Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, good morning, good evening, good afternoon, wherever you
- 0:02Speaker 1: may be. My name is Brian with Allison, and this
- 0:05Speaker 1: is maintaining frame. Calling out theft is patriarchal oppression. How
- 0:09Speaker 1: Ice protests turned policing into fascism. Where we are going
- 0:14Speaker 1: to be talking about the I guess the ongoing developments
- 0:19Speaker 1: in Minnesota which don't show any signs of slowing down,
- 0:24Speaker 1: and some of like the root of this, like where this,
- 0:29Speaker 1: where is this coming from?
- 0:31Speaker 2: Things like that of that name, the men's rights analysis.
- 0:35Speaker 3: Huh, the men's rights analysis of where this is coming from?
- 0:39Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, yes, so yeah.
- 0:43Speaker 1: So basically, pull up a seat, a chair, a cigar,
- 0:46Speaker 1: and a martini and join us, or if you prefer,
- 0:50Speaker 1: I'm drinking the sugar free beverage.
- 0:54Speaker 3: I'm having some chai tea. So I guess I'm I'm
- 0:57Speaker 3: some kind of hipster. I think, is that what it?
- 1:00Speaker 3: Or is chi te.
- 1:01Speaker 1: Except the hipsters are still drinking chai. That's kind of mainstream.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Now oh yeah, oh.
- 1:06Speaker 3: Okay, you can get it. It's probably I'd have to
- 1:08Speaker 3: have a maca, a maca latte that would make me
- 1:11Speaker 3: hipster or hipster.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe a macha.
- 1:14Speaker 1: But I think even those probably you have to have
- 1:16Speaker 1: yerba mate, that's what you think.
- 1:18Speaker 2: That's what that's the last new thing, that's the well,
- 1:21Speaker 2: it's the last.
- 1:22Speaker 1: Thing that has been completely corporate tized and taken over
- 1:26Speaker 1: by the man.
- 1:27Speaker 3: So yeah, okay, yeah, I'm pretty sure there's big yurba
- 1:31Speaker 3: mate though. Anyway, so, if at any point throughout the
- 1:36Speaker 3: show you want to send us a message, the very
- 1:38Speaker 3: best way to do that is that Feedbadger dot com
- 1:41Speaker 3: slash just the tip. You get the benefit of sending
- 1:44Speaker 3: your message not through YouTube's comment labyrinth of fun, and
- 1:49Speaker 3: we get the full benefit of whatever funds you send.
- 1:52Speaker 3: And so it's a win win, not so much a
- 1:55Speaker 3: win for YouTube, but you know who's counting. And uh so,
- 1:58Speaker 3: once again that's feed the Badger slash just the Tip.
- 2:01Speaker 3: And we do have our monthly fundraiser live now, so
- 2:04Speaker 3: if you would like to help out there, that is
- 2:06Speaker 3: feed Thebadger dot com slash support and also, you know,
- 2:11Speaker 3: I'll give you more options, like there's stuff in the
- 2:13Speaker 3: low bar two you know, links to our community, links
- 2:17Speaker 3: to subscribing that kind of thing. So check those out
- 2:20Speaker 3: if you want to support us, because we definitely come
- 2:22Speaker 3: at these these situations from a very different angle. So
- 2:28Speaker 3: do you want me to just read like an overview
- 2:30Speaker 3: of what's going on, or did you, Brian, or did
- 2:34Speaker 3: you have something prepared?
- 2:36Speaker 4: Well?
- 2:36Speaker 1: I mean I think it's uh, I think that you
- 2:40Speaker 1: can do it. I mean, okay, sure, that's pretty straightforward.
- 2:43Speaker 3: So yeah, okay, So the ICE conflict is still alive
- 2:46Speaker 3: and volatile. Protests in Minnesota and other cities have pushed
- 2:50Speaker 3: from street clashes into institutions like churches. An activists now
- 2:56Speaker 3: are floating mass disruption tactics rather than winding down. So
- 3:00Speaker 3: the situation. Two ICE shootings Renee Good and Minneapolis and
- 3:05Speaker 3: another in Portland triggered large ICE out for Good protests
- 3:09Speaker 3: and counter protests across multiple US city cities, and also
- 3:14Speaker 3: lots and lots and lots of argument over who was
- 3:17Speaker 3: in the wrong. Minneapolis Saint Paul remains the flashpoint, with
- 3:22Speaker 3: repeated clashes between anti ICE demonstrators, federal agents and local
- 3:27Speaker 3: police near hotels, federal buildings, and residential neighborhoods. Federal security
- 3:32Speaker 3: has expanded. DOJ and FBI are now probing both ICE's
- 3:37Speaker 3: use of force and certain protest actions, example the church disruption.
- 3:42Speaker 3: Pulling this out of purely local politics and into national territory. Okay,
- 3:47Speaker 3: So the latest planned disruptions on the anti ICE side
- 3:50Speaker 3: are church service disruptions. In Saint Paul, Minneapolis, protesters entered
- 3:55Speaker 3: a church service link to an ICE adjacent prey pastor
- 3:59Speaker 3: was that actually confirmed? I don't even know? Chanting and affronting? Yeah,
- 4:05Speaker 3: like is that is? That was just something?
- 4:08Speaker 2: I mean, I don't The thing is, how do you
- 4:10Speaker 2: confirm it? What? What does it mean to be? And
- 4:14Speaker 2: what does that mean that you.
- 4:16Speaker 3: Believe the law, that you believe that a country has the.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Right, that a country is sovereign and citizenship.
- 4:27Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I guess that. Uh, the dog has opened.
- 4:34Speaker 3: The DOJ has opened a civil rights investigation into whether
- 4:38Speaker 3: worshippers' rights were violated. Continuing street protests the federal and
- 4:44Speaker 3: hotel sites. Demonstrators are still being held outside federal buildings,
- 4:48Speaker 3: ICE offices and hotels believed to be housing agents, with
- 4:52Speaker 3: authorities describing sporadic clashes, tents, standoffs, rather than a return
- 4:57Speaker 3: to normal talk of a mass no work, no school,
- 5:00Speaker 3: no stopping action. Labor aligned organizers in Minnesota are openly
- 5:05Speaker 3: discussing a January twenty third shutdown day tied to ICE
- 5:09Speaker 3: and the shootings framed is a mass strike or boycott,
- 5:12Speaker 3: even if it only partially materializes, it signals escaling, escalating planning, escalation, planning,
- 5:18Speaker 3: Well you know what I mean, at least that's not
- 5:22Speaker 3: actually making things more dangerous on the streets. National solidarity
- 5:28Speaker 3: protests and vigils. Protests and vigils connected to the Minneapolis
- 5:32Speaker 3: and Portland shootings. I thought the Portland shooting, the guy
- 5:35Speaker 3: was shot in the leg and survived. Is there not
- 5:39Speaker 3: that need of vigil But anyway, sorry, maybe.
- 5:42Speaker 2: I'm just to die. And he's also not a person.
- 5:44Speaker 3: So uh well, I mean no, it wasn't the it
- 5:49Speaker 3: wasn't the Ice, the ICE agent.
- 5:53Speaker 1: But of course, yeah, it's probably because he didn't die.
- 5:56Speaker 1: But I think also because it's not politically valuable, so
- 6:03Speaker 1: like they don't they can't use it. It's you know,
- 6:05Speaker 1: it's like what why is it there?
- 6:09Speaker 2: This whole what's her name again? Good? Good good?
- 6:16Speaker 1: They pounced on it primarily, but she was a queer woman,
- 6:21Speaker 1: so if she wasn't a woman there, it wouldn't have
- 6:24Speaker 1: been as handy. There are probably a lot of injuries,
- 6:28Speaker 1: uh that are, and probably some serious ones on both sides.
- 6:32Speaker 2: But because most of the people involved.
- 6:34Speaker 1: In our men are men, it doesn't it doesn't doesn't
- 6:38Speaker 1: have any like gravitas. It's not emotionally useful, so they
- 6:42Speaker 1: don't they ignore it. So yeah, that's probably why that
- 6:44Speaker 1: guy who got shot on the.
- 6:45Speaker 2: Leg, they were like whatever, it's just a dude.
- 6:47Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean they're there, they looks like they're
- 6:50Speaker 3: doing vigils. They're probably folding it into the Renee Goods
- 6:54Speaker 3: situation as well. But yeah, that's that generally, that's true.
- 6:58Speaker 3: If if it had been an ICE off who had died,
- 7:01Speaker 3: nobody would care. It would be folded into workplace death
- 7:04Speaker 3: statistics that feminists try to hide anyway. So no harm,
- 7:09Speaker 3: no foul, apparently. So protests and visuals connected to the
- 7:13Speaker 3: Minneapolis and Portland shootings are planned under way in other
- 7:16Speaker 3: major cities, including Los Angeles, Portland, and East Coast. Hubs
- 7:20Speaker 3: often clustered around ICE officials or federal courts. Okay, so
- 7:24Speaker 3: we have some clips that I wanted to go through
- 7:27Speaker 3: today about you know, just what's going on, what ICE
- 7:31Speaker 3: is up to, and do you wanna like there was
- 7:34Speaker 3: there were three that I was looking at, but there
- 7:37Speaker 3: are there's a couple of compilations that are interesting, but
- 7:40Speaker 3: two that I think are really critical, and one is
- 7:44Speaker 3: and correct me if I'm wrong. I'm going to summarize
- 7:46Speaker 3: it just off the top of my head. One is
- 7:49Speaker 3: a situation where five men were having a kind of
- 7:54Speaker 3: like an informal get together or meeting, and they were
- 7:57Speaker 3: all part of the software industry, and protesters are ICE
- 8:02Speaker 3: anti anti ICE. Protesters identified these men as potential ICE
- 8:07Speaker 3: agents and then started to surround the coffee shop where
- 8:10Speaker 3: they were having a meeting. And one of the interesting
- 8:13Speaker 3: aspects of this, which we will go through, is that
- 8:16Speaker 3: one of these men apparently was himself anti ICE, and
- 8:22Speaker 3: as a result of this situation, he has been reconsidering
- 8:27Speaker 3: his position. So do we do you want to pull
- 8:30Speaker 3: that one?
- 8:31Speaker 1: This clip here put up by clown World on x yes,
- 8:35Speaker 1: and I won't read the well, I'll read the description
- 8:39Speaker 1: man in Minneapolis being confronted and labeled a Nazi.
- 8:42Speaker 3: Over a No, No, that's not the right one.
- 8:44Speaker 2: That's a different one.
- 8:45Speaker 3: This is the second one, the first one.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Where's the okay you gotta which link is the one
- 8:51Speaker 2: we are our?
- 8:53Speaker 3: The DM I share with Brian is so freaking clogged
- 8:57Speaker 3: with stuff that sometimes it can be very difficult to here.
- 9:02Speaker 3: Here you go, this will give you this will give
- 9:06Speaker 3: you a direct link to the message, so you can
- 9:08Speaker 3: load that up. So apologies, guys, it's just a yeah,
- 9:15Speaker 3: there's a lot of information, respectively sifting through. So go ahead,
- 9:19Speaker 3: go ahead and put that up.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna put it up here, all right. So
- 9:24Speaker 2: this is it Alpha news.
- 9:26Speaker 1: Tech workers say that we're mistaken for ice agents accosted
- 9:29Speaker 1: by anti ice mob.
- 9:31Speaker 3: Uh.
- 9:32Speaker 1: So let's take a look at this. I will full
- 9:37Speaker 1: screen it too. Okay, there's no sound. Hold on, I
- 9:42Speaker 1: gotta do this. I gotta do this thing where I
- 9:44Speaker 1: refresh it, stop sharing and reshare.
- 9:48Speaker 2: So just give me a second. I apologize.
- 9:55Speaker 1: Mm okay, shoot hold on this over again just a second.
- 10:07Speaker 2: I apologize.
- 10:08Speaker 1: Okay, it's just like the video Ninja is great, but
- 10:12Speaker 1: it does have this thing where if you put up
- 10:15Speaker 1: a web page and you it's idle for too long,
- 10:17Speaker 1: and well, it will stop sharing the audio for that,
- 10:19Speaker 1: so you have to like do it over again.
- 10:22Speaker 2: But it doesn't take it doesn't take a second.
- 10:24Speaker 1: All right, I mean this is this's gotta be the
- 10:33Speaker 1: funniest thing.
- 10:35Speaker 5: You feel, so clear, we do a custers.
- 11:00Speaker 3: It's a bit of an echo. There's a bit of
- 11:02Speaker 3: an echo going on.
- 11:03Speaker 2: Are you getting an echo?
- 11:04Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm getting it, a bit of an echo.
- 11:06Speaker 3: But I just wanted to also point out what he said,
- 11:08Speaker 3: we do apps these are. Okay, you want to know
- 11:14Speaker 3: what demographic these guys are, I'll give you. Why don't
- 11:19Speaker 3: you guess, Brian? What demographic these They are?
- 11:22Speaker 2: Straight white men? Allison?
- 11:24Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, well they might not be straight white men.
- 11:26Speaker 3: You never know.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Well, they're they're they're at least coded straight white men.
- 11:32Speaker 3: Well, yes, of course, because gay men are the straight
- 11:34Speaker 3: men of gay people.
- 11:37Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean, like, let's just be real, like,
- 11:39Speaker 2: odds are they're straight?
- 11:40Speaker 5: Like that?
- 11:41Speaker 1: Odds three more straight dudes than not straight dudes, like
- 11:44Speaker 1: they're But the point is is that in the eyes
- 11:47Speaker 1: of these protesters, they see some white guys hanging out,
- 11:52Speaker 1: and it immediately puts them in a category.
- 11:54Speaker 2: Right according to the progressive stat.
- 11:57Speaker 1: Male white suspicion, you know, probably straight unless they're like,
- 12:00Speaker 1: unless they're wearing feather boas and like booty shorts and
- 12:04Speaker 1: they're singing girl and wearing eyeliner or something, they're just
- 12:07Speaker 1: gonna call them straight because you have to be like,
- 12:09Speaker 1: you can't just be gay, you have to be out
- 12:12Speaker 1: all the way, you know. So yeah, otherwise you're just
- 12:17Speaker 1: another straight guy to them.
- 12:19Speaker 3: Yeah, but you're absolutely right. So this is this is
- 12:22Speaker 3: just five guys at a coffee shop at a table.
- 12:28Speaker 3: So it's an unsanctioned gathering of white men, essentially, an
- 12:33Speaker 3: unsanctioned gathering of white men, and it's immediately suspect as
- 12:37Speaker 3: apparently a potential ice gang in they these individuals territory,
- 12:45Speaker 3: so they have to respond like a out of control
- 12:48Speaker 3: immune system to this. This this irritant, and this isn't
- 12:52Speaker 3: this isn't the only one. But let's let's finish this off.
- 12:55Speaker 2: Yep, do you want to look like a.
