Summary

In this episode, we discuss why the Black Lives Matter movement is more than just a protest against the Democratic presidential candidate, Kamala Harris, and why she's not a black woman. We also talk about why the Democratic Party is more racist than ever, and who is really the voice of Black people.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 What's BLM's stance on Kamala Harris?
00:00:01.900 They think the Democrats need to open a primary
00:00:05.120 at the convention and are angry that Kamala Harris
00:00:08.520 had been authoritarianly slot in.
00:00:10.580 Like the actual black people are saying,
00:00:13.140 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:00:17.420 And yet you have this call
00:00:19.700 that has prevented black people from joining.
00:00:22.840 It's white women for Kamala.
00:00:24.100 What does that mean?
00:00:24.900 No black people.
00:00:25.860 We can't have the black people spoiling
00:00:28.720 our fictional black people that are telling us to do this.
00:00:32.200 We are here because BIPOC women have tapped us in
00:00:36.060 as white women to step up, listen
00:00:38.420 and get involved this election season.
00:00:40.800 If you find yourself talking over
00:00:43.540 or speaking for BIPOC individuals
00:00:45.920 or God forbid correcting them, just take a beat.
00:00:49.200 And instead we can put our listening ears on.
00:00:51.820 It brought back to me a feeling of anxiety and rage
00:00:55.500 that I haven't felt for well over 20 years,
00:00:59.920 but that feeling of being trapped
00:01:02.100 and stuck in someone else's tyranny,
00:01:04.900 but that weird cheerful tyranny of,
00:01:07.060 I hope you were paying attention
00:01:08.440 and doing this menial thing that nobody needs to do.
00:01:11.460 I actually love this.
00:01:12.980 The Democrats today are the party of Professor Umbridge.
00:01:16.340 Oh, yes it had Umbridge vibes.
00:01:18.980 Good morning, children.
00:01:26.720 Would you like to know more?
00:01:28.100 Hello, Malcolm.
00:01:29.260 I am very excited to be introducing this episode
00:01:31.600 because I, as a white woman, just watched Delayed Basis.
00:01:35.680 The white women for Kamala Harris Zoom call
00:01:38.720 that broke Zoom, that broke records,
00:01:41.740 that broke glass ceiling.
00:01:42.480 Wait, the entire four hour or whatever call you watched?
00:01:44.880 I watched the whole thing.
00:01:45.980 Well, I'm a white woman.
00:01:47.140 This was a call to action of my people.
00:01:50.980 And I...
00:01:51.780 First of all, can I just like say
00:01:53.200 how insanely racist this is?
00:01:55.200 Imagine if there was like a Trump campaign
00:01:57.160 that was like white women for Trump.
00:01:59.380 Wait, wait, what?
00:02:00.920 That is a...
00:02:02.640 But Democrats have become so, so, so racist
00:02:05.520 in their entire ideology,
00:02:06.740 but they can't see anything racist
00:02:08.580 when it's connected to things that are pro-Democrat.
00:02:11.360 They just ignore it.
00:02:12.720 Well, I don't know.
00:02:15.120 Like, I feel like what a...
00:02:18.060 What a progressive woman would say
00:02:22.560 about a white woman rally for Trump.
00:02:27.300 You know, what do you call a white woman rally for Trump?
00:02:29.780 It would just be a white nationalist rally.
00:02:31.160 Like, that's how they see it.
00:02:32.860 Well, that's really what a frame thing.
00:02:34.080 That's what I've mentioned in the past.
00:02:35.200 There are not, by the statistics,
00:02:36.640 more racists who vote for Trump
00:02:38.320 than who vote for the Democrats.
00:02:39.640 Yeah, don't let mainstream media know that.
00:02:43.720 Actually, this made-up narrative
00:02:45.340 is actually really important
00:02:46.920 to a point I'm going to make right here.
00:02:49.000 Okay.
00:02:49.480 And I think it frames this rally
00:02:51.500 in, like, the most messed-up possible sense.
00:02:55.340 Okay.
00:02:56.880 So, they keep saying things like,
00:03:01.580 you know, BIPOC women have tapped us in,
00:03:04.080 and, like, you know, don't speak over black women.
00:03:07.280 And all of this is, like, about hypothetical black people.
00:03:12.440 So, I think, okay, real black people.
00:03:14.120 From a progressive standpoint,
00:03:16.140 who these days is the voice of black people,
00:03:20.360 and especially black women,
00:03:21.360 because the organization is run by a black woman.
00:03:23.040 It would be BLM, right?
00:03:25.380 So, what is BLM?
00:03:26.420 No one talks about BLM anymore.
00:03:27.980 Have you noticed that?
00:03:29.380 Well, yeah, because what's BLM's stance on Kamala Harris?
00:03:32.580 Oh, what is BLM's stance on Kamala Harris?
00:03:34.920 They think the Democrats need to open a primary
00:03:37.900 at the convention,
00:03:39.620 and they should be choosing a candidate,
00:03:41.880 and that they are incredibly angry
00:03:45.000 that Kamala Harris had been authoritarianly slot in.
00:03:48.760 But even during the BLM-associated riots
00:03:55.260 of the pandemic,
00:03:56.960 she was fundraising for bail release funds.
00:04:01.000 I don't understand why they would be opposed to her.
00:04:03.240 I know her past has been going for a police.
00:04:05.160 No, hold on, no.
00:04:05.960 Simone, you know exactly why you're-
00:04:08.000 She repented.
00:04:08.940 Isn't repenting what the woke movement is all about?
00:04:11.720 No.
00:04:12.720 An inability to repent is what the woke movement is about.
00:04:15.860 So, for people who, like,
00:04:16.760 don't know Kamala Harris's history,
00:04:19.160 I'll give two little incidents here.
00:04:21.940 In one incident,
00:04:23.440 because a lot of people, like, conflate,
00:04:25.020 like, her history,
00:04:25.800 like, Republicans have reduced it to talking points
00:04:27.720 where they mix it up,
00:04:29.300 and they sort of lower the severity of it.
00:04:31.760 Like, I'll talk with a Republican,
00:04:33.440 and they'll say something like,
00:04:34.960 don't you know that she didn't release
00:04:36.800 innocent Black people from prison
00:04:38.780 as, like, prison labor?
00:04:40.640 And I'm like, that didn't happen.
00:04:42.940 You're confusing two different events,
00:04:44.760 and it's actually worse
00:04:45.920 when you take the events on their face.
00:04:47.920 In one event,
00:04:49.480 there was a lab mistake,
00:04:51.400 and she was supposed to notify the lawyers
00:04:53.560 of literally thousands of Black inmates
00:04:56.300 that they were up for potential release.
00:04:59.540 She chose not to
00:05:01.080 because she wanted to secure the endorsement
00:05:03.880 from the police commission
00:05:05.440 to win her next election cycle.
00:05:08.100 She did secure the endorsement.
