Did you know that Penn 230 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: Badgeley and Adam Brody are not the same person. I. 231 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: I had just fused them as the same person in 232 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: my head because Dan and Adam was this character's name 233 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: adamant so Dan. Penn Badgley played Dan and gossip Girl. 234 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: Adam Brody played in d O C. And they were 235 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: both like the literary kind of nerdy character. And I 236 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: had absolutely completely fused them in my brain. Uh. And 237 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 1: then Adam Brody was on uh Comedy Bang Bang the 238 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: other week, and I was like picturing Penn Badgley the 239 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: whole time.

Right, Zukes and Penn, how is? 248 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: How's the OC holding up? I was not like I 249 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: watched a couple episodes when it first came out. I 250 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: never really got fully into it. I loved it when 251 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: it first came out because Seth Cohen, I was close 252 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: to that age, and he was into indie rock and 253 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: comic books and representation matters as we all know what. 254 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: I had never seen someone into Death Cab and The 255 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: X Men on TV before, so an awkward Jewish kid 256 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: into indie rock and comic books. So I found that 257 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: to be important in my development. But not that it's 258 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: not bad honestly, Like, it's still pretty enjoyable. Like they're 259 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: all very good actors and they're having fun mostly and 260 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: there's some fun dialogue there, but it's like it's it 261 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: has the problems at any show that has to do 262 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: twenty four episodes a season, like they mostly used to 263 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: do um have, which is like, how do you fucking 264 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: keep a show? How do you keep things going for 265 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: twenty episodes? So there's all these ups and downs, so 266 00:15:56,320 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: like everyone's breaking up every two episodes, And yeah, I 267 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: don't know. Some murders too, right, don't they run into 268 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: like the gotta keep heightening it to the point that like, 269 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: are not murders, but people die and like it goes happens. 270 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: That's the only thing I've never seen the o C before, 271 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: and I've only yeah, dude, I did, uh kind of no, 272 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: But I would say of the country, would would you, Andy, 273 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: Could I obliging man in the year of our Lord, 274 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: one who has never seen the o C cast eyes 275 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: upon this master work and have an effect that is positive?

And I say kind of 280 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: in the sense that like Hollywood today is like they 281 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: love of hiring. It's it's like companies, but it's still 282 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: like yeah, but it's still like everyone behind the scenes 283 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: is white, so you're still getting a white perspective. Is 284 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: just now said through the mouth of a black person. 285 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: Mostly there's, you know, obviously a handful of exceptions.

I mean, you know, 385 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,239 Speaker 1: at the height of my consumption of these things was 386 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: probably around the time Ricky Martin's Cup of Life, the 387 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: theme for France World Cup, was charting on the charts. 388 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 1: So so what if we're ranking the tutsie pops?

I walked, I walked outside, 394 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: and I throw the chocolate straight in the sewer. Lemon 395 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: and nocolet, that's those are two flavors that barely go together. 396 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 1: But Lemon's great, okay. Leon hard candy, yeah, I like 397 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: lemon starbursts. That's the one lemon candy I like. I 398 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: don't like like a lot of lemon hard candy. Now, 399 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:28,959 Speaker 1: these ships got nineteen different, eighteen flavors. I mean, come on, 400 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: don't see this is this is where the kids got it. 401 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: They're just getting They're going out of control over there 402 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: over tutsie roll. Yeah, because these days they you know, 403 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: with their YouTube, they're they're used to options, They're used 404 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: to being able to just figure out whatever they want. 405 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,880 Speaker 1: I've had enough. Only the only good thing about capitalism 406 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: is diversifying the flavors of tutsi roll pops. Have you 407 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: tried the new ones? Have you tried the new ones? 408 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: I'm on an adventure. I'm on a journey, buddy, these 409 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 1: pops minis. Listen at what they have now, watermelon, cherry, 410 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: green apples, strawberry, kiwi, banana, raspberry, grape fruit punch, tangerine, mango, chocolate, orange, 411 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: black cherry, BlackBerry, lemon, strawberry, blue raspberry, and pomegranate. Banana 412 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 1: probably outpaces the candy made in banana flavor, Like the 413 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: actual banana is so far superior, in my opinion, to 414 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: every banana flavored thing that has ever been created. Not 415 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 1: the banana jello pudding pop. Okay, banana pudding is actually 416 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: pretty fucking good, but I I think I always assumed 417 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: that had like banana period in there. Anyways, we have 418 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: to talk about some less important stuff. So let's take 419 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: a quick break and we'll be right back. And we're back, 420 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: and we are following the continued just downward spiral of 421 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: the concern pervative just mind escape as they have to 422 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: now deal with hating corporations.

