On today's episode, we discuss the latest smear campaign against Donald Trump, including Bob Woodward's new book, "Fear and Loathing in Washington" and why we should be mad at the president for his handling of the coronavirus crisis. We also talk about how intersectionality is ruining our ability to have a meaningful conversation about racism and white privilege.
00:01:02.000If I recall correctly, it wasn't Donald Trump who put sick COVID patients into nursing homes, resulting in thousands of elderly being killed.
00:01:10.000And recently, someone apparently was flying a plane over New York that said Cuomo killed Nana.
00:01:16.000I'll tell you what, the Democrats are absolutely going after low information voters, people who are just going to see the smears and they're going to believe it and think Donald Trump was doing this on purpose.
00:01:27.000And I'll tell you what, you want to criticize the president on COVID, I'm more than happy to hear it.
00:01:33.000I've even said in the past, I don't think he did the best possible thing anyone could have.
00:01:37.000But then again, What should he or could he have done?
00:01:59.000And hopefully, we'll have him back on soon because Will is a very intelligent lawyer, Trump supporter, who really could have helped us walk through this stuff.
00:02:07.000But within Within this story is something even more important, in my opinion.
00:02:13.000Donald Trump referring to white privilege as drinking the Kool-Aid.
00:02:38.000We need to complain about this weird intersectional lunacy.
00:02:43.000So we'll definitely, we'll read through a lot of what they're saying about Trump and the smear piece, because this is like the big story of the day.
00:02:49.000But before we do, first, make sure you smash that like button, subscribe, hit the notification bell, and I'd like to remind everybody that just about a week or so ago, a far-left Antifa Black Lives Matter guy with a big ol' fist tattoo on his neck stalked some Trump supporters and then put a bullet in the chest, two bullets, killing a Trump supporter.
00:03:11.000So the reason I'm bringing this up is because they're trying to make us ignore what's happening with the riots.
00:03:19.000And we're going to be talking a lot about this crazy intersectionality stuff because, you know, Trump brings up, you're drinking the Kool-Aid.
00:03:25.000I'm absolutely impressed to hear this.
00:03:27.000That in a candid interview from like quite some time ago, Donald Trump was like, white privilege, you're drinking the Kool-Aid.
00:03:34.000Even though I actually kind of agree with some of the ideas around the social justice stuff, I think it's much better that you nip it in the bud and you push back and you say no to it than accept what these lunatics are doing.
00:03:48.000Because the next story is University of Michigan, Dearborn.
00:04:00.000Now, to be fair, it's not whites-only.
00:04:02.000It's non-POC, but basically means white-only.
00:04:06.000And this is the logical conclusion of this fringe ideology, and if we don't push back on it, we are literally going to go back in time to segregation.
00:05:51.000You know, whatever the virus, whatever the situation, if people start freaking out and buying all the toilet paper, there's going to be issues.
00:06:01.000So the question when they basically when they told people not to wear masks, they didn't want to run on the masks.
00:06:07.000That's kind of where I start to wonder, OK, I know you don't want to instill panic, but how many lies is it OK to tell to circumvent panic?
00:06:16.000I think one of the big reasons why they were saying, don't buy masks, I need a mask, is because it was not necessarily just about a run on the masks, it was about creating a panic.
00:06:26.000Convincing people you needed a mask would have them be like, for what?
00:06:30.000And then they would panic in other ways.
00:06:32.000People don't realize how... I don't know if you remember all the memes that came out Hmm.
00:06:37.000where people were like, oh, no, the economy.
00:06:39.000And there was like the one where the earth was blowing up.
00:06:41.000I think Elon Musk, Elon Musk posted it.
00:07:16.000And the general idea is that when people are saying, like, the economy, oh no, you're talking about quite literally the organizational structure that guarantees food travels from the farm to the table.
00:07:27.000And when that breaks down, and it did, what happened?
00:07:30.000Supply chain disruption, shortages, people lose their jobs.
00:07:33.000A lot of it had to do with the lockdown, for sure.
00:07:35.000But we were seeing, like, dairy farms just dumping all the milk.
00:07:37.000We saw farms just shoveling everything into the dirt.
00:08:21.000I'm actually, I lean very, very much towards transparency.
00:08:24.000I think in the past a lot of people would say that I was like a transparency absolutist, but that's just not true.
00:08:29.000But I'm very, very much for public transparency in the sense, if it's happening in the public, the public has a right to know.
00:08:36.000There are private things, especially when it pertains—and so this does include a lot of government functions, but I do draw the line at, if we just published everything that we did, we wouldn't exist as a country.
00:08:48.000We would undermine ourselves, it's almost like.
00:08:50.000Well, our foreign adversaries would take all the information, use it, create datasets and, you know, machine learning prediction models, and they would— Oh, totally.
00:08:59.000mind literally, like yeah, they would be able to track and predict and just disrupt literally
00:09:02.000everything we did, we'd be under complete control.
00:09:05.000And the monarchy never would have been overthrown.
00:09:07.000George Washington was totally into secrecy.
00:10:07.000They like, they already had three months supply of toilet paper and they were sitting there shining their gun being like, you know, heh heh heh, y'all are late to the party.
00:10:16.000Let me read a little bit of this just to get some more context into what they're saying.
00:10:21.000They say President Trump's head popped up during a top-secret intelligence briefing in the Oval Office on January 28th, when the discussion turned to the coronavirus outbreak in China.
00:10:29.000Quote, This will be the biggest national security threat you face in your presidency, National Security Advisor Robert C. O'Brien told Trump, according to a new book by Washington Post associate editor Bob Woodward.
00:10:41.000This is going to be the roughest thing you face."
00:10:43.000Matthew Pottinger, the deputy national security advisor, agreed.
00:10:47.000He told the president that after reaching contacts in China, it was evident that the world faced a health emergency on
00:10:53.000par with the flu pandemic of 1918, which killed an estimated 50 million people worldwide.
00:10:59.000Ten days later, Trump called Woodward and revealed that he thought the situation was
00:11:03.000far more dire than what he had been saying publicly.
00:11:07.000So Trump is candidly speaking to journalists?
00:12:03.000I get that you got to go worst case scenario.
00:12:05.000Some people's jobs are to, you know, extrapolate worst case scenario and plan for the worst case scenario, but that will cause crazy panic.
00:12:12.000And they wanted him to do it because that's a conclusion that's being drawn here.
00:12:32.000At that time, Trump was telling the nation that the virus was no worse than a seasonal flu, predicting it would soon disappear and insisting that the U.S.
00:12:39.000government had it totally under control.
00:12:41.000It would be several weeks before he would publicly acknowledge the virus was no ordinary flu and that it could be transmitted through the air.
00:12:49.000Trump admitted to Woodward on March 19th, this is where he said, I don't want to create a panic.
