00:21:06.920Now, police have not publicly identified the trooper who returned some fire or the bystander.
00:21:20.560But the Idaho statesman detailed the heroics of Jordan Salinas, who's 35 of Kimberly, Idaho, strapped by the shoulder with an FN 5.7 automatic semi-automatic pistol fitted with a suppressor.
00:21:36.280So there was these videos going around showing Jordan returning some fire.
00:21:55.280Now, Jordan is a reported health care worker, and this is honestly who I kind of wanted to focus in on, bro, because this is what we need more of in this country right now.
00:22:05.040um he's a reported healthcare worker uh and the full-time caregiver of his wheelchair bound
00:22:10.080brother so this is jordan here um now jordan trains um he trains and and stuff was coming
00:22:16.240out online there's been some videos now he has a youtube page uh where he kind of shows his
00:22:20.640training videos um and uh and a few of the posts have come up and he's like i've literally trained
00:22:26.440for something like this to happen um and this is like a little collab of some of his videos he's
00:22:32.320put out. Um, really awesome dude. Um, but yeah, he was, uh, he was saying, he said that he was
00:22:52.500able to observe Orient and decide that, okay, this is the guy he said before, uh, being resolute
00:22:57.580to act um saying that the gunman was shocked by the armed response i guess not not thinking
00:23:04.380anybody was gonna fucking back and uh he did man uh haven't seen a whole lot of conspiratorial
00:23:10.480things that came out did he kill him uh he so the the gunman uh died from a self-inflicted gunshot
00:23:15.920wound i do believe he did get hit though a few times yeah um from the uh the off-duty trooper
00:23:21.080in jordan um but he ended up taking his own life you know but i haven't seen the conspiracies or
00:23:27.400anything go crazy so again i'm saying from what we're seeing right now everything looks yeah you
00:23:32.180know um yeah it's a fucking whack job and an armed citizen who stopped it right which it's i guarantee
00:23:40.680you dude i don't even know because i haven't been watching but i would be shocked if this is even
00:23:45.880getting coverage on msm right right well that's the thing because they always like to use these
00:23:50.440situations for the gun debate you know what i'm saying it's like and here's a great example of
00:23:55.700and by the way jordan has no military experience no law enforcement experience he's just no he's
00:24:00.440a responsible citizen citizen yeah who understands the importance of exercising their second amendment
00:24:05.480right correct um and trains for it more importantly you know um but it you know they always try to
00:24:12.440make these you know in this political light to push gun control you know every single time it
00:24:18.160never fails um but it's like had there been gun control in place how many more people would have
00:24:22.940died because of this guy you know what i'm saying well this is what happens when these guys pick
00:24:27.480targets that aren't schools and aren't you know little kids and aren't churches and aren't these
00:24:32.760things and you know it's important for every man in this country and i think women too bro
00:24:39.280like i think especially with this migrant crisis and all these third world
00:24:43.240shit balls coming in from everywhere i think it's very important for women to train i think it's
00:24:50.500mega important because like dude these guys are cowards they are pussies yeah they're not
00:24:56.500attacking me right they're not they might attack men yeah but they are far more likely to attack
00:25:01.920women and children and people that they think aren't going to fight back and there's a lot of
00:25:08.480women out there especially you know that are single that don't have a dude with them and
00:25:13.200they're out there you know kind of running around and living their lives thinking that everything
00:25:18.720is safe and like we're not in that world anymore man like it's different now and i think it's
00:25:24.360important for everybody to carry and train i think it's very very very important and you know um
00:25:32.540there's more and more reasons why every single day you know when they when they import
00:25:38.40020 million military age males that don't have female companionship don't have families who
00:25:47.180were talking about you know they're going to conquer the the country through breeding well
00:25:53.640how do you think they're going to do that they're going to rape people right and i actually think
00:25:58.040that like it's super important that if you're in a i really don't care what the laws are i don't
00:26:02.940care if you're in a carry state or not like you're taking your life into your own hands if you don't
00:26:07.500carry and you don't trade and i think that's um at a bare minimum uh tragically irresponsible
00:26:16.180you know what i mean at this point absolutely yeah at this point absolutely you know i think
00:26:20.620my biggest thing has always been too okay cool you carry you have a gun great you gotta train
00:26:25.640that's better than than not having it better than not having it but like the amount of people that
00:26:30.200are unfamiliar with firearms that carry a firearm
00:26:33.940is most of the people that carry firearms that's right you know most people that carry firearms do
00:26:40.980not train they might have a little pistol in their purse or they might got a little you know
