00:00:00.000
Hello, Simone! I'm excited to be here with you today.
00:00:03.340
Today, we are going to be diving deep into the mind of an individual
00:00:07.420
who some right-wing figures have covered recently for his crazy comments.
00:00:13.480
One of the crazier ones that happened recently is he said that if he transported back to the Pilgrim era,
00:00:22.300
You suddenly wake up in the 17th century on a ship headed for New England.
00:00:25.940
As soon as we landed, I would use the money to bribe the bosun to look the other way while I stole all of the muskets and powder on board.
0.98
00:00:35.260
And then I would march immediately to the nearest indigenous settlement, give the guns out like candy,
0.97
00:00:40.620
and make it my mission in life to murder every single white man, woman, and child on the eastern seaboard of the continent.
0.99
00:00:47.320
that he would kill any white women and children that he found after betraying the pilgrims and
1.00
00:00:55.140
giving away all their guns to indians because apparently this makes sense to him and he's also
0.99
00:00:59.820
gone viral which we'll talk about later in this you know sterilizing himself but with all of this
00:01:04.900
stuff yes i could go over how crazy this guy sounds which is i think we all know but as people
00:01:11.680
who watch our channel i try to bring a unique perspective to what i'm covering so i decided
00:01:16.440
to go through and watch his videos so oh you went down the rabbit hole yes okay and one of his
00:01:25.240
videos which is the one i really want to talk on in this is why the left would win an upcoming civil
00:01:33.540
war um and he basically lays out the plan that his side has for winning an upcoming civil war
00:01:43.220
and really as insane as you would think oh they have a shot
00:01:48.720
so it's something that we need to to talk about we need to engage with and more than just engaging
00:01:58.660
with it the reason why i think it's so important to engage with is i think it makes it clear when
00:02:04.900
the right-wing alliance thinks about the elements of the alliance that are actually important to
00:02:12.500
both its long-term viability and its immediate security on in the moment of like crazy revolution
00:02:20.600
type stuff right it is massively misunderstanding where it should actually be focusing focusing way
00:02:31.720
too much on armed groups of rednecks which he points out realistically aren't particularly
00:02:38.400
relevant if a civil war did break out and he goes through historic civil wars to make this
00:02:45.100
argument no i don't think that that's i i i don't think the way he presents his argument is powerful
00:02:50.140
because i'd be like yeah but the technological context is entirely different now they didn't
00:02:53.560
have like fully automatic weapons back then and stuff right um but the the he does he doesn't
00:03:00.180
notice things that i think a right-wing person would notice so let's go into this and he also
00:03:04.980
goes into how how probable it is okay so broadly his worldview goes like this if you look at
00:03:13.620
historic civil wars what actually ended up determining who won and how well sides were
00:03:20.920
able to sort of field their assets it largely came downstream of the existing bureaucratic
00:03:28.940
and civilizational infrastructure that allowed them to recruit and command troops at scale
00:03:35.820
as well as manage industry at scale um that so if you if you think about something like the
00:03:44.640
revolutionary war or something like this the troops that we had fighting for us were not
00:03:51.080
just you know people who we had raised out of nowhere these were pre-existing military regimens
00:03:57.040
often uh or they had elements of pre-existing military regimens within them if you look at the
00:04:03.060
you know civil war both the south and the north had sort of large-scale economic and sort of
00:04:11.580
civilizational infrastructure that they could call on random rebels have a very hard time doing
00:04:19.740
anything other than just holding land and would they even be able to hold land in an existing
00:04:26.740
context so to give it an understanding of like how he's thinking about a civil war
00:04:30.540
but he was praising mandami for and apparently a lot of leftists see this is a major betrayal
00:04:38.500
and he was saying that this was actually very shrewd immediately burying the hatchet with the
00:04:43.440
nypd as soon as he was elected and he's like look if we want to prevent ice like federal government
00:04:53.280
troops from operating effectively in new york we are going to need the nypd on our side we are
0.51
00:05:01.520
going to need our own thugs with guns to be fighting their thugs with guns oh
00:05:09.820
oh i mean i guess the police need their pensions to be paid and who who controls the pensions so
00:05:20.720
if we're talking about like national versus local control is that kind of what he's thinking about
00:05:27.680
so yeah basically the question is is if society were ever to fall into unrest how much
00:05:36.140
organizational control would leftists have we i mean like when we know the types of institutions
00:05:42.400
that leftists control today leftists control the huge parts of the judicial system and the most
00:05:49.300
economically prosperous parts of the United States, huge parts of the white collar job system
00:05:55.540
in the most industrious parts, you know, technologically industrious parts of the United
00:05:59.160
States. They control governments and the surrounding environments in stuff like cities.
