Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - CIVIL WAR Film Panned As ANTI TRUMP, Film Is Leftist Partisan w-Simona Mangiante | Timcast IRL

00:00:00.000 The Civil War movie has finally been released and we just got back from the movie theater.

00:00:12.000 I don't know, we got back like an hour ago.

00:00:13.000 And we watched it, and there are going to be spoilers in this show.

00:00:17.000 I won't spoil anything outright, but let me just say... I guess this might be considered technically a spoiler, it's not a plot point, but...

00:00:26.000 The film is very obviously anti-Trump, leftist, liberal perspective, and it's unsurprising.

00:00:33.000 We'll go into greater detail with that.

00:00:36.000 I actually enjoyed the film, but it's because I actually have done conflict reporting, and what I'm finding is while I enjoyed elements of the movie because it is a movie about conflict reporting, Yeah, everybody else hated it.

00:00:50.000 Rotten Tomatoes really liked it, and so when the corporate press is saying, you know what, this is a great movie, you can probably guess what that means.

00:00:58.000 I think there was a desperate attempt to try and de-liberalize the film at the last minute.

00:01:04.000 And we'll go over all of that.

00:01:06.000 We'll start with light on the spoilers, only using public stuff, and then move into more spoilers.

00:01:10.000 I know some people still want to see it, but there's a lot of people online saying that they're going to spoil everything instantly because it was so bad.

00:01:17.000 No one should go see it.

00:01:19.000 So we'll talk about the film and the stuff behind it.

00:01:22.000 And then there's, I mean, I gotta be honest, it's a relatively slow news day, but there is some news.

00:01:26.000 Donald Trump calls for defunding NPR over their wokeness.

00:01:28.000 Elon Musk has received an inquiry from Congress over his refusal to ban politicians in Brazil.

00:01:35.000 So things are getting crazy.

00:01:36.000 And then, of course, we didn't get into this the other day, but I really want to, especially considering the Civil War film.

00:01:41.000 Costco is selling $200 million worth of gold every month.

00:01:44.000 Now, why are people buying gold?

00:01:46.000 We'll talk about that, and before we do, my friends, head over to castbrew.com and buy Cast Brew Coffee.

00:01:52.000 It looks like, nope, we're still sold out of the whole bean Appalachian Nights, but people love it.

00:01:56.000 So definitely pick up your Cast Brew Coffee if you want to support our work with our physical coffeehouse locations.

00:02:02.000 I have bad news.

00:02:03.000 Bad news.

00:02:04.000 We recently lost Roberto Jr.

00:02:06.000 and then Mr. Bocas.

00:02:07.000 And the bad news is for all of those Rooster fans and Casper fans, Mr. Muttonchops has finally been claimed.

00:02:12.000 We knew that was going to happen because he kept escaping the Chicken City. 0.90

00:02:16.000 And today, I saw him in the morning.

00:02:19.000 We knew it was only a matter of time because the dude just did not want to be caged, but he lived free until the raccoon got him.

00:02:25.000 And now he is no longer living because a raccoon got him.

00:03:22.000 Hi Tim, thanks for inviting me and compliments for your accent.

00:03:25.000 One of the few that really pronounce it the right way.

00:03:29.000 Alright!

00:03:30.000 It probably wasn't perfect but I'll take it.

00:03:31.000 Who are you?

00:03:32.000 What do you do?

00:03:33.000 Well, I'm Italian.

00:03:34.000 I want to say that because the media portrayed me widely as a Russian spy.

00:03:38.000 So I'm an Italian citizen.

00:03:40.000 I came to the United States six years ago.

00:03:43.000 I married George Papadopoulos who was involved with the Trump campaign and that's why I moved to the United States but before that I was a legal advisor to the European Parliament and specialized in international law and child abduction.

00:03:56.000 Then I always cultivated my passion for arts and this switch to acting as well.

00:04:03.000 And now I'm an investigative journalist in political documentaries.

00:04:06.000 After experiencing on my own skin the fake news, right?

00:04:10.000 I became the fake news so I said let's merge this interest on a side from investigative journalism with cinema and let's make it a product that is enjoyable from a cinematic point of view.

00:04:25.000 Alright, thanks for hanging out, it should be fun.

00:04:27.000 We got Chris Carr hanging out.

00:04:28.000 Chris Carr, the executive editor at SCNR, that's ScannerNews.com.

00:04:32.000 What's going on Ian?

00:04:33.000 Hey man, good to see you, dude.

00:04:34.000 Likewise, yeah.

00:04:35.000 I'm Ian Crossland, I'm a musician and an actor, happy to be here.

00:04:37.000 I saw the movie also today, so I'm looking forward to talking about it a little bit as well.

00:04:40.000 We also have Serge over here.

00:04:42.000 Yes, it was, uh, it was an interesting movie.

00:04:44.000 I mean, I gave it 6.79, you gave it 4 point something.

00:04:47.000 I gave it a 4.

00:04:47.000 You gave it a 6.79?

00:04:48.000 Yeah.

00:04:48.000 It's like mid.

00:04:48.000 That was okay.

00:04:49.000 6.79?

00:04:50.000 Yeah.

00:04:51.000 It's like mid.

00:04:52.000 No, those are okay.

00:04:53.000 I, I, I, I, I, we'll get into it.

00:04:55.000 Also, Fallout, uh, the show just came out, and I am so miserably disappointed.

00:04:59.000 Talk about that, Julia.

00:05:00.000 Oh, man.

00:05:01.000 I'm just gonna say it real quick.

00:05:02.000 As a huge fan of the Fallout IP in the series, I knew it's been getting worse and worse.

00:05:08.000 The easiest way to explain my disdain for the show is that I'm like, I turn on Amazon and there it's Fallout, boom, the new show just dropped, and I tell my girlfriend like, LET'S WATCH IT!

00:05:17.000 This is gonna be awesome, and then I'm pausing every five seconds, but okay

00:05:21.000 I have to explain this because she was like what's that?

00:05:23.000 Why is this happening? What does that mean? What is this?

00:05:25.000 Why is that and I'm like wow it's not a show. It's just them being like remember fallout

00:05:30.000 Remember the vaults and my girlfriend's like I have no idea what the store. What what's happening in this show anyway?

00:05:36.000 We'll get into it But let's jump into the big news.

00:05:41.000 Civil War.

00:05:42.000 The film is out.

00:05:43.000 Yes, my friends, there's literally nothing else happening in the world except for potentially World War III as a threat of attack from Iran is imminent, says the White House.

00:05:52.000 But, you know, we're more interested in movies.

00:05:54.000 So we're going to talk about this instead.

00:05:57.000 Here's a story from the New York Times.

00:05:59.000 Civil War review.

00:06:00.000 We have met the enemy and it is us again.

00:06:04.000 Rotten Tomatoes gives the film 83% and, uh, you can only guess what that means.

00:06:10.000 Basically, everybody knows tomato meter is inverted. 0.97

00:06:13.000 If tomato meter is- if the tomato meter is good, it means the movie sucks.

00:06:17.000 And if the aud- usually it's like the audience score will be high and the tomato meter will be bad.

00:06:20.000 I have a feeling when the audience score drops for this film, it will be bad.

00:06:24.000 But for those unfamiliar, this movie is about a team of journalists that are traveling on a road trip to make it to DC during the Second American Civil War.

00:06:34.000 And there's going to be spoilers in this segment, but we'll start a little bit light and show you, uh, before we get into it, but rest assured within like five minutes, we're going full hardcore spoiler because of the political ramifications and the cultural significance of how a movie, and I'm going to outright say an anti-Trump film masquerading as not anti-Trump.

00:06:54.000 How does a movie like this get made?

00:06:56.000 What are the perspectives of people in industry and why Why is this their worldview?

00:07:01.000 I think that matters a whole lot, so... We're gonna spoil the film.

00:07:05.000 And, uh, if you wanna see it, you know, that's- that- you've been warned.

00:07:09.000 You may remember this!

00:07:10.000 This is a map that was published on X. I don't know if it's the official map, but I believe it is.

00:07:16.000 And this came out around December and we talked about it.

00:07:19.000 It's the A24 Civil War 2024 Divided America map.

00:07:23.000 You can see here the Northwest and parts of the Midwest are called the Western Forces.

00:07:28.000 You have this strip to the center of the country called the Loyal Estates.

00:07:31.000 You have the Deep South called the Florida Alliance.

00:07:34.000 And then you have the Republic of California and the Second Republic of Texas.

00:07:38.000 You can then see that Alaska and Hawaii are considered Loyalist.

00:07:41.000 However, A24 released an updated version of the map, where you can see the Western forces became California and Texas.

00:07:49.000 The New People's Army is the Pacific Northwest and parts of the Midwest.

00:07:53.000 The Loyalist states remain the same.

00:07:55.000 Florida Alliance remains the same.

00:07:56.000 But then you can see Alaska is Polar Bear Cold State.

00:08:00.000 And that is only somewhat slightly relevant to the film, but they did seem to change it.

00:08:07.000 So the first thing I want to say is, and I'm trying to go slow with the spoilers because I don't want to just outright spoil everything, but anti-Trump film.

00:08:15.000 Trump is the bad guy.

00:08:16.000 It's very obvious that Trump is the bad guy.

00:08:18.000 The movie is not about Donald Trump or a civil war.

00:08:22.000 It's about four journalists on a road trip.

00:08:24.000 So understand that.

00:08:26.000 It's about four journalists on a road trip.

00:08:29.000 And these two maps, the reason I showed that first is because it appears The film... I think they were seeing all of the commentary online, and they decided to change the film midway through in editing, to change the story out of fears what they were producing was overtly partisan.

00:08:48.000 Because it's... I would say it's partisan when you watch it, if you know anything about politics.

00:08:53.000 Heavy political influences, very obvious political influences, and certainly a political perspective.

00:08:59.000 They don't outright say it, but it is apparent.

00:09:03.000 I think, uh, in the trailers, you can hear them say, the Western forces are approaching D.C.

00:09:09.000 Well, back when this map came out, that meant Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, right?

00:09:16.000 And, uh, the Dakotas.

00:09:17.000 And then, of course, Minnesota is a mixed bag, and the Pacific Northwest, it's still largely right-leaning.

00:09:24.000 Now the film is The Western Forces are California and Texas, which makes very little sense.

00:09:28.000 So, uh, I'll pause there and let, you know, Ian and Serge chime in on this one a little bit too.

00:09:32.000 But, uh, as a journalist watching a movie about journalists in conflict, what I really appreciate is how they captured the malice and depravity of journalists.

00:09:41.000 It was, it was absolute.

00:09:43.000 I'm not being, I'm not being cute.

00:09:45.000 When the journalists are smiling and laughing at the bloodshed and the gunshots and the gore, and one of the main characters is like, I HAVE SUCH A HEART ON FOR THIS!

00:09:54.000 I'm like, this is what they do.

00:09:56.000 This is what I witness.

00:09:57.000 When I'm on the ground being like, this is horrifying.

00:10:00.000 People are being shot at.

00:10:01.000 I can't believe these things are happening.

00:10:02.000 Some people need to know about this.

00:10:04.000 I'm watching these other journalists be like, what a great networking opportunity to meet other journalists.

00:10:07.000 Man, were you there when this happened?

00:10:09.000 Did this happen? 0.61

00:10:09.000 And I'm like, these people are sick. 0.61

00:10:11.000 So I actually really enjoyed it.

00:10:13.000 But I'm curious your guys' thoughts if you want to chime in before we go heavy on the spoilers.

00:10:16.000 You want to lay into it, Serge?

00:10:20.000 I mean, what was something you liked about the film?

00:10:24.000 I really like the settings, the scenery.

00:10:26.000 So when I look at a film, I look at there's the theme of the film, there's the plot, there's the setting, and then there's like spectacle.

00:10:33.000 This thing was spectacular in the sense that it had beautiful settings, beautiful sceneries.

00:10:37.000 They're driving from New York to Washington, D.C.

00:10:40.000 They go through America. 0.90

00:10:41.000 You see all this beautiful, beautiful stuff.

00:10:42.000 And that's about it.

00:10:44.000 Um, I really liked some of the acting, a couple of the scenes I thought were really good.

00:10:46.000 And there were a couple of really power.

00:10:48.000 Well, there was one, the action scenes were intense, but I found it to be very, very thin on plot.

00:10:53.000 I didn't, it was nothing, nothing to be happening in the movie.

00:10:56.000 I was just waiting for something to happen.

00:10:58.000 I was like, when does this movie start?

00:11:00.000 Like 20 minutes in.

00:11:01.000 The worst part is when a Democrat governor is rappelling down from a building, upside down, and then kisses Kirsten Dunst.

00:11:11.000 Yeah, that was beautiful.

00:11:12.000 I'm kidding, I just stole that super chat from Blue Day.

00:11:15.000 Deseret Rebel said, does Kirsten Dunst get an upside down kiss from Newsom at some point? 1.00

00:11:20.000 No!

00:11:20.000 She doesn't!

00:11:24.000 Yeah, so what we're hearing from a lot of people online is that it was slow and boring.

00:11:29.000 And for me, it was actually cathartic.

00:11:31.000 Because the basic premise is this grizzled 40-something-year-old journalist who's really jaded meets this young girl, 23-year-old, who wants to be a journalist.

00:11:43.000 And then she ends up tagging along.

00:11:45.000 And she's like, ugh, why is this woman coming with her? 0.99

00:11:49.000 They come to- we're getting into spoiler territory.

00:11:51.000 They come to a gas station where looters have been strung up but are still alive.

00:11:56.000 And the 23-year-old doesn't take any pictures or do anything.

00:11:59.000 And then in the car starts breaking down and crying.

00:12:01.000 And Kirsten Dunst goes, oh god, she's crying.

00:12:04.000 And I was just like, yes!

00:12:07.000 Oh, I know that feeling so much, oh my god.

00:12:10.000 Like, do not- I have complained about it so often, when companies would send me out to urban conflict, and they send you with these people who have literally no idea what's going on, and then they're just fumbling, tripping, causing problems.

00:12:24.000 When I was in Venezuela, gunshots ring out, like people are running and screaming.

00:12:29.000 I run west from the crowd.

00:12:30.000 I yell, run, to my crew.

00:12:33.000 They don't follow me.

00:12:35.000 And then I take cover behind concrete.

00:12:37.000 And they run over.

00:12:38.000 What's happening?

00:12:39.000 And I was like, what?!

00:12:41.000 And they're like, what's going on?

00:12:42.000 I'm like, did you see the National Guard with rifles and the people running screaming?

00:12:47.000 And I was like, we're going back to the hotel.

00:12:48.000 We're done.

00:12:49.000 I'm not going out with you guys ever again.

00:12:50.000 And they're like, what, why?

00:12:51.000 And I'm like, I am not going to stand there as you guys stand in the line of fire and don't move.

00:12:57.000 And then I have a human responsibility to save your life.

00:13:01.000 If you do not have the experience to be in conflict, I am not going to go out with you.

00:13:05.000 I will not condone this.

00:13:06.000 You go do whatever you want.

00:13:07.000 I'll do my thing.

00:13:08.000 But fortunately, they accused me of being a spy, and I had to flee the country by 7 in the morning.

00:13:13.000 That was a plot hole for me.

00:13:14.000 Like, why would they take that girl in the car in the first place?

00:13:16.000 That's like a hard- They did explain it.

00:13:20.000 I'm about to spoil the entire movie, just so you know.

00:13:25.000 Let's start with the hard politics before we get into heavy plot points. 0.54

00:13:29.000 So, but the reason they bring this young girl, they reveal halfway through the film that the Florida-based, like, Latino guy was drunk and trying to have sex with her. 0.95

00:13:38.000 Yeah, basically. 0.89

00:13:39.000 They made the guy the weak, the beta, and they made the girl the alpha, and then... I disagree with that.

00:13:46.000 The guy... Kirsten Dunst was like the alpha of the movie? 0.79

00:13:48.000 No, no, no, no way.

00:13:49.000 No.

00:13:49.000 She breaks down and she's falling on the ground and he's trying to drag her.

00:13:53.000 And, when there's, in the distance, I, look, A lot of people are saying the movie was slow and boring and not worth seeing.

00:13:59.000 I still think it's worth seeing because I think the movie is going to give some people perspectives on war and conflict that they wouldn't normally have thought about.

00:14:07.000 But they're sitting like they're camping out of their van and you can see Tracer Rounds flying through the air and he's like, let's go.

00:14:16.000 And she's like, we're not going anywhere near that.

00:14:19.000 And then he was like, but come on, you feel it, right?

00:14:22.000 And she's like, When the sun comes up. 0.86

00:14:25.000 And he's like, I have such a f***ing hard-on for these guns! 0.99

00:14:29.000 So, yeah, he was insane and depraved. 1.00

00:14:32.000 Yeah, they made him kind of look like a brute barbarian idiot alcoholic. 1.00

00:14:36.000 And then she was the one keeping it all together and the leader. 1.00

00:14:38.000 But then she breaks down partway through and then the young girl becomes the alpha.

00:14:42.000 All right.

00:14:43.000 We've waited long enough.

00:14:44.000 Boogaloo Boys are directly in the film.

00:14:47.000 Boogaloo boys actually are depicted relatively well in my opinion.

00:14:52.000 Antifa is made reference to but we don't know whether or not Antifa are mass murderers or were massacred.

00:14:57.000 We don't know for sure.

00:14:57.000 Yes.

00:14:58.000 The president is Donald Trump and the heaviest spoiler of them all I just said I wasn't gonna do the heavy spoilers, so I'll save the big, heavy spoilers.

00:15:07.000 We'll start with the political stuff.

00:15:08.000 So I'll pause right there instead of doing the- Were the Boogaloos- Were the Boogaloo Boys really that well- They were named.

00:15:13.000 They weren't named.

00:15:14.000 They were named, but they also- Oh, those were the Boogaloo Boys. 0.70

00:15:16.000 Yeah, yeah, but what they did, still, they weren't the best light they could have been.

00:15:20.000 No, I thought they did a good job.

00:15:22.000 What makes you think they depicted the Boogaloo Boys poorly?

00:15:25.000 Well, then if I say anything, then I spoil.

00:15:27.000 Right!

00:15:27.000 Okay, well, they executed those soldiers after they had finished that battle.

00:15:30.000 They didn't need to do that, but I guess they just did it anyways.

00:15:33.000 Uh, fair point, fair point.

00:15:35.000 It wasn't Casim in an overtly good light.

00:15:37.000 They were still there.

00:15:38.000 They were still doing things.

00:15:39.000 They were making it look like it would be bad.

00:15:40.000 I don't think... I wouldn't look at them killing captives as, like, malicious evil.

00:15:48.000 Yeah, yeah, I understand.

00:15:48.000 It's war, and they're taking no prisoners.

00:15:51.000 Still, I agree, I agree.

00:15:53.000 That was fairly bad.

00:15:53.000 They didn't include that, you know what I mean?

