Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Kamala AND Trump Reportedly Joining Joe Rogan Claims Media w-WhatIfAltHist | Timcast IRL

00:00:00.000 I'm absolutely loving this arc right now.

00:00:21.000 Donald Trump is trying to earn female votes.

00:00:24.000 Kamala Harris is trying to earn male votes.

00:00:26.000 They're both having their difficulties.

00:00:28.000 And the rumors are now that both Trump and Kamala Harris are set to appear on Joe Rogan.

00:00:33.000 The funniest thing about this is that I'm imagining Joe Rogan at home being like, I have no idea what's going on.

00:00:39.000 But of course, because he's he's a king of the castle when it comes to podcasting with one of the largest audiences and the largest, probably moderate audience.

00:00:48.000 Everybody wants a piece of that pie. 0.95

00:00:51.000 So Kamala Harris's team all across the media is saying she's going to make an appearance or working on it, whatever it is, they're trying to make it seem like it's going to happen.

00:00:57.000 Trump said he believes he is going on Rogan's podcast.

00:01:00.000 I wonder how much of this is external media pressure to try and force Joe to accept this, because I'm sitting here being like, Joe ain't said nothing.

00:01:08.000 And Joe's show is very straightforward.

00:01:10.000 He tells you what he's doing.

00:01:11.000 There's no secrets, no secret plans or anything like that.

00:01:14.000 I kind of feel like if this was actually his idea, he would have come out of his show and say, yeah, we're talking to him.

00:01:19.000 Because he's going to be off the cuff and say, yeah, we're talking to the campaigns.

00:01:21.000 Maybe we'll have him on. But there's been nothing, so...

00:01:24.000 We'll talk about this and the underlying reasons why it's happening.

00:01:27.000 Kamala Harris is now down 13 points on polymarket.

00:01:31.000 I'm sorry, I think it's 16 points.

00:01:33.000 She's down 13, I believe, in aggregate for all betting markets.

00:01:36.000 And Donald Trump is now up 0.7 in the battleground polling aggregate for all states.

00:01:42.000 Trump's only losing one and barely.

00:01:44.000 So it is looking rather apocalyptic for Kamala Harris.

00:01:47.000 We'll talk about that. A bunch of other stories.

00:01:49.000 Border Patrol says if Kamala wins, they're out.

00:01:52.000 Mass exodus. And then we got this really funny story.

00:01:55.000 Oh, you're gonna love this.

00:01:57.000 A movie producer, a war game, hypothesizing what will happen if Trump loses and the military, factions of the military and the National Guard join him.

00:02:07.000 Well, they don't use the word Civil War, but we started off the show by saying it.

00:03:48.000 Thank you so much for having me.

00:03:49.000 It's a real pleasure. So you're a big YouTuber.

00:03:52.000 Do you want to explain who you are and what you do?

00:03:55.000 As I like to joke, I am a 23-year-old college dropout without credentials who bets against God.

00:04:02.000 And to unpack that...

00:04:04.000 That's a heck of an introduction. Thank you.

00:04:07.000 To unpack that, I'm from an hour outside Philly.

00:04:10.000 I'm 23 years old. I dropped out of school.

00:04:13.000 And I've been doing this channel for 10 years.

00:04:15.000 I started on my 13th birthday.

00:04:19.000 making alternate history content like what if the Nazis won the Civil War and what if the South won World War II and then over time we moved over into anthropology and geopolitics and philosophy and history and that stuff and so trying to look at the patterns in history to predict the future how societies work all that stuff the thing I'm most known for is my prediction that America will spiral into an election into a civil war or a revolution within the next election.

00:04:49.000 And I know that's something you've been on for years, so I'm sure it'll be of interest to you and your audience.

00:04:54.000 We should have a civil war off and see who can say civil war the most.

00:04:57.000 I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Yeah, you have a bunch of really great in-depth analysis.

00:05:02.000 And I think, you know, for me going on the surface and saying like, here's a news article and I'll give you my opinion.

00:05:07.000 You've done like a deep dive in the historical precedent of what, you know, I think you had one really big video where you talked about listless young men.

00:05:14.000 So we're going to get into that because we do have a story that just dropped about the predictions of what happens in less than three months.

00:05:21.000 Yo, it's 21 days to the election.

00:05:23.000 Yeah. Oh boy, I'm excited.

00:05:25.000 Anyway, thanks for hanging out.

00:05:26.000 We got Phil hanging out. Hello everybody, my name is Phil Abonte.

00:05:29.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains.

00:05:31.000 I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.

00:05:34.000 Hello, Hannah Claire. Hi!

00:05:36.000 It's good to see you both. I'm glad you could join us tonight.

00:05:38.000 I'm Hannah Claire Brimlow. Let's get started.

00:05:40.000 Here's the first story from the Post Millennial.

00:05:42.000 Joe Rogan rumored to be in talks to host Kamala Harris on podcast.

00:05:47.000 In fact, it's not just Kamala Harris.

00:05:49.000 Ford, I'm sorry, Forbes says Trump and Harris may appear on Rogan on Joe Rogan's podcast despite his harsh comments about both.

00:05:56.000 Well, that just explains why he should host them.

00:05:58.000 You know, it's fascinating that this story, I think, warrants a lead.

00:06:02.000 Because we have begged for this.

00:06:04.000 It feels like 2020 was a black hole where the things that many of us were saying and asking for went unanswered and only now are starting to be answered.

00:06:14.000 For instance, I had said, and it wasn't just my opinion, it was the American conservative, I think it was Pat Buchanan, saying Trump should appoint Tulsi Gabbard for national security or national security advisor or some position.

00:06:25.000 And I said, yes, because I'm a big fan.

00:06:29.000 We also have been saying endlessly, everybody, that Joe Rogan should be hosting some kind of political debate because we trust him and we know he's going to give us straightforward responses and answers to try and be fair in this breakdown.

00:06:41.000 Well, now, Tulsi Gabbard is joining the Trump transition team and will be a part of his administration.

00:06:46.000 And the rumors are that Joe Rogan will be hosting Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.

00:06:50.000 The question I have is, while the media keeps making these claims...

00:06:55.000 Joe ain't said nothing. So I can only imagine Joe's like sitting back, you know, he's working out, smoking a cigar, playing pool or something, and then someone hits him up, be like, hey, Joe, are you doing this?

00:07:04.000 He's like, bro, I have no idea what you're talking about.

00:07:05.000 What are these crazy people saying?

00:07:08.000 I don't even know. I can totally hear it. 0.93

00:07:10.000 I feel like he's going to his book or being like, what did you promise these people?

00:07:14.000 I mean, it is interesting that theoretically this could just be social pressure because there was a backlash when he said, you know, I'm not going to have Donald Trump on.

00:07:22.000 I think he made a statement basically saying he didn't want to delve into it.

00:07:25.000 And there were a lot of Trump people who had a very strong reaction to it.

00:07:31.000 I don't think this is going to happen for two reasons.

00:07:35.000 The first is that Joe, as Tim said, never endorsed this.

00:07:39.000 It's one of those things where this is just the public doing what the public does and making up jabberings that they want to hear. 0.94

00:07:47.000 The public just says crap and 90 percent of it never happens. 0.95

00:07:51.000 And secondly, Kamala's team would never put her on a podcast with Joe Rogan because she lacks the verbal ability to look good. 1.00

00:07:59.000 Kamala – I don't think she's a completely stupid person. 1.00

00:08:02.000 Her verbal ability is not very good though. 0.99

00:08:03.000 And so in a podcast like Joe Rogan, which is not – even if Joe tried to be very friendly to her, his framing is not friendly enough to her.

00:08:12.000 And it would just make her look very, very bad.

00:08:15.000 And her team knows that.

00:08:16.000 And they're very risk-averse in their strategy.

00:08:20.000 Yeah, it is fascinating, but I think, I love the way you explained it, the jabberings of the public that just say things that never happen.

00:08:27.000 That is true, isn't it?

00:08:29.000 The people go on TV, I mean, even me, I'll be on here and I'll be like, you know, here's what I think, and then how much of this stuff actually happens, how exciting is real life?

00:08:37.000 But come on, we gotta be hopeful, right?

00:08:39.000 I mean, you're right.

00:08:42.000 Kamala Harris' team would be insane to put her on Joe Rogan. 1.00

00:08:45.000 I am hoping they put her on Joe Rogan.

00:08:47.000 Yeah, her polls will drop 10 points overnight if she goes on Rogan's show. 1.00

00:08:52.000 But here's the issue. Donald Trump said on the Nelk Boys podcast that...

00:08:56.000 I don't know if he said definitively he is doing it.

00:08:58.000 He says, I think we are doing it, didn't he?

00:09:00.000 Yeah, he said it. And I wonder if his team has just been talking with Joe saying, like, hey, come on, like, we're going to do this.

00:09:07.000 Because I think Joe mentioned at one point he'd be really interested to have that conversation.

00:09:11.000 He did intimate a possibility or an interest.

00:09:14.000 Yeah. Kamala Harris would have no choice but to go on his show. 1.00

00:09:17.000 If Trump goes on Rogan, which is Everest of public...

00:09:23.000 I mean, look, man...

00:09:26.000 I said it before. Joe often says he's just some dumb guy, but he's a really, really great interviewer and he's inquisitive. 0.96

00:09:32.000 So he's not going to sit there and let you speak BS. And that's why people trust him. 0.98

00:09:37.000 And that's what people have been saying. We want a Joe Rogan moderated debate.

00:09:40.000 Trump's got no problem doing this.

00:09:42.000 Joe can sit there and say to Trump, what about this, that and otherwise?

00:09:44.000 And Trump is going to bounce, deflect and answer the questions with no problem.

00:09:48.000 Kamala can't do that. How can she—I don't see a path forward if Trump—and this is what Rogan said last time, he doesn't want to help Trump.

00:09:56.000 If Trump goes on Rogan, Kamala, it's over.

00:10:00.000 Yeah. I think—I mean, I do think that Kamala Harris can't do the— Can't handle two or three hours with Joe Rogan talking. 0.96

00:10:09.000 She's really bad when she's off teleprompter.

00:10:14.000 Significantly bad. I don't see her wanting to sit down.

00:10:18.000 It does make sense if she were competent because that would be the forum to attract male voters, which is where she's lagging significantly. 1.00

00:10:27.000 But the risk of putting her in front of Joe Rogan is far too high. 0.99

00:10:32.000 I mean, the same Joe Rogan that Michael Malice was sitting across and said that if you mock her, it's ableist because she's a retard. 0.99

00:10:41.000 I sit in that chair. 0.99

00:10:43.000 I'll go, I'll go. I was just going to say, I think that the challenge is the personality mesh, right?

00:10:49.000 And what the person is comfortable doing.

00:10:52.000 And we know that Trump is just generally a more comfortable speaker.

00:10:56.000 He's comfortable speaking in small groups, one-on-one, at rallies, and she doesn't seem to have that.

00:11:01.000 I don't know how many of you, I mean, you probably all watched the Elon Musk appearance on Joe Rogan all those years ago.

00:11:06.000 But, you know, Elon Musk is sort of I think?

00:11:29.000 He's fine with that. He probably doesn't need any coaxing.

00:11:32.000 Even if Joe Rogan wasn't aggressive towards Kamala Harrison anyway, I think she would always be in politician mode and she would never shift into the authentic conversation that Joe Rogan's audience, you know, look for when they're listening to his podcast.

00:11:45.000 So, you know, Phil mentioned Kamala needing those male voters.

00:11:48.000 So I have to do it.

00:11:49.000 I went on Piers Morgan today, and I see a lot of people are chatting about it.

00:11:53.000 And there was this lady on the show. 1.00

00:11:57.000 I don't know who she is. And she made this comment to me. 0.97

00:11:59.000 I mean, she was really obsessed with me.

00:12:00.000 It was kind of nuts. You should watch it.

00:12:02.000 It was really fun. Shout out to Piers Morgan.

00:12:03.000 And she made a comment about how we as men are not allowed to define what masculinity is because we criticized the men for Harris or whatever ad.

00:12:13.000 That was real cringe. And I'm just like, I think it was, was it Vinny from PBD, who was just like, this is why, I think it was him, he said, this is why men aren't voting Democrat.

00:12:23.000 Because it's these angry women who call men racist misogynists who aren't allowed to define masculinity. 1.00

00:12:29.000 Yo, I gotta tell you, I was, I don't know if you guys saw the Bill Maher clip with Buck Sexton.

00:12:34.000 And it's amazing that I'm just – I am clapping and cheering, saying thank you for these leftist pundits.

00:12:41.000 This woman's on the show, on Bill Maher's show, and Buck Sexton makes the point that there are men who feel aggrieved, and her response is, well, now you get to – she said something like, now you get to experience the inequities that women have felt.

00:12:55.000 And he's like – He's like, this is not this is going to cost you voters.

00:12:59.000 Men are saying I'm suffering in responses.

00:13:01.000 Oh, well, now you get it.

00:13:03.000 And then her response to him was, if we are going to have progress, men, particularly white men, are going to feel left behind.

00:13:12.000 And that is what progress means. 0.94

00:13:13.000 And I was like, holy crap, Kamala Harris is going to lose every single dude because they keep doing his interviews. 1.00

00:13:21.000 They keep doubling down on these talking points. 0.77

00:13:23.000 Well, I mean, that's the general consensus from the left now. 0.81

00:13:29.000 At least the politically active left, if you're quote-unquote woke, the general consensus is white men are the problem and they must sit in their discomfort.

00:13:40.000 These are things that are said in the literature by people like Robin DiAngelo and stuff. 0.61

00:13:47.000 White men must sit in their discomforts And they're not to be consoled. 1.00

00:13:53.000 The point is to make them feel bad. 0.92

00:13:55.000 The point is to have them be unhappy.

00:13:57.000 And people are going to reject that.

00:14:00.000 Any right-thinking person that is not motivated by malice is going to say, that is bad and wrong.

00:14:08.000 You know, what's funny is when this woman was telling me that men can't define...

00:14:12.000 It's like you aren't allowed to define what masculinity is.

00:14:14.000 And I was like, you know, that ad was clearly female-coded.

00:14:18.000 It was written by women for men.

00:14:21.000 And most men are going to look at that and be like, this doesn't in any way relate to my experiences.

00:14:28.000 And you know what I think is really important when defining masculinity, men know it.

00:14:34.000 Not every single man, but men know it.

00:14:36.000 That's why there are leaders.

00:14:37.000 That's why there's hierarchy.

00:14:39.000 That's why there are men who follow other men.

00:14:41.000 There was this really great 4chan post, it's inspiring, it is, and it was this fat dude and he was saying that he went to a gym and he was really self-conscious, he was overweight, but he wanted to make a difference.

00:14:52.000 And he sees this super tall, like ripped gym bro walk by and immediately start giving him and pointers and say here's how you do the weights.

00:14:59.000 Like, without question, here's how you do the lifts.

00:15:01.000 Here's how you do the weights. I want to see this many.

00:15:03.000 You can get it, bro. Hey, man, I'll see you tomorrow.

00:15:05.000 It's leg day. And then he was like, is this what it feels to have a king?

00:15:08.000 I will serve you. This dude was trying to better himself, and this guy came and said, I'm going to help you be better.

00:15:15.000 And that's what it felt like.

00:15:16.000 Guys, recognize it.

00:15:17.000 You look up to—there's somebody doing something that you see as honorable, that you want to be that— And when they make this ad where it's like, I'm not scared of women, it's like, yeah, guys don't relate to that.

00:15:27.000 They want to make an ad.

