They need to be able to, you know, 65 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 2: in a very respectful manner. At least I should be 66 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 2: able to if you ask, give you an appropriate you know, 67 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 2: for your age and your development, reason as to what 68 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: I'm doing.

Hopefully 75 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 2: I'm handing you I've done my job to hand these 76 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: future people in their life a more developed and evolved 77 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 2: human that is willing to admit their mistakes and is 78 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: willing to be held accountable and just doesn't repeat toxic 79 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: practices of power. So this episode is a part two 80 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 2: about the Scotis, the Supreme Court of the United States. 81 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: Does a scotis stands for? If you didn't know that 82 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 2: Supreme Court of the United States scotis anyway, I just 83 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: figured i'd let you know that if you didn't already know. 84 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: They've been in our headlines for a while over a 85 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,679 Speaker 2: few of the things that they've ruled on and also 86 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 2: some of the off mic practices Justice Alita and Justice 87 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 2: Clarence Thomas. So today I'm gonna talk about how they 88 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 2: kind of like they broke their mold and started defending 89 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 2: some of their moves. And the funny part with Justice 90 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 2: a leader, it was like he preempted the defense. You know, 91 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: he kind of hit us with what had happened was 92 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 2: and really in a lot of ways like they've never 93 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 2: had to do that.

And I'm going back to this man 171 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: named Robert Borke because his name became slang it's so 172 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 2: crazy to be right. And then I'm gonna move forward 173 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 2: to what we're dealing with now. So again, so Ronald 174 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 2: Reagan had nominated this dude, Robert Borke, to join the 175 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 2: Supreme Court. Now he was supposed to be this conservative 176 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 2: home home run, like he gonna be our dude. We're 177 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 2: gonna make sure this go down right now. Since again 178 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 2: this became a game of sort of like partisan gainsmanship. 179 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 2: If you put a dude up, it's our job if 180 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: we on the other team to drag this nigga, I 181 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 2: need to drag you in public. But remember again, before this, 182 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 2: it wasn't about dragging a person. It was about like 183 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 2: making sure this person was qualified. Well, let me ask 184 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 2: you some question. It was more like a job interview. 185 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,719 Speaker 2: When you stood up in front of the Congress, it 186 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 2: was a job interview. It's like I just need to 187 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 2: make sure you are who you say you are. Can 188 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 2: you really do this job? You know? 189 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: And I want to know how. 190 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 2: You think about stuff, like like for real, for real, 191 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 2: like how do you really think about stuff? But what 192 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 2: happened with Bork was Democrats had that game on. They 193 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 2: was like, who oh, nigga, we got this, And guests 194 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 2: who opened up the grilling of him, Joseph Robin at Biden, 195 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 2: he'd the dude that grilled him. He the dude that 196 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: supposedly grilled Clarence Thomas but he ain't grilled him hard enough. 197 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 2: But we're not talking about that just yet, right, So 198 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 2: Bork came on and Joe Biden went after him like hard, 199 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 2: like no mercy. This supposed to be softball, because we 200 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 2: didn't already like we all on the same team here, right, 201 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 2: aren't we? We three branches of government? 202 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: Nigga know we not? 203 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 2: So he went after him and went after him because 204 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 2: Borck had this law theory that at the time wasn't 205 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: so normal, wasn't so pervasive as it is now. He 206 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: was what we now know as an originalist, a constitutionalist. 207 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 2: Before that, nobody knew what this was and what his 208 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: theory was. The only true way to interpret and understand 209 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 2: the law is to think of it in terms of 210 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 2: the way that the writers of the Constitution had intended. 211 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: What did they believe this meant? 212 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 2: Is the way I Am going to adjudicate anything from 213 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 2: here on out because they wrote it. Now this may 214 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 2: sound familiar to you because it's now it's it's sort 215 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 2: of synonymous with conservative thought. 216 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: What the what? What did the founders mean? 217 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 3: Right? 218 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 2: I'm a strict constitutionalist because and and if and on 219 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 2: the service it's like, well, yeah, nigga, they wrote it. 220 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 2: So like if we are turbet like what am I supposed? 