This podcast is brought to you by Humber River Health Foundation.
00:00:03.680
From the discovery of insulin in 1921 to the promise of universal healthcare in 1966,
00:00:09.500
Canadians have always made healthcare our mission.
00:00:12.340
Now we face our biggest challenge yet, a cure for healthcare.
00:00:15.940
Reduced wait times, safer patients, advancements in technology, the end of hallway medicine.
00:00:21.800
We're finding it all here at Humber River Health.
00:00:30.000
All right, I'm going to just jump right into this because I'm so excited to have you back.
00:00:37.080
Yeah, the last time I did your show, it had a feeling like the next time I do this show,
00:00:43.040
You know, PBD accurately predicted that as well,
00:00:46.080
but he told me that that was his favorite thing to watch was the conversation between me and you.
00:00:51.580
Because we both were just like, you're a massive talent.
00:00:53.680
And it's obvious that you're on your rocket ship, as they say,
00:00:57.320
where people are realizing like, wait, who is this guy?
00:00:59.900
He's just supposed to be a comedian, but he actually knows so much about politics.
00:01:03.360
I promise it's more of a comment on the rest of society than it is on me.
00:01:09.580
I feel about me too, where I'm like, I think all I said was like,
00:01:13.880
Democrats, and then things exploded, and I don't really know why because it wasn't that genius.
00:01:18.080
Well, there's something about it, like, too, that your first, I think, take that really launched into this chapter of your career
00:01:24.640
was just like, I sure do feel bad about all these dead Palestinian babies.
00:01:28.980
And, you know, and then everybody's like, what, do you hate Jewish people?
00:01:31.700
And you're like, okay, that's, that's an, you know, it's Tucker Carlson.
00:01:35.520
By the way, I should say Patrick Bet-David is great.
00:01:37.320
I love that guy, and his whole operation is incredible.
00:01:39.580
But you ever hear the thing Tucker Carlson said?
00:01:42.540
I really liked it, where he said, you know if a wound is infected because you touch it and you recoil.
00:01:48.520
And there's, like, something about that in life in general where you, like, find these infections.
00:01:53.520
It's almost like when you just say something really simple, and then everyone's like, oh, it's like, wait, if that's controversial,
00:02:00.900
And it's almost like that's like, you're like, wait, if you're telling me I feel bad about seeing a dead baby,
00:02:05.900
and that's offensive, then I need to, like, I need to read a lot more about what's going on here,
00:02:13.440
I'm just so curious when I see, and I think another colloquial way to say, is they say it's a hit dog that hollers.
00:02:18.960
Perfect example of that was when I tweeted genocide is always wrong, and Dave Rubin just spazzed.
00:02:24.280
And I just was like, what is happening right now?
00:02:29.000
I wasn't even talking about Israel in that tweet.
00:02:30.320
I was talking about Brian Mass and something that he said in Congress.
00:02:32.320
But the way people responded, the fact that it got, like, 40,000 retweets, and I'm going,
00:02:37.660
this used to be a totally acceptable thing to say that everyone agreed on that we shouldn't be aspiring to genocide,
00:02:43.060
and suddenly it's like this hot topic, and people were covering me all the time.
00:02:47.080
And from that moment on, I was just on the hit list.
00:02:49.560
You know what I'm talking about, the hit list, where you've said a thing, we don't accept the thing,
00:02:54.040
so now we're just going to, I guess, try to psychologically wear you down by writing hit pieces of things that you didn't say
00:03:00.340
to try to convince the general public that you're the crazy one, and we're not just psychopaths that believe in genocide.
00:03:06.560
Yeah, being against genocide shouldn't be too controversial.
00:03:10.700
And you are, I think, obviously, you are right at the heart of it, because you're like me during BLM.
00:03:15.680
I was black, saying common sense, like, hey, I know that there's white people here, but they were never slave owners,
00:03:21.100
and we can't just take all their money and take their jobs and tell them to literally, at one point,
00:03:27.160
they were getting on their hands and knees and cleaning black people's shoes at the height of BLM.
00:03:33.320
And I was against that, and I said, this is kind of crazy.
00:03:35.200
Like, hey, you're now the Jewish person who's saying common sense, like, hey, this is kind of crazy.
00:03:41.900
Like, America shouldn't be pledging allegiance to everything that Israel wants to do,
00:03:47.100
and I think that's what slanted you in some hot water.
00:03:49.460
Well, I think, and there's a lot of parallels there.
00:03:55.240
But I think one of the parallels is also that it's, like, as you were saying with the Black Lives Matter stuff,
00:04:03.640
Like, it's not even just, like, first and foremost, it's not right.
00:04:06.340
But even additionally to that, like, this isn't helping black people any.
00:04:10.320
Some white dude doing some performance ritual of, like, cleaning your shoes or whatever,
00:04:15.020
this doesn't actually do anything for black people.
00:04:16.840
This isn't elevating us to, like, the next level.
00:04:18.820
This isn't, like, getting the black people who are struggling in America out of poverty or something like that.
00:04:25.360
And, in fact, all you're doing, really, is kind of getting, like, privileged black people
00:04:29.660
who were already going to be fine a nicer house.
00:04:36.480
Like, first and foremost, I think what Israel's doing to the Palestinians is wrong.
00:04:40.660
Even, actually, first and foremost, I think it's, my country should not be involved in it
00:04:46.580
But on top of that, after that, I guess, I also don't think this is good for Jewish people.
00:04:51.200
I don't think this is good for Israel and then more broadly for Jewish people.
00:04:54.780
I think this is creating a whole lot of resentment against them.
00:04:58.120
It's actually, like, this kind of sick, self-fulfilling prophecy where you are creating the conditions
00:05:05.080
where actually something really bad could happen.
00:05:10.660
I was just, like, if you think that because people are pretending to like you because they're
00:05:14.640
fearful of losing their jobs, that means they really like you.
00:05:21.240
And I think that I want to work with this person because they're hardworking, because they're
00:05:24.880
intelligent, when they know that basically they got thugged into this, what do you think
00:05:30.800
What do you think they're actually saying about you behind closed doors?
00:05:32.720
I don't want people to look at me and think that everywhere that I am, it's simply because
00:05:36.100
BLM went crazy following George Floyd and they're just terrified to lose their jobs.
00:05:40.000
And so they're just sort of subjecting themselves to this harassment.
00:05:43.920
Because at a certain point, BLM just became a full throttle harassment of white people in every
00:05:48.800
And it is interesting because I recognized that the people that were responding initially
00:05:54.440
to the George Floyd thing were doing so out of a, what I describe as a childhood trigger.
00:05:59.880
I think a lot of the things that we've been conditioned and a lot of our responses are due
00:06:04.340
to childhood traumas that are happening in the classroom.
00:06:06.900
So they've got us public school system, you know, Jimmy Carter kind of signed in the Department
00:06:13.960
And at that very moment, they were like, okay, now we can propaganda, propagandize these kids
00:06:20.280
They don't even realize the triggers when they become adults.
00:06:22.420
And so for black people, we are learning without us even realizing it, that slavery, you know,
00:06:27.380
slavery, slavery, slavery, um, racism is like the worst even that could possibly exist.
00:06:31.660
Think about, you go through this emotional conditioning.
00:06:35.340
So it becomes very easy when people who want to achieve power that just go, Hey, black America,
00:06:43.820
Like it's so, it's such a ridiculous thing, a ridiculous notion that in 2020, had Trump
00:06:49.460
had been elected that 2016 party, had he had been elected, we would go back and change.
00:06:53.740
But the majority of black Americans legitimately believe this because the media was insisting
00:06:57.200
And then we had this childhood trauma, Jewish Americans, it's the Holocaust, right?
00:07:00.400
It's like, we spend a lot of time studying the Holocaust and it's actually a trigger for
00:07:06.300
And I saw this happening where instantly, whatever happened in Israel, the first thing that was
00:07:14.680
No, I mean, when I was, uh, when I debated Dennis Prager for, uh, that Zero Hedge, uh,
00:07:19.860
debate, there was one point where he was, uh, and I don't know if you could capture this
00:07:24.180
on video, but I was only like a few feet away from him, but there was one point where he
00:07:27.740
was talking about Jew hatred and how it's a different virus than everything else.
00:07:31.960
And he was like, get his eyes were getting watery.
00:07:39.320
I almost wanted to like put my arm around him and be like, Hey man, like none of this
00:07:47.220
Like there's not about to be another Holocaust.
00:07:49.960
And there is like this deep rooted trauma that like gets passed on through generations where
00:07:56.440
it's like this real belief that this could happen at any moment.
00:08:00.040
And I just don't, you know, I was, uh, somebody on, on Twitter told me recently the other day
00:08:05.100
that they said, um, they go 20% of Americans want to see Jewish people exterminated and they
00:08:13.240
go, they'll never say that, but about 20%, which first off kind of begs the question of
00:08:17.660
like, well, how did you scientifically arrive at this number of 20?
00:08:21.160
Like if they won't say that, how do you just know?
00:08:25.560
Like even, listen, even amongst like people who do hate Jews, like even like, think of
00:08:32.800
like whatever it is, whoever the person on, on Twitter, who you're like, that guy really
00:08:36.120
does hate Jews, even amongst his following, it's not 20% who actually want to see Jews
00:08:44.280
20% of the broader American people that, but imagine if you're living in a world in your
00:08:50.040
mind where you think 20% of our society wants to see you and your kids.
00:08:58.120
I mean, you're going to make, you're going to make different calculations than if you're
00:09:04.440
And then that's also being reinforced by the media.
00:09:06.480
So it's like, if you have that trauma coming up and then you're going, oh my gosh, could
00:09:09.900
And then the media is like, yes, you are going to be in chains.
00:09:12.760
That, that little feeling you had is completely valid.
00:09:16.800
The MAGA people want to bring back the slave boats and they want to, you to be picking cotton
00:09:24.020
It's an absurd notion, but people believe it because they are naturally emotional because
00:09:32.000
And then when you couple that with the media, that's why I think the most important thing
00:09:35.700
for people to learn about is the fact that you had people like Edward Bernays who were
00:09:41.480
seeing how you could experiment, the nephew of Sigmund Freud, how you could experiment and
00:09:46.500
how psychology could become this tool to modify human behavior.
00:09:50.580
That you could get people to quite literally not believe their own eyes.
00:09:54.660
Like if you say something enough, they will become irrational.
00:09:57.980
Like they will say, even though I'm objectively looking at Candace Owens, I need to believe
00:10:04.100
now that she is an internalized hating black person bigot and that she's not really black
00:10:10.940
rather than to think that maybe she just doesn't agree with what BLM is doing.
00:10:14.980
Well, that's why Bernays is such a fascinating figure, because it's like that the connection
00:10:19.820
between like marketing and propaganda and how it all works on our subconscious and our
00:10:27.560
But like if you just think about the fact that, you know, when they'll say like what it costs
00:10:33.000
to have a billboard in Times Square or, you know, like some huge Coca-Cola billboard and
00:10:37.200
they'll be like, that's, you know, $300 million to have that all year long.
00:10:40.680
What's crazy is that that's worth it to Coca-Cola.
00:10:43.820
Like it's worth it to pay whatever the number is, you know what I mean?
00:10:47.040
Like insane amounts of money just to have a huge Coca-Cola billboard at the top of Times
00:10:52.120
Square because in all of our, you know, monkey brains that goes like legitimacy.
00:10:57.920
I mean, look, they're up there in these big lights and that's worth it to them to pay.
00:11:02.520
And so you just notice this in general with like, like what you were talking about with
00:11:05.860
people who come up in public schools and the way they're propagandized, it's like they're
00:11:10.540
taught to, you know, like when they accuse people of, um, dog whistles, like they're taught
00:11:18.320
to hear dog whistles that that person is not even whistling, right?
00:11:23.360
That person might, you know, like make America great again.
00:11:25.560
Well, you know what that means, you know, when America was great, you know what they're
00:11:28.760
saying, they're saying enslave you, even though that was never set.
00:11:33.120
Like if I, if I were to go and give a talk at a college campus, which I never will, but
00:11:39.160
let's just say hypothetically, I was invited to go talk to like regular liberal arts college
00:11:43.940
I mean, they're so it's not that they would hear my argument and then say, no,
00:11:48.240
look, we have a counter argument that we disagree with you.
00:11:51.720
It's that they'd hear what I say and they'd immediately know in their soul that what I'm
00:11:57.240
really trying to say is that I'm a terrible person.
00:12:01.680
Like they're trained to already dismiss your argument before you can even make your argument
00:12:08.260
You know, if you say, if you say blacks instead of, you know, African-Americans or whatever,
00:12:15.080
If you were, if you say something like it, you know, whatever the argument might be, you
00:12:20.300
can't even get to that argument because they're already trained to be like, you know, this
00:12:24.360
Pavlonian like trick of like, nope, I, I already know you're a bad person.
00:12:30.840
And what's so interesting is that these are Soviet tools.
00:12:33.380
And the reason why they do target the youth is because you're naturally more inclined to
00:12:38.060
Like you think about your high school relationship for most people versus like the person that you
00:12:41.340
marry, like when you are young, it is just raw emotion at all times.
