Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Ketty.
Speaker 2: Armstrong and he Armstrong and Eddy.
Speaker 3: Alst of what we saw were crimes of poverty. People
Speaker 3: who are stealing things like tooth based, people who are
Speaker 3: stealing things like, you know, a soap, And that means
Speaker 3: if you're stealing those things, you need them. And we
Speaker 3: are choosing to protect billion dollar companies like CBS and
Speaker 3: Walgreens over the people who are struggling to get by.
Speaker 4: So I would say that the true crime is that
Speaker 4: there is such incredible wealth disparity in this city that
Speaker 4: there are people can be thrown in jail simply for
Speaker 4: having a biological need.
Speaker 2: That is New York State Representative Emily Gallagher. That is
Speaker 2: the current version of Woke as it's evolved slightly. We've
Speaker 2: been chatting about AOC's unbelievable little statement the other.
Speaker 5: Day woke one was crazy.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I've been on vacation for a week and Joe
Speaker 1: and I always noticed when we're on vacation that there's
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of stories that were talked about among
Speaker 1: the chattering classes on cable news. And podcasts and talk
Speaker 1: radio like they were really really important and when you're
Speaker 1: on vacation you miss them and you didn't miss anything
Speaker 1: because they come and go.
Speaker 6: This is not one of those.
Speaker 1: AOC making her little plan again, Michael, her little flippant
Speaker 1: comment about.
Speaker 5: Woke Woke one was crazy.
Speaker 1: That got a lot of attention, should have gotten a
Speaker 1: lot of attention, should continue to get a lot of attention,
Speaker 1: because the woke apocalypse was one of the most amazing things.
Speaker 6: That's ever happened in my life.
Speaker 1: And to I think cleverly try to massage that issue
Speaker 1: the way AOC did is definitely worth remarking upon.
Speaker 2: Especially because it is she and her buddies in compatriots
Speaker 2: who foisted woke one, honest, and there's still as active
Speaker 2: as ever as I was trying to hint there by
Speaker 2: playing the nice New York State representative. How recent and
Speaker 2: by the way, amazing is too neutral a term. It
Speaker 2: was one of the most horrifying things I've ever seen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, yeah, I was amazed, I think because, as
Speaker 1: I have said many times, I never completely understood how
Speaker 1: the cultural revolution could happen. I never really understood how
Speaker 1: Nazism came to prominence.
Speaker 6: None of those things made sense to me.
Speaker 2: I now completely.
Speaker 1: One understand how that can happen because I lived through
Speaker 1: Woke and I saw how things went so crazy so fast,
Speaker 1: with Black Lives Matter being a slogan that you either
Speaker 1: adhered to where you lost your job, the whole trans
Speaker 1: thing obviously, and so many other different issues much more.
Speaker 2: That's the very thing we're getting into. Yeah, but go ahead,
Speaker 2: that just me too.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, was me too?
Speaker 1: A craze where people were losing their jobs because they
Speaker 1: asked a woman out.
Speaker 6: Once years ago? Maybe well sometimes it wasn't even proven.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's just it was insane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, absolutely nuts. Anyway, let's move on. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: you're a statement about Nazism and then the Cultural Revolution,
Speaker 2: the rest of it, the Holocaust. I think a lot
Speaker 2: of us assumed that way more people look at life
Speaker 2: through the lens of truth or sanity, or it's a
Speaker 2: good idea. It's not a good idea in short, whereas
Speaker 2: way way more people are sheep than I ever dreamed.
Speaker 2: They really look at the world through the lens of
Speaker 2: Will I be accepted for believing this? Okay, I believe this,
Speaker 2: and it's just disturbing to me. It's highly disturbing. But
Speaker 2: that explains all of those horrific social phenomena through history,
Speaker 2: It really does. So it's one of the reasons the
Speaker 2: founding Papas were so intent on preventing the oppression of
Speaker 2: the majority. I'm sorry, the oppression by the majority. They
Speaker 2: knew how dangerous that is.
Speaker 1: I understand the French Revolution now in a way that
Speaker 1: I never understood it before. How it could swing so
Speaker 1: far one direction, and then like a month later, the
Speaker 1: very people that you idolized you're now cutting their heads off.
Speaker 1: All that makes sense now, having lived through the wo apocalypse,
Speaker 1: how things can change so incredibly quickly. So that clip
Speaker 1: you just played of the CVS and Walgreens they're the
Speaker 1: evil ones.
Speaker 2: How recently is that like the other day? Really? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Wow, they're still on that. They still think shoplifting makes sense.
Speaker 2: Okay, And back to AOC and your French Revolution thoughts. There,
Speaker 2: not only are you in some cases beheading the people
Speaker 2: who you were worshiping two weeks ago, but often if
Speaker 2: those people are smart, they're screaming the opposite of what
Speaker 2: they screamed two weeks ago, and you're praising them for
Speaker 2: it with no explanation given that to me is the
Speaker 2: true sign of a sheep.
