I don't believe in 48 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: tigers or kings. Okay, fair? What is something from your 49 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: search history, sir? They're just revealing about who you are. 50 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: Can you give horses? COVID nineteen And I wasn't looking 51 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: for a medical guide. I was looking for more of 52 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: a practical guide on like how how to give you're 53 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:35,119 Speaker 1: very anti horse, I am. And while we're like this 54 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: is the time to strike, like I feel like if 55 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: we're going to win what I call the long war, uh, 56 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: then now is the moment. Now is the time to 57 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: to to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat and 58 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: finally overwhelmed the horses when they think they've won. Yeah, 59 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: just rest ourselves free from the under the mighty hoof 60 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: of our equine oppressors. Yeah. Do not spread the COVID 61 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: nineteen unless it is to a horse. Is the long war? Uh? 62 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: A comment on face length? Is that like a backhand insult? Uh? No, 63 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: But it should have been, because that's that's good. That's 64 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: some real good horse shade. Jack. Yeah, horse shade is 65 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: kind of my specialty. Yes, I would think that this 66 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: would actually be a time when the horses might get 67 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: the upper hand, because we're not. That's why we have 68 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: to be taking back the power that wild horses galloping 69 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: down my street on a regular basis. Listen to the 70 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: documentary album Heavy Horses. It will, It will let you 71 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: know the danger we face. I was listening to I 72 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: was listening to a podcast recently that had to do 73 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: it like horse crimes. I don't know, and it gave 74 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: me empathy for horses that I wasn't expecting to have, 75 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: and I regret it. See, I would argue that the 76 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: life of any horses a crime, but I guess that's 77 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: open to interpretation. Robert's the only person who's at the 78 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: Triple Crown cheering when he hears a gunshot ring out 79 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: after own horse falls down. Yeah. I actually I bring 80 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: my own bullets, just as like an offering, you know. Yeah, yeah, um, Jamie. 81 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: It was a podcast about crimes against horses. Crimes against horses, 82 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: not crimes that horses have committed. I believe that's different podcast. Yeah, 83 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: that is. That is the show that I could be 84 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: trying to launches. None of it, crimes against horsemanity. This 85 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: was an episode of has anyone ever listened to Swindle? 86 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: It was an episode of that. I don't listen to 87 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 1: other podcasts. I think, what a podcasts? You're right, you're right, 88 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: you know what, You're right? I mean, yet again, twice 89 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,679 Speaker 1: in one morning, I've been fucking canceled again. The only 90 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 1: podcast I need is the Daily Zeitgeist and re listening 91 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: to Bob Dylan's seventeen minutes about the j FKA assassination. 92 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: That's that's it. The comedian John Daily was like, the 93 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: new Bob Dylan song? Is a podcast? Really, Robert? What 94 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: is something you think is underrated? You know? And and 95 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: you know I'm gonna I'm gonna throw some shade on 96 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 1: myself for this one. I have realized throughout this quarantine 97 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: how underrated movie theaters are. And I am not normally 98 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: a movie theater guy. I go maybe once a year. 99 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: I went more when I lived with our friend David Bell, 100 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: because he's super fun to go to the movies with. 101 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: But um, I just don't. I just I don't care normally, 102 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: Like I've gotten a year or more at a time 103 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 1: without going into a movie theater, and now all I 104 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: can think about is going to a movie theater and 105 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 1: how nice it would be. Um, So I have accepted 106 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: that I have been unfairly maligning theaters for years now 107 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: as a result of this quarantine. I miss my stubs. Yeah, 108 00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: oh my gosh. Yeah they were it about it. Usually 109 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: they're assholes, but they just froze everybody's membership. And now 110 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: I have like regrets of I wonder if anyone else 111 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: has been feeling like this, of like things that I 112 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: could have done, and then I'm like I don't know 113 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: if I should do it, and then I didn't, and 114 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: then everything closed, and like funk I should have just 115 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: gone and seen Emma when I had a chance, Like, yeah, 116 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: is there anything else? Like I'm severely missing hoops right now, 117 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: just it being the time that we would normally be 118 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: having March Madness and the NBA playoffs for the NBA season, Like, 119 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: I am in a severe basketball withdraw. Is there anything 120 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: else you guys are find yourself missing something you more 121 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: than you expected. I live near a bus stop and 122 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: the buses are still going, but they're empty, and I'm 123 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: missing busses having people in them. As weird as that sounds, 124 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: because there's just something so unwholesome about empty busses passing 125 