00:12:53.000Aside from exploring Trump's handling of the pandemic, Woodward's new book Rage covers race relations, diplomacy with North Korea, and a range of other issues that have arisen during the past two years.
00:13:04.000The book also includes brutal assessments of Trump's conduct from former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, former Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats, and others.
00:13:12.000The book is based in part on the 18 on-the-record interviews Woodward conducted with the President between December and July.
00:13:19.000Woodward writes that other quotes in the book were acquired through deep background conversations with people in which information is divulged in exchanges recounted without the people being named.
00:13:30.000I'm not going to read through all of this because we have the gist of things.
00:14:30.000A lot of people who really support Trump will push back on that.
00:14:33.000But I gotta tell you, man, I've been in Uber rides, I've talked to regular people, and I hear the same thing often.
00:14:40.000They're like, I really like what he's doing for the country, but I wish he wouldn't tweet so much, or I wish he would kind of chill out, things like that.
00:16:14.000There's a really funny comment I heard where someone said something like, Conservatives hated John McCain more than they were concerned about Trump's statements on military service.
00:16:41.000The TPP, doing it with a smile, that can be much more insidious.
00:16:45.000But here's what, basically what The Intercept brought up was, Trump, I love this interview, he just announced we're doing this big weapons deal with Saudi Arabia, and that was like, he just said it, you know?
00:17:07.000I think it's really hard to break down, but I think Donald Trump lies about some of the stupidest things ever that he should just be up front about, but then he's really open and honest about a bunch of other things that he's not supposed to be.
00:19:04.000For the people that are listening, the context is that, yeah, everyone's saying Heaven's Gate, is that Donald Trump said to Bob Woodward, what is this?
00:19:11.000This is an amazing 90s site, and I wish you guys could see my screen.
00:20:16.000President Trump flat out rejected the notion he has benefited from white privilege during an interview with Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward, and then responded with contempt according to audio clips reported by the Post Wednesday.
00:20:33.000Woodward conducted 18 on-record interviews, we know this, during one interview on June 19th as protests broke out across the country over George Floyd.
00:20:41.000Woodward asked Trump whether they both were isolated and caged from understanding the anger and pain of black Americans as two white men of the same generation with similarly privileged upbringings.
00:20:52.000No, Trump said, before responding in a mocking tone, you really drank the Kool-Aid, didn't you?
00:21:04.000Trump went on to tout economic statistics for Black Americans pre-pandemic, including the low Black unemployment rate, before repeating a commonly used claim that he's done more for the Black community than any president since Abraham Lincoln.
00:21:15.000During a separate interview on race on June 22nd, Trump somewhat shifted his tone, acknowledging there was systemic or institutional racism everywhere, but that there was probably less in the US than most places.
00:21:45.000OK, this white privilege stuff is, you know, no way you're drinking the Kool-Aid.
00:21:49.000We should talk about majority privilege, because I think really, the misnomer is that they're making it a racial issue when it comes down to the majority of the country you're in.
00:21:57.000When you're in a group of people that look like you, and unfortunately it seems to come down to the way things look.
00:22:03.000There's a lot here to break down, but first, we are blessed with the actual recording of what happened, and hopefully you'll be able to hear this properly.
00:22:39.000Do you have any sense that that privilege has isolated and put you in a cave to a certain extent as it put me and I think lots of white privileged people in a cave and that we have to work our way out of it to understand the anger and the pain particularly black people feel in this country.
00:23:11.000No, you really drank the Kool-Aid, didn't you?
00:23:35.000If you're in China, you are going to be able to navigate the country much more easily, knowing the language, being easily identifiable as Chinese.
00:23:55.000It's really just about the dominant group.
00:23:58.000And so what's happened is this Kool-Aid drinking thing that's happening, and I'm glad to see Trump is pushing back on it because these people are insane.
00:24:06.000In the U.S., it's fair to say this country for a long time, it's an overwhelming white majority and still is to this day.
00:24:13.000So there is something to what they're pointing out, but it is extremely racist the way they're going about it.
00:24:21.000Sure, if you have, like, what are they called, like an anglicized name, then you're more likely to get callbacks and stuff like that.
00:24:28.000This is true, and there have been actors who have changed their name and made them more, like, anglicized.
00:24:33.000I think, Kal Penn, do you know the actor?
00:24:35.000Uh, yeah, that's Penn from Penn and John, right?
00:24:37.000No, no, no, Kal Penn is the guy from Helden Kumar.
00:25:03.000The problem I have with this is that the conclusion they come to when they talk about white privilege would be like the homeless guy, you know, sitting in his own filth with no teeth is privileged and has power and is an oppressor over like a wealthy, I don't know, like Latino dude who's like working at a law firm.
00:25:21.000So it's like there's two things going on at once.
00:25:23.000There's majority privilege at work and then there's this Coming out of slavery thing 150 years ago where people were being dumped, like the African-American great-grandfathers and stuff came, had no money, no education, so they were at a disadvantage.
00:25:46.000Actually, let me preface this with the context of what Trump is saying right here and why I really, really like it.
00:25:50.000I can't believe that I have to actually look to a Republican president for accurately giving us the space to deal with this problem in a legitimate way, especially when a lot of conservatives wouldn't even agree with me on many of these issues.
00:26:06.000You can't have these conversations with the left.
00:26:08.000They've determined already that you're white, you're an oppressor, and it's all this ridiculous, culty, racist nonsense.
00:26:14.000So here's the things that I've identified, and I think this is fair and makes a lot of sense.
00:26:21.000This used to be what was systemic racism, but they've changed the definition, so I don't even know what people are talking about anymore.
00:26:26.000The general idea being that it wasn't just about ending slavery and then having a bunch of people with inherited wealth and a bunch of people with nothing.
00:26:35.000It was that after that you had the Democrats working on all of these restrictions and the Jim Crow era and things like this, segregation, that actually created a lot of problems and made things worse.
00:26:46.000It actually made sure that not only did they have no wealth, but they had no access to any of the existing infrastructure.
00:26:54.000The Klan, for instance, when they went around and the horrible things the Klan did, and then finally we shut them down and got rid of them.
00:27:00.000Seems like the Republicans had a lot going on shutting down the racists.
00:27:04.000So the issue is, the way I viewed it years ago when I was talking about systemic racism, is that if we create laws, like I use Ferguson and St.
00:27:13.000Louis as a really good example because I did a documentary on it.
00:27:33.000You have the remnants of this system disproportionately affecting the black community.
00:27:39.000It is today predominantly an issue of class.
00:27:42.000That's why I believe class issues are the issues we should focus on and why I really don't like these far leftists and this weird extremist ideology.
00:27:51.000But what happens in Ferguson is that you have all these tiny cities with their own police departments.
