Like you're a lot from like blue 235 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: checks on Twitter and liberals that like Twitter isn't real life, 236 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,439 Speaker 1: but it really has an instrumental role I think in 237 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,599 Speaker 1: just building a consensus that maks like outside of just 238 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: social media, you know what I mean? So, um like, 239 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: I think that that's sorely underrated. Now I'm not saying that, 240 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 1: like you know, social media is organizing one on one, 241 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 1: but what I am saying is that if you have 242 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: a platform, um, you know you can you can kind 243 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: of galvanize and kind of incite people, you know, to 244 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: uh alternative is of thinking. Man. I think that for 245 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: the left especially, we gotta we gotta remember that. Yeah, 246 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: and I think, you know, to that point, the Baby 247 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: the Rapper came out, you know, to really challenge a 248 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: lot of his followers into some really critical thinking with 249 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: this tweet that he put out. I would just like 250 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: to read it really quickly. He said, I'm gonna let 251 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: y'all finish, but you got me fucked up if you 252 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: think I ain't voting for you, so yeah, gotta vote 253 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: for Biden. Yeah, man, I mean it's like, you know, 254 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: social media, man, Like what I just realized is like 255 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: because it really is an echo chamber, Like there is 256 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: that downside of it where like people aren't like entertaining 257 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: viewpoints outside of their own. But like for my purposes 258 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: at least, like that ship is dope. You know, I 259 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: don't even have to Like I could just quote tweet 260 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: somebody who's like kind of trying to troll me, and 261 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: I just have an army of people go after them, 262 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: and I don't gotta do ship right right, Yeah, I mean, 263 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: that's that's like the one the armor you have, you've got, 264 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: You've got a lot of defenders that will come, you know, 265 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: to your aid on on Twitter. The thing that's interesting 266 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: too is it's seeing a lot of people, you know, 267 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: like the inability to actually have someone offer like a 268 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: counterpoint that actually is objectively like it's worth considering. But 269 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: like it it also like reinforces to your point. This 270 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: like really like I'm shutting, like shipped down immediately just 271 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: because I don't agree with it. I mean that's not 272 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: for everyone, but you see that that's like I think 273 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: a byproduct two of these echo chambers where you get 274 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: in an environment that is the same thing enough like 275 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: anything that like penetrates that and begins to disrupt that. 276 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: Like it's like it's like treated as a virus almost 277 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: like put this out of here. It's like, don't don't 278 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: try and make me aware of something now, Like I'm 279 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: sit on this thing and I don't even use the 280 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: platform to really try to educate people. Man, because at 281 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: the end of the day, like I don't think I know, 282 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: it sounds like I'm you know, like double backing on 283 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: myself for being contradictory, But I really don't think that 284 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: Twitter is like uh, solely by itself and effective tool 285 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: for organizing, but at least for building a consensus. I mean, 286 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,359 Speaker 1: even if it's like to troll somebody who just has abhorrent, 287 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: heinous views, right, Um, it's useful for that. And you know, 288 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: at that point it's just like, dude, I'm not going 289 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: to write a multi you know, a multi thread tweet 290 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: about like why you should support this candidate or that candidate, 291 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: Like you know, it's I don't think that it's useful 292 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: for that, for that level of like, you know, discourse. 293 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, man, if you want to get some hot 294 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: takes and like kind of shipped on people and build 295 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: a consensus, like yeah, maybe it will rise to the top. Uh, 296 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: and it'll get attention. And I was actually just reading 297 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 1: this article in an academic journal called Jurassic Park where, uh, 298 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: this mathematician dry and Malcolm was talking about how chaos 299 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: and like small, you know, small all things can have 300 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: massive impact.

Even if I make 322 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: seven pancakes, just seven pancakes in an hour, there's forty 323 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: nine dollars. Right. I understand that a portion of that 324 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: goes to overhead, But like you know, people gotta get 325 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: the idea that you are being exploited right exactly, he's 326 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: your your boss.

