Speaker 1 (00:00):
Our foundering fathers here in this country, brought about the
only true revolution that has ever taken place in man's history.
Evolve the idea that you and I have within ourselves,
the god given right and the ability to determine our
own destiny.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
The United States of America the greatest nation in history,
ordained by our founders to be guided by divine providence,
but today we are witnessing the orchestrated disintegration of America.
Take a few seconds and take a look around your town,
your state, look at your country and your world, and

(00:39):
boldly ask what in the hell is going on?

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it on to our children in the bloodstream.
The only way they can inherit the freedom we have
known is if we fight for it, protect it, defend it,
and then hand it to them with the well taught
lessons of how they in their lifetime. Let's do the same.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Welcome to the podcast Project Third I opened, where we
dare to question with boldness the events that are unfolding
around us that others won't. At the end of the day,
it is we the people who will decide the destiny
of the nation. Now introducing your host Tony El.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
Gritins, Gritains three teens and after how the hell is
everyone doing? This is not a fantastic pregentation of project
that I open and this is Tony l Like always,
I always want to start off by giving lesson happiness

(01:52):
to all and I want to always give thanks to
the most high. But without him, just take you some
start here. Without him, I will not be here. And
I want to have been born in British country on
the planet. And you gotta be listening to me. These

(02:14):
are very very challenging times, fantastic times the best times
though it may not seem that way, but it truly is.
I am going to continue impregetation that we started last

(02:41):
week regards to use two radicals and I want to
hold on. Let me go back out a whole moment,
get this right moment to share you how I believe

(03:04):
that this is one of the most prolific books regards
to politics ever. Ever, at the same it's all about
how politics are used to alter people's way of thinking,

(03:33):
after their perception any ways, alter their reality, and I
want to I want to share a little bit about
the first installment for those who haven't seen it. If
you haven't, definitely want to appreciate you going back and
seeing it and watching it. Listen to it sorta Lynskey

(04:04):
tutor Barack Obama, let that sink in their past cross
in Chicago. When you look, you go back and you

(04:24):
replayed Barack Obama's mannerism, his his agenda, how he laid
it out, how he said that they were on the
eve of fundamentally transforming this country. This is the way
he's basing that. That that on and I have to say,
he's done just that. Eight years of him, four years

(04:49):
of Biden, Hillary Clinton almost becoming a president, and and
then you had the alcolytes below them through our government,
particularly on the left, some on the right. And then

(05:14):
you look at how the right had to respond and
continues to have to respond because these tactics have not
been presented in the light for all to see. Let
that go it around in your head. It's like having termites,

(05:41):
and though you may see them maybe in the springs warming,
then they disappear and you think they're gone. And you
never had an inspector to come out and inspect your foundation,
and you believe that your foundation is sound just doing

(06:05):
bottom to light the real infestation that that that is
going on beneath your feet and around you. That is
what the twelve rules of Radicals represent to our nation.

(06:26):
And I ended, I ended with three. You're gonna do
all twelve, but I'm only gonna do three at a
time because i want y'all to get a real, real
big bite of this, and I want you all to understand,
and I want to go into it and add my viewpoint,

(06:47):
and I don't want to rush it. So I think
it's best that I do do it this way so
y'all get a full grasp of what we're dealing with here.
So we four Rule four. Make the enemy live up
to its own book or rules. Example, if the rules,

(07:13):
if the rule is for every letter get a reply,
send thirty thousand letters, basically overwhelm the system, their system.
And we could go back to Cloud's pivots. These people

(07:34):
all eat eat from the same chrough, Olenski, Clouds pivots
all eat from the same trough, Karl Marx. All haters

(07:54):
are free minded individuals, All haters of the apple this system,
all lovers of top down government institutions, all lovers of
people who do not want to think from the sales.

(08:19):
They all eat from the same troth. And this is
what people refer to it. It's not a physical battle
that we are involved in. We are involved in a
spiritual battle on the on the galactic stage, good was evil.

