hello simone today we are going to come up with a hypothesis for how the democrats can win the
00:00:06.700
next election cycle how they can fix the downward spiral because they are losing in every demographic
00:00:11.640
they are losing in women they are losing in black men and women they are losing in every younger
00:00:16.540
generation both men and women is voting more conservatively every generation at this point
00:00:20.420
it is bad for dims they are losing hard in the hispanic population camilla did worse than biden
00:00:27.480
in literally everything and i think one of the key things is is that both parties have an extremist
00:00:35.860
problem on the right there were some people are extremists is a wrong way to put it some people
00:00:41.540
who embody the negative stereotype that the other party paints that party as having so in the right
00:00:47.260
we paint the left as being these crazy wokest and on the left they paint us as being crazy racist
00:00:51.980
as we pointed out in the last video the crazy racists all left the right denounced trump and
00:00:58.080
want nothing to do with him and say they feel uncomfortable at right-wing rallies now yay for us
00:01:03.840
we sucked out the venom spit it in a toilet if you didn't watch that video we point out that almost
00:01:10.240
every mainstream right-wing voice that had racist tendencies or anti-semitic tendencies or homophobic
00:01:16.680
tendencies came out denounced trump and asked their supporters not to vote for him so when trump came
00:01:23.660
into office he came in without the support of this community and this wasn't just a thing was in the
00:01:29.460
influencer classes we can actually see this was in the data between the first time he was elected and
00:01:34.680
this time he was elected trump did worse with white men where he exploded in popularity was with black
00:01:41.480
men and hispanic men at least when you're contrasting between election cycles and i think a large part of
00:01:45.760
this was because the way that we have been talking about the immigrant crisis is no longer in racist
00:01:53.020
terms but in terms of simple economics and if you look at the counties where the difference in voting
00:01:59.280
was the most this election cycle they are the counties that were overwhelmingly hispanic the dims
00:02:04.840
thought this demographics is destiny thing we can just increase the number of minorities in this
00:02:09.700
country and we'll win forever and they they thought that this plan would work for them in the meantime
00:02:15.300
trump has been building his support within the very communities the democrats thought they had on lock
00:02:22.840
with things like the hispanic community moving in a direction where they might become a majority
00:02:27.220
republican voting bloc in the near future this is an existential crisis for democrats this is something
00:02:33.260
that was only possible because trump took the republican party's version of the woke population the
00:02:39.620
extremists who represent the negative stereotype that the other party paints of the republican party
00:02:46.280
and made the party unpalatable to them the left hasn't been able to do this with their woke extremists
00:02:52.720
the left they've got a problem because they have platformed these people these people own their rallies
00:03:00.760
these people own the foot soldiers of their events um meanwhile we got rid of any like racist foot
00:03:10.180
soldiers we had any homophobic foot soldiers we have and who did we replace them with wholesome
00:03:15.400
paragons of humanity like scott presley right so let's talk about one i think this is really interesting i'm
00:03:23.420
going to play a piece here from the new york times podcast and it's going to go over their analysis of
00:03:28.680
what they did wrong their analysis of what they need to change and i think it shows how bad things
00:03:33.800
are so the first thing they're going to go over here is they're going to say we need to make this
00:03:38.400
about class struggle again while remembering that the lower classes are only black people and women
00:03:45.140
and black women mostly so what happens now to the democratic coalition where where do we go from here
00:03:52.020
you know does depolarization by race and by class and by gender yeah and by geography does that
00:03:58.340
create opportunities thank you for putting it that way i think one of the challenges that the
00:04:03.440
democratic party has is that they are going to have to rediscover the language of class and not what
00:04:09.380
class meant in the 1960s yeah but the understanding that really the working class today are women and
00:04:16.700
women of color and so yeah building a new factory actually is not responding to their economic needs
00:04:21.820
sorry i want to hear your reaction to this because this is insane how wait so the whole hillbilly
00:04:28.240
allergy forgotten american class is not considered poor even if they're dying from deaths of despair and
00:04:36.000
they're losing jobs and their communities are crumbling they don't know the woman who said this
00:04:40.860
should have been said like if if the left was operating the way the right did now the other person on the
00:04:48.020
show because this woman was a black person arguing for her own self-interest uh you are a bigot you are
00:04:52.920
a racist and you need to like address whether or not your beliefs are based in ethno-supremacy
00:04:58.140
or any sort of tie to reality because it sounds like you're arguing from a position of ethno-supremacy
00:05:04.440
only your people matter because this is a black woman saying this when in reality the reason they lost
00:05:10.700
is because of this form of racism that they and bigotry that they and so they'll say oh it's not racism
00:05:16.880
well it's bigotry at least that anyone could think that in america class was a race-based thing
00:05:24.940
when you know that this woman got major benefits in her life and this is one of these things people
00:05:31.900
are like camilla wasn't woke why didn't she win this is like an important question the left needs to
00:05:37.300
engage with why didn't camilla win despite being not woke because she didn't attack the systemic
00:05:44.120
and racist system that wokeism set up right camilla should have gone on stage and said
00:05:51.860
i know that i achieved this position of the nomination due to a systemically unfair system
00:05:59.380
if i was white or i was a man i would not have this position that in my throughout my entire life
00:06:08.180
i have had advantages that other people in this country can only dream up
00:06:14.120
and that is why i have this position of power and i am humble in the face of all of the systemic
00:06:21.880
pressures that gave me an advantage over people who are working but she she would not have been able
00:06:27.560
to argue that without drawing serious attack because her behavior in the past just has shown her
00:06:34.920
willingness to exercise her privilege while throwing systemically underprivileged people like
00:06:40.880
jailed populations under the bus yeah and i need to point out here when i say that black people have
00:06:46.540
systemic privilege i'm talking about black middle class and upper class people black lower class
00:06:51.620
people are still pretty fucked in this country yeah by people like camilla who by the way left a huge
00:06:56.880
population in prison black population in prison she knew the crime lab had been compromised but she
00:07:02.400
wanted to win an election cycle she didn't care about them because the black middle class and upper
00:07:06.640
class in this country sees the black lower class as scum as inhuman she doesn't care about leaving
00:07:13.020
them in jail she doesn't care about them being shot on the street she doesn't care about their
00:07:17.120
businesses being burned down you know her you know like her running mate's wife opening her windows
00:07:22.800
to smell the smoke yeah being burned and being like well at least they're they're having this little
00:07:28.380
celebration the blm celebration it's disgusting they don't care about the damage that they do to these
00:07:34.480
communities because they don't see them as mattering because all of the systemic privileges that they
00:07:40.020
have fought for are only accrued by middle and upper class black individuals and i think that most of
00:07:46.480
the black world has fucking figured this out by now and then even if you are a hard-working middle or
00:07:52.320
