#948: Defeating Death With Dr. Joseph P. Farrell
126 min
•Dec 6, 20254 months agoSummary
Dr. Joseph P. Farrell discusses the theological and historical roots of Western decline, arguing that America was founded on anti-tradition principles that have led to cultural collapse. He critiques modern evangelicalism, central banking systems, and the manufactured culture designed to weaken society, while advocating for a return to traditional Christianity and historical church teachings.
Insights
- America's founding as an explicitly anti-tradition nation has created a spiritual and cultural vacuum that is being filled with manufactured, destructive ideologies rather than organic cultural development
- Modern evangelical Christianity has been deliberately corrupted through dispensationalism and Zionist theology, disconnecting believers from 2,000 years of church tradition and authentic Christian teaching
- Central banking systems operate as a coordinated mafia that has been deliberately breaking down and patching the global economy, now showing signs of panic as their system collapses
- The digitization of currency and elimination of cash is the final step in total population control, allowing authorities to freeze accounts and manipulate behavior through financial coercion
- Evil operates through the perversion of natural goods rather than creating new things, which is why all modern culture appears twisted, ugly, and spiritually destructive by design

Quotes
"The greatest misunderstanding is that people have this idea that Nazism as a political and ideological system is a philosophy of the right. It's not. The name of the Nazi party was Die Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, the National Socialist German Workers Party."
Dr. Joseph P. Farrell
"Under socialism, man is number one, not fallen, and number two, perfectible without divine grace. And what that means in practice is under socialism, corruption reigns it becomes the rule of the day."
Dr. Joseph P. Farrell
"We've been at war somewhere around 230 or 240 years out of our 250-year existence. This country was set up to be this way. The country was set up as an empire from the very beginning."

We're very excited to have our next guest on. His last episode was pure fire, and I've seen some of his talking points. This one's going to be just like that. Please welcome back to the show Dr. Joseph P. Farrell. How are you, sir? I'm good. Thanks for having me back. Well, thanks for coming back. Everyone loved your last episode. You're a legend, and we're glad to have you. So for those who may not be familiar with your last appearance or may not know who you are, can you tell us a little bit about yourself and where our listeners can find you? Well, I write crazy books in the alternative research field. You can find me at my website, which is called Giza, Death Star, G-I-Z-A, and then Death Star, all one word. That's where I have my blog. and then there's a pay area to the website where there's a little extra stuff, and that's where we have our vid chats. But that's me. How many books do you have? Right now I think it's about 45, somewhere in there. Oh, wow. Nice. Yeah. That's incredible. That's incredible. It's a lot of work. It's a lot of work, but it's as close as men are ever going to get to childbirth. writing a book and women are like whatever i might tell you it's labor it's labor it's labor um so you know we live in this kind of uh time in america culture where everyone's being called a nazi you know i mean even in canada you have politicians calling truckers nazis why these politicians, grandfathers, or literal Nazis. It's like this weird thing. It's this kind of term that's just been thrown at everybody and anything that they don't like. You see those famous memes of those kids' books, which is like Hitler riding down a rainbow. It's like anyone I disagree with is a Nazi. It's a crazy kind of term, but you've done a lot of research into Nazis. Before we get into it, this might sound like a weird question. What do you think the greatest misunderstanding of Nazis or the entire Nazi story is? Well, I think the greatest misunderstanding is that people have this idea that Nazism as a political and ideological system is a philosophy of the right, of the political right. It's not. The name of the Nazi party, its official name, was Die Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, the National Socialist German Workers Party. Well, Nazism was a form of socialism known as fascism. And, you know, Mussolini's definition of fascism was probably the best that there is, that he gave, is that in that system, property ownership remained private, but the policy-making decisions were left in the hands of the government. So, in other words, the government told property owners, including corporations, what you were going to do. So, in other words, this is not a philosophy of the right. It's a philosophy of the political left. And that's the biggest misconception that people have to this day. You know, Bolshevism in Stalin's Russia was a kind of national socialism of its own because Trotsky, of course, wanted to extend the Bolshevik Revolution immediately on a global scale. And, of course, he lost out to Stalin, who says, no, we've got to apply socialism nationally inside the Soviet Union first and then export it. So, in other words, basically Bolshevism in the Soviet Union becomes its own kind of national socialism. So you have that misconception. The other misconception is that I'm watching this, I don't know what else to call it, this crazy revisionist history idea that Hitler was a man of peace and, you know, the war was actually started by Winston Churchill and Neville Chamberlain, you know. Yeah. All of this goofy nonsense. Yeah. It is. It really is. So, you know, the way the United States, I think, has degenerated into this is, you know, they wore out the term racist by accusing so many people of being racist that the term lost any potency or efficacy. So now everybody's a Nazi. Yes. You're also seeing that with anti-Semitism, too. Yes, exactly. They called everybody anti-Semite. Yeah, everybody's an anti-Semite if you criticize Israel. Well, I'm at the front of the line criticizing Israel. So, you know, call me whatever you want. So I want to say a Nazism, but I just want to ask a question. We often hear with communism that it's about seizing the means of production. I don't know if actually people realize what that means. To you, what does that mean? It means exactly what it says, that under the Bolshevik system, all ownership becomes state, state-owned. So that's one of the distinguishing differences between Bolshevism and Nazism or fascism. Because under the Nazi regime, for example, the Krupp armaments works remained in the hands of the Krupp stockholders. They just had to do what the government told them. In the Soviet Union, all of those companies that existed, you know, Mikoyan, Sukhoi, you know, the companies that build their aircraft, in other words. All of those became state-owned. So the state literally owns everything. And the other thing that happens that people really have to latch on to, because we're seeing this system, they're attempting to put this system into place in this country and in the West right now. And that is that the money, the Russian ruble under the Soviet Union's system, the Russian ruble became a tokenized asset. Why? Because theoretically everybody, the people in the country owned all of the national assets. So the ruble was backed. It was a tokenized backed asset that everybody owned a fraction of that asset. Okay, so in other words, the ruble became basically worthless because the asset backing it up was so minuscule and a small little token of something. Well, they're trying to do that now. Here's the example right here. That's an Oklahoma goldback, and I don't know if you can read the bottom of it. It says one two thousandth troy ounce of gold. That's the amount of gold content in this thing. So, in other words, they can pretend this is backed, but I can't take this to my bank and get one two thousandth of a troy ounce of gold. Right. That's the problem. That's the problem. And that was what it was about. Like, this note meant you owned this much of gold and you couldn't turn it in for gold, right? Right. Exactly. You know, that's why it's a tokenized asset. So in other words, this is another banker's swindle. We're going back to gold-backed money. Oh, really? So, you know, $1,000, $2,000, you know, if I scrape all the gold off of this piece of plastic, I might be able to get a little fleck of gold, and this is what you're going to take to the grocery store to buy your groceries? I'm sorry. No. That dog don't hunt. But, yeah, that's the system of currency, basically, that the Soviet Union had, because the currency was backed by the assets of the state, which owned everything. So the currency became a tokenized asset. So do I understand that when you compare Nazism to communism in a weird way, Nazism at least lets you own property? Is that the difference? That's exactly correct. The only problem is you couldn't dispose of your property as you wish. The state was there to tell you how to do it. So in other words, yeah, it's all kind of a fiction because if the state is disposing of the policy or how you want to dispose of your property, do you really own it? Well, answer no. So the wonderful fiction here is you're responsible for property ownership under the law, but the state tells you what to do with it. You know, talk about goofy and loony, but that's, you know, that's the system. And in Mussolini's Italy, it got to the point that the fascist party ran, it created these syndicates where the governing boards of large Italian companies like Olivetti or Fiat or Ansaldo, you know, companies like that, had their representatives seated on the fascist councils. And if you look very carefully at modern-day Germany, there is a very similar arrangement in Germany about how the government runs and allows labor unions to sit on corporate boards and so on. It's all goofy. I don't know how else to describe it. It's all consolidation of power, right? Exactly, exactly. It's all centralization of power, and boy, that's worked out really well, hasn't it? You know, I don't know if this is going to be a weird question, but there just seems to be this role of trust fund kids and rich kids who really haven't felt any pain and suffering from the moment they took their first breath. They're born in the best hospitals, go home to gated communities, go to the best private schools, get used into the best colleges, get internships at the biggest corporations out there. And for some reason, they just want to rail against their fathers. But at the end of the day, they end up just consolidating more power under authority. Right, right. And I would add they consolidate more power under incompetent authority because these people are fundamentally stupid. they're fundamentally stupid they really are Einstein's definition of insanity was trying the same old thing and thinking it's going to work out differently every time you try it how many times do we have to try the experiment with socialism to figure out it doesn't work and their whole thing is that well this isn't pure socialism this isn't real communism but I don't know how you can have any of that when you're always going to have alphas, psychopaths, incredibly brilliant people that are smarter than everybody else that can figure out ways to game the system to, again, eventually consolidate power. I don't understand how it's going to be any different ever. The problem with those systems is that they, you know, the interesting thing when you compare the kind of capitalism we've been living under and socialism is there's one crucial difference. And it's not so much a difference about the economic system, it's a difference about their doctrine of man. Under socialism, man is, number one, not fallen, and number two, perfectible, without divine grace. And, of course, what that means in practice is under socialism, corruption reigns it becomes the rule of the day and that's why ultimately it ultimately fails because you're trying to live a utopian doctrine in a fallen world that's the problem yes capitalism on the other hand says well we are fallen and