221 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 2: I can't put words in their mouth right now. Look, 222 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 2: if you grew up around any church circles, some buzz, 223 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 2: some buzz should be happening in your brain right now, 224 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 2: because that's that's a theological stance. Right. 225 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: What did the writers of the Bible mean? 226 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 2: Right? 227 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 1: If you've been a man of church, like. 228 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 2: That's I mean, that's that's how you're supposed. 229 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: To interpret the Bible. 230 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 2: You ain't supposed to read your own answer into this, 231 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 2: right unless you come from other traditions that are like no, 232 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 2: you got to have your raim a word you know 233 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 2: that's real black, you know, I mean that's your word 234 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 2: right now. Right. 235 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: But again, here's. 236 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 2: Where some of those some of some of the some 237 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 2: of the problems come in if you come from church. 238 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 2: Here where some of the problems come in is like 239 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 2: the church don't tell you. Bible don't tell you about 240 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: wearing a watch. Bible don't tell you about what to 241 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 2: do on the internet because it wasn't there. Now you're 242 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 2: gonna get real mad at me, especially when I start 243 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: talking about homosexuality. Bible don't talk about it the way 244 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: you say it, talk about it. 245 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: Now. 246 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 2: I'm just you just got to read the book. You 247 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: don't be mad at me now, I'm just look, I'm 248 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 2: just reading the thing. 249 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: You feel me. 250 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: But anyway, the point I'm trying to tell you is 251 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 2: the way that this guy's interpreting the Constitution. Again, if 252 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 2: you're talking about this Christian nationalism thing, it would mean 253 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 2: that the way that people read. 254 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: The Bible's probably the same thing. 255 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 2: Now, what happens with that you come up with Sometimes 256 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 2: if that's the only way you read your scripture, you're 257 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 2: gonna have a lot of times some very repressive and 258 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 2: backwards and and convenient beliefs that come out of interpreting 259 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 2: scripture that way. Oh man, I'm mean, the same happens 260 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 2: with the Constitution. And in their mind they're saying, well, 261 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 2: the founders actually built in stuff for the future, for 262 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 2: the things that they didn't understand. That's called the Bill 263 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 2: of Rights, like the amendments the Bill of Rights, or 264 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 2: like are the are the amendments? 265 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: Right? 266 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 2: So? And Thomas Jefferson is he as a saying around 267 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 2: that or a quote from him where he was just like, 268 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 2: I'm not going to say it directly, but the idea 269 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 2: is like to hold our like future descendants accountable to 270 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: our thinking is like making a man where the coat 271 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 2: that he wore as a boy, than to submit him 272 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 2: to our barbarism. 273 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: Basically, he's saying, listen, it's stuff. 274 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 2: We can't think of, and to make them do what 275 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: we did like we don't like look, we knuckle dragon 276 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 2: like men according to what the future is gonna be. 277 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: So don't hold them accountable. Don't make them. Do you 278 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying? They don't need to be stuck 279 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 2: to the rules that we thinking of, Like I can't 280 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 2: imagine what the future gonna be like, is what Thomas 281 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 2: Jefferson was trying to say. So these strict constitutionalists say that, well, 282 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 2: we've accounted for that, and that's in the Bill of Rights, 283 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 2: that's in the the amendments. So you add an amendment 284 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 2: for stuff that we didn't know we was gonna need. 285 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 2: But I'm gonna interpret the documents based on what the 286 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 2: documents say. 287 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was like, Nigga, what the what are you 288 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: talking about? 289 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 2: So according to your world, if we're gonna say what 290 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 2: the founders meant, then women ain't voting. We still got slaves. 291 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 2: You can't drink into the same drinking fountain. Nigga like that, 292 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 2: what do you know, bro, Like he's looking at the 293 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 2: thing that Thomas Jefferson said and said, even Thomas Jefferson 294 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 2: think you tripping.

