It language. 83 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: There was no there's a reporter here in Juno for 84 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 3: the Juno Empire, and so she had entered a short 85 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 3: She wrote a short story and then she entered it 86 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 3: into this thing that that had the Clinquet language as 87 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 3: an option, and then she sent it to me. She said, 88 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 3: could you just take a look at this and I said, well, 89 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 3: those are words, but it's just grabbing words and just 90 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 3: putting them at random, including my name, like my name 91 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 3: was in the story like ten times. And so I said, wow, 92 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: it's just complete gibberish. It makes no sense. 93 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 2: So the computer like from it, from it trying to 94 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 2: glean information about cling it that it found your name, 95 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: and it's like, okay, so this must also be part 96 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: of the mix. Yeah, yeah, and here we go, here's 97 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: your story. Wait, how didn't you read what? 98 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: It was? 99 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 3: Truly out of order, just like yeah, salad. Yeah, there's 100 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 3: a couple of words. But like one of the big 101 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: problems is when you change a verb in our language 102 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 3: is it changes a lot. And so to be able 103 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 3: to man you could you could develop something that could 104 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 3: manufacture stuff in our language, but you would have to 105 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 3: spend a lot of hours. And so what it seems 106 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 3: like it did is found a dictionary and just sort 107 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 3: of grab words but never really looked at what they mean, 108 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 3: I guess, And so it's just like here's a bunch 109 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 3: of words, here's a word, salad, and that's your story. 110 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 2: So you know, task complete. Yeah, I mean that's good 111 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: to get to know that AI is still right now, 112 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 2: it's only fucking up like English. 113 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, and so, but it's probably coming for everything eventually. 114 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 3: And so, but maybe maybe there's a world where you 115 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 3: have someone to talk to. Because with our language, we 116 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 3: have about forty people left who could speak, so it 117 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 3: does get pretty scary. And we have a language north 118 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 3: of us that's called Eyak that lost its last living 119 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 3: bird speaker. And when she was the only speaker for 120 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 3: quite a while, she would say, I talked to my TV, 121 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 3: I talked to the walls. I talk to God, and 122 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 3: nobody talks to me. So like what we're trying to 123 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 3: do is like keep that from happening. So I started 124 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: with a Taylor Swift take on a Taylor Swift song 125 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 3: because I thought, maybe if we can get the Swifties 126 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 3: and the Beehive on board with decolonization, right, like, they've 127 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 3: got so much energy and commitment, and so I think 128 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 3: maybe we'll get somewhere. 129 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it definitely makes sense for Taylor Swift. 130 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: I feel like she her career has gone from being 131 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: just like ah shucks. 132 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 2: I don't know. 133 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: I guess I'm just kind of a good songwriter to 134 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: like she We've like witnessed her waking up a little 135 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: bit to the complexities of the modern world. So I 136 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: don't know at least private Yeah, you know, which isn't 137 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: isn't that? 138 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 2: Yes, That's why I got those new albums Private Equities, 139 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: because Taylor's version Baby Private Equity, all lines go back there. 140 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: Even a bro clock you know. 141 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 2: Yeah serious? 142 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: All right, well who and we're going to get to 143 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: know you a little bit better in a moment. First, 144 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: we're going to tell our listeners a couple of the 145 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: things we're talking about. We got a couple like word 146 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: doc length tweets truths from Donald Trump, just like freak outs, 147 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: So we're going to talk about that. But the big 148 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: thing we're going to talk about is we finally found 149 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: undeniable evidence that we live in the matrix. This TikTok 150 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: video of a person being frozen, like standing frozen for 151 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: I'd say two seconds, and everyone's like, whoa impossible NPC 152 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: right there.

And I will talk about that, we'll 159 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: talk about why people want to believe that you might 160 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: talk Avatar Whu Nay.

So you guys 174 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 3: should have one out of every four guests on your 175 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 3: show be Indigenous or somewhere in between there and one 176 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 3: out of every hundred. So when Avatar two came out 177 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 3: the water thing, I was like, oh, maybe they'll bring 178 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 3: on an Indigenous person to give their perspective about Avatar, 179 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 3: and I'll give you my perspective, and to be fair, 180 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 3: I've never seen any of them. But here's my two 181 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 3: sentence review of the first Avatar. One Indigenous people are 182 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,599 Speaker 3: not blue and two white people did not stop colonization. 183 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,599 Speaker 3: And so I think there's a bit of a fantasy 184 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 3: world that we see quite a bit, Like it's kind 185 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 3: of teased and dances with wolves and it's teased, and 186 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 3: a lot of kind of Native American films that still 187 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 3: center whiteness. It's like there's this sort of portrayal of 188 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 3: colonization and white people like fighting against it, right, which 189 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 3: did happen? But maybe that was like one out of 190 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 3: every ten thousan yes. 191 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: Right, something like that. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, you'll 192 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:05,959 Speaker 2: get into it. 193 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 3: No spoilers in my review though. 194 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh I'm going big spoilers. 195 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 4: We're going deep. 196 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: But yeah, so we'll talk about that plenty more. But 197 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: before we get to any of that, Khune, doctor Twitchell, 198 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: we do like to ask our guests, what is something 199 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: from your search history that's revealing about who you are? 200 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I was going through my search history and 201 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 3: actually the one thing that I want to look at 202 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 3: is how many Native American remains human remains are in 203 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 3: museums and universities. Because I went to a training once 204 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 3: on this law called NAGPRA, and NAGPRA is the Native 205 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 3: American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, And so one of 206 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 3: the things I think about is when you make a law, 207 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 3: there's like some reason for it. And so there's a 208 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 3: great quote by an author named Walter Echohawk who said, 209 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 3: if you dig up graves, you go to jail, but 210 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 3: if you dig up Native American graves, you get a PhD. 211 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 3: And so, you know, I was thinking about this because 212 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 3: I was at this training because NEKRA does two things. 213 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 3: One it says you cannot dig up Native American graves, 214 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 3: right and so low key. When the Queen of England 215 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 3: passed away, I wasn't trying to be disrespectful, but I 216 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 3: was thinking, are they going to send parts of her 217 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 3: to kind of different colonized places because they have lots 218 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 3: lots of our people in their museums and their stuff. 219 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 3: But so it says you cannot dig up Native American graves. 220 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 3: And the other thing that it says is if Native 221 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 3: American people can identify something in a museum that belongs 222 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 3: to them. There's they can get it back. It doesn't 223 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 3: mean they will get it back, but they can get 224 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 3: it back. And so that's the repatriation part. So I 225 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 3: was at a training for this and our trainer said, 226 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 3: and I don't know if he was accurate on this 227 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 3: after I did some research, but it was still jaw dropping. 228 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 3: He said, they're about two million Native Americans on the 229 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 3: earth today, and this is in two thousand and six. 230 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 3: He said, there are more Native American remains human remains 231 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 3: in museums and universities than there are walking the earth 232 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 3: today Jesus Christ. And so I'm not sure if that's 233 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 3: the accurate thing, but I do know it's well over 234 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 3: one hundred thousand people. And sometimes it's a brain and 235 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 3: sometimes it's like a finger, or they would they would 236 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 3: chop someone up and send them to different parts. Like 237 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 3: there was someone who resisted people taking their land in 238 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 3: the East Coast. He was called King Philip, and that 239 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 3: was the English name that he was given, and he 240 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 3: was chopped up and sent to like his head went 241 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 3: to Boston and like his hands went somewhere. And so 242 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 3: these are some things that I think about because We're 243 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 3: always trying to get stuff back, and I'm always trying 244 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: to let people know the depth of what colonization is, 245 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 3: which is why decolonization is a thing to embrace. And 246 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 3: one of those things is because it's a complete separation 247 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 3: of people and humanity. And so I think for some 248 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 3: people they'll say, well, these people are not humans, so 249 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 3: we could do whatever we want to them because they're 250 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 3: not Christian, they're not being saved by God, right. But 251 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 3: the reality is, like I think people separated themselves from 252 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 3: their concept of being human beings and humanity, and so 253 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 3: decolonization reconnects the people, the descendants of the folks who 254 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 3: were making those decisions to take everybody's stuff and keep 255 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 3: them from speaking their languages and take their children and 256 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 3: do all this other stuff. So it's not fun stuff 257 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 3: to google. And so I'll give you like one more 258 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 3: because someone send me a message said, do you guys 259 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 3: feel the earthquake? I was like, well, I live in 260 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 3: Alaska and that was a big earthquake, but it was 261 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 3: nineteen hundred miles away, so it's about the distance from 262 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 3: Los Angeles to New Orleans, and so would you feel 263 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 3: about you know, so call someone in New Orleans say 264 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 3: did you guys feel that earthquake? And I'd be like, no, bro, 265 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 3: I was like just sitting here. And so Alaska's a 266 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 3: big place. 