The Civil War movie has finally been released and we just got back from the movie theater, and there are going to be spoilers in this show. We'll talk about the spoilers, and why the corporate media is trying to de-liberalize the film at the last minute. Plus, a story about a rooster named Mr. Muttonchops who would not stay caged in the Chicken City, and a raccoon got him.
00:00:00.000The Civil War movie has finally been released and we just got back from the movie theater.
00:00:12.000I don't know, we got back like an hour ago.
00:00:13.000And we watched it, and there are going to be spoilers in this show.
00:00:17.000I 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...
00:00:26.000The film is very obviously anti-Trump, leftist, liberal perspective, and it's unsurprising.
00:00:33.000We'll go into greater detail with that.
00:00:36.000I 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.
00:00:50.000Rotten 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.
00:00:58.000I think there was a desperate attempt to try and de-liberalize the film at the last minute.
00:01:06.000We'll start with light on the spoilers, only using public stuff, and then move into more spoilers.
00:01:10.000I 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.
00:02:19.000We 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.
00:02:25.000And now he is no longer living because a raccoon got him.

00:03:18.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and a whole lot more is Simona Mangiante.
00:03:22.000Hi Tim, thanks for inviting me and compliments for your accent.
00:03:25.000One of the few that really pronounce it the right way.
00:03:40.000I came to the United States six years ago.
00:03:43.000I 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.
00:03:56.000Then I always cultivated my passion for arts and this switch to acting as well.
00:04:03.000And now I'm an investigative journalist in political documentaries.
00:04:06.000After experiencing on my own skin the fake news, right?
00:04:10.000I 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.
00:04:25.000Alright, thanks for hanging out, it should be fun.
00:05:02.000As a huge fan of the Fallout IP in the series, I knew it's been getting worse and worse.
00:05:08.000The 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!
00:05:17.000This is gonna be awesome, and then I'm pausing every five seconds, but okay
00:05:21.000I have to explain this because she was like what's that?
00:05:23.000Why is this happening? What does that mean? What is this?
00:05:25.000Why is that and I'm like wow it's not a show. It's just them being like remember fallout
00:05:30.000Remember the vaults and my girlfriend's like I have no idea what the store. What what's happening in this show anyway?
00:05:36.000We'll get into it But let's jump into the big news.
00:05:43.000Yes, 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.
00:05:52.000But, you know, we're more interested in movies.
00:05:54.000So we're going to talk about this instead.
00:05:57.000Here's a story from the New York Times.
00:06:00.000We have met the enemy and it is us again.
00:06:04.000Rotten Tomatoes gives the film 83% and, uh, you can only guess what that means.
00:06:10.000Basically, everybody knows tomato meter is inverted.
00:06:13.000If tomato meter is- if the tomato meter is good, it means the movie sucks.
00:06:17.000And if the aud- usually it's like the audience score will be high and the tomato meter will be bad.
00:06:20.000I have a feeling when the audience score drops for this film, it will be bad.
00:06:24.000But 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.
00:06:34.000And 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.
00:07:56.000But then you can see Alaska is Polar Bear Cold State.
00:08:00.000And that is only somewhat slightly relevant to the film, but they did seem to change it.
00:08:07.000So 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.
00:08:26.000It's about four journalists on a road trip.
00:08:29.000And 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.
00:08:48.000Because it's... I would say it's partisan when you watch it, if you know anything about politics.
00:08:53.000Heavy political influences, very obvious political influences, and certainly a political perspective.
00:08:59.000They don't outright say it, but it is apparent.
00:09:03.000I think, uh, in the trailers, you can hear them say, the Western forces are approaching D.C.
00:09:09.000Well, back when this map came out, that meant Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, right?
00:09:17.000And then, of course, Minnesota is a mixed bag, and the Pacific Northwest, it's still largely right-leaning.
00:09:24.000Now the film is The Western Forces are California and Texas, which makes very little sense.
00:09:28.000So, uh, I'll pause there and let, you know, Ian and Serge chime in on this one a little bit too.
00:09:32.000But, 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.
00:09:45.000When 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!
00:11:24.000Yeah, so what we're hearing from a lot of people online is that it was slow and boring.
00:11:29.000And for me, it was actually cathartic.
00:11:31.000Because 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.
00:12:07.000Oh, I know that feeling so much, oh my god.
00:12:10.000Like, 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.
00:12:24.000When I was in Venezuela, gunshots ring out, like people are running and screaming.
00:13:14.000Like, why would they take that girl in the car in the first place?
00:13:16.000That's like a hard- They did explain it.
00:13:20.000I'm about to spoil the entire movie, just so you know.
00:13:25.000Let's start with the hard politics before we get into heavy plot points.
00:13:29.000So, 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.
00:13:49.000She breaks down and she's falling on the ground and he's trying to drag her.
00:13:53.000And, when there's, in the distance, I, look, A lot of people are saying the movie was slow and boring and not worth seeing.
00:13:59.000I 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.
00:14:07.000But 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.