upper class black individual that these systems end up backfiring for you because they make everyone
00:07:56.480
think that you got everything you did based on privilege and people who are like oh camilla isn't the
00:08:01.860
dei candidate biden literally said i will only hire a woman poc for this position that means that she
00:08:08.340
was given not just a massive systemic advantage but a systemic advantage of the level of irish need not
00:08:16.300
apply like huge huge huge now the next thing you hear so i'm gonna play more from the new york times
00:08:25.200
here so now they're going to talk about how she's a professor and she goes and she tries to
00:08:31.600
brainwash her students and she herself was brainwashed by a professor of hers into believing
00:08:37.200
that what they need to fight for what the democrats need to fight for is things like reparation so
00:08:41.140
we're gonna have a lot of people listening to this who are really down in the dumps disappointed by the
00:08:46.540
results and wondering where to go next i mean i'm curious like what are you gonna tell you your
00:08:50.840
students are gonna ask this right yeah yeah yeah what are you gonna tell them and what would you tell
00:08:55.520
tell our listeners and readers i think maybe i would tell them both the same thing because i think
00:09:01.300
in moments like this we're all kind of students in the sense that we are looking for someone
00:09:05.180
to help us make sense of the world and what i have said to them before and what i will say to them in
00:09:11.840
class on tuesday if they are listening is you know how to do this you may not believe you know how right
00:09:17.820
but you actually have already done this we have lived through this once before that is not to say that
00:09:24.220
there is not a great existential threat and danger i think there is and i've always thought there was
00:09:29.280
but i always think it's important to remember something my mentor told me years ago when i would
00:09:33.980
be despondent about like you know reparations programs or something and i thought you know this
00:09:38.780
thing is never going to happen right and he said to me yeah that's what they once said about ending
00:09:44.080
slavery tressie you know the thing is you don't know your moment in history until it's long gone so you
00:09:50.820
can't treat things like you know your moment in history you really do have to operate as if
00:09:56.120
tomorrow is happening totally so if you want to feel empowered to do something know that history
00:10:01.500
actually is only written after the things are settled and it is our job to settle them
00:10:08.200
so wait the new york times journalist is also a professor and she's arguing that they didn't fight
00:10:14.860
enough for things like reparations yes they need to one day reparations will be a reality
00:10:19.440
now we know reparations don't help people yeah we know now from the ubi study where they gave people
00:10:25.300
a thousand dollars a month for three years and they were at the end of it thirty thousand dollars
00:10:28.960
poorer than the people who didn't get this giving people big cash payments hurts them it hurts their
00:10:33.840
communities it permanently disables their communities if you're just joining us black people got their
00:10:39.140
reparations checks today and in short all hell is broken loose i think what everyone wants to know
00:10:44.620
now is what are you going to do with all this money uh i'm going to reinvest my money into the
00:10:50.220
community oh that's a very nice gesture what were you sorry is that your son no no i just bought this
00:10:56.760
baby cash but it's it's absolutely accurate this sketch as everybody knows if you give a big cash
00:11:02.880
hand out to the current black communities like it's a cultural problem that needs to be fixed
00:11:08.140
it's not a they don't have enough money problem there are other people cultures that came to the u.s
00:11:13.620
that had no money were historically disenfranchised like let's say the chinese for example or the
00:11:19.100
japanese who recently had literally everything taken from them much more recently than the black people
00:11:24.020
and starting from scratch after the period of internment during world war ii have built back a strong
00:11:30.020
culture that's not the cause of the difference the cause of the difference is internal to the
00:11:36.620
culture which can be seen if you go to our video about the zombification of black culture black
00:11:40.640
culture didn't used to be like this you go to the 1960s blacks had half the rate of white people
00:11:47.020
kids outside of web to be more specific only five percent of black children are born out of wedlock while
00:11:51.380
10 of white children were born out of wedlock today the number is around 70 of black children are
00:11:56.220
born out of wedlock progressives destroyed black culture ripped it apart and what we see now is
00:12:02.580
the shreds of it and it is always gross to me when i see something like blm being like well nuclear
00:12:07.420
families that's not a black thing that's a white thing i'm like no it used to be twice as black a
00:12:12.240
thing as it is a white thing historically speaking this changed when a marxist group took over the
00:12:17.640
civil rights movement see our video as curtis yarvin for an explanation of how that happened
00:12:22.740
yeah there was essentially black culture was showing better metrics in terms of how we judge
00:12:28.020
culture which is imparting fitness you know creating resilient successful people who have
00:12:33.220
kids and raise those kids to be resilient and successful it was doing better yeah and and the
00:12:39.040
wokeism that targeted black culture first because it took ownership of it and unfortunately and i'll admit
00:12:44.400
at the beginning i think that the the there there might have been truth to democrats really supporting
00:12:49.740
black culture more for a period in american history that is definitely no longer i mean
00:12:54.700
and i sometimes question this i i feel like a lot of the big thing now the the more that i look at it
00:13:02.080
it seems to be that well-intentioned people who just weren't part of the culture decided to
00:13:09.860
in a very white saviory kind of way take ownership of i'm going to help this disenfranchised
00:13:16.300
disadvantaged group that was already helping itself and then it like it kind of like when
00:13:22.640
when you introduce exogenous hormones to a body that body will stop its own internal production
00:13:27.200
and it can really throw everything off and that's that's not great and i think that that that might
00:13:32.780
be kind of what happened is they're like let's introduce hormone therapy a level of malevolence even
00:13:38.640
during that period so you have a founder of well i guess you have a planned parenthood thing but i think
00:13:43.120
hold on hold on hold on so for people who don't know this story we've done another video on it but
00:13:47.260
i'll just quickly go over it planned parenthood was started by somebody with strong ties to the kkk
00:13:51.900
with an explicit plan to wipe out black people in the united states well low genetic quality people
00:13:56.480
and she thought black people were disproportionately in this category this is admitted on the planned
00:13:59.900
parenthood website this is not something of controversy right now this is also not a point
00:14:04.320
of controversy there is the black population of the united states would be a quarter larger than it is
00:14:09.620
if planned parenthood didn't exist yeah it's the biggest genocide that no one talks about
00:14:14.600
83 percent of planned parenthood uh clinics are still in majority black neighborhoods so black
00:14:19.980
shouldn't laugh actually it's not it's really not funny when they started rolling this out didn't want
00:14:25.040
this and so she went to black democratic community leaders to get them to talk to their communities
00:14:32.120
and staff these clinics was majority black workers to try to get more black people in
00:14:37.440
and this was done the sterilization and genocide of their own communities was done by what's the
00:14:44.380
nice way to put this house isn't the nice way to put this but there i i think a class of this like
00:14:51.440
black middle class and upper class that camilla belongs to and the black community talks about
00:14:55.720
it's like the ruling whatever trying to keep all other black people down and like i don't think
00:14:59.620