00:27:56.000So if there's someone who's poor and their license plate is expired, they have to make a choice.
00:28:01.000Go to work or quit and find a job closer.
00:28:31.000So I can't give you the really great historical detail on redlining, but it was generally a racist housing practice where they created specific areas where they would only allow certain minorities to go or something to that effect.
00:28:42.000I'm much more familiar with blockbusting, which is like nightmarishly racist.
00:28:48.000So what they would do is, back in the day when this was all legal and there was literal institutional racism, which for the most part, we have some of this, not in the way most people think.
00:29:13.000And then go and basically threaten all the white people with, you know, some kind of like racial fear, and tell them, oh no, oh, there goes the neighborhood, oh, you better sell to us!
00:29:25.000Then all of these scared white people would sell very, very quickly, scared their property value would go down.
00:29:30.000Then the real estate company would own up all the property, they'd get rid of, they'd, you know, eventually end the
00:29:35.000lease or evict the black family, and then they'd own everything at a premium.
00:29:38.000So it's alright, like at a discounted rate.
00:29:40.000Coercion, but they just didn't know that it was going on, so it's like an illegal...
00:29:44.000It's illegal now, like ended in the 80s.
00:29:46.000But this was like exploiting racial fears back in the day.
00:29:50.000Yeah, and so this created, this created, uh, like the way I describe it to people is, I guess you can call it historic
00:32:08.000We basically created, like, early on, two different train tracks.
00:32:12.000And there's one that's a really nice fancy train, and one that's kind of just, like, built from the scraps from, like, people who just kind of pieced it together.
00:32:20.000And we got rid of these laws where we're like, okay, everybody can freely move about these trains.
00:32:26.000But it's very similar still to ending slavery, where you took people who had no familial wealth and no education to pass down because they were, you know, they were slaves, right?
00:34:07.000Yeah, if you've got a little bit of money in the bank, you're not making enough interest to... But once you start making interest, then there's an incentive to hold, which I don't like.
00:34:14.000If you could somehow make, like, a crypto that slowly lost value unless it was traded... They do.
00:34:19.000Well, they naturally... Cryptos naturally lose value because they... Yeah, they make more of it.
00:34:25.000Yeah, well, because they... Well, I should say, like, Bitcoin, because there's a finite amount of coins, eventually it's gonna deflate.
00:34:32.000But anyway, the main point about all of this is that I'm not, I think, you know, Trump is a bit harsh when he says you're drinking the Kool-Aid.
00:36:21.000I started doing YouTube and it just didn't jive with that industry at the time because they would Google my stuff and see me talking about what we're talking about now and it scared them.
00:36:32.000Yeah, it's like that song, uh, there's like a really funny cartoon I once saw, it's a music video for the song, it's like, I think it's called Little Boxes, and it's, someone did an animation, and it's basically like little kids with round, like there's little like stick figure people, they're not really stick figures, but then they go into a factory where a giant clamp smashes their heads into cubes, and then they come out like, you know, just like zombies.
00:36:54.000Dude, I feel like that's what the public school system is doing.
00:36:56.000They went to the schools, This is why it's crazy.
00:36:59.000I feel like, you know, we've got a bunch of stories and a bunch of rhetoric coming out now about Trump being, like, the president of white America.
00:37:06.000And you've got Brian Stelter from CNN feigning shock that Trump banned critical race theory.
00:37:20.000Critical race theory is basically our concept of intersectionality, and they make it as confusing as humanly possible.
00:37:26.000Because the whole point is to criticize what you're talking about, and this can be any kind of theory.
00:37:30.000So any critical, like critical literature theory, is where you go into literature not to read it and learn about the culture that came before you, but to criticize it and find problems with it.
00:38:10.000And so I don't know if you've ever seen that comic where the aliens, it's like the little blue purple aliens, and they're like looking at a cat eating food.
00:38:18.000And they were like, the small mammal we have captured is consuming hydrocarbons.
00:38:26.000And I see these and I'm like, they're just, that's just coneheads.
00:38:29.000Coneheads is an old Saturday Night Live sketch.
00:38:32.000They made a movie, you know, like Lorne Michaels, SNL, and it's about these aliens who they have coneheads, and the way they talk is, like, instead of calling something a cookie, they would call it a chocolate-infused hydrocarbon mass.
00:38:44.000I see you are eating a chocolate-infused hydrocarbon mass.
00:39:06.000I want you to write a thousand words on, you know, this globe and they would be like, well, I'll just use a hundred adjectives to describe what it is.
00:39:13.000Instead of saying it's a solar powered moving globe, we'll say it is a electromagnetically induced rotation device.
00:39:25.000Einstein would make a big deal about explaining things as simply as possible.
00:39:29.000If you can't explain something simple, then you're not able to get it done.
00:39:34.000Let me explain to a five-year-old. I'll read you a couple things. They say firstly
00:39:38.000Critical race theory proposes that white supremacy and racial power are maintained over time and in particular
00:40:09.000The white skin that some Americans possess is akin to owning a piece of property in that it grants privileges to the owner that a renter, in this case a person of color, would not be afforded.
00:40:22.000So we We, I say, but someone with white skin, which technically it's not actually white.
00:44:02.000Like, it could be that this stuff's getting funded by someone that wants to create division, like, from the top of the top of the top, like, Chinese government or whoever.
00:44:10.000I mean, it's total conspiracy theories.
00:44:11.000I myself have not read White Fragility, and I probably should, but I'm just right.
00:45:19.000She's straight up saying she is not comfortable around people who aren't white.
00:45:23.000And then all of a sudden, now these universities, which probably read these books because it was a bestseller, are creating spaces where she'll feel more comfortable.
00:45:43.000So if you're unfamiliar with someone because of the color of their skin, if you're surrounded by all black people your whole life and then you go and there's white people around, maybe that will be just new.
00:45:54.000So there's a discomfort because it's new.
00:47:07.000There was one woman, she was like, all on Twitter, they're talking about privilege.
00:47:11.000They're like, when I was, you know, 20, I got drunk and crashed my car and the cop gave me a slap on the wrist.
00:47:16.000And I'm like, yes, and you lived in, you know, the Berkshires, like you lived in Long Island and the Hamptons, and you had a very wealthy family and the cops were, someone stuffed a lot of cash into the, you know, the right person's pocket.
00:47:27.000And you're not going to get in trouble because you're a rich person, not because you're white, because you were rich.
00:47:31.000Shoot, bail is a, the whole system, ever since they would ransom prisoners from like ancient warfare, it was all about taking a Duke prisoner and then ransoming off immediately.
00:47:41.000If he could afford it, otherwise they sit in prison.
00:47:52.000So, they've had these knee-jerk reactions in New York with cashless bail, which has resulted in criminals laughing and walking out and committing more crimes.
