Speaker 1 (00:02):
A lot of them, fundamental principles of dat cells and
an individual loss. M this is the show. Oh right,
everybody walk up there on book show on this Wednesday,

(00:25):
December third. Everybody's having a great week, and uh, Christmas
just inches forward. Yeah. As as I've said many times,
this is a great time of year, time of year
to plan for the future, think about where we're heading,

(00:45):
and and uh yeah and kind of, uh relax a
little bit, you know, just just relax a little bit,
but not a heal on the own book show. We
don't relax. We do a show every single day. Uh
and uh we're keeping at it all right. Uh Thomas,
I see says I saw opera and had to show up.

(01:09):
Probably not what you thought, right, it's the topic. Just
I don't want to waste your time. But it's about
the disruption of the opera in New York last week
or whenever it was where they they stormed onto the
stage of Common as Common was being performed. So anyway,

(01:30):
I was going to talk about that, right, Uh so, no,
no deep thoughts about Upper CoA opera politicize politicizing opera.
All right, Let's start with you know, yesterday Donald Trump,
President Trump I went on this rant, I mean rants

(01:52):
about Somali's how horrible they are, horrible the place they
come from, how they cannot assimilate to the United States,
how we would like to get rid of all of them,
and they don't belong here, and they need to go.
And indeed, today we got new immigration regulations that basically
bands Somalis from coming to the country, kind of an

(02:16):
expansion of the of what was already in place in
terms of Muslims. There's thirteen additional countries that have now
been added to the list of people we do not
walk come here because they cannot assimilate and they're bad
for the country, and they might be terrorists, and they
might be bad people and all of that. I still
don't see Saudi Arabia on that list, Okata, and I

(02:37):
don't ever expect to see that list. Or Syria. Many
Syrians are causing significant problems in Europe, but Syria and
the Trump administration on best terms right now, they are very,
very very friendly. Anyway, the whole Somali thing has come

(02:59):
out about because of a story in the City Journal
that was published by Chris Ruffo. It's, you know, basically
laying out this case that where Somali Americans in large
numbers have been have committed massive fraud in the state

(03:22):
of Minnesota in Minneapolis. Minneapolis is the city that has
attracted Somalis. I mean, because it's so similar to Somalia.
Weather's almost the same. I'm kidding. I mean, God, they
will go for the desert to Minnesota. That has to
be traumatic, just that very fact, so cold there. But

(03:47):
this case massive fraud in Minnesota, a lot of Somalis
part of this part of this case. There are eighty
thousand Somalis in Minnesota and they now were and a
significant kind of voting block. Of course, we have a
Somali Member of Congress from Minnesota representing them. But it's

(04:09):
a you know, it's a it's a significant enough portion
of the Minneapolis population that they are a significant voting block.
And and uh, this plays into the story anyway. Chris
Ruffo put out the story long article whose conclusion is basically,
it looks so always can't assimilate, uh, and we need

(04:32):
to really think about whether they should be here and
and kind of the standard kind of right wing argument
and you know who'se Poufle compares them to the Norwegians,
and the Norwegians assimilated and they brought West. You know,
Western values and Somli values are so different, it's really

(04:52):
not surprising that they committed all this fraud. So let's
go through the fraud case a little bit, because I
think it's an illustri of a number of different things. So,
you know, for prosecutors, now, I've charged dozens of people
with defrauding Minnesota social programs. So these are all various

(05:14):
types of welfare programs since twenty twenty, twenty twenty. What
happened in twenty twenty, Ah, yes, COVID, So since COVID,
since all those new social programs will created around COVID,
and slush funds were created and huge amounts of money
were distributed. Many of the people that have been prosecuted

(05:40):
are being prosecuted or have been charged off from the
Somali American community in Minneapolis. So you know, we're talking
about programs like Feeding Up Future Right, which was founded
in twenty sixteen to sponsored daycares and after school programs

(06:02):
to enroll in the federal child nutrition program. It received
three point four million dollars in federal funding in its
first year, However, during the pandemic, this program went suddenly
to two hundred million dollars of funding in twenty twenty one.

(06:24):
Since then, more than seventy seven zero defendants have been charged.
We're stealing over two hundred and fifty million dollars in
nutrition funds now to the prosecutors, generally, to the government's credit.
Did I just say that, to the government's credit. I mean,

(06:47):
they've caught this pretty quickly, right, So this farud happened
twenty one, twenty two to twenty three, and you know
this this they saw this jump to two hundred million,
and they investigated and the they're prosecuting. So again to
the government's credit. And this will be the last time
we give the government of any credit on this issue.

(07:08):
At least they've acted what seems to be fairly quickly
on this fraud case. It's not something that's been happening
for decades and so on, so they've acted on it.
Two hundred and fifty million from one program was stolen.

(07:31):
That's just unbelievable that anybody could think they could get
away with it. They obviously haven't got away with it.
Another program, the Minnesota Medicaid Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services Program
GOD Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services Program of the State of Minnesota,

(07:52):
which was launched in twenty twenty to help seniors addicts
and disabled and they're mentally ill secure housing, was predicted
a customer win six million dollars annually. Instead, payouts reached
twenty one million in twenty twenty one rose one hundred
and four million in twenty twenty four. There's a red
flag for you. Federal prosecutors have been investigating the program

(08:15):
and two suspects have pled guilty to fraud as of November.
On top of that, the state's Early Intensive Development and
Behavior Intervention ARTISM program GOD that's a long, that's a mouthful.
Early Intervention Development and Behavioral Program ARTISM program for potent

(08:39):
is also on the investigation for potential fraud. In September,
the US Attorney announced its first charges as part of this, one,
accusing a defendant of filing false support therapy services and
defrauding the program of about fourteen million dollars. So the
big fraud was committed on the nutrition program, then on

(09:00):
the on the housing program, and then on the autism program. Yeah,
and one of them, uh, one of the claims that
Rufo makes in uh. I guess Rufo and he had

(09:23):
a co author anyway, I can't find the cuthor name.
One of the claims Rufo makes in the City Journal
article is that a lot of this money, a lot
of this money found its way back to Somalia and
was actually used to fund the the slammest terrorist group,

(09:46):
Al Schabab, which is affiliated with ISIS and with al
Qaeda and so on. But just so clear, as far
as anybody can tell, so far, no proof, no will
evidence was presented except some speculation by some other people
investigating this. We still don't know where all the money

(10:08):
actually actually went anyway. As a consequence of this, as
we said, Trump yesterday announced the termination of temporary legal
protections for Somali immigrants living in Minnesota and denial of
new immigrants from Somalia into the country and is generally

(10:29):
you know, denigrated immigrants from Somalia and made some pretty
awful comments about them. Now you know, the fraud has happened.
There's no doubt this has happened, and seventy eight people
have been I think seventy eight people have been what
do you call it to charge? So far it seems

(10:51):
pretty clear. There's little evidence regarding Elsehra Bob and nobody,
none of the charges associated with the funding of terrorism,
So the government doesn't feel like it can charge anybody
on the terrorism on the funding of terrorism, at least
charge from what we can tell. But the thought is real.

(11:14):
It happened. There's no I guess there really is no question.
There doesn't seem to be any question about that. The
fact that Somali's constitute a vast majority of the people accused,
there is no question about that. The will discussion debate

(11:35):
that is going on is what can we learn from this?
And look, one of the things that's also fairly clear
from this is in spite of the fact that the
government has been pretty quick to act on this, the
government did hesitate and did act slowly, slower than I
guess some people would like, and slower than what people

(11:57):
were pointing out that something weird was going on and
the government acted slowly, and and there's plenty of reasons
to believe, plenty of reasons to believe that the act.
The government acted slowly because they didn't want to alienate
the Somali community for political reasons. They acted slowly because

(12:21):
they didn't want to be accused of racism. Now, this
to me is the most interesting aspect of the whole
case and the worst aspect of the whole case. I mean,
other than people commaning fraught is awful, But the worst
aspect of this, in my view, is this, uh, you know,

(12:46):
groomer gang phenomena that we know from the UK were like,
everybody knew that there were there were grooming gangs. Everybody
knew that young British girls were being raped and being
groomed and being used by these primari Pakistani groups of men,

(13:11):
and the police refuse to act out of fear, refuse
to act to protect little girls out of fear of
being accused of racism. I mean, this is exactly the
opposite of the behavior that is demanded, and it's the

(13:32):
opposite of what is needed in order to get these
people to have any chance of assimilation. The number one
thing you must do with immigrants, particularly immigrants who come
from a different culture, a culture where they can get
away with stuff, is to make clear to them unequivocally

(14:00):
that the rule of law will apply to them. That
they are now in a new culture, in a new place,
where there are new rules a place where we do
not We do not tolerate corruption, We certainly do not
tolerate rape. We certainly do not tolerate abusing little goals,

(14:20):
we being the British, or we being the government of Minneapol, Minnesota.
I mean, this needs to be clamped down. It needs
to be clamped down quickly and aggressively. It's the only
hope for the better people, the better Somalis. They need

(14:44):
to learn as quickly as possible what the standards are
in this country, what expectations are in this country. So
the idea that people turn the blind eye to this
because they don't want to be called racist, because these
are black, they don't want to be called you know,
they don't want offend a voting group as if you

(15:07):
know that is more important than law and order. It's
just absurd. And of course there was no one voting group,
of one voting block among Somali's they they you know,
we saw that in the mayoral race in Minneapolis. One

(15:29):
block of Somalis voted for the current mayor, another one
voted for the Somali who was running against him. They
didn't vote as one block. Of course, even then they
were they were ridiculed for being tribal because they split
into two blocks. If they'd all voted as one block,
they would have been ridiculed for voting as one block.
But they voted in two blocks, so they were really cool.

