On this week's episode of The Brave New World, we talk about the crazy things China is doing to make their citizens more compliant, and how we should be worried about it. We also talk about how dangerous it is to wear masks in public, and why we should all wear them.
00:01:14.000The riots in Europe, in the Netherlands particularly, are so bad that one mayor is saying it's like civil war, or I'm sorry, that we're on the verge of civil war over the COVID-restricted lockdowns.
00:01:26.000In the US, we've seen widespread riots and anger.
00:01:28.000Well, I would say the riots have been primarily fueled by other things, but definitely many people have said that being pent up over the lockdowns and the restrictions has made people kind of angry and go nuts, and there's been a lot of riots because of it.
00:02:59.000When I heard this, I started laughing because I'm like, it kind of just sounds like they're pushing our butt to see how much we're willing to accept before we finally lose our minds.
00:03:06.000But apparently in China, everybody's okay with it.
00:03:13.000They have a social credit score, you sneeze the wrong way, your credit's gonna go down, and you can't even go see a movie anymore, and your internet's gonna be shut down.
00:03:20.000You've gotta get tested in order to go in buildings, you get a phone with a barcode, and so if you wanna get your test, and the only thing they're doing is shoving stuff up people's butts, guess what?
00:03:33.000Look, but China also welded people into their homes and stuff like that, so... I don't know what America would be willing to accept with this, but, uh... Dr. Fauci says, hey!
00:04:54.000Okay, anyway, there's a bunch of other stories because we got in, uh, in, you know, like I mentioned in the Netherlands, there's mass riots.
00:05:13.000The Oregon Republican Party says the Capitol was a false flag, which is a bold statement the media is already screaming about.
00:05:19.000So we'll get to all this stuff, and then, um, maybe we'll get to this, there's like a lost, um, a lost, what is it, Native American or whatever?
00:05:27.000Indigenous fortress to fight the Russians found?
00:05:30.000And I think it'd be fun to talk about some weird and wild stuff, so we'll get into that.
00:05:32.000Ladies and gentlemen, that was a long intro, and I gotta introduce, we have a great guest, we have Alex Holliday of Control Pew.
00:05:42.000Yeah, so I'm part of a community that design and 3D print firearms, and we release them to the internet for free, and people can make them at home.
00:05:52.000You're teaching, you're giving people designs to make guns at home?
00:06:50.000Alex, what's the best 3D printer or printers to get to make guns?
00:06:55.000If you're on a tight budget, if you only have, you know, you can get in for 200 bucks, if that's all you've got to spend, get an Ender 3 Pro.
00:07:02.000You can get them off Amazon, takes like three days to your door, and you're basically set.
00:07:08.000If you've got a little more money to spend, go for an Ender 5 Pro.
00:07:12.000It's a little more robust of a machine, gets you a little further, but they're still, they're basically the same machine.
00:07:17.000It's just like ABS, like plastic printing?
00:07:20.000But you still need metal parts, don't you?
00:07:22.000Yeah, and all of the designs we have now require some metal parts like a bolt or a barrel, but we've also figured out how to easily manufacture these with common off-the-shelf parts.
00:08:15.000It's members only posts, and we made sure to put the members at TimCast email to make sure everybody gets through without error.
00:08:21.000We did a segment recently about the Portland Mayor pepper spraying some dude, and we kind of just ragged on him for quite a bit and all that stuff.
00:08:27.000But once I got another video of Alex Jones waking up Luke, oh, I'm definitely going to milk that for all it's worth, Luke.
00:08:36.000It's literally just watching some silliness.
00:08:38.000I'm still taking suggestions on who I should surprise Tim Pool with when he's sleeping, so feel free to message me that on my Twitter account, LukeWeirdChange.
00:08:47.000Become a member, help support the show, because we're going to be expanding the members-only content.
00:08:51.000Of course, this show is always going to be free, and if you really want to make sure that, in the event we get banned, we still exist in some form, this is the way to do it.
00:08:57.000That being said, my friends, let's talk about anal swabs.
00:09:00.000Newsweek.com reports COVID anal swabs for Beijing residents more accurate, says Chinese expert.
00:09:08.000I'll tell you right away, I'm not going to bury the lead.
00:09:10.000They've been doing this for a long time now.
00:09:12.000So, you know, Luke is talking about some prophecy.
00:09:17.000They say more than a million Beijing residents undergoing coronavirus testing amid a fresh outbreak have been administered anal swabs, which are considered more accurate and raise the chances of detecting COVID-19, said a Chinese disease specialist.
00:10:09.000All right, they say the key districts of Daxing and Dongcheng began a mass testing drive on Friday after a nine-year-old boy tested positive for the more virulent strain of the virus first discovered in London and the southeast of England last month.
00:10:21.000Health authorities in the Chinese capital said they were aiming to screen more than 2 million people in 48 hours, among them around 1.6 million inhabitants of Daxing.
00:10:30.000were to be given antibody tests as well as throat, nasal, and rectal nucleic acid swabs.
00:10:37.000Anal swabs have been in use since last year, including in the major port city of Shanghai, but the method is so far reserved for individuals in potential COVID-19 hotspots, according to an infectious disease expert quoted by China state broadcaster CCTV on Saturday.
00:10:52.000Quote, Since the start of the coronavirus outbreak, we've tested for the virus using mainly throat swabs.
00:10:57.000Its characteristics are convenience and speed, so it's suitable for large-scale testing.
00:11:03.000Said Beijing Yuan Hospital's Li Tongzheng, nasal swabs are more accurate than throat swabs, but nasal swabs can be uncomfortable.
00:11:11.000Well, there's a solution to that discomfort.
00:11:14.000In some asymptomatic cases or in individuals with mild symptoms, they tend to recover from the illness very quickly.
00:11:20.000It's possible that there will be no trace of the virus in their throat after three to five days.
00:11:24.000What we've found is that in some infected patients, the coronavirus survives for a longer period of time in their digestive tract or excrement than in their respiratory tract.
00:11:32.000Couldn't you just take a dump in a cup and give them the cup and leave?
00:12:36.000But also, most importantly, the article goes on and says, on Friday, a resident of Tangshan in Hubei province, about 120 miles east of Beijing, told CCTV that she was given double rectal swabs, probes, they're really probes because they go inside to two inches inside of you, as part of a city-wide testing in her area.
00:12:55.000She said each swab took just under 10 seconds.
00:12:59.000So, You were talking about people being pent up, and they're definitely going to have to loosen up with all these new government testings.
00:13:07.000You were questioning, is it mandatory?
00:13:13.000If you make fun of the government, Government officials will literally take you away at night, sit you down in a chair where you're handcuffed with your feet and hands, and will interrogate you until you apologize for making fun of the government.
00:13:59.000And he's bolted down to a chair as they're like threatening him and demanding he apologize and say he'll never do it again.
00:14:06.000There's another video where a woman turns her phone camera on and puts it down, you hear a knock on the door, and then cops come in and just randomly arrest her.
00:14:13.000And they're like, shut up, you're under arrest.
00:14:15.000I think she was one of the people warning the world about COVID.
00:14:18.000Because a lot of nurses, a lot of doctors, a lot of lawyers, a lot of journalists went to jail and are still missing because they were telling people of the world, hey, there's this mystery virus going around last year.
00:14:30.000And then the Chinese government was hiding that fact, of course, making sure the world was unprepared.
00:14:35.000when they knew. There's some reports and intelligence from November that the Chinese
00:14:39.000government knew that there was this new strain of coronavirus that was going around that they
00:14:44.000knew was going to be a major issue. They instructed Chinese nationals and other countries to start
00:14:49.000collecting PPE, buying it up and sending it back to China so that they would have it,
00:14:54.000other countries wouldn't. That's what they do.