00:15:55.000 But so, one of the first scenes you encounter... And this is funny, because I'm reading all the reviews, and they're like, it's an apolitical film.

00:16:01.000 And I was like, really?

00:16:03.000 And then as soon as they come across, so this is like, they're like, oh they're shooting, let's go check it out.

00:16:07.000 They're journalists, and the Boogaloo, they don't, they never say Boogaloo Boy.

00:16:13.000 Uh, there are guys in Hawaiian shirts with armor and gear.

00:16:16.000 Yeah.

00:16:17.000 Shooting at soldiers, military. 0.70

00:16:19.000 You can tell who they are. 0.54

00:16:20.000 Yeah!

00:16:21.000 And I was just like, no way.

00:16:24.000 I'm like, this is overtly political.

00:16:26.000 They're in Pennsylvania when they come to a location where military, it appears to be military, have pinned down Boogaloo Boys. 1.00

00:16:35.000 The Boogaloo Boys, I thought, would dwell in that Uh, it, I think it represents, like, their combat. 1.00

00:16:43.000 They're people who train with guns.

00:16:45.000 Yeah, totally.

00:16:45.000 And they allow journalists to film.

00:16:47.000 Yep.

00:16:47.000 They're, they're, they're moderately, like, anarcho-libertarian types.

00:16:51.000 And then, uh, the scene is, after the firefight, the, uh, Boogaloo Boys infiltrate the building with the press behind them, and then enter the room, and they hear a guy moaning and screaming as he's bleeding out, and then they capture and execute the remaining soldiers.

00:17:09.000 So, the one thing I will say, this movie was made by liberals who think they're neutral.

00:17:16.000 There's not a single instance where they encounter any leftists.

00:17:19.000 They encounter rednecks. 1.00

00:17:20.000 They encounter racists. 0.84

00:17:22.000 The president is Donald Trump.

00:17:24.000 The elite tactical force that moves in to take DC is... It's very diverse.

00:17:31.000 Yeah, it's very diverse. 0.76

00:17:32.000 And I don't want to be like a dick, but it's just like, Look, man, there's a lady Navy SEAL being deployed by a powerful military faction to take to the most... I don't believe... 0.99

00:17:47.000 Currently in the world, there is a high likelihood chance that they will have women deployed as special forces on the most high-priority missions. 0.70

00:17:57.000 And I'm not trying to be a dick, but you know what I mean? 0.73

00:17:59.000 She was small and thin. 0.98

00:18:00.000 She was a little thin girl.

00:18:02.000 She wasn't a big, strong, bulking woman.

00:18:04.000 And she executes a negotiator, so I was kind of like... For me, I think the cheapest part of the movie, after all was said and done, is that the president is in the White House.

00:18:15.000 In the middle of a civil war, he's just sitting at his desk.

00:18:18.000 Like, he's not in a bunker.

00:18:19.000 The administration's all just chillin' at the White House. 0.99

00:18:22.000 It's the dumbest writing I've seen in a long time. 0.99

00:18:26.000 Who wrote that? 0.99

00:18:27.000 Yeah, because, uh, Bethesda and- and- and, um, Mount Washington- what is it, Mount- no, no, no, Mount Weather?

00:18:33.000 Is it right?

00:18:33.000 Yeah, it's like, come on, like, even the publicly known emergency bases are still under loyalist control according to this map.

00:18:40.000 That was ridiculous.

00:18:42.000 Alright, but now I'll give the big spoiler, now that I've given you fair warning.

00:18:46.000 Uh, the movie starts with the Donald Trump character, and it's so obviously Donald Trump for a variety of reasons.

00:18:51.000 Nick Offerman is in the film for 15 seconds, no joke.

00:18:55.000 He's got probably 20 seconds of total face time, and an additional, like, 5 seconds of voice-over time.

00:19:02.000 Wild how how little he's in the movie.

00:19:04.000 I mean, maybe it's an exaggeration I think the movie starts with maybe like 20 or 30 seconds of him talking and then he gets maybe like 15 seconds at the very end But it starts with him saying we're on the verge of a great military victory Some say the greatest military victory in military history, and I'm like we get it.

00:19:22.000 It's Trump The journalists say things like, you're going to DC, are you crazy? 0.94

00:19:26.000 They treat us like the enemy there, you'll be shot on sight. 0.99

00:19:29.000 And I'm like, oh my god, we get it.

00:19:33.000 And then you got these critics being like, it's totally apolitical. 0.93

00:19:35.000 Of course, when Trump becomes president, he'll launch airstrikes against American citizens, disband the FBI, and then kill journalists.

00:19:42.000 Yeah, they say he disbanded the FBI.

00:19:44.000 It had three terms.

00:19:44.000 There's no drones.

00:19:46.000 In the movie, it's really, really poorly written.

00:19:48.000 Like they, it's like an idealistic movie from like, because technically the movie is supposed to take place in like 20 years from now.

00:19:54.000 If the main character was at some sort of Antifa, that's what she made her fame with an Antifa massacre.

00:20:01.000 So Kirsten Dunst's backstory is that when she was in college, she got an, a quote, epic photo of the Antifa massacre.

00:20:09.000 So they're not taking any video.

00:20:10.000 Nobody in the, in the movie takes video.

00:20:12.000 They all just snap still photographs and no, there's no drone warfare at all.

00:20:16.000 It's like some helicopters in a jet or two.

00:20:18.000 Or they can't charge anything, though, to be fair.

00:20:20.000 But they don't have solar powered chargers.

00:20:21.000 I've got like four.

00:20:22.000 No, she still uses her phone in the movie.

00:20:24.000 Yeah, she's got her digital camera.

00:20:26.000 And they say there's no service.

00:20:27.000 There's no reference.

00:20:28.000 There's only one reference to currency.

00:20:29.000 And it's only that U.S.

00:20:31.000 currency is worth little, but still still worth something.

00:20:35.000 There's no like the one thing I can say of this movie is that this guy was like,

00:20:40.000 what if there's a civil war?

00:20:41.000 I should talk to some journalists who cover war.

00:20:44.000 And they went and found some like 60 year old guys who covered war 40 years ago.

00:20:47.000 And one of the things we talked about this yesterday, I think they really missed the mark is they did not involve the international community with one iota.

00:20:53.000 It was all insulated within this.

00:20:55.000 Walled United States, as if there was no outside influence.

00:20:58.000 Like, dude, China would be the Western forces.

00:21:00.000 Those would have been Chinese forces.

00:21:01.000 I somewhat disagree.

00:21:02.000 You don't think so, man?

00:21:03.000 China? 0.73

00:21:04.000 They'd be all over the United States.

00:21:05.000 So here's where it gets interesting, right?

00:21:07.000 In the trailer, they say the Western forces are just outside of DC or whatever.

00:21:11.000 And originally, the Western forces was the Pacific Northwest.

00:21:14.000 In the new map they released, that's called the New People's Army.

00:21:17.000 In the film, they call those Portland Maoists.

00:21:19.000 Yeah, they mentioned Maoism.

00:21:21.000 They mentioned Maoists.

00:21:22.000 So, when they make reference to that faction, though, it appears that they're saying Communists take over the Northwest of the United States.

00:21:29.000 And they say Maoists, so it sounds like Chinese influence.

00:21:32.000 I don't think it completely excluded... I think in a more realistic scenario, you'd have, like, Chinese jets and, like, European tanks and things protecting the capital.

00:21:41.000 Why not drones?

00:21:42.000 At that point, 20 years in the future?

00:21:46.000 20 years in the future, going the way we are right now, that'd be way bigger.

00:21:48.000 Yeah, that's kind of a- 20 years in the future thing's kind of like a misstep on their part, I think.

00:21:52.000 Cause like, it seems like it takes place right now.

00:21:55.000 It's definitely taking place in the present.

00:21:56.000 The movie- but without present technology.

00:21:58.000 The movie takes place in at least 2025.

00:22:00.000 It's like when they make movies in the modern age.

00:22:02.000 I mean 2045, sorry, 2045.

00:22:02.000 Have you noticed when they developed cell phones, 2006, they were making all these movies, but none of the characters had cell phones?

00:22:07.000 Because they didn't understand, like how, they didn't have the creativity to write that new tech.

00:22:10.000 And they couldn't have the suspense of like, how do I get my message to my person?

00:22:15.000 Because I got to get to a pay phone.

00:22:17.000 And like in the Matrix.

00:22:18.000 And it took them like a decade to catch up to how to start writing cell phones.

00:22:20.000 And a lot of movies will be like, leave your cell phone before you enter, become a character in our movie.

00:22:24.000 Like they have to put their cell phone away before they enter the venue where the action takes place or stuff like that.

00:22:28.000 There was one early exception.

00:22:30.000 I think The Departed was 2007, and they explicitly made cell phones act like weapons in that movie.

00:22:35.000 Square says he said he wanted the... because he recognized the technology and how dangerous it could be, and every character in that movie is like, they're battling with cell phones.

00:22:43.000 That was a very early example, but for the most part, yeah, you're right.

00:22:45.000 I think they're doing that with drones here.

00:22:46.000 I'd like to see a movie that understands drone warfare a little bit better.

00:22:50.000 The horror of like an artificial intelligence taking over.

00:22:53.000 Like one of these factions could have been an artificial intelligence.

00:22:56.000 That would have been cool.

00:22:57.000 Yes, but if we're, if, you know, so this guy in 2020 starts writing a film called Civil War and the conversation around a potential civil war in this country started a long time ago.

00:23:07.000 I mean, first of all, there was a civil war in this country, but it was like 2017 and 2018 people started talking about because of Donald Trump, the potential for civil war.

00:23:14.000 Yeah, and I believe that part of it was to not only predict something that is likely to happen, I think, much less than 30 years from now, but also in the same effort to delegitimize Donald Trump.

00:23:26.000 I think it was like a sort of immunity system in place.

00:23:30.000 What if Donald Trump wins again?

00:23:33.000 The election and it was written in before right 2020.

00:23:37.000 So I think it's actual now as we're heading to 2024.

00:23:41.000 But already at the time, the risk of Donald Trump being confirmed as President of the United States was huge.

00:23:47.000 So we have this highly politicized, overtly politicized movie, Which is not like, of course they're making up that it's neutral, no it's not.

00:23:57.000 You just mentioned how they give the president as speaking exactly like Donald Trump.

00:24:03.000 Journalists ecstatic about giving the most sensational news with like, you know, like vultures basically on the set.

00:24:12.000 This is a sad reality.

00:24:13.000 And then all these minorities that are in the movie that just represent how they polarized America, playing this identity policy all over Biden presidency, like trying to put one against the other and building up the idea of Trump supporters like the white supremacists, the racists, the people leading America into this polarization that they created, by the way. 0.65

00:24:36.000 There is nothing of that existing.

00:24:38.000 I'm a minority myself.

00:24:39.000 I'm an immigrant.

00:24:40.000 I never felt emboldened by being put in a case.

00:24:43.000 Actually, there is no bigger recognition than being treated as an equal, like actually on the right side we do.

00:24:51.000 But here we go, like this extremely polarized world heading to the demon, the demonized Donald Trump.

00:24:57.000 I think already in 2016, since 2016, all over his first presidency and up to now.

00:25:02.000 So what's more political than that?

00:25:05.000 I remember when Trump got elected he said something like right after he got elected about I don't know if he said something racist or sexist and then other people it was like the floodgates were open and then all these people started saying racist and sexist stuff online and people were like white supremacy oh no and I don't know what it was like he did give kind of a green light like I'm gonna speak derogatorily that means you can too because before that people just didn't talk like that At least not on TV.

00:25:29.000 That's not true.

00:25:30.000 Not in public.

00:25:30.000 No.

00:25:31.000 Not in public.

00:25:31.000 You would get ostracized.

00:25:33.000 This is an internet thing.

00:25:35.000 It has nothing to do with Trump.

00:25:37.000 But then I think the media, a lot of people in the media blew it out of proportion and said like, Oh my God, he's going to cause a race war.

00:25:42.000 He's going to be a dictator.

00:25:44.000 And they lied.

00:25:44.000 Yeah.

00:25:45.000 And they made it seem like he was going to cause some, some sort of conflict.

00:25:47.000 And he was like, what?

00:25:49.000 I think this is the thing about this film is that it's liberals going like, wow, what if Trump really does get reelected? 0.97

00:25:56.000 He'll have a third term, he'll kill Americans, he'll kill journalists, and the country will fall apart. 0.92

00:26:01.000 And they call him a dictatorial president. 0.99

00:26:03.000 It's very obviously Trump.

00:26:04.000 And I guess the final spoiler is, and I think it's fairly obvious based on the, it's like, if you watch the trailer, this is not a big spoiler, but they do kill him. 1.00

00:26:14.000 Yeah, because he's sitting in the White House like an idiot. 1.00

00:26:16.000 He should have been in a bunker. 1.00

00:26:17.000 Is that incitement? 0.99

00:26:18.000 Is that incitement to kill the future president?

00:26:22.000 If you're a far leftist, if you're Antifa and you watch that film, you're probably cheering the whole time.

00:26:25.000 It's the first time.

00:26:25.000 And if you love America, you are probably sitting there shocked and in disgust.

00:26:28.000 I was nauseated.

00:26:29.000 It's the first time I've ever seen a movie where the US president was a bad guy and gets killed on camera.

00:26:35.000 I've never seen that.

00:26:36.000 If you guys have seen a movie- To celebration and cheering of the main characters who are happy it's happening.

00:26:40.000 It's like a predictive programming thing.

00:26:42.000 Like, are you saying it's okay?

00:26:43.000 Like, what are you insinuating here, guys, with this movie?

00:26:46.000 Well, you know that all the Disney villains back in the day were British, right? 0.99

00:26:51.000 Okay, I didn't know all of them.

00:26:52.000 Yeah, and so is the director of this movie, by the way.

00:26:54.000 British?

00:26:55.000 Yeah.

00:26:55.000 Really?

00:26:55.000 Yeah, of course he is.

00:26:56.000 So what does he really know about American discourse?

00:26:59.000 Oh, okay.

00:26:59.000 And well, it's funny because people have asked him about, like, isn't it crazy that you have Texas and California pairing up together?

00:27:06.000 And his response is just like, no, they're pairing up against a fascist precedent.

00:27:09.000 I mean, putting two states with their differences aside to defeat fascism?

00:27:13.000 When you look at the original map, it was obvious it was meant to be, like, conservatives from Idaho, Utah, and Montana, and Wyoming.

00:27:21.000 And then they changed it with the new map to Texas and California.

00:27:24.000 For some reason, and the best we could have come up with is because they wanted to make it seem nonpartisan that California and Texas could work together against the greater evil.

00:27:32.000 But I don't know if that's someone came in from the outside and they're like, you guys, you can't, don't make it the West versus the East.

00:27:37.000 Just make it, like, the bad guy versus everybody else.

00:27:40.000 Well, I want to stress that too, like, you get that movie, what's it, White House Down or whatever?

00:27:46.000 And it's like, all the movies that we have are, the President is the good guy, the President is under attack, the Secret Service have to save him.

00:27:52.000 In this movie, it's quite literally an external faction attacking the President and the Secret Service.

00:27:59.000 And you are, the characters you're supposed to be cheering for are happy it's happening.

00:28:03.000 So it's quite literally like the United States is the bad guy, the President is the bad guy, and the President must be killed and stopped, and when they, like, in the end, they, like, man, I guess we spoiled enough of it already, so I'll just tell you, but right before they kill the President, One of the main characters says, no, I need a quote.

00:28:24.000 And then Nick Offerman's like, don't let them kill me.

00:28:26.000 And he goes, that'll do. 0.99

00:28:28.000 And then they kill him. 0.60

00:28:29.000 And it's just like, so I felt like the bad guys won watching that film.

00:28:34.000 Yeah.

00:28:35.000 The movie to me felt like communists attacked the government and won.

00:28:40.000 The movie to me is most likely on a probability line of the liberal view is that Trump gets elected.

00:28:50.000 There's resistance and revolt and riot and stuff like that.

00:28:53.000 Trump gets elected to a third term.

00:28:56.000 At some point, to stop riots and rebellions or whatever, orders airstrikes.

00:29:02.000 In the beginning of the movie, a person carrying the American flag, suicide bombs, a bunch of people trying to get water from an aid truck.

00:29:12.000 It's very subtly like, if Trump wins, this is what he will do. 0.99

00:29:16.000 He will kill journalists, he will kill you, his supporters will do this. 1.00

00:29:20.000 The journalists only ever encounter deranged quote-unquote right-winger types, rednecks who are a-holes and beating up looters and killing them, or racists who are murdering minorities. 1.00

00:29:33.000 And then in the end they're like, the orders are to kill the president on sight. 0.99

00:29:37.000 That's in the movie they say that.

00:29:38.000 A few things that I think it did well is that they captured how some people are just still living their lives as if it's just not going on.

00:29:44.000 They're just going about their business in some parts of the country.

00:29:46.000 That was pretty cool.

00:29:46.000 And it also captured the chaos of the actual conflict when you don't know who's who.

00:29:50.000 You get shot at, you're just shooting back at whoever's shooting at you.

00:29:53.000 And I think it also What were you saying, Serge?

00:29:58.000 It really just highlighted the horror, the absolute devastating horror of a situation like that.

00:30:04.000 But I don't even think it took it far enough, because there was no foreign interference.

00:30:06.000 We would just have the UN would take over the country if we tried to... The only reason we haven't been invaded is because of our national unity.

00:30:14.000 So if we lose that, it's all over.

00:30:16.000 It's because there's a gun behind every blade of grass.

00:30:16.000 Well, I disagree.

00:30:18.000 I mean, it's a metaphor, but...

00:30:20.000 Well, what would actually happen is China would go to West Coast states and say, we'll provide any support you want.

00:30:25.000 Have fun.

00:30:26.000 Tanks and things like that.

00:30:27.000 Yeah.

00:30:28.000 And they would say, thank you, comrade.

00:30:29.000 You're welcome.

00:30:30.000 Anything to survive.

00:30:30.000 Right.

00:30:30.000 Yeah.

00:30:32.000 So inside they're saying that Trump is the dictator and everyone who supports him is a terrorist, is a redneck, is everything bad is happening in America right now. 0.66

00:30:42.000 They're building it up to me.

00:30:43.000 So I'm sort of Making feel people who hates Trump and Trump supporter entitled to react in the worst way.

00:30:52.000 And this is scary, because it's going on. 0.67

00:30:54.000 It's like a marketing massive machine to convince people that Trump is the monster. 0.99

00:31:00.000 And you know, whoever supports him is racist, a bad person, the problem in America. 0.98

00:31:07.000 And it's quite disturbing. 0.76

00:31:08.000 No, it's a kind of mix between It was a parody.

00:31:12.000 You remember this ideocracy? 1.00

00:31:13.000 They really believe people are so stupid to buy into all this fake propaganda every time. 1.00

00:31:19.000 And now civil war. 1.00

00:31:21.000 That is like their immunity system for what happens if Trump wins again.

