In this episode, Chet tells a story about how he called out a racist friend of his family, and the rest of the guys talk about Trump being a Nazi symbol, and a conspiracy theory about the color red triangles.
00:00:17.000While we're getting the show ready, somebody chatted something like, Adam was racist, and it's really funny because As I'm looking at the screen, I'm like, you know, glazed over.
00:00:25.000Adam's telling a story about how he hates racism.
00:00:27.000And he's like, man, I got to tell somebody.
00:00:29.000And then the thing popped up and I'm like, how did that person know just right at that moment to say that?
00:00:34.000It wasn't just that I said I hated racism.
00:00:37.000It's that I called out someone and it wasn't actually my own family member, but it was, it was a, like a prominent, like friend of the family.
00:01:37.000I'm all tired and I'm sitting here like this like Adams Adams doing this impassioned story like and I said to them you don't speak to my sister that way and I'm like I'm like I look over at the screen and it's like Adam is a racist and I'm like Adams defiant like And I will make sure they hear my voice when I say it.
00:02:48.000You showed me some of those Antifa symbols that you were looking at earlier before the show, and it's like, that pretty much looks like a red triangle upside down, just like that.
00:02:57.000Yeah, so apparently, I guess the Trump campaign used this symbol because they were like, it's a symbol from Antifa or whatever, but it's like a weird, obscure thing to do.
00:05:30.000It was a really funny Reddit comment where someone was like, you can just leave it the same and just claim it was named for George Washington Carver and George Jefferson.
00:05:48.000But at the same time, the weird thing about it is they're getting rid of all these mascots for, like, different food companies that are black.
00:06:56.000And it's funny because we're talking about him live right now while he's live talking about... We're like, I don't know, what is Crowder saying?
00:07:04.000It sounds like he said in his rant, I'm pretty sure, didn't he say silence is consent?
00:08:56.000They got 1.4 billion people and they got like 10 megacities.
00:09:00.000Actually, I've been talking to a lot of people about this China-India confrontation.
00:09:06.000And I guess because of all the factories going under not necessarily going under but stopping production America's taking that back.
00:09:15.000They're trying to bring factories back here 40% of Chinese people are out of jobs 40% Wow, so think about that.
00:09:22.000Those are our jobs Well, yeah, maybe a lot of them like we start building factories We got we got more jobs this way, but imagine and they're saying like China needs to either you know have a land war or They're basically trying, they gotta cull the masses.
00:09:38.000That's what they're saying China needs to do, and that's why they're trying to get into a land war with India.
00:10:33.000It was probably Bloomberg or something being like, you know, the communists and their authoritarianism has done well to help the people live better.
00:10:42.000I don't know if it was actually Bloomberg, so I'm probably gonna get in trouble.
00:10:44.000So I'm not saying it was actually him, but I wanted to imitate him.
00:13:18.000I talk about two articles, one from the Daily Mail and one from the Washington Post, saying they believe it's possible this disease came from a laboratory.
00:13:26.000And I say, we don't know for sure, but it's interesting to see they're entertaining it.
00:16:25.000Dungeons & Dragons teaches that diversity is strength, for only a diverse group of adventurers can overcome the many challenges a D&D story presents.
00:16:35.000In that spirit, making D&D as welcoming and inclusive as possible has moved to forefront To the forefront of our priorities over the last six years.
00:16:44.000We'd like to share with you what we've been doing and what we plan to do in the future to address legacy D&D content that does not reflect who we are today.
00:16:54.000We recognize that doing this isn't about getting to the place where we can rest on our laurels, but continuing to head in the right direction.
00:17:03.000We feel that being transparent about it is the best way to let our community help us to continue to calibrate our efforts.
00:17:10.000Okay, so... Wow, so that was prepping us for the rest.
00:17:49.000They're not like an alien species, but basically, if you were to think about what another species is that isn't a human being, It's like, check this out.
00:18:02.000It's riddled with glorious... They say, we present Orcs and Drow in a new light in two of our most recent books.
00:18:11.000Eberron, Rising from the Last War, and Explorer's Guide to the Wildemount.
00:18:15.000In those books, Orcs and Drow are just as morally and culturally complex as other peoples.
00:18:20.000We will continue that approach in future books portraying all the peoples of D&D in relatable ways and making it clear that they are as free as humans to decide who they are and what they do.
