In this episode of the TimCast, we talk about a bunch of interesting stories, including the evacuation of the USS Theodore Roosevelt and the possible start of World War III, as well as some interesting stories about a woman who pooped in bed with Johnny Depp.
00:00:24.000We got a couple really interesting stories.
00:00:27.000The first one, it's actually a bunch of stories having to do with the aircraft carrier, the Theodore Roosevelt, the evacuation of the sailors on the ship.
00:01:05.000But also, they're saying that, I have this story, I didn't actually read it, but they're saying the dude got fired from the aircraft carrier for lying about their position.
00:01:43.000Women might get drafted now because the final verdict was that women should have to draft, but that's more to do with, you know, we'll talk about potential for war and stuff.
00:01:52.000Then we've got this experimental coronavirus treatment.
00:01:55.000They're actually extracting people's blood, oxygenating it, putting it back.
00:02:35.000So the next study they're doing, because of course, no matter what happens, some researchers are going to come out and be like, it's worse than everyone thought.
00:02:42.000They're saying social distancing may be needed until 2022.
00:03:49.000Johnny Depp's fans, the latest update is that Johnny Depp's fans want her to face jail time after a video surfaced showing prominent bruise.
00:03:59.000So, look, she reportedly pooped in his bed.
00:04:47.000It's been so long, but there was, like, Frank and Charlie wake up, and it's the episode Who Pooped the Bed, and they're both accusing each other of having done it.
00:04:55.000I wonder if, like, Amber Heard accidentally did it, and then, like, tried, like, she was embarrassed, so she had to pretend like she did it on purpose.
00:05:02.000Well, I guess it, was it above the sheets or below the sheets?
00:06:21.000Now, the way I see this is, I think everybody wants to be very careful about how they phrase things.
00:06:27.000And I'm obviously way over the top in my title, like, it's the end!
00:06:31.000Literally just a boat passing by and people wave to each other.
00:06:34.000But there's escalating tensions that have been going on for a really long time, especially in the South China Sea.
00:06:40.000And it's not just physical war, it's cultural war.
00:06:43.000I can't remember what movie it was, I think this was like a Pixar film.
00:06:45.000It was like a viral thing where, like, a little girl walks past a map, and then the map shows the South China Sea has dotted lines around it, which is China's claim to the South China Sea, and it was in, like, a Disney film.
00:07:03.000Because they were using Chinese animators, and so they were like, China says ours!
00:07:08.000So it's, this is what people have to understand about the moves that are happening in this region, that they lasered us, you know, apparently like showing they have us locked on target or whatever.
00:07:17.000They sank a fishing vessel, they've been doing that.
00:07:26.000So I mean, tensions are there, and now with the US, Theodore Roosevelt evacuating all of these personnel because of COVID, and the tensions with the, you know, the commander of the ship or the captain or whatever, you know there's these are all moves meant to like poke and
00:07:40.000prod. So this is the story right they say that China sends an aircraft carrier you got to
00:07:44.000understand at least as far as I can tell and I'm not you know I'm not like an expert on what China
00:08:14.000They say Japan and Taiwan kept watch on the Chinese aircraft carrier Liaoning and its strike group as they streamed through the Miyako Strait and passed Taiwan over the weekend, according to the Japanese Ministry of Defense and published reports Monday.
00:08:29.000The Liaoning and five accompanying warships passed through the 155-mile-wide strait halfway between the Japanese islands of Okinawa and Miyako on Saturday.
00:08:39.000Turned south and passed east of Taiwan on Sunday, according to reports.
00:08:43.000The strait is wide enough to qualify as an international waterway.
00:08:47.000The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force tracked the Chinese aircraft carrier, two guided-missile destroyers, two multi-role warships, and one supply-class fast-combat support ship as they passed 262 miles southwest of Nagasaki's Danjou Islands about 7 p.m.
00:09:04.000Friday, according to a Defense Ministry Joint Staff official.
00:09:08.000Whoa, that's more than just a one aircraft carrier that I thought it was.
00:09:25.000I've read into this, and I don't know if it was a response to this.
00:09:29.000I mean, that does make sense timing-wise, but it also makes sense that they had to take everything off the ship because the ship was coronavirused, basically.