00:12:45.540
Everything is that you're perceiving as a reality is a lot, a lot of times just your
00:12:51.300
And so they even program, they think carefully about what books they even want you to read
00:12:55.700
at a certain age, because it will leave an indelible mark on you.
00:12:58.320
It will leave an indelible mark on your childhood to read something that's so horrific.
00:13:01.000
And you actually don't even know what the facts are.
00:13:03.500
You just know how you felt when you read something.
00:13:05.920
And again, that will eventually elicit a response because everything is political at the end
00:13:11.380
They're doing that intentionally to train children to believe in certain concepts, to disbelieve
00:13:17.920
Even when the concepts are obscure, we need you to react.
00:13:20.480
So we're just going to somehow say that this thing that is racist is not, that this thing
00:13:25.820
Something that's so rational, which is like, hey, it's obviously not acceptable, which was
00:13:29.760
a weird moment when you were debating Ami, when I was like, would it be acceptable if
00:13:34.380
Bibi Netanyahu killed every last Palestinian to get to Hamas?
00:13:38.600
And he just couldn't instantly say, no, that wouldn't be acceptable.
00:13:44.680
He got there, I think, once I kind of said to him, like, that makes me very uncomfortable.
00:13:48.600
But you see where he's got to, like, almost check in his own mind.
00:13:51.380
He's like, wait, cannot, would this, you know, like, what are the implications of me saying
00:13:56.160
And then eventually to get, whereas this should just be like a knee jerk, obviously, that's
00:14:02.680
But then you almost have to wonder, like, well, what's the implication of that?
00:14:06.700
It's really, I mean, essentially it's a reducto absurdum, right?
00:14:10.020
That you're saying like, okay, well, what if we took this logic all the way to its conclusion?
00:14:15.120
And in the same sense of like, if somebody's like, hey, we should raise the minimum wage
00:14:19.460
to $25 an hour or something, you're like, well, how about $1,000 an hour?
00:14:24.060
And then, and it's not that that disproves 25, but at least if someone goes, no, well, that
00:14:28.740
You go, okay, so you admit that there's a certain point where you'd have to say this
00:14:33.600
So now let's talk about, but the problem is that I think a lot of people who are all in
00:14:39.600
on this one side, they recognize that as soon as they concede that, then it's like, oh,
00:14:45.840
And I might have to concede that there's a real moral problem with just killing tens of
00:14:51.800
Even if we haven't killed 2 million, it's like, oh, that might be.
00:14:55.600
And so people are very hesitant to want to give you that because they think there might
00:14:59.780
be an implication to their own, which of course there is, you know, which like the implication
00:15:03.620
is basically that like, yeah, killing innocent people is wrong and you don't want to be on
00:15:08.220
But it is, it's kind of laid bare when you could ask someone like, okay, so you're telling
00:15:15.040
me you could kill every last Palestinian and there'd be no moral issue with that.
00:15:18.820
And if you even have to hesitate before you answer that, like you got some problems with
00:15:24.260
And that is really where I've arrived at, whereas people do have problems with their
00:15:27.480
moral foundations, which is why they have to come up with these words.
00:15:30.360
They have to always come up with these terms to describe people who are quite moral.
00:15:34.320
Like, I don't believe that we are justified in murdering a million Iraqi civilians looking
00:15:39.840
for weapons of mass destruction that never existed.
00:15:44.140
Every time they want to go to war, they're kind of saying the same stuff over and over again.
00:15:46.480
I just, I just saw what's his face in an interview saying like, well, you know, Iran, they've
00:15:50.680
got nuclear, you know, they, they are really close.
00:15:53.500
I'm like, didn't we already run this with Iraq?
00:15:55.960
And didn't you already tell us that we had to do this, like BB speech, like we've, we've
00:16:01.580
Didn't actually objectively tell me one thing that's gotten better in America since 9-11,
00:16:06.820
2001, because that's where they always like, this is, this is 12, 9-11, whatever it is.
00:16:10.700
Tell me one thing that got better, safer or freer in America since we decided that we were
00:16:15.480
going to go to war in the Middle East perpetually.
00:16:21.440
And it's why it's so important to teach people real history and not what they're learning in
00:16:24.960
their school, because America is not only a young country, but we're becoming younger
00:16:28.540
in our minds because we're not even learning American history correctly.
00:16:31.580
We're being lied to about American history, McCarthyism, you know, the Spanish Inquisition,
00:16:35.740
everything that we're learning is actually a lie.
00:16:38.140
But what happens is that when you keep that mindset so young and you don't have a memory
00:16:44.200
And this conversation I have with my husband, actually, is something that always stays with
00:16:47.060
me, because I said, China, you got a country, what is it now, 1.7 billion people, a crazy
00:16:55.200
You've got so many of these people and the government is so small.
00:16:57.940
I go, why won't they just revolt against the government?
00:17:00.160
And George said to me, because they have no memory of freedom.
00:17:08.100
I don't remember that you used to just be allowed to walk onto the plane.
00:17:13.500
You didn't have to take your belt off your shoes.
00:17:15.160
You could just go onto the plane, greet people at the gate.
00:17:21.460
It's like to Gen Z, because, you know, you ever watch like any of those old rom-coms where
00:17:26.140
they would always run up to the gate of the plane?
00:17:29.460
You could just chase your high school sweetheart all the way right up to her flight and then,
00:17:35.440
No, look, I mean, the country that I grew up in, I was born in 1983.
00:17:40.520
So like I was a little kid in the 80s and then like a kid in the 90s.
00:17:45.620
And it's, it's, it's really sad because it was a much better country in a lot of ways.
00:17:51.240
But there's freer because the problem was like, oh, hey, we got to do that because we
00:17:54.980
got to keep bombing the Middle East because you're for your safety and for your freedom.
00:17:58.980
And I'm like, I think by every metric, we're less safe.
00:18:01.640
You're looking at like just crime rates and we're less free.
00:18:04.900
Well, there was a regional expert who testified before Congress in 2002.
00:18:11.020
And he said that he guaranteed, and this is a regional expert, he guaranteed that if we
00:18:16.320
overthrew Saddam Hussein, there would be massive positive reverberations throughout the region.
00:18:23.040
I don't know if you've heard of him, but he's a regional expert.
00:18:27.040
I mean, it's going to happen at some point, but it may have taken a little more time.
00:18:30.760
First, they thought it was Iraq, but then he testified also that it was, if we did it
00:18:41.220
He always wanted us to overthrow Iran, but he's still on that one because we did his other,
00:18:47.880
And then America is going to be so much freer and so much safer, and gas prices are going
00:18:51.500
to be low, and the roads are going to be paved, and we're going to be able to just get onto
00:18:56.440
Why does it feel like we're just being lied to?
00:18:58.900
And so the question then becomes for me and everyone who's logically thinking through this
00:19:02.820
and realizing that our country is in full decline, which country is getting better?
00:19:06.780
Because it's not ours because of these never-ending wars that we keep not winning, by the way.
00:19:14.340
So what actually is the point of these wars in your view?
00:19:18.620
Well, I mean, I think, okay, so there's, a lot of times there's kind of like, there'll
00:19:25.900
be a core group of people who actually do have like a real ideology, but the reason why that
00:19:31.260
ideology gets picked up in D.C. is because it's very good for business.
00:19:36.700
You know, like in, and not just in D.C., in academia and throughout like kind of the
00:19:42.720
establishment, there's people like, uh, like Keynes or, um, John Rawls or someone like
00:19:57.140
I mean, if you, you know, if you like sat down, like Keynes and then you, you like put
00:20:02.820
Thomas Sowell up against him, he'll just like utterly dismantle his arguments.
00:20:08.120
Or you like someone who's more of like a monetary theorist guy, but like, you know, if you read
00:20:12.140
Hayek versus Keynes, there's no way you could think Keynes was like a better economist.
00:20:16.800
But what Keynes prescribes is that D.C. ought to have a whole lot of power.
00:20:22.560
And what, you know, Thomas Sowell is prescribing is that they ought to have much less power than
00:20:28.440
So who do you think is more popular in D.C., you know?
00:20:31.440
And so there might be some true believing Keynesians, but that's not necessarily why everyone
00:20:38.360
So with the war stuff, I mean, these neoconservatives, I think a lot of them do, like they believe
00:20:44.560
But the reason why they took over the entire foreign policy establishment is also because
00:20:49.640
like, well, their recommendations also allow these weapons companies to make a ton of money.
00:20:57.060
So there's, you know, there's a lot going on there.
00:21:00.420
But as I'm sure you know, I mean, and this comes off like, you know, it's almost like
00:21:08.860
people are trained to dismiss this as kind of kooky, but it's the reality for any, and
00:21:14.600
What the neocons are essentially the Likud vanguard in America.
00:21:20.640
And they've, they've all of the, and they write it in their own words.
00:21:23.860
I mean, you can go, you know, I think I mentioned this last time I was on your show, but just,
00:21:27.640
just for everyone, if they want to read this, go read A Clean Break, A New Strategy for Securing
00:21:35.020
And it was written by Richard Perle and David Wormsor to Benjamin Netanyahu in 1996, when
00:21:43.080
This was their letter to Benjamin Netanyahu on what the new strategy for Israel ought to
00:21:47.820
And the new strategy for Israel, what is regime change in Iraq, making deals, bribing off
00:21:55.440
So you don't have to do this, this silly peace process thing that every U.S. president
00:22:02.380
And so that's, you know, this is a huge part of why we've embarked on these terror wars
00:22:08.580
So your perspective is we're doing this because it's actually securing Israel, not because
00:22:13.140
Jumping in here to remind you that for the third year in a row, Hallow is having their wildly
00:22:19.780
Over four weeks, you will journey through the life of an incredible saint, learning more
00:22:24.380
about their life, faith, story, and ultimate surrender to the will of God in their life.
00:22:28.760
On August 5th, the challenge will kick off with Joe Mazzula, the coach of the Celtics,
00:22:32.980
and Saint Sebastian, the patron saint of athletes.
00:22:36.160
Then Rhea Wahlberg will lead meditations on the life of Saint Elizabeth Seton.
00:22:40.800
Following Rhea, Jonathan Rumi, who plays Jesus in The Chosen, will go through the powerful
00:22:44.960
stories of Saint Maximilian Kolbe, who sacrificed his own life for the life of another.
00:22:49.780
At Auschwitz, we will end the series with Father David Michael Moses and Blessed Pierre
00:22:54.860
Giorgio Frassati, who is set to be canonized next summer.
00:22:59.180
Saints in Seven Days has been some of the most popular content on the Hallow app because
00:23:02.880
you go deep into the lesser known parts of a saint's life to recognize that they are not
00:23:06.460
much different than we are, and that sainthood is not some far off unattainable goal.
00:23:11.320
So download Hallow today and strive to become a saint.
00:23:14.140
You can download Hallow for three months free at hallow.com slash Candice.
00:23:25.580
You know, I mean, like there's other elements, but that's a huge component of it.
00:23:29.680
So Israel, very small country, like size of New Jersey.
00:23:32.220
How is it that that small country has been able to garner so much power over the American
00:23:50.660
The news stations, there was clearly a neocon movement.
00:23:53.720
And you just wonder, because I came at this truly as a conservative.
00:24:02.980
That while our nation is in decline, we should not be sending any money overseas.
00:24:06.640
And that was totally fine in the conservative movement.
00:24:09.460
Like everyone agreed with me and everyone agreed with me on Afghanistan.
00:24:13.900
Kind of some neocons were actually, actually very radically pro-Ukraine, even though they
00:24:18.940
But then on the Israel stuff, they're just like, no, like this is different.
00:24:26.500
And not just that it's like different, but that they immediately become the woke.
00:24:33.700
It's like, oh, no, I think this is an exception.
00:24:42.380
And you're like, whoa, I thought that was the whole thing we were against.
00:24:46.980
I mean, I literally just said that the other day that I think the woke right are the worst
00:24:51.680
I mean, like, it's more ridiculous than the woke left, even.
00:24:55.360
And at least the woke left isn't like pretending to not be the woke left.
00:24:58.400
That's why I actually hate the neocons more than I hate the left, because at least they're
00:25:03.120
Like, we will always use emotional arguments to talk about slavery.
00:25:05.800
But the woke right pretends that they don't do that.
00:25:08.460
And like, they believe in free speech and the best idea should win.
00:25:11.040
Unless it's an issue that they care about, then they're like more woke than anybody else.
00:25:15.700
I mean, and with the exact same tactics, just dismiss you, smear you, and also just, you
00:25:22.120
know, that like the neocons, we were talking about this briefly before, but the thing that
00:25:26.400
just what I hate so much about them is how much they also like, like I'm old enough to
00:25:32.180
remember the George W. Bush years and the Barack Obama years really well.
00:25:38.020
And every single neocon who had the support of every right wing talk radio show host in
00:25:45.260
America, like the entire conservatism Inc through all of the Bush years and all of the Obama
00:25:50.960
years had no problem demonizing Muslims in the most vicious ways.
00:25:58.600
I mean, do you remember the biggest thing in the world was that they were putting a little
00:26:02.420
mosque a few blocks away from where the World Trade Center had collapsed.
