Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Media Manipulates George Floyd Narrative As Chauvin Trial Gets HEATED w-FreedomToons

00:00:00.000 you you

00:00:49.000 you Ladies and gentlemen, today is April 5th, 2021, also known

00:01:16.000 as 4-5, which will from this day forth be known as Trump Day in

00:01:20.000 honor of the 45th president.

00:01:22.000 Fantastic.

00:01:23.000 Good.

00:01:23.000 Perfect.

00:01:24.000 I deserve my own day.

00:01:26.000 And we're going to have to make 4-7 about me as well, because I am running in 2024.

00:01:31.000 I'll have two holidays.

00:01:33.000 That de facto means...

00:01:34.000 April 6th will be Biden Day.

00:01:36.000 Exactly.

00:01:37.000 That's going to be the best day of the year.

00:01:38.000 Someone tweeted at me, they were like, in order for it to be fair, then tomorrow has to be Biden Day.

00:01:41.000 And I'm like, okay.

00:01:42.000 I'll celebrate Biden Day, dude.

00:01:43.000 Just speak in gibberish.

00:01:45.000 Say sentences that don't mean anything.

00:01:47.000 Yeah, fall down the stairs and struggle to speak.

00:01:49.000 It'll be like a thing.

00:01:50.000 Oh my goodness.

00:01:50.000 Someone's sad at this point.

00:01:51.000 I kind of feel bad making fun of them.

00:01:53.000 In like a thousand years, people will put on goofy hats and then jump down the stairs while making strange noises and not understand the tradition.

00:01:58.000 The tradition of Biden Day.

00:02:00.000 Biden Day.

00:02:01.000 Ladies and gentlemen!

00:02:03.000 We had news, and then we started making jokes, and then we all forgot what was going on.

00:02:06.000 Unbelievable.

00:02:07.000 No, we have some interesting news.

00:02:08.000 I've been watching the Chauvin trial, and there's something interesting that I've noticed, because I'm watching this trial, and it's definitely that there's one livestream playing, but two different versions of reality.

00:02:20.000 I guess depending on your bias.

00:02:22.000 And when I'm watching this trial, I'm very interested in the defense and the prosecution.

00:02:25.000 I gotta say, the prosecution got a bunch of very excellent points across today about Chauvin.

00:02:32.000 Apparently, he never received training, where we've seen this photo of the guy with the knee on his neck.

00:02:36.000 Oh, he wasn't trained in that.

00:02:38.000 So they made some interesting points, but there's always a counter.

00:02:40.000 Now, where it gets really interesting is how the media incessantly just chooses to frame it as though Derek Chauvin is losing, and I don't believe that's the case.

00:02:50.000 I think, based on what we've seen so far, acquittal is likely.

00:02:55.000 But that's just my opinion, and I could be wrong.

00:02:56.000 I don't know what the jury is thinking.

00:02:58.000 And I'm seeing a lot of the same stuff the jury is, as many of you are.

00:03:01.000 I could be entirely wrong, and I think it's very, very middle of the road.

00:03:04.000 It's 50-50.

00:03:04.000 It could go either way.

00:03:06.000 I'm kind of leaning towards acquittal because a lot of stuff that's come out.

00:03:08.000 For instance, the doctor today who testified said that George Floyd died of hypoxia.

00:03:12.000 And then even said, when asked, that fentanyl, the main reason it's dangerous is because it depresses your respiratory system, which causes hypoxia.

00:03:22.000 I thought that was a very excellent point by the defense.

00:03:24.000 And then the counter, I guess, is just, well, it could have been choking, I suppose.

00:03:29.000 But it doesn't seem like the physical evidence to Floyd's body backs that up.

00:03:32.000 We'll get into all this stuff.

00:03:33.000 What's fascinating is how the media changes the headlines of their stories to reflect an anti-Chauvin narrative, setting it up that he's going to lose and will be convicted.

00:03:43.000 And then when people keep seeing the news saying like, oh, defense says this, and they testify this, and you keep hearing how awful it is, and you keep hearing how it should be Chauvin going to jail, and they omit the key evidence that defends him, Well then, what do you think people are gonna do when he gets acquitted?

00:03:57.000 If he does, their expectations will be set very high.

00:04:00.000 They'll say something like, I don't understand.

00:04:02.000 I read all the news.

00:04:03.000 He should have been convicted based on the headlines I saw.

00:04:06.000 And then riots will happen.

00:04:08.000 So we're gonna talk about that.

00:04:08.000 We got a couple other stories too.

00:04:09.000 Clarence Thomas issues this massive opinion, opening the door to potentially sue or regulate Big Tech and Section 230.

00:04:17.000 So we're gonna get into this.

00:04:18.000 And as most of you probably realized already, because for a moment someone was speaking like Trump, Seamus from Freedom Tunes is here.

00:04:25.000 I'm back.

00:04:26.000 It is fantastic to be back here.

00:04:27.000 Thank you for having me on, Tim.

00:04:29.000 I'm glad you're here, Seamus.

00:04:31.000 Who are you?

00:04:31.000 What's that?

00:04:32.000 Oh, yeah, that's a good question.

00:04:33.000 So my name's Seamus Goglin.

00:04:34.000 I have a YouTube channel called Freedom Tunes.

00:04:36.000 I make educational cartoons and political satire, mostly political satire, on the Freedom Tunes channel these days.

00:04:41.000 So go check that out if you'd like.

00:04:43.000 We just released a pretty funny video about Joe Biden.

00:04:45.000 We're going to be releasing another cartoon Thursday.

00:04:47.000 We release a video once a week.

00:04:49.000 So go over there and enjoy him.

00:04:51.000 Yes.

00:04:52.000 You're also very learned in history, which is always refreshing to have you on.

00:04:57.000 I appreciate that.

00:04:57.000 Thank you.

00:04:58.000 Chat about the past.

00:04:59.000 I appreciate that.

00:05:01.000 Are you making fun of the way Midwesterners sound?

00:05:04.000 No, no, I'm Midwesterner too.

00:05:05.000 Is this from the past?

00:05:06.000 You should take offense to us as well because we're from the same... Chicago.

00:05:09.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:05:10.000 From the past over there.

00:05:11.000 Nobody says Chicago.

00:05:11.000 It's like a weird stereotype for people who don't live there.

00:05:13.000 It's like Chicago.

00:05:14.000 No, that's the weird thing too.

00:05:16.000 Yeah, my dad's born and raised on the South Side, and he, like, pronounces the A less than I do when he says Chicago.

00:05:20.000 He says, like, Chicago, which is not exactly like that.

00:05:23.000 Like, I can't even do it.

00:05:24.000 I don't know.

00:05:24.000 The A, it's just an offensive stereotype, and that's not actually how people from the Chicago area sound.

00:05:28.000 Okay.

00:05:28.000 Yeah.

00:05:29.000 Yeah.

00:05:29.000 I apologize.

00:05:30.000 It's extremely offensive.

00:05:31.000 I am Ian Crossland.

00:05:31.000 Hey, everyone.

00:05:33.000 It is true.

00:05:33.000 And you can always follow me at iancrossland.net, where I do, well, I don't know.

00:05:37.000 I just do weird stuff.

00:05:38.000 No, he does!

00:05:38.000 I try and unify the planet.

00:05:40.000 Ian, yeah, when Tim asked who Ian was, he's like, wait a minute.

00:05:42.000 I don't.

00:05:43.000 I have a broad scheme.

00:05:45.000 Ian's not actually here.

00:05:48.000 He's an astral projection.

00:05:51.000 We had a dude who just joined the team, and he came here several times, but Ian was never around.

00:05:58.000 He was like, I'm convinced that Ian's not real.

00:06:00.000 I was like, well, that's the truth.

00:06:02.000 Ian's an astral projection.

00:06:04.000 He's a hologram.

00:06:04.000 He's not really He's on the show.

00:06:06.000 He's not a real person.

00:06:07.000 It's a vibrating multitude of spheres.

00:06:10.000 That's about all I can say.

00:06:12.000 Great intro.

00:06:12.000 All right.

00:06:14.000 Lydia's also here.

00:06:14.000 What about Lydia?

00:06:16.000 I do eventually get to myself once you guys are finished.

00:06:19.000 I was going to say that our new employee has been having a lot of fun saying that we are all just figments of Ian's imagination.

00:06:26.000 I like this guy.

00:06:29.000 There's no studio, it's just like a shack in the woods with Ian in it.

00:06:32.000 And he imagines the studio and it just forms around him.

00:06:35.000 That would be an interesting movie, actually.

00:06:39.000 Anyway, my friends, we're supposed to be serious, but it's just so hard these days.

00:06:43.000 It's probably good that we're joking around a bit because we're going to get real serious with this upcoming news and the consequences for it.

00:08:18.000 The shipping cost is where they get you, really.

00:08:20.000 You might be if you look on IMDB.

00:08:22.000 You're probably listed as a producer or something.

00:08:26.000 This show's on IMDB.

00:08:28.000 I think everyone goes on, all the guests and everything.

00:08:30.000 I don't know who manages that stuff.

00:08:30.000 Beautiful.

00:08:31.000 Me neither.

00:08:32.000 How about we talk about the news, my friends?

00:08:34.000 sure i mean if you want if that's what you want to do i thought we could talk about our days but i was traveling most of the day i'm a little tired but no that's my feelings don't matter let's talk about they don't you know it matters facts earlier media earlier today hey earlier today my friends So I was listening to the trial live, and there was this really powerful point between the defense and the ER doctor who was treating George Floyd, trying to save his life.

00:09:01.000 The defense said, you know, long story short, like, what happened?

00:09:04.000 And they're giving really in-depth detail.

00:09:07.000 Essentially, the ER doctor says that George Floyd died due to hypoxia, which is, can you give us the medical breakdown of what that means?

00:09:15.000 Pretty straightforward.

00:09:16.000 Hypoxia is just low oxygen.

00:09:18.000 Hypo is low and oxy is an oxygen.

00:09:20.000 There you go.

00:09:21.000 And he went on to say that there was a high concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood.

00:09:25.000 Now, I think on the surface, the average person hears, well, he was suffocated, right?

00:09:30.000 The knee was on his neck.

00:09:31.000 Well, what the defense basically said was, can fentanyl cause hypoxia or a high concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood?

00:09:38.000 And the doctor said, yes.

00:09:39.000 Can methamphetamine?

00:09:40.000 The doctor said, yes.

00:09:42.000 And the defense then said, Is one of the reasons that there is such a warning about fentanyl is that it depresses the respiratory system.

00:09:50.000 And this is what shocked me.

00:09:51.000 The doctor goes, it's the reason.

00:09:53.000 And I went, whoa, from the doctor.

00:09:56.000 He didn't just volunteer up.

00:09:57.000 He didn't just say yes or no.

00:09:58.000 He volunteered up like, no, that's legit.

00:10:01.000 Exactly why fentanyl is bad.

00:10:02.000 It causes hypoxia.

00:10:05.000 Interesting.

00:10:06.000 Now, it seems like the doctor still went on to say he thinks that it was, you know, he had no reason to believe it was a drug overdose.

00:10:12.000 In which case, the doctor still, you know, there's a cross-examination.

00:10:15.000 The prosecution comes in and says, but isn't it possible that having your knee on someone's neck could result in hypoxia, which causes the heart to stop?

00:10:21.000 And the doctor said yes.

00:10:22.000 I still think it's very, very fascinating.

00:10:23.000 The doctor said it's the reason fentanyl is so dangerous.

00:10:27.000 And so I went, whoa!

00:10:28.000 I was like, we should definitely talk about this.

00:10:29.000 So I Google-searched it, right?

00:10:30.000 I Google-searched, you know, defense Chauvin hypoxia, and I see this.

00:10:33.000 Check this out.

00:10:34.000 Look at this Google search.

00:10:36.000 You can see I searched for Dr. Chauvin hypoxia.

00:10:38.000 Five hours ago, ABC News ER doc theorizes lack of oxygen stopped Floyd's heart.

00:10:43.000 You can see in these, you know, the text here that, you know, the questions whether or not some drugs can cause hypoxia.

00:10:49.000 You can see right here as well.

00:10:51.000 Baltimore Sun, Derek Chauvin trial, ER doctor testifies.

00:10:53.000 You scroll down.

00:10:54.000 There's even more.

00:10:55.000 George Floyd's heart likely stopped hypoxia.

00:10:57.000 What do you think happens if I click this story?

00:11:00.000 All right, let's open up ABC.

00:11:03.000 Police.

00:11:04.000 Let me turn this off.

00:11:05.000 The headline's different.

00:11:07.000 Kneeling on Floyd's neck violated policy.

00:11:09.000 Well, that's not what I Google searched.

00:11:11.000 I didn't search for that headline.

00:11:13.000 I wanted to know about the hypoxia.

00:11:15.000 This is why you use DuckDuckGo.

00:11:17.000 Well, hold on.

00:11:18.000 Let's go to the Baltimore Sun.

00:11:19.000 Derek Chauvin trial.

00:11:20.000 ER doctor testifies.

00:11:21.000 All right, well, let's learn about the ER doctor so I can pull up the source and show everybody.

00:11:24.000 Derek Chauvin trial.

00:11:25.000 Kneeling on George Floyd's neck violated our policy.

00:11:27.000 Well, that's not what I Google-searched.

00:11:29.000 So what's happening is that the Associated Press changed the headline in all their articles after they were already published.

00:11:36.000 So for me, who's trying to search for this to show everybody what's going on, we're getting a different story which changes the framing.

00:11:42.000 Think about it.

00:11:43.000 If the doctor said hypoxia caused this and fentanyl, it's like the main reason fentanyl is dangerous is that it can lead to hypoxia.

00:11:51.000 And then I'm like, I want to show that to people because it's a very important point for the defense.

00:11:55.000 And then all of the headlines change to say, kneeling on the neck violated policy.

00:12:00.000 Wow.

00:12:01.000 Well, all of a sudden now, the articles that I'm pulling up and would likely show someone, imagine this.

00:12:05.000 Imagine I had that story.

00:12:07.000 Right when I saw the doctor say this, I went, whoa!

00:12:09.000 And I shared that story on Facebook or Twitter.

00:12:11.000 Wow.

00:12:12.000 Then, along comes, you know, my mom or my dad or my brother, and they're like, what's this that Tim shared?

00:12:17.000 And they click it, and instead of getting the story where I'm like, this is important, they get a different story.

00:12:22.000 Joven Violent Policy.

00:12:24.000 I did not share that story.

00:12:26.000 So here I am.

00:12:27.000 We're trying to do this show.

00:12:28.000 And I was like, we definitely got to talk about that.

00:12:29.000 That's a very interesting point.

00:12:30.000 It's not a guarantee that he's, you know, Chauvin will be acquitted because of this.

00:12:33.000 I just thought it was interesting to bring up and to also bring up that very well, like putting a knee on someone's neck could result in hypoxia.

00:12:39.000 The reason why I think this is important though, is it offers a counterpoint to the narrative we've all already heard.

00:12:44.000 When I try to pull up the articles, we get something entirely different.

00:12:48.000 That's creepy manipulation, stealth editing that shapes the narrative.

00:12:54.000 And here's my fear.

00:12:56.000 When I'm reading all this news, I see a lot of really, really important points in the defense.

00:13:00.000 Notably that there's training materials they've highlighted, a PowerPoint showing a cop kneeling on someone's neck.

00:13:06.000 This stuff many people have seen.

00:13:08.000 In the trial, there was an argument between the defense and the judge as to whether or not this actually mattered because Chauvin did not undergo that specific training.

00:13:16.000 The argument from the defense was, if the cops are all, you know, doing this and saying this is an updated policy, then it makes sense that this might, you know, exist.

00:13:24.000 These things don't appear.

00:13:25.000 Like, the points from the defense about hypoxia, about drug use, about, you know, what we talked about the other day, what was it?

00:13:31.000 I can't remember all the details.

00:13:33.000 The media always headlines with, Chauvin guilty, right?

00:13:37.000 So now we have this.

00:13:38.000 We have the police chief testified that Chauvin violated policy.

00:13:42.000 But there's another really crazy story, and the media frames it.

00:13:46.000 Check this out, from Forbes.

00:13:48.000 Derek Chauvin defense shows video clip to suggest knelt on George Floyd's shoulder.

00:13:54.000 Not his neck.

00:13:54.000 That's right.

00:13:56.000 And when the police chief was shown the video, get this, the police chief was shown the video, and the defense said, based on this alternate camera angle from a body camera, would you say that Chauvin, it appeared he was kneeling on Floyd's shoulder?

00:14:10.000 The police chief said, yes.

00:14:13.000 Okay. Shouldn't these things be like, look, we all know that the narrative has been Chauvin

00:14:19.000 kneeled on Floyd's neck. It's it's you know, it's bad and he's a bad cop. He was fired for it.

00:14:23.000 When evidence comes out that suggests the official narrative may be wrong.

00:14:27.000 Shouldn't that be the highlight for a lot of reasons?

00:14:30.000 Yeah. Can humans overcome cognitive dissonance is a big question.

00:14:34.000 And that's, I think, really, it's our duty to do that.

00:14:37.000 When we're presented with information that violates what we thought was real, we really have to let go of what we used to think was real and look at the new information.

00:14:44.000 Yeah, I mean, regardless of how you feel about this case, I haven't looked into it very deeply.

00:14:48.000 I haven't done much research on it, so I can't comment one way or the other.

00:14:51.000 But regardless, it's very frightening, though unsurprising, that big tech and these media companies would go through and try to suppress information that promotes a narrative that they're not comfortable with.

00:15:00.000 Well, here's the creepy thing.

00:15:02.000 I look at the AP.

00:15:03.000 So all these headlines from all these outlets, it's the same article.

00:15:05.000 It's the Associated Press, and they're just republishing the AP.

00:15:09.000 I don't think there's anything nefarious, necessarily.

00:15:11.000 I think there's an inherent bias with a lot of these companies.

00:15:13.000 Interesting.

00:15:14.000 Okay, fair enough.

00:15:15.000 okay more information has come out let's change the headline interesting they

00:15:18.000 initially did run the headline ER doctor suggests hypoxia fentanyl can cause this

00:15:22.000 but then they changed the headline okay which fundamentally changes the framing

00:15:27.000 of the story when people are sharing it right so here's what's crazy though

00:15:30.000 Forbes I find it particularly interesting they say suggests the

00:15:34.000 officer nothing a shoulder What's funny about suggest is they straight up said he did.

00:15:38.000 And the police chief said yes.

00:15:40.000 Look what they say, top line.

00:15:41.000 With limited evidence put forward so far to bolster his case, that's an insane thing to write.

00:15:47.000 Derek Chauvin's lead defense attorney, Eric Nelson, on Monday sought to cast doubt for jurors over one of the most prominent details of George Floyd's death, the length of time the officer had his knee on the 46-year-old black man's neck.

00:15:58.000 Interestingly, let me go down.

00:16:00.000 Nelson highlighted that while it appeared Chauvin had his knee on Floyd's neck in the video recorded by Fraser, the knee appeared to be on Floyd's shoulder blade during the same period in the body camera footage.

00:16:11.000 Asking Arradondo, would you agree that from the perspective of Officer Kong's body camera, it appeared Officer Chauvin's knee was more on Mr. Floyd's shoulder blade?

00:16:21.000 Yes, Arradondo responded.

00:16:24.000 Though the prosecution, which took the sand immediately after, was quick to highlight that this was one specific moment at a time when the ambulance had already arrived, and very shortly before they loaded Mr. Floyd onto the gurney.

00:16:34.000 We are not looking for definitive proof of innocence.

00:16:36.000 We are looking for reasonable doubt.

00:16:38.000 The burden is on the state.

00:16:39.000 They need to prove he did it, he had the intent.

00:16:42.000 If there is video footage that suggests we may be looking at the perspective wrong, and people may have incorrectly assumed that he was on the neck, that's very important.

00:16:51.000 And the police chief said yes upon looking at the body camera footage.

00:16:54.000 This is the police chief that fired these cops.

00:16:57.000 Now, what's fascinating is Forbes framing, once again, is already anti-Chauvin.

00:17:03.000 They've already made up their mind.

00:17:04.000 He's guilty, and this is just a distraction to suggest otherwise.

00:17:08.000 We all saw it.

00:17:10.000 We already saw The Nation, and who was it?

00:17:12.000 Chelsea Handler?

00:17:13.000 Yeah.

00:17:13.000 They were like, we shouldn't even have a trial.

00:17:15.000 Oh, we can have trials.

00:17:16.000 You see that?

00:17:16.000 Yeah, because the media told us what happened, so why would we need to look into it any further than that?

00:17:20.000 The argument is that, well, there's video.

00:17:22.000 We saw it happen.

00:17:22.000 Yeah.

00:17:23.000 Yeah, and that's fair, but that doesn't mean you don't need a trial.

00:17:25.000 Like, what happens if there's no trial?

00:17:27.000 How is the person punished?

00:17:27.000 Is it not by the justice system?

00:17:30.000 I mean, they're saying no trial exactly why.

00:17:34.000 It highlights the exact reason why we have trials.

00:17:36.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:17:37.000 Exactly.

00:17:38.000 If video comes out that's shaky and it's someone yelling and you see a guy with a knee on a neck, there's so much we need to know to prove or convict someone of murder.

00:17:47.000 Murder, too, requires intent.

00:17:49.000 Murder 2 and 3 require intent.

00:17:51.000 It's manslaughter that doesn't.

00:17:52.000 It's just negligence.

00:17:53.000 Yeah.

00:17:54.000 So, he has his knee on his neck?

00:17:56.000 Okay, well now there's even doubt as to whether he really had his knee on his neck.

00:17:59.000 Because alternate body camera footage that we didn't see before shows, according to the police chief, Yeah, I have no idea about any of that.

00:18:07.000 It's been so long.

00:18:07.000 I remember seeing the video.

