We examine the intricate web of symbolism in David Lynch's work and its resonance with today's global political and economic landscape. We kick off with a playful discussion on social media's reactions to celebrity deaths and the concept of 'detournement'—the art of subverting mainstream symbols to convey opposing messages. This sets the stage for a deeper dive into the inversion of meanings that characterize our fast-paced world.
(00:00:00) Introduction and Social Media Reflections
(00:03:05) David Lynch and Symbolism
(00:06:13) Conspiracy Theories and 9/11
(00:09:56) Time Perception and Cultural Shifts

We look into the nuances of time perception and body language, connecting these themes to Lynch's iconic series, Twin Peaks. The conversation then shifts to Lynch's early skepticism regarding the official narrative of the September 11th attacks, showcasing his distinctive voice within Hollywood.
As we navigate the political terrain, we analyze the policies of the Trump administration, the influence of big tech, and the role of billionaires in shaping political discourse. We reflect on the significance of Trump's inauguration, the presence of tech leaders, and the potential emergence of a North American Union.
The episode also tackles the economic landscape, focusing on the lithium market, tariff impacts, and the future of electric vehicles. We discuss the cultural exchange between the US and China through social media and how lifestyle choices can influence political perspectives.
Finally, we contemplate the broader societal shifts, the government's role in industry regulation, and the possibility of a resurgence of traditional values in an ever-evolving world.

That'll be the unofficial title, the official unofficial title with with Josh and David Lynch. Yeah. Yeah.
[00:00:10] Unknown:
Yeah. That that gives the worms into in a whole new fucking
[00:00:17] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. Right. Yeah. Right. So logging into social media, and then everyone's talking about the death of their favorite celebrity, giving all their tributes. I mean, that gives a different meaning to the word tribute. If we wanted to go higher brow, there's this idea of d determinant. Have you heard that word? It's not detainment, but kind of d determinant. Determinant. With this this this symbol is taken, and then its meaning is completely flipped to mean the opposite. So something that was a symbol for good is taken and and, completely flipped over.
[00:01:00] Unknown:
I mean, it so it it's the era of acceleration and inversion. Right? Correct. And and so because of that, it everything that gets presented to us from any perceived authority or, you know, the corporate structure, the entertainment spirit, all this. So it's always gonna be inverted. And I don't know about you guys. Think of it. But I believe we were talking about this when I was up at Ben's, but, like, it did there's some seriously weird shit going on with time right now.
[00:01:36] Unknown:
Yes. Yeah. Definitely, it's like hands on a clock if it's between what is it? 12 noon and 3 o'clock. Like, it could mean a different salute. Mhmm. So so there was time of of hand placement and how high your hand could go above your head before it's
[00:01:55] Unknown:
We have a handy guide for this. We do. And that's no pun intended. No pun intended. There is a a convenient, reference material. Right? So
[00:02:09] Unknown:
Call taxi, call waiter, between that is the red zone? That's the red zone.
[00:02:14] Unknown:
That's the red zone.
[00:02:16] Unknown:
Indeed.
[00:02:17] Unknown:
Like, the thing Especially when you look like especially when you look like me and Steve. It's true. In fact, we actually have to widen it a little bit. You got we gotta keep it down there toward the pet children. We don't even call them cats. It's like No. No. No. No.
[00:02:30] Unknown:
But see, now we could determine that essentially and say, well, that looks like a man who's looking at his fingernails. And because he's looking at his fingernails that way, it might have something to do with his sexuality. Right. You heard that said that way? So everything
[00:02:47] Unknown:
means something. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Positioned the hand position. Hand position is very important. Like, how much
[00:02:54] Unknown:
higher are your fingers than your knuckles when you're showing them off? If you're Right. If you're especially showing off your fingernails to people, then that means something completely different. So tying that back to David Lynch and David Lynch and the word Lynchian and his use of symbolism and everything means something. And when people go to look at the murder of Laura Palmer, you know, the woman wrapped in plastic,
[00:03:20] Unknown:
they went over that I don't know what that is. Is that an art thing or is that
[00:03:25] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. So he made a series called, what, Twin Peaks or something? Twin Peaks. And then there was a rest reference to that in a restaurant, modern day restaurant, which was like a Hooters restaurant. So they took the Yeah. That's Twin Peaks and turned it into a sports bar. So when I lived in Vegas, we went there for UFC night. Right. So Twin Peaks fans looking for for coffee and cherry pies were getting, you know, boobs pressed in their face, and they were having a a different experience. So the the word being lynching and having to do with surrealism and dream like logic in the passage of time, because in the movie, fire, walk with me, it's more of an r rated movie.
Mhmm. The television series is more of a melodrama. It was sort of a weird soap opera kind of play on things. And there was a lot of, anachronisms in the show, so you never knew what era the show was in. It was, like, early nineties, but then you had girls dressed like they're in the 19 fifties. So it's sort of this old world mentality of the best of America, but now we're getting to the nineties. Now we're getting into the information age, and everything is getting really, really dark. And there's a dark semi undercurrent that has taken over everything. So people were talking a lot about David Lynch due to the art that he created.
[00:04:47] Unknown:
But Well, he was, he was also, I think, the first prominent member of the Hollywood community to officially to question the official narrative, around the September 11th attacks.
[00:05:07] Unknown:
No shit. Yeah. Did not know that. That makes me happy because, of any anybody in Hollywood in any way, shape, or form, I've watched Lynch's movie at least the most. The the original version. Yeah. The the original dude. And I I've watched that, I don't know, like, a 1000 times or something. I don't know. How many times have you watched our intro video? Have I watched our intro? Yeah. At least 40.
[00:05:37] Unknown:
I'll I'll tell you what. Let's, let's run. I have the David the clip, and I don't I don't know, a 100% or not if this is the first time that he brought this up or if this is just, you know, the the end, you know, fairly early clip. But as you'll see, when I get to pull it up, it's from 2,006. And he's on Dutch TV here.
[00:06:18] Unknown:
Well, look at Dutch as fuck while he's on there too.
[00:06:21] Unknown:
I mean, of conspiracy. There also are, conspiracy theories of huge proportions. And you suggested to be show a part of a a clip of the documentary Loose Change Mhmm. By Dylan Avery. And it was a film that had been watched by 10,000,000 users to Dylan Avery. Could see it on the Internet. No charge. And it is a the film sums up in a way that all the theories about US government having planned the September, 11th, attacks on the World Trade Center. Well, let's first watch it. What do you think? Do you think it's convincing? What what what I tell in the in the in the film? It's not so much,
[00:07:15] Unknown:
what they say. It's the things that, you know, make you look at what you thought you saw in a different light. And those things for me, that bother me, is the hole in the Pentagon being too small for a plane. Mhmm. The lawn isn't messed up, and the government's not showing the plane hitting when many cameras photographed it. At the World Trade Center, 3 buildings came down like demolition, but and 2 of them were hit by a plane. But the third one, they said, do you want us to pull it? And they pulled it, and it looked just like the other 2. Those things bother me.
In Pennsylvania, the plane that went down, it was just a hole in the ground. There wasn't any wreckage. There wasn't any skid marks. There wasn't any tear in the in the earth, And and no one's ever really found out about that. So every place, there's questions coming from this documentary. And you don't have to believe everything in the documentary to still have questions come up. And you look back and you remember what you saw and what you were told, and now you have questions.
[00:08:38] Unknown:
And the event itself was but it did it change your life or did it change your view of It and now it's just an event
[00:08:48] Unknown:
that has many questions and no answers.
[00:08:53] Unknown:
And the suggestion that,
[00:08:55] Unknown:
the American government is behind it? That's But that's a too big for people to think about. It's it's too big. What do you mean? It's it's just you know, it's like something no one wants to think about.
[00:09:15] Unknown:
Yeah. So there's there's David Lynch. Almost 20 years ago.
[00:09:22] Unknown:
Wow.
[00:09:24] Unknown:
Having a converse and this is just months after loose change was released too. Because they put that out I think they put it out on September 11, 2006.
[00:09:36] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. And that was Anniversaries are important. The symbolism of the numbers, certainly. Everything means something. And as we're now seeing with new information released every day, we look backwards in history to try to put pieces back together to say, well, how did we how did we get here? It's kind of the big question tonight is how did we get to What what's fucked up is is like Steve talk like, you guys talked about at the beginning,
[00:10:04] Unknown:
both of you that, it's just too much right now. It's like everything's happening all at once, and it's all big stuff. Like, it really makes the eighties and the nineties seem so very slow compared
[00:10:19] Unknown:
as a motherfucker.
[00:10:21] Unknown:
Yeah.
[00:10:22] Unknown:
Yeah.
[00:10:25] Unknown:
Like, we were just sitting around, swinging our feet, hanging out. It was 10 years ago when Marty McFly went back to the future. The future was 10 years ago.
[00:10:35] Unknown:
Mhmm.
[00:10:36] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah.
[00:10:40] Unknown:
Look. Nothing like like the show we like the movie did either.
[00:10:44] Unknown:
By the way, Ben, we do we still need to watch that back to the future predictive programming thing. I gotta send that to you. According to, it's phenomenal, and I believe that. I do. I do.
[00:10:58] Unknown:
Nice. Wow. It'll be nice. Yeah. We got a lot. Man Yeah. Back to the Future was with We did Joshua Cromley made it tonight. Sarah g. Michael's Michael's always here right away. Good to see you. Gregory Walker. Yep. Yeah. Stella, Keriene, Skipper. We love all you guys. Analog lime. Analog lime. That's a fantastic handle, by the way. It is. And then it's common as we are in an in the alternate 1985 timeline.
[00:11:38] Unknown:
We might be. We might be. We've got Biff back in the White House.
[00:11:43] Unknown:
I thought you're gonna say Biff Tannen's Casino. If we're talking about casinos, we could talk about what we call them we call them shit coins.
[00:11:53] Unknown:
Now they're trying to force them as meme coins. They're they're not meme coins. There's nothing. Well, let's simmer on simmer down on that. We got Jared coming in here in a couple weeks, so we're gonna we'll we will dish out on the coins.
[00:12:06] Unknown:
Well, no. This was more of a roast of, Donnie and Melania who were releasing their particular They're not totally shit coins. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Somebody's gotta do spit coins. Somebody does. Somebody does. Was it a look. If you're if you're a black hearted, cutthroat, capitalist bastard, and you wanna make a quick buck on a rug pull, do spit coin and just donate a little bit of it to the show. Like, 2, 3,000,000 to the show.
[00:12:40] Unknown:
I'm still waiting on somebody to come up with the mono Monica Lewinsky blunt raps.
