1 00:00:11,697 --> 00:00:14,977 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure 2 00:00:15,017 --> 00:00:17,977 Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or 3 00:00:18,017 --> 00:00:22,217 Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. How do you get seemingly 4 00:00:22,777 --> 00:00:29,577 Speaker 1: otherwise normal, middle class suburban women to chase after ice officers, 5 00:00:29,617 --> 00:00:32,337 Speaker 1: scream in their faces, spit at them. How do you 6 00:00:32,497 --> 00:00:38,097 Speaker 1: get individuals to act out violently because they think they're 7 00:00:38,137 --> 00:00:44,857 Speaker 1: stopping a trans genocide. How do you convince people that 8 00:00:45,377 --> 00:00:51,657 Speaker 1: unless they change their individual habits around electricity usage, they're 9 00:00:51,657 --> 00:00:57,417 Speaker 1: destroying the planet. It's all delusional madness, and it is 10 00:00:58,177 --> 00:01:00,457 Speaker 1: the topic of my book My Friends, which is out 11 00:01:00,817 --> 00:01:04,697 Speaker 1: February seventeenth, as in tomorrow a lot. Do you be 12 00:01:04,737 --> 00:01:08,337 Speaker 1: listening to this on the day of it though, Manufacturing delusion, 13 00:01:08,417 --> 00:01:13,257 Speaker 1: how the left uses brainwashing, doctrination and propaganda against you. Yes. 14 00:01:13,337 --> 00:01:15,057 Speaker 1: In this podcast, I'm going to talk to you about 15 00:01:15,137 --> 00:01:18,257 Speaker 1: why this book ties right into some of the most 16 00:01:18,297 --> 00:01:23,857 Speaker 1: important issues of the day, news wise, but also I 17 00:01:23,897 --> 00:01:26,857 Speaker 1: wanted to tell you please go buy copy of the book. 18 00:01:27,497 --> 00:01:33,377 Speaker 1: There's a real problem these days with the conservative I 19 00:01:33,377 --> 00:01:37,057 Speaker 1: don't know, we'd say intellectual sphere. Books are really hard 20 00:01:37,097 --> 00:01:40,457 Speaker 1: to sell these days, and that shouldn't be the case. 21 00:01:40,737 --> 00:01:43,217 Speaker 1: We have been the book people on the right here 22 00:01:43,417 --> 00:01:47,137 Speaker 1: in media for a long time, and I remember buying 23 00:01:47,137 --> 00:01:49,977 Speaker 1: books by my favorite right wing authors starting in high 24 00:01:50,017 --> 00:01:52,937 Speaker 1: school and all through college. So that's another thing here. 25 00:01:53,177 --> 00:01:55,057 Speaker 1: We need to get back to books. I understand everything 26 00:01:55,097 --> 00:01:57,817 Speaker 1: in social media. It's all twenty second sound bites. It's 27 00:01:57,857 --> 00:02:01,457 Speaker 1: all scroll, scroll, scroll scroll. This book has a lot 28 00:02:01,497 --> 00:02:03,857 Speaker 1: of research in it. This book has a lot that 29 00:02:04,057 --> 00:02:07,577 Speaker 1: I think you will enjoy learning about that you need 30 00:02:07,577 --> 00:02:10,497 Speaker 1: to learn about. And I am very clear about this 31 00:02:10,537 --> 00:02:13,697 Speaker 1: in the beginning of it. This is the biggest challenge 32 00:02:13,697 --> 00:02:18,017 Speaker 1: that we face with AI. With the increases I think 33 00:02:18,177 --> 00:02:21,537 Speaker 1: in human productivity that we're going to see and the 34 00:02:21,577 --> 00:02:26,337 Speaker 1: technological abilities that we have as a human species. It's 35 00:02:26,417 --> 00:02:30,017 Speaker 1: not the natural world that's going to do us in. 36 00:02:30,737 --> 00:02:36,417 Speaker 1: It's not some pandemic, it's not global warming, climate change, whatever. 