00:05:09.840 She did win the next election cycle,
00:05:11.360 and then right afterwards,
00:05:12.980 she started letting everyone out.
00:05:14.600 So, she kept them in jail longer
00:05:16.940 to win an election,
00:05:18.000 and then in a separate event,
00:05:19.480 the Supreme Court came and said,
00:05:21.680 the prison conditions in California
00:05:24.180 are becoming dangerously overcrowded,
00:05:26.220 and it's a human rights abuse
00:05:27.720 by the U.S. Constitution.
00:05:29.920 And then a court meeting in California
00:05:32.660 came together,
00:05:33.120 and they're like, yeah,
00:05:33.500 we really need to release people.
00:05:35.500 And so then they went to Kamala Harris' office,
00:05:38.540 and Kamala Harris' office,
00:05:40.160 literally, like,
00:05:40.780 it's not like a subjective thing.
00:05:42.640 They literally said,
00:05:43.620 we cannot release these people
00:05:45.120 because we need them
00:05:46.340 for a prison work program right now.
00:05:48.140 Specifically, it was fire season,
00:05:49.480 and they were being used for fire prevention.
00:05:51.680 The weird thing is,
00:05:53.340 if they had released them and paid them,
00:05:55.340 it would have been cheaper
00:05:56.300 than keeping them in the prison system.
00:05:58.280 Oh, no.
00:05:58.540 But I suppose,
00:05:59.600 would you have any different a thought
00:06:01.380 from someone...
00:06:02.260 That could have been such a win
00:06:03.660 to release prisoners
00:06:04.980 and then give them immediate jobs?
00:06:07.280 But you've got to remember,
00:06:08.160 she's descended from plantation owners.
00:06:10.120 That is her mindset.
00:06:11.320 It's the plantation owner mindset.
00:06:13.200 Wait, they were owners and not...
00:06:15.640 No, no, yeah, sure.
00:06:16.560 Her family owned a plantation in Jamaica.
00:06:19.180 And the plantations in Jamaica
00:06:21.020 were far more brutal
00:06:22.140 than the ones in the U.S.
00:06:23.000 Right, yeah.
00:06:23.680 You would just go and die there.
00:06:25.040 Right.
00:06:25.960 Yeah, they were expected to die.
00:06:27.420 They didn't really care
00:06:28.140 about intergenerational stuff.
00:06:29.980 Kamala Harris is...
00:06:31.560 Like, there is a reason
00:06:32.820 why BLM would be like,
00:06:35.220 okay,
00:06:35.920 like, I know she did
00:06:36.860 some performative stuff for us,
00:06:38.440 but, like,
00:06:39.220 you get who this person is.
00:06:41.320 So I'm going to play a clip
00:06:42.680 for you guys
00:06:43.340 right after knowing
00:06:44.400 that, like,
00:06:44.780 the actual,
00:06:46.060 actual Black people
00:06:47.740 are saying,
00:06:49.080 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:06:53.040 And yet you have this call
00:06:55.120 that has prevented
00:06:56.700 Black people from joining.
00:06:58.580 It's white women for Kamala.
00:06:59.860 What does that mean?
00:07:00.640 No Black people.
00:07:01.620 We can't have the Black people
00:07:02.920 spoiling our fictional Black people
00:07:06.160 that are telling us to do this.
00:07:07.680 We are here
00:07:08.760 because BIPOC women
00:07:10.320 have tapped us in
00:07:11.560 as white women
00:07:12.680 to step up, listen,
00:07:14.180 and get involved
00:07:14.940 this election season.
00:07:16.040 This is a really important time,
00:07:18.520 and we all need to use our voices
00:07:20.080 and influence for the greater good
00:07:21.880 like we are tonight
00:07:22.920 because the toxic feels smaller
00:07:25.240 when we support each other.
00:07:27.180 But don't make it about yourself.
00:07:29.680 As white women,
00:07:30.880 we need to use our privilege
00:07:32.120 to make positive changes.
00:07:34.060 If you find yourself
00:07:35.480 talking over
00:07:36.820 or speaking for BIPOC individuals
00:07:39.220 or, God forbid,
00:07:40.460 correcting them,
00:07:41.580 just take a beat,
00:07:42.660 and instead,
00:07:43.360 we can put our listening ears on.
00:07:44.800 So do learn from
00:07:47.360 and amplify the voices
00:07:48.840 of those who have been
00:07:49.920 historically marginalized
00:07:51.060 and use the privilege you have
00:07:54.040 in order to push
00:07:55.100 for systemic change.
00:07:56.820 As white people,
00:07:58.220 we have a lot to learn
00:07:59.920 and unlearn.
00:08:01.860 So do check your blind spots.
00:08:05.000 You are responsible
00:08:05.700 for your algorithm,
00:08:06.860 believe it or not.
00:08:08.180 Intentionally seek out
00:08:09.500 and share content
00:08:10.560 from BIPOC creators,
00:08:12.580 activists,
00:08:13.100 thought leaders.
00:08:14.660 They should be the leaders
00:08:15.820 of conversations
00:08:16.680 about race and justice
00:08:18.180 and equity.
00:08:19.680 So just whatever you do,
00:08:21.960 don't stay silent
00:08:23.140 on issues of injustice.
00:08:25.380 Big changes can start
00:08:26.420 with just one person
00:08:27.560 who's brave enough
00:08:28.340 to speak up.
00:08:29.600 I know when you see
00:08:30.820 some headlines
00:08:31.500 or someone makes
00:08:32.240 a wild claim,
00:08:33.340 it can be really shocking.
00:08:35.040 But do give yourself
00:08:36.620 permission to pause,
00:08:39.080 take a breath,
00:08:39.680 and do a Google search
00:08:41.100 and ask questions
00:08:42.280 and be critical
00:08:43.360 of the sources.
00:08:44.580 I was a kindergarten teacher
00:08:46.020 and sometimes
00:08:47.240 we would read stories
00:08:48.620 and I know I have
00:08:49.260 some of my former students here
00:08:50.700 and their families.
00:08:51.560 Hi.
00:08:52.480 We would learn
00:08:53.300 about a historical event
00:08:54.460 and I would ask my students,
00:08:56.400 who is missing
00:08:57.060 from this story?
00:08:58.740 This is not a concept
00:09:00.380 or question
00:09:00.940 that I invented,
00:09:01.920 but it's something
00:09:02.460 that I was taught
00:09:03.540 as a way
00:09:04.100 to de-center
00:09:04.980 the Eurocentric
00:09:06.380 and white voices
00:09:07.540 that are often
00:09:08.500 at the forefront
00:09:09.300 of our history books
00:09:10.600 and our media.
00:09:11.600 So there's a few things
00:09:13.360 I want to note
00:09:13.900 about the language here.
