How Propaganda Works · THINK BEFORE YOU SLEEP

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: The first reason you are a Republican is that you
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: do not think it is a political party's job to
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: make your life or the country better. Your only concern
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: is doing harm to groups that are different from you.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: The Republicans are not a political party, but a death cult.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: So to those of you who think that I'm being
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: too crass or mean, I don't care.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: This party is.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Literally destroying the world, and I'm not going to hold
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: your hand for you to understand that reality.
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: I don't think you're being mean. I just think that
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: people with incredibly simplistic opinions, like my opponent is literally Hitler,
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: are people who aren't that smart. Yes, there are Republicans
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: who are bad, just like there are Democrats who are bad.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: But blatantly saying that all conservatives are either stupid or
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: evil is something a 14-year-old would say.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Have you ever heard a Republican campaign on actual policies
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: on how to improve things like health care, housing, or
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: living wages?
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Of course not.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Yes, they do all the time. Lowering the cost of
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: everything was one of Trump's major campaign promises.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: Inflation is destroying.
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: Our country we will target everything from car affordability to
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: housing affordability to insurance costs to supply chain issues to
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: the price of prescription drugs we're going to bring energy prices.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Down now whether a president or a specific politician can
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: actually achieve that depends on the person but to say
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: they never talk about these things is incredibly negligent on
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: his part in terms of research anyway this is a
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: new rising star channel called no way no how and
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: it's spelled creatively so it's incredibly difficult to remember.
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: Smart move.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: NoWayNoHow, who also goes by Alex, runs a channel that
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: covers politics from a far-left perspective, and with the MrBeast
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: retention bar at the bottom of any clip that might
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: be slightly boring, so I'm sure you can guess who
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: his target audience is. That being said, I can't help
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: but notice as a creator that there are many channels
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: on a particular side of the political spectrum that get
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: tons of views despite having a very small subscriber base,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: And despite making videos that are really, really poorly written
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: and fact-checked, And because of that, I would like to
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: introduce you to the Hasan Piker radicalization pipeline.
• 1:57
  Speaker 6: Right, so it turns out Hasan has decided to watch
• 2:00
  Speaker 6: a video from a channel with three Ks up. Basically
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: what he does is he reacts to their videos and
• 2:05
  Speaker 6: he artificially boosts their metrics and they get spammed with
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: a bunch of positive comments from his fans and they're
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: incentivized to glaze them even more.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Right, so what happens is that a far left channel
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: makes a video, Hasan reacts to it, and the video
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: quickly blows up. Numerous reactions like this is actually how
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: Noah Sampson got famous. He might recognize Noah as the
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: guy who is rightfully being sued for defamation by Ethan Klein. Well,
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: that's old news.
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: In more recent history, Hassan has found Alex's channel.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Forces carried out mass executions.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: This is a really good video.
• 2:35
  Speaker 7: Holy shit, dude.
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: This guy's got 232 subs.
• 2:38
  Speaker 8: This dude is definitely a Hassan Abiyad.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: Let's see how many subs.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: He got since he started watching.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: Damn, almost 2k subs, let's go.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: So, Hasan reacts to a super small channel and it
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: blows up. And then that channel gets into the content
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: sphere of, my videos only do well if Hasan reacts
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: to them, so I'm going to make the most radical
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: shit possible. Well, in this case, the guy already had
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: some pretty corrupt takes before Hasan came into the picture.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: As the quote goes, borders are scars on the face
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: of the planet.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: But I actually do think a lot of creators know
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: that Hasan does this. so they'll put him in the thumbnail,
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: throw one of his friends in the video, and then
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: preemptively say a bunch of radical stuff in the hopes
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: that he will react. And you know, it's not a
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: bad game plan considering that based on the research, Hasan's
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: fans are largely single and live with their parents, so
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: they have nothing better to do than watch every video
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: on any channel that he recommends, especially if they have
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: the same political ideology, and what it's led to is
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: numerous channels who are so negligent in their research that
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: I'm starting to think that the myriad of things that
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: they get wrong are a lot more intentional than they
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: are on mistakes. This is what I mean.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: The Republican Party currently holds all three branches of government.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: There is nothing holding back the party from doing literally
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: anything they want. So what have the results been with
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: two years of this mandate? A catastrophic failure of epic proportions.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: They've single-handedly destroyed America's soft power in the world. They've
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: gutted all federal agencies that actually help your life by
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: hiring an unelected, drug-addicted, billionaire loser man-child.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: Which vital programs that help people's lives did Elon Musk
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: and Doge cut?
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: Where did he go wrong?
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Because all I saw him do was cut programs with
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: names that sound so bullshit that they must have only
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: been created to steal money. There's no way that this
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: is actual research.
• 4:17
  Speaker 9: I'd like to read through a couple of the grants
• 4:20
  Speaker 9: that Doge just pulled back. They pulled back a $ 1. 5
• 4:24
  Speaker 9: million NIH grant to Morehouse College. It was called the
• 4:28
  Speaker 9: Center to Advance Reproductive Justice and Behavioral Health Among Black
• 4:33
  Speaker 9: Pregnant Slash Postpartum Women and Birthing People. How about the
• 4:38
  Speaker 9: conference Gender Equity in the Mathematical Study of Commutative Algebra?
• 4:44
  Speaker 9: Do you think that that's a valid form of government spending?
• 4:46
  Speaker 10: I think all kinds of government investment should be dedicated
• 4:49
  Speaker 10: toward mathematics.
• 4:50
  Speaker 9: All kinds of government investment. You don't have any kind
• 4:53
  Speaker 9: of limit on what we're spending our money on?
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Just everything?
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: See what I mean?
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Anyway, Alex is going to go over a massive list
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: of every perceived failure of Republicans, and I'm going to
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: be honest, there's a lot here that I don't know
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: that much about, so I'm just not going to address it.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: I'd rather stay inside of my expertise, and I don't
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: think it's that big of a deal here, though, because
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: inside of the stuff that I do know about, he
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: is so horrendously wrong that I think it's very likely
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: that everything he's saying here is just flat-out misinformation or
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: has an extreme lack of nuance.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: For example, they've redirected billions of dollars from renewable projects
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: to fossil fuels when electrifying is literally cheaper than fossil
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: fuels and our grid desperately needs energy.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: Now, because I spent quite a number of hours researching this,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: I'm going to try to have a nuanced conversation instead
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: of just saying my opponent is evil for liking solar
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: panels like Alex is trying to do with his opponents. However,
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: I'm going to ignore wind turbines when it comes to
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: renewables because I'm not really impressed with them.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: The next base of support is big oil and natural gas.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: These corporations would like to make as much profit as
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: possible from fracking and drilling U.S. fossil fuels while at
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: the same time axing any efforts to develop the U.S.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: transition to clean energy.
• 6:01
  Speaker 11: Drill, baby, drill.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: They are largely behind the efforts canceling American renewable projects
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: and massively delaying the transition to electric vehicles.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think that's entirely the case. Ironically, the drill, baby,
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: drill clip was Trump talking about trying to lower the
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: price of everything by lowering the price of energy. Now,
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: before I get into why people might not want solar panels,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: I do want to remind everyone that contrary to the marketing,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: solar panels aren't clean technology. They actually cause quite a
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: bit of pollution because they contain rare earth metals, and
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: rare earth metals are toxic to dig and refine.
• 6:34
  Speaker 12: It's really because of the challenges, the heavy energy and
• 6:38
  Speaker 12: resource and pollution risks that are associated with refining rare
• 6:42
  Speaker 12: earth elements, that production has concentrated historically in so few places.
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: Processing rare earths often involves the use of solvents, which
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: can produce toxic waste.
• 6:53
  Speaker 13: The other issue is that some rare earth deposits are radioactive.
• 7:01
  Speaker 13: They include uranium and thorium.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: I actually think that most people don't know that we
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: get radioactive materials from the ground.
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: They're naturally occurring.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Funnily enough, as far as I'm aware, nuclear is the
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: most environmentally friendly form of energy.
• 7:15
  Speaker 14: Amazingly enough, nuclear has the lowest carbon impact of all
• 7:20
  Speaker 14: of them because you have to build the solar power
• 7:22
  Speaker 14: and the wind power, and that requires energy that is
• 7:25
  Speaker 14: currently not produced.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: Renewably.
