• 0:36
  Civil war what is going
• 0:39
  to happen in our upcoming days are we on the brink of something big happening
• 0:43
  it would certainly seem that it would certainly seem that i don't know if you
• 0:48
  all have catched the new civil war movie you should check it out i actually
• 0:53
  saw it last weekend it came out This is going to be the second week and it's out.
• 0:56
  That whole premise, that idea of we are on the precipice of a civil war breaking out.
• 1:02
  When you actually try to visualize what would a civil war in today's age look
• 1:06
  like? That movie can give you kind of a picture of it, what it could look like, you know?
• 1:11
  So, I mean, everybody's always talking about doomsday. Things happen all around
• 1:15
  the world and it certainly seems like that.
• 1:17
  Iran seriously getting into the war with Israel. I mean, they've always been
• 1:22
  on the background funding things and pushing things and sending terrorists and
• 1:26
  just funding other countries to send them in.
• 1:27
  Iran are the ones that gave the military arsenal to Hamas to go in on October
• 1:33
  7th of last year to strike Israel.
• 1:36
  But now that they are up front attacking Israel and what is happening,
• 1:40
  things are escalating quickly.
• 1:42
  Things are always hot and crazy in the Middle East, especially surrounding Israel.
• 1:46
  But what is happening now is insane. insane iran
• 1:49
  actually stepping forward and attacking israel front
• 1:53
  and center and now israel pushing back and fighting back
• 1:55
  things are escalating and heating up quickly
• 1:58
  and now the united states we're kind of just
• 2:01
  in a like in a holding position and just like we're funding things from both
• 2:06
  sides we're giving money to both sides i i know there is reasons to go into
• 2:10
  the decision making and we have and we give all these billions of dollars to
• 2:14
  countries all around the world and then it's a way that we can kind of take
• 2:17
  money back if we don't want to give it to them.
• 2:19
  We want to give someone something so that you have some leverage on them. But I mean...
• 2:25
  Some of the decision-making that's happening at the top is crazy.
• 2:28
  And I think it's just a lot of it is owed by people that just want to be in power.
• 2:32
  That's the main thing. People want to be in power and people want to make money.
• 2:35
  Ultimately, at the end of the day, that is the nature of humanity.
• 2:39
  People want to be in power, want to make money. And you show your true colors
• 2:42
  when you are in power, who you really are when you're in power.
• 2:45
  But it seems that at the top, there is a lot of people that just want to exude
• 2:50
  power over others and just want to have that status.
• 2:53
  And it's not, I was just actually yesterday talking with people and we were
• 2:57
  discussing that the worst people get put in the, to the top positions in our
• 3:02
  country, the worst types of people getting put in the top positions.
• 3:05
  And it's just because it's just that narcissistic aspect of life that you just
• 3:09
  want everything about you. And you just want to get there for that purpose.
• 3:13
  You don't want to get there to do good or to serve others or to make a difference in a good way.
• 3:17
  But all you want to do is make money and you want to have power over people.
• 3:20
  People so that is that is the nature of the human the human mind everything is getting so.
• 3:28
  Polarizing and i i don't know if it's always been like this to me it has not
• 3:33
  you know to me there has been a lot more just leeway go along to get along you
• 3:38
  know just and that was what the name of the game was you just you everybody
• 3:42
  wasn't so up at each other's necks right now it's just like It's just crazy,
• 3:47
  and I think it's only going to get worse. Everything is just escalating.
• 3:51
  And the reason that is, it's election year. Donald Trump is such a polarizing figure.
• 3:58
  And when I think of Joe Biden, whenever he stepped into office and whatever
• 4:03
  that happened, I had high hopes for him.
• 4:05
  I actually really believed I wanted to give him a chance.
• 4:09
  Because his message, his inaugural or whatever it is, that one on whenever he's
• 4:14
  sworn in and everything like that. And that message that he gave, I thought it was great.
• 4:18
  I thought it was, it was all about unity, bringing everyone together.
• 4:20
  And it is completely the opposite of what has happened today.
• 4:25
  It's like, it's gotten freaking mad, mad crazy right now. You know?
• 4:29
  I mean, it's just, everything is up against everyone.
• 4:32
  Everyone is just hating each other, you know? And just, I think in the media,
• 4:37
  instant media on your phone, everything just, I mean.
• 4:41
  I mean, I just think about 20 years ago and I would have anything coming across
• 4:45
  my screen, whatever would have grabbed my attention so much.
• 4:48
  There is so many. If you just scroll through Twitter or X right now,
• 4:53
  I mean, I get nauseated just looking at it.
• 4:56
  I mean, there's I mean, the most outlandish, crazy things will come across your
• 5:00
  screen and it's just put right in frickin front of your eyes.
• 5:03
  And it's like, I can't even take it. You know, there's people getting just their
• 5:07
  frickin heads bashed in.