00:26:45.840glock on their belt or something when they go places but knowing how to use it is very important
00:26:51.420and it doesn't do you any good if you don't know how to use it so i really think it's important
00:26:57.060especially for women um to take that seriously because like dude we live in an era where
00:27:03.200the masculine man doesn't exist the way that it used to sure there's still some out there like
00:27:09.660this guy right who's willing to stand up and insert himself into a situation to protect innocent
00:27:16.740people that still exists and there's a lot of those people but you can't count on one of those
00:27:21.620people being around yeah you have to be one of those people that's right and that requires training
00:27:26.660and uh you know this is the perfect example of that no it's just such a crazy situation man but
00:27:34.100like i mean to your point bro i feel like there's gonna be more of this way more more this is the
00:27:39.180beginning of that it's going to be so much look we're starting to see civilians fight back yeah
00:27:43.540okay and like as stupid as this example is it's i see i'm starting to see this everywhere so for
00:27:52.080the last three years we've seen you've seen those dudes that do wheelies on their bicycles
00:27:56.180okay and they ride at people and then they wheelie away right away well now we're seeing people just
00:28:02.420fucking body check them right off their bikes and knock the fuck out of them as they should
00:28:05.940which should have been happening from the beginning but everybody's been scared right
00:28:10.600when everybody stands up and enforces the socially acceptable standard in society through
00:28:19.380the application of tactical violence when required controlled violence that's right
00:28:26.620when that happens order restores okay we're going to see less and less of these little
00:28:35.220fuck faces doing their wheelies because now they're getting their fucking asses beat
00:28:40.240okay and we will see less and less of people just pulling out an ar at an in-and-out burger
00:28:46.760or some random place if they know that the other men in the store are not going to have it and
00:28:53.960they're going to put one in your fucking brain okay that is something that we should all be
00:29:00.100totally dedicated to doing as men of this country in order for order to restore itself
00:29:08.180the reason that we have all this ridiculous crime is because for the last 20 years
00:29:14.700men have kind of like opted out they've looked away you know when things have started going on
00:29:19.820well that's not my problem or in certain cases you know they're going to be punished for it and
00:29:24.280we have to get over that yeah we have to get over that like we have to be willing to protect
00:29:28.840innocent people when these things occur and if every man in this country carried a fucking pistol
00:29:35.440and knew how to use it this shit wouldn't happen it wouldn't happen so yeah dude massive kudos to
00:29:44.180that guy yes and massive respect to that guy i hope somebody bought him a beer well i'm i'm
00:29:49.180grateful for men like that yeah you know that is that's a real man period so i think it's a i think
00:29:58.160it's an awesome story i fucking love to do that i saw my man that that is just crazy work yeah bro
00:30:03.260we're letting the we're letting the inmates run the asylum what it is okay we're letting the
00:30:07.560mentally ill people we have bent over backwards in society for the last number of years to
00:30:14.280appease people who are mentally fucking ill okay this goes into the argument with the trans
00:30:21.740community this goes into the argument with you know um the the whole idea of the first everything
00:30:29.000right this country wasn't based around the first it was based around the best okay and this whole
00:30:36.700idea where all these mentally ill people have started to feel in a protected class like they
00:30:42.380can do whatever they want they can break shit they can scream they can throw tantrums they can
00:30:47.280be violent they could do all they've been allowed to do all these things and they will continue to
00:30:52.460do those things until people step up and do not allow them to do these things that's what will
00:30:58.260reset the order you can't the police will not be able to do it because there's not enough police
00:31:03.060to do it yeah there's no law that's going to be able to fuck no no it didn't work like that so
00:31:08.120like dude you know men men especially have to be willing to step in when things are wrong and
00:31:17.340handle the situation and you should be prepared for that and and to your point it's going to get
00:31:22.340worse and worse because of this third world migrant situation that has been happening here
00:31:28.880and is likely to get worse again because and this gets into a political discussion
00:31:35.860you know people are so disenfranchised with republicans that there's probably going to be
00:31:42.680a big surge of democratic policies come back into play and they're going to open the borders right
00:31:47.620back up the shit's going to get way worse we are dealing with two sides of the political spectrum
00:31:54.560that are both bad and we are dealing with a mentality where
00:32:02.800people like for example i saw this fucking comment um criticizing me on the internet
00:32:13.720and it was on that clip where i said i'm not right i'm not left i'm not you know the one