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: Nuclear energy is very safe. Interesting.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: So here's the actual nuance because my major issue is
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: with Alex's claim that solar panels are cheaper than oil
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: and gas. A claim that I was going to laugh
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: at until I watched this video here talking about how
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: the technology has gotten much better and how we can
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: all navigate the logistical nightmares to the point where we
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: can make solar panels much cheaper than gas and oil. Anyway,
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: here's the issue. Solar panels are a spend a lot
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: right now but save more money later type deal. It's
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: actually the same problem with nuclear power. It's more expensive
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: to build a nuclear plant than it is to build
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: a fossil fuel power plant. They're like multiple times more expensive.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: So the hard sell is that during a time when
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: people are financially struggling like crazy, you want to tell them, hey,
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: I know you can barely afford anything right now, but
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: we want to spend a lot of money making solar
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: farms so that 10 years down the line, you can
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: save money on your energy bill and your groceries. Also,
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: you'll have to buy a new car for this plant
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: to work and you'll have to get rid of your
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: gas stove. And people aren't going to logically process all
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: of this, they'll just see the prices.
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: Going up and not know why.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: Also, does anyone else find it weird that Alex was
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: shitting on Elon Musk, the number one electric car salesman
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: in America, and he's only being outsold by China when
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: it comes to worldwide sales? So if we're talking about charitability,
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: why is there no grace given to Elon for at
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: least promoting the technology that Alex wants?
• 8:43
  Speaker 15: A lot of people in the United States right now
• 8:45
  Speaker 15: think any discussion of a political issue must have been
• 8:49
  Speaker 15: bought and paid for by the other team. That's just
• 8:52
  Speaker 15: not how any of this works.
• 8:53
  Speaker 16: Right.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: That was a very surprisingly down-to-earth thing for him to
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: say during a 30-minute nonsense rant about ICE.
• 8:59
  Speaker 15: Those words were written about King George, but they might
• 9:02
  Speaker 15: as well describe Donald Trump.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: Outside of that, this was a great video on how
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: technology works, and this is a great channel for learning
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. And this kind of knowledge is
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: important because a lot of people are so lacking in
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: tech skills that they will fall for obvious scams like
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: telling everyone that we can make roads out of solar panels.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Has anyone seen this video for solar freaking roadways?
• 9:21
  Speaker 13: I have seen the future, and it is solar freaking roadways.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: Among the numerous problems with this idea, solar panels are
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: made out of glass, and imagine trying to drive on
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: glass in the rain. More importantly, solar technology has numerous roadblocks,
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: and saying that your opponents are evil for being dismissive
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: of solar without addressing the roadblocks is not a conversation,
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: it's a radicalization technique. Speaking of that, let's move on
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: to the last point on his list that I'm going
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: to cover.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: They have supercharged a paramilitary organization composed of the dumbest,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: unqualified losers in society. who roam the streets destroying countless
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: communities and murdering people in both facilities and broad daylight.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: Okay, so I had to censor a lot of that
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: because it's full of stuff that will get you demonetized. Anyway,
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: he's talking about ICE, and I gotta say that those
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: are some incredibly strong claims that need evidence. And I
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: say that because I've gone over every single event that
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: leftists have brought up where they said that ICE was
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: wrongfully deporting someone, and it turns out that person was
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: rightfully being deported. Every situation I've researched where someone has died,
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: it's because they were violently resisting arrest or actively attacking police.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: Pro tip, don't resist arrest, even if you're completely innocent. Actually,
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: especially if you're innocent. In fact, this shit from people
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: like Alex has been so egregious that I watched leftists
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: blame ICE for the death of an American woman who
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: was killed in a traffic accident that was caused by
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: an illegal fleeing being deported. The illegal killed the woman,
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: not the police, but the police get blamed for doing
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: what we pay them to do.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: The Republican support for ICE has been a perfect example
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: of this mindset as the constant cruelty and brutality on display.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: hasn't made their lives better in any way or actually
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: addressed any of the problems in their lives. All it
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: does is offer them a spectacle of cruelty as an
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: outlet for their own deteriorating conditions.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Bro, what the hell are you talking about? Cracking down
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: on illegal immigration as well as deporting legal immigrants who
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: refuse to assimilate and learn English absolutely benefits Americans. This
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: is like the biggest issue in the country. It affects
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: our voting because illegals get counted in the census, which
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: artificially inflates the number of congressmen a state gets. It
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: affects housing prices. It costs our welfare system more money
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: because both immigrants and illegals take up welfare more often
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: than natural-born American citizens. I mean, this guy supports Bernie Sanders,
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: so I'm sure you can see where I'm coming from
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: on this issue.
• 11:39
  Speaker 17: Open borders. That's a Koch brothers proposal. That's a right-wing
• 11:43
  Speaker 17: proposal which says essentially there is no United States.
• 11:46
  Speaker 14: But it would make a lot of global poor richer,
• 11:48
  Speaker 14: wouldn't it?
• 11:49
  Speaker 17: And it'd make everybody in America poorer. Then you're doing
• 11:51
  Speaker 17: away with If you're asking how illegals get welfare, the
• 11:53
  Speaker 17: answer is anchor babies. Anchor babies qualify for welfare benefits,
• 11:55
  Speaker 17: which is yet again another reason why we should abolish
• 11:56
  Speaker 17: birthright citizenship. I mean, there are numerous ways that deporting
• 11:58
  Speaker 17: every single illegal benefits society.
• 12:15
  Speaker 18: The Bush administration has done nothing to control the problem
• 12:19
  Speaker 18: that we have. We've had 5 million undocumented workers come
• 12:23
  Speaker 18: over the borders since George Bush took office. The reason
• 12:27
  Speaker 18: the American people are concerned is because they are seeing
• 12:30
  Speaker 18: their own economic position slip away. Employers are exploiting these
• 12:34
  Speaker 18: undocumented workers. They're not paying the minimum wage. They're not
• 12:38
  Speaker 18: observing worker safety laws.
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: The problem is that useful idiots who support illegal immigration
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: don't know enough about the U.S. government to know things
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: like what I previously mentioned, which is that illegals are
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: counted in the U.S. Census, and sanctuary states use that
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: to cheat in elections. You get more congressional votes when
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: your state population is higher, so illegals are making it
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: easier to increase the number of corrupt politicians in states
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: that are willing to cheat. This not only makes it
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: harder to select a president who accurately represents the values
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: of genuine Americans, But also, it makes it harder to
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: pass good legislation in Congress and repeal bad legislation. This
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: is why it's my personal opinion that we should be
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: charging politicians who aid in illegal immigration with treason. I
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: really think it's time to stop being passive about this
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: stuff and start making people find out when they try
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: to rig our system.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Who actually stands to benefit from this? All of these
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: actions have been done on behalf of the Republican Party
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: base whose interests this party's elected members actually represent. This
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: base is made up of five main groups, the first
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: group being Silicon Valley tech oligarchs. This group is composed
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: of egomaniacal libertarian billionaires who openly do not believe in
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: democracy and want to usher in a form of techno-feudalism
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: where they are the kings of their own personal thiefdoms,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: but at the same time not believing in any social
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: programs or wealth redistribution. These tech oligarchs have completely bought
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: the Republican Party and work hand-in-hand with this administration to
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: achieve their vision.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: If you pay attention to words like wealth redistribution, he's
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: literally saying that Silicon Valley giants are all Republicans now
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: because they aren't communists and because they did what big
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: business owners have always done, which is sit down with
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: the president. But Jeff Bezos, the Washington Post guy, is
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: right-wing now? The guy who financed Woke Lord of the
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: Rings with black dwarves? The guy who owns Twitch, the
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: platform that bans everyone that's slightly right of Marx? Even
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: Elon Musk is not a Republican, nor is RFK. They're
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: both classical liberals who were pushed out of the Democratic
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Party because of all the radicalism. Alex is even accusing
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: Mark Zuckerberg, the guy who was censoring any pro-Trump message
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: in 2020 on Facebook. That guy is right-wing? And he
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: even accuses Bill Gates, the antinatalist global warming guy. He's
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: a conservative? You've got to be fucking kidding me. How
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: far left are you if Bill Gates is on the right? Well,
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: here's the cherry on top when it comes to that
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: giant list of all the failings of the Republican Party.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Everything I just mentioned there was purely what I could
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: recall from memory when writing this. There's a ton of
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: things I could have mentioned, but there's just too many
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: things to list and they're literally all bad and making
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: your life worse. There is no good news coming from
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: this administration.
