00:02:53.000So there's a lot of questions we have over this breaking story right now about a U.S. speedboat getting shot up by Cuba and what that could mean for the United States.
00:06:58.000Share the show with everyone you know.
00:07:00.000Literally, if everybody took the URL, posted it everywhere on the internet right now, we'd have the biggest show in the world, and that would be great.
00:07:06.000So if you really do like what we do, please share the show.
00:07:08.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more, we got Jake Botch.
00:08:38.000They say in a statement, Cuba's interior ministry said the speedboat's passengers opened fire on a Coast Guard vessel that approached them, which I don't believe.
00:08:59.000U.S. will make determinations based on the facts.
00:09:01.000Right now, we're still gathering facts.
00:09:04.000He said the boat was not carrying U.S. government personnel.
00:09:07.000Cuba's government said it did not know the identities of those on board the vessel, nor what it was doing in the area, and that an investigation has been launched to clarify the event.
00:09:14.000In a statement posted X, the ministry said the Florida registered vessel with the registration number FL7726SH was detected near Keo Falconez in the country's central villa, Clara Province, on Wednesday morning.
00:09:28.000When a Cuban boat carrying five members of the ministry's border guard approached the vessel for identification, the crew of the violating speedboat opened fire and wounded the Cuban commander.
00:09:37.000As a consequence of the confrontation, as of the time of this report, four aggressors on the foreign vessel were killed and six injured.
00:09:43.000Those who were injured were evacuated.
00:09:45.000Now, the important context here is also this: CNN reporting last week: no food, no fuel, no tourists under U.S. pressure.
00:09:56.000Since we seized back, that's an important thing to understand.
00:10:00.000Since we seized back our oil assets from Venezuela that were stolen from us, even though we had a treaty in 2009, okay, this is an important, I'm going to say it again.
00:10:10.000We had a bunch of oil investments in Venezuela.
00:11:01.000This guy, to be honest, if they came back and said, actually, it was a bunch of Venezuelan narco-drug guys on a speedboat selling drugs, I'd be like, well, you know, that's been happening too.
00:11:12.000But I'm curious if you guys think this means, let's just, I'll just crank the knob all the way to 11 and rip it off.
00:12:53.000I'm definitely not liberal, but what all these people were fighting for, that we just went in there and took their shit and just, you know.
00:13:28.000So the U.S. had a treaty with Venezuela for a long time.
00:13:30.000Venezuela was one of the most prosperous, it was the most prosperous nation in South America.
00:13:35.000And our oil companies went there under our normal trade agreement and said, we're going to invest billions of dollars building oil refineries, bringing in oil tankers.
00:13:45.000And then the country voted for socialism.
00:13:48.000And again, I'm not being cute or insulting.
00:13:49.000It literally they voted for the socialist candidate, Chavez, who then, I think it was 2009, announced the nationalization of all oil assets that were built, paid for, and owned by U.S. interests.
00:14:02.000The U.S. government said, I guess they just stole $20 billion worth of our oil infrastructure and did nothing about it.
00:14:09.000Then Venezuela started pumping that oil, burning down their economy with weird commie practices like mandating jobs that don't need to exist, and then using that oil to give to our enemies, largely to Cuba, but also they've been trading with China, Russia, Iran, et cetera.
00:14:58.000Even with, like, if you watch long form shows like this, you might get it, right?
00:15:02.000But if you're just watching, if you're an average person that gets, you know, maybe an hour of news a week when you're making breakfast or throwing.
00:15:11.000You're just 30 seconds of an hour show.
00:15:14.000And so to your point, it is, you know, most people don't realize the history with most of the things that are going on internationally.
00:15:23.000And believe me, most of the stuff the U.S. is doing when it comes to foreign policy and stuff, it's not been created in the past six months.
00:15:30.000I mean, the whole change of focus from Europe to South America, which I mean, I'm not even sure if you know that's going on.
00:15:37.000So the U.S. used to really be close with or close with Europe.
00:15:40.000There's been significant changes in Europe and not only the policies that Europe has, but also the makeup of Europe because of all the immigration from like the Middle East and from North Africa.
00:15:49.000And so the U.S. is looking at Europe and they're saying, well, they kind of don't really share our values.
00:15:56.000We're going to refocus onto South America and we're going to really kind of enforce the Monroe Doctrine.
00:16:01.000I mean, most people don't even know what the Monroe Doctrine is.
00:16:04.000I'm looking at a guy who don't know what the Monroe Doctrine is.
00:16:06.000James Monroe said that we don't want Europe meddling in the affairs of our hemisphere.
00:16:12.000So basically the Western hemisphere, North, South America, the U.S. is like saying, hey, Europe, keep your business in Europe and in Asia and stuff, and we'll keep our business here.
00:16:20.000We don't want you influencing countries here.
00:16:23.000And so that had kind of gone away for a long time.
00:16:25.000But now the U.S. has decided that South American countries actually have more in common with the United States than Europe will likely have in, say, 25, 30 years.
00:16:35.000I did kind of hear about that with the hemisphere thing.
00:16:37.000Here's a crazy history of the communist stuff down there that a lot of people don't know.
00:16:42.000When Che and Fidel were working together, they were actually guarding the oil fields for Standard Oil.
00:16:55.000And Fidel basically ran Che away because Che seemed to be a committed communist.
00:17:00.000But there's a good book by Servando Gonzalez on this.
00:17:04.000He argues that the Council on Foreign Relations, because they always favored a synthesis of communism with capitalism, that they actually wanted Fidel to take Cuba, even though there was interest with certain elements of the organized crime that took over, or that opposed Batista when they took over.
00:17:24.000So basically, organized crime, the CIA, they wanted resorts in Cuba.
00:17:28.000And that's what Godfather 2 is about, if you watch Godfather 2.
00:17:31.000They overthrow Batista and Fidel comes to power.
00:17:36.000But the question is, well, if we have a base there, why did that ever happen?
00:17:40.000And Gonzalez has a thesis that the Council on Foreign Relations had a bunch of communists amongst their members that actually wanted Cuba to be communist to have an excuse to promote the dialectic down in South America.
00:18:05.000Yeah, you know, today's political debates are largely, I would describe it as the people who actually know what's going on and the people who have no idea what's going on.
00:18:15.000So the Democrats are composed largely of an ignorant voter bloc that believes what they're being told by the Democrat politicians and Democrat politicians that are intentionally lying.
00:18:25.000The Trump voter bloc is a mixture of different political ideologies that often disagree quite a bit, but know what's going on in the world.
