Stay Free - Russel Brand - Oh SH*T…Has The Covid Pandemic Started Again In Australia?! - Stay Free #246

00:00:00.000 you do

00:00:12.000 do do

00:00:32.000 do do

00:01:14.000 do In this video, you're going to see the future.

00:01:34.000 Hello there, you awakening wonders, you great souls, you fire walkers.

00:01:39.000 While the rest of the world is trying to close down free speech, we are advocating for even more of it and granting it even to other species, like the hound.

00:01:49.000 I will not free the nipple, 709er. 1.00

00:01:52.000 I will not. 0.85

00:01:53.000 The nipple will remain in its own private bellmarsh. 0.91

00:01:57.000 Like a Julian Assange.

00:01:58.000 There will be no nippy leaks.

00:02:00.000 It will remain ensnared and in jail.

00:02:03.000 And Carl Reino in the Rumble chat.

00:02:05.000 Why is Russell Late?

00:02:06.000 He's still talking to his MI6 handlers.

00:02:08.000 After what I've been through, you still want controlled opposition?

00:02:12.000 Baby, they're trying to control me and it ain't working.

00:02:15.000 We are going strong.

00:02:16.000 Later we're going to be talking about how Tucker and Glenn Greenwald have been talking about censorship from the right and how the left now are demanding free speech.

00:02:26.000 It's been another old switcheroo.

00:02:28.000 As these conflicts escalate, as the Omnicrisis devours more people, as division is created and fracture is cleaved, where once there was an emergent new union, you're seeing people switching sides.

00:02:41.000 Rito says, yeah, my dog is pretty cute.

00:02:43.000 If you want to join us in the Rumble Chat, join us in the Rumble Chat.

00:02:46.000 If you're watching us on YouTube, you'll have to join us eventually, because the day will come where YouTube just simply will not allow free speech.

00:02:52.000 That day ain't here yet, and if you're one of our Awakened Wonders watching there, We love you.

00:02:56.000 If you want to support our content, press the red button, become an Awake and Wonder like MaximumTitus444, MyDogIsCuter, he's saying, Primal Collins talking about how will the Aussies deal with the new mask mandates. 0.62

00:03:06.000 We're covering that in a minute, but we will not be able to cover that on YouTube because Australian news media They took a swerve because you know how heavy they got during the pandemic times.

00:03:16.000 Well, the news media and the medical establishment ain't taking no more of it.

00:03:21.000 Remember, download the Rumble app if you ain't got it yet because then you'll get proper notifications and you'll be here from the start.

00:03:29.000 I think it's you that's late.

00:03:30.000 I think it's you that's late.

00:03:31.000 KRG0516, press this for the nips.

00:03:35.000 You are getting no nips. 1.00

00:03:36.000 You've had your nips. 0.75

00:03:37.000 You've had your last look at these because we I'm staying poised and dignified on Rumble and I'll show you now.

00:03:43.000 Rumble's not what it's purported to have been.

00:03:46.000 You won't believe how many Democrats and Independents are on this site.

00:03:48.000 Chris Pavlosky posted about it earlier today.

00:03:53.000 We'll cover it in a minute.

00:03:55.000 But Congress is falling apart.

00:03:58.000 It's one thing to see Trump riling them up at the UFC.

00:04:03.000 But to hear talk of actual fisticuffs in Congress, or is it the Senate?

00:04:08.000 You'll love this.

00:04:09.000 You'll love this.

00:04:09.000 It's the Senate.

00:04:10.000 This is... I'm into this.

00:04:11.000 Pretends like he's self-made. 1.00

00:04:13.000 What a clown. 1.00

00:04:15.000 Fraud. 1.00

00:04:16.000 Always has been.

00:04:18.000 Always will be.

00:04:20.000 Quit the tough guy act and these Senate hearings.

00:04:23.000 You know where to find me.

00:04:24.000 Any place, any time, cowboy.

00:04:29.000 Sir, this is a time, this is a place.

00:04:31.000 You want to run your mouth.

00:04:32.000 We can be two consenting adults.

00:04:33.000 We can finish it here.

00:04:35.000 Consenting adults as well.

00:04:36.000 That's what you say before a fight.

00:04:38.000 So you can't just have a fight, can you, in the Senate?

00:04:40.000 But this dude, Mullen, he's ready to go.

00:04:43.000 Check it.

00:04:43.000 OK, that's fine.

00:04:44.000 You want to do it now?

00:04:44.000 Perfect.

00:04:45.000 I'd love to do it right now. 0.98

00:04:46.000 Well, stand your butt up then. 0.99

00:04:47.000 You stand your butt up. 0.99

00:04:48.000 Oh, hold on. 0.99

00:04:49.000 Oh, stop it.

00:04:50.000 Mullin v O'Brien!

00:04:52.000 Who's the smart man?

00:04:53.000 I'm saying Mullin.

00:04:54.000 I'll tell you why Mullin.

00:04:55.000 Watch Mullin with a ring.

00:04:56.000 This ain't his first rodeo.

00:04:58.000 He's been through this before.

00:04:59.000 O'Brien, he's staying down.

00:05:01.000 O'Brien, you stay down!

00:05:06.000 No, no, you're a United States Senator.

00:05:08.000 Activate.

00:05:10.000 Sit down, please.

00:05:10.000 Can I respond?

00:05:12.000 Hold it! 0.98

00:05:13.000 That's enough of that! 0.90

00:05:14.000 You better, you better stop that!

00:05:16.000 Not on my Senate!

00:05:17.000 Oh no, you don't!

00:05:19.000 I've changed my positions on wars!

00:05:21.000 I've changed my position on the financial industry!

00:05:24.000 But I will not sanction this fight!

00:05:26.000 Bernie's committed, baby.

00:05:28.000 Hold it! 0.98

00:05:30.000 If we can't, no, I have the money.

00:05:32.000 I'm sorry.

00:05:32.000 This is what he said.

00:05:33.000 Hold it.

00:05:33.000 You'll have your time.

00:05:34.000 Okay.

00:05:35.000 Can I respond?

00:05:36.000 Oh, no, you can't.

00:05:38.000 Had I responded, this would have been offered out.

00:05:40.000 Proper offer for a row.

00:05:43.000 Amazing.

00:05:44.000 Amazing.

00:05:45.000 Like, do you see that just below the surface of the obfuscating language, the diplomacy, the idea... Right, think about this, January 6th.

00:05:55.000 How dare they!

00:05:56.000 How dare they storm the Capitol!

00:05:59.000 That is where we have our bare-knuckle fights! 0.99

00:06:02.000 That's where we run our corruption from!

00:06:04.000 That's where I get my money from Pfizer!

00:06:07.000 The idea that you would come in there with no zip ties!

00:06:10.000 Nancy Pelosi's in there right now, not telling her husband which stocks and shares to invest in, I'll tell you that. 0.84

00:06:16.000 The idea that there's any sanctity, it's a veneer, it's a performance, it's disintegrating and apparently it's pretty common because Tim Burchett is also saying that, I think it was Kevin McCarthy, elbowed him in the ribs.

00:06:28.000 It's like something from Huckleberry Finn.

00:06:30.000 It's like Mark Twain violence.

00:06:32.000 He came up to me, he tricked me into painting the fence and he elbowed me in my back ribs.

00:06:36.000 Explain to us what happened with you and Kevin McCarthy.

00:06:39.000 Well, I was doing an interview with Claudia from NPR.

00:06:44.000 A lovely lady, and she was asking me a question, and at that time I... A lovely lady, I was with Aunt May.

00:06:50.000 I got elbowed in the back, and it kind of caught me off guard, because it was a clean shot to the kidneys, and I... I was embarrassed!

00:06:57.000 That was a clean shot to the kidneys! 0.96

00:06:58.000 I'm pretty good, usually I can protect my kidneys, I can wind around with a sidewinder, and I would have been there, and the Adam's apple!

00:07:05.000 Turned back, and there was Kevin, and um...

00:07:09.000 And I, for a minute, I was kind of, what the heck?

00:07:11.000 Kevin, that little sneak, you snooping around a bank?

00:07:14.000 Just happened and then I, um, you know, I chased after him, of course.

00:07:18.000 Of course I did.

00:07:19.000 I pursued him over land on foot. 0.95

00:07:22.000 As I've stated many times, he's a, he's a bully with $17 million in a security detail. 0.88

00:07:27.000 You know, he's the type of guy that When you're a kid, would throw a rock over the fence and run home and hide behind his mama's skirt. 0.94

00:07:33.000 He's behind his mama's skirt right now, threw a rock over the wall. 0.61

00:07:36.000 Why is this mad Wonder Years violence?

00:07:40.000 You know, he, he, uh... The Speaker of the House doesn't have third most...

00:07:46.000 Third most important political figure.

00:07:47.000 Of course, many of you are saying in the chat over on Rumble, it's because it's a charade, it's because it's a performance and this is merely the revelation of the ulterior reality.

00:07:57.000 An ulterior reality we're protected from seeing.

00:07:59.000 From behind, that kind of stuff.

00:08:02.000 That's not the way we handle things in East Tennessee.

