00:00:00.000 as far back as i can remember i always wanted to be
00:00:07.720 blood satellite you're telling me something just before we went live and this had never occurred
00:00:23.660 to me because my oldest is too young for this right now he just had a birthday recently
00:00:28.500 yeah and um nichols my son he's at a certain age where like he's he's old enough and he can kind of
00:00:36.980 make friends but he's not in school yet so he doesn't it's on daycare so he doesn't he's friendly
00:00:43.180 with kids but he doesn't have like friend friends yet and uh so his birthday party you know we're
00:00:50.020 having you and the girls to his birthday party but we're not having any of his other friends
00:00:55.480 Because it's more of a case that I just like the dad
00:00:58.160 And I'm trying to get him to like the other kids
00:01:02.660 And Nichols does not
00:01:04.880 And you had mentioned that your girls 1.00
00:01:08.920 I don't know what to do with this information

00:01:16.640 See, my eldest is in SK
00:01:19.880 And in our family, this has been the first year
00:01:23.620 that we've had the friends birthday parties you know we're like you're in you know the most of the
00:01:29.020 people at the birthday party I mean grandparents aren't all there you've got a lot of friends from
00:01:33.120 school most of the kids they're friends for school there's a lot of them too there's like
00:01:35.900 I think there were nine she had nine or ten kids there and and all their parents but the thing was
00:01:42.860 is you know because you were saying oh man we got all these presents we got too many presents the
00:01:47.400 kids are spoiled yeah well it's one thing you got like aunts and uncles and grandparents and they
00:01:50.640 spoiled them for sure but i was not expecting it from the from the the school kids school kids are

00:03:32.060 I gotta tell you
00:03:34.040 though that unfortunately
00:03:34.760 the other family are not actually
00:03:38.000 Jewish they are Catholic Italians 1.00
00:03:40.220 it doesn't matter just 1.00
00:03:41.640 always be attacking people during purim 0.76
00:03:44.080 always be attacking 0.98
00:03:45.880 never expected that even if they're if they're jewish they're mad if they're not jewish they 0.82
00:03:49.480 don't know why i don't tell you this nobody expects to be attacked during hanukkah correct 0.95
00:03:56.280 except except um palestinians except palestinians jews are so wild they attack people during their 1.00
00:04:03.080 own holidays yeah that's like a gift that they give to each other like sign a bomb and drop it 0.99
00:04:07.320 on a child can you imagine starting a war on saint patrick's day you know what i can though
00:04:13.400 you know what actually depending on biden would have been the guy to start war in saint patrick's
00:04:19.080 day it would be on like bhutan or mongolia or something too it would be like some some weird 0.96
00:04:25.160 beef be under the fucking chicken wing stop where they fucked up his order 0.99
00:04:32.760 well it's like like a like a true fucking catholic like a true white man he would be 1.00
00:04:37.320 attacking his friend he would be attacking the people that love him most on saint patrick's day 0.99
00:04:43.400 the antichrist but just a circling back he'd be bombing northern ireland
00:04:57.220 just such a specific war
00:05:06.480 i love a war that nobody sees coming i love a war
00:05:13.220 i i don't know the last has there been a case of a surprise war everyone talks about a surprise
00:05:19.780 attack yeah everyone talks about a surprise front opening up right has anyone really not seen a war
00:05:26.500 coming yeah yeah it's always telegraphed weeks in advance but no if joe had just in 2023 just
00:05:31.380 started bombing the shit out of northern northern island over saint patty's day weekend that would
00:05:35.760 have just been ah chef's kiss it might have been venezuela trump venezuela i actually didn't i 0.94
00:05:42.720 wasn't you know what if you were watching it though they they were telegraphing that for a
00:05:46.320 while they had whatever the south com or whatever they had ships down there for weeks or months in
00:05:52.140 advance so i don't think anybody really knew that that whole thing with maduro exactly was
00:05:56.380 going to happen but for sure they were telegraphing engagement in venezuela for months
00:06:00.780 the last time there was a war like aha yeah surprise the idea of a child or the parents
00:06:10.280 of a child bringing more than one gift is outrageous to me yeah but also imagine if
00:06:17.140 adults did that to each other because i went to an anyone else's birthday party i know
00:06:23.760 and brought four or five gifts that alone is outrageous be nuts yeah like a fight would start
00:06:33.160 and the thing is gifts now aren't even gifts you know like gifts are like uh they're tokenized in
00:06:39.620 a sense that like i have to get something and so the gift i don't really care if it's something you
00:06:44.540 like or want but it has to be something that reflects well publicly as on me as people see
00:06:50.180 me giving it to you right the only person i know who doesn't do this is my dad my dad is like
00:06:54.820 peak gift giver but every like even i don't do gifts correctly i'm doing the same thing it's
00:06:59.700 like oh shit what are you supposed to get for this type of person like you know it's everything 0.92
00:07:03.760 is like shades of socks or something right but yeah what did you end up grabbing from winners 0.99
00:07:09.200 i need to know this oh shit it was like it was just because winners has if people don't know 0.97
00:07:13.480 winners like we go there all the time it's women love winners oh yeah and they do have deals 0.99
00:07:19.360 sometimes it's not off the back of the truck ship but i think we got like some poly pocket 1.00
00:07:22.600 and like coloring books of a show that she liked just a bunch of random shit because the problem 0.99
00:07:29.000 with winners is that women love it because it's like sort of discount but not a regular clothes 0.74
00:07:35.940 but it's higher higher end stuff at regular person prices basically sometimes the way it works is
00:07:42.820 kind of interesting if you have an interest in uh retail logistics it's like stuff that they
00:07:48.300 couldn't sell in other retailers that they sell at a discount and the type of stuff they can't 0.76
00:07:54.400 sell at other stores tends to be high end like i got that that fucking truffle hot sauce that i got 0.83
00:08:01.680 that i've been just milking for two years because i don't use it on a lot i got there it's a very 0.94
00:08:06.720 niche thing that retails for like 40 dollars yeah it's it's ridiculous ridiculously overpriced a lot
00:08:14.600 of those sauces in our fridge are sauces from winners for that reason like it's like high-end
00:08:18.800 like um what do you call it like artisan stuff that like nobody wants to pay 35 for artisan jam
00:08:26.100 but like i'll pay seven dollars for it at winners so a lot of guys just know winners and i know it's
00:08:32.480 in canada i don't know if it's in the u.s they'll know there's the place their girlfriend or their
00:08:36.360 wife wants to go yeah and of course with that in mind you hate it you don't want to be there
00:08:41.360 yeah but the moment you explain it in a way a dude can understand like the way i just did 0.98
00:08:47.260 all of a sudden i'm walking there looking around like i'm going through a shit museum
00:08:52.360 yeah going this is so interesting this is how you do it i think that opens up a whole new 0.97
00:09:00.400 theater of marketing for like for guys just to like conceptualize it anyway so i cut you off
00:09:08.600 there i was just saying i got a real quick winner story this actually happened today because you 0.72
00:09:11.720 know we do uh like auctions and yard sales and shit wife found in the bottom of a box of other 0.99
00:09:18.320 shit we got for like a dollar at an auction uh like some a phone case or like some random shit 0.98
00:09:23.500 but it still had the winner's price tag on it we don't even know from when it might have been 10 0.98
00:09:26.920 years old she goes into winners she she didn't tell me she's doing this i didn't go by the way 0.99
00:09:32.440 i knew she was doing this so i didn't go in because i hate this shit it makes me uncomfortable 0.99
00:09:36.620 but she did it she went in and she got a fucking gift card for the exchange value of this item 0.99
00:09:42.240 that we again i could have been sitting in somebody's garage for 10 years but still had 0.99
00:09:47.420 the price tag on it if you got the value that those people are used to dealing with shameless
00:09:54.540 women yeah so like she's not exceptional in that regard i was joking where she came out i'm like 0.97
00:10:01.020 they didn't they gave you the money they didn't kick you out they didn't call the police they
00:10:04.040 didn't throw a slipper at your head you were counting on all of these things happening 0.98
00:10:08.280 they'd fucking beat you up bend you in half fold you up into a pretzel and chuck you on the roof 0.99
00:10:14.860 throw you throw you in the dirt in the muck 1.00
00:10:17.840 you're saying no i got free money 0.99
00:10:21.640 and again like a man like a husband or a boyfriend a girlfriend you're extremely frustrated by this
00:10:31.100 yes it all worked out perfectly and i was not involved in fact i didn't want to do it and it
00:10:36.980 worked out perfectly and now i have to live with that yeah i was uh it's a good place also if you
00:10:44.080 want like pillows and things and uh things that women would use for their apartments or houses
00:10:50.500 we're not sponsored by winners by the way but but it's also funny because i was joking with like one 1.00
00:10:56.080 of the ladies i think it was in four sacks chat one of the the girls who runs the base maidens
00:11:01.600 podcast i think the topic was sense someone had mentioned incense and i had made the claim that
00:11:10.700 i wish that was something that white people were into right now only stoners are into incense
00:11:18.160 and i get the association with arabs and indians but just as an isolated thing i don't mind incense
00:11:27.040 or smells nice smells and i thought what the corollary would be scented candles that's a white 0.97
00:11:34.640 people thing white women have that all over the fucking place yeah vanilla etc i mean we should 1.00
00:11:42.020 just be having more of those around and of course the women are heart emoji in my posts 1.00
00:11:49.240 everyone's agreeing me another banger but then and i said you know this is why you got to have 0.99
00:11:57.120 a good woman around i think the benefits outweigh the negatives because you think of how a man lives
00:12:04.060 on his own i know how i was living you got the mattress on the floor a single lamp in the center
00:12:10.560 of the room and just a patch of black mold that you've given a name to you you had a mattress on
00:12:17.700 the floor you owned a single blanket which as i recall was a nightmare before christmas fleece
00:12:22.140 but you didn't use it on the mattress you used it as a blackout for the window that was otherwise
00:12:27.600 curtainless he did stay in my place one time yeah and that was oh was that when we were kids
00:12:34.440 was that actually that was your room when we were kids wasn't it might have been yeah
00:12:39.560 but that's don't laugh that's not that's not laugh no it's cool okay it was based based room
00:12:47.780 it's a hyper masculine way of living i have like a toilet in the middle of the room beside a lamp
00:12:53.820 beside a red lamp that's a power move do they enter the room say hey come on i'm gonna show 0.96
00:12:58.260 you my steam collection and there's a fucking toilet in the floor it's a coldly logical room 0.88
00:13:02.780 it's the room you designed on your first playthrough of the sims it's like like trying 0.99
00:13:09.700 to design a scientific city like i'm gonna put all this thing in this quadrant and this over here
00:13:15.840 and it's a perfectly organized room yes yes and i can just flow between it but it's not like how 1.00
00:13:22.020 a person would live but women are pretty good at living like a person would live because hey 1.00
00:13:28.200 maybe every single cushion surface should have a pillow why not yeah yeah fair you they give a 1.00
00:13:37.020 shit about like to me like you said why not a blanket for current it's just covering a window 0.97
00:13:41.360 it's a window covering right right right but now like oh we need drapes right you got this is the 0.97
00:13:47.640 thing curtains and drapes and like the little tie thingies on the on the drapes it beggars
00:13:54.320 believe what else oh you're gonna hem the drapes so that they are a certain length from from the 0.96
00:14:00.320 credenza wow like this just nobody would ever like we've been played for fools people live like this
00:14:07.280 and they say yes so you want to pay them one year we're paying money to cut the drapes the second
00:14:14.560 year it's oh pooled drapes are in now so they're just spilling out on the floor i i paid i paid to
00:14:20.800 have the drapes cut by buying my wife a nice sewing machine for her birthday so yeah she's
00:14:27.280 she's just she's sewing things now yep yep i i i don't know about that i don't know nothing but i 1.00
00:14:36.560 would call a barber she's she's becoming too powerful i don't know but you gotta reel it 0.99
00:14:40.480 reel it back in a bit because if someone can cut hair they can cut drapes yeah but you gotta sew
00:14:47.040 them but see this is the thing this is guy mode right if they really need to be cut scissors meet
00:14:51.840 drapes done right but no like now you got like frayed fabric and it's not straight you gotta
00:14:56.720 hem it with the sewing machine after why isn't the jagged look cool like why can't i have like
00:15:02.240 jagged toothy drapes these are the questions you know that you need to ask like why is an ashtray
00:15:08.320 not incense i don't know the answer to that it's capitalism or i mean that would be what 0.83
00:15:16.880 you'd say at the dinner party yeah it's capitalism beneath that is jews so it is it is the jews why
00:15:23.600 is an ashtray not incense the jews did this and now i'm wondering because i i've never asked a 0.93
00:15:29.120 barber this but like if if i'm cutting hair do i also know how to sew a scalp can i do minor 0.91
00:15:38.240 head surgery damn you should be able to you're in the mix ask like the choctaw indians that when 0.96
00:15:44.960 they come for your family be like you can cut a scalp but can you sew a scalp that will not be 0.99
00:15:50.320 top of mind at that moment but i will try and remember to ask them like you know funny that 1.00
00:15:58.080 this is happening i've always wanted to ask you the choctaw i always understood you to be a faggot 0.99
00:16:06.720 tribe it's interesting that you're slaughtering me right now um the comanche on the other hand 1.00
00:16:14.720 like the apaches the comanches you'd think them but then they're you know i'm getting run down by 0.74
00:16:21.280 the matey a band a band of savage matey
00:16:28.800 in their mobility scooters
00:16:35.220 what a laughable people my favorite thing to do these days is to find ethnicity and very
00:16:48.760 like sternly say they are not a serious people like that that to me is is so hurtful that's way
00:16:57.560 more that's worse than just saying a slur you're just not a serious people are you yeah yeah yeah
00:17:04.240 no one's no one's used to being talked about like that i remember someone in a chat i was in
00:17:11.520 one of the few canadian chats i'm in they were trying to introduce the idea of brokering a
00:17:18.160 relationship or an ally ship with aboriginals here in canada and it was based on the anecdotal
00:17:24.800 evidence he had of you know a few years ago the aboriginals i know they just hated white people
00:17:31.120 that's how it starts and they said but these days they're they're coming to me and mentioning how
00:17:37.400 worried they are about all these new immigrants the indians and the portuguese and whatever they
00:17:44.760 may be and he's like that that could be an opportunity to you know have a new face of
00:17:49.700 nationalism and i'm trying to be as polite as i can and i said recall that they hated you up until
00:17:57.860 like this year you know i mean i'm like and i really what i was saying was these are not as
00:18:03.880 serious people like you have the the hucksters and the shysters at the top who are like 99 percent
00:18:11.180 white anyway but they're only there to for a shakedown and i'm telling you the rest of them 0.77
00:18:16.340 on every reserve like what can you do with these people i actually don't think they're of any use
00:18:22.060 their numbers alone are pretty thin it's not like it's a mass of people you can tap into
00:18:28.560 there's not a lot of them and they really don't like you and they frame all i mean this is just
00:18:34.080 them going to be framing everything in an anti-colonial narrative of which you are at the 0.85
00:18:38.000 center right you know and so i'm like what's and he said oh that's what the um the laurentians do
00:18:44.560 that's what the liberals do and i said okay well if you want to replace them we have to do what 0.86
00:18:49.680 the laurentians do which is give them all the money they want and also allow them to hate white
00:18:55.880 people that's what they get yeah yeah so what what are we replacing that with because i don't think 0.52
00:19:01.620 you're going to get them away from hating white people or at least no centering that in their
00:19:07.140 their political project it's such a weird thing because the first nations first of all it's
00:19:12.820 important to point out that like it's only a minority of first nations that live on reserves
00:19:16.460 right like the majority of them are fully integrated and you probably you know a portuguese
00:19:20.960 guy who thinks portuguese but he's actually fucking first nations and he just never mentioned
00:19:24.400 anything because that's not his identity there's a lot of them right uh but the ones that do live 0.93
00:19:30.320 on the reserve like you said it's like they hate us but we're just giving them all this money it's
00:19:34.860 pretty the solution to this is pretty simple just stop paying them and also they have very little
00:19:39.380 political power again you're talking about the the people that live on those reserves they have 0.97
00:19:43.040 no fucking power they have no say nobody gives a fuck what they think it's the leaders of their 1.00
00:19:46.900 bands the shysters the hucksters who are talking to parliament and pulling all these fucking scams 1.00
00:19:52.820 it's those small handful of individuals who are the actual problem the ones on the reserve i mean 1.00
00:19:58.500 maybe they're idiots they're hate whites they're they're tragic or whatever who cares they don't 1.00
00:20:02.720 have any power you like no nobody listens to them their own people don't even listen to them 1.00
00:20:06.620 and then again the what like the ones that are actually integrated into the larger canadian
00:20:10.040 society unless they're homeless addicts which is a fair you know few um yeah speaking of
00:20:16.540 aboriginals i had just come across this week there was a report by the rcmp uh called the
00:20:25.720 native extremism program and they've been surveilling uh various indigenous leaders
00:20:31.180 as they call them yeah have you heard about this i read i fort made a post about it and i
00:20:36.420 briefly. I skimmed it. I skimmed it. Rocked by resistance in the 1970s, the Canadian government
00:20:43.320 responded. This didn't look like just monitoring for potential violent threats. This was a
00:20:49.640 counterinsurgency program. Revealed in newly declassified, self-styled racial intelligence 0.54
00:20:55.100 files, this is how the RCMP Security Service spied on Indigenous movements. Prominent subjects
00:21:01.540 included future national chiefs like David Ahenecu, Noel Starblanket, George Erasmus and Phil Fontaine.