And the big story of the moment is 385 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:58,199 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden has made his vice president pick um 386 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 1: and it is Kamala Harris. It's the top cop California's 387 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: former top cop in a time where the country is 388 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: going through uprisings and having a moment to really re 389 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: examine the militarization of police and how they are the 390 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: constant gardeners of white supremacy. We have chosen, you know, 391 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: to co opt that energy the former top cop of California. 392 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: What the funck? But look, you know, I think when 393 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: we look at the d n C, you get it. 394 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: You know, this party has never really been about the 395 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: ship they say they're about, and it's all strategic, it's 396 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 1: all all and you know again, but I'm going to 397 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: say off the top because people whenever, whenever we begin 398 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: talking about people with Democrats, everyone wants to get mad. 399 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: This party is fucked either way. So I'm not I'm 400 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: not gonna waste my time tearing down the ticket. Okay, 401 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: if you listen to this podcast, you know where we're at. 402 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: You heard us during the race for the nomination. You 403 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: know who we like, we don't like. You know that 404 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: we are definitely about like fun the party. We're about 405 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: what the what the purpose is. Because if the purpose 406 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: is not about like full scale liberation of all like 407 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: like marginalized people, that's then it's bullshit. Then it's not enough, 408 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: and I'm sorry, that's what's the problem. And I and look, 409 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna take anything away. It is historic, first 410 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: black woman, first Asian American on the ticket as VP. 411 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 1: That's nothing to like to just just completely ignore. But 412 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: I think the thing that for me is I'm looking 413 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: at what is wrong with this country right now and 414 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: what I and I think what many people feel a 415 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: lot of the remedies that are necessary, and we're still 416 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: looking at a kind of politician in Joe Biden and 417 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris that have been sort of maintaining the status 418 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 1: quo of all of the really terrible policies that got 419 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 1: us to this point where we even reached an inflection 420 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: point with all of these uprisings and things like that. 421 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: So it's that's my that's my first exhalation around all 422 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: of it. Um. But I think from there, it's it's 423 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: really about you know, uh, now that they're really having 424 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 1: their eye on Okay, this will help energize the base. 425 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: From the d n C point of view, this is 426 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: great because it will help turn out black women who 427 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: have been like the core of the Democratic Party. So 428 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: that's I understand that move that they're doing. She's gonna 429 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: she's gonna be great on the campaign trail. And but 430 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: then the other part that really really makes me like 431 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: not anxious, but like the thing that I'm dreading is 432 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,880 Speaker 1: just have to watch like the white supremacy hulk smash 433 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: conservative media machine just fully activate and we see the 434 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: exact same things that happened to like black and brown people, 435 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: especially black women. That's going to happen to Kamala Harris, 436 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:39,959 Speaker 1: which I know is is going to be stuff like oh, 437 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: I'm oh in that debate, she really lost control. No 438 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: matter what is going on, it's gonna she's gonna be 439 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: out of control. She's gonna not be speaking, she speaks aggressively. 440 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: A lot of those things are gonna be dragged out. 441 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: And like that's the other part. I'm like, oh god, 442 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: I'm like all right, exhausted, just envisioning like how all 443 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: of this makes people feel going forward. So yeah, yeah, 444 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 1: I mean, like you know, it's it's like on the 445 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: one hand, uh, my family is from Jamaica, so they 446 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: are very excited about this.

Um, you know, the militarization of police. 456 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: And it really is fitting that she you know, as 457 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: you know, a prosecutor um who ruined the lives of 458 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: so many you know, black people and people of color. 459 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: It just kind of is. And also during this moment, 460 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: like you're saying of like uprising against like systemic racism, 461 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: police brutality, it's almost like Biden has or the Democratic 462 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: Party has put progressives and black people in a conundrum 463 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: where it's like, oh, so you're not going to support 464 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: the first black women VP, and it's like, and that's 465 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: what the Democratic Party does, right, It's it's you know, 466 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: this is not my my saying, but the Democratic Party 467 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: is where social movements go to die. So how cynical 468 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: are you to pick a candidate that um, I mean 469 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: people were railing against, like before you know, the resurgence 470 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: of this whole BLM movement.