(15:50):
You can't win, right, But they need to be they
need to be unequivocally to be clear to them that
they will not get away with this, and that the
United States does not will not treat them differently, will
not treat them better because they're immigrants, because they're blacks,

(16:13):
or because of any other reason. So I think that's,
you know, one of the one of the major you
know thing here. And you know, by some instuments, more
than a billion dollars of taxpayer money was stolen over

(16:35):
the past five years, and note where were stolen from
and these programs. To me, one of the other things
that jumps out is when you institute crazy, never ending,

(16:56):
no limits welfare programs, you're gonna get foed. Why didn't
somebody say stop when this one program went from three
million to two hundred million, It's like, WHOA, we don't
have that kind of money. But this is the thing
with government. They just write checks, write checks, there's no consequences.

(17:19):
Write checks, and then a few years later they discovered
some of those checks were fraudulent. Oh big deal. I mean, indeed,
much of the money that went out during COVID, you know,
by some instruments, well over fifty billion dollars fifty billion
with a B dollars were fraudulent. You know, people make

(17:43):
claims that they didn't just they weren't there. But they're
never going to be caught. Most of them will never
be caught. And of course the whole premise of welfare
is fraudulent. You deserve stuff because you need it. Other
people's money must be taking away from them because you

(18:06):
claim to need it. What does need even mean? Go
to work, make a living and you'll need is not
them all claim? Certainly not an excuse to use violence
or force against somebody else. I mean, in my view,

(18:29):
the real you know, what this really reveals is the
absurd proliferation of warfare programs. The fact that these warfare
programs are blank checks where they can start a three
million and go to two hundred million within one year
and nobody seems to care. This is a direct consequence

(18:51):
of the welfare state. The existence of the welfare, say,
the size of the wealth of state. Indeed, the Welfes
state is probably the number one barrier to assimilation. The
number one way in which people assimilate in this country

(19:12):
into American society is by working, is by getting a job,
by speaking the language, by interacting with other people who
are not like them. That's what assimilation looks like. Welfare
of all that's different shapes and kinds and so on.
Prevents them from getting a job, disincentivize them going to

(19:36):
get a job, and ifore, disincentivizes them from integrating, from assimilating.
So two things. One stop stop being afraid of image

(20:00):
or people of color. Do your job, police, or whoever's
responsible catching these fraudsters, do your job. Jason Riley, writing
in the Wall Street Journal, Rights, the massive fraud was
an open secret. Mary Garland, who served as US Attorney
General under Joe Biden, called it the largest pandemic relief

(20:24):
hustle in the nation. Democratic state officials also suspected wrongdoing,
but didn't want to upset an important voting block or
to be accused of racism. That's the scandal right there.
Here's also a Jason Riley Rights, which I think is
very good. It's not so true that Somali's hardly the

(20:46):
first migrant group to arrive in America with unwelcome cultural baggage.
In the early nineteen hundreds, crime was so prevalent in
New York's Jewish and Italian neighborhoods that a specialized detective
force was established. These weren't merely negative perceptions or ugly stereotypes. Unfortunately,

(21:11):
these groups were willing to face reality. Yeah, once the
police comes in and forces them to face reality, cultures
can adapt, but they will require confronting the problem rather
than ignoring it or pretending that anyone who speaks out
in acting is acting in bad faith. Now, of course,

(21:38):
big reason why politicians are so afraid of confronting the
Somali community is because there are people within the Somali
community that will accuse them of racism no matter what
they do. A good example of this as Representative elan Omar,

(21:58):
who is not acknowledged the evil of this fraud case,
is constantly talking about how Somalis being discriminated against and
how there's racism and how they're the victim. And she
is a huge support of all this proliferation of welfare
programs that the Somali community benefits from she arguably is

(22:24):
not a proponent of assimilation. And and this is the
thing about these groups, They are often the victims of
their own leadership, of a leadership that sustain itself as
a leadership by making sure that community does not assimilate.

(22:50):
Like how you the leader of the Somali community. When
the community assimilates and integrates and maybe breaks apart, maybe
lives in all kinds of different places, doesn't stick together
as a union in one city, that you lose your
political power, You lose your political base. People like ilhan
Oma ideologically don't want the Somalis to assimilate, and politically

(23:13):
from a power perspective, do not want the Somalis to assimilate.
So to the extent that there's no assimilation, it's people
like her the intellectual political leadership of these communities. And
the only way to change that is by persecuting the

(23:36):
guilty and by demanding assimilation. And the best way to
do that. Best way to do that is cut them
off of welfare, not cut them off in wealth, because
there's Somalis. Cut everybody off of welfare, you know, make
them go get a job, make them ask a charity

(23:57):
if they want, they if they need help, and the
charities then can can can set conditions on the charity.
Governor Waltz is in big trouble over this because he's
kind of the guy who turned the blind eye for
political reasons and very politically is very vulnerable. Uh. By

(24:23):
the way, some of these warfare programs, like they Medicaid,
Housing Stabilization Service is actually being scrapped. Now. If it's
being scrapped, now, was it ever needed? I mean, my
guess is Minnesota probably has I don't know, one hundred
different warfare programs. I don't know, I have no idea.

(24:48):
So you got to you gotta tackle root causes, and
the root causes a lack of assimilation within this community,
and and and letting them get away, letting him get
away with murder. By the way, part of the problem
is that, of course Minneapolis was where the George Floyd
episode happened, where he was killed, where the riots began.

(25:14):
You know, it's it's it's a it's a city and
a state that is super sensitive to the accusations of racism.
But that's part of the problem. You need to stop.
And it's a state just from a perspective of crime
that has seen the number of police go down significantly

(25:35):
since George Floyd, instead of doing the opposite, which is
increasing police at the same time. Look, in spite of
all the efforts of Somali leadership and political leadership and
welfare state and everything else not to allow the Somalis
to assimilate, they are slowly doing it anyway. Poverty rates

(26:00):
are down, workforce participation is up, home ownership rates up
over the last twenty years. It's still a long way
to go, and it's been too slow because for the
reasons I mentioned. But you know, it's not a lost case.

(26:26):
There's no reason for it to be a lost case.
You know, if you if you are born Somali, let's
say you're bone Somali in the United States now second generation,
there's no gene that prevents you from from from uh
embracing Western civilization. There's no gene that forces you to uh,

(26:48):
you know, stay a part of Somali culture. So Mali
culture is awful. Samaria is a horrible place. Like you know,
sometimes I agree with Trump on a sentence here, sentence there.
It's rare, but sometimes and he's right. Somalia is a shithole.
It's a horrible country. It's a country, you know, in anarchy,

(27:09):
in a state of anarchy for years. Again, a good
example of what anarchy looks like that you can send
all your libertarian friends to they should all move there.
But it's not genetic. It's cultural. In other words, it's

(27:31):
completely accessible to human free will. In other words, people
can adopt a different culture, people can walk away from
their culture, people can assimilate, people can change. The Italians
and the Jews certainly did. They came from very different
cultures when they moved to the US in the early
nineteenth century. They were not civilized in the American sense,

(27:54):
in the Western European sense, they were not. They were
the poor, They were the drag of Europe. The Jews
came from Eastern Europe, and they were you know, they
were from little statos, from little villages in Eastern Europe.
They had no sense of the city, they had no
sense of kind of the rules of law that America had.

(28:18):
They had to lun and they larned. They did well.
That's true of every group of immigrants that comes to
this country. They have to run. We don't help them
learn by handing them cash. We don't help them learn
by looking the other way when they commit offenses. When

(28:38):
they commit offenses, it's an opportunity to teach them what
our expectations really are. And this is true here, this
is too here in you know, in the United States,
and it is true in Europe. You know, even Muslims

(29:06):
are not beyond assimilation. They can will assimilate if they're
expected to and if the police don't look the other
way when they commit crimes. So I'm glad you know

(29:27):
the the whoever is responsible within the state of Minnesota
for going after them is going after them. I just
saw the number eighty something people have now been charged.
My guess is that will be well of one hundred
by the time they ended. This is an ongoing investigation.
It's only going to get big up. And this is good.

(29:53):
And if they're Somalis, there's Somalies. If they're not Somalis,
are not some Allis, you don't prosecute them all. Don't
take into account race, don't think you can to account
country of origin, immigration status. Send him to US as
as big of a sentences as they deserve, as they deserve,

(30:17):
all right, So yeah, we'll keep an eye on what
happens in some in Minnesota. In Minneapolis primarily because the
reality is that Donald Trump's going to keep us in
the headlines because you know, he went on this, you know,

(30:40):
basically racist. Uh diet trapped the other day, well yesterday
in the I think it was during the cabinet meeting.
And uh, that'll keep it in the news for a while.
So we'll update you if there's news coming out about that.
Uh let's see, all right, mhmm, what are they what

(31:15):
is going on here? Seems to be the fighting, some
fighting going on in my on my thing. I'm not
sure what it is, all right, I'm gonnagno it. Let's see,
all right, came across this story, the story that in

(31:40):
the Atlantic magazine. Uh, that is pretty wild. It's really,
you know, a a pretty insane uh a story. So
you know, American universities have recognized the fact. I guess
that's some students have a hard time uh, you know,

(32:05):
concentrating or have a different kind of uh you know,
mental disabilities that make it difficult for them to do
exams and things like that. I think when I was
a professor, this is back in the nineties, we had
to give them a little extra time, and there was usually,
I don't know, one every other class there would be
one student who came in and and and and you