And that's 488 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: where we're not like the GOP, which is a death 489 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: cult because where you're willing your endgame is to die 490 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 1: the second it starts working with our profits. We got 491 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: to figure some other ship out because our god is money, 492 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: not this other ideology which is also a death cult. 493 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:55,479 Speaker 1: But with it it's like slightly more lungevit a different god, right, 494 00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: how do you say his name? His name? But guys 495 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: think so like obviously like the GOP s watchword of 496 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: their faith is white supremacy. And I find like when 497 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: you try to figure out what their actions, if you 498 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: just say like, they will do anything they can to 499 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: uphold white supremacy over profits, over anything else, and they 500 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: will do whatever they can to uphold white supremacy. And 501 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: I don't you think that, like a lot of corporations 502 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: are are similar, but they just don't want to be 503 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: as vocal about it. Yeah, I mean, at the end 504 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,719 Speaker 1: of the day, like they're not going to be like 505 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: raw Ryan socialism from like the you know, the fucking 506 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: Coca Cola Instagram account. So there's definitely a line of 507 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 1: where the progress will halt, even for corporations, right where 508 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: it becomes an existential threat to their business. There. So 509 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: I think they still are still guided by things like 510 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 1: we gotta sell ship and if we if people think 511 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: we support this stuff, we can we sell less ship. 512 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: So let's at least do make sounds about it. That's 513 00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: why I like, at the end of the day, I'm 514 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: not sure what the funk any of these companies will 515 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: actually do to ensure these things, aside from giving themselves 516 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: the optical cover of being like, well, we got together. 517 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: I remember I missed like the part of the last 518 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: round at Augusta to be on this call, So don't 519 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: say I wasn't all in on these voting rights things. 520 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: Let it happen. But like, like there was a report 521 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: like a week or two ago maybe about how Hollywood 522 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: misses out on I think it's like I forgot what 523 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: the number one point six billion right without having like 524 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: more black people. Yes, exactly, And they're because they're so 525 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: dedicated to white supremacy, even if they maybe they don't 526 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: say maybe they don't understand it. Maybe let's say they're 527 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: ideologically dumb and they don't really get that that's what 528 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: they're doing. But there probably are a bunch of people 529 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: that do, like they obviously care more about white elites 530 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: than they do about making money, or like maybe there's 531 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: like some kind of weird threshold where they're like, well, 532 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: we won't go about below this threshold of money will 533 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: maintain white supremacy as long as we're making like the 534 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: three that we have to make every quarter. We'll see, 535 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: because that's what's interesting, Like when McKinsey hands you up 536 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: a report saying, hey, fellow capitalists, you're leaving fucking money 537 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: on the table, Like, we'll see. I mean, I think 538 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: the effects of that report, I think will be borne 539 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 1: out over the next year and a half or so 540 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: to see like what changes, But I don't know. It 541 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 1: seems like that was like the last compelling argument. It's like, 542 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: it's you're leaving money in the billions on the table 543 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: by doing this. It's corruption that is built into the 544 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: system to maintain a status quo that benefits the people 545 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: who are are currently in power. Who are you know, 546 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: white people who have benefited from what supremacist values, And 547 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: both companies and politicians like by design are supposed to 548 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: have to embrace and represent the beliefs of their consumers. 549 00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: But I feel like through sort of colluding together or 550 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: they've been able to not do that so that they 551 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: can uh kind of stay in power and keep the 552 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: status quo. But it's just about kind of finding new 553 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: ways to force their hand, it seems like. And now 554 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: over at the Federalist they are shifting their Supreme Court 555 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: pack in pants over there. They said, this is an 556 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: op ed that came out, um, and it's just shout 557 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: out to WANKA for kind of compiling some of their 558 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: other headlines because it really it's fun when you read 559 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 1: it all together. But this headline came out said it's 560 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: not okay for corporations to take away our freedom just 561 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: because they're not government. I'm sorry what y'all were circle 562 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: jerking around hobby Lobby and Citizens United and all this 563 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: other ship. But now you're like, what are to understand 564 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:55,959 Speaker 1: that headline? So that just because they're not government, is 565 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: it's that they think I don't know that. The idea 566 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: is that who the hell do they think they are government? 567 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: They're the ones that get to do racism officially or 568 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: whatever or unofficially, so that they want to change this, okay, 569 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: I think is separation of church and state. This is operations, 570 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 1: separation of corporations and state. It's basically like, you're a 571 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 1: person if you are riding with our agenda, but if 572 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: we find you on the other end, if we're now 573 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: diametrically opposed, then oh funk all of you. And that's 574 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: that's Mr McConnell's whole thing. Remember, his whole thing is 575 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 1: just the blind acquiring and use of power for his 576 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,360 Speaker 1: own ends and for the gop elites own ends, and 577 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: that that's it. And if you align with that, then 578 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 1: you're with them. And if you're don't align with that, 579 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: then you're against them. And that's the only principle that 580 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 1: I think it's it's such an easy way to figure 581 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: out these people we believe not about governing. They're just like, 582 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to massive is much bullshit before my 583 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: corpse rots and expires, and then I'll look back at 584 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: all my disappointed descendants who are like changing their last 585 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 1: name because of me. But this, I just want to 586 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: read parts of this fucking op ed because first they're 587 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: starting to be like, it's like, sound this alarm. Like 588 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: imagine a world where CEO's get together and like set 589 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,280 Speaker 1: agendas based on their like business interests, because just purely 590 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: because they dominate the public square. It goes on maybe 591 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 1: at a place called Davos or or some weird place 592 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,479 Speaker 1: like that. So this this is what the opped says. Quote. 