00:00:30.560 Hey everybody, how's it going?

00:00:32.580 My name is Oren McIntyre.

00:00:35.060 Now today, we have an incredibly important episode.

00:00:38.400 Because today, I'm declaring my total victory over my friend, Academic Agent.

00:00:45.380 Now in case you didn't know, Academic Agent and I have a running bet.

00:00:50.680 We have what's been called Cigar Slam 2025.

00:00:54.900 The bet was made a while back.

00:00:57.140 I bet that the regime would continue to accelerate into wokeness.

00:01:01.520 That they would be unable to control themselves.

00:01:04.000 That they are true believers who are dedicated to their cause.

00:01:07.320 And more importantly, that the mechanics of wokeness require this continued acceleration

00:01:13.140 of ideology.

00:01:14.280 That they would take reckless steps.

00:01:17.200 That they would infuriate the wrong people.

00:01:18.940 That they would drop the facade of democratic elections.

00:01:22.700 This would be the way that the woke continue to accelerate.

00:01:27.280 Academic Agent believes that the woke will be put away.

00:01:31.100 That the regime is, at the end of the day, cold and calculating.

00:01:35.300 That they value power more than their woke ideology.

00:01:38.820 That woke ideology is simply a tool of the powerful and the connected.

00:01:43.140 And it's used for a specific purpose.

00:01:46.240 But eventually, that it gets put away.

00:01:48.620 That once it becomes no longer useful,

00:01:51.020 they just go ahead and bring out the next ideology.

00:01:53.540 Maybe it's global warming.

00:01:55.200 Something like that.

00:01:56.340 And they put it away.

00:01:57.080 And obviously, we can see that there are all of these issues with wokeness

00:02:02.580 that are causing huge problems in our society.

00:02:05.980 You don't have a competency crisis.

00:02:07.780 Because you're not elevating people based on the competency.

00:02:10.580 You're elevating them based on the color of their skin.

00:02:13.820 You have the problem of inter-tribal warfare among different parts of the left.

00:02:18.240 Over issues like Palestine and Israel.

00:02:20.760 You have all kinds of conflicts cropping up due to wokeness.

00:02:26.580 The simple fact that the universities can no longer function.

00:02:30.400 It should be clear that wokeness is a problem. 1.00

00:02:32.880 So according to academic agents' theory,

00:02:36.280 the woke should be put away. 0.90

00:02:37.920 It should start to be put away.

00:02:38.840 Because it's causing too many problems.

00:02:40.720 It's no longer a good reason.

00:02:43.400 And no longer a good ideology for them to advance.

00:02:47.080 And they need to go ahead and switch to something else.

00:02:49.660 But I think there's been a series of victories that have just shown

00:02:53.640 that the wokeness is not going away. 0.98

00:02:56.240 That the left is going to continue to accelerate.

00:02:58.620 Continue to destroy things.

00:03:00.200 Continue to break the things that made America and the wider Western project work 0.77

00:03:04.460 in their desire for power.

00:03:07.600 And I think I can safely say, without a doubt,

00:03:10.520 that the woke will not be put away.

00:03:11.940 And that I can declare total victory in Cigar Slam.

00:03:15.360 Now, to be clear, academic agent has changed the terms of this deal many times.

00:03:20.960 Originally, the bet was for a box of cigars.

00:03:24.020 But I think early on, he knew that his bet was not that great.

00:03:27.400 And so he dialed it down to a cigar.

00:03:29.900 And then, you know, there was no date about when this was going to happen.

00:03:33.580 There's no rules.

00:03:34.380 And slowly but surely, he pushed the date further and further out.

00:03:37.320 I think at this point, he's saying it's 2025 or something

00:03:40.400 when we're supposed to figure this out.

00:03:41.980 But I think that the evidence is so overwhelming that it's time for me to declare victory.

00:03:48.020 And I think the final nail in this cough is, of course, the news that came out yesterday

00:03:53.020 that Colorado has removed Donald Trump from their ballot.

00:03:57.520 The Supreme Court has said that it is okay to remove Donald Trump from their ballot

00:04:01.520 under the 14th Amendment.

00:04:02.720 Now, that is very clearly an insane move.

00:04:05.480 If you were the regime, you would never do this.

00:04:07.960 This is the way to make it clear to people that democracy is not real, that it's all fake,

00:04:13.680 that it's all controlled, that elections will not be legitimate.

00:04:19.140 That's a suicidal move for people who understand that they need to control things with soft power.

00:04:26.480 But they've done it anyway.

00:04:27.440 They've started this process.

00:04:29.260 I think that's a definitive move.

00:04:31.280 We're going to get into all that, guys.

00:04:32.540 I want to explain what happened with Trump.

00:04:34.520 I want to look at some of the other evidence that I had lined up against academic agent.

00:04:38.700 Before we do all of that, let's go ahead and hear about ISI.

00:04:42.800 Universities today aren't just neglecting real education.

00:04:45.680 They're actively undermining it.

00:04:47.060 And we can't let them get away with it.

00:04:48.720 America was made for an educated and engaged citizenry.

00:04:52.260 The Intercollegiate Studies Institute is here to help.

00:04:55.080 ISI offers programs and opportunities for conservative students across the country.

00:04:59.700 ISI understands that conservatives and right-of-center students feel isolated on college campuses

00:05:05.340 and that you're often fighting for your own reputation, dignity, and future.

00:05:10.240 Through ISI, you can learn about what Russell Kirk called the permanent things,

00:05:14.420 the philosophical and political teachings that shaped and made Western civilization great.

00:05:19.340 ISI offers many opportunities to jumpstart your career.

00:05:22.120 They have fellowships at some of the nation's top conservative publications like National Review,

00:05:26.800 The American Conservative, and The College Thinker.

00:05:29.260 If you're a graduate student, ISI offers funding opportunities to sponsor the next great generation of college professors.

00:05:35.560 Through ISI, you can work with conservative thinkers who are making a difference.

00:05:39.460 Thinkers like Chris Ruffo, who currently has an ISI researcher helping him with his book.

00:05:44.480 But perhaps most importantly, ISI offers college students a community of people that can help them grow.

00:05:49.500 If you're a college student, ISI can help you start a student organization or student newspaper

00:05:54.700 or meet other like-minded students at their various conferences and events.

00:05:59.260 ISI is here to educate the next generation of great Americans.

00:06:02.960 To learn more, go to ISI.org.

00:06:05.860 That's ISI.org.

00:06:07.000 All right, guys.

00:06:09.740 So I want to get a couple things out of the way.

00:06:12.400 First, when we talk about this bet, I want to make it clear.

00:06:16.580 I am not happy that the things that are happening are happening.

00:06:19.540 I know that this is kind of a joke.

00:06:22.180 This is us having fun with a terrible situation.

00:06:25.200 But obviously, the events that are occurring in America right now are horrific.

00:06:28.780 Like, this is very dangerous stuff.

00:06:32.180 This is fire that they are playing with that puts the Constitution into an incredible crisis,

00:06:37.700 that puts the government into crisis, that ratchets up polarity on all political sides.

00:06:43.040 They are playing Radio Rwanda over these movies that I'm going to show you in a second.

00:06:47.340 And so I want to be very clear that while we're having fun with this for the second,

00:06:52.120 I understand the gravity of this.

00:06:54.560 I'm not happy about all of this.

00:06:56.200 But if Rome is going to be on fire and you can't do anything about it,

00:07:00.240 you might as well, I guess, make a joke here.

00:07:02.420 And that's kind of what we're doing here.

00:07:04.180 So I want to make that clear.

00:07:05.720 I'm not reveling in this, but I did call this.

00:07:08.980 I made an accurate prediction because I could see what was going on with these people.

00:07:13.900 And this is more about the accuracy of that prediction than being happy about any given event

00:07:18.760 we're going to be talking about, because I'm certainly not happy about any of the evidence

00:07:22.680 I'm about to present to you that the woke is not going away.

00:07:25.440 I wish the woke would go away, but it isn't. 1.00

00:07:27.720 So this is more about talking about the accuracy of that prediction, why it was accurate,

00:07:32.280 and what evidence I think is critical to look at when we're looking at the wokeness

00:07:37.240 and why it's accelerating.

00:07:38.800 The second thing I want to explain is that I think that academic agent is correct.

00:07:43.020 His theory about the woke being put away would be correct if the people in charge were the kind 1.00

00:07:49.840 of cunning, cold, overminds that he thinks they are.

00:07:53.660 If they really were as in control of themselves, they had that level of self-control that he

00:07:58.800 believes that they do, they would do exactly what he suggested.

00:08:03.860 So I'm not saying the academic agent is wrong about the prescription for what the powerful

00:08:09.040 should do.

00:08:10.300 I just think he misunderstands the nature of those currently in power.

00:08:14.140 And more importantly, the nature of the zeitgeist, the way in which they are subject to their

00:08:18.600 own story.

00:08:19.660 See, academic agent and I agree about 90% about the way that politics work.

00:08:24.260 We both agree with the Italian elite theorists that the elites drive most of public opinion

00:08:30.580 that they drive most of politics, that democracy, that popular sovereignty is not really a thing

00:08:36.780 and it never can be.

00:08:38.500 And so the thing, if you want to understand the moves in politics, is not to look at the

00:08:42.760 understanding of the average person or the opinion of the average person, but to look

00:08:47.220 at the power working on the elites.

00:08:49.020 The only difference we have is not this general political analysis about the mechanisms of power,

00:08:55.340 but about this small disagreement about the way that our current set of elites understand

00:09:01.300 the events happening around them.

00:09:02.980 The academic agent believes them to be cold and calculating guys who are in control of

00:09:07.960 what's happening as where I believe that they are a degraded form of elite and that more

00:09:14.000 importantly, they have drank their own Kool-Aid.

00:09:16.000 The story they are telling is no longer a convenient political formula that they're just telling

00:09:23.140 people, a noble lie that they're telling people so that they can retain power.

00:09:27.240 Instead, I believe that it is something that they have fully invested in and that they

00:09:31.860 are being drug along with their own story.

00:09:33.960 So I have more of a Gatano Mosca or even Curtis Yarvin understanding of elites as where academic

00:09:41.020 agent has more of a Wilfredo Pareto's understanding of the purpose of the elites and their current

00:09:46.760 formula.

00:09:47.980 So that's kind of the battle where we're in some ways rehashing a debate that's been in

00:09:52.560 elite theory as long as it's existed.

00:09:56.020 You know, Gatano Mosca and the Fredo Pareto disagreed about this.

00:10:01.120 And then Sam Francis and Paul Godfrey disagreed about this.

00:10:04.080 And I'm more with Mosca and Godfrey and academic agent is more with Pareto and guys like Sam

00:10:12.220 Francis or maybe James Burnham.

00:10:14.240 And so I think that that that split, the fundamental split inside a discipline of political analysis

00:10:22.240 that we mostly agree on is where this battle lies.

00:10:26.140 All right.

00:10:26.400 So what's my evidence?

00:10:27.420 Why am I declaring complete victory?

00:10:29.420 Why am I dropping the elbow on academic agent?

00:10:32.700 All right.

00:10:33.020 So there's been many reasons over the years, over the year or so that this bet has existed.

00:10:39.280 Cigar slam has existed.

00:10:40.900 There was, of course, the fact that after a trans shooter murdered children, the regime 0.81

00:10:47.240 sided with the trans community and not the Christians that were murdered.

00:10:51.940 That was a huge point that what was was not going away, even in the middle of a massive

00:10:56.640 crisis.

00:10:57.180 The way that the federal government has gone after Donald Trump, they have indicted him

00:11:02.080 on so many things.

00:11:03.740 They have raided his home.

00:11:05.640 That was another, I think, key point that they have accelerated what they're doing.

00:11:10.900 And that their prosecution of Trump makes it clear that they are willing to mess with

00:11:16.300 the entire formula.

00:11:17.520 They're not careful about anything, about the critical parts of the illusion of democracy.

00:11:22.920 They're they're abandoning that.

00:11:24.680 All of these are, I think, I think steps towards showing that academic agents position is just

00:11:31.600 untenable.

00:11:32.460 However, there was a series of events that have occurred over the last week that I think

00:11:36.160 just put the nail in the coffin.

00:11:38.280 I think he's been wrong for a long time.

00:11:39.980 I think it's been clear that he's been wrong for a long time.

00:11:42.420 However, I think in the last week, there's just been incontrovertible evidence that he

00:11:48.580 is losing this bet.

00:11:49.880 So it all started with this movie that came out on Netflix.

00:11:55.880 I have not seen it, but I have seen the clips from it.

00:11:59.360 And in this movie called Leave the World Behind, it kind of there's a there's a monologue in

00:12:06.380 it.

00:12:06.600 And one of the characters, it's two black characters laying in bed.

00:12:10.620 And one of them says, remember, this is a this is like a post-apocalyptic thing.

00:12:14.520 So they're talking about survival in the post-apocalypse.

00:12:16.900 And one of the characters says, if the world falls apart, trust should not be doled out

00:12:22.500 easily to anyone, especially white people.

00:12:26.180 Now, we're used to, I think, at this point, unfortunately, a large amount of anti-white

00:12:32.640 bias in media.

00:12:33.840 I think it's very clear that that is a message that is being pushed.

00:12:37.280 I think that the media is interested in radio Rwanda stuff.

00:12:41.280 They want to drive people to a fever pitch.

00:12:43.200 It's part of their ideology.

00:12:45.540 It's part of their belief system.

00:12:47.120 But it's also part of their divisive nature that they want to create this split inside

00:12:54.060 kind of the polity and increase, ratchet up this tension.

00:12:58.820 But it, you know, it's become more and more blatant.

00:13:02.120 The fact that they're just directly saying in large, you know, mainstream popular entertainment,

00:13:07.240 this isn't just like fringe, weird movies or, you know, things that college kids are

00:13:12.000 making.

00:13:12.540 This is stuff that's getting, you know, mainstream front page splash advertisements at places

00:13:19.080 like Netflix.

00:13:20.240 Now, you think that this would be obviously a win for me, right?

00:13:24.280 You would say, OK, well, you believe that the woke is accelerating, that it won't be put

00:13:27.580 away.

00:13:27.880 And Netflix is throwing out blatant anti-wave propaganda in their entertainment like this.

00:13:33.360 So obviously, this is a win for you.

00:13:35.440 But no, says Academic Agent, who goes by Roland Ratt on Twitter.

00:13:43.280 He says, I expect this to be one of the last films in the woke cycle.

00:13:47.400 Novel was written in 2020.

00:13:48.860 Writes one in 2021.

00:13:50.160 Produced in early 2022.