• 5:08
  It's people just like just doing stupid stuff
• 5:12
  and i i mean i would have thought like because
• 5:15
  i mean growing up if you grew up before internet and
• 5:18
  now you have internet and now it's like increasing exponentially now
• 5:22
  it's like the things that come across your screen we
• 5:25
  are so desensitized and are so
• 5:28
  stimulated everything that comes across our our
• 5:31
  eyes it's just it's freaking madness kindness
• 5:34
  you know so i mean the things that i i thought would like
• 5:37
  make make us interesting and perk our interest man i
• 5:40
  i scroll past that stuff you know i can't even take it you know
• 5:43
  i mean there's i there's like like thousands of things you
• 5:46
  go across each day if you're on twitter or any of the social media platforms
• 5:49
  that you use facebook is a little more peaceful to me i guess it's all about
• 5:54
  who who you are and who you have who you're friends with and who you're subscribed
• 5:58
  to and who you're following and all that kind of stuff facebook has always seemed
• 6:02
  more of a peaceful atmosphere.
• 6:04
  And maybe it's because I don't use Facebook that much. Maybe it's because I'm
• 6:07
  more on Twitter. I don't know.
• 6:09
  And I've always took it as Facebook is the place you go to for friends and family,
• 6:14
  you know, and that's kind of what it is.
• 6:15
  And that's why doing and doing all this and kind of rolling all this out.
• 6:18
  I have I was always the most hesitant about posting things on Facebook,
• 6:23
  because that is actually the people I actually know that see that,
• 6:27
  you know, and I I don't even know how much they see of it because I don't see
• 6:30
  like a 10th of the people I'm friends and, you know, friends with on Facebook, uh.
• 6:35
  For me, and I don't know about you, Twitter was always a place to go to where
• 6:39
  it felt more like I could kind of be at arm's length.
• 6:43
  It was just news. It was just famous people and all that kind of stuff.
• 6:46
  And it was more of a place that I could go to and feel comfortable with.
• 6:50
  I always felt weird about just seeing into other people's lives that I personally know.
• 6:55
  And so, I mean, that's why Facebook was that more of like in real life who I
• 7:00
  know. I don't know about what is it it like for you?
• 7:02
  I don't, I mean, do you follow people that you know on, on Twitter or are you
• 7:06
  more just like, do you keep that to Facebook or Instagram, Instagram and Facebook?
• 7:10
  They go hand in hand. They're kind of together.
• 7:12
  But on Instagram, I was a more so of famous people and news and all that kind of stuff.
• 7:17
  I am a news. I am a news person. I, the news and excites me,
• 7:21
  but I mean, it's such a change.
• 7:22
  You know, when you're a kid, news is the most, most boring thing in the world.
• 7:26
  But when you get to be a grown adult, a lot of times it's like news just turns
• 7:31
  you off, but news can actually can just like jolt your system.
• 7:34
  It can give you an idea. It's like, it's interesting.
• 7:36
  I just remember growing up and seeing my dad every morning and seeing him reading the newspaper.
• 7:41
  And I, and now it's like in him wanting to turn on the news.
• 7:44
  I was just like, oh my gosh.
• 7:45
  And now I am that person where I want to read the newspaper and I want to turn
• 7:49
  on the news. And my kids are just the same way I was.
• 7:52
  Is it an age thing that when you get old that you want to hear about news and everything?
• 7:56
  So what about you? Do you like hearing about news? Do you like sports?
• 8:01
  What do you like? What do you like? You know what you like, you know?
• 8:05
  Put it in the comments what you like, you know? I'm dead serious about that.
• 8:09
  Put it in the comments what you like and what you like to hear about, you know?
• 8:11
  I want to know the people that are listening to this and who are going to be
• 8:15
  hearing me, who I'm going to grow that relationship with, you know?
• 8:19
  Put it in the comments, you know?
• 8:20
  And I haven't really answered back to anything on the comments that have been
• 8:24
  made on my videos, but I don't even know if that's the best way to go about it.
• 8:28
  I I don't even know if you should do that really, or if you should just kind
• 8:31
  of sit back and watch, you know?
• 8:32
  I am still learning a lot of this stuff and trying to gather steam and just
• 8:37
  kind of get things rolling.
• 8:38
  Civil war is, I mean, I don't even think it's going to be like physical as much right now.
• 8:43
  A lot of it is just kind of a battle of ideology and political,
• 8:46
  uh, just political smash and grab, you know, you just kind of,
• 8:50
  it's just like against each other and just words and talk and philosophy and everything like that.
• 8:54
  But I mean, things are just kind of heating up like where it's like physically
• 8:57
  and with the things at our border and the things that are just happening down
• 9:02
  there. And it's just insane.
• 9:05
  And just think everything escalating all over this world.
• 9:08
  And especially with Iran in Israel and what is happening there. It's, it's nuts, man.
• 9:14
  So I, I mean, everybody get ready, get gear up.
• 9:19
  I wanted to just kind of just spark your interest with civil war.
• 9:22
  If you, especially since that new movie is out, you should go check it out,
• 9:24
  go check it out. Just see what you think.