00:08:04.000 If we have a problem with somebody, I'm going to look them in the eye and talk to them.

00:08:07.000 Okay, so he was going to look them in the eye and talk to them in East Tennessee.

00:08:10.000 That's what I do.

00:08:12.000 Extraordinary.

00:08:13.000 Amazing.

00:08:13.000 In our country, the UK, you've heard of it, right?

00:08:16.000 When we're not happy with our Prime Minister, that's our President, And we never are, because they're always some sort of joke. 0.94

00:08:23.000 This one, Rishi Sunak, he's crazy.

00:08:25.000 He's only been doing it about two weeks. 0.79

00:08:27.000 He's ruined it already.

00:08:29.000 He's had to have six, like, when they're displeased, his colleagues, the other members of his party, they write letters of no confidence.

00:08:36.000 He's had six letters of, like, no confidence.

00:08:38.000 We have no confidence in you!

00:08:40.000 None whatsoever!

00:08:43.000 Please buck your ideas up!

00:08:45.000 Not elbows in the ribs or a smack in the mouth.

00:08:48.000 He's had six letters of no confidence but he has also had a fruit basket from Moderna thanking him for his wonderful time when he funded Moderna through his hedge fund and through the many Moderna employees that have come via the government.

00:08:59.000 There's two or three now.

00:09:00.000 Curious really.

00:09:01.000 Used to work for the government, now work at Moderna.

00:09:04.000 Extraordinary how that sort of stuff keeps happening and without independent media You wouldn't know nothing about it.

00:09:09.000 I wouldn't know nothing about it without other brave, bold voices in independent media from across the spectrum, the daddy of them all, our Joe Rogan.

00:09:17.000 But, you know, whether you like him or not, Jimmy Dore, Dave Rubin, Ben Shapiro, from across the whole spectrum.

00:09:25.000 You might disagree with some of these people, but what we want, Tucker, Tucker, World King.

00:09:30.000 You know, what you want are voices that will openly discuss this stuff, and where they're going to increasingly be doing it is on Rumble.

00:09:37.000 Look at this surprising information.

00:09:38.000 Pavlovsky, the head of Rumble, he said, look, they've broke down.

00:09:42.000 We're using, you know, I guess it's a computer company.

00:09:45.000 They've got the data.

00:09:47.000 21% of people using Rumble are Republicans.

00:09:49.000 35% Democrat.

00:09:50.000 That can't be right, can it? 28% Independent.

00:09:53.000 I'm guessing you lot are independent, right?

00:09:55.000 We're sick of the system.

00:09:57.000 No affiliation, 12%.

00:09:58.000 Yep, that's me.

00:09:59.000 I'm in that category.

00:10:00.000 So there you go.

00:10:02.000 It's surprising, isn't it?

00:10:03.000 That rumble breaks down in that kind of way.

00:10:06.000 And a lot of people are trying to censor free speech, and particularly in online spaces, even more fervidly than ever.

00:10:14.000 Nikki Haley, who you will... Well, you know Nikki Haley anyway.

00:10:16.000 She loves the war, and she loves the profit.

00:10:19.000 And she loves getting gnarly with Vivek, don't she, on the TV set? 0.95

00:10:23.000 And she don't like people having her daughter's name by this, by her mouth hole! 1.00

00:10:27.000 Do not mention my daughter's on TikTok!

00:10:29.000 She's also now saying that TikTok needs to be controlled and she wants an end to online anonymity.

00:10:36.000 But online anonymity, as well as of course it does permit trolling and stuff like that, but It also allows people to make revelations, it permits whistleblowers.

00:10:44.000 Think about during the Covid pandemic period.

00:10:46.000 Many of the people denied anonymity that reported stuff that we now know is factual would not have had the opportunity to anonymously report their information.

00:10:54.000 Look at what Nikki Haley's proposing and also look how she talks about algorithms.

00:10:58.000 I don't think she knows what algorithms are.

00:10:59.000 When I get into office, the first thing we have to do, social media accounts, social media companies, they have to show America their algorithms.

00:11:07.000 Let us see why they're pushing what they're pushing.

00:11:09.000 The second thing is every person on social media should be verified by their name.

00:11:15.000 Made up laws like people make up without thinking about it, innit?

00:11:18.000 That's... First of all, it's a national security threat.

00:11:20.000 When you do that, all of a sudden people have to stand by what they say.

00:11:24.000 And it gets rid of... Good luck criticizing the establishment!

00:11:27.000 Now we know where you live.

00:11:29.000 We're surveilling you anyway.

00:11:30.000 That's why C702 is being reintroduced.

00:11:34.000 Section 702.

00:11:35.000 It's coming back, baby.

00:11:36.000 We'll be surveilling you.

00:11:37.000 You're being surveilled now.

00:11:38.000 Legitimate surveillance of American citizens using terrorism Global terrorism as the justification for spying on American citizens.

00:11:46.000 It's been going on since 9-11.

00:11:48.000 It continues still.

00:11:49.000 The Russian bots, the Iranian bots, and the Chinese bots.

00:11:52.000 There's different bots.

00:11:53.000 You got Chinese bots, Iranian bots, Russian bots.

00:11:56.000 I quite like the Chinese bots.

00:11:58.000 Those Russian bots, you can't trust them. 1.00

00:12:00.000 They try to maneuver the other bots and they meddle in their elections.

00:12:04.000 And then you're going to get some civility when people know their name is next to what they say.

00:12:09.000 And they know their pastor and their family member is going to see it.

00:12:09.000 Accountability.

00:12:12.000 It's going to help our kids and it's going to help our country.

00:12:15.000 Where do you live, man?

00:12:16.000 What year are you living in where people are worried about their pastor and that?

00:12:19.000 Society's fallen apart!

00:12:21.000 You broke it!

00:12:22.000 You've annihilated it!

00:12:23.000 It's not some sort of cute little village no more, white picket fences, people concerned about their neighbours.

00:12:27.000 That society was broken down when all of us were turned into mind-numb, mindless consumers with no connection to one another, turned towards hating one another senselessly, mindlessly, By career politicians that don't understand the consequences of their actions, that are willing to use liberal language when it's appropriate, but never met a country they didn't want to drone.

00:12:47.000 Here she is.

00:12:48.000 It's Hillary Clinton talking about Douglas Mackey.

00:12:51.000 Now, you know Douglas Mackey.

00:12:52.000 He's got a seven-month prison sentence for posting memes.

00:12:55.000 Obviously, the framing of this was that it was election interference.

00:12:59.000 But does anyone really think you can text a vote?

00:13:01.000 I mean, you can't make any impact on democracy if you actually bother to vote, you know, let alone if you start Texting it into cyberspace.

00:13:08.000 Have a look at this.

00:13:09.000 This is...

00:13:11.000 Do we include the bit with Tucker?

00:13:14.000 Tucker's chatting to that dude Douglas Mackey that's going away for seven months for posting memes.

00:13:18.000 This is why we're talking about online freedom.

00:13:19.000 This is what we're talking about, that dissent is being criminalised.

00:13:23.000 It's being criminalised.

00:13:24.000 If you speak out consistently against real power, you are in serious trouble.

00:13:30.000 Douglas Mackey, seven-month prison sentence, and here's Hillary Clinton normalising this. 1.00

00:13:34.000 There we just saw Nikki Haley from the other party saying there should be no online anonymity. 0.99

00:13:40.000 Look at how this stuff all ties together.

00:13:42.000 There was just a trial in Brooklyn where a guy who had been one of the main... I guess he was one of the main people running memes against me in 2016.

00:13:52.000 One of the main memers.

00:13:55.000 The main running memes against me in 2016.

00:13:58.000 If they had run a meme against you in 2016, it probably would have won.

00:14:03.000 He went from what you could consider free speech.

00:14:06.000 I mean, both Nancy and I have pretty thick skins.

00:14:08.000 I would say reptilian.

00:14:10.000 People say all kinds of things about us.

00:14:12.000 But he went from that to running a very deliberate effort to mislead people about where and how to vote.

00:14:21.000 So it went from speech to action meant to subvert the election because thousands of people who they targeted through their algorithms.

00:14:33.000 Oh, I can text my vote for Hillary Clinton.

00:14:36.000 So Hillary Clinton, we... I want to deconstruct that in some greater detail in a minute, but it... Hey, you come in and fix this thing. 1.00

00:14:43.000 I've pressed the wrong button on this.

00:14:44.000 This is not you, viewers.

00:14:45.000 You stay with us.

00:14:46.000 So, like, can you see how the normalization of censorship is continuing?

00:14:50.000 Can you see that the incarceration of someone for posting text this number if you want to vote for Hillary, which was apparently happening... Thanks, mate.

00:14:56.000 Young Putin there.

00:14:58.000 He looks like young Putin.

00:14:59.000 He doesn't agree with his policies.

00:15:00.000 That invasion was provoked by NATO, as a matter of fact.

00:15:03.000 He would never have crossed that border had NATO not for ages been ignoring his demand that Crimea remain independent.

00:15:10.000 Hey, so yeah, what I'm saying there is that But plainly, free speech is becoming criminalised.

00:15:18.000 Wherever you look, there is more legislation that legitimises censorship.