00:14:16.000And she's like, we're not going anywhere near that.
00:14:19.000And then he was like, but come on, you feel it, right?
00:14:22.000And she's like, When the sun comes up.
00:14:25.000And he's like, I have such a f***ing hard-on for these guns!
00:14:58.000The 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.
00:15:53.000They didn't include that, you know what I mean?
00:15:55.000But 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.
00:16:51.000And 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.
00:17:09.000So, the one thing I will say, this movie was made by liberals who think they're neutral.
00:17:16.000There's not a single instance where they encounter any leftists.
00:17:32.000And 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...
00:17:47.000Currently in the world, there is a high likelihood chance that they will have women deployed as special forces on the most high-priority missions.
00:17:57.000And I'm not trying to be a dick, but you know what I mean?
00:18:02.000She wasn't a big, strong, bulking woman.
00:18:04.000And 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.
00:18:15.000In the middle of a civil war, he's just sitting at his desk.
00:18:42.000Alright, but now I'll give the big spoiler, now that I've given you fair warning.
00:18:46.000Uh, the movie starts with the Donald Trump character, and it's so obviously Donald Trump for a variety of reasons.
00:18:51.000Nick Offerman is in the film for 15 seconds, no joke.
00:18:55.000He's got probably 20 seconds of total face time, and an additional, like, 5 seconds of voice-over time.
00:19:02.000Wild how how little he's in the movie.
00:19:04.000I 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.
00:19:22.000It's Trump The journalists say things like, you're going to DC, are you crazy?
00:19:26.000They treat us like the enemy there, you'll be shot on sight.
00:20:41.000I should talk to some journalists who cover war.
00:20:44.000And they went and found some like 60 year old guys who covered war 40 years ago.
00:20:47.000And 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.
00:21:22.000So, when they make reference to that faction, though, it appears that they're saying Communists take over the Northwest of the United States.
00:21:29.000And they say Maoists, so it sounds like Chinese influence.
00:21:32.000I 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.
00:22:30.000I think The Departed was 2007, and they explicitly made cell phones act like weapons in that movie.
00:22:35.000Square 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.
00:22:43.000That was a very early example, but for the most part, yeah, you're right.
00:22:45.000I think they're doing that with drones here.
00:22:46.000I'd like to see a movie that understands drone warfare a little bit better.
00:22:50.000The horror of like an artificial intelligence taking over.
00:22:53.000Like one of these factions could have been an artificial intelligence.
00:22:57.000Yes, 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.
00:23:07.000I 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.
00:23:14.000Yeah, 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.
00:23:26.000I think it was like a sort of immunity system in place.
00:23:33.000The election and it was written in before right 2020.
00:23:37.000So I think it's actual now as we're heading to 2024.
00:23:41.000But already at the time, the risk of Donald Trump being confirmed as President of the United States was huge.
00:23:47.000So 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.
00:23:57.000You just mentioned how they give the president as speaking exactly like Donald Trump.
00:24:03.000Journalists ecstatic about giving the most sensational news with like, you know, like vultures basically on the set.
00:24:13.000And 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.
00:25:05.000I 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.
00:25:37.000But 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.
00:26:04.000And 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.
00:26:14.000Yeah, because he's sitting in the White House like an idiot.
00:26:59.000And well, it's funny because people have asked him about, like, isn't it crazy that you have Texas and California pairing up together?
00:27:06.000And his response is just like, no, they're pairing up against a fascist precedent.
00:27:09.000I mean, putting two states with their differences aside to defeat fascism?
00:27:13.000When you look at the original map, it was obvious it was meant to be, like, conservatives from Idaho, Utah, and Montana, and Wyoming.
00:27:21.000And then they changed it with the new map to Texas and California.
00:27:24.000For 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.
00:27:32.000But 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.
00:27:37.000Just make it, like, the bad guy versus everybody else.
00:27:40.000Well, I want to stress that too, like, you get that movie, what's it, White House Down or whatever?
00:27:46.000And 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.
00:27:52.000In this movie, it's quite literally an external faction attacking the President and the Secret Service.
00:27:59.000And you are, the characters you're supposed to be cheering for are happy it's happening.
00:28:03.000So 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.
00:28:24.000And then Nick Offerman's like, don't let them kill me.
00:28:56.000At some point, to stop riots and rebellions or whatever, orders airstrikes.
00:29:02.000In 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.
00:29:12.000It's very subtly like, if Trump wins, this is what he will do.
00:29:16.000He will kill journalists, he will kill you, his supporters will do this.
00:29:20.000The 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.
00:29:33.000And then in the end they're like, the orders are to kill the president on sight.
00:29:38.000A 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.
00:29:44.000They're just going about their business in some parts of the country.
00:29:46.000And it also captured the chaos of the actual conflict when you don't know who's who.
00:29:50.000You get shot at, you're just shooting back at whoever's shooting at you.
00:29:53.000And I think it also What were you saying, Serge?
00:29:58.000It really just highlighted the horror, the absolute devastating horror of a situation like that.