• 9:26
  Tell me what you think. You know, I didn't really want, I thought about giving
• 9:29
  kind of like my opinion of it and give a kind of a review, but maybe someday
• 9:33
  I'll kind of start doing that with, with movies and everything like that.
• 9:36
  Touch on that. Cause I love movies.
• 9:37
  Do you love movies? I mean, I absolutely love movies.
• 9:42
  I love cinema. I love theater.
• 9:44
  I love like, I love acting and I love just watching that and improv and I'm
• 9:48
  all about that, you know, comedy and everything like that.
• 9:51
  I love that kind of stuff, you know? And it's just like, and I,
• 9:54
  I'm just going to put this out there about movies that this aspect of it.
• 9:57
  Me and my wife you know we got really critical
• 10:01
  of movies especially probably during covid when you're watching a lot
• 10:03
  of movies during covid and it was like i mean
• 10:06
  when you see a bunch of movies and you instantly know
• 10:09
  is this a low budget film and don't
• 10:12
  get me wrong low budget films they can be awesome but i mean we had that just
• 10:16
  where we would look at each other and it's just like we would say this is an
• 10:20
  lb you know it's a low budget film you know the movie civil war i think It looks
• 10:25
  like it had a pretty good budget with the things that happened in it.
• 10:28
  It looks like it had a pretty good budget.
• 10:30
  So tell me what you think about that movie.
• 10:34
  As things get kind of heated and things are going to heat up,
• 10:38
  I just have a feeling. It just feels like this year with election year, what's happening.
• 10:42
  I'm just going to put this out there right now. I wouldn't be surprised if the
• 10:45
  election this year does not happen just because of the administration that is
• 10:49
  in power, what they would do and what they would allow to happen so that they
• 10:53
  could retain power and that they would at all costs keep their power.
• 10:57
  So what do you all think? You know, are you, are you on the left side?
• 11:01
  Are you on the right side? Are you right down the middle? Are you sway one way or the other?
• 11:04
  What are, what is your political leanings? You know, and as we get more into
• 11:08
  these videos, you're going to kind of get a bit more of an understanding of what I am.
• 11:11
  I'm going to be upfront and honest. I'm going to just say it like it is.
• 11:13
  You know, I wouldn't say I subscribe hardcore one way or to the left or the right.
• 11:18
  I, you know, I, I, I take from both positions.
• 11:21
  I, I, I, I'm not hardcore where I have to be one way or the other lockstep one way or the other.
• 11:27
  I'm like going to take the good from one side and the good from the other.
• 11:30
  And I'm just going to try to take all of that. and I'm not going to hate anyone
• 11:34
  that does not agree with me and everything I believe.
• 11:38
  I've never understood that, why people get so upset at others about having a
• 11:44
  different belief political and why it's so heated.
• 11:47
  I mean, years ago, I can remember when I started actually listening to the news
• 11:51
  and getting into politics.
• 11:52
  And before that, I remember sending my uncle a card and gave him kind of a card
• 11:57
  as just a jab about a political, what I thought his political leanings were.
• 12:03
  And I didn't understand how heated politics was.
• 12:06
  I just, in ignorance, I gave him the card and I just thought it was just funny, you know?
• 12:11
  But it's like, now looking back like that, it can raise people's blood pressure
• 12:15
  when they hear about politics, when they hear about the other side,
• 12:18
  because everyone is just so up in arms and just, I mean, just...
• 12:22
  I don't know. And I wish it wasn't like that. I wish we could just like kind
• 12:25
  of share. What do you think? And we didn't have to, I wish there were not Democrats and Republicans.
• 12:31
  I wish the party lines were completely brought down and it wasn't about that
• 12:34
  because then everybody just gets on a team.
• 12:37
  We are one team, the United States of America. We are one team.
• 12:41
  Everything is just so tribal. And so like, you're either on my side or you're against.
• 12:45
  And I, if you're on the other side, everything you do, I hate.
• 12:48
  And if you're on my side, everything you do, I love, you know,
• 12:50
  it's like, why does it does does not need to be like that.
• 12:53
  It does not need to be like that. It does not need to be like that.
• 12:57
  You know, just, I mean, everybody just share what you think and what you believe.
• 13:01
  And I mean, let's go along to get along. Let's, let's be at peace. Let's come together.
• 13:05
  Let's be that melting pot. You know, that, that American dream that we can all
• 13:09
  come together. We are all on the same side. We are all on the same side.
• 13:13
  Civil war does not need to happen. Civil war does not need to happen.
• 13:16
  So if you're listening to this, I, I hope you're taking what I'm saying and
• 13:21
  I hope you, I hope you receive it and I hope you don't just completely hate
• 13:25
  it. Cause I'm going to, I'm going to say what I freaking think.
• 13:28
  I'm going to say what I think, I think, and I want you to share back what you
• 13:31
  think, you know, tell me, Hey, you know, that was kind of stupid.

• 13:50
  I hope he don't say anything stupid that I don't like. You know,
• 13:53
  and it's like, it's just, man, it's like, everybody, cool yourself. Chill.
