Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Twitter SUSPENDS Tim Pool For Calling Out Grooming, Tim Goes OFF w-Zuby

00:00:00.000 you you

00:01:02.000 They got me!

00:01:04.000 Twitter finally got me.

00:01:06.000 I was out, I was doing work, I came back home and I looked at my computer screen and there was a thing, because I had Twitter open, and it said, you are being locked out of your account unless you delete the following tweet.

00:01:18.000 This is why, let me tell you why this is crazy.

00:01:20.000 I was calling out grooming and I don't not like willy-nilly just call people groomers like some people have been doing.

00:01:28.000 So there's one story where, well let me pause a second.

00:01:31.000 We know that Twitter and Reddit have announced they'll ban the term groomer because they say that word applies to all LGBTQ people, which I have certainly argued against quite a bit.

00:01:41.000 And so I had a tweet That was specifically showing a group of adults showing sexual content to children, and I said, yes, they are grooming your kids.

00:01:50.000 Twitter said I had to delete it.

00:01:51.000 Now, I don't care about Twitter.

00:01:54.000 Like, I really don't.

00:01:55.000 And I mentioned this before about Jordan Peters when he got suspended.

00:01:58.000 I was like, just delete it.

00:01:59.000 And then start smack-talking Twitter like crazy.

00:02:03.000 And so, I mean, that's my attitude.

00:02:04.000 Now I'll do a show talking about it.

00:02:06.000 I will use the Twitter platform to ripple out the issue as much as I can.

00:02:11.000 And then the post-millennial wrote, Tim Pool goes to war with Twitter.

00:02:16.000 Because I started pulling up as many stories as I could about Twitter having defended pedophiles.

00:02:21.000 Numerous instances where they have done things, have been called out for, had panic meetings, and they keep doing it.

00:02:27.000 So when I actually call out grooming, legitimately, it wasn't like I was just arguing with some random person.

00:02:33.000 No, I actually had a photo of people grooming children.

00:02:36.000 They deleted that.

00:02:37.000 I'm gonna call him out.

00:02:38.000 So we're gonna talk all about that.

00:02:39.000 We got a couple other stories.

00:02:40.000 Obviously, Joe Biden, he's come out and said there won't be a recession.

00:02:44.000 It's funny, because they changed the definition of recession.

00:02:46.000 Then Biden says there won't be one, which kind of means there probably will be one.

00:02:50.000 So we've got that, and we've got a bunch of other stories.

00:02:53.000 I don't know, whatever.

00:02:54.000 I'm all riled up about the Twitter locking my account thing, and so we'll get into all that.

00:02:59.000 Before we get started, though, We have an awesome sponsor.

00:03:02.000 It's you!

00:03:03.000 You guys, you're sponsoring us.

00:03:04.000 Go to TimCast.com.

00:03:05.000 We've got two things to shout out.

00:03:07.000 The House of Seven Ghosts Part 2, Tales from the Inverted World.

00:03:10.000 If you like true crime, paranormal, history, murder mystery stuff, you will like Tales from the Inverted World.

00:03:16.000 These are like hour-long episodes, and we're putting up this full season on TimCast.com, exclusive for members.

00:03:22.000 And we also have, for those that are more politically-minded, behind-the-scenes in the green room with Carrie Lake.

00:03:27.000 Carrie is amazing. 0.90

00:03:29.000 I'm a big fan.

00:03:29.000 I'm so excited when she says she's coming out and coming on the show.

00:03:33.000 And we had a special Green Room episode with her.

00:03:36.000 That's up at TimCast.com.

00:03:38.000 Right now, on the front page, members only.

00:03:40.000 Really cool behind-the-scenes footage.

00:03:42.000 Of course, we're also launching the Castcastle show really soon, which is like a vamped-up, expanded version of the show.

00:03:50.000 No more PayPal.

00:03:51.000 If you are a member through PayPal, you're fine.

00:03:53.000 You're not going to do anything.

00:03:54.000 But anybody who signs up now will be supporting Parallel Economy, which was co-founded by Dan Bongino, is also partly owned by Rumble, and it is censorship-resistant payment processing.

00:04:03.000 The reason why I got on board with them, for one, I don't want to be censored, and two, I want to put my money where my mouth is, and I would ask you all to do the same.

00:04:10.000 Stop giving your money to people who hate you.

00:04:12.000 Supporting us also supports Rumble because we use Rumble infrastructure.

00:04:15.000 It supports Parallel Economy and that means if more and more businesses start using Parallel Economy and more and more customers are processing transactions through Parallel Economy, then we can knock down PayPal and these other big tech Silicon Valley weirdo cult people and maybe start pushing back against censorship.

00:04:30.000 And I also have another really quick announcement.

00:04:33.000 Shout out to everybody who helped make it possible.

00:04:34.000 We got massive 96-foot billboards in Times Square, ranging from the totally legitimate to the totally absurd.

00:04:41.000 You can see here, it says, Timcast IRL, here's the quote on it, is the best podcast I, a 25- to 54-year-old male, have ever listened to, with a quote from Reactor, YouTube star who is, of course, my brother, plays a fictional character.

00:04:53.000 And then we got Luke Rydkowski, of course, on the other side, parallel, 20 ad sets, 96 feet tall, sending a message.

00:05:00.000 And that message includes a 96-foot-tall advertisement of my rooster.

00:05:07.000 My rooster.

00:05:08.000 A very large ad of my rooster.

00:05:11.000 And so I can tell everybody that I bought an ad in Times Square with a massive picture of my rooster.

00:05:17.000 I was actually told this to be completely honest.

00:05:20.000 And then we also have this funny quote, uh, the best podcast in culture and news.

00:05:24.000 Everybody agrees.

00:05:25.000 At least that's what I was told from me.

00:05:27.000 I got to be honest.

00:05:28.000 I was worried about, you know, people were like, Hey, but if you do stuff like that,

00:05:31.000 it's gotta be a real quote.

00:05:32.000 And I was like, I just said it.

00:05:33.000 I'm like, yeah, but what's your act?

00:05:34.000 I was actually told this to be completely honest.

00:05:36.000 I was actually told that, uh, everybody thinks it's the best.

00:05:39.000 And so I said, we're going to run with it.

00:05:41.000 So anyway, with all that being said, I'm really grateful to have a massive 96 foot, uh, billboard

00:05:46.000 in times square of my rooster.

00:05:48.000 And joining us today to talk about that and more is the wonderful Zuby.

00:05:53.000 What's up, guys?

00:05:54.000 Happy to be back.

00:05:55.000 Thank you for inviting me once again.

00:05:57.000 Absolutely.

00:05:57.000 Who are you, man, for people who may not be familiar?

00:05:59.000 Yeah, sure.

00:05:59.000 My name is Zuby.

00:06:00.000 I'm an independent rapper, author, host of the Real Talk with Zuby podcast.

00:06:06.000 I also do coaching and public speaking.

00:06:08.000 A lot of people know me for different things.

00:06:11.000 People know me for breaking the British women's deadlift record several years ago, featured on a lot of great and wonderful podcasts, including this one right here.

00:06:21.000 And yeah, all around someone who tries to uplift people positively, who does my best to seek the truth and speak the truth and keep it real and authentic.

00:06:32.000 And a lot of people love me for that and some don't.

00:06:35.000 Right on, man.

00:06:36.000 This is going to be a lot of fun.

00:06:37.000 We also have Mary Morgan of Pop Culture Crisis hanging out. 0.98

00:06:39.000 Well, hello!

00:06:40.000 No, Mary, it's scary.

00:06:43.000 So I'm back.

00:06:44.000 I co-host Pop Culture Crisis on YouTube.

00:06:47.000 We talk about movies, celebrities, all the entertainment news over there.

00:06:51.000 It's more lighthearted content than IRL, I would say.

00:06:55.000 So go over there and subscribe.

00:06:57.000 We also, so in all seriousness, when people are like, why did you put a rooster on this billboard?

00:07:01.000 It's actually a massive ad set for all of the website, which includes Mary.

00:07:04.000 She's got a 96 foot billboard of herself in Times Square right now. 0.90

00:07:07.000 Yeah.

00:07:08.000 I kind of wish I had laser eyes in it.

00:07:10.000 Laser eyes?

00:07:10.000 Yeah.

00:07:11.000 We could have done that.

00:07:12.000 We can switch it around.

00:07:13.000 I don't know.

00:07:13.000 We can, well, it's a video.

00:07:15.000 We can make it so that your eyes start glowing.

00:07:16.000 We can just, we just send them the file and they'll do it.

00:07:18.000 We made one.

00:07:19.000 Yeah.

00:07:19.000 Oh.

00:07:20.000 I was just like, can we do that then?

00:07:22.000 Yeah.

00:07:23.000 Okay, cool.

00:07:24.000 All right.

00:07:24.000 Well, we'll get that done.

00:07:25.000 We got Ian.

00:07:26.000 Hi, everyone.

00:07:26.000 Ian Crosland here, iancrosland.net.

00:07:28.000 Zuby, you got a book?

00:07:29.000 That's hot.

00:07:30.000 Yeah, man.

00:07:30.000 I got two books.

00:07:31.000 My children's book, The Candy Calamity, just came out beginning of this month with Brave Books.

00:07:37.000 You can check that out at candycalamity.com or bravebooks.com.

00:07:40.000 And of course, my previous book, Strong Advice, is available at teamzuby.com.

00:07:45.000 So yeah, man, I had the first fitness book for the grownups and now one for the youth.

00:07:51.000 All right, I'm going to ask you a little bit about it later in the show.

00:07:53.000 Yeah, man, we'd love to talk about it.

00:07:54.000 Heck yeah, man!

00:07:56.000 Yeah, I was enjoying reading that kid's book, so hopefully we can talk more about it later.

00:08:00.000 Thank you guys for joining.

00:08:01.000 Alright, here's the first story from the post-millennial writing about me.

00:08:05.000 Very quickly.

00:08:06.000 So, I thought it was really funny because we were pulling up stories and I'm like, what's the biggest news of the day?

00:08:09.000 Is it the recession that we are in that Biden's denying and then Lydia pulls up?

00:08:13.000 Breaking!

00:08:14.000 Breaking news!

00:08:16.000 Tim Pool goes to war with Twitter over groomer controversy.

00:08:20.000 Journalist Tim Pool went to war with Twitter on Monday after the social media platform locked him out of his account for criticizing groomers.

00:08:26.000 And I just went off.

00:08:28.000 I pulled up a whole bunch of stories about Twitter protecting pedophiles.

00:08:31.000 It's not hard.

00:08:32.000 They also blocked me from posting ads.

00:08:34.000 I got two emails.

00:08:35.000 One said, your account is locked.

00:08:36.000 And the other says, you are now ineligible to post advertisements on Twitter.

00:08:39.000 Did you ever?

00:08:40.000 Yeah.

00:08:41.000 I did an ad run for the song we did, Will of the People.

00:08:44.000 It got like three million views.

00:08:46.000 I was like, wow, that's actually better than YouTube.

00:08:50.000 Hey, maybe Twitter's a good medium for putting this stuff- Not anymore, apparently.

00:08:53.000 They said you're blocked forever?

00:08:54.000 They just said my account is now ineligible to run ads.

00:08:57.000 Oh, okay.

00:08:58.000 All because I had a tweet- I can't even pull it up, they make you delete it.

00:09:01.000 There was an image I saw, and it showed adult men showing sexual things to children.

00:09:07.000 Wow.

00:09:08.000 Overtly.

00:09:09.000 This was not an issue of, like, a dude reading a book.

00:09:11.000 Yeah.

00:09:12.000 This was an issue of, I think it was, like, a dude reading a book pointing to sexual things or something like that.

00:09:16.000 I honestly can't remember.

00:09:18.000 But, like, you guys know me.

00:09:19.000 People are like, Tim's a fence-sitter.

00:09:21.000 Why would he do something like this?

00:09:23.000 There are people on Twitter who will just call out overtly anyone as a groomer.

00:09:28.000 Mine was like, I was making a literal point.

00:09:30.000 They're like, hey, look at this.

00:09:31.000 This is not just some dude reading a book.

00:09:34.000 This is overt grooming of children.

00:09:36.000 They locked me out and told me I had to delete it.

00:09:38.000 Wow.

00:09:38.000 So I don't think Twitter matters all that much, to be honest.

00:09:41.000 The amount of people who saw that tweet is in the few thousand.

00:09:44.000 It's like tens of thousands.

00:09:46.000 And I was like...

00:09:47.000 Who cares?

00:09:48.000 Like, what's the impact on society gonna be if a bunch of people like me on Twitter see this thing?

00:09:53.000 I don't care.

00:09:54.000 But what do I do on Twitter?

00:09:56.000 I, you know, ish post.

00:09:57.000 And I make the blue-checky journalists freak out when I post nonsense. 1.00

00:10:00.000 That's more valuable.

00:10:02.000 So, the only people who actually see stuff on Twitter are journalists.

00:10:05.000 And I guess other commentators.

00:10:07.000 So there's no real public value to it, so I just deleted it.

00:10:09.000 But here's ultimately where we get to.

00:10:12.000 I'll read you a few of these stories.

00:10:13.000 EV Magazine.

00:10:14.000 Twitter is a breeding ground for the normalization of pedophilia.

00:10:17.000 Daily Dot. 0.74

00:10:18.000 Twitter accused of letting pedophiles discuss their sexual attraction to children.

00:10:21.000 AP.

00:10:22.000 Twitter is not placing sex offender notices on sex offender accounts.

00:10:25.000 Wow.

00:10:26.000 The Next Web.

00:10:27.000 Twitter lets pedophiles publicly discuss their attraction to minors, Scholar argues.

00:10:31.000 And then I said Twitter actively protects and supports pedophilia.

00:10:34.000 This is... It's just overt and outright right now.

00:10:37.000 Yeah, and the dude, the fact that they suspended your account for what you did is literally that, right?

00:10:43.000 I mean, they're more upset about you saying, hey, look at what these people are doing, than the fact that people are doing that.

00:10:52.000 So they are directly protecting these individuals.

00:10:56.000 Yep.

00:10:57.000 So that's right.

00:10:58.000 Yeah.

00:10:58.000 I get the vibe that when you're in a culture war or any conflict, really, if you establish vulnerability in your foe, you don't want to have fun with it because then that gives them a time to build up a defense mechanism towards it.

00:11:10.000 So like this groomer narrative, it's very effective because people have been grooming children sexually.

00:11:15.000 We see it on, you know, on videos and crazy stuff.

00:11:17.000 But if people just start LOL, groomer, groomer, groomer, you start to see other people establish an immune response.

00:11:23.000 And that's what the Twitter admins have done by saying you can't even call people groomers.

00:11:27.000 Groomer is a neutral term.

00:11:28.000 Parents groom children to be great people.

00:11:30.000 Some people like grooming is just getting someone ready to become something.

00:11:34.000 And I think it's insane that people have forced it to become this negative connotation when we should really be focusing on the behavior and not what it's called.

00:11:43.000 They decided that an actual word to describe a behavior is a slur.

00:11:48.000 Imagine if someone, like, skateboarded.

00:11:52.000 And then you're like, that's a skateboarder right there.

00:11:54.000 And then the skateboarder's like, hey man, don't call me that.

00:11:57.000 And then Twitter was like, we're gonna ban you if you call them skateboarders.

00:11:59.000 It's like, they're literally doing it.

00:12:01.000 Have you gotten a temporary suspension before?

00:12:03.000 Nope, this is the first in the history of my Twitter career to ever... It's almost over.

00:12:08.000 Your Twitter career is almost over, dude.

00:12:11.000 Hey man, it's been a long run.

00:12:13.000 It's been 13 years.

00:12:15.000 Yeah, I'm on 13 as well. 0.80

00:12:17.000 2009 gay.

00:12:18.000 That's right. 0.99

00:12:18.000 Yeah, crazy, right? 0.99

00:12:20.000 But you know, there was a period where I took it seriously and I would use Twitter to report the news and post stories.

00:12:26.000 Now, I post a picture of a 96 foot tall rooster that I got in Times Square.

00:12:31.000 Big, beautiful rooster.

00:12:33.000 But with that said, I mean, of course, though, I mean, you've built a phenomenal platform outside of it, which 99.9% of people don't have.

00:12:42.000 So in your case, I mean, if you didn't use Twitter again, like at this stage, you're good to go?

00:12:49.000 No, but the truth is I learned this the hard way.

00:12:51.000 Twitter was always a big mistake.

00:12:53.000 How so?

00:12:55.000 When I got started doing news and commentary, I was like, wow, Twitter is this great place.

00:12:59.000 I should have been on YouTube from the beginning.

00:13:01.000 I should have started making YouTube videos.

00:13:03.000 Instead, I was posting on Twitter because I was convinced that people responding and tweeting was legitimate conversation.

00:13:10.000 And then it was only like two years later, I was like, I should have started a YouTube channel.

00:13:14.000 And I started a YouTube channel.

00:13:15.000 And then I started building that up.

00:13:17.000 And you can see, here's the thing with Twitter.

00:13:20.000 Nobody ever walks up to me on the street and goes, you're that guy from Twitter!

00:13:23.000 Happens to me every day.

00:13:24.000 Does it really?

00:13:25.000 You for real?

00:13:26.000 Yeah, not for me.

00:13:28.000 I've had one.

00:13:29.000 It was after Ferguson.

00:13:30.000 Some guy, like actually my neighbor, was like, hey man, I saw you on Twitter.

00:13:34.000 But since then, it's always YouTube, it's always podcasts, it's always someone else's show.

00:13:39.000 And when I worked for these big media companies, they would outright tell you this.

00:13:42.000 Twitter does not drive traffic, so we don't use it.

00:13:45.000 And I was like, what do you mean?

00:13:47.000 I was all like, no, of course it does.

00:13:49.000 Like everybody's using Twitter.

00:13:50.000 And they were like, bro.

00:13:51.000 And they'd show me the metrics.

00:13:52.000 And Twitter would drive like, a tweet would get like 0.01 clicks or something.

00:13:56.000 Just like out of the reach that it got.

00:13:59.000 Maybe my analytics are like super mega high.

00:14:02.000 The difference is, if you're using Twitter on Twitter, that makes sense.

00:14:07.000 If you're building a company and trying to use Twitter as like an external tool, it does nothing for you.

00:14:12.000 So being on Twitter, Okay.

00:14:14.000 This is not the case for me at all.

00:14:15.000 Wow.

00:14:16.000 That's surprising to me.

00:14:19.000 I'm way bigger on Twitter than I am on YouTube.

00:14:22.000 I spend more time on it as well.

00:14:23.000 I have a YouTube channel and Instagram and Facebook, but Twitter's the biggest and Twitter does the most for my actual business as well.

00:14:32.000 How does Twitter generate revenue for you more than YouTube can?

00:14:36.000 I've sold tens of thousands of things on Twitter.

00:14:40.000 Wow.

00:14:40.000 Merchandise, books.

00:14:42.000 Well, you mean promoting them on Twitter?

00:14:44.000 You're not directly selling them on Twitter.

00:14:47.000 You're promoting them with that platform.

00:14:49.000 Yeah, I mean, there's a link, but people are coming from Twitter.

00:14:52.000 Here's the question.

