• 0:01
  This is HBr News number four one one, Amazon shuts down, Lewis Rossman,
• 0:07
  submarine implodes, woman kills her uber driver when we discussed the stories of
• 0:11
  the week and give it the Badge of treatment. Hello everybody, and welcome
• 0:18
  to High Badge Radio. I hope you guys are doing well this week and
• 0:21
  that you are laughing at all of this absurdity so that you are not consumed
• 0:24
  by it. I am your host, Brian. I am joined by,
• 0:27
  as always, our co hosts, Doctor Randa mcham Hannah Waalen, and Mike
• 0:32
  j And as a special bonus, you might notice, I have Jojo on
• 0:37
  camera and he is just lounging in his dog bed, chilling out. I
• 0:43
  thought that maybe, you know, if there's nothing else to look at,
• 0:45
  you can look at Jojo hanging out there. He's not dead, he's not
• 0:50
  even asleep. He's just tired because we went for a pretty long walk forehand,
• 0:54
  and I want to make sure that he was good and tired before starting
• 0:58
  the show so that he wouldn't be interrupting. So anyway, we have a
• 1:02
  great show line for you guys today, so please be sure to join us
• 1:04
  in the comments section and hang out because there's gonna be a lot to talk
• 1:08
  about. What we typically do is I try to find some interesting stories that
• 1:14
  we can put a spin on or look at from our kind of unique perspective
• 1:19
  and sort of chime in. It's not always like necessarily men's issues, although
• 1:25
  we do report on those when we have anything that comes out of it.
• 1:29
  But you know, it is sort of like looking at the broader culture and
• 1:32
  how you know, the sort of misry it feeds into it in many different
• 1:38
  ways. So anyway, we have a great show line up for you guys
• 1:42
  today, so please be sure to like let us know your thoughts in the
• 1:44
  comments after the show and in the live chat. So on today's show,
• 1:49
  we're gonna be talking about this YouTuber I guess. But he's also an advocate
• 1:53
  for the right to repair, which some of you guys might know about.
• 1:57
  It's kind of like this idea that you know, if we buy a product,
• 2:00
  it belongs to us and we should have the right to repair it or
• 2:05
  modified or whatever because it's our property. His name is Lewis Rossman. He
• 2:08
  was the man who broke the story on the story that we covered last week
• 2:13
  where a man was locked out of his home by Amazon because he had one
• 2:15
  of those smart houses, and so his account with Amazon was canceled because he
• 2:23
  exposed what happened here. We're also going to be talking about the Titan submarine,
• 2:29
  which I know everybody was talking about, and there's memes everywhere and all
• 2:31
  that, but there are a couple of key things that I think should be
• 2:36
  sort of brought into brought to light regarding this really unfortunate tragedy. A woman
• 2:42
  murdered her uber driver because she feared that he was trying to kidnap her.
• 2:46
  And more so, stick around, it's going to be a good time and
• 2:50
  be sure to join us afterwards for the Patron only show. So on this
• 2:52
  week's I just saw this story today, so I like video games, and
• 2:57
  we are going to do a story about gaming. It's going to be the
• 3:00
  first story and one franchise that it was very popular for a while. It
• 3:07
  was I think it was like crowdfunded. It was kind of like a little
• 3:09
  indie thing called Skull Girls, which was a fighting game with a bunch of
• 3:14
  women in it, like ninety percent women characters. And of course, because
• 3:19
  of the artist's style and everything in the fact that it features girls, they
• 3:23
  were sexy Girls, because you know, video games have attractive people in them,
• 3:27
  and I was wondering how long it would be before Skull Girls received the
• 3:31
  woke chopping block was brought, you know, before the Crucible to be judged.
• 3:38
  And apparently this article from Bounding into Comics says current Skull Girls developers censor
• 3:44
  popular fighting game series in the spirit of better reflecting our values and our broad
• 3:47
  vision moving forward. It sounds like a very esg thing to say, so
• 3:53
  if you guys want to join us to read through this article to find out
• 3:55
  what's changed. If you know about Skull Girls, you don't have to,
• 4:00
  you know, you can look it up. You can see what the art
• 4:01
  is like. I was following the artist before the game was released because I
• 4:04
  used to have a Deviant Art account. Yes, I was one of those
• 4:06
  people, and I followed a lot of guys that were sort of trying to
• 4:11
  break into you know, one industry or another, animation, comics and video
• 4:15
  games for example. And this guy was he was really good at what he
• 4:19
  did, so, I mean, I don't know, I think it's tragic,
• 4:25
  but we'll see. Maybe he's actually like behind this one hundred percent,
• 4:30
  or this is just di stuff. You know, kind of coming to get
• 4:32
  him. So if you want to join us in the Patron show, either
• 4:35
  as a you know, just like in the live chat you are now,
• 4:40
  or as a part of the actual discussion, you can go to feed the
• 4:43
  Badger dot com and start a monthly subscription. And if you don't want to
• 4:47
  find out that, you know, if you don't want to lose our content
• 4:50
  in case we get yeeded from the Internet for talking about the wrong verboten subject,
• 4:56
  then go to badger feed dot com to find archives of all of our
• 5:00
  work and all of the streams that we've done. That's badger feed dot com
• 5:02
  or honey Badger Radio dot com for that. And there was something else I
• 5:09
  was going to add to this at the end, but I can't remember it
• 5:13
  now, so I'm not going to worry about it. Oh oh yeah,
• 5:15
  right. We are doing our monthly so fundraiser and it's I think it's It
• 5:20
  would be really great if you guys could give us some donations to the fundraiser,
• 5:25
  because I need to pay rent and feed my family. And I'm not
• 5:29
  trying to like, you know, play the victim or anything like that,
• 5:31
  but I work here and I expect that I would at least be able to
• 5:35
  get by so and we can't do it without your support, So if you
• 5:39
  could please go to feed the Badger dot com forward slash support and give us
• 5:44
  a donation. And lastly, if you want to send us a super chow,
• 5:47
  you can do that by going to feed the Badger dot com forward slash
• 5:50
  just the tip and we will read your super chow. We would give it
• 5:54
  priority over super chats and even over rumble brands. And you'll make sure that
• 6:00
  we get most of your donations because if you do, if you go through
• 6:02
  YouTube, YouTube takes like half of whatever it is you donate. So and
• 6:06
  they also limit your characters, and they tend to be a little censorious if
• 6:11
  you say something that they find to be edgy, which is constantly shifting you
• 6:15
  know, um standards. So anyway, with all that out of the way,
• 6:19
  let's get into the first story. So I just want to explain why
• 6:23
  I'm bringing this up. This this article is actually a little older. It's
• 6:30
  it's from March, but I learned about it recently. And I learned about
• 6:35
  it because I was seeing other YouTubers discussing this subject in a kind of like
• 6:42
  you know, I rolly you know, oh, why are we you know,
• 6:45
  talking about this again kind of perspective. So if you guys don't know,
• 6:49
  we had recently there was the Game Developers Conference, the GDC, and
• 6:56
  Anita's Arcasian spoke at one of these. At this conference, um, and
• 7:01
  this is what she had to say. She wanted to say something about the
• 7:04
  DI initiatives, and her claim is it's making the culture worse. I mean
• 7:10
  I agree with that on the face, but remember who we're talking about here.
• 7:15
  So you know, Anita Sarkasia, in case you don't know, is
• 7:17
  an intersectional feminist and a cultural critic, i e. She is a feminist.
• 7:23
  Like that's what That's what feminism is. It is critical of consciousness,
• 7:28
  It criticizes everything, It offers no solutions, and the people who use it
• 7:31
  make a lot of money. That's just the nature of the beast. So
• 7:35
  here's here's spoiler alert. Spoiler alert, Die isn't working because you're not dying.
• 7:43
  Yes, for anyone who doesn't feel like listening to the next few minutes
• 7:46
  of absolute pish. So diversity, equity, and inclusion has been a hot
• 7:54
  button topic in the game's industry over the past decade. Basically every industry.
• 7:58
  Let's be real with news companies embracing DI efforts in the wake of scandals and
• 8:03
  tragedies that emphasize the inequality of industry specific companies or society as a whole.
• 8:09
  But despite high profile chief diversity officer appointments and more pro diversity communications from companies,
• 8:16
  Feminist Frequency executive director Anita Sarcassian use her GDC session last week to say
• 8:22
  they are making little in the way of tangible, tangible improvements. Diversity,
• 8:28
  equity and inclusion efforts are framed as attempts to transform workplace environments into a space
• 8:33
  that is welcoming for all people, especially those historically underrepresented. Sarcassian said,
• 8:39
  I'm not here to tell not tangible. This is why tangible improvements on being
• 8:45
  made, because they being made on the basis of things that aren't tangible.
• 8:54
  Libracing sex if you can. I don't know how controversial it is to cull
• 8:58
  these things agible, because the science is settled sometimes and sometimes it is just
• 9:03
  not. Sarksing continues and says, I'm not here to tell you that d
• 9:11
  EI is broken. I'm here to tell you that DI is working as intended,
• 9:16
  and that's the problem. One of the problems with d EI efforts as
• 9:18
  they exist, that they're still built on mothering people who are not white,
• 9:22
  cis hero or abled. While there certainly are companies whose d EI efforts could
• 9:28
  be described as more performative than substantive, the intentions behind such efforts has little
• 9:33
  bearing when it comes to how effective they are. It seems like d EI
• 9:37
  has been co opted or created. This is what Anita is saying. But
• 9:41
  the powerful to become a shield against criticism and real change. A DI manager
• 9:48
  I admire told me, DI is often a panacea. It is the corporate
• 9:52
  embodiment of a watered down liberatory movement. It is an attempt to produce equity
• 9:56
  in a system that is fundamentally inequitable and resists equity. She went on to
• 10:03
  say. The cynical take is that DI works. Work is a hamster wheel
• 10:07
  that executives can throw all the troublemakers on who keep nagging about change. It
• 10:13
  keeps the agitators running in circles until they burn themselves out, but rarely actually
• 10:18
  provokes leaders into handing over the keys. That's handed the keys to her,
• 10:22
  for example, to affect meaningful institutional change now before everybody says anything. I
• 10:28
  just want to This is the reason why I picked this story. Okay.
• 10:31
  I have seen Clownfish TV, the Quartering, and many others that have talked
• 10:35
  about this, and they they are making this thing where it's like, oh,
• 10:41
  gamer Gate, that's so twenty fifteen. It's so, why are we
• 10:46
  still like, you know, paying attention to this. Why are we still
• 10:48
  bothering this? The reason is because Anita and people like her. So it's
• 10:54
  not her specifically, She's not doctor Evil. She's just one intersectional feminist who
• 10:58
  we happen to know of because of what was going on in twenty fifteen.
• 11:03
  But this ideology, this cult is infecting everything. And even if you go
• 11:11
  on YouTube and refute every single argument, which many people have done multiple times,
• 11:18
  right like Thunderfoot has gone to great lengths and all that, no matter
• 11:22
  how many times you refrute and debunk and destroy and annihilate on YouTube or whatever,
• 11:28
  it doesn't stop them from going and getting into positions of incredible power and
• 11:33
  affecting the entire industry from the top down, which is what she's doing.
• 11:37
  In fact, she's saying the d EI, which is absolute company business suicide.
• 11:45
  It is suicide. Okay, she's saying it's not woke enough because it's
• 11:50
  still like, I don't know, reinforcing power structures or something. She doesn't
• 11:54
  care about what works. She doesn't care that you make better arguments. She
• 12:00
  doesn't care that she's wrong, that she's lying, that she's grifting. None
• 12:03
  of these people care about that. I saw um what's her name, I
• 12:07
  forget her name, but she was on she used to be on the Young
• 12:09
  Turks and then she was on the Majority Report. Right, she's a feminist,
• 12:13
  and she was on like Tim Poole's podcast recently. And and you know
• 12:18
  Sean Fitzgerald, the guy his YouTube channel is called Actual Justice War. He
• 12:22
  absolutely yeah, Emma Viglin, thank you. He absolutely wrecked her, okay,
• 12:28
  because obviously she doesn't know what she's talking about. And Tim recked her
• 12:31
  too. Obviously she didn't know what she was talking about. But it doesn't
• 12:35
  matter. It doesn't matter because she doesn't see the skate park. She didn't,
• 12:39
  she didn't, she doesn't care. Like That's what I'm saying. These
• 12:41
  people are bad faith actors. They're not interested in debate, they're not interested
• 12:46
  in doing what is best for the world. They're trying to sow discord to
• 12:54
  get people fighting each other and to profit from it. They are the worst
• 12:58
  people, and Anita is one of them. Ideology is a cult. The
• 13:01
  only way to defeat d EI is to treat it like it what it is,
• 13:05
  which is a religion. All of this Marxist, woke, whatever you
• 13:09
  want to call it, you know, critical consciousness, all of it is
• 13:13
  a religion and it will not stop. These people can't be debunked. And
• 13:18
  then they take a step back and go, man, I guess I was
• 13:20
  wrong about that. I am hurting people and caused people to lose their jobs.
• 13:24
  No, they don't care. Look, you guys might know. I
• 13:26
  had a guy on my show a couple of times. His name is Luke,
• 13:31
  and he was a professional in the animation industry, and we talked about
• 13:35
  the animation industry. He used to work on shows like Ben Ten and The
• 13:39
  Ninja Turtles and Stephen Universe and all this, and he lost his job because
• 13:45
  of a me too letter, even though he didn't do anything. They just
• 13:46
  targeted him because he was one of these people that just kept his head down
• 13:50
  and did his work and kept to himself. And they didn't like that because
• 13:52
  he wasn't he wasn't a part of their cult, of a part of their
• 13:56
  community because he didn't believe in that stuff. So what do they do.
• 13:58
  They pushed him out of the industry. He can't get work anywhere. He's
• 14:01
  driving an uber now. And this guy is incredibly talented. I mean,
• 14:05
  they don't care. And then first they go in and it's it's like these
• 14:09
  these animation unions. It's not just people like like Anita, it's like all
• 14:13
  of these groups. They they all have the same thing in mind. They're
• 14:16
  looking to make money. They're looking to put themselves in positions of power.
• 14:22
  So they get the men fired. You notice that this starts out with,
• 14:24
  oh, look there all these people they got fired for, you know,
• 14:28
  for sexual improprieties or for being being chauvinists at work. Oh how convenient.
• 14:33
  They happen to be the most powerful men in the company. Oh look,
• 14:35
  but even more convenient, here are these powerful women they're going to replace them.
• 14:39
  Wow, what are the odds? Right? This is what they do.
• 14:41
  So this is like rotten from from top to bottom. But they always
• 14:46
  work from top down. This is in every industry, right, they get
• 14:50
  they get into the top, and they work their way down so to dismiss
• 14:54
  Anita Sarcassian because she was relevant on the YouTube's like you know, I don't
• 15:03
  know eight years ago or whatever. That is a mistake. Do not rule
• 15:07
  your eyes when people say game or game, do not because it it is
• 15:13
  the Canarian the coal mine of the entire culture war. It was the first
• 15:16
  place where it started that people took notice. That's why it's important. And
• 15:22
  when you say, oh, everything is game or gading, now, well
• 15:24
  yeah it is. Actually, you know, the comics thing, it's the
• 15:28
  same what's going on in UM. Basically any industry you name it, Hollywood,
• 15:33
  film, whatever you name it, that's what's going on. The only
• 15:37
  difference is with comics there's like a lower bar of entry because it doesn't cost
• 15:41
  as much money, it doesn't require as much manpower as like say making a
• 15:45
  film or engaging in game development development. So what I'm saying is is that
• 15:50
  UM take this seriously. Anita Sarkasian and people like her, so not just
• 15:56
  her, they have a tremend into amount of influence. Anita worked worked with
• 16:03
  people on the Assassin's Creed games, She worked with people on Dishonored, she
• 16:07
  worked with Neil Druckman, you know, and she knows like Josh Wheedon.
• 16:12
  She like rubs elbows with all of these powerful influential people in the gaming industry
• 16:18
  and in the film industry, and her feminism comes with and most of these
• 16:22
  people they just take it because they think it's right. So you you have
• 16:26
  to pay attention. I mean, Facebook made a in one of the Facebook
• 16:30
  offices, I think it might be the main office. They have a meeting
• 16:33
  room named after her. This is not this is not insignificant, and you
• 16:40
  have to stop acting like you know it's so cringe. Stop it. This
• 16:44
  is not about fashion, This is not about what's cool right now. This
• 16:47
  is about what's right, and these people are wrong. So this is why
• 16:51
  I chose this. She got a a speaking you know, a speaking engagement.