- 13:09Speaker 3: Totally yes, you look like an ice agent suit, dude,
- 13:14Speaker 3: because you are probably a white man between the ages
- 13:18Speaker 3: of eighteen and fifty four, which is which is which
- 13:24Speaker 3: is ice coated. Now, let's face it, a white man
- 13:29Speaker 3: between the ages of like, well, maybe maybe twenty five
- 13:32Speaker 3: and forty five. If you're a white man between the
- 13:35Speaker 3: ages of twenty five and forty five, it doesn't matter
- 13:37Speaker 3: what you're wearing, or what you're doing, or if you're
- 13:42Speaker 3: drinking YOU'REBA mate, you are now considered a suspect ICE agent.
- 13:47Speaker 3: I wonder why, I wonder how this is all collapsed
- 13:50Speaker 3: into that? Hey, how did how did that all collapse
- 13:54Speaker 3: down into every every one of those guys in my comments,
- 13:58Speaker 3: although I think errors might be a woman, every one
- 14:00Speaker 3: of those guys in my comments, all of you arguing
- 14:04Speaker 3: that ice you know, they deserve it or whatever else, Well,
- 14:08Speaker 3: you're basically arguing that you should be under suspicion at
- 14:13Speaker 3: this point that if you're just a white dude between
- 14:17Speaker 3: the ages of twenty five and fifty or forty five,
- 14:21Speaker 3: that you should be under suspicion that you should be
- 14:25Speaker 3: targeted because you are now a well you're ICE adjacent.
- 14:31Speaker 3: Let's face it, right, Brian, You're part of the white patriarchy,
- 14:35Speaker 3: so you're ICE adjacent. You can do performative virtue all
- 14:40Speaker 3: you like. But we all know what demographic is most
- 14:44Speaker 3: likely to be racist, don't we. We all know what
- 14:47Speaker 3: demographic is most likely to be anti anti immigration, don't we.
- 14:52Speaker 3: So you can be as much of an ally as
- 14:54Speaker 3: you want and it won't defend you from being targeted
- 14:57Speaker 3: in the moment. And that's what this is show. Let's
- 15:01Speaker 3: finish it off.
- 15:04Speaker 2: This is what.
- 15:07Speaker 5: It's not. There's no relationship where you guys are at
- 15:17Speaker 5: okay the way.
- 15:22Speaker 3: I'm just trying to enjoy while you're eating your lunch
- 15:28Speaker 3: while white male and unaffiliated. I mean, at this point,
- 15:32Speaker 3: if you're white male and unaffiliated, your white your ICE adjacent.
- 15:37Speaker 3: People think that I'm like being I'm exaggerating. But how
- 15:41Speaker 3: did this happen? How did an anti ICE mob descend
- 15:47Speaker 3: on I don't know if it was a coffee shop
- 15:49Speaker 3: or a lunch place, just because there was a group
- 15:52Speaker 3: of five men eating at a table who happened to
- 15:54Speaker 3: be white men. How did that happen? How did the
- 15:58Speaker 3: threat detection decide that this was a problem?
- 16:03Speaker 2: Right?
- 16:03Speaker 3: What were they queuing too? What were they being triggered by?
- 16:07Speaker 3: Do you think about that? Okay, so you any thoughts
- 16:14Speaker 3: Brian before we read.
- 16:15Speaker 1: The well, I mean, I will say the only thing
- 16:18Speaker 1: I'll say is that this is not new.
- 16:19Speaker 2: This is the progressive stack in action.
- 16:22Speaker 1: And the problem with these these men was even though
- 16:25Speaker 1: they weren't Ice, and even though they were not I
- 16:28Speaker 1: don't even think they were anti Ice because the guy
- 16:30Speaker 1: technically said I don't support them, which means, you know,
- 16:33Speaker 1: maybe he's sort of like, you know, against it, but
- 16:35Speaker 1: not he doesn't feel strongly enough to go out in
- 16:38Speaker 1: the streets and like you know, protests or whatever, probably
- 16:42Speaker 1: because he has a job and he had to do
- 16:44Speaker 1: his job. Like that's why he was like, I'm just
- 16:45Speaker 1: trying to enjoy my lunch, because he's just living his life.
- 16:48Speaker 2: You know.
- 16:48Speaker 1: Like a lot of people that have an opinion on
- 16:51Speaker 1: this either way, they're generally busy. They have jobs, and
- 16:56Speaker 1: a lot of the people who are protesting don't have jobs,
- 16:58Speaker 1: and I mean they have obviously the free time to
- 17:00Speaker 1: do that, so you know, that's that's part of it too.
- 17:04Speaker 1: But I think what the what the protesters were angry
- 17:07Speaker 1: about when they first Yes they did have that conclusion,
- 17:10Speaker 1: but again they have been conditioned to find men and
- 17:16Speaker 1: white men in particular suspicious period. So like it gets
- 17:20Speaker 1: presented this way on the media. It's like a twenty
- 17:23Speaker 1: four hour meat news cycle that's just constantly churning out
- 17:27Speaker 1: this narrative.
- 17:28Speaker 2: But I don't think it's new.
- 17:29Speaker 1: I think it's just this is just what the purpose
- 17:32Speaker 1: of the progressive stack is is to essentially like alien a,
- 17:36Speaker 1: exclude and criminalize men, but particularly white men. And that's
- 17:43Speaker 1: why these women, who are probably white women, were completely
- 17:46Speaker 1: okay with it. And so when that didn't work out,
- 17:49Speaker 1: I think that what came next was they were like, well,
- 17:51Speaker 1: if you're not, if you claim that you're not one
- 17:54Speaker 1: of them, then why aren't you out here with us?
- 17:58Speaker 1: Which is why they made that. They said, you know,
- 18:00Speaker 1: you're either with us or against us. So basically there
- 18:04Speaker 1: is no indifferent position. You can't be you can't even
- 18:07Speaker 1: be like passively supportive. You can't be like, well, you know,
- 18:10Speaker 1: I appreciate what you guys are doing, but I got
- 18:12Speaker 1: to go. I got my own personal responsibilities. I got
- 18:15Speaker 1: my own personal stuff going on. They're gonna be like, no,
- 18:18Speaker 1: you don't. That obviously means you don't care because you haven't,
- 18:20Speaker 1: you know, essentially thrown your.
- 18:22Speaker 2: Life away to support us.
- 18:24Speaker 1: And so that's where that's where that whole you know,
- 18:26Speaker 1: you're either with us or you're against us comes from.
- 18:29Speaker 1: That's why these guys are tarred with suspicion. And I
- 18:32Speaker 1: hope that those guys reconsider I really do, because these
- 18:35Speaker 1: people are not their friends at all, They are their enemy.
- 18:39Speaker 3: And look at the situation, these are just what was there?
- 18:44Speaker 3: What was their crime. According to these they were.
- 18:46Speaker 2: Just being in public.
- 18:50Speaker 3: Yeah, and probably Latino men would probably be eventually folded
- 18:53Speaker 3: into that might be a little harder to do black men.
- 18:56Speaker 3: But if because again that.
- 18:59Speaker 1: We've seen that, we've seen that, like you know, Latino
- 19:02Speaker 1: men they are the enemy because they came out in
- 19:06Speaker 1: record numbers in the last election, So they're no longer
- 19:10Speaker 1: protected anymore, unless, of course illegals, in which case they are.
- 19:14Speaker 2: But like the legal Latinos, no, you know.
- 19:16Speaker 1: So I think that the racial thing is just like
- 19:19Speaker 1: it adds a little bit of a wrinkle, but it
- 19:21Speaker 1: doesn't really stop anything, because really what it comes down
- 19:24Speaker 1: to is, you know, are you serving our cause ideology
- 19:29Speaker 1: or our cause or not?
- 19:30Speaker 2: And if you are, then you're you're allowed in.
- 19:33Speaker 1: But you know, this is conditional that you continuously prove
- 19:37Speaker 1: yourself and if you are not, then you are basically
- 19:40Speaker 1: not human.
- 19:41Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, but what I wanted to point out
- 19:44Speaker 3: is that this is this is this is the targeting
- 19:47Speaker 3: of a particular demographic, and it's targeting because these are
- 19:50Speaker 3: men who are not obviously aligned with them, And this
- 19:54Speaker 3: is targeting men. So it's becoming a situation where men
- 19:58Speaker 3: can't be in public specifically, if you're white men, you
- 20:02Speaker 3: might get away with it if you are other men
- 20:04Speaker 3: of other races are obviously gay. But men can't be
- 20:08Speaker 3: in public unless they affiliate with this side, and if
- 20:13Speaker 3: they don't, they're going to be targeted, right, And even
- 20:16Speaker 3: if they do, they can still be targeted. So what
- 20:20Speaker 3: I'm saying is that at a fundamental level, at a
- 20:23Speaker 3: fundamental kind of knee jerk level, these people have declared
- 20:28Speaker 3: who their enemy actually is. Let's be honest, right, white
- 20:35Speaker 3: men in particular and all men in universal at some point, okay,
- 20:43Speaker 3: you know, and and that, and that's what this shows. Yeah,
- 20:47Speaker 3: what was their great crime? What got them targeted? Five
- 20:51Speaker 3: white men in public having lunch, that's what got And
- 20:54Speaker 3: they had laptops apparently, Oh boy, geez, that's that's really that's.
- 21:00Speaker 2: Really do a fascism.
- 21:03Speaker 3: Yeah, they were gonna do those, form.
- 21:05Speaker 1: A firing squad of laptops of aggressive coding or something.
- 21:12Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 21:13Speaker 3: But I just want you to note that, like this,
- 21:15Speaker 3: this is illustrating who is considered outside of their or
- 21:23Speaker 3: in the sights of their threat narrative, right, who has
- 21:26Speaker 3: to make an effort to show they aren't deserving of violence.
- 21:32Speaker 3: Who has to make an effort to show that they
- 21:33Speaker 3: actually belong, who is eventually going to have to wear
- 21:36Speaker 3: gang colors so they aren't assaulted in public. That that
- 21:40Speaker 3: right here you can see exactly who is outside of
- 21:46Speaker 3: their circle of acceptable. Now let's go actually, let's read
- 21:50Speaker 3: the Let's read through the tweet because I think it's
- 21:52Speaker 3: really interesting. So you read the first first, uh, first sentence,
- 21:57Speaker 3: go read the whole thing, and then we'll go to
- 21:58Speaker 3: the next tweet.
- 22:00Speaker 2: This right here, what yeah, yeah, sure.
- 22:04Speaker 1: What began as a casual lunch between five Twin City
- 22:07Speaker 1: software engineers quickly escalated into a frightening encounter after the
- 22:11Speaker 1: men were misidentified as undercover federal agents and protesters were
- 22:15Speaker 1: alerted to the Minneapolis restaurant where they were dining. Alpha
- 22:19Speaker 1: News obtained video and spoke with one of the men, Lee,
- 22:22Speaker 1: a software engineer from Plymouth, who described how the situation unfolded.
- 22:26Speaker 1: Lee said the group was eating lunch at Clancy's Deli
- 22:29Speaker 1: near thirty eighth Street and Grand Avenue South, when one
- 22:33Speaker 1: of the men, who belongs to an anti ice signal chat,
- 22:36Speaker 1: received a message from a group labeled sw Minneapolis Rapid Response,
- 22:41Speaker 1: claiming that Plaine clothsed ICE agents were dining at the restaurant.
- 22:46Speaker 2: My friend was shocked.
- 22:47Speaker 1: Lee said, he's on the anti ICE side politically. He
- 22:51Speaker 1: lives nearby, he's eaten there before, and suddenly he's seeing
- 22:54Speaker 1: messages saying we're Ice. The software engineers, all white males,
- 22:58Speaker 1: dressed casually and sweatshe shirts and jackets, were soon confronted
- 23:02Speaker 1: by Sorry, this thing started playing again for some reason.
- 23:04Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, it's just yes x. Yeah.
- 23:09Speaker 1: All white males dress casually and sweatshirts and jackets were
- 23:12Speaker 1: soon confronted by protesters, who surrounded the restaurant, shouting insults
- 23:16Speaker 1: and blowing whistles in their ears as they attempted to leave.
- 23:19Speaker 1: According to Lee, Lee emphasized the Alpha News that the
- 23:22Speaker 1: group's political views were mixed, but said the encounter left
- 23:25Speaker 1: some of them reconsidering their positions. One of us is
- 23:28Speaker 1: pro ICE, one anti anti ICE, others on the fence.
- 23:31Speaker 1: He said, after this, I think some of them are
- 23:33Speaker 1: rethinking everything.
- 23:34Speaker 3: Well, and then you just you just justified why you
- 23:38Speaker 3: were targeted by saying that one of you was anti
- 23:42Speaker 3: the idea that.
- 23:43Speaker 2: There was even a mix at the table, that that
- 23:46Speaker 2: makes that.
- 23:47Speaker 3: You just you just justified why why the anti ice
- 23:50Speaker 3: protesters targeted you. We got somebody from the special chat.
- 23:54Speaker 3: His name is Doc Gadget eleven, and he says, imagine
- 23:57Speaker 3: if those five dudes was was any other demographic, would
- 24:02Speaker 3: those people act the same way? The answer is yes
- 24:05Speaker 3: they would. No, the answer is no, they wouldn't. Do
- 24:08Speaker 3: you honestly think that this lunch place didn't have people
- 24:10Speaker 3: of other demographics in tables eating in plain clothes. Yes,
- 24:16Speaker 3: it was like a lot. It's it's a it's a cafe,
- 24:18Speaker 3: not a cafe here, it's like a deli or something.
- 24:21Speaker 3: It's a place where people eat lunch in plain clothes
- 24:24Speaker 3: in groups. Like think about this guy. They were targeted
- 24:28Speaker 3: of all you think in Minneapolis there aren't groups of
- 24:31Speaker 3: women eating lunch in plain clothes. I'm sure there are
- 24:35Speaker 3: even more groups of women out in Minneapolis, groups of
- 24:39Speaker 3: five women. When when I go to the city and
- 24:42Speaker 3: we go and have lunch, and we sit down in
- 24:45Speaker 3: a deli or a restaurant or maybe a fast food joint,
- 24:48Speaker 3: or maybe maybe we'll have like some kind of nibbles
- 24:51Speaker 3: in like Starbucks or whatever. When we sit down, guess
- 24:56Speaker 3: who is occupying most of the other tables, women in
- 25:01Speaker 3: groups in playing clothes. And yet it was not women
- 25:06Speaker 3: in groups in plain clothes that these anti ice protesters targeted.
- 25:11Speaker 3: It was five white men in plain clothes having lunch together.
- 25:16Speaker 3: Because that is not allowed, that is considered suspect by
- 25:19Speaker 3: their threat detection algorithms. Let's put it that way, like
- 25:25Speaker 3: that what they think is instinctively suspect and potentially a problem.
- 25:30Speaker 3: So they are indeed targeting a particular demographic and in
- 25:34Speaker 3: particular groups of that particular demographic. And also they had
- 25:39Speaker 3: they were laptopping menacingly, So you know, you got to
- 25:45Speaker 3: go after these guys. And don't give me this crap
- 25:48Speaker 3: that they would have gone after any demographic. If they
- 25:51Speaker 3: were going after every single five woman group like lunch
- 25:56Speaker 3: group in Minneapolis, I think they would have been very busy,
- 26:00Speaker 3: and there would have been a lot. There have been
- 26:01Speaker 3: a lot of evidence of it. But somehow this is
- 26:04Speaker 3: the only one. Mm Okay, all right, So why don't
- 26:10Speaker 3: we pull up because this is even more telling. Let's
- 26:13Speaker 3: pull up the next one, the one that you originally.