00:14:59.000I mean, I can't blame them for fighting for their own personal interest or their own national interests, but I can blame them for the freaky authoritarianism and all that stuff.
00:15:06.000Now listen, here in the United States, we don't have these anal probe things going on.
00:15:12.000Considering Xi Jinping was the talk of the town over at Davos, I wouldn't be surprised if they come back and they're like, you're not a bigot, are you?
00:15:19.000Stop being so prude and accept your probe.
00:15:21.000Okay, well, we don't have that going on for now, but we do have Fauci saying two masks.
00:15:33.000Perhaps he's talking about wearing a mask on your butt to stop the butt-covid from coming out, but he's not.
00:15:37.000He's talking about wearing two masks on your face.
00:15:40.000The New York Post says two face masks are better than one, Dr. Fauci said Monday.
00:15:45.000The infectious disease specialist advised that double masking is a logical way to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
00:15:51.000If you have a physical covering with one layer, you put another layer on, it just makes common sense that it likely would be more effective, Fauci said on the Today Show.
00:16:00.000The White House advisor explained that face coverings prevent respiratory droplets and the virus from spreading to other people, as well as protecting the wearer.
00:16:07.000Oh, now they're saying it protects you.
00:16:11.000He's saying it would likely be better, so he's not saying it would be?
00:17:07.000There you go, probably because Fauci said it, I guess, and then Trump didn't wear a mask, and then there you go.
00:17:12.000Look, I see this story about Fauci saying we should wear two masks, and I know it's not the same as, you know, shoving stuff up, you know, people's butts, but it really does feel like they're just pushing our buttons to see, like, how long until someone just finally gives up and just, like, snaps, goes crazy.
00:17:28.000Well, people in Holland, it looks like a lot of them are snapping already, especially with a lot of the civil unrest that's happening there.
00:17:35.000There's been a lot of protests all over the world that have not been talked about.
00:17:39.000They're not getting a lot of media coverage.
00:17:41.000It looks like, you know, the larger algorithms aren't really even interested in them.
00:17:44.000But I think, you know, I agree somewhat with your point there, but we have to understand a lot of these so-called medical professionals, a lot of these experts, they were wrong from the very beginning.
00:17:55.000Whether it was their projections, whether it was their recommendations, they were flat out wrong and they haven't admitted it.
00:18:02.000it. They haven't had any accountability. They haven't faced any repercussions for actions that
00:18:07.000did lead to some severe ramifications that they should be held responsible for. And unless that
00:18:12.000happens, it's hard to believe them from here. In the beginning, everyone believed them.
00:18:16.000That's my issue is you've got a lot of people who don't trust the medical professionals and
00:18:20.000like the experts on COVID and stuff. Yet when you talk about how Fauci was wrong early on,
00:18:25.000they say, well, science is always wrong.
00:19:28.000You would think they would talk about vitamin D. You would think they would talk about- Well, he did, he did, he did.
00:19:32.000Fauci's told people to get vitamin D for sure.
00:19:34.000Okay, that's a big surprise because a lot of government officials, a lot of foreign policy hasn't even addressed that basic factor of health, of sleep, of stress, of diet, of exercise, of going out there, getting proper sun, getting proper vitamin D.
00:19:49.000And if he did mention it, there's also a lot of scientists screaming about this from the very beginning, since there are results showing that vitamin deficient people have a horrible time dealing with this.
00:20:00.000A lot of people are extremely vitamin deficient, vitamin D deficient, especially with all the lockdowns that have taken their ability of even going outside.
00:20:53.000In the Chinese manufacturing plants that produce these goods.
00:20:56.000The same masks that protect you from the virus that came out of China?
00:21:00.000Yeah, so I'm starting to think that they told us not to wear masks at the beginning so that China could buy all our masks up and we wouldn't be like getting in their way.
00:21:07.000And I'm curious why he doesn't, why he's telling people to wear double masks and why he's not telling them to wear like the higher technology masks that might actually protect you from the virus.
00:21:24.000Fauci says everyone should wrap themselves in plastic to protect themselves from the virus.
00:21:27.000It's like a woman and she's all mashed up and tangled in plastic wrap and can't move.
00:21:31.000I'm glad you said it because I was gonna make that joke.
00:21:36.000I mean my joke was that, and I think I made this joke a year ago, in like 2030 everyone will be wearing gray jumpsuits with no pockets and they'll have shaved heads and they'll carry nothing on their person.
00:21:47.000They'll own nothing and they'll just walk to and from like public transport and work and And then I realized that although that would probably be fairly extreme, it's not extreme enough for where we're headed in terms of critical race theory.
00:21:58.000People would have to be, you would have this white box over your body that you held, so no one would know how tall you were.
00:22:06.000And you'd have a voice modulator where you would type inside your box and then it would, you'd do a computer voice.
00:22:28.000Yeah, where the beautiful people have to like, what do they do?
00:22:31.000They wear terrible makeup or they like wear bags over the heads and the really good people at dancing get weighted down or they get their feet cut off.
00:22:38.000The smart people have things in their ears that scream random sounds to interrupt their thinking so they can't be smart.
00:22:43.000Well, they're already starting to cut back on the gifted programs in many public schools all over the United States, which I find kind of crazy to do so.
00:22:53.000They're doing it because of equality, but you're preventing people from getting a better education than they normally would.
00:23:01.000and you're holding people back because of other people not doing that well.
00:23:05.000I mean it just doesn't make any logical sense to me.
00:23:07.000You're saying you don't believe in equality?
00:23:21.000When you look at nature, I mean, nothing's equal in nature, and it's all about survival of the fittest.
00:23:26.000And I think we as humanity will progress once we understand that and open ourselves up to that kind of understanding, which will help us move forward in life more accurately and correctly.
00:23:36.000This is something that Michael Malice brought up.
00:23:38.000He said, how you define the new right is this.
00:24:11.000But the left views it from a very, like, identitarian view.
00:24:14.000Like, when you ask them, are some people better than others, they take it to a racial or gender or, like, you know, inherent identity place.
00:24:22.000Whereas my initial reaction was, like, that's a very broad question that could mean a bunch of different things.
00:24:27.000Some people are better at printing guns than I am, and some people know a lot more, are better at me than answering gun trivia than I am.
00:26:01.000We're both better than each other, so it's redundant.
00:26:03.000This is exactly the point I was just making.
00:26:06.000When you ask someone if some people are better than others, I'm not making a judgment on a person's value.
00:26:11.000I'm analyzing a very simple statement about whether some people are better than others.
00:26:16.000But that doesn't make sense, because if you're better than me at something, and I'm better than you at something, then we're both better than each other.
00:26:20.000It cancels... So people are better than each other.
00:26:22.000So you couldn't say that I'm better than you, you couldn't say that you're better than me, so the answer would be no.
00:26:26.000But you can't equate, like, skateboarding with shooting guns or different things.
00:26:30.000You could say some people are better at certain things than other people.
00:26:51.000Whereas we view it very simply, you are going into great detail about what quantifies certain things, and that's new right versus new left.
00:27:40.000But how about we derail entirely back to the discussion about... Should we talk about the riots in Holland and the civil war coming to the Netherlands?
00:27:46.000Yeah, and tie it in with guns, because Alex is here and I want to know about... Well, they don't have guns.
00:27:54.000Well, I don't know if that would be a good thing or not.
00:27:57.000I mean, perhaps it's a good thing for individuals to have the ability to defend themselves.
