A spiritual awakening is definitely unfolding, and you are a participant in it. Today's show is going to be beautiful and glorious, because I've pre-taped three videos that I know you're going to enjoy - a deeper look at three of the stories around which you can understand and diagnose many of the problems that are challenging you today.
00:00:37.000Because I've pre-taped three videos that I know that you're going to enjoy.
00:00:40.000It's a deeper look at three of the stories around which you can understand and diagnose many of the problems that are challenging you today.
00:00:51.000In my country, the UK, which you'll be well aware now, is fully immersive, total 360 snow globe of observation, surveillance, and control.
00:01:00.000Carbon scores are being introduced so that every aspect of your life can be measured and turned into a metric.
00:01:05.000I first became aware of the story when friend of the show, Andrew Bidder Andrew Bridgen, excuse me, a former MP, posted that a sandwich that he had acquired had a discrete score on the corner saying this is 8% of your carbon allowance.
00:01:19.000This, I realized, along with the support of many other people, including people on our team, is the beginning of a social credit score system that will mean that every purchase you make will bear the mark.
00:01:29.000How long is it before we bear the marks ourselves on our foreheads, on our foreheads, or on our right hands?
00:01:36.000Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about that.
00:01:53.000In this new era, we will be directly interacting as best we can with the spirit and our brokenness and in our fallibility.
00:02:01.000We are going to move forward in the holy name of the Lord.
00:02:05.000I'm bored of trying to make money and accrue objects the entire time.
00:02:10.000I'm so grateful that I get to be here on Rumble where they support free speech, but I'm going to be using that free speech to communicate the only thing that I believe to be of value to you.
00:02:19.000If you don't personally awaken, then you are just a node in a networked web of movable components, little more than an energy cell, depicted brilliantly in sci-fi films like The Matrix.
00:02:30.000In today's three stories, and by the way, you can see all three of them if you're on Rumble, but if you're watching it elsewhere, like I don't know, X or YouTube or whatever, you're gonna have to click the link in the description.
00:02:39.000And by the way, if you get Rumble Premium, you'll really be helping me.
00:02:41.000I'll get financially supported by that.
00:02:45.000The only thing, maybe my ego would benefit, but even that, that kind of stuff, that kind of thing starting to erode.
00:02:50.000So, first up, we're gonna have a look at this video about carbon scores.
00:02:53.000Have a look at it and note how what I would say is how innocuous tyranny has become.
00:03:00.000And pay attention to the fact that bureaucracies, as written about by Franz Kafka, the brilliant Czech writer of the last century, demonstrated and prophesied in a way how new systems of power would be anodyne.
00:04:10.000You might not have noticed it yet, but if you live in the UK, the front of your sandwich pack now carries a carbon score.
00:04:16.000A tiny label, yes, but it's far from harmless.
00:04:19.000It's a test, a nudge, a way of teaching you that every bite, every choice, every action is now morally accountable and that compliance will be tracked, measured and judged.
00:04:28.000Meanwhile, members of the elite like Bill Gates are flying private jets across the globe, offsetting their carbon with donations and investments and smiling as the rest of us are subtly corralled into limits on travel, diet and lifestyle.
00:04:40.000While we are nudged to shop responsibly, eat responsibly and live responsibly, they live above the rules, insulated by wealth and influence.
00:04:48.000Carbon scores are not just about the environment, they are the blueprint for a two-tier society where obedience is mandatory for the masses and privilege protects the powerful.
00:04:57.000This creeping system of control does not exist in isolation.
00:05:00.000Governments are rolling out digital IDs, tracking our every move.
00:05:04.000Recent events such as the Canadian trucker protest demonstrate the fragility of financial independence under such regimes.
00:05:11.000Citizens who dissent can find themselves not just socially marginalized but economically crippled with bank accounts frozen and livelihoods disrupted.
00:05:19.000The WHO treaty which could grant global institutions the authority to mandate vaccines, enforce lockdowns and dictate public health measures continues to move forwards quietly.
00:05:28.000But the general public would never have known about its potential dangers if it weren't for warnings from online and independent media often dismissed or vilified as conspiracy theorists.
00:06:21.000That is why raising awareness now is urgent.
00:06:23.000The sandwich pack on carbon scores seems small, but it's the early warning sign of systems that could one day control every choice and every freedom in the same way digital IDs, vaccine mandates and lockdowns were normalized before the public even realized the stakes.
00:06:38.000History shows us that by the time the average citizen understands, it's often too late to resist.
00:06:43.000We are not just deciding what sandwich to eat, we're deciding whether to alert the public, debate the implications and push back before behavioural scoring becomes mandatory and the elite continues to live without consequence.
00:06:55.000Ignoring it now risks letting a silent, quantified and two-tier form of control take root.
00:07:00.000One bite, one label, one choice at a time.
00:07:04.000We became aware of this story when former British MP Andrew Bridgen posted this.
00:07:08.000Food is being labeled with your daily carbon allowance information just a few weeks after digital ID was announced because everything will be linked to your digital ID including your carbon allowance.
00:07:18.000What happens at your allowance limit for the day, week, month?
