At this point, 74 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: if you still sending canaries into that cold mind, I 75 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: think you just hate canaries because they keep dying. Every 76 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: canary you done sent in there is dead. You know 77 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like, let me try one more time. 78 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 1: I had a mentor used to tell me, like, hey, listen, 79 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: it's one thing to walk into a brick wall. Maybe 80 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: you didn't see it. Now if you walk into that 81 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: same brick wall twice, what the hell wrong with you? 82 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: Right so America. I mean, it's literally the name of 83 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: one of our shows. It could happen here, because what 84 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm trying to tell you is it did. Now our 85 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: Pikachu ain't no right you yet, but we here fams now. 86 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: So we give you four categories as to why I 87 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: think we're here. But I want to sober that conversation 88 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: with the reality of historically speaking were not special. This 89 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: isn't the first time a democracy has gone into peril 90 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: or even a cultural regression a collapse. This ain't the 91 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: first time this has happened. And not that I'm gonna 92 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: play historical oppression Olympics, but like you know, we not well, 93 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: we kind of are, but we're not actually putting people 94 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: into arenas to get eight by animals for fun. I mean, 95 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: we're doing it digitally, but we're not like actually doing that. 96 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: I also try to remember what the feeling of the 97 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: coming of the apocalypse that must have been slave capturers, 98 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: like what it really means to uproot your life, like 99 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: in that sense, the terror that those Africans must have felt. 100 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: The only equivalent I can think of is ice, which 101 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: is part of why outside of the sheer humanity of 102 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: it all. Part of why it frustrates me so much 103 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: because I feel like this must be the terror. Maybe 104 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: not the same, but I'm like, I feel like that's 105 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: my closest understanding of it. Now. Don't nothing compare to 106 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: chattel slavery. Don't get me wrong, don't start sending the 107 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: emails like but for you to compare, like, that's not 108 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. What I'm trying to say is like, 109 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: this is world ending. You know, it's world ending again. 110 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: I want to temper this conversation with the fact that 111 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: like societies collapse, nation states fall, Right, there is no 112 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: guarantee that a nation will be here forever. Hell, there 113 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: is no nation that has been here forever on our planet. 114 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: They all develop and at some point morph into something else. 115 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: This is just what it is, right, But sometimes you 116 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: got to take a sober and look and just and 117 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: just like, look yourself in the mirror, have your homies 118 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: look you in the mirror, hould your little chin up 119 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: and be like, baby, if he don't treat you the 120 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: way he should, then let him go. What if it 121 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: all falls, man, you just gotta let it go. Let's 122 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: see what grows from it, which is again the whole 123 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: stance of cool zone media. Let's see if we can 124 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: sow the right seeds into what we can become. Now, 125 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: enough of that flowery shit. I think what I learned 126 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: entering into my forties is the wisdom of knowing the 127 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: difference between what can be worked out and what can't 128 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: be I do have non negotiables, which is part of 129 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: why I don't be getting into like the jubilee thing 130 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: when you get the twenty nine people sitting around you, right, 131 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: and you posted to debate them and kind of stand 132 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: your ground and like educate those people, because I feel 133 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: like this isn't worth my breath because you you just 134 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: trying to get your bars off. I am not going 135 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:30,119 Speaker 1: on anybody's sort of you know, extreme right wing podcast, 136 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: so I could just be, you know, the punching bag 137 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: for your content. We don't we don't exist on the 138 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: same plan. Nothing that there's nothing really talk about. Like 139 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: if you don't see the humanity in another human being, 140 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: you don't see us. You already don't see us as equals, 141 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: so you don't value what I'm about to bring anyway. 142 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: I'm I'm I am a prop no pun intended, but 143 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 1: just like I'm not gonna be I'm not just gonna 144 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,959 Speaker 1: be a piece of furniture for your You know what 145 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I'm saying you don't value what I'm saying. 146 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: So there's no what are we talking about if all 147 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: you're just trying to do is dunk on me, like 148 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: we're not really we're not really talking, especially when it 149 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: comes to issues of like like Gaza, like that, if 150 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: you can't see the humanity or the lack thereof of 151 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: what is happening inside of Gaza, I just don't understand 152 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: what we could talk about. Now it's a different story 153 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 1: if you're making an argument about Israel as a concept, 154 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: you're making an argument about what it means to be 155 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: anti Semitic and Zionist, and that's a different conversation. But 156 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: if you're gonna have that conversation while not acknowledging the 157 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: absolute atrocities, the war crimes, the starvation, that that is wrong. 