00:14:52.000 Twitter is the biggest sales platform for my book, for example.

00:14:55.000 Here's the question, though.

00:14:55.000 Yeah.

00:14:56.000 Would you be bigger?

00:14:57.000 On YouTube?

00:14:58.000 On any other platform?

00:15:00.000 Well, I use Instagram.

00:15:01.000 I do use YouTube.

00:15:02.000 I do use Facebook.

00:15:03.000 I use them all.

00:15:03.000 Do you have your own website?

00:15:07.000 Yeah.

00:15:07.000 Maybe I'm an anomaly.

00:15:09.000 TeamZoobie.com.

00:15:11.000 That's where I sell my book, my music, my merchandise.

00:15:14.000 But yeah, for me, Twitter is the biggest traffic driver.

00:15:16.000 Do you do videos on Twitter?

00:15:17.000 Yeah, sometimes.

00:15:18.000 Well, I will say this.

00:15:19.000 For me, there's only one thing I care about Twitter for, and it's my following list.

00:15:27.000 I follow left-wing, right-wing journalists and news organizations, and it's just a really easy way to get a news list.

00:15:33.000 That's the only thing I care about.

00:15:35.000 So that's why I'm usually posting nonsense.

00:15:37.000 The thing with social media is different things are good for different people.

00:15:40.000 Like I know people who Instagram is their, that's their generator.

00:15:44.000 Like they get their clients, their sales, their money, like they get their money from Instagram.

00:15:48.000 I know people where it's Facebook.

00:15:49.000 I know people it's Twitter.

00:15:50.000 I know people it's YouTube.

00:15:52.000 Um, so I think maybe it just, I think it just varies from individual to individual.

00:15:55.000 And I think it's also what you like.

00:15:57.000 Some people like doing YouTube.

00:15:59.000 And some people just like Twitter, some people like Instagram.

00:16:02.000 And I think if you like something, then you just go that much harder on it.

00:16:05.000 Let's talk about the problem with Twitter and where it's going with this story.

00:16:09.000 This is part of, whether it's intentional or not, it was explained to me by a former Trump administration official that what the big tech companies, Democrats, the Uniparty, neocon types are trying to do is Give anti-establishment people just enough voice so there's no ruckus, but reduce their voice just enough so it's politically neutered.

00:16:31.000 Yeah, it doesn't have an impact in the long term.

00:16:34.000 So if you've got a fierce rivalry between two factions and suspending one would result in an explosion of rage, you do is you suspend 1%.

00:16:42.000 Now it's a lopsided battle.

00:16:45.000 The left gets a major advantage against the right, and the right slowly loses out.

00:16:49.000 So when you do something like this, telling someone like me, I can't say a groomer, to someone literally showing kids, you know, adult materials...

00:16:56.000 That is a big move, a big line jump.

00:17:01.000 So now on Twitter, me getting hit, me talking about it, how many people do you think are gonna fall in line and go, uh-oh?

00:17:07.000 Yeah, it's got a chilling effect.

00:17:08.000 It's the same thing they did over the past two and a half years, they did it during the Trump era and so on.

00:17:12.000 It's creating that chill.

00:17:14.000 And one of the biggest issues that we have right now in Western society, and it's across the USA, it's in the UK, it's in Canada, it's everywhere, is just this climate of fear.

00:17:25.000 Like, the level of self-censorship that is now happening, I mean, we can sit here and we can, you know, talk openly and we're all open to sharing our opinions, but the sheer number of people, hundreds of millions of people who are just scared to say what they think, whether they... Go ahead.

00:17:43.000 Oh, no, no, no.

00:17:44.000 Oh, yeah.

00:17:44.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:17:45.000 No, just the sheer number of people who are just absolutely terrified to say, What they think on so many various issues from politics to social stuff to culture stuff to the entire pandemic situation.

00:17:59.000 It's concerning.

00:18:01.000 It's really concerning, especially because these are places where you're supposed to have free speech.

00:18:07.000 And if you cannot actually exercise your freedom of speech, then do you really have it?

00:18:12.000 Of course not.

00:18:13.000 And so people seem to think that... Let me put it this way.

00:18:17.000 We have the After Hours Uncensored show over at TimCast.com.

00:18:21.000 Sign up.

00:18:22.000 We're gonna have one of those up tonight at 11.

00:18:24.000 And often, we do say things that are like... We have conversations that Twitter doesn't... I'm sorry, that YouTube doesn't allow.

00:18:31.000 So we talked with Marjorie Taylor Greene about the 2020 election and what the Republicans plan to do, or I should say when they win in November, presumably.

00:18:40.000 And we talked about that.

00:18:42.000 I actually don't think that conversation would get banned on YouTube.

00:18:45.000 I'm just not willing to entertain that.

00:18:47.000 It's, you know, because YouTube is, their rules are vague, they're nebulous.

00:18:52.000 So the issue is, of course, we don't want to be censored.

00:18:55.000 We want to have the biggest conversations possible with the most people, and people need to hear these things.

00:18:58.000 And so it's a question of if we have 100 topics to talk about, are we forced to take one of

00:19:03.000 those topics to the website?

00:19:04.000 And that's the challenge.

00:19:05.000 It's not it's not an easy decision to make.

00:19:07.000 A lot of people are like, Tim, sacrifice the presence on YouTube.

00:19:10.000 Stop doing the show altogether to make a point.

00:19:12.000 And I'm like, then how are we winning anything?

00:19:14.000 So that's the challenge.

00:19:15.000 But here's what happens.

00:19:16.000 People think that we censor ourselves on the show to a great degree.

00:19:21.000 Not true at all.

00:19:22.000 There are some things we will use innuendo for or dance around if it is like an overt, you know, going to get us shut down.

00:19:30.000 We don't call people slurs.

00:19:32.000 We don't swear.

00:19:33.000 I don't really have any of that stuff to worry about.

00:19:36.000 What you need to understand is that We say the things we believe in, and the people who said the things they believe in got banned, right?

00:19:45.000 So when people refer to me as like a milquetoast fence-sitter, which is like the long-running joke, yes, understand that when they start banning me, that's where the line has moved to.

00:19:54.000 That's how far we're getting.

00:19:55.000 So it's not that I sit here and I'm like, I better not say these things, oh no, I don't want to anger YouTube.

00:20:00.000 It's that I'll outright say, YouTube is dumb and says they'll shut the show down if we say that, so go watch it on my website.

00:20:06.000 Let's build up a bigger website, challenge all of these systems, it's the best we can do.

00:20:10.000 I will say, the people who have opinions that are overtly banned, you're never going to hear from them again.

00:20:15.000 They were banned on YouTube already.

00:20:17.000 So, the way I described it before is that you've got this big island and it's cliffs all around that are slowly being knocked down and eroded.

00:20:26.000 And I've always been somewhat in the middle.

00:20:29.000 But then you see people on the right, the cliffs erode and they fall down as censorship starts wiping them out.

00:20:33.000 Those people held the line on their opinions.

00:20:38.000 I didn't have to worry about it because I'm like, I'm not going to say the things those guys are saying.

00:20:41.000 I don't agree with them.

00:20:42.000 And now the cliffs have eroded to the point where we're standing there saying, hey, children shouldn't get sex changes. 0.63

00:20:47.000 And they're like, oh, you better watch out.

00:20:49.000 We're going to ban you if you say that again.

00:20:50.000 And then it's going to come to a point where I'm like, well, I'm saying it. 0.99

00:20:53.000 Screw you. 0.98

00:20:54.000 It's really weird, isn't it? 0.99

00:20:54.000 So this is a good example on Twitter. 0.99

00:20:56.000 They said, you can't call people groomers.

00:20:58.000 Fine.

00:20:59.000 I'll call them pedophiles and I'll post all the stories I can find where Twitter protected

00:21:02.000 pedophiles because I got to wonder about the leadership at Twitter.

00:21:06.000 That's enforcing this stuff.

00:21:07.000 Vajayagade.

00:21:08.000 I mean, what's her predilection?

00:21:09.000 What is she, what is she thinking about?

00:21:11.000 What is she interested in that she would come to them and say, I don't want anyone to call 0.99

00:21:15.000 out pedophiles.

00:21:16.000 It's like, I wonder why you would do that.

00:21:18.000 It's really weird, isn't it?

00:21:19.000 It's really, it's really sinister because with stuff like stuff like this, it really

00:21:24.000 should not be.

00:21:26.000 It shouldn't be partisan.

00:21:27.000 It shouldn't be this.

00:21:28.000 It's not, it's not a political thing.

00:21:30.000 This shouldn't be some left, right issue, regardless of where you sit on the political spectrum during any remotely sane time or in any remotely sane country.

00:21:38.000 Everyone agrees.

00:21:39.000 There are certain lines you do not cross when it comes to children.

00:21:42.000 Not anymore.

00:21:42.000 Yeah, and the fact that this is even considered political or is becoming this guy I'm like dude, what is

00:21:49.000 What what is going on? This is it's it's very worrying It's cuz I don't think it's political so much as it is just

00:21:57.000 them letting go of the pretense that they're a platform for free expression like these platforms like Twitter and

00:22:03.000 YouTube used to really value appearing like they allow free expression, but now

00:22:11.000 They've kind of given up on that Yeah for sure

00:22:15.000 I'm talking outside of Facebook and Twitter though.

00:22:17.000 I'm talking as a general society in a culture, right?

00:22:21.000 so with these issues it's often framed as if this is you know, you've got these these right-wingers of these conservatives who have a problem with stuff like this and As long as you got your eyes on him.

00:22:34.000 He's interrupting us.

00:22:35.000 Very rude.

00:22:36.000 He never does this.

00:22:37.000 This is weird.

00:22:38.000 Why does he want to come in?

00:22:39.000 I thought he wasn't allowed in here.

00:22:40.000 I thought he wasn't allowed in here.

00:22:41.000 I mock us.

00:22:42.000 As long as you got your eyes on him.

00:22:44.000 Has he been grooming out there?

00:22:45.000 Get up there, buddy.

00:22:46.000 Is that what you were saying?

00:22:47.000 He's been grooming.

00:22:48.000 Yeah, I was just saying that it's nutty to me that this has even become considered some

00:22:53.000 kind of partisan split.

00:22:55.000 And I think that there's this reactionary thing that does happen, though, where if there are, you know, if people on the left side of the aisle are doing something, then there's a reaction from certain people on the right to oppose it, regardless of what it is.

00:23:09.000 And the opposite, I think now that People on— Conservatives are like, wait, hang on, why are you teaching my child about this nonsense?

00:23:17.000 Why have you got grown men in women's outfits reading to children and exposing themselves or whatever?

00:23:22.000 And there are— there's a faction of people on the left side of the aisle who are like, oh, well, conservatives have an issue with this, so I now need to support it.

00:23:28.000 I've got this— Let me— I just want to pull up this story, sorry.

00:23:31.000 This is from LGBTQ Nation.

00:23:34.000 Explaining the issue, they say Twitter enforced its ban on calling people groomers as anti-LGBTQ hate speech.

00:23:39.000 That's so wild.

00:23:41.000 So this is, this is like a cell phone.

00:23:44.000 I mean, this is them calling themselves groomers.

00:23:46.000 It's the weirdest thing.

00:23:47.000 Yeah.

00:23:48.000 The point I made when they announced this, first of all, the tweet I put up, I put up before they banned the word groomer.

00:23:55.000 So they're retroactively enforcing this now.

00:23:58.000 Have they officially put out a policy saying you cannot use this word?

00:24:02.000 I don't know.

00:24:02.000 I've not seen it.

00:24:03.000 I've seen the stories about it.

00:24:05.000 But here's the thing I tweeted about.

00:24:06.000 I said, there's a creepy guy staring at kids and licking his lips and saying, hey, you groomer, you get out of here.

00:24:13.000 And then a bunch of LGBTQ people walk over and go, hey, why are you making fun of us?

00:24:17.000 And I'm like, wait, what?

00:24:18.000 That's what's really disturbing me.

00:24:19.000 I wasn't talking about you guys.

00:24:20.000 People that groom children, like Hitler was a groomer. 0.72

00:24:23.000 He groomed children to be in the Hitler Youth. 0.60

00:24:24.000 You know, um, it doesn't have anything to do with sexuality on its face.

00:24:28.000 It's only when you can have people that are sexually grooming, but you can have people that are grooming politically, grooming ideologically, and that it's getting the Twitter people, Twitter conflating.

00:24:37.000 It is very disturbing to me.

00:24:39.000 Yeah.

00:24:39.000 Well, that's their own.

00:24:41.000 I don't know if that's a guilty conscience or if that's bigotry on their part, because they're the ones conflating, conflating LGBTQ struggle with that acronym, um, with grooming.

00:24:54.000 Yeah, but this is the point now.

00:24:55.000 You can't call out actual pedophiles.

00:24:57.000 They will suspend you. 0.80

00:24:59.000 So just call them pedophiles, I guess.

00:25:00.000 They said the word groomer is a slur. 0.59

00:25:01.000 It's like, I'm not trying to slur you.

00:25:03.000 I'm trying to call you what you are.

00:25:05.000 I'm not about insult. 1.00

00:25:07.000 I'm not going like, you're a dumb MF-er. 1.00

00:25:09.000 That's pointless. 0.99

00:25:10.000 Now I really want to know what you were quote tweeting.

00:25:13.000 I don't remember. 0.67

00:25:14.000 I vaguely remember, and I'm pretty sure it was a picture of, like, a drag queen showing sexual stuff to children. 0.66

00:25:21.000 I mean, people will find any way to defend that.

00:25:25.000 And I think if we're disagreeing on something that fundamental, like, you can't show this type of thing to children, we've got, like, spiritual problems to address.

00:25:33.000 A bunch of left-wing publications are overtly defending it.

00:25:37.000 So let me explain, just for those that haven't heard it before, what grooming is.

00:25:42.000 And I'll preface it by saying, for those that are fans who watch all of the episodes, not every person watches every segment and every podcast we do, and so I often get the same questions over and over again.

00:25:51.000 For example, a lot of people have said in the past, like, day or so, like, I'd sign up for your website if you didn't have PayPal.

00:25:56.000 And I'm like, bro, we haven't had PayPal for, like, two weeks now.

00:25:59.000 So I'll say this.

00:26:01.000 Grooming is when you take the most base form of, and we're talking about the sexual grooming of children, you take the most innocuous element of what you want to introduce to the kids so that no one can say it's overt. 0.92

00:26:15.000 So for instance, I knew a guy who got groomed into being a male prostitute.

00:26:20.000 And how they did it was, they asked him to do a modeling shoot for $200.

00:26:24.000 A legit true story.

00:26:26.000 They said, the gig is, we're doing a lifestyle photo shoot.

00:26:29.000 We want you to hang out and sit on this couch.

00:26:32.000 Relax, have a drink, we'll take a few photos.

00:26:35.000 Once we're done, 200 bucks cash.

00:26:37.000 That's innocent, isn't it?

00:26:39.000 He showed up wearing a hoodie and jeans and just took some photos.

00:26:43.000 That was grooming.

00:26:44.000 Why?

00:26:45.000 It's the long-term intent.

00:26:47.000 The next thing they did was they said, look, we already got tons of these lifestyle photos.

00:26:51.000 We need like, we need like active wear and swimwear and stuff.

00:26:54.000 Do you want to try wearing these shorts and a t-shirt?

00:26:56.000 Oh yeah, no problem.

00:26:59.000 Then they would say, sorry man, if you want the money, we don't need photos of this anymore.

00:27:02.000 We need, you know, underwear models. 1.00

00:27:05.000 Now he's an underwear model.

00:27:06.000 That was grooming.

00:27:08.000 So what happens is you take someone who's doing something adult or sexualized, introducing it to children, so a drag performance.

00:27:14.000 What is drag?

00:27:16.000 So I was actually talking about this, we were talking about this earlier, go-go dancing.

00:27:19.000 Imagine if someone was like, go-go dancer story hour.

00:27:23.000 You'd be like, what, for kids?

00:27:24.000 No way!

00:27:25.000 They get like a woman with just like a bra and panties sitting there reading to kids. 1.00

00:27:28.000 You'd be like, maybe not appropriate.

00:27:30.000 Hooters, probably not appropriate for kids either.

00:27:33.000 Drag actually involves them taking their clothes off for money. 0.92

00:27:36.000 So when you're talking about a sexualized performer, just reading a book to a kid, the reason that's grooming is the goal is to normalize the individual in drag to a child.

00:27:47.000 Then when people say, hey, wait a minute, hold on, drag is sexualized, they say, all we're doing is reading books, like exactly what they're doing now.

00:27:55.000 The difference is, this is mass scale grooming.

00:28:00.000 This is big tech and social media grooming and defending it, and I'll tell you what's really fascinating.

00:28:05.000 There was a period on YouTube, there was a big scandal.

00:28:07.000 Do you remember Elsagate?

00:28:08.000 Do you know about that?

00:28:09.000 Is this when people were like watching some video?

00:28:13.000 Maybe I'm mixing it up.

00:28:14.000 I remember there was something on YouTube where people were watching.

00:28:17.000 I don't know if it was like videos of kids doing stuff in like swimming pools.

00:28:21.000 There was something.

00:28:22.000 I can't explain it well.

00:28:23.000 There was something.

00:28:24.000 On YouTube you mean?

00:28:25.000 Yeah.

00:28:26.000 Yeah.

00:28:26.000 You know Alcagate?

00:28:28.000 Vaguely, yeah.

00:28:29.000 So Elsagate was when all of these channels started making videos of Elsa, the Joker, and Spider-Man running around, and the Incredible Hulk.

00:28:37.000 Okay.

00:28:37.000 And there was like no dialogue, and it was because little kids, their parents would turn the video on, and then it would just generate a ton of ad revenue for the person.

00:28:46.000 So all of a sudden people started making these videos because it made money, and it was getting increasingly creepy.

00:28:51.000 Eventually it ended with Elsagate got to the point where Elsa was pregnant, and the Joker was injecting her with things. 0.88

00:28:58.000 No joke.

00:28:59.000 This turned into videos where people literally were giving children shots because it was generating clicks for whatever reason the algorithm was promoting it.

00:29:07.000 And then, when people realized they could use an AI to auto-generate these videos, you ended up with videos of toddlers drinking urine.

00:29:16.000 And other overtly.

00:29:17.000 So this was a huge scandal where content for children was showing gore, violence, and overtly sexual activities.

00:29:25.000 YouTube panicked and had to start purging these channels and these videos to get rid of all of it.

00:29:29.000 So now the clever thing happened among the groomers.

00:29:32.000 They said, so long as you're doing these things overtly, they'll shut you down.

00:29:36.000 What you need is a shield.

00:29:38.000 So we started to see the LGBTP movement when pedophiles started saying LGBTP.

00:29:43.000 We then saw a TED talk from a woman who claimed that pedos were just expressing a natural orientation.

00:29:49.000 Then we saw USA Today write a similar article.

00:29:51.000 Then we saw, I think it was, maybe it was Salon and a bunch of magazines.

00:29:55.000 Yeah, it was Salon.

00:29:56.000 It was Salon.

00:29:57.000 New York Times, I think, did it.

