Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Twitter NUKES Antifa FINALLY After They Smash Democrat HQ w- Matt Braynard

00:00:00.000 you you

00:00:57.000 Joe Biden.

00:01:01.000 Joe Biden's America.

00:01:03.000 You know, they said that in Trump's America, Antifa was running rampant and there was nothing we could do to stop it.

00:01:09.000 The media in Trump's America was defending Antifa, saying that they were just peaceful protesters.

00:01:16.000 That news you heard about destruction and vandals and right-wing conspiracy theories.

00:01:23.000 While there are some violent people, the protests were overwhelmingly peaceful.

00:01:28.000 And then something happened.

00:01:29.000 Joe Biden became president, inherited this American problem.

00:01:34.000 And I guess now Antifa is wreaking havoc in Joe Biden's America one day.

00:01:38.000 Not even one day.

00:01:40.000 It's the inauguration day.

00:01:41.000 They went out and they smashed up the Democrat headquarters.

00:01:44.000 I think it was in Portland.

00:01:46.000 Among other protests, burning American flags, trashing things in Seattle.

00:01:50.000 And the internet lit up.

00:01:52.000 Ragging on Joe Biden.

00:01:54.000 And then something kind of hilarious happened.

00:01:58.000 Twitter has banned several high-profile Antifa-related accounts.

00:02:03.000 Finally.

00:02:04.000 Yeah, after all of these years, the years spent of complaining about left-wing extremists and terrorists organizing on their platform and them doing nothing, as soon as it's a problem for Joe Biden, Gone.

00:02:17.000 Wonderful.

00:02:18.000 So we're gonna talk a bit about this stuff.

00:02:20.000 We've got some other stories.

00:02:22.000 In the same vein, there's this think tank guy who tweeted a disparaging comment about Mike Pence.

00:02:30.000 Well, I shouldn't say disparaging.

00:02:31.000 He tweeted that he should be... I don't know.

00:02:33.000 I won't even get into it.

00:02:33.000 He was bordering on threats of violence.

00:02:36.000 He lost his job now.

00:02:38.000 So it's funny how we're making it this far into the double standard now applying to the left.

00:02:44.000 But it's all in the benefit of them.

00:02:45.000 So we're going to go through these stories.

00:02:47.000 Joining us today, we've got Matt Brainerd.

00:02:49.000 Matt, do you want to introduce yourself?

00:02:51.000 Explain who you are, what you do?

00:02:52.000 Sure.

00:02:53.000 Well, I'm probably best known as the former director of data and strategy for President Trump's campaign in 2016.

00:03:00.000 I lead Look Ahead America, a 5-1-C-3 dedicated to registering, educating, and turning out to vote disaffected patriotic Americans, as well as fighting for election reform and against corporate censorship.

00:03:13.000 And most recently, I led the Voter Integrity Project, which brought me here last time, so I'm very glad to be a return guest.

00:03:19.000 Right on, right on.

00:03:20.000 Lugarkowski is here, peddling t-shirts.

00:03:22.000 Howdy! 0.99

00:03:22.000 I am your friendly parking lot dweller and, as you mentioned, very humble t-shirt vendor that sells all the shirts that he always wears. 0.99

00:03:32.000 How pathetic am I? 0.53

00:03:33.000 We have a bedroom here for Luke. 0.98

00:03:36.000 He doesn't want it.

00:03:37.000 So when he's like, I live in a parking lot, he's choosing to do this.

00:03:40.000 I'm a poor man.

00:03:41.000 Help.

00:03:43.000 Give me your monies.

00:03:44.000 Go now on thebestpoliticalshirts.com or we are change.org forward slash shirts, whatever it is.

00:03:51.000 That is a pretty good shirt you got there, to be honest.

00:03:53.000 We have the guerrilla shirt.

00:03:54.000 It's just not political at all.

00:03:55.000 And I don't think our shirts are ever going to be really political.

00:03:57.000 They might just be, like, jokey, you know, maybe cultural, but it's pretty good.

00:04:01.000 He doesn't have enough room for all of the news bureaus there that could be listed.

00:04:06.000 I know, it should be like a NASCAR suit, to be honest with you.

00:04:09.000 Because Vox is not on there.

00:04:11.000 I haven't checked it.

00:04:12.000 Nope, not Vox.

00:04:14.000 Oh, man.

00:04:15.000 Is Washington Post?

00:04:17.000 We'll make another shirt, don't worry.

00:04:19.000 We'll make a full shirt.

00:04:20.000 No, this is my next shirt.

00:04:21.000 My next shirt is going to be a NASCAR with all the corporate mainstream media logos in it.

00:04:26.000 It's going to say corporate sellout right here.

00:04:27.000 I love it.

00:04:28.000 I'm going to write that down so I don't forget it.

00:04:30.000 I get a cut of that, right?

00:04:31.000 Yes, 5%.

00:04:33.000 Yes, I am a gorilla.

00:04:36.000 At least a descendant of one or we have a similar ancestor, I believe.

00:04:38.000 I am the token liberal on the show, and I have smoked EMT.

00:04:43.000 I don't think you're a liberal, bro.

00:04:44.000 No, but I'm the token liberal on the show, but I'm not liberal.

00:04:47.000 Undercover liberal.

00:04:49.000 Undercover conservative?

00:04:50.000 You're definitely not a liberal.

00:04:52.000 Liberals are in a weird space.

00:04:53.000 Nah, I think you gotta be liberal and conservative if you wanna live a balanced life.

00:04:57.000 Just in the right time, you know?

00:04:59.000 Sometimes you wanna be conservative, sometimes you wanna be liberal about changing something.

00:05:03.000 Sometimes you wanna make sure something doesn't change, like conservation.

00:05:06.000 It's true.

00:05:06.000 I am in the corner.

00:05:08.000 I do press all the buttons.

00:05:09.000 I'm wearing glasses tonight.

00:05:10.000 Here's Tim.

00:05:10.000 Yikes.

00:05:10.000 pressing all the buttons.

00:05:11.000 I am in the corner.

00:05:12.000 I do press all the buttons.

00:05:13.000 I'm wearing glasses tonight.

00:05:14.000 Here's Tim.

00:05:15.000 There's so much news.

00:05:16.000 We also have Rachel Maddow crying because Joe Biden won and Andrew Sullivan also crying.

00:05:21.000 Who are these people who started crying when Joe Biden became president?

00:05:26.000 They cried when Trump became president and they cried when Trump left the presidency?

00:05:30.000 It's like they'll cry for anything, man.

00:05:32.000 You know what's funny?

00:05:32.000 I once read that men cry once a month and women cry six times a month.

00:05:37.000 But I gotta be honest, I can't remember the last time I cried.

00:05:40.000 I don't know.

00:05:40.000 Maybe I'm just a cold-hearted dark villain with no... Do you want to cry?

00:05:47.000 Nah, I got nothing to cry over.

00:05:48.000 Yeah, I think six is a little low, too.

00:05:50.000 Depends on the woman. 1.00

00:05:51.000 Let's put it that way.

00:05:53.000 Well, Rachel Maddow, I think, does cry a lot.

00:05:54.000 And I mean that... I'm not saying that to be like, haha, she cries a lot.

00:05:56.000 No, she really does.

00:05:57.000 When the Mueller report, you know, came out that Trump wasn't, you know, colluding with the Russians, she was like, fighting back tears, and that was really weird.

00:06:04.000 I've noticed if I fast, I'm more likely to cry, like, more in touch with my emotions.

00:06:08.000 I can get to crying quicker.

00:06:10.000 More in touch, though, but not in control of?

00:06:13.000 I don't know.

00:06:13.000 Like, I could make myself cry.

00:06:14.000 It's easier to feel things.

00:06:16.000 You know, it's like an acting technique.

00:06:17.000 Yeah, it's an acting technique.

00:06:18.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:06:19.000 You know?

00:06:20.000 Or I could just, like, not.

00:06:21.000 Anyway, they cried, so we've got a bunch of stories to go through, and this guy lost his job, and it's crazy, and, you know, Antifa getting banned.

00:06:28.000 Before we get started, head over to TimCast.com, my friends, and become members to help support the show.

00:06:33.000 We are trying to build up a strong backbone, a user base, a membership that will protect us from censorship.

00:06:40.000 If we get nuked across the board, like many channels have, then we're gone.

00:06:43.000 But, if you go to TimCast.com and you sign up, and we have a decent amount of subscribers, we can keep doing the show forever.

00:06:49.000 And I guess, you know, there's always the possibility they ban my website outright, but that seems really, really unlikely.

00:06:55.000 We got a post up the other night, I don't know if you saw, you know, we were yelling about whether or not Trump is truly corrupt.

00:07:01.000 And so we actually did another 20 or so minutes, just about 20 minutes, and it's a members-only post, and we're all basically yelling at each other, and it's good fun.

00:07:09.000 And that's at TimCast.com.

00:07:10.000 A lot of people have mentioned they're having trouble with signing up.

00:07:13.000 Just email members at TimCast.com, and we are getting it all fixed for everybody.

00:07:18.000 The site is new, and there is a, I think, it's a third-party problem, so we have to, like, do some kind of plug-in or integration.

00:07:26.000 It's certain email addresses for whatever reason, but TimCast.com, become a member, and it is greatly, greatly appreciated.

00:07:30.000 Don't forget to like, Subscribe, notification bell, and share this with your friends, because that's the real way we win.

00:07:35.000 But let's get to the news.

00:07:37.000 Most of you may have seen the reports from Reuters this morning.

00:07:40.000 Anti-fascist protesters vandalize buildings in Portland and Seattle.

00:07:44.000 They report, anti-government and anti-fascist protesters in Portland and Seattle vandalized a Democratic Party office and other buildings and scuffled with police on Wednesday, protesting against President Joe Biden's inauguration.

00:07:58.000 People dressed in black and with their faces covered broke windows in the glass door at the Democratic Party of Oregon business office in Portland.

00:08:04.000 Spray painting an anarchist symbol over the party sign.

00:08:07.000 Video posted on social media showed.

00:08:09.000 We don't want Biden.

00:08:10.000 We want revenge for police murders, imperialist wars, and fascist massacres.

00:08:15.000 Red A banner they marched under.

00:08:17.000 The new Democratic president was sworn in on Wednesday, urging unity and restoration after Republican Donald Trump's divisive tenure.

00:08:25.000 Donald Trump was so divisive when, you know, Joe Biden started his presidency by saying this country is being torn apart by white supremacists and nativists and sounded an awful lot like he was calling the other half of the country deplorables, if you know what I mean.

00:08:41.000 So spare me this rhetoric about, you know, Biden being the one who truly does want unity.

00:08:44.000 I'll respect him trying to tone things down.

00:08:47.000 But at least I can say this.

00:08:49.000 He used and abused and is tossing out Antifa.

00:08:52.000 The Democrats defended him.

00:08:54.000 What was that meme you mentioned, Luke?

00:08:55.000 In Toy Story, there's a scene where the toys are being thrown out, and right now there's a meme going around with the toys being BLM and Antifa, and the big, you know, the child in there being, of course, Joe Biden, throwing them away. 0.96

00:09:08.000 Throw him in the garbage.

00:09:09.000 The real test though is when and if these Antifa members get arrested, is his campaign 0.99

00:09:13.000 going to continue to bail them out of prison?

00:09:15.000 Because that's how you really know if he's done with them or not.

00:09:17.000 Yes, because Kamala Harris also was raising funds for a lot of the rioters that broke 0.81

00:09:23.000 the law.

00:09:24.000 And also what's really interesting is, you know, we had the mainstream media hyperbolically

00:09:27.000 screaming about the potential violence at all the 50 capitals.

00:09:31.000 That's coming our way!

00:09:33.000 They were screaming about it at the highest decibel of annoyance possible.

00:09:38.000 But now, we do have violence, but there's a different kind of violence that just gets totally swept under the rug.

00:09:43.000 No one's talking about this.

00:09:45.000 Like, what's going on here? 0.96

00:09:46.000 It's ridiculous. 0.99

00:09:47.000 Conservatives? 0.97

00:09:49.000 are aware of the double standard.

00:09:50.000 And I'm sorry, but saying there's a double standard is pointless right now.

00:09:55.000 And the Republicans are more than happy to stand to stand to attention for the Democrats to help them pretend to provide balance to their agenda.

00:10:05.000 So Mitch McConnell with his, you know, turtle smile.

00:10:08.000 Well, I'm totally grateful for Joe Biden.

00:10:10.000 And there you go.

00:10:11.000 That's it.

00:10:12.000 He stands up.

00:10:12.000 He claps and cheers.

00:10:14.000 All these Republicans are clapping and cheering.

00:10:15.000 Yay, the Democrats won.

00:10:16.000 And there's no one actually fighting for conservatives.

00:10:20.000 No, maybe a couple people.

00:10:22.000 And it's not even necessarily conservatives, but like just against the left, you have this faux resistance.

00:10:28.000 So what's happening now, in my opinion, And it could have gone either way, you know.

00:10:32.000 I thought Joe Biden was going to throw them a little bit more red meat, maybe throw them a bone to placate them. 0.99

00:10:37.000 But I guess these people just want chaos.

00:10:40.000 So it's really funny because when we saw them destroying the windows at the Democratic Party HQ, these viral videos on Twitter, someone tweeted that it was just like what the U.S.

00:10:49.000 normally does, funding terrorists in the Middle East who then eventually turn on us and start causing damage to, right?

00:10:56.000 Isn't that funny?

00:10:57.000 So the Mujahideen, for instance, and then al-Qaeda.

00:10:59.000 So they get these Antifa people to go around smashing everything up, and they say, oh no, look at Trump's America!

00:11:06.000 And now that it's Biden's America, and they go around smashing things up, it's like, it's their fault.

00:11:11.000 There was tear gas deployed in major U.S.

00:11:14.000 cities because of it.

00:11:15.000 This was Joe Biden's Gestapo stomping out anti-racist and pro-freedom protesters.

00:11:23.000 Anti-fascists.

00:11:24.000 Anti-fascists.

00:11:25.000 They were just trying to help.

00:11:26.000 And Joe Biden's Gestapo stomped them out.

00:11:29.000 Which is, again, a 180-degree turn from where we were six months ago, where Tom Cotton wrote a New York Times editorial piece talking about how we need to send in the military to deal with Black Lives Matter.

00:11:42.000 Huge controversy.

00:11:43.000 The New York Times editor got fired because of allowing an opinion piece.

00:11:48.000 Forced to resign.

00:11:49.000 Yes.

00:11:49.000 Or I should say, he resigned in shame.

00:11:52.000 As I say, potato, potato.

00:11:54.000 You know what went on.

00:11:55.000 You know what happened there.

00:11:56.000 And now it's a big controversy.

00:11:59.000 It's not even talked about, but I remember seeing one of the Antifa signs saying, we don't want a Biden administration.

00:12:06.000 We want vengeance.

00:12:07.000 Yes.

00:12:08.000 I have a picture, I believe.

00:12:08.000 Yes.

00:12:09.000 And it's a pretty visceral picture, but people need to understand the larger base of Antifa are not big Biden supporters.

00:12:16.000 I don't think they ever were in the first place.

00:12:19.000 They weren't.

00:12:20.000 And so this is one of the issues I had with high-profile conservative personalities that would say, like, Antifa is the militant wing of the Democrat Party.

00:12:27.000 And I'm like, nah, they hate Democrats. 0.91

00:12:30.000 And they will punch a liberal in the face. 0.86

00:12:32.000 But Democrats were eager to defend them as long as they were making Trump look bad. 1.00

00:12:35.000 So crazy. 0.94

00:12:36.000 Yep.

00:12:37.000 Dangerous, too.

00:12:38.000 Well, what are they going to do?

00:12:39.000 Look at the Middle East with Obama and ISIS.

00:12:42.000 It's perfectly on brand.

00:12:46.000 There you go.

00:12:47.000 Yeah, it's exactly their game.

00:12:48.000 Like when you use an evil demon to corrupt your file.

00:12:52.000 I'm sorry.

00:12:52.000 I just saw this.

00:12:54.000 We are ungovernable.

00:12:56.000 Literally.

00:12:57.000 Technically correct.

00:12:59.000 You know what I think? 0.97

00:13:00.000 There's anarchists like these people who are more like some kind of rabid skunk. 0.98

00:13:08.000 You're like, you know, because the Kongs are like all black, you know what I mean? 1.00

00:13:10.000 Like, and they're wearing all black.

00:13:11.000 And then they like, they run around and you can't do anything with them because they're rabid.

00:13:14.000 And that's the kind of anarchist they are.

00:13:16.000 And you have people like Luke, who are like, I would like to use Bitcoin to buy guns.

00:13:20.000 And that's the other kind of anarchist, I guess.

00:13:22.000 Non-aggression principle.

00:13:23.000 And allowing people to, you know, transact peacefully in a way that benefits them without transgressing on anyone's personal liberty or sovereignty or freedom.

00:13:31.000 Did I say buy Bitcoin with guns?

00:13:33.000 Because I guess that would still work.

00:13:34.000 Yeah.

00:13:35.000 Yeah.

00:13:35.000 Here's a gun.

00:13:36.000 One Bitcoin, please.

00:13:37.000 He would do that.

00:13:38.000 That has happened.

00:13:39.000 There's many interesting aggregate, aggregate transactions that happen.

00:13:43.000 I guess you'd be selling the gun for Bitcoin.

00:13:45.000 It's a common transaction in Galt's Gulch.

00:13:48.000 Happens all the time.

00:13:51.000 Yeah.

00:13:51.000 We don't want Biden.

00:13:52.000 We want revenge for police murders, imperialist wars, and fascist massacres.

00:13:57.000 And you know, if you ask them, they probably can't tell you what that means.

00:14:00.000 Yeah.

00:14:00.000 Somebody made a statement.

00:14:02.000 Most of those people are foot soldiers, just enraged.

00:14:05.000 Angry because they're not making any money.

00:14:06.000 They can see the economy spiraling out of control.

00:14:08.000 And that's about the level of their- They can't see the economy, dude.

00:14:11.000 I think they can see it, but they don't understand it.

00:14:12.000 No, no, no.

00:14:13.000 They want money printed.

00:14:14.000 They're the ones who are like, print more money and give it to us!

00:14:18.000 But prices are going up.

00:14:19.000 Like, everyone sees that.

00:14:20.000 Yeah, but it's because of them.

00:14:22.000 It's because, it's like, could you imagine someone being like, we should put peanut butter in the gas tank, and you're like, that'll break the car, and when the car breaks, more peanut butter!

00:14:30.000 The car is breaking, I'm so angry!

00:14:31.000 And you're like, you put peanut butter in the gas tank, dude!

00:14:34.000 The machine doesn't work that way!

00:14:35.000 But also, another interesting facet to understand here, you know, they're gonna eat their own.

00:14:40.000 They're gonna be fighting each other, as I was saying, you know, a long time on this show, but another one is, you know, a lot of them think that they were promised police reform.

00:14:48.000 And that's nowhere to be seen a part of this new Biden administration.

00:14:52.000 Not that I've seen.

00:14:53.000 I haven't seen any clutter or conversations or talk about any kind of reforming of the police or authorities and that's kind of their main... Dude, they put the militant prosecutor in as VP.

00:15:03.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:15:05.000 They put 25,000 troops in DC.

00:15:09.000 They started putting up thank you police officer signs all over DC.

00:15:12.000 Didn't Pelosi want a quote crew manned machine guns?

00:15:17.000 Crew manned machine guns.

00:15:19.000 Isn't that gendered language? 1.00

00:15:22.000 In that situation, it was threatening to them, right?

00:15:25.000 But what this Justice Department is more than likely going to be doing is going to your neighborhood police departments and hitting them with lawsuits because there are allegations of somebody getting mistreated when the cop was just doing his own job.

00:15:36.000 So that's a real fear in terms of how they're going to affect policing where you live in your neighborhoods by interfering with the way your local police operations are.

00:15:44.000 And also with the Attorney General.

00:15:46.000 Right.

00:15:46.000 We recently saw in New York with the Attorney General actually going after the NYPD for their handling of BLM protesters.

00:15:53.000 So, that's another case that's happening.

00:15:56.000 They exacerbated the problem.

00:15:58.000 A problem that, I mean, Luke, you and I have been complaining about for a decade now.

00:16:02.000 Since back when the Black Bloc anarchist types were going around smashing stuff, there was a moment where a dude was stalking me, and then physically attacked me, and Luke grabbed his mask, Well, me and Matt intervened because I saw him kind of going after you and I was like, OK, let me stay close to Tim because I see they're going to try to attack him. 0.85

00:16:18.000 And that's when they kind of jumped at you for live streaming behind you.

00:16:22.000 And as soon as they got behind you, me and Matt kind of jumped in and, you know, took care of that situation.

00:16:26.000 Nine years ago.

00:16:27.000 Nine years ago.

00:16:28.000 And I mean, what else did people expect?

00:16:31.000 If you if you normalize violence politically, what did you think was going to happen?

00:16:36.000 And now the Democrats, the Bidens, they have a huge Huge, huge situation that's very explosive right in their hands that they cultivated themselves.

00:16:46.000 Let's jump to the story you mentioned, Luke.

00:16:48.000 We got it from the Daily Caller.

00:16:50.000 Ken Cuccinelli claims Pelosi asked for crew-manned machine guns in Washington.

00:16:56.000 I believe it.

00:16:58.000 I kind of believe it.

00:16:59.000 But let's read.

00:17:00.000 Acting Deputy Homeland Security Secretary Ken Cuccinelli told Fox News the story Tuesday that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi asked for crew-manned machine guns to be part of security forces in Washington, D.C., ahead of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration.

00:17:14.000 Cuccinelli and anchor Martha McCallum were discussing the presence of 25,000 National Guard troops in the nation's capital after pro-Trump rioters stormed the U.S.

00:17:23.000 Capitol building January 6.

00:17:25.000 A division, Cuccinelli said, responding to McCallum's assertion that the number of troops is greater than the number in Afghanistan and Iraq.

00:17:31.000 You have a division.

00:17:32.000 The last up of thousands of these troops was requested by the Speaker through the Capitol Police.

00:17:38.000 She even wanted crew-manned machine guns in Washington. 0.96

00:17:42.000 That was rejected because there's simply no use for that in a security arrangement for a civilian undertaking.

