1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Markmas Show 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: where we talk about the decentralized Revolution. And today I 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:10,040 Speaker 1: got a special show for you. I him sitting down 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 1: with somebody very special, somebody that I'm excited to talk to, 5 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: someone I know you're gonna be excited to talk to 6 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 1: that continues to talk about how the world is changing. 7 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: Is I like to talk about through the decentralized Revolution, 8 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 1: But he talks about it from a place of comedy, 9 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: from a place of humor, because if we can't laugh 10 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: at ourselves, what can we even do? And so one 11 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: of the best ways to break these things down is 12 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: to poke fun at them. And so I'm talking about 13 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 1: JP Sears. You might know him from his wonderful sketches 14 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: on uh YouTube. And so we're gonna talk about freedom. 15 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about why he's doing what he's doing, 16 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,279 Speaker 1: how he uses comedy to expose things. We're gonna talk 17 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: about the world I can mcforhim. We're gonna talk about 18 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: bick one, We're gonna talk about so many things. Let's 19 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: just go ahead and just jump right into the interview 20 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 1: with JP. The content is only one part of what 21 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: I do. I mean, I am I have multiple businesses, 22 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: um Advisor for a for a investment fund, UM started 23 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: just another investment fund. I have all my personal investments, 24 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: I have kids. I mean, I have all this other 25 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,479 Speaker 1: stuff um And a lot of times I just asked myself, like, 26 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: why why am I doing this? I have to kind 27 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: of go back to that. Well, I'm sure you do 28 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: as well. So why is that that you keep doing 29 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: this and putting that much time into it when you 30 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: could certainly do two videos a week instead of five. Yeah, 31 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 1: you know, I think for me, it's it's a passion 32 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: for the message of sovereignty, critical thinking, and ultimately freedom, 33 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: and there's obviously so much opposition in the world against that, 34 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 1: so I think being very mission focused, it's the most motivating, 35 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: energizing thing, way more energizing than caffeine, for example. So 36 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: there's just like that natural energy to do a lot. 37 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: And it's also pretty rewarding, and I mean extremely rewarding 38 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: and fulfilling, just out of like a sense of un 39 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: contributing to the greater good, which to me makes all 40 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: the hard work and massive amount of time worth it. Yeah, 41 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: the only way. So, so what is the mission? Yeah, 42 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: in a word, the mission is freedom to spread it, 43 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: to spread the ideas, Yes, spread the ideas. And I 44 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: think a wise man Ramdas once said, you can't get 45 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: out of a jail you don't know you're in. And 46 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: there's so much anti freedom, tyranny, authoritarianism in the world 47 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 1: that's all packaged in the wrapping paper of gas lighting 48 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: saying like, hey, we're trying to save democracy by banning 49 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: free speech. So but because there's so much opposition in 50 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: the world trying to take freedoms, and knowing about history 51 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: like this is not the first time it happens, and 52 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: we see where it will go if we allow it. 53 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: So I think we're living in a very critical time 54 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: in history, which just makes the mission of freedom internally 55 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: and externally externally, Like obviously our social or national policies, 56 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: let's let the constitution actually continue exist, that's important. But 57 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: also I don't think we can have external freedom if 58 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: we don't also have internal freedom of helping people be 59 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: in touch with their own critical thinking um as well 60 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: as people having the courage to act on what actually 61 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: they think is true as well as what feels true 62 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: in their heart. So there's just because we're at that 63 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: critical time in history, I think it's really important to 64 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: go all in, and you know, I look forward to 65 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: the day, hopefully soon, where it's like, oh, you know, 66 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: freedom is not like as in Jeopardy as it is now. 67 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: It's relatively good. We don't want to take it for 68 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: granted again. But I look forward to the day where 69 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: it's like, dude, I don't think we need to make 70 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: that much content anymore. And now we have to talk 71 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: about other things. Yeah, yeah, let's let's or for me 72 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: comedy world, like, let's come up with a funny video 73 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: about coconut oil or just something stupid and frivolous like that, 74 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: rather than kind of like the life and death scenario 75 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: of freedom is in the ballast Yeah yeah, yeah, uh 76 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: and what about using comedy for that? So um, in 77 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: preparing for this, we were looking at some of the 78 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: things that you've been talking about, um, and you talk 79 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: a lot about things that I don't want to talk 80 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: about right now because I want to put this on YouTube. 81 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: And I can't imagine what those they had to do 82 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: with the medicine and uh, you know, those types of things. 83 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: But ye, costa but Corona beer, Yes, yeah, we'll talking 84 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: about alcohol, but you get away with a lot of 85 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: stuff because of the comedy side. Do you think it's 86 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: because the algorithms don't pick that up? I do. I 87 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: think there's a couple of components to it. One is 88 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: the algorithms. They however, they're programmed. I don't think they're 89 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: programmed to pick up satire. And when I like my 90 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 1: we all have love language is probably heard about them 91 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: like physical touch, gifts, words of affirmation. I think we 92 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: also have humor languages. Some people like slapstick humors, some 93 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: people like goofy, some people like raunchy. But satire is 94 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: my natural humor language. So when you're beating satirical like 95 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: you can like sarcastic, absolutely, So it's all in the 96 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: tone of voice, the delivery, and the context. So if 97 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: you read this script from one of my satirical news 98 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: videos that I do, take out the body language, the tonality, 99 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: and the context you're just reading the script, you'd be like, Oh, 100 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: he's just literally saying the narrative. We approve of this. 101 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: So I think the AI is reading words, it's not 102 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: reading the human artistic elements. I'd imagine they're working on that, 103 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: But I think that's a speaking the comedy language of 104 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: satire helps dance through the rain drops of censorship. I 105 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: also think you know me knowing what are the hot 106 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: buttons that will get you d platform real quick talking 107 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: about medicines in a way that's against the narrative. So 108 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: the language of comedy helps open up other doors of expressions. 