00:15:29.000 I'll tell you this. I don't know that you can make an ad that would make Kamala Harris look good in the eyes of men. 0.99

00:15:35.000 I just really don't. But they'd be better off making...

00:15:39.000 Here's what you do.

00:15:41.000 Here's how it starts. There's a guy farming.

00:15:43.000 He's just a peasant farmer.

00:15:45.000 And then Roman legion roll right up on horseback and they say, you are needed to lead us.

00:15:51.000 War is coming. He jumps on the horse and he goes.

00:15:53.000 He leads them to victory and they say, you have served admirably.

00:15:57.000 Will you retain these powers and rule?

00:15:59.000 And he says, no. And then he goes back to his farm.

00:16:01.000 Kamala Harris, 2024. That's a way more effective ad, the story of Cincinnati's.

00:16:05.000 Instead of having a bunch of guys be like, I ain't scared of no woman.

00:16:07.000 You know, one of the things, like, I think that there are some inherent things about Kamala Harris that turns guys off.

00:16:14.000 Like, just the way that she calls her husband Dougie, like, in public, it doesn't seem respectful, and that makes men say, oh, I don't like that.

00:16:23.000 If she can call him Dougie, all she wants at home, like, they can have all the pet names they want, but in public, she should call him Doug, And allow him to not seem emasculated.

00:16:35.000 Because that's what Dougie sounds like. 0.95

00:16:37.000 And I guarantee there are people watching this that are like, oh, you're crazy, blah, blah, blah. 0.77

00:16:46.000 turned off by that kind of stuff in public.

00:16:48.000 You can have pet names in private, you can, like, it's perfectly fine, but there are certain ways that you want to be perceived, that men want to be, certain ways men want to be perceived in public, and they want to be respected by their significant other.

00:17:04.000 And other people will pick up on things that sound condescending, and something like Dougie sounds condescending.

00:17:11.000 Yes, she is the condescending high school principal who you know is not very good at her job. 1.00

00:17:15.000 Let's pull up this story from the New York Times.

00:17:17.000 Black voters drift from Democrats imperiling Harris's bid poll shows.

00:17:23.000 Dude, this is the New York Times, okay?

00:17:24.000 And so when the media comes out and says, you know, the corporate press—I understand the New York Times.

00:17:31.000 I mean, like, the Democrat media, MSNBC. No, it's not true.

00:17:35.000 It's not true. It's like, okay, well, I think there's something to that, right?

00:17:38.000 Republicans, and there have been model pundits who have said in 2016 Trump's going to win the black vote.

00:17:42.000 He didn't. They said in 2020 he's going to win the black vote.

00:17:44.000 He didn't. There's a lot of support right now, but— We're going to wait till Election Day, because I think it's fair to say that the record shows that we may see these signals in the press, but they didn't manifest.

00:17:56.000 To be fair, over the past several cycles, we have seen a massive drift from Democrats of black voters.

00:18:02.000 And what they're reporting now is this is the biggest shift.

00:18:06.000 Away from Democrats since, I think, like 1992 or whatever.

00:18:11.000 We have the biggest, for the first time since, or actually I think it's going way back, it's maybe like the first time in generations and decades the Republican Party is now larger than the Democratic Party.

00:18:21.000 There's a saying. I saw this in the Wall Street Journal several years ago, that if the Democrats cannot win at least 80% of the black community, they will lose.

00:18:33.000 And based on the numbers right now, 2024, the Democrats have 78%.

00:18:39.000 So theoretically, if those numbers hold into the election, the Democrats can't win by any stretch of the imagination.

00:18:46.000 I don't know.

00:19:01.000 Because as much as we are seeing a lot of young black men saying they're going to be voting for Donald Trump, the question is, are they just saying this?

00:19:08.000 Or are these young people just less likely to vote?

00:19:11.000 It's not a factor of being black.

00:19:12.000 It's a factor of being young.

00:19:13.000 Young people tend not to turn out.

00:19:15.000 You get young people on acts like Harry Sisson bragging up a big game about voting for Biden and then Kamala.

00:19:20.000 But then young people still don't turn out.

00:19:23.000 So I'm not entirely convinced, but I'm curious what you guys think.

00:19:27.000 I think of my home state Pennsylvania as an example, and people often forget the right and the left are coalitions of a lot of other different subgroups inside of it.

00:19:37.000 And so Pennsylvania doesn't have that many genuinely like woke people.

00:19:41.000 exist but the people in California or New York City who are genuinely really for very progressive social issues.

00:19:50.000 We found from studies there are only between 10 to 15 percent of America's population.

00:19:57.000 And what happens is if the black vote tilts slightly conservative – and I don't know if it's going to happen this election, but I've noticed a very seismic shift, especially for young black men in their culture towards the right.

00:20:11.000 You can see it with 50 Cent.

00:20:12.000 You can see it with all the red pill influencers like Myron Gaines, Andrew Tate, like Lil Pump's Not Black.

00:20:18.000 But there's this huge move of conservative rappers.

00:20:21.000 And I have a weird interest in pop culture.

00:20:24.000 This is one of the things people don't know about me.

00:20:26.000 But I was watching this video of this guy who's a Korean – he makes Korean jewelry for rappers and then one of the Island Boys.

00:20:34.000 And they were debating to their—and they were both Republicans.

00:20:36.000 And I thought this would not happen 10 years ago.

00:20:39.000 And so the point I'm trying to summarize here is that— The left actually doesn't give that much to most black men.

00:20:48.000 They give it to the black ruling class, and I can explain that point further, and then the black ruling class is able to co-opt the entire population. 0.98

00:20:56.000 But if you got even a relative portion of black young men, you would tilt every single state in the Rust Belt hard red because you look at Pennsylvania, you look at Ohio, you look at Michigan. 0.81

00:21:07.000 These are states where the white unions are already going, already went from blue to red. 0.82

00:21:12.000 If you got a certain part of the black population, every single state in the Rust Belt would be as red as Texas or South Carolina. 1.00

00:21:21.000 I think it's true. One of the things that gets pointed out a lot this election cycle is that Trump is down among white voters than he was in 2016 and 2020. 0.67

00:21:30.000 And so there is obviously a component to this election in particular where courting racial groups is going to be part of it.

00:21:37.000 true of most elections. Trump just has, and this is the Republicans in general now, has the opportunity to continue to gain among, let's say, black men or the black community at large, among Hispanic voters, and we're seeing these numbers play out, as well as white voters, and really secure a victory. This is not true of the DNC, and it's not true of Kamala Harris, in part because of the way they treat different racial groups.

00:22:01.000 I think they're ultimately a very racially motivated party, but not in a way that makes others feel empowered, and I think that they would never court the white vote the same way that Republicans are more comfortable doing.

00:22:12.000 And so they are dependent on smaller segments of the population, but they don't treat them with respect.

00:22:17.000 And that's, I think, what you're seeing with the fallout of Of black voters, especially the difference between the way black men vote and black women vote, they are motivated by different things. 0.95

00:22:27.000 And ultimately, Kamala Harris maybe can appeal to black women, but she is not able to appeal to black men.

00:22:33.000 And so we're getting this large scale scolding, which I don't think will work either, but they have no ability to pivot.

00:22:39.000 And to your point, I think some of that has to do with who's staffed.

00:22:42.000 I think that you're right.

00:22:43.000 A lot of people who are registered Democrats I think?

00:23:05.000 The attempts to attract, the ham-fisted attempts to attract male voters actually turns men off.

00:23:12.000 Because I know, how bad?

00:23:15.000 Do you think that it's just a little bit?

00:23:18.000 Because we're right-leaning people mostly around here.

00:23:21.000 Do you think that it's just the right-leaning people that are kind of like, ooh, we can see how clearly bad that is?

00:23:25.000 Or do you think that normal people that are politically unaffiliated, or do you think they're like, this actually turns me off?

00:23:32.000 I was saying that there's a lot of young men, particularly black men, who are saying they're voting for Trump simply because it is cringe to say you're voting for Kamala Harris.

00:23:41.000 Yes. It's not even about whether you actually want to vote for Donald Trump or not.

00:23:44.000 It's that if you walk up to your group of guy friends and you're like 20-something and you go, yo, I just voted for Kamala, they're going to bust out laughing and be like, what?

00:23:52.000 That's just like the weirdest thing to say.

00:23:54.000 Saying Trump is basically like saying like, I'm on the outside, I'm punk rock basically.

00:23:58.000 It's kind of funny because they don't accept that it is, but when all the major corporations and everyone lines up against them, you're like, yeah, I'm the bad guy, I'm the rebel.

00:24:07.000 And so you want to vote for Trump.

00:24:09.000 They say he's a threat to democracy, J6 and all that stuff. 1.00

00:24:12.000 So when they come out with these ads, and they got these guys and he's like, I eat carburetors for breakfast.

00:24:17.000 He said carburetor, right?

00:24:19.000 How many guys are fixing carburetors these days?

00:24:22.000 Yo, honest question.

00:24:24.000 What year was the last year cars had carburetors?

00:24:27.000 I get it. Like, farm equipment I think still does.

00:24:30.000 When I worked at O'Hare, they have tugs.

00:24:32.000 Tugs have carburetors. But do guys talk about fixing carburetors?

00:24:37.000 No. It's like someone Google searched how to be manly from the 1930s or from the 50s, and they were like, let's just roll with that.

00:24:48.000 Yeah. An important thing to keep in mind, and we had a recent...

00:24:51.000 There was a study that said that the average Republican has three times as accurate a psychological assessment as the average Democrat than vice versa.

00:25:03.000 And so in this study, when they asked Republicans and Democrats to predict the positions the other party had, the right had an assessment of the left's predictions three times as accurate as vice versa.

00:25:17.000 And you can discount a single study, but we found this consistently where – and this is dozens of studies – the right is able to understand how the left thinks and not vice versa.

00:25:28.000 And the way I imagine it with the left psychology – and I've made a bunch of videos about the psychology and anthropology behind the right and the left – is you should see the psychology of the people involved as closed emotional circuits where their social networks reward them for being completely emotional and hysterical.

00:25:47.000 And if you're not openly hysterical at minor things, you're a bad person.

00:25:51.000 So there are social networks that make them exceedingly emotional, but they also have these closed logical loops where they're right by definition.

00:25:58.000 So there's no actual interfacing with the world.

00:26:01.000 And so when people talk about the elite's I think that's true to a certain degree.

00:26:24.000 How other people think.

00:26:26.000 Oh, right.

00:26:27.000 They said back in the day, or back in the days and thousands of years ago, a dynasty in decline is ruled by harem girls, eunuchs, and bureaucrats.

00:26:35.000 We are at the harem girl, eunuch, and bureaucrat phase.

00:26:39.000 Harem girls is a good podcast name. 0.69

00:26:41.000 I'm going to write it down. Actually.

00:26:43.000 And there's multiple Chinese dynasties where the emperor didn't know when the capital was being destroyed.

00:26:50.000 Taiping Rebellion, the emperor was so drugged out of his mind out of opium.

00:26:54.000 He was a weird guy. This is an interesting story.

00:26:56.000 I'm not going to get into a weird guy.

00:26:58.000 He was living in his harem, drugged out in opium, and he had no comprehension that the war was happening.

00:27:02.000 That happened a couple times in Chinese history.

00:27:05.000 Wow. Yeah, we're there, man.

00:27:07.000 Yeah. You've got politicians that are gargling nonsense. 0.98

00:27:11.000 I think you make a great point. 0.86

00:27:13.000 These people have no capability to understand what other people are thinking.

00:27:16.000 And we see that's very indicative of the left.

00:27:18.000 There's a poll, a survey that I like to cite where it shows moderate voters in the United States get two-thirds of their news from the left and one-third from the right.

00:27:28.000 Conservatives get two-thirds from the right, one-third from the left.

00:27:30.000 And the liberal and left get 95% from the left.

00:27:34.000 Yep. And my response was, right. When she was out in the polls, she ducked the media and avoided the podcast.

00:27:59.000 Donald Trump was down in the polls, so he did a bunch of press, even adversarial.

00:28:03.000 He went on various corporate press outlets, much to the chagrin of many of supporters saying, you know, they're going to lie about you.

00:28:08.000 He's gone on the Nelk Boys. 1.00

00:28:09.000 He's gone on our show. He's gone on favorable media as well.

00:28:12.000 And now that he's up in the polls and dominating, he's avoiding the press, much like Kamala Harris didn't want to do a debate at first.

00:28:17.000 Then she did. The polls are shifting and now it's inverting. 0.77

00:28:21.000 Both parties have taken a similar strategy.

00:28:23.000 It is not unique to one side.

00:28:25.000 Now, I can say that because I know that this audience here watching the show is well aware of what Trump has done and what Kamala is now doing with the strategy there is.

00:28:33.000 But Wajahat, presumably like many of these liberal leftists, consume only MSNBC, CNN, and they're completely unaware of the world around them. 0.69

00:28:42.000 They live in a bubble. I mean, I think that's something that it would be nice if you could convince your liberal friends of.

00:28:53.000 But I feel like the left has a...

00:28:56.000 And when I say liberal, I mean more like progressives than liberals.

00:28:59.000 But the left has...

00:29:03.000 Has an emotional reaction about their politics far more than people on the right or even in the center.

00:29:12.000 They believe that the right is evil, which is why you get people saying, oh, Trump is Hitler.

00:29:18.000 And now today I've seen people talking about, you know, if Trump dies or if you vote for Trump, you might end up with J.D. Vance.

00:29:27.000 And the implication is J.D. Vance is worse than Trump.

00:29:31.000 But I thought Donald Trump was already super Hitler, so figure it out.

00:29:37.000 With J.D. Vance, we're up to like, it's like ultra, you know, giga Hitler.

00:29:41.000 And at some point, people that are not actually leftists have to start addressing the fact that like, wait a minute.

00:29:48.000 They're going to start quantifying units of Hitler.

00:29:51.000 So they're like, well, Trump is MegaHitler, which means that J.D. Vance is going to be Giga. 0.79

00:29:54.000 And then whoever J.D. Vance picks for his VP, maybe Vivek in the future, will be TerraHitler. 0.67

00:29:59.000 And then what comes after TerraBytes?

00:30:01.000 MegaHitler. So it's MegaHitler, then MegaHitler. 0.83

00:30:04.000 MegaHitler is the highest level. 0.93

00:30:06.000 There will be no highest because there's always someone next who will be worse.

00:30:11.000 It scales up. But that's the point.

00:30:13.000 You can only keep the intensity at a 10 for so long before people start to say, okay, we can't actually respect these opinions because they're just histrionic.

00:30:27.000 Really. And one of the great innovations that the DNC has not embraced is bringing on a new creative campaign strategist.

00:30:36.000 Because right now all of them run the same campaign, and this is true in pretty much every state at every level, which is...

00:30:44.000 Republicans are so evil that if you let them anywhere near legislation, they will destroy your lives.

00:30:49.000 And this is true of the state-level Republicans, of any Republican governors.

00:30:53.000 Any Democratic strategist is running the same campaign right now, which is why, since Trump is a known quantity, as soon as they announced J.D. Vance was the candidate, they were suddenly like, oh, someone new to fearmonger about.

00:31:04.000 And I've said it before.

00:31:05.000 I just think that the American public is fear-exhausted, and especially in the wake of things like, you know, serious hurricanes that leave people devastated.

00:31:14.000 This appeal to fear doesn't work, and so they're not going to get the same compliance they're used to.

00:31:19.000 Let's jump to this from Polymarket, ladies and gentlemen.

00:31:22.000 It's a good day to be Trump.

00:31:23.000 He is currently up 15.7 in the polymarket election forecast.