00:17:49.000 Just... So some of this has gone beyond any legitimate security need.

00:17:54.000 Cuccinelli defended the troops as disciplined and professional, and said they will perform as expected, but added that the state capitol buildings are also important to defend.

00:18:02.000 The world is not about Washington, he said.

00:18:04.000 It's supposed to be about everywhere else, which is what the Department of Homeland Security tries to keep secure.

00:18:09.000 The acting DHS Deputy Secretary confirmed that threats of individual attacks in different places are also absolutely a problem, before criticizing those who focus only on D.C.

00:18:18.000 He says at the same time, where was the concern for the rest of America?

00:18:21.000 Congressmen aren't more important than any other American.

00:18:24.000 It's a good point.

00:18:25.000 And everyone in this country should be kept safe, and that's what the Department of Homeland Security has endeavored to do through this entire difficult year.

00:18:32.000 Crew-manned machine guns.

00:18:33.000 What would that be like?

00:18:34.000 Full-auto 50 BMG?

00:18:36.000 It's a team where one's holding it and the other one has to carry the ammo and make sure it doesn't get jammed.

00:18:41.000 Oh, the belt.

00:18:42.000 Yeah, the belt feeder.

00:18:42.000 Would that be 50 BMG?

00:18:45.000 I like to imagine they were like mounting 50 BMG just like like like Nancy Pelosi wanted just like to like if a human being gets hit by one of those things they explode right?

00:18:59.000 I wouldn't want to see that.

00:19:01.000 I think a lot of soldiers have PTSD because of that.

00:19:04.000 Dark humor.

00:19:05.000 But I want to make a point.

00:19:06.000 I'm just trying to drive home how insane it sounds.

00:19:09.000 But here's the thing.

00:19:10.000 In 2017, when there were thousands of people in DC riding and smashing everything and starting

00:19:16.000 fires, they organized that protest for Hillary Clinton, not for Donald Trump.

00:19:20.000 The original plan was that Hillary Clinton was going to be inaugurated and they were going to go and riot. 0.65

00:19:25.000 Trump won and they said, well, we're still going to riot.

00:19:28.000 So I wonder if the real fear here wasn't the specter of the far right, which typically doesn't do anything, but that they knew, like we saw in Portland and Seattle and Denver and a few other places, Antifa would have come out in DC and destroyed everything were it not for the National Guard.

00:19:44.000 Yep.

00:19:44.000 And I remember being there in DC.

00:19:46.000 You were there too.

00:19:46.000 I think we all got pepper sprayed.

00:19:49.000 I was temporarily arrested and then talked my way out of it with my press credentials.

00:19:53.000 But it was a wild, crazy day with a lot of property destruction.

00:19:56.000 We were walking down the street during the riot.

00:19:58.000 Well, we were running with the riot.

00:20:00.000 And then the police set up a line.

00:20:02.000 You charged through it.

00:20:03.000 Yes.

00:20:04.000 Getting pepper sprayed heavily. They sprayed you like they sprayed you look at the faces. He ran through the line

00:20:08.000 Yeah, and then I went into the doorway of this building and then because this is how it works

00:20:13.000 Everyone followed me and so then I was smashed up against the door by a bunch of antifa and they weren't and some of

00:20:18.000 the People are nice. They gave me the milk of magnesia or

00:20:20.000 whatever may locks for my for the pepper spray I I was told three times by the little supervisor that I

00:20:26.000 was arrested and not free to go. Yeah But eventually, a local news crew, their boss had called saying, you better not arrest our crew.

00:20:34.000 So when he pulled out this crew, I reminded the lieutenant that, I was like, hey, I talked to you, look, here's my press card.

00:20:39.000 And he was like, come on.

00:20:40.000 And a bunch of journalists got pulled out.

00:20:41.000 Now here's the funny thing about this. 0.94

00:20:43.000 I get pulled out and I tweet just got arrested they released me before you know being taken I was there for like an hour or two and some other journalists did get arrested and they were so mad they were tweeting like I got arrested I'm like dude one guy was screaming at the top of his lungs at the cops You mother heifer! 0.81

00:21:01.000 You can't arrest me!

00:21:02.000 And I was like, I'm terribly sorry, officer.

00:21:04.000 I'm a journalist.

00:21:05.000 Do your job.

00:21:06.000 Here's my press card.

00:21:06.000 Just come and talk to me when you get a chance.

00:21:08.000 And that was it.

00:21:09.000 I remember seeing the kettle, and I'm like, oh my god, they're going to arrest everyone.

00:21:12.000 And there was a wall of pepper spray, and they were spraying it.

00:21:15.000 And I was like, I'm just going to run right through it.

00:21:17.000 I got hit really hard.

00:21:18.000 There was another female reporter who just made up and said, I'm pregnant! 1.00

00:21:21.000 I'm pregnant!

00:21:22.000 I was like, I'm going, I'm going through this.

00:21:24.000 And then luckily they pulled her out.

00:21:26.000 But back to the point of machine guns that Nancy Pelosi wants. 0.99

00:21:30.000 She's essentially saying protection for me, but not for thee.

00:21:35.000 These are anti-gun, anti-second amendment individuals who don't believe in you having the right for personal protection, but they want machine guns for themselves.

00:21:44.000 Are you kidding me?

00:21:46.000 You've got the NFA.

00:21:47.000 You can't make, how does it work?

00:21:49.000 You can't make a machine gun.

00:21:51.000 You can't have a, you could only have machine guns within a certain year.

00:21:55.000 So, so pretty much machine guns are only available for the super rich that could afford them because there's a limited supply within a certain year that you can, uh, it could, could have them.

00:22:04.000 So they're grandfathered in there's few remaining, uh, and the few that are, are only available to people who could spend 20, 30, 40, $50,000 on them.

00:22:11.000 Or the military.

00:22:11.000 Yes.

00:22:14.000 So Nancy Pelosi is leading the charge to take away your right to have this protection, but she wants, of all things, if she said, I would like the National Guard to be armed with assault rifles, I'd be like, yeah, well, of course the politicians get to carry guns, the politicians get to have security, but she... 0.95

00:22:30.000 Well, but think about it.

00:22:31.000 Crew-manned machine guns is above and beyond.

00:22:33.000 But they're impractical.

00:22:34.000 When you're talking about crew-manned machine guns during inaugurations, during big events where there's crowds, this is the least tactical weapon that you could have, especially in big cities with big crowds, because you're gonna mow down a whole bunch of innocent civilians standing in the way that don't deserve to be killed. 1.00

00:22:50.000 It's just absolutely illogical and stupid thinking by Nancy Pelosi. 0.99

00:22:55.000 It's because they don't understand that full-auto isn't Tactical. 0.99

00:22:59.000 They think we have to ban full, semi-automatic weapons, which for one, they've actually said that means nothing.

00:23:04.000 When they say, I remember at the March for Our Lives, people were like, you know, no one needs a fully automatic weapon, and I'd tell them, like, well, you can't buy one.

00:23:12.000 And nobody has one except for, like, these really rare grandfathered and old machine guns.

00:23:16.000 And it's never used in a crime here.

00:23:17.000 Yeah, nobody's carrying around a light machine gun in their truck or whatever to, like, it's a movie or something.

00:23:23.000 But that's what these people think.

00:23:25.000 So here's what people don't realize.

00:23:27.000 Now, I'm sure people can correct me if I'm wrong, but what you should be worried about, my understanding is that a semi-auto is actually way more dangerous than a full-auto for a deranged killer.

00:23:37.000 Because they'll spray off all their ammo and miss, and then click, click, click.

00:23:40.000 Whereas with semi-auto, they can go one, two, very, you know, calm and precise.

00:23:45.000 More importantly, when you have the military, it's sometimes better to do semi-auto or burst fire than full-auto.

00:23:52.000 Nancy Pelosi saying crewman to machine guns shows they don't actually know how to operate a weapon, and what kind of weapon you would need for this certain circumstance.

00:24:02.000 So she should never be president.

00:24:04.000 She doesn't understand military.

00:24:05.000 She wanted the DOD, was it, to go do a coup against Trump like two weeks ago?

00:24:11.000 She asked them to strip Trump from the chain of command.

00:24:13.000 Well, she has no considerations for the citizens of Washington, D.C.

00:24:17.000 Think about it.

00:24:18.000 It's much more nefarious than that, I think.

00:24:21.000 Because this was in reaction to what happened on the 6th, okay?

00:24:25.000 Say what you will about the 6th, but we're in a country here where pretty much anybody can get a firearm.

00:24:30.000 Pretty much anybody can get an AR, an assault weapon, anything like that.

00:24:34.000 I don't remember seeing a whole lot of protesters brandishing, much less firing, firearms on the 6th.

00:24:41.000 So if this was a preparation for a reaction similar, this reaction was in preparation for what they saw on the 6th, which she's calling for is automatic military weapons to be used on an unarmed population.

00:24:53.000 This is what she thinks of the country, of the people, of the citizens.

00:24:57.000 She is content with having .50 caliber military grade weapons aimed at them and ready to go. 0.74

00:25:02.000 Well, we added the .50 caliber part.

00:25:04.000 Oh, okay.

00:25:05.000 All right.

00:25:06.000 You're right.

00:25:07.000 You got me.

00:25:08.000 Belt-fed crewman machine guns.

00:25:10.000 Guns that require multiple people to operate them.

00:25:12.000 Let's go with that.

00:25:14.000 That's what she thinks of us in the country.

00:25:17.000 I'm surprised she didn't set up landmines all over the Capitol building. 0.98

00:25:20.000 I mean, it would make more sense with, you know, actual tactical defensive positioning rather than mowing people down with automatic machine guns.

00:25:29.000 Beyond the people, could you imagine?

00:25:31.000 Look, look.

00:25:32.000 I've been to Ukraine.

00:25:33.000 I know I mention Ukraine a lot because it's a place I've been to.

00:25:35.000 And there are still buildings riddled with bullet holes from World War II and Cold War conflict.

00:25:41.000 And so I'm walking down the street.

00:25:42.000 We went to the mall to get food.

00:25:44.000 And then my friend is like, oh, look at that building.

00:25:46.000 See all those holes?

00:25:47.000 Yeah, that's machine gun fire.

00:25:48.000 And I'm like, they never fixed it?

00:25:49.000 No.

00:25:50.000 I'm like, wow.

00:25:51.000 I mean, it's a poor country.

00:25:52.000 So they're kind of just like, eh, what are we going to do about it?

00:25:54.000 Right.

00:25:54.000 And remember, under her leadership and the leadership of her party, we had members of in our Navy, in hostile ports being ordered not to be armed, not to have ammunition in their firearms, taking their naval vessels into hostile ports, and they were attacked and many of them died from that.

00:26:09.000 Yet here at this inauguration, she wants... What's the situation with the naval?

00:26:15.000 I haven't heard of this.

00:26:15.000 What happened?

00:26:15.000 Oh, yeah, it was under the previous Democrat administration.

00:26:18.000 They were prevented from having armed weapons as they went into several, you know, hostile ports.

00:26:25.000 And there was one case where that actually ended up, an attack ship came in, they weren't able to respond to it, and it detonated and killed a bunch of American sailors.

00:26:33.000 Do you know where that was?

00:26:35.000 I'm sure we can Google it or look it up.

00:26:36.000 I can't recall.

00:26:37.000 It's somewhere in the Middle East.

00:26:38.000 That was that was Pelosi's Well, that was when she was in Congress and her Democratic Party's leadership.

00:26:44.000 They had the White House at the time.

00:26:48.000 There you go.

00:26:49.000 You can see what these politicians think of the people and what they would do to them.

00:26:52.000 But that's a good point, man.

00:26:54.000 The people who stormed the Capitol, many of them were just bewildered and befuddled walking into open doors.

00:26:59.000 Some of them were violent and aggressive, but I think the worst we saw was crowbars.

00:27:04.000 Well, I think there was one video with one guy brandishing what looked like a firearm within his shirt, but I don't think he took it out and was waving it around, but I think it's fair to say that the magnitude of the threat was widely exaggerated for political purposes and political powers, and also for the media for ratings, views, clicks, with their kind of fear-mongering sensationalism that drove the headlines in, and now we have some violence happening.

00:27:28.000 They don't care about it because it's the wrong people protesting.

00:27:33.000 Joe Biden was made to look really bad today, alright?

00:27:37.000 When Antifa was trending on Twitter in Seattle and Portland.

00:27:40.000 And, well, they had to take action.

00:27:43.000 So we got this tweet from Andy Ngo.

00:27:44.000 Breaking!

00:27:45.000 Twitter has suspended several prominent Antifa accounts.

00:27:49.000 The Base Brooklyn is one of them.

00:27:51.000 The Base is an extremist bookstore in Brooklyn, New York that has been used as an Antifa training center.

00:27:55.000 16,800 followers.

00:27:59.000 Gone.

00:27:59.000 We also have MFGM, the Jewish Worker, 30,000 followers, gone.

00:28:05.000 Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement, 11,400 followers, gone.

00:28:10.000 And Rev Abolition NYC, gone.

00:28:12.000 And I think these are just a few that Andy has highlighted.

00:28:14.000 I'm sure there's a lot more.

00:28:15.000 And this is, well, like we mentioned earlier, they're throwing away what they don't need anymore.

00:28:20.000 It's making them look bad.

00:28:21.000 They need to get rid of it.

00:28:22.000 And you know what?

00:28:24.000 I'll say this.

00:28:26.000 If they were advocating violence, if they were organizing violence, ban them. 0.99

00:28:30.000 Get rid of them. 1.00

00:28:31.000 If they were just tweeting stupid opinions, then I still think the censorship is bad. 1.00

00:28:35.000 I don't care if it's the left or the right, but you know when the biggest problems with all this censorship stuff is? 0.99

00:28:40.000 There's a left-wing podcast that got nuked on YouTube.

00:28:43.000 I'm not gonna name them.

00:28:44.000 And immediately, you know what I see?

00:28:46.000 I see the libertarians, I see the free speech advocates, the anti-SJWs, all defending them, saying, hey, hey, reinstate them. 1.00

00:28:52.000 But then what happens when it's a, you know, Count Dankula gets mass demonetized?

00:28:56.000 They go, ha ha ha, serves you right, but my private business.

00:29:00.000 That's a problem.

00:29:01.000 When you get a person like Count Dankula who will act with honor and integrity and stand up for principle and his adversaries will not, we are all at a disadvantage when we're fair and respect people and their rights to free speech.

00:29:16.000 That being said, these people I believe were pro- I wouldn't be surprised if they were organizing actual violence.

00:29:22.000 You know, they like to point to right-wingers and they say, I see this on Reddit all the time, well maybe you shouldn't send death threats to people and they wouldn't have deleted Parler!

00:29:29.000 And it's like, dude, there was I think 60 posts out of hundreds of thousands just in like an hour period that were violent.

00:29:38.000 Or, I'm sorry, I should say, there were probably millions of posts, and 60 altogether that were considered to be, like, harsh death threats.

00:29:44.000 So they nuked the entire company.

00:29:46.000 Come on, man, that doesn't make sense.

00:29:48.000 Twitter is loaded with extremist propaganda and calls for violence, and it's protected.

00:29:53.000 So, if you were to tell me that people on Parler were sending, you know, death threats or whatever, I'd be like, oh yeah, it's a good thing they were banning them.

00:29:58.000 But that's not everybody.

00:29:59.000 And if you tell me Antifa was doing it, I'd be like, yeah, oh, are they gonna ban them?

00:30:02.000 And then they're gonna cry foul, and they're gonna start saying, we're the free speech activists who defend our free speech.

00:30:07.000 The one thing I really love about all this stuff is when I see the tweets on the leftist and they're like, we're all the free speech warriors now to complain about the censorship of those criticizing Israel.

00:30:17.000 And I'm like, bro, we've all been defending your free speech to the entire time.

00:30:23.000 And when it happens, we always speak up about it.

00:30:25.000 And then when it happens to us, they laugh.

00:30:28.000 So what do you do?

00:30:30.000 I even remember arguing with them years ago when people were being banned, independent media, people on the right, and they were celebrating it.

00:30:38.000 I'm like, you guys don't understand.

00:30:40.000 The hammer is going to come after you very, very soon.

00:30:44.000 Here it is.

00:30:45.000 It's only going to get worse.

00:30:46.000 And this is what happens when you cheer on for a few small, select individuals to have the ultimate power of controlling speech.

00:30:56.000 It's a huge power.

00:30:57.000 It's going to be used and abused.

00:30:58.000 If you're standing in the way of the cogs of the machines, if you're not in the right position, if you're not reiterating the right talking points at the right time, you're going to be axed no matter who you are, and it's coming everywhere.

00:31:09.000 I think it was Glenn Greenwald who said it best.

00:31:11.000 I think it's his quote, that if there's any group of people that fails to learn from past mistakes, it's liberals advocating for censorship, because it always recoils back on them.

00:31:22.000 And it's true for Antifa now, getting nuked.

00:31:24.000 They were all cheering for it.

00:31:25.000 Well, goodbye. 0.95

00:31:26.000 When you talk about censorship and Antifa violence, it's like a demon that is like, free me, and I will destroy your enemies.

00:31:33.000 You're like, all you have to do is release me from these chains.

00:31:37.000 Trust me.

00:31:38.000 And you're like, that's Mark Zuckerberg. 1.00

00:31:40.000 And then you release the demon, he kills your enemies, and then he tries, and then he kills you. 1.00

00:31:43.000 Thank you, idiot. 1.00

00:31:46.000 You ever see Aladdin, when Jafar wishes he's a genie? 1.00

00:31:49.000 And then they did the...

00:31:52.000 The part two for, like, Straight to Home DVD.

00:31:53.000 Jafar's a genie now, and he's like, wish me free.

00:31:55.000 It's like, yeah, you're evil, and if we unleash this, you're gonna hurt everybody.

00:32:00.000 But you know what, man?

00:32:01.000 Some people don't care.

00:32:01.000 Or they don't know.

00:32:03.000 They're ignorant. 1.00

00:32:04.000 You know what it is? 1.00

00:32:04.000 It's the One Ring. 1.00

00:32:06.000 I've been watching a lot of Lord of the Rings lately.

00:32:08.000 Antifa was Boromir, right? 0.71

00:32:10.000 And he's like, censorship is a gift!

00:32:13.000 We should wield it against our enemies!

00:32:14.000 You can't control it!

00:32:16.000 No one can!

00:32:17.000 That's exactly what happened, and they didn't get it.

00:32:19.000 And now they're getting it.

00:32:20.000 Nuked. 0.97

00:32:21.000 But I think a lot of them is ignorance.

00:32:22.000 So we can, you know, just spread the knowledge about the dangerous censorship.

00:32:25.000 That helps a lot.

00:32:26.000 Not everyone's malicious.

00:32:28.000 Well, I saw a cartoon today where it's four guys in a boat and two guys are on one end bailing the boat out because there's a leak at the other end.

00:32:36.000 And the other two guys at the other end of the boat are like, haha, well, I'm glad, you know, this isn't affecting us.

00:32:40.000 Oh, because it's raised up, right?

00:32:42.000 Yeah, they're like floating in the boat, sinking.

00:32:44.000 Yeah.

00:32:44.000 Yeah, that's the world they seek to create.

00:32:47.000 But I'll tell you what's interesting about this.

00:32:49.000 So I'll just show you this real quick.

00:32:51.000 This is literally what Antifa is doing today.

00:32:54.000 You know, we mentioned this in the previous segment.

00:32:56.000 We don't want Biden.

00:32:57.000 We want revenge.

00:32:59.000 And there's what looks like... Is that an AK?

00:33:02.000 Yeah, it looks like an AK.

00:33:03.000 I could be wrong.

00:33:05.000 But the organization The Base is based in New York.

00:33:09.000 They have a public-facing website.

00:33:10.000 All its information is readily available in public.

00:33:12.000 They have their open hours.

00:33:14.000 They say The Base is an anarchist political center in Bushwick, Brooklyn, committed to the dissemination of revolutionary left and anarchist ideas and organizing.

00:33:21.000 Now on their website it's very, you know, innocuous, right?

00:33:25.000 Well, Project Veritas actually did an expose.

00:33:28.000 I don't know if I actually have the full expose.

00:33:31.000 Well, here's an opinion piece about it or something.

00:33:33.000 Where they had footage from inside where they were doing combat training, basically.

00:33:38.000 You know, self-defense training.

00:33:39.000 You're allowed to do self-defense training.

00:33:41.000 Totally acceptable. I took a Kung Fu class once.

00:33:44.000 That's right, I did. We had to fight with the sticks. It was really cool.

00:33:47.000 A long time ago.

00:33:47.000 Boken?

00:33:48.000 No, no, no.

00:33:50.000 It's called something else because there's two of them and you hold them like that.

00:33:52.000 And we did this, like, they do this really fast, you know, fighting stuff.

00:33:55.000 So that's fine.

00:33:57.000 But there is an issue when you've got advocacy for violence, when you've got evidence that these groups in New York have been violent, and they're teaching people about revolutionary ideas.

00:34:08.000 And they hold extremist views, and then they train for violence.

00:34:11.000 You add all those things together, and I wouldn't be surprised if they're posting really, really bad stuff.

00:34:16.000 It's gonna get them banned. 1.00

00:34:16.000 Wouldn't it be good, though, if we knew what they posted that they got banned for? 1.00

00:34:20.000 Yeah.

00:34:21.000 Maybe it was innocuous, maybe it was something that crosses the line.

00:34:25.000 I mean, we have no idea.

00:34:27.000 It's always the mystery with these guys.

00:34:29.000 There's no transparency in the banning process.

00:34:31.000 And that is a problem, and that's why I typically am opposed to it no matter what.

00:34:36.000 But I guess you gotta draw the line if they're saying like, go do a thing, you know what I mean?

00:34:40.000 Sure.

00:34:40.000 But we should at least know what they said, and to have full transparency and accountability from these big tech networks that are literally having the most important power in the world destroying anything that could be made up.

00:34:56.000 It's such a catch 20.

00:34:57.000 I don't know if it's a catch 22 or it's just a hard situation because if they said something that's going to radicalize people, they want to prevent people from seeing it.

