00:03:00.000 wall.
00:12:03.000 It's going to be only America first.
00:12:08.000 America first.
00:13:51.000 Good evening, everybody!
00:13:52.000 We're watching America First.
00:13:54.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.
00:13:56.000 We've got a great show for you tonight.
00:13:58.000 Very excited to be with you this Friday evening.
00:14:01.000 Wow.
00:14:02.000 Thank God it's Friday.
00:14:03.000 Am I right?
00:14:04.000 Been a long week, but we are finally here, and we've got a little bit of a call in show for you.
00:14:10.000 Now, normally, lately, we haven't been doing the call in shows on Friday.
00:14:16.000 We tried doing every other week.
00:14:19.000 People didn't really like that.
00:14:20.000 So now I guess we're trying.
00:14:22.000 What, every three weeks, I guess?
00:14:24.000 So I don't know how you would say that.
00:14:27.000 Not every other week, every third week.
00:14:30.000 Now, I guess we'll be doing the call in shows.
00:14:34.000 And if it doesn't work tonight, then maybe we'll just move to once a month.
00:14:37.000 But I'm excited.
00:14:38.000 I know you guys are excited.
00:14:40.000 I know some people are just way too excited for the call in shows.
00:14:44.000 Maybe those are the people that ruined it for everybody else.
00:14:48.000 But we got a good one.
00:14:49.000 It's going to be casual, cozy, low key.
00:14:52.000 I'm in just a regular button down shirt, no necktie.
00:14:56.000 So, it's going to be a casual one here on this Friday.
00:15:00.000 And I'm feeling pretty good.
00:15:01.000 You know, it's been a rough week.
00:15:03.000 It's been a rough year for us, for the movement, for our people, for Europa.
00:15:10.000 But we're going to try and have a little bit of fun tonight.
00:15:13.000 We're going to have just, like I said, a low key call in show.
00:15:16.000 Really not high pressure, high intensity.
00:15:19.000 I'll be getting a haircut this weekend, so we should be back at it on Monday.
00:15:24.000 But I will say that next week we're not going to have shows Wednesday, Thursday, or.
00:15:30.000 Which you may know why.
00:15:32.000 I'll announce why towards the end of the show.
00:15:34.000 We're trying to keep it a little bit low key, trying to keep it a little bit on the down low.
00:15:39.000 But just remember, next week is not going to be, we're only going to have a couple of shows.
00:15:44.000 But we're going to dive right into it here.
00:15:46.000 Let me just post the link in the live chat so we can get started straight away.
00:15:51.000 Don't want to waste any time here because, of course, the call-in shows are now precious and rare.
00:15:59.000 So let me get that link in there as fast as possible so we can start.
00:16:03.000 Getting some people in there, and we will begin taking your calls here.
00:16:08.000 Let me get it all squared away.
00:16:13.000 The headset going, and turn on my desktop audio.
00:16:22.000 I think we should be all set up and good to go here.
00:16:28.000 So let's see who are we going to hear from first.
00:16:30.000 I hope that link is working so everybody can.
00:16:33.000 Sort of get in there, and it looks like people are simply pouring in, pouring into the Discord, ready to join the call in here.
00:16:42.000 And let's see, why don't we start with why don't we hear from Dixie Romantic?
00:16:49.000 That ought to be a good one, huh?
00:16:51.000 Let's see.
00:16:53.000 Hey, what's going on, Dixie Romantic?
00:16:56.000 Welcome to the show.
00:16:58.000 Oh, dang.
00:16:59.000 First of the night.
00:17:00.000 Yeah.
00:17:00.000 That's cool.
00:17:01.000 So, what's going on?
00:17:03.000 Ah, not much.
00:17:04.000 Just chilling, ready for a good Cullen show, listening to all the spurgs going off.
00:17:12.000 Yes, yes.
00:17:14.000 We are all excited for that on Friday.
00:17:17.000 It's simultaneously funny, but at the same time, it's so cringy.
00:17:21.000 I just can't stand it.
00:17:23.000 Yeah, that's what a lot of people say about the show on the one hand, it is funny to watch me sort of endure with all these different people, but at the same time, it is.
00:17:33.000 It's not exactly a fun viewing experience, but, you know, I'm hoping for the best.
00:17:39.000 I'm always an optimist.
00:17:40.000 I'm the eternal white pillar, so I think it'll be all right tonight.
00:17:43.000 But, you got anything on your mind in specific, or are you just dabbing on the autists here?
00:17:50.000 Ah, nothing really.
00:17:53.000 You read a lot of fiction, or are you mostly a nonfiction kind of guy?
00:17:56.000 I'm mostly a nonfiction kind of a guy.
00:18:00.000 Alright.
00:18:02.000 PewDiePie, you know, based in Red Pill, he mentioned in one of his last book reviews that he thinks people, like, nonfiction is obviously a popular genre for the male audience, but he thinks that a lot of people could probably benefit from good fiction.
00:18:19.000 Good men could benefit from good fiction, but.
00:18:23.000 So, it's just been something maybe you were a suggestion.
00:18:27.000 I don't really have any books in mind specifically, but.
00:18:30.000 Yeah.
00:18:32.000 I agree.
00:18:34.000 Yeah.
00:18:34.000 So, I don't know.
00:18:36.000 How do you stay so optimistic?
00:18:38.000 I've been feeling kind of black pilled lately, and I'm doing my best to fight it off, but it's a tough beast.
00:18:45.000 Well, interesting transition there.
00:18:48.000 But yeah, on being optimistic, I'm not really optimistic, honestly.
00:18:53.000 And I've.
00:18:54.000 I feel like I get sort of this, I get mischaracterized a little bit by the opposition, obviously, by the so called black pillars, the Wignats.
00:19:05.000 They mischaracterize my position as I believe that Donald Trump and the Republican Party are going to save the day and they're going to fix everything.
00:19:13.000 You know, that was never my position.
00:19:16.000 Even before the election, way before the election, before I even started supporting Donald Trump, I said that whoever gets in isn't even going to come close to fixing things.
00:19:27.000 That's actually how I. Got on board with Donald Trump.
00:19:30.000 If you go back to the stuff I was doing in high school on YouTube, what I said was that the reason I switched over to supporting Trump is because I believe that he would act basically as a chaos agent and mix everything up so much, delegitimize the media, so that then a real person, a real reactionary, could really come in and do what needed to be done.
00:19:53.000 And you could go back to Nicholas Jaffe went to show, I think, episode six or seven.
00:19:57.000 This is from 2016, like March, I think.
00:20:02.000 And I was saying this stuff.
00:20:03.000 So I'm not optimistic, but my attitude has always been that no matter what happens, we're going to play the game.
00:20:11.000 You know, there are people who say that, well, if we just pass this point, or, you know, once whites become a minority, or once Texas goes blue, or whatever, well, at that point, then it's game over.
00:20:22.000 We lose.
00:20:24.000 And I've never really been about that.
00:20:25.000 You know, I've always believed in our people, I've believed in the human spirit.
00:20:30.000 And look, you also just have to think of things in terms of numbers.
00:20:35.000 If by 2050 we're on track to bring in so many immigrants and demographic change already has this momentum, let's say we're between 40 and 50% of the population as white people.
00:20:48.000 This is still a salvageable situation.
00:20:51.000 For people that say that, oh, we really got to throw in the towel now because it's all over, you have to think that if by 2050, halfway through the end of this century, we're still 40 to 50% of the population, I think we can work with that.
00:21:08.000 Obviously, that's not ideal.
00:21:08.000 Right?
00:21:10.000 Obviously, we believe that the more mixed, the more diverse, and heterogeneous a society is, the less functional it is, and the more difficult it will be to maintain the quality of life that we have.
00:21:23.000 But you still have a lot to work with there.
00:21:25.000 There are still options on the table.
00:21:27.000 And so, my approach has always been and this is really a totally conservative ideology, which is just always be thinking in terms of the long term.
00:21:37.000 If you make small investments now, it pays off big in the long term.
00:21:42.000 You know, and this applies to everything, but it also applies to politics.
00:21:46.000 Instead of getting so called black pilled and, oh, I'm going to go, you know, whatever, it's very simple.
00:21:53.000 Just start chipping away at it now, whether that be saving money, starting a family, getting involved, working in politics.
00:22:00.000 And then if everybody does that, by the time 2050 rolls around, we've got so much more to work with in terms of the infrastructure, the networking.
00:22:10.000 So I'm not optimistic, but I just believe that.
00:22:13.000 If people do the right thing, if people are smart now, well, later on we'll have a better chance at fixing things than we do now.
00:22:21.000 So that's sort of my outlook.
00:22:24.000 All right.
00:22:26.000 You mentioned diversity causing an unstable society, and it occurred to me that a lot of kind of the start of this whole breakdown of America was the breakdown of an ideological, maybe not ideological, but a breakdown of a unified mindset.
00:22:43.000 For America, where it started to break down ideologically, even though we had majority whites in power for the longest time, people started breaking off and doing their own way of thinking about things, and that kind of divided the population to begin with.
00:22:58.000 And now we've got a broken up race in addition to a broken up country.
00:23:05.000 I think it is fair to say, though, that white identity really has never existed.
00:23:12.000 I don't mean to say that to delegitimize the.
00:23:15.000 You know, the concept of whiteness or European heritage or anything like that.
00:23:19.000 But, you know, and this is the last thing I'll say, we'll have to move on to another caller.
00:23:22.000 But with, and this is something I was thinking about actually today, we're going to have to sort of facilitate white identity politics because naturally we will be defined against so called people of color, you know, blacks, Hispanics, Asians.
00:23:40.000 But this project is something that's totally new.
00:23:42.000 You know, I think a lot of people falsely believe that we're sort of reconstituting.
00:23:48.000 Racial identity.
00:23:49.000 And in a sense, in America, we've had white identity.
00:23:53.000 We've had like WASP identity.
00:23:54.000 We've had Anglo Saxon identity.
00:23:57.000 But there has never really been this European consciousness.
00:24:01.000 You could go back to Bismarck, who said, I think, I forget what year it was, but he said something to the effect that Europe is a geographical phenomenon.
00:24:12.000 Nothing outside of a map, basically.
00:24:14.000 And so you look at European history, you look at the history of The different ethnicities in America.
00:24:21.000 Now, I'm not saying that whiteness doesn't exist, but the political concept of white identity, the white nation, you know, that's something that is totally new.
00:24:29.000 And I think that's sort of a new frontier here.
00:24:31.000 So, yeah, even in Germany, it wasn't like white people, it was the Aryans and the Germans.
00:24:37.000 It was a German identity.
00:24:38.000 Even in places like Japan, where it's all like Japanese people, extremely xenophobic and unified, they still have the different tribal divisions that are, to a degree, still existed.
00:24:49.000 But anyway, yeah, exactly.
00:24:52.000 I'll let you go.
00:24:53.000 Read Chesterton, that's addressed to the listeners.
00:24:55.000 Read Chesterton, fantastic author.
00:24:57.000 Wrote a lot of good things, dabbed on a lot of people.
00:25:00.000 But you have a good rest of your evening, man.
00:25:03.000 Thanks, you as well.
00:25:03.000 Good advice.
00:25:04.000 Thanks for the call.
00:25:06.000 No problem.
00:25:06.000 All right, take it easy.
00:25:08.000 Okay, great call.
00:25:09.000 I was actually surprised.
00:25:11.000 I brought somebody in with Dixie in the name, and I thought it was going to be somebody who was upset about what I've had to say about the Confederacy lately, but that was a pretty pleasant call.
00:25:24.000 Let me just put that on the.
00:25:26.000 Thing there.
00:25:27.000 And let's see, we'll bring in another caller here.
00:25:30.000 How about we hear from Sam Hyde Groyper?
00:25:35.000 What's going on, Sam Hyde Groyper?
00:25:37.000 Hey, what's up?
00:25:39.000 I have two options, I guess, and I guess we'll decide which one you want to take.
00:25:44.000 Okay.
00:25:45.000 So it sounds like you kind of want some contention on the whole Confederate thing.
00:25:51.000 I don't know.
00:25:52.000 I didn't want any.
00:25:52.000 I just thought that is what was going to happen.
00:25:56.000 Okay, well, then we'll skip that one.
00:25:58.000 Although I do disagree with you on that a little bit.
00:26:00.000 But I wanted to ask you how you got way back in the Nickler days connected with good old Tim Heidecker and Vic Berger.
00:26:00.000 Yeah.
00:26:10.000 Do you even know how he started watching your content?
00:26:14.000 Tim Heidecker and Vic Berger, I don't think they watch my content.
00:26:18.000 Well, he made that joke about you, like the fake booger eating thing.
00:26:23.000 Well, yeah, I don't think he watches my show.
00:26:23.000 Oh, yeah.
00:26:25.000 I just think the left wing ecosystem probably found out because of Jared Holt, I imagine, or somebody like that.