(32:28):
would have to give them an extra half hour or
give them more time for them to complete the exam,
and things like that. This is this is you know,
the number of students now has just gone through the roof.
I'm reading from the story. Professors now struggle to accommodate
the many students with an official disability designation, which may

(32:53):
entitle them to extra time, an distraction fee, environment, or
the use of otherwise prohibited technology. This is intake exam.
The University of Michigan has two centers where students with
disabilities can take exams, but they frequently fill to capacity,
leaving professors scrambling to find more desks and proctors. Many

(33:18):
students now take their exams in the school's load distraction
testing outposts that they have become more distracting than the
main classrooms because they're most students. They Accommodation and higher
education were supposed to help disabled Americans enjoy the same
opportunities as everyone else. Equal opportunity. It always starts with

(33:41):
that right. No one should be kept from taking a class,
for example, because they are physically unable to enter the
building where it's taught right. Over the past decade and
a half, however, to share of students at selective universities
who qualify for accommodations of extra time on tests has

(34:02):
grown at a breath taking place. At the University of Chicago,
the numbers more than tripled over the past eight years.
At UC Berkeley, it has nearly quadrupled over the past
fifteen years. Now, if that's going from one to four,
that wouldn't be a big deal. But here's some numbers

(34:23):
at Brown and Harvard. At Brown and Harvard, more than
twenty percent of undergraduates are registered as disabled. Harvard University
in Bromp, two of the top universities in the country,
twenty percent of disabled. At Amherst, another top university, more

(34:46):
than thirty percent of disabled, And at Stanford University in California,
nearly forty percent of the students are categorized as disabled.
Soon some universities is going to have more disabled students
than quote normal students. You know what's happened as students

(35:12):
as their parents figured out that claiming disability gives you
extended time on exams, housing, accommodations, all kinds of other benefits.
The rates of disabilities at colleges, especially at elite colleges, exploded.

(35:33):
Now this is not really that surprising people, particularly, you know,
particularly people who live a life in which maybe there's
some unthinking going on, disintegration going on, people responding sentives.

(35:55):
If you give huge advantages to disabilities, people will become this.
If you give huge advantages, I don't know, like free
homes to homeless people, people become homeless. I mean, we
used to stigmatized disability, probably you know, in a in

(36:18):
an unfair way. But now it's like wooh, it's like, yeah,
let's celebrate it, let's give you goodies. I mean to
say that at Stanford half the students are cognitively disabled,
you have to then question how they got into Stanford.

(36:41):
If cognitive disability means anything, how did they get into
standards into Stanford. Here's again a section from this article.
The surge itself is undeniable. Soon in some schools may
have more students receiving accommodations than not, a scenario that
would have seemed absurd just a decade ago. Already, as

(37:04):
we said at one law school, forty five percent of
students receive academic accommodation. Paul Graham Fisher, Stanford Stanford professor
who served as co chair of the university's Disability Task Force,
told me I have had conversations with people in Stanford
administration that they've talked about at what point can we

(37:28):
say no when it hits fifty percent or sixty percent,
or maybe all of the students should be disabled. Continuing
for the article, at what point do you just say
we can't do this? This year, thirty eight percent of
Stanford undergraduates are registered as having disability. In the fall quarter,
twenty four percent of undergraduates we're receiving academic a housing accommodation.

(37:54):
I mean, talk about a snowflake generation. I mean there's
even an example here of a mother who is attending
class with her son because he has some disability that
makes it necessary food to sitting class during lectures. And

(38:15):
the problem is she like really participates, she doesn't sit quietly, right, So,
I mean this is all the consequence of a law

(38:37):
passed in nineteen ninety, the Americans with Disabilities Act, which
was meant to make life fairer for people with woral
disabilities like worlchairs, And originally it was interpreted that way,
and they built ramps and everything. And it's a bad
law because it's courserve. It forced businesses to have to
invest in all kinds of stuff that for a lot

(38:58):
of many of them wasn't necessary. That's why you have
so many disability parking slots outside of buildings that don't
have enough parking, but there's lots of disability parking spots.
The law acquired public and private institutions to provide reasonable
accommodation to individuals of physical and mental impairment that that
substantially limits one or more major life activities. And in

(39:21):
the beginning it was very slow. Supreme Court kind of
narrowed the scope of the law. Even in the early
two thousands, only a handful of of students had disabilities.
This is what I remember in the nineties. Then in
two thousand and eight, Congress amended the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Notice how all these things have originate with bad, bad legislation,

(39:48):
Bad bad Congress, bad bad Congress. They mented AD eight
to restore the law's original intent. The government broadened the
definition of disability, effectively expend expanding the number of people
the law covered. It also included a list of major
life activities that could be disrupted by disability, for example, learning, reading, concentrating, thinking, God,

(40:14):
I'm constantly constantly disrupted in my thinking. H I should
follow with disabilities and they clarified that individuals were protected
under the ADA even if their impairment didn't severely restrict
their daily life. Well, there you go. Now it's a

(40:35):
legal issue if the student applies and is not accepted
because their disability, or if he is accepted and his
disability is not accommodated for he sues the university under
the ADA. In response to two thousand and eight Amendment,
the Association are on Higher Education and Disabilities, an organized
you know, you know release guidance urging universities to give

(40:59):
great await to students own accounts of how they disability
affected them, rather than relying on God forbid solely a
medical diagnosis. So now you don't even have to show
a doctor slip to say, yeah, I can't do an
exam unless I have an extra two hours. I need
complete quiet. I need a massuits to massage me every

(41:23):
thirty minutes so that I can stay loose for the exam,
otherwise it triggers my anxiety and I just can't do
the exam. Here's what the Association for I Education and Disability.
This association said, quote require meing extensive medical and scientifical

(41:46):
evidence perpetuates a deviance model of disability. I'm sorry, but
this is like, this is where war bs comes from.
You know, it's all about the emotions of the person.
It's all about your subjective perceptions. Requiring extensive medical and

(42:07):
scientific ovenuet perpetuates a deviance model of disability, undervalues the
individual's history and experience with disability, and it's inappropriate and
burdensome under the revised statute and regulations. So you have
to take an account the way they feel, not the

(42:28):
objective evidence about their disability, but the way they feel,
and it perpetrates a deviance. Well, I mean, the different
they're devating from norm disability is different. It's a disability.
This I'm surprised they're even willing to use that word, right,

(42:52):
it's a very dissing word. I mean, this is the
insanity of of of kind of these leftist ide But
of course, I'm sure the ADA was passed with the
full support of Republicans. This is pure altruism. How can
we not take care of people with disabilities and how
do we not give them extra credit? And it's not

(43:14):
good that to stream code narrow the focus. We need
to make it as broad as possible. I mean, this
is basically part of the whole campaign over the last
twenty years to elevate emotions above all else, above science
about medical You know how you feel, that's what's important.
If you feel like you need extra time on the test,

(43:36):
we'll give you extra time in the test. This is
the insanity that the Left is brought on this country.
And what's happening now is that close to fifty percent
of all students that are universities and now disabled based
on this model and believe themselves to be disabled and
believe that they should get special treatment because disability. Remember intersectionality.

(43:59):
If you have a disability, you get more points, you
rise up, you get you know you, you get to
demand that people give you stuff. It's it's it gives you.
It elevates you morally to be disabled. And all you
need is to declare it. You don't even need a
slip from the doctor anyway. If you're interested in more

(44:24):
of this and a total analysis of this. You can
find this article. It's called Accommodation Nation. America's colleges have
extra time on tests problem by woes. Horowitz Accommodation Nation
at the Atlantic magazine. All right, talk a little bit

(44:51):
about Russia. So I got it. God, why did I
have so many topics on there? This is going to
be a long show, guys. So you know we've we've
met our first hour goal. But you know, I don't know,
it's going to be a long show. Yesterday, Wickcuff and

(45:12):
what's his name, Javid Kushna I met with Putin five hours.
They had a five hour meeting with Putin and to
try to, you know, figure out negotiate a peace deal.
You know, basically coming out of the meeting, there's no

(45:32):
deal Russian's and not a compromising I told you this yesterday.
But what's interesting is it turns out that during this meeting,
five hour meeting. The reason it was five hours is that,
you know, Putin gave them a long lecture. I don't
think it was a pop up presentation, but he brought
a file with him, an entire file on the history
of Russia. He gave them a long lecture about the

(45:54):
seventeen oh nine Battle of Poltava. You know, basically, I
don't know what the Battle of Pultava is. It's one
of the key battles of the Great Northern War, where
Peter the First defeated the Swedish Army of Charles the twelfth,

(46:15):
and there's a Corsak army in it. It was a
big deal. But this has all to do with the
claim Putin's claim that Ukraine is it's part of Russia's,
part of the mother. Russia's heart is torn by the
idea that Ukraine would be separated from Russia. I mean,
in his interview with Tucker Caruson, Putin spent half an

(46:35):
hour recounting Ukrainian history, and he keeps coming back to this.
This is I mean, this is what he said repeatedly,
was the reason for the invasion of Ukraine, to bring
it back to where it belongs, to unite the Russian
speaking people's, to heal the wounded spirit of the Russian being,

(47:05):
or whatever the hell it was, the mystical whatever. Putin
has no intention of giving up on his wish to
take over Ukraine, and whatever deal he comes to today
is an interim deal to take a breather so that
he can then start again and go after the rest
of Ukraine. Whatever deal Putin is going to agree to

(47:27):
is going to be a deal where he is going
to demand the weakening of Ukraine to make it possible
for him to take it over. And he's and the
only reason he can play this game, the only reason
he can get away with it, The only reason he
has taken seriously at all is because he has an ally,
an out and out unequivocal one hundred percent ally in

(47:50):
Donald Trump, where the only reason Trump is not just
handing Putin everything he wants is because some people around
him object to it, Like there's some people in MEGA
who are on the side of Ukraine, Rubio for example,
but other in his base and most overwhelming majority of

(48:12):
Senate Republicans and House Republicans on the side of Ukraine,
so he can't quite get away with it, he feels politically,
But from every other respect, Trump is complete one hundred
percent pro Russia, pro Russia, and.