00:26:07.160
They made this out like they're replacing the towers with a mosque and all the Sharia law
00:26:15.620
And when they were trying to sell the next war, they were fine with like, be really worried
00:26:21.440
This was the big criticism of Obama from every dumb Marco Rubio Republican.
00:26:25.920
He won't even say radical Islamic jihad or something.
00:26:30.180
As Obama is dropping every bomb ever on the Muslim world, their complaint was that he's not
00:26:39.260
And then when Donald Trump rose up and was like, we don't need to be fighting these wars.
00:26:44.880
And then he goes, I want to ban on Muslim immigration into America.
00:26:49.220
So, you know, whatever he said, till we figure out what's going on.
00:27:02.280
And likewise, like I was talking about in 2004, when George W. Bush was trying to get
00:27:06.580
reelected and it was a close election and the war was already getting fairly unpopular.
00:27:12.000
What they ran on was a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.
00:27:16.940
They tried to find the wedge issues and then be on the conservative side of it and get the
00:27:21.640
conservatives riled up and say, hey, we're going to be on your side for this so we can
00:27:26.000
And then as soon as Donald Trump was the most popular thing, they became Democrats and they
00:27:33.600
They're coming after the LGBTQ community or whatever.
00:27:42.260
So they'll use whatever side they can, stoke up resentment amongst Americans so that they
00:27:47.800
can get into power to keep the war machine going.
00:27:50.900
But it just begs the question is like, how can such a small group of people garner this
00:27:55.440
And I think the truth is, is because they just have a lot of money.
00:27:57.280
I mean, talk about the military industrial complex.
00:27:59.480
It's unbelievable how much money they have to dedicate to these efforts, these propagandized
00:28:05.460
And this goes back to why I say it's so important for people to declassify, look at the declassified
00:28:11.240
Like you need to comprehend that a lot of things that you would believe are conspiracies
00:28:15.700
because you're coming out of your public education system programming and you're just like, you
00:28:20.400
probably believe the government is kind of good.
00:28:22.660
You just need to look at some declassified docs, Operation Mockingbird, the money spent,
00:28:27.740
like these journalists are paid to say whatever.
00:28:32.760
And I'm sorry, it's like tales all this time, money talks and people will quite literally do
00:28:38.840
This is why you don't see ideological consistency.
00:28:41.400
Just like you're saying, there's no ideological consistency.
00:28:46.240
People don't remember the old Don Lemon where he would, he sat down with Morgan Freeman and
00:28:50.000
spoke about how like he doesn't want to be seen as just a black man, how he doesn't like that
00:28:56.660
And then suddenly BLM came and I don't know what he was offered, but this man turned into a, a total hypocrite, um, in terms of the things that he had said prior.
00:29:05.180
I mean, he would have called somebody a Nazi if they were saying the same things that he said
00:29:11.000
I mean, he would have been like, that is the most vicious racist in America.
00:29:15.340
Is it, do you ever see the thing where he had like the list for young black men of like things
00:29:20.520
And it was like, uh, pull up your pants, speak English properly.
00:29:23.960
You know, and, and look, by the way, not bad advice.
00:29:27.520
I mean, like not bad advice for someone if you want to get your life together.
00:29:31.700
And there, and there should be people like that.
00:29:34.440
Now, I don't know that Don Lemon was ever going to be that figure in the black community
00:29:38.300
that like really spoke to young thugs in the streets and got them to pull their pants up
00:29:44.100
Like, I don't know if the gay guy on CNN was going to be their thought leader, but it's not bad
00:29:48.860
advice, you know, and like, but he would never, I mean, yeah, look, I was thinking about this
00:29:53.080
just recently because it's a, you know, because Kamala Harris's track record has been, been
00:29:57.300
coming up and it is pretty funny how there was a, so like when I was younger, there was
00:30:03.280
a, the Democrats were always racing to not be seen as wimpy liberals.
00:30:09.680
Um, cause that had been the knock on them forever, particularly after like, um, like the
00:30:17.420
Um, there had been bad crime in, in blue cities around America.
00:30:21.420
Republicans were running as law and order candidates.
00:30:23.760
And then the Joe Biden was a big part of this bill.
00:30:26.460
Clinton was a part of this where they tried to race to the other side and be like, no,
00:30:37.340
And Kamala Harris was almost at the tail end of that as a prosecutor in California, where
00:30:42.260
she was a, she wasn't a, one of these progressive prosecutors.
00:30:50.280
Truancy laws, like whatever it is, like throw the book at them.
00:30:53.600
But does anyone have any doubt that if Kamala Harris was a prosecutor today, she would just
00:31:00.260
She doesn't actually have anything that she believes in other than just gaining power.
00:31:04.600
So it's like nowadays she'd be like, Hey, we can't arrest people for shoplifting.
00:31:09.560
And she's even saying things like that now, but then people go, but look at your track
00:31:14.280
And it's really as simple as like, Oh, that was the thing we were doing then.
00:31:21.680
I feel like we've had the longest three, four weeks in politics, especially with the assassination
00:31:25.360
attempt, which they already want to move on from.
00:31:26.780
That really should tell you something like president Trump just almost got shot on stage and already
00:31:32.280
You know, it's been like, it seems like we should get a month for that.
00:31:37.140
So we can go back to calling him and all of his supporters racists who are going to
00:31:39.540
end democracy, even though we almost just watched democracy get ended on live TV when
00:31:43.160
they try to take out a person who's running for president.
00:31:46.520
But anyways, what is your, I feel that the political flip forward is changing, that people
00:31:50.860
who had platforms before are not going to have platforms in a couple of years.
00:31:54.220
It feels to me like the scales are falling from people's eyes in a very good way, but I
00:32:00.380
don't think that things will ever be the same post-assassination attempt.
00:32:03.080
I think this is a different Donald J. Trump in a lot of ways.
00:32:07.400
And I wanted to get your read on what's happening with the Democrats, what's happening with the
00:32:15.500
I think we're in the middle of a major realignment, which has probably been slow moving for a while
00:32:22.220
now, but it does seem to really be speeding up.
00:32:24.380
I think that, you know, to your point that I think there's a lot of people who have exposed
00:32:30.840
themselves for good and for bad, and that I do tend to agree with you that I think there's
00:32:39.700
And I think that the Israel has been a huge topic on that.
00:32:45.000
But there's a lot of other things that, you know, it's almost hard for us to appreciate
00:32:49.980
the normie perspective on a lot of things and like take a step back and realize like how
00:32:54.120
many people just realized that the entire corporate media was covering for Joe Biden
00:32:59.880
for all these years, that there was literally a senile man in the White House who we all
00:33:07.260
deem to be too senile to run a campaign for four months, yet can be the commander in chief
00:33:13.580
for five and a half months until January, right?
00:33:20.300
I think there's, I think that Donald Trump, one of the really interesting effects of Donald
00:33:26.840
Trump surviving this assassination attempt was that essentially the entire establishment
00:33:36.120
And they did this in a kind of subtle way, but I don't think, I think it's too obvious
00:33:42.320
So like, look, there was a few notable exceptions.
00:33:44.600
There's like Keith Olbermann's of the world out there who are like, yeah, he's Hitler.
00:33:50.440
But that, not too many people were willing to go that route.
00:33:53.080
So you have Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, all of them wish Donald Trump
00:34:02.320
Everybody in the corporate media said the same thing.
00:34:06.380
You know, you can't say a guy's literally Hitler for eight years and then wish Hitler a speedy
00:34:14.320
Either democracy is on the line or political violence is never acceptable.
00:34:22.420
And the only thing they have, and this has been true since 2016, the only thing they have
00:34:27.180
to deal with Donald Trump is to take it up to 11.
00:34:29.540
They have to call him literally Hitler, existential threat.
00:34:37.500
Now, this is already much harder because he has a four-year track record.
00:34:41.840
But now, once they started wishing him well and denouncing political violence, it's almost
00:34:53.220
And I do think, again, like the people are just starting to go, wait a second.
00:34:56.160
Some of the stuff that I thought was full-on conspiracy theory and sounded cuckoo to me and
00:35:00.580
nuts to me, there's actually some truth to this.
00:35:02.740
And that's one of the things that I've been doing on the new show because there were so
00:35:06.880
And I think that we all go through this because, again, it all goes back to psychology.
00:35:10.420
And that's why learning about Edward Bernays, it was actually a good exercise because it
00:35:15.920
You know, like I was just sort of like, okay, actually, now I know that my gut, those gut
00:35:20.520
instincts mean something and that there have been people working for years to make you go
00:35:24.320
against your gut instinct, like to make you, I mean, there was a CIA experiment where
00:35:27.500
they held up a picture of something and everyone was a Fed in the room except for one person
00:35:32.580
because they wanted to see, held up a picture, I'm giving an example here of an apple, and
00:35:36.400
they just went around the room and they said, what do you see?
00:35:38.840
And they had every Fed to say, banana, banana, banana, banana, banana, banana, just wait to
00:35:43.760
get that last guy who wasn't a Fed to see if he would say banana, even though they were
00:35:53.460
I got to be the person who's going to straight up just be like, no, that's an apple and you're
00:35:56.880
all crazy because that is the power of psychology.
00:35:59.740
They understand that there is a madness to crowds and that if you say it enough times, people
00:36:04.780
hear it enough times, enough people repeat the thing, then people will accept that as
00:36:09.520
And so it's been one of the most shocking things for me to look back into American
00:36:12.920
history because way too many times Alex Jones has been right.
00:36:16.860
Alex Jones has been right way too many times, right?
00:36:19.960
I am not comfortable with how many times Alex Jones, who I grew up thinking was a total
00:36:23.820
psychopath, has been correct when you go watch the old clips and you're like, what the heck?
00:36:30.780
Maybe he's just been awake for a very long time.
00:36:32.640
Doesn't mean he's always right, but it does mean that he's been right too many times.
00:36:35.540
And the more that I peel back this onion and realize and challenge my conditioning from
00:36:40.900
childhood, it's quite scary and it gets scary and it gets sinister because you realize like
00:36:46.180
when we're saying that these people worship Satan, no, like literally there were people
00:36:52.500
And that's why I sent to you, like, do you know about the origins of NASA?
00:36:56.580
Like Jack Parsons, who established the Apollo program, well, the precursor to the Apollo
00:37:01.680
Apollo program, which is like jet propulsion, the jet propulsion program, he literally worshiped
00:37:08.980
Like they were doing these experiments in the Devil's Canyon and they were having sexual
00:37:13.660
rituals, thinking that they could summon demons.
00:37:15.680
He wanted to get a woman that was pregnant, like a virgin pregnant and name it the moon child.
00:37:23.900
He practiced a religion called Thelema, which was Aleister Crowley, who was a full Satanist,
00:37:29.080
named the most wicked, the most wicked man in the world.
00:37:34.320
And so I'm just like, okay, that makes me very uncomfortable.
00:37:38.520
Well, if nothing else, you're like, this is really fascinating.
00:37:42.840
And maybe it's like, you know, sometimes with these things you're like, okay, I don't know
00:37:46.000
how deep this runs, but like, it's like just when you see like in Bohemian Grove or something
00:37:50.320
like that, you're like, okay, so we have video footage of you guys doing some crazy weird ritual.
00:37:55.080
So you're telling me that like our political leaders and like cultural influential people and
00:38:00.900
bankers and all these people, they get together and do weird rituals.
00:38:03.700
Like, okay, can we ask some more questions about that?
00:38:08.940
And it is bizarre how much, particularly the Bohemian Grove one, because it like, it is
00:38:17.140
People admit that they go, that they've gone to it.
00:38:19.880
We have Richard Nixon on tape talking about how, I won't use his language for it, but you
00:38:26.380
know, like he's, you could go find out how he described it.
00:38:29.180
And so you're like, and then homosexuals, we'll use that word.
00:38:34.420
And then you go, so wait, so you're telling me that nobody in the media, like we don't
00:38:42.480
have one investigative journalist who's like really interested in this story and getting
00:38:49.160
It's like, when he, then I started getting interested in Aleister Crowley, this guy was
00:38:52.940
Like, this is not like some random guy who was like, like, I believe in Satan.
00:38:59.740
Like he was best friends with the guy running Vanity Fair.
00:39:01.580
He was best friends with this guy establishing the Apollo program.
00:39:04.160
He was funded and with all of these elitists, they loved him.
00:39:09.780
And I'm like, no, this is very scary because they kept getting caught having sexual rituals.
00:39:14.120
One such story, by the way, and again, this stuff that I'm saying to you, you don't need
00:39:20.340
One such story is like Mussolini kicked him out of Italy because they were having one of
00:39:24.780
Like they believed the elites would get together and they would have sex rituals in order to
00:39:32.140
And he got kicked out by Mussolini because somebody actually died in one of these sexual
00:39:36.140
rituals because they wanted to take this, their ecstasy to the next level.
00:39:41.160
And when he gets kicked out, he goes and stays at his friend's house in France.
00:39:47.520
Like, you know, it was like crazy stuff like that where you're just going, okay, so this
00:39:51.560
is the fact, like just what you're saying, that we have these mainstream media journalists
00:39:56.100
who pretend that everything that you've ever heard is crazy.