00:29:58.000 Where they started saying, hey, hey, it's just an orientation.

00:30:01.000 Trying to normalize this stuff.

00:30:02.000 They're maps.

00:30:03.000 Minor attracted people.

00:30:04.000 Right, and then maps popped up on Twitter.

00:30:06.000 Twitter allows that overtly and people called him out.

00:30:08.000 Twitter doesn't care.

00:30:09.000 They still allow it.

00:30:10.000 Now, Twitter will actively ban you if you call out the pedophiles going after children.

00:30:14.000 Not only that, there's like a huge amount of not safe for work content on Twitter.

00:30:20.000 I understand that that's part of their TOS that they allow that, but they also have a lot of accounts that openly say in their bio that they are underage or their age.

00:30:32.000 As low as like 12, 13, 14 year olds having these not safe for work accounts on Twitter.

00:30:41.000 And they allow it.

00:30:43.000 There's another big issue that's happening too with the VR chat stuff, where 13 year olds will be in these VR chat rooms with grown adults and the adults, it's unsupervised.

00:30:54.000 I mean, this is getting out of control, man.

00:30:56.000 Yeah, this is crazy.

00:30:58.000 I mean, This leads to a wider conversation just about some of the, some of the, some of the challenges with, with technology just in general.

00:31:07.000 I think, I think people often forget just how new this all is that the smartphone and social media combo we've only had for 15 years.

00:31:17.000 We've had the internet for longer than that, but with all the greatness and wonderful opportunities it brings for decent people and entrepreneurs and creatives and so on.

00:31:27.000 It also opens up this Pandora's box of just completely new, like what you described with that Elsagate thing.

00:31:35.000 Yeah.

00:31:35.000 I mean, that just, yeah, it's so bizarre and weird.

00:31:39.000 It's not something you think of when you're starting YouTube, you're not there thinking like, Oh, okay.

00:31:44.000 This is something we need to be careful of.

00:31:45.000 It wasn't just videos of people either.

00:31:47.000 There were, like, animated cartoons that were made by A.I.s that just generated whatever got the most clicks and then that ended up, of course, being, like, the most effed up.

00:31:58.000 Yeah, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, sexual stuff, violent stuff.

00:32:03.000 Yeah, like I'm pretty into technology.

00:32:05.000 And I did not know that such an AI even exists, that you can create automated animated videos.

00:32:13.000 Yeah, using like characters from Disney and stuff.

00:32:16.000 So they know that kids are going to click on it.

00:32:18.000 Yeah, it's scary.

00:32:19.000 And then you bring in VR.

00:32:21.000 It wasn't about clicking on it.

00:32:22.000 What happens is Or autoplay.

00:32:24.000 Yeah.

00:32:25.000 So parents would give their toddlers or babies a tablet and then turn on nursery rhymes.

00:32:31.000 And then the algorithm would just bring those kids down a rabbit hole.

00:32:34.000 Yo, those kids are going to grow up and be twisted. 1.00

00:32:37.000 So the parents just like come into the room and they just see their child watching some wild stuff.

00:32:42.000 All the comments were gibberish because the babies were just hitting the thing randomly?

00:32:46.000 A lot of people thought that some of those gibberish comments were speaking in some kind of code that was like coordinating human trafficking.

00:32:55.000 I don't know about that.

00:32:57.000 Maybe.

00:32:57.000 Honestly, these things, like, that's the one line for me where, I mean, I think any adult should be like this, but when it comes to people just messing with kids in general, that's just where, like... Dude, it's been said numerous times.

00:33:13.000 Like, why is that partisan?

00:33:15.000 You know, because... Think about that, like... It shouldn't be.

00:33:17.000 It should be instinctual.

00:33:19.000 That's when, like, I feel... But it's becoming partisan.

00:33:20.000 Have you noticed that many of these people, these leftists, use cartoon child avatars?

00:33:27.000 Yes.

00:33:27.000 Yeah.

00:33:27.000 Yeah, I had a bunch of them after me today, in fact.

00:33:31.000 They don't make, like, they don't view themselves as adults.

00:33:35.000 I mean, think about the word adulting, to imply that you're doing something not normal.

00:33:40.000 Yo, the word adulting implies, like, the actual word means doing normal things humans do.

00:33:45.000 Yeah.

00:33:45.000 I'm adulting.

00:33:46.000 What is what children are send it out a lessons?

00:33:49.000 Yeah, right And so now you've got people go on Twitter and they post

00:33:52.000 these pictures of themselves these fictionalized versions it was a really funny meme a while ago from a

00:33:58.000 particular feminist podcast and they made this graphic of themselves and they were all like 0.65

00:34:04.000 dainty young looking women and then Someone made a realistic version of what they actually 1.00

00:34:09.000 looked like like double chin and obese and things like that people use the internet to project what they wish they were

00:34:16.000 the crazy thing is I And you probably know this better than anybody, Zuby.

00:34:21.000 People could just be what they want to be through hard work, right?

00:34:24.000 If you want to be thin and small, you just do it.

00:34:26.000 Not everybody can be a giraffe, though, and some people want to be a giraffe, and so I don't have to tell you, man.

00:34:31.000 Just pray the Matrix and Neuralink can take you into that reality where you can be a giraffe, but for the time being... Yeah.

00:34:36.000 Do you think that maybe some people have this kind of Michael Jackson syndrome where, like, in their childhood, Perhaps they didn't get to play outside and have toys and do all the things that they kind of wanted to and now as an adult they're trying to play this now.

00:34:55.000 I don't know, it's just an idea.

00:34:57.000 Adderall is messing kids' childhoods up.

00:34:59.000 They're not being able to enjoy them properly.

00:35:01.000 I think that's definitely screwing kids up and all the drugs, but I think what's happening is the internet and media has created these parallel realities that children live in.

00:35:11.000 So I often think about, you know, how is it that somebody wants to dress up like a cartoon rabbit?

00:35:15.000 Like furries.

00:35:15.000 Furries is freaking weird, man.

00:35:17.000 Hey, look, do what you want to do.

00:35:19.000 I got no beef.

00:35:20.000 No, it's not beef, but it's freaking weird.

00:35:22.000 We can say stuff is weird.

00:35:23.000 I'm not saying it should be illegal.

00:35:24.000 It's just weird.

00:35:25.000 I'm just wondering where it comes from.

00:35:27.000 How is it that someone identifies as a cartoon animal?

00:35:30.000 So the first thing that happened was when I first heard about furries, someone told me it's people who just dress up like animals.

00:35:36.000 And I was like, oh, I guess people want to be animals.

00:35:38.000 And then I actually saw what they were doing and I'm like, no, those are Looney Tunes.

00:35:42.000 They're dressing up like Bugs Bunny with big eyes and cartoon faces.

00:35:46.000 So what I think happened was people grew up watching anthropomorphized animals.

00:35:51.000 And a child's brain is trying to connect itself to reality.

00:35:55.000 So, in early human development, human tribes, the baby watches the adults do adult stuff, and then says, this is what I should be doing, and then wires itself to identify alongside what their adults are.

00:36:07.000 The man is chopping wood, the woman is, you know, raising the kids and gathering, the men come back with the bears and the boars and the meat.

00:36:15.000 Then you do the modern era, where kids are now put in front of the TV where they watch nothing but Looney Tunes.

00:36:21.000 Their brain says, this is adult life.

00:36:23.000 These are what human adults do.

00:36:24.000 And so their brain creates an identity around anthropomorphized cartoon animals.

00:36:28.000 Then when they're older, they want to be that.

00:36:31.000 I think this is why we're seeing the explosion of identity crisis from, you guys know what Otherkin is? 0.99

00:36:36.000 Yes, I do.

00:36:37.000 Unfortunately.

00:36:38.000 People think they're like, I'm an owl wolf.

00:36:40.000 Yeah.

00:36:41.000 Why?

00:36:41.000 No, no, for real, like, legitimate question, like, where does that identity crisis come from?

00:36:46.000 But isn't it, but we've had anthropomorphized, that's one word I always struggle to get out.

00:36:50.000 Anthropomorphism.

00:36:51.000 Anthropomorphism.

00:36:52.000 Yeah, we've had that for, that's existed for a long time though.

00:36:57.000 Native American culture, people would become wolves and things like that. 0.98

00:37:00.000 Not the way we're doing it now.

00:37:01.000 And also, didn't we all also grow up with this and none of us are?

00:37:06.000 So for one, no, we didn't always have this.

00:37:09.000 We had the concept of humanized or anthropomorphized animals in like written literature told to you in a story from a person's mouth.

00:37:18.000 But we had the cartoons.

00:37:18.000 I mean, Looney Tunes and all the Disney stuff.

00:37:20.000 So perhaps the issue is one, some people are more susceptible and two, maybe some of these people were placed in front of these shows for extended periods of time and their parents were less attentive.

00:37:31.000 On like a mood stabilizer.

00:37:33.000 A lot of it's pharmaceutical.

00:37:34.000 And then kids are seeing porn.

00:37:35.000 Average age is 11 that kids are being exposed to porn.

00:37:39.000 That's another tech thing, isn't it?

00:37:40.000 Groomers.

00:37:41.000 I mean, that's another tech.

00:37:43.000 That's another technology problem, man.

00:37:44.000 I mean, it's all a tech problem.

00:37:46.000 Yeah.

00:37:47.000 I mean, well, hold on 20 years ago.

00:37:49.000 I mean, if you wanted to, if you wanted to access porn as a horny little 12 year old or 13 year old, You could do it, but the barrier was a lot higher.

00:37:58.000 You'd have to get an older person to go in and buy a magazine off the top shelf or someone's got a little DVD or something like that.

00:38:06.000 Not just you tap a site on a phone or a tablet or a computer and just boom, no verification, nothing.

00:38:12.000 It's just there.

00:38:13.000 Bill Maher asked the question.

00:38:15.000 He said either we're creating them or we're shaming them.

00:38:20.000 Why is it that California has so many trans kids, Ohio doesn't?

00:38:23.000 There's clearly that something affects the identity of a young person as they're growing up.

00:38:28.000 It's the parents.

00:38:30.000 I think it's everything.

00:38:31.000 It's parents and society.

00:38:34.000 Social media is a factor.

00:38:35.000 Some of these teachers, obviously, are doing this.

00:38:37.000 But a lot of parents are... To me, it's like having a vegan cat.

00:38:42.000 If you've got a vegan cat, it's not the cat making the decisions.

00:38:45.000 The cat will die.

00:38:46.000 Cats can't be vegan.

00:38:47.000 It's not the cat making the decisions.

00:38:49.000 It's like, no, you're pushing your ideology onto your cat. 0.95

00:38:53.000 If you have a trans three-year-old, and I feel gross even saying that, Dude, this stuff is evil, man. 1.00

00:39:00.000 And there's something really satanic going on in the West right now, man. 0.74

00:39:03.000 kids can do transit to this stuff is evil man and there's something really satanic going on in the

00:39:08.000 west right now man like i can't really put it any light why do you say satanic i say satanic

00:39:15.000 because i genuinely think there are evil forces out there and i'm talking about actual spiritual

00:39:21.000 realm um and And to someone who is a absolute atheist and non-believer or thinks nothing is supernatural, that might sound weird to them.

00:39:31.000 But I think that we've legit got like a demonic issue.

00:39:36.000 And it makes sense that they would go for children first.

00:39:39.000 Yeah, I think there's an entire inversion agenda that's been running very aggressively for the past several years.

00:39:46.000 I think there's a practical reason for a lot of this.

00:39:49.000 We've talked about Thucydides' trap on the show quite a bit.

00:39:51.000 Are you familiar with the concept?

00:39:52.000 I'm not.

00:39:52.000 No, explain it.

00:39:53.000 Whenever a rising economic power is on the verge of supplanting the dominant power, war breaks out.

00:40:00.000 I say whenever, but it's a tendency toward.

00:40:02.000 So historians often say the last 16 examples of an economic power supplanting the greater, 12 instances led to war.

00:40:14.000 So the idea is, why is it that, I don't know, Joe Biden is doing these deals and flying to China and working these deals with China.

00:40:20.000 China is expected to overtake the United States very soon.

00:40:23.000 It was delayed because of COVID.

00:40:25.000 Interesting.

00:40:26.000 Interesting about that.

00:40:27.000 It was delayed because of COVID.

00:40:30.000 You mean the overtake?

00:40:31.000 The overtake.

00:40:31.000 China... I'm sorry, actually, it might have been sped up by it.

00:40:33.000 Oh, I thought it would have been sped up, because China continued to grow in the U.S.

00:40:36.000 Right, I think it was sped up by it.

00:40:38.000 But think about what this means.

00:40:40.000 The U.S.

00:40:41.000 is eroding from within.

00:40:43.000 You've got the January 6th Committee, for instance, actively trying.

00:40:48.000 So Eric Swalwell was asked about this.

00:40:50.000 He was asked about, you know, isn't what he's doing causing more division?

00:40:55.000 And he said something that was like just inane, like, well, we have to do it or something like that.

00:41:00.000 So yeah, when they lie and escalate, Jussie Smollett, Russiagate, Ukrainegate, all of that stuff, just lie, lie, lie, lie, lie.

00:41:07.000 They are in flaming tensions.

00:41:09.000 When they go after kids and divert them, or should I say, subvert their development, and then cause identity crises, give them drugs, destroying the next generation, is going to cripple the United States.

00:41:20.000 And I have to wonder, Not saying it's intentional, but it is fortuitous for those who fear Thucydides' trap, because the U.S.

00:41:29.000 is falling as fast as China's rising.

00:41:32.000 China may actually take over the world, the global economy, without the U.S. 0.95

00:41:36.000 ever having an opportunity to engage in war.

00:41:39.000 So if you think about the Council on Foreign Relations, I think it was, they have on their website the liberal world order and why it was created.

00:41:46.000 Anybody who's arguing for the creation of a new world order in the wake of the liberal world order, and I don't mean the new world order conspiracy, I mean the literal term, a world order and a new version of it, it would be beneficial to avoid a third world war with China. 0.78

00:42:01.000 How would you do that?

00:42:03.000 So where is this coming from?

00:42:04.000 Is this internal?

00:42:04.000 and the upcoming generation to make sure that they can't ever actually engage in conflict.

00:42:09.000 There's a story I saw recently where there was like a destroyer that had like three captains

00:42:13.000 rotate in and out so quickly because they were being fired and demoted. The U.S. military can't

00:42:18.000 recruit at all anymore. So where is this coming from? No idea. But I will say... Is this internal?

00:42:24.000 Is this external manipulation? Both maybe. That's the thing I find so weird.

00:42:30.000 It's like this social and cultural domestic Harry Curie, right?

00:42:39.000 It's so odd to me.

00:42:40.000 I mean, the UK is doing the same things.

00:42:41.000 Many Western countries are.

00:42:42.000 I think the US is kind of sadly leading the charge in this and exporting a lot of bad ideas.

00:42:48.000 There's really a lot of people have noticed that in the past, I want to say seven to eight years in particular, a lot of this is the inversion has really, really accelerated.

00:43:00.000 And so much of the stuff that we talk about and all of the, so many of these issues are things that it would literally as recently as a decade ago, it would have seemed completely absurd for them to even be debates or conversations.

00:43:15.000 And there's something real, really, really weird going on.

00:43:18.000 I do want to point out just a quick shout out to Joe Spinella on the super chat who mentioned, surely you haven't seen the tanks protecting Chinese banks because Chinese economy is like imploding.

00:43:29.000 True point, fair point, fair point.

00:43:31.000 I'm not saying that China is coming out unscathed. 0.92

00:43:35.000 It may be a global economic collapse.

00:43:37.000 The whole system is just imploding for whatever reason.

00:43:40.000 You start with the Trans-Pacific Partnership in 2010.

00:43:42.000 That was the first warning sign for me Barack Obama signed on and it gave.

00:43:45.000 There's this thing called the Investor State Dispute Settlement Clause in the Trans-Pacific Partnership deal that would have given Malaysian oil corporations the power to sue the United States government and the taxpayers would have to pay the bill if they thought that Americans were discriminating against their oil companies and didn't want to buy their oil.

00:44:04.000 then they could sue us. And it was giving corporations insane power over American citizens.

00:44:09.000 And Obama was on it. He like he didn't know or he didn't care.

00:44:12.000 And Trump shut it down.

00:44:13.000 Trump shut it down like the third day was an office or the second day was an office.

00:44:16.000 But that they were trying to do that is very overtly transferring power from

00:44:22.000 the citizen American democracy, republicanism to corporatism.

00:44:25.000 Yeah, dude, look at the last two and a half years. Like seriously.

00:44:29.000 I mean, how of all these countries in a very coordinated fashion?

00:44:36.000 I mean, it's one thing if one country goes nuts, but it's literally been UK, Canada, every country in Western Europe pretty much, except Sweden, USA, New Zealand.

00:44:47.000 Hold on.

00:44:47.000 What was it, World War I?

00:44:49.000 You had the three countries, they were cousins with each other?

00:44:52.000 It was like France, who was it, Germany, and who else or something like that?

00:44:55.000 Germany, Austria, I don't know.

00:44:56.000 I don't remember.

00:44:58.000 Um, but it was like these three leaders are going to war with each other.

00:45:00.000 We're cousins.

00:45:01.000 It's like, they're all related to each other.

00:45:03.000 That's just that I'm not surprised by any of that powerful.

00:45:07.000 I think we were witnessing a controlled demolition, man.

00:45:10.000 You think they're intentionally destroying the economy and.

00:45:14.000 Dude, everything that people are freaking out with right now with the economy, supply chains, inflation... I'm not saying you're wrong.

00:45:20.000 It was all completely predictable and predicted by myself and other so-called conspiracy theorists, like, when all this stuff started.

00:45:28.000 It was very predictable and very obvious.

00:45:30.000 I got evidence for you.

00:45:34.000 We'll call it circumstantial evidence and we'll call it logic.

00:45:36.000 So Ukraine-Russia war, right?

00:45:39.000 Invasion of Ukraine.

00:45:40.000 Fertilizer from Russia not getting exported.

00:45:43.000 U.S.

00:45:43.000 is in trouble.

00:45:44.000 Ukraine and Russia neither are exporting enough wheat.

00:45:47.000 They can't produce any.

00:45:47.000 There's a war going on.

00:45:48.000 They can't produce as much.

00:45:50.000 Global famine.

00:45:51.000 You've heard him talk about it.

00:45:52.000 Yes.

00:45:53.000 Yeah, okay.

00:45:53.000 Then why in Europe are they telling farmers in Ireland and the Netherlands to stop farming?

00:45:57.000 And the UK.

00:45:58.000 And the UK.

00:45:59.000 Why are they telling these farmers, these countries, stop farming right now?

00:46:02.000 Controlled demolition.

00:46:03.000 But hold on.

00:46:04.000 The same people who are telling us that there is going to be a global famine are also telling their farmers to stop farming.

00:46:12.000 That's very strange, isn't it?

00:46:13.000 I mean, they're saying, famine's coming, you better stop farming or else.

00:46:16.000 It's like, okay, do you want people to, like, run out of food?

00:46:20.000 Yeah, it's weird.

00:46:21.000 I mean, the thing is, and it's impossible to not be a quote-unquote conspiracy theorist these days after the past several years if you are just interested in thinking, but they've created this, right?