00:31:29.000 My friends, I am flabbergasted at this result.

00:31:32.000 This is insane. I mean, when we started the show, I think it was way lower than this.

00:31:37.000 Now we're getting the rounding up 16.

00:31:40.000 16-point lead for Donald Trump.

00:31:42.000 They're saying he's gonna take Pennsylvania.

00:31:44.000 He's up 12 points.

00:31:45.000 Again, this is polymarket.

00:31:47.000 This is betting.

00:31:49.000 This is people saying, I'm gonna put my money where my mouth is.

00:31:52.000 When we jump to the aggregate betting odds from RealClearPolitics, he's up 13.1 across all betting markets.

00:32:00.000 I think money talks and BS walks.

00:32:02.000 I think after Kamala Harris has done this string of press trying to improve her numbers because she was sinking, all it did was make it substantially worse. 1.00

00:32:10.000 If she goes on Joe Rogan, it's the apocalypse. 0.88

00:32:13.000 I don't see how she turns things around.

00:32:15.000 She went on with Charlemagne, the God, and I don't think it's going to do anything for her.

00:32:20.000 She's trying. Don't get me wrong.

00:32:22.000 But even right now, the top battleground states take a look at this.

00:32:24.000 Donald Trump is up 0.7 points across all battlegrounds.

00:32:28.000 If you take a look at the National, where Harris is up 1.3, at this time in 2020, Joe Biden was up 9.4.

00:32:38.000 Hillary Clinton was up 6.7, and she still lost.

00:32:42.000 It is looking very, very much like Donald Trump is going to win.

00:32:45.000 That being said, shadow campaign.

00:32:48.000 So y'all better get out and vote.

00:32:50.000 Because you look at this, you think Trump's going to win.

00:32:53.000 If you say Trump's going to win, he's going to lose.

00:32:55.000 So I'm going to tell you right now, that 15 point lead, 16 point lead that he's got makes it neck and neck.

00:33:00.000 The polls could be wrong, but you know there's going to be shenanigans.

00:33:04.000 You've got to swamp the vote.

00:33:05.000 That's what Trump's been saying. Everyone's got to go vote.

00:33:08.000 You've got to bring your friends and family to tell them, hey, you all got to go vote.

00:33:11.000 You've got to register to vote. Make sure because a deadline is coming up for a lot of places.

00:33:14.000 Many places already passed. You've got to go vote.

00:33:16.000 And then Trump's going to win if everybody goes vote.

00:33:18.000 But what do you think? Do you think these betting markets are good or what?

00:33:22.000 Or as someone super chatted, are the betting markets just the jabberings of the public that won't come true?

00:33:27.000 I publicly said yesterday that I think Trump's going to win.

00:33:30.000 I said that in my YouTube community notes.

00:33:32.000 I stand by that. And I say these things so that you know I'm not a charlatan because only by being in a place where you can publicly lose do you know if you're just making stuff up.

00:33:42.000 I think Trump's going to win.

00:33:43.000 I mean... I thought he would win for the last six months because just all of the current seems to flow in his favor.

00:33:53.000 Almost every new piece of news is something that makes Trump look better.

00:33:57.000 And almost every new piece of news is something that makes Kamala look worse. 1.00

00:34:01.000 And I mean, just if you look at actions, the left is clearly desperate and the right is clearly optimistic.

00:34:09.000 I think Trump's going to win.

00:34:11.000 Yeah. I think that these markets are important to look at because it's good to have the data.

00:34:19.000 But right now, I'm actually very skeptical of all polling.

00:34:23.000 And again, in part, it's because part of the country just got knocked out by this hurricane.

00:34:27.000 I mean, how are you polling people in North Carolina in the red counties where they don't have internet right now?

00:34:34.000 I think that we've known for a little while, I think it was something one of the major new polls put out, maybe this time, Sienna, that there are like 4% of voters that respond to polls right now say they're undecided.

00:34:44.000 And we know of those, actually it's more like 2% are truly, truly undecided.

00:34:49.000 The other two probably have an intention one way or the other.

00:34:53.000 I think one of the things that Kamala... 1.00

00:34:56.000 Is never going to be able to overcome and definitely not now this late in the game with so many things to your point working in Trump's favor is that she is up against the personality of a future American folk hero.

00:35:10.000 Even if you don't like Trump, he has a very distinct personality.

00:35:14.000 He's developed a very unique political movement.

00:35:17.000 And they can't just sort of drop Democrats into the same tired campaign and produce someone who becomes someone people are motivated to turn out for.

00:35:27.000 I mean, even if they put her on every cooking show in America and she made her collard greens, it's not enough time to make her endearing.

00:35:34.000 And if she was endearing, they would have done it by now.

00:35:37.000 So they have this sort of paper candidate with a bad platform.

00:35:40.000 That, you know, as she releases specifics, and I don't know if we're going to talk about the marijuana conversation today, but it makes people more irritated with her, whereas Trump gives specific, the media gets mad, but the American people listen.

00:35:52.000 And to me, I mean, you'll see this reflected in the opinion polls or in betting market odds where Trump is just more likable and there's no way she could overcome that.

00:36:03.000 The criticism right now is that Kamala's pitch to black men is free money and free drugs. 1.00

00:36:10.000 I mean, that is essentially the attempt, but it's just so disheartening that politicians on the left are blatantly trying to purchase votes.

00:36:23.000 Like, we'll give you free loans.

00:36:26.000 We will give you money.

00:36:28.000 It's as close to an offer of a direct cash payment as you can possibly get.

00:36:34.000 Joe Biden made the offer of, we're going to forgive student loans.

00:36:38.000 And they did some. I know that they didn't do it as broad.

00:36:40.000 Not really, though. I mean, they failed on that promise.

00:36:42.000 That was the thing about this free money promise.

00:36:44.000 They'll say, oh yeah, we'll give you money.

00:36:46.000 And people are like, I don't know, maybe.

00:36:47.000 But they act without the authority, without the agreement with Congress.

00:36:50.000 Thankfully, the Supreme Court has shut them down.

00:36:53.000 I don't know the details, but I was under the impression that they did do some kind of programs or something like that, where some were.

00:37:01.000 But even still, the point is...

00:37:03.000 Our government is not designed to be a service provider.

00:37:09.000 It's not supposed to be giving people money.

00:37:12.000 It's not supposed to be purchasing votes.

00:37:16.000 The point of government is to protect private property rights, to give you courts for redress of grievances, and to protect the border.

00:37:23.000 And it's failed at protecting the border.

00:37:25.000 It's questionable whether or not the courts are reliable anymore.

00:37:29.000 And it definitely doesn't protect private property when it's expropriating property so that way it can redistribute it.

00:37:34.000 So the entire government has failed on every level.

00:37:38.000 The federal government has failed on every level.

00:37:40.000 And the fact that the American people allow it to continue to do this and don't vote for significant change.

00:37:47.000 Kamala's out here saying, we're ready for change.

00:37:50.000 I just heard her talking about, one of her stump speeches, talking about, we're ready for a change.

00:37:55.000 We're ready for a change. It's like... You're coming from Joe Biden's administration.

00:37:59.000 There is no change if you get into office. 0.83

00:38:02.000 And it's just so ridiculous that there is a large enough portion of the American people that are believing this.

00:38:12.000 It's frustrating that that is the case, I suppose, is where I'm leading. 0.64

00:38:16.000 It's frustrating that there are people that think this is an acceptable state of affairs.

00:38:21.000 I wonder how many people do feel like it's an acceptable state of affairs.

00:38:26.000 I think that there are a portion of voters...

00:38:28.000 42%. The thing is, there are a portion of American voters, and this is true for both parties, I'm not trying to just be anti-left here, but who will vote in compliance with the party no matter what.

00:38:38.000 So she could say anything, but if she is endorsed by the Democrats, they're going to vote for her.

00:38:42.000 So if we say that's like what?

00:38:45.000 I would say that's close to 30% of that percentage, but maybe it's 20.

00:38:49.000 The other ones are either people who have decided that she is good or have some other reason for not wanting to vote for Trump.

00:38:57.000 I mean, there is this anti-Trump sentiment that exists, although I really think that he is a known quantity.

00:39:04.000 He is not this random mystery they can run.

00:39:09.000 Kamala Harris just...

00:39:12.000 Could not put on a good campaign if she wanted to because there is no connection among her staff and her advisors to the rest of America. 0.99

00:39:19.000 They don't know how to pitch things.

00:39:20.000 And that's why you are seeing...

00:39:21.000 And again, obviously we have to acknowledge that her campaign is like, what, three months old?

00:39:26.000 She started July 21st.

00:39:28.000 But that's why you're seeing a huge late-in-the-game pivot, that she's suddenly doing media. 0.87

00:39:33.000 Suddenly she wants to have Republicans be part of her cabinet.

00:39:37.000 Suddenly she wants to be bipartisan.

00:39:38.000 Actually, after her history as a prosecutor, she's...

00:39:41.000 She doesn't think you should be arrested for marijuana possession.

00:39:45.000 Actually, she is open to all kinds of things and she likes fracking.

00:39:48.000 I mean, she wasn't even the same person that she was in July when she announced this candidacy, let alone who she was when she ran on her own in 2020.

00:39:57.000 And I think that there is a certain portion of Americans that know that.

00:40:00.000 And even though they may ultimately cast a Democratic ticket, it's not because they love Kamala.

00:40:04.000 It's because they feel loyal to the party.

00:40:06.000 I'm going to throw out a strange combination, Aristotle and game theory.

00:40:10.000 So I can explain why both of those vote for those demographics, and it's inside their self-interest if you look at those two things.

00:40:17.000 In pre-modern political philosophy, they said that society is an ecosystem of basically different kinds of animals that have different interests.

00:40:26.000 So there's the lion on top, there's the bear, whatever.

00:40:29.000 It's symbolic. They didn't actually think...

00:40:34.000 I think it's important because we view the world as homogenous and the reality is there's a lot of different subgroups.

00:40:40.000 And so for game theory studies as an example, consistently you can move 60% of the population by changing the consensus.

00:40:48.000 So in multiple game theory studies… If you can change what the consensus people believe, you'll jump from 20% support to 80% support.

00:40:56.000 Furthermore, there's a 20% demographic that always try to do good and are selfless, and there's a 20% that are always parasitic no matter what in game theory studies.

00:41:07.000 So as a society, its duty is to basically bully the parasitic 20% and then get the 60% to be part of a consensus for the 20% who are selfless. 0.86

00:41:17.000 That's part of it. Second thing is that Philabonte really got onto this point well of it's the abdication of responsibility for Kamala's side of things.

00:41:30.000 So their entire strategy is divesting of the national interest for private interest.

00:41:36.000 And this is something Aristotle talked about, where all of Aristotle's political philosophy was based off how do you establish the best incentives for people to not predate from the system.

00:41:46.000 And so... What you're looking at here with Kamala's voters is you as an individual will get stuff at the expense of society.

00:41:57.000 And this is largely people who don't conceptualize society at all.

00:42:00.000 they're not thinking to themselves, if we do this, everything's going to fall apart because that's not in their mental framework.

00:42:08.000 And this is why the right and the left have different concepts of money, where the right sees money as something that's actively generated, so if you lower taxes, more money's going to be generated.

00:42:17.000 The left doesn't mentally process that and so they just see the money as a pie to divide, so there's a lot of money to the divide and they have no concept – the left has no concept of things as living or as group phenomena.

00:42:31.000 And so they'll just say, oh – they also can't make a distinction between individual and group, so for example, if you let one trans person into a women's bathroom, there would be no bad consequences and they choose not to differentiate between that and this is a social standard that will happen for decades because it's a very different matter between let's say when you give money to one friend in distress to your entire society gives all your money to people in distress.

00:42:57.000 Right. There's a funny meme where it says, one way to know if you're dealing with someone of low intelligence is to say something that is true, such as, on average, Asians are shorter than Europeans.

00:43:10.000 And if they respond with something like, not all Asians, you know you're dealing with a person who can't think in abstract. 1.00

00:43:15.000 Yes, yes. That's naxalt.

00:43:17.000 It's... I'm not going to get into this, but you have theories about tiers of consciousness, and they're basically...

00:43:23.000 Naxalt are not all X are like that. 0.99

00:43:25.000 It's a weird mental tier the left exists in where you're so intelligent you argue yourself back into stupidity. 0.99

00:43:31.000 Because if you're a tribal people in the Amazon, you just think you leave meat out for the ancestor gods, and the ancestor gods respect you. 0.99

00:43:40.000 That's a very simplistic worldview, but it works for you.

00:43:42.000 Actually, it's not simplistic.

00:43:44.000 There's lots of ancestor gods, but we're not going to get into that.

00:43:47.000 And so for the left, they're taking from all these advanced authors like Schopenhauer and Hegel, people who are very intelligent Marx, and then they drive it into the stupidest possible conclusion because they think, if I can make an argument, that makes it the correct argument.

00:44:04.000 And all of their logic is based upon everyone being the same, everyone being equal, and And then there are no consequences for actions.

00:44:13.000 Michael Malice said that he defines the new right simply by asking one question.

00:44:19.000 Do you believe that some people are better than others?

00:44:22.000 Yeah. I mean— Easy answer, right?

00:44:24.000 I don't like Malice's distinction of the right because I think he was looking at it in the 2010s, and I think the ecosystem—I need to make a video about this.

00:44:33.000 I was thinking when I was in the hotel here, I need to make a video on the factions of the new right because I think those factions are going to end up dominating national politics in history.

00:44:44.000 Random schizos on Twitter now will end up becoming the dominant ideology in 20 to 30 years.

00:44:50.000 Wait, wait. Like lefty weirdos on X, you're saying?

00:44:54.000 So the problem now is that there's no ideology that makes sense of the world today, which is why we're a civilization that's killing itself.

00:45:02.000 And it should be... Another great question.

00:45:04.000 Do you think... Real quick, do you mean that there's no dominant ideology?

00:45:07.000 So the dominant ideology is leftism, but they're in absence of any ideology.

00:45:12.000 They don't believe in anything. They just believe in stopping racism.

00:45:16.000 They believe in stopping sexism.

00:45:17.000 But it's not even that.

00:45:19.000 They are a swarm of bees with no direction.

00:45:21.000 Yes. So it's actually, I would describe the left as, have you ever seen the ant circle of death?

00:45:25.000 Yeah, yeah. When ants follow a pheromone trail from other ants that lead into a circle, it will spin in a circle until they die.

00:45:32.000 That is the left today.

00:45:33.000 Yes. Because in their system, everyone's equal, so no one can rise to leadership and give them direction.

00:45:38.000 And so they end up following each other with no goal and no pursuit.

00:45:43.000 And so when you look at what the left pursues, it seemingly makes no sense.

00:45:48.000 They criticize the military-industrial complex but support the war in Ukraine.

00:45:52.000 Yes. These things are paradoxical, but Hassan himself on his show in within the span of three minutes did exactly that.

00:45:58.000 Yes. If you want to look at thinkers like—there's a lot of thinkers on the right, and the issue with the right is that there's too little unity.

00:46:08.000 I spent—my life at this point is a lot of conservative politics, and I talk to people who are really on the Christian side of things, who are more Nietzscheans, who are libertarians.

00:46:20.000 You have foreign countries who have different nationalists.

00:46:22.000 You have people who are boomer cons, Reagan cons, people who are basically Nazis, people who, I don't know, worship Odin.

00:46:31.000 So you have like 20 factions on the right.

00:46:33.000 There's no unifying ideology, and they can only agree with what they dislike under the left.

00:46:37.000 Nature abhors a vacuum.