00:15:23.000 There are people being imprisoned for posting memes.

00:15:27.000 There's a cry to get rid of online anonymity.

00:15:31.000 All of these measures essentially facilitate centralised control, wouldn't you say?

00:15:38.000 So here's how the mainstream, the legacy media, are cynical when it comes to reporting from independent media, but compliant when legacy media uptakes it.

00:15:51.000 This is a story about Iran and a sort of a $10 billion, what you'll see from the video.

00:15:57.000 The US is about to issue a new waiver on Iran that will allow Iran to access $10 billion Why?

00:16:08.000 How?

00:16:08.000 When?

00:16:09.000 Anything you can tell us.

00:16:09.000 I think you certainly shouldn't expect me to comment on speculation on social media and I will decline to do so.

00:16:15.000 Go ahead and then we'll wrap it up.

00:16:16.000 Is it true though?

00:16:18.000 I think I just answered it or declined to answer.

00:16:21.000 Oh we're not having that and there's a distinction between social media and independent media I would say.

00:16:25.000 Like we try to do our very best to ensure that the information we give you is undergirded by Decent fact we fact-check it and not the kind of Reuters fact-checking That's got curious financial ties or the Facebook fact-checking that ultimately appears to be funding it funded in unusual ways We'll be telling you more about that over the coming weeks, and yeah sure enough the next day legacy media report

00:16:46.000 Biden admin renewed sanctions waiver, giving Iran access to 10 billion dollars from Iraq.

00:16:50.000 Extraordinary, given the escalating tensions.

00:16:53.000 It's almost as if war, from all angles, is beneficial to the truly powerful interests.

00:16:59.000 Meanwhile, independent media is further censored.

00:17:03.000 Like Mint Press, which is a sort of a UK-based online media organization, has been demonetized by YouTube.

00:17:10.000 Presumably because they've said something about the current conflict in the Middle East that whoever runs YouTube don't agree with.

00:17:17.000 And remember that YouTube are part of the Trusted News Initiative that includes the BBC, Facebook, a group that decide when something is disinformation and misinformation.

00:17:25.000 The same way that YouTube use the WHO to provide their community guidelines when it comes to health matters, the Trusted News Initiative ensure compliance in other Hey, we're still on YouTube right now, so I shouldn't be being so critical because I am grateful.

00:17:39.000 I'm grateful to all of you that are watching on that platform, but I do need to ask you to join us over on Rumble.

00:17:45.000 You've just seen now, in spite of what you've been told, it's not just like a sort of a crackpot, lunatic, hell hole for denizens of the conspiracy theory world, although We do like to discuss the odd conspiracy theory.

00:17:57.000 Chief 411 says free speech is becoming criminalized.

00:18:00.000 I'm not your buddy guy.

00:18:01.000 A $2 tip there.

00:18:03.000 Did you see the FBI leak where they're classifying anyone who questions vaccines, refuse to wear a mask, or religious as far-right extremists?

00:18:09.000 I've said it before and I'll say it again, they're commies.

00:18:13.000 That's nice.

00:18:14.000 Thanks for the couple of dollars.

00:18:16.000 That hat is driving my attention deficit disorder nuts.

00:18:16.000 Kate Leska.

00:18:19.000 Is it fleece?

00:18:19.000 Is it new?

00:18:20.000 It looks fuzzy.

00:18:21.000 I like the neutral color with the blue accent.

00:18:23.000 You will never know the details of my complex hat.

00:18:25.000 That is the simple truth of the matter.

00:18:27.000 Now we're going to talk in a minute about that manhunt that took place after someone was alleged to have assaulted a police officer on January 6th.

00:18:36.000 They'd go for it, man.

00:18:37.000 There's like about four or five agencies hunting this dude.

00:18:39.000 Also, someone commented earlier, he wanted to see about the return of mask mandates in Australia.

00:18:45.000 The legacy media over there are not having it.

00:18:47.000 If you're watching this on YouTube, come on over.

00:18:49.000 Come on over to the home of free speech.

00:18:52.000 It's a truly independent space.

00:18:55.000 No affiliation.

00:18:56.000 New movement.

00:18:57.000 Independent media leads to independent politics, which leads to revolution and change.

00:19:01.000 I mean, peaceful?

00:19:02.000 Of course.

00:19:02.000 We would not advocate violence, not under any circumstances.

00:19:06.000 In fact, our opposition to war is absolute.

00:19:09.000 Self-protection?

00:19:10.000 Yes, under all circumstances.

00:19:12.000 But aggression?

00:19:13.000 Oh man, where's it gonna lead?

00:19:14.000 Okay, so if you're watching on YouTube, click the link in the description.

00:19:17.000 Join us!

00:19:18.000 Join us!

00:19:19.000 Join us over here, over on Rumble.

00:19:21.000 Now, this is that manhunt story.

00:19:23.000 A dude who's alleged to have assaulted a police officer is getting pursued by, I don't know, like about 10 agencies.

00:19:29.000 There's the FBI are after him, anti-terror squads.

00:19:32.000 Check it out.

00:19:32.000 An all-out manhunt tonight in this small central New Jersey town just 40 miles southwest of New York City after this man, wanted in connection to the attack at the Capitol on January 6th, evaded arrest.

00:19:44.000 Gregory Yetman fleeing on foot into the wooded area near his home.

00:19:49.000 Police searching from the sky and on the ground.

00:19:52.000 According to USA Today, Yetman is suspect number 278 AFO, wanted for assault of a federal officer, pictured at the Capitol in these photos on the FBI's website.

00:20:04.000 Bill Burr wanted.

00:20:06.000 In an interview earlier this year, Yetman indicated he was at the Capitol that day, but said he did nothing wrong.

00:20:13.000 The FBI leading the multi-agency manhunt in the town of Helmetta.

00:20:18.000 Multi-agency?

00:20:19.000 Officers in tactical gear looking in vehicles, teams moving through backyards armed with long guns and canines.

00:20:28.000 There were officers running through everybody's yards, asking questions.

00:20:33.000 Even though the sun has gone down, we can still see joint terrorism task force agents going door to door.

00:20:42.000 They're doing worse things, like, in the Senate.

00:20:45.000 Instead of fighting each other in there, how dare you?

00:20:48.000 How dare you on January 6th come there and cause all that trouble?

00:20:52.000 Right, you! 1.00

00:20:53.000 I'll do you, son of a bitch! 1.00

00:20:54.000 I'll elbow you in the kidneys! 1.00

00:20:55.000 They're fighting in there anyway. 1.00

00:20:57.000 All that mad corruption.

00:20:58.000 It seems to me that they're making a clear example.

00:21:01.000 If you want to oppose power, if you want to protest, if you want to come together with your fellow Americans and oppose the establishment elites, There's a SWAT team coming for you.

00:21:12.000 Let me know in the chat if you think this is about making an example for him.

00:21:14.000 Yes, if you do.

00:21:16.000 No, if you don't.

00:21:17.000 It's about making an example of this, guys, which seems like, to me, anti-terror squads, canines, guns, even questions.

00:21:24.000 They're all saying yes over on locals.

00:21:26.000 Press the red button, join them over there.

00:21:27.000 It's a lovely little crew.

00:21:28.000 We do Bible readings.

00:21:29.000 We do meditations.

00:21:30.000 We've not done one for a while, have we?

00:21:31.000 Oh, no, we did one yesterday.

00:21:32.000 Yeah, we, like, join the community.

00:21:34.000 We're trying to make each other well in this crazy world.

00:21:37.000 Over in the Rumble chat, yes, yes, yes.

00:21:39.000 Yes, says Disco Duck.

00:21:41.000 I'm not your buddy guy.

00:21:43.000 Yes.

00:21:43.000 Hellcat164.

00:21:44.000 Hellof.

00:21:44.000 Yes.

00:21:45.000 Lexaroney.

00:21:45.000 Yes.

00:21:46.000 Centralscrutinizer.

00:21:46.000 Big yes.

00:21:47.000 You're all saying yes.

00:21:49.000 Balios.

00:21:50.000 And then one that I think is a bot saying don't take the vaccine.

00:21:50.000 Yes, yes, yes.

00:21:55.000 I think I've been pretty clear on that subject.

00:21:57.000 Bloody hell.

00:21:58.000 Then there's lots of mad stuff going on.

00:22:01.000 But, you know, it's a live chat stream.

00:22:03.000 There's a lot of craziness.

00:22:04.000 Hey! 0.99

00:22:05.000 Listen, we respect your free speech, right?

00:22:07.000 We love your free speech.

00:22:08.000 Speak freely over there in that chat.

00:22:09.000 We love you.

00:22:10.000 Speak freely over there in the Awake and Wonder chat.

00:22:13.000 Because, when you are divided, it's very easy to control you, and the left, that were complaining about censorship, like, well no, excuse me, when the left were saying it's not, there is no censorship, there is no censorship, a little while ago, and now acknowledging censorship is a thing.

00:22:31.000 Right?

00:22:31.000 Because it's shifted.

00:22:32.000 But then there are people on the right that are saying, no, you do need a little bit of censorship.

