Order of Man - Dan Hollaway ｜ How to Become a Better Citizen

00:00:00.000 It seems to me that we're collectively waking up from a decades-long slumber as Americans.

00:00:05.120 Maybe it's that we can't stand to see the direction of the country,

00:00:07.900 or perhaps it's a pure level of disdain and animosity towards our elected officials.

00:00:14.000 Either way, it's good to see us getting more interested and more involved than we have in the past.

00:00:19.800 My guest today, host of the Citizen Podcast and the Drinking Bros Podcast, Dan Holloway,

00:00:25.000 joins me to talk about not only our rights as citizens,

00:00:27.960 but our obligations and responsibilities.

00:00:30.800 We talk about what it means to be a good citizen,

00:00:33.680 why we seem to get the worst of our people in politics,

00:00:37.580 how to change the tide of American politics and culture through state nullification.

00:00:42.960 That was a very interesting discussion.

00:00:45.080 Why there are no rights without associated responsibilities,

00:00:48.780 and the power of and ways men can get involved.

00:00:51.960 You're a man of action.

00:00:53.480 You live life to the fullest.

00:00:54.960 Embrace your fears and boldly chart your own path

00:00:57.640 When life knocks you down, you get back up one more time, every time.

00:01:02.360 You are not easily deterred or defeated, rugged, resilient, strong.

00:01:07.360 This is your life.

00:01:08.520 This is who you are.

00:01:09.920 This is who you will become.

00:01:11.620 At the end of the day, and after all is said and done,

00:01:14.660 you can call yourself a man.

00:01:16.580 Gentlemen, welcome to the Order of Man podcast.

00:01:22.520 Thank you for tuning in.

00:01:24.000 This is the second to last podcast of the year.

00:01:27.800 So very excited that you are here.

00:01:30.540 We've had a very, very good year.

00:01:33.320 In a lot of ways, this was a rebuilding year,

00:01:35.420 and I can't wait to see what we have in store for 2025.

00:01:38.180 So if you've been around for any amount of time

00:01:40.140 and you haven't given us a rating and review

00:01:42.440 or shared this with somebody who needs to hear the message

00:01:45.480 of reclaiming and restoring masculinity,

00:01:47.260 please do that.

00:01:48.240 This is a grassroots movement,

00:01:49.380 and I have big plans in store for us in 2025.

00:01:53.860 Before I get into the conversation,

00:01:55.140 I just want to mention my friends over at Montana Knife Company.

00:01:59.360 Now, we're a little late if you're looking for Christmas gifts,

00:02:01.520 but if you messed up, screwed up, want to get something,

00:02:05.720 even knowing that it might be a little late after Christmas,

00:02:08.000 but you feel like this would be a good gift for somebody,

00:02:10.180 I can't think of anything better

00:02:11.420 than a 100% made in America knife

00:02:14.720 made by good Americans doing good things

00:02:17.200 up in French town Montana,

00:02:18.540 and I hope you'll support them

00:02:20.900 as you get a tool that all men need, a good knife.

00:02:25.540 Check it out, montananifecompany.com,

00:02:28.020 montananifecompany.com,

00:02:29.500 and make sure you use the code ORDER OF MAN,

00:02:32.180 all one word, at checkout when you do.

00:02:35.460 Again, montananifecompany.com,

00:02:37.360 use the code ORDER OF MAN.

00:02:39.600 All right, with that said,

00:02:40.580 let me introduce you to my guest.

00:02:42.360 His name is Dan Holloway,

00:02:43.760 a former airborne infantryman in the Army

00:02:45.580 who went on to work with Black Rifle Coffee,

00:02:49.280 of course, serving veterans and communities around the world

00:02:51.400 in both of those capacities.

00:02:53.480 He's also the host of the wildly popular podcast,

00:02:55.960 The Drinking Bros,

00:02:56.860 as well as Citizen Podcast,

00:02:59.660 where he discusses all sorts of political

00:03:02.480 and cultural issues

00:03:03.920 that impact every single American today.

00:03:08.180 His no-nonsense, very pragmatic approach

00:03:10.860 to societal topics has earned him the respect

00:03:13.100 of his millions of followers and fans,

00:03:16.660 and I think you're gonna see why today.

00:03:21.440 Dan, what's up, brother?

00:03:22.500 So great to see you.

00:03:23.180 Thanks for joining me on the podcast.

00:03:25.120 Sure, how's it going?

00:03:26.180 It's going good.

00:03:26.940 It's going good.

00:03:27.500 We talked a little bit offliner

00:03:28.980 before we hit record on this.

00:03:30.300 Man, I was thinking,

00:03:31.400 this has been a long time in the works.

00:03:33.760 Even just trying to schedule,

00:03:35.020 which is on me,

00:03:35.940 was proving to be a bit of a challenge.

00:03:38.880 Yeah, you know how it is.

00:03:40.040 I mean, look,

00:03:40.720 it's also the holiday season,

00:03:42.620 which apparently now we've,

00:03:45.000 I guess we've all resigned ourselves

00:03:46.560 to let it expand over the course of three months

00:03:48.560 instead of just one,

00:03:49.440 but whatever, you know,

00:03:50.380 what are you gonna do?

00:03:51.240 It's true.

00:03:52.040 It's like the holiday season is just winter.

00:03:54.560 It's no longer Christmas or Thanksgiving,

00:03:56.620 and I remember when I was doing financial planning stuff,

00:03:59.680 I would try to schedule meetings all year round,

00:04:02.560 including the week of Christmas

00:04:04.080 and before and New Year's,

00:04:05.480 and I just learned that two weeks

00:04:07.620 is just a waste of time.

00:04:08.900 So eventually, like you said,

00:04:09.920 I resigned to it

00:04:10.800 and just took the time off

00:04:12.200 like everybody else was doing,

00:04:13.460 and it was a whole lot less stressful for me.

00:04:15.520 Yeah, I mean, we usually take the week of Christmas

00:04:20.100 until after the week of New Year's off,

00:04:24.200 typically, just to give our guys,

00:04:26.140 I mean, we have a pretty high op tempo here,

00:04:27.920 so we give our guys some time off.

00:04:29.460 I go find something to do.

00:04:31.300 I can't be still for too long,

00:04:33.060 but yeah, I don't know what they do, actually.

00:04:35.780 I don't ask.

00:04:36.420 It's none of my business,

00:04:37.180 but yeah, it is consuming, I guess,

00:04:43.400 and then, you know, when you're in media,

00:04:44.880 probably more so

00:04:46.080 because you're just talking about stuff all the time,

00:04:47.940 I think one of our issues as a,

00:04:52.100 well, this isn't the issue itself,

00:04:53.920 but it's one of the things that causes these issues

00:04:57.420 is that there isn't 24 hours worth of news,

00:04:59.780 you know what I mean?

00:05:00.480 Yeah.

00:05:01.200 But we've got like six separate 24-hour news channels,

00:05:06.160 so they just make stuff up, right?

00:05:09.220 It's like, oh, they just wildly speculate,

00:05:12.300 and I don't think the average media consumer

00:05:14.640 has the time or is read in enough

00:05:19.520 to know the difference between somebody speculating

00:05:21.780 and somebody giving their educated opinion,

00:05:24.520 and you know, those are close to the same thing.

00:05:26.820 It's neither one of them are the facts,

00:05:28.760 but an educated opinion from a so-called expert

00:05:31.660 is something that a lot of people do take seriously, right?

00:05:34.660 Yeah, they take it as fact.

00:05:35.680 It causes a lot of problems.

00:05:36.740 Yeah, it causes a lot of problems.

00:05:38.400 Well, it is interesting.

00:05:39.380 I get the occasional,

00:05:40.900 I'll share something on Instagram,

00:05:42.300 and I get the occasional comment of,

00:05:44.360 well, that's just your opinion.

00:05:45.880 Well, yeah, of course it's my opinion.

00:05:48.280 Do I need to preface every thought I have

00:05:50.280 with this is just my opinion?

00:05:52.080 But apparently I need to do that

00:05:53.580 because so many people, to your point,

00:05:55.620 cannot differentiate between an opinion

00:05:57.640 and factual truth.

00:05:59.740 Yeah, I can't say, like,

00:06:00.600 people on Twitter, X, whatever you want to call it,

00:06:02.660 that have opinions on my own in their bio,

00:06:06.280 it's like, yeah, that's what an opinion is,

00:06:07.700 you fucking dummy.

00:06:09.120 What the hell are you talking about?

00:06:10.440 That's what this is for.

00:06:12.440 Oh, my God.

00:06:14.100 I mean, I guess that's just a function

00:06:15.800 of people having real jobs

00:06:17.480 and not wanting to get fired or whatever,

00:06:18.740 but, like, nobody thinks that Dave,

00:06:22.340 the grocery bagger from Walmart,

00:06:24.880 is speaking on behalf of Walmart corporate.

00:06:27.260 I don't think anybody's making that leap,

00:06:28.640 probably, right?

00:06:30.040 I mean, I don't think that,

00:06:32.320 but I would be willing to bet

00:06:34.340 that a person is willing to make that leap

00:06:36.920 if it means that they can punish that person

00:06:39.080 for wrong think.

00:06:40.740 Sure, yeah.

00:06:41.600 I mean, it's the inverse of, you know,

00:06:45.480 kind of what you're taught in debating.

00:06:49.780 I don't know if you did this in high school,

00:06:52.080 but when I was in high school,

00:06:53.160 middle and high school,

00:06:54.020 we had something called

00:06:55.860 Lincoln-Douglas debates, right?

00:06:57.340 And the purpose of that

00:06:59.480 was to pit two groups against each other.

00:07:03.360 And it didn't matter what the topic was.

00:07:05.240 You had to choose...

00:07:06.660 You didn't choose which side

00:07:08.180 you were going to defend.

00:07:08.980 You were handed an assignment, right?

00:07:10.780 Like, defend this action

00:07:12.460 or defend this policy.

00:07:14.080 Not based on your opinion,

00:07:15.540 but go find...

00:07:16.280 Go steel man this argument,

00:07:17.500 essentially is what it is, right?

00:07:18.940 And it's a very good exercise.

00:07:20.280 And it's based on or it's based on

00:07:25.600 and meant to help people understand

00:07:28.400 and evolve this thing called

00:07:30.140 the principle of charity,

00:07:31.100 which is this idea from...

00:07:33.180 I can't remember the guy's name,

00:07:34.080 but he was a first century Jewish historian, right?

00:07:36.660 And he wrote about philosophy and stuff as well.

00:07:40.700 I think he was in...

00:07:41.820 If I'm not mistaken,

00:07:42.600 he was a writer in Rome.

00:07:44.720 But he...

00:07:46.660 Like, you should take people

00:07:49.140 at the best possible meaning first

00:07:51.280 until they prove they can't be trusted, right?

00:07:53.360 So if somebody says something

00:07:54.500 and your immediate response is,

00:07:56.240 so what you're saying is

00:07:57.040 followed by the worst possible interpretation of that,

00:07:59.320 you're an asshole.

00:08:00.200 And you're not debating in good faith.

00:08:02.800 You're just...

00:08:03.620 This is why people get, you know,

00:08:05.920 further and further entrenched

00:08:07.080 in their own positions

00:08:08.060 and lose all sensibility.

00:08:11.620 You know what I mean?

00:08:11.920 They become very...

00:08:13.080 I don't know if myopic is the right word,

00:08:14.900 but they certainly can't see

00:08:16.480 beyond their own bias at that point,

00:08:18.460 which is a problem, right?

00:08:19.380 You shouldn't be defending...

00:08:20.640 You shouldn't be defending things

00:08:23.600 that are not correct.

00:08:24.720 What sense does that make?

00:08:25.900 You know what I mean?

00:08:26.340 And it boils over into our politics a lot,

00:08:30.000 especially with how tribal things have become.

00:08:32.700 Whether you're a Trump fan

00:08:34.060 or not a Trump fan

00:08:35.400 and you're Republican

00:08:36.280 or whether you're a Democrat

00:08:37.520 and you're a fan of this person

00:08:38.960 or that person,

00:08:40.400 when you hit your wagon

00:08:41.740 to somebody like that,

00:08:42.740 you end up having to defend

00:08:45.160 indefensible positions, right?

00:08:47.400 Like, if you're a MAGA person

00:08:50.000 and somebody says,

00:08:51.040 well, I don't like the fact that Trump,

00:08:52.860 how he handled COVID stuff,

00:08:54.860 I don't like how he banned bump stocks

00:08:56.900 and blah, blah, blah.

00:08:57.720 Like, these are violations of our rights.

00:08:59.720 And they'll defend that.

00:09:01.140 Like, well, you're just a neocon

00:09:03.540 or just that.

00:09:04.180 Like, no, dude.

00:09:04.660 My Bible insofar as politics goes

00:09:08.340 is the Constitution.

00:09:09.480 You know what I mean?

00:09:10.520 I don't care about these individual personalities

00:09:12.740 and neither should you, right?

00:09:13.920 I mean, you should,

00:09:14.460 your loyalty to a politician

00:09:16.540 or a political party

00:09:17.360 should extend

00:09:17.980 just as far as their loyalty

00:09:19.720 to the Constitution does

00:09:20.820 and no further.

00:09:21.320 Yeah, I agree.

00:09:23.640 I was actually going to bring that up

00:09:24.640 because you had mentioned that on X

00:09:25.920 just the other day.

00:09:27.460 But yeah, I do like that principle of charity.

00:09:29.780 It's, you know,

00:09:32.460 I hate, for example,

00:09:33.200 when people play like devil's advocate,

00:09:35.180 they don't believe anything.

00:09:36.300 They just want to stir shit up.

00:09:37.620 It's like, what are you doing?

00:09:38.880 Like, why are you doing that?

00:09:40.240 Um, or another one that I often see

00:09:42.220 is judging motives.

00:09:44.020 You know, somebody will make a comment

00:09:45.240 and they'll judge

00:09:46.180 what the person's motive is

00:09:47.680 as if they have an inside glimpse

00:09:49.120 into their brain.

00:09:50.200 But, but there was another quote

00:09:51.800 that came to mind

00:09:52.500 when you were talking about this,

00:09:53.820 uh, with this principle of charity

00:09:55.480 and that is, uh,

00:09:56.540 never attribute to malice

00:09:57.920 what could be attributed to stupidity.

00:10:00.520 Uh, yeah, that's Hanlon's razor.

00:10:02.480 Oh, it's so, it's so good

00:10:04.100 because again, you're giving somebody

00:10:05.700 a little bit of the benefit of the doubt

00:10:07.660 and you're just saying

00:10:08.400 maybe this person is ignorant

00:10:09.660 and they're not really as malicious

00:10:11.280 as you think they are.

00:10:12.400 I think it affords an opportunity

00:10:15.980 for, uh, an intelligent discussion

00:10:18.400 as opposed to there,

00:10:19.360 you're an evil person

00:10:20.340 and you need to die.

00:10:21.960 Yeah. Yeah.

00:10:22.680 I mean, it's, uh, you know,

00:10:24.620 this is, this is one of our big problems.

00:10:26.980 Um, we're trying to, uh,

00:10:29.200 Robert Hanlon, by the way,

00:10:30.140 from Scranton, Pennsylvania,

00:10:31.320 the same place that Joe Biden's from

00:10:32.980 the same place that Dunder Mifflin's from.

00:10:35.800 Uh, it's, there's, um,

00:10:38.180 there's a problem we have now

00:10:42.240 where it's, I guess it's just part

00:10:44.720 of this microwave culture

00:10:45.840 where we want to,

00:10:46.960 we want to know things

00:10:49.120 but we don't want to understand them, right?