00:30:04.000But I don't even think it took it far enough, because there was no foreign interference.
00:30:06.000We 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.
00:30:32.000So 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.
00:31:33.000In the movie, they make it clear the president ordered airstrikes on Americans.
00:31:37.000But 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.
00:31:47.000If Biden ordered a drone strike on the criminal aliens invading the southern border, they'd call for his impeachment and removal right away.
00:31:54.000If 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.
00:32:03.000We've agreed a few a year ago, but after this, the way he's just malfunctioned, the Israeli conflict, he has no support anywhere.
00:32:09.000If he did that, I think that the entire country, even his own cabinet, would take him out.
00:32:15.000Make him step down or remove him from office if he was to do something like that.
00:32:19.000Maybe, but let's jump to the real world.
00:32:20.000So, outside of films, we have this from SCNR.
00:32:24.000Trump calls for NPR defunding after senior editor releases scathing op-ed they are a liberal disinformation machine.
00:32:32.000And 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.
00:32:52.000And so you had this, let me just read this.
00:32:54.000Senior business editor Yuri Berliner wrote in his op-ed that an open-minded curious culture prevailed throughout the network early in his career.
00:33:03.000Those said NPR's direction in recent years didn't accurately reflect on America.
00:33:07.000Berliner noted the network overwhelmingly employed registered Democrats, noting not a single registered Republican was present at NPR's Washington headquarters.
00:33:13.000The 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.
00:33:22.000There's a story, and we'll get into it in a second, about a guy named Dexter Reed.
00:33:27.000This is a guy who, uh, reportedly opened fire on police, striking a police officer, shooting 11 times, and the police responded, killing him.
00:33:35.000I say reportedly because it's reported in the news.
00:33:37.000There's video of the shots and the cops running and screaming, and then, you know, them yelling shots fired and stuff like that.
00:33:52.000So 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.
00:34:01.000And I'm like, why not just show a picture of him wearing a t-shirt?
00:34:08.000So their goal is to effectively create another George Floyd scenario.
00:34:12.000The 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?
00:35:01.000No, what happens is Congress authorizes funding for some secondary organization who then transfers funding to NPR and that's how it operates.
00:35:09.000So, 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.
00:35:20.000But this is just a bigger component of what we already knew.
00:35:22.000I mean, this country is... I don't see...
00:35:26.000How based on things like this, this country ever comes back from oblivion.
00:35:59.000I 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.
00:36:11.000You can't come here and stop people from doing that.
00:36:14.000You 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.
00:36:26.000And we have seen it with Donald Trump on many occasions.
00:36:32.000I 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?
00:36:41.000It was convenient to say at the time that one of his advisors married a Russian spy.
00:36:46.000That 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.
00:37:01.000So, you know, it's another type of dictatorship on the other side.
00:37:05.000You know, we should respect, agree at certain extent that coup lie, you know, people should be free to talk and even say lie.
00:37:13.000Let'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.
00:37:21.000Were you able to sue the... who was it that said you were a Russian spy?
00:37:29.000crazy guy that actually came in a label lawsuit recently with another person involved in the Russia hoax.
00:37:36.000And he won, actually, and he was banned by ever publishing anything ever again.
00:37:41.000I'm not making his name not to make him famous here, because it's really like a fringe wannabe journalist.
00:37:47.000But, you know, many other outlets picked up from this, including, you know, the Observer and something, you know, just major outlets.
00:37:56.000And 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.
00:38:05.000It was never about me, it was just about the Donald Trump campaign that was allegedly colluding with Russians.
00:38:10.000So I understand the feeling of Donald Trump calling out those liars.
00:38:15.000I 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?
00:38:25.000But I think this is so normalized to lie against a political opponent or political target that we should definitely be able to correct it.
00:38:34.000You know, we should shift back to some sort of accountability when you lie recklessly.
00:38:40.000And Donald Trump has been the target of all that.
00:38:43.000And 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.
00:39:01.000There's like this saying, look for forgiveness rather than for, what is it?
00:39:09.000Ask for forgiveness later rather than ask for permission first.
00:39:11.000News 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.
00:39:21.000News 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.
00:39:29.000When they run an article with ads on it, views are views.
00:39:33.000So 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.
00:39:45.000I mean, slander, libel, those are legitimate things.
00:39:47.000This 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.
00:40:54.000Think about Jane Carroll, like based on baseless allegation.
00:40:57.000again and media covering it in a certain way and here we go the narrative is
00:41:01.000built upon like everybody's trying one thing to avoid Donald Trump to win the
00:41:05.000election again and that's that's a fact or delegitimize him once he's in power
00:41:09.000and everybody can see that even liberals you know have you ever seen so many
00:41:14.000forces against one man and why? Not in American politics, not like this.
00:41:19.000I 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.
00:41:30.000You know, I mean, it's anybody's guess.
00:41:31.000Once 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.
00:41:40.000It's called National Public Radio, but it's privately funded.
00:41:43.000Yeah, 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.
