00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here.
00:00:03.000 Today, I don't want to talk about news stories as much as I want to talk about strategy for online conservatives.
00:00:10.800 I've been seeing people go after Prime Minister Mark Carney for things that are just not useful at all.
00:00:17.700 And in fact, if there was another election in two years, stuff like this will make it easier for Mark Carney to be re-elected and potentially have a majority government.
00:00:28.060 What am I talking about?
00:00:29.120 I'm talking about stuff like this, who my friend, Brian,
00:00:38.240 a replacement of Pierre Polyev or Trump derangement syndrome with a sort of Carney derangement syndrome, Brian says.
00:00:47.140 I'd appreciate it if we didn't go into Carney derangement syndrome too early.
00:00:50.860 And he's responding to this video posted by a guy named Table Salt on X where he splices together two videos of Mark Carney that are supposedly showing him looking bad in some way.
00:01:04.020 And he's just not.
00:01:06.240 These videos don't make Carney look bad.
00:01:08.340 And it's silly to try and turn everything Carney does into some sort of gotcha.
00:01:12.660 It's not going to work.
00:01:14.060 So here is apparently what's bad.
00:01:16.860 It's going to start off with him using what has been said paternalistic hand gestures.
00:01:23.300 And then the next clip is going to be him apparently shooing away Melanie Jolie.
00:01:29.000 And this shows that he's hates women or something.
00:01:31.480 I don't even know what these videos are trying to get at.
00:01:33.500 Now, I'm not sure if you guys missed that last part, but this was apparently a news story.
00:01:59.500 Carney shooing away Melanie Jolie.
00:02:01.760 And I'm not even sure if that's even what's going on here.
00:02:04.200 Look.
00:02:12.500 I got to be honest, guys.
00:02:14.360 Nothing happened there.
00:02:16.180 That was nothing.
00:02:17.780 But if you want to lose an election to this guy, keep doing stuff like this.
00:02:23.180 Keep going after him for the way he moves his hands.
00:02:26.580 For apparently shooing away a woman or something like that.
00:02:29.420 Who cares?
00:02:30.220 If he did shoo away Melanie Jolie, I'd give him props.
00:02:33.860 I'd probably not want to be around her very long either.
00:02:36.600 But you'll literally have conservative MPs like Michelle Rempelgarner retweeting stuff like this.
00:02:43.820 She says,
00:02:44.180 Lol, I can't wait to see if he tries it with any of us on the other side of the aisle.
00:02:49.040 We don't respond to arrogant, grey, poupon-flavored gestulations with deference. 1.00
00:02:56.540 This is such a stupid thing for them to be going after Mark Carney for. 0.98
00:03:02.900 Go after him for only having the House sit for 73 days despite us being in a potent, like, a supposed crisis. 0.99
00:03:11.820 We're supposedly in a crisis right now that Mark Carney was going to fix and we're going to be sitting this year for the shortest amount of time since 1937.
00:03:19.800 Go after Carney for that.
00:03:22.020 Go after him for not tabling a budget until the fall.
00:03:24.860 Originally, he wasn't even going to table a budget this year until there was enough pressure on him that he's going to attempt to do it this fall.
00:03:30.120 Go after him for getting rid of the tariffs in the middle of the election while pretending that he still had significant retaliatory tariffs on the United States.
00:03:39.660 Go after him for that.
00:03:40.900 But there's so many ways of actually hitting Mark Carney.
00:03:45.340 I made a video yesterday on the fact that they're not going to be using the Reform Act inside the Liberal Caucus,
00:03:51.100 which means that if Mark Carney starts acting exactly like Justin Trudeau, which already seems pretty likely,
00:03:57.100 they can't get rid of him, just like they couldn't get rid of Justin Trudeau without Trudeau voluntarily deciding that he was going to leave.
00:04:03.440 Because without the Reform Act, the caucus has no way of just voting to not make Carney their leader,
00:04:08.440 to just say, you know, you've done enough, please go away, like the Conservatives did with Aaron O'Toole.
00:04:13.860 They're just going to be stuck with Carney if he decides that he's going to spend massive deficits,
00:04:19.040 that he is going to engage in, like, widespread corruption.
00:04:23.480 They can't get rid of him just because, again, the Liberal Party is run like a dictatorship.
00:04:29.780 It's all about the leader, and that's it.
00:04:31.560 The Conservative Party, when it's at its best, is all about characters.
00:04:35.900 The Conservative Party is always full of big personalities.
00:04:38.440 That's why I was disappointed to see Jamil Javani not be given a shadow critic role, a shadow minister role.
00:04:45.880 That guy's great.
00:04:47.140 Why wouldn't you want him on finance or justice or immigration as the attack dog?
00:04:52.860 He's so good, but I guess we don't want him in for, like, petty political reasons?