00:31:25.000 We should rile up all the people we indoctrinated until now to cause some major issue.

00:31:31.000 And the fault will be Trump again.

00:31:33.000 In the movie, they make it clear the president ordered airstrikes on Americans.

00:31:37.000 But I'm thinking about it now, I'm like, I'm pretty sure if Biden did that, depending on who the Americans were, the left would still defend and cheer for it.

00:31:44.000 Yeah.

00:31:44.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:31:45.000 I agree with you.

00:31:46.000 Yeah.

00:31:47.000 If Biden ordered a drone strike on the criminal aliens invading the southern border, they'd call for his impeachment and removal right away.

00:31:47.000 100%.

00:31:54.000 If Joe Biden ordered a drone strike on, like, a Proud Boys rally or something and a riot broke out, they'd be like, yeah, but they were violent insurrectionists.

00:32:03.000 We've agreed a few a year ago, but after this, the way he's just malfunctioned, the Israeli conflict, he has no support anywhere.

00:32:09.000 If he did that, I think that the entire country, even his own cabinet, would take him out.

00:32:13.000 Like, get rid of him.

00:32:15.000 Make him step down or remove him from office if he was to do something like that.

00:32:19.000 Maybe, but let's jump to the real world.

00:32:20.000 So, outside of films, we have this from SCNR.

00:32:24.000 Trump calls for NPR defunding after senior editor releases scathing op-ed they are a liberal disinformation machine.

00:32:32.000 And so we were just now talking about a Hollywood film about a civil war, but this is another component of It's fairly insane to try and parse through the news when it is all a lie intended to manipulate you into falling in line behind authoritarians.

00:32:52.000 And so you had this, let me just read this.

00:32:54.000 Senior business editor Yuri Berliner wrote in his op-ed that an open-minded curious culture prevailed throughout the network early in his career.

00:33:03.000 Those said NPR's direction in recent years didn't accurately reflect on America.

00:33:07.000 Berliner noted the network overwhelmingly employed registered Democrats, noting not a single registered Republican was present at NPR's Washington headquarters.

00:33:13.000 The senior editor went on to claim NPR's top network executives had pushed for the outlet to transition their messaging toward a consistently progressive liberal framing.

00:33:22.000 There's a story, and we'll get into it in a second, about a guy named Dexter Reed.

00:33:25.000 You guys see this one?

00:33:26.000 No.

00:33:27.000 This is a guy who, uh, reportedly opened fire on police, striking a police officer, shooting 11 times, and the police responded, killing him.

00:33:35.000 I say reportedly because it's reported in the news.

00:33:37.000 There's video of the shots and the cops running and screaming, and then, you know, them yelling shots fired and stuff like that.

00:33:43.000 And...

00:33:44.000 The way the media frames it is they do not report that the guy opened fire on the police until the bottom of the story.

00:33:52.000 Wow.

00:33:52.000 So you google this and it's all these news outlets being like, black man shot at 96 times and they show a picture of him wearing his graduation robes.

00:34:01.000 And I'm like, why not just show a picture of him wearing a t-shirt?

00:34:05.000 Like, why this graduation photo?

00:34:07.000 It's all framing.

00:34:08.000 So their goal is to effectively create another George Floyd scenario.

00:34:12.000 The crazy thing is, This guy who died, you know, I was watching the news the other day, and there was like a shooting in Philadelphia happened, and I was like, and?

00:34:20.000 It's like, why is that news?

00:34:21.000 Now they're like, police stopped a guy who opened fire on them, and they shot him, and I'm like, how is that news?

00:34:25.000 I was night crawling in Chicago a few years ago, and there was like seven murders in an hour.

00:34:31.000 And cops were shooting at guys, and I'm just like, how is this news?

00:34:36.000 For some reason, these woke leftists in corporate press all got the memo.

00:34:41.000 And maybe that's the case.

00:34:43.000 So now you have this story with NPR where this guy's basically saying, yeah, Democrats took it over, turned it into a propaganda machine.

00:34:50.000 Trump now says, no more funding for NPR, a total scam.

00:34:55.000 Here's what I love.

00:34:56.000 Is NPR funded by the government?

00:34:57.000 Well, they say, no, it's not.

00:35:00.000 NPR doesn't get public funding.

00:35:01.000 No, what happens is Congress authorizes funding for some secondary organization who then transfers funding to NPR and that's how it operates.

00:35:09.000 So, in line with the movie Civil War, where the president thinks journalists are the enemy, you get the left likely very much going to push a similar narrative now with this.

00:35:20.000 But this is just a bigger component of what we already knew.

00:35:22.000 I mean, this country is... I don't see...

00:35:26.000 How based on things like this, this country ever comes back from oblivion.

00:35:32.000 Based on what?

00:35:34.000 That the media is intentionally lying to everybody.

00:35:36.000 There's no going back.

00:35:37.000 And the fact that Donald Trump says, make it stop, has them depicting him as a fascist who murders people in a film.

00:35:44.000 I don't think there's any going back.

00:35:45.000 People that want to go back, that ain't the right way anyway.

00:35:48.000 I just don't want to turn it into like...

00:35:51.000 I don't want it to become like so passively fascist that people just don't exercise their free speech.

00:35:57.000 That's what I'm concerned with.

00:35:59.000 I want to maintain people's willingness to speak out against the powers that be because that's how innovation occurs and that's why the United States is so great in the first place and why people came here and wanted to take it over is because we said, no, you're going to be allowed to say whatever you want.

00:36:11.000 You can't come here and stop people from doing that.

00:36:14.000 You know, at the same time, I agree with you, but we should be able also to call out lies from newspapers and journals that keep spreading narratives that are totally baseless.

00:36:26.000 And we have seen it with Donald Trump on many occasions.

00:36:30.000 Just spreading blatant lies.

00:36:32.000 I mean, I feel, of course, involved into that because I've seen my character completely assassinated in the news just to get indirectly to Donald Trump, right?

00:36:41.000 It was convenient to say at the time that one of his advisors married a Russian spy.

00:36:46.000 That was completely so It's crazy that, you know, having the possibility to call out this outlet and even win a defamation lawsuit is now so remotely impossible just because attacking the fake news is like attacking the media.

00:37:01.000 So, you know, it's another type of dictatorship on the other side.

00:37:05.000 You know, we should respect, agree at certain extent that coup lie, you know, people should be free to talk and even say lie.

00:37:13.000 Let's keep our freedom to object this lie, prove them wrong, and having, you know, them correct their lies, which we don't have right now.

00:37:21.000 Were you able to sue the... who was it that said you were a Russian spy?

00:37:25.000 Well, many outlets.

00:37:26.000 One was like Medium with this...

00:37:29.000 crazy guy that actually came in a label lawsuit recently with another person involved in the Russia hoax.

00:37:36.000 And he won, actually, and he was banned by ever publishing anything ever again.

00:37:41.000 I'm not making his name not to make him famous here, because it's really like a fringe wannabe journalist.

00:37:47.000 But, you know, many other outlets picked up from this, including, you know, the Observer and something, you know, just major outlets.

00:37:56.000 And the point is not even like corroborating what they say, it's just like putting the headline in the front to build up a narrative.

00:38:05.000 It was never about me, it was just about the Donald Trump campaign that was allegedly colluding with Russians.

00:38:10.000 So I understand the feeling of Donald Trump calling out those liars.

00:38:15.000 I understand you when you say we should limit our going after these people at a certain extent because we should protect the freedom of speech, right?

00:38:24.000 And I agree.

00:38:25.000 But I think this is so normalized to lie against a political opponent or political target that we should definitely be able to correct it.

00:38:34.000 You know, we should shift back to some sort of accountability when you lie recklessly.

00:38:40.000 And Donald Trump has been the target of all that.

00:38:43.000 And people like me decide, you know, just try to get to me to get to his advisor, George, my husband at the time, and now look at the here we go again, 2024, you know, the same mantra, Russia, Russia, Russia, a white supremacist and a bunch of other things that are thrown there just to make up a narrative.

00:39:01.000 There's like this saying, look for forgiveness rather than for, what is it?

00:39:07.000 Permission?

00:39:08.000 Permission, yeah.

00:39:09.000 Ask for forgiveness later rather than ask for permission first.

00:39:11.000 News organizations have been functioning like that in that they'll just print something that's wrong and then when they do, they'll be like, oh, it was wrong, sorry, we'll take it down.

00:39:11.000 Terrible.

00:39:19.000 That's not it.

00:39:21.000 News organizations will intentionally lie, make millions of dollars off the lie, then wait a week, issue a retraction, and make a few thousand off the retraction.

00:39:29.000 When they run an article with ads on it, views are views.

00:39:33.000 So they can run an article and just say a whole bunch of nonsense, and then if it's sensational and they make money off the ads, good, and then when someone's like, you better retract it, they go, okay, and they put up another article retracting it and make money off that too.

00:39:44.000 But I'm with you.

00:39:45.000 I mean, slander, libel, those are legitimate things. 1.00

00:39:47.000 This new media environment where a random nobody can slander you, and then a news organization can pick it up and be like, well, I mean, we saw it there, so it's not like we made it up.

00:39:58.000 And then who do you sue in that case?

00:40:00.000 Exactly.

00:40:01.000 Technically, the loudest mouth, I think, is usually the one that gets the lawsuit.

00:40:04.000 But then what, do they pin it on their sources and be like, well, we just got it from that small outlet?

00:40:10.000 Do you know how that works?

00:40:12.000 Well, that's how they do.

00:40:14.000 That's a vicious machine, you know.

00:40:16.000 So I read it there.

00:40:18.000 So I picked up this article.

00:40:19.000 I don't have to justify why actually they're proposing the same content.

00:40:25.000 You should go to the source and then prove.

00:40:26.000 And then when you are a public person in a certain way, you have much less protection on your side.

00:40:32.000 So legislation should change a little bit.

00:40:34.000 but on the micro picture, macro picture, I believe Donald Trump.

00:40:39.000 When I read these truths, I thought I relate to, because think about this man.

00:40:44.000 It has a judicial machine from the side, and then you have the media machine colluding

00:40:50.000 to create the same narrative.

00:40:52.000 So he has thousands of indictments.

00:40:54.000 Think about Jane Carroll, like based on baseless allegation.

00:40:57.000 again and media covering it in a certain way and here we go the narrative is

00:41:01.000 built upon like everybody's trying one thing to avoid Donald Trump to win the

00:41:05.000 election again and that's that's a fact or delegitimize him once he's in power

00:41:09.000 and everybody can see that even liberals you know have you ever seen so many

00:41:14.000 forces against one man and why? Not in American politics, not like this.

00:41:19.000 I mean and you can even try to attack the corporate press I mean, even if you're Trump, you know, I mean, he just sued George Stephanopoulos for lying about him on air.

00:41:28.000 Who knows where that that's gonna go?

00:41:30.000 You know, I mean, it's anybody's guess.

00:41:31.000 Once it gets into the topsy-turvy legal system, pretty much anything can happen, I think, even if you're Donald Trump and can afford the best lawyers possible.

00:41:38.000 I'm not too familiar with NPR.

00:41:40.000 It's called National Public Radio, but it's privately funded.

00:41:43.000 Yeah, well, part of what happened here, according to this guy's op-ed, is that things changed when a guy named John Lansing took over as CEO in 2019.

00:41:53.000 And then when the summer of George Floyd happened, the top-down edict was, we have to get at this systemic racism problem.

00:42:00.000 I mean, and then from there, it was just framed that way moving forward, and then everybody else had to fall in line.

00:42:06.000 And I imagine that's pretty much what happens in most of these corporate press newsrooms.

00:42:10.000 It comes from, you know, some deranged CEO that takes over and has, you know, kind of goofy ideological views on things, and they just mandate it top down.

00:42:19.000 Maybe it should, Trump's lawsuit should, he should just sue them and make them take national out of their Out of their title, because they're not- That's a brand name.

00:42:28.000 Yeah, like, if I call my company the Federal Armory- Express!

00:42:36.000 Yeah, Federal Express, they had to change it to FedEx, because Federal, it wasn't Federal.

00:42:39.000 And, like, if I call my thing, like, if I call my company, like, the legitimate American government, or, like, people be like, well, it's not.

00:42:47.000 You can't, like, call your private companies.

00:42:49.000 There's certain things, like, or if I'm, like, Yeah, that's a good point actually.

00:42:52.000 Yeah, that's a good point, actually.

00:42:54.000 Like, um, the United States Congress.

00:42:56.000 Like, if I want to make a company and call it the United States Congress, they'd say,

00:42:58.000 no, you can't name it. So calling it the national, it's not national, it's a private...

00:43:02.000 I'd love to get their stock.

00:43:04.000 That's a very good point.

00:43:05.000 Who owns the company? It's owned by National Public Radio, Inc.

00:43:08.000 And who owns that? And where the stock all comes from?

00:43:11.000 Because I read about it a couple years ago, and I don't have the data here, but I remember seeing that only a little bit of money comes from the government, and all the rest was coming from private organizations.

00:43:21.000 Where did you hear that they changed their name from Federal Express because they were forced to?

00:43:26.000 Oh, I just remember them changing it to FedEx.

00:43:28.000 Yeah, they weren't forced to do it.

00:43:29.000 You're allowed to say federal.

00:43:31.000 They just branded, they created a brand name.

00:43:32.000 They called it the Federal Reserve, and it wasn't even a federal organization.

00:43:37.000 So it is pretty deceptive to call your company federal if it's not federal and call it national public something if it's a private, you know, company.

00:43:47.000 That's kind of crazy.

00:43:48.000 I just got to get the stock.

00:43:50.000 I didn't know we were going to go too deep into this just now.

00:43:51.000 Let's see, privately supported.

00:43:54.000 Yeah, National Public Radio is a privately supported not-for-profit organization.

00:43:58.000 Yeah, privately supported by who?

00:44:01.000 900, let's see, I'm already including my 900.

00:44:03.000 Oh, what were you going to say?

00:44:04.000 Yeah, who gives them the money?

00:44:05.000 I'm going for it.

00:44:05.000 I'm looking.

00:44:06.000 Congress funds some, like, program, which then provides the funding to NPR.

00:44:11.000 So it says NPR is funded through private donations, member station dues, and grants from organizations such as the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the National Science Foundation.

00:44:20.000 Another question is, how much of their money comes from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting?

00:44:24.000 Yeah, that is a good one.

00:44:25.000 And then how much does Congress give to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting?

00:44:29.000 Dude, conservatives, man, they just sit back and they let Democrats funnel tax dollars into things like universities and the press so that they could be infiltrated by communists.

00:44:40.000 And now here we are.

00:44:43.000 My parents, I remember talking to them a couple years ago, and they're like, well, NPR is government news.

00:44:47.000 I was like, no, it's not.

00:44:50.000 That's what you're supposed, that's what they want you to think, I believe.

00:44:52.000 That's why they call it that.

00:44:54.000 Well, we'll come back to whatever that is.

00:44:55.000 Let's talk about this Nicolay Miu story.

00:44:57.000 Did you guys hear this one?

00:44:59.000 This is the huge implications for self-defense.

00:45:03.000 This guy, Nicolay Miu, was, I watched a video.

00:45:07.000 He's in a river, he's attacked by a bunch of teens, he defends himself, and now he's found guilty of, uh, they say first-degree homicide of boy 17 during a tubing trip after a gang of teens accused him of being a pedophile.

00:45:21.000 So there's a lot to this story, but the general, the gist is, there's a video showing him walking around in about, you know, six inches to a foot of water while they're tubing, stumbles over, falls over, drops a snorkel.

00:45:33.000 The kids all start surrounding him, screaming at him, teenagers yelling.

00:45:37.000 One dude yells for the culture several times.

00:45:40.000 Someone- some woman comes up and shoves him. 0.99

00:45:42.000 He then grabs a folding knife that he was using for tubing.

00:45:45.000 Someone then shoves him to the- to the floor- to the ground.

00:45:48.000 He hits the ground.

00:45:49.000 Then someone smacks him in the face.

00:45:51.000 Then as he's getting up, the boy who died jumps at him, and when he does, Mew pushes back with the knife and with his hand, and the knife goes into his gut.

00:46:02.000 And that was basically the killing blow.

00:46:04.000 He then has continued to be attacked and slashes a few others.

00:46:07.000 They found him guilty of this, and a lot of people are saying it's a travesty of justice when you watch the video, because this guy never said anything to these kids.

00:46:14.000 His mouth is shut, he's calm, he's not threatening anybody.

00:46:16.000 They surround him, screaming at him, and then attack him several times, and now he's been found guilty.

00:46:23.000 Um, so I think Carter, Carter Banks, was he talking about this?

00:46:27.000 He said that- About the Apple Valley guy?

00:46:28.000 Yeah.

00:46:29.000 Or Apple River, sorry.

00:46:30.000 Mentioned that he thought that the guy had been lying to the police.

00:46:33.000 Is that true?

00:46:33.000 Yeah.

00:46:34.000 So one of the things is that people were saying that he folded the knife and threw it on the riverbed or something.

00:46:39.000 So, okay.

00:46:40.000 Right.

00:46:40.000 So which was like intent to withhold evidence or something.

00:46:44.000 But the thing is, you can drown in a foot of water.

00:46:47.000 If he fell and hit his head, he could have died.

00:46:49.000 I don't care if he was on grass or otherwise. 0.98

00:46:51.000 You attack someone and smack him in the face and try to stop him from getting up, it's reasonable for someone to think, I'm surrounded by people, they're trying to kill me. 0.95

00:46:57.000 And if someone's got a knife on them, they might think, they're going to take my knife and kill me with it if I don't stop them. 0.96

00:47:02.000 Absolutely.

00:47:02.000 That's another huge component of self-defense.

00:47:04.000 Yes, exactly.

00:47:05.000 They always say that defense should be proportionate to the offense, but when I have a gang, a bunch of people coming at you, where is the line between proportion?

00:47:13.000 You know, like you have to use what you have to just save yourself.

00:47:19.000 The entire point is to save your life.

00:47:22.000 Are you using a proportionate force to do that or means on everything else?

00:47:27.000 But here, it's always the same point to me.

00:47:30.000 Where is law enforcement?

00:47:31.000 Right, there are pending accusations towards these guys.

00:47:34.000 Usually when you go through a legal proceeding to know if you're guilty or innocent, you should have law enforcement in place to take care of the situation.

00:47:42.000 But when people come and get you because they heard this accusation of pedophilia, then, you know, the balance is like we are Allowing people to get over.

00:47:53.000 But yeah, it appears they made that up.

00:47:56.000 I mean, I don't see what the guy apparently was looking for a phone that he dropped in the river.

00:48:01.000 And and so they they end up starting a fight with him.

00:48:03.000 They lost. 0.91

00:48:05.000 And so then also he's accused of being a pedo.

00:48:06.000 So they just made it up, too.

00:48:08.000 That's crazy.

00:48:09.000 Yeah, it seemed like it was just a deranged insult that they hurled at him.

