WEBVTT - New American Oligarchy

0:00:11.720 --> 0:00:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, peeps, and welcome to ok F Daily with

0:00:14.560 --> 0:00:18.480
<v Speaker 1>me your Girl daniel Moody recording from the Home Bunker.

0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:24.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, folks, this week, I feel like we are

0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:31.520
<v Speaker 1>just spiraling out of control, Like as a country, as

0:00:31.560 --> 0:00:36.080
<v Speaker 1>a world, I really do feel like most of us

0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:39.840
<v Speaker 1>are hanging on for dear life. I talked about this

0:00:40.080 --> 0:00:43.159
<v Speaker 1>on The Danielle Moody Show one of the episodes that

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:48.159
<v Speaker 1>I entitled The United States of Dystopia, And it's this

0:00:48.360 --> 0:00:52.720
<v Speaker 1>feeling that everything that we've been told, right, like, think

0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:56.360
<v Speaker 1>about the things that you've been taught since you were

0:00:56.400 --> 0:01:01.600
<v Speaker 1>in grade school, you know, to be kind, to be empathetic,

0:01:01.840 --> 0:01:05.240
<v Speaker 1>like you know, right versus wrong, you know, setting a

0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 1>moral compass, like all of these things, sharing right, Like

0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:14.920
<v Speaker 1>all of these things are principles that were to lead

0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:20.479
<v Speaker 1>us to educate us on being kind, good humans. And

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 1>what we see is that like that was all just

0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:29.959
<v Speaker 1>one big fucking gag because it is the greedy, the vile,

0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 1>the monstrous, the hateful that succeed. Whether you were looking

0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:41.960
<v Speaker 1>at the murder of the CEO of United Healthcare and

0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:45.679
<v Speaker 1>the fact that this man was in the midst of

0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:49.400
<v Speaker 1>insider trading that had his claim to fame as a

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:53.000
<v Speaker 1>great CEO is having denied tens of millions of people

0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 1>healthcare coverage when they needed it so that he could

0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:59.200
<v Speaker 1>pocket the money as well as his shareholders. That these

0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:03.320
<v Speaker 1>are people that don't stock again to enrich themselves off

0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:07.280
<v Speaker 1>of the despair of other people. But he's at the

0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:10.480
<v Speaker 1>top of the pyramid. You look at Elon Musk, whose

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.640
<v Speaker 1>fortune is like teetering on, you know, being into the

0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:16.880
<v Speaker 1>trillions of dollars, and he's being labeled as a genius

0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:20.359
<v Speaker 1>because of his amassed wealth and not a greedy son

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:24.280
<v Speaker 1>of a bitch right, who hates people, who hates freedom

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:27.720
<v Speaker 1>of speech, who hates trans people, but he is celebrated.

0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:30.320
<v Speaker 1>You look at Donald Trump, who has been named to

0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:33.000
<v Speaker 1>be the Person of the Year by Time magazine, which

0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:36.520
<v Speaker 1>we know is not necessarily an award, but it is

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:42.079
<v Speaker 1>recognition again of the vileness that has ushered him into

0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:46.160
<v Speaker 1>office yet again. And you know, when you sit and

0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:48.560
<v Speaker 1>you look, it's just like, why are we teaching young

0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.080
<v Speaker 1>people to be decent? Why are we teaching them to

0:02:51.080 --> 0:02:53.680
<v Speaker 1>be kind? And as a matter of fact, the words

0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:56.440
<v Speaker 1>that come out of our mouth are very contrary to

0:02:56.480 --> 0:02:58.920
<v Speaker 1>the actions that are taken by those around them that

0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:02.680
<v Speaker 1>they see and they see, notably what success is supposed

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:05.240
<v Speaker 1>to look like. You know, I was at an event

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:08.400
<v Speaker 1>the other day, and this is how folks. I also

0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:11.560
<v Speaker 1>know that like, I am old right because I believe

0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:15.520
<v Speaker 1>in those virtues of like empathy and kindness, of like,

0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, engaging in things like conversation that leave you

0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:25.480
<v Speaker 1>feeling nourished and recognizing like that's just not where we are.