• 16:56
  I guess you could say probably got paid thousands of dollars because that's which
• 17:00
  she charges, Okay, at the Game Developers Conference, which influences the entire
• 17:06
  industry. And you know, some of you might say always is video games,
• 17:10
  but this is the whole culture, and the culture is very very important
• 17:15
  and they know it. That's why they're trying to change it. So anyway,
• 17:18
  that's it for me. That's what I wanted to say about this.
• 17:22
  This needs to be getting across to everyone who in the last seven years has
• 17:26
  been going Game Agate one. We need to get over that because Game of
• 17:30
  Gate totally won and it achieved everything he needed to achieve. No he didn't.
• 17:36
  I mean, I don't. I don't even want to men's words about
• 17:38
  this Game of Gate lost. I mean, I know, I love.
• 17:41
  We'd like to think that every small victory means a total win, like Game
• 17:47
  of Gay one and Brexit one and electing Trump means that we won. No,
• 17:53
  none of them, None of them, men, These were just roadblocks,
• 17:57
  temporary roadblocks again against the fucking thousands of tons of armored trucks that have
• 18:06
  just blown right over these roadblocks. What was the point of game again,
• 18:12
  It was to it was to prioritize, you know, objective ethics in gaming
• 18:18
  journalism over what these work assholes were doing. Did that work? No,
• 18:23
  No, it's it's it's continued right into that avenue as it always intended to.
• 18:30
  And now they just have a boogeyman to bring up every time that it
• 18:33
  doesn't go their way. And it's the same with brakes, it's the same
• 18:37
  with voting Trump. Like these these things, like I said through roadblocks into
• 18:45
  existence to let people know that there are roadblocks. But they didn't. They
• 18:49
  really didn't do much largely because of this um. This ethical perpetual motion machine
• 19:00
  is going out. And what one of the things stuck easy and said was
• 19:03
  the problem with d I is that it still results in other ring of of
• 19:10
  of of certain people's And I'm like, yeah, you're the one doing the
• 19:12
  other ring. Yeah, but you're making the others in terms of minorities seem
• 19:18
  like, you know, first class individuals, while you're also other ring to
• 19:27
  normal people. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know how
• 19:30
  to describe it. But the straight why male sisgendered normal people, You've this
• 19:37
  has always been a case of othering those people, and in your attempts to
• 19:41
  other those people, you've been other ring the other people. This this has
• 19:48
  always been a case of other ring whoever you're allowed to other, and thereby
• 19:55
  by the inverse proportionate level othering. Everyone is othered. This is what DEI
• 20:03
  means. Everyone is othered. It's either the good othered or the bad othered.
• 20:10
  And yet no matter how how much you proved their bullshit wrong, they're
• 20:15
  going to keep saying well, the problem is othering. Yet you were othering.
• 20:18
  So no matter how much you prove that their bullshit is not working,
• 20:23
  there's you're going to keep going. Well, the fact that it's not working
• 20:29
  proves that it is working. We're just not doing it hard enough, like
• 20:33
  just stop mothering. It was going fine in the nineties in terms of video
• 20:40
  games, in terms of media, in terms of general society. Everything was
• 20:45
  going fine in the nineties. We didn't have to other each other. We
• 20:49
  recognized that there was othering going on, and we were like, yeah,
• 20:55
  let's let's not push on this. Let's just go back to the other let's
• 21:02
  just eat pizza, playing the dinner. But we could that didn't work,
• 21:07
  and so we've so we've got this far, and it's and it's and it's
• 21:11
  because there's this new kind of othering that presents itself as anti othering. But
• 21:18
  any like basic understanding of logic is anti othering is just othering. You can't
• 21:26
  just throw an anti on the idea of othering and pretend that it's not othering.
• 21:33
  You just need to not do the thing in the first place. What
• 21:37
  Sarchesian and her hilk have been doing is just layering other others on top of
• 21:42
  the existing others, and thinking it's going to work as long as you just
• 21:47
  other harder than anyone else's other ever, and I need a drink while someone
• 21:55
  else talks. I just want I just want to add something before Hannah jumps
• 21:57
  in there about Gamergate losing, I don't think that we were we ever had
• 22:03
  a chance to really like win decisively, because you're talking about you know,
• 22:07
  a small group of consumers, like proportionately compared to like the wider you know,
• 22:14
  uh customer base, right, that were aware of what was going on,
• 22:18
  And even within that group, there was a division between the people who
• 22:21
  just wanted ethics and journalism and the people who saw, like me, that
• 22:26
  there was a much more sinister thing behind it. It wasn't just about trying
• 22:30
  to get journalists to be ethical and honest, although that would be nice,
• 22:33
  but it was a problem with the actual ideology itself. And that's I was
• 22:37
  coming on a ton of gamer Gate stream saying, guys, if you just
• 22:41
  get them to correct their their behavior, even if you manage that somehow,
• 22:47
  it's only going to be short lived and they're just gonna go back to what
• 22:49
  you know they were doing before. Once like everybody got accustomed to it,
• 22:53
  so that's the battle. But even then, you know, we are like
• 22:57
  so small Harris into the size of these corporations and how they've been this long
• 23:03
  march has been going on for so long that I never really thought Gamergate couldn't
• 23:07
  necessarily win. I don't know what that would look like other than you know,
• 23:11
  as long as there were developers out there that were not putting this di
• 23:18
  and uh corporate you know, index stuff ahead of making good products, um,
• 23:25
  then that would be the best we can hope for. And to be
• 23:26
  honest, some of that's happening, but you have to be extremely like per
• 23:30
  snicky about what you've spent your money on. But at the end of the
• 23:33
  day, yeah, and never, I personally never thought it was something that
• 23:37
  could be won because this is literally like a you know, a David and
• 23:41
  Goliath situation, except that David doesn't have a sling shot. So um,
• 23:47
  that's that's just my thoughts. But anyway, Hannah, go ahead if you
• 23:49
  wanted to say something, so, UM, I've got a few things to
• 23:53
  say. The first one is that, um, this this is happening because
• 24:00
  of something called a natural kind of centrism fallacy. We think that our society
• 24:04
  evolved to be to put women first, and that it's evolutionary that we can't
• 24:10
  do anything about it. We can't prevent or help that our society puts women
• 24:15
  first and makes women a priority in any in all situations, and so it
• 24:22
  becomes acceptable and inevitable that we would throw your civil rights, your human rights,
• 24:30
  your personal autonomy, your personal boundaries all under the bus on a woman's
• 24:37
  word or in a woman's interests. And that's what Me Too was all about,
• 24:41
  right, That's what being able to a woman being able to throw our
• 24:45
  sexuality around as a substitute or skill or talent in her workplace. A woman
• 24:53
  being able to substitute being being overtly sexy, being overtly sexual in the workplace,
• 25:03
  for being part of the workplace, for being involved in everything that's going
• 25:08
  on, for being a contributor to the projects and everything that are going on.
• 25:14
  And we discovered that in right before Gamergate, with the Zoo posts and
• 25:21
  all of the crap about literally who's and all of the stuff that was going
• 25:26
  on there, right, that was all essentially about a woman being able to
• 25:30
  substitute sexuality for work, and sexuality is not work. It's it's play right,
• 25:38
  it's not work. Right. That's as we're we're going to differentiate that
• 25:42
  between sex work, which does involve putting in a level of effort that's similar
• 25:52
  to a healthcare worker. But like we're one on one sex work, not
• 25:57
  I take pictures and put them on the internet and people pay money, and
• 26:00
  that's that doesn't I won't even call that work necessarily if you're not involved in
• 26:06
  another person. All right, So the idea that this is natural is based
• 26:15
  on the fallacious attribution of gene centrism, or our reproductive interests and our reproductive
• 26:26
  function as women, as as dynocentrism. And that's something that I think a
• 26:33
  lot of people I've already gotten a lot of people get mad at me for
• 26:37
  saying this. But here's the thing. You look at any historical argument for
• 26:42
  putting women first, even any modern argument right for putting women first, any
• 26:48
  of them, they all center on the Golden Uterus, something that you know,
• 26:56
  I'm not. I'm not the one that came up with the Golden Uterus
• 26:59
  center. That's that's credited to doctor Tara Pomatiermantier. Sorry, but the idea
• 27:07
  that women are special because we have the uterus, the idea that you know,
• 27:12
  you can't substitute anything for it, that you can't reproduce without it.
• 27:18
  And a woman can only have one pregnancy at a time, whereas a man
• 27:22
  can impregnate tons of women at once if he wants to. So the uterus
• 27:26
  is essentially more valuable. Well, it's only more valuable because it makes babies,
• 27:30
  right, It's only more valuable because it just states babies, that's the
• 27:33
  idea. So it's not because you're female, and it's not because being female
• 27:40
  makes you special in and of itself. It's not because being able to bat
• 27:44
  your eyelashes and wiggle your hips and have boobs and look pretty makes you special.
• 27:49
  That is a totally different thing. So when we talk about natural when
• 27:55
  I talk about natural gandacentrism as a fallacy, one I'm explaining to people is
• 28:00
  that we don't have to do this right. We don't have to allow female
• 28:06
  sexuality, which is which is where this all starts, right. Diversity,
• 28:10
  equity and inclusion is about initially the first thing that came out feminism. It's
• 28:17
  about women feeling others. It's about women feeling victimized in the workplace. It's
• 28:21
  about women complaining about the pay gap. It's about women complaining about sexual misconduct
• 28:26
  in the workplace, whether it happens or not. It's about me too,
• 28:30
  it's about abortion, it's about all of those things. Right, So if
• 28:37
  we don't have to do that, if the idea of Guyn of centrism is
• 28:42
  something that we can overcome, just Guinn of centrism in his own sake.
• 28:45
  In other words, well, because somebody is a woman, regardless of whether
• 28:49
  this is connected to her ability to reproduce, her interest in reproduction, or
• 28:55
  any of that, just female, just because she's female. No, you
• 28:59
  don't have to give an advantage. No, you don't have to listen to
• 29:00
  what she has to say any more than you would listen to what a man
• 29:03
  says. No, you don't have to accommodate her feelings more than you have
• 29:08
  to accommodate a man's feelings. No, you don't have to make her feel
• 29:14
  welcome any more than you would make a man feel welcome. She's not special,
• 29:18
  she's just a human being. So all of this, all of this
• 29:23
  rides on our false belief that people just can't help this, that we just
• 29:30
  can't help putting women first, that we just can't help, you know,
• 29:37
  dumping men under the bus in droves because women, yes, we can.
• 29:45
  We don't have to do this. We don't have to have kind of centrisom.
• 29:48
  We don't have to have diversity, equity and inclusion. We don't have
• 29:52
  to have special accommodations for anybody, and we don't have to listen to some
• 29:59
  dumb telling everybody that it's not enough no matter how much you do, it's
• 30:03
  not enough that and it's never going to be enough just because she's a woman.
• 30:12
  And humanity will not end just because we stopped putting women first. I
• 30:18
  believe that we would hit our next stage of evolution instead. If men and
• 30:23
  women were able to be equally dedicated to the welfare of humanity in general,
• 30:30
  if men and women were able to be equally accountable for themselves and for each
• 30:37
  other, we would have a society where people bent over backwards to make sure
• 30:45
  everybody was okay. We would have what the communists say they want and yet
• 30:49
  never seem to achieve. You can't have a successful society in which half of
• 30:59
  the people are considered garbage because of their gender, and the other half of
• 31:03
  the people are unable to be accountable for themselves because of their gender. It
• 31:10
  doesn't work. We are spiraling down the drain because of gynocentrism. Of pure
• 31:15
  gynocentrism. We can be gene centric, we can put children first. We
• 31:22
  can even recognize that pregnancy means that women have to give some things up and
• 31:29
  get some things in order to protect the next generation while they are pregnant.
• 31:37
  But it should stop there. Dads are indispensable. When you don't have a
• 31:42
  dad in the home, the child suffers, right, So from the moment
• 31:48
  a child is born, it's equal, baby needs dad as much as mom.
• 31:56
  So the only time women should be extra protected, and it should be
• 32:01
  limited to, is this dangerous to the baby's during pregnancy. That's it.
• 32:07
  That's the only time that ginus centrism is at all justified. And it's not
• 32:13
  justified as pure gynucentrism. It's gene centrism. And if we're going to solve
• 32:20
  this what we've been talking about, we have to do that first. You
• 32:24
  cannot convince people not to do this, this diversity inclusion equity thing, this
• 32:31
  dye movement. You can't convince people not to do that, not to base
• 32:37
  things on feelings, not to pretend that people have a right to feel a
• 32:43
  particular way rather than make an effort to make things the way they want.
• 32:47
  Um. If you, if you continue down this path, you can't get
• 32:53
  rid of that without getting rid of of of the idea of natural gynocentrism,
• 33:00
  and without getting rid of the the behavior of overt in every aspect of our
• 33:06
  society, pure gynocentrism. Mike Ja, do you want to add anything I
• 33:14
  did? I did? Um, just just two things real quick. Um.
• 33:22
  The idea that Gamergate lost. I think it's kind of flawed because I
• 33:32
  think at the end of the day, no two people really had the same
• 33:36
  end goal in mind. With Gamergate. I look at what was accomplished,
• 33:39
  and I think this is a victory in it of itself, the sort of
• 33:44
  awakening that happened, the noticing, if you will, the hmm, it
• 33:52
  seems like all of these people are in lock step with each other. I
• 33:55
  wonder why. And then you you chase that a realization down the rabbit hole,
• 34:02
  and it leads you to some pretty interesting places. And I think that's
• 34:06
  what happened to quite a lot of people around twenty fourteen. I know that's
• 34:12
  kind of what happened to me. Yeah, that's literally the only reason I'm
• 34:15
  here talking to you is because of a gamer Gate. Ye. If I
• 34:17
  had never got interested in that, I never would have found the Badgers.
• 34:22
  Well, same here I got involved in. I wouldn't say it was comics
• 34:24
  gave, but I was. I got dragged for a comic that was centered
• 34:30
  on a man's romantic experience and that was what landed me an interview on Honey
• 34:36
  Badger Radio because of the reaction from my peers in art school in college.
• 34:43
  And so yeah, it was the same kind of thing. I'm like,
• 34:45
  doing something that I didn't think was a big deal, going maybe going a
• 34:50
  little against the grain, and I you know, I rustled some jimmies to
• 34:55
  quote an old Internet phrase, but I think that that away harness, Like
• 35:00
  like I said, I mean you can combine that with the fact that we
• 35:02
  now are in an Internet age and we have information you know, at our
• 35:06
  fingertips, um, like this stuff was going on way before the Internet and
• 35:12
  now we all know about it, or at least a number of people do,
• 35:15
  and um, you know that this is causing some serious change. We're
• 35:20
  gonna get into some of the other effects of the EI in a moment um
• 35:23
  or at least the mentality behind d I like where the concept comes from.
• 35:29
  Um. But anyway, Yeah, I'm with you, Mike, I don't.
• 35:31
  I don't. I think it's a matter of like again, you know,
• 35:35
  if you thought that victory meant that all of the developers were just going
• 35:38
  to stop yeah, some streets. Yeah, it's difficultn't know what victory even
• 35:45
  means in in what we're calling the culture wall, because of the most physical
• 35:52
  wars are not thought on the ground anymore, that thought in the air,
• 35:55
  you know, by complains of drones. Culture culture war is even further into
• 36:00
  the air because it's conceptual. It's it's not even a cold war, it's
• 36:05
  a sub zero war. And it goes on very very slowly. Yeah,
• 36:08
  and it's difficult to know what you can even call a victory or a loss
• 36:14
  until decades after it's happened. Yeah, and that's that's what we're experiencing right
• 36:19
  now. Like what was game again? Can it be called a battle?
• 36:24
  Can it be called a division in the war? We don't even know it.