[00:12:47] Unknown:
Yeah. That's that's gotta happen too. That's gotta happen too.
[00:12:52] Unknown:
The Vonica Baminski? Monica Lewinsky blunt raps. You have to spoonerize it, so it's bon Bonica Malinski Malinski. You know, they're obviously presidential. See see, the point with the meme coin is I think the way they get by with it is that it's the person who makes the coin authorizes the coin. So it's Trump coin, and it's Trump announcing it on x or Twitter.
[00:13:20] Unknown:
They I don't know. Also made a Trump coin. Is it that's, like, basically the face of it. He's, like, aunt Jemima or something like that. It's not like But if someone else made a Trump coin,
[00:13:32] Unknown:
he'd have his guys go after them. So my question here is how how is this allowed when I and I I know we're gonna save this greater debate, but my question is there's been other people I know Telegram had their TON tokens that they were working on to finance, and that went through some some, no. No. You can't do that situation. And then LBRY library, the people that now have the Odysee video sharing website, they were trying to do a tokenization thing, and and then government people knocked on their doors and said, hey. What do you this is really interesting. Tell us everything you have planned for this. Mhmm. So there was some some slowdown and some delays, and they had to make change of plans For Trump to announce to his ex Twitter followers, hey. Coins coming out tomorrow. Be ready for it. And then sort of rewarding loyalty to the people that were following him So they would be the 1st people to try to play in that pool of meme coins.
[00:14:33] Unknown:
Yeah. Cheney is the one that I, first heard saw this about from because I think Cheney is all very into it. Right. Right. So so this is a probably a good bet. I mean, I would say that the Trump coin is probably gonna do better over the next year than the Hochtua coin.
[00:14:49] Unknown:
He already rug pulled it. Into it. He already did the rug pull on the Trump coin.
[00:14:54] Unknown:
They?
[00:14:55] Unknown:
Yeah.
[00:14:57] Unknown:
Partially, when his wife Melania released her coin, so people took their pros their, their gains from Trump coin and then cemented their gains by purchasing Melania's coin.
[00:15:16] Unknown:
That's that you know you know what that is? Is that So now the magic bean is under this shell. That's when you got a 16 on the table, but you double down anyways.
[00:15:28] Unknown:
That's what that is. Right. So in a world where sports betting is seemingly promoted by the NFL itself, like, you're watching football games, and they themselves putting sports betting platforms during the program. This is just the comment earlier was we don't know what world we're living in anymore. This is also different from how it had been to imagine that, you know, 2025, everything would be gambling and money would not be real. But people would still be starving and not have real money.
[00:16:02] Unknown:
It is back to the future. It is. It is. So we gotta steer away from this. This is all for the upcoming Jaren debate. Let's talk China then. Steer away. Steer away. Let's talk. Let's talk. Let's talk. Let's talk, addition to the fire from our last debate is that the, world's largest, not United States' largest, not can California, world's largest lithium producer went up in flames. And and and for those of you who have not Happening in Gaza is indisputable.
[00:16:39] Unknown:
Fragment
[00:16:40] Unknown:
Shit. Sorry. Yeah. For those of you that haven't had for a different clip. I I was going for For those of you that haven't had the joy of watching some of my shows with Emily Moyer,
[00:16:50] Unknown:
there's a whole element series. And on the last show, we talked about, specifically, with, those elements in that first row, you can't put them out with water because they will snatch that oxygen right the fuck out of that water, break the chemical bond. And funny thing about bringing up old 911 with the whole thermite thing, that's actually a type of chemical reaction where oxygen jumps bonds. And let me tell you that's particularly vicious when it does that, when oxygen jumps its bonds and breaks them. So you just can't put it out with water, air, air, anything that has oxygen in any way, shape, or form is gonna make that go poof.
[00:17:42] Unknown:
Mhmm. I heard Zoomers love 9 11 jokes. It's the funniest thing to them, apparently. Right. Which just is shocking to older people who are alive during that time.
[00:17:56] Unknown:
And then, here here's
[00:17:59] Unknown:
Moss Landing, California?
[00:18:01] Unknown:
Yeah. So world's largest lithium battery fact facility. Vistra Power Plant, Moss Landing. Officials have no time line for extinguishing the toxic blaze, but the reference realized lithium battery fire in California burned for 11 days.
[00:18:19] Unknown:
Well, I said the problem being you gotta completely cut it off from oxygen or else it does this. There's no there's no if, ands, or buts. So anything containing oxygen, including water, is not gonna cut the mustard here. And it's on a marsh. And it's on a marsh. Yeah. Yeah. And and that's a very interesting thing because, can you pull up, the thing from Telegram that I had that I sent that shows the, Ebi.
[00:18:54] Unknown:
As long as it doesn't require audio. I can't share audio from Telegram for some reason. A picture
[00:19:01] Unknown:
of the lithium prices. The lithium price.
[00:19:05] Unknown:
Yeah. Where'd it go?
[00:19:10] Unknown:
So we can see that, we can see from it, when Steve pulls it up that in 2018, oh, prices peaked due to a rapid expansion of the EV market, electric vehicle market. 2019, prices declined due an o due to an oversupply.
[00:19:30] Unknown:
Mhmm.
[00:19:31] Unknown:
And we fast forward to today where, in Trump's speech, he said the electric vehicle push is is over. Ford has, Ford has completely quit make manufacturing their division of electric vehicles. Enterprise got rid of the entirety of their electric vehicle line, which was 40% of their cars, I think, if I recall. So you gotta imagine
[00:20:04] Unknown:
hated it.
[00:20:05] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So you gotta imagine that, here now with Trump doing this and saying now the government backing on this electric vehicle push is done. Mhmm. The prices at least over the next 4 years are gonna completely just bottom out. And I know myself personally, if I owned the world's largest producer of something that the prices are getting ready to bottom out on, I would feel horrible if my entire giant factory went up in flames, and I just got to collect money while it's still sitting good.
[00:20:42] Unknown:
Oh, and and to add to that though, California just dropped the mandate for 0 emission trucks. Yeah.
[00:20:53] Unknown:
And and you guarantee that the the, ban on small gas, 2 stroke engines is about to be gone too. Mhmm. Because with the with the focus on forest fires right now, the fact that Newsom basically tried to take away anything under a 461, I think. Like, I can still get my like, any because they don't make an electric, I think, above a 400. So but anything smaller than that is banned in California now for buying anything new, any, you know, anything like that. And that's you know, that's gonna get overturned too. You're only up here because there's a dinner plate. So Right. You can only you can only haul so many fucking giant lithium batteries out in the woods with you when you're out there hawking through, you know, going out there with your saw. And, like, with my saw, one gallon of gas, some oil some bar lube in my saw, and I'm good to go for a whole damn day.
[00:21:55] Unknown:
And Dude. Always wanting to install TikTok just to see people's reactions.
[00:22:00] Unknown:
K. And then add to that your chipper, which would also have to comply Yeah. With that lithium battery standard. Yeah. Do you know how many chippers would just explode in the middle of the woods on a fucking 110 degree day? 100%. Like, you just you couldn't work. You'd be shut down for most of the summer, which is when you need to be out there cutting trees. Like, it's the most counterintuitive thing you could possibly think of.
[00:22:32] Unknown:
I said, in all of this to me says the severe decline in the next year of the lithium bright lithium battery prices and a a severe, decrease in lithium production. And if I own the world's largest lithium producing plant
[00:22:54] Unknown:
Right? So here's the the other side of that, and it's something that Garland Nixon brought up on the show this morning, the like within 48 hours, plus or minus, I don't remember which, of the lithium plant here in Moss Landing burning up. Russia fully secured an area of the Donbas that has the largest lithium mine in Europe. So we just lost we, the United States, Moss Landing, all that kind of stuff, who, by the way, is a massive agricultural community that now has the runoff from that flowing onto a ton of freaking farmland all over the place there. They just lost the the largest, you know, US domestic lithium battery facility as Russia gained the largest lithium mine in Europe in an area that voted and was begging to be a part of the Russian Federation for the last 11 years.
[00:24:08] Unknown:
Ever since, they seem to recall when the actually elected president was overthrown and, replaced by oh, yeah. That's right. Zelensky, who refuses to let there be elections because it's not the time to have an election.
[00:24:27] Unknown:
Yeah. I mean, there was there was a couple. Yeah. There was a couple. There was at least one other president before him briefly. But, yeah, Zelensky was the name of the TV show was the servant of the people, and it was about a teacher who gets hand selected to become the president of Ukraine. And then the guy who owned the TV station that put him on, dude who owns 3 passports, one Ukrainian, one Swiss, and one Israeli named Ehor Kollamoysky, formed a political party called the servant of the People party. The candidate for it was Volodola, Dolomir, Cokie, Smurf, Zelensky.
[00:25:20] Unknown:
So that's Yeah. That's fucking fascinating. William McKnight, in person friend of mine, he put in the chat, look at, he lives up in Idaho. Look at Idaho's Cobalt. And, apparently, Idaho has got the only Cobalt mine in the country. Mhmm. And they're looking they're trying to expand right now. Plans to expand the mine's resource model through drilling. The company is working with the US Department of Defense on a refundable cobalt refinery site selection.
[00:25:54] Unknown:
Yep. And they just flooded out all of the, people who had been, you know, generational residents of the particular area in Appalachia that has the largest lithium deposits in the US. And all of the, like, super pure quartz for, chips and a number of other components for the Internet of things. It is it is And then there's Stacker Pass in Nevada for the lithium too where they're trying to run, natives off their land to get it to lithium.
[00:26:40] Unknown:
You know, it's you know, the the world today is so much different, but it's always the same fucking story. You know? Oh, the the people with money and resources find, run the people off the land to get to said resources and have no problem burning them out and killing them. It's no different than the the when they were laying the train tracks, when they were doing anything else, you know, this is just time and again throughout history. This is what happens. And as they've the desired resources change, they still do the same taking 60% of the water from farmers.
Holy shit. Wow. Is that to cool it or to process it?
[00:27:29] Unknown:
Probably all of it. To grow avocados with?
[00:27:32] Unknown:
Right.
[00:27:34] Unknown:
I don't know that there are too many avocados that are up in Idaho. They're Pistachios? Those are Idaho avocados. Potatoes. That's California.
[00:27:41] Unknown:
Yeah. And that's the that's the Resnicks.
[00:27:45] Unknown:
Yeah. They're they're the ones that suck up all the water down here for their almond trees. Them almond trees take up mad water, crazy amounts of water.
[00:27:59] Unknown:
Wow.
