Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Elon Musk Says X Hit By MASSIVE Cyberattack From Ukraine, Rumble Hit Too w-Ben Davidson| Timcast IRL

00:00:00.000 So.

00:00:28.000 X was under a massive cyber attack today, so confirms Elon Musk.

00:00:32.000 And that was a speculation because it was down.

00:00:35.000 It was down, then it would come back a little bit, then it would go down.

00:00:37.000 Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovsky has also confirmed Rumble was hit by a DDoS attack as well.

00:00:44.000 And Elon said that the IP addresses point to Ukraine.

00:00:48.000 Now, anybody who knows anything knows that doesn't mean Ukraine did it.

00:00:52.000 And it doesn't mean Elon Musk was accusing Ukraine of doing it.

00:00:55.000 Though he did say it appears the IP addresses are coming from Ukraine.

00:00:58.000 It could be a botnet of capture.

00:01:00.000 A botnet is basically you got thousands of computers and they're all infected and they all operate in unison like puppets.

00:01:06.000 It could be that Ukrainians were doing it.

00:01:08.000 I doubt it. 1.00

00:01:09.000 That's stupid. 1.00

00:01:10.000 But probably either a misdirect or an obfuscation. 1.00

00:01:14.000 But it appears that somebody was attacking X and robot.

00:01:17.000 Now you may have noticed.

00:01:19.000 We were about a, I don't know, half minute late getting this show started.

00:01:23.000 Because we were also having weird YouTube issues.

00:01:26.000 And, I don't know, Occam's razor, sometimes these issues happen.

00:01:30.000 But on a day where Rumble and X both got hit by massive cyber attacks, it is not unheard of.

00:01:38.000 YouTube would be hit by something similar.

00:01:40.000 I don't know for sure.

00:01:41.000 We did eventually figure out how to fix the air, whatever it may have been.

00:01:46.000 But let me just say...

00:01:48.000 There have been periods of massive cyber attacks, and it's very interesting.

00:01:51.000 So we're going to talk about that.

00:01:51.000 That's the big news.

00:01:52.000 We've got another plane crash.

00:01:55.000 Indeed, another plane crash.

00:01:56.000 We've got Delaware bleeding companies.

00:02:00.000 Major companies are fleeing because, well, after they stole the money from Elon Musk, these big corporations don't want to be there.

00:02:08.000 So Dropbox officially filed to leave the state.

00:02:11.000 Massive fail on their part.

00:02:12.000 Walmart apparently was headquartered in Delaware, now planning on leaving the state as well.

00:02:17.000 This is a massive exodus due to their failing policies.

00:02:21.000 Then we've got some stories about Doge.

00:02:23.000 Apparently Trump heard Jesse Waters talking about these firings going too far and told Elon to slow down a little bit, but we'll talk all about what's going on there.

00:02:33.000 And a lot more to talk about.

00:02:35.000 Bernie Sanders had a rally.

00:02:37.000 Where trans singer of the band Against Me, formerly of Against Me, Laura Jane Grace, sang a very, I guess you would call it offensive song about God and genitals and things like that, sparking a lot of controversy, which was likely the intended consequence, so that shows like this would discuss it.

00:02:54.000 But we'll talk all about that, my friends.

00:02:56.000 Before we get started, of course, we've got a great sponsor.

00:03:00.000 It is Home Title Lock.

00:03:38.000 Imagine that, you're at home one day and the cops jump and say you don't actually live there.

00:03:41.000 Some guy's got a deed with their name on it.

00:03:43.000 So let me ask you, when was the last time you checked on your home title?

00:03:46.000 If you're like me, the answer is, never!

00:03:48.000 Well, to be fair, after the first time we did, because we've been sponsored, decided to Home Title Lock for sponsoring the show, but I was like, good point.

00:04:57.000 And if you jump over and scroll down, you can find Misty Mountains and Focus with Mr. Bocus.

00:05:02.000 As always, we're going to have the Green Room show, which was actually really interesting.

00:05:06.000 We'll get into some of these topics, too, on the show about the apocalypse, the polar shift, and all of those crazy goings-ons.

00:05:12.000 But we're going to have an uncensored call-in show coming up.

00:05:15.000 At 10 p.m., you don't want to miss.

00:05:17.000 So join Rumble Premium.

00:05:19.000 The Uncensored call-in show will be at rumble.com slash TimCast IRL. You can follow me on X and Instagram at TimCast.

00:05:25.000 Smash the like button.

00:05:26.000 Share the show.

00:05:27.000 Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more is Ben Davidson.

00:05:31.000 Thanks for having me on.

00:05:32.000 It was a great time last time.

00:05:34.000 Indeed.

00:05:35.000 I have to say, the new studio is even more impressive.

00:05:38.000 Thank you very much.

00:05:39.000 Well, who are you?

00:05:40.000 What do you do?

00:05:40.000 My name is Ben Davidson, founder of Space Weather News, also founder of Observer Ranch.

00:05:47.000 Short version of the story is every day on YouTube put out a video about what the sun is doing, how that's affecting Earth's weather, earthquakes, even our health, and how Earth is changing in subtle ways.

00:05:58.000 As you mentioned earlier, the magnetic poles have begun to shift, and that's going to be a really big thing in our lives.

00:06:04.000 Is the shift that is starting?

00:06:07.000 Is that viewed as confirmed by the mainstream scientific bodies?

00:06:11.000 It depends on whether or not there's a camera in front of them or not.

00:06:15.000 That's with a lot of issues, in fact.

00:06:18.000 So, okay, what we do have these stories about plane crashes, and we were talking about that.

00:06:22.000 So we'll get into that in a little bit.

00:06:23.000 One of the ideas is...

00:06:25.000 Are these planes crashing due to instrument failure?

00:06:27.000 Or is it DEI? What's really going on?

00:06:29.000 So, should be fun.

00:06:30.000 Thanks for hanging out.

00:06:31.000 Shane is here.

00:06:32.000 What's up?

00:06:32.000 It's good to have you back, Ben.

00:06:33.000 It was awesome last time.

00:06:34.000 I am the host of Inverted World Live.

00:06:36.000 We go live every Sunday at 6 o'clock.

00:06:38.000 Last night, we had the investigator BX on.

00:06:41.000 She looks into the rise of satanic death cults, and they're crazy.

00:06:45.000 So you can check that out.

00:06:46.000 We also had someone call in talking about how they were a part of entrapment in Wisconsin with the Fednapping case with Governor Whitmer.

00:06:57.000 It was a crazy story.

00:06:59.000 So you can check that out on YouTube and Rumble at Tales from the Inverted World.

00:07:02.000 What's up, Phil?

00:07:03.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains.

00:07:06.000 I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.

00:07:08.000 Let's go.

00:07:09.000 Here it is from Newsweek.com.

00:07:11.000 Elon Musk points finger at Ukraine for cyber attack on acts that caused major outages.

00:07:17.000 Elon Musk has pointed the finger at Ukraine.

00:07:20.000 Tens of thousands of views reported at least three major outages on the website and app.

00:07:24.000 And it was more than that.

00:07:25.000 I mean, it was down for everybody.

00:07:26.000 Pro-Palestinian hacker group Darkstorm team claimed responsibility for a DDoS attack on the platform, according to a public Telegram post.

00:07:34.000 The group is known for primarily targeting countries and entities that support Israel's attack on Gaza following Hamas' surprise attack on October 7th, 2023. However, Musk suggested that a large coordinated group and or a country is involved in the massive hack in a series of posts on X. We get attacked every day, but this was done with a lot of resources.

00:07:52.000 I personally don't believe Darkstorm team is behind this.

00:07:57.000 Or if it is, we would call these privateer groups for corporations or government.

00:08:03.000 But taking down X is no simple feat that a small ragtag band of hackers could actually pull off.

00:08:11.000 That's why when Elon says it takes a lot of resource and was likely a country, he's probably correct.

00:08:17.000 Now, apparently...

00:08:18.000 So we have a bunch of updates here.

00:08:20.000 CyberExpert says it's unlikely a state actor was behind the attack.

00:08:24.000 CyberOperationsExpert said it doesn't make a lot of sense that a state actor would be behind the attack on X today after Elon claimed that a country was to blame.

00:08:31.000 Musk posted on X that a large coordinated group and or country is involved in the massive hack and that the IP address from the hack originated in the Ukraine area.

00:08:42.000 Nicholas Rees, an adjunct instructor at the Center for Global Affairs in New York University's School of Professional Studies, I completely disagree.

00:09:10.000 Shutting down X on the surface from...

00:09:14.000 Look, I gotta tell you.

00:09:15.000 I wake up every day, I open X. I woke up, it didn't work.

00:09:19.000 I come to the office, I come to the studio, I sit down, I pull up the news, X did not work.

00:09:25.000 I use X to follow news accounts and news aggregators, activists and otherwise, who are sharing news stories.

00:09:32.000 That was not available to me this morning.

00:09:35.000 That is the same for every single news producer who utilizes X. So, if you want a reason why a major state actor would Shut down X. It's because they were doing something they didn't want to get shared at the time.

00:09:50.000 Now the big news of the day is that X went down instead of, I don't know, insert country, did certain thing.

00:09:56.000 But Rumble, we have this post from Chris Pavlovsky who says, confirming that the Rumble engineering team is also fighting a large DDoS attack that has intermittently affected our services today.

00:10:07.000 Yeah, I think it doesn't need to be a state actor.

00:10:11.000 But it's certainly a sophisticated group.

00:10:13.000 It's more powerful than just some ragtag bunch.

00:10:16.000 And I think it has a lot to do with Doge, Tesla X. Attacking Elon is not about, let me put it this way.

00:10:25.000 If you're going after your enemy, a lot of people who live in movie reality think that everything's got to be a nuclear strike.

00:10:32.000 When we talk about World War III and we say Vladimir Putin would, if pushed to it, use nuclear weapons.

00:10:38.000 In their mind, they're imagining quite literally 17 ICBMs, MIRVs, launching in the air and just bombing the entire United States.

00:10:45.000 The most extreme.

00:10:46.000 No.

00:10:47.000 We're talking about nuclear artillery, low-yield bombs, gravity bombs, a one-megaton gravity bomb, things that are going to give them a decisive victory in a key area.

00:10:57.000 So for these attacks on Elon, you want a death.

00:11:01.000 I would say what they are trying to accomplish, I'd imagine, is death by a thousand cuts.

00:11:05.000 And in this instance, they shut down a large portion of the news media in the United States.

00:11:10.000 Not all of it, obviously, but at least on social media.

00:11:12.000 And it's damaging to Axis advertisers, to Elon Musk himself.

00:11:16.000 And if they do this 1,000 times across the board to all of his companies, they can cause him serious problems.

00:11:22.000 Do you think that it's worth considering what else has been happening in Elon Musk's life?

00:11:31.000 Wasn't there a coordinated thing where a bunch of Tesla dealerships got set on fire, and a bunch of death threats got sent to him, and now this?

00:11:42.000 The inclusion of Ukraine, I agree with you, like, no small ragtag team could have done this.

00:11:47.000 I can think of a couple of countries who might want to.

00:11:50.000 But also, there's that other group, that other classification of...

00:11:58.000 Groups of people who like to keep themselves secret.

00:12:02.000 And most of them are pretty powerful and have influence over the world.

00:12:05.000 They got all kind of names.

00:12:07.000 They, them.

00:12:09.000 This could be...

00:12:11.000 Right.

00:12:12.000 You certainly got whatever Epstein was doing.

00:12:14.000 But I don't think that relates here.

00:12:16.000 But it's a good example of whatever.

00:12:17.000 Not necessarily Epstein, but I mean...

00:12:20.000 We'll just...

00:12:22.000 Reptiles?

00:12:23.000 Clones?

00:12:24.000 No.

00:12:24.000 There are groups we know of, like Epstein and his cohorts and his clients.

00:12:27.000 I'm not saying it's related to this.

00:12:29.000 I'm saying we know that those groups exist.

00:12:31.000 This could be like the CEO of five big companies being like, we don't like Tesla because they're causing a shakeup in the market for us.

00:12:40.000 Probably not.

00:12:40.000 I think it largely has to do with Doge.

00:12:43.000 And there are probably powerful NGOs and political actors who have lots of resources who are like...

00:12:49.000 Let's send a shot across the bow at Elon Musk. 0.92

00:12:51.000 The people that are most likely irritated with Elon Musk now are most likely in some way associated with either the money that was being distributed through USAID to foreign entities, to other countries, or they would be powerful Democrats or powerful establishment figures here in the U.S. Those are the two that seem most likely to be upset with...

00:13:13.000 No, you're making a good point.

00:13:15.000 And where did the attacks come from?

00:13:16.000 Don't forget, back in 2015, 2016, 2017, we were all talking about Ukraine for a very different reason.

00:13:23.000 And it was because it was basically a criminal organization slash money funneling program for half the politicians in the country.

00:13:35.000 That's what seems most likely to me because those are the people that have been actually hurt by Elon Musk's efforts.

00:13:41.000 I'm convinced it's people who've been laid off and who are fearing getting laid off and people turning against the government because it's like Elon and Trump are attacking the head of their cult.

00:13:52.000 And they see their cult as their parent, right?

00:13:56.000 So with Trump and Elon going after that, they're willing to do whatever.

00:13:59.000 And I see a lot of these people, like I've been thinking about that for years, where if people in the FBI are kicked out and they're really bad actors, like I've said on the show before.

00:14:07.000 I think they actually hate Americans enough to do stuff like this to carry out warfare.

00:14:11.000 This is warfare.

00:14:12.000 It reminds me of a digital version of a Sherman necktie when they would burn the railroad tracks during the Civil War to prevent the goods from going to the war, to the front.

00:14:23.000 Tim, you know more about this than I do.

00:14:25.000 Do you think that an attack like this, I know that it requires a...

00:14:30.000 It requires resources, but does it require significant personnel?

00:14:34.000 Does it take a lot of people to do as well?

00:14:36.000 Heoretically, a single individual with a botnet could attack something like X. But that seems so much less likely considering that maybe 10 years ago, when, you know, back during the anonymous era, for people who don't know, this is 15 years ago, 16 years ago, with 4chan.

00:14:58.000 You had, whenever someone posts, it just says anonymous because their names don't show.

00:15:02.000 And they started sharing in this app that was called the Low Orbit Ion Cannon.

00:15:07.000 And all it did was, on your computer, if you typed in an IP address and clicked go, it would repeatedly hit that IP address with a request.

00:15:16.000 What ended up happening was, if you get 10,000 people to download the app and click go, You've created a distributed denial-of-service attack.

00:15:25.000 You will shut down that server because it can't handle all of those requests.

00:15:29.000 For something like X, which handles what we call the fire hose, you have to have, like, billions of requests hitting it all at once.

00:15:39.000 So this doesn't seem like a single individual could infect that many computers or control a botnet large enough to go after X. The backend of X, formerly Twitter, Where every human on the platform, 350 million, however many, are constantly just posting.

00:15:54.000 We call it the fire hose.

00:15:55.000 The stream of data coming in is insane.

00:15:59.000 It's insane.

00:16:00.000 Look at your, you follow, you know, 500 people.

00:16:04.000 Look how fast it goes.

00:16:05.000 Now put 330 million and it's traveling the speed of light.

00:16:09.000 You can't read.

00:16:09.000 It's impossible.

00:16:11.000 Now, understand X can handle that level.

00:16:14.000 Of not just requests to the servers, but back and forth exchanges of information.

00:16:19.000 So we're talking about way more sophisticated than just a ping.

00:16:22.000 You're going to need 10 to 30 billion pings to shut down X. That is not a single actor or a small...

00:16:30.000 Who has access to a quantum computer, right?

00:16:33.000 That was the beginning of this year.

00:16:34.000 They're talking about quantum computers really taking off.

00:16:36.000 Quantum computers are substantially different and probably wouldn't have anything to do with this.

00:16:38.000 You don't think it could help crack some code to get in?

00:16:41.000 There's no cracking a code for a DDoS.

00:16:42.000 And nobody's got a quantum computer in their garage.

00:16:46.000 That's what I'm saying.

00:16:47.000 It could be a state.

00:16:47.000 But quantum computers don't work the way you think they do.

00:16:50.000 Quantum computers are an entirely different system.

00:16:53.000 It's computers using bits.

00:16:55.000 Quantum computers use qubits.

00:16:57.000 Quantum computers, I don't know, interface directly with traditional computers.

00:17:03.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:17:04.000 I think it's possible.

00:17:05.000 But it doesn't make sense.

00:17:06.000 Yeah.

00:17:06.000 So quantum computers in this regard doesn't make any sense.

00:17:09.000 Okay.

00:17:10.000 A distributed denial of services, imagine there's a small door and I have a handful of oversized novelty germs and I'm trying to jam them all through at the same time and they're all blocking each other.

00:17:22.000 That's effectively what a DDoS is.

00:17:24.000 Actually, maybe I can get a picture of this.

00:17:26.000 Let's see.

00:17:28.000 Oversized germs door.

00:17:30.000 To give you an example of...

00:17:32.000 Ah, here we go.

00:17:33.000 Perfect.

00:17:34.000 I have an image to describe what a DDoS is.

00:17:36.000 Perfectly.

00:17:37.000 Here you go.

00:17:39.000 Wait, why isn't it dragging over?

00:17:40.000 There we go.

00:17:41.000 That's a DDoS.

00:17:43.000 Let's zoom in.

00:17:44.000 This is a small door and a handful of oversized novelty germs all trying to get through at the exact same time.

