All right, well, let's 79 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: get into what was happening with the rest of the world. Yeah, 80 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 1: that we were oblivious to because we were doing our thing. 81 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: But apparently, uh, in the year two thousand ten, there 82 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: was an oil spill. I'll hear about this. That was 83 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: of was it the Horizon. But yeah, deep Water Horizon, 84 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 1: Water Horizon, great film was based on real life. Yeah, yeah, 85 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: you're just a fan of the movie. Wahlberg said, if 86 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: he was there, he would have been able to kill 87 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: the would punch the fire. He would punch the fire 88 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: and save everybody. One of the most remarkable things. So 89 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: the way I went back through, so we should just 90 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: say up top, I did two thousand ten, two thousand eleven, 91 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: So I'll be taking you guys through the events of 92 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: that year based on my cursory googling. Uh. And one 93 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: of the things that I noticed, So one of the 94 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: ways that I went through was looking at times review 95 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: like Year in Review from the end of two thousand ten, 96 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: so like what they thought was not a bowl about 97 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: the year, and they covered the Tea Party like it 98 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: was the wave, like it was cut like this is yeah. Uh, 99 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: the Rise of the Tea Party was their number two 100 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: top ten stories of the year. Uh. And they were like, 101 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: you know, back in oh eight, we thought it was 102 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 1: everything was going left, but now things have changed. The 103 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: Tea Party a disparate collection of anti big government activists 104 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: and heartland conservatives. Uh. They do acknowledge that it has 105 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: the backing of wealthy patrons like Charles and David Coke, 106 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: but they don't specified that it was fully astroturfed by them, 107 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: like a cynical ploy. The day Obama was being sworn in, 108 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: the Koch brothers had a meeting of million and billionaires 109 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: at a like golf course where they were like, how 110 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: are we going to take this motherfucker down? He's going 111 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: to be bad for our fortunes. That was not evident 112 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: to people back in two thousand and ten, but there's 113 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: a great book called Dark Money about like the whole movement, 114 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: and this was I mean, it's really a conspiracy. They 115 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: like had people at these like the at these tea 116 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: party rallies with like signs that were written by the 117 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: Koch brothers, and like the people with the same wording 118 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: on the same signs and like the same misspellings would 119 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: show up in like different cities because they were downloading 120 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: a file of information on like weird takes to have 121 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: fly your gats and flags. It's all uh man, that 122 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: was such a This was so disheartening too. I think 123 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: this is when we uh The work that I was 124 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: doing a lot of it was around Obamacare and watching 125 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: this weird ass movement of people dressed up as fucking 126 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: old timey you know, tea party. Uh what the Boston 127 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: Tea Party, the Boston Party out of Rebeck dressed in 128 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: a powder way like just weird forty fifty year old, 129 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: like white dude. There was something really odd about it 130 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: because any time you spoke to somebody who was like 131 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: a tea party or it was someone who was probably 132 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: not realizing that they just hated that the president was black, right, 133 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: And we're maybe first seduced by these like big government themes, 134 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: I think essentially, then you wake up and you're like, oh, right, 135 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: I'm I'm just I'm like, I'm just racist, that's right. 136 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: And they figured that out by the year two thousand eighteen, 137 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: but two thousand sixteen, I guess. But yeah. So their 138 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: summary of the tea Party movement ends with the sentence, 139 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: spurred on by some of the more influential and telegenic 140 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: personalities in the US, like Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck, 141 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: the tea Party maybe here to stay? Can I it wasn't? 142 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: Can I feel a little aside in as a high 143 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: school project, I went to one of those weird technology 144 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 1: high schools where there was no, there was no tests. 145 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: You just did projects. But one of the projects was 146 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: that you basically put together a campaign and ran for 147 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: president in your class on everyone. You built a party. 148 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: You basically made your own party. Like you you assigned 149 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 1: people like there was this press secretary, there was a 150 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: person running, the person who's gonna be vice president, all 151 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: that stuff, and me and my group we um called 152 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: ourselves the Boston Tea Party.

This was 564 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: so Obama goes up and tells the country that he 565 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: killed Bin Ladden the day after the White House press 566 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 1: dinner where him and Seth Meyers shipped on Trump us 567 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 1: launching us into our current timeline because Trump was humiliated 568 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: and was like, I will, I will, I will use Russia.

The world got a little less cruel 573 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: and a little less fashionable. Y yeah, who who's um? 574 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 1: Who has there? Do we have any like American politicians 575 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: who have ever been as fashionable as certain middle leaders 576 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 1: and everyone, I mean, like everyone's basic. Obama was like 577 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: kind of fashionable, but not like that, you mean, like 578 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: next level fashionable, wearing some challenging stuff that was like, yo, 579 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: he is taking risks Like yo, people talk about Lizzo's 580 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: T shirt with the ask cut out Obama was wearing. 581 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: You don't realize he just turns around and like a 582 00:34:54,960 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: tailored suit and his asses cut up. Um Man, in 583 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: this timeline, I can't believe it.

The news was ramping up and becoming i 590 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 1: don't know, faster and more horrifying and more like spectacular 591 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: like this It's so funny because this year I got 592 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: out of politics and I completely disengaged this year. So 593 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:46,320 Speaker 1: whoa the phone, y'all, you gotta tell me this stuff. No, 594 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,880 Speaker 1: I mean, like in that sense, it's weird. Like you 595 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 1: said you were on Twitter more, and I completely stopped 596 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,439 Speaker 1: looking at Twitter. I only looked at news, like very 597 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: selfishly if I had to. Um So, it's interesting now 598 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: that I I don't even have that conception of like 599 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 1: the news speeding up at that point. Yeah, I mean, 600 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 1: it was like the first time that I started writing 601 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: about the news at cracked. Like.

The 608 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: earthquake was like an eight point something on the Richter scale, 609 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 1: is like basically they had all these protections in place, 610 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: but they it was like up to high sevens earthquake, 611 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 1: and each decimal point that you raise an earthquake is 612 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 1: like ten orders of magnitude stronger. But you're saying that 613 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: you had been into that. I was trying to live 614 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: in Japan.

Occupied 743 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 1: Wall Street started in New York in two thousand eleven. 744 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 1: The mainstream media tree this is a bunch of like 745 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: stinky hippies hanging out and pooping in public restrooms and 746 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 1: on the street. That's really how they Yeah, I'm glad 747 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: to see that change, though the perception right before they're 748 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 1: talking about man, I mean there. So on the right 749 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 1: you have the Tea Party, which was actually like the 750 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 1: Koch brothers just being like, don't take our money through taxes. 751 00:44:56,760 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 1: But they the way they appealed to like a popular 752 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 1: list movement, was by talking about the bailouts.