Speaker 1: For some reason, I was thinking about when Al Franken,
Speaker 1: the Senator from Minnesota who was one of the most
Speaker 1: beloved liberals in the US Senate. That picture came out
Speaker 1: of making a joke pretending the hank the hooters of
Speaker 1: a woman who's asleep, and man, if beheading was a thing,
Speaker 1: he would have been beheaded by his own crowd that week.
Speaker 2: Right right, I came across this comment by a Canadian
Speaker 2: writer about AOC's comment and what was woke, and he
Speaker 2: offered up a mega thread documenting the most deranged aerors
Speaker 2: of our time because he believes that when AOC declared
Speaker 2: woke went over and dismissively laughed, she was sending a
Speaker 2: calculated signal to the leftist rank and file that woke
Speaker 2: is now more of a political liability than a help,
Speaker 2: and it's time to pivot from that's not happening, that
Speaker 2: never happened to Okay, it was happening, but it wasn't
Speaker 2: that bad, so let's move on now woe. So anyway,
Speaker 2: he says, I'm creating a threads so you can all
Speaker 2: bookmarket and use it anytime says woke wasn't that big
Speaker 2: a deal, or it was just online Cooke's, or it
Speaker 2: was just about having empathy and being kind, and he mentions.
Speaker 2: You'll notice that not one of the examples in this
Speaker 2: thread are online cookes. Every single one is a major
Speaker 2: media company, and despite the catastrophic reputational loss in the
Speaker 2: last two decades, these companies are still very powerful and influential,
Speaker 2: and they still play a role in public opinion. So,
Speaker 2: without further what is woke? And we'll go through this
Speaker 2: fairly quickly. But woke was believing black people are so
Speaker 2: mentally weak in inferior. A common theme of this thread
Speaker 2: that activists pressured companies like Loreal to stop accurately describing
Speaker 2: their products for fear of what seeing the word white
Speaker 2: might do to their fragile intellects. Here's a headline from
Speaker 2: the Guardian Loreal to remove words like whitening from skin
Speaker 2: care products announcement. Announcement comes against backdrop of global anti
Speaker 2: racism protests.
Speaker 6: Oh that's hilarious.
Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd never heard better, forgotten it,
Speaker 1: but that is that is almost unbelievable.
Speaker 2: But I lived through it. Woke was a survival guide,
Speaker 2: and he gives one example of the hundreds of university
Speaker 2: guides entitled Surviving Whiteness and white people Happen to be
Speaker 2: Colorado State University put that out. Wok was planning a genocide?
Speaker 2: When is it okay to kill whites? Ask a and
Speaker 2: M philosophy professor Tommy Curry, and Woke was explicitly using
Speaker 2: the word genocide in the genocide planning, just so everyone
Speaker 2: heard the message loud and clear. And the professor behind
Speaker 2: the white genocide tweet says he has university support. It
Speaker 2: was canceling mozart. White mozart is a singular symbol of
Speaker 2: the white patriarchy. Let's see what publication was that The
Speaker 2: Times I Think of London reason Woke was firing museum
Speaker 2: curators for working with white artists. Here's a headline from
Speaker 2: the time. Who was actually in Let's see September twenty
Speaker 2: twenty museum curator resigns after he is accused of racism
Speaker 2: for saying he would still collect art from white men,
Speaker 2: not exclusively at all.
Speaker 7: Wow.
Speaker 2: Gary Garrels of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art
Speaker 2: was fired after I write employees said his firing is
Speaker 2: non negotiable. You got to fire him or we're all
Speaker 2: walking out because he said, well, yeah, I will still
Speaker 2: collect some art from white men.
Speaker 6: I think I remember talking about that, but I've forgotten it.
Speaker 2: That is so crazy. Woke was this headline in the
Speaker 2: UK moment transgender singer strips naked live on Channel four
Speaker 2: and plays the keyboard with her penis. Woke was using
Speaker 2: the phrase. Seems like the headline woke was the phrase
Speaker 2: her penis as well as platforming fetishistic men were clearly
Speaker 2: using the extreme permissiveness of the culture to force all
Speaker 2: of us to participate in their sex lives. Woke was
Speaker 2: CNN warning parents that Paw Patrol was fascist. The headline
Speaker 2: I remember this at the time, Why kids love fascist
Speaker 2: cartoons like Paw Patrol and Thomas the Tank Engine. Do
Speaker 2: you have a date on that one, Let's see December
Speaker 2: twenty two. That was actually twenty seventeen, so that was
Speaker 2: kind of early in the woke thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So how much do you think so the woke
Speaker 1: thing started pre pandemic, But how much did the pandemic
Speaker 1: and all the weirdness around that and people locked up
Speaker 1: in their homes and.
Speaker 6: Everything like that.
Speaker 1: Uh, energize it all, I wonder, because we're it was
Speaker 1: a crazy time. Without Woke, it would have been one
Speaker 1: of the craziest times of my life.
Speaker 2: And it was a very online time too. Yeah, so yeah,
Speaker 2: a lot. You know. Let me get to one more,
Speaker 2: just because I want to make sure we squeeze this in.
Speaker 2: Because this is something I despised at the time. I
Speaker 2: ranted about it at the time. I've despised it ever since.