00:46:39.000 And so if you have a vacuum in both the right and the left, it means it's going to be filled.

00:46:43.000 And there are two ecosystems I find, because I've lived a strange life and I've looked into a lot of different industries, and most industries in America are high school, where it's done based off buddies, based off who you went to school with, who seems cool.

00:46:58.000 And that's why nothing works.

00:46:59.000 Nothing works because all of our leadership is done like high school.

00:47:02.000 The two non-high school industries I see are parts of tech and parts of the right.

00:47:07.000 And so those are the two factions I would look at to think, this is where the next wave of creativity is going to come from.

00:47:14.000 I agree.

00:47:15.000 I've been having some conversations with some other business leaders, and I'll keep it semi-private, but there's a management crisis.

00:47:23.000 I've been experiencing this, and having spoken with some other managers at other companies from small to medium, they keep saying the same thing.

00:47:30.000 We hear about Gen Z and millennials quiet quitting.

00:47:33.000 They don't want to work.

00:47:35.000 And so people are coasting.

00:47:37.000 They're doing the bare minimum. And it's resulting in social disorder and collapse.

00:47:42.000 To bring it to the point of the right, I do think there's one thing that all the right factions tend to agree on.

00:47:46.000 It's meritocracy in some form or another.

00:47:49.000 But a meritocracy is not a unifying ideology with a leadership.

00:47:52.000 So you might agree the best person for the job should have it.

00:47:55.000 And then what happens? Every single person on the right says, hey, don't look at me.

00:47:59.000 I don't want to be in charge. Yeah.

00:48:00.000 No joke. There is this issue with the Republican Party where we wonder why it is they won't do anything.

00:48:09.000 Yeah. It's fascinating how many of us are doing anything.

00:48:11.000 I mean, granted, I host a show, but people say, Tim, will you run for office?

00:48:13.000 And I'm like, no way, I won't do it.

00:48:14.000 Yes. We are power averse.

00:48:16.000 The Republican Party is power averse.

00:48:19.000 And the Democrats are power craven with no direction.

00:48:23.000 This is a recipe for an implosion.

00:48:26.000 Yes. The right tends to be, just like you said, the right doesn't want to be in positions of political power because they look to do things in the real world that do benefit themselves, but also it's something that they find interesting or they find themselves good at or whatever, whereas people on the left, they can organize and they're looking for a way to access power so they can...

00:48:51.000 Essentially, I feel like it should make the world align with the way that they emotionally feel that it should be.

00:48:57.000 One of the facts that I never see people discuss on this topic, but I think it's fundamentally...

00:49:03.000 This might be one of the most important facts I wish I could shove into the discourse, is that the left has controlled institutions at least since World War I or World War II. And so conservatives will often be like, oh...

00:49:16.000 I think we're good to go.

00:49:39.000 Whenever news about Stalin or Mao got out, it was suppressed because our elites were sympathetic.

00:49:44.000 The New York Times and the Hollywood Times. Exactly.

00:49:46.000 But that was way before World War II. Yeah, I said World War I. Oh, sorry.

00:49:49.000 World War I slash World War II. It's a gradual process. 0.83

00:49:52.000 And so the left has had power and...

00:49:57.000 The thing that they really hate about Trump is that he called their bluff because they were able to call a bluff—and this is what they mean by democracy.

00:50:05.000 Democracy is the series of managerial institutions which they use to enact their will through unelected officials.

00:50:13.000 And so— Trump called their bluff on democracy, and they hate him so much because Trump is forcing them to come to terms with that they were the elite because they had established this very advanced psychological manipulation of the population.

00:50:28.000 And this sounds schizo, but I can explain it.

00:50:30.000 It's all very easy to understand if you'd like.

00:50:32.000 That goes back decades, and the right has been so browbeaten by this where it's been generations of conservatives— I think the unfortunate reality is a degree of cowardice.

00:50:56.000 I know people will be offended by that, but let me say two things on this.

00:50:59.000 Someone asked me when I was in Newtown.

00:51:02.000 They said, I work in an industry, and it's very woke, and I don't know what to do.

00:51:05.000 Should I speak out? And I said, here's the hard reality.

00:51:07.000 If you're the first to speak out, you are in the trenches with a bunch of people and they're all terrified to look to see what's going on above.

00:51:16.000 And if you stick your head out because someone's got to do it, you're going to get hurt, right?

00:51:21.000 The problem is if nobody does, then you're all trapped forever.

00:51:24.000 The pioneers who came to North America... 0.63

00:51:28.000 Quarter of them died on the way here.

00:51:30.000 Then they landed on barren shores, knowing they had limited supplies in their ship, and they arrived in fall.

00:51:36.000 That's the craziest thing to me.

00:51:37.000 They were like, well, we have to.

00:51:39.000 That's when they were able to set sail.

00:51:40.000 They land on a barren shore, and they're like, okay, now most of us are going to starve to death.

00:51:44.000 What a thought. To be in Europe and say, you know what?

00:51:48.000 It's time to take a risk. We're probably gonna die.

00:51:50.000 Let's do it anyway. And now there are people who are like, I could lose my job.

00:51:54.000 And so I know it's tough because a lot of people are thinking, I can't risk losing my job.

00:51:59.000 And if everyone thinks that, you are all lemmings trapped in a box until someone steps up.

00:52:04.000 And I know a lot of people...

00:52:05.000 They like to throw shade my way and say, easy for you to say, Tim, you're on this big show, you've got a company.

00:52:09.000 I worked for Vice and Disney, and I spoke up, and I lost those connections, and I lost those contracts, and I started from scratch to start over.

00:52:16.000 I stuck my head out and had to start rebuilding and got to this point.

00:52:22.000 I don't think it's going to be the same for everybody.

00:52:24.000 Some people might have it harder, but so long as everybody on the right just simply says, I'm going to stay hidden and not say anything, then the left will continue to dominate everything.

00:52:32.000 The left dominated the 20th century because pre-internet, every single thing was a bureaucracy.

00:52:38.000 The media was a bureaucracy, the government, the military, corporate America, religion.

00:52:44.000 And the left is the religion of the bureaucracy because in the leftist worldview, the bureaucracy is God, which can do anything.

00:52:52.000 And so we only realized how much power the left had once the internet showed up.

00:52:57.000 Because the internet gave us a degree of separation.

00:52:59.000 And the reason the right is starting to build up its own culture is that we've moved away from the—because in 1985, probably 100 people controlled almost all of the information flow in the West.

00:53:10.000 Academia, the media, a variety of things.

00:53:13.000 We shattered that glass.

00:53:15.000 And as of now, we could use AI and the internet to completely automate out the managerial class.

00:53:23.000 And Balaji, I think, did a great—Balaji's done a great job thinking about this, of going through—he says the 19th century, God was the social fabric of society.

00:53:32.000 20th century, it was the state.

00:53:34.000 21st century, it's the network.

00:53:37.000 And I think— The network is, and the network is to our era what the bureaucracy was to the 20th century, and so you're seeing the new right emerge as this phenomena online due to that.

00:53:52.000 Let's jump to this story. We have this from Just Security, the war game, documentary, and simulating a worse January 6th.

00:53:59.000 Just say it! Just Security, civil war.

00:54:01.000 That's what they're entertaining.

00:54:03.000 The scenario is simply terrifying and sadly all too plausible, if not highly likely.

00:54:08.000 It's January 6, 2025, a date now less than three months away. A major party presidential candidate has responded to his opponent's victory with false allegations of widespread election fraud. The losing candidate's supporters, joined by militias and some members of the National Guard and active-duty U.S. military, are moved to violence by disinformation. An American general rises against the commander-in-chief and rallies other troops to join. The attackers breach the U.S.

00:54:32.000 capital and interrupt the counting electoral votes.

00:54:34.000 They seize the Arizona state Capitol and take half its state senators hostage, amass threatening crowds in other state capitals, and take over a major military base.

00:54:42.000 A high-level simulation of White House management of the scenario is what producer Jesse Moss and co-director Tony Gerber chronicle in their documentary film War Game, now streaming and in theaters.

00:54:53.000 Overall, War Game is impressive, but the film also has confusing elements and leaves key questions unanswered.

00:54:59.000 They're certainly entertaining this.

00:55:00.000 This is clearly written from the perspective of the managerial, bureaucratic, uniparty state, whatever you want to call it.

00:55:06.000 But I'm curious, Rudyard, if you see anything plausible in this assessment of what's going to happen on January 6, 2025.

00:55:15.000 Every single thing the left says is projection, and that's a principle where I can explain why I came to it.

00:55:21.000 It's something James Lindsay says as well.

00:55:22.000 So you're saying it's—I don't want to say you're saying, but is the implication that it is more likely that the left— I think my personal guess is I don't think we will get out of this election without blood because neither side can afford to have the other side to lose.

00:55:45.000 And so I think both sides will dispute the election no matter what.

00:55:49.000 And I think if the right wins, the left will dispute it.

00:55:51.000 And what they're trying to say here is partly signaling to their own followers.

00:55:55.000 And it's also to just larp the idea in their head.

00:56:00.000 Yeah. I think they would not be opposed to that sort of thing if Trump won.

00:56:06.000 Well, I'll give you an example. It was, oh man, what was the name of that Alaskan senator?

00:56:11.000 He died and then they made a foundation after him.

00:56:14.000 Do you remember what I'm talking about? Nick Begovich?

00:56:16.000 No, was it Alaskan Center?

00:56:18.000 Maybe it wasn't. It was a congressman, too.

00:56:20.000 There was a politician, some young guy started running his account, and then they turned it into some foundation or whatever.

00:56:28.000 I can't remember the name of it. Recently?

00:56:29.000 No, no, no, no.

00:56:30.000 I'll look it up in a second.

00:56:32.000 The chat knows for sure.

00:56:33.000 But they tweeted after January 6th that January 6th was justified, but the wrong side did it.

00:56:40.000 And these were progressives.

00:56:42.000 Yeah. Progressive Democrats.

00:56:44.000 There were multiple people, multiple organizations or whatever.

00:56:47.000 I think it was the Grable Institute said that.

00:56:49.000 Yeah, I was going to bring that up. Yeah, they said that they endorsed the action if it wasn't for the right doing.

00:56:54.000 Yeah, that was that, right? Yeah, the Gravel. Gravel.

00:56:56.000 Gravel. Mike Gravel was a senator.

00:56:58.000 He let some young guys take over his account.

00:57:00.000 They were super lefty.

00:57:01.000 And then they ended up posting after January 6th that they believe it was the right tactic, but the wrong people.

00:57:07.000 Yes. You guys should source check me on this, but there was a leftist think tank which basically made war room projections of the left launching a coup with the right one. 0.87

00:57:16.000 Yeah. And it's, I mean, what I say is that God's given us enough warning shots at this point.

00:57:24.000 If this crisis hits and you're not prepared for it, you've been warned.

00:57:28.000 So you were saying, I don't know if you said this on the show before the show, that whenever a great dynasty is about to fall, there's a storm.

00:57:35.000 Yeah. Explain that.

00:57:36.000 So these cycles of history I pull from...

00:57:41.000 They've existed for as long as we have records and Chinese authors have been writing about them for thousands of years.

00:57:48.000 Herodotus, Livy, Machiavelli.

00:57:50.000 The Bible alludes to them.

00:57:52.000 The things I'm talking about, these are things we've always known about.

00:57:54.000 And in Chinese political philosophy going back to 1000 BC, they talk about the mandate of heaven and they say that – When a dynasty falls, the earth shows its displeasure where there's famine, there's increase in prices, there's peasant rebellions, there's foreign wars, and then there's great storms as nature throws horrifying cataclysms like tornadoes or hurricanes and floods and droughts at the earth to show its displeasure.

00:58:20.000 And these things are correlations where...

00:58:25.000 If your society is falling apart, you're going to have all those sorts of things because all these things are correlated together, whether external crises or local political crises or famines or that stuff.

00:58:40.000 So these hurricanes that just slammed into the southeast, you're saying God is angry with the current dynasty of the United States and it's about to fall?

00:58:50.000 I did not say that. But is there any kind of like...

00:58:57.000 I don't know, supernatural explanation in these philosophical beliefs of a storm?

00:59:01.000 So, a major difference between how the ancients saw the world and the recent world that no one looks at is what Charles Taylor called the buffered personality.

00:59:11.000 And so people in the ancient world thought that our minds are basically living ecosystems.

00:59:15.000 And so their purpose for religion was to fill your mind with good bacteria to fight against negative stuff.

00:59:21.000 And so in the Middle Ages, they called the church basically knights against demonic warfare.

00:59:28.000 So they saw the church as basically a military force to fight Europe off from demonic possession.

00:59:35.000 And so I'm going through all of that to explain that back then, their concept of the world was that things were sympathetically, mystically connected.

00:59:42.000 And so... And they would say that the Earth is connected to the sky, which is connected to the weather, which is connected to astrological signs, and their idea would be that the collapse of our government would be part of this broader – like – This broader cosmic shift.

01:00:05.000 And so we would be downstream of the sorts of things that would cause these shifts in weather rather than vice versa.

01:00:12.000 It's kind of like, and I don't know if that's true, it wouldn't surprise me to a certain degree because the science over the last couple decades...

01:00:19.000 has consistently found the world's vastly more interconnected than we believe.

01:00:23.000 It's weird stuff like you can correlate— there's too many bizarre correlations we've found in science with like a certain kind of genetics, is with a certain kind of environment, or string theory with particles jumping across the world.

01:00:35.000 We know the world's connected in a myriad of ridiculous ways, and that there's these— I mean, in the years 1348, in the years 1645, every major country in the world was fighting both a civil war and an external war at the same time.

01:00:50.000 And so the world often, or Socrates, Lao Tzu, Buddha, and Confucius all lived at the exact same time.

01:00:58.000 So there are these weird hollow similarities you find over history.

01:01:01.000 An interesting book called by Victor Lieberman is how you can correlate political development in Southeast Asia in West Europe at the exact same time.

01:01:09.000 So there's a whole sub-industry of finding this stuff.

01:01:12.000 And so the argument that if you dropped a philosopher from a thousand years ago, he would say that – The reason you would have big storms, the collapse of a dynasty, this is part of God's plan, is like, there's these cosmic changes in the universe that you are part of this bigger correlation.

01:01:28.000 I think so, to a certain degree, but...

01:01:31.000 So I wanted to ask you, with all the stuff that you've studied, you've made a couple videos about...

01:01:36.000 Listless Men was a big one. 0.93

01:01:38.000 Yeah, yeah. I think you got in trouble for that one a little bit.

01:01:40.000 But based on what you've studied, you said...

01:01:44.000 You don't think we get to this election without blood.

01:01:46.000 But that could be a what? A street fight, maybe?

01:01:49.000 What do you think is the highest probability?

01:01:52.000 Maybe it's only 7% because there's 50 different potentialities.

01:01:56.000 But what do you think has the highest likelihood of happening following the election?

01:02:01.000 I have a bet going with my good friend Andrew Heaton.

01:02:05.000 $1,000 for 1,000 deaths by next April.

01:02:09.000 Really? Yeah, we have a bet going with each other.

01:02:11.000 You believe there will be 1,000 deaths by April?

01:02:14.000 Yes. That seems hard to believe.

01:02:16.000 Outside the normal death rate, right?

01:02:19.000 When it rains, it pours.

01:02:21.000 You're saying politically motivated deaths?

01:02:23.000 Oh yeah, I think people will be killing each other in the streets.

01:02:25.000 And is that just domestic?

01:02:27.000 Because, I mean, obviously there were huge assassinations, numbers of assassinations in Mexico.