[00:28:02] Unknown:
In fact, the Resnick's, fund a lot of the think tanks that advocate for war with Iran because, the the nation of Iran is a pistachio producing. In fact, the the largest or second largest next to the red Resnick's, producer of pistachios, on the on the earth. And for, god, dude, a couple of decades now, like, they've heavily funded think tanks that advocate for basically wiping Iran off the face of the planet, not just in the US, but but also
[00:28:45] Unknown:
I ran you you know, it's gotta suck to be Iran. Yeah. Let let let's be honest about that. I've been waiting for somebody to come in, like, because we've been personally trying to pick fights with, like, the Trumpers. Mhmm. But we're gonna go ahead and and let everybody else has already taken up all the low hanging fruit. We're gonna go ahead and try and, you know, get with some of these other people who are running around screaming how bad how awesome they are. And one of the things I would bring up is that, at the beginning of the Biden presidency, about 4 4 months before Trump left his presidency or 6, I can't remember which, he signed into effect putting an embargo again on Iran, who we just endlessly fuck with.
And once you take Iran out of the oil market, prices historically double every time. Every time. Where as opposed to the war that they picked with Russia, we were getting about 3% of the oil of our oil was coming from Russia is all. So that embargo that they placed on Iran is really what spiked the gas prices in, 2020 for sure. You know, where they it made a hard spike. That was a new embargo placed on Iran. And, all the Trump people, they don't they don't seem to notice things like that, that it didn't matter who was in office. You take Iran out of the market, prices double. That's what happens.
[00:30:29] Unknown:
Yep. The yeah. It so the the Saudi foreign minister is like, no, nobody's going to war with Iran. Don't worry about it. Calm down. And that's what what he's running around telling people. The Saudi foreign minister comes from the family that is like, on the Saudi side, one of the principal shareholders to Aramco, which is the single largest corporation on the planet. And it's the the oil company that the US and Saudi Arabia. But exterminated a good portion of the country for back in the 50s. Yeah. And one of the board members of Aramco comes directly from BlackRock.
So it's all just one big incest party up in there with, you know, corporations that are themselves owned by a couple of different corporations
[00:31:52] Unknown:
that are owned by a couple of different core you know? So even even the timeline thing, can we put all of that on the NAFTA? Like, everything you're saying right now, the whole time, the whole sped time, all of that. Can we put all of that on the NAFTA, basically?
[00:32:08] Unknown:
All of it? I don't know. Maybe maybe they actually did find Stargate.
[00:32:13] Unknown:
Is it a Gulf of America? Trade wind coming up? Right. So so we we could call it the Gulf of America because there's North America and South America. Jesus. But capital a America implying the US of a makes people really upset, which is kind of a a clever funny move. And I saw that, Hillary was giggling when Trump announced that. I don't know. I, you know, I don't know if this is the thing or not. And what by by that point in his speech
[00:32:45] Unknown:
Mhmm. It was like, he was promising all the things
[00:32:49] Unknown:
by that point in his speech. He did free Ross Ulbrich today. He did free Ross Ulbrich. Really? Yeah.
[00:32:56] Unknown:
Yeah. The dude who, who is actually trading Bitcoin, you know, set up a system based off Bitcoin back when Bitcoin was being sold as your information will net it was like the Swiss bank account for the poor man. Like, your information is not attached to this money in any way, shape, or form. They'll never find out who you are. They can never tray traces back to you, blah blah blah. Like and now they're like, oh, yeah. No. We use the blockchain to trace it right back to you, motherfucker.
[00:33:28] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, they gave him double I plus 50 for nothing that they actually proved in court.
[00:33:36] Unknown:
Yeah. Well, that's the federal government for you. They, what do they got? A 99 99 98% conviction rate, something like that, the feds? Because they just don't fucking lose. They cheat, lie, cheat, steal, and they have more resources than you.
[00:33:53] Unknown:
Mhmm. Yeah. So there was a huge lobbying effort by the Libertarian Party well, by Angela McCardell and a couple other people. Angela's national chair, for that's why they invited Trump to the convention trying to get a couple other promises out of them. That's when Trump said, if you guys help me get elected, all free Ross Ulbrich. She basically, in the eyes of a lot of people, sold out the Libertarian Party to Donald Trump. So this is the the pound of flesh for that. And it's an actual living breathing pound of flesh and Ross Ulbrich.
[00:34:50] Unknown:
I
[00:34:52] Unknown:
I mean, look, dude, that's a that's a wild compromise to make. That's a hell of a gamble. Really is. You know what I mean? Was the dude that you were just screaming at a year and a half ago because he was the guy saying, you know, we love the WikiLeaks, and we need more WikiLeaks. Give us the WikiLeaks, and then threw the dude in jail while his CIA director was trying to figure out how they could loophole kill him. You know?
[00:35:21] Unknown:
I I don't even understand how how and this is what's just, you know, always been the grossest thing about political people. Like, both parties do the same bullshit, and they both then they'll sit there, and it's like watching a super toxic couple that's separating. They'll point at the other one and scream to everybody how they do this thing, this behavior. Well, it it it's a behavior that they also do to the max. And you're like, hey. People are just gross. Just gross. Like like, I know, like, a lot of guys, like, when you're a more manly dude, they like, if you see a couple that's actually physical physically, harming each other and they're getting crazy, and they always expect you to run over and beat the dude up. And it's like, unless that situation was really crazy, no chance.
No chance. I'm not sticking my nose in that dumb shit. She's just as stupid as he is. Like, there there's almost no situations where the dude is, like, that out of line without the chicks also being completely crazy. Hey. Yeah. No. Like, where the one person's a normal person, the other person just batshit out of line all the time and acting like crazed. That that's that's how that's not how that works.
[00:36:45] Unknown:
There's a popular subreddit called, am I the asshole, where people will post evidence and ask, am I the asshole? And I would put forward that if you're having to ask, am I the asshole? I think you're in the asshole territory. You're you're around you're around the rim of the area of the in of the irritation. So whether or not you're the irritation or the irritant, it's like everything is irritating. It's irritating to think about, to talk about. It's disgusting. You're bringing it up in public. And this is really the fact that if you have to bring a private matter out into the public and ask the entire Internet to say, choose a side, it's a disgusting look. It it's not a it's not it's not a high level morality play here. It's you're you're both icky. You're both disgusting. You're both gross. Take a time out.
[00:37:44] Unknown:
Clean yourself up. Larkin Rose said that he did not release Ross. So what what was released was that,
[00:37:53] Unknown:
there was a statement that Trump put out on true social that said, I talked to Lynn Albrick, Ross' mom, and, I said that Ross was going to get a full and unconditional pardon. So, no, he's not walking out of jail tonight. They're still releasing the j six prisoners and shit like that.
[00:38:17] Unknown:
So some news is So there have been social exclusive?
[00:38:20] Unknown:
The well, I that's what he's using as his, you know, personal I don't know who he transferred ownership of True Social to.
[00:38:29] Unknown:
Okay.
[00:38:30] Unknown:
Because he would have to do that before going into the White House before being, you know, fully inaugurated. So, yeah, I mean, it's it's, you know, No. Ross Ulbrich didn't walk out of jail today. No. No. But that's something that he's gonna have to be like that that's something that's gonna have to be followed through. You know?
[00:38:57] Unknown:
Which that doesn't honestly surprise me. I realized that and believe me, I understand. I've been the one locked up before, but they've gotta go through all kinds of bullshit paperwork the whole nine. Like, even if you're in just jail and you go to court and you get found innocent, you would think that you could just be like, deuces, fucks. Yeah. No one walk away, but that is not how that pans out. Okay.
[00:39:24] Unknown:
You're still locked up for a good for a for a minute. Yeah. And then when you get released at, like, you know, 11 o'clock in the morning or something, they freaking buzz into your cell, and they're like, alright. You're going home, if you don't walk out until between midnight and 4 AM.
[00:39:43] Unknown:
Dude, when when, when I got released, you know, from prison because I I flatted my number. And so, because I wasn't gonna I couldn't do the whole parole thing. I couldn't let him you know, I just can't Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't do well with being told what to do. I live out in the mountains. Like Yeah. You know, And I and I know that, and I wasn't gonna let him turn my little cannabis thing into, a lifetime achievement award of time and print. You know? So I was like, no. I'm gonna flat my number. I'm a walk out, and you can fuck off. But on the way out, I took and I I mixed up a concoction. I took and I kept these 2 milks for, like, 3 weeks, and they were just so nasty. And I put them into a coffee bag, one of them resealable ones.
And I sat and poked holes in the fish in the the ends of, fish oils because they'll give you fish oils and for vitamins. And I squeezed all those in there, and I put it under the warden's door, and I jumped up on it. And I stomped on that fucker and just splashed it all over his office. Great. And so when they all when they took me when they were releasing me, they hauled me out like Hannibal Lecter. It was hilarious. I was laughing so hard. Right?
[00:41:04] Unknown:
I mean, if you're, you know, if you're gonna go.
[00:41:07] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. You guys still gotta let me go. I don't care. I feel like it should have, you know, photographers, videographers
[00:41:13] Unknown:
recording this and then, you know, sell sell you the opportunity to buy the tape and the photos on at the gift shop as you're exiting through the gift shop. Just like, enjoy your stay here. Here's some mementos. Send them to the grandkids.
[00:41:26] Unknown:
Yeah.
[00:41:27] Unknown:
Okay. Make money off of everything. It's like merchandising opportunities. I saw that on C SPAN. The the merch guys were out at Sunrise as early as they could to get on the streets to to sell warm beanies, hats, and things, mementos of the Sure. The moment I was at the, Trump inauguration.
[00:41:46] Unknown:
I hated it. I I loved it, whichever. Loved it. Really, you could just, like, have both printed, and then you could just sit there and, like, put one on one side of your cart, one on the other. Yep. Yep. All the merchandise available.
[00:41:59] Unknown:
Yeah. Yep. That was that was interesting to see. But weird that flags were flown at half mass because they were still celebrating the death of a old guy president who who lived a long life. So the flags were at half mass, but then also it was MLK day. So there was some some weirdness around that.
[00:42:22] Unknown:
Carter was the most feckless president that's ever been, like, wow.
[00:42:30] Unknown:
But then it turns out, do you guys know of Stanley? Is it Levinson or Levison? Stanley? No. The guy who the guy who created the Martin Luther King character. Mhmm. So his name is not Martin Luther King. Right? Martin Luther is a reference to a Lutheran guy who's like, hey. I don't like these indulgences that the Catholic church is allowing. So the Catholic church at this point was allowing people to pay for indulgences of sins that they had not yet committed. So futures on sins.