00:10:50.920 Like, we have no tolerance

00:10:52.000 to do the work required

00:10:53.680 to understand things.

00:10:54.660 We'll take a pill to lose weight

00:10:55.880 instead of just exercising

00:10:57.000 and eating good food.

00:10:58.120 It's pervasive throughout

00:10:59.340 all of our culture

00:11:00.100 and every part of it.

00:11:00.940 Um, one of the very base realities

00:11:05.580 of life,

00:11:06.760 and it's something that's true

00:11:07.820 for everybody,

00:11:08.500 is that what you want

00:11:10.120 is on the other side

00:11:11.860 of pain, right?

00:11:13.760 You've got to get through some pain,

00:11:15.120 some inconvenience

00:11:15.880 to get what you want,

00:11:16.720 what you need,

00:11:17.640 whatever the case is.

00:11:18.960 And, uh, you know,

00:11:19.960 the lower and lower

00:11:20.560 our tolerance gets for that,

00:11:21.660 the more and more we depend

00:11:22.960 on undependable

00:11:25.420 and untrustworthy people

00:11:26.600 to provide those things for us,

00:11:28.160 whether it be safety,

00:11:29.020 security, shelter, food,

00:11:30.980 whatever, right?

00:11:31.700 And you see it.

00:11:32.580 Like, we, we surrendered our,

00:11:34.700 we surrendered our food,

00:11:36.840 uh, uh, sourcing

00:11:38.320 to people that wanted

00:11:39.820 to turn it into a commodity

00:11:41.180 instead of a necessity.

00:11:42.980 And they made it

00:11:44.060 as cheap as possible.

00:11:45.120 They found the cheapest

00:11:46.280 high-calorie stuff

00:11:47.260 they could find.

00:11:48.140 And at this point

00:11:49.460 in American, uh, culture,

00:11:51.380 about 68% of all calories

00:11:54.040 that are consumed

00:11:54.820 are ultra-processed, right?

00:11:56.840 Things that give you

00:11:57.720 diabetes and cancer.

00:11:59.020 68% of our diet is that.

00:12:01.200 And that's silly, right?

00:12:02.620 Like, you, you couldn't,

00:12:03.980 with all the facts

00:12:05.000 on the table

00:12:05.600 and talking to somebody

00:12:07.340 who actually understands

00:12:08.280 any of this,

00:12:08.920 you would never be able

00:12:10.020 to convince that person

00:12:10.880 to eat this stuff

00:12:11.660 on a regular basis,

00:12:12.800 especially not 70%

00:12:13.900 of their diet.

00:12:14.860 But, you know,

00:12:15.840 if you, if you create

00:12:17.740 this system where people

00:12:18.660 are dependent on you,

00:12:19.780 then you're,

00:12:20.940 you're pretty much set, right?

00:12:22.040 You can sell them anything.

00:12:23.000 If, if you, if you,

00:12:24.180 and, and this goes back

00:12:25.820 to some other, uh,

00:12:26.820 things people have been

00:12:28.020 saying a lot recently,

00:12:28.780 but, um,

00:12:30.360 and it doesn't just apply

00:12:32.540 to the state

00:12:33.180 or the government,

00:12:33.780 but if you allow

00:12:36.080 power, whatever it is,

00:12:39.260 state, government,

00:12:40.600 whatever, um,

00:12:42.420 to break their own rules

00:12:44.000 in a, in an emergency,

00:12:45.820 they will create emergencies.

00:12:47.180 Of course,

00:12:48.100 they will create them

00:12:49.100 so that we see those rules.

00:12:50.620 Yeah.

00:12:50.980 We saw that with COVID,

00:12:52.120 you know, and, and maybe

00:12:53.420 we can agree or disagree

00:12:54.980 on the efficacy of some

00:12:56.140 of the things that were

00:12:57.000 put in place,

00:12:57.780 but clearly, uh,

00:12:59.600 there was an overreach

00:13:00.780 of power and authority

00:13:01.840 and it was a testing ground

00:13:03.520 to see how much

00:13:04.660 we would tolerate.

00:13:05.380 And unfortunately,

00:13:06.200 we tolerated all of it.

00:13:09.280 Hmm.

00:13:10.920 Yeah.

00:13:11.320 Well, except for during

00:13:12.200 the, uh, George Floyd stuff,

00:13:13.540 they were allowed to go out

00:13:14.400 and protest and shout

00:13:15.580 in each other's faces

00:13:16.440 and spread disease,

00:13:17.340 but well, well again,

00:13:19.060 but that's, that's to me,

00:13:20.760 that's another test

00:13:21.960 to see if the,

00:13:23.380 if certain groups,

00:13:25.060 certain protected classes

00:13:26.240 are allowed to behave

00:13:27.640 in certain ways

00:13:28.380 where other groups are not.

00:13:30.100 And that even though,

00:13:31.460 yes, break the rules

00:13:32.320 of the COVID restrictions,

00:13:33.560 that was also a test to see,

00:13:35.700 is this something

00:13:36.460 that we can get away with?

00:13:38.260 Yeah.

00:13:39.240 Yeah.

00:13:39.680 I mean, it's all silly, right?

00:13:40.860 And it just, again,

00:13:42.320 I want to bring it back

00:13:43.120 to the point,

00:13:43.840 which is that

00:13:44.740 you have to think about,

00:13:49.540 you have to think about,

00:13:51.720 uh, life in this way.

00:13:54.320 Um,

00:13:55.500 resilience is probably

00:13:56.820 the most important feature

00:13:58.220 that you can have

00:13:59.000 as a human being, right?

00:14:00.840 I mean, certainly strength,

00:14:02.620 kindness,

00:14:02.900 and all these things

00:14:03.580 are very important,

00:14:04.300 but, uh,

00:14:06.100 without resilience,

00:14:07.020 all of this goes away

00:14:08.400 and you don't have

00:14:09.220 the opportunity

00:14:09.760 to be strong and kind

00:14:10.960 and use your strength

00:14:11.900 for what it matters for,

00:14:12.980 right?

00:14:13.200 So you have to be resilient.

00:14:14.560 And one of the ways

00:14:15.160 that you are resilient

00:14:15.920 is something

00:14:16.560 in the security field

00:14:17.780 we call it defense in depth,

00:14:19.060 right?

00:14:19.240 Which is multiple layers

00:14:20.240 of, uh, security, right?

00:14:21.980 So think of, um,

00:14:23.780 think of like, um,

00:14:27.080 a man, uh,

00:14:27.980 an ID access

00:14:29.140 with magnetic doors

00:14:31.280 and a man trap.

00:14:32.240 A man trap is where

00:14:33.120 you can't open the next door

00:14:34.340 until the previous door

00:14:35.160 is closed, right?

00:14:35.920 So if you try to pull

00:14:37.060 some bullshit,

00:14:37.700 you're, you're locked

00:14:38.360 in that room, right?

00:14:38.780 You're stuck in there.

00:14:39.380 That's, that's two layers

00:14:40.400 of security,

00:14:41.060 one of which is

00:14:42.600 essentially impenetrable.

00:14:43.840 So that's what we would

00:14:45.200 consider defense in depth.

00:14:46.400 Now, if you don't know

00:14:47.360 anything about biology,

00:14:49.120 if you don't know

00:14:49.580 anything about how diet works,

00:14:51.160 how your body converts

00:14:52.180 food into energy

00:14:53.120 and all this stuff,

00:14:53.920 then somebody can come

00:14:55.600 and sell you

00:14:56.100 high fructose corn syrup.

00:14:57.220 Like, hey, this is way cheaper

00:14:58.840 and you're going to get

00:14:59.300 the same amount of calories.

00:15:00.300 Like, oh, that sounds great

00:15:01.420 on the surface, right?

00:15:02.220 But if you look

00:15:03.340 just a little bit deeper,

00:15:04.200 you know that that's all bullshit,

00:15:05.520 right?

00:15:05.800 You know, the high fructose

00:15:06.760 corn syrup was used

00:15:08.020 prior to being introduced

00:15:09.320 into the human diet

00:15:10.120 in the 1940s

00:15:11.100 to fatten up pigs

00:15:12.100 before slaughter, right?

00:15:13.440 Like you, you,

00:15:14.060 you would know that

00:15:14.700 you just had to look

00:15:15.460 and having institutional

00:15:18.000 knowledge means

00:15:19.040 having a deep understanding

00:15:20.380 of the things

00:15:20.940 that are going on around you.

00:15:21.820 Now, not every person

00:15:22.840 has got the time

00:15:23.640 to look into all this shit.

00:15:25.280 Um, you know,

00:15:26.760 single mom with two kids

00:15:28.160 and two jobs

00:15:29.000 isn't sitting up at night

00:15:30.600 reading about,

00:15:31.780 listening to Andrew Huberman

00:15:33.080 talk about, you know,

00:15:33.900 health and shit like that.

00:15:35.640 So, you know,

00:15:36.840 it is a problem.

00:15:37.960 So it's, it's incumbent upon

00:15:39.760 people who have

00:15:41.080 the capability to do it

00:15:42.160 because it's,

00:15:42.840 it is a lot like

00:15:43.820 inoculation.

00:15:45.340 It's, it's,

00:15:46.460 there is a herd immunity

00:15:47.600 created when enough people

00:15:48.740 know that something's bullshit.

00:15:50.500 And this goes,

00:15:52.100 like I'm using diet

00:15:53.000 as an example here

00:15:55.420 because it's very obvious

00:15:56.640 how we're being poisoned.

00:15:57.940 It's a little less obvious

00:15:59.500 how some of the rights

00:16:01.500 we have that are being

00:16:02.260 chipped away at

00:16:03.080 are being poisoned, right?

00:16:04.320 It's not,

00:16:04.860 it's not quite the same.

00:16:05.840 Like it's the boiling frog

00:16:07.300 thing, right?

00:16:07.840 Right.

00:16:08.600 Frogs in the water

00:16:09.460 turn up the heat

00:16:10.000 a little bit at a time.

00:16:11.300 And there are also

00:16:13.480 multiple, um, uh,

00:16:16.600 points of attack

00:16:17.740 going on, right?

00:16:18.640 No, like certainly

00:16:20.000 the radical people

00:16:20.900 might say,

00:16:21.520 oh, we're going to

00:16:21.960 end the second amendment.

00:16:23.020 Right.

00:16:23.400 But the, the other,

00:16:24.480 other people will say,

00:16:25.360 oh, well, um,

00:16:27.120 you know, uh,

00:16:28.820 uh, American citizens,

00:16:30.280 the regular citizen

00:16:31.260 doesn't have any business

00:16:32.760 owning a weapon,

00:16:33.640 a quote unquote

00:16:34.100 weapon of war.

00:16:34.920 Right.

00:16:35.500 And people are like,

00:16:36.480 oh, they hear that

00:16:37.200 and it's a platitude

00:16:37.900 and they're like,

00:16:38.300 oh yeah, we don't want

00:16:39.160 people getting into fucking,

00:16:40.960 right.

00:16:41.660 Yeah.

00:16:41.980 But then you,

00:16:42.780 you know,

00:16:43.280 they create this bucket

00:16:44.760 called weapon of war

00:16:46.780 and then they drop

00:16:47.380 every weapon into it.

00:16:48.280 This is what California

00:16:49.040 has done.

00:16:49.860 California went,

00:16:50.700 went from having,

00:16:51.560 um,

00:16:52.320 certain guns

00:16:53.060 they would not approve

00:16:54.120 for, for purchase

00:16:55.660 in California

00:16:56.320 to now they have a list

00:16:57.400 of the only guns

00:16:58.300 you can buy in California.

00:16:59.400 Right.

00:16:59.820 And they will,

00:17:00.540 they will slowly chip away

00:17:01.700 at that list

00:17:02.220 until nothing's left.

00:17:03.280 Right.

00:17:03.660 Right now you can't

00:17:04.320 buy a new Glock,

00:17:05.100 can't buy a Gen 5 Glock

00:17:06.120 in California.

00:17:07.800 Right.

00:17:08.320 I mean, it's,

00:17:08.800 it's crazy.

00:17:09.720 The whole thing is retarded,

00:17:10.620 but that's how it works.

00:17:11.300 Right.

00:17:11.460 It's the boiling frog thing.

00:17:12.440 They don't take everything

00:17:13.400 all at once.

00:17:13.900 They fucking,

00:17:14.620 they create something

00:17:15.760 that sounds good,

00:17:16.660 like the Patriot Act.

00:17:18.140 That sounds good.

00:17:18.920 I'm a Patriot.

00:17:19.920 I'll do that.

00:17:20.760 What it really meant

00:17:21.440 was we're going to spy on you.

00:17:22.580 Look at your bank accounts.

00:17:23.840 Yeah.

00:17:24.080 Use that information against you.

00:17:25.500 We found out recently

00:17:26.660 that

00:17:27.140 the people got alarmed

00:17:30.780 about the fact

00:17:31.520 that there were 26

00:17:33.500 FBI confidential informants

00:17:35.500 at the protest

00:17:36.380 of January 6th.

00:17:37.540 The thing you should be

00:17:38.460 alarmed about

00:17:39.040 is that only three of them

00:17:40.420 were there on FBI orders.

00:17:41.620 The other 23

00:17:42.380 were there

00:17:43.160 because they were part

00:17:43.940 of that group.

00:17:44.720 Right.

00:17:45.160 They were Republicans.

00:17:46.600 What does that tell you?

00:17:47.520 It tells you that the FBI

00:17:48.620 has been spying

00:17:49.540 on ordinary Republicans

00:17:50.880 for years now.

00:17:52.160 Right.

00:17:52.880 Why otherwise

00:17:53.560 why would you have 23

00:17:54.880 and that's only the ones

00:17:56.260 that showed up that day.

00:17:57.320 Right.

00:17:57.680 So you're talking about

00:17:58.320 dozens of confidential informants

00:18:00.380 who are just ordinary

00:18:01.220 day-to-day Republicans.

00:18:02.600 That's it.

00:18:03.540 So why would this

00:18:04.920 Department of Justice

00:18:06.200 in this country

00:18:07.460 which I think sounds

00:18:08.580 Orwellian in the first place

00:18:10.300 why would the Department of Justice

00:18:11.800 be

00:18:12.660 spying on American citizens

00:18:16.120 like this

00:18:16.720 that are their political rivals?

00:18:19.120 I mean it's very clear

00:18:20.080 what's happening here.

00:18:20.860 You know what I mean?

00:18:22.020 So you know

00:18:23.220 it's it's

00:18:24.740 a lot of these things

00:18:25.580 sound good

00:18:26.160 but I can tell you

00:18:27.500 the least trustworthy person

00:18:28.800 on the planet

00:18:29.420 is a politician.

00:18:30.660 They are the worst people

00:18:31.520 in the world.

00:18:32.780 You cannot say

00:18:33.540 believe a thing

00:18:34.520 that comes out of their mouths.

00:18:37.320 What is

00:18:37.920 I mean

00:18:38.260 I don't think you're wrong

00:18:39.000 but just what a sad thought

00:18:40.500 that that's the place

00:18:41.640 that we are

00:18:42.300 where you know

00:18:43.320 I think about things

00:18:44.580 like these

00:18:45.140 a friend of mine

00:18:46.540 and I were talking

00:18:47.120 about these drones

00:18:47.980 back east

00:18:49.220 and it's like

00:18:50.260 he's like

00:18:51.320 oh I can't believe

00:18:52.020 we would

00:18:52.340 we couldn't take

00:18:53.000 these things down

00:18:53.860 or we don't know

00:18:54.680 what's going on.

00:18:55.440 No

00:18:55.600 we absolutely know

00:18:57.460 what's going on.

