00:00:08.000 Hey, everybody.
00:00:09.000 Today, we dive into the rise of the micro-tyrants.
00:00:14.000 We are seeing a dramatic increase in indecency, the lack of reason, and the worse aspects of our society have more power than ever.

00:01:02.000 Important episode about what we can do to actually stop the spread of tyranny in your neighborhood, your grocery store, all around you.
00:01:10.000 Buckle up.
00:01:11.000 Here we go.
00:01:12.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:01:14.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:01:16.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:01:19.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:01:23.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:01:24.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:01:25.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:33.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:42.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:44.000 The rise of the micro tyrants.
00:01:47.000 Historically, tyrants have weaponized instruments of the state to exact their authoritarianism.
00:01:54.000 We've talked at length about the Red Guard in Mao's China or the KGB in Stalin's Russia.
00:02:01.000 Often military dictatorships, such as Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, they're always using tyrannical forces to be able to enforce their worldview.
00:02:12.000 But in America, the revolutionaries right now, in this very moment, are attempting to get from point A to B, namely a liberal democratic republic of law.
00:02:24.000 But in America, the revolutionaries, right now, in this very moment, by attempting to get from point A to B, namely a constitutional republic of law and order to a socialist one by way of anarchy.
00:02:37.000 Anarchy has now almost become a gateway drug to authoritarianism.
00:02:41.000 Make everything seem crazy, and then you have a reason to take everyone's life over.
00:02:46.000 Defund the police seems to only apply to lawless behavior.
00:02:50.000 They won't enforce laws if you are breaking them up for social justice, which is just code for cultural Marxism at this point, which is also, by the way, being mandated in college curriculums all across the country.
00:03:03.000 So they're attempting to sow chaos in the streets because chaos actually achieves their end.
00:03:10.000 Chaos is a necessary ingredient so that they can achieve their authoritarianism.
00:03:16.000 But the left will turn the forces of law enforcement against the law-abiding citizens who are rebelling against the fascism of the state.
00:03:24.000 We see this in unlimited examples.
00:03:26.000 Most recently, in Los Angeles, Mayor Eric Garcetti, who is the mayor of Los Angeles, just announced that he'll be deploying the Department of Water in power to shut off water and power to homes and businesses that are egregious offenders.
00:03:43.000 This from CBS News.
00:03:45.000 Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said on Wednesday that he is authorizing the city to shut off utility service to properties where large parties and gatherings are held.
00:03:55.000 Garcetti said that starting Friday, the LA Department of Water and Power will cut off water and power service in egregious cases where unpermitted large parties and gatherings take place.
00:04:05.000 Later in the article, it reads, this comes days after a large house party in the Beverly Crest neighborhood of Los Angeles ended in a shooting that left one woman dead and two others hospitalized.
00:04:16.000 Police later said the killing was believed to be gang-related.
00:04:20.000 So a gang fight results in your power being turned off.
00:04:23.000 And we're all supposed to believe that the killing of George Floyd means we need to change the name of the Washington Redskins.
00:04:30.000 They will use whatever excuse they have to seize total control and power.
00:04:37.000 It doesn't matter if it's related or connected.
00:04:40.000 So Los Angeles is seeing crime go through the roof.
00:04:43.000 Gavin Newsom has just announced that he is going to let out 16,000 prisoners early from prison.
00:04:51.000 We are seeing anarchy and chaos in the streets all across America.
00:04:55.000 And because of that, here's why you need to be thinking about home security.
00:04:59.000 Most home security companies trap you with very high prices, tricky contracts, and lousy customer support.
00:05:05.000 So while there are a lot of options out there, there's only one no-brainer, SimplySafe.

00:05:59.000 So I have a couple thoughts on the idea of Mayor Eric Garcetti shutting off the water, even though there is gang violence that is spreading throughout that very neighborhood.
00:06:08.000 But he thinks it's the fact that they have water and power and they must be penalized.
00:06:12.000 He says egregious violations.
00:06:14.000 My first thought, I presume this is a very loose definition that allows him to decide what activities are egregious and which aren't.
00:06:23.000 So rioting isn't egregious, nor is 100,000 protesters in the streets of Los Angeles.
00:06:28.000 Even Czar Fauci is not willing to admit that protesters aren't spreaders of the virus.
00:06:34.000 Remember this with Congressman Jim Jordan, play tape.
00:06:37.000 And we know the protests actually increased the spread of the virus.
00:06:40.000 You've said that.
00:06:42.000 I said crowds.
