We're gonna get to know you a little 63 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our 64 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: listeners a couple of things we're talking about today. We're 65 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: gonna talk about, you know what where, what's the media 66 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: role in all this? Like, you know, we're about to 67 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: get hit with tons of fundraising texts and emails from 68 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: Democrats and a lot of people telling us to just vote, 69 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: which would work if this wasn't a failed state. But 70 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 1: the other thing that I think people are going to 71 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: gravitate towards is turning on the news and watching CNN 72 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: or you know your MSNBC. So we're we're going to 73 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: talk about like their role in that where what you 74 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: can and cannot learn in the American corporate media. We're 75 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: gonna talk about the tech nightmare looming in post row America. 76 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: We'll talk about Snowflake Mountain, a new reality show on Netflix. 77 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: Oh man, it's wild. Yeah. I got to an episode 78 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: and a half. Oh you did, oh yeah, Because the 79 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: second I saw that trailer, I'm like, what kind of 80 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: fucking wild? Like barely coated ship is this uh, and 81 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: it's fucking I'm like, we'll get we'll get to it. 82 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: I definitely have my thoughts. We also saw Elvis or 83 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: you walked out halfway through. I made it all the 84 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: way through. Um, I think you had you had something 85 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: else to do, so you knew you believe early. But 86 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: it felt like it wasn't that hard when Elvis went, 87 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: oh my god, dr king. Yeah, I'm like, I'm sorry. Oh. 88 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: They did a lot. They did a lot of a 89 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: lot of interesting stuff with that Elvis. It is a 90 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: very strange movie. Tom Hanks's uh, strangest performance by far Um. 91 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: But he did you see did you see that thing 92 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: I sent around of like what the guy actually talked like? No, 93 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: I didn't actually click the thing, but I saw everybody's 94 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: commentary that he didn't have any like real thick Dutch accent. 95 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: So Tom Hanks goes into this movie, uh Planet, playing 96 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: like Elvis's right hand man, scam lord, Colonel Tom something 97 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: or something. Yeah, and he talks like this, and he's like, 98 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: I am Elvis is man, and I discover Elvis. And 99 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: then you see a video of the guy and he's like, yeah, 100 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 1: well I discovered Elvis and that's just how how it was. 101 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: And so he was a con man who claimed he 102 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: was from West Virginia was actually from the Netherlands. But 103 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: the fact that he has such a thick accent just 104 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: makes it so confusing because like one p the FBI 105 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 1: investigates him and like shows him. They're like, we've discovered 106 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: you're not really from West Virginia. It's like, yeah, who 107 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: ship He's been like, what are you talking about this, comrade? 108 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: I love gold.

It is a fever dream. And as I 111 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: was pointing out, there also rewrite history. So Elvis is 112 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: just like I don't know they was adopted, Like it 113 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: started off like the jerk where he's like, I was 114 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:14,239 Speaker 1: raised a poor black boy.

It does seem like you 167 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: know that there were some headlines with um, the Collinses 168 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: and the Mansions being like we're disappointed, We're we're ticked 169 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: off that these guys lied to us, um but nothing 170 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: to to suggest, and therefore we're going to like pack 171 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: the court or do something to address what is obviously 172 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: a massive emergency. And they've they've pivoted to your rights 173 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: are on the ballot in November. It's like, that's true. 174 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: It is definitely not yours. None of y'all's rights are 175 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: at risk. I mean, honestly, I think the first thing 176 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,839 Speaker 1: that people have to do is obviously support a lot 177 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: of these like organizations that are going to be doing 178 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: carrying the like the load of providing people with like 179 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: self or safe abortion access. And the other part I 180 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: think too is there's I see a lot of people, 181 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: like a lot of like big D Democrat type accounts 182 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: on Twitter just like grappling, like it's like every failure, 183 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: Like wait, but they just said guns were fine. But 184 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,839 Speaker 1: the guns can't be determined by this state, but abortion 185 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 1: access can. Well, what's going on here without kind of 186 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: arriving to this point to say this whole thing has 187 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: been overrun by like moneyed interests. And that's kind of 188 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: the game we're in in this idea of like how 189 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: who do we vote for? It's like that's just spectacle. 