Speaker 2: I despise it now I will despise it for the
Speaker 2: rest of my life. The ap AP's style is now
Speaker 2: to capitalize black word black in a racial, ethnic, or
Speaker 2: cultural sense, conveying an essential and shared sense of history,
Speaker 2: identity in the community among people identified as black, including
Speaker 2: those in the African diaspora and within Africa. Ap style
Speaker 2: will continue to lowercase the term white in racial, ethnic,
Speaker 2: and cultural senses. This decision follows the black move We
Speaker 2: consulted with a wide group of people internally and externally
Speaker 2: and decided this. As the writer puts it, Woke was
Speaker 2: insisting on capitalizing black when referring to black people because
Speaker 2: they have a shared sense of history, identity, and community.
Speaker 2: White will remain uncapitalized because white people being the soulless, rootless,
Speaker 2: disgusting ghouls that they are, do not get capitalized. Wolk
Speaker 2: was accusing fast food companies of killing black people because
Speaker 2: well salt, high blood pressure. Oh. Woke was telling a
Speaker 2: little three year old boy that he wasn't a boy,
Speaker 2: he was actually a girl trapped in a boy's body,
Speaker 2: and the cure for such a condition was blocking his
Speaker 2: puberty and perhaps castrating him from NPR at age three,
Speaker 2: transitioning from Jack to Jackie. Wolk was making an entire
Speaker 2: reality show and around another little boy he was told
Speaker 2: he was a girl when he was sixteen. His castration
Speaker 2: surgery provided content for the show. Woke was blaming white
Speaker 2: people for killing minorities because they have to breathe. Headline
Speaker 2: from the Guardian minorities in the US breathe and more
Speaker 2: air pollution caused by white people. This goes on for
Speaker 2: some time.
Speaker 1: That's the classic meteor wipes out earth. Uh black emine
Speaker 1: minority is hard t Yeah artist tip, Yeah, Okay, I've
Speaker 1: got my one real turning point, I think in my mind.
Speaker 1: But first we want to tell you about all the
Speaker 1: good stuff you should do for your dog with rough greens,
Speaker 1: because you probably take vitamins and watch what you eat
Speaker 1: and make sure you eat healthy. Are you making sure
Speaker 1: your dog eats healthy? How about their dog food? Not
Speaker 1: a lot of nutrients in it? Possibly, but there is
Speaker 1: if you sprinkle rough Greens on top.
Speaker 2: Of their Yeah, rough Greens fills the gap of nutrition
Speaker 2: and probiotics and all sorts of good stuff that the
Speaker 2: dog food leaves. It's America's number one dog supplement. Here's
Speaker 2: the best part. You don't change the thing about what
Speaker 2: you're already feeding them. You just sprinkle it on top.
Speaker 1: Yep live probiotics, digestive enzymes, omega oils, over twenty vitamins
Speaker 1: and minerals, all natural made in the USA, and you
Speaker 1: sprinkle it on top of your current dog's food. And
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you try it? Because it's free. All you
Speaker 1: pay is the shipping for the Jumpstart trial bag. That's
Speaker 1: go to you Go to Roughgreens dot com and use
Speaker 1: at armstrong are Uffgreens dot com.
Speaker 2: Thousands of dogs are moving better, feeling better, and living
Speaker 2: longer thanks to Roughgreens. Youre dog could be next. That's
Speaker 2: ruff greens dot com. Use the code armstrong and check
Speaker 2: out Roughgreens dot com code armstrong roughgreens. It doesn't replace
Speaker 2: your dog food, it makes it better. So one more thing,
Speaker 2: really really quickly, and they go into this Tremaine Carroll,
Speaker 2: violent California male prisoner decided he's a girl and one
Speaker 2: his court battle was placed in women's prison, where he
Speaker 2: promptly raped two female cell mates of his. And then
Speaker 2: woke was also in the press coverage using a pleasant looking,
Speaker 2: middle aged black lady probably picture in the story in
Speaker 2: the press because they knew using this rapist man's actual
Speaker 2: picture would cause less sympathy, so in mainstream media they
Speaker 2: just use the trial cartoon of this lady instead of
Speaker 2: the picture of this rapist man. And then finally the
Speaker 2: final insult, when he was brought to trial for the rapes,
Speaker 2: it was woke that the men demanded that the rape
Speaker 2: victims refer to the rapist as her and she in court.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, you'd have to shoot me to get
Speaker 6: me to do that.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: More on this one of the big turning points in
Speaker 1: my mind. I'll try to look up the exact date
Speaker 1: of when it happened, and any of your thoughts on
Speaker 1: the text line four one KFTC.
Speaker 6: You know what woke means.
Speaker 2: It means you're a loser.
Speaker 1: The armstrong and yetty, Okay, we're discussing the whole woke
Speaker 1: one was crazy.
Speaker 8: What.
Speaker 1: AOC trying to, you know, put an end to that
Speaker 1: whole controversy of things. We said, none of us believe
Speaker 1: that anymore or whatever. She was specifically referring to defund
Speaker 1: the police and what a numb nuts And no that
Speaker 1: was for anybody.