00:09:38.000They got it, so they had to, like, take everything off.
00:10:10.000Because then the third party nearby is gonna freak out and fire a missile and then all of a sudden everyone's firing missiles and then everyone's lost their minds.
00:10:16.000Well I guess the fight wouldn't happen because they would just knock each other out head butt and eyes.
00:10:20.000No but it would be like two guys flinching at each other but with like 30 guys behind them gearing up to fight and then when they both get hit the other people have no idea who hit who so they go ahhh and they start swinging and punching each other.
00:10:39.000Saturday, the carrier and its group streamed through the strait, according to the official.
00:10:42.000Some Japanese government spokespersons traditionally speak under the condition of anonymity.
00:10:46.000We continuously checked those ships by sea and air, the official said.
00:10:50.000The Taiwanese Navy also sent ships from Suao to monitor the strike group as it passed the island on Sunday, according to the South China Morning Post, which cited the Taiwan Ministry of Defense.
00:11:01.000The six vessels sailed east of Taiwan, according to the Japanese outlet Sankei News, which also cited the Taiwan Defense Ministry.
00:11:09.000The Liaoning is the only aircraft carrier currently in the Western Pacific.
00:11:13.000However, the USS America, a smaller amphibious assault ship that carries F-35B Lightning II stealth fighters, is underway in the East China Sea, according to its official Facebook page.
00:11:26.000Okay, they announced on Facebook, we're heading there to the sea.
00:13:51.000They say the positive cases aboard the Roosevelt account for more than half of the total 890 sailors who have tested positive for the virus across the Navy.
00:13:59.000Meanwhile, the Reagan, undergoing maintenance in its home port of Yokosuka Naval Base since November, is preparing for deployment.
00:14:05.000Officials with Task Force 70, the battle force of the 7th Fleet, in a post Sunday to its official Facebook page said sailors of the task force are undergoing 14 days of sequestration prior to departing on patrol.
00:14:17.000More than 1,000 sailors assigned to the Regan and its accompanying strike group were bussed to Yokota Air Base and Naval Air Facility Atsugi over four days last week to sequester themselves prior to deployment, according to the Task Force 70 post.
00:14:31.000So, the other thing we're seeing here...
00:15:45.000And since then we've developed intercontinental ballistic missiles and multiple independently targeting reentry vehicles with multiple warheads.
00:15:52.000But we made this, it's a megaton bomb and it was really, really small.
00:15:57.000So I'd imagine These bombers have... I don't know.
00:16:06.000If you came to me and said, Tim, here's a press report saying they don't have any nuclear gravity bomb capabilities, I'd be like, I don't believe you.
00:17:29.000So if their numbers are legit, like China says, we only have 2,000 who have died because they're authoritarian lockdown and they barricaded people in their homes.
00:17:38.000I don't believe them, but... Do the deaths that happen from barricading people in, do you think that that should be considered a coronavirus death, even though they don't die from coronavirus?
00:17:48.000Because they're opening the doors and people are dead, right?
00:17:51.000That's the issue with the authoritarian communist countries.
00:17:54.000They'll be like, these are not coronavirus dead, we killed them!
00:18:41.000funding for the World Health Organization, accusing it of accelerating the pandemic by opposing his partial ban on travel from China and putting political correctiveness above life-saving.
00:18:52.000That's interesting, because throughout all of this, the WHO does seem to be a puppet of China.
00:21:28.000They're pushing us because they think they're strong.
00:21:31.000And so they're like, dude, they have been pushing on the South China Sea for a long time and no one has done anything about it.
00:21:38.000Oh, we flex our muscles and they put their toe over the line and they look at us and then we flex our muscles and then they step over the line and we flex our muscles and they keep doing it.
00:21:58.000I just did a segment on this earlier today for my other channel.
00:22:01.000Bloomberg News shut down a story on Chinese Communist Party members, and in the internal recordings that were released to NPR, they were straight up calling China Nazis, and they were like, let's have no illusions about it, we know what they are.
00:23:09.000So that's a very good point to be made, Mr. NBA, that because some crazy people randomly commit acts of violence, that somehow justifies ignoring the concentration camps full of people having their organs harvested.