0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:29.720
<v Speaker 1>I went to this event where you know, I honestly

0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:32.880
<v Speaker 1>I was surrounded by like twenty somethings. And this is

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:36.920
<v Speaker 1>not like an admonishment on the younger generation, It's just

0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 1>an observation where you know, I remember going to you know,

0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 1>company events, networking events, you know, congressional receptions, et cetera,

0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:49.680
<v Speaker 1>et cetera, when I was in my twenties, and the

0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>whole point, right was to network, right, was to connect,

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.720
<v Speaker 1>broaden out your network, which would then help you right

0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>moving forward in in your career. And I go to

0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:09.040
<v Speaker 1>this event for a you know, an online magazine, and

0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:12.240
<v Speaker 1>there was no conversation that was being had between people

0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:15.000
<v Speaker 1>except for the people that you came with. There was

0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 1>just a parade of folks with their phones and selfie

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:25.240
<v Speaker 1>lighting and creating content just in every corner as individuals,

0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:29.680
<v Speaker 1>not as like a collective, right, And again there was

0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 1>no there wasn't even any necessarily any branding that was

0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 1>out that would tell you who this event was being

0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:39.480
<v Speaker 1>thrown by, or like why you should care about it.

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:42.960
<v Speaker 1>It was just happened to be in an instagrammable restaurant

0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:47.360
<v Speaker 1>and that's all that people were doing, not talking to

0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 1>each other. So there was like why are you even here?

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 1>You know? And that's kind of where like I know

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 1>that that's just it's like why are you even here?

0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:00.880
<v Speaker 1>It's not to connect with other people. It's not to

0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:04.479
<v Speaker 1>engage with people. It's to engage with like, you know,

0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:09.080
<v Speaker 1>these imaginary followers that you'll never actually meet in real life.

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:12.159
<v Speaker 1>Most likely, it's to show people how great and how

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:15.240
<v Speaker 1>cool and how slicky you are. Look at where I am,

0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:18.800
<v Speaker 1>and all of it is just like one big fucking illusion.

0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 1>And so like I found myself sitting there and I'm

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.240
<v Speaker 1>just looking around, and I you know, and I was

0:05:25.279 --> 0:05:27.800
<v Speaker 1>a marker for me of a moment when you realize that,

0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:31.560
<v Speaker 1>like you're old, right, because like I care about conversation,

0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:34.599
<v Speaker 1>I care about the content that people are putting out

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:39.760
<v Speaker 1>and folks are ingesting and like that was not the thing,

0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:43.760
<v Speaker 1>that was not the vibe. You know, I care about

0:05:44.080 --> 0:05:48.040
<v Speaker 1>who we highlight, who we put a spotlight on as

0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:50.960
<v Speaker 1>like you know, the person of the year or like,

0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:55.119
<v Speaker 1>and again it has nothing to do with what good

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>people are doing, because good is not actually celebrated in

0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:04.360
<v Speaker 1>this country or rewarded. It's those that have like that

0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:09.279
<v Speaker 1>are so self serving, so self involved, so fucking greedy.

0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Those are the ones that get the most followers. Those

0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:16.280
<v Speaker 1>are the ones that get elected. It isn't about like

0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:19.680
<v Speaker 1>who is doing good and how to model that, And

0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:23.360
<v Speaker 1>I just I honestly, it had me just really thinking

0:06:23.440 --> 0:06:27.560
<v Speaker 1>this week about what kind of society we will live

0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:30.600
<v Speaker 1>in moving forward. And I do think that it is

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.880
<v Speaker 1>not going to be community based at all. I do

0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:37.520
<v Speaker 1>think that it is going to be every person for themselves,

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:42.280
<v Speaker 1>a dog eat dog type of dystopia where we could

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:45.720
<v Speaker 1>give a shit less about who lives next door and