00:48:12.000 And I mean, his attorney said that they punched him, they kicked him, they did it repeatedly, they pushed him.

00:48:16.000 It's on video.

00:48:16.000 Yeah.

00:48:17.000 I mean, like, now he's facing 60 years.

00:48:20.000 For first-degree reckless homicide and four other charges of four counts of attempted intentional first-degree homicide.

00:48:30.000 So that's because he swung the knife at four other people.

00:48:33.000 First-degree intentional homicide.

00:48:35.000 Intentional.

00:48:37.000 That's amazing. 0.97

00:48:38.000 They're basically saying he walked over there intending to kill people.

00:48:40.000 Did he lunge at the guy or the guy lunged at him?

00:48:41.000 The guy lunged at him.

00:48:43.000 Like, you watch the video.

00:48:44.000 The dude jumps at him and then he has his hand with the knife and it's like this and he pushes as the guy's jumping at him.

00:48:50.000 And that's how the guy got stabbed.

00:48:51.000 He didn't advance on the guy, the guy advanced on him.

00:48:54.000 That's crazy!

00:48:55.000 And that was like eight days ago?

00:48:56.000 That's a really quick trial.

00:48:57.000 That's really crazy.

00:48:58.000 No, it was two years ago.

00:48:59.000 It was just two years ago?

00:49:00.000 I just heard about it.

00:49:05.000 I'm very confused.

00:49:06.000 I've heard someone told me that it was a very emotional courtroom.

00:49:08.000 Was that Carter also?

00:49:09.000 He made a few comments about it.

00:49:10.000 I don't know.

00:49:11.000 I'm just... It's very obvious the direction of things.

00:49:14.000 And I wonder if the Sultanate's story about how policing operates is just... It's dominoes falling over.

00:49:21.000 No matter what you do, when you get a society like this, it will always tend towards the path of least resistance.

00:49:26.000 That is, with, like, George Floyd, the police are... Ahmed Arbery's a really good example.

00:49:32.000 The cops are like, we don't care if these guys are guilty or not guilty.

00:49:36.000 We just don't want to deal with it.

00:49:37.000 So lock them up for the rest of their lives.

00:49:40.000 And that was the point of the Constitution, to prevent things like this.

00:49:43.000 But this is what you get.

00:49:45.000 I mean, look at the story Doug Mackey was telling us.

00:49:49.000 Uh, he gets found guilty for posting a meme he found on the internet.

00:49:53.000 He just tweeted it.

00:49:54.000 He found a meme and he tweeted it out.

00:49:55.000 And then they're like, now you're going to jail for election fraud or whatever, injuring people.

00:49:59.000 And it's like, how did the jurors...

00:50:01.000 It's so brutal.

00:50:02.000 If I was there, I'd be like, no, you say he's not guilty and we can leave.

00:50:05.000 You want to go home, you say not guilty.

00:50:07.000 But this is what we get right now.

00:50:08.000 Finally what happens is, you know they went back and the people who are like, he's guilty

00:50:12.000 said just say he's guilty so we can leave and they went fine.

00:50:16.000 It's so brutal.

00:50:17.000 If I was there, I'd be like, no, you say he's not guilty and we can leave.

00:50:19.000 You want to go home, you say not guilty.

00:50:21.000 But this is what we get right now.

00:50:23.000 Jurors don't want to do jury duty.

00:50:25.000 Also, I'm just you're scared as a woman, mostly to knowing that the police is afraid to intervene

00:50:34.000 if somebody is attacking you.

00:50:36.000 Because there are so much limit to think about George Floyd and all other cases.

00:50:40.000 They're always getting to the police for overpower their force, always on the other side.

00:50:46.000 Criminals are let free.

00:50:47.000 I see in California, for example, this is this crazy law that you can steal up to the

00:50:51.000 value of $1,000, right?

00:50:53.000 So you have this gang of people going into the Gucci store and stealing bags.

00:50:59.000 And then just you see the security looking at them, not even bothering calling police

00:51:04.000 because there is nothing you can do.

00:51:05.000 And this is a completely crazy society.

00:51:08.000 Let's be realistic where this police is afraid to intervene because they're going to have issues themselves.

00:51:15.000 It's more likely they end up going to jail than the criminal.

00:51:18.000 You're calling the police against.

00:51:20.000 So how can you afford that in the long term?

00:51:22.000 You have cities, big cities, full of criminals and the police that is basically not interested in intervening anymore.

00:51:30.000 Why would you do that?

00:51:31.000 Why would I do for my low salary risk my life at the time and then knowing that probably the jury will tell me that I've been violent, I've been racist, I don't know.

00:51:42.000 If on the other side you happen to have a person of color or anything else, a minority group.

00:51:49.000 It's just crazy.

00:51:50.000 This is the other side of indoctrination.

00:51:54.000 This is the other issue you have when, you know, you build up this entire narrative that some categories must be protected, even if they're criminals, right?

00:52:03.000 You're scared to intervene.

00:52:04.000 You can't do anything about it.

00:52:06.000 What do they call it?

00:52:07.000 Anarcho-tyranny?

00:52:09.000 Worst of both, yeah.

00:52:09.000 Tyranny of the majority?

00:52:11.000 Yeah, because people are so afraid of, or have been, of the cops and police violence that it swung in the other direction.

00:52:19.000 They were so concerned with government overreach that there are now crowds of people storming and seizing and taking a bridge and holding, was it the Golden Gate in San Francisco?

00:52:27.000 Was that Golden Gate?

00:52:28.000 Yes, yeah.

00:52:30.000 They took control of a bridge and blocked, they conquered a bridge, or at least they held a bridge for a time.

00:52:36.000 Cops should have been there.

00:52:37.000 They should have been there with fire hoses as far as I'm concerned.

00:52:39.000 I don't know.

00:52:40.000 Dude, the video's wild.

00:52:42.000 I mean, they're all laughing.

00:52:44.000 They shove him to the ground, smack him in the face, try to push him down again, and they're all laughing as they're doing it.

00:52:50.000 And the argument's supposed to be that he was threatening them because he ran up to them, and it's like he didn't say anything to them.

00:52:56.000 Did he, is there, like, did he, before the video, is that what happened?

00:52:59.000 Before the video he harassed them and then they... Which chance a normal person would go after a gang and, you know, start a fight?

00:53:07.000 I mean, is it suicidal, you know?

00:53:10.000 I don't believe that.

00:53:12.000 But he did lie to the cops right after it happened.

00:53:14.000 If he felt like he was justified, I don't know why.

00:53:18.000 Just like Daniel Penny, you know?

00:53:18.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:53:20.000 Very good for him to surrender.

00:53:22.000 It's true.

00:53:23.000 Some people turn themselves in and then they're the ones that end up getting arrested.

00:53:26.000 Every time?

00:53:28.000 When the Antifa and the Proud Boys in New York.

00:53:30.000 That's exactly what's gonna happen.

00:53:32.000 Proud Boys stayed to talk to the cops.

00:53:33.000 I'm not surprised.

00:53:34.000 We're at a point where a guy's like, I defended myself, but now the cops are gonna lock me up forever.

00:53:40.000 Mhm.

00:53:41.000 Welcome to the Gulag Archipelago. 0.89

00:53:47.000 Really?

00:53:47.000 I don't think it was that bad.

00:53:49.000 That's the story that Solzhenitsyn wrote.

00:53:51.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:53:52.000 That when the guy was trying to kill the soldier, the soldier defended himself, so he went to jail.

00:53:56.000 You're, like, this is it.

00:53:57.000 You're not allowed to defend yourself.

00:53:59.000 These, like, you know, we got a super chat, what did Sonny G says?

00:54:03.000 You need to hear the whole story.

00:54:04.000 The man hit the girl in the face first, and the teen boys drunk intervened.

00:54:09.000 That man gutted them all.

00:54:12.000 Why were they surrounding him and screaming at him and yelling for the culture and for the culture?

00:54:17.000 So I can't speak for Wisconsin, but in Illinois, that's assault.

00:54:20.000 So, not in every state.

00:54:21.000 In New York, assault requires physical damage.

00:54:23.000 Meaning, in New York, if someone grabs you, there's no crime committed.

00:54:26.000 In Illinois, if someone lunges at you, they've committed assault.

00:54:30.000 If they touch you in any way, it's battery.

00:54:32.000 Let alone if they injure you.

00:54:33.000 So, very different.

00:54:35.000 So, in Illinois, I can't- again, this is Wisconsin.

00:54:38.000 If a bunch of people surround you, screaming and pointing their hands at you, screaming in your face, insulting you and yelling for the culture, yeah, you're allowed to defend yourself.

00:54:45.000 Granted, you're not allowed to defend yourself with any kind of weapon or anything in Illinois.

00:54:49.000 They'll lock you up for having a rubber switch.

00:54:53.000 Or actually, I think it's the only one you're allowed to have.

00:54:55.000 So, off of that comment that we got, Dante Carlson was the witness that was there.

00:55:01.000 He said, he initially told police that he saw Mew hit another woman, but then he changed his story before trial.

00:55:07.000 So that was an early, yeah, that's what he said initially.

00:55:10.000 It's on video, you see the woman shove him.

00:55:12.000 The guy, Nick Mew, is just standing there, and then she shoves him, and he fall- When he does, that's when he grabs the folding knife from his pocket, and flips it out.

00:55:19.000 So they're- Then, they shove him to the ground, he falls down, they smack him in the face, and the dude who died then jumps at him to knock him back down, he's just getting up, and you- Watch the video!

00:55:30.000 The Mew just has the knife in his hand like this, and he goes like that.

00:55:34.000 He didn't lunge at anybody, and then, as they're all screaming and surrounding him, he does start slashing or whatever.

00:55:40.000 So you're saying Mew told the police he punched the girl?

00:55:43.000 No, no, no, there was somebody else that was there.

00:55:45.000 They initially told the police, oh, I saw him hit a girl.

00:55:48.000 And then he changed his story before trial.

00:55:50.000 Oh, and they said he didn't see him hit a girl.

00:55:53.000 Yeah.

00:55:54.000 Really?

00:55:54.000 Yeah.

00:55:55.000 And then, like, there was another person that said that they were, you know, they were drinking beer, and then, like, they were just like, we couldn't really remember the timeline of events, you know, so it got, it got, you know, fuzzy.

00:56:06.000 And they're, you know, but despite the fact that their testimonies don't seem to be consistent, the conviction went the other way, so.

00:56:16.000 Unsettling.

00:56:16.000 I don't know how to talk about this very well.

00:56:18.000 I don't know what to say.

00:56:19.000 I'm like a video game guy.

00:56:20.000 I'm like an entertainer.

00:56:22.000 I mean, it's horrific, but I don't have all the details either.

00:56:26.000 Well, let's talk about the other story then.

00:56:29.000 We've got this story from People Video Show.

00:56:32.000 Chicago police firing 96 shots in less than one minute during deadly traffic stop.

00:56:38.000 Dexter Reed was killed during that stop.

00:56:39.000 Now how come, you know what, I did this on my earlier segment, but I'll just do this right now.

00:56:43.000 Let's just, I'll just fix the headline while we're here.

00:56:45.000 Let's see, article headline, and here's a text, and we'll, some editorial guidelines here for people.

00:56:49.000 Let's put, man shoots at cops, is killed after they return fire.

00:56:58.000 And there we go, people.

00:56:59.000 There we go.

00:57:00.000 The headline has now been fixed.

00:57:01.000 I did that in real time.

00:57:03.000 Was not hard, People Magazine.

00:57:05.000 Maybe you could, you know, that could be your title for this article, but unfortunately it's not.

00:57:12.000 Almost every major news outlet is writing the headline like this, the pictures they're showing of him.

00:57:18.000 I'll see if People Magazine has it.

00:57:19.000 They show him, like, in his graduation, and I'm like, look, we get it.

00:57:24.000 People have good photos, they have bad photos.

00:57:26.000 But this is a video where they're like, why was he even stopped?

00:57:30.000 They say he didn't have his seatbelt on.

00:57:32.000 He gets pulled over.

00:57:34.000 He appears to have something covering his face.

00:57:36.000 The cop says, don't roll your window up.

00:57:38.000 He's just rolling his window up.

00:57:39.000 And she's like, stop, stop.

00:57:40.000 She backs up, pulls out her weapon. 0.95

00:57:42.000 There's several officers surrounding the vehicle screaming, stop, roll the window down.

00:57:46.000 And then all of a sudden you hear bang, bang, bang.

00:57:48.000 And they all run screaming, shots fired, shots fired.

00:57:51.000 One of the cops got shot.

00:57:53.000 So then they open fire on the vehicle.

00:57:55.000 And then he comes out, dies.

00:57:58.000 They find a vehicle, they find a gun in the passenger seat.

00:58:00.000 So the question is like, Why did he roll up his window and not get out of the car?

00:58:05.000 He had a gun.

00:58:07.000 But he shot through his window?

00:58:09.000 Or did he- the window was still cracked and he fired out the window at someone and hit the cop?

00:58:12.000 Through the window.

00:58:12.000 It does look like in the video, like, glass may go flying or something.

00:58:16.000 So, he may have opened fire.

00:58:18.000 The media's been very careful in how they reported this.

00:58:20.000 The police have said he shot a cop.

00:58:22.000 Cop got shot.

00:58:23.000 Yeah, when I search his name on Brave Search, Dexter Reedus says, a 26-year-old black man was shot and killed by Chicago police officers during a traffic stop on March 21st, 2024.

00:58:32.000 Yeah, they always make it look like it's the police going around attacking Afro-Americans, right?

00:58:39.000 It's just like they build up, even in the media, with these headlines, this hatred toward the police, up to the movement Defund the Police.

00:58:47.000 To me, the police should be paid so much more.

00:58:49.000 When I see the crime scene in America, I would make a movement to increase the salaries of the police and stop arresting them in the media and let them do their job.

00:59:01.000 I mean, to me, it sounds crazy.

00:59:03.000 Look at WGN9 Chicago.

00:59:07.000 Copa.

00:59:08.000 This is Cop Oversight.

00:59:09.000 Police fired 96 times after being fired upon in fatal Humboldt Park shooting last month.

00:59:15.000 Hey, that's an acceptable headline.

00:59:17.000 How about that one?

00:59:18.000 I accept it.

00:59:18.000 After they were fired upon.

00:59:21.000 But look what happens when you Google this.

00:59:23.000 Look at all the stories.

00:59:25.000 Head of Chicago police oversight wants officers stripped of powers.

00:59:28.000 Dexter Reed body camera footage shows 96 shots fired.

00:59:31.000 Deadly Chicago traffic stop where police fired 96 shots raises questions about use of force.

00:59:36.000 Dexter Reed shot and killed by police after traffic stop.

00:59:39.000 None of these, even the New York Post, none of them say And look, look at, look at Washington Post does.

00:59:44.000 Like, come on, man.

00:59:46.000 I'm sad that somebody died here, okay?

00:59:47.000 I don't want that to be the case.

00:59:49.000 But when they complain that whenever a person is committed, you know, committed of a crime or arrested for a crime, they use these horrible photos.

00:59:56.000 Well, dude, this guy is accused of shooting at cops 11 times, striking one of them, and then they returned fire.

01:00:02.000 And this is the photo you choose to use?

01:00:04.000 Yeah, even Jeffrey Hammer has a beautiful college picture at his graduation, you know?

01:00:09.000 Yeah, they can post that one of them from now on.

01:00:12.000 So a lot of people are saying this is them trying to manufacture another George Floyd just in time for the election.

01:00:17.000 And did you see the video of his mother?

01:00:19.000 They killed my son.

01:00:21.000 He was just riding in his car and they killed him and then she faints.

01:00:25.000 Yep.

01:00:26.000 Yeah, so she's, you know, helping bolster that narrative quite nicely.

01:00:29.000 She said he was just riding his car and they killed him.

01:00:30.000 He said, I'm going for a ride, that's all he was doing, why'd they kill him?

01:00:33.000 It's like, because she shot at them.

01:00:34.000 She's like... Oh, because she's lying in public. 1.00

01:00:34.000 And then she faints. 1.00

01:00:38.000 She's like, I can't take it anymore.

01:00:39.000 I did wrong.

01:00:40.000 I think it's fair to say that there is a possibility He didn't fire on them.

01:00:45.000 The cops, a scared cop, fired first.

01:00:47.000 And that's why maybe news outlets, some news outlets are trying to be careful.

01:00:50.000 But when even the oversight agency said, no, they were fired on first.

01:00:53.000 It's like, okay, well then that's the premise we operate under.

01:00:55.000 They found a gun in his car.

01:00:57.000 Occam's razor suggests the cops did not accidentally shoot him.

01:01:01.000 Pull an acorn scenario where they think they're being shot at, kill a guy, and then have a gun to plant. 1.00

01:01:06.000 That's movie made up stupid BS. 1.00

01:01:08.000 Hey, I don't trust Chicago cops. 1.00

01:01:10.000 I got stories.

01:01:11.000 But Occam's Razor here, guys, the simple solution is, a dude who did not want to get out of his car, I wonder why, who was covering his face and rolling his window up, had a reason not to, apparently, and it was a gun, and then he used it on them.

01:01:23.000 There you go.

01:01:24.000 So it's still unknown if he opened fire first?

01:01:26.000 No, even police oversight said he did.

01:01:28.000 He did?

01:01:29.000 Yeah, the body camera footage shows the cops running the vehicle, you hear gunshots go off and the cops run, screaming, shots fired, shots fired.

01:01:35.000 I'm being very specific about what the video shows.

01:01:37.000 Oversight then said he fired on them first.

01:01:41.000 So I don't know what else you do.

01:01:42.000 Like, Occam's Razor, the least amount of assumptions.

01:01:45.000 Yeah, that's him shooting.

01:01:46.000 A cop got shot.

01:01:47.000 I don't think another cop just, like, shot a cop in the leg.

01:01:49.000 Yeah.

01:01:50.000 Well, this is the modern state of politics in this country, I suppose.

01:01:55.000 Yeah, no, they want emboldened criminals and demonize police and law and order. 0.92

01:02:00.000 That's all they're trying to fight, law and order.

01:02:04.000 Mm-hmm.

01:02:05.000 And just like with Trump, there's no pivot.

01:02:06.000 They're doing the same stuff with Trump this election cycle that they did in the first election cycle, just trying to make the same thing work again.

01:02:13.000 And perhaps this is another instance of that.

01:02:14.000 They're just like, OK, well, let's do George Floyd 2.0.

01:02:17.000 Can we make that work?

01:02:18.000 Yeah, because they want to.

01:02:19.000 Which is insane.

01:02:21.000 I don't think they want riots.

01:02:22.000 A lot of people are saying they want to make riots happen before an election.

01:02:24.000 No, they want to bolster Black Lives Matter and that narrative and blame Trump.

01:02:28.000 Yeah, they were waiting for Trump to get elected to incite another riot.

01:02:35.000 Yeah, after Trump's president, then they can claim he's a dictator and try and remove him or something.