there's going to be corruption and if you doubt me go read Alexander Hamilton's Federalist Papers he puts corruption front and center and he's all for it I'm not a big fan of Al Hamilton for that reason, but at least he's honest in that respect. I agree. So, you know, these systems are as different as night and day. I mean, we just elected an Islamist mayor of New York City. That's so crazy, dude. You know, I wonder how Islamism is going to work out, you know, any better than just plain old communism. I don't know. I agree, and it's very weird because, you know, as you look at, like, there's so much data from history about this doesn't work out. I mean, if you just go to Europe and all these Islamic mayors that have just completely destroyed their city, and yet nobody wants to look at that. And it's this weird statistic that, like, the demographic that gets the most money spent on them, meaning people are spending money for them, are females 18 to, like, 32 years old. If you look at Mondani's voting, who vote for him, 18 to 32-year-old female progressives, which is the number one demographic that people spend money on, all voted for Mondani at a rate of like 80%. And it's like, it's this term that you're seeing everywhere now, like suicidal empathy. Like to literally vote against your own best interest. Does that remind you anything of Bernie Sanders? because it was the same. I remember that was like when I was 18, 20, there was Bernie. But now it's Mondavi, which I'm like, yo, it's kind of the same thing, but just since he's like. At least with him you got the anti-war element. That was really important to bring a lot of people into the Bernie tent. I wasn't one of them, obviously. Every guy who's ran since 9-11 has ran on I'm going to stop war. And every one of them, the day they took their oath, completely stabbed their voters in the back and just increased war. every time. It's like they say, no matter who you vote for, you end up getting John McCain. Every time. Or B.B. Netanyahu. Yeah, 100%. 100%. It's a phenomenon that, don't get me started on feminism and the results on modern culture. I'm a traditionalist curmudgeon. But there are a number of studies, many of them from Canada, that have appeared in recent years. One book I'm thinking of is a book called Sanctifying Missandry by two Canadian scholars that have studied the effects of these pro-feminist policies and judicial decisions in their country. Another book, they followed that book up with a book called Legalizing Missandry. So, you know, this is definitely a phenomenon, this war against men and this promotion of emotional incompetent stupid women wearing nose rings and their nasal septum and, you know, all sorts of weirdness. You know, good luck finding a husband that way, ladies. And the worst part of it is that the older feminists straight up lie to the younger feminists because misery loves company. They just straight up lie to them. Yeah, I think that's definitely the case. So, you know, the culture is a mess. I don't personally see a political solution that's going to fix it. This is a cultural and spiritual problem that we're facing. and it's not going to get better until we quit trying to fix the problem by a misdiagnosis and say all we have to do is elect the right guy. The other problem, as you point out, is we elect these politicians on the basis of, well, let's put America first and stop these endless wars. But nothing happens to stop the endless wars. You know, this country is coming up on its 250th anniversary as a nation. And I read a statistic somewhere recently where we've been at war somewhere around 230 or 240 years out of our 250-year existence. Now, that to me is a sad statistic. It's a fulfillment of Al Hamilton, that very first paragraph of the very first Federalist paper. What does he call the country? He doesn't call it a republic. He doesn't call it a democracy. The word he uses right there in the first paragraph of the first Federalist paper is empire. So the country was set up to be this way. The other problem that I think, you know, that Americans have to address very honestly is the MAGA movement, I think, had a fatal flaw in that it was by being America first, it did not focus on foreign policy enough, and therefore the people left in charge of America's foreign policy are the John McCains and the Lindsey Graham crackers and, you know, the Mitch McConnells and the Chuck Schumers and, you know, people of that ilk. And so nothing has changed in our foreign policy. As a matter of fact, I would argue it's gotten much worse. Yes, I agree. I agree. Hey, guys, real quick, I want to talk to you about the evil beast banking system. It is purposely destroying the value of your dollar.

Never again. You know, we argue about who runs the world. You know, the United States gets blamed for everything. Now, you've seen in the last couple of years Israel being blamed, and maybe they're the head of the snake. But for me, and I've said this before on the show, it's almost like Mad Max in the Terror Dome when they're in the dome, and Max is fighting the giant idiot with the tiny little guy on his back, and, like, America is the big muscle idiot, and England is the tiny guy. But really above it all is Tina Turner at the top, who is, in my humble opinion, the Bank of England and their role in almost like everything. They've destroyed China, they've destroyed Germany, they've destroyed Russia, and like we're kind of in line for that exact treatment. Do you have any thoughts on that? Am I way off on that? No, I don't think you're off. If there's anything off about your take, it may be ascribing too much power to the Bank of England. It certainly remains a prominent financial factor. I would simply argue that what you're seeing in the breakdown of the modern economy is that the economy has been run for the last 500 years by a mafia called central banksters. And up to a certain point in history, they coordinated their policies rather well. What I'm seeing now is all the signs of panic because everything they're trying is breaking down. You know, they've patched the system so many times, it's no longer the same quilt. It's a completely new quilt. So, yeah, you know, the Bank of England certainly remains a power, but the banks that I would personally focus on with respect to, you know, a financial manipulation behind the scenes of the world is the Bank of International Settlements. I agree. in Basel, the World Bank, the Central Bank of Europe in Frankfurt, I'd focus on entities like that more than national central banks like the Bank of England or the Federal Reserve and so on. There are other entities I think people need to focus on as well, like the Exchange Stabilization Fund in this country. but yeah is there a financial plutocratic class trying to manipulate world events and drive them in a certain direction absolutely David Rockefeller in his memoirs told us that bluntly and then he said I'm not only behind this effort I'm proud of it so okay you're boasting that you've committed treason Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that you're proud of it. Okay, fine. So, you know, the hip cool thing on Twitter now is to blame the Jews for everything. Part of this B system, I think, is above the Abrahamic religions, and they almost use them to manipulate everything to cause fights with anything. Do you have any thoughts? I know we had a couple notes here that talked about Nephilim. and, you know, it's also known as the watchers, the people who worship these dark entities. Do you think it is any of the Abrahamic religions, or do you think it's a much older Babylonian-type belief system that is embedded at the highest levels of all of these religions? Like in Judaism, we see the little black cube on top of their head, and, you know, Mecca, they go around a black cube. Is there a higher level that maybe most people's elevators don't get to that they might not understand? Well, that is a horribly complex question. Most of my life in some way or fashion and in most of my books I'm dealing with that question. Even if it's only kind of lurking in the background, it's always there. The black cube on the head, by the way, that's called a phylactery. Yeah. Okay. I do not think the Jews are to blame or behind it all. Okay. Yeah, I agree. I, if you're going to place blame on a group of people that practice Judaism, I would say blame the Zionists more than Jewish people. I agree. And they're not the same. You know, this is the other thing that people have to get through their head. I think Zionism, as many Jewish scholars, when Israel was founded, pointed out, was a danger. And, you know, I didn't say that. Alfred Lilienthal said it. Hannah Arendt said it. You know, they were pointing out the inherent problems of the way things were going to go with the appearance of a Zionist state. And those were Jews. so I think the first thing that people have to get out of their head is equating Israel with Judaism Israel in my opinion has a right to exist does it have a right to go in and slaughter Palestinians no sorry it doesn't nor do Palestinians have a right to go into Israel and slaughter Israelis that's just normal humanity I do not think that Israel has any special status with Christianity because Christianity is the fulfillment of all those promises to the ancient Hebrew people. And therefore, my interest in Israel is not theological, period. the Abrahamic religions I think are yes I think to a great extent there is an attempt on the part of the powers that be to manipulate them and particularly to manipulate them with respect to their eschatological expectations because all three of them have certain expectations about the end times. And, you know, in Islam, the appearance of the Imam Mahdi, in Judaism, the first coming of the Messiah, and in Christianity, the second coming of the Messiah. The problem is that most Christians misunderstand what that second coming means, particularly in this country. So, yeah, are they being manipulated? Yes. Is there something standing behind them of a demonic nature? That is also a complex question Because if you look at the behavior of Yahweh in the Old Testament if you read the first five books of Moses the first five books of the Old Testament, he's a rather bloodthirsty character. I mean, there's just no two ways to put it. But by the time you get to the prophets, that character has changed completely. It's almost like you're reading about someone entirely different. By the time you get to the New Testament, there's that famous statement of Christ in the Gospel of St. John. You are of your father, the devil, and he was a liar and murderer from the beginning. Oh, my God. Yeah, that's right out of the Gospel of St. John. What does that mean? What does that mean? So, well, it means, number one, you've got to be careful when you're dealing with the Old Testament outside of the New Testament perspective. That's what it means. so in other words yeah that promise fulfillment thing is real and it's very complex but what you see happening is you see people viewing rather than viewing the Old Testament in the light of the New they're trying to interpret the New Testament in the light of the Old and that's where all this modern American Christian dispensationalists we got to pay attention to Israel and bless the Israelis because if we don't God's going to curse us and that means in effect that we can't criticize Israel for anything they do even how immoral it is so you know this is the problem so on my website you know people that are familiar with my website I keep warning people the fulfillment meaning the supposed fulfillment of biblical prophecy or if you're a Muslim the supposed fulfillment of Quranic prophecy and so on and so forth, that the fulfillment itself is the deception. Why? It's very simple. In American dispensationalist thinking, we have to pay attention to Israel because when they rebuild the temple, that's the signal for the end times. And by the way, that's always been common Christian teaching. But the problem is it does not confer special privileges to Israel. Why? Because in the New Testament, Christ says, destroy this temple and I will raise it up in three days. He's talking about his body. He's talking about the church. He's not talking about a building