Sometimes I think we might amplify them and fall prey to them, but they make money on
00:00:09.380
I hate it when commentators pretend they're not benefiting off of the division.
00:00:16.140
So Brett Cooper, a married mother, you know, last week she did something based, which is
1.00
00:00:24.060
You know, even though she never admits that she's terrible, I'm terrible, she's terrible,
0.99
00:00:28.940
um then she goes on to do a woman thing now just imagine being like a married mother you're like
1.00
00:00:35.300
mom why aren't you at home and you just look online and your mother's sitting down with a
1.00
00:00:39.560
drag queen now here's the thing this is a woman again she's not going to put her career down for
0.99
00:00:43.380
her kids marketed herself as different but exactly the same which is fine we're all the same and now
1.00
00:00:49.200
she's doing this like sit down with this drag queen and i'm like why is a married mother
00:00:52.900
sitting down with the drag queen um i actually don't know what uh they're going to talk about
1.00
00:00:57.880
but let's let's react and see what they say a right-wing youtuber and a leftist drag queen
00:01:03.640
let's get that bunny yeah okay there we go in a skirt guys cooper and patagonia have a history
00:01:10.680
that has divided them i feel like you see in the woods is going to be the sky his name is
00:01:14.120
patagonia they're on two opposite sides of the political spectrum this jesus person who was
0.68
00:01:19.080
definitely queer it was definitely a person of color but today they're so again women don't
0.57
00:01:24.600
really believe anything because again um you're not going to get conviction and disgust in her
1.00
00:01:29.640
voice because she doesn't really care she's like making money off of the conservative simps and
1.00
00:01:35.080
going home to her family um and then still making friends with the drag queen
00:01:40.120
gus one specific important topic the environment excellent i give lots of
00:01:45.000
tell me we identify as a beach or a mountain what about swamp i just literally oh he's a bit of a
00:01:51.480
lizard but i do appreciate oh that's his company babe all right well okay maybe something a little
00:01:56.280
less controversial will they become more united by nature that's the question we will seek and
00:02:02.200
never answer on the fire pit if you feel that inside get outside every day people say to me
00:02:11.640
the earth is in danger the environment is in peril you may even think there's no hope left for
00:02:16.280
humanity it's easy to dwell in despair but i decided to do something about it i've assembled
00:02:22.840
a team of experts who can help solve once and for all each and every one of these issues and i think
00:02:27.960
today we'll crack the formula here at the fire pit let me introduce you to patty gonia salt of the
00:02:36.920
earth midwestern individual and brett cooper hollywood actress and woke social media influencer
0.91
00:02:46.360
now they are no doubt formidable enemies but they're gonna have to put their differences
1.00
00:02:51.800
aside today to fix the planet now ladies did i um mischaracterize you in any way whatsoever would
00:02:58.520
you like to introduce yourselves in your own way sure go for it patagonia i'm happy to be here i'm
00:03:05.080
so happy to be here i'm happy to be here with you there goes nothing i know you know i really do feel
00:03:09.560
like uh nature is worth talking about so i'm excited to talk about it you know do you think
00:03:16.200
that we might find that we have more in common than we think i already think we do and i'm very
00:03:21.640
excited about it okay so brett are you a woke social media influencer no i get it she said
00:03:27.640
she has more in common with a drag queen i you know if i if i sit down with this broad i want
00:03:33.960
want to say i have nothing in common with you i don't want to meet in the middle on anything
00:03:39.100
unfortunately i'm not i would make a lot more money i think if i was oh really yeah but no
00:03:44.400
that's the most disingenuous thing you're worth millions of dollars uh again if you were like me
0.99
00:03:50.600
right and you shit on women then you'd be broke well you still pander so just i like to be accurate
0.99
00:03:57.000
right here. I'm not but I was a child actor so you got part of
1.00
00:04:01.040
that. Okay, cool right, but now she was born, right. Yes,
00:04:05.200
Washington more in Tennessee raised sort of Los Angeles
00:04:08.840
raised as well. But yeah, excellent at he gone. Yeah,
00:04:16.880
I am a drag queen. I'm an environmentalist to things kind
0.97
00:04:22.800
of new to different people. I think the environmental
00:04:30.700
the drag crowd is really new to the environment and I love
0.99
00:04:33.500
an unlikely duo. I think that's what we need. I think
0.90
00:04:35.940
the world needs Brett Cooper and patagonia and I love
00:04:38.980
getting to use who I am and what I'm good at to fight for
00:04:41.780
what I believe in in this world. It is amazing to stand
00:04:45.620
up for what you believe in. I think a lot of people in a lot
00:04:51.680
not say what we believe the thing that I care about most
00:04:54.380
that I think about every single day before I sit down in front of a camera is like, can I empower
00:04:58.420
people to say what they believe, even if it's something that I disagree with and give you
00:05:02.860
courage to be bold in your convictions and live a life that is meaningful and creates value in
00:05:08.100
whatever your value system is. We've all been divided by forces that we're not are creating.
00:05:15.200
Sometimes I think we might amplify them and fall prey to them, but they make money on dividing us.