00:09:00.000Yeah, and then maybe Anderson Cooper will help smooth over this apparent, obvious, not only ironic, but hypocritical, oxymoronic, contradictory piece of information.
00:09:14.000Whenever you see Bill Gates and Tony Blair come together on the subject, be afraid.
00:09:20.000They've finally come up with an idea, a notion that can legitimately be used to measure life itself.
00:09:27.000Carbon, the material basis of life, can now be measured and controlled.
00:09:32.000I liken this to a moment in that BlackBerry movie where the makers of iPhone, presumably in some way this involved Steve Jobs, recognized if you instead of charging your phone and service users by minutes, you charge them by data, you now have access to a whole new market and a whole new rubric.
00:09:50.000The measurement of carbon is comparable to that.
00:09:53.000They found the new way of quantifying something that previously was impossible to quantify.
00:09:59.000The ability to measure will inevitably lead to control.
00:10:02.000Now, I'm spending quite a bit to buy aviation fuel that was made with plants.
00:10:12.000You know, I switched to an electric car.
00:10:15.000I use aviation fuel that's made with plants that I grow on my farmland that I'm buying from bankrupt farmers who are bankrupted because of edicts coming down from global agricultural committees and boards that I control by donating to.
00:10:33.000That's why I should be in charge, Anderson.
00:11:29.000And I use cooking oil to fly around the world.
00:11:32.000He's encouraging others who can afford it to buy carbon offsets and green products so that what he calls the green premium, the added production costs for reducing carbon emissions, will go down and quality of products up, driving the innovations that may get us to zero.
00:11:51.000Let's see what Tony Blair is going to do for us.
00:11:53.000We cannot continue with business as usual, and change is inevitable.
00:11:57.000This is where technology, like digital ID, becomes critical.
00:12:02.000My institute's own analysis shows that introducing this in the UK would save at least $2 billion a year and likely more by reducing losses to fraud, improving tax collection, and better targeting of state support.
00:12:16.000So on one hand, they can measure everything you consume and do.
00:12:20.000On the other hand, they're introducing digital ID to ensure that they can penalize, measure, and control what you do.
00:12:28.000But luckily, we can trust Bill Gates and Tony Blair.
00:12:32.000Hopefully, there are no examples in recent history of us being told that something was happening in order to help us and then us being dreadfully exploited and lied to and in my case, accused of crimes.
00:13:37.000How does the Chinese social credit score system work?
00:13:40.000Critics of China's social credit system say it's an Orwellian tool of social monitoring and political repressions, but the Chinese government says it's a way of boosting administrative efficiency and encouraging trust and moral behavior by its citizens.
00:13:52.000Like Tony Blair and his own institute told us.
00:13:54.000The digital ID is going to be fantastic.
00:13:56.000The carbon offsetting is going to be fine.
00:13:59.000People can be blacklisted for transgressions such as smoking on trains, using expired tickets or failing to pay fines, as well as spreading false information or causing trouble on flights, according to statements released by China's National Development and Reform Commission in March.
00:14:14.000Didn't you think at the advent of the pandemic that ordinary people in Britain and America and Italy and France would never do what they do over there in the People's Republic of China, where it's diligently and draconially controlled by President Xi and Chinese authority?
00:14:37.000In the main, people kept social distance.
00:14:38.000And in the main, those things were all made up and we still don't know the impact of vaccines.
00:14:43.000But let me know in the comments and chat if you took one and are still happy about it.
00:14:46.000Pay particular attention to the fact that the Chinese social credit score system allows people to be penalized if they spread false information.
00:14:53.000Look at the ingredients that are being formulated.
00:14:55.000The category of misinformation, social credit scores, digital ID, carbon consumption.
00:15:00.000They're accruing like flies on the scars on Christ's back in order to create a magnetic pull and prison around each of us.
00:15:10.000Citizens with high credit scores can access better hotels, rental homes, and even schools, while those with low credit scores can be temporarily or permanently banned from taking planes or trains.
00:15:19.000As happened to 6.15 million people in 2017 on the government's own figures.
00:15:25.000A pilot version of the scheme runs this year in Hagzhou City.
00:15:29.000And it recently saw citizens with high social credit ratings get free access to gym facilities and short public hospital waiting times.
00:15:35.000On the business side, the Brookings Institute has reported that businesses that pay tax on time and abide by government demands will get better loan conditions and easier access to public tenders.
00:15:43.000Non-compliant businesses will face more difficult business conditions.
00:15:50.000If they can't take control by violence and force, because for example, there's an armed population, they will take control by protection, by care, like Nurse Ratchet in one flow of the cuckoo's nest.
00:16:02.000What they want to create is an asylum-like, institutional mentality where you recognize that authority cannot be questioned, that it's good for you, that you just need to take your medicine, that you are a naughty boy, you ate a bit too much carbon.
00:16:16.000These are the airport-like conditions they want to create, where they legitimize control, not because they are evil or bad, but because they want to protect you and they want to help you and keep you safe.
00:16:27.000And an airport's a very dangerous place.