00:35:06.000 But if they prevent people from seeing it, then we can't verify that what they did was wrong.

00:35:11.000 Exactly.

00:35:12.000 The problem is that they shouldn't get to choose what is going to radicalize someone.

00:35:16.000 Every idea should be held equally valid unless it's explicitly calling for violence against someone.

00:35:22.000 So every idea should be out there.

00:35:24.000 And if it was actually calling for violence, that's not actually legally protected speech either.

00:35:29.000 I mean, because the law is pretty clear.

00:35:31.000 In fact, actually, if I can jump in here and say something about this problem, I actually came here tonight with the solution to this problem.

00:35:40.000 A solution.

00:35:41.000 A solution to tech censorship.

00:35:42.000 We don't talk about that.

00:35:44.000 All we do is complain.

00:35:45.000 I agree with you.

00:35:46.000 It's much easier to complain, but I have the solution.

00:35:49.000 I brought it with me to tech censorship, to de-platforming, to getting blacklisted by financial firms, and it's very simple.

00:35:56.000 We have to sort of look, where do we have strength still?

00:35:59.000 Because, you know, the Senate's gone, the House is gone, it's in the control of progressives.

00:36:04.000 we don't know where the Supreme Court is, but where we still have a lot of allies and people

00:36:08.000 supporting us, in fact, in the majority of the state legislatures.

00:36:10.000 So I believe that the solution is state-level state legislation that prevents the state

00:36:16.000 and any government within the state, that's counties, cities, etc., from engaging in business

00:36:22.000 with the social networks that censor, with tech companies that de-platform, with financial

00:36:28.000 institutions that blacklist people.

00:36:31.000 Because, look, we kind of agree, we're all on the side that it's your company, you run the social network, you can decide who's on it and who isn't, right?

00:36:37.000 But you're not entitled to tax money paid by people who you are de-platforming, whom you're getting fired, whom you're throwing off your service and blacklisting and taking away their bank accounts.

00:36:49.000 So the solution is for citizens, you guys out there, to lobby your state legislatures to say we're not going to give any business to any one of these companies that does this.

00:36:58.000 We're going to divest our pension funds or any day funds from companies that engage in this behavior.

00:37:03.000 And either, if you're going to get a government contract, you're going to embrace the First Amendment and you're not going to de-platform people for legal speech, constitutionally protected, political activity or gain full employment.

00:37:17.000 So the way to get where we're going is basically to get these state governments on board.

00:37:21.000 And one of two things is going to happen, okay?

00:37:23.000 One, two, three, five states agree to this type of legislation.

00:37:27.000 Either the Amazons, the Twitters, the Facebooks are going to say, okay, okay, we are not going

00:37:32.000 to censure legal speech. 0.58

00:37:33.000 Or they're going to say, ah, screw you guys, we're going to do what we want.

00:37:36.000 And suddenly there's a space for companies that do embrace that to go after those government contracts, to go after that money, and that's how we create this parallel, alternate ecosystem of financial companies, social media, and technical companies who embrace the First Amendment.

00:37:53.000 These government contracts would be the seed money to create this ecosystem.

00:37:56.000 So basically, the bottom line is the state of South Carolina, Texas, Oklahoma, all these states where we could potentially pass this legislation, say to Amazon, to Twitter, to Facebook, look, you're not getting another penny from us.

00:38:08.000 Or to Citibank, you're not going to kick these people off your platform because you disagree with their political ideas and continue to do business with us.

00:38:15.000 So they'll have to make a choice.

00:38:16.000 And them saying no creates a space for these new companies to emerge that do embrace the First Amendment.

00:38:21.000 What kind of money do states send the way of Amazon and Facebook?

00:38:27.000 Well, marketing budgets is one thing on The Socialist.

00:38:29.000 Now, that's not particularly huge, but what is much more significant is their pension funds and rainy day funds being invested in these companies, as well as so many government services are dependent on contractors that use services like Amazon Web Services and those other companies that discriminate, that kick parlor off, right?

00:38:47.000 So, you know, if just South Carolina or just Oklahoma did it, maybe it wouldn't get their attention, but you get, like, half the states in the country doing it.

00:38:54.000 Those are billions and billions and billions of dollars that either they're going to have to change their policies to accept or give up, and that becomes the fuel for their new competitors who embrace the First Amendment to get that seed money so they can grow and compete against them.

00:39:08.000 And look, like I said, they're entitled to run their platforms, I suppose, how they want, but they're not entitled to tax dollars paid for by me, whose rights they're denying, whose rights of free expression and political activity and gainful employment they're denying.

00:39:22.000 So this is how we fight back.

00:39:23.000 And I guess I'm going to plug this, but look ahead, America, we're going to train people next Wednesday online, as many as 3,000 people on how to do grassroots lobbying, how to lobby your legislature to get them to pass legislation like this that says, look, Facebook may kick you off, but they're not going to get in your tax money for advertising or marketing.

00:39:43.000 AWS may kick your parlor off, but they're not going to get any contracts for running the state's Medicare and Medicaid programs if they're going to de-platform you.

00:39:51.000 So the moment there is a legitimate legal challenge saying I was unjustly removed from this platform due to my protected speech, then the state seizes all contracts and tax expenditures going to these companies.

00:40:03.000 Well, it'll be like a year period where they get to disentangle from any entity that does not agree to basically allow people to have free speech, free legal speech without censoring it.

00:40:14.000 And there's, you know, every state has its different legal peculiarities, but we have like, these are the policy objectives.

00:40:21.000 Very clear and simple.

00:40:22.000 You get a state legislature to turn them into the state's legislative council.

00:40:26.000 It becomes legislation.

00:40:27.000 It goes through hearings, amendments, etc.

00:40:29.000 But this is how we fight back.

00:40:32.000 Why don't we just have the state legislatures pass laws saying you can't ban people for illegal speech?

00:40:37.000 They tried that in Florida, I believe.

00:40:38.000 It didn't go anywhere.

00:40:39.000 But why not just actually get it done?

00:40:41.000 Because this is, I think, easier because the state can control who it does contracts with.

00:40:46.000 You may recall the state of California banned all travel to other states that did not support bathroom laws.

00:40:52.000 The federal government and other states also have riders for all their contracts that force them to accept rules that are not part of civil rights legislation but sort of extend it.

00:41:02.000 So this is common in government contracting and a very powerful tool for reform.

00:41:07.000 And it's just a lot easier than saying, hey, social networks can't ban it, because then

00:41:11.000 it becomes a federal matter, whereas the states control who they're going to spend with and

00:41:14.000 who they're not going to spend with.

00:41:15.000 Yeah, we saw Poland recently propose legislation that would heavily fine social media companies

00:41:20.000 for censoring legal speech.

00:41:23.000 So that's also another aspect of it.

00:41:25.000 But this is interesting, because many Silicon Valley companies are looking to leave California,

00:41:30.000 that tax-filled, amazing place that has a lot of homeless people.

00:41:36.000 Because of the unlivable conditions, these companies are looking to reposition themselves.

00:41:41.000 So this could be an opportunity to have local jurisdictions kind of step up and I mean, do you have high hopes of this being able to be organized?

00:41:51.000 And what other ties do local jurisdictions have with big tech that could be affected here?

00:41:57.000 Look, all of these big tech companies have offices in every state capital.

00:42:02.000 Why?

00:42:03.000 It's because they're going after state government contracts.

00:42:06.000 These are hundreds of billions of trillions of dollars in state, city, county spending.

00:42:11.000 And this matters.

00:42:12.000 And again, it's going to have one of two outcomes.

00:42:15.000 Either they're going to forego billions of dollars in revenue, billions of dollars that will instead go to their competitors, brand new competitors, which they hate and fear.

00:42:25.000 Or they're going to have to relent and say, okay, we're going to permit legal speech.

00:42:27.000 We're not going to kick people off our platform for You know, you've got banks saying that we're going to stop doing business with firearms manufacturers and, you know, if it's your thing, you know, marijuana farms, right?

00:42:36.000 Because, well, this would prevent that.

00:42:38.000 Or at least say the state is not going to accept payments from these banks or do transactions through these banks if they ban legal... It's very simple, whereas when you start banning, like, the behavior, or say a social network can't ban legal speech, you get into interstate commerce issues and, you know, maybe that company's located in another state, you're going to cut off internet traffic, it becomes very complicated.

00:42:57.000 Whereas this is a very clean cut and I have high hopes because look, we've got a lot of people with a lot of energy who want to do something and want to make a difference and are fed up with this problem.

00:43:06.000 Becoming a grassroots lobbyist, becoming an activist, this is what the left has done for so long and they've had tremendous success with it because they were patient with themselves, the time it took, and because they were determined they didn't give up.

00:43:19.000 I know that there are at least a third to half of the states in this country that would eagerly pass some form of this legislation.

00:43:27.000 It's just that it has to get pushed.

00:43:29.000 And nothing moves in politics unless it's pushed.

00:43:31.000 So it's dependent on these folks out here to allow my organization, Look Ahead America, to organize them, to guide them, and to train them on how to do this and how to actually make it happen.

00:43:42.000 Because we can talk all day about all the problems in the world But we've got enough talkers.

00:43:46.000 Tim does a great job.

00:43:47.000 We don't need more talkers.

00:43:49.000 We need more doers.

00:43:50.000 We need more people doing it and lobbying the state legislature and getting in their faces on it.

00:43:54.000 And the one thing that we're trying to do especially is building culture.

00:43:57.000 So I've often talked about I'm just a guy complaining on the internet.

00:44:01.000 And so that's why for a while we've been talking about doing this vlog where we'll start actually doing things.

00:44:06.000 And that's why we're working on TimCast.com, because I'm like, I can't just keep sitting here complaining on YouTube.

00:44:10.000 It's ridiculous.

00:44:11.000 It's okay to be a talker sometimes. 0.96

00:44:13.000 But there's gotta be balance.

00:44:14.000 We need talkers.

00:44:14.000 There's balance, right?

00:44:15.000 There is a balance.

00:44:16.000 So it's gonna be yin-yang. 0.84

00:44:17.000 We're gonna do the stuff where we're like, this is bad stuff, and then we're gonna be like, let's make things, and have fun, and inspire people to do stuff, and get them into... You know, I'll put it this way.

00:44:26.000 We talk about it all the time.

00:44:28.000 The left will play video games and they'll livestream.

00:44:30.000 Twitch.

00:44:30.000 They go on Twitch, they'll play video games.

00:44:32.000 Which I'm doing later tonight, by the way.

00:44:33.000 But I'll talk more about it later.

00:44:35.000 While they're playing video games, and these young people are watching Minecraft or whatever, they're talking leftist politics.

00:44:41.000 And it works.

00:44:42.000 That I won't be doing.

00:44:43.000 Because Twitch is dominated by the left, they ban people for even a moderate opinion.

00:44:49.000 You're gone.

00:44:50.000 So what we need is, we need young people who are looking at cool, interesting things, getting cheered on.

00:44:56.000 Be it skateboarding or music or, you know, firing guns at the range.

00:44:59.000 Just fun stuff.

00:45:00.000 Demolition ranch style stuff.

00:45:02.000 The kids get excited by it.

00:45:03.000 And then, you know, what do they see in the background?

00:45:05.000 A Gadsden flag.

00:45:07.000 So then when they try and claim the Gazan flag is a symbol of white supremacy, they go, Nuh-uh, that skateboarder guy's got one of those.

00:45:12.000 That's crazy.

00:45:14.000 I won't believe it.

00:45:14.000 I like that guy, he's cool.

00:45:16.000 When they tried claiming that PewDiePie was a white supremacist or whatever, cause he said some stupid words and made some stupid jokes, all these kids were like, no he's not, you're lying! 1.00

00:45:24.000 And then all of a sudden you have these little kids who are like, the media's lying. 1.00

00:45:28.000 They're lies.

00:45:28.000 And then I remember the story, Jake Tapper said his son calls him fake news.

00:45:33.000 But think about how powerful that is.

00:45:34.000 They realized this.

00:45:35.000 This freaked them out.

00:45:37.000 And then all of a sudden the censorship went nuts because it was several years ago.

00:45:41.000 Jake Tapper said, when my kid gets mad at me, he calls me fake news.

00:45:45.000 Wow.

00:45:45.000 Where does that kid hear that from?

00:45:46.000 Yeah.

00:45:47.000 He heard it from the likes of PewDiePie.

00:45:48.000 They went after PewDiePie hard.

00:45:50.000 He heard it on YouTube.

00:45:51.000 They started going after YouTubers and purging these channels and getting rid of them.

00:45:54.000 So, you gotta find a way to share your ideas, have them be peripheral to what you do, but inspire and create.

00:46:01.000 And then, honestly, what you're talking about as well.

00:46:04.000 The legislative angle.

00:46:05.000 But I will say, as much as I think you are 100% correct and people need to focus on that too, one of the problems I think is conservatives go at a legislative angle.

00:46:13.000 Whereas the left owns the culture.

00:46:15.000 And then because they own the culture, the kids grow up and they're always left.

00:46:19.000 Now, Gen Z is the first generation to be slightly more right than the previous generations. 0.98

00:46:25.000 Yeah, it's because of the internet.

00:46:26.000 Hollywood is very left.

00:46:27.000 I was in that.

00:46:28.000 But it's not because of the internet.

00:46:29.000 It's a big part of YouTube.

00:46:31.000 We balanced it out a lot.

00:46:32.000 It was very far left in the 90s and early 2000s.

00:46:35.000 But it's not because of the internet.

00:46:36.000 This is actually really obvious.

00:46:39.000 In the 2000s, there were several studies done on the political ideology and children.

00:46:44.000 And they found that conservatives were having 2.01 children, and liberals were having 1.7 children.

00:46:51.000 What happens when you add 20 years from when those studies were done?

00:46:55.000 You now have the next generation, Gen Z, leaning a little bit more conservative.

00:46:58.000 Why?

00:46:59.000 Conservatives had kids more often than liberals did.

00:47:02.000 It's actually very, very simple.

00:47:04.000 Now, YouTube, Internet, all that stuff plays a role, for sure.

00:47:07.000 If you're not inspiring young people, then you end up with kids snitching on their parents because their parents were seen at, you know, the Capitol or whatever, which is what happened.

00:47:15.000 And, like, a liberal dad doesn't necessarily have a liberal kid, like Tapper, for instance.

00:47:19.000 Super liberal.

00:47:19.000 His kid's apparently not, it sounds like, awakened.

00:47:23.000 So I found Hollywood-dominated culture in the 90s, 2000s, I mean, honestly, way back since the 30s.

00:47:31.000 And they are just, you have to shut your mouth and play the game to live in that industry.

00:47:36.000 They will fire you in a heartbeat.

00:47:37.000 And as soon as the internet came around, I realized, dude, I can say whatever I want and I can make a living.

00:47:42.000 This is like next level.

00:47:45.000 I mean, that's why they went after PewDiePie and Joe Rogan and so many other kind of cultural institutions that weren't regurgitating their talking points and they were providing entertainment.

00:47:54.000 That wasn't propaganda, that wasn't brainwashing, that wasn't disinformation. 0.99

00:47:58.000 You turn on all the mainstream media crap, whether it's Hollywood, movies, TV series, there's so much subliminal trash and garbage and messaging in there that it's absolutely ridiculous. 1.00

00:48:08.000 It's unwatchable for people who know what's going on, who know the narrative, who know the agenda, who know the talking points, seeing it again and again portrayed in so many different ways. 0.98

00:48:17.000 It's essentially brainwashing according to a lot of individuals, especially when you look at the deeper involvement of the state with Hollywood and their active involvement with writing scripts.

00:48:28.000 It's a big game that they want to take out anyone who's not involved in it.

00:48:32.000 Like, I actually am the rare right-winger who has a Master in Fine Arts from Columbia University, and I can tell you that in my time there, the ideological persuasion of the vast majority of those who are far, far, far left, or don't really care about politics but go along to get along with the left, And you think about who's the producers, directors, writers, as you're saying, in Hollywood.

00:48:57.000 Almost every show you can get on Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, etc.

00:49:00.000 If you look at those writers, they look at middle America, patriotic America, and they look at it with disgust and disdain.

00:49:08.000 And I would say almost a hatred.

00:49:11.000 And that's who, basically, anytime you put your kid in front of the television, that's who's feeding them.

00:49:14.000 And, you know, this is why I think there's a shift is because you know who's really competing with Netflix right now and, you know, mainstream channels on television and primetime TV is video games.

00:49:28.000 It's Call of Duty, it's Twitch streamers.

00:49:30.000 That's the competition, and that's an environment that doesn't lend itself so easily to subtle left-wing manipulation and cultural brainwashing.

00:49:38.000 Twitch is dominated entirely by far, far left hardcore tankies and full-blown communists.

00:49:44.000 And if you look at the previous Call of Duty, not this one that just came out, the previous one had so much crazy, insane Russian propaganda, Syrian chemical warfare, and WMDs, all of it pushing, of course, the mainline neoconservative messaging of, we need more war, we need to fight Russia, we need to stop Assad. 0.63

00:50:03.000 All of it was directly involved in it on such a sickening level.

00:50:06.000 It was crazy to watch.

00:50:08.000 I live-streamed that game because I was surprised to see all the pro-war messaging.

00:50:12.000 I want to make a point, though.

00:50:14.000 It's not quite as convincing and brainwashing as, say, any typical left-wing show in the 90s, if you're just sitting there shooting people in Call of Duty.

00:50:25.000 In Call of Duty, you literally were a child that was suffering a gas attack by the character that was clearly Bashar al-Assad, and you were a child trying to sneak away from the Russians that were killing your mom in front of you.

00:50:40.000 So that type of level of propaganda Holy cow.

00:50:43.000 I mean, it has an impact on children who are just thrown.

00:50:46.000 Would you rather your child do that or watch, um, a gossip girl? 0.99

00:50:49.000 Well, games are more, more kind of immersive.

00:50:52.000 People put themselves in games and even put on diapers because they don't want to leave this, that kind of entertainment realm in Japan.

00:50:59.000 There's literally AA meetings in Japan against gaming.

00:51:03.000 Sure, sure, sure.

00:51:03.000 I got no problem with gaming, but you mentioned Twitch and I think I'm pretty sure the biggest Twitch streamer is like a hardcore socialist.

00:51:10.000 I guess I advocated for violence.

00:51:12.000 In a video game.

00:51:13.000 In a video game is what he does.

00:51:14.000 He'll be like, he'll literally call to action and go, in a video game.

00:51:19.000 Because he knows it's like, it's not a legal defense.

00:51:22.000 But he thinks it is!

00:51:23.000 And so- Like you guys should go fill in the blank?

00:51:25.000 We need to go do this right now!

00:51:27.000 In a video game!

00:51:28.000 Yeah.

00:51:29.000 Oh, wow.

00:51:29.000 It's insidious.

00:51:29.000 It doesn't work.

00:51:31.000 If they wanted to go after him, they would, but it's ridiculous. 0.90

00:51:34.000 I agree with you, Matt.

00:51:34.000 I think it's the movies and TV are uber brainwashing, and when the game, the gamer has control, there's no writer.

00:51:40.000 Like, the games have been written and do have a plot, and Call of Duty was extreme propaganda.

00:51:44.000 Especially the new one was extreme Russian hate propaganda.

00:51:47.000 It was crazy.

00:51:47.000 That's the new one, the one before the new one.

00:51:50.000 I haven't played the new one.

00:51:52.000 I stopped poisoning my mind with that content.

00:51:55.000 But most games are kind of...

00:51:57.000 Kind of neutral.

00:51:58.000 The platform, it's just a game.

00:51:59.000 The way you play them, it's mostly multiplayer.

00:52:02.000 I don't know, most games are pro-gun.

00:52:05.000 That's for sure. 0.99

00:52:07.000 First person shooter is a freaking genre. 0.96

00:52:10.000 It's not, that's not that first person shooter. 0.94

00:52:13.000 Do you remember that Christchurch shooting in, in what was it, New Zealand?

00:52:19.000 They were live streaming it with a head cam and then people like overlaid it and made it look like a doom game.

00:52:24.000 And like, we're getting kill counts and stuff.

00:52:26.000 That's messed up.

00:52:27.000 Yeah.

00:52:27.000 First person shooting is, is highly training us to become killers.

00:52:32.000 It sounds like we're gonna get a LAN party going here because we've got the desks.

00:52:36.000 Think about even going back to Mario.

00:52:39.000 Mario literally jumped on and crushed turtles with his feet.

00:52:43.000 And he ate mushrooms, bro!

00:52:45.000 And he punched bricks.

00:52:47.000 So there's like...

00:52:48.000 Video games, like violence, is a strong, strong component.

00:52:53.000 There was always a big push from leftists to make what they called walking simulators.

00:52:57.000 Games where the goal was not to do anything violent.

00:53:02.000 Because these SJWs were complaining, why is every video game going to be violent or whatever?

00:53:06.000 But I'll tell you.

00:53:07.000 These kids are growing up playing you name a video game and like most of the big ones are guns like destiny right here play destiny It's like you're a space guardian and guns you shoot aliens with guns lots of different kinds and rocket launchers and First-person shooters man, but also third-person shooters the division.

00:53:25.000 What's the cyberpunk?

00:53:26.000 It's all about beating I was playing Red Dead Redemption last night with Adam Kriegler.

00:53:31.000 Soy Jesus, shout out. 1.00

00:53:32.000 We'll be playing again later on tonight.

00:53:33.000 And I was like, after I got done playing, I was like, how come there are no Native Americans that just like attack you and that you just mow down? 1.00

00:53:41.000 And I think that they specifically chose, it's like the Old West, but they specifically chose not to introduce that kind of violence into the game.

00:53:49.000 There's a lot of violence in the game.

00:53:51.000 But there's no natives.

00:53:51.000 I haven't seen any natives.

00:53:52.000 You can like kill somebody and drag their body and hide it. 0.99

00:53:55.000 Just walk up to them.

00:53:56.000 I remember not so long ago, Republicans were trying to ban violent video games because they said it would spur on, you know, school shooters.

00:54:04.000 But there actually have been some studies citing how violent video games help people become less violent.

00:54:10.000 They vent.

00:54:11.000 Yeah, so they're able to vent and express themselves and do really silly things like they do in Grand Theft Auto.