593 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: If this works, the pressure on voting laws will be 594 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: tomorrow's pressure on gun laws, and next on immigration laws, 595 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 1: abortion laws, and education laws. Corporations which for decades lobbied 596 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: merely on issues pertinent to their financial interests, have now 597 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 1: begun to capitalize on aggressive wokesm Soon we'll corporate boardrooms 598 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: will be weighing in on every facet of American life. 599 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: That's the existential threat to American liberty. Flying under the radar, 600 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: I mean I think this is good because somebody was 601 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,959 Speaker 1: going to take the populist position, like people kept calling 602 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,839 Speaker 1: Trump populus, but he wasn't actually populous because everything he 603 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: did was too funk over the the little guy and 604 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: you know benefits. It was faux populist, but like not 605 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: even really because racism isn't populism. It's not it's not good. 606 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: That was like Bannons thing. I guess it was just 607 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 1: like kind of like living in Bannon's uh feces. Yeah, 608 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: flood the lane with ship that was his metaphor actually 609 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,240 Speaker 1: flop float we like to flood the zone with ship. 610 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: But this feels like they're going explicitly elitist. Now they're 611 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: like what they're going to do the things that are 612 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:54,399 Speaker 1: good for people just because the people want it and 613 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to listen to and like all the 614 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: things that they mentioned are it feels very much like 615 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 1: things that they're on the wrong side of. Like people 616 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: want more gun control, they have put in institutional barriers 617 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: so that we can't get more gun control. People want 618 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:18,399 Speaker 1: better schools, put in institutional barriers. I think they don't 619 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,720 Speaker 1: realize ideologically that this road ends with like the party 620 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: just disintegrating at a certain point because all the ideas 621 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,319 Speaker 1: are so unsustainable. And I think now that people are 622 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: off ramping from them, they're like, oh, what's going on now? 623 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 1: They don't know, and they're like are we are we 624 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 1: burning up in the atmosphere because there's a whole other 625 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 1: pul saying just how far off and we this was 626 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 1: apparent to everyone, but how far off Republicans are just 627 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: in general from the mainstream, just on race, Like how 628 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,839 Speaker 1: so wrong they consistently are that. That's also another thing, 629 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 1: like repulsing certain business interest too, because like you can't 630 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: you can't even like these aren't ideas like you can 631 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: have anymore. But yeah, when public opinion starts turning against 632 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: these right wing freaks, they always take a position where 633 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,879 Speaker 1: there's a particle of something leftist and real in there, 634 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 1: which is like, I don't want corporations having a say 635 00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: in anything, right you fuckers are the ones that like 636 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 1: push citizens united and everything and like back in the 637 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: like when was the eighteen hundreds when they first said 638 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 1: that when the Supreme Court first ruled that corporations were 639 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: people like you right wing freaks are the ones that 640 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: I've been pushing this line for over a century, and 641 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: now it's turning against you. And you want to say 642 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 1: that corporations shouldn't have any say, and I agree with you, 643 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 1: corporations shouldn't have any say, let's go in public life. 644 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 1: But you're only doing it because they're actually like pushing 645 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 1: something that is like kinder. You only turn against them 646 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 1: when they were like, hey, maybe we shouldn't be so 647 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: maybe it's bad for our image for us to like 648 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: bite the throats out of all orphans, or yeah, inhibit 649 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 1: people to vote explicitly black people and try and there's 650 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: no way it can be. Like I don't know if 651 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: I think it's about voters confidence and secure. No, no 652 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,439 Speaker 1: it isn't. So now they're forced to, you know, make 653 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 1: these decisions. Just I just want to read a couple 654 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: other past federalist headlines because just to know where they're at. Normally, 655 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,799 Speaker 1: it's things like, quote, how the free market promotes tolerance, diversity, 656 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 1: and inclusion far better than socialism does. Another one, let's 657 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 1: deregulate everyone instead of applying outdated rules to new ideas. Huh, 658 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: how capitalism is better for the environment than degree This 659 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 1: is this is the normal line that they tell. Yet 660 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: we get to this other section of the op ed 661 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 1: where they start being like, well, fuck man, libertarian free 662 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,720 Speaker 1: market ship is also bullshit where they say this quote. 663 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,839 Speaker 1: Yet many Republicans are in power appear to have fallen 664 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,760 Speaker 1: victim to this deception, often citing libertarian philosophy to justify 665 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 1: their decisions. This, however, is where libertarianism fails. What good 666 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: is the absence of a government mask mandate if private 667 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 1: businesses implement their own. What good is the absence of 668 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 1: a government vaccine passport if of it businesses implement their own? Okay, 669 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 1: see you later. Remember these people have no deeply held 670 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 1: values except amassing power. Everything boils down to that. They 671 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: will say whatever they can to get power and to 672 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: keep power and to wield power on the less powerful. 673 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 1: But yeah, and then they're they're doing things like but 674 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: that's your favorite track libertarianism in the free market. That's 675 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 1: how you that's what you pivot to when you're saying 676 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: being a normal Republicans to racist, Then you can do 677 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: that one. Oh and now that one's not good, Oh, 678 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 1: because it was never about any of that ship anyway exactly. 679 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,840 Speaker 1: And again, anybody who thinks like stupidity is the problem 680 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: those headlines were written by people who like went to 681 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: Harvard and Yale and like our by all all the metrics. 682 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: The people who are like these idiots, like it's just 683 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 1: dumb people voting for Trump, Like those are the people 684 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 1: who you're talking about in a lot of cases, Remember 685 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: the Capital insurrection is people we're all like bourgeois middle 686 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 1: class or upper middle class folks, and some and then 687 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 1: some like people bust in yeah off their time, Like 688 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 1: we're like, yeah, yeah, we can pay for some poor 689 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 1: other people to be here too, and we'll let them 690 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: do the rough stuff and we'll just cheer it on 691 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 1: outside to take themselves all the people that were in 692 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 1: the queue and non doc right, all right, let's take 693 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 1: another quick break.