267 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: Is Alaska's fucking huge, isn't it? Like it's the biggest 268 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: state by orders of magnitude. Yeah, like orders of magnitude. 269 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: It's so much bigger than like Texas is way bigger 270 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: than like my brain can possibly wrap itsself around with. 271 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: Like I've driven through Texas. I've like like flown around Texas, 272 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: like gone from one airport to the next, and it's like, oh, 273 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: it's like an hour and a half flight. Like that's 274 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: like going from you know, many states over and Texas 275 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: like fits into a corner of Alaska. Alaska is that's 276 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: Alaska on top of the United States. Yeah, it's like 277 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: the entire Midwest. 278 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 2: Like eight yeah, it is, right, Yeah, and almost all 279 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 2: of Florida too. Yeah. If you actually extend it down, 280 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: it's amazing. 281 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a big in So yeah, you can go 282 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 3: nineteen hundred miles and you're still you know, like that's 283 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 3: just air miles. Like if you just got in a 284 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 3: little plane and just run for nineteen hundred miles, you 285 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 3: could still be in Alaska. 286 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: So do you have to be pretty comfortable with getting 287 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: in little planes and flowing or do you do you 288 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: do that? 289 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 3: Well, my grandma she wouldn't, and so we'd have to. 290 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 3: You know, we have a ferry system that goes through 291 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 3: here that's become unreliable and unstable, but it's it's been 292 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 3: wonderful because you could put your car onto the ferry 293 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 3: and then you could go because where we live you can't. 294 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 3: You got like forty miles of road here and that's 295 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 3: or maybe sixty uh, but you you can go to 296 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 3: the end of the road in four different spots and 297 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 3: that's all you can really do. And so for some 298 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 3: people that gets really tough for them. You can get 299 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 3: a boat and then you could go somewhere. But we 300 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 3: do have a ferry where you could put your car 301 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 3: onto the boat and then you could drive out from 302 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 3: Skagway or Hanes or go down into Canada. But small 303 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 3: planes are a thing here, and they are they could 304 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 3: be pretty scary. So one time I was living in 305 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 3: Skagway and we had sixty mile an hour gus, you know, 306 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 3: gusting up to eighty miles an hour. So I called 307 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 3: the airline, I said, are you guys art flying today, 308 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 3: are you? Because I'm supposed to go to this little 309 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 3: town called Petersburg And they said, we're not, but these 310 00:15:59,000 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 3: other guys are. 311 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: They're pretty drunk. 312 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 3: But I said why why and they said, well, oh no, 313 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 3: it's it's no problem. Like our plane the wings are 314 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 3: on the top, and they're plane the wings are on 315 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 3: the bottom, so they could fly in higher winds. And 316 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 3: I said, okay, I'll call them, and you know, they said, 317 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 3: oh yeah, well we'll fly. And the wind was blown 318 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 3: so hard that when that plane took off into the wind, 319 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 3: it felt like the plane just went straight up in 320 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 3: the air like a helicopter and then turned around and 321 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 3: then we just got blown down to Juno, which usually 322 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 3: takes an hour, but it took us about twenty five minutes. 323 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 2: You just like lifted up and then rode the stream. 324 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, like very close to the ocean, like we fly 325 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 3: over the ocean. It's wintertime. The ocean's probably about you know, 326 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 3: forty degrees, so it was Yeah, it was an eye 327 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 3: opening experience. 328 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: Right, that's so cool. I'm very scared of small planes 329 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: for for some reason, but I've been in like a 330 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: couple of them, and it's they really move around the 331 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: lot up there. Little planes are really Yeah, it turns 332 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: out those things are really going up and down quite 333 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: a bit. 334 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 3: But yeah, and we got some that land right on 335 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 3: the ocean right so the floatplanes are here. And so 336 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 3: the one time I took a floatplane, I went to 337 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,919 Speaker 3: this village called Cassane, which has about forty sixty people. 338 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 3: Amazing village. And so the first time I was going there, 339 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 3: I flew to catch a can. So you take a 340 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 3: larger plane to catch a can. And then I was 341 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 3: going to get on the small floatplanes. And I get 342 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,679 Speaker 3: on and we take off and we get in the 343 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 3: air and the pilot turns to me and he says, 344 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 3: so where's Casan? And I said, hey, you're the pilot. Man, 345 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: Like you are the pilot, you know you need to 346 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 3: And he's like, is it over by this place or 347 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 3: is it by that place? I was like, bro, I've 348 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 3: never been like this is this is literally your job. 349 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: It's just so much more casual. It's like an uber Yeah, 350 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 1: And he says, how do you want me to go 351 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: to Lax? 352 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:52,360 Speaker 2: Yeah? 353 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:56,199 Speaker 3: I think I remember, And he nailed it, he got it, so, 354 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 3: you know, good on him. 355 00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 2: I just love that kind of confidence. So too, you're 356 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 2: up in the air. All right, So generally, where are 357 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 2: we going right now? Okay? Okay, yeah, I got I 358 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 2: gotta go, got it? 359 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 1: You are the pilot. What is something do you think 360 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: is overrated? 361 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:10,959 Speaker 2: Okay? 362 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 3: So my overrated is using the term western in academics 363 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 3: and arts to code whiteness. And so people people do 364 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 3: this stuff like they'll say Western and Eastern, and this 365 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 3: becomes the sort of one thing or the other that 366 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 3: you use to talk to, Yeah, like you know, Western 367 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 3: science and they'll say Western art or Western and use 368 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 3: and it's it's tough to get Yeah, it's tough to 369 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 3: get out of because for that if if there's Western 370 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 3: and Eastern, then what about Africa and what about Native Americans? 371 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 3: And what where do these things fit? And I think 372 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 3: it's a way to sort of if we look at 373 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 3: how colonization entrenches and normalizes certain things, it does it 374 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 3: through these mechanisms to say, well, if it's not one 375 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 3: of these things and it doesn't fit, and so it's 376 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 3: something that we study instead of something that we it 377 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 3: becomes foundational to our own education. And this is one 378 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 3: of the reasons why I think people generally don't study 379 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 3: indigenous peoples. Like, if you graduate high school, do you 380 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 3: know the name of the people who lived where you 381 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 3: were or where you are and they're still there? Do 382 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 3: you know what their language is? You can you name 383 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 3: five people who have done historically significant things who are 384 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 3: indigenous to that particular place, you know? And I think 385 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 3: about these things everywhere I go, you know. And so 386 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 3: I think about this stuff as well, because colonization is 387 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 3: forever dehumanizing indigenous peoples. And one time someone asked me 388 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 3: for an example, I said, well, I went to a 389 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 3: gathering of high school government leaders from across the state 390 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 3: of Alaska. So these are probably high performing academic kids 391 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 3: who are you know, they're young, and so it's not 392 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 3: on them, but it is on their teachers, and it's 393 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 3: more so on the system. So I showed him a 394 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 3: picture of a guy named William Paul, and I said, 395 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 3: can anybody here tell me who this person is? And 396 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 3: there's about one hundred to one hundred and fifty people there, 397 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 3: including teachers from all these different schools, and not a 398 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 3: single person could tell me who that was. And I said, well, 399 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 3: this is a clinket man named William Paul. It is 400 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 3: Clinkett name was Shkundi, and he was the first Native America. 