00:32:19.280that goes viral every time it fucking hits the internet and some dude wrote yeah well this guy
00:32:24.420was a mega chud blah blah blah first of all motherfucker i was never fucking mega ever and
00:32:30.320yes i did vote for trump three times the reason i voted for trump three times was not because i
00:32:35.760believed everything that trump was doing it's because i recognized the the pain and the bad
00:32:41.600things that were happening on the other side and we have this situation in our country where
00:32:46.800you're not allowed to change your mind
00:40:14.100So you don't have an answer to the question,
00:40:16.240because when you have a actual answer to the question it doesn't you don't answer it with
00:40:22.460ask it's right it's like a library-esque type of thing like these people live in a delusional
00:40:27.880state of reality this is going to fail miserably and i can't wait to watch it it's not even
00:40:34.480sustainable dude bro because they can't answer the question how do you keep people from going
00:40:42.440in the store and taking shit and then go putting it on fucking facebook marketplace to sell you
00:40:46.800how do you keep people from going in the store taking shit and then going on the corner and
00:40:53.780reselling it you won't arrest people for violent crime you're going to arrest people for selling
00:40:57.860fucking powder milk that's right okay so like these people don't know what the fuck they're doing
00:41:02.240and again this is just pandering to people that don't understand the way things actually work
00:41:09.360Okay. Groceries and food and canned goods and all of the things that you buy in the store, those come from somewhere. Okay. And they don't come from the government. They come from private citizens who own businesses, AKA capitalism that produce goods and services to be sold to serve a need in exchange for some sort of money.
00:41:33.020OK, when you pull an incentive out of this concept of, you know, there is a profit to be made, what incentive do the manufacturers have to even do business with these stores?
00:41:49.020okay and on top of that we're talking about operating an actual business efficiently
00:41:58.400grocery business especially has to be operated massively efficient because of the nature of food
00:42:06.520expiring yep shelf life okay so when you look at the dmv or the courthouse or anything in your city
00:42:13.740where you've ever dealt with the government would you say that it runs efficiently the answer would
00:42:18.200be no for every single one of you in fact you would say i hate going there so much because of
00:42:24.740how inefficient it runs now now take that system and apply it to this do you think that they're
00:42:31.120going to be able to maintain for very little incentive goods and services that are consumable
00:42:36.760and have expiration for very long it's not going to happen dude and it's never happened this is why
00:42:43.620you see bread lines in uh soviet russia okay when when this all starts as a fucking good idea free
00:42:53.400food free food but there has to be incentive along the way for that food to be produced otherwise
00:42:58.780people don't fucking produce it that's right okay and then you get a system where the government
00:43:03.300starts to farm and the government start and they run it all efficiently the food disappears and
00:43:07.660people fucking starve and every communist country that's ever existed in the history of earth knows
00:43:12.820this you ask anybody that came from a communist country when it got really bad and when the
00:43:17.920communism got overthrown is when people got hungry and the reason they got hungry was because the
00:43:21.680government couldn't control the food supply and this is the beginning of that and hope our best
00:43:26.460hope here is you know that it fails so miserably that it becomes an example of what not to do but
00:43:36.740they're not going to put it out there if it fails yeah they're not going to show everybody if it
00:43:40.580fails and like i said when mandami got elected they're probably going to government subsidize
00:43:45.640the programs to make them look successful so they can win this across the country yeah and they're
00:43:51.320going to have to force the suppliers to fucking get on board too bro because i know like imagine
00:43:56.820being another an actual grocery store up in new york city having to compete with your state-run
00:44:01.380grocery store who you know is giving shit listen free if i can they're not even they're not even
00:44:06.980accounting for shoplifting and shrinkage and fucking the the takeovers where people run in
00:44:14.500and just take shit like this is going to be a shit show it's going to be a shit show and
00:44:20.760you know i was i was talking to one of my buddies from new york who happens to be leaving he's a
00:44:27.880he's a very successful guy and i didn't know this but amongst native new yorkers mandami like like
00:44:36.620only got like 10 of the vote and the people who voted for him were not native new yorkers they
00:44:42.720were imports and immigrants and all kinds of fucking shit and like it's sad dude it's sad
00:44:50.640yeah you know and you get people to defend it right like people because they want free shit
00:44:55.600right who doesn't it's like when obama came out with the free cell phone the reason obama got
00:45:00.640elected is because he promised free cell phones to everybody shit phones by the way too well yeah
00:45:06.360of course you know um and as if the the i mean let's be real dude do we really have a problem