00:18:08.000 It looked very much like he was on his neck, but also that I saw this months ago, and I can't recall all of it.

00:18:13.000 And it's possible he had it on his neck, and then he took it off his neck and put it on his shoulder.

00:18:16.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:18:17.000 But that changes the whole narrative then.

00:18:18.000 Right.

00:18:19.000 Changes the whole narrative.

00:18:20.000 It could still be manslaughter though, I think is his point.

00:18:23.000 I'm not even convinced it's gonna be manslaughter.

00:18:25.000 I mean, it very well could be.

00:18:26.000 There's definitely important points to bring up.

00:18:28.000 Like, they are saying that he violated policy.

00:18:31.000 That's true, okay?

00:18:33.000 Kneeling on the neck, violated policy, Minneapolis Police Chief testifies.

00:18:37.000 It's certainly not part of our ethics that he did get fired for it.

00:18:39.000 So, while the prosecution has the administration basically throwing Chauvin under the bus, like, dude did it, there's still good points from the defense.

00:18:49.000 And I gotta say, reasonable doubt.

00:18:52.000 We're not looking for 100% proof of innocence.

00:18:56.000 We're looking at maybe Floyd died from fentanyl.

00:18:59.000 Interesting.

00:19:00.000 Yeah.

00:19:00.000 No, that's true.

00:19:01.000 All they really need to do is establish a reasonable doubt and then he walks.

00:19:04.000 That's why I think he'll be acquitted.

00:19:06.000 Not that they've proven Floyd died of hypoxia.

00:19:09.000 But that the doctor literally said, that's the reason fentanyl is so dangerous.

00:19:15.000 Prince died from fentanyl overdose.

00:19:18.000 No physical trauma.

00:19:19.000 He just laid there and fell asleep and died.

00:19:21.000 Yeah.

00:19:21.000 So what happens with hypoxia is that your breathing slows so much.

00:19:25.000 I remember monitoring people who had been on drugs and their respirations would get down to like six a minute, which is insane.

00:19:31.000 You're supposed to be like 16 to 18 per minute.

00:19:33.000 Cause you're just like, you're basically comatose.

00:19:36.000 When you're on that much medicine, there's just, you're completely unaware of anything and you're not, your body's not even able to keep you.

00:19:41.000 I would say, I don't know the specifics about Prince, he might have been drunk too.

00:19:44.000 I mean, that, I'm sure that combo is a killer.

00:19:46.000 Well, I think, you know, I went over a lot of the evidence.

00:19:50.000 Like, it was, normally my main segment videos are like a half hour.

00:19:53.000 This one went 35 minutes.

00:19:54.000 5 minutes longer than normal.

00:19:56.000 Because I went through the charges, second, third degree, and I don't know if you saw this, Seamus, that there was another guy in the vehicle with George Floyd.

00:20:06.000 This guy's name is Maurice Lester Hall.

00:20:07.000 Did you hear about this guy?

00:20:08.000 No.

00:20:10.000 Like I said, this is part of why I'm reluctant to comment.

00:20:12.000 I know nothing about this case.

00:20:13.000 Well, check this out.

00:20:14.000 Let me tell you, Seamus.

00:20:16.000 So this guy, according to George Floyd's girlfriend, was selling drugs to George Floyd and her.

00:20:22.000 He didn't really hang out with them all that often.

00:20:25.000 And there they were together in the vehicle.

00:20:27.000 From that, it kind of sounds like he's just their dealer.

00:20:31.000 This dude, Maurice Lester Hall, was supposed to testify for the state as one of their key witnesses.

00:20:36.000 And right before, a day before he files like an emergency motion, he's pleading the fifth and refusing to testify.

00:20:42.000 You know why I think that happened?

00:20:44.000 Why?

00:20:44.000 The judge put murder three back on the table.

00:20:47.000 Murder three in Minnesota states that if you sell someone a substance and they take it and die, you are guilty of murder.

00:20:54.000 Interesting.

00:20:55.000 So I'm wondering if that... Look, that alone... I don't know if the jury can take into account the fact that a dude bailed and pleaded the fifth.

00:21:04.000 I don't think it's fair to... You're not supposed to, right?

00:21:06.000 Well, I wouldn't.

00:21:07.000 I would be like, dude, plead to the fifth, I'm not going to make assumptions about it.

00:21:10.000 Now, externally, from a media standpoint, it certainly feels like the dude got implicated and then was like, yo, I'm out.

00:21:19.000 Reasonable doubt, man.

00:21:21.000 Floyd said he was hooping in the video, if you listen to it, which means that you, the slang term is that you... Basketball.

00:21:26.000 Yeah, you play basketball. 0.99

00:21:27.000 No, it means that you put drugs inside your rectum. 1.00

00:21:30.000 Your attempt to smuggle them. 1.00

00:21:31.000 Your mouth.

00:21:32.000 Yes, yes.

00:21:33.000 And so maybe he did that.

00:21:35.000 And that's why he overdosed.

00:21:36.000 Well, this is what's interesting.

00:21:37.000 It was one of the questions asked by the defense.

00:21:40.000 And that is kind of gross.

00:21:42.000 But the defense asked the doctor if he was familiar with people,

00:21:45.000 you know, who've been who've been in in that in that sense.

00:21:49.000 And I don't think that kind of questioning actually ended up going anywhere.

00:21:52.000 He like diverted off it right away.

00:21:54.000 But I have to say, the judge said this in September about Floyd

00:21:58.000 that it looked like he had something in his mouth.

00:21:59.000 There's video that shows it, and many people have speculated that he was in the middle of a drug deal.

00:22:04.000 The cops walked up, so he threw it in his mouth and swallowed it.

00:22:08.000 And then he said he was hooping. 0.90

00:22:09.000 And a lot of times when people will be hooping, they'll put it in a plastic baggie and then put it in their butt or something for, like, to transport it, you know.

00:22:17.000 But I think also you could just put it in your mouth and swallow it without a bag, and that's also considered hooping. 0.52

00:22:22.000 But then you're just taking the drug.

00:22:23.000 I know.

00:22:24.000 That's weird, yeah.

00:22:25.000 Reasonable doubt, man.

00:22:27.000 That's all it takes.

00:22:28.000 I don't know, I look at the media and I'm trying to better understand the story, but it's like every time I pull up a story, the headline is always, like, bad for Chauvin.

00:22:36.000 But there's certainly, like, it's almost like you'd imagine the defense was doing nothing.

00:22:41.000 Just literally sitting there getting yelled at the whole time.

00:22:43.000 Because the headlines are always anti-Chauvin.

00:22:45.000 This one, was it a Forbes article you were just reading? 0.77

00:22:47.000 Says he's a black man.

00:22:49.000 They're very specific, they want to make sure you know.

00:22:51.000 And also, I mean, the footage is really, really bad for Chauvin too.

00:22:56.000 Why?

00:22:57.000 With him kneeling on his neck, I mean, there's a reason the entire country was immediately against him.

00:23:01.000 They saw it, like, even conservative people were watching, they're like, alright, that's way too far.

00:23:05.000 But there's a PowerPoint presentation brought up by the defense showing the police were trained to do that.

00:23:09.000 And they called it the recovery position, and some have pointed out the reason why you move your foot off of their back is because if your weight is in their back, then their chest can't decompress and decompress.

00:23:19.000 Interesting.

00:23:19.000 So they'll asphyxiate.

00:23:20.000 So how is it that there's a PowerPoint presentation that says they're trained to, but then the other guy says he violated training?

00:23:25.000 So that was the interesting thing in the line of questioning, where the judge was basically like, I don't know exactly what the ruling was, but it was an argument over admissibility for the PowerPoint presentation, where he was like, Chauvin wasn't in the academy at the time this was being presented.

00:23:37.000 And the defense was like, if they update their training policies, it's reasonable to suggest that Chauvin had heard this, or was told this, or in some way, this is part of what the police do.

00:23:49.000 And it was because an officer said, no one is trained to do that, that never happens.

00:23:53.000 And this is really fascinating to me, that the judge wouldn't allow it, because, by all means, say, Chauvin was never trained this.

00:23:58.000 That's an important point, and it's good for the prosecution.

00:24:00.000 Absolutely.

00:24:01.000 If Chauvin was wrong, lock him up, throw away the key.

00:24:03.000 But if someone goes on the stand and says, this violated policy, and he wasn't supposed to do this.

00:24:08.000 That's what they say.

00:24:09.000 The headline says, Derek Chauvin violated policy by doing this.

00:24:14.000 Police Academy's got a photo of someone doing it!

00:24:17.000 So how is it they could show a cop doing exactly that and say it violates policy if they're showing it to people?

00:24:22.000 So were they showing this to people before or after Chauvin was trained?

00:24:26.000 Before.

00:24:26.000 So before.

00:24:27.000 So maybe it's something that the police force did away with by the time that Chauvin had done it.

00:24:31.000 It was a couple years before, and perhaps.

00:24:34.000 But interestingly, I think the argument was that the cop said, like, no one has ever been trained to do something to that effect.

00:24:41.000 Like, the defense isn't making things like, okay, I don't want to say that.

00:24:45.000 Everybody is giving their point of view because they're trying to win a case.

00:24:49.000 My issue is that when you watch this, if you're a reasonable person, you're like, I understand their point.

00:24:55.000 I certainly understand Chauvin may have violated policy enacted with neglect, which could be manslaughter, certainly not murder.

00:25:00.000 But the defense is giving a defense, and it's reasonable doubt.

00:25:04.000 Like, I'm sorry, man.

00:25:06.000 Manslaughter is probably, in my opinion, the only thing that could potentially get him on.

00:25:09.000 And I'm not even sure that's gonna happen.

00:25:11.000 Because that's negligence.

00:25:12.000 And if they convince the jury that nine minutes is excessive, eight minutes, forty-six seconds, then definitely.

00:25:17.000 And I think if he does get charged with manslaughter, a lot of people will be upset that he wasn't charged with more than that.

00:25:24.000 That's why I think the problem is if the media keeps taking the headlines where it's like, Chauvin violated policy, or Chauvin did this, Chauvin did that, defense says this, it's always framing it as though you expect him to lose.

00:25:38.000 That's very astute.

00:25:39.000 They're grooming people to freak if he gets let off.

00:25:43.000 I don't think it's intentional.

00:25:45.000 I think it's just that they think people are more likely to click on the story because the story is bad for Chauvin and people don't like the guy.

00:25:53.000 We all have our bias, because we all saw the video.

00:25:55.000 We all made our judgments.

00:25:56.000 Everybody, even conservatives, were mad.

00:25:57.000 So then the media's like, this is the headline that will get the most traffic.

00:26:01.000 All of these stories, that headline, they do talk about hypoxia, but not in the headline, which people will read and then walk away from.

00:26:07.000 What is this?

00:26:08.000 They wrote a headline, and then when you click it, it goes, and the headline's different?

00:26:11.000 Isn't that amazing?

00:26:12.000 How did they do that?

00:26:13.000 They originally got the headline from AP, and then the AP changed their headline, so all the other ones did too?

00:26:18.000 Exactly.

00:26:18.000 Yep.

00:26:19.000 And the caching hasn't been updated.

00:26:20.000 And so Google has the old headline, and if you try and search for that story to share, you get a different story.

00:26:26.000 They should've just wrote a new story.

00:26:28.000 That's right, they should've.

00:26:29.000 That's right.

00:26:30.000 And be like, this article no longer exists if you click on that.

00:26:32.000 So the important factor here is...

00:26:34.000 Someone could share the article where they're like, wow, I didn't realize this.

00:26:40.000 It perhaps could have been hypoxia caused by drugs.

00:26:43.000 What an interesting article.

00:26:44.000 And then every other person sees the headline, Derek Chauvin violated policy kneeling on the neck.

00:26:49.000 And they're like, what are you talking about?

00:26:51.000 So you guys remember like the, the golden blue dress or whatever, or like Manny and Laurel.

00:26:57.000 They're creating this because someone's going to have like a cash diversion on their, they're going to have a cash diversion from the article.

00:27:03.000 Oh wow.

00:27:04.000 It's a form of negligence, at least.

00:27:05.000 And they're going to be like, it literally says hypoxia potentially from drug use. 0.98

00:27:08.000 And the other person's like, are you nuts? 1.00

00:27:10.000 It says Chauvin, Neil Innocent can kill them. 1.00

00:27:11.000 What are you talking about? 0.95

00:27:12.000 I'm looking at the article right now.

00:27:13.000 Oh my gosh.

00:27:14.000 It's like they're intentionally making people insane.

00:27:16.000 I don't mean literally.

00:27:18.000 I'm just saying these articles and the way the system is designed, it's making

00:27:22.000 people hate each other and go nuts.

00:27:23.000 It's a form of negligence at least like journalistic negligence.

00:27:26.000 Definitely.

00:27:27.000 Oh yeah.

00:27:27.000 So now my, I'm just saying, I think we're getting to the point where, you know,

00:27:32.000 we'll get close to the end of the trial.

00:27:34.000 And if people only hear these headlines about the bad things about Chauvin, only hearing from the prosecution, they're going to be like, this guy's going to prison.

00:27:43.000 And then they're going to say, acquitted on all charges.

00:27:45.000 And they go, how is that possible?

00:27:46.000 I was reading the news about the trial.

00:27:49.000 It was bad for him.

00:27:50.000 Oh, the system is corrupt.

00:27:52.000 Right.

00:27:54.000 Definitely.

00:27:54.000 I mean, I think we can agree there that there will probably be riots.

00:27:58.000 I think at this point in the present epoch, you can just always assume that every major story is going to end with riots.

00:28:03.000 Doesn't matter.

00:28:04.000 That's my prediction for the future.

00:28:05.000 There will be riots.

00:28:06.000 I don't know what's happening, but the riots will occur as a result.

00:28:08.000 Chauvin acquitted?

00:28:10.000 Riots.

00:28:11.000 Convicted.

00:28:14.000 Riots.

00:28:15.000 Riots because it wasn't charged with first-degree murder or death penalty.

00:28:18.000 Chauvin gets... The space-time continuum rips asunder in the middle of the courtroom and Chauvin gets sucked into an altered reality and never to be seen again.

00:28:26.000 Riots.

00:28:26.000 Interdimensional riots.

00:28:30.000 So right now what's happening is like a bunch of Antifa are in a room and they're sitting there and the doors closed and there's like one Antifa and he's looking at his watch and he's got his hand up and then they're all like getting jitters like ready to start and then it's like okay the news came in and it's and they just burst the door right I felt like I was in DC last year, like November.

00:28:58.000 There was like a March or something I went to.

00:29:00.000 And at the end of the night, I was down there and you could see, I don't know if they were in Antifa or whatever, a bunch of people wearing all black, just like standing around.

00:29:06.000 We talked about that.

00:29:07.000 Zombies before the night, before the blood moon.

00:29:10.000 NPCs before the script activates and they storm in to like, you know, play the game or whatever.

00:29:15.000 You like clip through the wall and you see them all like just waiting, waiting.

00:29:18.000 It was so disturbing.

00:29:19.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:29:19.000 I'm sure most... Sitting on ledges and stuff.

00:29:22.000 We brought this up at the time, but I'm sure most people are familiar with video games.

00:29:25.000 So when there's a boss battle, and let's say the boss bursts through the door and he's like, ROAR!

00:29:29.000 Who has woken me?

00:29:31.000 What's actually happening outside of that room is the character is standing there, waiting for a script to activate to start the VO line and the graphics.

00:29:39.000 So they're just in a T-pose or whatever, just sitting there.

00:29:42.000 And if you can go outside the walls, you'll see all the NPCs just frozen or in a T-pose.

00:29:46.000 Well, it's frightening, because T-posing builds testosterone.

00:29:49.000 So if Antifa's T-pose That would be a hilarious skit. 1.00

00:29:51.000 We should do that.

00:29:51.000 We should hire a bunch of anti-vote people to stand in a T-pose outside of a protest.

00:29:54.000 Just not saying anything or moving.

00:29:54.000 They're gonna be stronger than ever before.

00:29:56.000 That would be a hilarious skit. 0.98

00:29:57.000 We should do that.

00:29:58.000 We should hire a bunch of anti-vote people to stand in a T-post outside of a protest. 0.63

00:30:02.000 Just not saying anything or moving.

00:30:04.000 Await orders. 0.99

00:30:05.000 No, just like, just not say anything.

00:30:08.000 And then finally, when something happens, they all start walking and they go, Oh, fascism.

00:30:12.000 Oh, it's so bad.

00:30:13.000 Oh, we hate it.

00:30:14.000 Oh, man.

00:30:15.000 People will be like, what just happened?

00:30:16.000 And like, oh, the main character.

00:30:18.000 He entered.

00:30:18.000 He just spawned.

00:30:21.000 Yeah.

00:30:22.000 Everybody walks back to the same spot and then puts in the T-pose again.

00:30:25.000 Getting ready for the next riot.

00:30:27.000 Yes.

00:30:28.000 Yeah, man.

00:30:28.000 I hate to say it, but I hate to say that we're getting comfortable that there might be riots in the United States.

00:30:37.000 I'm not comfortable, but I'm accepting of it like there probably will be riots.

00:30:40.000 That's crazy.

00:30:42.000 I've never in my past been like, well, if global riots break out, well, whatever.

00:30:46.000 It was always like, there shouldn't be riots.

00:30:49.000 Listen, listen, we're entering this political cycle where, like, we're gonna be old and have kids, and, you know, it's gonna be like, oh, it's 4 o'clock, kids, everybody come inside, the riots are coming, and the news is like, the riot will be arriving today at 4.10, a few minutes late, and they just, like, rampage through town.

00:31:08.000 It's like water.

00:31:09.000 Yeah, exactly, exactly.

00:31:10.000 The riot mania, the meteorologists.

00:31:12.000 Yeah, it said well, it said how many horrible things we've just become jaded towards like first it happened with with public shootings and massacres and and now it's with Becoming the case with riots where we're just there was just you see this video Where the Antifa guy is trying to climb the Chase Bank.

00:31:27.000 Yeah what?

00:31:29.000 That was rough.

00:31:30.000 He hit the ground.

00:31:32.000 Can you play that?

00:31:32.000 Are you gonna play it?

00:31:33.000 I'll search for it.

00:31:34.000 He hit the ground and then all of a sudden he started to bleed.

00:31:37.000 I put in air quotes.

00:31:39.000 It's black paint, but it looks like blood oozing up from his body.

00:31:45.000 He was gonna vandalize this building with black paint and he fell and he landed on his hip and the paint starts dripping out.

00:31:50.000 I was like, oh, it looks like oil or something.

00:31:52.000 Like he's a robot at first.

00:31:55.000 Then this girl's like, he's like, this guy comes up and he's like, what happened?

00:31:58.000 Where did he fall from?

00:31:59.000 She was like, he landed on his hip.

00:32:00.000 He was like, he fell from his hip.

00:32:02.000 She was like, he landed.

00:32:03.000 Nevermind.

00:32:04.000 She didn't want to say.

00:32:04.000 She didn't want to tell him.

00:32:05.000 So we have this from Andy No.

00:32:08.000 Andy No tweets at a far left anti-capitalism protest today at Chase Bank in Manhattan.

00:32:13.000 A masked protester falls after attempting to climb the building.

00:32:16.000 The black paint he was carrying is spilled all over the ground.

00:32:19.000 So I'm not going to show the actual, because YouTube doesn't want us to, but I'll show you him climbing.

00:32:23.000 Because apparently that's okay.

00:32:24.000 And then there's people yelling at him, get down!

00:32:26.000 He's not that high, I'm sorry.

00:32:28.000 He's like 8 feet up?

00:32:29.000 Yeah, he's like 8 feet up.

00:32:32.000 And then he tries to grab onto the awning, falls down, his paint splatters.

00:32:38.000 Here's my favorite part.

00:32:40.000 Call 911! 0.56

00:32:41.000 Immediately.

00:32:42.000 Isn't it funny?

00:32:43.000 You know what I thought about this?

00:32:44.000 Check it out.

00:32:45.000 The guy slams the ground.

00:32:46.000 Why not a social worker?

00:32:47.000 No, no, no, here's what I love.

00:32:48.000 But yes, yes, yes.

00:32:49.000 What I love about this is, imagine it's like 1870, and a guy is climbing the front of a

00:32:54.000 bank and he's like, done with capitalism, and then he falls and hits his pelvis.

00:32:58.000 Do you know what the people around him would do?

00:33:02.000 Yeah.

00:33:03.000 Call for help!

00:33:03.000 They just leave.

00:33:06.000 My hip is broken!

00:33:07.000 Call the sheriff!

00:33:08.000 No one's gonna do anything.

00:33:09.000 They're gonna walk away from him.

00:33:11.000 It's amazing that we're in today's day and age and it's so pampered that these LARPers are like, I'm gonna climb the Chase Manhattan. 0.98

00:33:19.000 It was like the Chase Manhattan security guard.

00:33:22.000 I can't confirm that he worked for Chase, but it was the same guy.

00:33:24.000 It looked like a security guard for the building was like, we've called the ambulance.

00:33:27.000 Don't worry.

00:33:28.000 It's like the dude was just about to vandalize your building.

00:33:32.000 You know what, man?

00:33:33.000 See, we're so tolerant and accepting of this behavior.

00:33:37.000 I get it.

00:33:37.000 What are we supposed to do?

00:33:38.000 We can't just leave someone there.

00:33:40.000 But I'll tell you this.

00:33:41.000 When I saw that, I'm sorry.

00:33:42.000 I'm gonna say it.

00:33:43.000 I laughed a hearty laugh.

00:33:44.000 You know why?

00:33:46.000 Because I've fallen from higher, and I watched Jake Brown fall from two stories at the X Games.

00:33:51.000 Oh, wow.

00:33:52.000 Slam onto his hip, get up, and walk out waving while everyone cheered for him.

00:33:56.000 So, like, so for those of you who aren't familiar with what happened there, that's, it was in the 2007, I think it was, or maybe 2006 X Games.

