We've been talking 427 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: about this for a while because he's been like the 428 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: great hope of the mainstream media and the people who 429 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,360 Speaker 1: were you know, who wanted Jed Bush or Jeb Bush 430 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 1: before Trump, like you know, they were the people who 431 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: discounted Trump, who were Republicans, like this is their hope. 432 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: They're like, all right, enough with the Trump silliness. We 433 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: have this other great candidate. We're going to move on. 434 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: And it's just like twenty sixteen all over again, or 435 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,239 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, I guess the Republican primaries where it's just like, 436 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,719 Speaker 1: oh wait, nobody wants to vote for this motherfucker. 437 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 5: Right, But then that's the test that Republicans had, right, 438 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 5: because if you're a Republican now you're really being asked 439 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 5: the question you'll vote is it based on actual ideology 440 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 5: or just on fandom, you know, because maybe you voted 441 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 5: for Trump for fandom, but now if Rond de Santis 442 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 5: comes in, like that's the actual test of how much 443 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 5: you believe in your ideology. 444 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, but unfortunately, like it's gonna it's basically like Marvel, 445 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 3: like the MCU. Now it's all about fandoms. There's nothing 446 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 3: about policy. It's like, oh, this guy's kind of like 447 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 3: Fanos almost, but like and he's gonna own the Libs 448 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 3: with how powerful and like, you know, how regressive he is. 449 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 3: But yeah, like with Rond DeSantis, he's really trying to 450 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 3: differentiate himself by trying to run to the right of 451 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 3: Donald Trump, which is what worries some of these donors 452 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 3: because Ronda Santis has been very enthusiastic about how he's 453 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 3: just gonna just completely knee cap abortion in Florida. The 454 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 3: state legislature they just passed a bill that would ban 455 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 3: abortion after six six weeks, when most people don't even 456 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 3: know they're pregnant. And DeSantis is like, I'm signing that shit. Okay, 457 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 3: watch this because I'm actually about overturning Roe v. 458 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: Wade. 459 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 3: Okay, And again he's trying to court this very hyper 460 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 3: conservative audience. Going into the primary. But a lot of 461 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 3: people who are just onlookers are just sort of saying 462 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 3: this like abortion thing with conservatives. It is one of 463 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 3: the most consistently losing messages in recent memory. Like it's 464 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 3: it's been lost after loss with these candidates who like 465 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 3: evoke their like I'm anti choice, and most people with 466 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 3: you know, value body autonomy or like yeah, no that 467 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 3: I'm gonna move on from that, which is. 468 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: Most people like that. Most people do value the body autonomy, 469 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: and that's why it's such a political loser. 470 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't even think it's you know, sometimes when 471 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 5: i'm when I see regressive policies just sort of worldwide. 472 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 5: You know, something I tell myself is everybody who's upset 473 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 5: at you is going to be dead in ten years. 474 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 5: Whenever I'm in trouble, right right, I feel like, you know, 475 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 5: like on your last day of work, that's when you 476 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 5: take a shit in your boss's office and walk up, right. 477 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 5: Of course, I feel for this generation of politicians and leaders, 478 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 5: they've just figured this is their last day at work. 479 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, you know, in the boss, except they are 480 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 5: the boss and they're taking a ship in each of 481 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 5: our cubicles as they go, they're not going to be 482 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 5: around the right right. 483 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 1: That's an important part. 484 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 3: And like, meanwhile, too, this is kind of like Republicans 485 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 3: across the country are really doubling down on the abortion 486 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 3: issue with like the worst possible takes.

This is this is the problem when we 496 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 3: give people body autonomy. 497 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we have killed two thousand babies since abortion 498 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 2: became legal. 499 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 3: Just so you know, he means two hundred thousand. He 500 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 3: meant to edit that, but he's gonna keep saying two 501 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 3: thousand because he doesn't. He doesn't even have this monologue memorized. 502 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 2: Okay, those are two thousand people in the state of 503 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 2: Nebraska that could be working and filling some of those 504 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 2: positions and we have vacancies, they're not here. Instead, our 505 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 2: state population has not grown except by those foreigners who 506 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 2: have moved here or refugees have been placed here. 507 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 1: Why is that. 508 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 2: It's because we've killed two hundred thousand people. These are 509 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 2: people we've killed. 510 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 3: So there's that's that's phase one of that take of 511 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 3: He was like, yeah, so you know, I hate to 512 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 3: say it, but it's these brown people that are moving 513 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 3: in that are replacing the little white babies that I'm 514 00:25:56,119 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 3: talking about in Nebraska. But again, he's just he's relying 515 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 3: on this very racist trope that we've seen from Charlottesville 516 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 3: and many other places when you hear like they will 517 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:07,880 Speaker 3: not replace us type of shit. 518 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 5: Is that what you think the abortion thing is driven by, 519 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 5: is that we need to have enough of a white 520 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 5: population going out there. Is that what you think it is? 521 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: I think it's one of the things they're trying. I think, 522 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: you know, like that that's one of the arguments they're 523 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: testing out. I think a lot of it is about 524 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 1: wanting to control women and not like having a patriarchal 525 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 1: society that is like down to bodily autonomy. But it 526 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: is it is something that like very wealthy industrialists like 527 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,120 Speaker 1: talk about in private about this idea of like are 528 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 1: there enough babies? And are there enough white babies? And 529 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: what does that mean to the racial makeup of the country? 