Speaker 2 (48:41):
Is h.

Speaker 1 (48:44):
You know, Putin is playing with these people, He's playing
with them. He lectures to them, he tells them stories.
I mean, during the meeting with Trump, in Alaska. Putin
brought a massive folder of historical documents that he tried
to show Trump. I mean, Trump's not interested in history,
doesn't care. He really really doesn't care, but Putin cares anyway.

(49:16):
So far, no peace steal. Shockingly, no peace steal, and
I don't I don't expect one unless Trump really, you know,
gets fed up and just demands Ukraine. Ukraine surrenders and
finished with it. All right. A few stories relating to Israel.

(49:38):
Will just run through these quickly, mostly about the different
types of misinformation that is out there. One is a
story coming out today that Israel in Lebanon will have
first ever civilian meeting, which which is to try to

(49:59):
establish ultra at least some kind of peaceful relations between
Israel and Lebanon. I'm not sure how this can literally
come to be, because Israel's going to demand that this
arming of Grisbela. Lebanon is going to say they'd like to,
but they can't. Gasbelae is too powerful, they can't do
it themselves, and yet they don't want Israel to actually
do it. So nothing is actually going to come of this.

(50:24):
But that's this part of the you know, a charade
that Trump is playing to pretend that he is the
great peacemaker and everything's great in the Middle East. Everything
could be great in the Middle East if Trump would
just let Israel get on with the job. That is
what this meeting is meant. This meeting is under the

(50:46):
pressure of Trump. What this meeting has been called is
because Israel told Trump that it is going to start
a massive bombing campaign of Risbella targets Becausezbela has been
re arming, rebuilding its infrastructure. The Israel Israel's already killed
the number two in Grisbela, and it wanted us start

(51:06):
this massive bobbing complaint. And Trump said, no, I don't
accept that. You have to work for peace with Lebanon.
And it's just like there's no point they can't Disablebela,
just like nobody's gonna disable Ramas and Gaza. We have
to do it. And Trump says, no, no, no, you have
to go. You have to you have to do this
peace thing, this peace thing. And I mean if Israel

(51:35):
had been allowed to sustain its offensive against Iran to
the point of regime collapse, a lot of these problems
in the Middle East would go away. If Israel would
have been allowed to thoroughly defeat Ramas and occupy the
entire Gaza strip. Haramas problem would go away if Israel
were allowed to continue to you know, just cross Grisabela

(51:58):
Chrismaela problem would go away, and they'd be peace in them.
At least peace will come to the Middle East when
Israel wins victory. And the thing preventing Israel from winning
is Trump. It's Trump, all right? What else related to this? Yeah,

(52:25):
I mean, you constantly hear the claim of genocide. More
and more people TikTok videos, you know, lots of just
claims of genocide. The absolute reality is in every study
that's actually looked at the numbers, looked what happened, looked
at Israel's tactics, looks at what happened on the ground,

(52:45):
there was no genocide. Indeed, the Israeli warned, Gaza will
go down in history as one where the ratio of
civilians the combatants killed is the lowest in history, the
lowest in all the history of urban warfare. It's indeed

(53:06):
a number nobody who knows anything about warfare they can
barely believe. But it's a consequence of the fact that
the Israeli army is so professional and so good at
what it does and has gone out of its way
to not kill civilians. When you hear seventy thousand dead, that,

(53:26):
by the way, includes all the people who died of
natural causes in Gaza since October twenty twenty three, so
for over two years, all the people who died just
of natural causes. It also includes all the people who
are affiliated with Ramas. The actual number of civilians is

(53:53):
very killed by Israel is unbelievably low, unbelievable and God
Yet you see these accusations repeatedly, and you can debunk
them all you want. It doesn't matter. It's it's the

(54:16):
same blood libel against Jews as was introduced in the
Middle Ages. It's the same story about you know, jewsy
drinking baby blood. Facts don't matter. The blood libel repeats
itself and comes back and comes back and comes back.
Over two hundred celebrities have now taken a position about

(54:39):
the need that for the Israeli government to release from
prison from a multiple life sentences. Mawan Baguri Mawan is
one of the one of the masterminds of you know

(55:00):
the dozens, dozens and dozens and dozens of terrorist attacks
that occurred during the Second Into Fudda in the early
two thousands, that where Jewish babies were taking hostage and
murdered in cold blood. He was responsible for several attacks

(55:22):
in Israel where people were killed butchered. He is a
convicted murderer and is serving multiple life sentences, and yet
he is a charismatic man who is a potential leader
of the Palestinian movement, and they want him released. They

(55:44):
want to release from jail with all that blood in
his hands. And we're talking about people that I like,
I want to throw up, but yeah, I mean Paul simon,
Ian McKellen, famous Shakespearean actor, Benedict Cumberbatch, really like his

(56:04):
acting till the Swinton. I don't know who that is,
Josh O'Connor, any lenox Sting, Margaret Atwood, two hundred celebrities.
What do they know, what do they understand? What context
do they have to make such a demand? Who the
f are they to make such a demand? But by

(56:30):
one standard, it's just these a learned experts in the
Middle East and they've come to the conclusion that he
is innocent, And what the hell is or brings out
the worst in people really does brings out the worst.
Insum it brings out the best, but in most it

(56:52):
brings out the worst, just the worst. Then you get
these tweets, right, you know, left and right. It doesn't
really matter. Why does Israel get free healthcare and Americans
facing medical bankruptcy? Why do Israelis get free education and
Americans don't? And we send them billions upon billions of dollars?

(57:13):
Why are our taxpayers subsidizing this? So America sends there's
all three and a half billion dollars a year. I
think Israel spends several hundreds of billions of dollars on healthcare,
so you know, you know, in America spends five point

(57:35):
six trillion. So the three point eight billion that the
US sens to Israel is not going to change the
dynamics of healthcare in the United States. Even if it's
stayed here. That point eight billion dollars is all spent
on medical sorry, on military equipment bought from the United States.
All the money comes back to the US. If you

(58:00):
took all that money and directed it to I don't know, education,
it wouldn't affect anything, It wouldn't make a dent. But
it just sounds we give those murderers money and we
are suffering. What the hell? And by the way, healthcare
and education are not free in Israel. They're not free anyway,
as Milton Friedman said, there's no such thing as a

(58:21):
free lunch. They're paid for by taxes, by Israeli taxes,
and Israeli's paid much higher rates than Americans. So it
is education by Israeli taxes, and they pay a much
higher rate than Americans. And yes, Americas shouldn't give Israel
three and a half billion, threety eight billion dollars. But
of all the money that the US government spends, is

(58:43):
this the most problematic. It's a tiny speck and you
get a pretty good return on the money. It's just
America should be giving money to Israel. So yeah, all right,

(59:04):
let's jump into watching Steve watching Bannon and Kurtis Yovin.
I came across these videos. I thought this would be good.
So you'll see both these videos have in a sense
of common theme. I mean, they're disgusting in a variety
of different ways, but to have a common theme, and

(59:26):
that is that the American right, the New Right, it's
dedicated itself to rewriting history, rewriting history. And they have
two goals in this rewriting of history. It's to make
Russia the good guys. And to do that they have

(59:47):
to kind of find ways to make the Soviets Union
look good, to make Stalin look good. So, because they
are traditionalists and because they believe history is deterministic, to
say Russia is good today, you have to say Russia
has always been good. Russia being on outside, Russia are

(01:00:10):
our friends. We will hear we will hear that in
a minute. And of course the big part of that
is World War Two. So Russians were the good guys
in World War Two, the good guys in World Wars,
better than England, better than anybody. And the second that
then you write is very much dedicated to is too,

(01:00:37):
you know, kind of uh normalized Hitler and the Nazis
normalize Nazi Germany. Nazi Germany wasn't all bad. There were
good things about Nazi Germany. There was some good stuff
about Nazi Germany. So you know, those are the two

(01:00:59):
projects of the of the of the modern right. That's
what they're out against. This is why, you know, for
Intese keeps is said to Tucker cousin. They need Maya Stalin.
It's why he constantly, twice, you know, expresses admiration for Hitler.
It's why Tucker Causon keeps having different people on his
show saying Hitler wasn't as bad as people think. And

(01:01:22):
even this so each union they won't as bad as
people think. And you know, those are the two and first.
The third aspect of this that you'll see and I
see this in particularly in Tucka, but it's also in
for intess and others, is a whitewashing of Islamism. Is
this idea that Islamism is not as bad as people think.

(01:01:42):
It's the Jews that are the problem, not the Muslims.
Those are the three big projects of the right historical revisionism.
See here's the first one. This is Stephen Bannon. This
is Stephen Bannon talking about Russia, talking about Russia and
Russia's are particularly I mean Russia and the Nazis. You

(01:02:05):
know what really animates them about Russia and Germany? What
animates about Russia and Germany they're white, the white and
in terms of Russia, clearly the Christian although I don't
know about Stalin, and you know, really the Nazis were

(01:02:25):
too soon, they'll embrace the fact that the Nazis were Christian.
So let's listen to let's this is Stephen Bannon about Russia.

Speaker 3 (01:02:37):
Thing on the Cia is outrageous, Like, here's the plan.
The plan is you have a devoutly Christian nation in
Russia who was our ally.