(08:39):
Whether you want to talk about the X Men, whether
you want to talk about Star Trek or plethora of
other other presentations that have been brought to us in
the form of entertainment. Ready you want to look at

(09:03):
the terminator. Wait, talking about flesh and blood versus machine,
the devil versus God, or again, it's basic good versus evil.

(09:26):
This is what we are involved in right now. And
it's not about law. It's not about necessarily right and wrong.
It's whose will, Whose will it's going to triumph over

(09:46):
the other? What philosophy all you all belief? Are you
willing to stand up for and die for people on
the on the those who are my humble opinion, those

(10:09):
who are on the demonic side, who are and es
it's already dead spiritually. They don't mind dying for their cars.
I'm not saying that we just join them.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Don't.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
Don't get me wrong, But those who don't see any
wrong in what they're doing. Their bounds are endless. So
that's one thing that we have to come to grips

(10:47):
with when you look at the the demonic things that
that are current on the left, and that they are professing,
and that they are enabling, and that they are themselves
prophetizing this man and those like him Obama Biden. Their

(11:18):
view of righteousness and rightness is vocally skewed, and many
of us on on the on the on the on
the side of Christian thum, we have a hard time
in believing that people will go through that because we

(11:41):
don't see ourselves doing that. That's not how we are raised,
that's not how we that's not what holds us together,
but nothing else. We need to understand our enemy so
we won't be so surprised by the things that they do,
and we may be more prepared, hopefully to react accordingly,

(12:05):
maybe not in the same way, but to react, not
just lay and take it. So here we go goes
on to say that this is a serious rule that
presees entities very credibility. Credibility and reputation is at stake

(12:28):
because if activists catch it lying or not living up
to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at
the damage again, and you will see this as a
technique that repeats itself. It goes from our attaches, from

(12:50):
our blind side, to challenge what we believe, what our
will is, what are we willing to do to protect
our ground? And unfortunately we give up our ground and
we show our wheel is not strong, not strong as theirs,
and so therefore they able to push us from where

(13:13):
we stand because we don't defend it. I remind people,
I don't mean to get too far off off off topic.
I remind people that the Confederate battle flag was just that,
a Confederate Confederate battle flag until it started to show

(13:34):
up during periods of lyncheens and other atrocities. That's on
what put it. Then it became attached to those atrocities
to the point that what it was originally designed for
it's no longer relevant or even even recognized. Never mind

(13:59):
the fact that at many times, if at least, these
stars and strikes were present at mentions and periods of atrocities.
But there's no dis honor of shame showing oh glory.

(14:21):
And I'm not saying that it should be. I'm just saying,
if we're gonna be equally balanced. We need to be
equally balanced, or don't do it at all. But history
tells don't lie that. If we don't know history, then
we don't know how to recognize true wrong or imbalanced.
If that makes sense. So how that Barack Obama And

(14:50):
if y'all don't remember, I'm comparing Barack Obama uses of
rules rules for radicals, Biden and Trump. So Barack us
will Ford and holding Republicans to their bipartisanship promises, and

(15:13):
Zample exposing Republican obstructionism on healthcare during his own promass run.
And this had to do with of course.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
A c H.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Just all the Republicans. Republicans campaign by partisanship, relationship, responsible government, governance,
and working across the ours fairness corporation. Who who don't
want that in the organization? Right? You want people to
get along, we won't want people people to communicate. Remember

(15:52):
even doing Ronald Reagan Reagan and Chip O'Neill Democrat, Liberal
House speaker, both Irish, they got along happened, Emson Emsonly
they even had beers after having drag out fights rebally

(16:15):
speaking in regards to their their political views. That's where
it used to be so when Barack Obama. When Barack
Obama pushed the Affordable Cares Act, he publicly invited Republicans

(16:38):
to negotiate, holding holding summits and televiights meetings. Republicans, on
the other hand, said, nah, we ain't doing it because
we see a trap. But that allowed Obama to say