530 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 5: So or is there enough revenue for this big industry 531 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 5: that is babies, right? 532 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: Yeah? 533 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 3: Do we have enough customers in general? 534 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? But yeah, it is. It's something too. 535 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 3: That again, what by evoking or invoking the replacement theory 536 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 3: you the ears up of like ethno nationalists, white supremacists, 537 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 3: and also evangelicals who are like, oh yeah, good abortion 538 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 3: and yes, more white people. I like that too because 539 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 3: I fear a brown America And so yeah, that's that's 540 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 3: one take. His colleague John Lowe decided he was going 541 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 3: to use for his rhetorical attack. He was going to 542 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 3: read from a spooky book of ghost stories to really 543 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 3: bring the point home about how abortion is just so 544 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 3: very bad. Here's him again, Be careful is a very 545 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 3: spooky ghost story he's about to tell. 546 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 7: With a brand new baby in a womb, marrying her 547 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 7: new baby in her womb, she approaches Elizabeth and John 548 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 7: is in Elizabeth's womb, and the Holy Spirit is communicated 549 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 7: in some miraculous, incredible way. From the womb of the 550 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 7: Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ himself to the womb of Elizabeth, 551 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 7: John the Baptist and John leapt And that is why 552 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 7: abortion is clearly evil. 553 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 1: Boom laugh track. They're laughing, yo. 554 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 7: And that is why abortion is clearly evil. 555 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 5: Take you to peat it? 556 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, you needed another bite of that punchline. 557 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, so he said that is wow. I mean, see 558 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: somebody behind him the camera like it's it's worth looking 559 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 1: at because there's somebody behind him, Like I don't know 560 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 1: if they're from the media, but they just like when 561 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:32,400 Speaker 1: they realize what he's doing, they just like face Yeah. 562 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like when he's like, wait, hold on, what 563 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 3: he's like texting his wife, He's like, you're not gonna 564 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 3: leave what this fucking guy just said? 565 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I would have paved somebody five thousand dollars to 566 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 5: just scream Jesus is brown. 567 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,239 Speaker 1: By the way, Yeah exactly. Are you sure about that? 568 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: Are you sure you want to make sure about that's? 569 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: Want to tell no seriously? And again I mean, but hey, 570 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: you hear that. Libs. 571 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 3: Two ladies touched bellies and the one lady's ghost baby 572 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 3: made the other baby move. So check made assholes. Abortion 573 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 3: is evil, Like, huh, really. 574 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 5: Think about your ideological battle in America that I find 575 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 5: hilarious as a liberal my sure, right and somebody who's 576 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 5: quite left it. Why would you have so much loathing 577 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 5: for people who already have so much self loathing like this, 578 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 5: nobody hates on themselves more than the average liberal. You know, 579 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 5: we're just like a part of anxiety and self loading, 580 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 5: Like we're hating ourselves enough for all of you. 581 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 3: You don't need to do it, No, truly, it's it's 582 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 3: I mean again, this is like, this is this is 583 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 3: your brain on anti choice rhetoric, folks, you know the 584 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 3: people you know, the like left to make a compelling 585 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 3: case in some of these state houses have the charisma 586 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 3: of an evil high school principle from an eighties movie. 587 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 3: And I think while most people are thinking, why the 588 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 3: fuck are they doing this when it's clear they've been 589 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 3: losing election after election and like once were they thought 590 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 3: they were going to change this like State Supreme Court Wisconsin, 591 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 3: like over this issue, Like, we have to realize that 592 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 3: people are getting right now in primary mode and they 593 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 3: just want to make their case to the base first, 594 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 3: even if it alienates I don't know, seventy percent of 595 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 3: the country when they hear it. And the overall strategy, 596 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 3: especially in Rohnda Santis's case, as this one political science 597 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 3: professor Jack Bitney puts it, is he is betting on disaster. 598 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 3: That is really what's going on too. Like the reason 599 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 3: they're they're still stoking this fire is because they are 600 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 3: hoping for some kind of terrible recession or foreign policy 601 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 3: blunder disaster to help swing the focus off of the 602 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 3: you know, you know, regression or the restricting of body 603 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 3: a tanimir you know, our own reproductive rights. 604 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's do you also feel like maybe you know, 605 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 5: you need some fire to stoke, right at the end 606 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 5: of the day in a in a politically charged year, 607 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 5: and maybe the problem or the development of America as 608 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 5: you look at it, is that you're not able to 609 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 5: stoke a religious file for whatever reason, because because you've 610 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 5: kind of moved beyond that right and in many countries 611 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 5: in the world, that's the basis of an election is 612 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 5: basic religious polarization. This religion against that religion, right, and 613 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 5: you don't get to do that anymore. So really all 614 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 5: you have is abortion and guns, which kind of feels 615 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 5: similar to religions right in modern America. 