01:02:39.000 Yeah.

01:02:41.000 Megamikey says a year ago Dexter Reed was charged on three counts of unlawful use of a firearm.

01:02:47.000 Also, they never used his mugshot for the cover photo.

01:02:50.000 That's why police pulled him over.

01:02:53.000 Interesting.

01:02:53.000 Wow.

01:02:54.000 Yeah, I also read that he had tinted windows or something.

01:02:56.000 Tinted windows are a quick way to get pulled out of your car in Chicago because, uh...

01:03:01.000 I believe beyond 35%, uh, less than 35%, 35% tint, then they're illegal.

01:03:07.000 So that means like, that's a, that's a decent amount of light blocking.

01:03:10.000 35%.

01:03:10.000 It means only 35% of light can actually get through the tint.

01:03:14.000 Those are fairly dark.

01:03:15.000 And then what ends up happening is a cop can't see what's going on.

01:03:17.000 You roll your window up and now they're like, okay, that's a threat.

01:03:19.000 You won't get out of your vehicle and this is what you get.

01:03:24.000 Man, I'm not sure what, I'm not, what are you thinking?

01:03:26.000 My creativity about the, I'm just so drained from the Civil War movie and these like bouts of street violence, like it doesn't bring me any joy.

01:03:32.000 It stresses me out.

01:03:33.000 I love to make great things and it's like hard to watch this sometimes.

01:03:37.000 It's important to acknowledge, but God, you know, healing, I want to heal the brain too.

01:03:42.000 Were you going to say something about it?

01:03:43.000 It sounds like you're just overwhelmed by both the fictional representations of crime and the real-life crime we're handling here right now.

01:03:49.000 Maybe that's what's going on.

01:03:51.000 I can totally relate to that.

01:03:52.000 Yeah.

01:03:53.000 I was listening to a lot of explosions earlier today in the movie theater for like two hours.

01:03:56.000 It was pretty intense.

01:03:57.000 Is that a prediction?

01:03:58.000 Did you feel like a sort of prediction, something that is likely to come to reality soon?

01:04:03.000 Not like that, no.

01:04:04.000 I think a peaceful fascist takeover is more likely, where people start putting themselves in pods and just plugging their veins into a nutrition dump, and they're like, uh... We're there.

01:04:16.000 This is literally what's happening right now.

01:04:20.000 You get a letter in the mail saying jury duty, and people crumple it up and throw it in the garbage, and they're like, I ain't doing that.

01:04:24.000 And then you end up with someone facing very serious charges, and the government is like, we want to put him in jail forever, and if you want to go home, you have to say yes.

01:04:33.000 And then the jurors are like, ugh, I don't care about this guy, I just want to go home.

01:04:36.000 Fine, whatever you want to do, bye.

01:04:38.000 That's where we're at.

01:04:39.000 So it is.

01:04:41.000 You get a dictatorship when regular people are not interested in jury duty.

01:04:46.000 You're right.

01:04:46.000 The era of 12 angry men isn't really what we're living in now.

01:04:50.000 I mean, there's not really going to be that one lone voice.

01:04:52.000 I mean, I guess there are people like that that actually would stand up for some sort of principles or they'd really dig into a case and say, no, I don't, I think everybody, I think all the people in this room are wrong, but I think the capacity for people to express that is pretty low, generally speaking.

01:05:06.000 And those jurors are losing work days the longer they stay there.

01:05:09.000 I don't know if they're not getting paid.

01:05:10.000 I don't know how jury dirty work, jury dirty, jury dirty. 0.94

01:05:13.000 They get like a modified payment.

01:05:16.000 We're never going to... The system's never going to be fixed.

01:05:19.000 Congress is never going to pass a bill.

01:05:20.000 There's no incentive for corrupt people to fix the system.

01:05:23.000 It needs to be that if you get jury duty, then you show how much money you make at your job and they cover it 100%.

01:05:31.000 And then they would just give it to poor people.

01:05:32.000 That would be...

01:05:33.000 Yeah, probably the case.

01:05:34.000 Oh yeah, you're right.

01:05:35.000 That's true.

01:05:36.000 And I was called for a jury duty during my immigration process, and I was not even eligible for being in the jury, and they were threatening me.

01:05:44.000 If you don't present yourself this day in the court in Los Angeles, we're going to start a criminal procedure for breaching your duty.

01:05:51.000 And then I called and said, listen, I have an exemption, because actually I can't.

01:05:56.000 I can't be there in my current status, so they let me go, but it was pretty odd, you know.

01:06:02.000 I got a jury duty call before my green card.

01:06:06.000 I guess it's how they vote, too, with ballots.

01:06:09.000 I don't know how many legal votes here.

01:06:11.000 I've never been illegal, but, you know, how things operate, it looks like they don't do their due diligence well enough.

01:06:18.000 The another thing is it's important to remember is innocent people are innocent until they're proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of any kind.

01:06:26.000 They're innocent and that's the way the legal system works and it's got to continue to stay like that.

01:06:30.000 I think culturally people think very differently in terms of that now.

01:06:33.000 It's not really just like innocent until proven guilty.

01:06:36.000 I think that the guilt just sort of gets showered on people, especially if they're a demonized person or a public demonized person.

01:06:42.000 And that makes it even more complicated for fair application of the law.

01:06:46.000 It's funny, the Founding Fathers are like, innocent until proven guilty, and the people are just like, we don't care.

01:06:54.000 But that's really kind of the basic, you know, raw human emotion is just to declare somebody guilty instead of going in the opposite direction, which is what the Founding Fathers envisioned.

01:07:03.000 Like, that's a very base human impulse to just, you know, come with people like Frankenstein with the fire torches.

01:07:10.000 You just want to take him down.

01:07:11.000 You don't kill the bad guy.

01:07:12.000 It really is a country of restraint.

01:07:13.000 The United States is a country, the Constitution is immense restraint.

01:07:16.000 Those guys understood you have to hold back your willingness and want to use power.

01:07:21.000 That is what this is all about.

01:07:23.000 Let your neighbors be great.

01:07:25.000 Media makes sentences more than courts today, right?

01:07:28.000 They brainwash people so much.

01:07:31.000 Think about Trump.

01:07:33.000 Everybody has been accused of so many things but in the perception is guilty of that many things and those because of the media.

01:07:41.000 Yeah, I mean, you look at the fraud cases and all this stuff.

01:07:45.000 The judge just bangs the gavel and says, it's true. 1.00

01:07:48.000 And then you get these people screaming on camera being like, it's true! 1.00

01:07:50.000 It's true!

01:07:50.000 This proves it!

01:07:51.000 And it's like, man.

01:07:53.000 It's how you get Nazis. 0.93

01:07:54.000 It's how you get Stalin. 0.56

01:07:55.000 It's how you get communists.

01:07:56.000 Regular people are like, what is that, authority?

01:07:59.000 It's true?

01:07:59.000 Okay, it's true then.

01:08:01.000 It's easier than thinking.

01:08:02.000 It is.

01:08:04.000 Trust the science.

01:08:05.000 Jimmy Dore's great bit where he's like, you know, on no other subject would someone say this, like, you're going to buy a car.

01:08:11.000 It's like, well, don't look into it.

01:08:12.000 It's like, what?

01:08:13.000 How am I supposed to know which car to buy?

01:08:15.000 Ask the salesman.

01:08:16.000 He's the expert.

01:08:17.000 That's how these people live.

01:08:18.000 The authority is everything.

01:08:20.000 Nothing else matters.

01:08:22.000 It's wild.

01:08:22.000 I wonder if it's just like a natural filtration process where credentialism, critical thinkers who are like, I don't know if this guy is telling me the truth regardless of his credentials, are filtered out and the left is literally just people who believe whatever they hear from a trusted authority.

01:08:38.000 I don't even know if it's necessarily the leftists.

01:08:40.000 I mean, I think about some of the people that I know and some of the people in my family, and they're not really leftists.

01:08:45.000 They don't have any kind of core political ideology that guides them.

01:08:49.000 They just turn on the corporate press and get poisoned by it.

01:08:52.000 It's the authority.

01:08:53.000 Whatever the authority says is fine.

01:08:54.000 And the level of comfort in the country for people like If I just go along with what I'm told, I'll get to do this again tomorrow.

01:09:00.000 I'll get to sit in my house and retire.

01:09:02.000 Yeah, get your dopamine drip from your phone.

01:09:03.000 You know, you have nothing that really overly, like, pokes you or prods you into changing anything because you're like, oh, well, this is nice.

01:09:09.000 I can sit with my phone.

01:09:10.000 It's like, oh, well, that's happening outside there.

01:09:12.000 You can sit in the movie, too.

01:09:13.000 Like, that war's happening over there.

01:09:14.000 It's not happening in my neighborhood.

01:09:16.000 It takes a lot to get to, like, an actual person actually bothering them to do anything.

01:09:21.000 Even people that are morally ethical can be just twisted by that behavior of accepting what you're being told from the outside.

01:09:30.000 I think a lot of them are just trapped in it, hopelessly so, which is really sad.

01:09:34.000 Yeah, killing critical thinking is the best way to control, you know?

01:09:38.000 So I think it's a technique mastered by every dictatorship on a side or another.

01:09:45.000 Look at Italy and the bad history of fascism sometimes ago.

01:09:49.000 That was exactly the trust in the authority as you trust God.

01:09:53.000 So you never question, you know, right?

01:09:55.000 So that's really like going to attack the critical thinking, which should, you know, talk and preserve and teach people how to think.

01:10:03.000 You're talking about Mussolini?

01:10:05.000 Oh yeah.

01:10:05.000 Is that what he did?

01:10:06.000 Yes, like basically equalizing authority to God.

01:10:10.000 You know, like you trust whatever the authority tells you.

01:10:13.000 It's like a God word.

01:10:15.000 So people accept everything you say, even if it's evil.

01:10:19.000 I think the liberals are doing that in America.

01:10:22.000 Everything that comes from their mouth is sacred in many ways, right?

01:10:25.000 Nobody questions it.

01:10:27.000 Nobody questions Joe Biden, come on.

01:10:28.000 Was it like that with Mussolini?

01:10:30.000 Do you know a lot about the history of Mussolini?

01:10:32.000 Was it like that before he came to power?

01:10:34.000 Were people just blind to authority?

01:10:36.000 No, he's the one who actually came to power with very good principles, but completely twisting them and pushing them to the extent of using a good facade of values to convince people to believe in Him and the authority as God.

01:10:56.000 Let's say, it's like liberals talk about inclusion and non-discrimination, but actually they are doing exactly the opposite.

01:11:04.000 They are discriminating everyone who thinks differently They are everything but liberal when it comes to inclusions because if you are a MAGA or a right-wing person, you're seen as hell and actually everything that happens to you, even if somebody kills me today, it's okay because, you know, she was a right-wing propagandist, you know.

01:11:23.000 I've seen that threats on my social media where they feel entitled to hate you based on your political beliefs and Mussolini was the same. 0.94

01:11:30.000 Basically good values, low family and country, but not just as a facade to give trust to people in the authority, like blind trust, and then make them accept alliances with Nazi without questioning it. 0.70

01:11:44.000 Did he turn on his own people?

01:11:48.000 Well, Italian Jews, yes. 0.98

01:11:51.000 Oh, he did?

01:11:51.000 Was that after he allied with the Nazis?

01:11:53.000 He just went along with Hitler? 0.76

01:11:53.000 Yes, yes. 0.76

01:11:54.000 Yes.

01:11:56.000 Like a lot of people I'd actually consider that he's kind of, he was Hitler's mentor in the early days.

01:12:01.000 Hitler looked at him and was like, ooh, that's what a good dictator is like.

01:12:05.000 And Mussolini had invaded, I think, Northeast Africa.

01:12:07.000 Yes, yes.

01:12:08.000 And then Hitler was like, I'm just going to invade because everybody's doing it now. 1.00

01:12:12.000 Italy was very safe.

01:12:13.000 It was providing a certain level of general wealth, you know, like people were living well.

01:12:20.000 So people, and then generating into them this trust and this like religious trust in the authority.

01:12:25.000 And this is dangerous.

01:12:27.000 Because they were doing well, it was able to generate a blind trust.

01:12:30.000 Yes.

01:12:31.000 Because they felt like they were getting their livelihood from the authority.

01:12:36.000 Yes.

01:12:36.000 And if you hear like old people, even right now, they would say, oh, the good time, like I'm talking about 95 years old people in Italy, the good time of Mussolini, because they are completely cut off, you know, the rest.

01:12:48.000 Just remember the quality of life of this time.

01:12:52.000 I see that technique in the liberals today in America.

01:12:55.000 They master it so well, like they actually are masters in projection and they use nice words to incite people to do bad things.

01:13:04.000 Right.

01:13:05.000 So everything that happened to a Trump supporter is good.

01:13:08.000 It's even the most vile action.

01:13:11.000 I mean, there's a level of intolerance that is unprecedented in any culture I've seen in the world. 0.86

01:13:15.000 are the one that promotes inclusion, tolerance, actually they scream like psychopaths if you 0.73

01:13:20.000 don't agree with them. I mean there's a level of intolerance that is unprecedented in any

01:13:24.000 culture I've seen in the world. I mean these people are unhinged.

01:13:27.000 Yeah, toxically compassionate sometimes with especially with letting people across the 0.99

01:13:32.000 border illegally en masse in these That's like, yes, inclusion, inclusion, but if you include poison in your veins, you're gonna die.

01:13:39.000 So you can't include everything around you.

01:13:41.000 If you include a mass murderer at your dinner table, you're gonna be in probably a lot of trouble if he decides to go haywire.

01:13:48.000 So you really gotta be careful about who you... I'm not saying to be xenophobic, because people are phenomenal, but in the wrong... You gotta be discerning in the way you include.

01:13:58.000 Yeah, that's key.

01:14:00.000 These people don't have discernment.

01:14:01.000 They don't have intellectual or spiritual discernment when it comes to these matters.

01:14:04.000 That's really interesting.

01:14:06.000 You can't just include poison in an injection, but that's the thing.

01:14:10.000 They don't have that capability or willingness to be discerning of what's good and what's bad.

01:14:15.000 Maybe because they don't have some core values to rely on when things are really tough and things are tough right now.

01:14:19.000 Because they were raised on South Park.

01:14:21.000 No offense, guys, Trey, but that's like a hard, nasty show guised as a cartoon.

01:14:27.000 Like, little kids that thought that was normal.

01:14:29.000 I watched, like, Looney Tunes.

01:14:31.000 And then South Park was like an adult show, but I think little kids were watching it, thinking it was okay to act like that or talk like that.

01:14:36.000 Because I knew kids in, like, grade school, high school, who watched South Park.

01:14:41.000 Yeah, and so little kids were like, I'mma, I'mma, I'mma, this is normal, this is who... And everyone keeps saying, like, it's a parental issue, and I'm like, well, parents have failed them.

01:14:49.000 Because when I was a kid, we couldn't watch Beavis and Budhead.

01:14:53.000 There were parental controls in the cable box, and you needed a four-digit code to unlock certain channels.

01:14:58.000 And in only certain episodes, my mom would be like, okay, we can watch this one, this one's like... And then today, I just love how it's like, as soon as it came to the internet, our society was just like, we no longer need to provide any

01:15:11.000 legal restrictions for minors on the for anything, period. So it's like, there's a story going

01:15:15.000 around where high school kids are AI generating porn of their classmates. So these are

01:15:19.000 children. And they're just like, what do we do about it? It's like, what do you do about kids going to

01:15:26.000 adult bookstores?

01:15:28.000 Like, you don't let them in!

01:15:30.000 But for some reason, the internet is full of these people who are like, NO YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY MY PORN!

01:15:36.000 It's like, yeah, we're gonna age-verify things the way they should have been a long time ago.

01:15:42.000 And ban young people from unsupervised use of the internet. 0.69

01:15:46.000 I just, I'm sick of this.

01:15:47.000 It's the parents' job. 0.92

01:15:48.000 It's like, okay, well, the left is indoctrinating your kids, then have a nice day.

01:15:51.000 You refuse, like, the right refuses to use any kind of authority. 0.50

01:15:55.000 Like, we're at the point where the left is having children strip on stage in, like, gay clubs, and the left, and the right is still like, hmm, the parents should be better parents.

01:16:03.000 It's like, well, okay, I guess.

01:16:05.000 Is the right so scared of using authority because they keep being accused of being authoritarians?

01:16:10.000 I don't know, man.

01:16:12.000 I think Trump was when he didn't call out the National Guard on the day two of the George Floyd riot.

01:16:12.000 Probably.

01:16:16.000 I'm pretty sure that's why he didn't call them out right away.

01:16:18.000 He didn't want to seem like a fascist totem.

01:16:20.000 But other people I think are maybe the really well-thought people that don't want to use the government to authoritarianism to stop this stuff is because they don't want it to get then turned against other aspects of society that aren't unrighteous, that aren't evil that are actually good that some crazy government is 0.97

01:16:37.000 like no no you can't say fuck on the internet no you can't say that and that kind of

01:16:42.000 thing and then like banning people to say that words they don't like and crap like that or 0.99

01:16:46.000 imagery they don't like you can't wear red shirts on tuesday no you're bad like you don't want to give

01:16:51.000 any government that kind of authority but then the other option is anarcho-tyranny do you want a

01:16:55.000 wide open internet of people showing four-year-olds pornography no no people don't want that

01:16:59.000 either but the right is unwilling to legislate this stuff they're they're like this this has

01:17:04.000 been consistently the theme with the right They will not wield power.

01:17:09.000 They win seats in Congress and then go, okay, now we'll do nothing.

01:17:13.000 And they all high-five as the Democrats encroach further and further.

01:17:15.000 I'm thinking of the metaphor of, like, in a military conflict where one side just refuses to finish the job because it feels like it's just going too far, and then they just get wiped out because they wouldn't finish the job.

01:17:24.000 Well, we have to get rid from the dictatorship of the politically correct on the right as well.

01:17:30.000 Like we are afraid to take any action or implement any law because we're afraid to be seen as authoritarian or because it's politically sensitive.

01:17:41.000 No, just implement the policies and the platform you voted for and go for it.

01:17:47.000 I want to see more of that in politics on the right side because I agree with Tim.

01:17:50.000 I mean, that things shouldn't be allowed.

01:17:53.000 What would be a good example of that?

01:17:55.000 How would you define that?

01:17:57.000 Just put a law that bans access to certain content to minors.

01:18:04.000 I know the internet is very difficult to regulate, but we have to do it at some point.

01:18:09.000 should be a major issue from legislators to make sure that kids and minors don't have 1.00

01:18:14.000 access to this content or punish whoever violate these norms or not giving access to, I don't

01:18:21.000 know, clubs like that to minors that are dancing on stage, you know, like gay club stages and

01:18:28.000 doing all these kind of things.

01:18:30.000 We are afraid to come across as authoritarian.

01:18:33.000 Well, let's get rid from the fear of this dictatorship that is the politically correct.