00:48:02.000It was something like non-violent crimes would be no cash bail, because they argued it wasn't fair that you would put a monetary value on whether someone has a right to continue their life while they're, you know, not proven guilty yet.
00:48:14.000And you know, I agree with the sentiment.
00:48:16.000I just think they, in practice, they screwed everything up and they did it horrible, horribly wrong.
00:48:20.000And I think there should have been a trial period on specific, like one or two specific instances, or it should have just been straight up case-by-case basis.
00:48:27.000But there's a good point to be made about bail systems and how it disproportionately affects poor people.
00:48:34.000You go to jail and they say you gotta spend 600 bucks to get out and you don't have it.
00:48:39.000You lose your job, you lose your apartment.
00:48:46.000I've often said I would prefer to err on the side of freedom.
00:48:50.000In which case, it is better that ten guilty persons escape than one innocent person suffer, right?
00:48:55.000The only problem is that in New York where they did this, they also take away your right to self-defense.
00:48:59.000So if you're going to release criminals who are going to go around committing crimes, and you're also telling people that defense is restricted as well, you're creating a likelihood of crimes to be committed and an inability of individuals to protect their homes, their friends, and their families.
00:49:14.000So it's kind of like I think, you know, hardcore authoritarianism is the wrong direction.
00:49:20.000But anyway, the general point I'm trying to make about all this is just they conflate race with cash.
00:49:39.000They let you out because you don't need to pay bail because you can't afford it, so they do some social thing where they just let you out anyway.
00:50:48.000You know, rights being trampled over, that's getting crazy.
00:50:50.000But also think about, if there was some dude who was accused of a crime, and he got arrested, and they said, you gotta pay bail, I'll tell you what, we'll do cashless bail, just promise to come back, which they probably wouldn't have done way back then.
00:51:02.000But everybody's armed, it's, you know, farms out in the middle of nowhere, they're all assuming they gotta protect themselves anyway.
00:51:08.000Now we've got people in big cities stacked on top of each other, everything smells like sour milk, and they're fighting all the time.
00:51:14.000And when I say fighting all the time, I don't mean that's, like, getting worse.
00:51:16.000Actually, violent crime is going down.
00:51:37.000It is better that ten guilty persons escape than one innocent person suffer.
00:51:40.000But anyway, we're going off on a tangent.
00:51:42.000This is more of an ethical discussion.
00:51:46.000The point I was basically bringing up about everything they're doing is that when they talk about how they got away with committing crimes, because they are racists, they assume race is the driving factor for human motivation.
00:51:59.000So here's the important way to frame it.
00:52:02.000People's perception about what is happening in the world is based on how they view them, like how they themselves work in the world, right?
00:52:11.000So if somebody in a white, progressive, upper-class neighborhood gets into a car accident while they're drunk, and the cop comes up and says, uh-oh, we're gonna let you off with a warning, you know, this is the mayor's daughter, or whatever, or like, this is the daughter of a high-powered lawyer, we're not gonna get into it, we're gonna let you go, Because they are racists themselves, and because they judge people based on race, they assume they're being judged based on their race as well.
00:53:35.000This is why I was talking about the Russian Revolution, man.
00:53:37.000If you ignore the underclass for too long, which is why I like Donald Trump, at least speaking out against it.
00:53:41.000And I'm a little afraid against... I don't want to get too emotional about Biden, but just people that aren't there, people that are kind of vacant to the issues.
00:53:48.000The underclass will connect on some dangers, which is kind of what we're looking at.
00:53:53.000I think it's a lot of poor people out on the street rioting.
00:54:26.000I grew up in a mixed area, and when crimes were committed and things happened, you could not assume it was based on race, because everybody was a different race!
00:54:35.000Everybody had different skin color, different parents, some people had an accent, some people didn't.
00:54:39.000So when something would happen, you couldn't see a pattern in that.
00:54:42.000But when you get people like Robyn D'Angelo just telling you over and over again, remember that time that cop let you go?
00:54:49.000And then the young girl goes, oh, meanwhile her dad's writing a check to the mayor and he's like, this would never happen, you know what I mean?
00:54:55.000So this kind of thinking is contagious because Robyn D'Angelo is a racist and she's talking to people who are in higher classes, who have the class advantage.
00:55:05.000So this might be something that they never thought about before, but now that she's telling them, they're like, oh, Maybe there's something to this because I have noticed that I do have an advantage.
00:55:13.000And she wrote a book, so she has clout.
00:55:19.000No, I'm being sarcastic, but I think that that's a kind of a brainwashy thing that someone with a PhD or that wrote a book has more meaning in their words.
00:55:27.000Somebody said, what was the goal, you know, what is the end goal of critical race theory?
00:55:31.000And it's to leverage white guilt for money.
00:56:26.000I gotta know their individual histories.
00:56:28.000Let's talk about some of the news that's sweeping the country, all right?
00:56:32.000Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump recently announced he's gonna be banning critical race theory from federal trainings and stuff, and of course the left-wing media came out and were like, Trump's making things up.
00:57:08.000There's that meme where the one guy has a box, they all have boxes, but one guy's tall and one guy's short, and the short guy can't see over the fence, so you give the tall guy's box to the short guy, and then the short guy has two boxes, but then they can all see over the fence.
00:57:20.000What if the tall guy on his box liked the breeze?
00:57:24.000Right, then who's right is it to take it?
00:57:25.000I think he gave it over to his own volition, but that's the part you don't see.
00:57:29.000Is it just to say, hey, maybe you like the breeze, but he can't see and it's more important than the way you feel?
00:57:34.000So we have talked about this image before.
00:57:36.000You've got three people standing up against a fence and they're all standing on a box.
00:57:41.000The tall guy and the medium guy can see the baseball game and the short guy can't.
00:57:45.000And so then what they do is they take, as you mentioned, the box and the tall guy, give it to the short guy, and now they're all standing there at equal level watching the baseball game.
00:57:52.000One of my favorite responses to that is, they're stealing because they didn't pay.
00:57:56.000But actually, my favorite response is, the fence is really high, no one can see anything but the tall guy, and then the tall guy has his legs cut off, and he's on stumps and there's blood everywhere.
00:58:08.000And that's a better description of what they're talking about, and I'll explain it to you.
00:58:12.000What is the societal equivalent of a box?
01:01:29.000She says, Folks only understand violence in its Eurocentric framing and definition.
01:01:34.000Same as liberation, if we're being honest.
01:01:36.000So you hear violence and you already have a picture of what it looks like and you've been conditioned to reject it out of fear.
01:01:41.000What if I told you the violence required is liberating?
01:01:44.000What if I told you that there is no way for a dislocated, displaced African to truly live free without the complete destruction of whiteness?