00:05:21.380
and so i think you make money off a division i hate it you know what i hate i hate being
00:05:25.300
disingenuous right i hate it when commentators pretend they're not benefiting off of the division
0.51
00:05:32.340
you benefit off a conflict we all know on here i'm gonna have to debate again because it just
00:05:37.220
makes so much more money i hate debate i hate it um but yeah you know everyone profits from
00:05:45.140
in media profits from conflict we are crashing that system else are you sitting down with a drag
0.87
00:05:49.700
queen you know what i mean by sitting down today and doing this i'm excited you correct me if i'm
1.00
00:05:54.420
wrong you're both slightly different politically on the spectrum right okay we'll see we'll find
00:06:01.060
out right we'll see what i want to know is it more important to ask the question liberal versus
00:06:06.420
conservative or working class versus billionaire women or men i think that's the most important
0.87
00:06:13.700
question because liberal and conservative are like the same on three one two three working class
00:06:21.300
versus billionaire okay and why is that why is that what what do you have against billionaires
00:06:26.660
they've given us so much i think it's less about like billionaires and more about an elite class
00:06:32.420
that involves some billionaires but does in large part involve our government um i just can't believe
00:06:38.740
we're thinking that the 20 something year old knows anything about government
00:06:46.580
and the ruling class i would say and the fact that they're so caught up in their agendas and
00:06:50.660
their division in the way that they profit off of our outrage working against our interests
00:06:56.420
and leaving the working class uh completely feeling alienated and disappearing in a lot
00:07:01.460
of ways i mean we're watching the middle class just completely dissipate and so i think that's
0.66
00:07:05.940
as a women not billionaires billionaires adjust because they want to make money but women did
00:07:11.780
that because um women don't want to get with average men and she's one of the women that
0.90
00:07:16.980
does not get with an average man so you know and i'm it just is what it is and also we pay
0.99
00:07:23.460
the price of anything no matter how expensive it gets allowing everybody to increase the price of
00:07:27.940
everything i also think politics is so fluid in a lot of ways like there are some things i'm like
00:07:34.500
oh yeah i'm very conservative on this and then there's other issues where i'm like i really
00:07:37.460
don't care and my side really yeah conservative one it benefits her because she's a woman right
00:07:41.780
that's how we say there's no real conservative women pisses me off brett cooper says politics
0.70
00:07:46.100
are fluid and i say hell yeah queer agenda um yeah uh oh god billionaires i just you love them
0.83
00:07:57.780
no oh i think if i had a dream world i would make far less billionaires in america to make
0.71
00:08:09.280
room for more of us to be millionaires like that's what i want i want everyone to be successful
00:08:15.240
yeah you can't make lazy people be successful not to say i i think um if anything we just
1.00
00:08:21.100
got to stop giving women these stupid jobs that make no money hypocritical i benefit from a stupid
0.99
00:08:26.360
job because i'm here talking for a living right but you know i can be honest about it um like honestly
1.00
00:08:35.880
i'm anti-influencer even though i am one i think we got to take away money from media
00:08:40.760
and give it to the working class i just want for it to be an even ball game and as long as
00:08:47.560
money is in politics and billionaires can fund politics apac can fund politics israel can fund
00:08:53.880
politics i think that's where my billionaire alarm goes off do you think billionaires are weird yeah
00:09:00.280
do i feel like most of them are like snake people yeah uh but i do think that
00:09:07.080
there's just an intersection of politics and billionaire funding that is so wrong
00:09:12.760
and produces such the wrong outcome for the majority of americans and it's just incredible
0.99
00:09:18.360
that this got almost a million views why do we care what a woman in a drag like the problem is
00:09:25.240
actually summarized in this video that people care what a woman and a drag queen have to say
0.77
00:09:29.080
about billionaires neither of these are credible people you know what i mean it's a woman doesn't
00:09:34.920
know anything a drag queen who's obviously mentally unstable because i don't know why a sane person
0.56
00:09:40.200
would do that all i want is the best possible future for the most number of people that's my
00:09:46.440
dream america yeah i would love to know a little bit more about you brett about your relationship
00:09:51.320
to environmentalism and even the word climate change yeah so it came from my dad's love of the
00:09:58.840
outdoors my brothers are all eagle scouts he was the scout leader as was my mom uh they raised my
00:10:06.280
brothers and then i was born on an island in the san juans which is just i think in my opinion the
00:10:11.480
in the most beautiful part of the country as a kid inspired
00:10:14.980
by my mom I always wanted to have a farm and we bounced
00:10:17.880
around and never really got to have one or do that that was
00:10:20.360
like always my mom's pipe dream when she was a kid actually
00:10:22.760
when I was 17 or 18. She moved to Idaho and started a homestead
0.84
00:10:28.260
at 60 years old and learned it all herself and built it
00:10:31.600
herself to be there alongside her. And then when I got married
00:10:37.940
my husband and I randomly we were wanting to buy land and we because our dream has always
00:10:44.420
been to raise our children in wide open spaces and give her a dream he just went along with
00:10:49.440
them fresh air and be able to get immune thanks to the dirt um and we found this amazing farm
00:10:57.280
outside of Nashville and we bought it and we moved in and so now we are raising cows
00:11:02.420
and poultry we have mules and pigs and we're doing the whole thing and I've become increasingly
00:11:07.880
more grateful for this land and protecting it, especially through agriculture and trying to
00:11:14.440
advocate for more regenerative and sustainable modes of agriculture. I think that that's a great
00:11:20.080
way of protecting and enriching and actually using this amazing land that we live on. How do you feel
00:11:25.160
like you being a mother has changed your politics when it comes to nature or just change your
00:11:34.620
politics in general. I'm really curious to hear about how you as a mom, how that might have
00:11:39.900
changed things for you, how it stayed the same, also how you're able to reach people that maybe
00:11:44.960
I wouldn't be able to reach. The thing that I keep thinking about and that is most prevalent
00:11:49.620
is that it's not that I care less about what people think since becoming a mother,
00:11:55.420
because I do. That's something that I work on every single day. I'm definitely a people pleaser.
