, I don't know what else will.
00:49:10.000Go back, watch that answer and sit through the whole thing and then tell me there's not something going on there, right?
00:49:17.000Then tell me these people are not more problematic than other demographics which are named pretty frequently, right?
00:49:22.000I'm like gonna go back to all my other white women friends and tell them they have white privilege?
00:49:28.000There's nothing to me that's more off-putting about these people, and I am talking unironically about Democrats in this instance,
00:49:39.000She's the breadwinner of her household.
00:49:41.000She's the primary caretaker and the primary breadwinner.
00:49:44.000She's up on this presidential debate stage in a, you know, lady suit.
00:49:47.000And, like, my son is over there, and I raised him, and I make all the money, and I'm gonna lecture moms about their children, saying that their children
00:51:07.000Gillibrand said, well when I was serving in the Senate or when I was serving in the Congress, Joe Biden opposed my bill to pass affordable child care because he said that if we passed affordable child care it would destroy the family and it would take women away from their responsibilities at home.
00:53:52.000It's gonna give me big media coverage.
00:53:53.000It's gonna give me a boost in the polls.
00:53:55.000This has actually had an opposite effect.
00:53:58.000Because so many people did it, the story will be, I think, in the media, everybody's attacking Joe Biden.
00:54:03.000So, you know, Jay Inslee might go into this thinking, I'm going to attack Joe Biden on climate change and foreign policy, and I'll get covered.
00:54:11.000I'll have this big hit, an effective attack, and this will be the sound by tomorrow, and people will pay attention to me, and I'll qualify for the third debate.
00:54:19.000But so many people, six people attacked him throughout the debate, and so instead of all these individual attacks, it's gonna be Joe Biden.
00:54:27.000The media coverage tomorrow will be Joe Biden under attack.
00:54:30.000Joe Biden was attacked by five people.
00:55:39.000QAnon did not tell me about a certain tape that may or may not exist.
00:55:42.000You know, so there's some lewd things that go on in her personal history, and there's also...
00:55:48.000Her record, which is out there in the open, which is not secret, which is that she was no friend to blacks or left-wing people or progressives when she was actually in elected office.
00:55:56.000So I think that that being exposed tonight, particularly effectively by Tulsi Gabbard, will be big for her.
00:56:03.000The other takeaway, I think, is regarding Andrew Yang and Tulsi Gabbard.
00:56:08.000I have to say it was so funny throughout the debate.
00:56:10.000By the way, Yang had a great performance tonight.
00:56:14.000Last time around I said he did maybe the worst or the second worst.
00:56:18.000He talked two times for a total of about a minute or two minutes and the only times people are talking about him in the media everybody said Yang won the debate.
00:56:26.000Didn't surge in the polls, didn't surge in the betting markets, but they said oh he was he was one of the most searched candidates or he won this poll.
00:56:33.000All right that was Tulsi Gabbard, but people are saying oh Yang is trending on Twitter.
00:57:19.000He packaged his talking points in a clean and effective way.
00:57:23.000You know, last time I heard him trying basically to speed run through his stump speech, because I've heard a stump speech like five times now.
00:57:30.000So in his opening statement last time, I heard him try to cram like five minutes of buzzwords and all that from the stump speech into a one minute time limit.
00:57:39.000This time around, I think he packaged them in a way that was effective.
00:58:23.000How do you fix the racial divide in the country?
00:58:25.000Well, the reason there's an impending race war and blacks and whites are at each other's throats and beating each other up is because they're not comfortable.
00:59:46.000She got to talk about it two times, and both times I felt it was lackluster.
00:59:50.000You know, the biggest applause line of the night was attacking Kamala, and that'll be a big soundbite for her.
00:59:56.000Maybe that's driving a lot of the Google traffic, and maybe that'll be a win for her.
01:00:00.000You know, maybe I'll be corrected in the coming days or weeks.
01:00:03.000But to me, that soundbite is more about Kamala Harris being weakened.
01:00:06.000Kamala Harris is the major candidate, getting a chunk taken out of her, than it is about Tulsi Gabbard being against regime change wars and being
01:00:14.000Sensible and maybe a little bit right-wing.
01:00:16.000Maybe being a legitimate person who can take Trump voters away.