Speaker 4 (01:02:46):
Let me remind people.

Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
So the devoutie Christian today church attendants in Russia is
very low, very low. How Christian are they? Not very
at all? Church attendants in Russia is lower than it
is in most states in the United States, or maybe
in any state in the United States. Most Russians are
not that I mean the mystical, the kind of superstitious,

(01:03:12):
but not particularly religious in terms of christian But the
right has relabeled because of Putin and because of his
the way he articulates his case. They relabeled Russia, and
you saw that Jordan Peterson did the same thing. They
relabeled Russia as this Christian nation, the beast and west

(01:03:33):
of the West, because Christianity is the West. It's a
Christian nation, and therefore they're the good guys. And we
know they're the good guys because they used to be allies.
Of course, people can't change the fact that there are allies.
Once doesn't change and it's just mind boggling there were allies.
But then he doesn't talk at all about the Cold

(01:03:55):
War where they were enemies in.

Speaker 4 (01:03:59):
Russia, who was our ally?

Speaker 3 (01:04:00):
Let me remind people, they were our true ally in
World War Two.

Speaker 4 (01:04:04):
They lost twenty five million people.

Speaker 1 (01:04:06):
They were a true ally as compared to our false
allies like the.

Speaker 4 (01:04:11):
British soldiers fighting the Wehrmacht.

Speaker 3 (01:04:15):
It would have taken us ten fifteen years, and who
knows if we'd even do it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:20):
That is complete bs, she shaid. Have Victor Davis Hanson
asked Victor Davis Hanson about what would have happened if
the Russians had not lost twenty five million people. I mean,
and we'll talk about why Russia entered the war and
under what circumstances Russia entered the war as our quote
ally really ally. I mean, these people are They're not ignorant,

(01:04:44):
they're not delusional. They are lias their bold face, unequivocal lias.

Speaker 4 (01:04:55):
With just the United Kingdom, in the United States, everybody
else surrendered.

Speaker 3 (01:04:58):
The French surrendered, The Spanish were on their side, claimed neutrality.
The Italians were on their side. Half of Eastern Europe
was on their side. All of the Norwegians, the Swedes,
all of those guys were on their side.

Speaker 4 (01:05:11):
All of them on the side of the Nazis.

Speaker 3 (01:05:13):
Okay, NATO today, all the leadership didn't lift a finger
except for the Poles.

Speaker 1 (01:05:17):
Notice how history determines the present, So NATO didn't lift
a finger. There was no NATO back then. The people
who made decisions back then went alive. Many of those
countries try to fight, but faced the overwhelming force from

(01:05:41):
the Nazis. The French fought, they just folded very quickly.
The Belgiums fought, They just folded very quickly because of
overwhelming for it by the Nazis. But because they folded
in World War Two, they are not our allies today.

(01:06:03):
I mean that historical determinism, that it's in their genes
to not fight the Nazis, to not be our allies.
It's just the collectivism, the tribalism, the determinism that these
people hold is truly medievalist. These people are medievilists. They

(01:06:25):
do not belong in the twenty first century. They certainly
do not belong in America. These people are anti American.
They stand for everything that is against America, collectivism and
tribalism and determinism and statism. There is other than the

(01:06:46):
extreme left. There is no more anti American force today
than this alt right new right, led to a large
extent by people like Steve Benner.

Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
That helped us out when and where they could. So remember,
we're going against our traditional ally.

Speaker 1 (01:07:04):
A traditional and I remember from nineteen forty something, forty eight,
let's say, until nineteen ninety one, they were like our foe.
They were the enemy. There's a cold war. He skips
over that. That doesn't count. They were ally traditional ally?

(01:07:26):
What other ward were they ally? Were they ally in
World War One? No, they backed out of World War One?
You know before the US entered the war. Were they
our ally in the I don't know the Crimean War?
Where were they ally exactly? In WHATLD war? Was Russia
ally other than World War two? But they are traditional
ally forever, we mean friends with Russia forever. There's no

(01:07:50):
cold war that just disappears, it just evaporates.

Speaker 3 (01:07:54):
Oh, by the way, the guys that stopped the Ottoman Turk,
stopped Napoleon, stopped Hitler, just to name just couple three
off the top of my head.

Speaker 1 (01:08:02):
The Ottoman Tooks are attacking the US. Oh no, he
means white people, white people. They stop the Automan Tooks
to attacking white people.

Speaker 4 (01:08:10):
I think I want to take with those guys, not these.

Speaker 1 (01:08:12):
Did they or was it really you know, the Poles
and Lithuanians and the Austrians who actually stopped the Ottomans
in Vienna in sixteen eighty three.

Speaker 3 (01:08:23):
I think it was beckless, hapless atheistic who are being
overrun by Islam.

Speaker 1 (01:08:28):
Yeah, so it's the atheists who are bad. It's the
atheist Europeans who are bad. It's Western European that are bad.
The good guys are the Russians. They're the good guys.

Speaker 3 (01:08:38):
They can't sell a thirty year bond right now. You
know why they can't sell a thirty year bond.

Speaker 4 (01:08:42):
They can't sell a.

Speaker 3 (01:08:42):
Thirty year bond because nobody knows who's going to be
in charge in thirty years.

Speaker 1 (01:08:46):
It's just not true. Not only are they selling thirty
year bonds right now, Denmark is setting thirty year bonds
at a lower interest rates than the United States. Is
they're having an easier time selling thirty year bonds in
the US is now again. He's not an idiot. He
worked for Goldman Sachs. He knows what he's talking about
in bonds. He knows it's not to what he just said.

(01:09:10):
He lies. It's just bold faced lying, you know, to
achieve a political end, to make Russia appear like the
good guys. Cold War out. Europe is bad up. Can't
sell a bond when they can every date. It's the

(01:09:31):
United States. It's in trouble of selling bonds.

Speaker 3 (01:09:35):
And maybe the Muslims don't want to, you know, and
I don't want to be charged interest, so they're gonna
stiffy on the payment.

Speaker 1 (01:09:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:40):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:09:41):
Those countries are collapsing in front of us.

Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
They have nothing as competit to Russia, which is thriving.
I mean, god standard living, quality of life in Russia
through the roof, there's so much richer than Europeans. Yeah right.
I mean some of the poorest countries in Eastern Europe
maybe are similar to Russia, but Russia is dramatically and

(01:10:07):
significantly significantly poorer than than Western Europe. I mean, Russia
is poor and right now the body bags the two
hundred and fifty thousand people that have died or more

(01:10:28):
the million people that have been injured. Russia is the
basket case, I complete and utter basket case, ruled by
a megalomaniac nutcase putin. And you're complaining about Western Europe
in comparison, Oh, a lot poorer than Poland, particularly given
the growth. I mean Poland is growing significantly, many times

(01:10:52):
faster than than Russia. This guy is lying through his teeth.
Somebody says they didn't know Bannon was a was a
was a finance guy. Yeah, he was. He to Golden
Sex and where.

Speaker 4 (01:11:06):
Supposed caltal to them. No, it's ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (01:11:10):
It's time now to look see what we see and
start taking action.

Speaker 4 (01:11:14):
Action action. Recall Kelly today. He's a tough guy.

Speaker 3 (01:11:18):
He's going on with a Jimmy Kimmel or Colbert one
of the shows list night talking more smack Pete, your.

Speaker 4 (01:11:23):
Secretary of freaking war.

Speaker 3 (01:11:25):
Recall this guy today, and let's convene a court martial
Friday morning, zero eight hundred and then have them in
Levenworth zero eight hundred.

Speaker 1 (01:11:35):
So Kelly is the senator who who did that video
together with a bunch of other senators about soldiers shouldn't
obey illegal orders and he wants him in living living
with anyway. You can see this campaign just a few
of the other historical facts. Right, this is a Nikos
posted a post do you know what? Do you know

(01:11:56):
what happened when when Jiminy invaded Poland? Do you know
what Russia did? What did Russia do when Germany invaded Poland?
I mean our ally, what did our traditional ally do
when Russia invaded Poland in nineteen thirty nine. I'm curious

(01:12:16):
how many of you know history? Russia also invaded Poland. Basically,
world War two started. The beginning of the World War
two is a treaty between Hitler and Stalin to divide
up Poland. To divide up Poland. So World War two

(01:12:40):
is was started by Russia and Germany. They won Germany side. Indeed,
late as November nineteen forty, Molotov, the Russian was in
Berlin making an official proposition huge Germany to join for

(01:13:02):
the usssart to join the Axis Power. So Russia is
a traditional ally. Russia was in Germany's side until what happened,
until Hitler made the arguably mistake of opening the Eastern

(01:13:23):
Front and attacking Russia. Russia didn't come to our aid.
Russia didn't do it to help us. Russia was attacked,
and when there was attacked, who helped them? Who helped him?
Who helped the Russians with stand the German attack? The
US with an amazing land leased deal that they never

(01:13:47):
had to pay back, a massive quantities of weapons they
were sent to them defend off the Germans. It was,
you know, the mechanized forces that the Red Army used
that allowed them to occupy all of Eastern Europe were

(01:14:09):
American given to them. I mean, while Americans were not
getting healthcare for free and not getting education for free,
we were giving weapons to the Russians. Who cares how
many people they lost? And then how do they reward us?