00:46:36.000 If people Who are in power or people in corporate media and so on, so-called public health officials and the experts which we keep hearing about, if they refuse to be honest and they just continue to lie and to gaslight and to shift goalposts for years and years and years on end, like every single day, they're just lying to people, then naturally you are going to have people trying to work out, wait, what is going on?

00:47:00.000 This narrative is not making sense.

00:47:01.000 This is not logical, this is not rational, this is not based in science, it's not based in economics, nothing.

00:47:07.000 What is going on?

00:47:08.000 It makes people wonder.

00:47:09.000 Can we stop it?

00:47:11.000 I think people always ultimately have the power.

00:47:13.000 We can resist the starvation by growing local food.

00:47:17.000 Well, that's what I'm getting to.

00:47:18.000 My question is, if we are in a controlled demolition, do you think it's possible that people reverse course and stop this?

00:47:24.000 Yes, it's always possible.

00:47:25.000 I don't think this is the first time being here in history.

00:47:27.000 By voting for Trump is what you're saying.

00:47:30.000 Mega.

00:47:32.000 Yeah, I mean, look, I don't think that this is the first or even close to the worst thing that humanity has faced on any level.

00:47:41.000 I think it's important to always maintain a sense of gratitude and perspective, both historically and geographically.

00:47:48.000 And I think there's a lot of real stuff to be very, very concerned about.

00:47:51.000 But in terms of my optimism, I mean, you look at history and, man, there's countless examples of very, very dark times where I'm sure people in certain countries or across just thought, you know what?

00:48:02.000 This is a wrap.

00:48:03.000 This is the end. 0.88

00:48:04.000 Like, this is a freaking nightmare.

00:48:07.000 And people have always come out on the end of it. 0.76

00:48:11.000 Thus far, right?

00:48:12.000 Our species is still going.

00:48:13.000 There's more of us than ever before.

00:48:15.000 So I think one thing that people often forget, though, is that history is not finished.

00:48:20.000 It never is.

00:48:21.000 No, we're living through the history of the future, right?

00:48:24.000 I'm sure if you go back to 1910s and you talk to people in Europe or in America or whatever, I'm pretty sure they thought that they were very advanced and they were past all the war and the chaos and the famine and the genocides.

00:48:35.000 You know, we're cool, we're advanced, we're smart, we're moral, we're decent people.

00:48:39.000 And then boom, World War I, boom, World War II, right?

00:48:43.000 That would not have been remotely predictable.

00:48:46.000 Well, what's happening now?

00:48:49.000 They say that there's overpopulation, climate change from too much pollution.

00:48:53.000 I say, okay.

00:48:54.000 They say we gotta have late-term abortions. 1.00

00:48:57.000 Then they say we also gotta give drugs to children that will sterilize them.

00:49:01.000 And I'm like, the end result of that is just the left.

00:49:04.000 Conservatives aren't engaging in that for the most part.

00:49:07.000 They'll be brought down by it to a certain degree, but not completely.

00:49:10.000 And so I wonder about this.

00:49:11.000 The end result The strong survive.

00:49:15.000 If there's an artificial flood or a natural flood, whatever you want to call it, some emergency, be it an economic crisis, an environmental crisis, or a cultural crisis, in the end, the strong survive.

00:49:25.000 Well, it's the adaptable that survive.

00:49:27.000 The strong may starve.

00:49:29.000 It's also the people who show up for it.

00:49:31.000 The future will go to those who show up for it.

00:49:33.000 So if I'm sitting here saying to everybody who's watching this show, and you are as well, like, hey, it feels like there's a collapse happening and it may be on purpose.

00:49:42.000 The best case, the best evidence, in my opinion, is that they're claiming a global famine is coming while telling farmers to stop farming.

00:49:47.000 That's indicative of they're intentionally trying to starve people.

00:49:51.000 So my point is, if you hear that, You had two years advance notice watching my show, if you haven't for that long, to, I don't know, move out of the cities, get a small piece of land where you can grow enough food for your family, or to buy emergency food and start preparing for what may be coming.

00:50:09.000 But I'll stress it again.

00:50:11.000 When the powers that be scream in your face for two years, a food shortage is coming, then you actively see them shooting!

00:50:18.000 A cop shot a live bullet at farmers!

00:50:22.000 Because they want them to stop farming.

00:50:24.000 It's like, okay, that in the Netherlands, like they're willing to kill these farmers to shut down their protest.

00:50:30.000 Yo, they're telling you they are not going to let you have food.

00:50:33.000 I think maybe you should plan for that.

00:50:34.000 It may be like a misdirected intention.

00:50:36.000 Like I'm keeping about Mao's Great Leap Forward in the communist Chinese revolution of what is the 1960s.

00:50:42.000 And he moved all these farmers off the farms and then gave, like, all these people from the cities, he moved them out to the farms.

00:50:47.000 Like, now you're in the farm.

00:50:49.000 But they didn't know how to farm, so a bunch of people starved.

00:50:51.000 Maybe it was intentional.

00:50:52.000 I don't know.

00:50:52.000 Stalin did the same.

00:50:53.000 Yeah, you starve the resistance and then you have less resistance.

00:50:56.000 So...

00:50:57.000 If they think there's an overpopulation issue and they want a slower growth of population, what would be a good way to do that?

00:51:05.000 Not a slower growth.

00:51:06.000 They want a depletion of it.

00:51:08.000 And the people who are imposing this so-called controlled demolition are certainly going to survive the Famine, civil unrest, whatever happens, and then the so-called, like, strong of, you know, maybe people watching this show who do what the things that you just listed are also going to survive it, then what happens?

00:51:29.000 MAGA people are the future? 1.00

00:51:31.000 Is that it?

00:51:31.000 I don't, I don't think anyone's overtly said they want less people.

00:51:34.000 People keep saying they want to slow the growth.

00:51:36.000 Of course I wouldn't overtly say that.

00:51:37.000 That's not true.

00:51:37.000 Bill Gates wrote an article about it saying that There is way too many poor people being born in Africa, and that's what we gotta stop.

00:51:43.000 There's a lot of antinatalism, and it's not new.

00:51:47.000 Antinatalism has been running for decades.

00:51:49.000 To your point about the strong surviving, when there's no food, it's the people in cities who suffer.

00:51:58.000 The people who live out in the countryside, like, yo, you drive up the mountain, everyone has chickens.

00:52:03.000 Like, to them it's- and people who are listening to this who live in the country know exactly what this is better than I do because they've been doing it their whole lives.

00:52:09.000 It's like, you wake up in the morning and get eggs from the chicken.

00:52:11.000 It's no big deal.

00:52:12.000 Growing up in the city, you go to the supermarket to get your bleached eggs.

00:52:15.000 Now, if there's a food shortage, the people who have their own chickens don't gotta worry about it.

00:52:19.000 Y'all, you're gonna be eating cockroaches and bugs and crickets?

00:52:22.000 I got like 30-40 chickens out there.

00:52:25.000 Oh, they're pushing the insects hard.

00:52:27.000 The chickens are going to eat the crickets, and I'm going to eat the chickens.

00:52:31.000 That's the way to go.

00:52:32.000 But chickens smell, and they pollute the environment, so not everyone can have them, unfortunately.

00:52:37.000 No, no, chickens, when they poop, we don't do it properly, because we are still living in this luxury.

00:52:44.000 What you do is, Thomas Massey, man, that guy's a genius.

00:52:48.000 He has something called the Clux Capacitor.

00:52:50.000 It's a solar capacitor that charges up and then releases a charge pulling a chicken coop about an inch.

00:52:55.000 So all day, the chicken's coop moves and the chickens poop in the grass.

00:52:59.000 And he said, the trail of grass behind the chicken coop is lush and fertile because the chickens are actively eating the bugs in the grass and then fertilizing the soil.

00:53:09.000 So it's a perfect cycle.

00:53:11.000 Brilliant.

00:53:12.000 What'd you do in the chicken's poop? 0.97

00:53:13.000 We've got these big mounds because we did construction, and it's crazy how big and tall the wild shrubbery and grass have grown on it because it was just a huge pile of chicken crap. 0.93

00:53:23.000 It is impressive.

00:53:25.000 I looked up at it and saw it for the first time.

00:53:26.000 What happened?

00:53:27.000 That was wild. 0.99

00:53:29.000 Yeah, well, it was two big mounds of chicken crap.

00:53:31.000 And it's like, I think what happens is the nitrogen escaped from it, and then it's fertile, and then the plants just go nuts. 0.85

00:53:37.000 I'm with you, Zuby.

00:53:38.000 I think all you guys actually kind of been touching on this, that if they want a slower population growth or less people, one of the two, and they want less carbon in the atmosphere, that they want, we're running out of food, but they want the farmers to stop farming.

00:53:51.000 It feels like they want to starve a segment of the population to propel, and these people that want it must be insulated from that in some way.

00:53:59.000 I think it's because they know that not the entire globe can enjoy the first world luxuries that a lot of us enjoy and now their version of preparing for that prospect as the population grows is to, by any means necessary, deplete the population and then hoard the resources for themselves.

00:54:24.000 And no one, I don't think anyone knew Stalin was trying to kill his population until after it happened, or Mao until after it happened.

00:54:30.000 Like, you don't know when it's coming, otherwise you'd stop it.

00:54:33.000 You prevent it.

00:54:34.000 Exactly.

00:54:34.000 This is what people don't understand.

00:54:35.000 But people also are really bad at stopping things.

00:54:39.000 They're good at running and hiding.

00:54:40.000 The river flows in one direction.

00:54:41.000 People are really, again, um, I hate to keep referring back to the past two and a half years we've just lived through, but I can't think of a more blatant and in your face example of people not stopping things when there's a clear and simple opportunity.

00:54:54.000 Because tribalism, I think people have a natural tendency towards resistance.

00:54:57.000 We have sports because they want to fight against something.

00:55:00.000 I think it's also just fear.

00:55:02.000 With the last two years, there's such an easy way to resist.

00:55:08.000 And people didn't do it.

00:55:10.000 They still aren't doing it.

00:55:11.000 Ian makes a good point, though.

00:55:13.000 When I was younger, I used to complain that people cared about sports more than politics.

00:55:18.000 And I didn't understand why we have these stories about Bush and the invasion of Iraq, and then you get Obama, and I'm like, I wish people cared more about this than, say, the Packers or whatever.

00:55:28.000 And now I'm understanding exactly why it was good that we had sports.

00:55:32.000 People don't care or want to understand.

00:55:35.000 They want tribal conflict.

00:55:37.000 And so while they're saying, I choose, because no one forces you to do this, they say, I'd rather watch the baseball game and argue with my friends about who's better at baseball.

00:55:49.000 And then I say, well, I care a whole lot about the conflict, so I'm going to pay attention to that.

00:55:54.000 It actually works out really well that the people who aren't smart enough or don't want to engage in worldly affairs choose not to, so they're not voting for evil people or being susceptible to demagogues.

00:56:03.000 But once politics became pop culture, now you have people being sucked into the demagoguery of the Democrats or, you know, they argue Donald Trump.

00:56:14.000 But it's the Democrats that are funding Trump-supported candidates while claiming they're the apocalypse.

00:56:18.000 So this is what the Democrats have done.

00:56:21.000 I saw this montage.

00:56:22.000 It was horrifying.

00:56:24.000 Where all of the cable news outlets are talking about the January 6 hearings as a season of shows with a season finale.

00:56:31.000 They have made it entertainment to escalate political conflict.

00:56:35.000 To me, like you were saying, Zuby, it sounds like they're doing it on purpose to cause political conflict.

00:56:41.000 I wrote for Newsweek when Raskin included me in his evidence that this is the goal.

00:56:46.000 To drive a wedge, to create escalation.

00:56:48.000 Let's jump to this next story so we can call out Joe Biden a little bit.

00:56:51.000 We got this from The Hill.

00:56:52.000 Oh boy.

00:56:53.000 Biden says, quote, God willing, I don't think we're going to see a recession.

00:56:57.000 Really?

00:56:58.000 God willing, I don't think.

00:57:00.000 I don't think.

00:57:01.000 We'll just put dots after that.

00:57:04.000 So the Biden administration, it was Yellen, said, well, they're all coming out and saying this, a recession is normally two consecutive periods with negative growth.

00:57:11.000 Talking However, that's not really what a recession is.

00:57:15.000 So we're not really in a recession, even if that is the case.

00:57:18.000 So Thursday, we're going to find out if it's an official recession, which we all know it is.

00:57:23.000 And that's why they preempted this by saying, uh, despite the official definition of a recession, that's not a recession.

00:57:28.000 And moving forward, we won't see one.

00:57:31.000 This is trying to reduce panic.

00:57:33.000 This is just like at the beginning of COVID when they were telling us not to buy masks.

00:57:39.000 It's all about lying because they don't believe in the goodwill of people.

00:57:43.000 I tell people listening this.

00:57:45.000 We can do what we can do.

00:57:47.000 We can speak up.

00:57:48.000 We can try and provide information to people.

00:57:51.000 We always got to be calm, reasonable, and rational.

00:57:54.000 And then when those people don't want to listen, there's only so much you can do.

00:57:56.000 You can bring a horse to Harvard, but you can't make him learn.

00:58:00.000 However, you can go to a store and buy beans that will last you for a few years.

00:58:04.000 You can stock up on emergency water, emergency food.

00:58:07.000 You can get out of cities.

00:58:09.000 Now some people tell me, Yo, I can't afford to leave the city.

00:58:13.000 Totally get it.

00:58:14.000 Totally understand.

00:58:14.000 It's not easy.

00:58:15.000 I'm sorry.

00:58:16.000 I don't have answers for everybody.

00:58:17.000 I will tell you that there may come a time where things get so bad in cities, and I say may come a time, I don't know, where you're like, it is preferable to just start walking.

00:58:26.000 To leave everything behind, strap on my shoes and walk out of that city.

00:58:29.000 If say like the water system fails or something like that.

00:58:31.000 I'm not saying it will.

00:58:32.000 I'm saying for the time being, if you can't afford to leave the city, it basically means that the way you live in the city is a better standard for you than just being homeless and wandering through the woods.

00:58:43.000 That I understand.

00:58:45.000 Times may come though, so do what you can is my point.

00:58:47.000 Guys, make sure you have passports.

00:58:48.000 I know a lot of Americans don't have passports.

00:58:50.000 If you don't have a passport, please get one.

00:58:52.000 But do you know why they don't?

00:58:54.000 Because they never leave.

00:58:55.000 But do you know why they don't leave?

00:58:56.000 It's a big country.

00:58:57.000 It's a big country.

00:58:59.000 The United States is about as big as Europe is.

00:59:01.000 And it's quite xenophobic.

00:59:02.000 People are told, at least I was growing up, that the outside world is very dangerous.

00:59:05.000 The outside world.

00:59:06.000 Outside of the United States, you might get attacked on the street.

00:59:08.000 And you know, there's some truth to it.

00:59:10.000 You go to South America, the cops are bribed.

00:59:12.000 You know, you got to be careful where you walk.

00:59:13.000 The USA is more dangerous than a lot of countries.

00:59:16.000 New York City's?

00:59:17.000 It's a jungle.

00:59:18.000 It's a mechanical jungle.

00:59:19.000 It's always funny because you guys know I grew up in the Middle East, I grew up in Saudi Arabia, and it's very funny how people have this idea of that being some super dangerous place.

00:59:27.000 I'm like, bro, it's safer than literally everywhere in the USA.

00:59:29.000 Let me tell you the problem with these big cities.

00:59:33.000 Let's say you have a chicken, and that chicken takes a dump right in the middle of your yard.

00:59:38.000 You don't think twice.

00:59:39.000 You don't care.

00:59:40.000 The rain comes a day later, that poop is long gone. 0.98

00:59:43.000 What happens if 20 tons of chicken crap plopped right in the middle of your yard?

00:59:47.000 It's a lot of bacteria. 0.94

00:59:48.000 Yeah, I'm sorry.

00:59:49.000 Rain's not going to wash that away.

00:59:51.000 It's going to be months and it's still going to be there.

00:59:53.000 It's going to be festering.

00:59:54.000 That's a city.

00:59:55.000 So I've argued with Michael Maus, for instance, about overpopulation and climate change.

01:00:00.000 I think it's a problem.

01:00:01.000 And then ultimately we come to the agreement, well, population density in cities is a problem.

01:00:05.000 Sure.

01:00:05.000 Agreed.

01:00:06.000 These cities are bad.

01:00:07.000 What do we do to get people to stop being in cities?

01:00:10.000 I mean, for one, the cities are struggling to maintain themselves.

01:00:13.000 But also, when all of these humans, when you get like 10 million humans in one area all taking a dump at the same time, that goes into one place.

01:00:20.000 The rain and the water can't wash it away.

01:00:22.000 You spread those people out over a few hundred square miles, and now the rain can deal with that, and the earth can, you know, rebalance everything.

01:00:29.000 What I don't get is, I'm looking at the World Economic Forum website, weforum.org, I think that's it, but the world's megacities, they want to build megacities by 2030.

01:00:38.000 Of course they do.

01:00:38.000 I don't understand this logic, because if they're centralized, dangerous, starvation vulnerabilities, why would they try and make more of it?

01:00:48.000 You just explained it.

01:00:49.000 Like they want to control people's food?

01:00:51.000 These are not good people, bro.

01:00:53.000 You're thinking under the... See, this is the problem that normal, decent, kind, and compassionate people have.

01:00:59.000 It's really hard to understand someone willfully doing something that is cruel or harmful to others.

01:01:08.000 You can't get your head around it because you're always trying to think, well, they must mean well.

01:01:12.000 And there are people who don't.

01:01:15.000 There are people who don't, right?

01:01:17.000 There are people who do not care about human beings and do not care about humanity and they're not good people.

01:01:22.000 So you can't view them through this lens of them wanting to help you.

01:01:28.000 I'll give you a good example.

01:01:29.000 Adam Kinzinger.

01:01:30.000 I think he's the perfect example of he doesn't care about people.

01:01:35.000 Who's that?

01:01:35.000 I'm not sure I'm familiar.

01:01:36.000 He's a Republican on the January 6th committee.

01:01:39.000 Okay.

01:01:40.000 And he's going off and off about Trump and how the Republicans are bad and all that stuff.

01:01:44.000 But this guy's not running for re-election.

01:01:46.000 All he's doing is setting fire to the house as he leaves.

01:01:49.000 He could say, look, clearly this is not for me.

01:01:52.000 Clearly what's happening in this country is a problem.

01:01:53.000 I'm out.

01:01:54.000 I'm leaving right now.

01:01:55.000 Instead he says, I'm not going to run for re-election, but I am going to inflame tensions to the most extreme degree possible, starting fires before I go.

01:02:02.000 Yeah.

01:02:03.000 There's no reason to do that.

01:02:04.000 It's a real thing.

01:02:05.000 I mean, dude, you see this on a small scale on social media every day, right?

01:02:09.000 There are people on there.

01:02:10.000 Fortunately, you know, they don't have like giant followings or a lot of influence and power, but they're purely, they're purely destructive, right?

01:02:17.000 It's purely destructive and malicious energy.

