WEBVTT - Love Affair With Autocracy

0:00:11.720 --> 0:00:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with

0:00:14.840 --> 0:00:19.799
<v Speaker 1>Meet your Girl Daniel Moody, recording from the Home Bunker. Folks,

0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:24.599
<v Speaker 1>Happy fuck It Friday. We have made it, and I

0:00:24.680 --> 0:00:29.400
<v Speaker 1>am so ecstatic about weekend ahead. I tell you this

0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:32.080
<v Speaker 1>at the end of each and every goddamn week that

0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:35.200
<v Speaker 1>I am exhausted, as I know that many of you are.

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:40.640
<v Speaker 1>The news although has not been all that. There have

0:00:40.760 --> 0:00:45.320
<v Speaker 1>been some catastrophic points, of course, because of our new healthscape,

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:49.800
<v Speaker 1>but there have also been some high points, both of which,

0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>funny enough, are coming out of Florida. So before I

0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:56.640
<v Speaker 1>get into my round of buckets, I actually do want

0:00:56.720 --> 0:01:00.880
<v Speaker 1>to say that what I believe is happening right when

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 1>you see that there is now a new mayor, Donna Degan,

0:01:07.920 --> 0:01:12.480
<v Speaker 1>who was elected mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, which who the

0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:16.959
<v Speaker 1>hell knew is the most populous city in Florida. I

0:01:17.000 --> 0:01:22.280
<v Speaker 1>thought it was Miami, totally wrong. She was outspent by

0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>Republican rival Daniel Davis, who was head of the Chamber

0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:31.480
<v Speaker 1>of Commerce. She's outspent like by four points, like four

0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:35.040
<v Speaker 1>to one, and she won. She's going to be the

0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 1>first Democratic mayor of Jacksonville. And I also believe the

0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:43.360
<v Speaker 1>first woman ever like in the history of this city.

0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>And so what is this signal for the Republican Party

0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:54.320
<v Speaker 1>for America? Because political scientists have referred to this city

0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 1>as being quote unquote ruby read right, meaning that it

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:03.640
<v Speaker 1>has been on impenetrable by the Democratic Party. And the

0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:08.800
<v Speaker 1>fact is Daniel Davis was backed by Ron DeSantis and

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:15.920
<v Speaker 1>guess what, he fucking failed. So maybe this is a signal,

0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Maybe this is a canary in the coal mine to

0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:24.200
<v Speaker 1>warn us that if we actually run on the issues

0:02:24.200 --> 0:02:27.320
<v Speaker 1>instead of away from them, if we talk about things

0:02:27.480 --> 0:02:33.800
<v Speaker 1>like democracy and freedom and liberty, if we reclaim these

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:39.240
<v Speaker 1>words that we have ceded to the Republican Party, that maybe,

0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:43.360
<v Speaker 1>just maybe Democrats can make in roads. You see, I

0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 1>have often said, and you all know this who listened

0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:49.480
<v Speaker 1>to this show, that sometimes I get into my moods

0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:52.720
<v Speaker 1>where I'm like, fuck those Red States. I don't want

0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:57.440
<v Speaker 1>anything to do with them, Fuck their super majority Republican nature,

0:02:57.600 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 1>fuck their bands on books and abortion and drag shows

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 1>and trans people's existence. Don't patronize there whatever. But the

0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:07.920
<v Speaker 1>reality is I have to remember, and this is my

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:11.400
<v Speaker 1>reminder to myself as well as a reminder to all

0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>of you that, guess what, there are people Democrats who

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>are on the ground in these places that are doing

0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the hard fucking work, that are actually making the inroads,

0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 1>that are reaching people where they are, and that are

0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:31.560
<v Speaker 1>not tossing up their hands and giving up on this

0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:35.680
<v Speaker 1>city and state where they live. There are only a

0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:40.120
<v Speaker 1>handful of people that have the economic capability to be

0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:44.880
<v Speaker 1>able to leave their states, right to go ahead and

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 1>flee and literally become refugees right of draconian policies, that

0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:54.040
<v Speaker 1>are putting their lives in the lives of their loved

0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:57.760
<v Speaker 1>ones on the line. But for the majority of people,

0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:01.960
<v Speaker 1>picking up your entire life, what you've ever known and