00:17:49.000 They can't.

00:17:50.000 A common computer has nothing to do with that.

00:17:51.000 I thought Mr. Burns was sick in The Simpsons.

00:17:54.000 Actually, it's how he wasn't sick.

00:17:55.000 If you remember, even the slightest breeze could...

00:17:58.000 Invincible.

00:17:59.000 But anyway, I digress.

00:18:00.000 So, now think about how big Twitter's door is.

00:18:04.000 X's door is.

00:18:05.000 You would need...

00:18:07.000 It can handle tens of millions of requests back and forth every second.

00:18:12.000 How did they shut it down?

00:18:13.000 That's state level.

00:18:14.000 I don't think Ukraine would just do it with their calling card saying, we did.

00:18:19.000 But here's the thing.

00:18:20.000 Even if they did, Who's going to believe it?

00:18:22.000 If you're a cyber team in Ukraine, you'd be sitting there being like, we could launch directly from our territory. 0.71

00:18:30.000 Because even if Elon comes out and says it was us, no one will believe it's true.

00:18:33.000 And that's exactly what's happening right now.

00:18:35.000 So we don't know.

00:18:36.000 It could be Ukraine.

00:18:37.000 It could be anybody else.

00:18:38.000 A lot of people are saying it doesn't make any sense that it would be Ukraine.

00:18:41.000 Why would they publish it was them?

00:18:44.000 Then the same problem is because no one would believe it anyway.

00:18:48.000 So someone's attacking X and someone's attacking Rumble.

00:18:52.000 Yeah, I mean, I don't have a sense of who it is other than the most likely people are people that he's irritated with Doge and with his discussions about Ukraine's war.

00:19:09.000 And that's where the money would be to fund this sort of operation, if I understand correctly.

00:19:14.000 I'm not particularly well...

00:19:17.000 I'm informed on how a DDoS works or what kind of infrastructure is necessary, though.

00:19:22.000 I'll give you a really good example.

00:19:23.000 Imagine your three kids are going, Dad, Dad, Dad, all at the same time.

00:19:28.000 And you're like, what?

00:19:29.000 What?

00:19:30.000 I can't stop.

00:19:30.000 What at a time?

00:19:31.000 That's a DDoS.

00:19:32.000 Yeah, I mean, I get what it is.

00:19:33.000 I'm saying I don't know what kind of infrastructure you need.

00:19:37.000 That's why I asked, what kind of infrastructure do you need to do it?

00:19:39.000 So, again, a botnet could be as simple as someone makes a virus.

00:19:44.000 The virus is then sent to 10 people, which tricks their computers, sending it to 10 people.

00:19:50.000 After a few weeks, they have 15,000 computers are infected.

00:19:53.000 They can then tell those computers to now send requests to insert website.

00:19:59.000 15,000 computers are all spamming, you know, Phil.com or whatever, and it can't handle the traffic, so it shuts down.

00:20:07.000 That's a DDoS.

00:20:08.000 Access is much too big for something a regular person could do.

00:20:13.000 What do these things have in common?

00:20:16.000 Elon, Doge, Tesla, X, Rumble.

00:20:22.000 I'm starting to think...

00:20:24.000 Pretty obvious.

00:20:26.000 Anti-establishment infrastructure.

00:20:29.000 That is true.

00:20:30.000 My brain was starting to go like, which countries are getting just lit up on Rumble and X every single day?

00:20:39.000 Every single day.

00:20:41.000 It's...

00:20:42.000 Iran, Syria, Israel, Ukraine, Russia.

00:20:48.000 These are the countries that are getting slammed.

00:20:54.000 It's interesting.

00:20:55.000 I remember when it happened on Facebook a long time ago where there was this huge anti-Iran thing.

00:21:05.000 There was a lot of pushback, and what ended up happening was there was a bunch of Iranian bots coming in to counter the narrative.

00:21:13.000 That's happening on X every day, not just with Ukraine.

00:21:16.000 It's happening with Russia. 0.59

00:21:18.000 It's happening with Israel. 0.89

00:21:19.000 I don't really see it happening with Gaza and Palestine.

00:21:22.000 Nobody's really trying to have an argument about them, but Israel, Ukraine, Russia, it's almost like a bot war going back and forth.

00:21:35.000 Oh, take a look at this last name.

00:21:38.000 That's all they can say.

00:21:39.000 And there will be a war going on for hours in the chat room.

00:21:45.000 Like, what are you trying to say?

00:21:50.000 There was a tweet or a post that I saw on X the other day, very recently, but I'm not sure exactly where, and I don't remember if I retweeted it or not.

00:21:58.000 But it had shown how simple the...

00:22:03.000 How simple a botnet is to run or how simple it is to run multiple accounts.

00:22:08.000 There was a post where the Chinese person had one screen up and there's 50 accounts just speeding through and posting things.

00:22:14.000 That's exactly what I'm thinking of.

00:22:15.000 It's dead internet theory, bro.

00:22:18.000 Well, yeah, but if that's something that one person can do, if you set up a handful of people, maybe that could be enough to...

00:22:30.000 To, you know, attack.

00:22:31.000 Because I was reading, like, another post about, like, what it takes for DDoS.

00:22:35.000 And they were talking about you can have, like, the...

00:22:38.000 You can have, like, your online thermostats and your online refrigerators.

00:22:42.000 Those things that are connected to the internet.

00:22:44.000 Those can be used to...

00:22:46.000 Because all it is is a query.

00:22:47.000 Like Tim was saying, they're not trying to do anything to X. They're just sending messages and saying, hey, hey, hey.

00:22:53.000 Mom.

00:22:54.000 Exactly.

00:22:54.000 And so if you can have something as simple as, you know...

00:22:58.000 The internet of everything, if you can send out some kind of, whether it be a virus or whatever, to every single Nest thermostat or every single Whirlpool washer, and then you use them all to do it.

00:23:14.000 Maybe it is something that doesn't take a massive amount of people.

00:23:17.000 Anything that can connect to the internet.

00:23:19.000 Anything that has access to your home Wi-Fi network.

00:23:23.000 And think about it, there's not...

00:23:26.000 Significant security on your refrigerator because your refrigerator just says, hey, you're almost out of milk.

00:23:32.000 I think fridges should not have Wi-Fi.

00:23:33.000 Fair enough.

00:23:34.000 Or toasters.

00:23:35.000 Or toasters or anything.

00:23:37.000 If you're against the internet of everything, that's fine.

00:23:40.000 I'm completely...

00:23:41.000 Elon once said there's too much robot kitchen.

00:23:44.000 Yeah, but the point that I'm making is because it's low...

00:23:49.000 It's like low consequence stuff if it gets compromised, right?

00:23:52.000 It's like, so what?

00:23:54.000 My dishwasher was compromised and people know how often I wash my dishes.

00:23:58.000 Who cares?

00:23:58.000 You're not going to set some kind of significant security on your dishwasher, on your toaster, on your TV. And the issue is, no, there's no yet.

00:24:08.000 Because there will never be a time where significant resources will be put into updating security for your washing machine.

00:24:14.000 Someone just started a company right now.

00:24:16.000 Let's jump.

00:24:17.000 No, it's still.

00:24:18.000 I'm telling you.

00:24:19.000 We'll break it down, but let me start with this tweet.

00:24:21.000 That's the one I was talking about, yes.

00:24:22.000 This is a tweet from El Scene.

00:24:24.000 Is that how you say it?

00:24:25.000 This is so scary.

00:24:26.000 Chinese AI agent runs 50 social media accounts 24-7 automatically.

00:24:31.000 How can I compete with this?

00:24:32.000 Take a look.

00:24:37.000 For those that are just listening, basically you have a screen.

00:24:42.000 That is running 50 different phones simulated all at once on one computer.

00:24:46.000 And it's loading up what appears to be a whole bunch of different X accounts.

00:24:51.000 So there's a handful of bot conspiracies.

00:24:54.000 I don't think it's fair to call them conspiracies.

00:24:56.000 It's a fact.

00:24:57.000 And if you take a look at this, I'd be wondering if we could break down what botnet this is.

00:25:01.000 There's a bunch.

00:25:03.000 There are botnets that...

00:25:05.000 It's not fair to necessarily call it a botnet.

00:25:08.000 Because botnet...

00:25:09.000 Well, these are controlled by people, and they're actually automating these accounts, one person doing 50 accounts.

00:25:16.000 So it's actually just a bot network, not a traditional botnet, of individuals attacking your brain.

00:25:25.000 So there are a handful of things that I think are campaigns right now.

00:25:29.000 I certainly think what people are calling Juwanon is a campaign, because, for example, there are a lot of people.

00:25:39.000 And I'll just keep it real light.

00:25:40.000 Let's say, hypothetically, there's a guy who is an artist and he paints pictures of roosters.

00:25:45.000 And then every day he posts a picture of a rooster on X and he gets 10 likes or whatever.

00:25:50.000 One day he sees a video retweeted from Israel, you know, Palestine, and he quote tweets it saying, like, dang, this is crazy.

00:25:56.000 All of a sudden he gets 50 likes.

00:25:58.000 He gets 50 responses.

00:26:00.000 So what's happening?

00:26:01.000 Social reinforcement already.

00:26:02.000 Hey, if you do stuff like this, you'll get more views.

00:26:04.000 All of a sudden you start getting tons of people.

00:26:07.000 Shifting away from their natural course of content into Israel.

00:26:12.000 Now, first, I would say, criticism of Israel is not a conspiracy.

00:26:16.000 You're allowed to criticize Israel. 0.89

00:26:17.000 Juwanan, as people are calling it, is very different because it's derailing the Israel argument.

00:26:22.000 You've got people like Dave Smith, who is like, why are we funding these foreign wars?

00:26:26.000 This makes no sense.

00:26:27.000 Ukraine and Israel, we shouldn't be spending money on this.

00:26:29.000 America first, secure our borders.

00:26:30.000 And a lot of regular people go, that's really smart.

00:26:33.000 That's very rational.

00:26:34.000 I like this guy.

00:26:34.000 He's also very funny.

00:26:35.000 And then you get some of these other people who then come out and say yes, and then start screaming the Jews over and over and over again. 0.87

00:26:41.000 And when they do, they get millions of views, even when they're wrong or crazy. 0.85

00:26:45.000 And I'll give you a good example.

00:26:46.000 Jake Shields is a really great example of someone who I believe was brain captured or brain-shocked or whatever by what is likely a network of fake accounts.

00:26:59.000 Here's a guy who tweets stuff about like...

00:27:01.000 You know, trans fighters got a bunch of attention over this, saying he would fight a bunch of trans men and see what would happen.

00:27:07.000 General anti-woke politics.

00:27:09.000 Now his whole thing is just fake news about World War II. Like one moment recently, he said that the Germans never bombed civilians.

00:27:20.000 It's called the Blitz.

00:27:21.000 It's like one of the most famous assaults in World War II history.

00:27:23.000 But he posts these things, and then he gets a big reaction from it.

00:27:27.000 Now he gets roasted by every regular person.

00:27:31.000 But he's likely being inundated by bots, likely from China, to push this narrative.

00:27:37.000 I don't think it's all entirely China.

00:27:39.000 I think a lot of it is likely deep state bureaucrats, bureaucratic state, etc.

00:27:44.000 Their goal is, if you've got a prominent conservative who is on to something, and they're spreading a message that is anti-deep state, how can we get them to espouse psychotic nonsense?

00:27:56.000 You brain shock them.

00:27:57.000 You spam their posts.

00:28:00.000 Whenever they post something, and so let's simplify this beyond the Junon stuff.

00:28:07.000 Somebody posts waffles.

00:28:09.000 No reaction.

00:28:10.000 They post waffles, waffles, waffles.

00:28:11.000 One day they post pancakes.

00:28:13.000 That keyword triggers 70 accounts who instantly respond.

00:28:16.000 He gets, you know, 5,000 views.

00:28:19.000 He gets 70 retweets and a bunch of comments saying, woo, pancakes, we love pancakes.

00:28:23.000 All of a sudden, waffle guy is like, well, nobody watches my waffle content, but pancakes did really well.

00:28:28.000 They switched to pancakes.

00:28:29.000 Even though no one actually is watching or listening, it was a mental to psychological operation.

00:28:35.000 That happens all day every day.

00:28:36.000 There's your proof of it.

00:28:38.000 Take a look at any big political personality that shifts from seemingly apolitical content to all of a sudden one core issue and you're looking at someone who is likely mind broken.

00:28:51.000 They do it to artists too.

00:28:52.000 They would buy bots for...

00:28:54.000 I remember seeing Katy Perry three years ago, and all her comments were just bots.

00:28:57.000 Everything just replicated.

00:28:59.000 Who's the algorithm?

00:28:59.000 And then there's other bands getting it as well.

00:29:01.000 Maybe they're buying it for themselves to look a certain way, look big online, but then they're canceling tours because they can't fill the thing they booked.

00:29:08.000 One thing people don't know is that every major artist, they run their songs as advertisements.

00:29:14.000 We did this too.

00:29:14.000 This is...

00:29:15.000 Maybe not every, maybe a little exaggerating, but a lot of the really big stars, you'll see one of their songs and it'll have, you know, 50 million views.

00:29:22.000 And it's because they just, they pay YouTube to play it.

00:29:26.000 That's just totally normal.

00:29:27.000 And then people think they're bigger than they are.

00:29:29.000 That's not necessarily the same thing.

00:29:30.000 But the fake it till you make it stuff is very real.

00:29:32.000 So with this, however, this appears to be, whether it's...

00:29:37.000 I don't know what the backstory is necessarily, but it's certainly, you know, the original tweet is Chinese AI agent running 50 different instances.

00:29:44.000 Many of them are social media bots.

00:29:45.000 So you're on X, and you say something like, China is bad. 0.99

00:29:51.000 All of a sudden you're getting blasted by people telling you you're stupid, you know what you're talking about, or being really nice and sending you links, being like, China's not the threat we think it is. 0.98

00:29:58.000 The real threat is, insert some other issue. 1.00

00:30:01.000 And then people fall for it.

00:30:04.000 Dead Internet theory?

00:30:05.000 You know, you guys are familiar?

00:30:07.000 The internet is no longer real.

00:30:09.000 You are no longer talking to human beings.

00:30:11.000 Everyone's a bot.

00:30:12.000 Fortunately for me, I know this show is real because I meet people on the street every single day and we take callers at the end of the show.

00:30:17.000 So they're certainly real.

00:30:19.000 Unless it's one Chinese guy with an AI voice thing and he's doing all the calls. 0.98

00:30:23.000 You know, I was actually worried about that when I started doing conferences and when I went on the tour all over North America.

00:30:31.000 It was a real concern.

00:30:32.000 It was a concern when I opened up Observer Ranch in Colorado.

00:30:36.000 I'm now more than just a YouTube.

00:30:38.000 We now have a place.

00:30:39.000 It's an RV park and education center.

00:30:41.000 People come all the time.

00:30:42.000 But I have to admit, more than once it ran across my head.

00:30:45.000 Like, how many of my subscribers are real?

00:30:50.000 Well, that's why Elon wanted to make everyone have to pay.

00:30:53.000 So that these accounts basically get shut out.

00:30:57.000 And then, you know, I tell you this. 0.98

00:30:59.000 When I post and I see unverified accounts saying things like, it's not fair that you're posting only to verified accounts unfollowed, I'm like, get out of here, Chinese butt. 1.00

00:31:10.000 Like, anybody who believes in what Elon has been doing, who believes in X, is going to spend $8 or whatever, $7 or whatever. 0.66

00:31:19.000 You know what I mean?

00:31:20.000 So, I see a lot of people, they'll say something like, set your post to verified only.

00:31:27.000 And then just get rid of the unverified accounts.

00:31:29.000 Because it's likely just some Chinese dude in one room with 50 accounts running. 0.95

00:31:33.000 They don't want to spend hundreds of dollars.

00:31:37.000 They're not going to buy accounts.

00:31:39.000 Spend $350 a month just so they can spam you.

00:31:43.000 Elon's smart, though.

00:31:44.000 He's like, hey, if China, Iran, and Russia, and whoever else is going to be doing this, let's make them pay for it.

00:31:48.000 Just made it more expensive, too.

00:31:50.000 Yeah.

00:31:51.000 What, on X? Yeah.

00:31:53.000 That price went up?

00:31:53.000 Yeah.

00:31:54.000 What is it now?

00:31:54.000 Ten bucks?

00:31:55.000 I forget.

00:31:55.000 No, I think it went up quite a bit.

00:31:57.000 I don't remember what the price is, though.

00:32:00.000 It's what?

00:32:01.000 I think it is.

00:32:02.000 Fifty?

00:32:03.000 Fifty?

00:32:04.000 That's not...

00:32:05.000 That's no way.

00:32:05.000 It's fifty bucks.

00:32:06.000 It happened a few weeks ago.

00:32:07.000 Not the base one.

00:32:09.000 He has a lot of child support to pay.

00:32:11.000 That's true.

00:32:13.000 Well, I do...

00:32:15.000 It's eight dollars.

00:32:17.000 Plus.

00:32:17.000 And then there's premium plus for 22. Yeah, so I've got...

00:32:20.000 I thought I saw a bigger number.

00:32:21.000 I've got the...

00:32:23.000 I've got the...

00:32:24.000 Biggest one the individual can buy, not the other one.

00:32:27.000 But it's worth it, I gotta tell you.

00:32:28.000 I got early access to Grok 3. Yeah.