37 00:02:37,057 --> 00:02:40,777 Speaker 1: We are. The biggest threat to humanity. We other humans 38 00:02:41,577 --> 00:02:46,697 Speaker 1: and the madness that can take over large segments of 39 00:02:46,777 --> 00:02:49,937 Speaker 1: the world. At one time, we saw this during COVID. 40 00:02:49,937 --> 00:02:51,817 Speaker 1: But really, a case I make in the book is 41 00:02:52,617 --> 00:02:57,777 Speaker 1: communism is essentially a delusion. It is a madness. Totalitarianism 42 00:02:58,057 --> 00:03:02,857 Speaker 1: is rooted in delusions and in lies and in madness, 43 00:03:03,097 --> 00:03:08,257 Speaker 1: And there are playbooks, there are tactics, things that are 44 00:03:08,337 --> 00:03:14,417 Speaker 1: done by to talitarians in order to achieve the level 45 00:03:14,617 --> 00:03:17,617 Speaker 1: of mind control. Things like these are different chapters in 46 00:03:17,657 --> 00:03:26,697 Speaker 1: the book. Isolation, fear, indoctrination, menticide, brainwashing, thought reform. These 47 00:03:26,697 --> 00:03:29,657 Speaker 1: are all things I get into in the book. You're like, well, Buck, 48 00:03:29,697 --> 00:03:33,217 Speaker 1: what are those things? Ah? That is why you should 49 00:03:33,297 --> 00:03:35,777 Speaker 1: get a copy of this. But you know, how do 50 00:03:35,897 --> 00:03:40,817 Speaker 1: you get something like forty percent of Democrats all through 51 00:03:40,817 --> 00:03:45,297 Speaker 1: Trump's first term believed in Trump's first term that he 52 00:03:45,537 --> 00:03:49,617 Speaker 1: had hacked into or worked with Russia to hack into 53 00:03:49,617 --> 00:03:52,657 Speaker 1: election machines to change votes. That was never a serious 54 00:03:52,657 --> 00:03:57,617 Speaker 1: accusation really made anywhere, but there was a belief that 55 00:03:57,617 --> 00:04:01,537 Speaker 1: that happened. And it was through indoctrination. It was really 56 00:04:01,577 --> 00:04:06,817 Speaker 1: through propaganda that people started to believe that in large numbers. 57 00:04:07,657 --> 00:04:10,177 Speaker 1: How is it that you can convince the America in 58 00:04:10,217 --> 00:04:15,697 Speaker 1: public overall that doctor Fauci with his little masks and 59 00:04:15,737 --> 00:04:21,777 Speaker 1: the Fauci Auci the needle. You know, that's that that 60 00:04:21,937 --> 00:04:27,177 Speaker 1: somehow was going to keep you safe from COVID is insane. 61 00:04:27,577 --> 00:04:29,897 Speaker 1: All of the data was showing you that this wasn't 62 00:04:30,057 --> 00:04:32,817 Speaker 1: your observations. Forget about data, forget about reading studies, your 63 00:04:32,857 --> 00:04:36,657 Speaker 1: observations around you. But people came to believe, Oh, I 64 00:04:36,697 --> 00:04:40,977 Speaker 1: have this mask on, I'm safe. It's a delusion. But 65 00:04:41,017 --> 00:04:43,057 Speaker 1: it's not just a delusion that came upon you. It 66 00:04:43,137 --> 00:04:48,657 Speaker 1: is a manufactured delusion. It is made, it is built 67 00:04:48,937 --> 00:04:53,577 Speaker 1: into you. There there is a process of forcing this 68 00:04:54,377 --> 00:04:57,457 Speaker 1: into