where you twist the neck of a turtle dove and sprinkle the blood on the altar. That's what he's talking about. That's over. That's done. It has nothing to do with the Christian message. That's the problem. So, you know, the essence of it is you've got all these people thinking that we've got to pay attention to Israel, Israel, Israel, and Antichrist and the second return of Christ could happen any minute now. But the problem is that his kingdom is not of this world. The resurrection is about the conquest of the kingdom of death. Pure and simple. Period. It has nothing to do with that. I want to use very nasty language. You're welcome to do it. It has nothing to do with that little turd of a country floating in the punch bowl of the Middle East. Nothing. Nothing. The only thing that we're told is when they start doing this stuff, then, yeah, you're in the end times and you can expect the Antichrist any minute now. But as for Christ coming back and kicking out Antichrist and setting himself up in the restored temple and ruling with a rod of iron, please note that in the dispensational scheme, the only way that you can tell the difference between Antichrist and Christ is the order of their appearance. It is not based in their character. I hope everybody just heard me. Yes. Because if you have misinterpreted, just imagine for a moment, all you biblical scholars out there that set up your shingle and have your Bible churches, if you're wrong and you have misinterpreted the chronological order, how do you tell the difference between the two? which one rose from the dead which one reverses the kingdom of death doesn't look like much of it to me in the standard dispensationalist interpretation so in other words get your get your eyes on eternity and on heaven and not on rebuilt temples and a turd of a country in the Middle East causing problems for everybody else and by the way all those other countries causing problems for the little turd of the country. What is this? And this is really the problem that you're seeing right now. I didn't mean to get off on this tangent. No, that was fire. But your question prompts it. But, you know, we're watching right now, I think, something amazing happen. I've been waiting for this to happen most of my life because I have never been a dispensationalist, ever. I'm not a pre-tribulational rapturist and all of that nonsense that somehow Christians are going to avoid suffering for their faith in something called the rapture. Because that's what it is. And by the way, there's an early church father by the name of St. Ignatius of Antioch, who was the personal disciple of the Apostle St. John. And he wrote a series of letters, and in one of those letters he says, they, certain heretics, abstained from the Eucharist and prayers and martyred them because they do not allow that our Lord came in the flesh and rose from the dead, and so on and so forth. So in other words, he's not thinking in any remote connection the same way as a modern evangelical dispensationist is thinking. For him, martyrdom is not something to be avoided by some event called the rapture. It's what you do as part of your Christian witness. So, you know, this whole goofy system that America's come up with. But notice what's happened since the Charlie Kirk assassination. There is a growing number of people within evangelicalism who are challenging that whole Zion Christian narrative. Yes. including the term Judeo-Christian, by the way, which is a term that was literally invented and foisted upon Western civilization in the late 19th century, and it really started to gain currency in between the world wars. So prior to that, when people talked about civilization, they talked about Christendom. There was no Judeo thrown in there. It was Christendom, period. so there's another sea change there and by the way that's deliberate and it occurs at approximately the same time as you see that abominable Schofield reference Bible that circulated all these crazy ideas about dispensationalism in the 19th century and by the way who financially backed that Bible well it was a bunch of oil barons from California you know come on guys wake up I'm sorry I'm on a ramp this stuff just absolutely makes my blood boil I'm all about it and this is the shell so it goes where it goes so should there be some sort of concern I don't know when I thought about the rapture and I'm going to be honest with you I'm getting into Christianity more and more I'm really early into my journey I'm trying my best but I guess as a kid or if I ever thought about it, it was like a natural progression through time. But it just seems that this end of days or whatever is happening seems to be getting astroturfed by a group of people who seem to be putting on a production play for the world to follow. And is that a concern to everybody that this is not a natural progression to what is meant to be a giant event that happens through God. Okay, you can only get away with this through ignorance, and I'm going to be very blunt and very direct. If you think you're going to solve all this by reading your Bible, in other words, being a good Protestant, following the Bible and the Bible only, here's the bad news. The Bible does not create the church. The church creates the Bible. Period. If the Bible were able to create the church, you wouldn't have over 40,000 plus little denominations, each with their own special brand of marketing, hanging up a shingle without any connection to Christianity in the previous centuries. That's the problem. So in other words, if you're really going to study the Bible, by golly, study the church fathers who gave you that Bible, and what they said about it and how they interpreted it. Study the St. Basil's of Caesarea and the St. Gregory of Nice's and the St. Gregory of Nazian's and the St. Athanasius's and the St. Ignatius's and the St. Ambrose's of Milan and the St. Hillary. In other words, I'm listing a bunch of guys that most Americans have never even heard of. Why? Because it never occurs to them, if you've got all of these interpretations of the Bible, each one specializing, well, by golly, let's go find out how the early Christians understood these things. And to do that, we've actually got to go read them. So, in other words, what I'm suggesting to you, and I mean this personally as a challenge to you, if you're in court and you're disputing a contract if you're disputing the meaning of a contract and you're going to court to litigate this dispute what's the court going to do? the court is going to look at something that in law is called the course of performance how did those parties act interpreting this contract in similar or other situations, because how they acted is how they're interpreting that contract, that document. So, in other words, there is a doctrine in law that is exactly the same thing as what we call, here it comes, folks, tradition in theology. How do people interpret that text historically and in time? I guarantee you that when you get into this, you're going to discover a whole different way of thinking than the modern evangelical American way of thinking. It's about, it's as far as the east is from the west, if I may quote the psalm. It is absolutely different. So that's the first thing I'm warning you. Don't think you're going to be able to do this just by opening your Bible or opening a Greek lexicon. lexicon, you've got to find out what the people who gave you those books in the Bible actually said. And by the way, why did they give you those books and not some other books? Why not the Gospel of St. Thomas? Why not? Well, there are answers to that question. But you have to read those people to find out what they are. Okay, that's the problem. And no one wants to do the work. Everyone wants to hang out their shingle. You know, look at Charlie Kirk and all the kerfuffle over who gets to claim his legacy. Well, the fact of the matter is Charlie Kirk woke up and was exploring Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy towards the end of his life because he realized this evangelicalism stuff has no historical foundation at all. so I better find out what the heck is going on with this Christianity stuff and find out from the original sources not from Johnny Goblo who set up shop in a strip mall and calls himself a pastor of a church come on there has to be authority I told you I went on my rant again I'm sorry I'm watching all of this and I'm just going wake up people I love it. You know, I love it. I think it's very important, and it's exactly why we have you on is for these rants. It's a rant. 100%. We're inviting Dr. Farrell. It's this time for a purple-faced rant. No, dude. We love it. I love it. Hey, guys, real quick, I want to tell you about our good friends at Masa, okay? Did you know that all chips and fries used to be cooked in a tallow up to the 1990s when big corporations switch to cheap processed seed oils, okay? Today, seed oils make up 20% of the average American's daily calories. And recent studies have linked seed oils to metabolic health issues and inflammation in the body. That's right, Sam. And Masa decided to do something about it. Let's go. They created a tasty and delicious tortilla chip with just three ingredients. And most importantly, no seed oils. Nada. The three ingredients are organic and externalized corn, which if it sounds complicated, it's not. It's a very simple process. Sea salt and 100% grass-fed beef tallow. Yes. These chips don't only avoid all the bad stuff. They also taste incredible. Masa is crunchier, tastier, and sturdier than other chips. That means they're not breaking off in your guac, so you're not eating somebody else's leftovers in your guacamole for a week. Problem solved. Snacking on masa chips is nothing like eating regular chips, if you hadn't gotten that clue already. With masa, you feel satisfied, light, and energetic with no crash, bloat, or gross, sluggish feeling afterwards. And as an added bonus, the beef tallow that makes up the chips is much more satiating, so you won't find yourself uncontrollably binging and still feeling hungry after. Personally, my favorite flavor is probably the churro ones. I also like the standard white corn ones. They're delicious also, but they're all good, honestly. I ate all of them in less than a week. So that should tell you enough. Xavier, your thoughts? Dude, as the Mexican, the lime ones. You want some ceviche with that? Can't go wrong. Let's go, Xavier. Honestly, the ad calls for us to have a bag on set. We would have a bag on set. We would have a bag. We wanted the bag, and then we ate the bag. We ate all of them a week ago. We're like, don't eat all of it. We got to use the bag, and the bag is gone, and it's gone. We ate all of the chips weeks ago. So here's what we need you to do, guys. If you're ready to give Masa a try, go to masachips.com slash tinfoil and use the code tinfoil for 25% off your first order. My God, they're giving it away. That's masachips.com slash tinfoil and the code tinfoil for 25% off your first order. Now, if you don't feel like ordering online, that's fine. Masa is now available nationwide at your local Sprout Supermarket. Stop by and pick up a bag before they're gone. We prefer you order online, though. Thank you. Thank you for sponsoring our show. Johnny, do you have any thoughts? Because Johnny grew up more in an organized religion than the other ones on the show. Actually, were you? We went, but it was just like a Mexican thing. Well, your phrase right there is, to me, a dead giveaway. And it's a typical American attitude. Oh, no. Well, no. No, no, no, hear me up, hear me up. Well, I don't belong to any organized religion. So what does that make you? You're part of a disorganized religion. You know, and that's what, you know, Americans are proud of this. Oh, I don't belong to any organized church. Well, that means you've got a head full of mush, and all of your thoughts about theology are disorganized, inchoate, contradictory, and probably not well thought out. So, yeah, you've got a disorganized religion, and that's the problem. By the way, do you think that's the way the early church was structured? Probably not. No. Guess what, folks? They had little things like apostles and priests and deacons. That's called a hierarchy. And what's a