00:18:58.520 Not we as citizens

00:18:59.560 but the government

00:19:00.440 politicians

00:19:01.060 absolutely

00:19:01.920 know what's going on.

00:19:04.480 We just don't know

00:19:05.620 because we're not privy

00:19:06.700 to that information

00:19:08.280 because it's nefarious.

00:19:10.420 That's why

00:19:10.980 if it wasn't

00:19:11.920 we'd have access to it.

00:19:13.120 Yeah it's a big club

00:19:14.940 and you ain't in it.

00:19:15.620 That's what George Carlin

00:19:16.420 used to say

00:19:16.980 and he's absolutely right.

00:19:19.240 Yeah I mean

00:19:19.540 those are

00:19:19.900 those are U.S.

00:19:20.840 government drones.

00:19:22.220 As soon as they

00:19:24.160 popped up into the sky

00:19:25.260 and nobody

00:19:25.780 immediately shot them down

00:19:26.920 it's a spy balloon

00:19:28.280 that we jam

00:19:28.960 like that spy balloon

00:19:30.600 I understand

00:19:31.340 what they were trying to do.

00:19:32.420 It looked bad.

00:19:33.080 The optics were bad

00:19:33.840 but they were

00:19:34.840 trying to do collections

00:19:36.420 on the balloon

00:19:37.160 while it was flying around

00:19:38.180 to see what it was

00:19:38.940 looking for right.

00:19:40.240 They basically set up

00:19:42.220 they basically set up

00:19:44.120 what's similar

00:19:45.520 to a stingray.

00:19:46.680 You know what a stingray is?

00:19:47.640 No.

00:19:47.840 Like it captures

00:19:49.040 cell tower data right

00:19:50.160 so it sits

00:19:50.720 it's a man in the middle

00:19:51.440 attack that sits

00:19:52.180 between the cellular device

00:19:54.240 and the cell tower

00:19:55.000 so everything comes

00:19:56.120 directly through it

00:19:56.820 which means no encryption

00:19:57.860 none of that stuff.

00:19:58.520 You can read everything

00:19:59.260 that's going on.

00:20:00.420 So basically what they

00:20:01.020 want to do

00:20:01.560 is set up a man

00:20:02.540 in the middle attack

00:20:03.300 and capture

00:20:04.480 every request

00:20:05.680 every packet request

00:20:06.640 that's going out

00:20:07.400 from that balloon

00:20:08.020 capture device right

00:20:08.940 to see what it's doing

00:20:09.880 but still it looks bad

00:20:10.800 like you can do that

00:20:11.640 in five minutes

00:20:12.180 and then blow that thing up.

00:20:14.140 As soon as the drones

00:20:15.320 were up for more

00:20:17.120 than a couple of hours

00:20:17.920 and nobody did anything

00:20:18.580 about it

00:20:18.980 it became very obvious

00:20:20.520 that it's the government

00:20:21.340 right.

00:20:22.020 So the question then

00:20:22.980 is what the hell

00:20:23.700 are they doing?

00:20:24.360 Yeah for what?