• 36:29
  I mean, it it sets some shit in motion, but we're not
• 36:35
  going to know until years after now, Like what even worked and what even
• 36:38
  didn't and even then it's all going to be speculative, Like the fog of
• 36:43
  the fog of war is always present in war, but in a war where
• 36:46
  everything is made of fog, like as as I was supposed to know what
• 36:52
  anything even is until the fog clears and war if you will, Well,
• 36:59
  yeah, the thing about it is um our society has done this before with
• 37:04
  different things, right, Like it used to be normal to beat up on
• 37:07
  people because they were they were very different, because they were gay. We've
• 37:10
  we've had, or because they were intellectually disabled or had a mental health condition
• 37:15
  or all kinds of things like that. Um. Even when I was a
• 37:19
  kid in the seventies, like other kids would pick on somebody because they were
• 37:24
  different. They didn't have to be overtly different. They only had to be
• 37:28
  a little different. Right, And it's become now you have this narrative that
• 37:35
  it's not okay, and it's only okay if the way in which they're different
• 37:39
  doesn't fit your political outlook. Right, you're there. They they are now
• 37:44
  politically different instead of physically different. Um. These changes when they when they
• 37:50
  take place, they don't necessarily when when you say win or lose, Um,
• 37:53
  they don't necessarily take the path that a pot war would take, where
• 38:00
  you lose people's lives and somebody's surrenders and there's a declaration of victory and a
• 38:06
  declaration of surrender and rules change and everybody agrees to it. Right in the
• 38:13
  culture, when we call it a culture war, it's because there's two groups
• 38:19
  of people with different attitudes going, you know, at each other's throats socially,
• 38:24
  trying to cancel each other. People act like cancel culture is a twenty
• 38:29
  first century thing, but it's always been around and so on, and victory
• 38:34
  is declared when somebody gets what they want, but it's never ending. Like
• 38:39
  the gay rights movement, the idea that you know, at least now,
• 38:45
  if you come out and your employer finds out about it, your employer can't
• 38:51
  just fire you for that, right, Oh well they're gay, I'm firing
• 38:54
  them. You know, that's that's a win, right, The idea that
• 38:59
  you know, a bunch of people tie you to the back of a truck
• 39:01
  and drag you down the street till you die. They're going to get charged
• 39:06
  twice, basically once with the crime against a human being that is illegal no
• 39:10
  matter who you do it. Too, and a crime that is based on
• 39:15
  hatred specifically because of the type of human being that you are. That's a
• 39:21
  win for the people that were pushing for that. That's law now, and
• 39:25
  people's social attitudes have changed around it as well. Right, people didn't get
• 39:30
  mad in huge numbers when the Supreme Court decided that gay people could get married
• 39:38
  because most people were already on board with the idea that, yeah, sure,
• 39:43
  gay people can get married. Some of us were disappointed that it had
• 39:47
  to be the Supreme Court and not a cultural movement, but those are wins.
• 39:52
  Well, what did Gamergate do? It made it possible for people to
• 39:57
  talk about these issues, right, And my first step into gamer gate actually
• 40:05
  like and that was on Twitter. I started seeing the hashtag and everything,
• 40:08
  But it actually came from a place of having been discussing this and the men's
• 40:13
  rights subreddit before the zo post, before any of the incidents took place.
• 40:20
  That um led to it, or at least before they were public um that
• 40:24
  that led to the gamer gate a phenomenon. And I was getting written about
• 40:30
  by this insane blogger who likes to stalk a voice from I personalities using what
• 40:36
  is now the pick me narrative, um, when he I taught man,
• 40:42
  yes, oh my god, I haven't heard that I ever heard. Yeah,
• 40:46
  yeah, what was his name? Anyway, he renamed he renamed his
• 40:52
  blog we hunted the Mammoth, which ye, So for people to understand why
• 40:58
  that's funny, the we hunted the mammoth narrative is um feminists getting castigated for
• 41:06
  hating men, given that all of society was built by men, and uh,
• 41:10
  everything that they benefit from, they benefited from men's initiative, men's stoicism,
• 41:17
  everything that they criticize about men, And the feminist narrative is, well,
• 41:22
  we didn't ask you to do that, We didn't want that. Don't
• 41:24
  tell us that you hunted the mammoth. And now we have to appreciate the
• 41:28
  meat. We're vegetarians. Leave us alone, right, So that's his that's
• 41:31
  his thing, right, But he's a feminist to advocate for women. I
• 41:37
  don't want his advocacy. He can go fuck himself sideways with a chainsaw.
• 41:44
  Honestly, that man is a louse. He's a groundswoth. Of him saying
• 41:50
  we hunted the merit mamoth, we were the ground swath. We went extinct
• 41:54
  long before the Mammoth did so, the point being obviously his his his ironic
• 42:01
  title for his blog, he is doing something two women, not for women,
• 42:07
  and you know, like he's not very effective in his own way,
• 42:10
  so who cares, right, But but he did stalk a voice for men
• 42:16
  personalities, and I was one at the time. You know, I still
• 42:21
  kind of am, just haven't been doing very much lately with them. But
• 42:24
  in any case, we had a big discussion a while before gamer Gate and
• 42:30
  in the Men's Right subreddit about women's sensibilities in gaming cultures, because there was
• 42:38
  this thing that was starting to happen where gaming groups that were mostly guys,
• 42:45
  they would have a woman come into the group and the next thing, you
• 42:49
  know, the entire group would just be broken up, like the guys would
• 42:52
  all be each other's throats. They would all be and it would start with,
• 42:54
  well, can you accommodate her by not doing this? And it would
• 42:59
  be something that you know, women find it reasonable to complain about, but
• 43:04
  really it's not that big of a deal and there's no point complaining about it.
• 43:07
  You know, like a character having having as part of the characters mentioned
• 43:13
  physical description enormous tits, or you know, if you've ever seen the movie
• 43:19
  The Gamers where they talk about bikini mail, which isn't a slogy thing,
• 43:23
  right, but cheesecake and comics where you have those Greek images of like red
• 43:30
  Sonja in the bikini chail, like that kind of mantle, right, the
• 43:32
  old She Hulk books like in the eighties. And we were supposed to ignore
• 43:37
  the fact that we're playing a game that a huge portion of the gameplay is
• 43:44
  about magic, the use of magic, how magic works, how you overcome
• 43:49
  things that are normally hard and fast rules in reality with magic. But suddenly
• 43:54
  that specific one type of armor cannot possibly happen and it cannot possibly prenet protect
• 44:00
  you. A ring on your finger can protect you, but bikini male can't,
• 44:04
  right, And so you have this kind of woman behavior and woman logic
• 44:08
  coming into gaming. And we were talking about that and we got onto U
• 44:14
  shit talk, and I kind of explained, you know, like I did
• 44:19
  the girly take my dice and go home thing one time, and I didn't
• 44:22
  like it. I felt like a moron doing that. And it's what you
• 44:25
  know, the boomer generation of women were like, well, if men don't
• 44:29
  behave themselves around you, you just walk away, Well, what's behaving themselves?
• 44:34
  Didn't hit me one of them. One of them rased me about something
• 44:37
  and his language was vulgar, and I was supposed to care about that,
• 44:43
  so I pretended to care about that. It pissed me off that I had
• 44:47
  to leave and I didn't do it again. I was just like, you
• 44:50
  know, this is this is ridiculous. I'm not that's not me. I'm
• 44:52
  not a lady. I'm not injured if somebody uses the word fuck and and
• 44:58
  I'm I'm giving up on that. So after that, I didn't take my
• 45:00
  dice and go home again. That was the thing that Foutrell wrote about.
• 45:04
  Right. His name is David Foutrell. Yeah, and he well he's been
• 45:09
  on the news under that name, so I think it's his real name anyway.
• 45:13
  Um, But in any case, he took issue with the idea that
• 45:17
  women can dish out and take shit talk as well as men and should be
• 45:23
  expected to if they're going to walk into an environment full of men where there's
• 45:28
  an established culture already. That pissed him off. That was that was at
• 45:34
  least a year before gamer Gate, So when when um, gamergate started happening
• 45:38
  on Twitter, you know, the discussion started happening on Twitter. I was
• 45:42
  always kind of familiar with the issues and everything, and what I have seen
• 45:47
  in terms of a victory as opposed to like ending the war and like culture
• 45:54
  war is something that's been going on since the dawn of culture and it'll continue
• 45:58
  forever. It's just people playing tug of war with the Overton window on specific
• 46:01
  topics and the Overton window on can you discuss the female behavior of throwing around
• 46:10
  one's sexuality while simultaneously throwing around one's fragility or perceived fragility as a means of
• 46:17
  controlling the men in a given cultural environment. Can you discuss that? And
• 46:23
  for a long time the answer was no. You could in the fifties,
• 46:29
  you could in the sixties. From about the eighties on, it started to
• 46:32
  become a socially taboo kind of thing. You're being sexist against women when you
• 46:37
  admit that women do that. And we, I think as as a movement,
• 46:44
  both the Men's Rice movement and the gamer Gate phenomenon, we move that
• 46:49
  window back to a position where we can discuss that. So, in my
• 46:53
  opinion, that's a huge victory because without being able to discus us that,
• 47:00
  we would not be able to fight back against the idea that Gina centrism is
• 47:06
  inevitable and that we should just put up with all that behavior from women,
• 47:12
  and that we have to accept that men are going to let women do this
• 47:17
  to them, like step on them, throw their weight around and so on,
• 47:22
  and there you go. So there's there's your wink. Our loss,
• 47:29
  I would say, is in people not recognizing that that is a win.
• 47:35
  We have to move on. But I want to give Mike tal the last
• 47:37
  word. I saw that you might. I did have one last thing I
• 47:39
  wanted to say, real quick, Um, whatever Anita Sarcasian speaks about anything,
• 47:50
  just reframe it, like, hmmm, I have noticed over there some
• 47:53
  people have money and power. Why isn't it mine? Well, yeah,
• 48:00
  that's obviously what she wants to do. But the problem is is that too
• 48:04
  many people are willing to ignore that or say well that's okay and that you
• 48:08
  know, so like what we should be We should be calling it out,
• 48:12
  is all I'm saying. Call it out, show it to people, say
• 48:14
  look, you know, oh yeah, I heard this girl. She wanted
• 48:16
  she has like these great, big ideas about how to change the industry.
• 48:20
  You just have to tell them no, she's a gripter. She's trying to
• 48:22
  make money. She hates the industry, hates it. She's going to destroy
• 48:27
  it. I mean, d Ei is going to destroy this industry. It's
• 48:30
  suicide. Like I said, So, yes, I agree, I know
• 48:32
  that it's not. I mean, I think she's a true believer as well,
• 48:36
  though, I think that she's a true believer in this stuff. But
• 48:39
  she is in it for the money and especially the power, because she probably
• 48:45
  is already rich. She just likes having power, and that's and that's what
• 48:51
  feminists do. So but yes, I take this other thing, and the
• 48:54
  other thing that you should ask yourself is what does she actually produce? Nothing?
• 49:00
  What make what does she do? She makes other people do the opposite
• 49:05
  of what they should be doing. What Anita Sarcasian does is she is on
• 49:10
  the opposite side of that tug of war. She wants to get that Overton
• 49:13
  window back to where you cannot discuss women's exploitation of their sexuality and their apparent
• 49:20
  fragility as a weapon against other people socially and economically. That's that's what she
• 49:27
  wants. But what she or what she does, what she wants is communism,
• 49:31
  Like, yeah, she's a feminist before she's any of these other things.
• 49:37
  She is a true believer in communism and that's that's um. You can
• 49:42
  see that if you look up her discussion with UM. She was on the
• 49:45
  stage with your main career and some other feminists talking about choice feminism, yeah,
• 49:51
  versus gender feminism, and she had some things to say about choice feminism.
• 49:57
  UM. So you know, you kind of look up an need A
• 50:00
  Sarcasian on choice feminism, UM or I gotta, I gotta figure out a
• 50:05
  way to put I put a comparison up between her and um. Oh shit,
• 50:09
  I can ever think of a real name Hermione, oh Hermione Granger.
• 50:15
  Oh you may yea Emma Watson, Emma Watson. Yeah, they they both
• 50:22
  had long statements on feminism. Emma Watson is a choice feminist. Anita Sarcasian
• 50:25
  is a feminist communist. And I put them their statements together in one video.
• 50:31
  But I can't put it on YouTube because it gets copyright strikes because they're
• 50:37
  they're from news interviews, from from big news interviews. So it's on it's
• 50:43
  on um Rumble, but it's on my channel, which nobody can find because
• 50:46
  it's tiny, so I don't know. Maybe I'll maybe I'll put it.
• 50:51
  Yeah, Alison wants to put it on the on the honey Bit Badger channel.
• 50:54
  It has to be on Rumble. I can't go on you right again,
• 50:57
  right, yeah, well that that'd be fine. Okay, So but
• 51:00
  we got to move on. This has gone way too long. So we're
• 51:04
  let us tell of you guys think about this in the comments. I got
• 51:06
  a couple of super chows. I want to read them. So Meredith,
• 51:08
  she gueves this five bucks and says HBr News four one one. Sarkasin is
• 51:13
  complaining because she is counting other people's money and is watching as other grifters or
• 51:16
  getting the jobs and influence that she she thinks she is old. Yeah,
• 51:20
  yeah, we know, but I mean she is getting money, so she
• 51:22
  just like it's there's never enough when you're this kind of person. She is
• 51:27
  getting paid, but that doesn't matter because she's also got a tremendous amount of
• 51:30
  influence over the industry. That's the real real problem. But go ahead.
• 51:36
  Yeah, if anyone doesn't really know, she's actually taking checks from what was
• 51:39
  it that showed that we were watching CNN? She's this CNN did like a
• 51:45
  special about like the history of comedy and the history of um like sitcoms and
• 51:50
  things like that. And it's actually like I wish it wasn't CNN that produced
• 51:53
  it because it's actually a really good like I was intrigued by it, But
• 51:59
  I need to start. He's makes a fucking appearance in there. So she's
• 52:01
  she's getting money, guys, She's not. He is getting these checks out
• 52:07
  here, yes, and she makes she need the unfunniest woman in history.
• 52:10
  Yeah. Well, I mean I don't know it. What is the absolute
• 52:15
  state of comedy? Though? I mean that it makes perfect sense. But
• 52:20
  anyway, we gotta move on. Thank you Lauren for that. I didn't
• 52:22
  know that. Let us some of you guys think about this. Oh yeah,
• 52:25
  I do have another super Chot two more so Zappier. That's a that's
• 52:30
  basically means an anonymous person gave us twelve bucks and says, Mike, I
• 52:32
  was watching some of your older videos and noticed you mentioned a British rock band
• 52:37
  or possibly the name of one of their songs. You may have even used
• 52:40
  a sample of the song. I can't remember what they were called. Sorry,
• 52:44
  I can't remember the title of the video you mentioned. Them in either
• 52:47
  your titles are wild Anyways, you have any idea what the band was called?
• 52:51
  Yeah, go ahead, Mike, there's a thing I heard one time
• 52:54
  years ago. Don't have a lot to go on, but tell me what
• 53:00
  it is. Sherlock. You know Genesis. I'm because I wouldn't. I
• 53:07
  would never say anything about Genesis. I don't know. That's the worst comment.
• 53:12
  Never. Sorry, I love you. It's not helpful. I've got
• 53:17
  nothing to work with it. Yeah, it's not helpful. Oh look,
• 53:21
  JoJo's alive. Um, and he's back. Let's get some good boys in
• 53:23
  the chat for Jojo. Yes, good boy, Jojo, good boy,
• 53:28
  good boy. Okay, he's just like whatever. Um. And then I
• 53:31
  got another one. I think it's from the same person or another anonymous person.
• 53:35
  That game is five bucks and says take a shot every time. Mike
• 53:37
  says other slash other ring. All right, so thank you. Oh I
• 53:43
  got other ring. I'm gonna take a shot because I said it. Um
• 53:47
  Nova fan twenty one gives us a dollar on Rumble and says, I think
• 53:51
  Gamergate got the last laugh, considering all the game urinalists going out of business.
• 53:55
  While YouTubers and streamers do a better job of reviewing games just by playing
• 54:00
  them. But I mean, I have other things I could say about it,
• 54:01
  but this is this story is just taking way too much time, and
• 54:06
  I gotta pick up my wife soon. So let's move on to the next
• 54:08
  one. We're gonna talk about the titan and the submarine that is so mike
• 54:15
  Ja if you don't mind why certain Lebrian so just gonnas gonna be with the
• 54:22
  facts here, then then we're gonna then we're gonna get weird with it.
• 54:25
  So, as many of you have heard by now, during an expedition and
• 54:30
  to visit the final resting place of the Titanic, a submersible carrying five men
• 54:35
  that suffered a catastrophic failure and sadly all lives were lost. The submersible,
• 54:42
  which belonged to and was piloted by the CEO of a company called Ocean Gates.