She yells taser, Taser, taser as 698 00:41:56,440 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 1: she has a glock in her hand and then shoots 699 00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 1: him to death like a cheap code. You're like, I 700 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 1: said it in the body camp. I said, yeah, you 701 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 1: heard me. That's not, and the police are using that 702 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: as like accidental discharge. You really got a feel for 703 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: the lady.

Extra shut the funk up to Joe 707 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: Biden being like, well, we're waiting to see if it's 708 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: uh he I'll give him Mitch McConnell's voice at this point. 709 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 1: We're waiting to see if it was an accident or not. 710 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 1: But there's no Like, the thing he really zoomed in 711 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:44,720 Speaker 1: on is looting. M But anyways, the the the idea 712 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: that tasers and the fact that she was trying to 713 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 1: use a taser on somebody that had pulled over for 714 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: I guess either tags being out out of date or 715 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,359 Speaker 1: because he had a air freshener hanging from his rear 716 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 1: view mirror. Yeah, the fact that she was using a 717 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 1: taser on him like that, that seems to have been 718 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 1: become the focus with like The New York Times CNN. 719 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 1: While not common, officers have mistaken pistols for tasers, sometimes 720 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 1: with deadly outcomes. An officer use a gun instead of 721 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: a taser. How easy or hard is it to confuse 722 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,839 Speaker 1: a gun for a taser? This is CNN, So why 723 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: they this is the Sorry, I'm so sorry. This is 724 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:33,440 Speaker 1: just dry this stuff at this point, I don't know 725 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:38,280 Speaker 1: why any literally, like after the cops have been killing 726 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:42,320 Speaker 1: black men for how I mean centuries, but like literally 727 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 1: like in our like maybe what's the like modern error 728 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,800 Speaker 1: where we're we all kind of care about Ferguson is 729 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 1: like does it start? Yeah, like it all but yeah, 730 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,959 Speaker 1: I mean without giving that time like yes, since time immemorial. Sure, 731 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: but let's just say the last seven years perhaps are 732 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 1: like the real like like it's so obvious to us all, 733 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 1: and it's what have you ever listened to like an 734 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 1: interview with Noam Chomsky where people ask him about like 735 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 1: what should the US do here? What should blah blah 736 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: what you know whatever? They ask him this stuff and 737 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 1: he's just like, well, it's obvious blah blah. Like he 738 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: just says, well, it's like it's so self evan to him, 739 00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:26,320 Speaker 1: if like, abolish the police isn't self evident to everyone? 740 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 1: Right now, I don't know what to say to someone 741 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 1: and anyone who's not who doesn't come into that with uh, 742 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 1: come into like any reporter who was reporting on this, 743 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:40,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't have this as a self evident start to 744 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,360 Speaker 1: this discussion is just not to be taken seriously. I 745 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,760 Speaker 1: don't know how to take any news reports seriously. That 746 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 1: starts with the premise, is it easy to confuse a 747 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 1: taser with a handgun? It doesn't matter, It doesn't matter 748 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 1: if it's easy. It's not. First of all, it's not 749 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: like we color materials used for the like like trigger 750 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 1: like to they don't have the same trigger that like, 751 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: don't you have to cock a gun? Like don't you 752 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 1: have to take a safety off? Also, that just that 753 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 1: very question infers that the taser was a reasonable course 754 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 1: of action. But those people are it's not serious. They're 755 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 1: not serious. They're obviously not doing anything serious. They're not 756 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 1: doing anything newsworthy or journalistic. They are just stirring the pot, right. Yeah, 757 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 1: Well that's where you see that even for people who 758 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 1: don't realize it how white systemic, white supremacy has to 759 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 1: then use all of its mechanisms to protect itself, to 760 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 1: allow it from you know, protection from further analysis, for 761 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 1: people to realize how deep it runs and I think 762 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 1: for these people, they're like, no, I think this is 763 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 1: actually an interesting like let's just say for a second, right, 764 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,840 Speaker 1: these are just these like neoliberal journalists who are have 765 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 1: fully fucking drank the kool aid that we're in some 766 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:02,320 Speaker 1: post racial bullshit world, and they're like, no, I mean, seriously, 767 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 1: let's try and extend some empathy and let's just say 768 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,840 Speaker 1: like it's not common, but it has happened, and like 769 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 1: maybe we should just talk about that and just so 770 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: people understand without realizing the fact that you're introducing this 771 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 1: to the discourse is so fucked up and regressive and 772 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 1: has nothing to do with what the funk is happening. 