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: each other at like three in the afternoon. It's just 126 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: like that's not a great sign. That's so funny because 127 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: there was a profile or like a journalist who lived 128 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: in China and was like living in this place that 129 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: had been fully quarantined, was writing about how like they 130 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: lived overlooking the subway and it was empty. And I 131 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: was like, man, that's so dystopian, Like two weeks ago 132 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: and now it's like that's our reality. Yeah, it is dystopian. Yeah, 133 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: what is something you think is overrated? Man? You know 134 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to say fucking oh yes, sorry, juice bars. 135 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: Now that we don't have the opportunity to go out 136 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: and get nice, fresh, fancy eleven dollar squeeze juice. I've 137 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: just been smashing oranges with the butt of a rifle, 138 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: and it turns out that's as good a way to 139 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 1: get your your your vitamin C fix, your adaptogen's. All 140 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: of the things you can get from a Moon Juice 141 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: or another high end fruit juice you can just get 142 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 1: by smashing fruit with the butt of a rifle on 143 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: your catching table. So try it out at home, folks. 144 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: It really works. Yeah, I'm glad you've actually found a 145 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: way to adapt because we all know you loved your 146 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: overpriced juices. I'm a big juice guy. Pre war you 147 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: were like, oh, here comes, here comes Robert Juice Evans. 148 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: It was annoying. Yeah, Robert had me picking up Moon 149 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,319 Speaker 1: Juice orders and like I had to mail them to him. 150 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: It was like, yeah, they're like, you know, they're gonna 151 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: spill in the box. He's like, mail them it really 152 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: And then and then he would have me communicate messages 153 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 1: to his favorite employees at Moon Juice too and be like, Hi, 154 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: I'm here to pick up an order for Robert Evans. 155 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: He wants to say hi to Luna. It's horrible. Well, 156 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: the thing is, I never wanted any of them to 157 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: meet me in person, because I felt like that might 158 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: spoil the purity of the juice slash juice buyer transaction. Right, 159 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: But there's no greater purity than just hitting an orange 160 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: with the butt of a rifle. And I found that 161 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: thanks to the quarantine. And where does the juice go 162 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: when you just put a piece of check It goes 163 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: all over the place at every where. You just lick 164 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: it off the table or yeah, yeah, yeah, keeps your 165 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: table clean, keeps your tongue clean, You get a lot 166 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: of items. That's how you normally drink juice. You just 167 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: pour it on your table and lap it up. Well, 168 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 1: normally I just pour it out of the sodden envelopes 169 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: that Jamie sends me. Uh so this is not as 170 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: as big a change as it might seem. Just bringing 171 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: cardboard over his own mouth God, which I understand is 172 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 1: not safe anymore. Now we're in quarantine, you should not. Yeah. Um. 173 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: And finally, Robert, what is a mess going to take 174 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: from us? I know, what is a myth? Let something 175 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: people think it's true, you know, to be false. That 176 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: the solution to to all of the horrible problems we're 177 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: having as a result of this virus is something that 178 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: will be uh settled in the halls of Congress. Like 179 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, if we're going to 180 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: get anything that like resembles justice, uh, it's it's going 181 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: to be as something that starts from the bottom up, 182 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: like this rent strike stuff that's going on right now. UM, 183 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: I think there's more of an opportunity in that to 184 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: secure some sort of long term, like lasting remedy to 185 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: the ship that's got millions of people wondering if they're 186 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 1: going to be out on the street in two or 187 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: three weeks. There anything that like a Republican or a 188 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: Democratic Congress is actually going to vote on. Um. And yeah, 189 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: I guess that's just like I just launched a podcast 190 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: this week, The Windows for that's about Yes, yes, this 191 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: this is my very subtle podcast. It's a hit this. Yeah, 192 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: we kicked, We're gonna We're gonna fucking We're gonna kick 193 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: the ship at a I don't know who's a person 194 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: swindle this one. Yeah, fuck up Lou Dubbs. We're gonna 195 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: fuck Lou Dabbs right up. Who are you threatening online? 196 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: Robert Christa Tippitt, Yeah, I I threatened Christa Tippitt online 197 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 1: every day of my life. Yeah, i'd like to I'd 198 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: like to send that threat to Dolly Parton's America. Yeah, 199 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: absolutely all of them, but we're taking them all. I 200 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: just want to talk about some vulnerable groups who, like, 201 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: with this outbreak, I need to be sort of discussed 202 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: a little bit more. UM. The first group are prisoners, 203 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: because you know, a lot of people have talked about, 204 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: screamed from the rooftops that you know, our prisons are overcrowded. 