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: Right, just what I thought.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: He's flat out admitting that he simply wrote out this
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: giant list and didn't research any of it. And I
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: know he didn't because it would take months to fact
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: check all of these claims to make sure they're 100%
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: genuine failures of the Republican Party, with no nuances that
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: would detract from his overall point that Republicans are a
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: pure evil death cult. Research and fact-checking is the most
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: time-consuming part of this job, to the extent where I
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: purposefully will not start research-heavy topics late in the month,
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: because I know I won't finish them before the month
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: is over. Not that research matters to his audience. Based
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: on the Mr. Beast retention bars, you can tell his
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: target audience is radicals who don't care about research, they
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: just want to hear someone else repeat their ideas. or
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: he's targeting young people who don't know any better because
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: they're like 16 years old. So for those who don't
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: know the tricks yet, you can tell when someone is
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: not fact-checking because they won't give specific examples, and they'll
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: get stuff horrendously wrong. On top of that, let me
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: just say that anyone can make people think they fact-check
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: stuff by putting some graphs on screen or saying some
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: numbers like this.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Republican politicians purposely imposed limits to New Deal-era access to
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: education as Roger Freeman, advisor to both Nixon and Reagan, warned,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: we are in danger of creating an educated proletariat. These
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Republican policies succeeded as today, 54% of US adults and
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: over 130 million people read below a sixth grade level.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: Holy shit, that Ronald Reagan part was so deceptive. He
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: cut off the most important part of the quote. I
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: guess he thought nobody would ever look it up. First
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: of all, Reagan's advisor was talking about college. He wasn't
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: talking about trying to make it so people can't read. Second,
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: and more importantly... This guy, Roger Freeman, was correct. He
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: said we need to be selective about who we allow
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: to go to college, otherwise we'll have a large number
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: of highly trained unemployed people. That's exactly what's happened, and
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: on top of that, these unemployed people, or low-wage workers,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: are in a crippling amount of student debt that they
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: wouldn't have if they didn't waste time getting a degree
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: that was useless. Now, as for the stuff about reading proficiency,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: let's have a conversation that's going to be uncomfortable for
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: modern audiences. In a prior video, I showed the kind
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: of stats that are oddly progressively getting harder to find,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: which is statistics that are separated by race. Why does
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: race matter? Well, it's because each race has different cultural values,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: and I'm sure that Alex will have no problem with
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: me talking about race in this way. because I found
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: a video where he essentially masturbates to the idea of
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: America losing a war to China.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: The overwhelming reality is that the United States military is
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: not built for the 21st century and would certainly lose
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: in the event of a conflict with China. The seventh
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: and final major reason why China would decisively win this
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: conflict is that the Chinese would have an infinitely larger
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: will to fight this war than America. I'm going to
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: show you two clips right now. I want you to
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: tell me which group you believe is going to fight
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: this to the last person and die for their country.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: So in this video, he praises the solidarity of the
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: Chinese army and then shows footage revealing that China is
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: a massive ethnostate versus an American multicultural army that he
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: says is weak-willed. I'm sure the Twitter racists will love
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: that irony. So if we're talking about reading and we
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: remove black people, Mexicans, and I imagine the vast number
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: of foreigners who have zero interest in learning English, national
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: reading levels drastically improve. Gee, I wonder why that is. Well, fortunately,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: Alex has another Why Conservatives Are Evil video To explain
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: these discrepancies, at.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: The core of the conservative person's thinking, the feeling that
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: guides their politics is fear. The first fundamental error of
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: moderate conservatives is blaming and addressing the symptoms rather than
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: the root cause. Conservatives insist on addressing the symptoms of
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: the problem with harsher and harsher policies, never trying to
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: actually heal it or even acknowledge it's even there. This
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: is because the root cause of problems in society are material,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: meaning the lack of basic necessities and financial instability.
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: Got it, so you're a communist. You could have just
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: started with that.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Well, and a propagandist considering the it's only conservatives who
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: fearmonger line of argumentation, ignoring that a bunch of leftists
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: fearmongered everyone into shutting down the entirety of society for
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: multiple years, as well as tried to fearmonger everyone into
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: mandatory vaccination. But okay, his argument is that people don't
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: do well because they don't have enough materials.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: In low-income neighborhoods, schools are severely underfunded, leaving students with
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: few resources and limited opportunities.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: He's saying that blacks and Mexicans have low levels of
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: education because their schools are underfunded. Now, I'm going to
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: ignore the irony of him complaining about education levels after
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: he said that we must import infinite illiterate third-worlders, so
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: I can continue talking about a topic that's even more
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: uncomfortable for modern audiences by saying, does this guy know
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: anything about the culture of the low-income black community?
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: They don't value.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Education, that's why they read at a level of a first-grader,
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: and they talk like they've never had a grammar lesson
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: in their entire life. How many additional resources do you
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: need to learn how to read and do math? You
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: have electricity, running water, shelter. a ton of you have
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: air conditioning. Hell, food is so cheap in America that
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: some of the poorest people in this country could go
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: multiple months without eating and get healthier. And last, you
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: have a library of infinite information on your phone. Do
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: you know how many people in history would have lost
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: their shit over the ability to fully educate themselves? with
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: just a cell phone, though not to remove the nuance
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: of the cost of living going up and how unhappy
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: I am about that, but to pretend that the poorest
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: person in America isn't still incredibly wealthy compared to people
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: of the past or the rest of the world is ridiculous.
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: This we need more resources line of thinking is a
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: retarded argument that communists love to use to devalue the
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: importance of culture, which is what is actually causing all
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: these discrepancies.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Within a large radius, the only affordable food options are
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: fast food chains like McDonald's and Subway, offering little beyond
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: highly processed foods.
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: Y'all, I shouldn't be keeping it real right now. Let
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: me be 100.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: You're going to tell me that people who season their
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: food with baby powder and go crazy over pineapple dipped
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: in Kool-Aid give two shits about the quality of their
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: local food options?
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: Trying the pineapple, the Kool-Aid pineapple.
• 20:55
  Speaker 18: Swell it out a small joint, nobody making them like this.
• 21:01
  Speaker 15: What it tastes like?
• 21:03
  Speaker 17: Oh, Lord!
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: The most racist person on 4chan could not have thought
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: of this trend. On top of that, the reason why
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: they only have McDonald's and liquor stores in the hood
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: is because doctors and engineers keep stealing from department stores
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: so the owners don't want to take the financial risk
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: of putting their business there. Also, have you ever listened
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: to black music before? They literally have songs that teach
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: people how to get away with stealing from Walmart so
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: they can resell what they stole. Not only that, they
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: teach these songs to their kids. Who the hell lets
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: their kids listen to a song that gives them instructions
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: on how to rob stores, and then thinks it's cute
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: to let them sing it on the way to Disneyland?
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: And by the way, this is one of the most
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: vanilla YouTube-safe videos that I have. Go onto Twitter and
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: you'll see these people teaching their kids much worse. And clearly,
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: they aren't incredibly impoverished if they can afford Disneyland. So
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: you expect business owners to want to take a risk
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: on serving this community?
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: They may be completely right that a person is acting
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: immorally or making wrong decisions, but focusing on immoral decisions
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: as the main things that need to be changed without
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: addressing the material conditions around them ensures that the problem
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: will never change. When people are not getting their basic
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: needs met and are not living dignified lives, they are
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: always more likely to commit crime and antisocial behavior.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: This is why I said that Alex is a communist,
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: because communists never understand the fundamentals of economics. or how
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: money works. Money is an abstraction that represents trade. The
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: reason why we have dollars instead of a bartering system
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: is because it's a lot faster to trade $ 40 for
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: a pair of shoes instead of trying to go find
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: something like a chicken to exchange for a pair of shoes.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: We couldn't have all this crazy technology if we didn't
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: have a simple way of trading and making transactions quick.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: So essentially, when you make a lot of money, it
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: means that a lot of people want to trade for
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: whatever you have. When you don't make a lot of money,
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: it means that you don't have a skill that's valuable
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: or something worth trading for, or you're an asshole who
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: people don't want to interact with. These things are fueled
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: by culture. It is culture that teaches you the value
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: of sticking through how much of a pain in the
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: ass it is to educate yourself. It's culture that teaches
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: you how to talk to others and be likable. And
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: it's culture that teaches you how to not waste money
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: on stupid shit. And by that, I mean that it's
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: very easy to be broke even if you make a
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: lot of money. Watch a little Caleb Hammer and you'll
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: see a ton of people on that show with huge
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: incomes that are in more financial trouble than people who
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: live in the ghetto.
• 23:24
  Speaker 14: It's pretty easy to make a list of problems and
• 23:26
  Speaker 14: then propose a solution that would solve all of them,
• 23:28
  Speaker 14: as long as you don't look too hard or know
• 23:30
  Speaker 14: too much. And I'm sorry, but big simple solutions are
• 23:33
  Speaker 14: very rare because everything is very complicated.