- 26:16Speaker 2: Had, the clown World one.
- 26:17Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, I got I got a super chowd from
- 26:21Speaker 1: Albatross for five dollars. He did not include any message
- 26:26Speaker 1: to go along with it. So if you meant to
- 26:27Speaker 1: say something albatross, oh, he says, if it doesn't read,
- 26:31Speaker 1: I said, activists focus more brain power on the goings
- 26:34Speaker 1: on of white people than actual white supremacists. Well there
- 26:38Speaker 1: isn't really a distinction, and a lot of in a
- 26:41Speaker 1: lot of cases, and again especially when it comes to men,
- 26:45Speaker 1: because like this is why so often white women are
- 26:50Speaker 1: the sort of like self appointed heroes of the story,
- 26:54Speaker 1: and so they basically go after the white men like
- 26:56Speaker 1: they feel like they're the only ones that can really
- 26:58Speaker 1: do it. So yeah, but anyway, so let's go on
- 27:04Speaker 1: to the next one. This is a clown world, and
- 27:09Speaker 1: it says man in Minneapolis being confronted and labeled a
- 27:11Speaker 1: Nazi over alledged support for ICE before being assaulted and
- 27:14Speaker 1: knocked out. Moments later, someone in the crowd shouts, he's
- 27:17Speaker 1: one of us, appearing to realize they attacked one of
- 27:20Speaker 1: their own. So another case of mistaken identity because some
- 27:24Speaker 1: dude just got jumped suddenly again, I gotta do the
- 27:30Speaker 1: sound sorry, guys.
- 27:33Speaker 3: Yeah, it's fine, We'll wait through the mini technical difficulties.
- 27:39Speaker 6: All right, there we go we're back, all right.
- 27:52Speaker 4: Okay, good lord?
- 28:12Speaker 3: What would have happened if he wasn't.
- 28:16Speaker 1: They could have beat him to death, Allison. If they did,
- 28:19Speaker 1: we wouldn't hear anything about it. It wouldn't be news.
- 28:22Speaker 3: No, I don't know, just a man who cares about them.
- 28:27Speaker 3: And honestly, he sort of deserved it because he wasn't
- 28:30Speaker 3: clearly delineating his affiliation in public, and he wasn't clearly
- 28:36Speaker 3: showing that he was anti ice in public. Any kind
- 28:39Speaker 3: of dude or white adjacent dude that's walking in public
- 28:42Speaker 3: without clearly putting on the anti ice burka deserves to
- 28:47Speaker 3: get his ass kicked.
- 28:48Speaker 1: This is why, like you know, we used to have
- 28:50Speaker 1: like standard bearers, so we knew like what, you know,
- 28:53Speaker 1: what force they were with.
- 28:54Speaker 2: And these guys just need.
- 28:55Speaker 1: Standard bearers and flags and banners and stuff so that
- 28:59Speaker 1: we don't so that they who is a human and
- 29:01Speaker 1: who is not.
- 29:02Speaker 3: Yeah, and at that point, basically we're talking about insurrection.
- 29:07Speaker 2: We're already talking about insurrection, we're like running it.
- 29:12Speaker 3: At that point, it's likely no denial.
- 29:17Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's taking a little too long
- 29:20Speaker 1: to crack down anyway, But I understand that, you know,
- 29:24Speaker 1: there's like there's there's a there's a process you have
- 29:28Speaker 1: to do. You can't just like just go in, right,
- 29:30Speaker 1: And but I do think that something is going to
- 29:32Speaker 1: happen like this is just that there's definitely gonna be
- 29:35Speaker 1: uh consequences and repercussions.
- 29:38Speaker 2: But let's finish this clip. Now.
- 29:53Speaker 1: Is this ice or are these just the cops because
- 29:57Speaker 1: it looks like they're coming that to help this guy.
- 29:59Speaker 3: So yeah, but is that Honestly, yes, they they stopped
- 30:03Speaker 3: attacking him, but considering that they attacked him in the
- 30:07Speaker 3: first place, it probably is a good idea to get
- 30:11Speaker 3: him out of there and get him to some somebody,
- 30:14Speaker 3: like some medical attention. Right. And the other thing is,
- 30:22Speaker 3: you know, he looks like he got a concussion. I'm
- 30:23Speaker 3: pretty he was on the ground.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, they he was on the ground. He was
- 30:29Speaker 1: he was obviously stunned. He couldn't really stand well, he
- 30:33Speaker 1: was like concussed or something.
- 30:36Speaker 3: So yeah, And when when you're in like a situation
- 30:39Speaker 3: of that and everybody is like really high keyed, and
- 30:43Speaker 3: there is a there is the push to like justify
- 30:48Speaker 3: the violence that you just engaged in. If he says
- 30:51Speaker 3: the wrong thing, they might turn on him again, right,
- 30:56Speaker 3: and if he's if he's if he's stunned, he's probably
- 30:58Speaker 3: not really fully aware of his faculties. So the fact
- 31:03Speaker 3: that the police got in there, got rid of them
- 31:06Speaker 3: or ice or whatever, this is probably the police, and
- 31:09Speaker 3: then pulled him out of that is probably a good
- 31:11Speaker 3: thing because.
- 31:12Speaker 1: That's probably why they jumped in because they may have
- 31:14Speaker 1: seen this crowd staying around this guy that was like
- 31:18Speaker 1: barely able to stand, and they thought, well, this guy's
- 31:20Speaker 1: getting assaulted.
- 31:22Speaker 7: So yeah, all right, back up, yes, say you're Nazi?
- 31:33Speaker 5: What I mean, you're not even go get him some help.
- 31:36Speaker 1: So now, so now this guy, even though he said
- 31:39Speaker 1: he was one of them, because the police came, or
- 31:42Speaker 1: Ice came maybe, uh, and they helped this guy up.
- 31:47Speaker 2: Now this guy's a Nazi because he's getting help from Nazis,
- 31:49Speaker 2: you see. So now they're calling him one health There.
- 31:58Speaker 5: No got done.
- 32:04Speaker 3: Lord, You guys almost beat someone to death through your
- 32:08Speaker 3: fucked up threat detection who potentially could have been on
- 32:12Speaker 3: your side. So you are literally in a situation where
- 32:16Speaker 3: your threat detection is so fucked up it's just like
- 32:19Speaker 3: pinging on every white man in the freaking vicinity. But
- 32:22Speaker 3: guess what, most of you are like you're you're a
- 32:26Speaker 3: bunch of disaffected white men who are using violence to
- 32:31Speaker 3: try to find an identity. You're trying to go and
- 32:34Speaker 3: find a man to beat to death in order to
- 32:37Speaker 3: feel like you belong right. This is this is the
- 32:40Speaker 3: insanity of this. It's like we're watching we're speed running
- 32:44Speaker 3: the French terror here, like, woh.
- 32:48Speaker 1: Well, if you if you kill enough, maybe as a
- 32:52Speaker 1: white man, if you kill enough other white men, you'll
- 32:55Speaker 1: be able to like ascend, yeah, beyond being another white guy.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Yeah, you'll be able to ascend. You know. It's funny
- 33:04Speaker 3: because I've recently been looking into and reading, yeah, a
- 33:09Speaker 3: book called Gate to Women's Country, which was written by
- 33:12Speaker 3: a feminist, and it pretty much lays out this entire
- 33:15Speaker 3: kind of mental landscape that they want men to occupy.
- 33:20Speaker 3: So they have these two groups of men. One are
- 33:23Speaker 3: what they call well warriors, and they live in a
- 33:27Speaker 3: supposed honor culture, which actually isn't It's just it's a
- 33:32Speaker 3: it's very violent. There's no real kind of loyalty or anything.
- 33:36Speaker 3: It's just an incredibly violent, uh culture of men. And
- 33:40Speaker 3: then there's this other group of men they call servitors,
- 33:43Speaker 3: and they are the men because they force their boys
- 33:48Speaker 3: the women's town. There's like women's town, and then there's
- 33:50Speaker 3: the garrison, and then there are the men who are
- 33:53Speaker 3: allowed back into women's town. When they leave the garrison,
- 33:57Speaker 3: the warriors garrison, they come back and I don't know,
- 34:00Speaker 3: they go through some ritual humiliation, they beg for forgiveness,
- 34:04Speaker 3: and they're allowed to position as a servitor, which is
- 34:07Speaker 3: a man who's completely sacrificed every single bit of his autonomy,
- 34:10Speaker 3: but at the same time is intensely violent. And the
- 34:15Speaker 3: justification for this entire chicanery because there's this cabal of
- 34:19Speaker 3: women who set it all up. They set up the garrison,
- 34:23Speaker 3: so they set up the rules of the warriors that
- 34:26Speaker 3: they then use as evidence why men need to be
- 34:30Speaker 3: put in a position where they have no autonomy. But
- 34:33Speaker 3: they set up the example of the men like so
- 34:36Speaker 3: they say, well, men are like this, but they're the
- 34:38Speaker 3: ones who constructed the example. It's exactly what you were
- 34:41Speaker 3: talking about, Brian. They look at feminist literature or feminist
- 34:48Speaker 3: productions like TV about what men are and they say, well,
- 34:52Speaker 3: men are like this. That's why it's justified that we
- 34:55Speaker 3: take away their autonomy. Same difference with this book, they
- 34:59Speaker 3: created the bad men, which they then use to justify
- 35:04Speaker 3: taking away men's autonomy. But what's interesting about the servitors
- 35:07Speaker 3: is that they are actually intensely violent, like absolutely, So
- 35:12Speaker 3: it wasn't men's violence that the women in this feminist
- 35:17Speaker 3: dystopia wanted to get rid of. They wanted to get
- 35:19Speaker 3: rid of men's autonomy and deciding how to employ their
- 35:24Speaker 3: violence so that they turned these men into these instruments
- 35:29Speaker 3: of violence which they controlled, they directed, and they did
- 35:34Speaker 3: so by removing men's identity, like a sense that they
- 35:38Speaker 3: had any legitimacy as a person. And so they created
- 35:42Speaker 3: these incredibly violent men who in a lot of ways
- 35:46Speaker 3: seem to live for killing other men. Right, And this
- 35:51Speaker 3: is what we're seeing. That's what you just saw. These
- 35:55Speaker 3: are a bunch of men who've had their precariousness, what
- 36:01Speaker 3: they call precarious men, who had weaponized against other men.
- 36:05Speaker 3: Why did they Why did they target that guy because
- 36:10Speaker 3: just he was They.
- 36:11Speaker 1: Would say that it was because he was wearing camouflage.
- 36:15Speaker 1: So they thought like, oh, he must be ice because
- 36:17Speaker 1: he was he had like a cameo jacket on.
- 36:20Speaker 2: That's what I think, But.
- 36:23Speaker 1: No, I know, it's just like a it's like a
- 36:26Speaker 1: surface level thing. But I mean also, you know, he
- 36:29Speaker 1: was also a white dude, Like that's yes, a lot
- 36:32Speaker 1: of ice officers are minority men, but because they're wearing
- 36:36Speaker 1: like yeah, I mean like a lot of them.
- 36:38Speaker 3: Yeah, but but but that's not how ice officers are coded.
- 36:42Speaker 3: First of all, there's also female ice officers. But who's
- 36:45Speaker 3: getting attacked? White men? Oh yeah, because they are coded
- 36:50Speaker 3: as being the ones who are evil. They are coded
- 36:53Speaker 3: as being white adjacent. That dude was not just attacked
- 36:57Speaker 3: because he was in camo. It was a combination of
- 37:00Speaker 3: being in camo and being white, which there are a
- 37:03Speaker 3: lot of guys who wear camo, A lot of guys
- 37:05Speaker 3: who aren't even on the right who wear camo, and
- 37:08Speaker 3: those guys.
- 37:10Speaker 2: A right wing thing is just camo.
- 37:14Speaker 3: And the guy and that guy who was attacked, right,
- 37:17Speaker 3: he was those that that group of men. Why were
- 37:22Speaker 3: they attacked? They were completely in plain clothes. They were
- 37:25Speaker 3: attacked because they were a group of men in public
- 37:30Speaker 3: having lunch in plain clothes and menacingly losing their laptops.
- 37:36Speaker 3: But they were attacked because they were white men in public,
- 37:40Speaker 3: menacingly using their laptops. And I'm not saying this because
- 37:43Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, I'm like a white nationalist. I'm saying
- 37:47Speaker 3: this because this particular narrative, that's who their black category is.
- 37:51Speaker 3: That's the category of people that has to justify to
- 37:55Speaker 3: them why they get to exist in public right, and
- 37:59Speaker 3: has to be really careful about how they signal in
- 38:02Speaker 3: public because this dude who apparently was one of their
- 38:06Speaker 3: own until he was taken away by the police, in
- 38:08Speaker 3: which case he became a Nazi. God knows what that means,
- 38:13Speaker 3: but anyway, he ended up slipping into the black category
- 38:18Speaker 3: simply by because he had a camel jacket on, right,
- 38:22Speaker 3: What kind of mistake is that? What kind of trigger
- 38:27Speaker 3: is that? If you're a white dude in public and
- 38:30Speaker 3: you make the least amount of mistake, you were suddenly
- 38:32Speaker 3: the enemy and you are going to be hunted down
- 38:35Speaker 3: by other white dudes who are going to beat the
- 38:37Speaker 3: shit out of you and maybe kill you, like and
- 38:41Speaker 3: that that whole scene where he's like, oh, this guy's
- 38:44Speaker 3: one of us. God forbid, he had actually not been
- 38:48Speaker 3: what the hell would have happened then, or he hadn't
- 38:51Speaker 3: had somebody to speak up, and maybe in the heat
- 38:53Speaker 3: of the moment realized Oh shit, I don't want to
- 38:55Speaker 3: see this guy get murdered in front of me, ganked
- 38:58Speaker 3: in front of me. I'll just like he's one of us,
- 39:01Speaker 3: to stop this. Like if he hadn't had either he
- 39:04Speaker 3: hadn't either at being one of them, or had someone
- 39:08Speaker 3: willing to speak up and say, hey, he's one of
- 39:11Speaker 3: us in order to protect him, what the hell would
- 39:13Speaker 3: have happened? Right? What would they have done with this
- 39:19Speaker 3: threat response that's triggered to Hey, that's a white dude,
- 39:23Speaker 3: maybe wearing the wrong thing, or using a laptop, menacingly
- 39:26Speaker 3: in public, or being in a group of other white
- 39:28Speaker 3: dudes like these are pretty The thing is that a
- 39:35Speaker 3: white man in public, or a man in public I guess,
- 39:39Speaker 3: if I guess it's a black man and he looks
- 39:41Speaker 3: particularly military, or a Latino man who looks particularly cop like,
- 39:46Speaker 3: you know, they might also be pulled it in. But
- 39:48Speaker 3: it seems like that white men are automatically under suspicion.