00:34:02.000 Jake Brown's on the mega ramp.

00:34:04.000 It's like a hundred feet high drop-in.

00:34:06.000 Then he launches like 70 feet.

00:34:08.000 Then he goes up a 20-foot vert wall.

00:34:10.000 He's like 48 feet in the air.

00:34:12.000 He loses control and slams into the deck.

00:34:15.000 His shoes fly like 50 to 100 feet, just crazy.

00:34:19.000 And everyone thought he was dead.

00:34:20.000 I watched it live, and we were just like, oh my god.

00:34:24.000 And then they walk over to him, they check out his neck and everything, they lift him up, and then he limps out waving to the crowd.

00:34:32.000 This Antifa guy falls 8 feet, and he's going, Oh, they're like, what's wrong?

00:34:37.000 My hip.

00:34:38.000 He's frail.

00:34:38.000 Okay.

00:34:39.000 He's frail.

00:34:40.000 You need to drink more milk.

00:34:41.000 Yeah.

00:34:42.000 Yeah.

00:34:42.000 Well, it's, it's, there's this weird thing where people have survived falls from extreme heights, but then some people will fall like literally five or six feet and they'll, they'll sever, sever their spine and die.

00:34:53.000 Like it's happened.

00:34:53.000 It's really horrible and scary.

00:34:55.000 Um, my friend, I was in the military and he was telling me about someone in his unit who was a paratrooper and his parachute did not open when he jumped out of the plane and his backup didn't open.

00:35:05.000 And he landed and he survived.

00:35:07.000 He basically shattered all of his bones.

00:35:09.000 But yeah, he survived the fall, which is insane.

00:35:12.000 Yeah, apparently there's like techniques you can do.

00:35:14.000 I guess they say aim for trees.

00:35:15.000 Yeah, the way you land.

00:35:16.000 Let me tell y'all a story.

00:35:21.000 Let's talk about some skateboarding.

00:35:22.000 See, I was like 16 and I was skating at a skate park and there was this... We'll just call it a box.

00:35:28.000 It was like five feet high, five feet off the ground.

00:35:32.000 And then from the top of it, there was a gap over another ramp, which is about five feet.

00:35:37.000 I spent about an hour, I'm 16, I'm trying to do what's called a backside 180

00:35:41.000 over this five foot high, five foot long gap to the ground.

00:35:44.000 Backside is when you're spinning and you can't see where you're going

00:35:47.000 because you're looking behind you.

00:35:49.000 I think I fell like 30 times.

00:35:51.000 And every time I would hit the ground, I'd slip out or I'd roll.

00:35:54.000 And then finally I landed, rolled away all clean and everyone's like, oh, and they're all cheering for me.

00:35:58.000 And then literally like a minute after that, some like seven year old kid was jumping up and down and frolicking with his mom, slipped on the ground in front of the ramp and broke his ankle.

00:36:08.000 And that's when I was like, man, that weird.

00:36:10.000 It's crazy how like I can jump off this on purpose.

00:36:13.000 For like 30, you know, 30 tries.

00:36:15.000 And each time I fall, hit the ground, I just bounce and roll away and get up and I'm like, I want to try it again.

00:36:18.000 Well, it's such a strange thing.

00:36:21.000 Like there, so my brothers were both in a car accident probably about 10 years ago now on the highway while they were doing 80.

00:36:27.000 And the car was like completely totaled and they had their seatbelts on and thank God they survived.

00:36:31.000 There are people who end up like permanently brain damaged after a literal fender bender.

00:36:35.000 It's just, it's crazy.

00:36:36.000 You never know.

00:36:37.000 Yeah, dude.

00:36:38.000 It's legit.

00:36:39.000 Yeah, some people, like, will bang their head just a little bit on, like, the window and then it's just, like, causes damage.

00:36:44.000 But, uh, are we basically saying that this Antifa guy has been severely injured and we must, you know... I have no idea.

00:36:51.000 Maybe he got really hurt?

00:36:52.000 I don't know.

00:36:52.000 I didn't see the video.

00:36:54.000 Did not want EMS or anything.

00:36:56.000 I was like that that vandal deserves to lay there in pain But that was like a mean part of me.

00:37:01.000 I don't know the way you want to take care of your enemies as well like the We you know in in the movie the Patriot with Mel Gibson He tends to both sides after the battle and then the British, you know Because they're evil and they always will be the right counts exactly basically, you know burn his house down because they did it and I'm kidding about the Brits. 0.97

00:37:21.000 You've evolved.

00:37:22.000 See, we know you hate the Brits.

00:37:23.000 Apparently, there's a big controversy, I guess, because in that movie, they depict the British as, like, really brutal.

00:37:30.000 Way over the top.

00:37:31.000 They, like, make them Nazis. 0.80

00:37:33.000 Yeah, no, for real. 0.99

00:37:33.000 He kills his kid. 0.99

00:37:35.000 He's like, you tended to the wounded. 1.00

00:37:37.000 Kill his son. 0.99

00:37:38.000 No Gifts is great at propaganda. 1.00

00:37:42.000 It was such American propaganda, that movie.

00:37:47.000 The truth is, the British Empire had power, and they were basically the state, and telling the Americans who were like, yo, leave us alone, what to do, and so conflict breaks out.

00:37:57.000 But anyway, what are we talking about?

00:38:03.000 So actually I'm conflicted on this too, because there's a difference between like understanding there's a conflict in a war and these people who keep doing this stuff.

00:38:11.000 They don't stop.

00:38:12.000 And what happens is they set fires, they break things, they don't get arrested.

00:38:16.000 In fact, we render aid to them.

00:38:18.000 Yeah.

00:38:18.000 And so I understand.

00:38:19.000 I would never let a person just sit there if they were truly injured.

00:38:23.000 I'd call the medical team.

00:38:24.000 I'm just pointing out the difficulty here and how do you stop someone from doing something dumb like trying to climb, chase while they're screaming, get down.

00:38:31.000 And then he gets hurt and we're like, who all saw that coming?

00:38:34.000 Yeah.

00:38:34.000 Well, that's the thing.

00:38:35.000 I mean, treat them, but they should face the full consequences that are due to them legally.

00:38:41.000 We should be arresting these people, of course.

00:38:42.000 Don't let anything off the hook.

00:38:43.000 Yeah, but it's the prosecutors. 0.99

00:38:45.000 And I'll tell you this, man.

00:38:46.000 We've had a bunch of conversations in the past couple of weeks where I've been like, tax the rich!

00:38:51.000 Not literally, but I'm just saying, stop billionaires from influencing politics.

00:38:54.000 And I get a lot of pushback, you know, like, I get pushback from, you know, Jack Murphy, Michael Malice, and they didn't agree with me on that one.

00:39:01.000 But my issue is, these district attorneys, they're getting put in office through the money of these ultra-wealthy Progressive billionaire types.

00:39:09.000 Not all of our progressives.

00:39:10.000 I don't agree with any one of these billionaires just flooding the zone with money and shutting up the opinions of the actual people who live there.

00:39:16.000 But when people are just swept up with hundreds of millions of dollars in propaganda, these DAs get elected. 0.85

00:39:22.000 We know that, you know, George Soros, for instance, was donating a lot to a lot of the district attorneys.

00:39:26.000 That's just a conspiracy theory, Tim.

00:39:28.000 I don't know why you would ever say George Soros' name.

00:39:30.000 I want everyone to know that I like having a YouTube channel and I denounce Tim right now.

00:39:33.000 It's horrible.

00:39:34.000 Don't say anything about George Soros.

00:39:36.000 Well, I'll tell you this.

00:39:37.000 It was the Mercers, the Koch brothers.

00:39:39.000 It's George Soros.

00:39:40.000 It's Bezos.

00:39:41.000 It's...

00:39:42.000 Mackenzie Bezos, it is Tom Steyer, Michael Bloomberg.

00:39:45.000 All of these ultra-wealthy people dump money into politics, and one of the big things we saw was that, I believe, this is really funny, like Fox News, I think Newt Gingrich was on, and he was like, you know, George Soros' foundation was helping to get these district attorneys elected.

00:39:59.000 And then Fox was like, we don't say that around here.

00:40:02.000 And then people were like, that's a fact.

00:40:04.000 That's so funny to me.

00:40:05.000 Apparently you can't even say the guy's name anymore?

00:40:07.000 That's creepy.

00:40:07.000 Look, the point is, I don't like the billionaires.

00:40:09.000 The millionaires and the billionaires doing this.

00:40:11.000 Because then listen, these people do dumb things, they get arrested, and the newly elected DA who's very progressive goes, you're free to go.

00:40:17.000 No charges. 0.96

00:40:19.000 It's crazy.

00:40:20.000 There should be some oversight.

00:40:21.000 You can't name Soros.

00:40:22.000 If I had only read one single book in my entire life, I might compare him to Voldemort.

00:40:28.000 He was self-made, right?

00:40:30.000 George Soros?

00:40:30.000 Didn't he come from a lowly... The left, apparently, the only book they've ever read are Harry Potter.

00:40:36.000 Here's the thing, all they ever reference are Harry Potter and The Handmaid's Tale, both of which are movies or exist in visual media.

00:40:43.000 So it's like, I know you didn't even read them.

00:40:46.000 The only literature they quote exists on television.

00:40:49.000 Did you guys ever read Dune?

00:40:51.000 No.

00:40:51.000 You got to read it aren't they making it was that one's that new movie coming out?

00:40:54.000 It's been they made a movie with with sting in the early 80s And I saw that one they made a made-for-tv movies with

00:41:00.000 William Hurt. It was way better weird Yeah, the movie with the David Lynch movie was a little off.

00:41:04.000 Oh, yeah, you told us to watch it Didn't you not the day will watch it for weirdness, but the

00:41:08.000 made-for-tv movie is way better, but the book the book I heard the book was good, yeah.

00:41:12.000 Yeah, that was why I was about it's basically this kid this this this this

00:41:17.000 This king and his son his family or have to flee the planet and they go are they leave the planet and they go to?

00:41:22.000 This new planet. That's a desert planet where that to harvest the spice. There's just like this galactic

00:41:27.000 spice trade trade item and There's like conflict over the over the spice the political

00:41:33.000 conflict I thought there's something like an Analogous to you know antifa.

00:41:37.000 No, it's just such a great book that all these I guess you call them like this Harry Potter's great Dune read Dune.

00:41:43.000 It is political.

00:41:44.000 Maybe there's something to it.

00:41:45.000 These people just don't read books man Well, this is my favorite thing.

00:41:48.000 I saw this meme a while ago and it was like comparing Trump and Harry Potter instead. 0.88

00:41:52.000 Just like troll lefties.

00:41:53.000 It was very funny, but it was like favorably comparing Trump to Harry Potter and people were spreading it around. 0.91

00:41:57.000 I thought that was hilarious.

00:41:58.000 So who in that context, who's Voldemort?

00:42:01.000 Probably Hillary. 1.00

00:42:02.000 Probably maybe Soros.

00:42:03.000 I don't know.

00:42:05.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:42:06.000 I'm not into Harry Potter.

00:42:07.000 What are we talking about?

00:42:09.000 I love how, like, at this protest, they're holding up a big banner that says Solidarity.

00:42:14.000 And I'm like, what is that?

00:42:15.000 What protest?

00:42:16.000 At the one where the guy climbs the wall and then falls and hurts himself.

00:42:19.000 Oh my gosh.

00:42:19.000 They're, like, holding up a big banner that says Solidarity.

00:42:21.000 And I'm like, do people, like, know what you're talking about?

00:42:24.000 For real, the banking establishes a problem, but painting black stuff on their windows isn't... That's gonna show them.

00:42:31.000 That'll stop it.

00:42:31.000 That won't get the cops to come out and crack down.

00:42:34.000 No, I can just imagine, you know, the CEO, Jamie Dimon sitting in the, I don't know if he's still

00:42:38.000 CEO or whatever, probably. And then he looks, he looks on the TV, he looks out from the 100th

00:42:43.000 floor of whatever building he's in and he sees tiny little dots and he goes, what are they doing?

00:42:48.000 Is that, is that black paint on my window?

00:42:52.000 What have I done?

00:42:53.000 And then he goes, oh, push the button.

00:42:56.000 And he hits a button, and the building is electrically charged.

00:42:59.000 And the guy's electrocuted and falls off the building, and everyone just thinks he slipped.

00:43:02.000 That's what happened.

00:43:03.000 Oh my gosh.

00:43:03.000 That explains everything.

00:43:05.000 I love it.

00:43:08.000 Like when that when when the guy tells the story about what happened, it's very dramatic He's like in his all my muscles seized up at once in his version of it.

00:43:14.000 He's super ripped.

00:43:15.000 He's like It's like a hundred feet in the air and then Jamie Dimon punched him in the face.

00:43:21.000 You'll pay for this All right, there are better ways to protest the banks keep that in mind guys I Yeah, I've always maintained that damaging a window does nothing to anybody, but the people have to clean it.

00:43:38.000 Do you guys see this guy suing the Federal Reserve?

00:43:40.000 Have you guys looked into that?

00:43:41.000 I think he's going to win, Ian.

00:43:42.000 I think he might.

00:43:43.000 I think he might have a chance.

00:43:46.000 He's going to sue them for everything they have, and they're just going to keep printing and printing and printing, and he's going to be the wealthiest person who ever lived.

00:43:53.000 Did you guys see Ryan Long's Not Antifa window repair?

00:43:56.000 Yes, that was hysterical.

00:43:58.000 That was so good.

00:43:59.000 So they have shirts that say, not Antifa window repair.

00:44:04.000 And he's like, we figured out a way to maximize profits while we're protesting.

00:44:09.000 And they have Antifa shirts and they take them off and it's like, not Antifa window repair.

00:44:12.000 And he's like, basically we go out, organize these protests.

00:44:15.000 So everyone smashes the windows and then we're right there to pick up the business.

00:44:20.000 And then they actually went into bodegas and talked to them, like, we'll fix your windows if they get smashed out.

00:44:25.000 Yeah, good stuff.

00:44:27.000 Good comedy.

00:44:28.000 Good Ryan Long comedy.

00:44:31.000 He's a genius, man.

00:44:32.000 Alright, well, have we talked about Antifa falling?

00:44:34.000 I think we have.

00:44:36.000 Let's talk about the Section 230 stuff, man.

00:44:39.000 The first thing I want to do is I want to lead with this.

00:44:42.000 81m.org.

00:44:43.000 Have you guys seen this?

00:44:44.000 Have you heard about this?

00:44:45.000 Have you seen this?

00:44:45.000 No.

00:44:46.000 81M?

00:44:46.000 81M.org.

00:44:46.000 I don't know.

00:44:49.000 Tracking the White House YouTube channel.

00:44:51.000 Oh, yes.

00:44:52.000 We were talking about this.

00:44:53.000 This is a great story.

00:44:55.000 And it's not shocking at all.

00:44:56.000 I mean, it's crazy.

00:44:58.000 So check this out.

00:44:58.000 If you go to 81M.org, they say that they're analyzing the real like to dislike ratio versus what's displayed on the White House channel.

00:45:07.000 So you'll look right here.

00:45:08.000 Check this out.

00:45:09.000 On April 5th, 14,570 views.

00:45:13.000 The video is titled, President Biden Delivers Remarks on the Tradition of Easter at the White House.

00:45:18.000 You can see the official approval rate, according to YouTube, is 12.58%.

00:45:21.000 It's got 1,599 dislikes.

00:45:22.000 It's got 1,599 dislikes.

00:45:26.000 The real approval rate is only 4.76% because it has 4,606 dislikes.

00:45:33.000 This is every single video.

00:45:36.000 You can see that they're deleting dislikes, not nearly enough.

00:45:40.000 Okay, in this one, it's not very, it's not much different.

00:45:43.000 Some of them are fairly dramatic, like this is a thousand dislikes, and there's four thousand.

00:45:46.000 This one's got twenty thousand dislikes, and YouTube claims it only has seven thousand.

00:45:50.000 Now, when I first saw this, I thought to myself, how do I know this is true?

00:45:53.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:45:54.000 Maybe they're just lying.

00:45:55.000 Yeah.

00:45:55.000 They could be lying.

00:45:56.000 Could just be liars. 0.98

00:45:57.000 Could be liars. 1.00

00:45:57.000 Dirty. 1.00

00:45:58.000 That's the story. 1.00

00:45:58.000 Pants on fire liars. 1.00

00:46:00.000 But they also include an additional metric to compare using the same data.

00:46:04.000 At the end, they say, trust me, bro.

00:46:06.000 So I'm pretty sure they're telling the truth.

00:46:07.000 And come on, man.

00:46:08.000 Yeah, come on, man.

00:46:09.000 Come on, man.

00:46:10.000 I'm like, well, I don't know.

00:46:11.000 He's got a point.

00:46:12.000 That sounds like Biden.

00:46:13.000 They track PewDiePie.

00:46:15.000 When you look at PewDiePie's like to dislike ratio, it's almost identical across the board.

00:46:19.000 There are some disparities.

00:46:20.000 But that's because YouTube does legitimately get rid of spam dislikes from, you know, bot farms and things like that.

00:46:26.000 PewDiePie is overwhelmingly, his numbers are accurate.

00:46:29.000 So when you look at a massive channel like his, then you look at the White House, it's very strange.

00:46:34.000 Now, again, I'll say it.

00:46:35.000 It's possible the people behind 81M are just, like, giving us bunk numbers and then claiming that they're right there.

00:46:41.000 QAnon Trump supporters.

00:46:42.000 Yeah, far right!

00:46:44.000 Is it 81M.org?

00:46:46.000 Yeah, 81M.org.

00:46:47.000 That's possible.

00:46:49.000 Yeah, maybe they're just lying, but we know for a fact that YouTube has already stated in the past they do remove likes from the White House YouTube channel.

00:46:57.000 Dislikes?

00:46:58.000 Dislikes, sorry.

00:46:59.000 And they announced that they may get rid of the dislike feature.

00:47:04.000 I heard about this.

00:47:04.000 For people's health.

00:47:05.000 I like that.

00:47:05.000 I hope so, because it's bad for my health when I get a dislike on one of my videos.

00:47:09.000 I wish YouTube would come through and delete some of those.

00:47:11.000 But you can still see them, it's just other people can't.

00:47:12.000 Oh.

00:47:13.000 That's not good.

00:47:14.000 That's not gonna help my health.

00:47:15.000 What does that do for me?

00:47:16.000 Didn't they change it to say, not for me, instead of a down vote?

00:47:19.000 I did see that.

00:47:19.000 And you're like, this kind of video is not for me.

00:47:21.000 And then the algorithm tries to feed you less videos like that.

00:47:25.000 I saw a screenshot of a Steven Crowder video that said, not for me, instead of dislike.

00:47:30.000 Huh.

00:47:31.000 I never disliked.

00:47:32.000 Since 2007, I kind of made like a personal choice to never do that to someone.

00:47:36.000 I either like it or not.

00:47:38.000 If I don't like it, I don't say anything.

00:47:39.000 I actually think they should get rid of dislikes.

00:47:42.000 Really?

00:47:43.000 Likes and dislikes?

00:47:44.000 Dislikes absolutely do hurt channels.

00:47:48.000 They make sure that other people can't see the content.

00:47:51.000 So what happens is, because Crowder brought this up, that they'll put out a video where it's like, Joe Biden says, you know, X. And people will go, I can't believe Joe Biden said that.

00:47:58.000 Dislike.

00:48:00.000 And then he's like, no, don't dislike us!

00:48:02.000 Dislike, we agree with you!

00:48:03.000 Like, we like what we're saying!

00:48:04.000 Maybe it's possible to adjust the algorithm so that disliking the video doesn't result in fewer people viewing it, but the audience is still able to know what the general consensus on the video is.

00:48:13.000 I mean, you can have, like, Facebook has little emojis, so you can have the anger emoji, the heart emoji, the thumbs up emoji.

00:48:20.000 Make it more complicated.

00:48:21.000 And they kind of show, like, did it make you angry?

00:48:23.000 Did it make you happy?

00:48:24.000 Did it make you laugh?

00:48:25.000 So they could use that algorithm.

00:48:27.000 I've got a really good idea.

00:48:28.000 I think this is the future for YouTube.

00:48:29.000 They have five stars, and you can give the video a ranking of zero all the way at the beginning, or five stars, and each video will be somewhere along the spectrum.

00:48:38.000 Why didn't anyone ever try?

00:48:39.000 Why didn't anyone ever do that?

00:48:40.000 It would have been great.

00:48:42.000 They should have been doing that since the beginning.

00:48:43.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:48:44.000 Like, right when they started, they should have had that system.

00:48:46.000 Like, before Google bought them.

00:48:47.000 I'm just a genius.

00:48:48.000 Yeah.

00:48:48.000 When did that change?

00:48:49.000 Why did they get rid of that?

00:48:50.000 I have no idea.

00:48:52.000 Honestly, I do think a like-dislike thing is more accurate than a star system, though, because someone could be like, I like this, but what someone considers four- or five-star content is gonna vary wildly between people.

00:49:05.000 Two people can like something equally as much, but one person's like, this is five stars, and the other person's like, Three and a half.

00:49:11.000 I saw a Yelp review once where it was like the restaurant got a three star rating out of five from someone and they were like, this is one of the best restaurants I've ever been to.

00:49:19.000 Absolutely great.

00:49:19.000 Three out of five.

00:49:20.000 And then the owner was like, would you mind giving us more stars if you really liked it that much?

00:49:24.000 But it's because the person thought three out of five was like really good.

00:49:28.000 Four was like, wow.

00:49:29.000 And five was too perfect to exist.

00:49:31.000 So, um, I found, I was on a trip and I booked my own hotel, unfortunately, without reading the reviews.

00:49:37.000 And then when I got there, I was like, this place is a little sketchy.

00:49:39.000 Why don't I check out the reviews?

00:49:40.000 So I went to the reviews and it was so horrifically bad.