00:41:53.000And then when the summer of George Floyd happened, the top-down edict was, we have to get at this systemic racism problem.
00:42:00.000I mean, and then from there, it was just framed that way moving forward, and then everybody else had to fall in line.
00:42:06.000And I imagine that's pretty much what happens in most of these corporate press newsrooms.
00:42:10.000It 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.
00:42:19.000Maybe 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.
00:42:28.000Yeah, like, if I call my company the Federal Armory- Express!
00:42:36.000Yeah, Federal Express, they had to change it to FedEx, because Federal, it wasn't Federal.
00:42:39.000And, 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.
00:42:47.000You can't, like, call your private companies.
00:42:49.000There's certain things, like, or if I'm, like, Yeah, that's a good point actually.
00:43:05.000Who owns the company? It's owned by National Public Radio, Inc.
00:43:08.000And who owns that? And where the stock all comes from?
00:43:11.000Because 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.
00:43:21.000Where did you hear that they changed their name from Federal Express because they were forced to?
00:43:26.000Oh, I just remember them changing it to FedEx.
00:43:31.000They just branded, they created a brand name.
00:43:32.000They called it the Federal Reserve, and it wasn't even a federal organization.
00:43:37.000So 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.
00:44:06.000Congress funds some, like, program, which then provides the funding to NPR.
00:44:11.000So 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.
00:44:20.000Another question is, how much of their money comes from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting?
00:44:25.000And then how much does Congress give to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting?
00:44:29.000Dude, 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.
00:44:59.000This is the huge implications for self-defense.
00:45:03.000This guy, Nicolay Miu, was, I watched a video.
00:45:07.000He'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.
00:45:21.000So 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.
00:45:33.000The kids all start surrounding him, screaming at him, teenagers yelling.
00:45:37.000One dude yells for the culture several times.
00:45:40.000Someone- some woman comes up and shoves him.
00:45:42.000He then grabs a folding knife that he was using for tubing.
00:45:45.000Someone then shoves him to the- to the floor- to the ground.
00:45:51.000Then 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.
00:46:02.000And that was basically the killing blow.
00:46:04.000He then has continued to be attacked and slashes a few others.
00:46:07.000They 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.
00:46:14.000His mouth is shut, he's calm, he's not threatening anybody.
00:46:16.000They surround him, screaming at him, and then attack him several times, and now he's been found guilty.
00:46:23.000Um, so I think Carter, Carter Banks, was he talking about this?
00:46:27.000He said that- About the Apple Valley guy?
00:46:40.000So which was like intent to withhold evidence or something.
00:46:44.000But the thing is, you can drown in a foot of water.
00:46:47.000If he fell and hit his head, he could have died.
00:46:49.000I don't care if he was on grass or otherwise.
00:46:51.000You 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.
00:46:57.000And 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.
00:47:05.000They 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?
00:47:13.000You know, like you have to use what you have to just save yourself.
00:47:19.000The entire point is to save your life.
00:47:22.000Are you using a proportionate force to do that or means on everything else?
00:47:27.000But here, it's always the same point to me.
00:47:31.000Right, there are pending accusations towards these guys.
00:47:34.000Usually 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.
00:47:42.000But 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.
00:47:53.000But yeah, it appears they made that up.
00:47:56.000I mean, I don't see what the guy apparently was looking for a phone that he dropped in the river.
00:48:01.000And and so they they end up starting a fight with him.
00:51:31.000Why 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.
00:51:42.000If on the other side you happen to have a person of color or anything else, a minority group.
00:51:50.000This is the other side of indoctrination.
00:51:54.000This 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?
00:52:11.000Yeah, because people are so afraid of, or have been, of the cops and police violence that it swung in the other direction.
00:52:19.000They 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?
00:54:35.000So, in Illinois, I can't- again, this is Wisconsin.
00:54:38.000If 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.
00:54:45.000Granted, you're not allowed to defend yourself with any kind of weapon or anything in Illinois.
00:54:49.000They'll lock you up for having a rubber switch.
00:54:53.000Or actually, I think it's the only one you're allowed to have.
00:54:55.000So, off of that comment that we got, Dante Carlson was the witness that was there.
00:55:01.000He said, he initially told police that he saw Mew hit another woman, but then he changed his story before trial.
00:55:07.000So that was an early, yeah, that's what he said initially.
00:55:10.000It's on video, you see the woman shove him.
00:55:12.000The 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.
00:55:19.000So 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!
00:55:30.000The Mew just has the knife in his hand like this, and he goes like that.
00:55:34.000He didn't lunge at anybody, and then, as they're all screaming and surrounding him, he does start slashing or whatever.
00:55:40.000So you're saying Mew told the police he punched the girl?
00:55:43.000No, no, no, there was somebody else that was there.
00:55:45.000They initially told the police, oh, I saw him hit a girl.
00:55:48.000And then he changed his story before trial.
00:55:50.000Oh, and they said he didn't see him hit a girl.
00:55:55.000And 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.