00:18:34.000So you'll get, you know, we call them disaffected liberals, people who used to be Democrats who are now like, y'all have gone crazy.
00:18:40.000My favorite part of last night with Donald Trump's State of the Union is when he pointed to the Democrats and said, these people are crazy because they're trying to give children sex changes.
00:18:50.000You'd think, you'd think going to somebody and being like, don't you think we can draw the line at giving a child a sex change?
00:18:58.000And the response from most of the Democrat voters is, that's not happening because they listen to their politicians who are lying.
00:19:06.000One of my favorite things, actually, I fact-checked this this morning.
00:19:09.000I'll pull it up for you guys when we get into the CNN, Trump State of the Union address.
00:19:13.000But Trump says, like, they want to kidnap your kids.
00:19:17.000He said, they want to take your kids from your parents and then transition their genders without the parents' consent.
00:19:24.000There's a big piece of news right now where like 16 states are filing a suit saying we can't allow that to happen.
00:19:29.000And all of these fact checks get written where they're like, no, Washington did not pass a law saying they can kidnap your kids to give them sex change.
00:19:37.000The law basically just says if a child is a runaway, they can provide shelter and they have to inform the parents of the runaway's whereabouts unless they're seeking gender-affirming care.
00:19:52.000So they put one headline saying, no, it's not happening, and then literally three paragraphs down say, yeah, absolutely it is happening.
00:19:58.000And so I just got to say, bro, I don't care if you're a communist where you're literally like, we should seize all of the means of production.
00:20:06.000They just go, yeah, but the weird thing the Democrats are doing with child sex changes like and the woke stuff, nah, none of that.
00:20:11.000If you're like economically far left, socialist, communist, or whatever, but you're not violent and all you do is have, have cordial debates that we're friends.
00:20:59.000Maybe do something similar to what they did in Venezuela while we have a lot of our military assets in Iran and everybody's distracted right now.
00:21:06.000Everybody's pitching and moaning about Iran, Iran, this, Iran, that.
00:22:44.000Well, I think also geopolitically, Cuba is particularly important because if you look at the map in the Gulf of Mexico, the main exit is having to go north or south of Cuba.
00:22:54.000Cuba is a sort of Taiwan equivalent, if you will, of a way of blocking trade and shipments from large parts of the United States.
00:23:02.000So part of the reason why China wants to take back Taiwan is to get those critical shipping lanes.
00:23:06.000If you look to go through the Gulf of Mexico, you have to pass Cuba.
00:23:10.000And it's sort of, you know, an island just directly a threat to the United States.
00:23:14.000And then I think the leftovers from the Cuban missile crisis and then also so many refugees, Cuban refugees that left Cuba, came to America, continue to influence our politics right now.
00:23:23.000Marco Rubio is famously a descendant of Cuban immigrants.
00:23:28.000So yeah, that plays into a lot of this.
00:23:31.000He's been famously a hawkish senator from Florida prior to this, where there is a large Cuban population.
00:24:13.000But if we talk, if we said we're going to turn to a smoldering crater, you'd be like, is the only reason, given the Monero doctrine, though, the only reason that the U.S. never took Cuba from the communists, because like we have Guantanamo Bay there, is it just because of the ramifications of what it would do in other countries?
00:25:07.000That's how it works in actual politics.
00:25:08.000Neocon is a tribal reference to a group of people, but there are ideologies that people would then associate with what we would call neoliberal and neoconservative.
00:26:17.000But then based off of their worldview, we now have this general idea of what these words mean.
00:26:21.000So you vote for the Mitt Romneys, the McCains, you get invasion of Iran.
00:26:26.000Hey, surprise, surprise, Trump might get us that anyway.
00:26:29.000Neoconservative is out of the UK, Bernard Lewis, who is the father of Samuel Huntington, who wrote books that influenced the Bush administration.
00:26:41.000So the Bush, Cheney, those are like sort of the arch neocons, but it's actually out of the UK from Bernard Lewis.
00:26:47.000And then they are also influenced by Leo Strauss, who was influenced by Hitler.
00:27:44.000I mean, if there's a barren wasteland and a company is like, we need to import a bunch of people and there's no industry here, then they have to create means by which people can choose to buy food.
00:27:54.000But it's not classical libertarian free market if everybody has to shop at the company town.
00:28:18.000Again, so like if I personally have a private piece of land and I hire a bunch of people and they're like, hey, there's no restaurants anywhere.
00:30:06.000So then if I, as the landowner and the company owner, then say, I will open a restaurant on the property from which you can purchase goods, that's the beginning of communism.
00:30:14.000So, but you're describing a situation of a small microcosm where there's no competition.
00:31:52.000If we're talking about the structures of communism by which there is a private committee, and there's two ways we can look at it, your argument seems to fuse together both the authoritarian dictatorship components and the economic – That's monopoly capitalism.
00:32:08.000If the argument is people can voluntarily choose to come and work for a company, but there is no competition because there's no market reason for it.
00:32:27.000Again, bro, I got to tell you, if the argument is I have no choice in my circumstances, therefore I should get public rights, it's literally this guy's a communist.
00:32:39.000Well, you can say that, but in a company town, especially like in situations when in the 1800s company towns were being set up, you didn't have the ability to just leave, right?
00:34:02.000The origin of the left is the left aisle in the French Revolution referring to those who wanted a socialist, anti-monarchist, and the right wanted a top-down monarchist system.
00:35:11.000Sure, but that's immaterial to the argument being made.
00:35:14.000It's not because you're saying that you're a socialist, you're a Marxist, but what I'm arguing would be the same as any medieval village philosophy.
00:35:21.000And they weren't Marxists or socialists back in the Middle Ages.
00:35:25.000Okay, again, the core of your argument is there's a private landowner.
00:35:31.00020 years later, there's now 300 people working in this land.
00:35:36.000We now transfer the private rights from the landowner to a communal function.
00:35:41.000Again, it's complex when you have something like the total ownership of something like a water supply, right?
00:35:47.000So when you have people that need that, that's different than a situation where Nestle's trying to buy an entire country's private water supply.
00:35:55.000So again, the issue was company towns.
00:36:48.000So I argue that the rights of man are derived from the will or the duties God bestows upon man.
00:36:53.000The requirements that we have from God, which is be fruitful and multiply, require a handful of things for which we recognize in the United States that we allow other people to do.
00:37:03.000Fully recognizing that other groups have different ideas of what rights are.