00:22:35.000 But where do you stand on free speech?

00:22:38.000 Are you a free speech absolutist?

00:22:39.000 Yes or no?

00:22:40.000 Tell me in the chat while we look at this conversation between Tucker and Glenn Greenwald who expose right-wing censorship occurring on the current Hamas-Israel war after three years of censorship on the subjects of COVID and Ukraine, which is wrong.

00:22:56.000 Does either of your American parties really believe in free speech or both simply favor speech for themselves and the censoring of their enemies?

00:23:03.000 Yes, yes, yes, says Kyle Reiner.

00:23:05.000 Yes, yes, yes. 1.00

00:23:07.000 Just yeses and a few fuck yeses over there. 1.00

00:23:09.000 River deep, mountain high. 1.00

00:23:10.000 Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:23:13.000 Here's the news?

00:23:14.000 Here's the effing news.

00:23:14.000 No.

00:23:15.000 Stay with us, and by the way, if you've got any ideas for stories you want us to cover, post in the chat and we'll cover it.

00:23:21.000 And no more talk of all these nipples, because I will not show you any more.

00:23:24.000 You've seen the last of these. 0.91

00:23:26.000 Here's the news.

00:23:26.000 No, here's the effing news.

00:23:28.000 Thank you for choosing Fox News.

00:23:29.000 The news. 1.00

00:23:30.000 No, here's the fucking news. 0.99

00:23:33.000 Tucker and Greenwald exposed that the right is now pro-censorship when it comes to the Middle Eastern war. 0.99

00:23:40.000 We know that the left are pro-censorship because of the last three years of Covid and Ukraine censorship.

00:23:45.000 So does either party believe in free speech anymore?

00:23:50.000 Today we are discussing the legacy media and both political parties adverse reaction to your free speech and your free thought.

00:23:59.000 This comes off the back of a brilliant conversation between Glenn Greenwald and Tucker Carlson where they talk about the escalating Middle Eastern tensions and how that's created a kind of aptitude and even acceptance of censorship on the right that previously was not there at all.

00:24:13.000 Does being pro-free speech always mean being pro-speech that you're opposed to?

00:24:18.000 Willing to listen to alternative and opposing ideas that you're explicitly against but accept that in principle you have to hear.

00:24:25.000 Let's have a look at them talking about it and then let's look at the normalization of censorship that's taken place across the world in the last few years and has led to a spate of legislation, cancellation, shutting down of dissent and normalizing the unpersoning, canceling, de-financing and control of ordinary citizens and entire political movements.

00:24:45.000 What's so terrifying to me though is that The right, the American political right, which really was through this kind of weird transformation that's happened over the past dozen years, has become the lone defenders of the First Amendment.

00:24:59.000 They've abandoned that in the last month, like instantly.

00:25:04.000 So I think you could say, you know, I strongly support Israel.

00:25:07.000 I strongly dislike Hamas.

00:25:08.000 I'm rooting for, maybe I think we should commit troops to the region.

00:25:11.000 I mean, whatever, you can have any view you want.

00:25:13.000 However, American citizens have a right to express their opinion.

00:25:18.000 Period.

00:25:19.000 And that supersedes any other event in any other country.

00:25:23.000 It's like, that's a core right.

00:25:25.000 And I don't hear many conservatives saying that.

00:25:28.000 And so you sort of wonder, like, if they're not defending it, who will?

00:25:33.000 I mean, there are people who have built their careers, Tucker, over the last five, six years, standing up and saying, we can't have cancel culture, we can't have censorship, college students aren't entitled to feelings of safety, we don't censor in order to protect people from views they find threatening, mocking the notion that minority groups are vulnerable and we have to censor in order to protect them.

00:25:55.000 Turn on a dime!

00:25:57.000 Well, principles are expensive.

00:26:11.000 In the end, these principles and values ultimately might mean personal or ideological sacrifice.

00:26:18.000 In fact, if it doesn't involve that, it probably isn't a principle.

00:26:21.000 It's probably a kind of tribalist alliance, perhaps.

00:26:24.000 Let me know where you stand on that.

00:26:26.000 Ideological musing in the chat below.

00:26:28.000 Let's see how in the last few years, censorship has been normalized on the left.

00:26:32.000 It created a kind of new political movement.

00:26:34.000 And to tell you the truth, I feel like I'm part of it where it's, oh, I don't care anymore whether you think you're left or right.

00:26:38.000 What I believe in is your acceptance of other people's right to organize their own community and say what they believe in.

00:26:44.000 And I don't agree with harmful speech or hate speech.

00:26:46.000 Those things are abhorrent to me.

00:26:47.000 But I do agree with the view of people that I'm opposed to.

00:26:51.000 Otherwise, that means you don't agree with free speech.

00:26:53.000 Let's get into this in some detail.

00:26:54.000 It's true that during wartime, governments sometimes censor and restrict liberties, including on the basis of ideology, race, and religion.

00:27:01.000 But after governments have done so, societies almost always regret what occurred.

00:27:05.000 After 9-11, the FBI abused its powers and entrapped Muslims.

00:27:09.000 After Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered the rounding up of Japanese Americans.

00:27:14.000 These are moral stains on our history.

00:27:16.000 Keeping military secrets is one thing.

00:27:18.000 Demanding censorship of even ugly, awful and offensive speech is another.

00:27:22.000 People are saying revolting things.

00:27:24.000 They must remain free to do so, not just because the First Amendment requires it, but also because talking back to hatred is ultimately the only way to overcome it.

00:27:32.000 And while the suppression of free expression always starts with the least popular speech, it never ends there.

00:27:38.000 Yes, it does seem, just on my experience in the last few years, that certain figures were taken out of the culture, but over time that has escalated to include more people and more ideas and it's been a kind of expanding remit of ideas and speech and individuals that can be censored and shut down.

00:27:55.000 Have you noticed that yourself?

00:27:57.000 And in a way, even though free speech necessarily means hearing speech you don't agree with, that's An easier sacrifice to make than its alternative, the ongoing implementation of ever-increasing censorship, particularly when you suspect from movements of power elsewhere in the world that there's a desire to centralise authority.

00:28:17.000 I'm talking about legislation for censorship, online safety bills, the bill in Canada, the bill in Ireland, EU's proposals, the introduction of CBDCs that primarily seem to be beneficial because they can be controlled and shut down.

00:28:29.000 I suppose Taken in context with the apparent agenda to increase authoritarianism, this increase in censorship via challenging free speech on the basis of hate speech is a trend that has to be observed.

00:28:43.000 And I suppose it's surprising, isn't it, that people that had built their career around it, or people that were determined that free speech was everything, suddenly abandoning it.

00:28:51.000 That's curious, isn't it?

00:28:52.000 A month ago, France banned all pro-Palestinian demonstrations in the country.

00:28:56.000 On the same day, Germany banned a pro-Palestinian protest group.

00:28:59.000 In the UK, the Home Secretary instructed police to consider taking unspecified measures against such actions as chanting slogans and waving a Palestinian flag.

00:29:08.000 In the United States, such measures would clearly violate the Constitution.

00:29:11.000 Such state suppression of political speech is anathema to American values.

00:29:15.000 But in the United States too, our commitment to free speech is being tested.

00:29:18.000 Within hours of the attacks, a number of Harvard student groups signed a letter placing blame for all violence in the region on Israel alone.

00:29:25.000 The apartheid regime is the only one to blame, it read.

00:29:27.000 Bill Ackman, a billionaire hedge fund manager, demanded that Harvard release the names

00:29:32.000 of all the student members of those groups so that he could compile a hiring blacklist

00:29:35.000 for his CEO friends.

00:29:37.000 Someone on Twitter compiled such a list himself called the Terror List.

00:29:40.000 Later, a truck began circling the Harvard campus with digital billboards displaying the names and faces

00:29:46.000 of students alleged to have signed the statement under the title Harvard's Leading Anti-Semites.

00:29:50.000 Websites popped up listing student members' names, pictures, social media profiles,

00:29:55.000 classier hometowns and former employers.

00:29:58.000 Republican Senator Josh Hawley said he hoped the Department of Justice was investigating pro-Palestinian student groups like the ones at Harvard.

00:30:04.000 The Harvard students weren't the only ones who faced real-world retaliation for their views.

00:30:08.000 An NYU law school student saw a job offer rescinded for expressing a sentiment similar to the one in the Harvard student group letter.

00:30:15.000 NYU Student Bar Association voted to remove the student as president.

00:30:19.000 The Philly Voice fired a sports riot for tweeting solidarity with Palestine always.

00:30:24.000 Do you recall at the beginning of the assent of Jordan Peterson that he said, what's happening on campuses now will spread to the culture and you'll start to see this tendency towards cancellation and enforced speech and prohibition of speech?

00:30:38.000 And it was obviously, you know, you all know how Jordan Peterson is regarded in the culture.

00:30:42.000 Some of you now, because of Jordan Peterson's position on this war might have changed your perspective on him.

00:30:48.000 But I feel the principle that Jordan Peterson was talking about was essentially free speech and refusing coercive speech.

00:30:54.000 Now we're in a position where we're sort of normalizing cancellation.

