On today's show, we discuss the GameStop rebellion, the Federal Reserve intervening in the stock market, and the latest on the "Don't Buy Silver" post on Reddit. We also discuss the latest in the China/ Taiwan situation, and much, much more!
00:00:31.000While I'll be the first to admit most of what I do is political commentary, cultural commentary, and news commentary, etc.
00:00:37.000No, I actually do the digging, and this morning when I wake up, I go and I look at all of these different news stories claiming that Reddit is pumping silver.
00:00:47.000That they've decided GameStop is out, no one cares anymore, and everybody should go buy silver.
00:01:45.000You see, the game is rigged, my friends.
00:01:47.000It's not just the media, but apparently the NSCC, which is the principal clearinghouse for stocks, told Robinhood, the trading app, that they had to deposit $3 billion.
00:02:18.000Because the initial story that I had said Federal Regulator Intervenes, and turns out NSCC is actually a private entity, a subsidiary of the DTCC, and as Ian put it when we were discussing this, like trying to figure out what the right title would be, he said it's convoluted on purpose.
00:02:34.000So we've got a bunch of crazy news today.
00:02:35.000It's not just about what's going on with the GameStop rebellion, because I do think that's important, but we also have unrest in Rochester after cops pepper sprayed a nine-year-old girl.
00:02:44.000We've got the SWAT team raiding the Red Lion Hotel because left-wing activists occupied it.
00:02:50.000We've got China threatening war over Taiwanese independence.
00:03:03.000It's like the Federal Express, which I don't know if they really wanted you to think it was actually a federal company, but of course the Federal Reserve, also not a federal company, an arm of the Bank of International Settlements, a Swiss bank.
00:03:14.000One of many central banks throughout the world, like the Bank of England and the Bank of Australia, that are not governed by their government.
00:03:31.000Because I was reading an old article talking about how it was effectively supposed to be handling like some kind of regulatory body like work.
00:04:02.000Also, when you look at silver and when you type it into Google, the first articles that come up, first Google puts up a big memo, it says, silver prices surged to 8-year high, but the first article is by the Wall Street Journal that says silver prices jump in GameStop-like frenzy.
00:05:09.000You open the bag, you put it in a pot, you mix it with some water, it's fantastic.
00:05:12.000And one of the reasons we're doing a shout-out for SafeAndReadyMeals.com is because, uh, for those of you that don't live on the East Coast, we're currently being slammed by a blizzard.
00:05:20.000And I went out because I had to go run some errands.
00:05:54.000We have some because sometimes it snows so bad that it's hard to get to the store, and we're like, well, let's see what we got in the pantry.
00:06:01.000Turns out we ran out of bacon and other food, and we were going to go to the store, and then we didn't, and then we should have.
00:06:06.000I don't know if you guys have ever seen that viral video where the guy's screaming, you got to get the milk, bread, and eggs, and he's running to his car because they said snow.
00:06:13.000Listen, sometimes it snows, sometimes it rains, and it makes it hard to go out and buy stuff.
00:06:16.000So safeandreadymeals.com, special thanks.
00:06:19.000You can pick up your emergency food supply.
00:06:21.000It's 20 or so percent off when you go check it out.
00:08:33.000It was probably not the healthiest thing in the world.
00:08:35.000Okay, anyway, go to TimCast.com, become a member and check out... We actually have a bonus episode we did with Eliza Blue talking about a bunch of things YouTube will ban us for talking about.
00:08:44.000And it was a pretty serious conversation.
00:08:46.000So again, TimBass.com, you can become a member, 10 bucks a month, and you get access to all this special bonus content, and we're gonna be producing more as things ramp up.
00:08:53.000My friends, seriously, we have been working, like, way over time.
00:08:57.000We're bringing in more people to help because... Too many members!
00:09:06.000Seriously, we got such a massive influx of members, it overloaded the system.
00:09:09.000We're trying to get member support to help everybody who's having problems, and we're getting there.
00:09:12.000But if you want to make sure that when we do get banned, we'll still exist in some form, you can go to TimCast.com, sign up.
00:09:18.000Now, that was probably the longest opening segment we've ever done, but look, I gotta be honest, I really wanted to talk about the Blizzard.
00:09:24.000I still want to talk about deep-frying food.
00:09:57.000I looked up Utah's government website explaining that we really are still in an ice age.
00:10:03.000So that last 12,800 years ago we were peppered by comets and the glaciers melted, but we're still in like the interglacial part of the ice age where it's receding.
00:10:10.000So this warming is actually probably kind of normal and we're just headed out of the ice age.
00:10:15.000You sound like a climate change denier.
00:10:17.000Yeah, check out Ice Age Utah and you can read all about it.
00:10:40.000Reddit's epic Silver squeeze is only helping Wall Street.
00:10:44.000This is the most brazen and insane fake news I have ever seen.
00:10:50.000I apologize to those of you who have watched the rest of my content throughout the day because this is the main thing I've been harping on in every single video.
00:11:04.000Let me show you this post right here from WallStreetBets.
00:11:08.000Someone's watching Bloomberg, and you can see it says this woman, Emma Chandra of Bloomberg News, and then underneath, retail traders lose interest in GameStop.
00:11:21.000The number one post right now, I believe it's the number one post on WallStreetBets, why you definitely should not, under any circumstances, fall for the silver scams.
00:11:29.000You are being played by the most powerful elite on the planet.
00:11:34.000Think about what they say in that New York Post article.
00:11:36.000Reddit's epic silver squeeze is only helping Wall Street.
00:12:07.000So what we're seeing now is, I believe this is more likely to be some kind of standalone complex where all these people in media have connections, they get fake stories seeded, and then dumb journalists with malicious journalists who are trying to make a pretty penny pump out this story to divert everyone's attention away from GameStop.
00:12:25.000A lot of the people who are investing are probably just someone who saw the news.
00:12:28.000There's now 8 million users on rslashwallstreet, that's 8 million.
00:12:33.000A good portion of them probably just tuned in as a get-rich-quick scheme.
00:12:36.000Not all of them, not most, but just a lot, right?
00:12:39.000I think what we're seeing is that these special interests, these elites, are trying to convince people, go buy Dogecoin, go buy silver, but we're seeing something else more nefarious than ever.
00:12:48.000We are seeing exactly why Wall Street Bets is doing what they're doing.
00:12:52.000We are seeing the crony machine in play.
00:12:56.000They are lying to you to get you to buy silver so they can pump the price of silver up.
00:13:02.000Then all of their friends will sell out when silver peaks leave you holding an empty bag.
00:13:08.000They do it all the time and they're doing it in our face right now.
00:13:12.000Now it's not not just the New York Post there it's also CNBC that has this headline silver jumps 8% touches ... eight-year-high as reddit traders try their squeeze play ... with the metal and when you look at the media coverage it ... definitely kind of changed it was always sinister it was ... always extremely negative towards redditors towards.
00:13:32.000The plebs are peasants who are actually gaining some ... financial wisdom and outsmarting the Wall Street ... guys it was always negative towards them because they're ... not part of the in-club they're not part of the ... establishment but but we have to understand it's always ... coming from the same kind of point of view it's always ... coming from the same kind of perspective Washington Post ... wrote an opinion piece about the hedge funds being the good ... guys we have MSNBC literally.
00:13:57.000Had an anchor on there talking about how the reddit traders are going to be self-harming themselves like Instagram women who are depressed that they're going to start cutting themselves because they're wasting their time.
00:14:35.000Look at the disinformation propaganda campaign used against individuals, the plebs, who are finally playing in the stock market by the rules of the hedge funds.
00:14:44.000And the hedge funds and establishment are saying, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:14:46.000We can only win this game, not you, when they're playing by the rules fairly.
00:15:12.000Ben Bernanke is also involved in Citadel.