401 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 3: He's the first Alaskan Native to become an attorney. He 402 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 3: was the first Alaska Native to become a territorial legislator. 403 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 3: As an attorney, he gained Alaska Natives the right to vote. 404 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 3: And he also desegregated schools in Alaska in the nineteen twenties, 405 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 3: and then he initiated land claims efforts. And I said, 406 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 3: he did all of that stuff and nobody can usually 407 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 3: tell me who he is. And I said, could you 408 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 3: imagine going into a school in like Arkansas and putting 409 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,239 Speaker 3: up a picture of Martin Luther King and if one 410 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 3: hundred people were there, nobody could tell you who it was. 411 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 3: And I said, that's what dehumanization is. We don't get 412 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 3: to be names and people and faces. We just get 413 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 3: to be this conglomerate of a thing. And so I 414 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 3: think if you start challenging yourself when you say western 415 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 3: just like colonial, and then you might sort of say, well, 416 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 3: that makes me uncomfortable, But then you might sort of 417 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 3: push your brain towards something that has diversity so that 418 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 3: you could say, oh, yeah, there's actually like a huge 419 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 3: plurality of things, and it doesn't have to fit into 420 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 3: these two boxes. 421 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 2: Right, Like is Western just being code for the established 422 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 2: colonial powers of Western Europe? And it's like, well, let's 423 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 2: let's tighten that up so we don't put that much information. 424 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 2: And yet to your point about Martin Luther King, I 425 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 2: mean like I feel like that is the slow pace 426 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 2: that like American society is kind of moving towards that 427 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 2: I'd imagine there are people like I would love in 428 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 2: fifty years to go into a room with one hundred 429 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 2: people and I put this picture up and they don't 430 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 2: know who that is, and yeah, yeah, that sort of 431 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 2: really resonates with how quickly your history can just be 432 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,959 Speaker 2: disappeared like that in an instant, despite like the massive 433 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 2: contributions of the people that people have made. 434 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, what is what's something you think is underrated? 435 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 3: So by underrated, there's a friend of mine named pat 436 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 3: Race who floated this idea here in Juno and so 437 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 3: it tax onto this idea of land back and language 438 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 3: back initiatives, which I think are wonderful, Like if if 439 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 3: city governments especially could just say, you know what, we've 440 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 3: got some land here, let's give a certain percentage of 441 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 3: our land base to the Native American tribe that's here. 442 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 3: Let's just give it back to the Native peoples because 443 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 3: there's no legal or rational claim to why people took 444 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,959 Speaker 3: land from Native Americans, you know. And so what are 445 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 3: the difficulties with federal Indian law is Federal Indian law 446 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 3: is basically born on this concept that they are not 447 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 3: human beings, so they cannot own the land. So it's 448 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 3: it's ours, you know. And plus you add concepts to 449 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 3: that like manifest destiny, which is basically saying God sent 450 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 3: us here to save these people, and by saving them, 451 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 3: we're taking all of their stuff. That's that's what I 452 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 3: mean by saving that, right, right. And so it's like 453 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 3: if I came into your kitchen, it was just like 454 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 3: loading up all your food into a bag and you're. 455 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 2: Like what you hate? 456 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 3: What are you doing? Like, well, I'm saving you. I 457 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 3: am really, I'm helping you out here. 458 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 2: You don't know how to use this like I do, 459 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 2: so I'm saving you. 460 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, you weren't even using this, so you weren't making 461 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 3: use of it the way I envision how it should 462 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 3: be used. 463 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 2: Right. 464 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 3: So one of the ways that this can can work 465 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 3: is I don't think land back and language back should 466 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 3: be just the burden of Indigenous peoples. And so this 467 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,199 Speaker 3: is going to be the really hard part. Is so 468 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 3: let's say you have a property tax or you have 469 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 3: a sales tax in your community, so you either raise 470 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 3: it a bit or you just take a chunk of 471 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 3: that and say this goes back towards land back and 472 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 3: language back initiatives, which means when it reaches a certain point, 473 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 3: we'll work with the local tribal leaders of the Native 474 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 3: American tribe there and we will let them select a 475 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 3: parcel of life and to purchase back, and we'll pay 476 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 3: for it, and we'll say there you go. That's and 477 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 3: we start accumulating a land base with Native American peoples. 478 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 3: Because if we look at global warming, if we look 479 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 3: at the climate crisis, if we look at pollution, if 480 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 3: we look at all these other things, that there's two 481 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 3: things that are really on a parallel. This is really 482 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 3: kind of scary stuff at this particular time. The number 483 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 3: of species that are going extinct or at such a 484 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 3: high rate that we'll never know how many species that 485 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 3: there are right now, but there'll always be less than 486 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 3: there are right now. The same thing can be said 487 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 3: with languages. We'll never there's about seven thousand languages, but 488 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 3: will never actually know how many because they're going extinct 489 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 3: at a rate faster than we could keep track of them. 490 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 3: And so if we look at land back and language back, 491 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 3: so the land back portions like take a chunk of 492 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 3: money by land, give it to Native American peoples if 493 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 3: you have land. For example, the town that I was 494 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: born in, Skagway, Alaska, which we call Shuckwey, there's a 495 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 3: chunk of land that the Catholic Church owned, and the 496 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 3: Catholic Church had a Native American boarding school there. And 497 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 3: a boarding school was a place where Native American children 498 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 3: were sent, usually against their parents will, and they were 499 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 3: forced to speak English, and they were beaten for speaking 500 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 3: their own language, and they were usually punished, and their 501 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 3: labor camps they weren't really given So in some places 502 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 3: they were given a decent education, but a lot of 503 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 3: places it was all about assimilation and killing off their 504 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 3: own culture and language. So if the Catholic Church had 505 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 3: a bit of a consciousness that was thinking about doing 506 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 3: the greater good and thinking about what did we do 507 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 3: in our history that has caused harm, they would have 508 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 3: contacted the tribe and say we'd like to give you 509 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 3: this land because it was a boarding school and maybe 510 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 3: you could build a school on it that will help 511 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 3: your language, right, But instead they struck a deal with 512 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,679 Speaker 3: the city to say we'll sell it to the city 513 00:25:58,119 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 3: and the city will do it on the condition that 514 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 3: the tribe can never put in a claim that they 515 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 3: should have that land, right, And so they instead conspired 516 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 3: to shut the tribe out. And so I think what 517 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 3: cities should be doing is trying to find land that 518 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 3: they could give to Native American tribes. Then I think 519 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 3: they should be taxing the people who live there to 520 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 3: help them buy land back and defund language revitalization programs, 521 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 3: because everywhere you go in North America there's probably an 522 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 3: endangered Native American language, and it's endangered because of colonization. 523 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 3: So now everyone who benefits from that should be able 524 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 3: to contribute something to the restoration of these languages and 525 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 3: the land of peoples. 526 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 2: It's wild, like you know, right now, I feel like 527 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 2: there's so many there are these like parallel movements with 528 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 2: like land back and language back and also talking about reparations. 