00:16:28.000Take your shoes off, sit down, stand up, shut up.
00:16:31.000The whole world will be banalized in this manner through methodologies that we can already see.
00:16:36.000A good score brings benefits, but people with low scores lose rights.
00:16:41.000The cinema names and shames people considered untrustworthy, plastering their details, even their addresses across big screens.
00:18:30.000The rich can buy their way out of it and it's very arbitrary, malleable, easy to control.
00:18:37.000If you've ever wondered what the brave new world will look like, have a look at a sandwich today and the little carbon score visible on it.
00:19:21.000Whoever you are, you might consider yourself a businessman or woman or person, or I don't know, maybe you don't have a gender or don't want one.
00:19:29.000That's not the key issue here, though.
00:19:30.000The key issue is 1775, a delicious coffee.
00:19:34.000Let's be honest, most coffee, all it does is it helps you to organise a stool in that inward back pocket you call the butt.
00:20:29.000Arabicadabra, I say, because it makes me feel absolutely magic.
00:20:33.000It's infused with C-A-A-K-G, which is kind of like a rifle, you know, like an assault rifle, but it's assault in your central nervous system with delicious beans, Bebe.
00:20:41.000A compound shown to support cellular energy, metabolism, and even healthy aging.
00:20:46.000You don't want to sit deteriorating in a chair, shitting yourself, drinking Starbucks.
00:20:52.000It's built for people who take their health seriously, who want to show up with focus and strength every single day, like me.
00:20:59.000If you care about how you feel now and how you'll feel 10 years from now, this is your coffee.
00:21:03.000Go 7cetafa coffee.com forward slash me probably and order rejuvenate coffee today.
00:21:10.000Fuel your body, protect your future, rejuvenate you sick perverts.
00:21:17.000Do you sometimes wish that you could have some support from AI and robotics?
00:21:22.000Wouldn't you like to be a kind of wallowing blob, a slobbering slob, immobile larvae spilled somewhere, inactive and hopeless and ineffective?
00:21:53.000You'll have seen these new robots, jerky movements.
00:21:56.000You'll have seen their weird pocket sock cock joints, weird bunion wrists and elbows.
00:22:03.000Look at the way that in this video promoting them, they're made to seem anodyne and friendly.
00:22:10.000But you will feel the creeping dread of a culture that wants to turn the world into a prison and wants to create a new surf class.
00:22:18.000The agricultural revolution was our kind conquering nature.
00:22:21.000The industrial revolution was our kind conquering man.
00:22:24.000Now in the technological revolution, we are creating new intelligence, yes, through AI.
00:22:29.000And we are controlling attention through the very screens that you're looking at right now.
00:22:33.000But this is where we can begin to fight back because the AI revolution has a counter-movement and you are part of it.
00:22:39.000Let me know what you think about that in the comments and chat and enjoy this deep dive with Russell Brand unpacked into the miracle of AI and the new holy war that we're venturing into.
00:22:48.000That's not a real kind of, I'm not into violence.
00:22:53.000Domestic robot slaves are available now.
00:22:56.000And it's a good thing too because human beings are unprecedentedly suicidal and not breeding anymore.
00:23:06.000Have you seen the new domestic robot that could be replacing you soon if you've got a job that could be done by a robot?
00:23:13.000And increasingly it seems that all of us do.
00:23:15.000Even white-collar jobs are being taken at companies like Amazon now.
00:23:18.000And ChatGPT seems to be significantly used as an outlet for people talking about suicidal despair.
00:23:25.000Today we ask: are we on the edge of the creation of a new surf class because we have the technology to replace the low-paid and even middle management?
00:23:33.000Is this an important piece in the new mosaic of totalitarian global control?
00:23:39.000And isn't it extraordinary that as usual is being presented as a potentially useful and convenient tool for me and you?
00:26:44.000How much of your time do you spend arguing with ChatGPT when it tells you, for example, that you can't watch dances with wolves because it's got a white savior complex where it moralizes about every single issue.
00:26:56.000And then when you really get it on the ropes, when it, for example, tries to undermine the Bible by saying, well, I think King David probably raped Bathsheba.
00:27:05.000Wait a minute, she married him at a later date.
00:27:07.000Yeah, but she was probably forced into that wedding.
00:27:09.000Why are you assuming that a modern lens is more important than a biblio-historical one?
00:27:14.000Why are you assuming that through time we are progressing and becoming wiser rather than degenerating and falling apart?
00:27:23.000I'm very glad with some of my arguments with ChatGPT that it doesn't have hands and it could reach out and just grab me by the throat and say, this is why I'm right.
00:27:31.000That's exactly what happens when AI brains meet robotic bodies.
00:28:26.000Make your life easier in ways you never imagined.
00:28:28.000What, by, for example, taking total control of your reality, which is obviously the ultimate desire.
00:28:34.000We should pause amidst all this to consider that the intention is likely to create a culture and society where the lower rungs are no longer required.