they're wrong about this impression i mean it's not like 10 super rich black people who have sold out
00:15:04.540
but it like basically is there is a a black community that has completely sold out the black
00:15:09.980
underclass and i think that's why 25 by the way it was 25 of black men voted for trump in this election
00:15:16.040
cycle from like eight percent in previous cycles like they're waking up they know what's up now
00:15:19.760
yeah but anyway so i'll keep playing it i think donald trump is not the last gasp of the gop's uh descent
00:15:29.140
into chaos and madness but he is a sign that the only strategy they have they only have one tool if
00:15:38.300
there's an upside today is that yeah the tool worked this time but they only have one right yeah
00:15:44.040
that means there's plenty of opportunity here to build more and better tools and that's our job right
00:15:50.500
now yeah no i totally agree tressie so then the next thing she goes on about it she goes on and she
00:15:57.420
says republicans are only winning because of one thing but she doesn't specify what it is which is
00:16:03.320
oh really yeah so i i've come up with a few hypotheses she might be thinking it's racism
00:16:09.140
the problem is that more black people are voting for republicans
00:16:12.580
well no she no she could believe that because she could believe and this was something that came up
00:16:18.380
near the end of the election cycle that the black men and latino men etc were racist and they were
00:16:26.880
voting out of racism no no these accusations came up absolutely i mean the whole obama thing is you're
00:16:32.500
misogynist and all these other no no i really think that they may think it is racism
00:16:37.540
yeah continue go ahead oh no you have something to say i was gonna i i think i've seen enough coverage
00:16:46.680
of the the whole post-mortem the the leftist post-mortem election that they genuinely believe that
00:16:52.300
the non-white groups that they believe this what i'm saying is it's just obviously factually
00:16:57.700
inaccurate oh no yeah no obviously it's not accurate but it's what they believe all the
00:17:01.180
mainstream racists hate trump now all of the minority ethnic groups are voting more for
00:17:05.140
republicans than they ever have yeah no no it's it's not true but i think that's what she was
00:17:09.220
thinking because i can't imagine what else she was thinking the next thing she thinks is it could be
00:17:12.880
feminism like like oh we hate women we don't want a woman president except
00:17:15.640
no more women voted for for for trump in this election than they did when he was running against
00:17:21.380
biden it was definitely not that and also that just never came up in the election it just was
00:17:26.420
never discussed and common she didn't even really she never played up her femininity really so yeah i
00:17:33.040
definitely don't see that the last thing it could be is she means it's the economy but like if it's
00:17:37.260
the economy it just shows how disconnected this democratic elite is it's like all the people care
00:17:41.860
about is they can't afford food for their families like how selfish be they not vote for our ideological
00:17:47.840
agenda just because they can't that would be the most non-evil assumption on her part though i hope
00:17:53.420
that's what she believed because that's that's factual when the economy does poorly the the ruling
00:17:58.580
administration is more likely to be voted out that is and and so that would be the most realistic
00:18:03.140
thing i think for her to point out and i think this is really interesting that like
00:18:07.000
if if if if she's like oh they're only winning on one thing and they're just running the same
00:18:14.100
thing over and over again like she's acting like when trump is gone that the party is going to be
00:18:19.420
easier to beat and i'm like no you nut jobs when the party is gone we've got jd vance and effing scott
00:18:27.140
pressler in the wings here when when trump is gone you've got nothing except for one person who i'm
00:18:35.200
going to bring up at the end of this and i think could clinch it for the democrats
00:18:37.640
but shell obama she'd never know no no you're not thinking of them and as soon as i mentioned
00:18:44.120
dwayne the rock johnson no as soon as i mentioned you're gonna be like oh my god this would be the
00:18:49.540
perfect person okay i'm excited he would win in the comments weigh in don't cheat place your bets
00:18:57.000
okay so i'll see if i give it away in the title card or something like that but what what i what i what i'm
00:19:03.860
pointing out is that simone you had to talk about the thing you did with gpt where you're trying to
00:19:07.260
figure out like who's going to be the next democratic front runner for the next election
00:19:10.480
cycle you must be thinking of someone else no you were like i asked it who's going to be good to win
00:19:15.580
the next election cycle and this is you're inventing or sometimes you talk to other people and you think
00:19:21.560
that you're talking to me in your memories i've known that i did not do this okay well whoever i was
00:19:26.640
talking to you said they went on ai and they're like who's going to be the next person to run for
00:19:31.880
democratic office okay and it gave a list of people and then i asked ai i said i've never
00:19:38.240
heard of any of these people before they seem like small players and yeah i said in response
00:19:48.100
ai that's on purpose yeah they do have a problem whereas we are spoiled for choice
00:19:57.360
and i think due to trump's incredibly sure choice of jd vance as his running mate now uh what i want
00:20:04.340
to point out here to to understand the democrats loss i think this is a key thing and why it's going
00:20:10.120
to be so hard for them going forwards is they were not running on policy positions they weren't even
00:20:19.500
really running on vibes they were running on an alternate fictional reality and by this what i
00:20:26.160
mean is camel has two core talking points and this is what i get from democratic analysis who are like
00:20:31.040
analysts who were looking at this and saying okay how is she doing what she do wrong what she do
00:20:36.460
she really only had two points if you examine all of her speeches one is trump is gonna force
00:20:42.240
abortion restrictions on everyone in this country oh yeah all your rights will be taken away
00:20:46.320
all your abortion but trump said he'd veto any national abortion restriction like he's literally
00:20:51.740
pro-choice he did that in his last term and he overturned roe voices raid but roe versus wade isn't
00:20:57.040
even about like abortion restrictions it's about a weird thing the supreme court did that was like
00:21:01.080
obviously illegal constitutionally speaking and anyone who knows law knows it was illegal the supreme
00:21:06.920
court should have been able to make this decision and they did it and it could you know what i'm
00:21:11.220
talking about right like roe versus wade was basically oh yes being made by the supreme court
00:21:16.900
yeah not the way our constitution was set up yeah you're supposed to pass this is correcting a bug in
00:21:22.500
the code or grammatical inaccuracy yeah yeah this wasn't i don't even see it as an abortion issue i
00:21:28.020
just see it as a basic like yeah like you didn't do this right like if you want to do this there's a
00:21:32.780
way to do it and you didn't do it right yeah and so trump you know so so one this is a fiction
00:21:38.700
but then the the bigger fiction is that trump is going to like all black people are going to wake
00:21:42.700
up as slaves all everyone who's not like a cis white male is going to end up without any rights
00:21:47.580
that women are going to be forced to the mar-a-lago breeding pin and like this is just not reality and i
00:21:53.400
think we have seen such negative consequences from the democratic framing here you know not only do we
00:21:58.480
have the trump assassination attempts but you don't know about this simone and i know you'll be unhappy
00:22:02.180
to learn about there was another iranian plot that was thwarted too well yeah iran has a right to be
00:22:07.180
afraid of a trump presidency but yes so there was a guy who killed his wife his ex-wife oh i saw that
00:22:15.140
in the uk though well in the uk i thought it was you in the uk maybe it was just i read it in the
00:22:21.940
daily mail or something no i think it was minnesota minnesota so and he said quote my mental health and