529 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 2: And I'd imagine the pushback is probably similar to like 530 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,680 Speaker 2: what you hear about reparations, just like why had nothing 531 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 2: to do with that? So why do I need to 532 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 2: And I mean, I get that the situation of what 533 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: racism and chattel slavery is under black people has effects, 534 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 2: but that had nothing to do with me. And I 535 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 2: think that's just too much money for one person to 536 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 2: get it. That's not fair, is that. I'd imagine those 537 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 2: the same criticisms are levied at any you know, any 538 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: kind of movement or you know, push to try and 539 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 2: give any kind of land back or is it or 540 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 2: are people just straight up just kind of being like wait, 541 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 2: what for who? 542 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 3: It kind of varies like it depends like that for 543 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 3: some places you go, like you might have a certain 544 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 3: number of the population that's kind of they kind of 545 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,360 Speaker 3: get it right. But one of the things I think 546 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 3: that you were talking about a little earlier is how 547 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 3: there is a push to just never look at this 548 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 3: history right, so it's like basically out locked from textbooks. 549 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 3: Like yeah, I could see a future probably in Florida 550 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 3: where you say, you cannot say people took land from 551 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 3: Native Americans, like that's illegal to put into a textbook, 552 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 3: Like that's probably something that's coming and you cannot say slavery, 553 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 3: and actually it shouldn't. 554 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 2: Be kept reading this article, yeah, and. 555 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 3: I was reading this article says well, you shouldn't say slavery, 556 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 3: you should just say human trafficking, right, because even the 557 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 3: term slavery has been just sort of numbed. It's just 558 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 3: sort of number like, oh, yeah, there was there was slavery, 559 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 3: you know. And so but one of the things, I 560 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 3: think there's a push from people who don't want to 561 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 3: examine these histories to call it like labor, right, they 562 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 3: were laborers, and so yeah, as we look at reparations 563 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 3: and we look at land back and we look at 564 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 3: language back, it's it's difficult to push through people who 565 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 3: who just want everything to maintain the way it is, 566 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 3: because they say, I have the privilege, I have the power. 567 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 3: I mean I consciously think of that, but why would 568 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 3: I want to share? Because sharing, I think is definitely 569 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 3: not an American value in terms of like if you 570 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 3: go back to the forefathers or whatever that people like 571 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 3: to talk about. I don't think that compassion and sharing 572 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 3: and helping each other are true value. I think the 573 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 3: values are really like taking and acquiring and securing your 574 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 3: own and so one of the difficulties is if we 575 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 3: don't sort of talk about that, then we have a 576 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 3: difficult time talking about what the alternative could be, which 577 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 3: is really to share. And it's sort of like going 578 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 3: against a billionaire mentality. It's like, hey, you know, you've 579 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 3: got like so much, maybe maybe you should just stop 580 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 3: and then let other people get some. But it's it's 581 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 3: too hungry. 582 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 2: But it's precisely that thinking that is also the cause 583 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 2: of so much discomfort that people aren't realizing either, is 584 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 2: this disconnected is because we live in like the way 585 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 2: that our values are reflected back to us is you 586 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 2: get yours, and you get yours and fuck everybody else 587 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 2: because you've got to get yours. And part of that 588 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 2: is we feel so disconnected. We feel disconnected from we do, 589 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 2: We feel disconnected from the places we live. Rather than 590 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 2: realizing like the best times that if you feel like 591 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 2: alive is truly like when you feel like you are 592 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 2: connected to the people around you, to the community, you're into, 593 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 2: the land you live on, all of the like all 594 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 2: of those things come together. But yeah, we just like 595 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 2: live and have such an antithetical mentality to that and 596 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 2: still are just like, oh god, I hate this damn matrix. 597 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and it's the matrix, right, and it stuck. 598 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 3: There's nothing we could do shut if we could have 599 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 3: done something different. And I think another thing that's like 600 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 3: a subsurface thing is like when we talk about declonization, 601 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 3: we talk about reparations, and we talk about trying to 602 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 3: make things a little bit closer to right. I think 603 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 3: some people think, oh, now it's my turn for slavery. 604 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 3: Oh now you're going to take my land, right, And 605 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 3: now you've just been waiting to do this thing to 606 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 3: me that I know in my brain my ancestors did 607 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 3: to your ancestors. But it's really that's not the conversation. 608 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 3: Like when we say decolonization, we're not talking about buying 609 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 3: tickets for all the white people to leave. You know, 610 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 3: we're talking about, right, We're talking about decentering whiteness to say, like, 611 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 3: you know, there could be other things in the. 612 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 2: Middle, right, And part of that and part of like 613 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 2: healing not just for the people that have been on 614 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 2: the shitty end of those transgressions, but for the transgressors, 615 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 2: is to connect to that humanity and offer a hand 616 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 2: and say, you know what, my batteries charged at one 617 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 2: hundred percent y'all's is at like two percent. Let me 618 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 2: give y'all forty percent, and then we can all kind 619 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 2: of get to some level where we all feel that 620 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 2: we're I don't know, at least helping each other. But yeah, 621 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 2: I totally feel that. 622 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:36,959 Speaker 1: All right, should we take a break and come back 623 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 1: and talk about how we're all living in the matrix? 624 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: Hell yeah, bro, hell yeah brother, all right, we'll be right. 625 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 4: Back, and we're back. 626 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 2: We're back. 627 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: You know, every once in a while, we like to 628 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: look over at truth social just to see read the 629 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: tea leaves. You don't even have to read the words. 630 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: You just have to like kind of look at the 631 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: sheer like tonnage of text that yeah, Trump is producing 632 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: on truth and you like get the sense that, okay, 633 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: the Richter scale in his brain indicates that an earthquake 634 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: is coming and that an indictment might be on its way. 635 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: So so we're picking up those signals. Yeah, some media 636 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: I think, Yeah. 637 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 2: It's you gotta put your ear down. You got to 638 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 2: see what's going on. We hear rumbling, you know, is 639 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 2: it gonna be Georgia where the Fulton County da fani 640 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 2: willis that grand jury investigation seems to be at the 641 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: here's your indictment phase, so could be there. And it's 642 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 2: been clear for the last couple of weeks that Trump 643 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 2: has been freaking out over that specific investigation, considering that 644 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 2: he went all the way to the Georgia Supreme Court 645 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 2: to essentially like attempt to have Willis disqualified and then 646 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 2: tried to prevent any of the evidence that was found 647 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 2: in the grand jury report like being presented to a jury, 648 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 2: like don't do it, don't let her do it, and 649 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 2: nothing that she learned can't be presented to anyone during 650 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 2: a trial. They luckily, the Supreme Court unanimously told him 651 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 2: to eat fuck. So we have that. So now we are, 652 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 2: you know, we're in the like we were seeing some 653 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 2: late night truth social screams, rather this time this kind 654 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 2: of came in the morning. But he's saying I'm getting 655 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 2: indicted and it's not quite Georgia time. It sounds like 656 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 2: Jack Smith has got another one for Trump, and this 657 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 2: time for trying to subvert the twenty twenty election as 658 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 2: we all saw.