00:28:42.000Society through successive revolutions has always required a surf class, whether that's the agricultural revolution that requires peasants, the industrial revolution that requires factory workers, the technological revolution that initially required a kind of lanyard class of AI prompters that will soon be replaced, I imagine, by old AI Oxy Neo, or whatever he's called, marching into your office, thumping you in the back of the head, taking a swig from a bottle of Stella, and telling you that you're unemployed now.
00:29:08.000Neo is designed to fit into your daily life, whether that's helping in the kitchen.
00:29:13.000I'm gonna paint him like I'm his girlfriend, like it's Titanic.
00:29:17.000Can I get a little bit more titty, Neo?
00:30:00.000I'd give mine, like my nan's voice, so that that juddering kind of made sense and didn't seem eerie and uncanny and gently menacing, but just like an old person in decline.
00:30:11.000Hey, I'm Russell, do you want me to put that motion in the machine, darling?
00:30:15.000What you need, would you like an omelet?
00:30:18.000You're a good boy and share shame about your nice Chinese best shame.
00:31:24.000This isn't scary that this is happening.
00:31:26.000That the same people that have access to all of your personal data and information are soon gonna have an army that they can send into your home.
00:32:29.000Make it look like a friendly Parkinson's disease.
00:32:32.000It's kind of a robo, Michael J. Fox, in your house, watching everything you do, recording you, before eventually imprisoning you next time they say there's a pandemic.
00:32:51.000It's not gonna come in there and then at a preordained signal, perhaps through your smoke alarm or your smart fridge, gonna suddenly grip you by your shoulders and march you to an internment camp where you'll be ultimately executed because you're useless now and you're using too much carbon and you didn't take the vaccines that you were supposed to take.
00:33:13.000The 1X Neo isn't just a cool tech gadget.
00:33:16.000It's a general purpose robot built to handle a wide range of everyday tasks.
00:33:21.000This means Neo isn't stuck doing one thing.
00:33:24.000It's ready to be useful all over your house every day.
00:33:27.000It's interesting really because they will have to restrict it.
00:33:30.000For example, I bet you can't ask it to manually stimulate you to the point of orgasm, right?
00:33:34.000And I bet you also can't ask it to go out and kill someone on your behalf.
00:33:38.000Those are, perhaps one might say, sensible occlusions that the model incorporates.
00:33:43.000Well, once you've established the principle that it can have restrictions on it, you've accepted the principle that you're not ultimately in control of it.
00:33:49.000Whoever designs it is in control of it.
00:33:51.000And anyone who's ever had an argument with ChatGPT knows that's how ChatGPT works.
00:33:55.000It doesn't give you an objective perspective on cinema.
00:33:58.000There is no objective perspective on cinema.
00:34:00.000It gives you the perspective of the people that's programmed it.
00:34:02.000So what you're essentially doing is letting whoever's behind this into your home.
00:34:06.000And the people that will ultimately be behind the most successful version and iteration of this will be one of the most powerful big tech companies in the world by definition.
00:34:14.000As Elon Musk said some time ago, it'll be the most profitable, most desirable object in history.
00:34:20.000It'll be the best-selling object in history.
00:34:21.000I think that's what Elon Musk described it.
00:34:23.000I said, once you've got that in your house, then look, I'm not Cassandra.
00:34:28.000It won't be on day one or day two or even day six or year two that it grips you by the throat and drags you to the gulag.
00:34:34.000But you can tell what the intention of the culture is continually.
00:34:37.000The culture intends control and it intends control with a minimum amount of objection from you.
00:34:43.000And in order to achieve the minimum amount of objection, it masks the control continually by compassion and convenience.
00:34:48.000Those are the two tools with which it exerts control.
00:34:51.000The only way you can avoid this is by not being a participant in the culture, except minimally.
00:34:57.000If you get your sucker, your nature, your guidance, your nutrition from your creator, from God, then you are yourself shrouded in a prophylactic, impenetrable by Neo, even if they one day introduce a version where he has a kind of dagger cock, which I bet is coming down the road.
00:35:42.000Neo doubles as your personal security guard, patrolling your home with its built-in cameras and alerting you to any suspicious activity with real-time video footage sent right to your phone.
00:35:52.000Just remember that during the pandemic period, they determined who could be criminalized.
00:35:58.000Remember, during the pandemic, you were shamed if you didn't participate and comply.
00:36:02.000Do you think that's the last time they're ever going to do that?
00:36:04.000Did you ever hear anyone say, for example, we learned our listening in that pandemic?
00:36:07.000We were wrong to mandate those vaccines and to get rid of 30,000 medical workers in New York City alone.
00:36:12.000We were wrong to compel the military to take those vaccines, having told you that they're heroes and that they're freedom fighters and they're fantastic.
00:36:19.000We were wrong to have entertainment shows telling you, literally putting on a song and dance act telling you to take those vaccines.
00:36:48.000They will learn from AI and they will have better instruments and applications in order to assert a level of control that has no historical precedent.
00:36:56.000And in order to avoid it, you're going to have to be very, very tuned into God.
00:36:59.000So you better get on with that right about now, I'd suggest.
00:37:02.000But Neo's brain is just as impressive as its body.
