On this episode of the TimCast, the guys discuss the recent case against a cop who was charged with felony murder in the case of Rayshard Brooks. Also, the Atlanta Police Department has gone on strike, and there are rumors that cops are walking off the job.
00:01:13.000It seems like they didn't watch the video.
00:01:15.000This is a really, really crazy story and there's rumors going around right now that the police are refusing to answer calls or walking off the job.
00:02:19.000I'll tell you what though, I got a lot of problems with a lot of cops right now, especially after the COVID stuff and the, like in Jersey near us, the unconstitutional enforcement against small business owners.
00:02:30.000So I'll tell you what, like we were saying this before, a lot of cops lost a lot of goodwill from people.
00:04:08.000My thoughts on the matter is, what if, and this is just fun speculation, everything we're seeing from the riots in the streets to what China's doing is the pieces being lined up for an international war.
00:05:13.000Well, our cities are like, what, half our population.
00:05:16.000And that means if we went to war, they could easily just taint our water supplies in our big cities and disable half the country, half our economy.
00:05:23.000Or hack it somehow, hack the water sources.
00:08:23.000But also, feel free to get in your superchats.
00:08:26.000Now, we can't read every single superchat, but if you want to, you know, support the channel, the superchats support the channel, and we will read as many as we can.
00:10:40.000When New York said, we are not going to criminally charge the Black Lives Matter protesters, but if you go to church, we're coming for you.
00:11:23.000That eventually you will end up with them throwing people to Antifa.
00:11:28.000That someone will be accused of something and they'll just say, well, it's easier to deal with throwing this one person under the bus than dealing with the mob.
00:11:35.000So, when they showed up to Cassandra's house, for those who aren't familiar, Cassandra Fairbanks, conservative journalist, they showed up to her house, banging on her windows, firing fireworks, I said, it was funny because I was like, at a certain point, they'll dox you, they dox Cassandra, and after that I'm like, well, you know, at some point someone will show up at her house, we don't know when that'll happen, it was that day.
00:11:55.000Then they had this guy in Minnesota, Chauvin, and they hand him over to Keith Ellison, who's Antifa, whose kid is, and I'm like, you see?
00:12:06.000Now this guy is getting charged, and they're giving him to this Antifa-aligned guy, who's gonna overcharge him, because he wants, I don't know what he wants.
00:12:15.000Yeah, overcharging, the guy gets off and they say, how did he get, you know, acquitted because you overcharged?
00:12:21.000But I did not expect that in the span of like a week or two, they would be in Atlanta, taking a guy who had, you know, for the most part, a regrettable and unfortunate but clean, you know, use of force, and put him in the position where he could face the death penalty.
00:12:37.000That is them saying straight up, we don't care about the law, we don't care about what's written down, we don't care about the Constitution, if there's a mob and they're mad, we will burn you.
00:12:49.000FIRED ATLANTA OFFICER CHARGED WITH MURDER IN RAYSHARD BROOKS SHOOTING.
00:12:52.000THE FORMER ATLANTA POLICE OFFICER WHO FATALLY SHOT A BLACK MAN AS HE RAN AWAY WITH THE OFFICER'S TASER, COMMA, AND FIRED IT AT HIM, LAST WEEK, HAS BEEN CHARGED WITH MURDER.
00:13:00.000FULTON COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY PAUL HOWARD ANNOUNCED WEDNESDAY.
00:13:04.000GARRETT ROLFE, WHO WAS FIRED AFTER THE KILLING OF 27-YEAR-OLD RAYSHARD BROOKS, FACES 11 CRIMINAL CHARGES INCLUDING FELONY MURDER.
00:13:10.000IF CONVICTED OF THE MURDER CHARGE, ROLFE COULD FACE THE DEATH PENALTY OR LIFE IN PRISON WITHOUT PAROLE.
00:13:18.000Howard, speaking to reporters Wednesday, said prosecutors reviewed eight videos of the shooting and spoke with ten witnesses and determined that Brooks did not pose an immediate threat of death or serious physical injury to the officers.
00:13:30.000The district attorney said the officers failed to provide timely medical attention to Brooks for two minutes after he was shot, and that Rolfe kicked Brooks as he was lying on the ground, fighting for his life.