773 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 1: If you were actually going to write something that was clear, 774 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 1: maybe talk about how tasers are bullshit, maybe talk about like, 775 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: how is this still happening? And I think it's weird 776 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: because you're empathize with Yeah, these these editorial room, these 777 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 1: boardrooms are just sort of like, don't bring up, don't 778 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 1: use white supremacy to explain white supremacy, do not do that. 779 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 1: As a news outlet, we refuse to do that. And 780 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 1: it's just so evident every single fucking headline that comes 781 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,919 Speaker 1: out that isn't an op ed where it takes someone 782 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 1: be like this is my opinion, but that ships, that 783 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 1: ship is clear as fucking data. People don't have to 784 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 1: be OpEd. It should be fucking front page news. So 785 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 1: a writer jam was kind of put together history on tasers. Uh, 786 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: you know, obviously also a deadly weapon of racial oppression. 787 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 1: Black people are three times more likely to be tased 788 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 1: by police than white people. The taser is a lethal weapon, 789 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 1: often resulting in fatalities, with police disproportionately killing black people. 790 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 1: But I think another like the technocrat aspect of it, 791 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:30,240 Speaker 1: like that Obama like technocratism, where like his two thousand 792 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 1: twelve election, they were like we used Facebook for our 793 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 1: for our purposes and like got reelected, and the media 794 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 1: was like, yes, sir, that's brilliant, you guys, we have 795 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,839 Speaker 1: solved everything with technology. I feel like that's built in 796 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,799 Speaker 1: here a little bit too, that like, well, we just 797 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:50,800 Speaker 1: create a safer option for shooting unarmed black men. And 798 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 1: even if the tasers themselves don't kill people, they frequently 799 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 1: malfunction and so the cops just shoot and kill the 800 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: person instead. Um Or used that someone having a taser 801 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 1: to be like, oh, that ship could kill so I 802 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 1: had to kill them because they had a taser. Like, 803 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:13,320 Speaker 1: what the fuck We've programmed these new uh robot police 804 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 1: dogs to not see race, right, not see uh. The 805 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 1: justification was like originally to curb shootings. Studies have found 806 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,399 Speaker 1: quote no evidence that using tasers reduces police use of firearms. 807 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:35,879 Speaker 1: It's just creates like a hotter atmosphere, like a more 808 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:41,399 Speaker 1: violent atmosphere. And they were literally created as a substitute 809 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 1: for cattle prods, which were being used by cops against 810 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:49,920 Speaker 1: black civil rights protesters in the sixties. And because the 811 00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 1: police literally said that they were hurting the civil rights 812 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 1: protesters while they described using the cattle prods. That was 813 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: pr boo boo for the racist police. And so they 814 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 1: created tasers and the inventor of taser. This is interesting. 815 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 1: The phrase taser comes from the novel that the NASA 816 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:19,320 Speaker 1: scientist was inspired by, called Tom Swift and his Electric Rifle. 817 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:22,359 Speaker 1: And then he just added in a because it was 818 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 1: easier to say rather than the teaser, yeah, rather than 819 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: the teaser in the book Tom Swift, who this was 820 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:34,880 Speaker 1: like a early twentieth century sci fi franchise. Yeah, I 821 00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 1: read this when I was a kid. Yeah, So he 822 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 1: brings his electric rifle to Africa, and it's a colonialist 823 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:46,359 Speaker 1: fantasy in which this white hero invents a new kind 824 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,720 Speaker 1: of gun and decides to test it out on quote, 825 00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 1: the dark continent, first hunting elephants and then battling the 826 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 1: African people, who the book describes as scarcely human. So 827 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 1: I don't remember that part when I was a kid. 828 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 1: It right, it's just so thoroughly, as with everything in 829 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:09,120 Speaker 1: American culture, like when you just fucking barely scratched the surface, 830 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,880 Speaker 1: it's just completely It wasn't like some NASA scientists like 831 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: I'm trying to find a way we could heat up 832 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,800 Speaker 1: some water out in space, and I stumbled upon this taste. 833 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:19,759 Speaker 1: And now it's like I read this book about a 834 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 1: little colonizer boy who wanted to tame the fucking savage 835 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,319 Speaker 1: people of Africa with his electric gun, and I said, oh, 836 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 1: I want to make the real life version of that 837 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 1: ship I saw in a racist book. Yes, and I 838 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:36,839 Speaker 1: was inspired. I was spurred to action by watching the 839 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:43,879 Speaker 1: police brutalized black civil rights activists. So this giant mac 840 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,719 Speaker 1: I've created to help police people is based on birth 841 00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 1: of a nation, right, what there weren't even mex in there. 