00:30:59.000 We're normalizing actions that don't seem to have due process behind them at all.

00:31:02.000 It's just like these people signed this list and I don't know.

00:31:05.000 Wouldn't you be happy to be friends with someone who is pro-Palestine or someone that's pro-Israel?

00:31:09.000 Is that for you a line?

00:31:10.000 I mean, I noticed that this got exacerbated in Trump.

00:31:13.000 It was like a kind of joke thing.

00:31:14.000 Oh, what to do with your relatives that are pro-Trump at Christmas?

00:31:17.000 And already for someone my age, that was an exaggeration and an amplification of the Ordinary tensions that were in any family.

00:31:24.000 Any family would have people that were a bit conservative and some that were socialist.

00:31:28.000 Unless you're in a very particular community where everyone's a docker or works at a coal mine or something, then you live in a very sort of insular tribalized community.

00:31:36.000 But it was accepted that we didn't need to be so opposed to one another that we wanted the government to step in and censor speech on our behalf.

00:31:46.000 You know, like, when you show your kid a movie and it's like, oh, this is meant to be a PG movie or a 12 movie, and you think, well, this movie, I'm thinking it's particularly of Little Shop of Horrors, shouldn't be a PG movie.

00:31:55.000 It's too crazy.

00:31:56.000 But then I think, well, I am still in charge.

00:31:58.000 I can just stop my kid watching this movie if I want to.

00:32:01.000 We have power at the level of the individual.

00:32:03.000 We have power at the level of the community.

00:32:05.000 I wonder what is lost by empowering the state and other agencies to shut down, in particular, free speech on our behalf just because, in this instance, we happen to agree with it.

00:32:16.000 There's certainly been a lot of things said about me lately that I wish had been shut down, let me tell you, but hey, free speech.

00:32:21.000 All of this is legal in the United States, much of it is protected speech, but it's hard to deny at least without moving goalposts that the backlash is as clear an example as one can find of cancel culture.

00:32:31.000 The purpose of exposing and punishing each of them personally is the same as when left-wing activists dox and shame their enemies to make anyone who thinks of voicing even moderate dissent, such as criticising the scale or conduct of Israel's military response, think twice lest they be punished too.

00:32:45.000 Meanwhile, the same publications that have dismissed and denied the reality of government-funded, government-demanded and government-coerced censorship are raising the alarm about widespread censorship of progressive voices on social media platforms.

00:32:57.000 It's one thing we can agree on, that we all want to be healthy and stronger, and that's why we use Fielder Greens.

00:33:51.000 Let's get back into this.

00:33:52.000 In its story on the censorship of pro-Palestinian voices, the Washington Post expresses great skepticism of big tech and sympathy for the people censored.

00:34:02.000 The exact opposite of how it treated the issue when it was non-leftists who were being censored.

00:34:06.000 In fact, the Washington Post, like most news media, spent years denying that censorship was occurring, even as they called for more of it.

00:34:13.000 To be sure, there has been a concerning increase in demands for censorship and blacklisting since the October 7th Hamas attacks.

00:34:20.000 Government officials are threatening to defund colleges for things students have said and are even demanding their expulsion.

00:34:25.000 The State University System of Florida incorrectly warned that calls for Israel to be wiped off the map are criminal activity.

00:34:32.000 And political officials, including the Attorney General of New York, are demanding greater censorship by social media platforms to stop the spread of violent rhetoric.

00:34:41.000 I'm reminded of how the Section 702 bill introduced as part of the Patriot Act after 9-11 is used to spy on American citizens using skullduggery and manipulation, and they've spied both on Black Lives Matter activists and participants in January the 6th.

00:34:57.000 When it comes to the deep state, When it comes to real power, what we regard as extreme and polarised position, like the example I just offered you, Black Lives Matter January 6th, that seems pretty extreme in American political culture.

00:35:09.000 Well, they'll be subject to the same kind of exploitation of surveillance and I would assume censorship and other measures of control that I strongly believe will be introduced if people aren't able to have open conversations about very contentious and in particular incendiary subjects like Palestine-Israel.

00:35:28.000 Unless people can have an open discourse about that without being censored, unless you can have a workplace where people that are pro-Palestine and people that are pro-Israel can find a way to work together, I don't actually see a way forward because in the end you'll have to say, well, we're not doing that and we're going to create more polarity, more tribalism and...

00:35:45.000 Ultimately in so doing, you empower centralised authority, which is garnering authority at an extraordinary rate in a bunch of ways that aren't initially obvious, but like the WHO proposed treaty is something you should look at, the legislation I've already mentioned around the world, the increasing surveillance powers, the tendency towards censorship, and many people believe, and I'd love to know what you think about this, that free speech is the fundamental right, because without free speech you can't have free thought, you can't have open communication, you can't have real relationships, you have to live in a kind of ongoing That's a real good way of exerting control.

00:36:19.000 And to tell you the truth, that's the kind of tyranny and authoritarianism that scares me more than the last iteration of militarized tyranny.

00:36:27.000 Although, I'm actually scared of all forms of dictatorship and tyranny, actually.

00:36:31.000 I suppose.

00:36:31.000 But this is what seems to be the trend.

00:36:33.000 A kind of sanitised, shutting down, an agreement in principle that that sort of speech is unsayable, that that sort of person should be cancelled.

00:36:41.000 Then once you legitimise that, then you've essentially empowered the establishment to kind of do what it wants.

00:36:46.000 But the alarm that the news media are raising is in striking contrast to the indifference at best and hostility at worst to the evidence of governmental and non-governmental censorship of a variety of disfavored views and voices relating to climate change, COVID, Ukraine, and the Biden family's influence peddling.

00:37:02.000 For years, the left has insisted that cancelling blacklisting, shadow banning, and censorship were legitimate actions to punish people with unsavory views, protect safety, and fight disinformation.

00:37:11.000 Now that the left may be on the receiving end of these tactics, they argue what many of us have been saying all along.

00:37:16.000 Censorship causes far more harm than good.

00:37:19.000 But the left is yet to acknowledge its double standards.

00:37:21.000 Why is that?

00:37:22.000 So everyone's just swatched sides.

00:37:24.000 So no one actually cares about anything at all.

00:37:26.000 I mean, isn't that worrying?

00:37:27.000 Doesn't that suggest that we're not going to be able to find a way for, let's just take the example of American democracy because it's such a significant one, to not bypass but to get through the 2024 election cycle successfully.

00:37:41.000 It seems that at best there's just going to be ongoing mudslinging by either side and isn't that the problem that's been in our culture since at least the build up to 2016 and it's getting worse and worse and no one's doing anything about it.

00:37:52.000 There are no solid principles where you say well at least we all agree on that.

00:37:57.000 Increasingly, that's disappearing from our culture.

00:37:59.000 The simplest explanation for the left's hypocrisy on censorship is simply that they favour free speech for themselves and censorship for their enemies.

00:38:06.000 Evidence of this can be found in virtually every mainstream news article about the Twitterphiles.

00:38:10.000 Last December, The Guardian even acknowledged that the Twitterphiles showed censorship, but that such censorship should be welcomed, because it was against the political right.

00:38:17.000 Like so much to do with American politics, opined Guardian's tech columnist Alex Hearn, the files fall flat if you view the American right as an outlier.

00:38:24.000 If you have rules against election misinformation and only one party engages in a systematic campaign of election misinformation, it's not an unreasonable outcome for one party to be the focus of moderation efforts.

00:38:34.000 But that's simply not the case.

00:38:36.000 We know that both parties engage in misinformation.

00:38:40.000 Misinformation just used to be called propaganda or campaigning or media manipulation or whatever you want to call it.

00:38:45.000 It's simply not a uni-party issue.

00:38:48.000 For years, Wired magazine insisted that misinformation and disinformation resulted in real-world harms, including the election of Trump, and that more social media censorship was needed.

00:38:56.000 But now, Wired says, it's censorship, not misinformation, that's causing real-world harm.

00:39:01.000 Palestinians claim social media censorship is endangering lives, reads the headline of Wired's piece denouncing social media censorship of Palestinians in Gaza and around the world.

00:39:11.000 TechCrunch dismissed the Twitter files spread by Barry Weiss on the shadow banning of disfavored voices because it only shows examples of moderation actions that affect a handful of conservative fringe accounts.

00:39:21.000 The so-called fringe accounts included that of Stanford University professor Jay Bhattacharya, a leading global thinker on how to respond to pandemics.

00:39:28.000 But such one-sidedness should be problematic for all journalists who claim to be fair and for advocates of free speech.

00:39:34.000 After all, it's not advocacy of free speech if the free speech is just for your team and not for your opponents.

00:39:39.000 Most people on the left do not appear to realize that they are contradicting themselves by lamenting censorship of pro-Palestinian voices.

00:39:45.000 Today, former President Barack Obama called for a respectful dialogue between people who disagree on Israel.

00:39:50.000 But just one year ago, Obama urged greater social media censorship of views with which he disagrees, and called for the US government to create a regulatory structure to limit speech online.

00:40:00.000 Since 2016, the left has increasingly espoused a tribal, rather than liberal, approach to politics.