00:14:03.000Look, they're accusing this guy of kicking him, and there's a photo that came out where his leg is bent, and I'm like, come on, show me a video footage of this.
00:14:11.000Show me video footage proving he kicked the guy when he was down.
00:15:32.000Apparently felony murder, and I'm hearing this from a lawyer on Twitter, so for all I know it's wrong, but what some people have said is, felony murder is reserved for in the commission of a felony, you kill someone.
00:15:45.000What crime was this officer committing by trying to arrest a guy who was in his car drunk, engine running, in a drive-thru lane?
00:17:12.000I've seen some analogies about an unappointed council of people with supreme law authority to go around on military excursions with powerful weapons.
00:19:35.000So, what if I came out and was like, you know, we gotta get rid of the UFO because, you know, some people, you know, we just think it's kind of a bad representation.
00:19:50.000Blue Flu Mike Cernovich tweets, if you're an Atlanta police officer who shows up for work, you are a coward who co-signed that press conference.
00:20:00.000You know, I gotta say, I'll tell you what.
00:22:20.000When I was sitting in my apartment in Chicago and the cops kicked my door and at gunpoint came to me and my three friends while we were playing GTA, what did we do?
00:22:38.000But I'll tell you what, my complaints over having negative experience with the cops, my complaints over the cops who are enforcing unconstitutional decrees from their governors, is irrelevant to the conversation about whether or not we need police.
00:23:56.000And then I looked up and he was Deadlocked with me, and I'm like what's going on here, and you know what he did He looked me right in the eye, and he stepped on my shoe the new shoe, and I was like wow okay, I Had what am I gonna?
00:24:09.000Do you know fight you know, but I would have I don't know I don't know what I would have done, but it's crazy look man people are there's crazy people out there I've had I've had bad experience with cops, but I think it this way I When the cops kicked my door in, without a warrant, and came into my apartment with me and my friends, with their guns drawn, saying, they were asking for some guy, and we're like, who?
00:24:31.000Like, what are you talking about, dude?
00:24:34.000And we were like, we moved in here a couple months ago.
00:24:37.000If you came to me and said you were gonna put those guys up for the death penalty or 20 years in prison, I'd be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, dude.
00:25:16.000You don't think that they could have gotten in their car, and followed him, and been like, dude, we know where you live, he's been arrested for a DUI, like, they could have... Nope.
00:27:29.000And then you watch one of those cops, with his hand covered in blood, struggle to climb
00:27:34.000over a guardrail and roll to get to what's called dead ground at an angle where he can't
00:27:39.000And this guy leans over his car, still shooting at the cops, gets in his car and fires out the back window several times and then speeds off.
00:27:46.000You see videos like this, this is what, every single cop, when they're getting trained, sees this kind of stuff and they're like, this is worst case scenario.
00:27:56.000You need to prepare for worst case scenario because any situation can go into a worst case scenario.
00:28:03.000And it's like, okay, that makes sense.
00:28:48.000There is a real question about when, the difficulty is if the cop really was scared for their life and we asked them to enter a situation where they could be put in harm's way and they overreact and panic, can we really hold them criminally liable for being scared And kind of pathetic.
00:29:05.000It's a hard question, but it typically leans towards the no.
00:29:09.000Like, when it came to Philando Castile, right?
00:29:40.000All these people that are saying they shouldn't do this, they should blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:29:45.000None of them knows what it's like to be a cop.
00:29:49.000None of them to be in their shoes and deal with this kind of stuff where anything can happen that you can even a knife a knife is is is even more deadly because you don't even see it coming right you know it's like not just they don't know who knows but as soon as you start resisting and fighting them like their minds instantly get well pumped with adrenaline because they suddenly are going from you know on edge to actually fighting like who knows Oh man, this shit gets me, sorry.
00:30:19.000Mythbusters did a video on bringing a knife to a gunfight and they found that an average person, notably themselves who are like middle-aged and overweight dudes, a knife is more deadly than a gun.
00:33:37.000As much as people don't want to accept it, when the cops say you're under arrest, you put your hands behind your back and you shut your mouth.
00:33:44.000Rayshard Brooks should have shut his mouth.
00:34:07.000So, depending on the jurisdiction, I don't know how Atlanta works, but I think in Illinois, if you refuse field sobriety and a breathalyzer, they can arrest you and then force a breathalyzer at the station.