00:18:46.000And what's really interesting about the Lord of the Rings is that there are actually multi-ethnic different kinds of races in the Lord of the Rings universe.
00:18:55.000But orcs, they honed in on it and they're like, this is what remind us of black people.
00:19:33.000Because my brain goes quick, and you know it.
00:19:35.000I was thinking to myself as you're talking about this, I'm thinking like, we just have these depictions of monsters to give us something to fight against.
00:19:51.000The orc emerges and we're like, it's not a human!
00:19:54.000And we stand side by side with our human brothers and sisters to fight the not-humans.
00:20:00.000Why, hold on, why would they need to convince us that non-human creatures are just as diverse and culturally, you know, what do they say, culturally complex as we are?
00:21:48.000We want, so in for instance in like Magic the Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons, you have super intelligent all-powerful dragon beings that can shapeshift and things like that.
00:21:57.000Are we now gonna, are they gonna come out and be like, actually the dragons are intelligent and we just need to negotiate with them?
00:23:28.000Yeah, and all all of the dye you have are they're all there.
00:23:32.000It's a d20, but it's every side is 20 and then It's all 20s and then Can you roll for hit please?
00:23:40.00020 Wow a natural 20 good for you, and so here's by the way we have participation trophies for any time you hit a 20 You so so so here's what happens The bad when you when you roll for the for them for the bad guys for the fascists, okay, there's are all ones Ah, right.
00:24:04.000So when you encounter the fascist, and he calls you naughty words, okay, that hurts.
00:24:11.000But you roll for defense, and because you have critical race theory training, you roll a natural 20 and you take no damage.
00:24:18.000But then, when you roll to attack, using your words, you calmly explain to him his white privilege, and the fascist converts and then joins your party.
00:28:05.000I can only imagine what it must be like for someone like Terry Crews to be successful and to be trying to make a better world for his family, for a wife who's mixed-race, and then to get attacked from both sides.
00:29:24.000I read this really big thing about like someone, some like a super, a super Tolkien fan who got really offended by the left's claim about racism or whatever.
00:30:57.000And now we're seeing even crowders coming out and saying it.
00:31:01.000I gotta tell you, man, from hearing from especially a lot of people in the chat, in the super chat about Trump, I'm not convinced he's gonna win at this point.
00:31:08.000I was thinking landslide for a long time, watching everything.
00:31:11.000But then I started talking to Trump supporters.
00:31:13.000I reached out to a friend of mine, and they said, no way, I'm not voting for him again.
00:32:19.000And then I started seeing a bunch of Trump supporters like, man, some people that I really, really, like high profile people being like, nope.
00:33:06.000So I was reading some threads and it was interesting because some people were saying, like, I saw some tweets from people saying that they weren't going to support Trump anymore, that he's let them down.
00:33:56.000Yeah, and they got really mad about it, and they were like, it's not fair you can't call us that because the alt-right calls themselves alt-right, and I'm like, I don't care what you, I'm gonna call you whatever I want.
00:34:03.000Well, I'm gonna start using it from now on.
00:35:37.000Dude, it blows my mind that my friends that I talk to periodically, when I try to explain to them what they're doing and why it's bad and racist, and they're convinced they're better.
00:37:22.000I want you to go to that kid, look him right in the eyes, and say, honey, you can't go to Harvard because you look too much like that person.
00:41:38.000I want you all listening to think for one second.
00:41:41.000What would you say to somebody if they started, you know, showing off Nazi imagery and iconography and symbols, and then you brought up the mainstreaming of Hitler, and they said, well, you know, I don't much care for him, I mean, he's a bad guy, but I really like what the party is doing.
00:42:11.000Well, to be fair, there's a lot of, like, just because someone's evil doesn't mean you're not gonna be able to find a quote that someone would agree with.
00:42:17.000Yeah, but they'd have to be the same thing.
00:42:51.000That's why James Lindsay and Boghossian and Helen Pluckrose were able to take a section of Mein Kampf and change it to feminist words, and they ate it up.
00:43:02.000But that was actually a really horrifying passage, though.
00:43:05.000They went for, like, one of the worst.
00:44:20.000I've seen... I try to follow a lot of different people from all sides of the spectrum to get a really good broad range of views from everybody, you know?
00:44:27.000And it's like, I don't want one source.
00:45:43.000People last longer by mixing their genes because, you know, I have certain, you know, resistances to certain things, you know, and the next person might not.