01:00:19.000So I don't think she's capitalizing on her brand, you know, like Yang was.
01:03:15.000But this was the last major opportunity on a national stage for her to introduce herself to the public and say, I'm Tulsi Gabbard, this is what I stand for, this is what separates me from the others.
01:03:25.000The times when she did talk about what differentiates herself, she didn't do it effectively.
01:03:29.000She didn't do it in a compelling manner.
01:03:57.000Google search trends and a dollar will buy you a cup of coffee.
01:04:00.000What you need to do is make memorable moments.
01:04:03.000You need to convince a lot of people that you're serious to say your name when they get called or asked when they get called by the pollsters in the coming weeks.
01:04:12.000You know, I saw Biden on brand, Yang on brand, Kamala on brand, Booker on brand, everybody's on brand, and Tulsi is just, oh yeah, like, you know, border security and like whatever, and like, you know, again, going back to even on foreign policy when she gets asked.
01:04:27.000Well, this is personal to me because I was a medic and I saw the cost of war firsthand, okay?
01:04:32.000And we need to stop these regime change wars.
01:06:40.000In the general election, but it's clear from who's running, who's running the Democratic Party, that this is not going to be a repeat performance, right?
01:06:49.000If Biden goes up and maybe wins the primary, maybe wins the election, you're not going to get another Biden in the Democratic Party ever again.
01:06:56.000The whole stage will be Bookers and Buttigieg's and Beto's and all the... Well, Beto's white, but he's pretending to be Hispanic.
01:10:13.000Maybe I'll go Turkey Club, maybe I'll go Steak, maybe I'll go, hey what the hell, maybe I'll go Sirloin Steak, or maybe I'll go T-Bone, New York Strip, I don't know.
01:10:22.000But yeah, I gotta get some attendees or something tonight, because I'm hungry.
01:10:27.000Yeah, last night she forgot the coleslaw though, that was the only problem.
01:13:21.000And making fun of her for what... I forget the exact insults, but everyone was calling her names and stuff when she went up to give her speech.
01:14:03.000The good news is I never lost an election ever again.
01:14:06.000I rebounded to become the president of student council in sixth grade, the president of student council in eighth grade, second vice president, vice president, and president of student council my sophomore, junior, and senior year of high school.
01:14:30.000But yeah, that's that's totally the vibe I get from Jill Brand like no more homework and Like vending machines in the cafeteria and like I'm gonna drive my Malibu Stacy car and I'm a cheerleader Punch punch rhetorically speaking punch in the face Rhetorically speaking in Minecraft.
01:14:50.000Just kidding Behold nurses Michael Bennett is dr. Steve Brule changed my mind.
01:18:16.000Venti in the castle, gotta save her from Bowser.
01:18:20.000Checked, yeah, and we're smashing the coins, smashing blocks for super chats.
01:18:24.000Very red-pilled chat tonight, very big-brained chat.
01:18:28.000Yolts says, hey big guy, I know you're doing a show on the Democratic debates, but I feel the need to ask a completely off-topic question because I'm a dummy.
01:18:36.000Which is worse, rich Nica racism or broke Nica racism?
01:18:41.000Well, you know, rich Nica racism, that's that don't touch anything in the store, right?
01:18:49.000but yeah that's uh that's funny that's very that's very aware of you very meta to comment on dumb super chatters asking irrelevant questions but very based very based uh yeezus question right what song is that one from that is from
01:19:06.000That's from New Slaves as well, right?
01:19:09.000Natively says, your streams slash debates are great to listen to while playing a good game of Civ V or Hearts of Iron IV.
01:19:16.000Honestly, I think that's the only way to get through them.
01:19:18.000Because I don't have the attention span to listen through an hour, two hours of content, let alone five days a week.
01:19:24.000But I could see myself doing that at the gym, at work,
01:19:29.000playing a game you know like in the background because i'm always looking for content to put on in the background you know like to have something going while i'm doing something else and uh it's perfect for that you know i mean maybe to sit and watch live i think it works if you're doing it live but to watch a replay it's kind of hard but if you have it in the background it's perfect very kino application uh yorn says european climate change hysteria a distraction
01:22:42.000I didn't expect the bag to sell, but they've been selling a lot of them.