Again 825 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:53,800 Speaker 2: to slitched out. 826 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 1: Like this on the air, then Justin just has to 827 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 1: edit around it where I just freeze for like thirty 828 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: five to forty five minute. 829 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:02,839 Speaker 3: I've been on plenty of Zoom calls and I see 830 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 3: people freeze all the time. So you know, what do 831 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 3: you think is this? I think it's been confirmed. So 832 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 3: I just want to write to the great coders who 833 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 3: are out there programming the Matrix if you could just 834 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 3: put more indigenous content in there, like just throw some 835 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 3: of my language out there, just make it, you know, 836 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 3: just alter this reality, because this reality is you know, 837 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 3: I'm going to give it two thumbs down and just say, 838 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 3: you know, we gotta do a little bit better on 839 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 3: what we're experiencing in terms of indigenous peoples and colonization, 840 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:39,839 Speaker 3: Like so, can you just run the decolonization program, run, 841 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 3: just take a winter key on that one, and then 842 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 3: let's just try and see and let people freeze, let 843 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 3: them freeze, let them, let them glitch out. As long 844 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 3: as we're decolonizing, that's all I really care about. So 845 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 3: in that case, you know, send send. I don't know 846 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 3: what the Indigenous version of the Keanu Reeves character was. 847 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 2: It neo neo could be. 848 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 3: The people asked me sometimes how to translate this stuff, 849 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 3: like how would you say the one? It's like, you 850 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 3: know that like I'm not going to work in our language, 851 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 3: you know, like you could just say yeah, weight take 852 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 3: like the one. It doesn't work. It works good in English, right, 853 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 3: So we had a lot of that, like single word 854 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 3: concepts people say, like can you translate freedom? You know, 855 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 3: and like, well, you know, like our concept of freedom 856 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 3: is litally different, you know, because and so you got 857 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 3: to have a lot of concepts of freedom, I think 858 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 3: in America, because you've had a lot of slavery and 859 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 3: you've had a lot of stealing of other people's stuff, 860 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 3: and so I think freedom becomes this huge thing to 861 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 3: live by. So to the coders, more indigenous stuff, just just. 862 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:51,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, we have studio notes. Yeah exactly. Yeah. 863 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 1: So, I mean it could be anything. It could be, 864 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 1: you know, a neurological condition this person suffers from. Because 865 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: the person says like they were frozen like that for 866 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,839 Speaker 1: a minute, that the walker could be doing a performance 867 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 1: art thing, or most likely it's an intentional trick, or 868 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,359 Speaker 1: even more likely, it is proof that we live in 869 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: the matrix and it's a glitch and everything is frozen. 870 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: There's no way to know. But this is an entire 871 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: genre of TikTok video that I'm now fascinated with. There's 872 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:29,600 Speaker 1: another one that went super viral where a plane appears 873 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:33,399 Speaker 1: to just be like frozen in mid air and the 874 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,760 Speaker 1: text on the video said, another plane flew past minutes before. 875 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:38,759 Speaker 1: So I know for a fact it didn't move. 876 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,880 Speaker 2: And that's proof because the person's text in the video 877 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 2: exactly what the fuck? Okay, sure, because you said, so 878 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 2: it's been like this for seven thousand years. Has it moved? 879 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 2: Someone care to explain? Still there? 880 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: And you can take that to the bank. Also, as 881 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: we've already discussed, on this episode, Like sometimes a plane 882 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 1: does just kind of hang out up there because the 883 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: wind at that height is incredibly fast, and you know, 884 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 1: you're like, the plane is going the equivalent of like 885 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 1: three hundred miles per hour because the wind is like 886 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 1: going against it at like two hundred and fifty miles 887 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 1: per hour or whatever. 888 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:24,879 Speaker 2: Nah, jackets floating, come on, then try to throw water 889 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:26,319 Speaker 2: on this. Yeah. 890 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 1: So the simulation theory, which yeah, you know, this has 891 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 1: been a thing in science fiction forever, but the one 892 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 1: that has gotten popular recently where it's like, and I 893 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,840 Speaker 1: think I heard this before two thousands, because like the 894 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:47,080 Speaker 1: people credit it to the Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom in 895 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 1: the early two thousands, but I think it's been around 896 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 1: for way before that. I mean, the matrix came out 897 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 1: in the nineties, didn't. 898 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,239 Speaker 2: It isn't he also effect of altruism Bostrum. 899 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so Bostrom is also a right idea. 900 00:45:58,800 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 2: This guy's an idea. 901 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:04,360 Speaker 1: And he's also like on Wax being just a straight 902 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 1: up racist. 903 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,240 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, totally. 904 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 1: Openly like saying the N word in an email race. 905 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 2: It was a list Serve Jack from the list Sir 906 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 2: that I think was his defense. He's like, it was 907 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 2: not me, it was the list serve. 908 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 1: So it's annoying that you know, an idea that it 909 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 1: is fun to play with, the idea of that you're 910 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: living in a simulation is goes back to this racist 911 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 1: piece of shit. But it's it's also like, definitely, you know, 912 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:41,279 Speaker 1: a symptom of something like that, this is the reality 913 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: that we choose to kind of or the model of 914 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:47,960 Speaker 1: reality that I think a lot of people are Like 915 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 1: that actually makes sense to me. It makes sense to 916 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 1: me if I just like started noticing like birds glitching 917 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 1: out in mid air. 918 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 2: Because. 919 00:46:56,680 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I must live in a computer simulation there and 920 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 1: therefore because I just I think people feel isolated, yeah, 921 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 1: from their reality, from the system that. 922 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 2: Hey, teenage assholes, teenage assholes on TikTok. It's not a 923 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 2: fucking simulation. You're just experiencing the fucking ills of capitalism 924 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 2: destroying everything around you. Okay, Like you think of like 925 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 2: the nature of the fucking quote what work is right, 926 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,359 Speaker 2: Most people do not have the benefit of doing work 927 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,240 Speaker 2: that is connected to something they fucking give a fuck about, 928 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,840 Speaker 2: or even making something that they feel is meaningful that 929 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,879 Speaker 2: or does good in the world, like I mean, few 930 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 2: people have that benefit as they toil or work or 931 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,839 Speaker 2: whatever you want to fucking call it, and because of that, 932 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 2: we feel isolated as shit. We feel like cogs in 933 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,839 Speaker 2: a machine or in the case of the matrix, those 934 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 2: little fucking battery cells that everybody's in individualized where your 935 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,839 Speaker 2: whole purpose as life forms is to generate energy or 936 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 2: capital for larger system. So I totally get why you 937 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:05,240 Speaker 2: saw the matrix once and now you're like, this explains 938 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 2: what I'm living now, and it must be the matrix, 939 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,399 Speaker 2: rather than trying to actually begin to break out of 940 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 2: this fucking frigid paradigm of like what we consider work 941 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 2: or freedom or what we like how we even live, 942 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,360 Speaker 2: because we can't live in a normal way, Like we 943 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 2: can't just enjoy the world around us. We don't have 944 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 2: leisure because everything is fucking private property, or you need 945 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 2: money just to fucking afford to live or have medical 946 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 2: care or breathe air basically, so it's dystopian, And of 947 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 2: course people want to find a way to break out 948 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:40,440 Speaker 2: of the simulation. But the answer seems pretty simple here, like, 949 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 2: especially when you hear people investing money into being like, 950 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 2: figure out how we break out of this simulation. I'm 951 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 2: a billionaire. What what? Yeah? No, no, come on, fam, 952 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 2: that ain't it. 953 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:53,440 Speaker 5: Oh? 954 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 1: There are evidence that people are pointing to a bird 955 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:59,319 Speaker 1: crossing the skyline but its wings are turned down. There's 956 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 1: one where they're like, look at these sheep. They've been 957 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:06,879 Speaker 1: standing completely still for like an hour. It's like as 958 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:10,319 Speaker 1: opposed to what but they like playing music over it? 959 00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:10,879 Speaker 2: Right? 960 00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 1: I kept playing cards? 961 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,240 Speaker 2: Aren't they like? Aren't they playing Nintendo Switch? 962 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 4: That? 963 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 2: That ship looks so boring? Fam, you know what's wild? 964 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,440 Speaker 2: I'm I fell victim to that because I asked on 965 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 2: Twitter because I there is like a person with like 966 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,880 Speaker 2: a horse nearby, and I see like this horse just 967 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 2: like chilling, you know, like all day by by themselves, 968 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 2: and I was like, damn, that shit kind of fucked up, 969 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,360 Speaker 2: And I asked on Twitter. I'm like, yo, do horses 970 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 2: get bored? Please let me know, because I don't know 971 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 2: this fucking people like, No, they're they're fine, They're good here. Yeah, 972 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 2: but again that does play on my version of like 973 00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:45,200 Speaker 2: they're as smart as me, and you would be so 974 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,319 Speaker 2: bored and you probably want to know what's happening on 975 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 2: TV and I should be telling you. Oh, it sucks 976 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 2: to be a horse. 977 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:51,399 Speaker 4: Yeah. 978 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 1: There's also a trend on glitch talk with people being 979 00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 1: like someone's stealing my utensils. I'm down to one fork. 980 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,200 Speaker 1: I just found a haven the cup even though I 981 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:02,600 Speaker 1: only bought a set of six. 982 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 3: Well, you know, they never come for the butter knives. 983 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 3: I'll just say that, like you butter knives actually multiply. 984 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 1: Thirty. 985 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 3: I got thirty, I got four forks, six spoons. 