00:06:43.000 I didn't say specifically.
00:06:45.000 I didn't say protests do anything.
00:06:47.000 So the protests don't increase the spread of the virus?
00:06:49.000 I didn't say that.
00:06:50.000 You're putting words in my mouth.
00:06:51.000 No, I just want an answer to the question.
00:06:53.000 Do the protests increase the spread of the virus?
00:06:56.000 I don't have any scientific evidence on anything.
00:06:58.000 I can tell you that crowds are known, particularly when you don't have a mask, to increase the acquisition and transmission.
00:07:06.000 No matter what.
00:07:07.000 You don't have a position on whether the protests increase the spread of the virus or don't increase the spread of the virus.
00:07:13.000 I'm saying that crowds, wherever the crowds are, can give you an increased probability that there's going to be acquisition and transmission.
00:07:23.000 But do you understand Americans' concern?
00:07:26.000 And strangely, Mayor Eric Garcetti says unpermitted. 0.88
00:07:30.000 I'm sure a BLM Incorporated, which basically is Black Lives Matter Incorporated laundering money under the auspices of trying to call everyone that they are racist, requires 100 people to paint it on the street, which would be permitted by Garcetti. 0.67
00:07:47.000 But a hundred people that come out to paint a Baby Lives Matter mural would constitute a public health concern and wouldn't be granted a permit. 0.89
00:07:55.000 But it's exactly this arbitrary application of the rules in favor of what the tyrants want is exactly their point.
00:08:03.000 They want one thing for you and your beliefs and another for their worldview.
00:08:08.000 They want strip clubs and pot dispensaries open in New Jersey, but not gyms where people can get healthy.
00:08:14.000 We have an entire interview.
00:08:15.000 I encourage you to listen to our sister episode, Ian Smith, who might go to jail because he has kept his gym open despite no virus cases, and the tyrants are coming after him.
00:08:25.000 So all this leads to my larger point.
00:08:28.000 When we allow autocrats like Garcetti, Newsom, de Blasio, Whitmer, and New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy to act like dictators, we are enabling tyranny up and down the ladder of power.
00:08:44.000 And it's infecting the thinking of everyday normal Americans.
00:08:49.000 So how are they doing it?
00:08:51.000 Well, the left is using fear to create a citizen army of micro tyrants.
00:08:59.000 The left's operatives in the news media have stirred up a mob to enforce these things themselves. 0.56
00:09:06.000 So now we have the Black Square Police. 0.77
00:09:08.000 We have the Mask Police. 0.91
00:09:10.000 We have pumped our citizens' minds so full of jealousy, envy, which is what BLM is all about, and fear, the Chinese coronavirus, that they are willing to do absolutely ridiculous things to enforce their tyranny on you and me. 0.87
00:09:29.000 This is what cancel culture is ultimately rooted in: power, control, which is the exact opposite of freedom. 0.95
00:09:38.000 We are creating and enabling micro-tyrants everywhere.
00:09:45.000 So I mentioned the mask police previously.
00:09:48.000 Consider this story.
00:09:49.000 A California couple filed a police report saying they were maced by a woman for not wearing a face mask in a San Diego dog park.
00:09:58.000 A few minutes after complaining to the couple about not wearing a mask, the woman returned and started spraying mace at the husband.
00:10:06.000 The news outlet that covered the story said this: quote, the lady who maced him automatically started saying stuff about us not wearing a mask when we were social distancing.
00:10:16.000 There was no one near us, the wife told the outlet.
00:10:19.000 My husband, being a good guy, walked in front of her and was like, hey, calm down, please.
00:10:23.000 Don't do this. 0.99
00:10:24.000 Then she grabbed him and just started macing him. 1.00
00:10:26.000 She used the entire can on him.
00:10:30.000 Two months earlier, video showing a group of furious shoppers berating a woman who wasn't wearing a face covering at Staten Island ShopRite went viral over Memorial Day weekend, play tape.
00:10:50.000 Get out!
00:10:51.000 Get out! 1.00
00:10:52.000 Loose your girls! 1.00
00:10:55.000 Get out! 0.99
00:11:03.000 And for those of you that can't see the video, this is just a total mob that is descending on a woman for not wearing a face mask. 1.00
00:11:10.000 And it was encouraged and supported by Alyssa Milana, who's a total fraud and actually has very low talent. 1.00
00:11:16.000 She's not able to succeed in anything at all. 0.98
00:11:19.000 And I hope that she'll be able to find meaning in her life because she's a miserable person. 0.88
00:11:24.000 She tweeted out, quote, never been prouder of growing up in Staten Island. 0.81
00:11:28.000 Sam Biederman, a New York City Department of Parks and Recreation official, wrote, In Staten Island, they call this asking her politely to leave.