01:01:52.000Occupation of space in our minds, bodies, souls, and communities.
01:02:15.000I mean, especially if you go by, you know, the out of Africa theory and they say that Africa was the cradle of humanity or whatever.
01:02:22.000I've heard some people say that there's actually evidence humanity may have come from other places or been in other places earlier.
01:02:27.000The point is, if the prevailing theory right now suggests that humans started in Africa and succeeded greatly, then wouldn't it be hard work and perseverance as a trait of blackness?
01:04:00.000Yeah, violence, the rise of violence, what they claim to be is anti-racist when they're specifically talking about people of a certain race being violent to liberate themselves, to feel good about it.
01:04:10.000I think the problem is that you're blaming any one species or any one race.
01:04:16.000Even, you know, we're all in this together as a human race.
01:04:19.000We function better in a group regardless of our skin or the way we look or smell or sound or any of that stuff.
01:06:28.000It is just an alternate spelling of the word woman with an X instead of an A or an E. So it's pronounced, they say it's pronounced like woman, but come on, let's be honest.
01:06:37.000If you showed that word to someone who was learning English, they would go, Wimixin?
01:06:41.000Oh, and it's the X because the XY chromosome, it's pronounced like a Y, but it's the X chromosome.
01:06:54.000Wimixin is a spelling of women that's more inclusive and progressive.
01:06:58.000The term sheds lights on the prejudice, discrimination, and institutional barriers Wimixin have faced, and explicitly includes non-cisgendered women.
01:07:06.000So what they're basically saying is that the word woman does not include trans women.
01:07:19.000So, among the left, when they say trans women are women, the idea that you would need to create a new word, Wimixen, is transphobic, because you're basically saying that trans women are not defined by the word women.
01:07:32.000This is the inherent problem of the absurdity of this game they play, where nothing can ever be not offensive.
01:09:28.000But eventually over time, I guess because of the patriarchy, man became to reference colloquially human males.
01:09:35.000And I say patriarchy, but I actually, as much as it is silly, I do mean that in a certain sense.
01:09:40.000So, you know, early on, when humans were a bit more tribal and nomadic, and I'm not going to pretend to be an anthropologist or sociologist to know the finer details, but I would just surmise that there were specific descriptors between the males and the females, where men, with men, and that's my understanding.
01:09:55.000It's not like I've got the book pulled up.
01:09:57.000I can't tell you everything specifically.
01:10:09.000So, eventually when society was built, I've read, you know, this is really funny.
01:10:14.000We're going to get into these studies because if I don't pull up the sources, then people try and claim it's not true or whatever.
01:10:21.000But anyway, I was reading a study that basically said, not a study, but it was like a research paper talking about the rise of civilization and patriarchy.
01:10:28.000And what they basically said was, because women are so important to society, that women were protected, which gradually evolved into traditional gender roles of the men would go out and work and the woman would stay home where it was safe.
01:10:46.000So the idea was, In early human civilization, you have men going on the hunt and stuff like that, women were gathering and taking care of the tribe, while men were taking more risks.
01:10:59.000But because they were all really much around each other, they basically said we had words to describe different genders.
01:11:07.000But once it came to be that women were staying behind and civilization was functioning with men doing the work, then men only talking to each other would just say man because it was simpler among themselves.
01:11:18.000Or if they made a reference to all people, it typically would only refer to human males.
01:11:23.000Like they would go out on hunting missions for months at a time, the men, as far as I know.
01:11:27.000Like ancient Native American cultures, they'd go out for like weeks at a time.
01:13:14.000A lot of people like to, you know, what really bothers me about the Cult of Wokeness, and actually this is a good point to segue into this.
01:13:22.000We'll talk about Colin Kaepernick and the Cult of Wokeness.
01:13:29.000And I don't mean that as in the Christian church, I mean it as in terms of like their new religion.
01:13:34.000So first, let me introduce you to Colin Kaepernick is back in the Madden game, which people thought was really interesting because Colin Kaepernick is not a football player.
01:15:17.000A misconception among many people is that these companies decide to embrace wokeness because that will make them money.
01:15:27.000So they signed a contract with Colin gambling that it's going to sell more games.
01:15:31.000I don't know exactly what the deal with Madden was, but Nike has a big deal, it's like an all-star deal, where apparently some people are estimating like five million.
01:16:27.000Dude, I saw there's an article from Babylon Beat and it said new Netflix subscription service pumps raw septic waste straight into your living room and it was just people sitting in it and like a family sitting on a sofa laughing and smiling and there's a pipe with just sewage spraying everywhere.
01:16:41.000One of the funniest things I've ever seen.
01:18:18.000Because, well, no, it's because people are going there to practice their faith and to worship and to meet and share with other people, right?
01:18:25.000They're willing to go to these services, and to be fair, these, like, legitimate religions with, like, scripture and real basis, I can respect someone having faith and saying, we're going to go to service.
01:18:37.000I've been to church several times, and I think there are a lot of churches that do a really good job of being informative and interesting and engaging, like you mentioned.
01:18:54.000And especially young people don't want to be there.
01:18:56.000Well, yeah, you start to feel really guilty.
01:18:57.000And one of the things that I noticed with Church was that they, well, first of all, they would try to be too entertaining, and also people use it as an exercise of discipline.
01:19:09.000Well, so here's what's happening, in my opinion.
01:19:11.000When they put Colin Kaepernick in this game, when they make a movie like Ghostbusters, what they're betting on is, listen, Our company is dying.
01:19:34.000So what they do is they inject all of this into things hoping that they can create an ideological base that doesn't actually find any of this fun or funny.
01:22:57.000This is what happens when you give, you know, the zealots access to capital and they don't know how to do... They just spend the rest on marketing, basically.
01:23:04.000So they make the crappy, still make the crappy thing.
01:23:09.000No, they just don't know how to write a movie.
01:23:10.000And if you speak out against it, you get fired.
01:23:13.000So they got all these people on big contracts and they got to kind of...
01:23:16.000Imagine if someone was gonna make a new Iron Man, and they're like, we're gonna bring back Robert Downey Jr., it's gonna be big, and the guy who's gonna run it is Fred, the pastor down from, you know, my local church in, like, Fremont, Nebraska, and he's gonna be like, wouldn't it be great if, you know, Tony goes to confession, and talks about why he's, you know, his sins, and then actually, you know, does, what's it called when you have the rosary, and they tell you what to do, like, when you confess?
01:23:43.000So I wasn't a Catholic, so I don't have any knowledge.
01:23:53.000Yeah, so you're confessional, I don't know.
01:23:55.000And I mean no disrespect to people who actually practice these religions.
01:23:58.000I'm saying, wouldn't it be kind of out of place if you watched a movie and there were these weird breaks where it was just, like, very on-the-nose, overtly Catholic activities?