00:26:33.000 They both do follow Jared Holt, so I guess that might explain it.
00:26:37.000 Yeah.
00:26:38.000 Yeah, those people are.
00:26:40.000 Yeah, go ahead.
00:26:41.000 Were you going to.
00:26:42.000 Was that true about you going to show or was that a toe joke?
00:26:45.000 Because at first it sounded kind of real.
00:26:47.000 That I was going to have Vic Burger on my show?
00:26:51.000 Yeah, weren't you going to have a.
00:26:52.000 I mean, I know the fake one with the little block of cheese, but I thought you were legitimately going to have Mr. Burger on the show at one point.
00:27:00.000 No, that was the joke.
00:27:01.000 That was the joke, because I said I was going to have him on the show, and then I had a little block.
00:27:07.000 Yeah, that was all part of the joke, big guy.
00:27:14.000 Yeah, he's not coming on the show.
00:27:16.000 You should get him on.
00:27:17.000 I think that would be a fun one.
00:27:18.000 Yeah, I think that would be really productive.
00:27:21.000 After losing Super Deluxe, he's really kind of gone downhill and is just screaming at Tucker Carlson and people like that.
00:27:28.000 Yeah, I really want Jared Holt on the show because, you know, honestly, Vic Berger, he's just, I don't, look, I don't like ugly people.
00:27:36.000 I don't want to have an ugly person on my show.
00:27:38.000 But Jared Holt, you know, Jared Holt, I think, should come on the show because I really, we really just want to touch base with him.
00:27:47.000 We want to see how he's doing, we want to see what he's up to.
00:27:50.000 You know, he is the star guest.
00:27:52.000 He remains to be, I think, number three or four on the list.
00:27:55.000 I would probably say it would go like Donald Trump, maybe Tucker.
00:28:00.000 And I think probably in the top 10, we'd like to get the old J Man, J Town, on the show himself.
00:28:07.000 But these left wing people, they continue to evade.
00:28:10.000 Even Hassan Piker, you know, is one who I don't really care to have him on the show.
00:28:14.000 But, you know, I remember a lot of people saying, oh, Hassan should come on and debate Nick.
00:28:18.000 And then I put out a couple of feelers, and it was the usual, oh, they're so desperate to have me on.
00:28:24.000 It's like you can't invite left wing people on the show without them getting all bitchy.
00:28:28.000 And they're like, oh, look, they're like begging me to debate.
00:28:31.000 They're like beating me to come on.
00:28:33.000 It's like, no, we just want you to come on the show so we could talk.
00:28:36.000 You know, it's good content.
00:28:38.000 Or don't, you know, but I don't know why it has to be that way.
00:28:42.000 So we'd like to get it.
00:28:44.000 Yeah.
00:28:45.000 I do remember when Duplass, that film director guy, went on Steven Crowder's show and it pretty much ruined his career.
00:28:53.000 So I guess that's why they don't do it.
00:28:55.000 Yeah.
00:28:57.000 That's all I have for you.
00:29:00.000 All right.
00:29:00.000 Well, thanks for the comment, man.
00:29:02.000 Much appreciated.
00:29:03.000 All righty.
00:29:04.000 Thank you.
00:29:05.000 All right.
00:29:05.000 Take it easy.
00:29:08.000 I didn't catch the old Vic Burger joke.
00:29:12.000 If you don't remember that, I said Vic Burger made fun of me, I think, one time on Twitter or something.
00:29:18.000 And so I said on my show, I'm going to have Vic Burger.
00:29:21.000 He's going to be a guest on the show this week.
00:29:25.000 Then I got a block of cheese.
00:29:27.000 And I think I put on like.
00:29:29.000 I taped a bunch of yarn on for hair, and I used a twist tie to make glasses.
00:29:35.000 And I said, Oh, this is Vic Berger.
00:29:37.000 And, you know, he just looks like a goofball here.
00:29:42.000 But I guess he thought I was really bringing him on, even after that joke was made.
00:29:48.000 Interesting.
00:29:48.000 But let's see, we're going to bring on somebody else here.
00:29:50.000 Why don't we hear from.
00:29:54.000 We want to hear from people we haven't heard from.
00:29:56.000 How about $25.99?
00:29:58.000 I don't think we've ever heard from this person.
00:30:01.000 Hey, what's going on?
00:30:03.000 Oh, shoot.
00:30:04.000 Wow, I did not actually expect to get on.
00:30:07.000 Okay.
00:30:10.000 Yeah.
00:30:10.000 All right, well, I just joined the discord.
00:30:14.000 I've only watched the show sometimes when I'm doing my homework.
00:30:17.000 Okay, yeah, all right.
00:30:19.000 What are you doing homework for?
00:30:21.000 You in college or high school or middle school?
00:30:23.000 You're in elementary school?
00:30:25.000 No, no, I'm just in high school.
00:30:28.000 Okay, so you're a zoomer, yeah.
00:30:33.000 And I guess what I was hoping to talk about on this show was just in general, what's your entire opinion about the school system and stuff, you know?
00:30:42.000 I don't think I've ever really heard your ideas and stuff about that, if you have any.
00:30:47.000 The school system.
00:30:49.000 Yeah, you know, this is a subject which I'm not an expert in, obviously.
00:30:53.000 You know, healthcare, education, I look at those two, and those are difficult for me because they're very highly complex systems.
00:31:00.000 And I don't think if you don't have expertise, it's sort of hard to navigate.
00:31:04.000 But my view on education has always been that you need more localization in the sense that I recognize it's becoming increasingly difficult because you have communities that are.
00:31:16.000 More diverse, more uninvolved.
00:31:19.000 You tend to see this in a lot of non white communities or otherwise ethnically or racially diverse communities, a lot less involvement from the community.
00:31:27.000 So I think that maybe that should be maintained maybe in white areas and rural areas.
00:31:32.000 That could be a huge boon.
00:31:33.000 You know, this is something that was talked about, I think, for many years in conservative circles this sort of devolution back to the states, back to localities, getting back control of the curriculum in schools, getting back in control of the schools themselves in some cases.
00:31:49.000 But On another level, I do think that, you know, to an extent we have to accept the degree of federalization, that central government's going to handle this.
00:31:59.000 It's going to be big bureaucracy.
00:32:02.000 That's what happens in a country where you don't have people that are involved in taking responsibility.
00:32:07.000 So if that's the case, then I would say that we have to restructure education based on the job market.
00:32:13.000 You know, I think people, you know, don't really realize the fact that, or maybe people realize it, but the system is not really built so that people are.
00:32:23.000 Being prepared and trained to be successful in the job market that exists now.
00:32:28.000 You know, because you look at the education systems that do work in Northern Europe, for example, and they're based upon, you know, are you going to be in higher education or are you going to be in a trade?
00:32:39.000 Are you going to be in a lower skilled profession?
00:32:42.000 And everything's built based on that.
00:32:44.000 So I think we've got to restructure maybe high school and college based on that.
00:32:49.000 I would certainly say that we would have to make big reforms to school.
00:32:53.000 I don't know if that's loan forgiveness totally, but there has to be something in the law that says that, you know, that they can't be charging these ludicrous amounts for tuition.
00:33:04.000 Community college is becoming basically necessary.
00:33:07.000 So I think having that be universal to some extent might be appropriate.
00:33:13.000 But I think the whole thing has to be basically switched around and restructured because it's just a mess.
00:33:20.000 You know, we have people that they're not even qualified for most jobs until they're 22 and they're $30,000 in debt.
00:33:26.000 So, That's got to change.
00:33:28.000 Yeah, I keep on looking at the generations after me and stuff, people that are older than me, and I keep on getting worried about what on earth am I going to do after high school?
00:33:39.000 I keep on getting worried about the future and such because what am I supposed to do right now?
00:33:46.000 I'm just having to wait through the system and then wait until I get disappointed.
00:33:52.000 Yeah, and that's the problem, I think.
00:33:55.000 In high school, this is one of the biggest problems I observed, is that nobody is planning for.
00:34:01.000 Their career.
00:34:02.000 That's a problem.
00:34:03.000 You know, you look at the numbers and it's scandalous the amount of people with degrees who end up unemployed or underemployed based on their qualifications.
00:34:12.000 And that just goes to show how messed up the whole situation is.
00:34:16.000 So it's got to be changed.
00:34:18.000 But, you know, it's funny, all the people who talk about universal education, they've got it all wrong.
00:34:24.000 Because the minute that you make college free, the minute you make four year college free and everybody goes there, it becomes as worthless as a high school diploma.
00:34:32.000 And so.
00:34:33.000 I think that that is probably not the solution.
00:34:36.000 You know, we want to be churning people out who can be employable when they're 18, you know, not when they're 22, 24, whatever.
00:34:43.000 So it's.
00:34:44.000 I think.
00:34:45.000 Yeah, go ahead.
00:34:47.000 So from what I keep on seeing, I love the issue, at least with the school that I'm in, like they keep on refocusing it, and that they do try and provide classes for actual jobs and stuff.
00:34:58.000 Like, you know, they're actually trying to focus on teaching coding, they're actually trying to focus on teaching engineering things that.
00:35:05.000 Earn a lot of money, you know, medical science, cybersecurity, like a bunch of different fields and stuff.
00:35:11.000 They keep on trying to focus on them.
00:35:13.000 It's just the students don't care.
00:35:15.000 No one cares, all right?
00:35:16.000 Everyone's just so motivated.
00:35:17.000 They keep on seeing these generations older than us being just so, I guess, bummed out.
00:35:23.000 You know, it's like everyone who seems smarter than us seems to be just nihilistic, completely black pilled.
00:35:29.000 So what's the point in us caring?
00:35:31.000 Yeah.
00:35:32.000 Yeah, that's what's going to have to happen.
00:35:34.000 Honestly, people think there isn't a big correction coming up.
00:35:39.000 They're so wrong.
00:35:40.000 Because, I mean, you're right, that's at the heart of the matter.
00:35:43.000 You could change the system all you want.
00:35:45.000 The problem at the end of the day is the people who, generally speaking, are not very motivated, are not really looking to add value to the economy, and it's going to collapse.
00:35:58.000 You know, I think you look at that, what's that old meme, you know, weak people create bad times?
00:36:05.000 We're right on the cusp of that happening the bad people causing the bad times.
00:36:11.000 So, I think as much as we could focus on institutions and things like that, I mean, I think you're hitting the nail on the head there, the real problem, which is the lethargy of the population.
00:36:21.000 And it's hard to imagine what policy could fix that.
00:36:25.000 But we're going to have to move on.
00:36:27.000 Thanks for the call, though.
00:36:28.000 Great question.
00:36:29.000 All right.
00:36:29.000 Thank you very much.
00:36:30.000 All right.
00:36:31.000 Thank you.
00:36:31.000 Glad to be on the show.
00:36:32.000 Yeah, man.
00:36:32.000 Bye bye.
00:36:34.000 Great call from a young Zoomer, from a young high schooler.
00:36:39.000 Concerned about the issues of the day.
00:36:41.000 That's what we'd like to see.
00:36:44.000 Let's see, we'll bring in somebody else here.
00:36:45.000 Why don't we hear from Reap It Cheap?
00:36:51.000 I think I'm reading that right.
00:36:53.000 All right, we'll bring him in and we'll see.
00:36:56.000 Hey, what's going on?
00:37:00.000 You there?
00:37:04.000 Okay, so Reap It Cheap, I don't know, they got some technical difficulties there.
00:37:10.000 Never coming back on the show again.
00:37:12.000 You're banned.
00:37:14.000 No, I'm joking.
00:37:15.000 But in the future, please try to have your technology sorted out before I drag you in.
00:37:20.000 It's just considerate.
00:37:23.000 How about we hear from Bloomer Charles V?
00:37:26.000 That ought to be a good one.
00:37:29.000 Hey, what's going on, Bloomer?
00:37:32.000 Hello.
00:37:33.000 Hey.
00:37:35.000 Good to see you.
00:37:36.000 Thanks for having me on.
00:37:40.000 Yeah, this is great.
00:37:45.000 I'm glad everything's been going well.
00:37:50.000 I've been paying attention to the show.
00:37:51.000 Obviously, everything's not going well.
00:37:53.000 It's awful, but I just, you know, I hope.
00:38:00.000 You've been doing all right.
00:38:01.000 I've been doing great.
00:38:02.000 Life's been going well.
00:38:04.000 My main question is for you, Nick.
00:38:06.000 Do you pray before you ever start the show, or do you do anything like that, any sort of spiritual actions beforehand?
00:38:14.000 Not before the show, no.
00:38:17.000 Usually before the show, it's a bit of a scramble.
00:38:22.000 When you're five to ten minutes late every day, you can imagine it's not really understood.
00:38:27.000 Yeah, you can just imagine.
00:38:30.000 That it comes, let's just say it comes together pretty quickly when it comes together at 705, 707, you know, for being generous there.