00:45:52.000We mix and create a child that is stronger.
00:45:56.000They took diversity is a strength, which is factually true, and they completely twisted it into a weird, bizarro zombie of authoritarian nonsense.
00:46:07.000Because I'll tell you what, man, it is doublespeak.
00:46:18.000The original idea was supposed to be that if you had a dude who was from, say, India or China, and he came here, they'd be like, I have seen the world in a very different way from you.
00:48:54.000No, so I you know, I've made videos about this and it's funny when they try and claim that I'm not It's it look man.
00:49:01.000I don't I don't care if people call me left or right It literally is meaningless, but I'll tell you what like even Zuby tweeted out Zuby the rapper great dude Yeah, that institutional racism and systemic race and are real and they're pervasive, but it's probably too deep to get into a big thread on Twitter Yeah, something that effect.
00:49:15.000Yeah, and I'm I probably a different perspective on him.
00:50:03.000However, the disagreements I have with conservatives are relatively minor compared to the threat of our fundamental existence as a freedom-loving people.
00:50:44.000Meaning you literally have 50-50 of Trump supporters between progressive economics and more laissez-faire economics, but the Democrats were all clustered in socialist social justice.
00:51:06.00010 million people went from Obama to Trump.
00:51:08.000And it's because you have Trump's base is actually split up between people who are just about America, but they disagree on, should we have higher taxes, lower taxes?
00:51:18.000Should we have better health, like more, more taxpayer funded healthcare type ideas, public option or universal versus private.
00:51:24.000And then you have the democratic party, social justice.
00:51:49.000So, you know, normally we do like to open with the lead story, but I actually think it makes a lot more sense to actually save it so that everybody can- Yeah, I guess we really didn't talk about it, did we?
00:52:00.000Well, no, but I think this makes more sense for those that are listening.
00:52:03.000The general idea is that by the time most people get here, you see this lead, Facebook bans Trump, but we do it in the first 10, 20 minutes, and then by the time you get here, it's like we're not talking about it.
00:52:52.000It was a symbol used by Nazis to identify prisoners, but the reason I'm drawing that distinction is that we know what their actual iconography was.
00:53:02.000The Nazis didn't walk around with this.
00:53:05.000So I think it's fair, but I think there's a semantics issue here.
00:53:08.000And the reason I'm trying to separate this is when you say that Trump was using a Nazi symbol, people are going to imagine very specific things.
00:54:29.000In two Facebook posts, Donald Trump's re-election campaign tied the loose network of Antifa, which he suggests is naming a terror organization, to an upside-down red triangle, a symbol strikingly similar to one used by Nazis in concentration camps to identify political prisoners and communists.
00:54:45.000So they show the symbol, actually, you can see it here on this prison uniform.
00:54:49.000Dangerous mobs of far-left groups are running through our streets and causing absolute mayhem, the post reads, citing no evidence for the claim.
00:54:59.000Please add your name immediately to stand with your president and his decision to declare Antifa a terror organization.
00:55:05.000Facebook later deleted the ads, saying the ads went against the company's policy against organized hate.
00:55:11.000Our policy prohibits using banned hate group symbols to identify political prisoners without the context that condemns or discusses the symbol.
00:55:18.000This is not a symbol used by the Nazis.
00:55:55.000They say, Yet Rabbi Yaakov Menken, the managing director of the conservative Jewish group, the Coalition for Jewish Values, said he did not believe the ad represented an instance of anti-Semitism by Trump or his campaign, and instead suggested that it was Antifa that was at fault for unknowingly using a Nazi symbol.
00:56:12.000Antifa has been and is very threatening to Jewish houses of worship and schools, etc.
00:56:17.000Menken said, citing reports, mostly false and exaggerated.
00:56:20.000Who's running interference for Antifa here?
00:57:52.000Now for those of you that have gotten the educational course on the Magic the Gathering card that was racist, there was a number associated with it, and I'll just put it this way.
00:58:02.000H is the eighth letter of the alphabet.
00:58:07.000But forward says two, and forward was not forgiving of Trump, so at least I'll say it's contested at this point.
00:58:12.000But I'll tell you this, Trump War Room responded to not just this tweet, but a bunch of other ones saying, this is an emoji, the red triangle.
00:58:18.000It's also a symbol widely used by Antifa.