00:49:45.000 I was like, I'm going to go.

00:49:46.000 I'm just going to look at the worst first, just to see if this place is dangerous.

00:49:49.000 It was very dangerous.

00:49:50.000 One of the reviews was like, someone was killed here the night I was staying here.

00:49:52.000 The next day, I'm not kidding, the next day someone was shot in the parking lot.

00:49:55.000 I was like, okay.

00:49:56.000 And then one of the reviews said, it was like listing all these things that were wrong with the room.

00:50:00.000 And it was like, and I found a crack pipe under the sink.

00:50:03.000 Free crack pipe?

00:50:04.000 Yes.

00:50:05.000 Complimentary.

00:50:06.000 I was fine with a mint on the pillow, but apparently a crack pipe under the sink is the new thing.

00:50:11.000 And the response from the hotel was, thank you for staying at Blank Inn.

00:50:17.000 I was crying, dude.

00:50:18.000 I have to send the screenshots to you.

00:50:20.000 Because I was at this hotel and I was horrified, but I was also laughing really hard at these reviews.

00:50:23.000 I was like, ah, I have to leave.

00:50:25.000 Where was it?

00:50:25.000 Like, right now.

00:50:27.000 This was in Georgia.

00:50:29.000 Wow.

00:50:29.000 Yeah.

00:50:29.000 Bad neighborhood.

00:50:30.000 Yeah, it was in a bad part of town.

00:50:33.000 Should've read the reviews.

00:50:34.000 I looked at the reviews.

00:50:35.000 Well, here's the thing.

00:50:36.000 I so foolishly, I booked it very quickly because I was in kind of a rush.

00:50:38.000 Mistake.

00:50:39.000 But it said on the website's page, most people who come here return later.

00:50:44.000 So I was like, oh, it must be a nice place.

00:50:47.000 Well, it turns out people who like go to hotels to do like drug deals and other nefarious things will like go to the same hotel a bunch of times.

00:50:53.000 Hey, this place worked.

00:50:54.000 Come back.

00:50:55.000 Sorting reviews by likes or sorting them by dislikes.

00:50:58.000 So you can see like all the dislikes first.

00:51:00.000 I also like sorting by recent.

00:51:02.000 So you can be like, what happened yesterday?

00:51:04.000 And the nice thing about Steam, for instance... Because like someone gets killed at the hotel two days in a row once, and all of a sudden people don't like the place forever.

00:51:09.000 That's a lot bigger of a deal than three years ago.

00:51:12.000 Oh, Steam lets you see how many hours someone has played a video game before they rate it.

00:51:16.000 So you can kind of get some perspective.

00:51:18.000 So if you knew more about the person that was giving the rating, you might be able to tell.

00:51:21.000 But then, I mean, that's more of a complex algorithm.

00:51:23.000 It's funny because I was searching for other hotels and I found this place and I was like, I'm going to look at the negative reviews first just to see.

00:51:29.000 And the worst review was like, the attendant was very rude to me.

00:51:32.000 I was like, I'm staying here.

00:51:33.000 This is great.

00:51:35.000 The main issue with like the YouTube dislike thing is that first and foremost, the White House is an official channel that produces content, not as a career, but because they're the White House.

00:51:47.000 So they put out updates.

00:51:48.000 So everyone sma- Jill Biden at the end of his press conference has to be like, smash that like button!

00:51:53.000 He should be saying that.

00:51:54.000 Like, share, and subscribe to the channel!

00:51:59.000 Thanks for watching, YouTube!

00:52:01.000 Could you imagine if he's at a press conference again and he's talking to the press corps and he's like, now for all you journalists!

00:52:08.000 Sit in here, you know, we're on YouTube.

00:52:10.000 So I'm gonna give a shout out to everybody smash that like button.

00:52:13.000 Don't forget to hit that notification bell and subscribe We're really close to breaking 1 million subscribers.

00:52:17.000 So come on, man.

00:52:18.000 Become a subscriber.

00:52:18.000 Is he holding up his play button?

00:52:22.000 Kimmel does it for his show.

00:52:23.000 So maybe they should start.

00:52:25.000 At the end there's like an insert clip where he's like, thanks for watching our YouTube channel.

00:52:28.000 Just be sure to He should do that.

00:52:31.000 Biden should do that.

00:52:32.000 I would actually give him a thumbs up if he did.

00:52:35.000 I would too.

00:52:36.000 I have to.

00:52:37.000 It's Joe Biden for sure.

00:52:39.000 100%.

00:52:41.000 I'm like, alright, I admire the hustle and I've been in his position so I get it.

00:52:44.000 He's like plugging the federal government's now running on Patreon.

00:52:49.000 It's got 328.2 million patrons.

00:52:52.000 No, dude, it's like half that.

00:52:53.000 It's like, if you make this much money, you must subscribe for this tier to make this much money.

00:52:58.000 And it was like, and then in big bold letters, if you don't subscribe, we'll come and arrest you at gunpoint.

00:53:04.000 That's how patrons should work, right?

00:53:06.000 So listen, here's the issue I have with the dislike button.

00:53:10.000 Yes.

00:53:11.000 Yes.

00:53:11.000 Let's say somebody likes political commentary and they like subject matter about whatever.

00:53:16.000 When they give a dislike, they actually like this kind of content.

00:53:19.000 They actually like this subject, but they disagree with something in it.

00:53:23.000 Maybe it's the opinion of the person in an article.

00:53:26.000 Maybe it's the opinion of the host, but they do typically enjoy this kind of content.

00:53:30.000 The dislike in that regard doesn't work because then it results in fewer people seeing content

00:53:34.000 they would actually enjoy.

00:53:35.000 So ultimately what I'm saying is, if I make a video where I'm like, I think the government

00:53:40.000 should bring back government cheese or whatever, people are going to be like, bad opinion,

00:53:44.000 X.

00:53:45.000 And then what YouTube hears is not, I dislike this opinion.

00:53:49.000 YouTube hears this video is a bad video.

00:53:52.000 So then there may be people who actually agree with that opinion and they won't be served the content.

00:53:56.000 YouTube is effectively creating political silos where they force people into one or the other bubble because if you capture a liberal audience and you say, liberal opinion!

00:54:06.000 All the liberals give you a thumbs up.

00:54:08.000 So then YouTube's like, share it with more people!

00:54:10.000 Yeah.

00:54:10.000 If you say conservative opinion and liberals give it a thumbs down, they stop showing it to anybody.

00:54:15.000 Then what happens is these people are forced to choose whichever bubble that YouTube sorts them to.

00:54:20.000 It's almost like, you ever see that thing where they have the conveyor belt with all the little baby chickens on it?

00:54:23.000 And then they're like picking them up and looking at them and throwing the males into the meat grinder? 1.00

00:54:26.000 Yes!

00:54:27.000 Yeah, very rude.

00:54:28.000 It's basically like what it is.

00:54:29.000 It's how it feels, getting a dislike.

00:54:31.000 Every single one.

00:54:32.000 That's not what I mean.

00:54:33.000 What I mean is, you start a new channel, right?

00:54:37.000 Start a brand new channel.

00:54:38.000 And say, my opinion on immigration.

00:54:41.000 Whichever person that YouTube randomly suggests that video to, assuming they do, if their opinion is liberal, and they give you a thumbs up, then YouTube's gonna start growing your channel.

00:54:51.000 If they send it to a conservative, and your opinion is liberal, your channel's crushed.

00:54:55.000 In addition to that, like you said, you'll make a video, you'll say, these people got murdered and tortured, and the person will be like, thank you so much for making this video and telling me about it.

00:55:03.000 That's horrible that they got murdered.

00:55:05.000 Thumbs down.

00:55:07.000 That's what I was saying with Crowder.

00:55:08.000 Because it's important for people to remember that the like and dislike button is not there for you to assess whether you're happy with what's being reported on.

00:55:15.000 It's there to bully creators with bad opinions.

00:55:18.000 Absolutely.

00:55:19.000 Or just ugly ones. 0.97

00:55:21.000 Yeah, like me.

00:55:22.000 Every time I'm on the dislike ratio, you guys just get ratioed super hard. 0.66

00:55:25.000 I was like, why is this ugly man on the podcast? 0.72

00:55:28.000 I need a haircut, man. 0.96

00:55:29.000 Look, he's growing out afro that thing all the way.

00:55:32.000 You know, it's built for it.

00:55:33.000 What really bothers me the most, though, is that people aren't smashing the like button for this handsome gentleman.

00:55:38.000 Smash it! 0.54

00:55:39.000 Smash that like button.

00:55:40.000 You guys have to hit it.

00:55:41.000 We're almost at a million subscribers.

00:55:42.000 Do this.

00:55:43.000 We're gonna get the plaques.

00:55:45.000 But not even for the plaques.

00:55:46.000 I want the plaque!

00:55:48.000 Guys, if we don't get, how many likes do you get on average?

00:55:52.000 We get, like, 12?

00:55:53.000 If we don't get 15,000 likes, I'm deleting Freedom Tunes.

00:55:58.000 Right now.

00:55:59.000 So smash that like button. 0.97

00:56:01.000 Well, no, this resulted in a genre of videos that were literally just smash the like button videos, where it was really funny.

00:56:08.000 There'd be, like, a guy, and he'd be like, hey, everybody, what's going on?

00:56:11.000 We're going to smash that like button.

00:56:12.000 The camera, like, zooms in on his face back and forth.

00:56:15.000 There's, like, explosions.

00:56:16.000 And it's, like, 5 million likes.

00:56:19.000 And it worked because YouTube would prop those videos up.

00:56:22.000 So then people just started doing that.

00:56:24.000 That's it.

00:56:25.000 I love that.

00:56:26.000 I mean, people will always find a way to mess with the rules.

00:56:28.000 Everyone's always trying to get away with something at all times.

00:56:31.000 Yeah.

00:56:32.000 Sometimes people will be like, and go ahead and smash that.

00:56:34.000 And they'll have like low energy, but like, you gotta like, it's more than like the buildup.

00:56:38.000 Like you can say tap that like button, but if you say it with like vehemence, you know, then it gets people to tap it.

00:56:43.000 But if you don't have the energy, then it's kind of funny.

00:56:45.000 That happens to me sometimes.

00:56:46.000 Cause like there, there are some videos I end up having to pull an all nighter in order to finish.

00:56:50.000 And then I don't record the bumper until right before I upload.

00:56:52.000 So the video is like really high energy and crazy.

00:56:54.000 And then I'm like, Guys, please like, share, subscribe, and hit the like button if you can.

00:56:59.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:57:00.000 Now I'm like stumbling over my words.

00:57:01.000 I literally become Joe Biden when I don't have enough sleep.

00:57:05.000 You know, the button, the thing.

00:57:07.000 Maybe they should get rid or alter thumbs up to say like, show me more of this.

00:57:11.000 Because on Facebook, that's what it does.

00:57:14.000 Would you like to know more button?

00:57:15.000 Yeah!

00:57:16.000 Click here if you'd like to know more.

00:57:17.000 At the end, there shouldn't be a like or dislike.

00:57:19.000 Once the video ends, it should go, would you like to know more?

00:57:22.000 And it should just appear and you can click it.

00:57:24.000 That's it.

00:57:24.000 With Facebook, I... Would you like to know more about what?

00:57:27.000 The specific video?

00:57:29.000 From this person, it's basically... Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize.

00:57:32.000 Went over my head.

00:57:33.000 I'll go down the list and I'll see things from people that I like following and I don't even care what they...

00:57:40.000 But I'll just like it because I want to see more from that person. So I've broken the out

00:57:43.000 I've seen passed through the algorithm Can we get about a thousand likes for Ian breaking the

00:57:48.000 algorithm like looking past it like it?

00:57:50.000 So apparently if on Facebook you post that you have a kid and got married

00:57:55.000 It'll appear on the top of all of your friends feeds and so what people started doing for a while is they'd post

00:58:01.000 like just got married and had a had a new child so excited and

00:58:05.000 Anyway, none of that's true.

00:58:06.000 I just want to let you know that I'm having a barbecue at my house.

00:58:08.000 No joke, people were doing that.

00:58:09.000 Because the algorithm found out that people interacted the most with posts about marriage and having kids.

00:58:15.000 And everyone's like, love it!

00:58:16.000 They're all commenting and thumbs up.

00:58:18.000 So they get boosted.

00:58:20.000 And then the algorithm makes no sense.

00:58:23.000 Shameful, Tim.

00:58:24.000 That's fraud.

00:58:25.000 Well, we're talking about social media manipulation, and I think this should segue us into our next really major story.

00:58:34.000 Clarence Thomas blasts Section 230 wants common carrier rules for Twitter.

00:58:38.000 Thomas claims Twitter's right to cut off speech raises First Amendment problem.

00:58:43.000 This is an amazing story.

00:58:45.000 Do you guys remember when Trump got sued for blocking people?

00:58:48.000 What?

00:58:48.000 Vaguely.

00:58:49.000 Here's the thing, probably, I'm not going to say I didn't pay attention to it, maybe I did, but there were so many Trump stories that it's like, they've all just gone now.

00:58:56.000 They're all out of my head.

00:58:57.000 They just got washed right out.

00:58:59.000 As soon as he left office, I was like, that's it.

00:59:01.000 Don't need to remember any of this.

00:59:02.000 Like Dumbledore with the pensive, you took your memories out of Harry Potter!

00:59:07.000 I'm going to get a generational spirit if you can talk about Harry Potter around me.

00:59:11.000 Okay, so Trump got sued, and this court ruled Trump can't block people. 0.99

00:59:15.000 And it was like one of the stupidest rulings. 0.98

00:59:17.000 A lot of people were like, that's dumb, because Twitter is a private business, and how could it be a public forum? 1.00

00:59:23.000 Here's the ruling.

00:59:24.000 Trump tweets, it creates a public forum where people can reply.

00:59:26.000 So if Trump bans them, it's violating their First Amendment right, so he can't do that.

00:59:31.000 Then a lot of people were like, but Twitter's a private company and Twitter can remove that.

00:59:35.000 And Twitter did start putting restrictions.

00:59:37.000 So how can you call it a public forum created when a private company has a right to remove this?

00:59:41.000 The way I viewed it was like, imagine Donald Trump holds an event open to the public, but hires a private security contractor.

00:59:49.000 So what, the private security company can kick people out?

00:59:51.000 Yeah.

00:59:51.000 Protesters show up, oh but it's a private security company.

00:59:55.000 You know, they're the ones running this event and control things.

00:59:57.000 They have the authority to remove people so it's not a violation of your First Amendment rights.

01:00:01.000 If you're protesting the president and a private company removes you, so the court's ruled,

01:00:06.000 Trump can't remove you, but a private company can?

01:00:09.000 Makes no sense.

01:00:10.000 So it actually got upheld on appeal.

01:00:13.000 Then it made its way to the Supreme Court where they dismissed it and vacated the ruling.

01:00:16.000 Congratulations, if you're a politician like AOC, you can now block people again.

01:00:19.000 Because she was also implicated in this, because she was blocking people. 1.00

01:00:22.000 Here's where it gets crazy, though.

01:00:23.000 The whole thing's backfiring.

01:00:24.000 The left wanted the regulation, and with this ruling, Clarence Thomas issued this massive opinion.

01:00:30.000 I mean, massive in terms of the impact it may end up having.

01:00:33.000 He issued his opinion, which will have a massive impact, in my opinion, where he said that How is it that a private company like Twitter can ban the president but, you know, these courts are claiming it's a First Amendment issue?

01:00:44.000 Maybe these are not platforms.

01:00:46.000 In fact, they're common carriers like phone companies.

01:00:50.000 Here's what I'm saying.

01:00:52.000 The rules for Section 230, for those that aren't familiar, basically say a web service platform can't be held responsible for the things its users say.

01:00:59.000 You've got to sue the user.

01:01:01.000 Long story short.

01:01:03.000 If Seamus has a blog, let's say you set up a blog where you write articles about religion.

01:01:10.000 And you have a comment section so that people can respond to you and give you thoughts.

01:01:14.000 And you have rules where you're like, this is specifically for talk on Christianity and our opinions.

01:01:19.000 It makes sense, in my opinion then, to ban people who violate your rules.

01:01:22.000 Because the point of your website is for you, Seamus, to publish.

01:01:25.000 Not for the comments.

01:01:26.000 Those are ancillary.

01:01:27.000 Those are peripheral to the main objective.

01:01:29.000 Twitter's express purpose is users commenting and posting things.

01:01:34.000 Yeah.

01:01:34.000 Which is more like a phone company.

01:01:36.000 Yes.

01:01:37.000 Imagine if, like, you went to Verizon for a phone, not to talk to people, but to hear what the CEO of Verizon wanted to tell you.

01:01:44.000 Right?

01:01:44.000 It's very different.

01:01:46.000 You know what I mean?

01:01:46.000 Oh, but you can call someone, but every day you open your phone and there's the CEO talking.

01:01:50.000 And then you can, like, well, I think you're dumb. 0.98

01:01:53.000 That's more like what they're trying to claim. 0.99

01:01:56.000 You know what I mean?

01:01:57.000 It's kind of how these Android phones are.

01:01:58.000 I don't think Google doesn't hit me with an ad every time I open my phone, but there are Google ads on here.

01:02:03.000 Well that is just, they are just burning money if they don't do that.

01:02:07.000 The Libertarians got mad at me though.

01:02:09.000 Uh-oh.

01:02:11.000 The Libertarian Party of Texas said it was horrible for free speech because the government was getting in the way.

01:02:17.000 This is the weirdest thing to me about the big L Libertarian position on this.

01:02:22.000 Why is it that the big L Libertarian Party is pro-authoritarianism as long as it's coming from corporations?

01:02:28.000 It's really weird.

01:02:28.000 That's very weird.

01:02:30.000 Right?

01:02:30.000 So I'm little L Libertarian, meaning I overwhelmingly just want the individual to be protected.

01:02:35.000 When a massive multinational corporation is dumping money into politics and manipulating the ability for people to speak and get their representatives elected, that's authoritarianism, and I'm not okay with that.

01:02:47.000 Well, yeah, it would be one thing if it was like a totally, completely free private market, then it would make some sense to be like, no, they have to be protected and we can't break them up.

01:02:56.000 There's so much state involvement already that it seems as if state involvement in the direction of helping people to express themselves instead of allowing the big tech companies to do whatever they want and be supported in that decision is probably more in line with a lot of the classically liberal principles libertarians have, agree or disagree with them.

01:03:12.000 You can't break up Twitter, though.

01:03:14.000 Twitter works as a service because of its ubiquity.

01:03:18.000 If you broke up Twitter into, like, ten services, nobody would want to use any of these services because, like, who would you be following?

01:03:24.000 Unless they were forced into the Fediverse, then it would make sense, but you can't break up Google or Twitter in the same way.

01:03:30.000 You can break up Google because Google has a bunch of different companies.

01:03:32.000 Like, Google search can't be broken up.

01:03:34.000 They dominate search, period.

01:03:35.000 Nothing you can do about it.

01:03:37.000 However, Google, you know, Alphabet also owns an ad network, ad sales.

01:03:41.000 They run ads, they buy ads, and they've got, you know, G Suite, they've got Calendar, they've

01:03:47.000 got all these different...

01:03:48.000 X, they've got X.

01:03:49.000 Yeah, all of these different areas that do a bunch of different crazy things.

01:03:51.000 You could break that up.

01:03:53.000 So in terms of big tech, what I see is the usefulness of social media is in its monopolistic

01:04:00.000 tendencies.

01:04:02.000 Not in terms of abuse of its users, but in the fact that everybody uses one service to communicate.

01:04:06.000 So that's why I'm very much in favor of it needs to be regulated.

01:04:10.000 There's not going to be Twitter 2.

01:04:12.000 Parler almost came about, it got crushed.

01:04:14.000 So that's where it's really bad.

01:04:16.000 It's not about antitrust, it's about What is this, Rico?

01:04:19.000 What is this, racketeering?

01:04:20.000 What do you call it when all these companies come together and they collude to stifle any competition?

01:04:25.000 Hostile takeover?

01:04:26.000 No, it's just trust violations and stuff like that, right?

01:04:29.000 Yeah.

01:04:30.000 Bad stuff.

01:04:31.000 Hostile takeover is when you buy a company out, right?

01:04:33.000 Those were made illegal in the early 1900s.

01:04:36.000 No, I think they still happen.

01:04:37.000 What do you mean?

01:04:37.000 Well, they're supposed to be illegal.

01:04:38.000 They buy up as much shares as possible until they have a controlling majority, and then they take over.

01:04:42.000 Yeah, they ruin the value of the other company.

01:04:44.000 Which is what those horrible Redditors did to GameStop.

01:04:47.000 It was very sad.

01:04:48.000 I know.

01:04:48.000 Truly awful.

01:04:48.000 Well, did you hear that they're going to be issuing new stock?

01:04:50.000 Really?

01:04:51.000 Wait, they just started over?

01:04:53.000 GameStop, I think, announced that they had a bump in sales and that they were going to be doing a stock offering, and then a bunch of people started selling because a stock offering means the short sellers have an exit.

01:05:03.000 However, the stock still isn't like 200 bucks, so... Really?

01:05:06.000 That's a lot of money.

01:05:07.000 It's still really high right now.

01:05:09.000 Yeah.

01:05:09.000 I'm surprised it didn't take a dive.

01:05:11.000 My thoughts on this free speech thing is that I've never heard of a corporation upholding free speech in the history of the world.

01:05:18.000 That is what the United States government was built for.

01:05:20.000 So obviously, I think we should rely on the government for this one.

01:05:23.000 The government doesn't guarantee free speech.

01:05:25.000 The government is prohibited from infringing upon free speech.

01:05:29.000 Oh, okay.

01:05:30.000 So when people... The Libertarian Party responded to me on Twitter and they were like, you think the problem will be, like, it'll be made better with government involvement?

