00:00:34.000You see, I'm in Washington, D.C. at the CR-TV headquarters, and I'm here because I'm recording a pilot for a new show that will probably get canned.
00:00:45.000I think I've done about 30 for the garbage.
00:00:47.000So the next two Fridays, I'm going to try out this new show, and we'll see if it takes.
00:00:51.000It's called CR-TV Tonight with Gavin McInnes.
00:00:54.000I've got on Roaming Millennial, Chadwick Moore, Bill Schultz, some big muscly guy probably, and Jack Murphy, who was suing Antifa for getting him fired from the charter schools.
00:01:10.000They saw him in a picture with Richard Spencer and decided he was racist and got him fired, because that's the way things work these days.
00:01:15.000And he's going to make an example out of them.
00:01:19.000But today, I'm not in my New York studio.
00:01:21.000I'm in D.C., so I'm just going to go through this video because it summarizes what I'm about and what I think this show is about.
00:01:30.000And I wanted a chance to sort of really focus on something because on my show, usually I've got like 57 news items and I never really get to go in depth.
00:01:39.000And I could do it on the podcast, but this is a video, obviously.
00:01:43.000So we want to break it down piece by piece because it really summarizes the trouble with diversity and the problem with the lack of Western chauvinism.
00:01:56.000The only time lefties can come up with a better country, they come up with a more white country and they end up sounding like white supremacists, like Bernie Sanders talks about Norway and Finland.
00:02:07.000Northern Europe accrued its money before it was socialist.
00:02:11.000And since it's become socialist, it blows.
00:02:15.000And their obsession with diversity is bringing in a bunch of rapist refugees that are totally changing not just the demographics of all those countries, but the crime stats too.
00:02:27.000So Northern Europe's nothing to write home about.
00:02:51.000Anyway, this video is by this guy who calls himself Nas, not the rapper, but he's got some dumb foreign name that's too hard to say, so he reduces it to three letters.
00:03:02.000And he is a Muslim from Israel, which is a pet peeve of mine.
00:04:56.000And he was complaining about the wall, and he says, the international community has told them to take down this wall, and they don't listen.
00:05:03.000And I'm like, the international community, like what, Mugabe?
00:05:22.000Every time I see a global catastrophe like a mudslide, I just go, well, don't care about the international community.
00:05:32.000Anyway, so this guy was bitching about it, and then we had lunch that day, and he's showing me, you know, dads, we show pictures of our kids.
00:05:37.000It's like the universal way to bore people.
00:05:40.000And he's showing me his beautiful daughter, little angel, a little gift from God.
00:06:08.000Can you name me another Arab country, anywhere in the Middle East, where a lower middle class guy can get a heart transplant for his baby girl?
00:06:39.000And I think the takeaway I got from Israel was you need tough love and you need to stop apologizing because the more you apologize, the more you capitulate, the more people complain.
00:08:53.000This is the kind of thing that looks good on paper.
00:08:55.000You say to your editor, I want to go to different countries, especially after Trump says shithole.
00:09:01.000I want to go to some terrible countries and show people the good in them, and then they can learn that all the countries in the world are good.
00:09:09.000America might be the best, but they're also great.
00:10:53.000In South Africa today, the government, not just thugs, not just gang members, the government has decided that all the land that whites own has to go back to black people.
00:15:24.000I think it was invented in most of the pioneering was, what, Ericsson in Northern Europe and Israel made huge strides with cell phone technology.
00:15:31.000So these guys get our amazing inventions and they're forced to make do with it by making it into their money where they text each other cash.
00:15:40.000That's something I have to learn from?
00:15:42.000That's like someone makes shoes out of a soda pop bottle and some duct tape and they go, we can learn from these people.
00:15:50.000Those shoes only cost zero dollars because he found the duct tape and the plastic bottles and now he has shoes.
00:15:57.000Nike Airs in America or Jeezy's can cost hundreds of dollars.
00:16:45.000All those deaths are from illegal guns.
00:16:47.000There's not a lot of hunting rifles used by bloods and crips and DDP, Dominicans don't play, and all the gangs in the south side of Chicago.
00:18:58.000And I think what happens is we almost encourage jihadists.
00:19:02.000We almost encourage terrorism by telling someone like the Saarnev brothers that America sucks.
00:19:08.000So those kids grew up playing air guitar, listening to Van Halen, lifting weights, being normal kids.