00:20:26.460 You know the government

00:20:27.360 lies about everything

00:20:28.220 so you can't trust them

00:20:29.740 but they could have

00:20:31.540 done a better job

00:20:32.440 like hey we're doing

00:20:33.960 something

00:20:34.560 it's a training thing

00:20:35.780 and people would have

00:20:36.960 been like oh that's weird

00:20:38.060 you know a lot of

00:20:39.640 a lot of folks

00:20:40.400 on the French side

00:20:41.260 would have been like

00:20:41.760 oh that's like Jade Helm

00:20:42.920 Jade Helm was no big deal

00:20:43.960 by the way

00:20:44.300 it was like police

00:20:45.440 getting trained

00:20:46.060 by the federal government

00:20:46.960 to respond to like

00:20:48.460 terrorist shit

00:20:49.880 you know what I mean

00:20:50.320 it wasn't that big a deal

00:20:51.160 but yeah it's like

00:20:53.780 you got to tell people

00:20:55.260 something

00:20:55.780 at some point

00:20:56.720 I mean the best way

00:20:57.420 to lie is to infuse

00:20:58.500 a little bit of truth

00:20:59.640 so it's believable

00:21:00.660 not just blatantly

00:21:02.040 you know make it so obvious

00:21:03.360 like whatever

00:21:05.340 whatever story

00:21:06.200 they're telling

00:21:06.660 like infuse a little bit

00:21:07.840 of truth

00:21:08.280 and then that makes

00:21:08.860 it a little bit

00:21:09.280 more digestible

00:21:10.160 for the average person

00:21:11.240 yeah but they didn't even try

00:21:11.800 no I don't even try

00:21:12.860 they didn't say anything

00:21:13.720 which you know

00:21:14.240 to be fair

00:21:14.920 to be fair

00:21:16.360 there's a president

00:21:17.080 if you want to call him that

00:21:18.580 that has vascular dementia

00:21:19.700 and has for years

00:21:21.160 and has no idea

00:21:22.920 what the hell is going on

00:21:23.840 in life

00:21:24.220 so you know

00:21:25.880 pardoning Chinese spies

00:21:27.240 and pedophiles

00:21:28.060 and stuff like that

00:21:28.820 so who knows

00:21:30.260 what's actually going on

00:21:31.280 with this guy

00:21:32.700 but you know anyways

00:21:33.540 back to the main point

00:21:35.120 we have got to

00:21:40.140 insulate ourselves

00:21:41.920 from some of this stuff

00:21:43.340 because

00:21:43.800 the sad reality

00:21:46.160 is that people

00:21:47.820 who desire power

00:21:49.140 very rarely deserve it

00:21:51.180 and people who deserve it

00:21:52.140 very rarely desire it

00:21:53.300 right

00:21:53.560 so

00:21:54.400 when you look

00:21:56.740 at a politician

00:21:57.440 typically that's the guy

00:21:59.040 like you

00:21:59.340 you should start

00:22:00.580 from this baseline

00:22:01.420 that guy thinks

00:22:02.200 he deserves

00:22:02.760 to have control

00:22:03.460 over me

00:22:03.900 that should be

00:22:04.680 their first thought

00:22:05.440 when you're thinking

00:22:05.860 even if it's a friend

00:22:06.660 of yours

00:22:07.020 right

00:22:07.380 and I'm not saying

00:22:08.700 that you should

00:22:09.060 hate your friends

00:22:09.640 just because

00:22:10.020 they become politicians

00:22:10.920 but you should

00:22:12.860 begin with that

00:22:13.680 evaluation

00:22:14.140 they should be

00:22:14.640 treated with

00:22:15.500 with contempt

00:22:16.720 and distrust

00:22:17.580 yeah

00:22:18.040 always

00:22:18.920 right

00:22:19.180 that's how

00:22:19.980 we set up

00:22:20.500 our government

00:22:20.980 like the founding

00:22:21.760 documentation

00:22:22.240 of our government

00:22:22.960 says hey

00:22:23.360 if you guys

00:22:23.780 fuck up

00:22:24.260 we're gonna tear

00:22:24.780 this whole thing

00:22:25.300 down

00:22:25.640 just like we

00:22:26.340 just did

00:22:26.940 to the largest

00:22:27.740 empire

00:22:28.260 that's ever

00:22:28.880 existed on earth

00:22:29.660 the largest

00:22:30.380 military

00:22:30.860 the most powerful

00:22:31.400 military

00:22:31.760 that's ever

00:22:32.200 existed

00:22:32.580 a bunch of

00:22:33.400 farmers

00:22:33.760 wiped them

00:22:34.280 out

00:22:34.520 right

00:22:35.060 and kicked

00:22:35.380 them off

00:22:35.700 of our

00:22:35.920 continent

00:22:36.280 and we'll

00:22:37.720 do it again

00:22:38.300 if you

00:22:38.600 fuck up

00:22:39.060 that's the

00:22:40.000 underlying

00:22:40.480 premise of

00:22:41.040 america

00:22:41.440 it's that

00:22:41.900 individual liberty

00:22:43.020 and personal

00:22:43.540 entrepreneurship

00:22:44.100 are the ultimate

00:22:45.180 inoculation to

00:22:46.020 tyrannical bullshit

00:22:46.940 and we'll prove it

00:22:47.780 if we have to

00:22:48.460 and we wrote it

00:22:49.020 down on paper

00:22:49.640 just so you can

00:22:50.320 fucking remember

00:22:50.900 that shit

00:22:51.400 well i i think

00:22:54.180 how how likely

00:22:56.060 do you think

00:22:56.640 that even is

00:22:58.020 at this point

00:22:58.640 i really believe

00:22:59.860 that for the

00:23:01.420 most part

00:23:02.060 everybody has

00:23:03.720 too much to

00:23:04.460 lose

00:23:04.860 to even want

00:23:06.720 to entertain

00:23:07.380 thoughts like

00:23:08.100 that

00:23:08.400 sure yeah

00:23:09.580 yeah i mean

00:23:10.180 it's um

00:23:11.800 what what we're

00:23:13.080 not going to

00:23:13.560 see is some

00:23:14.080 kind of mass

00:23:14.820 revolt at the

00:23:15.620 federal level

00:23:16.220 um that that's

00:23:18.200 just not going

00:23:18.520 to happen

00:23:18.820 the bureaucracy

00:23:19.600 is too deep

00:23:20.440 at this point

00:23:21.000 there's three

00:23:21.960 million government

00:23:22.620 employees there's

00:23:23.360 twenty thousand

00:23:23.900 people or so

00:23:24.620 in the administration

00:23:25.340 itself you know

00:23:26.740 what i mean

00:23:27.020 um that is

00:23:29.420 it's it's not

00:23:32.260 the kind it's

00:23:32.940 not a smart

00:23:33.600 thing to even

00:23:35.260 consider any

00:23:36.220 kind of kinetic

00:23:36.860 warfare against that

00:23:37.940 it doesn't make

00:23:38.460 sense right that's

00:23:39.280 not how like

00:23:40.120 forget about

00:23:40.600 whether it's

00:23:41.080 morally just or

00:23:42.040 any of this

00:23:42.320 stuff that's

00:23:43.060 not it's not

00:23:43.640 smart to do

00:23:44.520 that right it's

00:23:45.340 tactically it's

00:23:46.180 not sound um

00:23:47.660 but there is a

00:23:48.960 roadmap that we've

00:23:49.660 seen relatively

00:23:50.300 recently about

00:23:51.620 how you can

00:23:52.240 do some of

00:23:52.760 this stuff

00:23:53.260 um and it's

00:23:54.000 a process

00:23:54.400 called

00:23:54.680 nullification

00:23:55.340 so nullification

00:23:58.220 is um

00:23:59.220 when primarily

00:24:01.520 the big the

00:24:02.300 best example

00:24:02.800 is when a

00:24:03.180 state tells

00:24:03.820 the federal

00:24:04.180 government

00:24:04.440 to go

00:24:04.680 itself which

00:24:05.540 texas has

00:24:06.060 been doing

00:24:06.340 quite a bit

00:24:06.800 recently with

00:24:07.580 the border

00:24:08.120 security stuff

00:24:08.920 um but

00:24:10.320 it's there

00:24:10.900 there are

00:24:11.160 two more

00:24:11.540 recent or

00:24:12.160 two recent

00:24:12.740 examples

00:24:13.260 of nullification

00:24:15.520 not only

00:24:16.580 working well

00:24:17.560 at the

00:24:17.940 state level

00:24:18.520 but also

00:24:20.260 becoming

00:24:20.820 pervasive

00:24:21.820 throughout the

00:24:22.380 united states

00:24:23.160 um the

00:24:25.240 first one

00:24:25.860 was uh

00:24:27.540 marriage equality

00:24:28.540 or gay marriage

00:24:29.400 as people

00:24:29.820 like to call

00:24:30.620 it

00:24:30.900 california

00:24:32.940 massachusetts

00:24:33.620 said we're

00:24:34.260 going to allow

00:24:34.900 this new

00:24:35.520 hampshire as

00:24:36.040 well said

00:24:36.460 we're going

00:24:36.720 to allow

00:24:37.020 this and

00:24:37.360 there's not

00:24:37.580 a fucking

00:24:37.880 thing you

00:24:38.180 can do

00:24:38.360 at vermont

00:24:38.940 they're like

00:24:39.860 we're going

00:24:40.240 to do it

00:24:40.620 and we

00:24:40.860 don't give

00:24:41.080 a shit

00:24:41.300 what you

00:24:41.500 think

00:24:41.780 right

00:24:42.440 it was a

00:24:42.820 federal law

00:24:43.340 you can't

00:24:43.720 do it

00:24:44.260 and four

00:24:45.880 or five

00:24:46.160 states were

00:24:46.580 like yeah

00:24:46.860 we're doing

00:24:47.180 it so

00:24:47.600 fuck you

00:24:48.620 gonna do

00:24:49.020 you know

00:24:49.460 what i mean

00:24:49.700 that's

00:24:50.220 nullification

00:24:50.820 um and

00:24:52.260 it worked

00:24:52.660 it took

00:24:53.080 about

00:24:53.460 from that

00:24:54.180 from that

00:24:54.520 process

00:24:54.960 in the

00:24:55.220 early 2000s

00:24:56.120 between

00:24:56.740 2003 and

00:24:57.700 2005

00:24:58.180 it took

00:24:59.220 another

00:24:59.680 eight to

00:25:01.020 about eight

00:25:01.800 and a half

00:25:02.140 years or so

00:25:02.780 before it

00:25:03.200 was the

00:25:03.480 law of

00:25:03.740 the land

00:25:04.120 right

00:25:04.640 so less

00:25:05.600 than a

00:25:05.900 decade

00:25:06.280 for four

00:25:07.660 state

00:25:07.920 four or five

00:25:08.400 states

00:25:08.820 getting involved

00:25:10.680 nullifying the

00:25:11.700 federal government's

00:25:12.260 power

00:25:12.580 and then it

00:25:13.220 becomes the

00:25:13.820 law of the

00:25:14.140 land

00:25:14.300 that's how

00:25:14.620 quickly it

00:25:15.020 can happen

00:25:15.440 the second

00:25:16.520 example is

00:25:17.280 weed

00:25:17.940 right

00:25:18.360 so

00:25:18.980 same two

00:25:21.080 states

00:25:21.520 massachusetts

00:25:22.380 and california

00:25:23.880 at the time

00:25:25.000 and it still

00:25:25.720 is by the way

00:25:26.460 marijuana was

00:25:27.980 a schedule

00:25:28.520 one narcotic

00:25:29.260 and they were

00:25:30.860 like you know

00:25:31.220 what it's not

00:25:31.940 actually that's

00:25:32.780 stupid

00:25:33.100 nobody believes

00:25:34.060 that there's a

00:25:34.560 bunch of people

00:25:34.940 in federal prison

00:25:35.540 for it

00:25:35.880 there's a bunch

00:25:36.120 of people in

00:25:36.440 our prisons

00:25:36.880 for it

00:25:37.180 we're not

00:25:37.400 doing it

00:25:37.780 anymore

00:25:38.080 it's costing

00:25:38.500 too much

00:25:38.840 money

00:25:39.160 and the

00:25:42.060 federal government

00:25:42.600 tried to buck

00:25:43.220 them a couple

00:25:43.640 of times

00:25:44.000 like during

00:25:44.740 the obama

00:25:45.180 administration

00:25:45.600 there was a

00:25:46.140 place called

00:25:46.640 oaksterdam

00:25:47.160 and where i

00:25:49.080 lived in

00:25:49.400 oakland california

00:25:50.260 and they got

00:25:51.300 raided like two

00:25:51.860 or three times

00:25:52.420 by the federal

00:25:52.900 government

00:25:53.300 between

00:25:54.880 man was it

00:25:56.840 2009 and

00:25:57.820 13 i think

00:25:58.620 or 2009 and

00:25:59.860 12 maybe

00:26:00.440 something like

00:26:00.780 that

00:26:01.060 and then after

00:26:02.420 that

00:26:02.780 the

00:26:04.100 the public

00:26:05.240 response

00:26:05.840 was so

00:26:06.840 like fuck

00:26:07.980 you this

00:26:08.380 is stupid

00:26:08.920 that the

00:26:09.860 obama administration

00:26:10.660 literally said

00:26:11.440 we're no longer

00:26:11.960 going to

00:26:12.220 i think it was

00:26:12.800 in 2014

00:26:13.380 they were like

00:26:13.800 we're no longer

00:26:14.300 going to prosecute

00:26:15.180 marijuana crimes

00:26:16.360 like we don't

00:26:17.260 care about that

00:26:17.800 anymore

00:26:18.120 that took

00:26:19.480 like three

00:26:20.460 years

00:26:20.900 right

00:26:21.480 for that to

00:26:22.500 happen

00:26:22.780 so it's like

00:26:23.800 we know the

00:26:24.840 roadmap for this

00:26:25.520 so how do we

00:26:26.220 apply that

00:26:27.140 strategy to

00:26:28.260 some of this

00:26:28.700 other stuff

00:26:29.220 i mean it gets

00:26:29.700 complicated right

00:26:30.480 because

00:26:30.940 especially if

00:26:33.160 you're in a

00:26:33.740 what's considered

00:26:34.880 to be a

00:26:35.200 welfare state

00:26:36.060 or

00:26:37.580 a state that

00:26:39.920 takes in more

00:26:40.520 federal dollars

00:26:41.200 than it puts

00:26:41.660 out

00:26:41.920 i think that

00:26:44.260 could be

00:26:44.980 overcome by

00:26:45.560 mous but

00:26:46.340 a state like

00:26:47.140 texas for

00:26:47.640 example that

00:26:48.200 spends way

00:26:49.680 more money

00:26:50.220 gives way

00:26:51.080 more money

00:26:51.400 to the

00:26:51.660 federal government

00:26:52.100 than we take

00:26:52.560 from the

00:26:52.820 federal government

00:26:53.340 and we also

00:26:54.180 have a 64

00:26:54.800 billion dollar

00:26:55.480 surplus right

00:26:56.160 now

00:26:56.420 we can just

00:26:57.620 tell the

00:26:57.880 government

00:26:58.100 like hey

00:26:58.400 we're not

00:26:58.660 paying anymore

00:26:59.280 your taxes

00:26:59.840 fuck you

00:27:00.720 until you

00:27:02.060 stop sending

00:27:02.800 our money

00:27:03.160 to israel

00:27:03.740 and ukraine

00:27:04.660 like just

00:27:05.280 draw some

00:27:06.120 hard line

00:27:06.640 to the sand

00:27:07.000 it doesn't

00:27:07.340 have to be

00:27:07.900 it doesn't

00:27:09.480 have to be

00:27:09.900 everywhere

00:27:10.240 all at once

00:27:10.920 it could be

00:27:12.180 like hey

00:27:12.520 you pass

00:27:12.940 federal legislation

00:27:13.740 to stop

00:27:14.160 people from

00:27:14.560 cutting kids

00:27:15.040 dicks off

00:27:15.620 otherwise you're

00:27:16.280 not getting

00:27:16.560 another fucking

00:27:17.240 dime from

00:27:17.740 me

00:27:17.980 right

00:27:18.420 and you know

00:27:20.320 I mean it's

00:27:20.840 strategically speaking

00:27:21.900 you should pick

00:27:22.460 something that

00:27:22.900 most people

00:27:23.340 agree on

00:27:23.880 like we don't

00:27:24.400 want to

00:27:24.660 fucking do

00:27:25.020 that anymore

00:27:25.500 we're not

00:27:26.160 paying for

00:27:26.720 it and

00:27:27.640 uh the federal

00:27:29.600 government will

00:27:30.160 bend

00:27:30.520 I'm telling

00:27:31.200 you

00:27:31.420 like data

00:27:31.860 as much

00:27:32.500 as as

00:27:33.580 dumb as

00:27:34.060 it would

00:27:34.260 be

00:27:34.620 for

00:27:35.540 you know

00:27:36.900 the citizenry

00:27:37.600 to rise up

00:27:38.340 or whatever

00:27:38.640 these fantasies

00:27:39.320 people have

00:27:39.760 about civil war

00:27:40.500 or whatever

00:27:40.760 against the

00:27:41.180 government

00:27:41.500 as dumb

00:27:42.180 as that

00:27:42.440 would be

00:27:42.760 it would

00:27:43.220 be even

00:27:43.620 dumber

00:27:43.960 for a

00:27:46.140 country with

00:27:46.720 450 to

00:27:47.780 500 million

00:27:48.520 guns in

00:27:49.160 the hands

00:27:49.640 of about

00:27:50.440 15 million

00:27:51.220 GWAT

00:27:51.680 veterans

00:27:52.100 to start

00:27:52.680 sending

00:27:53.020 troops in

00:27:53.820 and fucking

00:27:54.500 with states

00:27:55.160 because they

00:27:55.760 don't agree

00:27:56.160 with some

00:27:56.520 kind of

00:27:56.820 policy

00:27:57.120 it's not

00:27:57.480 going to

00:27:57.680 happen

00:27:57.940 man

00:27:58.140 the states

00:27:58.520 will not

00:27:58.900 or the

00:27:59.120 federal

00:27:59.560 government

00:27:59.880 will not

00:28:00.340 do that

00:28:00.800 they will

00:28:01.320 not

00:28:01.460 because here's

00:28:01.860 what they

00:28:02.100 can't

00:28:02.420 abide

00:28:02.800 they can't

00:28:03.880 send

00:28:04.300 an active