109 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: So using metaphors and analogies, even acting out metaphors like, um, 110 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: did you by chance to see the video I did 111 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: on life jackets being mandated? The video wasn't about life jackets. 112 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: We can use our imagination of what it was about. 113 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: So if I don't wear my life jacket, then how 114 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 1: how do I keep you from drowning? Absolutely, and these 115 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: life jackets are proven to be safe and effective. People 116 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: are drowning all the time. Some of the life jackets 117 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: actually sink to the bottom, but we're not going to 118 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: talk about that. So, uh, you know, unlike yourself where 119 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: you know, I think the state of the world, people 120 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: who are into retaining there's freedom, sovereignty, living as a 121 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: decentralized person. I look at people like you and I 122 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: and others who are speaking their messages in different ways. 123 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: We're all playing in a symphony. We're playing different instruments. 124 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: You know you're playing the instrument. You speak just amazing 125 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: cutting edge information in a literal way. I'm speaking in 126 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: a comedic way. So we're playing different instruments, but we're 127 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: playing the same song. And I think we need all 128 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: the instruments, and God help us if comedy was the 129 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: only instrument. We need them all. And there's advantages to 130 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: playing your instrument, advantages for playing mine. And I think 131 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: when it comes to censorship, the language of comedy really 132 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: helps open up door. Is where I have liberties with 133 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: censorship that maybe you don't, where you have to be 134 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: extra careful or it's like crap, I can't even cover 135 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: this topic, but I can throw on a life jacket, 136 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: act out this metaphor and I know it will connect 137 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: with what people have in mind and they'll know what 138 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: it's about, even though I'm not ever seeing the thing 139 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: that it's about. So have you been getting strikes or warnings? 140 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: Let's see, I got it. This was fun. On my 141 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: second YouTube channel, it's called JP Reacts, where I'm doing 142 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: more commentary, so it's much more straightforward, literal stuff that instrument. 143 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: I I made a video about our good friend from Microsoft, 144 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: the world's best doctor with no medical training, no no 145 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: degree either Bill Gates, and and I compiled these clips 146 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: of him speaking about depopulating the world and we're gonna 147 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: do that through you know what, uploaded that video. It 148 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,959 Speaker 1: wasn't even published. That video got taken down and uh, 149 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: not a strike but a warning against my channel. In 150 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: my main YouTube channel, I had a strike come at 151 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: me in January, of which I think was the tensest 152 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: point we we've had in the past few years. You know, 153 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: is between the election and the inauguration, everybody's losing their crap. 154 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 1: So I had a strike on my channel for hate speech, 155 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: like all right, let me look at this video, and 156 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: I know all the videos I published. I'm like, well, 157 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: this is this is frivolous. This there's nothing and they're 158 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: so I repealed it, and luckily they granted me the repeal, 159 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: took this strike down, and at the time there was 160 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: a very well orchestrated cancel attempt towards me. So it 161 00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: was pretty obvious that this group of woke band that's 162 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: got together simultaneously reported this video, and luckily YouTube just 163 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,719 Speaker 1: saw the facts of the matter of that video is 164 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: not violating anything, even though their guidelines that are there 165 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: to be violated, are completely frivolous in the first place. Yeah, 166 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: they saw that video, didn't. So luckily I've been relatively 167 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: unwounded during this time of heavy sense. I've heard Joe 168 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: Rogan talk quite a bit about the problems that comedian 169 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: comedians have these days, more on the woke culture side, 170 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: their cancel culture side, right where you just can't say 171 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: these things that used to be funny anymore, right, so 172 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: um as a as a comedian, and then you see 173 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: that as well. I'm guessing, well, well, I see it, 174 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: but I disagree with Joe Rogan the sentiment of comedians 175 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: can't get away with things. You can't say this or that. Yes, 176 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: you can, certainly does. Chappelle certainly does. The difference between 177 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: him and a lot of other people, including some other comedians, 178 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: Chapelle has balls. He has what's called courage. I'll never 179 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: forget the comedy club I've performed at a couple of 180 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: times in Philadelphia. In the green room wall, there's a 181 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: big picture of Dave Chappelle and he signed it. In 182 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: above his signature, he wrote a little message. He said, 183 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: dear comedians, you have one job, and that's to speak 184 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: the truth, no matter what Dave Chappelle does that it 185 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: takes courage. So this idea that comedians can't say things, 186 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: they only can't say things if they consent to the 187 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: tyranny of intimidation from the woke mob or the narrative. 188 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: But you absolutely can say anything you want. It just 189 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: takes courage to know I'm coming from my best discernment 190 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: of truth, my intentions are in the right spot. Will 191 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: you get hate? And yeah you will, but yuh. Something 192 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: I've learned about cancel culture is they can't cancel you 193 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 1: unless you consent to it. And part of the consenting 194 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: process is based in fear, where you're afraid to lose 195 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: what they can take away, what they can take away, approval, 196 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: they can take away, you know, audience support, they can 197 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: sway people to think you're a racist, transphob all the smears. 