205 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: We know that because it's a for profit business and 206 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: it's like a hotel. You book more guests, you make 207 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: more money, or you make more rests, you get more money. 208 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: A lot of people been going on saying a COVID 209 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: nineteen outbreak in a prison would be absolutely awful. Of 210 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: the people are in such confined spaces there's it would 211 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: just be the worst thing to have. Um, and we've 212 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: already seen cases pop up in certain prisons. William Barr 213 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: at the Department of Justice said that he is having 214 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, federal prisons like giving the order to release sick, 215 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: elderly or other at risk inmates into home confinement based 216 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: on an algorithm that guessed it racist and the way 217 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: it determines who's you know, a less of a risk 218 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: to be released. Basically, it's a computerized system never been 219 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: used before, but basically says white collar offenders who are 220 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: most disproportionately white, are safe. But if you are have 221 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: any drug related charges, a history of prior arrests, typically 222 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: who are tend to be African American because of biased 223 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: police practices, the war on drugs, everything, what have you. Uh, 224 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 1: those you know, they'll be they'll be disproportionately affected. So 225 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: that means thirty percent of white inmates would probably get 226 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 1: this low risk rating, while only seven percent of black 227 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: inmates will get this similar designation. And this policy also 228 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: excludes non citizens convicted of immigration related crimes. So looking 229 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: at just being like, hi, let's do what we can 230 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: to ease the prisons, but using a terribly fucked up algorithm, 231 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: and then even black and brown people. Yeah right, it's 232 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: really they just opened a door that says computer room, 233 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: and it's a guy named Algorithm, and he's just the 234 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: racist uncle who was just like, let the whites the 235 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: watch will be fun. Uh, and let's just keep all 236 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: the blacks into Yeah, and if you if you're an 237 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: a legal immigrant, that's also bad. I mean, it's true. 238 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 1: It's almost like using it, like it's only reinforcing a 239 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: thing that they probably would have done out loud. So 240 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: it's easier to claim algorithm like no, we're using this 241 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: computer system. It's computers. Computers are infallible. It's uh yeah, 242 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: and it's and we also know that like they're still 243 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: doing like ice raids throughout this time. There's like not 244 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: been a moratorium on that at all, and so it's yeah, yeah, yeah, 245 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: So this is just one of those things where because 246 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: of the overcrowding and the you know, absolute lack of 247 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: compassion shown to the incarcerated population, this is something that 248 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: could take your check fraud sentence and turn it into 249 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: a death sentence. Yeah. Meanwhile, you know, you're you're looking 250 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: at how other countries are responding, like like America sworn 251 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: enemy ran and they are releasing prisoners and they've been 252 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: releasing prisoners for weeks now, and uh and it's like 253 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: you always look at that and you just go like, yeah, 254 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: this is uh there. It's like every every other month, 255 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: the i atole Is will say something that I'll be like, 256 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: you know, I can't lie, Like I'm I'm kind of 257 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: more on board with that than I am with anything 258 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: that the American government currently says, Like I it's when 259 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: it comes to showing a modicum of humanity or of 260 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: anything acknowledging people's humanity or like that's so weird that, like, 261 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: you know, how many people have gotten an email from 262 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: an insurance company recently that's like, hey, you should do this, 263 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: or hey, we're worried about your Hey we're gonna do 264 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: this to make it easier for you. No, no, nowhere. 265 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: So like I think it helps I get more emails 266 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: from like l A fitness telling me like, hey, you 267 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: want two free months of workout once this is all done, 268 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: then I do from like Blue Cross or No, Who're 269 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: just like no, they don't they don't care. This is 270 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: there's going to be a cash cow for them. There's 271 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: also another group UM just with people with like you know, disabilities, 272 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: any kind of neurally atypical people UM are also there's 273 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: some kind of troubling plans that are being like articulated 274 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: from states UM like in Alabama and Washington about how 275 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: they will prioritize people who are going to get ventilators 276 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: from COVID nineteen related complications. And this pro publica articles 277 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: showing how a lot of advocacy groups are start sounding 278 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: an alarm to health and Human services, saying like the 279 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: wording in this is deeply, deeply fucking problematic and