Speaker 6: Who said it.
Speaker 1: But I had forgotten this one. We talked about it
Speaker 1: a lot at the time because I've had in my
Speaker 1: mind for a long time. When The New York Times
Speaker 1: announced that intent doesn't matter, I consider that one of
Speaker 1: the big.
Speaker 6: Moments in the apocalypse. I mean, because.
Speaker 1: That's crazy if I say something and then you misinterpreted
Speaker 1: or whatever happens and you get upset, and I said, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I meant doesn't matter what I meant.
Speaker 6: Intent doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: They actually stated that explicitly, and the story that made
Speaker 1: that come about was their their science reporter Donald McNeil Jr.
Speaker 6: Who got fired by The Times over this years.
Speaker 1: Earlier, on a student trip because he's a professor on
Speaker 1: a student trip to Peru, had used the N word
Speaker 1: when discussing language in various countries and racial slurs and
Speaker 1: how they're used. He used it in the context of,
Speaker 1: for instance, the N word and said it became a
Speaker 1: word that in the United States blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: Years later, when the apocalypse is going on, some students
Speaker 1: came forward and said he said the N word once
Speaker 1: and everybody went nuts, and he said, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I was just discussing it. I'm not in favor of it.
Speaker 1: I was discussing it. We were having a conversation about
Speaker 1: racial slurs. And that's when The New York Times made
Speaker 1: After one hundred and fifty staffers signed a protest letter
Speaker 1: at the New York Times, The New York Times said,
Speaker 1: we do not tolerate racist language, regardless of intent. It
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what your intent was at all. It's how
Speaker 1: well I'll read their quote. It's irrelevant. What matters is
Speaker 1: how an act makes the victims feel. That's from the
Speaker 1: New York freaking Times. So Brett Stevens at the time,
Speaker 1: the Conservative using my finger quotes columnists for the New
Speaker 1: York Times wrote a piece on how crazy that was.
Speaker 1: That intent is everything, and basically the stuff that we've
Speaker 1: said for years you're going pre enlightenment. If you start
Speaker 1: talking about intent doesn't matter. I mean, you're into crazy.
Speaker 6: Brother.
Speaker 1: He wrote a piece about that New York Times. The
Speaker 1: New York Times would not publish it. One of their
Speaker 1: own columnists, they would not publish it. The New York
Speaker 1: Posts did publish it. I remember we read from it.
Speaker 1: The guy wasn't actually fired, but he was forced to resign.
Speaker 1: He had no choice.
Speaker 2: Here.
Speaker 1: Unfreaking believable that adults, intelligent in theory, adults.
Speaker 6: Could come to that conclusion.
Speaker 2: That is the full flower, though, of the Marxist technique
Speaker 2: that you call somebody racist, you take away their power.
Speaker 2: You take over their power. And if they say, whoa,
Speaker 2: I'm not racist, and I can prove it, here's precisely
Speaker 2: what I meant. Well, that's too many smart people can
Speaker 2: do that. So you tell them, and you tell the world.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter what he says. The word came out
Speaker 2: of his mouth. Therefore he's guilty. Therefore we take his power,
Speaker 2: we take his job, et cetera.
Speaker 6: The New York freaking Times.
Speaker 2: I know, intent doesn't What if the person I don't
Speaker 2: know is paranoid, is pretending to be offended so they
Speaker 2: can get me fired, or to take my job or
Speaker 2: my power or whatever. Does that matter? No, no, no,
Speaker 2: no no no. Intent doesn't matter. You're guilty. It's how
Speaker 2: you are accused. You are guilty.
Speaker 1: So you wouldn't even have to say that. You might
Speaker 1: just say the N word like I just did using
Speaker 1: the letter. If they feel bad, then that's enough. They
Speaker 1: went so crazy.
Speaker 8: Armstrong and get.
Speaker 5: The Armstrong and Getty show.
Speaker 1: So on the example we just gave from the Wolf
Speaker 1: Pockalypse and if you didn't hear it, get the podcast
Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getting on demand. But as a famous incident
Speaker 1: with The New York Times in which they stated that
Speaker 1: intent doesn't matter, which is nuts. Uh. I feel like
Speaker 1: I couldn't be pressured into that to go along with it.
Speaker 2: Nope, But am I lying.
Speaker 6: To myself about that?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 1: Doctor Jordan Peterson, he regularly says, if you think you
Speaker 1: couldn't have become a Nazi or part of the cultural revolutionary,
Speaker 1: I suppose this you're you're lying to yourself. Look, I mean,
Speaker 1: just history has proven people are susceptible to these these waves,
Speaker 1: and you need to you need to admit to yourself
Speaker 1: that could happen to you.
Speaker 2: And to be on guard for it. But I've given
Speaker 2: the right circumstances.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah, maybe on a different topic or something
Speaker 1: that I can't quite imagine because I can't picture myself
Speaker 1: falling for it. But you know, I haven't been surrounded
Speaker 1: by all of a sudden, all my coworkers and friends
Speaker 1: are saying, no, black.