hierarchy? Well, it's called organization. And it had prayers in the book. You know, they weren't all around just making up prayers because they felt like, well, this is what I want to talk about and preach about right now. No, there was ritual. It was organized. As far back as you can go in the documents, it was organized. There are texts of the Mass, of the communion service, that date from the second century. So it was not disorganized. So, you know, take that American idea and throw that to the winds, too. If I just kind of where I'm coming from on that, because there's a lot of people that might think that some of the church structure that in modern day is kind of detachment from God. I totally agree. But here's the question. Here's the question. How and when and why did it become detached? Yeah, I guess. Does that mean the structure itself is co-opted or that structure itself is bad? Now, I look at these megachurches and I see structure, but I see nothing really that says this is Christian. I mean, look at the megachurches. That's kind of what I'm saying. It's an auditorium. If you're lucky, they might have a cross. but usually it's just a bunch of you know bands, rock music drums, guitars, keyboards a podium and it's all about the guy up there talking however if you go to let's say Charche Cathedral in France you know something right off the bat I'm in a church so I'm the one who's Catholic here and every Catholic church is the same it is the same It's the same prayers. Everything's very ritualistic. It's structured. And you go to a Christian church, and he's right. It's not really the same. It's a free-for-all. It's a free-for-all. And here's the other problem. If you study those early Christians, when they get together every Sunday, what are they doing? They're celebrating communion. And that implies a ritual to celebrate it with. That's why all of those prayers are so old. So in other words, yeah, this modern American idea, where is it coming from? Well, it's coming from the fact that when America was founded as a country, what was it founded on? It was founded on the idea of the rejection of tradition. Oh, snap. Also, remember that half the damn New Testament, speaking of the structure you mentioned earlier, are letters Paul wrote to churches to kind of clarify things for them. Right, exactly. Romans, Christians, Galatians, Philippians, Colossians, Thessalonians. Yeah, by the way, I heard you guys are up to this. Stop that right now. That's what he's doing. That's half the New Testament. Yes, exactly. So, you know, America is founded as an anti-tradition tradition. So in other words, we're rejecting all that European stuff. Well, in the process of rejecting it, we've got to come up with our own homegrown version of it because it's better. Oh, really? Yeah. Right. Really? And maybe that's kind of what I was meaning by saying that. I know what you were meaning. It just gave me an opportunity to rant soon. Go off, dude. I'll shut up the whole show. I'm loving all of it. You know, just like, it's just like it seems to me that there's this disconnect path to God. That it's like, people have to understand something about my 45 books. My 45 books include my theological books, okay? And I've always told people, all of my books are interrelated to each other, including the theological books, okay? You really won't understand. I'm writing all these books about Nazis and Nephilim and so on and so forth, but there's a reason for that, and at the core of it is theology. So I have a four-volume set of books called God, History, and Dialectic that are based on a course that I taught back when I was a professor. It's full of all sorts of little errors and everything, but the books are an attempt to explain how did we get here? why is our western culture a mess why did all of a sudden when we had one church now then we have two and then from the part that broke from the other part it spawned all these protestant sects that keep multiplying like rabbits and get narrower and narrower and narrower and narrower and have their own special brand of marketing you know so it's an attempt to answer that question and the only way to answer that question is to go back and dig into the history and show what the history is and where did all this theology come from was it invented by people sitting around evilly scheming to come up with difficult to believe stuff just to force on people well no if that's your view that's not what happened at all they were trying to answer questions as they arose and answer them in a way that was faithful to the tradition that they had received. So that's why you see this tremendous but slow development. But is this of interest to the modern American? No. And is modern America in trouble because we want to remain theologically ignorant and spiritually ignorant and listen to people like the guy that currently claims to have been Charlie Kirk's pastor, that, you know, is another one of these, hey, I'm hanging up my shingle, and I'm going to talk about the word today. Oh, really? How much Greek did you study? How much Latin? Yeah, totally. How much Aramaic? How much Hebrew? Did you open one book of a church father at any time in your life to find out what the historical precedent is? No. No. are these people therefore liable to teach you error yeah pretty much pretty much so get off your duffs folks you got to do the work and no one can do it for you pardon me where should we start like I said look I just gave you four volumes of a book that I wrote called God History and Dialectic and those four volumes are going to take you through the church fathers. So in other words, start with the church fathers. Start with the people who are writing before there is a New Testament that you can go to a Bible bookstore and buy between two convenient red letter, leather covers. Once you start there and start reading those people, you'll read, I mean, go read St. Ignatius of Antioch, okay? you'll immediately discover when you read his epistles that you're in a very different world from what modern American evangelo-zionism claims is Christianity you're in a totally different world conceptually liturgically sacramentally every other way that you can think of it it will be a shocker and that's the other thing I tell people all the time, when you start studying this stuff, be prepared to unlearn everything you think you know about Christianity. Let those early bishops and priests speak for themselves. And when they do, you're going to discover it's a whole different intellectual world, and by the way, it's a very demanding intellectual world. Very demanding. so when when you know i have a buddy of mine he found religion when he left from high school to college and comes back and we always have discussions on religion and jesus and all that stuff and i enjoy our conversations um one time i brought up that i thought it was uh god versus the fallen angels and he got very upset because he says god isn't battling anybody so I try to kind of rephrase that in that it's like the fallen angels war on humanity what are your thoughts on that because we get into the Nephilim and you know who created this beast system and all these temptations and all these little G gods and all this stuff that's out there what are your thoughts on the role of the fallen angels in our society today? I think it's pervasive. I think it's pervasive. You don't have to look far and wide to see that there's a lot of evil. And it's craziness. It's both evil and crazy. And that's a clue right there. And I'm going to wax all theological again. Let's go. If you go to traditional Christian theology, and please understand, when I say traditional, I mean church fathers, or if you're a Western Christian, at least as far back as people like Thomas Aquinas in the Middle Ages, or Boethius, or, you know, people of that sort, Hinkmar of Reims. In other words, I'm mentioning a lot of names most people haven't heard of, and that's my point. I'm not looking at Martin Luther or John Calvin or John Wesley or, you know, all of a sudden, bang, Protestantism arrives on the scene 1,500 years later, and all of a sudden, hey, now we've figured it out. I'm sorry. No, I'm not that way. If you look at the traditional theologians, they will tell you something about evil all the time and over and over again. Number one, evil has no substantial existence. In other words, that's not to say that the evil is not real, but it is not a thing. It is rather a twisted action of something natural. It is a personal twisting of something natural that does exist. In other words, the devil can never tempt you without twisting a natural good, without perverting it. That's number one. Number two, because of that, because of that personal opposition to what is inherently natural and good to you, what are you doing? You're splitting yourself off from yourself. You're creating quite literally a kind of spiritual schizophrenia. And in that schism of the mind, you're at perpetual war with yourself. And therefore, what are you? You're fundamentally, here it comes folks, irrational and insane. You're crazy. now all of us are infected because of the fall to some degree with that malady in the devil's case you're dealing with a cosmically sized ego that thinks it can overthrow God and go to war with God and because it's an angel it exists outside of the normal temporal flow of time and therefore its personal opposition to the good is forever locked in that habitual choice. You know, Thomas Aquinas says that at the moment the angels first use their will, at that moment, because they're outside of time, at that moment they have locked in their habit of will. so in other words evil is always number one a personal choice number two a twisting against the natural good number three therefore always introduces notice that twisting introduces what into the nature it introduces death and what is death it's the separation of the soul and body it's the separation of the spirit from the soul and that irrational separation is what makes you insane and evil. So it's all tied together. Now, as for is God warring against this? Well, he doesn't need to. He can make all things work for the good. You just have to give him time. But as far as what we're concerned, remember what St. Paul says. We war against principalities and powers. And in other words, what he's telling you is we're at war with something of cosmic scale and of cosmic intelligence and of cosmic power We are Can we defeat it on our own No No If you think I mean look at the world right now Do any of us really think we're going to fix this country by voting? No, I couldn't. So crazy. For the Republicans? Are you kidding? They haven't grown two testicles in the same sack in all of their congressional delegations since Eisenhower. Okay? And as far as the dummy crooks are concerned, you know, they like to murder babies and think it's okay. So, I mean, they have never got and never will get my vote. But do we honestly think that this system can be fixed politically? No, it's a spiritual problem. And the system, as I pointed out, was set up on an anti-tradition basis and that itself is a spiritual assumption. You know, you get a bunch of Freemasons together in Philadelphia. Oh, well, what are we going to do? Well, let's overthrow the old Constitution this week and come up with a completely new one. Okay, that sounds fun. And that's what they did. It's so crazy. Yeah, of course it's crazy. You know, I keep telling people I'm not an anti-federalist because I like it. I'm an anti-federalist because that's what they did. It was a coup d'etat. And look how well it's worked out. We've been at war for most of our existence ever since. And, by the way, can comment with that, we've gone into what? Debt. Thank you, Al Hamilton. The only time this country had a balanced budget was when Andy Jackson from Tennessee got rid of the Bank of the United States. Do you see any path to that happening anytime soon? No. No. Not with what they're trying to do with tokenized assets and claiming to get back to gold-backed currency. You know, what it is, guys, is, hey, we're going to create a sovereign wealth fund, and we're going to take some of that wealth and invest it in cryptocurrencies, which I like to call kleptocurrencies. And as we're doing