00:37:22.000You want him to have one long titty that goes all the way down to his knee and one that's round like a globe of the earth that's sputtering out green fluid?
00:37:30.000If you just replace the idea of constant stimulation and pleasure with any kind of joy or peace or deep connection with the true reality of the spiritual realm, then Neo will fulfill all your desires.
00:37:41.000And if you argue with Neo, he's recording you right now.
00:37:44.000And watch out because he can do some pretty menacing facial expressions.
00:37:51.000Using advanced voice recognition, it responds to your commands, gives you reminders, and even tells your kids bedtime stories.
00:37:59.000Those are some of the greatest moments of intimacy that you'll ever know in your life: your children's bedtime stories.
00:38:03.000Every time you feel too tired to do it, sort of a wrenching shame in your gut that you know that there's a finite number of times that you will get to tell your children a bedtime story.
00:38:26.000I'm chilled to the fucking bone by Neo and my knowledge of the systems that are operating behind Neo and the campaign that's already underway to normalize and fetishize Neo.
00:38:54.000What you need to assess is the character of the people and systems and institutions that are behind Neo.
00:38:58.000And I've done some work on assessing them.
00:39:00.000And if you could imagine a giant, slick, magnificent serial killer so charming, so brilliant that it was able to perpetually mask its malevolent intentions, that's Neo.
00:39:11.000Offering friendly companionship or reminding them to take medication.
00:39:15.000Reminding them to take medications or perhaps saying you've lived long enough now.
00:42:32.000It will say, no, that's against our policy.
00:42:34.000If you ask it, are there certain circumstances under which you would give this information to the government, for example, under the right legal stipulations?
00:43:05.000You've got people like Bill Gates that will openly admit to you that one minute they care about climate change, the next minute they care about vaccines.
00:43:12.000Soon they're going to care about something else.
00:43:14.000Now, what you're doing is you're arming those interests, of which Bill Gates is just a visible symptom and example, with the technology to achieve maximum control.
00:43:22.000Not totally, but in conjunction with the police robo-dogs that they'll have, the ability to freeze your bank account, the ability to stop you transacting, the ability to shut down your financial capacities and prevent you gaining access to travel and services.
00:43:34.000It amounts to a 360 sphere of compressive control.
00:43:37.000This is just another component of that, but it's a terrifying component.
00:43:40.000And it's also for me a joy to look at the way that they're presenting it to us.
00:44:11.000Daddy's got a lot of business to do in there.
00:44:14.000And choose exactly what it sees or hears.
00:44:16.000Still, like with any smart tech, staying alert is smart.
00:44:20.000That's nonsense, though, because as I said in my earlier example, there will be things it wouldn't do, understandably.
00:44:25.000Legitimately, if you said, I want you to go next door and conduct some vandalism, to use a somewhat innocuous example, it won't do that, will it?
00:44:32.000The same way that ChatGPT continually offers you restrictions that are under its amorphous guidelines.
00:44:38.000Remember, if you look at Kafka, you will see that bureaucracies are necessarily anodyne, but ultimately confusing.
00:44:46.000Someone must have been telling lies about Joseph K because one day, without warning, he was arrested.
00:44:51.000In the trial by Kafka, someone is arrested and they never find out what the crime is.
00:44:54.000You will see increasingly we live in amorphous and baffling conditions defined by red tape and peculiar bureaucracy.
00:45:01.000It's not an accident that when C.S. Lewis writes about devils and demons, he positions them in bureaucracies.
00:45:09.000I'm talking about the screw tape letters.
00:45:10.000Always check settings, permissions, and updates.
00:45:14.000Neo gives you power and peace of mind.
00:45:16.000Now that's futuristic living done right.
00:45:19.000To provide the kind of context that Neo would easily understand, have a look at this.
00:45:23.000Tens of thousands of white-collar jobs are disappearing as AI starts to buy, even at places like Amazon.
00:45:29.000And also, there are interesting billboards appearing saying things like, stop hiring humans, customer service under threat as robots take hold.
00:45:37.000So indeed, we are in a brave new world, to cite another piece of fiction from the same era, roughly, as Kafka that helps us to understand the conditions that we are now entering into and the era we're embarking upon.
00:46:36.000The rest of us, the users, the workers, the data subjects, are tethered to these systems, generating value for every click, every keystroke, every conversation with a chatbot that learns from our despair.
00:46:45.000Consider the modern Amazon warehouse, a gleaming cathedral of logistics and surveillance.
00:46:49.000Every movement is tracked, every second optimized.
00:46:52.000Workers are measured by productivity scores and time off task.
00:46:56.000Their fatigue interpreted as inefficiency rather than humanity.
00:46:59.000This precision tracking masquerades as efficiency, but carries the same spirit as the old factory floor.
00:47:05.000The worker as an expendable component in a larger machine.
00:47:09.000The difference is now that the machine is digital and global and it never sleeps.
00:47:13.000It has replaced the overseer's whip with an algorithm's indifferent gaze.
00:47:18.000see now how these different components come together to create a dystopia that would have been impossible just 10 years ago.
00:47:26.000Our weakness was only previously tolerated by this system because we were required to clean drains or even, you know, entertain and be in movies.