troubling. Um. 280 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: In Alabama, one of their state plans say that quote 281 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: persons with severe mental retardation, advanced dementia, or severe traumatic 282 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: brain injury maybe poor candidates for ventilator support. Another part 283 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: says that quote persons with severe or profound mental retardation, 284 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: moderate to severe dementia, or catastrophic neurological complications such as 285 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: persistent vegetative state are unlikely candidates for ventilator support. So 286 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 1: it's a like they're essentially saying, Okay, anyone with this 287 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 1: kind of mental disability or super old is will throw 288 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: them in the expendable column there. Yeah, it's and and 289 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 1: also like the language that they're using is so outdated 290 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: and dated, like just like absurd that I don't know, 291 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: I guess we're in our liberal bubble over here, but 292 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: liberal zoom chat. But but yeah, the language choices are 293 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 1: obviously like inexcusable. And then just the the outright prejudice 294 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: that they're they're spelling out here is fucked it's very 295 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: much so the response that I would expect from you know, 296 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: the governor of Alabama, and it's like, just let's go 297 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 1: the most fascist angle that we possibly can with this 298 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 1: outbreak before there's even an outbreak of cases with you know, 299 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: significant numbers, right, let's just articulate that out loud. So 300 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: like they get one call about, like about a case 301 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: of COVID coming, and it's like, all right, first we 302 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: gotta kill all the old people. Uh, anyone who's different? Yeah, 303 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: pretty much, I mean is seeking care to Like it's 304 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: it's like spelling out like, hey, if if this is 305 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: something that affects you, don't even bother seeking the care. Yeah. 306 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: And I think just to say though, too, like how 307 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: are we also you know, allowing these plans to be articulated, 308 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: were clearly saying like this group of people is completely secondary. 309 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: Their needs are secondary to what we will deem as 310 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 1: the desirable population or whatever. It's just really it's really 311 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 1: fucking dark. And I understand like that there probably is 312 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: going to become some kind of point where they're looking 313 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: at not a f resources for the amount of people 314 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: who need the resources, um, but to to go this far, 315 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: it's like it's just so it's so brutal. Uh, And 316 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, obviously this this needs to 317 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: be something that we keep an eye on because it's 318 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: just it's it's fucking eerie. And I asked one of 319 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: my friends who's a nurse. I was like, are you 320 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: seeing anything like this in your hospital? And they said no, 321 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: and just sort of like it's just also very They 322 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: also pointed out how using the term retardation is just 323 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 1: so out of date and just like what we would 324 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: write that into an actual plan UM. But you know, 325 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: I think that times that does happen, it's you know, 326 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: possibly if you are in a persistent vegetative state that 327 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: you know that they may ask your family like what 328 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: the what they would want to do. But again, these 329 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: are well we're starting to see how how willing some 330 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: places are going to be or how willing some states 331 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: are to be humane to their citizens. These are choices. 332 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: These are choices that UM people in like clinicians in 333 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: Italy uh and I think Spain now have had to 334 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 1: make UM because of just lack of resources like this 335 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: is it is a thing where there's uh not enough 336 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: ventilators and like clinicians are literally making a decision between 337 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: who to give the ventilator too and who to not 338 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: give the ventilator to. And a lot of the time, 339 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: you know, they'll give it to someone who is younger 340 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,919 Speaker 1: and they think has a bigger chance of of living, 341 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 1: whereas there like, we don't want to, you know, give 342 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: it to someone who's old and vulnerable and then have 343 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: both of the people die. And it's a really messed 344 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: up decision to have to make. And it's weird to 345 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: preemptively make that decision and then and then also throw 346 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 1: in people who are perfectly healthy, despite some the idea 347 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 1: that anyone with special needs is automatically someone that you 348 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: need to euthanize. Is like it's Nazi ship. It's straight 349 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: up Nazi ship. And and it's like this is this 350 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: is a time in America where we're having a lot 351 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 1: of mask off Nazi people just kind of just being like, well, 352 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 1: time to do a genocide like that, Like no palms 353 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: about it whatsoever. Yeah, it is like the preemptiveness of 354 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 1: just like saying, hey, just so you know, if this, 355 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: if it comes to this, if this decision comes up, 356 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: this is what we're going to do. It just seems 357 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: it feels like fearmongering too. Yeah, and just to like 358 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 1: articulate your discriminatory practice up front, like I guess most 359 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: people don't write it down right exactly. It's it's alarming. 