00:38:42.000 So, no, you know, here's the thing about praying I do pray, but I have to be honest, I wasn't raised, like, my family has always been religious, but we haven't, my family was never really in the practice of being totally on top of the praying or, you know, going through the motions on a lot of those things.
00:39:04.000 So, although there was always a strong belief in God, it just really wasn't a habit when I was growing up.
00:39:09.000 So, it's a little bit difficult now that I'm a little bit more religious.
00:39:13.000 So, no, I don't really do a whole lot of the praying before the show.
00:39:17.000 It's really just mostly the routine.
00:39:18.000 You jump on, you say the things.
00:39:21.000 Gotcha.
00:39:23.000 So, yeah, is that all?
00:39:23.000 Is that the only question there?
00:39:27.000 My other question is in relation to, you were just talking about college and stuff like that.
00:39:33.000 So, I've heard, you know, trade school has been emphasized over and over again.
00:39:36.000 Is that a meme or is that like, Actually, something that people really should be going into?
00:39:42.000 Trade school is not a meme.
00:39:44.000 Trade school is so not a meme.
00:39:45.000 You look at electricians, plumbers, you know, all kinds of trade work.
00:39:53.000 Excuse me, you can make really good money off of that.
00:39:55.000 And, you know, the thing about work in the trades, and I'm not an expert, so people are always asking me about this stuff, and then some people are, oh, that's not true or whatever.
00:40:05.000 As far as I know, it's very good work.
00:40:08.000 And, um, The benefit of that kind of work is that there's a little bit more certainty because you go to college, you get a liberal arts degree.
00:40:19.000 Let's say you come out of school and you get the average debt, which is $37,000.
00:40:24.000 What happens if you don't get a job right away?
00:40:26.000 And what happens if you don't get a start until you're 25 or 26 or something?
00:40:31.000 So, the reason why the trades are so good is because there's obviously a very quick and certain path to go from going in school, getting your certification, whatever it is.
00:40:44.000 To getting work and starting to make a living.
00:40:47.000 And then who knows?
00:40:48.000 Maybe then you get an advanced degree down the road, but at least at that point, you've got a little bit of a plan, you've got a way to make money, and you get a jump start in a way that a lot of other people don't.
00:40:59.000 Because you'll find that there's a very high percentage of graduates, college graduates, who it'll take them more than four years to get a four year degree.
00:41:08.000 And like I said, the average debt is $37,000.
00:41:11.000 So you just look at the numbers in terms of probability.
00:41:14.000 I could never live like that.
00:41:15.000 You know, graduating at what, 23, 24 years old, and you've got a negative net worth, and you don't know if you're going to have a job, and then you do, and what's the starting salary?
00:41:25.000 And if you want to get your life started when you're 30, maybe that's a good path.
00:41:29.000 But I think the trades are a very viable course for a lot of young people.
00:41:35.000 So I think that's a good path for people.
00:41:39.000 Now, you know, some people are really smart, and if you're really smart, it's still a good option, still probably a better option to go to school and get a four year degree.
00:41:48.000 But for everybody else, you know, unless you really have an aptitude for something, you have a plan, you know, you're going to work hard to get it, the trades are a great path also.
00:41:56.000 So definitely not a meme.
00:41:59.000 All right, cool.
00:42:00.000 Yeah, that's basically all I had to ask.
00:42:02.000 I'm sorry I was so nervous at the beginning.
00:42:04.000 That's all right.
00:42:05.000 No problem at all.
00:42:07.000 Well, I'll see you then, Nick.
00:42:07.000 All right.
00:42:09.000 Well, thanks for the call.
00:42:09.000 All right.
00:42:10.000 Take it easy.
00:42:12.000 Bloomer Charles V. That was a good call.
00:42:12.000 All right.
00:42:15.000 Good question and a good call.
00:42:17.000 He was a little bit nervous at the beginning, but that's all right.
00:42:20.000 It's.
00:42:21.000 I understand.
00:42:22.000 I understand.
00:42:23.000 Don't, you know, no need to get all flustered.
00:42:27.000 It's just your friend, Nick.
00:42:29.000 Just your pal.
00:42:31.000 We'll bring in, how about we hear from Liquid Oxygen?
00:42:31.000 Let's see.
00:42:36.000 I don't think we've heard from this guy before.
00:42:38.000 Let's bring him in.
00:42:40.000 What's going on, Liquid Oxygen?
00:42:42.000 Mr. Fuentes, it's been a while.
00:42:44.000 How are you?
00:42:45.000 Great.
00:42:46.000 How are you?
00:42:46.000 Oh, I'm quite well.
00:42:49.000 I'm happy to be here.
00:42:50.000 I haven't been in the Discord for a long time, and I'm happy to be back.
00:42:53.000 Yeah.
00:42:54.000 When do we have you initially?
00:42:57.000 This was back, I think, in October.
00:42:59.000 Don't quote me on that.
00:43:00.000 Because I've heard that the call in shows have been nightmarish.
00:43:00.000 Okay.
00:43:03.000 So I hope you'll understand if I'm not going to go and watch through all of them to find the one that I'm in.
00:43:08.000 Yeah, I won't hold you to that.
00:43:10.000 But anyway, what's on your mind tonight?
00:43:13.000 Well, I was hoping to hit you maybe with some real questions about politics and things like that.
00:43:19.000 Sure.
00:43:20.000 And, well, there were a number of topics that I wanted to talk about.
00:43:25.000 Such as maybe Tucker's interview that wasn't aired with that Dutch guy.
00:43:30.000 But I thought maybe more pertinent to the real world and actual policy and the future of the nation demographically is I'm not sure if Trump has ever done this before.
00:43:43.000 But, and see, I wasn't sure if I was going to bring this up because on one hand, it's so obvious to me anyway that he would do this.
00:43:50.000 And on the other hand, maybe it's so obvious that it's stupid.
00:43:53.000 But what I would do if I were Trump is I would probably sit down with Democratic leadership, perhaps.
00:43:59.000 You know, Pelosi and Schumer in the White House and call a press conference and just ask them directly, What do you want in exchange for the wall?
00:44:08.000 Because I think that this would kind of force them, put them on the spot and force them to say something.
00:44:13.000 You either force them to be open borders or you force them to make a ridiculous deal or propose a ridiculous deal.
00:44:21.000 And I think that could really play into the president's hands politically.
00:44:24.000 But I wanted to get your take on making such a brazen move like that.
00:44:28.000 I don't think that would work.
00:44:29.000 And the reason being is because the official position of Nancy.
00:44:32.000 Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer is that they don't want to allocate money for a single mile of wall.
00:44:38.000 Nancy Pelosi says she doesn't want $1 for a wall.
00:44:41.000 And ultimately, that's what they got because if you look at the money that was allocated, even in the ultimate funding bill, the compromise bill, it gave $1.3 billion for bollard fencing.
00:44:54.000 And only by a very generous and wide definition of what a wall is could you call that kind of a structure a wall.
00:45:03.000 So, I think that a press conference like that ultimately would backfire because, you know, like I said, the official position is no wall.
00:45:10.000 Now, if he were to say physical barrier, I think they would be able to say, yes, we'll provide physical barrier.
00:45:16.000 But, you know, again, the Democrat rhetoric on this and the framing on this has been that, you know, anything more than a fencing, anything more than, you know, the strategic locations with 18 foot tall, 18 foot tall, see through bollard fencing is a so called vanity project.
00:45:34.000 It's unnecessary.
00:45:35.000 You know, that's what Beto and others have been saying.
00:45:38.000 And he did have an event like that.
00:45:40.000 You know, like you described back in December before the shutdown, he had Pelosi and Schumer in a meeting, and it obviously didn't go very well.
00:45:48.000 And actually, the president said, I'll actually take responsibility for the shutdown.
00:45:53.000 I'll shut down the government over a wall.
00:45:55.000 And I think within like 24 hours, he was backtracking and saying, Oh, this is a Pelosi shutdown.
00:46:01.000 So I don't know if that would work.
00:46:03.000 Well, see, I think it wouldn't be impossible for the president to sort of.
00:46:03.000 I don't.
00:46:11.000 Verbally wrestle them into having a stated position of open borders because the Democrats, they're playing this sort of game where they want to deny, on one hand, that they're pro open borders, and on the other hand, they're promoting all these policies.
00:46:29.000 So it's sort of a level of cognitive dissonance that I guess the public is able to tolerate and handle.
00:46:36.000 But I feel like if he got them in a live sort of setting where he was able to pin them down rhetorically, And was able to basically force them to admit to being pro open boards.
00:46:47.000 I feel like that can be done.
00:46:49.000 I feel like a skilled rhetorician, if that's a word, would be able to manipulate them into making that mission.
00:46:55.000 And I feel like there's definitely political capital in that.
00:46:58.000 Now, see, I trust your take on this because you're the political guy, right?
00:47:01.000 You're the commentator, you're the pundit.
00:47:04.000 I'm the, as I see some commenters have guessed, I'm the leak, not even from the country, not even American, so you know better than I.
00:47:10.000 But yeah, I don't know.
00:47:14.000 I think it would be possible for the president to do something like that.
00:47:19.000 Maybe a live conference wouldn't be a place to do it.
00:47:21.000 Maybe he should have used the bully pulpit, as you've said before, to much better effect than he actually did.
00:47:29.000 But he's been saying there for open borders.
00:47:32.000 He said that at the rally, he said that at the televised address.
00:47:36.000 The problem is, he's lost the battle on the word game, on the rhetoric for the wall, because you have the House majority whip.
00:47:48.000 He said that the Democrats are in favor of physical barriers.
00:47:52.000 Even Beto O'Rourke, who's a total, I mean, he's like an unrepentant open border shill.
00:47:57.000 He said that walls take lives and he says we should defund ICE.
00:48:02.000 And even he was forced to say, well, we're in favor of physical barriers.
00:48:06.000 And that's ultimately where the distinction lies.
00:48:08.000 Because you have, if you look at any of the numbers, any of the polling on this, the majority of people say the border's a crisis and illegal immigrants are a problem and et cetera, et cetera.
00:48:18.000 But It's only 40% that say that we need a wall.
00:48:21.000 And I think that's really where we've sort of dropped it because Schumer and Pelosi are in favor of physical, so called physical barriers.
00:48:30.000 And I think that's where it's very difficult to catch them on this because what we want is a 30 foot tall concrete structure.
00:48:38.000 So, you know, a lot of those little tricks, technicalities, that's what makes it very difficult for him to nail them down.
00:48:44.000 But he's been hitting them on open borders all the time.
00:48:47.000 The problem is that when they control the media so thoroughly, It's very tough for us to get a grip on the narrative.
00:48:56.000 See, that's why I wanted to do it live.
00:48:58.000 Yeah.
00:49:00.000 We tried that once before.
00:49:01.000 I mean, he did that in the Oval Office.
00:49:03.000 And even in that kind of a scenario, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer have been doing this a lot longer than the president.
00:49:09.000 As smart as he is, I have a lot of faith in his ability to get a politician and nail them down.
00:49:14.000 I know a lot of people fantasize about, well, what if we could just get them to say what they really mean?
00:49:20.000 I mean, that's politics.
00:49:22.000 It doesn't happen.
00:49:24.000 It looks like I made an accidental low IQ take.
00:49:29.000 Well, see, with Trump, when he was campaigning, and I know it's kind of weird for a Canadian to be saying this, but I think a lot of Canadians project themselves into an American mindset.
00:49:40.000 People care more about American politics.
00:49:42.000 Here than Canadian politics, because we're basically a colony of the United States, more or less.
00:49:47.000 But that's totally tangential to what I kind of wanted to say.
00:49:51.000 I just wanted to frame as why I care so much.
00:49:53.000 But when Trump was campaigning, I was kind of imagining him with any sort of hiccup politically along the road to his agenda.
00:50:04.000 I thought he was going to excoriate and castigate and lambaste his political opposition, just totally be a.
00:50:14.000 A bull in the china shop, get in there and get on TV, call as many press conferences as he needed to, and call people out by a name and say, look, Senator X from state Y is doing this, this, and this, and this is terrible for the country.
00:50:28.000 This is why.
00:50:29.000 Throw in some of the nicknames, do all these sorts of things.
00:50:32.000 I really thought he was going to rake them over the coals, especially now.
00:50:37.000 I can understand at the beginning when he wants to play ball, especially with the different factions that are present in Congress, as well as lobbying organizations and things like that.
00:50:46.000 But especially now, because as you've mentioned before, not getting the wall, like promising on the campaign trail, making it a central focus of the campaign, you know, we're going to build a wall.
00:50:55.000 Mexico's going to pay for it.
00:50:57.000 At the slightest scoffing, it just got 10 feet higher.
00:50:59.000 And before we know it, Trump was promising a wall in the stratosphere.