0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:48.600
<v Speaker 1>down the street and how we can be of service

0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:52.680
<v Speaker 1>and of help like that being of service right is

0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:57.000
<v Speaker 1>going to be something that goes extinct. And I just

0:06:57.080 --> 0:07:01.760
<v Speaker 1>think that we're going to experience just this hardening of

0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:06.280
<v Speaker 1>our spirit, of our hearts of our connection, because what

0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:10.840
<v Speaker 1>we see being rewarded are people that do the exact

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.880
<v Speaker 1>and total opposite of the lessons that we were taught

0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:18.200
<v Speaker 1>in elementary school. So it's like, you know, whether or

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:23.760
<v Speaker 1>not you're directing kids to model themselves after Donald Trump

0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:27.520
<v Speaker 1>and Elon Musk and others, you know, by virtue of

0:07:27.560 --> 0:07:32.400
<v Speaker 1>who is celebrated and the fact that we adore like

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:36.640
<v Speaker 1>just you know, the adoration for wealth. I mean, we're

0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:40.680
<v Speaker 1>just so we're bankrupt everywhere else. I don't know what

0:07:40.760 --> 0:07:43.320
<v Speaker 1>the answer is. I don't know how to bring us

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:49.400
<v Speaker 1>back to a place where kindness and empathy and generosity

0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:55.320
<v Speaker 1>is celebrated. The fact is is that I don't think

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.240
<v Speaker 1>that we're ever going to get back to that place right,

0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 1>and I think that that is where I find myself struggling.

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:12.600
<v Speaker 1>Is the way to combat the onslaught of hatred, vitriol, harshness.

0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:15.520
<v Speaker 1>The only way to combat that is going to be

0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:21.800
<v Speaker 1>through collective love, joy, empathy, and community building. Because the

0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:28.200
<v Speaker 1>way that fascism and authoritarianism takes hold is by pitting

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.920
<v Speaker 1>people against each other, is by creating this false sense

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:36.680
<v Speaker 1>of scarcity, is by having neighbor turn against neighbor. But

0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:40.600
<v Speaker 1>if you see now through the environment, through like the

0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:45.840
<v Speaker 1>lens of like extreme capitalism, where you know, as was

0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 1>said with the movie Wall Street back in the eighties

0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 1>Gordon Gecko, greed is good. Not only is greed good

0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:58.440
<v Speaker 1>right as seen in this country, but it is elevated right.

0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:03.240
<v Speaker 1>It is made to be the model that we should

0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:08.959
<v Speaker 1>all aspire to. And so, knowing this, and people continue

0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:11.320
<v Speaker 1>to ask me, Danielle, then what do we do? What

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:15.520
<v Speaker 1>do we do? And I'm like, you got to start locally.

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:20.720
<v Speaker 1>You have to, you know, define for yourself, for your family,

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:24.320
<v Speaker 1>for your friends, Like really, what is what is your

0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:30.600
<v Speaker 1>moral compass? What connects you and keeps you grounded in goodness?

0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:35.880
<v Speaker 1>And you know, the whole purpose now is to turn

0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:43.040
<v Speaker 1>these self serving, you know, greedy oligarchs into our new

0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:47.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, kings and queens that like we serve at

0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:51.280
<v Speaker 1>their pleasure, and if we kiss the ring and we obey,

0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:55.280
<v Speaker 1>then maybe they'll show some kindness on us. Maybe they'll

0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:58.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, throw a few coins our way, and then

0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:01.280
<v Speaker 1>those coins that we are able to grab then make

0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:03.920
<v Speaker 1>us just a little bit better than those that are

0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:07.480
<v Speaker 1>below us, you see. And that's the goal and the

0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:11.360
<v Speaker 1>role and so if you know the game right ahead

0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:14.839
<v Speaker 1>of time, like you can decide to opt out of

0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:20.360
<v Speaker 1>it and opt into building real relationships, opt into finding

0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:24.520
<v Speaker 1>value in things that are internal rather than external. All

0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:29.000
<v Speaker 1>these people want is attention and adoration, And what if

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.520
<v Speaker 1>we were to decide that we're not going to give

0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 1>it to them, We're not going to bestow it to them.