0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:04.680
<v Speaker 1>being able to move across state lines or across the

0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:07.480
<v Speaker 1>country or out of the country is out of the

0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:11.000
<v Speaker 1>realm of possibility. So what then do we do. Do

0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:13.839
<v Speaker 1>we just give up on whole states, whole cities, whole

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:17.000
<v Speaker 1>town do we give up on people? And this is

0:04:17.040 --> 0:04:23.080
<v Speaker 1>a reminder, with this win from Donna Deagan down in Jacksonville, Florida,

0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 1>that you have to find a way to make a

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:31.760
<v Speaker 1>way out of no way, because what the Republican Party

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:35.600
<v Speaker 1>wants us all to believe is that we are hopeless,

0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:38.839
<v Speaker 1>We have no power. They have the will, They have

0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 1>the gabble in the Supreme Court and everywhere else that

0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:46.240
<v Speaker 1>they and them alone are going to determine who America

0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:49.640
<v Speaker 1>is and what our future looks like. And in this moment,

0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:53.240
<v Speaker 1>I am telling you they are waking up people, this

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:58.360
<v Speaker 1>Republican Party and their anti democratic ways and their love

0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:02.800
<v Speaker 1>affair with autocracy. They are are waking up generations of

0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:06.599
<v Speaker 1>people that have been asleep, or the younger generation that

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.840
<v Speaker 1>is saying, I'm not gonna inherit this shit pile that

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.000
<v Speaker 1>you are trying to give me and tell me that

0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:14.520
<v Speaker 1>it's my lot in life to carry and live inside

0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:19.000
<v Speaker 1>up they are saying no. And so just when we feel,

0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:23.680
<v Speaker 1>folks like we are being pushed to our breaking point,

0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:28.760
<v Speaker 1>there are spots, whether it be here right in the

0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:33.760
<v Speaker 1>area of Jacksonville, whether it be in I believe it

0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 1>was Colorado Springs. If I'm not mistaken, Yes, I am right.

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Who just elected Yemmy Mobola Laid to become the next

0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>mayor of Colorado Springs. He is a Nigerian immigrant and

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 1>has lived in Colorado Springs. This is the first elected

0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:04.240
<v Speaker 1>black mayor ever. Mobil Aid is of Colorado Springs, and

0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:08.679
<v Speaker 1>so what we are seeing by the way Colorado gave

0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:14.160
<v Speaker 1>us Lauren Bobert just saying, we are seeing people make

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:17.560
<v Speaker 1>a way out of no way, people turn the impossible

0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 1>into possibilities. And I want us to go into this

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:25.160
<v Speaker 1>fucked Friday not just wanting to, you know, raise a

0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 1>glass and rage and scream, which trust me, I am

0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:31.839
<v Speaker 1>always fine to do, but we also have to reflect

0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:35.440
<v Speaker 1>on winds. When winds are made, we also have to

0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:40.400
<v Speaker 1>understand that inroads are being made in these ruby red places,

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:44.800
<v Speaker 1>these places that are still experiencing their first black person,

0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:47.680
<v Speaker 1>their first person of color, their first woman, their first

0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:52.520
<v Speaker 1>queer person taking over the reins of electoral politics. And

0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:55.200
<v Speaker 1>that is something that I want us to be able

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:59.920
<v Speaker 1>to celebrate on this Friday because it is im poort

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:03.640
<v Speaker 1>and it is an important signal for us to see

0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 1>as we move into this twenty twenty four election cycle.

0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:13.560
<v Speaker 1>That was the good news. I'm stretching and I am

0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:18.200
<v Speaker 1>ready for the series series of people that I am

0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:21.720
<v Speaker 1>saying fucking to on this Friday. And as always, dear friends,

0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:25.720
<v Speaker 1>if you are a patron, dm me or comment under

0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>this and tell me who you are saying fucke to

0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 1>hit me up in Twitter. I'm still there at D

0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:34.040
<v Speaker 1>two cents and tell me who you are saying fucking

0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 1>to at D two cents D E E two ce

0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:41.040
<v Speaker 1>ce and TF you think I can spell? It's been

0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:44.040
<v Speaker 1>a long week and it's the same on Instagram. So

0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:49.680
<v Speaker 1>let me start off with one of my favorite fucket people,