00:56:06.000And they're, you know, but despite the fact that their testimonies don't seem to be consistent, the conviction went the other way, so.
00:58:23.000Yeah, 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.
00:58:32.000Yeah, they always make it look like it's the police going around attacking Afro-Americans, right?
00:58:39.000It'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.
00:58:47.000To me, the police should be paid so much more.
00:58:49.000When 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.
00:59:49.000But 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.
00:59:56.000Well, dude, this guy is accused of shooting at cops 11 times, striking one of them, and then they returned fire.
01:00:02.000And this is the photo you choose to use?
01:00:04.000Yeah, even Jeffrey Hammer has a beautiful college picture at his graduation, you know?
01:00:09.000Yeah, they can post that one of them from now on.
01:00:12.000So a lot of people are saying this is them trying to manufacture another George Floyd just in time for the election.
01:00:17.000And did you see the video of his mother?
01:01:11.000But 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.
01:01:29.000Yeah, the body camera footage shows the cops running the vehicle, you hear gunshots go off and the cops run, screaming, shots fired, shots fired.
01:01:35.000I'm being very specific about what the video shows.
01:01:37.000Oversight then said he fired on them first.
01:02:05.000And just like with Trump, there's no pivot.
01:02:06.000They'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.
01:02:13.000And perhaps this is another instance of that.
01:02:14.000They're just like, OK, well, let's do George Floyd 2.0.
01:03:15.000And then what ends up happening is a cop can't see what's going on.
01:03:17.000You roll your window up and now they're like, okay, that's a threat.
01:03:19.000You won't get out of your vehicle and this is what you get.
01:03:24.000Man, I'm not sure what, I'm not, what are you thinking?
01:03:26.000My 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.
01:03:33.000I love to make great things and it's like hard to watch this sometimes.
01:03:37.000It's important to acknowledge, but God, you know, healing, I want to heal the brain too.
01:03:42.000Were you going to say something about it?
01:03:43.000It sounds like you're just overwhelmed by both the fictional representations of crime and the real-life crime we're handling here right now.
01:04:04.000I 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.
01:04:16.000This is literally what's happening right now.
01:04:20.000You 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.
01:04:24.000And 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.
01:04:33.000And then the jurors are like, ugh, I don't care about this guy, I just want to go home.
01:04:46.000The era of 12 angry men isn't really what we're living in now.
01:04:50.000I mean, there's not really going to be that one lone voice.
01:04:52.000I 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.
01:05:06.000And those jurors are losing work days the longer they stay there.
01:05:09.000I don't know if they're not getting paid.
01:05:36.000And 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.
01:05:44.000If 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.
01:05:51.000And then I called and said, listen, I have an exemption, because actually I can't.
01:05:56.000I can't be there in my current status, so they let me go, but it was pretty odd, you know.
01:06:02.000I got a jury duty call before my green card.
01:06:06.000I guess it's how they vote, too, with ballots.
01:06:09.000I don't know how many legal votes here.
01:06:11.000I've never been illegal, but, you know, how things operate, it looks like they don't do their due diligence well enough.
01:06:18.000The 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.
01:06:26.000They're innocent and that's the way the legal system works and it's got to continue to stay like that.
01:06:30.000I think culturally people think very differently in terms of that now.
01:06:33.000It's not really just like innocent until proven guilty.
01:06:36.000I think that the guilt just sort of gets showered on people, especially if they're a demonized person or a public demonized person.
01:06:42.000And that makes it even more complicated for fair application of the law.
01:06:46.000It's funny, the Founding Fathers are like, innocent until proven guilty, and the people are just like, we don't care.
01:06:54.000But 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.
01:07:03.000Like, that's a very base human impulse to just, you know, come with people like Frankenstein with the fire torches.
01:08:22.000I 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.
01:08:38.000I don't even know if it's necessarily the leftists.
01:08:40.000I 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.
01:08:45.000They don't have any kind of core political ideology that guides them.
01:08:49.000They just turn on the corporate press and get poisoned by it.
01:08:54.000And 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.
01:09:00.000I'll get to sit in my house and retire.
01:09:02.000Yeah, get your dopamine drip from your phone.
01:09:03.000You 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.
01:10:36.000No, 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.
01:10:56.000Let's say, it's like liberals talk about inclusion and non-discrimination, but actually they are doing exactly the opposite.
01:11:04.000They 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.
01:11:23.000I'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.
01:11:30.000Basically 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.
01:12:36.000And 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.
01:12:48.000Just remember the quality of life of this time.
01:12:52.000I see that technique in the liberals today in America.
01:12:55.000They master it so well, like they actually are masters in projection and they use nice words to incite people to do bad things.
01:13:11.000I mean, there's a level of intolerance that is unprecedented in any culture I've seen in the world.
01:13:15.000are the one that promotes inclusion, tolerance, actually they scream like psychopaths if you
01:13:20.000don't agree with them. I mean there's a level of intolerance that is unprecedented in any
01:13:24.000culture I've seen in the world. I mean these people are unhinged.