842 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:54,080 Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know, you should read between the lines. So, uh, 843 00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 1: that's that's just a brief history of the humane option 844 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:58,919 Speaker 1: that people are like, well they were, I mean, it's 845 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 1: just an honest mistake. Uh. And the thing that we 846 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 1: have to be concerned about is all this looting, right 847 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 1: because it's about inanimate objects over black living bodies. These 848 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:18,680 Speaker 1: are unsous people. I'm really curious, you know, like what 849 00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:21,080 Speaker 1: what happens with the other thing when you see people 850 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 1: get taser stung? Like what happens to your brain when 851 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,480 Speaker 1: you get hit with that electricity? And also like you 852 00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 1: see videos where people are running at a full sprint 853 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,160 Speaker 1: and get hit with that taser and they just flopped down. 854 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 1: And if you've seen the fist fights, people get knocked 855 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 1: out and collapse and die from hitting their head on 856 00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:40,919 Speaker 1: the on the concrete because they're they're not rigid enough 857 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,600 Speaker 1: to break their fault. Like, I'm curious to know what 858 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 1: all these other the other ship we're not actually grouping 859 00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 1: into taser injury because it's not it's not often you 860 00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 1: just see someone like eat the taser and they're like, Okay, 861 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'll sit down and I'll cooperate. It's always 862 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:00,719 Speaker 1: very violent. Yeah, do they even keeps thetistics on any 863 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:03,120 Speaker 1: of that stuff, because it's obviously not in their interest 864 00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 1: to know what taser injuries and like, I guess you 865 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:10,399 Speaker 1: would call that stuff secondary taser injuries. I mean, they 866 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:15,480 Speaker 1: didn't even keep statistics on gun violence until a year ago, 867 00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 1: and even then it was like their hand was forced 868 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:21,040 Speaker 1: by journalists having to like do all of this like 869 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:25,800 Speaker 1: linking of different databases, because yeah, the the whole country 870 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 1: is just completely overrun by gun lobby and white supremacy. 871 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:34,840 Speaker 1: It's pretty wild. Can't there be like a private database 872 00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:36,879 Speaker 1: in the way that remember a couple of years ago, 873 00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:41,040 Speaker 1: there was the like scummy men in mediast that like 874 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:44,799 Speaker 1: excel sheet that women would pass around to make sure 875 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 1: that you didn't work with, like you know, creeps that 876 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 1: were editors and things like that. Would this be a 877 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 1: list of the only police who aren't racist and willing 878 00:52:56,640 --> 00:53:01,400 Speaker 1: to use white supremacists violence to old people? Sure, So 879 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, handful. I mean, there is a 880 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 1: two thousand eight journal study that says taser and taser 881 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 1: associated injuries a case series, and the abstract is basically saying, 882 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: like people need to realize. It's like it says taser 883 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: use theoretically reduces the risk of injury and death by 884 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 1: decreasing the use of lethal force, but we report a 885 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 1: spectrum of injuries sustained by four patients subdued with taser devices, 886 00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 1: like skull fractures, some kind of brain hemorrhage, breaking of 887 00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 1: the orbitals around your orbital floor, fracture, concussions, facial laceration. 888 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:36,239 Speaker 1: It's like all those other things that happened on the 889 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,200 Speaker 1: way down or depending on where you might get hit 890 00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:43,440 Speaker 1: with the taser. So it's just all fus nonsense and 891 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: they just shouldn't be armed absolutely. Yeah, That's why. That's 892 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,120 Speaker 1: why I find like all the debate that happens around 893 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 1: the stuff. That's why I like what I'm just like, 894 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 1: it's so like patently obvious at this point that like 895 00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 1: having these like secondary debates about like versus tastes or something. 896 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:04,040 Speaker 1: It's like, well, no, the basic debate is how like 897 00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 1: the basic debate for everyone that is serious about this stuff, 898 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:09,800 Speaker 1: it's like, how do we phase out policing in America 899 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:13,239 Speaker 1: and build up something that is more just and yeah 900 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: and wild is the answer and not a hundred out 901 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:21,000 Speaker 1: of a hundred questions about this country is support the 902 00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:26,920 Speaker 1: human beings that live here. That's it. The the idea 903 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,839 Speaker 1: of crime, as if crime is some kind of deficiency 904 00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 1: that occurs within people of color because they are jealous 905 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 1: of white people's WiFi is so fucked up and racist, 906 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,040 Speaker 1: rather than saying this is you know what happens when 907 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 1: you're left with very little options you have to survive. 908 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:47,799 Speaker 1: And then because we've criminalized poverty, Uh sorry, then now 909 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:49,919 Speaker 1: we found a way to put the failings of our 910 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:52,520 Speaker 1: lack of support for you into another industry where we 911 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,839 Speaker 1: can profit off of now incarcerating you because somebody's making 912 00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:58,879 Speaker 1: money off of this ship. And it's that simple, Like 913 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,719 Speaker 1: everything just sucking support people like people who feel supported 914 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 1: have less of a need to commit crimes to survive. 