360 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: Um okay, this is one other thing I want to 361 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: say about, especially with like the prison population. There was 362 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 1: a thing where like Governor Cuomo was like, yeah, you know, 363 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: saying that essentially that there would be some of the 364 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: prison population would be working on making hand sanitizer, uh, 365 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: And people are like, what the funk is this? Because again, 366 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: prison labor is a just essentially slavery, but like that, 367 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of people are like, what the 368 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: funk is going on? You know, are they you know, 369 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: who's making this? And it turns out that like this 370 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: hand sanitizer isn't really being made by the inmates. They're 371 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: actually just bottling it and then putting like someone else 372 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: has made the sanitizer. They're bottling it and labeling it. 373 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: And a lot of people are like, what the what's 374 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: the point of this? Like what I don't understand what 375 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: everyone's question is? Is there a need for that? Obviously, 376 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: like they'll I you know, I think those prisoners in 377 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: those uh facilities making like two dollars an hour, basically 378 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: button unconsidable. I don't know what the it just seems 379 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: odd to be like yeah, like look, we're putting our 380 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 1: our our offenders to work. You see, they're not just 381 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 1: partying it up behind bars. We're getting them to work. 382 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: It's just an odd They just want to make everyone, 383 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: everyone who needs hand sanitizer comp listit in uh, modern 384 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 1: day slavery. We gotta find a way to make them complicit. 385 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: Like literally, you find you you're in America. Yeah, it's 386 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: just a fully I mean, it's it's like allowing the 387 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: same lines of like the fact that it's being framed 388 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: as like, look at what we're doing. This is good, 389 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: Like this is we're putting these like citizens to work. 390 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: You're like, no, you're it's just likely considering the power 391 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: of the executive to enact the Defense Production Act and 392 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 1: actually get a company to do it, you know, the 393 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: company with employees, and they're like, well, why do we 394 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 1: need to do all that? We we got you know, 395 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: all these prisoners who can make it. It's like it 396 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: really is yet, Yeah, you can't. You really can't underestimate 397 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: like a conservative government's ability to pinch pennies in the 398 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: times of crisis, you know, Yeah, Okay, onto some other news. 399 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:03,719 Speaker 1: Guess which garment is surging in sales right now?

What do you 492 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: mean they depend on art tour whatever, Like just you're 493 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 1: a hater. All right, let's take a quick break from 494 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: that and we'll be right back checking in with the 495 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: pandemic we're all living through, guys. There's a couple of 496 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: articles about where we are just how like pandemics have 497 00:29:54,680 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: influenced history of that I thought was somewhat interest ing. 498 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: Like there was a story about how the cholera pandemic 499 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: of h one of the centuries that before the twentieth 500 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: century that I don't distinguish between, but it led to 501 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: Russian imperial forces kind of pressing down on the people 502 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: to try to keep them from rioting, which led to uprisings, 503 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: which led to further pressure from above, which eventually led 504 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: to the Bolshevik uprising in the early twentieth century. So 505 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: that was something I hadn't really thought of that that 506 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:37,719 Speaker 1: initially started with a pandemic. And there was another article 507 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: about how bad our health care system is right now, 508 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: and they put it in terms of the economic like 509 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: damage that it does to individuals, and just like our 510 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: economy in general is worse than the penalties put on 511 00:30:55,680 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 1: Germany by the Treaty of Versailles, which was it. That's 512 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: the thing that we all think of as the obvious 513 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: culprit for the rise of Nazism. But I don't know, 514 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: people throughout history have kind of turned on doctors, and 515 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: I'm hoping that's not how we choose to funnel our 516 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: anger in this. I have actually been slightly heartened by 517 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: the fact that the wellness influencers are are taking this seriously. Yeah, 518 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: because I thought that was the real crossroads for them 519 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 1: to be like are they going to be like like 520 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: when they give us a vaccine, like do we want it? 521 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: But they're all like oh no, no, no, like this 522 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 1: is real. Stay home everybody, and like drink all your 523 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: courtis ups. You know, they're still they're still drifting, but 524 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: they're still there. Although Gwyneth Paltrow did post that picture 525 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: where she was wearing a mask and gloves and was like, 526 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: just got back from the Brentwood farmers Market, and then 527 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: a week later that story about the Brentwood farmers Market 528 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: still being crowd now Katherine Schwarzenegger demanding that the city 529 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: shut it down. That was a funny headline. I heard 530 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: that on WHO Weekly this morning, of yeah, the just 531 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:16,239 Speaker 1: being like Katherine Schwarzenegger demands this of Eric Garcetti, and 532 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: you get you're like, oh my god, is it really? 