00:45:13.820with our welfare system and food anyway i think the the problem isn't that fucking people can't
00:45:20.960eat or can't get food i mean look at the most of the people that are on it they're fat they're
00:45:24.920fucking obese you know we covered this on the show they're they're taking ebt and and uh you know
00:45:31.660all of these benefits and they're going in and living better than the tax paying citizen who's
00:45:36.440paying for that right okay so this isn't even really a problem that has to be solved the problem
00:45:42.180is how do we get people to not take advantage of the system and and what this is this is optics
00:45:47.560this is hey look what we did look how much better we can do it look it's this is fair capitalism
00:45:53.660it's not this isn't fucking this will ruin the country dude and and i don't know i don't know
00:46:00.580if the people in this country as a whole are smart enough to recognize it yeah i don't know that
00:46:08.760because how the fuck does this guy get elected in the first place you know what i mean he gets
00:46:13.280elected off of a group and an age demographic that grew up from you know being a little kid
00:46:22.800all the way up being taught that capitalism was bad you know it's i'm a man yeah exactly dude
00:46:28.480and we have a big problem with it right now yeah well i mean and the other stress test that you
00:46:32.560know they're not even accounted for is you know the influx of these migrants who don't have those
00:46:36.720ids like how is that gonna work um because there's a shit ton of them in new york city yeah
00:46:42.040um and they're not they're not even addressing that now on the migrant situation um because
00:46:47.040there's something interesting we covered this last cti if this is too too aggressive of a move
00:46:53.660for mandami to make it's a it's a mistake okay when you put yourself in his position and his
00:46:58.960position is very clearly my job is to make communism palatable for the rest of the country
00:47:05.280that's right this is a mistake okay on his part because when you talk to people who like mandami
00:47:13.880they will say things like well they filled all the potholes okay all he had to do was come in
00:47:19.800and clean up the trash and fill the potholes and shut the fuck up just shut up that's all okay and
00:47:26.980then people will say god dude communism looks great look how good our city gets and then it
00:47:30.920will spread okay but that this this is a this is a bad chess move on their behalf yeah because this
00:47:37.020is aggressive it's too too quick yes it's not going to work because it's never worked yeah
00:47:41.540it's never worked all right and you know i don't know yeah yeah now on the migrant thing this is
00:47:51.640something we covered last uh last show there's been some development so i wanted to kind of
00:47:55.320touch on this too um but you know we covered the the whole uh sweta uh invasion yeah that happened
00:48:03.260it's kind of weird and there's some things that have come out uh since then since we've covered
00:48:08.000that last Thursday, um, about that situation. Um, so Morocco comes out and they're blaming
00:48:13.760Sway to border surge on an exploitation of digital platforms, um, and misleading information,
00:48:20.180um, is what they're blaming it on. Um, cause these people are coming via Morocco.
00:48:26.520Um, and they're saying that the last week's massive surge of migrants into the Spanish
00:48:31.240enclave of Swayta on various factors, including malicious exploitation of digital platforms,
00:48:37.140whatever the fuck that means um in the spread of misleading information most of the migrants were
00:48:42.920sent back home by spanish officials after the sudden and deadly border rush a moroccan official
00:48:48.720said late sunday that the surge of thousands of migrants last week into suede to a small spanish
00:48:54.000city on morocco's mediterranean coast was not the result of circumstantial or spontaneous factors
00:49:01.120now that i do believe and that i do agree with because how do you get uh an estimated almost 50
00:49:09.26050 000 people right to to do something like that right like the the amount of planning the amount
00:49:17.160of logistics that has to go into doing something like that like how does that work right well we
00:49:22.840got to go to our boy thomas massey because he just released some stuff that i thought was pretty
00:49:26.900incredible um and he released uh he just tweeted this out he said two weeks before migrants from
00:49:32.940morocco invaded sweta the gop passed a bill with 40 million dollars for morocco and a committee
00:49:42.080report advising the spanish administered cities of sweta and melilla are located in moroccan
00:49:48.280territory and remain the subject of morocco's long-standing claim right um and that's literally
00:49:54.960in the bill passage right now a lot of people this probably will fly over their head um but this is
00:50:01.660not a new thing all right this is not new not not for america at least because uh even back going
00:50:07.200back december 2020 um i believe president trump uh doubled down on the fact that uh sweta and
00:50:15.580melilla are moroccan territory and they belong to morocco and basically spain should kind of just
00:50:20.980give it up um but what exactly is he saying here and somebody kind of said the quiet part out loud
00:50:26.940uh translation cia now actively subverting moroccan regime government with congressional