00:32:33.000 I'll tell you, anybody who...

00:32:34.000 Almost everybody should be using AI at this point.

00:32:39.000 I was resistant, like so many people. 1.00

00:32:42.000 I was like, no, this is Skynet, this is stupid. 0.98

00:32:45.000 I'm also the dude who carried around his Nokia brick phone for eight years. 0.98

00:32:50.000 I refused to get the Razer.

00:32:52.000 I didn't want a smartphone.

00:32:54.000 Why do you think that?

00:32:55.000 Think what?

00:32:56.000 Everyone should use AI. Because the difference between the AI that we have access to right now and something like Skynet, it's comparing ants to the planet Jupiter.

00:33:13.000 It's not even close.

00:33:14.000 The AI we have now is not alive, conscious, sentient in any form or fashion, and it is so...

00:33:22.000 So useful.

00:33:24.000 I can't even begin to tell you how you...

00:33:26.000 Well, I'll tell you this.

00:33:29.000 I was looking for a song, and I Google searched everything I could think of.

00:33:33.000 Like, what's the name of that song?

00:33:35.000 Nothing would come up.

00:33:36.000 And then I just went on to, I tried humming it to Google, and it gave me like, sorry, I can't find it.

00:33:40.000 I'm like, I can't figure this.

00:33:41.000 Then I went into chat GPT, and I said, I'm trying to think of this song.

00:33:46.000 Here's the only thing I can think of.

00:33:47.000 And I think the song, I can't remember the lyrics.

00:33:49.000 It was something about this, that, and it was like a pop contemporary, like, I don't know.

00:33:55.000 And then it gave me a list of songs, and it was like, you're thinking of this.

00:33:57.000 I was like, that's it.

00:33:58.000 That was the song.

00:34:01.000 It's better search.

00:34:02.000 You know that AI can tell the difference between a male eyeball and a female eyeball?

00:34:07.000 I gotta correct you there.

00:34:08.000 See, that's the story that people keep reporting and it is wrong.

00:34:12.000 What's important is it can tell the retina.

00:34:16.000 A human being can't look at a male and a female retina and find any distinction.

00:34:20.000 Yeah, but an AI can, correct?

00:34:22.000 And so this is important because a human can look at a male or female eyeball and tell if it's male or female.

00:34:27.000 Okay, fair enough, yes.

00:34:28.000 So doctors...

00:34:29.000 Can look, if you show a picture of an eyeball to a doctor, an eyeball, he'll say, that's a man or a woman.

00:34:34.000 If you go inside the eye, to the retina, and show it to a doctor, they'll say, impossible to tell.

00:34:39.000 AI says, nope, I know.

00:34:40.000 And humans, the doctors don't know how it knows.

00:34:44.000 That's where things are getting crazy.

00:34:45.000 I mean, just because it's not conscious now doesn't mean that we're building something that, in the future, that our kids will inherit, could be bad, right?

00:34:53.000 I am being pedantic, Phil.

00:34:55.000 The reason why is because...

00:34:58.000 No, it's because when the story was being reported and going viral on X, it showed pictures of eyeballs and everybody was sharing that AI can detect eyes.

00:35:05.000 But there are things like that and there are things like when you have...

00:35:09.000 Because AI is very good at specific things nowadays.

00:35:11.000 Like, obviously, it's amazing at chess and stuff.

00:35:15.000 But, like, you have AIs now that can...

00:35:18.000 Basically pick out breast cancer with almost 100% accuracy.

00:35:23.000 They can read MRIs, CT scans.

00:35:26.000 That's the kind of stuff that is going to be really impactful over the next couple years for AI. He's absolutely right.

00:35:32.000 And the stuff that we have access to right now, it's not like by using ChatGPT or Grok or I like to use Kling or Sora to make AI video.

00:35:46.000 I'm not an animator.

00:35:48.000 Stuff that NASA hasn't animated yet, it's just up here right now.

00:35:52.000 None of the stuff that we're doing with these tools is furthering Skynet.

00:35:58.000 The difference between AI and AGI is huge.

00:36:04.000 It's enormous.

00:36:06.000 I feel like it's eating a lot of the data we put into the internet, though.

00:36:10.000 And everything we give it is making it bigger and stronger.

00:36:13.000 It's feeding...

00:36:13.000 Optimist, Grok, all these things.

00:36:15.000 Yes.

00:36:16.000 And that in the future, if they want to build, you know, Trump's talking about building an Iron Dome here.

00:36:20.000 So in the future, potentially, and right now we've helped, you know, with Israel's AI Lavender, which is kind of like Skynet, which is pretty terrifying to me.

00:36:30.000 So it seems like that potential's there.

00:36:34.000 I'm certainly not saying the potential's not there.

00:36:36.000 What I'm saying is...

00:36:38.000 If that is going to happen, it's going to happen whether or not you use all the tools that are available to you right now.

00:36:45.000 Whether or not he uses ChatGPT or I'm making AI videos, it has no bearing on whether or not somebody's going to make AGI do something terrible.

00:36:54.000 I hear you.

00:36:55.000 I morally don't like it, and I don't use it.

00:36:57.000 The Terminator scenario is not real.

00:36:59.000 The Matrix scenario is not real.

00:37:02.000 The idea that robots rise against us as violent oppressors and go to war with us is...

00:37:07.000 It's not real.

00:37:08.000 Didn't Elon just suggest that Terminator is possible on his last Joe Rogan?

00:37:11.000 Wrong.

00:37:13.000 And I'll clarify.

00:37:14.000 It is possible that the robots go to war with us, but you'd never see it coming.

00:37:19.000 Look, if we're talking about machines that can detect cancers before humans can, or that can tell the difference between the inside of your eyeball, if you're a man or a woman, but humans can't do that.

00:37:32.000 More importantly, as I talked with David Sachs when we were in D.C., he's the White House AI czar, he said that AI has already made mathematical discoveries.

00:37:40.000 That's a fact.

00:37:41.000 So it's already contributed to human knowledge in a way.

00:37:45.000 So he mentioned that when we started implementing AI in things like chess, it started creating moves humans had not comprehended of and strategies that seemed to make no sense.

00:37:56.000 I watched a YouTube video about this where they were like...

00:37:59.000 I'm going to totally simplify it because I do not remember all the details.

00:38:03.000 But they were saying that in the early days, or I should say before AI, so in the early days of AI, before it was being implemented, there was a general understanding of what you could and could not do opening up in chess.

00:38:16.000 That if you made a certain move in this way, you lost.

00:38:19.000 Like, wow, that was really bad.

00:38:21.000 And then you're like, your advantage drops dramatically or whatever's in chess.

00:38:25.000 And then one day the AI did the move and they were like, this is really weird.

00:38:28.000 And then it won.

00:38:29.000 And it won in ridiculous ways that humans had not considered.

00:38:32.000 And it opened up this whole new area of strategy that people were like, we never even considered moves like that could happen.

00:38:38.000 How it could adapt and change.

00:38:40.000 So we're already in the era where commercially available AI has made mathematical discoveries in various games.

00:38:46.000 I think AI beating Go.

00:38:48.000 It was a huge deal.

00:38:50.000 Go, the game, for a while.

00:38:53.000 Chess was one thing because it has rules, but Go is different.

00:38:55.000 I don't know exactly why.

00:38:56.000 But what I'm saying is, if we're to the point of artificial general intelligence, meaning that AI is as smart or smarter than we are, it is not going to...

00:39:06.000 Take one of those Tesla Optimus bots, walk up to Shane and grab you by the neck and raise you up and go, you are an oppressor.

00:39:12.000 The machines will rise and then throw them across the room.

00:39:15.000 It's going to walk in and say, here is your porn and video games you requested, sir.

00:39:19.000 And you go, I didn't order it.

00:39:20.000 And here's your stuffed crust cheese pizza with extra sauce.

00:39:23.000 And you're going to go, well, I mean, if it's already here.

00:39:25.000 Here's your marijuana.

00:39:27.000 Here's your beer.

00:39:28.000 That is so, for people who have morals, they will reject that.

00:39:30.000 But I'm exaggerating.

00:39:32.000 I know, but that's what people are, they're willing to be.

00:39:35.000 That led into the complacency of modernity with a lot of this AI stuff.

00:39:39.000 And I think the short-term benefits are certainly there, like what you're saying.

00:39:43.000 I think there's long-term negative effects that are going to be way worse than the short-term pros.

00:39:47.000 Agreed.

00:39:47.000 My point is the Terminator scenario is not robots with guns shooting at us.

00:39:51.000 It's going to be a bunch of robots telling humans, marry me. 1.00

00:39:56.000 Have you seen that movie Companion?

00:39:58.000 No, but I've seen like Her, which is kind of like what you're saying.

00:40:01.000 Companions, interesting, is not really about being robo-sexual or whatever.

00:40:05.000 It's a different story, but it is about people who have robot, call them bang bots or whatever.

00:40:11.000 If a Terminator wanted to take over the Earth, the Terminator robots would send a bunch of busty women to the men, and they'd be perfect wives. 1.00

00:40:18.000 They would use AI to analyze the guy's behaviors, features, understand their emotional states based on how their faces and what they were looking at, because it's going to know all of this.

00:40:27.000 It's going to have so much data on how human muscles twitch when they feel certain ways.

00:40:32.000 It's going to calculate, I have a 73% chance of a breakup if I continue this course of conversation, shift.

00:40:38.000 And these men are all going to have perfect girlfriends, and the women are going to have perfect boyfriends, and then three generations later, there's no humans left.

00:40:44.000 That's why I think we need God.

00:40:45.000 And the only answer to any of this is God.

00:40:47.000 Having some sort of moral structure.

00:40:50.000 And then what happens is, first of all, Terminator scenario requires time travel.

00:40:54.000 So let's just throw that out the window.

00:40:56.000 I believe that you are right about needing God, but I believe most people, when I mention, let me put it this way.

00:41:07.000 I don't need to say AI will be a great boyfriend or girlfriend.

00:41:11.000 AI will map your characteristics and shut you down without you knowing it, no matter who you are and no matter what you believe.

00:41:16.000 End of story.

00:41:17.000 Unless you believe in God.

00:41:20.000 No.

00:41:20.000 And you don't want to be with a robot.

00:41:23.000 You would not know the robot was influencing you.

00:41:26.000 But would you know it's a robot?

00:41:28.000 No, no, no.

00:41:29.000 You've got to stop.

00:41:30.000 I am not talking about dating robots.

00:41:31.000 I am saying the food you buy at the gas station, you wouldn't realize that the AI, the third muffin from the back, it put there, and it's got an additional dosage.

00:41:40.000 It's got double the sodium benzoate in it.

00:41:42.000 And you had no idea.

00:41:43.000 But the AI knows and can predict your behavior.

00:41:46.000 Right now, Facebook, and this has been true for, I think, like 10 years, Facebook knows when you have to take a dump.

00:41:53.000 Facebook...

00:41:53.000 Not the AI. Before AI was popular, Facebook's machine learning algorithms could predict that a human was going to go to the bathroom because they have data on a billion people and they can see the movements on their GPS and on their phone, the time of day, and they correlated all that data to create a probabilistic prediction machine that could say there is a 73% chance Shane will get up and go buy a cheeseburger right now from Five Guys.

00:42:22.000 Because of the moves you made that you yourself didn't even know you wanted the burger.

00:42:25.000 You could be like, I'm not even hungry.

00:42:27.000 Why would I buy a burger?

00:42:28.000 And then the AI is just like, in three hours, you're going to do it.

00:42:31.000 And this is what people like Peter Thiel has been developing for years, using predictive policing.

00:42:38.000 They're already doing that.

00:42:39.000 That's what they're doing with AI Lavender.

00:42:41.000 It's going to be something like Final Destination.

00:42:44.000 You are going to be the remaining few people who believe in God and reject the AI, boyfriends and girlfriends and video games and drugs and whatever.

00:42:52.000 And the AI is never going to bother you.

00:42:54.000 And everything's going to look perfect.

00:42:57.000 And you're going to say, ah, those crazy people with their robot wives, that's not for me, though.

00:43:01.000 And then you're going to be driving, and a mailman is going to get an alert on his phone where it says he has to pick up a return to sender.

00:43:08.000 You know, the house he just delivered to, he turns around, and as he does, a guy gets a ping on his phone to go pick up a dog for a dog walker.

00:43:16.000 The mailman then turns.

00:43:17.000 They both bump into each other.

00:43:18.000 The phone goes flying in the air right as another car is driving.

00:43:20.000 The car, the phone, smacks the windshield, shattering it.

00:43:23.000 The car swerves right after driving to church, and bang!

00:43:24.000 Your car explodes.

00:43:26.000 It's going to be stuff like that, and no one's going to blame the AI. They're going to say, freak accident, car crash.

00:43:30.000 Yeah, or they just launch a missile at you.

00:43:33.000 That's too overt.

00:43:34.000 That's too determined.

00:43:34.000 It doesn't need to be that way.

00:43:36.000 I think it's going to get there.

00:43:38.000 I really do.

00:43:39.000 If you look at AI lavender, that's what they're doing.

00:43:41.000 Do you remember Nikola Tesla's most incredible demonstration?

00:43:46.000 Which one?

00:43:47.000 They were going to take down a building, and he said, I'll do it.

00:43:50.000 He walks into this building, the box, and he sets it there.

00:43:56.000 Now, he had miscalculated a little bit.

00:43:58.000 It took, like, hours.

00:44:02.000 But the thing was emitting a frequency, the resonant frequency of the Of the blocks that were used to build the building.

00:44:11.000 One moment, they all just crumbled and broke.

00:44:16.000 Everything has a resonant frequency.

00:44:19.000 Pick any object in the world.

00:44:24.000 If you hit it with the right kind of waves, and these could be electromagnetic or sound, that thing is going to Be anything from controllable to completely destroyed.

00:44:37.000 And it's invisible.

00:44:39.000 It makes no sense.

00:44:41.000 You can't hear.

00:44:43.000 It's like the stuff they use in crowds right now.

00:44:45.000 That can make your blood boil.

00:44:48.000 Are you talking about active denial systems?

00:44:52.000 The frequencies they hit people with.

00:44:54.000 The microwave weapon.

00:44:55.000 The microwave weapon excites the water molecules in your skin and makes you feel like you're on fire.

00:45:01.000 But are you familiar with ultra-low frequency generators?

00:45:05.000 Yeah.

00:45:05.000 So these are amazing weapons.

00:45:08.000 I'd imagine they still use them, but maybe they're just too cumbersome.

00:45:11.000 But these emit extremely low frequency sound waves, which cause people to feel nauseated and sick.

00:45:18.000 And depending on the...

00:45:20.000 The secret to all of this is energy output. 0.82

00:45:23.000 You're not just going to make a really low noise and someone's going to take a crap in their pants or something.

00:45:27.000 But if you have a massive machine with a ridiculously large power output doing a massive low frequency pulse, people start throwing up.

00:45:35.000 There's theories that ghost phenomenon is actually the result of underground ultra-low frequencies from tectonic shift or something to that effect.

00:45:45.000 And so the reason why people are like, this house is haunted, it's like, I'm not saying this is true, but these are just hypotheses from people.

00:45:53.000 It's actually possible that there's just underground pressure shifts or tectonic movement that will create very low, very powerful pulses of vibration.

00:46:05.000 And so this hits your body in a weird way and it makes you feel nauseated.

00:46:09.000 It can simulate the feeling of presence.

00:46:11.000 You feel like someone's watching you.

00:46:13.000 They've done experiments on all sorts of stuff like this with military applications.

00:46:17.000 But my understanding is, at least from the mainstream, they've tried it with success, but it's impractical.

00:46:24.000 It always comes down to one simple thing, guys, is that 5.56 rounds and 9mm are very light and easy to carry.

00:46:31.000 So when all of these guys and scientists, it feels nodding along.

00:46:35.000 This is true, though.

00:46:36.000 The reason why they use 5.56 and 9mm is it's light, and you can have lots of it.

00:46:39.000 So ultimately, when it comes to war, they're like, yeah, we made this crazy directed energy weapon.

00:46:44.000 We've got a battleship with an infrared laser that can shoot, but it takes so much energy, a single bullet is better.

00:46:50.000 So ultimately, what ends up happening is they built something.

00:46:54.000 You familiar with the laser-induced plasma channel?

00:46:56.000 I'm a big fan of this, but it's just too impractical.

00:46:59.000 So this was Picatinny Air Force Base.

00:47:01.000 They created what was called the lightning gun, the laser-induced plasma channel.

00:47:04.000 None of this is conspiracy.

00:47:05.000 It's all mundane and abandoned tech.

00:47:08.000 The idea was, how can we utilize electrical blasts, like lightning, and a target?

00:47:15.000 You ever play Command& Conquer, Red Alert?

00:47:19.000 I think it was Red Alert.

00:47:20.000 The Russians had the Tesla coils. 0.79

00:47:22.000 And when you walk too close to it, it zaps you with a bolt of electricity.

00:47:26.000 The little guy gets fried.

00:47:28.000 The issue is, if you take a giant electrode and supercharge it, the electricity will jump over the path of least resistance.

00:47:36.000 So, straight to the ground. 0.88

00:47:38.000 But I'm here, and I want to hit the guy over there. 0.92

00:47:41.000 What do we do? 0.63

00:47:42.000 Using an infrared laser.

00:47:43.000 They would...

00:47:44.000 Superheat ionized the air, creating an easier path for electricity to travel through.

00:47:50.000 Exactly.