00:06:06.300
So suppose we were having any form of a revolution or something like that. The NYPD is obviously
00:06:11.760
quite pissed at the way leftists have treated them. But you've also got to keep in mind how
00:06:17.040
long they have had woke hiring practices within their organization. So even though they have a
00:06:22.700
bit of a chip on their shoulder compared to other people, you've got to keep in mind their entire
00:06:27.640
architecture around them, right? You know, you've got everybody else in Manhattan, many of whom are
00:06:32.960
quite left-leaning, who could pressure them or make it difficult for them to act independently
00:06:38.980
in the case of any sort of serious split. Now, I'm just giving you guys his perspective. I actually
00:06:45.480
think it's massively wrong but i'm giving you his perspective right and then if i was going to
00:06:51.160
further steel man his perspective beyond what he has said because obviously being a modern leftist
00:06:57.400
he doesn't think ai is relevant but where do you fall on the luddite to accelerationist spectrum
00:07:03.960
uh i'm of two minds in my heart of hearts i think the agricultural revolution was a mistake
00:07:10.920
I think that any society with an agricultural mode of subsistence is necessarily imperial and hierarchical.
00:07:20.560
And I think that basically all of our problems come downstream from that.
00:07:24.960
I am arguing that the core thing of relevance in future battles, even six, seven years out, is going to be automated drone swarms.
00:07:38.460
Well, so far, the federal government is like leaps and bounds ahead of any private or state-based entity I'm aware of.
00:07:47.540
Does that mean the next thing I work on with RFAB is automated drone swarms?
00:07:56.480
I bet I could build automated drone swarms better than the government can.
00:08:05.880
so you can work on that one well so okay it's just a side note if i was going to focus on
00:08:12.260
automated drone swarms how like what would be our arbitrage play um so i'm just trying to think of
00:08:20.220
how you could do something significantly better than the existing systems so i've been watching
00:08:24.220
lots of film of like what's going on in ukraine right now and you have a huge
00:08:31.940
yes our fans will find this tangent interesting i i'm trying to think like do our fans care
00:08:37.980
about uh automated drone swarm technology yes they do yes no anyone who wants to survive in
00:08:43.980
the future and i mean our fans are not suicidal and self-terminating they do they want except
00:08:50.320
for the ones who said some naughty things about israel and i've and i've heard many of them have
00:08:55.180
been thinking about some end of life solutions uh yeah i i i say this of course for masad so that
00:09:05.240
they know i'm on team here okay a hundred percent on team so this speculative discussion into drone
00:09:11.540
design went on way longer than i anticipated so i moved it to the end and you can i guess just
00:09:17.400
skip to it with time stamps if you're desperate to hear me an uninformed person go on forever
00:09:23.380
about what would be an interesting drone design okay i gotta get back to the topic at hand
00:09:27.440
civil war so what actually happens and people can tell me their ideas of how you could make
00:09:35.060
drone technology better i'd be very interested in this so i can steal them because my idea is
00:09:38.580
probably stupid this was just off the top of my head idea but okay so this guy i think he's
0.55
00:09:44.720
fundamentally wrong about what a civil war would look like because he's thinking of a civil war
0.99
00:09:49.160
in the way that rightists think about a civil war so he's looking at the rightist militants fantasy
00:09:55.360
of the armed guerrilla civil war which i do not think is a realistic pathway for a near future
00:10:03.300
american civil war um what is a more likely pathway for a near future american civil war
00:10:09.540
i've said it before but let's let's go through what it would look like if it happened
00:10:14.980
one party gets into power and then the election results either through genuine fraudulence or
00:10:23.180
non-fraudulence says that they lost the next presidential election but they say we didn't
00:10:29.600
lose the presidential election in fact which is what you anticipate the primary means through
00:10:35.380
which this all happens yes and the reason i suspect that this is going to happen is both
00:10:40.720
parties have become razor thin close to doing this multiple times like every election just
00:10:47.940
seems like we're asking for it at this point well yeah it's almost like a pendulum that's swinging
00:10:52.400
but it just keeps swinging farther and farther each time and eventually it's gonna like hit this
00:10:56.480
ding like bell we've hit the civil war bell great or the one party put something in place that is
00:11:04.480
just so transparently cheating in the election system that the other party is just like no we're
00:11:09.680
not going along with this right yeah and obviously it got closer was like the the voter rights act
00:11:15.740
and stuff like this many leftists do not like that they do not get the racial seats that they
00:11:20.900
used to got which were obviously unfair and racist but whatever and then the virginia case when they
00:11:25.940
tried to cancel this getting struck down so they lost all the seats that they thought they were
00:11:29.600
going to get there did you see scott pressler's tweet about it it was lovely he he was he was