158 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: Like if you can't, then I'm like, I don't know 159 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 1: what we got to talk about. You don't value human life, 160 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: So like I just what there's all ideas are not 161 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: equal GD Like that's like there's nothing to talk about, right, 162 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 1: we already off the cliff. So even in me making 163 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: this episode as to what I think these red flags are, 164 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: how the flags can't get no more redder than they are, 165 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 1: I am saying this in hopes of us understanding what 166 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: is salvageable what is not salvageable, And I don't know 167 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: the answers to those things, Like I'm gonna be absolutely, 168 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: absolutely a trillion percent real with y'all. I have not 169 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: existed in this timeline before, neither of y'all. I don't 170 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: know what to do right. Everything ain't always a one 171 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: to one. I'm just saying, can we just be real 172 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: with each other and start talking? Stop talking about like 173 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: if the nigga we hear flags ain't getting more red er? Baby? 174 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: Do us do it? So there's four areas that I 175 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: want to cover that I think we've talked about these individually, 176 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: but again when you put them all together, what I'm 177 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: saying is like you have to face we have to 178 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: face reality and stop saying like the if. Now, when 179 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,199 Speaker 1: I invoke the term fascism, I know it's a lot 180 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 1: of preamble, but it's very important. Fascism has a definition. 181 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: Now that definition is morphous. That definition is also connected 182 00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: to time and culture. I'm not getting into specifically into that, 183 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,959 Speaker 1: but what I'm just trying to say is, uh, this 184 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: gumbo that we're looking at, whether you want to call 185 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,119 Speaker 1: it gumbo or not, it got all the ingredients of it, 186 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: is what I'm getting at. Okay, all the ingredients for 187 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: your gumbo. I have picked so many metaphors for this show. 188 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: Let me just get to the content before I talk 189 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: myself crazy. I want to talk about media, education, law, 190 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: and culture. And I think that these issues. I put 191 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: them in this particular order for a very particular reason. 192 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: And it's not because of because when you when you 193 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: look at like how nations fall into autocracies, there is 194 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: an order like in a way that and the way 195 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 1: that that is order is understood, it's it's there's a 196 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: lot of studies around what happened in Turkey or Ertawan 197 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: and the way for which he was able to you know, 198 00:13:55,080 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 1: consolidate power. It went in a particular order, that's them. 199 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: The reason I put this in this order is because 200 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: I want to talk about not so much the academic 201 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: way that historically nations fall into autocracies. I'm talking about 202 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: the way the culture feel, the way that we notice 203 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: it you understand what I'm saying. Like a lot of 204 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: times we're experiencing something different than or not necessarily in 205 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: the same order for which it was presented to us. 206 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: Does that make sense, Like we're perceiving it in a 207 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: different order. You feel me You've ever been in a 208 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: conversation you ain't realize you wasn't listening until the second 209 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: until the second paragraph, and then when the second paragraph 210 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: you kind of finally figured out what they was talking about. 211 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: Does that make sense? Then you got to go back 212 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: and be like, oh, damn, that's what you've been saying 213 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: the whole time. Oh you were setting me up for this, 214 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: but you ain't realize it, you know what I'm saying 215 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: till step three, So you experienced it in different orders. 216 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: I'm trying to say with this one, it don't make 217 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: sense once I start getting it talking. Here we go. 218 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 1: I want to start with the media. Now. I usually 219 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: hate the term the media because there I dot of 220 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: feel like there isn't one the media, right, there are 221 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: a number of conflicting, you know, interests depending on the 222 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: multi conglomerate corporation, your understanding of the press, your understanding 223 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: of the relationship that the government has to the press. 224 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: Everybody feel different about it. You feel me so, I 225 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: hate the idea of there being a term to describe 226 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: all of it. But what else we gonna do? Right, Like, 227 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: you knew what I meant? You feel so again, how 228 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: are you experiencing it versus what the actual definition is? 229 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: Oftentimes are are to not sow the same things. The 230 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: reason why I bring up the media outside of you know, 231 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: creating something like a ruper Murdoch or the Fox News 232 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: networks and stuff like that that tend to uh will 233 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: not tend to that are obviously shelling for whatever. Right 234 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: wing having themselves turned all into a pretzel over Gavin Newsom, 235 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: which is the funniest thing ever. Like it really reminds 236 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: me of when you talk to your kids, the way 237 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: that they talk to you, and they're like, oh, you 238 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: sound lame. Why you sound like that? It's all disrespectful? 