And so on 488 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: one hand, you can have that big you know, black 489 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: tile energy, blackout Tuesday energy as a party or say 490 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: you're you're you're you know, you're an ally of the 491 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: BLM movement, but also at the same time, you're not 492 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: willing to examine the militarization of police, and you're not 493 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: willing to examine like or you want to say. The 494 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: second opponent says, well, if you don't talk about defunding 495 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: the police, that's dangerous, and you go, okay, well that 496 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: that's not what I meant. That's not what I meant. 497 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,239 Speaker 1: That's see, that's you have no purpose. Then you were 498 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: just you went into it to be like, Okay, how's 499 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: this talking point going to do? Too hot? I don't 500 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: believe it enough. And I'm such a politician. I'll dial 501 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: it back as to try and like just kind of maintain. 502 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: And we're a lot of people are past that we 503 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: don't have time for incremental uh solutions to these really 504 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: really deeply entrenched problems we have in this country. And 505 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: that's that's what the thing that makes me cynical as 506 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: a human being, because I'm like, we we continue to 507 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: leave so many people behind. And I wanted, yeah, well, 508 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 1: well I just like real quick, like I just for 509 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: people who are like, well, aren't you concerned about defeating Trump, 510 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: like Kamala Harris, Like you know when she was the 511 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: attorney general. She failed to prosecute Steve Manuch's bank for um, 512 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: you know, foreclosure violations in two thousand thirteen, if if 513 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: if she had, and you know, this is to say 514 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: that the the role of a prosecutor in this country 515 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: is not at all progressive. It's it's not really meant 516 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: the whole powerful people accountable. But if she had done 517 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: her fucking job, maybe we wouldn't see Steve Manuchin in 518 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: the Trump White House right now, right well. And I 519 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: think this is where part of me almost wants to 520 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: zoom back further right because I can't even place this 521 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: directly on Joe Biden or Kamala Harris, is like on them, 522 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: because this is just the system that these people enter 523 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: and they know they willingly enter it, and we have 524 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: to be sort of objective enough to be like this 525 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: the thing that they that system is completely fucked up, 526 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: Like no matter like you enter it, it's just gonna 527 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: chew you up and spit you out, or you're gonna 528 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: get in there and you're gonna completely lose yourself in 529 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: like the pursuit of staying in office. And just like clockwork, 530 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: the racist bullshit attacks began. Fuck the second it was announced, 531 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: like Trump fucking just me is like he had a tweet, 532 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: the suburban housewife will be voting for me. They want safety, 533 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: and they're thrilled that I ended the long running program 534 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 1: where low income housing would invade their neighborhood. Biden would 535 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 1: reinstall it in a bigger form with Corey Booker in charge. 536 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: Didn't even spell Corey Booker's name right, So he knows 537 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: he's losing white women support in the suburbs. And this 538 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: this is a nice throwback to the sixties where he's 539 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: talking about the suburban housewife, you know, asking again the 540 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: constant gardeners of white supremacy, because like white women did 541 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: it very well, um in the sixties, please come back, 542 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: like hopefully I can use this language to reinspire you 543 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: know that, to come to my defense. Please. And he 544 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: continued this nonsense even on Sean Hannity later and he 545 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: said a lot of people think it's a dangerous choice. 546 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: I think she is the most liberal person supposedly in 547 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: the Senate. Yeah, yeah, I mean, and like, I mean, dude, 548 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, man, it's just about like, 549 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: you know, what do you see as like progress, right, 550 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: and how much longer of people in this country going 551 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: to be forced to decide between the lesser of two evils. 552 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: And I really don't mean that lightly. Like people want 553 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: to ask, like I want to talk about how we 554 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: got where we were. How about we talk about the 555 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,719 Speaker 1: eight years, the eight years of a little bottle administration, right, 556 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: and the fail neoliberal policies that left so many people 557 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: behind mind at a time when we were meant to 558 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: believe that we were post racial society, especially you know, 559 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: after Bush, that things were going to get better. And 560 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: like the fact that we are here at this point 561 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: with Joe Biden, a dying man, as the nominee of 562 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: a dying party, I mean that says a lot about 563 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: like the people in power and how much of the 564 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: ship they give about us. Right, Well, yeah, the the 565 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: policies tend to just benefit their own more than anything. 566 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: And it's like almost like two dying parties now going 567 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 1: toe to toe. And then like there's meanwhile, there's an 568 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: entire you know, millennials and younger are looking at looking 569 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: at this whole thing, like what the funk is this? 570 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: Like we don't have like y'all keep talking about the 571 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 1: stock market and the gains and ship like then like meanwhile, 572 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: the wealth accumulation, the ability to accumulate wealth for general 573 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: or for millennials and younger is just like gone. Oh so, 574 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 1: like we're not even dealing like the same sentiments that 575 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: they try and appeal to with, like a lot of 576 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: the rhetoric and things don't even like like resonate on 577 00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: a certain level because we're more like, man, all I'm 578 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: seeing is a lot of suffering and like I know, 579 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people who are not supported and at 580 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: the very least, like can we can we can we 581 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: figure that part out too?