that, we're going to be quietly buying up all the hard assets, you know, things like gold, silver, land. land, you know, maybe some patents here and there, you know. So, in other words, we're going to give you electronic blips. You give us your gold. I'm telling you, bro. And they've done it before. FDR. Of course they've done it before. They're all moving it out of the country now, too. Oh, yeah. You see that? We didn't talk about that cash, Daddy. how, like, J.P. Morgan now set up their central gold desk. Their gold desk. Yeah, in Taiwan. In Singapore. Oh, Singapore, yeah, Singapore. I wonder what that means. Well, number one, maybe they're a little upset about the election of an Islamist mayor of New York City. Maybe that had something to do with it. You know, it's crazy. But, you know, the other thing that you're watching right now is there are countries and states, countries in Europe, I think Switzerland just recently passed an amendment to its constitution that they cannot forbid the use of cash. In other words, say what you will about this little piece of tokenized gold. at least it's a tangible physical thing that is a medium of exchange that protects my anonymity and my transactional anonymity and there are a number of states I think Ohio is one of the more recent states in this country that's working legislation through to require the acceptance of cash in transaction. You go places here and they'll tell you, oh, no cash. But by law, they're supposed to take it. And there's actual places that if you bring it up, they'll just give you your food for free. You'd be like, hey, we don't take cash. Well, by law, you have to take cash. You should have to take. Yes, if it's legal tender, it's legal tender. You'll go to concerts and you'll go to concerts and be like, oh, sorry, it's a non-cash place. And you're just like, what the? Yeah, well, again, you know, we have to fight that. You either are good for cash business, and the way to fight it, folks, is use cash. You know, I'm done using my debit card for anything other than online purchases, and about the only time I do that is if I'm having to buy a research book at Amazon or something like that. For all transactions where I live, I use cash. That means groceries, gas, anything I might buy incidentally from, it's always cash. It's interesting you say that, Sam, because the Federal Reserve's advice on this, it says, is it legal for a business in the United States to refuse cash in the form of payment? And this says there's no federal statute mandating that a private business, a person, or an organization must accept currency or coins as payment for goods or services. is private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether to accept cash unless there's a state law that says otherwise. Yeah, well, there needs to be state and, as far as I'm concerned, federal law to require the acceptance of cash. Because if not, we are going to be forced by human laziness into the beast system. Yes, our convenience is going to be our enslavement. The convenience will be the enslavement. And trust me, folks, once they get those kleptocurrencies in as the only form of currency, you're dealing no longer with the currency. You're dealing, like Catherine Fitz says, you're dealing with a corporate coupon that they can adjust the value of depending on your conformity to their rules. Well, they can already do that. The whales, who are the whales? When they got the whales, they either take it in, take it out, and it goes up, it goes down. They can already manipulate the market. That's precisely my point. They can already do this if they get everybody corralled onto that reservation. Then, you know, if they don't like your position, your political position. Just look at Canada during Justin Trudeau's regime up there when they debanked the Canadian truckers for protesting his government's policies. They literally turned off their bank accounts. Well, that's the problem. If they can do that, they can do that and will do it in a completely digital system. And that's why it's a kleptocurrency. Because at that point, if they can regulate the value of your currency depending on your behavior, it's not a currency at all. It's a coupon, which they can choose to honor or not. so use cash use cash as much as you can I can see the day that you can pretty much bet your bottom dollar that the black market is going to be conducted in actual specie gold or silver coin I can see that too I think whenever you do have a socialist country you see a giant black market open up because in that socialist system, the only way to thrive is like literally becoming a singer or an athlete is the only way you can get your family out of poverty. It's such lockdown that you see black markets open up where people are like, I've got to do this because I can't make any money anywhere else. And you see gangs and mafias and cartels start to show up because they have to work outside the system because the system is so locked down. And the only people that thrive are the people who are our elite and then completely corrupt politicians. And then you end up with, like you did in the early days of the Bolshevik reign, where you have a dictatorship of food. It's the people who have the food. Those are the ones who will have all the power eventually, if we really get to that point. Because that was, I mean, famine. It was all, in the early days, they had to, the farmers were like, we're keeping our shit, dude. And then it turned to violence, and there was a massive famine. And what you see when that happens is this seizing of the means of production. Well, that was it, yeah. Is that you take the means of production, food and stuff like that, and you get rid of the farmers, and you just try to insert company loyalists who don't know what they're doing, and then famine comes. Actually, in Russia, it was even more complex, because what people forget, But again, Americans don't know history. In Russia, you had Tsar Alexander II after the Crimean War. The Russian elite that ran the country, including the autocracy, realized that if Russia were to remain a great power, they had to industrialize, and they could not industrialize under their feudal system. Because remember, Russia, up until the middle of the 19th century, was still a feudal society. It was a slave society. And in order to get to the point where they could keep up with the pace of industrialization, they had to abolish that feudal slave system. And they did it very cleverly. And, you know, this is why Russia is a kind of hidden player in the American Civil War. Yes. Okay. What the autocracy did was they created a system of low-interest loans. They funded the loans by issuing sovereign securities bonds. The loans were made to the serfs themselves to be emancipated to buy their land from their landlords and then an additional amount for the loss of their labor to the landlord. So they became property holders with their own farmland that they were responsible for. Their previous landowner was compensated for the loss of his lands and the loss of his labor. So it was a compensated manumission. It worked very well. Russia in that 40 years from the Crimean War up to the turn of the century and really up to the outbreak of World War I began to industrialize at an alarming pace it became the Ukraine became the bread basket of Europe as a result of the massive increase in food production so that Russia was not only feeding its own population, it was feeding Europe What happened when the Bolsheviks stepped into power? Well, they turned that whole clock back and collectivized the farms and said, no, we're taking all that land away from you. The state owns it now, but you get to farm it. Unbelievable. So, in other words, they recreated the surf system. Unbelievable. And what happened to Soviet agriculture? It began to tank. I grew up in the 70s, and I remember that every year the United States and the Soviet Union had to negotiate a new grain deal because Soviet production was falling short. Now look what's happened. Russia got rid of communism. It lost the Ukraine as part of its territory, and it still is producing enough food to feed its own citizens without the Ukraine. So, yeah, does the socialist feudal slave system work? No. It's a very efficient system for controlling populations and keeping your own power, and that's about it. And it's crazy to me because, you know, going back to Mondani, you know, you have these progressives who, like, are very much atheists, right? I mean, most of these progressives are atheists, yet now they're 100% voting for a particular Abrahamic religion. Well, you've got to understand something about the progressive, and it's not a surprise that they do this. Because to the progressive, religion is nothing but part of a political process. It can all be managed by process. It really is not that important. we don't need to pay attention to what a religion says about the infidel and cutting off their head if they don't pay the jizzy tax, you know, and on and on it goes. So in other words, it's not surprising to me at all that the progressives vote for these people because culture is not on their radar. To them, the entire thing is all about the political process. and process is never a substitute for substance. That's the problem. Look at what America's solution has always been since the Philadelphia Constitution. Why did we have a civil war? Why did we have it? Well, it was fundamentally not just because there was a slave section to the country and a free section to the country, But underneath those two things, there were vastly different cultures in the north and in the south. The northern culture was predominantly, as you say, progressive. It was secularized Calvinist Puritans, basically, running that culture. Think Ralph Waldo Emerson and people of his ilk. When you go to the south, what do you have? Well, you have a fundamentally Anglican sort of, you know, high Episcopalian culture of the southern plantation owner. And all of that northeastern Yankee revivalist, you know, evangelical tent meeting mentality is about as far from the average southern way of looking at things as you can get. So you have two cultures. So what's holding it together? Process. The government. You have a government trying to govern two different countries, all with the same process. And eventually, what happened? Well, it didn't work. Abraham Lincoln had to come along and say, well, it's the Union. And the Union is indissoluble. It's kind of like a Roman Catholic marriage, by the way, in that respect. You can't dissolve it. You can't. Once in, it's a suicide pact. You've got to stay in. No matter how bad it gets, you've got to stay in there. Well, the South said, no, that's not the way it works. No, sorry, bye. So in other words, the process solution to substantive issues seldom works. It always boils down to force. And that's where we are now. And by the way, I don't think even for it, I think the substantive cultural issues are becoming so extreme. I mean, we've got a whole segment of the population that can't tell the difference between a man and a woman. Yeah. You know, and if I were the ladies, yeah, I'd be a little upset, too. You know? So, yeah, we're getting to the position where the cultural extremities are so extreme that no amount of process is going to hold. And by the way, no amount of force is going to hold it together. Ain't going to happen. I got a new joke about how, like, basically, if you want to live in a proper society, you got to get rid of political correctness. You just got to. It's like, yeah, you have to be calling people out and they're bullshit, dude. I mean, and we're just so worried. And like you have registered clinical doctors talking about men having babies. I know. And they're everywhere. And yet the people who try to call it out as BS get shadow banned to the dark realm. It's such a just a dark, dark web of anti-God. It's like an anti-nature. And it's everywhere. My question to you, I'm not going to keep you much longer, but my question to you is I think in our modern society we mistake culture for our heritage. and so much culture is basically manufactured in these think tanks in a way to push an ideology that is anti-God, anti-nature, anti-good for you. It's like, you know, whether we