01:13:27.000Yeah, toxically compassionate sometimes with especially with letting people across the
01:13:32.000border illegally en masse in these That's like, yes, inclusion, inclusion, but if you include poison in your veins, you're gonna die.
01:13:39.000So you can't include everything around you.
01:13:41.000If 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.
01:13:48.000So 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.
01:14:31.000And 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.
01:14:36.000Because I knew kids in, like, grade school, high school, who watched South Park.
01:14:41.000Yeah, 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.
01:14:49.000Because when I was a kid, we couldn't watch Beavis and Budhead.
01:14:53.000There were parental controls in the cable box, and you needed a four-digit code to unlock certain channels.
01:14:58.000And 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
01:15:11.000legal restrictions for minors on the for anything, period. So it's like, there's a story going
01:15:15.000around where high school kids are AI generating porn of their classmates. So these are
01:15:19.000children. And they're just like, what do we do about it? It's like, what do you do about kids going to
01:15:48.000It's like, okay, well, the left is indoctrinating your kids, then have a nice day.
01:15:51.000You refuse, like, the right refuses to use any kind of authority.
01:15:55.000Like, 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.
01:16:16.000I'm pretty sure that's why he didn't call them out right away.
01:16:18.000He didn't want to seem like a fascist totem.
01:16:20.000But 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
01:16:37.000like no no you can't say fuck on the internet no you can't say that and that kind of
01:16:42.000thing and then like banning people to say that words they don't like and crap like that or
01:16:46.000imagery they don't like you can't wear red shirts on tuesday no you're bad like you don't want to give
01:16:51.000any government that kind of authority but then the other option is anarcho-tyranny do you want a
01:16:55.000wide open internet of people showing four-year-olds pornography no no people don't want that
01:16:59.000either but the right is unwilling to legislate this stuff they're they're like this this has
01:17:04.000been consistently the theme with the right They will not wield power.
01:17:09.000They win seats in Congress and then go, okay, now we'll do nothing.
01:17:13.000And they all high-five as the Democrats encroach further and further.
01:17:15.000I'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.
01:17:24.000Well, we have to get rid from the dictatorship of the politically correct on the right as well.
01:17:30.000Like 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.
01:17:41.000No, just implement the policies and the platform you voted for and go for it.
01:17:47.000I want to see more of that in politics on the right side because I agree with Tim.
01:17:50.000I mean, that things shouldn't be allowed.
01:18:51.000This is where that Civil War movie needed.
01:18:54.000It needed, like, a scene where the journalists come across a drag show for kids outside of, like, some town.
01:19:01.000And 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.
01:19:11.000And it should have been a drag show for kids that someone runs in.
01:19:15.000The Civil War narrative film needs to actually address modern politics to make its point.
01:19:25.000And I guess the idea is like in war films, people don't internalize it.
01:19:30.000They say, wow, that's happening over there.
01:19:33.000And they don't realize that if it were to happen here, what it would look like.
01:19:36.000So I can respect that film in that respect, but there needs to be a film where it just like outright shows...
01:19:41.000What the left does, and then how the right responds, and then take it to, like, take it up a notch.
01:19:48.000You 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.
01:21:01.000I mean, I'm such a boomer in terms of technology.
01:21:04.000I 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.
01:22:18.000I'm pretty sure my brother has, though.
01:22:20.000The 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.
01:22:29.000But they will actually, you'll like, I think that's insane.
01:22:33.000You're 16, you're walking down the street in Chicago at 10.30 and the cop will pull over, but get in.
01:22:48.000Like, 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.
01:22:59.000Because I don't know if, like, how many cities are like this.
01:23:02.000But 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.
01:23:13.000And 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.
01:24:40.000When 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.
01:25:19.000Someone 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.
01:25:26.000When I first started, I was, like, alone in a corner desk.
01:25:30.000Remember when we had Malice and Jones on?
01:25:30.000No, no, no, that wasn't the first one.
01:25:54.000We 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.
01:26:17.000But 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.
01:26:27.000You could make public schools ban phones.
01:26:30.000Then we'd lose a lot of fight footage that's floating around out there.
01:26:33.000But 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.
01:26:45.000It's not even that, the left has already said it's our children.
01:27:10.000Um, 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.
01:27:33.000And this is where like the guy dies and comes back and then tries to bang his daughter.
01:27:36.000Yeah, 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.
01:28:17.000So 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.
01:28:24.000Because kids can be pretty dickish in school.
01:28:26.000I've had kids come up and do some pretty cruel shit to me.
01:28:29.000And if a kid just shows someone some horrid shit, do you blame their parent?
01:28:41.000You know, I mean, that's what they're doing.
01:28:42.000They got these AI-generated... I mean, they could literally just, like, show you what seems to be you without clothes on.
01:28:48.000I mean, that's how crazy AI is, and how quickly it's erupted.
01:28:52.000I 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.
01:28:59.000Do 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?
01:29:10.000I 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?
01:29:45.000My kids are really young, you know, and they listen as good as they can.