198 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: But if you're not afraid to lose what they can 199 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: take away, you are uncancellable. And Dave Chappelle, I'm not 200 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: going to compare myself to him, because he's probably the 201 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: greatest to ever live. That man is not afraid to 202 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: lose anything. He's uncanceable. He's what, like Brett Weinstein would say, 203 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: He's reached a and escape velocity point that I want 204 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: to ask you about. He got to a point where 205 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: he's bigger than the game. He doesn't need a game, yes, right, yeah, people, 206 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: Um I I listened to Andrew Tate and he was 207 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: talking about the difference. He was trying to compare himself 208 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 1: and Logan Paul or Jake Paul are one of those guys, 209 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: and he said the difference is I have fans and 210 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: he has viewers. Because he's on YouTube, people watch him. 211 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 1: He's like, I have fans and no matter where I go, 212 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: those fans will follow. And I don't want to go 213 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: into the whole thing about Andrew Tate, but it just 214 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 1: made me think about the difference there, right, and so like, um, 215 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: that's a great distinction. Yeah if if Dave Chappelle, like 216 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: he has fans and those people will follow him, right, 217 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: you have fans, people go search you out right, And 218 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: so I think maybe that's the difference. And so back 219 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: to the escape velocity, like, do you have to get 220 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: big enough to a point where you're like like a 221 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan. I I don't listen to all his shows. 222 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: If I see an episode, I want to listen to it, um, 223 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: but I downloaded Spotify just so I could listen to 224 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan, right, um, so I followed him, and so 225 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 1: he's uncancellable. He could go launch his own censorship or 226 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: system place form and like people would go there. Yeah. Yeah, 227 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: I think when you're at that mega Joe Rogan, Dave Chappelle, 228 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 1: Jordan Peterson's status, it's easier to be uncancellable because, like 229 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: your great distinction, they know they have fans, not just viewers, 230 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: so they can whatever stream on their own website. They can. 231 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle, he he wasn't even on social media until 232 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: about two years ago, came on Instagram, still never posts there, 233 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: but he sells out theaters in arenas like that, and 234 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: he's not even on social media, but people find him. 235 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: So I think it's easier for them. Not to say 236 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: it doesn't take courage for them, because it does. But 237 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 1: if you're a comedian or a commentator and you've got 238 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: less than ten thousand viewers, it still applies to you. 239 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: I think it just takes more courage because you're you're 240 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: a If you allow your hope to be you're a 241 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: little more dependent on the machine, the machine of social 242 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: media the machine of the powers that be, And granted, 243 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: like if you're kicked off, you're canceled. That's a pain 244 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: in the butt, probably a career setback. Some people wouldn't 245 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:23,239 Speaker 1: have the ingenuity to recover from it. But in my opinion, 246 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: the the decision to be uncancellable in the name of 247 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: standing for your truth, it applies to everybody, just a 248 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: little easier, probably a lot easier if you're a megastar. 249 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: You know, when I when when we're listening at something 250 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: I've been talking about quite a bit, and they'll get 251 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: your take on this is that truth is being sucked 252 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: out of the world right like it's it's obviously being censored, 253 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: it's being changed, and two plus two is five and 254 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: all these things. And it seems like, you know, like 255 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: I said, this truth has been under attack. And as humans, 256 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: I don't believe we want to live a lie. And 257 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: but who will stand up and speak the truth? And 258 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: so you mentioned to Jordan Peterson, who mentioned to Joe 259 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: rogan Um and Andrew Tate, somebody who's willing to stand 260 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: up and say that, A chapelle who's willing to stand 261 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: up and say it, regardless of what happens seems to 262 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: be right now, shooting higher because like everybody, yes, somebody 263 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: said it, yes, right, And if you look at the 264 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: way like movements start, like leaders typically are very polarizing 265 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: because like if you're lukewarm, he's kind of okay, Well 266 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: I don't hate him. I don't like him that much, 267 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: it's kind of okay, right, But the polarizing people people 268 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: hate them, but people love them, and then hey, I 269 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: hate Chapelle. People hate him, but also people love him, 270 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: and then they'll they'll they'll pack into theaters. Right. So 271 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: I think for for people listening to content creators sitting 272 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: there talking, I think that's one thing. I think one 273 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: you said, we're all different instruments in orchestra, so there's 274 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: everybody should have a voice because there's somebody out there 275 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: that could resonate with that. It's a different instrument. But 276 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: even more importantly, like don't be lukewarm, like be polarizing, 277 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 1: like people hate you, you have a cancel mob against you, 278 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: but also people love you, and so you get both 279 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: sides of it. Yeah, man, I I I so agree 280 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,479 Speaker 1: with that, and you know, with being polarizing. For me, 281 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: the main ingredient in that is be bold and unapologetic 282 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 1: with how you see the truth. Polarizing doesn't mean you're 283 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: you're raunchy, you're doing things for shock value. I think 284 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: that's like artificially flavored polarizing. There was my original mentor 285 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 1: pul Check. Remember being in his office in my early 286 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: twenties and he had this big picture of Einstein on 287 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: the wall with an Einstein quote that said great minds 288 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: always encounter violent opposition. Now, back in the early two thousand's, 289 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 1: I looked at that. I'm like, that's a cool quote, 290 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 1: but I don't like get it here in the twenties, Oh, 291 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: I get it. Dave Chappelle, Jordan Peterson encounters violent opposition. 292 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: But those are the leaders that you mentioned. And in 293 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: the also you mentioned like humans have this natural propensity 294 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 1: to seek truth, and I truly believe that is in 295 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: our just innate d n A niature nature. We seek 296 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: truth just like the wisdom of animals out in like 297 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: your backyard. You you have deer out there. They don't 298 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: come up and try to eat your grill. They don't 299 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: try to, you know, eat your chairs. They're seeking actual 300 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: food nutrition that's in their d n A, that's their programming. 