533 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: Is it going to be something amazing? Is Katherine Schwarzenegger 534 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: secretly cool? And then she's just like close the farmer's market, 535 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: which is right, but it's just I think it's not 536 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: that she's cool. She's married to Chris Pratt. Now anyone 537 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: who's super super Christiani, But I think like Arnold Schwarzenegger. 538 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: She's like cooler than you'd expect based on what you imagine, 539 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 1: like when Schwarzeneger was just like more of a libertarian 540 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: than a than a right winger, just in some ways 541 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: where you were like, huh, didn't know that the low bars. 542 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: It's like the president, and anytime he does something that 543 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: isn't actively killing people on a public stage, people like 544 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: his approval a shoots through the roof right, Like keep thinking, 545 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: like what if Schwarzenegger President Schwarzenegger was like the less 546 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: bad timeline you know that happened. I was like, oh, ship, 547 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: like everything's fucked up now. Uh. But then I'm like, well, 548 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: if he were president, you know, the guy who seems 549 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: like an actual Austrian Nazi type guy even more, at 550 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: least we get better environmental protections. It would be too 551 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: on the nose for him to actually turn into a Nazi. Yeah, 552 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: he's like he's he's in the he's like a right 553 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: winger who also wants to smoke pot and uh have 554 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: some environmental protections a k a. Libertarians. Also, he can't 555 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: be president because he wasn't born here. But anyways, I 556 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: would be fun with the public outrage going towards insurance executives. 557 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: Uh and you know grifters, But let's leave doctors alone, please. 558 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: You are any of these executives who are like now 559 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: their plans coming out for like the these airlines like 560 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 1: American Airlines and United to just completely funk over their 561 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: employees despite them getting this bail out money. Like you know, 562 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: That's where I think people need to start there. I mean, 563 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: at the very least, I think people start realizing like 564 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: the powers that are crushing them above them, uh, in 565 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 1: terms of like the system that we're in, And I 566 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 1: think maybe that will that will lead to something. And 567 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 1: I also it brings up the argument of like this 568 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 1: might be a good time. I mean if if obviously 569 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,720 Speaker 1: the world we're perfect, where you could completely go after 570 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,280 Speaker 1: the for profit healthcare insurance system we have and try 571 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: and make it work for everyone. Because this is a 572 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 1: moment where like we need to sort of the same 573 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,879 Speaker 1: sort of protocols and policies for people as we face 574 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: a pandemic. That's what I'm thinking might be the like 575 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 1: the outcome of this is that that just gets torn 576 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: to the ground because it's it's really being exposed as 577 00:34:54,320 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: completely fucked and unprepared for anything like this. Well we 578 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: didn't get to this, um yesterday. I don't know if 579 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: it was touched on in night Guist, but just I mean, 580 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: the relationship between like workers and employers right now, it's 581 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: it's just like it is the issue aside, I mean aside, 582 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,280 Speaker 1: it's a public health issue. And then it's like bringing 583 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 1: to the forefront how important it is to treat workers 584 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: ethically or things absolutely fall the ship in situations like 585 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 1: this where like them the whole situation with the Amazon 586 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: warehouse worker who was rightfully so bringing up the fact 587 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: that hey, social distancing is not being in in like 588 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 1: enforced here, workers are not being protected, um the whole 589 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 1: you know, they're they're lying in terms of like, oh, 590 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: we're we're doing everything we can. And then that person 591 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: who brought it up and tried to organize was fired 592 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: for quote unquote like not social distancing at work. It's 593 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 1: just all such bullshit that like the companies that get assistance, 594 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 1: I mean it almost goes without saying but like one 595 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: of it is or very little of it is going 596 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 1: to actually assisting workers. It's just like taking the check 597 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: and um and moving on. Well that's why I think 598 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 1: a lot of the people in Congress are saying like, 599 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: this is probably just the beginning of multiple stimulus packages 600 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: we're going to have to put together because clear obviously 601 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,879 Speaker 1: the money that they're giving people now is not enough, 602 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 1: especially if they're counting on people to pay their mortgages 603 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: and things like that. So, I mean, it's going to continue. 