our brains. And I do believe that this is 69 00:04:57,497 --> 00:05:01,177 Speaker 1: the single biggest threat that we face because if you 70 00:05:01,217 --> 00:05:05,017 Speaker 1: can believe, if you can make people believe that a 71 00:05:05,057 --> 00:05:07,337 Speaker 1: man can become a woman, for example, this is part 72 00:05:07,377 --> 00:05:10,417 Speaker 1: of the mentacide chapter. You can make them believe that anything, 73 00:05:11,497 --> 00:05:15,497 Speaker 1: Because what could be a more fundamental reality than men 74 00:05:15,537 --> 00:05:17,577 Speaker 1: and women and men and women are different. What could 75 00:05:18,297 --> 00:05:22,337 Speaker 1: change that perception. That's why I think the left is 76 00:05:22,377 --> 00:05:26,497 Speaker 1: so set on this, because if they can convince you 77 00:05:26,577 --> 00:05:29,897 Speaker 1: of that, they have brought you to a place of 78 00:05:31,097 --> 00:05:36,097 Speaker 1: total intellectual subjugation. Right if you think that a you 79 00:05:36,137 --> 00:05:37,817 Speaker 1: can't tell afferency in a penis and a vagina, if 80 00:05:37,817 --> 00:05:39,177 Speaker 1: you can't tell a difference in a man and a woman, 81 00:05:39,217 --> 00:05:42,497 Speaker 1: if babies are assigned gender at birth, as they say, 82 00:05:42,497 --> 00:05:47,097 Speaker 1: all of this stuff, you know instinctly this is a lie. 83 00:05:47,337 --> 00:05:48,897 Speaker 1: But there are a lot of people in this country 84 00:05:48,937 --> 00:05:52,057 Speaker 1: who have come to believe this stuff, and in fact 85 00:05:52,057 --> 00:05:54,177 Speaker 1: they're willing to be violent. I mean, you look at 86 00:05:54,257 --> 00:05:58,577 Speaker 1: the assassin of Charlie Kirk, for example, did this on 87 00:05:58,697 --> 00:06:02,577 Speaker 1: behalf of trans rights and the sort of trans genocide 88 00:06:02,657 --> 00:06:06,297 Speaker 1: quote unquote that he believes is happening from people who 89 00:06:06,977 --> 00:06:10,537 Speaker 1: are you know, transphobic or whatever it may be. A 90 00:06:10,617 --> 00:06:15,417 Speaker 1: number of including the Comington School shooter, was another trans 91 00:06:15,497 --> 00:06:20,057 Speaker 1: individual who believed that the trans community was under assault. 92 00:06:20,617 --> 00:06:22,337 Speaker 1: I mean, even the notion of this as a community. 93 00:06:22,417 --> 00:06:26,777 Speaker 1: It's a it's a mental health issue. But there's very clear, 94 00:06:28,617 --> 00:06:31,777 Speaker 1: there's very clear support for this from the top, from 95 00:06:31,817 --> 00:06:34,857 Speaker 1: people who are using this as a form of of 96 00:06:34,937 --> 00:06:38,337 Speaker 1: mind control. And and they get it, and I get 97 00:06:38,377 --> 00:06:41,457 Speaker 1: into all the different versions of this. You know that 98 00:06:41,577 --> 00:06:48,977 Speaker 1: the Chinese, the Soviets cult leaders North Korea. You can 99 00:06:49,057 --> 00:06:52,777 Speaker 1: see how these massive they're really they are really cults 100 00:06:52,817 --> 00:06:58,097 Speaker 1: of personality enforced by the state, using massive force of 101 00:06:58,137 --> 00:07:02,777 Speaker 1: the state to assert control over people, not just physically, 102 00:07:02,857 --> 00:07:05,497 Speaker 1: but mentally. And that is the ultimate control. If you 