301 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: I seek actual food, and to me, truth is food 302 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: for our mind and probably our whole being. And you 303 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 1: can fool us for a while. You can feed us 304 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: artificially flavored arbage process stuff with such little nutritional value 305 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: that it actually takes more nutrientside of your body to 306 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: process that food than it actually delivers. You can fool 307 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: people for a while, but not forever, and a lot 308 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: of people will wake up and go after actual nutritious 309 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: mind food much earlier. So that's why you know, it's 310 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: what I might stands on freedom. It was never business motivated, Like, hey, 311 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: I think like standing for freedom, that's gonna be a 312 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: good business move. That wasn't the motivation. But looking at 313 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: it and some of the examples you mentioned, like a 314 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 1: Jordan Peterson Andrew Tate, people who speak truth, that is 315 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 1: the best thing anyone can do for business because the 316 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: lukewarm people, what they're really doing there in a fear 317 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,479 Speaker 1: based mindset of I'm trying to pay it play it safe, 318 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: Like yeah, I like, I'll push the edge a little bit. 319 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: I won't really push it too far. I'll say a 320 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: little something here, but I'll pull back. Yeah, that's not 321 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: someone emanating truth. That's someone who's afraid. Therefore they're trying 322 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 1: to play it safe and please the masses rather than 323 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 1: being a servant to the truth that wants to live 324 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: through them. Yeah, I'm I'm not. I'm just not naturally 325 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: a confrontational guy. So uh, you know, I don't get 326 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 1: as polarizing or whatever as as it could be. Um, 327 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: but it is. It is something to think about, and 328 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: I think back to living the truth. I think, Um, 329 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: you know, you look at how like these movements started 330 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: to talk about the movement. But I'm sure you've seen 331 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: the video or what the viewers have seen this video 332 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 1: where like, um, there's like a concert like on a 333 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: lawn section, and one person gets up and starts dancing, 334 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: and everyone's like laughing and pointing, look at that idiot. 335 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: Kind of a thing, right, And eventually another person gets 336 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: up and then like they're still kind of laughing, not 337 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: as many, and then the third and then next thing, 338 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: you know, like everybody's dancing. So if one person can 339 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: get up and defy the censorship and defy cancel culture 340 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 1: and stand up and succeed, then look how any more 341 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: people will be motivated to come and stand up and 342 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: succeed with that? Right, absolutely, and the pioneers, we all 343 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 1: owe them gratitude, the first ones to stand up like 344 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: things I'm talking about now Jordan Peterson was talking about 345 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: back in two thousand and fifteen or sixteen, and at 346 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: the time, I'm like, dude, that I don't think that's relevant, 347 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: and like you're catching all these arrows. He's just way smarter. 348 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 1: He saw it way before I did. He's taken way 349 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 1: more arrows. But those of us who follow in his trail, yeah, 350 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: we'll catch arrows, but he's the one with the machete, 351 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: hacking through the forest, taking the arrows head on. And 352 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 1: you know, likewise speaking a common truth about really anything, 353 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: whether it's what Black Lives Matter really stands for, embezzlement, 354 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,239 Speaker 1: or the medicines of our time. Those of us who 355 00:21:55,320 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 1: were speaking truth to those things back in me we 356 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: took a lot more arrows than people who either saw 357 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: it completely differently or they were just scient silent. But 358 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: now a lot of them are saying the same things 359 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: we were saying back in and good for them, Like 360 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 1: none of us are ever the first pioneer, the first 361 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: one to crash through the wall, um, but when someone does, 362 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: it makes it a lot easier for those to follow, 363 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: whether you're in the second wave, third wave, or three 364 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:36,880 Speaker 1: years later, like like it's safer to say the actual 365 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: intelligent things about what's going on now? Yeah, so what 366 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: is going on now? Um? You you reference that you 367 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: hope that at one point maybe it's not so urgent, 368 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: but it is urgent now, right, and you see the 369 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 1: urgency which gives you energy to pour into the mission, 370 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: which is it gives you energy to do this content. 371 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: So what is going on? We have the West? Uh, 372 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 1: they've been meeting this last week. They've been talking about 373 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,479 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of things that they've been 374 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: talking about, and they just get scarier. Maybe, um, what 375 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: are some of the things that you see that are 376 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: so urgent that maybe we could kind of apply pressure 377 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: back to Yeah, Well, first off, Mark, I think on 378 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: camera you should admit to your audience that you are 379 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: a member of the World Economic Forum. I should be, 380 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,959 Speaker 1: I should join, So I could I could be the 381 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: enemy within you become the controlled opposition. Yeah. You know 382 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: what's going on from my delusional perspective at a very 383 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: high level, is there's really an attempt for global domination 384 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: from people who probably had really wounded childhood experiences probably 385 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: didn't feel love, so they're trying to compensate for that 386 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: emptiness with a sense of control. And I think the 387 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: World Economic Forum seems to be the star on top 388 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: of that Christmas tree. Very poor analogy because that stands 389 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: for something very different. But the there seems to be 390 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: a very orchestrated attempt to erode people's freedoms away, install 391 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 1: people in governments around the world who will facilitate that 392 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 1: under the direction of the very unelected leader Klaus Schwabs, 393 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: so high level. I think there's a very orchestrated attempt 394 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: for global control over people. And then the fight is 395 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: for individuals nations, yes, but at the heart of it, 396 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: the cellular level of fight for individuals to retain their 397 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: sovereignty and their human rights, and of course the attempt 398 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: for global control. It's all packaged and lovely sounding wrapping 399 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: paper paper like, yeah, we're gonna ban fertilizers to save 400 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: the climate. Yeah it's starved to death. Yeah we see that. 401 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 1: We're not going to talk about that. But the all 402 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 1: we do to scare you about the climate. Guess what 403 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: we also have the solution of that, you know, eat 404 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 1: some crickets. Not meat. So I think part of the 405 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: control there's deliberate attempts to weaken people mentally and physically. 