So, um, that's 87 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: pretty great. That is some true. Yeah, that's privileged. But 88 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: also like, we have got to stop building up white 89 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: man to think he can just do that.

And tone deaf 102 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: and just cultural appropriation what everyone is telling you not 103 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: to do.

Thirty eight percent of Americans is trending. Uh. 114 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: That is trending because a new pole is showing that 115 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: thirty percent of Americans approved of the job Trump did 116 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: with coronavirus and the past two weeks of protests, and uh, 117 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: I think it's fifty two percent disapprove um something. It's 118 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: an all time uh or it's the lowest it's been 119 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: for over a year, which makes me feel slightly better. 120 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: At the same time, I don't know who like the 121 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,719 Speaker 1: the fact that they're thirty eight percent of Americans who 122 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: are still like living in that separate of a reality 123 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: from me is concerning. Yeah enough that are like I 124 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: don't know I was okay, so I have no sense 125 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: of anything else. Yeah, so yeah, well we'll see how 126 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: this plays out. UM. One another trend that's happening is 127 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: K pop fans are using their internet powers for good. 128 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: So let's started with us. I watched Dallas app UM 129 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: where uh it's basically a snitch app, like an app 130 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: that made it very user friendly to snitch on people 131 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: who are protesting in the city of Dallas. And instead 132 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: of getting photos and videos of citizens committing crimes, uh, 133 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: the Dallas p D received a bunch of short clips 134 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: of bts and is it it's or I t z y. 135 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how you pronounce that red velvet, But 136 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: basically K pop fans flooded the app with clips of 137 00:09:53,440 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: their favorite performers and uh, at least temporarily s down 138 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: the app like it was so whelmed what we should 139 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: be doing. It's like when the FBI tweeted out like, 140 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: do you have video of any protesters? And it's like 141 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: or like, just like citizens who are creating an endangerous, 142 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: dangerous environment at protests and it's like, yeah, flood them 143 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: with police brutality videos. Here are your citizens who are 144 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: causing the problems. Here are your citizens who are beating 145 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: up people for peacefully protesting. Yeah, that's what we gotta do. Yeah, 146 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: they're They're also on on Twitter using hashtags like white 147 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: lives Matter, All lives Matter, Blue Lives Matter, and hashtag 148 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: maga on post featuring and I was presed to learn this. 149 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: Uh Korean pop sensations. Um, yeah, so that similar tactic 150 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: in all of their you know, human rights efforts. But 151 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: it's effective because the hashtags become useless. Trump was right. 152 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: I saw trending over the weekend and when I checked 153 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: it out, it was a lot of people talking shit 154 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: about that idea and also Korean K pop clips. And 155 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: apparently this isn't the first time K pop fans have 156 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: gotten political. They also supported protests in Bangladesh following a 157 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: bus crash that killed two students. They helped fund school 158 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: lunches in the UK. The Chilean government even blamed K 159 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 1: pop fans for their part in supporting the mass protests 160 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. And meanwhile, on the other side of that, 161 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: Q and On is becoming even more mainstream. Relating to 162 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,959 Speaker 1: that thirty eight percent um, there was apparently a q 163 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: and on channel I'm roku for two full weeks before 164 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: it was noticed and removed.

People? 197 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: There's so many people retweet it. Yeah, it's it's more 198 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: popular and more like widely believed that I think we 199 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: realize all the people who have been cut off from 200 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: their family, They're just like, this is my family now, um, 201 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: you know, they get so K pop stars took on 202 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: Q and On using their hashtags for more clips and 203 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: photos of K pop. But Q and Honors took that 204 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: as further evidence that the deep state was coming after them, 205 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: so and that that seems to be what is so 206 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: uh powerful about Q and On is that they will 207 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: use information that gets in the way of their message 208 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: or information that disproves their theory and take that and 209 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: like turn it into evidence for their theory. It's really um, 210 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: they just don't all It's like a machine that is 211 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: just DESI mind to craft more theories based on whatever, 212 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: uh you know, raw information you feed into it. And 213 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: so there's literally nothing that can be done to stop it. 214 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: It seems like uh so value and effort though by 215 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: the k pop stands, and uh I do love I 216 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: love the work they're doing and anyway they can undermine 217 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: the attempts by the police to interfere with these marches. 218 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: And actually I want to crack mysel. Let's do it, 219 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: I said earlier. I clicked on an anonymous hashtag and 220 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: and say a que anonymous Anonymous is separate from Q 221 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: and On.

But 224 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: then there were like all these weird things where people 225 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: think it might not actually be Anonymous. Who knows, I 226 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: don't know what anonymous is, and like it's easy to 227 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: it would be easy for Q and On to take 228 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: Anonymous and be like, and we're for Q and On now, 229 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: because yeah, well the original Anonymous was predated Q and 230 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: On right.