• 23:35
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: Alex is basically saying that giving people more money through
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: communism will solve all of their problems, but in reality
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: that's not going to work because their problems are more
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: complicated than that. These issues are not economic, they're cultural.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: And what's really disgusting to me is all the communist
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: propagandists out there like this guy who are routinely lying
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: to black people about the value of culture so they
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: can never make their way out of the hood.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: There's a reason why you don't see crime in rich communities.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: It's not because of the inherent traits of the people
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: that inhabit them. It's because they have basic material conditions met.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: They are not forced into committing crimes or immoral actions
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: out of necessity.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: This is a chicken or the egg problem. The bad
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: culture precedes the lack of money, not the other way around.
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: As for what he said about low crime rates in
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: rich communities, well, that's because people who are middle class
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: and up tend to see street crime as immoral and
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: bad for the cohesiveness of their community, whereas people in
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: the hood feel entitled to be able to commit crime.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: It's not a crime of necessity when you put soda
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: in a water cup or dine and dash on a bill.
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: There are so many changing consumer habits caught on camera
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: from this particular segment of the black community, and you
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: can't change someone's culture by giving them more money. In fact,
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: giving people free money tends to make their lives worse,
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: especially if they're addicts. Excess wealth can kill an addict.
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: But I don't think genuinely helping impoverished communities is the
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: point for these influencers. My demeanor towards the Hasan Piker
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: types or the Noah Sampson types has changed quite a
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: bit after Charlie Kirk was murdered and people cheered on
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: his death. And my demeanor continues to change as I
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: watch things like an innocent white high schooler getting murdered
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: for asking a black kid to change seats. followed by
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: the black community cheering on the murderer, rewarding the murderer
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: with $ 500, 000, swatting the family of the victim multiple times,
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: and creating a viral TikTok dance making fun of the
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: white kid being killed. A lot of people are waking
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: up to how incredibly racist certain parts of the black
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: community are. There's a section of that culture that's rotten,
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: and in my personal experience, no one is more mad
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: at this section of the culture than other black people
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: who have to live right next to those who behave
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: like this. It's the Noah Samsons, the Hassans, and the
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: Alexes of the world who are helping enable the hood behavior.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: And to further make that point, allow me to bring
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: up a video that Alex made about horseshoe theory called
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: Why the Far Right is Always Worse than the Far Left.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: If you don't know what horseshoe theory is, Ryan Long
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: made a video about it a while back.
• 25:53
  Speaker 7: When me and Brad first met, I didn't think we'd
• 25:55
  Speaker 7: get along, but it turns out we kind of agree
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: on everything.
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: Your racial identity is the most important thing.
• 25:59
  Speaker 7: Everything should be looked at through the lens of race.
• 26:01
  Speaker 18: Thanks, you owe me a Coke.
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: Basically, horseshoe theory states that people on the extremes of
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: the right and the left actually have a lot in common.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: They come to the same conclusions, but for different reasons.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: So in this video, Alex talks about which one is worse,
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: right-wing violence or left-wing violence.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Far-left groups are typically diverse, and there really isn't an out-group.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Everyone is generally accepted, except for the far-right. Leftists seldomly
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: commit acts of terrorism. They never intentionally target innocent civilians.
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: This is a straight-up lie.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Political radicalism and terrorism from the left is exceedingly common.
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: There are massive riots yearly caused by leftists. This year,
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: we had the ICE riots in January. Last year, we
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: had more ICE riots in July. For the past 10 years,
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: we've had numerous riots from Antifa and BLM, the biggest
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: one being the summer of 2020 riots. There's also been
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: numerous political assassinations or assassination attempts that were carried out
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: by leftists. I think they've tried to kill Trump four
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: different times. And there's an entire movement on social media
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: where radical leftists are trying to bait a mentally ill
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: person into killing the president. There was a successful attempt
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: on Charlie Kirk carried out by a leftist. There was
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: a successful assassination a few months before that on Melissa
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: Hortman of Minnesota, of all places, that was carried out
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: by a former staffer of Tim Wall's. Coincidentally, Melissa Hortman's
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: murder was extremely close to her voting no on a
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: bill that wanted to give medical care to illegals. Again,
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: this was done in Minnesota, the Somali capital of America,
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: where they were stealing a bunch of taxpayer money through
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: leering centers. It's also the same place where ICE found
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: out that like half of them were illegals. Last, leftists
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: tried to assassinate Brett Kavanaugh and caused a riot when
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: he was confirmed as a Supreme Court justice. So violence
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: from radical leftists is rampant in America, and Alex's counterexample
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: of right-wing violence is of course to bring up Charlottesville
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: because that's the only example they ever have. That shit
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: was nearly a decade ago. Surprisingly, he didn't mention January 6th.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: He then brings up the KKK, which is funny because
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: they were Democrats.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: The Ku Klux Klan terrorized and killed tens of thousands
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: in a campaign of racist violence and terrorism.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: And finally, he brings up a Wikipedia page, and of course, again,
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: he doesn't really go into any specific detail for any
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: of them, because then people would find out that these
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: examples of political violence were like a person who shot
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: people who also happened to have a MAGA hat in
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: his house.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: When it comes to violence.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: Far-left extremists have much different targets and philosophy compared to
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: the far-right. They're not out targeting random civilians or marginalized groups.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: They're going after fascists or the state.
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: Which is literally anyone who disagrees with them because anyone
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: with a different opinion, including other liberals, are called far-right.
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, you're even doing that in a smaller way
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: by saying numerous liberals are actually conservatives.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: Antifa is the common boogeyman and is painted as the
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: worst of the worst of leftist extremism.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: The left's version of a school shooter.
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: I mean, the left has mass shooters too?
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: Unless you are a fascist or a Nazi, which we
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: can all hopefully agree are universally bad ideologies, you have
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: nothing to fear. Their violence is directed towards fascists so
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: that they can never feel comfortable enough to march openly
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: and attack minority groups.
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: Got it.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: Murder is okay as long as the person is a
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: state employee, and if you're on the right, you have
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: nothing to worry about because Antifa only violently attacks Nazis.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: Except they call everyone who disagrees with them a Nazi.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Never feel threatened by a far-left person. Unless you are
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: an open racist or Nazi, which I hope you shouldn't
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: feel concerned for, then you are within the 99% of
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: people who are not a target. Far-right people are jaded, antisocial, violent,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: openly misogynistic, and racist. They are insecure and full of hatred.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: They are inherently dangerous and nihilistic. Identity politics and left
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: messaging can be cringe and annoying, but like what's worse?
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: There's a good Stavros joke about this that I can't
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: remember exactly, but it goes something like, the left extremist
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: person at worst might look strange to you, have a
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: weird hair color, and What do you mean Antifa carries AR-15s?
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: Seriously, has this guy done any research on this stuff?
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: He's trying to run cover for a literal domestic terrorist organization,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: yet conservatives are evil?
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: And let me be clear, I'm not doing any of
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: this justice because I'm trying to only stick to things
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: that are relevant to this topic, but make no mistake,
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: if I was reacting to Alex's videos live, I would
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: have to pause like every 10 seconds to debunk the
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: numerous factually incorrect things he says constantly.
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: Again, in my opinion, this is intentional.
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: I think that much like Hasan Piker, he is intentionally
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: trying to spread approval of political violence, as long as
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: it comes from the side that he agrees with.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: All roads lead to Hassan being a piece of shit.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: The reality is that when it comes to the far
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: right or the far left, it doesn't matter what flavor
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: of these you are, both groups of extremists suck, so
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: if you're saying that you'd rather have one over the other,
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: then I can only see that as an endorsement of
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: violence from that extremist side. On top of that, here's
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: something I've noticed after looking at his catalog and after
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: watching most of the videos that he's released, since there
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: aren't that many. Take a look at some of these titles.
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: Of course, I've already mentioned in the video why China
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: would smoke the US in a war. Then we have
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: the only solution for Taiwan is peaceful reunification. After that
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: is everything you've been told about Hong Kong is wrong.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: And last but not least, what China would be like
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: without communism. A video where Alex speaks very highly of communism.
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: And I kid you not, He says he loves China's
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: 1984-style mass surveillance and free speech restrictions.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Most Chinese people value safety and stability over the minor
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: sacrifice of perceived freedom. China has proven that Western neoliberal
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: democracy is not one size fits all. In this alternative government,
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: you might have the freedom to talk shit about your
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: government online about how shitty they are from your slum
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: outside Shanghai. Or you could live in the current world
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: where a vast majority of the things that you'd be
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: complaining about would already be solved. For all the flack
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: that China gets for its surveillance, China is incredibly safe
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: for it and the vast majority of Chinese people don't
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: mind at all. The sacrifice that you make to have
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: surveillance is one that Chinese people are okay with and
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: are willing to trade for the massive amount of freedom
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: granted by safety. Being able to go about your day
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: without fear of crime at all times is a massive
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: freedom that most Westerners don't have.