406 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: Weakening people mentally has to do with telling them what's 407 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: true rather than letting them use the muscle of their 408 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: own critical thinking. I think back to the New York 409 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: Times article that was published on the dangers of critical thinking. 410 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: Weakens people mentally. That's why the narrative is always coming 411 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 1: at you twenty four seven, Because the more you just 412 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: listen to that, that's like leaning on a mental crutch. 413 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,479 Speaker 1: You're not using your prefrontal cortex doing your own thinking, 414 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 1: so people get weaker. And then physically, it seems like 415 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: there's that attempt to weaken people at the physical level 416 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: is very much there as well, where we see propaganda 417 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 1: like James Cameron came out and said testosterone is a poison. 418 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: I think that hormone is incredibly natural, incredibly healthy, and 419 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: that literally makes you strong. And the propaganda about meat 420 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: is bad. Meat's gonna cause hurricanes, so we're gonna out 421 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: and said, what lucky charms is more more healthy than 422 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 1: eggs cooked and butter. Absolutely, So you look at eggs 423 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: cooked in butter, I eat that for breakfast almost every 424 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: day I eat all I mean, these foods that adjectively 425 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: make people stronger are the foods they're trying to scare 426 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: you about and then eat crickets, eat lucky charms, these 427 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: foods I don't even know if you call them foods, 428 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: but these substances that certainly won't make you stronger, but 429 00:26:54,640 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: I would say they would actually make you weaker and sicker. Yeah, so, um, 430 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,439 Speaker 1: it's funny. I was thinking about that don't do your 431 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: own research, and and the dumbing down of people, you know. 432 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: And at the same time, they're saying, we have to 433 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: save democracy, to save democracy, to save democracy, so democracy 434 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: would be everybody gets a voice, which will just be 435 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: clear of the US is the United States was founded 436 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: as a republic, not a democracy. They're saying the democracy 437 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: because they want to change the narrative. We're not a democracy, 438 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 1: so it' gonna be clear on that. But they want 439 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: to say save the democracy, which means everybody gets a voice, 440 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: and then it would be the will of the people. 441 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: But people are dumb, and they're telling people not to 442 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 1: do their research. Well, if they're telling people not to 443 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: do their research, then why would we care about their opinion. Yeah, 444 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: right it and not to mention like in our democracy 445 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: everybody has a voice, like you mentioned, yet we're banning 446 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 1: speech left and right obviously censorship. And then, um, I 447 00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: forget the lady's name, but at the beautiful Dean and 448 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 1: Davos this week, there was a lady in the European 449 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: Union who said, yeah, the freedom of press in the US, 450 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: that's not going to be long lived because the dangers, 451 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: there's so much hate speech and so, in other words, 452 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: taking away the voice of the people in order to 453 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: promote democracy, which gives everybody a voice, it is just gaslighting. 454 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: It's double speak. Whatever they say, they're actually doing the opposite, which, 455 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: by the way, our First Amendment not only gives us 456 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: the right to free speech, but also specifically the right 457 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: to freedom of press. And here's this European Union lady, 458 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: not an American, not an elected representative in America, talking 459 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: about how the US will put the clamps on freedom 460 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: of press. How dare anybody saying anything? Mean? Yeah, over again, 461 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: ever again, And it's just the ridiculous liessn't of that 462 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,479 Speaker 1: the gas lighting too? You know, when you look at 463 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: the definition of gas lighting, I mean it's a form 464 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: of psychological warfare or torture against somebody. And I think 465 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: a lot of this also it's meant to demoralize, right, 466 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: I'm sure you see it a lot. I see it 467 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: a lot on my comments if you go through your comments. Um, 468 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: but I see these comments of people are like, what what, 469 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: we have no chance, we have no choice. Why should 470 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: I even bother? Um, there's nothing we can do. And 471 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: I constantly see that, you know, and and and the 472 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: demoralization has worked. Um, I've started. You know, I talk 473 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: a lot of you do a more lighthearted kind of way, 474 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff. I talk about the same topics, 475 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: but it's it's more matter of fact. What's heavy? Um. 476 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: And then it's too much doom and gloom all the time. 477 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: And I try to like really kind of pivot back 478 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: to and we're going to pivot back to some hope 479 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: in this, but pivot back to some hope. Like, look, 480 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: things are bad. I believe we can win if we 481 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: do the hard work. And I believe that for my 482 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: kids and in a few generations there's hope and prosperity. 483 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,719 Speaker 1: And just when I landed here in Austin, UM, I 484 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: looked at a couple of comments that came through on 485 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: I syndicate my videos out to channels where they don't 486 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: get censored, so not just YouTube, so they go to 487 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: like Odyssey and bit Shoot and Rumble and stuff like that. 488 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: And I had a couple of comments and one said, 489 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 1: hope and prosperity. What a buffoon. I'm an idiot for 490 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: thinking that there could be hope and prosperity in the future. 491 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: Apparently another person said there's no chance of hope. The 492 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: FED has all the control essential bankers are gonna Like, 493 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: I saw a couple of those comments come in, and 494 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: I'm just like, maybe that's indicative of that audience that's 495 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: on bit shoot, Like, but I'm just like, man, people 496 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: are so demoralized. Yeah, and I I can empathize with that. Like, 497 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot of screwed up stuff going on in 498 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: the world, a lot of unjust stuff going on, So 499 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: I understand why someone can be to moralized. However, the 500 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: spoiler alert that a demoralized person probably doesn't want to 501 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,239 Speaker 1: hear because they're sitting there. They probably agree with a 502 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,959 Speaker 1: lot of what you and I might say as far 503 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: as the perspectives of what's going on in the world, 504 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: but they sit there and have this message of but 505 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: we're hopeless. Well, those people probably don't know, but they 506 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: need to understand is they are being controlled by the tyrants. 