00:23:31.000You know, one of the craziest things that I was reading was that there were apparently like rich people getting lung transplants, you know, because you get scar tissue from the coronavirus.
00:23:49.000So one of the theories that's going around is that there are certain countries where they're Muslim, and so they can't have non, like, what is it called, halal?
00:25:26.000Which, you know, now that we're seeing with the coronavirus lockdown, how authoritarian things are getting here, I'm not happy about that, which we were mentioning earlier.
00:25:33.000Yeah, we've got what's going on in Michigan.
00:25:47.000Dude, I wonder if we're on the precipice.
00:25:51.000I know a lot of people... It's interesting because there'll be a lot of people who message me saying, like, you don't understand how close we are to war, and they'll send me all these stories.
00:25:59.000Then I get other people sending me stories saying, oh, nothing's gonna happen, you have no idea what you're talking about, and I'm like, I don't know, man.
00:26:05.000I'm just gonna talk about how I see it and what I think, and I'm not sure we're actually at that point yet, but it seems like over the past, I don't know, seven years, or longer than that, but I mean seven years since I was seeing all this stuff more prominently, that we've been close to something for a long time, but nobody wants to be the first person to fire that shot heard around the world.
00:26:25.000Yeah, you and I were talking about war with China in October because of the trade war stuff.
00:26:51.000He's been talking about China for so long about how big of a problem they are, and everyone, all they did was just make fun of him for talking about China.
00:26:59.000Early on, like before he was running for president, they didn't really make fun of him.
00:27:03.000Like a lot of these articles were like, Trump said this.
00:27:06.000As soon as he runs for president, though, they realize, dude, the media would, look, the joke is that if Trump came out in favor of oxygen, they'd hold their breath.
00:27:16.000So, but there was another joke, and this is hilarious.
00:27:19.000Trump supporters have said if Trump cured cancer, they would find a way to make it negative.
00:27:24.000Trump literally comes out with like, hey, a bunch of countries are using hydroxychloroquine.
00:28:06.000Honestly, the more and more I'm privy to this media world, the political realm that I wasn't really paying attention to before, the more I see the media seems to be whoever is the highest bidder.
00:28:18.000And sometimes it feels like it's China.
00:28:20.000Sometimes it feels like it's pharmaceutical companies.
00:28:23.000But either way, they don't care about the truth.
00:29:14.000Because he's like, look at what Jim Acosta does.
00:29:17.000He's a caricature of everything Trump complains about, stands up, It's really annoying, and then tease up Trump to give this epic shutdown response.
00:29:47.000And then what's really funny is they point out Jim Acosta's Twitter banner is him on Jimmy Kimmel.
00:29:52.000He's like, Jim Acosta just wants to be famous.
00:29:54.000So all of these people in press, in the media industry, particularly the political media sphere, because it's not all journalists, obviously.
00:31:09.000The weirdest thing Brian Stelter, the CNN media guy, him and Oliver Darcy, the other media guy, all they do over the past couple days is tweet what Fox News is doing.
00:32:06.000So then, you know, the title of the segment to give you information was they were challenging who has the real authority.
00:32:12.000Brian Seltzer tweeted that from CNN as if it was like a negative, and all of these resistance people in the comments were like, I can't believe Fox News would do that, and Fo News, and of course they're lying, and I'm like, they literally didn't do anything.
00:32:24.000They're just reporting it as it comes.
00:32:30.000The other dude, Oliver Darcy, was tweeting about it, and he's like, look at what CNN put, and CNN's lower, like the chyron, the banner, was like, they were having a meltdown.
00:32:41.000It was like, you know, Trump has angry outbursts trying to rewrite history, and I'm like, whoa, whoa.
00:32:47.000And then he's like, and here's what Fox News is doing.
00:35:50.000Like CNN has become just the trash network and everyone knows it.
00:35:53.000And this was like, he accidentally pulled the curtain aside and you can see behind all the inner workings and you're like, there it is man.
00:36:29.000What's actually sad is that when he did this, I think the reason a lot of people are reacting in the way they are to it is because we all knew it.
00:36:46.000So the New York Times actually barred their reporters from appearing on Don Lemon's show briefly because they said it was partisan.