00:13:51.200 I expect, excuse me, I expect no new woke movies produced in 2023 itself released next

00:13:59.820 year to be made if they are or McIntyre will likely win the cigar used to be a box of cigars

00:14:06.300 will likely win the cigar, but I am confident.

00:14:11.220 Now, I want to say he said the exact same thing about kind of a split that would happen

00:14:16.180 in the left once the events in Gaza happened.

00:14:20.420 I feel like he already took the L there.

00:14:22.040 I feel like there's already a definitive L when it turned out the pro-Palestinian side 0.70

00:14:26.780 started winning on campuses.

00:14:29.620 But, you know, he's got to reassess this.

00:14:32.480 He's got to move the goalposts all the time.

00:14:34.600 But it's great because as soon as he said this, you know, I just went down there.

00:14:37.480 I was like, oh, buddy, if that's the best, if that's the bet, if that's the bet, then you

00:14:41.220 can just ship me the cigar now, right?

00:14:42.640 Like, this is so it's so clear that I have won if you're if you're going to make a mistake

00:14:48.020 like this, when he when he sets a goal like this, it's so obvious that I'm going to win.

00:14:52.760 I knew that this was going to be something that he would just end up destroying himself.

00:14:57.200 But there's no way that this would be the correct prediction.

00:15:00.480 And lo and behold, let's take a look at this.

00:15:02.100 So this was December 9th when he made this prediction.

00:15:05.420 And lo and behold, what did we see just a few days later?

00:15:19.920 We see this trailer.

00:15:21.980 All right, let me show you this trailer and play a little bit of this trailer.

00:15:25.880 Now, this is this is on December 15th.

00:15:29.220 So like a week later, barely a week later, we get this trailer.

00:15:33.020 This trailer is for a movie called the American Society of Magical Negroes.

00:15:39.120 YouTube, please.

00:15:40.280 I am reading.

00:15:41.760 I'm reading the title of the movie.

00:15:44.600 OK, I did not make that up.

00:15:47.540 When I saw that, I almost spit out my drink.

00:15:50.900 I was like, there's no way this is real.

00:15:53.940 I immediately went and searched to see if it was a parody.

00:15:56.960 It is not.

00:15:57.680 It is a real movie.

00:15:58.580 It is coming out in 2024.

00:16:00.640 I promise I did not make this up, though.

00:16:03.900 I would not be surprised if like, you know, someone like slipped in undercover and somehow

00:16:09.420 got this movie made as a as a joke.

00:16:12.020 However, let me go ahead and play you just a little bit.

00:16:15.080 Just get a little taste of this movie trailer.

00:16:23.420 I know you can feel their discomfort, Aaron.

00:16:26.960 Watching you walk through a room full of white people is the most painful thing I've ever seen. 1.00

00:16:32.280 Just kidding. 0.98

00:16:32.800 Sorry.

00:16:33.460 I don't want to take you to a job interview.

00:16:35.560 There's a recruiting class starting right now and we've got to get you in it.

00:16:41.120 Welcome to the American Society of Magical Negroes. 0.97

00:16:47.600 Okay, so watching him walk through a room of white people is the most painful thing this 1.00

00:16:54.220 guy has ever seen, right?

00:16:55.400 That's where we're starting.

00:16:57.100 That's just the first couple seconds of this movie.

00:17:00.920 And it looks like it's Harry Potter.

00:17:02.720 But for people who want to like, not like white people, it's that seems like that that that 0.59

00:17:11.700 seems to be that seems to be the premise of the movie.

00:17:15.440 Let's watch a little bit, a bit more here.

00:17:17.880 I don't really understand.

00:17:21.400 It's easier to say.

00:17:23.780 What's the most dangerous animal on the planet?

00:17:26.860 Shark. 0.98

00:17:27.340 White people. 0.80

00:17:28.220 When they feel. 0.99

00:17:29.360 What's the most dangerous animal on the planet?

00:17:33.940 That's the line.

00:17:34.740 What's the most dangerous animal on the planet?

00:17:36.260 He says, shark. 0.99

00:17:36.900 He said, no, white people. 0.98

00:17:38.980 White people. 0.69

00:17:39.660 I want to remind you, this is five days after Academic Agent Betts that we're done with

00:17:45.720 wokeness.

00:17:46.660 It's over.

00:17:47.400 Woke movies.

00:17:48.320 They're toast.

00:17:49.100 This is going to be it.

00:17:50.360 This is going to be the end. 1.00

00:17:52.600 Five days later, white people, the most dangerous thing on the planet. 1.00

00:17:57.060 Feel uncomfortable. 1.00

00:17:58.240 White people feeling uncomfortable precedes a lot of bad stuff for us. 0.98

00:18:02.160 That's why we fight white discomfort every day. 0.98

00:18:05.320 Because the happier they are, the safer we are.

00:18:09.660 So the purpose of this movie is apparently that there's like a magical Harry Potter.

00:18:13.360 There's like a Hogwarts where they teach black people to make white people happy so white 1.00

00:18:19.140 people don't become uncomfortable and then become dangerous.

00:18:23.600 Okay.

00:18:24.440 This is the premise of the movie.

00:18:27.280 We're five days away from Academic Agent making the bet that we're, this is it.

00:18:31.800 We're done.

00:18:32.240 This is the peak of woke movies.

00:18:34.420 It can't get worse than that.

00:18:35.740 There's no way that they're going to release more mainstream movies.

00:18:38.540 You know, we're not going to get 20, 24 movies that time.

00:18:41.020 Oh, oh, oh, it gets worse.

00:18:44.500 The name is a little updating. 0.98

00:18:46.180 Maybe like magical black people. 0.99

00:18:49.260 I guess that doesn't have the same ring. 0.87

00:18:51.760 You ready?

00:18:52.540 Oh, wow.

00:18:53.560 Your first client is a Jason Munt.

00:18:55.720 His morale is far too low.

00:18:57.360 Hey.

00:18:57.760 Hey. 1.00

00:18:58.260 Darn it. 0.99

00:18:58.680 I was hoping there was a station right next to him. 0.99

00:19:01.420 Oh, is this one spoken for?

00:19:02.660 No.

00:19:03.880 Yeah.

00:19:04.260 It's actually fun and weirdly relaxing.

00:19:06.460 It's like being a secret agent with none of the danger.

00:19:08.520 Hey.

00:19:09.220 I'm Lucy.

00:19:09.960 Nice to meet you.

00:19:10.860 So his job is basically like go around and like make white people happy so they're not 0.98

00:19:15.520 dangerous to black people. 1.00

00:19:16.960 You get, you get the idea of the movie. 0.99

00:19:19.940 All right.

00:19:20.340 So I figured that was enough, right?

00:19:24.540 Academic Agent had set the bar.

00:19:26.600 We had the goal.

00:19:27.640 You know, we knew what the goal was that, you know, if you have this new movie, if you

00:19:34.700 have any more movies that come out, you know, this is peak wokeness.

00:19:37.380 That's as bad as movies are going to get.

00:19:39.080 It's not going to get any worse than that, right?

00:19:40.800 There's no way that events could accelerate even further.

00:19:44.580 There's no way that there could be another major shakeup that could be even any.

00:19:48.520 I mean, how could we need any evidence beyond that?

00:19:51.640 That itself should be clearly enough.

00:19:53.820 I mean, how could the regime make it any more clear that the woke isn't going away? 0.95

00:19:58.560 Oh.

00:20:00.100 Oh, okay.

00:20:01.260 So Colorado Supreme Court rules that Trump is disqualified from the state's ballot over

00:20:08.640 insurrection indictment.

00:20:11.340 The Colorado Supreme Court overturned a lower court's ruling on Tuesday and said that the

00:20:15.600 former president, Donald Trump, was disqualified from appearing on the state's ballot over his

00:20:21.280 alleged indictment of insurrection.

00:20:23.460 However, the court allowed time for the former president to file an appeal by staying the

00:20:27.620 effect of the ruling until January 4th.

00:20:30.940 So I told people for a long time, I warned people about this, that the language being 1.00

00:20:36.960 used by the media was very specific.

00:20:40.740 Before the events of January 6th, you had never heard anyone in the media talk about an

00:20:46.160 insurrection.

00:20:47.240 Okay.

00:20:47.380 There had been no talk about insurrections being planned.

00:20:52.980 No one had ever been accused of an insurrection, planning an insurrection.

00:20:56.900 Maybe they'd say treason, but no one ever used the word insurrection.

00:21:00.540 The fact that everyone in the media, from the New York Times to MSNBC to CNN, all suddenly

00:21:06.900 synced up.

00:21:07.660 Washington Post, they all suddenly had the exact same term for what happened in January

00:21:13.620 6th.

00:21:14.040 Not a riot, not a protest, not even like, oh, violence or something like that.

00:21:19.300 Not even treason or mutiny or something.

00:21:22.260 Specifically, insurrection.

00:21:24.320 Very strange, right?

00:21:25.460 That they would choose that specific term.

00:21:29.060 Why would they choose the term insurrection?

00:21:31.620 And they warned everybody that the 14th Amendment was their goal, that that had been chosen for

00:21:38.320 a very particular reason, that they wanted to exploit a constitutional provision.

00:21:44.980 Now, for those who are unfamiliar, the 14th Amendment was passed after the Civil War.

00:21:49.540 And the 14th Amendment is one of the most abused pieces of constitutional language that we

00:21:56.820 have.

00:21:57.380 OK, this is up there with, like, the Commerce Clause for just creating infinite amount of

00:22:03.020 growth.

00:22:03.320 In fact, it's beyond the Commerce Clause at this point for creating an infinite amount

00:22:07.320 of growth and power for the government.

00:22:10.080 So the way that the 14th Amendment works is that they said, you know, there's the equal

00:22:15.820 protection under the law, right?

00:22:17.680 And that the extension of that phrase, equal protection under the law in the 14th Amendment

00:22:21.820 has been wildly abused.

00:22:23.780 OK, it's been wildly abused by the Supreme Court to basically turn a large amount of

00:22:30.320 civil rights law into just everything.

00:22:31.940 It applies to everything all the time.

00:22:34.180 The government has infinite power when it comes to making sure that the law is applied

00:22:38.280 equally to people.

00:22:39.860 And so it vastly increased the power of the government just in that phrase.

00:22:45.880 It also defines what a citizen is, and this is where you get birth or this is where you

00:22:51.660 get, like, birthright citizenship.

00:22:54.400 This is where you get kind of the anchor baby phenomenon.

00:22:58.200 It comes from this.

00:22:59.580 Now, the 14th Amendment was very clearly designed for a very specific reason.

00:23:04.140 It's post the Civil War, and it's trying to explain why black Americans who were born as

00:23:10.200 slaves are actually citizens for the United States for the purpose of things like elections.

00:23:16.300 They wanted to make sure that states that were trying to figure out whether former slaves

00:23:20.840 were technically Americans and citizens, that it made it clear what constituted an American

00:23:25.880 citizen.

00:23:26.180 And so that part of Section 1 of the 14th Amendment is there to make it clear who is an American.

00:23:32.440 American, and that's kind of the idea of why that existed.

00:23:38.980 That has been exploited by illegal immigration.

00:23:41.860 Anybody who gets onto American soil and is born here is automatically an American citizen 0.96

00:23:46.640 due to the 14th Amendment.

00:23:47.720 So the 14th Amendment has been exploited in a lot of ways.

00:23:50.660 It's been exploited through civil rights law.

00:23:53.140 It's been exploited through immigration law.

00:23:55.020 It's just riddled with holes.

00:23:56.900 The 14th Amendment basically says whatever the court wants it to say, which is true of the 0.99

00:24:01.340 Constitution all the time.

00:24:02.740 Sorry, conservatives, that the Democrats, right or wrong, or Democrats, for better or

00:24:07.740 for worse, are right about the living nature of a Constitution, but we can get into that

00:24:12.480 another time.

00:24:13.800 So this is a very exploited provision in the Constitution, a very exploited amendment.

00:24:20.860 However, Section 3 is the part that they are hitting on.

00:24:25.120 It says,

00:24:25.420 No person shall be a senator or a representative in Congress or an elector of the president

00:24:31.160 or vice president, so part of the Electoral College, or hold any office, civil or military

00:24:36.280 under the United States or any other state who, having previously taken an oath as a member

00:24:41.340 of Congress or as an officer of the United States or as a member of any state legislature

00:24:45.080 or as an executive or judicial officer of any state to support the Constitution of the

00:24:49.940 United States, shall be engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same.

00:24:55.640 So there you go.

00:24:56.300 That's the key trigger.

00:24:57.680 So why did they go after Trump this way?

00:24:59.860 Shouldn't it be enough to just lock him up, right?

00:25:02.080 You just lock him up and then he can't run for president.

00:25:04.560 Actually, no, because in the Constitution, there are only three provisions.

00:25:09.560 There are only three requirements for what the president needs to be to run.

00:25:15.320 You have to meet three requirements.

00:25:16.800 You have to be 35 years old.

00:25:19.540 You need to be, you need to have been a natural born citizen.

00:25:23.760 You can't be an immigrant and you have to, you have to have been a resident for 14 years. 1.00

00:25:30.760 So you can't like move to Germany, live there until you're 34, move here at 35 and then 0.75

00:25:35.360 run for president.

00:25:36.140 You can run for president for jail. 0.90

00:25:37.840 You can be a convicted felon. 1.00

00:25:39.500 You could be a serial killer and run for president.

00:25:41.520 There is no requirement when it comes to legality.

00:25:44.760 So all of their attempts to go ahead and indict Trump, all of their attempts to arrest him,

00:25:51.060 all their attempts to convict him, they wouldn't actually keep him from running for

00:25:54.160 president.

00:25:54.500 However, the one thing that could is the one other requirement that was added through the

00:25:59.660 14th Amendment, which is the restriction on those who have participated in insurrection

00:26:05.020 after taking an oath.

00:26:06.400 And since Trump was sworn in as president and took the oath of office, he qualifies under

00:26:11.200 the 14th Amendment if you can get it to stick.

00:26:13.080 There's only one problem, however, that's not real because Trump has never been charged

00:26:18.900 with insurrection.

00:26:19.780 He's been charged with all kinds of other things.

00:26:21.820 He's been charged with all kinds of other crimes, all other, all kinds of violations, but

00:26:26.960 he has never been charged with insurrection, which means it doesn't fall under the 14th

00:26:33.660 Amendment.

00:26:33.980 However, despite the fact that he has never been charged with the crime that triggers the

00:26:38.880 14th Amendment, Colorado just kind of ignored that and decided to try to remove him from

00:26:45.160 the ballot.

00:26:45.620 Hold on.

00:26:46.440 Hold on.

00:26:46.840 Who is that?

00:26:48.300 Who is it?