[00:43:08] Unknown:
Alright. You got some sin credit,
[00:43:11] Unknown:
In case you go out and have a wild one? Well, you could probably buy them at a discounted price because you buy them before you send. Alright. So all this ridiculousness led a guy named Martin Luther to say, hey. You know what? We don't we don't wanna do this anymore and sort of branching out and forking out. But then to name a black guy after a white German guy seems to be some level of humor and irony that I haven't quite worked out yet. So to celebrate a Martin Luther and then call him king and then call him junior and then put it all together and then celebrate his day and put it on every calendar seems to be some special level of mockery or humiliation ritual or reminder of something that I can't quite put my finger on my nose yet to figure out what's going on there.
But I think more and more people are know to saying things that they hadn't seen before, which leads to the next question of is free speech back? Has Donald Trump Fuck no. Returned free speech to everybody.
[00:44:18] Unknown:
Fuck no. Republican speech is back. Why, you know, you still look at since it's Elon Musk is out there. I'm the free speech king and then took away and took away, like, half a dozen, including, Myron Gaines, Jake Shields, Stu Peters, took away a whole anybody basically that doesn't bow to the to the, small hat regime, he took away their checks. Mhmm. And and and this and this is a super interesting thing to me right now because so for me, one of the big things, one of the reasons I would never you know, outside of I just don't like being led and I'm a free man. I don't like the political system because they literally set it up so that no matter which way you go, one of the sides is gonna be complete. The it comes with a poison pill. So you could take the basic democrat positions, and they're not too bad. But then you got the poison pill of the complete wild LGBT and all that other nonsense and let's get, you know, like basically communist, that that all that.
Most most of the Republican stuff, it's alright. And then you've got the small hat crap. You've got to point you know, they both sides have got their poison pill that they make sure that they shove down your throat. And if you wanna be on their team, you've got to represent that. And I'm noticing that the general public is not down. And then another they're they're not cool with the small hat thing. They are buying it.
[00:46:04] Unknown:
And They're also not buying corporate fascism. Yeah. And that's the poison pill for the r's or the d's. Yeah. A 100%
[00:46:13] Unknown:
for that matter. You know? 4 months ago, the technocrats were the worst people in the world. And then at the inauguration, they're like, and Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk and Bill Gates. You know, like
[00:46:28] Unknown:
So so the tech bros were sitting in the place reserved for Trump's family.
[00:46:36] Unknown:
Does does that mean Trump's family
[00:46:40] Unknown:
is Jeff Bezos whose wife was wearing some frilly lacy looking lingerie piece, and then Zuckerberg was famously caught staring at the little lacy, like, see, breezy bit. Which
[00:46:57] Unknown:
we didn't even know that he liked sex. I you know, we all assume that he was, like, an android or something.
[00:47:05] Unknown:
There's just, like, trying to keep his his face together. Bezos looking like, that Superman villain. Yeah. Yeah. They all own communication platforms.
[00:47:20] Unknown:
And they're in the front row. And they were the bad guys they were the bad guys 4 months ago according to the Republicans. Yeah.
[00:47:30] Unknown:
Yeah. So now But then Doug's not on got Dana White onto the board of Meta, and, yeah, all was good. A a men's wear that went on Rogan. So that mean old Joe Biden told me to censor people. I didn't wanna censor people, Joe Rogan. I just wanted to grow my hair out and grab some dicks at jujitsu. That's all I wanted to do. You're a little tan. Yeah. Get my bronze on. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't I didn't mean to take away all those accounts and ban all those people and force an agenda that was bullshit.
[00:48:08] Unknown:
And we still don't really apologize for it, but, the government made us do it. So it's not our fault. Times were times were different then.
[00:48:17] Unknown:
Times are different now. I'm ranking the most of what we got. Gave a $1,000,000 to the inauguration,
[00:48:23] Unknown:
man. I'm I'm one of you now. Yeah. I'm one of you. I'm I'm gonna I'm gonna drop some Rothbard quotes next time I'm in an interview.
[00:48:39] Unknown:
Oh, it's too fucking much. And and and what's what's amazing for me is is that one though, the public's not bucking. The the the the the typical right wing, voter, they're they're loving it. Like, they're they're all about Elon Musk. They're gonna excuse anything that they're you know? Like like, for myself, you know, Musk is obviously in the small hat regime, and he's out there doing the Nazi salute. They're like, look. He's a white nationalist like me. Like, you're like, oh, wow. This is so weird. So weird.
[00:49:24] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Dear lord. It's so dumb. It's so dumb. And then, yeah, the, mainstream alternative media and then all of the little, like, affiliate satellite systems that revolve around it or for residual clicks or whatever it is, you know, they drive it. They drive it. Like any sensible person looking at it goes, okay, well that's a defense contractor who also owns a social media platform, oh look, it's another defense contractor who also owns or is heavily invested in multiple social media oh, hey. Guess what? There's another defense contractor that owns multiple communications platforms right next to this I'm starting to notice a pattern.
13,000,000,000 in the cabinet, you say. 13. That's that's interesting. 13,000,000,000.
[00:50:32] Unknown:
Hold on, Steve. Steve. Steve. He's making America great again. He's for the working man, Steve.
[00:50:40] Unknown:
Right. The the combined wealth of the billionaires in the and we can, you know, have an entirely different conversation. We said this on the show this morning. You have entirely different conversation about whether or not billionaires actually exist. You know, in reality, these people truly own their own you say you both are very high. Yeah. The we had Camelot? Separate conversation separate conversation. But the combined wealth of 13 people in the cabinet is more than a 172 separate countries. 13 people.
[00:51:17] Unknown:
That's a flex.
[00:51:19] Unknown:
That's a flex, doggy.
[00:51:23] Unknown:
And the American public right now is, like, dude, if he could do a 5% of the things he claimed he was gonna do in that speech, not in his selling campaign. Dude's already voted in. Right. In his inauguration speech, if he could do 5% of that, he'd have to be a fascist dictator, much less any larger percentage. Like, you can't do that. The things he's talking about forcing through are just wild, wild. And now all of a sudden, for years, it's been a problem with the blue team where they don't realize the difference between federal and state, and then state needs to keep its own power or else the federal becomes this overwhelming thing. Now the state red doesn't understand that either. Like, Trump's gonna come into your city and take away your George Floyd statues,
[00:52:16] Unknown:
and
[00:52:16] Unknown:
they could put dicks on all your trannies. Like, what the fuck are we even talking about?
[00:52:25] Unknown:
The recocking of America. And cum socks.
[00:52:38] Unknown:
Got Elon Musk out there freaking doing the salutes. Oh, wow. Wow. Wait.
[00:52:50] Unknown:
The well, that took up all of the media attention and hardly anybody noticed that when Trump signed the executive order for dough put his hand in the bible? What? They didn't do that either. What what if once you're
[00:53:05] Unknown:
once you're, you know, absorbed into a different religion, you don't you don't do that. Trump has an official bible product, and he did not use that official bible product that he released to put his own hand on. Wasn't the Trump bible
[00:53:18] Unknown:
with the freaking
[00:53:21] Unknown:
imposs did it, damn it.
[00:53:23] Unknown:
Trump NFT on the cover. I understand there's just a lot of details to maintain on this very special day. But the obvious one, you release a bible with your name on it, and you don't put your hand on that same bible and then sell even more of them, like, the commemorative inauguration day version of this It might have taken away from his coin. Leaving money on the table. It could have. It could have. Yeah. That would have messed with Melania coin. Well, what would have been fun would have been a a tie in deal where if you bought the coin, you have the coin. Now you can spend the coin because this is this is what the issue I wanna talk about here is what is an economy. And if you're purchasing tokens, Trump tokens, and they don't serve any purpose other than trading them for other tokens, then we're not having, you know we're not buying Bibles. We're not buying bread. We're not buying food with them. We're not paying rent with them. Well, what can you do with them?
[00:54:18] Unknown:
You hold them. How do you guys know this, Mark? Because you hold them.
[00:54:26] Unknown:
Right. Okay. But I can't eat them. Huddle. Huddle,
[00:54:30] Unknown:
motherfucker.
[00:54:31] Unknown:
I can't eat them. Huddle.
[00:54:35] Unknown:
No. It's true. It's true. Like, at least with pogs, you know, you had to slap them down. You get in fist fights over it and stuff like that. No. They they even took that away.
[00:54:48] Unknown:
Yeah. Right. Beanie Babies.
[00:54:52] Unknown:
Yep. Been been calling crypto digital beanie babies for fucking and look, dude, I've used it. It's helped pay rent. It's helped fucking pay for my kids to eat and stuff like that. You know? But I'm not I I don't have the luxury of holding on to it like an asset.
[00:55:11] Unknown:
It has to be immediately. We need to remain realistic about what we're dealing with and what these things actually are to realize that, yes, this is so there's calling it a meme coin, and then everyone is saying a meme is a joke, and there has to be a punch line to a joke. So we're making all these extrapolations of the meaning of the thing of what it the meaning of the thing is what it does. The the motivation of the person is what was the result of it. It's like, work your way backwards. Fig figure it out. It should be very clear. The point of releasing Chump coin is so people can feel rich. This is King Trump giving his own money out so people can buy it, and then they can feel wealthy, but they aren't actually wealthy.
[00:55:57] Unknown:
Well and as they're trying to create this, Bitcoin strategic reserve Mhmm. And as Tether provided $700,000,000 or some ridiculous amount of money to help bail out the fucking treasury and shit like that just recently to get and, I'm guessing in exchange for becoming the official government platform by which,
[00:56:26] Unknown:
you know, the I like all others will be worthless.
[00:56:30] Unknown:
Well, no. It'll just you know, the yeah. Basic. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They'll they'll I mean
[00:56:36] Unknown:
I mean, realistically, the first one that I can walk into is that people can walk into a store and actually purchase with it, that one wins. All the other ones are a dead format at that point. If the government get greases the tracks to let somebody go in and say, take their little phone, like I see the kids do, and hover it over the thing and it bling and you can buy gas, that dude wins.
[00:57:00] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, this gets into the ideas of economies, a trifin dilemma, what is actual money, what is fungible. And if your whole point is you freeze because you think, I I can't do anything with this, or I can't sleep because the markets are open 8 days a week, 25 hours on the clock. It's like there's there's more time packed into the markets than actual human time involved in this. So people are posting in chat rooms and message boards. They're watching what they think is a financial market chart, but no one's saying, hello.
Wake up. Go to sleep now. Rest. Change your diaper. Go eat some food. Like, get away from the computer. Your money is gonna be okay. There's no security. There's no sense of I can just relax now because I have a little bit of wealth. No. It's the complete opposite. So because the thing is moving, and here's the point I'm making, algorithmic trading. There are computer there are there's software. There's there's people who are not people pretending to be people trading these things. It's not real volume and traffic and trading. But people new to this don't understand that.