00:28:03.000I think in the context that I'm trying to say is when people are out in the streets fighting and, you know, fighting, you know, there's fear of a civil war, maybe we don't want people escalating that point.
00:28:10.000The problem is one side already has guns and they're using them.
00:28:14.000So, I'm not saying they're using live rounds on the people in the Netherlands, but here's the story.
00:28:18.000The Daily Mail says lockdown fury sparks a third night of violence in Holland, with hundreds of protesters looting shops, torching cars, and battling police.
00:28:27.000The Netherlands hit by a third night of rioting on Monday, with clashes in Rotterdam, Amsterdam, and The Hague.
00:28:32.000Police said 184 people have been arrested by Tuesday morning and promised more arrests would be made.
00:28:40.000Hundreds of rioters had looted shops, set fires and clashed with police who responded with water cannons.
00:28:46.000It comes after the Netherlands introduced a coronavirus curfew from 9pm until 4.30am to bring cases down.
00:28:53.000Now, I believe it was the mayor of Eindhoven who said that we are on the verge of civil war.
00:28:59.000And I think it's actually... Is it up here?
00:29:22.000They say, despite the unrest, many countries in Europe are considering tightening their lockdowns.
00:29:27.000This is an impossible conversation, an impossible discussion, to be completely honest.
00:29:34.000People often ask, like, where's the line in government intrusion until you say enough and then demand a regis of grievances to the point where there's clashes, right?
00:29:43.000Because I tell you, in China, they're shoving swabs up people's butts.
00:29:47.000At a certain point, the line has been breached, right?
00:29:50.000But for now, it is a fact that in this country, the line can never be crossed.
00:30:13.000Well, in the Netherlands, this is the third night of widespread rioting and violence that even some local politicians are saying will continue for days or weeks.
00:30:25.000They burned down many testing facilities.
00:30:29.000They're fighting police officers in the street and this is predominantly over the lockdown restrictions and specifically this curfew because a lot of people are saying, what, does the coronavirus not infect you under a certain time?
00:30:44.000And there have even been studies showing that curfews are absolutely pointless and they do nothing except hinder Daily life and allow the police to have an excuse to take away your liberties or your money away from you Alex you had something to say?
00:31:00.000It's complicated, because we can go deep in the philosophical discussion on when you lose your national sovereignty, and you start having the civil war sort of clashes and armed resistance, and what happens when one side of that, when the side of that argument, where the people who don't think that their government has the authority to rule over them anymore, You know, what happens when that group doesn't have any quality of arms with their, for lack of a better term, their masters?
00:31:38.000So, I mean, there's a real philosophical argument to get into, and you see a lot of it through Portland, through the Antifa riots, a little bit of it popped up in D.C.
00:31:54.000I don't know, it's... You know what I think?
00:31:58.000The armament of the people changes the threshold for when those people will react violently.
00:32:04.000And so, you look at somewhere like China, and the state is a massive security state with censorship, control of all weapons, the likelihood of an uprising is slim to none.
00:32:14.000Because the odds are so much against the people.
00:32:18.000There's concentration camps in China right now.
00:32:20.000In the US, it's a bit more precarious because you have to think about the amount of pressure on an individual to make them act and the capability they have to actually accomplish something.
00:32:31.000In a place like China or in Europe, the ability to accomplish something when you have an armed state versus an unarmed populace is slim unless you have critical mass.
00:32:41.000So the line at which it becomes a civil war, like this Dutch mayor is saying, is further away than it is in the United States.
00:32:48.000In the United States, you can get one crazy guy with powerful weapons who feels he can actually do something.
00:33:06.000Even with the curtailing of our freedoms, we're still pretty much living in luxury relative to other places.
00:33:13.000But also, against that kind of sentiment that you said, In Europe, all you need is a truck.
00:33:19.000And there have been incidences where there have been deadly events that have been far more impactful than shootings in the United States because of some crazy person saying, I'm just going to run a whole bunch of people over with a truck.
00:33:31.000So, you know, that's another sentiment here that we need to understand.
00:33:34.000But what I mean is, if you, like if in the U.S.
00:33:37.000they started doing mandatory anal swabbing, I imagine things would break down really fast.
00:33:42.000A lot of social justice warriors would probably like that.
00:33:45.000Yeah, so maybe, sure, if you want to make the argument that maybe in cities things would just go along, like we've seen what's going on with New York.
00:35:01.000It's, it's, you know, people and the, the, the kicker is people have been making guns in their homes for the last hundred years before the advent of 3d printing.
00:39:24.000Generally speaking, it just wastes a lot of ammo.
00:39:28.000In most military-type engagement, you're going to be shooting at an individual target.
00:39:34.000There is an argument for it where you're talking about suppressing fire coming from machine guns, but when you start getting into fully-auto out of a 30-round magazine, it's kind of...
00:41:03.000And I think a later iteration they built it into a full rifle platform where you're hunting and you see the deer and you want to hit it at a specific point to get a good clean kill on it.
00:41:16.000And so it would wait until you would pull the trigger and then you would adjust your position so you would line up properly and once it lined up properly it would fire.
00:41:28.000It's been years since I've seen this, and I don't know if I'm remembering it exactly, so don't quote me on this.
00:41:34.000Well, you want to make sure you don't wound a deer because they're going to run away, and they're going to be injured, and they're going to be suffering.
00:41:39.000There's a specific place on the deer, I think in the lung-heart area, correct me if I'm wrong, that you have to, if you shoot once, it's It's a pretty good sign that it's going to be a clean kill and the animal's not going to suffer.
00:41:56.000I read a lot about how certain places have really high crime.
00:41:59.000I hear West Virginia has a lot of high crime and a lot of these places outside of cities have high crime.
00:42:05.000And I'm like, why is it then that people in West Virginia, there's like not many police around and then why, like, you know, and people just get along just fine or get by just fine.
00:43:45.000Like, Chicago is an interesting gun conversation.
00:43:48.000Chicago's got a bunch of people with illegal guns and they go around shooting each other all the time.
00:43:53.000And I think that's what the left uses as an argument for gun control.
00:43:57.000Criminals who take the guns and then are causing problems and murdering people all over the place.
00:44:02.000I guess for me, I've always kind of wondered...
00:44:05.000If the guns are already illegal and they're committing murders with them, why would passing a law stop them from committing a murder which is already illegal?
00:44:12.000Well, we see a lot of liberals talk about gun homicides, and they keep forgetting that most of them are from illegal guns in jurisdictions that already banned them.
00:44:23.000Other gun deaths are because of suicide, and then I think the third highest level of gun death rates are from police officers shooting people.
00:44:33.000So, if you're for gun control, you're not really for gun control.
00:44:37.000You're for having individuals with guns take away other people's guns at the threat of using guns.
00:44:43.000That's essentially what you're for, and you should just be honest about it, that you want people robbed of their ability to defend themselves, while, of course, the politicians want literal machine guns protecting them all the time.
00:44:55.000I like the idea of having an armed society.
00:44:57.000It's kind of cool because if a group does rise up to overthrow the government with guns, which in Holland they're probably afraid of, you have the rest of the population also armed to protect the country from the overthrow.
00:45:31.000It's better to know that there's a possible- like, the idea that a civil war could happen means that the dictatorship is less likely to happen.
00:45:40.000And what usually reduces harm is individuals being able to defend themselves.
00:45:45.000Because people then don't take offensive, aggressive actions against them.