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: Weird because Japan was able to achieve high levels of
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: safety without constantly filming everything. I like how he talks
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: about how no one is complaining about surveillance right after
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: he talks about how there's no free speech in China.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: So I'm noticing a pattern of behavior here, and it's
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: a pattern that numerous other people have noticed too.
• 32:08
  Speaker 16: Are we dealing with paid traitors that are being funded
• 32:12
  Speaker 16: by the Communist Party of China to put out Chinese
• 32:15
  Speaker 16: propaganda and CCP talking points, and at the same time
• 32:19
  Speaker 16: denigrate the West? They're being paid to do the government
• 32:22
  Speaker 16: fluff pieces, so if you ever see a video on
• 32:23
  Speaker 16: them about like, Wow, look how China's housing so many people. Wow,
• 32:27
  Speaker 16: China's farmlands are amazing. Wow, look at the infrastructure. That's
• 32:31
  Speaker 16: all paid for. That's all nonsense. You can just, you know,
• 32:34
  Speaker 16: understand where it's coming from.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: So the great thing about the internet is that it
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: removes the financial barrier to entry that media used to have,
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: and it allows anyone to become a popular figure and
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: criticize whatever they want with very minimal censorship compared to
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: legacy media. This has been an excellent benefit to society. However,
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: the benefits of the internet do not come without costs,
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: one of them being that the lack of a barrier
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: to entry as well as the gatekeeping as well as
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: the limited access to international media that previous generations had
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: also makes it incredibly easy for foreign countries to influence
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: the politics of America. I've talked before about Westerners going
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: over to Japan to promote leftism in other videos, and
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: the reason I did that was so people would watch
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: those videos and read between the lines and think, hey,
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: what foreign countries are trying to influence the US?
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: Well, one of them is China.
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: This video was made by Serpenza five years ago, and
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: he does give some examples of paid shills, but actually,
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: this is such a common thing that I don't even
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: need to use his examples of Chinese shills to make
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: my point because I have my own. This is Jason,
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: and he runs a channel called Living in China, and
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: when you go to his channel page, you notice that
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: literally every video is like, China is the best country
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: in the world.
• 33:43
  Speaker 11: This is crazy. I've seen driverless cars, but never a
• 33:47
  Speaker 11: driverless truck carrying containers. We're now at the Tuanshan Container
• 33:53
  Speaker 11: Terminal of the Ningbo Zhoushan Port. Two massive wind turbines
• 33:58
  Speaker 11: spinning steadily and solar panels blanketing warehouse rooftops. They generate
• 34:04
  Speaker 11: nearly 30 million kilowatt hours of energy. clean electricity each year.
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: China's game-changing port of the future. America is done. Now,
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: I happen to have watched this video, and it absolutely
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: has nothing to do with America. He just wrote that
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: in the title, too. I imagine shit on the West,
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: because what these propagandists have to do is make China
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: seem like a utopia, and the West seem like a shithole.
• 34:29
  Speaker 8: In my conscience, I have already become Chinese.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: It's fucking sick.
• 34:34
  Speaker 8: You have 1950s Soviet-era building blocks next to the Gucci store.
• 34:42
  Speaker 8: You have met me at a very Chinese time in
• 34:44
  Speaker 8: my live chat.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: But of course, Jason, or living in China, is not American.
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: He's British, and every so often he returns to England
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: with his Chinese wife and his Chinese green card. And
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: when he makes content there, he does nothing but talk
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: about how bad England is.
• 34:58
  Speaker 11: Welcome back to broken Britain.
• 35:01
  Speaker 19: Look at the trash. Oh my God, look at the
• 35:04
  Speaker 19: state of this. How old is this train even? Oh
• 35:08
  Speaker 19: my god, look at all this chewing gum on the floor.
• 35:11
  Speaker 19: And some more homeless people. I wanna go back to
• 35:14
  Speaker 19: China already.
• 35:15
  Speaker 15: You gotta use cash!
• 35:17
  Speaker 11: Look at this outdated system, gotta use cash!
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, this video is essentially 20 minutes of him
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: saying that England is the worst place in the world,
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: and he's made it multiple times.
• 35:27
  Speaker 19: I think it's just after I've been living in China
• 35:29
  Speaker 19: for 13 years that I've got used to their insane infrastructure.
• 35:35
  Speaker 19: the pristine, clean streets, the efficiency of everything. And then
• 35:39
  Speaker 19: you just come back to here, and it's just like,
• 35:43
  Speaker 19: it's as if we've gone back in time 20 years.
• 35:46
  Speaker 19: Everything's grim. I mean, just look at this. You might
• 35:48
  Speaker 19: think that it's nighttime. It's 3 p.m.
• 35:51
  Speaker 5: Why is it dark like this?
• 35:52
  Speaker 19: What's going on?
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: Bro, this guy stubs his toe and he'll say it
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: was caused by the fall of the West. Now, I'm
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: not going to say that England doesn't have its problems,
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: but also, ironically... He's complaining about Britain being ugly on
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: one of the most photogenic and clean streets I've ever seen.
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: I've also noticed that his channel does okay, but not
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: well enough to afford some of the luxuries that I've
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: seen in his videos. And what I mean by that
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: is that the travel fees alone probably cost more than
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: the video makes, or cut significantly into the portion of
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: income that he would take home. His monthly views aren't
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: that great, yet this guy is flying his whole family
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: business class on an international flight.
• 36:28
  Speaker 19: Cheers to China.
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, this has to be like $ 10, 000 in plane tickets.
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: There's no way he's paying for that on YouTube ad
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: revenue and the occasional sponsor. Here's something else that's interesting.
• 36:38
  Speaker 16: I have a question. Why is it that these very pro-CCP,
• 36:43
  Speaker 16: anti-Western YouTubers can't speak Chinese? Although I don't speak a
• 36:47
  Speaker 16: lot of Chinese, I've had some real fun times with
• 36:49
  Speaker 16: Chinese people. I'm not joking. This is true. They can't
• 36:52
  Speaker 16: speak a lick of Chinese. If you are living in
• 36:55
  Speaker 16: a country like China where English... is very few and
• 36:59
  Speaker 16: far between, unless you live in some big first-tier city.
• 37:02
  Speaker 16: You kind of need to know Chinese to get around,
• 37:05
  Speaker 16: so it's kind of bizarre that these guys haven't learned
• 37:07
  Speaker 16: just even the basics, other than, like, ni hao and,
• 37:10
  Speaker 16: you know, I need a beer or whatever it is.
• 37:13
  Speaker 5: Wow, that's weird.
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: I wonder where I've seen that before. A leftist foreigner
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: moves to an Asian country, does nothing but glaze tourist areas,
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: and tries to cover up societal problems that are inconvenient
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: for the government.
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: They aren't all British, are they?
• 37:25
  Speaker 16: How is it that you can claim to know anything
• 37:27
  Speaker 16: about a culture and a country if you cannot speak
• 37:31
  Speaker 16: the language? Especially when you don't have transparent news coming
• 37:36
  Speaker 16: out of said country that's translated into your language.
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: Right, or how are you supposed to comment on things
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: like politics if you don't speak the language? Now, I've
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: looked around on Jason's channel, and I've had a friend
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: who is incredibly good at Chinese also look around Jason's channel,
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: and we can't find any examples of him speaking Chinese
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: for more than a sentence or two.
• 37:53
  Speaker 5: Usually, he just says single words like thank you.
• 37:56
  Speaker 11: He did do an interview on Chinese TV.
• 38:00
  Speaker 19: Actually, he's done multiple interviews on.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: Chinese TV.
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: But of course, those are in English. Again, this sounds familiar.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: So like I said with Chris Broad and Trash Taste,
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: there are so many people who pretend to be fluent
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: in a language despite being nowhere near it, that unless
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: there are explicit examples of them speaking a lot of
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: that second language, I tend to think that their proficiency
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: is not that high. Plus, Asian languages like Japanese and
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: Chinese are so hard to learn for an English speaker
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: that if you spoke it, you definitely would be showing
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: it off in videos, and every person who I know
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: who can has done that. It's actually something I've been
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: waiting to do with Japanese, but I'm not quite there yet. Now,
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: when it comes to politics, here's my point. How do
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: you make tons of videos saying that China is the
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: greatest place on the planet if you can't actually fact-check
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: any of the complex information and the language of the
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: country that you're talking about?
• 39:09
  Speaker 5: Here's what I mean.
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: I've mentioned before that Chris Broad, as well as many
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: other people, are saying that Japan has a huge birthing crisis,
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: and because of that, there are many job openings and
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: the only way to fill them is to dilute Japanese
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: culture with foreigners.
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: The number of foreigners working in Japan hits an all-time high.
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: It's quite a cool thing to see. Much needed, given the.