00:09:15.420 One is,
00:09:16.340 is when we talk
00:09:17.760 about how progressives
00:09:18.880 have divided this society
00:09:20.180 into a caste system
00:09:21.380 where some people
00:09:22.440 are more deserving
00:09:23.200 of human dignity
00:09:23.940 than other people
00:09:24.700 and part of it
00:09:25.520 is race-based,
00:09:27.660 if you are willing
00:09:28.900 to go along
00:09:29.820 with the urban monoculture,
00:09:30.900 the progressive machine
00:09:32.040 on everything,
00:09:33.440 and you are Black
00:09:35.440 or BIPOC
00:09:36.160 or whatever word
00:09:36.760 they want to use here,
00:09:37.820 right,
00:09:38.460 you gain the ability
00:09:40.060 to speak over other people
00:09:42.300 and demand
00:09:43.700 that they concede
00:09:45.220 to anything
00:09:46.540 you're telling them,
00:09:47.460 no matter how outlandish
00:09:48.620 it is,
00:09:48.980 that's what they're
00:09:49.540 saying here.
00:09:50.700 But what's really interesting
00:09:51.900 is if you are Black,
00:09:53.420 even if you are
00:09:53.900 a popular Black,
00:09:54.640 like the Black Lives Matter people,
00:09:56.120 and you go against them
00:09:57.480 in any way,
00:09:58.220 no matter how much
00:09:58.940 social credit you had
00:09:59.840 with them in the past,
00:10:01.580 immediately you lose
00:10:03.680 your Blackness,
00:10:04.740 your Black card
00:10:05.480 is removed from you,
00:10:06.620 you gain any special status
00:10:07.740 that gave you,
00:10:08.620 you are now a race traitor,
00:10:10.640 as they would say,
00:10:11.820 because they have
00:10:13.180 stolen your racial identity
00:10:16.020 and are now using it
00:10:18.080 in sort of this priestly way,
00:10:19.960 but you can only get
00:10:21.000 the privileges
00:10:21.520 of the priest cast
00:10:22.400 if you do not challenge
00:10:24.000 them on anything.
00:10:25.540 It is macabre
00:10:27.560 and horrible.
00:10:29.100 Essentially,
00:10:29.960 progressives appropriated
00:10:31.640 the Black identity
00:10:32.860 and now deny
00:10:34.740 that identity
00:10:35.840 to real Black people
00:10:38.020 if they do not act
00:10:40.280 like human puppets
00:10:41.760 for what these
00:10:42.720 white progressive women
00:10:44.160 want people to say.
00:10:47.740 So individuals like this
00:10:49.760 essentially
00:10:50.440 are putting their hands
00:10:53.220 up the back
00:10:53.780 of the Black community
00:10:54.780 and attempting
00:10:55.720 to use that community
00:10:56.880 like a puppet
00:10:57.700 and whenever anyone
00:10:59.400 is like,
00:11:00.120 um,
00:11:00.520 well,
00:11:01.180 actually,
00:11:02.400 Kamala Harris
00:11:03.020 has been really,
00:11:03.900 really terrible
00:11:04.500 to the Black community,
00:11:05.700 they're like,
00:11:06.400 oh,
00:11:06.620 I'm sorry,
00:11:07.600 you're not Black anymore.
00:11:09.240 It's not even like
00:11:10.220 we disagree with you.
00:11:11.980 You are no longer
00:11:13.120 one of these people
00:11:13.960 who deserve
00:11:14.540 all of the special
00:11:15.580 status and privileges
00:11:16.840 that she just
00:11:17.740 delineated
00:11:18.480 for Black individuals,
00:11:19.860 i.e.
00:11:20.340 believe them
00:11:21.620 even when
00:11:22.100 what they say
00:11:22.740 goes beyond
00:11:23.700 what you think
00:11:24.460 is reasonable
00:11:26.500 or possible.
00:11:28.620 But also-
00:11:29.340 I think in a very
00:11:29.720 patronizing way,
00:11:31.320 they're saying
00:11:32.340 we know better.
00:11:33.880 So they're,
00:11:34.400 they're overtaking
00:11:35.820 their view
00:11:36.460 or discounting it
00:11:37.540 because they believe
00:11:38.760 that if,
00:11:39.760 if they were to question
00:11:40.960 the nomination
00:11:42.120 and run of Kamala Harris,
00:11:43.940 that the,
00:11:45.340 the Democratic Party's
00:11:46.640 ability to win
00:11:47.520 the presidential seat
00:11:48.700 is compromised.
00:11:49.480 And anything
00:11:50.620 that would contribute
00:11:51.700 to Trump winning
00:11:52.660 is a direct threat
00:11:54.280 to their,
00:11:55.400 their power hierarchy.
00:11:56.580 And we'll say,
00:11:57.660 let's,
00:11:57.960 you know,
00:11:58.120 Black Lives Matter.
00:11:59.460 Well,
00:11:59.560 to protect Black people,
00:12:00.700 we have to make sure
00:12:01.560 that at all costs,
00:12:02.900 Trump can't win.
00:12:04.240 So we can't let
00:12:05.400 Black people do anything
00:12:06.880 that would cause Trump
00:12:08.260 to possibly have
00:12:09.160 higher odds of winning.
00:12:10.400 So anything they say
00:12:11.580 that goes against
00:12:12.560 what we think
00:12:13.340 will cause Kamala Harris
00:12:14.680 to win
00:12:15.040 or the Democratic Party
00:12:15.900 to win
00:12:16.420 has to be
00:12:17.400 completely ignored.
00:12:18.760 But they're literally
00:12:19.400 here saying
00:12:19.760 don't talk over
00:12:20.500 Black people
00:12:21.100 and yet this entire call
00:12:22.580 is talking over Black people.
00:12:23.940 Right, but what's
00:12:24.540 more important,
00:12:25.560 if they had,
00:12:26.380 if they were an AI
00:12:27.000 and we ask the AI
00:12:28.740 questions to sort of
00:12:30.560 see how it sorts
00:12:31.640 philosophical
00:12:32.840 weights of things,
00:12:35.060 they would say
00:12:35.720 that the
00:12:36.960 cultural,
00:12:38.960 legal,
00:12:39.680 legislative,
00:12:40.260 regulatory sanctity
00:12:41.280 of Black people
00:12:42.220 is more important
00:12:43.900 than not talking
00:12:45.080 over
00:12:45.460 Black people.
00:12:46.900 Well,
00:12:47.940 I actually
00:12:48.620 think that
00:12:49.420 you're sort of
00:12:50.860 giving them
00:12:51.200 a little too much
00:12:51.840 credit here.
00:12:52.340 I think that
00:12:52.720 what's really
00:12:53.220 happening
00:12:53.620 is there's
00:12:54.760 multiple groups
00:12:55.720 that are making
00:12:56.280 decisions here.