00:28:06.400 duty unit

00:28:06.980 somewhere

00:28:07.360 to do

00:28:07.960 something

00:28:08.380 and have

00:28:09.140 half of

00:28:09.520 that unit

00:28:09.940 leave

00:28:10.640 and go

00:28:10.980 join the

00:28:11.380 other side

00:28:11.800 which is

00:28:12.100 exactly

00:28:12.460 what would

00:28:12.740 happen

00:28:13.040 probably

00:28:13.480 more than

00:28:13.900 half

00:28:14.140 but I'm

00:28:14.360 just saying

00:28:14.760 for the

00:28:15.100 sake

00:28:15.300 of

00:28:15.460 argument

00:28:15.800 they

00:28:16.920 can't

00:28:17.420 do

00:28:17.540 that

00:28:17.740 because

00:28:17.940 the

00:28:18.120 federal

00:28:18.340 government's

00:28:18.860 power

00:28:19.220 is like

00:28:20.300 Tinkerbell

00:28:20.720 it only

00:28:21.120 exists

00:28:21.460 because

00:28:21.700 we

00:28:21.900 believe

00:28:22.200 it

00:28:22.340 does

00:28:22.560 they

00:28:22.700 don't

00:28:22.800 have

00:28:23.100 any

00:28:23.260 actual

00:28:23.640 power

00:28:24.080 it's

00:28:24.300 just

00:28:24.420 a bunch

00:28:24.660 of

00:28:24.780 assholes

00:28:25.320 and

00:28:25.700 suits

00:28:26.040 right

00:28:26.360 so as

00:28:27.100 soon

00:28:27.300 as

00:28:27.480 the

00:28:27.700 curtain

00:28:28.180 gets

00:28:28.380 pulled

00:28:28.620 back

00:28:28.900 and

00:28:29.000 everybody

00:28:29.220 sees

00:28:29.560 Oz

00:28:30.000 standing

00:28:30.820 behind

00:28:31.200 it

00:28:31.460 manipulating

00:28:32.480 the

00:28:32.640 controls

00:28:32.960 they're

00:28:33.120 like

00:28:33.220 oh we're

00:28:33.520 not

00:28:33.660 fucking

00:28:33.920 doing

00:28:34.120 this

00:28:34.540 anymore

00:28:35.060 right

00:28:35.400 and I

00:28:35.860 don't

00:28:35.960 think

00:28:36.120 that

00:28:36.240 would

00:28:36.340 be

00:28:36.460 good

00:28:36.640 for

00:28:36.760 the

00:28:36.900 country

00:28:37.200 either

00:28:37.500 right

00:28:37.800 what's

00:28:38.300 good

00:28:38.460 for

00:28:38.580 the

00:28:38.720 country

00:28:39.040 is

00:28:39.300 incremental

00:28:40.040 change

00:28:40.640 you know

00:28:41.200 what I mean

00:28:41.460 like

00:28:41.640 too much

00:28:42.080 change

00:28:42.460 all at

00:28:42.780 one

00:28:42.940 time

00:28:43.260 caused

00:28:43.600 a lot

00:28:43.880 of

00:28:43.980 problems

00:28:44.420 and we

00:28:45.020 saw

00:28:45.240 that

00:28:45.400 in the

00:28:45.560 late

00:28:45.700 part

00:28:45.900 of

00:28:45.960 the

00:28:46.060 19th

00:28:46.460 century

00:28:46.720 after

00:28:47.100 the

00:28:50.140 14th

00:28:50.700 amendment

00:28:50.940 13th

00:28:51.400 to 14th

00:28:51.740 amendments

00:28:52.060 frees

00:28:52.900 the

00:28:53.020 slaves

00:28:53.340 gives

00:28:53.560 everybody

00:28:53.960 the

00:28:54.160 same

00:28:54.340 rights

00:28:54.620 and

00:28:54.760 blah

00:28:54.960 blah

00:28:55.100 blah

00:28:55.360 it

00:28:56.280 would

00:28:56.460 have

00:28:56.600 it

00:28:56.960 was

00:28:57.320 going

00:28:57.560 to

00:28:57.740 take

00:28:58.040 a

00:28:58.240 massive

00:28:58.680 effort

00:28:59.080 we

00:28:59.260 called

00:28:59.500 it

00:28:59.600 reconstruction

00:29:00.040 right

00:29:00.400 it was

00:29:00.540 going to

00:29:00.660 take

00:29:00.780 a

00:29:00.900 massive

00:29:01.180 effort

00:29:01.500 to get

00:29:01.800 our

00:29:01.920 country

00:29:02.160 back

00:29:02.420 to

00:29:02.540 where

00:29:02.640 it

00:29:02.740 needed

00:29:02.900 to

00:29:03.040 be

00:29:03.160 and

00:29:03.260 it

00:29:03.300 was

00:29:03.380 going to

00:29:03.560 take

00:29:03.720 time

00:29:04.100 to

00:29:04.280 do

00:29:04.440 it

00:29:04.600 now

00:29:04.960 I'm

00:29:05.040 not

00:29:05.180 saying

00:29:05.400 we

00:29:05.580 shouldn't

00:29:05.800 have

00:29:05.920 done

00:29:06.080 those

00:29:06.280 things

00:29:06.440 obviously

00:29:06.820 it

00:29:07.000 was

00:29:07.100 the

00:29:07.200 right

00:29:07.320 thing

00:29:07.460 to

00:29:07.560 do

00:29:07.720 and

00:29:07.820 it

00:29:07.900 should

00:29:08.020 have

00:29:08.120 happened

00:29:08.360 quite

00:29:08.560 a

00:29:08.660 bit

00:29:08.780 sooner

00:29:09.020 but

00:29:09.360 we

00:29:11.320 have

00:29:11.520 to

00:29:11.640 understand

00:29:12.100 that

00:29:12.720 just

00:29:12.900 pulling

00:29:13.220 the rug

00:29:13.620 out

00:29:13.920 from

00:29:14.360 under

00:29:14.660 institutional

00:29:15.840 power

00:29:16.380 creates

00:29:17.420 a

00:29:17.600 vacuum

00:29:18.040 it

00:29:18.500 creates

00:29:18.720 a

00:29:18.880 massive

00:29:19.200 vacuum

00:29:19.700 and

00:29:20.480 it

00:29:21.340 will

00:29:24.380 create

00:29:24.820 as many

00:29:25.240 problems

00:29:25.680 as it

00:29:25.980 solves

00:29:26.320 right

00:29:26.820 again

00:29:27.940 that is

00:29:28.260 not to

00:29:28.560 say

00:29:28.700 we

00:29:28.860 should

00:29:29.040 not

00:29:29.260 do

00:29:29.400 probably

00:29:29.860 probably

00:29:31.000 yeah

00:29:31.280 usually

00:29:31.600 it

00:29:31.800 happens

00:29:32.040 like

00:29:32.220 that

00:29:32.460 so

00:29:32.980 it's

00:29:33.140 not

00:29:33.280 to

00:32:16.960 well

00:32:17.220 I

00:32:17.640 have

00:32:17.900 this

00:32:18.080 right

00:32:18.260 I'm

00:32:18.420 allowed

00:32:18.720 to

00:32:18.940 do

00:32:19.080 this

00:32:19.440 well

00:32:19.820 sure

00:32:20.420 but

00:32:20.740 those

00:32:21.020 rights

00:32:21.480 need

00:32:22.340 to be

00:32:22.840 protected

00:32:23.380 and preserved

00:32:24.220 and maintained

00:32:25.240 somebody else

00:32:26.240 did that

00:32:26.820 for us

00:32:27.520 it's now

00:32:28.400 our turn

00:32:28.780 to do

00:32:29.040 it

00:32:29.220 but

00:32:29.880 I do

00:32:30.300 have

00:32:30.400 a

00:32:30.500 question

00:32:30.860 in

00:32:31.400 theory

00:32:32.020 I

00:32:32.340 agree

00:32:32.660 with

00:32:32.880 you

00:32:33.140 in

00:32:33.420 practicality

00:32:34.040 I do

00:32:34.280 as well

00:32:34.640 but I'm

00:32:34.960 actually

00:32:35.240 wondering

00:32:35.660 what does

00:32:36.200 that

00:32:36.360 practically

00:32:36.840 look

00:32:37.140 like

00:32:37.460 for

00:32:38.040 a

00:32:38.200 guy

00:32:38.360 that's

00:32:38.640 got

00:32:39.000 you know

00:32:39.440 a

00:32:39.880 50 hour

00:32:40.560 work

00:32:40.940 week

00:32:41.380 and

00:32:41.620 four

00:32:42.000 kids

00:32:42.560 and

00:32:42.700 a

00:32:42.880 wife

00:32:43.260 what

00:32:43.680 does

00:32:43.900 the

00:32:44.100 work

00:32:44.480 actually

00:32:45.580 look

00:32:45.920 like

00:32:46.160 for

00:32:46.360 a

00:32:46.500 person

00:32:46.680 like

00:32:46.860 that

00:32:47.200 sure

00:32:48.060 I

00:32:48.220 mean

00:32:48.300 you

00:32:48.380 got

00:32:48.500 to

00:32:48.600 start

00:32:48.880 low

00:32:49.300 right

00:32:49.560 and

00:32:49.720 you

00:32:49.960 know

00:32:50.100 it's

00:32:50.640 again

00:32:53.320 I'll

00:32:53.980 reference

00:32:54.540 this

00:32:54.960 the

00:32:55.840 government

00:32:56.220 is like

00:32:56.580 Tinkerbell

00:32:57.000 its

00:32:57.160 power

00:32:57.520 is

00:32:57.960 derived

00:32:58.520 from

00:32:59.000 what

00:32:59.280 men

00:32:59.640 believe

00:33:00.180 right

00:33:00.680 like

00:33:01.460 if

00:33:01.660 people

00:33:02.180 stop

00:33:02.640 having

00:33:02.940 faith

00:33:03.260 in

00:33:03.400 government

00:33:03.700 government

00:33:04.060 power

00:33:04.420 goes

00:33:04.700 away

00:33:04.900 if

00:33:05.060 the

00:33:05.500 government

00:33:05.740 shows

00:33:06.120 up

00:33:06.320 somewhere

00:33:06.740 and

00:33:07.780 nobody

00:33:08.160 has

00:33:08.420 their

00:33:08.600 hand

00:33:08.880 out

00:33:09.080 they

00:33:09.240 have

00:33:09.400 no

00:33:09.560 power

00:33:09.900 there

00:33:10.180 right

00:33:10.900 so

00:33:11.460 I

00:33:12.600 would

00:33:13.000 begin

00:33:13.340 with

00:33:13.600 Maslow's

00:33:14.040 hierarchy

00:33:14.460 of

00:33:14.620 needs

00:33:14.780 start

00:33:15.100 securing

00:33:15.520 your

00:33:15.760 own

00:33:16.120 energy

00:33:16.840 start

00:33:17.220 securing

00:33:17.600 your

00:33:17.840 own

00:33:18.220 housing

00:33:18.900 and

00:33:19.080 stuff

00:33:19.300 like

00:33:19.480 that

00:33:19.660 like

00:33:19.820 it's

00:33:20.040 complicated

00:33:20.740 with

00:33:21.060 housing

00:33:21.360 because

00:33:21.660 of

00:33:21.820 mortgages

00:33:22.220 and how

00:33:22.500 predatory

00:33:22.940 they are

00:33:23.280 these days

00:33:23.680 the housing

00:33:24.160 market

00:33:24.400 in general

00:33:24.860 it's

00:33:25.540 another

00:33:25.760 example

00:33:26.220 just like

00:33:26.580 food

00:33:26.940 it's

00:33:28.980 another

00:33:29.200 example

00:33:29.680 just like

00:33:30.220 food

00:33:30.560 that

00:33:30.920 we've

00:33:31.780 taken

00:33:32.060 an

00:33:32.420 absolute

00:33:32.760 necessity

00:33:33.260 and

00:33:33.520 turned

00:33:33.680 it

00:33:33.780 into

00:33:33.940 commodity

00:33:34.440 and

00:33:34.820 forget

00:33:35.500 about

00:33:35.880 forget

00:33:37.700 about

00:33:38.020 the

00:33:38.300 pharmaceutical

00:33:38.640 industry

00:33:39.120 and

00:33:39.240 the

00:33:39.360 food

00:33:39.560 industry

00:33:40.000 making

00:33:41.640 money

00:33:42.060 on

00:33:42.300 keeping

00:33:42.540 people

00:33:42.840 sick

00:33:43.100 for

00:33:43.240 their

00:33:43.380 whole

00:33:43.560 lives

00:33:43.940 but

00:33:44.360 housing

00:33:45.380 does

00:33:45.680 that

00:33:46.040 they

00:33:46.840 put

00:33:47.260 people

00:33:47.600 in a

00:33:47.820 bind

00:33:48.100 to keep

00:33:48.480 them

00:33:48.620 in debt

00:33:48.920 for

00:33:49.080 their

00:33:49.180 whole

00:33:49.320 lives

00:33:49.560 and

00:33:50.100 on top

00:33:50.840 of that

00:33:51.120 they

00:33:51.280 turn

00:33:51.560 it

00:33:51.680 into

00:33:52.060 a

00:33:52.760 stock

00:33:53.480 portfolio

00:33:54.040 and trade

00:33:54.580 on it

00:33:54.880 so they

00:33:55.240 can make

00:33:55.500 money

00:33:55.760 off of

00:33:56.140 your

00:33:56.260 pain

00:33:56.680 it's

00:33:57.240 like

00:33:57.420 they're

00:33:58.660 doubling

00:33:59.100 down

00:33:59.520 on being

00:33:59.880 an

00:34:00.100 asshole

00:34:00.460 but

00:34:01.440 anyways

00:34:01.840 start

00:34:03.740 low

00:34:04.120 look at

00:34:04.780 Maslow's

00:34:05.160 hierarchy

00:34:05.540 of needs

00:34:05.980 where are

00:34:08.020 which

00:34:08.740 businesses

00:34:09.200 are you

00:34:09.480 patronizing

00:34:10.000 are you

00:34:10.280 giving

00:34:10.500 more

00:34:10.740 money

00:34:11.020 to the

00:34:11.320 companies

00:34:11.640 that are

00:34:11.840 in bed

00:34:12.080 with the

00:34:12.340 federal

00:34:12.520 government

00:34:12.940 right

00:34:13.260 like

00:34:13.960 you can

00:34:14.420 stop

00:34:14.740 that

00:34:14.980 now

00:34:15.340 and I

00:34:15.880 would

00:34:16.000 definitely

00:34:17.800 encourage

00:34:18.260 people

00:34:18.680 to try

00:34:19.620 to find

00:34:20.100 and it's

00:34:20.480 getting

00:34:20.680 easier

00:34:21.100 and easier

00:34:21.600 now

00:34:22.280 and over

00:34:23.800 the next

00:34:24.080 five years

00:34:24.540 it's going

00:34:24.840 to get

00:34:25.140 much

00:34:26.560 simpler

00:34:26.940 as well

00:34:27.480 to

00:34:28.600 find

00:34:30.560 local

00:34:30.940 food

00:34:31.300 right

00:34:31.620 like you

00:34:31.960 should try

00:34:32.700 one

00:34:33.020 eat

00:34:33.280 seasonal

00:34:33.580 food

00:34:33.860 and two

00:34:34.140 don't eat

00:34:34.560 anything

00:34:34.800 that comes

00:34:35.140 from more

00:34:35.420 than four

00:34:35.740 hours away

00:34:36.160 from you

00:34:36.500 and something

00:34:36.900 that didn't

00:34:37.280 exist 200

00:34:37.860 years ago

00:34:38.300 those are

00:34:38.580 pretty good

00:34:39.040 rules

00:34:39.440 that I

00:34:39.880 think

00:34:40.100 people

00:34:40.320 should

00:34:40.480 follow

00:34:40.840 I've

00:34:41.220 also

00:34:41.440 heard

00:34:41.780 one

00:34:42.480 ingredient

00:34:43.300 items

00:34:43.940 you know

00:34:44.400 if you

00:34:44.620 like

00:34:44.860 for example

00:34:45.540 a tomato

00:34:47.000 like

00:34:47.860 not tomato

00:34:48.500 sauce

00:34:48.840 a tomato

00:34:49.680 one ingredient

00:34:50.480 items are always

00:34:51.160 best too

00:34:51.640 yeah

00:34:52.420 yeah certainly

00:34:53.480 and then you

00:34:53.900 make the sauce

00:34:54.580 yourself

00:34:54.960 right

00:34:55.260 right

00:34:55.540 exactly

00:34:56.000 yeah

00:34:56.820 like breaking

00:34:58.100 down

00:34:58.540 the the

00:34:59.660 connective tissue

00:35:00.520 and and

00:35:01.500 enzymes

00:35:02.080 and food

00:35:02.720 and you put

00:35:03.720 it in a

00:35:04.140 in a box

00:35:04.940 or a box

00:35:05.840 or a bag

00:35:06.240 or something

00:35:06.460 like that

00:35:06.920 and you

00:35:07.940 have to add

00:35:08.480 something else

00:35:09.060 to make it

00:35:09.500 shelf stable

00:35:10.040 for 18

00:35:10.500 months

00:35:10.820 right

00:35:11.220 and that's

00:35:12.060 that that's

00:35:12.980 something else

00:35:13.560 that's something

00:35:13.920 that your body

00:35:14.400 doesn't want

00:35:14.940 so yeah I would

00:35:16.520 start there

00:35:17.000 and then the

00:35:17.280 second thing

00:35:17.620 is like

00:35:18.660 we've got

00:35:19.180 to really

00:35:21.160 start helping

00:35:21.940 each other

00:35:22.500 you know what I

00:35:23.100 mean

00:35:23.280 like you're

00:35:24.440 this idea

00:35:25.220 that you're

00:35:25.600 not your

00:35:25.880 brother's

00:35:26.220 keeper

00:35:26.420 that's

00:35:26.740 fucking

00:35:27.040 bullshit

00:35:27.480 you are

00:35:28.320 your brother's

00:35:28.820 keeper

00:35:29.000 that's why

00:35:29.680 you are

00:35:29.960 on this

00:35:30.260 planet

00:35:30.580 you exist

00:35:31.560 every meaningful

00:35:32.500 thing you do

00:35:32.980 in your life

00:35:33.320 will be in

00:35:33.660 the service

00:35:34.020 of other people

00:35:34.640 and I bring

00:35:35.820 that back

00:35:36.200 up because

00:35:36.900 once again

00:35:39.140 when the

00:35:40.760 government

00:35:41.060 shows up

00:35:41.780 and nobody

00:35:43.300 has their

00:35:43.760 hand out

00:35:44.300 they don't

00:35:46.060 have power

00:35:46.660 right

00:35:47.460 there's nothing

00:35:48.200 for them to

00:35:48.720 exploit

00:35:49.160 if you don't

00:35:49.700 need something

00:35:50.200 from them

00:35:50.580 they don't

00:35:50.880 there's no

00:35:51.360 negotiation to

00:35:52.220 happen

00:35:52.420 they're just

00:35:52.720 going to move

00:35:53.140 on to the

00:35:53.560 next area

00:35:54.140 so you know

00:35:55.800 those are the

00:35:57.060 things that I

00:35:57.560 really focus

00:35:58.160 on personally

00:35:58.920 is see

00:36:01.560 somebody that

00:36:02.280 needs help

00:36:02.800 and help

00:36:03.140 them

00:36:03.280 it can become

00:36:04.320 very overwhelming

00:36:05.120 especially if

00:36:05.700 you're busy

00:36:06.060 you got a lot

00:36:07.660 going on

00:36:08.220 or even the

00:36:09.320 size and scope

00:36:10.000 of some of

00:36:10.380 these problems

00:36:10.900 like you look

00:36:11.460 at homelessness

00:36:13.100 the veteran

00:36:14.080 issue

00:36:14.720 food deserts

00:36:16.920 and all this

00:36:17.280 stuff

00:36:17.540 there's no way

00:36:19.200 you as an

00:36:19.780 individual are

00:36:20.320 going to solve

00:36:20.840 hunger

00:36:21.180 but you can

00:36:22.300 solve that

00:36:32.320 like

00:36:32.620 you've got

00:36:34.980 to narrow

00:36:35.300 your focus