00:11:36.000 And a shop right corporate spokesperson responded in part by saying, preventing the spread of COVID-19 is a shared responsibility.
00:11:44.000 Man, these people would have been phenomenal KGB officers.
00:11:48.000 These people would have been ideal Red Guard members in Mao's China.
00:11:53.000 So take this article from the Miami Herald recently advising people on, quote, when it was okay to, quote, go off.
00:12:01.000 One of the reasons, they said, when someone at the park isn't wearing a mask.
00:12:05.000 On the first day of Open Parks in Miami Beach, the city issued 252 warnings for people not wearing masks.
00:12:13.000 This is why we can't have nice things, people.
00:12:15.000 You don't need a mask if you engage in strenuous activity.
00:12:18.000 But real talk, you're not, it says.
00:12:21.000 When someone at the grocery store isn't wearing a mask, these guidelines say.
00:12:25.000 This is quarantine 101.
00:12:26.000 You have to wear a mask in groceries or pharmacies.
00:12:29.000 Everybody should know this. 0.99
00:12:31.000 If they are not wearing masks, they've just flown in from the Andromeda Galaxy and they haven't been keeping up with the intergalactic news or they are making some kind of idiotic point. 1.00
00:12:40.000 And we do mean idiotic. 1.00
00:12:41.000 So journalists are encouraging, advising, and abetting this micro-tyranny. 1.00
00:12:48.000 So what happens when it goes too far?
00:12:50.000 So take this example out of Philadelphia recently.
00:12:53.000 A white Philadelphia bar owner was caught on video pulling a gun on a black man, yelling at people for not wearing a face mask at a restaurant, according to News One.
00:13:02.000 I'm not saying either of those people were in the right.
00:13:05.000 And thankfully this incident ended without anyone being hurt.
00:13:08.000 But this is the natural extension of these micro-tyrants.
00:13:12.000 Just like macro-tyrants are just tyrants, people will eventually stand up and fight back.
00:13:18.000 Now I'm going to say more on this specific incident in Philadelphia.
00:13:22.000 But first, I want to tell you about ExpressVPN.
00:13:25.000 ExpressVPN is the software that I and thousands of my fans use every day to protect our data online.
00:13:31.000 In the time since I started using ExpressVPN, hacking methods have grown even more sophisticated.
00:13:37.000 I'm sure many of you are working from home these days, and without your IT department to protect you from online threats, it's important that you take action on your own to secure your devices you use for work.
00:13:48.000 That's why I recommend using ExpressVPN for the best possible protection imaginable.
00:13:54.000 I've been talking about ExpressVPN on my show for so long now that you already understand why encrypting your network is so important, but some of you still haven't acted.
00:14:02.000 Why? 1.00
00:14:03.000 Do you just want the Chinese to have access to your phone? 0.98
00:14:05.000 That's why you have to go to expressvpn.com slash Charlie. 1.00
00:14:09.000 You might be thinking that security threats don't affect you personally, but not using ExpressVPN is like leaving your front door unlocked every single time you go outside.
00:14:18.000 Sure, nothing might not happen for years.
00:14:21.000 When a break-in does happen, it's devastating.
00:14:23.000 One of the earliest ways to secure your internet data is with ExpressVPN.
00:14:28.000 You click one button on your computer or smartphone and you're protected.
00:14:32.000 So right now go to expressvpn.com slash Charlie.
00:14:35.000 Expressvpn.com slash Charlie.
00:14:37.000 Secure your device.
00:14:39.000 Expressvpn.com slash Charlie. 0.57
00:14:42.000 And again, I'm not saying that pulling a gun on anybody is the answer, but the surge of micro-tyranny across America should produce a counteractive surge of courageous people and patriots standing up.
00:14:54.000 So here's how it works.
00:14:56.000 They instill fear in our population.
00:14:58.000 And therefore, the individual who might work at a grocery store or who might be in charge of the boarding process at a certain airline, all of a sudden, they have a new inflated importance.
00:15:10.000 Kind of like the importance that a referee has in a basketball game or an umpire in a baseball game.
00:15:16.000 These people now get to have all the eyes on them and act morally superior.
00:15:20.000 Now, we already know that about 10% of the American population is sociopathic.
00:15:25.000 Part of that population ends up in prison.