616 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: You know, that's a fantastic point. 617 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 3: And yeah, I mean the way that we do, like 618 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 3: look at it quite literally probably worship gun culture and 619 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 3: things like that. It is the way and the way 620 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 3: it's evoked too. You know, like people even say that, 621 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 3: you know, Jesus even is sanctioning weapons. I don't know 622 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 3: if you know this in a very charitable interpretation for 623 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 3: their own means. But again, like even when they think 624 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 3: of like let's hope there's COVID twenty three or something 625 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 3: that is going to completely change the conversation. I mean, 626 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 3: you know, abortion is a fundamental right and so one 627 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 3: that probably becomes even more important if there's economic uncertainty. 628 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 3: Like even if praying for a recession, I think people 629 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 3: even be more concerned with, Oh, if with my financial 630 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 3: outlook being a certain way, it's probably even more important 631 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 3: to me to be able to decide when I'm having 632 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 3: a family or I don't think people are like or 633 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 3: the idea that you know, if they have this take 634 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 3: of like Joe Biden is gonna make America look weak 635 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 3: to our enemies. I don't think suddenly your concerns about 636 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 3: body autonomy go out the window. So it's a very 637 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,719 Speaker 3: It's just it's just this weird issue that they's they 638 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 3: keep holding on to. But it makes more sense if 639 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 3: you consider that. It's like I think they're just hoping 640 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 3: another issue comes up because they don't they'd rather make 641 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 3: an election be like, look at how bad Joe Biden 642 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 3: messed up the economy than them having to defend here's 643 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 3: why we believe you shouldn't have any reproductive rights. 644 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I do get nervous every time the 645 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: Republicans are banking on a disaster because they have a 646 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: way of like, you know, the story of Nixon and 647 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: Kissinger prolong the Vietnam War, Like they Nixon was running 648 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: for president against Johnson's vice president. Johnson was about to 649 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: like have a peace treaty, and they actively like went 650 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 1: to Vietnam and sabotaged the peace treaty more like it's 651 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 1: actually not gonna be a good deal. We'll get you 652 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: a better deal and we're gonna win. Like is one 653 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: of the most profound acts of evil that I feel 654 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: like probably got a little memory hold because it didn't 655 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: come out until like decades after. I think it was 656 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: like the sort of shit that like people at the 657 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: time were like Nixon, so evil who probably did that, 658 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: but like he did do that, he did that shit, right, 659 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: But like they they will sabotage, They will cause the 660 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: death of tens of thousands of Americans in order to 661 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 1: get power. So anytime the Republicans are like betting on disaster, 662 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: I'm always a little bit worried, especially when it ties 663 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: to the economy, which is a complex system driven by Republicans, 664 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 1: a bunch of rich people who are Republicans that like. 665 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 3: And they could be the arkanact of in default too, 666 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 3: you know what I meantruction. 667 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 5: I think also if you consider that especially elections, like 668 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 5: I have a friend who's a politician, and he says, 669 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 5: you know, the big mistake that people make is you 670 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 5: think that people take a long time to make a 671 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 5: decision about who they vote for. But if you're a politician, 672 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 5: you understand that you have twenty seconds of a person's time. 673 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 5: It's a twenty second decision, and that any sort of 674 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 5: big election issue that really warrants introspection is a complex, 675 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 5: nuanced issue. Right, So what did Biden do to the economy, etcetera, etcetera. 676 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 5: You got to go into that. But the reason they 677 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 5: keep repeating the greatest hits because the greatest hits represent 678 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 5: the minimum amount of words. It's literally grammar in election community, 679 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:50,359 Speaker 5: low taxes, pro guns, pro choice. You know, they're just 680 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 5: very easy to drive decisions. And so it's kind of 681 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 5: disheartening to think about these gigantic issues just being boiled 682 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 5: down to economy of woods. Yeah, for communication, for reaching people, 683 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 5: but economy of woods gives you your father's reach. It's 684 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 5: actually a lot more simple than we think it is, right, 685 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 5: And it's. 686 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 3: Just like, yeah, the term like thought killing cliche is 687 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,479 Speaker 3: also the other thing that's used. It's like just once 688 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 3: you hear that, it'll end any kind of further thought. 689 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 3: Once you hear a certain talking. 