00:58:24.000It is not in the ADL's hate symbol database.
00:58:26.000And they show this image right here, which apparently is on some website where they sell t-shirts, like somebody made the graphic and uploaded it.
00:58:36.000But I do think it's weird that Trump team is now responding to all these groups to try and just like to prove it wasn't a Nazi symbol or something.
00:59:18.000You can find anything probably from a bunch of different groups because there's lots of different art, there's lots of different symbols that have been used.
00:59:26.000And I do think it's rather absurd that it looks like yes.
00:59:29.000Now, I disagree with the wide use of Antifa and the symbol because I have not seen it.
00:59:36.000Do you think they're going to start changing yield signs?
01:01:56.000So this is an image that, as far as I know, and it's actually, the image here is cropped because there's a lot more, but it's probably better that way because, I mean, YouTube's gonna ban this video or whatever, you know, because we're showing this.
01:03:08.000But come on, man, do these kids, do they really know, I don't think they know anything about Nazi Germany or anything like that.
01:03:14.000I think they have the two flags, the Gadsden flag and the fist, and they interpret the Gadsden flag the way that their cult tells them to, that it's evil.
01:04:23.000But yeah, that's... I mean... If we're gonna start playing this game, and Facebook's gonna ban these people, I gotta think maybe Trump did know what he was doing.
01:04:33.000And not Trump personally, but his campaign seems to be pretty crafty.
01:07:46.000So this is actually listed on a ton of verified news outlet sources talking about that maybe they changed his race because it was racist back then and he was actually black.
01:08:07.000Bizarre post claims composer was African.
01:08:10.000Internet says history is being whitewashed.
01:08:13.000According to a picture being circulated on the internet, Beethoven may have been a black man and not the white man we have seen in his portraits.
01:08:44.000There is no death of bizarre theories on the internet.
01:08:47.000The latest one to hop onto the bandwagon is none other than a theory about the greatest composer of all time, Ludwig van Beethoven.
01:08:53.000We all know Beethoven as the famous German composer and the mastermind behind several popular classical musical pieces like Fifth Symphony, Moonlight Sonata, among many others.
01:09:02.000According to a picture being circulated on the internet, Beethoven may have been a black man and not the white man we have seen in his portraits.
01:09:09.000Now I want to make absolutely clear, I really wouldn't care if he was, wasn't.
01:09:12.000I don't care if he was Chinese or Muslim or whatever.
01:10:10.000He wasn't a white guy, but he's portrayed as the whitest of whites.
01:10:14.000What's interesting is, especially with anime, that the characters... I was talking to somebody about this.
01:10:19.000There was a controversy over Ghost in the Shell when they did the live-action movie and they had Scarlett Johansson, a white woman, playing Motoko Kusanagi, I think I'm getting the name right, who is supposed to be a Japanese woman.
01:10:30.000And I was talking to people back when I worked at Fusion.
01:10:32.000I was like, actually, the whole show is about people with prosthetic bodies.
01:10:36.000Their brains are cyberized and downloaded into robot bodies.
01:10:39.000And so she could literally be anything.
01:10:41.000And one of the things I was reading about this was that I started thinking, why is it that in so many anime shows, there's blonde-haired, blue-eyed white people?
01:11:10.000Some of them, they do have white characters, they do have black characters.
01:11:14.000But it's white people who look at the art, and because the art is actually fairly ill-defined, like the facial features and the eyes, white people look at it and think, that looks like me.
01:11:24.000Japanese people look at it and say, that looks like me.
01:11:27.000So it's like, people assign their assumptions, their biases about what they look like to the thing they're seeing.
01:11:34.000So anyway, I thought that was rather interesting, especially in this context, that now, apparently, people want race to be the most important, prominent thing.
01:15:46.000Like, how is it not racist to get rid of all these figures that no one had issues with, especially when they were like, like, like, uh, what do I want to say?
01:15:56.000Like the, the first person to like rise and show, boom, look.
01:16:01.000Someone that rose from slavery and made it.
01:16:14.000Because if she achieved the American Dream, and the American Dream now is really, really bad, like, and we don't believe that anyone can achieve it, then why would you hold her up as a paradigm?
01:17:26.000The other guy told like, it was like, I'm not going to listen to you.
01:17:30.000I'm just going to beat him up and started beating him up.