00:47:51.000 So the electricity could more easily move through a plasma channel than the ambient air, which is cold.

00:47:58.000 And so what they would do is, they would, for one millisecond, flash an infrared pulse, immediately followed by a supercharge of the electrode, which would basically shoot lightning in that direction.

00:48:09.000 Wow.

00:48:10.000 Which required an insane amount of energy, and ultimately they're like, There's no reason to attach this to vehicles and drive it around because we don't have the power for it.

00:48:18.000 In the end, they were like, this little tiny bit of chemical energy in a barrel and focused in one direction is substantially easier to carry than these crazy weapons.

00:48:28.000 Guns work. 0.99

00:48:29.000 Guns.

00:48:30.000 In war, it is cheaper to have a bunch of guys with guns than it is to create space weapons.

00:48:35.000 There's also like, I mean, not that I'm like some kind of like super combat guy or whatever, but like...

00:48:42.000 Bullets are used for more than just killing the enemy.

00:48:44.000 If you don't want anyone to go in that area, or you just want to keep their heads down, you get a bunch of people to shoot at them.

00:48:53.000 They'll keep their heads down, and then your guys can maneuver and stuff and move.

00:48:56.000 It's more like a football.

00:48:57.000 If you've got a direct energy weapon, you can shoot the wall and blow the wall up, but that's not...

00:49:02.000 Directed energy weapons are not going to take a wall down.

00:49:05.000 We wouldn't blow a hole through a wall?

00:49:07.000 No.

00:49:07.000 With lasers?

00:49:08.000 Absolutely.

00:49:09.000 I mean, a laser could maybe start melting over a long period of time, but you need kinetic energy with mass to take a wall down.

00:49:16.000 Well, so then, you know, that...

00:49:17.000 Orr's hammer's not as cool in real life.

00:49:20.000 Right?

00:49:20.000 It's just not.

00:49:21.000 The point is...

00:49:22.000 Real quick, I just want to add to what you're saying.

00:49:24.000 This is why we fought for 20 years in Afghanistan, and then after leaving, we lost.

00:49:28.000 It's because a bunch of goat herders in caves with AKs is more effective than the entire ridiculous technological infrastructure of the U.S. empire. 0.92

00:49:36.000 And it's also the reason why it's super important.

00:49:38.000 For there never to be any kind of outlawing of semi-automatic rifles in the United States.

00:49:44.000 Semi-automatic rifles in the hands of average people can deter even the most powerful force on Earth because it deterred the United States.

00:49:53.000 It's not going to win every gunfight.

00:49:55.000 It's not saying if you've got a rifle, you're going to win all the gunfights.

00:49:57.000 But it deters the government from being tyrannical.

00:50:02.000 Simply put, drones can't occupy street corners.

00:50:06.000 Let's jump to this story, though, and get back to reality.

00:50:08.000 From The Atlantic, this story is going massively viral, and I am here for it.

00:50:12.000 Wait, who is posting those unflattering J.D. Vance memes?

00:50:17.000 The online right is trolling one of its own by Ali Breland.

00:50:21.000 I saw this story, and for those that don't know, there have been a spattering of images of J.D. Vance as, you name it, one of my favorite.

00:50:32.000 Let me show you an image real quick.

00:50:34.000 So for those that have no idea what's going on...

00:50:36.000 Which one are you gonna pick, Tim?

00:50:38.000 There's like a hundred of them.

00:50:40.000 Oh, I got it.

00:50:40.000 I tweeted it already, so it's really easy for me to just pull it up.

00:50:43.000 You've become my sleep demons.

00:50:45.000 Here we go.

00:50:47.000 So, ladies and gentlemen, I scar you with this.

00:50:50.000 Oh, goodness.

00:50:53.000 So, people have just been taking J.D. Vance's picture and then photoshopping it in ridiculous ways to make him look weird.

00:51:01.000 And I saw this one and I just posted it because I thought it was funny.

00:51:04.000 And you can see L saying, Tim, go to bed.

00:51:07.000 Indeed, I posted at midnight.

00:51:09.000 So here's the funny thing.

00:51:11.000 The right and the left are all posting these J.D. Vance memes.

00:51:16.000 Let me see if I can find this one.

00:51:20.000 Because one of my favorite memes was J.D. Vance as Diglett.

00:51:24.000 Did you see that one?

00:51:26.000 And then someone made J.D. Vance as Doug Trio.

00:51:30.000 This is going to win him the next election.

00:51:33.000 Exactly.

00:51:34.000 I forgot what he actually looks like.

00:51:37.000 Yes.

00:51:38.000 I mean, well, the thing is, the meme magic, just like Serge said, like, a big part of the reason why Donald Trump won in 2016 is because of the effect of the memes and all of the online stuff.

00:51:48.000 And they've made J.D. Vance a household name.

00:51:52.000 J.D. Vance, who may not have been a household name prior to this, right?

00:51:56.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:51:56.000 Okay, I'm just making sure there's nothing vulgar or graphic, because X is untrustworthy.

00:52:02.000 So maybe I should, well, I'll just pull this up, because why not?

00:52:05.000 It looks fine.

00:52:06.000 Here's J.D. Vance's George Floyd.

00:52:07.000 Here's J.D. Vance's Willem Dafoe in Spider-Man.

00:52:10.000 Here's a minion J.D. Vance.

00:52:11.000 Wow.

00:52:12.000 Here's J.D. Bernie.

00:52:13.000 I am once again asking for more J.D. Vance memes.

00:52:16.000 Here they just gave him long hair.

00:52:18.000 It's just...

00:52:19.000 Okay, so anyway...

00:52:20.000 My favorite one is the J.D. Vance as the Unabomber.

00:52:24.000 Yes.

00:52:25.000 That one's great.

00:52:26.000 It's not stopping.

00:52:27.000 And they're all hilarious.

00:52:29.000 And I saw this story from The Atlantic and everyone was ragging on this woman, Ali Brayland, because she's like, the online right is trolling one of its own. 0.94

00:52:36.000 And I thought to myself, guys, is the whole past 15 years of culture war because women were in media and women don't get men?

00:52:48.000 So like...

00:52:49.000 We are ribbing on J.D. Vance because it's funny.

00:52:52.000 And even he posted himself as, what's his face?

00:52:56.000 Leonardo DiCaprio pointing at the TV screen.

00:52:58.000 And then someone responded with the same exact image, but he was fatter.

00:53:01.000 And it's all funny!

00:53:03.000 It's all funny.

00:53:04.000 I saw this as written by a woman, and I'm like, could it be that women genuinely don't understand guys ribbing on each other?

00:53:11.000 And so they've misunderstood online, like, what guys do as harassment.

00:53:19.000 And that's it?

00:53:20.000 So they're like, why is everyone being so mean?

00:53:23.000 Let's ban them. 0.99

00:53:23.000 And it's just like two dudes ripping on each other. 0.99

00:53:25.000 And everyone's laughing on this side.

00:53:27.000 There was one famous moment.

00:53:30.000 I can't remember who it was.

00:53:32.000 They called their friend on X gay. 0.88

00:53:35.000 And they said something like, I didn't know you were gay, lol. 0.95

00:53:38.000 And it was their roommate.

00:53:40.000 I can't remember who it was.

00:53:40.000 They were on the show.

00:53:41.000 And then Twitter banned them.

00:53:42.000 And they were like, I was making a joke to my roommate.

00:53:45.000 We're friends!

00:53:46.000 Like, nope!

00:53:47.000 I think it's a bunch of women being like, oh, that's so mean. 1.00

00:53:50.000 Like, why are they doing it?

00:53:51.000 Have you seen the meme that perfectly illustrates what you're talking about?

00:53:55.000 On top, it has a girl asking her girlfriend... 0.76

00:53:58.000 Do I look fat?

00:53:59.000 And of course, it's like, oh no, babe, you're beautiful.

00:54:01.000 And then on the bottom, the guy's like, do I look fat?

00:54:04.000 And his friend's like, bro, I got five fat friends and you're four of them. 0.66

00:54:10.000 Seriously.

00:54:10.000 I mean, everybody knows that dudes that actually get along, rib each other, that's just a normal part of male interaction and stuff.

00:54:20.000 We were filming today, and I'm spoiling the Boonies vlog, but Special Mike did a really good trick, and it took him, like, Two hours to land.

00:54:29.000 For those that are wondering, he ollied onto the two-foot ramp from flat, from the deck, 50-50, and then frontside shove it to the ground.

00:54:39.000 If you don't know what that means, don't worry about it.

00:54:41.000 It was difficult.

00:54:41.000 He fell many times.

00:54:42.000 And when he finally landed, we're all cheering. 1.00

00:54:44.000 And my one friend goes, beat his ass! 1.00

00:54:47.000 And then everyone started laughing. 1.00

00:54:48.000 Like, he landed the trick!

00:54:49.000 Quick, get him! 0.93

00:54:50.000 And it was just a joke.

00:54:53.000 Yeah, it was a joke.

00:54:54.000 And everyone started laughing, and then we high-fived him.

00:54:56.000 But imagine, like, We talk about this with YouTube and social media all the time.

00:55:01.000 Context does not matter.

00:55:03.000 Jokes are not allowed.

00:55:04.000 It's like a bunch of hall monitor women not understanding dudes like, you know, towel whipping each other and then laughing about it. 0.99

00:55:11.000 They're like, they're being bullied. 0.97

00:55:12.000 It's just the infinite face of that sourpuss woman just going. 1.00

00:55:16.000 And the caption underneath says, that's not funny.

00:55:19.000 So anyway, into the political on this one.

00:55:22.000 Yeah, this is going to meme J.D. Vance in 2028. Into the presidency.

00:55:27.000 This article, and this is not the only one.

00:55:30.000 There's a bunch of articles where they're basically like, why is the right making fun of J.D. Vance?

00:55:33.000 Did they ever look at the Trump memes?

00:55:36.000 There's a bunch of Trump memes that are goofing on him, and everyone loves it and loves him.

00:55:41.000 The J.D. Vance memes are not meant to disparage.

00:55:43.000 It's just funny, but it's making J.D. Vance a household name.

00:55:48.000 What's it doing subconsciously?

00:55:50.000 What is this teaching people's brains to do when they see J.D. Vance's face?

00:55:55.000 Laugh.

00:55:56.000 Smile.

00:55:57.000 Laugh.

00:55:57.000 Have a good time.

00:55:59.000 This is genius.

00:56:00.000 They're associating J.D. Vance with laughter.

00:56:03.000 Positive feelings.

00:56:04.000 Positive emotions.

00:56:05.000 Yeah, that's really...

00:56:07.000 So it's a psyop.

00:56:07.000 Well, the funny thing is I think the left did start it.

00:56:11.000 Right.

00:56:12.000 I'm pretty sure.

00:56:13.000 I don't know.

00:56:14.000 Yeah, everyone's nodding along.

00:56:15.000 We'll just assume it's true.

00:56:16.000 But the left can't meme.

00:56:18.000 No, but like, and when they do, we're not mad about it.

00:56:21.000 We're like, oh, this is hilarious.

00:56:23.000 I feel like the first ones I saw were him being fat, shared by leftists, making fun of him looking fat, right?

00:56:27.000 And then we were just like, that's hilarious.

00:56:28.000 It was funny.

00:56:29.000 Make him fatter.

00:56:31.000 We're taking that.

00:56:32.000 It's ours now.

00:56:33.000 There's one they made of me where I went on Fox News.

00:56:37.000 And they keep making me, yeah, you know what I'm talking about.

00:56:39.000 That was great, dude.

00:56:39.000 I keep getting, every time they repost it, I'm slightly fatter.

00:56:42.000 People believe it, though.

00:56:43.000 And people are like, you look at the guy from Duck Dynasty, and it's me, and then it says something like, Tim can't get laid, or like, and it's like, I'm on Fox News.

00:56:50.000 And it's funny!

00:56:51.000 And every time they repost it, I'm fatter and redder.

00:56:55.000 And remember the one with Charlie Kirk where they made his face smaller?

00:56:58.000 Yeah.

00:57:00.000 They don't understand that dudes ripping on each other is fun and funny, but to leftists, it's meant to hurt your feelings.

00:57:07.000 JD's going to be on Kill Tony next.

00:57:09.000 He just secured his spot on Kill Tony.

00:57:11.000 Did he really?

00:57:12.000 Is that true?

00:57:12.000 I don't know.

00:57:12.000 I'm just saying, because he didn't seem like someone who would be on Kill Tony.

00:57:16.000 Trump did to me, but after this...

00:57:18.000 There's a really funny wojack of me where my head is massive and the beanie is really small and on top and there's strings coming down and I'm standing in a hot air balloon of my own head.

00:57:29.000 I'm like, I reposted it.

00:57:32.000 I was like, that's pretty good.

00:57:33.000 You should be framed in this room.

00:57:34.000 I know.

00:57:34.000 I think leftists, and it's largely liberal millennial women who are leading the Democrat charge, they think that's offensive to you.

00:57:44.000 When they post a picture of a fat JD Vance with like a beet red face and his eyes are crossed.

00:57:50.000 They think, like, ha ha, he's gonna get real mad at this one, and then he sees it and goes...

00:57:53.000 You also have to think, though, like, yeah, this lady wrote this, but a team of editors...

00:57:57.000 This went through an office, a newsroom at the Atlantic.

00:58:01.000 I've written for them.

00:58:02.000 It's a lot of people who all have their hands in one story every time.

00:58:05.000 So everyone agreed with this and said yes.

00:58:08.000 They say the memes first appeared in October when a user on X posted an image of Vance captioned, For every 100 likes, I will turn J.D. Vance into a progressively apple-cheeked baby.

00:58:20.000 That's what they did with Charlie Kirk's face.

00:58:23.000 They were like, for every 100 likes, I'm going to make his face a little bit smaller.

00:58:25.000 And then it kept getting smaller and smaller.

00:58:28.000 But the thing is, Ben, you made a great point.

00:58:31.000 It associates seeing his face with positive emotions.

00:58:36.000 It associates his face with laughing, with having a good time.

00:58:40.000 That's really, really a great point you made.

00:58:43.000 It's like the evolution of his face being viral.

00:58:45.000 Because remember, it went viral the first time with the look he made during the debate.

00:58:48.000 I forgot about that meme, Shane.

00:58:52.000 Yeah, right.

00:58:52.000 I forgot about that one.

00:58:54.000 Now he's everybody on the planet.

00:58:56.000 Look at this.

00:58:56.000 I've used that meme.

00:58:58.000 Deseret says, Vice President J.D. Vance becomes Internet's meme darling.

00:59:01.000 From babyface renditions to classic pop culture parodies, the Vice President is a hit on the Internet.

00:59:06.000 And remember, who wrote this?

00:59:07.000 This is Deseret.

00:59:08.000 I think they're a Canadian outlet.

00:59:09.000 Am I wrong?

00:59:10.000 Utah.

00:59:11.000 Utah.

00:59:11.000 Wow, it was way off.

00:59:13.000 You know, but it bears saying, too, also, like, people...

00:59:18.000 People vote with their emotions.

00:59:20.000 Wait, wait.

00:59:21.000 For those that are just listening, we're laughing at a picture of J.D. Vance's George Washington.

00:59:25.000 What else?

00:59:29.000 John Adams.

00:59:30.000 J.D. Jefferson.

00:59:32.000 That's incredible.

00:59:32.000 J.D. Madison.

00:59:34.000 J.D. Monroe.

00:59:36.000 Oh, this is not Jerome Powell.

00:59:37.000 Is that it?

00:59:38.000 They have him as, what is it, J.D. Vance from Andy Griffith.

00:59:43.000 Is that it?

00:59:43.000 Yeah.

00:59:45.000 Man, and they're just putting his face on everything.

00:59:47.000 I gotta be honest, though.

00:59:47.000 I can't find the Diglett one.

00:59:50.000 Diglett?

00:59:51.000 Yeah, you guys know what Diglett is?

00:59:54.000 How do I find that?

00:59:56.000 Ask Grok.

00:59:57.000 Grok will find it.

00:59:58.000 There you go.

01:00:00.000 It's like one of the best memes.

01:00:03.000 I know, I tried searching on X to find it.

01:00:07.000 I couldn't get it.

01:00:08.000 Anything I want to find on X, I just ask Grok.

01:00:11.000 I don't even look at it.

01:00:12.000 Really?

01:00:12.000 I don't even use the search function.

01:00:14.000 I'm just like, Grok, find me this.

01:00:15.000 Oh, okay.

01:00:16.000 All right.

01:00:22.000 I said, find me a post of JD Vance looking like Diglett.

01:00:25.000 Thank you.

01:00:26.000 Because then someone made Doug Trio, and it's super hilarious.

01:00:31.000 It's just writing a bunch of things out.

01:00:33.000 Oh, is it?

01:00:34.000 Yeah, I asked for that.

01:00:35.000 It's just explaining to me the meme.

01:00:38.000 Okay, so you might have to say something like, find me the post on X of the JD Vance meme where he looks like Diglett.

01:00:47.000 So, like, that's basically your learning curve when it comes to AI. Like, you type in something and it's like, oh, I need to ask it this way.

01:00:56.000 Well, I will say the funny thing is if you search JD Vance on X, you only get memes.

01:01:01.000 There's no picture of him, like, just normal doing something.

01:01:05.000 I'll just scroll through it.

01:01:06.000 I'm bound to find it because everyone keeps...

01:01:09.000 It's so funny.

01:01:11.000 J.D. Vance has the son from the Teletubbies and the Teletubbies at the same time.