00:37:07.000So I would argue rights are we need to be able to communicate, we need to be able to protect ourselves, and we need to be secure in our possessions.
00:37:13.000These are principal rights that we struggle to survive without.
00:37:18.000As the basis of this is look at communism in general in the Soviet Union.
00:37:23.000And when you don't have property rights, congratulations, look what happens.
00:37:26.000When you have mass monopolization and oligopoly, you get something similar.
00:37:30.000So in a simple sense, certainly it is my moral worldview and faith-based structures that define what I think someone has an inherent claim to.
00:37:40.000Progressives think you have an inherent claim to someone else's labor, which would just, I would describe as slavery.
00:37:45.000So when it comes to the idea of private land ownership, the argument is fully understanding population expansion can come to a point where some people will never own land.
00:37:54.000But the idea is I need to be secure in my possessions to know and prepare for harsh winters, for instability, so that I can survive, so that I can be fruitful, and that I can multiply.
00:38:40.000I would say historically, based upon what we have seen throughout the world and what we think we know, the Christian moral worldview has been dramatically superior to other moral structures.
00:38:50.000That being said, I am not a Christian and I don't believe in the faith structures they have.
00:38:56.000However, I have recognized that the moral structures of a Christian society tend to make life more successful for individuals, which is ultimately beneficial to the standard function of life, which is organizing complex, organizing free energy into complex systems.
00:39:11.000So just utilitarianism, because it works well.
00:40:07.000So when you say something like you're utilitarian, and then I bring up, we do not take immoral actions against an individual for the betterment of the.
00:42:42.000So if we go back to, again, the roots of science, we can take a look at a few things.
00:42:46.000Free energy tends to coalesce into complex systems, starting with the baser elements, or we can say quirks, I'm sorry, quarks into particles, into atoms, into elements, into compounds.
00:43:00.000At some point, for some reason, you get gravity, likely because if you're familiar with our current understanding of gravity, mass creates attraction, et cetera.
00:43:10.000And this results in certain masses coming together.
00:43:13.000Eventually, you'll get something like a gas giant.
00:43:14.000You'll get something that compresses, then ignites fusion, and you get a sun.
00:43:19.000Earth is the result of certain things slamming together, creating a bunch of complex elements through process of fusion, et cetera.
00:43:25.000And then at some point on Earth, for some reason, again, we don't really know for sure, these molecules and compounds start forming self-replicating proteins.
00:43:34.000Again, in modern science, the one thing we recognize is that there is greater entropy and limited entropy, negative entropy, can only exist in a slightly greater entropic system.
00:43:44.000But we do see free energy organizing into complex systems throughout the earth and in the universe.
00:43:50.000Eventually, these complex systems ultimately become multi-the-cellular organisms, single cells, and multicellular organisms, by which they then create complex organism systems.
00:44:02.000Now you've got a squirrel planting a nut growing a tree.
00:44:04.000The tree then drops the food for the squirrel.
00:44:05.000And now you've got two distinct life forms that form a complex system within its own free energy.
00:44:11.000And then we get to the craziest part with humanity in the creation of abstract complex systems.
00:44:15.000That is, humans give names to things that don't exist anywhere in reality except in the energy transference between the mind and the vibrations between their mouths.
00:44:24.000So what we then see is the function of life is negative entropy within a larger entropic system.
00:44:31.000If we, as life, which are driven to reproduce and are, and we typically associate all of those things with being good and enjoyable, like having kids, having Christmas morning, then we track, based on what we have seen throughout the earth, what is the most beneficial to that?
00:44:49.000They've certainly been massively successful, have lots of kids.
00:44:52.000We can take a look at Africa and say, certainly, that is beneficial.
00:44:55.000However, I would make the argument that the European cultures that developed science, space travel, cures for diseases, and then effectively colonized the whole planet, as well as the Asian cultures, have proven greatly that these moral worldviews lend themselves greater to the ectropic system within the entropy.
00:45:13.000And then we would say, well, it's maybe a toss-up, but I do think that the American Judeo-Christian or just Christian moral values, which include things like private property, have lended itself to the formation of complex systems.
00:45:28.000That is, life expansion and all the things that we cherish in the world.
00:45:33.000And thus, those are the things we aim for.
00:45:36.000Certainly, these things are very subjective, and some people believe other things.
00:45:39.000Some people might think it's better to watch the whole world burn because humans are a virus that spread like a plague.
00:45:44.000I don't believe that, but I do recognize I can't convince other people, nor do I know everything.
00:45:49.000So, in the end, I ultimately conclude: if we want people to have families and have kids, private land ownership is probably the best thing we can do.
00:45:57.000That's a good story, but it doesn't get to grounding or justification for why the right is actually something that is grounded in God.
00:49:15.000Well, if the world is made by God, if we have ethics being made in the image of God based on the Ten Commandments, these kinds of things, then it makes sense why things are wrong and right.
00:50:00.000You said that that's why you believe it.
00:50:02.000That was the fact that based on what we think we know right now, and there may be better structures we discover in the future, this seems to be the best course of action for promoting human existence.
00:51:33.000just means is it binding everywhere at all times you said it was subjective to me and i said you said that I said, no, I recognize other people believe other things.
00:54:31.000I disagree, and we are allowed to disagree that we have two different moral religious worldviews, and that is the inherent disagreement.
00:54:39.000So in my moral worldview, I believe there is a basis in private ownership because if you are to fulfill God's will of having children, having families, you need a way to control your resources so that you can do that without it being taken from you.
00:54:53.000I actually think we agree on that point.
00:55:38.000I saw that headline and I was like, geez, it must have been a pretty awful State of the Union address, guys.
00:55:44.000As it turns out, instead of headlining the article with Trump's State of the Union viewed positively by masses, which is actually what they concluded, they tried to still make it negative.
00:56:01.000Indeed, my friends, the polls show 63% of people polled by CNN viewed Trump's State of the Union positively.
00:56:11.000Yet, of course, and this is for you, Jake, when you're talking about how regular people don't know this stuff, when you read a headline that says some people are unconvinced by Trump, according to our poll, the immediate assumption most people make is, wow, Trump must not have done a good job.
00:56:27.000When in actuality, the poll is Trump won two to one.
00:58:01.000I guess if the argument is Democrats don't care about the State of the Union address and tuned out, that would be a great point for them to make.
00:58:10.000Look, I do think it was, he did put on a good performance.
00:58:13.000Trump, always the showman, did a really good job, I think, creating a lot of images for Republicans in the midterm with the constant like applaud and then the Democrats not applauding and the contrast between the two, especially when they're bringing up things for like obviously bringing in the Olympians too.