00:51:03.000 And then, you know, we don't even have anything.
00:51:05.000 And, you know, it's being whittled down to pathetic little bollard fencing.
00:51:10.000 I think especially now, Trump should be doing that.
00:51:13.000 I think he has nothing to lose.
00:51:15.000 If he just kind of sits on his hands and And acts as he's acting and let Kushner ride roughshod over him, I think he's going to lose in 2020.
00:51:27.000 I think what he should do is he should bring these people really to heel and just make them pay because, at worst, he's going to get voted out of office for this bombastic attitude.
00:51:37.000 And at best, it's going to pay off.
00:51:39.000 And if he doesn't do anything, I think he's on the track to being a one term president.
00:51:42.000 Yeah, yeah, I agree.
00:51:44.000 The problem is, and this last thing I'll say, this has been a good discussion, but we'll have to get somebody else in.
00:51:49.000 Sure, sure, yeah.
00:51:50.000 So, but just a Close it off.
00:51:52.000 I mean, I agree with everything you just said.
00:51:54.000 And that's, I think, been the biggest disappointment of the presidency so far, which is that to have a proper political revolution or realignment, you needed to be a perpetual campaign.
00:52:03.000 And that's what he never understood, I think.
00:52:05.000 Or if he did understand that, he lost steam.
00:52:09.000 He ran out of energy because, again, to have all those effects of the big win in 2016 be institutionalized and solidified, you would need to have him on the front lines.
00:52:22.000 Like you said, doing the press conferences, doing the rallies, hitting people every day.
00:52:27.000 But somewhere along the way, I think he just got lazy.
00:52:30.000 Honestly, he either got lazy or tired.
00:52:33.000 Or blackmail.
00:52:35.000 Or, yeah, that.
00:52:36.000 But we can't discount the fact that it is just a difficult job.
00:52:40.000 I think people just sort of underestimate that fact that this is a very brutal and taxing position for him to be in.
00:52:48.000 It would have been brutal for him if he were Barack Obama.
00:52:51.000 It was a hard job when it was Obama, and he wasn't battling the media and subversives in his administration.
00:52:58.000 You know, the unprecedented opposition he has only multiplies how stressful the job already is by 100.
00:53:06.000 So, I mean, he's only immortal.
00:53:07.000 Now, if he had a team, you know, if he had a really solid inner circle, I think that would have been possible.
00:53:15.000 But from the start, and that was the biggest mistake, he put Kushner in charge of the transition team after the election.
00:53:22.000 And so all the senior aides, all the people who should have been making his job easier, are now making his job harder.
00:53:29.000 And so I think that's why we didn't really get that.
00:53:31.000 But yeah, this would be the time because you're right.
00:53:33.000 He's got nothing left to lose.
00:53:38.000 And I said that during the shutdown, that if you don't produce the wall, if you don't produce on those big things, like it doesn't matter, right?
00:53:46.000 I mean, it's obviously much worse for him to not produce than for him to, you know, upset people, ruffle feathers by going scorched earth at this point.
00:53:53.000 But it's the person that I'm not the first to say that I'm going to leave right after this, I promise, because I've taken up so much of your time and it's beginning to be disrespectful to the other callers and to the audience.
00:54:01.000 But I just want to wrap this up by saying I think that, and I'm not the first person to say this, but I think that his love.
00:54:07.000 For his daughter, may, because people have been questioning, why isn't he stacking his cabinet with loyal ideologues, as alt hype said?
00:54:16.000 And I think it's all based in his love for his daughter, and that kind of has translated over into sort of an unnecessary trust, maybe based out of nepotism or a sort of feeling of family necessity to Kushner.
00:54:28.000 And I also do think there's something to be said about the New York real estate market, where he was in debt by something like crazy, like a billion dollars.
00:54:35.000 And that's a pretty cutthroat environment, too.
00:54:38.000 So for him to claw his way back from a negative.
00:54:41.000 Of a billion dollars into being a billionaire again.
00:54:43.000 I think so.
00:54:45.000 I trust you, but I'm a little bit skeptical to claim that the presidency is something that he wasn't totally prepared to handle.
00:54:51.000 But that being said, we could argue about this forever and discuss it.
00:54:53.000 But Nick, I want to thank you for having me on.
00:54:55.000 It was really nice of you, and I appreciate the call.
00:54:59.000 And I really enjoyed my time here talking to you and the Knicker Nation.
00:55:02.000 And I hope to be back on soon.
00:55:03.000 For sure, man.
00:55:04.000 Thank you for the call.
00:55:05.000 Take it easy.
00:55:06.000 No worries.
00:55:07.000 See you later, big guy.
00:55:08.000 Bye bye.
00:55:08.000 All right.
00:55:09.000 All right.
00:55:10.000 A very great call.
00:55:11.000 That guy was really on top of things, you know.
00:55:14.000 I guess there's sort of two polls, right?
00:55:18.000 You've got somebody who comes in, oh shit, I didn't expect to come in.
00:55:22.000 What's up?
00:55:23.000 And then you've got on the other end of the spectrum, you've got a very thorough and detailed call.
00:55:29.000 But I guess we like it better when it's on that side, right?
00:55:33.000 But let's take a look.
00:55:34.000 We'll bring in a few more callers here.
00:55:34.000 We'll see.
00:55:37.000 Looks like we've got time to handle a lot more.
00:55:39.000 So we'll bring in, we'll try and get as many as possible here.
00:55:43.000 So we're trying to keep them a little bit more brief, all right?
00:55:46.000 Well, let's see.
00:55:47.000 We'll bring in somebody else.
00:55:48.000 Why don't we hear from Looney T?
00:55:50.000 I don't think we've heard from him before.
00:55:53.000 Hey, what's going on?
00:55:55.000 Let's see.
00:55:56.000 We'll bring in somebody else.
00:55:56.000 Why don't we hear from Looney T?
00:56:06.000 It's you, dude.
00:56:07.000 It's you.
00:56:08.000 I can hear the show in the background.
00:56:09.000 Are you there?
00:56:13.000 All right.
00:56:14.000 You know what?
00:56:15.000 We're bringing somebody else in.
00:56:17.000 I can't deal with it today.
00:56:19.000 I just can't do it today.
00:56:20.000 All right.
00:56:20.000 We'll bring in somebody else.
00:56:23.000 Holy smokes.
00:56:24.000 We could watch it in the.
00:56:26.000 We could hear the show in the background, in the feedback, and have that whole loop completed and still be left hanging.
00:56:36.000 All right.
00:56:37.000 So we'll bring in.
00:56:39.000 How about we hear from.
00:56:41.000 What is this?
00:56:44.000 Mountain Man or something?
00:56:45.000 I don't know.
00:56:46.000 It's too many V's.
00:56:47.000 Hey, what's going on?
00:56:49.000 We'll bring in.
00:56:50.000 How about we get it from.
00:56:53.000 What's going on, man?
00:56:54.000 Nothing much, man.
00:56:56.000 What's up with you?
00:56:58.000 I'm doing pretty good, dude.
00:57:00.000 You ready for Sunday night?
00:57:02.000 What's Sunday night?
00:57:04.000 It's the Academy Awards.
00:57:06.000 Oh, yeah, sure.
00:57:08.000 Yeah, I wasn't planning on watching, but yeah, that'll be cool.
00:57:11.000 It should be interesting this year.
00:57:13.000 Mm hmm.
00:57:14.000 Hopefully, it won't be as bad as last year.
00:57:17.000 Actually, last year wasn't really that bad in regards to.
00:57:20.000 I mean, that's not saying much, but in regards to Academy Awards, it wasn't really that bad.
00:57:25.000 Yeah, I don't know.
00:57:26.000 I'm kind of desensitized to the whole awards show thing, right?
00:57:29.000 I mean, it's overly politicized.
00:57:32.000 They're giving them out to black people for being black.
00:57:35.000 I mean, you know, all the same.
00:57:37.000 I mean, last year, I mean, it basically was like the Mexican Academy Awards.
00:57:42.000 Yeah, because, like, you know, best anime film, Coco.
00:57:47.000 Best film was directed by some Mexican communist immigrant.
00:57:53.000 Yeah.
00:57:55.000 So, is that your question?
00:57:56.000 You're asking about the Academy Awards, or you got something else?
00:57:59.000 Well, yeah, I'm just kind of talking about it.
00:58:03.000 I bet this year probably they'll put in Black Panther, probably get the thing.
00:58:12.000 Yeah, they'll get the thing.
00:58:14.000 The thing about the Oscars, which I find so funny, is that it's.
00:58:17.000 It's actually very difficult to give out participation awards to black people because black people don't make good movies.
00:58:23.000 You know, that's the thing, it's true.
00:58:25.000 I mean, anybody who knows anything about movies knows this, but with the Grammys, it's so easy because black people do actually make very good music.
00:58:34.000 At least I enjoy it, you know, so to give, well, it was kind of BS this year when they gave Record of the Year to Childish Cambino because This is America was a trash song.
00:58:45.000 But there are other options.
00:58:46.000 I mean, there's other good albums.
00:58:47.000 But with movies, you just have, I mean, what are you going to give it to, right?
00:58:51.000 I mean, Like to me, the biggest red pill on race was when I was really into movies, when I was in like high school and a little bit in college.
00:58:59.000 I remember I was watching all the blaxploitation films, like one month, and I watched the movie Shaft.
00:59:05.000 And I realized that, with a couple of exceptions, Shaft was the pinnacle of black film.
00:59:11.000 They say it's one of the best of all time.
00:59:14.000 And Shaft was made in 1972.
00:59:17.000 And then I realized, well, you know what other movie was made in the same year?
00:59:22.000 The Godfather.
00:59:23.000 And so if you take a look and you watch the film Shaft, side by side with The Godfather, you know, an Italian filmmaker, an Italian story versus, you know, Shaft, it's sort of a red pill.
00:59:37.000 It says, well, you know, maybe some people are just better at things than other people.
00:59:41.000 Now, you know, do the right thing.
00:59:43.000 I think that's maybe the one exception, but otherwise.
00:59:47.000 Not so good.
00:59:48.000 Yeah.
00:59:49.000 Actually, speaking of which, you know, how last year Jordan Peele got that best screenplay for Get Out.
00:59:55.000 Oh, yeah.
00:59:56.000 That movie was, oh.
00:59:58.000 I didn't even see it.
00:59:59.000 It was a scary movie, so I don't watch scary movies.
01:00:02.000 Yeah, it was scary because of how stupid it was, really.
01:00:07.000 Oh, yeah.
01:00:08.000 Yeah, I don't know why.
01:00:10.000 They just can't.
01:00:13.000 I don't know why that is.
01:00:15.000 I could speculate, that would get me in trouble, but it just never comes together.
01:00:20.000 Like I said, the music is very good, and even the music videos.
01:00:23.000 But when it comes to the feature length films, Do the Right Thing is the only one that stands out to me.
01:00:28.000 Everything else is just subpar.
01:00:32.000 And, you know, the whole thing about the Oscars, I'm just so tired of these films.
01:00:37.000 There's all these, like, you know, wannabe political pundits and stuff trying to bring their own shit in.
01:00:41.000 And it's just like, I really wish the Zoomer crowd could get in some movies, you know, get their directorial debuts and stuff, you know?
01:00:50.000 Yeah, we have an America First filmmaker, a knicker.
01:00:55.000 Yeah, he's, what's his name?
01:00:58.000 I think he's the Smug Guy or something, but he made a feature film with BG Comby.
01:01:05.000 Really?
01:01:06.000 So we'll see.
01:01:07.000 Yeah, I think it's coming out later this year.
01:01:09.000 So we'll have to see if that's any good.
01:01:11.000 But yeah, I'd like to see some based and red pilled Zoomers.
01:01:14.000 We got to get the cast of maybe Stranger Things.
01:01:16.000 We got to get them red pilled.
01:01:18.000 Yeah, get them red pilled.
01:01:19.000 Yeah.
01:01:20.000 Well, my original plan was to get Jacob Sartorius red pilled.
01:01:20.000 Yeah.
01:01:24.000 That was my, you know, if we could get the red pilled.
01:01:26.000 And then eventually we get to Millie Bobby Brown.
01:01:29.000 That's right.
01:01:31.000 And you change the whole world.
01:01:32.000 But if we get, I mean, that's really the ticket, is if you get the TikTokers, the Viners, People don't really understand how it works.
01:01:39.000 They don't really get it.
01:01:41.000 But if you appeal to those people, you red pill those people.
01:01:44.000 This is just, you know, it's common sense.
01:01:46.000 Then they red pill the masses, sort of like PewDiePie.
01:01:49.000 You know, if we could red pill the Logan Paul and Jake Paul and all that, you know, then we can really make a difference.
01:01:56.000 But I don't see it happening too costly.
01:02:00.000 Yeah, but I really love to see more like wholesome things like these ones and stuff, you know?