(16:58):
that they're being hypocrites by rejecting his offer. By partisanship,
Democrats didn't argue. They said, they want to fix healthcare,
but the Republicans refuse to engage. They claim to work

(17:21):
for the American people. Yeah, the Republicans. This would refer
to Republicans. They claim to work for the American people,
yet they won't negotiate with us. This put you Republicans
in the lose lose situations. Why because they refuse to

(17:42):
defend their ground to make their will, if nothing else,
compare comparatively the same strength as as the Democrats to
present their position, articulate their position, because you're right is

(18:08):
always going to outside wrong, but you got to present
right in the articical fashion. But anybody can understand.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
So.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
Obama was successful in userble before by forcing Republicans who
live up to their own rh rhetoric or by particians,
by partiticians, by partisanship, Obama's team waken their credibility because
they did not stand on their ground. They not articulate

(18:45):
their position, They did not seek to defend their position
to show that they have a stronger will who defend
their position. They receive it from them and so rendered it.
What a Biden do? Bidying being a follower and being

(19:11):
up in Obama for eight years plus. He used it
to hold Republicans to their law and order rhetoric example
January sixth and Republican accountability. How did he do this?

(19:33):
Says Republicans, who historically positioned themselves as a party of
law and order, condemning the riots and civil unrest Black
lives matter in twenty twenty, after the January sixth Capital riots,
Biden's administration, Democrats use the rhetoric against use that rhetica

(19:55):
rhetoric against them, saying that you say you stand for
law and or though, yet you defend the rioters. You
claim to back the police, yet officers were attacked that day,
and this is all bs easily refuted. Republicans choose not

(20:15):
to even really strongly refuted one as as came out
since and even doing the so called congressional hearings, many
people entered the Capitol because they really didn't know what

(20:37):
was really going on. They wanted a riot. The hundreds
of people got arrested through Biden's police state, larger on
trumped up charges that's emotional, were pardoned by now President
Trump rightfully, so they should never have been a political

(21:01):
prisoner during the years of biding, and good thing that
uh Camilla didn't get the seat because she would more
than likely continue their incarceervration unlawfully. Secondly, no police were

(21:25):
killed by the so called rioters. I'm not saying that
there was some injured, because when a person is attacked
just for standing there and not really knowing why, emotions
run high. But there's one put a writer who was

(21:51):
killed with Ashley Babbitt. No one wants to talk about her,
though I guess she don't count. Side of that, no
one was killed that day other than Ashley babbit Those
are the facts. Republications could have easily explained that at

(22:15):
least attempted to and in spite of the Democrats circus,
and it's the reason why many of them who who
had a hand in that so called a gradumen hearing,
Biden gave preactive pardons. Why did you do that? If

(22:40):
they were innocent, just doing a job. Many of the
transcripts from that has been destroyed. From what I hear,
why would they do that? The Republicans chose not to fight,

(23:12):
so they gave the ground to the Democrats. This forced
many Republicans into a difficult position. Condemned the riot, Condemned
the riot were anger debates. Of course, there was more.
It was a record number of people to go to

(23:32):
the grounds to listen to Trump that they than hardly ever,
there's not been a just a testament of just how
massive the crowd was that day, how many people came

(23:52):
from all over the world seeking justice for one and
secondly to hear their president. Nobody's talking about that. This
wasn't just like a couple hundred people. This was thousands
of people to hear the president of the United States

(24:13):
at that time, still in the dead of winter. Do
you think anybody would want to do that for Biden?
You think anybody would want to do that for Obama
in the dead of winter on their own dying. We don't.