00:15:15.000I mean, you could name the list of government officials that just go from one day public representatives of you to selling you out the next day, and it's absolutely sickening what's going on here.
00:15:35.000This is a great sign, because look how desperate they're becoming, that they're literally going at their straws here, being like, silver, silver!
00:15:43.000I even made a video two weeks ago saying, hey, I even interviewed someone in the silver business, and I was like, I personally like silver as an alternative to the dollar.
00:15:51.000Not financial advice, just my own personal opinion.
00:15:55.000But even now, when you look at the top Reddit post and you look at what people are saying, they're saying, wait, wait, wait, there is no short on silver.
00:16:02.000A lot of hedge funds do own silver as well, and they make good points there that really are worth considering.
00:16:25.000The price of silver skyrockets, you buy in when silver is at $30, and then you're all excited, and then the hedge funds who are seeking to offset their losses sell out huge portions of silver at a premium from your money.
00:16:39.000Then when silver tanks, the regular people panic, not understanding the market, losing all of that
00:16:44.000money. And then Wall Street absorbs it all, buys back the silver they gave out in the first place
00:16:49.000and makes that money. They make money on top and they get the silver back at the same time.
00:16:53.000That's the game. That's the manipulation. So how high do you think they'll pump it? I don't know.
00:16:59.000Some people are posting like, it's going to hit 500.
00:18:09.000I heard a lot of people saying they're trying to get people to buy SLV and not physical silver.
00:18:16.000But if everyone tried buying physical silver, it would seriously squeeze out all of the actual physical bullion stores and everything, which could actually have a serious impact because apparently the banks wouldn't be able to cover if people actually wanted to.
00:18:30.000Look, I'm not going to pretend to be a stock guy.
00:18:36.000So don't get advice from me on what to do with stock.
00:18:39.000For me, this is about the overlap between the Wall Street Bets Redditors and what they're actually saying, and me being a critic of the media and trying to expose them and their manipulation, and now seeing how you got a bunch of the little... It's the little guy.
00:18:52.000This dude, Deep Effing Value, who's now become a multi-millionaire off of his bets, he's just some dad in the Massachusetts area.
00:19:00.000He is not the machine, but now he's in the top .1% now?
00:19:05.000Net worth is like 30-something million dollars.
00:19:08.000Dude, there are CEOs who don't make that much money in a year, and he's made it in six months!
00:20:13.000What I'm saying is, Bernie was standing outside that mansion, the clubhouse, with all the elites and all the wealthy, you know, people, and he was outside.
00:20:22.000And he was like, oh, I want to be inside there with the millionaires and the billionaires.
00:20:25.000Oh, the millionaires and the billionaires are awful!
00:20:34.000And now he stops saying the millionaires, because they let him in the club.
00:20:38.000This dude, deep effing value on Wall Street bets, is not part of the club, and so now he somehow found his way inside this building, and they're pissed off.
00:20:45.000They're looking over, they're all wearing their fancy suits, pinkies out with their hoo hoo hoo, and their monocles, and they see this dude with a red bandana on, who bought a bunch of GameStop stock, and it reminds me of like, I played a poker game once, and I literally had no idea what I was doing, because this was when I was like 18, And I kept betting more, and I was holding 2-7 offsuit.
00:21:07.000And I ended up winning, because the last dude folded, and he was really angry, and then I showed what I had, and he started screaming and yelling, Why you shouldn't have folded?
00:21:22.000And so now you have these people who are in the club, Who have sold their souls, who have dropped to their knees and given everything to be in that club, and this dude walks in with this bandana on and he's like, I don't know, I just bought a stock that was probably not supposed to go up and I screwed the hedge funds over.
00:21:36.000It's like that Eddie Murphy movie from the 80s.
00:22:39.000But he's also, he's a crypto guy, he's a Bitcoin guy, and I wonder if his perspective on it is, what they're doing with the hedge funds won't break the system, it'll break the hedge funds, and crypto will break the system.
00:22:51.000So that's why he's, you know, telling everybody, you gotta go after crypto, short the whole, you know, short squeeze the whole system.
00:22:56.000But I will say, You know, maybe Max is right.
00:22:59.000Far be it from me to criticize that guy.
00:23:01.000For those that aren't familiar, Max Keiser, he's been in the game for longer than I've been alive.
00:23:06.000And there was a funny video he posted from like 1987 of him ragging on yuppies, and I'm like, dude, I was like one.
00:23:15.000What I can say is, the Redditors are saying, here's our mission.
00:23:19.000And so what we're seeing now with all of this, it's...
00:23:22.000This is very similar to what happens with any semi-decentralized mass movement.
00:23:26.000We saw it with Occupy Wall Street, the first one.
00:23:28.000A lot of people were like, yo, we're mad at the banks, and then all of a sudden a bunch of people came up and started screaming about unrelated issues.
00:23:34.000I remember I was down at Occupy Wall Street, and they were having a meeting over what their main demand should be.
00:23:39.000Well, everybody was there because the big bank bailouts and the gambling they did that destroyed the market, destroyed everyone's livelihood.
00:23:46.000And I remember one day, while they're having this meeting with like a ton of people, some guy, just like old white dude, randomly stood up and screamed, What is wrong with you people?! !
00:25:17.000You do see a lot of obfuscation by the mainstream media.
00:25:19.000But it's also a bunch of people being like, hey, and a bunch of noise.
00:25:22.000So it's very hard to kind of organize that into one big vocal kind of representation here.
00:25:28.000So it could be just disorganized chaos that happened organically, or it could be pushed on and spurred on by some other elites who, of course, are benefiting off of people being fractured and divided and conquered.
00:25:45.000Popeyes with their attendees for all campaign with literally providing promo codes for everyone based off the stocks of the Redditors.
00:25:58.000Obviously going into the popular will, obviously tuning into this kind of new movement and trying to of course profit off of it by selling probably most likely GMO chicken.
00:26:58.000Because regular people will see this and not know it is right.
00:27:01.000If we get more corporate marketing to embrace the idea that there's money to be made from people who are excited and happy about this, then they're going to get more people rallying and coming in and investing those stocks.
00:27:13.000So like if people signed up on TimCast.com with the special promo code... There's no special promo code.
00:28:07.000If you're trying to figure out what's really going on and what you should support, if the media is saying it, assume the opposite.
00:28:13.000You guys ever see the episode of Seinfeld where George decides, he's such a failure, just one day decides, I'll do literally the opposite of whatever I do and then everything works out for him?
00:29:02.000They're getting a lot of government contracts as well.
00:29:05.000There are still remnants of good old capitalism alive and well today in this country.
00:29:10.000That people who work hard and provide a good service will find themselves doing well and expanding their business and having a large platform.
00:29:45.000Right now we have this interesting nonpartisan mass effort where everyone can see the media's lying.
00:29:51.000But listen, capitalists, you know, like people who are not into socialism, look at what's happening with the corruption and the command economy, how these elites can control socialism for me, but not for the essentially.
00:30:03.000They say, see that's socialism, when the powerful elites steal the resource and keep it for themselves.
00:30:08.000Socialists are saying, that's capitalism!
00:30:11.000That through their monopolistic power, they collude and just stop poor people from being able to get access to any of the resources.
00:30:18.000And I'm just like, yo, that's just corruption.
00:30:20.000Laissez-faire capitalism and capitalism can be utopian when we believe in this beautiful world of free trade.
00:30:32.000You need some social programs, but you gotta have a good system that can weed out failing programs and improve them, and you need market competition and the ability of individuals to work and trade as they see fit.
00:30:43.000Right now, it's the wrong conversation, because we should be all in agreement.
00:30:47.000Whatever you want to call it, there's a group of extremely powerful elites who are stripping away the resources and value from working class people.
00:32:47.000Elon Musk investigated for hiring non-U.S.