986 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 2: Do you own currently own a butter knife? Just a 987 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 2: quick check of the room, does it people still own 988 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,480 Speaker 2: like that? Like very specific, like flat, like it almost 989 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,240 Speaker 2: looks like a little butter knife. 990 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,600 Speaker 1: I just can't water the knife, like the one that 991 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:31,080 Speaker 1: cut that I put out at dinner when we're setting 992 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 1: the table, a butter knife. 993 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 3: Like when you get a silver ware set, it comes 994 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,440 Speaker 3: with like a little fork, big fork, the knife, big spoon, 995 00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 3: and then the knife the butter knife thing. Yeah, wait, 996 00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 3: what's the butter knife? 997 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:43,920 Speaker 2: What do you call the. 998 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 1: Knife that has the little it's like smooth at the 999 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: top and. 1000 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:51,640 Speaker 2: Hold on, what's a knife? 1001 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 1: What? 1002 00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,399 Speaker 2: Hold on? A butter knife? What the fuck? Oh wait, 1003 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 2: you just meaning the one that has like like a round, 1004 00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 2: more rounded edge at the end, it's. 1005 00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's got like little ridges. You can't really. 1006 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,400 Speaker 2: But like I think about like the first set that 1007 00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:13,320 Speaker 2: most young people have, which is like that Ikea. Fucking 1008 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,759 Speaker 2: you buy that whole silver war set of Ikea that 1009 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 2: doesn't have a rounded edge. 1010 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:19,440 Speaker 3: Is it sharp? Is it cut? 1011 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:21,799 Speaker 2: I mean you can't stab with it, but like you 1012 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:24,359 Speaker 2: can cut chicken and like with it. I wouldn't you know, 1013 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,240 Speaker 2: And like maybe tender other tender meats. 1014 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:31,680 Speaker 3: Yeah they got yeah, they got some. That's some serious silverware, 1015 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 3: I think, because like what I get, like you get 1016 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,840 Speaker 3: like a butter knife. It can't cut butter, right, maybe 1017 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 3: you could cut some bread. You're gonna saw that bread up, 1018 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,239 Speaker 3: You're gonna kay. 1019 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 2: So that's what I'm thinking. Like this one here, like 1020 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:46,960 Speaker 2: the most they call it, I guess a spreader. That 1021 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 2: makes sense because it got that big flat yeah, big 1022 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 2: tip on. 1023 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:53,400 Speaker 3: The end, oh for like your fish spread. But you 1024 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 3: were calling this a butter knife, that's that's a butter knife. 1025 00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 1: That is what Google is calling a Oh it's calling 1026 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:00,440 Speaker 1: it a inner. 1027 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,600 Speaker 3: Knife, an inner knife, Get out of town. 1028 00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: You call it a dinner knife, Miles, I don't even 1029 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:07,840 Speaker 1: know in my mind a butter knife Okay, here's the 1030 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:09,600 Speaker 1: other thing. What is the one that I call a 1031 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 1: butter knife to you in your head? What is the word? 1032 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:14,320 Speaker 2: What is this? That's just like a shitty dinner knife 1033 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,799 Speaker 2: sty dinner knife? Yeah, because like it ain't steak, you 1034 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:23,400 Speaker 2: know what I mean? Like, yeah, that's always had just 1035 00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 2: it was meant to spread and like that's just like 1036 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,440 Speaker 2: if you need to cut some shit. Oh and the 1037 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,719 Speaker 2: other reason I'll tell you is in Japan, like when 1038 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,440 Speaker 2: you buy like a like a container of like soft butter, 1039 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 2: it's like built for you to put a little butter 1040 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 2: knife in. So like a lot of Japanese homes have 1041 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,839 Speaker 2: like a butter specific butter spreader. Mm hmm. But again 1042 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:46,240 Speaker 2: that's I'm like, are we here to even this whole 1043 00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 2: fucking matrix thing? But came in It was a definition 1044 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 2: of a spreader versus a knife. 1045 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 3: Okay between the three of us, yeah, we may have 1046 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:55,160 Speaker 3: figured this out. 1047 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:58,760 Speaker 1: Yeah okay, well I would even throw the different colored 1048 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 1: dresses and the green needle space whatever into the thing 1049 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:09,880 Speaker 1: where it feels like that was when those two things happened, 1050 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 1: everyone was like we live in the matrix, like this 1051 00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,799 Speaker 1: is glitching out. How do you see a black and 1052 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 1: blue dress, I see yellow and white. So I don't know, 1053 00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:23,799 Speaker 1: I find this stuff interesting. I mean, yeah, I don't 1054 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 1: think it means we live in a simulation. 1055 00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:28,719 Speaker 2: No, I think it's just it's only a sign that 1056 00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 2: people are are, you know, becoming more aware of the 1057 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,799 Speaker 2: disconnect that they feel, and they're just trying to make 1058 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 2: sense of it, and they lack the vocabulary or tools 1059 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 2: to like articulate it in a way that makes sense. 1060 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:42,760 Speaker 2: And all we have are fucking movies and Elon Musk 1061 00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:45,880 Speaker 2: tweets for a certain generation. So when he starts, when 1062 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,359 Speaker 2: everybody's aboutetting red pilled and shit, they're like, yeah, dude, 1063 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 2: that shit's real good. I don't know, Like, who know 1064 00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 2: what do you think of? Like, I feel like this 1065 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 2: is all part of, like in the last times you've 1066 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:57,839 Speaker 2: come on to to talk about how disconnected we are, 1067 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 2: especially from like where we live and our surroundings, and 1068 00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:02,799 Speaker 2: like how that's part of like being able to like 1069 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 2: in a way make a step towards like decolonizing the 1070 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 2: way we live. Because I feel like this is this 1071 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,919 Speaker 2: is like this is a perfect example of how we've 1072 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 2: completely colonized our own minds into thinking this is the 1073 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,400 Speaker 2: one way that society and the economy can function. 1074 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,359 Speaker 1: That is a great question, Miles. And let's hold that 1075 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 1: thought and we'll take a quick break and we'll carry 1076 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:36,360 Speaker 1: it back and we're back, and so do I repeat 1077 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:36,960 Speaker 1: that question? 1078 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:40,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? But like I was saying, no, like, and I 1079 00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 2: think if you didn't just skip ahead, the point being 1080 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,799 Speaker 2: is I think there's there's a lot of like you've 1081 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:47,799 Speaker 2: you've spent a lot of facts every time you've come on, 1082 00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:50,520 Speaker 2: but that have really made me think about how much 1083 00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 2: the way that we this like our societies were built 1084 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 2: in this country was built, how much it affects us now, 1085 00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 2: how much it poisons us now to the point that 1086 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 2: we have no connection to each other, community, to land, 1087 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,400 Speaker 2: and things like that. I'm do you see this as 1088 00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:09,799 Speaker 2: part and parcel of that disconnect or is there is 1089 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 2: there another way you're looking at it? Well? 1090 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,359 Speaker 3: So, I guess I think of a couple of things. 1091 00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,799 Speaker 3: One is, when I was going to school in Hawaii, 1092 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 3: I was living with one of my teachers named Larry Kimura, 1093 00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:23,760 Speaker 3: who we call him the godfather of the Hawaiian language movement. 1094 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,719 Speaker 3: He's just he's an amazing person, and at one point 1095 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,800 Speaker 3: he was just he kind of started going off about 1096 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,719 Speaker 3: these people wearing these shirts that say Aloha Aina, which 1097 00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:34,920 Speaker 3: is like love the land. And he says, you love 1098 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,239 Speaker 3: the land, show me your fingers you got you got 1099 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,799 Speaker 3: dirt underneath your fingernails. Have you been out working in 1100 00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:42,399 Speaker 3: the land. You've been digging, You've been planting stuff, You've 1101 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:44,839 Speaker 3: been doing stuff. And so for me, I think, if 1102 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 3: if the world starts glitching out, go out on the land, right, 1103 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:50,839 Speaker 3: just go go see what's out there, and and go 1104 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:54,560 Speaker 3: get your hands dirty. And then I also sometimes I 1105 00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 3: have theories that maybe people don't want to hear. So 1106 00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 3: I was in a class on American literature and the 1107 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:03,080 Speaker 3: theme of the class was paranoia and that this sort 1108 00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:06,920 Speaker 3: of culminating moment in the class. This was for an 1109 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:10,799 Speaker 3: MFA and creative writing, and the teachers who was really 1110 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 3: he was a great guy, and he said, well, why 1111 00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 3: do you guys think there's so much paranoia in American literature? 1112 00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 3: And this person had an answer, and that person had 1113 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 3: an answer, and that person had an answer, and I 1114 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 3: raised my hand I said, well, I think it's because 1115 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:26,480 Speaker 3: America stole everything from Native American people's and they're just 1116 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:27,840 Speaker 3: kind of waiting for their comeup. 1117 00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:28,040 Speaker 1: Ins. 1118 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:32,280 Speaker 3: And I also think that it's you can really geek 1119 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 3: out on sci fi theories and stuff, so you don't 1120 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:39,440 Speaker 3: have to assume that your ancestors did something really horrible. 