Sometimes the judges be like sitting 340 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: in front of the Congress, and what sucks is like 341 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 2: but the Congress, right, they check you know I'm saying. 342 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 2: So it's like, you're gonna ask me what I think 343 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 2: about something, You ain't gonna understand the answer anyway. Even 344 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 2: if I'm trying to tell you like this the way 345 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about this thing, you didn't already look, you 346 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: just trying to score points with your team anyway. And 347 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 2: even if you were genuinely trying to do this, you 348 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 2: wasn't in the gym with me. The gym is in 349 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 2: the library, you know what I'm saying. You wasn't digging 350 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 2: in them crates. You wasn't in them archives being able 351 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 2: to understand all these different cases. And he's like a 352 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 2: precedence and how to interpret these precedents. You wasn't outside 353 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 2: with us. So even if I explain to you, yo, 354 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 2: this is where I land on this. I don't understand 355 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 2: why I gotta go. You ain't gonna get it. It'd 356 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:03,879 Speaker 2: be so interesting watching them try to explain themselves to 357 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 2: people that you know, I ain't gonna understand you. 358 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: But you know what, that's the job. 359 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 2: Because fast forward to where we are now and what 360 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 2: happens once you get the job. You're gonna have to 361 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 2: explain to the people why y'all chose this. There's one 362 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 2: of the judges gonna have to write what's you know, 363 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 2: their opinion piece, and then the other one writes the 364 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 2: dissenting opinion piece because since they don't always agree, somebody's 365 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 2: got to say what they don't agree about. 366 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: And it's for the record. 367 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 2: For the record, let me tell y'all, I ain't really 368 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 2: rock with whatever this nigga said. This is why, right, 369 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 2: I got to explain to these people who don't sign 370 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 2: my check or marinate my chicken what I'm thinking about 371 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 2: and how I got there, But how you got there 372 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 2: and the way you're thinking about this goes all the 373 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 2: way back, like we said last week, as to how 374 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 2: you understand the law and how you came to understand 375 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 2: the law and what you think your purpose is in 376 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 2: this position. You ever hear that phrase activist judges? 377 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: That's usually what. 378 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 2: People say when they don't like the way that the 379 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 2: person is voting. They call you an activist judge. Right, 380 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 2: I just don't know how else you can be on there. 381 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 2: That's that might be a controversial take. Well, the judges 382 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 2: ain't supposed to be political. It's a political process. I 383 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,239 Speaker 2: don't I know, it ain't supposed to be, but it is. 384 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 2: But what's crazy about the Supreme Court specifically? It's like, look, 385 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 2: I ain't gonta explain nothing to you. Let's talk about 386 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 2: Justice Leader and Clarence Thomas.

Now if you listen 395 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 2: to the uh we did a Behind the Bastards episode 396 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 2: about him, where his like weird obsession with porn and 397 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 2: his interpretation of what it means to be a black 398 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:41,120 Speaker 2: nationalist or believe in black liberation. It's a weird way 399 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 2: he comes to this. Now, you bring this up because 400 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 2: of what came out about his private life and then 401 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 2: the way he voted about affirmative action. To understand that 402 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,479 Speaker 2: is means you got to understand him. He grew up 403 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 2: dirt poor, His mama had to give him up to 404 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: go live with his granddaddy, who was just old school 405 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 2: southern you know what I'm saying, got it out the 406 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 2: mud type fighter, right, And and you come from that 407 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 2: part of Georgia that he come from and be his age. 408 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 2: Ain't no way in the world he don't believe racism 409 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,360 Speaker 2: is real. Right? 410 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: His difference is what are the solutions now? 411 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 2: But to go back again, raised by his granddaddy, went 412 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 2: to this private Catholic school for a while, obviously got 413 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,199 Speaker 2: picked on. You know, you in that white space, you 414 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 2: gonna see racism in an area in a way that 415 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 2: like even I can't relate to. Like, the type of 416 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 2: racism that man experience is something that like is I 417 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 2: can't imagine what this man experienced. And then your solution 418 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 2: is because of the time and area that he's in 419 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 2: is you become a revolutionary. You start following Malcolm X, 420 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 2: you're like, look, nigga, burn this shit down right. And 421 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 2: some of y'all may not notice, but Claire Thomas used 422 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 2: to be like that type of revolutionary. And what you 423 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 2: might not know about Malcolm X is there's a lot 424 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 2: of stuff about that version of black liberation that in 425 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 2: some ways mirrors black conservatism in this sense, in a 426 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 2: very unique sense. Not in like a nationalism Margie Taylor 427 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 2: Green type way, no, but it's more like, listen, these 428 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 2: people will never love us, they'll never help us, they 429 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 2: will always look down at us. It's specifically the white liberal. 430 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 2: Now there is a phrase. There's a thing that Malcolm 431 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 2: X talked about. He was like, be aware of the 432 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 2: white liberal because they don't think they're doing you a favor. 433 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: But it's paternalistic. 434 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 2: When he moves through this revolutionary type situation, he starts realizing, like, yo, man, 435 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 2: the only way I can't change the system from the outside, 436 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 2: I got to change the system from within. I want 437 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 2: to go do law, but I don't want to just 438 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 2: do law around black issues, because that's still very pejorative, 439 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 2: Like you think I only care about this you don't 440 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 2: think I'm a full person need to be viewed as 441 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 2: a full person. I want to do all kind of law. 442 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 2: Why you only because that's what happened is like? And 443 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 2: who hasn't experienced this, especially if you're black and you 444 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 2: got some sort of education or every woman understands this 445 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 2: right that whenever they want you to talk, you supposed 446 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 2: to only talk about women issues. They're like, you don't 447 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 2: understand nothing else. So Clarence Thomas was like dog like 448 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 2: every time, y'all when I say I want to do law. 449 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 2: You think I want to do civil rights, I'm like, nigga, 450 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 2: I like the law period. Like you just saying that 451 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 2: because that's a type of racism. And he say the 452 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,439 Speaker 2: same thing happened when he finally got into Harvard, and 453 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 2: in his mind at Harvard, he like, y'all different, y'all 454 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 2: smiling in my face. At least the racism I understood 455 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 2: when I was out in the sticks, nigga, they was 456 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 2: open about it. You niggas like y'all sly about it. 457 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: Y'all. 458 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 2: White people, y'all, y'all, y'all tell me you doing something 459 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 2: good for me.