01:02:18.000 There's nothing positive that they're doing.

01:02:21.000 They're literally just, they're trying to hurt people, trying to bully people, trying to attack people.

01:02:24.000 And they're doing it day in, day out, right?

01:02:26.000 Now you take someone with that type of psychology and you actually put them in a position of power and influence.

01:02:32.000 Like, what are they going to do?

01:02:33.000 Again, we've seen this in history.

01:02:36.000 And there are people like that who exist.

01:02:38.000 It's a very, very tiny, minute fragment of the population.

01:02:41.000 But there are 8 billion people in this world.

01:02:43.000 Perhaps.

01:02:44.000 So there are millions and millions of people.

01:02:47.000 Yeah. 0.97

01:02:47.000 Trolls. 0.97

01:02:48.000 Perhaps an emergent phenomenon. 0.55

01:02:49.000 You think troll will ever become taboo to say online?

01:02:52.000 Right.

01:02:53.000 Perhaps it's an emergent phenomenon that when meritocratic individuals create a safe and secure society, it protects individuals who normally would not survive.

01:03:02.000 Those people who can't survive, who use words like adulting because they can't live on their own without someone like... Better adulting.

01:03:10.000 Okay.

01:03:10.000 Like, well, you might have to fight a bear for food one day or something.

01:03:13.000 These people can't survive.

01:03:14.000 You end up with a large portion of anti-meritocratic individuals who don't make systems work, they vote against the interests of those who do, and the system flips over.

01:03:22.000 The boat collapses, the strong of course climb up, learn to swim and survive, and all of those weak people get... gulag'd or whatever.

01:03:31.000 It's the adaptable.

01:03:32.000 It's the ones that get capsized and figure out how to get to shore to rebuild society again that are the ones that survive it.

01:03:38.000 And the strongest may just go down because they don't think quick enough.

01:03:41.000 They're so used to their own system that they've created and they're very good at it that when the system capsizes, they don't understand Right, but that's basically what it means.

01:03:50.000 It doesn't mean a guy who can lift 50 pounds.

01:03:52.000 It literally means those who are capable, intelligent, and understand are likely to perceive threats, plan ahead effectively, and survive.

01:04:01.000 It's a Darwin quote.

01:04:01.000 It's not the strongest of the species that will survive, but the ones that are most adaptable to change.

01:04:06.000 Right.

01:04:07.000 So basically, that's the general concept.

01:04:11.000 When a crisis is happening, who's most adaptable to change?

01:04:14.000 Well, first and foremost, the people paying attention who are watching it come.

01:04:17.000 And that aren't connected to any one ideology.

01:04:19.000 Let's say there's a bunch of people in a tribe on an island.

01:04:22.000 And half of them have been noticing something weird happening on the shoreline.

01:04:27.000 They're paying attention and the other people are like, we don't care.

01:04:29.000 We don't care.

01:04:29.000 Nothing's going to happen.

01:04:31.000 Well, the people who are, who noticed the change are the ones who are more adaptable.

01:04:35.000 And then they go, we're going to go climb that hill real quick.

01:04:38.000 And then the tsunami comes and everyone else gets wiped away.

01:04:40.000 Yeah.

01:04:40.000 People that are like, God will save me.

01:04:43.000 Like, get that out of your mind right now.

01:04:44.000 You save yourself.

01:04:47.000 Perhaps.

01:04:49.000 I mean, I disagree with that framing of it.

01:04:51.000 No one, at least I hope, no one thinks that like, I don't know, if they're on the street and they get mugged, that Jesus is going to come save them from getting mugged.

01:05:00.000 I don't think they think that.

01:05:01.000 They're talking about their spiritual lives, not their physical I know it's comforting to think that there's a being that's protecting you, but it's not.

01:05:11.000 You've got to protect yourself in this harsh reality.

01:05:14.000 I mean, they're talking about spiritual protection, not, like, famine won't happen because Jesus will save us from famine.

01:05:21.000 If I pray enough, it's not going to not happen.

01:05:24.000 No one thinks that.

01:05:25.000 No one thinks like that.

01:05:26.000 I hope so.

01:05:27.000 It's the harsh ideology.

01:05:29.000 Suffering is like the cornerstone of the Christian faith. 0.98

01:05:34.000 Buddhism too.

01:05:35.000 Some people certainly believe it.

01:05:36.000 There are people who believe that God is a man in the clouds, like sitting there watching everybody.

01:05:40.000 That's just one ideology.

01:05:42.000 Don't think the government's going to save you.

01:05:43.000 Don't think God's going to save you.

01:05:44.000 Don't think your neighbor's going to save you.

01:05:46.000 You have to protect yourself and your interests.

01:05:48.000 What's the saying?

01:05:49.000 God helps those who help themselves.

01:05:50.000 Yeah, it's true.

01:05:51.000 There's another saying, chance favors the prepared.

01:05:53.000 You can call it any way you want it.

01:05:56.000 If you are not doing what you have to do to be prepared for what might be happening, well then, what's going to happen?

01:06:03.000 I think, you know, options are always good.

01:06:08.000 And I think that something that people should really know by now is to just have options, right?

01:06:16.000 Have options in terms of places you can live, ways you can earn money, things you can do.

01:06:22.000 Don't be so... I don't know, like maybe because of how I've grown up and the fact that I travel so much, I've got I know I have a different view than most people, but I think that you were talking about the big cities, and I think that something that really happens, of course, is just inertia, right?

01:06:37.000 Like it's hard to, if you're used to a place, especially if you've grown up somewhere and you live there and your friends and families are there and it's what you know.

01:06:47.000 It's hard to up and move.

01:06:49.000 I understand that.

01:06:50.000 It can be difficult emotionally.

01:06:51.000 It can be financially.

01:06:53.000 You might have a job or a career.

01:06:54.000 I'm not saying that it's just super duper easy for everybody, but I think that seeing where just the level of uncertainty in so much of this stuff It is wise to just bear that in mind and take take steps don't just sit there and say oh you know the the end is coming the end it's like okay take take some steps if you haven't already been doing it over the past few years take some steps so that if stuff does hit the fan or you are getting very uncomfortable or

01:07:23.000 Whatever it is, you've got options.

01:07:25.000 Having options is always wise.

01:07:27.000 Let me pull up this story from Fox 4.

01:07:29.000 Do you know what a country is defined as?

01:07:31.000 Anybody know what a country is defined as?

01:07:33.000 A country?

01:07:33.000 air travel. So I decided to research some basic definitions.

01:07:38.000 Do you know what a country is defined as? Anybody know what a country is defined as? A

01:07:43.000 country? Yes. How do you define the word I can give what I think is a definition.

01:07:49.000 It might not match up exactly.

01:07:51.000 Let's hear it.

01:07:52.000 I would say an area or region with some degree of jurisdiction over it and has to have a border.

01:08:07.000 The region has jurisdiction?

01:08:08.000 It's like a rock monster owns the land that it is?

01:08:11.000 Well, yeah, I would say, okay, a piece of land or a region with a border, it's got some geographical... And you need one more component.

01:08:20.000 ...capacity, and then some type of governance structure.

01:08:24.000 People.

01:08:25.000 People.

01:08:26.000 A country is defined as a nation with set borders.

01:08:29.000 Okay, and a nation is a group of people with a shared history and set of laws history culture or set of laws

01:08:35.000 Okay, so when you combine that you have nation and country, they're not the same thing. The United States is a country

01:08:41.000 It is a nation with borders So when we have a wave of mil a million plus illegal

01:08:45.000 immigrants entering the country Then you have no country if the borders can't be enforced 1.00

01:08:51.000 so the Latin for country is against or opposite and And then the other part of it from the medieval Latin is

01:08:58.000 against a lying opposite lance.

01:08:59.000 So you're literally in opposition to the other land that is close to you.

01:09:03.000 So when you have a million people under the borders and there's nothing being done about it, when you have the government facilitating the trafficking of children, which the Biden administration has been doing in the dead of night secretly, There's no borders.

01:09:14.000 You have no country.

01:09:15.000 Now, about that nation.

01:09:17.000 Yes, a shared history.

01:09:19.000 Well, you don't have a shared history with people coming from other nations entering in violation of your laws. 0.97

01:09:24.000 So there's no shared history, and there's no shared laws, and there's no shared culture.

01:09:28.000 There is no nation.

01:09:29.000 There is no country.

01:09:31.000 Giving ID cards to illegal immigrants that could be used for air travel?

01:09:35.000 This is just creating open citizenship.

01:09:38.000 Why do you think they're doing this?

01:09:40.000 It's destroying the United States.

01:09:41.000 They're actively destroying the United States.

01:09:43.000 To me, this is the controlled demolition again, because it's like, well, why would you do that?

01:09:49.000 Let me simplify real quick for everybody at home.

01:09:53.000 Zuby, let's say you have a big granary.

01:09:56.000 Let's say you have a big storage facility full of food.

01:09:59.000 And your guards open the doors and say, everybody come on in!

01:10:02.000 And you're like, but that's where I keep all my stuff.

01:10:04.000 And they're like, bigot.

01:10:06.000 So, uh, look, this country is wealthy, but you can't just have an endless flow of people coming in.

01:10:12.000 Even Bernie Sanders said the exact same thing at a rally in 2015.

01:10:16.000 He said, you know, heavens, if we open the borders, we'd be flooded by the world's poor.

01:10:20.000 We can't do that.

01:10:21.000 Yeah.

01:10:21.000 Back when Bernie cared about the working class, I guess.

01:10:24.000 I think that people believe that the avalanche only flows one direction, and so they're just getting on board.

01:10:30.000 They're trying to surf the wave.

01:10:31.000 They're like, nationalism is done, globalism is now, one earthen country, and let's just do it.

01:10:38.000 Not possible.

01:10:39.000 Yeah.

01:10:41.000 It's going to be abrupt, and a lot of people will get hurt in the process, but like a world government?

01:10:46.000 Duh.

01:10:46.000 People definitely seem to want that.

01:10:48.000 I'm gonna call it the liberal international economy, by the way.

01:10:51.000 That's L-I-E from here on out. 1.00

01:10:54.000 Yeah, I love it.

01:10:55.000 It's the lie.

01:10:56.000 So, when you go to Egypt, for instance, Egyptians aren't allowed to gamble or eat pork.

01:11:01.000 Like, by government law.

01:11:03.000 So how are we supposed to have a one world government when it's like, we're going to get a big shipment of pork in for our bacon, and then a bunch of other countries are like, no, no, no.

01:11:11.000 Our tax dollars can't go to that.

01:11:14.000 You're not allowed to do that.

01:11:15.000 That's essentially what they're trying to do, making entertainment into something global.

01:11:19.000 Yeah, it doesn't work.

01:11:21.000 There's not even a common language.

01:11:23.000 Like you can't even communicate properly with most people in the world.

01:11:27.000 Let me tell you guys, you ever see the Just For Laugh gags?

01:11:30.000 No.

01:11:30.000 Oh, I think so.

01:11:31.000 They're like those YouTube videos where there's one where it's really funny.

01:11:33.000 A little girl, she has four buckets.

01:11:36.000 Ones, two of them are full completely with change.

01:11:39.000 Then two of them have a false top with change on top.

01:11:42.000 And so she walks over, or she waves someone over, and then she asks them for help carrying.

01:11:47.000 She grabs the fake light buckets, it's like a little girl, and she carries them. 0.80

01:11:50.000 And the other people try to lift the heavy things full of change, they can't do it.

01:11:53.000 And they're like, how is this little girl carrying this?

01:11:55.000 There's no dialogue at all, just music.

01:11:57.000 This was entertainment made for a global audience, not a word being said.

01:12:02.000 So when you want to create global entertainment, no dialogue.

01:12:05.000 That's how the trailer for Avatar was, the second Avatar movie.

01:12:09.000 All just like B-roll of CGI oceans and aliens and jungles and like ambient music.

01:12:17.000 And I'm like, what am I watching right now?

01:12:19.000 What is the story?

01:12:20.000 There's none.

01:12:21.000 That's it.

01:12:22.000 Yeah.

01:12:23.000 Yeah.

01:12:23.000 I'm not worried about One World Government.

01:12:25.000 That one's not going to happen.

01:12:26.000 I mean, no, I think it will happen.

01:12:28.000 Just not now.

01:12:28.000 You think it'll happen?

01:12:29.000 I think it's an inevitability.

01:12:30.000 I think it's impossible to avoid.

01:12:32.000 How so?

01:12:32.000 Why do you think that?

01:12:33.000 So technological advancement, the rapid communications development, is going to result in a global shared culture, just not anytime soon.

01:12:43.000 By soon I mean like five to ten years, but you give it a couple generations, especially with, if we have air travel, then I think it's possible to have one world government through cultural expansion, but they're also shutting down air travel.

01:13:00.000 But they're also creating metaverse and virtual reality.

01:13:03.000 So already, I used to play video games with people in Oceania and China and Japan, like World of Warcraft, for instance.

01:13:10.000 Those people are friends.

01:13:12.000 They have cultural bonds stronger than their next door neighbors.

01:13:15.000 That's the kind of thing that precipitates one world government.

01:13:18.000 I don't think most people are going to have any remote interest in that.

01:13:22.000 I think it's an extraordinarily hard sell.

01:13:24.000 What is?

01:13:25.000 I don't think you're not going to get majority of the world onto VR and the metaverse and all that.

01:13:30.000 I don't think it's, I don't think so.

01:13:32.000 I think you will.

01:13:33.000 I don't know if it'll be the iteration that we're seeing now, but bro, we're already there.

01:13:36.000 You live on Twitter.

01:13:37.000 That's your virtual person.

01:13:39.000 I'm not normal.

01:13:40.000 Like I, you'll get some people, you'll get, there's 8 billion plus people in this world and most people live in lives, nothing like what we've got.

01:13:46.000 And what, what did Mark Zuckerberg, Google and Starlink, what have they been, and Elon Musk, what have they been trying to do over the past 10 years?

01:13:53.000 They're trying to connect people in various ways.

01:13:55.000 They had Project Loon, where they were like, can we get internet to, you know, like the middle of Africa with giant balloons floating in the stratosphere, broadcasting.

01:14:04.000 We've got low orbit satellite technology.

01:14:06.000 They know they need to wire all of these people.

01:14:09.000 That's what I'm saying.

01:14:10.000 Once you get everybody on the internet, and there's such luxury that comes with being online, such advantage, that's what precipitates the expansion.

01:14:18.000 I think you'll get everyone on the internet.

01:14:20.000 I don't think you're going to get everyone running around in headsets or sitting there in headsets.

01:14:24.000 Well, that's like saying, I can't imagine everyone's going to put a vinyl record player in their home or like it's Joe Biden saying.

01:14:30.000 I think these are really different.

01:14:31.000 I think they're quite different.

01:14:33.000 When we get to the point where your Neuralink implant is put in at birth and you don't have a say in the matter, yeah, we'll get there.

01:14:38.000 What makes you, why be so pessimistic in that?

01:14:41.000 I assume you think this is a bad thing.

01:14:43.000 It's not pessimistic.

01:14:43.000 Do you think that's a bad thing?

01:14:45.000 I think it's a neutral thing.

01:14:48.000 I think people, yeah, I think it's a relatively neutral thing.

01:14:52.000 I think technology is not good or bad.

01:14:53.000 I do think it leans toward the bad because we know corrupt people will exploit all of this for personal gain.

01:14:59.000 And we could potentially end up in an equilibrium type future where everyone has their emotions and thoughts suppressed and the global leaders live freely and enjoy the perks of being human.

01:15:08.000 Yeah.

01:15:09.000 But ultimately, look.

01:15:10.000 Look what Twitter has done.

01:15:11.000 Look what Facebook and YouTube have become.

01:15:13.000 The rapid expansion of social media in only 10 years.

01:15:16.000 People are going online and they're already existing with a digital version of themselves.

01:15:20.000 And it's only expanded more and more.

01:15:22.000 Maybe Mark Zuckerberg's legless metaverse is not going to be the version of WIRED that everyone gets into, but already AOC, for instance, is not representing New York's 14.

01:15:34.000 She's representing progressive Twitter.

01:15:36.000 Sure.

01:15:36.000 She gets money because one person in every city may have a fringe worldview, but together online they make up a massive, powerful economic bloc.

01:15:47.000 They support someone like AOC and then she wins. 0.99

01:15:49.000 Her ideas are unpopular and wouldn't have won, but because all of the weird, fringe, far-left people were able to raise money online, So that created something that exists outside of a nation.

01:16:00.000 I saw this back going to 2010, and we've seen it further.

01:16:05.000 Look at Ukraine.

01:16:06.000 Look at warfare over the past 10 years, when you have individual actors joining nation states in conflict, when hackers in the United States were aiding in the revolutions in North Africa and the Middle East.

01:16:18.000 This is global government.

01:16:19.000 When you have U.S.

01:16:20.000 citizens teaming up with a network of citizens and then going and fighting in Ukraine, this is global government.

01:16:26.000 It is the precursor.

01:16:27.000 It's coming.

01:16:28.000 I don't think so.

01:16:29.000 We'll see.

01:16:30.000 We need one, I don't know if we need it, but one language.

01:16:32.000 You'd mentioned earlier that everybody speaks one language.

01:16:34.000 I thought English, it would be English just because of capitalism and the way corporatism is putting McDonald's all over the place and people watch Hollywood movies.

01:16:43.000 I thought for sure the whole world will be speaking English.

01:16:46.000 It'll be considered like common in D&D.

01:16:48.000 But I don't know if that's the case now.

01:16:51.000 We need to get internet to everybody and fresh water to everybody.

01:16:54.000 I kind of do because I think the other option is self-destruction.

01:16:57.000 I kind of do because I think the other option is self-destruction.

01:17:05.000 If we don't connect, we're going to be we'll fight unless we're together.

01:17:09.000 You know, the Internet togetherness.

01:17:12.000 It's a form of unity for sure.

01:17:14.000 Like what we're doing right now, there's like 50,000 people watching live or something like that.

01:17:17.000 It's intense unity.

01:17:18.000 I disagree that that's a community though.

01:17:20.000 Yeah, not everyone needs to be unified for there not to be severe conflict.

01:17:25.000 You can't unify everybody.

01:17:26.000 People are just too freaking different.

01:17:28.000 But not necessarily like we all have to do the same thing, but that we all have some sort of common purpose or ideal.

01:17:34.000 I mean, we do as human beings.

01:17:35.000 I mean, I think that's always existed.

01:17:38.000 But past a certain level, people are too different, and people have such different interests, and you travel around the world, go to different countries.

01:17:46.000 They're not all... People need conflict.

01:17:49.000 They're not all joining.

01:17:50.000 It's hard enough to reunite the USA.

01:17:53.000 They need conflict resolution.

01:17:55.000 It's hard enough to reunite the USA, let alone the world.

01:17:58.000 One proposed hypothesis, I'm not an evolutionary biologist, psychologist, or anthropologist, But why is it that Europe advanced more than the Americas?

01:18:09.000 Why did the Native American populations... Coffee. 1.00

01:18:11.000 Man, did they go on nitro when they... Proximity.

01:18:14.000 ...inserted coffee into their... Proximity.