So they think it's by the people, for the people, but this is not that. This is not an exchange of dollar bills under a subway underpass where people set up tents and they're having a bizarre market. This is people playing against the casino, and people when you walk in the casino, do you think that the the slot machines are fair and balanced and they have to pay out? All those Schwab terminals and the idea that there's a stock market, These are Yeah. These are toys given to adult children to feel like they're day traders, to feel like they're doing something with their time.
And this is just a complete mockery of what a job looks like. And a a man who goes to a factory, he comes home, he brings his bread home, this type of thing. But now I wanna go back to this h one b one visa thing and and, the color of the skin of the people being brought in and and traffic and borders. And so it's like you take away factories. We don't like factories. We're working too hard. You take factories away for a few years, a few generations, and now you're gonna bring them back, and people are gonna thank you for bringing back manufacturing to America. Is that what it takes to get people to to celebrate real hard work and labor? It's like pick your own potatoes and strawberries and food?
[00:59:58] Unknown:
I mean, the trajectory of the country right now is pretty freaking fragmented, but it seems like there's a huge segment of it that's, you know, oozing blissfully or at least oozing on antidepressants with a plastic smile towards transhumanism. Mhmm. You know, and everybody seated in the front row, of that inauguration is is people who would definitely are a part of that I want to upload my consciousness and live forever crew. So there, you know, there's going to be a a merger of that to satisfy those needs. There there's people in every, you know, broad sweeping agenda planning document that the UN or the World Economic Forum or whoever's put out over the last, yeah, did 50 years or so, Clubberham, stuff like that.
There's always a section of it where they talk about, you know, anywhere from 15 to 30% of society in general isn't gonna go along with this, and they're gonna be effectively left behind to go pick their own potatoes.
[01:01:16] Unknown:
And so to attempt to grow their own gardens after after, you know, a break in, what, 2 or 3 generations of not growing your own food. Right. Then you're gonna live off your own land and figure that out. Right. And we had That's pretty quick attrition rate. We had joked before that once Trump comes in, it it's gonna take too long to build factories. So we'll just use the ones in Mexico and just, you know, just take the city of Monterey
[01:01:42] Unknown:
and put it into Texas or something? No. No. No. No. You just call it the North American Union. And Okay. Okay. Now it's Mexico, Canada, Greenland. And pretend Panama Canal.
[01:01:54] Unknown:
And pretend like you just came up with that just now even though the guy sitting there pretending like he's your right hand man at this point and basically more powerful than the vice president. His dad is the one who came up with that whole plan.
[01:02:12] Unknown:
Yeah.
[01:02:13] Unknown:
Do you ever tell, like, it's yours?
[01:02:15] Unknown:
Yeah.
[01:02:19] Unknown:
And that you're for the people.
[01:02:21] Unknown:
Yeah. No. The the we talked about it on on the show before, several times about, Elon's grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, who was one of the original technocrats. And going back to the thirties, there's a map that they drew for the Technate. Mhmm. You know, the North American Technate, which is, I think it goes down into Venezuela a little bit, maybe even Northern Brazil, but it's almost effectively the exact same, you know, the United States of Canada, the US, and Mexico.
[01:03:01] Unknown:
So then I gotta ask, is there an idea to then because the the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of America, are we going to see more seamen and navy presence in that and to to to put people on ships and have a big show of that? Do do we expect to see Trump being a more military presence where he's taking pictures with, he's standing on their their, what do you call them, big boats with a big flat and top Aircraft carriers. Aircraft carriers. Yeah. Yeah. Are we going back to Pirates of the Caribbean? Are we gonna take over Cuba too? Are we gonna take over the whole that whole ocean body and just absolutely own it? Well, so
[01:03:47] Unknown:
go ahead. The democrat side was straight up basically fucking standing up for slavery by the end of the last election cycle where they're like, what do you mean we can't have max kids working for 25¢ an hour? What kind? It's racist are you? Okay. You're like, wild.
[01:04:08] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. My understanding of the renaming thing, the the Gulf of America thing Mhmm. Is that there was a moratorium put on drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. So rather than go through all of the red tape of trying to lift the moratorium, and however long it would take to fucking reverse that shit. If you change the name, you're no longer drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. You're drilling in the Gulf of America. It wasn't specific in the legislation in terms of longitude and latitude.
[01:04:53] Unknown:
And the Panama, Pan Pan Panama, Pan Pan American Canal. How are we gonna rephrase that? Is it we're taking it over. We're owning it. It's gonna be the Pan American Canal, the, that whole Sure. We're just taking it over. No. We're just taking it. We're taking
[01:05:12] Unknown:
it. So what they can't do about it?
[01:05:15] Unknown:
Right.
[01:05:16] Unknown:
It we did the Panama invasion already. Sure. We didn't even call it a war. It was an invasion. It just you know, like, we we're we're we're here. We're taking it. We're doing it. Brazil doesn't have a navy. Cuba
[01:05:26] Unknown:
doesn't have a a boat with some
[01:05:30] Unknown:
They got plenty of boats. They just don't have a lot of guns.
[01:05:33] Unknown:
Elian Gonzalez. Right. The the Elian Gonzales tributary tribute.
[01:05:41] Unknown:
Right. The illegal Elian.
[01:05:44] Unknown:
Their boats are less nuclear powered and more, being powered. Mhmm.
[01:05:56] Unknown:
Mhmm. There there was talk of, soybeans again, and I think Joe Atwal had had said to someone, due to your diet, we understand that you have a a proclivity to vote for one certain team. You you have a little bit of extra fat on your body. You what we would call a soy boy. So if I could pay for your blood test now and then a year after you following my diet to say, you know, eating different meats and removing soy from your diet, would you then all of a sudden vote republican? Would you vote authoritarian? Would you vote a different way? Would your mind change? Would your thought processes change due to your diet?
[01:06:39] Unknown:
Oh, that's an interesting interesting question. I I would add to it. Are more republican women off birth birth control and more democrat women on birth control?
[01:06:53] Unknown:
Well, that's kind of something they start handing out to kids at, like, 11 to 13 for various reasons Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Under the guise of, oh, no. Just take this. Yes. It's birth control, but it's also good for this or it's also good for that. And so in adulthood, I think you would find that to be the case. Yeah. I I don't but, you know, it's something that, like, I you would you would imagine that with, like, a complete reversal of diet would also come the formulation of other habits. And based on that environment, you might also change, you know, overall. Yeah. Like, the ancillary changes and all of that would would, you know, likely contribute to a change in in political philosophy.
Yeah. But, I mean, they're, you know, bullshit and tailor made to drag in dupes to keep them voting it to a system that's, basically a consent ritual for bloodline pedophiles. So, you know, there there's that. There's that.
[01:08:02] Unknown:
Did Trump say anything about not having to eat the bugs?
[01:08:06] Unknown:
Are we eating No. In fact, they want, played a clip this morning of the new WEF president, CEO dude, talking about how happy they were that the Trump administration was asking for such a large footprint at the WEF this year. So they're getting a a full delegation by the end of the week from the Trump team.
[01:08:33] Unknown:
It's interesting.
[01:08:35] Unknown:
Yeah. But you eat healthy, William. That's not how the majority of the voting population eat, and I would dare say you're probably not on the voting population. And and neither am I, and I eat well. And so I'm like, I don't know. I don't know how much how much these different chemicals like I said, they say that, specifically, when a woman takes birth control, then when a that she chooses more passive, men that act more feminine, and that is somebody they want to be around more. But as soon as they start in their ovulation cycle, they automatically want the more dominant, more aggressive man.
And that's what they're gonna choose. And so these women on birth control that this is all that they're having, and they and they always choose this one path. And you gotta wonder how much, you know, between diet
[01:09:34] Unknown:
and and things like that, how much is that affecting those things? Well, I mean, you're having your your in both cases, you're having your body chemistry violently altered.
[01:09:44] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah.
[01:09:48] Unknown:
And in William's case, I would I would imagine that, like, you know, you already have, a foundational philosophy. You already have, you know, core belief systems and a change in diet isn't necessary. It's already part of, like, your routine. It's not even that, you know that's why that's why I was trying to tack on to that, the other changes in environment, habit, routine, the, you know, peer group, stuff like that that would come from someone who was soy boy going to someone who just woke up and said, okay. I'm gonna, you know, join a gym and fucking get on the carnivore diet. Well, I think that's kind of a greater question.
[01:10:32] Unknown:
There's there's no doubt. In fact, Steve's been out in my farm when, there's been times that large groups of dudes have come, and Steve was here. And some of the dudes that showed up, they were on the soy boy end. But as soon as you get them around big bearded men fucking chucking logs out in the forest, they're like, well, hold on. I want my nuts to hang. Yeah. I I It was adorable.
[01:10:56] Unknown:
By the way. It was it was so cute.
[01:11:02] Unknown:
So with the the soft boys, the soy boys, you know, just pride go before the fall, are they gonna say, you know, fitness is gonna be important in Trump's America? Or are they gonna double down and say, you know what? My my body shape, my appearance, this is my choice, my body, my choice. Are we still saying my body, my choice?
[01:11:25] Unknown:
What It it'll be it'll be interesting to see which way the pendulum swings, on that. It really will because, I mean, if San Francisco can have a fat ambassador, you know, then the Trump administration can probably have a fitness ambassador. Mhmm. And so I you know, I could it's, you know, action, reaction, and inversion. And so if Trump puts a fit you know, puts it at the front and center of, like, a youth campaign, you're gonna have a whole bunch of liberal parents that are freaked out over they'll make it, like, you know, Hitler's youth or something like that. It's just just laziest, dumbest stuff. Mhmm.
And and so they'll, you know, they'll be, like, whole freaking social media campaigns to, like, fatten up your kid, stuff like that. You know, Donald Trump can't take away my freedom to give my kid type 2 diabetes.
[01:12:37] Unknown:
Fucking you'll you'll have fucking Karen's doing, like, the fucking loony tunes thing with the gravy, only it's a it's a barrel full of fucking corn syrup. I know why. Mhmm.
[01:12:50] Unknown:
Ranch dressing on your chicken nuggets. Oh, man. As much as you want.
[01:12:55] Unknown:
The partially state owned, US state owned TikTok by that point Mhmm. Will be lit with liberal women dousing their children in freaking high fructose corn syrup. Sure. And fluoride and fluoride.