00:36:15.000They're like, man, you gotta understand when they watch videos all day every day of cops killing people, they get scared and they run for it and they resist.
00:36:22.000It's like, what are you talking about?
00:36:23.000The videos are them getting killed for resisting.
00:36:26.000Like, look, not every single video, but I'll tell you what, we do have a big problem, and it's social media.
00:36:34.000These cops who watched this one video, and then they assume it could happen to me, it's like, bro, there's 375 million interactions in New York, according to the NYPD union, and almost all of them positive.
00:36:44.000Don't assume that guy's gonna shoot you.
00:39:14.000No, because there are cops that are going, if we leave, then we're gonna have the whole, it's their town, it's their city, they probably love it.
00:39:53.000Well, they need to have a conversation then about why two thirds, why three quarters of them are walking, half of them, sorry, half of them are walking off the entire shift.
00:40:02.000Well, I mean, obviously there's a huge issue.
00:40:22.000I agree that there's probably a political difference between the cops, and you can't tell who's a coward or who's a chicken just because some want to stay.
00:40:29.000But I do think the ones staying are making a huge mistake.
00:40:32.000Notably because the left wants you gone, and the right wants you to stand up for yourself.
00:41:26.000How much of this might just be a bunch of people on Twitter all hooting at each other and high-fiving each other about what's going on, and meanwhile the Atlanta PD are sitting there like, we're doing our jobs, what are you talking about?
00:41:34.000But the Seth Weathers guy says he's got it confirmed.
00:44:41.000So, uh, we do have, we do have like bigger stories that extend beyond just what's happening in Atlanta that we definitely need to talk about.
00:44:48.000So I'd love to talk about Atlanta all night, but we got war.
00:44:52.000Now, before we get started on this segment, smash that like button!
00:45:42.000But now we got some international conflict and crisis.
00:45:45.000And I do think this, in my personal opinion, there's an interesting conversation around how the conflict with India and China overlaps with what we're seeing in our cities with the police and the riots.
00:45:55.000So I'll just give you the straight up speculation.
00:46:00.000I've said it, we're on the brink of war with China.
00:46:02.000We've had destroyers going to the South China Sea.
00:46:04.000We've had China threatening us, us threatening back.
00:46:07.000China doing like beaching trainings with Taiwan, you know, not with Taiwan, but doing beaching trainings and, you know, escalating tensions with Taiwan.
00:46:35.000And my idea earlier on is just, if we do enter a war with China and people are fleeing the cities, which they are, and then you have people buying guns like crazy, which they are, I mean, we're going to be in a pretty good position relative to where we were.
00:46:50.000If we go to war with China, China could easily just be like, I'll put a drop of this polonium in the water and whole city's gone.
00:46:56.000I think it would be more like they would hack our systems, you know, shut the reactors down or the water system, make it backfire, blow pipes, so that entire cities would just not have any water.
00:47:09.000But now we've got tons of people fleeing cities, distributing themselves about the country, so it'll be harder to hit any single point and cripple our economy in the event of a full-on war.
00:48:01.000It says, though Beijing won't confirm it, these are the first combat deaths on the border since 1975.
00:48:07.000China blamed India for carrying out provocative attacks, leading to serious physical conflicts in a snow-covered West Himalayas.
00:48:15.000But Beijing is the one who's been pushing for weeks, impinging on territory it hasn't actively claimed for decades, supposedly because Delhi has modernized the highway that runs along its side of the line.
00:48:28.000Now, that's that's that's very accurate.
00:48:45.000India basically hasn't been until recently.
00:48:49.000So now they're like starting to build infrastructure in this area, you know, and China's already overstepped their grounds.
00:48:56.000So India's like, hey, this is our, this is our territory back off.
00:49:01.000and uh it it's basically reaching ahead now it's like they're they're finally coming to blows over this this push push back and forth and it is it's pretty crazy it was a battle in the night it was nighttime they didn't know who like you know they were fighting with throwing rocks they were they were they had sticks it wasn't it wasn't like a gun battle it was like a mountain side Skirmish?
00:49:42.000Well, yeah, I guess rocks with sticks.
00:49:46.000I did read once somewhere, I don't know if this is confirmed, but they were like wrapping barbed wire on some sticks and using them to fight.
