Speaker 1 (00:04):
This is HBr News number five twenty six Scott Adams,
Secure Support, FBI Sports, Valentine's Massacre, where we discuss the
news of the week and give it the Badger treatment.
Hello everyone, and welcome back to Honey Badger Radio. My
name is Brian and I am here with Hannah Wallen

(00:27):
and Mike Stevenson. We hope you guys are enjoying this
week and that you're laughing at all this absurdity so
that you are not consumed by it. I'm just throwing
I'm just throwing at all the rules today. No, I'm
doing new intros. Whatever it is, change it up anyway. Yeah, so,
welcome to the news show. Today. We got a big show,

(00:50):
a really big shoe, a really big shoe for you guys.
On this week's HBr News, we're gonna be talking about
some recent news involving the cartoonist Scott Adams. You guys
remember that he received a basically a terminal cancer diagnosis
or seemingly terminal cancer diagnosis, and there have been some

(01:10):
developments that are worth looking into. There was a planned
Valentine's Day massacre that was intercepted by the FBI, A
new knife attack probably more since I even got this
story strikes in the UK and more so stick around.
It's going to be a good time.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
I can accomplish when they're not investigating people for making
comments on X about.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
The Yeah yeah, well there, yeah, the cops can't be
stopping knife crime. They're too busy answering, you know, going
to people's houses over tweets and be sure to join
us afterwards for the Patron Only show. So there was
this thing that happened on the Internet that kind of
blew it up where one Tucker Carlson, former far News

(02:00):
anchor turned sort of independent, had on the most censored
and banned person on the Internet, or at least one
of the most you know, it's hard to say. Sometimes
it's Alex Jones, sometimes it's Stefan Molnu, but for now
it's Nick Fuentes. And they were on there together discussing
all things, you know, topical that people generally discussed. But

(02:25):
the thing that seemed to really upset everyone was the
way that they talked about women. Because of course, like
when you remove everything else, all the geopolitics, all of
the stuff of foreign governments and all of the stuff
involving like immigration and the economy and home ownership and
you know all that it always comes back to women

(02:47):
and this is the the ultimate third rail and they
stepped on it. And this article Baptist News Global has
some thoughts on that. So we're gonna be talking about
that in Patron Show. And if you guys want to
join us on the Patron Show, you have to become

Badger dot com forward slash just the tip to send

(03:53):

you send and you'll be able to say whatever you want
without fear of reprisal from the powers that be. So
with all that out of the way, let us get
into today's stories, and I thank you for your time here.
All right, First we have Scott Adams. So this is

(04:13):
a short one, so deliberate creator Scott Adams. If you
guys don't know, he is dealing with advanced prostate cancer
and it was estimated that he wasn't going to make
it to the wintertime of this year according to him,
but he has made an appeal to President Donald Trump

(04:39):
on x on November two for any help expediting his
approved Pluvicto infusion for advanced prostate cancer, delayed by Kaiser
Permanente Northern California. Trump responded swiftly with on it, I'll
say it, on it, prompting ally including Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

(05:02):
Donald Trump Junior, and Mimic Oz as doctor Oz to assist,
resulting in Adams scheduling the treatment by November third, which
is yesterday. The rapid response highlighted xce's influence but also
sparked criticism over healthcare access, inequalities for average patients.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Well, yeah, there is. Yeah, Well, when people get cancer,
they will do anything to try and cure it. And tragically,
there are many people for whom anything they can do
is basically nothing because they can't afford anything. Whereas the
rich and famous, when they get cancer, we'll move heaven

(05:43):
and earth to stay alive. And well you know, that's
where a lot of the funding into cancer research comes from.
Which is I guess a good thing. Maybe one day
that research can benefit everyone. But yeah, there's there's there's
annoying paradox in life where the richer you are, the
more free shit you get. The more famous you are,

(06:06):
the more fame you are afforded for free, like how
Santa gives better presents to rich kids. And I'm not
going to tell you that that's how capitalism works, because
I refuse to use this loaded term capitalism to describe
what is essentially just incentive for prosperity. If you can

(06:28):
rise above that ceiling, you get these privileges, and so
do your children. If you want these privileges in life,
you should try to earn them by endeavoring to I
believe the term is a good scrub. Adults need to
get around to understanding that communism is not the answer,

(06:50):
just like kids eventually need to grow up and realize
that Santa does not. Ah do I go along with
the meme? Fine? I hearby what the sentence I was
about to complete. Santa exists in the same way real
communism exists, i e. In the minds of those who

(07:11):
believe in it, and it's a rite of passage that
everyone needs to go through at some point in their life.
Magic man is not going to help you. He's just
gonna give you false hope in an impossible magical world,
and it's up to you to transcend that impossible magic
in the real world. Santa is the first test. Thankfully,

(07:36):
just about everyone passes it as long as they make
it to adulthood. Communism is the second test, and alas
far too many people fail it for the remainder of
their lifetime. You know who does exist, Uncle fucking Sam.
I mean he is kind of elitist away, yes, but

(08:01):
at least he achieves what he set out to achieve, namely,
he helps those who help themselves. He exists in the
same way God exists by simply representing a force of nature,
one that will flourish if it is allowed to. Scott

(08:22):
Adams gets this kind of help because a lot of
people like Scott Adams, despite some of this shit he
got wrong over the years. I'm thinking of one thing
in particular that he got wrong roughly four or five
years ago, and I have the utmost respect for him
for admitting that he got it wrong, and for even

(08:45):
having the balls, sorry to consider that the thing he
was wrong about may very well be the reason he's
currently staring down the barrel of his turbo cancer. So
I'm glad that he is able to get treatment. I'm
glad that treatment can be afforded to some people. But

(09:06):
I hope at some point in the conversation someone raises
the subject of prevention, What with it being better than
the cure, what could have been done to prevent this
turbo cancer? What could have not been done so as
to not cause this turbo cancer? I hope someone can

(09:28):
whisper into Trump's ear about this little niggling matter, because
he was wrong about it too. He warp speeded it
just like every other government did. Is probably the biggest
mistake he made. Ironically, it's the one mistake that his
deranged detractors will never talk about. But they never gave

(09:51):
a shit about the Epstein files until they came up
under Trump. If Trump admitted that Operation Warp Speed was
a mistake, then the TDS Army will find themselves in
a hell of a bind, the hell of a gravitron
machine of cognitive dissonance. Will you admit that you all

(10:13):
made a mistake if it means you get to blame
Trump for that mistake? Probably not under the sunken cost fallacy.
All other fallacies are Dare I say, Trump, But I
just want to see it. I want to see the
looks on their faces. I want to see their eyes

(10:34):
darting from left to right at a million miles an
hour as they try to blame Trump for the mistake
that everyone else made to And I'm sure they'll figure
it out. They'll figure out how to put the blame
entirely on Trump. The blood clots, the strokes, the myochiditis,
the pulmonary embolisms, all of it, all nine pages of it.

(10:55):
They'll blame it all on Trump. But at least they'll
have to admit that it happened and why it happened.
And maybe then we can work on making sure it
never happens again. Yeah, now I'm the one indulging in
wish thinking. I'm the one desperately trying to believe in
a ruling media class that will ever admit to it mistake,

(11:18):
to its mistakes, even through the proxy of a scapegoat
like like like the immanual Goldstein of our age. That's
that that that ruling media class is a magic man
that will never exist. But it's a mythology that I

(11:40):
conjure to myself whenever I'm alone at night and I'm
trying to be optimistic, trying to lull myself to sleep
with dreams of a better world. We're all entitled to
our fantasies, and this is mine, a world where megalamoniacal
collectives of psychopathic liars will ever hold themselves so much

(12:01):
as peripherally accountable. You may say I'm a dreamer, but
I'm not the only one. By the way, I'm not, really,
John Lennon, None of this is medical advice.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
There you go. You know, among the many things that
they may or may not admit in the future, there
is one thing absolutely positively none of them will admit,
except for maybe Tucker Carlson, and Nick Quintas. And that
is that between the vaccine and the German warfare that

(12:43):
many people are still pretending with an accident, Men were
most affected. M and I say this as somebody who
lost two close female loved ones two to the virus.