• 54:47
  The crew of the submarine consisted of Stockton Rush, great name by the
• 54:52
  way, CEO of Ocean Gate, and the subs pilot Hamish Harding, also
• 55:00
  a good name, a British billionaire and explorer, the monocle and a Hannibal
• 55:05
  mustache because that's what yeah like has he recently been to the Dark Continent wild
• 55:15
  game. Yes that anyway, I'm sorry, Go ahead, Paul Henry Narguiole.
• 55:22
  I think I pronounced that right. I probably did not. I know
• 55:24
  A certain Frenchman will brate me later for this. A French explorer and expert
• 55:30
  on the Titanic Shizada A de Wud, a rich Pakistani businessman, and Suleiman
• 55:37
  de Wu son of Shizada, who very tragically was nervous about the trip,
• 55:43
  but ultimately agreed on it for his father for Father's Day. Yeah, that's
• 55:49
  pretty sad. After a contact with the submersible was unexpectedly cut off, search
• 55:54
  teams were scrambled, believing that the sub was still intact but stuck underwater.
• 56:00
  Seems from several different nations searched in what seemed like a race against the clock
• 56:04
  to find the trap submersible before their oxygen ran out. Unbeknownst to the rest
• 56:08
  of the world, however, United States maybe personnel detective quote an anomaly consistent
• 56:15
  with an implosion or explosion in the vicinity of where the submersible went missing.
• 56:22
  This information was not shared as it was believed at the time to not be
• 56:25
  definitive, but as of now is believed to be the fate of the Ocean
• 56:30
  Gate submersible. All Right, the thing is, people die all the time
• 56:39
  and no one cares. And I don't just mean in the ground scheme of
• 56:44
  things, like no one cares except their immediate family. I mean some people
• 56:47
  have no accessible immediate family. They're just as strange, or they've defted apart
• 56:52
  or whatever, and then they die alone and penny less in some dingy apartment.
• 56:59
  And the closest anyone comes to caring is when the neighbors complain about the
• 57:02
  smell that happens millions of times every day, and no one gives a shit.
• 57:09
  I would wager it's been happening a lot more in the last three years
• 57:15
  or so. And so when it turns out some billionaires have died in unusual
• 57:21
  and tragic circumstances, it's kind of understandable to not give a shit about them
• 57:27
  either. Why would we? Why should we? How does it affect my
• 57:30
  life? Yeah it doesn't. I mean, yes, it's tragic. Obviously.
• 57:37
  The reason it was such an alluring story at first was the notion that
• 57:44
  they were trapped alive two miles underwater in the freezing dark for several days,
• 57:51
  and yet that would make an interesting movie. But to remind you, there
• 57:57
  are millions of people out there who spe most of their lives trapped in the
• 58:00
  freezing dark, and then they die and no one cares as it happens.
• 58:07
  The people on board the submarine in question, in all likelihood were killed by
• 58:12
  an implosive compression, which means they died almost instantaneously, like in milliseconds.
• 58:20
  They went from oh hey, what's that creaking sound? To just red mist
• 58:25
  in the water. They didn't even suffer, They didn't have time to suffer.
• 58:31
  So you can see why there's some resentment towards this story. So some
• 58:37
  people are gloating over the deaths of rich people, and some people are gloating
• 58:44
  over the deaths of these cowboy submarine engineers who refused to hire fifty year old
• 58:52
  white guys because they're not inspirational enough. And I don't think either of these
• 58:55
  are healthy reactions. Because kiss you're making it for the people rather than about
• 59:00
  the story itself. There is good reason to have resentments as to how this
• 59:07
  is even a story. Why is this even a story? Do you think
• 59:13
  this is the first time some underwater cowboy and his passengers have been vaporized in
• 59:17
  a submersible sardine can probably not. But it's the first time you've heard it
• 59:23
  in the news, certainly the first time it's been covered this heavily. As
• 59:29
  most of you will have already concluded, you are, of course being distracted.
• 59:35
  The media is dangling a shiny set of car keys in front of you
• 59:40
  so they don't have to talk about something else from. What are we being
• 59:46
  distracted The obvious sciences? Yeah, the obvious science is the absolute state of
• 59:52
  the kangaroo car banana Republic that was once the US justice system. They really
• 59:59
  want you to about Trump's indictment. Unfortunately, that whole shenanigans invites certain what
• 1:00:05
  about is ums regarding the form of vice president and their son. It's all
• 1:00:09
  jolly unfortunate timing. So the media doesn't even want you thinking about the justice
• 1:00:15
  system at the moment. Come back in ten years when we've raised the Hunter
• 1:00:21
  Biden scandals from history and we can pretend nothing happened in June twenty three except
• 1:00:28
  Orange Man indicted. In the meantime, here is a brand new urban legend
• 1:00:34
  about some billionaires who die in a PlayStation billy can two miles under the sea.
• 1:00:38
  Come let us discuss this all day, every day for a week.
• 1:00:43
  It's all just so tiresome. So while the jangling keys, as as they
• 1:00:52
  were, were being displayed in front of us, these five things all occurred.
• 1:00:59
  The release of the JP Morgan and Jeffrey Epstein emails, and then the
• 1:01:05
  subsequent discovery that JP Morgan just whoopsie doodled forty seven million emails. They're gone,
• 1:01:12
  We're never going to see them. The Biden impeachment vote which was happening
• 1:01:17
  in the House that you didn't hear about that, the Pentagon speaking of whoopsie
• 1:01:23
  doodled, whoopsie doodled sixty billion more for Ukraine or sorry, six billion more
• 1:01:28
  for Ukraine because accounting error, I guess, the John Durham Congressional hearing into
• 1:01:35
  the Russia Gate hoax that continued, and Hunter Biden getting a slap on the
• 1:01:39
  wrists for millions of dollars in what is essentially tax evasion, something that anyone
• 1:01:47
  of us, anyone here speaking, anyone here listening, if we did that,
• 1:01:54
  we would not see the light of day for quite some time. I'm
• 1:02:00
  very curious as to why it was so necessary to hire eighty seven thousand new
• 1:02:07
  IRS employees. But for some reason, someone somewhere just lost six billion fucking
• 1:02:16
  dollars. And who's accountable? Is anybody gonna hang for this? Is anybody's
• 1:02:22
  job on the line for this? Oh no, nope, nope, it's
• 1:02:27
  just you, you stupid taxpayer, you know. And I'm sorry, I'm
• 1:02:34
  gonna take this out of left field and bring it right back real quick.
• 1:02:37
  People are still fucking arguing about slavery. They're all slaves to the fucking federal
• 1:02:42
  Reserve system. And if we don't wake up and realize what's happening, then
• 1:02:47
  we're all just gonna get taken for a ride. And that's what's happening because
• 1:02:52
  nobody, nobody's paying attention. We're all caught up in these stupid, little,
• 1:02:58
  insignificant and squat squibbles with each other about Oh, I'm you're not on
• 1:03:04
  my team. Listen, the government is not on our side. And and
• 1:03:14
  if I just hate to say it, I just don't think that there's enough
• 1:03:19
  time to wake enough people up. I think there's people out there who understand
• 1:03:22
  what's happening and they want to do something. I just I don't know.
• 1:03:27
  I'm I'm I am normally an optimistic person, but right now I just do
• 1:03:34
  not have faith in the American public to actually pay attention to what's going on.
• 1:03:42
  The tough thing is getting people to understand that something can feel beneficial and
• 1:03:47
  still be bad, right, um, and a comparison would be real beneficial
• 1:03:53
  here. I think if you look at a job that maybe I've mentioned this
• 1:04:00
  before, right, sex work, that that maybe doesn't get treated like a
• 1:04:03
  job, you know, by the by the public. It gets treated like
• 1:04:06
  a crime. And again I'm talking about like in person direct you know,
• 1:04:13
  being a hooker, that kind of thing. Right, So we recognize as
• 1:04:16
  a society somebody does that job and another person basically is able to say,
• 1:04:23
  you have to keep doing this job and I get to skim off the top
• 1:04:28
  of your your income. I'm going to take this percentage. And it doesn't
• 1:04:30
  matter whether they're taking ten percent or ninety percent. They're taking, right,
• 1:04:34
  They're not asking, they're taking. That's a crime. We recognize that that's
• 1:04:40
  a crime, and we recognize that the aspect of it where the individual's liberty
• 1:04:48
  to to stop working and not pay, you know, not pay the pimp,
• 1:04:55
  that that's also a crime. That's human trafficking. But in our country,
• 1:05:00
  and we have people who are ordered to work all the time for various
• 1:05:02
  reasons. Child support us one of them, but it's not the only one.
• 1:05:08
  And every job that exists, the government gets to skim off the top.
• 1:05:15
  And then and if you can't keep up with those payments, if something
• 1:05:19
  happens in between when you work and when tax time comes, and you find
• 1:05:27
  out that your employer didn't take enough off the top to send to the irs
• 1:05:30
  during during your work year, and you have to dig into your pockets and
• 1:05:35
  send the rest. They didn't rob you enough, They're going to rob you
• 1:05:41
  some more. But now you're not employed and you don't have the money,
• 1:05:44
  they will order you to work, and they will take off the top of
• 1:05:46
  that work to make you to pay those taxes. Right, And we may
• 1:05:53
  have we may have a constitutional amendment allowing it, we may have laws allowed
• 1:06:00
  it. We have lots of philosophers and people arguing various points trying to justify
• 1:06:10
  it. But taxation makes Uncle Sam your pimp. You are being trafficked,
• 1:06:19
  And the federal budget that has borrowed on the labor of your great great grandchildren
• 1:06:29
  makes Uncle Sam your descendants. The pimp to your descendants. And this is
• 1:06:34
  this is why the government gets mad when you don't have children and punishes you
• 1:06:38
  financially with higher taxes. If you're not going to create to produce prostitutes for
• 1:06:45
  their future use, then they're going to take it out of your hide.
• 1:06:53
  So yeah, I would say, if we want to talk about slavery,
• 1:06:57
  let's talk about how the United States government engages in the traffic of the citizens
• 1:07:01
  of the United States, trafficking of the citizens of the United States as workhorses
• 1:07:08
  for the budgets of other countries that we've we've borrowed money from, or they've
• 1:07:12
  borrowed money from in our name. There you go. But in terms of
• 1:07:16
  this this tighten of a disaster, the one say thing I will say about
• 1:07:20
  this is that the only value to having this as a news story is did
• 1:07:26
  we learn anything from it? Like, yes, it's a tragedy. Tragedy
• 1:07:30
  does happen all the time. Mike's right about that. When I moved into
• 1:07:34
  the apartment I live in now with my husband and my son, that happened
• 1:07:41
  here next door to us, there was a there was a weird smell,
• 1:07:45
  and it turns out that the neighbor had passed away, and he did.
• 1:07:48
  None of his family was close by, he wasn't in contact with people,
• 1:07:53
  and the only reason that anybody knew anything happened to him was because of the
• 1:07:59
  smell. And it wasn't us that that noticed. It was the people downstairs.
• 1:08:03
  And the smell went down before it went to the side. You know,
• 1:08:08
  there's a that happens all the time. Like so, if we didn't
• 1:08:14
  learn anything from this, then it's not got no value of a news story,
• 1:08:19
  right. The two things I will point out that we could have learned
• 1:08:23
  is that when you are dealing with life or death situations, when you are
• 1:08:28
  dealing with do or die, you have to do this right or somebody dies.
• 1:08:33
  You can't afford diversity, inclusion and equity because you get killed. And
• 1:08:43
  the other thing is if something looks stupidly dangerous, if you have a bad
• 1:08:50
  feeling about something and your gut says, don't do that, don't do it.
• 1:09:00
  Yeah, it's hubrists. It's hubrist. I mean that's basically what it
• 1:09:03
  is. It's you know, there was there was some arrogance from the guy,
• 1:09:08
  and yes, I think that he had a di mentality. It wasn't
• 1:09:12
  like it was being forced on him, but he was thinking of it.
• 1:09:15
  He was like, oh, I want to be inspirational, you know.
• 1:09:17
  And I think that was a mistake because, like, you know, what
• 1:09:20
  you're dealing with is it's just it's just far too dangerous. It's far and
• 1:09:25
  far too day. It's like in the military, you know, like you
• 1:09:28
  get um I have with There's plenty of guys that watch us that are in
• 1:09:32
  the military, the military guys, and I asked them about what women in
• 1:09:35
  their units, right, and they're like, yeah, it's a bad idea.
• 1:09:39
  It's a bad idea. It doesn't matter how good they are. I
• 1:09:42
  mean, first of all, we lower the standards to let women join the
• 1:09:44
  military if they elect to. But beyond that, it's still a bad idea
• 1:09:47
  because they the whole dynamic changes, and when you're in the military, you
• 1:09:51
  can't afford to like be anything less at one hundred, one hundred and ten
• 1:09:56
  percent everyone in it moving as a unit. That's the whole point. And
• 1:10:00
  so that it just means that if you're not operating at optimum efficiency to get
• 1:10:06
  it done, you know, then you're you're not going to get it done.
• 1:10:10
  Something's going to go wrong. This is true in any of these extreme
• 1:10:14
  environments. If you're working in you know, um as a lumberjack, or
• 1:10:17
  you're on an oil rig, or you're in the military, you know,
• 1:10:20
  or you're a cop, or you're a fireman, or you're in a submarine,
• 1:10:25
  you can't afford to play around with the you know, and treat men
• 1:10:29
  and women like they're the same or or whatever it is, right you want,
• 1:10:32
  young people, it's it's going to get people killed. That's I think
• 1:10:38
  the thing that I learned or not learned because I knew this, but it
• 1:10:42
  demonstrates that in some circumstances, this entire equitable fantasy kills people. You know,
• 1:10:50
  it kills people. I mean so anyway, um and and also disincentivizes
• 1:10:58
  people doing the right thing too. He is designed to do that. What
• 1:11:00
  were we going to say, reality check with all these billionaires going into space?
• 1:11:06
  I mean, you know what I'm going to say, Well, exactly,
• 1:11:11
  this same thing is going to happen in space, but it's going to
• 1:11:15
  be even worse because it's in space. Some billionaire's bodies are going to get
• 1:11:18
  blown out into deep space, never to be recovered, and we're just going
• 1:11:24
  to have to sit here wondering what happens to a humans soul when it is
• 1:11:29
  cast into infinity forever? And that's going to be used, took, Yeah,
• 1:11:34
  that's going to be used to distract us from some important I'm sure,
• 1:11:38
  I'm sure. Okay, but the temperature from outer space would freeze drive you.
• 1:11:44
  If your body was cast out into space, your body would remain intact
• 1:11:47
  and it would drift through deep space for thousands of years before the radiation the
• 1:11:53
  share radiation of the atoms in it. Yeah, and that would take well
• 1:11:58
  millions of years at least. This is going to confuse the shit out of
• 1:12:01
  the aliens. Yeah, right, when they come across it. You mean
• 1:12:05
  the ones in those people's yards, the fifteen foot tall ones. But anyway,
• 1:12:10
  okay, we got stupid enough. Yeah, oh yeah, we gotta
• 1:12:15
  move on to the next story. But let us know you guys think about
• 1:12:17
  this in the comments. So I got another super chow. Michael Emeric Windberg
• 1:12:21
  gives us five dollars and says, on that subject, have you seen the
• 1:12:25
  recent CNN article illustrating pretty much what you guys are saying to quote Five things
• 1:12:29
  to know for June twenty seventh, Trump Russia possible collusion, Extreme weather January
• 1:12:35
  six, Voting Rights. I wish I was joking. And then there's a
• 1:12:39
  link. I'm not going to open it because we're way behind, but thank
• 1:12:42
  you for the super chow. I'll look at that later. I'm some of
• 1:12:45
  that stuff I already knew. I knew that the submarine was only being made
• 1:12:48
  into a big thing because it was a distraction. But I also think that
• 1:12:53
  there is some something of value to get from it. And I also don't
• 1:12:57
  hate billionaires, so I guess I'm not on that bandwagon, you know,
• 1:13:00
  because it's it's reasonable, like if anyone's going to take a risk, you
• 1:13:04
  know, to like learn about like the dangers of going deep underwater or an
• 1:13:09
  outer space. I guess billionaires are the most the best qualified because they can
• 1:13:13
  afford it, and then it'll communicate something to us, and I think we
• 1:13:15
  can take something from that. So there you go, Thanks billionaires. All
• 1:13:18
  right, um, let us move on to the next story. Let us
• 1:13:23
  know you guys think about this in like, oh, and I got a
• 1:13:25
  super chat sorry from Richard Bierre for datter ninety nine and says, what was
• 1:13:29
  a briefcase of info incriminating HRC aboard, Oh, Hillary. Yeah, quite
• 1:13:34
  possibly. She So where all the lost emails are? Yeah, all right,
• 1:13:41
  we're gonna move on next story. Let us know, we guys think
• 1:13:43
  about this in the comments. Now, this is kind of I think this
• 1:13:45
  is kind of a big one. Except so let's talk about Lewis Rossman and
• 1:13:50
  Amazon. So, Mike j I'm gonna give it to you again. So
• 1:13:55
  Lewis Rossman, YouTuber most responsible for breaking the story about the man whose Amazon
• 1:14:02
  smart house services were shut down for alleged racism, appears to be facing some
• 1:14:09
  blowback from Amazon. As you guys might know Lewis Rossman, he's a YouTuber.