[01:13:13] Unknown:
Yes. Well, understanding that reels on TikTok, short form video stuff is not a representation of reality, and people are encouraged to be the their most cartoonish self, to be their most stereotypical, comedic, bizarre self. So that was that was rewarded and encouraged naturally. Now when TikTok went down for was it 8 hours, 9 hours? It was taken down before it was announced that it would have to be allowed or removed from the store. I think TikTok themselves put up a notification for people with IP addresses within America to say and it and included Trump's name on the message to say that we're working with Trump just to restore access or something. So his name was on there, and people were upset about that. And it was down for maybe 10 hours, and then they returned it. Yeah. Returned access.
In in that small window of time and a little bit before that, another Chinese application, Americanized title as RedNote, was gaining a little bit of popularity. So people were, Americans who were testing waters and other platforms were then going to China's Red Note, which was another social media, whatever, you know, you post pictures, you post videos. All the social medias trend towards all the same features. So there's no real difference in them anymore. And with the translation abilities to put subtitles on the videos, the Americans were now talking with Chinese people on Red Note, and there was a bit of a cultural exchange here. Now this cultural exchange was, new to a lot of people. They had no idea what China was, and they had preconceptions about China. So people were exchanging these ideas. Some of the funny things that I saw were, quote, unquote, white women, western women, blonde hair, blue eyed women, whatever American woman looks like, was posting to Red Note, and Chinese women were complaining that their boyfriends were no longer interested in the Chinese look. So there's a concern of this we can't have this. So people were so the Chinese people were angry at American women for their dancing videos, saying we don't want that stuff here.
[01:15:47] Unknown:
Well, you you got you got your you gotta paint the rest of the picture. It's not just their look. It's their horribly slutty look. So it's not just and I saw some of these things myself. Yeah. It's not just, like, girls out in sun dresses innocently sitting next to a picnic basket, you know, nicely. And no. No. They're like, hold on. Fucking bitches, fucking twerking and g strings over here on damn Twitters or on, TikToks. Yeah. And we can't keep up with that. We're not skanks.
[01:16:25] Unknown:
There was a there was a sense of decorum, some sort of social cohesion as to what is appropriate behavior. That that that was a topic of concern as as well. Yes. The other topics were people were comparing medical bills and and cost of living and things. So
[01:16:42] Unknown:
China was Well, this was a big one because if you look at Iran, there's an easy case to be made that Iran was just the polarized other their society is just the polarized opposite of us. At one point in time in the seventies, our societies looked pretty much the same. And since then, we turned into the blue haired boys, you know, nose ring, boys, you know, septum ring, boys or girls, blah blah blah. And Iran went full conservative. And in fact, part of the insanity that we experience here is what they push as propaganda over there in order to keep their conservative, you know, lifestyle driven.
[01:17:27] Unknown:
Yes. Yeah. That's that's exactly the point that I was pushing towards just to say that what what is being shown on social media is used as a propaganda tool by everyone. So even on Red Note, where Americans were getting this idea that somehow China was 50 to a 100 years into the future with their technology, with their culture, with their politeness, with their economy somehow was like a Star Trek economy. And then some other more level headed people were talking them down to say, well, this is a Chinese firewall situation where they're not allowed to speak about poor conditions.
Again, let let me just say this more clearly. If the wealthiest people of China have the leisure time to post on Chinese social media, it's going to paint a picture of China that looks like everyone is healthy, wealthy, and abundant, and doing well. So then for the poorest of Americans to see that, it's not an accurate representation of any reality.
[01:18:41] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Well and, I mean, just by the terms of service or red note Mhmm. Any criticism of the government is instant ban hammer.
[01:18:53] Unknown:
Right. So any Winnie the Pooh posting on any Chinese social media, that's a really serious offense.
[01:19:03] Unknown:
Danny Polishchuk got banned from Redknapp. Mhmm. Or at least used that as the premise before, where did it go, For a video, they because he's been doing these, you know, writing these AI jokes or writing these AI bits. And they've been pretty freaking funny. The Trudeau ones in particular. But, yeah, he is claiming claiming that this particular video got him banned from Red Nail. Note. Very upset
[01:19:51] Unknown:
about that. Two genders in China? Wow. 2 champions in China, a one child policy in China. Is that still in play? I don't think that's I don't know. Maybe. May no. I think they reversed that.
[01:21:16] Unknown:
They figured out they were gonna very rapidly depopulate themselves that way. Okay.
[01:21:24] Unknown:
Well, especially when everybody chose one sex. Right? Yeah. You know?
[01:21:38] Unknown:
Women because they all seem to want it. Right? Mhmm. Women can be imported easily, but but men need to be of the soil of the land. Right.
[01:21:52] Unknown:
Let's see. Okay.
[01:22:47] Unknown:
If you like that, make sure to subscribe and follow.
[01:22:53] Unknown:
Subscribe and follow. Good stuff. Good stuff. So the the cultural exchange was quite short lived, certainly.
[01:23:02] Unknown:
Uh-huh. Yeah. No. There's still, like, Twitter communist that are trying to get I hate America clout points for being, like, oh, look what Red Belt said about, you know, and stuff like that. It's it's pretty fucking silly.
[01:23:14] Unknown:
I'm sure that they were shocked to find out that the majority of people in China, like, the majority of people everywhere were rural
[01:23:22] Unknown:
and live a whole different life than city people. Yeah. No. They haven't figured that out because of the rural people don't have Internet or RedNote. It's the wealthier Chinese with leisure time.
[01:23:33] Unknown:
Well, sure. And here's another question I just thought of now. I I know that there are certain countries that have agencies where there's just people that are in the military, but their job is to sit at computer banks, and they just post to social media all day. Yep. How does that not apply to, say, China? Oh, it does. It does. Okay. Okay. Or the MOS on that. MOS?
[01:23:58] Unknown:
Yeah.
[01:24:04] Unknown:
I'm not I I I would imagine it would be similar to the way that the freaking US army or UK or Israeli army runs it. You know what I mean?
[01:24:17] Unknown:
Right. And and we were talking about cyber warfare just how many months ago. It's it's a reoccurring topic. It comes up every so often.
[01:24:25] Unknown:
The the talk of You know, if the cyber warfare was like it wasn't Johnny or, like, hackers, I'd be totally way more down with it. It's not even cool like that. I don't even know what the fuck's going
[01:24:37] Unknown:
on. It's just not exciting.
[01:24:39] Unknown:
No.
[01:24:41] Unknown:
People forgot
[01:24:42] Unknown:
anything in terms of actors was fun and Angelie Jolie kinda looked like a boy with big lips, you know, and A pixie haircut. Yeah. Kind of that tomboyish
[01:24:53] Unknown:
thing. It's just more practical to not have hair on the way when you're when you're hacking all day.
[01:25:00] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. And they do it then the evil guy ran around on a skateboard with a backpack looking all weird and shit. Like, that was way more fun. Was fun. Yep. Yep.
[01:25:13] Unknown:
Oh, yeah.
[01:25:14] Unknown:
Like Johnny Mnemonic, he had, like, the whole glove. Like, it was, like, a Nintendo thing on the Internet or something. Like, now you were just, like, a Nintendo guy. Like, I'll slash you.
[01:25:24] Unknown:
Right. Is there talk of Silicon Valley becoming Silicon Valley again and making actual silicon chips? Are we bringing back manufacturing of of hard drives and data drives
[01:25:35] Unknown:
to the American From the way it's sounding, that wouldn't be in fucking Silicon Valley. It sounds like that new tech that new tech area they'd wanna put in is in Idaho.
[01:25:46] Unknown:
Because I I think there was a follow-up And they already that's already a highly
[01:25:50] Unknown:
Republican, very affluent area.
[01:25:54] Unknown:
Was there a plant going in along, around Milwaukee area? I think a Foxconn plant going in. And then they're talking about data centers. Alright.
[01:26:05] Unknown:
That.
[01:26:07] Unknown:
And, is this a good time to bring up real ID? I think 20 years ago, there was something talked about, pushing towards a real ID. And I think now in Minnesota, and in May of 2025, it's now the requirement for travel.
[01:26:22] Unknown:
Mhmm. Yeah. They're they're They've been pushing it back, air travel, and then they're trying to get it by 2030 for, interstate travel.
[01:26:33] Unknown:
Fuck you.
[01:26:36] Unknown:
I haven't heard any talk about that from any political sphere. It's just, you know, something that is
[01:26:44] Unknown:
Oh, dude. It was part of your real ID conversation back in, like, 2020, 2018, something like that. Right. We were reading about it in the San Francisco Chronicle, and then, yeah, they just they didn't talk about it after that.
[01:26:59] Unknown:
Yeah. They pushed it back, but that's California. California, they they enact, like, this shit recently, like, the TikTok ban where they banned it, and then it's back in 12 hours. That's a normal California law thing. California is just retarded with the way that their their law system. They pass laws knowing that it's gonna get overturned the next year. And you're like, oh, yeah. This isn't even feasible. We're just not gonna be able to do this. But they still pass the law like a bunch of dumbasses and screw a bunch of people over. Always small businesses because small businesses can't afford to take that hit.
And then once they restart up, the start up costs are ridiculous.
[01:27:40] Unknown:
Sure. Sure. And that was kind of a difference between America, the west, and China, maybe the land of the rising sun, the east. Wherein China, as soon as a business becomes so large, it kinda gets taken over by the government. So it sort of becomes a government partnership. But small businesses in China do really well, and they can be flushed with cash, and they can make a lot of money there. In America, it was stated that it's sort of the opposite, where the the small businesses have the most fees and license requirements and taxations,
[01:28:16] Unknown:
and just making it all different. Well, like the the the big business is subsumed by the government, and then the government fucks over the small businesses. Like, how's that different? Like, we saw already just at the inauguration. Sitting in the front row was all the big business people Right. And fuck the rest of us. But, hey, Trump's for the small man.
[01:28:41] Unknown:
Dip shits. For the entrepreneur, the, the entrepreneurial spirit. I know his art of the deal book was a popular one and also his book with Rich Dad Poor Dad Robert Kiyosaki. What's Robert Kiyosaki been doing? Why was he not seen at the inauguration? Well, they had to make room for the TikTok CEO. But all of those guys were why they could have gotten a Kiyosaki
[01:29:04] Unknown:
out there. No. No. No. There was there was a Chinese fellow, and there was Sundar Pinchai from Google. And there was, a couple other couple other, more melanated individuals up there. There was the, I can't remember his name. He owns Reliance Industries. He's, like, one of the top 10 wealthiest guys in Asia. Indian dude, number 1 or number 2 wealthiest guy in India. He was in the front row.
[01:29:36] Unknown:
To play back the footage, it's kind of a who's who of business. Yeah.
