00:00:14.000If she wants to dance and drink all night, well there's no one that can sign from New York in it.
00:00:30.000This night is gonna end when we're that was a Against Me.
00:03:30.000He turned to drugs and was a screw-up kid, a bad kid, and now he's a bad woman who tries to tell parents that your three-year-old is a chick, which is obviously not true.
00:05:25.000I don't know what the solution is, but I know that if Trump is going to take in any refugees this year, 100% of them should be South Africans because there is about to be a civil war going on and the whites are going to lose because they're literally up against an army.
00:05:41.000Sorry, that's pretty depressing and very scary.
00:05:45.000And I would go there to research it more, but I don't want to die.
00:06:47.000I hate names that are black because you can't say Jennifer or Michelle anymore because that's too white and you don't want to be part of America in that sense.
00:07:38.000There was a guy, I think he was fired for saying on Wednesday, this was a few weeks ago, he said, unless it's changed overnight, the motto of the Olympics since 1894 has been faster, higher, stronger.
00:07:54.000It appears the U.S. Olympic Committee would like to change that to darker, gayer, different.
00:08:00.000If your goal is to win medals, that won't work.
00:10:41.000And he does things in his show, which is getting more common, but it's still pretty rare because it's hard to edit, where people will talk over each other or say something that doesn't make any sense.
00:10:50.000You know, the way people talk in real life.
00:10:53.000Movies and TV shows, the dialogue is so purposeful, it gets distracting.
00:11:17.000And Chevy Chase was mean to him once on the set of community.
00:11:21.000And Tina Faye said, the only reason, you know, I had a diversity budget.
00:11:26.000So that's one of the reasons I hired you is because I wanted some color in the writing room, which, by the way, is him bitching about liberals.
00:11:33.000Liberals invented the whole affirmative action thing.
00:11:36.000So if you're mad that you're the token, then get mad at the left because we didn't come up with that plan.
00:11:46.000And I've noticed this too, this is a slightly separate subject, but I've noticed this too with black fine artists, black painters, black drawers.
00:11:56.000I don't know what you call them, illustrators.
00:11:58.000There was a thing, this was a Twitter moment, and it was drawing while black.
00:17:22.000And well, they say they're, those feminists say that they're all pro, they're for choice, but they're really not, because if you don't believe what they believe, you're done.
00:19:00.000And nothing changed except for the fact that he decided that we were Satan.
00:19:04.000Yeah, we were talking to Amanda House yesterday from Breitbart.
00:19:07.000And she said that after being seen as a pariah, she's in D.C., which is the same as New York City.
00:19:13.000After being seen as a pariah so often and having dates walk out, that you just have in your e-dating profile, you just put on a MAGA hat, just like to weed them out.
00:21:40.000Actually, this group, it's called the Revolutionary Student Front, and they're at UT Austin.
00:21:45.000And they're specifically targeting students for recruitment who have mental illnesses.
00:21:50.000So they say that to address the mental health students in a way, mental health needs of students in a way that would primarily serve to politicize and strengthen them, to become more committed to revolution and capable of carrying it out.
00:22:04.000You know, I thought your article mentions their 14,000-word manifesto.
00:22:10.000Now, 14,000 words, a magazine cover story is 3,000 words.
00:22:47.000All words that people in the real world do not use.
00:22:51.000And you're going to sound like a complete, not even buffoon, but alien when you get into the workforce and go, hey, so how are we doing with intersectionality on this commercial?
00:23:00.000And they'll go, I don't know what the hell you're talking about.
00:23:54.000You know, I was reading your article, and I was thinking, I think the impetus with a lot of these extremist, leftist, alt-left groups is they want to normalize radicalism and freakish behavior because they are freaks and they're sick of feeling weird.
00:24:12.000Because, for example, pedophilia is rampant throughout Antifa.
00:24:17.000They've got Mika Rhodes and Luke Kuhn and all these major players who keep getting arrested for molesting and raping.
00:24:28.000In one case, I think it was Mika Rhodes, he was arrested for raping boys and girls.
00:24:38.000I just make a statement and then leave a space for you to make a statement.
00:24:41.000No, no, it definitely seems to be that they're trying to mainstream the craziness.
00:24:46.000And what's really bizarre is these professors who are normalizing Antifa, you have one of them, his name's Mark Bray over at Dartmouth.
00:24:53.000Yes, he wrote the Antifa handbook or something.
00:24:57.000And he donated half the profits of that to Antifa.
00:25:00.000So if you're trying to objectively chronicle a movement, I don't think that's the best way to do it, to go public saying you're donating profits to that movement.
00:25:09.000But he had an interview recently in which they asked him point blank, it was a very sympathetic news site, they asked him point blank, like, you know, what is fascism?
00:25:40.000They have their enemy and they keep their definition ambiguous so it can envelop anyone they don't like.
00:25:46.000So punch a Nazi just means physically attack people that you don't agree with, that are a threat to our crazy, radical, perverted life view.
00:25:57.000You know, Antifa is different all over the Country.
00:26:00.000And here in New York, it's mostly academics like Mark Bray and academics, kids.
00:26:20.000And then it's almost like a cult where these homeless kids feel obligated to get arrested for the cause because their mommy took them in and fed them and gave them a roof.
00:26:30.000So I don't think this is an aberration, this Austin thing.
00:26:34.000I really think they're sort of like collecting orphans so they can use them as an army.
00:27:28.000I'm not sure if you noticed, but another professor, I believe this is at North Carolina University, Elon University, and she's actually trying to help Antifa dox a lot of people she deems far-right extremists.
00:27:42.000And she had a list of these, and she separated them into certain groups.
00:27:48.000And so she's actually giving information on members of these groups to Antifa.
00:27:54.000Some of these groups actually, I believe one of them is Redneck Revolves.