00:26:48.720 What is it?

00:26:49.960 Oh, no.

00:26:50.840 What is this?

00:26:52.020 Academic?

00:26:52.520 What are you doing here?

00:26:54.880 Your time's up, McIntyre.

00:26:56.820 I've heard enough.

00:26:59.840 I've heard enough.

00:27:02.280 Come on.

00:27:03.840 There's a lot of there's a lot of skullduggery and shenanigans that have gone on in the past

00:27:09.400 27 minutes, and I'm here to set the record straight.

00:27:13.960 Look, I think it's clear to everyone that you have been completely destroyed.

00:27:18.360 Your arguments are done.

00:27:19.520 Trump has been removed from the ballot already in one state.

00:27:23.940 How can you possibly tell me the woke is is getting put away? 0.84

00:27:28.020 I mean, OK, am I able to share my screen for a second?

00:27:32.800 I think you'd have to add it.

00:27:34.180 I think you have to add it here.

00:27:35.400 I don't think.

00:27:35.940 So, right.

00:27:37.280 First of all.

00:27:38.920 I need to clear up a couple of legalities about the actual bet itself.

00:27:43.300 All right.

00:27:43.640 Because if we go back to the original bet, 14th of May, 2023, Aaron says, happy to put

00:27:55.460 some cigars on the line.

00:27:58.400 OK, I don't know why you got this idea.

00:27:59.780 It was a box of cigars from one or box.

00:28:04.620 These are the units of distribution.

00:28:06.380 I thought it was clear.

00:28:07.400 I mean, in my mind, it was a single pad drawn 1926 from you to me.

00:28:13.980 Or if you win, I can get I can ship you one of my special Cubans, which I know is difficult 0.99

00:28:18.900 to get in America.

00:28:20.260 But let me just read the original bet a second.

00:28:24.020 OK.

00:28:25.740 It's a deal, but we need a date.

00:28:28.500 Let's say the 14th of May, 2025.

00:28:32.360 Now, I just want everybody here to check the date.

00:28:36.380 What is the date today?

00:28:38.860 It is December the 20th, 2023.

00:28:45.300 So by my calculations, you're declaring victory a whole year early, even more than a year,

00:28:51.740 but 14 months early for a start.

00:28:54.360 So this is the mercy rule.

00:28:56.640 It's so clear that you've been destroyed.

00:28:58.500 I'm just trying to save you the indignity of having to go through another year of this.

00:29:03.500 So that's the first thing.

00:29:04.900 OK.

00:29:05.180 I said in exactly two years from now, if woke is obviously intensified by then, you win.

00:29:13.860 If we're living through a UK general election in which both parties are trying to anti-woke

00:29:19.480 each other, which they are, by the way, the Conservatives and Labour in this country are now both anti-immigration

00:29:26.240 parties, apparently.

00:29:27.180 And we're doing a Trump presidency, I win.

00:29:35.860 And then I put an asterisk there, and I'm saying, if it's an obviously non-woke dem president, that also counts.

00:29:42.620 And I'm trying to think of who an obviously non-woke, like, I mean...

00:30:03.400 I don't think there is such a figure that exists right now.

00:30:07.620 Yeah, even RFK is woke, even though he's like, you know...

00:30:10.860 Yeah, I wouldn't...

00:30:12.340 RFK wouldn't...

00:30:13.500 RFK is kind of anti-regime, but he's not anti...

00:30:16.400 He's not overtly anti-woke, but...

00:30:19.100 I don't know.

00:30:19.560 If they...

00:30:20.200 Like, I saw a story the other day that The Rock had...

00:30:24.260 You know, the actual wrestler The Rock, Dwayne Johnson, had gone to the Pentagon

00:30:28.540 and was meeting about a possible presidential run, let's pretend The Rock comes out, but

00:30:34.760 he's, like, anti-woke as well.

00:30:37.080 I mean, if The Rock became the president instead of Trump, it would still be a notch, you know? 0.90

00:30:42.680 Well, then we're literally in the idiocracy, right?

00:30:46.300 Yeah, but I mean, the bet is not over.

00:30:49.880 The bet is not over whether the future world isn't...

00:30:54.140 I mean, we're going to go into the idiocracy no matter who wins, right?

00:30:56.800 We're there already.

00:30:57.780 But the bet is, is the woke going to be...

00:31:02.140 Is the woke directionally going to be...

00:31:05.020 Is it obviously going to be put away by the 14th of May?

00:31:09.060 Now, I have a number of data points, Aaron, because you've just had 27 minutes in which

00:31:14.520 you ran your mouth in front of these great fans here, these great American fans of yours,

00:31:21.320 and they deserve better, McIntyre, okay?

00:31:23.540 And I've got some data points to show you that 2023 actually was an anti-woke hurricane, okay?

00:31:33.600 It was a hurricane, so...

00:31:34.940 Okay, I'm ready for this.

00:31:36.760 All right.

00:31:37.840 All right.

00:31:38.780 Did you make a slideshow while I was doing this?

00:31:40.940 Well, it's just one slide.

00:31:42.540 It's one slide.

00:31:43.480 That's like, wow.

00:31:44.160 But, you know, well, I couldn't bring a chair, but I brought a slide.

00:31:47.480 This is my version of it.

00:31:48.520 This is my intellectual version of the steel chair.

00:31:50.220 A chair shot, yeah.

00:31:51.100 Look, 10 signals that I will win.

00:31:54.220 And I'll note that I haven't put any UK-centric points like that.

00:31:57.500 That's important because I do think, I will say, I do think there's a divergence here.

00:32:01.180 I think America, our elites are way more insane, which makes sense because we are the ground zero for this.

00:32:09.140 So I think you might win in the UK and I might win in America, but we'll have to see.

00:32:14.440 Anyway, go ahead.

00:32:15.700 So here are 10 signals that I will win, okay?

00:32:18.580 First thing is the polls, okay?

00:32:20.860 And I don't think this can be overlooked versus 2016 or 2020, right?

00:32:27.040 But Trump, in some current polls by Harris, is eight points up on Biden.

00:32:33.960 Even in the most regime-friendly polls, Trump is still winning, right, by three or four points.

00:32:40.960 This is a very different ballpark from the days where, do you remember for a long time,

00:32:47.800 Trump had about 33% of core base support, but then he struggled with the independents

00:32:53.900 and he struggled to get over that line?

00:32:55.540 And now Trump comfortably is ahead of Biden in all the head-to-heads, apart from in one poll

00:33:03.600 where they, for some reason, put Nikki Haley on the ballot and Nikki Haley was like 50-50

00:33:08.720 or something, right?

00:33:09.720 But if you have a look at the 538 poll of polls, it's very clear that Trump is well ahead

00:33:18.260 of Biden, and this puts the whole election in a different ballpark because it not only means that Trump is the kind of favorite of the Republicans

00:33:31.960 or this base of kind of hardcore MAGA heads, he is actually the favorite to win the election.

00:33:39.220 That is, he is America's favorite going in.

00:33:42.480 Now, I think we have to, when we're looking at polls, we have to bring up two things.

00:33:46.480 I do think you're right that there's some interesting things happening with polls, but two things, two caveats we need to look at here.

00:33:51.500 First, you have to remember how inaccurate the polling was leading up to Trump's original win, right?

00:33:58.160 He was given a, Hillary Clinton was given a 97% chance to win going into the election. 1.00

00:34:05.520 Obviously, those results were bunk.

00:34:07.560 And so if you're looking at the comparison between the two polls, that cannot be a reliable comparison by definition 0.99

00:34:13.780 because the polling was obviously garbage.

00:34:15.820 And what you're assuming is that the polling was fine then and the polling is now good, 0.95

00:34:21.300 and you're comparing those results.

00:34:22.600 But they're uncomparable because the data was wrong, it was completely bunk.

00:34:26.260 But, you see, back then, the polls, I'm not saying the polls were rigged,

00:34:32.820 but the pollsters, you know, you can listen to Richard Barris or people like that about this,

00:34:38.700 the pollsters deliberately waited to, you know, they kind of rigged their samples a little bit

00:34:47.240 to almost kind of, you know, manufacture the results

00:34:53.180 because the polling itself was a form of persuasion.

00:34:57.820 We saw this in 2020, we saw it in 2016, and it was a way of helping the Democrats win.

00:35:04.280 In this election, either they've changed the way they do polling,

00:35:09.260 or Trump is so overwhelmingly in front in the actual polls that they have no choice but to show this.

00:35:17.360 Either way, the messaging we're getting from the regime and all its arms, 0.95

00:35:21.900 538 is not like a MAGA, like a MAGA-friendly publication or anything.

00:35:26.720 The media are telling us Trump is going to win, right?

00:35:30.640 So I'm just saying the messaging is very different going into this election than it has been before.

00:35:35.480 The other thing is that if you think of, you know, some people would say DeSantis, Haley, Christie,

00:35:45.740 all these clowns are on the Republican ballot in the primaries. 0.92

00:35:51.220 You know, you've had this whole clown show of the primaries going on. 0.95

00:35:54.560 Trump is just refusing to appear on any of them, which is the correct move.

00:35:57.980 Right.

00:36:00.260 He is 50 points in front.

00:36:02.320 If you have a look at the 538 poll of polls, the Trump versus DeSantis head-to-head,

00:36:08.960 or Trump versus Haley, it actually, like, the graph is so wide now that it looks like a crocodile's jaws.

00:36:16.560 If you, like, the actual graph looks like a crocodile opening its mouth.

00:36:20.460 That's how big the gap is.

00:36:22.460 So I'm just saying that the actual weight of public opinion does matter because it strips.

00:36:30.320 Man, oh, we're done with elite theory now.

00:36:33.360 It's public opinion.

00:36:35.260 No, well, I mean, even in elite theory, the elites have to think about where a population is, right?

00:36:43.320 They can't just, you know, they can't just completely be at odds.

00:36:47.780 I mean, let's imagine for a second, okay, that the regime wanted to become, I don't know, full-on Hitlerian, right, tomorrow. 0.74

00:37:01.020 The population wouldn't brook that, and neither would it brook going full Stalin tomorrow, okay?

00:37:06.600 I.e., an elite has to weigh up what it can get away with.

00:37:13.380 This is an often missed point in elite theory, I think.

00:37:16.700 They can't just get away with anything.

00:37:19.300 They have to consider, you know, and they then have to start making deals and trading off.

00:37:24.440 They have to mold what they have to work with.

00:37:27.480 They can't just fabricate everything full-on.

00:37:29.920 Right, I mean, and that's why up until fairly recently, in fact, still, every...

00:37:36.600 American president has to at least pretend to be Christian, right? 0.97

00:37:41.200 Yeah, yeah, and marry them, yeah.

00:37:43.500 Yeah, I mean, and you even see this in other countries, right?

00:37:46.240 You see it in other countries, like an example I would give to people is in Turkey.

00:37:51.120 If you look at Erdogan, right, recently there have been huge crowds protesting against Israel in Turkey, okay?

00:38:00.840 And Erdogan, he just gets on the mic and he kind of cheers along with them,

00:38:04.860 even though it's clear from his actual actions, he has no, like, you know,

00:38:11.460 he's not actually going to do anything about what's happening in Israel at all.

00:38:16.960 But, you know, for the good of his own regime in Turkey,

00:38:21.340 he has to play along with where the weight of public opinion is, right?

00:38:26.180 So that's the first thing.

00:38:27.440 Second thing is that I think much of the regime media, I'm talking New York Times,

00:38:33.940 I'm talking CNN, I'm talking...

00:38:36.120 I'm not talking, like, there are the crazies, like there's MSNBC, Maddow, you know, The Guardian.

00:38:45.140 You know, you've got your, like, left-wing publications, right?

00:38:48.380 But there are other media outlets which are more...

00:38:53.780 They like to present themselves as being the adults in the room.

00:38:57.800 And CNN and the New York Times are still kind of, you know...

00:39:03.380 I mean, it's hard to say it with a straight face,

00:39:06.280 but they still like to think of themselves as being serious kind of bellwethers for polite opinion.

00:39:13.780 And I have noticed that all year they've basically been prepping for a Trump presidency.

00:39:19.800 By which I mean that Brandon, that is, Joe Biden, has lost his plot armour.

00:39:25.720 You know, there was a moment, and I don't know when it happened,

00:39:28.440 maybe back in January or February, where it's like, right, the press are going to...

00:39:35.780 They're going to criticise Biden from now on.

00:39:37.980 They're not going to protect them from, like, Hunter Biden stuff or economy stuff or, you know...

00:39:45.200 You know, they've gone...

00:39:46.000 And so what I'm saying is, is that on CNN or in the New York Times,

00:39:51.040 you now regularly see articles that are critical of Brandon.

00:39:56.860 And I'm also not seeing in those publications the same degree of Trump derangement syndrome.

00:40:04.380 In fact, it's much more...

00:40:05.960 Oh, no. Okay, sorry.

00:40:07.040 Wait, hold on a second.

00:40:07.920 I'm sorry. I have to step in here.

00:40:09.180 I have to step in here.

00:40:09.960 Go on, go on, go on.

00:40:11.660 Washington Post had the, like, prepare for the Trump dictatorship thing.

00:40:17.320 They have a whole series of Trump derangement syndrome

00:40:20.760 talking about how he's going to jail his enemies

00:40:23.080 and basically do everything they are going to do.

00:40:25.500 Washington Post, though, is that a serious publication?

00:40:28.060 I mean, it's...

00:40:28.680 I'm talking about, like, regime bellwether.

00:40:30.600 It is a regime bellwether.

00:40:33.000 No, this is...

00:40:34.260 BBC, NYT, Tier 1, CNN,

00:40:37.040 right?

00:40:39.120 I mean, if you go on BBC or CNN and so on,

00:40:43.120 there will be articles there that basically voice concern

00:40:46.960 about Democrats overreach.

00:40:50.140 And it'll be...

00:40:52.300 The headline will be something like...

00:40:54.220 I read one earlier on,

00:40:55.900 you know,

00:40:57.860 Colorado has just put a rocket fuel under Trump's base

00:41:02.900 and stuff like this.

00:41:03.700 It's like...

00:41:05.220 I.e. their narrative is that this is going to backfire.

00:41:08.600 It's not a good idea.

00:41:09.980 They weren't up for the FBI raid.

00:41:12.120 They weren't up...

00:41:12.700 They've not really been up for the indictments.

00:41:14.460 And they're not up for this.

00:41:16.280 In my...

00:41:16.840 That's my read.

00:41:18.040 All right.

00:41:18.240 I'm going to play this right here.

00:41:19.540 I'm going to play the...

00:41:20.500 I want to...

00:41:20.980 I want to look at the rhetorical groundwork

00:41:22.760 that is being laid right now.