00:51:09.000The one time, maybe not the one time, but one of the times the media is actually praising Trump, when he fired 59 Tomahawk missiles at Syria.
00:51:17.000And everybody, all the libertarian types, from like, you know, anti-war left to like, you know, libertarian right, were all collectively laughing.
00:51:25.000Like, we knew that as soon as Trump went warmonger, the media would be like, what a great president.
00:53:20.000Man, if China goes, if they are pushing over and they, they want to starve out India, if they think India is actually one of the threats, taking one of the main water sources away is a huge deal.
00:57:40.000But what's messed up about it is like, Man, the jokes write themselves.
00:57:44.000Did you know that before they pulled Aunt Jemima, eight hours before they announced they were cancelling Aunt Jemima, The Onion wrote an article saying Aunt Jemima was cancelled.
00:57:55.000Wait, that was a... Seriously, that's the way it happened?
00:57:58.000Eight hours before Quaker announced pulling Aunt Jemima, The Onion had published an article saying they were replacing Aunt Jemima with a less offensive character or something.
00:58:53.000yep we'll see we'll see all right onion don't don't write the article do it don't do it no i bought this i bought a bunch of uh oh man a bunch of movies you did yeah in preparation this is one of them and and uh ian and i bought a bunch of magic cards we think are about to get banned Man.
00:59:12.000It was rated the most complex game ever.
00:59:13.000magic card fiasco that to me is the most shocking because it's like you have one
00:59:17.000of the most popular games in the planet one of the most complicated strategy
00:59:19.000games yep what it was it was rated the most complex game ever like chess on
00:59:25.000steroids yeah I don't know we're talking about it's this magic magic the
01:00:33.000He comes to me and he's like, bro, they're gonna ban all of these cards look and he starts telling me like look at these cards and I'm like these cards are all racist.
01:01:04.000When they started declaring that art and game function was racist, they banned Crusade because it shows Templar knights in ones like Raising a Sword, and it says all white creatures get plus one strength, plus one, you know, defense or whatever.
01:01:19.000I'm trying to simplify the game for those that aren't familiar.
01:01:21.000And I guess because it makes white creatures stronger, that's racist.
01:01:26.000So there's another card called Cleanse that says all black creatures are destroyed.
01:01:42.000So when wizards banned this card because it destroyed all black creatures, immediately people pointed out another card called Virtue's Ruin.
01:02:30.000Yeah, so the funny thing about the Aunt Jemima stuff is, because we were talking about this a little earlier, I don't care if they ban Aunt Jemima.
01:02:35.000It's a brand for a company, and if they're like, it's not going to help me sell a product, I get it.
01:02:40.000Now, what I don't like is when, you know, companies pander by actively trying to engage in some kind of activist thing.
01:02:49.000changing their mascot to to adhere to a more modern whatever whatever dude whatever but a lot of people kept saying Uncle Ben was next and sure enough I'm gonna pull up this this card that I found I posted on Twitter we were talking about it the other day but I have it here what's it called Oh no, this one's so racist, bro.
01:04:29.000Depending on who you ask, consult an expert on folklore and mythology, but my general understanding is it's a reference to, in ancient civilizations, humans knew the day was good.
01:04:41.000It was warm, it was safe, you could see the crops grew.
01:06:18.000And they're like, here's the thing about a lot of games.
01:06:23.000If there was a game where it had, like, one character... Like, let's say you're playing Fallout 3, and one of the characters in the game is deemed racist.
01:07:30.000So this one card, for those that aren't familiar, literally had something to do with the colors of the creatures you have versus the color of the creatures your opponents have.
01:10:20.000Think about the absurdity of the woke cult saying that it's unfair that someone had access to an education.
01:10:27.000And it's like, okay, If I know how to do a backflip and you don't, you're arguing that my privilege in being taught to do a backflip means that I have to be knocked on a peg or two.
01:11:09.000It's like a new thing they invented a few years ago because they replaced racism with some kind of like... You know, they basically said that racism is prejudice plus power.
01:11:17.000And thus, by changing the definition of racism, they had no word for racism.
01:11:34.000But they're doing it to change the laws surreptitiously, like the Supreme Court just did.
01:11:40.000So if biological sex doesn't exist, or gender is no longer biological sex, then any legal depiction mentioning the word gender has just changed its definition.