00:40:05.000 In fighting what they viewed as the threat of fascism and white supremacy, the left decided to, in large part, do away with the basic principles of liberal democracy, and to apply different speech rights, and even legal rights, to different people on the basis of a friend-enemy distinction.

00:40:19.000 All of this is thus bad news for anyone who cares about free speech for all, and protecting liberal democracy.

00:40:25.000 It shows that many of the people who are ostensibly committed to free speech, whether on the left or right, really only support it when it's for their group.

00:40:32.000 It reveals that underneath our rationalist minds, there remains a highly tribal reptilian brain.

00:40:37.000 In the face of the horrors that have occurred and those to come, we must not lose our humanity and our principles.

00:40:42.000 It's possible for every one of us to have compassion for innocent people on all sides.

00:40:46.000 It's also possible for every one of us to defend free speech for the views we most abhor.

00:40:50.000 In so doing, we care more, not less, and keep the possibility of peace and security alive, however remote it may be at the moment.

00:40:57.000 I suppose the abandonment of generally accepted principles at a time of crisis can only exacerbate those sets of crises.

00:41:05.000 Long been obvious to me that principles and values were being weaponised, used to persecute people, to shut down debate, to create conflict.

00:41:13.000 What I suppose we have to look at is how our willingness to put aside our own principles and values when it's convenient to us are likely to affect society as a whole,

00:41:23.000 it's a very difficult thing to hold in your mind and in your heart

00:41:26.000 what it is to observe the sanctity of the individual, the beauty of your individual connection to whatever higher

00:41:33.000 reality or deeper purpose you believe in,

00:41:36.000 and all of our shared duties towards community, whether that's a local or a global level.

00:41:40.000 The problem I think we're experiencing as culture becomes banalizing,

00:41:44.000 anodyne, as well as curiously highly conflagratory and conflict-driven,

00:41:50.000 is none of us feel particularly connected to reality anymore.

00:41:53.000 When you are allotted a role in a culture that ultimately leaves you simply as a consumer or an online activist, it's easy to feel disconnected from reality.

00:42:02.000 It's easy to feel disconnected from principles.

00:42:05.000 It's easy to feel disconnected from the environment and conditions that we evolved in.

00:42:09.000 I feel that where possible, we have to look for ways to emulate the conditions we evolved in.

00:42:14.000 Communities where we understood one another, where we knew that we had a shared purpose, where we recognised there are different tribal groups with whom we have a broader shared purpose.

00:42:23.000 Recently I heard the phrase, curiously from one of the creators of Wikipedia, unified but decentralised.

00:42:30.000 It seems to me that if we have true democracy, if we have true individual freedom, if we have true freedom of speech, we are going to be able to create a culture where open conversation, civil disagreement, diplomatic solutions again become possible.

00:42:45.000 The more we are in conflict with one another, the more we're willing to put aside our principles because temporarily it's convenient for us, the more More likely it is that the advance of establishment elites that benefit from conflict will continue.

00:42:57.000 The example I used of surveillance being applied to what are regarded as outside, alien or undesirable groups, whether that's from the left, Black Lives Matter, or the right, January 6th protesters, No.

00:43:07.000 shows you that to the institutions and groups that are truly in power, our division is absolutely

00:43:12.000 vital. Our willingness not to hold fast and firm to principles is a great weapon to people

00:43:17.000 that ultimately benefit from censorship, shutting down of free speech, centralising resources

00:43:23.000 and passing edicts that bypass democracy entirely. But that's just what I think. Let me know

00:43:28.000 what you think. See you in a second.

00:43:29.000 Thanks for watching Zipbox TV. Here's the fucking news. Disco Duck 2, Chris Christie is a fat bastard. I- 0.99

00:43:38.000 I watched this rumble chat in something approaching or old, what's he called?

00:43:45.000 Wolfenblond.

00:43:46.000 Oh, not Wolfenblond.

00:43:47.000 You're getting some hate, Wolfenblond. 0.96

00:43:49.000 But this is a free speech platform.

00:43:51.000 So yous lot can chat about whatever you want to chat about in there.

00:43:54.000 What do you think about the US dollar again?

00:43:56.000 Decentralised by BRIC? 1.00

00:43:57.000 Yeah, that's the way it's going.

00:43:59.000 These are the sort of deep geopolitical trends that matter, aren't they, mate?

00:44:01.000 Sort of financial ones.

00:44:03.000 New relationships forming between, yeah, Brazil, China, Iran, all that.

00:44:07.000 That is the true direction of power.

00:44:09.000 There's no question.

00:44:10.000 Philippus, you should have Douglas MacGregor on.

00:44:12.000 OK, OK.

00:44:13.000 Is this live now, Jack Desponte?

00:44:15.000 How would I know about you, Jack Desponte?

00:44:17.000 How would I know that Thracian was the next person to post if it wasn't live right now? 0.99

00:44:22.000 I'm not your buddy guy.

00:44:23.000 A potentially fair litmus test speech for, excuse me, a litmus test for free speech and censorship should be, you defend the full speech of those who would defend free speech and refuse to defend those who are pro-censorship.

00:44:35.000 Cool, got it.

00:44:36.000 Russell, do an interview of the Lotus Eaters, says 709er. 0.98

00:44:51.000 No, I've not watched that.

00:44:52.000 Would you consider having Jason Hincolons as No Jabbers? 0.99

00:44:55.000 Yeah, I would.

00:44:56.000 Wow, what do you think about my... yeah, I told you what I thought about that.

00:45:00.000 They told me about that time I was on Morning Joe.

00:45:01.000 Yeah, that was crazy.

00:45:02.000 That was crazy.

00:45:03.000 So listen, right, we're gonna show you this story about Australian media and an Australian doctor saying we're not having those mask mandates back. 0.99

00:45:10.000 We've had just about enough of that crap. 0.97

00:45:13.000 They do it different in Australia. 1.00

00:45:19.000 Join us over there if you want to.

00:45:21.000 We're gonna do an extra 15 minutes on the We're going to stay here for a bit longer.

00:45:25.000 We're going to talk about this stuff in Australia.

00:45:27.000 The mask mandates are back and the Australians are pretty pissed about it, I'll tell you that. 0.90

00:45:31.000 Then, you've got to tell us.

00:45:33.000 Press 1 for a story about a dude in Congress who's been going to dog fights and setting up dog fights.

00:45:40.000 That's 1.

00:45:42.000 Dogs in America that are too cute to be used as sort of control dogs.

00:45:48.000 Three, uh, crows.

00:45:51.000 Clever crows.

00:45:52.000 And then there was one other one, wasn't there?

00:45:54.000 Was there one other?

00:45:55.000 Like clever crows is killing it over in the local shop.

00:45:58.000 Was there one?

00:45:59.000 Just those three.

00:46:00.000 So, one, dog fire in Congress.

00:46:02.000 Two, dogs that are too cute to do their jobs because they're so sweet.

00:46:06.000 Oh, three, clever crows. 0.88

00:46:08.000 The clever crow one is a video.

00:46:10.000 For a minute, we're going to, we're going to, three, yeah, a lot of you want the clever crows, but we're going to just talk about these mask mandates being back in America.

00:46:18.000 And why don't you lot See, yeah, I know Whitney Webb already.

00:46:21.000 I saw someone chatting about Whitney Webb.

00:46:22.000 I love Whitney Webb.

00:46:23.000 She goes there.

00:46:24.000 I get scared when I talk to Whitney Webb because she just sits there, very relaxed, playing this day, talking about people who went to Jeffrey Epstein's island.

00:46:31.000 Terrifying.

00:46:32.000 Very frightening to talk to her. 0.61

00:46:34.000 She's scary.

00:46:34.000 She's brilliant.

00:46:35.000 Okay, and a lot of you are saying free.

00:46:37.000 We're going to do a little bit about mask mandates, and then I'm just going to ask you all to see if you can peacefully discuss matters in the Middle East.

00:46:46.000 Try and come to a solution.

00:46:47.000 Look into Albert Pike.

00:46:49.000 Yeah, what is Albert Pike?

00:46:50.000 Is he Illuminati?

00:46:51.000 Is that what it is?

00:46:51.000 Alright guys, I'm going to get into this Australia mask mandate story.

00:46:55.000 Let's have a look at how they're reporting on the return of mask mandates.

00:46:58.000 It'll surprise you, they're not into it.

00:47:01.000 Masks.

00:47:02.000 Warning, it's time to cover up in public gatherings, hospitals and flights amid the nation's eighth COVID wave. 0.61

00:47:08.000 Let's bring in today medical expert Dr Nick Coatsworth in Canberra.

00:47:11.000 Doc, good morning to you.

00:47:12.000 Firstly, handsome.

00:47:13.000 If he was in Canada, they'd make him Prime Minister, wouldn't they?

00:47:15.000 Just on the basis of the haircut alone.

00:47:17.000 Amazing looking man.

00:47:18.000 Until they heard his views on COVID, then they'd be like, no.

00:47:21.000 To you, is it really necessary?

00:47:25.000 Carlos, if masks work at all, they only work when you wear them in all situations as part of a suite of measures, including social distancing and movement restrictions, which I can assure you we're not going back to.