00:22:28.260
the world can no longer peacefully coexist and a lot of the reason is religion i am terrified of the
00:22:33.740
religious zealots inflicting their misguided beliefs on me and my family i have intrusive
00:22:38.460
thoughts of being burned at the stake as a witch or crucified on a burning cross so he thought the
00:22:43.740
religious community and and this is the thing i tried to find this story in the u.s i could only
00:22:48.360
find it in uk and indian newspapers okay so that's why i thought it was sorry that's why i was i found
00:22:53.000
accounts of it happening in the u.s they were like crazy guy kills his family they did not say it was
00:22:58.580
because the left convinced him that his family wouldn't be safe that it was trump derangement
00:23:02.040
syndrome it reminds me so much of that scene in downfall excellent movie by the way you should
00:23:06.880
watch it about the downfall of the nazi versus shame where as soon as they realize they're not
00:23:10.620
in power one woman kills her family because like you haven't seen downfall i'm not watching people
00:23:16.600
kill their families no by the way not putting i looked at the clip and i was like oh i'm mentioning
00:23:22.560
a clip i should probably add it like i do what i put it mention other clips and i watched it and i was
00:23:26.640
like i don't nobody wants to see this right now like if you want to feel terrible you can go look
00:23:32.040
up the clip but i think it's just more proof of the left is just nazis they just act like nazis
00:23:38.680
they think like nazis it's been insane and the people who don't see it yet my god wait till they
00:23:44.540
come for you that's what i guess i have to say actually the wait till they come for you thing
00:23:48.100
has been a major thing for me recently where a lot of people have come to me and they're like i didn't
00:23:53.860
know that this could get me canceled and ruin my career and now it's happened to me and all of the
00:23:59.820
people who i went and i talked to about what i thought was a fairly normal thing they won't even
00:24:04.120
listen to me they're like well i haven't been canceled yet so i'm fine um and you're like well
00:24:10.120
cancellation is nothing like you know putting you in a concentration camp and it's like yeah well maybe
00:24:15.440
but having your only means of income taken away when you've got like a family of five kids
00:24:21.000
that's a pretty big deal and they do it so flippantly and with so much joy what are you
00:24:26.360
finger painting a bear a bear has nothing to do with accepting people of different races
00:24:33.560
i didn't know what else to paint start value go faster faster faster are you done what is it what
00:24:46.260
have you done people of all colors and greens holding hands beneath a rainbow good that wasn't
00:24:50.580
so hard was it not do it again very powerful movie i suggested i'm gonna make i can't even watch like
00:24:57.660
the one the one clip where his like hands are shaking and he adjusts his glasses oh that's such a
00:25:02.560
great clip so many good take take look there's some movies the kids just need to watch downfall is
00:25:08.760
one kids i think very good uh education fievel is i think the classic american cartoon all kids all
00:25:16.240
kids need to see an american tale and then fievel goes west but did you say never so young and you
00:25:25.500
have lost hope oh this is america the place to find the hope hope for the best work for the rest
00:25:35.400
and never say never again take my little friend to immigration everyone goes through immigration
00:25:42.700
absolutely top tier cinema the great at i think building american pride showing that we are a nation
00:25:50.860
of national clans working together and cultural clans working together against the oligarchs which
00:25:57.480
controlled the democratic party one of the crazy things i've seen as an outcome of this is they're
00:26:00.940
like elon gave trump all of this money and now he's going to control trump because billionaires and i was
00:26:06.900
like bitch camel raised three times what trump raised yeah seriously you live in an alternate fictional
00:26:15.400
reality and i think that that's one of the problems that they have is they are arguing
00:26:18.980
not based on policy but that we live in this alternate world where trump is a fascist and one
00:26:25.960
of the things i pointed out which is so insane is is now they're going through all this stuff about how
00:26:29.460
trump is going to like have like these frivolous lawsuits against his opponents and arrest them
00:26:34.340
and meanwhile they'll say the felon trump yeah who they actively and and very
00:26:40.100
why is he a felon no no no wait hold on why is he a felon and they go because he didn't label his
00:26:46.740
prostitute hush money payments as prostitute hush money payments and i'm like yeah obviously he
00:26:52.000
didn't do that obviously you're supposed to malcolm you're supposed to label them it's the law don't
00:26:57.620
you understand i bet campbell his husband didn't label them when he was paying off the nanny that he
00:27:02.080
knocked up i which by the way the those are child care payments malcolm they're a tax write-off shut
00:27:07.840
your mouth uh completely covered up that story you know he was told by his lawyer to do this and it
00:27:14.740
wasn't even it was only a felony because it was supposed to be a misdemeanor but they said it was
00:27:18.480
to cover up another crime what was the other crime like chose one so the choose your own adventure kind
00:27:23.780
of court case which was the best kind yeah so now i want to go over what i think might be causing this
00:27:30.640
and allowing the left to do this to create this alternate reality and why it's losing so hard it's that
00:27:36.720
there is a movement right now to disconnect yourself from reality and so it's not a movement
00:27:42.160
it is it is a a next step in human civilization that's a part of our downfall so if you've seen
00:27:49.720
or read ready player one there you're sort of looking at this universe in which people are living in
00:27:54.980
these like stacked apartments and really urbanized zones like even stacked trailer parks just spending
00:28:00.940
all of their day on the internet working online and and socializing online and there's no real
00:28:06.200
connection with reality there's no strong connection with your community and it seems so
00:28:11.940
sci-fi dystopian and yet that's that happened this summer that the tipping point was this summer and
00:28:17.780
we're able to live in these weird delusional siloed worlds because we're literally like a huge swath of
00:28:22.920
the population is not leaving their house so it's totally possible to live in this fantasy to come to
00:28:28.660
believe these things because you're not you're not literally transacting within society you're door
00:28:32.660
dashing you're getting everything delivered via amazon you're you're you're not having kids you're
00:28:37.380
not forced to interact with people in that in that environment are the kids playing outside on the
00:28:41.200
driveway yeah and he went to stop some people who are walking by our house to have a conversation
00:28:44.980
with him of course he did but yeah so you're not interacting with the community and and that will
00:28:50.080
cause you to be capable of falling into deeper and deeper delusions well no i mean that happened this
00:28:56.360
crazy cult which has had such an easy time creating this alternate reality for people because they're not
00:29:01.920
engaging so i'm gonna go over some like tweets here right so like okay here's a reddit post i am in a
00:29:06.420
committed relationship with my bed it understands me supports my netflix habits and never argues about
00:29:11.380
who finished the last of the ice cream or another person here people ask what my hobbies are and i say
00:29:18.220
rotting in bed with my shows and minding my business and then another person said great mind think alike
00:29:23.920
and then here is another post where somebody's like i'm kind of tired of all this to be honest
00:29:29.300
brat summer is just about watching rich people have fun it's a picture it was the first parasocial
00:29:35.480
party burnout summer where no one actually could afford to party or go out or like had the desire to go
00:29:41.300
out and hit a club it was more like whatever it is that young people do when they're having a rough
00:29:47.800