0:07:49.840 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 1>the person I love to say fuck it to the most,

0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:54.800
<v Speaker 1>and actually there's a tie this week, but we'll start

0:07:54.840 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 1>there anyway, which is Marjorie Taylor fucking Green. So this

0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:08.800
<v Speaker 1>fool has found herself holding a press conference right where

0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:14.440
<v Speaker 1>she is introducing impeachment articles for Representative Jamal Bowman, who

0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:17.560
<v Speaker 1>is a representative from New York. He has been on

0:08:17.600 --> 0:08:21.480
<v Speaker 1>this program and was on when he would had just

0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:25.840
<v Speaker 1>won his seat. And let me tell you this, Marsherie

0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:33.280
<v Speaker 1>Taylor Green ain't nothing but alling, grifting lover QAnon, listening

0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:39.600
<v Speaker 1>to white supremacist child harasser piece of crap that I

0:08:39.679 --> 0:08:43.880
<v Speaker 1>have ever seen. The fact that Marjorie Taylor Green is

0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:49.319
<v Speaker 1>a representative of Congress should be an embarrassment to everyone

0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:54.960
<v Speaker 1>in Congress, right, that should actually be a bipartisan thought,

0:08:55.640 --> 0:09:01.000
<v Speaker 1>because this woman had the audacity right to hold a

0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:05.600
<v Speaker 1>press event after her and Representative Jamal Bowman had to

0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:09.800
<v Speaker 1>back and forth out on Capitol Hill, and they had

0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:12.719
<v Speaker 1>a back and forth because which was videotape and has

0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:16.840
<v Speaker 1>been shared around the place, because Jamal Bowman is not

0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:21.319
<v Speaker 1>taking the bullshit anymore and is not going to allow

0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:26.240
<v Speaker 1>his Republican colleagues to continue to ruin the lives of

0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:32.760
<v Speaker 1>American people, to push anti democratic pieces of legislation, to

0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:37.240
<v Speaker 1>hold people in Congress who should in fact be expelled.

0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:41.160
<v Speaker 1>Looking at you, George Santos, and so in this exchange,

0:09:41.320 --> 0:09:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Jamal Bowman is saying to her, save the country, save

0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:50.480
<v Speaker 1>your party, do what's right, pass right sensible gun reform,

0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:54.440
<v Speaker 1>do what's right, Expel George Santos from office. And they're

0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:58.760
<v Speaker 1>having this big back and forth. Never once does Jamal

0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Bowman in circle her as she had said, There was

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:08.280
<v Speaker 1>no quote unquote mob, there was no touching, there was

0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:14.200
<v Speaker 1>no breach of personal space except by Marjorie Taylor Green,

0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:19.080
<v Speaker 1>who had her hand in Jamal Bowman's face the entire time.

0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.440
<v Speaker 1>She took to her presser to say that she felt

0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:27.440
<v Speaker 1>that his physical appearance was quote unquote aggressive and that

0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:31.560
<v Speaker 1>she felt scared and threatened let me pause and ask

0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:36.880
<v Speaker 1>you where have you all heard that phrase before? Maybe

0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:39.679
<v Speaker 1>it comes out of the mouth of every single white

0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:44.280
<v Speaker 1>police officer that uses excessive force and police brutality to

0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:48.920
<v Speaker 1>either kill and on our black person or to severely

0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:54.280
<v Speaker 1>harm them. Right, maybe you've heard it, you know, offered

0:10:54.480 --> 0:11:01.440
<v Speaker 1>up by the woman who most recently died who I

0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:05.640
<v Speaker 1>will tell you Emmett Till's case, And that's where I'm going.

0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:07.680
<v Speaker 1>I want to make sure that I get her name

0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:13.000
<v Speaker 1>right because it is very important for me to express

0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:16.280
<v Speaker 1>this woman, because I want people to remember her. She

0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:20.440
<v Speaker 1>got to live a long life. So Carolyn Bryant Donnam,

0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:27.760
<v Speaker 1>Carolyn Bryant Donnam was the white woman who lied about

0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Emmett Till whistling at her right and threatened and taken

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:39.440
<v Speaker 1>aback and scared, She went home and goes and spread

0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:43.560
<v Speaker 1>this lie. And then Emmett Till is beaten to death,

0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:48.280
<v Speaker 1>lynched and tortured, and his murder because of his mother.