00:36:53.000And Don Lemon got all mad like, I am not partisan, I am a reporter!
00:36:57.000And then he just goes on his hour-long rant about the president being bad all day, every day.
00:37:01.000It's like, dude, I don't think you get it.
00:37:05.000So Donald Trump did this press briefing where he ragged on all the journalists, and they got really angry.
00:37:10.000And that's where CNN did this meltdown tantrum in their banner.
00:37:13.000And I'm like, if you want to report the news and Trump is insulting you, the graphic card should be something like, Trump criticizes the press during press briefing.
00:40:27.000They're already saying, like, unhinged rant from the president.
00:40:30.000They're saying, someone tweeted, Donald Trump, you know, Donald Trump suspending funding to the World Health Organization during a pandemic is like, stop us.
00:40:39.000It would be like halting shipments of ammunition to your allies in a world war.
00:40:43.000And my response was like, maybe if that ally was feeding you disinformation, which allowed your adversary to, you know, slow you down and kill your people, you might cut off funding to them.
00:41:08.000Even myself, like, it seems like that's the case.
00:41:11.000It's like, so this makes total sense to me that Trump's like, I'm gonna free, they seem like they're, you know, working for the Chinese government.
00:41:26.000There was a story from Wired, and it said that it was a right-wing stunt to blame the World Health Organization But it said Trump, uh, it was like, it was like, the right is not wrong about the World Health Organization.
00:41:39.000And I'm like, or it said Trump is not wrong.
00:41:41.000And I'm like, you can just say he's right.
00:41:50.000Wired actually said the World Health Organization has been feeding us misinformation, which has slowed our response down.
00:41:57.000And they called it, they still maintained the only reason the right was, the only reason that the right was actually saying it was because it was a stunt.
00:42:04.000Maybe it's because the right and people like me and other, you know, politically homeless individuals, we see what's actually happening, and we say it's happening, but because the media lives in this weird bubble where everything is viewed through the lens of, and every Republican is evil, they're like, certainly this must be fake news, we must say the opposite.
00:42:24.000I think this is what bothers me most about the talking heads like Don Lemon and Jim Acosta and everybody.
00:42:29.000Are you not supposed to have a really big pinch of skepticism when you're a journalist?
00:42:34.000Because that's what I don't see in those people.
00:42:36.000And I imagine that's what the people behind the scenes have, right?
00:43:09.000government came out and said, listen, we got a pandemic, we need you to stay home, I'd be like, well, I don't trust you for the most part, but I'm gonna listen.
00:43:16.000If the Chinese government came out and said it, I'd be like, I will do nothing that you say.
00:43:20.000I do not believe you, and I think you're trying to hurt me.
00:43:25.000So we're getting all this disinfo, people are dying.
00:43:28.000Even BuzzFeed reported that Chinese trolls on social media were trying to slow the responses in other countries like Spain and Taiwan.
00:43:36.000I'm like, well, well, there you go, man.
00:43:38.000Yeah, they're actively hurting us and they're claiming the the help they're sending out They that these countries you see these videos going out of like Chinese like I don't know Reporters or something saying, you know without the Chinese government all these other countries would be yeah in dire straits so bless the Chinese government is like What even even American journalists are doing it and then in the next that you know the next day It's like turns out all this Chinese equipment doesn't work So not only are they you know the the cause well supposedly the cause we don't know exactly factor the contributing factor to the pandemic but they're sending out faulty stuff and
00:44:22.000And then now we're hearing like they wanted it to spread in other places.
00:44:51.000And so there's there's concern now from the right that this is a bad sign because Wisconsin is a major battleground state and Trump barely won last time.
00:44:59.000So if this woman beats the Republican right now, what does that say about, you know, November?
00:45:05.000Based off what we saw in the UK in December with like this major blowout conservative victory, I'm inclined to believe that the same thing might happen here.
00:48:31.000If they had this on pay-per-view, like, just not even a presidential thing, it was like Trump and Biden are going to talk to each other in a debate, and there was no politics, I'd be like, tell me how much it costs.
00:49:04.000When I went to the White House, They said, you know, the way I described it was like a VIP Trump rally.