00:21:10.100 A lot of these people were household names and it's fascinating to see that they were also
00:21:15.620 you know regularly spied on.
00:21:21.140 George Manuel wasn't a militant but he wasn't a typical politician either.
00:21:25.380 when you find 90 of our indian people in canada who are in welfare people who are starving in a
00:21:38.380 very rich country in canada is to me is a form of subtle genocide yeah i was looking at right now
00:21:47.680 like i'm seeing a lot of the um liberals and the ndp who are decrying that they were even doing
00:21:53.920 this because they're saying how dare you surveil these indigenous leaders with wiretaps informants
00:22:00.960 infiltrations arrest and everything of that nature but uh yeah they're finding just corruption all
00:22:07.120 the way down in this place it's all that's why when you're dealing with these people are they
00:22:12.960 even good at marshalling for their own interests the only thing they're very good at is a relatively
00:22:18.960 small amount of them showing up to blockade a highway to protest a pipeline right and committing
00:22:25.880 sort of various but limited direct actions in that interest but i'm like other than that like
00:22:32.760 they're not even very good at collectivizing for their own interests what are they going to do
00:22:36.120 how are we going to what can we use them for the ones that like i'm saying the ones that are there
00:22:42.320 that are actually interacting with larger society don't represent the rest of them that we seem to
00:22:47.240 be talking about when we say them in quotes right like they're not there which is to say they're not 0.96
00:22:51.840 a fucking people they're just pretending to be a people because that's the language that we use 0.82
00:22:55.940 when we're distributing money so yeah and also we we don't want to celebrate the rcmp too much 1.00
00:23:02.680 around here i probably we're probably going to get inundated with like they you know it's good
00:23:08.220 that they are wiretapping these people i'm like no well they'll be wiretapping us tomorrow i'm sure
00:23:13.280 Yeah. I wanted to have a couple things to get to before we get to anything that anyone's going to care about.
00:23:22.660 I wanted to update you if you haven't heard about this and why would you the latest twisted development of what the white collar race are dealing with right now. 0.81
00:23:38.440 i've noticed something while in job postings and becoming more and more apparent as we keep
00:23:46.340 applying for jobs and i don't know how long this has been going on but i haven't really seen it
00:23:50.780 before like over the past year or so it's the fractional executive and they're listing jobs 0.83
00:23:58.580 as like fractional executive like what the fuck does that sound like well it is what it sounds
00:24:03.580 like um it's like they want an executive like a c-suite executive someone with experience 0.89
00:24:11.020 director level vp level something like that but they say well here's what we do we just want to
00:24:18.140 contract you which i never really seen before because usually at a vp level director level
00:24:24.220 you're just offered a job and you're offered a job with some sort of stability benefits maybe it's
00:24:31.500 a commission bonus this at this level this is where bonuses start to matter you know this is
00:24:36.460 where you get into like six figures and things like that and i'm seeing more companies they're
00:24:41.900 not even willing to offer those jobs they're trying to be like well it's just going to be
00:24:46.700 in a contract basis and we're just gonna pay you like as a contractor would accept
00:24:53.340 as i'm sure you're aware of like if you give someone a full-time job you can pay them
00:25:00.700 less of a salary but build in things like benefits and the stability is part of it
00:25:07.100 meaning that if i if i go into this as a contractor i'm going to be charging you more
00:25:12.300 because we're both under the the agreement that this is short term but you're paying for to get
00:25:18.380 something done fast and you know that's there there's no guarantee there's no stability i'm
00:25:25.500 only as good as the last thing that i do for you there's no room for failure or you know
00:25:31.500 miscommunication everything is more strenuous and stressful and so usually people charge more
00:25:38.380 that's just what it is um but i'm seeing neither of those things i think they want to pay you less
00:25:45.660 and then it's it's people they can't afford to bring someone in it's it's you're seeing the
00:25:51.420 a gigification of like higher level vp and director stuff that what seems obvious to me
00:25:59.080 about that is it's a tacit admission that executive rules are totally decoupled from
00:26:05.840 the function that they used to serve at a firm like it used to be that executive people in
00:26:10.780 executive roles were deeply enmeshed in the company they were committed to a certain project
00:26:16.960 or to a certain operation within the company.
00:26:20.560 And that over time, these roles have essentially become a token
00:26:23.960 that the board can trade back and forth in a kind of corporate power politics 0.99
00:26:29.020 that bears no relation to what goes on at the actual fucking company. 0.96
00:26:33.400 It's just, and you can see that with executive turnover, right? 0.97
00:26:36.620 You have this guy's at this firm and then two years later he's at this firm 0.95
00:26:38.940 and none of it fucking mattered. 0.87
00:26:41.100 And of course, you want to make that fungible during a recession, right? 0.97
00:26:44.560 because you can't afford to play with these tokens you know wholesale maybe we got to split
00:26:48.820 them we're going to do half to this guy and half to this guy and see where the you know whether it
00:26:53.100 lands on black or red i i that actually makes sense to me it's perverse and it's corrupt and
00:26:59.120 horrible but it actually at least it's honest we you know we we know you've been doing this for 0.95
00:27:03.300 decades now you're at least being honest with it the executive don't fucking do anything and you 0.55
00:27:07.940 can actually break them up into pieces and hand those rolls out and give them their give them a 0.97
00:27:12.160 little slice of the pie we know they're not doing any fucking work and their decisions have no 0.95
00:27:16.400 bearing on the success of the company can you imagine having a part-time head of engineering 0.92
00:27:20.420 can you having imagine having a part-time head of new product at an actual the crazy thing is
00:27:25.920 you've seen that at the ceo level that's my point is that is that these these c-suite executives
00:27:31.120 no longer like if you have a part-time c-suite executive a part-time ceo you don't have a ceo
00:27:37.720 i'm sorry like how you can't have a ceo or sorry a good ceo well that's the thing isn't involved
00:27:43.940 you see these companies and they're not scam startup companies but you'll be on linkedin
00:27:48.980 you'll be on whatever the job board is but let's use linkedin because that's the biggest one 0.99
00:27:53.120 and the most reputable and you'll see people hiring for a ceo how the fuck are you just 0.75
00:27:58.680 hiring a ceo on a job board that's what headhunters are for so i i've already i've already 1.00
00:28:04.900 accepted that bullshit but yeah that i mean it is bullshit it is insane that you would 0.99
00:28:11.120 just be putting that out there like hey you know we're looking for a new leader 1.00
00:28:15.220 we're looking for a new person to just run everything run everything so like how does
00:28:21.540 this company exist who made the company like who made the company usually the ceo is someone
00:28:26.240 well who built it but like you don't have it so the guy no so the guy who built i've seen it look
00:28:31.360 the company no no i i've seen i've seen it happen yeah but it's such a strange thing to say we're
00:28:36.560 like it's not okay because you would think that if this company as a is of sufficient size you
00:28:41.600 could pull the ceo from within as you're saying but the idea is like you have to hire out because
00:28:46.420 no one there's no one at even the highest levels of organization that can fill that role which is
00:28:52.120 strange there's no companies that i and i'm not the guy to ask but i mean in my limited experience
00:28:57.780 there's no companies i've seen where this has happened where they're successful unless they're
00:29:02.040 just sucking on that government debt spigot but most of the time like i was going to say the
00:29:07.400 company that my wife worked for this is exactly what happened with them the original owner 0.93
00:29:11.580 threw a bunch of bad decisions got bought out and then the board just came in with a series like
00:29:16.580 every year it's a new ceo and every year everything just gets fucking worse and like and having you
00:29:21.580 know what having a new ceo every year or every two years is not that different from just having 0.95
00:29:26.820 three part-time CEOs sharing the load it's retarded regardless those guys are taking their bonuses 0.88
00:29:32.600 while your best staff are being furloughed and equipment isn't being maintained because nobody 0.97
00:29:37.420 actually is at the fucking wheel man yeah and I've told these stories before so I don't need to bore 0.91
00:29:42.100 people with them now but I've seen this in action where after you spend a certain amount of time in 0.98
00:29:47.900 the industry I guess your resume kind of speaks for itself and you can get headhunted and then
00:29:53.940 you can kind of piss away a year not doing anything at a company but then the company won't
00:29:59.700 fire you because at that level looks bad if they fire you yeah like a firing on a resume you have
00:30:06.020 to answer for but if you're a ceo or something like everyone's always moving on yeah everyone's
00:30:11.060 always new career challenges so it looks consensual every single time so they just bounce around from
00:30:17.060 job to job and everyone's lying on their resume they're saying yeah i was there for two years
00:30:21.140 when they were there for one year and then you know there there's a grift element to everything
00:30:26.580 i can hear sean wyland in the back of my head right now is talking about how this is
00:30:31.540 the financialization of tokenization or something but i'm like but to your early point i'm like
00:30:37.860 i i do there's a there's a reckoning i guess we can call that that's occurring where yeah
00:30:44.260 the executive class has to can like can you charge hourly for what you do you know like if you if i
00:30:51.780 had to pay you a con i would say that they're charging because the the reason that they're
00:30:56.660 offering these jobs is because they admit they need someone to do this they don't have someone
00:31:00.500 that can do this but they're not charging enough which means they kind of devalue it i'm like well
00:31:04.900 then you're just going to get bad talent there are good executives out there however i will say
00:31:08.980 in my realm of marketing half of these people are hacks half of these people can't charge hourly
00:31:17.700 or contract for what they do and it's that half that makes it harder for someone like me because
00:31:22.980 i did this before during covid i contracted with other agencies and they would just draw me in
00:31:28.920 because it turned out their creative director didn't know how to put pen to paper to come up 0.98
00:31:34.080 with a single fucking idea which is insane yeah right veterans that don't know how to 0.98
00:31:40.200 they've never opened up an adobe creative suite product they don't know how to like draft a 0.99
00:31:46.500 mock-up of anything so they bring me in to actually to to do strategy because the lead
00:31:53.040 doesn't know how to do strategy that in my experience is typical with the exception of
00:31:58.000 executives who are the ones who are executives who are also founders but with the exception of
00:32:03.080 founders that's been my experience in in in in design and furniture and architecture it's the 0.99
00:32:09.560 same shit nobody has any fucking clue what they're talking about everybody in the room you know has 0.99
00:32:15.240 their foot in their ass and they're all paid 10 times as much as you and you're there to just 1.00
00:32:20.020 solve it like i don't know it's feudalism i don't i don't like it this is my wife the other day was 0.99
00:32:24.840 saying that she's beginning to suffer from imposter syndrome and as i often do i said you 0.95
00:32:32.200 bitch listen it's good that you're feeling that because it means you're intelligent and empathetic 0.98
00:32:52.500 and blah blah blah but i'm like you have to understand everybody's an imposter yeah i'm not 0.99
00:32:58.640 saying that everyone has imposter syndrome no everyone everyone is an imposter they are lying 0.99
00:33:04.120 and then there's that line that fucking feminists say which is that grant me the strength to have 1.00
00:33:12.020 the confidence of a mediocre white man and i'd say that's so divorce in reality because that's 1.00
00:33:17.340 all of you you have the confidence the only people that are pissed off about imposter syndrome 0.98
00:33:23.300 are white guys because we're aware that everyone else is imposter and we don't want to be this way 0.83
00:33:29.200 we want a cleansing fire we want a great cold rain to wash all this away and then recouple 1.00
00:33:37.760 fucking labor value to what you're paying i'll tell you what we want we want to get rid of 0.96
00:33:43.260 imposter syndrome we want to replace it with n poster syndrome and poster syndrome he says 0.99
00:33:49.020 ladies and gentlemen what he had said
00:33:50.860 was end
00:33:54.880 poster syndrome that is a
00:33:56.800 wonderful statement
00:33:59.040 so I'm just I'm
00:34:02.140 I can't laugh I need to
00:34:04.680 take a knee right now
00:34:07.540 one of my favorite
00:34:12.860 things to do on X
00:34:15.000 is to remind people that
00:34:16.920 George Floyd was real
00:34:18.540 where um someone i think at the un right it's one of these united nations posts
00:34:27.700 they're saying that every every job is a woman's job every job is a woman's job every job is owned
00:34:33.580 and just pasting it for as long as the character limit will apply and then someone said what about
00:34:40.940 blow jobs what about hand jobs what about making sandwiches and then i'm like what about floyd jobs
00:34:48.140 i'm just putting it out there that's yeah what about george floyd when they say like all men 0.50
00:34:55.640 sabrina carpenter one of these popettes that i don't even understand because she is 1.00
00:35:03.440 just a wretched bitch yeah she's oddly proportioned she's got dwarf proportions 1.00
00:35:11.060 but she's not that short you see what i'm saying like she's got broad shoulders 1.00
00:35:14.380 and a stumpy neck 1.00
00:35:16.680 and her legs are 1.00
00:35:18.720 too high, they connect right to her 1.00
00:35:20.880 fucking intestines 1.00
00:35:22.080 it's like they retooled the Puerto Rican factory 1.00
00:35:25.020 to try to make a white girl and it didn't work 0.99
00:35:26.720 you know what it is, it's a 1.00
00:35:28.860 white woman 1.00
00:35:30.180 with a Squatamal and silhouette 1.00
00:35:32.680 yep, yep, turn the lights 1.00
00:35:35.040 off, she's illegal 1.00
00:35:36.720 it's a white 1.00
00:35:39.100 woman with like an abuela frame 1.00
00:35:41.240 and then and then her everyone's face is heinous these days i don't know if anyone's noticed
00:35:48.420 i'm seeing because i'm of course i'm out of the picture it's over for me yeah i'm hearing about
00:35:54.620 chapel roan you got daughters i'm sure you got this at some point chapel roan is such a dog
00:35:59.400 i don't even know anything about her i keep seeing pictures of her i'm like who lets this
00:36:03.440 woman out of the house without a bag on her head man we said this on the show before but once again

00:36:14.500 female transsexual yeah just like a woman who decided to dress like a drag queen like weird 0.99
00:36:20.120 shit like that and but i so she she's her big songs reed carpenter was saying all men are useless 0.99

00:37:04.920 wears kind of like white makeup
00:37:06.780 now in a black suit. I'm talking

00:37:10.820 on like a riser with a cloak. 0.99
00:37:12.900 He's nine feet tall and he's got fucking 1.00
00:37:14.800 branches for fingers. That's 1.00
00:37:16.540 what I see when I look at these fucking people. 1.00
00:37:19.120 But they're not singing about anything 1.00
00:37:20.880 kind of interesting. It's just
00:37:22.880 like really, it's like AI pop.