(24:44):
Nobody wants to talk about that there. This was not
a Friends element on the right that was in attendance
that day. There's a Frinds element on the left that
was there that day, but no one wants to talk
about that. The result in the Republicans not standing their

(25:08):
ground was the eternal Republican dimension and lost of credibility
of moderates. Commanderates want people to take a position, let
us hear your side so we're able to make a decision. Again,
no wars have ever been won by moderates. Keep that

(25:33):
in mind. No statues anywhere is to celebrate the person
who's a moderate. Either a person was on the left
or on the right. They were on the bad side.
They're on the good side. But they took a position.
They took a position. They stood on the ground that

(25:56):
they thought was just. You ain't gotta agree with it,
but they still on the ground that they thought was just.
That's why they all remember today, twenty thirty forty fifty,
one hundred years after their passing physical passion, not one
moderate has been bestowed. That never will be. But yet

(26:22):
they supposed to be hold so much power in regards
to politics, but they really don't. Most so called moderates
are conservative. That's why liberals have to lie to them
so much and hire their true intentions. This world benefited

(26:47):
Biden by forcing the Republicans who live up to their
own law and order rhetoric and keep using that word rhetoric,
think about that rhetoric teams. Buding's team is those pocricy
because they did not stand on their beliefs. Person who

(27:09):
stands don't believe? Can they be called a hypocrite? Never?
But if we don't, then that becomes a you problem.
So how did Trump use, or for using, the media
stand up against them? Recognizing fairness in the media coverage,

(27:37):
the mainstream media claims that it follows neutrality. At the
time they claimed this objectivity and fairness im important, Trump
called bis on that rightfully. So Trump exploited this by
constantly attacking the media, knowing they would been over backwards
to prove they want. This led to media outlets covering

(28:04):
Trump excessively. Even negative crepas gave him more attention. Network
platform networks platform and Trump serve against like Killer and Conway,
forcing them to give airtime to his talking points, over
reaction by journalists making them appear emotional and party system

(28:30):
further validating Trump's fake newest claims. And you see that
they that even the media is even more zimplifying their partisanship,
like they don't even carry themore. Trump just made them
go cuckool because they never been chatted like that before.

(28:53):
By holding the media to their own standards affair and this,
Trump's campaign forced them to engage even when it helped him.
This benefit of Trump using rules of Radical number two,
his team knew the media would struggle to ignore a

(29:15):
major political figure, forcing them to cover him even when
it played into his hands. Again, you need to understand
and recognize the difference in application of rules of radical tactics.
The left use it to severely damage the enemy, whoever

(29:38):
it may be, and to weaken the country. Trump and conservatives,
for the most part, used these techniques to defend themselves
and to make the country better. You always see this

(30:01):
thread throughout us so radicals and the applications by the
left and by the right. Rule number five, ridicule is
man's most potent weapon. This whole emphasides is mockery as

(30:22):
a political weapon. It it's in fact, it's effective. It's
effective because it's emotional, difficult to counter and makes opponents
appear weak, foolish, or illegitimate. How the Obama do this?

(30:46):
He used ridicol the Tea Party as extremism, marking the
Tea Party and birthism and is for US administration? What
is birth thriism? Birth toroism comes from the fact that

(31:07):
if y'all don't if y'all remember or don't remember, Trump
said that clan that Obama's FIR certificate that he presented,
supposed to be from the state of Hawaii was a forgery.
London say, a forgery wasn't truth truthful, and in reality

(31:35):
he was right. But to the masses that the uneducated masses,
Obama was allowed to turn his art into a joke.
But if y'all know, Barack Obama's birth name wasn't Barack Obama.

(31:56):
It was Harry, Yes, Harry, but that was not the
name or his certificate, and it is supposed to be
the long form original birth certificate. It wasn't Harry. Nor

(32:20):
do I think it said he was born outside of
the United States, because either I think he's from India
or maybe wrong on that, but because he had he
had two fathers, one birth of all the one adopted father.