(13:03):
More men died from it. Men were more likely to
suffer long term effects from it. And the same thing
happened with the vaccine. Males were more likely to be
injured by it. And I lost one male loved one

(13:26):
to the vaccine. So everything everything Mike said times ten,
except about our health care system. A lot of people
from nations with metered healthcare don't understand the American health
care system and they don't understand what's wrong with it
today or why it's wrong. And I have been the

(13:53):
individual that everyone's talking about my whole life when they
talk about how terrible are healthcare system is, whether they're
talking about the over prescription of drugs, whether they're talking
about the middle class of the poor not having access,
whether they're talking about treatments not being approved for for

(14:15):
people based based on you know, those people not fitting
certain criteria, whether they're talking about employers and schools not
accommodating disabilities, right, whether they're talking about what happens when
you have a catastrophic healthcare emergency and it's extremely expensive

(14:38):
and you have to have to deal with the payments
and everything. Uh. And and the fact that after years
of Americans making fun of the British dental system, the
American dental system has decided to mirror it. You know,
that's that's me too, So I I feel pretty qualified

(15:01):
to talk about this from that standpoint, and also from
the standpoint of having read the Obamacare bill that Congress
refused to read before passing it, even though it was
available they could have read it, and having paid for

(15:23):
insurance prior to and after Obamacare and see the difference.
I don't know one thing I will say that Obamacare did,
was it I think it achieved what it set out
to achieve, which was to make the American healthcare system
so much harder to access and afford for working class

(15:47):
people than it already was that ignorant people would start
clamoring for the same metered healthcare that is available in
the UK and Canada and other places with socialized The
reason they call it metered healthcare is, you know, in America,
you can't afford it right. In Canada they suggest that

(16:08):
you should use the use an Asia system instead because
you're too expensive. And in the UK you can get
your emergency must have it right now, medical treatment next
year or the year after if you're lucky. Right. So
it's definitely the worst system of all except for all

(16:32):
the others. And if Obamacare had never happened, it would
be less expensive and the insurance system would be less
fucked up. And it is incredibly fucked up. And if
the Republicans don't fix it, the Democrats are going to

(16:56):
convince large swatches of the public that it is the
fault of the medical institutions and not the predatory insurance
companies and pharmacies and pharmaceutical companies that consulted with Obama

(17:17):
and the Obama administration in the course of designing that
plan to make it so that you had to pay
for insurance, but you couldn't afford to use it, and
therefore your health care problems are solved because you technically
have access, you just can't use it, and that's on you. Right.

(17:44):
And again, this has been most affected because men are
the ones usually who are the provider for their family,
or they're on their own and they're paying for they're
either paying paying for health care on their own, or
they're paying for family health care. And the worst part

(18:04):
is if your wife has a part time job and
they offer exorbitant priced, exorbitantly priced health care plans for
their part time workers at her job, your employer gets
to charge you an extra fee for having a family plan.

(18:25):
That fee didn't exist before Obamacare. You you could ensure
your family. You could purchase a family health care plan
through through an insurance provider, through your employer, or on
your own, and there was no fee for adding your spouse,

(18:49):
you know, even if your spouse could get insurance through
another employer. So it's it's essentially a way to just
pickpocket men a little bit more instead of providing healthcare
a little bit more. In the meantime, it hasn't changed

(19:13):
the fact that most medical care that is unusual, not standard, atypical, whatever,
most care for any kind of conditions that's not by
the book. You know, if you're not a cookie cutter human,

(19:35):
you get gate kept out anyway. For instance, if you
have a condition that can manifest without all of its symptoms,
but usually manifests with a particular set of symptoms, or
at least a certain number from a particular set of symptoms,

(19:59):
you have to go to get a DNA test. For that,
you have to go speak to a genetic counselor who
will then deny you access to get that DNA test,
that medical DNA test. And then if you can't pay
out a pocket to a private company that does medical
DNA testing, it's hippoprotected. You can't find that out without

(20:20):
giving your genetic information to twenty three and meters. If
you happen to be the wrong sex to get a
particular condition, like say male but you get breast cancer
or female, but in your family, the women get colon cancer,
and they get it young, Like in my family, your

(20:44):
doctor has to fight with your insurance company for six
months after you start to have a symptom. That's a
little bit concerning, before you can actually get a colonoscopy,
and similarly, before you can actually get any further investigation
into a lump that that might actually be breast cancer

(21:04):
if you're male, because well, it's it's just really rare
for that to happen, and we don't believe in this
case that that that it did, right, And that's that's
the insurance company. And they do that with everything because
they're allowed, and you know, they're allowed to not just

(21:25):
send you for a second opinion like they used to,
but use essentially vexatious demands for extensive amounts of paperwork
and uh, repeat responses to the same questions from for
your doctor to be able to get you the treatment

(21:45):
that you need. So, you know, guys, guys like Adams,
you know, guys like well, every everybody that goes through
this kind of thing like this is this is pretty typical. Actually,
I don't know anybody that hasn't had some kind of
headache like that in their healthcare history in the last

(22:11):
ten or so years. So it's it's pretty normal now.
And I can remember when they used to just send
you for a second opinion, and once in a blue moon,
they would suggest that something was elective, like rhinoplasty to
fix a sinus issue, because rhinoplasty can also be done

(22:36):
for looks right, Well, you have to prove that it's
for a sinus issue, so the doctor has to document
what the sinus issue is, that's it, and that they
only have to do it once. But today you have
to go through every hoop in the book to to
get that done. So yeah, every single one of those

(22:57):
things once again again like it'll it'll affect a few
women like me, but mostly it's gonna hit men first
in the wallet and then in a failure to to
get health care and uh and finally, you know, in

(23:19):
in a failure to be taken seriously when they really
need health care. And this is just a prime example.
They don't want to make this available and they don't
like the idea that it might be successful. So therefore
it's hard for him to get It shouldn't be, but

(23:40):
it is, and Obamacare is probably at the roots of
that too.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
Well, all I'll say is I saw that Scott Adams
was losing his ability to draw at one point because
of the cancer, and I hope that this works for
him and it gives him a little bit more time,
because yeah, I mean, look, cancer is not fun, and

(24:12):
I don't know if he's doing chemo. I think he is.
I think that's what this is about. And that's also
not fun. I know, I've done it, and I don't know.
Like he's got prostate cancer, which is one of the
big cancers that men have to face that generally doesn't

(24:32):
see the same amount of funding or awareness raising that
other cancers get. So this is another thing, especially this month,
which is interesting because November is is is a kind
of men's health awareness month, and it's interesting that this

(24:55):
is happening at that time. So, you know, guys, if
you're getting in to your late forties, especially in your fifties,
you might need to like see someone, see a doctor
about your prostate. It's not fun, but it's necessary. So
and I won't go into like where he could it
could have come from. He's definitely in the age range

(25:17):
where this becomes a thing. So and I hope that
I'm glad that people came out and helped him. You know,
I don't care that, you know, he seems to be
getting like better treatment than poor people. That doesn't matter
to me. I think that, you know, he's getting help
from people, and that's good enough. So that's all I'll
say about that. We'll see how it goes. And I

(25:39):
hope that he's able to at least draw again, because
that sucks too. I also had that happen where I
got so sick that I couldn't move My hands were trembling,
and I couldn't draw or write or anything for months,
and it wasn't fun because it's like, you know, one
of the things I like to do, so.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
Way it would be like losing one of your senses. Yeah,
the same thing happened when I had difficulty holding cameras.

Speaker 1 (26:12):
Exactly.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
One more thing that needs to be said about this
because it is a point on prostate cancer. And while
I no longer support the November Foundation, because they're supporting
they're supporting psychological treatment that that relies on feminist terms
like toxic masculinity. The Prostate Cancer Foundation is widely recognized

(26:41):
for directing the largest portion of its donations toward research,
and it's it's actually got a pretty good track record
for success, So they're they're a good one to to
look up and donate to the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Uh,
and uh, this would be a good month to give

(27:04):
directly to them, because just because you know, I'm not
supporting the November Foundation doesn't mean I don't support Prostate
Awareness Month. Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, and that is this month.
So that's that's where I would suggest if you're going

(27:25):
to uh respond to this kind of reminder that you
know somebody that that everybody knows who he is, is
going through it by donating to an organization to to
you know, continue research finding better ways to treat and

(27:48):
prevent and maybe someday cure prostate cancer. The Prostate Cancer
Foundation is is a pretty good choice.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Yeah, but let us know what you guys think about
this story in the comments and uh yeah, like I said,
you know, just like don't wait and if you can
be you know, be adamant about your health, it matters.
All right. I got some super a super chat and

(28:21):
a super chow and then we're gonna move on. So
Guild of Arcane Lore gave us a super chat for
two seventy nine and Canadian pesos and said, FBI too
busy redacting the EPs. I guess you mean Epstein files.
All right, thank you for that, are you like we

(28:41):
were talking about the British police though, I hope you
understand the context, but sure. And then Richard Berre gave
us five dollars and said Obamacare has contributed additional steps
to converting the healthcare system into a Rube Goldberg machine,
with the exception that the simple task that the machine
platforms in the most complicated way possible doesn't always get achieved.