Speaker 6: Is white, What are you nuts? Black is white?
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna continue to stand there and say, no,
Speaker 1: it's not.
Speaker 2: I'll bet somewhere there's some genius who's put together a
Speaker 2: matrix or a rubric or a paradigm or an algorithm
Speaker 2: to explain, you know, the various things that need to combine,
Speaker 2: a combination of just personality type. Because there's some people
Speaker 2: you can do to anything. They're just they're sheep. They
Speaker 2: go along to get along. There are some people who
Speaker 2: aren't exactly, but they're young, they're much more impressionable. The
Speaker 2: woke thing. You know, we're both real individualists and not
Speaker 2: joiners exactly. And it came along later in life, and
Speaker 2: so the idea that no, if you just out of
Speaker 2: the words, its intent doesn't matter. All of my life experienced,
Speaker 2: my philosophy, everything I've read, I mean it just it
Speaker 2: hit a brick wall of No, that's ridiculous. But you know,
Speaker 2: if you're young and impressionable and kind of a sheepy person, yeah,
Speaker 2: I could see going along with it. And myself is
Speaker 2: an angry young man, say my country has been defeated
Speaker 2: in war and our economy's crumbling and exciting new leaders
Speaker 2: say you shouldn't be ashamed of who you are. You
Speaker 2: should be proud of it, and we're gonna get them,
Speaker 2: and here's who's to blame. Is it possible a person
Speaker 2: would fall for that, even a person like me? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I suppose so. I suppose so I would hope whise
Speaker 2: in benevolent old graveyater did the fellows like myself though,
Speaker 2: Mike grab me by the ear and say, dude, here's
Speaker 2: why that's wrong, which is what we're trying to do.
Speaker 1: There are different categories, and then we'll get back into
Speaker 1: the wolfpacoblips and how it's not something you should just
Speaker 1: be able to laugh off the.
Speaker 6: Way Ao seeded crazy.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it was crazy. People lost their jobs,
Speaker 1: people got killed. Oh it was crazy. You're young, you
Speaker 1: don't know anybody. You get swept up with the mania
Speaker 1: all your friends are doing it.
Speaker 6: Okay, that's one thing.
Speaker 1: But the New York Times management originally stood by that
Speaker 1: science reporter. Then when the one hundred and fifty probably
Speaker 1: young staffers wrote that letter, then they changed their mind.
Speaker 1: That crowd is who I hate the most. That crowd
Speaker 1: that knew better. Whether you're the people at Nike at
Speaker 1: a certain level of management or whoever you are, the
Speaker 1: people that know better.
Speaker 6: But you're freaking cowards. I hate you so much.
Speaker 1: Young and impressionable people falling for getting swept up probably
Speaker 1: could happen to anybody different category than the cowards who
Speaker 1: knew better but went along with destroying people because it
Speaker 1: was convenient for him.
Speaker 2: I couldn't hate you more or profitable. Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 2: can picture the thinking inside the walls of the corporate castle. Hey,
Speaker 2: the mob is howling this. Tell them we agree with him,
Speaker 2: and give him some money and pretend we agree with
Speaker 2: him for a while, and they'll go away and bother
Speaker 2: somebody else. I guess that's the thinking.
Speaker 1: You probably use the example of our friend Grant and
Speaker 1: Napier next week.
Speaker 6: Last week talking about no never got into it.
Speaker 1: He basketball announcer, lifetime basketball announcer for one of your
Speaker 1: NBA franchises. Hard job to get, very cool job, hi
Speaker 1: paying job, very good job. Lost it because he said
Speaker 1: all lives matter during the whole George Floyd thing. He
Speaker 1: got baited into it. A player tweets at him, do
Speaker 1: you think black lives matter? He responds, I think all
Speaker 1: lives matter. Boom, you gotta get fired. And was amazing
Speaker 1: to me. Getting back to the people, I really hate.
Speaker 1: People that had known him for decades didn't stand up
Speaker 1: for him. Right, who didn't say no, I've known this
Speaker 1: guy for years. He's not a racist, and why is
Speaker 1: that racist?
Speaker 6: Anyway?
Speaker 1: His his intent was, Because I believe intent does matter,
Speaker 1: his intent was no nobody should be punished by the cops.
Speaker 6: For blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: That was the intent.
Speaker 1: Right anybody who went along with that out of cowardice, Oh,
Speaker 1: you are such a weak human being. I have contempt
Speaker 1: for you on a level that is, you can't have
Speaker 1: higher level.
Speaker 2: Of contempt love it. Agree completely. So a couple of
Speaker 2: things before we continue the list of what was woke?
Speaker 2: One and I think, what, No, you know what? No,
Speaker 2: that's not actually helping that he has no idea what
Speaker 2: he's talking about. And I'm tired of him go away.
Speaker 2: So what I was explaining about how if you can
Speaker 2: be found guilt by the mob, they take your power,
Speaker 2: your position, whatever, and they sweep you aside, and everybody
Speaker 2: becomes more and more terrified of standing up to them
Speaker 2: what Jack was saying. But a great illustration of it.