00:45:50.000They say an armed society is a polite society and I think we're seeing that in places like Florida and places like Texas where people have the ability to protect themselves unlike other jurisdictions like Chicago, New York City, and a lot of the other big cities where you can't and gang violence and Uh, has been skyrocketing because all the gang members know people are defenseless.
00:46:12.000People can't defend themselves if they do have a firearm.
00:46:15.000But now in many places, I think in Chicago, you can have a gun.
00:46:36.000In Times Square, the biggest arrests that were made were individuals that came in from out of New York who had pocket knives.
00:46:42.000The biggest arrests that happened... I forgot the exact statistic here, but I heard a very wild one that the majority of arrests in New York happened because of tourists having guns on their... Oh, right.
00:46:55.000I imagine it's like a knife of a certain length.
00:46:57.000Yeah, it's like longer than three and a half inches or something.
00:47:24.000I would surely hope that there are many, many, many times that number, and I believe that there are, but there's no way to count.
00:47:34.000Most people are making them in the privacy of their own home, and if they're doing it right, they're not telling anybody.
00:47:39.000So, we were talking about this last week, I think, about ghost guns, and some people were saying they were illegal, and then a bunch of people were like, no, no, no, they're totally legal.
00:47:46.000So, ghost guns are legal, is that correct?
00:47:48.000Yeah, so, a minute ago we were talking about how you can manufacture... Any gun you manufacture at home, for your own personal use, is what politicians are calling a ghost gun.
00:49:03.000And you can buy it, it ships straight to your door, and you finish it on basic tools.
00:49:08.000There's a couple kits out there, one you do with like a DeWalt router or something, some kind of just common hardware tool, or you can do it with a drill press.
00:49:17.000But then you still need to buy that last piece.
00:49:20.000Wasn't there something going on where people were saying the ATF was raiding people for having these kits?
00:49:23.000Yeah, so there was one specific kit done by Polymer80 called the Bi-Build Shoot Kit, and they marketed it as everything you need in a box to build a gun in a couple hours.
00:49:33.000And you would click it once, and you add to the cart, and they would ship it to your door, and then you'd spend an hour putting it together.
00:49:38.000And the ATF said that this box of parts that wasn't a firearm was close enough to the definition of a firearm, and marketed it in such a way that it could be construed as a firearm, that it was actually a firearm.
00:49:52.000Which doesn't make any sense from a legal perspective.
00:49:55.000But this is the ETF we're talking about.
00:49:59.000So in terms of 3D printed guns, you're printing what like the frame, the grip, the stock or what?
00:50:03.000Yeah, basically any external part that has complex geometry, so things that are going to be difficult to make by hand.
00:50:12.000And then, looking specifically at the FGC-9, the barrel and the bolt are made at home, out of common material.
00:50:22.000And again, the barrel, we're finishing it with basically 3D printable inserts, and we're using electrochemical machining to get the internal dimensions of the barrel to the right size
00:51:40.000So you're pumping water out of a bucket, salt water out of a bucket, through the inside of the barrel.
00:51:46.000And you've got an electrode in the barrel that's stripping material at the atomic level off of the inside of the barrel to bore it to the right size for your bullet and then cut rifling and then cut in your chamber.
00:53:30.000Um, and then once all that's done, you have to take that part, you have to send it to another company to do the final, like, actually make it a solid part, because it's a bunch of particles that are stuck together.
00:53:56.000Um, like there are, there are filaments that have metal embedded in them, but they have the same problem where it's just a bunch of medical metal particles that are just stuck together.
00:54:07.000And then you have to send it to another company to finish it.
00:54:11.000You say it sounds easy, but I'm like looking at these websites and it's just, there's hurdles to, you know, the average person can't just do this.
00:54:17.000Yeah, everything is a learning curve, but we've tried to make it really, really simple.
00:54:23.000So in order to get started, I'm going to plug my site, go to theguide.controlpew.com.
00:54:29.000That'll get you your first 10 steps into 3D printing.
00:54:34.000You're just learning how to use the printer, how to use the software, how to get it dialed in so it actually functions and things fit together properly.
00:55:02.000I know Maryland has some funny business going on.
00:55:05.000I know California has funny business going on.
00:55:08.000I know New York has funny business going on.
00:55:10.000Well, California and Maryland banned flamethrowers.
00:55:13.000They're the two states, and I know this because I own a flamethrower, they banned flamethrowers, which is just utterly ridiculous and so un-American.
00:55:21.000I'm sorry, I thought this was America.
00:55:24.000People are getting in trouble with the Elon Musk flamethrowers.
00:55:27.000Because people are buying them and it's called not a flamethrower by the boring company and then people are getting the feds turn up their door being like that's a flamethrower!
00:55:34.000The funny business is that's actually a weed burner.
00:56:38.000He's working on a 3D printed California compliant Glock and AR-15.
00:56:44.000So, there are some specifics to work within those sets of laws, but...
00:56:51.000I'm not as well-read on the individual states to be able to answer that with any level of competence.
00:56:56.000Well, you know, even traveling with firearms, you learn about so many of the jurisdictions, reciprocities, and you literally need to hire a lawyer to explain it to you because of the different made-up laws that each politician interprets in their own unique ways, which is, again, not universal and very confusing and leads a lot of people in trouble.
00:57:19.000I'm so, I'm so disappointed because I tried for like, I sat for like three, four hours.
00:57:24.000I dug through the law to come out here with my trunk of fun.
00:57:28.000And just show you guys what we're working with.
00:57:30.000And I couldn't do it because I just couldn't figure out how to navigate the whole thing properly.
00:57:34.000And I was like, okay, I can't, I can't even begin.
00:57:37.000Have you, in your time, 3d printing and experimenting, have you ever figured out new shapes to build weapons or guns with that make them more effective?
00:57:49.000So we've done a lot of modifications on the AR-15 to make it a lot more robust.
00:57:55.000There's a version now that has an additional bracket on the side of it to hold the buffer tower, to add some extra support to the buffer tower, so that it doesn't break off when you're shooting.
00:58:07.000Which was a problem that we had with the early 2015-2016 versions of the AR-15 lore.
00:58:13.000So, I mean, we've come along, we've evolved in a lot of different firearms.
00:58:18.000So, like, when you're talking about specific shapes, not really, but it all varies based on the forces applied to each firearm, because they all act a little bit differently.
00:58:28.000Yeah, I'm thinking, like, to print, like, little hooks on the side where you could stick extra cartridges and then to hold... Oh, okay.
00:58:35.000Yeah, no, that stuff, there's a lot of that, actually.
00:58:38.000Thingiverse doesn't allow you to do gun stuff, but there's a lot of gun stuff on Thingiverse.
00:59:05.000So, funny story, 2012, the RepRap project, which started the whole 3D printer business and the commercial home use, They were designed to have a bunch of 3D printed parts, and then have a bunch of common off-the-shelf parts, where you just printed the stuff you need, or you had someone else print it for you, and then you assembled your printer, and you could print another set and give them to someone else, and they could build their printer.
00:59:29.000So that was the origin of this whole thing, which is another reason why the whole 3D printing thing itself can never really be stopped, because the origin of everything is open source.
00:59:39.000It's all out there, it's all public domain.
00:59:40.000They could put some kind of tax on 3D printers, where you have to get a stamp, and then only one office in the country issues the stamps, and they're swamped, and people can only get one, like, every six months, like they do with many things to get around the law, you know what I mean?
00:59:55.000Right, but prove that I bought the printer to, you know, you know what I mean?
00:59:59.000Well, I mean, like, you know what we've seen- You gotta catch him first.
01:00:02.000What we've seen with a lot of regulations the government does when they can't ban something is they put regulatory hurdles in front of it that are so severe, people eventually just stop doing it.
