00:00:00.000 There's a lot of demoralized people in the right wing of Canada or the freedom movement or whatever
00:00:07.500 you want to call it. And they saw what happened during the convoy. They saw how corrupt our
00:00:12.100 government is. And they don't see solutions, probably because there aren't many good ones.
00:00:18.620 And so they get demoralized. And I've been there. I've been there. I've totally felt that way before.
00:00:25.360 It's totally hopeless. It's so over. And I think the solution is to, first of all, address the fact
00:00:33.800 that you're demoralized and try to remoralize yourself any way that you can by working on
00:00:38.740 yourself. That's always a good first step, trying to take care of your immediate family or friends
00:00:44.500 or anyone who's around you, your immediate homestead or home or living situation or financial situation.
00:00:50.100 That's always a good place to start. But outside of that, it's important to be grounded in reality
00:00:58.160 of what is possible. We should have a sort of idealist, kind of like radical imagination in
00:01:05.380 terms of what is possible. But there's also something where it's like, okay, well, what's
00:01:09.800 realistic to do right now? What can we do right now? How am I going to reach that long-term ideal goal?
00:01:14.740 And everything I'm talking about is like solutions-oriented. That's the healthy thing.
00:01:20.680 Take care of yourself. Then assess the situation. Aspire for something great that will turn this
00:01:26.280 country around. But also look at the immediate environment and ask yourself, what can I actually
00:01:31.340 do to progress towards the goal that I want? That's the healthy thing to do. People are not doing
00:01:37.620 that. There's a lot of right-wing people who are not doing that. Maybe they're overwhelmed with
00:01:43.280 demoralization. They're overwhelmed with fear. And they think that the time is out. It's already
00:01:47.520 too late. And then they let sort of, I don't know, resentment and fear take over. And it turns into
00:01:55.160 this sort of nasty thing. And they just start kind of tearing down everyone around. They just start to
00:02:00.160 like shit on everything. They start to shit on the PPC, for example. They start to shit on Diagalon or 1.00
00:02:06.220 Jeremy McKenzie or myself or anyone who's actually trying to do something. And it's very, 0.97
00:02:12.660 and to be fair, people between Diagalon and PPC, they might be fighting back and forth and that
00:02:19.840 sort of thing. And this is what I mean. Sometimes it's productive in fighting and it's constructive
00:02:24.040 criticism or it's like pushing the person to be more aggressive or more strong and brave with their
00:02:35.200 rhetoric. But on the flip side, sometimes it's just kind of nasty and destructive and unproductive
00:02:43.360 and sort of like, it just feels like the person is trying to tear something else down because it
00:02:49.480 feels good in the moment. You know what I said about you're aspiring for a positive goal to try and turn
00:02:54.460 the country around, but you also have to look at the reality. These people are not having any sort of
00:02:59.580 aspiration for the future. They're like, it's totally over. There is no future. So what can I do with the
00:03:03.480 immediate power I have right now? I'm going to go shit on that person right there. I have the power. 0.99
00:03:08.200 I have the ability to go shit on that person and it's going to feel good. It's going to feel good 0.99
00:03:13.820 to just throw a brick through that window because fuck that it's over anyway, bro. 1.00
00:03:20.200 That's what's unproductive. That's what kind of needs to stop. I think the infighting can be good. 1.00
00:03:26.940 I think having, I think actually I want to host more debates to be honest, because I've gotten a lot
00:03:31.600 of great feedback from that debate, uh, between the ferryman's toll and, um, Alex Cargill, AKA trans
00:03:39.660 splendor. And I would like to do more debates on those topics because let's face it, there aren't
00:03:43.820 really much debates going on in Canada period. There's not going to be a debate on the CBC.
00:03:48.940 There's not going to be a debate on CTV news or city TV. There's not even going to be a debate
00:03:55.740 with the conservative party of Canada. They are very much. Nope. Like no discussion. If you become
00:04:03.840 a member, you're not even allowed to, like, you have to write all this stuff to sign your life away
00:04:08.180 to like, not talk about stuff. So there's no debate happening there either. Where's the debate
00:04:14.420 happening? It's like, quite frankly, the debate is happening online between, you know, PPC people,
00:04:24.340 diagonal on people, whatever it is. Um, maybe some, maybe a little bickering with kind of the
00:04:29.720 conservative gatekeepers, but most of the time that they just try to prop up the conservative
00:04:33.280 party, but like, there's a lot of very pressing issues going on and like, no one's really, we're
00:04:37.760 not really talking about it or parsing it out whatsoever. So, but, uh, that's pretty well,
00:04:42.800 my rant. We, we gotta, we gotta keep things productive. Um, I think in, like I said, infighting
00:04:48.720 and disagreement, I think can very be very healthy. Uh, even if it gets heated, even like I can see
00:04:54.100 if it gets like sometimes a little nasty or people kind of like, you know, mock each other a bit and
00:04:58.640 ridicule each other a bit, because that's how you can get your point across. But, um, aside from
00:05:03.780 that, you know, when it's just kind of like nasty with, with no real points that, that, that kind of
00:05:09.760 stuff, I think it's just, I think, I think I want to see that stuff. I think it's just honestly
00:05:13.400 depressing because it's like, people are just demoralized. And this is like the epitome of
00:05:17.200 losing. The epitome of losing is, you know, getting crushed by the globalist, astro search
00:05:23.520 conservative party. And then any amount of resistance is just bickering and fighting amongst each other
00:05:28.520 with no sort of, um, no sort of, um, no sort of sign that it's going to manifest into anything
00:05:36.160 productive. Um, I think conflicts are good, but it needs to turn into something positive.