00:32:51.000citizens, which is a little bit mind-boggling, but I think in the Justice Department you have a mandatory thing that you need to hire non-U.S.
00:34:17.000But then I wondered, how is it that he won?
00:34:19.000Like certainly the establishment elites who manipulate media and manipulate the markets could have wrangled up enough effort to, to win.
00:34:27.000And I'm not talking about fraud or cheating.
00:34:28.000I'm talking about, you know, mail-in voting systems, about changing laws, about, you know, um, Running stories like what they're doing right now about silver.
00:34:49.000And so then I started to think, maybe the establishment elites, who normally have an airtight control over the media and the narrative and the system, are slipping.
00:34:59.000Now you look at what's going on with GameStop, the GameStop stocks, and it's like they're losing their grip.
00:35:04.000The hedge funds are bleeding out cash.
00:35:06.000Now you look at how the media responded with this, what looks to be a coordinated smear campaign to trick regular Americans into buying up this SLV, losing money.
00:36:03.000to special operations talking about me more fair that was released by Edward Snowden I have to double check but there's this is something that of course government agencies see as a massive threat and I think that I think the memes I mean they're they're viral right now I'm tweeting and I'm instagramming a whole bunch of them all the time because Just in that one simple image, in that simple representation, you're able to get across ideas so much more effectively than any video, than any photo, than any article, than any other kind of media form.
00:36:34.000And it's really its own form and the shares and the clicks and the way that this spreads is just exactly how this whole Reddit movement started.
00:36:43.000And exactly how it has a momentum and has an energy.
00:36:47.000And when you look at even, you know, the Epstein situation, no one even knew about it until the memes started coming out, and that hashtag started coming out.
00:36:54.000So this is key and essential, and looking at the memes now, things are looking in favor of the Redditors.
00:37:09.000He joined Twitter and started cheering... No, you said Twitter.
00:37:11.000Okay, and now he's cheering on the Redditors and GameStyle, saying, good, kick it to Wall Street, you know, take them for what they're worth.
00:38:06.000I was going to say something kind of offensive, you know, that term off the Native American The whole phrase off the reservation is a very racist phrase I've come to learn.
00:39:33.000So we have to understand that this is aggressive language that we're seeing towards poor people playing the market and outsmarting the people who used to play the market, the hedge funds.
00:39:43.000This reminds me of Occupy Wall Street.
00:39:45.000Because at Occupy Wall Street, the banks began to rupture.
00:40:15.000And it was literally overreaction by the state.
00:40:17.000We're seeing another overreaction by the authorities, by the establishment right now as we're speaking with this absurdity that some people are calling news.
00:41:48.000He was actually very nice, but he was lost, so I was literally telling him where to go into a secret VIP room that he accidentally took me into.
00:41:56.000Because security goes like, oh, he's clearly with him.
00:41:58.000And then that's when he brought me to Ben Bernanke, another individual who, by the way, is also a senior advisor at Citadel, which people should know, and is also the former chairman of the U.S.
00:43:01.000Because I did the accreditation, I had the credentials, they let me into the Council on Foreign Relations and they had press conferences and I stood up, asked my question like everyone else, but the difference was I wasn't kissing butt, I wasn't throwing softballs, I went right for the gullet verbally with hardcore, legitimate, reasonable questions.
00:43:17.000That should have been asked about corruption and all these horrible things that these people do in secret.
00:43:21.000That was finally exposed with this questioning.
00:43:49.000Eric Schmidt is the former chairman of Alphabet, the former head of Google, who also is working with the government, especially the Pentagon, on their technological advancements of the military.
00:44:00.000Now that you've mentioned Eric Schmidt is formerly the head of Google, if you were wondering why we might get banned in the future, it's because this guy's got us sitting right here.
00:44:08.000Well, my channel was kicked out of the partner program, I think very unfairly.
00:44:36.000Think tanks that were organizing the term fake news because the term fake news kind of came out of nowhere and it was galvanized as a way pushed by Hillary Clinton to go against Donald Trump to go against independent media.
00:44:49.000And it all started, according to a lot of investigative journalism, from a lot of the groups that were financed directly by him and Google.
00:44:56.000So I went up to him and I was like, hey, Eric Schmidt, let's talk about you working with Hillary Clinton on her campaign.
00:45:02.000Let's talk about you donating to her and you helping her create some of the biggest buzzwords that the media is using right now and weaponizing right now to destroy free speech.
00:45:11.000And then he looked you in the eyes and said, listen, you're your little pissant.
00:45:13.000I'm going to strip your YouTube channel from the partner program.
00:45:23.000You're going to get my YouTube video demonetized.
00:45:26.000And obviously I knew that, you know, but that's not the first time we got him.
00:45:30.000We also got him at another Bilderberg in Switzerland.
00:45:32.000This is all, of course, as he's going to the Bilderberg group meeting, which the mainstream media by and large chooses not to report on, even though it's 150 of the most influential people come together in secret.
00:45:46.000There's Bilderberg, Davos, and the Council on Foreign Relations.
00:45:49.000There's also the Trilateral Commission, and there's groups within groups within groups, and affiliations within all these different groups, and I could talk about this for hours.
00:45:56.000But one last thing before we segue, I kind of really wanted to bring up some of the amazing positive stories.
00:46:02.000We should focus on some of those here.
00:46:03.000And those are of individuals who enriched themselves through this whole GameStop saga, and they're doing incredible things.
00:46:10.000The New York Post has an article right now that is titled, College Student Donates GameStop Gains to Buy Video Games for Sick Kids.
00:46:17.000And there's a large number of these individuals actually going out of their way, taking profit, and doing really amazing things that are helping people.
00:46:32.000The CEO of Melvin Capital is still moving forward with literally destroying and bulldozing a house next to his so he could build a tennis court.
00:46:52.000There was another post on Reddit that said, this is for my father.
00:46:57.000That was absolutely a tearjerker, that talked about a lot of the bigger things, a lot of the bigger reasons, a lot of the motive behind this, which is absolutely important to know.
00:47:07.000The story was that his dad's construction company, I believe, construction, was destroyed by the housing market crisis caused by these big banks, and that since then he's become like basically a destitute alcoholic who's lost the will to live.
00:47:20.000And so he's like, this is for you dad, this is, you know, I love that.
00:47:24.000The sun has come back for vengeance against those but ...
00:47:27.000this is important a lot of these reddit kids saw their ...

00:48:00.000going to be cutting themselves and and and.
00:49:41.000And then one day, all these robots are tending to the human crop, and then a bunch of humans wake up.
00:49:46.000And they can see what's going on around them.
00:49:49.000And if the machine doesn't get a hold of things, those people are gonna get real angry, and they're gonna rise up.
00:49:54.000So we see this massive security effort in DC.
00:49:56.000Now we see the next and most interesting iteration in the desperation of the state because they're really scared about what happens when people realize not only is the game rigged, but we are stealing everything from you and your family and we're laughing the whole way down.
00:50:11.000A new gun bill would require public registry of all weapons.
00:50:35.000That you want to bring up specifically?
00:50:36.000I want to bring up more about that security theater you were bringing up because there's a CNN legal analyst named Elliot Williams who tweeted, quote, seems like a good day for a reminder that in any other year hundreds of giddy children from across Washington DC would be sledding at the Capitol building all day long.
00:50:54.000They can't because the grounds are closed to the public following a domestic terrorist attack.
00:50:59.000And then, I mean, just the hyperbolic, just the fear-mongering, just the nonsense there.
00:51:04.000And I think Michael Tracy had a response that is worth noting here and commenting on.
00:51:08.000And he said, or alternatively, the children can't sled on the hill because a security theater panic has been ginned up and virtually no one in a position of influence has bothered even questioning it.
00:51:26.000I'll tell you, it's that the media right now, their lies are so obvious.
00:51:31.000Luke, you were telling me about the Killdozer.