00:50:34.200approval to which thomas massey said bullseye right and so that 40 million dollars got put in
00:50:42.420two weeks ago and then you have this uh orchestrated invasion of almost 50 000 people
00:50:49.280to stress test this again logistically how does that work how do they get there how much of that
00:50:55.68040 million dollars of taxpayer dollars by the way you think uh helped that situation i'd say a shit
00:51:01.980ton of it yeah for sure um and it's not even just not even not even just the america's involved
00:51:07.400because there's been another angle that has been coming out that this is also something that israel
01:01:32.680it's coming back it's coming back now let's dive i mean there's a market for it dude
01:01:42.480well i mean what was so like again i did not have one so what what was so unique about it well first
01:01:47.900of all it wasn't filled with ads okay okay it wasn't everything was a fucking ad okay it was
01:01:53.420a page you had a page and it was a profile home page and then you were connected to other people
01:01:59.420and they were connected to you and you would post the things that you like on your page and people
01:02:04.360would see it and interact with it and then if you wanted to go to their page you could go to their
01:02:07.780page and see their shit but it wasn't filled with ads it wasn't filled with bullshit it wasn't there
01:02:13.520was no bots and all this other shit and uh you know there's a market for that there's a market
01:02:19.000for that there's a market for creating a social media platform around real people that share an
01:02:25.260interest by the way i've created one uh if you go to operatorstandard.com and you go to the
01:02:30.940community um there are no bots there are all these people that want to win and be better and
01:02:35.660share beliefs about success and um you know there's that's not the main product but that's
01:02:41.040that's an accessory to it but the point is people are spending a lot of time in the community because
01:02:46.240there is no ads and they are real people and there is no bots and they're actually having real
01:02:49.700conversations and that's what people crave yeah okay social media has become this fake shit
01:02:55.640like we all know what it's become yeah yeah you know we don't even know what's real and fake
01:03:04.280anymore like we don't even know what like we watch videos on the internet and half of them are ai
01:03:10.060we don't even know it's more than half of them yeah you don't even know like if people like we
01:03:14.760see political videos we don't even know if they're ai or what we don't know we don't know what the
01:03:18.340fuck's going on and that's that's by it's intentional so anyway what do they do on yeah
01:03:23.660so myspace could soon make a comeback after nearly two decades on the decline as its owners seek a
01:03:29.180fresh start to compete with uh the current social media giants the owners of the once popular social
01:03:34.400media platform brothers tim and chris vanderhook announced plans to relaunch myspace with the new
01:03:40.520vision the brothers said that they want to create a platform that feels different from current
01:03:45.120social media platforms, which many users complain are too focused on algorithms and are designed
01:03:49.660to encourage endless scrolling. The Vanderhooks said in a new documentary, MySpace, that they,
01:03:56.300quote, built an entirely new MySpace, but did not work out. We really tried to modernize it,
01:04:01.600but it was a different company at that point. It wasn't the same MySpace, Tim explained in
01:04:06.080the documentary. Chris added, by that time, they had been through four other sets of management
01:04:11.620and CEOs. We were going to be the fifth ones. And I think that there were a lot of people
01:04:18.620who were really just done. The two now plan to relaunch the platform at some point,
01:04:24.540but the target date has not been set. And if that one doesn't work, we'll do it again, Tim said.
01:04:29.860Tom Anderson, MySpace co-founder and everyone's automatic first friend,
01:04:35.360sold the company in 2005 and is not expected to be involved with the Vanderhook's upcoming
01:04:39.440initiative um and apparently he still has his myspace profile still up on there which i thought
01:04:46.320that was kind of cool uh but we didn't have this dude i i had i had bebo you know you familiar with
01:04:51.520bebo no so i had bebo it was it was a similar thing um uh i'm assuming uh but i actually went
01:04:58.940and and went to bebo and i looked at this and i thought you would enjoy uh this so this is a
01:05:03.780message from michael a letter from michael uh that bebo was coming to an end right and very
01:05:08.740very much of the same things that you were just describing as kind of what he what he went into
01:05:14.640here saying you know how he launched it 21 years ago it was a space with skins and whiteboards and
01:05:20.300quizzes and you had a top 16 on your home page they tried to bring Bebo back and relaunch it
01:05:29.660as it was right and it was okay but didn't really work out right so he's focused on bringing in a
01:05:36.700new one. Uh, he says, so we're not ending the idea. The idea is the only thing we've ever really
01:05:41.760worked on. It's new home is called blue bill messaging and social fused into one year group
01:05:46.160chats, your photos, your people in the same room, no feed of strangers, nothing to perform for.