239 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: You like, is it? Is it disrespectful? Do you know 240 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: what I'm saying? Like, like, will you try to show 241 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: the absurdity of something? And it's frustrating because they you know, 242 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: they don't you know, they see it, but they don't 243 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: want to admit that they see it. They're like, man, 244 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: Gavin sounds it's even gravel in my mouth for me 245 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: to like defend Gavin Newsom, But they like Gavin sounds unpresidential, 246 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: Like really, I think he sounds like the current president. Anyway, 247 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,719 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about that later. Uh. Media, There's been 248 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: a lot of hoopla made about CBS settling. Now there 249 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: was a reason why I didn't cover it. I didn't 250 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: cover it one because I was like, niggas are getting 251 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: snatched out the streets. I don't give a fuck about 252 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: Paramount you know what I'm saying, And the independence of journalism, 253 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: especially at that level, that's been out the window. Come on, 254 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: cuz it's too much money involved there. So to me, 255 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: I was like, I just don't see anything special for this. Now. 256 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: That would be if it was the only thing, But 257 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 1: if you pull back and you see it in context 258 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: of everything else that's going crazy. Now if you don't know, 259 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: there was this lawsuit that was egregious that anybody that 260 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: understands the law looked at this lawsuit that the Trump 261 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: administration had against CBS, which is a subsidiary of Paramount Right, 262 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: and the lawsuit was the way for which they edited 263 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: a commercial and a clip of an interview with presidential 264 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: hopeful Kamala Harris where she was speaking on a particular topic. 265 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: Their argument is the clips were edited differently as to 266 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: deceive the public as to what she was actually trying 267 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: to say, thus influencing the election. That those cuts unfairly 268 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: skewed the perception of the public to who Kamala Harris is. Now, 269 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: like I said, everybody in the law was like, this 270 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: is ridiculous, what is you talking about. So the lawsuit 271 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: was over this interview that was edited and it was 272 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 1: a stupid lawsuit that was nonsense. But they were But 273 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: the reason why CBS had to take this serious is 274 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: because they were trying to push together a merger a buyout. Right, 275 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: they were trying to sell their company to a company 276 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: called sky Dance. Now, the onliest people that can approve 277 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: that is the executive branch. So you got this person 278 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:50,479 Speaker 1: who has an absolutely egregious, untruthful, what the hell are 279 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: you talking about lawsuit happening right now. What's crazy to 280 00:19:55,400 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 1: me is like Paramount has a bunch of different French subsidiaries. 281 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: They got all these different sets. There's like I there's 282 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: like Wikipedia, there's like seventy nine companies under this umbrella. Right, 283 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: CBS is just one of them. So you could be like, Nigga, 284 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: ain't paying you shit, Like what are you talking about? Hell, 285 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: I'll fold CBS. I don't even care that much. It's 286 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 1: not that serious. Or you could be like, I don't 287 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: need this, I don't need this skydance deal to go 288 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: through that bad We didn't do anything wrong. What you're 289 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: talking about is crazy. Or you do what the white 290 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: people do, which is just settle it. The juice ain't 291 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 1: worth the squeeze. Let's figure out a way to make 292 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: this go away, and let's just be done with it. 293 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,160 Speaker 1: But with Trump, it's not about the money. It's about 294 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: the narrative. But we know that, right, So Paramount agrees 295 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: to pay sixteen million dollars to Trump, but not directly 296 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: to Trump, but his future library or other causes, not him. 297 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: But they still made no apology. Now when you paid 298 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: the dude, whether you say you're not making an apology 299 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,959 Speaker 1: or not, it feel like you're making an apology. It 300 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 1: feel like you're admitting you wrong because you just paying them, 301 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 1: but they paying them to let it go. Now, in 302 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 1: a world where gravity still works, it's like, you know 303 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: what it is what it is. He childish, He being childish, 304 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: and I know if I don't agree with you, you're 305 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: not gonna let this business thing go through. So we 306 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: get it. The only problem is this is about an election, 307 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: and the dumbest shit about it is it's an election. 