0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:26.000
<v Speaker 1>surprisingly and so yeah, but yeah, I'm just about to

0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:28.040
<v Speaker 1>ask you, like, what is the what is the first

0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 1>month of motherhood been? Like? The first week is insane

0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:34.160
<v Speaker 1>because like you're just so shell shocked from like pushing

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:36.160
<v Speaker 1>from I mean like I probably he was like ten

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:39.360
<v Speaker 1>pounds pushing like a ten pound child practically. Uh, and

0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:42.560
<v Speaker 1>so like indis you're just like getting used to he's

0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:45.360
<v Speaker 1>crying in the nighttime and it feels like you're at war.

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:49.160
<v Speaker 1>It's like traumatic kind of you wake up like kind

0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:52.120
<v Speaker 1>of frees you out and just like emotionally you're all over.

0:01:52.440 --> 0:01:54.440
<v Speaker 1>And then after that I kind of settled into it

0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 1>was like all right, we're good, getting into a rhythm,

0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.640

0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:43.239

0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:06.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean as far as like all this, I've been,

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:08.079
<v Speaker 1>you know, just trying to hold it down in your

0:03:08.120 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 1>absence and stuff like that. But I mean other than that, man,

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:14.000
<v Speaker 1>I've been doing the same old grind, you know what

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean. I got a new single that I'm getting ready,

0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:18.919
<v Speaker 1>so I've been getting art and stuff for that. I've

0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:22.640
<v Speaker 1>really decided to go in not only on my merch

0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:25.480
<v Speaker 1>game but ours. So I've been, you know, working with

0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:29.560
<v Speaker 1>different artists, working on waiting on reparations, logos and shirts

0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:32.320
<v Speaker 1>and stickers and stuff. So we'll have we'll have a

0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 1>bunch of ship like that. I'm about to like straight

0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:38.120
<v Speaker 1>up get into the T shirt game like that. But

0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 1>we're about to have some of that stuff for y'all soon.

0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:43.600
<v Speaker 1>But um, I mean ship, we've been waiting a month.

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:47.600
<v Speaker 1>Let's get into it. Let's get into the first official

0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:51.680
<v Speaker 1>episode that the two of us have done in a while.

0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:54.400
<v Speaker 1>A minute last week doesn't count. That was that was

0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>some stock pilot ship. Yeah, but yeah, this week really

0:03:57.560 --> 0:04:00.640
<v Speaker 1>talking about UM JR. Polsonaro, who in any ways is

0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:03.560
<v Speaker 1>considered the Trump of the traffics um from his hateful

0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:08.560
<v Speaker 1>rhetoric against women in gays, denial, COVID science, conservative economic

0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:11.839
<v Speaker 1>and social agenda down to reason concern that the right

0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:15.600
<v Speaker 1>wing leader, who is beloved by Brazilian military and police,

0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:18.279
<v Speaker 1>might say decou and try to keep control of the

0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:22.480
<v Speaker 1>government when presumably he gets ousted in the upcoming Brazilian

0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:26.960
<v Speaker 1>presidential election. But how similar are Trump and Bosonaro? Really

0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:29.240
<v Speaker 1>would want to get into the details that is the

0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 1>topic of today's conversation, which we will get into right

0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:44.480
<v Speaker 1>after the joke. Okay, so we are back. So we're

0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:48.240
<v Speaker 1>talking about Bostonaro today, and I mean this is in

0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:50.919
<v Speaker 1>the midst of you know, there's a couple of these

0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:55.159
<v Speaker 1>trump ish sort of figures around the world, pretty much

0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:59.360
<v Speaker 1>dudes who are running their countries like they're fucking organized

0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 1>trimm ires essentially. You know, obviously we all know Putin,

0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:05.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, Homy in the Philippines. What's his name again,

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 1>do Tarte? You've got uh, the guy in Belarus who, yeah, Lucashenko,

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:16.760
<v Speaker 1>they pretty much stage the coup. Who else he got

0:05:16.800 --> 0:05:21.040
<v Speaker 1>air to Juan and the Turkey. Um, I do believe

0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:27.440
<v Speaker 1>Poland has a trump ish figure in any event, You've

0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:29.640
<v Speaker 1>got a rash of these guys over the world, and

0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:33.360
<v Speaker 1>Bosonaro is just another one in that line of cats

0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:35.279
<v Speaker 1>who are doing that thing. Okay, So let's get to

0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:38.200
<v Speaker 1>this question a little more deeply. Who is jar Bosonaro.

0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:41.359
<v Speaker 1>He was elected to the presidency in eighteen as a

0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:45.240
<v Speaker 1>member of Brazil's Social Liberal Party. After several decades as

0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>the Brazilian equivalent of what we might consider a congressman. Now,

0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:51.920
<v Speaker 1>Bosonaro had been a vocal opponent of same sex marriage

0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:57.160
<v Speaker 1>and homosexuality, abortion affirmative action. He's an opponent of drug

0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:02.719
<v Speaker 1>decriminalization and in essence, the it hates fun environment. Yeah,

0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:06.640
<v Speaker 1>he apparently has beef with the environment. I don't know,

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:10.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Yeah, under his leadership, it's overseen a

0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 1>spike and deforestation in Amazon. Last year, I get the ship,

0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:17.400
<v Speaker 1>the Amazon in Brazil lost an area fourteen times the

0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.480
<v Speaker 1>size of New York City ship, which is the greatest

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>decline the forces seen in twelve years. So just hates environment,

0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:32.000
<v Speaker 1>hates gays, hates women, anybody NW drugs, walking talk. Yeah,

0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, I feel like, um, yeah, it's like a

0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:38.640
<v Speaker 1>cartoon villain almost. Yeah, it's like if it's like he's what,

0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:42.320
<v Speaker 1>he's kind of what a lot of motherfucker's in America.

0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Imagine that they're they're living with you know what I'm saying.

0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:47.640
<v Speaker 1>With Trump, I would say he's worse. To be honest,

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.880
<v Speaker 1>it's leg kind of scary. Like he's spoken favorite torture

0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:56.040
<v Speaker 1>and violent revolt against the democratically elected governments. Um. He

0:06:56.080 --> 0:07:00.000
<v Speaker 1>said in interview, elections won't change anything in this country, Well,

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:01.719
<v Speaker 1>only change in the day that we break out in

0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 1>civil war here and do the job of the military

0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:10.400
<v Speaker 1>regime didn't do killing thirty thousand people. If some people die,

0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:14.120
<v Speaker 1>innocent people die, that's fine. Every war, innocent people die.

0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>So there you go. That is the current president of Brazil.

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:23.120
<v Speaker 1>What do you think about that? Well, I mean, like

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:28.120
<v Speaker 1>as someone that like keeps tabs on various like strains

0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.880
<v Speaker 1>of leftist thought, like there are people that are totally

0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:33.240
<v Speaker 1>over like touralism and like, yo, we just gotta like

0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:36.080
<v Speaker 1>have a revolution or something like that. But very rarely

0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:39.000
<v Speaker 1>did you hear or you like, have you find someone

0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:41.880
<v Speaker 1>who asked that's to say that in a scenario like that,

0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>the people rise up and see the government back, like

0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:48.720
<v Speaker 1>thousands of people will die, like hands down and so.

0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:50.800
<v Speaker 1>But like, something that's weird to me about this quote

0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:53.240
<v Speaker 1>is that he seems to relish it like he's like

0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:57.920
<v Speaker 1>stoked that thousands of people like could die in civil

0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:02.160
<v Speaker 1>war in his country. This is where are like the nuance,

0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:04.760
<v Speaker 1>Like my nuance kind of starts to go out of

0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:07.480
<v Speaker 1>the window when it comes to the sur stuff. These

0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:10.920
<v Speaker 1>cats this is like baked into their ship, you know

0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:14.200
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. Like these cats are in a way

0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:19.440
<v Speaker 1>like fantasizing about the worst case scenario where they feel, oh, man,

0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:22.160
<v Speaker 1>now I got the green light to kill lots of people.

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:25.640
<v Speaker 1>So it's like all this like revolution Mary talking ship

0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.679
<v Speaker 1>like that. To me, it's like one side is talking

0:08:28.720 --> 0:08:33.640
<v Speaker 1>about revolution and think pieces and on like YouTube videos,

0:08:33.760 --> 0:08:37.000
<v Speaker 1>and the other side is like literally hiding in the bushes,

0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:40.319
<v Speaker 1>training with guns, imagining the day that they're going to

0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:44.959
<v Speaker 1>get to do some wild ship you know, Oh, we're

0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna transform society and make it an egalitarian like paradise.

0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 1>And then the other side it's like, oh, so words

0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:53.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna break out, Oh we haven't revolutions, Oh I got

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:55.719
<v Speaker 1>to just go gun people down in the streets. And

0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:58.760
<v Speaker 1>they're like superstars about that. I heard about a case

0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:00.640
<v Speaker 1>not too long ago. I mean, and this is kind

0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:03.320
<v Speaker 1>of taking it from Brazil, taking a backstage side, but um,

0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:07.559
<v Speaker 1>just in a nutshell, there were some neighbors who were

0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:11.400
<v Speaker 1>having you know, dispute, and one group of neighbors had

0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:16.640
<v Speaker 1>a Biden sign and the other neighbor was a Trump supporter,

0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:19.040
<v Speaker 1>and he went into the house and gutting them down.