00:41:24.440 To the...

00:41:25.160 To the Republican candidates...

00:41:27.380 Sorry.

00:41:27.580 Wait!

00:41:27.820 There's MSNBC!

00:41:29.320 Wait!

00:41:29.920 Stop! 1.00

00:41:30.440 Stop! 1.00

00:41:31.200 This is the equivalent of playing, like...

00:41:36.380 What's that channel that loves Trump?

00:41:39.280 Like, uh...

00:41:40.780 You know...

00:41:42.480 Newsmax, or whatever they were called.

00:41:43.820 Sure, sure.

00:41:45.040 Yeah, Newsmax.

00:41:45.540 I mean, okay.

00:41:46.300 So, this is a very far-left publication.

00:41:48.820 Okay.

00:41:49.160 Just stay with me.

00:41:50.160 Let's play this.

00:41:51.400 You can poo-poo it later here.

00:41:53.460 But we should have the say, and not the courts.

00:41:56.220 Why are you standing with Confederates 0.96

00:41:59.920 who betrayed this country?

00:42:02.680 And this is what they're standing with

00:42:06.460 is the spirit of those Confederates

00:42:10.420 rather than the Americans

00:42:13.420 who came together after a long and brutal civil war

00:42:16.800 that was fought to keep the Union together

00:42:19.580 and saw, clearly saw, a threat

00:42:23.140 in ex-Confederates running for office,

00:42:27.180 so much so that they amended the Constitution

00:42:30.760 to prevent those traitors

00:42:35.200 from running for office.

00:42:37.540 That should send a message

00:42:39.580 that our election system,

00:42:42.060 our electoral system,

00:42:43.220 can be used for nefarious purposes

00:42:47.620 against the democracy itself.

00:42:49.920 She's directly calling for the end of democracy

00:42:52.260 to save democracy.

00:42:53.420 She's laying the groundwork.

00:42:54.500 She's saying, basically, January 6th

00:42:56.240 was another civil war.

00:42:57.720 It's like the American Civil War,

00:42:59.140 and therefore, we can legitimately remove

00:43:03.020 all political opposition

00:43:04.360 in order to save the United States.

00:43:07.080 We have to eliminate all possibility

00:43:09.540 of our political opponents being elected.

00:43:12.020 You can't tell me that that's like

00:43:13.560 them backing away from Trump derangement system.

00:43:16.520 Well, MSNBC has got their...

00:43:19.500 You've got to understand,

00:43:20.380 just like there was QAnon,

00:43:21.720 there's BlueAnon.

00:43:22.740 There's the BlueAnon guys.

00:43:25.280 There are the...

00:43:26.300 You know, they're so blue.

00:43:27.280 They're so...

00:43:28.320 You know, it's the Maddow crowd.

00:43:30.560 And they're a small contingent.

00:43:32.860 I don't know how many people

00:43:33.940 MSNBC actually gets these days.

00:43:36.880 100,000 people, something like that.

00:43:39.980 Which are basically the crazies of the left.

00:43:42.820 So you're basically shining a spotlight 0.96

00:43:44.500 on the crazies of the left.

00:43:46.700 And I would say that there's a much bigger contingent

00:43:50.140 of moderate...

00:43:52.280 Moderates who are actually genuinely worried

00:43:54.940 about the direction the country is going in

00:43:56.800 and have decided to not go all in

00:44:01.920 on this sort of stuff.

00:44:04.140 Which is why I reckon you're getting

00:44:06.200 basically a split in regime storytelling,

00:44:10.720 if you want.

00:44:12.500 Whereby Washington Post and MSNBC

00:44:15.400 and some of these Guardian is on board,

00:44:18.540 which is basically the left, right?

00:44:20.320 The kind of hardcore vanguard left.

00:44:24.680 And then a divergence between them

00:44:26.740 and the CNNs and the New York Times.

00:44:30.060 And, you know, let's say in this country

00:44:33.100 it would be the Times,

00:44:35.620 which are...

00:44:36.860 The Economist is important.

00:44:40.000 The Financial Times.

00:44:41.960 These are regime bellwether.

00:44:43.640 Foreign policy is another one

00:44:44.980 that you can read.

00:44:45.960 All of these have become highly dubious

00:44:49.540 of these sort of shenanigans

00:44:50.940 because, you know,

00:44:52.700 there's intelligent people

00:44:53.880 who still work there,

00:44:55.380 you know, despite idiocracy. 0.99

00:44:58.000 And, you know, they're not stupid. 0.99

00:44:59.600 They can see that this is going to cause trouble. 0.95

00:45:02.360 And so I'm just saying that,

00:45:05.160 you know, where the...

00:45:07.380 We have seen the regime

00:45:08.600 when it's unified, right?

00:45:10.160 In messaging.

00:45:11.000 We saw it on Russiagate.

00:45:13.500 They were unified on that.

00:45:14.740 They were unified in their messaging

00:45:16.960 on COVID, right?

00:45:19.320 And they were unified in their messaging

00:45:20.680 on the 2020 election.

00:45:22.460 Those are three times we've seen

00:45:24.120 the regime walk in lockstep.

00:45:27.500 And there was almost no dissenting voices.

00:45:30.400 One or two, okay?

00:45:32.080 On this, I'm not seeing that.

00:45:34.820 They're all over the place.

00:45:35.980 They're scrambled.

00:45:37.180 Which suggests to me

00:45:38.660 that there's a kind of desperation

00:45:39.780 to a lot of these moves.

00:45:41.400 I just want to say the wars are closing in,

00:45:43.060 but, you know...

00:45:44.140 So that just reminds me

00:45:45.260 of, like, the beginning of COVID

00:45:46.280 where they scrambled

00:45:47.020 but then they all kind of lined up after.

00:45:49.620 But, I mean, you might be right

00:45:51.040 that they're splintering

00:45:53.400 their narrative a little bit.

00:45:54.500 But I don't think that means

00:45:55.520 that they've given up. 0.72

00:45:56.380 That just means that they're incompetent.

00:45:58.120 And I think it's important

00:45:59.000 for the bets, you know,

00:46:00.220 for the...

00:46:01.280 You know, our political analysis

00:46:02.700 and the bet

00:46:03.120 are separate things here.

00:46:04.260 I agree with you

00:46:04.900 that some of that is occurring.

00:46:06.820 Remember, the bet is that

00:46:07.860 the regime will intentionally

00:46:09.940 put the woke away.

00:46:11.260 And that's...

00:46:11.980 Go ahead and go to number three

00:46:13.440 because I think number three is correct.

00:46:15.540 I think the phenomenon

00:46:16.200 you talk about is happening.

00:46:17.600 But I don't think

00:46:18.240 that's the regime

00:46:19.060 making a decision.

00:46:20.220 That's a win.

00:46:21.080 And you can't just count...

00:46:21.980 You can't just count

00:46:23.000 right-wing wins

00:46:23.900 as the regime

00:46:25.760 putting the woke away.

00:46:26.620 That's not the same thing.

00:46:27.520 You've got to understand

00:46:28.720 that things take time, right?

00:46:31.760 So in this country...

00:46:32.940 Do you remember

00:46:34.100 when Jeremy Corbyn

00:46:35.020 was the leader of Labour

00:46:35.940 who was an all-out proper

00:46:38.080 communist leftist, right?

00:46:39.460 It took Keir Starmer

00:46:41.460 almost two years

00:46:43.600 to put all those crazies to bed. 0.98

00:46:45.760 And like he literally 0.98

00:46:46.440 was purging them.

00:46:47.300 It was like watching...

00:46:48.460 It was like...

00:46:49.640 He was literally like Stalinist

00:46:50.800 the way he was just

00:46:51.980 absolutely purging the left

00:46:53.840 from the party.

00:46:55.080 And it was like

00:46:55.680 the neoliberals are back in town, right?

00:46:59.440 And I don't know

00:47:00.640 what it is with...

00:47:01.580 I mean, Biden's very hard

00:47:03.780 to get a handle on

00:47:05.760 partly because he's old

00:47:06.940 and incoherent

00:47:07.740 and, you know,

00:47:09.340 everybody knows

00:47:10.040 he's not really in charge.

00:47:12.700 But it seems to me

00:47:13.780 that the Democrats

00:47:14.440 are basically where Labour were.

00:47:16.660 They've let a lot of the crazies

00:47:18.320 take over

00:47:19.580 and it's going to take time.

00:47:24.220 I mean, I've got a different map here.

00:47:27.080 This is something I made ages ago

00:47:30.260 where if you...

00:47:32.920 You know when we talk about

00:47:33.880 Bertrand de Juvenel,

00:47:35.580 rival castles

00:47:36.560 and the different castles

00:47:37.680 that you need to capture

00:47:38.620 in order to, you know,

00:47:42.720 take over the governing

00:47:46.220 and the non-governing elite.

00:47:48.620 I've got one here.

00:47:49.760 We've got one.

00:47:50.440 Twitter.

00:47:51.020 That was Elon Musk, right?

00:47:52.600 And we'll talk about him in a second.

00:47:53.840 But there are many others,

00:47:56.840 23 in all,

00:47:59.780 that the regime,

00:48:02.120 at least at the start of this year,

00:48:04.220 fully controlled.

00:48:05.420 Investment banks,

00:48:06.520 asset managers,

00:48:07.960 central banks,

00:48:09.200 government,

00:48:10.440 lobby groups,

00:48:11.840 MSM,

00:48:13.480 various educational funding bodies,

00:48:15.900 universities,

00:48:16.580 think tanks,

00:48:17.660 the legal profession as a whole,

00:48:19.580 law enforcement,

00:48:20.440 that's the police,

00:48:21.000 the judiciary,

00:48:23.280 secret services,

00:48:24.820 arts institutions,

00:48:26.900 NGOs of various kinds, 0.99

00:48:29.500 corporate management,

00:48:30.960 right?

00:48:31.140 This is your CEO level,

00:48:32.800 okay?

00:48:33.600 And charitable foundations.

00:48:37.040 You should have added the military.

00:48:38.640 They have that one too.

00:48:39.440 Yeah,

00:48:39.640 I deliberately left the military off

00:48:41.940 because,

00:48:44.060 well,

00:48:45.300 reasons.

00:48:46.840 Because if you control the military,

00:48:48.520 that's kind of like a much bigger castle,

00:48:50.540 right?

00:48:51.280 But we can talk about that another time.

00:48:54.700 The important point here,

00:48:56.260 though,

00:48:56.800 is that if you can imagine,

00:48:58.640 there are 23 individual separate wars going on

00:49:04.200 in each of these arenas right now.

00:49:07.260 And in fact,

00:49:07.860 we even know some of the generals,

00:49:09.420 right?

00:49:09.960 The battle against the universities,

00:49:12.160 that's Chris Rufo and his friends,

00:49:14.760 who are leading the charge there.

00:49:17.620 Um,

00:49:19.120 the,

00:49:20.020 uh,

00:49:21.080 you know,

00:49:21.600 uh,

00:49:21.960 let's have a look.

00:49:22.800 Uh,

00:49:23.120 and I'll,

00:49:23.580 and I'll talk you through some of the others,

00:49:24.960 um,

00:49:26.340 uh,

00:49:26.580 as we get through,

00:49:27.300 but it's just something for people to bear in mind

00:49:29.180 that,

00:49:30.220 you know,

00:49:31.840 it could be that you're winning a battle in one place,

00:49:34.420 but you're losing it in another place

00:49:35.940 or that you're nowhere in somewhere in another place.

00:49:38.440 Yeah.

00:49:38.840 Let's work down our list here because otherwise we'll,

00:49:40.820 we'll never get through it.

00:49:41.720 Yeah.

00:49:42.460 So,

00:49:42.900 so we've got,

00:49:44.040 uh,

00:49:44.340 Tucker,

00:49:45.180 Vivek and Elon Musk smashing over to him with a sledgehammer.

00:49:48.420 Boomer cons being forced to shift right. 0.88

00:49:51.120 Because of,

00:49:51.720 because of that,

00:49:52.880 um,

00:49:53.580 we've got bud light,

00:49:55.400 which are now so desperate.

00:49:57.600 They've hired kid rock.

00:49:58.720 Who's literally,

00:49:59.660 I mean,

00:49:59.960 kid rock is literally now a Trump minion,

00:50:02.360 right?

00:50:02.980 And they're hiring him basically begging the American public to start 0.84

00:50:06.840 buying their rubbish beer again, 0.88

00:50:08.800 you know? 0.98

00:50:09.320 But again,

00:50:09.700 like those are,

00:50:10.760 I think you're right that those,

00:50:11.880 those phenomenon,

00:50:13.380 that phenomenon is happening,

00:50:14.280 but isn't that just a win on the right?

00:50:16.360 Is that,

00:50:16.760 is that evidence that the left is putting the woke away or is it just

00:50:20.520 evidence that the right is finally winning a battle?

00:50:23.620 I would say,

00:50:23.920 I would say it's capturing the castle of bud light because bud light,

00:50:27.740 instead of going up,

00:50:29.080 trying to capture and virtue signal to the woke,

00:50:32.120 basically hiring kid rock and hanging out with Donna white.

00:50:35.940 That is virtue signaling to the,

00:50:37.820 to the conservatives.

00:50:38.820 It's virtue signaling.

00:50:39.860 It's mega signaling if you want to put it that way.

00:50:42.160 So in a way it doesn't really matter that I'm behind the Bush hasn't 0.60

00:50:45.440 gone out of business.

00:50:46.500 You were never going to put them out of business,

00:50:48.240 but you know,

00:50:49.120 you've kind of forced them to start begging you instead of begging the

00:50:52.720 wokes.

00:50:53.660 Um,

00:50:54.420 fifth point along similar lines,

00:50:56.120 Disney had one of their worst box office years in recent history to the

00:51:00.260 extent where they fired their CEO.

00:51:02.120 They brought in Bob Iger and,

00:51:04.800 you know,

00:51:04.880 a couple of days before he was feeding with Elon Musk the other day,

00:51:08.080 you know,

00:51:08.260 you know,

00:51:08.460 Elon Musk told him to F off.

00:51:10.220 Um,

00:51:11.100 Iger literally made a statement saying that the product is a bit,

00:51:13.840 had too much political messaging and,

00:51:16.240 you know,

00:51:16.920 people don't want to see these political movies.

00:51:18.800 So he wants to move the Disney product away from politics.

00:51:22.680 So,

00:51:23.040 you know,

00:51:23.960 that,

00:51:24.180 that is basically one of the,

00:51:25.640 I mean,

00:51:25.840 Disney own like half of all the media now,

00:51:28.640 a third of all the media.