00:40:01.200
And then when you start doing your own research and you learn, and you're just interested,
00:40:04.380
like I was just interested in learning about the moon landings, the Apollo program, and
00:40:07.840
you keep coming up with people that are involved in sex rituals.
00:40:11.920
And it's, but it's unnerving in a way that actually brought me back or closer to faith
00:40:16.600
because I'm going, okay, America, and this was a clip from Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan
00:40:21.120
that I actually do want to play for you because I will play it on my podcast over and over
00:40:27.060
So the template that you're using to understand this is like science fiction, right?
00:40:30.800
These are an advanced race of beings from somewhere else.
00:40:34.600
But the template that every other society before us has used is a spiritual one.
00:40:38.660
There is a whole world that we can't see that acts on people, a supernatural world that's
00:40:48.980
In fact, every society in all recorded history has thought that until, I'll be specific, August
00:40:54.780
1945 when we dropped the atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
00:40:58.260
And all of a sudden, the West is just officially secular.
00:41:03.000
And that's the world that we have grown up in, but that's an anomaly.
00:41:07.200
There's never been a society that thought that.
00:41:09.740
Every other society has assumed, and they've had all kinds of different explanations and
00:41:13.520
the details differ, but the core idea does not differ.
00:41:16.640
It never has differed from caves until now that we're being acted on by spiritual forces
00:41:24.780
So that particular segment, it just really hit at me because I was going, okay, so much of
00:41:30.640
what is sold to us in the public school system is we're own gods, we're secular.
00:41:33.840
Atheism is now very popular, but this is very new.
00:41:36.720
And it's not new because we became a wiser society.
00:41:43.640
And so when I look into history and I see that these people were doing these rituals and
00:41:48.700
And like I said, Aleister Crowley, he was with the elites, all of these old, what's that
00:41:54.260
He was having a sexual affair with one of the guys there and somebody that was at all of these
00:41:59.280
Like a Cambridge club is where they were having their sexual rituals.
00:42:01.380
And you look throughout history at how many times elites got caught having sexual rituals.
00:42:05.220
And I'm talking about recent history, like the last 150 years.
00:42:08.580
I went, okay, if they believed in this, and these are people that had the access to the
00:42:12.740
most wealth and the most money, that they believed in spiritualism in a demonic way,
00:42:16.820
then people better wake up right now and realize that spiritual forces are still at play.
00:42:20.780
And if you're not playing, if you're not even speaking about that and you don't think
00:42:23.900
God is real, then you're essentially the person that's bringing like a knife to a figurative
00:42:29.880
Like, I think that this has been going on for a long time in America and that we have
00:42:35.600
I mean, even Cat Williams, when he went on Joe Rogan and he starts talking about Baphomet
00:42:40.860
And I'm going, dude, what is going on that you now have people in Hollywood that are telling
00:42:44.740
you like Hollywood was meant to disrupt you spiritually.
00:42:47.880
Don't even think about it in terms of science fiction.
00:42:49.660
Like think about it like spiritually when they're propagandizing you and getting people to agree
00:42:58.240
And that there's people at say like the Bohemian Grove or something like that who are doing
00:43:03.100
these rituals, whatever it is exactly that they believe in.
00:43:05.820
But they're not pushing on the broader public that you ought to believe in their religion
00:43:14.880
Like this is just nutty to even think there's a spiritual world.
00:43:20.560
Look, I also think like, as I've gotten older, I think that a lot of times, even atheists
00:43:29.520
and very religious people are almost quibbling over semantics.
00:43:34.340
Like it's almost like we all know this is true.
00:43:36.700
We all know that there are like, there's darkness and there's light and there's good and there's
00:43:41.980
And that in itself proves like the spiritual to be true.
00:43:46.200
Like it's not, there's the, I remember one time I watched this and I can't remember who
00:43:50.060
it was, but it was one of these like, uh, atheism verse, uh, Christianity debates.
00:43:57.940
I can't remember specifically who was in there, the Christopher Hitchens or something.
00:44:00.860
I don't remember who is that, but they were arguing at one point and, um, the Christian
00:44:05.160
was talking about evil spirits and how evil spiritual forces play on, on people in people's
00:44:11.700
And then the atheist at one point was like, we don't have to go to magic.
00:44:15.520
You know, we could just deal with like science in the real world and we don't have to talk
00:44:19.700
about how there's spirits and things like that.
00:44:21.580
And he goes, and he goes, yes, people fall victim to depression and, and alcoholism and,
00:44:28.280
And we all know that there are dark forces that, you know, like people can fall into and
00:44:32.980
And I remember just sitting there and going like, wait, but what the hell was that?
00:44:42.840
So what are we, but what are we even talking about at this point?
00:44:45.020
You're just using different words for the same things.
00:44:47.600
You know, like we all kind of know that there is like the high and the low, like we have these
00:44:53.440
kind of like higher desires and then we have these lower desires.
00:44:56.800
You know, like you, you have like the desire to be like a good person and protect your family
00:45:05.440
But then you also have like lower desires, you know what I mean?
00:45:08.400
And, and like, so we all know that there are whatever you want to call it, there are these
00:45:16.760
I do think that there's something, it's one of the worst things about atheism in my opinion
00:45:22.420
is that it almost like, it tells you to dismiss all of that.
00:45:27.820
Now, I'm not saying strictly it has to, like there, you could be an atheist and still think
00:45:31.660
about these things, but often in effect, it has this effect of like dismiss all this stuff.
00:45:38.740
And where previous generations who were much more connected to God and religion, um, they,
00:45:46.060
their starting place was always to appreciate how beautiful this all is and how much bigger
00:45:52.760
And, and particularly today with like technological advances, it's just very easy to not appreciate
00:45:59.020
You know, like I I'm sure for a lot of people who are just alive today, you know, we don't,
00:46:03.420
we take for granted things that we have that are really big deals like heat and air conditioning.
00:46:11.780
Like that's a crazy, almost conquering of nature that I could sit in the middle of the hot
00:46:17.820
summer in 69 degree weather, because that's what I decided the thermostat goes to.
00:46:23.880
And if I want it to be 66, when I sleep, then I change the weather to 66 degree, you know,
00:46:36.800
But if you were in that, if you don't have heat or air conditioning, then you immediately
00:46:40.620
know that there's this much more powerful force than you, that you are just trying to live
00:46:45.700
within, you know, and for modern people, I think sometimes something will happen to you.
00:46:50.780
A family member gets sick, you lose someone, you know, like, like your, your parents die
00:46:56.220
And you're reminded that like, oh yeah, I'm this very small thing.
00:47:02.040
And there's this much bigger force around me that I am powerless over, you know, but
00:47:06.540
like that, I think that what Tucker's getting at there is that it's very easy for us today
00:47:12.660
And then also as you were getting, like all of the elite are pushing on us to believe
00:47:20.560
But, but also, and there's a huge, you know, look, the transgender thing is much bigger than
00:47:26.760
And that's, it's a huge part to what you, well, what you had said before, um, the idea
00:47:31.880
that like, that we are like, that we are in control.
00:47:37.900
Like, so the first thing is that there's no God there.
00:47:41.720
But then the point that you made before about like, um, like if we could get everyone to
00:47:47.620
I mean, there's no question that that's like, isn't that just like a massive version of that?
00:47:51.820
It's not just that they require, listen, I'm a, I'm a radical libertarian.
00:47:56.080
I believe adults ought to be free to do whatever they want to do.
00:47:59.060
I don't, you know, like that's, that is my starting point is like, I believe you own your
00:48:08.660
The trans demand isn't that you say adults have the right to do what they want to do.
00:48:16.600
That's the whole game here is that we can get everybody to look at what you damn well
00:48:21.720
know is not a woman and publicly profess that it is.
00:48:29.400

00:49:43.820
And literally, I mean, there are still people, obviously, who are changing their lives in
00:49:48.520
It's like, what is that if not a demonic possession?
00:49:50.820
And I think for me, now I look at things like psychology.
00:49:54.040
When I studied Sigmund Freud, it's really scary how every person that we learn about in school,
00:50:04.180
Basically, what's happening in the public school system is an inversion.
00:50:10.360
Communists were taking over the American government.
00:50:12.460
You absolutely loved Sigmund Freud, this psychology breakthrough.
00:50:16.860
This is when they realized that they could just use psychology to modify human behavior.
00:50:22.640
Sigmund Freud, as a fact, I don't know if you know this.
00:50:25.540
Sigmund Freud was a person who created psychoanalysis.
00:50:29.580
This has got me in a lot of trouble with journalists a long time ago.
00:50:32.300
And of course, they didn't debunk anything I said.
00:50:34.560
They just called me anti-Semite because Sigmund Freud's Jewish.
00:50:37.100
I didn't even mention who cares if he's Jewish, right?
00:50:38.960
He created psychoanalysis because he had a bunch of women that were coming to him saying
00:50:48.340
And so he created psychoanalysis to convince them that their memories were wrong and they
00:50:54.260
were actually attracted to their fathers, okay?
00:51:07.140
But his best friend, Robert, I'm blanking on his last name and I can actually probably
00:51:11.780
He was another one of these men who, factually speaking, raped his son.
00:51:17.580
So it's like, it's always something we have to, like, imagine whether or not it was real.
00:51:20.300
And the only reason we know this about Sigmund Freud as a fact is because this guy who graduated
00:51:24.600
Harvard became one of the executives or had a role at the Sigmund Freud Archive Center,
00:51:34.160
So he couldn't read anything at this archive place.
00:51:41.780
He starts reading Sigmund Freud, finally understanding what he's writing.
00:51:45.780
No, Sigmund Freud created all of this to protect pedophiles.
00:51:48.500
And so he, like, runs like, this is going to be amazing.
00:51:50.860
Like, I'm solving something that the world didn't know.
00:51:57.400
This Harvard grad gets his life completely ruined.
00:52:00.020
He gets attacked by the media because he's trying to tell the world that Sigmund Freud created
00:52:04.080
psychoanalysis as a means to protect pedophiles.
00:52:10.100
And they don't protect it in a way that, like, now, I guess I've said the thing, but they
00:52:13.980
just attack you by being like, you can't talk about Sigmund Freud.
00:52:16.220
And the same way they do this about Magnus Hirschfeld, who introduced transsexual, he was the first
00:52:21.400
guy that, like, came up with, like, being transsexual.
00:52:25.500
And when you look into him, he was an awful guy.
00:52:33.100
And it's like, why are we protecting so many people throughout history that were involved
00:52:39.400
And not only are we protecting them, we are then reintroducing them as heroes.
00:52:42.280
So if you look up Magnus Hirschfeld, he's introduced as a hero because now we're back
00:52:46.640
If you look up Sigmund Freud, it's like, this was the breakthrough in psychology.
00:52:49.400
And it was like, no, this was the breakthrough in that they realized that they could use
00:52:53.400
psychology to trick you into accepting things that were purely devilish.
00:52:58.180
Like, Sigmund Freud is easily one of the worst contributors to our modern society.
00:53:05.900
And yet, I graduated and thought this guy's who we should all want to be.
00:53:11.520
Well, even, it's funny because even as Tucker, like, points to the dropping of the atomic bombs
00:53:16.620
on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, if you go look at the greatest president ever, when they have
00:53:28.220
Henry Kissinger said, greatest president in American history was Truman.
00:53:34.960
But literally, there's like the guy who dropped nukes on cities is supposed to be...
00:53:39.460
And by the way, this was like after the Nazis had already surrendered, after Adolf Hitler
00:53:44.180
was already dead, after the war in Europe was over, and with five-star general Dwight D.
00:53:51.980
We don't need to do this because Japan's already willing to surrender.
00:54:05.300
Yeah, and they dropped it on praying Catholics.
00:54:08.360
They dropped it 300 feet away from a cathedral.
00:54:10.260
It makes me so angry because there's a lot of that going on where they were dropping it on Catholic
00:54:14.720
But parking that aside, you look at people who I know are not neocons, and going back
00:54:18.660
to that childhood trauma, they believe, we are taught in school, that they had to drop
00:54:23.040
Again, justifying things that were horrific in the past by teaching a new generation of
00:54:28.160
children that it was totally something that had to be done.
00:54:30.060
So it's like, we actually committed a war crime, but we're going to tell you in your classroom
00:54:33.420
that World War II wouldn't have ended unless we dropped that bomb on praying Catholics.
00:54:39.260
And then you still see people, like I said, who are not neocons, who will defend it radically.
00:54:45.880
And I'm like, there is not a single objective truth to that.
00:54:48.860
Like, I mean, even the amount of people they killed in one go, we were already firebombing
00:54:53.040
Tokyo like two weeks prior and killed just as many people.
00:54:56.540
This was about, we want to test out these nukes.
00:55:01.440
We have nothing to show for all the money we've spent.
00:55:03.840
Hey, how about we drop this on this random place in Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
00:55:08.520
And then we'll use the propaganda, people, the propaganda say, well, this is now officially
00:55:13.520
It's like, no, the war was, the war was already over.