01:18:16.000 The European tribes were... Roman roads. 0.99

01:18:19.000 They were boxed in in a peninsula with very little room to flee to.

01:18:24.000 So when resources would become strained, they'd kill each other to survive, causing a tit-for-tat expansion of technologies in order to survive.

01:18:32.000 In the Americas, it was so vast The tribes would just leave.

01:18:37.000 So if you look at animals, for instance, badgers, why are they so vicious?

01:18:40.000 They're burrowing animals.

01:18:41.000 They have one dimension.

01:18:43.000 When they're confronted with an attacker at the front of their burrow, they can either fight or they can die.

01:18:48.000 So of course, natural selection predicted that they'd be vicious.

01:18:52.000 Birds.

01:18:53.000 Why don't birds attack you?

01:18:54.000 Why do they run away?

01:18:55.000 Because they have multiple dimensions.

01:18:56.000 They have three dimensions.

01:18:57.000 They can just go up and leave.

01:18:58.000 So they're much less likely to require conflict, more likely to survive if you escape the battle.

01:19:04.000 In Europe, you had humans nowhere to escape to.

01:19:07.000 It's a peninsula.

01:19:08.000 So, in certain parts, it's like, fight or don't.

01:19:12.000 In the Americas, it's like, yo, I got everywhere else to be, so I'm not gonna fight you if I don't have to.

01:19:18.000 When two different groups of people are fighting next to each other for a long enough period of time, they're constantly one-upping each other.

01:19:23.000 It's an artificial evolutionary conflict happening technologically.

01:19:27.000 So, if humans today Stopped fighting.

01:19:32.000 And there was no conflict.

01:19:33.000 What would they do?

01:19:35.000 Play video games all day?

01:19:36.000 Not much, yeah. 0.93

01:19:36.000 Watch porn all day? 0.93

01:19:37.000 And this is what we're starting to see.

01:19:38.000 There's no conflict, so what do people do?

01:19:40.000 It's WALL-E.

01:19:41.000 Get fat, sit in their lounge chairs, and complain, and just want free stuff to be pleasured and gratified.

01:19:48.000 That's what happens. 0.90

01:19:49.000 Yeah.

01:19:49.000 One thing I've been thinking about a lot recently, especially when it comes to children now, or the next generation and so on, is You know, I think everyone understands and realizes that as human beings, as individuals, and even as a wider society, you need conflict and struggle and hardship in order to develop a resilience, right?

01:20:14.000 Develop grit, resilience, a stronger personality, ability to withstand stuff.

01:20:20.000 and I think so many of the problems that we have right now and we're dealing with in the West as Tim's alluded to already is just Just people are weak.

01:20:27.000 People are fragile emotionally.

01:20:29.000 Oh my gosh, you misgendered me like like the whole woke. 0.99

01:20:31.000 It's all based in weakness It's based in victimology, you know nerf the world instead of making yourself stronger That's really been the attitude for quite a while now and I often wonder how is that if there is a way maybe the answer is no, but is there a way to rather without having Taking people through this certain grind of hardship.

01:20:52.000 Is there a way to consistently say, raise strong minded and even physically strong children without, you know, who aren't just going to grow up to be these, these lame snowflakes or whatever you want to call them without having to go through necessarily all the same nonsense that their parents or ancestors did?

01:21:13.000 There's a viral post, it's hilarious, where someone, some Antifa person is like, you better believe the right is arming up and training and you better be as equally trained and armed as they are for the coming conflict.

01:21:24.000 And what do you think the left's response was to that?

01:21:29.000 When we say the left, who do we mean?

01:21:31.000 Leftists, Antifa, etc.

01:21:34.000 What was their response to someone on the left saying, you need to start training and get ready for a conflict with the right?

01:21:39.000 You can't tell me what to do.

01:21:42.000 Some of us aren't physically capable.

01:21:45.000 Your tweet is ableist.

01:21:50.000 And then they apologize saying, we understand that not everyone is able to physically train and there are other ways to help.

01:21:57.000 That was so sad.

01:21:58.000 A lot of them just ended up saying, man, I'm just so depressed.

01:22:02.000 Was this on Twitter?

01:22:03.000 Yep.

01:22:03.000 One guy was like, yo, I'm depressed.

01:22:05.000 Just use me as a human shield.

01:22:07.000 Oh, wow.

01:22:08.000 You know what?

01:22:09.000 I know why they're depressed too.

01:22:10.000 Jordan Peterson, man, he's, he's, he's, well, the, the, the, the depression, he's killing it.

01:22:17.000 You know, he's saving young people in general if they just listen to him.

01:22:20.000 Yo, people are depressed because they have no purpose, they have no drive, no internal conflict, no responsibility.

01:22:27.000 They're just sitting around staring at the TV like, what for?

01:22:29.000 Yeah, you have to... I mean, one thing I know for myself, right, because I'm not sitting here pretending, oh, I came from some rough background or whatever, like I'm blessed, like I'm super privileged in many regards.

01:22:40.000 But I've had, I've created my own hardship in many ways, right?

01:22:45.000 Like there are ways that, you know, in terms of your, whether it's your career or, I mean, what even is going to the gym?

01:22:53.000 Going to the gym is going and artificially creating resistance, whether to build your lung capacity or improve your cardiovascular system or increase your muscles.

01:23:06.000 Like, our ancestors would be like, what on earth are, what's everyone in this room doing?

01:23:11.000 Why don't you just do your farm work or do your work?

01:23:15.000 I was talking about this recently.

01:23:16.000 We had, we purchased like wild caught salmon or whatever.

01:23:21.000 And I was like, so people in the US who have money can order fresh fish.

01:23:25.000 Lower to middle class people get garbage farm fish and then third world poor people eat fresh fish. 1.00

01:23:32.000 And so the funny thing is like, we have a lake out here.

01:23:35.000 You're allowed to fish, but you got to throw the fish back. 0.99

01:23:38.000 And I was like, that's the stupidest thing I ever heard. 0.98

01:23:41.000 I understand we got to throw the fish back. 0.99

01:23:42.000 I'm just like, why go fishing for no reason?

01:23:43.000 It's like people like simulating survival.

01:23:46.000 Exactly.

01:23:47.000 Dude, that's what it all is.

01:23:48.000 Why are people so drawn to sport?

01:23:50.000 Yeah.

01:23:50.000 Right?

01:23:50.000 Like so many of the things that we do when we find impress... It's like you're making your life harder than it needs to be.

01:23:58.000 You're creating the artificial pressures and... Why are so many people now getting into MMA and combat sports and stuff like that?

01:24:06.000 It's because you need to... You're not gonna get it in your day-to-day life, right?

01:24:11.000 You don't need to do anything.

01:24:13.000 I say we do away with war and we replace it with the sporting event.

01:24:17.000 Soccer maybe, I don't know.

01:24:19.000 Football.

01:24:20.000 Football or soccer.

01:24:22.000 Whoever wins gets to name it.

01:24:24.000 It certainly helps.

01:24:25.000 I also, by the way, I think this is part of why so many people snapped in 2020 because all the usual outlets for energy and tension and even just the social... It was just allowed to pile up.

01:24:39.000 Zuby, where is everybody?

01:24:41.000 Where's everybody?

01:24:42.000 So we got a pilot shortage, right?

01:24:44.000 We have, like, medical worker shortages.

01:24:46.000 We've got labor shortages across the board.

01:24:48.000 Didn't they fire a bunch of people last year?

01:24:49.000 But how do people just stop working?

01:24:51.000 Where does that food come from?

01:24:54.000 Food is very easy to acquire.

01:24:57.000 Oh, sorry, you mean if these people stop working?

01:24:59.000 How are they paying their rent?

01:25:02.000 Um, sorry, wait, let's rewind this.

01:25:06.000 Airlines are shutting down thousands of flights.

01:25:08.000 Okay.

01:25:08.000 I wasn't even aware of that.

01:25:09.000 Yeah.

01:25:10.000 Pilot shortage.

01:25:10.000 Is this specifically in the USA or all over?

01:25:12.000 I think it's all over the world.

01:25:14.000 Okay.

01:25:14.000 I mean, it's heavily in the US.

01:25:15.000 I follow US news, but a pilot shortage.

01:25:18.000 And I'm like, where did those pilots go?

01:25:19.000 Did they just stop working?

01:25:21.000 And if they did, how are they paying their bills?

01:25:23.000 How are they buying food?

01:25:24.000 But it's not just that.

01:25:25.000 You go to fast food restaurants and they got signs on the door saying like, we're understaffed.

01:25:28.000 I've seen that.

01:25:29.000 All over the place.

01:25:31.000 We went out on Memorial Day weekend.

01:25:33.000 Nobody.

01:25:34.000 I'm like, where are the people at?

01:25:36.000 Where'd they all go?

01:25:38.000 Where are the workers?

01:25:39.000 How is it that people stopped working and didn't start working again?

01:25:43.000 I don't understand.

01:25:44.000 Like, you're a pilot.

01:25:45.000 What are you gonna do?

01:25:46.000 Go be a mailman?

01:25:46.000 Why would you do that?

01:25:47.000 You're a pilot.

01:25:48.000 I don't know.

01:25:49.000 I'm not familiar with the pilot thing at all.

01:25:50.000 Why do you mean generally speaking?

01:25:52.000 How is there a shortage of these jobs?

01:25:55.000 Are they just choosing not to hire them back or something?

01:25:57.000 But where's everybody else?

01:25:58.000 How is it that people stopped working and they're not working now?

01:26:00.000 Where's their food coming from?

01:26:01.000 How are they paying utilities?

01:26:03.000 How are they paying rent or mortgages?

01:26:05.000 I don't know.

01:26:06.000 I'm not, I'm not super familiar with this issue.

01:26:08.000 So I don't, I don't really know what's been happening.

01:26:10.000 I'm concerned that there's a black market evolving that people don't know about.

01:26:13.000 And I'm really concerned that people, great, amazing humans that got screwed over by the last two years worth of mandates and whatever running out of money are going to turn to nefarious things to get by like human trafficking and things like that.

01:26:28.000 I, man, I I'd, I'd be cautious of predicting something that dark.

01:26:34.000 Yeah, I just want to get it on the table now.

01:26:35.000 So in 10 years, you guys remember I said at first, to put nothing past anyone in desperate times.

01:26:41.000 I made the joke to Seamus that the rapture happened.

01:26:45.000 And then he was like, well, certainly I couldn't have, you know, cause he's devout Catholic.

01:26:49.000 So it's like, Hey, wait a minute.

01:26:50.000 You know, what are you saying?

01:26:51.000 But no, man, look, we, I mean, obviously I see people out doing stuff.

01:26:55.000 We went and played pool the other day and had wings.

01:26:58.000 Good fun.

01:26:58.000 A lot of people out there playing pool on a weekend.

01:27:01.000 But when you hear about all these labor shortages, and when I go to like a Chipotle and they're like, we're understaffed, please bear with us.

01:27:08.000 I'm like, how is it possible that people just aren't working?

01:27:12.000 There is a lot of laziness as well.

01:27:13.000 And again, inertia.

01:27:15.000 I get it.

01:27:15.000 But like, how do they get food?

01:27:18.000 But hasn't this always been a question?

01:27:19.000 I mean, there are lots of people, there's millions and millions and millions of people who don't work and haven't been working for a long time.

01:27:27.000 And they somehow get by.

01:27:28.000 I don't know if it's just welfare or if it's, I don't even know what all the schemes and stuff like that are.

01:27:34.000 I just work, you know, we just work.

01:27:36.000 But there are millions of people in this country, in any country, who don't work and they're alive.

01:27:44.000 Yeah, I suppose.

01:27:45.000 I don't know exactly what they do.

01:27:46.000 Have we expanded the welfare state to such a point that we can have labor shortages and keep giving them money?

01:27:52.000 Maybe.

01:27:52.000 I honestly have no idea what the welfare structure Looks like here how much more money is being spent now than was two or three years ago.

01:28:00.000 I have no idea what any of that looks like.

01:28:02.000 So they say that the poor people in the U.S.

01:28:04.000 rival some of the richer people in Europe because our welfare system is incredibly deep.

01:28:09.000 There's a lot of layers to it.

01:28:11.000 So I think that might be where they're all going.

01:28:13.000 I think that over the course of the pandemic, they realized, oh my gosh, I don't really have to work.

01:28:17.000 I'm non-essential, right?

01:28:19.000 I can work from home.

01:28:19.000 People have pointed out retirement, but that doesn't explain fast food restaurants.

01:28:23.000 That doesn't explain yogurt shops and burger joints.

01:28:26.000 I know retirement is one of the ones for pilots, because I did see something saying that they're not training up enough new pilots.

01:28:33.000 They're raising the age over time, too.

01:28:35.000 Oh, really?

01:28:35.000 Wow.

01:28:36.000 Just quit?

01:28:37.000 Yeah, so there aren't enough people being incentivized to become pilots to compensate for the older ones who are leaving. 0.79

01:28:44.000 What bothers me the US government printing all that money in the last two years and then just started handing it out to people you're making you're sending people towards bankruptcy and then they're gonna stop paying their taxes because they can't afford to survive you fools and then if they're not then you're gonna have a revolution on your hands.

01:29:00.000 The USA is such a fascinating country because one thing that Americans always, always forget is how young this country is.

01:29:09.000 I always say that the USA is a teenager as far as countries go.

01:29:13.000 And also it's a giant teenager with 50 states.

01:29:17.000 An angry teenager with a desert eagle.

01:29:21.000 Like there's so many things that are unique about the USA that make it genuinely impossible to properly compare to Any other country in the world.

01:29:32.000 It's got so many things that are absolutely unique.

01:29:34.000 I mean, even if someone said, oh, let's, well, let's compare it to all of Europe.

01:29:39.000 It's like, maybe that's a better comparison than to one country in Europe, but it's also, it's, it's so, so different in so many ways.

01:29:47.000 Abusive father, you know, King George just beat the hell out of him.

01:29:51.000 I got this angry rage from our childhood.

01:29:54.000 Yeah, we had to emancipate ourselves.

01:29:56.000 We had to run away from home.

01:29:58.000 Like at age 12, it was crazy.

01:29:59.000 Sibling is still up there acting all wacky and elitist.

01:30:03.000 I love it that the left has this meme where they're like, the United States, Canada must feel like they've got like a dysfunctional sibling who's walking around with guns.

01:30:12.000 And I'm like, Who's the size of a toddler?

01:30:14.000 Maybe.

01:30:15.000 I kind of think it's like, you know, Canada is the snooty, frail, you know, sibling. 0.99

01:30:20.000 Canada's the Aunt Karen. 0.93

01:30:22.000 Canada didn't run away from home like America did. 0.68

01:30:24.000 No, but we were the children of, you know, the crown.

01:30:26.000 And so Canada was like, why are you fighting?

01:30:28.000 Just do what father says.

01:30:30.000 And we were like, no.

01:30:32.000 Honestly, every time I look at a map or a globe, I'm always like, like I look at this, the geographical size of the UK or Great Britain even, which is even smaller.

01:30:43.000 And I'm just like.

01:30:47.000 Physics.

01:30:47.000 It's like the size of New Jersey.

01:30:49.000 Isaac Newton.

01:30:50.000 Isaac Newton developed physics.

01:30:51.000 So England got the cannons first and then they could hit long range with their boats.

01:30:55.000 So they dominated the world.

01:30:56.000 They conquered India. 0.87

01:30:58.000 I know how it happens.

01:30:59.000 I just look at the size of the country.

01:31:01.000 It's amazing what technology can do for a small country, like a piece of tech.

01:31:04.000 That nuclear power is kind of like that nuclear weaponry.

01:31:06.000 Like Israel is heavily armed right now.

01:31:08.000 They're massively influential on the world stage.

01:31:10.000 Well, we give them money so that they can build weapons.

01:31:15.000 Yes.

01:31:16.000 There you go.

01:31:18.000 The Federal Reserve prints money.

01:31:20.000 I'm British, but I'm assuming the British also contribute.

01:31:23.000 Oh, yeah.

01:31:23.000 We put a bunch of money into Iraq and Afghanistan, Sudan and Sudan.

01:31:29.000 A ton of U.S.

01:31:30.000 dollars goes into people.

01:31:31.000 There's a map showing you all the spending.

01:31:33.000 And it's funny because you get these certain countries that get all of the attention, like in the Middle East or Israel.

01:31:38.000 And then you're like, have you taken a look at Central America and Africa, man?

01:31:42.000 Because we put way more into some of these African countries and these conflicts.

01:31:46.000 Why Sudan? 0.62

01:31:47.000 It may not be Sudan anymore, this was years ago, but didn't we just deploy troops to Sudan recently?

01:31:53.000 I believe so.

01:31:54.000 What are those countries?

01:31:54.000 Conflicts?

01:31:55.000 It's so hard to keep track of even what's... I totally understand why some people just check out of politics completely and are like... Oh my gosh, I tried to read a bill, the language is intentionally obfuscatory, it's so...

01:32:11.000 Boring to read you gotta like get into that state of weird.

01:32:14.000 Yeah, and thus we have decreed that Act 1 colon section CB 3 C 2 4 1 3 What in the hell are you doing?

01:32:26.000 Instead of writing a bill that says, here's what the bill does, it will say, the language of this bill is changed to read in section 2A3, quote, and will include, end quote, to be in place of section 491, quote, AR15, quote, and you're like, notwithstanding, I gotta pull up these other bills and then replace words to understand what your bill does.

01:32:49.000 And they don't give you the other bill with the bill.

01:32:50.000 That's intentional.

01:32:51.000 And then they slip a little like, and 100,000 troops will be sent to Sudan.

01:32:55.000 But they say it in a little weird way and like page 72, subsection 3.

01:33:00.000 And then name the bill something nice that nobody can disagree with.

01:33:03.000 I wish Joe Biden would just come out and just be as overt as Trump was sometimes.

01:33:07.000 You know, because Trump was like, we're going to be selling weapons to Saudi Arabia.

01:33:09.000 It's great.

01:33:10.000 It's going to be great for our economy.

01:33:12.000 The entirety of the anti-war left was just like, he just said it.

01:33:17.000 He just came out and said it.

01:33:18.000 They were like, you guys remember that meme where Trump tweeted something and this journalist goes, I have been investigating this story for a year.

01:33:26.000 For a year, I've dedicated my career to finding out what was going on this meeting.

01:33:30.000 And he just tweeted it out.

01:33:32.000 He just said it.

01:33:33.000 It's like all my work.

01:33:36.000 That's Trump! 0.96

01:33:37.000 So Biden, if he came out and he was like, look, listen here, champ, we're gonna open the borders, destroy this country, send your kids overseas to die, that way China wins. 0.98

01:33:49.000 Come on. 0.78

01:33:50.000 I'd be like, yeah, right?

01:33:51.000 I'd be like, all right, well, there it is, on the table.

01:33:53.000 We're about to hit up some super chats, but I wanted to ask you about your book, because we have not talked about it much.

01:33:58.000 This is a children's book that you just created.

01:34:01.000 What's the plot?

01:34:02.000 Sure.

01:34:03.000 So the plot is, um, so I think it's important to say, so it's a collaboration with Brave Books and they're a company based in Texas that put out a new children's book every month.