To 595 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: have faux progressives like people who have horrible records to 596 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: come on and say, all right, I'm now have the 597 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: change of heart in mind to represent you and we hear, 598 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: we see you. But it's all performative, right, It's not 599 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: rooted in people's actual material needs. And again, you know, 600 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: I'm not taking away the fact that this is historic moment, 601 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: but didn't we say that with Barack Obama that has 602 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: historic moment? And where the funk are we now? Right? Yeah, 603 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: it's since since I've been been alive, like for for 604 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: the last forty years, there has been no uh, there's 605 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: no like there. You have the right wing party that 606 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: has the conviction of its racist, white supremacist beliefs, and 607 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 1: then you have the Democratic Party, which is all about 608 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: triangulation and calculating and just you know, figuring out strategically 609 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: where the next best move is. So there's nothing anchoring 610 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: anything to the left, and that has that has ended 611 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: up with everything just gradually like moving further and further 612 00:33:55,120 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: right until now we have an actual fascist party that's 613 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: the party with the conviction of its police, and then 614 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is just actively trying to triangulate, like 615 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: they just never it's always about, like you said, it's shortsighted. 616 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: It's about what the calculation is this time, um, when 617 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 1: it should be about like really looking at the state 618 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 1: of our country and just acknowledging shit. Really, that's really 619 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: what it is. It's it's like so many, so much 620 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: of like American politics is just about avoiding the acknowledgment 621 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: of like just the widespread disparities between people and their 622 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 1: ability to to live a you know, a seemingly stable 623 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 1: and happy life according to the American dream. But again 624 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 1: it's just more like we're just indoctrinating people, like the 625 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 1: American dream is like suffer and then you might hit 626 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: it big, right, That's right, Yeah, it's just the you know, 627 00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:00,280 Speaker 1: I mean that when they're designing when they're designing apps, 628 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 1: like one of the most important things that they build 629 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 1: in to make something addictive like a phone game is 630 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 1: like randomization and like the ability to randomly get lucky 631 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: and like you know, like turning turning games into a 632 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: slot machine. And that's why American society has like got 633 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: us stuck in this cycle is because it has that 634 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: kind of that is designed into the DNA of the system. 635 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: But um, I mean, if you want to see how 636 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: allergic the d n C is to actual like people 637 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: with actual convictions, look what they did to the squad 638 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: in these primaries, the most exciting, the most energetic part 639 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: of their base, Like the most energizing thing to happen 640 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 1: to the Democratic Party in the last you know, yeah, 641 00:35:55,480 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: uh is Bernie and these women and these women, uh, 642 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: they tried to take them out. I mean they like 643 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 1: some of it's all got primary. Everybody got primary. They 644 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: weren't getting in the way of yeah, got primary by 645 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: people who were way more in line with what the 646 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: mainstream Democratic Party would Why who ran against Ilhun was 647 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: some like a meditation lawyer. But let me like my 648 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 1: my whole theory, man, is that I don't actually think 649 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is trying to win, right, Like it's 650 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: easier to be the opposition and stand like a get 651 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: something than to stand for anything at all. Like I 652 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:41,359 Speaker 1: think that they are the controlled opposition where they would 653 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: rather be in a position to say, well, we couldn't 654 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 1: get these policies through because the Republicans wouldn't let us. 655 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 1: We see this in New York. Andrew Cuomo, governor of 656 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: New York, is famous for doing this, for colluding with 657 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,720 Speaker 1: the I think it's the I d C. The Independent 658 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 1: Democratic Caucus, which is like these Democratic uh state senators, 659 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: we've broken off from the Democrats. They caucus with Republicans 660 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: and the New York State Legislature. And what he says 661 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 1: always is like, well, I couldn't do this because you know, 662 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: the Republicans wouldn't let us. It's like, nah, dude, you 663 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: guys have the same corporate corporate donors and overlords, like 664 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: you don't want this to happen. And I don't really 665 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 1: think that they want to win, right, Like, if you 666 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: really wanted to win, you would at least like nominally, 667 