01:05:52.240It's smaller and warmer. And it's the thing I've been trying to build up, uh, build since 2005.
01:05:58.300Um, and so, you know, the, the whole, the space, I guess, of social is just completely changing
01:06:04.600and people really are starting to get over it um what what the human need i guess to connect has
01:06:12.360always been like we want to connect with people but you've mentioned before how it's going to be
01:06:17.280moving back to in person and real life connections right how how quickly can we see this happening
01:06:22.680how like how we're already seeing yeah you know more people are are deleting uh instagram than
01:06:30.780have ever deleted it before it's one of the highest most deleted apps um you know the
01:06:38.060one of the most popular reels that we see online on a consistent basis are these reels of like
01:06:47.700it's it'll say like you wake up at christmas time in 1997 yeah right yeah or you're a friday night
01:06:55.420on 1997 and these are the reels that are getting hundreds of millions of views
01:07:00.520and the reason those reels are getting hundreds of millions of views and they're getting them
01:07:06.980from people who weren't even born then right is because people are realizing what we've lost
01:07:13.580in the pursuit of this digital connectivity that has been pressed on us so hard so the thing that's
01:07:23.960going to be difficult to overcome because people are craving in person and we're seeing companies
01:07:30.680start to move towards community as well all right we've always been a community first company but
01:07:37.080we're seeing other companies try to follow that which from an entrepreneurial standpoint is really
01:07:44.200good for people who operated pre-internet because those fundamental skill sets that you needed
01:07:50.560before social media now are going to be probably more important than any other skill set to have
01:07:55.960and so a lot of people who built their brands between uh you know let's say 2014 and you know
01:08:04.320let's say now they've only really known how to operate in the digital space yeah so a lot of
01:08:11.820companies are going to struggle to make that transition back to community and the companies
01:08:16.320that do it effectively are going to really dominate um that doesn't mean social media
01:08:21.380won't be relevant that doesn't mean that it's not important that doesn't mean that you won't
01:08:24.940drive business off of it but if you don't have the community aspect you're going to have a hard
01:08:31.240time with staying power because now everything's switching right like like right now uh you know
01:08:38.600tiktok shop is a huge thing right but what happens when tiktok shop changes its deal or it changes
01:08:44.280or something else like a lot of these companies are becoming one trick ponies right they know how
01:08:49.240to do one thing and they do that thing very well and then they mistake themselves in thinking
01:08:54.000they're really good operators okay but i've been in business long enough to know that things always
01:08:59.140change and what's working for you know now or 10 years ago that changed to something else and that
01:09:06.780changed something else and one of the most valuable probably the most valuable skill set
01:09:13.040as an operator right now in business is the ability to adapt quickly um and a lot of people
01:09:20.600are planted into this digital thing and they're going to have a hard time with the other parts
01:09:24.860of it but to answer your question how fast do i think it's going to happen i think it's already
01:09:30.580happening dude i don't think we're going to see like this there's not going to be an announcement
01:09:34.180so hey by the way everything's over here that's not what's going to happen you know people are
01:09:38.040going to be on less people are going to scroll less i mean we're seeing the introduction of
01:09:42.560you know all kinds of devices that limit people's social media consumption because they do realize
01:09:47.800that it's addictive um the the the need for community and contribution to a community is
01:09:55.440those are human needs those aren't things that can be replaced and when we see all of these videos
01:10:02.360going viral mega viral about the way things used to be that's a really strong indicator of what
01:10:08.400people are actually craving and where they find that is where they're going to go whether that
01:10:15.660be in their restaurant whether that be in their uh community whether that be the companies they
01:10:20.860shop with wherever they find that sense of community and belonging is where it's going to
01:10:25.920migrate to uh because dude quite honestly you know while i do enjoy instagram and and tiktok
01:10:34.020because i can see funny videos and you know i can i can very easily look at things i want to look at
01:10:39.600like if i want to look at certain cars i can go in the search bar and fucking type in bugatti and
01:10:44.260fucking see every post with the bugatti on it right it's it's it's kind of evolved into a search