00:58:29.000But when they referenced Ina, the woman who got stabbed to death on public transit in Charlotte, and then the Democrats didn't stand up, I think that made for a poll image.
00:59:11.000And this is why, you know, after this speech, you know, Donald Trump says at the speech, he goes, stand up if you agree that the duty of, what do you say, of government is to protect the American citizens, not illegal immigrants.
01:03:06.000You'll see it all over the place because people do this.
01:03:08.000And Navy Pier does a private firework ceremony every weekend, but they ended the 4th of July celebration for the city because it is being run by communists who hate America.
01:03:17.000You guys turned into Detroit over there.
01:03:19.000So this whole time you've been talking about sports.
01:03:21.000I thought you were talking about big gay dudes that are hairy.
01:03:58.000And that was the trick people like me fell for in 2008, 2010, where it's like, yeah, man, I don't care.
01:04:05.000And then the reality was, and I, and I did kind of know this because my family owned a coffee shop on North Halston, on Halston and Waveland.
01:05:17.000Like, I was walking with, I had a handkerchief, and now I'm thinking, like, half of the city was seeing my handkerchief coming out of my pocket.
01:07:15.000He was like, I think now there's a common understanding for most of the General Assembly, they're not going to be able to build in the city of Chicago.
01:07:24.000For at least a year and a half, there's been a significant effort by the Bears as well as Chicago lawmakers and others to try and figure out if the Bears could build what they need to build in the city of Chicago.
01:07:32.000They looked and they, I think, gave the old college try, so to speak, to try and find a place where within the city of Chicago and they couldn't.
01:07:40.000So that's why I think we're down to the question of whether they're going to build in Arlington Heights or they're going to build something in the state of Indiana.
01:07:46.000He said it's very hard to find in a dense city, a dense city like the city of Chicago, he said.
01:07:53.000This is, I remember when the Redskins lost their name.
01:07:57.000They lost their mascot and they lost their logo.
01:10:05.000They want to destroy our history and burn it to the ground.
01:10:08.000And what I see with Illinois and Chicago is, admittedly, okay, I'm going to be logical for you guys.
01:10:15.000Not the most egregious thing you can do.
01:10:17.000Like literally tearing down Jefferson is.
01:10:20.000But in my heart, taking Chicago out of the Bears is like igniting, it's like ripping the souls out of a generation and smashing it with the hammer.
01:10:30.000It's like taking New York out of the Yankees.
01:11:04.000Like you just said, you know, they hate America and everything.
01:11:06.000Okay, so well, if you have it your way, if you have everything your way and everything you want, what is America if they get what they want?
01:11:14.000I don't think it's that the Democrats, I wouldn't necessarily say the Democrats liberals.
01:11:19.000The argument is there is a faction, a political faction in this country that hates this country, views it as evil, and wants to destroy it.
01:11:26.000Many, many of much of this is guided by manipulations and propaganda from overt communists and socialists who literally want to destroy our economic system and create a communist system.
01:11:36.000They use these arguments like racism as a vehicle to trick people into voting against their interests.
01:11:42.000So Democrats as politicians, they're just, you know, like the Democratic Party I would describe as basically just like if you took 200 Candace Owens and told them to go campaign.
01:11:54.000They're going to just spread around like nasty little NPC and go into each campaign district and just say whatever needs to be said to get the votes.
01:12:53.000It truly is that we are irredeemably white supremacists and founded.
01:12:58.000Not only that, the Bill of Rights is not humanistic or maybe you'd want to call them Christian principles, but like beyond that, that they are fundamentally white supremacists.
01:13:07.000But look, they don't actually believe that.
01:13:12.000If you actually talk to any prominent organizer on the left, I don't mean prominent, they're famous, they will outright tell you they don't think it's white supremacy, but it's a vehicle by which stupid people react.
01:13:26.000Yeah, and that's because postmodernism has taken over the left and it's all about power.
01:13:31.000So, you know, ever since the 60s and with like Foucault and stuff, like they, the fall of the Soviet Union was a big deal, right?
01:13:38.000So it used to be that vulgar Marxism was going to be, which is like economic Marxism, the classes, money class, the property owners versus the bourgeoisie, the working people.
01:13:48.000I'm sorry, yeah, work versus the working people.
01:13:51.000And then when the Soviet Union proved that it didn't, you know, that it didn't work and capitalism kind of made it clear that even the workers could have a good life.
01:14:02.000Then you had people like Herbert Marcuse saying, oh, hey, look, this is all false consciousness.
01:15:11.000Even in my liberal college classes when we did American history, they made us watch this video of an interview from probably the 60s or 70s with one of the last living slaves who was still, you know, around.
01:15:22.000And he said, well, you know, I remember it.
01:16:01.000So how many people need 100 workers working for cheap?
01:16:04.000The other thing is they never really asked themselves these questions of like, how did slaves buy their own freedom?
01:16:11.000Because the origin of slavery was that there was an indentured servant to a black man who could not pay off the debt no matter how much like a lifetime of work would not pay off the money owed.
01:16:21.000So a court ruled he would remain indentured for life, which created de facto slavery.
01:16:26.000And then, of course, certainly people were bought and sold.
01:16:28.000All of that was miserably bad, but it was much more complex than you'll get from the average left.
01:17:37.000And some countries around the world still have literal slavery.
01:17:41.000A lot of Middle Eastern countries and North African countries are heavily involved in slavery.
01:17:45.000And then there's the de facto slavery and things like happening in the country of like Qatar, where it's like literally slave labor where these people have their passports and whatnot taken away from them.
01:17:55.000So to go back to your original question, though, is what was the left or liberals' goal in the United States?
01:18:02.000And for the left, I do think it genuinely is to weaken the United States from inside because they believe that many of our enemies are righteous.
01:18:09.000So I do think leftists and communists in our country do believe that, you know, the CCP is righteous, that they do think China is good.
01:18:17.000And they look to them as a model of something that is good and just in the world.
01:18:21.000And then they look at us as evil and such.
01:18:23.000And a lot of their rhetoric actually comes from the CCP.
01:19:58.000So what you end up with is economic instability in Europe.
01:20:04.000And then you get authoritarian traditionalists, fascists and Nazis.
01:20:08.000they're distinct from each other but similar and the communists which are internationalist uh uh progressives that want to erase the the difference you know people like you're a fascist you're a communist They're both authoritarian governmental structures where an authority tells you what you can or cannot do.