00:54:17.000 And it usually, according to some studies, leads to more harm reduction.

00:54:22.000 They're kind of metaphors for aiming and throwing a ball at a moving target.

00:54:27.000 It doesn't have to be shooting and killing a human when you're attacking a character.

00:54:31.000 It's just more representative of building up your twitch skill, your ability to turn and fire.

00:54:37.000 Pulsefire?

00:54:37.000 There's no actions. I remember Penn and Teller's show BS on Showtime. I think it was Showtime.

00:54:43.000 They did why the idea that violent video games makes people more violent is total BS.

00:54:48.000 And they took this kid who was, I don't remember what video game he was playing, but he was like one of the top gamers

00:54:53.000 in a certain game.

00:54:54.000 And they gave him an actual pulse fire, you know, AR of some sort.

00:54:58.000 And he's this little kid. I don't know how he's like...

00:55:00.000 Pulse fire?

00:55:01.000 Yeah.

00:55:02.000 I gotta look that up.

00:55:03.000 Yeah, like, like, like, he fires three rounds with one trigger pull.

00:55:05.000 Burst fire.

00:55:06.000 Burst fire.

00:55:06.000 Sorry, sorry.

00:55:07.000 I'm thinking, I was playing Destiny and Destiny has pulse rifles.

00:55:09.000 I go, oh, they fire three.

00:55:10.000 Burst fire.

00:55:11.000 And the kid pulled the trigger one time and started crying.

00:55:14.000 And they were like, this kid plays video games all the time.

00:55:17.000 He's one of the best at this first person shooter.

00:55:19.000 And then they actually, you know, said, all right, let's see if you can, they wanted to see if the kid could actually hit the target.

00:55:24.000 If he was going to be accurate, more accurate, like the video games were training him.

00:55:27.000 And instead, he got shocked by the recoil and started crying.

00:55:31.000 Didn't that happen to a mainstream media journalist that went shooting for the first time?

00:55:35.000 And then he was shocked and scared.

00:55:37.000 Traumatized.

00:55:38.000 He got PTSD.

00:55:39.000 It's utterly insane.

00:55:40.000 What was he firing?

00:55:41.000 An AR.

00:55:42.000 Just an AR.

00:55:43.000 It's crazy because we were out in the range and we had a 556 and a 308 and we were all laughing.

00:55:51.000 Some little kid shows up with a mini-14 and he was way better than all of us.

00:55:55.000 How old was that kid?

00:55:56.000 Like 12?

00:55:56.000 I don't remember.

00:55:57.000 I wasn't there.

00:55:58.000 I was sleeping in.

00:55:58.000 I don't remember.

00:55:59.000 I wasn't there.

00:55:59.000 Yes, I'm like, oh man, none of you were there.

00:56:00.000 So it's like 12 year old kid shows up with his dad and his dad's training him.

00:56:03.000 And so they're doing, they're very precise.

00:56:06.000 And the kid was really, really great.

00:56:07.000 We're all having a good time.

00:56:08.000 I fired the 308 a couple of times.

00:56:10.000 We fired the 556. 1.00

00:56:11.000 And I was like, wow, that's impressive.

00:56:13.000 Then recently we fired some buckshot and some slugs and the recoil was way more.

00:56:19.000 So, and if this guy is gonna fire an AR, which I can imagine was probably like a 556.

00:56:24.000 And then claimed he got PTSD from it.

00:56:27.000 Heaven forbid the dude ever hunted a turkey because the game load in the 12 gauge has more recoil.

00:56:34.000 And this guy's like, I got PTSD from firing this way.

00:56:37.000 I feel like we're talking about two different types of mental brainwashing.

00:56:42.000 One is the actual physical act of killing, so it's like a violent movie or a violent video game.

00:56:48.000 The other is the propaganda aspect of the movie or the video game, like the writing of it.

00:56:54.000 I don't think that movies and video games both have that violent, like, action type thing.

00:56:58.000 What, the writing of a movie?

00:56:58.000 people at all. What the writing of a movie? No, no, no, that's different. What I'm saying

00:57:03.000 is we've seen studies that show violent video games don't make people more violent. It's

00:57:07.000 just not true. But you can make people like Luke was saying, you play as a small child

00:57:12.000 crawling away as Russians running into, for no reason. 1.00

00:57:15.000 Kill your family. 0.98

00:57:15.000 You don't think that there's something to, like, uh, what's the, what's the Grand Theft Auto pulling, just running up and pulling someone out of a car and throwing them down to, like, all this street violence these days? 0.98

00:57:24.000 No!

00:57:24.000 Has anyone ever done that?

00:57:25.000 No.

00:57:25.000 Well, there's all this street violence, like, unprecedented amounts of street violence in the United States in the last five years, six years.

00:57:31.000 No, that's actually not true.

00:57:32.000 Crime has been going way down until this past year.

00:57:35.000 Until, like, the last year.

00:57:36.000 Until COVID.

00:57:36.000 And then people are angry, pent up in their homes, and they go insane.

00:57:40.000 I don't know, man.

00:57:41.000 And police officers are stepping back a little bit.

00:57:44.000 Yeah.

00:57:44.000 To say that there's no connection between violent video games and violence, I think is extreme.

00:57:48.000 They've done studies.

00:57:49.000 Well, I've experienced it firsthand.

00:57:51.000 When I play a game, I start to think like the game.

00:57:53.000 When have you ever gotten out of your car and then just- I have self-control, but I've driven and thought like, ooh, there's a green van.

00:58:00.000 I want to pull the driver out of the driver's seat. 0.72

00:58:02.000 You realize that's you sounding crazy.

00:58:04.000 I'm a normal dude compared to some kids that don't know their parents.

00:58:07.000 That's not normal.

00:58:08.000 I've never wanted to get out of my car.

00:58:09.000 I was raised in a safe environment.

00:58:11.000 I've never wanted to get out of my car and just beat someone.

00:58:13.000 No, I didn't want to.

00:58:14.000 I had the impulse to do it.

00:58:15.000 I've never had an impulse to do that, bro.

00:58:17.000 Well, you don't play games as much as I do.

00:58:19.000 Dude, I used to play GTA all the time.

00:58:21.000 I used to play Destiny all the time.

00:58:22.000 Let me tell you what all the time means when you're talking about gaming.

00:58:24.000 Do you wake up at 8am and play until 7am?

00:58:26.000 Yes.

00:58:27.000 Five days in a row?

00:58:34.000 In his defense, I play one game, World of Warships, and I will confess that playing it has made me want to take a sailboat out.

00:58:44.000 You know what?

00:58:44.000 You're right.

00:58:45.000 I played Civilization and it made me want to build a space program to go to Mars.

00:58:48.000 Yeah, the space makes me want to build a space elevator.

00:58:51.000 I got the science victory in civilization and I was like, let's rally a nation of hundreds of millions.

00:58:55.000 I think that people that are disturbed are way more likely to commit violence anyway, whether or not they play a game.

00:59:02.000 I don't care about a couple of studies.

00:59:04.000 What?

00:59:05.000 What if some people are more suggestible than other people?

00:59:08.000 That's for sure.

00:59:09.000 And it's possible that we should take that into account.

00:59:12.000 Yeah.

00:59:12.000 And if certain people get a hold of those games, it could make them even training even crazier.

00:59:17.000 Here's the funny thing.

00:59:18.000 I just referenced there was a show from Penn & Teller where they debunked the whole thing, and Luke mentioned studies have already been done showing it's not true, and Ian's sitting here going, I don't care because I believe it is!

00:59:27.000 So you have a few studies.

00:59:28.000 And you have nothing!

00:59:29.000 You have literally nothing.

00:59:30.000 I have personal experience.

00:59:32.000 I watched them put the Doom overlay over the first person shooter, dude.

00:59:36.000 So you go crazy from playing games and other people don't.

00:59:39.000 No, I watched the Christchurch shooter with his first person camera on laughing like he's playing a game.

00:59:44.000 And people also taking the video and then making it into looking like a video game.

00:59:49.000 You have nothing to do with it.

00:59:51.000 You have nothing to back up anything you're saying, as per usual, and you think this justifies your position.

00:59:55.000 I would make a point, though, that you might actually agree with in the way that they do reduce it.

00:59:59.000 Because you think about where most crime happens.

01:00:02.000 It's in dense, urban areas.

01:00:06.000 That's where most of the crime takes place.

01:00:07.000 Because you take those parts of the country away from the United States, and we're the most peaceful country in the world.

01:00:11.000 You just subtract six cities, and we're the most peaceful place in the world.

01:00:14.000 So it's happening there.

01:00:15.000 So if you think about, well, crime occurs over a period of time, and it's when these individuals who are inclined to commit crime are inclined to commit it.

01:00:23.000 And they can be doing one of two things with their time.

01:00:25.000 This is kind of going back to the midnight basketball theory, right?

01:00:28.000 But I think it's a little bit more practical, is if you've got this video game that keeps you engaged and you're sitting around playing it for 12 hours a day because you're really not capable of doing anything else, if you're doing that instead of being out on the street actually doing the crimes, I think that in some ways it's kind of a palliative.

01:00:41.000 Yeah.

01:00:42.000 In those specific environments, not to get between your two argument, but I do think that if you've got something to keep people wrapped up and engaged, they're not actually out doing other things, which may include crimes.

01:00:51.000 Can I get a drumroll?

01:00:52.000 Can I get a drumroll?

01:00:53.000 Drumroll, please.

01:00:54.000 The Guardian.

01:00:55.000 We're going back into it.

01:00:56.000 The Guardian.

01:00:57.000 Playing video games doesn't lead to violent behavior.

01:00:59.000 Studies show.

01:01:00.000 The New York Times.

01:01:00.000 Video games aren't why shootings happen.

01:01:02.000 Politicians don't blame them. 0.94

01:01:03.000 Time Magazine.

01:01:04.000 No.

01:01:04.000 Video games don't cause mass shootings.

01:01:06.000 Now read the article that says the Russians are bad.

01:01:07.000 PBS.

01:01:08.000 Why it's time to stop blaming video games for real-world violence.

01:01:12.000 Entertainment Software Association.

01:01:13.000 Science says video games don't cause real-world violence.

01:01:16.000 There's five for you, Ian.

01:01:18.000 Okay.

01:01:19.000 So it's time to stop the witch hunt and the psychotic lie.

01:01:23.000 Dude, I don't dislike video games, man.

01:01:25.000 I wouldn't take them away from a kid, ever.

01:01:27.000 But I am acknowledging that there's something to, that we become what we do.

01:01:32.000 Is five not enough for you?

01:01:33.000 Is five?

01:01:34.000 I would ask Ian a question.

01:01:36.000 Who did the study?

01:01:36.000 How many people was in the study?

01:01:37.000 I would ask you a question though, is can you name a single mass shooter that was moved to do that by video games?

01:01:43.000 that said a video- well, I've never had a chance to talk to any mass shooters.

01:01:47.000 No, but usually, surely they talk about what the motive- the Christchurch shooter, his motivations were clearly articulated.

01:01:52.000 The Christchurch shooter's head cam, he wanted it to be a head cam on a GoPro so that you could see it, like, he wrote that he wanted to cause a civil war by using gun violence to incite the left to take guns away from right-wingers in the United States.

01:02:04.000 Right, so I'm just saying that if it really was causing a problem, you really would have this guy saying, well, I play GTA a lot, look like fun.

01:02:11.000 I want to try out for real.

01:02:12.000 I mean, maybe they're probably, I don't know if they're consciously, I don't know if people are always consciously aware.

01:02:16.000 Maybe they're not consciously aware.

01:02:18.000 Well, to me, the big, I mean, if we're going to make arguments about what causes violence, you know, we could bring up a lot of other things.

01:02:23.000 Lead in the air, fatherless homes, lack of proper, and I don't think video games necessarily cause, but maybe an exacerbated, uh, You should probably stop saying it.

01:02:37.000 You should probably stop saying it if you've not even read any of it.

01:02:38.000 CBS?

01:02:38.000 PBS?

01:02:39.000 The Guardian?

01:02:39.000 is the worst. If I'm going to pull up five articles just in a simple Google search in

01:02:43.000 ten seconds, you should probably stop saying it. You should pull up article titles. I mean,

01:02:45.000 read the articles. You should probably stop saying it if you've not even read any of it.

01:02:48.000 Dude, you pulled up like a CBS, is that what you said? PBS?

01:02:51.000 The Guardian, PBS. Yeah.

01:02:53.000 New York Times.

01:02:53.000 New York Times, Time Magazine, come on.

01:02:55.000 It's like mainstream.

01:02:56.000 I mean, okay, great.

01:02:57.000 Read the articles.

01:02:57.000 You're just giving me names.

01:02:58.000 And you've not read anything!

01:03:00.000 Dude, I've experienced it firsthand.

01:03:01.000 It's meaningless.

01:03:02.000 Maybe I can find a point of agreement between the two of you.

01:03:05.000 Ian, would you agree that the palliative benefit of violent video games being an outlet for maybe violent impulses that they take out in the game or take up time when they would ordinarily be out on the street committing such crimes outweighs any contributions videos may have to real world violence.

01:03:20.000 Yes.

01:03:20.000 And I think you would agree with that too, because you, of course you agree.

01:03:23.000 I think it's way more beneficial.

01:03:24.000 You have some common ground here, right?

01:03:26.000 Okay.

01:03:26.000 Yeah, but I'm not saying it has no negatives, but I, that's my point.

01:03:30.000 But you, do you both agree with the premise that I just laid out?

01:03:32.000 Definitely.

01:03:33.000 Okay.

01:03:33.000 The way that they help us, like, it helps me release tension and I gain self-esteem when I accomplish things.

01:03:39.000 So the net gain of it, you think the negative is far outweighed by the positive.

01:03:42.000 Correct.

01:03:42.000 And you think there's no negative.

01:03:44.000 So, okay, we have some common ground.

01:03:45.000 Good.

01:03:46.000 It's not that I think there's no negative.

01:03:47.000 It's that, over the past several... Now you think there's no negative?

01:03:51.000 There is negative.

01:03:52.000 No, no, no.

01:03:52.000 What I'm saying is, it's not about what I believe.

01:03:54.000 Okay.

01:03:54.000 You know what I believe?

01:03:55.000 I believe there are numerous scientific studies that have repeatedly debunked this for the past two decades.

01:03:59.000 And so, I'm not gonna... I personally am not telling you one or the other.

01:04:03.000 What I'm saying is, I just read five different headlines that asserted that.

01:04:07.000 Okay, great.

01:04:07.000 You reference studies, Tim.

01:04:08.000 And you've done that before, and there are studies that say fluoride's great for you.

01:04:11.000 There's lots of them.

01:04:12.000 that debunked the whole thing in the first place, citing numerous scientists and bringing

01:04:15.000 a kid out.

01:04:16.000 Okay, great.

01:04:17.000 You, you, you referenced studies, Tim, and you've done that before.

01:04:19.000 And there are studies that say fluoride is great for you.

01:04:22.000 And there's lots of them.

01:04:23.000 In fact, there's studies that say aspartame doesn't cause cancer.

01:04:25.000 And yes, they didn't do any more studies after that because aspartame companies didn't want

01:04:28.000 So you're a conspiracy theorist?

01:04:29.000 No.

01:04:30.000 I'm telling you, studies are not the end all. 0.98

01:04:33.000 Bro, you just told us that you get impulses but you have self-control and you want to kill people.

01:04:37.000 I specifically said I don't want to, but I understand.

01:04:40.000 I've never experienced that in my life.

01:04:42.000 Brainwashing.

01:04:43.000 I've never experienced an urge to reenact GTA in real life.

01:04:46.000 Tim, Ian is telling you what happens to him.

01:04:48.000 And?

01:04:48.000 And that's that's all and I don't think that Ian maybe I don't think that you should extend that to all the video

01:04:54.000 games and All people and that's why Tim's pulling up studies

01:04:56.000 I think what I'm saying is that if Ian is experiencing some kind of problem, he shouldn't associate that with everyone

01:05:01.000 Well, I'm saying all the nominal. Well, look it's a simple for you. It's an ontological disagreement

01:05:07.000 He is a very big believer in deductive reasoning.

01:05:09.000 He's a very big believer in inductive reasoning, and sometimes they have something in common, sometimes they disagree, and that's just what it comes down to.

01:05:15.000 Very well said.

01:05:16.000 But how can you read five studies and then deduce a finality from five Well, because he doesn't see evidence of it to the contrary.

01:05:23.000 If there was one study that suggested what you agreed, what you suggested, he would actually probably be a little on your side.

01:05:28.000 Did he look?

01:05:28.000 Did he look for evidence to the contrary?

01:05:29.000 I just Googled it and clicked the top five links.

01:05:30.000 Did you look for evidence to the contrary?

01:05:31.000 You looked for evidence to support your claim.

01:05:33.000 You didn't... What else did you look for today?

01:05:35.000 Well, so now it's just a matter of time.

01:05:38.000 He hasn't had time to.

01:05:38.000 So I guess that's where you leave it, right?

01:05:39.000 Actually, that's not true.

01:05:40.000 I've had two decades where I've researched this extensively and Ian has done nothing.

01:05:43.000 No, I study this stuff, man.

01:05:44.000 I'll tell you the problem is that I literally have been reading for decades.

01:05:48.000 I do nothing but read all day every day.

01:05:50.000 I do tons of research endlessly.

01:05:52.000 And then Ian says, I feel.

01:05:53.000 I've literally been playing video games for decades.

01:05:55.000 And that's not research.

01:05:56.000 That's you.

01:05:56.000 It's personal research about the way video games affect your mind.

01:05:59.000 The plural of anecdote is not data.

01:06:01.000 Dude, it is...

01:06:02.000 Yes, it is!

01:06:04.000 No, it isn't!

01:06:06.000 If you're a fireman and you tell me about how hot fire is, I'm going to listen to you.

01:06:09.000 The moral of the anecdote is not data.

01:06:11.000 Ian, let me ask you a question then.

01:06:13.000 If he had spent the last year working on a PhD on this very subject and had consumed everything, and then he said, well, I looked at all the evidence, I found little to nothing suggesting that it contributes to violence, would that affect your point of view?

01:06:27.000 In the meantime, if you had a show about this, and you had paper after paper after I don't care if they cause violence or don't cause violence.

01:06:34.000 The research says they don't.

01:06:35.000 not true. So this will stop when you get a PhD in video game violence.

01:06:40.000 So it's an issue of one of the biggest problems we have in my opinion with

01:06:44.000 politics in general is people who think their feelings are fact and it's not

01:06:49.000 true period. I don't care about video games. I don't care if they cause

01:06:52.000 violence or don't cause violence. The research says they don't. Do you think

01:06:54.000 violent movies cause people to become more violent? I have not researched it.

01:06:58.000 But I believe the answer is no.

01:06:59.000 Why would you believe that if you haven't researched it?

01:07:02.000 Because what we have seen is that there is in some... The amount of research I've done into video games and violence is like probably to me notable in that for the past two decades I've actually been looking up articles and reading the science on it.

01:07:16.000 Fairly often.

01:07:17.000 The movie stuff, I've read a couple things, and what I've seen is there is a short-term burst of aggression after watching violent films, but it's short-term and doesn't lead to real-world violence.

01:07:26.000 That's what we've seen so far.

01:07:27.000 So that's the extent that I can get, and I would probably say that suggests, no, regular people don't have impulses to go out and commit crimes because they've watched a movie.

01:07:36.000 So, listen.

01:07:37.000 Facts don't care about your feelings.

01:07:39.000 If video games caused violence, I'd be sitting here saying that was the case.

01:07:42.000 But politicians have used that as an excuse for moral authoritarian power for censorship for a long time.

01:07:47.000 Do you think that watching someone commit a crime makes you more or less likely to commit the crime?

01:07:52.000 Makes me less likely, actually.

01:07:53.000 Because now I emphasize with the victim.

01:07:54.000 Do you think someone telling you, like someone up on a stage orating and telling people to cause violence would make them more likely to cause violence?

01:08:00.000 Yes.

01:08:02.000 Experiencing it with your eyes and your ears, yes.

01:08:10.000 Do you think that people can ever forget they're in real life and think they're in the video game while they're playing the game?

01:08:14.000 Yeah.

01:08:14.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:08:16.000 Yeah, me too.

01:08:17.000 I didn't say it was widespread, dude.

01:08:20.000 I think it's insidious and subtle.

01:08:25.000 No, I think you think feelings are facts, and they're not.

01:08:28.000 Your personal anecdote is not data.

01:08:30.000 I think people can forget they're in the video game, and that can really make them think that they're watching a real person.

01:08:36.000 The fact that you said you think the plural of anecdote is data suggests you just don't know anything about research in general.

01:08:41.000 The plural of anecdote is not data.

01:08:42.000 Dude, you just said that you haven't researched if movies cause violence, but you believe they don't.

01:08:47.000 In related gamifying news, I have a thing that maybe could Put us on a different track here.

01:08:54.000 In related gaming news, YouTube today is accused of gamifying the like and dislike button for all of the videos from the official White House YouTube channel, as there are many screenshots portraying likes that are supposedly, according to some people, being manipulated in real time.

01:09:11.000 Have you guys heard about that?

01:09:12.000 I blame violent video games for this.

01:09:16.000 YouTube has done this to the like button a lot.

01:09:18.000 The issue is though, are the likes legitimate?

01:09:21.000 Yes, we don't know if there was actual individuals manipulating the system, because there's usually also some bots that are implemented that do create fake likes and fake dislikes out there, so we don't know if this was the exact situation that unfolded here.

01:09:35.000 But also, surprisingly, the president that was elected and had more votes than any other president in American history looks like he's getting absolutely ratioed and dunked on, even with the corrections from YouTube, as his videos are having 90% Dislike percentages.

01:09:51.000 Yes.

01:09:51.000 Right.

01:09:51.000 But that's because people voted against Trump.

01:09:53.000 Yeah.

01:09:54.000 No one likes Biden.

01:09:55.000 Right.

01:09:55.000 Yeah.

01:09:56.000 A lot of people didn't like Trump.

01:09:57.000 Yeah.

01:09:58.000 So people are like, why can't, why, why won't people show up for Joe

01:10:01.000 Biden because nobody wanted him.