190 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: I'm trying to trace the money here. I'm always like 191 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: a follow the money guy, and I'm just wondering. I'd 192 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: love to hear thowso on, where do you You just 193 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: said this is all rooted in money interests. Who's making 194 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: money off like who's making money off of abortion being banned? Well? 195 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: I think part of it too is like there's an 196 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: internal memo from like Amazon, for example, that says they're 197 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: running out of labor to exploit in the country. And 198 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: if we're like, so part of that is you can 199 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: buy restricting abortion access, you're creating more people to be 200 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: exploited under this system of like hey, just so you know, 201 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: if you don't have a job, like you basically don't 202 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: have a right to live. So you've now bought into 203 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: this thing of like, now come work for us. And 204 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: I think on top of that, you know, you look 205 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: at people like the Koch brothers. Their whole thing is 206 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: to create like this America where there are no regulations 207 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 1: and then they can just run the board like and 208 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: you know, put people to work in ways that there 209 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: are no protections, etcetera. So it benefits to have a 210 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: constantly growing population, Like population contraction is like one of 211 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: those things that like, you know, economic forecasters are like, well, 212 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 1: oh are we gonna exploit now? And to have a 213 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: steady pool of that is like one dimension of that. 214 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: But then you also marry that with billionaires and people 215 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: who just have a completely fucked worldview and they realize, 216 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: oh shit, if I spend a lot of money like 217 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,479 Speaker 1: I can, I can functionally write fucking laws. So yeah, 218 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: now I'm gonna get off on like my little god 219 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 1: complex by doing that as well. I mean, like some 220 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: things do have a profit uh sort of motive, and 221 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: other things are just for people to like manifest their 222 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 1: tortured worldview on onto us. And inequality is not a 223 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: byproduct of their worldview, it is their world like they 224 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: want inequality and like that that that is what the 225 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: end result of this is going to be the people 226 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 1: who suffer from this, or the people who don't have 227 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: the money or the means or the social network to 228 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: get healthcare like on their own. And yeah, desperate people 229 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: are more likely to take a terrible deal. Yeah, but 230 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: like you know, it's also the white supremacy and the 231 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: you know, the classism and all the just like darkest 232 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: ship like that is present and constant at like the 233 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: highest levels that we like don't There's a guy named 234 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: Leo Leonard who basically was the main point person on this. 235 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: You know, he put together all the different funds and 236 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: past x and dark money things to fund the confirmation 237 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: of the Supreme Court justices and um, you know like 238 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: just keep keep the thing going. But he just like 239 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: changed the name of the thing because they don't want 240 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 1: us to know that they exist from like Tradicial Crisis 241 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: Network to Concord Group or some ship like that that 242 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: is just designed to like fall directly out of your 243 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: head immediately the best color way of the Jordan Elevin sneaker, 244 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: you know, So like, let's just bring it back to 245 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: something we're gonna feel good about.

That's 249 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: the that's the long game these billionaires got going on, 250 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: is create more worker ants. Yeah. I mean, if you 251 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: just I think at the end of the day, right 252 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: the if if you are like a billionaire, the world 253 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: you want is one where nobody's telling you how to 254 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: run your business.

Like 275 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: Wired published an oh bit for Rose, Like Rose stood 276 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: for forty nine years. It revolutionized life for women, the 277 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: national right to abortion, pushed back the age of childbearing, 278 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: increased college and workforce participation, and created economically stable families.

So like, I don't know, that's 288 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: a very like dark way to view it, but that 289 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: the field you put cis head Christian like white men 290 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: at the top of the pyramid, and that's just what it, 291 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: you know, everything is about, like let's make sure we 292 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: maintain that spot there and we can now you know, 293 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: begin to exercise whatever control against other groups, marginalized groups 294 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 1: that we need to to sort of ensure that because 295 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: typically the groups that they like to go after the 296 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: ones that are pretty vocal about the you know, lopsided 297 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: nature of I guess hegemonic power in this country.