00:12:57.720 One group
00:12:58.340 is the
00:12:59.260 people who are
00:13:01.280 in the
00:13:02.040 Biden White House
00:13:02.980 right now
00:13:03.560 and want to
00:13:04.440 maintain their
00:13:05.080 jobs and positions
00:13:06.180 of power
00:13:06.720 and they make up
00:13:07.900 the core
00:13:08.440 of the Democratic
00:13:09.160 bureaucracy
00:13:09.640 at the moment
00:13:10.300 and they know
00:13:11.400 that if Kamala
00:13:12.060 versus somebody else
00:13:12.960 wins,
00:13:13.320 they have a much
00:13:13.860 higher chance
00:13:14.440 of keeping all
00:13:15.060 of their positions
00:13:15.660 and everything
00:13:16.020 like that.
00:13:16.760 I mean,
00:13:16.960 if a new
00:13:17.380 Democrat is running,
00:13:18.360 especially one
00:13:19.040 that maybe,
00:13:19.640 you know,
00:13:20.580 has different
00:13:21.100 beliefs than
00:13:21.720 someone like Kamala
00:13:22.560 and is more
00:13:23.240 anti-establishment
00:13:24.160 like a Bernie
00:13:24.720 or something
00:13:25.220 like that,
00:13:25.800 they all lose
00:13:26.320 their jobs,
00:13:26.980 right?
00:13:27.280 So,
00:13:27.980 or a good
00:13:28.620 chunk of them
00:13:29.160 does.
00:13:29.860 So,
00:13:30.120 I also understand
00:13:31.060 their motivation.
00:13:31.980 They need
00:13:32.880 to not have
00:13:33.820 a real primary
00:13:34.640 here.
00:13:35.440 And then you
00:13:35.820 have the big
00:13:36.360 funders and
00:13:37.060 everything like
00:13:37.560 that and the
00:13:38.000 big funders
00:13:38.720 want to control
00:13:39.720 what's going
00:13:40.380 on and Kamala
00:13:41.640 has shown herself
00:13:42.380 as somebody
00:13:42.820 who takes orders
00:13:43.640 from them
00:13:44.160 without much
00:13:45.000 complaint at
00:13:45.620 all.
00:13:46.260 She has
00:13:46.500 actually repeatedly
00:13:47.100 shown herself
00:13:47.520 as a good
00:13:48.000 order taker
00:13:48.660 from the
00:13:49.080 donor class.
00:13:50.140 And so,
00:13:50.400 they don't want
00:13:51.040 somebody like a
00:13:51.660 Bernie,
00:13:51.920 someone who's
00:13:52.400 for the base.
00:13:53.300 As we mentioned,
00:13:54.080 big business
00:13:54.780 moved to the
00:13:55.460 left and
00:13:55.880 intergenerational
00:13:56.680 wealth moved
00:13:57.300 to the left
00:13:57.780 where they used
00:13:58.520 to be right-wing
00:13:59.180 factions.
00:14:00.240 Kamala is sort
00:14:01.060 of the face
00:14:01.880 of those interest
00:14:02.860 groups and has
00:14:03.800 shown herself
00:14:04.280 incredibly loyal
00:14:05.240 to those interest
00:14:05.880 groups.
00:14:06.640 And I think
00:14:07.040 these groups,
00:14:07.860 as much as
00:14:08.420 they fear
00:14:08.860 Trump,
00:14:09.400 they also fear
00:14:10.280 the base
00:14:10.840 because the
00:14:11.660 base removes
00:14:12.640 their power
00:14:13.320 and also goes
00:14:14.580 against most
00:14:15.180 of their interests.
00:14:15.740 They have very
00:14:16.560 little in common
00:14:17.380 with the base's
00:14:18.080 interests.
00:14:18.800 Then you have
00:14:19.340 the type of
00:14:20.420 brainwashed
00:14:22.140 woman on this
00:14:22.840 call.
00:14:23.160 And we'll be
00:14:23.440 going over
00:14:23.840 different quotes
00:14:24.380 from them in
00:14:24.900 this.
00:14:25.520 How wild.
00:14:26.300 These women
00:14:27.780 are just
00:14:29.160 in a cult.
00:14:30.440 And we talk
00:14:30.820 about the
00:14:31.160 woman and her
00:14:31.640 therapist.
00:14:32.760 So just because
00:14:33.480 this is so
00:14:34.140 relevant.
00:14:35.080 At one point,
00:14:36.860 one of the
00:14:37.480 speakers during
00:14:38.240 this call,
00:14:39.060 Glennon Doyle,
00:14:40.220 talks about a
00:14:41.000 conversation that
00:14:42.020 she had with
00:14:42.480 her therapist
00:14:42.980 and she shared
00:14:43.800 her anxiety
00:14:44.580 about being a
00:14:46.100 political organizer
00:14:46.940 in this election
00:14:47.700 and that she was
00:14:48.540 really concerned
00:14:49.540 about the
00:14:51.500 social capital
00:14:52.180 that she was
00:14:52.640 going to burn
00:14:53.040 through.
00:14:54.420 And Malcolm,
00:14:54.920 you can play
00:14:55.340 the clip.
00:14:55.820 I was talking
00:14:56.560 to my therapist
00:14:57.260 this week about
00:14:57.960 this hovering fear
00:14:58.800 of mine and
00:15:00.160 she said,
00:15:00.720 yeah, but what
00:15:02.160 if every single
00:15:03.100 bit of trust
00:15:04.100 and credibility
00:15:05.020 and social
00:15:06.240 capital we
00:15:07.300 have each
00:15:07.840 built was
00:15:09.120 saved up just
00:15:10.480 for this
00:15:11.100 moment?
00:15:12.920 What if for
00:15:13.880 this historic
00:15:15.020 vital moment,
00:15:16.600 for our
00:15:17.000 future, for
00:15:18.180 our sisters,
00:15:18.940 for our
00:15:19.220 children, what
00:15:19.860 if we just
00:15:20.380 spent it all?
00:15:21.520 That's how
00:15:22.000 this goes.
00:15:23.620 Mistakes
00:15:24.060 will be made
00:15:24.740 and feelings
00:15:25.460 will be hurt
00:15:26.060 and I will
00:15:26.760 say out
00:15:27.280 loud that
00:15:27.700 I feel
00:15:28.100 afraid about
00:15:28.720 that because
00:15:30.060 we white
00:15:30.600 women do
00:15:31.460 not yet
00:15:32.100 know how
00:15:33.300 not to
00:15:34.220 turn on
00:15:34.900 each other.
00:15:36.120 I don't
00:15:36.760 know how
00:15:37.140 yet either
00:15:37.620 but this
00:15:39.560 time I'm
00:15:40.040 going to
00:15:40.220 learn.
00:15:42.580 Because listen
00:15:43.380 to me,
00:15:44.080 this moment
00:15:44.800 could be
00:15:45.520 historic in
00:15:46.540 a different
00:15:46.980 way too.
00:15:48.960 We as a
00:15:49.800 group of
00:15:50.180 white women
00:15:50.740 could do
00:15:51.420 this moment
00:15:52.220 and this
00:15:53.080 102 days
00:15:54.480 differently.