01:11:53.000Yeah, the crazy thing about the Supreme Court ruling Was that some conservatives are saying legislators in Congress will no longer understand how they're drafting law if they understand that in the future definitions of words will change.
01:12:07.000Therefore, the meaning of the law is irrelevant.
01:12:10.000That means you could literally lead a campaign to change the definition of a word as a joke, and then all of a sudden you have like, I don't know, weird laws.
01:12:18.000Like, I don't know, it actually says in the 1964 Civil Rights Act that you can't discriminate on the basis of color.
01:14:45.000You know, one of the craziest things is, in 2015, a 62-year-old, I think he's 62, black guy in California started a non-profit called the Black Lives Matter Foundation.
01:14:55.000And now that they're trying to start the global network, an actual foundation from high-profile activists, they were shocked to discover somebody has already got the name.
01:15:45.000The majority that we're talking about, this like, this other group of I think, you know, 35 to 40 percent of people, don't care about anything.
01:20:06.000Right, but the actual situation was, could have been violent, or?
01:20:11.000So, like, let's say somebody had a gun, and was, you know, a drug, they were slinging drugs, and they had a gun, and then they ran for it, and they were armed, and then, like, you know, stole someone's car or something.
01:20:20.000Well, I guess that's, I guess that's violent.
01:20:24.000And then they say something like, the cops say, okay, you stole a car, you know, at gunpoint, but if you tell us where you got the weed, we'll drop you down to possession and distribution.
01:20:36.000And now they're on the books as just possession and distribution, and then they get released because of that, and they're actually violent offenders.
01:20:41.000But they helped bring down, they snitched, basically.
01:20:46.000It's just an issue of, there's a lot of cases where, like, Somebody may have been, you know, selling drugs and then robs a drug dealer and then the cops are like, we're going to get them on the drug charges.
01:20:57.000It's going to be difficult to prove because the victims are other criminals who won't plead down to it.
01:21:03.000However, I still lean towards, I don't like the idea of a justice system that plays the game of the trial tax.
01:21:17.000The problem with that is, because I've had it used against me before, so when I was, I got a false speeding ticket, cop pulled me over, I wasn't speeding, gave me a ticket.
01:21:26.000Long story short, I didn't know anything about how the law worked, I was like 19 or so, and my sister paid the ticket for me, and as soon as that happened, it immediately suspended my license.
01:21:35.000I received nothing in the mail, had no idea it even happened.
01:21:38.000Ticket was paid, I had my license, I was fine, right?
01:21:40.000Then I'm driving and I get pulled over and I get told I'm driving on a suspended license and that now I'm under arrest.
01:21:47.000They did something in Illinois called an I-bond where they immediately arrest me and then release me on the spot.
01:23:09.000I was like, I didn't do anything wrong, the guy told me he was going to put me in jail for a year.
01:23:13.000And the judge goes, get a lawyer and come back.
01:23:16.000And then the lawyer told me, I called the lawyer, I had to pay off the palace money, and he said, just plead guilty, it's the only thing you can do.
01:24:43.000He's going to, it's going to be like a month out and he's going to be like, I sat down with some top advisors, criminal reform, and we've decided to do a, an executive order releasing the overwhelming majority of inmates on nonviolent drug related offenses.
01:25:14.000If somebody wants to do a drug or they're addicted, let them go somewhere to get cheap, effective, and clean treatment to help them better their lives.
01:25:22.000That's a government program I can get behind.
01:26:04.000And so there have been people trying to campaign to reduce the drinking age back to 18 because you have people who are literally adults living on their own who can't drink beer like everyone else, but they will!
01:26:15.000And then they have no chance to go to the hospital out of fear of breaking the law.
01:26:47.000So let me just wrap up this one thought and I'll tell you how crazy this story is.
01:26:50.000But if we had even private facilities that controlled the use of any drug, then you have someone come in, they're not going to OD because you've measured, you've calculated, and you've got someone watching and making sure they're doing all right.
01:27:13.000Like, this is what I've said, when they banned Sargon of Akkad from Patreon, I'm like, Patreon could have actually went to him and said, promise us you won't say this word again, you're good.
01:27:20.000And he would have been like, you got it, no problem.
01:27:22.000Instead, they were like, we're banning you outright with no recourse.