01:05:37.000 And I'm like, the government involvement goes so far as saying, you can't do that.

01:05:43.000 Not that they're gonna show up to Twitter's headquarters... Nationalize Twitter?

01:05:47.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:05:47.000 And then you send your tweet out and they give you a tracking number, they'll be like, it'll be up in two weeks.

01:05:51.000 Right, the government is like, your inalienable right is the freedom to speech.

01:05:55.000 Now we're gonna make sure people don't infringe on that.

01:05:57.000 Yeah, it's not about the government working at Twitter, it's about a pathway to a lawsuit.

01:06:01.000 It's about the government saying, you can sue over this.

01:06:05.000 That's it.

01:06:05.000 And there's also something to be said for, even if you left the system the way it was now,

01:06:10.000 for the terms of service to be applied equitably.

01:06:13.000 That's a good point.

01:06:14.000 Because there are so many people who have said things which are horrifically violent,

01:06:16.000 but it's in the direction of assaulting conservatives.

01:06:19.000 Like, I mean, we saw this a lot, not to beat a dead horse, but hey, 0.99

01:06:22.000 some dead horses need their butts kicked. 0.97

01:06:24.000 This is a pretty serious topic. 0.78

01:06:26.000 The whole Nick Sandman story is the perfect example.

01:06:28.000 You had, like, grown adults jumping on this kid.

01:06:30.000 No one has a more punchable face. 0.72

01:06:31.000 We should put them in a wood chipper. 0.98

01:06:33.000 Psychotic stuff like that.

01:06:34.000 And they weren't banned.

01:06:36.000 Yeah, but then Trump was like, you're my special boys and you're very peaceful.

01:06:40.000 And they deleted Trump completely off the platform.

01:06:41.000 They're screaming at the top of their lungs to get rid of him.

01:06:44.000 So here's what could happen with Clarence Thomas.

01:06:48.000 It doesn't do anything.

01:06:49.000 They dismissed this case.

01:06:50.000 They vacated the previous ruling.

01:06:51.000 But Clarence Thomas's opinion could be used in a lawsuit or as justification for regulation of these platforms through Congress.

01:06:59.000 I really doubt Congress would do anything because, surprise surprise, the left is not in favor of free speech when they're enemies that are being censored.

01:07:06.000 So there's potential for a lawsuit, I suppose.

01:07:09.000 Under Clarence Thomas' opinion, someone could now sue and say, here's what Clarence Thomas said.

01:07:13.000 What would they sue exactly?

01:07:15.000 What would they sue for?

01:07:16.000 So, it's interesting.

01:07:18.000 I've seen a bunch of arguments, and they tend to fail for a variety of reasons, but when you sign up for Twitter, you're entering into a contract with Twitter, as well as, like, you're both in a contract.

01:07:29.000 You're both parties to this agreement.

01:07:31.000 Now, Twitter and most platforms say we reserve the right to ban anyone for any reason, and that basically, you know, cuts you off.

01:07:37.000 You can't really do much.

01:07:38.000 But the general idea we've seen from some people is, We entered into agreement and Twitter violated that by removing me for fake reasons.

01:07:46.000 The other thing, however, that I think is being overlooked by people is that Twitter should be sued for defamation and libel when someone gets banned.

01:07:54.000 So, for instance, when Milo got suspended, I think they said something like he was running multiple accounts.

01:07:59.000 Okay.

01:07:59.000 So they should have said, we're banning him for no reason.

01:08:02.000 If that's not true, then Milo should sue for defamation, for libel, saying they issued this statement to the press.

01:08:07.000 It's not true.

01:08:07.000 Could you imagine if they started being like, we're going to ban this person for no reason.

01:08:11.000 They do.

01:08:12.000 But if that was their public statement, if they had to say that, or it was defamation, this person we're banning for no reason.

01:08:18.000 What if, like, they run out of people to ban because they've just gotten rid of all their political opponents, but, like, the Twitter CEOs just, they still need blood, and so they just, like, start picking random accounts to be sacrificed every year as tribute, and they just, like, just some dude named Greg, they're just, like, tweeting his, like, he's just, like, he's just, like, tweeting benign stuff, and they're, like, your account has to go.

01:08:39.000 They just, like, will randomly grab people and remove them from the platform.

01:08:41.000 It's like decimation.

01:08:42.000 It's a power trip, man.

01:08:44.000 For tribal reasons, the left has to support it.

01:08:46.000 And so they all just like, clap.

01:08:48.000 Eliminate Greg.

01:08:49.000 Just in unison, they're like, goodbye Greg. 1.00

01:08:52.000 Greg is racist. 0.87

01:08:53.000 We just started cancelling people. 0.89

01:08:55.000 Like, people fall so in line with the narrative that you can't find anyone to cancel.

01:09:00.000 So they just have to randomly select people for cancelling.

01:09:03.000 And like, everyone's like wearing their like, cult hoods.

01:09:06.000 They're like, cancel Greg.

01:09:08.000 You have to clap.

01:09:09.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:09:10.000 No, you have to snap.

01:09:11.000 Cancel Greg.

01:09:12.000 You have to snap.

01:09:12.000 Snap?

01:09:13.000 Clapping.

01:09:14.000 You remember?

01:09:14.000 Do jazz hands?

01:09:15.000 Clapping?

01:09:16.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:09:16.000 You have to do jazz hands and you have to snap.

01:09:18.000 It's called a soy clap.

01:09:20.000 Oh my goodness.

01:09:21.000 It's a soy clap.

01:09:22.000 When you clap between words.

01:09:23.000 Is that?

01:09:23.000 Oh, that's right.

01:09:24.000 I've seen that.

01:09:24.000 Cancel Greg.

01:09:25.000 But let me tell you, I have to be honest, that does make me appreciate someone's opinion more.

01:09:29.000 When they have claps between it, I'm like, this guy, he knows something that I don't.

01:09:32.000 What is the clapping thing and why do people do it?

01:09:35.000 I don't know.

01:09:36.000 I think it's just a cool guy thing.

01:09:39.000 I'm making noise.

01:09:40.000 Or are they like singing?

01:09:40.000 I don't know.

01:09:43.000 You're being loud like, I think this thing.

01:09:46.000 I always imagine it like they're going like, Donald Trump has got to go.

01:09:51.000 Like they're clapping along to the music, you know what I mean?

01:09:52.000 It could be.

01:09:53.000 I was guilty of it earlier.

01:09:54.000 I think when I was telling people to smash the like button, I was doing a little bit of a clap.

01:09:57.000 It just gets the people going.

01:09:58.000 Smash the like button!

01:10:01.000 And they do it because you clap and that means you have authority.

01:10:03.000 Yes.

01:10:04.000 Clapping.

01:10:05.000 Mm-hmm.

01:10:05.000 Yeah, clap on, clap off.

01:10:06.000 Please clap.

01:10:07.000 Please clap.

01:10:08.000 We could have had you all, it's all we had to do is clap, but now we don't have Jeb Bush.

01:10:11.000 Seamus.

01:10:12.000 Yes, sir?

01:10:12.000 Have you been following the news on Project Veritas?

01:10:14.000 No, I have not.

01:10:15.000 I know, I've been, I've been bad.

01:10:17.000 I've been behind.

01:10:18.000 I've been traveling so much lately, it's just... Sleeping under a rock, this guy!

01:10:21.000 I know, I know.

01:10:22.000 I really, I just haven't been sleeping is the thing.

01:10:24.000 That's the issue.

01:10:25.000 Mm-hmm.

01:10:26.000 So the story from Project Veritas.

01:10:28.000 They sued the New York Times, right?

01:10:30.000 Oh, snap. 0.99

01:10:31.000 And they won a major victory.

01:10:33.000 Really?

01:10:33.000 The case is not over.

01:10:34.000 Oh, boy.

01:10:36.000 So I think James mentioned that there's only been, like, in the past 80 years, something like eight lawsuits that have made it past a motion to dismiss.

01:10:44.000 Here's what happens.

01:10:45.000 Wait, eight lawsuits against the New York Times.

01:10:48.000 There's something called anti-SLAPP, Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation.

01:10:53.000 When you sue a prominent news organization or public figure, you have a, it's called an actual malice standard, meaning you had to have known what you said was false or what you wrote was false, which is almost impossible to do.

01:11:06.000 Very difficult.

01:11:07.000 I think we've talked about this before.

01:11:08.000 You really can't prove that somebody knew what they were saying.

01:11:10.000 How do you read their mind?

01:11:11.000 It's really difficult to prove intent, in general.

01:11:13.000 However, if you can get past a motion to dismiss, you can go through their messages.

01:11:17.000 And you can put them under oath, which Veritas now will be able to do.

01:11:21.000 Oh boy!

01:11:23.000 They didn't clear their inboxes at the New York Times, I hope!

01:11:26.000 They've been instructed to preserve all data and communications.

01:11:29.000 Did they smash their cell phones with hammers and delete all 30,000 emails?

01:11:32.000 I'm sorry.

01:11:32.000 Do you want to know what the best part about this lawsuit is?

01:11:35.000 The defense the New York Times had to get James O'Keefe's lawsuit dismissed was that their factual news articles are actually unverifiable opinions.

01:11:48.000 Really?

01:11:48.000 So they said the quiet part loud?

01:11:51.000 I love it!

01:11:52.000 It was a defense.

01:11:54.000 They basically said, when we called Project Veritas deceptive, and, you know, said these things about him, those were just our writers' unverifiable opinions and are thus not actionable.

01:12:05.000 And the judge said, seems to me that if you're stating something is a factual news piece, but your reporters interject their opinions, you should be required to tell people it was an opinion piece.

01:12:17.000 But wait, Tim, if it's the opposite of Fact news.

01:12:22.000 What is that?

01:12:22.000 What's that called?

01:12:23.000 Opinion of the opposite fate.

01:12:25.000 There's another fake word fake, fake, some kind of fake news, fake news, which has been faked.

01:12:31.000 What is unbelievable CNN up?

01:12:34.000 I never thought I'd live to see the day.

01:12:35.000 I know this, this, no, this is serious.

01:12:37.000 I mean, project Veritas may, may if they win and I think they, they will based on this preliminary ruling.

01:12:42.000 It sounds really good.

01:12:43.000 This could set precedent that could last for a hundred years.

01:12:46.000 That would be beautiful.

01:12:46.000 Yeah, I really did not, I did not agree with, um... No, never mind, sorry, I was about to make a comment about the New York Times.

01:12:52.000 Oh, this is New York Times, or is this CNN?

01:12:54.000 Sorry, I'm all over the place right now.

01:12:55.000 Yeah, I didn't agree with New York Times, uh, you know, opinion pieces on the, uh, Holodomor, either.

01:13:00.000 Really weird, going back a long time.

01:13:01.000 Oh, those opinion pieces, yeah.

01:13:02.000 Yeah, those opinion pieces were pretty bad.

01:13:04.000 That they got Pulitzer Prizes for?

01:13:06.000 For their opinions?

01:13:07.000 The Pulitzer Prize in opinion, sorry.

01:13:10.000 So, the way the news has typically worked, and I've talked to lawyers about lawsuits, is they say, Tim, I'm sorry they smeared you, there's nothing you can do, it's an opinion.

01:13:21.000 And I was like, so you mean to tell me, if someone writes an article and says like, Ian is, you know, far right or whatever, They can publish that in a news article and just say, Ian Crossland, a far-right commenter, even though there's no factual basis to that, and they're like, it's their opinion.

01:13:35.000 And I was like, hold on.

01:13:37.000 If a news organization is claiming they're reporting facts, doesn't matter.

01:13:41.000 That phrase is an opinion.

01:13:42.000 And I'm like, how is this the way things work?

01:13:45.000 Veritas sues, and the judge said, if it's a fact-based news story, stands to reason, you have to tell people if it's actually an opinion piece when you put opinions in it.

01:13:56.000 That changes the whole game.

01:13:57.000 Yeah.

01:13:57.000 So, like, if they were to say something which is objectively verifiable, so if they were to say, like, Seamus Coghlan has an IQ below 85 and I sued, well, they would win because that's actually true.

01:14:05.000 But, um, if they make, so I'm curious, if they make objective comments about a person beyond far right or far left, right?

01:14:12.000 Because these terms can be used any way you want to use them.

01:14:15.000 Where is the line drawn with opinion? 0.96

01:14:18.000 So, for example, if you were to say something like that, like, this person is stupid, or something where there's a set standard, though, where you made a comment about someone's IQ but in a disparaging way, but that's something that could actually be verified. 0.98

01:14:28.000 Would that be opinion, or have you sort of trespassed into the area of fact? 0.98

01:14:32.000 It's actually really crazy what constitutes opinion and what constitutes fact.

01:14:37.000 So saying, like, Seamus Coghlan did a backflip, you know, off Tim's deck to the ground.

01:14:45.000 Yeah.

01:14:45.000 You did something that's a fact.

01:14:47.000 Yeah, it is.

01:14:47.000 If I said something like, Seamus Coghlan cheated at a game of chess, that's an opinion.

01:14:55.000 But hold on a second.

01:14:56.000 There are objective standards for whether a person cheats at chess, no?

01:14:59.000 First of all, I don't know how to play, right?

01:15:01.000 So you know that I cheated.

01:15:04.000 I shouldn't say necessarily it's an opinion.

01:15:05.000 It's arguable.

01:15:06.000 So I went through this with a lawyer over a really old piece, and it's basically like, well, what does cheated mean?

01:15:12.000 Define cheated.

01:15:14.000 Like, broke the rules.

01:15:15.000 Or changed the rules to benefit himself.

01:15:18.000 Or, in some way, took an action unbecoming of the traditional... It's like... White supremacist. 0.94

01:15:25.000 Define white supremacist.

01:15:27.000 I would say Trump supporter.

01:15:29.000 So if you call someone a white supremacist, it's actually a non-actionable opinion.

01:15:33.000 Really?

01:15:33.000 Yeah, so I knew that that was true with labels like extremist.

01:15:36.000 I was unaware that calling someone a white supremacist is just a matter... I knew it was often times just used as an opinion and no one was really using an objective definition, but my understanding is that's an actual label.

01:15:45.000 Here's the issue.

01:15:46.000 Or like, far right.

01:15:47.000 Dude, I'm so old, I remember when you had to be conservative in order to be considered far right. 0.84

01:15:51.000 Crazy. 0.50

01:15:52.000 Right.

01:15:52.000 So, there was an article that came out a while ago, and I was talking to a lawyer about it.

01:15:57.000 They called someone a white supremacist, and they said, define white supremacist.

01:16:00.000 And I said, well, I believe the academic definition is an individual who believes the white race is superior. 0.87

01:16:05.000 And he said, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

01:16:06.000 That's not the academic definition.

01:16:07.000 What?

01:16:07.000 The academic definition is about whiteness and privilege.

01:16:10.000 What?

01:16:11.000 Yeah.

01:16:12.000 That's college universities.

01:16:15.000 They say white supremacy is the structure of dominant racial hierarchies in society, which could include Asians or whatever.

01:16:22.000 And so they change the definition.

01:16:23.000 So if you go into court and say, Your Honor, he called me this and it's verifiably false, the individual will say, no, look, here's how we define it.

01:16:31.000 Here's how everyone believes it.

01:16:32.000 And because the media accepts the alternate definition, opinion.

01:16:36.000 Interesting.

01:16:37.000 Unverifiable opinion.

01:16:39.000 And then of course, yeah, they're not required to define their terms.

01:16:42.000 If I was like Seamus Coghlan, whose cartoons bore millions of people a month, would that be an opinion?

01:16:51.000 Well, that's a fact.

01:16:55.000 Everybody just watches and they just have their eyes half closed.

01:16:59.000 That was anodyne enough for a like, and then they'll hit the like button.

01:17:03.000 But if I'm like Seamus Coghlan, who's white, who's racial supremacy... Who's white skin. 0.67

01:17:08.000 Then that's a fact?

01:17:09.000 Or that's also... No, it's an opinion.

01:17:10.000 No, if you call me white skin, that's just an opinion.

01:17:12.000 A statement of fact would be Ian Crosland threw a baseball at a baseball game.

01:17:17.000 Oh, and it was either true or false.

01:17:18.000 Right. 0.91

01:17:19.000 But the other ones are... Ian Crosland has a weak, sissy arm, is an opinion. 1.00

01:17:23.000 Ian Crossland, who has a weak sissy arm, threw a pathetic pitch at a baseball game. 0.99

01:17:29.000 All opinions. 1.00

01:17:30.000 Unless you didn't actually throw the baseball.

01:17:32.000 It's just it's crazy that shops so I want to avoid getting into getting into

01:17:41.000 dangerous territory with YouTube because I want to make sure this is a

01:17:44.000 conversation people can hear but saying someone did something isn't always

01:17:47.000 statement of fact which is weird Really?

01:17:50.000 Like saying Ian Crosland cheated at a game of Magic the Gathering could be opinion.

01:17:55.000 Could be.

01:17:56.000 That's dangerous. Could be. So if you were like you got caught and everyone saw you sliding cards in your deck or

01:18:02.000 something Or I could be like I saw him shuffle that one way and I say

01:18:06.000 in my expert opinion That was a cheating move or for instance, there's a there's

01:18:10.000 a move in magic. This is a good example It's a deck game where you shuffle cards, right?

01:18:14.000 For those that aren't familiar.

01:18:15.000 There was something going on where people would... So you can shuffle your opponent's deck to prevent them from cheating.

01:18:21.000 You can cut their deck.

01:18:23.000 So pros would hand their deck to the other player, the other player would shuffle it and hand it back.

01:18:27.000 There was one thing people would do where they would shuffle it but then keep the last card and throw it on top of the deck.

01:18:34.000 And they would see the bottom card was in fact a not good card.

01:18:38.000 Then the next turn the player would draw the bad card.

01:18:40.000 And so they said that was cheating.

01:18:42.000 Others argued that's not cheating.

01:18:43.000 You can cut the deck any way you want.

01:18:45.000 Information that's revealed because the card is visible is not.

01:18:48.000 This is where the problem comes in.

01:18:49.000 But you would actually so but it would only be opinion if that was what you were referring to as cheating if you were

01:18:53.000 Referring to something as cheating which is objectively agreed upon by everyone who plays the game as being against

01:18:58.000 the rules Then it would be a statement of fact

01:18:59.000 No This is where the problem comes in that apparently

01:19:02.000 Opinion or fact has a lot to do with whether or not large large enough amounts of people agree with a certain

01:19:06.000 definition Interesting.

01:19:08.000 Yeah.

01:19:09.000 Right, so if I said, you know, like what's something everyone agrees with?

01:19:13.000 If a name you could call somebody that meant something objective to every person,

01:19:17.000 which is hard to find.

01:19:18.000 Mm-hmm.

01:19:19.000 Ian Crossland is a X.

01:19:21.000 And everyone's like, oh, an X is very clearly this thing.

01:19:23.000 Yeah.

01:19:24.000 Then it would be like, well, if he's not, then you made that up.

01:19:26.000 The problem is, not everyone agrees on what things are, which makes it weird.

01:19:30.000 Honey is sweet.

01:19:31.000 And that could be a fact, but not everyone's gonna taste sweetness when they taste honey.

01:19:35.000 That, I think, would be a fact.

01:19:37.000 Because of the high sugar content.

01:19:38.000 There's so many people.

01:19:40.000 But think about people saying things like male and female don't exist.

01:19:43.000 Uh-oh.

01:19:43.000 Right.

01:19:45.000 I mean, that is objectively not, that is an anti-factual statement.

01:19:48.000 That's just, that is fake news.

01:19:49.000 That's the problem.

01:19:50.000 But of course, but yeah, I agree that generally it's, it's a, it's a matter of consensus.

01:19:54.000 It shouldn't be.

01:19:54.000 So like, yes, practically speaking, I mean, there are facts, there are moral truths, which are objective, but we operate in a culture where many people believe many different things.

01:20:02.000 And so of course there, we don't have the sort of thing like hegemonic narrative that we might have surrounding gender that we did in a time where things made a little bit more sense with respect to our sexual politics.

01:20:12.000 This is interesting.

01:20:12.000 Think about religion.

01:20:13.000 It's a really good, really good, good context.

01:20:15.000 Like, uh, how, how, how, how is the Pope defined?

01:20:18.000 Like in terms of his position?

01:20:19.000 Yeah, he's the vicar of Christ.

01:20:22.000 So imagine someone who's not religious would say, that's, that's fake.

01:20:25.000 That's not true.

01:20:26.000 That's fake.

01:20:26.000 So then how could you prove defamation based on that?

01:20:29.000 So, but here's where you do get into a matter of fact.

01:20:31.000 So, if you were to say, like, if a non-religious person is to say that, like, they don't believe the Pope is, you know, the successor of Peter and Christ's vicar on earth, that's one thing. 0.54

01:20:42.000 But then if they were to say, like, Catholics do not teach that the Pope is Christ's vicar.

01:20:47.000 Right.

01:20:48.000 Now you're talking about something that, like, we can—the first—I believe it is a fact that the Pope is Christ's vicar on earth, but if we're getting into something that everyone agrees is factual, you just look at what the Church teaches, and if you're saying the Church teaches X when it objectively teaches Y, then you are lying.

01:21:02.000 And so this is something that happened, like, Joe Biden was repeatedly referred to—I've said this before on the show—but he was repeatedly referred to by the media as a practicing Catholic.

01:21:10.000 That's a great point.

01:21:11.000 That's exactly it.

01:21:11.000 does not meet the criteria for what is considered a practicing Catholic based

01:21:15.000 on the definition that the Catholic Church sets because one of the

01:21:17.000 conditions is you have to give full assent to Catholic teaching, which Joe

01:21:20.000 Biden objectively does not.

01:21:21.000 But in the eyes of a non-Catholic, he does enough. 0.99

01:21:26.000 And they're like, oh, it seems like he's practicing.

01:21:28.000 They don't even know what the word practicing means.