1121 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 3: And so I think if people say, no, this is 1122 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 3: all part of this larger program that we have no 1123 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:49,840 Speaker 3: control of, I think it's another system to avoid doing 1124 00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:51,839 Speaker 3: the work that it's going to take to sort of 1125 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:56,160 Speaker 3: start moving towards a sense of equity which is totally attainable, 1126 00:56:56,400 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 3: which is totally possible. But I think colonizations sets up 1127 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:04,280 Speaker 3: all of these mechanisms like either like it's it's already 1128 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 3: in place, it's too late to do anything, it's this 1129 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 3: thing or that thing, or the limitlessness of resource extraction 1130 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 3: and the absolute limit of budgets and time and energy, right, 1131 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:20,360 Speaker 3: and so it just sort of gets you trapped into 1132 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 3: these systems. So for me, I'm always, you know, I'm 1133 00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 3: always paranoid that something is racism, and I'm always paranoid 1134 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:31,560 Speaker 3: that something is colonization. And I'm usually right, but I'll 1135 00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 3: also say, you know, so that's my matrix that I'm 1136 00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:36,440 Speaker 3: stuck in, you know. So sometimes I'll be dealing with 1137 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 3: something I was like, is this a colonization thing, or 1138 00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:41,520 Speaker 3: is this a race? Like am I getting Am I 1139 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 3: getting treated different because of you know, my name or 1140 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 3: because of who I am or how I look? Are 1141 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:49,160 Speaker 3: my kids being treated different? And so I'm always sort 1142 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 3: of I'm paranoid myself, right, But I'm also I have it, 1143 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 3: you know, I don't have TikTok channel for it, but 1144 00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 3: I've been right quite a few times with this kind 1145 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 3: of stuff. So for me, I think it's fascinating and 1146 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 3: it's neat to look at, and like I have friends 1147 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 3: who've seen UFOs, and I have friends who've seen we 1148 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 3: have our own monsters here that live in the woods. 1149 00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 3: We went camping last weekend and it's fun. It's it's 1150 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 3: a blast. Like we're in Alaska. You can just walk 1151 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,760 Speaker 3: out your door and you're in the wilderness. But that means, 1152 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 3: you know, the dog starts barking. You're cooking some delicious 1153 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 3: dinner out in the middle of nowhere in the dark. 1154 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 3: Well it's not in the Milan Nore but far from 1155 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:32,000 Speaker 3: you know, a hospital. Yeah, and the dog's barking and 1156 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 3: looking down the trail and you're like, grab all the food, 1157 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 3: get in the cabin, you know, because there's probably, you know, 1158 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:41,800 Speaker 3: like we respect the grizzly bear so much that we 1159 00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:44,200 Speaker 3: got two names. Like so hoots is what we would 1160 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 3: call it, so it means brown bear, and we say 1161 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 3: it's eke for black bear. But the brown bear is 1162 00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 3: the one that's it owns the forest and we know that. 1163 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 3: But when we're out in the forest, we say yet 1164 00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:58,439 Speaker 3: see neat, which means a living thing. So we don't 1165 00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 3: even say its name when we're out there, because we're like, 1166 00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:04,680 Speaker 3: you say it's name, it's going to be like you talk, yeah, 1167 00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 3: call me. Wait, you're in my house. And so we 1168 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:10,640 Speaker 3: talk to them before we go into the woods, and 1169 00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 3: we sort of live this life that's pretty connected to 1170 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,560 Speaker 3: the natural world. So I think the other thing too, 1171 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:22,240 Speaker 3: is there's a fascination with an artificial world because there's 1172 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 3: a prescribed disconnect with the natural world in order to 1173 00:59:25,720 --> 00:59:29,680 Speaker 3: maintain a sense of colonization and economics the way that 1174 00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:33,040 Speaker 3: it's required today, like you have to be separate from 1175 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:36,040 Speaker 3: it to say, yeah, cut all the trees down, yeah, 1176 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 3: like kill off all those buffalo you know, like this 1177 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 3: these mountain lions scare me, so just murder them, right, 1178 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 3: and so, but in order to do that, you have 1179 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 3: to remove yourself, which you know, Christianity kind of did 1180 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:53,200 Speaker 3: that already. It's like man has domain of everything, including women, right, 1181 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:56,080 Speaker 3: and it just creates tons and tons of problems because 1182 00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 3: I think human beings and especially we just narrow it 1183 00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 3: down to one gender, don't have enough skills and ability 1184 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:07,320 Speaker 3: to like manage the universe. It's sort of like, actually, 1185 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 3: you should just be in the universe and figure out 1186 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:12,280 Speaker 3: how you're part of that, because you're not. You're in 1187 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,400 Speaker 3: the food chain, you're you're in You're in all these circles, 1188 01:00:15,480 --> 01:00:17,520 Speaker 3: you're in all these cycles, and what you do affect 1189 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,880 Speaker 3: all of these things. And so I like the conversations. 1190 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:22,479 Speaker 3: I think it's fun. I think it's fun to watch 1191 01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,440 Speaker 3: this stuff. You're like, oh, yeah, that is weird and 1192 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 3: that's pretty cool. But you can also zoom in on 1193 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:29,120 Speaker 3: your iPhone. It starts to get pretty grainy, and then 1194 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 3: it's probably pretty easy when you got. 1195 01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:34,160 Speaker 1: To share his camraigns in my house, what the fun 1196 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 1: I think? I mean, I think that kind of ties 1197 01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:39,280 Speaker 1: nicely into just you know, if you have any additional 1198 01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:43,160 Speaker 1: thoughts on Avatar, but like the reality of you know, 1199 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,800 Speaker 1: what we're doing to the world and other humans and 1200 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:50,200 Speaker 1: the history of what you know, white people have done 1201 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 1: to the world and other human beings is maybe too 1202 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:59,840 Speaker 1: uncomfortable for some people to take in and they want 1203 01:00:59,840 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 1: to create an artificial reality. In the case of the Matrix, 1204 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:06,480 Speaker 1: it's like just coming coming up with a system of 1205 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 1: belief that like we are in an unofficial reality. But 1206 01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 1: in the case of Avatar, it's like creating an unofficial, 1207 01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 1: like an artificial reality that you can go live in 1208 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 1: for a couple hours that also like rewrites that history 1209 01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:24,160 Speaker 1: where you get to like be on the good guy side, 1210 01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:27,480 Speaker 1: on the on the side of the victimize the people 1211 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:32,680 Speaker 1: being victimized by colonialism. Like I do think Avatar is 1212 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 1: really interesting just as a phenomenon, because I don't, like, 1213 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 1: I can't think of another cultural, pop cultural thing that 1214 01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:44,760 Speaker 1: was that is as successful as that those movies when 1215 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 1: they're happening and then as completely embarrassing the second they 1216 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:52,720 Speaker 1: stop happening, Like like it happened once with the first 1217 01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 1: Avatar and everyone's like, man, that was weird, and like 1218 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 1: Avatar was like a punchline. But then they did again, 1219 01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:02,919 Speaker 1: like you brought you brought Avatar two out, and every 1220 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 1: everyone went to fucking see that one too, and like 1221 01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 1: they are the two of the three most top grossing 1222 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,960 Speaker 1: movies of all time, but like nobody would put a 1223 01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:18,680 Speaker 1: movie poster of that movie up except ironically, And so 1224 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 1: I don't know, I think there's like a weird disconnect. 1225 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:23,560 Speaker 1: And then we also have the thing where like people 1226 01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:26,600 Speaker 1: were experiencing depression after they came out of the movie 1227 01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:31,480 Speaker 1: because they couldn't just like experience that reality around the clock. 1228 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:36,880 Speaker 1: So it's definitely filling a need that people have, but 1229 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:41,600 Speaker 1: one that is disconnected from their mind in a way 1230 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:45,600 Speaker 1: that like makes it unique where they can't like kind 1231 01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 1: of incorporate it into their lives the way they can 1232 01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 1: a Star Wars or something like that, where they make 1233 01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 1: it part of their personality. Like it just feels like 1234 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:58,200 Speaker 1: Avatar is this thing that is an experience. The then 1235 01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:01,600 Speaker 1: you like try not to think about when when you're 1236 01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:05,200 Speaker 1: not at an Avatar movie or something. But yeah, I'm 1237 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:06,760 Speaker 1: curious to hear your thoughts on Avatar. 1238 01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 3: Well, you know, I think largely there's this fascination with 1239 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:15,440 Speaker 3: white savior films, you know, and so dances with wolves. 1240 01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:18,520 Speaker 3: What was the one dangerous something whether there's like a 1241 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:21,560 Speaker 3: white school teacher who goes into dangerous minds. Yeah, a 1242 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:24,320 Speaker 3: black neighborhood, and you know, and and like, there are 1243 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 3: certainly stories of people who come in and embrace community 1244 01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:31,840 Speaker 3: and become part of it and become something different and 1245 01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:37,240 Speaker 3: do fight racism and fight colonization, you know, but it's 1246 01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:41,080 Speaker 3: it's very rare, especially when they like they win or something. 