01:20:27.000So when it comes to the Nazis and the fascists, functionally, economically, I'd argue we're splitting hairs.
01:20:36.000They're both authoritarian, but the communists want to erase your history and they believe everyone's a blank slate who should be wearing a great jumpsuit.
01:20:45.000The Nazis are my nation and my people are the best and we should preserve our history and traditions.
01:20:50.000What makes my grandmother call Trump a fascist?
01:22:17.000One of the principal arguments was it's the lucrative merger of corporation and state.
01:22:21.000And one of the reasons people conflate the Italian fascists with the German Nazis was that while you'll hear a lot of people say that the Nazis were socialists, it's the National Socialist Party, the left will argue they weren't actually socialists because it wasn't a command economy the way they want communists to be.
01:22:35.000But the structure of the German economy when the Nazis took over was, I would describe it the way our economy functioned from 2018 until like 2022, which is if you don't adhere to the cultural mandates, we will end your company.
01:22:51.000So that's why you end up with people bending the knee.
01:23:32.000Communism is more kick your door in and kind of kill you if you don't do it.
01:23:35.000Like the fascists and the Nazis are very, very similar in the general description, the fascists being the merger of corporation and state, where the state would basically go to the corporation and be like, you're going to do what we want you to do.
01:23:46.000The Nazis basically did the same thing.
01:23:49.000The argument, however, was that it was cultural enforcement.
01:28:06.000So basically, what happens with the Korean War is China was with the North and the U.S. with the South, and they went back and forth and then formed this line, the DMZ.
01:28:13.000And China's attitude is like, we do not want the United States on our doorstep.
01:28:28.000When I grew up hearing about the Vietnam War and all this stuff, it's painted in modern history as like this terrible unjust thing that never should have happened.
01:28:36.000And while I do largely agree it was a mismanaged, botched thing, we used a false flag to enter it.
01:28:41.000I then go back and think, but isn't it good to stop the spread of communism if the United States was facing a imagine what would have happened if the U.S. did not win the Cold War?
01:28:51.000We'd be surrounded on all fronts by a unipolar communist Soviet force of people that are half-starved and they're trying to steal our stuff like a zombified planet.
01:29:45.000Sending by draft young men to go fight in a war they didn't understand under false pretexts is wrong.
01:29:52.000And it was a failed operation, flubbed miserably by terrible military leaders.
01:29:57.000So I think we get to benefit from the hindsight.
01:29:59.000If shit hit the wall in Korea and North Korea just managed to completely take over, then all of that would also be true for Korea.
01:30:06.000So it's hard to like, you know, you're kind of judging with Korea.
01:30:10.000I don't believe we staked a false flag to justify our occupation invasion.
01:30:14.000No, it was because the North reinvaded.
01:30:17.000But even then, some people would say it would be unjust to use a draft to defend a foreign nation when we weren't being attacked ourselves in Korea.
01:30:25.000But I think still that the Korean war was justified.
01:30:27.000If we had completely lost and South Korea never had been a thing, I think people would be saying the same thing about South Korea.
01:30:32.000Well, you know, fair point hindsight is 2020.
01:30:34.000I don't think, I think Vietnam certainly has its problems today, but things have cooled off quite a bit.
01:30:40.000I certainly think communism with the Vietnam War.
01:30:48.000Well, I mean, to be honest, communism still exists in some form, but what China is is some kind of like I don't think it's fair to call China communism.
01:31:02.000Oh, they definitely think of themselves as the idea is that the Chinese Communist Party said we need to allow certain forms of economics, but we need to maintain absolute authority.
01:31:12.000So they'll let people file to open a business and try it out.
01:31:16.000But if you get to a certain size, the Chinese Communist Party gets an office in your building to make sure you're operating under their purview.
01:31:46.000The ideology they have, not the function of their governance.
01:31:49.000Meaning, if you had a United States that operated similarly under a Christian nationalist structure, many Americans on the right would completely agree with it.
01:31:58.000If the argument was run your business, do what you want.
01:32:01.000When you get to a certain size, you're going to have an ideological minder, but it's to the betterment of the Christian ideals.
01:32:09.000Many people on the right would be like, yeah, I'm okay with it.
01:32:11.000Yeah, and that sounds exactly like China, but the point is, if you replace the ideology of China with Christianity, a lot of Christians would be in favor of it.
01:33:26.000No, I think those are all Western projects.
01:33:28.000So anything that is threatening to the CCP is what, therefore, a CIA-backed project?
01:33:33.000These are all just separatists who are going to want to be assimilated.
01:33:37.000Well, in the case of the Fallen Gong, they may not be directly run by the CIA, but they would be supported by the West as something aggressive.
01:33:45.000In the case of Free Tibet, that actually was a CIA project, and the Dalai Lama has worked with the CIA.
01:33:55.000And they say, well, no, these are just prisoners.
01:33:58.000And the West argues they're people being oppressed.
01:34:01.000The stories that we get are horrifying.
01:34:04.000If you were, my point is, if the ideology of China was purely Christian and it was like a Christian nationalist country and the perspective of the people was we have arrested Muslim criminals.
01:34:19.000Like, again, I'm clarifying from what the West is saying about what they're doing versus what they say they're doing.
01:34:24.000My point is, if in the United States we had a Christian nationalist government and many extremist Muslims were arrested and put into prisons, people on the right would be like, yes, absolutely.
01:35:45.000No, I'm saying the Free Tibet movement, all the way back in the 1970s, LA Times first reported on this, that it was supported by CIA money.
01:35:52.000And then it was just recently declassified that the CIA was involved in the Free Tibet Project.
01:36:00.000And this is the U.S. soft power where USAID, largely what they were doing, was providing aid to NGOs, but it was for the goal of destabilizing.
01:36:12.000I think we have common interests with these groups.
01:36:14.000I don't think that inherently makes them CIA, though.
01:36:17.000And I feel like some people on the left would just use that blanket term.
01:36:21.000Well, anybody who is who has similar end goals as us.
01:36:25.000So again, we might want to see parts of Tibet break off because we don't believe that's a legitimate part.
01:36:29.000Or we would like to see Taiwan remain independent.
01:36:32.000Some people would imply that they are CIA just because they have similar interests.
01:36:36.000No, in the case of the Dalai Lama, this is declassified, but also this was a relationship going all the way back to the Nazis, right?
01:36:42.000He was actually, when it looked like the Nazis might win, there were those famous meetings with the Dalai Lama and the SS because they were trying to curry favor with him, establish a relationship because the Nazis also were concerned with that geostrategic location.