• 1:14:15
  He's very big on the right to repair, which certain companies, especially
• 1:14:19
  electronics companies, but namely his big feuds with Apple. They're they're not super
• 1:14:27
  keen on and he has been trying to take them to task. But he
• 1:14:30
  dabbles in other things occasionally. He's been really big on the Reddit boycott as
• 1:14:36
  of late. But this came across his desk and he took a look at
• 1:14:43
  this and went, oh, well, that seems kind of messed up,
• 1:14:46
  and he kind of broke the story and he's he's where I found out about
• 1:14:50
  it. At least and he's I don't want to say it's solely responsible,
• 1:14:56
  but I think he's one of the biggest reasons why this story kind of got
• 1:15:00
  to where it got, which was eventually to not quite front page news,
• 1:15:06
  but to you know, main media channels. So about a week and a
• 1:15:15
  half after he drops the story and it kind of blows up, goes viral,
• 1:15:20
  Rossman received an email from Amazon stating that he had been rejected from the
• 1:15:26
  Amazon Associates program. So, for those that don't know the Amazon Associates program,
• 1:15:30
  if you've ever seen like someone who has like custom YouTube links, like
• 1:15:34
  hey, if you want to like have the microphone that I have, or
• 1:15:39
  you want to use the keyboard that I have or the tools that I use,
• 1:15:44
  you know, look down in the low bar and there's a link to
• 1:15:46
  Amazon that's custom and basically like if you buy the item through that person's link,
• 1:15:53
  they get a cut of the money. Of course, not a huge
• 1:15:56
  one, not a big one, nothing major, but like know, it
• 1:16:00
  adds up, especially if you're like a really really big YouTuber. You know,
• 1:16:03
  you can make maybe a couple hundred bucks off that a month. But
• 1:16:08
  they said they were going to kick him out of there, so in the
• 1:16:13
  email, they accused Rossman of, among other things, because there were other
• 1:16:16
  accusations using friends, employees, relatives, or contractors of his to purchase items
• 1:16:26
  using his store link to personally enriched Rossman. Because again, the way it
• 1:16:31
  works is the more people buy the stuff through the links, the more money
• 1:16:34
  you get. And that's a huge violation of the of the agreement is you
• 1:16:41
  know, getting personal friends. But again, this is like one of the
• 1:16:44
  dumbest ways to make money. It's like, yeah, you get your friends
• 1:16:47
  to spend thousands of dollars and you make pennies on the dollar from it.
• 1:16:54
  Not exactly what I would call it get rich Crick's quick scheme. So Amazon
• 1:16:59
  did not provide any evidence of these claims, but nevertheless they terminated his affiliate
• 1:17:03
  account that was open for nearly seven years with no issues. Naturally, Rossman,
• 1:17:12
  in a video vehemently denied these claims by Amazon and disclosed that he makes
• 1:17:16
  almost no real money from the affiliate program in the first place, and like,
• 1:17:23
  he's also one of these guys. It's like, why would I need
• 1:17:26
  to do this. I work for a billionaire. I have a very successful
• 1:17:30
  side business repairing like laptops and cell phones. I'm making pretty decent money on
• 1:17:40
  YouTube. Why would I need to call on a couple of bucks off of
• 1:17:45
  Amazon per month? This makes no sense. But Rossman believes this is a
• 1:17:50
  clear cut case of retaliation for breaking the Smarthouse story, and I can't really
• 1:17:59
  disagree with him. So last week, last week, we reported all of
• 1:18:05
  us, I mean, in this sector of the media, we all reported
• 1:18:10
  on the story like it's the first time it happened, like it's the beginning
• 1:18:15
  of some ominous Iceberger. It's sort of a natural rhetorical tendency, but in
• 1:18:21
  a way it's kind of naive. It's it's already a week later, and
• 1:18:27
  now we're wondering, Okay, so how many times has this already happened?
• 1:18:31
  If efforts are being made to censor search stories and very associate information, if
• 1:18:39
  it's me saying, if there's any area in society whether it's not happening,
• 1:18:47
  then in whole likelihood, this isn't the first time it's happened. It's just
• 1:18:51
  the first time it's made it through Amazon's various legal firewalls and has managed to
• 1:18:59
  surface in the general media. We could generate some kind of formula, some
• 1:19:03
  kind of theorem protecting for how long something has already been happening by the time
• 1:19:10
  it makes it into the general media, let alone the mass media or the
• 1:19:15
  mainstream media or the establishment media or whatever. Kind of like something like time
• 1:19:20
  equals x y squared, where x is how well it serves the work agenda
• 1:19:26
  and why its current search score in Google trends or whatever. Basically, by
• 1:19:33
  the time you hear about something something that damages the narrative, it's already shot
• 1:19:42
  past you light speed, and now it's in the past. It's already a
• 1:19:45
  common occurrence. If Amazon is responsible for some bullshit, you won't hear about
• 1:19:56
  it for years. If the CIA is responsible for some bullshit, you won't
• 1:20:01
  hear about it for half a century at least. So you would have to
• 1:20:06
  conclude that there's some bullshit out there that we're not going to hear about until
• 1:20:13
  twenty three, twenty three. There's stuff we know about Hunter Biden is just
• 1:20:20
  the stuff we know that's just one laptop. Wow, they are at two
• 1:20:26
  laptops. Hunter is a generous fellow in the comedy of errors that is his
• 1:20:31
  life. But think about the laptops we don't know about. Sure that once
• 1:20:39
  he actually remembered to pick up from the repair shop. There could be orders
• 1:20:44
  of magnitude more incriminating information out there, and there's there's some cranky guy in
• 1:20:51
  a suit in some office somewhere in Washington, DC who knows about all of
• 1:20:58
  it, about everything on every laptop, and no one else ever will know
• 1:21:04
  about all that stuff until someone digs up some time capsule that's been dated sealed
• 1:21:12
  until the next ice age or whatever. But rest assured. On quite the
• 1:21:15
  other hand, if it's a story that serves the work agenda, like Orange
• 1:21:21
  Man indicted, then that you'll notice the time warp moves in the other direction.
• 1:21:30
  It goes back in time. The mainstream media will report on it before
• 1:21:35
  it's even happened, and they will report on it like it's something that's been
• 1:21:40
  happening all the time, every day since the dawn of time. So yeah,
• 1:21:46
  like I was alluding to in the last story, inconvenient truths gets sent
• 1:21:51
  into the future, opportunistic lies gets sent into the past. It's like they
• 1:22:00
  have a time machine without even having to bother inventing a time machine. I'm
• 1:22:04
  going to call it doctor Random mccam's theory of mainstream relativity. Time really is
• 1:22:11
  an illusion, folks, lunchtime, doubly so, especially during the phenomenon we
• 1:22:17
  call lunchtime. Make of that you will, Oh, there you go.
• 1:22:26
  When it comes to um this issue, I think the biggest thing I have
• 1:22:31
  to say about this is this. This kind of proves that that statement,
• 1:22:38
  that point that Rossman himself makes, that you buy things you labor for for
• 1:22:47
  for currency, and then you spend the currency that is the trade off for
• 1:22:53
  your labor for a thing and you don't own it. Why are you paying
• 1:22:59
  money for things that you don't owe because you're in a situation where you think
• 1:23:03
  you have to have them. You know, we believe we have to have
• 1:23:06
  mobile phones, which are not phones, they're computers there in your you know,
• 1:23:11
  you got a computer in your pocket. Shouldn't really be a big deal
• 1:23:14
  to say that. I mean, I think everybody's probably got it figured out
• 1:23:16
  by now. Most of what we do with it has absolutely nothing to do
• 1:23:21
  with making phone calls. I don't think I've made a phone call with mine
• 1:23:27
  ten times in the last months, honestly. But I don't own it.
• 1:23:33
  You pay money to keep it, and you pay money to use it,
• 1:23:38
  but you can't just buy whichever one you want and use whichever service you want
• 1:23:43
  with it. I couldn't get whichever phone I wanted. I had to get
• 1:23:45
  one that my service provider was was compatible with. And if I bought one
• 1:23:51
  off the internet and took it into them, they could say, well,
• 1:23:55
  it's not one of ours. We're not going to supply. We're not gonna
• 1:23:58
  be like if you went to get ll at Speedway and they're like, well,
• 1:24:01
  you didn't buy your truck from Marathon, so we're not gonna, um,
• 1:24:06
  we're not gonna put gas in your truck. Right that That's pretty much
• 1:24:11
  how the system operates. Um. And you know that's they they don't they'll
• 1:24:18
  do that to to be able to make deals with different companies and and get
• 1:24:25
  money from them. And it's all about making money off of you. But
• 1:24:28
  the minute that they think that you've made a dime, they do this.
• 1:24:32
  The minute that they're criticized, they do this. Uh. And and this
• 1:24:38
  isn't the first time I've seen it. Um. I probably was about twenty
• 1:24:45
  three twenty four years old when I ran into the guy in Finlay, Ohio
• 1:24:51
  who was homeless living in his truck because he sued his bank and they shut
• 1:25:00
  off all of his financials, not just the ones with them. They blocked
• 1:25:05
  off every avenue of um. Like, he couldn't cash checks, he couldn't
• 1:25:12
  get paid for his work, he couldn't do his job anymore, he couldn't
• 1:25:15
  cash in his IRA, even with a penalty. He couldn't do anything.
• 1:25:21
  And that was before. That was before AOL. Actually was was a popular
• 1:25:30
  thing that was there was before AOL unlimited at least um So it wasn't something
• 1:25:38
  that you know, you're you're looking at today's everything is smart, and everything
• 1:25:44
  is online, and everything is communicating with the company a distance away and all
• 1:25:47
  that. This was just local and and that happened. Um, this is
• 1:25:54
  the situation you're in if you want to be able to use your labor to
• 1:26:00
  earn a living and support yourself to make sure that you and your family have
• 1:26:04
  a roof over your head. So make sure that you and your family have
• 1:26:09
  food and clothing and everything utilities. This has to be fought because that's the
• 1:26:15
  end result of this. The end result of this is any company can cut
• 1:26:21
  you off at any time from things that you've paid for as long as they
• 1:26:28
  are of that nature. There they have a connection to the internet, right,
• 1:26:35
  can get shut off. So there you go. Yeah, I don't
• 1:26:44
  really have much else to add except that I'm glad that Rossman is being very
• 1:26:46
  vocal about this, and I think that people really should take into consideration their
• 1:26:53
  relationship with whoever they get things from, to see if it's like, you
• 1:26:59
  know, are you being taken for a ride, are you buying things or
• 1:27:02
  are you participating in some kind of service that could be taken away from you
• 1:27:09
  if you have the wrong opinions or say the wrong things. That's something that
• 1:27:15
  we we're going to have to be more adamant about. So that's what I
• 1:27:18
  would say. You know, I wouldn't support Amazon, that would just be
• 1:27:25
  done. I don't have to. I try to buy local whenever I can,
• 1:27:29
  so at least smaller businesses, you know where applicable won't be engaging in
• 1:27:34
  this because they don't have the means to do it. So anyway I would,
• 1:27:42
  I would encourage people one one specific thing, get to know your local
• 1:27:47
  farmer's market now, because when this kind of shit hits your grocery stores and
• 1:27:55
  you can be cut off from buying food, that's going to be your only
• 1:27:59
  source. Yeah, and you don't need smart devices honestly, they're they're they're
• 1:28:03
  gonna do more harm than good in my opinion, So don't do it.
• 1:28:08
  Okay, let us know you guys think about this one in the comments.
• 1:28:11
  Are you aware of Lewis Rossman? Do you watch any of those rights to
• 1:28:15
  repair? I've been getting into that lately actually because I've noticed that everything is
• 1:28:18
  made these days, especially electronics, to essentially with obsolescence in mind. So
• 1:28:25
  you know, you get a phone and they expect you to upgrade your phone
• 1:28:29
  in like a couple of years. You get a computer, it's made to
• 1:28:31
  break down. If you buy an Apple product, totally shit, like you
• 1:28:35
  can't do anything to it without violate or you know, invalidating the warranty.
• 1:28:41
  So just you know, maybe we should be fixing our own shit. Maybe
• 1:28:44
  we should go back to a time where people can you know, get repairmen
• 1:28:47
  to come and take care of these things for you instead of just throwing it
• 1:28:50
  out and getting another one. And the same people who have you do that
• 1:28:54
  are complaining about the environment, you know, So just to think about,
• 1:28:59
  yeah, planned obsolescence you were mentioning, that's actually very widespread and has been
• 1:29:03
  for a long time. Yea, And I will point out an example,
• 1:29:08
  my clothes dryer O our household. Our clothes dryer is older than all three
• 1:29:13
  of my adult children, and it has worked the whole time. Eventually the
• 1:29:18
  heating element wears out and you can replace that at home. You don't have
• 1:29:24
  to take it to a repairman. You don't have to hire somebody to repair
• 1:29:26
  that. Right. I've worked in various homes for various people who have more
• 1:29:32
  modern appliances because they are supplied by a company, because you know, these
• 1:29:36
  are people with disabilities that have companies that provide care for them and provide housing
• 1:29:42
  and everything, so they have newer stuff. It breaks every couple of years.
• 1:29:46
  The usage isn't worse or bigger or more, you know, it's it's
• 1:29:53
  really hard to break a clothes dryer. Actually you have to do something really
• 1:29:58
  stupid to break a clothes dryer. But they wear out faster, and I
• 1:30:03
  mean I mean every couple of years. And same thing with cars, same
• 1:30:09
  thing with computers, same thing with cameras, same thing with everything that you
• 1:30:12
  own. Your appliances in your kitchen, all of it has that same it's
• 1:30:18
  plastic parts, crappy electronic components. Everything shorts out, everything breaks and it's
• 1:30:26
  designed to do that, so you have to buy another one. And this
• 1:30:30
  this is the next step of not only is it made to not last,
• 1:30:36
  so you have to buy another one, and another one and another one,
• 1:30:40
  but also it's not really yours. And if they don't like the way you
• 1:30:45
  live your life, your corporations that sell you these things can shut it off
• 1:30:50
  and not let you use it anymore. Yeah, And I'm actually with phones,
• 1:30:57
  it's funny because they actually like up date it until it dies, Like
• 1:31:00
  there's an update that basically makes your phone shit. I have this tablet and
• 1:31:05
  I got it like a couple of years ago, and it's it's so it's
• 1:31:09
  so slow now because of the updates they've actually they they plan it to become
• 1:31:15
  obsolete. And the people in the store will say this too. They'd be
• 1:31:16
  like, well, you're gonna need to upgrade your phone soon because it's kind
• 1:31:19
  of old. I mean, it's probably gonna start breaking down. It's like,
• 1:31:23
  why would it break down, Oh, because you're gonna patch it into
• 1:31:26
  oblivion, that's why. So, Yeah, I had a phone, I
• 1:31:30
  think it was an iPhone six or seven or whatever, and I've had it
• 1:31:34
  for the longest time and I got a message from a friend of mine.
• 1:31:39
  He's like, well, you know you're gonna have to upgrade your phone otherwise
• 1:31:44
  it won't work anymore. Like yep, talking about my phone, Like it's
• 1:31:47
  fine, but that's how that's how Apple does. Ye. Apple is absolutely
• 1:31:54
  the worst about that for anyone he uses. Do not update to it because
• 1:32:00
  it's all it compossible to do is fuck it up. Yeah all right,
• 1:32:06
  well anyway, let us know you guys think about this. In the comments,
• 1:32:09
  I got a couple of super chat, a super chat, a super
• 1:32:12
  chat, and we'll continue. So another anonymous person sent us five bucks and
• 1:32:16
  says, how many new followers does HBr get monthly' been following HBr for nine
• 1:32:20
  years and it seems like y'all haven't grown much. Has the MRM made any
• 1:32:24
  national progress in any country? I see channels like Better Bachelor and Amy Roma.