(01:14:31):
How do they reward us for FDR's generosity of granting
them the entire Eastern Europe. Pattern could have taken Eastern Europe,
at least big chunks of it the Czech Republic Czechoslovakia.
That whole area didn't need to fall under Russian occupation

(01:14:53):
and become part of the Communist bloc. It could have
been liberated by the Americans. It's a deal that if
the our cut was Stalin to give him all of that.
Were they are allies when they occupied all of eastern Europe?
Were they are allies when they stole the secrets of

(01:15:17):
how to build an atomic bomb and built their own
nuclear bombs targeted at the United States? I mean Stalin
played Churchill, he played Truman, he played FDR. He wasn't

(01:15:38):
the good guy, he wasn't a friend, he wasn't an
ally really disgusting. All right, one more, God, I take

(01:15:58):
on too many. I need to cut these shows and
make them shorter. This is ridiculous. How long these shows are? All? Right?
This is Curtis Yovin. Curtis Jovin is one of the
most influential intellectuals on the right today. He has been
embraced by the Clamont Institute in California, conservative think tank.
He's been embraced by is I, the Intercollegious Studied Institute,

(01:16:21):
an old, seventy plus old conservative institution on the East
Coast that snubbed me once I was supposed to meet.
It's the head of that and he didn't show up.
He is incredibly influential Silicon Valley, incredibly influential with people

(01:16:43):
like Marc Andreesen, Peter Tiel, and others, Jed E. Vans,
jeredy Vans, you know, getting friendly with Curtis Yovin and
influenced by him. Here is his come to Jesus moment.
This is when he realized something was very wrong, you know,
something something about what we had told about history and

(01:17:06):
about reality today very long. You know, listen to this,
Listen to this guy.

Speaker 2 (01:17:12):
You know, it's like, actually, if I, you know, to
describe the first moment in which I realized that like
things were going to happen in history had not ended.

Speaker 5 (01:17:26):
Was it was like two thousand and five or something.

Speaker 2 (01:17:29):
YouTube was a new thing, and and I.

Speaker 5 (01:17:33):
Saw this video.

Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
I'm sure it's long since disappeared, but it was really
just like kind of.

Speaker 5 (01:17:38):
Burnt a hole in me. And it wasn't even a video.

Speaker 2 (01:17:41):
It was actually just a sequence of photos sort of
presented with us kind of slow animated zoom in, dissolve,
zoom in, dissolve.

Speaker 5 (01:17:50):
Sad piano music sort of over it.

Speaker 2 (01:17:53):
And the photos were in two sequences, so that you know,
the even photos in the odd photo is all matched,
and the even photos were sort of brightly colored pictures
of just like general Western you know, decadence, decay, rot, filth.

Speaker 5 (01:18:13):
You know, we've all.

Speaker 2 (01:18:14):
Seen these things, and then interspersed between them formal dress
portraits of Nazi officers. Just like you watch this thing,
you're just like filth degeneration, bright optimistic young man in
Nazi uniform. Filth degeneration, bright optimistic young man in Nazi uniform,

(01:18:38):
and you're just like.

Speaker 5 (01:18:40):
Yeah, that's the thing. And like basically it's a form because.

Speaker 2 (01:18:45):
It's it's breaking in a way. It's just it's a
totally forbidden thing, and that you watch it and you're
just like, wait a second, something's wrong here.

Speaker 1 (01:18:59):
Wow, I mean something's wrong here. What do he means
is something's wrong with the West? Look at these amazing
looking Nazis. And this goes back to Nick Foyntis yesterday,
order order, cleanliness, good uniforms, well dressed. Now, what happened

(01:19:20):
to all those good looking Nazi guys in those uniforms?
A few years later? They would have blown up, they
were defeated, They ran away, maybe hiding in a Brazilian
jungle or they you know, who knows. Their families were killed.
Millions of Germans died because of them, millions of Germans,
never mind everybody else. What is appealing about that? What

(01:19:49):
is positive about that? We are decadent? They were what
this guy, this cutish of it? He is like they go,
the real big shot. This is the guy they all admire.

(01:20:12):
I'm going to show you another. This is only twenty
eight seconds long, so I think you can tolerate it.
I hope you can tolerate it. Also could as you
have been talking about talking about what happened at the
end of World War Two.

Speaker 5 (01:20:26):
You know, the West wind in.

Speaker 2 (01:20:27):
You know, the Allies went into Germany and used these
very very harsh, you know, really criminal measures to suppress
national socialism.

Speaker 5 (01:20:36):
And they expected, like you.

Speaker 2 (01:20:38):
Know, werewolf terrorists to be everywhere, and they were nowhere.

Speaker 5 (01:20:43):
And they expected the same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:20:45):
In Japan they had Comickazis, right, you know, they had
these incredibly radicalized people nothing crickets, right, because this is
the you know, the.

Speaker 1 (01:20:55):
The West went in with hush you know, hush measures
against who against the Nazis. Yeah they were Nazis. And
why were they no terrorism in Japan or in Germany?
Because Dresden had just been flattened. He was she and
Nagasaki had just been flattened as every other major Japanese

(01:21:16):
city had been You don't get terrorism when you demonstrate
that kind of ruthless you know, uh, complete domination. But
the point about the West was, you know, very very

(01:21:37):
harsh measures, criminal measures to suppress national socialism. Really after
five years of war. This is a leading lights for
the new right, for the for the for the for

(01:21:58):
the new right, for the ultra right. This is the
intellectual leader. This is who people were quoting me when
I was doing that debate in San Francisco. He believes
that the United States should embrace monarchy. After all, our
corporations are run by ceo. The country should be run
by a king, which is like a CEO. We're in

(01:22:26):
bad shape, guys, Intellectually, this country is bad shap because
the alternative on the left is no better. You know,
I think the Nick Fuenttis of the left is Hassan Pika.
He's a man who platforms terrorists, promotes political violence, you know,

(01:22:48):
shingless propaganda for murderous authoritarian regimes. He's just a sick
human being. He's a hater of America, despises this country.
He said America deserves nine to eleven. And yet this
is a guy who is regularly mentioned by Democrats as

(01:23:12):
the answer to Joe Rogan, to the Joe Rogan problem.
He's the guy who is as popular. He's hosted AOC,
Bernie Sanders, Ilhan Omau, and Zoon Mamdani on his podcast uh.
He's been on podcasts for The New Yoka, for Vox.

(01:23:35):
You know, is a favorite of a number of other
kind of left wing podcasts out there. You know, he
is part of the Democrats beak tent, and yet he
is a completely He's as bad, if not worse then

(01:23:59):
then fors. And these are the people with influence, These
are the people with audiences. These are the people who
are setting the terms of the debate. These are the
people that are getting out there and getting attention. And
it really is despicable. And again I will say this,
I've said it in the past. What makes them possible,

(01:24:22):
what makes the pipe as possible, what makes Fuentas and
Tucker possible, are the more moderate people who are willing
to tolerate them. Are the more moderate people who are
willing to platform them, The more moderate people who are
not willing to stand up for any positive principle, because
if they were shunned, ridiculed, canceled by normal culture. Then

(01:24:49):
they would disappear, they would go all the way. It's
the fact that they're just you know, accepted and listen
to and platformed and debated as if they are legitimate.
These people are illegitimate. They have no legitimacy. Chris Yavin

(01:25:12):
is a zero, He's a nothing. These ideas about the
nazis despicable, hateful, horrific. The more we the more they're entertained,
the stronger these people become. So it's the moderates that,

(01:25:36):
you know, don't want to be too judgmental, are the
ones who really make this, this horror really possible. All right,
let's do these last to quickly. I'll just mentioned this
is uh uh So last week, I guess a group
of climate activists burst onto uh the stage of the

(01:26:02):
Metropolitan Opera in New York City in the middle of
the performance of Common and they you know, they created
orcus and they some of them went on stage and
and just just you know, created a real mayhemmon. Today,
the guy who led this, uh this attack on the

(01:26:24):
Oppera wrote a letter of apology, not exactly an apology.
He says, this open letter is first an apology to
the cast and explanation of our actions and a retaliate
reiituation of our plea right. First, of the cast of Common,

(01:26:44):
I'm so sorry. You have every right to be furious
with us or whatever else you feel. I know many
of you were scared. We intentionally stayed downstairs and know that,
you know, it is best irrelevant for most of you.
And then some of some people went on stage, and yeah,
that was bad. They shouldn't have gone on stage. You know.

(01:27:05):
One of my dearest friends in New York works at
the met you know. Isn't that a standard line if
you're you know? And and I accept the outcomes of
my action, including anyone's scorn. And then he says, and
then he explains why the group did it right. The
group did it because of the fact that the Lincoln

(01:27:26):
Center is named after Coke Industries.

Speaker 5 (01:27:30):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:27:30):
It's named after David Coke, and it has links to
Coke Industry, Chevron, and Texico, you know. He argues that
the presence of these names conflicts with the themes depict
it in Common. I'm not exactly how uh, and with
the institution's artistic commission. He says, David Coke is a liar.

(01:27:51):
Climate change is mass murder. Climate change is mass murder. No,
fossil fuels a savior have saved more lives than maybe
any other innovation in human history. I'll say that again,
fossil fuels have saved more lives than maybe any other

(01:28:13):
product innovation in human history. I mean, we can deal
with climate change, and we are dealing with climate change
mass murder. How many people have died from climate change?
He go goes on. I know that the person who
secured the deal with David Coke for Lincoln Center did
it with an ease. David spent millions of dollars on

(01:28:34):
misinformation political nullification. Obama almost got both parties to pass
the most ambitious climate legislation in history, and might have relegated,
negated my need to become a climate activist, but David
Coke killed it. Yay, Good for David Coke. His legacy continues.
The Greenland ice sheets alone will bury Lincoln Center in water.