01:36:57.000Like you're talking about earlier with Cuba, Cuba relationship to the United States, Taiwan with China.
01:37:15.000I'm just saying that I think that's the geopolitics.
01:37:19.000Before we go to the chat, let me ask you: would you be in favor of a U.S. government that its basis for its laws was Christianity?
01:37:29.000You would have to have the majority of the population accepting something like Orthodox Christianity before anything like that would even be sensible.
01:37:38.000The last time there was something like this was like 1800s Russia, where you had a symphony, a relationship of the Byzantine two-headed eagle is the model.
01:38:00.000I'm just curious on if the end result was you had government that would go in, they'd say prayer, they would have discussions with religious leaders on does it make sense to implement a certain law?
01:38:34.000My argument is the function of Christianity is superior to everything else we have seen throughout history, and that the United States would benefit from actually having Christianity in its government as it did historically until we started to pull it out.
01:38:50.000And, You know, so one thing that I've talked about quite a bit, you know, I grew up Catholic and ultimately just left the church and then became like an angsty teenage atheist, but then kind of realized I was wrong.
01:39:05.000And I remember reading about Blackstone's formulation, which is it is better that 10 guilty persons escape than one innocent person suffer.
01:39:14.000And I thought, man, what a beautiful thing, right?
01:39:17.000And then Benjamin Franklin said it's actually better that 100 guilty persons escape than one innocent person suffer.
01:39:23.000I mean, like, if you've got a rapist running around and you're like, we're going to have 10 rapists running around just so that one, don't aren't there sacrifices.
01:39:32.000So I decided to read into it and like, why did Blackstone say this?
01:39:51.000And I believe it is logically and mathematically correct.
01:39:56.000And this is my argument about my worldview on private rights: that we can actually mathematically map out why Christianity is correct.
01:40:06.000And that is the founding fathers argued: if you take the religion out of it, you can go very simple and say, this is what God wills of us.
01:40:15.000It is better that, you know, if there's but one righteous man, we do not condemn, right?
01:40:19.000However, how does that translate to a functioning society?
01:40:22.000The founding fathers said, if you tell a man, regardless of his innocence, we will punish you just in case, you have created an incentive for a man to be derelict.
01:40:33.000You will tell the person, why bother being righteous and moral if we're going to harm you no matter what you do.
01:40:40.000In fact, the incentive then is if I'm going to be imprisoned unjustly, I might as well try and get what I can while I'm at it.
01:40:46.000So they ultimately logically came together and said, then in fact, it quite does make sense that we should tell the people, even if a guilty person escapes, we are going to make sure the innocent, the burden will be on the government.
01:41:01.000And I believe that is the righteous thing and the just thing.
01:41:04.000It also completely adheres to the Bible and the perspective on, you know, it was Sodom and Gomorrah, but it also makes complete sense when we watch how humans are.
01:41:16.000And when you take a look at what the left is doing, releasing criminals intentionally, it is, I believe, anarcho-tyranny.
01:41:25.000They want to create violence and instability.
01:41:26.000But it also, I believe, is an attempt.
01:41:29.000I believe largely what the left is doing is trying to destroy Christianity.
01:41:32.000It is what these communists have argued for quite a bit.
01:41:35.000And I think a lot of what they do, and maybe not as directly, but it's a way to say, see, your ethos doesn't work.
01:41:42.000We let these guilty people escape and crime has been miserable and everyone's upset.
01:41:57.000You get oppression, authoritarianism, command economies that ultimately collapse and everyone's pissed off.
01:42:02.000In the French Revolution, they let the prisoners out to engage and to be the front, the front, you know, the tip of the spear for the revolution.
01:42:11.000The revolutionaries were like antifa, right?
01:42:56.000Anyway, anyway, we're going to have that uncensored portion of the show over at rumble.com slash Timcast IRL, where we have a special treat for you that certainly can only be played on the uncensored show, and you will laugh.
01:43:06.000But you got to go to rumble.com slash Timcast IRL at 10 p.m. to watch it.
01:43:09.000In the meantime, we're going to see what y'all have to say.
01:43:13.000All right, Jacob Hawley says, from what I understand until the investigation is over, is that they were potentially drug traffickers trying to smuggle drugs in Caribbean.
01:43:21.000That is still unverified, but that's from the Cuban embassy.
01:44:30.000There's a bunch of, so left and right is the challenge with a lot of these ideologies, how you define them in different contexts.
01:44:39.000For a while in the 2000s, many people defined left as lacking authority and right as more authority.
01:44:47.000But that doesn't necessarily, because that goes more to like the French Revolution vision of it.
01:44:52.000But it didn't make sense because then people started to define capitalistic economics as right-wing and socialist as left-wing, which created two distinct and then a third left-right acts emerged of culture where the right is traditionalist and the left is progressive.
01:45:06.000So you actually have a bunch of different left-right paradigms that that's why we have to try and figure out what that means.
01:45:12.000The funny thing is, actually, there's one leftist paradigm and then three different right-wing branches.
01:45:18.000Because like, you know, I always point this out.
01:45:20.000Dave Smith and Nick Fuentes have wildly different political ideologies, but they are both called right-wing by the media.
01:45:28.000And I'm like, that is not a good descriptor of what these views are.
01:45:33.000Whereas the left, you pretty much can nail it.
01:45:37.000Someone's a liberal, they're going to believe the same thing as everybody else.
01:45:40.000And we actually, the data bores this out.
01:45:42.000There was a graph that we showed on the show a while ago where they had a social access and an economic access.
01:45:50.000So it was the further down you were, the more socialist economics.
01:45:56.000And the further left you were, the more, oh, no, no, no, I'm sorry.
01:45:58.000The further left you are was socialist economies and the further down was progressive culturalism.
01:46:04.000And you found the Trump voter base was spread out evenly across the top, meaning you had the dirtbag left.
01:46:09.000They're more socialist, but they voted for Trump.
01:46:12.000On the bottom, everything was in a tight pocket of leftist ideology for culture and economics.
01:46:17.000So when you call the leftist a leftist, you can pretty much agree they're going to be for trans and the kids.
01:47:29.000It's effectively an aquifer in Virginia.
01:47:32.000It's basically the same water that we get, we drink out here.
01:47:35.000And it's pure, filtered, delicious with all the good stuff in it.
01:47:39.000And we made it as a gag because I was beefing with Liquid Death over the plastic contents of their cans, for which Liquid Death has plastic in their cans.