00:55:15.380
The war was, except for paperwork, you know, the term sheet was done.
00:55:21.300
And it's, it's sad that people are so removed from their humanity that they, we don't have
00:55:27.520
the proper response in America to what it means to having bomb dropped on you.
00:55:34.940
Well, I mean, look, we have a, we have 9-11 and what, and we lost our collective minds
00:55:40.240
as a result of it and went off and fought seven wars over the next 20 years, you know?
00:55:44.660
And like, that's one of the points I try to make a lot when people talk about like how
00:55:48.260
evil these Muslims are and how, you know, like how terrorist the Palestinians are.
00:55:52.800
And it's like, Hey, listen, just like before you go judging a whole group of people on these
00:55:57.040
standards, just at least be fair here and go, look, like we had one 9-11 and we responded
00:56:03.040
this way, imagine that was your whole life, like your entire life.
00:56:08.160
You know, it's, it's like, it's not to say like, you know, it doesn't mean like, Oh,
00:56:11.820
you're justifying Hamas or something like that.
00:56:15.980
Those people in Hamas who broke out of Gaza on October 7th, almost all of them, I, maybe
00:56:24.760
there's an exception here, but I almost guarantee that every last one of them, that was their
00:56:29.820
They had never been outside this five mile wide prison.
00:56:38.140
Um, look to one of the things that's really interesting about this, right?
00:56:41.480
So that clip that we just looked at, that was the most controversial moment of that podcast
00:56:48.140
when Tucker came out against dropping nukes on cities.
00:56:51.920
And you, so you kind of have to ask yourself, okay, well, listen, why would that be the case?
00:57:03.360
Well, I mean, I think that the, the point you were making before, I mean, it, it cannot
00:57:08.600
be overstated how much world war two is the origin story of the American empire and how
00:57:16.300
this is so, and like you said, not just neocons, this is like hardwired.
00:57:20.760
It's been so deeply propagandized into people that they have to, I mean, if you start questioning
00:57:25.400
world war two, that's like, yo, what are you doing?
00:57:27.700
And I could, I could question world war one, no reaction.
00:57:31.760
We never should have fought world war one, which we shouldn't have fought, but we never
00:57:41.500
Everyone will admit this, but world war two is like a different thing.
00:57:46.740
And I know just to be clear here, cause people are always like, are you implying that?
00:57:54.740
But just for anyone who's honestly interested, like, no, I'm not implying that.
00:57:57.940
Listen, part of the reason why world war two works as this like origin myth is because
00:58:04.780
the Nazis and the Imperial Japanese are really good villains.
00:58:09.200
It's like, it's really like, it's really easy to make them the villains because they were
00:58:15.740
But the point is that how many people today, when, when you're just talking, I mean, regular
00:58:20.820
people I'm talking about, when you're just talking about the war in Gaza is the first
00:58:24.960
thing they go to, uh, we killed a whole lot of people in world war two.
00:58:31.040
And the answer already, but the answer already answers itself.
00:58:35.060
Obviously that was a, well, the starting point is, well, that was justified.
00:58:41.200
I mean, Bobby Kennedy literally said this to me when I'm talking to him about the Israel
00:58:45.260
He goes, listen, the Nazis, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:58:48.080
You're like, wait, we're comparing, we're comparing Hamas to the Nazis.
00:58:57.180
And by the way, if you, if you haven't, and anyone listening to, you got to read Pat Buchanan's
00:59:01.020
book on world war two, uh, it's, uh, called Churchill, Hitler and the unnecessary war is
00:59:07.100
Cause the real deal is that world war two is objectively speaking, the worst thing that
00:59:18.400
The biggest mass murder campaign in human history destroyed Europe.
00:59:23.160
The foundation of Western civilization just absolutely destroyed tens and tens and tens of
00:59:29.500
millions of people just all lost their lives and all.
00:59:33.120
And, and the truth is, and if you go read, uh, Pat Buchanan's book, you see this, there
00:59:37.380
were off ramps all over the place, like in the whole lead up to the war, it's like, we
00:59:45.500
And the only lesson from history that you're ever allowed to learn, which they will say
00:59:50.080
to you all the time is, uh, is, is what is, um, appeasement.
01:00:02.180
You probably would have wanted to appease Adolf Hitler.
01:00:04.500
Oh, you don't want to fight a proxy war in Ukraine against Vladimir Putin?
01:00:11.980
It's like, oh, you don't want to fight a war in Iraq?
01:00:14.740
Like, this is the only lesson you're supposed to learn.
01:00:16.500
That's why whenever somebody wants to call you evil, the first thing they say is Adolf
01:00:19.420
Like, he's like, he's the only person that's been put in the American mindset as a reference
01:00:22.880
When you want to call somebody, it's like, he's, she's literally Hitler.
01:00:26.260
And I have felt that heat since doing the show because I've introduced other facts about
01:00:33.660
So I shared the documentary, which I said, everyone should watch this as a baseline because
01:00:39.120
And I realized how severely propagandized it was about World War II.
01:00:41.460
That's, again, not to say that I'm saying the Nazis were good people, but it might also
01:00:46.500
be something that Americans should know is that after the war had ended, BBC's documentary,
01:00:51.040
The Savage Peace, we went after people who were not Nazis.
01:00:57.960
We just went after these innocent civilians, lined up their children, shot them, ran over
01:01:02.780
their legs for the crime of them speaking German.
01:01:07.060
And it's an important thing for you to understand, because if that is how we behaved in peacetime,
01:01:11.460
12 million German speaking civilians who were ethnically cleansed.
01:01:16.500
If you find a single person that is trying to justify that by saying their stupid phrases
01:01:28.960
Well, you know, when they've lost everything else, when they have no moral arguments,
01:01:32.520
then they're just like, you're like, hey, this like four year old got shot for no
01:01:44.440
So I'm glad we've established that you are pro-hell.
01:01:53.840
And the amount of people that have reached out to me, it's so sad.
01:01:56.600
This happened to people for the crime of speaking German.
01:01:59.940
Not even the majority of Germans voted for Adolf Hitler, obviously.
01:02:02.820
And I think it was like, what, 30% and then he was like installed, essentially.
01:02:07.480
But the point being is that you had these people who had lived on that land forever,
01:02:12.880
And when I saw it, how horrific what was done to them, because it was actually footage.
01:02:17.600
And then I had people reaching out to me from Germany saying like, thank you so much for
01:02:21.040
covering this because we're not even allowed to talk about it because then they passed
01:02:24.400
So if you said anything that stepped outside of the bounds of the World War II established
01:02:28.900
narrative, right, allies, good, always, no matter what, even.
01:02:32.820
After the war, when we were ethnically, we let Stalin just go in there and rape a bunch
01:02:36.740
Stalin, Stalin, the Soviet Union and the British Empire, the forces for good in the world.
01:02:46.080
And I never even questioned that when I was growing up because, again, we've been so removed
01:02:50.560
We don't even think about it because who was doing the World War propaganda?
01:02:57.580
Edward Bernays, they established for the first time ever a propaganda arm in our government.
01:03:02.640
And Edward Bernays was running the program to basically psychologically convince us to
01:03:06.120
only go Nazi bad, Nazi bad, Nazi bad, inspiring us to sign up to kill some Nazis.
01:03:13.260
We stopped seeing each other as like human beings.
01:03:15.080
The part was like, you don't longer need to think of German civilians, these Czechoslovakian
01:03:22.240
Because it's everything we do now is about killing Nazis.
01:03:24.940
So what we did in Dresden, an objective war crime, and any person that says otherwise
01:03:31.480
Like incinerating Catholics on the eve of, they're running around and you've got ash on
01:03:38.060
Like on the eve of Ash Wednesday, they incinerated Catholics.
01:03:43.080
And you look at that all through the day of Ash Wednesday, and you have people that will
01:03:48.820
Like Dresden was not a city that needed to be firebombed at all.
01:03:52.420
So when you look at that and you hear people say that, and still today we carry that same
01:03:56.460
propaganda, Nazi bad, so no matter what we did, even if we had to rape and kill children
01:04:01.200
and women, which we did, we allowed solid men to do that, it's all acceptable because
01:04:11.040
Oh, well, it's like, oh, I guess the argument's over then.
01:04:15.200
Well, there's a, by the way, you should, uh, have you ever seen, uh, Hitler Lives?
01:04:20.120
Okay, so Hitler Lives is a piece of American propaganda in the, in the wake of World War
01:04:29.400
It is, uh, it is like straight up, like just the, it's just, this is what the propaganda
01:04:35.820
And so in the immediate wake of World War II, one of the things that's interesting is that
01:04:39.720
they do not mention, uh, the Holocaust or Jews.
01:04:43.100
That doesn't even come up because that was not even a part.
01:04:46.120
The whole thing is about what an evil race the German people are and how we better keep
01:04:51.500
our eyes on them because they already did this twice and they're going to do this again.
01:04:55.380
So keep your eyes on these like filthy Germans.
01:04:59.200
When you tell the story of what was said about the Germans leading up to this, they don't
01:05:02.640
So there was an entire book written about how they needed to ethnically cleanse the Germans
01:05:07.100
It was written by a man named Theodore Kaufman.
01:05:08.900
And I want to get the exact name of that book correctly because God forbid this gets taken
01:05:14.100
And suddenly I'm like, you know, whatever, they're going to write the articles anyways.
01:05:22.040
I was actually happy because they went through everything so quickly.
01:05:26.140
They got to like accuse me of like touching a girl's butt 10 years, 10 years ago now.
01:05:30.760
They're like, you know, did you touch a girl's butt 10 years ago?
01:05:34.680
Give them two weeks and they'll line up the girls and, uh, the, you know, Lisa, whatever
01:05:39.180
her name is, Lisa Bloom will be representing them.
01:05:48.940
I'm going to say, Canada's created a hostile environment for me.
01:05:52.920
It was a 104 page book written by Theodore Kaufman, which he self-published in 1941 in the United
01:06:00.480
And I'm not, by the way, again, just to be clear here, I am not alleging that the Nazis
01:06:04.920
were good, but I'm saying that we are told such a small snippet of what happened leading
01:06:10.560
Well, so Pat Buchanan's thesis in his book, uh, is essentially that the, the Holocaust was
01:06:20.020
I want to pause before you talk about a thesis because I want to read this thing because I
01:06:23.580
The book advocated genocide through the sterilization of all Germans and territorial dismemberment
01:06:30.220
of Germany, believing that this would achieve world peace published in the United States
01:06:35.280
So I'm just saying like you're a German civilian reading that, that, that might've been interesting
01:06:41.140
I want you to hear about Pat Buchanan's thesis.
01:06:43.560
Who, by the way, like if people, if he's lost on like the younger generation, like everybody
01:06:49.000
I mean, Pat Buchanan is just like the most brilliant conservative thinker of, or at least
01:06:57.200
I mean, he was truly like the precursor to Donald Trump, but, but so, you know, without
01:07:02.820
the pizzazz and the wealth and the brashness, but with like so much knowledge of history and
01:07:11.860
Um, but essentially his thesis on world war two.
01:07:14.180
And by the way, the, if you look at the title, it's, it's Churchill, Hitler and the unnecessary
01:07:18.060
war and unnecessary wars in quotes, because that was a Churchill quote is what Churchill
01:07:24.900
But his argument essentially was that, look, the Holocaust was a war crime and that this
01:07:33.700
And if you could have avoided the war, you could have avoided the genocide.
01:07:37.060
So his whole argument is that it's not like Nazis good.
01:07:41.240
But his argument is that there were so many off ramps to leading up to this conflict.
01:07:46.980
And essentially that what the, what the real battle came down to over, right.
01:07:51.660
Was after, um, after, uh, uh, Czechoslovakia was that, that they wanted Danzig, that they
01:07:58.780
wanted this German speaking town in Poland, which had historically been part of Germany.
01:08:04.720
And that essentially we were like, no, we won't get, cause we learned our lesson, you
01:08:09.980
So we're going to be tough and we'll go to war over Poland.
01:08:12.640
And that we'll say, and then at the end of the war, Poland's handed to the, to the commies
01:08:16.720
who ruled over them for another, you know, six decades or whatever, you know, or whatever
01:08:23.340
And then four decades after, so, or five, whatever.
01:08:27.060
Uh, so the point is that it's like, we could have, there were so many options where we could
01:08:31.620
have avoided this whole thing and look, maybe you disagree with his thesis on the book or
01:08:35.020
whatever, but to just think about world war two as the worst thing that ever happened.
01:08:39.640
And the only thing we're allowed to do in hindsight is celebrate it and how great it
01:08:45.520
was instead of thinking of like, Oh my God, the only thing you should be thinking is how
01:08:51.720
How could we possibly avoid this going forward?
01:08:54.100
That would be allowing us to objectively study it.
01:08:55.920
And that's part of the reason, like I said, they hate me right now because I'm going to
01:08:58.580
know guys, this is an incredibly important moment.
01:09:06.620
So I'm not saying that it's not a good thing that America won.
01:09:09.180
I'm saying that when you look at America today and we realize like, has America objectively
01:09:15.940
Like there's, are we, uh, we've gone into all of these alliances overseas things that
01:09:20.640
Like what NATO is doing now it's all about, Oh, well, you know, world war two, they always
01:09:26.540
And that's why we're doing this, this, this, and that NATO's got to protect borders.