00:04:59.340 Make it make sense.
00:05:00.940 I'll probably make an entire video on this later, but I just wanted to bring up this.
00:05:05.360 This is something that people should be attacking Carney for, and there are people attacking him. 0.95
00:05:09.900 But every stupid thing you go after him for is going to be something that ends up distracting from something actually substantive to go after him for, 0.96
00:05:20.700 like him being effectively in favor of hate speech laws and censorship online. 0.99
00:05:25.000 Large American online platforms have become seas of racism, misogyny, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, and hate in all its forms.
00:05:34.880 And they're being used by criminals to harm our children.
00:05:42.080 My government will act.
00:05:43.440 And today we're announcing our plan to fight crime, to protect Canadians, and to build communities that are safe, secure, and strong.
00:05:52.400 This was during the election, but he's effectively reiterated that he is going to implement something that looks like C-63, the Online Harms Act,
00:06:03.980 which could actually have you be placed under household arrest having to wear ankle monitor because someone accuses you of potentially, in the future, committing a hate-based offense online.
00:06:13.780 It's insane.
00:06:14.600 But then we're going after him for hand gestures?
00:06:16.340 Don't do it. 1.00
00:06:18.560 Don't fall for stupid traps. 1.00
00:06:20.880 If you play stupid games, repeat after me, you'll win stupid prizes. 1.00
00:06:26.740 So, conservatives online, focus on policy failures of Mark Carney. 1.00
00:06:32.340 Focus on actual stupid things he says, actual things he does. 0.99
00:06:36.600 There are just too many people in the space who every time Mark Carney does something, 1.00
00:06:41.200 it needs to be, like, a big headline about how he, like, attacked a woman.
00:06:46.840 Or it needs to be a big headline about how he failed or he's corrupt.
00:06:50.640 It's like, not everything's corruption.
00:06:52.400 Not everything is him doing some scandalous TLC sort of thing.
00:06:57.260 That's just not how it works.
00:06:59.000 Mark Carney will fail in this government.
00:07:01.740 He's already done so many things that basically are just, like, foreshadowing.
00:07:06.680 That he is going to be terrible on the economy.
00:07:08.340 That he's going to be terrible on social policy.
00:07:10.880 That he's going to continue with the old Trudeau way of doing things.
00:07:15.220 He has an exact same looking cabinet.
00:07:17.340 That was a good attack from Pierre Polyev on him.
00:07:19.580 Keep going after them for basically being the exact same while pretending that they were going to be a breath of fresh air.
00:07:25.320 A stream of fresh air streaming down the mountain.
00:07:28.800 And they're not doing literally anything different.
00:07:31.380 They have flipping Sean Frazier in as the Attorney General after he failed in housing and immigration.
00:07:38.960 Go after them for that.
00:07:40.320 Wait for them to start screwing up on policy fronts and then hit them.
00:07:44.680 Don't go after them because he does this with his hands sometimes.
00:07:47.360 Who cares?
00:07:48.200 Even then, like, don't go after him for bringing the king to Canada.
00:07:52.220 It's a smart political move to bring the king. 0.99
00:07:54.280 I think this, the speech that I've listened a little bit to, is boring and dumb. 0.98
00:07:58.240 Is it really worth being outraged about? 0.98
00:08:01.200 Not really.
00:08:01.960 I might make a video about how it was kind of silly because it kind of cheapens the king to have him show up and read, like, a liberal partisan throne speech plan.
00:08:09.720 That's something that, like, a governor general should do.
00:08:12.040 But other than that, probably smart politics to bring the king.
00:08:14.920 He makes himself seem super patriotic by having King Charles show up and read or, you know, open parliament, even though it doesn't really do anything.
00:08:23.620 But I see conservatives online attacking him because, you know, that King Charles is a WEF guy.
00:08:29.480 Maybe.
00:08:30.660 But it's not going to work.
00:08:32.220 You're not going to, like, what are you going to convince a million people to start disliking Carney because King Charles is kind of, like, a nasty guy behind the scenes?
00:08:40.460 Not going to happen.
00:08:41.920 Anyways.
00:08:43.160 That should be it for this video.
00:08:44.460 May make something a little bit later.
00:08:46.220 But do things that work.
00:08:49.980 Lay out attacks online that work.
00:08:51.840 I see too many people hitting Carney for things.
00:08:55.120 At the same time, I know these people that weren't even campaigning in the last campaign.
00:08:58.300 They didn't hit a single door for the conservatives.
00:09:00.200 But they're here attacking Carney for, like, hand gestures.
00:09:03.940 It's maddening to me.
00:09:05.860 Anyways.
00:09:06.360 So that should be it for this video, guys.
00:09:08.880 Make sure to like the video.