1247 01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:43,360 Speaker 3: And so I started to think about this stuff quite 1248 01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:46,400 Speaker 3: a bit. And then there's a film called Real Engines 1249 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 3: which is spelled r e E l I n j 1250 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 3: u n s, which is a documentary on the history 1251 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 3: of Native Americans and film, and it kind of goes 1252 01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:58,920 Speaker 3: through a number of different sort of scenarios and at 1253 01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 3: one point it talks about all these different white actors 1254 01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:05,840 Speaker 3: who have played Native Americans, and so there's a growing 1255 01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 3: list of you know, well, you know, there's quite a 1256 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 3: few of them who have played Native Americans. And then 1257 01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:15,840 Speaker 3: you also just get really interesting things like there's a 1258 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 3: guy I think his name was Ironized Cody or Cody Ironized, 1259 01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:21,120 Speaker 3: I can never remember which way it goes, but he 1260 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 3: played so many Native Americans and films that he full 1261 01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:27,960 Speaker 3: on believed he was Native American when he died. And 1262 01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 3: to some extent, I think his children do as well, 1263 01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:36,160 Speaker 3: and so like he can assume this entire identity. And 1264 01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 3: so I think there's a fascination with that to think 1265 01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:44,400 Speaker 3: about what if there was something different. But then there's 1266 01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:47,840 Speaker 3: a disconnect as well, because you don't really see that 1267 01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:51,000 Speaker 3: embraced in people's reality, because if they come out of like, 1268 01:04:51,080 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 3: let's say they came out of Avatar and said, whoa like, 1269 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 3: I should learn an indigenous language, and I should go 1270 01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:00,000 Speaker 3: contribute to a land back initiative, and I should actually 1271 01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:05,400 Speaker 3: do something that's embracing decolonization. Because the film, you could argue, 1272 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 3: is about decolonization, right, it's a totally fictionalized decolonization, and 1273 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:14,600 Speaker 3: so you could like if it translated into real action, 1274 01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 3: that would be more interesting to me than just sort 1275 01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:21,720 Speaker 3: of saying, well, you know, it's a nice fantasy to say, oh, yeah, well, 1276 01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:25,280 Speaker 3: what if we had actually done something a lot more 1277 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:29,200 Speaker 3: humane instead of taking everything from everybody? Because if you 1278 01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 3: look at some things, like we talked a bit about 1279 01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:35,680 Speaker 3: the Supreme Court, who is all kinds of fucked up, 1280 01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 3: like just the types of things that they're doing, these 1281 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:44,840 Speaker 3: decisions are horrible and they're just destructive for movements towards equity, 1282 01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:47,480 Speaker 3: but the one thing they couldn't do is dismantle the 1283 01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:50,680 Speaker 3: Indian Child Welfare Act, you know. And so the reason 1284 01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:54,440 Speaker 3: why the Indian Child Welfare Act exists is because in 1285 01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:58,120 Speaker 3: the mid to late nineteen seventies, one out of every 1286 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:01,600 Speaker 3: four Native American children were removed from their homes and 1287 01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:05,560 Speaker 3: placed with white families. In addition, one out of every 1288 01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 3: four Native American women were sterilized without their full consents. 1289 01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:13,320 Speaker 3: Like this kind of stuff was still happening, and so 1290 01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 3: the removal of people and so like the other thing, 1291 01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:19,959 Speaker 3: I think there's a fascination with the idea that colonization 1292 01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 3: had an endpoint or it had like we're in this 1293 01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:27,120 Speaker 3: post colonial sort of world, which we're not, and we 1294 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:30,800 Speaker 3: could be, but it requires a consciousness that's going to 1295 01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,600 Speaker 3: move you beyond going to a movie for two or 1296 01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:36,760 Speaker 3: three hours and completely immersing yourself in this other idea 1297 01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:39,800 Speaker 3: and just saying, actually, we can have a reality that 1298 01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 3: is kind of close to the Avatar universe, which you know, 1299 01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:46,400 Speaker 3: I'm not opposed to that reality, but what I'm opposed 1300 01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:49,320 Speaker 3: to is the idea that it exists, or that going 1301 01:06:49,360 --> 01:06:51,560 Speaker 3: to the movie is somehow enough. 1302 01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:54,400 Speaker 2: Right, right, Yeah, Yeah, it's funny too, because it like 1303 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:56,360 Speaker 2: to your point, if you're not coming out of the 1304 01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 2: movie being like, wow, we got work to do, then really, 1305 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:01,640 Speaker 2: then I don't know how good it's doing because most 1306 01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:03,320 Speaker 2: people come out of that movie and be like, why 1307 01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:09,840 Speaker 2: is it Pandora Real? Why can't you go? So the 1308 01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:14,439 Speaker 2: message was maybe like secondary or tertiary to like the Wow, 1309 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:16,680 Speaker 2: isn't this shit fucking cool? Anyway?

One crazy thing 1341 01:08:55,720 --> 01:09:00,240 Speaker 1: happened with askdata dot co today, still in shock. I 1342 01:09:00,280 --> 01:09:02,519 Speaker 1: was troubleshooting with a customer on zoom and you'd just 1343 01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:05,120 Speaker 1: gotten his person and it's like keep reading meat day 1344 01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:07,559 Speaker 1: to get it done. And it's like a promoted post 1345 01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:13,400 Speaker 1: for fucking some bullshit. They're all over the place. Anyways, 1346 01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:14,640 Speaker 1: I'm glad I interrupted for that. 1347 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:15,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1348 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 3: The other thing I really want to promote is just 1349 01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:23,200 Speaker 3: indigenous language revitalization. So if you're not familiar with what 1350 01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:25,960 Speaker 3: the Hawaiian Language Movement day is, or a Jibwe or 1351 01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:28,880 Speaker 3: a Mohawk or the sale is of Spokane, go look 1352 01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:32,280 Speaker 3: at what they're doing. Like it's very possible. So on 1353 01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:35,160 Speaker 3: the Tongue Unbroken, we like to talk about how do 1354 01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:38,120 Speaker 3: you do it? How do you take these steps? If 1355 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:41,639 Speaker 3: you have a thousand speakers left, if you have ten 1356 01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:44,000 Speaker 3: speakers left, if you have no speakers left of your 1357 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:47,160 Speaker 3: indigenous language? What kind of steps could you possibly take? 1358 01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:51,000 Speaker 3: And we like to invasion a world where we dream 1359 01:09:51,080 --> 01:09:54,080 Speaker 3: the impossible dream and we get back to a place 1360 01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:58,640 Speaker 3: of strength, which takes action, which takes courage, which takes determination, 1361 01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 3: and also takes a ton of self analysis. Like colonization 1362 01:10:03,080 --> 01:10:06,120 Speaker 3: isn't just about people creating a bunch of harm to people. 1363 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:10,080 Speaker 3: It's like also the indigenous people internalizing that harm and 1364 01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:12,559 Speaker 3: then hurting each other, which we we got a lot 1365 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:13,960 Speaker 3: of work to do with that as well. 1366 01:10:14,600 --> 01:10:15,080 Speaker 2: Amazing. 1367 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:19,840 Speaker 1: Is there a work of media social media that you've 1368 01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:20,519 Speaker 1: been enjoying? 1369 01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:24,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there's two. There's one that's really just 1370 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 3: funny where there was a girl who gets in a 1371 01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:30,120 Speaker 3: car on Instagram and says like, I worked ten hours. 1372 01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:33,840 Speaker 3: All I want is Wingstop fucking drive hurt. 1373 01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:36,160 Speaker 1: I mean, we get the audio real quick of that, 1374 01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 1: he said, I'm the email, let's watch it just comes in, 1375 01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:47,960 Speaker 1: enters the car on but it's a mass and this 1376 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:50,519 Speaker 1: guy like puts it to a metal song and it's 1377 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,519 Speaker 1: it's a brilliant piece of social media. 1378 01:10:54,280 --> 01:11:06,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, stop fucking drive. 1379 01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:12,240 Speaker 1: Her phone are dying in the background and they're like, yo, 1380 01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:13,920 Speaker 1: we just picked her up. 1381 01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:18,880 Speaker 3: It's just such a brilliant mashup. And then I think 1382 01:11:18,920 --> 01:11:23,600 Speaker 3: the second one was on TikTok. There's a Maori just 1383 01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 3: a wonderful explanation of what decolonization is and isn't because 1384 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:30,639 Speaker 3: a lot of people they get really scared of that word. 1385 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:33,240 Speaker 3: But I think we don't need to be scared of 1386 01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:36,200 Speaker 3: that word. I think we need to understand what people 1387 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:39,960 Speaker 3: are saying. And it's not the removal of whiteness. It's 1388 01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:43,400 Speaker 3: not going back to some pre contact state. Because sometimes 1389 01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:45,640 Speaker 3: when we talk about decolonization, people are like, well, and 1390 01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:49,000 Speaker 3: give me the keys to your car and your fucking phone, right, 1391 01:11:49,200 --> 01:11:51,640 Speaker 3: And it's like, no, that's not what we're talking about. Like, 1392 01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:54,000 Speaker 3: it's a lot more complex than that, and I think 1393 01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:55,680 Speaker 3: this clip explains it really well. 1394 01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:59,679 Speaker 6: Yeah, colonization is lists about returning to a pre colonial 1395 01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 6: societ and more about recognizing that we live under a 1396 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:06,000 Speaker 6: colonial system, that things are the way they are not 1397 01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:10,280 Speaker 6: by accident, but because a particular ideology has systematically erased 1398 01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:14,960 Speaker 6: others while normalizing itself. Once something is normalized, it's hard 1399 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:16,360 Speaker 6: to imagine anything else. 1400 01:12:16,840 --> 01:12:18,799 Speaker 1: We become confined. 1401 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:22,200 Speaker 6: Within that particular ideology, and then the mindset of hmm, 1402 01:12:22,360 --> 01:12:25,800 Speaker 6: it's always been this way starts to creep in, and 1403 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,719 Speaker 6: then the origins of the colonizers, which in our case 1404 01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:31,559 Speaker 6: was a very violent one, can be forgotten. We start 1405 01:12:31,600 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 6: sweeping things under the rug, and that's why many people 1406 01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:37,320 Speaker 6: are confused by things like the Maldi Health Authority and 1407 01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:40,800 Speaker 6: even Ewie settlements. And so when we're able to recognize 1408 01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:44,000 Speaker 6: these structures through what will be a never ending process 1409 01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:47,679 Speaker 6: of decolonization, it helps us move forward towards a society 1410 01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:51,000 Speaker 6: which doesn't just straw inspiration from a diversity of spaces, 1411 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:53,240 Speaker 6: but is also self aware. 1412 01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:58,559 Speaker 1: Boom boom, awesome, amazing, Thank you, Miles.