00:37:30.780 Drawing syrup on my pancakes, it's a pentagram
00:37:42.100 My father was struck by lightning
00:37:44.840 Joy Division t-shirt and pajama pants

00:38:00.740 When every fucking body looks like that for me. 1.00
00:38:10.180 I'm a daughter-got-girl in a penis-less world. 1.00
00:38:13.920 And some static got me pissed. 1.00
00:38:16.680 I'm a daughter-got-girl in a penis-less world. 1.00
00:38:20.240 And just like a red, I don't fucking exist. 0.99
00:38:23.120 yeah but anyway i'm getting you you got i got i'm counting on you to update me on what 0.98
00:38:31.520 the young girls are listening to yeah when your daughter demon hunters that's it it's
00:38:37.300 actually that is just it that's the whole thing k-pop demon hunters what are your feelings on
00:38:42.520 k-pop demon hunters i don't even know what it is by the way is that a movie i don't see i don't i
00:38:47.760 don't know either because i see it at walmart sometimes and i see it around i'm like is it a
00:38:52.520 show is it a movie is it a group i saw a mcdonald's promotion that was starring k-bop demon hunters
00:39:01.100 it was just like a commercial but it didn't seem real it didn't seem like it was advertising a
00:39:06.220 specific thing but it might be for having so i think it's at least a commercial it looked like
00:39:10.220 something designed to piss me off personally like it's a joke on me it's like 3d animation
00:39:17.880 that's filmed or created to look like it's stop motion so it's kind of choppy but it's also like
00:39:26.260 anime too yeah like the spider-man thing that they yeah yeah so it's it's like choppy on purpose
00:39:31.960 you know what it's so that that's uh what has something to do with interpolation i read that
00:39:36.380 there's a there is a there's a study of some kind that when you do that a certain level of like
00:39:43.180 removing the interpolated frame so it looks choppy gives it more of a natural feeling because your
00:39:49.980 brain does the interpolation so you get movement that isn't there or something anyways there's a 0.92
00:39:54.840 rationale for it and because of that rationale you're doing it fucking everywhere like a lot 0.81
00:39:58.460 of cartoons have done this now this is what they're trying to do with video games it's like
00:40:01.840 it seems like a more complete game when they make you buy dlc like they're just giving me
00:40:08.280 incomplete products now yeah yeah don't don't make me don't don't try and tap in to the 0.95
00:40:15.080 untaxed labor of my psyche to finish your fucking animation yep i'm hearing from for years that 0.97
00:40:24.060 frame rates are going up all i've heard is frame rates and 120 frames a second but there's only 0.99
00:40:30.000 five frames whatever frame rate you're selling i'm buying tell me it's 500 frames a second yes
00:40:37.080 that's how I know it's the future we in this house we don't tip and in this house we pay by
00:40:41.600 the frame we pay by the frame we pay by Ed Bill that's too much I don't want to pay
00:40:46.180 no it's only like five frames per second so I'm I mean I'm you're you're not going to give me the
00:40:52.620 full set of frames I'm not fucking paying full price but popping over to winners to see how 0.78
00:40:57.160 many frames you can get for a dollar I fucking don't worry do I got a question for you this 0.93
00:41:04.940 came up in the chat and i don't know if we've ever asked this on the show can video games be art 0.81
00:41:12.980 or are video games art what do you think i'm gonna throw it to you art okay so very simply
00:41:21.220 i'm gonna fuck this up art is not it's a category error okay video games are a medium painting is a 0.51
00:41:28.720 medium sculpture is a medium art is not in the same category as these different mediums 0.86
00:41:34.780 art is its own thing so are some video games art yes are most video games art absolutely not
00:41:41.560 that's a good point because asking is something art i mean is every movie or is everything that
00:41:49.540 is filmed like art in my opinion and this is becoming more obvious now as a as a 40 year 0.92
00:41:57.340 boomer and with millennials all speaking like a bunch of fucking soft carver boys people can 0.92
00:42:05.140 speak artfully mo i don't i don't think you do i don't think most people do but i know of people 0.98
00:42:11.660 who speak artfully listening to them is like listening to a performer just the way that they
00:42:17.800 talk and i so and what you wouldn't normally think of just speaking or i guess you would in
00:42:23.100 certain contexts like slam poetry right would be that would be what that is but um yeah like
00:42:28.300 a great orator right right right like we don't really have that as much anymore we have people
00:42:34.000 that guys like to listen to but i wouldn't call it art it's just slop or it's you know it's it's
00:42:39.660 it's the vocal equivalent of being high in sugar and fat you just enjoy it and someone who can
00:42:46.560 record not a slop video but you know like a video on youtube where they're talking faster
00:42:53.080 saying the right things that's one thing but then there's also someone like jonathan bowden as an
00:42:57.280 example or someone yeah where they can just stand up without they're not reading a prepared speech
00:43:01.780 they're just going off and they're doing it for 45 minutes you know what and this is kind of that
00:43:06.260 not to go on a tangent but it's one of my critiques of of trump is that people like listening to trump
00:43:10.760 because he's like hard you know like he's he's very um he's very rude and he's very off the cuff
00:43:16.000 and it's kind of entertaining but it's entertaining in my opinion because of the juxtaposition to his 0.95
00:43:20.880 role in society he's the fucking president of the empire right he's the emperor so to hear the 0.95
00:43:26.180 emperor talking that way is like it's like an ironic laugh that you can have for free but our 0.99
00:43:31.240 presidents used to do this presidents used to be artful speakers even obama on some days was kind
00:43:38.500 of like all right i know you're training and it's just it's a monkey on a stage but still
00:43:41.940 like i can't you can close your eyes and enjoy listening to him speak so and that's maybe a bad
00:43:47.660 example because those are written speeches but bowden is a good example because i mean 0.97
00:43:50.880 that motherfucker's off the cuff he was like trump's way of speaking works very good as a 0.93
00:43:58.760 young man you listen to him talk and there's recordings of it obviously in his like 20s 30s 0.99
00:44:04.320 whatever he's got the speed his style things like we're gonna go there we're gonna do that it's gonna
00:44:09.640 be the best deal and you're gonna love this deal you know and but he's got an electricity to it
00:44:13.320 but he's aged out of that but he's still trying to sound talk that so he's like it's such a good
00:44:18.640 deal that you're gonna love it and it's it's we're gonna go in and they're not gonna see us
00:44:26.660 coming and he's talking low like this now like it's not working you need the yeah the vigor of
00:44:34.640 youth to talk like he talks he doesn't have it so it's sounding really preposterous right now
00:44:40.280 yeah like i'm i am i want to like him because i still want to be the guy i'm like yeah he's
00:44:45.020 great it's just great hearing him talk i have not liked in hearing a word that comes out of 0.99
00:44:49.480 his fucking mouth for a while everything he posts on social media sucks he's just he's gone he's 0.99
00:44:55.600 gone full like schizo not even schizo like full dementia boomer i remember a lot of the stuff 1.00
00:45:00.660 from 2016 like early first term i could get behind it maybe i didn't disagree i disagree
00:45:06.520 what he's saying sometimes but like i enjoyed listening to him but yeah no he's just shot
00:45:11.640 being the president takes 25 years off your life over those eight years and so like obama
00:45:18.280 left like he just came out of a torture chamber like we saw joe biden turn into a chattering 0.84
00:45:23.960 skeleton before a very real time yeah he went in already off and by the end he's like 0.83
00:45:29.720 like it was it was scary watching what happened it's like watching a fucking like an old twilight 0.96
00:45:40.040 zone episode like a or old stephen king thing where it's like you're watching a man's brain 0.97
00:45:47.080 go from the top of his head into his stomach touch these guys got his hands on the ark of
00:45:51.320 the covenant there yeah exactly we watched joe biden open the ark of the covenant over 40 years
00:45:59.720 just just screaming
00:46:06.360 in slow motion just skin skin peeling from his face howling in fear
00:46:14.600 that is what we saw isn't it
00:46:21.940 you know it's on the video games our thing because that's been
00:46:26.280 posed and debate debated so much and um i think i i fell along what you had said because i said
00:46:33.740 what is our like there's bad movie there's every movie art and i always remind people that um
00:46:40.040 because i used to be into watching mystery science theater 3000 back when i was younger and uh back
00:46:46.820 then the internet was a much simpler place and the thing you could do and it's it's blown up now
00:46:51.640 by like watching old shitty movies you know and going to old vhs stores and find them and then 0.94
00:46:58.160 you forget that most movies that have ever been made suck oh yeah we talk about slop now like 0.99
00:47:05.220 that's what b movies were b movies were were cheap trash yeah that they shoveled into the 0.97
00:47:11.180 marketplace for children and youths that had like very little effort people had entire careers
00:47:17.180 acting in these and they weren't good at it and then they just went away and you know i mean
00:47:21.520 and you can't find them anywhere they they didn't port them over to dvds and then they're on no
00:47:27.440 streaming site so it's just lost media but like that's like the ice the iceberg under the water
00:47:33.300 of most film and i'm like would would you call those art like that's just commerce that's just
00:47:39.200 we need to churn out entertainment product for saps right that's not the godfather and we tend
00:47:46.740 to remember the top 20 of every decade but i'm like that's 10 years and there's some decades
00:47:52.320 that are worse than others you know i mean like the 2010s you know there's some there's some good
00:47:58.920 stuff in there but it ain't the 70s you know that's the one that's the era everyone loves
00:48:04.580 but um yeah so even within film even within visual art photography most of it wouldn't be
00:48:11.280 art and someone had said something that i never heard before and it just completely reframed the
00:48:18.080 entire thing and someone asked are board games art i said and can they be good question
00:48:27.200 that's right on the edge that's right because would would video games have more in common
00:48:33.360 with a board game first question maybe but then can a board game be art and that really
00:48:40.960 gave me pause what are you evaluating with like for example like can tic-tac-toe be art can like
00:48:46.800 hopscotch be art because like board games as a category of game you are here okay here's this
00:48:53.840 here's the spectrum i would say video games are on the most artistic side of games many video games
00:49:01.360 i would say here's the thing i would say the the relationship the commonality between many
00:49:07.760 video games that i would call art is that they're more toy than game there's there's less game there
00:49:13.680 in the gamey sense like a system of rules that you play like it's more about narrative it's more 0.88
00:49:20.820 about feeling it's like um one i was thinking of uh fuck i'm just being a nerd here but i don't 0.86
00:49:26.860 know if you've played deliver us the moon or you played scorn right i didn't like scorn that much 0.60
00:49:31.580 i liked i thought it was okay but scorn to me was art i think that's that's an art game we'll call
00:49:36.180 it an art game deliver us the moon is an art game journey is an art game yeah score it's like you
00:49:41.260 get two weapons and then you get a very limited opportunity to shoot them throughout the entire
00:49:46.380 right and and everything will because every interaction that it's giving you is it's forcing
00:49:51.320 you to look around and consider and and and it's it's trying to evoke feeling right it's just kind
00:49:58.560 of the point you're you're invited to figure what's even going on right right and um you know
00:50:04.300 do you want to know an extreme of that and i because it's very difficult for me to play like
00:50:10.540 cool games you know and to commit a long time to playing a game and i wish i did so i got to play 0.95
00:50:16.340 games and fits and starts and uh i bought this game that's so fucking stupid it's called liminal 0.89
00:50:24.580 core it's like a backroom style game but it's it's just like what if you found the back rooms 0.98
00:50:30.640 and it's no joke it's it's just walking through the back rooms it's it's it's as pure of a walking
00:50:38.860 simulator as i've ever seen because other walking simulators the idea is that it's just a way to
00:50:44.300 deliver a narrative it's just a way to tell a story and there's you can't really even do much
00:50:48.680 except get from one plot point to the other yeah but it's engaging like there's no even story here
00:50:53.820 you just wake up in the pool rooms and you're you just you're just walk no dialogue no carrot
00:50:59.500 it's just you there's nothing going on yeah and just it gets progressively incrementally stranger
00:51:07.180 but there's nothing of course i farmed it for clips i'm going to be using in videos in the
00:51:11.900 future but it's like like this like nothing happens in this so that people say well this it's
00:51:18.860 it's a meta commentary this this is what invites people to just layer and lacquer meaning over it's
00:51:27.660 It's like it's a meta commentary on games itself. 0.99
00:51:30.760 Fuck, I can imagine G.O. Pinocchetti having a take on this. 0.99
00:51:34.000 You know what I mean?