Man, 466 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 2: Fuck all that. That's that type of like black revolutionary 467 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 2: that he kind of come from. 468 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: That's the attitude he come from. And look on me. 469 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 2: Don't let nobody tell you Abraham Lincoln or the Union 470 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,719 Speaker 2: freed the slaves, nigga, the slaves freed the slaves. We 471 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 2: did that. You ain't give us no civil rights. We 472 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 2: fought for that. Shit on me, like, I'm with that. 473 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 2: We liberated ourselves. We made y'all because you wasn't gonna 474 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 2: do it without us if we ain't make you. He 475 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 2: was like, I feel like I only got these positions 476 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 2: I got because I'm black, And that's you this and 477 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 2: all the work I put in, Like. 478 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: I'm not that smart.

You start moving in 508 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 2: these circles that you never thought you would move in. 509 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 2: You feel me, Yeah, you get on that little private yacht. 510 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 2: He was like, Nigga, I used to pick the cotton 511 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 2: with my granddaddy. Yes, I'm gonna take this ride.

I ain't got 515 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 2: nothing to do with my job now. I'm not even 516 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 2: talking about his wife, who even more weird, who's like 517 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 2: fully into the Trump world, which he should have had 518 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 2: sense enough to recuse himself of. Like, obviously, I'm flying 519 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 2: through a lot of this content because I'm assuming you 520 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 2: already know this stuff. I'm just giving you a perspective 521 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 2: on it. He like, listen again, ma, y'all business. If 522 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 2: you want to know what I'm doing, Nigga, I'm chilling. 523 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 2: I didn't know it was. Excuse me for having friends. 524 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, my friends got money, y'all don't write my checks, y'all, 525 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,880 Speaker 2: don't marinate my chicken. Nigga. I'm out with the homies. 526 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 2: I don't have a lot. It's hard having friends. You 527 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 2: a Supreme Court just you can't really have friends. So 528 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 2: if you find somebody that seemed like they don't need 529 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 2: nothing from you, it's like being a star. It's like 530 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 2: it's hard to find people that don't want nothing from you, 531 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: that actually do stuff for you that you feel like, 532 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 2: ain't got no strings attached. Now, this may sound like 533 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 2: a defense, is not a defense. It's an explanation. I'm 534 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 2: just trying to tell you this is a way that 535 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 2: black people look at the world. Sometimes it's like, hell yeah, 536 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 2: I'm a war with these white people. I'm gonna let 537 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: these white people buy me everything. They gonna buy my 538 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 2: black ass everything I want. I ain't gonna pay for shit. 539 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 2: I paid for it in slavery, Nigga. My ancestors paid 540 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 2: every bill I had. You know what I'm saying, Like, no, nigga, 541 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 2: you could pick up the check and pay it forward. 542 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 2: You this personal reparation. That's like the attitude you feel me. 543 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 2: The problem with this attitude in its practicality is it 544 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 2: plays so well with white people, because white people, as 545 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 2: in white supremacy, as in whiteness, loves to believe it's innocent, 546 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 2: and it loves to believe in the American myth of meritocracy, 547 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 2: knowing full well it's not true even in their own life. 548 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 2: Because you complaining about legacy admissions too, who really taking 549 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 2: up all the slots at your Ivy League schools? Which 550 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: is why it is so hard to hear the agent 551 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 2: population bring this to that table, because you should absolutely 552 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 2: stand up for yourself, absolutely, but to think that another 553 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 2: oppressed person is taking seats from you is missing the point. 554 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 2: It's like you're allowing yourself to be weaponized. Now listen, 555 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 2: I'm not asing. I say this very carefully. And you've 556 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 2: dealing with your own prejudice is and your own ways 557 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 2: you've moved through the world. I get it. You should 558 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 2: stand up for yourself. We just feel like, as fellow 559 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 2: oppressed people, that this is friendly fire. These people would 560 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 2: not choose to be next to you. These people do 561 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 2: not love you. You think if you change this law 562 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 2: they still gonna choose you. They not gonna choose you. 563 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 2: Because this is what I know about why affirmative action 564 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 2: was what it was. It's not so much we're choosing 565 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 2: you because we're black, you're black, we're choosing you. No, 566 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 2: we're considering your blackness as a part of the choice. 