01:09:30.560
Like you're, you're totally encroaching into Putin's territory while accusing him of
01:09:38.620
Well, look, even if, even if I'm wrong about everything I just said about world war two,
01:09:41.840
like, let's just say the official narrative is 100% correct.
01:09:44.600
It goes, it's still only one lesson from history.
01:09:47.000
It was like, like that's supposed to apply to every other.
01:09:49.940
The only lesson in history is like when appeasement went wrong.
01:09:58.980
In the last 20 years, I could give you quite a few examples of it.
01:10:02.200
And look, man, I mean, the stuff with, uh, with, with Vladimir Putin is just, I know we
01:10:06.400
talked a little bit about this last time I was on the show, but it's just so absurd that
01:10:11.380
you would go like, look, whatever you think about Vladimir Putin, he's certainly got a lot
01:10:16.400
of flaws and I'm not trying to live in Russia and I don't particularly like the Russian model.
01:10:20.620
You know, I like the old school American model, pre Woodrow Wilson.
01:10:24.820
Um, but you know, the idea that first of all, we led a coup in Ukraine to overthrow Yanukovych
01:10:35.880
because he had decided to do an economic partnership with Vladimir Putin rather than the EU.
01:10:45.680
People don't even know this because the media keeps Americans dumb, deluded, and stupid.
01:10:52.400
Like if that's, people just go back to the Cold War, but Russia bad.
01:10:57.360
So what you're talking about, what people, Americans watching are going, well, what do you
01:11:01.920
Most people didn't even know that we staged a coup.
01:11:04.340
And they freaked out when I was reading Vladimir Putin's speeches.
01:11:09.200
I'm not saying I know everything, but I'm telling you that we have been intentionally
01:11:13.820
Literally nothing, no context, nothing more told to you other than this person, like monkeys.
01:11:19.240
It's like this person really bad, this person really good.
01:11:21.960
There is nothing else that you need to know other than this evil, this is objective goodness.
01:11:28.280
And I'm like, you cannot objectively take a look at what we did in that region, both in
01:11:32.420
Ukraine and what we have been doing in that region in Ukraine and go, Putin had no reason
01:11:38.440
whatsoever to be upset, unless you're just like a chronic abuser and a psychopath.
01:11:44.820
Oh, by the way, I should, by the way, give this a plug because I just got an advanced
01:11:49.120
But a good friend of mine, Scott Horton, you got to talk to Scott Horton.
01:11:52.520
He's like the best on war, the best voice on war in the country.
01:11:57.180
But he's writing a book called Provoked and it's so good.
01:12:02.120
It just goes through the whole history of basically from the collapse of the Soviet Union
01:12:05.200
up to Vladimir Putin invading Ukraine and the whole history of it.
01:12:08.920
But I'll say Jeffrey Sachs was on Tucker Carlson's show like last month.
01:12:13.680
And the way I thought the way he put it was great, because it's like a like if you look
01:12:17.780
at what's known as the Maidon Revolution in 2014, I mean, there's a lot of, you know,
01:12:22.780
first off, the National Endowment for Democracy and the USAID are just pouring millions of
01:12:28.540
And the Soros NGOs are the ones who got the protesters out onto the street.
01:12:35.940
But on top of that, you have Victoria Nuland and John McCain and Senator Murphy and a couple
01:12:45.740
others who are all in the middle of the protest with them saying, we're with you the whole
01:12:52.940
And what Jeffrey Sachs said, which I thought was great.
01:12:57.660
But he goes, just imagine if on on January 6th, you had a bunch of high ranking Chinese
01:13:06.840
officials who were there with the protesters saying, we have your back.
01:13:16.340
I mean, could you imagine what the response to that would have been in Ukraine?
01:13:25.200
So imagine imagine that's going on in Mexico on your border.
01:13:28.840
So imagine in in Mexico that we come up with like and however we got there.
01:13:34.480
I mean, yeah, we put our thumb on the scale, but we get a trade deal going with Mexico.
01:13:37.960
You know, they were thinking about doing a trade deal with the Chinese or something
01:13:42.120
But we convinced them when you trade with the Chinese, you won't be able to trade with
01:13:45.100
But we'll give you a big, generous loan if you sign this trade deal with us.
01:13:47.920
And they go, OK, we'll sign a trade deal with that.
01:13:49.640
And then China comes in and overthrows that government and installs a government who
01:13:56.700
And then a civil war breaks out and then they start flooding arms in to the civil war.
01:14:06.000
They'd go, well, I guess that's Chinese territory now down there in Mexico.
01:14:12.040
It's like we have done so much to so many people around the world since the beginning
01:14:15.840
And when you start trying to interject that into the American conscience, because now I'm
01:14:19.840
telling people all this information because I'm trying to stop another war from happening
01:14:22.880
because people don't have any information because they really do believe that when they
01:14:26.640
see Ukraine trending and a bunch of people putting like the blue and yellow flag up that
01:14:31.980
Like that is where the American mindset is right now.
01:14:34.400
And they are intentionally like I am telling you, the public school system, the public education
01:14:38.980
system was passed through, was federalized with the intention to make American students
01:14:43.720
dumber and dumber and dumber, objectively, more emotional, but objectively dumber, which
01:14:47.640
is a fact right now, which is why one of the most brilliant things that I think Matt Walsh
01:14:51.380
did or he spoke about on the show, he just challenged people to go read a letter from
01:14:55.740
a non like a civil war soldier writing to his mom who had no educational training whatsoever.
01:15:04.740
And then you go find someone who just graduated university with like a 3.7 GPA and just read
01:15:11.860
what, how they write and how they speak and you will recognize we are becoming dumber
01:15:16.740
The SATs, they're getting rid of honors classes.
01:15:18.520
They don't even want people to know they're getting dumber.
01:15:19.520
In fact, they're convincing them they're smarter.
01:15:21.520
The great paradox is while we are objectively getting dumber in terms of mathematics, in terms
01:15:25.260
of the English language, we are at the same time giving out more degrees than ever before.
01:15:29.200
So we're inflating people's egos while they're becoming legitimately more retarded.
01:15:34.520
And I'm using that as like, not as an insult to-
01:15:46.740
And when you see these kids and they're enraged and they're fighting for trans rights, somewhere
01:15:50.480
in the back, the evil cabal, which I very much believe there is a cabal that is running
01:15:53.840
the government and by another name would be the CIA, it would be all of these intelligent
01:15:57.300
agencies that are linked to each other around the world.
01:16:00.900
That evil cabal is just laughing because you have no information.

01:18:12.340
You're totally right, though, about the thing about dumbing down of Americans.
01:18:16.140
I mean, I remember seeing recently, and this was at the Columbia protests over, you know,
01:18:23.760
free Palestine protests or whatever, which is, you know, as if people know me,
01:18:27.820
it's an issue I'm fairly sympathetic to them on.
01:18:30.320
Like, I'm totally against this war and they're protesting against the war.
01:18:33.780
But, I mean, they're going around, like, interviewing Columbia students there.
01:18:37.500
And I just, like, was blown away by how stupid all of them sound.
01:18:40.860
I mean, it's like, this isn't even just, like, a college.
01:18:46.140
Like, you, and you would think, like, people protesting a war at an Ivy League college
01:18:51.400
have probably read a couple books about it, you know what I mean, and know what they're
01:18:55.580
And just the way they speak and how, like, ignorant they are of the whole thing.
01:19:02.360
And yet my grandfather, who worked in a factory and never even thought about going to college,
01:19:08.340
but him and all his friends who worked at factories were all way smarter than this.
01:19:13.660
Like, they read books and they knew what was going on in the world around them.
01:19:16.600
And it is, yeah, it's, like, Matt Walsh is totally right about that.
01:19:20.240
There's been, and your point, I think, is really, really important.
01:19:24.800
That also, at the same time, that person, that kid there is like, I go to Columbia, you
01:19:32.620
And, like, I have this, I'm getting this piece of paper that means something.
01:19:35.700
And so they have this crazy inflated sense of self that they're, like, a really smart
01:19:42.040
person where it's, like, you're dumber than an average factory worker from a couple generations
01:19:49.380
In fact, you're so dumb because at least that person knew how to survive.
01:19:52.340
Then you couple that with the fact that the majority of these people, and I am convinced,
01:19:56.160
and this is not a conspiracy theory, this is what I tell people every day, okay?
01:20:03.860
When you actually study slavery, you go, how is this allowed to happen?
01:20:07.660
The one thing that every slave civilization has in common is there were more slaves than
01:20:14.220
Well, one of the things that they made sure of is that slaves were not allowed to learn
01:20:18.480
Because an educated mind, generally speaking, can't be enslaved, right?
01:20:21.120
So when you actually know stuff and you're going, okay, well, actually, this doesn't actually
01:20:27.060
The breakdown of family was also so important to that because usually a lot of your wisdom
01:20:31.840
comes from having a strong family, you know what I mean?
01:20:34.140
And when people's families are just in complete chaos, this is why communism hated it.
01:20:39.780
You know, your family takes care of you, so you're not dependent on somebody else, you
01:20:43.400
And the majority of kids today forget the fact that they know nothing and they're convinced
01:20:49.780
When I say this, and I made this because I realized that little elements make you a slave,
01:20:56.280
So I realized this, moved to Tennessee and had a woman that was helping us.
01:21:12.240
We are being convinced that we're becoming more progressive, right?
01:21:17.020
Like during COVID, I'm like, if they just took down the electricity for two weeks, everyone
01:21:23.600
Because they think food comes out of a grocery store.
01:21:30.140
Like I became almost apocalyptic about this stuff.
01:21:34.980
I gotta tell you, like this woman took me outside, Helen, and I got the seeds.
01:21:41.720
She's like, you put them in the dirt and you see what happens.
01:21:45.480
And it was just this amazing moment where I realized I, in that regard, was a welfare recipient
01:21:51.280
I thought grocery, like that it all just happened at a grocery store.
01:21:59.940
Because your grandparents, if you're my age, most of you don't have your grandparents around.
01:22:04.660
They were smarter than you just on the basis that they knew how to survive, okay?
01:22:07.980
They could go outside and they could grow things.
01:22:13.180
Not because I want to be this, what do you call it, huntess, this like amazing huntess,
01:22:17.340
but because I do believe that having basic survival skills is something that has like
01:22:22.120
been intentionally wiped from the American mindset.
01:22:27.240
Most kids, college educated kids, if you were like, car broke down on the side of the road,
01:22:35.560
They literally think they just have to call someone else.
01:22:38.640
That's a scary thing, not to know how to survive.
01:22:41.260
And also not being totally unaware that they don't know any of those things and having
01:22:46.820
no gratitude at all for the people who do know those things, which is the reason why
01:23:03.000
But the worst thing about like elite progressives to me is that.
01:23:07.180
It's the the lack of humility and the lack of gratitude for those who are lower than
01:23:13.560
them on the socioeconomic ladder that it's kind of there's this intense judgment of all
01:23:21.240
those like you said, those are the backward racists with their religion.
01:23:26.080
And it's like everything's looking down on those people as you sit here in this like building
01:23:32.220
that was built by blue collar men that with with air conditioning that was built by blue
01:23:41.200
You had you walked on a road that was paved by a working class mat, you know, and then
01:23:45.840
you sit there and get to talk about whatever dumb new theory.
01:23:51.140
That is like totally couldn't survive in the outside world at all.
01:23:54.480
You know, like some like thing about whatever, you know, queer theory or whatever you're
01:23:58.920
learning and you get to sit there and feel better than all of those.
01:24:01.720
And that's the thing is like when you look at the situation in Gaza and when you when
01:24:04.720
you kind of want to people that really illustrated it for me because I was ignorant.
01:24:08.100
And I genuinely I genuinely and I hope people knew that it was genuine.
01:24:12.760
I don't want to speak about things if I don't know them.
01:24:16.200
But when you kind of gave me even that situation and I'm like this really all comes down to
01:24:21.900
survival and we've kind of gotten into this place because we have we have not had war
01:24:27.020
I mean, you could say like the Civil War and the Revolution War.
01:24:29.280
But I mean, like within recent it's been a long time.
01:24:31.160
So we don't actually know what it means to be forced to have to survive.
01:24:38.940
And it scares me because eventually the pendulum is going to have to swing.
01:24:42.260
And let me tell you that if that pendulum does swing because we're making a lot of
01:24:45.900
enemies, right, if that pendulum does swing, all of those backwards racist Southern people
01:24:51.680
that the media detests so much are going to be the first people that are hit up.
01:24:54.640
So I play this game with my husband, too, where we're like, let's just play Apocalypse.
01:24:59.040
You know, you got to have a skill set to come into our house.
01:25:01.220
And I'm like, you know, that girl, I mean, I guess she could be entertainment.
01:25:06.680
Like, what is your actual skill set that if things went down, I'm letting you into my tribe?
01:25:23.900
My wife will cover a lot of those bases for you.
01:25:31.040
We were like, would we make them divorce when we take them both?
