This is this stories really 144 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: super interesting actually because it first of all, it started 145 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: with a Utah like Churchill Latter Day Saints trend where 146 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, they don't get to funk with alcohol or 147 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: any any of that stuff, so they like get really 148 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: in depth and thoughtful about their soda drinks. And there's 149 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: like competing soda bars, and one of them started doing 150 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: what they call dirty sodas, which is just like pouring 151 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: milk in sodas and sounds really gross to man. I 152 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: haven't tried it, but people are working with it enough 153 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: that Pepsi has come up off their decades long marketing 154 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: tactic of just being like, hey, do you like popular music, 155 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: then you'll like Pepsi like spice Girls, and and they've 156 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: they're they're trying something that actually has to do with 157 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: their products. So that's exciting. Oh, I thought it was 158 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: like some more like outrage marketing. We're introducing pilk and 159 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 1: probably but I don't probably get some of that it 160 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: sounds disgusting the origin.

Yeah, anyways, 163 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 1: we'll get here. Dirty sprite, I think of somebody completely different, 164 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: but that's in Utah.

Man, just it was just 205 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 1: a sour cream ball with lettuce, and I was like 206 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: this used to mean something to me. Hold on what 207 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: it was sour cream? You just have sour cream and 208 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: a bowl with no no, no, They just like that's 209 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 1: like where the heavy hand was. Like, you know, I 210 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 1: just had my standards sour. It was my standard order 211 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: of cream ball with lettuce, and it just wasn't game. Stinks. 212 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: Other people was living like a monster. Yeah, I mean 213 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: I think it's like it had its hey day, Like 214 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: I mean, at least I remember when I was eating 215 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 1: heavy it was like eleven. Yeah, like heavy, like you 216 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: couldn't get you had to fucking like like pull me 217 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: out of there because I was just about that life. 218 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: And then I think over time you just kind of 219 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: like this isn't actually the best Mexican food you can eat, 220 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: so it more just becomes like I think because they 221 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,599 Speaker 1: had a burrito bowl was like the first thing that 222 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: like inspired me to go. And then after a while, 223 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: like you know what, I like barritos enough that I'll 224 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: have a real one. Yeah, every local Mexican place is 225 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: cheaper and better. Right, basically, nont matter where you are, 226 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: like even on Long Island, Like my friends were like 227 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: hang on with my bros a lot, and like we're 228 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: not no one's ever like, yeah, tonight's the Chipotle at night? 229 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: Just right, Yeah it was for a while. It had 230 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: a run, and I do feel like I want to 231 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: say on behalf of Chipotle. I like their chips. I 232 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: like their chips with the you know, so sometimes I 233 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: have a little extra salta sometimes I'll splurge for the guac. 234 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 1: But I do like their chips are inconsistent even within 235 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 1: the bag. But there's like always one chip that's like 236 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: gets gets the lime juice and the salt and really 237 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 1: hits hard. So I don't know. I I still kind 238 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: of like Chipotle, but I also haven't had it for 239 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: like a year and a half, so maybe maybe they've 240 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: fallen off. I will say like they I have gone 241 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: to Chipotle and been very disappointed with what with the results. 242 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 1: So there there's a lot of variability. Yeah, Like I 243 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: don't like again, I don't hate Chipotle. I'm just it's 244 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: low on my list if I'm looking at things I 245 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: want to eat, and I think, like, because Jack, when 246 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: we were when we had that like studio in Hollywood, stab, Yeah, 247 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: you just don't get it, baby, But I remember that 248 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: was the time, like I would only eat Chipotle was 249 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,599 Speaker 1: because I'm like, well, sh it already maxed out on 250 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: everything around here, like and we'd be like, I guess 251 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: we'll go to Chipotle. Yeah. But yeah, I have noticed 252 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 1: that they boxed up the stuff from your desk finally 253 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: two years after we left for the pandemic and sent 254 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: at home to you and ever since thing you've been 255 00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 1: talking about the the studio in the past tense. Yeah, 256 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: I'm just here to say it's still there. I mean 257 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 1: I've even opened the box. It's like it's like Schrodinger's 258 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: like lost stuff box, Like I don't want it to 259 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: be real. I'm I opened a box full of like 260 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,439 Speaker 1: old work stuff from like an old job, and I 261 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: was just like, just reminded me how much I hated 262 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: my I love I love stumbling upon old pack your 263 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: desk boxes that you have, like the one I found 264 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: from when I worked at Playboy, Like I threw away 265 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: because it gave me a panic attack. Yeah, like all 266 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: the to do lists and ship that I used to 267 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: like tape to the side of my fucking computer just 268 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: like came flying out like they were the Spirits and 269 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: Ghostbusters when like that ship when the spirit trapped gets opened, Yeah, 270 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: it was bad news gave.