(29:05):
All right, Thank you for that, Richard. All Right, so
we're gonna move on to the next story. Let us
know what you guys think about this one in the comments.
Oh and and by the way, there were some messages
of support for Scott Adams generally, and yes, Jack Pisobiac said,
I can confirm Scott Adams now has an appointment tomorrow

(29:27):
for his cancer treatment, which was yesterday. And yeah, it
looks like everybody came out and support of him. So
that's good. I hope that he recovers and we'll see.
All right, moving on, this one kind of flew under
the radar, I didn't. I learned about it and I
sent it to Mike Jay and he did a good job.
So this is a Mike Jay right up here. Indiana

(29:50):
police as well as the FBI prevented a possible school
shooting earlier this year and the world and the would
be perpetrator has just pled guilty. Eighteen year old female
to male transgender trinity Jay Shockley, who authority say goes
by either Jamie or Dex, entered into a plea agreement

(30:11):
two weeks ago for the charges of conspiracy to commit murder,
which saw the additional two counts of intimidation to commit
terrorism dropped. Shockley was charged back in February of this
year after the FBI tipped off local police that Shockley
was planning a shooting, had access to an AR fifteen,
and had ordered a bulletproof vest online. Shockley was obsessed

(30:34):
with school shooters, particularly twenty eighteen Parkland school shooter Nicholas Cruz,
and wanted to carry out her attack on the same
day as his Valentine's Day. When authority searched Shockley's home,
they uncovered photo albums, notebooks, and even a shrine, all
dedicated to various school shooters and mass shooters. Some of
these notebooks contained entries like quote, these thoughts never seem

(30:57):
to stop. You may believe that I am some edge lord,
but in reality I'm just a loser. I'm grateful for
my chance to live, but in reality I'm scared of living.
Is it the government, you ask, No, It is this
sad reality of living with a piece of shit with
pieces of shit. I'm sorry. I hope whoever reads this

(31:18):
takes acknowledgment and maybe uses it for your massacre. Smiley
face end quote Shockley tried to explain away her actions,
stating that the plan was all a joke. Authority stated
quote Shockley stated that Shockley wanted to recreate what Cruse did,
but Shockley would never do anything like that. It was

(31:39):
said out of rage. Shockley is trying to get help
with it. Shockley wanted to be in homeschool because of
how bad the thoughts got. Shockley was also active on
social media such as Discord and Snapchat, where she went
by the handle crazy Nicolas and discussed plans for Parkland
shoot or Parkland Part two and stated quote, I'll be honest,

(32:01):
I'm close to shooting mine up. I have an ar
fifteen end quote. Speaking further to the police, Shockley said
that she was the victim of harassment and bullying in
school after being hit by a drunk driver, an incident
that left her with a fractured skull and brain injuries.
Police noted that ever since the incident, she sought mental
health support from a school district, but her father denied

(32:23):
these requests as he did quote not believe in mental
health treatment end quote. Shockley faces between ten and thirty
years in prison, with her attorney requesting twelve and a
half years and up to five years probation. Terms of
this probation include mandatory mental health checkups, prohibition on searching
for school shooting related content, as well as being banned

(32:45):
from entering Morgan County school properties.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
This is this is once again where there's not much
we can do except play the blame game. Again, it
always seems inappropriate, even in a case like this, where
there aren't any murders, we have to tiptoe around so
as to not step on their graves or anything. And

(33:10):
from every angle, it seems like some people will always
be blaming the wrong thing. A lot of people will
be blaming the father for quote, not believing in mental
health treatment. But something tells me that what he meant
was he doesn't trust the institutions generally in charge of

(33:32):
mental health and frankly based, such institutions are usually rife
with quacks and kooks whose only proposed solution to a
young adult who thinks they're a loser is to convince
them that they are in the wrong body, as if
that's going to do anything but exacerbate the idea that

(33:53):
you're a loser if your soul has been accidentally placed
in the wrong body. Then that's like loss to me.
Whatever God or not God you believe in, being accidentally
tossed into the wrong body is gonna make you feel
like a loser, like you've been dealt a really bad
hand in life, and furthermore, that there's nothing you can

(34:18):
do about it. I mean, short of perhaps ursuing this
obviously bogus notion and maybe entertaining the notion that there's
no such thing as being in the wrong body. Yeah,
it sounds like the father was on the right side
of this issue. But alas, I don't have all that
much information. And it's not just mental health institutions that

(34:41):
are broadly guilty of instilling this delusion in young adults
and indeed in children. It's schools. It's the teachers and
the administrations in schools who will pander to these delusions,
either because they don't want to offend the high priests
of this cult or because they themselves are the high

(35:04):
priests of this cult. Yeah, and it's not just the
teachers in the administration, it's the very nature of schools
under any given administration. It's like I was talking about
a couple of months ago, when a similar thing happened.
There's a reason. Shootings tend to take place in schools
and not in amusement parks or whatever, not in places

(35:26):
where it's fun to be. Kids hate schools for a reason,
especially introverted kids, and there are a lot of them.
Lord knows, I was an introverted kid, and God, yes,
I hated schools. School is a fucking nightmare for introverts.
They have to spend seven hours a day, two hundred
days a year surrounded by monsters, cruel, tribalistic monsters with

(35:53):
undeveloped brains. Like I keep saying, homeschool your kids if
you can, and if you can't, figure out how you can,
because sure enough this individual reportedly wanted to be homeschooled.
They freely and enthusiastically said so. How explicit does this
have to be? How many kids have to keep saying

(36:15):
I hate it in school, I've always hated it. Please
stop sending me there, or I'm going to lose my
fucking mind. How long do they have to keep saying
this before somebody joins the dots. If guns were the problem,
you would see mass shootings taking place in just random locations,

(36:35):
just anywhere. But if they keep taking place in schools,
more than anywhere else. Maybe schools are the problem, and
I put it to you that they are, and the
growing prevalence of transgender school shooters indicates at least to

(36:55):
me that there is a connection with what schools are
teaching students about out gender. I'm not saying schools should
be shut down. I'm just joining some dots here. I'm
just asking questions. Maybe schools would be slightly less hellish

(37:16):
places to be if they weren't being run by these
tunnel tunnel vision zealots of a certain gender ideology that
has been running away with itself for a century now.
You might say that an easy fix would be to
go back to segregated schools gender segregated schools, And yeah,

(37:38):
maybe or maybe boys and girls can integrate together as
long as they're not being ruled by crazy gender ideologues
who are determined to enforce that the opposite of segregation,
that the forcing of males and females into the same homogeneous,
non binary mass of beige globs. Right, maybe we can

(38:02):
meet in the middle somewhere where we don't need to
be segregated or mashed up into a blob. Maybe males
and females are different, not entirely different, but you did
reasonably different, and that's fine. Having said that, I think

(38:22):
segregation is the better option of the two directions. I mean,
if I had to pick one. I mean, when schools
were largely segregated, there were little to no mass shootings
or mass stabbings, even though there were far more guns
and roughly the same amount of lives. At least that's
what I can ascertain. You never know how much history

(38:46):
has been covered up, just like you never know how
much the FBI is lying. Maybe they're still lying. They
probably are, see it seems to be their main job.
I don't know. I don't know crap about it. I mean,
I do know to a reason, to a reasonable extent,

(39:07):
that males and females are different. They fuck what the
FBI is telling us for what the police and the
media are telling us. How about let's start with what
is fucking obvious, even to the lowest IQ imaginable. Males
and females are different. Anyone who refuses to understand this
should not be put in charge of children or adults, frankly,

(39:30):
al any sexual species. If you can't understand that, go
fuck off and study single celled organisms. Or something but.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
Advice.

Speaker 4 (39:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
One thing that male and female children have in common, though,
right is, uh, the devil made me do it? And
they will. They will come up with an excuse for
everything the wrong, everything they do that's not acceptable. Uh.
And and if adults allow the excuses to stand, then

(40:10):
the child will continue to make more excuses. And in
this case, the excuse, the first excuse that I saw
there was you know, the the I'm I'm just a loser.
You know, I can't I think this way because I'm

(40:31):
a loser. It's just me, you know, blah blah blah.
I've hung out with people who thought of themselves as
just losers growing up. I thought of myself that way
in a lot of ways. And it's it's bullshit to
say that somebody who just feels like a loser is

(40:55):
automatically going to decide they should go shoot up a school.
When you look at the history of actual school shootings,
there are always a couple of other factors involved. And
one reason that the father was right in this case

(41:17):
to not send her to mental health care and think
that that was going to solve all of her problems
is that they have a tendency to just throw selective
serotonin reuptake inhibitors at a child having mental health issues.
And if you look back at earlier school shootings, almost

(41:40):
everyone involved, almost every shooter, was found to be on
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. It's the thing that those things
do to you that most people, if you haven't been
subjected to them, you've never experienced this. It's a very
weird condition to be put in. If you are put

(42:06):
on these meds because you're suffering from depression or some
other mood condition, they don't necessarily get rid of that condition.
They're pretty decent anti anxiety meds, but they're not that
great for treating a lot of other conditions. And so

(42:27):
what you end up with is if you have intrusive thoughts,
if you're suicidal, if you're homicidal, if you're just an asshole,
anything like that, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are used
to try to treat your condition. Instead of changing your condition,

(42:50):
they just remove your anxiety about the potential consequences of
acting on your intrusive thoughts. It makes it very difficult
to refrain from, say, following up on that suicidal ideation.
And if you don't have something else, like a moral

(43:13):
code or consideration for what your family will go through
after your suicide that would stop you, or people who
care enough to notice and figure out what's going on
and try to stop you, you're more likely to go
through it. And so it's dangerous to just turn the

(43:36):
kid over to the healthcare system and say, well, fix this,
it's broken, because it doesn't work. The healthcare system is
not a tool set. You as the parent, have to
be the most involved in your kid's life. If everybody
was fighting him on that, that probably fucked her up

(43:59):
even more. That's one thing. The second excuse I noticed
was the oh, this happened after harassment and bullying and
getting hit by a drunk driver. So okay, like everything
in the world hasn't happened to me, but this just
happens to be coincidentally. One of the things that did.