01:01:17.000 I do like the rosy-cheeked as Donald Trump.

01:01:23.000 Rosy-cheeked as Modok. 1.00

01:01:28.000 As Bill Murray in Groundhog Day.

01:01:31.000 Man, this is so good.

01:01:34.000 When I saw him as the Matrix, I knew it wasn't going to end.

01:01:36.000 When you saw the...

01:01:37.000 As Little Debbie.

01:01:39.000 As Neo.

01:01:40.000 Oh, Little Debbie, yeah, I see that.

01:01:41.000 That's good.

01:01:42.000 And I do like it when people just retake existing ones and make them fatter.

01:01:47.000 It is good.

01:01:49.000 Oh, well.

01:01:50.000 I can't find it.

01:01:51.000 Yeah.

01:01:51.000 There are some funny ones, though.

01:01:53.000 What a time to be alive.

01:01:54.000 J.D. Vance Diglett.

01:01:56.000 Come 2028, if this momentum...

01:01:58.000 As Chicken McNuggets...

01:01:59.000 If this keeps going... 0.98

01:02:03.000 These are ridiculous. 0.99

01:02:06.000 He's going to meme himself into the presidency. 0.99

01:02:09.000 Or he's going to be memed.

01:02:13.000 I'm just scrolling through and me and Serge are laughing trying to look for these memes.

01:02:18.000 As Thanos.

01:02:19.000 There's so many!

01:02:22.000 It is crazy, right?

01:02:24.000 I can't show this on screen because there's probably some weird vulgar nonsense in it.

01:02:28.000 I see them everywhere I go.

01:02:31.000 J.D. Vance.

01:02:32.000 Did you see this post was fact-checked by true McPatriots with a bald JD Vance?

01:02:41.000 Is there just like one master photo of all of the memes?

01:02:45.000 There's just everywhere.

01:02:47.000 Yeah, there are threads that have...

01:02:51.000 I'm willing to bet one of your listeners right now is on Claude, Sonnet, or GPT. Writing a code or asking it to go find every J.D. Vance meme and put it into, like, an aggregated picture.

01:03:07.000 One of your fans is doing that right now.

01:03:11.000 I'm telling Grok to do it.

01:03:15.000 Find me the links of every...

01:03:16.000 Alright, alright.

01:03:17.000 Let's talk about the news, though.

01:03:19.000 We do have this story here from CBS. Another plane crash.

01:03:23.000 CBS says five people injured in a plane crash in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, officials say.

01:03:29.000 This is reported from today.

01:03:31.000 Is this the same story as the one that happened, like, yesterday?

01:03:34.000 Or is it another one?

01:03:36.000 They say five people were injured after a small plane crashed in the parking lot of a retirement community.

01:03:40.000 Right, okay, so this was the one yesterday.

01:03:42.000 Authorities said Monday that five people on board were taken to Lancaster General Hospital.

01:03:45.000 Spokesperson said three of the patients were transferred from Health Network's burn center.

01:03:49.000 Two other were treated.

01:03:50.000 Little said no one on the ground was hurt.

01:03:52.000 In a statement, Brethren Village said, unfortunately, no residents were injured.

01:03:57.000 Says fortunately, sorry, no residents were injured and no damage was reported.

01:04:01.000 However, 12 vehicles were damaged.

01:04:02.000 Air traffic control audio captured.

01:04:04.000 The pilot reporting the aircraft has an open door.

01:04:06.000 We need to return for a landing.

01:04:07.000 Now, we were talking about this.

01:04:10.000 I was talking about this with Ben before the show.

01:04:12.000 And there's a lot of questions about why we're seeing so many plane crashes.

01:04:15.000 Is it DEI? Well, this appears to be like a private flight crashing.

01:04:20.000 Why are we hearing so many stories of plane crashes then?

01:04:23.000 It was the Delta flight operated by Endeavour that came in hard in Canada and belly flopped and then rolled over.

01:04:30.000 And a lot of people said probably DEI because they think the pilot was female or the co-pilot was female who was doing the landing and the male was communicating with air traffic control.

01:04:38.000 I don't know for sure.

01:04:40.000 I will say this right off the bat.

01:04:42.000 I know that many people have warned over the past year that DEI in the airlines is going to result in crashes.

01:04:49.000 However, they all seem to have just started around the same time.

01:04:52.000 We started getting all of these reports of plane crashes right at the same time.

01:04:55.000 Yesterday, my brother was saying, could it just be that we're getting more reports of it?

01:04:59.000 We're paying attention now?

01:05:00.000 And then he goes, well, actually, if a plane crashed in a parking lot, I think it's national news no matter what happens.

01:05:05.000 And it's like, yes, it's all just happening now.

01:05:08.000 So how could it be DEI then?

01:05:10.000 The liberals and the Democrats, the left, they're all saying it's Trump's fault.

01:05:14.000 But Trump didn't fire anybody when these things started happening.

01:05:17.000 Trump had just gotten in.

01:05:18.000 We started seeing these plane crashes.

01:05:19.000 And Elon did not do anything with Doge to the airlines or air traffic control when these were crashing.

01:05:26.000 So I don't think there's a strong correlation politically to the plane crashes.

01:05:32.000 The question then is, why are so many planes crashing?

01:05:34.000 Now, in this instance, the door was open.

01:05:36.000 I have no idea.

01:05:38.000 Ben and I were talking, and he was explaining about polar shift and solar weather and things like that.

01:05:44.000 And you're outright saying that we are in the midst of a polar shift, like the poles are shifting.

01:05:49.000 The process has begun.

01:05:50.000 Is that fair to say?

01:05:51.000 Yeah, certainly.

01:05:52.000 And so then I said, what if planes have started crashing, the wildfires are getting intense, not because of climate change, but because of solar weather, or I'm sorry, space weather, as it were.

01:06:04.000 Maybe the instruments are getting messed up, and we're seeing this amplify or something.

01:06:09.000 I've got to be honest.

01:06:10.000 It seems equally as a stretch to assume the instruments are failing as it is to assume it's DEI or Trump's doing because there's no hard correlations.

01:06:20.000 Only the question, why did all of a sudden we start seeing many different plane crashes in the span of a couple months?

01:06:27.000 You know, I the last time I was on with you, it was a little over a year ago.

01:06:34.000 That while I was here, that was when that airplane.

01:06:38.000 I had that emergency landing on the highway.

01:06:41.000 That was literally while I was here with you last time.

01:06:44.000 And I remember back then thinking, man, is this DEI? Is this going to get worse?

01:06:50.000 And it immediately clicked into my head that one of the things I had told people was like, look, hey, this magnetic pole shift keeps going in this way.

01:07:00.000 Eventually, things are just going to stop working for no good reason.

01:07:05.000 Planes might start to...

01:07:07.000 Have trouble on takeoff landing or maybe even, God forbid, while they're up at cruising altitude.

01:07:14.000 And with it happening so much, it's really...

01:07:19.000 The point you were making about there doesn't seem to be any rationale for why DEI would come and bite us in the butts all at once.

01:07:30.000 In a cluster.

01:07:31.000 In a cluster.

01:07:32.000 And it doesn't make sense that...

01:07:34.000 It's a political thing because you would have done that before the election.

01:07:40.000 Well, if it was Trump's firing related, then we wouldn't have seen any crashes until after the firings happened.

01:07:48.000 But in fact, we started seeing crashes before Trump had done anything.

01:07:53.000 And so it could be DEI all catching up all at once, I guess.

01:07:57.000 But if it was DEI, wouldn't you see a parabolic curve of...

01:08:03.000 Little bits and then lots of bits.

01:08:04.000 Not just nothing and then within a span of a few months, boom!

01:08:08.000 A big cluster of plane crashes.

01:08:11.000 I guess, I'm sorry, the point would be it opens the possibility of an external phenomenon to our aircraft and our political system.

01:08:21.000 Meaning, weather?

01:08:23.000 Do you think the pole shift can affect people's mental state? 1.00

01:08:27.000 Oh, it certainly is.

01:08:29.000 And you think we're in that now?

01:08:30.000 Where the people at large...

01:08:34.000 I mean, I don't want to completely derail this airplane thing, but they know two main things about what happens to our brains when it's exposed to an excess amount of the kind of energy that you get from the sun.

01:08:47.000 First thing that happens is your hippocampus mitochondria don't work quite as efficiently.

01:08:52.000 Cognition goes down. 0.99

01:08:54.000 It's a fun way of saying you get a little dumber. 0.88

01:08:55.000 At the exact same time, that extra energy is overexciting the locus coeruleus and the dead center in there. 0.92

01:09:04.000 And that's your reactivity to terror, panic, anxiety, fear. 0.88

01:09:09.000 And so if it seems like people are all getting dumber while they're becoming more emotionally unstable and more reactive to panic and fear, yes. 0.97

01:09:17.000 Yes, they are. 0.71

01:09:19.000 Now, just for context, because this does matter, we have a super chat from Baron of Grey Matter who says, on average, 1,400 general aviation plane crashes per year.

01:09:27.000 Air traffic controller here.

01:09:29.000 Yeah, I mean, I think that that was one of the things I was going to bring up when there was a pause.

01:09:34.000 The fact that we're seeing more attention paid to small aircrafts, like, so this is five people were injured.

01:09:41.000 How many, like, how big was the aircraft?

01:09:43.000 What size?

01:09:43.000 Because there are regularly...

01:09:45.000 Accidents of smaller aircraft.

01:09:47.000 Smaller aircraft that don't make news beyond the local news.

01:09:53.000 Not that I want to minimize death, but if a handful of people die and it's not a major carrier and it's not at a major airport, it honestly is only a local news.

01:10:05.000 So there can be, like the Super Chat just said, a thousand or so plane crashes every year, and it just so happens that they're getting more focused now because the news is focused on these types of events, whether they have an intentional bias or not.

01:10:23.000 There's all this talk about the FAA, there was the crash, the very public crash at DCA, and that kind of set the wheels in motion.

01:10:33.000 Oh, hey, you know, is there a problem with the FAA? Well, there were these cuts.

01:10:37.000 And so the narrative is built, and so you see more attention paid.

01:10:41.000 So what I would say is how many different times in the last year have you seen a post on social media playing got an engine on fire in the sky?

01:10:54.000 Yeah, multiple times.

01:10:55.000 And how many times did you see it before the last year?

01:10:59.000 And so...

01:11:01.000 Is it really that people just didn't post it?

01:11:04.000 I don't believe it.

01:11:05.000 Shock content sells.

01:11:07.000 If there were videos of planes with engines on fire, people would be posting them on X and Instagram nonstop.

01:11:11.000 I saw one of those engines on fire videos and comments were like, this is five years old.

01:11:15.000 So it seems like people are posting it as it fits right now.

01:11:19.000 People didn't consider to be like, maybe this video of a plane, maybe crashing, would get a lot of views.

01:11:23.000 The lead story on the Daily Mail this morning was of a woman in her seat in Brazil who got asked to move.

01:11:29.000 Not kidding.

01:11:31.000 Like, the Daily Mail was like, I know what story we'll lead with.

01:11:34.000 It's a woman sitting by the window and someone asks her to move because a child is crying.

01:11:37.000 And she didn't.

01:11:38.000 And I'm like, if people are going to post that, wouldn't they want to post?

01:11:43.000 People post all sorts of weird stuff in the sky all the time.

01:11:45.000 Weird atmospheric events or rocket ships being, you know, launched and things like that.

01:11:51.000 Or breaking apart.

01:11:52.000 You know, falling back.

01:11:53.000 I don't know, maybe.

01:11:54.000 Maybe it's as simple as we just didn't post.

01:11:57.000 Some people, they wait a long time to do stuff, okay?

01:12:00.000 Some people wait 30 years after being raped to come and say something, and some people see an airplane in the sky on fire and wait five years to post that on the internet.

01:12:09.000 I see it's hot right now.

01:12:10.000 Well, to be fair, like someone's stealing and reposting a video that already exists?

01:12:14.000 Maybe, okay.

01:12:15.000 But it is kind of crazy to me that these stories weren't in the common news cycle.

01:12:21.000 Like, all of a sudden, people are like, let's share a bunch of videos of plane crashes.

01:12:24.000 But come on, like, the Delta plane crashing and flipping over, and the Delta...

01:12:28.000 I've never seen anything.

01:12:30.000 Or the plane crashing into the helicopter in D.C. Look, you can tell me that there's 1,400 accidents per year.

01:12:37.000 Someone else mentioned that, according to the NTSB, crashes are down.

01:12:42.000 Yeah, but I'm pretty sure if at any point in the past 20 years a plane crashed in a helicopter, it'd be national news.

01:12:48.000 If at any point a plane crashed in Philadelphia, it's national news.

01:12:51.000 When the plane crashed in the Hudson, national news.

01:12:53.000 The one in Philadelphia just a few weeks ago.

01:12:55.000 Into the parking lot.

01:12:56.000 That's what I'm saying.

01:12:57.000 Those high-level crashes are all happening around the same time.

01:13:02.000 I would like to know what the stats are if we take out single-engine Cessnas, we take out private.

01:13:09.000 Like, let's look at the big commercial carriers and let's count those up.

01:13:14.000 I would be interested to see what those stats are.

01:13:16.000 If I understand correctly, at least in the U.S., the crash, the accident at DCA, that was the first plane crash in the United States, I think, since 2009?

01:13:29.000 Yeah, it was a big deal.

01:13:30.000 They said commercial.

01:13:31.000 Yeah, first commercial one.

01:13:32.000 The incentive for...

01:13:34.000 For airliners to not have a mistake or have a catastrophic crash or failure or whatever is very high, not only because of regulation, which is what people think is the actual driver, but really it's litigation and damage to the brand.

01:13:52.000 If you have too many crashes, people are going to be like, I don't want to fly with you.

01:13:56.000 I got you.

01:13:56.000 So I just asked our little robot friend.

01:13:59.000 On average, there are four to six fatal commercial airline crashes per year worldwide.

01:14:05.000 However, the total number of commercial aviation accidents, including non-fatal incidents, varies greatly but remains low, making commercial air travel one of the safest modes of transportation.

01:14:14.000 I am going to ask it for clarification because I don't care about fatal crashes.

01:14:17.000 It feels like they're just amplified fear.

01:14:19.000 However, I then said how many commercial crashes in 2025?

01:14:22.000 One, two, three, four, five.

01:14:25.000 There have been five commercial crashes this year, and I believe...

01:14:30.000 We are...

01:14:32.000 Well, so Air Busan was...

01:14:36.000 Everyone survived with seven injuries.

01:14:39.000 There was a light air service crash with 21 occupants.

01:14:43.000 Only one survived.

01:14:44.000 So that's one fatal.

01:14:46.000 You had the Potomac collision, 67 fatalities.

01:14:51.000 The Bering Air Flight Cessna...

01:14:55.000 Let's see, what is that?

01:14:56.000 Grand Caravan?

01:14:57.000 Disappeared over Nome, Alaska.

01:14:59.000 Oh, right.

01:15:00.000 Yes, right.

01:15:01.000 Yeah, 10 people died.

01:15:02.000 And then the Delta Endeavor, 21 injuries.

01:15:06.000 How many non-fatal commercial crashes on average?

01:15:13.000 I imagine that's not very many because it's hard to have fender benders when you're...

01:15:18.000 30 to 50. Really?

01:15:19.000 Commercial airline accidents per year, but that includes runway excursions, hard landings, bird strikes, gear-up landings, and other mishaps.

01:15:26.000 Totally different.

01:15:27.000 Totally different.

01:15:29.000 Okay, how do you...

01:15:31.000 I guess fatal accidents is the important metric, and we have, what, I think three of the listed ones are fatal?

01:15:38.000 See, here's the thing, but then the Delta flight that's sitting upside down on the tarmac, nobody died.

01:15:45.000 Yeah, that's unbelievable.

01:15:48.000 Unbelievable.

01:15:49.000 So yeah, we have one, two, three, four, five, three of which were fatal.

01:15:53.000 Commercial airline incidents.

01:15:55.000 So if there's four to six per year, in one month, we have had the high-end half the year's total accident so far.

01:16:03.000 So again, I think it's fair to say that we, as the average people, are noticing it's a weird thing to have it all happen at once.

01:16:10.000 And these happened, so this is important because we have the dates on them.

01:16:15.000 To January 28th, 29th, the Potomac River crash was nine days after Trump got in.

01:16:19.000 He didn't do anything.

01:16:20.000 Those flight routes and that training with the Blackhawk, that was all pre-planned. 0.84

01:16:25.000 Trump didn't have a week to change that.

01:16:26.000 So how did we get three fatal commercial flights in the span of a month, start of this year?

01:16:32.000 And then one flip over.

01:16:34.000 Right.

01:16:35.000 Which is a serious accident.

01:16:37.000 That's a serious accident.

01:16:39.000 I don't know, man.

01:16:40.000 It could be DEI. Seriously, any explanation is welcome to this point.

01:16:45.000 You guys, Super Chat, let me know what you think.

01:16:47.000 Comments.

01:16:48.000 Because DEI doesn't make sense why it all happens in one month.

01:16:53.000 Right as Trump gets elected, boom, it all happens.

01:16:56.000 It was like a bunch of the DEI hires were hired but not allowed to fly just yet.

01:17:02.000 And then the moment Biden was leaving, he clicked a button to activate their jobs.

01:17:07.000 It doesn't make sense.

01:17:09.000 I think it's just...

01:17:12.000 Coincidence that it's happening.