00:51:30.100 And that,

00:51:30.640 that's the CEO of Disney saying,

00:51:32.700 listen,

00:51:33.200 I have the intention.

00:51:34.360 I see the problem.

00:51:35.640 I want to put the work away basically,

00:51:37.500 or at least I want to make it more subtle.

00:51:40.000 So it's not so in your face,

00:51:41.220 right?

00:51:41.840 Yeah.

00:51:42.220 I'll,

00:51:42.720 I'll have something to say about that,

00:51:43.820 but go ahead and do six.

00:51:44.580 Cause I think they're related here.

00:51:46.260 Yeah.

00:51:46.660 Uh,

00:51:46.980 the sixth one ESG Vanguard,

00:51:49.680 the biggest asset management firm in the world said,

00:51:54.220 they're going to stop doing ESG essentially.

00:51:57.480 And BlackRock is now under intense scrutiny,

00:51:59.660 um,

00:52:01.120 on ESG measures,

00:52:02.320 not just in every state in America who,

00:52:05.160 who've got a lot of,

00:52:06.840 um,

00:52:07.460 there's a lot of lawfare against BlackRock who are being sued around the

00:52:10.540 board for their ESG practices,

00:52:12.500 but also in Europe now,

00:52:14.500 even the European union,

00:52:16.420 is now saying we're going to start regulating this ESG business and take it

00:52:21.380 away.

00:52:21.640 Like it's not fair that these firms have so much power,

00:52:25.460 right?

00:52:26.740 Seventh point.

00:52:27.780 And I'll just finish the point.

00:52:29.220 Yeah.

00:52:29.460 Let me do five and six real quick,

00:52:31.200 just cause they,

00:52:31.780 they,

00:52:32.120 they work together and cause I'm going to agree with you on seven.

00:52:34.420 So,

00:52:34.780 but I want to bring something up on five and six.

00:52:36.760 So the,

00:52:37.540 the thing with five and six is you're right that these statements have been

00:52:40.580 made publicly,

00:52:41.180 but we have both talked about the way that the ratchet works,

00:52:45.380 right?

00:52:45.720 That they lock in their gains and then they move forward.

00:52:49.180 So I think you're right that Disney and,

00:52:51.680 and some of these investment firms are publicly going to make these

00:52:55.560 statements of,

00:52:56.600 Oh,

00:52:56.620 we're going back to the good old days.

00:52:58.560 We're going to blah,

00:52:59.180 blah,

00:52:59.260 blah.

00:52:59.840 But all of that wokeness is still going to be there. 0.99

00:53:01.820 They're going to,

00:53:02.080 they're going to take a slight edge.

00:53:03.580 They're,

00:53:03.740 they're not going to push things further for a moment,

00:53:05.820 but they're going to lock in all of those gains,

00:53:08.120 all of the wokeness that was,

00:53:09.620 that was already in the pipeline,

00:53:11.420 all of the things that had been foisted on the public.

00:53:13.880 That's just going to get baked in.

00:53:15.140 They're still going to be doing trans kids stuff.

00:53:16.880 They're going to still be doing,

00:53:17.960 you know,

00:53:18.480 replacing characters,

00:53:20.320 color replacement,

00:53:21.320 racial replacement on all these race swaps and stuff on their movies.

00:53:24.300 It's there.

00:53:24.760 They're going to,

00:53:25.520 they're going to continue to do this.

00:53:26.720 They're just going to stop giving as much lip service while they lock those 1.00

00:53:31.800 gains in.

00:53:32.480 And then they're going to accelerate the minute that they think that the coast

00:53:35.320 is clear again.

00:53:36.460 I mean,

00:53:36.720 I,

00:53:37.080 I,

00:53:37.420 I feel like that the right and you and everybody basically overestimate the

00:53:45.280 extent to which the BLM push was a win for the left because BLM has left

00:53:51.860 basically no lasting.

00:53:53.940 I mean,

00:53:54.540 okay.

00:53:54.780 They may have claimed a couple of statues and stuck a few George Floyd's here

00:53:58.980 and there,

00:53:59.400 but in terms of under the hood,

00:54:01.660 there was a,

00:54:02.880 I mean,

00:54:03.120 if I should have put this,

00:54:04.100 this is point of unofficial point 11 here,

00:54:07.040 20,

00:54:07.400 put 2023 saw,

00:54:09.120 there were so many of them.

00:54:10.100 I even forgotten ones,

00:54:11.600 right?

00:54:11.880 This is a huge one.

00:54:13.820 20,

00:54:14.180 2023 saw a massive purging of DEI executives and departments basically across the

00:54:23.340 entire corporate world.

00:54:24.780 Um,

00:54:25.400 to the point where diversity gurus were struggling to be hired.

00:54:30.040 And I think it's like a 75% decrease in DEI stuff.

00:54:36.720 These were all promises that these companies made in the hysteria of BLM.

00:54:40.980 And it's basically fizzled like a firework.

00:54:43.620 It's gone.

00:54:44.340 You know,

00:54:44.580 now BLM is kind of three years away.

00:54:46.760 They've all turned their back on all these things because they've seen the backlash.

00:54:50.300 Um,

00:54:50.780 because you know,

00:54:51.940 they're,

00:54:52.160 they're suffering.

00:54:53.740 Like it's one thing to virtue signal when the economy is going well,

00:54:57.060 the economy is not going well,

00:54:58.860 suffering from inflation.

00:54:59.880 People don't have as much money.

00:55:01.540 Uh,

00:55:01.980 people can see things heading in the wrong direction.

00:55:04.120 And all of these companies,

00:55:05.600 even as big as they are,

00:55:06.880 are struggling to make money in this environment.

00:55:09.220 So it's important.

00:55:10.480 Even,

00:55:10.880 even the vanguards and the black rocks,

00:55:13.040 you know,

00:55:13.740 it's like,

00:55:14.340 they're making,

00:55:15.060 uh,

00:55:15.820 only 8 billion as opposed to like 50 billion or something,

00:55:19.520 or,

00:55:19.840 you know,

00:55:20.640 um,

00:55:21.440 or trillion in the case of these companies,

00:55:23.500 but you understand what I'm saying,

00:55:25.100 right?

00:55:25.340 These are big shifts for them.

00:55:27.520 Um,

00:55:28.280 so I do think that these are all signals.

00:55:31.340 Seventh one is the white boys back in the military ads are on very important. 0.72

00:55:35.400 That,

00:55:35.600 that one's real.

00:55:36.220 I'll give you that one.

00:55:36.880 The regime panicked.

00:55:37.800 I think they saw the recruitment numbers.

00:55:39.420 I think they,

00:55:40.320 they,

00:55:40.840 they started spitting in the eye of people who can actually fight wars.

00:55:44.340 And,

00:55:44.840 uh,

00:55:45.040 they,

00:55:45.240 they realized that,

00:55:46.220 uh,

00:55:46.840 they,

00:55:47.200 they,

00:55:47.500 they could,

00:55:48.000 they could not,

00:55:48.720 uh,

00:55:48.880 roll in the next foreign project with the current recruits they have.

00:55:52.440 So then,

00:55:54.280 um,

00:55:56.620 uh,

00:55:57.120 you see,

00:55:57.520 it's,

00:55:57.760 it's pointless quoting stats of recruitment for the year when these DEI people were still in.

00:56:05.080 You've got to remember there's a lag,

00:56:06.820 right?

00:56:07.720 So it's next year's recruitment numbers are going to need to look at not this year's.

00:56:11.920 They've all just been fired.

00:56:13.240 Those,

00:56:13.520 those executives,

00:56:14.340 those who made those hires.

00:56:15.360 So,

00:56:15.520 uh,

00:56:16.200 anyway,

00:56:17.140 number nine,

00:56:18.400 uh,

00:56:19.200 sorry,

00:56:19.420 number eight,

00:56:20.000 this year's batch of Chris every year,

00:56:21.820 me and my friend Pharaoh review all of the Christmas ads.

00:56:25.700 There was a marked decrease in woke adverts.

00:56:29.920 In fact,

00:56:30.140 there were almost no work adverts.

00:56:32.080 There was a lot of what I would call fresh Prince messaging,

00:56:34.920 the most important advert.

00:56:37.320 And I did see you and Sargon coping.

00:56:39.840 I was going to say,

00:56:40.420 I I'm with Carl Benjamin on this one.

00:56:42.200 And he said,

00:56:42.620 I don't think this was a,

00:56:44.120 yeah,

00:56:44.240 I don't think that's correct.

00:56:45.600 Have a look at Apple's advert,

00:56:48.020 Apple's big Christmas advert for this year.

00:56:50.320 It features,

00:56:51.560 features basically a black woman,

00:56:53.020 right?

00:56:53.580 who,

00:56:54.500 um,

00:56:55.220 works in this kind of horrible little office in London. 0.96

00:56:58.460 And her boss is like an old white guy.

00:57:01.120 And he basically like tells her off,

00:57:03.100 you know,

00:57:03.500 he points to his clock,

00:57:04.740 he points to his watch because she's a little bit late for work.

00:57:08.280 And she basically has like these voodoo fantasies at home where she dreams about killing him.

00:57:15.380 Yeah. 0.60

00:57:15.800 Again,

00:57:16.200 all of this is,

00:57:17.060 you're making my case for him,

00:57:18.300 but keep going.

00:57:19.080 Wait,

00:57:19.720 wait,

00:57:20.420 that is not how the advert is.

00:57:24.300 Then on a way,

00:57:25.980 like he gives her a Christmas present,

00:57:28.140 which makes her kind of,

00:57:31.100 you know,

00:57:31.420 it thaws the ice a little bit.

00:57:33.480 And then she's on her way back home from work one day. 0.61

00:57:36.660 And she sees this,

00:57:37.740 her boss alone in a restaurant,

00:57:40.180 eating a bowl of soup,

00:57:41.560 looking a bit sad.

00:57:43.100 And the advert ends with George,

00:57:46.120 literally George Harrison singing about how we're all the same.

00:57:51.220 You know,

00:57:51.600 that the world living as one,

00:57:53.400 the colorblind,

00:57:54.800 you know,

00:57:55.040 it's literally the Beatles.

00:57:56.300 Okay.

00:57:57.260 As she sits down with her boss and tries to befriend him.

00:58:02.800 You know,

00:58:03.200 after all,

00:58:04.080 he's not that bad.

00:58:05.520 And the whole messaging is maybe the black woman shouldn't have been like, 1.00

00:58:11.140 she's been a bit hasty in her hatred and resentment. 0.92

00:58:13.740 And he's just a human being after all.

00:58:16.040 Isn't that nice?

00:58:17.100 See,

00:58:17.400 this is just a lock in,

00:58:18.920 right?

00:58:19.120 The lock in here is okay.

00:58:20.880 Well,

00:58:21.420 you know,

00:58:21.780 yes,

00:58:22.120 he's bad.

00:58:23.080 Yes. 1.00

00:58:23.280 He's inherently probably a sexist and racist. 0.99

00:58:26.220 Yes. 0.94

00:58:26.400 He probably has power over her because of structural inequalities,

00:58:30.280 but they just decided to tell us to not kill each other this time.

00:58:34.460 Right?

00:58:34.660 Like that's the only difference,

00:58:36.600 right?

00:58:36.840 Normally,

00:58:37.120 I feel like they're playing that radio Rwanda of like,

00:58:40.340 no,

00:58:40.540 you should,

00:58:40.940 you should hate each other the whole time.

00:58:42.620 It's a retreat.

00:58:43.520 I would say it's a retreat to Eddie Murphy,

00:58:48.000 you know,

00:58:48.300 48 hours,

00:58:50.020 you know,

00:58:50.400 I'm a black guy,

00:58:51.340 you're a white guy,

00:58:52.280 but we're both Americans.

00:58:54.920 I don't know.

00:58:56.000 I,

00:58:56.160 I think they're locking in most of that and they're just dialing back the,

00:58:59.460 the most egregious and violent thing they're saying.

00:59:03.020 You know,

00:59:03.540 that's,

00:59:03.860 that's the only thing they,

00:59:04.980 they,

00:59:05.420 they dial back,

00:59:06.340 but we'll have to agree to disagree on that one.

00:59:07.940 All right.

00:59:08.180 Number nine is clearly a win for me.

00:59:09.780 You just put nine up there so I could win this one.

00:59:11.700 Go ahead.

00:59:12.240 Great.

00:59:12.460 Liz McGill actually resigned. 1.00

00:59:15.100 Yeah.

00:59:15.520 Yeah.

00:59:15.960 So she resigned.

00:59:17.720 She was,

00:59:18.560 she was a woke university boss who resigned. 1.00

00:59:22.000 Okay.

00:59:23.000 Claudine Gay is under intense pressure and she was given the backing of the

00:59:28.180 board,

00:59:28.740 right?

00:59:29.420 AKA the kiss of death.

00:59:31.160 It doesn't matter what sport you watch or what field you're in.

00:59:34.640 If you ever get the backing of the board,

00:59:37.680 you are going to be fired within three months.

00:59:41.020 So this is a horrible day.

00:59:42.840 No,

00:59:43.120 this,

00:59:43.320 this is a horrible read.

00:59:44.240 You got a horrible read on this one.

00:59:45.540 So,

00:59:46.240 so the way to read this one is both of the,

00:59:49.680 all of these university presidents came under pressure because they refuse to,

00:59:54.400 you know,

00:59:54.720 ban Palestinian,

00:59:56.020 pro Palestinian or anti Israel protests on their campuses.

01:00:00.080 Right.

01:00:00.400 They all got this simultaneously.

01:00:02.080 However,

01:00:03.280 Liz McGill,

01:00:04.140 who should have been protected under the previous understanding of wokeness was canceled.

01:00:10.060 Yes.

01:00:10.280 She had to resign.

01:00:11.140 However,

01:00:11.860 that's because she was not part of the DEI structure.

01:00:14.640 She did not have the points,

01:00:15.780 the DEI points.

01:00:16.340 Now, 0.64

01:00:16.980 Claudine Gay is black.

01:00:19.040 And even though she had all of these plagiarism accusations that people like Chris Ruffo were bringing to light,

01:00:26.240 Harvard doubled down on her and remove and refuse to remove her. 1.00

01:00:30.300 So what we see here is a,

01:00:31.940 the civil war inside the woe.

01:00:33.680 And,

01:00:34.440 and it's very clear that certain people still have plot armor,

01:00:39.040 but some people are losing their plot armor.

01:00:41.060 Now,

01:00:41.280 that is a very interesting development inside the left.

01:00:44.200 However,

01:00:44.960 that is a clear win for the woke that,

01:00:47.640 that the,

01:00:48.400 the,

01:00:48.640 the true adherence that,

01:00:50.720 you know,

01:00:50.880 the pro Palestine side,

01:00:52.540 the,

01:00:53.120 you know,

01:00:53.360 kind of the DEI aligned hires,

01:00:55.920 they are,

01:00:57.160 are invincible.