0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Sharing the brutality of what white supremacy and violence does

0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:58.480
<v Speaker 1>two black bodies was one of the sparks of the

0:11:58.520 --> 0:12:02.720
<v Speaker 1>civil rights movement. So I say that Marjorie Taylor Green's lie,

0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:09.600
<v Speaker 1>which was thankfully vindicated by multiple angles and video that

0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:13.720
<v Speaker 1>show that she is a fucking liar with regard to

0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 1>feeling threatened by Jamal Bowman falls in line of a

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:22.800
<v Speaker 1>whole host of white women that have used that very

0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:31.079
<v Speaker 1>same fucking dangerous lie right to harm black people knowingly.

0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:33.480
<v Speaker 1>So right, it's not like, oh, I say this and

0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:37.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what's gonna happen. You fucking know exactly

0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:39.840
<v Speaker 1>what is gonna happen, and then you want to feign

0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:45.800
<v Speaker 1>right innocence, which is what hundreds of white women, if

0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:48.360
<v Speaker 1>not thousands of white women, have been able to do

0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:54.000
<v Speaker 1>as they enable white supremacy and patriarchy in this country

0:12:54.120 --> 0:13:00.199
<v Speaker 1>and continue to do so. I was just so fucking

0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:05.520
<v Speaker 1>taken aback because I said to myself, sir, not this

0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Marjorie Taylor Green saying that she feels threatened. Not the

0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:17.880
<v Speaker 1>Marjorie Taylor Green that ran around the Capitol building before

0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:24.080
<v Speaker 1>she was an elected official, harassing then teenager child David

0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:30.319
<v Speaker 1>Hogg who had just experienced a school shooting where he

0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>watched his friends and his teachers be gunned down. Right,

0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Not that same woman who was feeling threatened that then

0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:45.240
<v Speaker 1>told that same young man that she's following him around,

0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:47.760
<v Speaker 1>that she had a gun in her purse. Not the

0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:51.200
<v Speaker 1>same Marjorie Taylor Green saying that she feels threatened that

0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:55.760
<v Speaker 1>has had restraining orders placed against her from her repres

0:13:55.760 --> 0:14:00.640
<v Speaker 1>of her colleagues because she has been finding herself harassing

0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:06.040
<v Speaker 1>them and following them around the capitol and into elevators. Right,

0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:12.359
<v Speaker 1>Not that same woman, So miss me with your fucking bullshit,

0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Marjorie Taylor Green and using the same tropes and the

0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:21.160
<v Speaker 1>same fucking stereotypes about black men and about black people

0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:27.920
<v Speaker 1>that have found us meeting early, early deaths at the

0:14:28.000 --> 0:14:32.720
<v Speaker 1>hands of white supremacts like you. And also, also, let

0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:37.440
<v Speaker 1>me double down and say this that Marjorie Taylor Green

0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:43.280
<v Speaker 1>said she takes great offense to being called a white supremacist,

0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:47.000
<v Speaker 1>and that to her being referred to as a white supremacist,

0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:51.160
<v Speaker 1>as Jamal Bowman rightfully did, is akin to being called

0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:55.560
<v Speaker 1>the N word, which should never be done. Bitch, miss

0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:58.920
<v Speaker 1>me with your fucking lies, because I'm pretty sure that

0:14:58.960 --> 0:15:01.480
<v Speaker 1>has come out of your mouth as you shake hands

0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:05.520
<v Speaker 1>with and share stage with pronounced white supremacts who are

0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:08.040
<v Speaker 1>not afraid to say that they use the N word,

0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:12.240
<v Speaker 1>right that, Let me tell you something. You probably have

0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:15.840
<v Speaker 1>songs that you sing right when you think that you

0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:19.320
<v Speaker 1>are all alone, just drippin in the N word. There

0:15:19.440 --> 0:15:23.280
<v Speaker 1>is no equivalence because if it walks like a white supremacist,

0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:27.440
<v Speaker 1>talks like a white supremacist, and legislates like a white supremacist,

0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:32.000
<v Speaker 1>it's a white supremacist and that is you. Okay. So