(44:22):
My family was hit by a drunk driver. My grandmother,
my mother and I were on our way from western
Ohio to eastern Ohio and we got hit. We got
t boned, and it was so bad that it bent
our car around the front corner of the other car
like a fortune cookie. They had to use the jaws

(44:42):
of life to get my mom out. She was hit
so hard both of her lungs collapsed. I was like
ten years older, sitting in the back of the car.
I was actually asleep when the vehicle hit, so I
was laying down in the seat. If I had have
been laying hadn't had motion sickness, I'd have been laying
on my right side instead of on my left side.

(45:05):
And if that had been the case, you wouldn't be
listening to this story. But I was laying curled up
with my head behind my grandmother's seat instead, And you
all get to hear how I sat there helplessly as
a ten year old and watched my mom suffocate like

(45:25):
I could hear her gasping for breath. Very traumatic incident.
I used to not be able to talk about this
at all. If I did talk about it, I ended
up in tears and shaking and all of the things
that happened with trying to recount a horrible experience. It
was the scariest thing that happened to me, up until

(45:47):
the point where I mistakenly thought the doctor was saying
my son was going to die. When I was in
labor that wasn't what he was saying, and that wasn't
what was happening.

Speaker 4 (45:57):
But.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
That was still as scary as if it was real.
And I've never led a trauma make me want to
kill other people, not even once. I got bullied when
I was a kid. Y'all have heard some of those stories.
Got mugged for our Halloween candy one time by high
school kids when I was in elementary school. I think

(46:21):
people have heard that story a dozen times, if not more.
This is not an excuse. Every kid that's been bullied,
that's been male, that has gone on to be a
school shooter. The first thing that you hear is he
should have known better. That's not a solution. That's not

(46:43):
an answer, and do something needs to be done by
the administration. But shooting the people who weren't bullying in
isn't the answer. It's no different. Just because this is
a girl's not any more vulnerable than her male classmates.

(47:06):
Just because she's a girl, she's not any less culpable
for her decisions. Just because she's a girl, she's not
any less dangerous. When you buy the supplies to commit
a violent crime and you tell people you are going
to commit a violent crime, and you write in your

(47:27):
diaries that you're going to commit a violent crime, you
tell your parents you need help because you're going to
commit a violent crime. It stops being a joke at
some point. If she was a boy, they would be
talking about trying her as an adult for attempting this

(47:48):
and putting her in jail instead of getting her help.
But because she's a girl, she's going to get lenience
and everybody's going to be sympathetic, and we're going to
talk the thing that we should always talk about when
somebody goes from infant to violent criminal before they ever

(48:10):
reach adulthood, which is what the fuck were the adults
doing in this kid's life that failed her so badly
that this is where she ended up. And I'm not
going to exempt the father, but the mother needed to
be in lockstep with him and putting her foot down

(48:31):
and spending individual time and family time with her daughter,
finding out what was going on with her and understanding
and if their mother had passed away, every teacher in
the school, every female teacher in the school, is culpable,
not as substitute moms, but because they know that this

(48:52):
is a kid who's minus one parent, like, I don't
know the family situation, so I'm not saying that that's
what happened. But every single adult, just like I said
after the Parkway shooting, every single adult in this kid's
life failed her. She's culpable for her choices and they

(49:16):
are culpable for their failures. And it is time that
we start looking at violent kids as reasons why we
need to evaluate how kids are being raised in our society.
What are we doing, what are we allowing to happen,

(49:40):
what are we ignoring, what's in our public school system?
What are parents failing to do that leads to this,
because it's not something that just as a natural outcome.
As people grow up, when they mature and they learn

(50:01):
lessons in life that make them more mature people, and
they become better able to fit in in society, they
become less violent, not more violent. Toddlers don't run around
killing people, so if a teenager does, they've become more violent.
So yeah, this is an issue of a few different things,

(50:25):
and they may have ignored this problem as it was developing,
specifically because people think girls aren't dangerous. Girls can be
very dangerous if they are allowed to not develop mentally

(50:47):
the way that they should psychologically the way that they should,
and they don't get the support they need. If they
are taught stupid things in schools that fuck with their heads,
and they are essentially treated as accessories instead of growing adults,

(51:13):
then yeah, they can become exactly like this, just like boys.
And actually there have been a number of girls that
have been school shooters, including the first one to be
reported in the news as a school shooter. So the first,
the first school shooter to be reported in the news

(51:35):
as a school shooter was a girl. I think we've
talked about that before too, So I'm you know, I'm
sad for this kid, just like I am for every
kid that has a catastrophic failure and development like this.
But I think that it is important that we recognize

(51:59):
that part of the problem is not taking seriously the
threat that a girl can can present, and not taking
seriously the impact that fucking with kids' heads can present.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
Uh yeah, I guess the only thing I'll add to that, Actually,
you guys said a lot already is that we're gonna
have to start like really considering looking into why all
of these all this violence is coming out of a
trans population and I think that it's a product of well,

(52:40):
it's hard to say, but I wouldn't be surprised if
part of it is an identity crisis that leads to
let's say, misanthropic, a misanthropic worldview that. But I think
that we need to really consider, we need to really
look at, like the mental health issues with people who

(53:01):
think they are trands, especially young people who haven't you know,
done the work, don't really know what they are. They
see it as a trend or a social contagion, or
something to do so you stand out in some way,
and maybe there's something deeper than that in their personal life,
probably something going on at home. I don't know, but

(53:23):
I think we have to Well, for my part, I
don't promote or let's say, vocally support people with a
trans identity. I don't necessarily condemn them or shame them.
But I'm not going to participate in normalizing it because
I think that it leads to stuff like this. I

(53:45):
think that especially if they're young and there's no way
they could know, you know, I think that it's a problem.
So this is something that just to you know, to
add to everything else that's already been said and I'm
glad that the FBI stopped this, and I think this
is like a point for them that I would say,
because we've had a spate of trans shootings and there

(54:05):
are cults like the Zizians, which I've talked about on
the channel before that form, I wouldn't say it's around
trans ideology. It's more around a kind of like materialist
rationalist ideology. I know that sounds crazy, but that's what
they're like, extreme rationalists, and so I think they rationalize

(54:25):
that the body you live in is purely is just
like a vessel that you can change depending on how
you feel, and they rationalize that, and I think that
they become well, I know that they do. Andy Know
has done a lot of reporting on this stuff, and
I think that it's something we should, you know, like
be we should set aside the stigma of offending trans

(54:48):
people and look at what is really going on, because
this is like going to get worse if we don't
take it seriously.

Speaker 2 (54:55):
So well, something else to consider with regard to the
trans issue is this, right, there's a reason why gender
dysphoria used to be really, really rare. It's because actual
gender dysphoria is really really rare. It's not a condition
that happens very often. The things that cause it are

(55:18):
not conditions that happen very often, and it used to
prompt the individual to not just want to identify as
something like non binary or any other iteration of I'm
a girl today and I'm a boy tomorrow, or maybe

(55:41):
I'm both at the same time and blah blah blah,
even if you don't have the hormones and the biological
conditions that cause that. It's something that the individuals who
experienced it were prompted emotionally to want to adopt all

(56:03):
of the characteristics of the opposite sex that they possibly could.
And we have today the people that are labeled truons
when you look at them, they don't do that. The
reason they don't do that is because they don't actually
have gender dysphor you. And when it comes to kids

(56:25):
in school who are suddenly developing this so called social contagion,
they're not developing it because they were confused and their
teacher helped them identify it. They are developing it because
their teacher presented being something other than the gender the

(56:47):
sex they were born as. Because you don't get you
don't have gender. Human beings do not have gender. It
does not exist in humans. You're plug for your lamp
that you plug into the wall that has gender, and
the outlet that you plug it into has gender. The
lamp plug is male, the outlet is female. Words have gender,

(57:08):
people have sex, people are one sex or the other sex,
and a very tiny minority of the population is somewhere
on a spectrum in between because of genetic differences. So
when teachers start presenting being something on a spectrum of

(57:30):
seventy two alleged genders as the way to get approval,
the way to be one of the cool kids, being
not straight and not identifying as the sexual or born
becomes the only way a student who feels uncool or
stressed about socialization, or otherwise unable to fit in can

(57:58):
make themselves a niche in which to fit, make themselves
important and special, and gain their teacher's approval and gain
protection some protection, at least from bullies, because schools have
specific policies related to their specific identity, and what happens

(58:25):
when that kid doesn't actually have gender dysph you. It's
the same thing that happens if they treat you for
bipolar disorder when you don't actually have bipolar disorder, or
if they treat you for schizophrenia when you don't actually
have schizophrenia, it will drive you crazy. It will make

(58:48):
you nuts, and it will cost you your ability to
relate effectively with other people and with yourself. You end
up in an identity crisis and in fact develop a
dysphoria around reality. And it's it's very upsetting and very

(59:14):
discombobulating and very very much a reason why a student
might become violent or suicidal. And most of us that
get gas lit like that, by gaslighted like that by
the healthcare system, you know, we become suicidal. Occasionally you

(59:37):
get a kid like this that becomes violent and and
I'm glad it was prevented, just like I'm glad when
every suicide is prevented. Every time we can prevent untimely death,
that's a good thing. But it's a band aid. And
until they get this system straightened out and stuff up

(01:00:00):
fucking with kids' heads, that's not going to change. There
will be more. This is going to continue and it's
going to get worse. So in your community, if you
are able, you should be pushing for your school board,
your local school board, and your state school board or

(01:00:24):
province school board, whatever, to get this shit out of
your schools because it is killing your children.