00:15:56.220 We could
00:15:56.860 put ourselves
00:15:57.500 out there
00:15:58.100 and we
00:15:58.640 could make
00:15:59.000 mistakes and
00:15:59.800 get scared
00:16:00.580 and disagree
00:16:01.520 and hurt
00:16:02.480 each other's
00:16:02.960 feelings and
00:16:03.620 still stay
00:16:04.380 connected to
00:16:05.140 each other.
00:16:06.900 We could
00:16:07.660 let people
00:16:08.300 be angry
00:16:08.900 with us and
00:16:09.640 disapprove of
00:16:10.520 us and mock
00:16:11.420 us even and
00:16:12.460 not take our
00:16:13.360 ball and go
00:16:13.860 home.
00:16:15.380 We could
00:16:16.160 decide to
00:16:16.820 care more
00:16:17.480 about our
00:16:18.080 children's
00:16:18.740 futures than
00:16:20.220 our own
00:16:20.620 comfort.
00:16:23.000 We could
00:16:23.800 not just
00:16:24.240 post-trust
00:16:25.640 Black women.
00:16:27.080 We could
00:16:27.480 also start
00:16:28.140 doing it.
00:16:29.540 We could
00:16:30.100 recognize that
00:16:31.320 Black women
00:16:32.020 know how to
00:16:33.020 do this and
00:16:33.820 we do not.
00:16:35.640 I gave it to
00:16:36.860 you.
00:16:36.960 I'm playing
00:16:37.740 it right now.
00:16:38.380 She basically
00:16:39.220 says that her
00:16:40.440 therapist says
00:16:41.300 burn it.
00:16:43.220 Her therapist
00:16:43.900 is telling her
00:16:44.880 to pursue a
00:16:46.860 political agenda
00:16:47.700 and it's
00:16:49.420 wild to me
00:16:50.380 after hearing
00:16:51.600 all of your
00:16:52.300 discussion about
00:16:53.800 therapy being a
00:16:55.240 progressive cult
00:16:56.200 and all these
00:16:56.760 other things.
00:16:57.360 I hear you and
00:16:58.820 I agree with you.
00:16:59.420 The incentives
00:16:59.880 are there.
00:17:00.380 I've heard these
00:17:00.880 conversations as
00:17:01.620 well and yet
00:17:02.140 still every time
00:17:03.480 we see more
00:17:05.520 evidence of
00:17:06.200 this and just
00:17:07.220 how egregious
00:17:07.880 it is that
00:17:08.640 literally you
00:17:09.440 have a woman
00:17:09.860 saying I feel
00:17:11.000 really uncomfortable
00:17:11.700 about what I'm
00:17:13.300 doing socially
00:17:13.980 right now with
00:17:14.740 the election
00:17:15.180 politically
00:17:15.580 speaking and a
00:17:17.740 therapist is
00:17:18.200 saying burn
00:17:19.220 your reputation
00:17:20.460 burn your
00:17:21.020 social capital
00:17:21.680 cause a lot
00:17:22.320 of anxiety
00:17:22.840 hurt your
00:17:23.340 friendships
00:17:23.720 because it
00:17:24.740 matters for
00:17:25.360 this election
00:17:25.840 and we have
00:17:26.380 to win.
00:17:27.380 That is so
00:17:28.720 incredible.
00:17:29.420 I told you
00:17:29.940 I tell our
00:17:32.220 audiences I'm
00:17:32.860 like you do
00:17:33.360 not understand
00:17:34.020 the modern
00:17:35.000 therapy movement
00:17:35.800 has become
00:17:36.760 taken over
00:17:37.480 by a cult
00:17:38.220 and this is
00:17:38.940 part of the
00:17:39.340 urban monoculture
00:17:40.000 it's one of
00:17:40.620 their priest
00:17:41.060 cast and it
00:17:42.040 is used to
00:17:42.880 communicate like
00:17:43.980 when you go to
00:17:44.720 therapy basically
00:17:45.520 you are an
00:17:46.460 android and you
00:17:47.480 are allowing
00:17:48.000 somebody to
00:17:48.520 open the
00:17:48.940 back of your
00:17:49.400 head and
00:17:50.360 tinker with
00:17:51.940 all of the
00:17:52.360 parts right
00:17:52.860 like if you
00:17:53.760 were an
00:17:54.040 android you'd
00:17:54.660 pay a lot
00:17:55.300 of attention
00:17:55.760 that that
00:17:56.160 person doesn't
00:17:56.720 have like an
00:17:57.240 ideological
00:17:57.800 motivation and
00:17:59.780 they're not
00:18:00.080 going to
00:18:00.380 rewire you to
00:18:01.820 achieve their
00:18:02.560 ideological ends
00:18:03.700 and yet that is
00:18:05.020 exactly what has
00:18:05.740 happened and you
00:18:06.240 see this it's
00:18:07.380 such a common
00:18:07.960 like if you go
00:18:09.380 online and you
00:18:09.940 watch like the
00:18:10.640 craziest like
00:18:12.160 lefty youtubers
00:18:13.000 there's really
00:18:14.020 almost every time
00:18:14.980 they're in one of
00:18:15.620 two professions they
00:18:16.740 are either a
00:18:17.920 teacher for
00:18:19.540 for secondary or
00:18:20.660 primary school i.e.