00:36:35.820 a little bit

00:36:36.320 you know

00:36:36.700 the lower

00:36:37.480 I mean

00:36:38.180 if you think

00:36:38.840 about it

00:36:39.420 from

00:36:41.760 even just

00:36:43.080 a military

00:36:43.520 standpoint

00:36:44.040 at the lowest

00:36:44.760 level

00:36:45.880 you're

00:36:46.940 you have a

00:36:47.420 very narrow

00:36:47.900 focus

00:36:48.340 right

00:36:48.680 you don't

00:36:49.200 I don't

00:36:49.500 know the

00:36:49.800 whole picture

00:36:50.280 but I

00:36:50.740 know this

00:36:51.160 bit

00:36:51.440 and this

00:36:51.780 bit

00:36:52.000 this is

00:36:52.400 my range

00:36:53.540 right

00:36:53.820 these are

00:36:54.120 my range

00:36:54.900 fans

00:36:55.740 my left

00:36:56.780 and right

00:36:57.040 limits

00:36:57.380 everything

00:36:58.020 within this

00:36:58.580 limit is

00:36:58.980 my purview

00:36:59.640 or it's

00:37:00.440 the purview

00:37:00.900 of those

00:37:01.300 around me

00:37:01.720 so take

00:37:02.140 care of

00:37:02.380 a tribe

00:37:03.100 right

00:37:03.420 and it

00:37:04.320 doesn't

00:37:04.540 just mean

00:37:04.840 people who

00:37:05.280 look or

00:37:05.660 think like

00:37:06.060 you

00:37:06.280 people that

00:37:07.560 are around

00:37:08.020 you

00:37:11.920 neighborhood

00:37:12.200 you see a

00:37:12.560 bunch of

00:37:12.760 moving trucks

00:37:13.280 out there

00:37:13.620 walk over

00:37:14.180 there and

00:37:14.560 see who

00:37:14.920 those people

00:37:15.320 are

00:37:15.640 and say

00:37:16.300 hey

00:37:18.060 or make

00:37:18.380 you some

00:37:18.620 food

00:37:24.200 somebody comes

00:37:24.860 into your

00:37:25.120 neighborhood

00:37:25.440 trying to

00:37:25.920 start some

00:37:26.340 shit

00:37:26.640 now Steve

00:37:27.440 down the

00:37:27.780 street's got

00:37:28.180 your back

00:37:28.660 right

00:37:29.540 and the

00:37:30.220 more and more

00:37:30.660 you do that

00:37:31.240 and it happens

00:37:31.900 at the larger

00:37:32.640 and larger

00:37:33.020 levels

00:37:33.420 the more

00:37:33.980 insulated

00:37:34.380 we become

00:37:34.900 from these

00:37:35.240 motherfuckers

00:37:36.020 who want to

00:37:36.380 come into

00:37:36.720 our communities

00:37:37.360 and tear

00:37:37.980 us apart

00:37:38.440 and it's

00:37:39.840 very contagious

00:37:40.520 too

00:37:40.900 you know

00:37:41.200 when you

00:37:41.460 start doing

00:37:41.900 that

00:37:42.180 Steve down

00:37:42.660 the street

00:37:43.040 is gonna

00:37:43.260 be like

00:37:43.480 oh it's

00:37:49.240 so it

00:37:49.900 it just

00:37:50.720 grows from

00:37:51.660 there

00:37:51.820 what what

00:37:52.620 is your

00:37:52.900 take on

00:37:53.860 you know

00:37:54.440 talking about

00:37:55.020 politicians

00:37:55.640 earlier

00:37:56.060 what is

00:37:56.540 your take

00:37:57.060 on men

00:37:57.760 getting involved

00:37:58.500 in local

00:38:00.040 and city

00:38:00.400 politics

00:38:00.840 city council

00:38:01.560 school board

00:38:05.540 you would

00:38:05.860 be

00:38:06.300 at very

00:38:08.120 minimum

00:38:08.560 go to

00:38:09.800 the meetings

00:38:10.340 and see

00:38:11.420 how much

00:38:11.800 power

00:38:12.180 these people

00:38:13.040 have over

00:38:13.580 your day-to-day

00:38:14.080 life

00:38:14.460 right

00:38:15.320 especially

00:38:16.140 in a place

00:38:16.880 like Texas

00:38:17.580 for example

00:38:18.160 with the

00:38:20.160 property tax

00:38:20.920 stuff that's

00:38:21.820 going on here

00:38:22.380 I mean it's

00:38:22.840 it's increasing

00:38:23.440 at an alarming

00:38:24.060 rate

00:38:24.440 despite the fact

00:38:26.220 that we have

00:38:26.540 a massive

00:38:27.020 budget surplus

00:38:28.040 they're still

00:38:28.720 just taking

00:38:29.220 money from

00:38:29.600 us

00:38:29.760 why

00:38:30.060 you know

00:38:30.960 what I mean

00:38:31.200 it's like

00:38:31.600 what the

00:38:31.920 fuck's going

00:38:32.500 on

00:38:32.680 so

00:38:32.900 even at

00:38:34.540 the city

00:38:35.860 council level

00:38:36.420 and keep

00:38:36.780 in mind

00:38:37.240 for those

00:38:38.060 who didn't

00:38:38.480 follow this

00:38:39.000 back in

00:38:39.400 2018

00:38:39.800 excuse me

00:38:42.300 Glenn Youngkin

00:38:45.260 won governorship

00:38:46.300 of Virginia

00:38:46.940 because of

00:38:48.220 school board

00:38:48.940 meetings

00:38:49.340 that's it

00:38:50.300 moms

00:38:51.360 particularly

00:38:52.520 catholic moms

00:38:53.260 who by the way

00:38:53.740 were being

00:38:54.040 spied on

00:38:54.820 by the federal

00:38:55.620 government

00:38:55.920 by the FBI

00:38:56.420 and labeled

00:38:56.800 domestic terrorists

00:38:57.660 I mean

00:38:58.440 to be honest

00:38:59.300 to the catholic

00:39:00.000 child

00:39:00.460 their mom

00:39:00.940 might be

00:39:01.260 a domestic

00:39:01.640 terrorist

00:39:02.040 but to all

00:39:02.880 the rest

00:39:03.220 of us

00:39:04.120 just a mom

00:39:06.040 take her

00:39:06.340 shoe

00:39:08.740 terrorism

00:39:09.240 involved in

00:39:09.860 that

00:39:10.020 but moms

00:39:12.020 started going

00:39:12.500 to these

00:39:12.760 school board

00:39:13.140 meetings

00:39:13.300 like hey

00:40:30.760 first

00:40:31.260 started

00:40:31.480 used

00:40:31.820 tell

00:40:31.960 me

00:40:32.140 that

00:40:33.040 it

00:40:34.840 isn't

00:40:35.080 what

00:40:35.240 you

00:40:35.420 expect

00:40:36.000 that

00:40:36.320 happens

00:40:36.660 it's

00:40:36.860 what

00:40:36.980 you

00:40:37.100 inspect

00:40:37.520 that

00:40:37.940 happens

00:40:38.320 right

00:40:38.600 like

00:40:39.200 it's

00:40:39.840 I guess

00:40:40.140 you could

00:40:40.380 you could

00:40:40.740 say it

00:40:41.100 more eloquently

00:40:41.620 that sunlight

00:40:42.320 is the

00:40:42.600 best

00:40:42.800 disinfectant

00:40:47.400 stopped paying

00:40:48.000 attention

00:40:48.340 for a very

00:40:48.900 long time

00:40:49.440 we had

00:40:49.760 decided

00:40:50.060 and you know

00:40:50.600 to be honest

00:40:51.160 we're a

00:40:51.500 victim of

00:40:51.860 our own

00:40:52.140 success

00:40:52.600 the

00:40:53.800 the social

00:40:55.620 currency

00:40:56.220 throughout

00:40:57.120 most of

00:40:57.700 this country

00:40:58.280 you know

00:40:59.120 up to

00:40:59.660 and including

00:41:00.240 the greatest

00:41:01.240 generation

00:41:01.760 was

00:41:02.280 you're a

00:41:03.000 good man

00:41:03.460 you're

00:41:03.660 honorable

00:41:04.060 you take

00:41:04.460 care of

00:41:04.680 your family

00:41:05.180 you go out

00:41:05.640 there and

00:41:05.880 work hard

00:41:06.420 and that's

00:41:06.780 what a

00:41:07.040 good person

00:41:07.560 is

00:41:07.820 and you

00:41:08.380 have to

00:41:08.720 you have

00:41:09.280 to be

00:41:09.620 that kind

00:41:10.040 of person

00:41:10.400 for me

00:41:10.760 to respect

00:41:11.300 you

00:41:11.480 and my

00:41:11.740 respect

00:41:12.040 means

00:41:12.380 something

00:41:12.600 because if

00:41:12.860 I don't

00:41:13.040 respect you

00:41:13.480 I'm not

00:41:13.680 going to

00:41:13.840 patronize

00:41:14.240 your business

00:41:14.780 we're not

00:41:15.340 going to hang

00:41:15.720 out

00:41:15.940 you're not

00:41:16.180 going to be

00:41:16.380 accepted

00:41:16.740 into our

00:41:17.040 community

00:41:17.440 it's not

00:41:18.740 that anymore

00:41:19.260 the boomer

00:41:19.760 has completely

00:41:20.260 fucked us

00:41:20.800 up

00:41:21.020 I mean

00:41:21.440 if the

00:41:22.820 greatest

00:41:23.100 generation

00:41:23.560 is the

00:41:23.860 greatest

00:41:24.120 the boomers

00:41:24.640 are the

00:41:24.860 worst

00:41:25.220 they're the

00:41:25.620 worst

00:41:25.820 generation

00:41:26.280 in American

00:41:26.760 history

00:41:27.180 because of

00:41:27.980 what they

00:41:28.260 did to

00:41:28.560 this country

00:41:29.040 the inflation

00:41:29.840 the debt

00:41:30.380 all this

00:41:31.120 stuff

00:41:31.460 but more

00:41:32.340 so

00:41:32.820 I guess

00:41:34.640 you could

00:41:34.880 call it

00:41:35.120 the human

00:41:35.500 potential

00:41:35.960 movement

00:41:36.360 I think

00:41:36.640 that's

00:41:36.880 what it

00:41:37.100 was

00:41:37.200 referred

00:41:37.480 to

00:41:37.720 in the

00:41:38.400 early

00:41:38.640 stages

00:41:39.020 back

00:41:39.280 in the

00:41:39.460 1960s

00:41:40.700 it's

00:41:41.460 like

00:41:41.660 everybody

00:41:43.780 gets a

00:41:44.320 trophy

00:41:44.680 there's

00:41:46.100 no

00:41:46.320 objective

00:41:46.880 reality

00:41:47.320 they bought

00:41:47.720 into this

00:41:48.040 Michel

00:41:48.400 Foucault

00:41:48.960 fucking

00:41:49.460 postmodernist

00:41:50.380 bullshit

00:41:50.820 and it

00:41:51.580 tore

00:41:51.900 this

00:41:52.140 country

00:41:52.460 apart

00:41:52.880 and

00:41:53.640 there's

00:41:54.160 a lot

00:41:54.420 of

00:41:54.680 repairing

00:41:55.480 that's

00:41:55.800 going to

00:41:55.980 have to

00:41:56.240 happen

00:41:56.520 now

00:41:56.800 and it

00:41:57.300 does

00:41:57.580 you know

00:41:57.940 it always

00:41:59.220 starts

00:41:59.660 I don't know

00:42:00.160 why this is

00:42:00.620 news to us

00:42:01.260 every time

00:42:01.720 it always

00:42:02.180 starts at the

00:42:02.700 lowest possible

00:42:03.260 level

00:42:03.520 if you're a

00:42:03.880 baseball

00:42:04.160 player

00:42:04.560 and

00:42:05.520 your swing

00:42:06.800 gets fucked

00:42:07.300 up

00:42:07.520 you don't

00:42:07.760 go do a

00:42:08.420 home run

00:42:08.760 derby to

00:42:09.180 fix it

00:42:09.600 right

00:42:09.840 you go in

00:42:10.220 the batting

00:42:10.600 cage

00:42:10.840 and hit

00:42:11.140 off a

00:42:11.440 tee

00:42:11.660 right

00:42:12.060 you know

00:42:12.920 what I

00:42:13.060 mean

00:42:13.200 that you

00:42:13.660 go back

00:42:14.080 to the

00:42:14.340 fundamentals

00:42:14.740 and you

00:42:15.040 learn the

00:42:15.500 small parts

00:42:16.120 and you

00:42:16.380 put them

00:42:16.640 all back

00:42:17.040 together

00:42:17.400 and that's

00:42:18.000 what

00:42:18.140 that's

00:42:18.580 you know

00:42:18.860 I'm glad

00:42:19.100 you brought

00:42:19.380 it up

00:42:19.600 because that

00:42:19.920 is precisely

00:42:20.600 what needs

00:42:21.000 to happen

00:42:21.420 yeah I think

00:42:22.880 another good

00:42:23.460 example of

00:42:24.040 this is

00:42:24.840 and I don't

00:42:25.960 know all

00:42:26.420 of the

00:42:26.880 intricacies

00:42:27.300 of it

00:42:27.720 but Matt

00:42:28.580 Walsh

00:42:28.900 with Daily

00:42:29.520 Wire

00:42:29.840 as he began

00:42:31.500 to expose

00:42:32.060 what Vanderbilt

00:42:33.400 was doing

00:42:34.000 in their

00:42:34.200 medical center

00:42:34.820 with

00:42:35.320 gender

00:42:36.920 transitioning

00:42:37.560 surgeries

00:42:38.360 for minors

00:42:39.260 and all

00:42:40.520 that he did

00:42:41.060 was bring

00:42:42.060 it to light

00:42:42.580 to expose

00:42:43.260 it and

00:42:43.720 then now

00:42:44.140 it's you

00:42:44.540 know sitting

00:42:44.980 in the

00:42:45.540 highest

00:42:46.240 court

00:42:46.560 of the

00:42:46.820 land

00:42:47.180 because

00:42:48.040 an individual

00:42:49.440 that worked

00:42:50.080 for an

00:42:50.380 organization

00:42:50.880 decided to

00:42:51.580 just shed

00:42:51.940 some light

00:42:52.460 and show

00:42:53.380 people what

00:42:53.880 was going

00:42:54.220 on so I

00:42:54.680 really like

00:42:55.200 what you

00:42:55.580 said about

00:42:56.160 exposing it

00:42:57.720 to light

00:42:58.440 as the

00:42:58.740 best

00:42:58.940 disinfectant

00:42:59.680 yeah I

00:43:00.840 mean

00:43:01.140 satire

00:43:02.660 has always

00:43:02.960 been the

00:43:03.280 best weapon

00:43:03.800 against

00:43:04.040 hypocrisy

00:43:04.600 right

00:43:04.880 one of

00:43:06.640 the most

00:43:06.900 famous

00:43:07.340 stories

00:43:09.960 ever written

00:43:10.740 is the

00:43:11.460 emperor's

00:43:11.820 new

00:43:11.980 clothes

00:43:12.440 right

00:43:13.060 every

00:43:13.420 I don't

00:43:14.020 think you

00:43:14.460 could find

00:43:14.860 anybody

00:43:15.140 that doesn't

00:43:15.560 know this

00:43:15.820 story

00:43:16.020 because they

00:43:16.240 still talk

00:43:17.220 ironically they

00:43:18.240 still talk

00:43:18.680 about it

00:43:19.100 to kids

00:43:19.620 today in

00:43:20.440 elementary

00:43:21.040 school

00:43:21.500 but the

00:43:22.960 lesson is

00:43:23.600 nobody would

00:43:25.560 speak truth

00:43:26.240 to power

00:43:26.780 and power

00:43:27.720 ran rampant

00:43:28.520 out of

00:43:28.800 control to

00:43:29.380 a ridiculous

00:43:29.820 level right

00:43:30.480 and obviously

00:43:31.120 this story

00:43:31.620 satirizes it

00:43:32.560 but

00:43:33.480 there is

00:43:36.680 something about

00:43:37.280 it's why

00:43:37.680 stand-up comedy

00:43:38.760 is so important

00:43:39.300 actually

00:43:39.640 like I don't

00:43:40.100 want to

00:43:40.520 pat these guys

00:43:41.500 backs any

00:43:42.000 more than

00:43:42.440 they're

00:43:42.800 already

00:43:42.980 patting

00:43:43.220 their own

00:43:43.460 backs

00:43:43.720 but they

00:43:45.620 have done

00:43:45.980 a great

00:43:46.320 job

00:43:46.520 I mean I

00:43:46.720 think

00:43:46.960 people like

00:43:48.840 Rogan and

00:43:52.720 some of

00:43:52.980 these other

00:43:53.300 guys

00:43:53.820 and Dave

00:43:56.040 Chappelle

00:43:56.460 and a bunch

00:43:57.280 of other

00:43:57.560 ones

00:43:57.780 Hinchcliffe

00:43:58.920 is a big

00:43:59.260 one too

00:43:59.620 who have

00:44:01.560 satirized

00:44:03.340 all the

00:44:03.860 stupid shit

00:44:04.660 that goes

00:44:05.560 on

00:44:05.920 right

00:44:06.260 I mean

00:44:06.560 they're the

00:44:06.960 modern

00:44:07.260 William

00:44:07.580 Shakespeare's

00:44:08.160 that's what

00:44:08.400 Shakespeare did

00:44:09.120 I don't know

00:44:09.780 how that

00:44:10.180 guy

00:44:10.420 I talk

00:44:11.000 about this

00:44:11.260 all the

00:44:11.460 time

00:44:11.640 I don't

00:44:11.840 know how

00:44:12.160 he survived

00:44:13.020 to be honest

00:44:13.740 because pretty

00:44:14.240 much everything

00:44:14.980 he did was

00:44:15.660 subversive against

00:44:16.380 the English

00:44:16.740 crown and

00:44:17.560 somehow he was

00:44:18.160 friends with

00:44:18.640 everybody on

00:44:19.360 at court

00:44:20.600 you know what

00:44:21.320 I mean

00:44:21.540 it's like how

00:44:22.340 do you do

00:44:23.000 really that stupid

00:44:24.080 you don't know

00:44:24.700 yeah it's like you

00:44:25.540 don't know he's

00:44:26.140 talking about you

00:44:26.760 right now you're

00:44:27.320 out of your

00:44:27.560 fucking mind

00:44:28.160 but I guess

00:44:30.100 they didn't

00:44:30.840 but yeah

00:44:32.040 that's like

00:44:32.460 Ricky Jarvis

00:44:33.860 is Oscar

00:44:35.180 hosting or

00:44:36.320 something where

00:44:36.820 he just roasts

00:44:37.740 everybody and

00:44:38.360 he's like that's

00:44:39.000 you I'm

00:44:39.500 talking about

00:44:40.100 you and

00:44:40.940 they're all

00:44:41.200 laughing at

00:44:41.680 themselves

00:44:42.120 yeah yeah

00:44:43.940 it's wild but

00:44:44.500 I mean it's

00:44:44.900 super important

00:44:45.460 too because

00:44:46.200 I guess for

00:44:48.940 a lot of

00:44:49.340 reasons one

00:44:50.020 is that

00:44:50.600 that is a

00:44:52.580 very consumable

00:44:53.760 type of

00:44:54.400 content like

00:44:55.100 it's if

00:44:56.540 somebody just