• 1:32:29
  I know, she's a chameleon that covers similar issues and they grow like
• 1:32:31
  Bamboo. Well, um, oh, we know we could be a big
• 1:32:35
  drama channel like Roma, and yeah, that would definitely get us clicks and
• 1:32:40
  views, but I don't think that would give anything substantial or of merits.
• 1:32:45
  Yeah, I mean, what I can tell you is YouTube loves us?
• 1:32:48
  Yeah, just since and since we first came about YouTube was like, oh,
• 1:32:53
  oh you guys, that's activists, that's amazing. Please do come on
• 1:32:59
  board. We will give you your your silver YouTube play buttons as soon as
• 1:33:04
  you get say oh you're not getting two one hundred thousand, we are?
• 1:33:08
  How's that happening? We don't know. Crank, crank, crank. We
• 1:33:12
  don't know how this is happening. It's so weird. The feminists and the
• 1:33:16
  neo Marxists are doing really well. I guess it's just because they're popular.
• 1:33:21
  But you guys, I don't I don't know what it is. Don't look
• 1:33:26
  at the other room, don't get algorithms nothing, don't look at that.
• 1:33:29
  That's not that's not happening. There's no such thing as an algroom. But
• 1:33:31
  ah, hi, yeah, I don't know. I let's let's just wax
• 1:33:35
  lyrical about how the antisw skeptic community from twenty sixteen magically just died. Isn't
• 1:33:45
  it funny how the pioneers of anyone who spoke out against our bullshit have all
• 1:33:56
  just disappeared into nothingness. You guys all argue amongst yourselves about what you did
• 1:34:01
  wrong, because it's not like you can just add one line of code to
• 1:34:08
  an algorithmic YouTube that just defines what what's going to happen to our channel?
• 1:34:15
  Yeah, you know, it's funny. People said the same thing, be
• 1:34:17
  such a conspiracy theorist dot com happened. People said the same thing to me
• 1:34:24
  about being throttled on Twitter. Oh, it's just that you're not popular.
• 1:34:28
  Nobody wants to hear what you have to say, you know, And it
• 1:34:31
  was a consistent thing. Look at that, you're only getting a couple of
• 1:34:33
  likes and stuff on your on your tweets. Are you actually engaging with people?
• 1:34:40
  Well? And I would look and my engagement was really low, and
• 1:34:43
  I could I could point to where the change happened. And it was really
• 1:34:46
  weird too, because I went through and I went through a period where I
• 1:34:50
  was looking at how many views I was getting to my tweets, and I
• 1:34:57
  was nervous about getting too much attention, and then all of a sudden,
• 1:35:00
  one day it was exactly the opposite. There was a series of weirdnesses that
• 1:35:06
  happened with the system that Twitter allows you to use to figure out your engagement.
• 1:35:14
  All of a sudden, my statistics were wonky. I couldn't get them.
• 1:35:17
  They disappeared. I had no statistics for particular days that I had previously
• 1:35:23
  had statistics for, and when they came back, they were different. And
• 1:35:27
  I started screenshooting at the time because I was like, this is really weird
• 1:35:30
  and I thought it was some sort of a glitch. And pretty soon that
• 1:35:35
  stops. But now nobody's answering, you know, things that I've said.
• 1:35:41
  People are saying they can't find my account, and my views for my tweets
• 1:35:46
  were were down, you know, by by like well they were down to
• 1:35:53
  a fraction, Like I was like a hundredth of what I was getting really
• 1:36:00
  really really throttled. And then, you know, after Musk took over,
• 1:36:03
  nothing changed immediately, and I'm like, ah, well, you know,
• 1:36:06
  maybe they were right. Maybe I pissed people off too much, because I'm
• 1:36:09
  pretty good at pissing people off. I think most people have noticed that ni
• 1:36:14
  I don't even have to try, right. Well, then the stuff about
• 1:36:18
  the Twitter files started coming out, and it was admitted that they were throttling
• 1:36:25
  people based on political views. And the team that remained after all the people
• 1:36:31
  who didn't want to work left, they started removing some of the like and
• 1:36:36
  it with stuff like this, you can't just like go in there with a
• 1:36:40
  pair of tweezers and remove an algorithm. You have to go in and rewrite
• 1:36:45
  another language of writing. You have to rewrite whole pages and make sure that
• 1:36:49
  you haven't removed one detail that actually fifty other things are tied to. And
• 1:36:56
  so they had to go through and analyze and start removing that, start dismantling
• 1:37:00
  that. And at one point they dismantled something in that mess, and my
• 1:37:05
  engagement went up times a hundred again. All of a sudden, I was
• 1:37:10
  getting um replies from people that, hey, this is the first time I've
• 1:37:13
  seen your account four years, you know, and we aren't going to get
• 1:37:18
  that with Twitter or with the YouTube. I mean, there isn't a you
• 1:37:24
  know, an independent person with his own ideas that that that you know,
• 1:37:28
  it wants things to be open and communication to be like a mosh pit on
• 1:37:32
  YouTube, that that's going to come in and eliminate the throttling algorithms and dismantle
• 1:37:40
  that system. So we're never going to be able to prove that that's what's
• 1:37:45
  happening. But I can tell you there was a point at which we had
• 1:37:51
  exponential growth on YouTube, and as soon as we started to get attention,
• 1:37:57
  there was a clamp down. Yeah it was on the main channel, but
• 1:38:01
  we stopped using the main channel because just like doctor Randomercam, every time we
• 1:38:06
  uploaded something, we would lose subscribers, and we weren't sure if there were
• 1:38:11
  people leaving. I mean they probably weren't. They were just being unsubscribed.
• 1:38:15
  So but I want to because we really gotta move on. So I want
• 1:38:20
  to answer your question. Have we grown We got in this last month one
• 1:38:26
  new sub We're at about nine thousand, um, two hundred and sixty subs
• 1:38:32
  right now, and actually yeah, we well we're our our views, our
• 1:38:39
  views are up, so we're getting more views, more watchtime, etc.
• 1:38:44
  But um, yeah, I mean I think it's just because honestly, uh,
• 1:38:47
  to quickly comment on what you're saying, Koe Roma, she has the
• 1:38:51
  advantage of doing shorts and you know she's I guess some people find her attractive.
• 1:38:58
  It's a woman. I think women get get like plus five on their
• 1:39:02
  shit, and um, she you know, UH makes just short videos and
• 1:39:08
  they're not like super deep. So I think that it's it's not like as
• 1:39:12
  dangerous to let her just grow. Maybe they will throughout her later, I
• 1:39:15
  don't know. And then as far as Better Bachelor goes, he's a Michtowel
• 1:39:19
  creator, he's not a men's rights guy. He probably knows about the stuff.
• 1:39:24
  But again he's just commenting on the dating scene and so many other podcasts
• 1:39:27
  do that already. But I think that our perspective is not it's not really
• 1:39:31
  there. It's it's it's talking about like you know, we're trying to talk
• 1:39:35
  about root causes of problems that must be solved. So I'm hoping maybe we'll
• 1:39:42
  go ahead. It needs to be said, Um, YouTube has the ability
• 1:39:46
  to manipulate any numbers they want to. Yeah, if you have if you
• 1:39:51
  have high view numbers, they can tweak those numbers so it looks like that
• 1:39:56
  lower than they are. If you have high subscribement numbers, the admins that
• 1:40:00
  YouTube can tweak those numbers, so it makes it look like those numbers aren't
• 1:40:04
  assied there. They can present any reality they want to. And despite their
• 1:40:11
  being all these these right wingers out there, these conservatives out there who are
• 1:40:15
  going Look how demonetized I am, Look how throttled I am. Look if
• 1:40:21
  you have a million subscribers. If you have, if you've had half a
• 1:40:27
  million subscribers, it's because YouTube is letting you have that many subscribers that it's
• 1:40:35
  perfectly within that it like even the slackers at YouTube who are in charge of
• 1:40:42
  coding, all they need to do is add one line of coding. If
• 1:40:45
  channel dot nam equals honey Badger, radio equals equals I don't know, whatever
• 1:40:51
  they plug into to make sure that your numbers never display what the posessed to
• 1:41:00
  God. Yeah, there's another aspect to this too, when you have in
• 1:41:04
  depth discussions that don't just take the surface of outrage porn and say, gosh,
• 1:41:15
  this is terrible, this is happening, I'm so upset, and then
• 1:41:16
  move on to the next thing. You you end up there are people that
• 1:41:20
  will watch hours and hours of this outrage porn, after that outrage porn,
• 1:41:26
  after that outrage porn, and they'll be they'll feel informed because they know these
• 1:41:31
  things are going on, but they may not understand the causes behind them and
• 1:41:35
  so on. And I think, well, people are talking about actual porn
• 1:41:42
  porn in the chat. I don't know the answer to that. I don't
• 1:41:45
  know if she does her she doesn't, but she doesn't have an only fan,
• 1:41:49
  but she doesn't have an only fans, but she does have a patreon,
• 1:41:53
  so don't there is there is some that I guess there's stuff on the
• 1:41:57
  patreon. She might have stopped, but I know that there was. So
• 1:42:00
  that's all I'm gonna say. I'm not popular. I was gonna say.
• 1:42:04
  The thing that will make somebody popular is doing outrage porn, not nude porn,
• 1:42:11
  but sure clickbait basically that gets people riled up and never actually there's no
• 1:42:20
  paydirt of Okay, this this bad thing happened. I'm going to talk about
• 1:42:25
  it. Here's here's why it's happening, Here's what can be done to address
• 1:42:31
  that cause. And here's my opinion on you know, how we can achieve
• 1:42:36
  that, Like you leave those last three bits off and you just go on
• 1:42:41
  to the next one and the next one and the next one. There's a
• 1:42:44
  lot of that now, and I think those are the accounts that are growing
• 1:42:48
  exponentially. And it's not a coincidence that administrators like people who promote outrage porn
• 1:43:00
  in terms of men's issues, but don't like people to talk about causes and
• 1:43:05
  effects and maybe being able to affect change in order to address those causes,
• 1:43:12
  because they don't want those things to change. Yeah, well, they'll emphasize
• 1:43:17
  people that do this outrage porn business because they sort of provide a cover or
• 1:43:26
  detract from the ability of people to find and watch the channels that actually address
• 1:43:32
  things. So I have a plan, hoping that it will help us grow,
• 1:43:40
  is to put my dog on camera right now. He is trying to
• 1:43:45
  find a new comfortable position to sleep in. Jojo and Joo has some more
• 1:43:48
  good boys in the chat for Jojo. Are you okay, buddy? Are
• 1:43:51
  you okay? Look at him? Look him, look at the face.
• 1:43:58
  I know. So you know, animals always work. So maybe we'll go
• 1:44:02
  a million subs just with the Jojo cam action and that that will do it.
• 1:44:09
  So okay, anyway, I got I gotta finish the super chats.
• 1:44:15
  Look at that. Look at that phase, um so Zippierre, thank you
• 1:44:19
  for that. And another anonymous person gives us five bucks and says McDonald's ice
• 1:44:25
  cream machines as a prime example of planned obsolescens. Have you seen the documentary
• 1:44:28
  on it? Apparently there is a class action lawsuit about it. No,
• 1:44:32
  but I will look into it, and I think that's it for Oh no,
• 1:44:39
  wait, no, that's it. Yeah, uh no way. Richard
• 1:44:43
  Bierre gave us I think I read this one already, but I'll read it
• 1:44:46
  anyway, four ninety nine and says how many were locked out of payment processors
• 1:44:49
  and demonetize for wrong speak again and even alternative processors car caved into the woke
• 1:44:56
  mop too. Yeah. No, We've covered that in the past. I'm
• 1:44:59
  saying this is just another step in that pattern again, Like this video,
• 1:45:06
  just for the dog. You don't have to do it for me, Do
• 1:45:09
  it for Jojo because he wants he wants you to pet him, and the
• 1:45:13
  only way he can do it is by smashing the light button. So pet
• 1:45:15
  him with your light buttons, everybody, And all right, So we're gonna
• 1:45:19
  move on to the next story. Let us know you guys think about this
• 1:45:23
  in the comments. This one is interesting. So a woman from Kentucky shot
• 1:45:28
  and killed her uber driver in al Paso, Texas, believing she was being
• 1:45:32
  kidnapped. On June sixteenth. Phoebe Copas, forty eight, was in an
• 1:45:38
  uber driven by a fifty two year old Daniel Piedro Garcia. At some point
• 1:45:42
  in the ride, Copas believed she was being taken to Mexico. She was
• 1:45:45
  on our way to meet her boyfriend at a casino, and police said there
• 1:45:49
  was no evidence Piedro was driving off course, but that Copas was frightened by
• 1:45:54
  signs that read Juarez, Mexico, so there were signs on the street.
• 1:46:00
  Copas allegedly grabbed a handgun from her purse and shot Piedra in the back of
• 1:46:04
  the head. The vehicle came to a stop after crashing because it was while
• 1:46:09
  he was driving. She shot him into the head while he was driving.
• 1:46:12
  The vehicle came to a stop after crashing into barriers on a freeway. She
• 1:46:15
  then allegedly texted a photo of her wounded Uber driver to her boyfriend. Pedra,
• 1:46:21
  who was shot in the head and wrist, was taken to a nearby
• 1:46:25
  hospital and was on life support for several days. His family decided to take
• 1:46:29
  him off as doctor said he would not recover. Initially charged with aggravated assault
• 1:46:35
  causing serious bodily injury, Copa's charges were upgraded to murder and bond set to
• 1:46:42
  one point five million dollars. Piedra's wife explained on a go fund me for
• 1:46:46
  hospital and funeral expenses that her husband was the sole provider of the family and
• 1:46:50
  unable to work at his last job because of a knee injury. A statement
• 1:46:56
  to the El Paso Times, Piedra's niece dd Lopez described her uncle as a
• 1:47:00
  hard working and really funny man. He was never in a bad mood.
• 1:47:03
  He was always the one that if you saw if he saw you in a
• 1:47:06
  bad mood, he would come over and try to lift you up. Now,
• 1:47:10
  I just want to say about this before we comment on it, that,
• 1:47:15
  um, here's the picture of the man. This woman's gun. She
• 1:47:20
  got it like legally, there's no there's there's nothing about it, Like the
• 1:47:25
  of the charges she faced. There's nothing about you know, her carrying illegally.
• 1:47:29
  So this is a gun that she is supposed to own. So,
• 1:47:31
  um, this is not a case of someone having a gun that're not supposed
• 1:47:34
  to have in a state that has gun laws or restrictions or whatever. So
• 1:47:39
  the reason why I picked this, I'm just gonna make this statement. We
• 1:47:42
  have talked in the past about, um, the problem with our culture today
• 1:47:49
  and giving women access to guns. Now, I am a big Second Amendment
• 1:47:55
  guy. I'm pro gun people should have it. But the problem is This
• 1:47:59
  is a problem, okay, is that women have been propagandized from birth to
• 1:48:03
  fear men to basically consider them dangerous. And this is why, you know,
• 1:48:09
  because because feminism has said while they're a rapists everywhere, you're gonna get
• 1:48:13
  sex, traffic, you're gonna get kidnapped, whatever, right, And so
• 1:48:17
  what the problem is is that women that you know that don't take the steps
• 1:48:23
  to protect themselves do in fact put themselves at some risk, especially in high
• 1:48:27
  crime areas, just like the men who would do the same. But when
• 1:48:30
  you give women guns, that the if they think that every man is out
• 1:48:34
  to get them, then one day might come where they will take a man
• 1:48:39
  out because they're afraid he's going to rape them. So the problem that okay,
• 1:48:43
  so the issue is this, it's the same issue with libertarian thought all
• 1:48:46
  over the place. The issue with it is is that I would like to
• 1:48:49
  live in a world where where we could be free in that way, where
• 1:48:54
  we could all be you know, carry guns too for our own protection,
• 1:48:58
  where we would have a right to body anton because it is a natural you
• 1:49:01
  know, god given right or natural right that we're supposed to have. But
• 1:49:05
  the problem is is that feminists have and others like them have essentially fear mongered
• 1:49:13
  women for so long that they might do something like this. Now, this
• 1:49:16
  woman might be just crazy, but I think that it's it's a legitimate thing
• 1:49:20
  to concern yourself with. Is like, you know, what are are we
• 1:49:24
  living at a time where we can essentially give women license to kill if they
• 1:49:30
  feel afraid, because they might, you see what I'm saying. So anyway,
• 1:49:33
  those those are my thoughts on that. That's why I bought this story
• 1:49:35
  up. Yeah, when I posted this in the chat, I think I
• 1:49:40
  posted something about this being a direct result of the perceived right to feel safe,
• 1:49:45
  which is not a right. It doesn't exist. There is no right
• 1:49:48
  to feel safe. You don't have a right to any particular feeling. You
• 1:49:54
  have a right to react however you are going to emotionally right. You have
• 1:49:59
  a right to decide how you feel, but you don't have a right to
• 1:50:03
  have um the conditions provided to you to slip into a feeling of safety.