I'm like, there's 283 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: no fucking way that we can call this like a 284 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: healthy thing to eat. Because like I'm starting to see 285 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: like streaks of light in my like line of vision 286 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: from how sweet it is also my favorite like fake flavor, 287 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: like I think they've mostly nailed pineapple in like gum 288 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: and ship like that like that. It's it generally is fruit. 289 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: I guess there's not a lot of like pineapple candy, 290 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: but I do. Yeah, I do tend to enjoy a 291 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: lot of pineapp gum and pineapple flavored things. Blueberries year round. 292 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: They're they're never that bad. I agree. We've been talking 293 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: a lot about apples on this podcast, but I think 294 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: I think we should spend some time on bananas. Bananas 295 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: are fucking delicious, and don't like them. You don't like bananas, 296 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: I've we've talked about to make my throat. Oh yeah, 297 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: that's right, you have it might be allergic. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 298 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: that's that's right. Justin's allergic too. Yeah, but I eat. 299 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: But I have the same thing with avocados. It's like 300 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: those high potassium foods they like trigger little things in 301 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: my throat or like my lip. But avocados I fucking fight. 302 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: Oh my, I don't give a fuck. Those of us 303 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: who can enjoy them. Bananas are a real blessing, real. Yeah. 304 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: They made me think of tiger woods because it's like 305 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: a thing he'll eat right before he like wins a 306 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: golf tournament. What's he doing, He's like walking to the 307 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: last hole. He's just like pounding a banana. Like, Oh, 308 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: I guess that's what you're supposed to eat. Yeah. I 309 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: bring up my kids anytime we need to like give 310 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: them a snack. It's like the easiest thing. Like it's 311 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: it's so good. They're a fruit that is creamy, Like 312 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: there's not are there other fruits that are creamy? But 313 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 1: like if you're like doing a doing a smoothie, like, 314 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: they's such a good base that adds. It's like, would 315 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: you put like ice cream in this? No, just banana? 316 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: It's yeah, I guess guava is a good creamy replacement, 317 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: according to a super producer just m. But and I 318 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: heard people like the organic people, the people who like 319 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 1: like are worried about their food, which we just talked 320 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 1: a lot about Taco bell I can't imagine that's any 321 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: of us. But like the skin is super thick, so 322 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: like it's not one of those food like when you 323 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: need an apple, like the skin has just been like 324 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: rolling around in the truck for four years. But like 325 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: a bananas like protected. So it's it's a pretty safe 326 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: even for like the I mean, I get the organic, 327 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: I spend the twenty cents, but it's like an armadillo, 328 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: it's got a thick skin on it. You know, there's 329 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: nothing getting through there. Yet I am very suspicious of 330 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: the amount of like really glossy apple skins that I've consumed, 331 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 1: like that look like they were buffed out with like 332 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: car wax. It's like, come on, they shouldn't look that good, 333 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: but every day of the year they look the same. 334 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: It's wrong. They used to be food, used to Yeah, amazing. 335 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: All right, well, let's take a quick break and we'll 336 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: be right back to talk about some of the things 337 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: that are happening elsewhere in the world. And we're back 338 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: and yeah. Zero. So the thing that the way I 339 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: heard it was that China is seeing as largest protests 340 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: since Tiana Mint and it's protests to the zero COVID policies. Yeah, 341 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: that's one part of it, which is one part of it, 342 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: but there's all so another part that's kind of getting written, 343 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: many parts of it. Yeah, I think, I mean, obviously 344 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: the zero COVID has a lot to do with it, 345 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,959 Speaker 1: and that extends into other things like labor specifically at 346 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: like factories that make app like iPhones or Tesla's um. 347 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: But you know, things came to a head, like the 348 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 1: zero COVID policy has been like a huge, huge, like 349 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: like fucked up experience for the people in China. Like 350 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: if you know anybody who's who lives out there and 351 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 1: has been like locked down, it's like, what you really 352 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: can't like even leave and like you can't even go outside. 353 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: They're like, no, you can. My spoiled ass thought that 354 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 1: they were like forcing them to wear masks like that. 355 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: That was myber Like I'm like, well, what would anger 356 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: Americans that much? Maybe masks? They're chaining them inside their 357 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: homes and places of work, right, So things came to 358 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 1: a head when this fire broke out in an apartment 359 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: building in the capital of the Shinjang province, which is 360 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: where like the mass surveillance and incarceration of Muslim minorities 361 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: like the eagers that's been it's worth taking place there. 