(32:42):
But any regard either regard any regard that's not what
that but certificate show. So he was able to flip
this and make Trump like he's They did this because

(33:07):
people don't read. And the fact that media was back
in his position against Trump. Let's see okay, okayeah, So

(33:39):
that the Tea Party movement, which which emerged in O nine,
framed itself as a serious grass roof movement against big
government rather than engaging in direct policy battles. Again, they
left can never attack from direct or directly in front

(34:01):
of you. They got to go from behind and from
the side. They can never attack directly. So and not
attacking directly both Obama's team marked them moves as extream elements,
making them appear that being no publicans, irrational and friends.

(34:24):
At the twenty eleven White House correspondence dinner, Obama pubectly
ridiculed Truant's birth claims, shown his long form long form
but certificate, and joking that he had a live birth video. Again,
he did this at a correspondence dinner, not at a

(34:48):
congratsulate hearing, not under oath. He did this for public dispay,
to get the media, of course, and get public appear
union on his side. This infuriated Trump and made the
birth of movement look ridiculous, this couraging mainstream conservatives from

(35:10):
embracing it again. If you don't stand your ground, you're
gonna be pushed off it. And this is a lesson.
For whatever reason, Republicans just refused to consume Democrat Party

(35:31):
and media portrayed the Tea Party rallies as extreme, racist
and conspiracy driven weakening. There brought up pill that means
to republican Republican side, and the Tea Party is all
about one bringing politicists local and holding the government that

(35:56):
was going on, the spending bends with Obama older than
them accountable. That's all. That's all. That's all, that's it,
That's that's all the people wanted. And they were called
the stream. It's interesting anything that that that the left
proceeds as Americanism standing on traditional American values limited government,

(36:25):
particularly particularly the limited government. It des drives them after all,
and we gotta be the bad guy the streamment. Still,
the emotional contexts, emotional at tax has to have to
be levied and levied like a bride of a tax

(36:51):
from I don't know, y'all, remember that that movie and
Brave heart. Yes, that that dapper rods when all the
hours were coming down in the field with the set
of blades. Yeah, that's serious. This work. By mocking the

(37:19):
by making and the degenimizing the Tea Party and butherism,
Obama's team waking the republicans credibility rather than engaging the
Republicans in the serious debate. You will see that they
never want to engage in the serious debate. They're always
gonna make it personal, they always gonna make it emotional.

(37:44):
They never wanted to do it this man and man,
I can't do it. I won't do it. I can't
do it. It's like it's supposed to Dracula to to
to gard it. It's just it's like a workout. Well
horr and they know it. Biden used number of number

(38:08):
five by mocking again marcking maga as being ultomaga and
attack trumpsm using automaga as a as a ridicule strategy.
This is not just a regular maga, this is ultomaga.
Instead of debating trumpetsm directly again, won't do it. Bien's

(38:31):
team marked extreme elements, using the term ultomagam maga to
make it sound radical and unserious Biden's Biden called Trumpism
semi fascist. Res triggered outrage but also forced Republicans to
defend their movement in a couple of ways. How can

(38:56):
Trump and what he attempted to do in his first
term and what he attempts he's attempting to do now
in is I guess second full term as fascist? When
you look at what Obama did and what Biden did,
and you could definitely label them as fascist or the

(39:24):
party and as a whole. It's fascinating to me, to
me that no one is reporting on the connection between
the Democrat Party and communists. They don't hide it. In
many Democrat Party particular natural rallies, it's always a US

(39:51):
Communist Party flag. It's always and there's always a socialist flag,
Socialist party flag. Again. They they they're the ones who
have a party called the Socialist Democrat Party. You don't

(40:12):
see a socialist Republican party. You don't see the US
Communist Party flag. The out scene out the publican reality.
I know that publicans know that. Why don't they say

(40:37):
when they ever faced with being called what the Democrats are?
They just don't For whatever reason, I don't know what
it is. They just don't, so they get hammered by lies.