308 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 1: You won. What the what are you talking about? You 309 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: know what he's talking about. He's saying, it's the principal 310 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: palatis of it. Messing with my name is like messing 311 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 1: with my emotions. And what are you trying to do 312 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: is to say you say, what the fuck? I'll let 313 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: you say. Now, if you was out on a date 314 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: with the significant other and you was trying to tell 315 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: a story, right, and you got a partner that as 316 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 1: you're telling the story keeps interrupting you. He said, I 317 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: think we was hanging out on Tuesday. Now it was 318 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: a Wednesday. It's like, oh my bad, it was a Wednesday, 319 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: and I believe we was gonna play spades. No, no, no, 320 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: we weren't gonna play spades. You don't remember it, right, Like, okay, no, 321 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: we weren't playing spades. We're playing Domino's and I won 322 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: the game, and you like pre sure of spades. But 323 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: it does it kind of doesn't make a difference whether 324 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: it's Tuesday or Wednesday. It's not even the point of 325 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 1: the story whether you won the game or not. And 326 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, you didn't win the game, 327 00:22:55,560 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: but you like anyway. And then you try to continue 328 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 1: to tell your story, but every five minutes this person 329 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: keep cutting you off and saying and then you get 330 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: in the car, then that person says, hey, don't be 331 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 1: telling stories like that. Don't talk, don't you don't like whatever? 332 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: You can talk to me first before you gonna say something. 333 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: Do you keep dating that person? Maybe they was embarrassed, 334 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: Maybe you mature enough to say, tell me about your 335 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: last relationship. Do you feel like you was the butt 336 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: of every joke? Do you feel like every time your 337 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: partner would talk that every story seemed like it made 338 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: them the hero and you the villain and the story. 339 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 1: If that person says yes, and you go, oh, you 340 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: was just triggered. Okay, I don't like the way you 341 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: talk to me like that. I feel very disrespected in 342 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 1: front of all these people that you was willing to, 343 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 1: like shut me down in the middle of a conversation. 344 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,959 Speaker 1: I'm gonna need you to not do that. But I 345 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: understand what you're trying to say. What you're trying to 346 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: say is you don't ever want to feel like you're 347 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: being made less of. I understand that. What I'm not 348 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: gonna do is run every story by you. Now, that 349 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: would be the mature way to handle that. But if 350 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: you live with this person and they pay your phone 351 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: bill and they pay your card note, you might be 352 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 1: tempted to just shut up. But at the end of 353 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: the day, what this is is you letting that one 354 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: thing slide. You let that moment slide. And when you 355 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: let that moment slide, what that mean is that person 356 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 1: always knows right that And this is this is this 357 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: is the hood politics part. There's some stuff that, like 358 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: you got some some people you just can't let stuff 359 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: slide with because if you let that one thing slide, 360 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: there's seven other things that are coming. Right. So what 361 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: what journalism was saying is like listen, him doing this 362 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: is poking his finger in your chest and telling you 363 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: watch your fucking mouth right now.

Man, just like, just tell him, 367 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,919 Speaker 1: just tell him, okay, And now everybody else is like 368 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: so now, so that's basically it.

I'm still talking about it 399 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,879 Speaker 1: because it just happened in real time right now. But like, 400 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: that's what they did. They got their brand. Now you 401 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: could say they compromised, you could say they still took 402 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: the check. Let me get as close as I can 403 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: to this camera. Now. I know this is for most 404 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: of y'all.

You taking that check anyway, 411 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: all that stuff it makes way for somebody like a 412 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: Greg Guttfeld, who truly has the worst name on the planet. 413 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: Like Gutfeld, I don't understand why your name's so bad 414 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: and why you ain't check ain't anyway.

Maybe Gutfeld is a name 417 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: from another culture that I am being insensitive about you, 418 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: right he asshole, though I don't know what else to 419 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: tell you. Him talking about Nazi, this Nazi that like 420 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: cracking jokes. I think maybe we should learn from the Blacks. Now, 421 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: let me pause right there. Uh. If ever I hear 422 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: anybody talking to me or around me and they use 423 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: the phrase the Blacks, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna 424 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: stop you right there, chief, I'm gonna go ahead and 425 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: stop you right there.

I know the next 429 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: shit you're gonna say is racist. I already know it's 430 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: gonna be some dumb the blacks. Yeah, bro, I'm good. 431 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: Don't finish that sentence. I'm telling you, I'm old enough 432 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: to know now some things are not salvageable. Everything after 433 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: that is gonna be some bullshit, which is what happened. 434 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: He said, Uh, maybe we should start learning from the Blacks, 435 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: like how they do it the n word like we 436 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: own it, Like, what's up, my Nazi? What's up? Like 437 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: He's like, they took the power, They took the power, 438 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: they took the sting out of the in word, and 439 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: they just claimed it as their own as a term 440 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: of endearment. You're trying to take the sting out of Nazi. 441 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: This what happens. This what happens when you need that 442 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: bread so much that you let that man shut you 443 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: up at dinner. Now I'm saying that while on iHeartMedia. 444 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: I totally understand. I don't want this to happen, but 445 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: because I really need this, But I am not paramount. 