01:10:02.000 Yes.

01:10:03.000 But they just didn't, it was, it was, it was, that's why Joe Biden hid because

01:10:06.000 the campaign was, I don't like Donald Trump or I like Donald Trump.

01:10:09.000 Yeah.

01:10:10.000 It still is like surprising seeing the, the likes, the dislikes, even

01:10:15.000 with the, the supposed corrections.

01:10:16.000 I hope YouTube addresses the kind of allegations because we're seeing some of the videos being unlisted and coming back with a whole different ratio.

01:10:24.000 But again, we don't know what's happening.

01:10:26.000 You want to take the Netflix solution because you remember when Netflix, what did they do?

01:10:29.000 They got rid of that system.

01:10:32.000 Yes, right after Amy Schumer's, like, Netflix special debuted and it was, like, promoted everywhere.

01:10:39.000 Rotten Tomatoes, I think, gave it a 98% when actual critics gave it, what, I think, I forgot the exact score. 10%.

01:10:47.000 And then they were like, we have the perfect solution here.

01:10:52.000 We're just going to totally get rid of all the percentages.

01:10:55.000 So you can't even see the exact ratings only left up to the professionals.

01:10:59.000 And again, we're seeing people's voices just being slowly taken away.

01:11:02.000 We saw this with comment sections a couple of years ago.

01:11:05.000 I was screaming about it.

01:11:07.000 I was sad to see it.

01:11:08.000 But now I think with this happening, they already disabled comments on the official White House YouTube channel.

01:11:15.000 I think it's only going to be a matter of time until they disable the likes and dislike button because it is... I wonder if that's legal though because, sorry, but you remember Trump was brought to court for using his presidential account to block people.

01:11:29.000 They said he couldn't do that.

01:11:30.000 I wonder if that's worthy of a lawsuit for their disabling comments on YouTube.

01:11:34.000 There was court proceedings literally saying Donald Trump can't block people because Reply Guys Jobs was literally replying to Donald Trump.

01:11:42.000 So, I mean, do you know the court rulings on that?

01:11:47.000 Yeah, they said he had to unblock the people he had blocked.

01:11:49.000 Did he unblock it?

01:11:51.000 I imagine so.

01:11:51.000 Most of them.

01:11:53.000 Now they're all out of work.

01:11:54.000 I believe AOC still has a bunch of people blocked as well, and there's a couple other congress people that are getting sued as well.

01:11:59.000 I'm seeing a bunch of people tweet being like, man, Donald Trump must be so bored right now.

01:12:05.000 He's golfing.

01:12:06.000 And also, YouTube just recently also expanded his suspension for another two weeks on YouTube.

01:12:11.000 Yeah, he's gone.

01:12:12.000 They're not bringing him back.

01:12:13.000 And a couple banks have also cancelled his accounts.

01:12:17.000 So, yes.

01:12:19.000 Impeachment proceedings are still going to continue in the Senate.

01:12:23.000 And, yeah, things are not really looking that good for Donald Trump, to say the least.

01:12:28.000 But things are looking really good for some of our favorite TV hosts.

01:12:33.000 The world is always brighter with authoritarianism.

01:12:36.000 It's bringing some people to tears.

01:12:39.000 Check the story out.

01:12:40.000 For those that are listening, we're going to start off this segment with me asking you a simple question.

01:12:45.000 And don't look if you haven't yet.

01:12:46.000 Don't look.

01:12:47.000 Who do you think cried when Joe Biden won?

01:12:51.000 Which anchor on TV cried?

01:12:53.000 Probably all the right-wingers.

01:12:55.000 I know this one.

01:12:56.000 Who is it, Luke?

01:12:57.000 Miss Maddow.

01:12:59.000 Rachel Maddow from the Daily Mail.

01:13:01.000 Who is media's biggest Biden suck-up?

01:13:05.000 Rachel Maddow cries on air while Al Roker fist bumps the president, and the new press secretary Jen Psaki gets a very warm welcome.

01:13:14.000 Rachel Maddow said that she'd worked through half a box of Kleenex on air.

01:13:20.000 Amazing!

01:13:21.000 Oh yes, weeping on air and making fun of Trump staffers.

01:13:24.000 Rachel Maddow, a well-known Trump critic, confessed on her show that she worked through half a box of Kleenex while watching the day's events.

01:13:31.000 I'm a faucet that can't turn off.

01:13:33.000 I remember the last time she almost cried on TV was when the Mueller report came back that Donald Trump wasn't colluding with Russia.

01:13:40.000 And you could see her struggling not to cry.

01:13:43.000 And there's that really funny video where the lady is like filming with her phone and she's laughing and she goes, she crying!

01:13:48.000 Oh, I love that.

01:13:49.000 It went so viral.

01:13:50.000 It was amazing.

01:13:51.000 They say ABC News' Byron Pitts drew criticism for calling Biden the nation's Papa-in-Chief after listening to his inaugural address.

01:13:58.000 I love this one tweet.

01:14:00.000 This New York Times bestselling author said, we can now rest.

01:14:05.000 No more 3 a.m.

01:14:06.000 waking up with anxiety.

01:14:08.000 It's like when you were a little kid falling asleep in the backseat knowing that dad was driving and everything would be okay.

01:14:14.000 And I'm just like, I wouldn't want to fall asleep in a car with Joe Biden driving it.

01:14:18.000 I'd want to be holding on and I'd be wearing my seatbelt.

01:14:21.000 But here's where it gets interesting.

01:14:22.000 It wasn't just Rachel Maddow who was crying.

01:14:25.000 It's also Andrew Sullivan.

01:14:27.000 Isn't Andrew Sullivan a conservative?

01:14:30.000 I'm not even sure where anybody is now.

01:14:32.000 Oh my gosh.

01:14:32.000 I don't think it matters.

01:14:33.000 He tweeted just walking the dog and finding myself in tears, relief, patriotism.

01:14:39.000 The ceremony, the ceremony restored something inside.

01:14:43.000 Oh my God.

01:14:44.000 That's kind of scary.

01:14:45.000 You know what I mean?

01:14:46.000 Like the cult, like the cult, like a view of the American industrial machine.

01:14:53.000 You know, the people who look at Joe Biden and the establishment and they just want to drop to their knees and

01:15:01.000 worship the establishment and they cry when the establishment power

01:15:05.000 is returned.

01:15:05.000 Who is it that was walking their dog?

01:15:07.000 Andrew Sullivan.

01:15:08.000 It's like all the murder and all the death and all of the authoritarianism.

01:15:12.000 They don't care.

01:15:12.000 Well, they've got at least a four-year vacation ahead of them because, you know, they don't have to do any critical reporting.

01:15:18.000 They just have to repeat what's said, fed to them by the White House press office and the DNC.

01:15:22.000 They don't have to do anything anymore.

01:15:25.000 It was so hard with Trump, you know, like having to do work.

01:15:29.000 Do their jobs.

01:15:31.000 And now, literally, a lot of their coverage is aesthetics and the clothing that some of these people wear.

01:15:37.000 Did you see those sneakers?

01:15:38.000 Yes.

01:15:38.000 Look at those chucks that Kamala Harris is wearing.

01:15:41.000 I mean, that's literally, I think it was ABC News that sat her down.

01:15:45.000 I mean, we're talking about one of the most important people in our political discourse right now, and you're asking her about sneakers?

01:15:52.000 I mean, are you kidding me?

01:15:53.000 There was another anchor on MSNBC that I tweeted about that compared Biden's administration to the Avengers.

01:16:01.000 Literally, she said they are superheroes that will, quote, save us all.

01:16:06.000 I tweeted, well, he's more like Thanos with the snap of a finger who's going to take away half of your income.

01:16:11.000 And it's just absolutely ridiculous to have this kind of glorification of politicians, of power, Which, again, just shows you the utter lack of responsibility and duty that these supposed journalists have for their profession.

01:16:26.000 It's not a profession. 0.96

01:16:27.000 It's literally just brown nosers. 1.00

01:16:29.000 Here's the issue, right?

01:16:30.000 When a bunch of middle American people who lost their jobs start cheering for Trump and making these silly drawings of Trump riding a tank or riding a velociraptor, I don't care all that much because they're regular people. 0.98

01:16:43.000 They're regular people who believe in Donald Trump.

01:16:46.000 When the mainstream corporate media uses the might of their billions of dollars to prop up one political party and destroy the other, that's disconcerting.

01:16:57.000 If I see a group of people like, you know, I've never really cared all that much about the Q stuff, because I'm like, I don't care who these people are, they can believe, they can have their little forums, they can believe whatever they want, I think it's bad for them, I think it led to bad things, and it's sad. 1.00

01:17:09.000 But what about the other conspiracy on the left?

01:17:11.000 The crazy Russia stuff, the Putin calling Donald Trump during the Capitol riot, and they prop it up.

01:17:16.000 You know, it's difficult to actually get in to find these communities that are full of weird conspiracies.

01:17:23.000 It's difficult.

01:17:24.000 It's easy to turn on MSNBC and then hear fake news and propaganda and insanity and then start believing it.

01:17:31.000 And they want that.

01:17:32.000 Q is just a much less effective version of CNN and the New York Times.

01:17:37.000 Much less dangerous.

01:17:38.000 They create these conspiracy theories. 0.99

01:17:40.000 They incite riots with BLM mythology that says that cops are just going around gunning down innocent black men because they're black. 0.98

01:17:48.000 I mean, they invented this mythology. 0.97

01:17:50.000 The country burned the entire summer because of their conspiracy theories.

01:17:54.000 Q just causes some awkward moments at Thanksgiving.

01:17:57.000 Right.

01:17:57.000 Well, a lot of people who stormed the capital were Q people, like the Viking guy, right?

01:18:02.000 So some bad stuff comes of it, right?

01:18:04.000 He also claimed he was an alien, though.

01:18:06.000 No, no, no.

01:18:07.000 Well, yes, but in the body of a human, and he practices life magic.

01:18:11.000 And he explained that his presence there was to ward off the dark magic people who would see him and then go, whoa, we got like a big player, we better back off.

01:18:19.000 Because his life magic was powerful.

01:18:21.000 Yeah, that's the insurrection we were facing.

01:18:23.000 Could you imagine a government by that guy?

01:18:24.000 It's like the national religion would be the incoherent ramblings on the Dr. Bronner's soap bottles.

01:18:30.000 He would probably get more likes on YouTube than Biden.

01:18:32.000 Oh, definitely.

01:18:34.000 I have a feeling he still thinks that he preserved a bunch of people's lives.

01:18:37.000 He's like, if I wasn't there, so many more people would have died.

01:18:40.000 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:18:41.000 And maybe he did.

01:18:42.000 He looked kind of funny, like he brought a levity to it.

01:18:45.000 So look, the Q stuff, it bums me out. 1.00

01:18:49.000 These people just want to believe it, you know?

01:18:51.000 They want to believe that, I'm telling you right now, they still believe Trump has got a secret plan.

01:18:56.000 They think the new Capitol is in Florida and Trump is working with the military.

01:19:00.000 And I kid you not, because I tweeted this on the 20th, like how long until they start saying that, you know, the real plan was to allow Biden to be president.

01:19:07.000 So that way they would confirm the crime and the treason had been committed, because if he didn't assume the office, then the treason never happened, right?

01:19:15.000 They really believe it.

01:19:17.000 Sorry.

01:19:18.000 I was going to say, the way the media decides to focus on that particular group, it always makes me wonder, because they can never quite answer the question.

01:19:26.000 So, let's say Q supporters was 5% of the public.

01:19:31.000 Maybe it's significant, but what if it's really like 0.5%?

01:19:35.000 Is there any measurement?

01:19:36.000 Because they sort of focus in on this demographic of crazies and make it seem like, well, that's common, that's mainstream.

01:19:42.000 And they do this constantly with like, they find some extremists or some weirdo.

01:19:46.000 And make it seem like it's representative of something larger, when in fact, it's barely even that entity.

01:19:51.000 Or it doesn't exist at all.

01:19:52.000 It's with the Caliphate podcast that New York Times did.

01:19:54.000 It was completely manufactured.

01:19:56.000 So like, all this attention that Qs get... How many people actually are quote-unquote Qs?

01:20:01.000 Has there been a survey done that established them as something more than 1% of the population, if that?

01:20:05.000 But it was given life because of the major censorship efforts.

01:20:09.000 A lot of people who spewed the Q stuff said, well, if we're not legitimate, why is YouTube?

01:20:14.000 Why is Google?

01:20:15.000 Why is Facebook and Twitter censoring us?

01:20:18.000 And that, of course, created a situation where the conversation didn't take place in front of everyone.

01:20:23.000 It took place in other parts of the internet that are far away in seedy places where crazy people go to discuss different things.

01:20:30.000 It even came to a point where YouTube started banning and deleting videos that were critical of Q people.

01:20:39.000 They say, whenever they get censored, they say, over-target.

01:20:43.000 Which means that, oh no, we figured it out, that's why they're reacting this way.

01:20:48.000 They're trying to ban us because we were right.

01:20:51.000 Jack Dorsey actually sort of admitted this because you remember after Trump was banned off of Twitter he sort of and then Parler was kicked off he made his little tweet thread and it was very slimy and I don't think authentic but in the beginning says that banning Trump and the other platform you know what happened to them has in his words he said caused the conversation to become fractured that's exactly what you're describing because if we're not all in the same place talking we can't all correct the little you know and And if somebody goes really far off the reservation, well, we're all still here.

01:21:21.000 We can just pull them back and put our arms around them.

01:21:23.000 But when they're off on their own, there's that communication has been broke because they've been banned off the platform.

01:21:27.000 There was literal people saying, OK, let's look at these Q drops.

01:21:30.000 Let's let's break them down.

01:21:31.000 OK, this didn't happen.

01:21:32.000 This didn't happen.

01:21:33.000 This isn't a search.

01:21:34.000 And they say this is going to happen.

01:21:36.000 Let's actually look at this.

01:21:37.000 Let's see if there's any evidence.

01:21:39.000 Let's see if there's any documents backing this.

01:21:41.000 Nothing.

01:21:42.000 And slowly talking people out of it.

01:21:44.000 Those videos were deleted from YouTube.

01:21:47.000 They thought that Mueller was working for Trump.

01:21:50.000 They said that Mueller, they needed a way to get in a special prosecutor with a deep state realizing it, and that Mueller was pretending to investigate Trump for the press, but it was actually going to be about Hillary Clinton.

01:22:02.000 And then it never happened.

01:22:03.000 And they claim to have found the location of these camps, and they went to these places, and then there was nothing there.

01:22:09.000 And it was years ago that people like Cernovich and Jack Posobiec, some of the highest profile Trump supporters, were like, dude, it's not real.

01:22:15.000 People don't wanna let it go.

01:22:17.000 And then when, I remember, it's just been, for the past several weeks, people saying, Monday's the day, the states are gonna start flipping, and the arrests are gonna happen, the storm is coming, nothing happens.

01:22:28.000 Then I remember the day before inauguration.

01:22:31.000 I had people posting on, I see people posting on Facebook, tomorrow is the final day, they're waiting for the last moment, and then Biden gets inaugurated.

01:22:37.000 And then, all of a sudden, there were these crazy posts popping up, like, what's happening, what's happening, I'm so confused.

01:22:42.000 And then the next day, it's all part of the plan.

01:22:44.000 It's all part of the plan.

01:22:45.000 Was it a real thing with someone that actually had info, but then it just got co-opted by crazy people that are like, I'm gonna pretend like I'm Q and trick everyone.

01:22:53.000 No, it's like Nostradamus.

01:22:55.000 It's like, I'm gonna make a prediction for you right now.

01:22:59.000 The dark eagle.

01:23:00.000 The moon.

01:23:02.000 Green blades.

01:23:03.000 address. Friday. At some point in the next several years, someone will find this clip

01:23:11.000 and they will associate those random things I just said and be like, he was right. I didn't

01:23:16.000 say anything. Or I could ask questions. Oh, cute. As you ask questions. Why is Nancy Pelosi 1.00

01:23:20.000 wanting machine guns? Why is the National Guard refusing to answer why they're there?

01:23:25.000 Yeah, they asked a lot of questions.

01:23:26.000 That's what Q does.

01:23:27.000 Ask questions.

01:23:28.000 Why is the military moving a plane in the dead of night to Joint Base Andrews?

01:23:32.000 Why did another plane go to Texas?

01:23:34.000 And they call themselves Q because that's the name of that guy from Star Trek Next Gen?

01:23:38.000 No, because of Q Clearance.

01:23:39.000 What's that?

01:23:39.000 Oh, okay.

01:23:39.000 the highest level of security clearance you can get so they say

01:23:42.000 uh... i'm i'm bit i don't know that's true i don't know and i was a lot of people attribute what happened with q as

01:23:47.000 a government-run psychological operation as a side up because if you look at

01:23:51.000 the effects of it it essentially undermined

01:23:55.000 not only donald trump but any form of legitimate criticism of government

01:23:59.000 you know instead of actually considering what the government has been doing

01:24:03.000 the american foreign policy where our tax dollars are going people were talking about

01:24:08.000 riddles on the internet

01:24:09.000 and looking for things that weren't really there at all from the very beginning.

01:24:13.000 And when you see the cause and effect, a lot of people are saying, hey, this was directly done for nefarious purposes that essentially backfired on anyone who believed in it.

01:24:22.000 You know what else is just like that?

01:24:26.000 Voter fraud.

01:24:27.000 No, here's my point is because, look, this type of research I did was into something that was much more concrete and practical, whereas these voter fraud conspiracies just made it seem like the entire election was a result of voter fraud.

01:24:40.000 Now, I've said what I've said in other channels about what I think would happen, but the problem is What this has done is distract us from something that had a much bigger impact than illegal ballots, which was over the last four years with hundreds of millions of dollars, the left went on a registration march.

01:24:54.000 They did aggressive voter registration, voter engagement, and voter turnout that was unmatched on the right.

01:24:59.000 That had a much bigger impact than anything related to fraudulent ballots, voter fraud, etc.

01:25:06.000 However, because we're all absorbed with this voter fraud thing, we're not paying attention to the real problem, which is those conservatives, those on the right, just completely did nothing on the voter registration side to match what the left was doing.

01:25:20.000 But as long as we're talking about voter fraud, we're not paying attention to the real problem, which is exactly what you've said.

01:25:25.000 And it was a lot of rule changes over the past year.

01:25:27.000 That too.

01:25:28.000 It was well before COVID that Pennsylvania passed the law, and these are Republicans by the way, for mail-in voting.

01:25:33.000 So that's why I say the whole thing was actually Trump getting oceans elevened.

01:25:38.000 The real moves were made well in advance of the election, and we were watching it happen.

01:25:43.000 There was even controversy where Trump was like, you know, oh, vote by mail is bad.

01:25:48.000 Oh, wait, wait, wait, you should vote because they realized it was actually disenfranchising his own voters.

01:25:52.000 The Democrats had planned this for a long time.

01:25:54.000 Stacey Abrams has been running a massive get out the vote campaign and fighting legal battles to maintain voter registration rolls and things like that. 1.00

01:26:03.000 So I agree with you.

01:26:05.000 I think it happened a long time ago and I think that's what you're working on now.

01:26:09.000 Yeah, well, Look Ahead America, our primary mission is registering, educating, and turning out to vote disaffected patriotic Americans.

01:26:15.000 I have a database of millions of American citizens who are patriotic, who are not registered to vote, and we're going to go into their communities, just like Acorn would do on the left, or Stacey Abrams would do in Fulton County, Engage these people, get them registered to vote, educate them, have events, do real community organizing, and turn them out to vote on election day because nobody on the patriotic side has done that.

01:26:36.000 And that's what our primary mission is.

01:26:39.000 And the problem with all this is I bring this up and then people say, well, what's the point?

01:26:45.000 They're just going to steal the election again.

01:26:46.000 And again, I made the point that illegal ballots did have an impact, but nowhere near the impact of the voter registration and then the lowering the bar to make it easier to vote.

01:26:55.000 Those two things together.

01:26:56.000 I think, yeah, mail-in voting.

01:26:59.000 Republicans overwhelmingly voted in person, and then you had Democrats who overwhelmingly voted early.

01:27:05.000 And so a lot of people don't realize, I hear the same thing over and over again about, like, the late-night, you know, boosts for these candidates, and it's like, Yeah, those were mail-in ballot dumps.

01:27:14.000 And they were from urban centers, which are overwhelmingly... So you take these two factors, that Republicans don't vote by mail, for the most part, and urban centers are overwhelmingly for Biden, and you get a 95% Biden drop.

01:27:25.000 It makes perfect sense.

01:27:27.000 You could see it all coming.

01:27:29.000 And so now what the left has been saying is that Stacey Abrams saved the country, because her get-out-the-vote campaign in Georgia won them the Senate.

01:27:38.000 I also think the Republican party burnt themselves to the ground by not supporting Trump and by not supporting the people.

01:27:46.000 But you know, here we are now.

01:27:47.000 Well, it'll be interesting to see what happens because Trump is talking, uh, well, I should say it's been reported.

01:27:51.000 Trump is floating the Patriot party, but I'm, I'm, I wonder what you think about that, Matt, because you're, you're, you want to get people to register to vote.

01:27:58.000 What if people come out, they get registered and then they go and vote Patriot instead of Republican?

01:28:02.000 So, you know, as a C3, we register anybody who asks us for help with it, regardless of any of their background or their partisanship.

01:28:09.000 We're just about educating people on patriotic issues such as H-1B visa abuse or corporate censorship and election integrity, that kind of thing.

01:28:18.000 But, putting on my general consultant hat, I think that any third party attempts are primarily operations driven by narcissism.

01:28:28.000 Here's the premise, okay?

01:28:29.000 The premise is that you don't have enough power to take over the Republican Party or the Democrat Party and then win a general election.

01:28:35.000 So somehow you're miraculously going to build a party from scratch and then win a general election.

01:28:40.000 Here's a hard truth that even I have trouble accepting.

01:28:44.000 If your electoral coalition doesn't have people in it that make you deeply uncomfortable, it's probably not broad enough to win a general election.

01:28:55.000 It's painful and tough medicine, but some folks just can't accept that.

01:29:01.000 Look, I use the word narcissism about third parties, and I'm going to explain what I mean.