01:28:01.000But there was one dude in my neighborhood who was...
01:28:06.000He was always working. He worked at a fast-food restaurant, and he always worked late shifts
01:28:11.000Just always worked people would hit him up. Hey, can you come over now? I'm working and be like you sure man
01:28:16.000We're gonna go out and we're gonna go to party. He's like no
01:28:18.000I'm working till like 1 in the morning because he worked at a Taco Bell. Okay, so one day
01:28:21.000For no reason he goes to his boss, and he says I'm not feeling good
01:28:27.000I feel I just I gotta go home man. I'm not feeling good and And the boss was like, you sure?
01:28:32.000Like, you always work extra shifts, you always pick up late hours.
01:28:35.000Hey man, look, if, you know, whenever I've needed your help, you've always picked up shifts, so if you need to take some time off right now for whatever reason, just go.
01:28:43.000Really, really strange, in the middle of his shift, he just said, I gotta leave, I don't feel good.
01:31:15.000And some people took it to a dark place, and to me it was like, nah, they hit him up and they were like, we're gonna score, you wanna come by?
01:34:21.000To go back to that story, because I did mention maybe it was embellished, I think it happened, but I think people are looking deeper into it because they want to have some meaning or they want to believe.
01:34:34.000They want to believe that everything's going to be okay.
01:34:37.000People are scared of dying for obvious reasons, like everything that's alive for the most part.
01:38:10.000So a lot of these instances, if we're dealing with state line crossings and stuff like that, then perhaps Trump would need to send in federal law enforcement.
01:38:18.000If it comes to the overt rioting that won't stop, then I don't know if the Insurrection Act is the right move.
01:38:23.000I tweeted about Trump needing to, you know, to get up and do something.
01:38:26.000And a lot of people were claiming that I was calling for the military.
01:38:28.000I'm like, no, I'm saying he should do something.
01:38:30.000Because he gave up and he made one statement about the Insurrection Act and nothing really happened.
01:38:35.000He did the police reform thing, and I'm like, OK, OK, all right.
01:38:52.000That's true. So he did do something. Right, exactly. And that's why I'm like, I was like, what's he doing?
01:38:56.000And then he did something. I'm like, all right, that's it.
01:38:58.000Like what I want to say like he did something.
01:38:59.000Yeah, a lot of people weren't happy because they said that he was capitulating that it was like, here's police reform.
01:39:05.000But I think that if you have someone who's gonna enact real leadership, it's not gonna be in favor of just one faction.
01:39:12.000He's got to find something that can actually be, you know, amicable for both sides.
01:39:15.000And so he tried to find a way to defend police and respect them while also implementing a program that could, you know, that could actually, I actually think the police reform thing had some really good ideas.
01:39:26.000The idea being that police departments will be eligible for grants if they adhere to certain guidelines is a positive.
01:41:55.000But one of the things I absolutely love about how YouTube's ads work is that I have nothing to do with the advertisements that appear on my channel.
01:43:21.000If Joe Biden came to me and said, oh, Tim, we want to give you the money for the, you know, the, you know, the thing on the YouTube, I'd be like, I am not going to read a positive message about Joe Biden.
01:43:35.000However, I still get those sweet, sweet Biden bucks because he wants to run his ads on my videos where then you get to listen to the ad and then I get to say something like Joe Biden is demented and is out of his mind and you would be nuts to vote for him.
01:43:56.000Ads were appearing on my channel, and Bloomberg!
01:43:59.000And I'm like... Oh yeah, I remember this.
01:44:00.000Look man, if Bloomberg... First of all, if Bloomberg wants to put his ad on my video, I like the idea that people will get a counterpoint to what I'm about to say.
01:45:15.000Because then the rest of the country will get a cold wake up call to what happens when the cops are like, you don't want us, you don't need us.
01:47:55.000So, I went to a favela, it's a shanty, it's Brazilian shanty towns, and I was talking to, like, a mother, and they couldn't flush their toilets.
01:48:25.000So it was like, Occupy was mostly over, but it was still kind of, you know, flickering here and there.
01:48:29.000And she was like, she asked the question, the translator who then asked me, she's like, oh, she says, why are the rich people in America protesting?
01:48:36.000And I was like, there's no rich people in America protesting, what do you mean?