446 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: You understand what I'm saying. Where I'm like, look, okay, 447 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: if it don't work, it don't work, paramount and willing 448 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: to walk away. You got to be willing to be like, 449 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: you can have all this shit y'all said anyway, that 450 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: by itself would be unsettling already, But it's also happening 451 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: in education next. Now, in education again, the government is 452 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: sueing Harvard. Now here we go. Let me be real 453 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: with y'all, because people have positions and preferences. Of course, 454 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: our institutions will our colleges left leaning? They not as 455 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 1: left as I am, But are they left leaning? Sure? 456 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: Is there a type of indoctrination? I feel like all 457 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: education is is impossible to not indoctrinate. Don't let them 458 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: right way. Your people fool you. You're acculturating. You think 459 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: education is neutral. It never's been. It is about being 460 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 1: able to function in our societies. Our societies is a culturation. 461 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: It is in doctrination. That's exactly what it is. There's 462 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: nothing like. That's not a bad word. The question is 463 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: to what end you understand what I'm saying. Is this 464 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: a desire for power? Is this a desire to subjugate? 465 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: Is this a rature of history? Whatever the case may 466 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: be of course there's there so as someone who may 467 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: lean right, sure you can argue that colleges are incredibly 468 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: liberal and maybe you feel like your voices are not 469 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: being heard partially because your voices be trashed. But let 470 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: me let me not say that. But over you know, 471 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: Columbia University and Harvard have ended up settling in the 472 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: same way that you know CBS ended up settling, and 473 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 1: they're paying the president this money. Now, at some point 474 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: we have to discuss, which we're gonna talk about later, 475 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: why it's okay for this man to get all his 476 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: money from these settlements, but while he's the president. But 477 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: we'll put that aside for a second. Now, if you 478 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: don't know how that case went during the protests last 479 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: year where against the war on the citizens of Gaza, right, 480 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 1: all of the teachings, the sit ins, whatever. Right, the 481 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: claim is that, I think we talked about this before, 482 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: when you weaponize somebody else's suffer. So they borrowed this 483 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: anti semitism. Now, don't get me wrong, it's not like, 484 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: you know, movements are pure in motives and people. There 485 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 1: were probably a number of people there that were anti Semitic, right, 486 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: There was probably a number of people there that it's 487 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: at least whether that person meant to or not felt 488 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 1: what it felt like as a black person, I know 489 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: that experience. Well maybe this person that's talking to me 490 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: don't know. It's their intention. Their knowledge base was not 491 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: to be anti black. Their actions were whether they meant 492 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: or at least it felt anti black. I'll give you that. Okay, 493 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:49,479 Speaker 1: maybe that was there, but also this was not the 494 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: tone of the movement. The tone of the movement was 495 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: something very different, something that we have obviously here on 496 00:33:56,120 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: cool Zone Media rock with a trillion percent, just like 497 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter and all those things. Of course, these 498 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: are not perfect institutions, but it is what it is. 499 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 1: And what the government came in and said was like, 500 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: you did not crack down on the anti semitism and 501 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 1: if you don't do anything about that, and as a 502 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,479 Speaker 1: matter of fact, what's up with artist DEI you doing? 503 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: Why I need you to start? Dim Nigga said, well, oh, actually, 504 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 1: actually this is the what it turns into, so I'll 505 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: get to this, dim Nigga said at the end. But 506 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: the attitude was I don't like your recruiting. You're not 507 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: following the laws around anti discrimination. You are not giving 508 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: everyone a fair chance. And if you want to keep 509 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: getting these big endowments for all the other shit you're doing, 510 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 1: if you won't that I need to see these anti 511 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 1: Semitic things. I need to see these particular things happening. 512 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: If not, I'm seeing you. So what they were saying 513 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:03,760 Speaker 1: is they was pulling funding right from their science research. Now, 514 00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: as anybody who has any understanding of how we're seen 515 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: on the globe, Nigga, we suck at everything except for 516 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: incarcerating our own people in mass shooting. That's the only 517 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: thing we number one in except for medical research. Because 518 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: our country spends so much money in dowing the sciences. 519 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: We have been leading the world for a while. And 520 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: this man is so full of himself that he gonna 521 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: shoot his own self in the foot the one thing 522 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 1: we do better than everybody else. He gonna remove the funding. Now, 523 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: these institutions, they're not helping themselves by being some of 524 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 1: the most wealthy and elite institutions on the planet, right, 525 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: They're not helping themselves for being like that. But what 526 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: they're saying is, I don't understand how the medical research 527 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 1: got anything to do with us cracking down our anti Semitism. 