00:11:35.000
there he's still making things happen oh he was part of that how did he campaign to the uh i don't
00:11:42.960
know the full backstory i just know he was a part of it he was there and he tweeted a selfie of
00:11:47.060
himself and everyone celebrating it was lovely well that's lovely yeah um you know if they're
00:11:52.640
gonna play the gerrymander game you know let's let's do it right by the way fun thing i don't
00:11:57.640
know if you know this but the actual thing that that triggered the reinvestigation of the jury
00:12:02.800
the system and the court case that ended up causing the strike down of the voter rights act
00:12:08.560
was actually initiated by the biden administration against texas and then the trump administration
00:12:15.560
dropped it but texas said we're not dropping this we're taking this to court
00:12:19.460
they ended up being the case that got it overturned so it was actually a problem
00:12:24.440
initiated by democrats trying to be even overly aggressive with the system they already had
00:12:30.380
okay well interesting what happens if we'll go through each candidate let's suppose the
00:12:42.200
democrats win this next cycle and it's somebody like aoc i think she's actually the most likely
00:12:47.320
to win if i'm gonna be honest uh like i do not think gavin newton would win would aoc believe
00:12:54.180
that she needed to hold on to power if it looked like she lost to somebody she was really afraid
00:12:59.380
of right the answer is yes probably right i can i can totally see her doing something or
00:13:05.320
her supporters doing something to that effect okay so she says i'm not leaving what would be
00:13:11.300
her likely complaint she would say that like either it was too much gerrymandering or there
00:13:16.220
was something suspicious about the vote count or something like that right so what do we have in
00:13:21.800
place that could deal with this first you've got to remember dc is incredibly left-wing
00:13:27.860
are dc cops going to pull her out of the white house right no you would basically need the united
00:13:34.460
states military to attempt to do something this means the united states military somebody who is
00:13:41.200
in the military would have to decide to act against the commander-in-chief would they do this
00:13:47.220
and this is difficult because you've got to keep in mind not everyone in the military is going to
00:13:52.040
go on board with this right like the moment one person does this even though like technically it
00:13:56.920
would be AOC doing the coup, like they're doing a coup, like they're now starting a conflict of
00:14:02.940
some sort. They go to the White House, they attempt to arrest her. Okay, who's defending her?
00:14:08.140
Secret Service, right? Is Secret Service enough in the hands of the Democrats to go along with
00:14:13.420
something like this? Yeah, I think they are at this point, if I'm going to be honest. I still
00:14:18.960
think that the right has enough influence within the military to prevent a Democrat from doing this.
00:14:26.920
successfully it it would be tough but probably okay but let's assume that a rightist did this
00:14:33.480
let's assume trump does this this next cycle okay what happens there i mean the key would be for him
00:14:40.660
and the relevant people in his administration to make sure that they've gotten out of dc before
00:14:44.840
they attempt this if they're in dc if he tries to just stay in the white house that is incredibly
0.99
00:14:51.520
stupid um what he should do is operate something like this with key administrative officials
0.99
00:14:59.720
out of something like one of the presidential whatever retreats or something like this that is
1.00
00:15:05.000
in rural america where they are less likely to get significant pushback you would immediately have
00:15:11.680
a number of leftist cities basically secede to some extent the key to drawing them back in
00:15:21.100
is basically not confronting them with armed conflict. You could essentially just starve
00:15:27.340
them. If you just close off roads into any major city, they would have to capitulate in a very
00:15:32.820
short period of time, and it would be trivially easy to do, which is very different from rural
00:15:38.580
sections of America. To pacify a rural section of America, you really need to basically militarily
00:15:46.920
occupy it to pacify any american city you just need to block a few roads a really very easy roads
00:15:55.260
to block too and and and don't even do it like aggressively just be like look we're looking to
00:16:01.000
negotiate but for now we'll be blocking things off and you really want to lower their power
00:16:05.980
we'll be managing an evacuation of the city right to you know for people who are dealing with power
00:16:11.140
food everything like that because now you're moving people away from like their source of
00:16:15.660
ability to fight back in a situation like this. And this is what really matters, not the control
00:16:23.520
of the institutions, but control of the military. Really, whichever side the military backed when
00:16:29.940
one of these happens, that would be the side that won. And keep in mind that they would win
00:16:33.920
permanently. So like, suppose that AOC or Trump did this. If the military ends up backing the
00:16:40.900
other side the other side is not going to go back to free elections they're going to say that like
00:16:46.080
we can't do free elections anymore yeah fair the moment the conflict comes to a head basically the