01:48:39.000And then he asked her, and then she mentions Occupy Wall Street.
01:48:43.000And he goes, she's talking about Occupy Wall Street.
01:48:45.000And I said, no, I mean, the Occupy Wall Street people are like college kids, and people who are upset about the financial collapse, and they're like, they're young.
01:48:53.000And then I was like, it's not the rich people, the rich people are the ones they're protesting against.
01:48:57.000And then he tells her this, she starts laughing, says something, and he goes, she says, all Americans are rich.
01:49:03.000I'm like, standing here in this shantytown where they can't flush a toilet, and I'm like, uh-huh.
01:50:24.000It's funny, I imagine someone living in a small town where their factory closed and they make very little money and they're poor, in a trailer for instance, and they look to the news and it's a bunch of rich trust fund kids in New York protesting and you have to be like, what are they doing?
01:52:17.000Or a wacky, wild, inflatable, arm-waving... I can't do it.
01:52:21.000How about it's a person, but they're wearing a giant cardboard box over their body and a cardboard over their head, but you can see their feet wearing shoes, so you can't tell if it's a man or a woman.
01:52:56.000Carnell says, hey Tim, did you hear a Chazz community member defended theft after a citizen reported his computer, food supplies, and $400 stolen?
01:53:03.000It was claimed to be considered as an unplanned donation to the Chazz.
01:53:56.000And then it became a huge meme that was ridiculous where, yeah, he was like, I'm being beaten by a bunch of, you know, gangbangers, but they probably are happier to beat me than I am sad to get beaten.
01:59:09.000Well, the problem with that is these activists are ideologues.
01:59:15.000And so then they're gonna start selectively enforcing things like they want to.
01:59:18.000That's why it's like, maybe they shouldn't be cops, you know what I mean?
01:59:22.000I don't think that's the people I'm talking to.
01:59:25.000I don't think those are the people that will ever think so, because those are the people that believe everything should just be done for them.
02:00:22.000And there was, uh, Alexis Ohanian gave an interview where he's the co-founder of Reddit, where he said when he was in college, a cop came up to him while he was drunk and high and, you know, checked on him and said he was drunk and then said something like, you're lucky those keys aren't in the ignition, buddy.
02:00:38.000Go back to sleep or whatever and walked away.
02:00:40.000And he's like, and that's because of my privilege, blah, blah, blah.
02:00:42.000It's like, Are you trying to compare the fact that you were sleeping in your car, keys out of the ignition, and a cop was like, eh, later, to a guy who fought with the cops, who was on probation, and then stole their weapon and fired at him and ran?
02:00:52.000Who actually, car was on, in the drive-thru, so he drove there.
02:01:13.000I'm swerving, so I pull off the road, and I'm like, I'm gonna go to sleep just for a little bit right here so I can make it home, because I had to wake up again in, like, four hours and go back to work.
02:03:03.000Like, I don't know what else to say, you know what I mean?
02:03:05.000But the problem, and I've explained this several times, is that the current iteration of what the left is, is uninterested in actually having a real conversation about these issues, and they want to attack people on tribal lines and ban art.
02:03:16.000And so here's what it really comes down to.
02:03:18.000When my friend posts on Instagram, this man was executed while sleeping in his car.
02:03:23.000I can't talk to them. I send a message back, here's the news story of what actually happened,
02:03:28.000and they completely ignore it. These people are zombies.
02:04:51.000Listen, my issue is like, I think there's a ton of things that have happened throughout history that have created racial inequities and inequalities that we can solve, but I don't think you solve it by insulting people based on their race, attacking white people, or forcing them to do anything.
02:05:04.000I think we solve it by saying, like, hey, would you like to, like, here's a left libertarian.
02:05:09.000I show up to your house in a little bucket and I'm like, Hey, I want to help out some kids go to school.
02:05:29.000So I think if you look at whatever is going on right now, the left is dominated by authoritarians who want to force you to do things.
02:05:37.000And if you look at people like Dave Rubin, who was, you know, he was a liberal, now he's more libertarian, more libertarian, right?
02:05:42.000I think you look at the politically homeless, the intellectual dark web, there are progressives in that bunch, but they're all very libertarian, respecting people's ideas, having intellectual conversation.
02:05:52.000And that's, that's what the difference between everybody is.