look at feminism, the hip-hop culture, even to a point like Wahhabism in a weird way where it's like you're just, you're taking out these moderates and you're installing these extremists to kind of just plunder everywhere. Like, what are your thoughts on that? Well, if I'm understanding you correctly, pardon me, if I'm understanding you correctly, you're suggesting that in the absence of a culture that is a high culture that holds us together, that they are manufacturing a substitute, a kind of ersatz culture. Yes. A mass marketed version of culture. And if that's the case, yeah, I think you're on to something there. because the experiment of trying to hold discrete regional cultures together by mere governmental process is what I think is breaking down in this country. And, you know, it's an Enlightenment idea. And, you know, the Enlightenment has come and gone because it simply didn't work. And we're still trying to make that work. Okay. It's the Constitution. Well, yeah, when you're dealing with a bunch of Freemasonic Anglican deists that are putting together a Constitution, so long as the country remains that way, it'll probably work. You know, it's a republic if you can keep it, to cite one of those guys. All right. But as soon as that culture shifts away from that, what happens to that machinery of government that you've erected? So the problem, I think, is, yeah, America was never able, because of its inception as an anti-tradition country, built in. Okay, we're rejecting all that European stuff. We've got to have our own music, so we have to listen to one-dimensional, 24-7 rock music with a jungle beat and put loincloths on and a bone in our nose. I'm sorry. I'm an 18th century Johann Sebastian Bach kind of guy. I like complex music, not simple crap, that is drummed into our heads 24-7. I agree. They have to manufacture a culture. And by the way, in my book, Microcosm and Medium, I go into how the CIA was involved directly in a lot of those 1960s rock groups to promote and drive a particular musical culture into society. And it was for a reason. Part of it was to make people stupid. And in that sense, they've succeeded beyond their wildest imagination. I agree. We're some of the stupidest people on the planet. So, yeah, I think they're trying to create a culture. And lo and behold, what are they doing? Well, they're using AI to do it. In other words, they're creating a complete fiction that has no grounding in actual human reality. It's just like our markets. Our markets are now being run by algorithmic trading executed by computers. Well, if your markets are being run and traded by algorithms and computers, how much of that represents real human evaluation of price, cost, and risk? How much? None of it. None of it. So the market gets more and more disconnected from on the ground, boots on the ground, human economic reality. Oh, the market's running perfectly. You know, the economy is just perking right along, you know, says the grumpster and all of his people in Mar-a-Lago. and yet the people on the ground are having to pay more money for less groceries and more money for rotten health care. And, you know, just for long as the AI says the markets are going okay, then everything's okay. Well, you know, that's, again, you're divorcing yourself from reality. So, yeah, they're creating a false culture. I don't think it will survive because of its anti and inhuman nature on my website I have a fellow in Portugal an architect in Portugal that just wrote a book it's a good book he's talking about artificial intelligence and the cult of modernism in the arts and as an architect he looks at all these ugly buildings think of the Obama presidential library. Oh, it's so ugly, dude. Yeah, well, yeah, of course it is. But there's a reason it's ugly. They want it to be ugly. They want it to be ugly. Why? Look at what they did in the 1950s with the design of airports. Ever notice how they all look the same? All over the world. Doesn't matter where you are. You can be at Tokyo Hanedi or LaGuardia and they're all the same. Okay, why? Why? Well, it was deliberate. So, yeah, they're foisting a culture on people. And they're foisting, how to put it, they're foisting a culture where the symbols are not apposite to what they symbolize. In other words, the symbols are almost contradictory to what they're intended to symbolize. so in other words you're dealing again with that mentality that splits the brain and uses something twisted to symbolize something normal and natural and you know a culture founded on those principles breaks down the best example of this I can give for people if you really wanted to sink your teeth into this whole culture issue the German novelist Thomas Mann wrote a novel called Dr. Faustus and it's a retelling of the Faust myth of the devil and the guy that makes the bargain with the devil the guy in the novel that makes the bargain with the devil is a composer and Thomas Mann is in the novel he is fictionalizing the life of his friend, the composer Arnold Schoenberg. Now, if you haven't listened to Arnold Schoenberg's music, go do so. Try to, anyway. And then go listen to Clara the Cat. You know, listen to Arnold Schoenberg's piano music and then go listen to Clara the Cat. And I'll tell you, Clara the Cat's a lot better and a lot easier on the ears. But in the novel, he goes into why Schoenberg started writing all of this ugly, unlistenable music. And it's because the devil makes a deal with him. And there's a whole chapter where you have this confrontation between the devil and this composer. It's a wonderful chapter. If you don't read anything else in that book, read that chapter. And the devil comes to this composer in one of his fits of madness. and the devil says, I can offer you, and listen to the anti-tradition part of this philosophy here, because this is what's driving the modern West. Yeah. I can offer you one-of-a-kind, absolutely unique, irrepeatable originality. And he does. Because everyone who follows him is mimicking him. Now contrast that offer. You know, he achieves his fame. And by the way, Arnold Schoenberg becomes a famous composer by writing uniquely, originally ugly music. Okay? And I don't even glorify it with the term music. It's anti-music. If you turn the clock back to the 18th century and look at a Mozart or a Bach or a Haydn or a Beethoven or a Handel, you know, those composers in that wonderful 18th century, they are taught music not only to imitate the masters, but they are given a theme of a previous musical master to develop in a different way than that original master did. So in other words, your whole musical education was not against tradition. It was to develop that tradition, to develop that craft. They weren't just a bunch of guys banging out tunes in their garage on their guitar. They were trying to understand the craft as well as human intelligence could, the craft of making music. And the only way to do that was to become part of that tradition and to develop it in a different way that was not against that tradition. So contrast the devil's offer in Thomas Mann's book. I can offer you one-of-a-kind, absolute, unique, irrepeatable originality. versus a Beethoven or a Mozart, whose music we still listen to. Why? Because it's well built, it's well constructed, and it's beautiful. You're so right, dude. So, there's the American dilemma. We can either get back to tradition and understand that this anti-tradition ride that we've been on for the last 250 years isn't working out too well, And we might want to rethink a few things, or we can continue to our self-destruction, which we're well on the way to. I mean, the Soviet Union collapsed. So what did Russia do? Is Russia trying to reinvent the Soviet Union? No. No. In fact, if there's a government on the face of the planet that's doing more to return to its traditional religious past, it's Russia. Of all the countries on the planet. If you look at Moscow today, there is a church called Christ the Savior Cathedral in Moscow. That church was rebuilt in the last 20 years completely according to the original design that Stalin had dynamited to the ground. Oh, my God. to make room for some temple to Soviet man or some, you know, monstrosity that never was built. So they rebuilt that church. In Berlin, in Berlin, the Germans rebuilt the old Statschloss, the old imperial palace of the Kaiser in Berlin. It's there. They rebuilt it. And by the way, they crowdfunded it. They tore down that ugly temple to modern man that the Soviets built in East Germany on that site and rebuilt the Kaiser's Imperial Palace in Berlin in the old governmental court. You can go online and look at it. So my point is, is people are fed up and they're moving back. My hope is that we're moving back fast enough because we can't keep going down this route that we're on. I agree. We're watching Great Britain turn against its own tradition and inviting in people from third world crap holes to euphemize Trump's statement about them and turning the United Kingdom into this third world Muslim crap hole. And the same thing in France. Well, it's not working out too well. and that it's all been done by people who have no reverence for cultural tradition it's all process it's all mr global yeah we can manage this you know we're we're the expert manager manipulators we know how to do this more i i agree man i mean everything you're saying right now you can apply to almost every part of our culture comedy they you know when all comedy was in it was not funny and that was done on purpose to be like look at how it's like hollywood got away from hilarious and went to clever right bingo bingo oh listen i'm so glad you mentioned comedy because you know i i love to go online and watch old johnny carson tonight show appearances with people that that were genuinely funny you know jonathan winters or betty white or you know joan rivers or people that knew how to tell a joke and didn't have to use f-bombs all the time to make their point or scatological references to make their point and who were genuinely funny and now and the reason they were genuinely funny was they weren't constantly preaching at people so again you know it's this American evangelical mentality that everything has to be a sermon and a message well you know there a place for sermons and messages but Johnny Carson isn one of them I agree I agree You look at that music too Everything is crap Exactly That's what's being pushed on you. Because you go back to the architecture. It's like when you look at this bad architecture, your anxiety goes up. Your depression goes up. It's not pleasing on the eyes. I remember watching Frank Ocean, who was the gay rapper, push for it. He did something at the Grammys, and the room was quiet because it was so bad. Nobody enjoyed one. That's done on purpose. That's why the music is crap. That's why drill rap is pushed forward. That's why all these hooker, rapper chicks are pushed forward. It's meant to be a war on your eye and your soul, and it's meant to be bad. You know, there was a time when, like, NBC, their comedy was so bad, and everyone was like, oh, it was a great time, The Office, Parks and Rec, and all this stuff. You're like, if it was so – this is how bad it got for NBC. NBC out of four networks was ranked fifth because Telemundo had jumped it because their numbers had gone so low because everybody didn't want to watch it. Well, look, you know, I get that because, you know, I have my Internet comes with with cable TV where I live. And I haven't hooked up my cable television in the 15 plus years I've lived here. I don't I simply don't watch TV. I refuse to watch trash and to get preached to. If I want to get preached to, I listen to myself on a rant. And even then, I don't like it. I don't like ranting. You guys are lucky that you got me in the mood to rant today because I really don't like preaching. But it's become so all-pervasive that you just can't listen to it, and I don't. I'm a curmudgeon, guys. I grew up when the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan, okay? And at that time, I hated them. And the reason I hated them was because everybody else liked them. I was that much of a curmudgeon. It took me a long time to actually listen to them and say, hey, that's not bad. but you know even then I