00:16:53.480
american republic is over and we enter our imperial age which is why we named our first kid octavian
00:16:58.120
right you know i gotta gotta handle that transition maybe maybe born a generation we'll see when this
00:17:02.180
happens but thoughts simone before i go further this generally makes sense and i didn't know that
00:17:09.380
there were people who were actually thinking through the logistics of this, but, huh, I mean,
00:17:16.180
there are so many complications with interstate trade and supply routes and everything where I
00:17:25.340
just feel like there's so many more levels of vulnerability to, like the power grid that
00:17:30.940
different parties in this conflict could leverage against each other that just didn't exist at the
00:17:37.140
time of the u.s civil war where functionally civil war just isn't really possible in the
00:17:44.860
united states in any sort of full-scale you know city i mean the key is to do it in a way that
0.55
00:17:52.880
doesn't look like a civil war right which is it would look like a chop chas like a sort of this
0.97
00:17:59.600
this is their zone and we're just going to let them pretend that they have it and yeah so you
1.00
00:18:06.440
you like suppose you do this you are trump a number of cities say we're not going along with
00:18:13.020
this just you you you you do your best to not allow violence to break out right you say
00:18:19.120
unless their side is initiating it we if you are not part of america anymore we are blockading the
00:18:26.320
roads into these major urban centers and we are managing an evacuation for the people who don't
00:18:31.800
want to be part of your basically independent project right if you do that and the other key
00:18:39.780
is to work with companies on this right to make it clear to the major companies that there will
00:18:46.440
be some window upon which they can join this project and if they do not join it within x
00:18:54.480
potential window, then they, some form of, of repercussion, like they're, they're, they're
00:19:03.620
taxed in a different way or their assets are withheld or something like that, right? Like
00:19:08.180
basically you just put financial pressure on companies to go along with this. Cause a lot
00:19:11.920
of companies are going to want to reflexively, you know, do their, their sort of signal on this.
00:19:16.500
But the moment you put like international pressure on something like this, the big companies are just
00:19:20.300
going to go along with this. And that really hurts the city's ability to go along with this
00:19:25.340
themselves. So first you do something small where like companies basically just need to signal to
00:19:30.180
you and signal to the world, oh yeah, I'm moving ahead with this new accounting system or whatever,
00:19:35.660
right? And then you go into the second phase, which is to say, if they pay taxes to any of
00:19:42.060
the parts of America that are still in open rebellion, they are then put. So they've already
00:19:46.180
done the costly signaling of being like i'm okay with this and then you start to starve
00:19:52.980
yeah that makes sense now how would the left just do it is it's way harder because they need to
00:20:02.020
power project from cities outwards which is just incredibly difficult to do
00:20:06.780
what if they just did what if like california succeeded you know that would be more feasible
00:20:14.660
california has ports they have more of an independent electricity grid they are a very
00:20:23.080
economically productive still state so ports are incredibly easy to blockade first of all like a
00:20:29.220
civilian port like san francisco port or something like that and with california you really only need
00:20:35.020
to block like two ports if you block the port in san francisco and la like you you they're cooked
00:20:42.440
they can import goods through other ports but if you then block the main arteries into those two
00:20:47.720
areas and there are not that many into like san francisco for example you're literally blocking
00:20:52.820
like four roads yeah i yeah most of california is red remember that like literally there's just a
00:21:06.380
you and you say okay you know you use the seed but like don't use our infrastructure
00:21:11.920
oh you mean even the fact that we defend the seas or something well no we built america built
00:21:20.720
your port infrastructure you are not allowed to use it oh that is what that would be my
00:21:26.740
justification for blockading the sea roots that's fair enough but yeah that's what a that's that is
00:21:35.800
what an american civil war is going to look like the next american civil war it's not going to be
00:21:40.640
fought by random guerrillas it's it's going to be fought by how do you control supply lines into
00:21:46.380
things like cities and how long are people going to throw a fit about this in other words it's it's
00:21:52.860
defined by institutions siding with one aggrieved party following a presidential election that was
00:22:00.860
very contentious and refusing to contribute taxes or enforce laws to the extent that it's a
00:22:10.440
functional civil war. But to what end? I just don't, I can't, in the, with the way that our
00:22:17.760
states run and the way our government runs, I cannot understand why even a very large group
00:22:26.800
of people who believe that an election was a fraud would successfully rebel or attempt to rebel
00:22:33.060
with any expectation of eventual success? I mean, what does eventual success look like?