00:18:22.080 from kindergarten to
00:18:23.160 high school or
00:18:24.380 they are a
00:18:25.100 therapist like you
00:18:25.900 look at somebody
00:18:26.660 like fundy fridays
00:18:27.920 right like her
00:18:28.800 partner is a
00:18:29.440 therapist oh
00:18:30.540 john yeah yeah
00:18:32.260 he's a social
00:18:32.700 worker therapist
00:18:33.340 so this is it
00:18:36.120 is it is horrifying
00:18:37.000 to me and you
00:18:37.820 really do need to
00:18:38.920 be and i'd also
00:18:40.140 say with husbands
00:18:40.780 we're going to do
00:18:41.280 an episode we
00:18:41.980 haven't done it
00:18:42.320 yet it's like the
00:18:43.480 therapy to divorce
00:18:44.880 pipeline oh
00:18:46.300 yeah yeah we
00:18:46.980 still have to do
00:18:47.420 that oh my gosh
00:18:48.680 like if your wife
00:18:49.760 is like i'm thinking
00:18:50.460 about therapy like
00:18:51.240 you really need to
00:18:51.920 this is not 90
00:18:53.040 therapy this is more
00:18:53.940 like saying i'm
00:18:54.440 thinking about
00:18:54.860 joining scientology
00:18:55.820 every alarm bell
00:18:57.280 should be raised i
00:18:58.440 think also though
00:18:59.200 what glennon doyle
00:19:00.140 this this woman
00:19:00.900 whose therapist
00:19:01.400 told her to burn
00:19:02.660 it all was very
00:19:06.320 indicative of what
00:19:07.720 many progressive
00:19:08.560 women and people
00:19:09.900 are too which is
00:19:11.080 they're doing this
00:19:11.780 because it's the
00:19:12.780 societal norm and
00:19:13.560 they want to be
00:19:14.080 liked she describes
00:19:15.280 at the beginning
00:19:15.880 of her speech how
00:19:17.500 when she first
00:19:18.780 decided to start
00:19:19.820 organizing politically
00:19:20.920 and trying to get
00:19:22.200 people involved and
00:19:23.540 spread the word that
00:19:25.180 she expected to be
00:19:26.400 praised and loved
00:19:28.080 for it and celebrated
00:19:29.300 for it and i think
00:19:30.460 that that's what gets
00:19:31.540 a lot of people into
00:19:32.360 this they see that
00:19:33.500 everyone's rallying
00:19:35.900 around how evil one
00:19:38.040 side is and how good
00:19:39.060 the other side is so
00:19:40.080 that if they start
00:19:40.720 organizing for the
00:19:41.540 good side everyone's
00:19:42.560 going to open their
00:19:43.140 doors when they go
00:19:43.840 door knocking and
00:19:44.520 say oh thank god
00:19:45.680 you're out there i'm
00:19:46.400 so glad and then
00:19:47.820 they actually go out
00:19:48.460 door knocking and
00:19:49.080 people are irritable
00:19:49.760 and mad and whatever
00:19:51.320 just because they're
00:19:52.200 having bad days and
00:19:53.300 it's tough and that
00:19:55.860 that kind of ruins it
00:19:56.860 but then their
00:19:57.180 therapist go out and
00:19:57.900 tell them to do it
00:19:58.460 anyway so i thought
00:19:59.940 that was interesting
00:20:00.420 too because i think
00:20:01.140 that that's another
00:20:03.080 big element of this
00:20:03.960 and everyone in that
00:20:04.960 call felt so they
00:20:07.860 felt either like very
00:20:09.120 thirsty for approval
00:20:10.320 people or they felt
00:20:12.240 like condescending
00:20:14.500 school teachers or
00:20:15.980 mean girls yeah
00:20:16.700 let's play this
00:20:17.220 school teacher clip
00:20:18.000 because this was like
00:20:18.800 insane i was like
00:20:19.880 wow she's like you
00:20:21.160 guys are idiots it's
00:20:22.520 what she thinks of
00:20:23.120 these people thank you
00:20:24.520 shannon did everybody
00:20:26.580 do their homework and
00:20:28.120 write down three things
00:20:30.020 write it down in your
00:20:31.220 notes app jot it down
00:20:32.500 on a piece of paper
00:20:33.260 the three things you
00:20:35.060 are going to do to
00:20:36.460 impact this election
00:20:38.020 oh yeah yeah
00:20:41.520 hearing this was
00:20:43.320 insane it took me
00:20:45.700 it i felt not i'm
00:20:48.320 not gonna just misuse
00:20:49.640 the the word ptsd but
00:20:50.900 it brought back to me
00:20:51.920 a feeling of anxiety
00:20:53.160 and rage that i
00:20:54.840 haven't felt for well
00:20:57.040 over 20 years but
00:20:59.160 that feeling of being
00:21:00.440 trapped and stuck in
00:21:02.180 someone else's tyranny
00:21:03.240 but that weird cheerful
00:21:05.260 tyranny of i hope you
00:21:06.640 were paying attention and
00:21:07.600 doing this menial thing
00:21:08.740 that nobody needed to
00:21:09.700 do i i actually love
00:21:11.300 this the the democrats
00:21:12.780 today are the party of
00:21:14.040 professor umbrage
00:21:14.940 oh yes it had umbrage
00:21:17.360 vibes oh
00:21:18.380 good morning children
00:21:25.220 that's just what i see
00:21:26.500 whenever i see like
00:21:27.240 these these progressive

00:21:30.700 harris is like umbrage

00:21:38.940 misunderstood you
00:21:39.740 professor
00:21:40.440 dim so silly of me but
00:21:41.980 it sounded for a moment
00:21:44.060 as though you were
00:21:45.840 suggesting that the
00:21:46.820 ministry had ordered the
00:21:48.440 attack on this boy
00:21:49.480 every the entire vibe of
00:21:51.360 the call everything they're
00:21:52.400 saying it's like how can
00:21:53.380 we get voldemort elected

00:22:00.300 terrible idea from you

00:22:03.940 of it also felt so much
00:22:06.180 like cope at the
00:22:08.460 beginning of the call
00:22:09.560 one person says all this
00:22:12.280 proves how electable
00:22:13.680 kamala harris is when
00:22:15.280 talking about how many
00:22:16.580 people had joined the
00:22:17.420 call and how much
00:22:19.360 interest there had been
00:22:20.200 and how much funds had
00:22:20.960 been raised and remind

00:22:55.120 shortly after that the same
00:22:56.520 speaker i think one of the
00:22:57.520 organizers said in trying
00:23:00.560 to fundraise because this

00:23:30.420 start to feel our collective
00:23:31.900 power
00:23:32.420 what we're fighting against
00:23:34.820 we're literally fighting
00:23:35.880 against the devil here and
00:23:37.040 i think they're owning it
00:23:38.300 just like we owned
00:23:39.340 deplorables but still we are
00:23:42.560 deplorables there's a bit
00:23:44.320 of a difference when when we
00:23:45.960 don't own deplorables and
00:23:47.480 saying that we are
00:23:48.180 deplorables we are pointing
00:23:49.700 out that they dehumanize their
00:23:51.340 opponents they literally are
00:23:53.840 like yeah let's worship you
00:23:56.800 know pagan gods no but hold
00:23:59.080 on coming literally dehumanize
00:24:01.220 people in the yeah pink when
00:24:03.220 yeah so the the artist pink
00:24:04.780 was literally on her private
00:24:06.120 jet flying back from a show
00:24:07.660 joining this call because she
00:24:09.180 was so amped to join and she
00:24:12.300 says that the other choice
00:24:13.960 clearly referring of course to
00:24:15.300 trump and republicans doesn't
00:24:16.820 feel human and she actually
00:24:18.680 caught herself in saying
00:24:20.380 doesn't feel human that was her
00:24:21.720 correction she started with the
00:24:23.580 other the other choice doesn't
00:24:25.200 or isn't and then she changed
00:24:26.800 doesn't feel human she really
00:24:29.220 meant to say the other choice
00:24:30.380 isn't human i know that we're
00:24:32.760 better than this and i know that
00:24:34.800 kamala is gonna fucking get us
00:24:37.100 there because the other choice is
00:24:41.340 not it doesn't feel human and i'm
00:24:46.800 i'm i'm terrified these are
00:24:50.020 monsters and that's how they think
00:24:52.660 this is where you get things like
00:24:54.320 the bear meme that we've done a
00:24:55.760 video on yeah the other choice
00:24:57.480 isn't human wow they they have
00:24:59.380 been trained these white women
00:25:02.480 unthinking class has been trained
00:25:04.940 to see men as monsters when they
00:25:08.520 say something like i would rather
00:25:10.800 be with a bear in the woods and a
00:25:13.000 random man and you change this to
00:25:15.220 anything else and you're like