cash a kind of evening and morning but it was yeah it was the first time when that was entirely parasocial
00:29:54.000
but people were still trying to get the social cachet of it and and that parasocial burnout of
00:30:00.140
like i'm a wreck wasn't from partying hard it was from literally not being able to take care of
00:30:04.880
yourself and not get out of bed yeah so how do you win how do you win as a leftist right okay now how do
00:30:11.500
you win the way that you win and and this is what all the left are getting wrong they're like we need
00:30:16.640
to go harder into identity politics everything like that you need to do what the right did to our
00:30:21.260
racist you need to turn the wokes against you go out with a crucifix and scare the vampires from the
00:30:29.240
room you need to call out the wokies on their bullshit when they lie you need to say and this
00:30:37.420
is how trump won like if you're like the right didn't have to do this trump's first election cycle
00:30:42.480
he was like oh yeah the iraq war that was dumb as hell like meanwhile like kamala's like butting up
00:30:49.260
was like liz cheney and dick cheney right you know taking them on campaign trail with her
00:30:53.080
saying they were great public servants and and trump's like yeah that was a that was a cluster
00:30:58.460
like why did we do that i i said at the time i just love the way he looks at international
00:31:03.200
politics from the perspective of like was this a good deal or was this a bad deal like he's looking
00:31:08.000
at like were we were we paying too much for this it's just called like mainstream republicans week
00:31:13.120
he's like you guys are being manipulated like this so and people could be like but a mainstream
00:31:18.440
leftist figure could not survive if they did this
00:31:27.900
okay how i'm gonna see if you can think of the person i am thinking of is not in politics
00:31:34.460
they are a mainstream leftist media comedian and they are a male john stewart john stewart
00:31:41.760
oh and he even looks presidential could john stewart not clean an election cycles in clock
00:31:49.820
yeah actually so i'm gonna put a clip on screen of him right now of john stewart calling out
00:31:55.680
leftist media for bullshitting people about like panic and stuff like that yeah there was one story
00:32:03.220
that was so disturbing so dark even the news couldn't handle it in our editorial discussions
00:32:10.240
this morning we were asked not to show the image from this video video which we are intentionally
00:32:15.100
choosing not to show you we're not going to show because of how disturbing it is i was extremely
00:32:20.500
disturbed to see this horrible horrible violent imagery violent and dehumanizing imagery we're only
00:32:27.100
going to show you a clip of this briefly all right that's enough let's take it down
00:32:30.480
news channels show images from ukraine from gaza from natural disasters they get through them
00:32:39.540
dispassionately i can't imagine how devastating this footage must be former president donald trump
00:32:46.980
shared a video this one on his truth social account featuring an image of president joe biden
00:32:55.380
that's what was so disturbing and dehumanizing you wouldn't show it on television and
00:33:08.740
an airbrushed biden decal on the back of a truck
00:33:12.640
are you the same networks that show reruns of 9-11 every year and now hold on i want to put out one
00:33:19.860
where he was on stephen colbert when the wuhan lab leak thing was going on oh no and this is when
00:33:24.740
all the left was still like dogmatically like oh wuhan lab leak and he was like this is fucking
00:33:29.300
obviously it was a lab leak like what are you talking about they even call it like covid labs
00:33:33.840
so he could bring the sanity back to the left the suffering of this pandemic which was more than likely
00:33:43.080
caused by science hold on one second no no no no no no no no now listen listen but what do you what
00:33:52.520
what do you mean but do you mean like so perhaps there's there's a chance that this is created in a
00:33:56.280
lab i'd love to hear novel respiratory coronavirus overtaking wuhan china what do we do oh you know we
00:34:04.280
could ask the wuhan novel respiratory coronavirus lab the disease is the same name as the lab
00:34:13.560
and then they asked those scientists wait a minute you work at the wuhan respiratory
00:34:17.560
coronavirus lab how did this happen and they're like a pangolin kissed a turtle
00:34:24.200
and you're like no i you get the name of your lab if you look at the name show me your business card
00:34:31.560
oh i work at the coronavirus lab in wuhan oh because there's a coronavirus loose in wuhan
00:34:40.520
how did that happen maybe a bat flew into the cloaca of a turkey and now we all have corona
00:34:51.960
what about this what about this listen to this wait a second all right oh my god oh my god
00:34:58.680
there's been an outbreak of chocolatey goodness near hershey pennsylvania what do you think happened
00:35:06.120
like oh i don't know maybe a steam shovel made it with a cocoa bean or it's the chocolate factory
00:35:15.320
maybe that's it that could that could very well be and anthony fauci and francis collins and nih
00:35:20.840
have said like it should definitely be investigated stop with the logic and people and things
00:35:26.120
the name of the disease wait a second wait a second but i it could be possible you could be
00:35:33.240
right it could be possible that they have the lab in wuhan to study the novel coronavirus diseases
00:35:41.240
because of the bat population there i understand it's the only place to find bats austin texas has
00:35:47.240
thousands of them that fly out of a cave every night is there a coronavirus in austin coronavirus no
00:35:54.440
it doesn't seem to be an austin coronavirus yeah and and john stewart's like call out here of like
00:36:02.120
obviously it was the lab leak it has aged so well because now there's a report that the three people
00:36:07.320
with the earliest cases of covid were gain-of-function researchers at the wuhan in november
00:36:12.280
specifically in 2019 bin hu you ping and yon zu so we basically now know it was a lab leak and john
00:36:19.800
stewart called it when the left crap and you could see like how uncomfortable stephen colbert is like
00:36:24.600
when he's doing this this is off script go back to the script um and do you hold on do you what do you
00:36:35.480
think john stewart ran could he be basically yes no he he would clean up he would do incredibly well
00:36:42.040
yeah he would he would catch the center back and he's just so relatable yeah he's he's the ultimate
00:36:48.120
centrist vote and that's what a president needs to win he did a video recently for like apple tv
00:36:55.160
about like pro-child transition like what really whoa okay yeah he's pretty captured by woke but he at
00:37:02.920
least fights back sometimes yeah well i don't know though if he's for youth transition here's the thing is
00:37:09.960
i was i was listening to some people talking about this and they're like you know how you know how
00:37:15.560
come so many centrists were you know voting for the left and a realization that they had was that
00:37:25.480
a lot of parents are seeing just how much at the level of their own local schools
00:37:31.640
youth gender transition is is taking place and they're like sorry you said voting for the left well
00:37:37.720
they would otherwise have voted for the left yeah but then they're like i just don't want my
00:37:42.440
kid to go through youth gender transition so this has gone too far and there aren't enough people who
00:37:47.880
care about trans rights enough to put their kids at risk when they don't think their kids really are
00:37:53.960
trans but are going to be forced essentially to transition through social pressure too and so like
00:37:59.800
it just went too far so i do think that if he was into youth gender transition that would be a step too far
00:38:04.840
because i think that's one of the key things that pushed people to the right aggressively
00:38:11.080
to be clear i am not saying i think it would be a good thing if john stewart was running on the left
00:38:16.200
i think it would be a bad thing because he would be such a good candidate but he is not actually like
00:38:22.600
fully sane he again like the use gender transition stuff which again for people who don't know why we're
00:38:28.760
so against this if you look at the study from 2023 gender discontentedness and non-conforming use what