0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:23.000
<v Speaker 1>This happened like maybe like a week or two after

0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:25.240
<v Speaker 1>the election. But I think just now starting to get

0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:27.360
<v Speaker 1>into the trout phase and show like that. But I

0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:31.080
<v Speaker 1>mean that's not like a I don't think that's an

0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:34.160
<v Speaker 1>isolated incident, you know what I'm saying. And I don't

0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:38.360
<v Speaker 1>think it's indicative of like scattered isolated incidents. Like the

0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:42.839
<v Speaker 1>current right wing ideology is one that's like implicitly violent,

0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:45.920
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. So, so what I find

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.400
<v Speaker 1>interesting about like comparing his bedic. Sure, this is an

0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:51.480
<v Speaker 1>old interview almost you know, two decades old, um, but

0:09:51.600 --> 0:09:54.679
<v Speaker 1>comparing him to like Donald Trump, I feel like Donald

0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Trump has like a just like a cavalier sense of

0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.439
<v Speaker 1>just like disregard for human life or it's like, you know,

0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.720
<v Speaker 1>if people die, people die. I don't I can't think

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.080
<v Speaker 1>of an example where he was like, yeah, let's go

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.760
<v Speaker 1>out and murder thousands of people in the streets. That'll

0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:13.640
<v Speaker 1>be lit they. I mean, it's it's come out that

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:17.120
<v Speaker 1>he did want to give like have the army intervened

0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:20.800
<v Speaker 1>during the Black Lives Matter protests, like he he really

0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:22.640
<v Speaker 1>did want them to start shooting people in the street.

0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:25.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know if there's a specific let's skill,

0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:28.679
<v Speaker 1>but I mean Homie and the way I look at

0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:34.439
<v Speaker 1>it is Donald Trump, and by that that part with Republicans,

0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:39.120
<v Speaker 1>they straight up smooth watch six thousand people die smooth,

0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:43.360
<v Speaker 1>like didn't didn't flitch. So I don't think it's I

0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:46.680
<v Speaker 1>don't think it's it's beyond though to to talk like that. Yeah,

0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:48.679
<v Speaker 1>I've been talking about you. But like I guess, like

0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 1>their willingness to say something like that's out in the open,

0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:53.720
<v Speaker 1>because like even if they had discussions about gunning down

0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:57.600
<v Speaker 1>protests rising last summer, probably happening behind closed doors, out

0:10:57.640 --> 0:10:59.679
<v Speaker 1>in public, they want to pretendarly they didn't say like that.

0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.280
<v Speaker 1>So is that like a different level of blood lust,

0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:04.960
<v Speaker 1>is at a different level of political savvy, or like

0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:07.959
<v Speaker 1>maybe Trump and his handlers might know it's probably a

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:10.040
<v Speaker 1>smart thing to say out the public. I don't know.

0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure, but I feel like that is a

0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:14.760
<v Speaker 1>place where these two diverge a little bit in like

0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:22.840
<v Speaker 1>strategy or crazingness. Conditions are also important factor and differentiating

0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:27.440
<v Speaker 1>the two is that Trump has a lot of potential

0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:30.839
<v Speaker 1>to do what Balsonaro has been able to do, you

0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:34.440
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, Like, like like Brazil has been

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:36.960
<v Speaker 1>a fashion Brazil was fascist in the eighties. Already you

0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:39.240
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. So it's like what he's trying

0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:42.600
<v Speaker 1>to make it be. They've been that before, so that

0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:45.040
<v Speaker 1>door is kind of open there to begin with. And

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:48.439
<v Speaker 1>then just he has more enablers, you know, the the institutions,

0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:52.280
<v Speaker 1>not not every country has the institutions that are sturdy enough,

0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:55.439
<v Speaker 1>as America has proved to be the last four years,

0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:57.839
<v Speaker 1>and ship like that. So when you have somebody who's

0:11:57.840 --> 0:11:59.960
<v Speaker 1>poking and prodding if the ship is not sturdy enough,

0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:03.319
<v Speaker 1>he's more successful of doing things like changing laws and

0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:06.120
<v Speaker 1>changing constitutions and doing those things to keep himself in power.

0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:09.000
<v Speaker 1>So he's just he's enabled a lot more than Trump

0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:11.960
<v Speaker 1>is too. Yeah, we've talked about a bunch of people

0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:17.200
<v Speaker 1>like math death, speaking of which UM Brazil has very

0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:21.760
<v Speaker 1>consistently ranked second in the world for um COVID nineteen deaths.

0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:25.360
<v Speaker 1>UM Over the question of pandemic another thing that the

0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:29.840
<v Speaker 1>leadership of our presidents have held in common. UM Bolsonaro

0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:33.160
<v Speaker 1>from the start has the little the pandemic and earlier

0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 1>this year had several videos removed from YouTube for spreading

0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:40.080
<v Speaker 1>misinformation about the coronavirus, which had parallels in a certain

0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:43.160
<v Speaker 1>sense to UM. You know, Trump getting flagged on Twitter

0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:46.240
<v Speaker 1>for like talking shit about like detoxy clorican or never

0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:51.079
<v Speaker 1>that a reel um. In July, one day after announcing

0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:54.720
<v Speaker 1>that he attests pop positive for nineteen, Boston came wonder

0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:58.240
<v Speaker 1>fire for allegedly using homophobic language to mock the use

0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 1>of face masks, namely saying that masks were for fairies. Okay, anyway.

0:13:05.080 --> 0:13:07.440
<v Speaker 1>He later posted a tweet including a picture in which

0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:09.800
<v Speaker 1>he appears to be smiling and giving it thumbs up

0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:14.920
<v Speaker 1>while brandishing a box of hydroxy chloroquine fills. So, like, Okay,

0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:16.960
<v Speaker 1>I am just very I'm like because I know I

0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:18.960
<v Speaker 1>know someone left wing people who are like very anti

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:22.800
<v Speaker 1>authoritarian and are skeptical of like vaccines and the science

0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:25.760
<v Speaker 1>behind coronavirus stuff like that. But it's so interesting to

0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:29.280
<v Speaker 1>me that like there's these parallels were like in addition

0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:32.800
<v Speaker 1>to being you know, like, I just don't understand why

0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:36.200
<v Speaker 1>this seems like a cross cultural occurrence that rightlying thankers

0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:40.200
<v Speaker 1>tend to believe coronavirus misinformation, Like why is that? I

0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:42.840
<v Speaker 1>don't get it currently, I think it's part of their

0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:48.520
<v Speaker 1>like contrarian streak, where you know, anything that the left

0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:51.200
<v Speaker 1>of the country is for it. Then they're automatically opposed

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:52.800
<v Speaker 1>to it, you know what I mean, That's what it is.

0:13:52.840 --> 0:13:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Like the left cups out like, oh, we believe in science,

0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:57.520
<v Speaker 1>and theff's like, yo, we don't have I honestly think

0:13:57.640 --> 0:13:59.920
<v Speaker 1>that's really what it is. I mean, and it's it's

0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:03.160
<v Speaker 1>played out that way to win. The vaccine was first

0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:08.719
<v Speaker 1>being developed in Democrats or whoever were like rightfully so

0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:11.520
<v Speaker 1>in my opinion, were like, hey, I trust science, I

0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:15.360
<v Speaker 1>trust the doctors. I don't trust Trump. So I don't

0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:18.319
<v Speaker 1>know about the vaccine. It was completely switched, you know

0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:19.920
<v Speaker 1>what I mean, Like people were like, man, I don't

0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:23.320
<v Speaker 1>know if I want to take some VAGA vaccine and

0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:28.640
<v Speaker 1>and MAGA were in on vaccines. I mean thisaccine talking

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:31.520
<v Speaker 1>about you know, like so proud that this is recently

0:14:31.720 --> 0:14:35.160
<v Speaker 1>is like last you know what I mean, like last

0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:38.320
<v Speaker 1>March that this is going on, Like this isn't this

0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:40.920
<v Speaker 1>wasn't like ancient history anything. So I really think that

0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:44.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of it is rooted in that contrarian stry,

0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:47.520
<v Speaker 1>just as far as far as like right leading people

0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:50.040
<v Speaker 1>are concerned, where it's like hey man, I don't trust

0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden and I don't trust these crazy liberals and

0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:56.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, they're all for the vaccine and PC woke,

0:14:56.680 --> 0:14:58.640
<v Speaker 1>Like I think it's all wrapped up into that ship.

0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:02.200
<v Speaker 1>I I pondered whether as a couple of other things

0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:04.400
<v Speaker 1>as well, And it's probably a mixture of all of this,

0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:08.760
<v Speaker 1>you know together. Um. On the one hand, there's just like, yeah,

0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:11.880
<v Speaker 1>this libertarian streak of just like I don't really care.