690 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 5: Less immigrants, more guns, now what taxes, you just understand shit. 691 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 5: And so you have to keep the greatest hits in 692 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 5: their current form. So you have to keep talking about emotion, save. 693 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 3: Babies despite Yeah, And it's like so funny too, because 694 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:36,320 Speaker 3: like even after the last election, Republicans are like, we lost, 695 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 3: we got to do something about getting more suburban women, 696 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 3: and we got it. 697 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: We got it. 698 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 3: Spooky ghost stories about how baby Jesus got John the 699 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 3: Baptist to kick his mommy's tummy gave. 700 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,720 Speaker 1: Him a forced ghost high five through his mother's belly 701 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: and they did a flip. 702 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and that's why you shouldn't make be able 703 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,720 Speaker 3: to have any decision making ability over your own body. 704 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: Okay, both for us. Well, we have a new segment 705 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 1: on this show. It's called Woke Alerts because no, it's 706 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: just a like some political action committee, Consumers Research is 707 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: providing woke alerts to notify you when your favorite company 708 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: get goes to woke. I mean it's I feel like 709 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: we're seeing it with like the bud Light thing. I 710 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: like that. 711 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 3: They they said to woke alert out for Blackrock. Yeah yeah, 712 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 3: really woke Wall Street. Yeah yeah, they always charge that 713 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 3: woke Wall Street. But I mean this seems like, to 714 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,800 Speaker 3: be honest, it's easy to make fun of. It seems 715 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 3: like a winning strategy to me because corporations are like 716 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 3: very skittish, and you can control what a corporation thinks 717 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 3: is happening with a mailing campaign or you know, getting 718 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 3: twenty people to just send a bunch of angry emails 719 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 3: to a corporate you know, like they they're not they 720 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 3: they're not like they don't have morals. They all they 721 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 3: have is like they're doing their best to see what 722 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 3: they think is making people happy, and everyone is afraid 723 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 3: of being fired and line go up. If mine go up, 724 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 3: then we're good. Make sure the line goes up, though, please. 725 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 1: It's Consumer's Research is basically a lobbying firm under the 726 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 1: guise of a consumer watchdog. It's funded by dark money. 727 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,280 Speaker 1: They recently made the news for their effort to prevent 728 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: Wall Street from factor and climate change into investment decisions. 729 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: And it's they're just like launching a huge campaign to 730 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: anything environmental social progress. They're going to be there to 731 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: claim that it is woke, but like some of the 732 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: stuff seems like confusing, Like it seems like they're like 733 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:51,959 Speaker 1: they freaked out when the American airlines like reduced leg 734 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:57,800 Speaker 1: room on flights, which I guess that's woke they're they're claiming. 735 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 5: I mean, do they even define what woke is? 736 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 1: No? 737 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 5: No, And again, anyone define what. 738 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 1: Isn't nobody can.

Is it? 783 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 3: From my perspective, they have perfectly encapsulated the feeling of 784 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 3: like white hegemony or like cis head hegemony, and the 785 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 3: creeping influence of people that want more inclusive language, that 786 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 3: want more more inclusive society, and so those things because 787 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 3: to them, they're saying Oh, I gotta feel bad because 788 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 3: now I got to use people's pronouns. People have preferred pronouns. 789 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: That's woke. 790 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 3: Oh I have to now I can't. I like, I'm 791 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 3: We're supposed to teach of like a good faith interpretation 792 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 3: of American history to kids so they understand this, that's woke. 793 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 3: So anything that upsets that balance or suddenly puts these 794 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 3: people in a position they're like, oh, I got to 795 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 3: feel bad about this, or I have to change the 796 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 3: way I've been interacting with other people. That's how they 797 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 3: just sort of deploy that word as a sort of 798 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 3: the discomfort around any kind of progress that's occurring. And 799 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 3: I guess it's become basically. 800 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's not even what you define this progress, it's 801 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 5: it's rewiring. Anything that requires rewired, Yes, would be easily 802 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 5: determined as being allegedly buke. 803 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 1: Let's leg room on an American Airlines flight. That's rewiring, 804 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,919 Speaker 1: my posture. But I think you're making a really good 805 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 1: point that they by being the ones who focus on 806 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 1: woke like, they are the ones who keep bringing this 807 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 1: ship up over and over again. And we saw it 808 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 1: in the last midterm elections that like people, you know, 809 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 1: they're the ones who are talking about you know, trans 810 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 1: people and like top surgery and you know, all all 811 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: these different things that people who live in Illinois, like 812 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,959 Speaker 1: where you went to college, might not care that much about. 813 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: But they are like that becomes their talking point and 814 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 1: like they own it and they're the ones who are 815 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 1: like talking about it. And I feel like it's also 816 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: a losing political strategy, but it's one that gets a 817 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,439 Speaker 1: lot of attention, and so they they're able to kind 818 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: of profit off of it. 819 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 5: I think it tracks because you have such a large 820 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:23,960 Speaker 5: liberal media that picks it up as well, right on 821 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,279 Speaker 5: both sides at tracks. But but I do think like, Okay, 822 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,640 Speaker 5: I had host parents, and my host parents, one of 823 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,840 Speaker 5: them was a cafeteria lady and one of them was 824 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 5: a truckle, right, And I mean, to them, the fact 825 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 5: that I was an Indian tespion was as alien as 826 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 5: the fact that you know that somebody was woke, et cetera, 827 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 5: et cetera. But I eventually say, if you went up 828 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,399 Speaker 5: to either of those people and you were like, oh 829 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 5: my god, you got to use people's pronouns now, you know, 830 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 5: et cetera, they'd be like, I'll call you a bottle 831 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 5: of apple sauce if you want me to call you 832 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 5: that shit if my taxes go down, you know, or 833 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 5: if my life is made easier. And to take sort 834 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:06,160 Speaker 5: of their narrative and make it about these things is 835 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 5: almost to disregard their real narrative. 