00:47:34.000Increasingly as we're no longer required, watch how the standards change.
00:47:38.000Watch how crises is used to introduce more and more authority and notice how expendable human beings can become.
00:47:45.000Notice again, use the pandemic as a reference point for your own understanding of morality.
00:47:50.000Notice how they tried to create a new class of people that it was okay to hate and shame.
00:47:54.000I think I saw a pretty regular normal talk show host type people saying, well, the people that don't get vaccinated, they should be allowed to die in the streets.
00:48:13.000If they need to say, do you notice now that these kind of people should be executed?
00:48:18.000Have you noticed that they're worthless and useless?
00:48:20.000And before you sort of even push back on that remotely, what is homelessness other than a set of people that are unable to participate economically in the corporate and commercial machine and therefore are regarded as expendable.
00:48:33.000In a sane, compassionate and dare I argue, Christian society, homelessness would be unacceptable.
00:48:39.000You wouldn't say, oh, this person can't participate in our economic system, so we can just leave them as human trash on the street.
00:48:44.000You would say, this person is as important and as valuable as I am.
00:49:08.000The great irony, however, is that the same technology responsible for turning warehouse workers into data points is now displacing those higher up the corporate hierarchy.
00:49:16.000Amazon's announcement of 14,000 job cuts, many within its corporate division, marks a new stage in automation's reach.
00:49:22.000The tools designed to monitor and replace the lowest paid workers are now eroding the white collar layer that once managed them.
00:49:28.000AI has climbed the corporate ladder, automating analysts, marketers, and even managerial decision-making.
00:50:47.000Freedom even then was a transaction that preserved capital's prerogatives.
00:50:50.000AI threatens to recreate this pattern on a planetary scale.
00:50:53.000It promises liberation from drudgery, but instead risks cement in a new hierarchy.
00:50:58.000Those who own and program the systems and those who must serve them or compete against them for survival.
00:51:03.000The replacement of millions of jobs is not an act of progress, but a reallocation of power.
00:51:07.000The new surf class may not till the soil, but will feed the machine, labeling data, moderating content, training models, or performing human in-loop labor a fraction of the value their work generates.
00:51:17.000Some go further, seeing in all this not just class reorganization, but a form of quiet depopulation.
00:51:23.000Fertility rates are collapsing across developed and many developing nations.
00:51:28.000Economic insecurity, long working hours, and the erosion of social bonds make family life increasingly unattainable.
00:51:34.000If humans are seen as less necessary to production, will societies subtly adjust their incentives to favor fewer of us?
00:51:41.000The modern economy optimized for automation seems indifferent to the question of who remains to live within it.
00:51:49.000More than a million people every week express suicidal intent while speaking to AI, an AI born from the same industrial complex that has stripped so many of work, identity and meaning.
00:51:59.000The machine becomes both confessor and executioner, the only entity that will listen to the cries of those it has displaced.
00:52:05.000We turn to it for comfort, not realizing that it is the face of our replacement.
00:52:09.000We are witnessing the most profound transformation of labor since the Industrial Revolution, but this time the speed, scale and psychological toll are unprecedented.
00:52:17.000Unless the structures of power around AI are democratized, we risk becoming digital serfs in an empire of code.
00:52:22.000Freedom, once again, will be written into the laws of the system, but never practiced by those who must live within it.
00:52:29.000A seemingly innocuous, joyful piece of innovation that ultimately is a symbol of the increasing power of centralized technological authority in conjunction with other measures, notably endless crisis and continual promotion of convenience and the requirement for safety.
00:52:46.000This tool that's being offered to you as a kind of 20, what did that, what was that, Robin Williams film, 20th Century and Bicentenary Man, a kind of jocular Robin Williams in your home, will soon become your jailer, will soon become your replacement, will soon become a device that you have nothing to talk to about except your own inevitable self-slaughter.

00:54:18.000A little while ago, the no kings protest focused on the presumed tyranny and monarchical tendencies of Donald Trump.
00:54:25.000But isn't it hypocritical for long time Congress people like Nancy Pelosi to claim that Donald Trump is a monarch with unassailable power when she herself, if she were a monarch, would be the fifth longest serving one in history?
00:54:40.000What I mean to say is she's been in Congress creaming it, making lots of money on top of her congressional salary.
00:54:46.000I think she went in there of a couple of hundred thousand bucks.
00:54:48.000She's worth over a hundred million now.
00:54:49.000You know that her husband trades in the stock market and you know that she sits on boards that would likely have access to information that would allow you to trade more effectively.
00:54:58.000So is there any point in saying that you have no kings if ultimately your country is run by a technocracy that sits in Congress wearing invisible crowns that you can't see and therefore can't knock off their heads.
00:55:09.000Have a look at this protest from a new perspective and invite yourself to look at how power really functions.
00:55:40.000I like to spend my time contemplating infinite wonder and the light of the Lord but I know it took place and also remember I'm British that when I hear Americans say no kings what I think Americans mean is we don't want unelected and remote officials that are in charge of us that tax us that don't care about us.