0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:14.840
<v Speaker 1>I can do whatever I want. Um, So like you know,

0:15:15.120 --> 0:15:16.840
<v Speaker 1>like I don't care about the science, I don't care

0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:18.400
<v Speaker 1>about any of this stuff because I just want to

0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.760
<v Speaker 1>be free, Like you know, the government shouldn't you know,

0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:23.680
<v Speaker 1>you know that don't tread on me bullshit. Like a

0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:26.640
<v Speaker 1>little bit of that was mixed with this like, oh,

0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:29.480
<v Speaker 1>the economy is more important than anything like oh, like

0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:33.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, business and you know, the stock market, like

0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:35.240
<v Speaker 1>we gotta keep the numbers going up on the ticker,

0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:37.200
<v Speaker 1>even though no one knows what that is, at least

0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:39.720
<v Speaker 1>from a governmental perspective. I feel like that's driven a

0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:41.880
<v Speaker 1>lot of Trump's people, you know, like trying to protect

0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:45.240
<v Speaker 1>his corporate you know, homies by like making sure the

0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:48.480
<v Speaker 1>economy marches forward. I imagine, and you know, and and

0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:51.840
<v Speaker 1>and um. Boltono has made similar comments I think even

0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:54.960
<v Speaker 1>at the u N summit last week talking about how, oh,

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:58.720
<v Speaker 1>COVID restrictions cripple economy is like this focus on oh,

0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:01.680
<v Speaker 1>the economy is more important than human life as well.

0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:04.480
<v Speaker 1>So all that together, I guess it just for me,

0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:07.440
<v Speaker 1>you know that that's what it's like. That's what like

0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:12.120
<v Speaker 1>right wing politicians motivations are. But it's like it's more

0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:15.840
<v Speaker 1>interesting like the people that are like on the ground,

0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:18.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, I mean, like the regular people in terms

0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 1>of like what they're motivation is. Yeah, I mean, as

0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:26.720
<v Speaker 1>a commissioner, like as even compost COVID restrictions here to help,

0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:28.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know, in the interests of public health.

0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:32.600
<v Speaker 1>We've got an emails from like business owners that are like, oh,

0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:34.680
<v Speaker 1>you're killing me, like I don't know what I'm supposed

0:16:34.680 --> 0:16:37.600
<v Speaker 1>to do, dada da da, or just concerned people just

0:16:37.680 --> 0:16:40.080
<v Speaker 1>like you know, just constituents who have no stake, who

0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:44.480
<v Speaker 1>are totally fine middle class like you know, pension, uh,

0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:47.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, paid off the mortgage already, who are like, oh,

0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:51.040
<v Speaker 1>like you know, oh, the unemployment is encouraging people not

0:16:51.120 --> 0:16:54.240
<v Speaker 1>to go to work, and then know, the crippling the

0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:58.320
<v Speaker 1>economy because even even the average there's like average citizens

0:16:58.600 --> 0:17:01.280
<v Speaker 1>who don't have any person an ottle interest in like

0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:06.040
<v Speaker 1>the stock market or like, you know, the economy at large,

0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:08.400
<v Speaker 1>but like have his ideology of like, oh, the economy

0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:11.439
<v Speaker 1>is important, the economy matters. They absorbedist rhetoric and they

0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:14.119
<v Speaker 1>spew it back out even though it's like, yo, I

0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:16.240
<v Speaker 1>don't want you, like Homie who's writing to me this

0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:18.880
<v Speaker 1>email about like, oh the mass mandate, I don't want

0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:20.639
<v Speaker 1>you to die either. I don't think you want to

0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:22.119
<v Speaker 1>die either. I don't think you want to die for

0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:26.399
<v Speaker 1>the economy. Honestly, there's something cultural in it, I feel,

0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:29.480
<v Speaker 1>because I mean, like like a fucking World War two

0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:33.240
<v Speaker 1>and ship they rationed meat, you know what I'm saying.

0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:36.679
<v Speaker 1>They were like like motherfucker, they ration steel, like you

0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:40.199
<v Speaker 1>couldn't drive as long as you wanted to or as

0:17:40.280 --> 0:17:42.000
<v Speaker 1>far as you want to because they were ration and

0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:47.000
<v Speaker 1>gas and ship Like, I just don't see people making

0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:51.879
<v Speaker 1>that personal sacrifice after this COVID ship because it just

0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:55.399
<v Speaker 1>seems like everybody is like not everybody, but I just

0:17:55.440 --> 0:18:00.600
<v Speaker 1>mean there's a there's a huge component of the vaccine

0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:05.880
<v Speaker 1>denial that is rooted in well, I'm straight, I'm gonna

0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:08.520
<v Speaker 1>be fine, all right. Yeah, that's like a new precedent

0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:12.480
<v Speaker 1>for not as individualism but anti collectivism. Yeah, people who

0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:16.040
<v Speaker 1>are specifically opposed to like working together to like for

0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:19.240
<v Speaker 1>the benefit of public health and public and now something

0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:23.520
<v Speaker 1>seen somebody who has that mindset and that agenda, right,

0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:28.040
<v Speaker 1>you very easily can rope left leaning people into that,

0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:31.320
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. I think because I mean

0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:34.919
<v Speaker 1>if you don't even if it's not even um presented

0:18:35.000 --> 0:18:38.639
<v Speaker 1>that way, and you're just more so presenting these ideas

0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:41.800
<v Speaker 1>that you know, like you said, are kind of adjacent

0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:45.720
<v Speaker 1>to the to the grand scheme of collective organizing and

0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:48.680
<v Speaker 1>community and stuff like that. If you start chipping away

0:18:48.720 --> 0:18:51.760
<v Speaker 1>at that sort of thing, then you have people who

0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:56.399
<v Speaker 1>otherwise would be cool fucking retweeting Tucker Carlson and ship.

0:18:57.640 --> 0:18:59.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's like, oh, I agree with them in

0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:04.240
<v Speaker 1>the back look at Juken Greenwald. That's the topic for

0:19:04.280 --> 0:19:08.520
<v Speaker 1>another day anyway, Thank even what are you doing? Oh,

0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:10.760
<v Speaker 1>we gotta do a whole episode? All we do? We do?

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:13.840
<v Speaker 1>We do? We do. Like somebody somebody checked her on

0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:16.159
<v Speaker 1>like yo, you know, he's a white nationalist, and she

0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:18.560
<v Speaker 1>just like went off on the defense of it. I'm like,

0:19:19.840 --> 0:19:22.760
<v Speaker 1>and people were like, oh, go off, Like what do

0:19:22.840 --> 0:19:29.359
<v Speaker 1>you know do not? Oh man, let's let's get back. Yeah.

0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:32.800
<v Speaker 1>So public opinion of Bolsonara, which hap been favorable during

0:19:32.800 --> 0:19:36.000
<v Speaker 1>his first year in office, turned negative throughout most between

0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:39.280
<v Speaker 1>twenty you know, with his cutat of handling of the

0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:44.440
<v Speaker 1>coroneris pandemic. Everything briefly became positive again after we authorized

0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:48.840
<v Speaker 1>emergency payments again to our studentist checks here, before turning

0:19:48.880 --> 0:19:52.720
<v Speaker 1>negative once more. So you know, yeah, the Brazilian economy

0:19:52.720 --> 0:19:57.560
<v Speaker 1>and the Tank five like was a five thousand dead

0:19:57.560 --> 0:20:00.359
<v Speaker 1>and almost the best people dead in Brazil. And they

0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:03.080
<v Speaker 1>have a population of two hundred and eleven millions, so

0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:06.040
<v Speaker 1>they've got like, damn near a hundred million less people

0:20:06.080 --> 0:20:07.840
<v Speaker 1>than us but have the same amount of people. Oh

0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:13.119
<v Speaker 1>damn that has actually yeah, yeah, a lot of the

0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:17.000
<v Speaker 1>country's political and economically have just turned against him. I mean,

0:20:17.080 --> 0:20:20.359
<v Speaker 1>and like even for every average, everyday people, the public

0:20:20.400 --> 0:20:24.000
<v Speaker 1>living standards getting squeeze because food and fuel costs are

0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:29.240
<v Speaker 1>taken upwards amid high unemployment. So this uh, you know recipe,

0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:32.640
<v Speaker 1>all these ingredients come together to give you shitty poll

0:20:32.720 --> 0:20:36.280
<v Speaker 1>numbers for our avoid Boltonaro. Um, it's looking like voters

0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:38.959
<v Speaker 1>are likely to pick left wing former president Little Da

0:20:38.960 --> 0:20:42.439
<v Speaker 1>Silva over Boltonaro in the coming election if posters are correct.

0:20:43.200 --> 0:20:46.399
<v Speaker 1>But there's definitely signs that Balstonaro is not gonna go

0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:50.080
<v Speaker 1>without a fight. So earlier this month, Bosonaro called his

0:20:50.119 --> 0:20:53.159
<v Speaker 1>supporters to the streets in preparation for what he called

0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:58.359
<v Speaker 1>a necessary counter coup against Congress and the Brazilian Supreme Court.