• 39:29
  Speaker 19: decline of population because there just aren't enough young people
• 39:32
  Speaker 19: in Japan to fill all the jobs, the vacancies that
• 39:34
  Speaker 19: are popping up in convenience stores and restaurants and whatnot.
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: Now recently I just so happened to see one of
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: those I'm Japanese and my life sucks videos For some reason,
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: it's a popular form of misery porn content that was
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: started by a channel called Ask Japan. Anyway, this YouTuber
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: makes an interesting point about the Japanese job market.
• 39:50
  Speaker 10: If you don't know what a black company is, it's
• 39:53
  Speaker 10: basically Japanese slave labor.
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: They make you work ridiculous hours, they pay you very little,
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: and if you try to quit, they'll incessantly harass you
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: and try to make it very hard for you to
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: find new employment. So her claim is that yes, there
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: are a lot of job openings in Japan, but most
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: of them are slave labor jobs from abusive companies. And
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: by the way, I'm going to give a very lukewarm
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: take here by saying that I think a major cause
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: of the Japanese birthing crisis is the ridiculous overtime hours
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: that lots of Japanese people work. So you have a
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: company that's incredibly toxic, Japanese people don't want to work there,
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: and if that was left alone, what would naturally happen
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: is that business would either die because they have no workers,
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: or they would have to change their policies to encourage
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: more Japanese people to join. However, thanks to endless foreigners
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: from China and South Asia, we now have people who
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: will fill those slave labor positions who are easy to
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: mislead because they aren't native speakers of Japanese and because
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: they don't have citizenship rights. What if it's the case
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: that bringing in tons of foreigners to fill in those
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: job openings is actually helping enable companies to enforce toxic
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: work hours because they can just hire a foreigner if
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: Japanese people don't want to work there, and thus the
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: crazy overtime hours must stay. It could be the case
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: that the thing that they're trying to use to cure
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: the birthing crisis is actually making it worse because it's
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: lowering the bargaining power of Japanese workers to the extent
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: where they can't bargain for enough free time to build families.
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: How would someone like, say, Chris Broad be able to
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: research these things before he talks about it on his podcast?
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: If you can't read or speak Japanese on a level
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: higher than a kid in elementary school, I mean, I
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: can't fact-check it either, yet. So this is just guesswork
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: on my end, but bringing this full circle and back
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: to the US, this is why I say that language
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: proficiency is important when it comes to America, and this
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: is why I think our standards for citizenship rights from
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: naturalization are too low. Not only should you have to
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: have lived in America for 10 years, you should also
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: have to pass a high-level English proficiency test that includes speaking, reading,
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: and writing, and because when you become a citizen, you
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: get the right to vote, and you should not be
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: allowed to vote if you don't speak English at the
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: level of an adult. Now for nuance, let me just
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: say that yes, you already have to pass an English
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: test to become a citizen in the US, but the
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: standards are a complete joke. Look at these typical questions
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: that are asked. Can you tell me your name? Can
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: you read one sentence? Do you have any questions? Are
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: you fucking kidding me? Any beginner language learner could answer
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: these questions, especially because you can just memorize them. This
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: is multiple years of English study away from the language
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: proficiency of an adult. How is it that the government
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: can figure out how to give us all these advanced
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: English tests just to get out of high school, but
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: the standard for passing a citizenship test is, can you
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: tell me your name? I mean, even for the high
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: school exit exam, you have to write a full essay,
• 42:52
  Speaker 3: but for a citizenship test, a test that gives you
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: voting rights, you just have to read and write one sentence?
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: One of the responsibilities of a citizen is jury duty.
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: Is this enough language proficiency to determine if someone is
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: guilty of a crime or not? Anyway, going back to China,
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: take a look at this.
• 43:08
  Speaker 20: Money drives us all, but to some, it means more.
• 43:12
  Speaker 20: Money can be enough to sell your reputation, even your
• 43:15
  Speaker 20: very identity, who you are deep inside. Enter the white
• 43:19
  Speaker 20: monkey job. With Chinese products, it's well known that quality
• 43:22
  Speaker 20: has never been the main accolade for the term made
• 43:25
  Speaker 20: in China. However, if Chinese people see that not only
• 43:29
  Speaker 20: was the product or company made by someone overseas, but
• 43:32
  Speaker 20: also consumed by foreigners, the perceived value of the product skyrockets.
• 43:37
  Speaker 20: Food safety and quality is a huge issue in China,
• 43:40
  Speaker 20: and people are all too aware of the scandals involving
• 43:43
  Speaker 20: fake ingredients, tainted gutter oil, the dangerous addition of chemicals, etc.
• 43:48
  Speaker 20: So having a foreigner be the CEO of a Chinese
• 43:51
  Speaker 20: food company can not only dupe potential customers into thinking
• 43:55
  Speaker 20: that a product is safe, but also that classy foreigners
• 43:58
  Speaker 20: like Richard from England even use it.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: I am Richard from England.
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: You know, I've been watching non-stop videos for about a
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: week of people talking about how incredible of a place
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: the tourist areas in China are, but I have to
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: say that isn't it interesting that Chinese people see their
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: own kind is so untrustworthy that they have to pay
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: a white person to say a product is good or
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: people won't buy it? I mean, also in America, the
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: words made in China tend to mean that the product
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: is low quality. One more thing before I go back
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: to Alex, which is that in China, it is illegal
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: to go on YouTube. However, the Chinese government is not stupid.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: They know that people can just use a VPN or
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: whatever to access YouTube. So part of this white monkey
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: job YouTuber strategy is to flood YouTube with Westerners saying
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: that China is great and the West is bad. Notice
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: how Jason's videos have Chinese subtitles on them.
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: Who are those for?
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: Why would a Westerner be expecting Chinese people who don't
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: speak English to be watching his content if YouTube is
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: blocked in China. So a part of the target audience
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: for content like this is Chinese people who got around
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: the firewall.
• 45:07
  Speaker 16: If local Chinese people do manage to get outside of
• 45:11
  Speaker 16: the Great Firewall of China on the internet and they
• 45:13
  Speaker 16: start looking up YouTube videos and things about China, if
• 45:16
  Speaker 16: they come across these guys spouting the Communist Party propaganda,
• 45:21
  Speaker 16: they will then reinforce what they think about China. They
• 45:26
  Speaker 16: want that. reinforcement to go back. So they want a
• 45:29
  Speaker 16: local Chinese person to go outside the Great Firewall, watch
• 45:32
  Speaker 16: a video about China, and there's a foreigner saying, what
• 45:35
  Speaker 16: the Chinese government is doing is 100% correct, it's amazing,
• 45:39
  Speaker 16: the West is bad. And they're like, wow, our government
• 45:42
  Speaker 16: was right all along, you know? But more importantly, they
• 45:46
  Speaker 16: take these videos that these Westerners make, and then they
• 45:49
  Speaker 16: take them from YouTube, they interview them and stuff, and
• 45:51
  Speaker 16: they put them onto CGTN, CCTV, all the local big
• 45:57
  Speaker 16: state-run media in order to, once again, push this narrative
• 46:02
  Speaker 16: and add credence to what the Chinese government is saying.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: Now, I really don't care what China does when it
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: comes to propagandizing their populace. That's none of my business,
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: and it's their issue to resolve, not America's. What I
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: do care about, though, is them trying to use paid
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: shills to influence Western politics. Going back to Alex, Mr.
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: White Savior of all the minority communities in America, which
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: is really funny considering all the China content, because Chinese
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: people are notorious for being racist against black people.
• 46:28
  Speaker 16: I was, however, incredibly shocked when moving to China to
• 46:32
  Speaker 16: see just how blatantly open racism was. For instance, when
• 46:36
  Speaker 16: introducing myself to Chinese people, I would be asked where
• 46:39
  Speaker 16: I'm from. When I would say that I was South African,
• 46:42
  Speaker 16: I would 100% of the time get a very confused,
• 46:46
  Speaker 16: but you're not black response. And, you know, after a
• 46:50
  Speaker 16: lengthy explanation as to why I wasn't black, I'd usually
• 46:54
  Speaker 16: get a good because black people are bad type of response.
• 46:58
  Speaker 16: This was the attitude of the vast majority of people
• 47:02
  Speaker 16: in mainland China.
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: But speaking of all this, I find Alex's channel to
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: be very suspicious, and I think it's designed to demean
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: all of American politics, not just Republicans. Leftists are simply
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: the most likely people to agree with communism, but make
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: no mistake, He shits on Democrats, too, unless they're a
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: domestic terrorist organization like Antifa.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: The centrist Democratic Party is just as supportive of these
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: conservative right-wing policies towards crime.