01:24:08.000It's like, Iron Man's like, in order to stop the evil villain Mandarin, We should all go to church on Sunday.
01:24:14.000There's a great service and then they spend 20 minutes.
01:24:16.000That's kind of like, I mean, I'm obviously exaggerating, but take that and replace that with the wokeness.
01:24:23.000And it's like the men are all really dumb and everything is like, yeah, it's like, it's like watching a religious propaganda film almost.
01:24:32.000Yeah, with really low production quality.
01:24:34.000Knowing or believing this is a religion, this new cult of personality or whatever, cult of religion, cult of race, is that what it is?
01:24:42.000And you know, I would call it a non-theistic religion because it's too widespread and there's no like, there's no Pope of, you know, there's no cult leader of wokeness.
01:24:51.000There are priests, you know, and I guess you could argue there's like Pope-ish type people, but they're like, you know, cults are specifically worshiping some individual.
01:26:51.000And I was like, it's really interesting that somebody who's not a practicing religious individual Uses the concept of confessing your sins because if you went to like China or India, that's not something culturally relevant to them They might understand it, but it's like, you know Imagine if he's saying meditate in a temple, you know and find enlightenment All right, so so we understand these concepts but confessing your sins is a very common cultural thing so we were watching the firm with Tom Cruise from 1993 and there was a scene where they were at a funeral and I was seeing like the priest read rights and all that stuff and that's why I was like
01:27:24.000The cultural relevance of this was in a mainstream Tom Cruise major motion picture.
01:27:30.000Today, they probably, of course, still have things like this, but it was interesting to see, like, back then how prominent Christianity was, even among Hollywood liberals.
01:27:58.000Jesus, you know, like marriage, as we know, it is typically an Abrahamic church.
01:28:05.000Like you can't go to the to the courthouse, but you were going to say.
01:28:08.000So I think the fact, I think this ties into Adam talking about the idea of confession even though he's not religious is because there are things that go under human understanding.
01:28:17.000Like the concept that you need to have a man and a woman and they need to be together and they need to be united by like a common cord and a cultural pressure to keep them together.
01:28:30.000You know, all of this stuff is underneath.
01:28:32.000It's not, I don't think it is just Abrahamic religion.
01:28:35.000I think it is part of the human experience.
01:28:37.000I think there's something that you can't Avoid.
01:28:39.000I think the feeling of guilt that we all get sometimes and the idea that Adam brings up about confessing is so, I don't know, like ingrained.
01:31:03.000So I know I was raised in Christianity and I know there are people who have left the church violently who say that it's nothing but fear and guilt.
01:31:09.000And there is a bit of that if you're not doing it right.
01:31:12.000But I think that basing something on fear and guilt is, in fact, untenable.
01:31:17.000I think that Christianity is not based on fear or guilt.
01:31:20.000It's based on a A healthy respect for divine providence, for God, and for other humans.
01:31:27.000And like, Jesus, if you break it down, the Christ consciousness is like, that's a good thing, but when you organize a religion, a business around it, and try and profit off of the concept is when it starts to get dangerous.
01:31:38.000Yeah, you involve human greed and stuff.
01:33:07.000So I'll retweet like a violent protest of a guy getting kicked in the gut and then I'll do like two of those and then I'll retweet like a baby smiling at the rainbow.
01:33:16.000It's like one out of five joyous things.
01:33:18.000I'm trying to keep it like some level of balance.
01:33:21.000I'll do like philosophy, but no one likes, people get angry when I try and be philosophical on Twitter.
01:33:26.000They're like, They're like, why aren't you insulting someone over something inane?
01:34:13.000And what's really funny about this is that it was Cenk Uygur of the Young Turks was insulting me because I brought this up.
01:34:21.000Somebody took a clip of me saying that, you know, when you go to the DNC, you see overweight, frumpy individuals.
01:34:27.000When you go to the RNC, you see tall, handsome, or busty women.
01:34:31.000And that's not an anecdote that's from me.
01:34:34.000It was from a feminist who was explaining to me the concept of privilege and how it breaks down between the political parties.
01:34:41.000If you go through life as handsome and attractive with, you know, tall and a deep voice and you're like ripped, people are going to do favors for you, they're going to be nice to you, and you are going, you're going to be like, I don't want redistribution of my wealth, I've been able to do it on my own.
01:34:56.000This is just a general concept of privilege.
01:34:58.000And so I was actually referencing this, so basically what happens is, In the context of Twitter, even though you could simply Google search, conservatives better looking, you would find numerous studies.
01:35:10.000There's one out of Cambridge that says people who are more attractive tend to have conservative political beliefs and become Republican.
01:35:17.000There's also another study that says in Europe, particularly it's this one referencing Finland, saying they had people who didn't know the politicians of a certain country and asked them to rate appearance and found conservative political parties had more attractive members.
01:36:59.000And what he could have done was simply said, I wonder if this is true.
01:37:03.000Instead, he ends up with, you know, several hundred people all laughing and giggling amongst themselves and high-fiving each other about how smart they are, even though I was actually referencing a real study.
01:37:33.000The general idea, the reason I'm bringing this up is, you can get people to argue against their own ideology if they're dunking on you to be angry and hateful.
01:37:43.000So here you have a bunch of leftists who are the ones advocating for this concept of privilege, arguing against that very concept because it was an opportunity to insult me and earn points.
01:37:58.000This says to me, you know, Twitter is a tribalist machine that trains people to find a tribe, disregard principle, and insult someone else.
01:38:07.000You get retweets, you get likes, you get followers.
01:38:48.000And I think it's not so cut and dry as to say who would, you know, dominate left or right.
01:38:53.000I think there'd be instances where the right would upvote crazy, and the left would upvote crazy, and you'd see a little bit back and forth.
01:38:58.000It also, I think, could actually help the left get more exposure to the right, which they need, because the right has exposure to the left.
01:39:07.000So, more importantly, I'm just like, I roll my eyes when I see, you know, Cenk Uygur of the Young Turks has a massive network.
01:39:15.000They get something like 50 million views per month.
01:39:19.000And he... Is this the nature of his work that when someone calmly references some research on like a podcast, that he turns it into a rage click without research?
01:39:33.000And so he's misinforming his audience.
01:39:35.000They were all thinking that they're so much smarter and better.
01:39:38.000And the crazy thing was how they were insulting my appearance.
01:39:41.000I'm like, but I did not directly insult anybody.
01:39:44.000I said, you tend to see this at the RNC, you tend to see it at the DNC.
01:39:47.000And it was actually a feminist who made a video about this explaining it.
01:39:50.000Yeah, but I don't think that was in the video, was it?
01:39:52.000I think it all came from because it was out of context.