0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:02.400
<v Speaker 1>He directed a huge militia. He directed a huge military

0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:05.960
<v Speaker 1>parade through the capital of Brazilia, in part to flex

0:21:06.080 --> 0:21:09.399
<v Speaker 1>his his close ties with the military leaders, many of

0:21:09.440 --> 0:21:13.840
<v Speaker 1>whom he appointed the cabinet post following his election. Balstonaro

0:21:13.960 --> 0:21:16.760
<v Speaker 1>also enjoys a high level of support among the nation's

0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:20.480
<v Speaker 1>police force. Sounds like Trump as well, leading some to

0:21:20.560 --> 0:21:23.639
<v Speaker 1>wonder if, in any event, if in the event of

0:21:23.640 --> 0:21:27.200
<v Speaker 1>an attentive coup, the military and cops might turn against

0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:30.080
<v Speaker 1>the public to keep the president in power. I mean,

0:21:30.480 --> 0:21:33.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know if that's the question. I think

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:36.040
<v Speaker 1>that what was going to happen. I think that I

0:21:36.040 --> 0:21:38.159
<v Speaker 1>think we're lucky that ship didn't happen here, to be

0:21:38.200 --> 0:21:40.399
<v Speaker 1>honest with you, So yeah, yeah, and we'll get to

0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:43.640
<v Speaker 1>that a little bit. The second Um some some analysis

0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:45.879
<v Speaker 1>of January six to sort of put it in in

0:21:46.560 --> 0:21:49.840
<v Speaker 1>contrast to what happened earlier this month in Brazil, but

0:21:50.200 --> 0:21:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Bostonaro's out here he was making direct threats to this

0:21:53.720 --> 0:21:58.440
<v Speaker 1>Freme Court Chief Justice Luis foos Um even said that

0:21:58.520 --> 0:22:02.840
<v Speaker 1>the only options for himself bothora were to be arrested,

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:05.439
<v Speaker 1>killed or to win in the elections. And given that

0:22:05.480 --> 0:22:08.399
<v Speaker 1>winning seems unlikely at parting of recent polls and the

0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:10.040
<v Speaker 1>fact he went on to say that he would never

0:22:10.119 --> 0:22:12.800
<v Speaker 1>be arrested, is its inuating that he will only leave

0:22:12.840 --> 0:22:17.600
<v Speaker 1>office if killed. He's undermined the public's faith and security

0:22:17.600 --> 0:22:21.000
<v Speaker 1>of the upcoming elections, saying no person is going to

0:22:21.080 --> 0:22:24.919
<v Speaker 1>tell us this voting process is safe and reliable because

0:22:24.960 --> 0:22:29.440
<v Speaker 1>it isn't. So. I mean, all of this probably soundscari ship,

0:22:29.480 --> 0:22:32.199
<v Speaker 1>but the good news is that these pro bolson Are

0:22:32.359 --> 0:22:34.880
<v Speaker 1>protests across Brazil turned out to be a lot smaller

0:22:34.920 --> 0:22:38.680
<v Speaker 1>than supporters anticipated. According the local police, only about a

0:22:38.760 --> 0:22:42.240
<v Speaker 1>hundred twenty five thousand people took part in its Outpollo demonstrations.

0:22:42.520 --> 0:22:45.520
<v Speaker 1>Like that's still a lot, but they expected about two million.

0:22:46.520 --> 0:22:49.040
<v Speaker 1>There are other smaller demonstrations across the country, but no

0:22:49.160 --> 0:22:51.560
<v Speaker 1>violence broke out. So it's kind of what happened with

0:22:51.640 --> 0:22:54.400
<v Speaker 1>the part two of the January six thing that they

0:22:54.400 --> 0:22:58.240
<v Speaker 1>tried to do last week. And so in the early

0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:01.520
<v Speaker 1>lead up to the lead up to early September demonstrations,

0:23:01.560 --> 0:23:05.560
<v Speaker 1>international media was just discussing the event as a potential

0:23:05.600 --> 0:23:10.879
<v Speaker 1>repeat of January six. UM. But according to alex O Trulli,

0:23:10.920 --> 0:23:13.000
<v Speaker 1>who actually interestedly coming on the show next week to

0:23:13.840 --> 0:23:17.119
<v Speaker 1>discuss this a little more detail, UM, looking at the

0:23:17.119 --> 0:23:20.080
<v Speaker 1>two events side by side, UM, he said that event

0:23:20.240 --> 0:23:23.560
<v Speaker 1>January six was never a real threat to democracy. Um.

0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:27.080
<v Speaker 1>The United States in Baltionary could be. The FBI found

0:23:27.080 --> 0:23:31.120
<v Speaker 1>no evidence of essentially planned plot on January six, UM,

0:23:31.160 --> 0:23:33.040
<v Speaker 1>and there are no plans to charge those involved with

0:23:33.040 --> 0:23:36.200
<v Speaker 1>seditious conspiracy. Trump has didn't kill anyone. The only a

0:23:36.240 --> 0:23:39.880
<v Speaker 1>violent death as a policeman shooting a pro Trump you know, protester.

0:23:40.760 --> 0:23:43.800
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't a coupe nor even really a respectable coup attempt,

0:23:43.840 --> 0:23:45.840
<v Speaker 1>even as even as scary as it was to ask

0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:49.720
<v Speaker 1>in the moment on that day. Um. Instead, you know,

0:23:49.840 --> 0:23:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the whole administration came together for the most part to

0:23:53.840 --> 0:23:56.240
<v Speaker 1>uphold the election results, and there wasn't a risk of

0:23:56.240 --> 0:23:59.440
<v Speaker 1>a military coup because Trump didn't have the same backing

0:23:59.480 --> 0:24:02.960
<v Speaker 1>of the middle terry in in the United States as

0:24:03.400 --> 0:24:06.199
<v Speaker 1>Boson and choice in for Zil. In Brazil, situation is

0:24:06.200 --> 0:24:11.080
<v Speaker 1>far more precarious since Boson arts office, six thousand military

0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:14.600
<v Speaker 1>personnel have come to occupy positions in the federal government,

0:24:15.040 --> 0:24:19.240
<v Speaker 1>with top Brass strongly representing the presidential cabinet. The risk

0:24:19.240 --> 0:24:22.359
<v Speaker 1>of Altane Police Forces ninety to launch a coup with

0:24:22.640 --> 0:24:26.800
<v Speaker 1>or in place of Balsonaro, it's worth seriously pondering, especially

0:24:27.359 --> 0:24:30.480
<v Speaker 1>since a military cool in Brazil, it's a president. Then

0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:36.800
<v Speaker 1>members of the Brazilian armed forces, supported by the United

0:24:36.800 --> 0:24:39.840
<v Speaker 1>States government, once again talking with people in Latin America,

0:24:40.480 --> 0:24:46.480
<v Speaker 1>overthrew President Joe klar Um. The coupe brought uh to Brazil,

0:24:46.880 --> 0:24:50.520
<v Speaker 1>a military dictatorship politically aligned with the interests of guess

0:24:50.520 --> 0:24:53.879
<v Speaker 1>who's the United States government, and which lasted for twenty

0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:56.399
<v Speaker 1>one years until nineteen five. So this is something so

0:24:56.520 --> 0:25:00.720
<v Speaker 1>like the government has overthrowned democratically elected presidents and till previously,

0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:03.800
<v Speaker 1>in addition to you know, all over Latin America, and

0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:05.639
<v Speaker 1>so there's it's a little more so I think I

0:25:05.680 --> 0:25:08.440
<v Speaker 1>see such a little more serious in here, because like, yeah,

0:25:08.480 --> 0:25:10.400
<v Speaker 1>this ship, like it's easy to imagine because this ship

0:25:10.400 --> 0:25:13.320
<v Speaker 1>has happened before the This is the thing that I

0:25:13.520 --> 0:25:16.679
<v Speaker 1>disagree with him on and you know, hopefully we can

0:25:16.720 --> 0:25:18.600
<v Speaker 1>talk about this when he comes in the show. Is

0:25:19.480 --> 0:25:23.119
<v Speaker 1>the notion that, okay, that specific event in its in

0:25:23.200 --> 0:25:25.880
<v Speaker 1>and of itself was a threat to democracy and that

0:25:25.880 --> 0:25:28.720
<v Speaker 1>that was the coup attempt to you know what I mean,

0:25:28.920 --> 0:25:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Like like, oh man, we were on the verge of

0:25:30.880 --> 0:25:37.680
<v Speaker 1>that day. Anyone who's saying that that's like hyperbole, it's exaggeration,

0:25:38.080 --> 0:25:41.960
<v Speaker 1>It's it's television. It's like you know, like cable news,

0:25:42.080 --> 0:25:45.280
<v Speaker 1>enter table television at this point, like it's it's too

0:25:45.400 --> 0:25:48.600
<v Speaker 1>gin up the ship. But in a way for like

0:25:48.920 --> 0:25:51.280
<v Speaker 1>from somebody like me, you know, I mean, it kind

0:25:51.320 --> 0:25:53.800
<v Speaker 1>of it feels like a straw man because it's not

0:25:54.320 --> 0:25:57.800
<v Speaker 1>that's not the issue. It's what it's indicative of, Like

0:25:58.440 --> 0:26:01.879
<v Speaker 1>it might not be the coup attempt that put us

0:26:01.880 --> 0:26:04.440
<v Speaker 1>on the verge, but it was damn sure a test run,

0:26:04.960 --> 0:26:08.280
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. And it's the next time

0:26:08.280 --> 0:26:12.800
<v Speaker 1>that it happens. I think that time possibly could be

0:26:12.840 --> 0:26:14.960
<v Speaker 1>the one that's like, oh, Man, we're on the verge

0:26:15.000 --> 0:26:18.520
<v Speaker 1>with this one. I mean, consider this, right, do you

0:26:18.520 --> 0:26:22.720
<v Speaker 1>remember when everybody was talking about let's storm area You

0:26:22.720 --> 0:26:24.960
<v Speaker 1>remember when that was going on, and like it never

0:26:25.000 --> 0:26:29.280
<v Speaker 1>really like materialized. Who knows why it never really materialized,

0:26:29.400 --> 0:26:31.879
<v Speaker 1>but I would guess that one of the things in

0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:35.920
<v Speaker 1>the back of everybody's head is, Man, when you're at

0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the point that there's a mass group of people that

0:26:38.040 --> 0:26:40.880
<v Speaker 1>are storming Area fifty one, they're just gonna start shooting.