00:49:09.000I thought I was actually going to sit down and have a conversation with people and talk about some of the problems and what needs to be addressed because I really want to see social media get fixed.
00:49:16.000No, we all sat down and Trump basically did a stand up routine.
00:49:42.000I could have been upset that people started calling me Soy Jesus, and then it would have become something so different than what it is now.
00:49:49.000But I don't care what anyone calls me.
00:49:52.000And now it's pretty endearing because I love you guys.
00:50:01.000I don't think when people were saying it, they were even intending it to be an insult.
00:50:04.000It was just something that people were like, look at this guy, he's got long hair and a beard.
00:50:09.000But what happens is you have two kinds of people.
00:50:11.000You have the more, I don't even want to say conservative because I don't know what it is, but I think people like you are less likely to have Trump derangement syndrome because you don't let things get to you.
00:50:28.000You know, I actually was mad at Trump for a long time when he started The Apprentice, because back in high school, it was one of my flirting moves to fire girls.
00:50:38.000I was like, mid-conversation, they would just be cracking up.
00:51:22.000So when I was watching Trump at this event, he made, I can't remember exactly what he said, but I'm pretty sure he made a joke about being orange and everybody left because he knows what they say about him.
00:51:32.000And it was clear that he's like, he didn't care.
00:51:33.000He turned it into a joke and it was really funny.
00:51:37.000And this is what I try explaining to people.
00:51:38.000They get, I don't know, I don't know what causes Trump derangement syndrome, but like, There's so many people in this world that are truly despicable and nasty people.
00:52:51.000I was looking at this Pew Research that I used in one of my main segments where it shows that conservative Republicans Moderate Republicans and Moderate Democrats are all very much likely to use the internet for civically-minded things to the same degree.
00:53:26.000Either they're wrapping themselves up in this downward spiral of insanity, or they're all emotionally weak, ignorant people who are easily led by shock content.
00:54:52.000And it reminds me of that saying, why is it that, you know, the ignorant are so confident, and then, you know, I don't know what the full quote is, but something like smart people are so full of doubt.
00:55:00.000And so I actually stop and think about this.
00:55:05.000And then I look at the data, and now I'm ready to conclude, not completely, because I want to reserve the possibility I'm still wrong.
00:55:12.000That right now what we're seeing is that stupid people are easily manipulated into supporting trash, fake news, and everyone else, moderate Democrats, moderate Republicans, and conservative Republicans are more skeptical and more mature and don't fall for this stuff.
00:55:28.000A better way to put it is that it's not that people who are far leftist are morons, it's that morons are pulled very easily to the far left.
00:55:36.000Okay, that makes sense. Right. So you do have a lot of smart progressives and Bernie supporters
00:55:40.000and things people I really respect. But then you end up with these really like, is it is it? Is it
00:55:45.000no wonder that these people on Twitter who put pronouns in their bios also list all of their
00:56:03.000So I think it's not that leftists have mental illnesses, it's that people who have mental illnesses are very easily tricked into adopting these beliefs through manipulation.
00:56:17.000I guess we'll see where that takes us in terms of, you know, November.
00:56:21.000Well, before we move on, you know, that is another problem is we have to learn how to admit we're wrong and be okay with other people admitting that they're wrong and not, like, reprimanding them for that and acknowledging, oh, they realize they're wrong.
00:56:38.000Exactly do that like oh that's right. I tried to a NBA player said I really apologized like two days later
00:57:27.000And so if someone accuses you of something and you deny it and ignore it, then people are less likely to associate you with whatever you were accused of.
00:58:07.000And that's a problem with emotional intelligence because it's almost like the media and all these people are treating everyone like babies.
00:58:44.000But yeah, but you know, this is a serious human conundrum, in that we want to protect everyone no matter what, even the people we don't like.
00:59:41.000But, um, we will see if this actually escalates to conventional war, which I'm not entirely convinced it will.
00:59:47.000You know, it could be more saber-rattling like we often see, and maybe things calm down, we get back to normal, and that would be preferable.
01:00:16.000We'll read as many as we can because we do have... We didn't actually get into the female draft thing, but we do want to talk about this experimental coronavirus treatment, which is pretty cool.
01:00:26.000So let's just start with the super chats.