0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:36.640
<v Speaker 1>And I think that in a twisted, weird way, we're

0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:41.520
<v Speaker 1>seeing that happen with this, with the celebration of this

0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 1>alleged shooter. You're seeing people really look through a lens

0:10:48.800 --> 0:10:53.880
<v Speaker 1>that is allowing us to really critique how we got

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 1>to this place in the first place. Like I said this,

0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:01.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, on on the episode of The New Abnormal,

0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:05.640
<v Speaker 1>which is out today as well, and I said, you know,

0:11:05.679 --> 0:11:09.600
<v Speaker 1>with my co host Andy, I was just like, the

0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:15.960
<v Speaker 1>problem that the media is having around this shooter, Luigi Maggione,

0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 1>this alleged shooter, is that they can't just shrug their

0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:27.800
<v Speaker 1>shoulders and say he was crazy, right, like, oh, he's

0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:31.559
<v Speaker 1>insane and this is just you know, and brush him off.

0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:35.080
<v Speaker 1>It's like, no, he was educated in the same you know,

0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:40.000
<v Speaker 1>elite systems. He comes from a wealthy family, is in fact,

0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:44.760
<v Speaker 1>a rich, you know, white man who you know, by

0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:50.040
<v Speaker 1>virtue of having his own pain right, his own chronic pain,

0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:55.320
<v Speaker 1>started to look at this system that profits off of

0:11:55.400 --> 0:11:59.439
<v Speaker 1>his pain and profits off of everyone's pain, and that

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:03.200
<v Speaker 1>really strike a chord. You know, if you looked at

0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:08.040
<v Speaker 1>his alleged manifesto, it was one that like doesn't read

0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:11.720
<v Speaker 1>like a crazy person like these other manifestos that we've

0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:14.839
<v Speaker 1>seen where people are hailing Donald Trump after they shoot

0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:17.520
<v Speaker 1>up a synagogue or a church or what have you,

0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:21.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, because of their racism and their hatred and

0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:25.040
<v Speaker 1>their bodas. It's like, no, you can't look at this

0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:30.760
<v Speaker 1>system and say that people can only as Elizabeth Warren stated,

0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:34.280
<v Speaker 1>and that she's receiving pushback for people can only be

0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:39.920
<v Speaker 1>pushed so far. And right now, billionaires who are trying

0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:44.160
<v Speaker 1>to create this new American oligarchy are going to push

0:12:44.280 --> 0:12:47.480
<v Speaker 1>people to their breaking point. As the saying goes, when

0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing left to eat, you eat the rich. Right

0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:54.280
<v Speaker 1>when there's no more appeals to be made to those

0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:59.240
<v Speaker 1>that gleefully rejoice in your suffering, than you're going to

0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:04.960
<v Speaker 1>takestic radical action. I say that, you know, violence is

0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:07.439
<v Speaker 1>not the answer, but it seems to be the only

0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:11.360
<v Speaker 1>answer that America actually listens to. You can't look at

0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:16.920
<v Speaker 1>this country whose founding was steeped in violence, right, and

0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:21.120
<v Speaker 1>then look at people for celebrating this shooter and say, oh,

0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:25.640
<v Speaker 1>you're depraved, really, because I think that denying healthcare to

0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:28.280
<v Speaker 1>millions of people who pay into a system that is

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:32.520
<v Speaker 1>essentially a Ponzi scheme is fucking depraved. I think that

0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 1>sending weapons that murder children and women and innocent civilians

0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:44.520
<v Speaker 1>and saying that this is justified is fucking depraved. America

0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:48.080
<v Speaker 1>is being revealed in this moment, and it feels like

0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:50.880
<v Speaker 1>things are being turned upside down. But I really don't

0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:53.000
<v Speaker 1>think that they are. I think that they've never been

0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:55.640
<v Speaker 1>right side up. I think that we have been fed

0:13:55.679 --> 0:14:01.000
<v Speaker 1>and narrative that has this belief that if we just

0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:04.560
<v Speaker 1>work hard enough, right, if we just do good and

0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:09.120
<v Speaker 1>do right, then you too can reap the rewards of

0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:14.040
<v Speaker 1>this parasitic capitalistic system. And that is not the truth.