And we're back and yeah, so 327 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: we got we know the Democrat texts are coming, the fundraising, 328 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: the emails, the your rights are on the bout this November, 329 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: not all you're right yours, I'm old and I don't 330 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: have a uterus and I'm a millionaire. Were good over here, 331 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: but and I'm gonna die in like fifteen minutes. So 332 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: do you think I give a funk about a drought? 333 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: Come on now anyway. But yeah, that's that's sort of 334 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 1: that we are like clockwork, it's already happening, and you know, 335 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: all of these things insisting that voting them out is 336 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: the key. We must vote them out. And like you're saying, 337 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: if this were a functioning democracy, then yeah, that might work. 338 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: But like you know, at this point, I feel like 339 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: the more you look at it and how empty the 340 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: gestures are from politicians, despite just the rolling back of 341 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: rights that we're saying, like just you know, more rights 342 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: for guns this last week than for human beings. It's like, 343 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,919 Speaker 1: you know, electoralism, DC politics. It's just this spectacle to 344 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 1: distract us from the fact that, like the real decisions 345 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: are dictated by capital essentially, you know, not the needs 346 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 1: of people. If that were the case, we would have 347 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: had functioning healthcare in this country for for people. We 348 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't just be like, yeah, man, if you can't, if 349 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: you're too poor to work, don't worry about it. We're 350 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: not going to just force you to live on the 351 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: street and then fend for yourself. But you know, as expected, 352 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court overturned Row and Clarence Thomas made it 353 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: clear also that this is also opening the door for 354 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 1: overturning gay marriage and like contraception and like, so people 355 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: are going to wonder, you know, how did this happen? 356 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: What can be done? And most people like my like 357 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,679 Speaker 1: my parents, most people just in general, turn on the 358 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: TV and most likely land on a news network that 359 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: actually has no interest in informing people like what's actually happening, 360 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: because is that's not how the news functions anymore. And 361 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: I think that's a big thing that like a lot 362 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: of Americans need to grapple with. This is in the 363 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: case for a while that these are like I feel 364 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: like we've we've had plenty of evidence for it for 365 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: a long time, and we've like I've just even like 366 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: even though I've been saying it, like just more and more, 367 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, oh wow, Like they don't give a 368 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: funk at all. It was, you know, just a delusion 369 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: news every day and just watching it and trying to 370 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: see where the objective. There's zero objectivity in any of it, 371 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: or zero interest in trying to inform people. It's always 372 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 1: like everything's breaking news, everything is fearmongering, everything's like pay 373 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: attention also by Colgate. You know, that's all right, And 374 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: you know, I think the thing that we have, I 375 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: think the way to look at it is that these 376 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: are for profit companies chasing ad dollars. That means these 377 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: aren't news organizations. Like that's that was a long time 378 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: ago when we had news organizations. What we see on 379 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 1: television are profit minded companies doing business with other profit 380 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 1: minded companies. That's the main business. It's not the news 381 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: is like an afterthought. It's not about telling the truth. 382 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 1: And the truth is we're in total free fall as 383 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: a country, and we're willing to side with arms manufacturers 384 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: at the expense of, you know, the lives of children. 385 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 1: We treat life as disposable, and we are now at 386 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: the will of concepts like shareholder value. Uh, and like 387 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: that's what's moving policy. That's kind of where you'd hope 388 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: that news would tell people, is what's going on at 389 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: the moment. It's so bizarre to be a part of 390 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: like a real podcast and have its sound like a 391 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: conspiracy thirty podcast right right right that the news is 392 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: exactly and you know, and to their credit, media has 393 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: done a good job to make conversations like this sounds 394 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: so fringe and out of touch with reality that most 395 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: people's reaction is like yeah, right, it's like all these 396 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: like spooky billionaires, right well, yeah kind of is for 397 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: a lot of like a lot of these issues that 398 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: we're experiencing. And you know, I think like we're saying, 399 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: like we're saying, it's the things that are discussed on television, 400 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: Like it's not to inform again, it's it's it's it's 401 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: just to