01:34:13.000 They work with a range of different authors and influencers on this.

01:34:16.000 So I wanted to do one that was, a lot of their books are more conservative leaning, more politically charged, but for a young audience.

01:34:26.000 But I wanted to do one that's totally apolitical.

01:34:29.000 I'd written a fitness book before.

01:34:30.000 I'm very passionate about health and fitness and taking care of your body.

01:34:33.000 And oddly, there aren't that many books aimed at the younger demographic on that topic.

01:34:39.000 So I was like, you know what?

01:34:39.000 Let me do something that's completely apolitical.

01:34:43.000 Childhood obesity is rising everywhere.

01:34:46.000 Adulthood obesity continues to rise.

01:34:49.000 And we need to talk about health and fitness and why this is important.

01:34:52.000 So the story is about a group of friends.

01:34:56.000 They're animal characters.

01:34:57.000 And I won't give away the complete plot.

01:35:00.000 But they're out in the desert.

01:35:03.000 And there is an incident where some pirates come and they raid them and they're not in good enough shape, essentially, to chase them off and to fight them away.

01:35:13.000 So they're there.

01:35:14.000 They retreat back and they're just there eating all their candy.

01:35:17.000 Like lazing around and then eventually one of them is like, look guys, we, you know, that was our bad.

01:35:22.000 We need to get in shape.

01:35:24.000 And so they go and they train and they, they get jacked.

01:35:28.000 And then the next time the, uh, the bad guys come, they managed to chase him away and get, well, that's basically the full plot, right?

01:35:34.000 It's the plot.

01:35:34.000 It's the plot, but it's, uh, it's more fun.

01:35:37.000 And it, and I made it all rhyme as a rapper.

01:35:39.000 I had to make sure that my children's book would rhyme.

01:35:42.000 Alright, let's go to Super Chats.

01:35:43.000 If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, and share the show if you really do like it.

01:35:48.000 Post that URL everywhere.

01:35:50.000 Head over to TimCast.com.

01:35:51.000 We're gonna have a members-only, uncensored show going up at about 11 p.m.

01:35:55.000 tonight.

01:35:56.000 We also have The Green Room with Carrie Lake, which is up, so if you're a big fan of her, and we definitely are, you can watch that, as well as Tales from the Inverted World.

01:36:02.000 I believe it's episode 4 is officially up.

01:36:05.000 And, uh, we're doing a whole lot of stuff.

01:36:06.000 Big announcements to come soon, but let's read some super chats.

01:36:09.000 Caleb W says, sitting in a hospital, awaiting the birth of my second son.

01:36:13.000 What a great way to celebrate MAGA month with Zuby.

01:36:19.000 Mr. Slytrip says, do you think every governor, dissent has included, whom shut down a church for a day, violated the first paragraph of the first amendment by making a pseudo law against establishments of religion and or our right to peaceably assemble?

01:36:31.000 Of course, that was a violation of the constitution.

01:36:33.000 That's it.

01:36:33.000 I don't know.

01:36:34.000 What else?

01:36:36.000 All right, Gadsden says, Tim Pool is Ben Shapiro if you gave him a skateboard when he was a kid instead of a violin.

01:36:42.000 Yes.

01:36:43.000 I was actually given a drum kit when I was like seven.

01:36:46.000 And then a guitar when I was like 12, so maybe.

01:36:50.000 But Ben Shapiro had a really funny joke.

01:36:51.000 When we were at the Daily Wire, I was playing Mario Kart with him.

01:36:55.000 And I was destroying Michael Knowles.

01:36:59.000 I think it was Knowles, Shapiro, and maybe Matt Walsh.

01:37:02.000 Pretty sure it was Matt Walsh.

01:37:03.000 And we were playing Mario Kart 64, and I just mopped the floor with him.

01:37:06.000 Because I'm, you know, good at Mario Kart, right?

01:37:08.000 So I did the wall jump in Wario Stadium, cut the course in half.

01:37:11.000 Michael Knowles was flabbergasted, didn't understand how he was in first place.

01:37:16.000 And then I missed the jump a couple times, and all of a sudden I just jump and boom, I'm at the end of the level in first place.

01:37:21.000 Ben Shapiro was just like, Yeah, I spent most of my childhood studying and then going to law school.

01:37:26.000 I wasn't playing video games.

01:37:27.000 And then he was like, he said a funny joke.

01:37:29.000 He was like, ladies and gentlemen, here's Tim Pool.

01:37:31.000 He spent his childhood playing video games and skateboarding while I went to law school.

01:37:35.000 He makes the same amount of money as me.

01:37:38.000 I was like, I don't have any funny jokes, but I can beat you at Mario Kart.

01:37:43.000 All right, Raymond G. Maga Stanley Jr.

01:37:44.000 says, I love the Tim Pool Trump quote, the bestest best.

01:37:48.000 Yeah, we were trying to figure out what to put on the Times Square billboards, and so we had two joke ones.

01:37:53.000 My brother, whose character is Reactor, said, the best podcast I, a 25 to 54-year-old male, has ever listened to.

01:38:00.000 And then mine was, it's the best podcast, everybody agrees, at least that's what I was told.

01:38:05.000 I literally was told that, though.

01:38:06.000 It is true.

01:38:06.000 I can't remember who it was that came on the show.

01:38:09.000 A couple people have said, like everybody says, it's like the best show, man.

01:38:12.000 I think Bannon said that.

01:38:14.000 Something like that.

01:38:14.000 He did, yeah.

01:38:15.000 He thought your producer was really great, too.

01:38:16.000 He did.

01:38:17.000 Just saying.

01:38:19.000 Yeah, maybe we should have Bannon back now that they're going after him.

01:38:23.000 All right, Grace Fang says, let those of us using PayPal to transfer payment methods without having to cancel.

01:38:28.000 Also, Twitter actively protects and supports pedophilia, Tim Pool.

01:38:31.000 I mean, but that's a statement of fact.

01:38:34.000 There's numerous news stories talking about them doing it.

01:38:37.000 I was like, okay, you want to play these games with me, Twitter?

01:38:39.000 I'll call out these news stories.

01:38:41.000 That's what I do.

01:38:43.000 For those of you that use PayPal on the website, I think most of you don't have to do anything.

01:38:49.000 If you signed up with PayPal for a membership on the website, eventually it'll just automatically process through Parallel Economy, and you don't have to do anything.

01:38:58.000 If you used a PayPal account to do it, then I don't know for sure.

01:39:03.000 But I will stress this again.

01:39:04.000 To tell your friends, we have been working really hard to get PayPal off the site as our payment processor.

01:39:11.000 And to use parallel economy, so we can support new technology from companies that don't hate you, or at the very least, like you a little bit.

01:39:19.000 Better than nothing, right?

01:39:22.000 All right, let's see.

01:39:24.000 Azalea Primrose says, is Mary one of the ghosts of the Civil War that followed Shane back to work? 0.88

01:39:30.000 I know if a ghost followed me home, I would be speechless by Michael Knowles.

01:39:34.000 And let's not forget about Honk Honk Chickens. 1.00

01:39:37.000 All right, very good.

01:39:38.000 Bravo, bravo.

01:39:39.000 Well, Mary? 0.93

01:39:40.000 Uh, I might be.

01:39:41.000 He's not doing a good job of finding me.

01:39:44.000 He's looking around like, where are the ghosts?

01:39:47.000 Sitting here on the show, apparently.

01:39:49.000 All right, let's see.

01:39:51.000 Rommel says, hey guys, my dog personally wanted to thank y'all for the new camera locations in Chicken City.

01:39:56.000 He said he very much enjoys watching for coyotes, and the new cameras let him clear the perimeter much better.

01:40:01.000 He has 20 bones.

01:40:02.000 Appreciate it.

01:40:02.000 Great.

01:40:03.000 Yeah, Chicken City has some major improvements.

01:40:06.000 Roberto Jr.

01:40:07.000 is the superstar.

01:40:08.000 He's up on a 96-foot billboard in Times Square.

01:40:11.000 I'm very, very happy and proud of that.

01:40:13.000 Chance Jones says, Tim, did you see Lauren Southern's recap video of the whole truth?

01:40:17.000 She gave you a pretty good shout out. 0.52

01:40:19.000 I did not see it.

01:40:20.000 I'm glad to hear though.

01:40:22.000 Lauren's really cool.

01:40:23.000 I think she's great.

01:40:23.000 And she's going to come hang out soon.

01:40:25.000 That's correct.

01:40:26.000 So super excited.

01:40:27.000 I was wondering, I know people were mentioning she put out a video about like the truth about behind the scenes and how fake people were.

01:40:32.000 And I was like, I wonder what she'd say about me.

01:40:35.000 But I think Lauren's very legit.

01:40:38.000 All right, let's see what we got here.

01:40:40.000 More Superchats.

01:40:42.000 Ben Andering says, Hey Tim, I want to help you set up your coffee slash game shop.

01:40:46.000 I sent an email to your info email and sent you a letter in the mail.

01:40:49.000 I want to help fight the culture war. 0.95

01:40:52.000 Um, the first thing we're doing is.

01:40:56.000 We are trying to find a venue and that's rather difficult, but we've got some there in the West Virginia area.

01:41:03.000 We're looking at one in Martinsburg.

01:41:05.000 We're looking at some in Charlestown.

01:41:06.000 We've got to figure out how we're going to do it.

01:41:08.000 And then, you know, the idea is these, these towns in West Virginia, they have like 30 to 40,000 people and they're very small, but if you build it, they will come.

01:41:16.000 At least that's what I've been told.

01:41:18.000 You are right.

01:41:18.000 So that's what we're going to do.

01:41:20.000 We're going to create spaces and get everyone to want to come out here and get away from the cities.

01:41:23.000 That's the plan, man.

01:41:27.000 Aiden Chavez says you guys should get Mike Glover from Fieldcraft Survivalung.

01:41:32.000 He said he was willing to go on.

01:41:33.000 Love the show and the guests you have on.

01:41:34.000 Zuby rocks!

01:41:35.000 Zuby does indeed rock.

01:41:36.000 We'll take a look at this, uh, who is it?

01:41:38.000 Mike Glover.

01:41:38.000 Mike Glover, I'm familiar.

01:41:40.000 Spencer...

01:41:42.000 Hermanat says, the minute TimCast launches a mobile app, I will be ending my YouTube Premium subscription and becoming a TimCast member.

01:41:49.000 We're working on it.

01:41:51.000 Yo, it's very difficult and expensive to do all this dev work, but we're working on it.

01:41:56.000 And you know, the thing is, like, I know, once we have a mobile app, like, we get more members, which means more money, which means we can build faster, and we're doing, we're going as fast as we can, I suppose.

01:42:05.000 But we're on it.

01:42:07.000 Maybe, yeah.

01:42:07.000 We should integrate parallel economy into the app.

01:42:10.000 Well, no, it is.

01:42:11.000 It is.

01:42:11.000 So the default method of payment on TimCast.com is Parallel Economy.

01:42:16.000 That means signing up at TimCast.com supports a Dan Bongino company, it opposes censorship, and it supports us more than anybody, but you gotta get more companies using Parallel Economy, because I would be very happy if one day it was like, PayPal?

01:42:32.000 You still use that?

01:42:33.000 No, we use Parallel Economy.

01:42:34.000 I'd never heard of it before, I'm gonna have to check it out.

01:42:37.000 Did you see what they did to Eric July?

01:42:38.000 I did.

01:42:38.000 PayPal?

01:42:38.000 They've frozen over a million of his dollars.

01:42:40.000 1.3 million.

01:42:41.000 His Ripaverse money.

01:42:42.000 Yep.

01:42:42.000 1.3 million.

01:42:42.000 No!

01:42:43.000 Not all of it, because some of it was done, like some people paid directly on his website, but there was like 1.2 million frozen right now that he doesn't have access to.

01:42:52.000 Eric!

01:42:53.000 You gotta get on Parallel Economy.

01:42:55.000 Well, it's too late now, right?

01:42:57.000 No, it's never too late.

01:42:59.000 Well, it's too late for the people who paid.

01:43:02.000 Their money's being seized by PayPal.

01:43:05.000 No, but I mean, there's no reason to keep using them.

01:43:07.000 Of course.

01:43:08.000 Look, I gotta be honest.

01:43:09.000 Parallel Economy is new.

01:43:10.000 It took us time to build the infrastructure around using their service, but it has been really great.

01:43:16.000 I gotta be honest.

01:43:16.000 Their website for tracking is way better than PayPal.

01:43:20.000 PayPal is getting by on market dominance, and they haven't updated in a long time, at least that's the way it seems.

01:43:25.000 So, yo, Eric, that's BS, man.

01:43:27.000 We gotta hit up Eric, man, have him back on the show and talk about that.

01:43:30.000 And on pop culture.

01:43:31.000 And on pop culture.

01:43:32.000 We talked about it today, actually.

01:43:34.000 And we need to get the Parallel Economy guys to just Mach 10 to getting Eric set up with a better payment system.

01:43:41.000 ParallelEconomy.com, sign up.

01:43:43.000 You can apply.

01:43:44.000 I'm actually in the process of doing it right now.

01:43:47.000 Wow, that's crazy, man.

01:43:50.000 All right.

01:43:51.000 We'll read some more.

01:43:51.000 Maybe we'll come back to that.

01:43:57.000 Hey! 0.99

01:43:57.000 I love to see it! 0.99

01:44:01.000 Madison lost his primary though, didn't he?

01:44:02.000 I don't know.

01:44:03.000 I think so.

01:44:03.000 Is that what happened?

01:44:05.000 Yeah.

01:44:05.000 But I'm glad someone's doing it.

01:44:09.000 All right.

01:44:09.000 We got too many superchats.

01:44:11.000 We got way too many.

01:44:13.000 Western and Canadian Commentary says, I get 12-hour suspension twice daily with no noticeable effect.

01:44:18.000 Thank you all for all your work.

01:44:21.000 It was TimCastIRL that inspired me to move to the country a month ago.

01:44:24.000 We have five veggies growing, and I get to clean up our chicken coop tomorrow.

01:44:28.000 Isn't it so much fun?

01:44:29.000 It is delightful.

01:44:30.000 When Kim, she's our chicken tender, goes out- Sorry, chicken tender made me laugh. 0.98

01:44:36.000 Well, the best thing was when my brother was running it.

01:44:41.000 His name is Chris Poole, so he was Chris P at Chicken Tender.

01:44:45.000 But it's really, you know, it's so much fun watching Chicken City when Kim goes in because they chase her around.

01:44:50.000 She's got food. 0.96

01:44:50.000 She loves them. 0.96

01:44:52.000 The chickens are like...

01:44:53.000 Food's coming!

01:44:54.000 Like, you have to stand by her.

01:44:55.000 She is their god.

01:44:58.000 It's like some kind of giant creature walking around with a bucket full of cheeseburgers, handing them out to people.

01:45:03.000 People are like, ooh, give me one, give me one!

01:45:05.000 That's so weird, right?

01:45:07.000 Cheeseburgers.

01:45:09.000 All right, AIMTE2020 says, Elsagate sounds very similar to Momo on YouTube Kids.

01:45:15.000 Momo would threaten kids into turning on the stove and other dangerous things around the house. 0.95

01:45:19.000 What?

01:45:20.000 That sounds like a horror movie.

01:45:21.000 Wow.

01:45:22.000 Yo, that's crazy.

01:45:23.000 Yeah, that was creepy.

01:45:27.000 John Galt says, Cat gone, Ian rejoins the conversation.

01:45:30.000 Oh, I had to dig him out from underneath that chair over there.

01:45:32.000 When he gets in a little hovel, he wants to play.

01:45:35.000 He got Sharpie nails, so I got to lift up the chair and kind of coax him out.

01:45:41.000 Michael Mammoth says, Tim, would you host my full length digital comics behind your paywall?

01:45:45.000 Michael Mammoth for a 25, at Michael Mammoth for a 25 page issue.

01:45:49.000 Let me write that down because the answer is yes, if your comic is good.

01:45:55.000 I am writing down your name.

01:45:57.000 And, um, we talked about a long time ago, the goal will ultimately be to have, like, everything.

01:46:01.000 I would love to do, like, weekly manga releases or graphic novel releases.

01:46:05.000 You can call them manga.

01:46:05.000 We're not Japanese.

01:46:06.000 But something like that.

01:46:07.000 Because I'm a big fan of Shonen Jump.

01:46:09.000 For, like, 10 years, I read every Wednesday, Naruto, Scanlations.

01:46:13.000 I wonder if George Alexopoulos would do, uh, exclusive Behind the Paywall stuff.

01:46:18.000 We'll reach out to him.

01:46:19.000 George Alexopoulos is my favorite artist.

01:46:22.000 He's so good.

01:46:23.000 It is the most brilliant stuff ever.

01:46:25.000 We have his paintings up.

01:46:27.000 Probably the best thing I've ever seen was when he drew the trade towers and it says society and democracy on it.

01:46:33.000 There's a trucker that says free speech flying into it.

01:46:36.000 With a Klan hood is amazing. 1.00

01:46:39.000 That one wasn't the Klan hood, but the one where he made the truckers with the giant truck seven Klan hoods on them. 0.79

01:46:43.000 He was mocking the New Yorker or something like that, how they like their style of comics.

01:46:47.000 It was just gprime85 on Twitter and Instagram.

01:46:50.000 You got to follow George.

01:46:51.000 He's brilliant.

01:46:52.000 He's a genius.

01:46:54.000 So, yes, Michael, we will.

01:46:56.000 I'll take a look.

01:46:58.000 All right.

01:47:00.000 Michael also says, oh, I'm sorry.

01:47:01.000 That was Michael.

01:47:01.000 Augusto says, 10 to 12,000 years ago, we rebelled against the Anunnaki ETs and they want to enslave us again.

01:47:08.000 Easier if we are weak and depopulated.

01:47:11.000 Yes.

01:47:12.000 I don't think so, but okay.

01:47:15.000 They did have flying machines though.

01:47:17.000 Yeah.

01:47:17.000 Didn't they want us to mine gold for them for their atmosphere because their atmosphere is elliptical.

01:47:22.000 And so they need to keep the planet warm using gold particles.

01:47:26.000 I see.

01:47:26.000 I have no idea.

01:47:28.000 I read the internet sometimes.

01:47:31.000 Dave says, I've never had a Twitter account.

01:47:32.000 Now I want to sign up so I can scream groomer into the void and have the host of bots that make up Twitter ban me.

01:47:38.000 Yep, that's about right.

01:47:41.000 All right.

01:47:43.000 We'll grab some more super jets.

01:47:46.000 What is this?

01:47:48.000 Christopher Marr says, I have an idea.

01:47:49.000 Let's print more money.

01:47:50.000 Well, DeSantis is even doing it too.

01:47:52.000 He announced he's going to give stimulus to people because of inflation.

01:47:54.000 I'm like, oh yeah, that's, that's going to work.

01:47:57.000 Okay.

01:47:58.000 This is why you got to vote for Trump, I guess.

01:48:01.000 And we'll see though.

01:48:01.000 It's an attorney.

01:48:02.000 It's until 2024.

01:48:04.000 But Trump saying he's going to fire everybody.

01:48:05.000 That's, that's, you know, that's great.