01:17:32.000And it's like, See I can see I see now now that I've just heard him speak, you know today It was like that was the first time I've heard from his His own voice, you know, and I was like, all right.
01:17:44.000Like he's actually trying to make legitimate changes he's you know, it's man, I there's so much about it, but it's like he is not the the left's ideal person he's strong and Yeah.
01:18:17.000I didn't like this, you know, during Occupy Wall Street when they would, you know, and this is one thing I've brought up a lot.
01:18:21.000If I agree with them, then they use everything about my past as an excuse that's proof.
01:18:26.000And if I disagree with them, then they disregard my entire history.
01:18:30.000So during Occupy Wall Street, I would often have conversations with people, and if I agree with them, they would say things like, I remember one conversation I had where they were like, you see man, you are the perfect example of what's wrong with this system.
01:18:41.000You're smart, you're hardworking, you came down here, you're standing up for what you believe in, but because you come from a family that doesn't fit that norm, they will hold you back.
01:18:49.000And that's why you are, you know, you didn't succeed in school, and that's why you're here with us.
01:19:34.000When I was a high school dropout, sleeping in a park, with nothing, it was perfect for their narrative, for their social justice narrative.
01:19:43.000Yeah, you know, this country can't accept, you know, your families and true love.
01:19:46.000But then as soon as I was successful, You're white.
01:20:29.000You can't just walk up to a random person and punch them.
01:20:32.000As much as I get that feeling, I get really mad, really, really mad.
01:20:37.000Because I'll tell you what, I'm not going to name drop anybody, but I know some people who are Filipino, some people who are black, Mexican, and some of the smartest people, hardest working people, successful people.
01:20:47.000And like we mentioned, you know, you can go on Twitter and find some really, really great people of all different races that you will agree with, that you know are really smart.
01:20:54.000And then when I hear people say stupid stereotypes about people based on their race, the first thing that hits me is like, bro, you're talking about my friend right now.
01:21:12.000You wanna talk about, you know, criminals, burglars, whatever?
01:21:16.000Anybody from any race can be this thing.
01:21:18.000And we can rag on people for their behavior all day and night.
01:21:22.000But it's, man, it is, I have nothing but contempt and utter disdain.
01:21:28.000I've gotten into a lot of arguments with race realists, and I feel like they can't back their arguments up because these things are really, really difficult to prove.
01:21:39.000But what I can't stand is on one side of the coin you have the blank slate people.
01:21:45.000Everyone is completely the same and they're all developed by a construct.
01:25:08.000Without name-dropping anybody, I know some kids whose parents were very supportive and pushed them, particularly one individual who was black and became extremely successful.
01:25:19.000There are people in my neighborhood that's of all different races.
01:25:22.000So anyway, I don't want to go on a huge rant about this.
01:27:07.000It was him literally being like, you want to hang out?
01:27:10.000And then they would sit down and talk about rock and roll.
01:27:12.000And these guys were like, this dude's rad.
01:27:14.000And then he was saying that eventually these guys start to think about it, and they're like, hey man, these things I'm hearing don't represent my friend.
01:27:20.000And I don't like hearing these things.
01:27:29.000Even if you think the worst things about people, and you have assumptions, and you want to focus on certain issues, I just tell you, man, we have to learn to live together on this planet.
01:27:38.000Yes, we do. There's not going to be a situation where I mean, maybe China goes
01:27:42.000and just like, you know, purging people, but they're not going to win either.
01:27:45.000We're we all live on Earth. We're all humans.
01:27:47.000And I know it's I know it's silly because different cultures are, you know,
01:27:51.000can't overlap. They can't work together.
01:27:54.000Right. Like we are America and China, man.
01:27:57.000But I'll tell you what, China's way of life and the Chinese Communist Party's
01:28:02.000way of doing things cannot survive on this planet without them doing a truck
01:28:07.000But the American way of life welcomes all people.
01:28:11.000And there's problems, but we have to make sure we maintain that American culture first and foremost.
01:28:16.000And then under that umbrella of the American Constitution, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, everybody can thrive and be happy and learn to live together.
01:28:54.000Think of America, where we actively fight against it to the point where we have lunatics running through the streets thinking they're fighting, but they're making things worse.
01:29:42.000You know what I tell them is like, listen, a real future that incorporates a one world system, we call it Earth, and it's the Federation, and we travel the stars.
01:29:53.000That means you can't go and throw a pie in someone's face for being white.