kind of perpetuate this sort of like mirage 402 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 1: of like just focus on these smaller things without kind 403 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: of looking up towards the upper echelons of society where 404 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: like the money's moving and the people who make the 405 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: decisions on what's on TV, who they speak to, who 406 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: they are influenced by. And I just want to point 407 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,159 Speaker 1: at like CNN and the American Prospect also was you know, 408 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: did a great job of like sort of bringing attention 409 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: to this. Like CNN has made a lot of noise 410 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: recently because they're like, you know, Zuckers out. They've brought 411 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 1: in this guy Chris Licked or liked, I don't know 412 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: how to pronounce the last name. He's like a he's 413 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: a talk show producer, that's his background, a talk show producer. 414 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: Is now run CNN, is their new head, and he's 415 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: been letting advertisers know, like an upfronts and things like that, 416 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,880 Speaker 1: like using the word extreme, like we're trying to get 417 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: away from like extreme views and things like that. And 418 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: CNN's main investor is a man named John Malone. He 419 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: is America's largest landowner. He's a fucking Republican. He's a 420 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: Trump humper. And you think this man who is at 421 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: the who has the like huge steak in the company 422 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: that's running CNN, you think he is interested in telling 423 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: American people that like his cohort is the reason there's 424 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: no affordable housing or any other thing. Fuck no, So 425 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 1: we're not going to get that ship from anything like that. 426 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: But this whole new CNN rebrand push is really easy 427 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 1: to wrap your head around it when again, you just 428 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: look at the fucking money. The parent company of CNN, 429 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: Warner Brothers, Discovery is in about fifty nine billion dollars 430 00:24:56,040 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: worth the debt. Okay, Fox News made over twelve billion 431 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 1: dollars in revenue last year, CNN less than two billions. 432 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: So these motherfucker's are looking over there being like, damn, 433 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: we've leaven a lot of racist money on the table 434 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: a lot, and I feel like we should be in 435 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: that scrap for that big How the funk they get 436 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 1: in twelve billion and we're getting too because we have 437 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: people on who are saying stuff like white supremacy out 438 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 1: loud on television, and that's off putting two people. Maybe 439 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 1: it's we gotta us liberals gotta spend more money on 440 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: and watch the CNN ship and hopefully maybe they'll pull 441 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: buy keys or whatever. Fucking Is that the opposite of 442 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: whatever they're selling on Fox News? Yeah, I mean that's 443 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: what they'd love if they'd love for people to come 444 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 1: to that conclusions like well, gosh, maybe we bought some 445 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: more ship, we'd have access to healthcare. But I mean 446 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:49,919 Speaker 1: it's kind of crazy, like when you look at who 447 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 1: advertised on CNN versus who advertise on Fox News, the 448 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: fact that Fox made that much more money, like just 449 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: really emphasizes how much better of a job they're doing 450 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: drawing an audience because like Fox News is like advertisements 451 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: for like gold and catheters, and CNN like has actual brands. 452 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 1: It's like the right wing media tells the truth that 453 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: like racist people believe in and want to believe in. 454 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: The corporate media tells the truth that like billionaires and 455 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: corporations want to believe them, but like no real actual 456 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 1: people believe in. But it's still like corporate friendly and 457 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: brand friendly, like to to a degree that like they 458 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: get much better sponsorship, but like that's there. There's only 459 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: a few, like to your point, like you you sound 460 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: crazy in America by saying the actual truth like that 461 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: that makes you sound a fringe at this point absolutely 462 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: to be like, well there are parent companies in bion 463 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 1: dollars worth of death. They're like, so what I'm like, 464 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: do you know how these people talk? Like I'll play 465 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,439 Speaker 1: you a clip of this guy John Malone, who is 466 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: again America's largest fucking private land on top of all 467 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: this ship, um, just to hear him talk about how 468 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: he looks at you know, this is him talking about 469 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: the potential of like being able to basically call the 470 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: shots at CNN and just listen to how this man 471 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 1: even views what news is, because I think it's very 472 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: fucking instructive. Well, you know, I was. I guess I 473 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: could be partially blamed for the creation of a lot 474 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 1: of news networks, including yours, but I know, certainly Fox News. 475 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 1: Fox News I think, in my opinion, UH has followed 476 