00:15:27.000 Much higher likelihood of people that unfortunately suffer from that sort of syndrome of being sociopaths actually end up committing crimes.
00:15:35.000 But the people that end up not doing that, and they might be existing in our culture in every possible job you can imagine, well, now all of a sudden, they get to be very important.
00:15:43.000 Just everyday citizen walking down the street gets to be part of Mao's Red Guard, like the mask police.
00:15:50.000 Now, I'm not making any commentary on whether or not some of these people should be wearing masks to prevent themselves. 0.51
00:15:55.000 We've talked about on previous episodes on the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:15:58.000 We've gone deep into that, and I encourage you to check out those episodes.
00:16:00.000 Instead, I think it's very appropriate to ask the question: is this healthy for our country?
00:16:05.000 Is this healthy to have people that no one voted for, that they were never told to have this kind of power, to all of a sudden be emboldened to be able to make these massive, tyrannical, dictator-like decisions on us all across the country?
00:16:20.000 Where does it end? 0.99
00:16:22.000 Where does it end when all of a sudden these micro-tyrants all of a sudden start to become very, very dangerous? 0.99
00:16:28.000 So, do we have any precedent for this? 0.98
00:16:30.000 Yes.
00:16:31.000 You see, the Soviet Union was not made possible just because of Joseph Stalin.
00:16:37.000 When you do a deeper dive into Soviet history, you will see that it wasn't just the tyrant Stalin that was able to take power.
00:16:47.000 It was the fact that entire culture basically started to emulate and give cover for Joseph Stalin's tyranny. 0.59
00:16:55.000 You see, in order for a communist dictatorship to set in, you must be able to have so much widespread fear and paranoia that thousands of little Joseph Stalins are able to be in control.
00:17:11.000 So, in reality, when we look at the history of the Soviet Union, it was the small villages that fell, the tens of thousands of small villages that fell one after the other because Joseph Stalin asked himself to be multiplied.
00:17:29.000 And how is that any different than what's happening now?
00:17:32.000 I'm sure a lot of you have dealt with this in one way or the other, where you might not be wearing your mask completely correctly.
00:17:36.000 Might be an Uber driver, might be a passenger on the plane next to you, someone at Walmart, and they just go off on you.
00:17:42.000 They say, Sir, why aren't you wearing a mask?
00:17:45.000 I mean, this happened to me recently, where I had my mask on fine, and I actually went down to go use Apple Pay.
00:17:52.000 And if any of you know how Apple Pay works, it takes face identification.
00:17:56.000 So, I wasn't taking off my mask to be cute or to make a scene.
00:18:01.000 I was literally dropping my mask so I could pay for a service at a coffee shop.
00:18:05.000 And the guy said, You need to keep your mask on.
00:18:07.000 I said, Well, sir, I need to pay for my drink.
00:18:11.000 You just said that I can use Apple Pay to pay for my iced coffee.
00:18:15.000 And he said, Well, why do you need to take your mask off?
00:18:17.000 Well, because it's mask identification.
00:18:18.000 He's like, Well, make it quick and I'm going to hold my breath.
00:18:21.000 And I just felt to myself, How awful that interaction with that individual became just because he now felt the need and the flexibility, and quite honestly, the ability to become a tyrant.
00:18:34.000 And we have to be willing to admit, a lot of people actually want to be tyrants.
00:18:40.000 I know that might be a hard thing for those of us that are decent and reasonable to admit.
00:18:45.000 I understand that might be a hard thing for some of us that enjoy Socratic discourse and dialogue and opposing ideas and consider ourselves to be actually very tolerant of the other side.
00:18:58.000 But there are millions of people out there that actually dream of this kind of power grab.
00:19:04.000 They fantasize for the ability, the authority to be able to tell you how to live your life.
00:19:11.000 And the bigger picture point is this actually creates really unhappy people.
00:19:17.000 This creates a miserable society where every person that might be temporarily delivering you a service is all of a sudden empowered to do something nasty to you.
00:19:29.000 And if we don't stand up to this, we will end up like China, where drones manned by the state police force are patrolling neighborhoods, scolding people for breaking social order.
00:19:41.000 They yell messages like, go home and wash your hands.
00:19:44.000 Do not come outside unless necessary.
00:19:46.000 Where is your mask?
00:19:46.000 Wear your mask.
00:19:47.000 Staying at home is contributing society.
00:19:49.000 In Las Vegas, they have an order.
00:19:52.000 I couldn't believe it.