01:22:47.000Pete Skepsis says Slavs literally do not even have a history except for being warned around by Germans, taught how to read by Greeks, being yoked by Mongols, and being terrorized by Bolsheviks.
01:22:58.000All right, well let's take it easy on our Slavic friends.
01:23:45.000Fish says, do Super Chatters give you Michael Bennett energy?
01:23:48.000Yeah, I read them all in Michael Bennett's voice in my head.
01:23:51.000Donald Trump says, Nick, I have a spare copy of Schindler's List in 4K UHD signed by Steven Spielberg and Wolf Blitzer if you'd like me to send you one.
01:23:59.000Uh, yeah, yeah, just, uh, just drop it off at your local dumpster.
01:25:13.000Yeah, so so Andrew Yang, they're like fine you you figure it out now and Andrew Yang is there like this, you know at the glasses Finally now we get to use the AVA units, you know call in Shinji And that's Yang, you know, we're we're not messing around about this climate change stuff We have to we have to go to steel, right?
01:26:12.000Yeah, absolutely Dan says any thoughts on SSPX churches still new to Catholicism and current churches paused AF all other churches near me are Protestant or Spanish Thanks King.
01:26:24.000I don't know man as long as you're going to a Catholic Church it really Look every time I hate to say this but like every time I go anywhere anymore It's the same conversation.
01:26:35.000Have you ever been to a traditional Latin mass?
01:27:25.000You're there to get your holy communion.
01:27:26.000You're there to get your bread and your wine.
01:27:29.000And, you know, maybe go to confession.
01:27:31.000If it's a little bit paused, I don't say something politically that I agree with.
01:27:36.000It doesn't, like, ruin my experience, you know?
01:27:39.000I can handle the cognitive dissonance for, you know, 10-15 minutes, however long the homily is, you know, but I heard something I didn't like in my church.
01:28:01.000They hear something they don't like, and to me, like, the smart response is, I hear a lot of things I don't agree with, and I'm like, oh, like, okay.
01:28:09.000I have a lot of friends that say things I don't agree with, and I'm like, yeah, like, whatever.
01:28:12.000I don't agree with, I don't care enough to argue.
01:28:14.000Or I see a video on YouTube, and I don't care enough to, like, leave a really incisive comment.
01:28:20.000I'm like, oh, like, I don't agree with that, whatever.
01:28:23.000But an NPC, they can't contain themselves.
01:28:25.000They're like, I don't agree, and here's why.
01:28:29.000And here's why you're wrong, and I'm right.
01:28:40.000I mean, I really don't like rap music, and here's why you're wrong.
01:28:43.000and you're stupid and you know rock music is the better music okay these people it's like they go crazy town because they experience cognitive dissonance just this is why we don't teach people to read this is the book question this is why people weren't taught to read for thousands of years read books read books what's a book list you don't even know how to read you shouldn't know how to read
01:29:04.000A thousand years ago, you wouldn't know how to read.
01:29:06.000Nibbas be like, return to tradition, but here's my library!
01:29:10.000Uh, sorry, peasants didn't have libraries, frankly.
01:29:14.000I know it's gonna be unpopular, but it's totally true.
01:29:17.000Anyway, attend, uh, yeah, SSPX is good.
01:31:35.000So yeah, next time you see a news story of somebody getting the shit kicked out of them in Chicago or Detroit, remember you're paying for the privilege.
01:31:43.000Remember you're going to be in the infirmary, you're going to be in the hospital and saying to yourself, I'm glad I'm working.
01:31:50.000I'm glad when I work my money goes to the people that just assailed me.
01:31:59.000That's what we have to look forward to in our country, you know?
01:32:04.000Anyway, uh, Naj says, my four-year-old unironically says, pee-pee poo-poo and my wife gets so mad at me because I always crack up thinking about how he sounds like an America first.
01:32:13.000Superchat, by the way, good evening hoodie is amazing.
01:32:59.000The America First writing is two great friends of mine from college who are studying philosophy and you know, it's about political theory and current events.
01:33:07.000It's not just a creative outlet for any random asshole who wants to write about whatever they want.
01:33:57.000Thank you for the it is generous for you to offer your creative writing enough to use me as like a vessel for your writing But sorry current events politics only Boomer questions is Harris got btf owed mommy Harris got btf owed by mommy on criminal justice.