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: a a an interesting trajectory of trying to have news news, 477 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: I mean, some actual journalism embedded in in a program 478 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: schedule of all opinions. Uh. And I think they've been 479 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:53,719 Speaker 1: relatively successful with that with a service like like Brett 480 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: Bear and Brett Hume before him, that tried to distinguish 481 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: news from a And I would like to say CNN 482 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 1: evolve back to the kind of journalism that have started 483 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: with and uh, you know, I actually have journalists. Okay, 484 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: So it sounds like he's saying, like, man, they could 485 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: use some real Fox News ing over there at CNN. 486 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: This was like before all this actually became official. Since 487 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,120 Speaker 1: it all happened, there's a lot of talk about how 488 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: quote unquote extreme views are going to try and be 489 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 1: like purged from the network. But they're like, what the 490 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: funk does that even mean? And this guy Chris Licked, 491 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: who's like the talk show producers now running CNN, says, quote, 492 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: we are truth tellers focused on informing, not alarming our viewers. 493 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,479 Speaker 1: So i'd imagine anyone who says anything alarming will be 494 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: considered someone who might not be so friendly to the brand. 495 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: But we're living in terribly fucked up times. But isn't 496 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: that what Fox News says? Though? Aren't they pro extreme 497 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: ship and that's what's made them so successful? But I 498 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: think the language he's using is trying to almost say, 499 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: like objectively, what they're doing is like just this, like 500 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: they've got their opinion and then they have news news 501 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: and that's why they're doing so well. And it's like 502 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: some glossed over the entire part you're talking about in 503 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: the manage, which is like no, they're they're like they're 504 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: pumping out this wild, like dramatic ship for people to 505 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: just like get incensed by by watching. Yeah, it sounds 506 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: like they're trying to position themselves as like, well, there's 507 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 1: gotta be like right wing people who don't respond to 508 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: like the Fox News craziness, so we'll like just move 509 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: more towards them. Like they're trying it sounds like they're 510 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: like trying to be you know, still hold down the center, 511 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: uh like viewpoint, even though Fox is moving more and 512 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: more to the right, and so like anybody who is 513 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: telling the truth becomes an extremist and in that environment, 514 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 1: because Fox, which is completely outside of the realms of reality, 515 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: is like one of the things that you're using to 516 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: determine where the middle right. Yeah, understand that, And I think, like, 517 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: you know, it's really important to note that by having 518 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: their hands all over media, by Bezos owning like the 519 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 1: Washington Post, having John Malone at CNN, just like the 520 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: numerous people who have their hands on different media outlets. 521 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: The biggest thing, the biggest fear that this like billionaire 522 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: class of people has is aside from the Bezos types, 523 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: but like the John Malone types and things like that, 524 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: is that people will begin to connect the dots that 525 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: their money is actually somehow influencing things. They pay a 526 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: lot of money to keep themselves out of the conversation, 527 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: and the biggest fear is that the conversation is going 528 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: to shift to, well, who's moving all these piles of 529 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: cash around that end up putting people in office that 530 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: change laws and things like that. And because of that, 531 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: I think, you know that that's that's one of the 532 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: best functions so far that that media has provided in 533 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: service of this class of people, which is to completely 534 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: make us confused as to who's running the show, because 535 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: right now people are experienced a thing of like, but 536 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: I voted for these people and they said they do it, 537 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: and they didn't. Who is in power? Aren't they empower? 538 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: And the next thing is, well, you know, who are 539 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: the lobbyists that package their donations so they can stay 540 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: in office? And then who's putting that money in the 541 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: lobbyist pockets and so on and so forth. And I 542 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: think the biggest issue a lot of Americans have is 543 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: people right now in the confusion, in the fog of war, 544 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: they're fighting an invisible enemy and they don't know what 545 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: to do. They're just feeling punches and kicks and ship 546 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: like that. And I think there's something, uh that is 547 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: a lot more heartening to somebody at the very least 548 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: if you can begin to outline what exactly is the 549 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: forces that are pressing back because we have a lot 550 