01:18:38.000 There is nothing such as politically correct.

01:18:40.000 There is your platform you have been voted upon and just make your job to make sure the society is in order.

01:18:48.000 Because, you know, the responsibility is not only the family.

01:18:50.000 I'm sorry, it's not.

01:18:51.000 This is where that Civil War movie needed.

01:18:54.000 It needed, like, a scene where the journalists come across a drag show for kids outside of, like, some town.

01:19:01.000 And then, like, the movie starts with a bunch of people begging for water from an aid truck, and then a person with an American flag runs in and IEDs.

01:19:11.000 And it should have been a drag show for kids that someone runs in. 0.99

01:19:15.000 The Civil War narrative film needs to actually address modern politics to make its point.

01:19:22.000 Otherwise, it's just...

01:19:24.000 Hey look, war.

01:19:25.000 And I guess the idea is like in war films, people don't internalize it.

01:19:30.000 They say, wow, that's happening over there.

01:19:33.000 And they don't realize that if it were to happen here, what it would look like.

01:19:36.000 So I can respect that film in that respect, but there needs to be a film where it just like outright shows...

01:19:41.000 What the left does, and then how the right responds, and then take it to, like, take it up a notch.

01:19:48.000 You know, the funny thing is, like, we're talking about this film, and, you know, this is Fear of Civil War, but the element that's missing from the narrative is the weird behaviors of the factions.

01:19:58.000 Mostly the left.

01:19:59.000 And like, what they're trying to defend.

01:20:01.000 Like, the founding fathers are like, life, liberty, and family!

01:20:05.000 And the left is like, we want kids to read naughty books.

01:20:09.000 Like, that's their motive.

01:20:12.000 Yeah, the desire for full access to everything for kids is like, a little over the top.

01:20:17.000 I'm sorry, man.

01:20:18.000 You're sorry?

01:20:20.000 I'm sorry to admit that I used to be like that, that I was very much like, All of it, all the time.

01:20:26.000 Open it all up.

01:20:27.000 We've just now unlocked the internet.

01:20:29.000 This is the new paradigm.

01:20:31.000 Brace yourself.

01:20:32.000 Plug everybody in.

01:20:33.000 I was just like, the writing's on the wall.

01:20:36.000 Here we go.

01:20:36.000 Why deny it?

01:20:37.000 And I feel like I've actually kind of pushed us towards that in a way.

01:20:40.000 I used to make videos about it on YouTube and they were pretty well received by people.

01:20:44.000 They'd be confused, but they'd be like, really?

01:20:45.000 Oh.

01:20:47.000 But the reality is you got to protect those kids' brains.

01:20:49.000 Yeah.

01:20:49.000 The principle is right until you can see now what they did of it, you know?

01:20:53.000 It was not the principle itself I can relate to, but when you see the generation of the content, it's just crazy.

01:21:00.000 You need to do something.

01:21:01.000 I mean, I'm such a boomer in terms of technology.

01:21:04.000 I find it hard to believe that you actually could implement legislation that keeps minors and children from accessing, you know, pornography and stuff like that.

01:21:11.000 Could you even do it?

01:21:12.000 Like, kids are gonna get fake IDs and sneak into adult bookstores.

01:21:15.000 Exactly.

01:21:15.000 Oh, okay.

01:21:16.000 All right.

01:21:17.000 We still say they can't do it.

01:21:18.000 But ultimately, if it was implemented, it would prevent a lot of kids from doing it.

01:21:22.000 Right.

01:21:22.000 So we make it so that these... and a lot of states are doing it.

01:21:26.000 Texas.

01:21:26.000 Right.

01:21:27.000 You want to log into a website, you got to send in your ID.

01:21:29.000 And then people are like, people are like, Tim, say what Kamala Harris said!

01:21:32.000 And it's like, I don't care.

01:21:33.000 I literally don't care.

01:21:34.000 Cry about it.

01:21:35.000 Cry all day.

01:21:36.000 Like, my position is my position.

01:21:37.000 I don't care if you're angry.

01:21:38.000 It was Nikki Haley.

01:21:39.000 Nikki Haley said that.

01:21:41.000 Yeah, Nikki Haley is like, we should have IDs for the internet. 0.69

01:21:43.000 But what did she say?

01:21:44.000 Like, everyone should be verified or something?

01:21:45.000 In order to use the internet, you should have to verify your identity.

01:21:48.000 Yeah, so I'll give you the clarified version of what, I don't know what she's talking about.

01:21:52.000 I'm saying, if you want to go to the grocery store, you don't need anything.

01:21:56.000 You can walk right in, walk right out, that's fine.

01:21:59.000 No one needs to card you to leave your home.

01:22:01.000 If you want to go to an adult bookstore or casino, you gotta show an ID.

01:22:04.000 Technically, if you're a minor, and you're alone, can't you just get picked up by the cops and taken home?

01:22:09.000 Like, you're not allowed to be walking around outside as a minor.

01:22:09.000 Yes.

01:22:11.000 Well, it depends on the time of day.

01:22:13.000 Like, in Chicago, they have curfew, and it's wild.

01:22:17.000 I've never been picked up for curfew.

01:22:18.000 I'm pretty sure my brother has, though.

01:22:20.000 The only ever time I got stopped for curfew, I was with my brother, and so they just said, hey, you shouldn't be out, and he's like, he's with me, I'm old enough, and they're like, whatever, and then they just drove off.

01:22:29.000 But they will actually, you'll like, I think that's insane.

01:22:33.000 You're 16, you're walking down the street in Chicago at 10.30 and the cop will pull over, but get in.

01:22:39.000 Where you live.

01:22:40.000 Like that's the most conservative, like such a conservative law to look, put up against like four-year-olds seeing porn on their iPhone.

01:22:48.000 Here's the funny stories.

01:22:48.000 Like, I've heard a bunch of funny stories about, like, my friends would get picked up for curfew, and the cops would be like, your parents have to sign for you, and they would go, okay, and then they would give them the address on the other side of the alley from their home.

01:22:59.000 Because I don't know if, like, how many cities are like this.

01:23:02.000 But in Chicago, it's like, every house has a backyard and a garage, and then you go through the alley, and there's another garage, and so they're, like, back to back.

01:23:11.000 And so he's like, this is my house.

01:23:12.000 I'll go to my parents.

01:23:13.000 And then he walks out, walks into the backyard of a stranger's house, turns right, turns left, jumps the fence, jumps the fence again into his house, goes in his house and just closes the door.

01:23:20.000 Wow.

01:23:21.000 And then the cops just are like, no idea.

01:23:23.000 He's just gone.

01:23:25.000 And they wait there for a certain amount of time and they're like, whatever, and they leave.

01:23:27.000 But it is pretty, it's always been pretty wild to me that I'm like, You could be 16 years old, and if you're out at 11 o'clock?

01:23:34.000 Like, that's crazy, because when I was like 16, I'd go to the comic shop.

01:23:37.000 We'd play, like, arcade.

01:23:38.000 We'd play Marvel vs. Capcom.

01:23:39.000 And then at, like, 10.30, I'd rollerblade home or something.

01:23:42.000 Well, no, when I was 16, I was skateboarding.

01:23:44.000 When I was 13, I was rollerblading.

01:23:45.000 But then I'd be, like, skateboarding home, and I'm like, what, a cop would just pick me up?

01:23:48.000 Never happened.

01:23:49.000 They don't really mess with people on wheels.

01:23:50.000 I never got messed with.

01:23:51.000 I was always on a bike.

01:23:53.000 That's a good point.

01:23:54.000 No, I knew a kid who got a speeding ticket on a skateboard.

01:23:57.000 Oh my gosh, how fast was he going?

01:23:58.000 Like 20-something.

01:23:59.000 Wow.

01:24:00.000 Yeah, he was bombing a hill.

01:24:02.000 And so the cops like went after him and he was like, I think it was a longboard or something.

01:24:06.000 But he was bombing this big hill and the speed limit was like 20.

01:24:08.000 It might have been a speed limit 15, I think.

01:24:11.000 And then he was going like, but I think he was going like 20 miles an hour.

01:24:14.000 And then the cops, and then he like slid in the grass and then they wrote him a ticket.

01:24:14.000 Wow.

01:24:18.000 And he's like, what?

01:24:19.000 They're like, you were speeding.

01:24:20.000 And he's like, what?

01:24:21.000 And he's like, law doesn't say anything about what kind of vehicle you have to be on.

01:24:23.000 Oh, that's good to know.

01:24:25.000 I just got my license today, by the way, talking about speeding.

01:24:28.000 I passed the driving test on the first try.

01:24:30.000 I got my first drive test 30 years ago, but I'd let it lapse and expire, so I hadn't taken it since.

01:24:35.000 I was kind of excited to take the test again and find out.

01:24:37.000 Nice! 0.94

01:24:37.000 I still got it, baby! 0.94

01:24:39.000 That's a milestone, baby!

01:24:40.000 Congratulations!

01:24:40.000 When he was taking the test, they start you off, you have to score at least a 95 to pass, and they start you off minus 10 points if you're a white male.

01:24:48.000 What?

01:24:49.000 So I had to go behind the counter, get down on my knees, pray.

01:24:53.000 I was like, maybe it's possible.

01:24:56.000 You know, this goes crazy.

01:24:58.000 Everything's possible.

01:24:59.000 It's another weird thing I used to say.

01:25:01.000 Ian had to get his license because we're moving.

01:25:03.000 This room is empty and you can't even tell.

01:25:05.000 Yeah, I'm gonna be commuting to work after the studio's lit.

01:25:06.000 Oh wow, I didn't even notice.

01:25:07.000 The room's empty.

01:25:09.000 You're right!

01:25:10.000 Yeah, no one watching the show can realize that we're in an empty room right now.

01:25:13.000 The move is real.

01:25:14.000 It's happening.

01:25:14.000 But it is funny because no one can even see the table that we're sitting at.

01:25:17.000 It's a big, nice table, by the way.

01:25:19.000 Someone once told me that they thought the show was all of us at our own little desks in separate parts of the room, and I was like, that's weird.

01:25:26.000 When I first started, I was, like, alone in a corner desk.

01:25:30.000 Remember when we had Malice and Jones on?

01:25:30.000 No, no, no, that wasn't the first one.

01:25:32.000 Early on.

01:25:33.000 First, you were actually just sitting off to the side.

01:25:36.000 Oh yeah, that was at the old Jersey house.

01:25:37.000 We had an extra set in the corner where you could come and go if we had extra guests.

01:25:44.000 You could hear me on the mic, but he'd be way over there, so it'd be real weird talking to him when he was like 30 feet away.

01:25:48.000 But that was when we had extra people.

01:25:50.000 And you came up and you'd sit down and we were like...

01:25:53.000 Like, yeah, we need a bigger desk.

01:25:54.000 We should talk to Thomas Massey about doing legislation to ban this stuff, because he's the most righteous congressman as far as I can tell, in my opinion.

01:26:02.000 Oh yeah, agreed.

01:26:03.000 I don't know, I kind of feel like he'd just be like, I'm opposed to any kind of restrictions and regulations.

01:26:08.000 You think he's going to lean super libertarian on that?

01:26:10.000 Parents should do it.

01:26:11.000 Yeah.

01:26:12.000 And it's just like, I guess it's true that parents should do it.

01:26:17.000 I don't know, man.

01:26:17.000 But I think what's going to happen then is that the far left lies to parents, the parents then go along with it, and the kids' brains fall out of their heads.

01:26:24.000 That's exactly what's happening.

01:26:25.000 Schools could ban phones.

01:26:27.000 You could make public schools ban phones.

01:26:30.000 Then we'd lose a lot of fight footage that's floating around out there.

01:26:33.000 But isn't it the right-left that is claiming authority to take over parenthood if they consider that the parents are not Understanding of the gender journey.

01:26:45.000 It's not even that, the left has already said it's our children.

01:26:48.000 Exactly.

01:26:48.000 It's like MSNBC or something that said it's our children.

01:26:51.000 So, you know, you have on the side they claim authority, they take over, and on the other side they'll let it to the parents, you know?

01:26:58.000 We have to find a middle ground because they're taking over in every way, anyway. 0.76

01:27:04.000 Yep, that's true.

01:27:08.000 It's crazy.

01:27:09.000 Yeah, it is.

01:27:10.000 Um, I don't, I mean, it's, it's not like you're bringing a gun to school, like bringing a phone to school is not like bringing a gun to school, but the information can warp your mind in such a way that it can never be undone.

01:27:18.000 Like, I still remember that movie.

01:27:19.000 Chances are, I was talking about last night, just some weird movie I saw where the guy dates is, is reborn.

01:27:23.000 Oh yeah.

01:27:24.000 He dates his daughter.

01:27:25.000 Yeah.

01:27:26.000 Robert Downey Jr.

01:27:27.000 Sybil Shepard.

01:27:28.000 And, uh, it twisted my mind.

01:27:29.000 Not necessarily in a horrible way.

01:27:31.000 What was it called?

01:27:32.000 Chances are. 0.93

01:27:33.000 And this is where like the guy dies and comes back and then tries to bang his daughter.

01:27:36.000 Yeah, he's so in love that he runs through the line waiting to get vaccinated so he forgets his past life, and then he just bypasses that and gets reborn, and then he meets a girl he's dating, and then he starts to remember that it's his daughter, I guess.

01:27:48.000 It's been so long since I saw it.

01:27:50.000 What's the name of the... Chances are...

01:27:52.000 But it was like a sexual fantasy of mine as a kid.

01:27:54.000 It was weird.

01:27:55.000 Twisted me in a weird way. 0.95

01:27:56.000 Bang your daughter? 1.00

01:27:58.000 I don't remember that aspect.

01:27:59.000 I just remember Shepard being real hot and I was like, she's really attractive. 0.98

01:28:02.000 And Robert Downey Jr.

01:28:03.000 is really making her really attractive in this movie somehow.

01:28:06.000 And I was like 10 or 12 and it stuck with me for years after that.

01:28:11.000 Yeah, I didn't see that movie.

01:28:12.000 No one knew that young.

01:28:13.000 That probably would be a trip.

01:28:14.000 Yeah, it was weird.

01:28:15.000 A mind warp.

01:28:17.000 That was just a simple movie.

01:28:17.000 So these phones in schools, if a kid's like, look, and they show you the most graphic, you don't even ask for it, and a kid's like, look at this.

01:28:24.000 Because kids can be pretty dickish in school. 0.99

01:28:26.000 I've had kids come up and do some pretty cruel shit to me. 1.00

01:28:29.000 And if a kid just shows someone some horrid shit, do you blame their parent? 1.00

01:28:32.000 Do you have to guilt by association? 1.00

01:28:35.000 Or do you, what do you do, take, what were you going to say?

01:28:37.000 Well, I mean, like, right now, they're literally just like, this is you.

01:28:40.000 Naked.

01:28:41.000 You know, I mean, that's what they're doing.

01:28:42.000 They got these AI-generated... I mean, they could literally just, like, show you what seems to be you without clothes on.

01:28:48.000 I mean, that's how crazy AI is, and how quickly it's erupted.

01:28:52.000 I mean, in terms of who do you appeal to first, I mean, my first thought would be the parents, but I guess everybody would deal with it differently.

01:28:59.000 Do you think it's like too tyrannical to petition public schools to ban, like the Department of Education to ban phones, cell phones from public schools?

01:29:08.000 Maybe, maybe not.

01:29:09.000 Maybe it's a good idea.

01:29:10.000 I mean, it's very difficult to control, you know, because, for example, I have a young niece and she's at school, this is in Italy, we have the same issues, and her parents told her not to bring, they never allowed her to have a phone, but when she goes to school, all her friends at school have a phone, so just play with their phone, you know?

01:29:31.000 So maybe this is a solution.

01:29:34.000 How old are your kids?

01:29:36.000 She is eight.

01:29:39.000 Yeah, homeschool.

01:29:40.000 Homeschool your kids. 0.99

01:29:41.000 Kids don't listen to you at home.

01:29:42.000 Homeschool, yeah.

01:29:44.000 I think homeschool is the safest.

01:29:45.000 My kids are really young, you know, and they listen as good as they can.

01:29:48.000 They're, you know, three and a half and two.

01:29:50.000 But I've also talked to parents that have done the homeschooling thing, and they often report that my kids don't listen to me.

01:29:57.000 And they don't listen in school either.

01:29:59.000 Right, but I've also heard stories from people that are just like, well I couldn't teach my kid how to play guitar, even though I'm a guitar player.

01:30:07.000 My kid will not listen to me, so he had to send his kid to a professional teacher.

01:30:12.000 I mean, I know it sounds counterintuitive, I know it sounds counterintuitive, but this is the anecdotal stories that I'm hearing as I'm really trying to sort out what I'm going to do with these kids when it comes time to go into school.

01:30:22.000 And I'm totally conflicted about it.

01:30:24.000 I've got some time to figure it out, but I really don't know what the right move is.

01:30:29.000 I think the right move is what humans did for 40,000 years, 50,000 years.

01:30:33.000 But we're not in that time anymore.

01:30:36.000 We're into the vortex.

01:30:37.000 I can see why that phenomenon you're talking about happens.

01:30:41.000 The external authority is like, okay, it's not, my parents have been telling me what to do for three, five years.

01:30:46.000 I'm whatever.

01:30:47.000 You're telling me one more thing to do.

01:30:48.000 This guy now is telling me something new and he's fresh.

01:30:51.000 So I've got some added intensity to this being told.

01:30:55.000 So maybe if you have a tutor come over to your house and teach them with you and let the kids know you're as good as they are and you're an equal authority, then they'll look to you with that value.

01:31:04.000 Well, perhaps.

01:31:05.000 Homeschool your kids. 0.99

01:31:06.000 It's probably the only solution.

01:31:08.000 Or like do it in the backyard or get out of the house.

01:31:12.000 Do you think changing the venue might help?

01:31:13.000 I don't know.

01:31:13.000 I'm just throwing stuff out there.

01:31:15.000 Maybe not.

01:31:16.000 It's really tough to say.

01:31:17.000 The other thing is that like what I've heard is that like kids that have really bad home lives will behave at home because they're terrified of what their parents will do.

01:31:26.000 But then they go to you know daycare or like a preschool and they're wild.

01:31:31.000 They act crazy and they have problems at school.

01:31:34.000 But kids that have a good home life They act crazy at home, but they behave themselves outside of the home, because they get all that stuff out with their parents.

01:31:45.000 But when they're with somebody that's not their parents, they already know how to behave.

01:31:49.000 I talk to a lot of people that are parents, and I'm really trying to sort this out for myself.

01:31:52.000 And I think it's really, really complicated.

01:31:54.000 It's more complicated than just homeschool your kids, is what I'm getting at.

01:31:57.000 Yeah, but I mean, like, even back in the day, some dude would get a homestead in the middle of nowhere with his family.

01:32:02.000 He'd have, like, four or five kids and a wife, and they- the kids would farm and the kids would work.

01:32:07.000 Great.