01:29:05.000 We all know the story of Narcissus, right?

01:29:08.000 He fell in love with his own image reflecting back in the lake, and he couldn't move away from that, and he died.

01:29:16.000 I believe his problem wasn't that he found himself to be so beautiful.

01:29:20.000 He saw in himself perfection.

01:29:22.000 That wasn't his problem.

01:29:23.000 His problem was that he could not find enough beauty in the real world to leave that and go seek real nourishment.

01:29:29.000 He fell in love with the ideal, which did not exist, rather than falling in love with the real that, while imperfect, still had nourishment and the ability to sustain him and to grow him.

01:29:40.000 And when you look at a political party, GOP or Democrat, and you see imperfection and you only insist on perfection, that doesn't exist.

01:29:48.000 That gets you nowhere unless you're willing to work with other people whom are flawed, whom you disagree with, whom you may strongly disagree with on some issues.

01:29:55.000 So your refusal to engage with other Republicans because you think they're sellouts or rhinos, or let's say you're a Democrat, you refuse to engage because you think they're owned by the banks.

01:30:04.000 Well that's your own narcissism refusing to accept the fact that this is the real world and if you want to get anything done in electoral politics you don't have to love it but you've got to find a way to work with others and you can't just fall in love with your own reflection and go off and have any impact that matters.

01:30:19.000 Very good points made and I think also a lot of Trump supporters are absolutely disenfranchised with all the latest moves he's been making the last few weeks and you know for a lot of people that I'm seeing are really really disappointed especially with the pardoning list that essentially is a big debacle.

01:30:35.000 Yeah, he could have come out, he could have done one thing, you know?

01:30:37.000 Could have been Julian Assange.

01:30:39.000 Instead, we got crooked cronies, the Detroit... Spies. 1.00

01:30:43.000 Some people deserved it.

01:30:43.000 Mercenaries.

01:30:45.000 I can understand some of it.

01:30:46.000 I can.

01:30:47.000 But it was just a big letdown.

01:30:48.000 You know, I have many, many criticisms of Mitt Romney.

01:30:51.000 I could criticize him all day long, but he did one very smart thing, I agree, is that when he was governor of Massachusetts, he didn't pardon a single person.

01:30:59.000 And if I get a president who abides by that because the pardon power is really kind of weird It's weird because it doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of our government where it's all law and order There's a process checks and balances, you know, you get convicted you can appeal etc This is like a magical wand that exists outside of everything And I think you know to his in that that's the only thing I actually think I could say that's good about Mitt Romney's that you know If we had a president embrace that he probably avoid a lot of trouble Because then, if he came out at the beginning and said, I'm not going to pardon anybody, it doesn't exist, then all the lobbying and corruption that surrounds trying to get those pardons would immediately evaporate.

01:31:32.000 Or, what if he said, I'm going to pardon everybody.

01:31:34.000 You don't need to lobby me at all.

01:31:35.000 I guess so, alright.

01:31:36.000 Everyone. 0.63

01:31:37.000 That crazy guy who was selling drugs, pardoned. 0.94

01:31:39.000 Joe Exotic, get him out. 0.97

01:31:40.000 Joe Exotic, get him a limo.

01:31:42.000 Could a president do that, technically?

01:31:44.000 Yes.

01:31:44.000 Every single one.

01:31:46.000 What?

01:31:46.000 At least from federal crimes.

01:31:48.000 Federal charges.

01:31:49.000 Why can't we get a president who just does something?

01:31:52.000 If we were to get a president that defied the military-industrial complex, how would that work?

01:31:56.000 They would have to flee the country and work abroad?

01:31:57.000 really, really awful people.

01:31:58.000 I'm saying Trump could have sat back with a big old stack of paper

01:32:00.000 and be like, let's see, distribute distribution of

01:32:02.000 marijuana. You're free to go.

01:32:03.000 Dude, if we were a nonviolent offenses, that's right.

01:32:06.000 We were to get a president that defied the military industrial

01:32:08.000 complex. How would that work?

01:32:09.000 They would have to leave the country and like work 1.00

01:32:12.000 abroad.

01:32:13.000 I think it would be a problem, though, if a president did that,

01:32:15.000 because what would happen is that the responsibility

01:32:19.000 that legislators have and the process of passing

01:32:22.000 legislation, House, Senate, then present sign it.

01:32:25.000 It would basically neutralize that. And then we would become

01:32:28.000 this entity that's completely subject to

01:32:32.000 a president's women.

01:32:33.000 No, but they can do that with executive orders. 0.77

01:32:35.000 He can instruct the FBI, for instance, not to arrest people for drug charges.

01:32:38.000 There's limits.

01:32:39.000 Oh, yeah, but that's different than parting somebody who's been convicted, and there's some limits to what a president can excuse.

01:32:45.000 And we did this before, and it was a mistake.

01:32:46.000 This is a little bit arcane, but the Congress passed what I would consider an anti-free speech campaign finance reform bill.

01:32:53.000 Many of them knowing that things in it were unconstitutional, unconstitutional restrictions, and what they were going to do is just count on the Supreme Court.

01:33:00.000 Oh, the Supreme Court will fix it. 0.97

01:33:02.000 Well, it turned out the Supreme Court didn't fix it, and they didn't actually get around to even changing some things about it for another 10 or 20 years.

01:33:08.000 So what I think would happen is the legislature would abrogate the responsibility to uphold the Constitution because they just assumed the President would do it or the Supreme Court or somebody else would do it.

01:33:16.000 So I think that would be a downside to your very wonderful fantasy.

01:33:20.000 I just want to see somebody for once.

01:33:24.000 You know, look, there are a lot of people in jail that we know shouldn't be there.

01:33:26.000 Because we have too many rigid judges and lawyers.

01:33:31.000 I'll tell you, when I was, I think I was, how old was I, 20 maybe?

01:33:35.000 I got pulled over.

01:33:37.000 I had just gone to Colorado to visit my sister on Fort Carson because her husband was in Iraq on the ground as a field medic and she was terrified and distraught and I came to, you know, just hang out with her and provide her with some company.

01:33:51.000 When I came back to Illinois, I got pulled over by a cop and I had no idea why.

01:33:56.000 I had done nothing illegal.

01:33:57.000 I wasn't speeding.

01:33:58.000 And the first thing the cop does is he walks up to the window and he goes, you Tim Pool?

01:34:01.000 Yes, sir.

01:34:01.000 And he goes, out of the vehicle, you're under arrest.

01:34:03.000 And I was like, uh, what's happening?

01:34:05.000 He goes, you're driving on a suspended license.

01:34:07.000 I am?

01:34:07.000 I had no idea.

01:34:09.000 Because if you're under the age of 21 and you get two moving violations, two different tickets, they suspend your license for three months.

01:34:16.000 I didn't even know that it happened, and I didn't realize that I had previously gotten a bogus ticket for speeding when I wasn't.

01:34:22.000 I was exiting off of Lake Shore, I was onto Belmont Avenue from Lake Shore Drive, I was going about five miles under the limit, and a cop pulled me over and gave me a ticket.

01:34:30.000 So here I am by myself.

01:34:31.000 Now, my license is suspended.

01:34:32.000 I had no idea.

01:34:33.000 Never received notification.

01:34:33.000 Had my license and everything.

01:34:35.000 And the guy says, don't worry, I'm gonna I-bond you if someone can come pick you up.

01:34:39.000 And I was like, okay, I guess.

01:34:41.000 When I went to court, the prosecutor asked me, you know, what are you gonna do?

01:34:47.000 If you plead guilty, I'll give you, you know, we'll do this, that, and this.

01:34:50.000 And I said, can I just let you know what was going on and like what happened?

01:34:52.000 And he said, sure.

01:34:53.000 And I explained everything.

01:34:54.000 And I was like, look, I was coming back from visiting my sister.

01:34:58.000 I had not received any notifications about a suspension, and I'm really sorry it happened.

01:35:01.000 And he goes, ah, thanks for your confession.

01:35:03.000 So it's a year in jail, or you're gonna plead guilty, and we're gonna give you court supervision, and you're gonna pay a fine.

01:35:08.000 And I was like, okay.

01:35:10.000 And then when I went to the judge, the judge asked me if I had been coerced, and I said yes.

01:35:15.000 And he said, what?

01:35:16.000 And I was like, yeah, he told me I'll go to jail for a year, unless I just tell him I'm guilty.

01:35:20.000 And the judge rolled his eyes and said, get a lawyer and come back. 0.97

01:35:24.000 Does it make sense that someone who's 20, who got one, who got, who, I got a tail light out and a speeding ticket, now they want to throw me in jail for a year?

01:35:31.000 Or threaten me with that?

01:35:33.000 I think that makes literally no sense.

01:35:35.000 And it's ridiculous that our system has become so rigid that they would say, I don't give a damn about your family, I don't give a damn that your brother-in-law is serving in Iraq and you want to do the right thing.

01:35:44.000 You broke the law, whether you knew you did or not.

01:35:47.000 Oh, you were just driving, not breaking any laws.

01:35:49.000 In fact, One lawyer told me he had no right to pull me over in the first place.

01:35:52.000 It was a violation of the disclo- what is it called?

01:35:54.000 The uh... Probable cause?

01:35:55.000 No, the exclusionary rule.

01:35:58.000 That I had to have committed a crime to get pulled over in the first place.

01:36:01.000 But I had no way to fight that.

01:36:02.000 I had no way to get a lawyer to say, why did you pull over my client?

01:36:06.000 Uh, well, because I ran his plate and saw his name.

01:36:08.000 What if it was someone else driving the car?

01:36:10.000 That was not a legal stop.

01:36:12.000 Therefore, it's out.

01:36:12.000 No, I couldn't afford that.

01:36:13.000 I had no way to fight it.

01:36:14.000 And so here I am, some 20-year-old dude who had never gotten a notification.

01:36:18.000 No one says to you, when you're 16 or you're 18, getting a license, by the way, if you get two moving violations, we'll suspend your license.

01:36:24.000 They don't mail you notification at all.

01:36:26.000 Just one day, you get pulled over.

01:36:27.000 It's happened to so many different friends of mine.

01:36:29.000 And they actually threaten you with jail time for something that... For what?

01:36:34.000 For what?

01:36:35.000 There's no human emotion in the system right now.

01:36:40.000 And so how many people are rotting in prison for something as nonsensical as that?

01:36:45.000 Especially when it comes to someone who wanted to smoke a little weed in the privacy of their own home, hurting nobody.

01:36:51.000 And so I'd love to see the system, for once, look at all the people who have been arrested for advocating for jury nullification.

01:36:58.000 You guys know about this.

01:36:59.000 Luke, you know about this.

01:36:59.000 Oh yeah, 100%.

01:37:00.000 The juries have the ability to nullify if they think someone shouldn't be punished for it, but if you advocate

01:37:05.000 for that, they'll arrest you.

01:37:07.000 The system is broken.

01:37:08.000 Is it illegal to advocate?

01:37:09.000 No, but they do it anyway and they charge, they give people on contempt of court.

01:37:13.000 Well, the question is though, what are you going to do about it? I mean, you're talking about it.

01:37:16.000 That's why I like the idea to finally get a politician who's going to look through all

01:37:21.000 of these different cases.

01:37:22.000 And I'd love to see a president say, you know what the first thing I'm going to do is?

01:37:25.000 Oh, we're going to do executive orders.

01:37:26.000 But I want to see advocacy and review of as many cases as possible to figure out if we

01:37:32.000 can be human beings again, to see if people actually deserve to get mandatory minimums.

01:37:36.000 There's a story I learned when I was at College of DuPage about a kid whose family was watching their neighbor's home and he went inside and he took a beer and he got four years in prison on a mandatory minimum for robbery And the judge refused.

01:37:52.000 The judge said, it's a mandatory minimum.

01:37:54.000 You went in the house and you took property.

01:37:56.000 And when they said, yeah, but we were asked to watch the house.

01:37:59.000 It doesn't matter.

01:38:00.000 You went in and took someone's property.

01:38:02.000 It wasn't yours.

01:38:03.000 And the people who live there said, we don't care about the beer.

01:38:06.000 We invite them.

01:38:07.000 Doesn't matter.

01:38:08.000 The prison rejected the kid.

01:38:09.000 This is a story that I don't... You can look this up.

01:38:11.000 It was Illinois.

01:38:12.000 It was a story that I was told, and this is now 16 years ago.

01:38:15.000 The prison, when they reviewed the notes on what the story was and why he was getting four years, they wouldn't let him in the prison.

01:38:20.000 And the judge intervened, and the kid went to prison.

01:38:23.000 what the what is wrong with this system i have a high level i got i got a

01:38:27.000 example i think is really worth noting here or if you're in california and your

01:38:31.000 child misses school and then you have come a la harris says the uh... you know

01:38:35.000 prosecutor there was gonna punish the parents and literally have criminal 0.96

01:38:38.000 charges brought on them because of that let me know yet

01:38:40.000 uh... there's actually a harvard law professor that came out and said on

01:38:44.000 average an american a day commits three felonies

01:38:49.000 on average because of how many laws we have on the books And that's, to me, way too many laws.

01:38:54.000 And that's a good point, too.

01:38:55.000 But, you know, on top of that, I'm just trying to point out that there's no humanity in the system at all.

01:39:02.000 It's the like, Illinois has mandatory minimums for drug charges.

01:39:06.000 It's like, dude, come on.

01:39:07.000 Are we really going to take someone who's got an addiction and lock them in a prison for four years?

01:39:12.000 It's not solving the problem.

01:39:13.000 It's making it worse.

01:39:14.000 And they don't care.

01:39:16.000 Look at what happened in Michigan when these juvenile detention centers, the judges were selling kids to them.

01:39:21.000 The system is broken in so many ways.

01:39:23.000 And I wanted Trump to just take a hammer and just whack it just a little bit, not break it.

01:39:27.000 Just give a big middle finger to the messed up nature of how the system works.

01:39:31.000 I don't mean this as criticism, but I think there's a fatal flaw.

01:39:35.000 When I asked you what you were going to do about it, you said, I just wish there was this politician or this president.

01:39:39.000 I wish President Trump... It's got to be you, Tim.

01:39:43.000 It's got to be you.

01:39:44.000 And these methods that I brought up...

01:39:46.000 This is hard work.

01:39:48.000 It's hard work and I hear your complaints, I understand it, but we have to remember something is that the country that we have, where we do generally like the country despite yours, this country was founded because a man rounded up a bunch of other guys on Christmas in the middle of the night and crossed a freezing river and fired guns at other people.

01:40:07.000 Because our great-grandfathers drowned in mud in trenches.

01:40:11.000 Because our grandfathers died on a beach.

01:40:13.000 So for us to expect that things are going to go well for us without making similar efforts, or even efforts to even 10% of that, I think is unreasonable.

01:40:22.000 So all these problems you're talking about, mandatory minimums in Illinois, I know there are groups that are out there actively lobbying to reform them.

01:40:29.000 And it's not going to happen overnight, but it's one step at a time.

01:40:31.000 This issue with young people getting two moving violations, what happened to you?

01:40:36.000 There are multiple solutions available to us.

01:40:39.000 Get that prosecuted.

01:40:40.000 Those guys are elected.

01:40:41.000 You can get rid of them or change the law itself.

01:40:44.000 So all these things are fixable, but it takes time, it takes effort, it takes training and organization.

01:40:49.000 And so we are doing stuff.

01:40:51.000 We got to do stuff.

01:40:52.000 We're talking about it on our show and bringing you on because you are the guy with boots on the ground working towards those solutions.

01:41:00.000 I have always been, you know, I used to do fundraising for nonprofits.

01:41:04.000 That helps.

01:41:06.000 It was always marketing and events and awareness.

01:41:09.000 Absolutely.

01:41:09.000 and I'm still doing essentially the same thing, building awareness and spreading information

01:41:12.000 in certain capacities.

01:41:13.000 So if I can highlight the issue and then I can showcase what you're working on because

01:41:17.000 it'll help solve those problems, then we're doing the right thing.

01:41:20.000 Absolutely.

01:41:21.000 To the best of my abilities.

01:41:22.000 Those C3s, I'll tell you, if you do fundraisers for them, that's manna from heaven because 1.00

01:41:27.000 I can tell you from somebody running one, you'd like to think it didn't matter, but

01:41:31.000 money matters a lot for everything from like mandatory minimums to election reform to getting

01:41:37.000 the, we need professional staff to train and organize these grassroots lobbyists to get

01:41:42.000 out in the field and everything is expensive.

01:41:44.000 Everything costs money.

01:41:45.000 So I, my hat's off to you.

01:41:47.000 If you actually step forward and do fundraisers for organizations like that, that, that is

01:41:51.000 some, that is tremendous and it makes a difference.

01:41:54.000 People donate to your 501c3.

01:41:56.000 Lookaheadamerica.org.

01:41:58.000 Sure.

01:41:58.000 What do you use the money for?

01:42:01.000 Well, we would be raising, we have staff that we would send out into the state of Virginia this year because there's an election, to literally go door-to-door registering Americans where we know they live and they're not registered.

01:42:12.000 To literally stand outside of Costco for 18 hours a day and outside of Walmart registering people and going to high school football games, going to evangelical Hispanic churches.

01:42:24.000 And remember, when we register somebody, that's not the beginning, that's not the end of our relationship with them.

01:42:28.000 That's the beginning.

01:42:29.000 So we're going to continue communicating them, letting them know how important it is that they vote, what issues matter, where politicians stand on these issues, like mandatory minimums, for example.

01:42:38.000 And then when the election comes, turning them out to vote, making sure they're educated on where the candidates stand on those issues.

01:42:43.000 Now, we don't tell them who to vote for.

01:42:44.000 We're not partisan.

01:42:45.000 But that's literally what the money goes to, is having people go out and train volunteers, and going to these state capitals.

01:42:52.000 Like, we could go to the state capital of Illinois and organize people to go talk to their representatives.

01:42:56.000 Because, you know, these representatives, believe it or not, they're not geniuses, right?

01:43:00.000 And many of them have like 20 issues in front of them, and the reason those issues are what's in front of them is because that's what got pushed in front of them.

01:43:06.000 So if their constituents start pushing these mandatory minimums, say, hey, we got to get

01:43:10.000 rid of these, suddenly they'll do something about it, but they don't do it unless you

01:43:14.000 get it, you know, not physically or violently, but you got to get in their faces and make

01:43:19.000 sure this is an issue that will determine whether or not they get reelected.

01:43:21.000 And then they start to listen and figuratively get in their face, like literally approach

01:43:24.000 them and say, hey, I want this changed politely.

01:43:28.000 Always polite.

01:43:29.000 But passionate, well-informed, and always, you know, ready to engage them on... This is how the democracy works.

01:43:37.000 Because if we're not going to do it this way, then, I mean, just imagine what you saw on January 6th.

01:43:42.000 Times a thousand plus automatic weapons.

01:43:45.000 Because it's either this way or some other alternative.

01:43:47.000 This is all we've got.

01:43:48.000 The famous quote is, those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable.

01:43:54.000 I've heard that.

01:43:55.000 Yeah.

01:43:56.000 Was that JFK who said that?

01:43:57.000 It's a genius quote.

01:43:58.000 I'm going to look it up.

01:43:58.000 It sounds more like one of those Che Guevara type quotes.

01:44:04.000 Maybe.

01:44:04.000 But you don't have to take it to the literal idea of overthrowing your government.

01:44:08.000 It's just generally, if we can't change the government and solve these problems, then people eventually explode.

01:44:13.000 Right, but I don't think you get to go explode if you haven't tried talking to your—if you don't know the name of your state legislators and you're complaining about things, then I—you're—get out of here.

01:44:25.000 It was Kennedy.

01:44:26.000 Come on, man!

01:44:26.000 It was Kennedy.

01:44:27.000 Kennedy, those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.

01:44:32.000 Remarks on the first anniversary of the Alliance for Progress, 13th of March, 1962.

01:44:37.000 Well, there it is.

01:44:37.000 How about we jump over to them Super Chats?

01:44:40.000 If you haven't already, smash the like button, hit the notification bell, subscribe and share the show if you really do like it, because that's the best way to help.

01:44:46.000 But also go to TimCast.com, become a member, because our first Super Chat says, when are you guys going to talk about Twitter refusing to take down Bad stuff.

01:44:55.000 Bad videos of children.

01:44:57.000 Yes.

01:44:58.000 We're gonna do a bonus segment because we're gonna get into, like, this is a serious story.

01:45:03.000 There's a lawsuit going on between Twitter and some very, very serious issues.

01:45:06.000 So this is gonna appear on TimGuess.com.

01:45:09.000 I'll talk about that.

01:45:10.000 The one benefit, so look, I don't like putting things behind paywalls when it's very, very important news.

01:45:14.000 There's also concerns of YouTube silencing and shutting down and protecting their allies in Silicon Valley.

01:45:21.000 So one of the reasons we set up TimCast.com was to protect ourselves from the threats of censorship, and we're going to go and rail and go through this story and stuff.

01:45:29.000 So stick around, become a member of TimCast.com, and we're going to really rail against these big tech companies.

01:45:37.000 Geary Vision says, You're right, Tim.

01:45:39.000 The first M16s issued in NAMM were automatic, but were quickly retrofitted to semi-auto because soldiers would disregard training by using spray-and-pray instead of aiming and firing, which is more effective.

01:45:50.000 That's why it's the M16A2 that they have.

01:45:54.000 The A1 was fully automatic.

01:45:55.000 The A2 went to burst.

01:45:57.000 It wasn't selective, like they could, they got rid of the full auto because Yeah, the A1 had full auto, then they got rid of it, so it was basically single, burst, and safety.

01:46:06.000 And those of us that have civilian versions have safety and single.

01:46:10.000 Yep, yep.

01:46:11.000 Interesting.

01:46:12.000 Gareth Green says, DVD didn't exist when Return of Jafar came out.

01:46:16.000 It was the age of VHS.

01:46:17.000 Thanks for letting us know.

01:46:19.000 Alexander Ferris says, I totally agree with you guys.

01:46:21.000 Indeed, I hate censorship.

01:46:23.000 Free speech is good.