362 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: Ten people died as a result of this fire, and 363 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: the fire was particularly horrifying because of these COVID lockdowns. 364 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: The firefighters weren't even able to get their trucks like 365 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 1: close enough to the buildings because of all the like 366 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: barricades that have been put up to keep people from 367 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: like leaving. And the videos are harrowing because you're seeing 368 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: like fire trucks where the water is barely like touching 369 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: the exterior of this flaming building, and you're hearing people 370 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: like like just like from the fire. Yeah, And it's 371 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: really and I think that kind of I think the 372 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: absurdity of all that just inspired many people to be 373 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: like this is like this is completely terrible. And what 374 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: we see now are these protests that have you know, 375 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: spread across the country where people like spontaneously and you're 376 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: seeing people doing like just holding up blank sheets of 377 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: white paper as a way to demonstrate while like navigating 378 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: like censorship laws and the big parts of it too 379 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 1: are like it's really there's so many dimensions to it, 380 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: but one dimension is, yes, the lockdowns, and they're not 381 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: like what we have in the U s where you 382 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,719 Speaker 1: can still go out for necessary activity. And even then 383 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 1: the US like they're the enforcement was like really none. 384 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 1: It was like about whether or not you gave a 385 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 1: funk about yourself enough. In China, it's like unlike anything 386 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: else in the world like you're saying, Jack, Like in 387 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: some cases, people's doors are barred shut, the exits to 388 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: buildings are being chained up, so there's no escape. And 389 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: this has led to all kinds of problems, not just 390 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: like I can't get out of my house. It's like 391 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: I need dialysis and I can't get out of my house. 392 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: I need medical care and I can't get out of 393 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: my house. I'm not a you know, white collar tech worker, 394 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: so I can't even work because I can't leave the house. 395 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: And it's like going across different classes, ethnicities, and now 396 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 1: people are basically out here demonstrating, like you said, in 397 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,640 Speaker 1: ways that you know. Certainly she Jimping has not seen 398 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: this in his ten years leader, but in decades since 399 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: Tandeman and the other part of it. The other part 400 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,719 Speaker 1: of it too, in terms like the factories, is at 401 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: these factories like that makes iPhones and Tesla's, they have 402 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 1: something called closed loop management, is what happens when there's 403 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,880 Speaker 1: like a COVID exposure and outbreak within like a factory. 404 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: This basically means the workers sleep at the factories and 405 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: do not leave until they deemed the outbreak to be 406 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: under control. Some workers have been sorry what what a 407 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: great like use of like corporate euphemistic like that, like 408 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: corporate euphemism's greatest work is closed loop management. Yeah, as 409 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 1: a as a term for when human caging exactly it's 410 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: really actually locked the gates, is what it should be called. 411 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: And some workers were stuck at the factory for seventy 412 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: days and so this led to workers breaking down barricades, 413 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: literally running for the exits and clashing with police who 414 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: are like trying to keep them in. And again, most 415 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: of the reporting leaves out this element because again I 416 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: think it's easier just focused on like the draconian policy 417 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: of like zero COVID, but it does ignore how, like 418 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,640 Speaker 1: the other dimensions that are leading people to get out 419 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 1: in the streets in ways that we certainly haven't seen. 420 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: And I think, you know, the the the other part 421 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 1: of it is like the people that are starting to 422 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: push back, Like there there's a lot of writing about how, 423 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: especially a lot of like sort of middle class Chinese 424 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: people are beginning to like really understand just the unchecked 425 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: power of the state because this has been going on 426 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: for like three years now and without any sign of things, 427 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: you know, abating, and right now, like the government has 428 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: done things like all right, you know what will ease 429 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: some of the restrictions as a way to kind of 430 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,400 Speaker 1: keep things from boiling over. They've even like sent college 431 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: students home early for their breaks because a lot of 432 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: the demonstrations are happening at universities, so they figure, oh, 433 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: if we send them home for break, they're less likely 434 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: to congregate and begin demonstrating again. So they're trying to 435 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: do these little things to bring the like sort of 436 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: temperature down. But it's clear that a lot of the 437 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 1: people are now sort of in this space where they're 438 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: absolutely unable to act like they can endure any of 439 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: this anymore. And that's what's and I think for the 440 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: people who are like saying like, oh, this could lead 441 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: to regime change, but let's let's not get ahead of 442 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 1: ourselves here, Like the China has quite literally been preparing 443 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: for mass demonstrations for decades, and just as a matter 444 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: of like policy, they there there's they know they have 445 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: to allow for a little bit of room for people 446 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: to just blow some steam off in order to try 447 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: and keep like stay stay in control. So it's, uh, 448 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: it's it's something that's really interesting to look at because 449 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: it's just like many other situations we've seen around the 450 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: world where these uprisings come out organically because of people's 451 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: inability to support themselves, the you know, overreach of the government, 452 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: and and then you end up with like this truly 453 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: like you know, far reaching group of people who are 454 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,919 Speaker 1: like advocating for own well being. So yeah, so it's 455 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 1: a wild situation right there. Yeah, they I mean, the 456 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: the level to which they have like techno dictatorship is 457 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: just like that. My first thought when seeing the pictures 458 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: of the people protesting was just you know, admiration and 459 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: just being like kind of been awe of the bravery 460 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: because that's a place where people just disappear, like you 461 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: just get to jail for you know, saying anything for 462 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: like putting up a picture of Winnie the Pooh because 463 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: she jimping it thinks that Winnie the Pooh looks too 464 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: much like him, Yeah, or people insult him with that image. 465 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's like, you know, I mean you look 466 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: at a lot of the other things that like you've seen, 467 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if you've seen like footage of like 468 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: mash like drone spring of like chemicals to try and 469 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: like disinfect cities and like there is a lot of 470 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: technological know how going into this stuff. But I think, 471 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: you know, I around and I'm always hartened to see 472 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: even though obviously the circumstances in which people are like 473 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 1: sort of getting into in touch with like their outrage 474 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: or sense of what is owed to them. You know, 475 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: I just feel like it's we're like in this situation 476 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: where it's not just it's not just limited to one country, 477 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: where the situation is the same for many people. I 478 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: think many people can look at this and say, I'm 479 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 1: in a situation where I don't think my wages are 480 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: high enough and I feel like my labor is being exploited. 481 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: I also don't agree with like a lot of these 482 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: policies that are you know, supposedly meant to benefit like 483 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: myself or give me rights. In fact, I feel like 484 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 1: I have less rights, and like watching this evolve in 485 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: certain places just kind of it's in that moment, I mean, 486 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: the thing that it feels like, you know, protests and 487 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: you know, movements around the world have in common as 488 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: like human beings who are like being told by people 489 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 1: in power or the wealthy people in power. I guess that, like, 490 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: you know, it's not raining when it is raining or 491 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: you know, just like being told like that what you're 492 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: seeing happen. I'm like, what's evident to you is not happening. 493 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: And I do feel like that is increasingly hard, too 494 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: hard to manage when when people have the ability to 495 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: like kind of communicate with one another. But y and 496 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: and then all. I mean, in this case it's to 497 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,199 Speaker 1: control COVID, but just caging human beings and making them 498 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: stay in a in a cage is a bad policy. 499 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: Maybe revisit that one. It reminded me of the World Cup. 500 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: What did you watch, like the stuff about like the 501 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: people who built the World Cup stadiums where it's like 502 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: that type of control over people. I'm like, oh, this 503 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 1: is a massive labor issue. And then what the Right 504 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: does in America is then they like point, They'll be like, 505 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 1: oh America is like the rail strike. Who cares about that? 506 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 1: Like look at the people in China and they like 507 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: bad faith read it and like no, no, you can 508 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: have solidarity for all people depending on what their situation is. 509 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 1: It's always such a that's like the Right America loves 510 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: to do that. We're like, oh, yeah, Lebron, do you 511 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: care about factory workers? In China. I'm like, do you 512 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: know you're writing this on your iPhone? Yeah? Yeah, that's stuff. 