836 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, because I mean on this level, they've 837 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 3: the GOP especially has completely abandoned any kind of policy. 838 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 3: There's nothing Everything they evoke has nothing to do with 839 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:23,319 Speaker 3: substantive policy. It's about these culture war grievances because they 840 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 3: feel that I think they saw that that's energizing people 841 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 3: more so in like a rallies type situation where people 842 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 3: are coming out and they've seen like school like these 843 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 3: school board meetings go up with a lot of people 844 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 3: like I don't want my kids knowing about like slavery 845 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 3: in this country or whatever. And I think they're very 846 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 3: short sightedly being like, okay, that bottle that While in 847 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:45,839 Speaker 3: the meantime, to your point, the very real situation of 848 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 3: living in the United States is also a force that 849 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 3: acts on everyone, and they're everybody is having to face 850 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:57,640 Speaker 3: inflation or unaffordable housing, or wage stagnation and limited options 851 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 3: for medical care. But because all of their things aren't 852 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 3: really going to the heart of correcting those things. It's 853 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,720 Speaker 3: much easier just go straight to oh my god, remember 854 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 3: when you used to be able to just say, like, 855 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 3: just use slurs against gay people in public, and it 856 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 3: wasn't you didn't get canceled and like that. To them, 857 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 3: it feels like, Okay, that's a better place to just 858 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,880 Speaker 3: operate from because we're not going to have a substantive 859 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 3: policy debate right now because we've completely just normalized this 860 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 3: sort of like culture war grievance thing as being the 861 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 3: way we talk about politics. 862 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:32,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, both sides are focused on distracting people from the 863 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 1: core thing that they actually care about, which is like 864 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:38,959 Speaker 1: their material well being. And you know, both sides would 865 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:43,839 Speaker 1: rather not have corporations economic health matter more than their 866 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,720 Speaker 1: physical health. But that is the world that both sides 867 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 1: actually want to keep in place, and so they generate 868 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 1: a bunch of noise to distract people. Hopefully that is 869 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:56,319 Speaker 1: their goal. 870 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 5: But I also think that it's a very interesting time 871 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 5: for your country. And I say this respectfully, but you know, 872 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 5: I think America is getting used to the fact that 873 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 5: what used to be one seat at the table is 874 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 5: now many seats at the table, you know, at least 875 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 5: the global table. It's a different world we live in 876 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 5: right now. Everybody's voice is equally amplified. But like I 877 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 5: remember going to college in America in nineteen ninety nine, 878 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 5: right in two thousand and two thousand and one, so 879 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 5: just spit on nine to eleven. I feel like it 880 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:29,359 Speaker 5: didn't really matter who the president was at that moment 881 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 5: in time in America, or at least it mattered less 882 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,959 Speaker 5: because you were so far ahead of the global pack, 883 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 5: you know, and there wasn't this big culture conversation, and 884 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 5: everybody's voices weren't amplified. Your system had been so set 885 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 5: that it really mattered very little who the president was, 886 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 5: and whether you were Republican or Democrat. You were gonna 887 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:51,279 Speaker 5: be okay no matter who the president was. And I 888 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 5: feel like that's somehow changed now and now it really 889 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 5: matters ideologically who the president is. 890 00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. 891 00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 3: I think part of that too is just we've gone 892 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 3: from I think there's gradual and a gradual increase in 893 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 3: people actually trying to understand civics in this country now 894 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 3: because I think a lot for the longest time, it 895 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:10,920 Speaker 3: didn't matter, and like the boom years of the nineties 896 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:14,160 Speaker 3: for many people, but there are plenty communities that began 897 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 3: to stagnate, and those were sort of like niche things 898 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 3: that you would have to be really tapped into, like 899 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 3: American culture, to really care about. And now is like, 900 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 3: I think the degradation of like our infrastructure and all 901 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 3: these things are becoming more widespread and felt people are 902 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 3: beginning to understand more. It's like, oh wait, what are 903 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 3: these policies again? 