00:19:53.000 No shoes, no shirt, no mask, no service.
00:19:57.000 They shame you into wearing the mask at all costs, always.
00:20:01.000 And if you don't, they will deploy Mao's Red Guard against you.
00:20:06.000 At this rate, we're going. 0.59
00:20:07.000 I don't think we have to fear our federal government taking this posture, but it would not surprise me to hear that this becomes common practice in a place like California for regular citizens, otherwise known as micro-tyrants, to man their own drones and enforce the approved social dogmatic orthodoxy on their fellow citizens.
00:20:27.000 It would not surprise me if all of a sudden we start to see people being ranked by their city governments, their city councils for not having proper mask protocol, for not socially distancing correctly.
00:20:40.000 We have now abdicated what we knew as pre-existing freedom and liberty to such centralized control that we might never get that freedom and liberty back.
00:20:51.000 You know, people say to me, Charlie, I can't wait to a time when we don't have to wear masks.
00:20:55.000 I say, who's to say that time will ever come?
00:20:58.000 Where's your guarantee of that?
00:21:01.000 How do you know for certain that we'll ever go back to being able to see people's faces together?
00:21:06.000 How do you know for certain we'll ever have baseball games again?
00:21:09.000 You know that?
00:21:10.000 Hope you're right.
00:21:12.000 Can you give me examples of how things continually and always get better and how civilizations actually might not inevitably collapse when you allow such tyranny to exist?
00:21:21.000 Who's to say that it will not spread, take hold, fasten, and the sociopaths will rule our entire society?
00:21:28.000 I hope that's the case.
00:21:30.000 But don't be so sure.
00:21:32.000 Don't be so sure things are going to go back the way they were.
00:21:35.000 The only way they will is if we actually start standing up and calling out the tyrannies wherever they exist, calling out the authoritarians.
00:21:42.000 Who's to say that two-year-olds aren't going to be forced to wear masks at all times?
00:21:47.000 Hope so.
00:21:48.000 People say, Charlie, you're being alarmist.
00:21:50.000 Things will go back to normal.
00:21:51.000 Really?
00:21:52.000 Did things go back to normal after abortion was legalized?
00:21:57.000 And we exterminated and terminated 61 million unborn children since Roe versus Wade. 0.51
00:22:03.000 Did things go back to normal then?
00:22:04.000 Do things go back to normal since BLM has taken power and the riots and the arson and the looting?
00:22:11.000 And don't hold fast that all of a sudden the human inclination is to go back to stability.
00:22:18.000 It isn't.
00:22:19.000 And in fact, actually, stability and normalcy in the 20th century, especially, was the exception, not the rule.
00:22:29.000 The rule is actually tyrants, micro-tyrants, making open-ended promises, judging people on immutable characteristics, and trying to get more and more power.
00:22:41.000 There's a very important book I want to share with you that is more about psychology, and it's been very instructive for a thinker that I care a lot about, Dr. Jordan Peterson.
00:22:50.000 It's actually our book of the week at thinker.org/slash Charlie.
00:22:53.000 A lot of you know about thinker, th-h-i-n-k-r.org.
00:22:57.000 It allows you to internalize and summarize very important books very quickly and very comprehensively.
00:23:05.000 So the book that we have chosen for this week is Modern Man in Search of a Soul by Carl Jung.
00:23:12.000 Many of you may or may not know there are two major psychologists that basically built psychology as we know it, Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung.
00:23:21.000 Jung probably won out a lot of the arguments, but Freud got a lot right too, got a lot wrong as well.
00:23:26.000 But in the book, Modern Man in Search of a Soul, it connects exactly what we're talking about because what we're really living through is the spiritual poverty of the left in the West.
00:23:39.000 This leaves us very vulnerable to awful and terrible ideas that are not rooted in truth, namely utopian ideas here on earth, such as socialism and Marxism, for example, which ultimately leads to tyranny.
00:23:54.000 Again, I want to say this.
00:23:55.000 This is Dr. Jordan Peterson's favorite author and thinkers.
00:23:58.000 The number one thing to know about Carl Jung is that he was a counterweight to Freud, as I mentioned.
00:24:04.000 And all of this you can be found on thinker.org/slash Charlie.
00:24:08.000 And I just want to brag more on Carl Jung.
00:24:10.000 If you don't know who Carl Jung is, you're missing out.
00:24:12.000 He was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who was founded in analytical psychology.
00:24:18.000 His work has been influential not only in psychiatry, but also in anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy, and religious studies.