01:10:49.420engine of interest instead of a community community connectivity and the original idea of
01:10:56.860of social media was community connectivity that's why it worked and then meta got so big and
01:11:03.500instagram got so big that it evolved the whole social media game and nobody else was able to
01:11:10.020pick up that torch and continue to to keep that one part that really got everybody invested in it
01:11:15.480so it's going to be interesting to see how it plays out because met is so big and they're so
01:11:19.900powerful and they have so much money um even if someone were to build an amazing community
01:11:25.540you know app it's likely that met is going to come in and try to overpay for it and when you
01:11:30.680have someone who comes from nothing and has built something that's worth 10 20 30 billion dollars
01:11:36.340they're probably going to sell it so that's a problem that you know we face you know when
01:11:42.840they've gotten so big and so powerful that they can buy all the competitors up. Now we run into
01:11:48.120a true monopoly situation where even if something does get traction, it's going to be hard to really
01:11:54.220sustain it because, I mean, could you blame someone for selling something that they started
01:12:00.740off with zero and they get offered billions of dollars? I don't think any of us could blame
01:12:05.060somebody for that um so it's going to be interesting dude but i know this i know that
01:12:12.440regardless of how big companies get the free market always dictates success and for meta
01:12:21.760to continue to be dominant they are going to have to pivot away from the bot networks from
01:12:29.900the ai they are going to have to work to restore legitimacy to their platform in a way that people
01:12:37.540can trust because once you lose the trust and you don't know what's real or what's not there's no
01:12:42.780point in doing it look how many people rarely post anymore that two years ago three years ago
01:12:47.800five years ago we're posting all the time okay the reason they don't is because they realize like
01:12:54.220how fake and gay it's really become right so it still has its uses that's not what i'm saying you
01:13:00.840still should build a personal brand absolutely but we we have to understand where this is going
01:13:07.240not just where it is today and you know there's going to be companies that come along and they
01:13:13.080create uh a platform where people enjoy how it operates because it connects people but
01:13:19.920the the the real moat that has to be overcome there is that once that gets traction is it just
01:13:27.380going to get gobbled up by the big the big dogs you know so i don't know dude like if i was zuck
01:13:32.560man and he's a smart fucking dude bro like he's not like people think people think that
01:13:39.560i mean they have all kinds of opinions of the guy the guy's very fucking smart
01:13:43.980But if I were Zuck, I would be looking really hard at how to maintain or rebuild the trust in the apps, the social apps, because with the emergence of AI and then the understanding that most of the traffic on the Internet has become bot driven, the trust is diluted and it's not it's not going to people aren't going to continue to use it.
01:14:12.340and we won't know that's happening because they just have bot profiles that post right so it's
01:14:18.260like it's not like you're going to see the whole thing drop off yeah right so it's just i don't
01:14:25.400know man it's it's going to be interesting i don't know exactly what's going to happen but
01:14:30.900i know this i know that more people are moving to rural america than have moved to rural america
01:14:38.780in years and it's not because they hate the city it's not because there's crime in this there's
01:14:45.300always been crime in the city it's because they have a yearning and a longing for a regular life
01:14:51.620and they assume that they're going to get that more in rural america which maybe they do maybe
01:14:58.180they don't because if you continue to spend all your time on the internet nothing changes right
01:15:02.060right so um you know there's going to be there's a lot of people who have moved out to rural places
01:15:07.760and they figured out like oh this is actually pretty fucking hard work to do but like you know
01:15:12.920uh some do it for like the trend of it yeah right but but what i'm saying is is like those are
01:15:17.720indicators of where culture is right you know where are people moving they're moving to tennessee
01:15:23.960why are they moving to tennessee it feels like normal right it's because when they look at
01:15:28.780tennessee on the internet it looks like normal america okay and people are craving that right
01:15:35.940now. And the companies that understand that and capitalize on it are going to win. And it doesn't
01:15:42.840matter what business you're in. It doesn't matter if you could capitalize on where the culture is
01:15:46.980going and what people crave, you're going to do well. If you ignore it, you're not going to do
01:15:52.740well. And so it's an interesting time. I think there's lots of opportunity to be creative.