507 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: You know. That's that belief that we're hopeless. That's exactly 508 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: their point. That's exactly where they want you to be. 509 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: So you've entered the frame of the authoritarians. The moment 510 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: you actually believe we are hopeless, I personally have tremendous hope. 511 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: You look at cycles throughout history, and sometimes the tyrants 512 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: do some really tyrannical stuff taken to the nth degree, 513 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 1: but a lot of times freedom wins. You look at Hitler, 514 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: his reign was I mean, he took it a long ways, 515 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: but Hitler did not win. You look at the brave 516 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: people in seventeen seventy six in the American Revolution. There 517 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: they won against a very tyrannical regime who, by all rights, 518 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: they should have won. And and I think there's a 519 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: thousand more examples. Yeah, and I'll have moments of demoralization. 520 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: I won't pretend like I don't. Luckily, they're just moments. 521 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: They're not hours or days, their moments. And in those moments, 522 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 1: I'll look at the measurables. Okay, the authoritarians, tyrants, the 523 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 1: West Chinese Communist Party, the Biden regime. They control governments, 524 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: they control trillions of dollars, they control all the mainstream media, 525 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: they control big tech. We can, politician, we can't compete 526 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: with that. What do we have? Then I start to read, member, 527 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: we have two things. We have a massive amount of 528 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: more people, and we have got on our side. And 529 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: I'm not a religious scholar. I do believe in a 530 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: higher power who I believe stands for truth. I think 531 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 1: truth is based on the higher power. I think that 532 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: is ultimate freedom. So evil people, and my definition of evil, 533 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 1: just I don't sound abstract, is anyone who tries to 534 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: control another person in a way that's not in their 535 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: best interest. Evil people don't have GOT on their side. 536 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: We do. Evil people don't have the masses on their side. 537 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 1: We do. So we have things that are so powerful 538 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: that they're beyond measure, largely everything that authoritarians have. They're 539 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 1: not unpowerful, but they're powerless enough that you can measure 540 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: them quantitatively, like, oh, how much money do they control? 541 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: What are the governments they can troll? What's the media 542 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:06,239 Speaker 1: they control? So I have tremendous hope. And you know, 543 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: you can be the most well resourced person, You can 544 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: be the most well resourced group mentally, physically, capability wise. 545 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: But if you don't have hope, your resources are useless 546 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,479 Speaker 1: and you you have lost before you even started the game. 547 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 1: In my opinion, there's a line from Star Wars and 548 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:29,439 Speaker 1: it's something about rebellions are built on hope, and so, um, yeah, 549 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: what revolution will ever happen? Who will ever stand up 550 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 1: if they don't have hope that they can succeed? Who 551 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: would start a business if they don't have hope they 552 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,280 Speaker 1: could succeed? Who would have a family if they wouldn't 553 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: write them? And without hope, you're dead right, the people perish. 554 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 1: I think the Bible says I hope that people perish. 555 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 1: Um yeah. The other thing I would add to that 556 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,919 Speaker 1: and I agree with those things. Another thing I would 557 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 1: add that we have on our side is that their 558 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:56,479 Speaker 1: plans do not work. And we know this because Sri 559 00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:02,240 Speaker 1: Lanka was the school and look what happened in Sri Lanka. 560 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: And so every time these types of central planning control policies, 561 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 1: Viet money experiments, every time they've been applied and let 562 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: run of course they fail, and so ultimately, if we 563 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 1: just leave them a little long enough, they'll fell on 564 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: their fall on their own. Nietzschi says that which is falling, 565 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: shall ye also push So then I like to also 566 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: push back a little bit, right, So, um, you have hope, 567 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: which gives you some energy and strength and motivation to 568 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: do something. So, where do you see some places that 569 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: we can kind of push back for those that are 570 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: feeling demoralized? Yeah, you know, I think the greatest there's 571 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:45,760 Speaker 1: many places, but I think the greatest pushback is taking 572 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: sovereignty over our own lives. And and I'll throw out 573 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: the term become decentralized in many senses of the word. 574 00:35:55,640 --> 00:36:00,399 Speaker 1: The more you're decentralized as far as thinking cool now 575 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 1: you are not dependent on the narrative, You are not 576 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: outsourcing your information. You are a decentralized free thinker. You've 577 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: got to start there. Become decentralized with your grow some 578 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 1: of your own food. Sounds sort of minuscule, but it's 579 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: huge because if you're dependent on the centralized food systems, 580 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: you will be dependent on the people controlling those. You'll 581 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: literally be enslaved unless you're willing to be to starve 582 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: to death, become decentralized with finance. That's reason why I'm 583 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 1: such a big fan of bitcoin. So I think, uh, 584 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: how to become decentralized in all the ways, it comes 585 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: down to self responsibility. Centralization is all based on someone 586 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,439 Speaker 1: else's responsibility. You do it for me, You produce the food, 587 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: I'll go to the store and buy it. Cool. You 588 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 1: do you fed, You run the monetary system. Cool, I'll 589 00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: just participate in that. Um. You tell me what's going 590 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 1: on in the world, I'll just hear it and believe it. 591 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 1: Raise my kids for me, take care of my education, 592 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: give me healthcare. Absolutely, And there's not self responsibility in 593 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: their very little amounts of it. But self responsibility. I 594 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: think it's the greatest superpower of our time. And it's 595 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 1: uncomfortable because it takes work, it takes effort, it takes 596 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:26,479 Speaker 1: mental energy to become more and more self responsible. Yet 597 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 1: the more self responsible you are, truly, the more decentralized 598 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 1: you are. You're not you're not contributing to the momentum 599 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: of what's wrong in the world. You're taking your kinetic 600 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 1: energy out of that and putting it into your own life. 601 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: And probably the community around you, which is I think 602 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:51,760 Speaker 1: a much better place for our kinetic and mental energy 603 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: to be energizing. So become independent, um, which means you're 604 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: not depending on somebody else for all of those things. 