01:00:10.000I have a feeling that in the future they'll be trying to ban the information, like the actual CAD files of the data.
01:00:18.000So when electricity becomes free, like once we tap fusion and we're in ignition, it's gonna be the information that's the currency of the world.
01:00:26.000I was watching Star Trek earlier, and I'm just thinking about this now, like, what if, like, could you imagine someone walking up to a replicator and being like, computer!
01:00:47.000So, I mean, when we're looking at the advancements of technology, it goes both ways.
01:00:51.000It provides people a lot of opportunity, but it also has an opportunity to take away a lot of the freedoms and liberties that we take advantage of.
01:00:59.000So it's going to be interesting because when you look at 3D printers and trying to band them, I mean, essentially, when you boil it down, it's somewhat of a simple technology of just making plastic hot and then moving around a machine.
01:01:11.000So it uses that heat and that, you know, melted plastic to shape something in a different form.
01:01:17.000So, I mean, it's going to be very hard to ban 3D printers, but it's something that, as you said, could happen and could be regulated in a way where it's impossible to get.
01:01:26.000For the FGC-9, could you just buy, like, standard parts for other guns?
01:02:43.000No injury to the user, but they just break.
01:02:47.000So we were talking about how the Liberator, I remember when it was first being developed, it would get off like one or a few rounds and then just break itself.
01:04:20.000With the amount of guns that are being printed, there's just not that big of an issue.
01:04:24.000Looking at this last year alone, just with the reported background checks, there's something like three... Ten million new shooters?
01:04:33.000I feel like we're butting up against four million background checks.
01:04:36.000Now, a lot of those background checks have more than one gun, and not all of those background checks actually complete or end in a sale, but Four million is a lot.
01:04:46.000I think it's way more than that, actually.
01:04:48.000I feel like it would be, too, and I'm ballparking numbers, so... Well, so, I think the guy from Federal Ammo put out a video about the ammo shortage and said that we're looking at seven million new shooters.
01:05:04.000So a lot of yeah well actually no it's not fair because some people are buying some people are already gun owners and are buying guns so maybe you're right maybe it is four million so the the data that comes up when i just oh no no wait i'm sorry it would have to be more than seven yeah regardless of your first time shooter or not yeah the data that comes up that when i just searched for this is that nearly five million new gun owners have joined the 100 million plus gun owners already in the united states in 2020 according to recent estimates for the from the national shooting sports foundation So, some of the data also shows that 40% of all firearm sales are going through first-time buyers.
01:05:39.000So, of course, there's a lot of people.
01:05:42.000I started doing, you know, trainings with my Special Forces Green Beret friends in New Hampshire teaching people who are first-time gun owners how to properly use, how to properly clean, use their firearms this summer because there was a demand for it and there was a shortage of professionals willing to train people how to even safely use and operate a firearm.
01:06:12.000They say, President Joe Biden preached that the country requires unity to overcome its challenges in his inaugural address last week, as it remains divided.
01:06:45.000A user from the social media forum Gab posted a screenshot of an article from the Gateway Pundit, an online political news blog that says, we report the truth and leave the Russia collusion fairytale to the conspiracy media.
01:06:56.000With the headline, Missouri gun shop announces they don't have guns or ammos for Biden supporters.
01:07:00.000They have the actual post from Facebook here.
01:07:13.000The company that lists itself as a gun store on the platform has received more than 3,000 interactions and more than 1,000 shares on the post with mixed reactions from users in the comment thread.
01:07:23.000Reached by phone, Trigger Firearms and Reloading LLC hung up on Newsweek's request for comment about the Facebook post, declining to respond.
01:08:16.000Where are the people going to banks asking for multi-million dollar investment to start primer companies or powder companies because of the shortage of all this ammo?
01:08:25.000Like, now's the opportunity to get on the ground floor.
01:09:12.000You as an individual have the ability and the technology, you can do it.
01:09:15.000You know, I was thinking about why these liberals, these Biden supporters, are so concerned.
01:09:22.000Well, first of all, let me say, they're willing to support a man who says he's going to outright ban all gun sales and accessory sales online.
01:09:33.000Yeah, he wrote a lot of vague, generalized language about not allowing people to buy a firearm within a certain amount of period, close to another purchase of a firearm.
01:09:43.000He talked about banning online sales of anything gun related.
01:09:47.000How could you vote for him and then actually go and expect to buy a gun?
01:10:02.000And it's interesting that this is, oh, you got a stink bug in there.
01:10:05.000It's interesting that this is happening in Missouri, because in Missouri, this is also where the McCloskey case happened.
01:10:11.000I'm still trying to look up the latest information about what's happening with them, but they're the couple that walked out with firearms with very poor trigger discipline and very point, very poor aim discipline.
01:10:22.000Uh, when a BLM, uh, you know, pretty much protest broke down the fence of their door and, uh, you know, they say threatened them.
01:10:30.000So I'm still trying to find out exactly what's going on.
01:10:33.000Like had their guns pointed down at the ground?
01:10:35.000Well, when you see, I think it was Patricia McCloskey, she literally had her finger on the trigger and she was moving the gun around in a place where it was rightly behind her husband's head.
01:10:51.000I feel like everything else was appropriate given the information that I have.
01:10:55.000Like it was a violent crowd and they're confronting you on your property.
01:11:01.000So I feel like that's okay to point a gun at them with your finger on the trigger and be like, I'm actually going to shoot you if you keep coming at me.
01:11:08.000They were on his property in a castle doctrine state.
01:11:09.000Right, so it's like, in some states, you can shoot someone before they even get on your property.
01:11:16.000In order to prevent someone entering your property, some states allow you to shoot somebody.
01:11:20.000Yeah, and so there's like, I don't know the full details, but some states, like New Jersey, I think New Jersey has duty to retreat, meaning you're in your home in the middle of the night, and you're allowed to own a gun, and then someone breaks in.
01:11:43.000And then in other states, they have castle doctrine with no duty to retreat, but a duty to enter your home.
01:11:49.000So like, let's say you live in, you know, Maryland, and you're on your front lawn or something, and you see someone coming towards you, you have to go into your house first.
01:11:58.000Then if they try breaking in, you can defend your home.
01:12:02.000In places I think like West Virginia, I'm pretty sure West Virginia is like, you see them on your property, you can shoot them.
01:12:06.000In New York City, you defend yourself, you hurt the perp, you go to jail for the crime of hurting the perp.
01:12:11.000So I know many instances and cases where people had violence brought upon them, they defended themselves, and because they left a mark on the attacker, the aggressor, they went to jail.
01:12:24.000There's even stories in the United States where people were violently attacked, fought back, and with extreme cases of people trying to kill another person, that person defended themselves and they went to jail.
01:12:39.000It all depends on the jurisdictions and it all depends on who the attorney general is.
01:12:43.000And this is why we've seen individuals like George Soros literally bankroll attorney generals all throughout the country that, of course, will play favorable into the agenda, into the narratives that they want to push.
01:13:24.000It's remarkable because we have so many people now fleeing these big cities and going to these red areas where...
01:13:31.000I can understand why the store is basically saying no Biden supporters can buy guns, because you've got Democrats from big cities moving to red areas, bringing those policies with them, and then they want to buy guns and then get them banned later.
01:14:10.000Yeah, the guy who moved to Texas and then back, I mean, one of the top reasons he left is because the weather was oppressive.