0:14:14.800 --> 0:14:17.400
<v Speaker 1>The people with the immense amount of wealth in this country,

0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:21.080
<v Speaker 1>they didn't fucking work for it. It was inherited. Right.

0:14:21.120 --> 0:14:24.040
<v Speaker 1>So when people say like, oh, I'm you know, I'm

0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:27.240
<v Speaker 1>wake up and rise and grind and like, hustle so

0:14:27.360 --> 0:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>hard and blah blah blah, you know, to make my

0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:35.560
<v Speaker 1>way into being a millionaire or a billionaire. It's like, nah,

0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:38.840
<v Speaker 1>you were just born into the wrong family because those

0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:44.000
<v Speaker 1>people did not hustle hard. They inherited stolen wealth and

0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:48.160
<v Speaker 1>profits from other people, and we were told to again

0:14:49.120 --> 0:14:53.720
<v Speaker 1>adore them, to aspire to them. You know, it wasn't

0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:57.920
<v Speaker 1>until I'll tell you this, the marriage of Megan and

0:14:58.040 --> 0:15:04.040
<v Speaker 1>Prince Harry right and the treatment that she received from

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:09.200
<v Speaker 1>the royal family, from the people of the UK and

0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:11.960
<v Speaker 1>the media there, that it took a lot of folks

0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:15.960
<v Speaker 1>to realize, why aren't we fucking celebrating this royal family

0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:20.240
<v Speaker 1>to begin with? These people who have a mass their

0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:24.480
<v Speaker 1>wealth on the backs and deaths and murder and torture

0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:30.080
<v Speaker 1>and thieving that they have done for generations. But somehow

0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 1>we're like, oh my god, look their royalty there. You know,

0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:35.680
<v Speaker 1>they're blue bloods, they're this, that and the other thing.

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>They're craven, they're craven. But they go and they've conquered

0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:43.840
<v Speaker 1>and colonized and made the very people that they conquered

0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:48.600
<v Speaker 1>and colonized worship them. Oh, look at their philanthropy. Look

0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:52.640
<v Speaker 1>at their fucking philanthropy. You mean that they stole and

0:15:52.760 --> 0:16:00.080
<v Speaker 1>extracted and then they sprinkle around stolen goods and we

0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:07.280
<v Speaker 1>called that philanthropy. All we've ever done is celebrate the villain.

0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:10.240
<v Speaker 1>But you would know that they were villains because they

0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:13.320
<v Speaker 1>have been the author of the story, contorting it to

0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:18.760
<v Speaker 1>fit their end. So if you're looking for leadership and

0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:21.680
<v Speaker 1>for those to be a moral compass, you need look

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:26.160
<v Speaker 1>no further than yourself, because I see no one around

0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:29.560
<v Speaker 1>us that we should be aspiring to. They are setting

0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:33.160
<v Speaker 1>a prime example of everything that is actually wrong, and

0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:36.800
<v Speaker 1>it's disheartening. But the minute that we turn our eyeballs

0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:42.200
<v Speaker 1>and our dollars away from those that do us harm,

0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.680
<v Speaker 1>they will cease to have power. And that's what we

0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:52.240
<v Speaker 1>need to remember. That is it for me today, Dear

0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:56.360
<v Speaker 1>friends on wok af As always power to the people

0:16:56.480 --> 0:17:00.160
<v Speaker 1>and to all the people. Power, Yet woke and stay

0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:01.040
<v Speaker 1>woke as fock