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: of disconnected ideas and presentations of what's happening. That again 551 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: just furtherest I think a lot of like the confusion 552 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,719 Speaker 1: that people experience. I think you give a lot of 553 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: credit to the American media consumer and thinking that I 554 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: think they're just late. I think it's just, uh, no 555 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: one's inquisitive enough to understand what's going on. No one 556 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: really gives a ship. And I was like, well, I'm 557 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: speaking from my phone ship, like, sure I know how 558 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 1: the lobbyists are connected to the senator and or the 559 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: congress person. En sure I know where the which billionaires 560 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 1: given money to which calls, Like I can tell you 561 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: the Cooche brothers are definitely involved in uh spreading whatever 562 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: it's fake news about what's going on in agriculture. But 563 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: it's like, what am I actually gonna do? And then 564 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: and then it becomes that that fatigue is all kind 565 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: of just like all right, well, yeah, the old people 566 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: gonna hold for a while. They're gonna keep sucking it up. 567 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: It's like it's either apply from Australian visa or just 568 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 1: you know, see where this goes, and hopefully I get 569 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: rich enough that this doesn't matter to me. I think 570 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: that's the thing that is holding people back, is not 571 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: the is not stupidity or willful laziness. It's the what 572 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 1: am I gonna do? And the fact that this version 573 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: of reality that is like everything is actually run by 574 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: all these complex like movements of money that just immediately 575 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: put my brain to sleep and like make me want 576 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: to jump out a window, like rather than like read 577 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 1: more information about that ship like that that is all 578 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: there to make it so that like we we don't 579 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: give a ship and there's no alternative to this, like 580 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: we we talked about it a lot as like the 581 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: reason that people can't get behind a revolutionary ideology or 582 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 1: like can't picture anything other than like a post apocalyptic movie. 583 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: It seems like because like it's like, well it's either 584 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: like what what we have right now or it's fucking 585 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: mad Max, Like that's that's all we can do. That's 586 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: what it feels like. It's I Yah weird. It feels 587 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: like a steady decline towards that apocalyptic world and us 588 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: on the upwardly mobile side or just trying to claw 589 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: out of the black hole second is in before it's 590 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean Like that I can see 591 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 1: that that's where we're going. I don't know if it's 592 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: could be my generation or our generational like the next 593 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: one or two of them down the line. But at 594 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 1: some point it's gonna be us versus them. It's gonna 595 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: goals to join us before becomes them, you know what 596 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 1: I mean? Like I don't have that track, but that's 597 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: where it feels like we're going. I'm sorry it seems 598 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,399 Speaker 1: so bleak on this Monday uh podcast for the week, 599 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 1: But the What Am I Gonna Do? I think you 600 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: really summed up how a lot of people feel right now. 601 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: And again that's why most people say what I like 602 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: to your point about what the media does, you say, 603 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,439 Speaker 1: what am I gonna do? The TV is not gonna 604 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 1: tell you to get in the streets or that revolutionary 605 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: action is needed. They're gonna say, and we've gotta get 606 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: these Republicans out. Huh yeah. And that serves its purpose 607 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 1: to just sort of keep the status quo going and 608 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: not to begin to like give people the idea that 609 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: there that there there could possibly be other options, that 610 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 1: there could there there maybe need to be other ways 611 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 1: to collectively work towards a goal, whether that's like maybe 612 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: just by focusing on your immediate community or like peer 613 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: to peer support. But in that sense, there isn't much 614 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,879 Speaker 1: when you're up against like billions of dollars. That's true. 615 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: There isn't really much you can do because of all 616 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: of the levers that, like, you know, these people are 617 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,800 Speaker 1: in control of. And I think that's an interesting I 618 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:29,399 Speaker 1: don't know. I think that's a that's a hard pill 619 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: to swallow. I think these capital stormers had it right. 