01:14:18.000that uh that there was no public land that there was no snowy mountains that that people in austin were rude but uh you know you went to austin austin's yeah the liberal yeah yeah yeah they have a liberal mayor there who goes to uh vacation in the caribbean islands while telling everyone to stay home and not travel because of covid uh just like most democratic politicians who don't follow the law but i mean this guy sparked an interesting discussion but i do believe media organizations like the daily mail went too far they kind of doxxed him they released public information about his house where he lived his family photos and i'm like this is too far this is i mean people are enjoying calling him the new karen and dunking on him but but for me it was his old house
01:15:22.000That's fine, and we shouldn't be criticizing him.
01:15:24.000He does spark an interesting conversation, which I think we all should have, and that should be it.
01:15:30.000You know what I think ultimately the biggest problem is?
01:15:33.000It's that conservatives who live in conservative areas understand what city life is like to a certain degree, and don't care for what people do in cities.
01:15:40.000But people who live in cities have no idea what rural life is like, and want everyone to live under the rules of a city.
01:15:46.000If you live in Manhattan, even, I think Luke accidentally came out in support of gun regulation when I said, what happens if you live in New York City and you've got a 556 and someone breaks into your cubicle apartment?
01:16:00.000And you said, maybe don't allow certain calibers.
01:16:03.000Well, maybe some individuals, we had this argument.
01:16:06.000I'm like, Tim, you should get a shotgun.
01:16:09.000My walls in my RV are kind of thin there.
01:16:12.000Well, so the point is I'll ask you Alex in New York for instance, I understand the right to bear arms Especially to defend yourself if you live in one of these cubicle loft apartments where you got 30 people surrounding your your you know 10 by 10 cube it smells like sour milk and someone breaks into your apartment a certain you know a certain bullets gonna go through walls and potentially hit other people and that could create a huge risk and Yeah, so all bullets are going to go through walls.
01:16:37.000Like there is no bullet small enough that it's going to stop and drywall.
01:16:42.000Yeah, it would go it would go through but I mean like but just just assume that it's going to because this is this is
01:16:48.000sort of the danger you get into with gun ownership of You're responsible for wherever that bullet goes period
01:16:55.000So if it goes through who you shot into the 12 year old and two apartments down
01:17:00.000Well that you know, you may have shot the guy Yes
01:17:03.000But the consequence of that, you know was you've you've created an unacceptable consequence of that
01:17:09.000You killed a 12 year you shot a 12 year old. So I mean this is something that a gun owner needs to be conscious of
01:17:16.000This is something that you get through exposure to firearms in general, is you develop this knowledge over time.
01:17:23.000Man, could you imagine living in New York City and there being a gun shop in Times Square where they're selling like a .308 and you can just buy it?
01:17:29.000Well, to also clarify, you know, I'm not for the regulations.
01:17:33.000But there is a particular gun culture that needs to be talked about, because when we went out to the range, we met a lot of random individuals in the middle of the woods, away from all the roads, and they were all courteous, they all looked you in your eye, they all talked to you, they all treated you with respect.
01:17:49.000There was no attitude, there was no, you know, crap thrown your way.
01:17:53.000There is a particular gun culture that takes safety very seriously, that makes sure that you don't point your muzzle at people, regardless of whether the gun is loaded or not loaded.
01:18:03.000Yes, but Luke, it's not about gun culture, it's about regular people.
01:18:07.000Remember you made that video about being on the subway with all those people everywhere?
01:18:19.000But how often, like we see videos of attacks, they happen.
01:18:22.000But how often does the average person walk through New York, walking past all these people, and no one just randomly starts beating you or stabbing you?
01:18:28.000Same way with driving, you never really veer the car over and ram into someone, you know?
01:18:32.000You know, when I was 16, and like, well actually I got my license when I was 18, but when I was like first starting to learn how to drive, I was shocked when I realized that cars don't frequently bump into each other.
01:19:04.000When we went to the range and there were some other dudes there setting up targets and they had a bunch of guns too, I have no fear or no concern about them shooting me or anybody else because I don't regularly get attacked by random people.
01:19:15.000Especially when you're at a range where people are going there for a purpose.
01:19:17.000People who live in cities are paranoid and terrified that someone's gonna... You know what it is?
01:19:22.000Maybe because there's too many nasty people who work in these offices or who are on Twitter, and they know that they're bad people, and they're just worried about someone coming to their office and, you know, going postal or something.
01:19:31.000Yeah, desperation can breed violence, obviously, and in cities sometimes you have poverty and hunger, but trust is like such an integral part of being human.
01:19:39.000You know, we got to where we are as a socially constructed species by trusting each other.
01:19:44.000And also, I think people, when they decide to purchase a firearm, they understand that they're taking a very serious responsibility, that it comes with a lot of training, a lot of educating, and a huge, huge, you know, patience towards trying to understand the huge ramifications, and I think majority of people do that.
01:20:03.000I thought the first thing everybody did when they bought guns was to go out in the parking lot like Yosemite Sam and just start firing wildly into the air.
01:21:20.000Yeah, so it's weird that, you know, so during the March for Our Lives protest, I went down there in a good faith attempt at talking to people.
01:21:27.000I can't tell you how many people were holding up signs saying, ban assault rifles.
01:21:31.000And so I would talk to them and be like, I just want to ask you about your sign.
01:21:33.000And they'd be like, yeah, what about it?
01:21:34.000And I'd be like, well, assault rifles are illegal and they've always been.
01:21:38.000And I'm wondering if you were aware or what your goal is with the sign.
01:21:42.000And they would go, oh, and like one lady like folded it up and she's like, I didn't know.
01:22:03.000So the assault rifle is like the populist term that politicians like to use to scare people Assault weapon assault rifle is a is a is a rifle that has selective fire so you can do single burst or full-auto in the colloquial that is but the Legal terminology this is the machine gun because they're talking about legislation and passing laws What the Democrats tend to do, and some Republicans, is they say, assault weapon, and they can't define what an assault weapon is.
01:22:32.000So like, we were talking about this, I don't know if we were talking about it on the air, but like, the M1A is illegal in Maryland, but the SCAR, what does Luke have, the SCAR-22?
01:22:41.000I shouldn't be talking about that publicly, I guess.
01:22:42.000But anyway, oh well, too late, cat's out of the bag.
01:22:45.000The M1A is illegal in Maryland because it's a weapon of war, I guess, but it's like, The M1A is, is it fair to say it's like relatively archaic?
01:22:55.000And so it's not, it's not the same as like a modern AR-15 that could shoot the same caliber, which is probably more efficient and easier to use.
01:23:04.000So the point is, the assault weapon definition is like nonsensical almost.
01:23:10.000And I know gun owners know this, and they've known this longer than I did, because you see the memes where it's like, this is illegal, this is legal, they're literally the same gun.
01:23:18.000Um, assault rifle means means selective fire, which does that always mean that it has a full auto selection of single burst or full auto?
01:23:27.000So machine talking, going back to the legal term, the machine gun is any weapon that fires more than one bullet with a single pull of the trigger.
01:24:48.000Let's say you had a gun with like, let's say it was a 5.56 with like 15 barrels.
01:24:53.000What if when you pull the trigger one time, it goes ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da Or would that be considered volley?
01:25:00.000I think that's considered volley fire.
01:25:06.000I mean, I mean, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're chasing into the territory where, like, I'm not a legal expert and I don't actually know.
01:25:13.000Um, also, like, I, I feel like it all depends on the mechanism.
01:25:19.000Because if you pull the trigger once and it's like a physical, well, even then.
01:25:25.000I don't know how you would initiate all of that.
01:25:28.000It's, we get into a technical argument and you would need to send it to the ATF to be evaluated.