103 00:07:05,537 --> 00:07:08,217 Speaker 1: can control people's minds, then everything else follows after that. 104 00:07:09,017 --> 00:07:11,057 Speaker 1: And that is really what power is. Power at some 105 00:07:11,217 --> 00:07:14,617 Speaker 1: level is also perception you have to make. You can't 106 00:07:14,657 --> 00:07:17,257 Speaker 1: have a secret police officer, although maybe with technology this 107 00:07:17,297 --> 00:07:20,897 Speaker 1: will change. You can't have a secret police officer in 108 00:07:20,937 --> 00:07:23,497 Speaker 1: every single home, watching every single move. But you can 109 00:07:23,577 --> 00:07:28,217 Speaker 1: convince people that there could be an informant, a neighbor, 110 00:07:28,337 --> 00:07:31,577 Speaker 1: a friend, a family member who is watching their every 111 00:07:31,617 --> 00:07:35,177 Speaker 1: move and can report it to the authorities, can report 112 00:07:35,217 --> 00:07:38,497 Speaker 1: it to big Brother, and then you have the kind 113 00:07:38,497 --> 00:07:41,057 Speaker 1: of compliance that totalitarians dream of. And this is a 114 00:07:41,097 --> 00:07:45,057 Speaker 1: psychological trick. This is a psychological form of control. So 115 00:07:45,937 --> 00:07:49,097 Speaker 1: this is all again what I'm getting into in the book. 116 00:07:49,977 --> 00:07:51,897 Speaker 1: If you like audiobooks, by the way, I did the 117 00:07:51,937 --> 00:07:56,217 Speaker 1: read for the audiobook myself, so please go get a 118 00:07:56,297 --> 00:08:00,777 Speaker 1: copy of it. And this is all I get into 119 00:08:00,857 --> 00:08:05,497 Speaker 1: cults in here. I get into weaponize law. I think 120 00:08:05,577 --> 00:08:08,857 Speaker 1: is a really particularly interesting chapter as well. That's really 121 00:08:08,857 --> 00:08:11,457 Speaker 1: my own formulation. Talk about that in a second. Our 122 00:08:11,497 --> 00:08:14,097 Speaker 1: sponsor here is Birch Gold. One of the better investments 123 00:08:14,137 --> 00:08:16,577 Speaker 1: I've made a long time is gold. This year alone, 124 00:08:16,577 --> 00:08:18,657 Speaker 1: it's up about fifty percent in value, and it shows 125 00:08:18,657 --> 00:08:21,537 Speaker 1: no signs of slowing. Given the instability and the lingering 126 00:08:21,577 --> 00:08:23,657 Speaker 1: inflation that we're contending with. The last time we saw 127 00:08:23,697 --> 00:08:25,697 Speaker 1: this kind of increase in the value of gold was 128 00:08:25,737 --> 00:08:29,017 Speaker 1: back in nineteen seventy nine. When there's instability in markets, 129 00:08:29,017 --> 00:08:31,617 Speaker 1: which we're seeing, when there's global uncertainty, when there's massive 130 00:08:31,617 --> 00:08:35,617 Speaker 1: money printing, gold does well. Central banks are flocking to gold. 131 00:08:35,657 --> 00:08:39,257 Speaker 1: I recommend you get in on gold for the long term. Two, 132 00:08:40,137 --> 00:08:42,577 Speaker 1: Birch Gold can help you get gold you can hold, 133 00:08:42,657 --> 00:08:44,097 Speaker 1: I mean just gold you keep at home, in a 134 00:08:44,137 --> 00:08:47,577 Speaker 1: vault or wherever, or you can get you can convert 135 00:08:47,577 --> 00:08:49,977 Speaker 1: with Birch Gold's help an IRA or four to one 136 00:08:50,057 --> 00:08:52,897 Speaker 1: K into a tech sheltered IRA in physical gold.