01:49:45.000Shador says, Tim, you got to have a tiki history on culture war to explain the proper differences of socialism, communism, capitalism, fascism.
01:49:53.000Sure, but I would also say everybody argues even academics.
01:49:58.000I think I've read like four different academic papers on the definition of fascism, for which one of the most common is the lucrative merger of corporation and state.
01:50:06.000Then you'll get others that argue, well, you know, technically, you'll get some people saying the Nazis were socialist, as self-described.
01:50:12.000And then you'll get other academics being like, well, actually.
01:50:15.000And then you've got people saying the USSR, no, they weren't real communism.
01:50:18.000And the CCP, they call themselves communists, are communists in every way, but occasionally have some free market aspects.
01:50:24.000So no, they're not really communist either.
01:50:26.000It is possible to have socialism that's not Marxist socialism.
01:50:29.000I mean, socialism kind of started in the French Revolution.
01:50:32.000Like Marx, Marxism and Marxist-Leninism is like what people think of as socialism, but it is possible to have socialism.
01:50:46.000I think socialism is ultimately trying to lead to communism.
01:50:49.000So, I mean, that's well, that's the communists said the ultimate goal of socialism is communism.
01:50:54.000But I would say that if you're trying to make a distinction between the two, a simple way is that socialism defines the economic system and communism is the political infrastructure of it.
01:54:25.000And now his great-grandson is a representative from New York City who impeached the president the first time around, was the lead lawyer impeaching Dan Goldman, Representative Dan Goldman.
01:54:53.000That what we think of when the left and the right both say, like the right says the left is trampling the Constitution, the left says the right's trampling the Constitution.
01:55:01.000What they're literally describing is a Constitution is shout out to Wait Stotz.
01:55:07.000What constitutes the people and the right view their constituency, what constitutes the Constitutional Republicanists, and the left views what constitutes the multicultural Democrats, both are completely meaningless to what the Founding Fathers intended.
01:55:23.000The Founding Fathers, blasphemy was illegal.
01:55:26.000You could not go out and besmirch the good name of Jesus Christ.
01:55:29.000Today, the argument from both sides is that it's allowed.
01:57:00.000If in 1706, 1790, if you walked into the heart of New York and started holding up a sign saying Jesus, well, that's a little vague, but literally saying like, like insults, insulting Jesus, they would arrest you under obscenity and blasphemy law.
01:57:17.000Now, where does that change throughout the process?
01:57:20.000In the 1830s, I think it was, maybe like 1829, there was the final case where a guy, he was like a, what was he?
01:57:27.000He was like a universal Unitarian or some function, some weird religion, and he was challenging Christianity.
01:58:36.000What's fascinating to me is the Christian response to people blaspheming Jesus, which is to say almost none at all of the Christians who I'm around who see Jesus being blasphemed, they don't seem to care much or are just very tolerant of people doing it as opposed to it.
01:58:54.000Let me tell you this over blaspheming.
01:58:56.000Did you know that this is a Christian nation founded on the requirement to profess a faith in a Christian God?
01:59:03.000And in order to run for office, you had to swear a faith in a Christian God.
01:59:08.000And it started to change around the time of the revolution.
01:59:12.000Maryland was one of the only states, it was like, I think Maryland, Connecticut, where you didn't have to say Protestant, but many of the states required you to be a Protestant.
01:59:20.000Maryland, because of a high density of Catholics, said just Christian.
01:59:23.000And because of Thomas Jefferson, largely, Virginia said, just say God.
01:59:27.000But now today, you'll hear these liberals say, we have a separation of church and state.
01:59:32.000And it's like, no, actually, all of the colonial charters required it.
01:59:35.000That comes from Roger Williams, the Baptist, who was a strong proponent of the separation of church and religion and state.
01:59:42.000So it goes from, like you said, there even used to be church taxes in some of the colonies.
01:59:48.000How do you feel about the separation of church and state?
01:59:50.000Me, honestly, I don't like it because I like my ideologies and everything like that.
01:59:57.000The problem with it is that the mistake made by the, it's not necessarily even the founding fathers, because separation of church and state is not the constitution.
02:00:06.000It was largely born of like the First Amendment, the right to practice religion, your own religion.
02:00:13.000The problem is the assumption of 5 million people who are 99% Christian was our moral worldview is already absolute.
02:00:23.000We don't need to make the government start telling Christians and Protestants because we don't need to deal with that.
02:00:29.000What ends up happening then is the moral worldview erodes and starts incorporating degeneracy and very bad things that are detrimental to our country.
02:00:37.000And we have this enshrined now that you cannot have your ideology in your law, which to be honest, look, there's a lot of bad laws that we got rid of, but there's a lot of really bad things we've adopted.
02:00:49.000And I do believe that even like if you go back to the 50s, largely we were still like a 90-some-odd percent Christian nation.
02:00:57.000And the moral worldview was still culturally enforced.
02:01:01.000Since we've had an expansion of multiculturalism, immigration, and what we would describe as heritage Americans, I guess, like long-standing American families have stopped reproducing.
02:01:11.000You have an erosion of your moral worldview.
02:01:14.000So now you are getting rampant degeneracy across the country.
02:01:18.000I have no problem with Christianity in government so long as constitutional rights are protected.
02:01:26.000That would be, you can't give a blowjob in the streets of San Francisco.
02:02:02.000I think there's a lot of connotation comes along with Christian nation that I am not suggesting mandated churches or that people will be forced to buy Bibles.
02:02:11.000I'm saying that Blackstone's formulation, the foundation of like the fourth, fifth, and sixth amendments is understood and taught to our children.
02:02:51.000They wrote that, again, the point was: a society that tells an innocent man, regardless of your virtue, you will be punished, incentivizes a man to do whatever they can, regardless of honor, because they will be punished.
02:03:02.000But a society that says even the guilty will get their chance tells a man of virtue, do your best, and we will protect you.
02:03:10.000It creates an incentive for people to try and be good, trustworthy, and honorable, which, of course, a high trust society is a successful society.
02:03:17.000So the Founding Fathers are literally basically like, Hey, you know, I know it says it, but when you think about it, it's true.
02:03:24.000And so that's the basis by which I think if we were more informed of the roots of our ideology and laws and why they work, we would be much better off today.
02:03:32.000And you could still have, like, we don't torture people, like, we do away with these things.
02:03:38.000We have civil rights for people of different race.
02:03:39.000You can have interracial marriage and all of that stuff.