[01:29:42] Unknown:
Yeah. On Alger. What's up, brother?
[01:29:48] Unknown:
But, yeah. And I mean and Elon Musk was there, and as we all know, he's an African American.
[01:29:57] Unknown:
It's funny. I've yet to meet a black South African.
[01:30:00] Unknown:
Yeah. They don't they killed most of them.
[01:30:03] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. I have yet to meet one. Yeah. Like, where I'm from, they they did pop up in South Dakota occasionally, and they were always batshit crazy. Like, the, like, the they partied. These guys would be, like, 35 and partying like they were 14 still. Mhmm. Like, hey. I just drank an entire bottle of Everclear and snorted a can of paint. Do you have some cocaine? You're like, slow your fucking roll there, buddy.
[01:30:34] Unknown:
Holy. My dude, it's 11 AM, and he's like, yeah.
[01:30:40] Unknown:
We don't live like this. I don't I don't know what you guys do in your country. I don't I don't know. I understand you got brown brown and things like that. That's some wild shit. We don't do that. Settle down. Like, hey, man. I was just over here to get to smokes, to see if you could smoke some weed with me because I gotta settle the fuck down. Yeah. You do. Yeah. You do. Have some edibles. Go to bed. Mhmm.
[01:31:03] Unknown:
For, like, 2 days. Yeah. Do
[01:31:11] Unknown:
that. Nice. Have the kitchen. It's an important thing to do. Got a lot of cleaning to do. There's a lot of filth in this country, and we're ready to cleanse it. Is there Taking it back. Is there more dog whistles that we've missed? There's a lot of talk of, like, how far a person could raise their hand above their head. And if they did it twice, did it mean something? Was there a third time that it was missed? You cannot be from western society and do that. And I mean,
[01:31:38] Unknown:
with the with the emphasis that he did, he's like, you know, it's not like he went, like, you know, or something like that. That dude was like, Sure. Right. What the fuck? Nobody does that and doesn't know what they're doing. Nobody in western society.
[01:31:55] Unknown:
We've all been I like it. What you're saying though, man. Like, he Is it a Roman salute? He was trolling. Trump's in there. And he says, I'm sending you my heart, you know, and then, like, smacks his heart for this dude. It it's it's meant to capture the news cycle and to make people not realize that in the executive order creating those, there's no mention whatsoever about getting rid of agencies or anything like that. It's all about updating the, tech Government. Of the United States government.
[01:32:34] Unknown:
Yeah. Government e basically. So Amazon
[01:32:37] Unknown:
with their cloud service is Elon Musk with his Skynet services. It's all digital stuff out in the cloud up in the air up in the ether. Why why wouldn't you love it with the Bitcoin?
[01:32:51] Unknown:
They already came out and said through the blockchain that you all touted like it was great. We monitor every single thing you've ever done, every transaction. If you want a piece of bubble gum or a $3 jerk off on I I I don't know about these what whatever with these porn sites. I don't know what they cost, the the thing with the only girls. Right. They they know all of it about you. They they can build an entire portfolio, and there is nothing that says more about a person than where they put their money.
[01:33:27] Unknown:
And they're they're gonna sell VPN service. So now you're paying for your ISP. And because your ISP is wide open, you gotta have a VPN so you can cover your tracks a little bit, and then you gotta buy your buy your coins. But to buy your coins, well, that's one thing. But now you wanna cash out your coins? Now you need to show some paperwork. You gotta take some pictures. You gotta kinda do a 360 scan. You gotta get some fingerprints, saliva. Like, at what point is it gonna be so ridiculous to withdraw whatever tokens you've collected that some people are just gonna have to say, you know what? I can never withdraw them. I have to stay within the system.
I can't cash out. I can't buy gold with them. You think you're gonna buy a car or real estate with with this funny money? I mean, that's for a debate. Certainly, we'd love to debate this topic more extensively and very specifically down to the nitty gritty of every aspect. Darren's already agreed to come in and do that debate. But Sure. Obviously,
[01:34:26] Unknown:
he's a bit sidetracked right now with the final experiment stuff
[01:34:36] Unknown:
and dealing with all of that. I thought the science was titled. Is is they're still working on the science of it? Country numbers, snow blindness. Can you can you even see that that sun was up for 24 hours,
[01:34:53] Unknown:
and they're just I don't wanna be there. Good. Could you imagine, especially up there? Like, I'm from you're from Minnesota. Yeah. Like, and Steve's from that area. Some people, like, around here especially don't realize when the sun's up like that and it's, My eyes hurt. Oh, god. You would walk outside, and you couldn't open your eyes for nothing. You'd be, you know, the Inuits. You they they say they made the first sunglasses, and they were just made like slits. You know, like the like the things for looking directly at the sun, and that's just to look normally at the ground. In 24 hours of that, you're getting sunburnt in negative temperatures.
[01:35:39] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No. I I grew up in Indiana back when it snowed. I guess it occasionally does that now. But
[01:35:51] Unknown:
But global warming is not an issue anymore. It's
[01:35:55] Unknown:
repealed. It's not allowed anymore, I think. Well, they just pointed the weather machine at a different state, I think, is what what happened. Okay.
[01:36:06] Unknown:
Who controls the cloud making machines now? Is that in in Trump's Space Force
[01:36:11] Unknown:
pocket? Well, yeah. He's got anything with Space Force? Bill Gates is the one who's been, and this is this isn't even a conspiracy. Bill Gates is flat out been working on blocking the sun Mhmm. And doing things like that. And now him and Trump were apparently best friends now.
[01:36:29] Unknown:
Well, this this happened, last time Trump went into the White House too. Right before he went in, he hung out with Bill Gates for a little bit, then he, withdrew the United States from the World Health Organization. And then over the next year and a half, he gave Bill Gates', you know, group, Gavi, over a $1,000,000,000 to do effectively the exact same thing that the WHO would.
[01:37:02] Unknown:
Bill Gage said he could control the population crisis through vaccines. That's the guy we wanna control with medical shit. Totally.
[01:37:14] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. So he just Trump earlier today withdrew from the WHO or did that yesterday right after he met with Bill Gates. So if you know history has anything to say about it, there's going to be a very large influx of US government dollars to Gabby again.
[01:37:43] Unknown:
Money. What is money? Do we have an answer? We know what a woman is now. That's been declared. We know what a man is. We know what a woman is, but what is money? Right. Have they declared what the official definition of the word money is?
[01:38:02] Unknown:
I don't know. Those necessarily up for contention, but just well,
[01:38:08] Unknown:
it At one point in time, it it really kinda is so because when you look at the country's history, it's specifically one for one meant a certain weight and species of gold or silver. Mhmm. That was a one for one thing. You went in with a banknote, and you could walk out with either a note or gold, one or the other. The two things were interchangeable. They meant the same exact thing. They were meant to mean the same thing. And now what the fuck's your meme coin? What is that even? I don't even know. No. I I'm not asking this historically. What the fuck is it? Is that a it could it be It's not a meme. It's not a coin. What the fuck is it? Can I buy groceries with it? Right.
[01:38:57] Unknown:
It's yeah. Because the cost of living thing was was brought up by, you know, it was the release of all the information within a 48 hour window is such a flood of ideas that it just it all it's so difficult to even choose one thing to to go deep into. Was the cost of living brought up, and is he having a task force to look into it, to address the cost of living?
[01:39:25] Unknown:
So all the peasants get a little bit more bread. That. How do you even do that? I mean, the government has pretty hefty control of the energy sector. They could control that, and that would make fairly large gains. But nothing that he's talking about and this isn't even me shitting on the tariffs and anything like that. I'm actually very much for that. Mhmm. But to pretend like that's gonna bring down costs would be absolutely asinine. It won't bring down costs. It'll bring them up. What it'll also do is make American good goods competitive, which will then bring up American manufacturing, which means Americans are getting more pay, which means they have more money.
That that's a entire sequences of events. Will it bring down cost? Fuck no. And I don't know how you could. I don't give a shit who you appoint. What are you gonna do? Run around the grocery stores? Run around the egg producers and tell them they can they have to charge less for their eggs?
[01:40:23] Unknown:
Sure. And there might be multiple ideas of what currencies could be, you know, with tokens and shitcoins and electronic currencies and digital golds and food stamps and EBT and, universal basic income. Has that been part of the conversation? Are there still trials in certain counties where that's been
[01:40:48] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. And and again, that Elon Musk is a huge proponent of universal basic income.
[01:40:56] Unknown:
I mean, it always failed where they try it. Yep. So what do I have to do to remain in the eligibility to receive the electronic food stamp disbursement? Yeah. You have to be a good boy. Okay. And then I can get my chicken tenders. My pink, sloppy, breaded chicken tenders with a a packet of ranch Mhmm. Dressing.
[01:41:21] Unknown:
Yeah. Could I pick that up from wall from Walmart? Could I go to McDonald's? You don't even have to go pick it up. They'll bring it to you. They'll ring it right. You don't have to leave your house. Just stay locked into your screen. If you feel like going somewhere, put on the VR goggles. You can go anywhere you want. Yeah. Do you actually don't have the social credit and the or a vehicle to get you to Real Nature anyway, so you might have no no real reason to.
[01:41:51] Unknown:
Seems nice.
[01:41:53] Unknown:
Right. I mean, that's the the that's the these clowns sit here and talk about life like that. Like, it's gonna be a good thing. Like, that is a good thing.
[01:42:04] Unknown:
Right. So it's the future unevenly distributed to people who want it or don't want it. And not everyone has the choice, so they take what is available, and that's
[01:42:18] Unknown:
government cheese, reopening the government cheese. Had an argument about pouring salt onto your land. I don't know where else you go from there. I really don't. And that they want to expand the North America and then take over I mean, whether you're talking about the Nazi salute or the Roman salute, these are both highly expansionist expand you know, their entire MO was expansion.
[01:42:44] Unknown:
Sure. Right? So My my pride is wounded. Pour salt on me, please, sir. Pour more salt on my wounded
[01:42:52] Unknown:
pride. I'm You know what? Most countries, that shit that have snow, that shit's not even legal. They don't even let you do that in your own driveway and shit like that. Like, you go over to, like, Germany or any place like that. It's like, no. You don't salt your own fucking land, dummy. Even with even with road salt or or just normal, like they're like, no. You you don't put salt on your what are you doing?
[01:43:16] Unknown:
Dude. I mean, dude, dude, put ketchup on your foie gras, on your steak, on your your fine cut of meat. Just put some ketchup on it. Bring bring packets of ketchup to every restaurant you go to around the world.