620 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: I just went for the wrong reasons. Yeah. No, And 621 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: I think that's why a lot of people said, could 622 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 1: you imagine people doing that for healthcare? It would have 623 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: been a blood bath. Yeah, they would. And I think 624 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: that's what's that's that's also another thing that's revealed. And 625 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 1: like watching all this ship play out over and over, 626 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: you're like, Okay, we live in a white supremacist, capitalist 627 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: patriarchy that is violently homophobic and wanting to be like 628 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: a Christian theocracy. And as a as an opening to 629 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: the New Matrix movie, it feels like that was actually 630 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 1: one of the first things, like a philosophy teacher said 631 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: to me, like in college, wrote that on the blackboard, 632 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: Like if you look at another way that like you 633 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: can just track like what the media and like the 634 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 1: people who pay for the media are actually worried about. 635 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: Like look first of all, their headlines that are like 636 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: US races for violence against conservatives, pro life groups with 637 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 1: Supreme Courts abortion ruling. Uh. Meanwhile, like the last two 638 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 1: years have seen a rise in violence against abortion providers 639 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: and people seeking abortions. Like that's actually how things work, 640 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: but like you don't hear about that side of it. 641 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 1: You just here it's like all it's the same with 642 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: like amidst like these horrifying mass shootings of people of 643 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 1: color around America, Like that got attention, But like I 644 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 1: feel like the person who had thoughts of harming brit 645 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh like got all so a ton of attention to 646 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 1: like prepare us for this moment. So we had in 647 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 1: our mind like well, guys, it's just like balls and 648 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 1: strikes and like we you know, we shouldn't be protesting 649 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 1: in the streets because that's not fair. And look what 650 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: almost happened to Brett having off and like that's because 651 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,319 Speaker 1: that's who they're protecting, Like that that's who they want 652 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 1: to ultimately protect. I feel like, yeah, I just think, 653 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: you know, I think the biggest thing immediately is I 654 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: mean it seems like Democrats they're really easy to shame 655 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: sometimes because like all they do is operate from this 656 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,439 Speaker 1: fear of like wanting to be liked by the right 657 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 1: because I feel like there's so much capitulation to it, 658 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 1: being like, well, I don't want to get them all 659 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 1: riled up. I don't know how they're going to now. 660 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,439 Speaker 1: I mean, they're gonna probably get through this mid terms 661 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 1: again on being like, hey, we're holding all these existential 662 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 1: threats above your head to get your vote, but at 663 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 1: a certain point, you know, and I think the biggest 664 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: conversation that needs to occur is how people in general 665 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 1: like choose for like a person to support, if even 666 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: if you're even looking to electoral politics to like be 667 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 1: some kind of solution to this, because most people are 668 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,359 Speaker 1: blindly just like I don't know what team are they 669 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: on and without sort of zooming out a little bit 670 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: to say, like, both are not offering like the real 671 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: kinds of tangible results that people are needing to you know, 672 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: live a safe and productive life. Well that's how I 673 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,879 Speaker 1: about I see which team people on, do a little 674 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: cursory research, and then uh, the team that I'm on, 675 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:32,879 Speaker 1: because I mean, for all the faults that the Democrats have, 676 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 1: they're not the yeah, and they're campaigning on that. That's 677 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: been good enough for I think a long time. That 678 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: was good enough for me for a long time. You know, 679 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: it's a hard pill to swallow, be like, and I 680 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: know this is American politics, and it has been said 681 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: a billion times. It's just choosing the lesser of the 682 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,919 Speaker 1: two evils, because I mean it's none of No one 683 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: presented in the last twenty years has been I mean, 684 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 1: Linus AOC was like a beacon of hope to me, 685 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: and I'm sure she has their applause, but no one 686 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: presented has ever struck me as anyone worth voting for 687 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 1: on either side. But the Democrats like our pro women 688 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: and like uh pro minority, so I'll go with them. 689 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 1: I mean even then, right, I could say, well, then 690 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 1: where they at? You know, because and I think that's 691 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 1: the that's the issue that we run up against, is 692 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: like we feel that the choices are you know, ship 693 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: sandwich or ship sandwich with like a rainbow flag, and 694 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 1: then thinking that that's the best we can do, and 695 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:42,799 Speaker 1: we allow for this like incrementalism to continue to put 696 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: more people at risk because as we say this, right, 697 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: police are killing just as many people in the streets 698 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 1: despite what the Democrats did and need taking a knee 699 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 1: and having a kente cloth on and doing ship like that. 700 