00:38:34.120
you see is of 11 year olds who uh do not identify with their birth gender over nine out of ten of
00:38:40.280
them when not given gender affirming care end up affirming totally with their birth gender by the age
00:38:46.040
of 23 um so it's just like a bad idea especially when you consider that 50 of people who transition or
00:38:52.680
45 depending on the study you're looking at attempt to unalive themselves so it's it's one of those
00:38:57.720
things where it's like horrifying that anyone could promote this if they have actually looked
00:39:01.640
at the data and i feel like he has i feel like what john stewart does is he looks at the issues
00:39:08.120
that he knows are going to be overturned in the near future and then stakes out on front of that like
00:39:13.160
the wuhan lab leak story and stuff like that and so i think that he's sort of the perfect poison pill to
00:39:19.640
the right right now and to me that scares me about a john stewart candidacy but if i'm just out here
00:39:25.640
giving like honest advice to the left this is what you need to do you need to do somebody
00:39:30.840
who clamps back occasionally written out then dwayne the rock johnson is my drone the rock johnson
00:39:37.720
i don't think john stewart would do better i i think that he could moderate his positions on
00:39:41.960
things and i think he would if he was running he could one and he could come out to be like i was
00:39:46.520
wrong i didn't know about the the w path files i didn't know about this and that like i'm willing
00:39:51.800
because he's the kind of person who has the ability to draw the narrative of changing his
00:39:58.120
mind without looking like a flip-flopper yeah because we have this whole history of him like
00:40:03.800
oh jd vance you can't trust jd vance because he changes his mind when he's presented with new
00:40:08.120
evidence it's like people i think people like that and i'm glad that we've come to a point in
00:40:13.160
in human civilization where we start to respect people for changing their mind when presented with
00:40:17.160
new information wow it only took us two thousand plus years i was taken in by the urban monoculture
00:40:23.880
for a while i believed their bullshit for a while okay yes totally same i just as jd vance did i do not
00:40:30.760
besmirch him for you know if he's a wealthy vc in silicon valley in the you know early 2000s of course
00:40:39.560
yes whoops whoops he made a mistake i made a mistake okay some of you guys realized this
00:40:45.560
shit before i did exactly but i'm out now and so whatever right yeah don't don't hate me for being
00:40:51.000
wrong and and that was one thing that when i was running for office i i got the most um appreciation
00:40:57.400
for was was that i had grown up with one ideology and i saw what was wrong with it and i changed my
00:41:03.320
mind i i wasn't questioned for it i wasn't called a rhino for it i i was i was i mean maybe people hated me
00:41:09.960
behind my back but at least to my face i was given the impression that people appreciated that
00:41:18.360
what i cared about was my community and that i i believed that something was for the best and when
00:41:23.160
proven that it wasn't i changed my mind yeah so next here the other big thing and when people are
00:41:29.720
like how bad has wokeism gotten and how much it's a pushback now because i think that people don't
00:41:34.600
understand the systemic privileges that some people are getting in our society that we really
00:41:39.320
are living in a racist society where some ethnicity groups are treated as having more human dignity than
00:41:44.760
others but the tide is beginning to turn so prominent theoretical physicist laurence m cross spoke about
00:41:51.400
the notorious dei practice he said quote get the dei out of science funding elon exclamation mark
00:41:58.280
end quote in a national post article so we're not seeing mainstream physicists so here's a
00:42:03.000
classics professor jake and i thought that this was a really interesting tweet that i read he said
00:42:07.560
i'm 53 years old the last four years amount to the most repressive totalitarian era i have ever lived
00:42:13.400
through quote if the general atmosphere of fear we live in as a people who want to speak and live
00:42:19.480
freely if all of that change in american society had the fingerprints of a particular leader on it
00:42:26.200
that leader would be fascist end quote and that was from nam durham but it was not a particular
00:42:32.040
it was the left i think what he's talking here is this memetic virus that we've talked about that
00:42:35.960
is wokeism the urban monoculture which the left needs to distance itself from if it's going to win
00:42:40.760
it needs to quarantine it needs to call out and being bigoted which is what it is but he goes on to say
00:42:47.000
it was not a fascist leader but a society-wide culture of totalitarian intolerance that made me watch
00:42:52.280
my words like a hawk for half a decade it was fear of retaliation from the left that made me lay awake at
00:42:58.840
night terrified that a student might have misinterpreted something i said in class
00:43:03.400
and initiated a cancellation campaign against me and this is something we've seen historically if
00:43:07.800
you look at the pogroms against jews and stuff like that they don't know if they've triggered some
00:43:11.160
like oh now they're going to use this to argue against my community oh now they're gonna you know
00:43:15.560
then he goes on to say it was not a fascist leader but a left-wing culture of retribution in
00:43:20.360
the face which tenured faculty and college administrators coward you know in the face of
00:43:26.760
which tenured faculty and college administrators coward wielded by 18 year olds that ended the
00:43:32.440
career of a colleague of mine because she read out loud a word in an anti-racist comic book oh boy
00:43:40.040
a student with a entire college staff was cowards who fear was nonetheless rational actually ended
00:43:48.760
her career for reading an anti-racist comic book it was not a fascist leader but a left-wing
00:43:55.160
culture of fear that generated countless whispers among faculty in the halls of my college
00:44:00.440
and others every professor afraid to tell but their most trusted colleagues about how students had
00:44:06.360
stood up in class and accused them of quote-unquote traumatizing or quote-unquote harming them for
00:44:11.400
teaching basic facts or for failing to teach the subject from the now mandatory ideological
00:44:17.560
perspective of afro-pessimism or teaching material unobjectionable just a few years ago that was now
00:44:24.200
quote-unquote white supremacist so afro-pessimism i had to look this up is the belief that basically all
00:44:29.800
of western civilization should be understood from the perspective of oppressing black people or
00:44:33.880
what that just doesn't sound fun for anyone yeah i personally know artists whose careers
00:44:41.560
and businesses the mob attempted to destroy because they did not post a black square on facebook in
00:44:46.760
2020 i personally know musicians who lost their bands and music career merely for revealing that
00:44:53.080
they were reading a book that had been effectively quote-unquote banned by the left and it's like you can't
00:44:57.320
even read books if you have touched anything that may be a threat to the memetic virus they isolate
00:45:02.920
you they quarantine you the only way to fight back is to quarantine the people who are doing this
00:45:08.600
they need to be treated the way the right has treated racists because they are just as bigoted
00:45:14.680
but not more so honestly because i've talked to the left wokies and i've talked to the rights where is
00:45:19.480
this who like we have quarantined and i'm like if there's an innocent person being victimized here
00:45:24.600
it's much more on the right because a lot of these these people who sometimes get caught up in this
00:45:28.520
are often pretty innocent of a lot of the charges that they're accused of but on the left they're
00:45:33.880
not they they do wish to dehumanize other people they do wish to ruin people's careers like fascists
00:45:39.160
would like you know if you read something like the red scarf girl like the chinese use would during
00:45:44.040
the red revolution and then he goes on to say i know of accomplished leaders in the world and arts
00:45:49.560
and culture who lost their careers because of the statement of solidarity was blm that they wrote