01:21:29.000 The word practicing Catholic means exactly, but practicing Catholic.

01:21:31.000 So if they were to say like, he is a devout person or holy man, well, those

01:21:35.000 are, those are more subjective, but practicing Catholic is a technical term.

01:21:39.000 It's not a subjective label of identity.

01:21:41.000 Now what if what if someone said in an article Ian Crossland comma who is objectively factually the Antichrist comma was seen shopping for a new pair of jeans today.

01:21:53.000 Total opinion.

01:21:54.000 Yeah, well, yes.

01:21:55.000 It's a faith-based thing.

01:21:56.000 They can't say your lines.

01:21:57.000 So then here's the question, though.

01:21:58.000 Weird stuff.

01:21:58.000 Are you allowed to throw around words like, objectively, if you're acknowledging that you're only speaking an opinion?

01:22:03.000 You are.

01:22:04.000 What?

01:22:05.000 It's the weirdest thing.

01:22:06.000 So I would say, like, Ian is objectively a white supremacist.

01:22:10.000 That's just opinion.

01:22:11.000 Yes.

01:22:12.000 Because define white supremacist.

01:22:15.000 I told you, Trump voter.

01:22:16.000 If you have a critical race theory definition of white supremacist, then yes, Ian is. 1.00

01:22:20.000 New facts emerged showing that I think Tim's a big jerk. 1.00

01:22:26.000 That's an opinion! 0.99

01:22:28.000 And of course, the trade-off that they have to come to terms with, but won't, is that when words become so subjectively defined, they no longer carry the same weight.

01:22:40.000 So for years and years and years, the word racist was thrown around like it was nothing, and then probably around the time the 2016 election came around, and this is not an original observation, other people have said this, They realized that the word racist just wasn't cutting it anymore.

01:22:53.000 So you'll notice like it was right around 2017 when they started calling everyone white supremacist instead because it's a much more objective sounding term than racist and also it's one that can only apply to white people or people who are in favor of this structure of whiteness or whatever you would call it.

01:23:06.000 Right.

01:23:06.000 And now that seems to have lost all meaning so I think the next term they've sort of moved towards is incitement to

01:23:12.000 violence, right?

01:23:13.000 Like oh if you agree with what Trump said or did or you promote his movement that is incitement towards violence

01:23:18.000 And that's something they've sort of been doing for a long time critical

01:23:21.000 Theorists have done this Oh, if you disagree with trans ideology, then you are inciting violence against trans people because hate crimes occur against them, and that's the result of the fact that you're creating a culture of hatred, etc.

01:23:32.000 But it's so easy to make that argument for any group of people.

01:23:36.000 For example, I could say, well, veterans have a very high suicide rate, so, you know, criticizing U.S.

01:23:40.000 foreign policy probably makes a lot of them feel horrible about their experience overseas, so you're contributing to their suicide rate.

01:23:45.000 You can play these same games with any group you want.

01:23:48.000 So imagine a journalist emails you and they're like, hey, Seamus, we want to just get some some comments from you real quick about the story we're working on.

01:23:55.000 Delete is what I do.

01:23:56.000 Just a real quick question.

01:23:58.000 Would you be in favor of, you know, say people pooling their resources to try and improve technology towards newer, cooler energy tech like fusion?

01:24:07.000 Seamus supports the Green New Deal.

01:24:08.000 And then they would write, hold on.

01:24:10.000 You're like, oh, that sounds good.

01:24:11.000 Then they would write, Seamus Coughlin, a proponent of the Green New Deal, and you would say, that's not true.

01:24:17.000 I never supported that.

01:24:18.000 We asked him in email if he was in favor of supporting Green New Technology.

01:24:22.000 He said, yes.

01:24:23.000 So we call them a proponent of the Green New Deal.

01:24:24.000 Which to be fair, that is the one left-wing policy I do support.

01:24:29.000 We can't afford not to have a Green New Deal right now.

01:24:31.000 It's insane.

01:24:32.000 Now here's the best part.

01:24:33.000 Because you just said that, you can never sue someone who claims you're a proponent of the Green New Deal.

01:24:37.000 Even though I'm just hashtag JK-ing?

01:24:39.000 Doesn't matter.

01:24:40.000 Really?

01:24:40.000 So that does not hold up in a court of law?

01:24:42.000 Joke's on you.

01:24:45.000 Dude, this is a new meme.

01:24:47.000 If somebody wrote, Seamus Coghlan of Freedom Tunes, who is a proponent of the Green New Deal, said today that blah blah blah, if you sued, they would show that clip where you said, it's the one thing I actually agree on, and the judge is gonna be like, I think a reasonable person can conclude you were joking, but you can't hold them responsible for not understanding that.

01:25:03.000 You can't expect the media to be reasonable people, so we're gonna let them off the hook here.

01:25:07.000 There's a possibility that they'll say a reasonable person would have understood the joke and thus they shouldn't have, but I think actually a reasonable judge would say, you can't just assume someone understands your intent.

01:25:17.000 That's hilarious.

01:25:17.000 If you say something and someone takes it literally... So everything everyone has ever joked about really could just be literal.

01:25:24.000 Oh yeah.

01:25:24.000 And the issue then becomes cultural enforcement as to whether or not you hold institutions credible based on what they say.

01:25:29.000 So the question is, what if I'm playing a character in a movie?

01:25:32.000 Does Jeff Goldblum actually believe life will find a way?

01:25:35.000 So, the issue then goes to the actual malice standard.

01:25:38.000 If there's a clip of you, and you say something like, the Green New Deal is the best! 1.00

01:25:42.000 I absolutely am in favor of this, and it turned out to be a... Tim, now you can say it about you too!

01:25:46.000 Oh, of course, but I...

01:25:47.000 I like the real Green New Deal, not the AOC Green New Deal, which is a cult manifesto.

01:25:51.000 So I actually do like the idea of infrastructure investment and new technologies.

01:25:56.000 I don't like AOC's version, which is some kind of weird cult manifesto about equity and healthcare and paying people who don't want to work. 0.97

01:26:02.000 That's garbage nonsense. 0.78

01:26:04.000 But before the Green New... Now we're getting to the Green New Deal. 0.98

01:26:05.000 Well, she's the boss, dude. 1.00

01:26:06.000 She's the boss. 0.99

01:26:07.000 So you come up with your own plan, and until then, listen.

01:26:09.000 If someone writes a story about you saying you support the Green New Deal, and they see a clip from a movie of you saying it, You can't prove actual malice because they'll say look I

01:26:20.000 realize after the fact he doesn't but at the time I genuinely thought it was true based on what I what if you

01:26:25.000 kill someone a movie and they say a known murderer We're actually not that far from that happening though is

01:26:31.000 the problem What about, um... Actual malice standard! 0.76

01:26:34.000 Oh, come on! 0.99

01:26:35.000 Something's wrong.

01:26:35.000 You have to prove they knew the- I know!

01:26:37.000 So, you have- They could have just gotten the clip.

01:26:40.000 So, I'm sure there are some lawyers who might have, like, listen, this is mostly just based off my experience.

01:26:44.000 I'm not a lawyer.

01:26:44.000 My understanding is, the challenge is proving actual malice.

01:26:48.000 Meaning, if Ian says Seamus did something, Seamus has to prove Ian knew beforehand what he was saying was false.

01:26:55.000 If someone says, here's the clip we saw of Seamus shooting a rocket launcher into a building full of nuns, then people would be like, well, a reasonable person might conclude that didn't happen.

01:27:05.000 Well, hold on.

01:27:06.000 But can we now say, Tim Pool, who falsely accused Seamus of shooting a rocket launcher into a group of nuns earlier this week, he calls himself a journalist and he spread this fake news.

01:27:16.000 So what about Ed Norton?

01:27:17.000 Can we say that he is a white supremacist?

01:27:20.000 You can call anyone a white supremacist, I guess, but could you call him a neo-Nazi?

01:27:22.000 Is neo-Nazi an actual defined term?

01:27:24.000 Opinion.

01:27:25.000 Nazi opinion what if you say like curb-stomp somebody killed them because he did it in a movie

01:27:29.000 I think you chose to portray a known Nazi or what if you don't?

01:27:33.000 What do you have to say?

01:27:35.000 Here's what it ultimately comes down to, whether or not the judge thinks you're being reasonable or absurd.

01:27:41.000 The problem is, with Times v. Sullivan, you have an actual malice standard, which means knowing that what you're saying is false.

01:27:49.000 That's a really hard thing to prove.

01:27:51.000 Yes, extremely difficult.

01:27:52.000 So the New York Times fought Project Veritas.

01:27:55.000 In a ridiculous way, saying, our fact-based news, it was actually unverifiable opinion and thus is not actionable.

01:28:03.000 And the judge was like, yo, this is not an opinion section.

01:28:06.000 So what you're saying is taken as fact by most people.

01:28:08.000 It doesn't matter.

01:28:09.000 This is the importance of the Veritas ruling.

01:28:11.000 They're basically saying, your opinions are purported as facts because of the New York Times.

01:28:17.000 Therefore, you lose the protections of the opinion standard.

01:28:22.000 Wow.

01:28:23.000 But the NYT, of course, is saying, actually, we are, as a matter of fact, opinion journalists, no?

01:28:30.000 That was their defense, and then the judge responded.

01:28:33.000 The New York Times responded that their fact-based news article about Veritas was actually unverifiable opinion.

01:28:39.000 And the judge then said, Okay.

01:28:42.000 While typically, opinions, you can't sue for someone's opinion, you put them in a fact-based news article.

01:28:48.000 If I say, so this is where it gets interesting, this article is 100% fact. 0.95

01:28:53.000 Ian Crossland is a lying thief. 0.98

01:28:56.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:28:57.000 Then they can be like, that's actually your opinion. 0.99

01:28:59.000 If I said this is my opinion, Ian Crossland is a lying thief. 0.82

01:29:02.000 Then they can't sue me.

01:29:03.000 And if you do a fact-based article with 99% facts and then one opinion, the entire article becomes an opinion piece?

01:29:09.000 And it must be labeled as such.

01:29:10.000 So this is why Veritas is so important.

01:29:13.000 Because in the past, when I've talked about libel suits, every lawyer says, it's an opinion you can't sue.

01:29:18.000 And I'm like, they straight up accused me of doing a thing.

01:29:20.000 No, it's an opinion you can't defend.

01:29:22.000 They said they murdered orphans.

01:29:23.000 But you can't define some of these terms like causing hurt or violence or incitement.

01:29:27.000 All of these things are interpretable.

01:29:29.000 So you can't win.

01:29:30.000 With this new ruling, it changes the game.

01:29:32.000 Veritas opened the door.

01:29:33.000 So here's a question.

01:29:35.000 You mentioned that the article can be 99% fact-based.

01:29:39.000 And if it's one- like Snopes would sign off on all of it.

01:29:42.000 But if there's one part which is opinion, now the whole thing is an opinion piece.

01:29:45.000 But- Has to be labeled opinion.

01:29:47.000 But, okay, but what if the opinion is really- like what if you're listing facts and then at the end you're like, yes, this did happen, there was this scandal with the Biden administration, blah blah blah, and then at the end you're like, I enjoy grapes.

01:29:58.000 They taste good.

01:29:59.000 And it's an obvious opinion, or like if at some point in the article something comes up which is your opinion, but isn't quite related.

01:30:05.000 Maybe you're setting up the story, but everything else is fact-based.

01:30:08.000 Now the whole thing is an opinion piece, and I can say whatever I want?

01:30:11.000 Fascinating.

01:30:12.000 Well, hold on.

01:30:13.000 You can't say things you know to be false.

01:30:15.000 Are my cartoons opinion?

01:30:17.000 Or did those happen?

01:30:19.000 Dude, you make a good point.

01:30:20.000 Because I'm pretty tired right now.

01:30:22.000 Just like movies.

01:30:23.000 Was Joe Biden, what was your latest one?

01:30:25.000 Joe Biden stutter.

01:30:27.000 Please check that out if you're watching.

01:30:28.000 So I don't know if you guys know this, but Joe Biden, it's not that his brain isn't functioning well and he's not fit to be the leader of the free world.

01:30:34.000 He actually has a stutter because that's how stuttering works.

01:30:37.000 Yeah.

01:30:38.000 So I did a video on Joe Biden's speech therapy class.

01:30:41.000 I think you guys are really going to enjoy it.

01:30:42.000 He gets the stutter worked out.

01:30:44.000 It's, it's, it's just a gut busting laugh fest.

01:30:47.000 Yeah.

01:30:48.000 Yes.

01:30:49.000 Laugh fest from start to end.

01:30:50.000 I did a video of him in math class as well.

01:30:52.000 You know, I think, I think the funniest thing to like in terms of Biden is talking about putting the razor blade in the barrel.

01:30:58.000 That's the best.

01:31:00.000 Tim and I have a bit that we're, I don't want to spoil it, but we have, we're probably gonna do a freedom tune based on another one.

01:31:07.000 It was too good.

01:31:08.000 Before the show, we were talking about Biden as we always do.

01:31:15.000 My opinion is it was a good idea.

01:31:17.000 Thank you.

01:31:18.000 Hey, you made a great point about movies and how if an actor does something in a movie, it doesn't mean that they did it in real life because this is a TV show.

01:31:25.000 Whether you want to, I don't know if people realize or not, we're on TV right now doing characters on a show.

01:31:29.000 This is not how I am when we sit around a table and eat dinner.

01:31:32.000 We're elevated versions of ourselves.

01:31:34.000 So is all social media.

01:31:41.000 So if it was a movie clip of someone doing something, it would be reckless disregard.

01:31:48.000 But that was just your opinion when you said that malice is the standard, so really, you're not wrong, it was just your opinion.

01:31:53.000 Yeah exactly, it was my expert opinion.

01:31:54.000 I did not actually know it wasn't true, so it's not equitable.

01:31:57.000 My point is this is a TV show.

01:31:59.000 We've entered a new stage of art creation where social media is an art form.

01:32:03.000 We're becoming heightened artistic characters that we're creating and we're projecting.

01:32:07.000 So how can you prove any of this stuff is really who we are, what we say on social media?

01:32:12.000 Ian's not real.

01:32:13.000 He's an astral projection.

01:32:14.000 Figments of Jack's imagination.

01:32:16.000 He's an astral projection.

01:32:18.000 I have come here to warn you.

01:32:19.000 Be good to each other.

01:32:21.000 Now is the time.

01:32:22.000 We're fractals of the greater whole.

01:32:28.000 So I'm wondering... Interesting.

01:32:30.000 Is that a fact?

01:32:31.000 Let's get Snopes in here. 1.00

01:32:32.000 Are we fractals of the greater whole?

01:32:35.000 I would say no.

01:32:36.000 Let's see what Snopes has to say.

01:32:37.000 It's the holographic universe.

01:32:38.000 I would love Snopes to fact check.

01:32:40.000 Is Ian Crossland from Timcast IRL an astral projection of figment of Jack's imagination?

01:32:47.000 False!

01:32:48.000 Partly true!

01:32:49.000 Although he is from the outer-verse and has inhabited the body.

01:32:55.000 He does have a physical form in this reality.

01:32:57.000 I don't know, has Snopes actually verified that Ian has physical form?

01:33:01.000 No, no.

01:33:02.000 I'm in contact with them about that.

01:33:05.000 I wonder if we'll be able to prove that anyone that did anything on social media was not a character they created.

01:33:10.000 They weren't doing a bit.

01:33:11.000 My whole Twitter is a bit at this point.

01:33:13.000 My YouTube channel basically was.

01:33:14.000 I mean, I believed a lot of it, but I said it in a crazy character way.

01:33:17.000 That is an age-old defense though.

01:33:19.000 Like I was just kidding and sometimes people abuse that it's like you weren't kidding I but also it's hard to know because sometimes you'll make a really obvious joke people like can you believe he said that?

01:33:29.000 I was joking and they're like, dude, you're falling back and it was just a joke.

01:33:32.000 Come on.

01:33:32.000 I just don't care anymore I tweeted today is 4-5 Which will now be known as Trump Day in honor of the 45th president.

01:33:40.000 It got like a thousand tweets That is literally a joke.

01:33:44.000 I just thought it was funny because I do the dates for when I'm making playlists and I'm

01:33:48.000 like oh it's 4-5.

01:33:49.000 Oh 45.

01:33:50.000 It's Trump day.

01:33:51.000 And I'm like I'm tweeting that.

01:33:54.000 People are like, a lot of people are just laughing.

01:33:57.000 And then I tweeted, welcome to Twitter, enjoy your stay here.

01:34:00.000 So it's just, there are these people, I mentioned the hooping thing when Jack Posobiec posted the clip of George Floyd saying he was hooping.

01:34:09.000 I responded with the Urban Dictionary entry for what hooping is saying, don't forget to get your hooping mug.

01:34:13.000 It's a joke, the whole thing was a joke. 0.93

01:34:15.000 Because Urban Dictionary says it's, you know, shoving stuff up your bum. 0.99

01:34:17.000 Oh, gross. 0.97

01:34:18.000 But it says at the bottom, get your hooping mug.

01:34:20.000 On Urban Dictionary.

01:34:21.000 And then these people were like, Tim, you know, this is why people think the right is so racist.

01:34:26.000 Cause you know, they say things like this or whatever.

01:34:28.000 And then someone was like, Tim claims is from the hood, but doesn't know what hooping means.

01:34:31.000 And I'm like, no, it's a joke.

01:34:32.000 You like, you're the kind of people who thought my impeach the queen tweet was real.

01:34:37.000 This is what, so I don't even care.

01:34:38.000 What are you going to do?

01:34:39.000 Yeah.

01:34:40.000 Reckless disregard of the truth.

01:34:41.000 At this point, we have a faction of people who are so unable to empathize and understand humor.

01:34:47.000 How could the reckless disregard standard even hold?

01:34:50.000 Yeah, so I know these fellas at this publication called The Babylon Bee, and they're very, you know, like, they're handsome, but they're very slow, and I try to explain things to them.

01:35:01.000 No, they're both great, actually, but I'm not sure if you guys have heard, but Snopes has fact-checked them in the past.

01:35:08.000 That's been a really big problem.

01:35:09.000 Then what happens is they're demoted in the algorithm because they're considered to be fake news, even though it's obvious satire.

01:35:15.000 And people, I did a video on this a while ago, but They had this really bogus study where they said that some large percentage of conservatives believe that Babylon Bee headlines were factual.

01:35:26.000 But the way they arrived at that number is they took Babylon Bee headlines, removed them from the context of being published by a satirical outlet, and reworded them in a way to make them sound like they were serious.

01:35:36.000 So there was one headline and it was something like, The evidence against Russiagate was put there to test our faith.

01:35:42.000 It was like an obvious joke, right?

01:35:44.000 And it's a caricature of the creationist argument that fossils are put there to test our faith.

01:35:49.000 And they reworded it to be like, this media pundit said that his faith in Russiagate is unshakable and no evidence could change his mind.

01:35:58.000 It's like, okay, well, you've totally changed it.

01:36:01.000 So that's where it gets really dangerous with fact-checking and the fact that people Get a lot of leniency who actual journalists will get this leniency that comedians and satirists on the right won't get.

01:36:15.000 Right.

01:36:16.000 Yeah, like, the articles in question would say something like, you know, it was like, AOC stands atop her desk and proclaims her support for communism to much fanfare, then flags drop down and the Soviet anthem plays.

01:36:30.000 And then they would reword it to be like, AOC announces that she's forming the Communist Party. 0.54

01:36:34.000 And it's like, people would be like, oh wow, that sounds like real news.

01:36:37.000 But it was like, the actual context was absurdity.

01:36:41.000 They stripped out the absurdity to make it factual news that could be real.

01:36:45.000 Like, Seamus Coghlan goes for a walk with a dog, when the actual article was, Seamus Coghlan walks world's giant dog, you know, clipping a big red dog.

01:36:52.000 Clearly false.

01:36:53.000 And this is funny, so I was actually just going to pull up, I wrote this, it's been probably about two years, but it's probably been about two years, so I was pulling up the script on my Google Drive, so I can pull some of the examples up, but just to verify that it was just friendly ribbing, I just got an email from Ethan, so we don't actually hate each other, as I was checking.

01:37:11.000 No, no, I love those guys.

01:37:13.000 Great article.

01:37:13.000 They are, so basically they reworded, yeah so the article, it was yeah, CNN, God allowed the Mueller report to test our unshakable faith in collusion was reworded as CNN anchor Anderson Cooper said his belief that Trump colluded with Russia is unshakable, it will not change regardless of statements or evidence to the contrary.

01:37:30.000 That actually sounds like something.

01:37:34.000 Exactly.

01:37:36.000 And so they published this whole study about how people are buying into fake news as if it's fact, despite the fact that this is obvious satire and basically everyone knows it.

01:37:43.000 And so, yeah, it's extremely upsetting and it's totally one sided because it never happens the other way.

01:37:49.000 Well, I mean, again, even actual publications, like, well, let's not call New York Times an actual publication.

01:37:54.000 But people who purport to be telling the truth in a fact-based manner are given this leniency, or they are at least attempting to get the kind of leniency that satire websites on the right don't get.

01:38:04.000 I would say at this point, based on the ruling from this judge, that it is a fact that the New York Times injects opinions and masquerades as factual.

01:38:13.000 The New York Times masquerades as a fact-based news outlet, when in fact, it's publishing opinion pieces under the guise of fact.

01:38:19.000 So there's this guy.

01:38:20.000 I don't know if you guys know him.

01:38:21.000 He's like Michael Malice, Michael Malice, Michael Malice.

01:38:24.000 I think you guys might be friends with him.

01:38:26.000 He has said some things.

01:38:27.000 Malice.

01:38:28.000 He has said some things.

01:38:30.000 which suggests he's kind of doesn't like the new york times or uh anything sure about that yeah so

01:38:37.000 i would just look into it to what he's written about this stuff because he seems this guy this

01:38:41.000 michael malice guy saying he doesn't think nyt is that great so i would just shout out michael too

01:38:46.000 much michael malice michael malice That's why I tried to say his name wrong.