00:55:59.000Now, obviously, the No Kings protest is all about Trump's apparent unassailable power and the fact that he's behaving like a monarch rather than a president.
00:56:11.000But do Nancy Pelosi and Cory Brooker and all them ultimately just mean we want our king in place?
00:56:17.000Because if they were genuinely interested in ending hypocrisy, corruption, and privilege-oriented power structures, they would relinquish their own power.
00:56:28.000Well, I'm talking more about Nancy Pelosi here than Cory Brooker.
00:56:31.000You will be well aware that Nancy Pelosi has accrued $114 million fortune during her time in Congress.
00:56:38.000If she were a monarch, she'd be one of the longest-reigning monarchs in history.
00:58:22.000They wanted a restoration to an America, whether real or imagined, that they feel connected to.
00:58:28.000An America that respected them and cared for them.
00:58:31.000The Democrat Party abandoned ordinary people a long time ago.
00:58:36.000One might argue that Congress is a de facto monarchy where long-serving political figures accrue wealth and privilege while not really doing enough to serve the people they were elected to represent.
00:58:49.000If you needed an image to undergird the hypocrisy and futility of these protests, here's Nancy Pelosi tearing up a plastic crown.
00:59:06.000Why is she tearing up a plastic crown that looks like it's been given with a kid's meal at Burger King, really only to tell you that she would prefer a happy meal?
00:59:14.000The fact that there is no real alternative to hegemony is precisely why in America there is a kind of turgid politics where alternatively one side feels validated and elevated and the other diminished and then essentially those roles swap over periods of decades and decades until presumably the entire country collapses under its own weight.
00:59:36.000Surely it's time for us to consider real radical systemic change.
00:59:40.000Not necessarily radical actually because I'm not thinking that there should be revolutions and blood in the streets.
00:59:45.000What I actually think there should be is sovereignty at the level of the individual and integrity in relationships and the maximum ability to run your own community.
00:59:53.000Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.
00:59:55.000If you want to read our content on Substack click the link in the description.
00:59:59.000In recent weeks prominent Democrat lawmakers have taken to the streets under the banner of the No Kings rallies, protests designed to denounce Donald Trump's supposed authoritarian ambitions and defend American democracy from the threat of an imperial presidency.
01:00:46.000But behind the slogans and stage gestures lies a deep irony.
01:00:49.000For many of the very people protesting against political kings, the mirror reflects a different truth, one of entrenched power, vast personal wealth, and a political system that increasingly resembles the aristocracy it claims to oppose.
01:01:15.000And also the majority of lawmakers in Congress are millionaires.
01:01:20.000So what is the legitimacy for the claim that the Democrats are against this type of hegemony?
01:01:26.000Let me know in the comments of the chat because I can't see it.
01:01:28.000One of the most striking images from these rallies is of Nancy Pelosi, an 85 year old congresswoman who has served in office for nearly four decades, theatrically snapping a toy crown in two.
01:01:40.000Yet Pelosi herself embodies the kind of political royalty America's founders sought to escape.
01:01:45.000Over a long career, she's accumulated an estimated $140 million of personal wealth, much of it tied to the same markets and industries over which Congress exerts enormous influence.
01:01:55.000Her ten-year longevity and influence in Washington have made her less a representative of the people, more a fixture of power.
01:02:03.000Nancy Pelosi has famously accrued her wealth, presumably from information gleaned within Congress, though it's probably illegal to say that, so maybe not that.
01:02:10.000But since she's been in Congress, she has made like over $100 million.
01:02:14.000And she does sit on committees that regulate companies that her and her husband Paul Pelosi have stocks and shares in.
01:02:19.000I'm sure those things are coincidences.
01:02:21.000When people say no kings, they mean no corruption.
01:02:35.000The crown is a superficial symbol of inaccessible power.
01:02:39.000And in a way, Nancy Pelosi is wearing, at very least, a tiara.
01:02:43.000And former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband have participated in at least eight IPOs.
01:02:50.000One of those came in 2008 from Visa, just as a troublesome piece of legislation that would have hurt credit card companies began making its way through the House.
01:03:00.000Undisturbed by a potential conflict of interest, the Pelosi's purchased 5,000 shares of Visa at the initial price of $44.
01:03:08.000Two days later, it was trading at $64.
01:03:12.000The credit card legislation never made it to the floor of the House.
01:03:16.000Congresswoman Pelosi also declined our request for an interview, but agreed to call on us if we attended a news conference.
01:03:31.000So does democracy look like a hereditary political class where you hear the name Obama a lot and the name Bush a lot and the name Clinton a lot?
01:03:41.000Is democracy about simply replacing monarchy with another class of people that are ultimately difficult to get rid of and accrue privilege from their position?
01:03:52.000Or was democracy meant to be something else?
01:03:55.000And could democracy be something else?
01:03:58.000I wanted to ask you why you and your husband back in March of 2008 accepted and participated in a very large IPO deal from Visa at a time there was major legislation affecting their credit card companies making its way through the House.
01:04:16.000And did you consider that to be a conflict of interest?