513 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: Oh my god, so infuriating. Yeah. Alright, Well, speaking of 514 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: kind of the mainstream culture in the United States, I 515 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: wanted to talk about just something. So there's this new 516 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 1: George Saunders book. George Saunders wrote Civil War, Land and 517 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: Bad Decline and Tenth of December, and it's like a 518 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: very lauded novelist and fiction writer. I think he won 519 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: the Award for Lincoln in the Bardo, which is I 520 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 1: was not able to write that because it just opens 521 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: with like all these wrenching passages about like child children dying, 522 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: and I just can't do that ship when I have children, 523 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: So I I couldn't make it through that one. Beautifully written, 524 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: and he's a he's a really good writer. I really 525 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: like Civil War, Land and Bad Decline. And he has 526 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: a new series of short stories coming out. It's his 527 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: first and nine years and it's like listening all these 528 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: interviews and media appearances and being heralded as like a 529 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 1: big moment in literature for serious people. But it's a 530 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: lot of the stories are grappling with America, like Trumpian America, 531 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: post Trump America, and it just seems to be a 532 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: subject that he's incapable of writing and thinking about in 533 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: a way that's like coherent and interesting. And I think 534 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: it's like the way that he's unable to do it 535 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: kind of solidifier, like crystallized some of the stuff that 536 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: I think we've seen over the past six years with 537 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: the way that the mainstream media and like mainstream culture 538 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: has had a hard time with it. And it kind 539 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: of comes back to this this central idea that he's 540 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: said a bunch of times. Like so he wrote he 541 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 1: wrote this piece in twenty seventeen for The New York 542 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 1: Or that was like he went to a couple of 543 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 1: Trump rallies and like just kind of wrote about what 544 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: he saw there. And I remember being very excited because 545 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: I was like, Wow, they got like one of the 546 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: best writers to write about, you know, this phenomenon that 547 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: we're seeing, Like Trump had just been inaugurated and was 548 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: still like doing all these rallies and people were just 549 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 1: screaming about like wanting to hang the media and you know, 550 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: just being overtly racist, and like his I remember like 551 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: it just being a fucking slug to get through and 552 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: also just like nothing that he said really sticking, and 553 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: it his central thesis seemed to be like this isn't America, 554 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: Like this is like America is a good place, and 555 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: Trump has come in from the outside, and is this 556 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: like foreign adjutant that has like caused people to forget 557 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: who they are. And I think that's also a good 558 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: summary of like kind of what I've seen in the 559 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: mainstream media at least like and that I was, you know, 560 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: and Trump was running for president. I was listening to 561 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: that podcast keeping it six hundred with that ended up. 562 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: It was like the proto Crooked Media podcast. It was 563 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: like the guys from the Obama administration and they were 564 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: talking to political consultants and they were they called people 565 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: who are worried Trump could win Bedwetters and just were like, 566 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: this guys, this is this is a joke. This guy's 567 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: this guy's an idiot. Nobody's going to vote for this idiot. 568 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 1: And since that time, you know, some of us have 569 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: recognized that there are major problems with America that are 570 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 1: going completely ignored and unaddressed by the mainstream media, and 571 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: that that's where that anger is coming from, and that's 572 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 1: why Trump should have been taken seriously, and that's where 573 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: he continues to be effective. Like I feel like this 574 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: is where you see the kind of just everybody keeps 575 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: going back to this idea that like, well, we're gonna 576 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: get him with this one statement and and it's gonna 577 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: be it's gonna be over for him, and you know 578 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: that then people will come out of their trance. And 579 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 1: you know, even even as like fascism has popped up 580 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: from our like most popular rapper at the time Trump 581 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 1: was elected and from their technocratic ubermanch who was like 582 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,959 Speaker 1: supposed to solve the problems we were facing with climate 583 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: change by being like real world Tony Stark, Like that 584 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: guy's a fascist now and they're still in a world 585 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: where like these are isolated problems that were caused by 586 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: this Trump guy being being a real jerk. And like, 587 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: I keep thinking about Colbert and the fact that like 588 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: he went from during the Bush administration being like our 589 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: greatest satirist to being like a late night talk show 590 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: host whose best joke about Trump was like calling him 591 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: Putin's cock holster or like that