00:27:57.000They actually, you know, they do carry firearms.
00:27:59.000And she's giving them information to Venn dox these individuals.
00:28:03.000Well, we've always laughed about Antifa, but when you start weaponizing the mentally ill, you get some real issues.
00:28:10.000And these academics, they live in a hypothetical universe where nothing's real, but their actions have real consequences.
00:28:17.000Like the redneck revolt guy, that bald, ugly dude, I forget his name, but he terrorized that dude, James Fields, right before James Field plowed into Heather Heyer.
00:28:54.000And usually the main difference I notice among professors and the students are the professors are a little more discreet with their language.
00:29:01.000Now, obviously, you'll have ones like the John Jay College guy, Mike Isaacson, who outright says who outright say that dead cops are a good thing.
00:29:12.000You'll have professors like George Sicarello Marr who say that the Las Vegas massacre, he attributes it to white supremacist patriarchy.
00:29:19.000You will have those radical ones, but then I think really it's the students who are a little more venomous with it.
00:29:26.000And really, the professors, they're targeting people with very malleable minds, 18 to 22-year-olds, on campus, but the students take it a step further.
00:29:35.000They target people with mental illnesses.
00:29:37.000And it's not just to indoctrinate them.
00:29:39.000They outright say that the primary method of combating the symptoms of mental illness that we face under capitalism must be organizing those suffering to come into violent class conflict with the system that creates their illnesses.
00:29:54.000Now, I will tell you, right before our interview, actually, about 10 minutes beforehand, I got an email from someone affiliated with the University of Texas system, a spokesman, and they're saying that this group, the Revolutionary Student Front, isn't a legitimate student group.
00:30:09.000The university now seems to be finally, after I got this drudge hit a couple days ago, trying to distance themselves from the group.
00:30:19.000And, you know, the thing that's sad about all this, too, is obviously the victims are whoever they deem is a fascist, but they are also the victims.
00:30:28.000You know, we had this guy, Trigger Tommy, who got attacked, and he stabbed these, knifed these two people who were attacking him.
00:30:36.000Those people got knifed, I feel bad for them because they were brainwashed into thinking they're attacking a Nazi.
00:30:42.000Or there was just this guy in New Orleans who was part of the Disrupt J20 thing, and he was facing serious jail time.
00:30:49.000So Antifa are the victims of their own propaganda in many ways.
00:30:55.000Right, and I think a lot of the high-profile speakers, so Milo Yiannopoulos was obviously doing a lot of tours in 2016, but nowadays it seems to be that they're really expanding the definition of fascism.
00:31:07.000So I reported last week that they're now protesting Turning Point USA, a group whose mission it is to spread free market capitalism.
00:31:15.000And they're somehow, you know, alleging that they're associated with fascism.
00:31:20.000And so really, like, I think you're an English major, right, Gavin?
00:31:26.000Yes, so was I. And I think what people need to pay more attention to is the language games these groups are playing, the false equivalency they build between hate speech and actual violence.
00:31:36.000And then, you know, you have terms like illegal alien used to be acceptable.
00:31:54.000You know, I sue people who call me a Nazi or alt-right, but my lawyer was saying, my job's getting harder because this term is being so diluted that now Nazi means jerk, and I can't sue people for calling you a jerk.
00:32:08.000You know, they say, I saw one quote that sort of summed it up.
00:32:10.000They go, says he's not racist, supports Donald Trump.
00:32:14.000And then there's a head scratch, and you go, all right, then I guess I'm racist, along with 50% of the population at least.
00:32:23.000Right, well, the good thing about this is they try to do those tricks, right, where they think they're embedding this really subtle implication here that you're racist By supporting Donald Trump.
00:32:31.000But a lot of these far-left outlets, particularly the digital ones, are growing further and further apart from their audience.
00:32:37.000So now you have outlets like The Guardian and The Verge just outright closing their comment section.
00:32:43.000I think The Guardian actually, on sensitive issues like Islam, immigration, they'll just close down the comment sections for those articles because they don't want to hear it from their readers.
00:32:53.000They want to go back to an age where it was just them talking to a screen.
00:32:57.000They didn't have to listen back to feedback.
00:32:59.000That's really what the media wants ultimately, is to be in control of the message.
00:33:03.000And the message is getting more and more bizarre.
00:34:02.000They used to have like a little bit of a, like a behind the scenes, like, here's a hint of what's going to happen, but now it's just like, I ate a monkey brain.
00:34:21.000I want to be able to look at a story and be like, oh, good, this is, I want to read about kids, I don't know, sticking pencils in their butt or whatever.
00:36:02.000Well, I love your article, but I also wanted to have a caveat, which is, ladies, at 25, dump your comedian boyfriend, dump your musician boyfriend, and start getting serious because if you want to turn out three, as Jessica did, you got to start early.
00:37:50.000And if you want two, it's doable, but it's hard.
00:37:54.000It gets harder, you know, like anything gets harder when you get older because you get more tired and there's more complications and there's more responsibilities.
00:40:04.000It's better that I did now than not at all because, like you said, you know, it's good for us to, it's good for, you know, us to keep our population going with good, creative, fun people, you know.
00:41:35.000Yes, she got in a fight with her boyfriend, and in her mug shot, she doesn't look as pretty as she looked when she was 21 in a professional photo shoot.
00:42:32.000Oh, I got a picture of him in the military.
00:42:35.000This is a funny video, too, because this military dude, you'd think he'd know what you're talking about, talks about a semi-automatic rifle, whatever the hell that means.
00:42:43.000And it says, also in this video, hold on, I got to go to the end here.
00:42:49.000The training to use this weapon, and this weapon in the wrong hands can be more dangerous than most weapons because of its capability to do a lot of damage in a short period of time.