- 39:52Speaker 3: You know, I've said white man so many times in this,
- 39:55Speaker 3: but I'm just saying, this is their threat profile. This
- 40:00Speaker 3: is their threat profile. And let's be honest. The reason
- 40:02Speaker 3: why it's white men is because white men are the
- 40:05Speaker 3: men of men.
- 40:06Speaker 1: Yes, white men are the straight men of men.
- 40:10Speaker 2: They are the they are the most privileged. That's what
- 40:13Speaker 2: it is. It's the it's just a progressive stack. You
- 40:15Speaker 2: remember the progressive stack. You remember the most patriarchal, the.
- 40:21Speaker 3: White checklist, the white you remember the white coded or
- 40:24Speaker 3: privileged checklist.
- 40:26Speaker 2: So, yeah, a while.
- 40:29Speaker 3: Back and you commented and you said, this is just men,
- 40:32Speaker 3: this is just masculinity.
- 40:34Speaker 1: There was a list of white things, but most of
- 40:37Speaker 1: it was masculine things. Yes, I remember, Yeah, all masculine things,
- 40:42Speaker 1: with maybe very few exceptions.
- 40:45Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. So if you're if you're a Latino man,
- 40:48Speaker 3: you're not actually a man, You're just something else, I guess,
- 40:54Speaker 3: because you can't. You can only be a man, truly
- 40:57Speaker 3: a man, if you're white.
- 40:59Speaker 2: Well.
- 41:00Speaker 1: I think there is a suggestion though, too, in that
- 41:03Speaker 1: list of whiteness. There is a suggestion that if you
- 41:08Speaker 1: are not a white man, but a man of a
- 41:12Speaker 1: different race, that you are expected to not behave in
- 41:17Speaker 1: the ways on this list because you're perpetuating whiteness, which
- 41:22Speaker 1: means it's not just attacking white men for their identity,
- 41:26Speaker 1: but it's also telling non white men or all other
- 41:30Speaker 1: men that they have to alter their nature so that
- 41:35Speaker 1: they are not becoming light white men. So this is why,
- 41:41Speaker 1: I don't know if you know what I'm saying, but
- 41:42Speaker 1: like black men can't be men either, because that's basically
- 41:46Speaker 1: perpetuating whiteness. According to that or whatever, it is like
- 41:50Speaker 1: essentially a structure, a kind of property that these women
- 41:56Speaker 1: don't have. So like they attack masculinity, and I have
- 42:00Speaker 1: a clip of a woman that she's an absolute witch,
- 42:04Speaker 1: but they attack masculinity and call it attacking something that
- 42:10Speaker 1: they think might be seen as a little bit less insidious.
- 42:15Speaker 1: So like, if you're a like, say you're a black
- 42:18Speaker 1: guy or a Latino guy, and you see a journalist
- 42:22Speaker 1: saying that we have to deconstruct whiteness, you might shrug
- 42:25Speaker 1: and say, well, they're not talking about me, but they
- 42:28Speaker 1: are talking about you. They're just not saying it's you
- 42:32Speaker 1: because when you look at what it is, they're actually
- 42:34Speaker 1: going after it's masculinity, but they're calling it white because
- 42:39Speaker 1: it's safer to attack that. That's what I'm saying, right,
- 42:42Speaker 1: And now it seems weird because you think that masculinity
- 42:45Speaker 1: itself is the safest thing, but these people believe that
- 42:48Speaker 1: you can use your race as a shield to protect
- 42:51Speaker 1: yourself at least to some degree where you can't be criticized.
- 42:56Speaker 1: But what they do is they criticize everything that you
- 42:58Speaker 1: are with saying it's without saying it's you. So and
- 43:03Speaker 1: you'll see that because when BLM and I use BLM's
- 43:07Speaker 1: mission statement all the time, even though BLM itself is
- 43:12Speaker 1: you know, for the most part, like not relevant, although
- 43:14Speaker 1: it's not gone, because the mission statement is the same.
- 43:18Speaker 1: No matter what you call the group, it's always like,
- 43:21Speaker 1: you know, what is it tearing down the the patriarchal
- 43:26Speaker 1: idea of the family with the father as the head.
- 43:29Speaker 1: It's it's always about removing men, removing masculinity, And they
- 43:34Speaker 1: just call it something else.
- 43:36Speaker 2: They'll say, no, no, no, we're going after white people.
- 43:37Speaker 1: And then and the black guys like, oh, well okay then,
- 43:40Speaker 1: but they're not they're going after you.
- 43:41Speaker 2: They've already gone after you.
- 43:42Speaker 1: You can't see your kids, you don't know who, you
- 43:45Speaker 1: don't know if those kids are yours, right, So like
- 43:49Speaker 1: we have to like get past that and look at
- 43:52Speaker 1: it for what it really is.
- 43:54Speaker 3: So some albatross says, I'm a straight black guy, So
- 43:59Speaker 3: am I still a guy? Are queer? They them, Well,
- 44:03Speaker 3: the problem is that if you're a man, uh, your
- 44:07Speaker 3: masculinity is coded white. So as long as you act masculine,
- 44:12Speaker 3: you are the white men of black people.
- 44:15Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 44:16Speaker 1: Remember they said, stay, black men are the white people
- 44:18Speaker 1: of black people.
- 44:20Speaker 2: Yeah, that was on the route they were just telling you. So, yeah,
- 44:25Speaker 2: they have it.
- 44:25Speaker 1: They already have a cast system, and they're just playing
- 44:29Speaker 1: word games and rhetorical tricks to get people to like
- 44:33Speaker 1: go along with it. But but you're also their enemy
- 44:36Speaker 1: just as much.
- 44:37Speaker 2: I know you know that.
- 44:38Speaker 3: So yeah, but yeah, it's it's just rhetorical. But uh,
- 44:42Speaker 3: did you read Albatross's super Chowel because I know it's
- 44:45Speaker 3: a little complex.
- 44:46Speaker 2: Well then he said another one because I read did
- 44:49Speaker 2: he send another one? No? I didn't get another one.
- 44:52Speaker 1: I read the comment that was already attached to the previous.
- 44:56Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, all right, it just didn't show up. I
- 44:59Speaker 3: just wanted to check.
- 45:00Speaker 2: Okay, so yeah, I did it earlier. But okay, so what.
- 45:03Speaker 3: I wanted to get at is the group of people
- 45:05Speaker 3: with no plausible deniability and this these people's threat narrative
- 45:09Speaker 3: is white man. And I mean maybe it requires an
- 45:13Speaker 3: additional trigger like wearing camouflage or or being in a group.
- 45:17Speaker 3: But yeah, it's it's looking like it's there.
- 45:20Speaker 2: Just maybe it just makes a good excuse. That's that's
- 45:23Speaker 2: why I'm saying, Like like.
- 45:25Speaker 1: They were, they were on the streets looking for somebody's
- 45:28Speaker 1: ass to kick, Yeah, and they chose him because probably
- 45:33Speaker 1: compared to anyone else who was on the street, he
- 45:36Speaker 1: looked the most suspicious to them, and so being a
- 45:39Speaker 1: white dude was the primary thing that they looked at.
- 45:43Speaker 1: And then they just narrowed it down further and they said, well,
- 45:45Speaker 1: he's wearing camouflage, so you know orders or like the
- 45:48Speaker 1: colors were similar, because I don't know, if you know,
- 45:50Speaker 1: the the Ice agents that came out and saved him,
- 45:54Speaker 1: they were wearing like tan, you know, kind of like
- 45:57Speaker 1: war like earth tones as well.
- 45:59Speaker 2: So maybe they were just like, oh, this is this
- 46:01Speaker 2: is the same thing. But anyway, it.
- 46:03Speaker 1: Doesn't matter it did it was originally or primarily because
- 46:06Speaker 1: he was a white guy. Primarily because he was a guy.
- 46:09Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, and uh, I just wanted to point
- 46:15Speaker 3: I just want you guys to situate that in your minds,
- 46:18Speaker 3: this is their threat profile. This is the out group, right, Okay,
- 46:24Speaker 3: this is their outgroup men white men, but only because
- 46:29Speaker 3: white is like saying man men like it's it's like man,
- 46:33Speaker 3: you know, you got men and then you got whiteness,
- 46:36Speaker 3: which is just like more men. It's like adding man
- 46:40Speaker 3: to man, so you just get like double man, man
- 46:45Speaker 3: squared white is man squared.
- 46:49Speaker 2: Yep.
- 46:50Speaker 3: Right, Okay, So that's why they that's why that's the
- 46:53Speaker 3: out group, that's why that's the black category, and that
- 46:56Speaker 3: is specifically what their threat response is keep which is
- 47:00Speaker 3: really crazy because you're looking at this and it's basically
- 47:03Speaker 3: white men trying to lynch other white men. M Uh,
- 47:09Speaker 3: you know, I don't want to. I don't like I'm
- 47:11Speaker 3: laughing but also crying a little inside. And it again,
- 47:15Speaker 3: it's that servitor masculinity. It's that masculinity in that denies
- 47:21Speaker 3: itself and delights in murdering other men in it, either
- 47:26Speaker 3: socially or physically, because it's it's an expression of not
- 47:30Speaker 3: being being the one good man. If the best way
- 47:34Speaker 3: to be the one good man is to just murder
- 47:37Speaker 3: every other man, just beat the shit out of every
- 47:40Speaker 3: other man, that's the best way to be the one
- 47:42Speaker 3: good man. That's the best way to justify why you
- 47:46Speaker 3: should be the one to you know, get something or
- 47:49Speaker 3: at least be justified to continue to exist. All right,
- 47:53Speaker 3: So did you want to show the spot? You spoke
- 47:58Speaker 3: of a woman who was particular.
- 48:00Speaker 2: Yet it has it doesn't have anything.
- 48:02Speaker 1: To do with these protests, but I could show you.
- 48:07Speaker 1: I mean, there is a conversation going on with this woman.
- 48:11Speaker 1: Let me see if I got I just got to
- 48:12Speaker 1: look for it really quick in my Yeah, here it
- 48:16Speaker 1: is Jennifer Welch is her name, and she she basically
- 48:20Speaker 1: just goes after masculinity. So I want to show this.
- 48:23Speaker 1: Let me see, hopefully the audio plays.
- 48:25Speaker 8: We have to go after these maga men. One example
- 48:29Speaker 8: would be Jesse Waters. This man talks incessantly about masculinity.
- 48:35Speaker 8: Joe Biden is not masculine because he sucks on soup.
- 48:38Speaker 8: What kind of man sucks on a straw? He goes
- 48:41Speaker 8: on and on and on so much about the idealized man.
- 48:45Speaker 8: And that's a part of fascism, this, you know, propelling
- 48:48Speaker 8: this form of toxic masculinity. Why are you so obsessed.
- 48:51Speaker 3: With okay, okay, stop here, toxic masculinity that means all masculinity,
- 48:58Speaker 3: all right. I don't know what he's taught talking about
- 49:00Speaker 3: with Biden's soup sucking soup through a straw. That sounds
- 49:04Speaker 3: like a joke. But when they talk about toxic masculinity,
- 49:07Speaker 3: and I have challenged these people over and over and
- 49:10Speaker 3: over again to identify anything positive that they associate with
- 49:14Speaker 3: men in masculinity in the same way that they associate
- 49:18Speaker 3: negative things, and they can't. So when they mean toxic masculinity,
- 49:22Speaker 3: they don't mean a subset of masculinity. They mean that
- 49:25Speaker 3: all masculinity is toxic, all of it because they don't
- 49:30Speaker 3: recognize anything unique about men or masculinity. That's good. They
- 49:34Speaker 3: can't because that would mean that women don't have it,
- 49:37Speaker 3: and then that would be that would be just misogyny.
- 49:41Speaker 3: So they can't. Like, literally, this woman can't. I bet
- 49:44Speaker 3: if I asked her, she couldn't identify a single positive
- 49:47Speaker 3: masculine thing, And in fact, she would probably identify the
- 49:51Speaker 3: desire to have some unique masculine value proposition as itself
- 49:56Speaker 3: being toxic toxic masculinity. And of course I'm expressing internalized
- 50:01Speaker 3: misogyny when I point that out. So when they say, oh,
- 50:06Speaker 3: they this is about toxic, No, they mean this is
- 50:08Speaker 3: about masculinity period. This individual that she's talking about Now,
- 50:12Speaker 3: I may disagree with him about how he defines masculinity maybe,
- 50:21Speaker 3: but I doubt that I would disagree with him on
- 50:24Speaker 3: the idea that there is positive things that are men masculine.
- 50:28Speaker 3: Right now, the way that she's talking about this, she
- 50:33Speaker 3: is pointing to this man and he and what she
- 50:37Speaker 3: really has a problem with because again she uses the
- 50:40Speaker 3: term toxic masculinity, which means all masculinity is toxic. The
- 50:44Speaker 3: thing that she really has a problem with is the
- 50:47Speaker 3: idea that this man allows that there's any legitimacy to men,
- 50:54Speaker 3: that men actually are a legitimate category of being right,
- 50:59Speaker 3: that men can just exist without constantly having to serve
- 51:04Speaker 3: something in order to be decent or acceptable, Like they
- 51:10Speaker 3: don't have to constantly be at like denying themselves and
- 51:15Speaker 3: their own existence as men in order to be esthetically
- 51:20Speaker 3: pleasing to her. That's what she has a problem with,
- 51:23Speaker 3: that men have any autonomy at all, like that men
- 51:28Speaker 3: recognize that they might have some kind of value that
- 51:31Speaker 3: she doesn't control by saying where it exists. That's the
- 51:36Speaker 3: problem she has. And I know it because I have
- 51:39Speaker 3: heard women like this constantly talking about the things that
- 51:43Speaker 3: they talk about, and I know why they attack particular men.
- 51:49Speaker 3: They attack them because those men are asserting that there
- 51:52Speaker 3: is something valuable about masculinity and being a man, that
- 51:57Speaker 3: there is something good. She's not really attacking him because
- 52:01Speaker 3: he says that a man can't drink through a straw.
- 52:04Speaker 3: Because she certainly would believe that masculinity is very conditional,
- 52:08Speaker 3: but her condition is that it always exists in a
- 52:12Speaker 3: state of precariousness and a state of trying and supplication
- 52:16Speaker 3: to whatever thing that she thinks it should be. All right,
- 52:19Speaker 3: you can finish it. I will keep my hat if
- 52:21Speaker 3: I'm wrong about this one.
- 52:22Speaker 2: No, no, you're not wrong.
- 52:24Speaker 1: This woman has advocated murder of her political enemies so
- 52:28Speaker 1: on a podcast, and she still has a show, doesn't
- 52:32Speaker 1: get banned or censored off of anything.
- 52:34Speaker 8: Form of toxic masculinity. Why are you so obsessed with men,
- 52:38Speaker 8: Jesse Waters, what's all that about? Why are you so
- 52:42Speaker 8: obsessed with trans people? Why are you thinking about genitals
- 52:46Speaker 8: all the time? Kind of flip the script.
- 52:49Speaker 3: We have to go after.