01:38:50.000 I was like, I can't keep... He was on the show last Thursday.

01:38:53.000 Yeah, he was.

01:38:54.000 He was great.

01:38:56.000 We literally, like, shout him out, like, three times a week.

01:38:59.000 He's very funny.

01:39:01.000 And also a writer.

01:39:01.000 His new book will be coming out soon.

01:39:03.000 There you go.

01:39:03.000 Now he gets another shout out.

01:39:04.000 Michael Malice!

01:39:05.000 Alright, alright.

01:39:06.000 Let's go to Super Chats.

01:39:07.000 We love you, Michael.

01:39:08.000 Super Chats!

01:39:10.000 Uh, let's see.

01:39:11.000 So, as per usual, the YouTube... Oh, we got the tinfoil gorilla.

01:39:15.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:39:15.000 Did you guys see it?

01:39:17.000 It's in the chat.

01:39:17.000 It's pinned.

01:39:19.000 I finally put up the tinfoil gorilla thing.

01:39:21.000 It's the tinfoil gorilla shirt.

01:39:23.000 He's a gorilla.

01:39:24.000 It's got black tacks instead of white tacks, and he's wearing the tinfoil hat.

01:39:27.000 And, um, it's only going to be up for a little while.

01:39:30.000 So this is a limited edition.

01:39:31.000 We're going to do the tinfoil hat, because basically I decided We were wondering whether we would do the tinfoil hat.

01:39:35.000 And I was like, ah, let's just do the regular gorilla.

01:39:37.000 So we have the graphic.

01:39:38.000 And then I mentioned it.

01:39:39.000 I was like, we'll put it up at some point.

01:39:40.000 And then I never did.

01:39:41.000 And then I finally did.

01:39:42.000 So it's there now.

01:39:43.000 You can buy it.

01:39:44.000 And it will probably not be up for longer than like a week or two, just because I figured this won't be special.

01:39:48.000 So he's able to reflect electromagnetic frequency off of his head and protect his brain.

01:39:54.000 Theoretically.

01:39:56.000 No, no, because electromagnetic waves can actually go through your body and up your skull.

01:40:00.000 And then what it does is it actually makes it bounce around more.

01:40:03.000 Evolution.

01:40:04.000 Yeah, people don't realize that it actually creates a dome that, like a satellite dish, it captures the waves.

01:40:09.000 I like it.

01:40:10.000 So anyway, let's read some Super Chats.

01:40:11.000 We got one, but I can't read it.

01:40:12.000 People were thinking about your beanie then, just by the way.

01:40:13.000 That's right.

01:40:14.000 I can't read the name because YouTube is blocking it, but they say, can't wait for you and B Tatum, only two I joined membership with.

01:40:20.000 That's gonna be a lot of fun.

01:40:21.000 Brandon Tatum?

01:40:22.000 Yeah.

01:40:23.000 I don't know.

01:40:23.000 Your mom says, who would win the fist fight, Joe Biden or Bill Clinton?

01:40:27.000 Hmm.

01:40:27.000 Seamus?

01:40:28.000 That's a tough one.

01:40:28.000 I mean, Bill's younger, right?

01:40:30.000 Good deal older.

01:40:31.000 I think, yeah, who is older at this point, actually?

01:40:33.000 Bill Clinton age.

01:40:35.000 Let's see if I get a factor in opinion.

01:40:36.000 Bill Clinton's 74.

01:40:38.000 And Joe Biden?

01:40:39.000 78.

01:40:39.000 Yeah, I guess Joe Biden is older than me.

01:40:42.000 Bill Clinton would bop him one and win because he's got four years, man.

01:40:45.000 Joe, we're gonna put our fist up.

01:40:47.000 Yeah, I think that, I think, but it's hard because the last time I saw a picture of Bill Clinton, he looked like, neither of these men are in good shape.

01:40:56.000 I'm not sure.

01:40:57.000 I don't, I don't think the victory would exactly be impressive, but I think that Joe Biden would probably lose.

01:41:04.000 I don't think Joe, well, here's the thing.

01:41:06.000 So Joe, we know that Joe knows how to street fight, right?

01:41:09.000 Like he has a razor, he puts it in a rain barrel, bangs it on the cement, gets it rusty.

01:41:13.000 Tenacity.

01:41:13.000 brings i'm a rap this chain around your head right in bill wright would be

01:41:17.000 helping him uh... but but bill clinton is younger and has i think a little bit

01:41:23.000 more energy and also he could he survived being married to a recluse i 0.96

01:41:27.000 just i don't think that's an asset yeah i i think that he's uh...

01:41:30.000 i think he's probably got the edge here by this got the reach

01:41:34.000 because one arms yeah Yeah, yeah.

01:41:37.000 Yeah, but Bill's probably got some crazy Kama Sutra Kung Fu or something, you know what I mean?

01:41:42.000 He's ready to tangle.

01:41:43.000 Yeah.

01:41:44.000 He's been doing it his whole life.

01:41:45.000 He'll be like, let me show you how I do it, Bill!

01:41:46.000 Since college.

01:41:47.000 I mean, Joe!

01:41:48.000 Let's go, let's get in a fight! 1.00

01:41:50.000 Let me show you how I do it!

01:41:53.000 My hair and legs!

01:41:55.000 Now, of course, this is factual and not opinion-based, so you can quote me on the note.

01:41:59.000 Alright.

01:42:00.000 That was the way you phrased it.

01:42:01.000 All right, let's see.

01:42:02.000 Logan Sisko says, IRL crew, Crowder made me think last week.

01:42:05.000 Why is the left saying only cops need guns, but also ACAB?

01:42:08.000 Also, Portnoy Pool 2024.

01:42:10.000 I like that ticket.

01:42:11.000 I don't know about that one.

01:42:12.000 Dave's cool, though, but I'm not running for office.

01:42:16.000 Yeah, because there's no logic.

01:42:18.000 There's only tribalism.

01:42:20.000 Listen, if you're like, the people here I believe all operate on principles.

01:42:24.000 Where it's like, I don't care about which tribe it is, I care about whether it's right or wrong and we'll like, you know, make things better.

01:42:30.000 And then you have some people who are just like, I wanna win!

01:42:33.000 And I'm just gonna be on the side of the winner.

01:42:35.000 So, they're simultaneously like, only the cops should have guns!

01:42:38.000 Only the social workers should have guns too. 1.00

01:42:40.000 That's right, that's right, yeah.

01:42:43.000 They're basically cops.

01:42:44.000 That's the social worker thing is so funny because you would just end up creating a two-tier system which would in practice end up being way more racist because the phone calls the social workers would probably be more likely to happen in neighborhoods where you have like these Karens calling the police on everyone and they'd send social workers out. 0.97

01:42:58.000 So it would be it would be areas where there's less violent crime getting a lot of the social workers and you'd create sort of like a two-tier system where impoverished neighborhoods were policed by actual cops and like wealthier neighborhoods and white neighborhoods just got these cushy social workers.

01:43:10.000 Have you done a cartoon on the social workers responding to crimes?

01:43:12.000 I have not.

01:43:13.000 That might be something, that might be fun.

01:43:15.000 There's like a city burning down in a violent fire and there's like a criminal, he's holding people hostage.

01:43:20.000 CALL THE SOCIAL WORKER! 1.00

01:43:21.000 Alright, FishB84U says, Yes, Seamus, I love Freedom Tunes.

01:43:28.000 Did a binge watch on the debunkers earlier today.

01:43:31.000 Thank you!

01:43:31.000 Thank you.

01:43:32.000 Keep watching this.

01:43:32.000 We're going to be producing more.

01:43:33.000 We had a hiccup with the production of one that I was hoping to release this month, but we might get it out later.

01:43:37.000 They've been a lot of fun, and I enjoy making them.

01:43:39.000 So thank you so much.

01:43:41.000 QuietGuitaristFan says, should make a shirt with Ian that says, you could make that out of graphene.

01:43:46.000 Also, correction from Friday, Christ was crucified on Friday and died on Friday.

01:43:50.000 Is that true?

01:43:51.000 Yes, yeah.

01:43:52.000 Good Friday.

01:43:52.000 Oh wow.

01:43:53.000 You can make a lot of stuff out of graphene.

01:43:54.000 That's true, yeah.

01:43:56.000 Ian's Minute of Graphene.

01:43:57.000 It might not be wrong.

01:43:59.000 We are carbon, actually.

01:44:00.000 All right, Chris Blank Production says, will you be posting your segments from your other channels on your website soon?

01:44:05.000 They're there already.

01:44:06.000 Just at the bottom.

01:44:07.000 You scroll down and the other segments are actually there.

01:44:09.000 So it's the last guy's chat.

01:44:11.000 So Jesus was crucified and died within the same day.

01:44:13.000 I thought he hung there for days.

01:44:14.000 No, no, he died.

01:44:15.000 So it was common for people who were victims of crucifixion to hang there for days, but Jesus did not.

01:44:19.000 He died the same day.

01:44:25.000 They were particularly brutal to him in a way that they generally were not to people who they crucified.

01:44:29.000 So part of the punishment with crucifixion is that you would hang there and you would just have your face pecked off by crows.

01:44:36.000 It was horrible.

01:44:38.000 But no, he died quickly because of how harsh and brutal they were to him, and he gave up his spirit, and then they went and stabbed him.

01:44:46.000 Also, one thing they would do to speed the crucifixion up, which they didn't do to Jesus, but did to the two thieves on the cross next to him, is they would break the legs too, so that they would just go down and then suffocate.

01:44:55.000 Because when you're crucified, You have to prop yourself up to get oxygen into your lungs, and so you will die of asphyxiation once you get weak enough to just hang there, which is, you know, that's going beyond the unbelievably excruciating pain you're in.

01:45:11.000 And yeah, they would just come up and crack people's legs if they wanted to speed the process up, so they couldn't prop themselves up and get air.

01:45:16.000 It was prophesied they wouldn't break any bones.

01:45:18.000 Exactly, they wouldn't break any bones.

01:45:19.000 But they did pierce him through his heart, and yeah, water and blood came out.

01:45:22.000 All right, let's see.

01:45:24.000 I don't like that.

01:45:26.000 Support policing in general.

01:45:27.000 We need it.

01:45:27.000 Tim I'm a cop, things have gone crazy and the environment we work in is very hostile

01:45:31.000 towards us.

01:45:32.000 The George Floyd trial will only cause more problems for us all.

01:45:35.000 I don't like that.

01:45:38.000 Support policing in general, we need it.

01:45:40.000 But of course, it's a big conversation.

01:45:43.000 Alla Gaming Channel says, Hey man, say man stop hating on Bible man.

01:45:48.000 That's my guy.

01:45:49.000 It took me this long to say this because I'm never able to catch the stream.

01:45:53.000 Stop hating on Bibleman.

01:45:55.000 Was that a show?

01:45:56.000 Do you know who Bibleman is?

01:45:58.000 Oh my goodness.

01:45:59.000 I never saw it, but I've seen little bits and pieces.

01:46:02.000 This was like, wait, was Bibleman, was this live action or was this animated?

01:46:05.000 This is animated, right?

01:46:06.000 So this is the 90s.

01:46:07.000 It was a 3D thing.

01:46:08.000 Yes.

01:46:08.000 I'm for that.

01:46:09.000 I never saw any of it, but I definitely.

01:46:12.000 All right.

01:46:13.000 Sekantia says, okay, here's 50 from Allie. 0.95

01:46:15.000 Now read it.

01:46:16.000 How about LEO YouTubers, law enforcement officer YouTubers, like Donut Operator, Officer 401, Angry Cops, or Mike the Cop, an experienced POV for LEO and some good input on cops among all this LEO tension and misconception as an excellent idea.

01:46:31.000 I'm familiar with Donut Operator.

01:46:32.000 I'm not familiar with the others, but I'd love- How about Brandon Tatum?

01:46:35.000 What's up?

01:46:35.000 How about Brandon Tatum?

01:46:36.000 I know.

01:46:37.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:46:37.000 But I think Donut Operator would be cool too.

01:46:39.000 I've seen his videos.

01:46:40.000 Yeah, I've seen some of their stuff.

01:46:41.000 I think Mike the Cop isn't a cop anymore though, right?

01:46:42.000 But he's still a law enforcement YouTuber.

01:46:44.000 Aren't they all?

01:46:46.000 I think so.

01:46:46.000 Are they all retired?

01:46:47.000 Yeah.

01:46:47.000 I just imagine, I mean, who would want to do that job anymore?

01:46:49.000 I just like Donut Operator.

01:46:50.000 It's a great name.

01:46:50.000 That is a great name.

01:46:51.000 That is a fantastic name.

01:46:53.000 Very self-aware name.

01:46:54.000 Yep.

01:46:54.000 Having fun with it.

01:46:56.000 Troy Dunham says, Hey Seamus, love your channel.

01:46:58.000 What is your take on the media blackout of the April 2nd insurrection on the Capitol?

01:47:02.000 Oh, I'm not familiar.

01:47:03.000 The media was so blacked out that I didn't even get a word on it.

01:47:06.000 But God bless you.

01:47:08.000 I'm glad you support my work and appreciate it.

01:47:10.000 That was the Farrakhan guy.

01:47:11.000 Yeah, that was the Farrakhan guy.

01:47:11.000 Also a supporter of Louis Farrakhan.

01:47:13.000 That's weird.

01:47:13.000 Why would the media talk about that?

01:47:16.000 Why are you not talking about it?

01:47:17.000 Insurrection?

01:47:18.000 Isn't that a threat to our democracy?

01:47:20.000 Weird.

01:47:20.000 This is very dangerous to our democracy.

01:47:22.000 Yeah.

01:47:23.000 All right, Crimson7 says, you guys are awesome.

01:47:25.000 Thanks for helping me get to know the lies and truths spread by media.

01:47:28.000 If the other people like me want to talk political and culture, I have a Twitch at Crimson27 where I like to talk about ideas normally on around 11 p.m.

01:47:40.000 Central Time.

01:47:40.000 Hey, there you go.

01:47:41.000 Nice.

01:47:42.000 AcesMaven says, glad to see Seamus on the show again.

01:47:45.000 Thank you.

01:47:45.000 I really enjoy Freedom Tunes.

01:47:46.000 Maybe you can look into Kayvon Comedy as a possible future guest.

01:47:50.000 We'll check it out.

01:47:52.000 Find someone to replace Seamus.

01:47:52.000 Are you just done with me through with me?

01:47:54.000 Yeah, same breath.

01:47:55.000 He's like, now Seamus is great, but let me tell you about this other guy.

01:48:01.000 Hey, Fat Freddy's Cat says, Tim, check out the opening of the new skate park in Des Moines, Iowa.

01:48:05.000 Dew Tour will be there.

01:48:06.000 It would be a cool thing if you were there, and I work too much, so that won't happen.

01:48:10.000 That's cool, though.

01:48:11.000 Holograms.

01:48:12.000 Holograms.

01:48:13.000 Astral projections.

01:48:14.000 Simple holograms.

01:48:16.000 All right.

01:48:16.000 Jerk Emperor says, I don't know how much more negatively I can handle.

01:48:20.000 How negatively I can handle.

01:48:22.000 I'm horrible because I'm male. 0.91

01:48:23.000 Oppressed because I'm black. 0.99

01:48:24.000 And now I just outright suck because I'm a Trevor. 0.99

01:48:28.000 I didn't pick that name, guys. 0.96

01:48:30.000 Sounds like TimCast.com is anti-Trevor.

01:48:32.000 I'm sorry, Trevor. 0.99

01:48:33.000 Somebody super chatted saying Trevor sucks. 0.97

01:48:35.000 It was just like as a general. 0.99

01:48:36.000 And so we started joking like Trevor's the worst.

01:48:39.000 Dude, I like Trevor.

01:48:40.000 Hold on.

01:48:40.000 I like Trevor.

01:48:41.000 You know, I do too.

01:48:42.000 Trevor's great.

01:48:43.000 Trevor's awesome.

01:48:44.000 Yeah, who said Trevor was bad?

01:48:46.000 They're bad.

01:48:46.000 Why would you do that?

01:48:47.000 This is TrevorCast IRL.

01:48:48.000 So we're all about it.

01:48:49.000 Males and people that identify as black.

01:48:52.000 Those people are awesome.

01:48:53.000 People are awesome.

01:48:53.000 Especially Trevor's.

01:48:54.000 Agreed.

01:48:55.000 Alright, alright.

01:48:55.000 Jack Daw says, I would like to file a complaint over our pillow.

01:48:58.000 The quality was too high.

01:48:59.000 I bought...

01:49:01.000 I bought the one off Teespring as a gag for a friend.

01:49:03.000 Come to find out it's decent. 0.66

01:49:04.000 What the hell?

01:49:05.000 I thought I was buying burlap and peanuts. 0.96

01:49:07.000 Here's the thing, what keeps you up isn't the pillow, it's the emptiness in your stomach under communism.

01:49:11.000 The Teespring version was just the joke graphic, and then I decided to make the burlap sack with packing peanuts.

01:49:16.000 Which, we're gonna have to figure that one out, how to get it out.

01:49:19.000 The idea was to do something with Ryan Long where we would make this commercial.

01:49:23.000 But I think...

01:49:24.000 I don't know if the good pillow from David Hogg is actually going to happen.

01:49:29.000 And we need it to because the burlap is on standby.

01:49:32.000 We do have them.

01:49:34.000 Have you seen our pillow?

01:49:35.000 I saw one.

01:49:36.000 It was actually in the room that I am crashing in.

01:49:38.000 It was right there.

01:49:39.000 I was very offended.

01:49:40.000 I got rid of it.

01:49:41.000 I was like, I can't sleep on this pillow.

01:49:42.000 It's got the fist holding the pillow.

01:49:46.000 Let's see.

01:49:46.000 Zachariah Kitzman says, Cop here.

01:49:48.000 Most policies are open-ended to leave liability on the officer and not the department.

01:49:52.000 I.e.

01:49:52.000 if a school shooting happens, the department can't mandate I go in because if I'm in, if I'm injured, it's on them.

01:49:57.000 And then the cop gets sued for not going in.

01:50:00.000 Isn't that amazing?

01:50:03.000 All right, let's see where we're at.

01:50:04.000 Ryan M. Prower says, Just got out of the military, but a week before I did, we went through that extremism training.

01:50:10.000 I don't have enough room to summarize it here, but it was unnerving how the brief went and what the message was.

01:50:15.000 I just wanted to let... And then it cuts off right there.

01:50:18.000 They found him.

01:50:19.000 They found him.

01:50:19.000 They were like, stop typing that!

01:50:22.000 You're coming back!

01:50:23.000 Can't they make you re-enlist?

01:50:25.000 What?

01:50:26.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:50:27.000 Like if you're in for four years and you leave, they can reactivate you and force you to come back?

01:50:30.000 Maybe.

01:50:31.000 I don't know how that works.

01:50:32.000 Pretty sure that's true.

01:50:33.000 I think I've heard of that.

01:50:34.000 Yeah, I'm pretty sure.

01:50:35.000 I mean, they can draft people.

01:50:36.000 They haven't done it in a long time, but it wouldn't completely shock me.

01:50:40.000 They could pull people back in.

01:50:41.000 I think it depends on your skill set.

01:50:42.000 Nicholas Montiel says, last week a super chat said John the Baptist wrote the book of Revelation.

01:50:47.000 It was written by the Apostle John when he was in exile on Patmos.

01:50:51.000 Love you all.

01:50:52.000 Stoicism episode.

01:50:54.000 Yes.

01:50:55.000 Ryan Holiday.

01:50:56.000 Yes.

01:50:57.000 Do you know who wrote Revelation?

01:50:58.000 John was not the Baptist.

01:51:00.000 It was a different John.

01:51:01.000 John of Atmos.

01:51:02.000 Is that what his name was?

01:51:03.000 Patmos. 0.50

01:51:04.000 No, no, no.

01:51:04.000 It's Apostle John when he was in exile on Patmos.

01:51:07.000 And that's not the Baptist? 0.58

01:51:08.000 No, it's a different one.

01:51:09.000 Okay.

01:51:10.000 Seamus, do you think that the vaccine passport is the Mark of the Beast?

01:51:13.000 Like Marjorie Taylor Greene? 0.86

01:51:14.000 Here's the thing.

01:51:17.000 The Mark of the Beast, like, low-church Protestants as a group, not always. 0.94

01:51:24.000 I love them.

01:51:24.000 Some of them are super good people.

01:51:26.000 I love them, but often we'll just kind of call anything the mark of the beast.

01:51:31.000 So basically everything that comes out.

01:51:34.000 The Babylon Bee also had a very funny article.

01:51:36.000 It's like the vaccine passport can now be like, like they're now offering the vaccine passport like on your hand or forehead.

01:51:43.000 It's funny.

01:51:45.000 I don't know.

01:51:46.000 I mean, people, there are so many things that people have said are the mark of the beast, I just tend to say, you know, I don't think so.

01:51:51.000 What do you think is the mark of the beast, Super Chat?

01:51:54.000 Believe it or not, I don't think it's the end of times.

01:51:58.000 I think that's a typical view people take.

01:51:59.000 Everyone sort of thinks their generation is the last one.

01:52:02.000 I don't think so.

01:52:02.000 And also, like scripture says, no one knows the day nor the hour.

01:52:06.000 And it's very well possible that this is the end of the West as we know it, or the end of America, but it's not the end times.

01:52:14.000 There hasn't been worldwide apostasy.

01:52:16.000 There's been quite a lot of apostasy in the West, but in Africa and even in China, the church is growing.

01:52:22.000 Yeah.

01:52:23.000 Kiwi2113 says, love it when Ian brings up Dune.

01:52:26.000 It is my ultimate favorite series.

01:52:28.000 It's an interesting look behind the curtain of government in space.