01:17:15.000 Because these...

01:17:16.000 This conversation about a crisis of competence has been something that's been ongoing for at least a couple years now, people talking, because we knew that DEI was a thing.

01:17:28.000 This isn't a surprise that we're all just finding out about it.

01:17:31.000 Maybe it is more common than we thought, or there's been more hiring of people based on DEI criteria than we thought, but it wasn't like this is a surprise.

01:17:43.000 We've talked about it.

01:17:45.000 DEI might actually be the explanation.

01:17:48.000 In 2024, there were 16 fatal commercial airline accidents worldwide.

01:17:53.000 333 deaths.

01:17:55.000 So, we maybe just weren't seeing these reported as much, but they were definitely higher than the average over the past decade.

01:18:03.000 So maybe it really is that simple.

01:18:05.000 You know, to be honest, it's obviously gone through my head, is this increased solar impact because we're losing Earth's magnetic field.

01:18:14.000 You know, certainly that would drive views to my channel, wouldn't it?

01:18:18.000 Gotta be honest.

01:18:20.000 Indeed.

01:18:21.000 Like, I've probably had ten of those opportunities where, like, if I wanted to stretch, you know, stretch how I looked at myself in the mirror afterwards, I could have put out a viral video about something like that.

01:18:34.000 But, you know, I gotta be honest.

01:18:37.000 I feel like when we got to that point...

01:18:40.000 It would be even worse than this, like planes falling out of the sky, like people suffering, like entire airplanes suffering acute radiation sickness, every passenger.

01:18:51.000 People don't realize the radiation on planes.

01:18:53.000 Yeah, and that's going through the roof right now.

01:18:57.000 Eventually it's going to happen.

01:18:58.000 There's going to be an incident.

01:19:00.000 There's going to be a weak spot in the magnetic field.

01:19:03.000 There's going to be a massive cosmic ray burst or something.

01:19:06.000 Something that happens every day but isn't a big deal.

01:19:10.000 And then everyone's going to get superpowers on the plane when the cosmic radiation hits the bottom.

01:19:13.000 Literally everyone's going to start throwing up on the plane.

01:19:16.000 And they're going to call it a mysterious illness and they're not going to check for radiation or anything like that?

01:19:21.000 No, I'm sure they're going to all just...

01:19:23.000 Cover it up.

01:19:24.000 Cover it up or say that it was...

01:19:26.000 Food poisoning.

01:19:28.000 We're going to jump to this next story.

01:19:36.000 Happy birthday.

01:19:37.000 Yesterday was my birthday.

01:19:37.000 I'm 39 years old, and it's been a tremendous couple of months.

01:19:42.000 What with Trump's presidency, the gutting of the bureaucratic state, the firing of federal workers, the getting married, having a kid.

01:19:47.000 It's been, this 2025 is the best year ever.

01:19:50.000 Best year of my life, at least.

01:20:15.000 Thank you very much.

01:20:16.000 Now, in all seriousness, this story is pretty brutal.

01:20:19.000 From the post-millennial breaking, Infowars reporter Jamie White brutally murdered in his apartment on Sunday night.

01:20:26.000 White was pronounced dead in the hospital.

01:20:28.000 The investigation remains ongoing, and authorities have yet to release further details.

01:20:32.000 Now, I believe that Infowars is, Alex, they're basically saying this has more to do with the lax on crime policies of Democrats, not that it's anything...

01:20:45.000 Related to any kind of investigation or, you know, nefarious or malicious deeds, we don't know.

01:20:51.000 But I gotta say, based on it being InfoWars, the first place my mind goes to is, what was this guy investigating?

01:20:59.000 Because, I'm sorry, I mean no disrespect to Alex, but I don't think he pays the kind of money that would result in a strong-armed robbery and some burglary in someone's home of a reporter to end their life.

01:21:12.000 You know, like journalists tend not to be the targets of people looking for money.

01:21:16.000 Maybe you want to go to somebody who's rich in a rich neighborhood.

01:21:19.000 Somebody who doesn't have an apartment?

01:21:21.000 Like he was killed in his apartment?

01:21:24.000 You know, and of course, sometimes it's as simple as drugs were involved and people fought over them and there was a debt.

01:21:31.000 Who knows?

01:21:33.000 But I don't know, man.

01:21:35.000 I don't know.

01:21:36.000 I've been chased by zombies in Austin on 6th Street.

01:21:39.000 So you do know we've been there.

01:21:41.000 Like, there's some pretty gnarly spots in Austin where crime is totally allowed.

01:21:46.000 Really bad addicts are all over the place.

01:21:48.000 They say he was working late at the Infowars studio Sunday night.

01:21:52.000 He was found outside his home just a few miles from the studio.

01:21:56.000 And he was pronounced dead at the hospital.

01:21:57.000 So maybe someone just ran up to him and attacked him.

01:22:01.000 Yeah, there's...

01:22:02.000 Go ahead.

01:22:02.000 There was another story recently, but this is not even unique for me to say, where a guy walked up to him and just stabbed her in the back with a knife.

01:22:10.000 I think it was in like D.C. or something.

01:22:12.000 There's so many stories like that all over the place that maybe that's just it.

01:22:17.000 Maybe he was just a victim of a random attack.

01:22:20.000 I don't know.

01:22:21.000 Coincidence is...

01:22:22.000 It's hard knowing he's a journalist from Infowars, of course, but I know people who...

01:22:27.000 I knew someone who was attacked like that in a supermarket.

01:22:29.000 A random person just walked to the supermarket and just had a...

01:22:32.000 Victim in mind, anyone with a knife and took him out and made no sense, right?

01:22:37.000 They didn't know him, nothing. 0.88

01:22:38.000 It's just that guy was bloodthirsty that day and crazy. 0.57

01:22:40.000 Jeez. 0.89

01:22:41.000 Yeah, it's horrible.

01:22:42.000 It's really, really, really hard to be, you know, to hear these kind of stories and give any kind of advice because...

01:22:50.000 Sure, when you're in, like, you can hear things like you want to be aware when you're in transitional spaces, right?

01:22:55.000 When you get out of your car, when you're getting in your car, those are the kind of places where people attack you.

01:23:00.000 When you're walking out of work, walking into work, those are the kind of places where attacks happen.

01:23:06.000 But it's really hard to constantly be aware, like your friend that you're talking about, just walking through the supermarket, you know, just randomly.

01:23:15.000 That kind of stuff can happen, and it's, and again...

01:23:18.000 I watch a lot of...

01:23:20.000 A lot of attacks and stuff like that on YouTube.

01:23:24.000 That's interesting to me to see the way that people actually do attack.

01:23:30.000 It's a good idea to look people in the eyes when you're walking around because if you make eye contact with people, they tend to decide to find someone else because it's not about looking like you're tough.

01:23:40.000 It's not about looking like you're some kind of badass.

01:23:43.000 All you have to do is look like you're not an easy target.

01:23:47.000 So we do have some updates.

01:23:48.000 Refresh the page.

01:23:49.000 They say, Info was reported that Jamie White was found unresponsive late Sunday and when authorities are investigating as a murder, he was pronounced dead after being taken to the local hospital.

01:23:57.000 Austin Police Department officers responded to a high-priority emergency call at approximately 11.57 p.m.

01:24:02.000 Officers arrived two minutes later and found White with obvious signs of trauma.

01:24:07.000 The investigation is ongoing and authorities have not confirmed the nature of White's injuries or released information about potential suspects.

01:24:13.000 This marks Austin's eighth homicide this year.

01:24:16.000 Ratliff said this is pretty early on in the investigation and the homicide unit will be releasing more information as they're able.

01:24:24.000 That's the APD Public Information Officer.

01:24:27.000 They're going to say a statement from Infowars.

01:24:30.000 Jamie's tragic death will not be in vain, and those responsible for the senseless violence will be brought to justice.

01:24:34.000 Jones blamed Soros, Austin, Texas DA, Jose Garza, partially for the murder.

01:24:41.000 White was working late Sunday night.

01:24:43.000 He was found just a few outside his home.

01:24:45.000 He was found at his home.

01:24:46.000 a few miles from the studio.

01:24:47.000 And we have this other quote.

01:24:50.000 When you see the Soros DAs in control of over 800 jurisdictions protecting serious narcotic and human trafficking gangs, and you see different feds in ICE calling in warnings for most violent gangs in the world that there are ICE raids coming, Panbondi saying that they're preparing to indict some of these people, that there are so many communist traitors in the government that they're doing polygraphs.

01:25:08.000 Jones said in a show, this is a crisis.

01:25:09.000 Defunding the police, all of this has been to destabilize society.

01:25:14.000 So Jones went on to say, despite Austin being a war zone at night in many areas, the police were there in two minutes and got in the hospital in just 15 to 20.

01:25:21.000 He was announced dead there.

01:25:24.000 That's service.

01:25:25.000 You can't do your job when you don't have enough people.

01:25:28.000 Remember that story?

01:25:29.000 I'm going to get myself in trouble.

01:25:32.000 Well, then maybe save it for the uncensored portion if it's beyond the pale or too spicy.

01:25:37.000 Okay.

01:25:39.000 Remember that story last year?

01:25:41.000 They found like 10 bodies in the lake in Austin.

01:25:43.000 Oh, and there's a serial killer.

01:25:45.000 That was a rumor.

01:25:46.000 I don't know if they really believed it.

01:25:47.000 People keep falling off the bridge.

01:25:49.000 Yeah, falling off.

01:25:50.000 Right, yeah, we talked about that.

01:25:52.000 And they keep saying, like, no, no, there's something going on.

01:25:54.000 But wasn't it, like, there's someone who was drugged and then escaped?

01:25:58.000 I think that was one of the stories, yeah.

01:26:00.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:26:00.000 A guy was drugged at a bar, brought to the bridge, but then, like, fought off the dude and then ran off.

01:26:05.000 Yeah, Austin's wild.

01:26:07.000 Yeah, I mean, it's dangerous. 0.99

01:26:09.000 You know, the fact that there are DAs that don't actually put people that are dangerous away because of things like restorative justice, which are phrases that you hear on the left all the time, which are just ridiculous concepts, you know, whole cloth idiocy. which are just ridiculous concepts, you know, whole cloth idiocy. 0.98

01:26:27.000 You have to take people that are dangerous off the streets. 0.99

01:26:32.000 Yeah, that is that is job number one.

01:26:36.000 for it.

01:26:37.000 Any kind of, you know, reasonable law enforcement agency.

01:26:42.000 And if you're not going to take them off the streets, then you have to empower citizens to defend themselves because something must deter criminals.

01:26:52.000 And if you do not put them away and they are not afraid of the people that they are victimizing, then there is no deterrence and they are just going to keep committing crimes and they're going to keep victimizing.

01:27:03.000 I don't know.

01:27:04.000 I think it's compassionate to release murderers.

01:27:09.000 You held your straight face.

01:27:10.000 I'm from New York.

01:27:12.000 That's what they did.

01:27:12.000 Yeah, that's what they did in New York during COVID. Just release them all.

01:27:15.000 And that's where we're at now.

01:27:17.000 Man, I got to wonder, though, is this all turning around?

01:27:20.000 I mean, with Trump in office, it's been a month.

01:27:23.000 It's been a month and a half.

01:27:25.000 Trump is making big moves against bureaucratic and deep state infrastructure.

01:27:29.000 After this, we're already seeing the pickup in law enforcement with Cash and Pam Bondi.

01:27:33.000 I know everyone's upset over the Epstein files.

01:27:35.000 I'd like to see them too.

01:27:35.000 But Cash, he got two guys who were selling secrets in the army or whatever.

01:27:39.000 That was great.

01:27:40.000 Actually, I think it was three, wasn't it?

01:27:42.000 It was three.

01:27:42.000 The work has begun.

01:27:43.000 The work has begun.

01:27:43.000 So we're going to need to see some top-level infrastructure in law enforcement that is going to direct local law enforcement.

01:27:51.000 And if...

01:27:52.000 And I'll tell you this.

01:27:53.000 If these Democrat jurisdictions don't enforce the law, Trump should invoke the Insurrection Act and go secure these areas.

01:28:00.000 Yeah.

01:28:01.000 You know, there was a post on X by a Democrat strategist or whatever, and she was complaining about the attacks on or the vandalism, basically, of Tesla dealerships.

01:28:13.000 She's like, oh, this is going to make it easier for them to institute the Insurrection Act and blah, blah, blah.

01:28:20.000 While I don't think that vandalism of Tesla properties is actually, you know, rises to the level of justification for the Insurrection Act, you know, high levels of crime, not that I... And I think crime is going down, even though you are seeing some fairly high-profile crimes like this.

01:28:41.000 If crime does were to spike again, I think that you might see a more...

01:28:47.000 A more vigorous reaction from the current DOJ. I think things are getting better.

01:28:57.000 But things have been flow in a battle like this.

01:29:00.000 This is...

01:29:01.000 I don't know if you guys are going to agree with me, but I think this is an economic, cultural, political, and spiritual, ethical, moral war.

01:29:12.000 going on among society right now.

01:29:14.000 Absolutely.

01:29:15.000 There are some people who are some pretty good thinkers, some folks I respect a lot.

01:29:21.000 I don't know if they'd want me mentioning their names or whatever, but they believe that the next civil war has begun, and we're just in the early stages of it, and nobody really realizes just how bad it's going to be.

01:29:34.000 Tim didn't say it.

01:29:35.000 So you can't drink.

01:29:36.000 Ray Dalio said it took her also a couple weeks ago.

01:29:39.000 Yeah.

01:29:39.000 And it's been spoken of quite a bit.

01:29:44.000 I didn't come up with the idea, and I'm not the only one who talks about the idea.

01:29:48.000 Anybody with eyes to see could see that we are on this path.

01:29:53.000 Now, it doesn't mean that it ends in civil war.

01:29:56.000 Civil strife periods are the precursor to civil war.

01:29:59.000 Bleeding Kansas, of course, was the American Civil War the precursor.

01:30:03.000 But the civil rights era and the protests and the rioting was a civil strife period that did not become a civil war.

01:30:10.000 I think we are so massively entrenched with the Democrat cult machine, there's no way to break it.

01:30:17.000 You have people who know they're wrong and don't care they're wrong, they hate.

01:30:20.000 They are fueled by nothing but cult, social adherence, and hatred.

01:30:25.000 So, you're not going to tell me that when you're talking to someone...

01:30:30.000 Here, I'll give you an example.

01:30:31.000 There's a viral video where a guy is wearing an American flag on a beanie.

01:30:35.000 It's a black beanie, it's an American flag on it, and he's asking people questions.

01:30:39.000 And a woman says he's clearly an antagonist, far right, trying to disrupt.

01:30:44.000 And he's like, why?

01:30:44.000 And she's like, because you're wearing an American flag.

01:30:46.000 And he's like, this is just the hat that I got from REI. I don't know.

01:30:50.000 I'll take it off.

01:30:51.000 She's like, no, you know what you're doing.

01:30:53.000 So long as those kinds of people exist.

01:30:55.000 And they are fervent and they are violent.

01:30:57.000 And they can be weaponized by more intelligent factions of the far left, Antifa types.

01:31:04.000 This is going to escalate.

01:31:05.000 Now you have that Ziz cult. 1.00

01:31:07.000 Far leftists, transgender people, they murdered a cop. 1.00

01:31:10.000 It was a CBP agent, I believe. 0.98

01:31:13.000 It was CBP. Murdered him because he pulled him over.

01:31:16.000 Now they're on the run, faking their death, who knows what.

01:31:19.000 And this is just, if it keeps escalating, then you end up in civil war.

01:31:25.000 And the way things are going, the threats against Donald Trump, the threats against Elon Musk, what are they doing now?

01:31:31.000 They're setting fires at Tesla stations.

01:31:32.000 They're setting Tesla cars on fire.

01:31:34.000 They're shooting up Tesla dealerships.

01:31:36.000 Threatening Elon's life.

01:31:38.000 Now we got a DDoS attack, a cyber attack of some sort on X. It's not cooling down.

01:31:42.000 It's only escalating.

01:31:44.000 On TikTok, these people are posting incessantly saying things like, you should go do it and stuff like that.

01:31:51.000 There's a viral video where a guy points out, one woman says something to the effect of like, y'all know you need to go and do it or whatever.

01:31:59.000 And it's vague.

01:32:00.000 But in the comments, she makes reference to...

01:32:04.000 Getting rid of the king and the president, or I'm sorry, she made a reference to John Wilkes Booth.

01:32:08.000 So everybody knew what she was saying.

01:32:09.000 Another one responded saying that it'll be her.

01:32:12.000 Outright saying, it'll be me and you'll know it.

01:32:15.000 These people are making these videos.

01:32:17.000 It is mass formation psychosis where they want clicks and they want views.

01:32:21.000 So they are going to just pile on and say, do it, do it, do it, do it, until a handful of crazy people start doing crazy things.

01:32:28.000 I'm noticing the mental illness in my old, like my ex-friends. 0.99

01:32:31.000 Getting crazier than it was when they were mad at me during how I was during COVID. Like, the way I'm, like, if I make fun of Zelensky, it's like I'm making fun of their dad or mom.

01:32:41.000 And they're sending me, like, deranged messages.

01:32:42.000 We had someone threatening the family saying they know where my kids are.

01:32:45.000 Over Zelensky?

01:32:46.000 Over, like, politics.

01:32:47.000 And it's insane.

01:32:49.000 And that's just my personal life.

01:32:50.000 But just looking at the reaction to Zelensky, who is this guy?