was the one that 592 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: like most people were like, yeah, God, is that yeah? 593 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: And with what Yeah, So Jacobin did a good like 594 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: Jacobin reviewed his new series of short stories. I haven't 595 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: read them yet, but just in looking at them, it's 596 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: like it kind of encapsulates I think, what what the 597 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: issue is, and like how how they're seeing this issue 598 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: like they're One of his stories in his new book 599 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: is about a dystopian America where an elderly unhoused man 600 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: has been like brainwashed by the government into saying like 601 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: but like the brainwashed version of this guy is meant 602 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: to be a version of like a Trump supporter. It's 603 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: called Elliott Spencer. The story is, and he's like had 604 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: his mind wiped and been reprogrammed with simplistic talking points, 605 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: and you know, the Jack Ben writer kind of points 606 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: out that this it If the shouting rally goers are brainwashed, 607 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: then they don't really mean what they say. And that's 608 00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: the thing he keeps coming back to, is like they 609 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 1: really mean that. Like in his New Yorker profile, he's like, 610 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: they Americans are good and they've just been corrupted by 611 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: this outside influence. And meanwhile, so like as I was 612 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 1: reading this summary of his piece about like brainwashed unhoused 613 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: man who has his mind wife, like meanwhile, in the 614 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: news that day, the New York Times reported on the 615 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: fact that there's a new law that says armed police 616 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: officers and the NYPD, who by the way, are very 617 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:33,240 Speaker 1: fond of inadvertently in quotes, shooting and killing poor people, 618 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: can just determine someone is mentally ill, like they have 619 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: access to the precods and just cage them even if 620 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: they're not a danger. Just giving first of all, the 621 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: like granting oneself the power of foresight seems to be 622 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 1: a trend in this version of fascism. Like we were 623 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: talking about how effective altruism people are, Like what we 624 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 1: actually know what's going to be a problem in you know, 625 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,800 Speaker 1: three thousand years, and that's what we're investing our money in, 626 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: and not climate change. But like the n YPD giving 627 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 1: themselves the power of foresight in order to allow them 628 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: to just claim whoever they want is mentally ill and 629 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 1: might later pose a danger and like cage them is 630 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 1: you know, it's a dystopian reality, Like why would you 631 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 1: need to create a dystopian reality in that just report 632 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: just describe our world at present? Yeah, and which I 633 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: don't know. I also was thinking about the John Millaney metaphor, 634 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 1: like the these are like things that stick out to 635 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 1: me from the like Trump administration and like the jokes 636 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: that people people were like, oh, comedies canna be so 637 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: good during the Trump administration, and like John Mullaney had 638 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: that one where he was like, Trump's like a horse 639 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: got it loose in a hospital. And in this case, 640 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 1: like America is supposed to be an orderly hospital and 641 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: Trump is like this outside chaotic agent. But I don't know, 642 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. It was probably inadvertent, but came from 643 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 1: like his subconscious that it's interesting that he chose a 644 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 1: hospital because again, American hospitals don't actually take care of 645 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: you if you don't have a job. That I think 646 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: that's what it is. We're all about these concepts without 647 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: actually reckoning with what the realities are. You know, thinks 648 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,839 Speaker 1: so much of his inability to like grapple with what's 649 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: happening is because he's firmly existing in this version of 650 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 1: America where he's like, yeah, bad stuff happened, but that's 651 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 1: over and it's not bad stuff is the fucking d 652 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,720 Speaker 1: n A of this country. And because we haven't reckoned 653 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 1: with it, it's just gonna keep popping back up in 654 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 1: these weird ways because we've never reckoned with it so 655 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 1: that it's it. And I think that's why it's interesting too, 656 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 1: Like you were saying, is some people have figured out 657 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 1: for a while America's like, yeah, I've based on what 658 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: I've read, this place didn't sound great for people like me. 659 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 1: It's the onset, And then there are others who are 660 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 1: able to kind of just separate themselves from I think 661 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: like this happens in so many countries, especially ones that 662 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: started off as like violent, like like colonies. It's just 663 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: easier to like kind of forget that it's built on 664 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: these like really violent transgressions and to not reckon with 665 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 1: that and then like realize that it's like echoing into 666 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: the future. It's just I think it's a it's a 667 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 1: bit ignorant, Yeah, And it just it just seems like 668 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 1: any version of America that attempts to grapple with Trump 669 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 1: is m that doesn't take that into account, like is 670 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: just going to be perpetuating the problem, which is that 671 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,839 Speaker 1: Trump and the far right are the only people who 672 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 1: are willing to acknowledge that the current system of corporate 673 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:50,280 Speaker 1: rule and no healthcare don't work and aren't just or decent. 