0:26:43.520 --> 0:26:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I not knowing everything about you know, like I don't

0:26:47.680 --> 0:26:49.399
<v Speaker 1>know the ins and outs of all this stuff and

0:26:49.400 --> 0:26:53.320
<v Speaker 1>how it works. But just me growing up, you know, American,

0:26:53.359 --> 0:26:56.440
<v Speaker 1>but growing up overseas, and just like the pop cultural

0:26:56.480 --> 0:26:59.119
<v Speaker 1>idea of how what I have of how the government works.

0:26:59.400 --> 0:27:03.800
<v Speaker 1>A bunch of people start storming the Capitol buildings, whether

0:27:03.840 --> 0:27:07.119
<v Speaker 1>it's Black Lives matter, whether it's right wingers or whatever.

0:27:07.160 --> 0:27:09.879
<v Speaker 1>If a bunch of people start storming the center of

0:27:09.920 --> 0:27:12.800
<v Speaker 1>American power, I would imagine that the cops would just

0:27:12.800 --> 0:27:15.840
<v Speaker 1>start letting bullets black. Well, that's the thing. So that's

0:27:15.840 --> 0:27:17.680
<v Speaker 1>the thing about the situation that I think it's interesting

0:27:18.200 --> 0:27:20.560
<v Speaker 1>and kind of scary, is that sure? Like, Okay, the

0:27:20.600 --> 0:27:23.960
<v Speaker 1>demonstrations polter I was like arobably come out of the streets. Yeah,

0:27:24.080 --> 0:27:26.760
<v Speaker 1>and they had lost people that anticipated. But if a

0:27:26.800 --> 0:27:29.760
<v Speaker 1>hundred people twenty five thousand people in South a Polo

0:27:29.880 --> 0:27:33.679
<v Speaker 1>all had guns store and you know, started storming capitol

0:27:33.680 --> 0:27:35.960
<v Speaker 1>buildings and the police, even if the police din't joined

0:27:36.000 --> 0:27:38.320
<v Speaker 1>their side, if the police stood by and did nothing,

0:27:38.359 --> 0:27:39.560
<v Speaker 1>which is a little bit of what we saw in

0:27:39.640 --> 0:27:44.639
<v Speaker 1>January six, police were like you know taking selfies. Um,

0:27:44.720 --> 0:27:46.200
<v Speaker 1>if they just like you know, kind of turn a

0:27:46.280 --> 0:27:49.040
<v Speaker 1>blind eye so well, that guys could do some serious damage.

0:27:49.640 --> 0:27:51.160
<v Speaker 1>It might not be as many people as you thought,

0:27:51.200 --> 0:27:53.280
<v Speaker 1>but it's enough to fund some shut up countries can

0:27:53.320 --> 0:27:57.840
<v Speaker 1>get de stabilized with like five thousand organisms people. Yeah,

0:27:58.200 --> 0:28:01.040
<v Speaker 1>like let a load a hundred and something. If all

0:28:01.119 --> 0:28:03.600
<v Speaker 1>six thousand people who are in the military who have

0:28:03.640 --> 0:28:07.280
<v Speaker 1>been appointed the government by Boltonaro like you know, just

0:28:07.320 --> 0:28:10.200
<v Speaker 1>did little things like gave somebody their key card to

0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:12.159
<v Speaker 1>give me the elevator to go up to where the

0:28:12.200 --> 0:28:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Supreme Court Justice, you know, his office is, and like

0:28:15.160 --> 0:28:18.560
<v Speaker 1>little things like that, that could be enough rock the

0:28:18.560 --> 0:28:21.760
<v Speaker 1>whole ship. The thing that talking about Bostonaro makes me

0:28:21.840 --> 0:28:23.440
<v Speaker 1>think of it's like it just makes me think of

0:28:23.480 --> 0:28:25.760
<v Speaker 1>the whole concept of you know, it could happen here

0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:28.120
<v Speaker 1>type of type of ship where it's just like if

0:28:28.160 --> 0:28:33.680
<v Speaker 1>this starts happening stuff like the starts happening tomorrow. It's

0:28:33.720 --> 0:28:36.720
<v Speaker 1>just like, what are people really going to do? What

0:28:36.880 --> 0:28:39.120
<v Speaker 1>is the real actual reaction going to be? Like if

0:28:39.120 --> 0:28:42.640
<v Speaker 1>in your town, some Yahoo's just take over the state

0:28:42.680 --> 0:28:46.440
<v Speaker 1>building and the cops don't touch him straight up and

0:28:46.480 --> 0:28:48.600
<v Speaker 1>their life we're in charge. I mean, most people are

0:28:48.600 --> 0:28:50.560
<v Speaker 1>going to tweet about it, you know what I mean.

0:28:50.560 --> 0:28:53.480
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna make your post like it's sun up and

0:28:53.520 --> 0:28:55.560
<v Speaker 1>then everybody's gonna go to work. This is what That's

0:28:55.600 --> 0:28:57.320
<v Speaker 1>what I'm afraid of, you know what I mean. Like,

0:28:57.400 --> 0:29:00.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm busy right now. So yeah, January s X two

0:29:00.360 --> 0:29:02.720
<v Speaker 1>thousand twenty one, like that was the day I was

0:29:02.920 --> 0:29:06.360
<v Speaker 1>to be sworn in as Commissioner again. And so I'm

0:29:06.360 --> 0:29:10.240
<v Speaker 1>sitting scenes of the Cavil getting stormed on CNN. I'm like, yo,

0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:13.000
<v Speaker 1>is it safe to be like around government buildings right now?

0:29:13.720 --> 0:29:16.200
<v Speaker 1>And my colleagues were like, oh, come on, it's fine,

0:29:16.720 --> 0:29:19.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, because they've never had like lynching threats or

0:29:19.200 --> 0:29:20.920
<v Speaker 1>like someone starting to bring their house out or anything.

0:29:21.280 --> 0:29:23.400
<v Speaker 1>And so they're like, you know, the police will be there,

0:29:24.000 --> 0:29:26.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, they'll be stationed on the rooftops. I'm like,

0:29:26.920 --> 0:29:28.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't like the idea of them being stationed on

0:29:28.840 --> 0:29:33.160
<v Speaker 1>the rooftops with like, you know, sniper's scope like pointed

0:29:33.200 --> 0:29:37.040
<v Speaker 1>at the city Hall building. Neither neither may feel any better.

0:29:37.360 --> 0:29:39.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, you just reminded me of It's something that

0:29:39.960 --> 0:29:43.320
<v Speaker 1>I talked about literally on the first episode that you

0:29:43.360 --> 0:29:47.280
<v Speaker 1>weren't around. Yeah, but you know who was going in

0:29:47.280 --> 0:29:51.440
<v Speaker 1>and out of Brazil having meetings with Balsinara, right, Bannon,

0:29:52.240 --> 0:29:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, and the CIA recently, like recently as

0:29:57.960 --> 0:30:00.400
<v Speaker 1>a matter of fact, like Steve, it's suspected the Steve

0:30:00.400 --> 0:30:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Bannon and them are like behind trying to organize this

0:30:02.880 --> 0:30:05.200
<v Speaker 1>whole everybody get out in the streets for Bosonaro thing.

0:30:05.400 --> 0:30:10.240
<v Speaker 1>They were literally trying to recreate the January sixth thing

0:30:10.320 --> 0:30:13.800
<v Speaker 1>down there. So there're a lot of trouble you. We're

0:30:13.840 --> 0:30:15.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot of trouble you. I mean, I guess it's

0:30:15.080 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 1>the consensus is Bossonaro is probably worse than Trump. But

0:30:20.600 --> 0:30:23.200
<v Speaker 1>not only is it not by a lot, but it's

0:30:23.520 --> 0:30:27.400
<v Speaker 1>purely a matter of circumstance. Yeah, you know, what I'm saying. Yeah,

0:30:27.800 --> 0:30:30.640
<v Speaker 1>some in some ways worse. Actually, I think, honestly think

0:30:30.640 --> 0:30:32.840
<v Speaker 1>in every way worse. This dude seems like really like

0:30:32.920 --> 0:30:35.240
<v Speaker 1>a lot worse to call him the really Trump is

0:30:35.280 --> 0:30:38.720
<v Speaker 1>the Balsonaro of of the North of North America. Another

0:30:38.800 --> 0:30:42.640
<v Speaker 1>key differences. I feel like Balsonaro believes in something. And

0:30:42.640 --> 0:30:44.440
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna you're gonna kind of get a sense of

0:30:44.440 --> 0:30:47.840
<v Speaker 1>this when we get the music discussion. Yeah, Trump is

0:30:47.880 --> 0:30:50.360
<v Speaker 1>like a money in power dude. Like it's like like

0:30:50.440 --> 0:30:54.800
<v Speaker 1>literally like Trump could be a rapper. Like that's just considered.