• 47:25
  Speaker 10: We must take back the streets. It doesn't matter whether
• 47:30
  Speaker 10: or not the person that is accosting your son or
• 47:32
  Speaker 10: daughter or my son or daughter, my wife, your husband...
• 47:36
  Speaker 10: My mother, your parents, it doesn't matter whether or not
• 47:39
  Speaker 10: they were deprived as a youth. It doesn't matter whether
• 47:42
  Speaker 10: or not they had no background that enabled them to
• 47:44
  Speaker 10: become socialized into the fabric of society. It doesn't matter
• 47:47
  Speaker 10: whether or not they're the victims of society. The end
• 47:50
  Speaker 10: result is they're about to knock my mother on the
• 47:52
  Speaker 10: head with a lead pipe, shoot my sister, beat up
• 47:54
  Speaker 10: my wife, take on my sons.
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: Damn, Biden used to be based before he became a vegetable.
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: Holy shit, that guy had a bigger fallout than Don Lemon.
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: But the only politician I've seen Alex compliment... is the
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: communism-friendly politician Bernie Sanders. Now, going back to what I
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: was saying about language, for nuance, I will say that, shockingly,
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: there actually is a video I found of Alex speaking Chinese.
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: To add more nuance, the thing about language is that
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: you can't actually say what someone's skill level is unless
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: you're proficient in the language yourself. So after finding this video,
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: I contacted my Chinese-speaking friend and she told me that
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: his Chinese level is terrible. Though I will extend some
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: respect because he does have a full video showing his
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: ability to speak with native speakers, which is 10 times
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: more than what that long-term tourist Chris Broad has done
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: when it comes to speaking Japanese. But as for Alex,
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: he can't even understand basic questions without a translator.
• 48:59
  Speaker 5: I was told his response was.
• 49:03
  Speaker 10: Him effectively saying, I is 26.
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: So again, I appreciate the transparency, but this video wasn't
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: made that long ago. If he's having trouble with how
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: old are you, then he's a beginner and about six
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: years of intense study from the kind of language skill
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: it would take to be able to accurately comment on
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: Chinese politics. But of course, this won't stop him from
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: pretending that he is super fluent in Chinese and super
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: knowledgeable about the culture.
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: Many Western leftist commentators will acknowledge Chinese achievements, but still
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: feel the need to pander to liberal sensibilities and always
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: put an asterisk besides their compliments But the majority of
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: these people have spent zero time in the actual countries
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: they're speaking about, don't speak the language, nor understand the
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: national conditions or culture of these places outside the West.
• 49:49
  Speaker 5: Every time. Every time these people do this shit.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: You guys have no idea how many people on social
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: media pretend to be fluent in languages that they are
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: either a beginner or an intermediate at. It's been a
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: little over a year since Alex spoke Chinese in that video.
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: There is no way he magically went from beginner to,
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: I can pass college courses in Chinese now, in a year.
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: That's a multi-year journey, and then after that, you would
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: have to spend years educating yourself on these topics in Chinese.
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: Outside of that, what are the odds an incredibly small
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: travel channel would move exclusively to making videos about how
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: great China is and how much Westerners suck? Well, I mean, yes,
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: the Hassan radicalization pipeline is a part of it, and
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: Hassan does glaze China like crazy, including Mao.
• 50:34
  Speaker 7: I got stopped by a cop who thought I was
• 50:36
  Speaker 7: like making fun of Mao Zedong, which I never would.
• 50:40
  Speaker 5: And never will.
• 50:40
  Speaker 7: Mao Zedong is one of the great leaders of this world,
• 50:47
  Speaker 7: a man who changed the entire universe. The People's Republic
• 50:52
  Speaker 7: of China would not exist without Mao Zedong.
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: I've also watched Alex run cover for Mao. Again, literally
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: every video is him glazing China and shitting on the West.
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: I mentioned that video where he is gleefully fantasizing about
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: America losing a war with China. Bro, you live here.
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: Why would you want your country to lose? And that's
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: not the only video like that. Here he is again
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: expressing absolute joy at the thought of the West collapsing.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: The era of Western global domination is over. The Global
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: South has finally become powerful enough to match and even
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: surpass the United States and its European allies in many ways.
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: This revolution in world politics has become possible through the
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: alliance of countries called BRICS, representing its founding members of Brazil, Russia, India, China,
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: and South Africa.
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: Really, this is an entire video of him promoting a
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: Chinese endorsed currency that is competitive to the dollar as
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: a world currency. I don't think there are any morals
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: behind this one. It's basically just an ad for China dollars.
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: That's not the only advertising he does. Remember how we
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: talked about how great he thinks solar panels are? Well,
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: what are solar panels made of? Rare earth metals. Also,
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: what do windmills need? That's right, rare earth metals. How
• 51:57
  Speaker 3: about electric cars? Take a guess.
• 51:59
  Speaker 13: There are four specific rare earths that are used to
• 52:02
  Speaker 13: make super strong permanent magnets that are used in motors
• 52:07
  Speaker 13: for electric vehicles and for wind turbines. So that is
• 52:12
  Speaker 13: key for most nations, zero carbon targets and cutting greenhouse gases.
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: In fact, a lot of our technology runs on them.
• 52:20
  Speaker 3: Guess who won't shut up about China being the lead
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: producer of this material?
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: All modern technologies from batteries, electric vehicles, solar panels, to
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: most importantly, All forms of modern weaponry require large amounts
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: of rare earth minerals. While they may be abundant across
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: the globe, they are very difficult to refine into usable
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: raw material for production. It's a long and environmentally destructive
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: process that the U.S. was happy to shift to China
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: when the country wasn't viewed by the U.S.
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: As a threat.
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: Now, however, China holds a near monopoly on both rare
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: earth mineral extraction and mining. Rare earth minerals are the
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: most important resource of the 21st century. Whether it be
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: renewable energy, electric vehicles, or almost all forms of modern
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: missiles and weaponry, you need rare earth minerals, and the
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: BRICS alliance has a dominant 72% control of rare earth reserves.
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: On top of that, even if the West has rare
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: earth minerals, they have no capacity to refine them as
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: China alone controls 92% of all rare earth mineral refining,
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: which is essentially a monopoly.
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: Wait, I thought monopolies are why capitalism is bad. I
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: will also say when it comes to solar panels, for
• 53:21
  Speaker 3: all the people, particularly on the left, who are asking
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: why don't we invest more into this technology, Another factor
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: could be the fact that we don't have the infrastructure
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: to build that amount of solar panels in the U.S.,
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: so an investment in solar is an investment in.
• 53:34
  Speaker 5: China, and we are currently enemies with China.
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: As renewable energy sources like solar, hydro, and wind are
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: becoming more affordable and accessible, powering Africa's growing economies. China
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: is a leader in these industries, and there are massive
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: solar panel arrays in Morocco, Egypt.
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: Kenya, and Zambia.
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: Not to say that this is the reason, I'm just
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: saying that understand there are multiple factors at play here.
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: For example, I'm a big fan of nuclear power, however, realistically,
• 53:59
  Speaker 3: the startup capital is a lot, so other things get built,
• 54:02
  Speaker 3: even if it's cheaper in the long term. So if
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: we're trying to garner support for a new thing that
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: we want, we need to understand the roadblocks and the
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: costs versus benefits. Like I said, I am a fan
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: of solar, but what I do find weird in this
• 54:14
  Speaker 3: particular case is Alex's constant insistence on pushing people towards
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: things that will make China a lot of money. It's
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: a weird coincidence considering the context of the whole situation,
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: Not to mention him falsely framing Jeff Bezos as a
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: conservative numerous times in his videos. What, is Amazon competitive
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: with some Chinese online store? Is there some Chinese electric
• 54:35
  Speaker 3: car company that's competitive with Tesla? Is that why he
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: accused Elon of being a conservative despite Elon losing his
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: shit over Americans being mad at H1B legislation a while back?
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: Alex is basically just saying that you're far right if
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: you aren't a communist. But really, just like Jason from
• 54:50
  Speaker 3: Living in China, my question is, how does Alex make
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: a living? In one of his videos, he said that
• 54:56
  Speaker 3: YouTube was his only income, and in a different video,
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: he said that he lives in Washington, D.C. How does
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: he afford that on a channel that only gets a
• 55:03
  Speaker 3: few hundred thousand views, and a Patreon that makes very little?
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: So when it's established that China pays for Westerners to
• 55:09
  Speaker 3: make propaganda, and I don't see a strong revenue source
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: for a creator, I start to get very suspicious. Whether
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: or not Alex is one of these white monkey influencers,
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: I certainly think he's a traitor to the U.S., and
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: if he loves China so much, he should go live there.