01:32:08.000 We're not back in the day, though.

01:32:10.000 We're not back in the day.

01:32:11.000 So what's the issue?

01:32:14.000 I will get back to you on that.

01:32:15.000 I don't know.

01:32:15.000 Because we're in the 21st century, children have just stopped acting like children have for hundreds of thousands of years.

01:32:22.000 I don't think that's necessarily a crazy thing to posit.

01:32:25.000 Because I mean, like, look, I mean, we were just talking about how, like, you have AI generated nudes that people are showing each other of themselves in high schools.

01:32:32.000 But that's why you don't, you homeschool your kids.

01:32:34.000 I know, but you don't give your kid phones.

01:32:37.000 You don't give your kid phones?

01:32:38.000 Yeah, don't give your kid a phone.

01:32:39.000 So when do you give your kid a phone?

01:32:40.000 16 maybe?

01:32:43.000 Okay, so you're a 16-year-old in school, you have your phone, like... No, you're not in school, you're homeschooled!

01:32:48.000 But, I mean, like, the problem with the phone technology still exists.

01:32:52.000 Yeah, friends, if they have a friend that has a phone or they have their mom's phone or something... So you don't... And you just don't let them hang out at that person's house because they have a phone at the house?

01:33:00.000 That's intense.

01:33:01.000 That...

01:33:02.000 I mean, my mom wouldn't- I knew a kid in the neighborhood that put gasoline on the ground and lit it on fire, and they were all like, haha, yeah!

01:33:08.000 And I went home and I told my parents, I was like, it was cool, we were like- And my dad was like, you can never hang out with him again, he's a fireman.

01:33:14.000 And I never hung out with him again.

01:33:15.000 Never saw him again.

01:33:16.000 You can accept that moral degeneracy is here to stay.

01:33:18.000 That children are gonna get access to phones, and scat porn, and snuff, and murder, and all these things, and there's nothing you can do about it, so give up.

01:33:25.000 Give up.

01:33:26.000 This is the position that conservatives have taken on abortion.

01:33:29.000 Conservatives have said, we cannot win the abortion argument, so abandon it.

01:33:32.000 And Trump came out and said, we'll let the states decide.

01:33:35.000 They're literally saying it's baby murder, but the states can decide if they want to murder babies. 0.93

01:33:38.000 They've abandoned the moral position.

01:33:40.000 This is why many pro-lifers are mad at Trump right now, because he's not arguing.

01:33:44.000 So if the argument is, look, we're in this era, you can't stop kids, they're going to do it, then accept your kids will grow up to be degenerates.

01:33:52.000 It's gonna happen, have fun.

01:33:53.000 You can't do anything about it.

01:33:54.000 Or you can homeschool your kids and reject it, and do your best to keep your family away from this stuff.

01:33:59.000 And then perhaps there'll be regenerates.

01:34:02.000 Regenerates.

01:34:03.000 Redemption pattern from the generation.

01:34:09.000 I'm raising a bunch of regeneration.

01:34:11.000 I think the reason why, you know, we had Nick Freitas on the show.

01:34:15.000 Great guy.

01:34:16.000 Talking about his family and I was like, I feel like, you know, I asked him about his family and I mentioned the phase of, you know, I hate you dad.

01:34:23.000 And he's like, we never had that.

01:34:24.000 And I was like, I figured, and I was going to ask you this because of just like his moral demeanor and the way he behaves and stuff.

01:34:30.000 I don't think, I was like, based on who he is, he would have that phase where his kids were like, I hate you.

01:34:35.000 And I said, I think the reason we've developed this, I hate you dad phase is because parents leave their kids.

01:34:42.000 How was it for tens of thousands of years?

01:34:44.000 As soon as the kid was old enough, he was grabbing the wood to help the dad.

01:34:47.000 He'd say, do what you can.

01:34:50.000 The kid was, he's like, okay, you're, you're six, you're old enough now, pick up that bucket of water and bring it over to me.

01:34:54.000 And the kid would do it.

01:34:56.000 And so that kid was with the dad and the mom all day working at the house and working on the house was how you did things.

01:35:01.000 Now today, dad leaves and the kids are sitting there with no dad.

01:35:06.000 And then dad comes home and the kids have no idea what dad does.

01:35:09.000 And then kids are spending most of their time and their authority figures are strangers.

01:35:13.000 So now you're getting the, I hate you dad or mom.

01:35:17.000 They're not going to listen to what you say because you are actually not their real parent.

01:35:22.000 You're a biological parent.

01:35:23.000 But you are not the person who has been the whole time teaching them how to live. 0.99

01:35:26.000 You've been an ancillary character there half the time, while the other half, it's been a group of strangers in a building who treat them like crap. 0.98

01:35:33.000 And that's what we've been for a hundred years. 0.96

01:35:35.000 My parents did a pretty cool thing where they unified.

01:35:38.000 I was never able to get one of them to do something the other one wouldn't allow.

01:35:41.000 They were like behind my back, a solid unit.

01:35:44.000 And so I kind of, my dad would work for two days at a time.

01:35:47.000 He's a fireman for 24 hours.

01:35:48.000 He'd go work at a hospital.

01:35:49.000 He's an orthopedic technician.

01:35:50.000 Then he'd come back on day three and he'd be with us for a day.

01:35:52.000 And so I didn't see him a lot, but because they were so unified, I felt like he was still present.

01:35:57.000 And we would still, my mom would take us to go see him, give him lunch every once in a while, but I felt like he was still present.

01:36:02.000 So when he was there, I still sensed his authority through her, and I could tell like he was the man in the house when he was around.

01:36:08.000 And the way it used to be was that kids lived basically the same lives as their grandparents.

01:36:13.000 Granddad woke up, and he tended the crops and the chickens, and he'd feed the pigs, and then he'd come in, and then he'd take care of, you know, house stuff.

01:36:19.000 He'd be building something, and the kids would watch him, and then when the kid was old enough, he'd be like, hey, hand me that hammer.

01:36:24.000 Here, let me show you what I'm doing.

01:36:26.000 Then the kid's a teenager, and he's like, you're responsible for the chickens now.

01:36:28.000 You're old enough.

01:36:29.000 And then the kid would become an adult and be like, Dad, I'm gonna get married.

01:36:32.000 I'm 18 years old.

01:36:33.000 And he's like, there's a...

01:36:35.000 Very fine.

01:36:35.000 Mary Sue down the street.

01:36:36.000 Wow.

01:36:37.000 Mary Sue.

01:36:37.000 And the families would come together and there'd be a dowry.

01:36:39.000 Then they'd all come together and help build a house for the kid.

01:36:42.000 And then the kid would grow up doing literally what his dad did, what his granddad did.

01:36:46.000 And their lives were very similar and they were learning from each other.

01:36:49.000 And then we industrialized.

01:36:50.000 And then we were like, time to put kids in pseudo factories where the bell rings every shift change so they can be good little workers.

01:36:58.000 Take them from their parents and put them in the coal mines. 0.98

01:37:00.000 And then all of a sudden the kids are not learning from their parents anymore.

01:37:04.000 We totally separate family, and then it's no surprise, the level of degeneracy that we have now.

01:37:09.000 It's like you ask yourself, how we went thousands of years with zero degeneracy, and then in the span of three generations, we went as far as you could possibly go.

01:37:19.000 Because we cut kids off from their parents.

01:37:21.000 And we haven't seen the last 2,000, there might've been a lot of degen in the last 2,000 years of degeneracy, but a lot of it's on camera now, so it's undeniable. 0.99

01:37:30.000 It's documented.

01:37:32.000 And it's all about leading by example, right?

01:37:35.000 When you take over, that's what happens.

01:37:39.000 I mean, like before it was completely different, you know, I come from Italy where it's a pretty conservative, you know, lifestyle and still we have a reality like that.

01:37:47.000 But I can see this shifting and getting closer and closer to what we see here now.

01:37:53.000 Who's the Italian Prime Minister?

01:37:54.000 It's Giorgia Meloni.

01:37:56.000 Yeah, is she cool?

01:37:57.000 She seemed like she was actually like a nationalist.

01:37:59.000 Yeah, she's actually a big, big right-wing patriot. 1.00

01:38:04.000 She used to emulate Donald Trump up to the election, but now she's kind of disappointing me for her policies toward immigration. 1.00

01:38:13.000 Yes, we are experiencing illegal immigration flaws unprecedented as before.

01:38:20.000 Italy is just kind of bending to European Union socialist dictatorship when it comes to certain policies.

01:38:29.000 So she has been voted on a very incredible platform.

01:38:33.000 I was one of the people that voted for her.

01:38:35.000 But I think some of her promises are not truly met at the moment, but definitely yes.

01:38:42.000 Even the most liberal of Italians is a conservative here, so it's a kind of difference looking into politics.

01:39:08.000 The first comment I'm gonna read is from a member.

01:39:10.000 He said, Tim raised a cat, sorta like a kid.

01:39:14.000 Two cats!

01:39:15.000 Okay?

01:39:15.000 Get it right.

01:39:16.000 And I did right by Mr. Boca.

01:39:18.000 See, we isolated him from the other cats because they had bad behaviors.

01:39:21.000 And so that was the point.

01:39:22.000 He learned from me how to be a cat.

01:39:24.000 He was a good cat.

01:39:25.000 Yeah, I had to scratch things to teach him how to scratch.

01:39:27.000 And, uh, he was a good cat.

01:39:28.000 Everyone agrees.

01:39:29.000 I rubbed his back one time and he swiped at me, but he- His nail came out just close to my forehead, and I was like, it was a warning.

01:39:36.000 I respected Bucko.

01:39:37.000 I trained him.

01:39:37.000 I said, I said, Bocas, if Ian ever comes at you, you gotta give him the old one-two, man.

01:39:42.000 And then he was like, I was like, one-two, one-two.

01:39:44.000 And then, and then he learned.

01:39:46.000 If only he didn't pee everywhere.

01:39:48.000 I was like grabbing his back and like rubbing his back.

01:39:51.000 He didn't look angry.

01:39:53.000 Aw, dude, he would just, no matter what, he would just pee everywhere.

01:39:56.000 I don't get it.

01:39:56.000 Man, my parents, I tell my parents, it's so wild, but they would always teach me, like, don't get male cats.

01:40:00.000 Do not get a male cat.

01:40:01.000 They'll pee all over your house. 1.00

01:40:03.000 No, no, Seamus doesn't do that.

01:40:05.000 He doesn't?

01:40:05.000 Yeah, Seamus is pretty chill.

01:40:06.000 Okay, then it's just bucko.

01:40:07.000 He's a wild cat.

01:40:08.000 Seamus rolls around on the floor in the house, and then he goes and takes a dump in his box.

01:40:13.000 I love that cat, by the way.

01:40:14.000 Do you have cats?

01:40:15.000 We did.

01:40:15.000 The cat we're talking about just died like a month ago.

01:40:18.000 It was really sad.

01:40:19.000 He was wasting away.

01:40:21.000 He had kidney problems.

01:40:22.000 He was born on the street, gutter cat, so he didn't have underdeveloped organs and stuff.

01:40:27.000 And then we got him stem cells.

01:40:28.000 We did a lot for the guy, and it was really great to have him around.

01:40:30.000 But he was like a wild cat inside.

01:40:32.000 His kidneys were too small.

01:40:33.000 You might be able to smell his remnants here in his urine.

01:40:35.000 His adult body was- the kidneys were doing twice the work for a cat, so he eventually just- But, uh, Seamus is chubby.

01:40:41.000 Yeah, Seamus is a great cat.

01:40:42.000 You should bring him on the show someday.

01:40:44.000 Is Seamus here?

01:40:45.000 He's at the other house.

01:40:47.000 Seamus is, uh, sassy and chubby. 0.99

01:40:49.000 He's fat and sassy. 0.95

01:40:50.000 Yeah. 0.98

01:40:51.000 We're talking about Seamus 1, not the cartoonist.

01:40:53.000 That's Seamus 2.

01:40:55.000 Who will be here in, like, two weeks.

01:40:57.000 Alright, here we go.

01:40:57.000 Clint Torres says, Howdy, people!

01:40:59.000 Howdy! 0.99

01:41:01.000 Shane H. Wilder says, Tim, I would love to hear you do a full review of Civil War, but I'd probably die of alcohol poisoning.

01:41:06.000 I guess what I would say the most disappointing thing is, I'd like to see a movie about a civil war, not a movie about journalists on an adventure.

01:41:13.000 But as someone who's done conflict reporting, there was a lot that I really liked about it.

01:41:17.000 There was one scene in the beginning where when the, what I would describe as the MAGA suicider blows up and kills a bunch of innocent people, because that's the movie, I guess.

01:41:26.000 Uh, Kirsten Dunst's character walks over to the corpses and starts taking pictures, and then the young journalist looks at her and takes a picture of her doing it.

01:41:33.000 Yeah.

01:41:34.000 And I was like, that was good.

01:41:36.000 Because too many of these journalists, like, they, it's, it's even in the movie they do this, and I'm just like, I know, I know who they consulted with.

01:41:43.000 These people are such awful.

01:41:45.000 There's, like, they're all hanging out at the hotel laughing and comparing their photos of corpses and everything, and they're like, wow, that's a really good one pointing to a guy bleeding to death, and, uh, they laugh about it. 0.92

01:41:56.000 And they enjoy doing it and they're all partying and drinking and they think they're special.

01:42:01.000 So there's like numerous instances where in the movie they act like they're not there as people during a shootout. 0.99

01:42:08.000 And there are some scenes where it like, you know, bites them in the ass and so that's good. 0.98

01:42:13.000 Uh, that they show that I think it's important people realize this. 0.99

01:42:15.000 The story I like to tell is when I was in, uh, Ferguson, and the protesters all left one day, and there were like 30 journalists in one big cluttered bunch in front of, uh, like some kind of APC.

01:42:28.000 And they're all taking pictures, just slowly walking backwards.

01:42:32.000 And the truck is slowly moving forward going, You must disperse!

01:42:36.000 Go home now!

01:42:37.000 And there's no protesters anywhere!

01:42:40.000 It's literally just journalists.

01:42:41.000 Journalists.

01:42:42.000 Taking pictures.

01:42:43.000 And then the APC goes, Journalists!

01:42:45.000 We are talking to you!

01:42:47.000 You must disperse!

01:42:48.000 But these people are...

01:42:51.000 They think they're special.

01:42:53.000 And so they're like, I'm gonna get that really cool picture.

01:42:56.000 I've seen journalists stage photos every single time I've been at a protest.

01:42:59.000 In Anaheim, there was one famous incident that went viral where they asked the protesters to pause and display the flag for them.

01:43:05.000 A journalist is like, hey, can you come down and hold that flag up for me?

01:43:08.000 Gets a picture.

01:43:09.000 And then they're like, you're asking the participants to pose for you?

01:43:12.000 And they're like, what do you mean?

01:43:13.000 Yeah, they do it all the time. 0.99

01:43:15.000 It's so fake.

01:43:16.000 I can't stand these people.

01:43:17.000 But anyway, that's why I enjoyed it.

01:43:19.000 There's like, in the beginning, the young reporter gets smacked in the face by a truncheon, and Kirsten Dunst is like, put this vest on.

01:43:27.000 And she's like, no, I'm not gonna, she's like, put it on! 0.97

01:43:29.000 And I'm like, oh, it's so obvious they had the stupidest mainstream journalist with no conflict experience telling these people what to do, okay? 0.96

01:43:39.000 Because like, an insurance company is gonna say, wear a vest. 0.96

01:43:43.000 A conflict reporter is going to say, depending on the situation, a vest is a target, so know your surroundings and decide when it's appropriate.

01:43:51.000 And so this idea that like, you're a young journalist in New York, you better wear your neon vest, I was like, oh please dude.

01:43:57.000 There was a famous story of like a journalist went to, I think it was like Iraq, and she wore a press helmet, body armor, and she got shot and killed.

01:44:06.000 And then another journalist went and she wore hijab and she walked around with no problems for years, filming and taking photos.

01:44:12.000 And like the story... And hostile environment courses will teach you this.

01:44:17.000 They'll tell you this.

01:44:17.000 They'll say, yeah, because they're looking for the journalists.

01:44:22.000 And if you're an insurgent group, you do not like journalists.

01:44:26.000 That's what got me in.

01:44:28.000 We are doing a little bit of spoilers.

01:44:29.000 I saw someone in the comments was like, oh my god, spoilers!

01:44:31.000 We spoiled the movie early on in the show.

01:44:32.000 I'm going to do it again right now.

01:44:34.000 Why were they driving around where it said press on the van?

01:44:38.000 It's like a target.

01:44:38.000 It's like just a bullet target.

01:44:40.000 You don't want press coming up on you if you're doing some insurgency work.

01:44:44.000 Well, they weren't insurgents.

01:44:46.000 And in this regard, I'd say they were correct to write press on their vehicle.

01:44:49.000 You think so?

01:44:49.000 You think it was more of a bulletproof vest than a target?

01:44:52.000 So, if you're driving through conflict territory, you're probably better off marking your vehicle press. 0.98

01:44:58.000 Or actually, what a lot of the journalists do because they're scumbags, they put red crosses on it. 0.94

01:45:02.000 Far-left activists do this all the time, and this is why these symbols become meaningless. 0.96

01:45:06.000 And that's why, often, it's like, don't do anything.

01:45:09.000 Because, you know, partly, you are correct, Ian, you'll see this at all these Antifa protests, they'll put red crosses on their arms, clearly Antifa, throwing bricks at cops, with masks on, and then when the cops start fighting back, the Antifa journalist starts filming, and then they go, I'm a medic!

01:45:26.000 Please, please!

01:45:27.000 And then they go, oh, the cops are attacking medics, oh!

01:45:31.000 All fake.

01:45:31.000 That's why the cops like, you're not a journalist, you're not a medic, move.

01:45:34.000 Yeah.

01:45:35.000 But they fake it.

01:45:36.000 Yeah, dude.

01:45:37.000 It's like urban warfare, man.

01:45:39.000 Deception.

01:45:41.000 All right, Raymond G. Stanley Jr.

01:45:42.000 says, I saw Civil War, 7 out of 10.

01:45:44.000 A movie named that should be about a civil war.

01:45:46.000 I didn't get lost in the story or root for any of the characters.

01:45:49.000 No lost in escapism.

01:45:51.000 Trump's last quote was kind of funny.

01:45:53.000 It's funny that Raymond called him Trump.

01:45:55.000 It was very obviously Trump.

01:45:57.000 But Nick Offerman said that he's definitely not Trump.

01:46:00.000 Did he really say that?

01:46:01.000 Yeah, he said, I got the quote right here, he said, honestly, no, when you see the movie, it's unattached to anything in modern politics, not only in our country, but any country.

01:46:10.000 The opening of the movie is Nick Offerman, and it's him practicing his lines going, we're on the verge of the greatest victory.

01:46:18.000 Some say the greatest victory in military history.