605 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: So being healthy and strong, then I don't have to 606 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 1: depend as much on the medical system because I can 607 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 1: my body is healthy. Right. My money with bitcoin, I 608 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: can store it on my own. Nobody can manipulate it. Um, 609 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: whether I and then even having money, even having money, 610 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: because then money gives us options. So then I can 611 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: gross some my food. I can buy food from other farmers, 612 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: we could trade coop. So ways to become more independent, 613 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: I guess is kind of what you're thinking. And then 614 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: and then taking care of yourself first, um, and then 615 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 1: becoming that example because then other people see that example 616 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 1: and then they want to join in A hundred percent 617 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 1: agree with that. And I think when it comes to 618 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: be becoming independent, I think the best place to start 619 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: is exactly where we're at and then take one step forward, 620 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 1: because someone could like look at you, like, oh, mark, 621 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 1: you you bought a ranch. That's like an incredible mark 622 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,760 Speaker 1: of independence. You've got land, you can grow your own food, 623 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: You've got probably some major investment. So there's a degree 624 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 1: of financial independence there. Mark that's fifty steps from where 625 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:11,239 Speaker 1: I'm at. So I'm hopeless that works for you. No, No, 626 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 1: it's a continuum. So wherever you're at, whether you're making 627 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: sixteen grand a year or sixteen million dollars a year, 628 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: no matter what you have, you can take the next 629 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: step of independence. And you know, my first step of 630 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 1: independence was super small, but it was my first step. 631 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 1: I remember back December, I'm like, dude, I don't know 632 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 1: the poop might hit the fan. So I ordered a 633 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 1: sixty days supply of nonperishable food from I think it 634 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 1: was my Patriots Supply dot com. That's not the end 635 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: all be all, but that was my first step. Second step, 636 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,720 Speaker 1: I bought my first firearm. So these are little steps 637 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 1: that are helping take me where I want to go 638 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: within my current financial means. And everybody considers what's my 639 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 1: current financial means, but there's no excuse. We can take 640 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: more steps. And taking one step towards independence, that is 641 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: that's a great improvement. Once you're there, you can assess 642 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:17,479 Speaker 1: what's your next step. Yeah, and and to your point, 643 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 1: and I made a couple of videos about this ranch 644 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: and I got the comments, Oh, that's easy for you, 645 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: you're rich, I don't have any money, blah blah blah. 646 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: But um, to your point, uh, what's your own health? Like, yeah, 647 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: is your health? Are you healthy? Because that's a step 648 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: that you could certainly take. Right getting into the gym 649 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,359 Speaker 1: that is a mark of independent. Or you push ups, 650 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 1: that's the mark of independence. And what about your education, 651 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 1: like you're as you mentioned new sources and things like that, 652 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: are you affecting? Are you changing your new sources? Like 653 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,680 Speaker 1: you can do that, and then you know, then the 654 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: step like do you have thirty days worth of savings? Right? 655 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: And if not, maybe you need to learn a new 656 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: skill so you can make some more money. And then 657 00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 1: you know, have you ordered some frozen food or some 658 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: m R E s or whatever? Right? And and then 659 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,879 Speaker 1: you know as far as the ranch, like, um, I've 660 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,840 Speaker 1: had a hard time out here, um finding good like 661 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: ranch hand help, you know, and someone could easily come say, hey, Mark, 662 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 1: I'll run your garden for you and grow a greenhouse 663 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: and manage all your animals and like give me ownership 664 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 1: of some of the fruit of my labor, the crops 665 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: and the animals, and like I would gladly do that. 666 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 1: And so those options are available so you can work 667 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,359 Speaker 1: your way to this. It doesn't have you don't need 668 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,279 Speaker 1: to have sixteen million, as you said, you could have 669 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: sixteen thousand and you could just go off, hey, I'll 670 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: do this for you. We share this with capitalism, So 671 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:44,919 Speaker 1: there's things people can do. Yeah, and doing those things 672 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 1: that I love how you mentioned, like be creative and like, hey, 673 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,919 Speaker 1: if you had someone approach you to be a ranch hand, 674 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: get a little share of the food that's produced. That's 675 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: creative and that takes initiative and self responsibility because guess what, 676 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: the the government doesn't have a online system that makes 677 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 1: it easy to like, oh, I want to volunteer as 678 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: a ranch hand and don't know that's on you. And 679 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 1: just with a little creativity, you can find a lot 680 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: of ways to improve your independence. Yeah, yeah, it doesn't. 681 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,439 Speaker 1: You don't need to have money. And and then each 682 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 1: step leads to the next step, so then it builds, right, 683 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: So good stuff. Um, you've so you've gone step after 684 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: step after step starting with your m R. E. S. 685 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 1: And now you have a ranch and now you're building 686 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 1: that out. I saw you say something about one of 687 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,800 Speaker 1: videos you and maybe it was an off the cuff comment, 688 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 1: but you said free range kids? So what is the 689 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: free range kids? Yeah? Well, first you have to think 690 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,760 Speaker 1: what is the cage? What is the factory farm that 691 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: children are oftentimes stuck in. I think public school system 692 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 1: would probably be part of that. UM controlled thinking could 693 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: be a part of that. TV is part of the cage, 694 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: but also physical constraints. You know, the house we used 695 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: to live in had a nice backyard, but it was 696 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 1: really small. And now, being very blessed to live on 697 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:22,359 Speaker 1: a ranch, I see my little boy just watching him. 698 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,399 Speaker 1: That's where the term came from. I was just observing it, like, oh, 699 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: he's a free range kid, which means the child is 700 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: naturally expressing its true nature. He's he's running up to 701 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,279 Speaker 1: the trees. He can you know, the big yard. It's 702 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 1: all fenced in so he can just roam. He's in 703 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: the dirt, doing what a child is meant to do. 704 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: And we don't have him stuck in front of the TV, 705 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: caging in his mind, relying on something else for entertainment. 