Speaker 2: There's an iron rand quote from Atlas Shrugg where you know,
Speaker 2: the good guy is talking to one of the bad guys,
Speaker 2: and one of the bad guys, doctor Ferriss says, do
Speaker 2: you really think we want those laws observed? We want
Speaker 2: them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that
Speaker 2: it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against.
Speaker 2: We're after power, and we mean it. There's no way
Speaker 2: to rule innocent men. The only power any government has
Speaker 2: is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when
Speaker 2: there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so
Speaker 2: many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible
Speaker 2: for men to live without breaking laws, and goes on
Speaker 2: that we're not gonna enforce them objectively or whatever, We're
Speaker 2: just gonna create a nation of lawbreakers and then cash in,
Speaker 2: meaning if you I'm okay, there you are in a meeting,
Speaker 2: you have an opinion. Perhaps it is contrary to that person.
Speaker 2: If that person can convince everybody in the room that
Speaker 2: you're a racist, in an awful person, you don't count anymore.
Speaker 2: You're like the the Ayn Ran novel. You're a criminal now,
Speaker 2: and criminals don't get to talk, so shut up. So
Speaker 2: they enacted a criminal code where all at tuck who
Speaker 2: was an accusation, because the accusation was always right. If
Speaker 2: you were offended or pretending to be offended, then you're right.
Speaker 2: That person's wrong. They're a criminal, and they will shut up.
Speaker 2: We will enforce that for you. That's exactly what was
Speaker 2: going on. Despised it at the time. Despise it. Now
Speaker 2: back to our list of what was woke one after
Speaker 2: a quick word from Simply Safe simply say celebrating their
Speaker 2: twentieth anniversary.
Speaker 6: Oh I didn't know that.
Speaker 2: How the companies come so far, And it's great to
Speaker 2: have our home protected while we're home and while we're not.
Speaker 2: Most traditional security systems don't do a thing while the
Speaker 2: trespasser is walking up your driveway, lurking in your yard,
Speaker 2: looking through your windows. They wait until the window was
Speaker 2: smashed and the damage is done. We all know seconds
Speaker 2: counting an emergency, and you can't just sit around waiting
Speaker 2: for a siren to scare someone off. Simply say, builds
Speaker 2: a perimeter of defense around your property to stop the
Speaker 2: threat before it ever reaches your door or your window.
Speaker 1: Man, I sure liked being on vacation knowing I had
Speaker 1: a house sitter, but also had Simply Safe protecting my
Speaker 1: home and everything, and the cameras and the sensors and everything.
Speaker 6: That is Simply Safe.
Speaker 1: And you can order it online and it's so simple,
Speaker 1: and you can set it up yourself. It's so simple,
Speaker 1: and there's no contract or anything like that because they
Speaker 1: think you're gonna like the product so much you'll stay
Speaker 1: with it like I have.
Speaker 2: You got smart AI powered outdoor cameras detecting the suspicious
Speaker 2: activity at the perimeter. They alert US based live agents
Speaker 2: to step in, and the agents assess the threat, intervening
Speaker 2: through the outdoor camera to scare off the trespassers called
Speaker 2: nine to one one dispatch. Whatever you need right now,
Speaker 2: you can get sixty percent off on your new Simply
Speaker 2: Safe system. It's simply Safe dot com slash Strong celebrating
Speaker 2: that anniversary with sixty percent off at Simplysafe dot com,
Speaker 2: slash Armstrong plus when you order right in our show
Speaker 2: name in the how did you hear about a survey
Speaker 2: to let them know we sent you. Don't forget there's
Speaker 2: no safelight, simply safe. So what was woke one that
Speaker 2: we're all supposed to laugh off? Well, we started the
Speaker 2: list earlier in the hour. I hope you were here
Speaker 2: if you didn't gravit by a podcast Armstrong and Getty
Speaker 2: on demand. Let's go on. Woke was telling white people
Speaker 2: the racist if they're attracted to black people. Is your
Speaker 2: sexual desire for black people racist? Three questions reveal the truth.
Speaker 2: You're also told that Woke was telling white people the
Speaker 2: racist if they're not attracted to black people. Conveniently, I
Speaker 2: could go into details, but who has the time. Wolk
Speaker 2: was telling black people they're dumb and it would be
Speaker 2: unfair to hold them to the same academic standards as
Speaker 2: white people. Chicago Tribune is math racist? New course outlines
Speaker 2: prompt conversations about identity and race in Seattle classrooms.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: The National Association Basketball Coach called the SAT and Act
Speaker 2: long standing symbols of institutional racism. Oh, and also black
Speaker 2: people are inferior musicians too. Headline from The New York Times.
Speaker 2: To make orchestras more diverse, end blind auditions because the
Speaker 2: audition process should take into account race, gender, and other factors.
Speaker 6: Of course, to make music that makes sense.