(01:29:00):
Have you heard that one before? And it is said
to be past the point of an overturn. So it's
going to happen any day. New York will be flooded.
Coke Industries and Chevron are working tirelessly to ensure that
this happens. They want to see New York flooded and
we will never change and they will never change. Course,
I have heard them say it outlied on camera to

(01:29:23):
their investors before being dragged out of the room. And
for what for their profits? Profits? That they that then
they gave you to put the name of the building,
so remove the names. That's the demand. I mean, that
is such a load of garbage and absolute nonsense. That yeah,

(01:29:49):
read Alex Epstein's books. Remember he's the sponsor of the show.
Read alex Epstein dot subseat dot com if you're interested
in that old debate and why. Factually that is just
a load of garbage. The whole thing, just an absolute,
unequivocal load of garbage. The reality is right now that

(01:30:16):
the climate change nuts are losing, and they know they're losing.
In the United States, there is zero appetite for any
regulation as part of why Trump want any regulation that
limits energy, limits fossil fuels. There's just no passion around it.
Nobody cares. And indeed that is a growing sentiment in

(01:30:40):
Europe as energy costs go through the roof in Great Britain,
through the roof in Germany, nobody has the patience, nobody
wants to hear about climate change. So the tide is turned,
I think dramatically against him, against the climate change activists.

(01:31:00):
And as the world turns against them, as their voice
gets drowned, they will become more desperate and they will
put on more of these nihilistic which is what they
are ultimately than nihilists. They want New York to be flooded,
they want it to burn, because that's what will happen
if you don't have fossil fuels. New York City will

(01:31:23):
be depopulated. Millions of people will die. That's what they
really want. And if they if they let their mind
actually function and they thought about it. So they're going
to become more desperate, which is going to mean put

(01:31:45):
on bigger and bigger extravagant shows. They don't have gret
Her anymore. She's too busy with the Palestinian cause they
need attention. Their attention grab their nihilism demands it all right.
I know I had the topic birth rates. We'll talk
about that tomorrow or another time. We're already gone an
hour and a half and we've got quite a few

(01:32:06):
questions and we've raised you know, we haven't raised enough
for the second hour, so we're probably going to go
into that third hour. So again, best way to support
the show super chat. Ask me questions, I answer them.
That way, you get to set the terms of the show.
If you want to just trade and value for value,

(01:32:29):
you're listening, you're gaining value from the show. If you
would like to reciprocate, then do a sticker, ask a question.
That's a good way, a great way to reciprocate, to
express the trade of principle that we all, I think
most of us believe it. So please think about asking

(01:32:50):
a question or doing a sticker, even ninety nine cents,
even a couple of dollars, five dollars, ten dollars, five
hundred dollars. You can go up to five hundred dollars
with the stickers to do any of those. Okay, I
want to a few things. I want to remind you
that Dan Rand Institute is a sponsor of this show.
They are holding a conference in Porto, Portugal in April.

(01:33:14):

(01:36:12):
jump in with we'll stickers any amount, any amount.

Speaker 6 (01:36:20):
Let's see what I want to do. I don't remember
how we do that. Let's start this time. No, I
don't want to do that.

Speaker 1 (01:36:32):
All right, let's jump in. I'm gonna gift some memberships
here because we're gonna have a members only show soon.
You can also gift memberships. By the way, it's another
way you can support the show is by gifting memberships,
which would be great because we've got a members only
show coming up and many of you will be able
to participate. So that's great. All right, let's go through questions,

(01:36:55):
John and Uh. John says that the way to pronounce
his family name is Gloy. Sir John Gloy. Thank you.
Sorry you didn't enjoy the songs I requested. You're on,
but thanks for the honest reviews. If you're up to

(01:37:15):
one more, could you do a view of Incabbus's Drive
Incabus's Drive. Yes, I will do that. Let me copy
paste it. It mentions the importance of independence and how
fear pushes people into secondhandedness. Maybe you'll like this one.
As I said, I think when I reviewed the songs,

(01:37:36):
it wasn't so much the lyrics. I thought the lyrics
were in some cases quite good. It was more the
it was more the the music and the integration between
the music and the lyrics that I didn't like and
I didn't think was done well. Thank you, John, I

(01:38:00):
really appreciate the support. That was one hundred dollars for
the music for the song with you. You too can have
a song reviewed for one hundred bucks, all right, David,
fifty dollars. You once told me that if you were
to debate You've al Haraai, it would be on the
subject the theory of knowledge. Please explain. Oh, I can't

(01:38:21):
remember saying that, so I don't remember the context of
why I said that. You know, I'd love to debate
you all Haarrai pretty much anything. I disagree with him
on pretty much everything. But yeah, I mean, I mean,
he's basically a complete empiricist. His theory of knowledge is

(01:38:42):
completely corrupt by his inability to recognize abstractions, even though
he uses them all the time.

Speaker 2 (01:38:52):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:38:52):
So, for example, there's a video of him saying there's
no such thing as individual rights. Individual rights are nonsense
on stilts, you know, quoting Bentham. If you dissect the
human being, you will not find individual rights inside of him.
But of course you won't find love or reason, or

(01:39:15):
history or any abstractions as physical manifestations in the real world.
So it's just silly. And so his theory of knowledge
is based on what. But he's wrong on so many things.
He's wrong on what makes the human human being successful

(01:39:36):
as a species. He believes it's corporation, but you know,
way before corporation has to be ability to reason and
to think for ourselves, which allows us to communicate and
it allows us to cooperate. Corporation is just an outcome
of reasoning. But reasoning is the fundamental. So I could

(01:39:59):
debate him on on is basically is basic. Epistemology is
basic way of discovering knowledge and what knowledge is. Ultimately,
he's a collectivist and an altruist, and his perception of
the nature of man is wrong, and in politics he's awful,
and on technology is awful. He's a pessimist. And yeah,

(01:40:21):
so I'm pretty much everything. You know, we would disagree
and it would be debatable. Yeah, maybe we can make
that happen one day. All right, these are all twenty
dollars questions, Thank you guys. Let's start with Mike. Mike says,
how likely is it that the millions of fans that

(01:40:43):
Carson influentas allegedly have actually like live in other countries.
I hate to think so many Americans are that an American.
I'm not an ex you know, it's hard to tell.
I'm sure a lot of them are. But at the
end of the day, I think a lot of them
are Americans. I think it is an American phenomena. The
alt right, the new Right is primarily an American phenomena.

(01:41:05):
And I think they really are this. Many Americans are this,
and they're young, and many of them sit in their
mother's basements, and many of them are what are called
in cells, alienated from the female, from females, and you
know they are they are, you know, losers. It's a

(01:41:25):
it's a Now. Tucker has a broader audience that he's
brought with him over his many years in Fox and
other places to the podcast, and he slowly brainwashed him
into this complete and utter nonsense. But I think I
think most of them Americans, not all, but most of

(01:41:45):
them are. And look, not everybody who listens to them
agrees with them, But why would you listen if you
hated everything they say? Which is what? Which is the
healthy response? Ointvent from no Timothy Chalomay is at it again,
starting in a movie, Marty Supreme, coming out this Christmas.

(01:42:11):
The movie is about individualism, just a movie is about
individualism and ambition. Hope they depict it as virtues. The
trailer contains banger quotes such as, I live with the
confidence that I believe in myself and the money will follow.

(01:42:31):
I'm gonna step up in ways you can't even imagine.
This is another quote from the movie. You want to
get physical like an ape. Very much looking forward to it. Yeah,
I mean I like him as an actor. I like
it very much as an actor, so it definitely should
be interesting. What was it was the movie that he

(01:42:53):
started recently that was really good? That yeah, I can't remember,
but the name of the movie, but that he was
there was really good in anyway. Yeah, I like him
as an actor, and that sounds promising, So I hope

(01:43:15):
it's good. We'll wait and see. What's it called again?
You said it was called Marty Supreme. Marty Supreme. He
start in Dune. He was really good in Dune. But no,
something else that I'm thinking of, and I can't, I can't.
I saw a movie of it's called The King, which

(01:43:35):
was a movie about Henry Henry the Fifth kind of
loosely based on the Shakespearean play, but not exactly with
a twist at the end. Anyway, We'll have to We'll
have to see Marty Supreme soon, all right, Thomas. Given

(01:43:56):
that the government owns roads and controls driver's license, would
they come a point with the growth of Wei MO,
with the safety record you detailed yesterday, that human human
driven cause could become illegal? Ooh, I doubt it, but

(01:44:17):
certainly not in my lifetime. Maybe in the distant future
in an authoritarian state. Yeah, but I think that would
be quite authoritarian, and I would it would be, Yeah,
it would be. Yeah, I'm not sure so, but I
don't think in my lifetime. I don't think we're going

(01:44:38):
to get to that point. I don't think Americans would tolerate.
Was still still too much of our people who love
our cause and love driving. Chabot I want to putin
is a risk board game fan. Gaining new territory is
super easy in the game, and his subordinates let him win.
Of course, he might have expected actual mi lative action

(01:45:00):
to be no different. Yeah, I don't know far as
I've gotten in terms of games as Monopoly. That's that's
about it for me. But maybe he does play risk.
Chaza says, I just finished watching Chernovo. Have you seen it.
It's astonishing what happened there before, during, and after the disaster,

(01:45:22):
assuming that is an accurate representation. Yeah, I've watched it.
It's excellent. It's very well made. It brings out the
irrationality of communism. It clearly shows the responsibility the communist
mentality had for the Chernobyl accident and in dealing with
it and the failure over and over again. It shows

(01:45:46):
how the communist system, you know, incentivizes Reward's secondhandedness, unthinking.
It's really well concretized, really well done, so highly we
can watching Chernobyl. Whether it's accurate to the fact of
what happened or not, it's really good. It's really well done.