[01:43:32] Unknown:
And, you know, my my best friend in high school was actually full blooded Chinese, and he he was, so he wasn't con he was conceived in in China, but then he came over here. And he's, like, twice as big as every all of his siblings and his parents. So don't tell me about the food they grow over there and that it's okay. Like, get the fuck out of here.
[01:44:01] Unknown:
Are you saying that the nutrients in the food in China keeps the people smaller there?
[01:44:06] Unknown:
The lack of. That's why they went and created an entire you know, funny because the two crops that we looked at were were rice and wheat. Mhmm. What are the 2 most GMO crops? Rice and wheat. Like, they literally GMO'd rice first because there was such an issue with lack of nutrition for these Asian people that, especially on islands that, they created rice just to make it so, okay, you can grow this and be healthy still.
[01:44:41] Unknown:
Fortified rice with extra niacin and vitamins and minerals.
[01:44:47] Unknown:
Protein. Heavy and protein. Yeah. And then wheat and then corn. Those are your 3, and soybeans. Those are your 3. Lucky, you get some weevils growing in there, so you get a little extra protein. Right. But I I I'm I honestly would have an argument about whether you could even have wheat without weevils. Like, in my opinion, weevils are automatically there. I'm not even sure if they necessarily exist on this plane Up until the the so there's an argument to be made. And an easy example of this is called the thermophile. And under recorded microscope, thermophiles, when the conditions are right in soil, will just appear.
And then when the conditions are when those conditions are over, they disappear. There's no corpse. There's nothing left. There's nothing to dissect, nothing around. And so weevils, any flower that's not been highly radiated, which means that they've killed every single thing in the the dust that's now, was flower, including any nutrition for you. So it's just a dead matter now. If if they haven't done that to it, as long as moisture hits your flour, all of a sudden weevils are there like magic. Doesn't matter what you fucking did, how how nicely you cleaned it, how you took your wheat berries and cleaned them and kept them nice and blah blah. You grind that shit. You grind that shit up into some flour, and, you let it sit around. You let some moisture get in there, and you magically got weebles.
[01:46:36] Unknown:
Do you get a Michelin star deduction for having weevils in your food? Like, all of the restaurants in America are Cisco slop. Did Trump say anything about restaurants and and giving us 5 star restaurants again? The whole make America great again promise implies certain things. Can we read between the lines and say what it includes and what it doesn't include?
[01:47:06] Unknown:
Well, apparently, it doesn't include red dye number 3. Just that one. Just that just that one. With No more code red, Mountain Dew? There's an argument to be made that that starts the ball rolling for other food dyes and stuff like that. Mhmm.
[01:47:24] Unknown:
That you can't They made other food dyes illegal in the past. So
[01:47:34] Unknown:
now we got another one. I don't know. I don't know.
[01:47:38] Unknown:
And I think there was some sort of paints, art supplies that were just some laws change about some sort of paints that might have had light in them or some certain pigments and things were or change, but I don't think Trump has anything to do that. Don't we still have a FDA and an EPA and the same regulatory commissions that are just gonna keep on regulating and disregulating according to whatever direction they're they're given?
[01:48:08] Unknown:
Yeah. I don't I I I don't know, man. I just see what what honestly, we'll have to see if they even go through with the red dye number 3. Right. Yeah. You know?
[01:48:19] Unknown:
It's like student loan forgiveness. Every year, student loan forgiveness is brought up, and then I don't think any student loan has ever been
[01:48:26] Unknown:
forgiven. Is there a spin? That was just that was a sign of a call. That was brought up by the democrats to excite college kids who fucking who are just sad that they fucking went into debt over something that's pretty much useless. Gender studies.
[01:48:40] Unknown:
Yeah. Social studies. And any of the the studies, the the, male gaze in video games department studies, all of these sort of studies. You see some of the other ones? Like, they got a Taylor Swift course. Sure. So here's our here's our conclusion. Now write backwards, your thesis to reach the conclusion we've just assigned to you. Will will we return to science? Insanity and logic and rhetoric and figuring things out. Is is that what makes America great?
[01:49:19] Unknown:
The problem is is even some of these legitimate courses are basically pyramid schemes. Christie's sister-in-law, she didn't take underwater basket weaving or something like that. She took biology of some exotic ass fish, which basically has no jobs to it except for now, you know, except for, like, going and teaching other kids to go into this industry so they can have a degree to do this thing that there's no jobs for. Right? What the hell? Like, there's only so much you need to know about the biology of one exotic fish and Yeah. Unless it has some great impact on the entire world, nobody's investing into that.
[01:50:05] Unknown:
Yeah. It's just like the sentiments and the feelings and the emotions have sort of shifted in my myself, and I'm thinking, you know, that that great reset promise to restore some balance and bring things back. And now people are like, no. Let's forget about that. Let's let's maintain the status quo and return to conservatism and central is center centrality and just, you know, centered it just there was a opportunity to push things off the cliff and then have some radical change. And now people are like, well, you know what? We're just that's a little bit too extreme. Let's let's not do that anymore.
Talking people down off of clips and bringing them back. You know, just go back to living your life. We don't need to talk about any radical reform. I don't know if there are still college students in intense protesting wars and on foreign shores and to rivers and seas and whatever their their slogan is. No. The democrat side is is pro war now, Marcus. Catch up. Catch the fuck up. Catsup, tomato product in my pocket,
[01:51:13] Unknown:
fake blood. Yeah. The hippies were like, oh, drowning now. Psyops.
[01:51:18] Unknown:
I was listening to C SPAN the morning of Monday. And the thing is you could call in and they had 3 lines. Monday. I like how there was no date attached
[01:51:28] Unknown:
to it. Just the morning of Monday. The morning of the Monday.
[01:51:34] Unknown:
C SPAN, call in. There's a democrat line, the the 3rd party line, and the republican line. And you can call in, and you can talk for 20 to 30 seconds until they cut you off. And the guy just basically says, hold on. We have Donald Trump walking in. Hold your thought. Donald Trump has walked in. Continue your thought, caller. Thank you, caller. Go to the next one. And I heard skip the toilet, and they hung up on him. I heard someone use the v word talking about vaccines, and then they're like, thank you, caller. Go to the next one. So people were expressing ideas without any comment from the people. So it was like, this is how Americans are feeling this day. And, again, the big theme that people continually return to is America, founding fathers, Thomas Jefferson, church and state. What does that mean?
Thomas Jefferson talked about church being separated from state, being separated from church, and then went to church. And then on Monday, we see the video cameras in Washington outside of is it Saint John's Episcopalian? That was Yeah. I think so. Big church, and they go into this church building, and they have a church service cameras weren't broadcasting from inside of it. But we saw people go in, and we saw people go out, and we saw people moving around. And the callers kept calling in and talking about the same issue of church and state separation, and what that means. And and people were experiencing church, being separated from state, being separated from church, but is it one thing though? And none of them were even having the self realization to say, well, isn't politics the default religion of America?
[01:53:29] Unknown:
The the the the separation of church and state thing isn't as much obviously, your religion is gonna drive a lot of your moral. So it's not as much as what people wanna think it is. Mhmm. They gotta understand that the the the original, settlers of in this country were escaping King James who had had a bible completely rewritten. The so before that, they had the Geneva bible, which is what the settlers brought with them, the ones who were Christian. And they brought this Geneva bible in order to because the, king of England had said this other bible is illegal, and you now need to use this bible worship in this way that I said and do this thing I said.
So that's not quite the the same as what they're talking about here. It's not like anybody's trying to do that. You know? It's not like there's not 83 different versions of Christianity in the United States.
[01:54:35] Unknown:
Right. And the the simplified argument might be that the idea of separation from church and state has to do with not having government interference into private places of worship and communities, unless they're splinter cells or, strange groups of people with strange cult like beliefs, then certain agencies can report on them and and, investigate. But the the general idea of the separation of church and state, C SPAN, a lot of people are just paying lip service to what they think America was yesterday, today, and tomorrow. And all of those callers, just like red note, I was wondering, were they all just act were they all were they all coming from inside the building?
Were they all government employees calling in to C SPAN, and then no one was questioning that. So, again, if we're talking about simulation theory and what is real and the matrix and all these metaphors. And then you listen to C SPAN. I listen to C SPAN, and I was just abs absorbed in Americana and the idea of government and Washington DC and buying a a Trump, sweater from some black guy in the corner who got there first. It's like this whole special day and the ritual of it all, it felt very innocuous and pleasant and kind and nice and and fun for the most part. But then if all these callers representing themselves as Americans might have just been from within the building, the call was coming from within the building. No one would even know.
So at some point, it's like we talked about the great awakening, and now it's like, okay. Daddy Trump's in power. Go back to close your eyes. Mhmm. Go back to sleep.
[01:56:42] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Well, they made such a huge deal, right, during COVID about the great awakening. Mhmm. So if it's about acceleration and inversion, then, yeah, he'd definitely be there to put people back to sleep.
[01:57:04] Unknown:
Have all the splinter cells and all the, the resistance and the patriots and the people that were ready to start militias a few weeks ago, a few months ago, are they just like, oh, well, you know what? It's cold. Let's just, let's just plan on a Super Bowl party now. Let's go back to watching sports and football, betting on it. Sports ball.
[01:57:31] Unknown:
Yeah. The whole the whole betting thing is gonna wreck the generation that porn doesn't claim. Freaking Pokemon Go doesn't claim or whatever the fuck, you know, stupid ass fucking video game people get sucked into. Yeah. It's getting right. It is. It it's fucking, yeah, insidious.
[01:57:59] Unknown:
Dude, it it it's the Roman Empire fall all over again. Got a bunch of people having degenerate sex and gladiators and things like that, and then just gorging themselves on food while country
[01:58:11] Unknown:
people live destitute lives. It was free popcorn day. I don't know if anyone went to the theaters on free popcorn day. Apparently, popcorn was free.
[01:58:23] Unknown:
Wow. Nice.
[01:58:25] Unknown:
That'll save you $45.
[01:58:27] Unknown:
And if you could get free popcorn, and what did they do with it? They poured it all over the floor. They made a mess of themselves. So their popcorn privileges now need to be revoked. Aw. Because we gave them popcorn privileges, they misuse their popcorn privileges, and now we need to revoke popcorn privileges.
[01:58:47] Unknown:
And with that, guys, that is our public service announce for for public service announcement for tonight. Do not abuse your popcorn privileges or you lose them. It's true. That's true. Popcorn privileges
[01:59:01] Unknown:
are earned. And I gotta jump. So Love you guys. Love you guys. But, yeah, we'll we'll see you next week. Behave, and then we'll talk about popcorn next week.
[01:59:12] Unknown:
See if you act right.

If you leave a kind, we don't have to laugh.