01:34:14.000Hopefully she falls so Warren can pick up steam
01:34:37.000I'm surprised he didn't think of something like that.
01:34:39.000It's no shade at him, but yeah, we should definitely do no e-girls.
01:34:45.000shirt or a sweatshirt some kind of a design there how could you not right uh but yeah okay thanks for the hugs and kisses it's like when you go to the family party and people you know when you're a kid and people are hugging and kissing it's like oh yeah hi great to see you maybe that's just me i'm realizing maybe that's a me thing probably other people love to hug and kiss their relatives they're like great to see you it's only like me that's like oh okay hi you know great to see you
01:35:10.000You know, I'm talking about big family gatherings, you know.
01:38:09.000I think you should still have private insurance.
01:38:12.000Obviously, the system is broken with Medicare, with the pricing, the record system.
01:38:17.000But what I think should happen is that everybody should get guaranteed insurance up to a certain point, you know, like emergency insurance, and should be able to buy supplemental insurance on top of that.
01:38:29.000So it's not like medicare for all where only the government is paying for health care and you know no private entity can pay health care providers but it should be that maybe the government has a medicare-like thing for everybody but it's only for it's like high deductible and it's like for emergencies like if you get hit by a car and you're like dying you're not gonna have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars but
01:38:53.000You still are able to buy supplemental private insurance on top of that.
01:38:56.000Something like that, I think, would be ideal.
01:38:58.000But then again, I'm not, I'm not really an expert on healthcare.
01:42:03.000Throb Schneider with a big super chat, thank you so much.
01:42:06.000He says, are healthy meals try the ultimate red pill, the red meat pill.
01:42:11.000Not sure if your Irish, Italian, Mexican, African heritage, pasta, potatoes, tortillas, flaminato cheetos, respectively, makes the no carb feasible for you though.
01:44:11.000Well, I'm not a billionaire, but I am a genius, you know?
01:44:13.000But I'm going to become one of these sorts of characters, sort of like this shadowy, mysterious, enigmatic character, inaccessible to most people.
01:44:22.000Maybe, you know, but maybe there's something on his mind, you know?
01:44:25.000Maybe he's conspiring or something, you know?
01:45:41.000And just because you understand the mission and its importance, you don't want to get paid.
01:45:45.000You just want to live in the compound and, you know, just, you know, in a cult-like fashion and just, you know, and do chores around the house so that I can focus on what I do best.
01:47:22.000I think I would probably have done it because this is my aptitude.
01:47:46.000For most people, I don't recommend it.
01:47:47.000It takes a very specific skill set and moreover, political content is not monetizable.
01:47:54.000You know the ad revenues going away the super chats are being hard.
01:47:58.000You know they're being hard on us with the Monetization with the super chats stream labs is being mean to us discords being mean to us So it's like you're jumping onto a sinking ship if you're doing right-wing political content It's like should have gotten into it when it was when there were more opportunities now There's a lot less so I would advise against it generally that I have to give you my advice but um
01:50:46.000And his last name, and the last name is Hunt for that, thanks, says, understand your takes on politics and churches, but my local church has its columns painted pink and blue for trans rights.
01:51:00.000Well, I said Catholic Church, Catholic Church, Novus Ordo Church, not Protestant, so I'm talking about Catholic Church.
01:51:06.000Don't think that's a Catholic Church, but if it is, I'd be surprised.
01:51:09.000I'm talking about Novus Ordo in particular.
01:51:11.000A lot of these trad cats are like, you got,
01:51:16.000If you go on a traditional Latin mass, you gotta go, Nick.
01:51:29.000I invariably, every time I hang out, not only is the only thing we talk about politics, but it's always, oh Nick, have you ever been to a traditional?
01:51:53.000This is why I like, you know That's why I wish I had my friends from high school because at least there's some variety, you know anyway anyway Yolts says Nick Pagan here.
01:52:04.000I have been hearing arguments about Jesus facial features.
01:52:06.000Perhaps this could convert atheists into believers and
01:53:21.000It's just a very specific category of women we have a problem with.
01:53:24.000And there are these ones that are riding the carousel, and they're vulgar and lewd and crude, and they have mini bangs and septum rings and dyed hair and tattoos, and they're pudgy and lumpy.
01:53:40.000And that's what we have a problem with.