Speaker 2: Woke was racist dogs from psychology today? Can dogs be
Speaker 2: racist and racist? To viruses? If coronavirus doesn't discriminate, how
Speaker 2: come black people are bearing the brunt blah blah blah
Speaker 2: from some publication racist women Women have always been a
Speaker 2: part of white supremacy and especially racist tomboys. This is
Speaker 2: from what is this publication? Litthub the racist history of
Speaker 2: celebrating the American tomboy, come to think of it. Just
Speaker 2: to save space, let's bulk all the things. List all
Speaker 2: the things that are racist. Jesus, chess, golf tournaments, cow's milk,
Speaker 2: and they show examples Lord of the Rings, cereal boxes,
Speaker 2: soap talking while white reaction memes with black people in them,
Speaker 2: peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, jogging, interior design, students who
Speaker 2: look away, surfing the Smurfs. All of these major stories
Speaker 2: and headlines in major publication publications also racist. Mary Poppins,
Speaker 2: classical music, earthquake signs, soap so.
Speaker 1: I know, you're bothered by the implication that woke is over,
Speaker 1: because woke is still alive. But you gotta admit the
Speaker 1: peak of woke is over.
Speaker 2: Don't you the peak of that particular set of strategies,
Speaker 2: because that was so.
Speaker 1: Insane there for what about two three years, it was
Speaker 1: just well, the stuff you just listed, I mean that
Speaker 1: stuff is crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, oh, you're absolutely right. I don't really take
Speaker 2: any satisfaction in it, because this is seriously an ideological
Speaker 2: war for Western civilization with the far leftist in the
Speaker 2: Islamists ganging up and that particular set of strategies has gone.
Speaker 2: But it's like you're being in a war and you say, oh,
Speaker 2: thank god, that front of the battle has died down,
Speaker 2: and somebody will say they're over there. They're just over
Speaker 2: there now shooting at us. So yeah, that's the way
Speaker 2: I feel about it.
Speaker 6: I am.
Speaker 1: A lot of those crazy things. I don't think you
Speaker 1: could get an article published today. But the you know,
Speaker 1: the fundamental the US is a bad country, don't offend Islam.
Speaker 6: All that sort of stuff still exists.
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially in education, from kindergarteners to fifth graders to
Speaker 2: college students, they're still being taught the completely now laughably
Speaker 2: woke stuff to a large extent. Some colleges have toned
Speaker 2: it down a little bit, partly because they know they're
Speaker 2: getting a lot of scrutiny. But yeah, it's still being
Speaker 2: taught with every bit of the energy and lust and
Speaker 2: hardcore ideology that it was four or five years ago.
Speaker 2: Woke one was crazy, Woke continues to be crazy and
Speaker 2: insidious and evil, and it's still fighting as hard as
Speaker 2: it can.
Speaker 5: Woke one was crazy.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's just putting an ice pick in Trotzky's eye
Speaker 2: and adapting communism.
Speaker 1: And the fact that Jonathan Carl on ABC just kind
Speaker 1: of like moved on with the conversation as opposed to
Speaker 1: say what was like?
Speaker 6: You just kind of YadA YadA YadA.
Speaker 2: Woke, which was a really big thing. Can we get
Speaker 2: back to that? And you were the sexy little queen
Speaker 2: of it? How do you feel about that?
Speaker 6: Can we give go through some of the examples. In
Speaker 6: addition to defund the police?
Speaker 2: Wow, what will defund the police look like? It'll look
Speaker 2: like the suburbs? Oh lord, you don't get to just
Speaker 2: walk away from that and chuckle.
Speaker 5: Woke one was crazy.
Speaker 6: So I'm on the zep bound. Now the golp one.
Speaker 1: I want to talk to Katie's about her experience with
Speaker 1: her golp one, so I know what I got coming.
Speaker 6: Do I have explosive.
Speaker 1: Diary on the way or any minute now through fine
Speaker 1: constipation or blinding.
Speaker 2: Headaches or both of you? Yes both.
Speaker 6: That's a trick among other things on the way, stay here.
Speaker 7: Arm Strong.
Speaker 5: The Armstrong and Getty show.
Speaker 2: McDonald's reportedly track customer loyalty that predicts how predicts how often.
Speaker 8: They'd return or what they'd order.
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, waffle House is tracking customers in order to return
Speaker 2: their teeth. They get the fights all the time.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, so we got this message on one of
Speaker 1: our many messaging sites.
Speaker 6: Earlier. Jack disappeared for a few minutes. I did.
Speaker 1: I was dropping my son off at first day of school.
Speaker 1: Jack disappeared for a few minutes. Wonder if it's golp
Speaker 1: one diarrhea. It was not, but thanks thanks for being
Speaker 1: concerned about me. I announced earlier in the show, and
Speaker 1: you'll have to go back and listen to it. I'm
Speaker 1: on the zip bound now for I started it yesterday.
Speaker 1: Total time between it pops into my head. I should
Speaker 1: look into that and then started like googling and injecting
Speaker 1: myself with the drug.
Speaker 2: I think it was like seventeen hours or something.
Speaker 6: I mean, I had no idea it was that on
Speaker 6: a weekend, I wasn't even on weekdays. On a weekend,
Speaker 6: I was able to pull that off.
Speaker 1: So that's how easy it is to get on those drugs.