915 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:08,359 Speaker 1: By the way, have you guys ever seen a white 916 00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 1: supremacist that did not look like a morlock? Like I 917 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,120 Speaker 1: don't understand how, Like in the Q documentary, the Watkins 918 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,720 Speaker 1: is like, I don't understand how. You're like Ron Watkins 919 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 1: and you look in the mirror and you're like, yep, 920 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,399 Speaker 1: this is the peak, this is the peak of of 921 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 1: all humans, right right? Well, yeah, I always talk about 922 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 1: how I think the lie that they are living is 923 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:36,680 Speaker 1: very apparent to them, which makes them so hateful and 924 00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:39,560 Speaker 1: gives them like a lot of the energy that they 925 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 1: used to to carry into this ship is like they're 926 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 1: having to live that lie, try and tell that lie 927 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,360 Speaker 1: to themselves every morning when they look in the mirror, 928 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: and at a certain level they don't believe it. But 929 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:56,759 Speaker 1: I love that Freudian spice you're adding. Yeah, alright, let's 930 00:55:56,760 --> 00:56:00,439 Speaker 1: talk about Usher. There's there's some things being said about 931 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:03,880 Speaker 1: Usher Raymond online that I don't want to believe that 932 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 1: he uh, that he was tipping dancers at uh Sapphire 933 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:13,960 Speaker 1: dancers with money with his face on it. Mm hmm 934 00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:18,399 Speaker 1: fake a fake money. It looks great. I mean there 935 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 1: there has been a great deal of care put into 936 00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:26,480 Speaker 1: creating what money would look like. We're us sure the 937 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:30,040 Speaker 1: only president we had ever had, right, because it's we 938 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:33,000 Speaker 1: got ones, we got twenties, we got Hundo's uh and 939 00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 1: it's Usher all the way down. Yeah. And it all 940 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,840 Speaker 1: started when a dancer put on her I G story 941 00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:43,680 Speaker 1: like these three bills with ushers face on it, and 942 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:46,360 Speaker 1: the captain said, ladies, what would you do if you 943 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,439 Speaker 1: if you danced all night for Usher and he threw 944 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:53,879 Speaker 1: this and it's USh ushbucks. Okay. Then the next story 945 00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 1: says the money and the money does not have a 946 00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 1: trade in value whatsoever. L m ao, don't y'all think 947 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:01,520 Speaker 1: he should be asked on social media for this ship 948 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 1: and he was rightly, Everyone's like, oh no. And I 949 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: think while most of us would love to think that 950 00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:10,879 Speaker 1: Usher is so cheap that he would bother to print 951 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:15,720 Speaker 1: up just all these fake dollars with his fucking face 952 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 1: on it rather than the company script, I can use 953 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 1: it ushers online store. Unfortunately you can't. This has zero, 954 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:26,000 Speaker 1: not even for what clearly says this is. This is 955 00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 1: this is what the next phase of the investigation moves into. 956 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 1: On the bill itself, it says Usher the Las Vegas residency, 957 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 1: which is to promote his residency at a casino. He's 958 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 1: gonna be performing on the strip or whatever. You've got 959 00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,520 Speaker 1: a big check for that. And there have been images 960 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,320 Speaker 1: of like the promotional stuff with him with a suitcase 961 00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:48,120 Speaker 1: full of these Usher dollars. So like it's known that 962 00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:50,120 Speaker 1: this stuff was made into was part of our promotion. 963 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:55,680 Speaker 1: According to the management as the Sapphire Club. Uh, they 964 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:59,400 Speaker 1: say Usher was a legit customer, and he paid real 965 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 1: money and tipped real money and over overpay for Sparkly 966 00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 1: champagne with real money. And it turns out from the 967 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 1: sources around Ushers Camp a friend of his, and the 968 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 1: entreage just left some of the loose bills on stage 969 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 1: when they were leaving, just like as a gag, even 970 00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 1: though like they had been giving money, and then this 971 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:20,840 Speaker 1: image came out. But I will say this, this is 972 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 1: what management says too. So I don't know if Usher 973 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:26,280 Speaker 1: did or maybe someone in his entreage tried to be 974 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:29,120 Speaker 1: funny with the stupid money or something and that's what happened, 975 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 1: which is also possible. But I will say this, anybody 976 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:35,560 Speaker 1: who's dealt drugs, work a cashier, or danced at a 977 00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:39,000 Speaker 1: club knows the feeling of real money. And you would 978 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:42,000 Speaker 1: know if you're picking up some bullshit. I mean, granted, 979 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,479 Speaker 1: there's probably tons of bills for you to handle it once, 980 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:46,960 Speaker 1: but I don't know. We'll see. I used to work 981 00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 1: at path Mark and someone tried to pay for the 982 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 1: groceries with us your bucks and then you're just like, I, 983 00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 1: actually my heart's breaking for you know, Yeah, I can't 984 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:00,280 Speaker 1: use it at path mark, but you can't and use 985 00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 1: it most routes and yeah, yeah, Kroger will take blue 986 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 1: face Usher Usher hundreds. I'm gonna I'm gonna believe the 987 00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:14,480 Speaker 1: dancer until we we hear more. But it's I want 988 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 1: to hear the dancers of Sapphire say this, not the 989 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 1: management of Sapphire, but who who initially posted it. I 990 00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 1: guess we don't have like great sourcing on this. Um yeah, 991 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:30,560 Speaker 1: I mean Jezebel has some. They started looking around, but 992 00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:32,840 Speaker 1: mostly like the quotes they had were from other people 993 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 1: commenting on how bullshit a moved that is to do 994 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 1: at a strip club, which is anywhere I think Jane 995 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:45,280 Speaker 1: Jane Mayer did in the New York I'm seeing money. 996 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 1: She has a recorded Raymond's tip scandal.