00:51:33.000Yes, I watched a documentary about the Killdozer and my goodness gracious.
00:51:40.000Give us the gist of the Killdozer story.
00:51:42.000It was an individual who felt wronged by city council and he decided to take out his feelings of being mistreated by the government by literally building huge slabs of steel surrounding a giant bulldozer which he put in a 50 caliber Firearm that was shooting out of and other rifles out of through little ports and went on a rampage in a small town Literally going after anyone who thought he was wrong.
00:52:39.000They know we can now see them all working the machines behind the scenes going, uh-oh, what do we do now?
00:52:45.000If you have one person who feels wronged by the government in that way, and this one person goes nuts and builds a killdozer, I mean, this is freaky stuff.
00:53:28.000The crazy thing about it is that there are a lot of people right now who have a bunch of guns.
00:53:31.000They would want you to pay fees, get liability insurance.
00:53:35.000They would want you to register each and every weapon.
00:53:38.000Mandatory psych evaluations, a national gun owner license, gun insurance for everything, as well as a publicly accessible database, and they want to ban 50 BMGs.
00:53:57.000This is terrifying because you know, there's going to be a lot of individuals who are not going to register their firearms and this house resolution makes it so you have to or you face penalties and fines that could land you in jail for a year to 40 years.
00:54:43.000Now, my friends, a couple years ago, I talked about, I was like, oh, maybe you have liability insurance or, you know, a license.
00:54:50.000And someone responded to me, that's great, it's a really good idea, Tim.
00:54:53.000I'm totally in favor of getting you insurance, liability insurance for your speech, and you have to get a license to be able to speak publicly.
00:55:00.000And then I was like, wait, wait, no, no, I don't want that.
00:55:36.000More importantly, I don't think it will pass because you're going to have some, you know, more moderate Democrats, especially like, I can't see Bernie Sanders agreeing with this.
00:55:45.000Well, there are some pro-gun Democrats out there, but we also have to remember there has been a huge surge of new gun owners.
00:55:53.000Yeah, a lot of them from cities a lot of them from Democratic areas that are understanding that hey, you know, maybe I shouldn't wait 15 20 30 minutes for a police to respond.
00:56:03.000Maybe it'll be better if I have something that I could defend myself with just like all the celebrities and politicians have you know, they have all these security guards.
00:56:11.000They have all these people always protecting them with firearms and and with this, you know law.
00:56:17.000With this resolution that they're trying to get past, H.R.
00:56:20.000127, this is going to lead to massive amount of harm.
00:56:23.000This is going to lead to a massive amount of problems.
00:56:27.000That's only going to make the situation that much worse.
00:56:29.000It would ban gun ownership for people under 21.
00:57:25.000If you invite someone to your house, the issue is, in many places, in like, the vast majority of places, the government tells you you can't bear arms.
00:57:36.000I was at the post office the other day, and there was a sign in the door saying it is a violation of federal law to have a firearm inside, you know, a post office or whatever.
00:58:04.000So while I look at this and I'm thinking it won't pass, when you look at what, you know, Luke and other people are calling security theater, you look at the rage people have and the manipulation tactics are starting to fail.
00:58:15.000They are getting scared to the point where I think they'll try and ram this through.
00:58:26.000Reality check are not going to register their weapons, and if you try and pass a stupid bill like that, you're going to make a large segment of the American people criminals, and then that will lead to civil unrest at a level we haven't seen yet, so don't do it.
00:58:38.000Well, normally I'd say I wouldn't necessarily agree, because I think the American people typically comply.
00:58:43.000But I read a story about red flag laws.
00:58:46.000There was this old guy, and it was apparently like, I don't know, some ex-girlfriend or ex-wife called the police saying he was unwell and he was armed.
00:58:53.000So the police came to serve a red flag warrant, or whatever they call it, That's where they take your guns away.
00:58:58.000They show up at your house, you've committed no crime, and they say, someone thinks you're unwell, you have to give us your guns, and then wait a period until we undergo an evaluation, and then you'll get your guns back.
00:59:07.000And if you fail, then you don't get your guns back.
00:59:09.000So this guy, he's an older guy, he's in his 60s I guess, hears a knock at the door, and he grabs his gun, and he answers the door with the gun, and the cops tell him, we're here to take your guns, and he says, like, hell you are, and so they fight over his gun, and then they shot and killed the guy.
00:59:22.000When people say, my cold dead hands, they mean it.
00:59:40.000Are you familiar with the phrase, when the government, when the people fear their government, there's tyranny, but when the government fears their people, there's liberty?
01:00:13.000If you want to stop gun violence, you would deal with inner cities where guns are banned.
01:00:19.000That's where most of the gun homicides are at.
01:00:21.000Same with suicide, same with police officer shootings.
01:00:24.000When you look at the statistics, people having the ability to defend themselves is not a bad thing.
01:00:30.000Overall, especially in the kind of grander experiment in the United States, if you look at places that are more gun-friendly, where you have more freedoms to bear arms, you have a lot less crime, you have a lot less murders, you have a lot less homicides.
01:00:44.000And I think that's because people are equalized by knowing that they could defend themselves.
01:00:48.000Are you allowed to open carry in Austin, Texas?
01:00:51.000I don't know about Austin, Texas specifically.
01:00:53.000They do have a very left-leaning mayor and a lot of transplants from California do move there.
01:00:58.000Gun laws are extremely spotty all over the United States.
01:02:08.000Well, people people don't know that's not I mean people are sure if a criminal wants a gun or a Weapon or to hurt someone they're gonna find it one way or another in Europe.
01:02:18.000They're using buses They're using knives and there's even conversations in the United Kingdom about banning knives and they have in some jurisdictions Dude, they arrested- there was this big story a couple years ago where they arrested a construction worker for having, I think, a Leatherman.
01:02:42.000I've seen stories about kids in my neighborhood tying a shoelace to a padlock and then swinging it and whacking someone in the head with it.
01:03:31.000But why is it that in places where guns are heavily restricted, you have these problems, and in places where guns aren't heavily restricted, you kind of don't have these problems?
01:04:07.000It's like, you know, you have these two larger contradictory messages out there, you know, and this idea that the government cares for you, that we need a bigger government to fix the the government's problems that they created themselves it's just it's it's insane and and gun control i mean it's a step towards total tyranny because once they go after that i mean anything's on the table for what they could do to you and we saw governments in canada governments in australia really push it to the limit to what they could do with their citizens right after they got rid of their ability to have
01:04:40.000uh... you know firearms and we saw huge legislation canada australia
01:04:45.000almost eliminated people's abilities to defend themselves it's not even i don't
01:04:49.000i think you're saying that in the tool won't change anything and i
01:04:53.000i think even out in places like west virginia
01:04:56.000gun laws are it's it's totally cultural Everything we're seeing, the crime, the problems, culture problems, the lack of crime, it also has nothing to do with guns.
01:05:04.000I don't think the fact that someone can open carry deters crime.
01:05:07.000I'm thinking about how you can talk to a sheriff and he's going to be like, hey man, you know, I'm not going to go in and mess with you and do these things.
01:05:14.000You go to New York and Tony Bologna pepper sprays four women on the street for no reason.
01:05:18.000It's cultural problems in big cities where people are nasty.
01:05:23.000A lot of people say like, oh, it's the blue, it's the Democrats.
01:05:25.000And I'm like, no, no, I think, I think culture in decay in blue cities leads to corrupt politicians who use feel-good Democrat policies to gain power.
01:05:35.000And then you look at these other cities where they have open carry and things like that.
01:05:38.000It's because they're more trusting of each other.
01:05:45.000In New York, they're like, you can't have that because I'm worried you're going to shoot me.
01:05:48.000In DC, they put up big fences and a security primer because they're scared people are going to come after them.