- 52:50Speaker 1: I'm pausing at Yeah, this is the thing that they
- 52:52Speaker 1: do where, uh, if a man talks about masculinity, they
- 52:57Speaker 1: just say, oh, you're gay. That's that's what she's doing, which,
- 53:00Speaker 1: by the way, hilariously of course, because this is how
- 53:02Speaker 1: these people are.
- 53:03Speaker 2: Suddenly gay is not like.
- 53:05Speaker 1: A protected class anymore, because now we're using it as
- 53:07Speaker 1: an insult against you. Do you see how they do that?
- 53:10Speaker 1: They always do that, right, Well, you just oh you
- 53:13Speaker 1: want tredy PTIs, that's all. I don't think Jesse Waters,
- 53:18Speaker 1: I mean, he's I don't think he's all that controversial.
- 53:20Speaker 1: He's very milk toast and mainstream. He's on Fox News,
- 53:23Speaker 1: he's an anchor. He doesn't say anything edgy. He's not
- 53:26Speaker 1: Nick Fuentes, you know, he's not the Tape Brothers. But
- 53:29Speaker 1: this woman just hates him, just hates him so well.
- 53:33Speaker 3: Of course they also hate people like me, and I'm
- 53:36Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't care like trans people, not gender,
- 53:41Speaker 3: non barrant binary, like whatever party of the spectrum you're on.
- 53:44Speaker 3: I still think that men are legitimate again, they should
- 53:48Speaker 3: have the right to exist without constantly supplicating to feminists.
- 53:53Speaker 3: And that gets me, like, and the thing is that
- 53:56Speaker 3: way back when I said that the the whole thing
- 54:01Speaker 3: about trans identity being conditional on other people's approval is
- 54:06Speaker 3: like masculine identity being conditional on other people's approof I
- 54:11Speaker 3: remember how pissed feminist got at me because of that,
- 54:15Speaker 3: because I how dare I make that comparison? How dare
- 54:21Speaker 3: I make the comparison between the things that trans people
- 54:25Speaker 3: experience and the things that men experience in terms of
- 54:29Speaker 3: always having to justify themselves to a group of people.
- 54:34Speaker 3: Who is the most strident, bitchy, bad faith human beings
- 54:39Speaker 3: in all of human existence? Hell, I think trans women
- 54:42Speaker 3: have are trans people probably have it better than that
- 54:44Speaker 3: at this point. But regardless, they did not like that.
- 54:48Speaker 3: They did not like that, Sam I am. That's why
- 54:50Speaker 3: I'm probably very close to the top in their most
- 54:53Speaker 3: hated people list. And I actually, I actually oops, I
- 54:58Speaker 3: actually have proof of that.
- 54:59Speaker 1: Now.
- 54:59Speaker 3: I've got like a cup ball of like academic cans
- 55:02Speaker 3: clucking over like me being part of the patriarch. It's
- 55:06Speaker 3: very interesting. I didn't even know about that.
- 55:08Speaker 2: But there are definitely female whisper networks on.
- 55:13Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting. You wake up one night. No it's
- 55:15Speaker 3: not X, it's academia.
- 55:17Speaker 1: Or academia, but there, well, how are they talking to
- 55:20Speaker 1: each other?
- 55:20Speaker 3: Are they doing it through thesis? You know?
- 55:23Speaker 2: Okay? Oh, okay, okay.
- 55:25Speaker 3: Through through through articles? And thesis statements.
- 55:30Speaker 2: First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they
- 55:35Speaker 2: and then you win.
- 55:37Speaker 3: I guess, yeah, okay, but I just found that it's
- 55:40Speaker 3: it's it's not every day you wake up and you
- 55:42Speaker 3: find out there's like an academic ecosystem that it has
- 55:48Speaker 3: grown up around trying to to say to to pathologize
- 55:52Speaker 3: the things that you say instead of actually dealing with
- 55:55Speaker 3: them honestly and only because you know you're a woman,
- 55:58Speaker 3: and they actually recognize that women do have social power
- 56:01Speaker 3: that men don't, but they can't take that to the
- 56:04Speaker 3: logical conclusion. So while they recognize that I might have
- 56:09Speaker 3: power that men don't in this sphere, they can't grapple
- 56:13Speaker 3: with how that what that implies about their own theories
- 56:17Speaker 3: of reality. So they just have to pathologize and treat
- 56:21Speaker 3: me like something that's very dangerous and very disease ridden
- 56:26Speaker 3: without recognizing why I'm danger It's a very it's a
- 56:30Speaker 3: very interesting type rope that they have to watch walk anyway,
- 56:34Speaker 3: did you have we done? Have we finished this?
- 56:36Speaker 6: Mm hmm?
- 56:37Speaker 1: Okay, So I just I just wanted to share because
- 56:41Speaker 1: it's like it's related.
- 56:43Speaker 2: That's all.
- 56:44Speaker 3: No, it is definitely related. Yeah, because let's face it,
- 56:48Speaker 3: there there is there is a men's rights angle to
- 56:52Speaker 3: all of this. And again I wanted to point I
- 56:55Speaker 3: use these two videos, the one where they targeted the men,
- 57:00Speaker 3: the white men, the man squared, the man square, the
- 57:05Speaker 3: multiple man squaredes in the in the lunch area where
- 57:10Speaker 3: they're eating, and then also targeted is just a man
- 57:13Speaker 3: squared on the street who just happened to be wearing camouflage.
- 57:18Speaker 3: You know, I guess he incited that. And I just
- 57:21Speaker 3: wanted to point that out because there is there is
- 57:23Speaker 3: a group of people that is definitely squarely within their
- 57:27Speaker 3: black category that you know, they that is outside of
- 57:31Speaker 3: what they think is moral, and it is most definitely male.
- 57:36Speaker 2: Right.
- 57:37Speaker 3: They wouldn't do that to women. They wouldn't do that
- 57:39Speaker 3: to white women. It's definitely male. So it's not white,
- 57:43Speaker 3: it's it's male.
- 57:45Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, all right, what do you want to do next?
- 57:48Speaker 2: The church?
- 57:50Speaker 3: Actually, I wanted to just just talk about take this
- 57:53Speaker 3: from a different angle, policing around Ice, talk about the
- 57:58Speaker 3: general stuff that's happened and my insight into what this implies.
- 58:03Speaker 3: So the policinger on ICE is being recoded as fascism
- 58:08Speaker 3: in a way that that sort of fits the framework
- 58:13Speaker 3: that I've been developing around how essentially you take whistle
- 58:19Speaker 3: blowing behavior or any kind of policing, and you know,
- 58:23Speaker 3: you have a bunch of steps, and then suddenly they're
- 58:26Speaker 3: a Nazi. Right, So you take somebody who's whistleblowing about
- 58:30Speaker 3: an institution who is engaging in bureaucratic graft, and then
- 58:34Speaker 3: you have a couple of steps and they're a Nazi.
- 58:36Speaker 3: It's the same kind of dynamic that I was calling
- 58:38Speaker 3: out when I did the video CNN where are the
- 58:43Speaker 3: where the nazis in Boston. It's just that they declare
- 58:47Speaker 3: anything that is critical of the regime to be this
- 58:50Speaker 3: black category. But there's particular steps to it. So ultimately
- 58:57Speaker 3: what it comes down to is any boundary setting against graft,
- 59:01Speaker 3: violence or fraud becomes patriarchal oppression, which is, as you know,
- 59:06Speaker 3: patriarchal oppression is adjacent to fascism and being a Nazi. Basically,
- 59:11Speaker 3: if you have a penist, you're probably a Nazi. That's
- 59:14Speaker 3: what you're seeing with these how these people were these
- 59:16Speaker 3: men were targeted while the people and institutions feeding off
- 59:20Speaker 3: the chaos claim moral immunity. So we have the nazification
- 59:26Speaker 3: of basic enforcement. Protest rhetoric repeatedly equates ICE and routine
- 59:31Speaker 3: law enforcement with gestapo, fascist president and thugs treating their
- 59:36Speaker 3: very presence in cities as illegitimate, regardless of specific conduct. Now,
- 59:41Speaker 3: remember you know what ICE was there under Obama, and
- 59:45Speaker 3: in fact he expanded their mandate right and they were
- 59:49Speaker 3: doing the same thing. But suddenly it's a problem now
- 59:53Speaker 3: in your framework. This is in my framework. This is
- 59:56Speaker 3: the first move. You redefine policing itself as fashion, so
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: that any investigation of wrongdoing, whether immigrant fraud, benefit fraud,
- 1:00:05Speaker 3: or outright violent behavior, can be dismissed as patriarchal oppression
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: rather than oversight. All right, So how this script works
- 1:00:13Speaker 3: on whistleblowers, protest leaders, and allied commentators frame themselves as
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: standing up to fascist ice attacks on our cities and
- 1:00:23Speaker 3: call for getting rid of those thugs, while presenting their
- 1:00:26Speaker 3: own side as structurally incapable of abuse. Once that frame
- 1:00:30Speaker 3: is in place, anyone who points to protester violence or
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: graft hotels, storming fireworks at officers, swarming journalist cars, or
- 1:00:37Speaker 3: a church incursion, or even violence against bystanders is easily
- 1:00:41Speaker 3: cast deciding with fascism or defending patriarchy. This is your
- 1:00:45Speaker 3: whistle blower. This is the whistleblower to not see pipeline
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: raise concerns about theft, physical intimidation, or diverse diversion of funds,
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: and the narrative machine relabels you as a fascist sympathizer.
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: Now why this happens is simple. This framework is built
- 1:01:07Speaker 3: on the idea that anything that men do to police
- 1:01:11Speaker 3: boundaries is illegitimate. It is patriarchal oppression. And this is
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: like basic feminism. Like the first thing or one of
- 1:01:22Speaker 3: the first things that feminists did, is they rendered illegitimate
- 1:01:25Speaker 3: the whole idea of men policing boundaries, like the basic
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: functions that men do to keep a civilization, to maintain
- 1:01:34Speaker 3: it and to make sure that it can continue, so
- 1:01:38Speaker 3: policing immigration enforcement audit like financial audits like and basically
- 1:01:49Speaker 3: anything that you could see men establishing a boundary and
- 1:01:53Speaker 3: maintaining it and judging people not buy on what they need,
- 1:01:58Speaker 3: but by what they are doing, wing right their behavior,
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: and whether or not it lives up to the kind
- 1:02:04Speaker 3: of standard necessary for us to have things like peaceful societies,
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: you know, societies that can have social programs without them
- 1:02:14Speaker 3: being overloaded by individuals who are going into the system
- 1:02:21Speaker 3: unfairly and without properly, you know, like they haven't gone
- 1:02:25Speaker 3: through the system, right, So all of this stuff is
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: stuff that men do. Men tend to do, is they
- 1:02:31Speaker 3: gauge in altruistic policing in order to maintain the structures
- 1:02:37Speaker 3: necessary to keep a society working. And what feminism has
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: done is it has said that that policing is patriarchal control, right,
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: and it's all suspect as patriarchal control. So any policing
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: around meritocracy or external standards and expectation is actually patriarchal control. Police,
- 1:02:58Speaker 3: immigration enforcement, financial audits. Hell, even grammar is patriarchal control
- 1:03:05Speaker 3: because it's an external standard that people are being held to,
- 1:03:08Speaker 3: and it's distributing resources and punishment based on that external
- 1:03:11Speaker 3: standard of merit rather than the way women want it
- 1:03:15Speaker 3: to be or naturally feel like it should be, which
- 1:03:17Speaker 3: is distribution based on need, okay, and punishment based on
- 1:03:21Speaker 3: whether or not you are in the group or out
- 1:03:23Speaker 3: the outside of the group. And when I say punishment,
- 1:03:26Speaker 3: I mean lethal enforcement. So if you're outside of the group,
- 1:03:29Speaker 3: you are subject to being killed or whatever else. Right,
- 1:03:33Speaker 3: So that's that's where that is coming from. And when
- 1:03:36Speaker 3: you have a situation where you have all of these
- 1:03:38Speaker 3: people who are basically saying that it is illegitimate to
- 1:03:43Speaker 3: police things like immigration police, things like crime police, things
- 1:03:47Speaker 3: like bureaucratic graft police, things like grammar like, you basically
- 1:03:52Speaker 3: are creating a situation where you have no oversight, and
- 1:03:55Speaker 3: then you construct this this cancer mass mass that the
- 1:04:02Speaker 3: immune system can't get into and prevent excesses, theft, violence,
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: and all of this other stuff. They can't prevent these
- 1:04:16Speaker 3: failures of living up to this, these meritocracies that are
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: required for the running of a society. I'm gonna I'm
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: gonna take a big brief break, brief brief break, and
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: let Brian tell me if I'm making any sense.
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: I I mean, I was struggling a little bit following,
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: but I know, I know what you're you're getting at.
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: I mean, it is essentially pushing back against a masculine
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: way of organizing society, which is one that has boundaries
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: and rules and laws and they exist to protect people
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: and keep things moving in a harmonious way. And and
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: feminists have reframed all of that to be patriarchal oppression
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: because everything men build is bad because it's men that
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: built it, and so you essentially create an atmosphere that
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: wants to rebel against it. And I think it just
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: to add to that too, I think it's useful for
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: actual revolutionaries that actually want to overthrow the government and
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: tear everything down, which we have always had in our
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: midst and they just use this narrative to get that.
- 1:05:29Speaker 2: Now.
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: I don't think that every woman who's out there, you know,
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: putting their body in the path of ice vehicles, is
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: like a revolutionary in the sense that they know what
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: they're actually driving towards. But that's the beauty of this
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: is that you can emotionally possess or emotionally capture enough
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: people to get them to act on this and make
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: them feel like they're doing a great heroic thing like
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: they are you know, the resistance, like they are, Yeah,
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: like they're fighting against the mp Hire from Star Wars,
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: like they're fighting against Voldemort, you know. And they will
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: do it because they want they want that, and it's
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: it's all it is to satisfy their own.
- 1:06:13Speaker 2: Vanity, their own vanglory, and their ego.
- 1:06:17Speaker 3: Well it's also because like Marshall mccluan says, people without
- 1:06:21Speaker 3: an identity when you strip like an identity, so the
- 1:06:26Speaker 3: mask and the male and female identity, and you strip
- 1:06:28Speaker 3: it because you've constructed a framework in which men are
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: oppressors and women are the oppressed, which is neither identity
- 1:06:36Speaker 3: is something you want to be. So you don't construct
- 1:06:40Speaker 3: men and women as having unique strength or weaknesses and
- 1:06:44Speaker 3: unique ways that they help each other and potentially hinder
- 1:06:48Speaker 3: each other. You know, you actually constructed in the most
- 1:06:51Speaker 3: toxic way possible. You create generations of people who don't
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: want to be those things, who don't have an identity
- 1:06:58Speaker 3: as a result of something that's really fun, fundamental and
- 1:07:00Speaker 3: almost like transcendent. Like you know, the sex that we
- 1:07:04Speaker 3: are born as is not something selected by human society.