00:22:38.060
They just think... So we've seen this. There was both... So a lot of people aren't aware,
00:22:42.180
but there was a protest that was about as big as January 6th protest that the left is held just
00:22:45.960
like a month and a half before where the president had to be taken to a secret bunker and they tried
00:22:50.640
to light the White House on fire. Well, I don't remember this at all.
00:22:54.680
because the left didn't report on it they didn't want to report on it they didn't want people to
00:22:58.620
know about it but yeah it was huge if you find photos of it like there's giant like bonfires
00:23:04.400
around the white house and stuff like right in front of the gates and stuff it was it was obviously
00:23:09.580
an extremely dangerous scenario the core difference is that the cia wasn't there to open the gates for
00:23:13.900
people you know but the point being is the other question you have around any sort of a protest
00:23:20.140
like this is the people who are resisting this right like especially if they're violently
00:23:26.360
resisting this would the military or any sort of military forces that you have be comfortable
00:23:33.260
shooting on a crowd of civilians that that often determines like if things go ahead and one of the
00:23:41.500
things that we've repeatedly seen recently in rebellions and stuff like this we saw this in
00:23:47.560
turkey for example is that if your military is drawn from rural or like conservative regions
00:23:58.260
and the protesters are incredibly far lefties like they're going out like the anti-ice protesters
00:24:04.100
looking like actually dangerous militant psychopaths which they often look like i mean
00:24:11.160
we've seen the people who are protesting ice like they're like the hoods that yeah the hoods they
0.73
00:24:15.840
look like a group that has othered themselves from the concept of civilians enough that i do
00:24:22.240
not think that they would actually care to shoot at a crowd which is unfortunate i mean it's leftist
00:24:28.600
trying to feel cool and everything like that but like it's also important when you do protest
00:24:34.360
something like this like suppose it's the leftist who have power when this is happening that you
00:24:38.000
don't go out there in outfits that other you go out there looking like normal civilians yeah that
00:24:45.100
is how you prevent that is how you get the military on your side again right going out there
00:24:50.060
and harassing the military by throwing bricks at them in a hood and hitting them was like that's
00:24:54.920
how you get them to feel like fighting back is on their side i think the lefts have really hurt
00:25:00.400
themselves so the final part of this video i wanted to address but any thoughts before we go
00:25:03.700
further no but i agree with you on that seems poorly thought through but i know they're not
00:25:09.220
exactly thinking from that perspective. Yeah. This guy's not wanting to have kids and leftists
00:25:15.560
not wanting to have kids more broadly. So I'll play the clip here. Earlier this year, I got a
00:25:20.100
vasectomy. When people ask me why I got snipped, I generally kind of gesture vaguely to fascism
00:25:27.280
and climate change and people go, oh yeah, totally understandable. But the truth is that whenever my
00:25:33.620
friends and family members get pregnant and I'm in my early thirties, so that's happening a lot
00:25:37.760
these days, I get a horrible weight in the pit of my stomach. Oftentimes I'm genuinely happy for
00:25:45.160
them. You know, sometimes I can even look them in the eye and say, you'll be a really great father
00:25:49.480
and mean it. But there's another part of me that can't shake the idea that in nine months,
00:25:57.720
another American will come into the world, another ravening cannibal who will spend the next better
0.62
00:26:04.100
part of a century, burning fossil fuels, housing cheeseburgers, and ignoring homeless people at
0.93
00:26:10.360
traffic lights. And you can say, oh, well, I'll bring up my kid to share my values and they won't
00:26:15.340
do those things. And I can respect that, but that's a hell of a gamble, right? I mean, you
00:26:22.580
could take your kid to school every day on your bike, but if every other parent has an SUV,
00:26:29.340
eventually your kid's going to get curious and want to drive a car, right? And then what are
00:26:34.920
you going to do? You know, forbid them? I mean, they're just going to do it anyway. What if my
00:26:38.760
pride and joy grows up to be somebody else's abuser? But the real kicker is that even if my
00:26:46.080
child has a great life, even if they cause no harm to others, they will still suffer. They will still
00:26:54.860
die. It is unavoidable, right? I will be inflicting this fate upon them without their
00:27:02.680
knowledge or consent. To me, the creation of human life is very obviously an incredibly selfish thing
00:27:12.040
to do under most circumstances. And what you really see from this is he's afraid above all
00:27:22.520
else that his kids may have different political beliefs in him and he's like no matter how much
00:27:28.920
i try to brainwash them they might not be vegans you know because he calls all non-vegans cannibals
00:27:33.680
right which yeah of course right like why wouldn't he and what's interesting is the lack of and i
00:27:40.760