00:47:38.000 Now, the AMA has quoted 240... Just eat, handsome.

00:47:42.000 No.

00:47:42.000 A suite of measures?

00:47:44.000 ...hospitalisations with COVID in this wave in Queensland.

00:47:44.000 Yes.

00:47:48.000 But I want to remind our viewers that there are over a million admissions to Queensland hospitals every year.

00:47:53.000 So the suggestion that this is a wave is probably incorrect.

00:47:57.000 We don't need to go back to masks and we need to remind ourselves that the Australian... Meta-Analyst. 0.92

00:48:02.000 I finally made it to one of these.

00:48:03.000 Welcome Meta-Analyst.

00:48:04.000 We have a lot of fun.

00:48:05.000 We're going to be showing you that crow clip in a minute.

00:48:05.000 We chat.

00:48:08.000 I forgot that the farting crow is one of our icons from our friends at Sticker Mule.

00:48:13.000 And I see you lot saying that you've been eating fielder greens and it makes you fart. 0.99

00:48:17.000 It's a damn good, damn good drink. 0.98

00:48:19.000 The Medical Association is a political lobby group, not a group of... 0.98

00:48:22.000 Okay, you need to expand on that because I couldn't agree with you more.

00:48:27.000 And I think, you know, when you talk about waves, the language around all this can sometimes get fanned.

00:48:33.000 It's not right.

00:48:35.000 That's right, Carl.

00:48:39.000 Let's reassure the public that vaccination works, that COVID is now a milder disease because of what we call herd immunity.

00:48:47.000 We've all been exposed to it.

00:48:48.000 And there are other ways to manage the hospital pressures.

00:48:51.000 Here in Canberra, we use virtual care clinics, we use... That's right, Kyle!

00:48:56.000 ...hospital in the homes.

00:48:57.000 And frankly, I was on shift yesterday and we had not a single patient with COVID in our acute medical unit.

00:49:03.000 Vaccinations work.

00:49:04.000 Yeah, I see you, Venus Siren, over there in the Awakened Wonder chat on Locals.

00:49:08.000 Remember, we're going to do an additional 15 minutes over on Locals afterwards.

00:49:12.000 Let me know what you want us to cover in there.

00:49:12.000 Let's start.

00:49:13.000 We'll be doing those crows in a minute.

00:49:15.000 They started off quite a hard line, didn't they, saying no masks, but they're getting on back on narrative pretty fast.

00:49:20.000 So I don't think that it's the disaster that's sometimes made out to be, and we need to listen to the right people.

00:49:26.000 Public health physicians, infectious disease physicians.

00:49:28.000 Good to talk to you, Doc.

00:49:30.000 Appreciate it.

00:49:30.000 Sarah.

00:49:31.000 Talk to your doc.

00:49:32.000 You're going to trust your doc, no doubt about it.

00:49:34.000 Let's now turn to Queensland's new COVID alert.

00:49:36.000 People are being asked to mask up.

00:49:38.000 Masking them again.

00:49:39.000 They're getting masked all over the place.

00:49:41.000 Nah, man.

00:49:42.000 I want to see some crows.

00:49:43.000 I want to see crows demonstrating that they understand water displacement.

00:49:47.000 Right now, and so do you, because you all voted number three.

00:49:51.000 Have you seen this video of a crow understanding water displacement?

00:49:54.000 No, I haven't, but by God, I want to.

00:49:57.000 That's what you voted for.

00:49:58.000 That's what you get.

00:50:00.000 No manipulation of democracy here.

00:50:02.000 No 40 Dominion voting machines here.

00:50:04.000 You cast the ballot.

00:50:05.000 That ballot matters.

00:50:06.000 Here's some crows. 0.99

00:50:11.000 It really is understanding it.

00:50:12.000 It's putting those in and it gets a little drink.

00:50:16.000 What a clever... Oh, that's so lovely, isn't it?

00:50:19.000 What a beautiful, intelligent bird.

00:50:23.000 Maybe we need to pay attention to these kind of details.

00:50:26.000 The gentle beauty of the world.

00:50:28.000 A crow understanding water displacement.

00:50:31.000 Helps us, doesn't it?

00:50:32.000 Helps us to go, no, hold on a minute.

00:50:34.000 We've lost our connection to nature.

00:50:36.000 And our inner thread of divine beauty that connects us to one another and to the universe.

00:50:41.000 We've become trapped in our individual identity, and that's what makes us malleable.

00:50:46.000 If we were just to awaken to the great glory within ourselves, we would be free.

00:50:50.000 We've allowed them to fill us up with hate.

00:50:52.000 Digitokano Hippie says crows do smart stuff than us.

00:50:57.000 Crows for Biden, someone posted.

00:51:00.000 Like Jones for Jones, like when they fart.

00:51:02.000 Beautiful.

00:51:03.000 But I have to show you now that story.

00:51:07.000 Let's have a look at this mad... That's lovely.

00:51:09.000 Let's have a... Let's have a look at this... We got Hillary Clinton algorithm? 0.99

00:51:09.000 So cute. 0.99

00:51:13.000 242. Preach Russell! Thanks, I am preaching, I'm preaching baby, I'm testifying right now.

00:51:19.000 Let's have a look at this mad... that's lovely, that's so cute. Let's have a look at this...

00:51:27.000 have we got Hillary Clinton algorithm? Did we not show that? 0.97

00:51:30.000 We missed it slightly earlier.

00:51:31.000 Ah, did we?

00:51:33.000 Well, maybe.

00:51:35.000 Do you want to see Hillary Clinton or do you want to learn about this person in Congress or the Senate who's been getting into dogfighting?

00:51:42.000 I just want to cover it.

00:51:43.000 Oh no.

00:51:44.000 Wait, no you don't.

00:51:45.000 Where is dogfighting guy?

00:51:48.000 This is from Carl and Sandy, Pentagon official charged with participating in dogfighting ring.

00:51:54.000 That's the nice dog.

00:51:55.000 There was just a trial in Brooklyn.

00:51:57.000 Don't you dare make a joke about that.

00:51:59.000 That's Hillary Clinton, she's trying her best. 0.99

00:52:01.000 Now, let's have a... What's that for?

00:52:04.000 Frederick Douglas Moorfield, Pentagon official, charged.

00:52:07.000 He's a Pentagon official, that's what he is.

00:52:09.000 Oh, well, mind you, war is his business. 0.51

00:52:12.000 And it's also his hobby.

00:52:13.000 Frederick Douglas Moorfield, Jr., 62, of Arnold... I don't know what MD is, you tell me in the chat.

00:52:19.000 Was a Deputy Chief Information Officer for Command, Control and Communications for the Secretary of Defense Chief Information... Oh God, that's a boring job.

00:52:25.000 He was arrested for a charge of promoting and furthering an animal fighting venture, along with a longtime friend who allegedly admitted his participation in dogfighting, Mario Diefleib.

00:52:35.000 There he is, a Pentagon official involved in dogfighting.

00:52:39.000 What's up with us?

00:52:41.000 Can we do better than that?

00:52:43.000 Can we improve on Pentagon officials that are into dogfights?

00:52:46.000 I sincerely hope so, guys.

00:52:49.000 Dogs of War Unleashed says more in the chat.

00:52:53.000 So, do you want to see the rest of that Hillary thing? 1.00

00:52:56.000 And what about interviewing Rainer Fulmich?

00:52:59.000 Who is Rainer Fulmich?

00:53:01.000 Someone said that in the chat.

00:53:02.000 I will do.

00:53:04.000 Hey, let's have a look at the rest of Hillary talking about Douglas Mackey. 0.95

00:53:09.000 Let's have a look at this.

00:53:11.000 I pressed the wrong button earlier.

00:53:12.000 There was just a trial in Brooklyn where a guy who had been one of the main... I guess he was one of the main people running memes against me in 2016.

00:53:25.000 He went from what you could consider free speech.

00:53:28.000 I mean, both Nancy and I have pretty thick skins.

00:53:30.000 People say all kinds of things about us.

00:53:33.000 Aw, she knows about it.

00:53:34.000 But he went from that to running a- Doesn't bother me.

00:53:38.000 Doesn't bother me what they say.

00:53:40.000 Very deliberate effort to mislead people about where and how to vote.

00:53:46.000 Very deliberate.

00:53:47.000 Did you see what Douglas Mackey did?

00:53:48.000 It was like some sort of dopey meme saying text this number to vote for Hillary.

00:53:52.000 There were other people doing sort of Trump ones.

00:53:54.000 It was basically not a crime against democracy.

00:53:59.000 What's a crime against democracy is I suppose the whole Russia gate hoax, the Steele dossier funded by the Clinton campaign or the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story.

00:54:10.000 So many actual crimes.

00:54:12.000 So it went from speech to action meant to subvert the election because thousands of people who they targeted through their algorithms.

00:54:22.000 They targeted them through their algorithms.

00:54:26.000 Oh, I can text my vote for Hillary Clinton.

00:54:29.000 So Hillary Clinton, I want to deconstruct that in some greater detail in a minute, but Hillary Clinton apparently took that very seriously. 0.99

00:54:37.000 You were using, quote, algorithms to subvert the election with that meme.