0:30:54.920 --> 0:30:56.640
<v Speaker 1>What do you in power? That's it. So let's turn

0:30:56.720 --> 0:30:59.040
<v Speaker 1>to talk a little bit about the rappers in the

0:30:59.080 --> 0:31:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Brazilian rappers that fun with Bosnarrow and we got a

0:31:02.680 --> 0:31:05.200
<v Speaker 1>couple of the don't but we'll be we'll be back

0:31:05.240 --> 0:31:16.200
<v Speaker 1>with that after the joke. Alright, we are crazy. I'm sorry.

0:31:16.240 --> 0:31:19.320
<v Speaker 1>I didn't want to cut you off. I'm so stoked

0:31:19.320 --> 0:31:22.040
<v Speaker 1>for this discussion today because this is just wild to me,

0:31:22.280 --> 0:31:25.400
<v Speaker 1>some of some of these some of these rappers. Man, Now,

0:31:25.480 --> 0:31:28.360
<v Speaker 1>we are a politics hip hop show, so you know,

0:31:28.440 --> 0:31:30.360
<v Speaker 1>we always got to bring it back to the hip

0:31:30.440 --> 0:31:32.920
<v Speaker 1>hop angle of things, and to do that we're gonna

0:31:32.960 --> 0:31:35.920
<v Speaker 1>be diving into some of the hip hop that's going

0:31:36.040 --> 0:31:39.880
<v Speaker 1>on in Brazil currently amidst all of this Balsnaro right

0:31:39.920 --> 0:31:43.200
<v Speaker 1>wing coup fears and blah blah blah blah. Now, where

0:31:43.240 --> 0:31:45.120
<v Speaker 1>this is going to kind of take a turn is

0:31:46.960 --> 0:31:51.440
<v Speaker 1>there is a whole lot of self described right wing

0:31:51.600 --> 0:31:56.160
<v Speaker 1>rappers in Brazil. It's not dominating the scene, it's not

0:31:56.240 --> 0:31:59.080
<v Speaker 1>in the majority thing. It's not like what Brazilian hip

0:31:59.120 --> 0:32:02.400
<v Speaker 1>hop is like, but it's enough of a niche market

0:32:02.600 --> 0:32:06.760
<v Speaker 1>that Balsonaro has found use in it as propaganda. Yeah,

0:32:06.760 --> 0:32:10.080
<v Speaker 1>they got recordings that sample features that feature samples from

0:32:10.080 --> 0:32:14.880
<v Speaker 1>the president's speeches, lyrics that exalt the dictatorship and torturers

0:32:14.960 --> 0:32:19.920
<v Speaker 1>like Carlos at Ustra and shout outs to people that

0:32:20.400 --> 0:32:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the dude that sort of like was bolsonar Guru l Carvoglio.

0:32:26.280 --> 0:32:29.200
<v Speaker 1>So like they like so they like really incorporate, like

0:32:29.240 --> 0:32:32.440
<v Speaker 1>they get into very specific details about why they support

0:32:34.320 --> 0:32:37.400
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, yeah, and like historical figures of the right

0:32:37.440 --> 0:32:39.600
<v Speaker 1>wing and Birnt Hill as well. So let's check out

0:32:39.600 --> 0:32:44.840
<v Speaker 1>this first cat. How do you say this, louise Um

0:32:45.160 --> 0:32:47.720
<v Speaker 1>is The song is called my Son Will be a Boston,

0:32:48.080 --> 0:32:51.920
<v Speaker 1>Boston Arrista in a Boston Balsa arista. I'm assuming it

0:32:52.000 --> 0:32:56.000
<v Speaker 1>is kind of like a name for a Balsonaro supporter, Like, yeah,

0:32:56.400 --> 0:33:06.440
<v Speaker 1>all right, let's check this out. Stuff, Like the hook goes. Um,

0:33:06.520 --> 0:33:08.480
<v Speaker 1>when my son will is born, he will follow his

0:33:08.520 --> 0:33:14.520
<v Speaker 1>father's footsteps. Um, his first birds will be Petismo, which

0:33:14.560 --> 0:33:17.520
<v Speaker 1>is like PET is like the Workers Party, which is

0:33:17.520 --> 0:33:20.080
<v Speaker 1>like the left wing in Brazil. So pet will be

0:33:20.120 --> 0:33:22.240
<v Speaker 1>no more. And then in the opening lines of the

0:33:22.240 --> 0:33:25.720
<v Speaker 1>first verse, that's just crazy to me, Uh, my son

0:33:25.800 --> 0:33:28.440
<v Speaker 1>will be right wing, a many anti communist. He's gonna

0:33:28.520 --> 0:33:31.160
<v Speaker 1>learn when he's young to be a capitalist. Will dress

0:33:31.240 --> 0:33:35.000
<v Speaker 1>up by Ustra, who was a torturer under the military dictatorship,

0:33:35.520 --> 0:33:38.200
<v Speaker 1>and be a fan of boll Scenaro. When he's at school.

0:33:38.240 --> 0:33:42.440
<v Speaker 1>To his friends, he'll be an oppressive motherfucker. Yeah, I

0:33:42.520 --> 0:33:45.760
<v Speaker 1>mean it straight up. It's just like starting to people

0:33:45.760 --> 0:33:49.280
<v Speaker 1>oppressed people. He'll dress up like a torturer. Um. I

0:33:49.360 --> 0:33:52.520
<v Speaker 1>think comparing like the PT, which to my understanding is

0:33:52.520 --> 0:33:55.320
<v Speaker 1>like a liberal party in Brazil, but like not the

0:33:55.360 --> 0:33:57.640
<v Speaker 1>communist by any means. And so you also see this

0:33:57.680 --> 0:34:00.680
<v Speaker 1>trend of like anything that's even remote the left wing

0:34:00.800 --> 0:34:04.840
<v Speaker 1>is communism, you know that rhetoric being spewed also by

0:34:04.840 --> 0:34:07.680
<v Speaker 1>the right in Brazil. All in America, you can just

0:34:07.800 --> 0:34:11.880
<v Speaker 1>lump in anything anything that like fringey guys don't like.

0:34:12.080 --> 0:34:14.319
<v Speaker 1>You can just lump everything into that for them to

0:34:14.400 --> 0:34:16.439
<v Speaker 1>just label it his left wing. Oh you don't like gays,

0:34:16.480 --> 0:34:18.560
<v Speaker 1>you don't like feminism, or you don't like black people,

0:34:18.600 --> 0:34:20.839
<v Speaker 1>you don't like you don't like the environment, or not

0:34:20.880 --> 0:34:23.080
<v Speaker 1>even you don't like the environment. You're too lazy to

0:34:23.120 --> 0:34:25.600
<v Speaker 1>do anything to help out the environment. All right, let's

0:34:25.640 --> 0:34:27.880
<v Speaker 1>just lump that all that's all left wing, and we

0:34:27.920 --> 0:34:31.000
<v Speaker 1>hate that. We're against it, every aspect of it. So

0:34:31.080 --> 0:34:32.920
<v Speaker 1>he goes on to say, I think it's really interesting.

0:34:32.960 --> 0:34:36.359
<v Speaker 1>So he goes on to say he's gonna tell us

0:34:36.440 --> 0:34:40.040
<v Speaker 1>friends that he's a far he's the far right. He's

0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:45.319
<v Speaker 1>gonna he's gonna tell them that in in reality, uh, Nazism,

0:34:45.480 --> 0:34:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the left wing or the Nazis effectively, and he's going

0:34:49.640 --> 0:34:54.919
<v Speaker 1>to treat everyone equal, independent of race. So it's like, oh,

0:34:54.960 --> 0:34:57.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm extremely right wing. I treat everyone the same no

0:34:57.600 --> 0:35:00.000
<v Speaker 1>matter what color you are. The Nazis and the left

0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:03.359
<v Speaker 1>sing people like it just seems so like didn't past

0:35:03.360 --> 0:35:06.200
<v Speaker 1>the inherent contradictions. Didn't he just say his son's going

0:35:06.239 --> 0:35:09.879
<v Speaker 1>to be an oppressive motherfucker's exactly. It's like bro same song,

0:35:10.040 --> 0:35:12.080
<v Speaker 1>like literally thirty seconds ago, I heard you say you

0:35:12.080 --> 0:35:14.600
<v Speaker 1>don't want to be like putting your boots on people's

0:35:14.600 --> 0:35:17.319
<v Speaker 1>neck like your ustra or wherever this guy's name is.