noticed this was leftist one of the really interesting things i think on the right that
00:27:45.160
we repeatedly see is even when we have like radical beliefs there is a lot of intellectual
00:27:52.760
effort and this is something you see on our channel and stuff like that establishing why we
00:27:57.620
have the core beliefs we have that inform our downstream beliefs right like why do we have
00:28:04.240
the beliefs we have about the environment right like clearly he thinks that environment is like
00:28:08.380
an existential and immediate threat yet he never goes into why like he doesn't actually
00:28:14.700
investigate this which i'd be very interested to know i'm like okay i've dug into the data on this
00:28:20.260
and it just doesn't seem to be so like what's the counter to this right other than just like
00:28:25.520
i've been told so yeah there's that element the other is so like it's it's it's sort of that
00:28:34.100
there isn't an intellectual backbone to to what they're pushing here right it's just like i've
00:28:39.280
been told that this is a trendy thing like why do you hate white people right like this guy clearly
0.96
00:28:43.480
thinks it's cool to hate white people and stuff like this kill white children all that why does
0.86
00:28:49.200
he feel that this and obviously it is protected from his videos are still doing well he has half
0.99
00:28:53.900
a million subscribers you know he is a popular youtuber right oh absolutely so this this type
00:29:03.060
of content i'd actually say its videos aren't even that bad like when i was watching them they
00:29:07.400
really remind me of contrapoints where and i noticed this we actually had a leftist like trans
00:29:12.040
news team come here recently that we were like interviewing right and it really became clear to
00:29:16.720
me that like we were not able to successfully communicate with them we had perfectly ambiable
00:29:23.180
conversations and they understood and i was like i can't communicate with you because
00:29:26.760
effectively because everything they saw they saw in terms of narratives everything had to have
00:29:32.620
some sort of like, and this is the way he sees things. This is the way philosophy tube sees
00:29:37.680
things. This is the way I see a lot of counterpoints video sees things. The world is a
00:29:42.260
series of narratives in what is true is what is narratively true. So what I mean by this is if
00:29:50.360
we are doing something like having lots of kids, it must be because of either a kink or because
0.97
00:29:58.660
of something that happened in our childhood yeah and i'm like no we're doing it because of the data
00:30:04.340
do you want to look at the data right like you can do something for a reason other than a kink but
0.87
00:30:10.020
like this is just incongruent with because their entire world self and person is structured around
0.99
00:30:17.380
what gives them pleasure you think that's why oh yeah remember i said that like clearly pleasure
00:30:26.340
is not like the core purpose in life right remember he's like well that you know that's
00:30:29.860
for you right you know to this individual pleasure was the core purpose in life and so when they look
00:30:37.300
at why people are acting in a way that seems odd to them like why are we having a lot of kids
0.73
00:30:42.800
it must be because it's arousing to us right it must be some sort of kink scenario which i find
00:30:53.220
very interesting for a couple reasons one is like in case you're wondering
0.97
00:30:58.820
and and to to we have argued before that the only thing that isn't a kink is having kids right like
0.78
00:31:06.540
being turned on by getting somebody pregnant or being impregnated like that's literally what the
0.85
00:31:11.480
whole system is in place for yeah you know the fact that you that you would call that a kink is
0.92
00:31:16.540
bizarre right like you think you think using another human is like an oni hole is the non-kink
0.84
00:31:22.220
and doing sex for the reason sex exists is the kink only one normal version of it yes but this
0.98
00:31:31.720
scenario in terms of like erotic scenarios the idea of impregnation uh breeding kink you could
0.91
00:31:38.840
say that is is something that i personally do find arousing right like it's in my panoply of
0.95
00:31:45.860
like random things that arouse me the idea of this in terms of my life wife and kids absolutely
00:31:56.040
not is it arousing like it it just i was trying to explain this to them i'm like do you understand
00:32:02.560
like having a kid is a giant logistical process that takes months it's not like a sexual fantasy
00:32:09.700
right like people who have this sort of fetish aren't having children there are people who acted
00:32:17.600
out absolutely there are people who will even go on these like facebook groups for sperm donors and
00:32:24.160
actively seek out women who are willing to have sex with them in order to get pregnant and they
00:32:29.920
will fly all around the world they have thousands of kids they would count but like yeah that you
0.94
00:32:34.040
would create a whole new life and be responsible for them and raise them for like a couple minutes
00:32:41.380
of your fetish your arousal but it's not even an effective mechanism for okay i'll word this
00:32:52.700
a different way for people if anyone here is is listening has a beat a submission or dominance