(41:01):
The liberal media and late night hosts relentlessly mock election
deniers and Trump and Trump's legal troubles, further eroding public
trust in MAGA aligned candidates. In regards to so called
election deniers, it's my opinion that the election once the

(41:32):
once the world got out that things weren't quite kosher
to put up wildly like so that that there was
some weird stuff that happened that night, like insplicably votes.
This stop can't count it. Oh, and the Democrats strong holds,

(41:56):
I'll go to bed. Trump is in the league. I
wake up. He's not only behind, he's lost already. What
in order to ensure the public that the election was
up and up, that election should have been paused in

(42:18):
a full, thorough federal investigation should have been held, even
if they had to appoint an independent counsel to make
sure that you know, it wasn't any view of Trump
tipping the scales. Something should have happened other than nothing

(42:42):
in the just for the fact of fairness or the
real true perception of fairness. That should have been done,
But it wasn't. It wasn't again, Republicans this did not

(43:03):
want to stand on the ground, so Biden was successful
in using this by Trumpeanism as extreme and un serious.
Biden's team we can Trump's appeal among moderates and the
independence Again moneris independence are not that moderate if you

(43:24):
look at the what they value. Their conservative the left
are the two minority. It's just that they are able

(43:45):
to appeal to moderates because Republicans flaccidness politically speaking. That's
why America is overall a conservative country. But we gotta
have we gotta have a champion. Trump is that champion now.

(44:08):
But what about when after he's gone? That's the question.
Trump used number four by using ridicule, using nicknames, using
using media trolling like Crooker, Hillaries, Sleepy Joe, and insults politics.

(44:34):
Trump's most famous with the Total Code strategy was assigning
the meaning nicknames to his opponents Crooker, Hillary, Sleepy Joe, lying,
Ted Uh, Little Marco was interestingly enough, like little little
marcro is not a secretary of State under Trump's administration.

(44:54):
Nothing personal. These insults stuck in people's minds, aping public
perception and making his opponents appear weak and untrustworthy, meaning
outlets covered these attacks endlessly and reinforcing them instead of
debunking them again. Accusation, un rebutted stance of truth dis

(45:25):
forced opponents to and to reaching emotionally. Reacting emotionally rather
than focusing on policy debates just helped Trump and his
relentless ridicule of opponents made it difficult for them to

(45:47):
appear strong or credible, weakening their their campaigns again. They
just didn't know how to fight back or refuse to
fight back. Talk got small hands from what I understand,

(46:08):
And isn't that a good comeback? I mean, it's it's
kind of people standing back in the day. But if
you just standing around, I do mama jokes. Yeah, of
course the adam is fun these days probably get you killed.
But insults or insults six sticks and stones, right, I

(46:30):
guess not number six. A good tactic is one your
people enjoy. They'll keep doing it without arguering and come
back to do more. They're doing this thing that they're
doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones. Radical

(46:55):
activists in this sense are no different than any other
human beings. We all avoid unfund activities, and but we
revealed at, we reveal at and enjoy the ones that
work and bring results. Human nature. We don't like pain,

(47:22):
we don't like being in an uncomfortable position. It's human nature.
We all want, we want, We all want to be pleased,
we all want pleasure. We all want happy life. But
when you're in war, it's your job to make your

(47:46):
opponent it's uncomfortable, unhappy, that's possible. How do Obama do this? Oh?
Bye much? Administration? Use social media, activism and celebrity engagement.
Hope and change mean culture, hope and change. If y'all

(48:12):
read thoroughly Sololenski, you will see hope and change being
one of his talking points. Can't make the ship up, y'all,
can't make this ship up? Hope and change. Obama's campaign

(48:35):
and administration masters social media early, making a political engagement fun,
cool and viral. His twenty eighth slug and Hope and
Change became a mean art piece and cultural movement, making
supporters feel part of something bigger. Oh but make America

(48:59):
greater game and it's the devil reincarnated. Y'all Make this
make sense, y'all. Y'all, y'all, make this makes sense. If
any conservative would would have blaid a hand on anybody