674 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: And they acknowledge that in the service of a grift. 675 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 1: But that makes sense because the only thing that you're 676 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: alive allowed to say and like gain traction with in 677 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 1: America is like whatever is going to make someone money, 678 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 1: and drifting makes people a lot of money, as we're 679 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: seeing with crypto, So like that's you know that they'll 680 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 1: allow it. The thing they won't allow is just like 681 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: criticism that gets it like the very foundation and acknowledges 682 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,800 Speaker 1: that there are still these these massive fucking problems that 683 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: this is highlighting the fact that we've never really addressed 684 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: these problems. Yeah. The denial part though, too is like 685 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: away people absolve themselves from having to do anything too. 686 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: You know, if if George Saunders is like, if you 687 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: weren't for this Trump guy, we'd all be fine. That 688 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 1: just means the work is Trump just has to go. 689 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: That's the work in that scenario. The work is we 690 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 1: just don't need Trump when the work is we have 691 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:55,359 Speaker 1: to actually all be like collectively moving in the same 692 00:38:55,440 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: direction for like the betterment of society and rappling with 693 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: these like really heavy topics and knowing like, well, what's 694 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:08,360 Speaker 1: my what's my part in perpetuating this, uh any given 695 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: system of oppression? What's my part in that? Because if 696 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 1: I'm able to just say, these fucking Republicans, we then 697 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 1: guess what, I have no work to do because it's 698 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: all of them. And I think that's a really that's 699 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: a really dangerous like subconscious thing that Americans do to 700 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 1: themselves to like keep themselves from you know, putting in 701 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: or being a little more bringing a little more awareness 702 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: to the things that need work. But like that that 703 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 1: is where the you know that that's why we like 704 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: probably the number one subject on this podcast has become 705 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 1: like the mainstream media like myth and just like you know, 706 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: having the wool like pulling just covering ship up, like 707 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: the you know, George Saunders probably reads the New York 708 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 1: Times and like the New York Times the day of 709 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: that Eric Adams like new NYPD thing they their article 710 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 1: like doesn't talk about inequality or the real estate industry 711 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 1: causing homelessness. When they covered the this like new PRECOG program, 712 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,240 Speaker 1: they treated as like, you know, it's a desperate solution 713 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: because homelessness is out of control, and you know, they 714 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: just ignore the structural causes. And so that's what it's 715 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,800 Speaker 1: like that that feels like such a important and foundational 716 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:29,280 Speaker 1: problem that is kind of going unaddressed because the mainstream 717 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 1: media is the mainstream media. But yeah, I don't know. 718 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: There's an op ed in the New York Times. I 719 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: know what white voters see in herschel locker. Yeah, yeah, 720 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 1: I think that's why podcast like this one are are 721 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:46,359 Speaker 1: like important. I don want to blow too much smoke, 722 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 1: but it's like, oh, if the mainstream media is not 723 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 1: going to give us like the actual narrative about like 724 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: how the real stage, how the real estate business is 725 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,360 Speaker 1: causing homelessness, we need to go to third party sites, 726 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: and we need to make the third party media, and 727 00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 1: we need to make sure the third party media that 728 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 1: they're going to is like the world's dumbest people who 729 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: are fascists. It's like smart, empathetic people who like I 730 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 1: want to do the work. And with Trump stuff, it's like, oh, 731 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 1: if you for me, it's like, oh, the best way 732 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: to defeat Trump is to make the opposite side make 733 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 1: everyone's lives so much better that they look at Trump like, oh, 734 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,800 Speaker 1: that guy's an idiot who never got did anything for me? 735 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: Offer me healthcare, offer me college. Like a guy worked 736 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 1: with I convinced him to be a Bernie Guy in 737 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: like twenty minutes.

It's it's that's and that's what's so fucked up, right, 743 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,879 Speaker 1: is because you have one. The Democrats are like, oh, yeah, 744 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: we could make people's lives better, but they're making it 745 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: so easy for us to do.

But there 807 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 1: are these structural things in place of the Washington Post 808 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,720 Speaker 1: being owned by Jeff Bezos, for instance.