Alright, Well, 1159 01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:32,679 Speaker 1: my name is Miles. I'm gonna be ensuring the quality 1160 01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:35,599 Speaker 1: of the sounded picture during the first fifteen minutes because 1161 01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:37,519 Speaker 1: here at Arc Light we take the movie going for 1162 01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:40,640 Speaker 1: you super serious. Okay, please stop throwing shit at me. 1163 01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:43,160 Speaker 1: We'll get the movie going every once in a while, 1164 01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:47,240 Speaker 1: Like you could see a like a director or like 1165 01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:49,519 Speaker 1: do a director Q and A after a movie, like 1166 01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:53,320 Speaker 1: if you went the opening weekend, yeah, flos, I I 1167 01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:58,400 Speaker 1: think inglorious bastards. I saw the Tarantino Yeah, and that's 1168 01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 1: when I was like I saw him for the first 1169 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:01,760 Speaker 1: time in person. I was like, I'm not a fan 1170 01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:04,880 Speaker 1: of this guy anymore. True. He made everyone take their 1171 01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:07,080 Speaker 1: shoes and socks off while he was doing that. No, No, 1172 01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 1: that was a different one. This was like he was 1173 01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 1: just there to like talk before. It wasn't like the 1174 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:14,400 Speaker 1: full blown one. He just happened to be at the 1175 01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:17,920 Speaker 1: bar outside and he kept like chatting these women up 1176 01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 1: and be like Cadillac margarita, that's what he kept drinking, 1177 01:10:21,160 --> 01:10:23,800 Speaker 1: and then like making other people like who would talk 1178 01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:25,280 Speaker 1: to him, was like, oh, you don't like a cat 1179 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:28,479 Speaker 1: Cadillac margarita. And I was like, you're so sweaty, sir, 1180 01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:30,840 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. Like and you and 1181 01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:33,240 Speaker 1: you somehow you reek of cocaine. I don't know how 1182 01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:37,280 Speaker 1: you did that. That's amazing that where the insides of 1183 01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:42,479 Speaker 1: somebody else's nose smell like cocaine to other people. Yeah, 1184 01:10:42,560 --> 01:10:44,280 Speaker 1: but shout out to him. I mean, he doesn't like 1185 01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:49,680 Speaker 1: one of one of the great you know what I mean. 1186 01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:54,160 Speaker 1: He and Cocaine collaborated on some great scripts. That is 1187 01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:58,200 Speaker 1: the personification of Cocaine talking. I'm worried though, that it's 1188 01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:00,599 Speaker 1: like Amazon or some ship buys the home and then 1189 01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:04,080 Speaker 1: that's why I'm saying, like artists need to get on 1190 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:07,240 Speaker 1: this ship quick, artists and drug dealers work together. Let's 1191 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:10,799 Speaker 1: get some theaters up and running before fucking Amazon buys 1192 01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:12,760 Speaker 1: them all. And the only thing we can watch is 1193 01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:17,480 Speaker 1: like the Jeff Bezos biopic that he just produced. Uh, 1194 01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:20,240 Speaker 1: that's got to be coming right. Like I feel like 1195 01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:22,760 Speaker 1: there should be a movement in l A for for 1196 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:28,120 Speaker 1: us to own the dome, like we own the own 1197 01:11:28,160 --> 01:11:30,920 Speaker 1: the Dome. And then we're like, yo, we play what 1198 01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 1: the funk we want? Like it's all you know, Like 1199 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:37,599 Speaker 1: it's it's it's the collectively owned. We pay everybody good. 1200 01:11:37,600 --> 01:11:39,720 Speaker 1: We're not really interested in cashing out, and we just 1201 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:42,800 Speaker 1: wanted to keep the dome our thing, keep the Dome 1202 01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:48,840 Speaker 1: our home. Start start that go fund me. Yeah, I'm 1203 01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:51,920 Speaker 1: about to run off with the money though. That's one 1204 01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:54,960 Speaker 1: thing you should We will take that money. It just 1205 01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:57,599 Speaker 1: said they're not opening who are they selling the land, Like, 1206 01:11:57,600 --> 01:11:59,519 Speaker 1: who are they? How do you even find out who 1207 01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:02,880 Speaker 1: owns that ship? Yeah? I don't know whoever owns like 1208 01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:07,599 Speaker 1: that property. I'd imagine like where that whole theater complex. 1209 01:12:08,400 --> 01:12:10,680 Speaker 1: I for like one minute when I heard this, I 1210 01:12:10,760 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna like try and do something with this, 1211 01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:15,919 Speaker 1: And then I was like thinking about all the meetings 1212 01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:19,679 Speaker 1: with insufferable people that it would require to do that 1213 01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:23,360 Speaker 1: and how hard it would be.