904 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 5: Oh? 905 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:36,839 Speaker 3: Right, before it used to be like, yeah, you care 906 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 3: about babies, but abortion was never under threat, but then 907 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 3: now it is, and suddenly it's like, well, hold on now, 908 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,319 Speaker 3: like that that actually fucking matters to me. 909 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: And so I think it's. 910 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 3: Part and parcel of just how how difficult life is 911 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 3: becoming for people, and also having to inform yourself of 912 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 3: like you can't just be passive. But along what goes 913 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 3: alongside of that is you have all these media apparatuses 914 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 3: that are just there to get your attention and maybe 915 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 3: say like, yeah, I know it could be about this, 916 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,400 Speaker 3: but let's talk about this other issue rather than you know, 917 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 3: do we live in a corporatetocracy with that are run 918 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 3: by a bunch of plutocrats? And is that something we 919 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 3: need to be concerned about. It's easier to say the 920 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 3: Republicans won't do anything about guns, and you know, the 921 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,919 Speaker 3: Republicans just go the Democrats are woke when I think 922 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 3: all people would rather say I would like to make 923 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 3: more money at my job, I would like to afford 924 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:25,919 Speaker 3: a house. I don't want to go into crippling debt 925 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,879 Speaker 3: because I want an education. Yeah, Like, take take those 926 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 3: points and make those real for me. Everything else is 927 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,960 Speaker 3: just to avoid the real reconciliation or the real reckoning 928 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 3: that has to occur in this country, because that's I 929 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,239 Speaker 3: think one of our greatest strengths as a culture is 930 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 3: their ability to avoid a reckoning with a lot of 931 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 3: the shit that's been going on and just kind of 932 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 3: paper over the cracks until I don't know, it becomes 933 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 3: completely untenable. 934 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, guys, I really think your election comes down to 935 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:56,439 Speaker 5: like a twenty minute debate. Like it's very entertaining, but 936 00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 5: it really it will. That's the American election. It's that 937 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 5: twenty minute debate. I think you you win and lose 938 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:05,800 Speaker 5: in that debate. It's it's really it's it's like watching gladiators. 939 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,280 Speaker 5: It really is watching collection. 940 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 3: And yeah, and that's the difference between potentially another global 941 00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:15,439 Speaker 3: military conflict is because one guy made fun of one 942 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 3: old white guy made fun of the other old white 943 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:19,839 Speaker 3: guy on a stage, and people are like, yeah, all right, 944 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 3: that's it. He owned him, own owned him. Oh then poned. 945 00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 3: Wait what I'm being conscripted? 946 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:30,279 Speaker 1: And who knows if there's even anybody still making up 947 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,239 Speaker 1: their mind at this point, who's still making up their 948 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 1: mind about Donald Trump and Joe Biden? Like what is 949 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 1: it even twenty minutes? Like what would it take for 950 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:41,640 Speaker 1: anybody to feel like, Wait, Donald Trump is running for president? 951 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:45,399 Speaker 3: This guy, all right, whereas let me see where he's 952 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,400 Speaker 3: at on the issues and then I'll get back to you. 953 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 8: Right, all right, Let's take a quick break and we'll 954 00:48:50,280 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 8: be right back. And we're back. 955 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,439 Speaker 1: And I do just want to talk about and vere 956 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 1: get your kind of perspective on guns, because we talk 957 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 1: a lot about it, the fact that the presence of guns, 958 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 1: the fact that gun sales shot through the roof, that 959 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 1: that pun was unintended, but there are probably plenty of 960 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 1: guns inadvertently shooting through the roof because so many there 961 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,800 Speaker 1: are so many new gun owners in the United States now, 962 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 1: because the gun industry is very successful at turning the 963 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:35,479 Speaker 1: anxiety that we were just talking about into sales. And 964 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 1: so there's a news story that came out at the 965 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 1: end last week that after the mass shooting that happened 966 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:46,719 Speaker 1: on Monday in Kentucky, the actual gun used in that 967 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 1: mass shooting was sold at auction to a licensed dealer. 968 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:54,920 Speaker 1: And this is the like that that's the system in 969 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 1: many US states, Like many US states have a law 970 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 1: that says the police can't keep guns, like once they 971 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 1: confiscate a gun, they have to get it back on 972 00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 1: the street. Washington State where police are allowed to decide 973 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 1: whether or not to sell guns, that have sold dozens 974 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 1: of AR fifteens, AK forty sevens and other assault weapons, 975 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 1: and like said, some of these weapons are then like 976 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 1: used to shoot police, Like so that this is actually 977 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 1: the rare conservative policy, like gun policy where the police 978 00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 1: are actually like, we would prefer that this wasn't the 979 00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 1: case because these guns keep shooting our officers after we 980 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: put them back out there. But the gun lobby and 981 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 1: everything makes it so that like you just can't. 982 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:43,920 Speaker 3: Well, they made it. They made it in Kategy. It's 983 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 3: just a law that you can't destroy it, you know 984 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 3: what I mean? That's it's just because it's the law 985 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:51,960 Speaker 3: that you can't destroy it, because like you can't do that. 986 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 1: Don't destroy the gun, you gotta sell it. It's like 987 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 1: burning a bible, you know, like it is a religious thing. 988 00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 1: You can't destroy a gun. That's the most sacred thing 989 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 1: in the United States. 990 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 3: Check the drawer of the nightstand in your hotel room. 991 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 1: Is there a gun. There's a place there by the gideons. 