01:00:58.960 However,

01:00:59.820 the woke white woman,

01:01:00.860 kind of the,

01:01:01.380 the,

01:01:01.640 the affluent,

01:01:02.480 uh,

01:01:02.960 uh,

01:01:03.680 white women, 0.97

01:01:04.620 uh,

01:01:04.880 white liberal women who used to be defended by it. 1.00

01:01:07.320 They're no longer defended by it.

01:01:08.660 That I think that is a,

01:01:09.860 I think that's a clear victory for the woke,

01:01:11.680 not a defeat.

01:01:12.500 I feel,

01:01:13.500 I feel like,

01:01:14.240 I feel like this is a spiteful reading of the situation.

01:01:17.960 And that if you want McIntyre,

01:01:21.640 we can add a second,

01:01:24.160 you know,

01:01:24.420 like cigars come in different sizes.

01:01:26.220 Oh,

01:01:26.680 is this side bet?

01:01:27.680 I'm here.

01:01:28.520 You want to have a side bet,

01:01:30.200 a little petty Corona on the side.

01:01:32.640 By 14th of May,

01:01:35.260 2025.

01:01:36.340 Do you believe that president gay is still in charge of Harvard? 1.00

01:01:39.900 No,

01:01:40.360 but I don't think.

01:01:41.600 All right.

01:01:42.340 So she's not going to survive.

01:01:43.520 Oh,

01:01:43.720 well,

01:01:44.000 no,

01:01:44.460 no,

01:01:44.640 no,

01:01:44.660 there's,

01:01:45.040 there's a difference.

01:01:45.580 She will eventually move on to something else or she'll quietly be phased

01:01:48.880 out,

01:01:49.500 but it will not be a capitulation to this thing.

01:01:52.120 She,

01:01:52.340 she probably won't be there in 2025,

01:01:54.080 but I think most university presidents are going to turn around like that.

01:01:57.320 I mean,

01:01:57.540 you've got to,

01:01:58.060 you've got to have a look,

01:01:58.900 right?

01:01:59.080 Do you remember that woman in the,

01:02:00.340 in the,

01:02:00.940 in the bud light,

01:02:02.260 they didn't fire it straight away.

01:02:03.640 It took her a couple of,

01:02:04.480 it took her like,

01:02:05.740 it took them like two months to get rid of the executives in charge of bud light.

01:02:09.580 You know,

01:02:10.340 I believe in Rufo Rufo.

01:02:12.900 If you're watching this,

01:02:14.240 you got,

01:02:14.820 you just keep your, 0.99

01:02:16.240 keep your targets on president gay and she'll be gone. 0.99

01:02:20.700 Come the new year. 0.98

01:02:21.860 All right.

01:02:22.540 I'm sure Chris appreciates that vote of confidence.

01:02:24.740 So the 10th,

01:02:28.860 the 10th one is that the economist just a week ago has declared that anti-woke activists are winning the culture war in America.

01:02:37.920 Here's the article.

01:02:38.880 If you want to see it as the economist.

01:02:42.540 And what's really interesting is some of the stats they lay on here because they basically quote some kind of left-wing cope about anti-woke groups.

01:02:54.500 It's kind of not winning in 2021,

01:02:56.820 2022,

01:02:57.320 but I just want to go down to the broader election,

01:03:01.620 broader education policy is yielding to similar pressure.

01:03:04.720 According to education week,

01:03:07.380 44 states have introduced bills or taken other steps to restrict CRT since January of 2021.

01:03:15.720 18 have imposed bans or limits.

01:03:18.380 Conservative activists may have lost most of the school board battles,

01:03:21.580 but in many ways they are winning the war.

01:03:23.620 And there are many other little victories they mentioned along the way in this article.

01:03:28.180 So I'm just saying that it's important to recognize that the war isn't won overnight.

01:03:36.060 You know,

01:03:36.600 great work is being done and it just takes a little bit of time,

01:03:40.980 which is why I set it for May,

01:03:43.060 2025.

01:03:43.720 And of course the empire is going to want to strike back a little bit in the meantime,

01:03:48.160 but every time they do so,

01:03:50.240 they're looking weaker and weaker.

01:03:51.600 I mean,

01:03:51.820 come on,

01:03:52.300 these, 1.00

01:03:52.700 these are really pathetic moves, 0.99

01:03:54.700 these ones against Trump. 0.99

01:03:55.920 And I,

01:03:56.280 I don't think,

01:03:57.780 I mean,

01:03:58.060 let's be, 0.96

01:03:58.360 let's be sick. 0.99

01:03:58.920 I mean,

01:03:59.100 Viva Fry made,

01:04:00.620 I just before I came here,

01:04:02.880 I watched a video by Viva Fry.

01:04:05.300 And he basically just said,

01:04:06.360 like,

01:04:06.540 if you read the scene,

01:04:08.460 this is basically kayfabe for blue and on,

01:04:13.220 right?

01:04:13.460 This is like this,

01:04:15.380 it's literally written in that it,

01:04:18.560 like they've stayed their judgment until January,

01:04:21.100 whatever that means.

01:04:22.200 But it's also written in that,

01:04:24.180 you know,

01:04:24.700 pending a Supreme court judgment,

01:04:26.620 Trump will actually stay on the ballot in circumstances X,

01:04:30.000 Y,

01:04:30.180 and Z.

01:04:30.600 So it's literally like,

01:04:31.640 if you read it,

01:04:32.780 it's not what it seems.

01:04:34.420 And I trust Viva Fry because he's an actual lawyer.

01:04:37.240 So there we are.

01:04:38.860 All right.

01:04:39.060 So I want to go ahead and take a look at a development that has occurred while we were preparing for this.

01:04:47.380 So this is my steel chair.

01:04:48.540 I'm pulling it out from under the ring.

01:04:49.920 All right.

01:04:50.220 So,

01:04:50.820 so razor fist,

01:04:52.600 who I think most people are probably familiar with.

01:04:55.540 He's a,

01:04:55.820 he's a very fun political commentator.

01:04:58.960 He,

01:04:59.400 he makes this prediction.

01:05:00.480 He says,

01:05:00.840 as the state level court in Colorado,

01:05:02.980 using a federal level amendment as a pretext,

01:05:06.560 remove a candidate from a ballot in a federal election is some laughed clean out of court,

01:05:11.680 cock and bull.

01:05:12.380 But the point isn't,

01:05:13.700 isn't for it to be necessarily to stick.

01:05:16.080 It's intended to trigger a cascade to normalize this for other blue purple and purple stage states,

01:05:22.520 which is why it isn't enough to merely overturn.

01:05:24.540 This is a Supreme court level.

01:05:25.980 They need consequences such as disbarment or yes,

01:05:28.300 even prosecution of the prosecutors must be imposed.

01:05:32.480 So he's saying,

01:05:33.080 okay,

01:05:33.520 yeah,

01:05:33.740 maybe they think that,

01:05:34.760 and they obviously,

01:05:35.660 they stayed their own decision to wait for the Supreme court to respond.

01:05:39.520 So obviously there's some questions for in their minds there as to whether even the Supreme court would allow them to attempt to use the 14th amendment in this way.

01:05:47.940 However,

01:05:49.140 I think that razor fist ends up being proven correct because right after he posts this,

01:05:55.720 like,

01:05:55.960 you know,

01:05:56.320 maybe,

01:05:56.820 maybe,

01:05:57.640 uh,

01:05:58.180 five or six hours after he posts this,

01:06:01.180 we get this announcement that the California Lieutenant governor has urged the secretary of state to explore the legal options to remove the former president from California's primary ballot here.

01:06:14.140 And we can see that there's a formal request by the,

01:06:18.860 uh,

01:06:19.680 Lieutenant governor of California to seek any and all means,

01:06:23.520 uh,

01:06:24.100 to remove just like Colorado did.

01:06:25.960 So it's clear that there is now a virtue signaling cascade that's going to occur across all blue states to attempt to remove Trump from the ballot.

01:06:35.920 Now,

01:06:36.060 even if this isn't successful,

01:06:37.540 and I think ultimately it probably won't be successful,

01:06:40.780 uh,

01:06:41.780 because of the kind of conservative Supreme court at the moment.

01:06:45.120 But even if this isn't successful,

01:06:46.720 this is an accelerant,

01:06:48.080 man,

01:06:48.240 you have to agree with that.

01:06:49.380 If every blue state attempts to remove Trump from the ballot,

01:06:53.240 that is going to put things to a fever pitch that,

01:06:57.180 that is just trying to lose.

01:06:59.920 I mean,

01:07:00.280 if the Supreme court overturns one,

01:07:02.640 they'll overturn them all.

01:07:03.500 They'll just overturn all 18 of them.

01:07:05.620 But,

01:07:05.720 but even the attempt has to be an insane acceleration of political tensions in the

01:07:10.760 United States,

01:07:11.580 right?

01:07:11.880 Like,

01:07:11.900 I mean,

01:07:12.720 what,

01:07:12.900 what is this McIntyre?

01:07:14.080 I played Viva Fry.

01:07:15.380 You come back with razor fist.

01:07:17.200 So we're like,

01:07:17.880 we're like,

01:07:18.360 we're like,

01:07:18.380 we're like,

01:07:18.400 we're like,

01:07:18.440 we're like,

01:07:18.460 we're like magic.

01:07:18.880 The gathering was like a counter spell.

01:07:20.920 Okay.

01:07:21.120 I'm going to play Steve Turley on you.

01:07:23.520 Steve Turley's analysis.

01:07:25.060 I'm not prepared.

01:07:25.800 No,

01:07:26.000 I do that.

01:07:26.540 That's the ultimate,

01:07:27.380 the ultimate card.

01:07:28.420 Wait,

01:07:30.100 wait for this zone.

01:07:31.320 Share the screen.

01:07:32.500 Huh?

01:07:33.340 Oh no,

01:07:34.020 no,

01:07:34.400 no,

01:07:34.960 yes.

01:07:38.240 Trump just won 2024.

01:07:40.140 Devastable backlash imminent lives owned.

01:07:44.200 I have,

01:07:44.580 I have,

01:07:45.020 I,

01:07:45.240 how,

01:07:45.440 I,

01:07:45.760 how can I,

01:07:46.620 I cannot respond.

01:07:47.680 Turley clearly is in your corner.

01:07:49.660 And I mean,

01:07:50.920 if you and Steve are on the same side,

01:07:52.860 then how,

01:07:53.440 how could,

01:07:53.860 how could I be right?

01:07:55.500 So I,

01:07:56.700 the Turley card has been played.

01:07:59.660 All right,

01:08:00.340 man.

01:08:00.560 Well,

01:08:01.140 I appreciate you coming in.

01:08:02.660 I still think that there is a clear and definitive case that you should just throw in the towel

01:08:09.460 that I've already won,

01:08:11.920 that this is,

01:08:13.140 this one is over.

01:08:14.020 However,

01:08:14.720 if you continue to be,

01:08:16.240 need the embarrassment of another year of devastating defeats at the hands of my predictions,

01:08:20.540 then who am I to deny that to you?

01:08:23.520 I will continue cigars.

01:08:24.940 What happened on this stream?

01:08:26.680 It was WrestleMania five.

01:08:28.800 You thought you were matching man.

01:08:30.000 And you dropped the big elbow,

01:08:31.700 but then the finger point,

01:08:34.060 the Hulk up,

01:08:35.660 the big boot,

01:08:37.880 the leg drop.

01:08:39.300 Yes.

01:08:41.080 All right.

01:08:41.920 She is.

01:08:42.700 All right.

01:08:43.160 Thanks for coming by.

01:08:44.780 All right.

01:08:45.700 All right,

01:08:46.100 guys.

01:08:46.460 Thanks to academic agent for coming in on the unexpected appearance.

01:08:51.060 But I think we can all agree that I clearly devastated him.

01:08:55.020 It's I,

01:08:55.760 you know,

01:08:55.940 he had a point or two in,

01:08:57.800 in his favor,

01:08:58.460 but I think clearly many of his points were,

01:09:01.080 were overcooked.

01:09:01.820 And I think overall,

01:09:03.060 the,

01:09:03.440 the evidence is clearly in my favor.

01:09:06.840 However,

01:09:07.720 we do have plenty of super jets here.

01:09:10.300 So let me go ahead and start to work my way through here.

01:09:13.700 Tim Miller here says,

01:09:15.140 a lost the moment.

01:09:16.840 He shook hands with you.

01:09:18.400 Yeah.

01:09:18.600 I look,

01:09:19.500 I still firmly believe that the cigar is mine or cigars.

01:09:23.480 I guess there,

01:09:24.260 there's some unspecified number of cigars in question that were discussed.

01:09:28.260 He thought it was only one,

01:09:30.500 even though he said multiples still a point of contention,

01:09:32.980 but that's fine.

01:09:34.180 I think it is,

01:09:35.360 it is over him for him,

01:09:36.640 but I will allow him to continue his attempts to secure the cigar here.

01:09:41.940 Doce Boogaloo for $20.

01:09:43.620 Thank you very much.

01:09:44.260 Sure.

01:09:44.520 The Colorado court has essentially guaranteed two things.

01:09:46.960 The real,

01:09:47.640 the reelection of Donald Trump and that America will be in a hot,

01:09:51.420 I'm not going to say that just because of YouTube before the end of 2025,

01:09:55.440 especially with the U S Supreme court,

01:09:56.920 only restoring Trump to the ballot.

01:09:59.360 Six,

01:09:59.960 three.

01:10:00.460 I would certainly say that I,

01:10:02.360 so I,

01:10:02.820 I would say that Trump was already in a position to win before we got here.

01:10:08.060 Um,

01:10:08.580 I think that that's already was the case,

01:10:11.720 uh,

01:10:12.460 moving,

01:10:13.320 moving towards that.

01:10:14.200 Now,

01:10:14.580 will they strike that,

01:10:16.860 that ability?

01:10:17.960 I mean,

01:10:18.460 if they do,

01:10:19.080 then you really are in a true constitutional crisis.

01:10:21.620 Um,

01:10:22.180 but,

01:10:22.660 but I don't know.

01:10:23.560 We'll,

01:10:23.860 we'll see.

01:10:24.300 I will,

01:10:24.680 will the Supreme court save the left from kind of their own devices.

01:10:28.060 They might,

01:10:28.840 uh,

01:10:29.100 that that's entirely possible,

01:10:30.480 but it's very clear that the left,

01:10:32.240 if the woke is put away,

01:10:33.060 it will not be because the left did.