01:05:54.000It's absolutely hypocritical to see individuals like Nancy Pelosi that wants machine guns at the Capitol telling you, you can't have a firearm.
01:06:04.000You can't have a quote, weapon of war.
01:06:06.000And we're seeing such bastardized language.
01:06:09.000We're seeing such Orwellian tactics used here to make you paint As some kind of crazy terrorist criminal if you believe in the right to defend yourself no no you're you're just a logical thinking human being that understands just like it as you keep saying to him it's important to have a fire extinguisher in your house because again it's not that you're going to of course look for fires but but it's there in case there is one and that preventative
01:06:36.000Let's just be honest here when we see Strong-armed robberies.
01:06:40.000They don't take place where they have a lot of individuals that are that are armed Yeah, usually take place in situations where people are disarmed.
01:06:47.000So so what's what's that movie with Gerard Butler and The guys break into his house and like kill his family and it becomes like this crazy revenge rampage.
01:07:13.000So he's a dad, he's got a wife and a kid, and then one day his doorbell rings, and he opens it, and then he immediately gets smacked in the head with a baseball bat and falls down.
01:07:23.000They zip tie his hands, and then they murder his wife and his daughter.
01:08:17.000But, you know, I think about this, just working here and everything like that, and wondering about, what's the point of even having a fire extinguisher if it's too far away and a fire happens, you can't put it out?
01:08:26.000Right, when chaos ensues, things happen fast, you gotta have a plan.
01:08:30.000So we put fire extinguishers in, like, every room.
01:08:33.000Like, most businesses will do this, they'll have a fire extinguisher in every room.
01:08:36.000Okay, well, what happens if you see this, you know, I love... You see this commercial, there's a gun control commercial, where a guy angrily storms into an office with a musket, and then he fires once, and then he stops, and he starts loading it, he pours the powder in, and then he puts the ball, and they start stuffing it, and it's like, uh-huh, we get the point, and they were like, this is what the founding fathers expected, and I'm like, how do you subdue a threat when...
01:08:56.000Kids can go into a school with any weapon they want and go on a rampage.
01:09:35.000I don't think that's true, but I think the point that you're getting at is that a lot of mass shooting events were connected to individuals who were on SSRIs.
01:09:43.000Well, so, yes, but the point I'm saying is there's cultural issues.
01:09:47.000In Chicago, a leading factor for these shootings is lovers' trysts.
01:09:52.000Like, I went night crawling, and a bunch of these deaths we were tracking was a guy smack-talking some other guy on Twitter or Snapchat about some girl he was hooking up with.
01:10:08.000I guess now, what they're doing is nothing to do with honor, it's just like, the willingness to kill someone who slights you.
01:10:14.000Back in the day, that at least gave you ten paces and then you turn, right?
01:10:17.000What's happening in Chicago is a guy will post on Snapchat, like, you know, after your girlfriend, the other guy says, you're gonna get it, and then the guy drives to his house and shoots the other guy.
01:10:27.000So that's a cultural problem where someone's willing to kill someone else.
01:10:30.000We just had this story where some young girl stabbed another girl to death just because, like, they... They were bragging about it on social media.
01:10:38.000That's another part that's absolutely sickening.
01:10:42.000I think guns are a scapegoat for the deep-seated cultural problems and the cultural decay affecting this country.
01:10:48.000Well, humans have been killing each other forever.
01:10:50.000But what I'm saying is if you go to Austin and everyone's open, caring, and you're not having this extremely high murder rate, then what's going on in New York City?
01:10:58.000Something is broken and has nothing to do with guns.
01:11:00.000Because there's no correlation between the murder and guns.
01:11:03.000If you look at, you know, the city of Tehran, they are arming themselves illegally because the Mexican government tells them to stop arming themselves.
01:11:13.000They told them to give up their weapons.
01:11:15.000And their death rate in their town went to zero percent.
01:11:19.000It was some of the highest death rate in all of Mexico went to zero when the citizens started to arm themselves and literally kicked out the government and the police and the cartels all along in one smooth move.
01:11:31.000So we're having an individuals that are armed, that do have a lot of firearms, that are protected, that have their own militias, that do open carry throughout the streets, and you have zero murders?
01:11:42.000When you had hundreds of murders beforehand and the highest death rate in all of Mexico in Michoacán, one of the deadliest states of all of Mexico?
01:11:51.000So that's another tale that I think is worth noting, worth talking about here with this larger debate, especially in Mexico where guns are illegal, but homicides by firearms are extremely high.
01:12:02.000Maybe, you know, that Thomas Jefferson quote, assuming it was Jefferson.
01:12:13.000What I mean by that is, I should, you know, look, if you've got some dude who's like 6'6 and like 220, just sheer muscle or 250 or whatever, and I don't know what the right muscle mass to like height would be, but like some super ripped dude.
01:12:35.000Just think of Jack Murphy while we're telling this story.
01:12:37.000No, I'm talking about like a He-Man type.
01:12:39.000And he walks around knowing that he's bigger and stronger than everyone and pushes them around.
01:12:43.000Now you have a five foot tall woman, and he's laughing at her and mocking her, and then she's got on her waist, you know, she's got a revolver.
01:12:51.000And so all of a sudden he's a bit more respectful.
01:12:53.000It's people, like with being armed and being respectful, trustworthy, but also having something, you know, giving someone a reasonable fear of if they screw with you, they have something to fear.
01:13:06.000This way, you might have, back in the day, some big, tall guy who knows you stronger than you can push you around.
01:13:11.000Now I've got everybody who's armed, and they're gonna be like, I'm not worried about you shooting me, but I'm not gonna screw with you because I know you can.
01:13:18.000That works if people are not desperate.
01:14:03.000We're going to keep expanding and growing as a society, because if we try and stop that momentum, we're going to end up stressing out and killing each other, I feel like.
01:14:11.000That's what we've been doing, and it doesn't look like it's going to change.
01:14:15.000Well, historically, if you look at the largest killer of people, it's usually democide, which is death by government.
01:14:22.000So historically saying what the biggest threat here it's usually typically government.
01:14:30.000We need people to have confidence in the system and feel comfortable and respected, and that's not happening.
01:14:37.000You talk about wanting to go to Mars and fusion energy and all that stuff, and I completely agree.
01:14:41.000It's just really hard to do when you have a manipulative, sociopathic establishment that strips the value of all the working people and allocates it to really dumb things that people don't need.
01:15:03.000I mean, a lot of conservatives are pointing out that a lot of high-profile investors make money off the trains transporting crude and the freight transporting crude.
01:15:36.000Should we spend it on, I don't know, covering the medical costs for as many U.S.
01:15:41.000citizens as possible, which it wouldn't be that many relative to total population, or should we allocate it to Pakistani gender studies programs?
01:16:37.000I think what we're seeing now is the old guard has lost their ability, the establishment has lost control, and the people are taking the power back.
01:16:45.000And I wasn't so confident, you know, earlier in the year, but seeing Wall Street bets challenge these hedge funds and win, seeing how desperate the media has become, and then seeing That they've become so desperate they are revealing themselves.
01:17:41.000After 2008, the terms whiteness, systemic racism, intersectionality, white supremacy, discrimination, all of them skyrocketed right after Occupy Wall Street.
01:17:51.000Because when they saw the class war coming, they said, make it an identity war.
01:19:39.000Which, by the way, by the way, Dr. Fauci came out today on national television, said, there's no data showing that two masks work.
01:19:46.000After recommending yes yes yes he literally said that he literally was on national television and he was like there's no data that that talks about that that it makes any difference after saying last week that it's common sense for people to wear two masks again another major flip-flop and if we go into the COVID-19 thing what about all the National Guardsmen troops that are coming down with COVID we're also hearing that there's a massive cover-up with the National Guard troops that's covering up hundreds of them that are Put into very close quarters, sharing a small amount of restroom facilities, not being able to shower, not being able to sleep properly, getting a ton of COVID, and there's no mainstream media hysteria about a super COVID spreader event like there was with the alleged insurrection, which is again just another layer of hypocrisy here that needs to be unfurled so people understand through the bullcrap the reality that we live in.