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 1: like you know, ostensibly pivot left right and make these 668 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 1: promises that you have no intention of keeping. But Joe 669 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 1: Biden even now during a pandemic, is like medicare for all, 670 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 1: Like nah, you know, well, I think because it's I mean, yes, 671 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: it's because if they I don't know if it's like 672 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: really about like winning or not winning. It's just about 673 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: not going fully advocating for people, because if you didn't, 674 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: then you up end, up end this whole like corporate ocracy, 675 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: oligarchical fucking system. So in that way, like I mean, yes, 676 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,439 Speaker 1: I guess it's it's it's sort of just the same coin. 677 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 1: Or it's easier to just disingenuous be like well I 678 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: can't do that, Like what if they're not gonna vote, 679 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: what do you want me to do? Like get voted out? 680 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 1: And like really you want me to really just go 681 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: for it as a politician and like really draw a 682 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 1: line and say like this is what I'm not going 683 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: to do that that's not how it works, because then 684 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 1: this will happen. Well if you had if you had 685 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,280 Speaker 1: a if the Democratic Party was an actually an actual 686 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: party and not like this fucking exclusive club of like 687 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,320 Speaker 1: failed sons and failed daughters of people that wanted to 688 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: go into fucking business the business world but they failed 689 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 1: to do so, if they actually like believed in like winning, 690 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 1: they would galvanize, like you know, the millions of like 691 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,800 Speaker 1: working people, young people, you know, people of color across 692 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: this country, the people who don't fucking vote right instead 693 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 1: of like like like we see in fucking Kentucky, right 694 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: with Amy McGrath, like the Democratic challenger to Mitch McConnell, 695 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: right when when fucking Charles Booker, which was an actually 696 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: he was an actual progressive, right and like I think 697 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: he I think he might have even like out not 698 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: even though he outraised her, but he got really really 699 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: yeah like when yeah, he from zero to like sixties 700 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,880 Speaker 1: so quickly because so many people saw like well McGrath 701 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 1: was like a sort of big d Democrat and then 702 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: you had someone who was more in line with what 703 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 1: the feeling was in the country of like this person 704 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: gets it. This person is saying like I'm trying to 705 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 1: do it, Like guess what though fucking Amy McGrath now 706 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:25,280 Speaker 1: is seventeen points behind mcar Like, oh, like, good fucking job, 707 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: you know, Democratic Party, like putting up this candadate that 708 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,320 Speaker 1: you know what's gonna fucking lose. But the thing is, 709 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,720 Speaker 1: you know, like and knowing this just from like working 710 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: in lobbying and things like that. When you when your 711 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 1: clients work in a certain industry, you're gonna say, I 712 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 1: don't like this senator because he keeps talking about doing 713 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: some kind of analysis on what the tax benefits are, 714 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,240 Speaker 1: Like you know what what pell grants do from my industry, 715 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 1: and I don't want that so you're gonna have to 716 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 1: figure out how to either get this person out office, 717 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 1: do this, or do so. In in that sense, like 718 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 1: with Amy McGrath, you have someone like, uh, you know, 719 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 1: a challenger coming up who you're gonna say, oh, this 720 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,919 Speaker 1: this threatens to actually bend my business because the things 721 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 1: that this person is talking about means I'm gonna have 722 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 1: to either pay more in this or receive less in 723 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: this department. And then it's now like, get that person 724 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: the funk out of there because you just know, like 725 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 1: if they get too much power, that affects my bottom 726 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 1: line as a business owner. And I think that's where 727 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: let's go for the comfortable thing because at least MS 728 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell, like they all, at least Republicans bang with 729 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 1: business owners. So like, I don't care if I don't 730 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: care about the suffering of marginalized people, like but my 731 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 1: my very narrow like economic existence. You know, whatever fund 732 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 1: doesn't need to be a conspiracy where someone is saying, Okay, 733 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:37,320 Speaker 1: let's lose this election. It's that they have priorities. In 734 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: the first priority is like we talked about, like the 735 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,319 Speaker 1: the one thing that stuck out to me from uh 736 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:48,280 Speaker 1: listening to the pod Save shows is they talked about 737 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 1: how the very first thing you do when you're evaluating 738 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 1: a candidate is look at the donors that they have 739 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: in their phone book, Like you actually take their phone 740 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 1: and go through it and see like what kind to 741 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:05,240 Speaker 1: connections they have for fundraising. So funding is the top priority, 742 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 1: and then you get into like the thing that should 743 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 1: be the top priority is like if you're just evaluating 744 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 1: this as a meritocratic system, like this dude has so 745 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 1: much energy behind him he is like that is talent. 