567 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you an example of this. I think 568 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 2: I may have done like a TikTok about this. Okay, 569 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 2: So if you picture those moving sidewalks at the airport, right, 570 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 2: you know what I'm talking about. Like, you know, you 571 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 2: got those long hallways, You got the moving sidewalks at 572 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 2: the airport right. The sidewalk's moving, and that was built 573 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 2: before any of us got there. It's already there, right. 574 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 2: But if you know, there's only so much space on 575 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,719 Speaker 2: that the rest of the sidewalk, the rest of that hallway, 576 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: you just gotta walk down. Now, if you're on that 577 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 2: and you walk at a regular pace, obviously, because the 578 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 2: ground is moving, you're gonna get there to the end 579 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 2: of that thing at a faster rate. Rights, that's how 580 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 2: that works. Now, if I'm on the outside of that, 581 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 2: on the regular ground, walking at the same pace you are, 582 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 2: of course you're gonna get somewhere further. 583 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: Now. 584 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 2: You got those people that are like psycho that get 585 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 2: on that thing and just stand there they not doing nothing. 586 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 2: They gonna get there anyway because the ground moving them. 587 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 2: Your legacy folks, right, you know what I'm saying. They 588 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,239 Speaker 2: just gonna get there and I'll have to try. They 589 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 2: already owned the conveyor belt. Now think about this, and 590 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 2: this is my thing for like y'all, like really hard 591 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: working people of color. Is like so now you add 592 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 2: people that come from poverty. You think about it like this. 593 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 2: What if me on the outside of that moving sidewalk 594 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 2: gets to the end of that thing at the same 595 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 2: time as somebody on it. You know what that means. 596 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 2: That means I'm working harder than you. Why am I 597 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 2: working harder than you? Because I don't have the access 598 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: to what you have access to. So if someone walks 599 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:35,719 Speaker 2: into my application process with the same GPA, with the 600 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 2: same extracurricular activities on paper are the same, but you 601 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 2: ain't have a moving sidewalk, then that teaches me something 602 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 2: about this person. And the only way for me to 603 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 2: know about that that is for me to understand the 604 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 2: fullness of their personhood. That's why I have to think 605 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 2: about they race so I can understand the fullness of them. 606 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 2: So if you tell me we got the same GPA. 607 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 2: But you this nigga had too. This nigga both his 608 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 2: parents graduated from school. This nigga came from the hood. 609 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 2: This nigga from the South to and when they from 610 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 2: the South, you have to understand how the South work. 611 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 2: Sometimes you get to a place to where these people 612 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 2: are like, I don't care how many degrees you got 613 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 2: at the end of your name. We don't hire niggas. 614 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 2: That is just three. We don't promote women. We just don't. 615 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 2: Why because nobody in my job will will listen to you. 616 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 2: We just don't hire niggas. 617 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: That's just we just don't. 618 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 2: There's that right. So if you say this, you take 619 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 2: that person that got the same GPA as you do, 620 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 2: without the access to the to the little that got 621 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: to the end of that hallway without the same access 622 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 2: you had, right, and you put that person on the walkway, 623 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 2: they finna mop everybody. If I'm walking at the pace 624 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 2: I was walking, that got me to the end of 625 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 2: that that hallway at the same time as you without 626 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 2: being on that thing, and then you put me on 627 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 2: a thing. Nigga, I'm finished spank you. Of course, they 628 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 2: don't want you competing with their children. Of course, they're 629 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 2: not gonna, like, aren't you listening. They're not gonna choose 630 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 2: you because you're gonna mop they kids. It ain't the color, cus, 631 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 2: it's so hustle. You don't. That's why I'm like, you 632 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 2: don't understand affirmative action. They're not gonna choose you. Now, 633 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 2: there's a natural part of that. That's like everybody likes 634 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 2: being with who they like being with, right, that's understandable. 