Speaker 3 (01:00:33):
Yeah, I'm sorry, one more quick point. I'll be all
be as quick as I can. But I'm glad this
wasn't talked about for ten months, and I kind of
wish it was never talked about. People have been warning
about warning us about this ever since Columbine, and even
since before Columbine that this transcends, say the trans premise

(01:00:58):
or any other premise other than the fame that comes
with being a perpetrator of these mass tragedies. Herostratic fame
is often called after the guy who burned down the
library of Alexandria just to become famous, and the ancient

(01:01:21):
Greeks tried to cover it up for the longest time,
but they couldn't because eventually the guy Herosites or whatever
his name was. I don't want to remember his name,
because that's the point. He committed this tragedy in order
to become famous, and so the responsibility of the media

(01:01:42):
should be not to publicize these things, because that's what
makes people famous. And even in the absence of any
of these fucked up ideologies. If you publicize the events
of this tragedy, then you will spur on copycat killers
who also want to become famous. And it's it's a

(01:02:06):
hell of a situation now that we now now that
we live in this world where any citizen journalists can
report on these things, so it's impossible to sweep it
under the rug. But you know this, this is a
responsibility that citizen journalists should bear in mind, just as
much as the mass media should bear in mind. Like,

(01:02:26):
if it's at all possible, well, if in the event
that these tragedies are just random events caused by no
particular pattern, you shouldn't publicize them because because you'll you'll
cause other people to think, well, it made that personal famous.
I can be famous too, even in death, and that's

(01:02:48):
all I want. But, like I said, given that there
are so many patterns, like with SSRIs, like with like
with the trans thing, and like with certain religious ideologies
and such, if you promise people, if fame is promised
to people, in the event that they kill a bunch

(01:03:10):
of people and then die, at least they will be remembered.
I mean, if there are patterns, then the people should
know about the patterns so that they can prevent it
from happening. But if there is no pattern, then just
don't talk about it. And yeah, I can. That's that's
a fool's folly to say don't talk about it. It's

(01:03:32):
impossible for people not to talk about it now that
everyone is so capable of talking about it. It's a
really shite state of affairs. And I don't know how
we get out of it other than by addressing the
patterns that make these things happen. And I believe we've
already covered those patterns to the best as we can.

(01:03:54):
So let's move on.

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
Well, okay, so I got a super child from Meredith
G who gives us five and says, honey, HBr News
number two five twenty six, honey for the Badgers. So
I'm going to point something out. One thing we never
talked about is that mass shooting has a contagion factor.
And we should notice how susceptible those who are attracted
to the trans ideology are to committing acts of mass violence.

(01:04:20):
There is something about how that ideology that f sweat
people's minds. Yes, thank you, Meredith appreciated. That's what I
was going to say.

Speaker 2 (01:04:26):
I well, it's victim ideology, That's why it is.

Speaker 1 (01:04:29):
And then there's like a.

Speaker 2 (01:04:32):
When you think about it, other people who are not
associated with trans ideology that have committed acts of mass violence.
One thing that they all have in common, besides the
fact that many of them are on selective serotonin reuptake
inhibitors and many of them don't have a father at home,

(01:04:52):
is the fact that they identify as victims of something
and they are taking it out on the people around them,
and most of the time their victimhood, their identity of victimhood,
is disproportionate to the issues that they are attributing it to.

(01:05:15):
So there's a mentality that inflates victimhood, that inflates it exponentially,
like that that is attracted to mass contagions and in
particular those that contain built in victimhood. I would say

(01:05:38):
probably feminism is something that people should be concerned about
as well, and feminists have committed mass violence in the past.
So there you go.

Speaker 1 (01:05:50):
Yeah, all right, well, let us know what you guys
think about this one in the comments. We're going to
move on to the next story. Okay, So Nigeria, you
guys may have heard, has been plagued by severe religious violence,
particularly its northern and Middle belt regions, where Islamist groups

(01:06:12):
like Boko Haram, which, by the way, we have talked
about Boco Haram in the past, so I thought it
was interesting to connect it to this Islamic state West
Africa province, the Isswap and radicalized Fulani herdsmen have targeted
Christian communities amid broader insurgencies, farmer herder clashes, and banitry.

(01:06:33):
Reports from organizations such as Open Doors and the International
Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law indicate
that over fifty two thousand Christians have been killed since
two thousand and nine, with more than seven thousand deaths
in the first half of twenty twenty five alone, an
average of about thirty five Christians a day, alongside thousands

(01:06:54):
of churches burned and villages destroyed. These attacks often involve
mass succurs, kidnappings, and sexual violence, displacing tens of thousands
and making Nigeria the deadliest country globally if you're Christian,
where believers are six and a half times more likely
to be killed for their faith than Muslims. However, analysts

(01:07:15):
and monitoring groups like the Armed Conflict Location and Event
Data Project emphasize that the violence is multifaceted, driven by
ethnic tensions, resource disputes, and economic factors, not a state
orchestrated genocide, with most victims of jihadi's groups being Muslims
and only about fifty of one thousand, nine hundred and

(01:07:36):
twenty three civilian attacks in twenty twenty five explicitly religion targeted.
The Nigerian government under President Bola Tinbu has denied claims
of systematic persecution, highlighting military gains against terrorists such as
neutralizing over thirteen thousand, five hundred fighters and balanced religious
representation in leadership, though critics argue inadequate protection persists. So

(01:08:01):
this is where our presidents stepped in. President Donald Trump
has responded aggressively, redesignated Nigeria as a country of Particular
Concern on October thirty one, twenty twenty five, for severe
religious freedom violations and threatening to halt all aid, while
ordering the Pentagon to plan a fast, fast, vicious military action,

(01:08:24):
including potential air strikes or troop deployment, to eliminate Islamist
terrorists if killings continue. This echoes his twenty twenty designation,
which was reversed by Biden in twenty twenty one, and
aligns with US lawmakers like Senator Ted Cruz and Representatives
Chris Smith and Riley Moore, who have pushed for sanctions

(01:08:44):
and investigations, citing Nigeria as facing an existential threat to Christianity.
Other world leaders' responses have been more restrained. Nigeria's Tinbu
welcome US anti terror aid but rejected genocide claims and
military threats as sovereignty violations, and as Foreign Ministry opposed
US interference under religious pretexts, and the European Parliament queried

(01:09:05):
the EU on bollstring protections and diplomacy. The US Catholic
Conference of Bishops and groups like International Christian Concern have
urged global humanitarian aid and accountability, but broader international action
remains limited amid debates over the violences.

Speaker 5 (01:09:22):
Framing, Yeah, they're calling it ethnic, but it's I mean,
I know there are moderately different ethnic groups in Nigeria
DISLI there are moderately different ethnic groups along all of Africa,
even in within African countries, especially larger ones, especially ones

(01:09:43):
with enormous populations like Nigeria one.

Speaker 3 (01:09:47):
Hundred and fifty million people or something. It's mental and
so in a way this was inevitable. Africa for the
last few centuries has been a breeding ground for colonial
all outsiders, and not just of the national kind, also
of the monotheistic kind. North Africa and to some extent

(01:10:12):
East Africa are mostly Islamic at this point, which makes
sense because Islam has invaded by land across from the
East via Egypt, whereas Christendom invaded by sea because Bretannia
ruled the waves. That's that's how it got hold of

(01:10:35):
Western Africa and Sub Saharan Africa. And there's been this
standoff for some time because of the great barrier of
the Sahara Desert, Like nobody can cross the Sahara Desert,
certainly not in you know, armies or whatever. Nigeria seems
to be the first major country where that conflict has

(01:10:57):
finally bled through. Apparently the Muslims have finally managed to
cross the desert. Well, it's not i it's less about
that and more about how it's more about how ruthless
Islam has become over the years, and how comparatively feeble
and anemic Christianity has become. Even in Africa. Maybe it's

(01:11:21):
because so many Christian nations have they were trying to
to missionary Christianity across Africa in the first place, have
religiously imploded over the years due to what I choose
to call cultural likeophobia or religious likeophobia. Maybe it's because

(01:11:43):
Christianity was destined to fall into this over they neighbors. Yeah,
I don't know. Maybe the answer is for all these
African nations to cast off these foreign religions and get
back to their animist roots. But that's like expecting Europe

(01:12:05):
to get back to its pagan roots with the Druids
and all that. But it's a nice idea, but it
doesn't look like it's going to happen. Like, for whatever reason,
one god always seems to win against multiple gods. It
sounds counterintuitive, but it is what it is. Maybe a

(01:12:29):
better answer would be for people to find their balls,
to find their gumption and say, Okay, we're on board
with your Jewish God and your other interpretations of this
Jewish God, but we're not going to kill people because
of it. Again, it sounds unlikely, but it's what we
did in Europe. We used to kill each other over

(01:12:54):
this Jewish God. But we eventually went, let's not do
this anymore, which I still believe, but maybe let's not
do all the religious genocide. Of course, it took like
a World War or two before we could figure this out.
So it's not looking good for the outskirts of Sub

(01:13:15):
Saharan Africa, especially given that it's a war not just
between factions of Christianity, but a war between Christianity and
is that the two biggest religions in the world, both
directed by the same Jewish God. By the way, So yeah,
I don't know what say other than other than to

(01:13:37):
say what your average for Dora typic atheist would say,
just don't believe in your god anymore. That's not gonna work,
so I'll try to tone it down and up. At
the same time, it's okay for you to believe in
your Jewish God, or so you should, I say, the
Jewish God that's been opposed on you. But do see

(01:13:57):
if you can learn from our mistakes, from how European mistakes,
millions could die millions, So please learn from history. Yeah,
you all do have a sense of history right in
Sub Saharan Africa. You do see time as moving in
that direction right from past the future.