00:44:57.060 stood up

00:44:57.420 there and

00:44:58.240 spoke the

00:44:59.260 way I do

00:44:59.800 just monotone

00:45:00.780 and like

00:45:01.520 these guys

00:45:02.180 are assholes

00:45:02.900 there's a

00:45:03.620 bunch of

00:45:03.840 people that

00:45:04.120 are gonna

00:45:04.300 agree with

00:45:04.700 me but

00:45:04.940 it's not

00:45:05.240 gonna really

00:45:05.680 motivate anybody

00:45:06.400 to do

00:45:06.760 anything in

00:45:08.120 the masses

00:45:08.620 right like

00:45:08.980 my audience

00:45:09.840 is pretty

00:45:10.220 niche it's

00:45:10.900 mostly dudes

00:45:11.600 that think

00:45:12.100 like I do

00:45:12.640 or not

00:45:13.120 think like

00:45:13.460 I do

00:45:13.700 but dudes

00:45:14.160 that receive

00:45:15.040 information like

00:45:15.740 this right

00:45:16.320 but the

00:45:17.260 average person

00:45:18.260 if you can

00:45:19.340 make it a

00:45:20.280 thoughtful

00:45:20.660 comedic

00:45:22.020 situation

00:45:22.700 then that

00:45:23.180 really speaks

00:45:23.680 to people

00:45:24.120 and the

00:45:25.660 parable is a

00:45:26.800 very old

00:45:27.460 teaching device

00:45:28.560 as well

00:45:28.940 I mean there's

00:45:29.280 a reason that

00:45:29.800 Jesus spoke in

00:45:30.480 parables right

00:45:31.180 it's because

00:45:31.840 he wanted

00:45:32.260 like if you

00:45:33.420 if I say

00:45:34.200 stealing is

00:45:35.200 bad right

00:45:36.160 that is a

00:45:37.120 maxim and

00:45:38.600 it's black

00:45:39.760 and white

00:45:40.140 it's very

00:45:40.640 clear but

00:45:42.360 if I give

00:45:43.240 you

00:45:43.520 if I give

00:45:46.400 you an

00:45:46.620 example

00:45:47.140 like a

00:45:49.660 full story

00:45:50.560 about theft

00:45:51.360 right and

00:45:51.960 what what the

00:45:52.760 underlying

00:45:53.300 problem of

00:45:54.440 it really

00:45:54.880 is right

00:45:55.580 that it's

00:45:56.500 that it's a

00:45:56.900 violation of

00:45:57.520 somebody's

00:45:58.340 sovereignty as

00:46:00.340 a human being

00:46:01.140 you know what I

00:46:01.820 mean now you

00:46:02.640 understand why

00:46:03.180 it's wrong

00:46:03.580 and it's

00:46:03.800 why I like

00:46:04.360 to read the

00:46:05.560 red parts in

00:46:06.200 the Bible

00:46:06.560 though I'm

00:46:06.960 not particularly

00:46:07.400 religious myself

00:46:08.320 one of the

00:46:09.740 most misunderstood

00:46:10.620 stories in

00:46:13.580 all of human

00:46:14.220 history is the

00:46:15.080 good Samaritan

00:46:15.740 right like we

00:46:16.840 think of this

00:46:17.380 story of the

00:46:17.800 good Samaritan

00:46:18.320 as a guy who

00:46:19.380 just helped his

00:46:20.040 neighbor well

00:46:20.520 that's not

00:46:20.860 strictly speaking

00:46:21.520 true the

00:46:21.940 Samaritans and

00:46:22.580 the Judeans the

00:46:23.400 Israelis they

00:46:23.980 were fucking

00:46:24.480 enemies yeah

00:46:25.480 they hated each

00:46:26.100 other right

00:46:26.620 that's the

00:46:27.860 story the

00:46:28.380 story is that

00:46:29.060 this dude had

00:46:30.660 a couple of

00:46:31.140 friends walk by

00:46:31.900 and weren't

00:46:32.180 willing to do

00:46:32.620 shit for him

00:46:33.240 but this guy

00:46:33.720 who's supposed

00:46:34.120 to be his

00:46:34.500 enemy walked

00:46:34.960 by he's like

00:46:35.340 you know what

00:46:35.560 I'm gonna help

00:46:35.980 this guy because

00:46:36.480 it's the right

00:46:36.880 thing to do

00:46:37.460 you know what I

00:46:38.000 mean right

00:46:38.540 that's a story

00:46:39.360 that's how you

00:46:40.300 use language and

00:46:42.180 prose to tell a

00:46:43.780 story that breaks

00:46:44.620 through tribalism

00:46:45.800 and base level

00:46:47.640 caveman thinking

00:46:48.800 and gets right to

00:46:49.600 the fucking point

00:46:50.320 your duty on this

00:46:51.600 earth is to

00:46:52.560 maximize human

00:46:53.720 joy to whatever

00:46:54.960 degree you can

00:46:55.800 right and

00:46:57.320 minimize human

00:46:58.220 suffering that is

00:46:58.960 your that is your

00:46:59.680 purpose on this

00:47:00.380 earth and

00:47:01.460 now that you've

00:47:03.340 got a purpose

00:47:04.240 right you've got

00:47:05.940 a map you've got

00:47:06.620 a direction now

00:47:07.940 you know where to

00:47:08.440 go because if

00:47:09.060 you're heading

00:47:09.380 nowhere that's

00:47:10.000 where you're gonna

00:47:10.340 get man if you're

00:47:11.060 just kind of floating

00:47:11.640 through life reacting

00:47:13.000 to things day to

00:47:13.720 day that's not

00:47:14.280 life to me like

00:47:15.720 that that one of

00:47:18.440 the primary things

00:47:19.340 that creates and

00:47:21.420 stimulates anxiety is

00:47:23.060 not knowing right

00:47:24.300 not knowing where the

00:47:25.200 next meal is gonna

00:47:25.900 come from not just

00:47:27.680 not knowing how your

00:47:28.900 relationships are gonna

00:47:29.740 go not knowing if

00:47:30.620 you're gonna get

00:47:30.980 that promotion all

00:47:32.160 these things are

00:47:32.860 what create anxiety

00:47:34.100 in life if you

00:47:35.920 don't have a very

00:47:37.040 clear and focused

00:47:38.080 purpose in your

00:47:38.760 life all of your

00:47:39.880 life will be bound

00:47:40.780 by anxiety always

00:47:42.100 right and we wonder

00:47:43.320 now why people are

00:47:45.020 on SSRIs when we

00:47:46.320 have more suicides

00:47:47.260 than we've ever had

00:47:47.900 before while people

00:47:48.720 are depressed for no

00:47:49.680 reason that's why

00:47:51.340 because you aren't

00:47:52.400 heading in the right

00:47:53.160 direction you are an

00:47:54.860 Australian shepherd with

00:47:55.900 no job to do you're

00:47:56.760 an Australian shepherd in

00:47:57.740 a lower east side

00:47:59.740 Manhattan five floor

00:48:01.260 walk up yeah right

00:48:02.440 that's where you are

00:48:03.600 like you're out of

00:48:04.560 place you're not where

00:48:05.440 you're supposed to be

00:48:06.220 and that's why you

00:48:06.720 don't feel good when

00:48:08.720 it comes to finding

00:48:09.440 that purpose is is

00:48:11.060 it just I mean

00:48:12.960 exploration sure but

00:48:14.400 is it doing the

00:48:15.440 right thing you know

00:48:16.160 I was thinking about

00:48:16.680 this a couple of

00:48:17.620 weeks ago maybe a

00:48:18.360 couple of months ago

00:48:18.920 I was driving down

00:48:19.520 the road and I

00:48:20.080 happened to go on

00:48:21.460 this road that goes

00:48:22.420 through some sand

00:48:23.240 dunes in southern

00:48:23.840 Utah and I saw a

00:48:25.420 guy and he was stuck

00:48:26.440 his truck was stuck

00:48:27.520 in there and I

00:48:28.660 drove by I'm like

00:48:29.400 oh that sucks and

00:48:30.500 I got probably 200

00:48:31.760 yards down the road

00:48:32.700 I'm like what am I

00:48:33.720 doing so I stopped

00:48:35.680 and I turned around

00:48:36.840 I'm like hey man you

00:48:37.860 need some help and

00:48:38.640 he's like yeah I do

00:48:39.260 need some help it's

00:48:40.500 like all right cool so

00:48:41.240 I back the truck up

00:48:42.100 get the toe strap out

00:48:43.100 throw it on there

00:48:43.900 pull him right out

00:48:44.620 popped right out and

00:48:46.240 he's like oh thank

00:48:47.300 you so much his wife

00:48:48.280 was on the phone

00:48:48.880 telling whoever that

00:48:49.780 they were gonna be

00:48:50.240 late and stuck in the

00:48:51.300 sand dunes and he

00:48:52.720 comes over he's like

00:48:53.340 hey thanks man and

00:48:54.140 he and he tries to

00:48:55.460 give me a $20 bill

00:48:56.580 I'm like no no no

00:48:59.020 he's like no really

00:48:59.960 it's for your time

00:49:00.900 I'm like nah just

00:49:01.780 being able to be

00:49:02.360 helpful is enough

00:49:04.220 like that's the

00:49:05.040 point you don't need

00:49:05.600 to pay me $20 and

00:49:07.860 you know I think

00:49:09.820 about that and I

00:49:10.600 think about where I

00:49:11.280 seen examples of

00:49:12.220 other people doing

00:49:12.880 that which is where

00:49:13.540 I think comes from

00:49:14.560 when I do that I

00:49:16.100 I hate to say that

00:49:17.020 there are times where

00:49:17.780 I would pass that

00:49:18.380 truck by but my

00:49:20.100 my better nature in

00:49:22.060 that case one is

00:49:24.640 that what we can

00:49:25.660 do to find some

00:49:26.420 purpose in life is

00:49:27.320 just looking for

00:49:28.120 those opportunities

00:49:28.740 to serve in our

00:49:29.520 own unique ways or

00:49:30.440 or what else would

00:49:31.220 you suggest well I

00:49:32.920 would start there

00:49:33.580 yeah I mean certainly

00:49:35.020 that that's why I'm

00:49:37.060 not I wouldn't start

00:49:38.080 there but that is the

00:49:38.840 lowest hanging fruit

00:49:39.720 right that's the

00:49:40.700 easiest one to

00:49:41.340 figure out one of

00:49:42.240 the principles of the

00:49:43.260 citizen concept is

00:49:45.960 I'll do something

00:49:46.500 every day to help my

00:49:47.260 country my countrymen

00:49:48.280 or all men right and

00:49:49.740 it's basically a bolo

00:49:50.700 be on the lookout for

00:49:51.640 opportunities to help

00:49:52.360 people they will

00:49:52.840 present themselves

00:49:53.600 even if it's just

00:49:54.680 holding the door for

00:49:55.420 somebody every single

00:49:56.340 day you get an

00:49:56.960 opportunity to help

00:49:57.580 somebody except for

00:49:58.800 maybe me next week

00:49:59.920 because I'm not

00:50:00.800 leaving my fucking

00:50:01.420 house I'm not putting

00:50:03.780 pants on it's the only

00:50:05.000 week of the year I

00:50:05.580 take off so I'm not

00:50:06.320 doing shit but yeah

00:50:07.440 generally speaking most

00:50:08.600 of the time you can do

00:50:09.240 that yeah but yeah

00:50:10.840 you like so the one

00:50:12.460 of the truly best human

00:50:14.060 beings I know is TJ

00:50:15.540 Lavin he's the host of

00:50:17.060 MTV's The Challenge

00:50:18.040 professional BMX guy

00:50:20.780 back in the day he

00:50:21.600 was like a revolutionary

00:50:22.980 guy on a bike which

00:50:24.600 I'm not really into all

00:50:25.420 that stuff but that is a

00:50:26.880 fact lives in Vegas he

00:50:29.320 drives around in his

00:50:30.260 old beat-up fucking

00:50:31.120 truck looking for people

00:50:32.320 that are broke down on

00:50:33.140 the whenever he's bored

00:50:34.240 and he's got a day off

00:50:35.180 because he goes for like

00:50:37.020 three four months at a

00:50:37.820 time on location in

00:50:41.020 different countries to

00:50:41.780 film the show when he

00:50:42.780 comes back I'm sure it's

00:50:44.140 just his wife is like

00:50:44.900 dude you got to get the

00:50:45.500 fuck out of this house

00:50:46.160 now or otherwise we're

00:50:47.200 going to lose our minds

00:50:48.040 but she's awesome too

00:50:51.020 but yeah he just like

00:50:52.580 drives around Vegas on

00:50:53.640 the freeway looking for

00:50:54.580 people that are broke

00:50:55.460 down or something I'm

00:50:56.180 like all right that's

00:50:57.060 something to do yeah but

00:50:58.460 you know it gets deeper

00:50:59.520 than that too like like I

00:51:00.860 said before you know we

00:51:03.360 all have to take care of

00:51:04.380 our tribes it's there

00:51:06.280 there's I'm sure everybody

00:51:08.000 remembers the old

00:51:10.780 Jesus the old saying in

00:51:16.180 the Bible about you know

00:51:17.360 removing the plank out

00:51:19.120 of your own eye before

00:51:19.900 examining the speck in

00:51:21.140 somebody else's eye it's

00:51:22.420 like that's that isn't

00:51:23.620 just about judgment it's

00:51:24.840 also about reminding you

00:51:26.400 that your responsibility

00:51:27.220 begins closest to you

00:51:28.980 right and that's how it's

00:51:30.320 supposed to work like the

00:51:31.200 more effort we put in it

00:51:32.260 close to us the less

00:51:33.740 effort is needed from the

00:51:35.260 the larger group back

00:51:37.500 towards us right which one

00:51:38.860 makes us a value add

00:51:40.360 instead of a value drain

00:51:41.460 and two it makes our

00:51:42.620 community less susceptible

00:51:43.900 to external influence which

00:51:45.220 are those are both extremely

00:51:46.420 good things now you know

00:51:49.700 I have people ask me well

00:51:50.640 how do you find that

00:51:51.440 thing that really matters

00:51:53.320 I'll here's what I'll say

00:51:54.860 to you the part of you

00:51:57.160 that loves the thing you

00:51:58.940 love the most in the world

00:51:59.960 that is the best part of

00:52:01.080 you right like all of the

00:52:02.680 biological mechanisms you

00:52:03.940 have in your body and

00:52:04.900 brain that are telling you

00:52:06.440 to care about that thing

00:52:07.780 that is the best part of

00:52:08.900 you and that's the part

00:52:09.660 that you should feed and

00:52:11.140 nurture and it's the part

00:52:12.540 you should you should

00:52:13.400 discover it right like I

00:52:15.000 really care like maybe

00:52:16.360 maybe it's an issue maybe

00:52:19.060 homelessness or something

00:52:19.940 like that maybe it's kids

00:52:21.440 maybe you want to help

00:52:22.360 kids maybe it's like your

00:52:24.060 wife right maybe it's your

00:52:25.480 kids whatever who knows

00:52:27.080 it's going to be different

00:52:27.680 for everybody and maybe it

00:52:29.380 changes throughout your

00:52:32.120 lifetime as well but the

00:52:33.640 fact is that is the best

00:52:35.160 part of you right and in

00:52:37.180 every sense of the word

00:52:38.000 philosophical ethical moral

00:52:40.040 but also biological right

00:52:42.160 every fucking biological

00:52:43.480 urge you have is designed

00:52:45.940 for something good you

00:52:47.220 know what I mean it's

00:52:47.720 designed to keep you alive

00:52:48.760 to keep the community

00:52:49.880 safe to make you a better

00:52:51.220 husband father whatever and

00:52:53.320 you should really if if if

00:52:56.940 you're so inclined meditate

00:52:59.220 on that think about and

00:53:00.880 there's some ways you can

00:53:01.860 go about kind of

00:53:02.500 discovering that you know

00:53:04.160 imagine you're imagine

00:53:05.940 you're on your deathbed you're

00:53:07.440 90 what's and you've got

00:53:09.400 moments left to live what

00:53:10.620 do you think what do you

00:53:11.660 think about what's that one

00:53:12.860 thing you think about that's

00:53:14.260 what you care about right

00:53:15.380 go go put some effort into

00:53:17.880 that put some real effort

00:53:19.140 into that and you know not

00:53:21.940 only will you improve that

00:53:24.360 thing and your own life

00:53:25.840 because as Gandhi said if you

00:53:28.100 if you want to find

00:53:29.360 yourself lose yourself in the

00:53:30.620 service of others right that

00:53:32.200 is a universal maximum that

00:53:33.460 applies to all human beings

00:53:34.800 not only will you do that but

00:53:37.180 you'll learn how to open

00:53:39.280 that part of yourself up to

00:53:40.720 all the other things that

00:53:41.540 matter to you as well and

00:53:43.200 it will make you a better

00:53:44.080 man it'll make you a better

00:53:45.200 person it'll make your

00:53:45.980 community better as well and

00:53:47.440 if enough people do that if

00:53:48.960 a critical mass of people do

00:53:50.740 that then you will start to

00:53:52.140 see the world around you

00:53:53.340 change as well it's it's sad

00:53:57.060 in a way because there's so