still make the distinction between the high culture in the arts and the popular culture in the arts yeah the Beatles are good music are they Johan Sebastian Bach no they're not yeah they're not sorry and occasionally a Beatle will get through now the Beatles you will if you're lucky and the reason they do that is because if you're lucky enough to find a radio station and it'll play some music. It's really bad. And the reason they got to let that through, like you'll see it on Netflix, they'll just have absolute dog shit. And then one amazing series will come through. And you're like, wow, that's amazing. It's because that builds credibility. They're like, come back to us. Come back to us. Oh, I like that. I'll catch you. And then it's just crap after crap after crap. And then we'll drop another one on you to get you to go, God, I can't cancel my thing. I won't get blah, blah, blah if I cancel my subscription. and it's just a marathon of dog crap with one little shining diamond that keeps you hooked there so you don't cancel and they can still. It's not that they're not making money. I don't fall for the shining diamond crap. You know, I listen to all my music on CD. So, you know, I refuse to be the victim of a playlist at the local radio station anymore. If I want to listen to Jeff Rotol, I will listen to Jeff Rotol. I'll pop in the CD and turn it on and I'll listen to it. So, you know, I just refuse to be their victim anymore. And Spotify's gotten so bad that I used to find all these amazing new artists. They don't introduce me to any more new artists ever. Ever. If it ever gets, yeah. I know they don't. And if it is, it's going to be AI or some bad bunny sounding type shit. Yeah, it's just really bad. And, like, Johnny brought it up, and we'll end it here, but the Detroit Lions halftime show with Jack White and Eminem is going to be a thousand times better than the Super Bowl halftime show, which they're just trying to piss you off with. Who do we get? I don't even know who those people are. Yeah, I mean, you're blessed. I mean, I don't care. Who do we get at the Vegas Browns game? It was a little too old for me. The lead singer of the Don Hanley, but it wasn't him. It was a cover band. Okay, guys, if you're going to talk sports. If you're going to talk sports. We need to be talking Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Rod Lager, John McEnroe, Michael Jordan, Wayne Gretzky. Back when people cared, they don't anymore. Dr. Joseph, this has been an absolutely all-time banger. Thank you for coming. I know we were going to get into more not-y stuff, but this is exactly what people want to hear. They want to screamy rat and turn purple-faced. Yeah, dude. We love purple-faced feral, dude. We'll take purple-faced feral any day of the week. One more time, tell them where they can find you. My website is GizaDeathStar, that's G-I-Z-A and then DeathStar. That's all one word, lowercase. That's my website. That's where they can find me. It's always an honor and a privilege to talk to you. You have an open door. Anytime you got anything going on you want to promote, just tell us. You can come on. And we appreciate you. Let's break down the episode. All right, guys. What did you guys think of Dr. Joseph P. Farrell? What did you think, XG? Mount Crushmore, he rancid. That was an all-time banger. Yeah. I loved it. I could talk to him for hours if I thought he wouldn't get irritated with me. I would sit there and talk to him forever. Johnny, your thoughts? Didn't we have one where you irritated him a little bit? Wasn't that one of the earlier ones? I seem to remember you getting it. I don't know if we irritated him. I have irritated some people. Like that guy from that band who's like, all the Nazis are right, all the witches are right wing. I'm like, not according to my experiences in any way. Any way. The guy from Blondie. The worshipping of the darkness is done by conservatives. Totally got you, dude. Yeah. To live in your little bubble of stupid. Yeah, it's funny. I love it, dude. You know, he said something similar to that, which is that he thinks that the evangelical tradition is connected or evangelical culture is connected to these liberals going on TV and, you know, expressing their beliefs and preaching. Interesting. And I don't know if I buy that exactly. Well, you know, yeah, everyone's allowed to think what they want. Right. No, but what do you think? I mean, let's unpack it a bit. What do you think about it? I think there could be something that they are promoting what he sees as false doctrine, which he could say somewhat, I don't want to put words into his mouth, but somewhat connected to the Luciferian, Malachian side of the argument. Yeah. I see that with the left, for sure, and the celebrities, but I just don't know if I see that in the evangelical tradition. I think people are just doing their best on the ground level. Do you know what I mean? It is interesting that, you know, and I'm a huge fan, but it's interesting that you think Israel has a right to exist, but it is a turd in a turd bowl, and it's not based on. I had that written down as a question here. Let's see. At what point do you forfeit your right to sovereignty as a country? Well, you know, I'm going to say it sounds like I piss people off. I question whether the United States has forfeited its right for sovereignty based on what we've done to the rest of the world. And he's totally right. You're not going to vote your way out of this. I'm not calling for anything. I'm just sitting in the back and watching. But I 100% go what we've done to the rest of the world is absolutely disgusting. And whether we have the right to exist based on what we've done to the rest of the world. But what he said was super interesting, that the foundation of the birth of this country was based on anti-tradition. Yes. Well, and it's also, you know, I've seen you grapple with this, too, and I'm curious what you think now, if it's evolved. Because you've talked in the past about being against these various modern secessionist movements because you don't want to see the Balkanization of this country. But at what point, if this country is a force for evil in the world, which you could argue, certainly, is the balkanization, but actually a good thing, net, you know, overall. Well, I mean, the dissolving, listen, I don't want the country to dissolve. I don't. I love where I live. I love the country. The mechanism that is the U.S. government right now is completely broken. It's not serving anybody but the powerful elite. It's broken except for them. Right. Corporate socialism and all that shit. Which you could argue doesn't have to work. But bulk of the station is not good. So I don't know what the answer is. Well, it's not good if you're at the top and trying to steer this giant ship the way you want it to go. But if you're maybe in a country where they're dropping bombs on you right now, then maybe it is a good thing. No, I understand what you're saying. I'm saying from us, the citizens' point of view. Well, it could not. I mean, maybe it could be good, though. Like, what if, okay, we decide we go to Texas, Texas is these, and we just get to live that Texas life. You know what I mean? Well, right. But, you know, eventually Texas will invade Arizona and Nevada at some point. Right? I mean, it will just curb stomp Louisiana because it's so small. Not that Louisiana isn't great, but you're just not big enough to deal with the fucking hordes of Texans. It's funny. Louisiana was, I mean, it was the center for industry in that part of the South during the Civil War. I mean, that was the only place that could meant money toward the end of the war, you know, and the North kind of took it over. Yeah. That was the big city, though, in the South. It was New Orleans. That was it. I mean, what's happening in this country is disgusting, and I don't – you're just never going to get anybody to be able to focus on it. If they're fighting over Republicans and Democrats, straights and gays, blacks and whites, religions and all that stuff. What is the answer, though? Because I agree totally. You can't vote your way out of it. Voting doesn't – I mean, I don't want to say anything out of here. I don't know. I mean, what is the answer? But it's like, again, if you have flat homeless people with iPhones, how are you going to get anybody upset enough to do anything? He was talking about would you ever go to organized religion? Because he was saying that we kind of have to go to that, that just go into religion. Well, again, I understand what he is saying, but I think when people think about organized religion, they think of, like, what the Vatican has become, right? But is he not talking about Roman Catholicism there, like capital C Church? Yeah, I mean, he is. I guess I don't know in my head. I differentiate, you know, these churches and this kind of, I don't know, perceived as like false doctrine and stuff like this, like where the church has inserted itself between you and God, when I think the connection should be you to God. Well, that was funny that you mentioned that because he's talking about, I mean, a number of the saints you brought up, that was their thing, was that you needed a priest and elders and stuff in the church. Yeah, it's interesting to me. I don't know. I just go off my field. I agree with you. It's been totally put me in positions to be right, and it just tells me that the church has become so corrupt, or that organized religions come so corrupt that it's like it's disconnecting you from Jesus and you from God. That's what I'm talking about. Johnny, have you seen any change in a church you've been to where it went from like back in the day more organized to like kind of like what they're talking about? Not the one I went to. No, it's pretty much. I mean, it hasn't changed in 40 years. Do you see it more in that community? I mean, yeah, there's just all these, like he said, strip mall churches. And in a way, to me, should you discount a place because it's in a humble building? You know what I mean? Like, I don't think. No, but it's like my friend Tony, like, he doesn't believe in going to a structured church. He believes, like, your church should be a home with people, you know, celebrating your religion. And that's, I mean, that's exactly opposite of what I think the doctor would tell us. No, you're totally right about that. I mean, and that's the whole thing about, like, are we ever really meant to know what the real story is? And is there actual one real story? Well, okay, now you're getting into, like, relativistic territory there. But, I mean, truth, I think, exists. Yeah. But, you know, there's mysteries wrapped around it, but sure. It's interesting. I just don't think that I'm smart enough and deep into enough to give any answers to anything. But I find it like following the teachings of Jesus. Aligning your free will with God is the best plan to do. How you do that is up to you, you know. but like basic things like love thy neighbor don't steal don't lie don't try to bang your friend's wife all that stuff is like when i look at because i i've never banged any of my friends girls i've never done that nice job thank you i you know that's the closest i'll get to walking on water but um you know it's like those are things that go hey dude you don't do this less chaos comes into your life. Don't lie, don't murder, don't steal. Like, those are basic rules. They're like, hey, dude, you do any of this, chaos ensues. You know, that's what I'm saying about lining your free will with God and getting away from instant gratification. And I'm not perfect. My sex addiction is just chaos. It's very hard. But people always laugh at me when I say sex addiction is ten times harder to break than drug and alcohol addiction. Because wherever you go, you're horny. Yeah. Right? I cannot drink. I cannot do drugs. I can go to a place where those aren't. I mean, there's a joke where, oh, if you go to AA for sex or someone there willing to do it with you, where it's like you can't even stop it. I was talking to someone the other day about sex addiction, and he's like, yeah, there was always chicks there looking for validation. I'm like, I could not imagine going to a sex addiction meeting and there's a hot chick you want to bang. That's