01:29:57.000That means you can't start smearing and insulting white people.
01:30:00.000It means that even if you meet someone who's white who's a racist, you've got to sit down with them, and you've got to talk to them about why we're going to hang out, have a beer, have a slice of pizza, and then that's the end of it.
01:30:09.000You can't play this race tribalism game like they're playing.
01:30:49.000So Harumph I Say, the meme contest is live and running.
01:30:53.000Go to my Twitter feed, Adam Krigler dot, or yeah, at Adam Krigler on Twitter.
01:30:58.000Submit your meme using the Harumph I Say image that I provided.
01:31:04.000And there's some really amazing ones out there.
01:31:06.000I don't know if you've perused the meme contestants.
01:31:11.000But we're going to all discuss it tomorrow before the show and basically there's going to be one winner based on how many likes.
01:31:19.000So if you go and like whatever one you want, the winner with the most likes gets one of these delicious boards and then we are going to pick our personal favorites.
01:32:56.000It's a little more, I post more of like my personal pictures and then Twitter's more of just like my outspoken mind and reading what you guys have to say, so.
01:33:06.000With that being said, don't forget to smash the subscribe button.
01:34:34.000Travis says, two weeks ago the Atlanta DA used the justification that tasers were a deadly weapon in the charging of four of six officers with aggravated assault.
01:34:42.000See Donut Operator for the full breakdown.
01:36:08.000There's actually some pro skaters, I don't know if they're pro skaters, but some skaters on Instagram who have the Gadsden flag on their mini ramp.
01:36:15.000And I'm curious as to when someone's going to come for them.
01:36:27.000Travis Tolbert says, in the Rayshard Brooks case, the DA is quoted saying tasers are non-lethal weapons when asked if the officers should have feared for their lives in a CBS News interview.
01:37:06.000He talks about our show sometimes, your show.
01:37:12.000Basically just long threads about his opinions on it.
01:37:17.000Student of History says, I wonder if the media realizes that if Boog kicks off, they're literally on the top 10 list of groups for both sides.
01:37:25.000Also, I got my co-worker into y'all, and he can't stand Chapo Trap House.
01:38:19.000Podcastage says, what's the theory you've mentioned where you read one story, realize it's BS, but turn the page and think, oh, what a wonderful story.
01:40:21.000Nathan says, Adam, can you imagine a Magic the Gathering set with a Dragonlance crossover?
01:40:26.000I would love to see a black-red Raistlin planeswalker.
01:40:29.000I would highly recommend the Legends trilogy and the Raistlin Chronicles from Dragonlance.
01:40:33.000Well, no, they would start him as like a red planeswalker, and then they would release a different planeswalker later on, and he would be a black mage instead.
01:41:46.000The image is literally a white man with a pot of gold.
01:41:50.000And there's two black people he's handing the money to.
01:41:53.000And the card function is it's like it's like a math card.
01:41:57.000I wouldn't say it's completely worthless, but it's not that great.
01:42:00.000It just basically says whenever your opponent targets you or one of your creatures, you can draw a card.
01:42:06.000But the image is literally a blonde white man with his head down bowing to a bunch of money, and there's two black people that he's giving it to.
01:42:14.000This, in my opinion, is overtly racial.
01:42:18.000I wouldn't call it racist, but I know the left would.
01:44:47.000And then after you pass the written test, you have to do the, the, um, you know, the physical portion of it, where you walk up to the range and they make you fire and then they hand you your gun and they say, there you go.
01:46:54.000And I'm not saying that to praise Republicans.
01:46:56.000I think the Republicans literally are just sitting on their hands, so... Yeah, man, I'm from Chicago, and I was talking to someone I know from Chicago, and they were defending the Democrats, and I'm like, what is wrong with you, dude?
01:47:07.000Have you ever stopped to think about all the messed up stuff that we went through?
01:47:10.000Like, we once had the mayor come to our neighborhood and promise us all this great stuff, we raised all this money, and then they just left, got the photo op, and then just left us high and dry.
01:47:19.000Like, I'm not gonna get into the details of it, but I actually had a park call the cops on me after I was skating at a park I helped build.
01:47:27.000Like, I campaigned, and the mayor came down, and then as soon as he was gone, they were like, get out of here.
01:47:31.000And that was Chicago, and that was the Democrats.
01:47:34.000So the Republicans didn't mean anything to me.