01:46:21.000 And it's like, yeah, OK, like there's one president that says some said it was the greatest.

01:46:26.000 That's like, literally riding a trumpline.

01:46:29.000 And then the, uh, what is it, like, that Jesse Plemons scene from the trailer where he's like, what kind of American are you?

01:46:37.000 That was such a bait and switch.

01:46:41.000 You, like, the insinuation is like, are you left?

01:46:44.000 Are you right?

01:46:45.000 No, he goes, which kind of American are you?

01:46:45.000 Which side are you on?

01:46:48.000 North American?

01:46:49.000 South American?

01:46:49.000 Central?

01:46:50.000 And the guy goes, Florida.

01:46:51.000 He goes, oh, okay.

01:46:52.000 Like, oh, so he wasn't asking him, like, he's like, yeah, that's American, alright.

01:46:58.000 Yeah, anyway.

01:46:59.000 Alright.

01:47:01.000 Prent M says, Tim, was there a reason I was forcibly subjected to an ad when your stream started?

01:47:06.000 It's because YouTube runs ads on the show.

01:47:10.000 Non-partisan Kitty says, give it to me, the Bocas Beanie. 0.59

01:47:14.000 Oh yeah, maybe we can make Bocas Beanies. 0.96

01:47:15.000 Yes!

01:47:17.000 Seamus is the new kid.

01:47:19.000 Alright, Raymond G. Stanley Jr.

01:47:20.000 says, Tim, Team Western Front or Team U.S.

01:47:23.000 Government?

01:47:24.000 There's no heavy backstory, so we don't know for sure what's happening.

01:47:30.000 One of the remarks, like you learn some of the story when one of the journalists says, oh, you're going to ask the president questions.

01:47:36.000 And then he starts asking questions that he wants the guy to ask.

01:47:39.000 And one of them is, has your policy changed around using airstrikes on American citizens?

01:47:44.000 And then he's like, that's what I'm talking about.

01:47:45.000 And I'm like, like Barack Obama.

01:47:48.000 Ah, so the switch.

01:47:51.000 But it's clearly Trump.

01:47:52.000 And so the insinuation, if I were to look at that film, the way everything breaks down, it is that Texas is on the verge of turning blue now.

01:48:04.000 A year or a few years from now, there is an Antifa massacre, which escalates tensions.

01:48:10.000 Donald Trump ends up winning a third term, or he wins second term.

01:48:16.000 And it is fair to say it's not Trump in the sense of the film.

01:48:19.000 Yeah, because it's 20 years in the future.

01:48:20.000 The film has to be 20 years in the future.

01:48:22.000 It has to be.

01:48:22.000 Because, she says, you got your start because when you were in college, you got a picture of the Antifa massacre.

01:48:28.000 So, considering the Antifa massacre has not occurred, and if this is presumably in a comparable, like, based on our timeline, then it would have to be at least a year from now, or this year later on, which means Kirsten Dunst, who is 41 years old, and presumably is 41 years old in the movie, was around the age of 20 to 24 at the time.

01:48:48.000 So it's just about 20 years in the future.

01:48:50.000 So which means it probably would not be Trump, but it would be next Trump or something.

01:48:56.000 It was someone who's acting like Trump.

01:48:58.000 It's legacy.

01:48:59.000 It's right.

01:48:59.000 And so when I say it's Trump, you could reasonably say it is MAGA.

01:49:04.000 It's MAGA.

01:49:05.000 It is the heir of MAGA, who after it gets elected,

01:49:08.000 there's an Antifa massacre.

01:49:09.000 They don't say if Antifa killed or was killed, they just call it the Antifa massacre.

01:49:13.000 And then the assumption is based on the narrative.

01:49:17.000 A conflict happens, the president uses airstrikes to stop the conflict,

01:49:21.000 which results in various factions forming and, you know.

01:49:25.000 Or it could be that, like, California secedes because he wins a third term, so then to try and seize control of the country, he airstrikes it, which results in other states seceding, or something like that.

01:49:35.000 Well, they know that Trump created the movement that is much bigger than him, and it will survive him.

01:49:39.000 That's why they targeted MAGA people, too, you know?

01:49:42.000 With January 6th, they try to portray them as terrorists and then, you know, trying to delegitimize everything he represents and everyone who can potentially bring his legacy in the future.

01:49:55.000 And that's, to me, makes completely sense that they're targeting entire movements because he's the only president who created a movement, by the way.

01:50:03.000 Who else?

01:50:04.000 Juan Castle says, ban all raccoons now.

01:50:06.000 Tim, get Elon Musk on IRL.

01:50:09.000 Easier said than done.

01:50:10.000 But okay, I guess, you know, we'll work on it.

01:50:13.000 What I'm planning on doing is getting justice for Mr. Muttonchops. 1.00

01:50:17.000 You know, I'll tell you something weird.

01:50:18.000 This morning, when I rode my bike up to the studio, as I drive up to the front, I can see Mr. Muttonchops has jumped out already.

01:50:27.000 And I saw him standing next to the entrance, where the gate opens up and you can put him back in.

01:50:32.000 And I thought to myself, as soon as I saw it, I was thinking, like, he's gonna die.

01:50:38.000 I just like, that's exactly what hit my mind.

01:50:40.000 And I just ignored that feeling.

01:50:42.000 And then I went inside, and then as soon as I finished my morning show, I got the message, he's dead.

01:50:46.000 Wow.

01:50:47.000 His feathers are scattered all across the lawn.

01:50:48.000 We saw a fox out in the back.

01:50:50.000 And so we will appropriately seek justice in whatever form, but I'll leave it at that.

01:50:57.000 Justice, I think, would be to build a better city.

01:51:01.000 Neo-Chicken City with a gazebo, with a roof, because then the rain won't get the poop nasty.

01:51:06.000 Right. And we're, uh, we're, we're the new and improved.

01:51:09.000 Yeah. So this is a old chicken city was the small one and it's been, it was destroyed a long

01:51:13.000 time ago. And, uh, this is actually new chicken city and it's got the established 2020.

01:51:19.000 And so now what we're building is Neo-Chicken City. 0.68

01:51:22.000 Which is gonna be like Tokyo Futurism.

01:51:24.000 What about it?

01:51:24.000 And we're gonna give all the chickens neon sunglasses.

01:51:26.000 What about a Clux Capacitor?

01:51:28.000 That's a hilly... yeah.

01:51:31.000 That's what Thomas Massey built, this giant contraption that moves with solar power throughout the day and its chickens graze in new areas.

01:51:37.000 Alright, let's read some more.

01:51:39.000 The engaged few says they actually believe that West Virginia would remain loyal to the national government.

01:51:44.000 Clearly they've never looked at either West Virginia's history or populist political history.

01:51:48.000 I disagree with you, sir.

01:51:49.000 I believe that West Virginia absolutely would be a loyalist state.

01:51:52.000 Assuming Donald Trump was the president.

01:51:54.000 See, that's the point.

01:51:55.000 Take a look at that map.

01:51:56.000 And it's like, I get it.

01:51:57.000 New York's in there too.

01:51:59.000 But West Virginia certainly makes sense when you consider the president is Trump.

01:52:03.000 And then Texas seceding makes sense.

01:52:05.000 California and the Pacific Northwest going Maoist.

01:52:07.000 They explicitly say Maoist in the film.

01:52:09.000 They say the Portland Maoists when they're referring to that faction in the Northwest.

01:52:13.000 So it sounds like China aided the far left and they expanded through Minnesota and they seized all the territory.

01:52:22.000 That's what it seems like.

01:52:24.000 But I'd say this too, even if it was Joe Biden who was like the bad guy, you know, and it was the red states trying to secede, West Virginia would still be a loyalist state because of proximity to D.C.

01:52:38.000 The military capabilities in this area are insane.

01:52:42.000 West Virginia ain't going nowhere.

01:52:43.000 Yeah, and it's a point that you would need to seize and take.

01:52:46.000 Like, Harper's Ferry is such a defensive bastion with the mountains and the rivers and a transportation network and stuff.

01:52:54.000 An authentic tin can says, Tim, look up the Hearts of Iron IV mod, Kaiser Reaches U.S.

01:53:01.000 Civil War, and tell me you don't see the similarities?

01:53:04.000 Do you want to look that up?

01:53:04.000 I don't know what that is.

01:53:05.000 Hearts of Iron IV is a Paradox game, Grand Strategy game, World War II game.

01:53:09.000 I haven't, what's the mod?

01:53:10.000 It's some, like an American mod?

01:53:13.000 Devin Porter says California and Texas make perfect sense.

01:53:15.000 That's where they're storing most of the criminal aliens they've been shipping into the U.S. 0.70

01:53:18.000 I agree, too.

01:53:20.000 The narrative is that within 20 years, Texas goes blue.

01:53:25.000 And then, that's it.

01:53:27.000 The Texas and California governments team up.

01:53:29.000 But I like their original where they each kind of split off on their own, because I think Texas would just go independent.

01:53:34.000 They don't care about American politics.

01:53:36.000 Yes, but not in 20 years.

01:53:38.000 The idea is that there's an argument Texas is becoming more red because the exodus from California, but it was fairly close before and some people are saying it's becoming a purple state.

01:53:48.000 The idea being that if all of these criminal aliens come in, California and Texas are both going to be blue.

01:53:52.000 And then with 51% of the population, they will install a super majority of Democrats in the state.

01:53:59.000 And the president even refers to the subjugated people of Texas in the film.

01:54:04.000 So it's possible that Texas is split in half.

01:54:08.000 There is no wall on this border.

01:54:12.000 Metaphorically and physically.

01:54:16.000 Evie Man says, Tim, did you see David Hogg get absolutely wrecked by Lily Tang Williams on the subject of gun control?

01:54:22.000 Dragon lady for the win. I was reading a bit about Spike and David Hogg's debate and

01:54:27.000 My understanding is that David Hogg won the debate?

01:54:30.000 I'd like to see it Is it available?

01:54:34.000 It's about 80 minutes long.

01:54:35.000 I didn't catch all of it.

01:54:36.000 I just caught some excerpts.

01:54:37.000 I mean, it's like I said earlier, Spike has a bunch of graphs that the audience can't see.

01:54:42.000 He's arguing data.

01:54:43.000 And at one point, the moderator is just like, OK.

01:54:46.000 So after Spike throws out all this data, it's a little overwhelming.

01:54:50.000 The moderator says, OK, so David, why do we have this problem in this country?

01:54:53.000 He goes, because it's the guns.

01:54:55.000 It's the guns and the guns.

01:54:56.000 Because we have guns.

01:54:57.000 And then people in the audience agreed.

01:54:58.000 Yeah.

01:54:59.000 So, I don't know much about it other than that someone said that the audience ended up siding with David Hogg.

01:55:03.000 Well, I think Spike and David would be a good duo on Culture War, if David would like to come in and do a neutral panel and let them talk about it.

01:55:12.000 I think the problem with the right, and probably the reason David agreed to debate Spike, is that David is better at manipulating people than Spike is, and so you end up with a guy showing charts and graphs and being like, the data clearly shows that if we do this, and then David Hogg goes, and then they shot a baby.

01:55:33.000 And the audience goes, oh, a baby.

01:55:36.000 Because of guns.

01:55:36.000 That's right.

01:55:38.000 And they go, whoa.

01:55:39.000 It's like, did you know you can buy a gun?

01:55:42.000 No.

01:55:43.000 Yeah.

01:55:44.000 And guns kill babies. 1.00

01:55:46.000 It's like a family guy joke where Lois is running for office.

01:55:48.000 She goes, nine.

01:55:49.000 Eleven.

01:55:51.000 And they go, oh!

01:55:52.000 And start screaming and cheering.

01:55:53.000 Dude, like.

01:55:55.000 Well, the right, you know, Ben Shapiro says facts don't care about your feelings.

01:56:00.000 And then everyone on the right starts hooting and hollering and running around the room waving their arms around.

01:56:03.000 And feelings don't care about your facts.

01:56:07.000 And feelings are easier to communicate to because facts are hard to understand.

01:56:11.000 So they always say people will not remember what you what you told them or the what is it what is it what is saying?

01:56:16.000 People will remember what you say they'll remember how you made them feel.

01:56:20.000 So when David Hogg makes you feel sad and scared, You'll end up checking off the box being like, yeah, he was right.

01:56:25.000 I was scared.

01:56:26.000 You saw something.

01:56:27.000 Was it that pedantic or did it actually, was he making great points?

01:56:30.000 I, I don't want to speak out of turn or anything.

01:56:32.000 I mean, like I said, I only saw a few excerpts because I wanted to cover it, but I'm gonna watch like 15 minutes out of 80 minutes, so I know there's a lot that I missed there.

01:56:40.000 But no, I mean, the few excerpts that I saw basically just relied on the same structure.

01:56:45.000 Data, graphs that perhaps the audience couldn't see, and Spike even acknowledged that.

01:56:49.000 He was just like, I know you guys can't see this.

01:56:51.000 And then David Hogg would just resort to, it's the guns.

01:56:54.000 Guns are the problem. 0.98

01:56:55.000 We have to have major gun regulation in this country.

01:56:59.000 Yeah, guns kills baby, what about abortions? 1.00

01:57:02.000 I mean, they don't have the same feeling for that?

01:57:04.000 Nope.

01:57:05.000 They don't, because you're taking away from them.

01:57:07.000 So the issue with the left is they're thinking, I want mine.

01:57:10.000 And you're like, guns could kill you.

01:57:11.000 They go, oh!

01:57:12.000 And they go, and then we'll take away your abortion. 1.00

01:57:14.000 They go, but then I have to be responsible?

01:57:16.000 What you need to say is, that may be David, but did you know that when you buy a gun, you get free ice cream?

01:57:22.000 And they go, what is that truth?

01:57:23.000 That's right.

01:57:24.000 That's right.

01:57:25.000 That's true.

01:57:26.000 And they'll go, wow, I think guns are great.

01:57:28.000 Did you know that because of guns, we have pizza?

01:57:32.000 Really?

01:57:32.000 That's right.

01:57:33.000 See, the original pizza was invented when a guy was trying to make a gun, but accidentally used wheat instead of iron, and then rolled it out, put tomato sauce and cheese on it, and it was pizza.

01:57:43.000 And they'll go, wow, that's right.

01:57:44.000 So you have to respect it.

01:57:45.000 I bet David, because I think he's going to be a prolific voice for gun rights in the future, in whatever direction, but like, that's why I want to, yeah, and I want to talk to him now, early on in his career, because if, you know, reasonable, we need reason in this country, and being able to have reasonable conversations with people you disagree with is the important part of that.

01:58:02.000 I just feel like, David, is it because of guns that a guy pushed another guy in front of a train in New York?

01:58:08.000 Is it because of guns that a guy punched a woman in the face in New York?

01:58:08.000 No.

01:58:12.000 No.

01:58:12.000 Is it because of guns that a guy scalded four people, four women and several other people in New York?

01:58:17.000 Did you guys hear that one?

01:58:18.000 A guy was taking boiling water and throwing it in people's faces.

01:58:21.000 Yes, it was in March.

01:58:22.000 I didn't even know it happened.

01:58:23.000 It's like so much crime in New York.

01:58:25.000 But guns are the problem.

01:58:26.000 It's like, I get that guns are like when there is a mass shooting incident, but like That's like, you know, you live in this world where you think it's the biggest problem in the world when peanuts kill more people.

01:58:37.000 Like, I don't think we're gonna ban peanuts anytime soon.

01:58:40.000 And 3D-printed guns, if people can craft them in their homes.

01:58:43.000 Like, trying to ban the information is insane.

01:58:45.000 Oh, I know!

01:58:46.000 Did Spike bring that up?

01:58:47.000 He may have, in the excerpts that I didn't see.

01:58:49.000 If he's like, it's the guns, guns are the problem, I'd be like, probably, but they're 3D printed now, so you can't do anything about it, so good luck regulating it.

01:58:55.000 It doesn't matter if you're right or wrong.

01:58:56.000 Debate's over.

01:58:57.000 Cat's out of the bag.

01:58:59.000 Guns can be 3D printed.

01:59:01.000 You can straight up make a fully 3D printed gun.

01:59:05.000 Fully plastic.

01:59:07.000 And well beyond the capabilities of Liberator, which was 10 plus years ago.

01:59:12.000 The videos they're putting out with this stuff is crazy, and now we're at the point where you have this 0% receiver, you get a metal block, and you put in an at-home CNC machine and it carves it out for you.

01:59:21.000 Like, you can't do anything about it!

01:59:23.000 And also, it's just like, David, you know, his problem is that he lives in 1940, because you know what he should be talking about? 0.94

01:59:23.000 It's ridiculous. 0.94

01:59:30.000 Directed energy weapons. 0.92

01:59:31.000 For real, man.

01:59:32.000 Ballistics of all kinds.

01:59:33.000 We should go deep on weaponry.

01:59:34.000 Railguns! 0.67

01:59:36.000 Yeah.

01:59:36.000 Alright, we'll grab a couple more of these here.

01:59:37.000 Superchats.

01:59:39.000 X10man says, the lefty writers screwed up when they named Alaska Polar Bear Cold State.

01:59:43.000 They should have called it Polar Bear's Dead Due to Global Warming State.

01:59:46.000 There's a scene where they breach the White House and there's a Secret Service agent who's unarmed and she's like, I'm here to negotiate.

01:59:53.000 And then she was like, can you guarantee safe passage for the President?

01:59:55.000 And they're like, no.

01:59:57.000 And then she's like, we want to go to neutral territory like Alaska. 0.93

02:00:00.000 And then the female special forces of the West, who's like doing this mission, just shoots and kills the negotiator. 1.00

02:00:05.000 It's like, okay, I guess. 0.62

02:00:08.000 And then they just storm in and yeah, it's pretty crazy.

02:00:11.000 Yeah.

02:00:13.000 Dragon Wolf says, hey Tim, I'm a long time Fallout fan.

02:00:17.000 With how they snubbed New Vegas in the show, Bethesda may have permanently fractured the community. 1.00

02:00:21.000 I am pissed.

02:00:21.000 I only watched the first episode.

02:00:23.000 We could do a whole episode on Fallout at some point.

02:00:25.000 I gotta watch it.

02:00:26.000 Oh, I was ranting to Ian how they screwed up the first episode so bad.

02:00:28.000 I wanna be in it.

02:00:29.000 I wanna be a scientist.

02:00:31.000 Help me get to the producer if you know people that work for the company.

02:00:34.000 I want to make that show the best show on earth.

02:00:35.000 I want to help them make an awesome, lush universe and play the role of a scientist from Atomics, General Atomics, from East Texas, who's like, hangs out and he's got an energy weapon, dude.

02:00:44.000 And he hangs out with the crew, that'd be so badass.

02:00:49.000 Alright.

02:00:50.000 Last one.

02:00:51.000 Rabid Wino says, so options are let the government raise our kids or let the parents raise their kids.

02:00:56.000 The government already rules us if we allow them to even be a choice.

02:00:59.000 No.