0:35:17.520 --> 0:35:20.200
<v Speaker 1>All right, we got the other guy. Um he is

0:35:20.239 --> 0:35:29.480
<v Speaker 1>a rapper, Papa Mike from Bellow horizonte Yeah. Uh so

0:35:29.880 --> 0:35:36.560
<v Speaker 1>he's another die hard Baldinestra bosarist kind of Balson balson

0:35:36.680 --> 0:35:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Arista Bosonarista, with songs such as a letter to Balstonaro,

0:35:42.239 --> 0:35:50.320
<v Speaker 1>let's check that out of that's just getting okay. Songs

0:35:50.360 --> 0:35:53.800
<v Speaker 1>like that. They derived the president's opponents as coke heads

0:35:53.800 --> 0:35:57.719
<v Speaker 1>and stoner's and warrens of communists and doctrination in the

0:35:57.760 --> 0:36:00.719
<v Speaker 1>school system in media. So in the the video, it's

0:36:00.719 --> 0:36:04.320
<v Speaker 1>got like uh Hammerson sickles flying around like oh, you

0:36:04.440 --> 0:36:07.359
<v Speaker 1>better watch out. Like in the background they call out

0:36:07.400 --> 0:36:09.319
<v Speaker 1>there's like a picture of like Karl Marks for a

0:36:09.360 --> 0:36:12.239
<v Speaker 1>second and like warning that, oh it's coming for your

0:36:12.320 --> 0:36:16.319
<v Speaker 1>kids and ship like that, um, which all seems kind

0:36:16.360 --> 0:36:19.440
<v Speaker 1>of silly, but then there's another there's another right wing wrapper.

0:36:20.200 --> 0:36:24.000
<v Speaker 1>He's evangelical. Sim's Elvis, and he sort of like breaks

0:36:24.040 --> 0:36:28.040
<v Speaker 1>it down in a way that like a similar to

0:36:28.080 --> 0:36:32.120
<v Speaker 1>arguments i've heard um by like Trump people, like, uh,

0:36:32.200 --> 0:36:34.480
<v Speaker 1>well not really, but I guess like not Trump people

0:36:34.520 --> 0:36:37.759
<v Speaker 1>per se, but like conservatives that I know that like

0:36:37.920 --> 0:36:40.680
<v Speaker 1>cast out on left wing people in the United States.

0:36:40.719 --> 0:36:43.480
<v Speaker 1>So pretty much he he hasn't identified as a Bolshonarista,

0:36:43.600 --> 0:36:46.799
<v Speaker 1>but like he is very conservative, and he said that, um,

0:36:46.800 --> 0:36:49.839
<v Speaker 1>the left is a villa Madelena, which is sort of

0:36:49.880 --> 0:36:53.120
<v Speaker 1>like you know, the Champagne Socialists of Brooklyn don't get this.

0:36:53.200 --> 0:36:55.360
<v Speaker 1>They've never seen a body splayed out on the ground.

0:36:55.680 --> 0:36:57.759
<v Speaker 1>If they've never seen a coffin, it's because they're dog

0:36:57.840 --> 0:36:59.759
<v Speaker 1>If they've ever seen a confidence, because their dog died

0:36:59.840 --> 0:37:02.400
<v Speaker 1>or the the granddad died of old days. So pretty much

0:37:02.400 --> 0:37:05.720
<v Speaker 1>saying that, like, you know, he personally is right wing

0:37:05.840 --> 0:37:08.239
<v Speaker 1>because he grew up so tough that the only left

0:37:08.239 --> 0:37:10.520
<v Speaker 1>wing people that like he sees in the media or

0:37:10.560 --> 0:37:12.640
<v Speaker 1>whatever are like, you know, more well to do folks

0:37:12.640 --> 0:37:16.680
<v Speaker 1>that haven't actually under you know, undergone oppression, and so

0:37:16.760 --> 0:37:18.680
<v Speaker 1>you see, I feel like you here in the United

0:37:18.680 --> 0:37:21.760
<v Speaker 1>States as well a lot of people that are strong

0:37:21.800 --> 0:37:25.440
<v Speaker 1>supporters of capitalism, strong supporters of like a more conservative

0:37:25.480 --> 0:37:30.120
<v Speaker 1>economic agenda, because they picture the left as just like

0:37:30.320 --> 0:37:32.400
<v Speaker 1>very privileged, well to do folks that have no idea

0:37:32.480 --> 0:37:35.880
<v Speaker 1>what reality is. Like well, I mean, you know, like

0:37:36.480 --> 0:37:39.520
<v Speaker 1>I understand, I understand. I understand it in the sense

0:37:39.600 --> 0:37:43.520
<v Speaker 1>of the information is in my ear and I understand

0:37:43.600 --> 0:37:46.440
<v Speaker 1>the logic that they're using and drive those conclusions. But

0:37:46.520 --> 0:37:48.359
<v Speaker 1>it's like, at the end of the day, it's like, man,

0:37:50.120 --> 0:37:52.279
<v Speaker 1>I grew up. I grew up rough, so I hate

0:37:52.320 --> 0:37:55.600
<v Speaker 1>gay people. It's not anything that I'm trying to entertain,

0:37:55.800 --> 0:37:58.440
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. So it's like that it

0:37:58.560 --> 0:38:00.759
<v Speaker 1>was like it was about it a little losing or

0:38:00.800 --> 0:38:04.960
<v Speaker 1>that who is that guy? The oh my god, yeah yeah,

0:38:05.160 --> 0:38:07.080
<v Speaker 1>time flies. I totally forgotten without who thing like, oh

0:38:07.120 --> 0:38:09.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, I just I grew up rough. I didn't

0:38:09.239 --> 0:38:12.360
<v Speaker 1>understand and I wasn't supposed to like fucking hate gays.

0:38:12.480 --> 0:38:16.120
<v Speaker 1>Like here's the thing that I'm interested in asking you about,

0:38:16.200 --> 0:38:20.399
<v Speaker 1>because talking about this it's like, maybe you know, tell

0:38:20.440 --> 0:38:24.200
<v Speaker 1>me if I'm like just being too dismissive. But I

0:38:24.239 --> 0:38:29.680
<v Speaker 1>feel like this Brazilian right wing stuff. It definitely has

0:38:29.719 --> 0:38:32.960
<v Speaker 1>like a personal figure attached to it, because in a

0:38:33.000 --> 0:38:36.560
<v Speaker 1>lot of cases they're actually talking about Bosonaro and stuff

0:38:36.600 --> 0:38:38.960
<v Speaker 1>like that. But if you strip it away and it's

0:38:39.040 --> 0:38:43.640
<v Speaker 1>just them rapping about having these like right wing, ultra

0:38:43.760 --> 0:38:49.480
<v Speaker 1>capitalistic you know what I mean, ideology, is it really

0:38:49.560 --> 0:38:54.279
<v Speaker 1>that that far removed from what's going on here? Going

0:38:54.320 --> 0:38:57.080
<v Speaker 1>on here in a lot of ways. I mean, I

0:38:57.120 --> 0:39:00.480
<v Speaker 1>guess it's just more explicitly like ideologically aligned. That's why.

0:39:00.520 --> 0:39:02.680
<v Speaker 1>That's what I mean. It's like like like yeah, and

0:39:02.719 --> 0:39:05.560
<v Speaker 1>that in that popa mic song, he's like yo, like

0:39:05.600 --> 0:39:07.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, Bostonaro's out in the streets with the rifle

0:39:07.640 --> 0:39:11.319
<v Speaker 1>or whatever, like praising that he's you know, flexible right

0:39:11.400 --> 0:39:13.400
<v Speaker 1>to bear arms and he he and he brings it

0:39:13.440 --> 0:39:16.560
<v Speaker 1>back to if I'm not mistaken, or maybe it's all

0:39:16.560 --> 0:39:18.399
<v Speaker 1>of this is like brings it back to you, like, oh,

0:39:18.520 --> 0:39:21.000
<v Speaker 1>the right to bear arms specifically, like tying it back

0:39:21.000 --> 0:39:24.279
<v Speaker 1>to like a thing that's enshrined in long you know,

0:39:24.320 --> 0:39:28.400
<v Speaker 1>through the Constitution, etcetera. But like in regular regular rap

0:39:28.480 --> 0:39:30.840
<v Speaker 1>music in Nited States, probably in Brazil as well, people

0:39:30.880 --> 0:39:32.959
<v Speaker 1>talk about the flex about having guns all the time

0:39:33.320 --> 0:39:36.360
<v Speaker 1>without making explicitly political, even though ultimately it is. I

0:39:36.400 --> 0:39:39.600
<v Speaker 1>mean that's what the show is about, revealing how all

0:39:39.640 --> 0:39:43.399
<v Speaker 1>these things are like, you know, secretly ideological and so yeah,

0:39:43.400 --> 0:39:44.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean I see what you're saying about. I mean

0:39:45.000 --> 0:39:47.400
<v Speaker 1>getting into when we were talking about the COVID vaccine

0:39:47.400 --> 0:39:50.960
<v Speaker 1>and like that cultural shift of like things being self centered.

