You're listening and that claim 110 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 2: or or even if it was an active genocide that 111 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 2: would be towards the state, you would be bringing that 112 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: claim against the State of Israel. This particular thing is 113 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 2: an arrest for the person of Nets and Yahoo. 114 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 3: You have committed these. 115 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 2: Now there are other cabinet members right now that's like yo, 116 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 2: which we're gonna do a whole episode on that's like, look, 117 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 2: if you don't change, if you don't change your ways, 118 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 2: I'm stepping down.

You're all gas, no breaks, Like, 123 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: what are we doing? 124 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 3: Bro? This is absurd. 125 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 2: So there's like a split even among the Israeli government 126 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: that like everybody don't agree, which should for some of 127 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 2: us feel good to hear that they not united as 128 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: a government in what they're doing.

Yeah, I need that like 340 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,360 Speaker 2: that Like I'm like, huh, I yes, anyway, go on. 341 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that for me, WOKF started out the 342 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 5: show started out of anger. It was a response to 343 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 5: Donald Trump becoming president of the United States. So the 344 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 5: show launched in twenty sixteen or twenty seventeen rather And 345 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 5: what I will say is that for me, I wanted 346 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 5: people to recognize that they have more power than they think, 347 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 5: right that this game that these white, old, you know, 348 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 5: rich straight men are playing, it is a game about power, 349 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 5: and the way that they take power from you is 350 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 5: to make you believe you have right. And so my 351 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 5: show has always been about raising consciousness. 352 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 6: Like no, no, no, no, no. 353 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 5: You see why your school board looks the way it does, 354 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 5: it's because you didn't show up to the school board. Meaning, 355 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 5: but you know who always shows up, the seventy year 356 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 5: old racist white people that live in your neighborhood. They're 357 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 5: the ones that are always going to show up because 358 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 5: they have time and they are making and they are 359 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 5: making the time to do it right. So the reason 360 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 5: why certain things look the way they do is because 361 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 5: those people they are they are committed to their racism, 362 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 5: they are committed to hatred, and they will do and 363 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 5: stop at nothing in order to make sure that the 364 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 5: system remains the way it is. So for me, it's 365 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 5: about raising people's consciousness and saying no, no, no, no, no, yes. 366 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 5: The place that we're in is incredibly overwhelming and incredibly 367 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 5: dark and incredibly frustrating, But at the end of the day, 368 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 5: we have more numbers. We have the numbers. We have 369 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 5: the people right, the people just need to wake to 370 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 5: wake the fun up. 371 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 3: Wake up. 372 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 2: Yeah you I love that you called it well one 373 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 2: because like it's before the name was stolen from a. 374 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:12,120 Speaker 6: Fire, right like it was before if it came like. 375 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, before they stole it and redefined it, which is 376 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 2: another thing that they do, which is another like move 377 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 2: of power to like take something that sounds familiar and 378 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,959 Speaker 2: redefine it and then give it back to us as 379 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 2: if we don't know what we talk about, you know. 380 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 2: So I love that you like kept the name to 381 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 2: be like no, no, no, no, no, you don't you don't 382 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 2: get it, you don't.

But if Trump gets in, 630 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 5: do you think that people truly understand what will happen? 631 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 5: Do you think that the consequences like that, or that 632 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 5: they think that we'll just be able to hang on 633 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 5: like we did in the first four years. 634 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 4: No. 635 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 3: I think I come from. 636 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 2: Like history, social science, like educational background, and when you 637 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 2: come from that, it's like I can name off hand 638 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 2: ten democracies that collapsed, like it happens all the time. 639 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 2: Democracies collapse, you know, and nations collapse and they rebuild. 640 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 3: I think that. 641 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 2: I find that any predictions are usually off the mark 642 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: in either direction. Like you know, I feel like it's 643 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,760 Speaker 2: not like the day after he gets elected the world's 644 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 2: going to go up in flames, and it's also not 645 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 2: like nothing's going to happen, you know what I'm saying. Like, 646 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:43,800 Speaker 2: I think that the slow crawl, which clearly started decades 647 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:48,760 Speaker 2: ago into the collapse of the American democracy and it'll 648 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 2: become something else later. But you know, the idea of 649 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 2: an autocratic you know, dictator, which he is, is like 650 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 2: this happens all over the world all the time. You 651 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. It's the death of an empire. 652 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 2: It's really we're really watching the slow death of an empire. 653 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:08,399 Speaker 3: It is what it is. 654 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 2: I don't think people really understand what that means and 655 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 2: how it looks, and then how long it's gonna take 656 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 2: to if we'll ever become an empire again, you know, 657 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 2: I don't. I think that people have a much like 658 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 2: shorter understanding of history than they than they should, you know, 659 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 2: which to me actually gives me a little peace in 660 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 2: the sense that like there is such thing as France, 661 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 2: like Greece is still a country, you know what I'm saying, 662 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 2: Like those were collapsed to democracies, like they've collapsed, you 663 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 2: know what I mean. Now, I mean it still exists, 664 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. So I think in some senses, 665 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 2: having a longer view of history, Like I'm like, in 666 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 2: the same way that like when the meteor, the asteroid 667 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 2: that killed the dinosaur struck, you know, it wiped out 668 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 2: life and then Earth was fine. 669 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. 670 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 2: I think that there is there is that like it 671 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 2: ultimately will be fine. 672 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 3: Will we survive it? 673 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if we're gonna survive correct. 674 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, but I do think, Yeah, I think 675 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 2: that like Trump in the sense again going back to 676 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 2: like why like I think hoods does like recognize it 677 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,799 Speaker 2: is like he's like, I'm gonna do what I said. 678 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna do, like I told y'all day one, I'm 679 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 2: finna black and fools. 680 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 3: Up like that. I don't understand. I told you that's 681 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:39,879 Speaker 3: what I was gonna do. And I was like, yes, 682 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 3: he did what he said he was gonna do. 683 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 4: You know. 684 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 3: So I think that there's that reality. 685 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 2: I think also think the reality that people are not 686 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 2: accepting is the fact that he might win. That is 687 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 2: a high possibility that he is, that he will win 688 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 2: this election. Now he's I also get frustrated with the 689 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 2: fact that people talk like he like y'all forget he 690 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 2: lost twenty twenty, like he didn't.