01:15:58.400and i don't see that trend reversing itself like i i don't like going back to the art
01:16:05.640that we had in the beginning of the show like
01:16:09.080what would it take for that trend of wanting to go back in time to a better time
01:16:19.480what would it take for that to reverse to where people want to move forward in the future
01:16:25.960like the way like there's never been a time in history where people have craved to go backwards
01:16:34.100yeah more than now yeah and what's that tell you about the direction we're going in the future it
01:16:39.360tells you that we're not going the direction that people actually want we're being forced into that
01:16:44.280by people who have power and means it's not genuine no it's not what we want people don't
01:16:49.760want it and you know it sucks dude um because this country that that we see today is not
01:16:59.020the country it's not what i grew up in and uh i feel really bad for people who never got to
01:17:05.700experience life before all this technology and all this accessibility like the internet uh social
01:17:14.580media um you know even cell phones like you're supposed to have a life dude and because the
01:17:24.660technology is the way it is and because greed drives the the assimilation of the that technology
01:17:31.080we now live in an era where people really have a hard time living a life that's that's any which
01:17:38.900way normal and then we're like confused as to why people are depressed or why they don't feel good
01:17:44.340or why they have anxiety all the time or why they can't sleep yeah bro it's because you're not
01:17:49.440operate like your parents and their parents like when they went home from work dude they went
01:17:54.060fucking home you know what i'm saying like and then you have like like on on q a f we always
01:17:59.700answer this question probably once a show someone asks this question you know how do i find balance
01:18:05.220well unfortunately in today's era it's very hard to have balance and the only way to have it is to
01:18:13.440execute effectively and then basically shut everything down and pick it up the next day
01:18:20.260on your own right um that's hard to do it is hard to do especially when you're competitive
01:18:25.440that's right but that's also why it takes discipline to be effective at the time when
01:18:29.380you decide to work and decide what the win is and once the win is accomplished you can move on to
01:18:34.420the next day and um you know it's it's an interesting time dude and um the spirit of
01:18:43.180of cultural revolution is definitely in the air um which i think is good you know i think people
01:18:52.140are are finding their way back to like reality uh but unfortunately i think there's going to have
01:18:58.280to be drastic action for that reality to ever take place and i don't think we're there yet
01:19:03.060because people aren't hurting enough yet and you know i know there's people listening they're like
01:19:07.560what do you mean i'm hurting i'm not talking about that kind of hurt bro i'm talking about
01:19:10.320not being able to find your fucking food and um we're a long ways off from that i mean
01:19:15.740the easiest time to fight it would be now but unfortunately you know people seem to not take
01:19:21.560interest in things until like it's too late it's a necessity yeah and uh i don't know i don't know
01:19:28.140what's going to happen dude i know that the best thing that anybody could do the best thing that
01:19:36.000anybody could do as an individual is to realize that their life matters and that their example
01:19:43.800and how they live their life sets the culture for how the rest of the culture lives their life
01:19:49.960and when we're personally excellent individuals and we take care of our bodies we take care of
01:19:56.260our minds we put good things in we assume good information we work hard we we create success
01:20:03.020we do not depend on the government for anything we don't trust the government with anything
01:20:09.280that creates a culture of of resistance that is hard to manipulate and control and
01:20:17.880that's why we say personal excellence is the ultimate rebellion but
01:20:22.840it comes from the individual right like you have to at some point step into that and realize that
01:20:31.580you are the leader like you are the one you've been waiting for you are the person that you've
01:20:38.660been waiting to come along you just haven't become that because it hasn't occurred to you
01:20:42.380you faced you know dozens of years of propaganda to tell you that your voice doesn't matter
01:20:48.200you don't matter your life doesn't matter when in reality they wouldn't be spending trillions of
01:20:53.440dollars of propaganda to convince you of that if that were the truth that should indicate to you
01:20:58.620what the truth actually is and what they're actually afraid of they're actually afraid of
01:21:03.180the the people the able-bodied citizens of this country figuring out that they have the power
01:21:09.600which we do have always had it yeah but we can't be fat and consume their bullshit we can't be
01:21:17.960sick and consume their medicine we can't be lazy and consume their their doom scrolling and data
01:21:24.460we have to become the antithesis of what they're trying to create and stop feeding their machine
01:21:30.700that's what that's what has to happen because when we stop feeding the machine their machine
01:21:35.540doesn't work so you know and and so many people are around like looking around for like how do
01:21:42.360i fix this when they really should be looking in the mirror right like how are you are you are you
01:21:47.160contributing to their machine or are you taking away are you fit or are you fat are you educating
01:21:53.640yourself or are you believing everything they say are you healthy are you consuming all their shit
01:21:58.200are you actually spending time with your family or are you sitting down consuming fucking bullshit
01:22:03.920all day like where where do you fit on the scale as an individual and you need to assess that and
01:22:09.560evaluate that and work to become the antithesis of what they're trying to create which is a society
01:22:14.400of dependent weak unhealthy uh lazy pussies that feed all their interests and what they're trying
01:22:24.120to do it just takes what we get yeah dude and that's that we're in control of that yeah it's
01:22:29.740real man so yeah guys let's know what you guys think down in the comments that being said let's