00:51:34.680 I'm going to bring him in.
00:51:36.300 Walking Sims as a game category are like the found object category of sculpture, right?
00:51:44.720 Where it's like there might be something here depending on the way that it's displayed or the way it's written up.
00:51:52.060 But in all likelihood, it's not. 1.00
00:51:54.300 it's just it's just trash and you're being hoodwinked even paying to see this shit like 0.98
00:51:59.300 the majority of walkings i've played good like dear esther is a good walking sim there's a lot 0.98
00:52:04.600 there's good walking sims but see the arrestor or dear arrestor dear esther it's about a guy
00:52:11.160 looking for his wife in the in the hebrides oh no i know okay no i don't i know that one sorry
00:52:17.460 i thought you were deer arrestor i said that sounds sick 0.98
00:52:21.680 fuck i'd play deer arrestor hell yeah imagine yeah you're like state police and you're just 1.00
00:52:28.660 trying to like stop deer that are crossing the road illegally deer yeah yeah fuck yeah 1.00
00:52:34.320 and then you're then you're wondering oh are they arresting them because they've committed crime or 0.96
00:52:39.080 are you arresting them to save them from hunters well they're now you're now you're in it oh or
00:52:44.680 is it there's like an element like you're it's gta where you're playing three different ones three
00:52:49.100 different cops one of them is arresting them to stop crime one of them is arresting them to save
00:52:53.980 them from hunters secretly and the other one is arresting them because he's a racist who just
00:52:57.700 hates deer and it's like you know or or because he is secretly a deer and if you don't want to 1.00
00:53:05.120 play this game slit your fucking wrists right now how about i come to where you're at come to you 1.00
00:53:11.520 when you're playing b-ball up on the throne pass in the rock i shoot you in the back of the head 1.00
00:53:16.580 yeah wasting my time this is going to be the title of 2028 i guarantee you i don't know how to know 0.95
00:53:22.960 more about you wasting my time all right so hope that settles our video games art thing everyone
00:53:30.180 got him got him so just a couple pieces of content i want to talk about and um i i don't for this
00:53:38.300 first one i might end up passing it to you because i don't know much about this but it seems like
00:53:43.640 something you would know about you heard about this professor jang guy oh it's a chinese guy 0.60
00:53:51.520 pass it to judas let's see let's look him up on google professor jang i don't fucking know
00:53:57.900 who is this oh he's the the chalkboard guy yeah i look i've seen the clips i don't know anything 0.81
00:54:04.460 about him i've just yeah yeah i don't know everyone's i've seen so many videos about him
00:54:11.000 and some people have said he came out of nowhere and i understand why they would think that
00:54:16.980 but i've heard that before about all kinds of different content creators and it's just that
00:54:23.560 we weren't paying attention you know i mean he got famous now i've heard that people like this
00:54:28.280 so-and-so came out of nowhere like martyr made you know like martyr made he came out of nowhere
00:54:32.000 who's who's funding him like well he's been around for a long time and he's been in like other spaces
00:54:37.760 you can have whatever criticisms you want about him but i'm like don't just start believing he's
00:54:43.360 an op you know look into it but with with jang i look at him and it's it shows the
00:54:53.360 the popularity and the validity of our ideas and by our ideas i mean within 0.70
00:54:58.720 dissident rights spaces now we're now seeing chinese knockoffs of it
00:55:03.960 you know that means the market is healthy and this guy who who he's professor jang but i believe
00:55:14.540 he just has a degree in in something or other i'd heard it was like in english or something
00:55:20.700 and he's
00:55:22.200 powerfully Chinese
00:55:25.280 he's got the accent
00:55:27.180 he's filmed in a very Chinese way
00:55:29.800 it's like a type of media
00:55:31.200 that wouldn't be obvious to people like us
00:55:33.700 because we think to make content
00:55:36.040 things need to be a bit more polished
00:55:38.000 a bit more measured and a bit more dynamic too
00:55:40.100 but he's doing something that
00:55:42.100 appeals to those types of people
00:55:44.180 which is just put a camera in front
00:55:46.000 of a blackboard
00:55:47.240 and that's it
00:55:48.900 you don't need quick cuts
00:55:51.140 or anything like that 1.00
00:55:52.380 and it comes from the Chinese
00:55:55.180 soul, this guy
00:55:56.720 I guess that's appealing to people
00:55:58.740 but then I look at the type
00:56:00.640 I'm scanning through his videos and there's a lot of them
00:56:03.180 and it's like a 7 part series
00:56:05.120 on game theory 0.99
00:56:06.240 like fuck, that's the stuff that we do 0.99
00:56:09.060 but he just 1.00
00:56:11.280 he showed up recently
00:56:12.500 and then 7 part series
00:56:15.020 on game theory and then
00:56:16.580 2 part series on Jeffrey Epstein
00:56:18.800 and then he's talking about the old testament you know i mean but it's a it's not about chinese
00:56:25.200 stuff it's about like weird white guy stuff yeah which that's what was shocking to me but he's
00:56:32.800 doing it he's doing it in a way that i think reads as intelligent people someone did a great summary
00:56:40.100 of it which is like we've been using tanks for hundreds of years but tanks have one and he writes
00:56:47.320 the word tanks on the board in a purposefully messy doctor-like way but the tanks always had
00:56:53.000 one weakness anti-tank missiles raise it up and it circles it three times and then the comment
00:57:00.120 is like this is like receiving a university education for free thank you professor jang
00:57:05.280 but that's that's what works i guess i don't know if like i'm not surprised by it
00:57:14.080 So what I would do is basically sit down everyone, including Russia, China, Iran, and say, it's time for a new world order where we are partners in this relationship.
00:57:28.700 Before America was a hegemon, before the U.S. dollar was a world reserve currency.
00:57:32.460 But now what we want to do is open a dialogue where everyone is respected, where America is no longer the bully, but a willing partner in creating a new economic order that benefits everyone and not just a few.
00:57:50.880 Where would you say the part of the world that's most hostile to Western civilization, as you just described it, is?
00:57:58.420 Well, I would say Canada, Britain, Western Europe. I would say these places are the most hostile towards Western civilization. Chinese people have tremendous respect for Western civilization. In fact, China's in the process of promoting the classics.
00:58:21.780 i don't want to just call people dumb but you can measure someone's grasp of what they
00:58:30.420 advocate for in an interview setting and like when i see him talk about what's wrong with the 0.73
00:58:36.860 world and he's like well what we what we need is america to share they need to share the piece
00:58:41.920 selling to like tucker carlson who's just a dopey puppet these days like whoever's across from him
00:58:50.640 he's nodding going yeah yeah well i can see that definitely to to to us jang is just a weird 0.82
00:58:58.700 chinese dude but to the chinese he is a westernized he's highly westernized jang was raised he spent
00:59:09.300 most of his life in toronto he's a toronto guy really i did not know that part and but currently
00:59:15.100 all of his current videos since he's become famous are since he has moved back to beijing
00:59:20.140 working for the chinese government so you can kind of see what's going like you know we talked
00:59:27.240 before about the white monkey jobs where they want to take like popular something sometimes 0.66
00:59:31.200 celebrities but otherwise just like attractive well-spoken white dudes with good english to
00:59:37.880 teach courses and to become spokespeople for government programs or for institutions
00:59:42.840 because it legitimizes them not and we think this is for us but that's conceded it is not for us
00:59:48.900 it is for the chinese population it's a mode of social control right so i think that's probably
00:59:56.240 what's going on like with jang seems like goofy to us because jang isn't meant for us us interacting
01:00:03.080 with jang is part of the kabuki that's going on for the actual intended viewership which is the
01:00:09.340 chinese citizens themselves it's like oh wow he's a bunch of uh canadians are talking to mr jang
01:00:15.560 the giant is so smart wait a minute here if the banks can print as much money as possible
01:00:24.460 why do we have poverty right so that is the common answer scarcity we have poverty
01:00:33.760 because of scarcity but i already told you this they can print money out of nothing
01:00:39.520 so money is infinite so why are we why do we have poor people then because we don't want people to
01:00:47.660 all have money see i i got this article here on substack published by the political economist and
01:00:56.460 this would have been earlier this year in january and it was looking at this guy and he was echoing
01:01:02.720 what you had said which is that he was just it really hits everyone he's just a toronto chinese
01:01:07.600 guy doesn't him but um because he's going i know chinese do their names differently his full name
01:01:13.040 is jean joaquin x-u-e-q-i-n walking like like joaquin phoenix like joaquin phoenix yeah it'd 0.65
01:01:23.540 be funny if like john translates to phoenix his name's a phoenix joaquin asshole yeah i'm reeves 0.99
01:01:32.820 keanu i'll fucking i'll slit your throat i would i would guess that that x-u-e-q-i-n is probably 0.98
01:01:39.720 zhuchin i would think maybe zhuchin huh zhuchin let me i'm gonna check it now because i want to 0.99
01:01:47.760 okay carry on i hate their names it's something like making when i make sound effects with my
01:01:57.040 son oh it's not juchin it's shui shui chin shui chin wait shui chin okay that's actually pretty
01:02:04.160 sick yeah i like that all right all right that's tight dare i say it's boss hell yeah all right
01:02:11.120 in august 2025 a chinese canadian by the name of uh joaquin joachin started a sub stack with
01:02:17.760 the tagline i analyze history to connect the past explain the present and predict the future i mean
01:02:22.640 How many people do we know have done that for much, much longer?
01:02:28.900 Zwickon does not attribute this phrase.
01:02:31.120 He's not an economist, but an English graduate who is unlikely to have ever read Keynes.
01:02:36.380 That sub-stack account acquired a staggering 44,000 subscribers in half a year,
01:02:42.380 already becoming the number one ranked sub-stack in the world politics category,
01:02:46.440 which I didn't know the exact timeline there, but something's got to be going on.
01:02:52.460 Like, within six months, you get 44,000 subscribers on Substaps.
01:02:55.620 I mean, look, it's inconceivable that the Chinese government would buy Substaps.
01:03:00.420 They wouldn't do that.
01:03:01.500 They wouldn't buy sub-subscriptions, sub-sub-subscriptions, right?
01:03:05.020 They wouldn't do that.
01:03:05.860 Especially something, it's just, here's the Substack called predictive history.
01:03:10.340 Like, I've seen this dozens of times, like, versions of this.
01:03:14.740 Nobody cares.
01:03:15.920 I analyze history.
01:03:17.560 Not only is it a crowded market, but also it's such a tiny market. 0.99
01:03:21.440 really genuinely nobody fucking cares or reads this shit man so the fact that he has that many 0.98
01:03:26.420 subs it is 100 a chinese op that is hilarious dude it's so so flagrant because i i don't see 0.98
01:03:35.720 him as a terribly interesting guy and i'm the type of viewer who's ready and willing to see like an 0.63
01:03:42.380 old asian nerd in a sage-like way you want to see them in a sage-like way of course but like i'm 0.95
01:03:49.180 seen him just talk mad shit his youtube channel has over a million subscribers almost all of them 0.90
01:03:55.100 gained in the last year i thought he came about i thought he was around for longer like i could 0.88
01:04:02.060 have swore it might have just been a different chinese guy i don't think so so yeah it's like
01:04:06.820 within a year half a million subscribers which is fucking astonishing his videos on game theory
01:04:14.340 have gone viral and as someone who has covered game theory we've covered game theory on the show 0.79
01:04:20.120 we brought it up there's no reason game theory should go viral guys that's odd the game theory
01:04:26.300 isn't even if you're into that sort of thing you know i mean like it's there's not a it's not a lot
01:04:33.120 i mean there's a lot there but i i don't know why it would go viral especially like when you have
01:04:38.660 other professors of game when you have other professors of game theory with their own youtube
01:04:44.920 channels who explain it better and they're getting a fraction of a fraction of that yeah
01:04:50.340 do you want to hate me do you want to hate him even more i i i could go for some hate yeah
01:04:56.200 most of his career after graduating from yale in 99 was spent as a journalist he's actually
01:05:04.040 a journalist imagine going from graduating from yale and going to be well he studied english he
01:05:10.280 went to yale for english and then he became a journalist and then a lot of that time he actually
01:05:14.700 was living in in beijing so we're going to cover this in a book not this episode but
01:05:22.660 even on the next episode one after that uh called spy schools and uh some people probably won't like
01:05:29.400 this because you know i understand why complaining about china and russia and maybe even iran is not
01:05:38.520 very popular right now and i understand why but it gets into the infiltration of western universities
01:05:44.760 mainly china but it brings up even like south americans uh spies working for the government
01:05:51.000 to try and steal secrets and i i look at jiang and um just based on what i'm reading right now
01:05:58.280 it seems to follow a track where it's like you're you're it seems like you're only in this
01:06:03.960 institution to be in the institution because they put them there it's like just take the course but
01:06:09.320 you're there to network you're there to make friends and impress the teachers and be a vector
01:06:16.280 for we can invite them to this conference over here where our people will get in their ear and
01:06:22.080 try and invite them to this conference over here and basically bring them on side to give us you
01:06:26.820 know i mean like it's a it's this process it's not always stealing documents and and recording
01:06:32.760 microfilm it's like building relationships so i look at him i'm like okay you're a chinese
01:06:37.000 like a guy who like moved to like it's it's odd he moved back to china afterwards and actually
01:06:43.020 that is strange it would be odd if you believed his story but i mean look in my my limited 0.96
01:06:49.680 experience it is fair in the same way that we just assumed all jews are lying and trying to
01:06:55.000 kill you at all times if you ever meet a chinese person and i don't mean a chinese diaspora person 0.96
01:07:00.340 but like an actual like a blood china china person if especially if they're out of their element even 1.00
01:07:06.540 if they have spent a long time in the west just assume they're working for the fucking chinese 0.98
01:07:10.860 government man because if they have family back in china it's the fucking ussr dude they like they 0.99
01:07:18.000 are working for the government they're an agent one way or another especially if they work in 0.99
01:07:23.440 institution like if they're running a restaurant fine okay but if they're working in journalism
01:07:29.080 education media engineering the sciences i guarantee you they're connected to the 0.87
01:07:36.320 fucking chinese government yeah and also like i've seen enough evidence in making big swings 0.88
01:07:43.200 and being wrong or saying things that are kind of perplexing here we go i like this article because 0.98
01:07:47.900 He says Joaquin's content suddenly went viral mid-2025 for no apparent reason.