0:39:51.000 --> 0:39:54.160
<v Speaker 1>It's about me and that lack of community, you know

0:39:54.160 --> 0:39:57.080
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, community concern and stuff like that. I mean,

0:39:57.120 --> 0:39:58.520
<v Speaker 1>that's the sort of thing where it's like I when

0:39:58.520 --> 0:40:01.319
<v Speaker 1>I listened to hip hop, it's like I try to

0:40:02.520 --> 0:40:06.359
<v Speaker 1>strip it of the context and just focus on what

0:40:06.800 --> 0:40:09.839
<v Speaker 1>the music and the words themselves are accomplishing. And it's like, yeah,

0:40:09.880 --> 0:40:12.640
<v Speaker 1>in a lot of cases, I mean, you know, obviously

0:40:12.800 --> 0:40:15.200
<v Speaker 1>there's exceptions to every rule and ship like that, but

0:40:15.600 --> 0:40:17.120
<v Speaker 1>you know there's a lot of cases where you're just

0:40:17.160 --> 0:40:20.719
<v Speaker 1>hearing stuff drone and drone and drone, and it's like

0:40:21.280 --> 0:40:23.000
<v Speaker 1>for a cat like me, it's like, man, is this

0:40:23.719 --> 0:40:26.720
<v Speaker 1>brought to you by the Koch Brothers? Like what then

0:40:26.840 --> 0:40:28.400
<v Speaker 1>am I listening to? You know what I mean, Like,

0:40:29.080 --> 0:40:31.040
<v Speaker 1>really what am I listen about? It's like a prager,

0:40:31.160 --> 0:40:36.040
<v Speaker 1>you like rant with a beat to it. You know

0:40:36.040 --> 0:40:41.759
<v Speaker 1>about the virtues of capitalism. It's like, you know, you're right, though,

0:40:41.800 --> 0:40:43.640
<v Speaker 1>what else we've got? What else they've gotten? Okay, So

0:40:43.680 --> 0:40:45.760
<v Speaker 1>now we're gonna switch over to some of the cats

0:40:45.800 --> 0:40:50.040
<v Speaker 1>who are antipe, anti ball Scenaro. So let's check out

0:40:50.600 --> 0:40:56.879
<v Speaker 1>the first homie Black Alien with his track how I Surround. Sorry.

0:40:57.160 --> 0:41:01.279
<v Speaker 1>So the title of the song is how my how

0:41:01.360 --> 0:41:04.759
<v Speaker 1>My saw Okay, yeah, which means never will never well

0:41:04.800 --> 0:41:07.080
<v Speaker 1>be never well. Let's check out. Let's check this out

0:41:07.080 --> 0:41:18.400
<v Speaker 1>real quick. Yeah. So the hook for that one is, um,

0:41:18.440 --> 0:41:20.840
<v Speaker 1>what he's saying is what I really think is that

0:41:20.920 --> 0:41:24.879
<v Speaker 1>presidents are temporary. Baby, good music is forever, and these

0:41:25.000 --> 0:41:28.640
<v Speaker 1>losers never will be. And this is him talking about

0:41:28.760 --> 0:41:32.360
<v Speaker 1>the right wing and Balsonara and them uh. In an interview,

0:41:32.400 --> 0:41:35.320
<v Speaker 1>he said, I can't waste the valuable instrument that is

0:41:35.400 --> 0:41:39.080
<v Speaker 1>wrapped and not talk to the people, to young people,

0:41:39.120 --> 0:41:43.000
<v Speaker 1>mainly here in Brazil, an obnoxiously stupid country that doesn't

0:41:43.120 --> 0:41:49.080
<v Speaker 1>educate people. Team half the people voted for this deadbeat

0:41:49.120 --> 0:41:54.640
<v Speaker 1>out of ignorance. Damn, just call you gotta you gotta

0:41:54.680 --> 0:41:57.200
<v Speaker 1>tell it. As Rap steps up the ladder into the

0:41:57.200 --> 0:42:01.120
<v Speaker 1>mainstream of Brazilian music, fight the power songs have been

0:42:01.320 --> 0:42:05.120
<v Speaker 1>sharing more space on the radio and there streaming airwaves,

0:42:05.800 --> 0:42:08.880
<v Speaker 1>on the streaming airwaves instead of music about love and sex.

0:42:09.160 --> 0:42:11.840
<v Speaker 1>So that's good. That's good. At least everyone's like or

0:42:11.840 --> 0:42:13.359
<v Speaker 1>at least, for the most part, a lot of them

0:42:13.400 --> 0:42:17.839
<v Speaker 1>are not. Just you know, because whether you're gonna be

0:42:18.560 --> 0:42:21.839
<v Speaker 1>right wing in your art or left wing in your

0:42:21.960 --> 0:42:24.760
<v Speaker 1>art or down the middle or whatever. I can't stand

0:42:25.120 --> 0:42:28.560
<v Speaker 1>the agnostic approach to ship, Like I'm just like, oh,

0:42:28.560 --> 0:42:31.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm just not into politics. Yeah, I'm ignoring the world.

0:42:31.880 --> 0:42:33.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't, you know, none of that should happen. Like

0:42:33.880 --> 0:42:37.480
<v Speaker 1>I was, I was watching some reading something. We're like

0:42:37.520 --> 0:42:40.200
<v Speaker 1>the dudes from Metallica. We're talking about Yeah, man, we're

0:42:40.200 --> 0:42:42.720
<v Speaker 1>not political. We're just trying to have fun. I'm like, yo,

0:42:43.480 --> 0:42:52.280
<v Speaker 1>what what Yeah, dollar dollar bills, man, people's dolla bills.

0:42:52.320 --> 0:42:55.239
<v Speaker 1>I love that ship, which is inherently ideological if you like, oh,

0:42:55.239 --> 0:42:57.280
<v Speaker 1>we're trying to have fun, We're trying to make stack

0:42:57.320 --> 0:43:00.640
<v Speaker 1>paper like whatever. Like uh huh, you know, I think

0:43:00.680 --> 0:43:06.320
<v Speaker 1>that's informed by ideology. Desert sand Brown. Sure, but last

0:43:06.640 --> 0:43:11.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, Okay. The last one is by set to

0:43:11.440 --> 0:43:17.080
<v Speaker 1>a Prohibito song called prima vera fascista or fascist spring.

0:43:16.280 --> 0:43:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you watch you feel? Um? And the song is

0:43:25.239 --> 0:43:28.680
<v Speaker 1>in the um and the tradition of Brazil's rap Nacio

0:43:28.760 --> 0:43:32.560
<v Speaker 1>now um, which is traditionally stood out as the cultural

0:43:32.640 --> 0:43:36.520
<v Speaker 1>voice of the fazilas and the peripheries throughout Brazila, the

0:43:36.520 --> 0:43:39.359
<v Speaker 1>favelas and brazila sort of like the hood, like the

0:43:39.600 --> 0:43:41.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, the inner inner city slumps and stuff like that.

0:43:42.480 --> 0:43:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Um boson Naro's unprecedented statements again black Brazilians was hatred

0:43:47.840 --> 0:43:51.480
<v Speaker 1>of the poor, the lgbt UH community and lactics of

0:43:51.480 --> 0:43:56.480
<v Speaker 1>all stripes have sort of boards the unity among these people,

0:43:57.600 --> 0:44:01.719
<v Speaker 1>um um, which is where like did in songs like

0:44:02.160 --> 0:44:04.960
<v Speaker 1>pretty very if actually stay here in which Um said

0:44:05.000 --> 0:44:08.600
<v Speaker 1>to a probibito, is that who's does the song? Hold

0:44:08.640 --> 0:44:12.719
<v Speaker 1>on a second, let me make sure it says it's

0:44:12.760 --> 0:44:14.320
<v Speaker 1>produced by that person. I wonder if that was the

0:44:14.400 --> 0:44:16.960
<v Speaker 1>rapper on it. It's it's it's a channel. It's like

0:44:17.000 --> 0:44:19.960
<v Speaker 1>thinks like a YouTube channel or like a SoundCloud channel.

0:44:20.600 --> 0:44:25.440
<v Speaker 1>So so the wrapper here UM talks about idolizing a fascist,

0:44:25.480 --> 0:44:28.200
<v Speaker 1>supporting torture and the people manipulated. I want to put

0:44:28.239 --> 0:44:30.800
<v Speaker 1>you in power I'm the civil war. I'm not afraid

0:44:30.800 --> 0:44:33.080
<v Speaker 1>of your dictatorship. And if someone has to die, let

0:44:33.080 --> 0:44:38.520
<v Speaker 1>it be you. Um some fucking five ship. Um. Your

0:44:38.520 --> 0:44:40.920

<v Speaker 1>Franco Bars, Let's get it. Let's exclusive. Ha ha ha

0:46:40.000 --> 0:46:48.400
<v Speaker 1>ha January almost a year were being hunking down and

0:46:48.400 --> 0:46:52.160
<v Speaker 1>aking aptomen, perpetually talking out and acting Nazia, leaving men

0:46:52.360 --> 0:46:54.560
<v Speaker 1>than on the crusted Silahasha bit of finding out, not

0:46:54.680 --> 0:46:56.680
<v Speaker 1>that I sucked around, although I found it out before

0:46:56.719 --> 0:46:58.880
<v Speaker 1>already knew what was the bus about? But what about

0:46:58.920 --> 0:47:00.759
<v Speaker 1>the bus? I wondered, if a one and how much

0:47:00.760 --> 0:47:03.200
<v Speaker 1>it allowed the possibility that could be a mother. Now

0:47:03.280 --> 0:47:05.120

<v Speaker 1>clusterfuck and so I shut it down, that is, and

0:47:08.680 --> 0:47:11.439
<v Speaker 1>felt ultras down a little. The thump pronounced a little

0:47:11.480 --> 0:47:13.239
<v Speaker 1>hot be something. I was all, let's have my job,

0:47:13.280 --> 0:47:15.480