00:19:13.000And then after years and years of America sucks, America sucks, America sucks, America sucks in school, they go back to Chechnya or Georgia or wherever they're from, and their radical uncles go, yes, America sucks.
00:20:23.000Even if you said that to a three-year-old, he'd just go, I don't, how is that funny?
00:20:28.000Anyway, look at this beautiful country.
00:20:30.000By the way, isn't it the elephant in the room when we talk about how we ruined this policy and colonization ruined that and white people responsible for this degradation in other countries in the world?
00:20:42.000And then you look at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which we obliterated.
00:20:49.000Not only did we turn them to glass, but you talk to someone who lives near those areas, you'll be in the waiting room in Japan and a guy will just have a hand the size of a baby, meaning giant, not a baby hand, but he'll just have like a huge finger.
00:21:03.000They had all kinds of weird tumors and weird birth defects for years and years after World War II.
00:21:10.000But you look at Hiroshima and Nagasaki today, it looks like the Jetsons.
00:22:13.000You don't see how bizarre it is to be in a country with no Muslims and then say, hey, people sometimes would think that this would be a bomb that would blow them up.
00:22:22.000Yeah, in Israel, for example, if they saw a backpack sitting there, they would freak out.
00:23:02.000So we can sit there and pretend that Africa totally rocks and for some bizarre reason, I don't know what it could possibly be, Japan has no crime.
00:23:26.000It's so safe in Tokyo that you can just leave your bike unattended, leave your phone unattended, and even put your money unattended in the middle of the street, and no one will give a shit.
00:23:38.000Maybe that was a little bit of an exaggeration.
00:23:54.000They're oftentimes underrepresented in countries around the world.
00:23:57.000In the U.S., the Senate is 20% women, while women are half the population.
00:24:03.000Next up, you know why the Senate is 20% women?
00:24:06.000Because it's a luxury we can afford as a Western nation.
00:24:10.000Most women are happier at home, so when you're in an affluent society, you tend to have women at home enjoying themselves because they can afford it.
00:24:20.000In crappy countries, women have to work because everyone is starving to death.
00:24:57.000When people say it, you want to cry because you feel so bad about the million people that were slaughtered in unthinkable ways for absolutely no reason.
00:25:07.000I mean, I think it's disingenuous to call it ethnic cleansing, to call it ethnic genocide, because I'm sure if you took the DNA of a Hutsi and a Tutsi and a Hulu and a Zulu, it would look exactly the same.
00:27:07.000I've never said those words before in my life.
00:27:09.000Meanwhile, by the way, Cape Town is, I believe, days away from zero water.
00:27:16.000If you look at any of their social media, it's all about how you can use the same bucket that you wash in to pour into the toilet to help flush it.
00:27:24.000And then you can also get that water and use it to brush your horse's teeth because it's obviously going to have a lot of bacteria, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:27:32.000The most you can do with one shot of water.
00:27:33.000You know what I do in America with one shot of water?
00:27:39.000I'll pour some water from the tap and for no reason, what, I think there's going to be rust in it, I'll pour that out and then refill it again.
00:29:24.000And I don't think you should use an O, because Mofo has other connotations, but maybe MIFO or Mo Mafo?
00:29:31.000The reason that I hate stuff like this, this willful ignorance where you pretend that things that suck are awesome, is because it's essentially racist.
00:33:47.000So remember his thesis here, that we have to go there to learn.
00:33:51.000So we go there, we learn about a pay-free app, and we come back, an app we already have in droves, and he says, that would be more valuable here in America.
00:34:01.000I mean, I feel like a teacher here just going through this high school essay saying, makes zero sense.
00:36:54.000Every time you come to a country, every time a Westerner wants to come to America, this doesn't seem to apply to anyone else, they have to prove that they're doing a job Americans won't do.
00:37:46.000And every single person they showed, from the head of tech security to all these engineers, they all had accents.
00:37:55.000So you came here in an H-1B and your first job, and I blame the left for this because they're really just conforming to the dominant culture.
00:38:03.000And the dominant culture in tech seems to be, let's sabotage conservatives, but they're coming here to sabotage 50% of the country.
00:38:11.00050% of the country, at least, is pro-Trump.
00:38:14.000And you're there screwing with their interactions with their friends.
00:39:38.000And ultimately, it leads to fifth columns like Sanctuary Cities and Dearborn, Michigan, which is just Islam in America.
00:39:46.000Or how about Islamberg up in upstate New York here, which is a terrorist training camp that we completely tolerate because we suck and probably deserve to get shot in the head.