01:07:55.120 A Newsweek article claimed that it was because Joaquin predicted Trump's return and war with Iran.
01:08:00.940 In reality, he simply sketched a scenario in which there might be an attack on Iran under Trump.
01:08:05.880 Hardly a new insight given Trump's first term and Trump's dislike of Iran going back to 1988.
01:08:12.340 Joaquin's argument seemed persuasive to some less informed viewers, but not to those with deeper knowledge.
01:08:17.560 his biases are not hard to discern in one video he claims that russian civilization is based on
01:08:22.920 violence while arguing that the united states was not because uh for example one example with the
01:08:29.640 american indians was met with little resistance so he'll make like the geopolitical claims like that
01:08:37.320 um his youtube account is says it's based in canada even though it appears to post videos
01:08:42.120 of him lecturing to a chinese to chinese high school students uh his main twitter account
01:08:47.460 claims to be based in beijing but its actual location is hong kong his other twitter account
01:08:53.600 also claims to be based in beijing but x shows is based in australia so that could also be a case of
01:08:59.280 like people running his account but that that in itself is strange like how many people around the
01:09:04.400 world do you have contributing to this when it's supposed to just be you in front of a classroom
01:09:09.320 yeah um yeah raised in canada went to yale studied english moved to china after graduating
01:09:15.240 yale where he advocated for educational reforms uh until 2024 he had no background in economics
01:09:21.480 geopolitics of any kind um and then the piece then gets into possible cia recruitment and things like
01:09:28.760 that so it's making a case the title is john professor jang wakin a cia created doppelganger
01:09:37.000 so no then the question okay is he is he they're saying he came out of nowhere yes but is it because
01:09:43.880 of china or is it because the cia that's what it's asking i'm not saying either way but um i'll hear
01:09:51.080 evidence of either but anyway that's uh yeah i don't i don't like this you get the sense that
01:09:58.040 something's going on and maybe we're supposed to celebrate this because it's our ideas getting in
01:10:06.040 front of more people more people are exposed to strange which ideas like mud flood and hyperborea
01:10:11.960 like what what exact that is a good point like what what part of this is anything that we would
01:10:16.600 fly as a you know i'm gonna look him up let's see i'm just gonna type in jang predictive history he 0.52
01:10:22.840 doesn't even have sorry this will sound really stupid he doesn't even have a logo it's just the 0.56
01:10:27.000 default p you know what i mean yeah on youtube but he's still got 2.13 million subscribers yeah 0.77
01:10:33.320 this is all fraudulent this is all fraudulent secret history thus spoke zarathustra i would
01:10:40.840 have put the spake zarathustra but whatever uh he's talking about jesus he's talking about rome
01:10:47.000 being an anti-civilization he's you know when we bounce around between these topics on blood
01:10:53.640 side because if you look at this it's like the video list of blood satellite on youtube it's 0.98
01:11:00.040 It's like we're talking about it's delivered by a weird Gen X Chinese guy with poor English who is just recycling shit that's already been said a thousand times. 0.90
01:11:09.660 But he has two million viewers. 1.00
01:11:10.720 No, it's it's fake.
01:11:12.600 And we can't decide whether it's CIA or the or Chinese intelligence, but it's 100 percent fake.
01:11:17.220 The only debate that we should be having is whether it's Chinese intelligence or CIA.
01:11:23.540 Yeah, it's certainly one of those two.
01:11:25.620 but yeah he's bouncing around
01:11:28.120 between topics and we have the good sense
01:11:29.900 to state up front that 0.97
01:11:32.000 what the fuck who are we 1.00
01:11:33.820 we're a bunch of a couple of Canadians we don't know this shit 1.00
01:11:36.040 we just find it interesting but we can't 0.99
01:11:38.220 at least we're not trying to
01:11:40.100 speak to authority but if we
01:11:42.060 just did this in front of a whiteboard
01:11:43.780 that's what we should do we should actually just
01:11:46.060 dox ourselves and start making content like
01:11:48.160 this pacing back and forth 1.00
01:11:49.580 with the fucking you know 0.99
01:11:51.940 quarter zip 1.00
01:11:53.160 Genghis Khan 0.97
01:11:55.860 World Shatterer 0.99
01:11:58.280 Thanks
01:11:59.620 A lot about Rome 1.00
01:12:01.560 Resurrecting the Gnostic Jesus 0.98
01:12:03.920 Looking at this 0.99
01:12:06.300 Must be like looking at Blood Salad
01:12:07.880 Because I'm looking at this highly critically 0.99
01:12:09.640 What did any of this shit have to do with it 0.98
01:12:11.600 Anything 0.99
01:12:12.000 It's kind of over
01:12:15.660 None of this flows
01:12:17.240 None of this tracks
01:12:18.200 I'm getting whiplash just looking at this
01:12:20.660 I'm sorry everybody
01:12:21.620 I'm sorry for this show
01:12:23.340 explaining humanity's
01:12:26.540 transition to agriculture
01:12:27.780 right side by side with
01:12:30.380 Iran's strategy matrix
01:12:32.000 yeah the oldest one is like a year ago
01:12:34.520 wait
01:12:36.300 Gene Joaquin teaching
01:12:38.400 gay Talese research method 0.99
01:12:40.340 what the hell 1.00
01:12:41.100 is he teaching 1.00
01:12:43.600 is he teaching Chinese guys how to be gay 1.00
01:12:46.440 looks like it 1.00
01:12:48.100 maybe
01:12:49.000 maybe he is CIA after all
01:12:51.300 was his first career
01:12:53.460 as a CIA cutout
01:12:56.100 teaching Chinese guys how to be gay? 0.99
01:13:00.020 Oh, man. 1.00
01:13:01.820 Maybe he is blood cellar
01:13:03.360 pilled after all.
01:13:05.980 Okay, but before we get into
01:13:07.860 the book you want to cover,
01:13:10.760 I got you to do some homework.
01:13:13.840 And we need to cover this
01:13:15.380 at least briefly.
01:13:16.800 Okay.
01:13:18.320 Do you want to talk about
01:13:19.880 the louis thoreau manosphere documentary we're gonna we're gonna here we go we're gonna talk
01:13:25.020 about it you know what i'm just gonna pull up the trailer here and we're just gonna listen to the
01:13:30.160 trailer just as a refresher let me get this going uh for people who haven't seen this yet it's on
01:13:37.580 um it's on netflix that's where i saw it but you can download it from other places you can find
01:13:43.060 clips floating around let's i forget all of their names by the way so i'm going to be referring to
01:13:47.780 these people by describing them visually.
01:13:51.440 We got the Hispanic one, the white one, the black one,
01:13:55.980 and then Andrew Tate.
01:13:57.140 Those would be the main guys,
01:13:58.080 but let's just see what's going on.
01:13:59.620 I normally train a little bit earlier in the day.
01:14:01.240 I like to start my day off working out, doing hard things.
01:14:03.580 Who are you talking to?
01:14:04.900 What, do I not talk to them?
01:14:05.820 Do I not talk to them?
01:14:06.660 Talk to you.
01:14:07.500 We're not on social media now.
01:14:10.240 What would you say is the message?
01:14:11.680 I coach boys how to make money.
01:14:13.860 Wow, this is a nice spot.
01:14:15.040 How to be outside the system.
01:14:17.280 how to be proper guys shut up another would you see me that way um did you look at my arms the
01:14:23.880 stature's not saying too much I was entering the manosphere a wild frontier of streamers
01:14:30.840 whose behavior is reshaping the culture people ask me why Miami and I tell them because if it
01:14:36.900 was 120 years ago I'd be on a horse on the way to California to dig for gold whose appeal has
01:14:43.920 proved irresistible to hordes of young fans 15 is probably like your main demographic no it isn't 1.00
01:14:51.780 they hear that content they think it's acceptable fuck the woman fuck the woman what what have i 1.00
01:14:55.760 done i'm doing it for money i don't care so let's stop there um louis throw i know you probably 0.99
01:15:01.940 don't care for louis throw that much a lot of people don't i've been a fan of his documentaries
01:15:08.240 for quite some time many many if if i agreed with his politics he'd be my favorite guy i think that 0.84
01:15:14.480 he makes great documentaries i just think that he's fucking wrong and dumb but i but i mean he's
01:15:19.120 a good documentary filmmaker yeah and these are the perfect people for him to talk to um and when 0.96
01:15:26.920 he says that i wouldn't even call this the manosphere um i understand that could be quibbling
01:15:32.720 over semantics but to me this would be the red pill sphere all these guys were from a very
01:15:38.020 recent iteration of the larger manosphere movement which is a dumb way to describe it but
01:15:44.080 that goes back a long time the early manosphere stuff was men giving you insight into divorce
01:15:52.420 law and things like that yeah and trying to sort of reclaim masculinity and there's a self-help
01:15:58.740 aspect to it as well but you didn't get like you didn't get the convergence of you know relationship
01:16:07.720 self-help with financial self-help and that's kind of what this is like this red pill stuff it's it's
01:16:14.240 the coalescing of like early manosphere stuff masculism with like financial independence that
01:16:22.600 whole thing and self-help and like but that that has its roots going back decades and then conspiracy
01:16:27.720 culture those three things intersecting in a way that actually doesn't make any sense really like
01:16:33.720 that is andrew tate that's all of these guys i think or most of them seem to fall under andrew
01:16:41.960 tate and they all start talking about the matrix around the same time andrew tate did and started
01:16:47.560 getting into you watch them in real time get into conspiracy culture yeah which is to say all around
01:16:53.920 the same time about 10 years too late yeah like like recently and and i was saying this to someone
01:17:00.320 before about what makes this content so popular and i was positing that what a lot of people like
01:17:06.940 to see is someone get red pilled they like watching a guy like sneeko who we saw in that trailer
01:17:13.080 and uh who i just i think i might despise him more than anyone else because he just brings
01:17:18.980 nothing to the table and he's not he keeps switching up what he is um but like you watch
01:17:26.860 like watching him get red pill all these guys are getting into the jq they're getting into
01:17:33.180 like flat earth and shit like that and that's the story that they're selling that's what people are 0.61
01:17:38.240 paying to watch is watching a person get into this stuff and but that also means they don't need to 0.99
01:17:42.700 be competent at all they can be stupid they can make mistakes that's part of the fun so you're 0.96
01:17:49.360 not you're not looking for an expert you're paying for someone it's like a a charming failure in a 0.99
01:17:55.960 sense so i'm like fuck that's a good grift but then i was we were joking with this all the time 0.81
01:18:02.180 and i said this before a guy who parodied this very well is tim heidecker all these guys they 0.95
01:18:08.680 started getting into the exact same aesthetics at the same time you see one of these guys like
01:18:12.580 the white guy where it's like i'm gonna name all the things that you have to be doing at the same
01:18:16.820 time drinking a fine scotch playing chess with glass chess pieces getting in and out of your
01:18:25.620 ferrari wearing armani suits smoking cigars wearing aviators and then kind of talking about
01:18:33.840 joe rogan stuff talking about hunting to mma they're into all these things at the same time
01:18:39.660 in the same room and they've ruined the appreciation of every single one of those things
01:18:45.600 like if you want i mean they haven't ruined them for me because i'm i don't i'm not exposed to them 0.99
01:18:51.000 at all but yeah i understand if you want to smoke a cigar while playing chess you can go fuck 0.94
01:18:56.300 yourself yeah and you can thank these people for that forget standing next to a glass chess yeah 1.00
01:19:03.260 forget like if you're drinking a nice glass of whiskey and smoking a cigar you are a suspect
01:19:08.240 in people's minds now it's like oh they're gonna start saying oh we like bow hunting too you 0.99
01:19:12.840 asshole the funny thing is i have been in a room at least four times in my life with 10 or more 0.99
01:19:19.840 men smoking cigars drinking scotch and talking about guns and motorcycles and every time every 0.98
01:19:27.020 single time almost everyone in that room was 60 and 80 pounds overweight and married every every 1.00
01:19:36.220 fucking time so and that one of my arguments against this shit is like the the the masculine 0.99
01:19:43.340 it's all it's kind of like why don't if you want to talk about masculinity why not add cruises and 0.99
01:19:48.600 retirement to florida this fucking list of things that you associate with matt this is this is little 0.94
01:19:54.320 boys coping with fatherlessness by creating a phantom in their mind of what a dad might have 0.99
01:20:00.660 fucking looked like if they ever had one that's what this looks like to me well that's because 0.95
01:20:04.500 andrew tate i recall as being one of the earlier ones and so the fact that so many of these guys 0.97
01:20:10.000 are following andrew tate is embarrassing it's just it's yeah it's a positive feedback loop of
01:20:15.660 fatherless boys following other fatherless boys it's bizarre and sad can we talk about this this
01:20:22.220 was the best part for me so yes yes a few people profiled in this um and uh very some people are
01:20:30.960 are just you know about the working out then there's one guy who's more the financial side
01:20:36.560 of things and he's he's the guy who's got to pull up in his maserati his brand new maserati
01:20:41.500 and but they're all they're telling differing stories about what their relationship status is
01:20:48.560 but the one that the guy that seemed the most normal and out of his depth was a guy by the
01:20:55.400 name of myron gaines who is on fresh and fit which is a show that's been around a long time
01:21:01.380 and i remember they got famous because they would just have uh they would do the round table where 0.99
01:21:07.140 they invite a bunch of e-hoes on you know a bunch of you know only fans whores and then just 0.99
01:21:13.320 talk down to them embarrass them rant at them and get into arguments with them because they're 1.00
01:21:18.840 just dumb bitches right um but uh he was on camera he was the most nervous he was the most 0.99
01:21:27.100 cautious about what he said he was the most he was the least putting on an act however when he 1.00
01:21:34.000 was putting it on act it was the most obvious and he seemed to be the only guy there you know there
01:21:39.500 was other guys there were they had their girl in the room right but that was clearly a woman that's
01:21:44.920 been there for two months and probably a literal prostitute right well he admitted that like the 0.99
01:21:50.080 for the hispanic nigger at the beginning yeah admitted like oh yeah she's literally an of and 0.98
01:21:54.540 that i mean the implication being that like she's being paid to be here yeah but uh with myron 0.99
01:21:59.580 games it seemed like he had a girlfriend who'd been with him for a few a couple years at least
01:22:04.100 yes and she was hyper normal and so i'm looking and then in the course of the documentary there's
01:22:11.360 this amazing moment that i love where he's talking about how he wants to have multiple wives but he's
01:22:18.680 good with the one he's got right now because he's so busy and then the camera turns her she's involved
01:22:23.800 she's on the film now which is the last thing he wants and she's just drawing i'm paraphrasing here
01:22:28.760 but she says he asks her like what do you think of all this and she's just like he you know he
01:22:33.840 talks different to me when the camera's off like he's different when we're together which is the
01:22:38.300 last thing that she i understand from his perspective no you can't be saying that 0.97
01:22:43.000 she's saying that this is all he's just talking shit you know and then i'm looking at the article 0.83
01:22:49.320 right now myron gains his ex-girlfriend breaks silence and thanks louis throw following netflix 0.98
01:22:55.240 is Manosphere Doc. So they filmed this
01:22:57.120 like a year ago. And it just came out
01:22:59.280 now. So in the interim, he
01:23:01.220 broke up with her around that time. But I
01:23:03.160 think maybe she'd never
01:23:05.120 seen him talk like
01:23:07.320 that in front of her before. And she's like,
01:23:09.300 huh?