604 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 1: But that's the thing where it's like, please take the 605 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: second to really look at how the money moves in 606 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,720 Speaker 1: this country and figure out how to make that flow 607 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: more equitably and relieve the pressure on the people who 608 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 1: don't deserve it, and ask people or organizations that have 609 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 1: tons of billions of dollars in their coffers to say, yeah, 610 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: you know what, dude, you're gonna have to fucking take 611 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 1: a hit here. I'm sorry, there's no way this works 612 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,840 Speaker 1: where your nebulous bank account that's attached to these like 613 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: five people in the C suite isn't gonna go down 614 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: because we'd rather pass pain onto millions. Also, like we've 615 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: seen now that money isn't real. You know, they're just like, oh, 616 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: here's a trillion dollars. Oh. They kept saying like, oh, 617 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: how will we pay for healthcare? And it's like, no, 618 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: you just pulled a trillion dollars out of nowhere to 619 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 1: bail out like cruise ships. Really, we can make money 620 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 1: appear when we want to. And the other thing is, 621 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: it's just like techno feudalism clearly is not working, you know, 622 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,720 Speaker 1: like here we have this moment or all these fucking 623 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: billionaires who don't get taxed so that they can like 624 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: share their wealth have the opportunity to do that and 625 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,320 Speaker 1: to be like a hero in a public health crisis, 626 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: and none of them, they all are just crickets from everybody. 627 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: You know, Look at Bloomberg and Tom Styre. They were 628 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,800 Speaker 1: so raw rod shit a fucking month ago, motherfucker. You 629 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 1: might as well you think they took a spaceship to 630 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: another fucking galaxy. That was just like think about all 631 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 1: the money they like flushed down the drain on the 632 00:37:55,760 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: Bloomberg campaign. Just just yeah, where the money goes is 633 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: clearly not subject to logic, And it's just obvious now 634 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 1: that if it is not subject to law of some kind, 635 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 1: it's just never going to happen. Yeah, I mean, the 636 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: whole idea that the US needs to like balance its 637 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: books is such it's like such cynical, Uh, just based 638 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 1: on like a misunderstanding, Like they know that people think 639 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:30,399 Speaker 1: of the government as a as a financial entity rather 640 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: than as a entity that can make its own money 641 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 1: up anytime it wants to um. But they do that too, 642 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 1: you know, enforce austerity measures so that they have all 643 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:47,400 Speaker 1: the money. I've definitely seen people turning on celebrities. Yeah, 644 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: I have been saying that for a couple of weeks. Now. 645 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: I feel like celebrities don't make sense anymore. They don't 646 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 1: make sense and they're not reading the room at all. 647 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: The only people who read the room and did a 648 00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: good job for Britney Spears, Comrade Britney who personally offered 649 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 1: to help people out with bills and diaper money and 650 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:08,720 Speaker 1: stuff on d M and Rihanna who just like gave 651 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 1: like five million dollars and didn't say anything about it. 652 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: That's all we want from rich people right now, and 653 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: celebrities is to just yeah, nobody wants nobody right And 654 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 1: also their wealth is predicated on, you know, exploiting consumers 655 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 1: to give them their money.

It's just like fend 691 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,360 Speaker 1: for yourself is what the rich people have made clear. 692 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 1: Good luck bye. But as Madonna pointed out, it is 693 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: the great equalizer. Oh my god, we're all taking bad. 694 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: Amanda has to write a good thing about it in 695 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 1: The New York Times where she talked about the gal 696 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: Gado video especially, and she was like, it's not only 697 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: tone death, Like literally most of these people can't sing, 698 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: it's right. My favorite part of the gal Gado video 699 00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 1: isn't even the singing, it's the part where she was like, 700 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 1: this whole situation has me feeling really philosophical, and you're like, 701 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: are you talking about also she's a whole zionist, right, Well, 702 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 1: we're talking about heroes of the pandemic. I did want 703 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:19,280 Speaker 1: to bring up really quickly the British American Tobacco Company 704 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: because they are doing the Lord's work. They're the makers 705 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 1: of cigarettes like Rothman's and uh don Draper, Lucky Strike, yeah, 706 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: the classics um and they have said, uh, you know what, coronavirus, 707 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: We kill people by destroying their lungs, not you. And 708 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 1: they are putting money into research to defeat the coronavirus, 709 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: which is weird and I don't like it. Well, it's 710 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 1: odd because they're sort of you know, they've they've pointed 711 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 1: the fact that using they have like a biotech company 712 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 1: that they buy years ago, and they're using tobacco plants 713 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 1: as a way to develop a vaccine. And I guess 714 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: they're saying it's advantageous because tobacco plants quote cannot host 715 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 1: pathogens which cause human disease. So they're saying it's an 716 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 1: easy way, Like they've used this sort of tobacco plant 717 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,759 Speaker 1: strategy before, but never really to the point where like, oh, wow, 718 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 1: they really bailed us out of a pandemic. It's just 719 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 1: like how it's just like lobbying for big tobacco too. 720 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 1: It's just like tobacco a miracle plant that cures ablems. Right, Yeah, 721 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 1: it's incredible how much they I mean, this is a 722 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:44,720 Speaker 1: great just sort of case study and why capitalism doesn't 723 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 1: work because they have so much money and infrastructure built 724 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 1: up of making money off of tobacco that like they 725 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 1: have learned it is this cursed plant that kills everybody, 726 00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,879 Speaker 1: and they just like can't stop. They like so many 727 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:05,240 Speaker 1: people whose jobs are fucking to like find a way 728 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: to just one way or another justify the use of 729 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 1: tobacco in one way or another. That's wild. I mean, 730 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: I guess there is one timeline where like the corporations 731 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,720 Speaker 1: end up doing more, like doing better for the people 732 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: than the governments, and then they become our new leaders 733 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 1: and then we're like, wow, British American tobacco solved coronavirus 734 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:30,799 Speaker 1: because it started with that's totally part of the dystopia 735 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,840 Speaker 1: is because we have no public infrastructure. All these private 736 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,959 Speaker 1: companies are like, I'll be the one, but that's why. Also, 737 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 1: you're like Olive Garden literally like did a better job? Then? Yeah? Wait, 738 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:48,360 Speaker 1: what did all of Garden do other than bottomless bread 739 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 1: bowl and other than change the world. Yeah, they were 740 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 1: extending all their sick leave policies before because they wouldn't 741 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: give people any kind of sick leave, and it was 742 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: just like Dracone, like they're taking away their awful world 743 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: destroying policies. Yeah. I don't know if they solve the 744 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 1: thing where like they get paid on those prepaid cards. 745 00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 1: I know some people who work there get paid on 746 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,240 Speaker 1: a card that like they have a stake in that company, 747 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 1: so they also recoup the service fees. So I don't know. Again, 748 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 1: just just a bare minimum of human of humanity of 749 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 1: being like, oh, our workers are sick, will give them 750 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 1: like a little bit of sick leave so they don't 751 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:36,879 Speaker 1: die and lose all their money. Yeah. But I think 752 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 1: all we need is a government that works and is 753 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 1: by people and not monsters, and the Silicon Valley companies 754 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 1: are never gonna become oral. At this point, I think 755 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 1: we have all separations are specifically designed not and especially 756 00:45:56,920 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 1: like startups are designed to just get around labor laws. 757 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: So we're also coming up against that with the insta 758 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,759 Speaker 1: cart stuff where people are just like, I'm going to outsource. 759 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 1: The dangerous part of this to like a more economically 760 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:12,880 Speaker 1: vulnerable person. You might also still get me sick because 761 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 1: they have to go be out all day shopping for 762 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 1: rich people.

When like 791 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 1: the from Nielsen research, they found that sale of alcohol 792 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 1: alcoholic beverages rose in the weekending March one, and then 793 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 1: spirits like tequila, gin and pre mixed cocktails lead the 794 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:42,320 Speaker 1: way in terms of like the biggest jump increase compared 795 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: to last year, and wine was up sixty six percent 796 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 1: beer up. Is this um like taking into account like 797 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: what's sold to like bars and restaurants to or is 798 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: it like well, I mean I have a feeling because 799 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 1: the week ending March twenty one, a lot of bars 800 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,320 Speaker 1: were not I mean many places work shutting down bars 801 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 1: and things like that. So I think this is purely 802 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 1: from like the consumer level rather than the sousta level. 803 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 1: Unfun science fact, alcohol is pretty closely associated with cancer rates. 804 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:23,200 Speaker 1: Uh so I'm I don't know, man, put down the claw, 805 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 1: but like I'm literally holding a claw right now, cut 806 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:34,640 Speaker 1: it down, baby.

That's another reason why jinx 827 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:54,320 Speaker 1: culture is so prevalent right now. Janine Pierro massive player 828 00:50:54,360 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 1: in the Jinks Frontchise, Oh that's right, hold on, I'm 829 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:04,680 Speaker 1: looking at Janine Pierro young right now. She was agonist, right, 830 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,359 Speaker 1: she's the antagonist.