528 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: Help me understand what those two things have to do 529 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: with each other. And you know what, our children they 530 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: have rights, my nigga, if they want a protest, they 531 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 1: could protest. They have rights. I don't understand, and I 532 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,799 Speaker 1: don't understand why none of you talking about none of 533 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: the anti Arab, none of the Islamophobic stuff. You only 534 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: worried about the anti Simons and both the shit was happening, 535 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: we was trying to handle it all. What that got 536 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: to do with our science research? Shit? So Harvard clapped back. 537 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 1: But the problem is, Harvard ain't the US damn government. 538 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 1: At some point, you're gonna run out of money. So 539 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways where I'm like Harvard, you 540 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: came back down. You can't let that man put his 541 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:49,360 Speaker 1: finger in your face the way that he did to 542 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: the media. You can't let him do it. But the 543 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: problem is, as rich as Harvard is, they ain't got 544 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: government money. We at some point have to start running 545 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: the school. And listen, if we just say fuck you 546 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: take the money, then we don't need it. Guess what happens. 547 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: That's less people that get enrolled, that's less scholarships we 548 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,280 Speaker 1: could get out. That's less people we can invite. That's less. 549 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 1: We're like and I listen, far be it for me 550 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 1: to defend the IVY League. But they trying their best 551 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 1: in some ways to recruit in the hood, to get 552 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 1: people from other coades, to bring people from the country 553 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 1: to try to diversify. They try it. Maybe they're not 554 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 1: doing that good of a job at it, but they 555 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: try it. You saying they can't do it. So at 556 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:29,880 Speaker 1: the end of the day they had to be like, 557 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,399 Speaker 1: Okay with this bullshit, he doing it. It's either that 558 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:38,279 Speaker 1: or not enroll these people or raise their tuition. They 559 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 1: tuition and lo hard loud enough you would say fuck 560 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 1: you get one of the rich guys to like kick in. 561 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 1: You still don't have you fighting a US treasury. You 562 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: have money, but not that much money. So they settled. 563 00:37:55,400 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 1: What fuck was they gonna do again? You in the 564 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,320 Speaker 1: car now, he yelling at you, saying, don't be telling 565 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 1: stories about me when I'm talking, Like, first of all, 566 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: you weren't talking, and number two, you remembered it wrong. 567 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: But he ain't trying to hear that right now. He 568 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: in the car looking at you, saying I don't like 569 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 1: the way you didn't defend me. When that person made 570 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: that joke and you like that joke. Ain't had nothing 571 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: to do with you. That was a general joke. No, 572 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 1: it did. It offended me. It's like, I don't understand 573 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: how that offended you. I ain't had nothing to do 574 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:33,279 Speaker 1: with you. But if you live with him, but if 575 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 1: he pay your bills, but if he could fuck up 576 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: everything else around you. He can go to your job 577 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 1: and train and change and just mess up stuff at school. 578 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: And now all this good you trying to do in 579 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: the world get messed up just because he didn't hurt 580 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: his feelings. The baby get out that car. I'll just 581 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 1: give it to him, you know what I'm saying. Okay, 582 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: I guess you just give it to him. But then 583 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: the next thing, Trumps and the administration say, I need 584 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: to see the demographic information of everybody you try to recruit, age, race, socioeconomic, gender. 585 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 1: I need to see it all just so I can 586 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: see if you're doing any of that woke shit. So 587 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 1: what you're saying is we can't. We can only recruit 588 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: like here's here's what again. The footshoot is the footshoot 589 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 1: in your foot shoot? Killing shoot yourself in the foot shit? 590 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: You act like white people don't come poor also, But 591 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: what you're telling me is we not allowed they not 592 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 1: allowed to recruit in certain areas just in case the 593 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 1: demographic don't look the way you want it to look. 594 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: What you're saying is these places is too brown. I 595 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: need to make sure you not doing brown shit. What 596 00:39:55,840 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 1: the hell is that your business? Who re recruit? Right? 597 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 1: He made it his business. Now by itself, that would suck. 598 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:17,760 Speaker 1: But put it all together, that flag don't get no redder. 