01:46:24.000 Screw censorship, I hate it. 1.00

01:46:25.000 Political correctness is so stupid. 1.00

01:46:27.000 Yes. 1.00

01:46:29.000 Sean Anderson says, but didn't Joe Biden say Antifa is an idea, not an organization, during the presidential debates?

01:46:34.000 How can this poor man fight phantoms?

01:46:37.000 That is a good question.

01:46:38.000 All right, let's see.

01:46:40.000 Eric says, have you seen the video of Biden saying, salute the Marines, while walking past Marines without saluting them?

01:46:46.000 Yeah, maybe he was just telling his wife to do it.

01:46:49.000 I saw that video and people are claiming that he was instructed to do it, like someone in his earpiece told him and then he just repeated them instead of doing it.

01:46:56.000 Or his wife was in front of him and he said, salute the Marines.

01:46:59.000 I hope that we don't- But if- why would his wife salute the Marines going in there?

01:47:02.000 And people say that they did see an earpiece in there, but it's just kind of weird.

01:47:06.000 Why would he tell his wife and him not do it, though?

01:47:09.000 He's in the military.

01:47:11.000 She's not.

01:47:12.000 He's the commander.

01:47:12.000 She's not in the military.

01:47:14.000 So they were telling him to salute them and he just repeated it?

01:47:17.000 Is that the theory?

01:47:17.000 Well, that's the theory.

01:47:19.000 But who knows?

01:47:19.000 I hope that we don't go down a path of hating on Biden.

01:47:22.000 I kind of want to avoid pointing blame game anymore.

01:47:25.000 Because that happened for four years and it was really annoying.

01:47:27.000 I hear you.

01:47:28.000 I hear you. 1.00

01:47:28.000 Biden is literally the devil. 1.00

01:47:29.000 He's the most evil man ever on the planet. 1.00

01:47:32.000 He's the... I'm kidding. 0.99

01:47:33.000 I'm kidding.

01:47:34.000 No, I think Biden is... I think he's crooked. 0.96

01:47:37.000 I don't like the guy.

01:47:38.000 But, you know, well, if he does good things, I'll say he did good things.

01:47:42.000 You know, if he comes out and he...

01:47:45.000 I know I can't personally.

01:47:46.000 Well, he's already bolstering our troops in the Middle East, right?

01:47:49.000 Well, he's considering reversing Trump's orders, sending troops home.

01:47:54.000 So I mean when you look at his foreign policy, it's very hawkish

01:47:57.000 Donald Hudgens says Tim first super chat joining the website today. Thank you for speaking truth here

01:48:04.000 Thank you. Here is to your building a truth Empire Well, to the best of our abilities.

01:48:10.000 Not everything I say is correct and not everything we say is correct.

01:48:13.000 We just will try to be honest to the best of our abilities.

01:48:15.000 And for those of you that have joined, if you're having an issue, you can email members at timcast.com and we'll get you sorted.

01:48:20.000 It's a new site, so there's some bugs.

01:48:22.000 We're getting them fixed.

01:48:23.000 There's a third party plugin or something because certain email providers aren't working properly.

01:48:29.000 But we'll get it fixed.

01:48:29.000 We'll get it fixed.

01:48:30.000 Just, you know, members at timcast.com.

01:48:32.000 NuclearWinterGamer says I bought a 3D printer this this new year and will try and make things for myself and not give money to CCP.

01:48:38.000 There's no reason why we can't make things.

01:48:40.000 Seriously, could you imagine if you just bought a 3D printer and started manufacturing basic goods?

01:48:47.000 Like you bought a bunch of ABS and like, what do people need?

01:48:49.000 What can you make out of plastic and get printed and then sell it on the shelf?

01:48:53.000 Custom built parts that you can't easily get unless they're shipped from China.

01:48:57.000 You could just now 3D print them if you have the right skills to do so.

01:49:00.000 And if you have a 3D printer, you can tell your friends, you know, just a little bit of profit on top and I'll print it up for you and they'll be ready in a couple hours.

01:49:07.000 It's a lot of work.

01:49:08.000 I mean, we have a 3D printer here.

01:49:10.000 I'm still trying to get the basic kind of understanding of it.

01:49:14.000 But it's fun.

01:49:15.000 It's really cool stuff.

01:49:18.000 Patrick Mulligan says the Jacobin, Biden, Jesus cover was an obvious joke.

01:49:22.000 You know, we realized that at the end, like maybe it was supposed to be tongue in cheek.

01:49:27.000 I guess the issue is there were too many posts from actual leftists.

01:49:30.000 I referenced it where they talked about the sun breaking, like the clouds breaking, the sunlight beaming down on Biden.

01:49:36.000 And so I was like, why would I assume that was a joke when they've been tweeting all of this stuff nonstop?

01:49:39.000 To be fair, Jacobin is leftist, not establishment necessarily.

01:49:43.000 And so they've been critical of Democrats.

01:49:45.000 So we probably should have caught that one.

01:49:46.000 And that's on us.

01:49:47.000 By all means, feel free to rag on us.

01:49:48.000 I'm sure the leftists are.

01:49:50.000 Scott Hale says, Tim, big question.

01:49:51.000 Why won't a social media platform pay a percentage of data, info revenue, and ad revenue to all its participants?

01:49:58.000 I feel like this helps both parties lift up the bottom of society.

01:50:01.000 5% would be big for most.

01:50:05.000 Maybe, but Twitter's got, what, 300 million users?

01:50:09.000 Their profits aren't nearly that high.

01:50:10.000 You'd get a penny.

01:50:12.000 I've heard people say the whole, like, buy your data, own your data stuff, and I'm like, they make .1 of a cent, you know?

01:50:20.000 Mines is doing it.

01:50:20.000 If you sign up for Mines Plus, so it's like, I don't know, it is $10 a month or something, then you get a, they split 25% of the revenue with the user base, the Mines Plus user base.

01:50:31.000 Interesting.

01:50:34.000 I mean, it feels like you should- there's some way for you to make money off the fact that you're allowing yourself to see advertising.

01:50:42.000 I mean, it feels like I should be paid to look at advertising, like, in a monetary form through the social networks.

01:50:50.000 Yeah, it's more than that.

01:50:51.000 It's based on the activity that you drive through Minds+.

01:50:55.000 If you have 100 people who are in the pro program paying $10, that means Minds makes $1,000 and then pays out $250 back to the users.

01:51:03.000 It's kind of pointless.

01:51:05.000 But if you're the one that does a lot of activity, you might put $10 in but get $40 back.

01:51:11.000 So it's not about percentage, it's about activity-based.

01:51:14.000 Yeah, they pay back of their revenue, they pay back 25% of it, divided equally amongst the people.

01:51:20.000 Like Substack.

01:51:21.000 Is that what it does?

01:51:23.000 Well, I mean, you draw people eyeballs to content, either on a social network or on a website, and they're kind of just the managers of the ads placements and revenue collection.

01:51:35.000 I think Brave also shares ads that you see on their platform.

01:51:40.000 All right, let's see.

01:51:41.000 Texas Horse Rescue says, count me in, Matt.

01:51:43.000 Texas spends a fortune on state contracts with these tech giants.

01:51:46.000 Hit them in the wallet.

01:51:47.000 Stop. 1.00

01:51:47.000 Hate. 1.00

01:51:47.000 Create. 1.00

01:51:48.000 Good ideas change the world.

01:51:49.000 Texas is at the top.

01:51:50.000 I was just there in Austin, and that's at the top of our list for this initiative.

01:51:55.000 And I look forward to seeing you at our online training session a week from now.

01:51:59.000 Jason M says, give us a website, please.

01:52:01.000 I want to work with your guest.

01:52:02.000 Tell us how.

01:52:03.000 Lookaheadamerica.org.

01:52:04.000 Right on.

01:52:07.000 Garhent says, put out a digital magazine for D&D adventurers and content as part of TimCast.com donation.

01:52:14.000 Imagine having orcs being savage and drow actually being blue.

01:52:18.000 Wizards of the Coast has removed that.

01:52:21.000 Find writers?

01:52:22.000 Ian, you want to make D&D books?

01:52:24.000 Should we just create like a mythology of our own?

01:52:27.000 Call it something different, but use elves and dwarves and dark dwarves and drow and drake?

01:52:31.000 Hold on, hold on, hold on.

01:52:31.000 We were talking about doing a culture war D&D kind of thing that was like way over the top.

01:52:36.000 Yeah.

01:52:37.000 Yeah, you know, I mean, the rule sets open source.

01:52:40.000 So do they just want like a magazine, like a story art or a digital magazine for D&D adventurers?

01:52:47.000 So badass.

01:52:48.000 I wasn't cool enough to play Dungeons and Dragons as a kid.

01:52:50.000 You're always cool enough.

01:52:53.000 Let's see.

01:52:54.000 It's Just Me says, Matt, I tried to donate to lookaheadamerica.com and it wouldn't allow me to donate.

01:52:59.000 Is it lookamerica.org?

01:53:01.000 Look ahead America.

01:53:02.000 Lookaheadamerica.org.

01:53:04.000 I think this is amazing and I've been encouraging friends to get involved.

01:53:08.000 Hope to be on the Wednesday training.

01:53:10.000 Sounds good.

01:53:10.000 Cool.

01:53:12.000 Let's see where we're at now.

01:53:13.000 Uncultured Barbarian says... Well, interesting.

01:53:16.000 Check out Operation Trust sometime because it's basically Q but in the 1920 Soviet Union.

01:53:21.000 They used well-known generals to convince the monarchist that they had a secret plan in the works to bring back the

01:53:26.000 Tsar and the Bolsheviks. 0.54

01:53:28.000 Sound... well, interesting. I mean, that's one way to do it, right?

01:53:32.000 Let's see.

01:53:35.000 Nodai says, I'm a 20-year-old from enemy lines here on Long Island, and I can say that we Gen Z is a bit more right-wing that some give credit for.

01:53:44.000 It seems to me that patriotism is a form of counterculture.

01:53:47.000 It is.

01:53:48.000 It's true.

01:53:49.000 Mr. Hunt, first name Mike, says, a nation in distress.

01:53:54.000 We are turning our flags upside down.

01:53:56.000 Many people are.

01:53:57.000 I've seen that.

01:53:58.000 Yeah.

01:54:00.000 I love this debate.

01:54:01.000 I would love to go way, way deep on this, because I think it's so pervasive in society.

01:54:04.000 Video games, undoubtedly, are pervasive in society.

01:54:06.000 a good think it's free expression.

01:54:09.000 I love this debate.

01:54:10.000 We should I would love to go like way way deep on this because I think it's like so

01:54:13.000 pervasive in society.

01:54:14.000 Video games undoubtedly are pervasive in society and I love it.

01:54:20.000 Brady says so when does the division go from game to documentary?

01:54:24.000 A lot of people pointed out that DC looks like The Division 2.

01:54:27.000 Have you guys ever played The Division 2?

01:54:29.000 No, but I remember hearing that it had references to Dark Winter, the official war game that happened, that Joe Biden said is going to happen.

01:54:38.000 Amazing choice of words, Joe.

01:54:41.000 So Operation Dark Winter was a war game about a pandemic.

01:54:45.000 The Division, the first game that came out, you're in New York, it's quarantined, a virus has been released, and Directive 51 has been enacted because the country is in danger, and Directive 51 gives the ability to create a new continuity of government, essentially override the existing government, and then you are the Division, agents going in to stop these rogue groups.

01:55:05.000 So then the Division 2 takes place in D.C.

01:55:08.000 and there's barricades and fences everywhere and rogue groups around D.C.

01:55:11.000 It's a really good game.

01:55:13.000 I played both pretty extensively.

01:55:15.000 Yeah, good fun.

01:55:16.000 The New York design was amazing.

01:55:19.000 I remember living in New York and playing it and explaining to people that I knew where everything was because I lived here and I knew where it was.

01:55:27.000 It's like, oh, we gotta go to Radio City Music Hall.

01:55:28.000 I know where that is, just follow me.

01:55:30.000 Like, everyone else is like, we'll look on the map.

01:55:32.000 You don't need to.

01:55:32.000 I live here, it's just down the corner and we turn around.

01:55:35.000 It wasn't to scale or anything like that.

01:55:38.000 Fran Pham says, Ian, there are Native Americans in Red Dead Redemption 2.

01:55:44.000 In fact, the later half of the game is centered on them.

01:55:46.000 Red Dead Redemption 2 mostly doesn't have the natives violently attack you and vice versa, because that's, well, you know, not PC.

01:55:52.000 I know.

01:55:54.000 For better or worse.

01:55:57.000 Let's see where we're at.

01:55:58.000 That might be true.

01:56:00.000 Sinjito says impulse to cause harm.

01:56:03.000 Ian needs some therapy or something, man.

01:56:05.000 That might be true.

01:56:07.000 Joshua Brunson says Ian and Tim's discussions are the best.

01:56:10.000 You see, that's entirely the point.

01:56:12.000 You belong here, Josh.

01:56:13.000 Goatman Jack says, I love when Tim and Ian get heated.

01:56:19.000 LMAO.

01:56:19.000 Especially when it's about video games.

01:56:22.000 I feel bad about trying to broker peace because maybe I just should have thrown some kindling on the fire.

01:56:26.000 What do you think about movies?

01:56:31.000 Welcome to my world.

01:56:33.000 You should have joined my side and you should have joined Ian's side.

01:56:37.000 But not like argue with us.

01:56:40.000 Goating us on.

01:56:41.000 Luke's just like, you're so right, Tim.

01:56:43.000 Don't take this from them.

01:56:46.000 I won't, I promise.

01:56:46.000 What did someone say?

01:56:49.000 HTTR says, Ian, please don't carjack anyone.

01:56:52.000 I won't, I promise.

01:56:55.000 George Uricich says, in 2077, what makes someone a criminal?

01:56:59.000 Gaming.

01:57:00.000 That's the joke from the commercial.

01:57:03.000 Isn't it like illegal to game in China?

01:57:05.000 They banned online gaming?

01:57:07.000 Well, some people are so compulsively obsessed with it that they started to, like, ban people from gaming too much because it creates too much social harm.

01:57:17.000 But there was something about they didn't want them interacting with the outside world, so they, like, ceased their ability to play multiplayer games with, like, Americans.

01:57:27.000 I don't remember that.

01:57:28.000 Dalimar says Ian is stepping on it.

01:57:30.000 Youth crime stats have gone down.

01:57:32.000 All crime.

01:57:33.000 As the rise of video game play over 20 years, stop equating internet trolls and sick jokes with FPS.

01:57:42.000 Sporkwitch says, books were blamed for deviance, then comics, then rock music, now video games.

01:57:47.000 It's the same progression of scapegoats as always.

01:57:50.000 No evidence that it's causative.

01:57:51.000 Some correlation with violent people being drawn to them.

01:57:54.000 Interesting.

01:57:54.000 That's a good point.

01:57:55.000 Oh, yeah. 0.92

01:57:56.000 Maybe you're just a violent person, Ian. 0.76

01:57:58.000 Oh, you know me so well, Tim.

01:57:59.000 But no one really wants to talk about the root cause of violence.

01:58:02.000 That's the thing.

01:58:02.000 It's always scapegoated, so you guys made a very, very good point.

01:58:05.000 What do you think it is?

01:58:06.000 Well, it's demons, obviously.

01:58:07.000 They enter your soul at night.

01:58:09.000 It's probably demons.

01:58:09.000 And then you wake up like...

01:58:12.000 Social economic conditions, fatherless homes, you know, there's things to really argue here.

01:58:17.000 There's things that we should really have a conversation about but that's never going to happen because it's all something else.

01:58:22.000 I feel like Trump was a good example of people that didn't have like strong relations with their father would would look for like a strong male figure and he just offered something.

01:58:31.000 So the first time that they'd seen that and that's why he has a lot of like young Well, Jordan Peterson was giving purpose and responsibility to young men.

01:58:45.000 And that's why they were drawn to him.

01:58:46.000 He said, find the heaviest thing you can carry and carry it.

01:58:49.000 So I think one of the big factors in today's day and age is the millennial generation and much of Gen Z, you have the leftists who have found purpose in social justice.

01:59:00.000 And then you had a bunch of not super politically active people with no purpose.

01:59:04.000 And then they found someone like Jordan Peterson, the left, realizing that their opportunity to radicalize and indoctrinate was being stopped by someone like Peterson, called him a Nazi and all right and all that stuff, when he was literally just like a self-help psychologist, being like, you should work on yourself and be responsible.

01:59:19.000 And they're like, no!

01:59:21.000 Don't teach them to be responsible and have purpose in their lives.

01:59:24.000 We need to tell them the only path to purpose is through us.

01:59:28.000 So he was a threat.

01:59:28.000 He studied, like, the Gulag Archipelago and the rise of totalitarianism.

01:59:32.000 He's like, I've studied the Nazis. 0.90

01:59:33.000 I know where they come from.

01:59:35.000 And they're like, he's a Nazi.

01:59:36.000 It's like, what is going on?

01:59:38.000 We have a very important super chat.

01:59:39.000 Cassetto says, everyone is always focused on the idea that video games make people violent, but I'm over here in the corner trying to choose the dialogue option that doesn't upset the NPC.

01:59:48.000 Yeah, always plays a good guy.

01:59:48.000 Yeah, it's a really good point.

01:59:50.000 The first playthrough.

01:59:51.000 No, you know, but yes, there's a funny meme where it was like, now that I've beaten the game through as a good guy in my first playthrough, I'm going to play as evil.

02:00:00.000 And then it shows like, I can't remember which game it was, but there was someone asked, like, do you like my work of art?

02:00:06.000 It's taken me a long time and I've worked very hard on it.

02:00:07.000 You can choose.

02:00:08.000 It's the worst thing I've ever seen or like, it's terrible.

02:00:10.000 And then it showed a picture of a, like a guy gaming, crying, like pressing the button.

02:00:15.000 Like he couldn't, he couldn't insult the NPC.

02:00:17.000 It hurt his feelings.

02:00:18.000 That's funny.

02:00:20.000 Let's see.

02:00:24.000 We'll move down here a little bit.

02:00:25.000 Daniel Bundrick says the children of the revolution always eat their parents.

02:00:29.000 Oof.

02:00:33.000 We got a lot of super chats.

02:00:34.000 We got too many.

02:00:34.000 It's because we got heated.

02:00:36.000 You can tell the chronological order because it's mirroring how our conversation.

02:00:40.000 Then we got to video game discussion. 0.99

02:00:43.000 It's funny when you watch the live chat along with videos, some people are like behind and they'll be like, so you'll see the chat, they'll be like, ah, Ian's an idiot. 1.00

02:00:50.000 And they'll be like, oh, I can't wait to see what Ian said that makes him an idiot. 0.89

02:00:54.000 Daniel Maxwell says, what Ian is saying was also said about Dungeons and Dragons before video games became common. 0.95

02:00:59.000 In both cases, the only people who actually do engage in violence as a result were those who did not have a firm grasp on reality.

02:01:07.000 Yeah, remember the D&D scare?

02:01:08.000 It was like in the 80s?

02:01:10.000 They were claiming it was like demonic and Magic the Gathering had to change their art because religious groups were offended by it.

02:01:20.000 Let's see what we got here.

02:01:21.000 Akapot says, Be fair to Ian, Tim.

02:01:23.000 Don't harm your team dynamic for arguing micro versus macro.

02:01:27.000 Ian wasn't arguing on the macro level.

02:01:29.000 Listen to his insights better, bro.

02:01:30.000 We can all do this better.

02:01:32.000 It's what we need most right now.

02:01:33.000 Well, there you go.

02:01:37.000 Jack Gilcry says the military, according to ex-trainers, use realistic video training simulators in part to desensitize soldiers to killing.

02:01:45.000 Immersion in realistic killing may not cause violence but it makes it easier.

02:01:49.000 Interesting.

02:01:54.000 Lizard says, Hi Tim, I'm a 19-year-old libertarian girl, very grateful for your show.

02:01:58.000 My coworkers talk about causing harm to Trump supporters at rallies like it's nothing.

02:02:03.000 Crazy times.

02:02:04.000 I'd love to see you have Kyle Kulinski and or Jordan Peterson on.

02:02:08.000 I would love to have either of those individuals on the challenge with someone like Kyle's.

02:02:12.000 We can't tell someone, hey, don't do your show, come do our show.

02:02:14.000 They're gonna be like, but I have to do my show.

02:02:15.000 And it's like, yeah, I get it.

02:02:16.000 I was thinking we should get Jordan and his wife when we get him.

02:02:19.000 Or Mikayla might come too. 1.00

02:02:20.000 Yeah.

02:02:21.000 Well, maybe we could do a weekend special with Kyle.

02:02:24.000 Does he do shows on the weekend?

02:02:25.000 I don't know.

02:02:26.000 I wouldn't mind working extra on a Saturday or Sunday.

02:02:29.000 I'm down.

02:02:29.000 I would like to take Kyle to a range.

02:02:31.000 Yeah, let's do that.

02:02:33.000 That'd be fun.

02:02:33.000 He's a cool dude.

02:02:34.000 He really is.

02:02:34.000 Kyle and Crystal Ball are really awesome.

02:02:39.000 There are a lot of people on the left and a lot of people on the right who are both grifters.

02:02:42.000 I like to give credit where credit is due, and I think Crystal Ball and Kyle are rad.

02:02:46.000 Crystal was great until she banned me from her show. 1.00

02:02:48.000 In the middle of the show.

02:02:49.000 In the middle of the show she texted her producer and he came over and said, you're out of here.

02:02:53.000 What happened?

02:02:54.000 Well, I made a joke and I didn't mean it as an insult.

02:02:57.000 I didn't mean as an insult per se because in many circles this is a compliment and was the reason that, you know, the type of person people said we should nominate for president of the Republican Party.

02:03:05.000 I made a joke about Beto O'Rourke being a beta.

02:03:10.000 What show?

02:03:11.000 Crystal and Cigar?

02:03:12.000 Beta that's that's what I said and so they kicked you off in middle of the show kicked me off

02:03:17.000 And I was invited many time crystal ball Crystal, but what crystal and cigar or what yeah really

02:03:24.000 yeah?