01:00:28.000Perpetual Punster says, Hail Tim, Adam, and Lydia, the heroes in a half pipe.
01:00:32.000Hey Tim, I had to look up the definition of Chiron.
01:00:35.000Thus, thanks to you, I learned something new.
01:04:11.000They give their opinions, but there's a really, really amazing point in the documentary where Mike Cernovich is being interviewed by, I think, Scott Pelley of 60 Minutes.
01:04:53.000Like, these journalists don't realize.
01:04:56.000They are elitists going all these articles came out about Donald Trump during the campaign season saying all of these doctors say based on the way he talks he clearly has these personality disorders.
01:05:07.000So Cernovich literally did the same thing in the other direction and they all said he was lying and fake news and all right and all these other things.
01:06:23.000And there's some studies that actually came out of China, they rescinded them, that this may have not been made as a bioweapon, but that it was essentially developed in a lab rather accidentally through research, and it leaked.
01:06:44.000Sly Bread says, Hey Tim, did you hear there's a rumor going around that Taiwan notified the World Health Organization about COVID-19 by email in December?
01:06:52.000The World Health Organization really is trying to lapdog.
01:06:57.000Connor Stevens says, I'm at work, so I can't really link to anything at the moment, but my understanding is Amber stood on the bed and forced it out LMAO.
01:08:04.000And then, it's funny, one guy's like, it shows the guy running as a drone, and then he gets sniped, and then he wakes up in the bed, and his commanding officer goes, those things aren't free!
01:09:14.000Cause everybody, people would do anything for their families and the government, not just governments, anybody who wants power knows they can manipulate you through your family.
01:09:23.000Yeah, it's in every single movie, right?
01:09:59.000My favorite scene is when he's sitting down, he finds the guy, and the guy says, what does he say, like, see you soon or something like that?
01:12:29.000And it's interesting because then the corporation then smears the group, blaming all this extra damage that they caused themselves on the eco-terrorist group.
01:12:53.000I watched every single cut scene, you know, so now I'm playing hard mode and I'm just skipping all the cut scenes and the game is flying by now.
01:13:23.000When I played this playthrough, it was like watching a movie of the game I already knew, but I was finding out so much more.
01:13:33.000about the characters and I mean there was a little stuff there's stuff I could admit that didn't need to be in there but for the most part it was it was really incredible and I'm glad they're doing something a little different so it's not I I'm still I mean I played Final Fantasy 7 so many times and I I mean we can talk about that at a different time but it's good to have something new yeah even though it and it's familiar but I'm glad I'm still being caught off guard I think it looks amazing.
01:16:13.000He'll be like, you know, they'll interview him and he'll go, you know, the thing with the discounts and the struggle that, you know, with Trump and the victory we have.
01:16:21.000And the media will be like, Joe Biden gives amazing speech saying it's time to fight for victory and resist Donald Trump.
01:16:38.000Alright, so we're gonna speed up these Super Chats, try and get through them, because we do have some more stories we want to read for you.
01:16:42.000I think we should do the Amber Heard one next, because I'm really excited to read about her pooping the bed.
01:18:18.000But they're sticking to what's working.
01:18:21.000So Dylan Bella says basically the same thing, that stopped building B-52s in the 60s and 70s, most pilots are flying B-52s their fathers flew.
01:18:29.000Roddy says, I had CBRN training which covered biological attacks, and in the region we get smallpox shots because a biological attack by China has always been a threat out of everywhere in the world.
01:18:50.000The only reason I had a large knife was because I personally brought one.
01:18:53.000appreciate it. Heavy Arms Guy says people who fight on the front lines are very
01:18:58.000lightly armed. While deployed I had an m16 with three mags that's it. The only
01:19:02.000reason I had a large knife was because I personally brought one. Oh interesting.
01:19:06.000Hmm. Dalimar says Tim the US has 11 fleet carriers, nuke-powered, 80 fighters, and 9 amphibious assault ships, which are helicopter and 20 fighter carriers.
01:19:16.000Our amphibious carriers are on par with the rest of the world's carriers alone.
01:22:37.000How bad do you predict civil unrest gets when President Trump calls for the end of quarantine and the Chinese-American media and Democrats keep enforcing quarantine?