0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:35.800
<v Speaker 1>that is my first fucket on this fucked Friday. Fuck

0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:38.840
<v Speaker 1>it to Marjorie Taylor Green. You are a fucking embarrassment

0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:43.040
<v Speaker 1>and Republicans should be embarrassed, but only people with shame

0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:49.920
<v Speaker 1>can be embarrassed. Coming up next on my list of

0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:54.640
<v Speaker 1>fuckets is oh oh my, my, my, my, my my

0:15:55.960 --> 0:16:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Elon Musk, Elan, and you will probably say to yourself, well,

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.440
<v Speaker 1>which which thing do you want to say? Fuck it

0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:07.920
<v Speaker 1>to Danielle, because when it comes to Elon Musk, there

0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:12.400
<v Speaker 1>are just so many fucking choices. Well. Elon Musk found

0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:17.960
<v Speaker 1>himself most recently sitting down in an interview with CNBC's

0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:23.920
<v Speaker 1>David Faber, and in this interview, Elon Musk said that

0:16:24.160 --> 0:16:31.600
<v Speaker 1>quote working from home is morally wrong. I'm sorry what

0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:37.480
<v Speaker 1>having the ability to be able to do your job

0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:39.840
<v Speaker 1>from home is morally wrong? And get this, He says,

0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:42.800
<v Speaker 1>it's because service workers still have to show up. Do

0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:48.560
<v Speaker 1>you know what's morally wrong being a greedy, fucking multi

0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:52.760
<v Speaker 1>billionaire that has made their fortune on the backs of

0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:56.280
<v Speaker 1>black and brown people? Why do I say that? Oh?

0:16:56.360 --> 0:17:02.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Because Elon Musk's family owned Emerald Minds

0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:05.520
<v Speaker 1>in South Africa. Who do you think was doing the

0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:10.119
<v Speaker 1>mining of those gems that Elon Musk was known to

0:17:10.240 --> 0:17:14.919
<v Speaker 1>carry around in his pockets. I'm certain right that you

0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:18.879
<v Speaker 1>would just call those black folks that did that work

0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:22.880
<v Speaker 1>in those minds is just you know, unpaid labor. Right,

0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Maybe I would call them enslaved. Maybe I would call

0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:31.240
<v Speaker 1>them beaten down and oppressed and probably paid pennies on

0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:35.200
<v Speaker 1>the dollar, so that those would be your initial investments

0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:39.720
<v Speaker 1>into the steps and the hierarchy of becoming a billionaire. Right,

0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:45.280
<v Speaker 1>don't talk to us, don't lecture the public from your

0:17:45.359 --> 0:17:49.280
<v Speaker 1>fucking throne about what it means to be morally wrong.

0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:54.119
<v Speaker 1>The racial wealth gap in this country is morally wrong.

0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:58.520
<v Speaker 1>The class gap in this country, the economic gap of

0:17:58.600 --> 0:18:02.560
<v Speaker 1>the haves and the have is morally fucking wrong. The

0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:08.399
<v Speaker 1>fact that you could be a billionaire with hundreds of

0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:12.360
<v Speaker 1>billions of dollars to your name, while there are people

0:18:12.640 --> 0:18:16.480
<v Speaker 1>that are literally begging for food and shelter on a

0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:20.199
<v Speaker 1>subway and then get choked out because of it is

0:18:20.320 --> 0:18:26.879
<v Speaker 1>morally fucking wrong. Do not lecture us Elon Musk, a

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:28.960
<v Speaker 1>man who, by the way, is at the helm of

0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I believe three different companies stepping down from Twitter, because

0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:35.280
<v Speaker 1>you should have never been there in the fucking first place.