01:02:31.000 Are we counting international political deaths?

01:02:33.000 So, let me tell you what I'm thinking here.

01:02:35.000 And keep in mind, I've been reading up on the French Revolution lately, where the last two books I've read were on the French Revolution.

01:02:43.000 And people never think these historic crises are going to hit until they do.

01:02:48.000 And it's one of those things, when it rains, it pours.

01:02:52.000 And you have really good sound insulation.

01:02:55.000 And... So World War I, everyone—one of the things I like to say is the world is inherently incredibly unreasonable, and expecting to be reasonable is in fact unreasonable.

01:03:06.000 And you look over history, political tensions build up, build up, build up, war, and then a bunch of people die.

01:03:11.000 And it's often not a little dribble.

01:03:13.000 It's often a big shower, especially—the more advanced your society is, the more likely it is to be a war and not political dribble.

01:03:20.000 I think— I don't know the sheer scale of it.

01:03:25.000 I think it'll be pretty bad.

01:03:28.000 And the four conflicts I've compared it to in the past are the French Revolution, the English Civil War, the American Civil War, and the fall of the Roman Republic.

01:03:41.000 So that's the sort of event I'm talking on the scale.

01:03:43.000 And I've drawn four connections between those, so I look for proxies between them.

01:03:48.000 I had a conversation with Eric Prince and I asked him, with all of his experience in these foreign countries that have been in conflict, crisis or collapse, does he see a parallel here in the United States, something that we should be worried about?

01:04:02.000 And his response was, well, I can tell you one thing.

01:04:04.000 Every guy that he knows who's been in a country that has suffered some kind of collapse— It happens overnight.

01:04:11.000 Yeah. One day the lights are on, you're watching TV, you go to bed, you wake up, there's no electricity, there's no internet, communications are severed, no one has any idea what's going on, and then conflict.

01:04:22.000 Yeah. Seemingly instantly.

01:04:24.000 And I think people need to understand that...

01:04:27.000 There is a fine line between order and chaos.

01:04:30.000 If you woke up one day and your TV couldn't turn on, and your phone didn't work, and you had no idea what was happening, without your phone, without the network, you can't use credit cards.

01:04:41.000 You go to a cafe when the internet's down, sorry, we can't take your credit cards, do you have cash?

01:04:45.000 So you go to the grocery store and you're like, I need to get some food, and they're like, sorry, do you have cash?

01:04:49.000 It's like, I need to go to an ATM. Sorry, ATM's down.

01:04:52.000 Network's not working. The chaos that will erupt in a matter of days But it would probably happen instantly because opportunists would take advantage.

01:04:59.000 Yes. Leading a formation of neighborhood watches from local men getting together and be like, we've got to figure out what's going on because we have no idea.

01:05:06.000 Now here's the crazy part.

01:05:09.000 Let me ask you this one, Rudyard.

01:05:12.000 Internet shuts down. Communications are off.

01:05:14.000 People walk out of their suburban sprawl homes and they're looking around and they're like, they see their neighbor Bill and say, hey Bill, is your internet down?

01:05:21.000 We have no idea what's going on.

01:05:22.000 TV's not working. I can't get a signal.

01:05:24.000 Do you have any idea what's happening? No idea.

01:05:26.000 Then you hear a boom off in the distance.

01:05:28.000 And they're like, what is going on?

01:05:30.000 Clueless! An APC pulls up.

01:05:33.000 Some guys in seeming military uniforms jump out and they say, don't worry, you know, my name is, you know, Lieutenant such and such.

01:05:39.000 We're here to make sure everybody's all right.

01:05:40.000 We got an outage. We're going to be making sure everyone's cool and everyone's happy.

01:05:45.000 You don't know who these people are.

01:05:47.000 Do you just trust them? Do you agree?

01:05:49.000 Do you obey? What do you do?

01:05:50.000 Without communication, how do you know what's going on?

01:05:53.000 You can't verify. Let me tell you a story.

01:05:55.000 When COVID started, I got out on the last call for the last flight out of Peru.

01:06:00.000 I got out of Peru because I had a friend in China and I called him up and he said, COVID's really nasty.

01:06:06.000 You should get out of there as soon as possible.

01:06:08.000 I booked a flight the next day.

01:06:09.000 Little did I know the Peruvian government shut down its board, its border, right after that without telling anyone in advance.

01:06:16.000 Wow. And then I got back to Pennsylvania, where I'm from, and then we were already in lockdown.

01:06:20.000 So we went from normal society to lockdown in like a week, several days.

01:06:25.000 We all lived through that.

01:06:26.000 And so that's the sort of thing that can happen.

01:06:28.000 And most people submit to authority if there's nothing else planned.

01:06:33.000 Now, here's an add-on to that.

01:06:35.000 The APC pulls up and there's some military-looking guys, walks over, shakes a guy's hand and says, hey, my name's Lieutenant such-and-such, and communications are down.

01:06:43.000 We don't know what's going on. There's some conflict happening up the road, but we're here to secure everything.

01:06:49.000 We're National Guard. All of a sudden, down the street, another APC pulls up.

01:06:53.000 These guys jump out, train their weapons on the other group of guys in the APC, shooting starts.

01:06:58.000 What I've consistently found with all of these historic conflicts, and it's funny to see how often history repeats, and that's one of the themes of my show, but it goes to a deeper degree than anyone thinks, where...

01:07:10.000 For the English Civil War as an example, there was a commonly known thing that it – the average Englishman was too weak to fight since it had been over a century since England had had a major war.

01:07:20.000 French Revolution, American Revolution, Russian Civil War, most people are completely inactive and then small groups of radicals normally – Between something like 1% to 3% of the population dominate the discourse.

01:07:33.000 With the French Revolution, the Jacobins, who became the ruling military caste of France, they were a social club originally.

01:07:40.000 They were a social club to push for social justice.

01:07:43.000 They would fund women's charities and stuff. 0.84

01:07:47.000 The Bolsheviks were also... 0.95

01:07:50.000 All communists were less than 3% of Russia's population.

01:07:53.000 The Bolsheviks were an even tinier amount than that. 0.99

01:07:56.000 Would you be interested in hearing...

01:07:59.000 How I think a conflict like this would start because I have multiple – let me ask you.

01:08:08.000 You're saying how do you think a civil war or a breakdown of the United States would begin?

01:08:12.000 You have a theory after that? Yes, yes. I have multiple – real quick, sorry.

01:08:15.000 So I just want to make sure I'm clear here.

01:08:18.000 Following the election, you have already said you think there will be 1,000 deaths, politically motivated deaths by April.

01:08:24.000 Is that correct? And either this will be the effect of or the beginning of what may be a collapse or breakdown?

01:08:34.000 I think it'll be a war. 0.70

01:08:36.000 I think you'll still probably get your groceries.

01:08:38.000 You'll still be able to watch Netflix.

01:08:40.000 Keep in mind, in Syria or Ukraine, the horrible thing is you'll still have to go to your job.

01:08:45.000 You'll still have to pay your bills.

01:08:47.000 You'll still watch Netflix with the kids.

01:08:49.000 It's just Chicago's being shelled.

01:08:51.000 And I do want you to begin with your scenario, but I want to stress this too.

01:08:56.000 It's a point that I like to make.

01:08:57.000 When I was in Egypt in 2013, across the street from the Hilton was McDonald's.

01:09:01.000 Yeah. There's a guy sitting down eating a cheeseburger and watching soccer.

01:09:05.000 And three blocks away was the revolution.

01:09:08.000 APCs were surrounding.

01:09:09.000 Blackhawks were flying overhead.

01:09:11.000 We got in a car and drove to Heliopolis and went to the mall where everybody was going about their days if nothing was happening.

01:09:17.000 So with that in mind, people seem to think that a war starting means literally you're in your home and bolts are flying.

01:09:24.000 But explain to me what you think is going to happen in the next couple of months.

01:09:28.000 So... I've studied dozens of different historic crises, and the reason I think we're going to have a war is partly intuitive. 0.74

01:09:36.000 You just look outside. But it's also I've studied almost every single model of the science of history, where people have been trying to develop models to predict history, and about five different historic models, most of them dating to the 20th century, say that in the 2020s, America would have a civil war.

01:09:52.000 And I was looking...

01:09:53.000 This is like Strauss House generational theory.

01:09:55.000 So Strauss House, David Hackett Fisher, Peter Turchin.

01:09:59.000 There's a handful of others.

01:10:00.000 There's Goldstein, who's a really terrible author.

01:10:03.000 The ones I pull on the most are Peter Turchin and David Hackett Fisher.

01:10:08.000 They really get into the data, computer science level.

01:10:11.000 And there's a handful of...

01:10:12.000 There's like four variables.

01:10:13.000 There's three variables that Peter Turchin looked at, where if you look at these variables...

01:10:17.000 And he's used this for over...

01:10:23.000 historic crises happening. Those are average wages, income inequality, and competition for elite jobs. Those three variables were able to predict the fall of the Roman Republic, the English Civil War, the Black Death, the French Wars of Religion, the French Revolution, the Russian Revolution, and so many more.

01:10:40.000 And these crises happen every 250 years like clockwork. The last real version in the Western world was the French Revolution. Before then, the Wars of Religion in the mid-1600s that killed a third of Europe's population. Before then, the Black Death in the 1300s which killed half of Europe's population.

01:10:59.000 So these are patterns that we have computer models to study.

01:11:02.000 They're very consistent.

01:11:04.000 And so I'm looking to all these historic examples to inform my analysis of what I'm about to say.

01:11:08.000 So how does it begin?

01:11:10.000 So I have a tier list of multiple variables.

01:11:12.000 My top one was a financial crisis, and that was going back years.

01:11:16.000 I figured out a lot of this stuff in 2020.

01:11:19.000 And financial crisis was my top bet because you look at the English Civil War, the French Revolution, and the...

01:11:27.000 France's previous crises in the 13 and the 1600s, et cetera.

01:11:31.000 And it's normally caused by a budget issue because leading up to these crises, one of the great books in this topic, The Great Wave by David Hackett Fisher, he found these crises because he was studying the history of inflation and he found you could correlate the history of inflation with these crises because inflation is a parallel for the government instability.

01:11:52.000 So the government's inflating its currency when it's feeling desperate.

01:11:55.000 So long periods of inflation which crest and the top predictors for these crises from the inflation analysis are increase in real estate prices, real estate and food prices, oil prices.

01:12:08.000 And this was stuff I saw in 2020 and I was thinking in 2020, oh, it's great that our real estate's not that bad.

01:12:13.000 It's great that our food prices aren't that bad.

01:12:16.000 And then... Now food and I gotta tell you real estate is insane right now. I know.

01:12:20.000 There was a house nearby that was like $250 and now it's $500 and it's been two years.

01:12:25.000 And this isn't a super like, this isn't like Miami or Los Angeles.

01:12:29.000 We're in West Virginia. Yeah, exactly.

01:12:31.000 So do you believe that we will see a financial crisis then in the next few months? Maybe not the next few months. It wouldn't surprise me next few months, I think.

01:12:40.000 Because... So I want to try and get to this. You're saying that within the next three months or by till April, sorry, it's not three months, five or six.

01:12:48.000 Political crisis. That's what I'm betting on. Let me tell you what I'm thinking. So for these crises, the number one thing is the budget issue. I don't think we're going to face the budget issue. It's still my number two probability. So historically, the budget issue is the top one because for all of these crises, the thing that instigated it was the budget crisis where neither side was willing to let the other side have a concession.

01:13:11.000 I'm going to use the English Civil War and the French Revolution as an example.

01:13:16.000 In the English Civil War, England was divided between the supporters of the king and the parliament.

01:13:21.000 In all of these underlie certain class and ethnic and regional interests.

01:13:25.000 For us, I say the right versus left is college-educated versus non-college-educated.

01:13:30.000 And so English Civil War, it was the nobility and the merchants. And so what happened was that they had a huge budget. They couldn't pay their bills at all.

01:13:41.000 And then the royalists tried to get the parliamentarians to give a concession for a foreign war and then the parliamentarians said no.

01:13:49.000 The king tried to shut down the parliament. French Revolution is almost the exact same thing.

01:13:53.000 The king tried to get the parliament to give a budget consensus. The parliament said no, start of the war. So that was my top predictor where something – an example of that for us would be – The – a great example. 0.99

01:14:07.000 So for my whole stack of probabilities, my top probability now is election dispute.

01:14:13.000 Then it's budget issue.

01:14:15.000 Then it's foreign war. 0.89

01:14:19.000 Trump assassination. I'd move Trump assassination to number three now, and then black swan or randomized event.

01:14:26.000 A black swan would be, let's say, there's a major riot in Los Angeles that the police don't respond to, and then that becomes a political issue, like what you saw in the UK. So we're looking at a political crisis.

01:14:39.000 Political crisis. The French Revolution is a great example of this because I've been reading up on the topic.

01:14:45.000 The Tocqueville's book on it is amazing.

01:14:46.000 You guys should read it. But the thing I didn't know at the French Revolution until really recently is that it's a multi-year process.

01:14:52.000 So what happened is that you had a political dispute between...

01:14:56.000 the parliament and the king. The king shut down the parliament. The parliament says, no, we're not going to do that.

01:15:03.000 Then there's this quiet coup. And the crazy thing with the French Revolution is there's no real violent point that happens.

01:15:09.000 What just happens is the army mutinies. The army says, no, king, you're going to listen to the parliament.

01:15:14.000 And then the peasants start burning down the Lord's land.

01:15:17.000 But it was this gradual, let's say, three-year process where the monarch lost power. France then became a parliamentary democracy where only the rich could vote, slightly in the right and the left.

01:15:26.000 The left killed the right.

01:15:28.000 They gave the poor the vote.

01:15:29.000 France then became a military dictatorship.

01:15:31.000 No, it became three people.

01:15:33.000 Then it became the Jacobins, who are the radical leftists, who are a social club, took over.

01:15:39.000 But real quick, it was a series of revolutions, wasn't it?

01:15:42.000 Oh, yes. And so that's what I think it would be where my best scenario is that both sides— I think?

01:16:06.000 most political pundits, most, a lot of big political pundits have openly pushed for violence at this point and... So even on the right? I think, so like the Nick Fuentes types, there are definitely people who would not be against it.

01:16:21.000 So, I would put it this way.

01:16:23.000 On the left, we have seen extremist rhetoric bubbling up to the highest levels.

01:16:27.000 We have seen the excusing of extreme violence, such as at the Chaz Chop, there were a couple teenagers that were shot.

01:16:34.000 There was another guy who was shot and killed.

01:16:35.000 In Provo, Utah, BLM ran up to a car and just shot a guy for no reason.

01:16:39.000 Then when you look at what the quote-unquote right has...

01:16:43.000 There's no prominent right-winger advocating for violence or calling for the use of violence or force.

01:16:48.000 At most, Trump has—he came out and said the death penalty for illegal—I'm sorry, death penalty for migrants who kill Americans or cops.

01:16:56.000 We do have the lower-tier, more fringe elements of the right or anti-left who are absolutely calling for violence, but there's not the leadership faction calling for it.

01:17:07.000 Yeah. I understand you're not calling for violence, and I hate to be this blunt, but you did put your capital in Harpers Ferry for a reason.

01:17:13.000 It's like a revolutionary center.

01:17:15.000 This is where the American Civil War started.

01:17:17.000 Yeah, you're in Harpers Ferry for a reason.

01:17:19.000 We're in Harpers Ferry because it's the closest we can get to D.C. without being in a liberal state.

01:17:24.000 John Brown. It's John Brown.