- 1:07:08Speaker 3: It's something selected by biology and evolution. That is, our
- 1:07:12Speaker 3: forces that are way beyond us or God, whatever you
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: want to say, and they and that when we come
- 1:07:17Speaker 3: together we produce life. That's transcendence. And that's tying our
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: identities to something that goes well beyond the state or
- 1:07:28Speaker 3: the nation or any of these multiplicity of identities that
- 1:07:32Speaker 3: we've invented. That's tying it to something that it's bigger
- 1:07:36Speaker 3: than all of us, right, And because we're denied that,
- 1:07:40Speaker 3: we become identityless, we become anchorless, and then we become,
- 1:07:47Speaker 3: as Michael mccluhan said, Marshall McLuhan said, people without identities
- 1:07:52Speaker 3: seek belonging or a sense of belonging through violence. So
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: you strip people of their identity of nature, comfort in
- 1:08:01Speaker 3: their own skin, and then you give them an identity
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: as a holy warrior against patriarchy, which is also a
- 1:08:08Speaker 3: holy warrior against all the things that men do to
- 1:08:12Speaker 3: maintain societies. That's policing, that's auditing, that's immigration enforcement. And
- 1:08:18Speaker 3: then there you go. You have a you have a
- 1:08:21Speaker 3: zealot army at call whenever you want, and against any
- 1:08:28Speaker 3: kind of oversight. So if you're somebody, for example, if
- 1:08:31Speaker 3: you are a bureaucrat who wants to open up a
- 1:08:34Speaker 3: nice fat vein of fraud and live off it for
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: the rest of your life, then you're going to encourage this.
- 1:08:40Speaker 3: You're gonna and you're going to want a You're going
- 1:08:44Speaker 3: to want a narrative that oversight itself is illegitimate, that
- 1:08:49Speaker 3: the expectations that people be judged by their actions and
- 1:08:53Speaker 3: their behaviors and not their needs is illegitimate. And that's
- 1:08:57Speaker 3: the other thing, like it's this is women saying, and
- 1:09:01Speaker 3: it's it's mostly women. Let's be honest that it is
- 1:09:05Speaker 3: illegitimate to judge people based on their behaviors to a
- 1:09:10Speaker 3: standard and not based on their needs. Right, So if
- 1:09:15Speaker 3: you choose to operate in that male toolkit, you are
- 1:09:21Speaker 3: now illegitimate, and you are now potentially a justified target
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: for violence essentially, but again, very beneficial narrative for anybody
- 1:09:32Speaker 3: who wants to evade being being judged or held account right,
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: So how the script worked works on whistleblowers, protest leaders
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: and allied commentators frame themselves as standing up to fascist
- 1:09:46Speaker 3: ice attacks on our cities and call for getting rid
- 1:09:49Speaker 3: of those thugs while presenting their own side. Is structurally
- 1:09:51Speaker 3: and capable of abuse. Once that frame is in place,
- 1:09:55Speaker 3: anyone who points to protests or violence or graft hotels,
- 1:09:57Speaker 3: storming fireworks and officers swarming journal cars or the church
- 1:10:01Speaker 3: incursion is easily cast with siding with fascism or defending patriarchy,
- 1:10:06Speaker 3: because you're defending holding people accountable, which is evil according
- 1:10:12Speaker 3: to feminism. That is your whistleblower, That is the whistleblower
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: to Nazi pipeline raise concerns about theft, physical intimidation or
- 1:10:20Speaker 3: diversion of funds, and the narrative machine relabels you a
- 1:10:22Speaker 3: fascist sympathizer because you're supporting judging people by external standards
- 1:10:27Speaker 3: and merit, which is mail coded, which is fascist adjacent
- 1:10:32Speaker 3: case study face ICE protests as procedural immunity. Protesters storming cities.
- 1:10:39Speaker 3: Church in Saint Paul targeted a pastor they believed headed
- 1:10:43Speaker 3: also has the local ICE field office disrupting worship with
- 1:10:46Speaker 3: ICE out and Justice for Renee Good. The Department of
- 1:10:52Speaker 3: Justice is now probing for potential civil rights violations against congregants.
- 1:10:57Speaker 3: Against congregants, I didn't even know that, okay. Within the
- 1:11:00Speaker 3: activist narrative, that's something that guys look into that because
- 1:11:04Speaker 3: if it's against the congregants, they were the ones who
- 1:11:07Speaker 3: were attacked, so they could be wrong. But whatever. Within
- 1:11:11Speaker 3: the activist narrative, this was reframed as righteous anti fascist action.
- 1:11:15Speaker 3: Yet it functionally normalizes invading private institutions and religious services
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: whenever someone is perceived as in lined with enforcement, erasing
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: any boundary between political grievance and direct coercion, well, of course,
- 1:11:30Speaker 3: I mean it's we've we Apparently this side can justify
- 1:11:34Speaker 3: killing people for disagreeing. Similarly, the swarming of Nick Sorter's car,
- 1:11:38Speaker 3: jumping on the hood, alleged camera theft, dragging incident are
- 1:11:42Speaker 3: justified or downplayed because he's coded as a Nazi Nazi
- 1:11:45Speaker 3: adjacent influencer, not as a civilian or journalist with rights.
- 1:11:50Speaker 3: And as we can see, this, this category, this black
- 1:11:54Speaker 3: category of Nazi adjacent or Ice adjacent, you know, it
- 1:12:00Speaker 3: floats around and it coalesces on a particular demographic where
- 1:12:06Speaker 3: graft and theft hide behind the omnipresent fascism language is
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: a concrete material struggle. Non governmental organizations, advocacy groups, and
- 1:12:16Speaker 3: local political actors benefit from expanded budgets, contracts, and influence
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: tied to managing perpetual crisis around ice and immigration. And
- 1:12:25Speaker 3: in this particular case, they also benefit from all of
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: the fraud that's being discovered in Minnesota, the fraud around
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: food programs for kids, autism programs, daycare programs, care of
- 1:12:42Speaker 3: your own relative programs. All right, So labeling scrutiny of
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: these flow, these flows, is punching down or supporting fascist
- 1:12:52Speaker 3: ice shields bureaucratics and non bureaucratic and nonprofit graph from
- 1:12:57Speaker 3: normal auditing, anyone who asks where's the money going, who
- 1:13:00Speaker 3: is actually getting hurt, and who's getting paid can be
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: folded into the fascist patriarchy, conspiracy or category. All right,
- 1:13:09Speaker 3: So how the men's rights lens sharpens all of this?
- 1:13:12Speaker 3: From a men's rights perspective, the pattern is familiar. The
- 1:13:15Speaker 3: moral vocabulary of safety and protection is used to justify,
- 1:13:19Speaker 3: justify asymmetric asymmetrical power. Here are the power of activist
- 1:13:23Speaker 3: networks and bureaucracies, while male coded roles policing, boundary setting,
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: whistle blowing are pathologized as oppressive. And now it's just
- 1:13:32Speaker 3: men who are being pathologized as oppressive or targets or
- 1:13:40Speaker 3: justified targets. The Ice situation shows that when men in enforcement,
- 1:13:45Speaker 3: or even male whistleblowers try to stop concrete harms, physical attacks,
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: property destruction, financial fraud, they are not evaluated on facts,
- 1:13:52Speaker 3: but whether their actions threaten a patronage ecosystem that survives
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: by branding all constraint as fascist. So, once we set
- 1:14:01Speaker 3: in place the feminist assertion that oversight is masculine, masculinity
- 1:14:07Speaker 3: is fascist adjacent and any kind of opposition to that
- 1:14:12Speaker 3: is smashing patriarchy. You construct a system where bad actors
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: operate with impunity because they can code any kind of enforcement.
- 1:14:22Speaker 3: The any kind of enforcement has to has to deal
- 1:14:26Speaker 3: with being prejudged as patriarchy, and we all know it's patriarchy.
- 1:14:34Speaker 3: Fuck face. Frame this way. Stop theft Nazi is not
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: a joke line. Stopping theft makes you a Nazi is
- 1:14:43Speaker 3: not a joke line. It's a concise description of how
- 1:14:46Speaker 3: the current ICE protest discourse turns any attempt to police
- 1:14:49Speaker 3: behavior or audit systems into evidence of patriarchal fascism, while
- 1:14:53Speaker 3: leaving the underlying graft and violence structurally protected. So that's
- 1:14:59Speaker 3: the ultimate thing. This isn't really about ethics or helping people.
- 1:15:05Speaker 3: It's about using a narrative to get the heat off
- 1:15:11Speaker 3: your back so you can continue to operate your criminal
- 1:15:14Speaker 3: schemes without oversight. All right, So here's a rundown of
- 1:15:20Speaker 3: the allegations against the Democratic politicians and bureaucrats in Minnesota,
- 1:15:27Speaker 3: Governor Tim Waltz and Mayor Jacob Fray Department of Justice obstruction.
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: The US Department of Justice is opened a criminal probe
- 1:15:37Speaker 3: into whether Waltz and Frey obstructed federal immigration enforcement through
- 1:15:41Speaker 3: their public statements, potentially violating eighteen USC. Three seven to
- 1:15:47Speaker 3: two conspiracy to impede federal officers via force, intimidation and threats.
- 1:15:51Speaker 3: Waltz labeled ICE a modern day gestapo. Frey called for
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: ICE agents to be removed from Minneapolis and described the
- 1:15:58Speaker 3: federal presence as an occupy hind force that has quite
- 1:16:01Speaker 3: literally invaded our city. DHS accused three Democratic Minnesota lawmakers
- 1:16:07Speaker 3: of leading protests to an ICE facility with the explicit
- 1:16:10Speaker 3: goal of hunting down ICE officers. Fran Waltz called the
- 1:16:14Speaker 3: investigation politically motivated intimidation meant to silence criticism of federal operations.
- 1:16:20Speaker 3: All right, so republic Representative, Oh god, I'm going to
- 1:16:25Speaker 3: screw this name up Ilhan Omar ilharn omarilh Omar Fraud
- 1:16:33Speaker 3: Fraud graft Associations, Trump and Republican officials have repeatedly tied
- 1:16:38Speaker 3: OMAR to the massive fraud scandal in Minnesota's social programs,
- 1:16:42Speaker 3: particularly involving Somali American communities. Omar has called the framing
- 1:16:48Speaker 3: a conspiracy theory and accused authorities of using the fraud
- 1:16:51Speaker 3: investigation to intimidate intimidate immigrant neighborhoods. She claims Democrats do
- 1:16:57Speaker 3: not condone this fraud and corruption. Trump as publicly questioned
- 1:17:01Speaker 3: or immigration stance and accused her of being connected to
- 1:17:03Speaker 3: scammers calling for deportation. Okay, this is the underlying fraud
- 1:17:08Speaker 3: Feeding our Future and daycare child nutrition schemes. Federal prosecutors
- 1:17:12Speaker 3: have charged ninety two individuals in a two hundred and
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: fifty to three hundred million fraud scheme tied to the
- 1:17:20Speaker 3: nonprofit Feeding Our Future, with fifty one plus convictions so far.
- 1:17:24Speaker 3: Eighty two of those charged or Somali American, according to
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: the US Attorney's Office. Broader estimates suggest fraud losses across
- 1:17:32Speaker 3: Minnesota's social programs since eight twenty eighteen could exceed one billion,
- 1:17:38Speaker 3: including childcare subsidies and federal nutrition aid. A federal prosecutor
- 1:17:43Speaker 3: says that nearly half of the eighteen buildian in federal
- 1:17:46Speaker 3: aid Minnesota received across eleven programs since twenty twenty one
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: may have been misused. The Trump administration is froze childcare
- 1:17:56Speaker 3: funding for Minnesota, et cetera. Okay, so here's the political dynamic.
- 1:18:01Speaker 3: Democratic leaders frame iceces enforcement as fascism and an invasion,
- 1:18:06Speaker 3: while critics allege the rhetoric shields bureaucratic graph from oversight,
- 1:18:10Speaker 3: So they're not just declaring ICE as fascism, they're also
- 1:18:15Speaker 3: basically declaring the financial oversight and what's going on in
- 1:18:19Speaker 3: Minnesota as fascism. Calls for accountability or audit auditing of
- 1:18:24Speaker 3: fraud ridden programs get folded into the fascist ICE narrative,
- 1:18:28Speaker 3: allowing the question where did the money go to be
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: dismissed as racist targeting of immigrant group communities. And again
- 1:18:36Speaker 3: this is women's language. What does that mean? Racist targeting?
- 1:18:41Speaker 3: It means that you are holding they're saying you are
- 1:18:44Speaker 3: holding a vulnerable group to a moral standard. That's what
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: it means. And you're not supposed to do that. You're
- 1:18:50Speaker 3: only supposed to give vulnerable groups resources. And that whole
- 1:18:54Speaker 3: formulation works if you're talking about infants. It doesn't work
- 1:18:58Speaker 3: when you're talking about adults who need to be held
- 1:19:00Speaker 3: to adult standards of ethical comportment. Anyone, whether federal agents, journalists,
- 1:19:06Speaker 3: or whistleblowers, who presses on the fraud angle, risks being
- 1:19:10Speaker 3: labeled as aligned with gestapo tactics or patriarchal oppression. All right,
- 1:19:15Speaker 3: so what's the deal on Walt's stepping down Walls stepping down.
- 1:19:20Speaker 3: Walts is not stepping okay, according to this is not
- 1:19:24Speaker 3: stepping down from office. But he has ended his twenty
- 1:19:26Speaker 3: twenty three reelection bid under heavy political investigation and pressure
- 1:19:31Speaker 3: over it.
- 1:19:33Speaker 2: Yes, he's not stepping down. He's just not running next
- 1:19:35Speaker 2: next time.
- 1:19:36Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I know. Welfare fraud scandal. The evidence
- 1:19:39Speaker 3: on him is about oversight failure and tolerated corruption, not
- 1:19:43Speaker 3: approved personal kickback scheme. So it's not that he is
- 1:19:49Speaker 3: necessarily implicated in the fraud. It's thus that somehow this
- 1:19:55Speaker 3: gigantic Katamari ball of grass just appeared under his watch.
- 1:20:03Speaker 3: What Waltz has actually done. In early January twenty twenty six,
- 1:20:07Speaker 3: Waltz announced he would not seek a third term. He
- 1:20:10Speaker 3: has refused to resign and said he will serve out
- 1:20:12Speaker 3: his term, arguing that stepping out of the race lets
- 1:20:15Speaker 3: him focused on defending the people of Minnesota against criminals
- 1:20:19Speaker 3: who prey on our generosity. What the hell does that mean?