00:33:00.460
arousal pattern right like you get turned on by role-playing a very dominant person or you get
00:33:07.720
turned on by role-playing a very submissive person right do you get turned on when you're a like
00:33:14.780
wage slave if you're turned on by being submissive probably effing not do you get turned on by being
00:33:21.460
a boss or managing a team if you're turned on by being dominant probably not right it's just there's
00:33:29.000
too much other stuff going on in those sorts of roles to actually activate those pathways
00:33:34.000
yes but i actually think that's a really good explanation for this right like
00:33:40.520
but it is what one i mean it it's sad to see that that level of sort of degenerate framing
00:33:48.000
of reality by these individuals but the thing to remember with any sort of civil war with the left
00:33:55.120
and everything like that is we really only need to wait them out at this point their fertility
00:33:59.380
rates are so low they are sterilizing themselves like literally there's these people out there
00:34:06.760
right now who hate you they want you dead they want everything you stand for destroyed
00:34:12.420
and you could be like oh my god like we need to get out all the guns we need to round these people
00:34:17.980
up we need to sterilize them and it's like oh no you don't need to do that and they're like why it's
00:34:22.800
like they literally have vasectomy fans go to like the dnc and offer free vasectomies at this point
00:34:29.300
it's not even a right-wing conspiracy they're handling it but for the same reason that's why
00:34:35.120
i find it so shocking the idea that there would be any form of civil war because i just don't think
00:34:39.700
that ultimately the left has the ability to take that level of organized initiative the left is
00:34:46.960
about degrowth it's about anti-natalism it's about stepping back relinquishing turning back
00:34:53.180
stopping stagnating it's not about organizing and building and you need to organize and build
00:34:57.920
in order to lead a civil war but they have tons of institutions under their control
00:35:02.260
i get that but those institutions are highly dependent on other factors in order to work
00:35:09.820
and being parasitoidal in nature culturally they've already weakened those institutions
00:35:15.900
so this won't work especially when isolated and rebellious they're not sufficient rebellious
00:35:22.760
entities and this is why i think america should conquer europe yeah it's there to be taken yeah
00:35:31.320
we're thinking too small with with greenland you gotta think bigger yeah greenland come on
00:35:37.240
you're thinking so small trump there's more out there some some nice ones to pick off
00:35:43.320
if we went out and we conquered greenland they would do nothing oh we should do a video on
00:35:49.180
whether nato is a bad idea that would be fun to do yeah i like that all right i love you
00:35:55.980
what a day what a day film film film got cruise over all day today and yesterday
00:36:03.240
such a a fun life actually in a way because it feels like we're celebrities but like without
00:36:11.480
like having to be film stars or something but like the news is like regularly interested in
00:36:16.940
like what are they doing today oh but like we don't have to memorize lines or something yeah
00:36:22.280
we don't have to i mean i wouldn't want to be a celebrity in the way that celebrities used to
00:36:26.020
exist i wouldn't want to be a celebrity in the way that kardashians are celebrities or the way
00:36:28.960
that ozzy osbourne is a celebrity we're like it's interesting because we're like celebrities but
00:36:34.980
people care about our political views like the antithesis of you know the historic celebrity
00:36:39.860
where it's like oh we're like okay yeah you would hate if they cared about what you wore
00:36:43.380
or something or who you were dating and you like that they actually care about a substitute
00:36:48.900
why would anybody well they are they are which is interesting because you know there's not uh i mean
00:36:55.000
i don't think there's any political provocateur that gets as much just like raw news coverage as
00:37:00.300
we get not even close like if there's some that are more famous than us like munchess mulbug or
00:37:05.300
scott alexander or something like that but they're they're much more private than us too
00:37:08.960
Nick Fuentes come on he gets more news coverage than us and is a provocateur so I will give you
00:37:17.300
that yeah thank you thank you I try um who else yeah but I mean it's interesting it's interesting
00:37:27.940
to play this this this game with the dying press era but yeah and you saw me in a music video today
00:37:35.560
which made me happy it had like 11 views but still you know we're getting in some of the you
00:37:40.220
know the wider universe of whatever it's called skybrow skybrow videos okay oh what are we doing
00:37:49.360
for dinner we're heating i'm going to be working it out i might do some i was thinking about doing
00:37:56.960
a mixture of some roasted brussels sprouts with butter and some like kosher salt dusting on the
00:38:02.620
top and then also some meat over some maybe like fried rice or something like i just kind of
00:38:10.620
i mean did we freeze yesterday's dinner do we haven't freeze frozen yesterday's but i'm not