01:25:32.920
We talked about that phase of things where when you're building your tribe and you're
01:25:36.100
like, hey, he doesn't know anything, but his wife knows everything.
01:25:38.960
Do we force her to get divorced so she can come in?
01:25:42.080
You're going to have to work you're going to have to work all right.
01:25:44.660
We'll take you both into our apocalyptic tribe.
01:25:47.000
But I say this like half jokingly, because I think that we are becoming dumber and dumber
01:26:02.240
And they think it's like a sign of status because the Hollywood people, they'll show these
01:26:06.140
like feminists being like, I don't even know how to cook.
01:26:08.360
Like, I don't even I don't even know how to boil water.
01:26:17.020
I'm going to have I've got a few competing ones that I'm going to be like, I'm going to
01:26:28.300
And by the way, like jujitsu doesn't really help.
01:26:34.140
No, but I think I mean, there is and it's not even just, you know, what if some apocalyptic
01:26:42.800
I mean, we've been through some pretty unstable years over the last few years in America.
01:26:47.880
And it does make you wonder, especially because I think also that as most people know, even
01:26:53.220
if they don't really like intellectually know this, they do kind of know to some degree
01:26:56.440
that like, you know, American dominance is all a house of cards, right?
01:27:01.940
Like it was at one point, like America did become the richest country in the world because
01:27:06.700
our productive capacity was so much greater than the rest of the world.
01:27:09.900
That was why we were once like the economic envy of the world.
01:27:16.520
Now it's just over military dominance and exporting paper money.
01:27:21.500
And that's not very sustainable, or at least that could collapse.
01:27:26.860
If you can't militarily dominate the world anymore.
01:27:32.000
It's bad for your soul to be that removed from reality, to be that removed from nature,
01:27:37.540
and also just to like have contempt for your fellow people because they're not as privileged
01:27:45.500
It's weirdly, while the progressives are like obsessed with privilege and like that never
01:27:51.020
That never like entered into your equation that there's like, okay, you're at an elite
01:27:56.020
university and there's an entire working class.
01:28:00.880
You know, like, and you're supposed to know that, like you're supposed to know that that
01:28:05.340
That should come with some feeling of gratitude.
01:28:07.520
Like there's nothing wrong with being in the elite.
01:28:16.380
We're always going to, no matter how much you fight against that.
01:28:19.580
Even the commies had very, you could argue the most severe hierarchies in like communism.
01:28:26.540
But just being totally removed and almost pretending none of that exists.
01:28:31.460
This is the thing that's so devastating about it is that you have today, like you have kids
01:28:37.920
at an elite college university at an Ivy league university who genuinely, like they could pass
01:28:45.000
a lie detector test, they'll go like, well, I'm non-binary, so I'm really like an oppressed
01:28:56.520
And it's funny because that's all they have is like their stupid, meaningless degrees.
01:28:59.720
Like when they try to insult me because my family quite literally couldn't afford when
01:29:03.480
Sally Mae had the collapse, my family didn't have money to go to college.
01:29:06.000
Like I had to drop out of University of Rhode Island because I couldn't pay $35,000 a year.
01:29:12.260
Like they loved calling me that for the longest time.
01:29:15.760
And I'm like, what does your degree, you can't survive.
01:29:20.240
You have resentment toward the blue collar worker.
01:29:23.020
And I believe, by the way, this gets into what you were saying before we started, which
01:29:25.980
I want you to say now, how you were illustrating how, why they really don't like the populist
01:29:30.480
The blue collar worker is actually a guard against governance.
01:29:34.640
Like I actually, the government deeply resents the blue collar worker for a reason.
01:29:42.340
Well, I was talking about, there's this piece that Murray Rothbard wrote, which was like
01:29:48.620
I, to me, like the most brilliant political thinker of the 20th century.
01:29:55.640
It was, it was, it was kind of one of the most controversial pieces, maybe the most controversial
01:30:00.920
Um, and I don't think it should be, I think it's a really great piece.
01:30:04.380
It was really brilliant, but he was writing about David Duke who ran for a governor, um,
01:30:09.660
in the nineties and how he was, he was writing about how the whole establishment freaked out
01:30:15.880
And if you could imagine it was, you know, this was, he was running for governor, but it
01:30:19.640
was kind of, you know, if you could imagine the way people freak out about Trump, it was
01:30:23.680
kind of like that type of freak out where the entire establishment was brought in to crush
01:30:27.700
this guy and including the Republican establishment, the democratic establishment, the entire corporate
01:30:32.820
Um, and of course, David Duke to most people today, I think all they know him of is you're
01:30:40.820
He's a white supremacist, racist, and you're supposed to bring him up like you bring off
01:30:44.940
And so, but at this point he had been polling pretty well and then they really moved in
01:30:49.660
And what Rothbard was writing about was like, he was like, well, look, why is it that this
01:30:56.020
His exact words were, he sure did scare the bejesus out of him.
01:30:59.660
And what he, he was kind of talking about how like, okay, well you could say it's because
01:31:03.820
he used to be in the clown when he was in his twenties.
01:31:06.520
Except the problem with that is that you got like Bird and the Senate and like all these
01:31:10.680
other people, they were also clownsmen, you know, and there are all these, and no one
01:31:15.980
And he goes through it and he's like, well, really what it is, is it's that the regime freaks
01:31:24.260
And this, I think really is a huge component to understanding why they hate Donald Trump
01:31:31.820
Cause it like, if you really think about it, Donald Trump, first off, he's as American
01:31:40.560
He literally, my entire childhood, he was the like stand in for rich guy.
01:31:52.100
He was the most American figure ever, beloved by Hollywood and the establishment and all
01:32:01.460
And he really, I mean, if you look at say like the four years he was in there, you know,
01:32:09.220
He did some very bad things, but he was no real threat to the establishment.
01:32:12.800
It's not like the military industrial complex wasn't making their profits anymore because
01:32:22.540
Um, obviously he's very bombastic rhetorically, but what, what really I think freaks them
01:32:29.400
out about Donald Trump is that he's leading a right wing populist movement and that scares
01:32:34.420
the elite in a way that left wing populism never will like left wing populism.
01:32:40.760
I mean, look, they rigged the democratic primaries against Bernie Sanders.
01:32:45.260
It's too, he's pointing the finger at billionaires and big banks and turns out billionaires and
01:32:52.160
So like there's, it's not that they love communism or socialism, but what is Bernie Sanders really
01:32:59.280
I mean, the people who were they, a bunch of male feminists on college campus.
01:33:05.100
Are they really going to, but who is Donald Trump leading a movement of every barrel chested
01:33:12.700
Every tough like dude that has a shotgun loves Donald Trump.
01:33:19.420
It's part of the same reason they don't like Alex Jones.
01:33:21.300
You know, it's like that's, that movement is something dangerous to them.
01:33:26.120
And that's, that's one of the reasons why they crack down on this.
01:33:28.780
And it's this, it's, it's can also be explained like why masculinity in general is under such
01:33:41.360
If you are somebody that feels that you are taking a step back every month instead of moving
01:33:44.620
forward, when the bills are higher than ever, what you bring in every month feels like it
01:33:48.860
just instantly leaves when you have to swipe that credit card to cover the difference and
01:33:53.900
But if you own a home, my friends at American Financing can help you.
01:33:59.500
American Financing is saving people just like you an average of $854 a month.
01:34:03.260
Think about what you could do with an extra $800 every month and not having to worry about those
01:34:08.760
Even better, it costs nothing to find out how much money you could be saving.
01:34:12.340
All it takes is a quick call to American Financing.
01:34:14.280
And if you start today, you may be able to delay two mortgage payments.
01:34:17.720
So call American Financing today and start your journey towards being credit card debt-free.
01:34:28.600
Or you can visit AmericanFinancing.net slash Owens.
01:34:32.240
This is one of the things that I speak about with like the Andrew and Tristan Tate phenomenon.
01:34:36.240
Where I'm like, okay, like I am, I'm not a person that would ever defend the pornography
01:34:42.480
But when I looked up and I saw like the entire world coming after these two brothers, I was
01:34:48.760
And then I started watching his videos and I was like, oh, okay.
01:34:51.140
So he's talking like old school masculinity, like, you know, and he's saying stuff that's
01:34:54.960
like as if like the matriarchy, which I believe that we're actually existing under, time to
01:34:59.680
be like, step aside, B-I-T-C-Hs, you know, after you guys have been saying all this stuff
01:35:03.560
and men have been subjugated, they're saying the exact opposite.
01:35:07.800
Like, this is not even a girl that you want to marry.
01:35:09.240
And the mass freakout was really because what the establishment fears is real men.
01:35:14.040
It feels real men that will rise up and say, you know what, actually, I will defend my
01:35:18.080
I would defend my kids if it really comes down to it.
01:35:20.640
That's why they want to rip apart families because it allows them to have more power.
01:35:23.420
That's why they're pushing these agendas, the trans agenda and, you know, homosexuality.
01:35:28.640
They're trying to mainstream all this because it disrupts the nuclear family.
01:35:31.220
Nuclear family, and everyone knew this, Karl Marx wrote about this extensively, is a threat
01:35:39.060
If you want to be a government and you want to be omnipotent, you have to radically tear
01:35:44.880
Essentially, redefine what it even means to be a family.
01:35:49.480
Well, you can get married to another woman who identifies as a tiger, and you can go get
01:35:54.880
You're going to turn to the government, and we're going to tell you how you can get some
01:35:58.160
Like, let's just disrupt what it means to be a normal, natural, biological family.
01:36:03.960
From every inch of statism, like every inch of the government, take whatever, you know,
01:36:17.020
And it's like, okay, well, what was Social Security before there was Social Security?
01:36:23.380
Like, the idea was like, you took care of your kids when they were young and helpless,
01:36:27.540
and then when you were old and helpless, they would take care of you.
01:36:32.180
If you think about who, okay, so before public schools, who was doing the teaching?
01:36:36.880
Well, it was the family, or it was the community, it was the church, you know?
01:36:40.360
If you think about even like the way people kind of like very weirdly worship political
01:36:47.300
figures, you know, I think during COVID, like if you remember the treatment, the Cuomo-sexual.
01:36:56.980
It's like, okay, so who, at every inch of this, you see like, wait, whose government's
01:37:10.180
So why, now, now I go, well, why is it that all of the halls of power are constantly
01:37:15.760
demonizing the family, masculinity, the community, religion, you know, like all the things that
01:37:24.680
I mean, and the more like totalitarian that states become, the more necessary it is to
01:37:31.880
I mean, in fact, you can't have them because it's just, look, people who have strong families,
01:37:37.200
which are, you know, okay, as everybody knows, always led by strong masculinity.
01:37:42.420
I mean, that's the way you have strong families.
01:37:46.520
So without strong men and strong family, people who have those strong families are independent.
01:37:51.100
They don't need to be dependent on the government.
01:37:52.920
The government relies on you being dependent on them.
01:37:55.140
And in terms of like organized religion, there's, look, it's just all of those people,
01:38:02.080
right, who you say, who are putting Fauci, you know, worshiping Fauci as a god or worshiping
01:38:07.320
Andrew Cuomo or whoever it might be, none of them were devout religious people because
01:38:12.220
devout religious people don't worship other people.
01:38:14.520
That's like one characteristic that they have because they already have their god.
01:38:17.880
They're not looking for another god to worship.
01:38:20.640
And in fact, almost every single religion, almost everyone, you know, like in the first
01:38:25.680
commandment is almost always don't worship things that aren't god.
01:38:32.580
And if you're worshiping something else like it's god, whether that's yourself or another
01:38:36.540
person or just a symbol, that's blasphemy because you're not supposed, and so there's
01:38:42.320
something that is deeply powerful in that, like even if you're not religious, even it
01:38:46.760
just like from an atheist perspective, there's something powerful about that because it robs
01:38:51.600
would-be tyrants of their ability to put themselves forward as a god, which by the way,
01:38:59.420
That's the reason why in these communist societies, they didn't allow faith.
01:39:01.560
They basically said you're not allowed to be faithful because they wanted your only
01:39:05.500
And that's one of the things I actually don't believe in atheism.
01:39:08.080
I think you just transfer your faith into something else.
01:39:12.600
And you see that happen so often with people that are not faithful.
01:39:19.440
I had the dweebiest conversation with him ever during COVID.
01:39:21.960
He like attacked me for like going outside publicly.
01:39:26.320
And literally, he sounded like he was in a bunker.
01:39:28.280
Like Dave Rubin got me to get on the phone with him.
01:39:29.860
He's like, you two are both my friends, like just speak through this.
01:39:32.320
And when I got on the phone with him, he was just like, you don't understand.
01:39:40.060
But then I hung up the phone and I turned to my husband.
01:39:41.520
I was literally about to go into an event and shake hands.
01:39:52.480
But you living on this earth, you will worship whatever is created to give you one more day
01:40:07.260
You believe in humans so much that are going to rescue you and keep you alive.
01:40:14.200
The greatest flaw in atheism is that it doesn't exist.
01:40:22.860
You see it all the time as somebody who says they're a devout atheist.