635 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 2: If I'm on this, If I'm on this committee, and 636 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 2: your son, who I saw grow up, I went to 637 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 2: his little league games. You know what I'm saying, Like 638 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 2: your son and my son grew up together. It'd be 639 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 2: cool if they went to school together. You know what 640 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 2: I'm saying. Of course, I'm gonna do the homie to favor. 641 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 2: Let's make it even easier. If you were in at recess, 642 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 2: you played with who you played with personal, it's just like, yo, 643 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 2: like we're making soccer teams. I'm gonna pick the homies. Now. 644 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 2: If your teacher come out and say you gotta play 645 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 2: with them with these fools, You're like, I don't. It's 646 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 2: not personal. It's just like, yo, these are my homies. 647 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: Now. 648 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 2: If the reason you not playing with them is because 649 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 2: you think they somehow inferior to your ass that they 650 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 2: not smart enough to under staying the games that you playing. Oh, nigga, 651 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 2: that's a whole different story. You think they smell weird. 652 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 2: Oh that's different. Everyone likes being around people they comfortable with. 653 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 2: So my heartbreak about this agent, this particular situation is like, baby, 654 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,720 Speaker 2: they not gonna choose you, one because you'll outperform their kids. 655 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 2: And two they just only like themselves. And the only 656 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 2: reason any of us got in there was because of 657 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 2: these laws. 658 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: Now you're done. Take it that away now. 659 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 2: Clarence Thomas says, good, I want to get in on 660 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 2: my merit.

Apparently somebody 712 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 2: gave Justice Alita heads up that there was a pro 713 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 2: publica article that was finna come out about his situation. 714 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: And normally, like I said, most. 715 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 2: Time, judges be like, the can write your article, you 716 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 2: ain't Marri name my chicken. But he decided to get 717 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 2: out in front of it, and he gave explanations for 718 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 2: all of his stuff and the stuff and the explanations 719 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 2: is the part that's funny to be because my favorite 720 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 2: one was when they called him on or he was 721 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 2: defending himself about taking these private jets slots. If you 722 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 2: know a private jets work, you can buy a seat 723 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 2: on the plane, or somebody can donate a seat for 724 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 2: you on that flight. His argument is, well, the flight 725 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,720 Speaker 2: was taken off anyway, somebody was gonna fill that seat. 726 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I just I just took them. 727 00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: I gave me. I just took the seat. 728 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 2: And then on his like fancy little hunting trip and 729 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 2: the wine he had, he was basically like, well, the 730 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 2: wine wasn't that good and the hotel was kind of mid, 731 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 2: so I guess it kind of don't count, right, Like, 732 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 2: I don't why, It's just it really ain't that serious, 733 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 2: it's really like it wasn't even that good. That's like 734 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 2: cheating on your wife and being like it was just 735 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,320 Speaker 2: a little bit of head and it wasn't even that good, 736 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 2: so it kind of don't count. Fam and you and 737 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 2: you're telling her this on the rumor that someone's gonna 738 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 2: tell on you. You figured you get out in front 739 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 2: of it, and your defense is really wasn't that good though, 740 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 2: my lord. Now, the other one I want to cover 741 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:03,399 Speaker 2: is besides the the Navajo water situation, which needs its 742 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 2: own show, but I don't want to like do any 743 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 2: more Native eraser, so I want to cover that. I 744 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 2: want to cover the I want to touch on the 745 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 2: idea of the adopted families of Native kids getting first 746 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 2: choice for like where to place an adoptive Native child, 747 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 2: Like the people who got first DIBs if you will, 748 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:31,959 Speaker 2: are another tribe in the same way, like in family court, 749 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,360 Speaker 2: like you know usually who gets first DIBs is a 750 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:40,399 Speaker 2: related family member. You know they're doing this. I think 751 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 2: in terms of like preserving the culture, it's like at 752 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:44,399 Speaker 2: some point you got to be like, guys, we got 753 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 2: to stop kicking the natives and the balls, like we've 754 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,839 Speaker 2: never done