00:53:58.140 many people that already have

00:54:00.060 identified to some degree what

00:54:02.040 that purpose might be but the

00:54:04.400 next breath is but I can't I

00:54:07.760 don't have any time I don't

00:54:09.000 have any money I have

00:54:10.100 responsibilities I can't

00:54:11.480 because of this I can't

00:54:12.500 because of that they've

00:54:13.920 already identified it and I

00:54:15.180 actually think that's even

00:54:16.680 more disparaging than not

00:54:18.900 knowing what it is sure yeah I

00:54:22.260 mean it's like look there's

00:54:24.520 nothing there's nothing more

00:54:27.860 dangerous to themselves no one

00:54:31.320 rather than more dangerous to

00:54:32.220 themselves than a than a man

00:54:36.000 who feels useless right they

00:54:38.420 become self-destructive I mean

00:54:39.820 we know it from the military

00:54:41.000 right probably ourselves and

00:54:44.080 everybody we know that we're in

00:54:45.520 the military maybe there's some

00:54:46.600 exceptions go through this

00:54:49.180 transition period some never

00:54:51.640 make it out where we have a

00:54:53.920 very clear and defined purpose

00:54:55.140 that we were fully capable of

00:54:56.360 doing and then that thing is

00:54:57.920 removed from our lives for one

00:54:59.580 reason or another we age out we

00:55:01.060 get out we met out whatever it

00:55:02.580 is and there's this new

00:55:04.820 discovery process where you

00:55:06.540 know it is that there's that

00:55:11.540 point in life where your hopes

00:55:13.260 and desires don't match your

00:55:14.760 capabilities at the time right

00:55:16.300 but we've been there before right

00:55:18.360 we've been there before we've

00:55:19.920 been there as children when we

00:55:21.260 were learning a new sport or a

00:55:22.500 skill or learning a language or

00:55:23.860 whatever it was right learning

00:55:24.900 math not that that necessarily

00:55:26.560 matters to you much but right but

00:55:28.180 learning how to do something that

00:55:29.620 you really want to be good at

00:55:30.820 going through boot camp getting

00:55:33.360 to your unit and learning all

00:55:34.520 the new the actual stuff that

00:55:35.820 you need to know right because

00:55:37.100 you're amongst your peers people

00:55:38.400 that you respect and you want to

00:55:39.460 be as good or better than they

00:55:41.340 are because you their respect

00:55:42.780 means something to you we've been

00:55:43.900 here before that situation you're

00:55:45.760 describing every single one of us

00:55:47.100 has been there before and we

00:55:48.500 figured out a way to move past it

00:55:50.840 and to get better now it was

00:55:53.600 easier then because we were

00:55:55.080 children we had mentors or we were

00:55:56.840 in the military and we had

00:55:57.760 sergeants right telling us what to

00:55:59.800 do now you're on your own to some

00:56:02.040 degree and it's it's quite it is

00:56:03.420 quite a bit tougher to do it but

00:56:05.140 there isn't it isn't like there

00:56:08.000 isn't a roadmap for some of this

00:56:10.420 stuff I was talking to Tom Satterly

00:56:13.760 at a party last week about this

00:56:14.980 actually me and some some other dudes

00:56:17.100 that served in the in the special

00:56:19.080 operations community along well not

00:56:21.420 not with Tom but after him and they

00:56:26.200 were just discussing all the work he

00:56:28.380 does charitable work he does now

00:56:29.840 about helping people couples

00:56:31.240 especially recover from some of this

00:56:32.820 bullshit and you know one of the

00:56:36.380 comments that my buddy made to him

00:56:38.300 was you have like all the pain and

00:56:42.720 suffering you went through has has

00:56:44.620 limited the pain and suffering that I'm

00:56:48.620 now having to go through when I get

00:56:50.120 out because you you walked you're

00:56:52.720 Meriwether Lewis you know you're

00:56:55.400 you're you're you're Lewis and Clark

00:56:57.480 right you're you're the you guys

00:57:00.020 walked this very difficult path and

00:57:02.640 made it through on the other side

00:57:04.540 right and now I know the shortcut now

00:57:07.520 I know that I don't have to just sit

00:57:09.140 and drink myself to death when this is

00:57:10.660 over right I know that I can make it

00:57:13.200 because you did and that's a very

00:57:16.820 powerful tool and we owe a lot to

00:57:18.360 those people and you know that all

00:57:21.520 that to say not to hype him up

00:57:22.980 necessarily although he deserves it

00:57:24.300 but the point of that is that there

00:57:26.620 are people out there who have done

00:57:28.060 what you're trying to do right I mean

00:57:31.640 one of the one of the biggest

00:57:32.760 commercial campaigns in the history

00:57:34.920 of the world was be like Mike right

00:57:37.200 and I'm not well I mean the world

00:57:39.280 every country on earth ran those

00:57:41.260 commercials every country that had a

00:57:42.500 television ran those commercials for

00:57:43.900 10 years right places that couldn't

00:57:46.120 even get Gatorade we're still running

00:57:47.520 those commercials you know what I

00:57:49.220 mean like there were middle you can

00:57:50.780 see you can look it up on the

00:57:51.820 internet now and find pictures there

00:57:53.580 are billboards of be like Mike with a

00:57:55.440 Gatorade mustache on Michael Jordan's

00:57:57.160 face in countries that don't have

00:57:58.880 Gatorade like Middle Eastern

00:58:00.380 country shithole places yeah it is the

00:58:03.320 most effective marketing campaign

00:58:04.920 probably in the history of the world

00:58:06.380 and why because it's aspirational it

00:58:09.500 says this guy did it so you can too

00:58:12.120 right yeah and that that's the if you

00:58:14.840 want to get back to the the nitty

00:58:16.480 gritty on this that is the point of

00:58:18.560 the story of Jesus that is the entire

00:58:20.620 point right like certainly I don't get

00:58:23.880 too in the weeds here but certainly

00:58:24.920 soteriology which is the study of the

00:58:26.900 doctrine of salvation is a is the crux

00:58:29.020 of Christianity but the point of the

00:58:30.700 Jesus story is that this is what this

00:58:35.020 is what it looks like to do life the

00:58:36.620 right way you know what I mean like

00:58:38.840 what it's not always easy to know how

00:58:41.520 to act in a certain situation but this

00:58:45.420 this this you know whether you

00:58:49.200 consider him God or not but this dude

00:58:50.700 this let's just say for the sake of

00:58:53.300 argument this deity chose to become a

00:58:55.220 man right just for the sake of the

00:58:56.920 story chose to become a man and live

00:58:59.380 that life to show you how to do it and

00:59:01.500 a big part of it is this is is

00:59:05.160 aspirational marketing right I want to

00:59:06.800 be like that that matters to me right I

00:59:09.000 want to I not not for myself because I

00:59:11.440 saw the impact it had and that's an

00:59:14.040 important thing right it matters who our

00:59:15.460 heroes are in culture you know what I

00:59:17.220 mean when our heroes are people like

00:59:19.080 like Jimmy Stewart who I don't know if

00:59:24.460 the younger crowd knows this but miracle

00:59:25.820 on 34th Street Mr. Smith goes to

00:59:28.380 Washington this guy who was a one of the

00:59:30.600 most successful actors in history leaves

00:59:34.060 acting three separate times to go to war

00:59:36.040 for this country retires as a lieutenant

00:59:38.040 general in the Air Force after going to

00:59:40.040 three different wars or three different

00:59:42.760 combat theaters not wars you know Bob

00:59:47.380 Feller Joe DiMaggio Ted Williams people

00:59:53.060 that left highly lucrative and successful

00:59:55.480 athlete our athletic careers in the middle

00:59:59.440 of their careers to go fight for this

01:00:01.440 country those were our heroes you know

01:00:03.200 what I mean men and what what would it

01:00:05.400 mean to be a hero it meant to put aside

01:00:07.280 your own bullshit and go sacrifice for

01:00:09.760 the good of everybody else yeah and now

01:00:12.200 who are heroes right if you ask a 15

01:00:15.300 year old kid today who his hero is it

01:00:17.140 isn't somebody yeah like it's a football

01:00:19.140 it isn't it isn't Tom it isn't Tom

01:00:21.000 Satterley you know what I mean it should

01:00:22.680 be but it's not so that's that's another

01:00:30.480 thing that's our fault you know what I

01:00:32.040 mean we stopped prioritizing that stuff

01:00:34.140 and again I blame the boomers man I

01:00:38.600 blame them for this well I also think

01:00:40.740 there's a responsibility for us to act

01:00:43.820 heroically right and to and to actually

01:00:46.580 be an example because our kids are

01:00:48.140 looking at us other people are looking

01:00:49.660 at us when I coach my kids sports I've

01:00:52.980 got other young kids on the team that you

01:00:55.480 know maybe their dads aren't around or

01:00:56.980 they don't have a good home life and so

01:00:58.640 it's my job to act that way I think I

01:01:02.600 saw a post that you'd made the other

01:01:03.820 day be who you want to be or be the kind

01:01:07.780 of person you want to be or do the kind

01:01:09.380 of thing that that the person you want to

01:01:11.300 be does something like the man you want

01:01:13.500 to be that's what it was yes act like the

01:01:15.360 man that you want to be I think I think

01:01:17.620 Jordan Peterson originally said that but

01:01:19.420 I've like I I've or at least that

01:01:21.840 particular phrase but I've been saying

01:01:24.860 something similar to that for a very

01:01:26.960 long time I actually think it came from

01:01:29.200 another discussion with the same first

01:01:30.740 sergeant back in the day but if you you

01:01:33.860 build an archetype in your mind and

01:01:35.540 again it's aspirational marketing right

01:01:37.520 you build an archetype of your mind of

01:01:39.480 the kind of man you want to be and you

01:01:41.700 go out and do the things you think that

01:01:43.360 man would do right it's what the what

01:01:45.540 would Jesus do bracelet if you remember

01:01:47.080 that yes of course and the 90s was

01:01:49.140 about it's like if you if you a very

01:01:53.060 concrete example is a mission statement

01:01:55.660 for a company right like every company

01:01:57.280 has a mission statement and and for

01:02:00.660 example when I was at black rifle the

01:02:01.900 mission statement was we serve coffee

01:02:03.240 and culture to people who love America

01:02:04.600 right and anybody anywhere in the

01:02:06.800 company from the sea level all the way

01:02:09.040 down to the lowest level employee any

01:02:11.500 decision you make does it support that

01:02:13.800 ethos because this is my underlying

01:02:15.520 ethos this is what I believe is what I'm

01:02:17.880 doing supporting what I believe it's the

01:02:19.920 same thing a good man would do X so in

01:02:23.500 situation why I'm doing X because I'm a

01:02:26.140 I don't I want to be a good man and

01:02:27.940 that's what a good man is a good man is

01:02:29.580 somebody who takes the opportunities to

01:02:31.780 do good for other people that's what a

01:02:33.740 good man is and you can transform

01:02:36.700 yourself like immediately by just doing

01:02:43.020 nobody can make you do the wrong thing

01:02:44.840 only you can make that decision nobody

01:02:47.200 can make you quit only you can make that

01:02:48.960 decision and it's quite a bit easier

01:02:52.980 frankly to do good in my opinion right

01:02:56.500 now there's a principle called Satya

01:02:58.400 Graha it's what the what the concept of

01:03:03.720 passive resistance is based on it's an

01:03:05.580 old Hindu principle and what it means is

01:03:08.840 it isn't just passive resistance what it

01:03:11.000 really means is that I'm going to do the

01:03:12.300 right thing and accept whatever

01:03:13.400 consequences may come I'm doing it I

01:03:15.420 don't give a fuck what happens right

01:03:16.840 right arrest me you can throw me in jail

01:03:18.920 you can kill me I'm doing the right

01:03:20.660 thing and you can't fucking stop me

01:03:22.600 right that's what it really means the

01:03:25.420 whole civil rights movement was based in

01:03:26.840 that right and that's something that we

01:03:29.920 desperately need to get back to like

01:03:31.580 this idea of being canceled or fired or

01:03:34.660 judged or any of this bullshit indicted

01:03:38.820 having your stuff taken away fuck that

01:03:41.840 right because they can take your freedom

01:03:46.400 they can take all your stuff but only you

01:03:49.480 can take your honor only you can give

01:03:51.200 that away right and that's the thing

01:03:53.280 that matters the most because if enough

01:03:55.180 people again if a critical mass of men

01:03:57.660 especially in a community have honor

01:03:59.780 there's nothing anybody can do to stop

01:04:01.340 them ever yeah Dan that's powerful I've

01:04:05.820 been taking notes you see my head down

01:04:07.160 I've been like feverishly taking notes

01:04:08.720 over here and I got a lot of notes for

01:04:10.460 this one man I really appreciate your

01:04:13.120 insight on all this I've been connected

01:04:14.800 with you for years at this point and

01:04:16.900 always find what you share really

01:04:18.200 insightful not that we always agree on

01:04:20.160 everything but certainly gives me some

01:04:22.960 things to consider and think about can

01:04:24.440 you tell the guys where to learn more

01:04:26.900 about what you're up to with the

01:04:28.180 citizen podcast drinking bros podcast

01:04:30.060 and everything else you have going on

01:04:31.640 well you just said two of them right that

01:04:33.800 makes it easier for me yeah stole

01:04:35.380 a little bit yeah well you can find me at

01:04:38.240 at Dan Holloway it's H-O-L-L-A-W-A-Y

01:04:41.120 because some people in my family were not

01:04:44.440 good spellers I guess but you'll figure

01:04:47.020 it out buddy yeah yeah yeah yeah I guess

01:04:49.480 yeah you can find me anywhere under that

01:04:52.380 name and then yeah drinking bros podcast

01:04:54.060 we do a lot of stuff in the veteran

01:04:55.380 space that's our main veteran and police

01:04:58.820 right that's our main thing and it's

01:05:00.240 because we believe in the institutions

01:05:03.820 that protect us they're under attack in a

01:05:06.340 in a meaningful way right now right

01:05:08.240 masculinity itself has been under attack

01:05:10.400 for a while and you know the the idea

01:05:14.280 that we should capitulate to that to be a

01:05:18.160 gentler sort is the dumbest shit I've

01:05:21.160 ever heard in my life right like your job

01:05:25.580 is to protect the herd man to protect the

01:05:27.960 tribe do not fucking don't get soft it's

01:05:31.600 it's not okay to do that and in addition

01:05:33.720 to that stand up for the people that

01:05:36.460 protect you right like this Daniel

01:05:42.060 is a it is an it's a national

01:05:44.220 embarrassment it's one of the most

01:05:45.320 embarrassing thing that's happened in

01:05:46.480 this country in a very long time it's

01:05:48.600 like truly made me feel humiliated for

01:05:51.680 some amount of time fuck that stand up

01:05:55.020 for what's right do the right thing

01:05:56.500 nobody can stop you from doing the right

01:05:57.920 thing only you can stop that and then we

01:06:42.360 that opportunity soak it in a little bit