01:23:11.080 Yeah.
01:23:12.940 But it's also like
01:23:14.820 polyamory. Let's call it having
01:23:17.140 multiple wives. It's something you either do or you don't. 1.00
01:23:20.360 I would say
01:23:21.300 if you're going to do that,
01:23:22.800 you should be doing it. You can't be saying, I'll do that in a
01:23:25.220 few years while you've got your one wife yeah you kind of need just you need to start i think you
01:23:30.840 kind of need to get the five fast or get get a couple fast on the way to five can't be like now
01:23:36.560 i'm going to start it's like these people who think they're going to start writing when they
01:23:40.460 retire you know what you know what's funny is you're you are trying to plot out the correct
01:23:44.920 way to do hypergamy or polygamy from the perspective of a monogamist which is to say
01:23:50.440 you enter the relationship um treating the other person with respect and stating your intentions 0.99
01:23:56.040 clearly but these guys are a bunch of whoremongering rapists and scammers so of course they're going to 0.98
01:24:03.920 enter the relationship telling her one thing and then live live on television say by the way 1.00
01:24:10.320 i intend to have three more wives because they're just fucking dumb niggers well everyone everyone 1.00
01:24:16.700 interviewed in this entire show including the fucking louisiana white guy he's a fucking 1.00
01:24:20.500 nigger man the only one that could conceivably do that would be andrew tape that's only because 1.00
01:24:27.420 he is a pimp he's literally a sex trafficker these two of these guys also admit no what 0.99
01:24:33.480 two no one of them the first guy admitted to being a pimp as well he literally said yeah i'm a pimp 0.98
01:24:38.880 what are you going to do about it it's like all right so i mean cool i cool i guess like we're
01:24:43.480 not even on the same page here man the reason energy seems like a legitimate pimp is because
01:24:48.380 he denies it and that's something that when he's got like a sex trafficker always say i am not a
01:24:53.520 pimp i have just consensual relationships with these struggling women you know but that that's
01:24:59.340 something a sex trafficker i would say but a guy's like yeah i'm a pimp so i'm like no you're not 1.00
01:25:03.760 you just got he's got a bitch that you pay a lot of money to probably the point is you don't make 0.99
01:25:08.320 money off of her you you got a girlfriend who cheats on you and you say good well like with 1.00
01:25:13.520 him the argument about him being a pimp was he started by just paying of girls so that he could
01:25:18.420 get cloud on social media but then he started bringing in of girls to make content and then
01:25:24.560 taking a cut when the content was sold so at that point he is he is actually a pimp he's actually 0.99
01:25:29.940 running a whorehouse i i will say that in that instance i think that's many whores having one 0.97
01:25:36.840 employee let me just say this because what a pimp would do is he would have a stable horse and he's 1.00
01:25:43.460 the dominant position pimps up hose down is what they say in his example i think this is hose up
01:25:50.320 pimp down i think what he did was he's just a guy who's got a house and that he takes it he say i'm
01:25:56.060 taking a cut well what a pimp does he takes the majority of what they take and kind of pays them
01:26:01.580 a pittance that's what makes it a pimp i think what it shows how little i know of the pimps
01:26:06.320 because i'm actually a normal white person i think what they they just found a contractor 1.00
01:26:10.740 these olaf girls be like oh you can do this for me i'll give you a reasonable rate for your
01:26:15.240 services they're just giving him a discount he's writing it off his depreciation it would be like 0.99
01:26:20.920 if i if i started like a web design company for these girls and i had a bunch of them as my
01:26:27.600 clients and they were just paying me to make their websites i could i could say i'm a pimp i 0.99
01:26:32.400 could lie or it could be like oh they're just paying me because i have a house that they want
01:26:37.800 to use i'm a landlord you're a vendor assisting them with their business and because you're
01:26:43.340 facilitating their business you technically are a pimp yeah like the landlord who rents a house
01:26:48.740 horse is also technically a pimp yeah you rent a house to process and they pay you a little bit
01:26:55.780 of money for that and he can say that i'm a pimp so what because he knows if the cops look at him
01:27:01.840 they'll say oh that's not what you are you're just a strange man but but i this is such a good
01:27:08.880 documentary because like i i don't i don't know i don't have anything like necessarily against
01:27:14.020 the man like i don't really care about it but it was interesting watching louis throw who
01:27:19.300 plays dumb sometimes but what i found in the documentary i was impressed because a couple
01:27:27.680 points louis throw said like he's hearing them out and he says he says that these people represent 0.97
01:27:33.640 like the one percent of the manosphere he said i'm talking to the extremes i'm talking to the
01:27:39.960 most strangest ones but he's like this is a big space there's a lot of people and there's a lot
01:27:45.480 people who don't advocate for this sort of thing
01:27:47.420 and they just talk about men's rights
01:27:49.440 and things like that he said that I'm like yeah 0.95
01:27:51.240 okay good for you
01:27:52.920 and he's he at another point
01:27:55.500 he says you know they are making
01:27:57.380 some good arguments there's a reason
01:27:59.580 that they're popular and they're speaking to
01:28:01.380 young men that's yeah I'm like
01:28:03.260 okay so this isn't just a hit
01:28:05.260 piece he's doing but like
01:28:07.220 there's no way to interview Sneeko
01:28:09.260 where it's not a hit piece there's no
01:28:11.300 way to interview this like 1.00
01:28:12.820 guy who was a Muslim
01:28:15.060 five minutes ago now he's saying he's jewish now he's he's a conspiracy guy and then he switches 0.95
01:28:20.500 to the different he's just obviously a scammer and and luthero makes a good point he's like oh
01:28:25.140 it seems like your fans are very young and say no no because they have i think uh
01:28:32.020 a mistruth that they believe that this it's all ceos watching this no it's like 15 year old kids
01:28:38.660 almost exclusively yeah which like i couldn't i couldn't do it not that i would and look honestly
01:28:44.900 this is what because you said like oh you know like whatever i don't care i do actually care
01:28:48.020 about this i don't even have sons and i care about this this is i look at these people like the the
01:28:54.980 dei radical left in the school board who are trying to make my daughters gay 0.90
01:29:00.260 that's how i view these these like i want these guys hung to be honest with you i 0.58
01:29:04.580 deeply deeply hate everyone involved in this film this is why i got him to watch it yeah
01:29:10.180 because if you just watch the trailer it doesn't do it just i and i don't and again i agree with
01:29:15.060 throw like a lot of manuscript guys are actually just trying to warn dudes about marriage and 0.96
01:29:19.620 divorce which is fine but these niggers like we you said kind of at the beginning which is true 0.99
01:29:25.860 they're they're taking a lot of our out quote-unquote hour like dissident right radical 1.00
01:29:31.540 right talking points and they're turning it into a marketing exercise and they're just they're
01:29:35.700 selling and they're making money off of it through like finance you're like you know selling uh
01:29:39.780 finance platforms and shit but at the same time regardless that you know i agree with you that 0.96
01:29:45.860 women belong in the home you know i agree with you that there's a lack of masculinity and that um 0.97
01:29:51.460 men are trying to be men are pushed into women's roles and then men's roles traditional roles are 1.00
01:29:55.540 given to women like these these are all true things but you are a rapist and a scam artist 1.00
01:30:02.740 and a pimp and a fraudster and you're also a all but one of these people is 1.00
01:30:08.340 literally just a fucking nigger you have you don't belong here you're not one of us and it disgusts 1.00
01:30:14.260 me that people like theroux on the other side of the aisle think that you represent us that that 1.00
01:30:20.660 turns my stomach to think that when people think about a radical who believes in the traditional 0.98
01:30:27.780 roles in a marriage they think of fucking sneeko like that drives me up the wall man 1.00
01:30:34.020 Can we just kill Sneeko and bury him 1.00
01:30:36.780 and then we don't have to have this problem anymore? 0.99
01:30:38.940 I remember there was some
01:30:40.720 drama that was caused by a bunch of these
01:30:42.860 guys going to a club. Nick Fuentes
01:30:44.680 was there.
01:30:46.240 They're listening to the
01:30:48.520 Kanye West, Heil Hitler song.
01:30:50.780 They requested the DJ play that.
01:30:52.640 There wasn't even a white guy in that room. Everybody
01:30:54.580 there was just some kind of nigger. 1.00
01:30:56.920 And then in the 1.00
01:30:58.280 days that occurred later,
01:31:01.200 they started walking
01:31:02.560 back from that and apologizing for it like i didn't know that song was going to be played
01:31:06.160 but they were loving it at the time and i'm just like do it just like hitler like if you like you
01:31:11.420 know what i mean like if you clearly do just admit it but you're you're saying that you don't 0.69
01:31:16.480 because of drama just no one here actually believes in fucking anything no exactly exactly
01:31:22.660 they see they see what we have created over on this side as a you know a field for them to plow 0.96
01:31:30.500 and to harvest, right?
01:31:33.380 So they're coming over here
01:31:34.440 and they'll say whatever they need to say
01:31:35.680 to get the clicks.
01:31:36.560 Even like there's one of them there
01:31:37.640 where at the beginning of the documentary
01:31:39.660 where they brought a guy over on false pretenses 0.99
01:31:43.080 by making up some random shit 0.97
01:31:44.600 and then they just, 1.00
01:31:45.480 they beat him up on camera.
01:31:47.320 But because that's illegal,
01:31:48.520 they immediately deleted the video.
01:31:50.020 Now, not before they got a bunch of followers out of it,
01:31:51.880 but they deleted the video. 1.00
01:31:52.880 It's the same shit. 1.00
01:31:54.200 It's literally the same thing. 1.00
01:31:55.540 They don't like us.
01:31:56.660 They don't like you.
01:31:57.780 They're not on your side.