01:40:25.900
And then whatever their thing is, it's like January 6th was an insurrection and threat
01:40:40.700
I've seen this out of like hardcore atheist libertarians where then libertarianism becomes
01:40:45.800
I mean, like all of this stuff, it's like the desire to worship is so hardwired in us
01:40:58.960
And then what ends up happening is that if you don't have God in your life, then whatever
01:41:04.140
is next in line, like whatever your highest thing is, becomes your God.
01:41:10.340
Like it's, and I don't mean that like literally, like you don't necessarily have to ascribe
01:41:15.420
supernatural like elements to it, but it kind of doesn't matter.
01:41:21.060
It's like once it's at the top of your hierarchy, it's kind of like you're going to end up worshiping
01:41:27.640
That that's not just in a rational way, in an irrational way, because we're not rational
01:41:34.020
And, you know, you can, that could be not so bad.
01:41:37.300
Like if you, let's say you're in like a really great marriage and you really love your kids
01:41:45.940
Like you don't have God in your life, but like you have a really great marriage and really,
01:41:50.320
And that almost kind of becomes like what you worship.
01:41:56.200
You could still be like a good person and get through that.
01:41:58.480
But man, like if you don't have that also, like if you don't have a marriage and you don't
01:42:02.340
have kids and you don't have God, whatever the next thing, which almost always ends up
01:42:08.000
being yourself in one form or another, you end up like creating this religion to yourself.
01:42:13.920
I mean, look, when you see, um, what's her name?
01:42:16.580
Uh, Chelsea Handler, who's always constantly trying to convince everybody how happy she is.
01:42:22.860
But it's like, but it's, she's like, you know, uh, skiing, skiing, skiing in a bikini,
01:42:31.220
I mean, he's like, no, you're, this is, but this is a religious like service right now.
01:42:40.640
Even if you don't believe in God, like God is real, but even if you don't believe God
01:42:45.000
is real, going to like a church and all being in a community and all deciding that there's
01:42:52.420
something more important than any of us, you know, there's something greater than all of
01:42:58.400
And we're all going to worship that thing is so much better for you than worshiping
01:43:03.240
yourself and just decadence and just like whatever feels good in this moment.
01:43:08.040
I mean, like every, everything we have, everything about civilization comes down to time
01:43:13.600
In other words, to deferred gratification, everything we have, including ourselves existing, like
01:43:20.100
is because for so many generations, people had kids and thought about the next generation
01:43:25.800
and like worked first, you know, what's that old line that I'll end up butchering, but like
01:43:29.820
a man plants a tree, the shade of which he knows he'll never see or whatever.
01:43:34.240
It's like, you're doing things for the future, you know?
01:43:36.780
And that's what civilization is when you think about it.
01:43:39.160
The essence of civilization is like, okay, we're going to start planting crops for next
01:43:50.280
Actually, right now is going to suck a lot more because we have to build something.
01:43:57.820
It's always like, like putting your effort to something greater than just you right now in
01:44:04.660
this moment and even you next year could be something greater than just you in this moment
01:44:09.660
And that's what's so tragic about like militant atheism is whether they mean to or not, they
01:44:18.660
always end up robbing like the thing that's greater than you, which is the best part of
01:44:25.120
Best part of life is, and this is a real, like there's a, there's a seeming contradiction
01:44:33.160
But everybody knows this on some level, the best thing in life, the happiest you could
01:44:37.620
ever be is when you're putting other people above yourself.
01:44:42.700
I think that you've just described that so eloquently.
01:44:44.460
And I, regarding faith, that's what I try to tell people is it lifts the burden.
01:44:50.620
Like, obviously my life has changed a lot this year and people have asked me and they've
01:44:55.260
And I remember being on this like Catholic pilgrimage, which is one of the things that
01:45:02.220
It's nothing, the pain that your body's going through and you're walking in your little
01:45:07.140
I was in the American Australian group and you've got a priest and you're praying the rosary.
01:45:11.780
And I remember having a conversation with this priest and it's so hard to explain to
01:45:15.700
people that when you fully accept, and it's not even accept, it's like, it's just an
01:45:20.800
Like now, really, honestly, history and politics even brought me closer to faith.
01:45:25.720
You just don't realize it, that your faith is being converted.
01:45:28.360
It lifts a burden, like to have to be your own God.
01:45:35.800
Like you're not, you're not a God and you're bad at that.
01:45:38.780
But when you actually, you're, you suck at that.
01:45:41.240
You actually, but then when you actually realize that there's this huge picture and that this
01:45:45.800
is not it and that God is real, I can't explain to you.
01:45:51.220
And I think that might be what is driving the media even more crazy about me is that
01:45:58.220
Like they're like, but we've called you everything.
01:46:11.520
And I'm like, dude, cause I realized how small and meaningless that is.
01:46:15.860
When you have true meaning, then the meaninglessness becomes even more apparent.
01:46:21.920
You're all getting, it doesn't, you mean nothing in the scheme of things.
01:46:25.700
And now I'm living for things that actually matter.
01:46:30.120
It's like, what does the Bible tell you about family?
01:46:32.620
About, it's like, then you're like, oh wow, this book that they conveniently removed,
01:46:36.660
One of the first moves that was done was the lawsuits that went through.
01:46:40.200
And then suddenly you're like, no, don't teach the Bible.
01:46:42.060
It's like this great book of wisdom and it's, it's just a beautiful, it's a beautiful thing.
01:46:46.620
And I wish people could have that happiness and have that lightness in their step by knowing
01:46:50.160
that like all of this means a lot, but also in the end, all of it is really meaningless.
01:46:54.980
Like you are so small and there's something that's so beautiful when you truly come to
01:47:00.420
the understanding of just how small and insignificant you are.
01:47:06.280
And yeah, no, but it's, it, it does and it kind of is, but it, it weirdly also is not.
01:47:12.100
And like, look for me, at least like, I was, I was an atheist for many years.
01:47:20.480
You know, the thing is like, cause it's like, it's not, it's a weird, it's like, no, I always,
01:47:24.920
you, when you find God, you realize you always kind of knew, you know, so it's kind of a weird
01:47:30.820
But one of the things, at least for me personally, I'll say that really changed, um, that has
01:47:36.860
enormously improved the quality of my life is that I just, I, I spend time almost every
01:47:46.280
I want to say every day, I mean, I might miss a day here or there, but almost every
01:47:49.200
day I spend time being really grateful for what I have.
01:47:52.720
And that was something I never even really thought to do before I like had a relationship
01:47:57.380
Like it was always just kind of like, well, I don't know, this is here.
01:48:05.080
And now I try at least once every single day to just be spent just like a few moments
01:48:12.740
And I was like, what an amazing gift this world is.
01:48:19.940
Like, it's like, wow, I've got it really good right now.
01:48:23.780
You know, like it's a lot of this is out of my power, but like, hey, I'm so grateful
01:48:29.640
And that makes you a much happier person, like to be grateful for what you have.
01:48:35.460
And then also there's things where it's like, look, even anybody who's got kids out there
01:48:39.340
knows that there's just something about like, you know, the joy your kid brings you is just
01:48:44.140
like you can't, you know, it's just, you don't, you'll never get that out of yourself.
01:48:48.820
And I just want, I want everyone to be a parent because of that, because I'm just like, you
01:48:51.560
cannot explain the joy that children bring in your life.
01:48:57.060
Even when they're driving you insane, like you're cracking up afterwards, you're speaking,
01:49:02.080
you're speaking to my husband, I'm just like, what is he even like, who's he listening to?
01:49:08.500
When he's being a perfect angel, he gets that from me.
01:49:12.700
And it is, it's, it's so beautiful and I want people to be encouraged in that and to
01:49:19.620
And I think Dave, for whatever reason, like, obviously you're one of the ones, is how I
01:49:25.360
People that listen to this podcast know I'm a vibe.
01:49:31.080
Like I, and actually I credit to Skylar, because when you weren't on my radar and Skylar, when
01:49:35.080
we were back on the old show was like, God, I got to Skylar, listen to Dave Smith for a long
01:49:41.080
And then I started listening to stuff and I was like, wow.
01:49:50.200
And I just feel like God is putting you in some position.
01:49:53.460
And, and I also feel this way about Andrew Tate in a weird, people go, how could you think
01:49:57.840
I just feel like God gave him that platform and now he's recognizing I have this huge
01:50:00.820
platform and tons of young boys are listening to me.
01:50:04.260
And everybody's walk up to that moment is complicated, but you're in this unique position.
01:50:10.740
And I know it was just like a very heavy question, but how do you see what's happening right
01:50:18.020
Like, are you just, I'm just going to commit myself to saying the truth and be bold and
01:50:26.220
Like, I feel like a lot of the false idols are falling apart is what I mean.
01:50:30.320
When I say the scales from people's eyes and like, you're kind of one of the people that
01:50:35.860
Well, I mean, I think you're really one of those people.
01:50:39.240
Um, but I do, I think it's, uh, it's not, well, I think like number one is kind of unlike
01:50:45.880
It's not lost on me how cool it is, what I get to do and how kind of, you know, it's
01:50:51.120
It's a big deal to like, have your voice heard by so many people and to always like, uh, treat
01:50:57.000
And then my job, I feel like is to really know my stuff and not, you know, cause it's
01:51:04.400
So we all have a tendency to like, uh, cut corners or like not.
01:51:09.960
I have to make sure I'm right, at least to the best of my ability.
01:51:14.720
But like, as I was saying to you before, I think the way I look at it is like, so as,
01:51:21.600
you know, as people know, uh, in September, 2001, uh, nine 11 happens in 2003, we invade
01:51:29.180
All of 2002 was building the propaganda campaign to invade Iraq the entire year.
01:51:36.780
If you remember, if you're old enough to remember what that year was like every single week,
01:51:41.840
the New York times and CNN and Fox news and every, like every powerful person was making
01:51:48.260
sure that everyone knew that obviously Saddam Hussein has nuclear weapons and he was clearly
01:51:54.380
in on nine 11 and he's going to give one of these nukes off to Al Qaeda and is then the
01:51:59.560
next nine 11 is going to be a nuclear bomb dropping on America.
01:52:02.860
So what are you, you know, what are you a queer or you want to go bomb Iraq?
01:52:07.760
Like, are you America hating wimp or do you want to go bomb Iraq?
01:52:11.200
And at the time there was just, we had nothing like what we have right now.
01:52:15.920
And I go, if they tried to do that again into now we got Joe Rogan and Tucker Carlson and
01:52:21.080
Candace Owens and literally the biggest shows in the world would all just be shredding that
01:52:26.000
propaganda, just destroying it if they tried to do it now.
01:52:29.120
And so like, I think there's this crazy new thing that we have now where, and this is
01:52:33.540
why I think part of why the elites are freaking out so much, why they freak out about you so
01:52:37.820
much is because it's like, they feel they're losing control and they are, they're right.
01:52:41.920
They've lost the monopoly on information, which is like a crazy thing to lose.
01:52:46.300
And then to your question about me, I kind of see my role as being like, oh, well, I'm,
01:52:53.160
I'm fortunate enough that I get to be one of the guys who's like on all of these shows
01:52:58.660
and like being like, okay, so when I'm on them, my job is to like make the most overwhelming,
01:53:03.780
compelling pitch of like, here's why this propaganda is all complete bullshit and why
01:53:10.280
Um, so I just feel, I feel like that's my role.
01:53:13.760
I don't have any plans to write a book because I'm not a particularly good writer.
01:53:17.440
Um, I'm much better verbally than I am at writing.
01:53:21.060
I've never been a very good writer and I just feel like there's great people who already
01:53:24.140
do that, but just know anyone out there, if I ever, if I ever write a book, just know
01:53:30.880
That's what you should do, a podcast series going like every war.
01:53:37.160
Like when you don't, when I was like, oh, I actually realized I'm nothing about this issue.
01:53:40.360
You're able to just kind of break it down in layman terms.
01:53:44.860
Like when you were debating Amin, you're like, okay, let's just pause for a second.
01:53:48.300
Let me break down what's actually, what, what he's saying and apply it to something else.
01:53:52.240
And I think that is what's missing is that so much of history has been wiped.
01:53:56.640
Cause I was so young when 9-11 happened, we need to start going backwards and slowing down
01:54:01.580
And I think like doing the history of war with like, that's like an easy series that you should
01:54:06.860
And I'm here, I'm giving you homework here, but, um, personally, I just want to say thank
01:54:13.160
If you, if you lived here, I would quite literally be like, we're doing a podcast together and
01:54:16.700
you don't get, you, you don't get any say in this.
01:54:18.860
On top of this, you're also a comedian that's on tour.
01:54:21.740
I'm actually gonna be able to watch you very shortly.
01:54:23.800
So please tell everyone where they can find you and where they can support you.
01:54:26.760
Because I know that this will motivate people to go watch and listen to everything that
01:54:31.760
Uh, well, uh, comicdavesmith.com has all like my tour dates.
01:54:35.740
If you want to come see a show, I'm touring all over the place for the rest of the year.
01:54:39.880
And then my podcast is part of the problem and partoftheproblem.com is where you can go
01:54:48.620
Dave, once again, this will not be the last time we will have them back guys.