00:25:16.120 because i did that in the video i
00:25:17.260 changed it to like would you rather
00:25:19.280 be with a random black man in the
00:25:20.820 woods or a bear black man is scary
00:25:23.500 um with a bear what i've heard about
00:25:26.760 bears they don't always attack you
00:25:28.260 right so maybe a bear probably a bear
00:25:31.340 100 percent of that which is like
00:25:33.620 terrifying to say but definitely a bear
00:25:36.280 some black men are very scary out there
00:25:38.880 a bear even some men are saying bear
00:25:42.560 although we could predict that this
00:25:43.960 man's opinion will be whatever makes
00:25:45.680 women approve of him if i were alone
00:25:47.200 in the woods would you rather me
00:25:49.020 encounter a bear or a black man i feel
00:25:53.400 more like bear i don't know because i
00:25:56.080 feel like i would know what the outcome
00:25:57.840 would be with a bear and you're like
00:25:59.280 whoa like you realize as soon as you are
00:26:03.040 no longer coding things in the
00:26:05.680 progressive way how far off the rails
00:26:08.720 they have gone into bigotry and
00:26:10.660 dehumanization you immediately like wake
00:26:13.320 up you're like like cold water like oh my
00:26:15.260 god they are nazis they are like at
00:26:20.440 very very high level stages of
00:26:23.020 dehumanizing their enemies and we need
00:26:25.740 to fight back against this if we do not
00:26:28.840 want our country to fall now
00:26:30.340 fortunately this is a one generation
00:26:32.480 thing if we can keep it out of the
00:26:34.240 hands of them for this generation they're
00:26:35.740 not having kids they are only converting
00:26:38.020 kids and that cannot replenish their
00:26:40.920 numbers if we can just for 30 years
00:26:44.200 prevent us from descending into a
00:26:45.940 fascist totalitarian state we're fine
00:26:49.100 all right so come on guys just for like
00:26:52.940 the next three election cycles turn out
00:26:54.760 at the polls and then it's over
00:26:56.080 hold fast boys yeah hold fast
00:26:58.820 they've really begun to treat her and the
00:27:16.260 black women who go along with the message
00:27:18.400 obviously not the ones who don't they are
00:27:20.680 worse than dirt to these people as like
00:27:23.000 this weird ethereal cast of people who
00:27:27.040 can't make mistakes and do everything
00:27:29.160 right and you know it's funny because
00:27:31.260 like so many things in my life tonight's
00:27:33.020 call started out as the social media post
00:27:35.820 just a few hours after president biden
00:27:38.940 announced he wasn't running and he was
00:27:41.140 endorsing kamala harris to be the nominee
00:27:43.820 i watched black women instantly mobilize to
00:27:47.660 uplift and support her and it made me wonder
00:27:51.220 whether white woman could and would do the
00:27:54.720 same
00:27:54.980 the magical black woman the magical black
00:27:58.120 woman yeah they really are like magical
00:27:59.660 negro trope i'm not saying that as a
00:28:01.480 slur i'm saying that as a trope from
00:28:02.980 referring to in the recent movie
00:28:04.960 yeah it's it's it's wild to hear and
00:28:09.860 this call more than anything where i have
00:28:11.880 recently you know i go on about oh
00:28:13.760 progressivism is becoming like a cult and
00:28:16.400 i'm like bro it is a cult like if you
00:28:19.940 listen to this language this reminds me of
00:28:22.940 like the scientology leaks where where you
00:28:25.540 had those videos of like a science like i
00:28:27.780 think it was like tom cruise talking to
00:28:29.240 other scientologists like looking insane and
00:28:32.140 like you're like whoa those guys are off
00:28:35.100 their rocker like white women for harris was
00:28:40.180 like the scientology leaks in terms of how
00:28:42.960 crazy off the wall it was and how absolutely
00:28:47.040 brainwashed these people were and how
00:28:49.340 absolutely they were selling out their
00:28:51.320 children's futures and living in a completely
00:28:53.500 delusional world and completely dehumanizing
00:28:56.400 black people
00:28:57.040 something what what about some of these other
00:29:03.180 ones you had here so i reached out to
00:29:05.960 jotaika edie she is the organizer of win with
00:29:08.920 black women and i wanted to get her counsel
00:29:10.720 and she told me that white women did need to come
00:29:14.080 together in community to do the work because our work is very different we are starting
00:29:19.120 at a significant deficit white women in america make up over 40 percent of the electorate
00:29:25.120 we are the nation's largest voting bloc but since the 1950s most of us have voted
00:29:30.320 for republican presidential candidates in all but just two presidential elections despite repeated
00:29:36.620 predictions before every single election that white women might shift toward the democratic
00:29:41.180 presidential candidate it hasn't happened the bad news is that a majority of white women repeatedly
00:29:47.180 vote for republicans because too many of us believe consciously or subconsciously that it is in our
00:29:52.460 best interest to use our privilege and our support systems of white supremacy and the patriarchy
00:29:57.340 to benefit us what confused me yeah is is at one point shannon watts on the call notes that white women in america
00:30:04.540 make up over 40 percent of the electric that they're the large sorry electorate that they are the largest
00:30:09.980 voting bloc and historically they voted republican she says because women have believed that the white patriarchy
00:30:17.820 is their best way to privilege and that now they have the power to discover that the white patriarchy has to be
00:30:25.020 taken down i was surprised to read that women historically have voted republican it's not what i would expect i
00:30:35.340 would expect that they would always vote in the more progressive end of the spectrum because they are the
00:30:39.100 empathetic on average more empathetic gender well i mean remember we've gone through multiple party
00:30:45.580 realignments throughout the history of this country and republicans i mean i think always have
00:30:52.380 been at their core is they are the anti-authoritarian party and women i think generally historically wanted
00:31:01.740 to put the power in the hands of their family right that was the goal to be able to make the decisions
00:31:07.500 for their family that they wanted to make this idea that women are now democratic is only the case
00:31:13.340 if you're talking about single women if you divide society into groups married men singled men married
00:31:20.780 women single women the only one of those four groups that majority votes for harris and not trump is
00:31:28.220 single women and what has moved women into this democratic state is that just many many more of
00:31:35.420 them are single lower rates of marriage interesting and why are why are single women more likely to be
00:31:41.420 pro-democrat is because they want the social services that previously were handled by the family structure
00:31:47.420 you know who cares for you when you're old it's your kids you know who is the person you rely on when
00:31:52.060 you get sick it's your husband but now because they don't have any of that they needed a state to be
00:31:57.100 handling all that for them but i'd also say that just this memetic virus of the urban monoculture
00:32:03.020 historically women were always the more spiritual group they were always the more religious group in
00:32:07.820 american history and when they went away from traditional religions they were caught up much more in these
00:32:14.780 cults than men were and these cults appealed to them in terms of like just total brain hegemony
00:32:22.140 more than they did to men is my read of what's going on there yeah like that makes sense i yeah i still
00:32:31.820 found it quite surprising and i mean hey but this is a meaningful voting block so it matters and that's