02:03:41.000These things are not restricted under a Christian worldview.
02:03:47.000Do you think we torture people in Guantanamo Bay?
02:03:50.000Well, I mean, waterboarding is torture.
02:08:20.000You believe I'm sold you so long for salute if you can't keep the pace without the text that the tweet says, We've crossed over into something, but I don't know what it is.
02:10:33.000and kids to me scream but the royals can do what they want for the rest of you are we blunt come just not lucky as long as we're not getting here he's got 72 stops teddy bears seriously just he's got lawyers and sir the man up to him surely will end up like virginia
02:11:10.000he's actually a good tool daughter's a sight to be known, And the devil is why he's decided to stop by.
02:11:23.000He'll take her off your hand straight to the island.
02:11:25.000They'll be her to amend and bury her in the sand, never to be seen or heard again.
02:11:30.000Commentary on, it's all the parts of the band, All right, We get it?
02:11:36.000Uh, he actually does have 72 teddy bears.
02:11:40.000Question for you now, with this whole entire thing, children, Epstein Island and everything do you think it's an actual fetish?
02:11:48.000Do you think it's trying to hold things over other powerful people's head?
02:11:52.000Do you think it's a adrenochrome that gives them special powers, like well, do you think they just really like being weird with children?
02:12:00.000The leading conspiracy theory right now is that uh, Les Wexner hired Epstein to be his criminal fixer and uh, I don't know if that's true, but uh, is Lex Wesler Mossad?
02:12:16.000Yeah, there was a lot of things about Epstein being Mossad too.
02:12:19.000No uh, maybe that's because Ghilain Maxwell's dad was like uh Very, he wasn't overtly known to be like an agent, but he was treated like one when he died.
02:12:29.000And so uh I I, I think it's fair to say uh, one of the theories, the first theories, was that he was, he would get dirt on powerful people to leverage against them for intelligence agencies.
02:12:41.000However, right now many people are arguing, powerful people want to do illegal things and Jeffrey Epster was their guy.
02:12:47.000So they, they basically bring this high school teacher Epstein, and say, you're gonna live like a king of an island and when we want something done, you you're the guy who gets it done and then all the bad stuff falls on you.
02:12:58.000If it happens and Epstein's like wow, I get to be worth 500 million dollars, all I gotta do is evil shit.
02:14:02.000So this is part of the theory that Epstein's existence was Bill Gates would go to him and say, I need antibiotics that no one can know about and a way to secretly give it to my wife.
02:14:12.000And Epstein would be like, I'll do it.
02:14:51.000I mean, I'm sure there's a lot of stipulations in that marriage, one.
02:14:54.000But two, like, this guy always says, like, he's got so much money.
02:14:57.000Why wouldn't he put a lot of money towards reshifting the laws towards men and marriages and getting just completely like you can't fix that?
02:15:24.000So like the issue with the way divorce used to work was you can't just leave and a court could order you to therapy and like because it was like, hey, you can't, you know.
02:16:05.000And then she's like, so I get his stuff.
02:16:07.000Yo, you got to be a dumb guy, unfortunately, to marry a broad that you don't know and trust, that provides nothing.
02:16:17.000Because then this is why, especially right now.
02:16:19.000So I don't blame all the red pill guys who are like, don't get married.
02:16:22.000People who you know and trust do you the same way?
02:16:26.000It happens quite often when you feel you know and trust somebody and you get done.
02:16:32.000I think the issue is marriage used to be for all of humanity, you married someone you knew since you were a child.
02:16:41.000So we have some cultures with arranged marriage where you're like 10 and you meet and they're like, you're going to get married to my family already.
02:16:48.000And so it used to be you lived in a town of 300 people, you went to school, and then as you got older, like even in the 50s, you were dating the girl from your school, your high school square, you got married.
02:17:00.000Today, the problem is, yeah, some dude from New York met this wacky from California who loves surfing, and he's a finance bro, but she's really hot and he has fun with her and he's like, this is amazing.
02:17:28.000So I look at it like this: you got, throughout human history, here's a guy, here's a chick, and here's their lives, and they're going like this.
02:17:35.000And then they get married and they stay exactly where they are.
02:17:38.000Today, you got a guy over here going like this, and then they go like that, and they get married.
02:18:24.000I got lucky in that I'm doing what humans have always done: marrying someone who grew up the same way as you with similar goals and desires.
02:18:33.000Like we don't even argue about stuff because we're like the exact same way.
02:18:42.000And so the arguments we have are usually just like, well, you know, if we do that, I mean, I'm not sure that will work.
02:18:48.000Well, I think we have to because we'll do this.
02:18:50.000And I go, well, okay, well, I see what you're saying.
02:18:53.000I think you have to work for that, but in a sense of luck, because it's so easy to fall for not that.
02:18:59.000It's so easy to get into a situation where you guys aren't perfect for each other, but like you said, for this 30 minutes, whoa, this is really fun.
02:19:07.000And you don't realize that 40 years is not the same as this 30 minutes.
02:19:12.000I think it is beautiful and in a way lucky, but you do have to work for that.
02:19:16.000And it is a people, bro, because it's such a beautiful thing to have.
02:19:21.000People also need to have these conversations before they get married.
02:19:23.000Like, hey, my ultimate vision is I'm going to go A, B, C, D, and then what do you want to do?
02:22:17.000If someone said, we're like, if I don't know, so when we got there, I was like, I think I'd rather just snowboard because I want to just strap on and just go.
02:22:26.000And I was like, yeah, but the problem is if I'm snowboarding, it's going to be a task.
02:25:09.000So my modest proposal for tonight to deal with the growing communism problem is to give them exactly what they want, but a twisted way.
02:25:16.000Bring back McCarthyism on steroids, proceed to put them into labor camps consistently, and if they do not work, have escalating punishment that ultimately results in capital punishment.
02:25:26.000Now, there will likely be many who do not wish to work, and therefore we will likely need an area such as a wall to deal with that.
02:25:37.000Hey, I say, like, let's take a big, like 10,000-acre swath and call it Commutown and tell all the communists, this is yours to be a communist nation, special economic zone.
02:28:46.000First, he ruled with an iron fist, and that killed a lot of people, and he had to persecute a lot of people to secure his place as the leader and the dictator.
02:28:54.000But then unfortunately, communism leads to a lot of famine and ends up killing a ton of people.
02:29:00.000And then he also famously used this as a weapon of war against the Ukrainians.
02:29:05.000Really, Stalin did in the Holden War by not giving them food, right?