0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:38.560
<v Speaker 1>If Congress had labeled it as a public utility, then

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:41.160
<v Speaker 1>you wouldn't have been able to destroy the global town

0:18:41.240 --> 0:18:44.359
<v Speaker 1>square in the way that you have. I digress, but

0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:48.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, sir. Do you find yourself in all three

0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:52.280
<v Speaker 1>of those office buildings at the same fucking time or

0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:56.119
<v Speaker 1>are you remote working so that you can manage them? But? Ohways,

0:18:56.160 --> 0:18:59.760
<v Speaker 1>only remote work for the ultra wealthy, while the peasants

0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:01.919
<v Speaker 1>are forced to go into work. Because you see, the

0:19:01.960 --> 0:19:05.639
<v Speaker 1>thing that we recognize during the horrific pandemic that we

0:19:05.680 --> 0:19:09.600
<v Speaker 1>have all been traumatized from and still don't discuss, is

0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:16.160
<v Speaker 1>that society didn't collapse because people were forced to work

0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:21.760
<v Speaker 1>from home during a global health pandemic. Capitalism didn't crumble

0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:27.240
<v Speaker 1>because people had the ability to what tend to their children,

0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:33.200
<v Speaker 1>cook dinner, do laundry, get outdoors and live outside of

0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:39.320
<v Speaker 1>a cubicle. No, the world pressed on, so you are

0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:43.720
<v Speaker 1>just full as shit. And please, fucking mainstream media, can

0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:47.400
<v Speaker 1>we stop asking the ultra wealthy about what they think

0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:50.840
<v Speaker 1>that the rest of us should be doing. Please let

0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:54.280
<v Speaker 1>us stop doing that. Let me stop asking the ultra

0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:58.360
<v Speaker 1>wealthy that we're born with silver and platinum fucking spoons

0:19:58.400 --> 0:20:01.240
<v Speaker 1>in their mouth. What the rest of us who are

0:20:01.400 --> 0:20:05.920
<v Speaker 1>actually working from the ground up to build a life

0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:09.399
<v Speaker 1>of dignity and respect and to be able to live

0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:14.440
<v Speaker 1>some sort some version of the American dream. Let's stop

0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:18.920
<v Speaker 1>using these people who are so fucking greedy as our

0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:23.119
<v Speaker 1>models for success and morality. I do not need a

0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:28.520
<v Speaker 1>lecture or a lesson on morality from Elon fucking Musk.

0:20:29.920 --> 0:20:34.040
<v Speaker 1>So for that, on this good, good Friday, I say

0:20:34.400 --> 0:20:40.840
<v Speaker 1>fuck it to Elon Musk and rounding up my week

0:20:41.520 --> 0:20:44.399
<v Speaker 1>of fuck it and folks, there are just so many

0:20:44.440 --> 0:20:47.679
<v Speaker 1>people in so many ways and so many things. But

0:20:47.840 --> 0:20:53.360
<v Speaker 1>top of mind again is Chris Licked, the CEO of CNN,

0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:58.159
<v Speaker 1>who most recently in a Variety article said that it

0:20:58.280 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 1>is important, it is necessary to showcase both sides of

0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:08.119
<v Speaker 1>an issue, and I got to tell you that Chris

0:21:08.160 --> 0:21:12.159
<v Speaker 1>Lickt one is just straightly full of shit, which we

0:21:12.600 --> 0:21:18.440
<v Speaker 1>all know, right that Chris lickt doesn't care about news.

0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:23.840
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't care about Oh, I don't know what is

0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:31.440
<v Speaker 1>that thing democracy? He doesn't care about creating an educated citizen. Try.

0:21:32.080 --> 0:21:36.200
<v Speaker 1>He cares about money, right, Like that's what he cares about.

0:21:36.240 --> 0:21:42.760
<v Speaker 1>And so when he says these things and Medi Hassan,

0:21:43.000 --> 0:21:46.879
<v Speaker 1>I was trying to find the tweet that he sent out,

0:21:46.960 --> 0:21:52.840
<v Speaker 1>which I thought was just so good because he was like,

0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:56.280
<v Speaker 1>so we need to show both sides of every issue.

0:21:56.400 --> 0:22:01.480
<v Speaker 1>So election deniers, they should be given a platform. Those

0:22:01.520 --> 0:22:05.240
<v Speaker 1>that are against democracy, they should be given a platform.