01:22:46.000Well, no matter what Trump says, they will come out against it.
01:22:48.000So, there was a Babylon Bee article It said, ingenious move, Trump comes out in support of
01:22:53.000impeachment, forcing Democrats to oppose.
01:23:24.000Because these criticisms, the legit ones, would make sense if the media would just shut up and then focus on the things they actually need to focus on.
01:23:39.000JMaxx says, Tim, do you still talk to David Pakman?
01:23:41.000I followed him on Twitter for his perspective, but today he was condemning Trump for defunding the World Health Organization.
01:23:46.000I don't know how you defend that organization regardless of where you fall politically.
01:23:49.000Partisan lines are getting even wider.
01:23:52.000I talk to David because I think while David is wrong on many things, and he's certainly criticized me for similar things, I think he's being good faith.
01:24:02.000I think he's actually telling you what he thinks.
01:24:04.000And I think he's wrong, but that's okay.
01:24:08.000Like, you know, we had a conversation.
01:24:09.000He said that, you know, he thought that I was purposefully choosing certain topics to rile people up or whatever.
01:30:06.000George says, Tim, what do you think about QAnon?
01:30:08.000Do you think Trump has been actively fighting a deep state or an establishment?
01:30:11.000Or do you think it's just hope porn to placate people?
01:30:15.000I think I don't know a lot about QAnon.
01:30:18.000I know a lot of people who don't go near it because the people like higher profile people on Twitter who have actually talked about it said it's complete bunk and BS.
01:30:26.000And that's the only thing I really know about it because I have little interest.
01:30:31.000I do think that the deep state is always there.
01:30:33.000I think it's there through every administration.
01:30:35.000It's just the people who work for the government.
01:30:37.000They've officially called it permanent government.
01:30:39.000And the way I explain it is that when someone is appointed to a national security position, it doesn't matter who's elected, they stay there.
01:30:47.000So like if Bush appoints somebody, then Obama gets elected, then Trump gets elected, that person's there for the entire government, like throughout multiple decades.
01:30:55.000So those are the people who are advising and controlling how we handle certain policies.
01:30:58.000I think Trump is fighting an establishment.
01:31:01.000I don't think it's like a nefarious cabal of like secret organizations, Bilderberg or whatever.
01:32:11.000Roddy says, I wanted to just throw into discussion that China for years has been in a regime civil war between Xi and Jiang Zemin with tons of purges, and we might see them start to crumble worse internally.
01:32:25.000Paxton says, tungsten rods are what we have because Russia puts nukes on a satellite in the 80s, and everyone collectively said nukes in space are illegal, tungsten rods are a loophole.
01:32:57.000As the world burns down around us, perhaps it's fun and important to kind of Get a good relaxing story about some celebrity female in a feud, a battle of allegations and abuse, and the latest story.
01:33:11.000That, well, the real story is that the petition to remove Amber Heard from Aquaman 2 has almost reached 400,000 signatures.
01:34:14.000The petition to get Amber Heard removed as Mira from Aquaman 2 is getting very close to reaching 400k signatures on Change.org.
01:34:21.000Over the past few weeks, there's been a noticeable surge in the number of people signing this petition.
01:34:27.000I remember when the petition hadn't passed 100k, and there was a huge jump in the number of people signing it.
01:34:32.000I think the main reason why people have felt so strongly that Heard should play Mira in Aquaman 2 is all the evidence that she should have come out against her in the past few weeks.
01:34:42.000Amber Heard had previously claimed she was the victim of domestic abuse while she was married to Johnny Depp.
01:34:46.000She went on in public with bruises on her face, and she claimed that he was abused during their time together.
01:34:53.000There have been recordings leaked of the two of them, and they make it quite clear who was abusing who.
01:35:06.000There have been court documents which paint a very bad picture for the Aquaman actress.
01:35:53.000We have another story where Johnny Depp fans say Amber Heard deserves jail after resurfaced video show's actor with prominent brews.
01:36:01.000The clip, which has been uploaded on Twitter with the hashtag JusticeForJohnnyDepp, was of Depp's guest appearance on The Graham Norton Show in November 2015.
01:36:09.000So there's evidence of this in, like, mainstream TV shows.
