They 21 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: it's nice to see hummer basically going from it's like 22 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: the like doing the antithesis of what it once was. 23 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 1: Gas guzzling used to be like the thing you would 24 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: talk about conveniently to be like, and then you got 25 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: these hummers going around everywhere, and now they've gone to 26 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: a full on electric truck. This is the thing. Like, 27 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people are like really into 28 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: combustion engines and things like this, but when you look 29 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: at like the performance you got out of an electric car, 30 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: it's like, it doesn't This fucking truck is gonna go 31 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: zero to sixty in three seconds and have eleven thousand, 32 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:50,279 Speaker 1: five hundred foot pounds of torque. It's okay, yeah, okay, 33 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: cool it is. They move very fast. They accelerate almost 34 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: at a speed that doesn't seem like because it's like 35 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: you're turning a switch on. Yeah, and it's just going 36 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: as fast as physics will allow it, as opposed to 37 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: as fast as like the engine can get heated up 38 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: and like start moving, so it really really flies. Real 39 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 1: motor talk from us right here. Yeah, you know that 40 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: engine just heats up and then it goes boom, and 41 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: then it goes boom. Man, you know what I'm saying, 42 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: and I'm dang, oh my coaster. George Wallace is trending 43 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: what that guy doing back in the news, racist politician, 44 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: the governor, the governor Wallace because everyone's so into white prepanancy. Again, 45 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: it's just people just found out and they're like, hell 46 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: yeah no, uh so Bernie. Critics are saying that he 47 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: wrote an article. They've uncovered an article from Envy two 48 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: where he talks positively about George Wallace. But this is 49 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: the thing that's been out there for years, um and 50 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: when you look at what he said, it was not 51 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: positive at all. It was he was basically saying that 52 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: he understands where the political power that he put together, 53 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: um came from. That it was disaffected people. But basically 54 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: he ended up saying, could Nazi Germany happened here? Could 55 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: you know, black people and hippies and all the you know, 56 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: marginalized communities in America turned into the turned into the 57 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: Jews and communists of the Nazi experience? Yes, I could 58 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: see that happening. But people, I think there was something 59 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: where he said that a certain feeling of admiration and 60 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: respect for their anger at the political system, but feared that, 61 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: with Wallace's influence growing, their collective rage exposed an existential 62 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: threat to civil rights and American pluralism. Uh So, he was, 63 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: you know, basically describing the Wallace phenomenon, and people are 64 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: taking various aspects of it context. A lot of it's 65 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: the people on the left too. They're like, no, I know, 66 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: but I mean, like it showed this is okay. They're 67 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: they're very focused on trying to get something to stick 68 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: about Bernie. Sam Stein from The Daily Beast was like, 69 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: among the many questions of that this raises, how did 70 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: Biden's team not have access to this? This is like 71 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: killer stuff? And somebody else tweeted that this is like 72 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: proves once again that Bernie is unvetted and can't be 73 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: trusted and is a liability. So that's why that is trending. 74 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: Uh also trending Rand Paul uh So he put together 75 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: he wanted to get John Roberts to read the whistleblower 76 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: name during the Senate impeachment trial, and John Roberts was like, 77 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: what fuck you are you kid? I will not how 78 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: about not, I will not grant you this request. Uh 79 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: And so Rampaul just called a press conference and named 80 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: him himself because as a libertarian, he is a fan 81 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: of free speech, uh, which he doesn't want to protect 82 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: someone's right to cut out rampant corruption. Basically very very good, 83 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: very good morals to have, you know, Yeah, what like 84 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: this is just all part of the same. No one 85 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 1: is act no one actually acts out what they say 86 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: their values are on the right anymore. Like it's completely 87 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: so transparently corrupt and fucked up. There's nothing this guy. 88 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: You'd think as a libertarian, you would care like this 89 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: ability to hold these kinds of government entities accountable. You'd 90 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, okay, I see some benefit to that that. 91 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: There's nothing about this that does that. There's nothing everything again, 92 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: like there's no argument that they have on the right 93 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: that actually appeals to like logic or even any of 94 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: like the supposed values are of their party. And it 95 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: really does sort of underlying there's this great piece in 96 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: the Atlantic that's just talking about this is really the 97 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: last stand for white minority power. And it's been at 98 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: every level, at every phase of our history, there's always 99 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: been some kind of struggle about this to maintain minority power. 100 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: It's like okay, so first, okay, we're gonna free slaves. Well, now, 101 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: how do we how do we deal with that? What 102 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: is the what's the what? What do we do now 103 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: about the status of these people? Then it's like, okay, 104 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 1: we've got immigrants. Now, now we're getting smaller numbers because 105 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: now we have immigrants coming here. How do we figure 106 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: out how to are there people that we can just 107 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: determine being white enough or not white enough? Okay? Wait, 108 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: women are voting now, okay, so how do we how 109 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: do we figure out how to like how long can 110 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: we keep women down from voting? Okay? How much? How? 111 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: Now it's like voter id laws at every in every era, 112 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: we have this sort of struggle, and like this is 113 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: the latest one because I mean, when you look at 114 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: all of the projections demographically of what the country is 115 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: beginning to look like, Yes, it's going to the the white 116 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: people will be in the minority, and already there you 117 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: look on I guess for most liberals, they say the 118 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: power structure can involve most people depends on how where 119 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: you on the spectrum on the left. But some people 120 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: will say it's for everyone. Some people say, well, you know, 121 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: maybe it's the privilege. But yeah, I think this is now, 122 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: this is just the latest iteration. And again they're willing, 123 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: they're so shortsighted because they know if we give up 124 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: Trump now, like what happens, We've given up the farm 125 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: where we would we ever get reelected? What do we do? 126 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: And I think also they realize because he's such a 127 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: his vitriol and he's so divisive and so good at 128 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: energizing the dormant racist in people that they're like, God, 129 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: there's there's this there's this energy though that it's tapped 130 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: into that they're also you know, it's like the fucking 131 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: ark of the Covenant they're playing with. Yeah, I do 132 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: wonder how unique Trump is going to be going forward, 133 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: Like it seems like there's gonna be all sorts of 134 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: politicians who are just at least willing to tap into 135 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: the racism in the vitriol. Um. Who knows if they'll 136 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: be as talented at hate mongering as him, but um, anyways, 137 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: Ran Paul, pure piece of shit. Uh just took a 138 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: DNA test. Pure piece of shit. Uh, shouts out to 139 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: his neighbor, who beat the ship out of him, presumably 140 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: for no It was over cutting his lawn or something. 141 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: It was like a properly it's like the most peaked. 142 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: Like I don't give a shout out to that guy. 143 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: I don't give a funk why. It just gave him 144 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: a reason. Yeah, just give him a reason. Rand, just 145 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: give him a reason. Um. And finally, Seattle cracking is trending. Yeah, sick, dude, 146 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: I mean what everyone's saying. You know, I say, I say, 147 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: released the cracking jokes every day at work and everyone 148 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 1: thinks they're sick. It's always on the way into the 149 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: bathroom and it just started weeping in the room heating. Um. Yeah, 150 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that that Seattle is getting a new 151 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: NHL team, and so right now it's not confirmed, but 152 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: the rumors are spreading that the team name that will 153 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: be called the Seattle Cracking Yeah, which is kind of cool. 154 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: Yeah it sounds cool. Yeah, the logo better be cool. 155 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure any nerd will love it just because of 156 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: its place in literature. So so cool. Maybe maybe sponsored 157 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: by cracking rum.