746 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: That is what political movements are built on, and instead 747 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 1: they just put all their all their weight behind the 748 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 1: person who has you know them all these big movements, 749 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 1: all these big movements act for one thing, equality or liberation, 750 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 1: and that is just not going to That's this it's 751 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: fighting assistant is built to like prevent that, right, so 752 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 1: like to kind of like, you know, I don't know 753 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 1: how many of your listeners are going to be familiar 754 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,400 Speaker 1: with this. They're probably gonna be hearing this kind of 755 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: idea for the first time, but I know that they 756 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 1: sense it, right, Like, you know, Lennon wrote this really 757 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: great book on the state called State and Revolution, and 758 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: Marx has said this too. I mean Lennon is getting 759 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 1: his cues from Marx, but I mean the state exists 760 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 1: to mediate class relations. The state exists to aid the 761 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: capitalist class in oppressing the working class, right, I mean, 762 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,560 Speaker 1: like this ship is literally built into the constitution. It's 763 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: even built into the ethos of the Declaration of Independence. Right, life, liberty, 764 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 1: and like the pursuit of happiness, which was the pursuit 765 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 1: of property. Right. So I mean, like, you know, I 766 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: think that people really have to understand that, like in 767 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: in this system, I mean electoralism, uh forever for whatever 768 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: it's worth. Right, And I'm not saying that like I 769 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: mean even me, I have nuanced views, right, like I'll 770 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: support down ballot candidates, right, but just understanding, just understand 771 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 1: that this system really is not designed to affect any change. 772 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: I mean my political science professor I was taking classes 773 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 1: at Georgia State said it best. Um, this system prevents 774 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 1: and the architecture prevents anything from happening, anything bad, but 775 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 1: also anything good. Right, So I just want people really understand, like, um, 776 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,640 Speaker 1: what what does it mean to say like we're backing 777 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 1: a candidate like Corey Bush. Writer candidate like Corey Bush 778 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 1: is one right, someone who has come up through the 779 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,319 Speaker 1: working class at what point used to be homeless, someone 780 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: who's unabashed like in her lived experience as like, you know, 781 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 1: a working class black woman and to say that she 782 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:28,400 Speaker 1: like unseated this like you know dynasty right of like uh, 783 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 1: these establishment democrats. I mean what that means is that 784 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 1: at this time, like people all across this country are 785 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 1: seeking an alternative to like you know, the the the 786 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 1: the dichotomy of the two parties, you know, and what 787 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 1: it means to be a Democrat. I mean, what does 788 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: it even mean to be a Democrat? You know what 789 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: I mean? Like yeah, And I think a lot of 790 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 1: people having that moment, like I feel like where Democrats 791 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 1: have been like am I bad? Like is it bad? 792 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 1: Like is the party? I thought this was the good party? 793 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,320 Speaker 1: Because I think some people look at Democrats it was 794 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: like a binary and like they're like Democrat good, Republican bad, 795 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,320 Speaker 1: rather than being like the whole thing fucked up. But 796 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 1: I don't have to be that, yeah, I mean, and 797 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: then people take it very personally when it's like talking 798 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: about the parties, like but do you hold on? Because 799 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 1: where I'm speaking from is a place of just like 800 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,759 Speaker 1: do you agree with the sentiment that people who are 801 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 1: vulnerable needs support that we have completely uh dismantled for 802 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 1: hundreds of years, uh the ability of black people in 803 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: this country to move up socioeconomically, like completely, And if 804 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: we believe that, then let's let's focus on that. Let's 805 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 1: not get all this other language like are this like 806 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: the the part of like I'm a democrat or whatever, 807 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 1: but really be moving forward and with the sense of 808 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 1: just like don't release that. First figure out what your 809 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 1: values are as a human being.