right by them. You know what I'm saying Now, 755 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 2: that's assuming the Supreme Court is morally driven rather than 756 00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 2: just based on their worldview. The last one I want 757 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 2: to talk about right now is this website case. Now, 758 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 2: what's weird about this case is like, it's not The 759 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 2: situation was hypothetical. Yall. Remember a few years back when 760 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 2: a lady was making cakes and there was a queer 761 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 2: couple that wanted a cake, and a lady was like, 762 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 2: I don't make cakes for the gays and they were like, what, 763 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 2: Like my money, don't spend Like you're not willing. They 764 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:31,799 Speaker 2: were like, it's a conflict. I'm morally conflicted. I don't 765 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:38,480 Speaker 2: want to do this. Boos was like, uh, what do 766 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 2: we You can't just do that? And they're like, yeah, 767 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 2: I can. You know why because this would be called 768 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 2: compelled speech and the government is not allowed to compel speech. 769 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,760 Speaker 2: Why do I bring this up? Because it talks about 770 00:41:56,320 --> 00:42:02,479 Speaker 2: the strict constitutionalist worldview of how to interpret the law. 771 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 2: If you're just going to go on what's paper, what's 772 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 2: on paper, you have no roadmap as to what to 773 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 2: do in this situation. The situation was this, It was hypothetical. 774 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 2: This person wanted to make these websites for marriages right 775 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 2: or marriage website right, And they were like, well, we 776 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,360 Speaker 2: kind of don't want to do same sex marriages for 777 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 2: our website. And according to them, there was this case 778 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 2: where somebody had requested a thing and they denied them right. 779 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 2: So some journalists looked up this guy in San Francisco 780 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 2: who was on the report that said he requested a 781 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 2: website that fool was like, uh no, I'm in a 782 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 2: straight marriage. 783 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,319 Speaker 1: I don't even know what this is right about, which 784 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: might be true, might be like, I just think it's funny. Now. 785 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 2: The point was do I have to make this website? Now? 786 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 2: This is why I bring this back to Bork and 787 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 2: a constitutionalist is because I don't know what page that 788 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 2: would be on. 789 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 1: It's not on the. 790 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 2: You're you're cornered because if you're only going with the document, document, 791 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 2: don't talk about websites or capitalism. There's nothing in the 792 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:27,640 Speaker 2: law about capitalism. If you if I give you the money, 793 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:31,280 Speaker 2: you gotta you gotta give me the service. 794 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 1: And another food was like, no, it's not. It's my 795 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: private business. 796 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 2: I sell to whoever I want to sell to, I mean, 797 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 2: And then everybody else is going, yeah, that sounds like 798 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 2: Jim Crow that you're not willing to sell them is 799 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 2: nigg them is white pies. The pie like you, those 800 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,400 Speaker 2: pies are only made for white people. That's what you're saying. 801 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 2: I can't my my ten dollars ain't worth ten dollars. No, 802 00:43:56,280 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 2: we don't sell the niggers. We outlawed that, didn't We 803 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,800 Speaker 2: thought I thought that was I thought that was illegal. 804 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 2: I thought you couldn't do that where there's no roadmap 805 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 2: for this. So how you're going to be a strict 806 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 2: constitutionalist if there ain't no the constitution, don't talk about it. 807 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 2: You got to find something that you think applies to this. 808 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,879 Speaker 2: And what they landed on was compelled speech. They were saying, 809 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 2: for this person to make me make this website, is 810 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:31,400 Speaker 2: you're compelling my speech. And the person not getting the 811 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:37,720 Speaker 2: website is like, well, fuck can you? You're discriminating against 812 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 2: me based on something that is constitutionally protected. I don't 813 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:50,800 Speaker 2: understand what's going on here. And here's the thing. This 814 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,479 Speaker 2: is why you shouldn't want to be a judge, because 815 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to. 816 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:55,359 Speaker 1: Figure that shit out. His thing. 817 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,480 Speaker 2: I ain't got to answer for you, you know why, 818 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:01,879 Speaker 2: cause I don't know the constitution like that. And they 819 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 2: wrote their papers and they said, this is what we think. 820 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,280 Speaker 2: I think it's an ill world. And I don't envy 821 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,319 Speaker 2: none of these people.