(01:46:11):
Hop A Campbell Part one. That's the fact that Nick
Foyintis has millions of subscribers and you only have forty
thousand suggest the collapse of civilization is drastically gaining momentum,
or perhaps only a momentary nihilistic bubble that will burst,
and how slow and steady objectives train will ultimately win

(01:46:34):
and race before things collapse. I mean, I don't know,
but the fact that he has millions of adherents he's entertaining.
There is clearly a nihilistic streak in young people right now.
They are looking, they are searching, and I don't think,

(01:46:55):
you know, I hope I'm not overly optimistic, But I
don't think that his popularity is sustainable. I think he's
probably reaching peak influence and you know, peak followers. We'll
see I think we keep chugging along. I just don't

(01:47:16):
see him. I think he still represents a marginal, marginal
group within society. It might be millions, but the millions
of losers. My forty thousand people a good good people
and successful people, you know, competent people. People are striving

(01:47:41):
to make something of their lives. I don't think you
have a bunch of losers like his audience. If I
thought you were, I wouldn't do the show. So I
think very different type of people. Lincoln. Do you think

(01:48:02):
objectivism will be applied in Europe or America? First, the
US is more free market postal liberties, but Europe is
more secular and have a slow growth, which could make
them open to the philosophy of objectivism, so I can
see the argument for it happening in either place. I
don't know. I don't know, and it's still so far

(01:48:24):
into the future I don't know that we can tell.
Europe is also heading towards authoritarianism. How it comes out
of that authoritarianism. Who knows, it might also becoming more religious.
It's hard for me to tell. So I really don't
know who's gonna get it first. Maybe it'll be Argentina,
maybe it'll be somewhere else. Maybe to be somewhere in Asia. Unlikely,

(01:48:48):
but I just don't know. It's good, it's it's decades
in the future, and how these everything evolves in the
next few decades is really really hard to tell. Maybe
everybody in America will read my book with don and
reject their Christianity the book that's still coming. Unlikely, but
maybe Lincoln. I remember Melton Friedman saying in Free to Choose,

(01:49:21):
how wonderful the clothing sweat ups were by forcing his
mother to assimilate and taking personal responsibility in the days
before welfare. Absolutely absolutely, work is the number one way
in which people assimilate, and I think it's necessary and
countries that don't emphasize work. Are the countries that are

(01:49:41):
going to have the biggest problem with immigrants. It's why
people assimilate more in America than elsewhere because our office
state is less effective, less efficient, less robust, and people
up are required to work, and they assimilate whether they
want to or not. Yes, so Americans can. They have

(01:50:07):
free will, so they can definitely reject Christianity. America is
not a Christian country. Indeed, we argue in the book
that America is the anti Christian country. The America is
the is a country that stands as proof that you
can succeed in spite of Christianity, and that you can,
that you can. You know that to be successful you

(01:50:30):
have to in a sense reject the essence of Christianity.
And this is why, by the way, the New Rights
which is big on Christianity, has to reject the Founders
and reject the Declaration of Independence, because that the Founders

(01:50:50):
and the Declaration of Dependence are anti Christian in the
way that Christians understand it today, and the anti collectivism
and tribalism, so they're anti Then you write, that's why
the Right has to reject the Founders if they want
to keep their Christianity. Lincoln, I remember using my Asperger's

(01:51:12):
syndrome diagnosis to get extra time on AP and SATs.
I was not traditionally disabled, but I took advantage of
the loophole. And I was far from the only one
who did this. There was a kid who had an
IQ above one sixty and was mentally disabled. My AQU
was also very high. It played a big role in

(01:51:34):
the two of us getting into prestigious colleges since being
upper middle class white males, we weren't going to get
in on AA. I got into Santa CLA's Business school
and he got into produced engineering program, all thanks to
the disability classification helping us. Yeah, I get it, but

(01:51:57):
there's something just weird about that and about you know,
now everybody has it. You've created a huge incentive for
people to embrace the disability category. I mean, you guys
are smart. Being smart is not a disability. How much

(01:52:18):
longer should the war in Ukraine? Go? Well, I'd say
two things. As long as Ukraine is willing to fight
it and as long as Russia doesn't surrender, that's it.
I mean, there's no timeline. Ukraine is the one suffering.

(01:52:39):
Ukraine is the one fighting for their liberty, fighting for
their land, fighting for their sovereignty, fighting for their future,
fighting for their children, fighting for their families. Ukraine therefore
gets to say when they want to stop fighting and
we should support them because Russia is the bad guy,

(01:53:00):
and because Russia is a threat to the West, which
includes US. Ukraine is led by Zelensky. He is very popular,
still popular within Ukraine. If there were elections tomorrow, he
would probably win, and even if he didn't, the opposition

(01:53:21):
party which would run against him is for the war.
So there's no significant political force in Ukraine that is
against the war. So to claim that this is Zelensky's
war is again completely detached from reality, from the facts

(01:53:45):
on the ground. It is buying into Russian propaganda. Russian
bots feeding your propaganda online. I mean, I get it,
the Trump buys into that propaganda. You the listeners to
the one book show, shouldn't buy into that. Pup again, Lincoln,
the activists are trying to get people to not watch

(01:54:07):
Netflix show Stranger Things. The reason one of the main
characters is design is jew. Wow. That is pretty nuts.
I didn't realize that there was asignist jew on Stranger
things I watched the most, I think the whole first season.
I couldn't get into it. It just wasn't that interesting
to me. Jason estimate, estimate what we spend a military

(01:54:32):
basis overseas, and if and if how we could conceptualize
money for Israel or good allies as a formal valuable ASCID. Yeah,
I think that's right. Being the troops home, shut down
the bases, and to help those allies that they need

(01:54:52):
our help and be provide us with real value as allies.
That would be much cheaper. Seventeen seventy six says thank
you for membership, gift my pleasure. Thank you and join
us for the membership shows. Jamie from Canada, how you

(01:55:13):
on what would be the cost to get to review
a YouTube video that is criticizing econ one oh one
that's approximately forty five minutes long? Oh god, it's long?
And do I how do I set that up? Just
send link an amount here. You can do a linking

(01:55:34):
amount here or you can do it through PayPal. Either way,
forty five minutes long. God, I mean, my holy eight
is five hundred bucks. So let's say you know, three
hundred dollars for the forty five minute video. Yeah, I

(01:55:55):
think that's right because TV. Yeah, actually, yeah, two fifty
I do two fifty four episodes of shows which are
about forty five minutes long. So two fifty, two hundred
fifty dollars and send me the link. Forty five minutes
video is going to be hard a critique though, because
I can't. I mean, I'll watch it and then give

(01:56:17):
you I'll give you a summary critique of it. Thomas
schubout him. Are you familiar with the writings of Hoover
Scalar Stephen Koken, Yes, an historian gigantic three volume biography
of Stalin. Yes, I haven't read it, but I've seen it.
He lectures and geopolitics, very anti communist, don't always agree,
but a real intellectual. Yeah, he's kind of left of Senna.

(01:56:38):
I've seen him speak a number of times. He's smart, thoughtful,
a good guy, and very good on Stalin and very
anti communist. All right, we just shot fifty bucks for
the well. Actually, now we're only short thirty dollars for
the second hour goal, and we're we're three minutes away
from the second hour, so it'd be great if somebody

(01:57:00):
came in with thirty bucks, thirty buck question, thirty bucks sticker,
and we're done. Novel recommendations. The Second Sleep by Robert
Harris lights spoil up. The book makes you think it
takes place in the dark Ages, but you discover that
it's the future. Civilization has regressed because of Christian forces

(01:57:22):
gain control. Again. Well, that sounds like a good book
for me to read, I mean, or maybe listen to.
All right, thank you jjjigbees for the recommendation thirty bucks. Guys,
somebody coming in with thirty bucks and get us to
the target. Can you discuss the tpsukay student who had

(01:57:45):
her professor placed on leave after she was failed for
making faith based arguments in a science class. I'm not
sure if you've seen this, but the suspension is manifestly unjust. Absolutely,
I mean, I think it's absolutely right for the professor

(01:58:05):
to fail the student for making faith based arguments in
a science class. Science class is about science, not about faith. Indeed,
it is about making science based argument, and by making
a faith based argument, you should fail a science class.
So good for the professor, and it's tragic that he
is that he's that the professor's being suspended, I mean,

(01:58:31):
this is the Christianization of our culture. And Christianization is
not a good thing. Not a good thing. Bad things happen.
Christianity is a force for ill, not a force for good.
It's a force that leads us towards destruction, not towards

(01:58:52):
growth and progress. Thought criminal. Thank you for the sticker.
Now we're only twenty dollars away, or actually less than
twenty dollars, seventeen dollars away, because that was ten dollars,
ten pounds, seventeen dollars away from the five hundred dollars goal.
So please consider jumping in. We're seventeen dollars and getting

(01:59:14):
us over the threshold. America is not going to reject
Christianity anytime soon, but certainly can. There's a difference between
can and will? Will it? No? Can it? Yes? All right, guys,
I didn't see that story. I'll have to look it up.
Thank you Eric for pointing it out to me. Thank

(01:59:37):
you Eddie for the five dollars sticker. We're chipping away
at this goal. Should it just stay up here and
till you guys do enough stickers to get us through this? So, oh,
there it is. Richard just got us over the threshold.
Thank you Richard twenty dollars sticker. I appreciate it. Thank
you guys. Thanks all the superchatters. Don't forget Patreon dot com.

(02:00:01):
You on books show. I will see you tomorrow, probably
at the regular time. Uh, today was a doctor thing. No, yeah,
it was a doctor thing. I'll see you tomorrow and
Friday and Saturday. Have a great rest of your week.
See you guys. Bye.