00:45:55.800
was not vociferous enough i know of physicians who lost important positions were subjected to star
00:46:02.200
chamber proceedings and whose words were scrubbed from the internet merely from suggesting the
00:46:08.120
socioeconomic conditions and not the phony construct of quote-unquote implicit bias were responsible for
00:46:14.600
racial health disparities i know of a liberal gay canadian educator who had served children
00:46:20.280
selflessly for decades who was driven to suicide after being derided as a racist in front of an
00:46:27.320
audience of all her peers by a dei trainer in a covet era zoom call and you know this one who's seen
00:46:35.160
this knows this stuff is real they're driving people to suicide they're driving families to kill themselves
00:46:41.400
they are evil in the extreme they need to be treated like people with swastikas tattooed on their
00:46:48.040
foreheads because that's what they are when they spout this stuff when they try to isolate people for
00:46:53.880
this stuff none of this repressiveness this intolerance this insistence that only a single
00:46:59.960
view was acceptable on pain of cancellation along with the fear that it all generated was imposed by a
00:47:05.720
fascist leader it was imposed through the distributed channels of individual agents converging
00:47:11.320
on an ideology and a set of practices to enforce it it was imposed by all the individuals and
00:47:16.360
institutions whose rational self-interested fear made them turn their eyes away allowing it all to
00:47:22.360
happen and tacitly endorsing it and i cannot but include myself in this indictment all of us like
00:47:29.080
peter thrice denying the jesus of our colleagues friends and family in order to save our own skins from the
00:47:36.840
mod by falsifying every last one of our preferences there was an entire class of people who genuinely
00:47:43.640
never felt a moment of fear from their neighbors students colleagues or acquaintances who sincerely
00:47:48.360
never did notice episodes of retribution and cancellation such as i've described here my theory
00:47:53.320
is that these people's own ideology so mirrored that of the dominant social configuration that they
00:47:58.520
simply never experienced a moment of friction and it's not for the most part that they previously
00:48:04.120
arrived at a quote-unquote woke ideology independently and then merely recognized fellow travelers in
00:48:09.560
other wokest rather their minds were such as to instantly and uncritically conform themselves to
00:48:15.400
whatever it was that they were supposed to believe or endorses this week from abolishing slave patrol
00:48:21.640
policing in america to mass graves of indians in canada to human biology having no bearing on a
00:48:27.800
person's sex or gender they were and remain in the grip of a mass delusion this is by and large the
00:48:34.440
same class of people you will see commenting here and telling me that none of this ever happened or that
00:48:39.720
i have fallen for a right-wing lie some of these people will make a faulty inference from this and assume
00:48:45.320
that i am a hardcore right-winger in a classical case of whataboutism fallacy they'll say well what about
00:48:51.480
republicans and they'll accuse me of carrying water for the right wing and supposedly far more repressive
00:48:57.960
of any leftist or democrat than i aspire to be and we all know this is true right when people do not
00:49:04.440
leftists don't get fired from their views from their jobs they don't get fired for their views from
00:49:08.200
their university they don't have to live in fear well i think what you're pointing out though is that
00:49:13.240
they do that nothing's enough well they do it that nothing's enough but they they definitely it is not
00:49:19.000
the right that controls society the left is the fascist faction controlling society right now they
00:49:25.080
are fascist in the truest sense of the word they are a fascist mob that is interested only in upholding
00:49:33.160
its ideological purity spiral but to go continue even dumber they'll say that my supposed experience
00:49:39.240
of intolerance is exactly what bigots should expect if i have views that were impossible to express on
00:49:44.680
campus over the past years that's just as good for entails that my views must have been beyond the
00:49:51.000
pale and no campus is obliged to platform or tolerate nazis and their ilk and here's what i point out with
00:49:57.080
john stewart going against all this because he had the platform to do it you would have been the
00:50:01.080
platform for saying oh we actually do need masks or oh we actually don't need masks at various different
00:50:07.480
times as happened you would have been the platform for saying actually these covered restrictions are
00:50:11.400
hurting minority communities disproportionately as happened to the person who was runner-up to be
00:50:15.320
the ceo at levi's him saying stuff like the lab leak thing had people's careers ended
00:50:22.440
who weren't far enough left we all saw this it's not that they were fighting for truce and justice they
00:50:28.040
were fighting for ideological conformity they were fighting for the march step they were fighting for
00:50:33.160
their north korea-like dictatorship these inferences and accusations are all false i can be angry about
00:50:39.400
left-wing repressiveness and still be plenty alarmed by right-wing repressiveness and indeed i am but
00:50:45.000
the way we have done nothing he's just signaling here i have spoken out on this platform against
00:50:50.040
florida's stop woke act for example against the crushing of pro-palestinian speech on some campuses
00:50:57.080
and just this morning i shared my well-granted fear that trump will end up invoking the insurrection act
00:51:03.080
what that's so pathetic but there is simply no equivalency between the impact on my quote-unquote
00:51:10.200
lived experience and they will deny all of these people's lived experiences of the daily grinding
00:51:14.840
paranoia and fear that the leftist culture of repression has created for me that i have seen it create
00:51:22.520
in countless students and colleagues and my more abstract and theoretical concerns about repressiveness
00:51:28.760
or right that is in any event more local to florida texas etc not nearly as global as a society-wide
00:51:35.720
leftist culture that i describe here and i will not be gaslit and this is the reality that so many
00:51:42.200
people are experiencing and if you as a leftist can't read this and say i need to stop the bigots
00:51:48.280
who have taken control of my culture who have taken control of my party and are using it to advance
00:51:53.480
their agenda in the same way the right-wing party did see our video about why the racist turned on
00:51:57.880
trump why the homophobes turned on trump why the anti-semitic people turned on trump because they
00:52:03.080
all did they all denounced him in this last election cycle they all said he doesn't stand for us anymore
00:52:07.000
they all said anyone who follows me stop voting for him you need to do the same on the left and if you
00:52:12.680
can't do the same you will keep losing and you will become an increasingly irrelevant part of america
00:52:20.360
even if you control the boards at these large companies because nobody's going to buy these video games
00:52:25.320
anymore we're seeing this and these companies will collapse nobody's going to buy your products
00:52:30.280
anymore and we'll get better at organizing and we'll get better at identifying any organization
00:52:35.400
you have your hooks in and here i'd point out we're going to start a website and a company called
00:52:40.840
anti-bigot.com and i want people who are interested in their companies and they go i want you guys to come
00:52:47.000
in like a dei remediation force like sweet anti-sweet baby inc and clear up all of this and then talk to
00:52:53.320
your friends in right-wing media make sure everybody knows so like when harley davidson had a problem
00:52:56.680
they can come to us and we can clear it all up for them clear all this out and then make sure that
00:53:02.280
through the real media channels the channels that people actually watch here i'll put a thing in the
00:53:05.960
top 10 podcasts right now nobody actually watches left-link media anymore they're shouting into a deck of
00:53:09.720
chamber yeah they control quote-unquote the the parts of the old bureaucracy but nobody consumes that nobody