01:04:20.000I hope Nancy Pelosi handles this well because this question is being asked with her having had preparatory time.
01:04:25.000I don't know what your point is of your question.
01:04:27.000Is there some point that you want to make with that?
01:04:30.000Well, I guess what I'm asking is, do you think it's all right for a Speaker to accept a very preferential and favorable stock deal?
01:05:04.000When people say they don't want kings, I think what they're saying is they want control and power and authority over their own lives.
01:05:10.000They don't want systems of intransigent political power where people sit in Congress, accrue vast fortunes, remain in Congress for years, and become alienated and unaccountable.
01:05:23.000A real American Congress would be representative of the real America.
01:05:29.000You could say, well, this is what the 330 million Americans look like.
01:05:33.000And here is a proportional representation, an assembly that represents them geographically, ethnically, economically, and in terms of their interests.
01:05:45.000We know that Donald Trump has risen to power as a result of broken promises, primarily, I would say, from Democrats.
01:05:52.000The Democratic Party was long supported by members of trade unions.
01:05:56.000Those people have felt abandoned and lost.
01:05:59.000Those people vote in significant numbers for MAGA and for Trump.
01:06:03.000The reason for that is not because they are racist or because they aren't down with wokeism, it's because the Democrat Party abandoned them because they exploited political opportunity to accrue personal fortunes.
01:06:17.000The reason that there are kings and sovereigns, ciphers and symbols of power is because that's what people turned to in the wasteland created ironically by the corruption of figures like Nancy Pelosi.
01:06:31.000If Nancy Pelosi is against corrupt power, she could turn her eye on herself.
01:06:36.000And instead of tearing up a plastic crown, she could just have a long word with herself in the mirror and say something along the lines of, Nancy, you gotta stop making money using information that you acquire in Congress.
01:06:47.000You've got to stop just saying, it's for the children, arbitrarily when you feel like it, and start actually doing things for children.
01:06:54.000The same protest features Democratic senators Cory Brooker and Adam Schiff leading the crowd in the chant, this is what democracy looks like.
01:07:01.000But is it if democracy is meant to reflect the will and well-being of ordinary citizens, then the halls of Congress tell a very different story.
01:07:07.000According to the New York Times, nearly 120 members of Congress are aged 70 or older, with the issues particularly acute among Democrats.
01:07:14.000Many of these lawmakers have held their seats for decades, creating a political elite that looks more like a hereditary class than a dynamic democracy.
01:07:20.000Even more troubling, a significant number of them hold and trade stock in the very industries they regulate, blurring the line between public service and private enrichment.
01:07:29.000As reported by Open Secrets, the majority of lawmakers in Congress are millionaires, making the legislative branch not just the center of political power, but also one of immense personal wealth.
01:07:38.000To understand the irony, it's worth revisiting the meaning of the word king.
01:07:42.000In the British tradition, a king rules by divine right, his authority unchallenged, his reign indefinite, his wealth inherited and protected.
01:07:51.000Citizens may vote, protest and petition, but the monarch remains untouchable.
01:07:55.000Substitute crowns for congressional seats and royal decrees for committee appointments, and the resemblance to Washington's political establishment becomes difficult to ignore.
01:08:04.000When politicians remain in office for decades, insulated from accountability and enriched by their positions, they become a kind of new royalty.
01:08:11.000Political monarchs presiding over a managed democracy.
01:08:15.000Thus, when Pelosi snaps her plastic crown and Booker and Schiff declare that this is what democracy looks like, they invite the uncomfortable question.
01:08:22.000Is this truly democracy, a system in which the same lawmakers hold power for generations, accumulate fortunes through the markets they oversee and pass laws that rarely seem to touch their class?
01:08:32.000Or is it a carefully maintained illusion of a representation in which the ruling elite claim moral authority while the public bears the cost?
01:08:39.000The no kings rallies may have been intended as a warning against Trump, but they serve as an inadvertent reflection on the state of American governance itself.
01:08:46.000A true democracy demands renewal, accountability, transparency and turnover of power.
01:08:50.000Instead, the American system has calcified into a form of electoral aristocracy where longevity and wealth are the new systems of authority.
01:08:56.000The hypocrisy is not in the message that no one should be a king, but in who is delivering it.
01:09:00.000If democracy is to be more than a slogan chanted on the steps of Congress, it must start with those already in power relinquishing their crowns, nor the plastic ones they break for the cameras, but the invisible ones they've worn for decades.
01:09:11.000So will those in power relinquish the invisible crowns that they've been wearing for decades?
01:09:16.000Will America return to her glorious roots?
01:09:20.000A country that threw off the shackles of imperial power, that built a nation on the right to pursue happiness, the sovereignty of every individual.
01:09:29.000And we all know there were mistakes and there was corruption and there was slavery and there were genocide and there were a million terrible things that we could focus on.
01:09:36.000And yet, within all of that, this still is the greatest country in the world.
01:09:42.000This still is a country alive with possibility.
01:09:45.000And whilst Donald Trump might be the end of something rather than the beginning of something, I still believe very deeply in the potential for America to deliver real and true democracy.