01:10:35.360 So it's because conservative forces managed to save them from kind of their own,

01:10:39.580 uh,

01:10:40.680 heading towards the cliff.

01:10:41.580 And I think that's the key in the bet.

01:10:42.960 The whole point of the whole point of saying,

01:10:45.080 put the book away.

01:10:45.760 This is the problem is academic agent keeps missing.

01:10:48.520 He keeps mixing in any conservative victory as evidence for his side that the elites are putting the woke away.

01:10:54.560 That's not how that was not the nature of the bet.

01:10:56.940 The bet was that the left would intentionally dial this back,

01:11:01.860 that those in power would intentionally step away from the craziness.

01:11:06.520 And so I don't think he can just bring up every victory by Chris Ruffo or every victory handed down.

01:11:11.580 By say a Supreme court and say,

01:11:12.940 well,

01:11:13.040 that's evidence that the left is putting the woke way.

01:11:15.820 That that's,

01:11:16.400 that's not what that is.

01:11:17.420 You have to show evidence that the left is intentionally.

01:11:20.240 Now,

01:11:20.500 when you say BlackRock is stepping away,

01:11:22.280 when you say Disney is stepping away,

01:11:23.920 when you say that a Biden run U S military is,

01:11:26.620 is looking to change the recruitment.

01:11:28.320 Okay.

01:11:28.860 Those are arguments.

01:11:29.780 Those are real arguments,

01:11:30.680 but just pointing to things that Chris,

01:11:32.660 Chris Ruffo is doing correctly and saying,

01:11:34.580 well,

01:11:34.760 Oh,

01:11:34.920 that's the left putting the woke way.

01:11:36.220 No, 1.00

01:11:36.620 that's garbage. 1.00

01:11:37.260 Those are, 0.99

01:11:37.660 those are cheap points.

01:11:38.400 They don't count.

01:11:40.120 Uh,

01:11:40.480 creeper weirdo here says my argument is the left is too petty.

01:11:43.800 Enough said. 0.64

01:11:44.400 I,

01:11:44.720 I think that's correct.

01:11:45.840 I think that is correct,

01:11:47.520 sir.

01:11:48.040 Uh,

01:11:48.540 David sore here says,

01:11:49.700 Merry Christmas and total or in victory.

01:11:51.960 Thanks to Biden inflation.

01:11:53.560 I can only buy you swishers.

01:11:56.060 Well,

01:11:56.220 thank you,

01:11:56.640 man.

01:11:56.940 I appreciate your donation,

01:11:59.380 even though it will not bring about the finest cigar.

01:12:02.720 I appreciate your support there.

01:12:04.440 Uh,

01:12:04.640 juice bugalow says as a hoppy and the de facto end to the farce of democracy is making me,

01:12:10.300 euphoric again.

01:12:11.340 Yeah.

01:12:11.540 I mean,

01:12:11.780 there's,

01:12:12.060 they're trying to change the name.

01:12:13.560 They're trying to change what democracy means,

01:12:15.600 which is an amazing thing.

01:12:16.920 Uh,

01:12:17.280 but they've done that with all kinds of other,

01:12:19.000 uh,

01:12:19.360 phrases.

01:12:19.740 They've done that with racism and equality and all of these things.

01:12:22.620 So why not try it with,

01:12:24.360 uh,

01:12:25.520 with,

01:12:26.180 uh,

01:12:26.500 with democracy.

01:12:27.540 Right.

01:12:27.920 But,

01:12:28.180 but yes,

01:12:28.600 it is essentially being removed.

01:12:30.380 Whatever democracy used to be,

01:12:32.740 it will not be now,

01:12:33.620 which by the way,

01:12:34.280 I made a video,

01:12:35.220 I think a couple of years ago now about talking about why democracy was already dead.

01:12:39.880 In which I already predicted a lot of this stuff.

01:12:42.500 So if you'd like to see those predictions come true,

01:12:44.860 you can check that out.

01:12:46.180 Uh,

01:12:46.380 binary surfer,

01:12:47.120 how's it going,

01:12:47.580 man?

01:12:47.860 He says,

01:12:48.500 uh,

01:12:48.740 as I've been saying for some time,

01:12:50.240 you cannot just put the woke away any more than you can just turn a jihad in jihadi into an atheist.

01:12:56.120 Too much momentum.

01:12:57.220 I tend to agree with you there.

01:12:58.680 I believe that the woke are true believers.

01:13:01.380 And I think that's a apt comparison that, 0.90

01:13:04.520 uh,

01:13:04.780 that that's like trying to tell jihadists.

01:13:06.620 Oh,

01:13:06.760 well,

01:13:06.900 no,

01:13:07.080 just believe in something else.

01:13:08.260 You know,

01:13:08.640 just,

01:13:08.940 just to stop and believe in something else.

01:13:10.500 That's not how this works.

01:13:12.120 Uh,

01:13:12.520 let's see here.

01:13:13.540 Tiny Rick says the most dangerous animal on the planet.

01:13:16.040 Thank you.

01:13:16.840 Yeah,

01:13:17.120 I guess,

01:13:17.560 you know,

01:13:17.900 depending on how you,

01:13:19.360 they,

01:13:19.680 they,

01:13:20.000 they phrase that,

01:13:20.920 uh,

01:13:21.800 you,

01:13:22.220 you,

01:13:22.360 you could see it that way,

01:13:23.260 but yeah,

01:13:23.680 no,

01:13:23.960 that's definitely,

01:13:25.160 uh,

01:13:25.440 definitely an interesting way for them to address white people in that video. 0.92

01:13:29.200 Uh, 0.97

01:13:30.140 creeper weirdo, 0.87

01:13:31.060 uh, 0.97

01:13:31.620 academic levels of cope.

01:13:33.800 Absolutely.

01:13:34.920 Uh,

01:13:35.160 he says also Hulk Hogan is running in for prez.

01:13:37.880 Come on.

01:13:38.600 Hey,

01:13:38.780 really?

01:13:39.220 Yes.

01:13:39.480 Uh,

01:13:39.920 I do love that.

01:13:40.640 A comes in,

01:13:41.560 uh,

01:13:41.720 you know,

01:13:41.880 glow in the dark says here comes a with the chair.

01:13:44.700 Uh,

01:13:45.220 absolutely had that live commentary as he broke through in to make his case.

01:13:50.400 Uh,

01:13:50.920 binary surfer once again says one of three things will stop Trump.

01:13:54.380 Uh,

01:13:54.820 one,

01:13:55.160 no election,

01:13:55.780 uh,

01:13:56.220 which I don't think will happen to unprecedented fortification.

01:13:59.200 I think that's far more likely or three.

01:14:01.480 Trump is blocked from running again.

01:14:04.000 Uh,

01:14:04.440 nobody is coming to save us,

01:14:05.800 uh,

01:14:06.040 sadly.

01:14:06.500 Yeah.

01:14:06.680 I think that,

01:14:07.440 uh,

01:14:07.980 it's definitely going to be two or three,

01:14:09.760 uh,

01:14:10.280 probably two,

01:14:11.700 uh,

01:14:12.400 over everything.

01:14:13.120 Uh,

01:14:13.600 but,

01:14:13.980 um,

01:14:14.620 you know,

01:14:14.900 that we have all the people hoping that,

01:14:16.600 uh,

01:14:16.960 Trump is blocked from running in kind of the Republican primary,

01:14:19.840 but I don't think that that's going to end up working for them.

01:14:24.180 Uh,

01:14:24.840 let's see.

01:14:25.460 Uh,

01:14:26.020 uh,

01:14:26.300 precocious heretic says if the work of professor Ed,

01:14:29.300 Dutton is accurate.

01:14:30.900 Wouldn't it seem that the woke won't go away for generations for deeply ingrained

01:14:34.000 reasons?

01:14:34.400 Yeah,

01:14:34.780 I think that's true that it's being,

01:14:36.860 uh,

01:14:37.280 that,

01:14:37.760 that the kind of,

01:14:38.700 uh,

01:14:39.520 Leninism has layered it in and that it's going to continue to be the case

01:14:43.860 that they're going to continue to inherit those beliefs and that

01:14:46.360 understanding of the system for a long time.

01:14:48.660 Again,

01:14:49.100 I think a lot of what AA is hoping for is like the retrenchment of the ratchet

01:14:53.720 is the stuff that he's going to,

01:14:55.620 he's going to win on where things continue to be woke,

01:14:58.220 but they're not pushing the language and advancing as fast.

01:15:00.980 So all of the woke,

01:15:01.960 uh,

01:15:02.640 victory stay with us.

01:15:04.120 Uh,

01:15:04.500 but they don't,

01:15:05.140 they don't push as hard.

01:15:06.340 I think he's going to try to count that as a win.

01:15:08.700 Uh,

01:15:09.080 I don't think that really qualifies,

01:15:10.740 but obviously he's going to argue that case.

01:15:12.740 Uh,

01:15:14.200 Tom says,

01:15:15.100 uh,

01:15:15.520 evening,

01:15:15.900 both of you, 0.97

01:15:16.880 which country in the West do you think is the most screwed at the 0.94

01:15:19.360 moment? 0.97

01:15:19.720 Australia,

01:15:20.320 UK,

01:15:20.780 USA,

01:15:21.460 Canada,

01:15:21.840 Germany,

01:15:22.200 et cetera.

01:15:23.060 It's the UK,

01:15:24.000 isn't it?

01:15:24.360 Uh,

01:15:24.560 that's a good question.

01:15:25.360 So the interesting thing is,

01:15:26.560 of course,

01:15:26.820 I think that the United States is kind of ground zero for a lot of

01:15:31.720 this stuff because it is the core of the empire.

01:15:34.140 However,

01:15:34.580 it also,

01:15:35.600 because of that has the most pushback because there is a real

01:15:38.980 opposition inherently built into the United States.

01:15:41.700 I think that,

01:15:42.340 uh,

01:15:42.940 what this was largely a war,

01:15:44.720 uh,

01:15:45.240 on half of the United States from the beginning,

01:15:47.460 uh,

01:15:48.300 and it continues to be so.

01:15:49.860 And so the United States has the most pushback,

01:15:52.560 even though it's kind of ground zero,

01:15:53.780 I think places like Canada,

01:15:55.260 uh,

01:15:56.020 or maybe Germany are probably the most,

01:15:58.340 uh,

01:15:59.040 in danger,

01:15:59.960 uh,

01:16:00.540 Canada in particular,

01:16:01.380 it's entire,

01:16:02.140 the problem,

01:16:03.320 you know,

01:16:03.620 UK is bad. 0.87

01:16:04.640 It's a bad place, 0.84

01:16:05.420 but Canada's entire identity is just not being America.

01:16:08.560 It's just being a more liberal America.

01:16:10.620 That's,

01:16:10.980 that's Canada's entire identity.

01:16:11.700 I know there are some based Canadians out there.

01:16:14.960 I'm,

01:16:15.100 I'm friends with many of them.

01:16:16.260 Uh,

01:16:16.780 but,

01:16:17.060 but in general,

01:16:17.660 the Canada,

01:16:18.380 the Canadian political identity is one of just being a more progressive

01:16:22.160 version of America and being opposed to,

01:16:24.560 uh,

01:16:25.460 to like red America from Canada.

01:16:27.740 So I think you,

01:16:28.640 the Canada might be the most dangerous place.

01:16:31.440 Uh,

01:16:32.180 Kony's current year says,

01:16:33.940 I proposed that should be raised to a cigar box.

01:16:36.020 That was always my intention.

01:16:37.800 I am very confident in my ability to win.

01:16:40.940 I am more than happy to go ahead and officially,

01:16:43.700 uh,

01:16:44.500 increase the bet.

01:16:45.760 Should,

01:16:46.240 uh,

01:16:46.860 academic agent like to put his cigars where his mouth is,

01:16:50.840 uh,

01:16:51.640 which I guess is how you smoke a cigar.

01:16:53.440 But anyway,

01:16:54.080 uh,

01:16:54.980 the devastator here says,

01:16:56.780 uh,

01:16:57.500 my sweet American summer child,

01:16:59.100 or you have not yet one as Thomas.

01:17:01.440 Howell said,

01:17:02.440 count you not the chickens that hatch that haven't yet hatched be waywards as

01:17:07.860 wind.

01:17:08.360 Till they find certainty.

01:17:10.480 Uh,

01:17:10.880 yes,

01:17:11.260 I understand,

01:17:12.220 uh,

01:17:12.600 that I am calling it early,

01:17:14.740 but again,

01:17:15.000 I thought it was the mercy rule.

01:17:16.360 I was just trying to save academic agent.

01:17:18.360 The continued embarrassment of,

01:17:20.780 uh,

01:17:21.320 kind of losing point after point,

01:17:23.020 but it seems like he's determined to battle on even in the wake of these

01:17:27.060 amazing developments.

01:17:27.900 So we'll continue to,

01:17:30.280 uh,

01:17:31.220 to have cigar slam going forward.

01:17:33.260 Tom says probably a silly question is free speech.

01:17:35.840 Some something is free speech,

01:17:37.920 something that if the DR got into power,

01:17:40.160 they should support.

01:17:40.940 If the marketplace of ideas,

01:17:42.360 it doesn't work.

01:17:42.920 It seems,

01:17:43.660 uh,

01:17:44.100 it seems it's a tool your enemies can use to attack you.

01:17:47.700 So the,

01:17:49.820 the most important thing to understand here is what does free speech mean?

01:17:54.460 Uh,

01:17:54.900 in,

01:17:55.240 in context,

01:17:56.080 this free,

01:17:56.540 a lot of people say,

01:17:57.400 well,

01:17:57.560 free speech means being able to say whatever you want,

01:18:00.260 whenever you want.

01:18:01.040 Obviously that has never existed in the United States.

01:18:04.560 Uh,

01:18:05.080 there were blasphemy laws in the United States.

01:18:07.120 There were obvious restrictions.

01:18:08.900 Well,

01:18:09.420 after the first amendment was written on what people can say or do.

01:18:12.920 Uh,

01:18:13.160 along the lines of the first amendment.

01:18:15.920 Uh,

01:18:16.360 I think that,

01:18:17.220 uh,

01:18:17.540 things like pornography or other things that have been qualified as speech under our current,

01:18:23.180 uh,

01:18:23.480 understanding of free speech laws clearly were never the intentions of the founding fathers.

01:18:27.160 And continuing that kind of free speech,

01:18:29.720 that doesn't make any sense.

01:18:32.140 I don't think it's in line with any of the things that actually are intended by free speech.