01:25:45.000No, so binary fire is a whole other thing where you pull the trigger and it fires one round and then you let go of the trigger and it fires another round.
01:25:54.000And this is not a machine gun because the law specifies a machine gun is a single operation of the trigger.
01:26:00.000So just pulling the trigger is a single operation and letting the trigger go is another operation.
01:26:10.000Iowa you can't have binary triggers as far as I'm aware.
01:26:12.000What if you just had multiple triggers?
01:26:15.000So you could like play the guitar like and you're going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Oh yeah, like you have a trigger, but it's actually three small slivers of triggers that you pull all three triggers, and then it fires three rounds.
01:26:35.000No, you need three fingers to pull 1, 2, 3.
01:26:37.000And you can go 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3.
01:26:56.000It effectively allowed people to fire full auto.
01:26:59.000And so they're like, no, that's got to be illegal.
01:27:01.000And it's interesting because it does, right?
01:27:04.000So what, you know, it's just people are going to keep finding different ways to make different kinds of guns.
01:27:08.000Eventually there's going to be this weird shaped, you know, octagonal box with like pipes coming out the sides and you put your hands in it and then it does full auto and it's some crazy loophole to the law that allows it to function, you know, and you're playing the accordion and it's like... I think I'm familiar with the bump stock.
01:27:25.000Can you explain the bump, how it seems full auto?
01:27:31.000So, when you're holding the rifle, the stock and the rifle itself are not fixed together.
01:28:12.000So by pulling the gun forward and putting that force, it's going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Interesting. So they made those illegal, but bump fire is a
01:28:22.000technique which was a lot of people were complaining about like if you if you want to bump fire you can just do it if
01:28:36.000So that's why a lot of people... Super easy to do.
01:28:38.000But I think it's interesting because it's not going to stop there, especially with 3D printing.
01:28:43.000The FGC-9 looks kind of crazy compared to other guns you're used to seeing.
01:28:47.000It's only a matter of time before they'll keep trying to make rules and eventually they're going to try and make one all-encompassing rule and it won't work.
01:29:58.000From the business perspective, there's a lot of hurdles to overcome, like your financial processing is a problem with all the financial censorship that's going on.
01:30:23.000But what are some of the other financial restraints?
01:30:25.000Well, even like you're considered the Obama administration put forth Operation Chokepoint, which classified firearms dealers or anyone in the firearms space as a high risk business.
01:30:37.000And that added a whole bunch of additional restrictions on who they could do banking with and credit card processing with.
01:30:44.000And it really limited to none of the major credit card processors will work with you if you're a business.
01:31:55.000And then all that matters is, I can then buy mine's tokens, the correct value, send it to them, then they can immediately transfer it into U.S.
01:33:38.000Anyway, yeah, I don't I wonder if we'll come to a point where people start 3d printing like like you can buy disposable guns like disposable cameras like you walk into the shop It's like I just need the 20 shot and it comes the magazine preloaded and it can't be reloaded It just it's done when it's done and you throw in the garbage cuz it's just like plastic with a nail in it I'm most excited about 3d printing ammo and I know you talked a little bit about it or do you have any information?
01:34:01.000Oh It's still, it's still very much an alpha sort of development.
01:34:06.000Like I said, we're still, we're still working at the chemistry to get smokeless powder.
01:34:10.000We're still working out like the, the actual construction of the round and what kind of calibers you can use and what kind of pressures you can get.
01:34:17.000So there's a lot in development and, you know, if you guys are interested.
01:34:21.000Are chemists and you're interested in in getting in this space? This is somewhere
01:34:26.000I heard you can make I heard you make a make you can make both out of bat poop
01:34:29.000Say what I heard you can make bullets out of bat poop. What are you sure?
01:34:33.000No, that's cuz bat has something specific in a salt coronavirus. Yeah
01:34:37.000Something else like I was reading like how they would make black powder back in the day. Yeah, it doesn't have
01:35:07.000They transitioned because if it got wet, they wouldn't fire.
01:35:11.000That was more of a problem of like having the whole muzzle loading in general where everything was just exposed to the elements all the time.
01:35:21.000AKs can fire when they're soaked, right?
01:35:22.000Well, everything can fire when it's soaked.
01:35:24.000You can duck an M4 in a pool and still fire.
01:36:16.000I was watching that movie, News of the World, and it's really interesting because, you know, if you don't know the history of guns, but Tom Hanks' character has birdshot, but he has brass shotgun shells that he loads and he like pours the birdshot out.
01:36:28.000And then, spoiler alert, if you haven't seen the movie, you've been warned.
01:36:31.000There's a scene where he's fighting with people and all he has is a birdshot.
01:36:35.000He runs out of bullets in his revolver and then this little girl puts coins in the brass shells and then he shoots and kills a guy with coins.
01:36:43.000I think Mythbusters did an episode on that.
01:36:48.000But it, like, you know, whether or not it would work, it was interesting this idea that shotgun shells used to be brass and reloadable, basically.
01:37:07.000Yeah, because it just blows the whole thing and sprays it out anyway, so.
01:37:10.000They're working with like, um, recovering plastic, melting it back down in like an anaerobic environment with no oxygen back into like liquid oil.
01:37:19.000And then you can use that as a printing filament.
01:40:14.000People have been, because I tweeted the story, people are sending me a lot of South Park images of poor Cartman during that very famous South Park episode where he was probed by the aliens.
01:40:25.000Cargoosh says, rectum douche for victory against the silent enemy.
01:40:29.000To quote Emperor Biden, we need a full scale wartime effort.
01:40:47.000Omar says, Tim, as a Canadian, I'd love if you covered some of the stuff happening up here.
01:40:50.000Two weeks ago, an Ontario Conservative MPP was booted from the party for writing a letter to the Premier with sources with suggestions to exit lockdown.
01:41:51.000Brent Sagan says, Hey Tim, I fell behind on a bunch of your videos and to catch up, I listened to them at two times speed and hearing you all live makes you sound drunk.
01:42:00.000Uh, well you can always go back and watch these old episodes at two times speed as well.
01:42:59.000Someone did an experiment on Facebook where they would put something like just got married or something in all of their posts because the algorithm would boost those words because people interact with marriage and childbirth.
01:45:11.000The left likes to say it's not because fascism is ultra-nationalistic, and I feel like that's like a deviation.
01:45:17.000If, you know, the goal of the Nazis and the fascists was like world domination and taking everything over, how is that nationalistic when you're invading other countries?
01:45:26.000Also, it's really weird that they keep saying fascist over and over again with like an emphasis on Italy instead of Nazis with an emphasis on Hitler.
01:45:32.000Like, they call people Nazis for sure, but they really like saying fascist over and over again as if, like, Italy was the prime problem in World War II.
01:45:40.000They were one of the big problems, but Nazi Germany was it.
01:45:43.000I want to give a shout-out to the Federal Reserve, because I feel like it's the most fascist thing in our country right now.
01:45:48.000It's like a corporation with no government oversight that's controlling our government, our monetary supply, which is kind of our government.
01:48:55.000YouTube will ban you if you're a journalist.
01:48:57.000So journalists, independent journalists are just getting nuked across the board because unfiltered content that just shows things happening is a violation of YouTube's rules.
01:49:07.000Be a good slave, work for CNN, be promoted in the algorithm, be promoted in the search, and then five years later expose all the horrible crap that they did.
01:49:17.000Use multiple platforms and start your own website and host your content on your own website too.
01:49:21.000And then use things like Twitter and YouTube to promote it as long as you can.
01:49:25.000Also, Library and Odyssey, for us anyway, they've been a great platform to host content on.