01:02:06.000 That's what I'd like to see more in the Oscars.
01:02:08.000 Just, you know.
01:02:09.000 Yeah.
01:02:11.000 It's nuts.
01:02:12.000 Yeah, well, maybe one day, right?
01:02:14.000 Maybe one day we'll get some knicker.
01:02:17.000 Maybe Mel Gibson will take a turn with the resurrection movie and all the Jewish Hollywood people will scurry at the resurrected Christ.
01:02:30.000 That'll be the day, right?
01:02:31.000 Yeah.
01:02:32.000 I mean, that already kind of happened, but he got kind of just destroyed.
01:02:39.000 He got crucified in his own way.
01:02:41.000 I hope you get, you know.
01:02:43.000 Sort of thing.
01:02:44.000 A pack of, you know?
01:02:46.000 He said to his wife.
01:02:48.000 Yeah.
01:02:49.000 Yeah.
01:02:49.000 All right.
01:02:50.000 Well, good talk.
01:02:52.000 We're going to have to find another caller, all right?
01:02:55.000 I'll see you, Nick.
01:02:56.000 Take it easy.
01:02:56.000 All right.
01:02:57.000 Thanks for the call.
01:02:58.000 Bob.
01:02:59.000 See you.
01:03:00.000 Bye bye.
01:03:01.000 Okay.
01:03:02.000 So I'll bring in somebody else.
01:03:03.000 A good freewheeling discussion there about the Oscars.
01:03:09.000 Let's see.
01:03:10.000 We'll bring in, how about we hear from.
01:03:17.000 Let's hear from Happy Axon.
01:03:20.000 Have we gotten him in here before?
01:03:22.000 No, I don't think so.
01:03:23.000 Hey, what's going on?
01:03:27.000 You there?
01:03:31.000 Yo, yo.
01:03:32.000 Yo, what's up?
01:03:36.000 Hey, look, I just got to say how much I appreciate how much you're doing for the boys, the Zoomers, you know?
01:03:44.000 Yeah, man, thanks.
01:03:46.000 I know most of the Zoomers there.
01:03:49.000 This is their first major political cycle.
01:03:52.000 Things aren't going so great.
01:03:55.000 But don't worry, you've got many more years of being disappointed by things going wrong.
01:04:01.000 Yeah, very true.
01:04:03.000 You know what I mean?
01:04:03.000 But I just got to say, I just wanted to come on and say that the message you've got about improving yourself and getting in the system from inside and then changing it later on, that's the only way to go.
01:04:20.000 There's no way we're changing things right now.
01:04:22.000 Yep.
01:04:23.000 It's just not doable.
01:04:25.000 Yeah, this is exactly right.
01:04:26.000 Well, and it's just common sense.
01:04:28.000 You know, I mean, and if you knew the people who were in the system now, you would get it.
01:04:33.000 Because we have some really, really solid people on the inside that you've never heard of.
01:04:40.000 And they're more solid than the people that you have heard of, but they cannot do what must be done with the numbers that we have right now.
01:04:48.000 You know, maybe you got 25, 50, 100 of them.
01:04:52.000 You just don't have the numbers.
01:04:54.000 But if that changed, if there were 1,000 of them, and that's not a big number, you know, it's a country of 300 million people.
01:05:00.000 To get 1,000 people, I mean, think about that just in terms of ratio.
01:05:05.000 And that would change the dynamic.
01:05:08.000 So drastically, and you got these people saying, Oh no, don't do that.
01:05:13.000 Show up to my rally with a foam sword and a gladiator helmet.
01:05:17.000 I mean, it's maddening.
01:05:19.000 So, yeah, you're right.
01:05:20.000 It's the only way.
01:05:22.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:05:23.000 And I was just thinking that a lot of the guys, even including myself, we've only seen winning for the last two years, right?
01:05:31.000 Everything's been pretty positive.
01:05:33.000 We pulled off that great election out of nowhere, really, you know, 0.2%.
01:05:39.000 And.
01:05:41.000 And, um, sorry, dude, I'm playing a game.
01:05:44.000 But, uh, it's going to go wrong.
01:05:47.000 It's going to go wrong, um, eventually.
01:05:49.000 And it's going to go wrong a lot, right?
01:05:51.000 So we just got to improve.
01:05:54.000 Yeah, improve ourselves.
01:05:55.000 And then, you know, it only takes about five people, you know, to really fix it.
01:05:59.000 But that's all I got, Nick.
01:06:00.000 And, uh, I love to see the Zoomers getting around it, you know?
01:06:00.000 Thanks for what you're doing.
01:06:04.000 I was pretty black pilled on the Zoomers for a wee while, but it looks pretty great.
01:06:09.000 You know, the chat's strong.
01:06:10.000 I think it's looking up.
01:06:11.000 Yeah, I think we're turning things around.
01:06:13.000 One Fortnite.
01:06:16.000 Phil at a time, right?
01:06:17.000 But thanks for the call, my friend.
01:06:19.000 Take it easy, all right?
01:06:21.000 Peace.
01:06:21.000 Yeah, dude.
01:06:22.000 All right, bye bye.
01:06:23.000 Yeah, yeah, very good points, you know.
01:06:25.000 And he's right about us losing.
01:06:27.000 I mean, look, it is going to get tough.
01:06:28.000 We have been winning, basically.
01:06:32.000 I don't know if you could say the last year was winning, but you understand that we've got our guy in the White House.
01:06:37.000 That's a win, you know, and we won the election and we won the House and we won the Senate.
01:06:42.000 And I think people, maybe their expectations are too high because, you know, he's right.
01:06:49.000 We are going to have to learn how to deal with defeat because we're going to see a lot of it in a war, in a battle, and especially one where we don't have a good chance of winning.
01:06:59.000 You see a lot of casualties, you see a lot of setbacks.
01:07:03.000 But, you know, just like the American Revolution, just like any war, you know, you're going to have to just put your head down and keep working at it.
01:07:13.000 That's how it goes.
01:07:14.000 Look at Patrick Buchanan.
01:07:15.000 I talked about this on the Premium Show.
01:07:17.000 I think it was this weekend or maybe last week.
01:07:19.000 But I talked about Patrick Buchanan because if you think about it, Pat Buchanan ran on these ideas in 92 and 96.
01:07:27.000 It took 20 years for that to culminate in Donald Trump.
01:07:32.000 And that was a fluke, right?
01:07:33.000 To go from Buchanan to Trump.
01:07:35.000 If Trump didn't decide to run, it wouldn't have even happened.
01:07:38.000 So it took 20 years for this miracle to happen.
01:07:41.000 But otherwise, it was totally dormant until 2015.
01:07:45.000 So he ran in 92, and there was no chance he was going to win.
01:07:51.000 He ran again in 96.
01:07:53.000 Better chance.
01:07:54.000 Didn't even come close.
01:07:56.000 And it was radio silence for 19 years in terms of, you know, were we going to succeed?
01:08:03.000 Were we going to turn around the Republican Party?
01:08:05.000 Non intervention, immigration restriction took 19 years.
01:08:10.000 You know, imagine just sitting around and waiting for 19 years before Donald Trump gets up in Trump Tower and says, you know what?
01:08:17.000 We're going to build a wall and we're going to start tariffing China and we're going to pull out of Iraq and George Bush didn't keep us safe and all this other stuff.
01:08:26.000 It took 19 years, but eventually it came around.
01:08:30.000 Now, Let's say Donald Trump fails and he loses in 2020.
01:08:34.000 What happens if everybody invests and in 20 years, imagine the potential we'll have?
01:08:40.000 If we took this revolution and instead of just going on a spending frenzy and saying, oh, let's just sort of live off of this victory, ride our coattails off of this forever, what if we took the gains from 2016, the dividends from 2016, and we invested that now?
01:09:01.000 And then what would happen in 20 years?
01:09:03.000 In other words, instead of saying this is the MAGA movement, this is the end all be all, what if instead we said everybody who was red pilled by the MAGA revolution, instead of them blowing and going crazy now, what if they all went to work for the next 20 years?
01:09:19.000 And what would happen by 2036 or 2040?
01:09:22.000 That's the mentality that we need.
01:09:24.000 So our Aussie friend there's got the right idea.
01:09:27.000 But let's see, we'll bring in two more callers here.
01:09:32.000 Why don't we hear from, let's see.
01:09:37.000 Corey?
01:09:38.000 I don't think.
01:09:38.000 Have we heard from Corey before?
01:09:40.000 Let me scroll around real quick and take a look.
01:09:44.000 Yeah, I don't think we have.
01:09:46.000 So we'll bring in Corey.
01:09:48.000 He just said Corey.
01:09:50.000 Hey, what's going on?
01:09:52.000 Hey, how's it going?
01:09:55.000 Going well.
01:09:55.000 How about you?
01:09:57.000 I am doing great.
01:09:58.000 Wow, I didn't expect to get in.
01:10:01.000 Nice.
01:10:03.000 So I've got a little question for you.
01:10:05.000 Okay.
01:10:07.000 Other night, I sent in a super chat by the pseudonym Bass Catboy.
01:10:12.000 Okay.
01:10:13.000 And I recall asking you your thoughts on the lolly question.
01:10:18.000 Ah, yes.
01:10:19.000 Yeah.
01:10:20.000 Yeah.
01:10:21.000 So, not a fed.
01:10:22.000 Not a fed.
01:10:24.000 Genuinely just wondering where do you stand on that, you know?
01:10:28.000 On the lolly question?
01:10:29.000 Well, yeah.
01:10:31.000 What is lolly, right?
01:10:32.000 That's like hentai, but what?
01:10:33.000 No, no, no, not hentai.
01:10:35.000 Not hentai.
01:10:36.000 No, no, no, no.
01:10:38.000 Just, you know, anime.
01:10:40.000 Not hentai.
01:10:41.000 No, no, no.
01:10:42.000 Let me look it up.
01:10:43.000 Let me look it up.
01:10:44.000 Halali.
01:10:45.000 All right.
01:10:45.000 All right.
01:10:47.000 Oh, yikes, department.
01:10:49.000 Yeah, it's from Lolita.
01:10:50.000 Yeah, generally, it's going to be a disavowal for me.
01:10:53.000 I'm going to have to say something.
01:10:54.000 All right, that's fair.
01:10:54.000 Not really my thing.
01:10:57.000 Yeah, I don't know.
01:10:58.000 I mean, what do you got a badge to show me or something?
01:11:01.000 I mean, really.
01:11:04.000 No, no, that's fair, man.
01:11:05.000 That's fair, man.
01:11:06.000 No.
01:11:07.000 Seriously, no.
01:11:08.000 Just negging you a bit.
01:11:09.000 Keep up the good work, man.
01:11:10.000 Please don't bend me.
01:11:11.000 I'm looking at general right now.
01:11:13.000 Please do not bend me.
01:11:15.000 Have a good one, man.
01:11:16.000 Seriously, keep up the good work.
01:11:17.000 You're the best optics you got.
01:11:19.000 Turn me Christian, unironically.
01:11:20.000 Right on.
01:11:21.000 Glad to hear it.
01:11:22.000 Thanks for the call, big guy.
01:11:24.000 All right.
01:11:24.000 I won't ban you.
01:11:25.000 Have a good one.
01:11:26.000 All right.
01:11:26.000 Take it easy.
01:11:27.000 Okay.
01:11:28.000 This guy, Corey.
01:11:30.000 Best call of the night.
01:11:31.000 What a guy.
01:11:33.000 That's a good call.
01:11:34.000 Fun, friendly, lighthearted.
01:11:37.000 That's what we got to be on the Colin Show.
01:11:40.000 Real star there.
01:11:42.000 Let's see, we'll bring in one last caller here.
01:11:45.000 Who's it going to be?
01:11:47.000 How about we hear from Enward Sayer?
01:11:53.000 And we'll hear what he has to say.
01:11:55.000 And apologies to everybody else, but you see, we got like 25 people in here, but we'll bring him in.
01:12:00.000 Hey, what's going on?
01:12:03.000 Hey, Nick!
01:12:04.000 Hey!
01:12:05.000 What's up, big guy?
01:12:06.000 Hey, nothing!
01:12:07.000 What's up with you?
01:12:09.000 Just zooming around.
01:12:10.000 Had a little, a couple strategy questions I thought I'd toss your way.
01:12:14.000 Okay.
01:12:15.000 Yeah, I'm going to try to sound a little less autistic than the Canadian caller earlier, but we'll see here.
01:12:22.000 Okay.
01:12:22.000 What do you think about bullying, Nick?
01:12:25.000 Bullying?
01:12:26.000 Yeah, like I think it's kind of actually an epic tool for the right.
01:12:30.000 In what context?
01:12:31.000 Well, I don't know.
01:12:32.000 Like sometimes I see these, you know, kind of softer guys and kind of weak, kind of lonely.