01:48:07.000 Craig Shirt says, we need the TimCast Speak Your Mind Tour to provide a safe place for people to speak.

01:48:13.000 We are planning on, for one, opening up our own venue, which would have smaller local events.

01:48:18.000 We would do like maybe one or two a month, TimCast IRL live Friday night, where it'll be at a venue, but it'll also still be live on YouTube and all that.

01:48:27.000 But we're also actually setting up some events.

01:48:29.000 We're looking at like Miami, Nashville, and Austin, I think.

01:48:32.000 To do the plan right now is we are going to do a Friday night IRL live which will be I think five hours long so excellent very hard work for all of the Timcast crew and then the speakers for the event actually just come in and join the podcast and then get up and leave like every hour so we would have like I think four or five guests We would sit here the whole time.

01:48:57.000 Granted, I think, honestly, I'd be the only one sitting here the entire time, because obviously we could have people come in if Lydia needed a break and people have to go to the bathroom and stuff like that. 1.00

01:49:05.000 Me, I would just sit there and, you know.

01:49:08.000 Oh, you got me the whole time.

01:49:09.000 Yeah, I think.

01:49:10.000 I'm trained for this.

01:49:11.000 The best part, though, is I'm thinking about how we're going to do the blocking for the table.

01:49:14.000 So, like, everyone will be sitting on one side of the table.

01:49:16.000 It'll be the weirdest thing ever.

01:49:17.000 Maybe levels.

01:49:18.000 Maybe we could have people above, above like a riser.

01:49:20.000 4D chess.

01:49:21.000 Or we just do a table that's like an octagon.

01:49:24.000 Oh, yeah, that could work.

01:49:25.000 Yeah.

01:49:26.000 And so people can see, you know, this big octagonal or something.

01:49:30.000 Oh, we could do it in the round.

01:49:31.000 You ever do theater in the round where the stage is in the middle and then people surround?

01:49:35.000 Problem is you will see some people's backs.

01:49:37.000 Yeah.

01:49:37.000 You see everybody else's fronts.

01:49:39.000 But we'll figure it out.

01:49:39.000 It'll be really, really cool.

01:49:41.000 And then we have a Q&A from the audience and stuff would be a whole lot of fun.

01:49:46.000 Whole lot of fun.

01:49:47.000 And we're looking at cities that have a lot of prominent individuals, you know, like Nashville and Austin.

01:49:52.000 It's kind of obvious who we'd reach out to if we did something like that and have them on the show.

01:49:55.000 It'd be really great.

01:49:57.000 Speak your mind tour.

01:49:59.000 We've talked about doing a tour where we actually book in like every major city.

01:50:03.000 The problem is not possible.

01:50:06.000 Just completely impossible to run a business while traveling.

01:50:10.000 And so I've had one company say, we will get you a private plane every Friday after your morning show to fly out to the city when the show is ready to go.

01:50:16.000 And I was like, Still really hard work.

01:50:20.000 But maybe.

01:50:20.000 I just, we don't, we don't have the ability to do that.

01:50:22.000 We have to send a deal with someone I don't want to do.

01:50:25.000 All right.

01:50:27.000 Stefan Bukov says, Drex had a great interview with a furry.

01:50:31.000 Turns out they dress up because the anonymity provided by costumes allows them to do the most heinous and debaucherous acts while dissociating themselves from those acts.

01:50:38.000 Gross.

01:50:39.000 Yeah, see, the thing is, I've actually talked to some furries.

01:50:43.000 And the point is, the most innocent version of it, as I've been told, is it's a personal identity escapism.

01:50:49.000 That you're something else, you're someone else, and you have an affinity for the costume or whatever.

01:50:54.000 And then I've heard that, that people do debaucherous things, but I don't... I've been told that's not, like, the core of it.

01:51:00.000 The core of it is more of an identity thing.

01:51:04.000 Okay.

01:51:06.000 Rel says, Trump stopped funding the World Health Organization by and reinstated funding.

01:51:10.000 CCP connection?

01:51:11.000 Yeah, I certainly think so.

01:51:13.000 Shane Man says, Hey Zuby, being from the UK, what's your favorite band from your homeland?

01:51:17.000 I can name so many great bands from the 60s, 70s from the UK.

01:51:20.000 Interested in hearing what you were raised on.

01:51:22.000 Thanks.

01:51:24.000 Man, I'm not that much of a band person.

01:51:26.000 I'm more of a hip hop and rap person.

01:51:28.000 So I don't know if I have a favorite British band to be totally honest.

01:51:35.000 British band.

01:51:36.000 Yeah, I don't really have an answer.

01:51:37.000 There's tons of them, it's just not really my main genre.

01:51:40.000 What about British hip-hop?

01:51:41.000 British hip-hop?

01:51:43.000 Is that called grime?

01:51:46.000 Grime is a sub-genre.

01:51:48.000 Okay.

01:51:48.000 Sub-genre of hip-hop, really.

01:51:51.000 I like a lot of British rappers.

01:51:52.000 I like Stormzy, JME, Skepta, Getz.

01:51:57.000 My friend Shouto is really dope.

01:52:02.000 Who else am I into?

01:52:05.000 Man, there's a lot.

01:52:06.000 Those are the ones that come to my head right off the top, but I feel like I'm missing out some major ones.

01:52:12.000 But there's a lot of dope British hip-hop and grime now.

01:52:15.000 Right on.

01:52:17.000 Alright, Evil Empire Cigar Society says, I have a cigar show interviewing brand owners in the industry with people like The Daily Wirecast and Crowder that enjoy them.

01:52:26.000 Would you consider doing some content with us?

01:52:28.000 Let's build that content arc.

01:52:30.000 I don't smoke!

01:52:31.000 So, perhaps?

01:52:32.000 I don't know what we would do.

01:52:35.000 Cigars are alright, you just puff on them for the taste.

01:52:37.000 Don't inhale.

01:52:39.000 Jay Everett says, Alex Jones is right.

01:52:40.000 Save Alex Jones.

01:52:42.000 Yeah, I think they're doing jury selection, they announced that today or something?

01:52:45.000 Oh boy.

01:52:46.000 Going to court?

01:52:46.000 Oh.

01:52:47.000 The gut is company?

01:52:49.000 Man.

01:52:52.000 Eraftus of Stett says, there is a phrase in my church, the wise man builds his house on the rock.

01:52:57.000 That's right.

01:52:57.000 You need to anchor yourself to something in order to be able to adapt.

01:53:01.000 Ah, very nice, very nice.

01:53:02.000 Correct.

01:53:03.000 Chris B. says, Ian's anti-Christian rhetoric is becoming very grating.

01:53:07.000 I saw that super chat, actually.

01:53:09.000 But the thing was, I'd never mentioned Christianity today.

01:53:12.000 I did say at one point, don't think that God is going to save you.

01:53:15.000 But if you think that means Christianity, then that's your echo chamber. 0.58

01:53:19.000 I just am talking about the monolith.

01:53:22.000 I think someone mentioned Christianity in response to that.

01:53:26.000 If we're talking about the faith that this country has had up until very recently, it is Christianity.

01:53:34.000 So that's what I assumed you were implying.

01:53:37.000 I'm talking about the world and people having a belief that something external will save them.

01:53:41.000 And I want to inspire people to save themselves.

01:53:45.000 All right.

01:53:46.000 GLA fonda says Zubi based brother-in-arms The decadent rot in the West has a spiritual component to

01:53:52.000 us is the transhumanist agenda known as the great reset a mass

01:53:56.000 Ritual sacrifice to save the earth or to serve a more fiendish master

01:54:00.000 Look I don't I don't know exactly why certain things are happening

01:54:09.000 That's a huge question.

01:54:12.000 I don't know.

01:54:13.000 The why is a confusing part.

01:54:16.000 But as I said, I think when you're dealing with actual evil, when you're dealing with genuine malice, if you are a Decent, non-malicious, non-evil person.

01:54:26.000 It can be really hard to understand the motive.

01:54:29.000 The same goes, that's why it's so hard.

01:54:31.000 You can't understand serial killers and stuff, right?

01:54:33.000 You're not meant to be able to understand it because you just don't even operate.

01:54:37.000 It was really like AOC faking being in handcuffs.

01:54:41.000 It's freaking weird.

01:54:42.000 Faking it.

01:54:43.000 Yeah.

01:54:43.000 Just to manipulate people.

01:54:44.000 Yeah, very weird, isn't it?

01:54:45.000 Yep.

01:54:46.000 And then later she was like, it's because it's the safest thing to do so you don't get charged with resisting.

01:54:49.000 It's like, lady, you're a sitting member of Congress at a sit-in being carried away to a VIP gathering area where you're gonna stand and fist pump with a bunch of other members of Congress.

01:54:58.000 And her friends did the same as well.

01:54:59.000 Exactly.

01:55:01.000 I could see, though, if she was flailing her arms around as she was walking like this, then if someone mimicked her and did it and got hurt, then that would be a problem.

01:55:08.000 She might be responsible for it.

01:55:09.000 Because people are going to watch her and be like, I want to be like her.

01:55:11.000 Flailing her arms around.

01:55:13.000 She's just walking and flopping her arms around.

01:55:14.000 Yeah, well, if she was like out, if her arms were out when she was under arrest, that might be a problem for someone that wasn't her.

01:55:18.000 Dude, come on.

01:55:19.000 She was just acting.

01:55:20.000 Yeah, she's just acting.

01:55:22.000 It's malicious evil.

01:55:23.000 It is nihilism and it's pure.

01:55:26.000 It's millennial nihilism, too.

01:55:27.000 It's this, you know, nothing matters but power.

01:55:30.000 David Graeber said it before he passed, said, the left has embraced the fascistic tenet, there is no truth but power.

01:55:37.000 And that's exactly what they've been following, what they've been pursuing.

01:55:39.000 Back to the roots!

01:55:41.000 The wild animals!

01:55:43.000 And then people who get power just cause everyone to suffer and extract until finally they can't extract anything else.

01:55:49.000 I was thinking today, like, a government can just take your company, turn it to zero, and seize everything if they want through force.

01:55:54.000 Like, what is there other than force?

01:55:56.000 Not even force, they can literally just, like, they can just... Dissolve it.

01:56:00.000 Dissolve your filing, yeah.

01:56:02.000 But then if you're like, well, I'm still gonna sell my goods, they'll send Feds or whatever to the house and be like, no, you're gonna come with us.

01:56:09.000 I mean, I guess there is some element of truth to the fact that everything in the world... I mean, one could argue that everything in the world that exists is ultimately, at the end point, backed up by violence or the threat of it.

01:56:24.000 Right.

01:56:25.000 We got a good one here.

01:56:25.000 Seems like it.

01:56:26.000 Douglas Todd says, brain implants will become necessary due to competition.

01:56:30.000 How can someone without the implants compete with those that have them?

01:56:33.000 Exactly.

01:56:34.000 Tattoos.

01:56:35.000 You can have non-invasive graphene tattoos and things like that.

01:56:37.000 Imagine not having a cell phone.

01:56:39.000 How would you get a job?

01:56:40.000 They'll be like, you wanna work here?

01:56:41.000 Yes.

01:56:42.000 What's your phone number?

01:56:42.000 I don't have one.

01:56:43.000 Well, how do I get in touch with you?

01:56:44.000 Send me a letter.

01:56:45.000 I'll be like, okay, no, that's not gonna happen.

01:56:47.000 It's like, okay, sure, I'll send you a letter.

01:56:49.000 That guy's got a cell phone.

01:56:50.000 I'll text him instead.

01:56:51.000 Okay, I only have a landline phone.

01:56:53.000 I don't have a cell phone, so you can call me.

01:56:55.000 Okay, well, what if there's an emergency and we need to get in touch with you for some reason?

01:56:58.000 Oh, I don't know.

01:56:59.000 Okay, well, if I hire that guy, he's got a cell phone, and if a key goes missing or something, I can just text him.

01:57:03.000 Yeah, I'm not gonna hire the guy without a cell phone.

01:57:06.000 Someone's gonna have a brain implant, and they're gonna be like, oh, if anything happens, just interface with me and I'll give you all the info.

01:57:11.000 Well, I say tattooed because eventually we'll be having like removable tattoos on the back of our neck that can do the same thing the implant can do, so you won't need invasive stuff.

01:57:19.000 But how is it a tattoo?

01:57:20.000 Graphene, electromagnetic, we'll like, I think you just check them out, graphene tattoos.

01:57:23.000 Yeah, it's like a sticker.

01:57:25.000 They call it a tattoo, but you can remove it.

01:57:26.000 The Amish make more and more sense to me, like, every passing week.

01:57:30.000 I used to think they were kind of weird, now I'm like, I said buttons were too far.

01:57:35.000 I'm like, they're onto something there.

01:57:37.000 Yep.

01:57:37.000 Yeah.

01:57:38.000 Here we go.

01:57:38.000 A graphing tattoo to continuously monitor your brainwaves.

01:57:41.000 But people don't understand that Amish don't really live completely just like without... I know it's not literally nothing. 1.00

01:57:49.000 There's like, um, if you go along the East coast, there's like a supermarket run by the Amish and there's like ice cream machines and grills, like, but they're dressed like, you know, Amish people and they make food and you eat it.

01:58:02.000 I assume there's different degrees.

01:58:03.000 There's varying degrees, just like they're over there.

01:58:05.000 I think we just got to ask someone who's Amish to like, Hey, explain that.

01:58:09.000 Cause I remember in Chicago is a farmer's market and like an, a truck said like Amish farms pulls up and they're like Amish people driving in the car, pulling up to sell their food or whatever. 0.80

01:58:17.000 They'll do it if it involves making money.

01:58:19.000 Yeah, I think people completely exaggerate a lot of what Amish people do.

01:58:25.000 But I do think it's, for the most part, probably true.

01:58:27.000 They're chillin', minding their own business.

01:58:30.000 Honey Badgers has had a debate with a friend about your Civil War theory, and he pointed out states suing another state, IDK, the court working on state courts.

01:58:37.000 And my issue is, what if the feds say, we're not getting involved?

01:58:40.000 So the scenario I presented is, Colorado has no restriction on abortion, Texas bans abortion.

01:58:46.000 Man and woman have kid, or get pregnant. 0.72

01:58:48.000 At eight months, the woman says, you know what, I don't want the kid, I'm gonna kill it. 0.81

01:58:51.000 Flees to Colorado.

01:58:52.000 The husband says, no, no, she's taken my son.

01:58:54.000 He's viable. 1.00

01:58:55.000 She's going to kill him. 1.00

01:58:56.000 Colorado has no limit. 0.98

01:58:58.000 Federal government says, we got nothing to do with this.

01:59:00.000 What happens?

01:59:01.000 People need to stop being demons. 0.88

01:59:04.000 Like stop being demonic.

01:59:05.000 Like if you're eight months pregnant and you've got a man, like, what are you doing? 0.84

01:59:09.000 Sure.

01:59:10.000 But like, we shouldn't be having, needing to have these conversations. 0.99

01:59:13.000 The scenario there is, does the dad just say, guess she'll kill my kid.

01:59:17.000 Or does he go, come on guys, round up the gang and we're getting in the truck and going to save my kid.

01:59:22.000 I think the latter is quite likely.

01:59:24.000 Or what if Texas then says we no longer allow interstate commerce with Colorado because of the kidnapping of one of our residents for execution or something?

01:59:33.000 I don't know, man.

01:59:35.000 When you, let's say, stop being demons, I think of it as like it's impossible to go against the avalanche.

01:59:40.000 I mean, it's not impossible, it's very hard.

01:59:42.000 So what do you propose to... I think there's too much blackmailing going on, man.

01:59:46.000 Honestly.

01:59:47.000 I don't think it's healthy.

01:59:49.000 When did you start working out?

01:59:51.000 When I was 15.

01:59:53.000 Yeah.

01:59:54.000 No, man, I... Sorry, I feel like there was some... What was it you said just before that?

01:59:59.000 How to give people hope.

02:00:00.000 How to get them... Because telling them to stop being black felt different than giving them the white pill. 0.97

02:00:04.000 Yeah, of course, man. 0.93

02:00:05.000 No, I mean, all I push is optimism, man.

02:00:07.000 Why do I do what I do online and, you know, with my books and podcasts and everything?

02:00:12.000 I mean...

02:00:13.000 I think that we need to be careful when we're being realistic.

02:00:20.000 I'm not saying stick your head in the sand and act like there's nothing wrong.

02:00:24.000 I talk about plenty of things that are wrong in the world and so on, but I think that these things can become self-fulfilling prophecies.

02:00:30.000 I think if you think that, oh my gosh, whoever you think are the evil elites or globalists or people who want to just run things and enslave humanity, I think if the narrative is pushed that this is just inevitable and it's going to happen and it's hopeless and there's nothing you can do about it, I think it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy because demoralization is incredibly powerful.

02:00:50.000 I mean, if you want to completely crush an enemy, then you demoralize them to the point where they don't even fight because they don't think that they can even win.

02:00:58.000 Or they join you.

02:00:59.000 Or they join you, exactly.

02:01:00.000 Let's grab one more super chat from TechRoo.

02:01:02.000 He says, come on man, furry hate again?

02:01:04.000 Libertarian and conservative furries think you're awesome.

02:01:07.000 We smash the like button and even subscribe with cash money.

02:01:10.000 There are weirdos in every genre.

02:01:11.000 I'll go on the show.

02:01:13.000 I mean, no, I agree with that.

02:01:14.000 I've been saying that because we've had a bunch of people who were like, dude, I literally don't care what people do when they're engaging in their own personal, you know, life choices or styles or whatever.

02:01:24.000 I learned this as a lesson when I was a kid, and I told the story before that when we started skating, the cool thing was to wear skin-tight jeans.

02:01:31.000 The older guys in their 20s wore really big baggy jeans, and they made fun of us.

02:01:36.000 And we laughed at them for being old and out of touch.

02:01:39.000 Then when I got older, the younger kids started wearing dickies that went down to their ankles, like floods. 1.00

02:01:44.000 And then all the people that were my age started making fun of them, being like, look at those idiots wearing flooded pants. 0.98

02:01:49.000 And I was like, bro, you're saying exactly what that dude said about you for wearing tight jeans. 1.00

02:01:53.000 And he was like, well, yeah, I know, but tight jeans are cool and those are dumb. 1.00

02:01:56.000 And I'm like, no, dude, you're dumb. 0.99

02:01:58.000 And then like, I just started wearing regular jeans. 1.00

02:02:00.000 Cause I'm like, everybody just do whatever you want, man.

02:02:03.000 Like just don't hit people, you know?

02:02:05.000 Yeah.

02:02:06.000 All right, man.

02:03:21.000 Wanted to just get a 96-foot billboard of my Roberto Jr., you did good, man.

02:03:26.000 I'm proud of you, buddy.

02:03:28.000 Well, speaking of the black pill and the white pill and the Zuby pill, I do have to say that Zuby's Twitter is actually an excellent source of positivity.

02:03:35.000 One of the only ones that I have found to be consistently uplifting on Twitter.

02:03:39.000 So I feel like he's single handedly making the platform into something good, which is very encouraging to see.

02:03:45.000 So thank you for doing that.