02:03:24.000 I was on the show a few times their producer loved me his easy trip

02:03:28.000 I went in and then they all came on me like after I made that comment

02:03:32.000 I was like well I tell you why it's cuz he ran away from the police and

02:03:35.000 Didn't accept responsibility for it's the cursing everywhere like immature child and and running around the

02:03:40.000 skateboard because I think beta males Basically an immature guy right this might take on it

02:03:44.000 although beta male was supposed to be like the Savior right?

02:03:47.000 I'll see it was good at skateboarding I'm sure he was great at it.

02:03:50.000 Cause I can do a switch blunt.

02:03:52.000 I've seen your, I've seen your, uh, whatever it is you guys ride on the ramp.

02:03:55.000 I've seen the ramp.

02:03:56.000 No, but I said that.

02:03:57.000 And then the other guest jumped on me for like promoting toxic masculinity. 1.00

02:04:01.000 And she got, it's basically like I used an ethnic slur.

02:04:04.000 It was her reaction.

02:04:06.000 And we went to commercial break, texted a producer, very upset.

02:04:10.000 Producer came over and said, Hey, you're out of here.

02:04:12.000 And then they never brought me back.

02:04:13.000 So I've been banned from the show for that.

02:04:15.000 They wouldn't just let you be like, Hey, don't do that again.

02:04:17.000 Well, no, I'm like, I would tell you this is why I use those words and you disagree.

02:04:21.000 Okay, that's cool.

02:04:22.000 But nope.

02:04:22.000 It was like a bummer.

02:04:23.000 Yeah.

02:04:24.000 Yeah.

02:04:24.000 I like the alpha beta gamma talk with like gamma.

02:04:29.000 Well, I think of myself as an Omega.

02:04:30.000 I was like, what is an Omega?

02:04:32.000 Cause I'm the Omega man.

02:04:33.000 You're not an Omega.

02:04:34.000 Omegas are like, Omega.

02:04:36.000 They don't really, they've kind of given up on being the Alpha. 0.92

02:04:38.000 Omega's are black, no, Omega's are black billed individuals who are short and have physical defects. 0.61

02:04:45.000 I was getting, I was getting all sorts of different descriptions of what the Omega was.

02:04:48.000 An Alpha male is a confident leader.

02:04:50.000 Betas are those that surround themselves, that surround the Alpha.

02:04:54.000 So people think Beta means weak, it doesn't.

02:04:56.000 The Beta is Lieutenant.

02:04:57.000 It's like a subservient personality.

02:05:00.000 No, no, no, that's not true.

02:05:01.000 An alpha male would be Trump.

02:05:02.000 And then Dad Scavino would be a beta.

02:05:04.000 That's not an insult.

02:05:04.000 political speak that's what the world of politic beta male consultants was met it's like

02:05:08.000 the opposite of a trump an alpha male would be trump and then dad's cabina would be a beta

02:05:12.000 that's not an insult it means that he's the he's the second in command or he's one of trump's

02:05:16.000 lieutenants that definitions i get i get it then you have omega males

02:05:20.000 omega males are the hunchbacked backed like you know 1.00

02:05:24.000 don't look at me i don't hear and they can't socially interact starting to identify with that okay

02:05:28.000 go on yeah so people think beta means we can

02:05:32.000 know, ineffectual or whatever. 0.93

02:05:34.000 The beta is the guy who's standing behind, there's like a tall guy in a bar going like, huh, you're so dumb, I'm tough, and then his friend goes, yeah, you tell him boss, then high-fives him. 0.94

02:05:42.000 The Omega's the outcasts. 0.86

02:05:43.000 Right.

02:05:44.000 That's me, I think.

02:05:45.000 The betas are high-fiving the alphas, the alpha goads.

02:05:47.000 I've been so jaded by the situation that I'm just here to play.

02:05:51.000 But beta, you're right.

02:05:52.000 In colloquial speak, it's come to represent, you know, like weak Well, not necessarily weak, but just non-threatening.

02:05:59.000 And for a while, I was sitting at a political conference and this consultant to Mike Pence sat next to me and was talking about the fact that, you know, in 2016, we really need to nominate a beta male because that's who the women really want. 0.65

02:06:11.000 And that's sort of the context I used it with on Crystal Balls.

02:06:14.000 Well, to go back to that, because and apparently that caused a big controversy.

02:06:19.000 And it's like the top six of my Google search results are, you know, the controversy.

02:06:24.000 And I got death threats from that.

02:06:26.000 So, you know, and I'm not saying that I complain about it.

02:06:31.000 I always sort of wince when I see somebody in the public complaining about death threats.

02:06:34.000 First of all, if somebody's going to kill you, they're not going to threaten you first.

02:06:36.000 Secondly, everybody who sticks their neck out even a little bit gets all kinds of crazy stuff, but it just solicits so much of a reaction that it got.

02:06:43.000 Yeah, I was searching all this stuff a couple nights ago and was noticing how it was giving me the descriptions of the identity politics definitions of it all.

02:06:52.000 Beta on beta is a woman and two women in a beta woman. 1.00

02:06:57.000 And it was giving me all the transsexual people type descriptions about it all.

02:07:02.000 I had no idea that it was involved in the LGBTQ community.

02:07:08.000 Yeah, me neither.

02:07:09.000 In fact, you know, the funniest thing about them kicking me off for calling him a beta male and, you know, making fun of his name, the alliteration, is that all of their supporters got on Twitter and said, no, you're the beta male.

02:07:21.000 It's like, oh, okay.

02:07:22.000 All right.

02:07:23.000 I guess it's whatever.

02:07:24.000 Yeah.

02:07:24.000 Yeah, sure.

02:07:25.000 Whatever.

02:07:26.000 That's a bummer, though.

02:07:28.000 I guess nobody's perfect, but I've been on with Crystal and Cigar.

02:07:32.000 Sounds like we gotta have you and Crystal on the show. 0.99

02:07:33.000 I was there before Cigar.

02:07:34.000 It was Buck, who is a great guy.

02:07:36.000 Oh, that's right.

02:07:37.000 That was a while ago.

02:07:37.000 Buck Sexton.

02:07:38.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:07:40.000 Well, it would be fun to have one of these lefty personalities come and learn about firearms. 0.61

02:07:47.000 Just don't call anyone a beta male, okay?

02:07:49.000 I mean, you know what's a real bummer is that we're always more than willing to have any lefty personality on the show.

02:07:56.000 But I think too many people are just grifters.

02:08:01.000 You know what I mean?

02:08:02.000 That their whole game is just riling up the people behind them.

02:08:06.000 They got their base behind them cheering and clapping and they're gonna say whatever they gotta say to get that attention.

02:08:10.000 So, you know, we've had on a few personalities that were, like, libertarian, left libertarian a little bit, and we've gotten thumbs down and people in the comments, like, yelling at us and stuff, and I'm like, I don't care, dude.

02:08:20.000 Like, I'm not, we're not making an echo chamber for you.

02:08:22.000 We're trying to get multiple voices on the show.

02:08:24.000 We'll argue.

02:08:25.000 Ian and I just argued.

02:08:26.000 We argue, you know what I mean?

02:08:27.000 It's like, we're not gonna just say what you want to hear.

02:08:30.000 If you want that, there's a bunch of other places you can go get it, so.

02:08:34.000 Speaking of that, SeasOFay says, Tim, please put shoe on head.

02:08:39.000 Put your shoe on your head.

02:08:40.000 Oh, put shoe on head! 1.00

02:08:41.000 Oh, I thought he was saying have shoe on head on the show.

02:08:43.000 Oh.

02:08:43.000 Uh, I don't have any shoes up here.

02:08:45.000 I'm actually barefoot right now.

02:08:47.000 Well, you can- you can get it.

02:08:48.000 There you go. 0.98

02:08:49.000 I'll put your nasty shoe. 1.00

02:08:50.000 You're walking around with dog poop everywhere with your little- I clean up the dog poop. 0.98

02:08:54.000 Luke's dog's name is Fumble Bump, by the way.

02:08:56.000 No!

02:08:56.000 Atlas.

02:08:57.000 No, because what happened was we were in the basement and Luke had treats and was trying to call her over, but you were calling her Freedom.

02:09:03.000 Yeah.

02:09:03.000 And then I just made up a gibberish word while shaking Swedish gummies and yelled, Fumble Bump.

02:09:09.000 And then she like looked left and right.

02:09:10.000 I kept yelling and Luke's like, Freedom.

02:09:11.000 And then she ran to me.

02:09:12.000 So I'm like, done.

02:09:14.000 Nobody named her Atlas.

02:09:15.000 He keeps calling her Fumble Bump all the time.

02:09:17.000 Fumble Bump. 0.99

02:09:18.000 Whatever.

02:09:18.000 Yeah.

02:09:19.000 Keep calling her that. 0.54

02:09:20.000 I'm like, you're going to make her like crazy. 0.99

02:09:22.000 No, it's just going to be a command that only I can use with your dog.

02:09:26.000 And then when I'm, like, breaking into your trailer at night, she's growling, I'll go, and then she'll go happy, and like, oh, I know what that means.

02:09:33.000 That means my friend is here.

02:09:34.000 Why are you breaking into my trailer?

02:09:36.000 He did this once, by the way.

02:09:37.000 With Alex Jones.

02:09:38.000 Yeah, Luke was sleeping, and Alex pulled up, and I was like, I had the camera, and I was like, yeah, that's good.

02:09:43.000 Yeah, me and Alex have a turbulent history, so it was weird.

02:09:47.000 I either meditate or take a nap before the show.

02:09:50.000 I was taking a nap and I wake up with Alex Jones professing his love for me, telling me that we were in a relationship before.

02:09:57.000 I'm like, dude, we were about to fight last time we talked about 10 years ago, and now you're here in my room.

02:10:04.000 I'm gonna put that footage up.

02:10:06.000 I have the footage.

02:10:07.000 I just gotta get it for my GoPro.

02:10:09.000 And then you'll exploit me to the fullest degree.

02:10:13.000 But at least I get to sell my t-shirts.

02:10:15.000 At thebestpoliticalshirts.com E.W.

02:10:19.000 says, Tim, new Timcast Premium member here.

02:10:22.000 Evan W., when you have a chance, contact me.

02:10:24.000 I'd like to intro you to a data center to put your vids on for better throughput.

02:10:28.000 Got good ideas for you.

02:10:30.000 We're actually upgrading everything, so we might be solving a lot of these problems, but feel free to email members at timcast.com.

02:10:38.000 Dude, Ben set up the system where I've got dual wires coming into my room.

02:10:42.000 One can be a server, Yeah.

02:10:44.000 A whole server network.

02:10:45.000 We can't handle a server, though.

02:10:46.000 It would be great if we had our own servers, but you need a ridiculous amount of bandwidth for that that we do not have.

02:10:53.000 Yeah.

02:10:53.000 A lot of people requesting stuff and all that whatnot.

02:10:57.000 IronGhost1982 says, what race class specs do you guys play in WoW?

02:11:02.000 Well, I haven't played.

02:11:03.000 I played Shadowlands a little bit when it came out, and I kind of just rolled my eyes like, eh.

02:11:07.000 You know, there's only so much I can do with the story.

02:11:10.000 And, uh, but I worked really hard to get a Void Elf.

02:11:14.000 And now I have a Void Elf Rogue. 0.91

02:11:16.000 Because, um... It's been too long since I played.

02:11:19.000 But the Void Elf has the teleport ability.

02:11:22.000 I don't know the Void Elf new race.

02:11:24.000 Yeah, it's from, um, I think Legion.

02:11:27.000 You gotta complete, maybe it's not, I think it's Legion.

02:11:29.000 Maybe I'm wrong.

02:11:29.000 You have to complete a whole bunch of quests.

02:11:31.000 It's been a while since I played.

02:11:32.000 It was like a year ago.

02:11:33.000 And then once you finally complete everything, you unlock this special race where they have an ability where they throw a rift.

02:11:39.000 And then you can blink, like teleport to the rift.

02:11:41.000 So I love doing PvP with my rogue, and then I'll like slice and dice somebody up, and then once I kill one of their dudes and they're about to kill me, I just throw the rift and then go the other direction.

02:11:48.000 Tim is pure rogue, by the way.

02:11:50.000 We played last year.

02:11:51.000 He was human rogue. 0.95

02:11:52.000 I think that guy was a human. 0.61

02:11:53.000 No, wow. 0.98

02:11:54.000 You were a human rogue? 0.99

02:11:55.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:11:55.000 Well, I unlocked Void Elf Rogue and then made a Void Elf Rogue.

02:11:57.000 Mine's a Night Elf Druid.

02:11:59.000 That's my go-to.

02:12:00.000 Which is so Chris, that's funny.

02:12:01.000 Rogue is just the best.

02:12:02.000 You can walk around, be free.

02:12:03.000 But a rogue, a druid can turn into a cat and play like a rogue.

02:12:06.000 Not a, stealth is not as good.

02:12:08.000 Stealth is not as good.

02:12:09.000 No, it's not.

02:12:09.000 And, uh, you know.

02:12:10.000 Druid can heal, though.

02:12:12.000 That's true.

02:12:12.000 Druids, druids are pretty fun.

02:12:13.000 Because they can do everything.

02:12:14.000 We got a big ol' super chat here.

02:12:17.000 SH says, these people saying games desensitize you to violence against others are just wrong.

02:12:21.000 The amount of problems we soldiers face after killing sticks with us for a long time and causes many problems from drinking to suicide.

02:12:28.000 Nothing helps us deal with taking another life.

02:12:31.000 Yeah, man.

02:12:33.000 Life is not... this stuff is... yeah, it's bad.

02:12:36.000 The DoubleX54 says, hey Mac, I'm in the Northern VA area.

02:12:41.000 How do I volunteer for your organization when you guys are up here?

02:12:44.000 Uh, well, we're getting started there.

02:12:45.000 We have a volunteer form on our site where you can tell us what you're capable of doing, what you have to offer.

02:12:51.000 Look at america.org slash volunteer.

02:12:54.000 So sign up, please.

02:12:56.000 Alright, let's see.

02:12:57.000 We'll just grab a couple more Super Chats.

02:12:59.000 Gavin Roth says, I think y'all were talking about USS Cole bombing back in 2000 in Yemen.

02:13:05.000 Correct.

02:13:05.000 Suicide bombers disguised themselves as a small merchant ship and detonated right next to the Cole.

02:13:10.000 That bombing completely changed security posture for the Navy.

02:13:13.000 Wow, crazy.

02:13:15.000 Alex Flores says, why no Ben Shapiro?

02:13:17.000 Ben Shapiro, you've been on his Sunday special.

02:13:20.000 So, in order to do that, and this is before we had good internet, I had to record, we had a low quality audio call.

02:13:29.000 And then I recorded with a camera hard to the camera, took the memory card out, and had it driven up three hours away, and then uploaded from a high-speed source to a shared server.

02:13:40.000 They could download the footage, and then they synchronized it with the call and their footage on their end.

02:13:44.000 It was not easy.

02:13:45.000 And all these lefties were like, you did a Skype with Ben Shapiro.

02:13:47.000 And I'm like, first of all, that was his show, not our show.

02:13:49.000 We don't do phone calls or Skype calls for a variety of reasons.

02:13:54.000 But we welcome people to come here.

02:13:55.000 And I tell people, listen, did you realize that Nobody has any screens.

02:13:59.000 I've got one screen, and then no one else has, like, everyone's got their own phones and their own laptops.

02:14:03.000 We just, we're not set up for it, and I'll tell you this, a lot of other big podcasts won't do it either.

02:14:08.000 There are some, who I'm not going to call out, but they did it a few times, and then, like, I've talked to a lot of these people, and they're like, wow, that was a mistake.

02:14:14.000 It, like, doesn't work.

02:14:15.000 The engagement goes way down.

02:14:17.000 People aren't happy with it.

02:14:17.000 They complain about it.

02:14:19.000 There are people who just want to see, you know, internet blood sports.

02:14:21.000 We don't do that.

02:14:22.000 We like having conversations in person.

02:14:25.000 All right, let's see.

02:14:26.000 Someone mentioned that Donald.Win is gone.

02:14:30.000 But it's now, I believe, was it Patriots?

02:14:31.000 Patriots.Win.

02:14:32.000 Yeah, Patriots.Win. 0.98

02:14:33.000 It's the same thing.

02:14:34.000 They just changed the name, I guess, because Donald Trump's not president anymore.

02:14:37.000 So that makes sense.

02:14:38.000 All right, we'll do just one more.

02:14:40.000 Crazy Eye says, M4's are full auto now.

02:14:43.000 Burst stamped out and has auto now.

02:14:46.000 Was in National Guard.

02:14:47.000 Got out in 2019.

02:14:49.000 Interesting.

02:14:50.000 Well, everybody, thank you all so much for hanging out.

02:14:51.000 Make sure you smash the like button, subscribe to the notification bell.

02:14:54.000 Go to TimCast.com, become a member because we are going to have a bonus segment.

02:14:57.000 But Matt, do you want to mention your organization again and anything people need to know about how to help and get involved?

02:15:02.000 Sure.

02:15:02.000 I mean, we're looking for volunteers.

02:15:03.000 We're also looking for donors.

02:15:05.000 Everything helps that you can do.

02:15:07.000 Right on.

02:15:07.000 And Luke, I hear you have t-shirts.

02:15:08.000 in, we'll find a way to put you to work as a grassroots lobbyist or helping us register

02:15:14.000 new voters.

02:15:15.000 So it's lookaheadamerica.org.

02:15:18.000 Right on.

02:15:19.000 And Luke, I hear you have t-shirts.

02:15:20.000 I think it's fair to say I have the best political shirts because I own the domain thebestpoliticalshirts.com.

02:15:28.000 See what I did there?

02:15:30.000 You can also find me on LukeWeAreChange on Twitter and Instagram.

02:15:36.000 So yeah, check me out there.

02:15:38.000 Thanks.

02:15:39.000 When you go to The Best Political Shirts, it jumps you to the We Are Change store.

02:15:42.000 Yeah, check out the bikinis. 1.00

02:15:44.000 Check out the socks.

02:15:45.000 Defund the media.

02:15:46.000 I tweeted that.

02:15:47.000 Did you steal that from me?

02:15:48.000 I steal everything.

02:15:49.000 I don't know what you're talking about.

02:15:51.000 Everything I see, I just gobble it up.

02:15:52.000 I'm like, that's a good shirt idea.

02:15:53.000 He liberated it.

02:15:55.000 I've been on this venture.

02:15:56.000 YouTube literally turned me into a t-shirt vendor.

02:15:58.000 I mean, getting out the messaging, I probably got more views on my shirts than my videos because of how many different shirts I had to curate to offset me losing my YouTube revenue.

02:16:08.000 Because I used to survive off making money off the YouTube ads.

02:16:11.000 What is this?

02:16:12.000 Do people buy this Trump face sweater?

02:16:15.000 Yes.

02:16:16.000 Yeah, I do.

02:16:16.000 I wear it all the time.

02:16:17.000 It's very obnoxious and it's very, uh, you know, it's, it's peculiar, but, uh, it's, you know, I want to make, uh, a line of clothing with little pictures of animals on it.

02:16:28.000 Yeah.

02:16:29.000 We're going to, I think we've already do that.

02:16:31.000 I know, and I'm gonna do it too.

02:16:32.000 And I'm not gonna do the political... See the I Am A Gorilla shirt that we have?

02:16:36.000 If you wanna get your exclusive I Am A Gorilla t-shirt, go to TimCast.com, click shop, boom, it's right there.

02:16:41.000 And good news, YouTube has finally integrated it into the system, so we are waiting for it to be reviewed.

02:16:47.000 It's funny, it's literally just a gorilla.

02:16:49.000 It says I Am A Gorilla, but YouTube's like, we gotta make sure it's safe!

02:16:51.000 It is a big-brained gorilla, by the way.

02:16:54.000 He's got a big frontal lobe.

02:16:57.000 Smart feller.

02:16:58.000 And so that's why we're going to do the tinfoil hat one soon.

02:17:01.000 Maybe next week.

02:17:02.000 We got it ready to go and everything.

02:17:03.000 And that's going to be special edition which will only sell for probably one week from like a Thursday to Thursday thing.

02:17:08.000 Because people were mentioning their paychecks or whatever on Friday.

02:17:10.000 But, uh, yeah, go to TimCast.com, become a member.

02:17:12.000 We have a bonus segment coming up, but, uh, Ian, you want to mention?

02:17:14.000 Yeah, two things.

02:17:15.000 One, I don't think druids are better than rogues.

02:17:18.000 I think rogues are probably the best.

02:17:19.000 Might even be the best class in the game, but I like the versatility.

02:17:22.000 Personally, I like the versatility of the druid.

02:17:24.000 Uh, number two is I'm Ian Crossland.

02:17:25.000 You can follow me online at Twitter, Mines, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram.

02:17:29.000 And, uh, later on tonight, I'm going to be gaming with Adam Kregler on twitch.tv slash Ian Crossland.

02:17:35.000 Come follow me there and check it out.

02:17:36.000 We're going to be playing Red Dead Redemption 2.

02:17:38.000 Very excited to roll the posse.

02:17:41.000 And thanks for having me, Tim.

02:17:42.000 Well, it'll be fun.

02:17:43.000 Right on.

02:17:43.000 Yeah, so I'm kind of, like, refereeing this wild ride over here.

02:17:48.000 I'm sorry, guys.

02:17:48.000 It's crazy, but you know you love it.

02:17:51.000 I'm Sour Patch Lids on Twitter, L-Y-D-S, and I am real Sour Patch Lids on Mines and Gab and Instagram.

02:17:59.000 Is that right?

02:18:00.000 Something like that.

02:18:01.000 You can find me on all those places.

02:18:02.000 You can follow me on Twitter, Instagram, Mines, at TimCast.

02:18:05.000 Check out my other YouTube channels, YouTube.com slash TimCast, YouTube.com slash TimCastNews.

02:18:09.000 We will be back tomorrow at 8 p.m.

02:18:11.000 live, but don't forget, we're actually gonna have some bonus segments.

02:18:14.000 I believe we might even have more than one.

02:18:15.000 We'll see how things play out, but that's at TimCast.com.

02:18:18.000 Check it out and become a member, and if you do run into any issues, go to email members at TimCast.com.

02:18:24.000 My apologies, we're getting everything sorted, but other than that, we will see you in the bonus segment or tomorrow at 8 p.m.