(49:21):
wearing a Hope and Hope and Change but rocket t shirt,
they will be and put in federal prison. But yet
people all over the country will beat over the head
if they were there even even now, refuse service out
of coffee diner if they dare wear a red cap

(49:44):
with make America, Make America, make America HM great again.
It's bad. Psychology is a wonderful thing, y'all. It's a
dangerous thing if you don't understand when it's being applied

(50:07):
against you to your detriment as a weapon. And that's
what who's for radicals It's all about. At the end
of the day, That's what it's all about. Celebrities enthusiastically
endorsed and promoted him or or Beyonce will i Ams

(50:31):
Yes we Can video In the twenty twelve election, UH
was created fund shareable tactics like the Bird the Big
Bird mean mocking mc romney for wanting to defront PBS. Oh,
by the way, BBS is on the topping block. But

(50:54):
like they never Biden's full or Woman's joke, the Womny's
debate gaft, the Abamacare is cool messaging with celebrities like
Jack Color factis color fact Nichoas that's the guy from Hangover.

(51:18):
If you're the only member, he's a fact chubby cap
with the heavy face interviewing Obamas. Of course I didn't
see this interview. And this worked because these supporters love
engaging in these tactics, making them go viral without much
promoting social media. Of course, at the time, we're at Twitter,

(51:45):
which is very liberal, and then you had, of course
on YouTube, which is very liberal, all pushing Obama's agenda
and these means the cool factor made young voters decided
to putarticipate political Messagine became entertainment, not just dry policy talk.

(52:09):
It's entertainment, nothing real about it. It's entertainment. Taking to
the young people. It was cool. It's like the true
useful idiots. They didn't care what was behind the messaging.
They just saw that they were able to eat cake

(52:31):
for breakfast. That's that's what they cared about. Not only
what they allowed to eat cake for breakfast, but they
were able to eat cake for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Have at it. It's good for you. Don't worry about
don't worry about the calories or the fat or any

(52:52):
of the other past stuff that will come afterwards, like death.
It's oth fron today, it's all about It's all about
the day. How to Biden use number six again satirizing

(53:15):
Maga streamis using dark branding Brandon, Dark Brandon the energized
to energize Democrats. I don't remember doc Doc Brandon, but anyway,

(53:39):
Biden's Biden's administration initially struggled with enthusiasm, but found a
fun viral tactic, Dark Brandon, a mean that flipped the
insult let's go branding into a pro Biden sample. Now remember,
let's go branding. I guess you gotta be different camps.

(54:00):
I don't know anything about doctor Brannon. Something that I
found out in my research about before I did never
heard of doctor Brandon. The Mean depicted Biden as a
powerful laser eye figure defeating Maga extreamists. I can't anybody

(54:20):
imagine Biden is powerful like a superhero. I mean, you
gotta have a really, really, really good imagination for that.
Maybe it's just me, somebody who was cut into the
challenge coignitic challenge from before he entered the Pendency office.
In his eyes, young democrats are going for the young,

(54:42):
young people who he saw Biden as boring. This tone,
Biden's image and from dog put politician into unexpected badass,
at least in mean culture. Maybe believe uh, this work
because Democrats enjoyed the mean battle, making it fun rather

(55:04):
than just policy heavy. Again okay for breakfast, let's have
fries and cars and fright food for dinner, lunch, no vegetbles. Right.
It flipped a mac of insult into an empower and
slogan for Biden. Reinvigorated parts of the Democratic base that

(55:29):
were disengaged. This turned Biden's image. Okay, okay, but this
did basically, I guess in liberal country just mean to
forget at how boring and ineffective Biden words. Again, nobody

(55:55):
was thrilled about this guy. No body was thrilled about
this guy. Remember those those images of his so called
political rallies that nobody was there. We remember that. Remember that,
And there was no energy behind him before he made

(56:16):
his exit the last time. There's no energy behind him. No,
he didn't. He didn't really deserve any enthusiasm. There's no
charisma there about him. He was ineffective, and he hurt

(56:39):
everybody politically, made a country a social basket case. Putting
them into the Americans in jail because just because of
different political beliefs, turning Americans against each other during COVID

(57:03):
for no real reason whatsoever, just because of different beliefs
and point of view, and trying to make us believe
that a woman could be a command What's what's deciting
about that? What's up that thing about that? Trump used

(57:25):
number six and mega rallies and online trolling MAGA rallies.