992 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:12,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think. I mean, and again speaking from an 993 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 5: outsider's perspective and speaking from a largely very non violent country. Historically, 994 00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:23,279 Speaker 5: even our our independence movement was was non violent, you know. 995 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 5: So I think it's pure economics. I think that, you know, 996 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,239 Speaker 5: weapons of mass destruction always come with like contracts of 997 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,880 Speaker 5: mass production, and people forget that, you know. And I 998 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 5: think the greatest con narratively that has ever been pulled 999 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 5: by the gun industry is that to preserve guns is 1000 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:48,799 Speaker 5: somehow a preservation of American voice, or a preservation of 1001 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 5: American culture, or a preservation of American values. And that's 1002 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,719 Speaker 5: actually not the case. Because if if a preservation of 1003 00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 5: guns is a preservation of American values, then from the 1004 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:02,040 Speaker 5: same timing, a present of segregation is also a preservation 1005 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,880 Speaker 5: of American values and a preservation of other things. So 1006 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,880 Speaker 5: if you're not preserving those things, you don't have to 1007 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:11,680 Speaker 5: preserve guns either. If you can evolve from segregation, you 1008 00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:15,719 Speaker 5: can evolve from guns. But this narrative that they've put in, 1009 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 5: which is to preserve guns is to preserve America, is 1010 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 5: just gigantically reinforced. Oh yeah, and I don't think it 1011 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 5: changes unless the average American doesn't feel like a gun 1012 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:32,320 Speaker 5: makes them American. That's what it needs to change. 1013 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like because on one side you have people 1014 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 3: that are so just scared around that, like they're like, 1015 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:41,319 Speaker 3: I just need a gun because I don't know what 1016 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,200 Speaker 3: could happen, what could happen in my neighborhood. And then 1017 00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 3: you do have those people like it's my right to 1018 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 3: own this anti aircraft gun because of the Second Amendment, 1019 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,480 Speaker 3: which is part of our Constitution. I know some libs 1020 00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:54,839 Speaker 3: will call it a spooky post it note signed by 1021 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,879 Speaker 3: racists from two hundred and fifty years whatever years ago, 1022 00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 3: but that's our right. And yet to your point, it's 1023 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 3: like it's the Constitution is one of the biggest things 1024 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,960 Speaker 3: that people will evoke in terms of like the rhetoric 1025 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:09,920 Speaker 3: of it is like, because that's our document and we 1026 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 3: can't just tear that up, even though we've had to 1027 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:16,839 Speaker 3: amend it a few times, right, and yeah, it's it's 1028 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 3: become a very intoxicating argument and to the point where 1029 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 3: like we're only seeing the absurdity of it become more 1030 00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:25,239 Speaker 3: and more in our face. Now when you have governors 1031 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 3: say like, my friend was shot in that mass shooting 1032 00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:32,120 Speaker 3: and then say nothing about gun control after, and then. 1033 00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:34,560 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, that's hands in pockets right at 1034 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 5: the end of the day. But I do think from 1035 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 5: a complete outsider's perspective, it's not the gun that makes 1036 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 5: you American. It's what happens after the gun that makes 1037 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:45,880 Speaker 5: you American. That's why people come to your country. 1038 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 1: Right. 1039 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 5: The fact that you can dial nine one one and 1040 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 5: a couple will be then thirty seconds, and that you 1041 00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 5: will drive to the hospital on a road that is 1042 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:56,839 Speaker 5: perfectly paved and perfectly late at night and walk into 1043 00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 5: a hospital with state of the art technology and be 1044 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:02,319 Speaker 5: able to be treated. That's the appeal. You know, it's 1045 00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:02,880 Speaker 5: not the guns. 1046 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:04,800 Speaker 1: The promise. That's the promise. 1047 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:09,839 Speaker 5: The ownership of the gun. People are coming across that, Oh, 1048 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:11,799 Speaker 5: fuck in case I have a run into a gun, 1049 00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 5: America will take care of me. That's why people come 1050 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 5: to you, if they come to you, you know. So 1051 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:20,440 Speaker 5: I'd love to see the reinforcement of that narrative, and 1052 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:21,760 Speaker 5: I just don't see. 1053 00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:24,120 Speaker 3: It well and again because if you think about it 1054 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:27,800 Speaker 3: right to the point of like mass production, it's easier 1055 00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:29,719 Speaker 3: to be like, well, that keeps an industry going if 1056 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 3: we're suddenly like folks, people come to us because if 1057 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:36,120 Speaker 3: we have this robust infrastructure or these other things, that 1058 00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:38,359 Speaker 3: would also begin a lot of conversation of how we've 1059 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:41,920 Speaker 3: not reinvested in our own country, like we're like cruising 1060 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:44,800 Speaker 3: off of like you know, post World War two investment 1061 00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:46,880 Speaker 3: for like many decades now, especially when you look at 1062 00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,959 Speaker 3: like public schools and things like that, where you'd hope 1063 00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 3: to be like, man, like, we need to reinvest in 1064 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:55,319 Speaker 3: a lot of these things, but because some of those 1065 00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 3: would probably create a need for like more like you know, 1066 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,319 Speaker 3: tax revenue and things like that just becomes a like 1067 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 3: a like a hot button issue because then we have 1068 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:07,360 Speaker 3: to start talking about like our progressive tax systems, and 1069 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 3: it's easier just to be talking about the thing that 1070 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:13,280 Speaker 3: will make people money unfortunately, and yeah, like it it. 1071 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,600 Speaker 3: It really is something that I think a lot of 1072 00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:18,920 Speaker 3: Americans have lost sight of, is sort of people always 1073 00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 3: say like, this is the best fucking country, but they're not. 1074 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:23,799 Speaker 3: They're looking at it from their version of like I 1075 00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:26,880 Speaker 3: got Wi Fi and four K TV, this is the 1076 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:30,439 Speaker 3: best country and like the world versus to your point, 1077 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,440 Speaker 3: how a lot of other like the situation in other places. 