706 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 1: That's getting to He's learning to generate his own entertainment 707 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: out of his own being, curiosity, creativity. So that's basically 708 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 1: what I mean, I want to bring it up. I 709 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,760 Speaker 1: think it's so important and so again, Um, you mentioned 710 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,400 Speaker 1: before that maybe maybe we have to fight for freedom 711 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 1: more now than we have before. I'm constantly using a 712 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 1: quote from Ronald Reagan. He says that freedom is never 713 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:24,480 Speaker 1: more than one generation away from being taken it. It 714 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 1: wasn't passed to us but in the bloodline, but it 715 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 1: must be fought for by every single generation. And so, um, 716 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,240 Speaker 1: I think about that the kids. It's all about the kids, 717 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 1: right Like, I'm pouring back into the kids and making 718 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 1: sure that they grew up the right way, making sure 719 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,240 Speaker 1: that they understand what's at stakes so they can continue 720 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 1: to fight for freedom, because if we don't pass that 721 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 1: down to them, then it's lost right there. And back 722 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 1: to kind of what we were just talking about. Um, 723 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 1: good job JP A years so rich. You can live 724 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: on a ranch, But I'm stuck in an apartment in 725 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: a city. What am I going to do? Well, we 726 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 1: have parks. You could get on a bus and get 727 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,280 Speaker 1: out out of town and you know, out of the 728 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 1: city suburban like let them run around in a park, 729 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: or like hiking trails, like I mean, everyone has these 730 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:10,759 Speaker 1: types of options. Yeah, it's just where are you at 731 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 1: and what's the next best option? Not fifty options from now? 732 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:18,439 Speaker 1: You know, walk outside on the sidewalk. That's way more 733 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 1: free range than living room TV. It's maybe not the 734 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: exact ideal true nature expression of a kid walking straightforward 735 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 1: on the sidewalk, but it's way better than being in 736 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 1: front of the TV or like the net. Next episode 737 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: of the sidewalk, We're gonna go a few blocks or 738 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: a couple of miles to the park where it's like 739 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:42,720 Speaker 1: much more three dimensional for the child to express. So, yeah, 740 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 1: it's the only thing that can stop us from taking 741 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 1: steps is us in our own excuses if we believe 742 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 1: what our lower self thinks. And I think maybe to 743 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 1: kind of kind of wrap this up and kind of 744 00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 1: put this message of hope, kind of going back to 745 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 1: what you said, we have the masses, we have God 746 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 1: on our side. You know, their plans, I said, I injected, 747 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 1: the plans don't will fail. But really I love your 748 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,439 Speaker 1: message of kind of like empowering yourself and becoming decentralized 749 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 1: first and fixing yourself first. And another thing I was 750 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 1: kind of thinking about is we we have the masses, 751 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,959 Speaker 1: we have the power but um we have the power 752 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, um Clap Schwab 753 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 1: wants to promote this like public private partnership, which is 754 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 1: uh fascism or corporatis um right, governments and corporations working together. 755 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:34,839 Speaker 1: But corporations actually serve people. They need us to buy 756 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 1: their products. I saw today this morning. I was looking 757 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:40,759 Speaker 1: through the news headlines and there's like another big um 758 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,400 Speaker 1: boycott or walk out happening, you know, and it's like 759 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 1: the people can just not go work there, and the 760 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,440 Speaker 1: people can just not buy those products. And so I 761 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 1: think there's massive hope there. So what what is your 762 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: kind of message of hope? And they're closing words here 763 00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 1: that we have for everybody. Words from Oscar Wilder, which 764 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 1: I love. First off, why Oscar Wilder says life is 765 00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:11,280 Speaker 1: too important to take seriously. So those are the people 766 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 1: who are freedom lovers. They're taking action. If you do 767 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 1: that and you're just serious all the time, seriousness, it's 768 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:24,360 Speaker 1: it's a symptom of fear. You you only take things 769 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 1: seriously when there's an element of fear. Now I do that, 770 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: I take things seriously. But if you're only doing that, 771 00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 1: you have to realize you're not living in a state 772 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 1: of love. You're not living in a state of hope. 773 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 1: You're living in a state of fear. Granted, could be 774 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 1: well intentioned fear, but Oscar Wilder's words, life is too 775 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: important to take seriously. So for me, I always need 776 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 1: the reminder looking around what's going on in the world 777 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:54,839 Speaker 1: and like, oh my god, there's some heavy stuff going on. 778 00:47:56,160 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 1: But also not take it too seriously. That levity, I 779 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 1: think helps helps let hope rise to the surface little easier. 780 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:14,800 Speaker 1: Another common denominator I found between hopeless people and people 781 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 1: filled with hope. Those who don't take action and contribute 782 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 1: to the betterment of their lives and contribute to the 783 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 1: betterment of lives around people. The inaction breeds hopelessness. But 784 00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:32,760 Speaker 1: when you're taking action consistently, doesn't matter if it's small. 785 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 1: It's like, dude, this is I'm raising my children in 786 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 1: a freeway. Nobody else is going to see it, but 787 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: that's why I'm doing. Or your Mark Moss, you're putting 788 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 1: out great content every week, reaching a lot of people, 789 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 1: or you're anywhere in between taking action consistently, many of 790 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:54,240 Speaker 1: those people are way more filled with hope. Why because 791 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 1: they're literally becoming the change they want to see in 792 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,600 Speaker 1: the world. But if you're never doing anything, you have 793 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 1: no that insance something can change because you're not contributing 794 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:09,240 Speaker 1: to change. So people are who are contributing way more hopeful. 795 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 1: So if you feel hopeless, you have to ask what 796 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:16,760 Speaker 1: action can I start taking consistently because that, in my opinion, 797 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:21,239 Speaker 1: more powerfully than anything else. Not perspective or other information, 798 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 1: but action consistently will help take your needle from hopeless 799 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 1: too hopeful. I love it perfect way to end it too, 800 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 1: I say action leads to clarity. So, um, if you 801 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 1: don't know what action to take, just take any action 802 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 1: if you don't know, so just start doing something.