00:11:59.620
I have myself muted on all social media sites. I don't want to know what people are saying. I
00:12:03.200
to hear any discourse but i am more comfortable pushing through that for my son's benefit so i
00:12:10.400
think i give less of an f now not sure if i can swear um yeah you can see that in her behavior
0.97
00:12:16.480
because when women get a kid they they get leverage and they get worse as people so um you
1.00
00:12:22.240
know giving the eyes to clavicular but you know it is what it is um it's like the bait and switch
1.00
00:12:27.600
you got to be yourself after the ring and the kid you can swear excellent i give less of a
0.97
00:12:32.880
fuck um and that doesn't mean that i am any less impacted by criticism or people pushing back but
0.97
00:12:41.280
i'm emboldened in what i'm saying in a way that i don't think i was before and i also think that
0.99
00:12:47.680
it has forced me and also just things over the past year just watching politics and culture
00:12:53.520
unfold and change i think we're in a very very uh dramatic and changing landscape in terms of
00:12:59.440
politics but also media and who is relevant and who the powerful voices are and i think that
00:13:03.200
there's a lot of people waking up to what we're talking about of this morally rolling class and
00:13:08.640
the normal americans and who's actually benefiting here and i think that transition for me has
00:13:15.920
forced me to look at the world in a little less of a black and white way patty where did your love
00:13:21.200
nature uh develop when did that happen i am from the midwest and i love being from the midwest
00:13:29.280
and there is so much nature in the midwest and it gets so written off people fly over they drive
00:13:34.560
across it but the midwest is so beautiful the amount of trees forests prairie grassland prairie
00:13:40.480
is this unbelievable ecosystem and my love of nature came from me being a little queer kid
00:13:45.840
hanging out my backyard you know performing musicals jumping off of swing sets
00:13:50.720
choreographing numbers for audiences of no one and for me as a queer kid that was my first safe
00:13:56.720
space nature was my first safe space and now as i went to middle school went to high school
00:14:03.040
encountered homophobia in the outdoors via sports via my own internalized homophobia thinking that
00:14:10.320
i was going to hell or i was not natural i was separate from nature and so for me nature has
00:14:19.280
been a really healing process as my journey with patties unfolded because i've gotten to see that
00:14:26.320
my queerness is nothing but natural there's queerness in every ecosystem on every continent
00:14:33.040
of planet earth i feel really grateful for nature i think that you know there are times where i the
00:14:38.640
times i felt the most disconnected from nature i felt the most disconnected from myself and
00:14:43.360
i think that people in power strategically disconnect us from each other from nature
00:14:50.640
and it's by design if they can keep us disconnected they can keep i like how they've been talking for
00:14:55.920
10 minutes they both just said a lot of nothing like nothing tangible not one fact profits
00:15:01.200
flowing a woman at a drag queen on staring at these screens and disagreeing nature can suffer
0.52
00:15:07.600
and they can abuse nature and if we thought of nature like the relative that it is to us
0.92
00:15:14.160
we would never abuse it and treat it as we do but when we think of nature as a resource and
00:15:20.400
something to extract from take from abuse we separate ourselves from that i think it's a lot
00:15:26.640
easier to abuse something so well you both seem identical to me both theater kids you both love
00:15:32.000
nature all right so hot this segment is called word hunting
00:15:40.400
okay i'm going to shoot a word or a phrase at each of you and you're going to share the first
00:15:44.960
thing that comes to mind all right well okay they're just gonna do some sappy stuff a woman
1.00
00:15:50.720
and a drag queen guys well so what you're gonna see is she's gonna try to do more because women
0.93
00:15:56.880
don't really believe things right so you're gonna kind of see her go against things like you know i
0.87
00:16:02.720
think sometimes we convince ourselves we believe things but it's just imagine being a kid and being
00:16:07.520
like where's mom and she's taking the drag queen or she's doing a candace silence honey she's busy
00:16:14.240
terrorizing a widow i can't with these ladies all right guys like the video subscribe and i'll see
0.96