00:32:38.220 one of the reasons why i'm so interested in megan dom's unspeakeasy retreats of women obviously it's
00:32:45.100 not all white women but i feel like women as a voting block are often misrepresented online because
00:32:52.540 they're not necessarily the most active online participants and at least normal women neurotypical
00:32:59.420 women and they are a large both consumer and voting block so they their choices matter a lot but
00:33:08.140 it's hard to get what's going on in their minds i guess you can by just going on instagram and seeing
00:33:12.780 what their lives are about but in terms of what they believe it's harder for me to understand the the
00:33:19.980 final point i wanted to make about all this has been really shocking for me is the way that the democratic
00:33:27.100 talking classes have like whiplash shifted between different major talking points recently so when
00:33:34.380 you're going over this with me this morning i found it really notable how quick opinions were to change
00:33:40.540 and i think a lot of it's because the mooring point for people isn't truth or reality it is whatever you
00:33:47.180 have to believe and you see this in the white women for harris call whatever you have to believe that
00:33:53.580 is more likely to reduce the odds that the other side wins so if it looks like harris is running well
00:34:01.180 then she's the best woman ever if it looks like biden is running then he's sharp as a tack if it looks
00:34:07.180 like he just decided to step down well he's our next generation's george washington but that this self
00:34:13.180 censorship and this this intentional manipulation or memory hauling is a product of believing that the
00:34:23.020 alternative that would come from any other belief is too dangerous even if it may be true so i think
00:34:30.620 there's this interesting concept of of dangerous truths and normally that comes in the cons like in
00:34:36.300 the in the context of state-based censorship or totalitarian regime based censorship but in this
00:34:42.940 case it's urban monoculture based censorship so that the call is coming from inside the house it is the
00:34:48.540 memes that run our brain that are telling us you literally can't believe this you don't have to
00:34:53.660 believe this new thing and so seeing it come it's it's a it's an endogenous change that's based on
00:34:59.660 someone's being ruled by this particular culture that's really interesting to watch because normally
00:35:05.820 you expect to see this kind of creepy reality shifting only happening because people are like
00:35:10.460 like someone's gonna shoot me in the head if i don't toe the line well i mean so you the way you
00:35:17.020 said it to me this morning that i found so powerful is you're like it was so weird to have like the
00:35:22.860 entire demographic democratic party being like biden's the best biden is totally mentally stable everything's
00:35:27.980 good blah blah blah to we really need to do something about biden to now of course biden shouldn't have
00:35:34.460 been running and kamala harris is the best candidate ever and we don't need to be holding any
00:35:38.460 the no more thought about this it's so and and before a discussion of kamala being kind of a weak
00:35:44.080 running mate and a liability yeah a lot of people when they were like talking about bringing biden
00:35:48.460 down they were like yeah they're like well who else and this is an opportunity for us to get someone
00:35:51.840 really great there was so much excitement about anyone who wasn't biden harris yeah oh we could we
00:35:58.840 could get something new we could get something new pretending like this never happened i mean it reminds
00:36:03.180 me of what happened during covid where they're like if you wear a mask you're killing people because
00:36:08.420 the masks need to go to doctors yeah and then how dare you not wear a mask you're killing us right
00:36:13.380 now this this whiplash like and i remember at the beginning where they're like well masks aren't even
00:36:19.060 relevant for lay people and they don't even work yeah they don't even work and then it was the exact
00:36:24.440 opposite and it was like what i do you are you like dory from like finding nemo like do you not
00:36:32.160 remember that two weeks ago or like well we need to flatten the curve it's just you know two weeks
00:36:37.760 two months a year and a half it's like what what like we've all just decided to take after
00:36:44.180 our current president biden who who just radically wakes up every morning and has somebody tell him
00:36:50.140 what's happening that day but no this this another thing that really got me is the democrats have been
00:36:55.640 attacking republicans for their disjointed attacks on harris where they're like oh they don't have like
00:37:00.040 a common theme in these attacks which shows that they don't have any real attack and it's like
00:37:03.840 no it's that they're actually human beings with diverse opinions and not like have little radio
00:37:11.720 antennas in their head they get beamed to them whatever the current talking point is and then
00:37:16.600 they all just repeat it like robots like it it right now if you if when i talk about like the memetic
00:37:24.500 virus people may underestimate how literal i'm being with that if you talk about this ultra urban monoculture
00:37:30.400 people these ultra progressives you you watch a call like this it's exactly like those ants that
00:37:35.840 get infected with a fungus and it like eats out all of their brains all of their innards and their
00:37:41.080 entire life just becomes about spreading that fungus they stop caring about anything else they go out
00:37:46.060 there castrate their own children they are just about climbing to the top of a vine or a stick and then
00:37:53.280 having their head split open and the spores spill out into the air because that is all that their lives
00:37:59.960 are for anymore spores from a parasitic fungus called cordyceps have infiltrated their bodies
00:38:07.000 and their minds its infected brain directs this ant upwards those afflicted that are discovered by the
00:38:15.280 workers are quickly taken away and dumped far away from the colony it seems extreme but this is the reason
00:38:22.400 like something out of science fiction the fruiting body of the cordyceps erupts from the ant's head and
00:38:30.160 when finished the deadly spores will burst from its tip the fungus is so virulent it can wipe out whole
00:38:37.500 colonies of ants and it's not just ants that fall victim to this kill hound the more numerous a species
00:38:44.440 becomes the more likely it will be attacked we are fighting a fungally infected brain eaten zombie
00:38:54.020 horde against the forces of ideological and cultural diversity because they represent the antithesis of
00:39:02.060 that and we we need to fight like the lives of our children to depend on it because they really might
00:39:08.140 at this point or you could say i'm overstepping you're always the one who like dial things back
00:39:15.240 you're like malcolm you're being a nutter after watching this call
00:39:18.220 i i wonder if maybe i'm being too too moderating in my analysis did they did they really feel like a
00:39:28.420 cold to you or was that just me it felt it very cold it felt very cold like yes i was a little i was a
00:39:35.200 little creeped out by it just a tiny bit and i love when the progressives try to like say like oh no
00:39:40.820 trump rallies are a cult and i'm like no that's enthusiasm that's genuine human enthusiasm like
00:39:47.840 it's like they've never wackos on both political sides so here i'm gonna come in moderate simone's
00:39:52.980 gonna come in there are wackos on both sides and everyone's an asshole so it's it's choosing if you
00:40:02.460 want the giant douche or i've heard sandwich you disagree with me yeah i i just what is your final
00:40:10.840 takeaway on this it's cold it's a cult i love you simone have a wonderful day you too
00:40:25.000 you