Speaker 4 (01:14:18):
Oh shit, you see time in the exact opposite direction. Well,
like mister Stephenson well ship, all right, fuck it, none
of my business.

Speaker 3 (01:14:28):
Go ahead and call your population. I'm moving back. I'm
not a religious oste scholar. None of this is sh.

Speaker 2 (01:14:40):
So a while back on HBr Talk, we were we
were actually looking at Nigeria, but this is not the
side of the issue that we were we were looking at. Interestingly,
this has been going on for longer than the article
talks about. It's been in on and off thing for
for decades. And I can remember missionaries from my church

(01:15:04):
going to Africa because of circumstances like this, and everybody
being worried because of circumstances like this. So, and it's
not just in Nigeria. This is happening in other African
nations as well. It's just that currently the worst iteration
of it is in Nigeria. And it all goes back

(01:15:30):
to the World Wars. But Nigeria and other nations in
Africa have been affected by a humanitarian initiative veil infection
for a long time from the US, where we've sent

(01:15:56):
organizations funded by our federal government over there to interfere
with their local politics, to interfere with their local family structure,
to essentially create a feminist nation in every African nation,

(01:16:18):
to create the circumstances that prompt many men to adopt
the islam mentality toward women. That I've made this argument
recently on x and I have really pissed off some feminists,

(01:16:38):
so I must be right. I'm over the target because
I've got a couple of them trying their damnedest to
flame me. And it's kind of funny because they're kind
of inept. But when you take a group of people
and an entire demographic of the population based on some

(01:16:59):
immutable care characteristic, and you say this immutable characteristic defined
portion of the population is responsible for the choices of
this other immutable characteristic defined portion of the population adults

(01:17:19):
responsible for other adults choices, what you are leading to, logically,
is that the scapegoated portion of the population is obligated
to control the choices of the not responsible portion of

(01:17:40):
the population, and their obligation to control those choices generally
pans out in a system of restrictions on the not
responsible portion of the population and a system of guardianship

(01:18:00):
that that is to be uh, stewarded and enacted by
the by the scapegoat population. And that is essentially what
happens between men and when women under Islamic guardianship, the
idea that men are responsible for women's choices and therefore

(01:18:24):
obligated to control women's choices, and therefore women cannot go
any place alone, women cannot have any of their skin
showing women, women cannot have jobs, drive cars, whatever, depending
on which nation you're talking about, have to have their
hair covered, you know, any anything that shows that they're female. Uh.

(01:18:47):
And they don't get to decide who they're going to
marry in some nations, and you know, don't don't get
to decide whether or not they're consenting to sex, you know,
and and so on. And a feminist got really mad
when I pointed that out, that you can't scapegoat a demographic,

(01:19:10):
a population demographic based on their immutable characteristics as being
responsible for your choices that you have sold control over,
without inspiring them to presume obligation to control your choices.
And I think that a lot of the problems that

(01:19:30):
we're seeing in Africa today can trace directly back and
be laid directly at the feet of the feminist organizations
that the federal government has been funding for fifty fucking years,
going over there and engaging in this bullshit, teaching women

(01:19:54):
to not value their families as much as they value
their egos, engaging in promotion of male genital mutilation, abortion, divorce,
and sexual promiscuity on a continent where these things have

(01:20:16):
all proved to be deadly to the people engaging in them.
When you split up families, they're more likely to starve
to death in a nation where food is scarce and
resources are scarce. When you impose that on families, you
are killing people. You are responsible for their deaths. When
you promote sexual promiscuity on a continent where AIDS has

(01:20:41):
been an epidemic since it first started, you are killing people.
You are responsible for their deaths. When you promote male
genital mutilation on a continent where the worst iteration of
it involves cutting the penis in half from the bottom. Sorry, guys,

(01:21:02):
if I made anybody throw up. You're killing people. You're
responsible for it, and our government, our feminist run government,
has been doing that for as long as I've been alive.
There have been numerous organizations that we looked at on

(01:21:24):
HBr talk that have been over there and all over
the rest of the world. There in South America, they're
in Europe, they're in parts of North America doing this shit,
promoting these things, pushing for a division between women and
men while scapegoating men as responsible for women's choices. What

(01:21:53):
do you think is gonna happen? Gosh, you're gonna inspire
men to flock to a religion that doesn't do that
to them without giving them control over those choices. Feminism
is cancer and it's killing Africa. And I blame feminism

(01:22:20):
for the spread of Islam in Africa and the deaths
of every Christian that has been killed because Islam in
Africa is opposed to Christianity, even though their religious book
says that they're supposed to get along. Apparently that part,

(01:22:42):
you know, he didn't mean it, So yeah, I may
be really pissed off about this. My tax dollars, my
parents' tax dollars, my whole family's tax dollars was spent
to promote things in foreign nations that killed people for

(01:23:03):
believing in the things that we believe in. If you're
a Christian in the United States, or if you care
about human life, at all, and if you care about
men at all, because who do you think is being
cond into doing this killing or is being inflamed into
doing this killing? And who do you think is trying

(01:23:26):
to protect their families first? Is the first in line
to get killed trying to prevent the women and children
in their families from dying. It's men and older boys
and in some cases young boys. So if you care
about men and boys, if you care about human life,
if you care about genocide, if you care about Christians

(01:23:50):
being massacred, then you should be turning your ire toward
the establishment in DC. I don't want to see American
young men and boys being sent anywhere to fight, and

(01:24:11):
I hope that this can be resolved without that happening.
But if it can't and our government decides to send them,
blame feminists. Feminists are directly responsible for this. They pushed
the first Domino, and they demanded your money be spent

(01:24:35):
to do it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:40):
On a brighter note, I'll add that you know you
don't normally hear about you know, Christians as a demographic
being attacked or genocide it and the same way you
don't hear that about white people. So what Trump is
doing with spotlighting it. I don't think it's purely political,

(01:25:00):
but it has the side effect like political is in
like it's to like sort of you know, increase favor
for him. But it does have the side effect of
doing that at least making people pretty like confused about
whether or not you know that that whole thing about
him being racist for example, like why would he look
out for Nigerians Nigerian Christians And he did the same

(01:25:25):
like when he allowed some South African farmers to come
to the States. That also, like you know, made some
heads explode. And again I just think but you know,
for my part, the thing that sends out for me
is that you don't really hear this like from in
the media, and I mean, like whether it's our news

(01:25:46):
or entertainment, Christianity is attacked about as much as men are,
maybe a little bit less, and I think that there
is like a link there that is something we should
be aware of, that there's connection that these things get
attacked for a reason. So I'm glad that he's you know,

(01:26:07):
putting a spotlight on it. I don't think it's going
to be necessary for him to put boots on the
ground there. I think that because what's happening is this
is happening to the Christians there and the government of
Nigeria isn't participating in it, but they are running cover
for it because they're trying to downplay it well, you know,
and this is again what happened in South Africa. And

(01:26:27):
the reason why is because if they had to fess
up to what was going on, then they'd have to
deal with the United States military. So they don't want to,
so they're just like trying to distract or office skate
or dismiss or downplay. But I don't think we're going
to go for it. But at the end of the day,
I don't think it's going to escalate into anything. And

(01:26:50):
it's a good thing that this is, you know, again
being highlighted. It's good that people know that this is happening.
And look, if you live in a Western country like Canada, Europe,
the United Kingdom, the United States, whether you're religious or
not is sort of irrelevant. The countries are built on
religious a sort of Christian baseline, you know, and and

(01:27:14):
that combined with Hellenic you know, sort of ancient Greece
and Rome values were like the substrate under on which
are belief systems in these countries as based. And this
is the thing like with a lot of other countries,
they don't share that. And Nigeria being Christian or other
Christian countries like Ethiopia, I believe is a majority of

(01:27:36):
Christian country that's a threat to the to Islamic nations
because the central I guess you could say the central
difference between Christianity and Islam and Judaism is that Christianity
assumes that we're all made the image of God, and
therefore we all have free will and we all make

(01:27:58):
choices as individual rules, and that that's the only way
you will, it's the only path by which you can
get closer to Jesus Christ is but it must be
a choice of choice of free will. And Islam does
not believe in free will. They believe in submission, and
Judaism believes in exclusion, so they don't line up with this.