00:24:26.000 He came to the attention of the Viennese, which means Vienna, from Vienna, founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud.
00:24:33.000 The two men conducted a lengthy correspondence and collaborated on initially joint vision of human psychology.
00:24:41.000 Freud saw in the younger man the potential, basically an error.
00:24:46.000 He had been seeking to carry on his new science of psychoanalysis.
00:24:50.000 Jung's research and personal vision, however, made it impossible for him to bend over to his older colleague's doctrine, and schism became inevitable.
00:24:59.000 This division was personally painful and was to have historic repercussions lasting well into the modern day.
00:25:06.000 Jung had completely different opinions on human development, especially around the mother and father role.
00:25:14.000 He created some of the best-known psychological concepts, including synchronicity, archetypical phenomena, the collective unconscious, and the psychological complex, and extroversion and introversion.
00:25:30.000 Very impressive guy.
00:25:31.000 So here's what you'll learn in Modern Man in Search of a Soul, which again is our thinker.org slash Charlie book of the week, T-H-I-N-K-R.org/slash Charlie.
00:25:40.000 The first thing that is a really important insight is the truly modern man is one who's taken on the struggle for higher consciousness and managed to escape the herd mentality.
00:25:50.000 The modern man is proud of humanity's accomplishments, chastened by its capacity for evil and searching for hope.
00:25:58.000 You'll also learn that the West has become materially enriched and spiritually impoverished.
00:26:03.000 Totally agree at that.
00:26:04.000 The West has dominated the East politically and economically, but the East is gaining spiritual ground in the West.
00:26:10.000 And that the realization that physical symptoms sometimes have non-physical roots has profound implications for medical and psychotherapist practice.
00:26:19.000 There must be a more collaborative spirit between the therapist and the clergyman.
00:26:24.000 It's a great book.
00:26:25.000 You can find it on thinker.org/slash Charlie, T-H-I-N-K-R dot org slash Charlie. 0.98
00:26:31.000 Please listen to our sister episode with Ian Smith, where we talk about someone who's standing up to these micro-tyrants. 0.99
00:26:38.000 All it takes for evil to prosper is for good men and reasonable people to do nothing. 0.97
00:26:44.000 Edmund Burke said that many, many years ago.
00:26:46.000 Problems that are not confronted multiply.
00:26:50.000 If you do not stand up against the small tyrannies, the big ones are going to horrify us all.
00:26:55.000 Remember, when people were sent off to the gulags, it wasn't one button that eliminated everyone.
00:27:01.000 It was the people that loaded the trains.
00:27:03.000 It was the people that put them in the camps.
00:27:06.000 The people that polished the weapons that would soon kill millions of people.
00:27:11.000 The people that built the camps.
00:27:13.000 Tyranny is a team sport.
00:27:16.000 It's not a singular exercise.
00:27:18.000 It's a team sport of a cooperative culture that decides it doesn't care about individual initiative or liberty anymore.
00:27:25.000 Are you on team tyranny or are you on team freedom?
00:27:29.000 If you're on team tyranny, then go walk outside right now and scream at someone for not wearing a mask.
00:27:36.000 If you're on Team Freedom, then find the tyrants, look them in the eyes, and tell them they're cowards until they stop exploiting the weak because they might themselves be in a position of strength.
00:27:49.000 Tyranny takes millions of moving parts to enact itself.
00:27:53.000 We know this right now: there's a million Muslims in concentration camps in China, and no one really seems to care.
00:27:58.000 One million Muslims right now are in concentration re-education camps in China, and we say, never again, this is never going to happen again.
00:28:06.000 We're lying to ourselves when we say that.
00:28:08.000 It's happening right now.
00:28:10.000 There's another re-education campaign right now in China that would make the 20th century look like a repeat. 0.60
00:28:20.000 They'll make this look like a repeat of the 20th century. 0.85
00:28:23.000 So we have a decision to make.
00:28:25.000 Either you're going to stand up against authoritarianism now and not allow the worst aspects of society to all of a sudden have unrestricted power, or we're going to stand or we will dissolve as a society.
00:28:41.000 It's in your hands.
00:28:43.000 It's in our civilization's hands.
00:28:46.000 If you look at how these massive, unspeakable, horrific, murderous campaigns started, it started with decent people shutting up, reasonable people backing away.
00:28:58.000 And next thing you know, the sociopathic narcissists have all the power, and we have to bend the knee to them.
00:29:04.000 I'm never going to do it.
00:29:05.000 That's why I'm doing the podcast that we're doing.