01:20:39.000So I'm just watching everything kind of fall apart.
01:20:42.000And then I go out today to go, you know, we're gonna go grab, I had to run some errands, go to the post office, go grab some food, and everything was closed.
01:20:49.000And, you know, I mentioned it earlier in the show, went to a Mexican restaurant, just closed, no signs in the door, and I was confused.
01:22:24.000I'm looking for an article right now about a scientist coming out and saying it is almost, I think he might have even said that it's definitive that COVID was made in a laboratory.
01:23:03.000New York manned the Lab Leak Hypothesis article.
01:23:07.000So, you know, YouTube wants to ban people for bringing it up, and then Media Matters smears you if you do, and then New York Mag and Huffington Post are the ones who actually promoted it.
01:23:15.000Washington Post ran the Lab Leak Hypothesis.
01:23:18.000But now I'm just sitting here like, it's a distraction in my opinion.
01:23:20.000Getting people to talk about the origin doesn't change the fact that it is Cuomo, it is these Democrat governors and many Republican governors who have chosen to destroy your life.
01:23:29.000Like, maybe it would help us learn how to deal with it if we understood if it was human-made or if it was naturally formed.
01:24:01.000We don't have any accurate, exact evidence.
01:24:05.000We don't have any exact evidence, but we have a lot of theories, and we have a lot of hypothetical information.
01:24:10.000I just don't think it's going to save small businesses.
01:24:13.000It's worth people doing their own homework, their own research, and making up their own minds.
01:24:16.000I think it's a distraction at this point.
01:24:18.000I think we need to figure out why they're destroying people's lives and businesses, and that's the important story.
01:24:23.000Yeah, and what made me think about it is that you're saying the National Guards are getting it, and it's been underreported that they're being stuffed into unsanitary conditions.
01:24:31.000Well, of course, there's thousands of them that were literally put into parking lots, sleeping on top of each other.
01:24:37.000There were thousands of people sharing one bathroom and having no facilities to shower and clean themselves.
01:24:42.000What do you think that's going to, what do you think that's going to, you know, happening?
01:25:00.000I tweeted that video under under Luke Weir change eye-opening video We should play it later on in the special.
01:25:05.000All right, so let's do this because we do have another segment I want to talk about Before we move on, we'll do a bonus segment after this show talking about masks, labs, COVID, all that stuff, and what's being reported, what's being said.
01:25:19.000And this is our safe space at TimCast.com, where, believe it or not, even though it's members-only content, they'll still come after us.
01:25:36.000But we'll talk about it, and we'll go through these things, because as far as I'm concerned, I think it's only a matter of time before they nuke us off these platforms.
01:25:46.000I mean, I'm not going to say anything that I don't already say on my YouTube channel, but we're just going to have to be careful how we say it with the official sources, with, of course, you know, the documents, with, of course, in a way where it's done honestly, so there's no excuse to ban anyone or to hit anyone or to strike anyone because, I mean, we literally dot our I's, cross our T's, we make sure that every... Like that matters.
01:26:07.000All the information, it doesn't matter, but at the end of the day, it does factor in.
01:26:11.000So there is a factor to this that makes the people in the middle who are watching this, who are not knowing what's going on, that's the people you got to play for.
01:26:19.000You got to play for the people in the middle who haven't made up their mind yet.
01:26:22.000And if you could show them without a doubt that you did your job correctly, you looked at everything, you provided accurate, good information to the people, and if they still hit you for that, you're going to gain a whole lot of support.
01:26:36.000Let me just say one thing real quick, because I want to segue into this next segment,
01:26:40.000and then we'll do Super Chats after it.
01:26:42.000But if you go to TimCast.com, we actually have an entire bonus episode.
01:26:44.000It's 45 minutes long, talking about Epstein and a bunch of those things that YouTube would absolutely
01:26:49.000And so that's, if you're a member, you'll get that episode.
01:26:58.000And I know that people that run YouTube and Google know that free speech is one of the core tenets of what will help us democratize this planet.
01:27:06.000And I also understand you're running a website and you need to moderate it and make sure that things don't spiral out of control.
01:27:11.000Conspiracy theories can confuse people.
01:27:15.000I believe that we are on the same path, and that we want to help people.
01:27:20.000So, I think that talking about these things in a balanced way is incredibly important.
01:27:25.000What makes you think YouTube believes in free speech?
01:27:29.000I think that the people that work there, from my experience, because I was with YouTube before Google bought them, and Chad Hurley was the man, and the essence of YouTube, being able to make video and put yourself out there to speak your truth, is still prevalent.
01:27:43.000And Google liked that and that's why they bought it.
01:27:46.000And they want to subsidize it so that people can make a living doing that.
01:27:50.000Jack Dorsey and Mark Zuckerberg don't care at all.
01:27:52.000Well, I'm not worried about Twitter and Facebook right now.
01:28:50.000You're both, both of you guys are right.
01:28:51.000And I think the scenario here is as unfolding as you guys both see it.
01:28:55.000But I think there is a small chance of what Ian is saying that there's a middle person that could say, well, they actually did everything by the book.
01:29:03.000They actually provided a service that's good and might not report it to the higher ups.
01:29:07.000So that might be the opportunity and chance that you're right.
01:29:10.000But you're right at the end of the day, if someone at the top wants to strike someone down, if you want to hit a dog, you're always going to find a stick.
01:29:42.000So at the end of the day, that person that's on the top, that's making these bigger kind of generalized orders, he or she could only do so much, right?
01:29:51.000So they can't just ban outright everyone all the time.
01:29:55.000And we should never give them an excuse to give them any reason to do it.
01:30:00.000We're gonna do one more segment, and then we'll do Super Chats, and this one will probably be like 10 or 15 minutes or so, but check out this story.
01:30:07.000It's not the biggest story in the world, but it needs to be talked about.
01:30:10.000SWAT team sweeps homeless out of Washington State Hotel that was taken over by activists.
01:30:20.000Two Olympia Police SWAT teams, two teams, went door-to-door at the Red Lion Hotel Sunday night, breaking up what police called a forcible occupation by homeless advocates.
01:30:31.000Other officers escorted out employees who were sheltering in the basement for more than six hours feeling trapped, police said.
01:30:37.000Seven people were detained, and more arrests are expected, CBS affiliate Cairo TV reports.
01:30:45.000The incident was similar to one seen recently in Fife, Washington.
01:30:48.000The activists, from a group called Only Housing Now, paid for 17 rooms for one night, moved in 33 homeless people, and tried to arrange for them to stay indefinitely without paying.
01:30:59.000They demanded that Thurston County use funds from FEMA to pay for rooms.
01:31:07.000We actually want this hotel to get business.
01:31:10.000That's the opposite of what's gonna happen, by the way.
01:31:12.000Police said they started receiving calls at about 11 a.m.
01:31:15.000from hotel employees who said people with batons, knives, hatchets, gas masks, helmets, and goggles had entered the lobby, apparently prepared for a confrontation.
01:31:25.000Officers estimated there were about 45 members of the group inside and out.
01:31:29.000Now, they just had batons, knives, hatchets, gas masks, helmets, and goggles, but they don't mean any harm.
01:32:16.000Yeah, and you know, it does underscore very serious problems we have in our country.
01:32:24.000You know, I was talking about Jon Stewart earlier.
01:32:27.000He tweeted that, I guess in response to getting smacked around by these late-night hosts over his pro-Wall Street Bets comment, he said, so if I do good at this, do I become president?
01:32:38.000And then I was like, yeah, become president.