• 55:22
  Speaker 3: Outside of this, I really think a reason why people
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: do bad things is because they can't succeed otherwise, especially
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: when it comes to content creation. Talentless individuals always try
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: to cheat or use shortcuts to get ahead. Alex's videos
• 55:35
  Speaker 3: aren't that hard to make. He's just doing top 10
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: lists on why Republicans suck that can be scripted in seconds.
• 55:40
  Speaker 3: That's why WatchMojo does the top 10 videos. They're super
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: easy to write. His fact-checking ability is also garbage, and
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: to add to my argument.
• 55:48
  Speaker 5: That he's lazy.
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: His takes are very one-sided positions that lack critical thinking
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: or nuance, which again, makes his videos even easier to
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: write because he doesn't have to take the time to
• 55:58
  Speaker 3: think about how his opponents might try to invalidate his arguments.
• 56:02
  Speaker 3: Usually people don't engage with this type of content because
• 56:04
  Speaker 3: they find it boring.
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: Targets are those who are perpetuating... This video sucks. I
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: don't think this video sucks at all. I can't believe
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: Hasan read that comment. That was the alt-right versus the
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: radical left video. where he said that violence on the
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: right is bad, but violence on the left is cool
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: because they only attack Nazis. My point is that audiences
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: typically don't like presentations that are like this, and contrary
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: to popular belief, if you get numerous things wrong like
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: Alex does, and I mean these things are obviously wrong,
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: people won't watch you. Unless, unless you're appealing to radicals.
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: This is because usually radicalized groups have tons of free
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: time to watch content because they aren't well socialized, so
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: they don't have something that would take up a lot
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: of their time like a job. And they're low in open-mindedness,
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: so they very rarely view new ideas that are out
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: of their comfort zone. And because of that, they will
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: become obsessive and watch everything you make, as long as
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: you say exactly what they believe and never step out
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: of line. This is why so many people cater to
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: the ghetto part of the black community, or the free
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: Palestine people, or the T part of LGBT, or college-educated
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: white women. Those groups have massive communities of radicals. Going
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: back to Hank Green, by the way, his appearance came
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: from a video where he's laughing at solar panel roadways.
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: But continuing his earlier point about simple solutions not working
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: because things tend to be incredibly complex, I think he
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: says something interesting here in reference to that.
• 57:24
  Speaker 14: Stories of big simple solutions, once they aren't implemented, either
• 57:27
  Speaker 14: rely on you realizing that it's more complicated, or thinking
• 57:30
  Speaker 14: that there's some super powerful cabal that's preventing us from
• 57:34
  Speaker 14: doing the simple thing. Which is why a lot of
• 57:35
  Speaker 14: the times conversation about big simple solutions interfaces with conspiracy theory.
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: Right, so what's happening here is that Alex says that
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: the big simple solution to all of society's problems is
• 57:46
  Speaker 3: just to give people more money. But that can't happen
• 57:48
  Speaker 3: because the evil cabal called the Republican Party is standing
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: in the way. I have to say that this type
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: of argumentation set in front of the right group will
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: make you shitloads of money. The book The 48 Laws
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: of Power talks about how to trick people into giving
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: you money with this line of thinking, in reference to
• 58:04
  Speaker 3: making a cult. The secret is to take advantage of
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: people's desperation by providing some sort of cure-all, like saying
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: that looking at moonlight for 10 minutes a day solves
• 58:13
  Speaker 3: all of your problems, but only if you look at
• 58:15
  Speaker 3: it through this special glass that no one wants you
• 58:17
  Speaker 3: to know about, but conveniently, I happen to sell it.
• 58:20
  Speaker 3: Then it'll be like $ 10 because that's the amount of
• 58:23
  Speaker 3: money that people are most willing to part with. or
• 58:25
  Speaker 3: it'll be horrendously overpriced because the high price will cause
• 58:28
  Speaker 3: people to incorrectly assume that the snake oil is valuable.
• 58:31
  Speaker 3: You can learn about that strategy in a book called Influence.
• 58:34
  Speaker 3: And it's important to learn this stuff because these particular
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: cult tactics are used very frequently. So people like Alex
• 58:40
  Speaker 3: or Hasan Piker will take advantage of this psychology and
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: not only hide the actual solutions to these people's problems,
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: in fact, the 48 Laws of Power specifically tells you
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: to try to manipulate people who don't want to do
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: the real hard work that it takes to change. So
• 58:53
  Speaker 3: people like this not only actively hide the actual solutions,
• 58:56
  Speaker 3: but they will also attack people who provide the answers. Because,
• 59:00
  Speaker 3: you know, if the black community listened to people like
• 59:02
  Speaker 3: Andre Williams, instead of calling him all sorts of names,
• 59:05
  Speaker 3: they would actually improve and better their lives. And if
• 59:08
  Speaker 3: that happened, grifters like Javid.
• 59:30
  Speaker 7: But the one thing that they don't call me is
• 59:32
  Speaker 7: a liar.
• 59:33
  Speaker 3: Says the guy who's constantly called a liar. This has
• 59:36
  Speaker 3: to be rage bait. There's no way he tried to
• 59:38
  Speaker 3: get away with saying that after a huge drama where
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: people called him out for denying that he shocked his
• 59:43
  Speaker 3: dog on maximum voltage when he obviously did. So the
• 59:47
  Speaker 3: way you prevent this grift is to foster a culture
• 59:49
  Speaker 3: where people are told the truth.
• 59:51
  Speaker 5: These people most.
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: Often adopt radical behaviors because they aren't successful at getting
• 59:56
  Speaker 3: what they want. Let me put it this way. I
• 59:58
  Speaker 3: made a video about Chris Broad and Connor from Trash
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: Taste living in Japan and not being able to speak
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: Japanese despite being there and enjoying the amenities of that
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: country for a very long time. And to their credit,
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 3: Connor has probably spent a hundred hours studying Japanese. That's
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 3: a lot of work. Chris Broad has probably spent hundreds
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: of hours working on his Japanese. Again, that's also a
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: lot of work. But the problem is that fluency in
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: Japanese takes thousands of hours of practice, not hundreds. And
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 3: if you don't understand that conceptually, then you're going to
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: have a very hard time building enough skill to get
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 3: the things that you want in life, as well as,
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 3: along the way, there will be many people who will
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: swipe money away from you by lying and saying that
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: they have a simple solution to your problem, and especially
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: in the language community. Let me just say that people
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: make disgusting amounts of money by lying and saying that
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 3: their special course will make you fluent in six months,
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: when in reality, Fluency takes years of practice. Now, it
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: kind of sucks to hear all of this because hundreds
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 3: of hours of study sounds like a lot of work.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 3: That's already hard enough and it's downright depressing to hear
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: that the actual workload is 10 times that. But if
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 3: you really think about it, if you just buckle down
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 3: and do the hard work right away, you can save
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 3: yourself years of time from failing over and over again
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 3: by constantly trying to take shortcuts to get what you want.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 3: Think of how many people go on and off crash
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 3: diets for like a decade or two Instead of just
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 3: doing the long-term hard work of changing their lifestyle habits,
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 3: think about how, oftentimes, the people who are constantly trying
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 3: to take shortcuts end up worse off than someone who
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 3: just started out because they have to spend months on
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 3: learning bad habits that they adopted from previous failures. But
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: as difficult as it sounds, it's not impossible. Success is
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: a battle of endurance. The battle is enduring the multiple
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 3: years that it takes to actually get good at a skill. However,
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 3: with the right strategy, you can make this endurance challenge
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 3: a lot easier. And the way you do that is
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 3: just to try to incorporate your studying into as much
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 3: of your everyday life as possible instead of setting up
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: like a specific time to study each day. And the
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 3: idea is that you get so good at this that
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 3: you don't recognize you're even working. And I can easily
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: get an hour or close to an hour of studying
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 3: Japanese just by combining lessons with my morning routine. So
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 3: just by waking up, I've already done an hour of work.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: Then if I need to set extra time aside, I
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: can do that. But the point is to try to
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 3: get as much done while you're doing other stuff so
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 3: that you aren't sitting around at the end of the
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 3: day saying, oh my god, I still have three hours
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 3: of practice to do. You might survive doing that for
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: a few months, but when it comes to stuff that
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: takes multiple years to learn, you need to strategize more effectively,
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: especially when your motivation gets tested by changing life circumstances.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 3: And last, you want to make it progressively easier and
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 3: easier to access your study material so it's as close
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: to one click away as possible, because you'll study a
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: lot more if it only takes you 10 seconds to
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: get to your material, as opposed to 10 minutes, so
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: try to keep as much of your materials on your
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: phone as possible. Anyway, thanks for watching, follow me on Twitter,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 3: and I'll see you in the next video.