(01:28:19):
Only Christianity works this way, and this is something that
makes it unique and also makes it hated by the
other two religions. So just worth just something to put
out there. And I know there's different denominations and some
of them are crazy, like Mormonism is absolutely weird and insane.
But I think the baseline assumption that we all have
free will and that is where are values of freedom

(01:28:44):
and individuality come from. That's the thing that has to
go because it is ultimately really masculine, okay, And that's
why they attack men, and that's why they attack Christians
and white people, because all of those things come together
with a similar from a similar sub value system. But anyway,
those are just my thoughts on that. Let me know

(01:29:05):
what you guys think about this in the comments. Maybe
you disagree. It's fine just putting out my opinion on there.
So let's get to the last story here. It's gonna
be a slightly longer than normal sausage, all right. So
we have another bit of enrichment that happened in England.
So on November one, twenty twenty five, Anthony Williams, a

(01:29:29):
thirty two year old British man from Petersborough, allegedly carried
out a series of violent knife attacks that began in
the early hours at Pontoon Doc DLR station in East London,
where he stabbed a passenger in the face, causing serious injuries.
Later that evening, around seven thirty pm, Williams boarded an
l N e R high speed train from Doncaster to

(01:29:51):
London's King's Cross at Petersborough station and launched an indiscriminate
rampage wielding a large kitchen knife and stabbed eleven people
across multiple carriages. The attack triggered panic as passengers pulled
emergency alarms, leading the train to divert and stop at
Huntington station in Cambridgeshire, where armed police arrested Williams within

(01:30:12):
minutes using a taser. Among the victims was an l
N e R staff member who heroically intervened to project
protect passengers and remain in critical but stable condition. The
other ten victims, including passengers of various ages, were hospitalized
with injuries ranging from stab wounds to lacerations, though most
have I.

Speaker 3 (01:30:33):
Get l l NY our trains all the time. By
the way, it's London Northeast Railway trains. Oh yeah, I
even I even change at Peterborough quite a lot. Who
that that's that's not me? Uh, narrowing down the docks
is it's like, like's trains to go all the way
from London to to Scotland. Yeah, so it affects a

(01:30:54):
great deal of people and I'm like, every time I visit,
my parents are going to be thinking is that going
to be me? Not going to be next time?

Speaker 1 (01:31:02):
Jesus. Police are investigating potential links between Williams and three
prior incidents in Petersborough, Peterborough on October thirty first and
November one, including the stabbing of a fourteen year old
boy with minor injuries, and two reports of a man
brandishing a knife at a local barbershop, where CCTV footage
captured Williams pacing outside shortly before the attacks. Authorities have

(01:31:26):
ruled out terrorism or organized crime motives, stating Williams acted
alone and was not known to counter terrorism services, So
I guess that's that. On November third, he appeared at
Petersborough Peterborough Magistrate's Court, confirming his name and age, but
listing no fixed abode as his address. He was remanded

(01:31:46):
in custody without entering pleas and faces eleven counts of
attempted murder, one count of actual bodily harm and two
counts of possession of a bladd article, with his next
hearing set for December first at Cambridge Crown Court. The
incident has prompted heightened rail security station closures and service disruptions,
while drawing condemnation from King Charles and calls from politicians

(01:32:09):
for stronger measures against rising knife crime in the UK.
You've got to ban the knives harder. And but one
thing I will say is that there were I think
it was like four men that were involved in trying
to stop this thing. And I know you guys have
a lot to say on this, but all I will
say is this. I don't know the media. From what

(01:32:29):
I understand, they have pivoted to let's talk about knives
some more and away from well, we don't want to
be racist. But one thing that I'm not seeing is
he heard the heroic men that stepped in, And you know,
of course not, but I just want to give that highlight.

(01:32:50):
I will look for I think there are pictures of
the guys that helped stop this, so I'm gonna look
those up while you guys give your thoughts.

Speaker 3 (01:32:58):
Yeah, for if we don't have any Daniel, any Daniel Pennies,
we have very few Daniel Pennies in Britain. We've we've
long since learned our lesson that no, you know, you
don't even try to defend yourself. You just let them
sab you, otherwise the fucking government will kill you. And yeah,
let's let's get back to the description of this man.

(01:33:20):
British man. Yeah, that's what we're calling it once again.
I mean, he certainly has a British sounding name. What
was it, Anthony, Anthony Williams. Yeah, but a quick glance
at the CCTV pictures that you're looking at right now,
we'll have a lot of people thinking he doesn't look British,

(01:33:43):
and anyone who says that will be arrested for racism.
You know, many of my peers will merely take that
direction and only point to the pattern, albeit the perfectly
applicable pattern, that these brutal stabbing crimes are indeed committed

(01:34:05):
very disproportionately by people who do not look British. Is
that why they're committing these crimes, because they don't look
British or because they're not British. Well maybe it does
seemed to be a factor, But to be honest, I
would not handicap myself with such skin deep patterns, because

(01:34:26):
I can see a deeper pattern if, in theory, the
event that such a horrific violent crime is committed by
a white British man whose family has been here for centuries.
I would not struggle to attribute such crimes to the
same common genetic or phenotypical factor. It's something I've taken

(01:34:47):
pains to pint out as often as I can. If
anyone in Britain, white, black, brown, or other has the
misfortune of turning on the television or reading a newspaper,
or reading an online newspaper, they will be subjected to
the same propaganda. This propaganda is practically unavoidable, even if

(01:35:12):
you're trying to avoid it. The narrative across the entirety
of the British press is that the native British people
are all irredeemable racists, that even the peasants on the trains,
who never did shit to anyone nevertheless, are somehow the

(01:35:33):
benefactors of centuries of racist colonialism. Even if you're just
a nine year old girl minding your own goddamn business,
the fact that you can even afford to mind your
own business is only afforded to you because because your
ancestors ransacked the world for resources, and now the care

(01:35:58):
free life you live, even as a nine year old girl,
is the result of racist war crimes. So You're just
as culpable as the kings and the parliamentarians who enacted
discolonialism fucking centuries ago. It doesn't matter how innocent you
appear to be, or how selflessly or non violently you

(01:36:21):
have lived your life. It doesn't even matter how staunch
that you commit yourself to the anti racism into which
you are compelled. You are still British and all British
people are the benefactors of racism. So you need to
be punished. You deserve to be punished. This is what

(01:36:44):
the media is telling everyone in Britain, from dawn to dusk,
from fucking twilight to starlight, from daytime to prime time,
even on children's television. The whole thing is wall to
wall propaganda that is compelled to push this political message,
and only this political message. The British people deserve nothing.

(01:37:08):
They deserve less than nothing. The British people deserve to
have everything taken from them, and they are not permitted
to complain about it. So it stands to reason when
British people hear this message, they mostly feel guilty. They
manifest this message by hating other British people, but also

(01:37:31):
by hating themselves, and that sort of balances out. They
react by bitching at their fellow Brits and voting for
policies that redistribute wealth and resources to everyone who is
not British. Whereas when non British people, especially visibly non
British people, hear this message about about how they have

(01:37:55):
been oppressed by the native British for centuries and still
are being oppressed by us, even the nine year old girls,
they get extremely resentful and angry and retributive to the
point of psychosis. And that's why these psychotic crimes are
committed so disproportionately by people of non British origins. So

(01:38:23):
we can claim that they're committing these crimes because they
are non British, perhaps because of their non British culture,
or maybe even because of their non British genetics. But
I would just like to remind everyone of this phenomenon
we call stochastic terrorism. That's when a propagandist tells everyone

(01:38:47):
that a certain people is certain race, in this case
of the British people, and the British race deserves everything.
It gets like, we're not telling you that you should
tell the British people. We're just saying if you do
they had it coming. And if and when you do

(01:39:08):
terrorize the British people and rape them and stab them,
we in the British media will go ahead and gently
brush it under the rug so nobody knows it's happening.
And in the event that a British person so much
as says boo to a black Swan will be sure
to get you all as outraged as possible. To summarize,

(01:39:32):
I'm not saying that there's nothing genetic about these patterns.
I'm not saying that there's nothing extra cultural about these patterns.
I'm just pointing out the internal cultural patterns. If the
British mainstream media really wanted to prevent all of these crimes,

(01:39:58):
they would stop actively encouraging these crimes. But they don't
and they won't. The purpose of a system is what
it does, and the purpose of the British mainstream media
is to destroy the British people. It's bad even up

(01:40:20):
for debate at this point, it couldn't be more obvious.
So by all means, deport by all means, stop the boats,
by all means, we need mass remigration asap. That stands
to reason, But we have another huge problem on top
of all of this. We call it the BBC. Well,

(01:40:42):
we call it everything that's under offcomes remit we have, well,
it's the eye of Sauron. To be perfectly fucking honest,
we have a force of evil that is warping everyone's
minds from a distance, while safely guarded in its tower
in Mordor where Maybe the Lord of the Rings metaphor

(01:41:06):
doesn't really work, since the sour On that torments us
is not of the ox, it's not of the Urucai.
It is of man himself. It is London. It is
the capital of the better than you community. It has

(01:41:26):
long since been captured by the forces of ecophobia. It's
as though Gondor has already been taken by the dark forces,
and it only uses the beacons to trick us into
advancing against Rohan and eventually the Shire. It is so

(01:41:50):
much worse than our heroic mythology even predicted the quest
on which we might send Frodo. It's far more fraught
with danger than we have ever even been prepared to imagine.
In fact, Frodo has already become another Gollumn. Even Sam

(01:42:12):
has become another Gollumn. Maybe it's about time we just
send the fucking giant eagles, right. I know you'll keep saying,
but we can't send the giant eagles to carry the
the One Ring because the eagles would be corrupted by it,
just like men or elves or wizards or dwarves would

(01:42:34):
be corrupted by the One Ring. We have to send
hobbits to do it. But my dude, every hobbit we
sent to destroy the One Ring has become corrupted by it.
It's not working. Maybe this romantic fantasy of yours was
never going to work. Maybe we should just send in

(01:42:56):
the giant eagles, not with the One Ring, but with
a god nuke.