01:32:41.000What are you gonna do, run on your unrelenting support for 9-11 first responders?
01:33:17.000We don't just throw them in the street.
01:33:19.000Well, what happens is when our government takes our money, our tax dollars, when they print massive amounts of money, they strip our value away and their buddies rip us off.
01:33:27.000They send that money overseas for God knows what, and they do nothing to solve the problem.
01:33:33.000And you end up with a bunch of angry people who show up with batons, and that doesn't solve the problem either.
01:33:37.000But hey, I can respect the anger, to be honest.
01:33:39.000I'm sick of the money being wasted on nonsensical bullcrap.
01:33:43.000I don't understand how the Flint crisis went on as long as it did.
01:34:11.000I mean, when you look at the rate that the American people are taxed, I mean, it's not as high as Europe, but when you add it all up, it's absolutely incredibly jaw-dropping to understand how much money the government takes, and then where do they spend the money?
01:34:26.000As you said, you know, speedboats for Sri Lanka.
01:34:30.000That was literally in the budget bill that was passed.
01:34:39.000Before we jump there, I want to finish on this topic here particularly because when you look at the homeless situation, it's about to get way, way worse.
01:34:48.000Not only because of the larger financial tsunami coming our way from the ramifications of the 2020 lockdowns, which they're coming, which we still haven't felt the full ramifications of, it's going to hit people and it's going to hit people hard.
01:35:46.000Well, grab as much of the fine china and silverware as you can, get to an escape boat, and then get out before anyone realizes the ship's sinking.
01:36:33.000I've also seen that some people with mental disabilities or whatever that are just, are not in a position that even if you give them a place to stay, a job and a bunch of money, they're going to fail and land right back on the street.
01:36:43.000There are some people like that, but there are many people that are homeless and what they need is a shower and a bed.
01:36:50.000They need a shower so that they can clean themselves so that they can become presentable to get the job.
01:36:55.000Because if you stink, you're not going to get the job.
01:36:58.000They need a shower, they need a clean shirt, they need a haircut, they need a shave, and it's really hard to do when you live nowhere.
01:37:49.000Some people have, you know, psychotic disorders and need medication.
01:37:52.000Some people can't afford the medication.
01:37:54.000You get left with a large group of people that are just basically thrown into the gutter, and we have no real easy way to solve the problem.
01:38:00.000It may not be a problem that can be solved, to be honest, but we can mitigate it properly.
01:38:05.000I don't think occupying a hotel solves the problem.
01:38:08.000In fact, it's probably gonna make it worse.
01:38:09.000Not by force, definitely not by force.
01:38:19.000Of course, you gotta fly through hoops to get into Section 8, whereas a homeless shelter you can just walk in and stay.
01:38:25.000If you look at the, you know, poverty rates, it's usually a cycle that just keeps spinning itself into oblivion with the way that the system has established itself that essentially screws people over with either too much taxes, too much regulations, too much on them.
01:38:42.000decentivize anyone from from any kind of economic mobility because there's barely any left.
01:38:47.000You're talking about low-skill jobs, they're replaced by immigrants. You're talking about
01:38:51.000high-skill jobs, they're replaced by visa programs for immigrants. And then companies like Elon Musk
01:38:57.000get in trouble for not hiring enough immigrants. So where's the upward economic mobility? There
01:39:05.000It's all a big system where people within the banking system literally print zero onto a computer and that's how our financial system is run.
01:39:14.000Meanwhile, everyone else, what do they do?
01:39:16.000They get stuck in this poverty cycle that they never get out of because there's no way out of it.
01:40:02.000Because that would lead us towards the Matrix, where people are in pods, like generating heat for the system, this giant machine that's like controlling everything.
01:40:09.000But otherwise, we have homeless people all over the street.
01:41:20.000But so in the meantime, they're out on the street just like polluting the environment, whatever, trapping on the ground, blocking traffic, terrifying people that are walking by.
01:41:29.000So one place in Northern California wants to rendition.
01:42:18.000I think San Francisco is a really good example of what happens when you have an oligopoly.
01:42:23.000When you've got Zuckerbergs and Dorseys controlling the system, and they're ultra-wealthy elites who pretend to be good people.
01:42:30.000Dorsey's probably the worst, because he's like this hippie guy who talks about all these great things, and then he's just a billionaire who funds critical race theory, and then people are crapping on the street and homeless and destitute.
01:42:40.000But at least he can fund critical race theory, right?
01:43:11.000There are establishment individuals who pretend to be on the left who would waste their time pulling quotes from me out of context for the goal of making a partisan rage bait piece of content.
01:43:33.000And they cut and edit them so that they get you or Luke or me saying things, and then they use that so that people don't want to listen to what we have to say.
01:43:44.000Because if they did, they'd be like, hey, we actually think a lot of the same things.
01:43:48.000We agree on a lot of the same problems.
01:43:49.000Don't worry too much about that stuff.
01:43:52.000We're trying to unify the people against the machine that is stripping our value away and destroying our lives.
01:43:59.000And what happens is you get grifters, useful idiots for the establishment, who go on their shows, take clips out of context from shows like this, and then say, Tim Pool is far right.
01:44:07.000When, like, literally, I'm pretty sure the entire bent of this show has been fairly left-wing.
01:44:38.000We did this thing on Jacobin where we looked at the magazine cover of Biden and Jesus and we were laughing at them.
01:44:44.000But the greater context of the segment was about how the left in general, the establishment left, not the progressives, were overwhelmingly praising Biden with clouds breaking and sunlight beaming down on the inauguration.
01:44:57.000And we were just using the Jacobin thing as a launching point.
01:45:00.000But to be fair, we did not realize initially that it was meant to mock the exact same thing.
01:45:06.000However, in that podcast, we did say, oh man, wait a minute, there's drones on the cover?
01:46:28.000The issue I'm worried about is not- it's not personal.
01:46:31.000It's about how they do this to anybody who might actually agree with them.
01:46:34.000That the tribe is more important than the cause.
01:46:36.000They will mock Like you, Ian, probably agree with a lot of these left-wing personalities substantially more than anyone we've had on the show.
01:46:44.000Like, especially criticisms of Donald Trump.
01:46:46.000But they would cut segments above you to make you look like you're far right, instead of just being like, we like this guy.
01:46:52.000Because it's more, for them, the tribe is more important than the cause.
01:46:56.000So my concern is, we want to get people to rally around what we all agree on and build culture and community and support for the things we can accomplish.
01:47:05.000But the grifters are the ones who are destroying that because they're more interested in clicks and rallying people to hate each other.
01:47:42.000So like the one segment they did where we were talking about Jacobin, they had to edit it to make Luke look stupid because they completely agreed with Luke at every point he was making about the Democrats.
01:47:53.000So they made it seem like Luke- How do you even get to see the image?
01:47:56.000I was just generally talking about the larger principles of not worshiping someone who's in politics.
01:48:03.000There can't be a podcast where there's actually kind of a moderate view on things.
01:48:08.000So they have to edit it out of context.
01:48:10.000But it's not personal, it's more about... Hey, on the upside, our show about Jacobin got, I don't know, half a million views, whereas the clips probably got a third of that, or, you know, this show is getting more views than those clips, so that's a good sign.
01:48:23.000Well, you know, I just wish people would... Maybe, I think, I don't know.
01:49:47.000Let's see, MD Noslu says, Hi, I'm Tim Poole, I'm rich, but I need you to send me more money to tell you what you already know.
01:49:57.000Hi, I'm Tim Poole, I'm rich, and I run a business where if you like getting this content, you can watch for free for 99% of that content, sometimes with ads or with a sponsor read, and if you really like the content and would like to pay for a product that we produce, you can go to timcast.com and become a member.
01:50:13.000It's a really weird thing to me about running a business, like, If I spent time making you a sandwich and then asked you to pay for it, most people would be okay with that.