01:12:38.000 And originally, originally I thought it was like, uh, might be a good opportunity to recruit people, but you really don't want to see those people like hanging around the movement.
01:12:46.000 I think it's kind of fun to like, um, you know, mog them essentially.
01:12:50.000 Yeah, I'm a fan of bullying.
01:12:52.000 I think, uh, yeah, I mean, even the invention of the word bullying to me is, uh, Sort of wrong because giving people a hard time is sort of just a natural part of life.
01:13:04.000 Right, right.
01:13:05.000 I mean, there's a constructive element to it.
01:13:08.000 I mean, it's not always.
01:13:11.000 Yeah, people respond, I think, some people respond to the sort of being nice and being totally accepting, but there's a point at which only toughness works.
01:13:22.000 And I think that applies in a lot of different contexts.
01:13:27.000 With weak right wing people, I think it's an absolute must.
01:13:30.000 I'm famous for being like a bridge burner or, you know, a countersignaler or whatever, but look at how effective that has been.
01:13:37.000 You know, if you're a pagan now, you're a joke.
01:13:40.000 If you're a wignat, if you're an alt rider, you're a joke.
01:13:43.000 You're a faggot.
01:13:43.000 You're a loser.
01:13:45.000 You know, nobody I don't think came over to the optic side because I made a really good argument, although I did, but it was because being an alt right person means being stale and being corny and being cheesy, being associated with a gay academic.
01:13:59.000 The little, yeah, the Richard Spencer, yeah, no, yeah, I.
01:14:02.000 I totally know what you mean, and there's admiration to it, is what I think it is.
01:14:05.000 Like, you see some guy just going out there, Nick the knife, slicing people up.
01:14:09.000 It's like, that's epic.
01:14:11.000 I like to see big Latin brain, you know, Nick Chad just taking people down.
01:14:16.000 That is epic, and there's no other way to put it.
01:14:18.000 But another one I wanted to throw by you is what do you think about, like, the kind of edgy meme lord optic then?
01:14:24.000 Because I think that's the way a lot of us got here, was just kind of like the edgy, naughty jokes online.
01:14:31.000 But I feel like that's kind of at this point.
01:14:34.000 Like, kind of a stale optic, and it looks kind of gross and retarded.
01:14:37.000 Yeah, big agree on that.
01:14:39.000 Another salient point, especially now.
01:14:43.000 Yeah, people have to realize that everything has a time and a place.
01:14:47.000 You know, there's an overused quote by Saul Alinsky, which I forget the exact phrase, but he says something to the effect that something that drags on too long becomes a drag.
01:14:56.000 I don't know if that's exactly what he says, but basically, you know, if you have a strategy that works and, Use it too much, it stops working.
01:15:06.000 You know, this applies to me, this applies to a lot of things.
01:15:10.000 You know, it stops being funny after a while.
01:15:12.000 It's like that episode of SpongeBob when he does the ripped pants joke.
01:15:16.000 These fucking retarded wig nats need to watch that episode because they're like, ripped pants, Rio, ripped pants.
01:15:22.000 And they're not realizing, hey, it's not funny anymore.
01:15:25.000 You know, they're still, oh, look at the Tron grid, the Fash Wave aesthetic.
01:15:29.000 Hey, are you a fellow Hawaii fasci guy?
01:15:32.000 Shut up, retard.
01:15:34.000 You've been doing that for four years.
01:15:36.000 So, yeah, I agree.
01:15:38.000 It's stale and dumb.
01:15:40.000 A lot of what it is, I think.
01:15:41.000 I mean, I might be Alex Jones and a little conspiracy theorist, but I think your enemy learns.
01:15:45.000 Like, they see that shit works and they co opt it.
01:15:47.000 Like, all the epic, like, you know, 2015, I don't know, kind of edgy logic stuff.
01:15:53.000 Like, boomers have stole that.
01:15:54.000 Like, you got, you know, the fucking, oh, snowflake, millennials, you lip cards.
01:15:59.000 Like, they have murdered words.
01:16:01.000 It's insane when it dies.
01:16:04.000 Yeah, yeah, exactly.
01:16:06.000 So, I'm in agreement with that.
01:16:06.000 Exactly.
01:16:08.000 Well, yeah, I mean, I see this all the time.
01:16:10.000 You know, people still trying to impress you with how edgy they are.
01:16:13.000 You know, whoa, that's really shocking.
01:16:15.000 Yeah, that's not funny anymore.
01:16:17.000 No, yeah, you just sound fucking gay.
01:16:18.000 Like, shut up.
01:16:19.000 Yeah, yeah, exactly.
01:16:21.000 For us to succeed, and this is what people don't understand, they're so committed to.
01:16:26.000 You know, this being a true believer that they've forgotten how to be practical, you know, what is useful.
01:16:33.000 I'm all about what's fresh, what's funny.
01:16:36.000 I'm about good content and everything else doesn't matter.
01:16:39.000 And so when you're focused on that, you're focused on, you know, what is working at the time, what is trendy, you know, again, what is new and innovative.
01:16:48.000 And that's what we have to be focused on is that kind of stuff instead of trying to make the same stuff work, trying to make the same stuff stick.
01:16:55.000 You know, people are still doing the merchant, people are still doing.
01:16:58.000 All this goofy stuff that just doesn't work anymore because it's not the same context.
01:17:03.000 You know, I think what changed is that in a big way, a lot of the alt-right stuff is no longer ironic anymore.
01:17:10.000 It's no longer subtle.
01:17:11.000 Like in 2016, you could get away with that being like, oh, he's not serious.
01:17:15.000 That's just ironic or that's funny.
01:17:17.000 But now these are actual just losers who have this insane, crazy, extreme worldview where they literally think they're going to make the revolution happen from their basement.
01:17:28.000 Yeah, they think they're the next Hitler.
01:17:29.000 Yeah, and people are like, yeah, we don't want to be a part of that.
01:17:32.000 So, we have to move on.
01:17:34.000 We have to go with what's the next best thing.
01:17:37.000 You look at TikTok, for example.
01:17:39.000 You look at the Irony Bros.
01:17:41.000 The Irony Bros get it.
01:17:42.000 Because they're banned every week, they have a different brand every week.
01:17:46.000 So, they're trying things that are new, things that are funny.
01:17:49.000 And as a result, they're more relatable.
01:17:51.000 People are receptive to their messaging.
01:17:53.000 And that's how we have to be.
01:17:54.000 We have to get away from all the.
01:17:56.000 We have to divorce ourselves from these old, stale memes that people are just so invested in.
01:18:02.000 We've got to get away from that.
01:18:03.000 We have to attach ourselves to.
01:18:06.000 The trendiest, the freshest stuff, and a lot of that alt right crap.
01:18:10.000 It's been old for a long time.
01:18:12.000 I've been vicious about that on my show.
01:18:14.000 People are like, oh, you're mean.
01:18:16.000 You're attacking our people.
01:18:16.000 You're mean.
01:18:18.000 No, but we have to get rid of that stuff.
01:18:20.000 We have to ridicule the old stuff.
01:18:22.000 No, yeah.
01:18:23.000 It's a terrible brand.
01:18:24.000 I think distancing yourself from it is brilliant.
01:18:26.000 But I got an ethical kind of question.
01:18:29.000 I guess not so much ethical, but I want to see if you think I did the right thing here.
01:18:34.000 I was at one of these.
01:18:36.000 It's like part of a school club.
01:18:37.000 It's called JSA.
01:18:38.000 It stands for the Junior State of America.
01:18:40.000 You go, you write bills, you kind of argue on them, and you get this fun little school trip to D.C. once a year where you put it all together and all these kids from all these different chapters come and you fight them.
01:18:50.000 I'm pretty good at it.
01:18:52.000 But, anyways, we were like talking to these kids at the caucuses, and I meet this edgy little dude.
01:18:58.000 He's kind of in the corner, and I go over to talk to him, and I'm like, I'm kind of giving him the rundown, trying to see what he thinks.
01:19:06.000 And he tells me, he's like, I asked him, like, can you put a label on yourself?
01:19:09.000 Like, I'm having trouble.
01:19:09.000 Like, why are you?
01:19:10.000 And he's like, well, I'm a fascist.
01:19:15.000 And I look at him and I go, look, buddy, look, I'm trying to save your life here, okay?
01:19:23.000 Don't call yourself that anymore, okay?
01:19:25.000 Even if, I mean, the ideology itself is kind of retarded, but I don't want this kid to get himself killed, you know, docs and all this shit.
01:19:32.000 And I'm like, find another label.
01:19:35.000 Anything else.
01:19:35.000 Like, if I hear you say that shit again, you're dead.
01:19:39.000 But looking back at it, I think it kind of would be funny to watch him flounder some other day, but I don't know.
01:19:43.000 What do you think?
01:19:44.000 Yeah, I agree.
01:19:45.000 I agree.
01:19:46.000 And a lot of people are like, but fascism is the only way forward.
01:19:49.000 Even if you believe that.
01:19:50.000 That's fucked up.
01:19:51.000 Exactly.
01:19:52.000 You're like a Hollywood villain.
01:19:53.000 You have to understand, like, if you want these people to take your side, they hear fascists and they go, Oh, windmillman, German windmillman, bad, bad.
01:20:01.000 Like, why would you ever associate yourself with that fucking label?
01:20:05.000 Like, they believe the NPC meme, they know people are dumb, and then they're like, Yeah, I'm a Hollywood villain.
01:20:11.000 You might as well just say that.
01:20:12.000 I'm the bad guy from the movies.
01:20:13.000 Like, shut the fuck up.
01:20:15.000 Yes, yes, yes, exactly.
01:20:17.000 100%.
01:20:18.000 100%.
01:20:19.000 And you get it.
01:20:20.000 Normal people get this.
01:20:23.000 You know, you just have to, again, you have to get rid of all this intellectual purity.
01:20:28.000 It's not about that.
01:20:29.000 Ideas at the end of the day don't really matter.
01:20:32.000 What matters is power.
01:20:34.000 The people who wield power are the people who know how to control language.
01:20:38.000 And that's what the alt right doesn't understand how to control language.
01:20:42.000 Because you're right, if you go up to somebody and say, I'm a fascist, like you either sound like, like you say, Hollywood villain, or you sound like, you know, what would be analogous on the right to some left wing, you know, guy with.
01:20:56.000 Glasses saying, I'm a Maoist syndicalist.
01:20:59.000 Oh, really?
01:21:00.000 Shut up, faggot.
01:21:01.000 You know, so it doesn't matter.
01:21:03.000 And look, you may very well be a fascist, whatever.
01:21:06.000 You know, a lot of people say I have, you know, technically fascist leanings, but I would never call myself that.
01:21:11.000 I call myself a reactionary.
01:21:13.000 I call myself an authentically right wing, traditionalist, whatever.
01:21:17.000 But you have to control the language.
01:21:20.000 And the only way you can control the language is by mirroring yourself to pragmatism above all else.
01:21:26.000 That's what these people don't understand.
01:21:28.000 They think it's all about ideas.
01:21:29.000 They think if we just find the perfect, most correct belief structure and we communicate it in the purest, most truthful way, well, eventually people will come around, wrong, wrong, uh uh, it doesn't work.
01:21:44.000 You have to control the language.
01:21:46.000 And the only way you do that is by, again, a ruthless commitment to pragmatism.
01:21:50.000 And that's the only way.
01:21:52.000 And I think you make a lot of good points.
01:21:54.000 This has been the best call so far because it's all connected.
01:21:58.000 The bullying, the language, It's all there.
01:21:58.000 It's all connected.
01:22:01.000 You know, the only way, and this is something that you see all the time the people that win in politics, the people that own people in politics, are not the people that win the argument.
01:22:11.000 They're the people that people perceive as winning, the people that look the coolest, that project the highest status.
01:22:18.000 This is why, for example, one Zoomer is worth more than a million Richard Spencer's and Mike Enoch's.
01:22:25.000 Because at the end of the day, if you're a young, sexy, white, 20 something guy, Who knows how to do a Fortnite dance and make a TikTok?
01:22:33.000 You have more social value than some fat guy, Gen Xer with a beard who does a podcast.
01:22:40.000 Oh, well, you know, that guy may be based in Red Pill and all the rest.
01:22:44.000 He's got a college degree, though, Nick.
01:22:45.000 Yeah, right.
01:22:47.000 Yeah, that too.
01:22:48.000 But at the end of the day, it's about that social proof.
01:22:51.000 If you're projecting status, if you're projecting value, that matters infinitely more.
01:22:56.000 This is why people pay millions of dollars in politics to be surrounded with.
01:23:02.000 People understand this stuff.
01:23:03.000 They pay millions on marketing for people that understand this stuff.
01:23:07.000 But all these wig nets.
01:23:08.000 No, yeah.
01:23:09.000 Of course.
01:23:10.000 If we just do that.
01:23:11.000 Yeah, go ahead.