00:54:44.000 I don't even really know what she means by that.

00:54:50.000 What's worse is Douglas Mackey posting that meme on Nancy Pelosi's presumed insider trading.

00:54:59.000 You've seen, right, how often, you know, her husband makes big tech investments that are alarmingly successful.

00:55:06.000 I notice you, jiggly bits in the chat.

00:55:08.000 I notice you, says NoticeMeRussell, he or she.

00:55:11.000 I heard if you send $100 to the Prince of Nigeria, he'll vote for Hillary. 0.92

00:55:15.000 Tfunk.

00:55:16.000 Nice.

00:55:16.000 Nice joke.

00:55:18.000 So, yeah, there you go, guys.

00:55:20.000 What do you think?

00:55:21.000 Is it, like, what's less democratic?

00:55:24.000 Nancy Pelosi using her position within Congress to feed information presumably to Paul Pelosi, who then invests in the likes of, well, Alphabet or Amazon or Apple or whatever.

00:55:36.000 Or is it dear old Douglas Mackey posting harmless memes that... I don't think it matters if people post, like, memes about, like, Trump or Hillary Clinton.

00:55:48.000 What's more important?

00:55:49.000 Let me know in the chat, you lot.

00:55:52.000 Over in the Awaken Weather chat... Ooh, dawn one! 1.00

00:55:55.000 Nancy is a bitch sneaking around. 1.00

00:55:58.000 Sneaking around, I like that. 1.00

00:56:00.000 Nancy Pelosi, there's a unanimous condemnation of the crisis within systemic democracy, the inability of ordinary people to have any real access.

00:56:11.000 I'll tell you what, can we show the trailer?

00:56:12.000 Have we got the trailer?

00:56:13.000 Because...

00:56:15.000 Tomorrow, on the show, we've got Alex Jones.

00:56:18.000 Round one.

00:56:19.000 We're going to be talking to Alex about predictions he made that came true.

00:56:22.000 We're going to be talking to him about why independent voices get targeted.

00:56:25.000 And was Alex Jones the first of those voices that got targeted?

00:56:29.000 We talk about the mistakes Alex Jones has made.

00:56:31.000 All of us have made mistakes.

00:56:32.000 Everyone's made mistakes.

00:56:34.000 But we talk about Rogan and Tucker.

00:56:35.000 We talk about prophecies and mysticism.

00:56:38.000 You will love it.

00:56:40.000 Do we have a trailer for it?

00:56:41.000 Okay, well I'd love to show you that and we're going to do an extra 15 minutes over on Locals if you want to join us for that.

00:56:51.000 A lot of you are extremely impressed by the crows.

00:56:55.000 I think that crow, you want to see David Icke?

00:56:57.000 You want to see David Icke?

00:56:58.000 Is that what you want?

00:57:00.000 Well, let's see, let's see if we can get him.

00:57:02.000 Thank you for your efforts. 0.97

00:57:03.000 The left is psychotic.

00:57:05.000 I tell you what, I think what we have to do here in this chat, in this little forum, is we have to get beyond the divisions of left and right.

00:57:11.000 We have to acknowledge that there is a requirement for an independent movement, that we have to be willing to form alliances with people that have different cultural views than us.

00:57:20.000 We have to make democracy local.

00:57:22.000 We have to explore the principle of subsidiarity.

00:57:25.000 That means localizing power, creating true democracy, where centralized authority is limited and confronted and ultimately brought down.

00:57:36.000 Uh, hey, so, yeah, we've got, uh, that's my dog.

00:57:40.000 Come over here.

00:57:40.000 What's the matter?

00:57:41.000 Why are you doing that?

00:57:42.000 Come see me.

00:57:44.000 There.

00:57:45.000 Come over.

00:57:46.000 Come here.

00:57:47.000 What's the matter?

00:57:48.000 What are you complaining for?

00:57:49.000 What's the matter?

00:57:50.000 Come here.

00:57:50.000 At least be on camera if you're going to cause all this trouble.

00:57:53.000 Come here.

00:57:54.000 Come here.

00:57:56.000 Good boy.

00:57:57.000 Isn't he a beautiful animal?

00:57:59.000 So listen, you guys.

00:58:00.000 Do you have a trailer?

00:58:01.000 If it's not there now, then it's too late.

00:58:03.000 All right, listen.

00:58:04.000 We're going to go over to locals now, you guys.

00:58:08.000 All you've got to do It's ready.

00:58:10.000 Let's have a look at the trailer for tomorrow's show for Alex Jones.

00:58:13.000 A little taste of what's coming up.

00:58:15.000 You'll enjoy this.

00:58:16.000 Let's have a look.

00:58:29.000 will commence again if you try to take our firearms.

00:58:32.000 Come on! 0.61

00:58:33.000 I wonder if you ever feel fracture and crisis within yourself.

00:58:43.000 I wonder if you've ever felt hopeless and desperate.

00:58:48.000 God touched me and said, you really want to be evil?

00:58:50.000 And I had a lot of really intense nightmares and just a feeling of being alone.

00:58:57.000 But this and that is going to happen.

00:58:59.000 You're going to go through a lot of pain to do it, but you're going to help trigger the great awakening. 1.00

00:59:04.000 Piles of manipulative, lying crap! 1.00

00:59:08.000 To cowards! 1.00

00:59:10.000 Excuse me. 0.98

00:59:10.000 What do we do about the people that hear the name Alex Jones and then just think, oh, you know, Sandy Hook. 0.98

00:59:16.000 I can't imagine it's very easy to be you.

00:59:18.000 I didn't say that the name Sandy Hook for over two years before I was sued.

00:59:23.000 Do you feel that you arm your detractors by your mystical conjecture?

00:59:29.000 Or is that something you're deliberately doing in spite of the fact that it obviously enables people to attack you?

00:59:34.000 They were all obsessed with mysticism.

00:59:36.000 They were all obsessed with the occult, the CIA, MI6.

00:59:40.000 But this is why the CIA and the Justice Department used me as the first domino.

00:59:44.000 We're gonna get Assange and Jones.

00:59:45.000 Once we get them, all the other dominoes will fall.

00:59:47.000 That was six months before I got deplatformed five years ago.

00:59:50.000 What are we gonna do?

00:59:51.000 There is so much power that can be asserted through legacy media.

00:59:55.000 There is so much power of censorship.

00:59:57.000 There is such a strong will to shut down dissent.

01:00:00.000 You see it because we have nothing to hide.

01:00:03.000 Move your angle, relax your perspective, pull back, open your mind. 1.00

01:00:07.000 I wonder if you've ever been concerned that you are mentally ill. 0.98

01:00:14.000 It's a brilliant... It's a brilliant conversation.

01:00:17.000 It's happening tomorrow.

01:00:18.000 You're gonna love it.

01:00:19.000 He's a good dog, he's eight.

01:00:21.000 Alex, listen, why are you doing this to us?

01:00:23.000 Why are you causing these problems on our show?

01:00:24.000 This is about free speech.

01:00:26.000 It's not about free barking.

01:00:27.000 We only like free speech that we agree with.

01:00:30.000 Be a good boy.

01:00:31.000 Why are you like this?

01:00:33.000 Alex Jones.

01:00:34.000 Tomorrow.

01:00:35.000 Also, if you become an Awakened One, some of you are saying you need a monthly option for financial reasons.

01:00:39.000 Listen, we'll have to work out a version of this.

01:00:42.000 If it's difficult for you financially, we'll work out a deal.

01:00:45.000 We'll work out a deal.

01:00:46.000 It's more important that we have you in our community than we have your money.

01:00:50.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:00:51.000 Why are you suppressing Bear?

01:00:52.000 You're right, Mama Bear 2501.

01:00:53.000 He must not be oppressed.

01:00:55.000 Let's let him talk freely.

01:00:57.000 Listen, we're going to do an extra 10 minutes over in Locals.

01:01:00.000 Press the red button.

01:01:01.000 There's a red button on your screen.

01:01:03.000 Join us over there.

01:01:04.000 Become a member of our community.

01:01:05.000 Become a supporter like Olive Greensky, Josh27, Fay2050.

01:01:09.000 Muscle man!

01:01:11.000 Then, tomorrow, join us for round one of Alex Jones.

01:01:16.000 It's beautiful.

01:01:17.000 It's intense.

01:01:18.000 It's insane.

01:01:19.000 It's deep.

01:01:20.000 It's just like you, really.

01:01:22.000 It's a beautiful opportunity to awaken.

01:01:25.000 To see that there are new worlds waiting to be born from our imagination.

01:01:29.000 All things that are manifest are once in the unmanifest.

01:01:31.000 Become a firewalker with me.

01:01:33.000 Do not let them control you.

01:01:34.000 Do not let them limit, control and prohibit you.

01:01:38.000 He doesn't need the bathroom.

01:01:38.000 I'm going.

01:01:39.000 The dog does not need the bathroom.

01:01:40.000 He just wants treats.

01:01:41.000 He's getting out of control.

01:01:42.000 Listen, I love you.

01:01:43.000 I'll see you in a second over on Locals.