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 1: They didn't actually go to bat to do anything that 701 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 1: would actually keep people of color safe. Or you look 702 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,240 Speaker 1: at what you know, only recent lee has the Department 703 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 1: of Education began to say something about protecting LGBTQ students 704 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 1: and things like that. There's so much that when push 705 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: comes to shove, they'll only do it if they absolutely 706 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 1: have to or if it's beneficial. And I think that's 707 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: the thing that we have to realize is like the opportunity, 708 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: the opportunism of like a lot of the politicians. And yeah, 709 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 1: and I think it's a hard thing to say, well, 710 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: what can we just vote in more people who don't 711 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: take corporate money. But then again they're fighting in a 712 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: system where being on TV and market saturation can really 713 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 1: help push an election. And you know our reference, Rick 714 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: Caruso in l A who's a Republican, spent fourt million 715 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: and is within spitting distance of like becoming mayor. At 716 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 1: the end of the day, you can be such a 717 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 1: backwards candidate, but if you have enough money you can. Again, 718 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,359 Speaker 1: like you're saying, it's it's hard for people to sort 719 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,319 Speaker 1: of be loud or amazed by what's coming on TV 720 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 1: and take that as like being like, oh, well, I 721 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 1: see this personal lot. That's enough to inform me this 722 00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 1: is a direction to move. And I think that's a 723 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 1: really underrated part, Like how even people that might ignore 724 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: TV just from the saturation begin to be like, oh, 725 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 1: I'm familiar. Now, I'm familiar with that and that sounds 726 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: fine enough. And Snoop Dogg backed them, so yeah, well 727 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,759 Speaker 1: Snoop Doggs also back in like n F T S 728 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,399 Speaker 1: and ship. I do just want to say, like back 729 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 1: to the point about like sounding like a conspiracy theorist. 730 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: The day after the election, The New York Times wrote 731 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,360 Speaker 1: a piece about how Crusoe had basically like won the 732 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 1: election and you know, had delivered a sharp rebuke to 733 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: anybody who was like pushing towards police reform. And Karen 734 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 1: Bass beat him in the primary. That's not like the 735 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: actual election, but she did beat him, which is like 736 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 1: the direct opposite. And also like a bunch of pro 737 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: reform candidates won the New York Times. So I'm gonna 738 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,360 Speaker 1: keep bringing this up until the New York Times like 739 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 1: issues a fucking correction and like says how they got 740 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 1: to the point where they had the voting results exactly wrong. 741 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 1: But the only place that people have actually been like, wait, 742 00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 1: Progressive is did incredibly well in Los Angeles. Crusoe didn't 743 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: do that well considering how much money spent was a 744 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 1: column in the l A Times. Other than that, it's 745 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: just like again, things that you would think are fringe, 746 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:14,320 Speaker 1: but like it's down to reporting the actual results of votes. 747 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 1: Like they don't even acknowledge when the thing that they 748 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:21,840 Speaker 1: want to happen doesn't happen. They just tell the story. 749 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 1: And that's the fucking New York Times. Myself a year 750 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: ago would look at myself now and be like that 751 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 1: person is crazy. But that is built on just paying 752 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: attention to what is actually happening right now, and it's 753 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: just completely it's completely falling apart. All right, let's take 754 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,360 Speaker 1: a quick break. It's a big news day, so we 755 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 1: do have to talk about Snowflake Mountain. Um, so let's 756 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:57,400 Speaker 1: take a quick break and we'll be right back. And 757 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:02,240 Speaker 1: we're back. And there is a new Netflix reality show 758 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: called Snowflake Mountain. It's I haven't watched it. It seems 759 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,959 Speaker 1: like it's pretty like the title and the premise all 760 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: kind of are aligned and Miles, you watched an episode 761 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: and a half, do you think it's propaganda based off 762 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: that title based It feels like it might be. So 763 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 1: basically the premise Snowflake Mountain, you get people who are 764 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 1: raised in cities, put them in a survivalist situation and 765 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: have them like bossed around by like some army rangers. 766 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,320 Speaker 1: Is that essentially the conceit and like make them look 767 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:39,840 Speaker 1: like idiots while the army people are the are correct. Yeah, 768 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 1: it's wild because for the snowflakes, it's mostly people of 769 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: color and women. It's wild. How like they're trying to 770 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,359 Speaker 1: be like, so this is what a snowflake is. It's 771 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 1: a dude with long hair, like the one white guy 772 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,960 Speaker 1: like dresses like an n F T.