• 1:50:11
  And that's that's something that women have been telling other women and young you know,
• 1:50:15
  older women, telling younger women and so on for so long that they
• 1:50:21
  are now um infringing on the right to live the right to autonomy, the
• 1:50:29
  right to um to to travel, the right to engage in in free trade
• 1:50:35
  with other people um because they don't feel safe right, and and the the
• 1:50:41
  right to feel safe, which again is not a real right, has been
• 1:50:46
  used for well over a century to attack other people's rights to the detriment of
• 1:50:53
  all of society. M The the anti alcohol movement came out of women's right
• 1:51:00
  to feel safe. They used the idea that drunks were wife beaters to get
• 1:51:08
  get the laws changed, to get the amendment put into place, and everything
• 1:51:12
  that that's the whole Temperance movement was based on a false allegation right, a
• 1:51:17
  whole society wide false allegation. This this story is about a woman exercising the
• 1:51:27
  perceived right to feel safe in violation of the very real right to life.
• 1:51:34
  And when it comes to the right to bear arms and the right to defend
• 1:51:40
  yourself, those are limited rights. You don't have the right to defend yourself
• 1:51:45
  against nothing. You have the right to defend yourself against an imminent threat,
• 1:51:49
  not a threat that you feel, a threat that is real. This man
• 1:51:56
  was not a real threat. There was no imminent threat. So this woman
• 1:52:00
  took upon herself to feel like she had the right to defend herself when there
• 1:52:04
  was nothing to defend against. Until women can be accountable like a man for
• 1:52:14
  distinguishing between a perceived threat and an imminent threat. And when I say perceived
• 1:52:23
  threat, I don't necessarily mean that you have seen evidence of a threat,
• 1:52:29
  but that you feel threatened even if there is no evidence of a threat.
• 1:52:33
  That's her perception. There is nothing else but her perception. There. She
• 1:52:39
  had, She had her her combined assumptions around his ethnicity and assumptions around some
• 1:52:46
  signs. Gee, this guy, this guy is Latino. He must be
• 1:52:49
  kidnapping me. Like, that's a prejudice. You know the woman was black.
• 1:52:58
  Oh geez, So a black prejudice woman against God's That doesn't surprise me
• 1:53:03
  though, actually after some news stories in the last few years have come out.
• 1:53:08
  But yeah, uh, Like, we are at a point now where
• 1:53:15
  a night motorcyclists beat me to it. Gotta love him. We're at a
• 1:53:20
  point now where a woman can demonize a blind guy for staring at her in
• 1:53:27
  the gym and get him thrown out based on a perceived threat. There is
• 1:53:31
  literally no real threat there. He can't even really eyeball her. Because he
• 1:53:34
  is blind. That's a real news story too. I'm not surprised that this
• 1:53:41
  happened, and I'm not going to be surprised if she ends up getting more
• 1:53:47
  lenient treatment than she should because she's a woman and she felt threatened, she
• 1:53:53
  shouldn't she shouldn't get more lenient treatment. But this is where we are with
• 1:53:59
  this, this idea that women have a right to feel safe. So until
• 1:54:03
  that changes, you know, I got to agree with Brian, being a
• 1:54:09
  woman might be you know, as much as I want to be able to
• 1:54:13
  own a gun, being a woman might have to be a disqualifying factor.
• 1:54:18
  You know, unless our society is going to hold women as accountable for assessing
• 1:54:26
  their their situations and appraising their actions before they'd take them and not shooting somebody
• 1:54:33
  who is not a threat, unless they're going to hold them as accountable form
• 1:54:38
  for that as they would hold a man, then women shouldn't have guns before
• 1:54:45
  Well, I'm just going to reget to right Whathan just said. But before
• 1:54:50
  we get into the matter of what made her careless, men are should I
• 1:54:54
  say, apter the matter that has just described in terms of what may her
• 1:55:00
  kill this man? Whatever set of ideologies led her to pull the trigger.
• 1:55:05
  We really need to establish some things we haven't been told. What we don't
• 1:55:13
  know, as far as I can tell, is what happened between when she
• 1:55:16
  pulled the gun and when she fired the gun. I'm not privy to any
• 1:55:21
  audio or video clips. I'm not sure if there are any. This,
• 1:55:27
  by the way, is a very good case in point for why every Uber
• 1:55:30
  driver should make an effort to install cameras in their vehicles, even if it's
• 1:55:35
  not a requirement by Uber the company. It's important because we need to know
• 1:55:42
  how the events played out. It's just as important as it is to fixing
• 1:55:45
  body cameras to policemen, did she just sit there quietly, you know,
• 1:55:54
  silently panicking to herself, and then she pulled out and without saying a word,
• 1:56:01
  she shot the guy in the back of the head, just like that,
• 1:56:04
  you know, ask questions later and so on. Because if that's the
• 1:56:08
  case, I don't care what set of ideologies are in your head, that
• 1:56:15
  right there is cold blood in any possible given definition of what cold blood even
• 1:56:20
  means. I don't care how insane you are, if you're capable of executing
• 1:56:28
  someone on no further basis than some I believe road signs you happen to read
• 1:56:36
  with the word Mexico on, you are extremely dangerous as a person, and
• 1:56:43
  you need to be poked in a padded room for the rest of your days.
• 1:56:47
  It's a suspicious story, isn't it. I saw the word Mexico on
• 1:56:54
  a sign, so I just killed a man. Here is something you can't
• 1:56:59
  unders stand, your honor. It's it's the It's the kind of story a
• 1:57:03
  lying psychopath with spin in order to cover the reality. But she simply wanted
• 1:57:11
  to kill a man and get away with it. However, yea. Given
• 1:57:15
  that she apparently shot the guy while the car was still in motion on the
• 1:57:23
  highway, causing it to crash into the barriers of the freeway, this does
• 1:57:28
  not just be stupid. Yeah yeah, but it doesn't suggest that it was
• 1:57:31
  a cold calculated killing. If she just wanted to kill a man, she
• 1:57:36
  would have waited until the car was stationary so as to not endanger her own
• 1:57:43
  life in the process. Evidently, she did endanger her own life in the
• 1:57:46
  process. She shot the driver of a moving vehicle that she was in.
• 1:57:53
  She was willing to do that based on her own hysterical paranoia, which in
• 1:57:59
  a way. It's even more scary. If you thought self serving psychopaths were
• 1:58:04
  bad enough, wait until you've seen evil so concentrated that it will destroy itself
• 1:58:14
  in pursuit of destroying you. So that's probably how this played out. She
• 1:58:18
  pulled out the gun, held it to the back of this guy's head,
• 1:58:23
  and yelled something incoherent. I don't know you. That's my purse. Are
• 1:58:30
  you taking me New Mexico? Are you taking me New Mexico? Well no,
• 1:58:36
  but two signs as saying Mexico. You're going to rape me and sell
• 1:58:43
  my body path for fantinell, aren't you. No, it's quite normal to
• 1:58:47
  see signs for an international border within tens of miles of that international border.
• 1:58:55
  Where's your pride flag? You're a racist ban crash role. So yes,
• 1:59:00
  we do have a problem with ideologically paranoid women. Some of them are cold
• 1:59:08
  blooded killers. Some of them are hot blooded killers, but they're all one
• 1:59:15
  psychotic episode away from incidents of want in destruction of life, property, and
• 1:59:19
  infrastructure. Are there barriers in place? Are there checks and balances to stop
• 1:59:27
  insane people from owning a gun? Yes, yes there are, but they
• 1:59:31
  don't just ask you spot questions like is the sky blue? Or do women
• 1:59:38
  have penises? They tend to be references along the lines of has the state
• 1:59:45
  ever declared you to be mentally unstable? And unfortunately, the state will not
• 1:59:53
  declare even the batshittest, ass hattest, paranoid bodyline narcissist, dark triad feminists
• 2:00:00
  to be insane, no matter how insane they clearly are, and that,
• 2:00:08
  lads and gentlemen, is what needs to change. Feminism needs to be classified
• 2:00:13
  as the mental illness it is, and not as the righteous human rights movement
• 2:00:19
  that it never has been. If you can vet people, if you can
• 2:00:24
  vet people based on their perceived racism, if a man can get locked out
• 2:00:29
  of his house because of perceived racism, then sure as fuck we can find
• 2:00:34
  a way to at least be allowed to give passengers a one star review based
• 2:00:41
  on their perceived sexism against men. If you have pronouns in your bio,
• 2:00:47
  I'm not picking you up as an uber driver. If you have a Tumbler
• 2:00:51
  account, definitely not picking you up as an uber driver. If you're a
• 2:00:58
  registered Democrat, then I'm driving in the other direction as far as I physically
• 2:01:04
  can. Just to be safe, you should be allowed to do that at
• 2:01:10
  the very least, And if your profile as a driver at Uber gets canceled
• 2:01:15
  because of your repeated refusal to pick up crazy for the feminist Karen's, well,
• 2:01:23
  I guess that sucks. But at least you didn't get the bottom of
• 2:01:26
  your skulls shot out through the inside out, through the gaping mouth of your
• 2:01:31
  shocked peakachu face. Take the winds where you can get them. Maybe you
• 2:01:36
  should be boycotting Uber like you boycott, but like this seems it seems like
• 2:01:45
  it might be a more pressing issue. I don't know. Yeah, um,
• 2:01:50
  just one other thing. If they're wearing a mask when you kind of
• 2:01:54
  pull them up to strive by that, that's how you know they're wearing If
• 2:01:57
  they're still wearing a mask, just all right, I'm to say, yeah,
• 2:02:03
  yeah, go ahead. I find myself in the unenviable position of taking
• 2:02:09
  a contradictory stance here. I'm a very two a absolutist sort of person.
• 2:02:15
  This was actually one of my favorite things about being able to move out of
• 2:02:21
  California to a state that actually respects the Second Amendment. And while things like
• 2:02:29
  this are absolutely tragic, unfortunately, crazy people aren't really noticeable until they do
• 2:02:38
  something crazy. And this extends to both genders. I mean, if you
• 2:02:45
  want an example in the opposite direction, I don't know if anyone remembers the
• 2:02:49
  killing of Aaron Danielson who was in Portland as part of Patriot Prayer. Oh
• 2:02:58
  yeah, yeah, yeah sure. And you had the individual Michael Reinhall ye
• 2:03:02
  who from his retelling of the story, he was he was pinned down the
• 2:03:08
  behind enemy lines with MAGA trucks circling and honking and threatening and and and then
• 2:03:15
  Aaron Danielson approached him and and was like, you're going to make America great
• 2:03:19
  again? Right, And now all he could do was shoot him. And
• 2:03:24
  then we had the camera footage and it turned out that, yeah, I
• 2:03:27
  know, he stalked him for several blocks, hid in a parking structure,
• 2:03:30
  and then shot him in the back like an absolute coward. So unfortunately,
• 2:03:36
  this sickness, in my opinion, isn't something that we can solely condemn any
• 2:03:44
  gender for. Yes, you can talk about repercussions and more lenients, sentencings
• 2:03:50
  and things like that, but unfortunately, things like I said happen when you
• 2:03:58
  allow freedom. School shootings happen. Criminals do criminal things, batshit crazy women
• 2:04:06
  shoot their uber drivers, which again, you know, furthering the point,
• 2:04:11
  like do you think a guy with a gun to the back of his head
• 2:04:15
  would really be like, well, we're still going to Mexico. Yeah,
• 2:04:19
  sorry, that gun's not going to stop me. Lady, you're you're you're
• 2:04:21
  getting raped and your body's going to be dismembered for parts. Um. Yeah,
• 2:04:29
  I don't think that. I don't think that you're saying anything that's really
• 2:04:31
  contradictory because I'm still totally on board with the Second Amendment. I'm talking about
• 2:04:36
  what the potential consequences of the propagandizing of women is, you know, could
• 2:04:44
  potentially lead to. So I'm not I'm not against it still, but I
• 2:04:47
  think that it's like you can, if you give absolute freedom to an absolutely
• 2:04:51
  insane, paranoid culture, then you're gonna get a lot more insane paranoia.
• 2:04:57
  It's like burning down a church expecting all of the nuns and ministers to become
• 2:05:01
  atheists. So the problem is cultural, but the goal should still be you
• 2:05:09
  know, everything that you're that you advocate for, because I advocate for the
• 2:05:12
  same. It's just that like we can't just you know, do that without
• 2:05:16
  taking the consideration yes, they'll always be the occasional psycho that wants to kill
• 2:05:20
  people. That's just what you have to deal with when you want to live
• 2:05:24
  in a free society. But um, I you know, I do think
• 2:05:29
  that the the cultural problems have to be dealt with. Yeah, there are
• 2:05:34
  some things I've been watching happen um with conservative Twitter. I've actually a mutual
• 2:05:41
  follows with a lot of conservative Twitter, I believe it or not. But
• 2:05:45
  not the big wigs, right, just the regular regular folks. Nobody big
• 2:05:50
  ever notices me. Um, huh, you don't have a direct linder.
• 2:05:57
  That would be uh, that would be weird actually. But although anybody that
• 2:06:04
  wants to did for one or two did for a long time because you you
• 2:06:09
  could contact him through Fox News, you can't do that now. So unless
• 2:06:12
  he's put other direct contact information out there, you just have to tweet at
• 2:06:16
  him and hope he sees your tweets. But in any case, like your
• 2:06:19
  regular joes and regular chains, right, a lot of pro to a stuff
• 2:06:27
  that I've seen talked about is talked about in terms of women protecting themselves from
• 2:06:32
  men, and it bugs the hell out of me because when you actually look
• 2:06:39
  at crime statistics, the phenomenon of violent crime is divided very, very starkly
• 2:06:47
  between men and women. Right. Men are subjected to the whole spectrum of
• 2:06:55
  all different types of violent crime, and they whatever whatever happens in terms of
• 2:07:03
  violent crime, there's a man somewhere that's experienced it. Right, Whatever types
• 2:07:10
  of violent crime are committed, the majority of the victims, aside from a
• 2:07:15
  very few small categories, are men. So women don't need guns to protect
• 2:07:23
  themselves necessarily from men in general. And in fact, when you look at
• 2:07:28
  the types of violent crime that do affect women, it's not men who are
• 2:07:32
  strangers to them most of the time, right, It's men who are close
• 2:07:35
  to them and who have a history of problems. So essentially, our society
• 2:07:44
  has protected women so well that they've eliminated all of the threats except for the
• 2:07:50
  weirdest ones that are the hardest to predict or the hardest to admit are happening.
• 2:07:58
  And a gun's not necessarily going to protect you in that circumstance, because
• 2:08:03
  it's going to happen, and in um environment, in a situation in which
• 2:08:09
  you are making yourself vulnerable because you know that person. So that's it's it's
• 2:08:13
  the idea that that um threats from from male perpetrated crime are a reason why
• 2:08:22
  women might need guns should be the least part of the discussion. It's a
• 2:08:28
  it's a freedom, it's a right, but that's not what I'm approaching it
• 2:08:31
  from. In terms of female use of guns. It really really drives me
• 2:08:37
  nuts that we don't hold women accountable when they misuse things. Right we are.
• 2:08:41
  We have a cultural phenomenon of treating it like, oh my bad,
• 2:08:48
  I'm dizzy. I'm a woman. Oh my bad, I'm paranoid because I'm
• 2:08:52
  a woman. Oh my bad, I was on my period, you know,
• 2:08:56
  Oh my bad, I expose everybody to a bodily fluid at work.