01:39:54.000They didn't see the study and what you're talking about.
01:39:57.000Because it was like, you know, I once read a study and, you know, basically what they said was, and instead of doing a Google search to be like, I wonder if that's true.
01:40:06.000They immediately just say, let's drum up hate for money.
01:40:09.000It's like the ability to make snap judgments about people and things is, is very like read, read the title, but don't read the article and make a comment.
01:40:18.000Like that's, that's dangerous, but maybe necessary for evolution.
01:40:22.000Like we have to be able to make quick snap judgments to survive.
01:40:26.000I think, I think information is traveling so fast it didn't travel this way before.
01:40:30.000You know, uh, I think, were we talking about World War I or something?
01:40:48.000And some news organization put the clips together and they're like, for the first time, you have video footage from both sides of an active conflict.
01:41:22.000There's, uh, I love how there's like this idea of the grifter.
01:41:27.000When I was talking to a friend of mine, he was like, bro, you just make, you know, angry videos, insulting Democrats because it's your business model.
01:41:54.000I just mean, like, one of the things that's happening right now is that there's no way I could know everything.
01:42:00.000So of course I get things wrong all the time.
01:42:02.000I'm a dude who's giving his opinion on major news, trying to use certified sources and do my best to fact-check, and there are people who are like, Tim's misinforming people.
01:42:11.000And I'm like, and so is The Young Turks, and so is Steven Crowder, and so is Six Seconds.
01:43:19.000It doesn't work in a grand scale, life libertarianism, you know, with the big cities, but that's what I'm, that's what I'm, do you leave me alone?
01:43:25.000And we're going to share, you know, our fruits and veggies.
01:43:27.000And, you know, we just got to, we got a bunch of jalapenos that just came from the garden.
01:44:30.000Watch every single news source so that you can form your own opinion.
01:44:34.000And I'm constantly listening to people and I'm trying to find what little bit of truth they have to tell me.
01:44:38.000Because 90% of it is their opinion and there's a little bit of truth in there and I'll take it and I'll use it.
01:44:42.000You know why I really want people to watch every news source?
01:44:46.000Because if you have somebody who only watches Fox News and then they watch CNN, And then you have somebody who only watches CNN and then they watch Fox News.
01:44:54.000Both of them are gonna go, CNN is lying.
01:45:04.000My favorite was when Don Lemon was talking to a panel and he goes, a lot of people on the internet are talking about, you know, black holes.
01:45:10.000And I know it's preposterous, but you know, Mary, is it preposterous?
01:45:15.000Is the missing Malaysian airplane, right?
01:46:21.000Because if Trump came out right now and said, we're doing an executive order, nonviolent offenders will be reviewed, pardoned, released, full commute, you know, sentence commuted and expunged, landslide.
01:46:53.000So he so the reason I bring him up is because to be completely honest, I should be able to be like actually hear things that but I don't know anything about Pence.
01:47:00.000I wonder if that's why Donald Trump picked him because he's a kind of a silent.
01:47:09.000And I know Kamala Harris been has been dragged heavily.
01:47:12.000But it is fair to say, look, there was a post someone made about Joe Biden wanting to legalize pot and release nonviolent offenders, and he's had it for a while.
01:48:46.000He says, do you think we are seeing a doubling down of race theory from the left since Trump essentially cut off the dragon's head by taking it out of schools?
01:48:53.000How do they counter this kind of attack from Trump?
01:49:01.000I don't know if they're doubling down.
01:49:02.000I will say the media, because if Trump came out and was like, ladies and gentlemen, pizza is great, my favorite is deep dish from Chicago, they'd be like, pizza is bad!
01:50:14.000Brandon Toms says, instead of people's attractiveness affecting their political leanings, what if people's political leanings affect their attractiveness?
01:50:21.000Imagine going through life thinking everyone owes you something.
01:50:24.000It's got to affect how you look over time.
01:50:26.000That's actually a really good point, but a better example is, imagine if you take two people who are kind of doughy, right?
01:50:31.000And you tell one person, it's your responsibility and you have to work hard.
01:50:34.000And you tell the other person, it's not your fault.
01:50:37.000It's because of all the drinks they made you eat.
01:50:39.000How do you think those people would develop?
01:50:41.000The person who was told it's their responsibility, they're gonna be like, I better start eating better and working out.
01:50:46.000The other person's gonna be like, it's not my fault.
01:50:48.000And I could see stress can make you ugly.
01:50:51.000I mean, stress can make you contorted and grow in weird ways.
01:50:56.000Like Voldemort at the last Harry Potter scene.
01:51:12.000Gareth Green says, I thought saving money rather than spending it was a virtue.
01:51:16.000Moreover, the idea of individual liberty is that everyone has the right to their own property, including money, so long as they haven't actually stolen it.
01:51:33.000Shadi Viceroy says, I wonder if y'all are noticing that Asians and white people are being forced to work harder to go to college, therefore making those folk more conservative.
01:53:17.000And then it was funny, because he walked up to some, like, right-wing militia-looking dudes, and they were, like, laughing and talking together.
01:53:22.000And I was just like, you see, it's not about race.
01:53:26.000And if the guy's like, hey, man, that's a really cool gun or whatever, and they talk and they hang out and they were getting along, I can't stand racists, man.
01:53:32.000I just want to hang out with people and have a smile and have a good time.
01:54:13.000A dude comes out with a report and he's like, breaking news, multiple sources confirm Donald Trump, you know, stole a bag of diamonds from a jewelry store.
01:54:24.000And then people are like, who are these sources?
01:54:26.000They are people who are very familiar with the incident and were very close to at the time of occurring.
01:54:31.000And it turns out it's like a group of homeless guys who are sleeping in an alley behind the jewelry store.
01:54:36.000They saw Trump leave with a bunch of jewels that he bought and paid for.
01:54:39.000But then you say, well, these guys were there.
01:54:42.000They saw Trump and we know Trump was there.
01:55:04.000So they just want to know that they asked.
01:55:06.000They don't even ask him if he did it again.
01:55:08.000They don't go to the store and ask the store owner, has anything been stolen?
01:55:11.000They don't go to the police and say, have these things been stolen?
01:55:13.000They say, this source claimed Donald Trump did a backflip off of the Eiffel Tower and landed perfectly in a superhero pose, shattering the earth beneath his feet.
01:55:22.000And then the person who claimed that is like a crazy guy in an alley going, Donald Trump!
01:55:30.000So when like the New York Times gets an anonymous source and then the Washington Post wants to confirm it, do they go to the New York Times and then they get special access?
01:55:40.000So it's supposed to be, an independent verification would be like, if someone claimed Trump stole a bag of jewels, You'd hit up the jewelry store and say, was a bag of jewels stolen from your store by the president?