Speaker 1 (57:34):
Again.

Speaker 3 (57:34):
He had to come back Biden's mean warfare again, using
Solenti's tastics as a defense weapon, not an offensive weapon.
Trump supporters genuinely enjoyed his rallies. You can't state that

(57:55):
about any democratic rally. I mean, so you can say
Obama his first term, not so much a second term.
Definitely not Obama Biden in any in any like a manner.
But people will sleep out overnight in the cold, in

(58:18):
the rain, in the blistering heat to get this a
glimpse of Donald Trump. Then it's actual second second attempt
to repeat, and definitely in this this last last run,

(58:40):
genuinely like this man genuinely want to hear this man
has to say. Genuine genuine is the word Trump's online base,
especially on platforms like four Chan and Twitter, which is
now x embrace internet trolling as a political tool, creating

(59:03):
a viral. Creating a viral means Macan Democrats easy step, Joe,
Let's go Brandon spreading slogans like make a make a
greater Again, and build that wall, using humor and satire
to energize their base and inferior opponents. The fun, rebellious
and countercultural nature of MAGA made it self sustaining. This

(59:29):
worked for Trump because Trump's space loved his tactics, making
them eager to spread them. Mean warfare and ratits became
a movement people wanted to participate in again to counter
the extremists that they were already doing. But the right
is made to be the bad guy. Not just here

(59:51):
if he noticed, when you hear what's going on in
Europe and in Canada, the media made extreme right extreamists
the bad guy. Never hear anything about the extreme left,
always the extreme right. You think that's by accident or

(01:00:16):
do you think they got instruction from from up high
to level the right on both sides of the order Again,

(01:00:40):
sol Leni's tactics are not going anywhere, Not going anywhere,
until it's a light is shone on it, how divisive
it is, how destructive it is, and how they left

(01:01:00):
uses it to bludgeon its opponents, how the left use
it to destroy this country. If that was done, no
political field figure, particularly on the left, where they're use

(01:01:24):
this tactics again, because we were we will see it coming,
and we said no, no, no, no, truth. Truth. It
was truth, but all stars. When you're in war, when
you're on battlefield, where you are one of the teams

(01:01:52):
on the football field, baseball field, soccer field, basketball field court,
and you're facing your opponent, your objective is to make
them kneel, to impost your will on them, particularly football

(01:02:14):
or you want to say rugby, to make that other
person in front of you move in your direction against
their will. That's what Democrats do. That's the objective. The

(01:02:34):
trouble is not. The trouble is not what they do.
It's what the Republicans don't do. We don't have a true,
true opposition party. If you hear Republicans like John Lamberg
talk about communism, talk about the Democrats. When you listen

(01:02:55):
to Reagan talk about Democrats, he's going for blood. He
knows who the enemy is. He's calling the enemy his enemy.
That's how that's why he was so loved because moderists,
independence and conservatives loved that man because he spoke from

(01:03:18):
the heart. You didn't agree with him, but he told
you who the enemy was as he saw Rather be
the Russians, the Chinese, or the extreamius in Middle East,

(01:03:44):
or the democrats socialism. He told you those are the
enemies of all way of life. That he wasn't having it. Well,
you liked them or didn't. You could respect somebody who

(01:04:06):
tell you where they be, where where they stand, and
they're serious about it. You ain't gonna like them, but
you could respect them. That's number six. I would do
the next week our this installment, probably the same time,

(01:04:29):
at least by this time next week, so look for
that to then. Be blessed, be good, be free.