01:31:58.800 They just know that there are a bunch of people
01:32:00.120 clamoring for this content so they make it and then disavow it the next day but by then they've 0.95
01:32:04.740 already got the fucking followers and they've made their money being around these people it's and 0.89
01:32:10.020 there's other groups and individuals that are like them it feels like watching the sunrise or the the 1.00
01:32:17.020 moon rise and the moon set i don't know if that's what you call that but the moon is screaming fuck 0.99
01:32:23.860 you at you the entire time but what i'm saying is like we have our positions and our beliefs and 0.98
01:32:29.260 we're just here but it seems that every so often a group comes in and they say hey hey how's it 1.00
01:32:36.660 going i love what you're doing here but at the time they leave it's like fuck you die like a 0.99
01:32:40.320 lot of these people who got into conspiracies and then they got into trump and they start they 0.99
01:32:45.960 they start liking us and they call us panicans on the way out like we're we're traitors to trump
01:32:52.320 and i've i haven't changed a single thing you guys have just gotten more bizarrely radical
01:32:58.420 over the brief time that i've known you so you got these guys who get into conspiracy theories and 0.99
01:33:04.560 by the time by the time they're kind of on their way out they're telling me to go fuck myself 0.77
01:33:09.360 because there's they're saying that the like mud flood is long housed like what like what 0.93
01:33:15.840 you you're actually just arguing by the time you're leaving this space you're arguing with
01:33:21.960 an earlier version of yourself
01:33:23.780 but I'm just like I'm here
01:33:26.160 immovable watching
01:33:28.140 you pass through pass
01:33:30.100 by overhead becoming an
01:33:32.080 enemy to yourself in real time but screaming
01:33:34.040 at me the entire time so I'm watching
01:33:35.940 Sneego come by who any of these guys like
01:33:38.080 within a couple years like Andrew Tate
01:33:40.120 like denounce how many people are going to end up
01:33:42.000 denouncing the right how many people are going
01:33:44.120 to end up denouncing the people
01:33:46.080 that they were vampiring
01:33:48.440 the energy off of and I'm just
01:33:50.040 i'm i'm unsurprised i'm unimpressed i'm moisturized i'm hydrated i'm in my lane
01:33:57.320 go ahead bye i i introduced myself by saying goodbye to these people
01:34:04.280 like you're not i i can just tell you're you're new you're excited but you're gonna find a reason
01:34:10.280 why like we're insufficient or you're not used to people believing in things you're used to people
01:34:17.640 having advantageous positions you're used to people like saying things to get clout but like
01:34:25.360 it's weird for them to believe to understand that there's real people that have real beliefs
01:34:30.760 and i've spoken to these individuals before because people use the word based a lot i don't
01:34:35.920 like the word based and i've met a few people like this where you know they they think that
01:34:42.500 they can make anti-white slurs they can start calling white people goys or something like that 0.99
01:34:50.040 or you know things like that white women fuck dogs and stuff like that and i take offense to 1.00
01:34:55.160 that and they'll say to me thimes but you you i've heard you say all kinds of slurs i've heard you 1.00
01:35:00.980 say these real edgy things in your show and i say you mistake me i i say these things because i
01:35:08.500 believe them i don't say these things because i'm edgy i say these things because i'm insane
01:35:13.880 i say these things because i i truly believe a handful of radical things and that but that
01:35:20.580 doesn't mean i believe every radical position that's an interesting thing to say like i never 0.96
01:35:25.180 even thought of it that way but these people it's kind of a it's a fuck i forgot the uh shibboleth 0.99
01:35:31.800 we're the ones who will use nigger but in the same sentence they have to call white people goy 0.99
01:35:36.280 it's like yeah because you're only doing this because you're an edgelord and you like anything 0.99
01:35:42.040 that's transgressive you grab onto it with both hands we're saying nigger because we think blacks 1.00
01:35:47.560 are subhuman and we want them out of our society we hate black people that's why we use the n-word 1.00
01:35:54.320 because we hate black people you're just using it because it's like being christian in the 1980s 1.00
01:36:00.160 it's like a thing to piss your mom yeah you're doing it like a girl who wears a che Guevara 0.99
01:36:05.200 shirt right that's you yeah you you just received the signal from society that this is transgressive 0.70
01:36:12.580 you're doing a transgressive thing and you're excited being transgressive i'm just saying what
01:36:17.420 i believe and you you you haven't encountered someone like me you don't i i don't make sense
01:36:23.760 to you that i can be radical and extreme in these domains over here but not all of them i didn't
01:36:29.520 know you could do that i'm like well welcome to this space that there's people who actually believe
01:36:35.060 pretty outlandish things but that you need to believe outlandish things given where we're at
01:36:41.400 and where we want to be my culture is not your costume yeah my basically i hate to say it like
01:36:47.260 that but there's so many people who are here just as you know donning they they love the word based
01:36:54.840 for this reason good good for us though that we've generated such a uh tourism industry you
01:37:00.960 know yeah you know you're doing it right when people are coming and trying to exploit i've
01:37:07.760 never felt more mexican i'm looking at these tourists like the way mexicans look at the 0.88
01:37:14.400 tourists like you just you want to see them hanging headless from the side of a cliff i should be i 0.58
01:37:20.580 should be like i should be european i should be oh we love we love we love your money we love your 1.00
01:37:26.320 you're women
01:37:28.620 why can't we just be Italians
01:37:31.240 the dissident right is part of
01:37:32.900 and we gotta figure out who's the
01:37:34.660 cartel, who's gonna be our cartel
01:37:37.580 who's gonna hang the tourists 0.97
01:37:38.780 we could be like Mexicans, we could just be 1.00
01:37:40.780 fucking all the broads that come through 1.00
01:37:42.880 instead, we're like 1.00
01:37:44.980 the Mexicans, we wanna make a 1.00
01:37:46.940 ritual sacrifice out of everyone 1.00

01:39:47.660 like i understand like i don't know if there's a narrative but i'm like i like
01:39:51.560 it's a vibe okay this is this is the stuff that juice has said to me over the years like no it's
01:39:58.140 good it's good so i wanted to cover we only cover this very very briefly but it kind of pertains to
01:40:07.200 what we were saying before i i don't really like this book that much um it was written by one of
01:40:15.520 the leaders of the flq and if people like to know more about this the last vanguardist journal
01:40:21.840 article that i published was just about this it was bringing together the stuff we cover the ira
01:40:28.480 and then the flq the title is an investigation into two violent nationalisms subheading the
01:40:35.280 exciting frontiers of collapse and contrasting the ira and the flq that's kind of what we've
01:40:39.600 been doing on the show over the past few episodes comparing these two similar movements and the
01:40:45.040 enigmatic figures at the center of them and uh there's been a couple leaders the flq and the
01:40:51.120 flq took place in a much shorter amount of time obviously the ira has been going on for it it
01:40:58.560 still kind of exists i believe but it had many many many decades to build itself up and flq was
01:41:05.520 relatively shorter so their leadership i'd say the main one of the main ones was pierre
01:41:12.640 valier now i i don't know if i'm pronouncing it right i'm pretty sure it's pierre valier
01:41:19.920 now this was a guy i had an image of him in my mind when i first heard him then i saw a photo of him 0.83
01:41:25.440 and he he looks like a real dump of you see this guy here he's he is he is fat he has got the 0.95
01:41:33.840 the Montreal hair. 0.97
01:41:36.020 This was him in 1989.
01:41:38.540 Interesting guy.
01:41:40.440 This is his autobiography.
01:41:42.180 You know what, though?
01:41:43.320 That's my phenotype.
01:41:44.400 I look more like that guy every day.
01:41:46.980 That's going to be me in about 10 years.
01:41:48.560 Yeah, you know what?
01:41:49.780 I don't look at him and see a revolutionary,
01:41:53.400 but I do see an honest man. 0.93
01:41:56.140 However, he did become a gay man later in life. 1.00
01:42:00.100 Oh, no! 1.00
01:42:02.740 He did.
01:42:03.840 After the FLQ, he came out as gay and spent the remainder of his life advocating for LGBT rights, as well as Aboriginal rights. 0.99
01:42:12.780 Damn. 0.99
01:42:13.220 And denounced violence and whatnot. 1.00
01:42:15.140 Of course. 0.97
01:42:15.760 He became a professional gay man.
01:42:17.760 That is a self-own on your part. 0.76
01:42:19.780 Everybody heard it.
01:42:21.180 Yep.
01:42:23.120 So, he wrote an autobiography while he was in jail, very briefly.
01:42:28.680 I think he was in prison for maybe four months.
01:42:30.740 and it was for the killing of a woman
01:42:34.680 and we'll get into that in just a minute
01:42:37.040 but he dictated an autobiography 0.98
01:42:40.040 by the name of White Niggers of America 0.98
01:42:43.340 and so 0.90
01:42:45.440 someone forwarded me this, they sent me the PDF and said
01:42:48.920 you gotta cover this and with a title like that
01:42:52.040 you would think it's written for us 0.97
01:42:54.700 White Niggers of America, that's the story of Blood Satellite 0.99
01:42:59.520 you're not even american if someone saw that and said i saw this and thought of you 1.00
01:43:06.480 white niggers of america that is that's like the story of blood satellite if we are 0.97
01:43:12.080 so uh blessed to tell the tale one day but it's his life story not only his history in the flq but 0.99
01:43:18.980 his early years as well and you learn a lot about this guy um especially from his position as an
01:43:27.780 avowed marxist and he was one of two individuals who didn't start the flq but got involved later
01:43:35.540 on and formed what i believe to be the intellectual core of the group because remember the flq
01:43:42.420 the front deliberation de quebec did not start off as a marcus organization it was just a quebec
01:43:48.660 separatist organization then it became about creating a worker state and attacking capitalism
01:43:54.500 him and what's interesting about him is like so i made a comment just the other day about um
01:44:01.220 on the last real secret coffee hours episode i reviewed uh a piece written in jacuse by bronze
01:44:08.800 age pervert and i was setting it up and i said just at the outset reading costan alamaru's work
01:44:17.480 is it's not like reading a leftist's work he's not a leftist but when you read a leftist's work 0.92
01:44:22.960 it's every line so often is just bullshit and i said he is kind of a leftist i mean he advocates 0.99
01:44:30.880 for gay child sex and i mean he's a little bit of a leftist yeah well is that leftist or is that 1.00
01:44:37.180 just his the jewish name oh it's jewish that's true is it leftist is it jew i you know you're 1.00
01:44:42.400 splitting hairs yeah you're splitting um we're spilling four skins here
01:44:47.660 but um the idea was like every assertion is a confession that so much of their worldview is
01:44:57.420 can be explained anecdotally and they will assert that the same can be said of you if you're on the
01:45:04.060 right they they'll say who hurt you you know is it just because you personally went through some
01:45:09.500 trauma but that's how they understand their ideology that's how they understand the world
01:45:14.420 it's always based on sort of like a narcissism like that this is this is my story and i've
01:45:20.620 universalized and you actually don't my truth yeah and so his like i'm just gonna i'll explain
01:45:27.500 that at the top in case we don't get to it because we need to get going soon but uh it was so
01:45:33.480 interesting how much of his life was based on the resentment of his own people and this is in his
01:45:41.600 own words where he was saying that his entire his family living in quebec dirt poor right he's one
01:45:48.640 of many children and he wasn't even complaining about that he was complaining about how religious 0.97
01:45:54.640 his mother is they thought that was stupid and he just thought that everyone in his family was 0.98
01:45:59.120 unambitious and boring just boring people and then he also thought every everybody in quebec was 0.99
01:46:06.080 boring because he hated religion he hated christianity hated catholicism specifically
01:46:12.080 and like many marxists he was just confused and frustrated why no one else wanted to be a marxist 0.99
01:46:18.960 but how his marxism was grounded in him just thinking everyone is stupid but him 0.93
01:46:26.080 and you need to just deconstruct everything in society that was it it probably wasn't even 0.97
01:46:32.000 an economic critique you know he'll say we need a worker's state just because i hate the current
01:46:38.320 state and this is the only thing i think to replace it with and then so so much of his early
01:46:43.520 story was saying quebec sucks and the quebecois suck and then so he goes to france he lives in
01:46:49.920 paris and outside of paris for a while and he returns back to quebec because as it turns out 0.98
01:46:56.320 everyone in france sucks everyone in paris is boring right and he's just come and then he asks 0.95
01:47:03.440 his parents who we think are lame losers to pay for him to come back like his whole story is just 1.00
01:47:10.320 this sniveling twerp this little faggot you know like i like i hate this guy his entire life he's 1.00
01:47:18.560 been just a little yeah and then but no one lived up to his standards even his own country meant his 1.00
01:47:24.240 own kinfolk you know like you can have like the audacity to want the liberation of quebec 0.81
01:47:31.120 while you spend most of your life thinking everyone quebec is trash you know and so i 0.96
01:47:36.160 it's my job to drag them kicking and screaming into deconstructing the catholic church and 0.92
01:47:42.560 politics and all the culture because the culture just didn't entice it like you know to 0.80
01:47:48.320 to to put the people on your back while disliking the people that happens so often in marxism
01:47:57.200 to this day anyway what do you i'm giving you an overview of this guy this is my take on him i mean
01:48:04.800 look man it's reasonable that's pretty much uh that's what he is and he gets early on like 0.84
01:48:11.120 like why nigger good question he explains that um i don't it's just it's just funny because you're 0.99
01:48:20.760 saying at the beginning that like these people they really just like admit to their conceit or 0.98
01:48:25.100 at the beginning of the thing is like yes am i a nigger yes i am let me explain to you why i'm a 0.94
01:48:30.960 nigger like you are a nigger not only i agree with you not only does he call he calls we he 0.98
01:48:36.580 says we're niggers and if you dislike people you are a double nigger so like is that a reverse 1.00
01:48:45.020 like a full circle horseshoe nigger he opens the autobiography by saying that he dictated 0.98
01:48:51.460 this in prison very hastily so it might not be good 0.97
01:48:54.300 hey that's that's such a white man admission though it's like i was i was in a rush this 0.96
01:49:03.640 might have you're gonna hate it i know but here it is anyway so he says here to be a nigger in 0.98
01:49:09.920 america by which he means north america is to be not a man but someone's slave for the rich white 0.98
01:49:17.880 man of yankee america the nigger is the sub man and it's more to say that he doesn't see the 0.99
01:49:23.320 quebecois white like the white man is sort of the anglo i said white racism hides the reality from 0.99
01:49:30.440 them by giving them the opportunity to despise the inferior to crush him mentally or to pity him 0.99
01:49:35.460 but the poor whites who despise the black man are doubly niggers for they are victims of one 0.99
01:49:41.060 more form of alienation racism which far from liberating them imprisons them in quebec the 0.98
01:49:47.060 french canadians are not subject to this irrational racism that has done so much wrong to the workers
01:49:51.960 white and black of the united states um i'm not sure about that but they can take no credit for
01:49:58.000 that since in quebec there is no quote black problem the liberation struggle launched by
01:50:03.600 the american blacks nevertheless arouses growing interest among the french canadian population 0.97
01:50:09.080 um and so he starts off by saying we're all niggers and maybe we should look towards black 0.92
01:50:16.840 nationalism as inspiration he says here black nationalism like french canadian separatism 0.97
01:50:23.220 is of inestimable service to revolutionaries
01:50:26.680 and that it forces them to envisage the liberation of the whole man
01:50:30.320 and enables them to avoid the trap of half-revolutions,
01:50:33.700 which, as soon as they're victorious,
01:50:35.640 change into the oppression of racial, linguistic, religious, or other minorities.
01:50:40.140 Which is an interesting way of looking at it,
01:50:42.020 saying that so often have these revolutions betrayed the people
01:50:46.900 that they were in service of.
01:50:48.640 I'm like, yeah, fancy that.
01:50:51.160 He says, Black nationalism and Quebec separatism are, again, teaching people how much is demanded by a true respect for men and the equality of natural and historical differences. 1.00
01:51:01.540 Their enemies cannot be, quote, dirty niggers because they are those dirty niggers. 1.00
01:51:06.740 So within the first 20 pages, he's called the Quebecois double dirty niggers. 1.00
01:51:13.640 And you wonder why this maybe didn't have a much wider audience. 0.99
01:51:21.160 He says, one with them in revolution of man and by man in the grand event that will sweep away the decay of the old system
01:51:27.340 and prepare all humanity, that is all men, to begin a new history without masters or slaves, without war or racism, without banks and thieves.
01:51:37.520 So from the outset, he's very clear at the beginning that he sees racism as a white man invention, but that they are not white men.
01:51:45.300 it's he's present there's two enemies in this and this is why it's so interesting to contrast them
01:51:51.620 against the ira because in both the ira and flq it's the english as the enemy it's the british so
01:51:57.700 he sees the anglos in canada as just extensions of britain and so he sees all of america also
01:52:04.420 as essentially britain as well and so but he says american influence as well as british influence
01:52:12.100 are the problem in quebec and to his credit what i liked is that he spent some time exploring the
01:52:21.140 history of quebec and there's certainly an editorial tilt to this but and he highlights
01:52:28.260 certain aspects that will you know endorse his marxist take about the workers versus capital but
01:52:35.540 But there are historical narratives that capture that essence, like the idea of workers being oppressed by an abusive, you know, coalition of employers.
01:52:48.680 There were company towns. This did happen. There's certain historical instances that inspired Marxism.
01:52:56.580 I was trying to keep that in mind that anyway, not to say that I agree with them, but there were peasant revolts for a reason.