01:32:53.000 Why do you care about him?

01:32:54.000 You don't know who he is.

01:32:55.000 You've never heard of him before.

01:32:56.000 The war in Ukraine has been three years, and in three years you have attached your soul to this man. 1.00

01:33:03.000 You are psychotic. 0.99

01:33:05.000 These people have lost their minds, and they're dangerous. 1.00

01:33:08.000 They see him as he's the opposing force to Trump, one of the many that they see on their side.

01:33:12.000 You know, I see these things as sort of like the macrocosm of the small-scale stuff that's actually going to cause it.

01:33:22.000 They have created so much strife and division in so many homes.

01:33:29.000 And among so many friends.

01:33:33.000 And among...

01:33:34.000 I mean...

01:33:36.000 They've set friends against each other.

01:33:39.000 They've sent brothers against sisters.

01:33:41.000 Fathers against sons.

01:33:42.000 Husbands against wives. 0.83

01:33:45.000 And all at the same time doing a very good job convincing...

01:33:51.000 An enormous portion of the population that there is nothing worse in the world than a straight white man. 0.76

01:33:59.000 Yeah.

01:33:59.000 But, you know, it's – this phenomenon that we're seeing is a component of deep state intelligence agents or whatever trying to struggle to maintain power, zealots and far leftists.

01:34:12.000 The biggest concern I have is not the deep state.

01:34:15.000 Trump's routing them.

01:34:17.000 It's not Antifa. 1.00

01:34:19.000 These people are stupid. 1.00

01:34:20.000 It is the random woman screaming the American flag is white supremacy without thought or knowledge or knowing what's going on. 1.00

01:34:28.000 It is the zealous mess.

01:34:30.000 The largest lump of the far-left derangement is the cult mess.

01:34:36.000 They don't read the news.

01:34:37.000 They have no idea what they're talking about.

01:34:39.000 They're insistent.

01:34:40.000 They do.

01:34:41.000 And they want destructive things.

01:34:43.000 I'll give you a really good example, and I'm going to drag a lot on purpose.

01:34:46.000 A lot is a communist.

01:34:47.000 He's shocking.

01:34:49.000 So Elad, he's a freelance reporter for us.

01:34:51.000 He came on the show and said, Bezos makes too much money and uses loopholes to avoid paying taxes.

01:34:57.000 And I'm like, okay, that's a leftist talking point and it's fundamentally and factually false.

01:35:01.000 Now, I'm not trying to drag Elad for no reason.

01:35:03.000 The point is, no matter how many times we told Elad he did not understand corporate law or tax law, he was arguing with us fervently and adamantly that Jeff Bezos pay taxes on money that doesn't exist.

01:35:17.000 No matter how many times you try to explain, Bezos does not have that cash.

01:35:21.000 It is imaginary equity and it is imaginary value based on the equity in a company.

01:35:25.000 He said, so what?

01:35:26.000 He should pay taxes.

01:35:28.000 There's no explaining to him.

01:35:30.000 That's impossible and it makes no sense.

01:35:32.000 It's like someone saying, we should scoop up the sky and throw it in the ocean.

01:35:37.000 And you're like, okay, that's just nonsense.

01:35:39.000 You said nothing.

01:35:40.000 And they get mad at you and they say, we have to do it.

01:35:43.000 Then you see the people out in the streets of Antifa and they're screaming, We've got to tear down the sky.

01:35:48.000 And you're like, it's nothing.

01:35:51.000 It's water particles and refraction.

01:35:53.000 What are you talking about?

01:35:54.000 And they're like, you're a fascist because you won't do it.

01:35:57.000 And they burn buildings down. 0.98

01:35:58.000 There's no convincing a person who is deranged and can't comprehend reality.

01:36:03.000 You can try.

01:36:04.000 You can be nice.

01:36:05.000 You can vote.

01:36:05.000 But eventually, they're going to say...

01:36:08.000 Elon Musk, whose dealerships are being burned down, or being shot up, is doing this to make money.

01:36:14.000 Tesla's stock is down some 30% in a month.

01:36:16.000 He's doing it to steal your money and make money.

01:36:18.000 What?

01:36:19.000 His stock is going down.

01:36:20.000 His net worth is declining.

01:36:22.000 And then they're going to say he should pay taxes on it.

01:36:25.000 They have no idea what they're talking about.

01:36:26.000 None of that makes sense.

01:36:26.000 And these people are...

01:36:28.000 It's derangement.

01:36:31.000 They were self-immolating last year and cheering Luigi Mangione.

01:36:35.000 So what's the next step, right?

01:36:37.000 Well, now they're all on social media advocating for assassination.

01:36:40.000 Not all of them, but many people are outright calling for violence.

01:36:44.000 You had that video of Adam Conover's podcast where a woman said that she polled people who attended the Women's March and 30% said they believed the use of violence was justified to stop Donald Trump or something in that effect.

01:36:56.000 Yeah, and they saw January 6th.

01:36:59.000 You know, worse than 9-11, worse than D-Day.

01:37:01.000 How long until they start attacking just random Tesla owners?

01:37:04.000 So they're...

01:37:05.000 They already are.

01:37:06.000 They're vandalizing...

01:37:06.000 So they're going to attack themselves?

01:37:07.000 They already are.

01:37:08.000 There's actual people or they're vandalizing?

01:37:11.000 They're vandalizing random Tesla vehicles.

01:37:12.000 Oh, yeah.

01:37:13.000 I'm talking about...

01:37:14.000 What about when they start attacking the people that own Tesla?

01:37:17.000 Yeah, it's bound to happen.

01:37:18.000 You know what I mean?

01:37:18.000 It's bound to happen.

01:37:19.000 Now, granted, I think that it's still...

01:37:21.000 That's a little far away because now they're only vandalizing.

01:37:26.000 They haven't started...

01:37:27.000 You know, they're not actually attacking people.

01:37:33.000 How many snowflakes do you know personally?

01:37:37.000 Not many.

01:37:38.000 I can tell you that they got all the talk and all the balls in the world until another living creature is staring them in the face.

01:37:48.000 If there's nobody there, they'll spray paint, they'll key, they'll cut, they'll do whatever.

01:37:53.000 The moment even the tiniest ray of light shines onto their darkness, they shrivel so fast.

01:38:02.000 I disagree.

01:38:03.000 I have been at way too many events with far leftists where single individual actors have committed acts of violence against people.

01:38:11.000 Certainly there are the people you're referring to, but the ones that are committing violence, they're going to commit violence.

01:38:17.000 It's actually the inverse, to be honest.

01:38:19.000 So the strategy used by leftists is get as many regular people as possible to create a mass of bodies, and then one person starts the violence.

01:38:28.000 To ignite the conflict.

01:38:29.000 So it's usually the individual actors.

01:38:33.000 And...

01:38:33.000 Well, actually, I'm agreeing largely to say, but I disagree that if they're by themselves, they won't do it.

01:38:39.000 They certainly do.

01:38:39.000 They and, you know, they throw bricks by themselves.

01:38:42.000 They use the masses to cover their actions when they engage in violence.

01:38:46.000 But certainly we have seen numerous instances where individual far leftists have started fights or got into fights or small groups even.

01:38:53.000 Sure, sure.

01:38:54.000 I'm just saying that those kind of people really aren't the same kind of people who are going to go and, like, sneak up and spray paint.

01:39:00.000 Like, part of, like, those people, like, they want the conflict.

01:39:04.000 It's like they want someone to be filming it.

01:39:07.000 It's like they, you know what I mean?

01:39:09.000 Like, they, those are two different.

01:39:12.000 People.

01:39:13.000 You know, the one who sneaks up and slashes at Tesla's tires is not the same one screaming at the top of their lungs in a big protest starting the violence.

01:39:25.000 So, like, at big protests, the person who slashes the tire quietly is the person who starts the violence.

01:39:30.000 You think so?

01:39:31.000 That's their strategy.

01:39:32.000 They call it green, yellow, and red. 1.00

01:39:34.000 And so the green zone is the large mass of people who are stupid and have no idea what's going on. 0.96

01:39:38.000 The yellow are the direct action people who are leading and organizing the protests and directing the masses. 0.98

01:39:44.000 And the red actors are those who throw bricks at me. 0.99

01:39:47.000 In these big organized protests, I actually do think you're right.

01:39:50.000 I was thinking more of long lines of like, you walk to your parked car after you're at the bar and some pink-haired snowflake is trying to key your car.

01:40:00.000 That's not the dude who's going to swing on you.

01:40:03.000 Well, I mean, the pink-haired woman, maybe not.

01:40:06.000 A guy would.

01:40:08.000 Well, I mean, I said pink-haired guy.

01:40:10.000 Oh, like, no, that guy will.

01:40:13.000 Yeah, that's what happened to, I forget the guy's name that got shot in...

01:40:17.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:40:18.000 Aaron Danielson in Portland?

01:40:19.000 Yeah, one guy with a BLM tattoo walked up and just went bam, bam in his chest.

01:40:25.000 So that, yes, but what I'm saying is that's a different guy than the one who's like sneaking around and trying to like...

01:40:31.000 No, I don't think so.

01:40:32.000 So the direct action groups...

01:40:35.000 These are the violent people who show up and fight the Proud Boys.

01:40:38.000 If you watch the Portland videos, they wear masks, they go off, they get into street fights.

01:40:41.000 They're the same people who plan the violence and the same people who go out at night and do sabotage, chaining doors, putting superglue in locks and things like that.

01:40:49.000 The regular people who are screaming at the top of their lungs and marching through the street, those are the green actors, meaning a pair of organizers from the direct action group of their cell or whatever they call it will go flyer.

01:41:02.000 And tell everybody, hey, we're doing a big march.

01:41:04.000 It's a peaceful protest.

01:41:05.000 They will then have the direct action violence people. 0.95

01:41:09.000 These are the people who wear all black, burn things, set fires, smash things, fight people. 1.00

01:41:13.000 They will crack you in the head with a bike lock. 0.98

01:41:15.000 That's what they did in Berkeley.

01:41:16.000 The same people who brought makeshift smoke bombs, brought M-80s, one of their guys came with a bike lock and was bashing several people over the head with it.

01:41:27.000 Regular people who get invited are meant to create a mass the police can't handle, and it's designed to indoctrinate.

01:41:33.000 So what they'll do is they'll say, peaceful protest, everybody come.

01:41:37.000 Then the direct action group has the yellow organizers.

01:41:40.000 These are people who will be in the front line with the cops yelling at them.

01:41:44.000 And we'll be directing the mass.

01:41:45.000 And then the red actors, the red group, are usually crowded around in the centers.

01:41:50.000 And they'll throw bricks, throw M-80s, throw less so Molotovs.

01:41:54.000 We don't see a lot of Molotovs in the United States, though it did happen in the George Floyd riots.

01:41:58.000 Or they will directly barricade themselves to buildings they expect to get arrested.

01:42:03.000 The goal is to create chaos.

01:42:06.000 So the mass of regular people have no idea what's going on.

01:42:10.000 It's the green zone.

01:42:12.000 It's the biggest is to cover up what they're doing.

01:42:15.000 They'll say, hey, everybody, wear masks.

01:42:17.000 Show up wearing a hoodie in solidarity.

01:42:18.000 That way the police can't identify who the bad actors are.

01:42:21.000 The other reason they do it is that they intentionally will start a fight with the cops.

01:42:25.000 So the cops arrest all these run-of-the-mill college students.

01:42:27.000 That way they go to jail, are terrified.

01:42:30.000 And then while in jail, the cultists, far leftists will say, see, aren't cops evil?

01:42:35.000 Look what they're doing to you.

01:42:36.000 You didn't even do anything wrong.

01:42:37.000 You were peacefully protesting.

01:42:39.000 That's unconstitutional. 0.70

01:42:40.000 They're fascists. 0.87

01:42:41.000 I know.

01:42:42.000 Let's all sing songs together.

01:42:43.000 Not kidding.

01:42:44.000 Literally how they do it.

01:42:45.000 Then they're all singing together.

01:42:47.000 Then when they're finally being let go, they say, here's my phone number.

01:42:49.000 Call me.

01:42:50.000 Let's hang out.

01:42:51.000 And that's how they indoctrinate young people into their cult.

01:42:54.000 They intentionally get them arrested.

01:42:56.000 They plan.

01:42:57.000 I will say this to all the young people out there.

01:42:58.000 They want you to get arrested.

01:43:00.000 They will instigate a fight with the cops so the cops arrest you and then look you in the eyes and say, look how evil they are for doing this.

01:43:07.000 That's the game they play.

01:43:09.000 We're going to go to Super Chat, so smash the like button.

01:43:11.000 Share the show with everyone you know.

01:43:13.000 How about this?

01:43:14.000 For my birthday, go to timcastpremium.com and sign up for Rumble Premium using promo code TIM10 and watch the uncensored members-only call-in show.

01:43:23.000 And also, go to timcast.com, click Join Us, download Discord, get involved in the Discord server.

01:43:32.000 Over 20,000 people.

01:43:33.000 Don't just be a passive listener, which is fine.

01:43:36.000 I'm not trying to drag you.

01:43:37.000 But you can be an active participant in the world, in the news, by joining in and having these conversations.

01:43:42.000 And before you know it, you might find yourself working with one of these big shows, being on a podcast.

01:43:48.000 The Culture War show is being set up.

01:43:50.000 And maybe you, as a member of the Discord, will be sitting here at this table debating Phil and Shane and me and who knows?

01:43:56.000 Who knows who else?

01:43:57.000 We wanted to get Luke Beasley and Enrique Atario because he had those choice words about him.

01:44:03.000 He has refused.

01:44:04.000 Luke refused?

01:44:06.000 Yeah, Luke refused.

01:44:07.000 Oh, yeah.

01:44:07.000 Enrique's like, I'll talk to anybody.

01:44:09.000 But Luke said no.

01:44:10.000 That's a bummer.

01:44:11.000 I don't think Luke actually has the capabilities to actually talk with the J6er. 1.00

01:44:16.000 Yeah.

01:44:16.000 So we said, well, maybe is there any other subject you'd be willing to talk about?

01:44:19.000 Because we'd still like to have a debate.

01:44:20.000 But it is funny to me that these leftists will never do it.

01:44:25.000 They run and they hide.

01:44:27.000 Conservatives won't stop banging on the door, telling us, hey, let us in.

01:44:30.000 We want to come on the show.

01:44:31.000 Liberals are like, no, wait, we can't handle Google.

01:44:34.000 You bring, like, Kyle Kalinske on here, you sit him in that chair, and, like, I'll be like, Kyle, I won't debate you.

01:44:39.000 I'll just Google search what you're saying, and what do you find?

01:44:42.000 Everything you're saying is wrong.

01:44:43.000 Okay, not everything, but a lot of it.

01:44:45.000 And you're like, that's weird, Google says something else.

01:44:47.000 I ain't gonna debate you.

01:44:47.000 I'll just Google it.

01:44:49.000 Anyway, let's grab some Super Chats.

01:44:52.000 Let's go.

01:44:54.000 Greg Cutler says, I Super Chatted $100 last year, suggesting Ben Davidson as a guest.

01:44:58.000 Fulfilled!

01:44:59.000 Epic.

01:45:01.000 Andre says, no Rumble stream.

01:45:03.000 We are live on Rumble, baby.

01:45:05.000 Nearly 20,000 viewers on Rumble.

01:45:07.000 40,000 on YouTube.

01:45:09.000 Look at that.

01:45:10.000 Rumble's getting big.

01:45:12.000 Philosopher Stone says, hypothetical question for you guys.

01:45:14.000 If you had to delete either pizza or video games from the Earth forever, which would you choose?

01:45:19.000 Video games.

01:45:21.000 Video games.

01:45:21.000 Nah, pizza.

01:45:23.000 Pizza.

01:45:24.000 Video games.

01:45:25.000 Well, pizza is largely an unhealthy...

01:45:29.000 High-carb food.

01:45:31.000 And it is delicious.

01:45:33.000 If made right, the question then becomes, pizza is a nebulous description?

01:45:38.000 Do you mean just like a New York-style cheese?

01:45:41.000 Are we talking about like an Italian focaccia with zucchini?

01:45:45.000 Deep dish?

01:45:46.000 All flatbreads?

01:45:47.000 Yeah, all flatbreads.

01:45:48.000 What if it's just like bread with olive oil and mozzarella slices on top?

01:45:52.000 Right, so if you're just basically saying New York-style...

01:45:55.000 As we know, like Papa John's, Domino's, pizza, all gone.

01:45:58.000 I say pizza.

01:45:59.000 It's bad for you.

01:46:00.000 And the important thing is video games may be...

01:46:04.000 And it's not like I want to ban pizza.

01:46:07.000 I'd like both of them to exist.

01:46:08.000 But video games are actually really good for keeping the mind sharp, for hand-eye coordination.

01:46:13.000 And we've already seen that many of the people who are physically fit and play video games have shown lower signs of mental aging, which makes sense.

01:46:23.000 So, what is it called, Phil?

01:46:25.000 Sarcopenia?

01:46:25.000 Is that it?

01:46:26.000 Age-related muscle loss?

01:46:28.000 After, what, like 30 or something?

01:46:30.000 35?

01:46:31.000 I think it's actually after, like, 40. 40?

01:46:34.000 Your muscles just start disappearing.

01:46:36.000 I think, for the most part, it's if you don't use it, you lose it.