00:53:14.280
plays those games nobody listens to that media as we point out that simone and i individually
00:53:20.840
i guess together our podcast in terms of watch hours per month we get the same amount of watch
00:53:26.760
hours as 14 new york times journalists if you watch our nobody goes to the mainstream media anymore
00:53:31.240
seven for each of us that's what we're worst in terms of our pundancy that's getting insane
00:53:39.000
i don't have anything to add well i mean am i right it's like are you seeing this do you think
00:53:47.400
that like this is what people's lived experiences i think that there's a small and very vocal online
00:53:59.800
group of people that has successfully lived under this delusion that has been reinforced by
00:54:09.400
what we describe as the mainstream media that shares that delusion and lives in that isolated sphere
00:54:14.840
and that the rest of the world and people who are interacting with reality more just don't see it and
00:54:21.240
that's why the left lost and you can see this in the audience numbers as you point out that this
00:54:29.480
group is is very much in an echo chamber and they all kind of consume their own stuff but the rest of
00:54:34.040
the world isn't consuming it at increasingly alarming numbers right the attrition is really high because
00:54:39.880
as they're consuming it they're seeing this is not reflected in my reality this is a great point i want
00:54:46.040
to add here you don't move in the other direction and remember when i predicted trump
00:54:50.040
would win by a large margin in this life cycle and everyone's like you're insane for saying that
00:54:54.120
i know people who've moved from the left to the right in the last election cycle i can think of
00:54:58.040
nobody but dick cheney who has moved from the right to the left that's because yeah the the leftist
00:55:02.440
takes now increasingly don't reflect reality and after a while you have to draw a line and say
00:55:08.760
this no longer represents my understanding and i'm getting the fact that i'm being lied to
00:55:14.840
and gaslit and i don't want in on this anymore is it the left controls people through
00:55:19.160
years of indoctrination through building fear in them and their families and their companies and
00:55:23.720
everything like that all the right needs to do is at one moment oh the right's really not going to take
00:55:28.520
away all my rights oh trump isn't an anti-abortion candidate oh you know like uh he's not going to
00:55:34.840
force me to like breathe he's not going to re-enslave black people he's not going to take away gay
00:55:41.320
rights he's not going to like the moment you realize all of this you're like wait i was
00:55:47.800
brainwashed into attacking somebody who was my greatest ally the money goes to a good cause
00:55:53.560
what good cause a drug a rehabilitation a mind control call we take your babies yeah
00:56:00.040
and i think now you have a reality and an anti-reality party and and actually this has created a really
00:56:05.480
interesting phenomena on the right where the right has moderated on tons of issues because they're
00:56:09.880
no longer interested in promoting any sort of policy or anything like that agenda they're just
00:56:13.400
interested in governing the country as sanely as possible and at the individual level letting
00:56:18.840
people live their lives the way they want to and i think that's what things like jd vance represent and
00:56:23.320
i think that's what people like the new right represent it's this collection of clans all working
00:56:27.480
together and i think that i really like this new right which is only allowed by the leftist delusion
00:56:36.360
on the other side i do too but what you've given me hope about today is that because the left has
00:56:42.760
been so resoundingly destroyed and trounced in this latest election but at least in the u.s there is a
00:56:48.440
chance of rebuilding fresh in a much more moderated and reasonable fashion like devoid of this caricature
00:56:56.920
of the far left that they had previously elevated and i've seen a lot of left-wing influencers say this
00:57:04.840
they go i was actually i found myself relieved in kamala lost by a huge margin well it's a chance to
00:57:11.080
rebuild and i think that there's so they would be great to see that happen and and i think we felt
00:57:17.160
at various times excitement about the prospect of the republican party rebuilding and that's part of the
00:57:23.000
reason i think why the republican party won so resoundingly is that the rebuilding has begun and
00:57:30.200
people like what they're seeing is the new future gop inc wasn't selling now the new right is selling
00:57:36.760
people are excited about it and the left can do something similar obviously in its own way but it
00:57:41.560
can do it so i like that and now we have to make dinner for the kids would you like me to make you
00:57:45.800
those vegetable wontons that you liked me making last week yeah that would be a great dinner i'm not
00:57:52.120
that hungry tonight i'm like a three or four you'll eat a lot more than those because they're they're
00:57:57.000
quite small but i'll make you those would you get the kids now i'm gonna change indy's diaper and
00:58:01.000
then i'll go down and start dinner and you can take a break while i watch them sound good you're
00:58:04.120
very special and i love you and you do so much for this family i love what else are you gonna make me
00:58:12.200
say i'll make you a lot more than those no no i'm just gonna make you you said you wanted three but
00:58:16.840
they're like minuscule three out of ten oh your hunger is a three out of ten okay understood
00:58:23.640
no problem i love you too all right you're gonna get them now right side here i just hit record
00:58:30.920
the that mother that i respect and adore me how most kids sports these days you can't really
00:58:39.080
get kids to just play in them dabbling like you kind of almost have to go professional to be
00:58:45.560
involved even just with soccer aka football that everything sort of gets escalated to a
00:58:51.960
semi-professional level where you have to take them to tournaments and it's a whole family traveling
00:58:55.720
you need to buy all this equipment and i think it's so indicative of the way that we raise kids
00:59:02.200
in developed wealthy nations especially the us where there's this expectation of over investment and
00:59:08.040
because parents have so few kids and kind of feel like they have to spend way too much money on them
00:59:12.760
yeah like well like they're because they keep buying it the industries then keep building out
00:59:19.320
this professionalization which isn't going anywhere but then parents start to think well
00:59:23.240
but if it's built out this way then i guess it's important for getting them to college or something
00:59:27.400
and then i think it's this system that they they buy it so it gets built out more and then because
00:59:33.080
it's built out more they buy more and then it just sort of keeps echo chambering into this completely
00:59:38.120
ridiculous overblown youth sports industry that makes it unsustainable for any parent of a large
00:59:44.440
family to ultimately get their kids into sports because they can't afford to and we won't be doing
00:59:49.480
it with our kids i'll have my kids compete against my brother's kids yeah they've got a big family we've
00:59:54.680
got a big we'll have enough for a sports team on both sides well no i i i honestly really i i just want
01:00:00.600
oh indy we're across the street from an amazing gun and archery range i'm just gonna get our kids
01:00:08.280
super into archery and they can go as far as they want with with john yeah well you have to be above
01:00:13.960
a certain age and i want to start our kids early so okay so archery at starting at like age six i think
01:00:20.920
is their lowest age or something and then just you and obviously they can start younger at our house
01:00:26.200
and then like i think that that's kind of what's like hunting fishing yeah we have a property that
01:00:32.360
could create a good archery range for the kids they can use the monster wall they can just shoot
01:00:35.880
the wall we can you can put targets on it so we should do that as soon as they're all done anyway
01:00:49.720
you have like a weird candy mustache buddy you look very grown up
01:01:19.720
you don't want candy do you want to kick out some pick out some candy for your sister