01:48:40.000Mr. Wombat says, these dopes calling for dismantling of police should be careful.
01:48:44.000If they think fire and emergency medical services are responding to a scene not secured by law enforcement, they just might be in for a rude awakening.
01:48:50.000I can attest to this because my family, my dad was a firefighter, and I heard the stories from these guys.
01:48:56.000They pull up on an ambulance assist, and there's a guy bleeding out, and there's gangbangers in Chicago, and they got guns, and the EMTs and the firefighters are just sitting in their cars like, nope.
01:50:37.000Larry Goddard says, if Garrett Rolfe gets convicted of felony murder, I feel that there will be a mass resignation from every police officer across the country.
01:50:45.000What cop is going to want to respond to any call involving a young black man?
01:52:30.000Well, let's read some more Super Chats.
01:52:33.000Nava Down Under says Atlanta DA, according to the AJC, is under criminal investigation by the GBI for allegedly taking at least $140,000 in Atlanta taxpayer dollars to supplement his salary through his non-profit.
01:55:27.000A warning from Edward G. Griffin showing how communist countries use race destabilization to occupy police and National Guard with civil violence so that planned violence can occur.
01:57:04.000Saying that, you know, when we talked about nonviolent civil disobedience and all those things, they just used us because we promoted them enough to get them to a point where they could have actual cultural relevance.
01:57:25.000I think you've got a whole generation now of people.
01:57:28.000So the example I use as often is a friend of mine who used to be a really nice person who would sit down and talk with you, posting insane things that aren't true.
01:57:37.000And there is nothing you can do to show them a video.
01:57:40.000It's like, I have a video showing a man turn and point a weapon at an officer.
01:57:44.000And you can argue he still shouldn't have died, and that's a fair conversation.
01:57:59.000There was a protest between, it was like an Antifa versus Trump supporter thing.
01:58:04.000And when I walked over with my camera to the far left side, and I started asking people if they wanted an interview, one of the organizers started chanting, mic check, And then started chanting, do not talk to them.
01:59:08.000But I bring this up because earlier today, when the Dungeons and Dragons thing happened and the magic, I was like, you realize that whether I called you or not, you would be in all of this already.
01:59:18.000So what's crazy about that is how it's activating regular people who normally weren't involved in politics.
01:59:24.000Because if you'd be hanging out with your buddies playing Magic and all of a sudden all these cards ban for being racist, you'd be like, what?
02:00:22.000And you can hit me up and make a meme with the Harumph I Say graphic that I've got posted on the tweet and you can find it.
02:00:30.000We're gonna sign it and tomorrow we'll show you who won and we're gonna pick a winner and you can pick your own winner by liking whichever one you like the most on that post.
02:00:39.000And I'll give you some advice, at least as it pertains to the meme I may pick.
02:00:43.000The harumph I say thing that I do is a reference to the snooty elitists who are shocked when... You know what?
02:00:55.000So Family Guy did this joke, there's an 80s commercial I guess, where it's a bunch of rich people, and they're like, can you pass the Palmers all the fruit?
02:01:03.000And then they pass this jar, and then it finally comes to some like redneck guy and he goes, can you pass the jelly?
02:01:08.000And then they all faint and like, oh, and like the butler's fanning the woman.
02:01:13.000So Family Guy did a joke about that, and then they were like, they stop after the joke, and then Peter says, we realize that our viewers under 40 have no idea what the reference to this joke was, so let me explain it to you.
02:01:22.000And then they do a commentary on the joke, That's the harumph I say.
02:01:26.000Donald Trump is the guy saying, pass the jelly.
02:01:28.000And all of the snooty ivory tower people are going, oh, all fruit, all fruit to the jelly.
02:01:35.000So that's, so what I would be looking for in a good meme is the harumph I say alongside some kind of elitist shock.
02:01:43.000You know, whatever that might be, like them being hypocritical and like shocked that the peasants are rising up or resisting or rejecting the media or something like that.
02:01:51.000So should we, should we all pick our own favorites?
02:02:34.000Next week we're going to do the art contest.
02:02:37.000I'm saying we'll pick the winner next week for this one with the letter, simply because we need people to have time to actually mail something.
02:02:44.000Well, that's why I was going to say maybe not next week, because that'll be the art contest.
02:02:48.000By the way, I just started a new contest today, basically making some art about our show.