01:29:48.000They're, you know, three and a half and two.
01:29:50.000But I've also talked to parents that have done the homeschooling thing, and they often report that my kids don't listen to me.
01:29:57.000And they don't listen in school either.
01:29:59.000Right, 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.
01:30:07.000My kid will not listen to me, so he had to send his kid to a professional teacher.
01:30:12.000I 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.
01:30:47.000You're telling me one more thing to do.
01:30:48.000This guy now is telling me something new and he's fresh.
01:30:51.000So I've got some added intensity to this being told.
01:30:55.000So 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.
01:31:17.000The 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.
01:31:26.000But then they go to you know daycare or like a preschool and they're wild.
01:31:31.000They act crazy and they have problems at school.
01:31:34.000But 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.
01:31:45.000But when they're with somebody that's not their parents, they already know how to behave.
01:31:49.000I talk to a lot of people that are parents, and I'm really trying to sort this out for myself.
01:31:52.000And I think it's really, really complicated.
01:31:54.000It's more complicated than just homeschool your kids, is what I'm getting at.
01:31:57.000Yeah, but I mean, like, even back in the day, some dude would get a homestead in the middle of nowhere with his family.
01:32:02.000He'd have, like, four or five kids and a wife, and they- the kids would farm and the kids would work.
01:32:15.000Because we're in the 21st century, children have just stopped acting like children have for hundreds of thousands of years.
01:32:22.000I don't think that's necessarily a crazy thing to posit.
01:32:25.000Because 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.
01:32:32.000But that's why you don't, you homeschool your kids.
01:32:34.000I know, but you don't give your kid phones.
01:32:43.000Okay, so you're a 16-year-old in school, you have your phone, like... No, you're not in school, you're homeschooled!
01:32:48.000But, I mean, like, the problem with the phone technology still exists.
01:32:52.000Yeah, 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?
01:33:02.000I 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!
01:33:08.000And 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.
01:33:16.000You can accept that moral degeneracy is here to stay.
01:33:18.000That 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.
01:33:40.000This is why many pro-lifers are mad at Trump right now, because he's not arguing.
01:33:44.000So 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.
01:34:16.000Talking 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.
01:35:23.000But you are not the person who has been the whole time teaching them how to live.
01:35:26.000You'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.
01:35:33.000And that's what we've been for a hundred years.
01:35:35.000My parents did a pretty cool thing where they unified.
01:35:38.000I was never able to get one of them to do something the other one wouldn't allow.
01:35:41.000They were like behind my back, a solid unit.
01:35:44.000And so I kind of, my dad would work for two days at a time.
01:35:50.000Then he'd come back on day three and he'd be with us for a day.
01:35:52.000And so I didn't see him a lot, but because they were so unified, I felt like he was still present.
01:35:57.000And 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.
01:36:02.000So 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.
01:36:08.000And the way it used to be was that kids lived basically the same lives as their grandparents.
01:36:13.000Granddad 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.
01:36:19.000He'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.
01:36:50.000And 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.
01:36:58.000Take them from their parents and put them in the coal mines.
01:37:00.000And then all of a sudden the kids are not learning from their parents anymore.
01:37:04.000We totally separate family, and then it's no surprise, the level of degeneracy that we have now.
01:37:09.000It'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.
01:37:19.000Because we cut kids off from their parents.
01:37:21.000And 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.
01:37:32.000And it's all about leading by example, right?
01:37:35.000When you take over, that's what happens.
01:37:39.000I 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.
01:37:47.000But I can see this shifting and getting closer and closer to what we see here now.
01:37:57.000She seemed like she was actually like a nationalist.
01:37:59.000Yeah, she's actually a big, big right-wing patriot.
01:38:04.000She used to emulate Donald Trump up to the election, but now she's kind of disappointing me for her policies toward immigration.
01:38:13.000Yes, we are experiencing illegal immigration flaws unprecedented as before.
01:38:20.000Italy is just kind of bending to European Union socialist dictatorship when it comes to certain policies.
01:38:29.000So she has been voted on a very incredible platform.
01:38:33.000I was one of the people that voted for her.
01:38:35.000But I think some of her promises are not truly met at the moment, but definitely yes.
01:38:42.000Even the most liberal of Italians is a conservative here, so it's a kind of difference looking into politics.

01:39:08.000The first comment I'm gonna read is from a member.
01:39:10.000He said, Tim raised a cat, sorta like a kid.
01:41:01.000Shane 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.
01:41:06.000I 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.
01:41:13.000But as someone who's done conflict reporting, there was a lot that I really liked about it.
01:41:17.000There 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.
01:41:26.000Uh, 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.
01:41:36.000Because 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.
01:41:45.000There'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.
01:41:56.000And they enjoy doing it and they're all partying and drinking and they think they're special.
01:42:01.000So there's like numerous instances where in the movie they act like they're not there as people during a shootout.
01:42:08.000And there are some scenes where it like, you know, bites them in the ass and so that's good.
01:42:13.000Uh, that they show that I think it's important people realize this.