01:23:12.000 I know I'm the last, so I'm going to try not to waste too much of your time.
01:23:14.000 But one last thing I wanted to ask, just because you are the expert on this kind of thing.
01:23:18.000 I've got a lot of my strategy from you.
01:23:22.000 So I'm going to ask what label do you like to use?
01:23:24.000 I've kind of co opted the whole paleo conservative thing, but it seems kind of long.
01:23:29.000 I don't know.
01:23:30.000 I feel like something shorter and catchier would hook the NPC better.
01:23:33.000 I mean, Yeah, you're right.
01:23:35.000 Paleoconservative is too long.
01:23:37.000 I stopped using it for a long time because it's too long, and paleo as a prefix means old.
01:23:44.000 So when you say paleoconservative, number one, nobody knows what that is.
01:23:48.000 It is too long, and by definition, it sounds sort of old and crusty.
01:23:53.000 People made me bring it back because it is technically what I identify as.
01:23:58.000 But yeah, eventually, we're going to have to come up with something catchier.
01:24:01.000 I haven't found what that term is.
01:24:03.000 Maybe American nationalist.
01:24:05.000 That has some problematic connotations with civic nationalism.
01:24:09.000 Yeah.
01:24:10.000 I'd stay away from nationalist.
01:24:11.000 Yeah.
01:24:12.000 Nationalist may be good.
01:24:13.000 America first is good.
01:24:16.000 But we're going to have to find one.
01:24:17.000 The problem is that alt right was so perfect because it was.
01:24:21.000 Staccato, it was short, it was, you know, in terms of alt, you know, that's obviously a way to shorten alternative.
01:24:29.000 And what we are is an alternative to the conventional right.
01:24:32.000 So it's so perfect and such a shame that all the retards co opted that.
01:24:37.000 But we're going to have to find something.
01:24:39.000 I haven't found it yet, but we're going to have to find the one that is both optical, that is like clean, it has no negative connotations, it's short, it communicates what we're trying to say.
01:24:49.000 But I haven't found it yet.
01:24:50.000 Maybe we're going to have to have a, you know, some kind of brainstorming thing or a sweepstakes, but.
01:24:55.000 But I haven't found it yet, so no good answer yet.
01:24:58.000 All right.
01:24:59.000 Well, Epic.
01:25:00.000 Thanks for bestowing your wisdom on me.
01:25:03.000 Have a great night, Nicholas.
01:25:04.000 You too, man.
01:25:05.000 Best call of the night.
01:25:05.000 Great call.
01:25:06.000 Take it easy.
01:25:07.000 Thank you so much.
01:25:08.000 I try.
01:25:09.000 All right.
01:25:09.000 Take it easy.
01:25:10.000 You too, buddy.
01:25:11.000 All right.
01:25:12.000 Great call.
01:25:13.000 I hope that was a Based and Red Pill Zoomer because that guy really gets it.
01:25:16.000 That's a guy that I want to hang out with.
01:25:18.000 You know, some people they call into the show and they're like, well, I don't want to compare with others, but, you know, that's somebody who gets it.
01:25:25.000 Listen to that call.
01:25:26.000 And maybe he's familiar with the show, my style or something, but these are the people that we need on the show.
01:25:34.000 People that have that edge, that meanness, that ability to say, F you, you're a fag.
01:25:41.000 That's the kind of mentality that we have to get ourselves into.
01:25:44.000 And look, Jared Taylor came on the show and said as much.
01:25:46.000 I know a lot of people come in and they say, oh, this guy, this 20 year old, whatever, thinks he knows everything.
01:25:53.000 Jared Taylor has said as much.
01:25:55.000 I think he's the most respectable person in the movement with the most credibility.
01:25:59.000 You know, he says we have to be ruthless.
01:26:01.000 We have to be giving our ideas the benefit of the doubt in the sense that we shouldn't be a liability to the message we're trying to put forward.
01:26:08.000 In other words, have the best look, the best arguments, the best rhetoric, and all the rest.
01:26:13.000 And the way to do that is to have, you know, people, it's superficial, it is, but people that look good, that sound good, and they're relatable, they're hip, they're fresh.
01:26:23.000 That's the way to push it.
01:26:25.000 You know, and somebody just put a super chat about Charlie Kirk.
01:26:28.000 I'm going to be reading super chats and Streamlabs in a moment.
01:26:31.000 But look at Charlie Kirk.
01:26:33.000 Why does his message fail?
01:26:34.000 It's not because of the message.
01:26:36.000 It's because of the look.
01:26:37.000 He goes up there and he's in like jeans and a jacket.
01:26:41.000 And I know I do something similar.
01:26:44.000 Yeah, I guess I should maybe.
01:26:47.000 Here's why it's unacceptable for him.
01:26:48.000 He has money.
01:26:49.000 I don't have money.
01:26:50.000 When I get money, trust me, I'll look a lot better.
01:26:53.000 I'll get my teeth bonded and I'll do something about my hair and I'll get a better wardrobe.
01:26:58.000 But look, Charlie Kirk gets up there.
01:27:00.000 He's wearing jeans.
01:27:01.000 He's wearing like dad jeans, dad shoes.
01:27:04.000 And he just looks like a doofus.
01:27:06.000 He's not cool.
01:27:07.000 He's not hip.
01:27:09.000 He doesn't understand how to look cool or hip or mitigate what's not cool about him.
01:27:13.000 He's not self aware.
01:27:15.000 And so when he gets up there, the worst thing that the left says about him is not that he's wrong, it's that he's a loser.
01:27:21.000 You know, you see those Turning Point USA memes, and the most damaging thing to the Turning Point brand is not that they're capitalist shills bought and paid for by the Koch brothers, it's that Charlie Kirk looks like a retard, and he sounds like a retard, and he's not cool.
01:27:36.000 Same with Ben Shapiro.
01:27:37.000 You know, do you think that the biggest problem with Ben Shapiro is that he's this Israel first shill?
01:27:41.000 Not in the eyes of normal people, it's that he's a dork.
01:27:44.000 He's a short, you know, dorky, nasally Jewish guy.
01:27:48.000 People compare me to Ben Shapiro a lot, so I guess maybe I don't have room to talk.
01:27:52.000 But I'm critiquing.
01:27:53.000 I'm supposed to create the Ubermensch.
01:27:55.000 I'm like Schopenhauer, I'm the sculptor, and the movement is the marble.
01:27:59.000 So I'm sculpting it.
01:28:00.000 Somebody like Mike Moss, somebody like Party Goy, these are the kinds of people he needs in the movement.
01:28:05.000 Even Milo, you know, I didn't like Milo for what he stood for, but Milo was tall.
01:28:10.000 He was handsome.
01:28:11.000 He was trendy.
01:28:12.000 He was hip.
01:28:14.000 It's a lot harder for the left to.
01:28:16.000 Take somebody out when they can't say they're dorky or stodgy or uncool or whatever.
01:28:21.000 And that's the kind of aesthetic that we need.
01:28:23.000 Same with Donald Trump.
01:28:24.000 You know, for all that Donald Trump is, you know, he's a boomer and everything, but look, he's a billionaire celebrity.
01:28:30.000 Like, he's cool.
01:28:32.000 He flies in on a jet with his name on it, he announced in a building with his name on it.
01:28:36.000 You can't take away the cool factor from the guy.
01:28:39.000 And that's what the alt right doesn't understand.
01:28:42.000 They don't understand optics.
01:28:44.000 That's the name of the game always.
01:28:46.000 But anyway, we're going to take a look at our Stream Labs and Super Chats.
01:28:50.000 That's going to do it for the call in portion.
01:28:53.000 So I can finally take the headphones off.
01:28:55.000 I hate wearing the headphones because then I can't hear myself.
01:28:59.000 I feel like I have to yell.
01:29:01.000 It squeezes my head, my big fat head.
01:29:04.000 So let's take a look at our Stream Labs now.
01:29:08.000 And let's see, we've got one from It's All About the Benjamins who says, Have you seen true news?
01:29:16.000 It's definitely a program worth spreading.
01:29:18.000 I recommend everyone check it out.
01:29:22.000 It wouldn't surprise me if they keep growing.
01:29:24.000 YouTube might eventually have a problem with them.
01:29:26.000 I haven't heard of them, but I'll check them out.
01:29:29.000 Big Mac Defenders says the call in shows make us look like total retards with no self awareness.
01:29:34.000 Hey, Nick, can't wait to hear the spurgs.
01:29:36.000 Five seconds later, I'm just chilling to your eviction.
01:29:41.000 Yeah, yeah, that one was a little bit off to a rough start, I guess you could say.
01:29:47.000 I like the call in shills because, I don't know, they're fun.
01:29:51.000 They're funny.
01:29:52.000 I think people get it.
01:29:54.000 Electric Union says, Hey, I am a union apprentice electrician.
01:29:57.000 The trade work is booming.
01:29:59.000 Great time to get in.
01:30:00.000 You mentioned advanced degree pursuit after trade school, which is precisely my mindset.
01:30:05.000 Electrical engineering.
01:30:07.000 Until then, I will slowly red pill the blue dog union bots.
01:30:10.000 Yeah, look, you just have to think of things in terms of money.
01:30:15.000 That's what people don't do.
01:30:17.000 They think things.
01:30:18.000 They think of things in terms of process that, oh, well, this is just what you do.
01:30:22.000 I go to high school, I go to college, they don't know what to do afterwards.
01:30:27.000 I pay for college.
01:30:29.000 How do I pay for college?
01:30:30.000 I don't know.
01:30:32.000 You know, and I see this all the time, all my peers.
01:30:35.000 What are you going to do?
01:30:36.000 What are you going to graduate and do?
01:30:38.000 How are you going to pay for this?
01:30:40.000 Nobody knows.
01:30:42.000 That's the biggest mistake you can make.
01:30:44.000 Really, you can't go wrong as long as you have a plan and a good plan that is viable.
01:30:51.000 That is realistic.
01:30:52.000 If you don't have a plan, you're boned.
01:30:54.000 And that's what people do.
01:30:55.000 They just go into this huge expense and huge commitment.
01:30:59.000 Because it's not just, look, maybe you go to college.
01:31:02.000 This is what I did.
01:31:03.000 You go to college for one year, and if I didn't have a massive scholarship, I would have been $60,000 in the hole for one year.
01:31:10.000 So if you make that kind of investment, hey, you're set for four years or until you graduate.
01:31:14.000 And hey, good luck finding a job then.
01:31:17.000 So what you really just need to figure out is what am I going to do?
01:31:21.000 What's my plan for the next five years?
01:31:23.000 What are my goals?
01:31:25.000 How do I achieve that?
01:31:27.000 You know, if that's home ownership, if that's getting married, if that's, you know, a certain level of, you know, what you want your income to be, whatever it is, but you need to have a plan and a step by step guide that is realistic for how to get there, what you want to do.
01:31:42.000 But that's the biggest mistake I see people make they go from high school right into college.
01:31:46.000 They don't know what they're doing, they don't have a plan.
01:31:49.000 You know, when I was 18, do you want to know how I chose my college?
01:31:53.000 I just said, Well, I like Boston because they have clam chowder.
01:31:58.000 And my parents told me that I guess they have kind of a good program.
01:32:02.000 And hey, South Carolina, I'll apply there because, you know, they're having this dinner.
01:32:06.000 They have this free lobster dinner in Chicago to tell you about their program.
01:32:10.000 So I'll apply there.
01:32:12.000 And I'll apply to Auburn because they have the Mises Institute.
01:32:14.000 That was generally a good decision.
01:32:16.000 Because the Mises Institute, that was when I was into economics.
01:32:20.000 But I ultimately decided on BU because I said, well, they've got the lowest acceptance rate and they've got the best food.
01:32:25.000 So I'll go there.
01:32:26.000 Okay?
01:32:27.000 So that was the kind of decision making that I was making at 18 years old.
01:32:31.000 And like I said, if I didn't get a big scholarship because I'm a genius, I would have been paying 65 grand for tuition, an extra 15 grand for housing and everything else.
01:32:42.000 And you're not in the right mentality to do those kinds of things.
01:32:45.000 Just make a plan.
01:32:46.000 You know, if my plan was.
01:32:49.000 Okay, I've got a job lined up.
01:32:51.000 I have selected my career path.
01:32:52.000 I'm passionate about this particular thing.
01:32:55.000 I've done my research.
01:32:56.000 I like this program they have at BU.
01:32:58.000 I'm going to talk to this professor.
01:33:00.000 I'm going to finance it in this way.
01:33:02.000 I'm going to plan to be debt free by this year.
01:33:05.000 If that were the case, then I would say, okay, well, that was a good decision.
01:33:09.000 But it's really not dependent on what you do, just as long as why you're doing it, what the plan is.
01:33:16.000 But a good stream lab, a good tip there.
01:33:19.000 Let's take a look at the super chats.