01:17:25.000 I mean, that's obvious.

01:17:27.000 But do you know the history of Harpers Ferry?

01:17:29.000 Oh, yeah. It was impossible to defend.

01:17:32.000 It was a military base that John Brown attacked because he wanted to launch a slave revolt across the South.

01:17:37.000 Rose of the Armory. Yeah, yeah.

01:17:39.000 And during the Civil War, it was captured over and over again because it was impossible to defend.

01:17:43.000 Yeah. You could attack it, seize it, and then you couldn't defend it, so the south and the north went back and forth.

01:17:48.000 It is a terrible place to set up any kind of operation.

01:17:51.000 Yes, it's surrounded and all sides by hills that you can rain artillery down from.

01:17:55.000 Right. And the reason it exists was because—I can't remember the guy's name, but it was Harper.

01:18:00.000 He had a ferry because that's where the river splits, and so he would ferry people, and then they set up a trade and port in the area.

01:18:07.000 And then John Brown, who I think was a nutjob—he had been going to Kansas and just killing people with his sons—went to Harper's Ferry, seized the armory, attempting to start a slave revolt— And then when they stopped a train, he let the train leave.

01:18:25.000 The train immediately made contact to the next stop and said, Yo, this guy's taking over the town.

01:18:31.000 You need to send in the troops.

01:18:32.000 And this is, you know...

01:18:33.000 This was not the main point I was trying to convey.

01:18:36.000 I'm just saying, Harper's Ferry's a terrible place to be.

01:18:38.000 Oh, I'm not saying... I never said you're trying to launch a revolt.

01:18:41.000 I'm just saying this place has historic significance.

01:18:43.000 That I get. Yes.

01:18:45.000 I'm just saying, like, for somebody like myself who talks about the probability of civil war, this is the worst place to go.

01:18:50.000 Oh... I never—you're not trying to launch a coup.

01:18:53.000 There aren't enough guns here. I'm not saying you're suggesting that.

01:18:56.000 I'm saying that if we were actually considering— No, I'm not saying that either.

01:19:03.000 I'm saying that if we were actually concerned about conflict and wanted to avoid it— We would go...

01:19:08.000 Oh, I'm not saying that. No, I'm saying that this place has a very significant historical significance.

01:19:12.000 There are signs every 10 feet with the history of the Civil War.

01:19:16.000 You drive down the road and there's plaques everywhere telling you about these battles.

01:19:20.000 There's cannons along the road.

01:19:21.000 What I was trying to say is that picking this location, it shows the political discourse we're at.

01:19:26.000 It shows that we're a very...

01:19:29.000 We didn't pick this location for any political or historic reason.

01:19:32.000 We chose it because it's the eastern panhandle of West Virginia, which keeps us out of the liberal jurisdictions which ban guns, but allows us access to Baltimore and D.C. airports.

01:19:43.000 That's the only reason.

01:19:44.000 Because the first place we built was actually in western Maryland, and then our guns were banned, and we were like, okay, let's move over a little bit.

01:19:52.000 It sounds like Rutgers alluding more to serendipitous selection because...

01:19:57.000 And I'll throw one more at you. 1.00

01:19:59.000 We did a show on the culture war with these researchers who study weather patterns and geoengineering and things like this.

01:20:07.000 Very much these guys were against the idea that the militaries and governments were controlling weather or anything like that.

01:20:13.000 Such that we can cloud seed.

01:20:16.000 Operation Popeye was a real thing, but no one's creating and moving hurricanes.

01:20:19.000 It's insane. However, one gentleman did bring up a very interesting slide that shows there was a correlation between weather patterns over a long period of time and reserve currencies.

01:20:30.000 And that empires collapsed in correlation somehow for some reason along with global weather pattern.

01:20:39.000 Yeah, yeah. And so as you were mentioning the strange cosmology and the strange connections we can't map out, let me break it down this way.

01:20:48.000 I may say something like, we see a reserve currency collapse around the same time there's major storms, and you think that's spiritual hubbub supernatural nonsense.

01:20:55.000 It's a coincidence. However, there's a really great map that shows voting patterns as influenced by ancient coastlines.

01:21:02.000 Yeah. Have you seen this map?

01:21:04.000 In the south, in the United States, where the coastline used to go up to the southern states, into the center of those states, a long strip.

01:21:13.000 Those coasts created fertile soil.

01:21:19.000 farmed that specific area. When slavery ended, those areas became dominated by Democrat-leaning black communities who are now heavily Democrat, and they show you the correlation between ancient coastlines and how it affects modern voting today. Another really great story, which I'm sure you're aware of, is the distance of the train tracks and how it's based on the Roman chariots.

01:21:38.000 Yes. This stuff is everywhere.

01:21:40.000 The universe is infinitely connected and everything's connected to itself.

01:21:44.000 Back in the 1600s, they were able to look at sunspot activity and correlate it with temperature levels.

01:21:50.000 And the 1600s was a very cold society.

01:21:53.000 And so they knew, even in the 1600s, that their political issues were correlated with these variations in sunspots.

01:22:01.000 Yeah.

01:22:03.000 Yeah. We have the safe harbor deadline in December.

01:22:28.000 We have the electoral vote count January 6th.

01:22:31.000 Do you have any, like, guess as to what kicks off a political conflict in this time period?

01:22:36.000 Is it going to be January 6th where Democrats refuse to certify?

01:22:40.000 Is it going to be Trump wins, but then riots erupt across the country?

01:22:43.000 I operate in certain probabilistic ranges where if you're looking at something over a certain time frame, a group of people, you can make a genuine probabilistic bet.

01:22:52.000 So I have an 80% probability the right wins.

01:22:54.000 When you operate in frames like that— But you're saying 80% chance that Trump wins the election?

01:22:59.000 Oh, right. So I think he's going to win the election.

01:23:01.000 I also—that's not what I was saying.

01:23:03.000 I think if there's a civil war, 80% chance the right wins.

01:23:05.000 And so I'm comfortable saying that.

01:23:08.000 With a frame like a one-month period, you're operating on a scale of size that's too dependent on individual variables.

01:23:15.000 And I think neither side is going to accept the results of the election.

01:23:21.000 Right. The thing is they don't have to convince the other side.

01:23:24.000 They just have to give their own side enough plausible deniability.

01:23:28.000 And so I think we would end up with, let's say, an American people's government based out of Washington, D.C., and an American patriots government based out of Austin.

01:23:36.000 And so if you want to look at English Civil War, French Revolution, America— Yeah, English Civil War, French Revolution, American Civil War, English Civil War, French Revolution.

01:23:50.000 Each of them, both factions claimed to be the one true government, and the other faction were the enemies of the real government.

01:23:58.000 And so what would happen is that, let's say, electoral issue...

01:24:03.000 And I think there's going to be a lot of cheating this election because there's no incentive to not cheat.

01:24:09.000 Right. Because people have disputed the last two elections.

01:24:12.000 And Democrats have disputed every election they've lost going back, I think, 40 years.

01:24:19.000 But now it's come to 2016 was stolen by the Russians. 0.91

01:24:23.000 2020 was stolen by Biden.

01:24:24.000 Yes. And so you have complete...

01:24:26.000 You have complete validity in saying that this election isn't fair, and so that gives you complete legal plausible deniability.

01:24:34.000 And so the right could say the left was falsifying the elections.

01:24:37.000 The left can say the right is a threat to democracy.

01:24:40.000 Both of them could have their supporters behind them.

01:24:42.000 Then they have independent governments, and then they basically conscript young men.

01:24:46.000 This isn't going to be the end of society.

01:24:48.000 It wouldn't be a nuclear holocaust. 0.81

01:24:52.000 It would be— Like one of those wars you see in a country you don't want to travel to.

01:24:57.000 Like if you look at Ethiopia where the Tigray and the Amhara are having a civil war and it just happened and they conscripted many of those ethnicities.

01:25:08.000 You look at… You look at a variety of countries around the world, and these sorts of civil wars are very normal.

01:25:14.000 And the sad thing is that an African saying that goes, when the elephants fight, the grass loses.

01:25:20.000 Because when these great political conflicts happen, I'm from one of the most politically contentious parts of the country.

01:25:27.000 I'm from outside Philadelphia.

01:25:28.000 My hometown is one of the most electorally important places.

01:25:32.000 And so I know that places like my hometown would get screwed over in a civil war.

01:25:36.000 And that's the downstream effects of this sort of thing.

01:25:40.000 Austin, you think, will be the people's...

01:25:43.000 American patriots' government.

01:25:45.000 Because... So...

01:25:47.000 Texas is the only state you could put a conservative capital in because it's in the middle of the map.

01:25:52.000 It has the industrial base.

01:25:54.000 But Austin is...

01:25:55.000 The pre-established government of Texas is in Austin.

01:25:58.000 So if you run a government, you need to have the human capital.

01:26:01.000 Austin's government human capital is pre-established in Austin.

01:26:05.000 Austin, they also...

01:26:06.000 It has no defensible borders.

01:26:07.000 It's surrounded by highways.

01:26:09.000 It has a big conservative intellectual group there.

01:26:13.000 The left could not defend Austin, and Texas has the biggest national guard in the country.

01:26:18.000 So they could just steamroll Austin overnight and establish it as a conservative base.

01:26:23.000 And then you have – you said the right would win in the end.

01:26:26.000 And I think that's true just because urban centers are where the liberals are and urban centers can be choked out by a couple blockades.

01:26:33.000 Yes. It's a variety of things.

01:26:35.000 The biggest variable I would look at here is the military is – the military tilts these conflicts and the military tilts right, and that's probably more pronounced over the last few years.

01:26:47.000 Young men tilt right.

01:26:48.000 Guns. Sorry, sorry.

01:26:50.000 The theory is the reason why the military has been going drag queen woke is because they're trying to purge out more conservative leaning members.

01:26:56.000 Yes. It's like the Spanish Civil War, where in the Spanish Civil War, the military tilted right, and then the elected leftist government trying to purge the military, the top brass of the military.

01:27:07.000 But if you want to look at the French Revolution and the Russian Revolution, what happened is that the top brass were political appointments while most of the military were sympathetic to the rebels.

01:27:18.000 And then when push came to shove, the men sided with their colonels and their sergeants, not with the generals and the admirals.

01:27:26.000 I wonder for those that are listening that served, if you believe either you or others would choose to go with their immediate chain of command, the people you know or the generals.

01:27:36.000 Because I got a feeling a lot of people are going to be like, when you're looking at leadership like Millie, and he's the one who's giving orders, and then you got your buddies, the people you know and trust and have led you well.

01:27:45.000 But I don't know. I haven't served, so I wouldn't know.

01:27:47.000 Yes. Having the military mutiny and go for the non-ruling class, you see it in a lot of these revolutions.

01:27:53.000 It's the determinant variable.

01:27:55.000 Besides that, young men tilt right as a demographic. 0.86

01:27:59.000 Besides that, gun owners tilt right.

01:28:01.000 The right has the manufacturing.

01:28:03.000 It has the electricity.

01:28:04.000 It has the food.

01:28:05.000 It has a geographically coherent territory.

01:28:08.000 And then the left is a bunch of city states.

01:28:09.000 And even on the east or the west coast, you could cut off Philly from D.C., from New York.

01:28:15.000 The left also is just so delusional, and they're so... 0.86

01:28:18.000 The left thinks hunting is immoral, let alone killing people. 0.87

01:28:22.000 I just read a story... The left doesn't know the difference between men and women. 0.66

01:28:25.000 Exactly. I watched this story on Lotus Eaters yesterday about the...

01:28:32.000 About...

01:28:33.000 There was this Danish ship off...

01:28:39.000 And the Danes, they were attacked by a one-legged pirate and then after beating the pirate, they sent him back in a boat with enough food to make it because they couldn't legally determine what nationality the pirate was.

01:28:56.000 This is insane.

01:28:57.000 In no other era of history are you attacked by a pirate and you treat it like a bird that got lost in your house.

01:29:02.000 How about this? Venezuelan gangs have taken over several apartment complexes in Aurora.

01:29:07.000 The media lied, said it wasn't happening.

01:29:09.000 Now they admit it's happening, but they say it's only a handful.

01:29:12.000 Yes. In what history, historical period, and I'm sure there is one, would a nation allow a foreign group of violent attackers to seize its territory in any capacity?

01:29:25.000 Yes. I have to imagine the references you'd bring up would be the fallen declination of a society.

01:29:29.000 Yeah, Aristotle said that a tyranny will bring in the outsiders in order to – the outsiders can be trusted by a tyrant because they have no loyalty to the society. 0.89

01:29:40.000 And so Aristotle said a tyrant will naturally bring in foreigners to oppress his own population because they won't have any investment. 0.73

01:29:48.000 Bye, isn't that prescient today?

01:30:12.000 I don't take credit for anything.

01:30:14.000 Alex Jones famously predicted the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.

01:30:17.000 And everybody was super impressing.

01:30:19.000 Wow, Alex Jones, he got this one.

01:30:20.000 This is a huge thing to get right.

01:30:22.000 I called Alex, and we were talking.

01:30:25.000 And one of the things that came up was, how did you know?

01:30:27.000 And he was like, well, I just read the news.

01:30:29.000 Like, they said Russia was amassing troops.

01:30:31.000 They said they were concerned about movements when the weather got warmer.

01:30:34.000 And I said... Sounds like Russia's gonna invade in the spring.

01:30:37.000 And then they did, and everybody acted like it was some profound revelation when it was literally just...

01:30:43.000 I read the news.

01:30:45.000 Yeah. Seems like we might be on path for a civil war.

01:31:11.000 I'm like, Tim, you're crazy. Why would you make that up? 0.98

01:31:13.000 And I'm like, guys. I predicted the invasion of Ukraine two years in advance, and then before it happened, I got it to the exact week it occurred.

01:31:22.000 Because I was going off the Peter Zeihan analysis of Russia's demographics, and I was reading the news, too.

01:31:28.000 I was looking at Olympic Games and weather patterns for when they could move troops in Ukraine.

01:31:33.000 It's just, people are in denial, and one of my friends likes to say denial is an evolutionary strategy to avoid dealing with things you can't deal with.

01:31:41.000 Yeah. Indeed.

01:31:44.000 And then it's, as they say, gradually, then suddenly.

01:31:46.000 And so, on November 5th, you know, let me also add, you mentioned the strange connections in cosmology and the universe, and how strange is it that we find ourselves in Harper's Ferry, that there is a street across from our old studio called Sandy Hook, and that on November 5th, The election is to take place.

01:32:13.000 Remember, remember the 5th of November, the gunpowder treason in plot.

01:32:16.000 Yeah. Our generation, 12 years ago, no, I'm sorry, this is like 14 years ago or 16 years ago.

01:32:25.000 Remember when Anonymous on 4chan gathered around, was marching down the streets of all these major cities wearing Guy Fawkes masks?

01:32:32.000 During Occupy Wall Street, people maintained the Guy Fawkes mask.

01:32:36.000 Guy Fawkes, this was largely from V for Vendetta.

01:32:39.000 A movie about an anarchist revolutionary who overthrows the tyrannical British government that seized power through a fake viral infection that they manufactured, controlling quarantine zones, making sure people can't go out at night, creating militaristic fingermen who could do whatever they wanted.

01:32:55.000 And people wore these masks and chanted, remember, remember the 5th of November.

01:33:00.000 And as it was, I can't remember, what's the actor's name who played V? Oh, Viggo Morgensen?

01:33:09.000 No, no, no, no.

01:33:10.000 That's Aragorn. That's Aragorn.

01:33:11.000 It was the guy who played Elrond.