Text Buck to 141 00:09:04,177 --> 00:09:08,497 Speaker 1: ninety eight, ninety eight, ninety eight. Now I mentioned weaponized 142 00:09:08,537 --> 00:09:12,737 Speaker 1: law to me. The law also is this is really 143 00:09:12,777 --> 00:09:15,617 Speaker 1: a way that the state controls perception. I mean, you 144 00:09:15,697 --> 00:09:17,617 Speaker 1: know about things no one ever sat you down. You're 145 00:09:17,617 --> 00:09:19,177 Speaker 1: probably not maybe some of your lawyers, but a lot 146 00:09:19,217 --> 00:09:21,697 Speaker 1: of you aren't. Lawyers. No one ever taught you the law, 147 00:09:21,737 --> 00:09:23,817 Speaker 1: and yet you know what the law is and you're 148 00:09:23,857 --> 00:09:27,017 Speaker 1: held to account for the law. And so there's a 149 00:09:27,057 --> 00:09:30,057 Speaker 1: psychological component to that, like you know, oh, that will 150 00:09:30,057 --> 00:09:32,617 Speaker 1: be illegal. You know, oh, I can't do that. You 151 00:09:32,697 --> 00:09:36,097 Speaker 1: just pick this up over time. So our laws shape 152 00:09:36,617 --> 00:09:40,417 Speaker 1: our moral perceptions in a lot of ways. Our laws 153 00:09:40,497 --> 00:09:43,777 Speaker 1: shape our perception of the state and our relationship to it. 154 00:09:43,817 --> 00:09:47,217 Speaker 1: And a law that is abused for totalitarian purposes, a 155 00:09:47,297 --> 00:09:50,497 Speaker 1: law that is abused from mind control is also very 156 00:09:51,417 --> 00:09:55,417 Speaker 1: very potent and very very damaging. And that's something that 157 00:09:55,977 --> 00:09:58,017 Speaker 1: you see even in places like I talk about this 158 00:09:58,057 --> 00:10:02,497 Speaker 1: in the book. In Nazi Germany, they were very intent 159 00:10:03,337 --> 00:10:08,657 Speaker 1: on using the law for their evil purposes. They didn't 160 00:10:08,737 --> 00:10:11,617 Speaker 1: just say, oh, you know, Hitler is the dictator, he 161 00:10:11,657 --> 00:10:14,657 Speaker 1: does whatever he wants and that's no, no, no. They they 162 00:10:14,777 --> 00:10:17,217 Speaker 1: had laws that were put in place. They would say 163 00:10:17,257 --> 00:10:20,377 Speaker 1: this is now. You know a lot of people and 164 00:10:20,417 --> 00:10:22,617 Speaker 1: the Soviets had a constitution that was a joke. A 165 00:10:22,657 --> 00:10:26,937 Speaker 1: lot of this is just for public dissemination. It's not 166 00:10:27,097 --> 00:10:29,417 Speaker 1: meant to be. It is not meant in good faith 167 00:10:29,417 --> 00:10:32,817 Speaker 1: at all, of course, but they even set up special 168 00:10:32,897 --> 00:10:38,057 Speaker 1: courts in Nazi Germany to deal with people who were 169 00:10:38,137 --> 00:10:42,657 Speaker 1: considered essentially subversives. So they created legal Now they could 170 00:10:42,657 --> 00:10:44,177 Speaker 1: have just sent them to camps and executeing them, but 171 00:10:44,177 --> 00:10:48,177 Speaker 1: they created legal process. And it's because they wanted people 172 00:10:48,537 --> 00:10:50,897 Speaker 1: who were supportive of the regime to have the belief 173 00:10:50,937 --> 00:10:54,737 Speaker 1: that there was some process here, that there was some 174 00:10:54,857 --> 00:10:58,337 Speaker 1: legality to the heinous things that they were doing.

So 179 00:11:09,017 --> 00:11:11,137 Speaker 1: weaponize laws chapter in the book, which I think you'll 180 00:11:11,137 --> 00:11:15,057 Speaker 1: find particularly interesting.