1078 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 3: Why other people may believe that it's this is a 1079 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:40,239 Speaker 3: nicer place to live, although you know that it is 1080 00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:43,880 Speaker 3: an intoxicating advertisement we have and one that people end 1081 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:45,959 Speaker 3: up realizing is a little bit different when they arrive. 1082 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:50,320 Speaker 3: But overall, you know, you do see, like you understand 1083 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 3: why there's a little bit more stability here than other places, 1084 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,920 Speaker 3: although it's you know, rooted in some darker things at times. 1085 00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 5: Well I don't know why guns into your school system. 1086 00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:03,840 Speaker 5: And you know, I have two friends who are American 1087 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 5: and have an eight year old and a twelve year old, 1088 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 5: and they happen to go to college to school in India, 1089 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:12,320 Speaker 5: you know, And so all I can speak from is 1090 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:17,960 Speaker 5: from personal experience. Our school system is so hard that 1091 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 5: our collegiate system set us free, you know what I mean? 1092 00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:23,239 Speaker 5: It's almost like we were brought up to say, we 1093 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 5: have to work so hard in school so we can 1094 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 5: feel all the things we want to feel in college. 1095 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:31,720 Speaker 5: And I'm not saying that's a great system, but I'm saying, 1096 00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 5: how can you realter your school system so it keeps 1097 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:40,399 Speaker 5: kids busier and it keeps their minds more occupied, so 1098 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:42,799 Speaker 5: they don't turn on each other with these narratives. I 1099 00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,239 Speaker 5: think that's also a conversation to be had, you know, 1100 00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:46,400 Speaker 5: about your school system. 1101 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:50,399 Speaker 3: Like culturally in India, is education seen as a thing 1102 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:54,360 Speaker 3: that is like could be a runaway train, like ideologically, 1103 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 3: because that's sort of the like attitude. There's a lot 1104 00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 3: of hostility towards public education in the United States, where 1105 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:01,759 Speaker 3: you see people like I don't want my kid to 1106 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:03,160 Speaker 3: learn that, I don't want my kid to know Rosa 1107 00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:06,760 Speaker 3: Parks was black, and like these other things where you're 1108 00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:10,400 Speaker 3: seeing too that there's this it's like we're incentivizing like 1109 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:13,319 Speaker 3: the breakdown of public education too. And I think that's 1110 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 3: another thing that like we're having to fight against where 1111 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 3: you know, teachers are already like they're fleeing the industry 1112 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 3: because there's a lack of support, a lack of proper pay, 1113 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:26,000 Speaker 3: and we're making it as as an uninviting a place 1114 00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 3: for people who would like want to teach people to exist, 1115 00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 3: like to work and things like that. 1116 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 5: Well, no, I think for us, you know, but we're 1117 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 5: very young country. You have to keep that in mind. 1118 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:37,880 Speaker 5: You know, we got independence in nineteen forty seven, right, 1119 00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 5: and so for us education is a privilege, right and 1120 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 5: simply a privilege because it was kept away from us 1121 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 5: for so long. You know, for two hundred and fifty years, 1122 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 5: we weren't allowed to be educated by the British so 1123 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:54,080 Speaker 5: that we wouldn't prosper. So right now, my god, your 1124 00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 5: kid is going to school, Your kid is going to college. 1125 00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,440 Speaker 5: That's the first privilege that you have, right, that's the 1126 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:01,720 Speaker 5: first sign of privilege, apart from meals on the table, 1127 00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:05,440 Speaker 5: et cetera, et cetera. Is education, you know. So I 1128 00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:07,120 Speaker 5: don't even think we're at the point where we're like, 1129 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:11,320 Speaker 5: what kind of right narrative et cetera. Said Fuck, we're 1130 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 5: learning this is amazing. 1131 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:16,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been inverted you know here like it's not 1132 00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 3: no one. So many people are beginning to look at 1133 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 3: it with hostility and the rhetoric, especially with like a 1134 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:27,200 Speaker 3: lot of conservatives is like this hostility towards academia and 1135 00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 3: that like that's where indoctrination happens or whatever. And they've 1136 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:33,640 Speaker 3: made that a very like like a compelling talking point 1137 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 3: for their base to be able to look at that 1138 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 3: and not see that this is something that causes upward 1139 00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:42,280 Speaker 3: mobility or something that you know, black and brown people 1140 00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 3: see as a privilege too. That's why many people want 1141 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:48,240 Speaker 3: to go to college. But but again, the status quo 1142 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 3: is such that we're you know, we like right now 1143 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 3: we're having to fight this whole campaign of like school choice, 1144 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:56,560 Speaker 3: which is really just a way to say we need to. 1145 00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 1: Destroy the public school system. 1146 00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 3: And and so like, yeah, we're we have like some 1147 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 3: people understand the value of education and that it is 1148 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:09,560 Speaker 3: absolutely a privilege or you know, something worth just like 1149 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 3: being able to teach our kids like the most basic 1150 00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:16,000 Speaker 3: things about like our history or math or reading, while others, 1151 00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:18,680 Speaker 3: like you know, see it as a slippery slope into 1152 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 3: being woke, right or that they're like I'm going to 1153 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 3: teach my kid at home or something like that, or 1154 00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:24,680 Speaker 3: I don't want my kids with other kids that are 1155 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 3: different than them.