01:33:14.000 Yeah, Elrond. I forget what his name is.

01:33:16.000 Hugo Weaving. Hugo Weaving.

01:33:18.000 And he says, if you see as I see and if you feel as I feel and if you would seek as I seek, then meet me one year from today on the steps of Parliament on November 5th.

01:33:28.000 Yes. And I remember thinking it's fascinating because so many young people were like, yeah!

01:33:31.000 And I was like, Guy Fawkes was a theocratic revolutionary.

01:33:36.000 He wanted to overthrow parliament to install a Christian theocracy. 0.99

01:33:40.000 Why are you young liberals cheering for this guy?

01:33:43.000 It's seemingly nonsensical.

01:33:44.000 They didn't know what they were cheering for, but millennials had it hard-coded in their mind November 5th, and now we stand at the precipice of chaos, and it is November 5th, the date the election is to take place. 0.98

01:33:56.000 Damn. Do you know what a synchronicity is? 0.97

01:33:59.000 Explain it to me. This is a concept from Carl Jung where – and it exists across societies.

01:34:05.000 There's a brilliant book called Forgotten Truth by Houston Smith who was possibly the best scholar of religion of the 20th century.

01:34:11.000 And Forgotten Truth, he goes to the philosophic points every major world religions share.

01:34:16.000 And it's not stuff you expect.

01:34:17.000 It's weird stuff. But synchronicity is one of them.

01:34:21.000 It's, for example, let's say you break up with your old girlfriend on the day you meet your new one, or that you have a birthday on the same day as your best friend.

01:34:30.000 It's weird details like that.

01:34:32.000 And you run in—if you hang out in religious and spirituals or whatever circles, you run into this— This type of person who writes down all the synchronicities in their life.

01:34:43.000 Well, I can explain to you rather simply.

01:34:44.000 You see, in the code of the universe, there's only so many limited variables that were hard programmed by the creator.

01:34:51.000 And so the procedural generation has to repeat terms and dates because there's...

01:34:55.000 Or it's sympathetic connections.

01:34:57.000 Like in string theory, there are connections across the universe.

01:35:00.000 And this is something physics believes in today.

01:35:03.000 And in pre-industrial philosophy, it was called the law of sympathy.

01:35:06.000 It's how if you stab a voodoo doll, the person suffers. 1.00

01:35:09.000 Although I don't think if you actually do stab a voodoo doll, the other person's going to die. 1.00

01:35:14.000 And one of the things Peter Turchin, who's one of the biggest scholars in this topic, and he's more on the autist than the schizo axis.

01:35:23.000 So if he says this, it's something that has a lot of validity, is that you see these patterns that happen again in the same society when they have these crises.

01:35:35.000 So for France as an example, three times in a row they had their civil war due to the king having a budget issue, calling the parliament, the parliament saying no, and twice they resolved the legal dispute in a tennis court.

01:35:49.000 And Philippe Fabry has done a lot of work with us where he's – He does what I do in France, where he finds, for example, European societies repeat certain cultural patterns in their history, while Middle Eastern societies repeat different patterns in their history.

01:36:05.000 And genetics codes a tremendous amount.

01:36:07.000 I don't know how much of it's genetic or how much of it's cultural, but we can use genetics to predict how fast you drive, what music you listen to, how religious you are, you name your cat.

01:36:18.000 So it wouldn't surprise me if stuff like this is coded into our genetics to a certain degree.

01:36:22.000 Phil has the heavy metal gene.

01:36:23.000 Apparently I do. Interesting.

01:36:25.000 We're gonna go to Super Chat, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, give it a good ol' smash, subscribe, share the show with everyone you know, become a member by going to timcast.com and clicking join us, because I can assure you the members-only show is gonna get a little spicy, I'd imagine.

01:36:41.000 Not so family-friendly, but always fun.

01:36:43.000 This one's probably gonna be way more serious.

01:36:45.000 Because there's a lot more that I want to break down, but maybe not so...

01:36:48.000 Not when the kids are sitting there in the living room with you guys, because I know you're watching on the TV, and we'll keep this one for the members' show.

01:36:55.000 But we'll grab your Superchats now.

01:36:58.000 Quispy Joe says, Did you see Nintendo leaks?

01:37:00.000 Poor Typhlosion. I did not.

01:37:02.000 Did you guys... There was Nintendo leaks or something?

01:37:05.000 No. No idea!

01:37:06.000 That pop culture crisis talked about it.

01:37:08.000 Certainly. Centurion says, Trump is not on the voter pamphlet for Oregon.

01:37:13.000 Well then. Wait, really?

01:37:15.000 That's what someone's claiming. You know, we have to fact check it, fact check it.

01:37:19.000 Alright, what have we here, my friends?

01:37:22.000 Little Abello says, Tim, money for that masterclass on Uncensored, being the real, calm, and logical one, and defending us, your audience, too.

01:37:30.000 Kudos. I recommend you guys watch the Piers Morgan Uncensored I was on with a handful of people.

01:37:36.000 It was just, it was absolutely fascinating, and it's a cacophony of noise that will probably grind your ears, and you will not enjoy it.

01:37:42.000 But, um... You know, shout out to Piers Morgan, because I think he was trying to do a good job, but he invited some people on where you can't do that.

01:37:48.000 And the first thing that Piers opens up with is, you know, Trump is struggling with female voters, Kamala with male voters.

01:37:54.000 I'm going to send it to you, Tim, what do you think?

01:37:56.000 And I said, this is correct.

01:37:57.000 You know, obviously Kamala is trying to court male voters, Joe Rogan, blah, blah, blah. 0.99

01:38:01.000 And then I said, I think there are women that will hold their nose and vote for Donald Trump, but I think there are men that are sexist and just will not vote for a woman.

01:38:09.000 And I don't know how Kamala Harris overcomes that.

01:38:11.000 And then all of a sudden, you know, we get some rational thought, but this woman is just like Tim Pool and his misogynist audience of men and Tim Pool.

01:38:20.000 And I was like, why are you saying my name?

01:38:22.000 Like, I didn't say anything to you, like, lady, like, what are you yelling at me for?

01:38:25.000 And she called me a COVID denier, said Tim Pool was a COVID denier who then got COVID and took ivermectin or something.

01:38:32.000 And I was like, what?

01:38:33.000 I never denied COVID. I rejected ivermectin.

01:38:37.000 I told my doctor I didn't even want it.

01:38:39.000 This is absolutely nuts.

01:38:41.000 I told everyone to go to their doctors to get prescribed what was right for them.

01:38:44.000 And she had no answer.

01:38:46.000 Every single time you talked about it, you said, go to your doctor.

01:38:49.000 I said, don't take advice from me.

01:38:51.000 I'm some podcast. I don't know. I don't know, man.

01:38:52.000 I read the news. But the fascinating thing is the what is exemplified here is the left gets their news and information from clips that are out of context and they don't read the news.

01:39:01.000 So when she was saying things like your far right audience, I was like, what?

01:39:05.000 I was like, I just opened the show by saying inherent sexism is a barrier for Kamala Harris that is difficult for her to overcome.

01:39:12.000 Do you disagree with that?

01:39:13.000 She's like, well, you're far right male misogynist audience.

01:39:15.000 And I was like, the misogynist audience that agrees inherent sexism is a barrier for Kamala Harris?

01:39:21.000 Like, what are you talking about? Because they don't actually watch the show.

01:39:24.000 They don't know what you or I think.

01:39:27.000 Someone posts an out-of-context clip or a fake AI thing.

01:39:30.000 I will tell you this right now.

01:39:32.000 And I don't know if you've factored this into any of your equations, too.

01:39:35.000 But when I look at the front page of YouTube, the default...

01:39:38.000 I shouldn't call it the front page. Will you go to youtube.com?

01:39:40.000 I saw a couple segments, and I brought this up last week, where they said that I was making comments about Cenk Uygur, and they edited different things together to make a fake debate between me and Cenk under the guise that it was real.

01:39:54.000 And so it was me saying something that wasn't about Cenk, but they claimed, they said, look at what he said about Cenk. 0.93

01:39:59.000 And then I'm like, this guy's nuts. 0.95

01:40:00.000 I can't believe he would say it. 0.99

01:40:01.000 And I'm talking about some crazy burglar or something.

01:40:04.000 Then he showed a clip of Cenk saying something like, I can't do it with this guy.

01:40:07.000 You know, making people believe that there was a feud.

01:40:11.000 And when there are people online that said like 30,000 views who get their information from these sources, they are living in a paranoid, delusional state.

01:40:19.000 Now, the scary thing is people need to realize this is why I say I'm not worried about Antifa.

01:40:24.000 When I, when famously, and I love this, on the Antifa forums, they call me a liberal.

01:40:30.000 They say Tim Pool's a liberal because the far left know what liberals are and they don't like them.

01:40:33.000 They say, what is behind every liberal is a fascist or something like that?

01:40:36.000 Or, you know, what do they say? 0.98

01:40:38.000 Scratch a liberal and watch a fascist bleed? 1.00

01:40:39.000 Scratch a liberal and watch a fascist bleed. 1.00

01:40:41.000 Something like that. 0.97

01:40:59.000 Like that Sam Seder opened a segment claiming I supported the death penalty, which is absolutely false.

01:41:04.000 Why? I assume he saw a 15 second clip on social media where the actual context was the law prescribes a death penalty for treason and not that I agree with it.

01:41:15.000 He then repeats it to his audience, to millions of people, and they live in this crackpot reality, which I think is spiraling out of control.

01:41:22.000 Anyway, long story short.

01:41:24.000 You can watch the Piers Morgan thing.

01:41:25.000 I think it was pretty wild. And I'm going back on his show at some point.

01:41:30.000 I think next week. Because I'm just sitting there being like, can we just talk about why Walgreens shut down 1,200 locations?

01:41:37.000 7-Eleven shut down 400.

01:41:39.000 Big Lots is closing down.

01:41:40.000 Why groceries are becoming unaffordable.

01:41:42.000 And everybody here is just screaming that Trump is racist or Kamala is speaking in word salad. 0.99

01:41:46.000 We cannot because you're a Trumper and you're a misogynist. 0.99

01:41:48.000 There you go. But I do think that the general result, if you look at the comments, was this lady lost her mind. 0.97

01:41:54.000 And so be it. I want these people to expose themselves for being the irrational people who will lead others to destruction.

01:42:02.000 And so I can sit here and say, we need a working economy for the American people.

01:42:06.000 Let's talk about how to get it. And if they want to scream Tim Pool's far right, let them do it.

01:42:10.000 All right, let's go. Let's go.

01:42:11.000 We'll grab some super chat so I don't keep rambling on this.

01:42:14.000 All right. Jeffrey Jackson says if Kamala actually goes on Rogan, she's intentionally undermining her campaign. 0.85

01:42:20.000 She's looking to flop like a soccer player who got the ball stolen. 1.00

01:42:24.000 I'm saying maybe she wants to lose.

01:42:25.000 I don't know. I think Rogan's a bad fit for her. 0.77

01:42:28.000 I don't think she could handle it.

01:42:29.000 And I think that's the problem right now.

01:42:31.000 They're trying to drop her into situations that other politicians can't handle. 1.00

01:42:34.000 But I think that speaks to the fact that her advisors don't know her that well.

01:42:37.000 They aren't setting her up for success because she can't rise to the occasion of the media opportunities they're presenting to her. 0.76

01:42:43.000 The irony is that Rogan is not a high-intensity interviewer.

01:42:47.000 I can't imagine if I was in a room with Rogan, I'd feel intimidated or I'd feel like he's really trying to grind down whoever he's interviewing.

01:42:55.000 It's just you can't deal with a rational assessment of what your platform is.

01:43:02.000 All right, Simon Ravenscroft says Rogan should say they have to be on the same show.

01:43:10.000 Who said it before the show that he should give them both the same date but not tell them?

01:43:14.000 And then they both show up at the same time?

01:43:17.000 Andrew said that? Alright.

01:43:22.000 Peter Goock says, Tim, have you seen the news story about Tim Waltz?

01:43:24.000 Jesse on fire has a crazy video on it.

01:43:26.000 Not good if true. Horrible.

01:43:28.000 Just like Harris will do on Rogan.

01:43:30.000 No idea. What's the story?

01:43:31.000 Did he throw a football and hit someone in the face or something?

01:43:34.000 No idea. Waffles says, well, the IRS is falsely claiming I owe them $5,000 and stole my tax return.

01:43:41.000 Special thanks to Kamala for casting the tie-breaking vote.

01:43:44.000 I told you guys, I know Waffles heeded that warning because you've been paying attention, but this is what I'm talking about.

01:43:50.000 This is how they do it.

01:43:51.000 They're not going to go after billionaires.

01:43:53.000 Billionaires can fight back. They're going to go to people who can't afford it and they're going to say, oh yeah, no refund for you.

01:43:59.000 You're going to get a bill in the mail and it's going to say, you owe us $326.

01:44:02.000 Do you want to fight it? And a lot of people are going to be like, I don't have time.

01:44:06.000 I give up. And then people are going to have the money ripped from 87,000 new agents.

01:44:13.000 This is going to be wild, man.

01:44:16.000 Placid Saint says, Tim, I saw you in Pierce today.

01:44:18.000 You had the patience of a monk with that woman.

01:44:20.000 She is the reason why no one votes for women and why men and women are leaving the Democratic Party. 1.00

01:44:24.000 That lady has lost her marbles. 1.00

01:44:27.000 Unfortunately, it is an example of a bad woman in a position of influence. 1.00

01:44:34.000 To what degree, I don't know because I don't know who she is.

01:44:36.000 And I think she took offense to that because she kept saying my name.

01:44:38.000 And I was like, why do you keep bringing me up?

01:44:39.000 I never said anything to you. And she's like, my name is such and I don't even remember her name.

01:44:43.000 She's like, my name is and I have a job and you know who I am.

01:44:46.000 And I was like, I have no idea who you are, lady.

01:44:47.000 She did not like that. But you are correct.

01:44:50.000 My point was men don't want to vote for women. 0.99

01:44:54.000 She then goes off like a banshee about misogyny, insulting me and attacking me whenever I said anything to her. 1.00

01:44:59.000 And I'm like, lady, please. Guys are watching this right now and they're going, Tim's right.

01:45:03.000 I will never vote for a woman. And it's because of her. 1.00

01:45:06.000 But maybe that's her point.

01:45:07.000 You know, maybe she's the hero that we need in that before she went on Pierce, she was like, I am going to be as insufferable a female Democrat I can be so that every male viewer will vote Trump. 1.00

01:45:20.000 And she's a secret Trump supporter, you know, but she's taken that she's taken that dive to do the right thing.

01:45:26.000 You know, that's right.

01:45:28.000 Like in Batman when, you know, Batman pretended to be the one who killed Harvey Dent.

01:45:32.000 You know what I'm saying? That's right.

01:45:34.000 Alright, let's grab a couple more. What have we here?

01:45:40.000 ZZamp says, If you want to inspire male voters, please someone recreate Trump as Goku going Super Saiyan 1 for the first time against Kamala, Frieza.

01:45:49.000 The cackle is almost indistinguishable.

01:45:51.000 That's actually a really good idea for millennial guys.

01:45:54.000 Are you familiar with when Goku went Super Saiyan for the first time?

01:45:57.000 Yeah, you're too young. What about you, Phil?

01:45:59.000 No. You're too old. Yep.

01:46:00.000 But Serge knows...

01:46:02.000 Serge knows. I was a little kid.

01:46:03.000 I was like 9 or 11 watching that.