The 836 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 1: problem with liberals, man, is that they talked about how 837 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 1: Bernie supporters um were entertaining a cult personality. But that's 838 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 1: all these people do, right. These people literally want to 839 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 1: elect someone who they feel could be their teacher, their 840 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 1: best friend. They're fucking therapists, their soccer mom, and they 841 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 1: don't give a ship insofar as like this person's policies. 842 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 1: What I mean people who are not them exactly, dude, 843 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 1: And it's like, motherfucker, Like, yeah, I was a Bernie 844 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 1: bro you know what, Like Bernie disappointed me. You know, 845 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 1: I supported him, he disappointed me, But I don't. He's 846 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 1: just a vessel, right for these ideas. He's not like 847 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,399 Speaker 1: some fucking god that I can't criticize. And the fact 848 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 1: that these people like they're they're idealist is what it is. 849 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:47,400 Speaker 1: And I don't mean idealists in the sense that they're hopeful. 850 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 1: It means that they think that all the circumstances, like 851 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 1: you know, everything right now, history and the current predicament 852 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 1: that we're in is motivated by ideas, by people with 853 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:02,320 Speaker 1: great ideas. I'm a materialist, right, that doesn't mean like 854 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 1: a horn ship and a boy ship, but it means 855 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:08,800 Speaker 1: that to me, history is motivated by material circumstances. History 856 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 1: is a class struggle, It's about power, it's about resources. 857 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: So I don't you know, like I really have to 858 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:18,279 Speaker 1: question these people and their commitment to any sort of 859 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 1: liberal like emanciatory emancipatory movement. Right, Well, I think that's 860 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 1: what the thing is, that all of the it all 861 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,280 Speaker 1: depends on your level of engagement, because some people engage 862 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 1: with it just so they can have a side to 863 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,799 Speaker 1: be on and argue with people. And then I think 864 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:35,399 Speaker 1: for people who are really looking at what the lived 865 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 1: experiences of human beings like within these walls and borders, 866 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 1: then it's a different thing because now you you know, 867 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 1: like I've like when you work with people and you 868 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: are in your side by side with people who you 869 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:51,880 Speaker 1: know need help and you know, like they're going to 870 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,720 Speaker 1: go home to a place that is has no electricity, 871 00:47:56,200 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 1: hot water and this is fucking America and yeah, and 872 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 1: just dealing with it. That makes me sick, Like I 873 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 1: don't like that idea is really fucked up. Like as 874 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,840 Speaker 1: a person, I you know it's idealistic, but I just 875 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,480 Speaker 1: feel every person deserves it, just a certain base level 876 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 1: of stability and caring due to that. That's it. That's it, 877 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 1: And how we get there, I don't know how we 878 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,319 Speaker 1: get there, but I know that's the thing that's like move, 879 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 1: That's that's the reason I get on this, Mike, That's 880 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 1: the reason I'll just I'll say whatever the funk I 881 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: want to, But that's where I'm coming from. I really 882 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:35,880 Speaker 1: believe that every single human being. They deserve the same 883 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 1: fucking shot, and they deserve the same place to start from. 884 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: But when we're not dealing with it, and you just 885 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: get caught up and like, oh, go off, queen, and 886 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 1: you what the fuck? No, I'm talking about young kids 887 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:54,320 Speaker 1: getting fucking murdered by police and there's no fucking justice. 888 00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 1: I'm not. I don't give a funk what someone is 889 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,840 Speaker 1: wearing or whatever the funk, because that doesn't take some 890 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,360 Speaker 1: that doesn't reverse time and make the bullet exit this 891 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 1: child's body and breathe life back into their soul. Like 892 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen. So if we're not talking about ship 893 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 1: that's preventing all this real dark ship, then we get 894 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:13,800 Speaker 1: lost in all that, like you know, the fucking circus 895 00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:16,279 Speaker 1: of politics, and that's where it's that's where people are 896 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 1: just getting distracted. And that's what's disheartening. It's like you 897 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 1: get so caught up in like what you know I 898 00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 1: said about your favorite politician, But what I'm you're not 899 00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:30,279 Speaker 1: seeing the anger that I have for the situation that 900 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 1: people are subjected to in their day to day lives. 901 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 1: It's not about Biden or Kamala or Barack Obama. It's 902 00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,839 Speaker 1: the fact that people don't have ship and no one 903 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 1: gives a funk and then the richest people continue to 904 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: do so, and there's there's just doesn't there's just no 905 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:49,799 Speaker 1: problem with that.