01:55:50.000And if they say yes, you say, well, this is the guy telling me it literally happened.
01:56:01.000So you need like three sources to confirm.
01:56:04.000The store owner, so it typically could refer to like multiple people.
01:56:09.000But let's say you have the police chief saying, yeah, we definitely, we're tracking this store, we got the police report, here's what they said, here are the witnesses, and we've seen the evidence.
01:56:17.000Or, you've got a homeless guy in the back alley, the store owner, and the cop who responded.
01:56:23.000And so you ask to the homeless guy, what did you see?
01:56:25.000I saw Donald Trump run out of this building carrying a bag of jewels.
01:57:01.000There's actually a reward for getting it wrong.
01:57:03.000If I put out a story right now, if I was like, BREAKING NEWS EVERYONE, DONALD TRUMP DID A TRIPLE BACKFLIP OFF THE WHITE HOUSE, landed in a superhero pose, million views, I get all that money from ad revenue, and then I wait a day, and I go, we have a correction, 6 in the morning, we have a correction issue, Donald Trump didn't actually do the backflip, and we're sorry for the error.
01:57:22.000I still got the views, I still made the money, I pay nothing back, and the retraction makes money too!
01:58:01.000Yeah, you gotta be, you gotta be skeptical.
01:58:04.000You've got Trump Derangement Syndrome to believe that Donald Trump's sitting there looking at graves and going, what a bunch of losers!
01:58:09.000Like that's a comic book villain version of Trump written by a 15 year old who was like, and then the orange man said the veterans were losers and suckers.
01:58:49.000So the official story was that Trump cancelled his trip to the Ayn Marn Cemetery because he thought the veterans were losers and suckers and didn't want to get his hair wet.
01:58:58.000It's been confirmed by numerous sources that's not true.
01:59:03.000Yep, at last count it was 21 different sources.
01:59:05.000John Bolton, who hates Trump, defended him, saying, that's not true, we cancelled this because of rain, I was there, I heard him saying it, and they were like, but maybe a different point Trump said it, and he goes, I can't prove a negative.
01:59:17.000Maybe someone said something, but I was there and this didn't happen.
01:59:21.000I have a really good friend who, a few years ago, was like, you know, it's okay to use dirty tactics to get him out of office.
01:59:27.000And I was like, dude, that's what the Italian fascists did.
01:59:29.000They decided to use violence because they thought it was so bad.
02:00:38.000Like, there's a mayoral candidate in Portland who says she's overtly Antifa.
02:00:42.000We've seen all the violence from these people.
02:00:43.000That's when you've got to start paying attention.
02:00:45.000But the conservatives are getting rid of these people.
02:00:47.000They're like, we don't want them around.
02:00:49.000And so I'm like, if I have to have President Trump and a bunch of Republicans who I really disagree with, but at least we all agree on the fact this country exists, I have no choice.
02:00:57.000You can't vote for Joe Biden because he's actually negotiating with people who have these insane views and entertain violence.
02:01:05.000And then he's trying to come off like, but I'm tough on crime.
02:01:07.000Yeah, you were, but now you're just like falling asleep.
02:06:44.000And the Ice Woman's like, the man that made a video about me.
02:06:47.000No, they're looking at a monitor, and there's like a grandma holding a cat, and it's like Grandma's Cat Channel, and they're like, HAHAHA!
02:06:53.000And then grandma's and then grandma's sitting at home with her cat and she's like I made just enough money this month to pay for my medical bills and then like YouTube goes oh The algorithm the AI algorithm that's on a rampage right now.
02:07:05.000The Terminator is not gonna be walking around shooting people He's gonna be banning and censoring people dude.
02:07:09.000That's how it that's how it started I don't know if you saw Terminator 1.5.
02:07:11.000You want to know what's crazier Terminator Terminator look We're not- we're never gonna see a world where robots march around killing people.
02:07:18.000You wanna know what the world's gonna be?
02:07:20.000A bunch of nanodrones going into your ears?
02:07:23.000It's gonna be you waking up being like, I- I- I- You're gonna look at your phone and you're gonna see stuff, and it's gonna perfectly predict and manipulate your behavior.
02:07:31.000To where you're like, I need to go to the store and buy, you know, a- a- a shovel!
02:07:37.000Oh, because they want to work synergistically with us.
02:07:39.000The AI doesn't want to destroy us, it wants to use us.
02:07:41.000But, but, well, I don't, I think if you're talking about like a total sentient AI, I'm talking about, if we made an AI, it's not going to have emotions and feelings and goals like we do.
02:07:50.000You know, have, have you seen the, the, you ever watched, you watched Doctor Who?
02:09:58.000Yeah, they would do like studies where they do simple math problems and they would give a kid like lemonade before they did it or nothing, and the kids that did nothing would just lose interest.
02:10:09.000Brian Bourgeois says, we all need to band together and realize we all have more in common than we have different, Trump is not part of the club, and why they, MSM and establishment politicians, hate him.
02:11:03.000Simius the first says the dictionary definition of a cult is a social group that is defined by its unusual religious spiritual or philosophical beliefs or by or by it can be or it can be defined as a common interest in particular personality interesting Here we go.
02:11:19.000Tim, etymology of sin goes further back to ancient Greece.
02:13:37.000CoinFlipWolf says, seriously, how do people not think these rioters are terrorists?
02:13:41.000Have we gotten so far into 1984 that people can't see what's right in front of them?
02:13:45.000Yeah, when they go to houses, when they jump on top of them, when they do the fist in front of your face and demand you salute, when they threaten to start fires.
02:13:53.000This is the crazy thing, like, they've been starting fires all throughout Oregon, and now there's wildfires everywhere.
02:15:11.000I always very much will prioritize research to build up power, weapons, and better forces.
02:15:18.000And then when they start acting a fool, You know, at first, I'll just say, hey, hey.
02:15:23.000But if they keep pushing, I'll just crush their capital.
02:15:26.000You know, you can't raise the capital, though.
02:15:27.000But I'll just, like, wipe out some of their cities, and be like, now I'm gonna go back and mind my own business, and you stay away from me.
02:15:33.000It doesn't bode well, because I guess the AI for civilization doesn't understand these complex political, you know, things.
02:15:39.000Like, everyone gets mad at you, and they're like, you killed people.
02:15:42.000They invaded my country and tried stealing one of my cities, so I went back and I told them to F off.
02:15:47.000Your response was, this is kind of like the real world with total war, like if there's an invasion or like a bomber bombs a city, you don't nuke the capital as a response because you don't take total, you have a equal response.
02:16:01.000And so the game kind of has that built in.
02:16:03.000But I do the same, I'll take their entire country.
02:16:05.000If they mess with me, I'll take over every city of theirs, assimilate.