01:53:04.520 and he says here our ancestors came here with the hope of beginning a new life they were for the
01:53:09.880 most part soldiers or day laborers the soldiers came a long time after champlain to fight the
01:53:15.660 english and they remained in new france because they did not have the money to return to the
01:53:20.760 metropolitan country the others came as volunteers especially under the talon administration about a
01:53:27.320 century before the English conquest. They were unskilled laborers who could find no work
01:53:33.800 in France and no reason for living. And he paints a picture of when the prisons of the
01:53:39.840 metropolitan country, meaning France, meaning Paris, were filled to overflowing and people
01:53:44.660 were growing a little too restless. The hotheads were often exiled to the colonies instead of being
01:53:49.420 hanged. It was more humane. Periodically, the strongest prisoners were freed to be turned into
01:53:55.380 mercenaries or colonists the volunteers destitute disappointed prisoners of their poverty resigned
01:54:01.940 themselves to clearing an ungrateful soil on the seniorities granted by the king of france
01:54:07.860 they had to become hunters fishermen and woodsmen in order to feed their numerous children
01:54:12.900 in 1689 there were 10 000 french canadians in new france the fur trade was monopolized by a
01:54:20.740 few french merchants the french of france as they were already beginning to be called by the habitants
01:54:26.500 and the habitants was a name that they sort of gave themselves for the the quebecers of quebec
01:54:32.900 the people who are of that place and they weren't one foot in one foot out um then the habitants
01:54:39.140 hated them the towns of the colony like those in the metropolitan country overflowed with hungry
01:54:44.340 idle men he's drawing parallels between the french revolution and what could have been
01:54:50.660 a quebec revolution as well and there was something like that that took place
01:54:55.700 um then he goes on to explain how the english merchants took over from the french merchants
01:55:01.220 who before surrendering the colony to the english had a time to effect a some profitable sale of
01:55:07.460 arms the conquerors had no gift difficulty in gaining collaboration of the clergy and those
01:55:12.420 impoverished seniors but remained in the colony despite the defeat so he's telling the story of
01:55:18.100 kind of like what we are saying with the history of canada being sold out to america he he feels
01:55:24.180 that the clergy the church in quebec as well as the business class sold out their interest to
01:55:32.420 the english because english influence obviously poured over both from the west and from the south
01:55:39.700 that would be upper canada and then through america um it continues on here since 1760
01:55:47.460 the british and their english canadian agents have monopolized the trade in furs and wheat
01:55:52.500 and have been the sole beneficiaries of the sale of english products on the canadian market as well
01:55:57.620 as the export of canadian raw materials these capitalists anxious to preserve the social peace
01:56:03.540 that had been regained began to buy the services of a few quebecois lawyers and by giving them
01:56:08.740 prestigious post to co-op them into their companies and into political parties whose
01:56:13.540 machines they had controlled from the beginning so again he's telling the story of english influence
01:56:19.540 buying off the quebec and to the point i was making before i believe these things happened
01:56:26.020 i believe that he's telling the truth when he talks about like there was subversion occurring
01:56:31.940 now he takes this and builds a marxist case out of it um but it's not based on nothing it's not
01:56:40.500 based on you know the story of who populated quebec and the english attempts and the american
01:56:47.220 attempts for that matter to invade quebec to bring quebec under their dominion and he just feels that
01:56:54.020 quebec has been given the short end of the stick now you can agree or disagree with that but
01:56:57.700 but I don't think he's mostly even wrong.
01:57:03.980 I think he's mostly correct in his historical assessment.
01:57:07.860 I don't know if you had any.
01:57:09.220 Do you have any thoughts on Quebec history at all?
01:57:11.800 No.
01:57:12.240 Look, I'm not an expert on it, obviously.
01:57:13.980 That actually seems correct.
01:57:15.160 It's almost like the guys we were talking about earlier,
01:57:18.500 where I kind of agree with what you're saying.
01:57:20.120 It's just the conclusions you're drawing
01:57:21.360 and the case you're making afterwards, I disagree with.
01:57:24.040 He kind of built into explaining the history of the Quebec people.
01:57:28.200 And he goes on here, he says, while the working and agricultural class is slowly and painfully developing class consciousness, without which no revolution is possible, the Americans are seizing more and more of our national patrimony. 0.67
01:57:41.300 It is estimated that today they control directly or indirectly 80 percent of the economy of Quebec. 0.73
01:57:46.660 by means of an increasing number of long-term loans they capture an ever-growing share of the
01:57:52.120 revenues of the state of quebec in the form of interest and thus hold back any possibility of
01:57:57.140 autonomous development even if quebec gets all the taxes back from ottawa this additional revenue
01:58:02.680 will soon pass into the hands of the americans who constitute the main obstacle to the economic
01:58:07.560 independence of quebec now i hear that and i'm like fair enough like i i do i think that's
01:58:13.880 probably happening quebec is the recipient of i'd say the lion's share of equalization payments
01:58:21.380 so it's not to say that money's just flowing out of quebec there's a lot of money flowing
01:58:26.440 into quebec just to keep it solvent however if we're talking about you know being uh held in
01:58:34.420 in you know loan agreements to america or american interests being smuggled through canadian parties
01:58:40.520 and it could these canadian institutions just being an agent for american interests fair enough
01:58:47.320 but that it would be could you imagine how effective the flq could be if it just made
01:58:55.000 that its main point and it didn't go into like creating a worker state and uh being part of an
01:59:01.240 international revolution like if you just keep kept it focused on that then you would actually
01:59:07.720 get more people on board i think because there's parts of this book where you don't hear a lot of
01:59:13.800 people talking about quebec history like this there's quebec nationalists of course but i don't
01:59:20.280 know it's it's not so often that you see it summarized like this like the case for independence
01:59:29.000 outside like just just hating the english right um yeah and i talk about this in more
01:59:35.240 depth in the vanguard's journal article if you want to check that out um i wanted to just skip
01:59:41.160 ahead and i talk about the history of quebec a bit more in the article so that's why i'm skipping
01:59:45.000 ahead right now but before we go i want to make sure i got to some of his life story here just
01:59:50.380 because i want to get that on the record he says when i was born a year and a half before the second
01:59:54.720 world war there was a growing unrest among the working class of quebec the year before there
01:59:59.200 had been a bloody riots in sorrel and a number of strikes were turning into violence in montreal
02:00:03.820 and the other cities of Quebec
02:00:05.860 he says
02:00:07.480 he starts talking about his father
02:00:10.440 he says we walked for a while without hurrying
02:00:12.740 then my father stopped in front of a little
02:00:14.720 red and white house
02:00:15.940 1199 he murmured this is it
02:00:18.440 a man came out the house to meet us
02:00:20.500 he had a broad toothy smile
02:00:22.160 he had the broad toothy smile of a vegetable
02:00:24.740 dealer who's about to cheat you
02:00:26.700 I didn't like his looks but my father
02:00:28.440 seemed to get on easy with him
02:00:29.920 the man said banal things to me
02:00:32.000 how's it going my little man you go to school you like the country etc i did not answer no 1.00
02:00:38.200 decidedly i did not like that man so just imagine this this like fucking little shit a guy just 0.99
02:00:45.120 being like hey how's it going son and just not answering him i don't like this man i don't like 0.99
02:00:49.820 small talks even the fact that to him storekeeper is an insult it's like his wife looked even more
02:00:56.940 like a storekeeper than him okay so you just hate people that are smiling because they're trying to
02:01:01.680 make a deal with you you hate business look he says he says here i have never liked trade or 1.00
02:01:07.140 tradesmen yeah there you go that's and you're gay so there it is i mean you're and you're a nigger 1.00
02:01:13.860 you so all right for trade divides men into antagonistic groups stimulates the exploitation 1.00
02:01:19.900 of the weak and naive by the strong and the strong and quote smart constantly enriches some
02:01:25.320 and constantly impoverishes like that's just you're talking about you're talking about like
02:01:28.800 he says being a roofer he says in brackets here the weak and naive the pure and the simple 1.00
02:01:34.300 okay so you so this is you again projection right you're a weak naive idiot but because you're weak 1.00
02:01:42.260 and naive and people are always taking advantage of you because you're so fucking dumb and stuck 1.00
02:01:46.320 you're like weak you're pure yeah you just met your dad's friend you're like fuck these people 1.00
02:01:52.920 I hate these guys. 1.00
02:01:54.280 And also fuck people who work with their hands. 1.00
02:01:57.660 What do you like about Quebec? 1.00
02:02:01.560 Sorry, these people need to audition.
02:02:04.160 It's wild that this was the FLQ, too.
02:02:07.700 And this guy was central in the leadership.
02:02:10.540 He was, as we said in the last episode,
02:02:13.500 he was instrumental to writing their second manifesto.
02:02:17.260 So the FLQ hated Quebec, actually.
02:02:20.780 I don't know if they officially did,
02:02:22.140 but he did and that's why he took that the organization predated him by just like a couple
02:02:27.200 of years but he saw that and said oh here's something i could get involved in and i think
02:02:31.820 that all these separatist organizations are at risk of falling under the sway of some other
02:02:38.140 international movement you know you could imagine the alberta separation movement falling under the
02:02:44.480 influence of like the multi-polarity people um i don't think they will because they don't have an
02:02:49.360 ethnic drive right yet and there's a stronger racialist angle in the multi-polarity duganist
02:02:55.580 stuff but it's you know it separation is a political project that is always under threat
02:03:03.380 of becoming an ideological project so it's like if they were just advocating for separatism like you
02:03:08.680 you probably could do a better job than this this international revolution thing and he continues
02:03:15.280 on here let's talk about the mother he says it was not that my mother like duplacis saw the red
02:03:20.400 devil or communism in all forms of social activity no for she was hardly more faithful than my father 0.94
02:03:26.840 to the teachings of the mother of mothers the church in her it was irrational her stubborn
02:03:33.060 opposition to all social and political activity was a kind of neurosis and as such was obscurely
02:03:38.760 rooted in the unconscious probably in the congenial insecurity of the working class 0.97
02:03:43.740 look at him like describing the working class as just these neurotic fools for my mother was not 0.98
02:03:50.460 an exception capitalism and religion have mass-produced mothers like mine and rare are 0.98
02:03:55.920 the quebecois at least in the working class who are at a certain point in their lives have not 0.85
02:04:00.260 been suffocated by the love of a possessive mother look at how he talks about his parents
02:04:06.200 right these parents like have financially supported while being poor all his forays 1.00
02:04:12.880 across the globe to find his people to find probably some new fucking family of cigarette 0.98
02:04:19.120 smoking mimes or whatever he's looking for um anyway we don't we're going over right now and 0.98
02:04:25.820 there's there's not too much to be extracted from this honestly it's really his life story
02:04:32.740 i'll just i'll show the end right there he says i'm one of those political prisoners members of
02:04:37.280 the Front de Libération du Québec, on whom the establishment angrily spews his contempt and fear.
02:04:43.060 Arrested in New York on September 20th, 1966, together with Charles Gagnon,
02:04:49.000 while we were demonstrating in front of the United Nations in order to draw attention
02:04:52.740 of world opinion to the liberation struggle of Quebec,
02:04:56.780 then we were deported illegally to Montreal on January 13th.
02:05:01.100 I waited more than a year for my first trial.
02:05:03.260 at the end of this first trial which lasted six weeks i was condemned in 1968 by judge
02:05:09.660 yves leduc of montreal to life imprisonment having been fraudulently found guilty of
02:05:15.420 manslaughter by the way he did commit manslaughter he was he was participating in making bombs
02:05:19.840 he blew up he blew up a secretary basically um very often during this course of the trial i
02:05:26.100 made a particular effort to unmask the arbitrary nature of the system get this for example on
02:05:31.900 several occasions i reminded the judge of the prosecution that they had publicly committed
02:05:36.460 themselves to judge me as a common law criminal in this instance a common murderer and consequently
02:05:42.060 it was illegal and dishonest to try and have me condemned for murder on the basis of my political
02:05:46.380 writings so he was saying he's like just because i committed murder i just i made a bomb or
02:05:53.900 participated in making a bomb and blew up a lady by accident because they're blowing up a building
02:05:59.660 you shouldn't be able to factor in my writings where i talk about how armed revolution with
02:06:06.880 bombs is what we need to do like your political writings were actually advocating for the thing
02:06:14.760 that you did so you can't try me for murder just because i said i was going to commit murder 1.00
02:06:19.780 like what a fucking idiot yeah and eventually like he didn't spend long in jail he got let out 1.00
02:06:25.960 and then he was he was out and about he was around and uh i don't know i i think 1.00
02:06:33.560 i i don't know what should have happened you know like i guess they they thought he was
02:06:38.920 not as involved in these as he as some of the others that they caught but
02:06:44.040 i don't know i i think he's pretty laughable and i went into this wanting to genuinely understand
02:06:51.160 more about the flq because and i mentioned this in the article quebec separatism still
02:07:00.680 enjoys prominence in quebec it's still on the tip of everyone's tongue it's top of mind
02:07:06.200 more so than independence in ireland i think you know irish independence has receded from relevance
02:07:12.120 but quebec independence it's still ever present yes so there's still something there that's
02:07:18.120 desiring it whatever the flq attempted to accomplish it didn't destroy or nullify or
02:07:25.160 sap the energy from the rest of the sentiment which i think is very interesting and i think
02:07:30.920 even quebec nationalists they probably won't even bring up the flq they would probably talk about
02:07:36.040 louis riel you know they would talk about the stuff that this guy was talking about pulling
02:07:42.040 from deeper in quebec history um because it has a profound understanding of itself and i think
02:07:51.080 you know they have something that other canadian provinces don't have that's why i don't think
02:07:56.680 alberta can really make a case for separation at least not like quebec does because quebec has
02:08:03.240 yeah um they have an appeal to what is the albertan ethnicity there isn't one it's just us
02:08:10.120 And I mean, it's it's us with a little bit of Ukrainian.
02:08:12.660 Like, come on, guys. 0.98
02:08:13.560 And and also, even if look, if they would have to focus on that and they aren't, they're focusing on some like civic nationalist economic bullshit. 0.87
02:08:21.440 So and look, again, I've said so many times I'm I am sympathetic to to the plight of Albertans. 0.96
02:08:27.140 They do get a bad rap. 1.00
02:08:28.600 But this is you're not a fucking nation, dude. 1.00
02:08:31.780 You're not a nation. 1.00
02:08:32.600 I'm sorry.
02:08:34.380 Absolutely.
02:08:35.060 And I think it's more of an economic shakedown.
02:08:37.980 Yeah, yeah, which is which is fine.
02:08:40.000 which is what you should do but i think there's still fertile ground in quebec from what i see
02:08:46.680 or is there or has it just been commoditized that's another question i mean look the truth's
02:08:52.020 in the middle there somewhere yeah anyway so that that's the end of that and i gotta let you go
02:08:58.020 because we've gone over of course it was a good one though buddy it's good to be back good to be
02:09:03.380 back i'd like every episode that we can say it's good to be back yes it's refreshing why not imagine
02:09:09.760 starting every episode with ah well it's every two weeks now yeah it's like oh man it's been
02:09:15.960 so long it's been so long what are we talking about we're talking about lauren southern being 0.99
02:09:20.160 a dumb bitch cool all right i'll talk to you later see you man 1.00