0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:09.960
<v Speaker 1>Climate deniers should be given a platform. Anti semits then

0:22:10.080 --> 0:22:13.399
<v Speaker 1>should be given a platform. Clearly, we give platforms to

0:22:13.480 --> 0:22:16.760
<v Speaker 1>transphobes because we don't actually give a fuck about trans

0:22:16.840 --> 0:22:22.640
<v Speaker 1>people in this country. So every issue, dear Chris lick

0:22:22.960 --> 0:22:28.200
<v Speaker 1>does not deserve both sides, right. But I see that

0:22:28.240 --> 0:22:32.800
<v Speaker 1>you are chasing that Fox viewer and the place that

0:22:32.840 --> 0:22:36.399
<v Speaker 1>it got you two days following Donald Trump's town hall,

0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:39.879
<v Speaker 1>which didn't bring in the big, big numbers in the

0:22:39.960 --> 0:22:42.600
<v Speaker 1>four and five million that you were hoping for to

0:22:42.640 --> 0:22:46.640
<v Speaker 1>be able to ride in that twenty sixteen numbers and ratings.

0:22:46.680 --> 0:22:49.680
<v Speaker 1>Again it fell flat. And not only did it fall

0:22:49.760 --> 0:22:52.520
<v Speaker 1>flat on that night, and you were highly ridiculed, which

0:22:52.560 --> 0:22:54.960
<v Speaker 1>is why you were on an apology tour right now,

0:22:55.600 --> 0:23:01.640
<v Speaker 1>but your numbers fell even further. You were rivaling Newsmax

0:23:02.280 --> 0:23:06.600
<v Speaker 1>that following Friday after your town hall with Donald Trump.

0:23:06.640 --> 0:23:11.440
<v Speaker 1>And just so you know, your promotion of Caitlin Collins,

0:23:11.480 --> 0:23:16.600
<v Speaker 1>who I just became hit to, who got her start

0:23:16.800 --> 0:23:22.160
<v Speaker 1>as an entertainment correspondent for the right wing fascist white

0:23:22.200 --> 0:23:26.000
<v Speaker 1>supremacist network The Daily Caller, is also not going to

0:23:26.080 --> 0:23:29.600
<v Speaker 1>be your claim to fame. I believe in boycotts. I

0:23:29.640 --> 0:23:32.919
<v Speaker 1>am boycotting CNN. I will not put that program on

0:23:33.040 --> 0:23:35.800
<v Speaker 1>in my house, on my phone, on my computer. Fuck

0:23:35.880 --> 0:23:40.520
<v Speaker 1>them in all honesty, because I'm not going to contribute

0:23:40.880 --> 0:23:45.440
<v Speaker 1>to the mainstreaming of white supremacy, which my co host

0:23:45.520 --> 0:23:48.639
<v Speaker 1>on Democracy is Waha hot Ali and I get into

0:23:49.000 --> 0:23:52.320
<v Speaker 1>this week as well, so you should check out that episode.

0:23:52.680 --> 0:23:57.640
<v Speaker 1>But boy, oh boy, from Marjorie Taylor Green to Elon

0:23:57.800 --> 0:24:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Musk to Chris Alick, white supremacy knows no bounds this week,

0:24:02.520 --> 0:24:05.520
<v Speaker 1>right the fuckery knows no bounds. But I will tell

0:24:05.560 --> 0:24:10.080
<v Speaker 1>you that I started out the show with good news

0:24:10.119 --> 0:24:11.840
<v Speaker 1>and I got to say and I want to end

0:24:11.880 --> 0:24:15.920
<v Speaker 1>it that way today, which is that people are more

0:24:16.000 --> 0:24:20.760
<v Speaker 1>woke than ever before. Right the decision this week by

0:24:20.760 --> 0:24:27.359
<v Speaker 1>the North Carolina Republican supermajority to override the democratically elected

0:24:27.400 --> 0:24:32.600
<v Speaker 1>governors veto on their abortion ban, you might have just

0:24:32.680 --> 0:24:38.119
<v Speaker 1>helped turn North Carolina blue. So pay attention to what

0:24:38.280 --> 0:24:42.080
<v Speaker 1>is happening in these little pockets and corners of the

0:24:42.119 --> 0:24:48.400
<v Speaker 1>country where the electorate is fighting back one vote, one

0:24:48.440 --> 0:24:57.280
<v Speaker 1>election at a time. You've been put on notice. That

0:24:57.480 --> 0:25:00.480
<v Speaker 1>is it for me today, dear friends on Woke, A

0:25:00.480 --> 0:25:04.120
<v Speaker 1>app as always power to the people and to all

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:11.679
<v Speaker 1>of the people. Power, get woke and stay woke as fuck. Mhm.