01:49:30.000Like, we put all of our files up on there, all of our media goes up on there, and they're one of the few platforms that advertise us as, you know, look, the 3D-printed gun people are here.
01:50:00.000What do you mean, switches between the browsers?
01:50:02.000So, it could just function like a browser.
01:50:04.000Okay, so you build a browser, what does it do exactly?
01:50:06.000It holds four specific tabs for, you know, or whatever social networks, and then you just swipe left and right between all of them and it's just functioning like a browser.
01:50:14.000So you'll have someone's YouTube channel, you'll click their profile, and then it'll load up a browser with all of their social media, and you get all of it in one feed because it functions like a browser.
01:50:23.000If you wanted to get it in one feed, the API thing, I understand.
01:50:26.000But you could literally just swipe left and right on their different posts.
01:50:29.000To just go to their YouTube channel, their Facebook channel, their Twitter channel?
01:50:32.000Well, no, you could just do that with Brave.
01:50:35.000You just don't have to open all their channels.
01:50:36.000The idea is to create an app where you can follow people but not control banning them because you don't actually host any content.
01:51:18.000So you'd pull up your app, and then you'd, you know, you'd see the individuals, and you'd see, like, all it would say is, you know, you'd click the person, and then you'd see their Twitter.
01:51:27.000And then you'd swipe, you'd see their YouTube, you'd swipe, you'd see their Instagram.
01:52:37.000Do you think it would matter to Amazon that you're not actually hosting Because it doesn't matter to YouTube or Google whether or not you violated their terms of service, they're still going to delete your account and take down the video.
01:52:47.000Another thing to really... I saw a new report that came out that talked about how 94% of all child abuse images came from Facebook.
01:52:57.000You know, when you have that in comparison to Parler being taken down, that's a big difference there.
01:53:01.000So, to add to that point that you were making.
01:53:05.000I mean, obviously they would try to get rid of it, and they would say it's a directory listing a bunch of extremists or whatever, and I'd be like, we don't host anything.
01:54:24.000Geary Vision says, we weren't allowed to use crew-served weapons in many populated areas of Iraq and Afghan due to high numbers of civilian casualties.
01:54:31.000Pelosi wanted to unleash them on our own streets.
01:55:22.000Sprig Bandersnatch says, Tim, why did it take so long for you to gun up?
01:55:26.000You should have done it the day the weirdo showed up at your house at 3am, then came back later.
01:55:30.000Well, we lived, like, literally next door to the police station, which is why when the dude showed up, the cops were there in, like, less than a minute.
01:57:03.000So I could just order those parts and then do it?
01:57:04.000Yeah, we covered a little bit ago, there are mods for the FGC9 that let you use Glock barrels,
01:57:10.000and you can, with a little bit of skill, a little bit of practice, you can mod it yourself to use a
01:57:14.000different barrel that you happen to have lying around. So, you know, the options are there if
01:57:20.000you want to use them. The FGC9 specifically was built by a guy, well it was a derivation of another
01:57:28.000The FGC9 was done by a guy in the UK to specifically be, you know, something he would be able to build in the UK and, you know, by extension through most of the rest of the world.
01:57:40.000Yeah, it'd be fun to try and put one of those things together.
01:58:05.000We're going to have a bunch of different kinds of content.
01:58:06.000There's going to be other websites that start emerging from this.
01:58:09.000The goal with TimCast.com isn't just to be this podcast, but to actually expand and do more different sites and things like that, which you will see soon.
01:58:17.000And in the meantime, Red Dead Redemption 2 online is $5 on Steam till February.
02:00:18.000Photons can be condensed into electrons, which can be Yeah, in Star Trek, I believe it's the nacelles collect hydrogen and then use that for their replicators.
02:00:28.000And then replicators can replicate replicator parts to assemble a new replicator.
02:00:32.000You can actually make light out of the vacuum and then you can turn light into matter.
02:00:37.000I guess the general idea is that you do need the matter, and they would collect hydrogen in massive amounts, and then use that as the base.
02:00:45.000I was posting about how they're actually creating light out of the vacuum of space, and then they're turning the light into the matter.
02:00:51.000So, and then you can condense the electrons into hydrogen.
02:00:54.000Check this out Ian, you'll like this one.
02:00:56.000Bam says, have you started trying to develop homemade ammo casings?
02:00:59.000Apparently shot shells are made of HDPE or LDPE plastic.
02:01:03.000Full plastic shot shells were experimented on during the 60s and 70s by Winchester.
02:01:47.000So for those that aren't familiar, what he said was YouTube rolled out the community tab function.
02:01:51.000They wanted people to use it, so they created a general algorithm that promotes those who post in the community tab.
02:01:56.000But because no one uses it, you could now make a post, put a bunch of keywords in it, and then YouTube would send it to a ridiculous amount of people.
02:02:04.000He said that he was able, based on his calculations, to get around 25 million views.
02:02:08.000Well, first I'll say, I could be wrong about this, but my general understanding is that he got like 150,000 likes.
02:02:14.000And then said, if on average 4% of people click, you know, click the like button, that should be, you know, what we estimated between 25 or so million or whatever.
02:02:21.000He said 1 in 40 people, something like that.
02:03:33.000YouTube emailed me a long time ago saying, we're going to be prioritizing the community tab, and those that use it more will see a higher watch time, and we'll see, you know, all these benefits.
02:05:29.000Let's see, Placid Saint says, hey Tim, the ammo company Phoenix here in Michigan got cited for its employees not wearing masks, and now they're no longer selling distributing ammo to law enforcement or their departments.
02:07:25.000It's kind of funny because the song is literally about cops killing, you know, non-white people.
02:07:29.000And there's a Trump supporter with like a blue, a thin blue line flag.
02:07:32.000And they're like singing the song and dancing.
02:07:34.000And then they were, I think, Tom Morello, he said, when we wrote the song, we never imagined like this would happen, you know?
02:07:42.000Well, maybe they don't understand conservatives enough.
02:07:46.000I had many interesting conversations with Tom Morello, and he always seemed like someone who didn't like the left and the right, but I guess that's changing now.
02:09:02.000AbrasiveFPV says, I received my Type 07 FFL a few weeks ago.
02:09:06.000Currently tooling up to start selling extremely affordable 3D printed guns.
02:09:10.000CtrlPew and Ivan have been an inspiration for me.
02:09:13.000The mission is to legally arm as many people as possible for as little as possible.
02:09:17.000Interesting, a store that sells 3D printed guns.
02:09:19.000They'd be really cheap, wouldn't they?
02:09:21.000I would imagine, until you get insurance involved.
02:09:24.000It's like I was saying, like Kodak disposable cameras, you know?
02:09:28.000You don't need a camera, you just go and you buy the disposable one, it's got the film, you can't reload it, you bring it in, they break it open, get the film out, that's it.
02:09:34.000You buy the 3D printed gun, and once the magazine's in, it's got 20 rounds that can't be reloaded, like a Kodak disposable camera.
02:09:42.000I wonder if you could brace plastic bullets like with metal so like instead of printing the whole case out of metal you print it out of plastic and then you cap it with a little bit of metal so that when it the pressure when it hits pressure it doesn't shatter like if the metal could somehow somehow brace so you don't have to you just say I don't know So the Liberator is pure plastic with a nail, right?
02:11:53.000And, uh, next week, we're going on a special Top Secret mission, which we will film much of, and create a special members-only video, which may involve something that s-s-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r Did that work?
02:14:42.000It's a form of government that is loosely defined as part democratic and part dictatorship, or as a regime that mixes democracy with autocratic features.