- 1:20:22Speaker 3: Evidence and allegation about fraud under his watch. Federal and
- 1:20:26Speaker 3: state investigators describe one of the largest social services fraud
- 1:20:30Speaker 3: scandals in Minnesota history, involving billions and mins used medicaid
- 1:20:34Speaker 3: and welfare funds, and high profile cases like the Feeding
- 1:20:37Speaker 3: Our Future scheme. A House Oversight hearing summary says Minnesota's
- 1:20:43Speaker 3: Department of Human Services intentionally backdated documents and paid nearly
- 1:20:48Speaker 3: six hundred and eighty thousand to a guarantee with no
- 1:20:53Speaker 3: evidence of work done and that the state employee approved it,
- 1:20:56Speaker 3: then went to work for that same guarantee. Cited as
- 1:20:59Speaker 3: rampant corruption under Governor Tim Waltz's watch, it's hard to
- 1:21:04Speaker 3: argue that you weren't aware of this. GP witnesses told
- 1:21:09Speaker 3: Congress that Waltz was aware of widespread taxpayer fraud for years,
- 1:21:13Speaker 3: but it failed to intervene, and Republicans argue he and
- 1:21:16Speaker 3: Attorney General Keith Ellison ignored repeated red flags and some
- 1:21:20Speaker 3: mally linked nonprofits and daycare benefits programs and response CMS
- 1:21:24Speaker 3: has paused MEIG and we already covered that this pause
- 1:21:26Speaker 3: Medicaid payments to fourteen Minnesota programs, all right, So he's
- 1:21:32Speaker 3: not personally accused. It's just that he has been so
- 1:21:37Speaker 3: negligent in his duties and making sure that this didn't
- 1:21:41Speaker 3: happen under his watch. And it's just like anybody who
- 1:21:47Speaker 3: is looking at this and Ashley looking at what's going on.
- 1:21:52Speaker 3: I know there's a bunch of you who are like,
- 1:21:53Speaker 3: oh my god, were anti Ice and whatever? But have
- 1:21:57Speaker 3: you ever stopped and asked yourself. This is a guy
- 1:22:01Speaker 3: who is most likely responsible for incredible negligence under his watch,
- 1:22:08Speaker 3: and he has thrown this out, this, this whole, this
- 1:22:11Speaker 3: whole threat narrative around Ice while under investigation, And you
- 1:22:16Speaker 3: don't find that a little bit suspicious, right, I mean,
- 1:22:20Speaker 3: that's just him. What about all of the rest of
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: these bureaucrats that are responsible for this gigantic rats nest
- 1:22:28Speaker 3: of graft and them throwing out this threat narrative around
- 1:22:32Speaker 3: Ice and federal investigations while they're being investigated for stealing
- 1:22:37Speaker 3: from Minnesotan's stealing from American people, Like you don't find
- 1:22:41Speaker 3: that rather convenient. You don't find it convenient that these
- 1:22:45Speaker 3: people are invoking this narrative that any kind of oversight
- 1:22:49Speaker 3: is patriarchal and fascist adjacent, just as the oversight is
- 1:22:54Speaker 3: about to hit them, Like, none of you are none
- 1:22:57Speaker 3: of you are like, hmm, that seems really convenient. None
- 1:23:01Speaker 3: of you who support or against Ice, right, none of
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: you are thinking, Wow, that's that's quite the coincidence. Do
- 1:23:10Speaker 3: you get what I'm saying, Brian.
- 1:23:12Speaker 2: Of course.
- 1:23:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: Well, you know, like this kind of inefficient, if not
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: straight up corrupt way of running your government and people
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: if you, if you, it essentially invites this kind of
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: thing like it invites corruption, it invites criminal criminality, which
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: is what I think happened. There were people who exploited this,
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: and you know, there was a combination of people who
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: had something. Again, maybe the politicians were hoping to get
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: get votes, maybe the scammers were hoping to get paid.
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: Maybe everybody was hoping to get paid.
- 1:23:51Speaker 2: And it looks like.
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: The FEDS are, you know, looking into it and it
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: may get exposed. I don't know, but I think that
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: and it's a convenient cover as well to be like, no, no, no,
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: this isn't We're not stealing from the taxpayer, we're not
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: engaging in criminal activity, We're not letting in a bunch
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: of like illegal people so we can get their votes.
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: What's actually happening is white supremacy and patriarchy, and you
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: have to stop it. And who listens to it, who's
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: out there protesting, who went out there and said, OMG,
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: you know, I have to protect the Somalis because or
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: not even that, like they were going after the criminals.
- 1:24:34Speaker 2: There's another thing too, that's very important. The only reason
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: why the Trump administration.
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: Just is hasn't sent in tanks, which I don't think
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: is a good idea because we don't want more innocent
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: lives lost. But the making and why is because he's
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: supposed to work with the local governments to get this
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: stuff done. Like a lot of the states, most of
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: them are working with him. They're like, Okay, yeah, we'll
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: help you round up the illegals, right. They want them
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: out of there. They want Trendy Baragua sent back. They
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: want the MS thirteen gangs. You know these are they're
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: going after the violent felons. Okay, that that's what they're
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: That's where they are now. Like eventually we'd like to
- 1:25:12Speaker 1: get all the illegals out, but we know that that's
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: like probably an unrealistic task, but as many as we can.
- 1:25:18Speaker 2: The border is effectively closed.
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: A bunch of countries can't enter, like mostly not not
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: like Canada, but like a lot of.
- 1:25:24Speaker 3: Like well countries that are I can't enter.
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: Oh you might be able to, you just haven't tried yet.
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: But but you know, there's a lot that's been done.
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: But the the truth is is that these people are
- 1:25:37Speaker 1: supposed to be working with us. So if there's an insurrection,
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: insurrection actors passed, it's gonna be because Minneapolis is because
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: they can't they can't say we're sorry, they can't say
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: we were wrong. They're incapable of doing all that. And
- 1:25:52Speaker 1: I think a lot of it has to do with
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: the fact that they're like, yeah, if they find out
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: what what's been going on, a lot of people are
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: gonna go to jail. So we're gonna basically make this
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: into a much bigger thing.
- 1:26:03Speaker 2: And it's a distraction. It's a distraction from all of
- 1:26:06Speaker 2: the all of this other stuff.
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: But unfortunately, a lot of these protesters, and I think
- 1:26:12Speaker 1: that there's a lot of people who are paid, they're
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: not there organically. They're there to create more chaos. They're
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: there to the to sort of like foster this stuff.
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: They are.
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: It's a distraction they're using and women are going along
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: with it, like.
- 1:26:27Speaker 3: I don't know if there's going along with it sphere. Yeah, Okay,
- 1:26:34Speaker 3: so why does walls walls benefit from weaponizing anti ice sentiment? Now?
- 1:26:41Speaker 3: Walls is under intense pressure. He dropped his reelection bid
- 1:26:45Speaker 3: admit revelations that Minnesota social services program programs some saw
- 1:26:50Speaker 3: some month saw some of the biggest fraud losses in
- 1:26:55Speaker 3: the country, and federal audits auditors found that the state
- 1:27:00Speaker 3: dedicaid agency in substantial non compliance. At the same time,
- 1:27:04Speaker 3: Trump's dj has opened an investigation into whether Waltz, Frey
- 1:27:08Speaker 3: and other Democrats impeded ICE operations and inflame protests. They've
- 1:27:12Speaker 3: accused of casting ICE as a gestapo and on occupying
- 1:27:14Speaker 3: force wild mobs confront agents. By framing ICE is a
- 1:27:18Speaker 3: fascist patriarchy and federal scrutiny is intimidation, Waltz can argue
- 1:27:22Speaker 3: that Washington is not targeting for him from allowing billions
- 1:27:26Speaker 3: in graft, but for standing up to Trump's war on
- 1:27:30Speaker 3: immigrants and descent, which is particularly egregious right, because what
- 1:27:36Speaker 3: I see happening is that these somalies have become a
- 1:27:39Speaker 3: shield for let's face it, once you get up above
- 1:27:42Speaker 3: the somalies, there's a bunch of pimping Karens and bureaucrats
- 1:27:51Speaker 3: who are making bank off of this situation. The more
- 1:27:56Speaker 3: public attention stays on ICE shootings, protests and gestopo language.
- 1:28:00Speaker 3: The less auction in there is for detailed discussions about
- 1:28:03Speaker 3: how state agencies under his watch backdated contracts paid out
- 1:28:08Speaker 3: hundreds of thousands with no documentation and let politically connected
- 1:28:11Speaker 3: nonprofits loop programs for years. All right, this is meaningful, guys.
- 1:28:17Speaker 3: This is why you won't have services for anyone if
- 1:28:21Speaker 3: you do not control this right, But instead the very
- 1:28:25Speaker 3: people who should be providing a whistleblower function are out
- 1:28:30Speaker 3: there harassing Ice. Right. If there is and I think
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: there is a legitimate position for oversight over these agencies,
- 1:28:42Speaker 3: over these bureaucratic then why aren't you actually doing that?
- 1:28:48Speaker 3: Like why aren't the people who are supposed to be
- 1:28:50Speaker 3: auditing where if things are moral, if the funds are
- 1:28:53Speaker 3: going where they need to go with for people who
- 1:28:55Speaker 3: have vulnerabilities, why aren't they doing that?
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: Like?
- 1:29:00Speaker 3: Why is the left out there fighting something that they
- 1:29:05Speaker 3: wouldn't be fighting if Obama was in office? These fraud
- 1:29:12Speaker 3: scandals okay For a narrative war point of view, Walts
- 1:29:16Speaker 3: versus fascist Ice is a much better story for him
- 1:29:18Speaker 3: than Walt's overseer of historically large welfare fraud. So escalating
- 1:29:23Speaker 3: anti Ice rhetoric right now is the rational damage control
- 1:29:26Speaker 3: within his coalition, And of course he can do it
- 1:29:29Speaker 3: because there's a whole generations of people who regard any
- 1:29:34Speaker 3: kind of oversight to be patriarchal oppression or racism, which
- 1:29:43Speaker 3: is basically the same thing, because you know, as we
- 1:29:46Speaker 3: all know, it's men when they judge things. The only
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: thing that comes out is some ism, not actual merit.
- 1:29:55Speaker 3: Are these fraud scandal Okay, these fraud scandals are not
- 1:29:58Speaker 3: restricted to Minnesota. It's probably why this controversy is erupting everywhere.
- 1:30:04Speaker 3: There are similar structural vulnerabilities nationwide. So we're probably looking
- 1:30:09Speaker 3: at like a nationwide network of these bureaucratic grafts, rats, nests,
- 1:30:15Speaker 3: all of which can mobilize these threat narratives around any
- 1:30:20Speaker 3: kind of oversight. And why can they mobilize these threat
- 1:30:23Speaker 3: narratives around any kind of oversight because for three generations
- 1:30:26Speaker 3: we have taught that men pay our evil oppressors, and
- 1:30:32Speaker 3: when men enforce boundaries, it's suspect congressional oversight. Hearings on
- 1:30:42Speaker 3: Waltz explicitly framed Minnesota as a case study, not an outlier,
- 1:30:46Speaker 3: arguing that lacks of verification captured agencies and politically protected
- 1:30:50Speaker 3: NGOs are common features of state run welfare systems, with
- 1:30:54Speaker 3: Minnesota just being the place where it got big enough
- 1:30:57Speaker 3: and ethnic patronage distense enough to explode publicly. Do you
- 1:31:01Speaker 3: really think these bureaucrats give a crap about the Somalis? Like,
- 1:31:05Speaker 3: have you noticed? I noticed that Osmond Gold picks up
- 1:31:09Speaker 3: on this. The usual suspects is what he called them.
- 1:31:12Speaker 3: So people will confront the Somali daycare centers to find
- 1:31:16Speaker 3: out if there's any actual children there, and then the
- 1:31:19Speaker 3: smalies will come out and they'll they'll mill right and
- 1:31:22Speaker 3: they'll just be sort of not really doing anything except
- 1:31:27Speaker 3: like mumbling, and then a Karen will swan in. Have
- 1:31:31Speaker 3: you notice this, Brian?
- 1:31:33Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 1:31:34Speaker 3: A Karen will will drive in, you know, and and
- 1:31:38Speaker 3: start labeling everything all this is what are you doing? What?
- 1:31:42Speaker 3: What is this? What is this you're doing? You're being racist, right,
- 1:31:47Speaker 3: you're you you're anti immigration rights in the and the
- 1:31:51Speaker 3: people who are investigating just want to make sure that
- 1:31:54Speaker 3: these acts, this money is actually going to what it's
- 1:31:56Speaker 3: being said that it's going to. And and this the Karen,
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: the pimp, Karen, I'll call him, I'll call her, will
- 1:32:04Speaker 3: come in and start reframing the investigation as basically some
- 1:32:09Speaker 3: form of fascism, some form of people judging something or
- 1:32:14Speaker 3: the behavior of these Somalies not by their need but
- 1:32:18Speaker 3: by their ethic, like the standards the behavior that they've
- 1:32:22Speaker 3: engaged him, which is not because the thing is the
- 1:32:27Speaker 3: narrative about bringing in Somalis and giving them all this money.
- 1:32:33Speaker 3: It is making a lot of people a lot of money.
- 1:32:36Speaker 3: I'm gonna say that, and it's not necessarily the Somalis.
- 1:32:40Speaker 3: Like people focus on that. But if you look one
- 1:32:43Speaker 3: layer up, you see the Karens. You know, the Karen layer.
- 1:32:46Speaker 3: You have the Karen layer, and they are the shield.
- 1:32:49Speaker 3: They're the ones who go out and explain how any
- 1:32:52Speaker 3: kind of insight oversight is, you know, fascist adjacent is
- 1:32:57Speaker 3: patriarchal oppression is fascist adjacent. They try out all of
- 1:33:01Speaker 3: the rhetoric that shields the bureaucratic graft a level up
- 1:33:05Speaker 3: from them. And though that's probably where you're seeing the
- 1:33:08Speaker 3: real money being made. Okay, so I said, sorry, the
- 1:33:15Speaker 3: Somali immigrants are being used as immigrants as a shield
- 1:33:20Speaker 3: for their own gains. Okay, So there is there are
- 1:33:24Speaker 3: publicly like there's people who are saying this as well,
- 1:33:27Speaker 3: Samali communities provide the moral shield and headcount. The real
- 1:33:31Speaker 3: winners are the political NGO and business network skimming the money.
- 1:33:36Speaker 3: How the Somali shield works in the major Minnesota case
- 1:33:40Speaker 3: is a high proportion of defendants and intermediaries there's Somali
- 1:33:43Speaker 3: or Somali American, especially around feeding our future and related
- 1:33:47Speaker 3: daycare nutrition schemes. Public rhetoric from some Democratic officials and
- 1:33:51Speaker 3: advocates has leaned on protecting Somali communities from racist targeting.
- 1:33:56Speaker 3: And when you hear racist targeting once again, what it
- 1:33:59Speaker 3: means is judging them by merit instead of by vulnerability,
- 1:34:03Speaker 3: judging them by the things that men hold more important
- 1:34:08Speaker 3: rather than by the things that women hold more important
- 1:34:12Speaker 3: when fraud is investigated, implying that aggressive audits equals xenophobia.
- 1:34:17Speaker 3: So they these bureaucrats who pure I don't even want
- 1:34:21Speaker 3: to these fraudsters, brought in a vulnerable group, probably legitimately vulnerable,
- 1:34:28Speaker 3: use them to front their schemes because I don't think
- 1:34:31Speaker 3: the Somalies thought this up. No offense to the Somalis,
- 1:34:35Speaker 3: but they're very tribal people and you know this probably
- 1:34:38Speaker 3: doesn't occur to them. So they were brought in to
- 1:34:41Speaker 3: front these schemes by these people specifically so they could
- 1:34:47Speaker 3: defend themselves from oversight, because then they could frame the
- 1:34:51Speaker 3: oversight as fascist because we and of course fascist is
- 1:34:57Speaker 3: male coded. The framing makes it easy to collapse two
- 1:35:02Speaker 3: very different things into one. Legitimate immigrants using programs intended.