599 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: Here's more on the education now. You you cancel NPRS, 600 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 1: you cancel PBSS. That's one thing. You cut its funding 601 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,320 Speaker 1: because again you believe some sort of lie about how 602 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: when somebody tell you what actually happened in history, it 603 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: means they leftist, which is funny to me. Oh that's 604 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: liberal talk. No, it's kind of just what happened anyway, 605 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:44,919 Speaker 1: So you believe that. Hey, it's only a percentage. Now, 606 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 1: we got to listen to the npr people asking us 607 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 1: for more money, I get it right. But the people 608 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:58,799 Speaker 1: trying to get themselves in position to replace PBS is 609 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: Prager University. You may have heard of Dennis Prager. I 610 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:05,720 Speaker 1: know if you listen to any of our other shows 611 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,760 Speaker 1: or even to even more news. They did a whole 612 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:12,399 Speaker 1: thing called Prager University. How this nigga be making shit up? 613 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 1: The big one that's going around on social media now 614 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:21,240 Speaker 1: is this clip where they're trying to explain to children 615 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 1: slavery that it really wasn't that bad, right and that 616 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: slave is being taken as a slave better than being killed. No, 617 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 1: So before you judge, ask yourself, what did the culture 618 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: and the society of the time treat as no big deal? 619 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: You understand that? Do you understand what you're trying to do? Right? 620 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 1: Like that's just one. You go through the different pieces 621 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 1: of these stories about American past, which here's what's even 622 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 1: more frustrating is if you're a person the color, you 623 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:05,359 Speaker 1: already feel like the origin stories of the country that 624 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: we learn in elementary school is already wrong. Thank God 625 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: for PBS, because I know them books wasn't telling us. 626 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 1: I Lucky for me, I had a black panther father, 627 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:17,479 Speaker 1: so there was a lot of stuff that I could 628 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 1: listen to the teacher and go wrong, you know what 629 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying. But this, however, it's like it's almost it's 630 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: almost laughable, where it's like you surely you can't be Surely, 631 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,720 Speaker 1: surely you're not trying to suggest that maybe slavery wasn't 632 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 1: that bad, which I think is what they're trying to access. 633 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 1: You know what that leads to, That leads to that 634 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,799 Speaker 1: lady on CNN last week talking about, you know, only 635 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 1: two percent of white people own slaves. Okay, let's just 636 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: say that that stat was accurate and not misleading. Saying 637 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:04,240 Speaker 1: that makes said okay, is this is this you trying 638 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 1: to say that racism don't exist, and that it didn't 639 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,280 Speaker 1: exist back then, and that the majority of white people 640 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: were not for this sort of race. Is that I'm 641 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 1: not even gonna get into how you completely skewing those 642 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 1: those numbers or the fact that white people still benefited 643 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: from slavery. I'm not even gonna get into that. Uh, 644 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 1: I'm saying, is the point you're trying to make that 645 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 1: racism wasn't that bad, It's not as bad as we 646 00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: say it was. Is that your point? Because if that's 647 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:46,279 Speaker 1: your point, our conversation is over. Because some things are 648 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:52,919 Speaker 1: not salvageable. That flag is so red, which is what's 649 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: so agreevous about this attack on education is because it 650 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: come at it from every angle. Either. No, that's not 651 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: how it went or okay, that's how it went, but 652 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 1: it wasn't that bad, right You know what? That is 653 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 1: Nazi shit now the law as there are federal agents 654 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 1: inside of Washington, DC right now, and ICE agents all 655 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 1: over southern California, Federal as National Guard comes into our 656 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: streets as them foods tried to bring the Marines. It 657 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: would be e to consider this like a Gustafo, but 658 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: the reality is it's not as Gustafo as nothing, as 659 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:12,279 Speaker 1: much as it is secret police. Let me uh, let 660 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: me talk to you, Okay again, History is never a 661 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:20,840 Speaker 1: one for one right now, but not for nothing. Before 662 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 1: the Nazis went full gas chamber, the Department of Jewish Affairs, 663 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,240 Speaker 1: that was the thing used to send letters to quote 664 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 1: unquote immigrants for them to report to immigration offices to 665 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,839 Speaker 1: check their visas. And when they got there, they would 666 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 1: just arrest them and deport them or put them in 667 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 1: holding sales. But sure ICE is nothing like that. Here's 668 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:46,319 Speaker 1: the thing, numb nuts. Okay, I'm not talking about I 669 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 1: shouldn't call you that, but that's the worst I would 670 00:45:50,719 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 1: call the person if it were about lazy, not on 671 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:08,239 Speaker 1: working criminals. Why are you going to job locations to 672 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: capture people. If it was about the fact that immigrants 673 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,280 Speaker 1: don't pay taxes, why are you going to the irs 674 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 1: to get information that don't? Then you don't like that, 675 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 1: don't If it was about the fact that they don't 676 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,840 Speaker 1: follow the law and they're here illegal taking advantage of 677 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 1: the system, why would you capture them at the courthouse. 678 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 1: You just went to get working, tax paying people trying 679 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 1: to follow the rules. I know that because that's where 680 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 1: you're capturing them. So what the what did you talking about? 681 00:46:55,280 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 1: You playing with me in my face? Right now, I'm 682 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 1: going to read from Lee Morgan Bresser. He's an associate 683 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:10,800 Speaker 1: professor of School of Government in International Relationships in Relation 684 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 1: at Griffith University. Right, so, the politicians or public figures 685 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:18,399 Speaker 1: are looking for better historical comparisons law enforcement agencies that 686 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 1: use the severe tactics. There is unfortunately no shortage of options. 