01:42:15.000The 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.
01:42:28.000And they're all taking pictures, just slowly walking backwards.
01:42:32.000And the truck is slowly moving forward going, You must disperse!
01:43:19.000There'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.
01:43:27.000And she's like, no, I'm not gonna, she's like, put it on!
01:43:29.000And 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?
01:43:39.000Because like, an insurance company is gonna say, wear a vest.
01:43:43.000A 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.
01:43:51.000And 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.
01:43:57.000There 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.
01:44:06.000And then another journalist went and she wore hijab and she walked around with no problems for years, filming and taking photos.
01:44:12.000And like the story... And hostile environment courses will teach you this.
01:44:49.000You think it was more of a bulletproof vest than a target?
01:44:52.000So, if you're driving through conflict territory, you're probably better off marking your vehicle press.
01:44:58.000Or actually, what a lot of the journalists do because they're scumbags, they put red crosses on it.
01:45:02.000Far-left activists do this all the time, and this is why these symbols become meaningless.
01:45:06.000And that's why, often, it's like, don't do anything.
01:45:09.000Because, 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!
01:46:01.000Yeah, 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.
01:46:10.000The opening of the movie is Nick Offerman, and it's him practicing his lines going, we're on the verge of the greatest victory.
01:46:18.000Some say the greatest victory in military history.
01:46:21.000And it's like, yeah, OK, like there's one president that says some said it was the greatest.
01:46:26.000That's like, literally riding a trumpline.
01:46:29.000And then the, uh, what is it, like, that Jesse Plemons scene from the trailer where he's like, what kind of American are you?
01:47:52.000And 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.
01:48:04.000A year or a few years from now, there is an Antifa massacre, which escalates tensions.
01:48:10.000Donald Trump ends up winning a third term, or he wins second term.
01:48:16.000And it is fair to say it's not Trump in the sense of the film.
01:48:19.000Yeah, because it's 20 years in the future.
01:48:20.000The film has to be 20 years in the future.
01:48:22.000Because, she says, you got your start because when you were in college, you got a picture of the Antifa massacre.
01:48:28.000So, 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.
01:48:48.000So it's just about 20 years in the future.
01:48:50.000So which means it probably would not be Trump, but it would be next Trump or something.
01:48:56.000It was someone who's acting like Trump.
01:49:09.000They don't say if Antifa killed or was killed, they just call it the Antifa massacre.
01:49:13.000And then the assumption is based on the narrative.
01:49:17.000A conflict happens, the president uses airstrikes to stop the conflict,
01:49:21.000which results in various factions forming and, you know.
01:49:25.000Or 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.
01:49:35.000Well, they know that Trump created the movement that is much bigger than him, and it will survive him.
01:49:39.000That's why they targeted MAGA people, too, you know?
01:49:42.000With 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.
01:49:55.000And 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.
01:51:31.000That's what Thomas Massey built, this giant contraption that moves with solar power throughout the day and its chickens graze in new areas.
01:52:24.000But 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.
01:52:38.000The military capabilities in this area are insane.
01:53:38.000The 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.
01:53:48.000The idea being that if all of these criminal aliens come in, California and Texas are both going to be blue.
01:53:52.000And then with 51% of the population, they will install a super majority of Democrats in the state.
01:53:59.000And the president even refers to the subjugated people of Texas in the film.
01:54:04.000So it's possible that Texas is split in half.
01:54:59.000So, I don't know much about it other than that someone said that the audience ended up siding with David Hogg.
01:55:03.000Well, 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.
01:55:12.000I 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.
01:56:27.000Was it that pedantic or did it actually, was he making great points?
01:56:30.000I, I don't want to speak out of turn or anything.
01:56:32.000I 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.
01:56:40.000But no, I mean, the few excerpts that I saw basically just relied on the same structure.
01:56:45.000Data, graphs that perhaps the audience couldn't see, and Spike even acknowledged that.
01:56:49.000He was just like, I know you guys can't see this.
01:56:51.000And then David Hogg would just resort to, it's the guns.
01:57:33.000See, 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.
01:57:45.000I 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.
01:58:02.000I just feel like, David, is it because of guns that a guy pushed another guy in front of a train in New York?
01:58:08.000Is it because of guns that a guy punched a woman in the face in New York?
01:58:26.000It'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.
01:58:37.000Like, I don't think we're gonna ban peanuts anytime soon.
01:58:40.000And 3D-printed guns, if people can craft them in their homes.
01:58:43.000Like, trying to ban the information is insane.
01:58:47.000He may have, in the excerpts that I didn't see.
01:58:49.000If 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.
01:58:55.000It doesn't matter if you're right or wrong.
01:59:07.000And well beyond the capabilities of Liberator, which was 10 plus years ago.
01:59:12.000The 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.
02:00:31.000Help me get to the producer if you know people that work for the company.
02:00:34.000I want to make that show the best show on earth.
02:00:35.000I 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.
02:00:44.000And he hangs out with the crew, that'd be so badass.