01:46:06.000 For those that don't know it's an anime, you know what Dragon Ball Z is.

01:46:08.000 Come on. Goku is fighting Frieza.

01:46:11.000 Frieza, in the middle of the fight, murders Goku's best friend, and then Goku goes blind with rage.

01:46:17.000 And you know what's really fascinating about Dragon Ball Z is that Goku, he's got black hair and brown eyes, but when he gains superpowers, his hair turns blonde and his eyes turn blue.

01:46:27.000 Just, you know, whatever.

01:46:29.000 I don't know why Japan decided that was the thing that shows you were very powerful, but okay.

01:46:33.000 And Goku then beats the ever-living crap out of Frieza, and Frieza gets sliced in half, and, you know, that's the story.

01:46:40.000 Anyway, remember when that politician—I can't remember who it was—did—what did he do?

01:46:45.000 Attack on Titan? But he had the Titans as, like, Democrats.

01:46:49.000 And so it was a Republican face slicing the necks of these gigantic, monstrous Democrats. 0.80

01:46:54.000 And they were like, this is a call for violence. 0.95

01:46:57.000 It's not okay. And you can't do this.

01:46:59.000 And then, you know, he took it down or something.

01:47:01.000 I can't remember what happened. But the best meme ever was Attack on Hill.

01:47:05.000 And it's Attack on Titan, but it's Hank Hill flying through the air fighting gigantic Titan Bill Dautreve.

01:47:14.000 Jacob Alley says, Great men do not seek power.

01:47:16.000 They have power thrust upon them.

01:47:18.000 Lieutenant Commander Worf, Season 7, Episode 22.

01:47:21.000 Based. Hey, the Boomers gave us The Next Generation. 0.96

01:47:24.000 There you go. They did. Man, what an epic show.

01:47:29.000 Alright, Mauricio91 says, why throw us under the bus on peers?

01:47:32.000 You don't know any good reason why black men would vote for Trump.

01:47:36.000 Misogyny? Are you kidding me? 0.96

01:47:37.000 We have the same reasons you do, Tim.

01:47:39.000 Get F'd. When did I say that? I didn't say that.

01:47:41.000 You must have been listening to somebody else.

01:47:42.000 I said, a lot of young black men are telling people they're going to vote for Trump, but does that mean they're actually going to turn out to vote for him?

01:47:49.000 Young people don't turn out to vote, so why would this be any different? 1.00

01:47:52.000 We've heard this in 2016 and 2020 and now today.

01:47:55.000 Trump's winning the black vote.

01:47:56.000 I remember this. And then it didn't happen.

01:47:59.000 They're certainly shying away from Democrats, but Trump's support for black voters in the polls is still 15 percent, so we will see.

01:48:04.000 But I never said they have any good reason to vote for black men. 1.00

01:48:06.000 That's not my quote. That's somebody else.

01:48:09.000 All right. Doug Rutledge says, Phil is right.

01:48:14.000 I hate being called Dougie.

01:48:16.000 There you go. You know what's really fascinating, too, is, like, no one's ever called me Timmy.

01:48:22.000 Ever? My mom.

01:48:24.000 That's it. That was it.

01:48:27.000 I can't recall ever being called Timmy, except for my mom.

01:48:30.000 And then when I was four, it stopped.

01:48:32.000 So, you know. But it's weird, because Tommy lasts a long time, you know what I mean?

01:48:36.000 Tommy does. Or Johnny's. Sometimes Johnny's last.

01:48:39.000 Johnny goes all through till you die.

01:48:41.000 You could be a Richie, a Johnny.

01:48:43.000 You could be a...

01:48:45.000 I don't know.

01:48:46.000 You can't be a Billy. You can be a Billy until you're like 16, you know?

01:48:51.000 Bobby. You can be a Bobby.

01:48:55.000 Isn't it really fascinating?

01:48:56.000 Bobby would turn into Rob or Robert.

01:48:58.000 But you can still be called Bobby, like when they say Bobby Kennedy Jr.

01:49:03.000 People will still... But it's more rare.

01:49:06.000 Tommy lasts for a little bit, but Timmy stops at like four years old.

01:49:09.000 Isn't that funny how these... And diminutives work with families.

01:49:12.000 There are things your family might call you that you wouldn't use in a professional setting.

01:49:16.000 Is it a diminutive? Timmy makes my name longer.

01:49:18.000 But it's affectionate.

01:49:20.000 If you're a wealthy or powerful baby boomer, you can use these names way past when you normally would as kind of a joke about it.

01:49:27.000 Where like, I'm Billy Thompson, Senator of Mississippi.

01:49:32.000 Right. Because everyone knows you're rich and powerful anyway.

01:49:35.000 Did they ever call you Ruddy? Not really.

01:49:37.000 Just Rud? Just Rudyard.

01:49:41.000 Alright, let's go.

01:49:43.000 JW's Garage says, I fix carbs daily and make a fortune doing it.

01:49:46.000 Forgotten technology and high demand.

01:49:48.000 Ka-ching. Yeah. I looked it up. 1.00

01:49:50.000 Carburetors have been out of use since the 80s.

01:49:53.000 And I know that there's equipment that still uses them, for sure.

01:49:57.000 I think farm equipment and the tugs at the airport we used had carburetors.

01:50:00.000 That's why it's funny. It's like, I ain't afraid to fix a carburetor.

01:50:03.000 I eat them for breakfast. That's a weird thing most people don't do.

01:50:06.000 It's like a niche thing. Certainly there's money to be made in doing it because it's a rarity.

01:50:11.000 But I think, if you said I worked on an oil rig, but I doubt that guy worked on an oil rig.

01:50:16.000 He was pretty big. He's a big guy.

01:50:19.000 Sean says, Tim, relax.

01:50:20.000 The carburetor guy misspoke. He meant to say carbonara.

01:50:22.000 I eat carbonara for breakfast.

01:50:26.000 I mean, carbonara's pretty good, you know?

01:50:28.000 I'm a fan. Let's grab some more.

01:50:33.000 Based African says, an ex I still discuss politics with confided that she believes if Trump is elected, far-right ideology will become so ingrained in the government that elections and rights will be suspended and the government will use foreign militaries to suppress uprisings because she lives in a paranoid, delusional state. This is where Democrats are.

01:50:51.000 They live in what I would describe as a paranoid, delusional state of reality.

01:50:55.000 Now, of course, there are crazy right-wing conspiracy theorists too, but this is the point I try to stress.

01:51:02.000 The right leadership, it's like, who's the most prominent conservative guy in this country, Ben Shapiro?

01:51:08.000 Yeah, I'm sorry, Ben, but he's boring.

01:51:11.000 I don't mean that disrespectfully.

01:51:12.000 I mean, you turn him on and he tells you the news, you will be adequately informed and you'll hear his opinion.

01:51:17.000 I don't mean boring as an insult.

01:51:19.000 I mean, he is not a guy screaming at the top of his lungs, banging on the walls.

01:51:23.000 He's not threatening anybody.

01:51:24.000 He is a suit-wearing Jewish Orthodox commentator who is very calm and well-mannered and gives his argument.

01:51:34.000 That's the leadership on the right.

01:51:35.000 On the left, you have people going out in the street and saying get in their faces.

01:51:39.000 You have people launching fundraisers for the far left saying Antifa doesn't exist.

01:51:43.000 You're wrong. It's just an idea. Venezuelan gangs, only a handful of them are taking over this country.

01:51:47.000 And on the right, the worst thing... 0.97

01:51:49.000 Donald Trump says, we should have the death penalty for people who, you know, kill people or something like this.

01:51:55.000 And it's like, okay, well, you know, that went a little far, I guess. 0.83

01:51:58.000 Maybe. Some people like the death penalty.

01:51:59.000 It's codified in law. I'm not a fan of it.

01:52:01.000 But Trump's not talking about extrajudicial assassinations like Obama did.

01:52:05.000 So, nobody's perfect, but my point is ultimately this.

01:52:08.000 It is a fringe on the right and a tendency on the left.

01:52:11.000 And it is because there are people on the left who don't consume a healthy news diet.

01:52:16.000 They swim in disinformation while accusing everyone else of doing it.

01:52:21.000 And it's because they don't do research.

01:52:25.000 It's terrifying, actually.

01:52:28.000 All right, we'll grab some more.

01:52:30.000 Joseph Ngo says, kept up with Candace Owens' research on Kamala.

01:52:34.000 I have not. I know that there was a big controversy with Charlemagne because Janet Jackson says Kamala wasn't black or something like that and then Charlemagne asked her about it.

01:52:42.000 Andrew Savoie? How do you pronounce it?

01:52:47.000 I don't know how you kept your composure on Piers Morgan today, but my guy, I have a new respect for you also.

01:52:52.000 Hannah Clare is a superstar. She needs a raise, otherwise you're a misogynist. 1.00

01:52:56.000 Well, you know, that may be.

01:52:57.000 That may be. Look, I've done a lot of panels.

01:53:02.000 When I go on Fox...

01:53:04.000 That never happens. I have never been on a Fox panel where someone's yelling at somebody else like that.

01:53:09.000 I mean, it's happened, I guess.

01:53:11.000 I've been on panel shows, and then I say, well, you know, I think X, Y, and Z, A, B, and C. And then the guy says, sure, but with all due respect, Tim, I think we're going to see this, that, or otherwise.

01:53:20.000 And then I'd be like, okay, fair point, but, you know, I'm going to say I think that's less likely to occur.

01:53:24.000 And they'll say, well, thank you both for coming, and that's the end of it.

01:53:26.000 With all due respect to peers...

01:53:28.000 This is wild! But I think that's what sells, so...

01:53:31.000 He likes that stuff, though. Yeah, but Piers didn't do anything wrong.

01:53:34.000 He was very calm, and he was agreeing with me, like, keep it calm.

01:53:39.000 Like, can we... Why are you attacking him in this way?

01:53:42.000 Like, what are you doing?

01:53:44.000 And I think that Piers is very professional.

01:53:46.000 And so I have agreed to go on again, if you would have me.

01:53:49.000 I thought it was interesting. I feel like with those...

01:53:54.000 You know, I was genuinely thinking, like, let's try and find where I agree with some of these guys and make those topics relevant.

01:54:01.000 And this lady just started attacking me out of nowhere. 1.00

01:54:04.000 I'm like, I don't even know you, lady.

01:54:06.000 She doesn't like being called Lady Angus.

01:54:07.000 Thank you so much. You guys are really kind.

01:54:09.000 NapalmZ says, first time SuperChat. I am so glad you have Rudyard on.

01:54:13.000 With the Civil War predictions, will a Trump win delay or possibly solve the problem?

01:54:17.000 Same question in reverse for Kamala.

01:54:20.000 I don't have a good answer.

01:54:22.000 I think that there's going to be a war either way.

01:54:26.000 I think that if Trump wins, that the right...

01:54:34.000 This is a very brutal thing to say, but I think for a lot of the population, including the political class, they are more worried about the current order continuing than it crashing.

01:54:50.000 So we shall see what happens.

01:54:53.000 Alright, the great Von Braun says, here's to Hannah Clare, wife and I are in the hospital after having our second baby yesterday, so that was my wife's idea.

01:55:00.000 This is hilarious. I love that this is becoming a thing.

01:55:02.000 Congratulations on Second Kid.

01:55:04.000 I hope everyone's happy and healthy.

01:55:06.000 Remember, you're 0.3 children away from replacement rate.

01:55:09.000 There you go. Yeah, I can do all that.

01:55:26.000 So, I was playing Civ 6 yesterday, actually.

01:55:29.000 Is that the new one?

01:55:31.000 I don't know. So, I haven't played video games in years.

01:55:35.000 I started playing them last month.

01:55:38.000 I have a campaign I've taken over, as the Romans have taken over all of Europe, half of Russia, most of America, South Africa, etc. 1.00

01:55:44.000 It's fun. The Civilization games are directionally pretty good.

01:55:51.000 They're pretty good at articulating history, especially for someone who's not a historian.

01:55:56.000 They're doing as good a job as I could expect them to.

01:56:00.000 If I were going to get into a really schizo level of analysis, I'll say empires rise and fall, and you have to deal with revolutions and disputes, and they miss a lot of the humanity, and they have a very... 1.00

01:56:14.000 Like, wig notion of history.

01:56:16.000 And the wig notion of history is that number goes up equal world gooder.

01:56:19.000 And that stems from the industrial revolution of infinite progress.

01:56:22.000 But if I were to sit in front of the game designers, I wouldn't tell them any of that because I have no idea how you'd translate any of that stuff into a game.

01:56:30.000 The second thing, Lysenkoism.

01:56:31.000 That's interesting, where...

01:56:34.000 Yeah.

01:56:37.000 biology they had in Soviet Russia and it was because Stalin was buddies with the guy who did it and it also had implications they wanted for Marxism where Lysenko was basing it off a French thinker I forget his Lamarck. It's Lamarckianism where, for example, if you have wheat and then force the wheat to go through a lot of bad winters, the wheat will alter itself to the conditions.

01:57:03.000 So let's say Lamarckianism, you shove a white person in Texas.

01:57:07.000 Within five generations, the white person is going to be looking like they're from – like they're Middle Eastern or looking like they're Mexican.

01:57:13.000 That's not the case. Lamarckianism has been proven wrong except for some test case, some like edge cases.

01:57:20.000 And Stalin wanted that because Lamarckianism fit with the blank slate that human nature is naturally perfectible.

01:57:28.000 And so Lamarckianism failed because they tried to implement all Soviet agriculture under that model and it just didn't work.

01:57:35.000 And then also it destroyed Soviet biology where the fields the Soviets were advanced in were physics where there's very – at least there are political ramifications to physics.

01:57:46.000 They're not obvious to anyone.

01:57:48.000 So the Soviets were really advanced in aeronautical stuff and physics because there are no political ramifications.

01:57:53.000 But anyone who stood against— That line in biology was just purged from the Soviet Union.

01:58:02.000 And for those who saw the last video I released, I actually think Western academia has done something similar in our lifetimes, that there are an aggregate of so many lies that have been pushed for decades.

01:58:15.000 The last lifetime since World War II that we will look back on in the future the same way we look back on Lysenkoism. 0.54

01:58:23.000 I want to just say, too, have your kids play Civilization.

01:58:26.000 I'm not kidding. I mean, once they're old enough to start to understand because there's a lot of important lessons to be learned, such as...

01:58:34.000 One day, your seemingly ally, a neighboring country, says, it shows a little avatar guy, and he's smiling, and he says, we've come bearing gifts.

01:58:42.000 And you're like, wow, thank you. And the next turn, his military is attacking your capital, and you're like, what?

01:58:46.000 And it's an important life lesson about borders, culture, technology, history.

01:58:51.000 You learn a lot, and then ultimately you learn sometimes people are evil and will stab you in the back for no reason.

01:58:56.000 But that's not the only thing. I played Civ II when I was a kid, and you learn a whole lot.

01:59:02.000 And I especially love... I played Civ IV for a bit.

01:59:03.000 I think it's the one where Leonard Nimoy has all those great quotes.

01:59:06.000 Yeah. You discover science.

01:59:08.000 As a kid, you're learning all these things, learning about the wonders of the world and all that stuff.

01:59:11.000 It really is a fascinating game.

01:59:13.000 It's very educational. My father had a rule that I could only play strategy games until age 15.

01:59:18.000 What? Yeah, he said I wasn't allowed to play shooter games or RPG games until I was 15 because he said I want you to play games that form your mind well when you're young.

01:59:28.000 Well, that's good. All right, everybody, if you haven't already, smash the like button, subscribe, share the show with everyone you know.