00:38:15.440
going to just serve leftovers like to guess yeah you're right you're right yeah so we need to do
00:38:19.980
something new and cool and so i might take out some of our our batch prepped cool cool dishes
00:38:25.600
and zhuzh them off whatever you want rendang is something steve would minka would probably like
00:38:32.720
and that would require a new like coinage of of meat which i do not have no i mean we have one
00:38:40.620
frozen oh we might actually yeah yeah yeah yeah rendang over rice with roasted brussels sprouts
00:38:48.340
aside yeah okay i'll check with them i'll give them some options after seeing what i've batch
00:38:56.220
prepped and then go for it from there okay so anyway the the obvious like what i would think
00:39:04.500
initially is how inexpensive can i get them at scale right but the reality is is that the
00:39:10.640
inexpensive path is either you're just retrofitting existing drones which we're already
00:39:17.080
seeing people do pretty competently in environments like, you know, Iran was doing this pretty well,
00:39:24.020
was just like the lobbed systems, you know, you're getting this out of Russia. So then the
0.92
00:39:28.140
question would be, if I was going to build something, how would I make it meaningfully
00:39:33.280
differentiated from the other systems that are out there right now? And the way I would make it
00:39:39.240
meaningfully different is twofold. First, one of the big problems you have with the drone systems
00:39:47.600
out there right now is they've gotten pretty good at the ones that are designed at taking out tanks,
00:39:51.800
right? To the point where it doesn't even make sense to field tanks in the way that you
00:39:56.100
traditionally would have been fielding tanks in a war. And so that means you have much more
00:40:00.500
personnel movement and much more individual drone movement. So like small things where like just
00:40:05.460
lobbing an explosive isn't necessarily as useful now the idea of like the gun drone these do
00:40:12.820
exist right but the core problem with them is kickback right you you have a flying thing
00:40:20.480
minor difficulty yeah right minor difficulty and two all of the systems that are made to prevent
00:40:27.340
the sort of lobbed drones the explosive drones are also good at these right so if you're in
00:40:32.880
ukraine and you're trying to like find a path through the russians basically you're trying to
00:40:36.660
find like invisible corridors that don't have drone blocking setups around them that sort of
00:40:43.060
block where the drones are going right yeah okay so you got two problems right one is a good
00:40:50.340
kickback the second is the drone defense is it blocks radio signals so how can you get around
00:40:57.080
both of these problems yeah okay so problem number one is what if you had a drone that was
00:41:05.860
actually while it could fly its predominant strategy in terms of like the way it moves and
00:41:14.100
does it thing is landing and locking into ground for something like a more sniper rifle type
00:41:22.060
approach where it's it's got a a a weapon on it that isn't designed to fire it's a mobile firing
00:41:30.520
turret a mobile firing turret but then secondly that it had a a wheel based system as well so it
00:41:39.300
would be really designed to camouflage itself like the idea is is it gets itself in position
00:41:44.060
and it can stay there for a long time basically completely quiet to an enemy so they can reposition
00:41:50.520
there so like suppose you're losing ground in a territory or something like that you could just
00:41:55.460
leave these out the enemy moves their anti-air defense to the other side of them and you can
00:42:01.020
reactivate them and the important thing about the wheel system on them as well is the wheel system
00:42:08.920
plus an ai navigation system would be really good for when they're blocked it basically allows them
00:42:46.460
And the idea is that if you could get it good enough
00:42:51.460
which I think you could with an automated system pretty well,
00:42:56.240
you wouldn't need to worry as much about counter drone systems
00:43:09.740
One of the challenges of it would be uneven terrain.
00:43:13.080
so you probably need some sort of like but if you do take treads it's gonna be too heavy yeah
00:43:20.440
you could probably do some form of like a hovercraft
00:43:23.960
utilizing the same fans that are used to fly it to pump air out the bottom
00:43:32.440
i don't know i would look at kids toys really as a base because they're well that's why i was
00:43:37.240
thinking hovercraft because i had some hovercraft toys as a kid and they're really not that hard to
00:43:42.360
create you just need to create a suction padding at the bottom almost like a styrofoam which can
00:43:47.080
be very lightweight and inexpensive and then you blow up here and terrain what can hovercraft travel
00:43:55.320
on any very rough i mean that's the point of hovercrafts often i'm not i'm really not familiar
00:44:00.360
with hovercraft so basically you're just making it fly but at very low altitude yeah it was less
00:44:07.080
power yeah interesting obviously the challenge then is is is re-powering it how do you handle that
00:44:13.480
i need to think through anyway fun fun concept here
00:44:29.640
We don't have any big pizza, but we can make macaroni and cheese.