Speaker 1 (01:43:02):
Fuck the Ring.

Speaker 3 (01:43:04):
Let's just new to the bustards. For legal reasons, I
should elaborate that I am. I am, of course being metaphorical.
I don't literally mean we should new London, but I
do mean we should figuratively new London. What would that
entail our, dear listeners. I don't know. It's fucking complicated.

(01:43:28):
Maybe I'll sit down for fifteen years and write an
epic fantasy novel that makes more sense than Tolkien could
have envisage. Fine, wish me luck. I hope we still
have a country fifteen years from now. In the meantime,
just stop watching TV, stop watching the Eye of Souron,

(01:43:50):
and do your best to encourage your normal friends and
your normally family to stop watching the Eye of suron.
Best of luck, I'll be sat here with my dick
in my hand and Satan's balls in my mouth. I'll
see you on whatever side we're headed for, doctor random
account montanus.

Speaker 2 (01:44:12):
So we all just have to learn to stop worrying
and love the bomb. That's what it is. But in
all seriousness, this is a thing that's been known for millennia.
Like men have known it, women have known it, governments
have known it. And the way governments respond to that knowledge,

(01:44:37):
and and the their choices in how the public of
their nations are able to use that knowledge, will inform
you as to the nature of your government, whether it
is in any way you know, neutral, with some parts

(01:45:01):
being in any way benevolent, or whether it's all malicious
one hundred percent malicious. It's at least partially malicious. Your government,
no matter where you live, your government is at least
partially malicious. But it's always been known as soon as

(01:45:21):
the concept of crime violent crime existed, and even before that,
when it was just tribalism and people being violent toward
each other in interpersonal conflicts with no government telling them
that it was a crime. It's always been known that

(01:45:42):
the biggest deterrent to interpersonal violence is the prospect of
immediate consequences that are intolerable to the perpetrator. Some countries
respond to this by taking away to process rights, and
as soon as you are caught engaging in any kind

(01:46:03):
of crime, you face consequences on the spot and intolerable
at that things like having your hand cut off, or
your eye poked out, or being thrown off of building.
But other countries have tried to preserve a right of
self defense, with some success varying degrees. In the US,

(01:46:28):
these successes have been mitigated the federal level. Successes have
been mitigated by local level despots that do things like
presuming you guilty of being as aggressive as your aggressor
if you defend yourself against an assailant. But in the

(01:46:50):
UK they took away the tools for it, and when
that resulted in more violent crime against the person of
the citizens of the country, the government is responding by
threatening to take away more tools for potential self defense

(01:47:12):
and punishing people for brandishing tools of self defense in
the face of people who are significantly more capable than
they are of engaging in violence because of size and
gender and so on. And what I mean by capable

(01:47:34):
of engaging in violence is not that women are less
capable of engaging, but that women are less skilled at
creating an outcome with that violence than men are. And
part of it is because you know, women don't have
the strength or the size. We are not equal. So
when when one is engaging in defense, to punish one

(01:47:56):
for engaging in defense against an adult when she's a kid,
that's particularly egregious. But in any case like this is
pretty much a major sign of despotism. Taking away your
ability to defend yourself against an aggressor when there are

(01:48:21):
potentially guns going to be present, there's less knife crime
because nobody wants to bring a knife to a gunfight.
And when the home a criminal might consider breaking into
might have a gun in it, people are less likely
to break into homes. The more people are in control

(01:48:46):
of their own self defense, the less likely people are
to aggress against them. The more capable they are in
their own self defense, the more access they have to
the tools of self defense, the less likely an attacker
is to actually do anything to them, because again, they

(01:49:11):
don't want to face immediate, intolerable repercussions consequences. Nobody wants
to be shot unless there's something really wrong with their head.
Nobody wants to be stabbed, nobody wants to have the
shit kicked out of them, and nobody wants to go
to jail. So that's the solution. To give people the

(01:49:34):
ability in the freedom to defend their own space, their
own homes, their own person their own families, their own country,
and stop restricting access to those tools. But unfortunately, there

(01:49:55):
is a huge faction in politics all over the world
that is using situations like this to try to convince
people that the best way to prevent violent crime is
for you to give up the tools of self defense.

(01:50:17):
It doesn't make sense when it's described that way, so
of course they don't describe your tools of self defense
that way. They describe them as tools of aggression, even
though you've never used them that way and you never would.
That indicates that they're engaging in bad faith arguments and

(01:50:41):
you shouldn't listen to them. And when people do, it's
because they're lazy. It is a lot easier to just
accept the idea that taking away the individual's tools for
self defense will prevent criminals who obtain those tools legally,

(01:51:01):
regardless of what the the rest of the population does.
When it's legislated that you can't have them from from
attacking them, you can't argue that the way that it's
it's it's actually true. You can't argue that the way
that it that it actually is the the you know,

(01:51:24):
the way that the real way that it is and
sound rational that you know, Yeah, we should take people's
self defense tools away so that less crime will happen. No,
it doesn't work that way. So from now on, anytime
you hear crime cited as a reason, any type of

(01:51:47):
crime cited, is a reason why your tools of self
defense should be taken away. Point out what they're arguing,
point out the stupidity of their argument, make fun of them,
and bully them for it, because that's the only way
to shut these assholes up, and it's the only way
to make it unpopular to make those arguments. Again, Like,

(01:52:12):
I think that people should be inherently mean when it
comes to this. You're you're right to stop someone from
hurting you taking your shit, harming your family and taking
over your neighborhood should not be infringed. And there is

(01:52:35):
no but but this butt of that butt my school shootings,
No but my kids playing with guns, Well, don't let
kids play with guns. Hold the parents responsible. That's it.
That doesn't mean that other people shouldn't be able to

(01:52:57):
defend themselves. If you don't want a gun, don't buy one.
If you don't want a knife, don't buy one. So
there you go. That's that's what we have to do.

Speaker 1 (01:53:10):
Yep. All right, Well thanks for your thoughts on that.
And uh yeah, I mean so I did look it up,
and there were some people who worked for the rail
that confronted the attacker head on, shielding passengers and attempting
to disarm him. There is CCTV footage reviewed by the

(01:53:35):
British Transport Police that showed he ran towards danger and
blocked the knife bind from advancing through the carriages. He
learned he sustained life threatening injuries, stab multiple times and
remains in critical but stable condition in hospital. Then there
was that was a l N e RT rail worker

(01:53:55):
named Samir Zeituni. And then there was an unnamed male
pass witnesses described a man likely in his thirties to
forties that was slash in the face, who intervened to
protect a young girl from the attacker, positioning himself between
her and the knife. He was hospitalized but has since
been discharged. Passenger Thomas mclalen McLachlan told BBC there were

(01:54:20):
definitely many heroes on that day. He was trying to
protect a young girl from being attacked. So I just
wanted to put a little bit of a highlight on
the men that stepped in and put their safety and
danger to protect the innocence from this maniac, because they will.

(01:54:41):
I mean, obviously the media is going to put a
focus on the offender and not the defenders. So that's
kind of like what I wanted to do there, all right,
So that is going to be it for the show today.
Slightly longer than normal sausage, so maybe a bit of
a shorter after show, I'm afraid, but we are to
go to the after show. Now, we're gonna look at

(01:55:01):
this article from the Baptist News where they're sort of
like looking back at the very viral conversation between Tucker
Carlson and Nick Fuentes and The problem with it was
none of the other stuff they talked about, just when
women came up, and that Carlton and well especially Fuentes

(01:55:24):
basically declares that women are a problem for young men today.
So we're gonna look at that and maybe talk pretty
mild Patron Show.

Speaker 2 (01:55:32):
Huh that's pretty mild.

Speaker 1 (01:55:34):
Yeah, well he was. He was pretty mild. But I
do feel like another video where he goes into more
of what he wanted to talk about because they only
had so much time. But we'll look at it in

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