01:50:21.000But there's a weird thing where online, people are like, don't give money to this business for the products they produce because they already have money.
01:50:59.000And we just rely on ad sponsorships and Super Chats.
01:51:03.000So it's basically like a pay-what-you-will model.
01:51:05.000You don't have to Super Chat if you don't want to.
01:51:07.000And then we have the membership thing where we produce content that is ad-free completely and uncensored and for those that are willing to buy that product.
01:51:15.000Sometimes it's awkward to market your own products.
01:51:18.000That's why people will hire marketing firms to do it for them.
01:51:20.000And why, as an actor, you have an agent to go do it for you so you don't have to be the one that's like, hey, can I come in?
01:51:25.000And it's similar with with TimCast.com.
01:54:34.000But this is, the reason these people are considered folk heroes is because they called out the scammers who are ripping people off and destroying everything.
01:56:02.000We are upgrading the whole site, and to be honest, I had people who had done it on PayPal for a long time, and I didn't realize how big the influx would be if we started the website.
01:56:14.000But my friends, let me tell you something.
01:56:17.000I believe based on your memberships, the only thing stopping us from rivaling the Young Turks in terms of network and access and everything is time.
01:56:28.000I'm fairly confident, you know, and I'm not saying this to be disrespectful to the Young Turks at all.
01:56:32.000I'm using them as sort of like a marking of where independent channels can be on YouTube.
01:56:38.000We've surpassed- I've- my channels have surpassed them in views a long time ago.
01:56:42.000I did reduce the amount of content I produce, so it may have normalized.
01:56:45.000But now with the memberships, it's- it's a very real possibility we get- we can start like a 24-hour network, hire on more personalities to do separate shows, and really expand this in ways I've never- I didn't totally expect.
01:57:19.000So what that would really be, though, you know, we're gonna start slow.
01:57:22.000We're not just gonna start with 24 hours and have all these different hosts and everything.
01:57:26.000But the amount of people who signed up, I just gotta say, it's substantial.
01:57:29.000And now I'm like, okay, let's do this.
01:57:31.000Let's do new channels, let's do more people.
01:57:32.000We could do like a 24-hour stream in the skate park with like a VIP camera section where you can go up there, sit down and talk to the camera 24-7 streaming.
01:57:39.000We could literally have like seven shows where it's like the 3 p.m.
01:57:58.000There's a lot more that I can't necessarily say about the expansion, but it's good news for those who are investors in Subverse, now Scanner.
01:58:08.000We are working on this project, and this will be really, really good news for everybody.
01:58:13.000I'll just leave it at that, and we'll read some more Super Chats.
01:58:16.000Uh, I will, I will lightly touch on it too.
01:58:19.000I don't know if we sent out the letter to the investors yet, but we fully plan like COVID really jammed up the scanner project in ways we could not foresee.
01:58:28.000Getting physical space, hiring people was all completely shuttered because essentially couldn't operate in cities.
01:58:33.000But we do have, we are working through the kinks, and we plan on doing a big launch soon.
02:00:51.000So there's actually a couple more comments.
02:00:53.000C. Hennessy says, Musk explained in a Q&A that because it's rocketry, your employees have to get military clearance first before they can work.
02:03:20.000Look, so many people signed up that we are like bringing people on working overtime to try and fix it and make it bigger because it's taken off, man.
02:03:54.000Sean Anderson says, I know I'm old when you mentioned Killdozer, and my first thought was the 1947 sci-fi made-for-television movie starring Clint Walker.
02:04:02.000It's on YouTube, check it out for a chuckle.
02:04:05.000Nimit says, you have lied to, locked up, and destroyed the businesses of, give or take, 100 million draft-age males for over a year, then you shove the fact the American dream is dead and every system is rigged in their faces.
02:08:47.000And if for some reason, by the end of the week, you still haven't gotten an email, just send another email.
02:08:51.000The easiest way to explain it is an episode of Simpsons where Mr. Burns goes to the doctor, and the doctor says that he has literally every disease known to man.
02:08:58.000And so he says, look at these oversized novelty germs.
02:09:00.000Now, one of them can easily fit through the door, but when they all try going through at the same time, they get stuck.
02:09:06.000And so then once the door got jammed, every new sign-up was jammed, and then the automated system broke, and then it required manual intervention.
02:09:42.000And so the Trump derangement syndrome, which is a reference to people who are irrationally angry at Trump, turned into people who irrationally support Trump.
02:12:08.000And he got like 3 million views in just like a...
02:12:13.000And the music video I mean, I mean it was and the lyrics were profound I think what I love one of the things I love about Tom is his gratitude He just it's got the essence of gratitude to his fans.
02:12:24.000I kind of dismissed him for a while I was like, yeah, whatever.
02:12:28.000I'm like, whatever I But then I started listening I listened to the song today I was like, whoa, like this is powerful stuff so he's got a bunch of his songs are like I Yeah, it's like talking cultural politics.
02:12:45.000He pays attention to what's going on, so shout out to him for doing that.
02:12:49.000And being smart and having something conscious rather than the garbage nonsense that's promoted by the mainstream media and the main music industry that wants you to be sucking down cough syrup and some drugs.
02:12:59.000So thank you for doing something different.
02:13:04.000It may at some point because we have talked to him a bit and he's a cool dude.
02:13:09.000So, you know, we'll just... Early in the year, bad weather, you know, COVID, everybody's got, you know, things that are kind of creating hurdles for, you know, so there's a lot of people we've actually had who will want to come on the show that would be really, really awesome.
02:13:21.000And then they're like, but maybe we should wait after winter.
02:13:30.000I don't, I don't like naming the people who we have coming on, but there's a lot of people we're trying to get, which will be amazing conversations.
02:13:35.000Like, I wish I could say I can't though, but someone recently, we, we, I believe the PR company for one very, very high profile dude who was canceled, reached out to us.
02:13:45.000And I'm hoping this is a legit request.
02:13:47.000Cause I would love to have this dude on, but I'm not going to say who.
02:13:49.000I contacted Nassim Harriman about the Schwarzschild proton unification theory.
02:14:12.000We were sleeping together in the same, you know, group.
02:14:16.000Yeah, he spent his years working out of his van because the scientific community wouldn't take his work seriously because it basically upended a lot of like accepted physics, but what he seems to have unified the universe into one energy form.
02:14:50.000Yeah, because I think for the most part, me and Ian agree, you know, but when we have our disagreements, we voice those disagreements.
02:14:57.000We're like really kind of logical and straight edge, but I play like a really wild character on this show intentionally because I think it's good to bring that crazy to the table.
02:15:07.000I didn't realize you were playing a character, Ian.
02:15:09.000Well, I'm just saying some of the most Out there stuff because who else is going to say it?
02:15:12.000People need to hear this because they need to question themselves.
02:16:29.000Hank Bow Horseman says, Hey Tim, as an aspiring studying musician, I'm a big fan of the idea of creating culture, but I'm afraid of the potential social ramifications of sharing music, especially with my uni.
02:16:44.000When you're going to look back at just your life, you're going to notice how fast it goes and how you should have taken a lot of those shots that you just denied yourself.
02:18:05.000Will Billy the Hillbilly says, hey Ian, wireless power doesn't work due to power density in the air.
02:18:11.000Thousands of volts and hundreds of amps will not only mess with electronics, wireless connections, but it's also very unhealthy and will basically cook you.
02:18:19.000You could send it through the earth, I think.
02:18:21.000That's what Tesla was experimenting with.
02:18:31.000Jonathan McLee says, would love to see Charlie LaDuff, the author of S-Show, The Country's Collapsing, and the ratings are great on your show.
02:20:49.000Ladies and gentlemen, we are going to record now a special bonus segment, uncensored, talking about the lab leak hypothesis for COVID, among some other things.