687 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: You got the Soviet Union secret police agencies, the NKVD 688 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: and the KGB, it's Iran's former secret police, the Intelligent 689 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: Agency SAVOOC, which is SAVAC, which is sa v AK 690 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 1: or East Germany's STAS, right, to name a few. They're 691 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:48,440 Speaker 1: a lot more like secret police. Now, since I is 692 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:54,280 Speaker 1: technically still bound by constitutional limits, its operations has bared 693 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,399 Speaker 1: most of the hallmarks of secret police. Now check this out. 694 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:03,840 Speaker 1: As an expert authoritarian regimes, I've studied many contemporary secret 695 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 1: police forces and extensively in Africa, Asia and Europe. And 696 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 1: these are the five types of criteria. Now stay with me. Now, 697 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: there are police force targeting potential opponents of dissonance. They 698 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 1: are not controlled by other security agencies and answer only 699 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 1: directly to the dictator. They identify the identity of the members, 700 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 1: and their operations are secret. They specialize in political intelligence 701 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:48,240 Speaker 1: and surveillance operations, and they carry out arbitrary searches, arrests, interrogations, 702 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:53,760 Speaker 1: in definite detentions, disappearances, and torture. Now, like I said, 703 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 1: history is rarely one to one. But boy, I tell 704 00:48:56,640 --> 00:49:01,880 Speaker 1: you in DC day up there talking about we cleaning 705 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,880 Speaker 1: up crime. Now, a problem with the crime and especially 706 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,960 Speaker 1: crime rates first of all, is down thirty percent, like 707 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 1: we talked about. And even in that and even the 708 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 1: whatever the crime rate. And remember I always talked about 709 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: like crime rates a lot of times is your felt experience, 710 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 1: Maybe DC as a whole has crime that dropped thirty percent. 711 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,320 Speaker 1: But you might be out there in southeast, south southeast, 712 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:26,759 Speaker 1: it might be going down in southeast, right, but you 713 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,239 Speaker 1: go up to northeast. You know what I'm saying, You 714 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 1: up on U Street is fine, right, It's so it 715 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: might be concentrated in a particular area. But for you 716 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 1: to say that you need to take over all of it, 717 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 1: but either way, for you to take say you need 718 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,960 Speaker 1: to take over all of it is already ridiculous. But 719 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 1: either way, even if you're not taking over the whole thing, 720 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 1: there's nothing about these numbers that say that that the 721 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 1: police ain't gotta cover anyway. They told them, homeless folk, here, 722 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: here's the thing. Check this out. We're gonna build some 723 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 1: housing for you, which, of course, obviously, look at me, 724 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:00,800 Speaker 1: don't trust them niggas. Of course they're not going to 725 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:05,200 Speaker 1: do that for you. So there's that. Right. Then they said, 726 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 1: if not, you can go into a rehab center, and 727 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 1: if not, we might take it in jail. So what 728 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:19,920 Speaker 1: you're saying is it's just the The crime is being poor. 729 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:22,359 Speaker 1: So the crime is not having a place to go. 730 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 1: So the crime is just being you, Like that's the crime. 731 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:28,759 Speaker 1: The crime is you because no one has yet to 732 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 1: tell me. Now, houseless people may lead to crime happening. 733 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:38,720 Speaker 1: But like my man Bamboo says, if you see someone 734 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:48,879 Speaker 1: stealing food, no you didn't. And finally, culture, Now this guy, 735 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: this man is not exactly the not exactly an icon 736 00:50:56,920 --> 00:51:00,600 Speaker 1: of fashion. We could say that, but so I'm not 737 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:04,120 Speaker 1: saying culture is in the culture. What I'm saying culture 738 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,080 Speaker 1: is in the idea of the idea of wanting to 739 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:09,800 Speaker 1: rename the Kennedy Center. I still believe this man stuck 740 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:14,480 Speaker 1: in the eighties. But I know this by him not 741 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 1: only hosting the Kennedy Center Awards, but choosing who wins 742 00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 1: Georgia Strait, Michael Crawford, Sylvester Stallone, Gloria Gaynor, who's known 743 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 1: for I Will Survive. He overhauled the Kennedy's leadership by 744 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 1: dismissing all the board and in the Trump's Big Beautiful 745 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:44,319 Speaker 1: Bill offers two hundred fifty seven million dollars to the 746 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,160 Speaker 1: Kennedy Center, which is six times what it normally gets 747 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:52,399 Speaker 1: from Congress annually. Now, I don't give two shits who 748 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:57,560 Speaker 1: wins a Kennedy Center award, which means also why should 749 00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:03,319 Speaker 1: he by itself? No big deal, doesn't matter but why 750 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:09,080 Speaker 1: do you get to choose? It's control. So that same 751 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:11,440 Speaker 1: man that won't let you talk and tell stories, that's 752 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,319 Speaker 1: mad at you when you don't defend him in front 753 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:18,239 Speaker 1: of everybody, is also choosing what shows y'all, watch what 754 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:22,480 Speaker 1: streamers y'all use. He don't like you looking at No 755 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 1: House of Dragon because it got black dragons in it. 756 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Because the Valerians Viceius in 757 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 1: them is black with white dreadlocks. They don't like the 758 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:41,320 Speaker 1: New Little Mermaid because it got a black Mermaid by itself. 759 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:47,439 Speaker 1: It's no big deal, a little weird, maybe, no big deal. 760 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 1: But it seems like you're trying to control the media, 761 00:52:53,719 --> 00:53:04,720 Speaker 1: the police, the schools, and the culture. Sounds like fascist. 762 00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 1: Baby them flags, them flags, is Sue whooping?