• 2:09:00
  You can't fire me. I'm a woman, right, just whatever. And
• 2:09:05
  I would say that we should treat gun rights very consistently. It's illegal to
• 2:09:15
  give a gun. Just give a gun to a five year old, right,
• 2:09:20
  If somebody's not more accountable than a five year old as part of our
• 2:09:22
  society, and we won't give a real five year old a gun, why
• 2:09:26
  would why would we give that person a gun? Now? I don't want
• 2:09:31
  to say that we should have gendered rights, but if women can't straighten their
• 2:09:39
  shit out and take responsibility for appraising their actions before they engage in them,
• 2:09:48
  and for at least making sure that what they suspect is true or at least
• 2:09:54
  likely true, before they take an action that is damnage and permanent. Then
• 2:10:01
  maybe we should go back to coverture. And I wonder if over under coverture,
• 2:10:07
  women would have gun rights, because under coverture, women were presumed to
• 2:10:13
  be more childlike than adult like. Women didn't have responsibilities financially, they didn't
• 2:10:20
  have financial rights either. They didn't have a vote, um, you know,
• 2:10:24
  until they fought for it. And when I say fought, I mean
• 2:10:28
  a social fight, not a real fight. But uh, but they weren't
• 2:10:33
  responsible for any of the things that men who who physically fought for the vote
• 2:10:39
  the vote were responsible for. Right even today, only like fourteen percent of
• 2:10:45
  our military in the United States is female. With all the things that women
• 2:10:50
  are allowed into, with all of the the opening of everything and equality this
• 2:10:56
  and stability, that only fourteen percent of our military is female. So you
• 2:11:05
  know, I can't necessarily argue that we deserve equal rights when it comes to
• 2:11:15
  these things. We don't have equal accountability, we don't have equal responsibility.
• 2:11:22
  And we get excused when we do shit like this. So you know,
• 2:11:26
  if the system wanted to change my mind, if the people involved in the
• 2:11:28
  system wanted to change my mind, if they even knew I existed as more
• 2:11:31
  than a number that pays taxes, they would hold this woman fully accountable.
• 2:11:39
  They would give her the same sentence that she would get if she was a
• 2:11:41
  man. The news media would not sympathize with her, and the public would
• 2:11:50
  not sympathize with her. So we'll see what happens. Now. Are we
• 2:11:54
  going to see equality or are we going to see kind of centrism because you
• 2:11:58
  can't have both. I'm gonna let Mike j finish his thing and then move
• 2:12:03
  on to the last story. And the last thing I have to say is
• 2:12:07
  just you always have to be ex dreamely careful when you suggest that the government
• 2:12:15
  should either grant or deny a certain group of people. Right, just so
• 2:12:22
  very easy wants the power is lost for the new powers that be to turn
• 2:12:30
  around and say, well, you seem kind of dangerous. Those friends of
• 2:12:35
  yours are pretty dangerous. Those guys that think the same thing that you do
• 2:12:37
  are pretty dangerous. I don't think any of you guys need guns. Yeah,
• 2:12:43
  I agree. I think we'd be better off, you know, without
• 2:12:46
  you guys having guns. Yeah, haven't you seen what those people are saying
• 2:12:50
  online about you guys. I agree. It's to the point where we stop
• 2:12:54
  granting people immunity from from from from being treated as equally responsible for their actions
• 2:13:05
  because they're female. No, I agree. I mean it would get I
• 2:13:09
  could get into a much bigger thing. But we've gone super long sausage.
• 2:13:13
  So yeah, but I got one more story, and we'll try and just
• 2:13:16
  keep our responses to this brief. It is a bit of good news.
• 2:13:22
  So LATNDRA sounds like a character from Napoleon Dynamite. LTDRA Newton, Newtown or
• 2:13:28
  Newton, I'll just say. Newton started serving as Disney's Chief Diversity officer in
• 2:13:33
  twenty seventeen. Since then, Disney has been on a whirlwind of various diversity
• 2:13:39
  initiatives. According to an internal memo sent out by Disney HR, because of
• 2:13:43
  course it's HR, Newton decided to leave the Walt Disney Company to pursue other
• 2:13:48
  endeavors or ruin other companies. According to the memo, LTNDRA has led the
• 2:13:52
  company strategic diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, including partnering with stakeholders across the
• 2:13:58
  enterprise to amplify stories of the world by people around the world. She has
• 2:14:03
  been dedicated to ensuring every person sees themselves and their life experiences represented in a
• 2:14:09
  meaningful and authentic way. End quote. Just for real quick, stakeholders do
• 2:14:15
  not actually have capital invested in a company. There. That's not a stockholder
• 2:14:20
  or a shareholder. It's a stakeholder. Look it up. It's different.
• 2:14:22
  Disney has most recently released a live version adaptation of the cartoon feature The Little
• 2:14:28
  Mermaid. However, Disney faced controversy for race swapping aerial for actress Hallie Bailey.
• 2:14:35
  The movie has flopped in China No shit, a market. Hollywood has
• 2:14:39
  panted two because of its size. The movie only had thirteen thousand dollars of
• 2:14:43
  sales in China for prereleases. Holy shit, that's low. Another recent movie
• 2:14:48
  from Disney, Pixar, Elemental has only earned twenty nine point six million dollars
• 2:14:52
  over the three day weekend of June sixteenth, the worst weekend premiere for a
• 2:14:56
  Pixar movie since Toy Story in nineteen ninety five. Newton Co signed a May
• 2:15:01
  twenty twenty memo in the wake of George Floyd's death with the title The memo
• 2:15:07
  titled Resolve in the Time of Unrest. The memo said that quote, to
• 2:15:13
  use our compassion, our creative ideas, and our collective sense of humanity to
• 2:15:16
  ensure we are fostering our culture that acknowledges our people's feelings and their pain.
• 2:15:22
  We also realize that now, more than ever, is a time for us
• 2:15:24
  all to further strengthen our commitment to diversity and inclusion everywhere. And she has
• 2:15:31
  left the company to seek other opportunities. So anyway, a bit of a
• 2:15:39
  bit I guess you could say a bit of good news. I don't think
• 2:15:41
  the DEI stuff is working out with the people who actually have money invested,
• 2:15:46
  you know, like the shareholders and the stockholders as opposed to the stakeholders.
• 2:15:52
  Stakeholders are they have an emotional stake in the country and the company, but
• 2:15:56
  they're not actually invested or their shape. Their steak is not a part of
• 2:16:03
  you know, like the importance. So that's why things are going. That's
• 2:16:07
  part of what it's causing companies to go woke, is they have the stakeholder
• 2:16:11
  capitalism, which is what they call it, which is not capitalism because there
• 2:16:15
  is no actual exchange of goods and um, yeah, I mean it's just
• 2:16:20
  it's it's terrible. But she's no longer with Disney. That doesn't mean that
• 2:16:24
  they're suddenly cured. It just means that this person left to go do damage
• 2:16:31
  someplace else. So I don't know if anybody has any thoughts on that,
• 2:16:35
  Um no, nobody whoa It just it just takes us right back into the
• 2:16:41
  h You know, you hire the best. You don't hire based on based
• 2:16:46
  on die you don't hire based on feminism, you don't hire based on gynocentrism,
• 2:16:52
  and you don't hire based on somebody having as their goal to change the
• 2:16:58
  company based on all those things, because if you do, it might work
• 2:17:03
  work out well for you in the beginning with black Rock and those guys,
• 2:17:07
  but it's not going to work out well for you with the consumers, and
• 2:17:11
  it's not going to work out well in the end. Yep. Um,
• 2:17:18
  well, I guess we have kind of like this topic in general has been,
• 2:17:22
  you know, a well worn territory. But every one more thing I
• 2:17:26
  can say, and I'm going to go off about this all right, but
• 2:17:28
  it's just soon be short. My kids liked the Little Mermaid when they were
• 2:17:33
  little, and I saw some Little Mermaid television shows. There was a character
• 2:17:41
  that was a person of color, that had a disability that could have been
• 2:17:46
  expanded into a whole storyline for a great movie. If their goal in creating
• 2:17:52
  this movie had actually been altruistic and and interest in showcasing differences among people and
• 2:18:03
  celebrating differences and stuff like that, they could have celebrated this existing character.
• 2:18:07
  But that's not what it was about, and that's why it bombed. It
• 2:18:13
  bombed because instead of taking a character that really was an example of diversity in
• 2:18:20
  their their story system that wasn't exactly like cookie Cutter stamped Disney characters, they
• 2:18:31
  ignored that example and they had to race swap instead, and it pissed everybody
• 2:18:35
  off. So they got what they asked for. Yeah, I have seen
• 2:18:41
  the new Little Moment. In fact, the some of the top tip agents
• 2:18:46
  may have seen moment. Nolyson's take on the whole movie. We went over
• 2:18:54
  it, and less than one percent of what we were talking about was based
• 2:18:58
  on the race of real because it wasn't that important. A lot of it
• 2:19:03
  was based on um. They you'll remember the thing they did with the Lion
• 2:19:09
  King some years ago, and the thing they did with The Jungle Book seven
• 2:19:13
  years ago. What Disney normally does is give everything big eyes. Yeah,
• 2:19:20
  because because you need big eyes. Big big eyes are innocent. Big eyes
• 2:19:24
  are inviting. And this is why these sympathetic characters have have big old Disney
• 2:19:31
  eyes and and and the evil characters have tied their little piggy eyes. But
• 2:19:37
  what they attempted to do with the new Little Mermaid was take Sebastian and instead
• 2:19:43
  of giving him big Disney eyes, let's just make him a crap Yeah,
• 2:19:50
  made them look like photic but still in the Uncanny Valley the Yeah, he
• 2:19:54
  didn't have eyes, just has stocks on the top of his head. It
• 2:19:56
  was the same with Flounder. They didn't give him dip big Disney eyes.
• 2:20:01
  They just made him just a flounder. He barely existed in it at all.
• 2:20:05
  He took a backseat to the fucking seagull. The less said about the
• 2:20:09
  seagull, the better. But when, but when you try to see them
• 2:20:13
  doing the musical numbers like under the Sea and what have you with a crab
• 2:20:20
  that just looks like a crab with the fucking dead stalk eyes of a crab.
• 2:20:26
  You're just like, this is cursed. This is the exact definition of
• 2:20:31
  cursed. But you can't. You can't do this. This is the whole
• 2:20:35
  point of having, you know, animated two dimensional characters who are drawn two
• 2:20:41
  dimensionally with big old Disney eyes, when when you just try and do the
• 2:20:46
  same thing with ordinary sea creatures. And like, I'm not I'm not a
• 2:20:52
  fan of trying to anthropomorphize animals for the most part. If you can't do
• 2:20:58
  it with dogs and cats, then you can't fucking do it with crabs or
• 2:21:01
  sea creatures because sea creatures just they don't have eyes like we have them.
• 2:21:07
  They involved them, but they evolved them convergently, like they didn't even evolve
• 2:21:13
  the same eyes as we have them. Like, you can't turn sea creatures
• 2:21:20
  into anthropomorphic, adorable characters as they showed in this new fucking Little Mermaid.
• 2:21:28
  It's just craps. It's just sea creatures, like like fucking jellyfish. They
• 2:21:35
  don't even have eyeballs. They're trying to make humans out of creatures that never
• 2:21:41
  resemblable humans, and they're trying to take humans and well, I don't know
• 2:21:48
  why I can say about what they're trying to do with human characters without sounding
• 2:21:54
  racist, Like I said, that's that's the least of our problems. Like
• 2:22:00
  they you don't need. The whole point of Disney movies was to take them
• 2:22:05
  from the third dimension that was imagined in those who read the original books and
• 2:22:11
  to take them back into the second dimension where we where we can make these
• 2:22:18
  things peeling to children. Yeah, and it worked. This is this is
• 2:22:24
  how Disney developed his renaissance in the nineties. Yeah, because yeah, you
• 2:22:30
  can take anything as long as you give it nice big eyes, you can
• 2:22:33
  make children like it. But they're taking back everything they ever do, they
• 2:22:39
  ever did. Let's fuck the Disney eyes. Yeah, let's just well,
• 2:22:46
  like like lions beyond belong to us now, crabs belong to us now wherever
• 2:22:54
  the Disney classics, Like I don't know, Chinese people belong to us.
• 2:23:00
  Yeah, except when they don't watch our movies. Yeah, yeah, that's
• 2:23:03
  yeah. Who oh god should we talking about? No? No, no,
• 2:23:07
  no, no, it's way too Yeah. We gotta stop, We
• 2:23:11
  gotta stop. This is like a super long sausage. But all I'm gonna
• 2:23:13
  say is, you know, no submersibles went missing until these new Mermaids moved
• 2:23:20
  into the neighborhood. Oh well, Um, all I will say is I
• 2:23:24
  will talk about this a little bit more on another show. But I want
• 2:23:28
  to make the argument that even the original Little Mermaid was pretty woken feminist,
• 2:23:33
  because I think the Renaissance was trying to be more feminist and a lot of
• 2:23:37
  people acknowledge it as such. So everything from The Little Mermaid, Beauty and
• 2:23:41
  The Bees, pocahonas all that Ryladden, Um, those are those are still
• 2:23:46
  good movies, but they were more feminist movies than the originals, and like
• 2:23:50
  Sleeping Beauty and Snow White, and I'm gonna make the case for why the
• 2:23:54
  originals are still the best. But anyway, we will back to if I
• 2:24:01
  get one last word on this. Yeah, I always go into a cycle
• 2:24:05
  when I think of these things, when I think you're like the race swapping,
• 2:24:07
  and I think, like, why can't they just go back to other
• 2:24:09
  source material? Like who owns the rights to static shock? These days?
• 2:24:13
  Man, if anything should make a fucking come back. And then I stopped
• 2:24:18
  shut of that and go, no, no, they'd ruin it, Yeah
• 2:24:22
  they ahou No, he'd probably be not binary or something exactly. It's going
• 2:24:30
  to need a massive shift. One monkey is not going to stop this show.
• 2:24:35
  No no, or we need fresh blood. Yeah, we need a
• 2:24:39
  radical shift. Yeah, it's it's just it's gonna have to be hammered home
• 2:24:45
  that the ship doesn't work before they go back and resurrect anything old. And
• 2:24:50
  honestly, it's probably it's probably good they didn't, you know, they didn't
• 2:24:58
  didn't expand that character because somebody in the future can now. Yeah, maybe
• 2:25:03
  the the corporate environment and the corporate attitude is going to have to change.
• 2:25:09
  Yeah, and that's that's a hard one to achieve. All right, So
• 2:25:16
  we're gonna wrap it up. Marvel does not own sex Shock. That's a
• 2:25:20
  DC product. It's a Warner Brothers product, So you know, Okay,
• 2:25:24
  so we're gonna wrap it up here. Um. I want to thank you
• 2:25:26
  guys for coming on. I want to thank Jojo for staying in one place.
• 2:25:31
  Hey, Jojo, We're almost done. Okay, buddy, it's gonna
• 2:25:33
  let's get the last a few good boys in the chat. Jojo, some
• 2:25:39
  virtual paths could I know about? He's super comfortable hopefully. Yeah. Let
• 2:25:46
  let us own the comments. What you think about JoJo's appearance. Um,
• 2:25:48
  because if I can, anytime that Lindsay's working, I will bring Jojo on
• 2:25:54
  because if Lindsay's home, then he's gonna want to hang around with her.
• 2:25:56
  Or so if you can't think of anything to calment, just calm Joe.
• 2:26:00
  Joe's a good boy. Yeah, just let us know he's a good boy.
• 2:26:03
  All right. I do have some super chats and then we're gonna wrap
• 2:26:07
  it up. So Richard Bierre gives us a dollar ninety nine and says,
• 2:26:09
  this sounds like that TikTok mom if she were armed. Talking about the previous
• 2:26:13
  story, thank you for that. Alex LGAs gives us five dollars and says,
• 2:26:20
  did you hear about the female police officer attacking a male domestic violence victim
• 2:26:24
  when the woman had a knife to his back. I'll have to look it
• 2:26:28
  up. I did not. That would have made for a good story.
• 2:26:31
  But like this show's gone for ye drop us an. It is not surprising
• 2:26:35
  if you look at the training that they get, they can consider him to
• 2:26:41
  be the threat even if she's the most violent. All they have to do
• 2:26:46
  is rationalized, well, she's smaller than he is. HM, that's it
• 2:26:52
  all right. So we're gonna head into the Patron show now, so I