01:18:36.780 Now what free speech actually probably meant was the ability to oppose,

01:18:41.260 uh,

01:18:42.220 you know,

01:18:42.560 political,

01:18:43.020 uh,

01:18:43.800 candidate to say,

01:18:44.740 okay,

01:18:44.980 I,

01:18:45.280 I,

01:18:45.560 I don't think that this is right.

01:18:47.080 Or I have the ability to,

01:18:48.620 uh,

01:18:49.380 say that the government is wrong about that.

01:18:51.180 That's what free speech is actually entailing.

01:18:52.780 It's not the ability to,

01:18:54.140 to just say anything you want at all times for any reason.

01:18:57.840 So should the,

01:18:59.080 should the dissident right,

01:19:00.680 uh,

01:19:01.020 say that you should empower that?

01:19:02.440 Well,

01:19:02.940 I mean,

01:19:03.280 there's,

01:19:03.600 there's a lot of questions wrapped into that first.

01:19:05.720 We're kind of probably assuming that there would still be,

01:19:08.160 uh,

01:19:09.940 that there would still be democracy in this scenario,

01:19:13.740 because,

01:19:14.420 uh,

01:19:15.460 if,

01:19:15.820 if democracy doesn't exist,

01:19:17.960 then does the free speech even necessarily matter?

01:19:20.180 I think it's very interesting.

01:19:21.400 If you go back and look at the histories of a guy like,

01:19:23.280 uh,

01:19:23.820 like Cassius Dio,

01:19:25.020 he writes one about Octavian taking power,

01:19:27.680 Caesar Augustus,

01:19:28.640 and he's having a debate between kind of,

01:19:32.440 of two of Caesar's most close,

01:19:34.340 uh,

01:19:35.220 uh,

01:19:36.080 advisors,

01:19:36.940 uh,

01:19:37.420 his general and his financial advisor.

01:19:39.300 And one of them is arguing for whether or not you should kind of have free speech,

01:19:44.000 whether you should allow for dissent or,

01:19:46.800 and the other is arguing whether or not,

01:19:48.320 you know,

01:19:48.660 that that really,

01:19:49.380 uh,

01:19:49.780 should exist.

01:19:51.180 And if you're in a politically,

01:19:52.460 you know,

01:19:53.200 secure position,

01:19:54.660 then free speech isn't really a problem because you're not worried about whether or not

01:19:58.680 it's actually going to like wreck your ability to maintain power.

01:20:02.440 However,

01:20:02.720 if you're in a constantly,

01:20:03.660 uh,

01:20:05.100 tumultuous political position,

01:20:06.720 then free speech is more of a danger to your regime.

01:20:10.020 Now,

01:20:10.760 any wise regime that is confident in its ability is going to allow a certain amount of rhetorical

01:20:16.000 freedom because that's a pressure release valve.

01:20:18.980 One of the ways you know that our current regime is actually in serious trouble is they're

01:20:23.520 trying to crack down on what has been ostensibly this freedom of speech in the United States,

01:20:29.200 because that actually increases the pressure.

01:20:32.120 It removes the pressure release valves.

01:20:34.360 Uh,

01:20:34.880 and so should you,

01:20:36.420 uh,

01:20:36.880 support this?

01:20:37.620 It depends.

01:20:38.680 It's,

01:20:38.960 it's,

01:20:39.180 it's really a more complicated question.

01:20:41.540 It's going to depend on the political situation.

01:20:43.120 It's going to depend on,

01:20:44.740 uh,

01:20:45.500 what mechanisms are being deployed in the,

01:20:47.860 in the kind of,

01:20:48.480 in the political system,

01:20:49.660 uh,

01:20:50.260 and,

01:20:50.740 and what the body body politic is capable of.

01:20:53.280 I know that's a little bit of a dodge,

01:20:55.280 but I do think context there does matter.

01:20:58.200 All right.

01:20:59.580 Uh,

01:21:00.640 Bert hole says you got this or,

01:21:02.920 and thank you very much,

01:21:03.800 man.

01:21:04.100 I appreciate your support.

01:21:06.100 Uh,

01:21:06.840 glow in the dark here says right wing,

01:21:08.620 you,

01:21:08.820 you,

01:21:08.980 Oh,

01:21:09.060 dual life points or a box of cigars.

01:21:10.920 My opinion is that it's still a game,

01:21:12.780 but based on history,

01:21:14.180 uh,

01:21:14.900 woke will just be,

01:21:16.140 uh,

01:21:16.720 we'll just regroup and research.

01:21:18.400 I agree with you.

01:21:19.580 Uh,

01:21:19.820 I don't think,

01:21:20.480 I don't think that academic agent has no points,

01:21:22.680 but I think it's clear that at the end of the day,

01:21:24.800 I'm going to end up winning,

01:21:25.740 uh,

01:21:26.420 this one.

01:21:27.860 Uh,

01:21:28.620 let's see.

01:21:30.340 Uh,

01:21:30.840 do someone to skip that question just for the interest of keeping the

01:21:34.440 channel nice and monetized,

01:21:37.980 but thank you for your support.

01:21:39.320 Uh,

01:21:39.880 Prince of Parma there says,

01:21:41.360 uh,

01:21:42.140 support for anti-Satanists.

01:21:43.760 Yes.

01:21:43.940 I just,

01:21:44.380 uh,

01:21:44.600 released a article about,

01:21:46.580 uh,

01:21:46.840 the conservative case against,

01:21:48.960 uh,

01:21:49.540 against satanic alters.

01:21:51.040 Amazing that you have to make that case.

01:21:52.600 These days,

01:21:53.100 but you do.

01:21:53.940 And so I went ahead and published that.

01:21:55.780 I'll probably make a video about it tomorrow.

01:21:58.180 Uh,

01:21:58.900 but,

01:21:59.280 uh,

01:21:59.500 yes,

01:21:59.900 that,

01:22:00.300 that is now an actual debate happening on the right.

01:22:03.360 If you can believe it or not in the year of our Lord,

01:22:06.040 2023.

01:22:07.680 Um,

01:22:08.500 let's see.

01:22:09.460 Uh,

01:22:09.780 do speak blue says,

01:22:10.660 uh,

01:22:10.980 Canada is literally,

01:22:12.100 uh,

01:22:12.600 singing their national anthem in a job now at sporting events.

01:22:17.240 It's so over.

01:22:18.380 Yeah.

01:22:18.720 I'm not really familiar with,

01:22:19.940 uh,

01:22:20.240 events in Canada,

01:22:21.340 but thank you there,

01:22:22.600 sir.

01:22:23.500 Uh,

01:22:24.020 truth enjoyer says,

01:22:25.120 what would it take to break the front enemy distinction alliance between woke Western

01:22:29.120 left and the trad Islamic third world groups?

01:22:31.680 How would conflict between them start,

01:22:34.200 uh,

01:22:34.660 and then play out?

01:22:35.820 So a couple of things to remember about this conflict.

01:22:38.500 I think if the United States was in the position that say Europe was in there,

01:22:43.640 there'd be a very different dynamic and you are seeing parts of the left realize that,

01:22:47.940 uh,

01:22:48.360 they they've kind of put themselves in this position specifically after the events in Israel,

01:22:52.400 all of a sudden,

01:22:53.000 all these people who ignored,

01:22:54.560 uh,

01:22:55.180 the kind of fact that,

01:22:56.580 uh,

01:22:56.880 Islam had transformed that Muslim immigration had transformed their nations suddenly notice 1.00

01:23:01.780 the minute that those people were chanting from the river to the sea.

01:23:04.560 And so,

01:23:05.740 uh,

01:23:06.200 there,

01:23:06.460 I think they already have seen how would that friend enemy distinction break up?

01:23:10.640 Now,

01:23:10.740 the question is,

01:23:11.620 can it crack up and that split occur in the left?

01:23:15.000 Um,

01:23:15.880 with,

01:23:17.180 with kind of the rhetoric that the left has already advanced.

01:23:19.680 I'm not sure it can.

01:23:20.900 I think one group might just win and one group might just lose.

01:23:23.340 You might cheer off a large amount of people from the left who don't agree with the advancing

01:23:28.120 Islamic,

01:23:28.680 uh,

01:23:29.820 uh,

01:23:30.180 kind of,

01:23:30.680 uh,

01:23:31.000 so support in many of those European countries,

01:23:33.320 but I don't know if the left can actually kind of extract itself from that problem.

01:23:39.440 See,

01:23:40.000 one of the problems that,

01:23:41.520 uh,

01:23:41.960 that many Americans or even,

01:23:44.080 you know,

01:23:44.520 other Westerners have when they assess whether the left will break up over this is they think

01:23:48.680 that there's an ideological conflict between conservative Muslims and progressive liberals.

01:23:53.940 Now,

01:23:54.060 obviously there is,

01:23:55.040 right?

01:23:55.340 Like they don't have the same values in that case.

01:23:58.480 Like obviously the guy who,

01:24:00.060 who is,

01:24:00.860 you know,

01:24:01.620 you know,

01:24:02.260 advocating for trans kids does not have an ideological alignment,

01:24:05.980 uh,

01:24:06.860 naturally with a Muslim who prefers Sharia law.

01:24:11.020 However,

01:24:11.400 the thing that they share is the desire to dismantle the European and Christian nations that they are 0.99

01:24:18.400 involved in.

01:24:19.120 Okay.

01:24:19.680 And so their,

01:24:20.820 their alliance was never based on ideological conformity.

01:24:24.300 Their alliance was based on,

01:24:25.960 uh,

01:24:26.480 their ability,

01:24:27.340 their,

01:24:27.560 their shared enemy.

01:24:28.800 And that's what forms the friend enemy distinction.

01:24:31.340 Okay.

01:24:32.140 What breaks the friend enemy distinction when they're,

01:24:35.240 uh,

01:24:35.540 when their stories existentially,

01:24:37.340 uh,

01:24:38.220 threaten each other,

01:24:38.920 we might have gotten to that point and that breakup might come,

01:24:41.580 but I don't know if we're there yet.

01:24:43.240 Uh,

01:24:43.680 finally,

01:24:44.020 the devastator,

01:24:44.780 uh,

01:24:45.280 what are your recommendation conditions to fight the woke?

01:24:47.480 Can we ever escape this living hell conservatives while making minor wins don't seem capable of forcing

01:24:52.460 a complete change in our countries?

01:24:55.160 Well,

01:24:55.780 I think,

01:24:56.180 uh,

01:24:56.500 you know,

01:24:56.740 many people,

01:24:57.520 uh,

01:24:58.040 uh,

01:24:58.340 academic agent has referenced Chris Ruffo's wins multiple times during this.

01:25:02.940 I think that Ruffo is certainly running an experiment on whether or not,

01:25:06.980 uh,

01:25:07.280 whether or not a Linsky tactics can work,

01:25:09.860 uh,

01:25:10.520 in defeating the left.

01:25:11.660 Uh,

01:25:12.040 people like Curtis Yarvin disagree with him on that.

01:25:14.480 I have my own questions,

01:25:16.040 but I think that Chris is doing the Lord's work.

01:25:18.820 I think that he absolutely should run this experiment and I hope for his victory at the

01:25:23.180 end.

01:25:23.760 So what are some of the things you can do?

01:25:25.060 Well,

01:25:25.320 you see,

01:25:25.900 you see some of the tactics that Ruffo is,

01:25:27.660 is the,

01:25:28.180 is deploying.

01:25:29.020 I think that again,

01:25:30.360 as,

01:25:30.760 as I always say,

01:25:31.860 when asked what to do,

01:25:32.920 I think that localism matters that you have a much better case.

01:25:36.600 Uh,

01:25:36.900 for instance,

01:25:37.380 my own state of Florida is a much,

01:25:39.960 uh,

01:25:40.160 has seen a significant transformation,

01:25:42.220 uh,

01:25:43.040 in the last few years.

01:25:43.740 And I think you have a much better chance of winning in that way,

01:25:46.940 uh,

01:25:47.560 than you do looking for these large national victories,

01:25:49.700 though.

01:25:50.060 You do see people like Ruffo having some luck there.

01:25:53.400 Uh,

01:25:54.260 and then Jeb Reggie says the woke can't be put away because the woke is always being put

01:25:59.620 away and brought into the public simultaneously.

01:26:02.780 Wokeness is what offends the public sensibility,

01:26:05.420 which is done strategically.

01:26:06.980 Uh,

01:26:07.440 Jeb,

01:26:07.860 I would agree with part of that,

01:26:09.400 though.

01:26:09.520 I do think the ability of them to wield it strategically has lost.

01:26:13.180 So I do agree that the woke will never be put away permanently because it's key to their 1.00

01:26:17.760 advancement,

01:26:18.220 but I think they're losing the ability to even put it away strategically to advance their

01:26:22.860 causes correctly.

01:26:24.140 And I think this is the core of our argument.

01:26:26.460 I think that,

01:26:27.420 I think even if you ask academic agent,

01:26:29.240 he would say that the woke would never be put away forever.

01:26:32.440 He's simply saying that we'll be strategically put away for a time.

01:26:35.400 And our argument is whether or not they have the ability to do that,

01:26:38.420 whether they have the self-control to do that.

01:26:40.800 I don't think they can.

01:26:41.980 He thinks that they can.

01:26:43.540 Uh,

01:26:43.720 and so that's kind of the,

01:26:45.180 the essence,

01:26:46.020 the core of the cigar slam disagreement.

01:26:48.220 All right,

01:26:48.720 guys.

01:26:48.980 Well,

01:26:49.100 it's been a great stream.

01:26:50.040 Really fun.

01:26:50.820 Lots of questions.

01:26:51.700 Appreciate you guys coming by.

01:26:52.900 And of course,

01:26:53.560 great to have academic agent burst through and do the run in to bring his steel chair of

01:26:58.880 counter arguments against,

01:27:00.200 uh,

01:27:00.840 my video here.

01:27:01.700 I still think that foreign victory is imminent. 0.99

01:27:04.940 I think it's very clear,

01:27:05.920 uh,

01:27:06.600 who,

01:27:06.940 who is winning at the moment,

01:27:08.080 but,

01:27:08.740 uh,

01:27:08.980 it looks like academic agent is,

01:27:10.600 is not ready to concede this obvious victory yet.

01:27:13.880 And so I will continue to have to humiliate him in this ongoing battle.

01:27:17.960 For the cigars.

01:27:19.840 Uh,

01:27:20.220 all right,

01:27:20.460 guys,

01:27:20.660 if it's your first time coming by the channel,

01:27:22.220 please make sure that you go ahead and subscribe.

01:27:24.080 Make sure you hit the notification bells.

01:27:25.780 A lot of people are missing stuff.

01:27:27.220 I think you two algorithm is having,

01:27:29.120 uh,

01:27:29.840 um,

01:27:30.220 you know,

01:27:30.520 all this stuff is hiding.