01:33:21.000 And we'll see what we've got here.
01:33:24.000 Ruggles says, How do you feel about the AOC dance?
01:33:27.000 Do you have Castizo fever?
01:33:30.000 She is not a Castizo.
01:33:31.000 She is a Mestizo or a Mestiza.
01:33:34.000 And anyway, I don't get it.
01:33:36.000 Good body, but the face, man.
01:33:38.000 The face.
01:33:39.000 She looks like, come on.
01:33:42.000 I mean, the teeth, the whole whatever you got going on in the mouth area, very rough.
01:33:47.000 I'm not a fan.
01:33:49.000 Slayer says, What's up, Hawaii brother?
01:33:53.000 Thoughts on the recent drama between Ralph and that boomer 56 percenter, Coach Redpill?
01:33:59.000 I haven't been following that.
01:34:01.000 I don't really follow that circle too much.
01:34:05.000 But Coach Redpill's a faggot.
01:34:07.000 I called that from the beginning.
01:34:09.000 So I don't really know the latest drama, but that's my take.
01:34:13.000 Earthworm Jim says Have you read Joseph DeMestra?
01:34:16.000 He was the bastard and red pilled knicker over 300 years ago before it was cool.
01:34:20.000 Yeah, I've read a little bit.
01:34:22.000 The problem is it's very difficult to find his essays, at least in book form.
01:34:25.000 I had to pay like $50 for this.
01:34:28.000 Like a very bad quality compilation of his essays, and it was printed in the 50s from half price books.
01:34:36.000 And I remember specifically, I ordered one that said it was in very good condition.
01:34:40.000 It arrived, and I'm looking at it now.
01:34:42.000 It looks like shit.
01:34:44.000 But, you know, what can you do?
01:34:46.000 But yeah, I've read a little of Dimestra.
01:34:47.000 He really influenced my way of thinking in terms of if you think about the liberal constitution versus the so called divine right of the king, you know.
01:35:01.000 Getting ultimate sovereignty from God.
01:35:03.000 You know, I think that was a big and important thought in my development, so I'm a fan.
01:35:10.000 Sniff Brap says, Is your whole family as religious as you, Nick?
01:35:14.000 Not really.
01:35:15.000 I mean, you know, my whole family believes in God, but, you know, I guess in a sort of Protestant way, unfortunately.
01:35:22.000 I mean, we're Catholic, but, you know, my parents never were.
01:35:26.000 I mean, we went to church for a time, but it was never really something that was totally there every step of the way.
01:35:33.000 I forget when we stopped going.
01:35:35.000 As a family, but I think we went to church a lot when I was very, very young and then stopped probably when I was in elementary school.
01:35:44.000 But yeah, not religious in a very conventional sense.
01:35:48.000 We're a little bit sort of off the beaten path.
01:35:52.000 Earthworm Jim says just some boomer criticism.
01:35:55.000 And Shekels, your call in shows a real life version of the political call in scene in You're Not Elected Charlie Brown.
01:36:03.000 I don't know what that is.
01:36:05.000 So, all right.
01:36:07.000 JP says, many tradesmen have good careers, then go to school to get degrees.
01:36:11.000 So, trade school is a good idea if you have that aptitude.
01:36:14.000 You can always go to college later on, as many do.
01:36:16.000 Zoomers rise up.
01:36:18.000 Love the show.
01:36:18.000 Well, thanks, man.
01:36:20.000 Yeah, all good advice.
01:36:21.000 All good advice.
01:36:22.000 James says, I hate the call in shows.
01:36:25.000 Yeah, you're not alone.
01:36:27.000 But I don't know.
01:36:28.000 Should we just get rid of them all together?
01:36:30.000 Go back to the way it was when we would only do them during a holiday?
01:36:35.000 I don't know.
01:36:35.000 Maybe.
01:36:36.000 But I do like the call in show somewhat.
01:36:38.000 So, We'll have to figure it out eventually.
01:36:41.000 Joshua Larson says, binging on cringing tonight.
01:36:44.000 Yeah, a little bit.
01:36:46.000 Josh Sayer says, bro, what's the plan with CPAC?
01:36:49.000 LOL.
01:36:49.000 Can't really say, unfortunately.
01:36:52.000 I'll maybe get into that afterwards.
01:36:54.000 James says, the last call was good, but I still hate call ins.
01:36:59.000 Yeah, yeah, I know.
01:37:00.000 Kilo2 says, best call it is.
01:37:02.000 Yeah.
01:37:03.000 Lord Akira with a big stream lab.
01:37:06.000 Thank you very much.
01:37:07.000 Says, Nick saw Charlie Kirk and the usual conservative ink types.
01:37:11.000 Pimping out the whole Berkeley TPUSA kid getting sucker punched for victim points and shekels really made my blood boil.
01:37:18.000 Why do people on the right have to be such wimps?
01:37:21.000 They don't, but they are.
01:37:22.000 Everybody on the right is a wimp.
01:37:25.000 Nobody's willing to stick their neck out.
01:37:26.000 That's the biggest problem that we have.
01:37:28.000 Because you have a lot of people who are based in Red Pill, they know about the issues, and they just, you know, but they don't really stick their neck out ever.
01:37:37.000 And in some sense, I guess sometimes that's good, but.
01:37:42.000 There's sort of two schools of thought on this.
01:37:43.000 On the one hand, we have to be subversive.
01:37:47.000 We have to infiltrate.
01:37:48.000 And so that entails a great degree of tact.
01:37:52.000 And we have to infiltrate.
01:37:53.000 So we have to be on the down low.
01:37:55.000 There's another school of thought which says it's not going to get better until people start coming out on a lot of this stuff, on a lot of these issues, defending our guys.
01:38:04.000 And until that happens, I don't think it'll ever turn around.
01:38:08.000 At some point, there has to be people who are going to stand up and say, What's right and stick up for the people that are doing what's right.
01:38:17.000 And it's very difficult to see.
01:38:18.000 In a lot of cases, you'll have people who are more than capable of doing it and they just don't for whatever reason.
01:38:24.000 So the reason is that they don't have to be wimps.
01:38:29.000 Why do they have to be such wimps?
01:38:30.000 They don't have to be wimps, but they just are.
01:38:33.000 So nobody wants to do what's right for the country, they want to do what's right for themselves.
01:38:39.000 Sniff Brapp says, Do you think James also has the right optics?
01:38:44.000 I don't really want to go all in on James, but.
01:38:48.000 I mean, generally, yeah, I can nitpick on some things.
01:38:51.000 I can scrutinize on some things.
01:38:53.000 But generally, yeah, there are some things I would dial in.
01:38:57.000 A lot of the TRS stuff.
01:38:58.000 And look, this is a big reason why we split was, you know, over our affinity for the alt right and some of those other things.
01:39:07.000 So it's not, obviously, it's not me.
01:39:10.000 I think I'm the only one who has the optics that I prefer.
01:39:13.000 I think that's just sort of how it goes.
01:39:15.000 But generally, I think he's got the right idea.
01:39:18.000 But I'm a little bit, you know.
01:39:21.000 I can always nitpick on little things here and there, but generally he's got the right idea.
01:39:26.000 But I don't want to totally dive back into that because obviously it's a very contentious debate when we were debating about the internal optics of America First Media.
01:39:36.000 But anyway, let's see.
01:39:39.000 We've got Joe the Boomer says, Nikki, kiddo, it's me.
01:39:43.000 Don't you recognize me?
01:39:44.000 You should have brought me in.
01:39:45.000 I wanted to give the official daily brap response to that Cory guy who likes lolly.
01:39:49.000 We should hang fags like that.
01:39:52.000 He says, he's Christian.
01:39:53.000 My ass.
01:39:53.000 He's a friggin' homo.
01:39:54.000 I'll strangle him with my bare hands.
01:39:59.000 Great Streamlab there.
01:40:00.000 That one really made me laugh.
01:40:02.000 I'll bring you in next time, all right?
01:40:04.000 NotSumBritBong says all these callers with their anime avis.
01:40:08.000 Nick, what's up, big guy?
01:40:09.000 The weebs and allies come in packs to invade the Discord with their edgy opinions.
01:40:14.000 These feds are so far right, they need to turn it down, go to the left, and take it back now, y'all.
01:40:20.000 Great Streamlab.
01:40:21.000 Bill says, do you think in the future a president could get support to invoke Section 212 of the INA to declare a moratorium on legal immigration by selling it as a way to raise the minimum wage to $15?
01:40:33.000 No way.
01:40:34.000 You know, all these ideas about 4D chess, about like, you know, it's funny because the alt right says, I'm this 4D chess.
01:40:42.000 I come up with all these convoluted strategies.
01:40:44.000 And then they pitch ideas like this.
01:40:46.000 I don't want to call you dumb, but this is what a lot of alt right people do.
01:40:50.000 People like Eric Stryker.
01:40:51.000 Well, if we just adopted some of these democratic policies and pitched it in this way, it's like, no, you just can't.
01:40:58.000 These kinds of radical realignments, I don't see it happening that way.
01:41:02.000 It's really a lot easier said than done.
01:41:05.000 So, no, I don't think anyone will invoke the INA anytime soon to raise the minimum wage.
01:41:11.000 The problem is that the way the political paradigm is situated, immigration is split right and left.
01:41:18.000 You're never going to convince the left that cutting immigration is something that appeals to left wing economics.
01:41:26.000 Bernie Sanders, if that were really viable, Bernie Sanders would be for immigration restriction.
01:41:32.000 But why is he not for immigration restriction?
01:41:35.000 Why is Tulsi Gabbard not for immigration restriction?
01:41:38.000 Why are Why is Elizabeth Warren not for immigration restriction?
01:41:41.000 That's just the way it works.
01:41:43.000 The left is for open borders.
01:41:44.000 The ultimate agenda of the left is revolting against white America.
01:41:48.000 So maybe you could pitch that to, I don't know, unions or the working class.
01:41:54.000 But ultimately, I think that's not the way that people break anymore.
01:41:59.000 I don't think that's a way that you can bring people over.
01:42:01.000 It's a lot more cultural now than on the issues.
01:42:04.000 Norwood Nick says Do you think manlets should go into politics?
01:42:08.000 If so, should they wear shoe lifts?
01:42:10.000 On the one hand, height is a very important factor in a public figure's image.
01:42:14.000 However, it would be over for any man who is caught wearing lifts.
01:42:17.000 Mark Rubio wore lifts, and, you know, he's obviously, he got reelected in 2016.
01:42:24.000 And Rand Paul, I believe, is, what is he, 5'8, I think, or 5'9.
01:42:31.000 And Ted Cruz is only 5'10, I believe.
01:42:35.000 So, no, I think a lot of that is overhyped.
01:42:37.000 It's obviously legitimate.
01:42:39.000 Height does matter in politics, but.
01:42:41.000 I wouldn't discourage people because, look, again, unless you're talking about elected office, it doesn't matter.
01:42:48.000 I mean, it matters.
01:42:49.000 It matters in every profession how tall you are, but it really only is a deal breaker for elected office.
01:42:55.000 Like, look, if you're 5'6, it's going to be really tough for you to get into, to become a senator or whatever.
01:43:01.000 But when I say get into politics, I'm not saying become a representative.
01:43:04.000 Not for everybody.
01:43:06.000 For most people, it's just become an aide, become a functionary, become a bureaucrat.
01:43:10.000 And for those people, it doesn't matter.
01:43:12.000 So, yeah, everybody should get into politics no matter your height.
01:43:15.000 And even if you're a little bit shorter, you know, try, right?
01:43:18.000 Look at Jeff Sessions.
01:43:20.000 He's like a baby.
01:43:21.000 He's like a little baby man.
01:43:22.000 So it helps, but I don't think it's, unless you're running for president, I don't think it's the end of the world.
01:43:30.000 Bill Mitchell says Do you support classic traditionalism, believing tradition has to be organic and passed down generationally to be legitimate?
01:43:38.000 Or do you believe we can resurrect or adopt traditions and religions not connected to our ancestors?
01:43:43.000 Yeah, that's not called traditionalism.
01:43:47.000 Do you believe in traditionalism, except it's not traditional at all?
01:43:50.000 It's revolutionary and foreign?
01:43:53.000 Yeah, and I believe in the traditional traditionalism.
01:43:56.000 I believe in the variety of traditionalism, which is traditional, you know, not the one that is anti traditional, which is what you're describing.
01:44:04.000 What a stupid question.
01:44:05.000 You know, do you believe in traditions that are actually traditions and not just transplanted from other countries and cultures?
01:44:12.000 Yeah, yeah, basically.
01:44:14.000 Anand says, why does the right attract autism?
01:44:17.000 Well, you know, extremes attract autism.
01:44:20.000 You see autists on the left also.
01:44:22.000 This was not just a right.
01:44:24.000 But it looks like those are all our Stream Labs and Super Chats.