01:52:31.000 It was so good.

01:52:32.000 I read it when I worked at Ground Zero.

01:52:33.000 I would do 6 p.m.

01:52:34.000 to 6 a.m.

01:52:35.000 shifts Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and had a lot of time on my hands doing security.

01:52:40.000 And man, that book kept my attention.

01:52:43.000 Eve Welcome says, Ian, you're adorable.

01:52:45.000 If I wasn't happily married, dot, dot, dot, wink.

01:52:47.000 Eve!

01:52:48.000 Well, Eve, you shouldn't really be talking about people that way.

01:52:51.000 If you are happily married, please don't.

01:52:54.000 She says, fellow Dune nerds unite.

01:52:56.000 Or if you're unhappy, even if you're unhappily married, you shouldn't talk about people like that.

01:52:59.000 You should show your husband Dune.

01:53:00.000 She says, bless the maker and his water.

01:53:02.000 Bye, lol, kayfa.

01:53:04.000 What does that mean?

01:53:05.000 I think that's from Dude.

01:53:07.000 I don't know.

01:53:07.000 I read it.

01:53:08.000 By the way, I was not insinuating that she's not happily married.

01:53:10.000 Just please don't.

01:53:11.000 Even if you're unhappily married, don't say emotionally unfaithful things.

01:53:15.000 Talbot Link says, y'all need to read Machiavelli's Art of War.

01:53:18.000 Very info-dense, two-part conversation that discusses a great many structures and behaviors can work as a short play.

01:53:24.000 It'll blow Ian's mind.

01:53:25.000 I didn't know Machiavelli did an Art of War.

01:53:27.000 I saw you have Art of War on your desk downstairs.

01:53:29.000 Yeah.

01:53:30.000 Great.

01:53:30.000 I think that might be my little Art of War.

01:53:31.000 Someone gave it to me.

01:53:32.000 I think Tiffany gave it to me.

01:53:34.000 Tim's favorite book.

01:53:34.000 He's always plugging it.

01:53:35.000 He's always telling me, read Art of War.

01:53:36.000 I still haven't read it.

01:53:37.000 Have you read through it yet?

01:53:38.000 No.

01:53:39.000 Have you ever heard that story about that Chinese general who was completely outnumbered and had very little resources?

01:53:45.000 So he opened the gates to his fortress, climbed on top of the wall and started playing a lute or something.

01:53:51.000 And then when the enemy's army showed up, they were like, It's a trap!

01:53:54.000 Retreat now, man!

01:53:55.000 He's one of my heroes.

01:53:57.000 He was Lubez.

01:53:58.000 He invented the crossbow, the repeating crossbow.

01:54:01.000 What else was he gonna do?

01:54:02.000 It's risky, but a lot of people would not do that.

01:54:05.000 It smelled like zoogilia.

01:54:07.000 They thought it was a trap, so they were on that.

01:54:08.000 When YouTube trumps to demonetize me, that's what I do.

01:54:10.000 Dude, he's one of my idols.

01:54:12.000 Historical idols, that guy.

01:54:13.000 He's known as a genius, genius strategist and philosopher and artist.

01:54:18.000 That's an awesome story.

01:54:19.000 He was a farmer.

01:54:20.000 That story's great.

01:54:21.000 from public life and did not want to join and they sought him out and had to

01:54:25.000 go visit him three they called him the sleeping dragon the people were like you 1.00

01:54:27.000 gotta find this guy and he went he kept appealing to him like please join me and

01:54:31.000 he was like I and then he realized I have to I have no choice I'm being

01:54:34.000 called to service that story is great you'll love that guy I thought it was a

01:54:38.000 trap yeah a genius That's right.

01:54:42.000 I only read the first one.

01:54:43.000 And I'm fighting a sneeze right now.

01:54:44.000 seven book Dune series is amazing, truly great storytelling.

01:54:47.000 That's right.

01:54:48.000 I only read the first one.

01:54:49.000 Ben Jammin says, remember when YouTube had five stars

01:54:52.000 out of likes and dislikes?

01:54:53.000 And I'm fighting a sneeze right now.

01:54:54.000 Oh, bless you.

01:54:55.000 I'm not gonna sneeze.

01:54:56.000 I have some tissues for you, Tim.

01:54:59.000 You can breathe out your mouth really slow.

01:55:01.000 So I, today I am taking over, I am standing in for Tim who has to sneeze right now.

01:55:05.000 Today's show we're gonna be talking about.

01:55:07.000 Normally I can fight it, but the sneeze got me.

01:55:10.000 Sorry, here's the thing.

01:55:11.000 I learned this recently.

01:55:12.000 I thought that everybody sneezed more easily when they were staring at light.

01:55:17.000 I know like staring into a light can induce sneezes for me, but for apparently that's not true for everybody.

01:55:21.000 Typically it's for people with light eyes.

01:55:24.000 Wow, okay.

01:55:25.000 So Tim, does like staring into the light help you sneeze or make you have to sneeze?

01:55:28.000 Okay.

01:55:28.000 I have a theory about that.

01:55:30.000 So when you have like bacteria or fungus in your wind canal and you stare into light, the light kills it and then your body expels it.

01:55:38.000 I don't think that's true.

01:55:39.000 I think it just stimulates the nerve.

01:55:41.000 That sounds like a New York Times opinion piece.

01:55:44.000 Yeah, opinion, by the way.

01:55:47.000 Alright, I can't read Cyrillic, so I'll just read what they said.

01:55:50.000 E says, Dune is awesome.

01:55:52.000 Sci-fi TV series is a bit better than Lynch's movie, especially second installation.

01:55:56.000 Children of Dune that follows later books.

01:55:58.000 It shows that Paul, the protagonist of the first book, is not a hero of the story, but a villain.

01:56:02.000 Dude, did you guys see this new story from the New York Times?

01:56:07.000 About the Mario... This opinion piece?

01:56:09.000 The original Mario Bros.

01:56:10.000 found in a desk for over 35 years.

01:56:14.000 So 35 years ago, somebody bought an original Mario Bros.

01:56:17.000 NES and left it in their drawer and forgot about it for 35 years.

01:56:20.000 Whoa.

01:56:21.000 They got busy.

01:56:21.000 They sold it for, I think, like $660,000.

01:56:23.000 What?

01:56:24.000 Oh, in the box?

01:56:26.000 Yeah, the best part.

01:56:27.000 No, sealed, shrink-wrapped and everything.

01:56:28.000 The best part was how the New York Times had to explain what the game was.

01:56:31.000 And they say, according to the instruction booklet, It is a game about two brothers, Mario and Luigi, who are

01:56:37.000 attempting to rescue Princess Toadstool after Bowser and his turtle army invaded the Mushroom

01:56:42.000 Kingdom, turning the people into bricks. 1.00

01:56:44.000 I didn't know that happened.

01:56:45.000 Yeah.

01:56:46.000 And so Mario- Fake news. That's more NYT misleading nonsense.

01:56:49.000 Check this out. Mario's literally going around punching bricks, shattering them, and then ripping the

01:56:55.000 things from their innards.

01:56:56.000 So there's mushroom people turned into bricks, and Mario punches them, shattering them to pieces,

01:57:03.000 And then the mushroom remnants come out and he eats it to grow.

01:57:06.000 That's crazy.

01:57:07.000 I didn't realize that that was the plot.

01:57:09.000 This sounds like opinion.

01:57:11.000 Most people don't know that Mario punches bricks.

01:57:13.000 Yeah, his little hand is up there.

01:57:14.000 His hand is up.

01:57:15.000 He jumps and punches the bricks.

01:57:16.000 I should clarify, it's Super Mario Bros.

01:57:18.000 Mario Bros.

01:57:18.000 was where Mario and Luigi were on one screen and the things keep coming out of the sides.

01:57:24.000 That's a fun game.

01:57:25.000 That's in Mario 3, you can play that.

01:57:26.000 Oh, I love that game.

01:57:27.000 Yeah, the arcade version.

01:57:28.000 Yep.

01:57:28.000 Super Mario Bros.

01:57:29.000 Did you guys ever play Donkey Kong 3?

01:57:30.000 Oh boy, I hope you bring Donkey Kong up.

01:57:32.000 Where you jump up with a spray gun and you're spraying Donkey Kong's butt and he's like climbing up towards beehives and like he's knocking bees down at you.

01:57:38.000 I don't know what you're talking about.

01:57:40.000 It's so funny.

01:57:41.000 I mostly remember the original Donkey Kong, dude.

01:57:43.000 That game was awesome.

01:57:44.000 You jumping over barrels.

01:57:45.000 Donkey Kong Jr.

01:57:46.000 was amazing too.

01:57:48.000 Really good.

01:57:49.000 I used to dream about that game.

01:57:50.000 Oh my goodness.

01:57:50.000 Like how can I make that jump to that other rope?

01:57:53.000 I would dream about it.

01:57:55.000 Yeah, I remember like back in the day, so we had a Sega Genesis, like every time you died you had to completely restart.

01:57:59.000 I remember as a kid like having dreams where I finally got to the next level and I'd be like, what happens there?

01:58:04.000 So we got a couple different superchats from people, so I'll just read one of them about enlistment.

01:58:09.000 Carl Re says, my first superchat, when you enlist you have an eight-year commitment to the government.

01:58:14.000 You sign up for four, you have four years active and four years inactive ready reserves.

01:58:19.000 Oh, eight years!

01:58:22.000 I can't remember who I asked, but I was like, I think it's on the show, would you recommend enlisting or going to college and getting a degree?

01:58:27.000 And they're like, get your degree first, you know?

01:58:29.000 And going in as like an officer?

01:58:32.000 Wait, so can't you only take advantage of the GI Bill?

01:58:36.000 Does the GI Bill pay off your loans after you have them?

01:58:38.000 I have no idea.

01:58:40.000 I don't know.

01:58:40.000 But I guess the difference is being enlisted or being a commissioned officer.

01:58:43.000 Going in as an officer.

01:58:44.000 Better going in as an officer.

01:58:45.000 Interesting.

01:58:46.000 Daniel Bundrick says, the ironic thing about the knee being on Floyd's shoulder blade is that it would suppress breathing more than it were if it were on his neck, since no pressure is on the lungs, especially in the case of fentanyl overdose, where respiratory suppression is common.

01:58:57.000 Interesting.

01:58:58.000 Yeah, very, very interesting.

01:59:01.000 Bitcoin Hunter says, great show.

01:59:02.000 Freedom Tunes is awesome.

01:59:03.000 Oh, thank you.

01:59:03.000 you. Thank you. And that's not. Everyone's just saying Dune over and over again. Isn't it?

01:59:12.000 I was going to say this earlier.

01:59:13.000 It's hilarious what people will seize on from a show.

01:59:16.000 You discuss so many topics, but you never know what's going to stick.

01:59:19.000 Dune is underrated in our society.

01:59:21.000 I think that's why.

01:59:22.000 Dune is awful.

01:59:25.000 Super chat me and tell me why I'm wrong.

01:59:28.000 Dune is the best!

01:59:29.000 I knew you were going to do this.

01:59:30.000 I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

01:59:35.000 Paul Atreides.

01:59:36.000 And Duke Arconin.

01:59:39.000 Zazuba says, Oligopoly is the word you're looking for to describe big tech and social media.

01:59:44.000 I definitely like the idea of making Twitter a common carrier.

01:59:48.000 How do you do that if it's a public, a private company?

01:59:51.000 Verizon's a private company.

01:59:52.000 Here's the thing.

01:59:53.000 I think instead of Twitter, everyone in the country should just get one big like group text.

01:59:58.000 And when you have your opinion, you'll just like send your opinion out to the group text and everyone else gets it.

02:00:02.000 Just be going So you find something really cool you just like retweet it

02:00:06.000 You know I mean are you like resend it?

02:00:08.000 That's I think Twitter should be should be everyone should be banned from Twitter and Trump should be brought back

02:00:12.000 Trump is just That's hilarious. He would love it

02:00:17.000 It's just called Trump er and like there's no react ability because no one has an account

02:00:21.000 But he's still just tweeting all the time. No you can only everyone love this I do no

02:00:25.000 I think it'd be even funnier if you couldn't even do that so he has no feedback on the tweet

02:00:28.000 But he's still constantly putting them out there. He's doing that with his emails

02:00:32.000 He is, yeah.

02:00:34.000 He just sends like 150 character emails out every time he would have sent a tweet out.

02:00:38.000 He's trained.

02:00:39.000 No, now he sends paragraphs.

02:00:40.000 No, I was kidding.

02:00:42.000 You see what he sent out the other day where he's like, you know, Happy Easter to everybody, even the crazy radical left that's trying to destroy the country or whatever? 0.63

02:00:49.000 Oh my gosh.

02:00:49.000 Do you think he does voice-to-text?

02:00:52.000 I don't know. 0.98

02:00:53.000 I'll punch him in. 0.72

02:00:54.000 I think he does voice-to-text. 0.90

02:00:55.000 I feel like he does a lot.

02:00:56.000 He's holding his phone up and he's going, Happy Easter to all of the crazy! 0.97

02:01:00.000 To all of the crazy! 0.96

02:01:03.000 Just like Tim does. 0.69

02:01:04.000 Dude, is that why he talks the way he does?

02:01:07.000 Because he kind of talks like someone who's doing text-to-speech.

02:01:10.000 The way he enunciates his syllables.

02:01:12.000 The reason for this thing is Like it is kind of how you talk when you're trying to make sure the smartphone gets you right.

02:01:18.000 I'm talking to a second pair.

02:01:19.000 You're sitting there like, what's going on?

02:01:21.000 OK.

02:01:21.000 He's pergues like he has the perfect cadence for text to speech or speech to text.

02:01:25.000 Holy cow, I just noticed that.

02:01:28.000 Boot or pack.

02:01:30.000 Boost-er-pack.

02:01:31.000 Boost-er-pack.

02:01:31.000 Says, Tim, it's 1971.

02:01:33.000 You're the proud owner of the first ever Federal Reserve note you borrowed at 2% interest.

02:01:37.000 But if you are the sole owner of the note, how do you pay back the 2% interest?

02:01:41.000 Well, borrow more, of course.

02:01:42.000 That's the way the system works.

02:01:43.000 Welcome to the Ponzi scheme.

02:01:45.000 Yeah, well, as long as they have the guns.

02:01:47.000 You guys are too cynical.

02:01:48.000 Federal Reserve is great.

02:01:49.000 Our monetary policy is perfect.

02:01:52.000 Stop it now, boys.

02:01:53.000 So Frito says, are you going to make TimCast.com an app?

02:01:56.000 Yes!

02:01:57.000 So the first thing is the new and improved website.

02:02:00.000 People are never happy.

02:02:00.000 And then we're going to make an app where you should be able to play things with the phone off.

02:02:05.000 You can turn it on, press play, and put it in your pocket.

02:02:09.000 I don't think you can do it with the website unless you have a browser or something.

02:02:12.000 I don't know if we can do it through a website.

02:02:14.000 But you should be able to do it with the app once we get the app going.

02:02:17.000 You know, look, the website was, I don't want to say it was delayed a little bit.

02:02:21.000 We were optimistic, but we decided to be less optimistic in terms of launch because we have to make sure all the members port over properly and then nobody gets an issue with logins.

02:02:30.000 Assume that when something's getting developed, it's going to take three times longer, three to four times longer than you expect.

02:02:36.000 I know that's a little extreme, but with modern tech, if you're up against these big guys, Uh, three to four times longer.

02:02:44.000 Is this, is this true?

02:02:45.000 Someone get a calculator.

02:02:46.000 Howdy Hay says, when you divide, when you divide 2020 by 666.

02:02:51.000 Oh, I'm not doing this.

02:02:51.000 I don't care what it is.

02:02:52.000 It's going to be, it's going to be three something.

02:02:54.000 You get 30330.

02:02:54.000 Oh, wrong!

02:02:54.000 30330.

02:02:54.000 Oh no!

02:02:55.000 Is that true?

02:02:56.000 Yes, you do.

02:02:57.000 I just did it.

02:02:58.000 I just did it.

02:02:58.000 That proves it!

02:02:59.000 30330.

02:02:59.000 What does that mean?

02:03:00.000 Go to 30330.

02:03:00.000 That's Joe Biden's text number.

02:03:03.000 Oh, inductive.

02:03:03.000 30330 30330 Joe Biden's text number

02:03:08.000 When you divide 20 I'm sorry, commenter, I'm sorry I wrote you off.

02:03:14.000 3-0!

02:03:16.000 3-3-0!

02:03:17.000 6-6-6!

02:03:17.000 Oh, man.

02:03:20.000 All right, let's do a couple more.

02:03:22.000 It was 20-20.

02:03:23.000 Garhent says, the new Dune movie is woke, so get ready for The Last Jedi all over again.

02:03:27.000 No, no, no!

02:03:28.000 I can see Paul saying, the sandworm suffered oppression, and we are on the sandworm's lands.

02:03:35.000 Oh, I hope he's joking.

02:03:36.000 Are you joking?

02:03:37.000 It doesn't come out until October.

02:03:40.000 Steven Clyde says, Seamus, when are you going to do another collaboration with Eric July?

02:03:45.000 That's a good question.

02:03:46.000 I love working with Eric.

02:03:47.000 Every time I need a voice, I hit him up.

02:03:48.000 He's really busy, so sometimes it's hard to get a hold of him, but he's usually pretty cool about doing things when we're able to sync up.

02:03:56.000 Yeah, I would love to just... Because the thing is, like, he and I, when we collaborate, it's never like this planned thing where we're like, we need to collab on something.

02:04:02.000 It's usually I'm just like, I have a cartoon, which I would like a voice for.

02:04:06.000 Eric, can you do this voice?

02:04:06.000 Because he always does a fantastic job.

02:04:08.000 I mean, he hits it out of the park.

02:04:09.000 So yeah, Eric, he's really funny.

02:04:11.000 He's really funny.

02:04:12.000 His delivery's fantastic every time.

02:04:15.000 The racism explained video.

02:04:17.000 I remember I wrote that script and I was like happy with the script, but then I was looking back and I was like, ah, maybe it's not that great.

02:04:23.000 But when I got his audio for it, I was like, this is so funny.

02:04:26.000 Like his delivery just makes it every time I've ever had him do a voice.

02:04:30.000 He's just crushed it.

02:04:31.000 So yeah, I want to use him as often as possible, but he's just, he's too good for me now.

02:04:36.000 No, I'm kidding.

02:04:36.000 I don't even want, I don't even want fake beef.

02:04:38.000 I love, I love Eric.

02:04:39.000 He's doing really well and good for him.

02:04:40.000 He should be.

02:04:41.000 Yeah, no, we'll do something again soon.

02:04:44.000 I'll hit him up right now.

02:04:45.000 Eric, let's collab this instant.

02:04:49.000 All right, let's just do, uh, we'll do one more.

02:04:51.000 Alexander Skrpeci says, in my department, we were trained to put the leg-knee across one shoulder blade on a downward angle so not to damage the spine at the neck.

02:05:02.000 Very interesting.

02:05:03.000 That makes a lot of sense.

02:05:04.000 Yeah.

02:05:05.000 Well, ladies and gentlemen, smash that like button if you haven't already, and I guess- 50,000 likes or I delete my channel.

02:05:14.000 We're at 16,000, so.

02:05:43.000 That I can't say on YouTube.

02:05:46.000 I'm gonna grill him about religion.

02:05:47.000 God.

02:05:48.000 Jesus.

02:05:49.000 The Jesuits.

02:05:50.000 Oh man, I'm not going there.

02:05:51.000 The Catholics.

02:05:51.000 I want to know it all.

02:05:55.000 So listen, if you go, you can see it's like an hour long.

02:05:57.000 We did like an hour, didn't we?

02:05:58.000 Yeah, we did.

02:07:25.000 Yeah, I got an extra chair.

02:07:26.000 Luke, Luke abandoned us.

02:07:28.000 Luke, one day he was just like, I'm gonna, I'm gonna go.

02:07:31.000 I'll be right back.

02:07:33.000 He went to go to the bathroom and then you're like, where did he go?

02:07:37.000 He said he had to go get a pack of cigarettes.

02:07:38.000 And then we never saw him!

02:07:41.000 He just left!

02:07:44.000 I'm looking forward to Luke's return.

02:07:47.000 You better come back here, Luke.

02:07:48.000 He's like, I'm just gonna go to the store real quick with all of my stuff.

02:07:51.000 He's got Luke's stuff to do, you know?

02:07:56.000 I wanted just to shout out my website, iancrossland.net.

02:09:02.000 As a matter of opinion, I will never do TimCast again.

02:09:06.000 I love it.

02:09:07.000 And then yeah, there's me in the corner.

02:09:09.000 I am similarly excited about reaching a million.

02:09:11.000 I think I've been the most excited because I've been worrying about this since Christmas.

02:09:14.000 I was like, this is all I want for Christmas is a million subscribers.

02:09:17.000 We didn't hit that goal.

02:09:18.000 It's coming up soon.

02:09:19.000 Easter time, whatever the next holiday is.

02:09:21.000 Anyway, I'm Sour Patch Lids on Twitter and Mines and Real Sour Patch Lids on Gab and Instagram!

02:09:25.000 People are saying Luke is in the chat.

02:09:27.000 Luke is in the chat!

02:09:27.000 Get out of my chat!

02:09:28.000 We need to give him a special flair.

02:09:30.000 He's been lurking.

02:09:30.000 Get out of my chat!

02:09:31.000 He's watching the show and he's like... Hey!

02:09:33.000 Hey! 0.99

02:09:34.000 Go to wearechange.org, is it?

02:09:36.000 Yeah, but he abandoned his responsibility, so he's in the show.

02:09:38.000 Yeah, we can't get him out.

02:09:39.000 He's a pariah.

02:09:41.000 Thebestpoliticalt-shirts.com, is that...?

02:09:43.000 Yeah, I think that's it.

02:09:44.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