- 1:35:07Speaker 3: I'm sure they exist, politically connected operators offering from those
- 1:35:11Speaker 3: communities but tied to state, not from tied into state,
- 1:35:15Speaker 3: and NGIO leadership fabricating meal counts, fake kids and shell
- 1:35:19Speaker 3: nonprofits to siphon funds. Right, So you got legitimate immigrants,
- 1:35:26Speaker 3: then you've got the ones who are cheating, and then
- 1:35:28Speaker 3: you've got the bureaucrats on top of that who are
- 1:35:30Speaker 3: cheating even more who actually benefits. Federal charging documents and
- 1:35:37Speaker 3: oversight hearings describe multi million dollar properties, luxury cars, and
- 1:35:43Speaker 3: overseas transfers person purchased by the alleged ring leaders money
- 1:35:47Speaker 3: that was supposed to feed children or support low income families.
- 1:35:50Speaker 3: House Oversight accuses Waltz era agencies of rubber stamping grants,
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: backdating approvals, and rehiring people in the NGOs they just
- 1:35:58Speaker 3: paid improperly, which suggests an embedded class of administrators, lawyers, consultants,
- 1:36:03Speaker 3: and nonprofit executives as the main winners. So you got
- 1:36:07Speaker 3: the smally immigrants right as the shield. You got the
- 1:36:12Speaker 3: Karens as your gestapo that prevents the oversight from going
- 1:36:17Speaker 3: past the among because you need the two. Right, you
- 1:36:19Speaker 3: got the small, You got the vulnerable people, and then
- 1:36:22Speaker 3: you got the Karens saying you're hurting right, you can't,
- 1:36:27Speaker 3: you can't do that. And then on top of that,
- 1:36:30Speaker 3: you got the entire frickin' ecosystem of bureaucrats siphoning from
- 1:36:36Speaker 3: the taxpayer. Ordinary Somali residents meanwhile, mostly get the stigma
- 1:36:41Speaker 3: and blowgout. That's the other thing. There probably are some
- 1:36:44Speaker 3: Somalis who are here legitimately, right, they're also going to
- 1:36:49Speaker 3: get this blowback. Do you think the people who are
- 1:36:51Speaker 3: exploiting them give a crap. No, they're there to provide
- 1:36:56Speaker 3: a human shield, and that's it. They don't give a
- 1:37:00Speaker 3: crap about them. They don't give a crap about the
- 1:37:03Speaker 3: Smalies who emigrated legitimately, are presuing pursuing legitimate businesses, are
- 1:37:09Speaker 3: just trying to raise their families. Aren't part of this graft?
- 1:37:12Speaker 3: Who are also going to be targeted by this it
- 1:37:15Speaker 3: has That's how it works. Generally, people thinking categories, they
- 1:37:19Speaker 3: don't care, they don't give a crap. In fact, these
- 1:37:23Speaker 3: somalies who would be like, oh, I don't know, I
- 1:37:25Speaker 3: don't want to be associated with that. I think those
- 1:37:27Speaker 3: are bad people. These individuals who are part of the
- 1:37:31Speaker 3: rat's nest of bureaucratic graft, would probably regard those somalies
- 1:37:35Speaker 3: as being mouthpieces of the patriarchy, mouthpieces of fascism. Because
- 1:37:42Speaker 3: that's how it works. You know that, Brian, If any
- 1:37:46Speaker 3: if anybody of the category that they are supposedly defending
- 1:37:50Speaker 3: speaks out against them, they automatically revoke their right to
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: be defended and get folded into the evil empire that
- 1:37:58Speaker 3: needs to be destroyed.
- 1:38:00Speaker 6: Mm hmm.
- 1:38:02Speaker 3: How this ties into anti ice ICE narratives. When iceer
- 1:38:06Speaker 3: federal auditors move in, local actors can invoke Trump's wars
- 1:38:10Speaker 3: on Somali's or tax on immigrants, which is again the
- 1:38:15Speaker 3: people ICE, what are they doing. They're holding people to
- 1:38:19Speaker 3: standards that men hold people to, rather than delivering or
- 1:38:24Speaker 3: delivering them, delivering them things according to the needs like
- 1:38:28Speaker 3: women do. So it's a it's a fight between of
- 1:38:33Speaker 3: male male kind of ethical system and a female system
- 1:38:38Speaker 3: based on two from from those who what is the
- 1:38:44Speaker 3: communist statement? Uh?
- 1:38:46Speaker 1: From for those we are you talking about, like those
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: with their ability, according to those according to their needs
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: something like.
- 1:38:54Speaker 3: That, Yeah, like that, from those who produce to those
- 1:38:58Speaker 3: who need. Okay, all right, turn okay, to delegitimize the
- 1:39:03Speaker 3: operation advance. So they use this rhetoric to le delegitimize
- 1:39:08Speaker 3: the operation advance and also supercharge people to be aggressive
- 1:39:12Speaker 3: towards them, even if the targets are clearly clearly the
- 1:39:15Speaker 3: graft networks. So this whole passion play is to protect
- 1:39:22Speaker 3: a bunch of thieves that turns Somali communities into a
- 1:39:26Speaker 3: human shield. Criticism of corrupt intermediaries or demands for enforcement
- 1:39:30Speaker 3: can be reframed as hatred of Somalis themselves, which is
- 1:39:33Speaker 3: rhetorically powerful and politically useful for people sitting on the
- 1:39:36Speaker 3: money flow. All right, and then yeah, so what we
- 1:39:43Speaker 3: have is the Somalis who are the shield. We have
- 1:39:49Speaker 3: the Karens who are the gestapo, right and above that
- 1:39:53Speaker 3: we have the faceless bureaucratic graftsters who are sucking all
- 1:39:59Speaker 3: the money. This is this is I've seen this so
- 1:40:06Speaker 3: many freaking times over and over again. But anyway, I'm
- 1:40:09Speaker 3: gonna step off my podium and Brian, you can say
- 1:40:12Speaker 3: anything you want if you think I've mischaracterized something or
- 1:40:17Speaker 3: said something.
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: Wrong, well, I don't want to speak to the intentions
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: of any one group. They're all criminals as far as
- 1:40:24Speaker 1: I'm concerned, So we I say, we investigate and lock
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: up whoever.
- 1:40:29Speaker 2: Needs to be. But I think a lot of this
- 1:40:31Speaker 2: stuff is sort of like it's itself. It's self propelled, It.
- 1:40:39Speaker 1: Doesn't need like there's not a lot of parts you
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: have to move. You just put people in the right
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: position and like you know, and let things happen organically.
- 1:40:49Speaker 1: Like women, the Karens whatever you want to call them.
- 1:40:53Speaker 2: I don't really like Karen because it's kind of racially charged.
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: But the women are going to essentially become mother hens
- 1:41:03Speaker 1: to whatever the the the sort of fashionable, under underserved
- 1:41:12Speaker 1: group of the week is. And it just so happens
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: because of Nick Shurley exposing the fraud. It just so
- 1:41:19Speaker 1: happens to be the Somali fraud in Minneapolis. I don't
- 1:41:23Speaker 1: think that Somali's everywhere going to be catching flack. I
- 1:41:26Speaker 1: think that Ice is going to be very specific and focused.
- 1:41:29Speaker 2: We're going to go after the people who broke the law.
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: I know. And yeah, well you know, and I think
- 1:41:35Speaker 1: the other people, like regular Americans, may view them with suspicion.
- 1:41:39Speaker 1: I think it's deserved. Whatever earn it, earn your way
- 1:41:42Speaker 1: out of that. I don't have a lot of sympathy
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: Hols and I don't. It's a it's a the whole
- 1:41:48Speaker 1: country is a kleptocracy, like that, Somalia is a shithole.
- 1:41:52Speaker 2: That's why they're here. And I'm and I'm not saying
- 1:41:55Speaker 2: it's some some biological determinism, but that is the way
- 1:41:58Speaker 2: that it is. You know.
- 1:42:01Speaker 1: It's not like I don't know countries like Uganda or
- 1:42:04Speaker 1: Nigeria that seem to do a lot better. So I'm
- 1:42:07Speaker 1: not making a racial comment here. I think it's a
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: cultural problem at least. But my point is is that
- 1:42:14Speaker 1: I think that all you got to do is you
- 1:42:15Speaker 1: want to invite corruption. You bring in people from a
- 1:42:19Speaker 1: society that is known for, you know, scams, because that's
- 1:42:23Speaker 1: what they did to each other, because that's all they
- 1:42:24Speaker 1: knew in their own country, because it's so corrupt there.
- 1:42:28Speaker 1: And then you you have like you know, these sort
- 1:42:30Speaker 1: of like SJW women in the same place, and they'll
- 1:42:34Speaker 1: stand up for them, and yeah, you'll grift off of
- 1:42:36Speaker 1: it and they'll probably take the fall, while you know,
- 1:42:39Speaker 1: people that are more savvy or intelligent will, you know,
- 1:42:43Speaker 1: either get no consequences or at least they'll make the
- 1:42:46Speaker 1: most money. But everyone in this situation is is shit
- 1:42:50Speaker 1: as far as I'm concerned.
- 1:42:51Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I agree, Oh.
- 1:42:53Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree.
- 1:42:55Speaker 3: And like I said, there might be blowback to small
- 1:43:01Speaker 3: immigrants who are here legitimately maybe right, maybe they should
- 1:43:04Speaker 3: earn out of that. I'm just saying that it will exist,
- 1:43:07Speaker 3: and that is an unintended consequence, and these people don't
- 1:43:10Speaker 3: give a crap.
- 1:43:11Speaker 2: No, Yeah, that's what I meant, Okay, I mean, like
- 1:43:16Speaker 2: I said.
- 1:43:16Speaker 3: That, it's all about protecting their money scheme. All right,
- 1:43:23Speaker 3: So that was it.
- 1:43:28Speaker 2: I got a rumble rant here. I want to read
- 1:43:31Speaker 2: really quick, but I'm basically done too.
- 1:43:33Speaker 1: Nova Fan twenty one gave us a dollar and says,
- 1:43:36Speaker 1: I think I know the answer, but I'll ask just
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: in case. Given what happened to Germany in less than
- 1:43:41Speaker 1: ten years, why does over ten years of facts and
- 1:43:44Speaker 1: logic not working not justify might makes right. Well, I mean,
- 1:43:50Speaker 1: it will come down to force if we don't. But
- 1:43:53Speaker 1: I think we can use like reason to solve these issues.
- 1:43:58Speaker 2: Still.
- 1:43:59Speaker 1: I think that we want to. Most people want to,
- 1:44:01Speaker 1: because if it comes down to mic mates, right, that
- 1:44:03Speaker 1: doesn't that that doesn't make it moral.
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: M So yeah, yeah, I mean.
- 1:44:14Speaker 3: Well we have to get rid of the other. We
- 1:44:16Speaker 3: got to get rid of the idea that we have
- 1:44:20Speaker 3: to understand that the way men do things is not wrong, right,
- 1:44:27Speaker 3: That's that's a big thing that we need to remember.
- 1:44:30Speaker 3: So the way that men structure things to police boundaries
- 1:44:35Speaker 3: and expectations is absolutely vital for any kind of a
- 1:44:40Speaker 3: society worth living in. And if you're going to cast
- 1:44:43Speaker 3: them those behaviors as patriarchal or a fascist adjacent, then
- 1:44:49Speaker 3: you are going to construct a hellhole for yourselves, and
- 1:44:54Speaker 3: you are. And before you construct a hellhole for yourself,
- 1:44:57Speaker 3: you're going to be providing a lot of cover for
- 1:44:59Speaker 3: people who steal from you. And there are people in
- 1:45:03Speaker 3: the the voiced or the special Chat. Yeah, somebody is like,
- 1:45:09Speaker 3: you need to meet the grim Reaper.
- 1:45:12Speaker 2: Presumably people need to meet the reaper.
- 1:45:18Speaker 3: It just babbling blow aviation. Okay, you don't understand what
- 1:45:21Speaker 3: I'm tech talking about. Maybe that's on you more race baiting.
- 1:45:30Speaker 3: I love Ice, They're my heroes, you know, I don't
- 1:45:32Speaker 3: love Ice. I just recognize that they are function right,
- 1:45:38Speaker 3: and they are a legitimate function of a government that
- 1:45:42Speaker 3: wants to maintain of a country that wants to maintain
- 1:45:45Speaker 3: itself as a country. Anyway, Okay, I don't see anything
- 1:45:54Speaker 3: particularly interesting in the special chat. I'll see what's what's
- 1:45:57Speaker 3: happening in the main chat. Yeah, mulling around, mumbling. I
- 1:46:04Speaker 3: guess Jin was laughing at my characterization of the smallies,
- 1:46:08Speaker 3: and Albatross says the salamalies are probably just the long
- 1:46:11Speaker 3: for the ride. Yeah, I'm pretty sure they didn't develop
- 1:46:14Speaker 3: this idea. I mean, maybe what happened is, you know,
- 1:46:18Speaker 3: a bunch of ships sailed by white people's, you know,
- 1:46:24Speaker 3: showed up on their shore and we're just like, well,
- 1:46:26Speaker 3: why didn't you come into the hold here and we'll
- 1:46:29Speaker 3: take you to the US and use you in for
- 1:46:32Speaker 3: our schemes. Okay, I've seen a couple so night so
- 1:46:39Speaker 3: motorcyclist says, I've seen a couple legal Somalis speak out,
- 1:46:42Speaker 3: but they are the extremely tiny minority. Yes, because they're
- 1:46:45Speaker 3: not useful to these people, so they probably didn't get
- 1:46:50Speaker 3: a fast track to like the This is the other
- 1:46:54Speaker 3: thing when when your country is full of this kind
- 1:46:56Speaker 3: of greed, if fax tracks criminals in other in order
- 1:47:02Speaker 3: to front these schemes. M hm, Mia is locked in. Yep, yeah, yeah,
- 1:47:13Speaker 3: she's she's uh, yeah, she's uh, she's locked in. I
- 1:47:17Speaker 3: have to figure out how to because she likes to
- 1:47:19Speaker 3: stand here. She's standing in front of my light. So
- 1:47:22Speaker 3: I got to figure out how to keep her here
- 1:47:24Speaker 3: in her spot because she likes this spot, but not
- 1:47:26Speaker 3: have her be in front of my light so that
- 1:47:30Speaker 3: she's throwing a shadow on me and turning me into
- 1:47:33Speaker 3: a void. Yeah, it's not that bad, but you know,
- 1:47:37Speaker 3: it's a little it's a little bit of a problem.
- 1:47:39Speaker 3: But she but she she reminds me of the things
- 1:47:42Speaker 3: that matter, you know, not not being bitten, I guess
- 1:47:49Speaker 3: because I haven't fed her in the last twenty minutes.
- 1:47:52Speaker 3: All right. So yeah, that's that's what I have to
- 1:47:57Speaker 3: say about this. If you would like to send us