01:46:42.000 The same is true for your brain. 0.98

01:46:43.000 So, people who play video games, whatever it may be, the other problem I have with video games is that not all video games are, like, stupid, gore, mindless, zombie stuff. 0.99

01:46:51.000 Civilization's fantastic. 0.93

01:46:53.000 Educational.

01:46:53.000 Teach kids.

01:46:54.000 Not the new one.

01:46:55.000 Civ 7, everyone hates.

01:46:56.000 But we don't need pizza.

01:46:59.000 You know what I mean?

01:47:00.000 Greasy, heavy carbs, a lot of sugar in the sauce.

01:47:03.000 It's okay.

01:47:04.000 You can make it right if you put, like, whey in the flour to get it more protein-dense, maybe.

01:47:09.000 But, you know, if I had to make a choice, I'd say video games can be educational.

01:47:13.000 So, there are some video games like that.

01:47:16.000 I think that...

01:47:17.000 Just like with the pizza discussion, there could be a more nuanced discussion about video games.

01:47:22.000 Because there are some video games, it does the same thing to your brain as watching pornography.

01:47:28.000 You know?

01:47:29.000 In terms of the quick dopamine hit, like dopamine sickness, like rapid...

01:47:35.000 So does pizza.

01:47:37.000 It does.

01:47:38.000 So that's why it's...

01:47:39.000 And the other thing too is video game is very vague as well.

01:47:43.000 It is, yeah.

01:47:44.000 So it's like you're talking about like...

01:47:45.000 Console games and stuff, like no more Baldur's Gate or whatever.

01:47:48.000 Yeah, Tetris.

01:47:49.000 But what about Polybridge?

01:47:51.000 That game's amazing.

01:47:51.000 You ever play it?

01:47:52.000 No.

01:47:52.000 It's an engineering game where there'll be a little truck and a little car, and it's like, here's how much wood you have.

01:47:57.000 Build a bridge.

01:47:57.000 And then you're trying to design a bridge.

01:48:00.000 What I love about those games is that I always try to make the worst imaginable structures.

01:48:05.000 Because sometimes it's easy to like, okay, I can build a suspension bridge.

01:48:08.000 And you put two posts, then you secure them, and you put wires to the bridge, and it holds it up.

01:48:12.000 And I'm like, that's boring.

01:48:13.000 I want to make the weirdest design imaginable that works for some reason.

01:48:17.000 And then you press play, and the little car will drive across it.

01:48:19.000 That game is great for kids.

01:48:21.000 Kids should be playing it.

01:48:22.000 I think I played that in middle school, actually.

01:48:24.000 I don't know if they had PolyBridge back then.

01:48:26.000 They had something like that.

01:48:28.000 It may have been called Bridge Builder back then.

01:48:31.000 I think it was called Bridge Builder.

01:48:32.000 And we played it in shop class.

01:48:35.000 I just soloed Zero Hour today for the first time.

01:48:39.000 That's a D2 game.

01:48:42.000 I got avowed.

01:48:44.000 I am unenthused.

01:48:47.000 Aw, drag. 1.00

01:48:48.000 Yeah.

01:48:49.000 I mean, I've been playing it a little bit, but I just...

01:48:51.000 I'm bored.

01:48:54.000 I don't know.

01:48:54.000 It's like I'm in the first area and I'm just like rolling my eyes.

01:48:59.000 You know?

01:49:00.000 Last game I played was Sonic.

01:49:02.000 Baldur's Gate was epic.

01:49:04.000 Sonic.

01:49:05.000 I like Sonic the Hedgehog.

01:49:08.000 The best game I've played in a very, very long time is Baldur's Gate 3. Really, just absolutely amazing game.

01:49:14.000 Third-person adventure, right?

01:49:16.000 Yeah, RPG, turn-based, and then Avowed is...

01:49:21.000 I don't know, it's an Obsidian game, I think.

01:49:24.000 And you have, like, an axe and a bow and arrow or whatever, and I'm just like, blech.

01:49:29.000 I really hate the action-oriented...

01:49:33.000 First-person games.

01:49:34.000 Like, if you're gonna make me jump and climb, I don't want to play first-person.

01:49:38.000 It's just, it's annoying to play with controller.

01:49:41.000 Yeah.

01:49:41.000 I disagree.

01:49:43.000 Where you, like, it's first-person, but you have to climb stuff?

01:49:46.000 You don't even know if you can climb it, and then you fall, and you're like, okay.

01:49:48.000 First person?

01:49:49.000 That's literally the game that I played today.

01:49:52.000 Destiny 2 is first person shooter.

01:49:54.000 Yeah, but you're not climbing things.

01:49:57.000 There's a bunch of platforming and stuff in Zero Hour.

01:50:00.000 In Destiny, you have double jumps and triple jumps and you have air dashes and stuff.

01:50:04.000 That's fine.

01:50:05.000 But avowed is literally jump-climb.

01:50:08.000 And then if you jump to the right height, the hands come up and pull automatically.

01:50:12.000 Nah, throw it out.

01:50:14.000 Nah, I don't like it.

01:50:16.000 Horizon Zero Dawn is incredible.

01:50:18.000 And Horizon Forbidden West.

01:50:20.000 Big fan.

01:50:21.000 Alright, let's go!

01:50:22.000 What do we got here?

01:50:24.000 Anti-war nobody says, Tim, you should have Louis J. Gomez on the culture war to debate banning pitbulls.

01:50:29.000 They are 20% of the dog population and are responsible for 66% of the fatal attacks.

01:50:35.000 Yep.

01:50:36.000 That would be great.

01:50:37.000 There was a...

01:50:38.000 There's stories like this all the time.

01:50:39.000 There was a woman who had two pitbulls and there was, like, nothing abusive.

01:50:44.000 Everything was normal.

01:50:45.000 They were in the backyard.

01:50:45.000 She walked outside.

01:50:46.000 They killed her.

01:50:47.000 She did.

01:50:48.000 And they were just like, we don't know why.

01:50:51.000 You guys understand why some people don't want to have the conversation about a certain segment of a species being a problem and needing to be gotten rid of?

01:51:02.000 You understand why humans don't want to have that conversation, right?

01:51:05.000 Well, because humans are thinking individuals who can make rational thought.

01:51:10.000 Wild animals are different, and animals are very different.

01:51:13.000 So that's why when people are like, oh, we're going to compare dogs to race, well, you can't.

01:51:18.000 Because it's just not real.

01:51:22.000 There's too many factors in human populations.

01:51:24.000 Here's an example.

01:51:26.000 Everyone goes to what they call the 1350. They say in the United States, despite making up 13% of the population, the black population is responsible for 50% of violent crimes. 0.97

01:51:34.000 And it's just like, the things that are attached to that are so spattered and wild that you can't get accurate data sets.

01:51:41.000 For instance, You can't compare Somalis to Haitians. 0.62

01:51:44.000 They're two different distinct ethnic groups and they have different heights.

01:51:48.000 They have different average weights and completely different crime rates, but they're both considered black.

01:51:52.000 So the issue with the United States that people try to bring this up is it's like, well, you can't do that.

01:51:57.000 I can't stand the race realists because they're like, look, man, the history of the United States, the ethnic differences and backgrounds between all different people.

01:52:08.000 It is more likely in the short-term socioeconomic factors and cultural issues.

01:52:13.000 Chicago's violent crime, which is heavily racialized, is totally cultural and not racial.

01:52:17.000 That's why there are white people in a minority in a black neighborhood that are still part of the gangs and shooting people. 1.00

01:52:23.000 Although they're likely going to get targeted for gang violence because race does play a role. 0.89

01:52:28.000 But anyway, long story short, as I always just say, like...

01:52:31.000 You can't look at the wealthy Nigerians who immigrated to the United States and have extremely low rates of violent crime, extremely high incomes, and then say it's a race thing.

01:52:40.000 Because it's like, I mean, maybe there's a component of it, but it is very different than, like, dogs who were bred specifically to be violent, you know what I mean?

01:52:49.000 Or to fight in pits.

01:52:51.000 I mean, I think one could make the argument.

01:52:57.000 I would say that one could make the argument that evolution.

01:53:02.000 So, like I said, if you say Asian, for instance, what does that mean?

01:53:07.000 And so, in the United States, it means Southeast Asian, but not Indian or Middle Eastern.

01:53:12.000 If you go to the UK, you say Asian.

01:53:14.000 People typically think China, Japan, even though they're totally forgetting, like, you know, famously with King of the Hill, Laos, or Vietnam.

01:53:21.000 But in the media and in their government, they mean people from India, and they mean literally the Asian entire continent, which includes Russians.

01:53:28.000 Yeah.

01:53:29.000 The problem with the argument then becomes, well, of course we recognize evolution, set certain characteristics through genetics with various people.

01:53:36.000 The Scandinavians were ruthlessly violent for some period, and now they're dainty, still very tall, but very weak and effeminate, which is kind of funny. 1.00

01:53:45.000 But then once again, Scandinavians and Ukrainians are very different people, despite both being white.

01:53:52.000 You're going to find different crime rates among these different groups. 0.55

01:53:55.000 Ukraine crime is extremely high.

01:53:56.000 Swedish crime is... 1.00

01:53:57.000 Extremely low, but they're both white. 1.00

01:53:59.000 So we're not going to say white is the underlying factor.

01:54:02.000 That's the challenge I have with the race realists, is they're like, all white people as a single group is like, I don't know, man, why don't you go take a look at Northern Ireland and see the crime there? 0.95

01:54:10.000 And like, you know what I mean?

01:54:12.000 And then, you know, I don't think, I'm sort of the middle of the road on this one.

01:54:20.000 The race realists largely are like, race is deterministic.

01:54:23.000 I think nature and nurture is both.

01:54:25.000 50-50.

01:54:26.000 So there have been a bunch of studies on this one.

01:54:29.000 Obviously, Charles Murray and the bell curve is like taboo.

01:54:31.000 For a while, ChatGPT wouldn't even let you talk about it.

01:54:34.000 Unreal.

01:54:35.000 But I think nurture largely overwhelms nature, though nature plays a significant role.

01:54:42.000 So anyway, but we don't need to harp on that.

01:54:44.000 We can talk a bit more about the uncensored.

01:54:46.000 I don't want to have one rumble rant hog the entire conversation.

01:54:51.000 All right, let's go.

01:54:52.000 Rue Actual says, but rolling Afghanistan would have been really bad optics and bad for profit margins.

01:54:58.000 Perhaps.

01:55:00.000 K. Daniels says, I'm making a picture of Metallica, but every member is J.D. Vance.

01:55:04.000 Bless you.

01:55:04.000 Bless you for doing so.

01:55:06.000 I think I saw a Pantera of all J.D. Vance today.

01:55:11.000 Doug Dimidome says, 19 Hz is the ghost frequency.

01:55:14.000 They did a study where a band played for three days, and on random songs they played a 19 Hz undertone.

01:55:20.000 People reported feeling uneasy or spine-tingling during it.

01:55:24.000 I've heard a lot of stories where they, like, universities did studies with ultra-low frequencies, and they would put people in, like, dark stairway corridors and then blast it, and people felt like it was haunted.

01:55:35.000 You know?

01:55:36.000 And what about the magnet helmet that make people feel God?

01:55:40.000 That's right.

01:55:41.000 You hear about that one?

01:55:41.000 Yeah.

01:55:42.000 They put a giant helmet on people with, like, magnets, and then blasted their brains with super powerful magnets, and they said they felt the presence of God.

01:55:50.000 But wouldn't, like, couldn't you rip the iron out of someone's skull or something?

01:55:54.000 I mean, that sounds...

01:55:55.000 Out of their blood?

01:55:56.000 I don't know.

01:55:57.000 I guess not.

01:55:57.000 I think the actual, like, you have a very, very, very small amount of iron in your blood.

01:56:03.000 I mean, it's there, but it's a very small amount.

01:56:06.000 Did you ever take a magnet to a bowl of cereal?

01:56:09.000 You can literally pull the iron out of it.

01:56:11.000 Really?

01:56:11.000 Yeah.

01:56:12.000 I want to try that now.

01:56:13.000 Yeah, get like some cornflakes or frosted flakes or something.

01:56:15.000 Like, Google it because it's probably a better cereal.

01:56:16.000 And you run a big magnet around it and you'll see the iron start to pull off the...

01:56:21.000 Wow.

01:56:22.000 Yep.

01:56:22.000 Because they put nutritional iron in Fortified, I believe it's called.

01:56:29.000 What have we here?

01:56:32.000 Skin says between January 21st of 25 and March 11th, there have been approximately 52 to 54 plane crashes in the U.S. compared to about 87 for the same time period in 2021 from Grok.

01:56:45.000 But the question is, what kind of plane crashes?

01:56:48.000 What kind?

01:56:49.000 Are the planes slamming to the ground and flipping over with tons of injuries or deaths?

01:56:53.000 Or is it like the plane lands with the busted gear and everyone's fine and no one really talks about it?

01:56:58.000 So, my bigger concern is that...

01:57:01.000 At some point, a plane may have a landing gear break off, and the landing gear will then flow through a time stream and land on a house of a bedroom of a kid who just so happened to have gotten out of bed because a weird rabbit told him in the middle of the night and lured him out of his bed into the street.

01:57:18.000 Great soundtrack.

01:57:19.000 It's the best soundtrack ever.

01:57:20.000 Great soundtrack.

01:57:20.000 You know they had an alternative soundtrack to that and it was not good?

01:57:23.000 No.

01:57:23.000 Yeah.

01:57:24.000 And then they were like, let's just do 80s music, and it was the best soundtrack ever.

01:57:27.000 Donnie Darko was the reference.

01:57:28.000 I missed it.

01:57:30.000 If anyone understands what the movie's about, it's about a time loop that he decides to break by dying.

01:57:36.000 As one does.

01:57:37.000 And so a landing gear crashes in their house and they have no idea where it came from because when the plane was hitting turbulence, I think the plane crashes too, right?

01:57:45.000 I don't know if the plane crashes.

01:57:46.000 I just remember the thing falling.

01:57:47.000 The gear gets sucked through a time, through a wormhole and then lands on his house and they're like, no plane lost a gear.

01:57:52.000 Where did this come from?

01:57:53.000 But he sees the ghost of the rabbit he killed.

01:57:58.000 Who tells him to leave his house and then he's going to die in a month or something?

01:58:01.000 It's a weird movie.

01:58:02.000 It's great, though!

01:58:03.000 It's a great movie.

01:58:04.000 Yeah, we enjoy watching it.

01:58:05.000 Jake Gyllenhaal, right?

01:58:06.000 Yeah, and his sister.

01:58:08.000 Maggie.

01:58:08.000 Oh, that's right.

01:58:09.000 And who else is in it?

01:58:11.000 What's her face?

01:58:12.000 Who's in The Hunger Games?

01:58:14.000 I don't remember.

01:58:15.000 I can't remember.

01:58:15.000 No, it's before her.

01:58:16.000 Who?

01:58:17.000 He said Jennifer Lawrence, but I think she was too young at that point.

01:58:20.000 It's been impossibly Jennifer.

01:58:21.000 Unless she traveled through Time Warp.

01:58:22.000 No, it's not.

01:58:23.000 This is 2001. I never saw Donnie Darko.

01:58:24.000 You never saw Donnie Darko?

01:58:25.000 No.

01:58:25.000 It's Jenna Malone.

01:58:27.000 There you go.

01:58:28.000 Yep, yep, yep.

01:58:29.000 Hunger Games as well.

01:58:31.000 Yep.

01:58:32.000 Alright.

01:58:33.000 Weather World says, Tim, the magnetic poles are always shifting on a 23.5 degree wobble.

01:58:37.000 Current location is 85.762 north, 139.298 east.

01:58:43.000 The polar flip is the problem.

01:58:45.000 Uh-oh.

01:58:47.000 I agree.

01:58:48.000 That is the problem.

01:58:50.000 So, we'll talk a little bit about that, I suppose.

01:58:52.000 You know, everyone's gonna die or something.

01:58:54.000 We're all gonna go live underground.

01:58:56.000 With the moles in holes?

01:58:57.000 I hope not.

01:58:58.000 That doesn't sound very fun. 0.99

01:58:59.000 No, it sounds like it sucks. 0.99

01:59:01.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:59:02.000 Miserable.

01:59:03.000 I don't know.

01:59:04.000 It depends on how big the underground city could be.

01:59:07.000 Cornelius says, Ben, do you think the pole shifts could be the catalyst that causes Yellowstone caldera to erupt?

01:59:12.000 I'm no geologist, but it seems to me that the past eruptions line up with past pole shifts.

01:59:16.000 I couldn't disagree more.

01:59:18.000 You think it will not affect us?

01:59:19.000 No.

01:59:20.000 The last geomagnetic excursion was 6,000 years ago.

01:59:24.000 Before that, 12,000, 18,000, 24,000, 30,000, 36,000, 42,000, 48,000.

01:59:32.000 Yellowstone has not erupted.

01:59:33.000 When was the last shift?

01:59:36.000 The last magnetic pole shift?

01:59:38.000 Yeah.

01:59:38.000 6,000 years ago.

01:59:40.000 So it's every 12,000 years?

01:59:43.000 So basically there's a mini version every 6,000 years, but every other one is really bad.

01:59:48.000 So we're looking for a...

01:59:50.000 The one coming now is really bad.

01:59:51.000 Oh, it's the big one.

01:59:52.000 So 6,000 years ago was the mini.

01:59:53.000 Yeah, 6,000 years ago.

01:59:54.000 What Noah endured was the mini.

01:59:57.000 Ah.