01:36:15.000Fans of Johnny Depp claim to have uncovered further proof the actor was physically abused by Amber Heard in a video, where he is seemingly sporting a bruise under his eye during a television interview.
01:36:25.000The clip, which was uploaded on Twitter, in it, he's talking about some of the quirky characters he's played over the years, and the creative process behind some alongside Sherlock and Avengers, star Benedict Cumberbatch.
01:36:38.000The pair had appeared together to discuss their biographical crime drama film, Black Mass.
01:36:43.000As Norton talks to him about his roles, the camera zooms into his left eye, where he has a prominent bruise before cutting to a snap of Captain Jack Sparrow.
01:36:52.000While there is no indication from the actor's end that he had been injured during the interview, his fans have insisted that he was while blaming Amber Heard and called for him to be reinstated into the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
01:38:16.000Like there was something that happened with Hulu, I think, where they tweeted some ridiculously stupid Halloween thing like, make sure not to wear culturally appropriating costumes.
01:38:47.000You know, there's a difference between what Chick-fil-A does and who they donate to behind the scenes and what a company publicly announces they want or support.
01:39:18.000I mean, you know my personal part about it.
01:39:21.000Like, I have a friend from high school who had a girl claim that he raped her, and then two years later, after he's been in prison the whole time, admitted that he never did, and she was just upset because he broke up with her, and she lied.
01:39:35.000And she didn't go to jail or anything for that.
01:39:37.000He got out of prison and he was let free and it's like, sorry, sorry we took two of your years away because we just instantly believed this girl.
01:40:14.000And what bothers me about all of this is that the default is always, it's always, it's always a weird cultural political thing.
01:40:21.000Like, with the Joe Biden thing going on right now, I tweeted something, I tweeted something like, you know, Joe Biden's been credibly accused and Bernie endorsed him.
01:40:31.000And then some anti-Trump guy responded, like, you shouldn't trust her accusation.
01:43:25.000You know, look, I think everybody deserves second chances.
01:43:29.000If she came out and said, you know, what I went through with Johnny Depp was a mistake and I feel terrible about it, I'm so sorry to everybody and my fans, I hope Johnny can find it in his heart to forgive me or whatever, I'd be like, what do you say, Johnny?
01:43:43.000Like bygones be bygones, we can move forward and give her another chance.
01:43:46.000Yeah, I'd look to Johnny and be like, what do you think?
01:45:46.000The movie can start, and it literally starts with him being like, you know, he's walking down the street, and he's like, oh, Mira, come with me.
01:45:54.000And then she walks to cross the street, and then a bus just hits her, and then she's out of the movie.
01:46:27.000There are a lot of social justice-y feminists who have come out in support of this guy, Johnny Depp, and I respect it.
01:46:35.000I wish that they would stop just blanket believing anybody, because I don't care if you're a man, woman, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, whatever.
01:46:51.000So if you come to me and say, this happened, I'll say, I will take it seriously, and I will operate off of the assumption that you are telling me the truth.
01:49:32.000That's why the change camera view is taken num.
01:49:37.000Well, I do have a can of soda, and when the camera changes, I take, you know, it's like, it'll go to Adam, I'm like... I was like, Tim's getting thirsty.
01:50:31.000You can also really help out by sharing.
01:50:34.000If you think the show is good, word of mouth is the way we overcome, I'll put it simply, YouTube props up mainstream media and down ranks and removes channels like this.
01:50:44.000So we really do rely on good old word of mouth.
01:52:53.000Brave New Perth says, what is your take on Russian Eurasianism, the international Eurasian movement, and Russia's grand strategy, Greater Eurasia?
01:53:48.000Connor says, Tim, how long do you think it'll take until we all collectively get so fed up with the commies that we just start shooting them?
01:53:53.000I don't want it to happen, mind you, but at this point it seems like an inevitability.
01:54:04.000And it depends on what you mean by commie.
01:54:05.000I mean, if people are going out roving vans causing chaos and trying to revolt or start a revolution, the police will come in and do it, you know?
01:54:11.000Bobcat says, what do you think about orbital rings as the future of space access?
01:54:16.000I think they'll solve terrestrial problems to make them worth exploring now.