Speaker 1: And I don't really have any reason to be on
Speaker 1: it at all, And so you can get on it
Speaker 1: if you want.
Speaker 2: But Katie, you've been on which one for a while.
Speaker 7: I am on Manjuro Monjuro, which is the same thing
Speaker 7: as that bound.
Speaker 6: Okay, how long you been on it?
Speaker 8: A month and a week?
Speaker 6: Do you notice a difference, like I'm I did.
Speaker 1: The research says that I should notice today not really
Speaker 1: thinking about food much and having to remind myself too eat.
Speaker 6: Have you had that experience?
Speaker 8: Yes, I have had that experience.
Speaker 7: And also when I eat something, I'm eating a significant
Speaker 7: less amount of it. I'm not finishing my plate.
Speaker 1: So the like I'm eating pizza and I have two
Speaker 1: pieces and I'm full, I'm comfortably full, but I still
Speaker 1: want to eat more pizza.
Speaker 6: That goes away with this, Yeah, with me, it has Wow, I.
Speaker 1: Want to test that out. I might have to get
Speaker 1: my most delicious pizza tonight. And just because I'm interested
Speaker 1: in the psychology of how it affects.
Speaker 7: It makes you not feel good after a certain point.
Speaker 7: At least that's been my experience.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just gonna ask, are you nauseated or are
Speaker 2: you uninterested?
Speaker 6: It's different things.
Speaker 8: It's a slight nausea. At least for me.
Speaker 7: It's like, oh my gosh, if I eat anymore, I'm
Speaker 7: gonna get sick. Of course, Yeah, all all side effects
Speaker 7: are always different for everybody. Yeah, then you're you just
Speaker 7: had a baby, so you got all kinds of things
Speaker 7: going on.
Speaker 2: Well, is that the side effect or is that the purpose?
Speaker 2: I'm not sure that's a side effect.
Speaker 1: I don't think you're supposed to feel nauseous to keep
Speaker 1: you from eating more, are you. That's not what I
Speaker 1: had heard.
Speaker 6: I thought your desire to eat more went away. I
Speaker 6: don't I don't want to.
Speaker 2: Maybe your fake rubber stamp doctor didn't mention it to
Speaker 2: you online.
Speaker 7: Also, I think your fake rubber stamp doctor had your
Speaker 7: dosage wrong as well, because you said you have to
Speaker 7: take yours once a month.
Speaker 8: I'm pretty sure it's once a week.
Speaker 6: If I said once a month, I misspoke.
Speaker 1: It's once a week yet, okay, yeah, every every Sunday,
Speaker 1: I'll take it. Yeah, uh yeah, I met once a week. No,
Speaker 1: the I thought the original idea was, and I guess
Speaker 1: I'll find out today it's a carrot rather than a stick.
Speaker 1: The carrot was kind of like, I just I just
Speaker 1: don't feel like eating more as opposed to the stick
Speaker 1: of I feel.
Speaker 2: Like I'm gonna throw up more a clockwork orange technique
Speaker 2: ancient movie reference. Watching it's great.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and in reference to like sitting down for a meal,
Speaker 7: it definitely makes you want to eat less. But I
Speaker 7: will say, like the urge to snack is pretty much
Speaker 7: gone because I'm a big snack person.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't wait to find out. And it starts
Speaker 1: working immediately, so I should know today. I must say,
Speaker 1: I'm quite a few hours into the day and I
Speaker 1: haven't thought about eating.
Speaker 6: But I don't usually anyway, so if that tells me anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the only thing I fear with all of those
Speaker 2: deals is the old weight set point thing where I'm
Speaker 2: gonna once again lose a bunch of weight and convince
Speaker 2: my brain even more that Oh my god, slow his
Speaker 2: metabolism down. We've got to save every single.
Speaker 6: Calorie for the rest of his days on earth.
Speaker 2: Because he's starving. And make it even worse. If I'm
Speaker 2: ever off this stuff, how.
Speaker 6: I'm gonna stand on the rest of my life. That's
Speaker 6: my plan.
Speaker 2: M good plan. I have no idea.
Speaker 6: I'll have to ask my doctor.
Speaker 2: Your fake online rubber stamp doctor.
Speaker 1: Yeah, using my finger ques doctor, next time I talk
Speaker 1: to my doctor. We have such a close relationship after
Speaker 1: our ninety second zoom call yesterday.
Speaker 2: And exactly, you'd be better off seeing doctor Jill.
Speaker 1: Wrong doctor doctor, I never forget.
Speaker 6: Uh, it's it's funny.
Speaker 2: I thought that they would. I thought that they.
Speaker 1: Would work harder to make it seem like we were
Speaker 1: having a real doctor's appointment, and they were really concerned
Speaker 1: with anything other than making sure I own a credit card,
Speaker 1: which seemed to be the main concern.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Shocking. Yeah, whether it's that or the boner pills
Speaker 2: or whatever, Yeah, that's pretty much the technique.
Speaker 6: But well, boner pills is a simple one. You know,
Speaker 6: I want a boner, Give me a boner.
Speaker 2: Here's your pills. Oh boy, hey, hey, hey