like someone drinking Jack Daniels at the fucking. Are they co-ed meetings? There are co-ed meetings. Are they all co-ed or you can get some of them? I've never been to a meeting that says women can't show up. It tends to be mostly men. Okay, so are you actually saying that it's uncommon to see attractive women there? Is that what you're saying? At a sex addiction meeting, I would say yeah. I would say there is probably co-ed, but I would assume there's like a bunch of females that get together. But what happens is with females, they tend to go in there because they're so – they want love so badly that they put themselves in bad positions that love becomes their addiction. Trying to get love whenever they can. Is that sex and love addicts? Is that the same one? That's the problem. They clump them together, and I think they're two different problems. Oh, shit. Yeah, because the love thing is more of a woman's thing, right? The love is more of a woman's thing about just falling for bad boys and just always picking the wrong guy and just, you know, getting too much into the relationship and then it ends and then they're just like they're lost. Like that stuff. And when guys are like, I can't stop jerking off to porn and I can't stop cheating on my wife and all that stuff, it's like I think it's two totally different things. But that's just me. Guys, if you go to SamTripleE.com, you can get my dates. We're going to be, again, I'm going to be at the Comedy Store for Comedy Chaos. That will be up on the website by today. Minneapolis, New Year's Eve at Morris Plains at the Dojo Comedy. And then what I'm so excited about, it's like this thing is going to be insane and amazing. The people working on it are the best of the best. The World War debate, it's going to be packed out. It's going to be like everybody that we've approached to do it is like, I fucking love this idea. I think it's fucking great. It's one of those, dude. Yeah. For sure. And it's just got to be executed right. And even if, let's say, like we want to get Candace Owens, right? I think what's going on in her life, she doesn't want to be in open spaces, which I totally understand. You know, so we can't get her. But we got other ones that are just, you know, it's going to be great. And these guys are going to make money. You know, that's the whole thing. It's like we're going to make, you know, debaters like pro athletes. That's the goal. If you go to SamTriplee.com, you get all my videos, all my premium content. Johnny, talk about comedy chaos. I mean, talk about Cash Daddies real quick. Yeah, how he continues to kill it. He's on there all the time. I mean, he lives on the Patreon. So if you ever wanted access to somebody who knows a lot about what he's supposed to do. That's a great one. That's a great one. Yeah, he just posted something. Why do I not listen to CNBC? It should just be why I don't listen to CNBC. I mean, again, idiot, as you say. But, yeah, if you wanted access to an expert. Yeah, but look at this. I mean, I've got to talk to him today. This is good, though. Well, that's a good one. Yeah, but the bottom one? Yeah. Well, he's saying he's selling something, so that doesn't really help anybody. Yeah, okay. I'm with you on that. But, hey, dude, S&P, if you know what that means, this Patreon has beaten the S&P for, what, four years, five years straight? Yes. Well, yes. I don't think we've been doing it that long. I don't know how long we've been doing it. A couple of years here. A couple of years now. It's beating it every year. So join it. Join us. Join us. Go Sam back to SamTriplee.com. go down, go down, Chaos Winds is coming. I'm very excited about it. It's one of my favorite projects that I've ever done. If you have kids, you have nieces, you have nephews, this is a great thing for them to learn. It's the story of two sisters who basically learn how to learn about the world of conspiracies based on their neighborhood. Every house is a different conspiracy. Once that conspiracy is solved, they move out, a new conspiracy moves in. I love that. That's great. Yeah, we're very excited about it. And if you go down. And then, guys, listen, I'm telling you guys that these affiliates. Oh, yeah, T-shirts, man. You've got to get into that, too. Slap Season, the original one. And, guys, again, we talked about Unbroken Sim. We're taking care of the people who have to pay $100 for parking at the Vegas show. We feel really bad about that. I'm designing a shirt right now for you. We're going to take care of you. You just have to email me. Email me. You have to show me a picture of your ticket. You have to tell me the exact lineup of I was in the show. The people that were there were myself, Johnny, Tino, Eddie, and XG. Tell us the lineup, the exact order of the lineup. and if I feel like you were there and you're being honest and I know I believe you and I love you all. Dude, that Siam season hoodie is fire. Yeah. Just email me at Sam. That's a fire. I got to get that hoodie. That is a fire hoodie. That's a fire hoodie. I like it. Wow. Just email me with your picture, the lineup, and I'm making a T-shirt right now that I'm going to send to everybody for having to spend $100 on parking. Not our choice. More than 40 people didn't show up to the show because of the parking. Chemical-free body, I love that. You know what people, I take it every day that that is my supplements. And then everybody loves Pat Meltich, man, and his Mineral King. Check it out, man. A lot of people are buying it. Get rid of parasites. Take care of your soil. More great supplements there. One of the best ever do it, Pat Meltich. Like, it's very insane to call him my good friend. I can't believe I'm friends with him because he's such a fucking legend, and I love him with all my heart. We're very close. Very good about that. EMF rocks that dirty electricity we'll talk about in the next episode. And then tell us about your feelings on Brain Supreme. Oh, I love it. Go get yourself. One week on, one week off. Go get him. Wax on, wax off. Anything else, guys? Xavier. Hit that like button. Go check out my podcast, XG Marks. I had a little vlog for the Vegas and the Raiders-Brown game with Eddie Bravo, so go check it out, please. Johnny? Check out Broken Sim. We just had one, Sam. I won't even tell you what he did. I boofed a tick-tock. There it is. I boofed a knick-knack. He put nicotine up his poop chutes. Yeah, and it's not a joke. It's not a joke. I sacrifice my manhood for the show. Did you smell it, Johnny? It was horrific. Why would he smell it? Why would I pull it out and put it in his nose? He mailed it to me. Could you imagine Johnny doing that? How much money would it take for Johnny to sniff a knick-knack up my mind? A hundred grand. A hundred grand. I might do that. You can buy a hundred grand. If I became a bazillionaire, I would show one so far up my ass, have a hot chick dig it out, and then make Johnny sniff it for five minutes. You'd be like Mr. Beast, just making people do all these horrible things for money. I don't even think you'd make it Patreon exclusive. I think you'd just give that to the world. For real. Everywhere. And that would boost the shit out of it. I pay for so many ads for everybody to see it. I spent another million dollars just boosting it. You waste more on promotion than you waste on getting it. So funny. All right, guys. Enjoy the highlights. Here's a clip from the latest Broken Sim. Okay. Now, this story is something we followed for a while. Remember the Supreme Court like a year or two ago came to L.A. County and said, you guys have to start issuing concealed carry permits. You haven't been, and it's illegal. Then we find out now, now that the numbers are starting to come in, that these guys haven't been doing a damn thing. These are the numbers we have right here. Okay, hold on. Just a second. Let me see. Da-da-da-da-da. Where is the number? Okay. Here it is. According to the Justice Department's lawsuit, L.A. County Sheriff's Department received 3,982 new applications, and only two permits were issued. Are you listening? Yeah, I am. 4,000 people applied after the government, the Supreme Court, said you have to start issuing these, and they've only done two. Yeah, it's ridiculous. And they're trying to defend it, like, oh, no, we're actually – we are doing it. It says applicants have to wait an average of 281 days over nine months just for the sheriff to begin processing their applications. I know somebody who says that they were doing this right, and they trick you, bro. They – okay, so you do all this stuff. You send away your information, and then after nine months, you'll get an email asking for information. and if you reply to that email, it starts the whole process over again and you have to wait another nine months. They trick you with this email they send requesting the information you've already sent and if you make the mistake of responding to that email, it boots you back to the back of the line again. So they just have people who they're taking application fees from. It's like $100 or something like that to apply out of $4,000 too. It's absolutely ridiculous. And they've been commanded by the federal government to issue these things. And they just are like, no, not going to do it. Not going to do it. Not going to do it. Thousand points of light. Not going to do it. Not going to do it. Read my lips. No new taxes. No new taxes. I am not a wimp. I am not a wimp. He's not a wimp, by the way. I am not. I am not. George H.W. Bush apparently is one of the only presidents who was told about, I think because he was in the CIA, about the secret meetings that the aliens had with the government. The reports were that he was one of the ones who was told about that. That's what the people are saying. Kevin Spacey says he's homeless. We have this story here. Kevin Spacey says, I literally have no home. He's living out of his suitcase and working as a nightclub singer in Cyprus, and he's claiming that if just one of these big directors like Spielberg would work with him, his career would be back on the tracks. Yeah, that kind of happens when three accusers die. Yeah. You know who's homeless to three accusers? Well, they have a home in heaven, I guess. Yeah, six feet deep. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Karen Bass finally acknowledged Spencer Pratt's existence. Did you see this, Sam? Oh, really? Yeah, she attacks him live on the news here. Somebody has to call to bring it up in front of her. Finally, someone brings it up in front of her. Not just Spencer Pratt. The timing of this, saying that this was kind of misleading because that permit was already issued before the fire. No, yeah, well, that's actually not accurate, but Spencer Pratt is deliberately not accurate. But I was not just referring to him. There are several people who deliberately put out misinformation. Yeah, I mean, these progressives think misinformation means something. Not every day that the mayor of Los Angeles goes on national television and calls you a liar. If I'm spreading deliberate misinformation, then why did Karen Bass delete her post about 915 Kagawa Street? We all know she deleted her post because she got busted. Mayor Bass claimed that 915 in the Palisades was the first home rebuilt after the Palisades fire. Then she got called out. Even in this interview, Karen Bass admits the property was not occupied by a family before the fire. We all know this was a developer project, not a family home, and the permitting process began before the fire occurred. It doesn't matter that they had to renew their existing permits in April. Everyone knows that this was a spec home planned well in advance of the fire with no post-fire regulatory hurdles like actual fire victims who lost their homes or facing. You tried to use this pre-pensational project to claim a political win, and it backfired on you. You did this interview to backtrack and deflect, but the people who actually lost their homes in the Palisades Fire know exactly what happened and what continues to happen under your failed leadership, Karen Bass. And you're right. It's not just Spencer Pratt. It's thousands of Palisades residents that got screwed over by your failures. And we aren't going to stay quiet. And guess what? Don't talk to us about trauma. You and Newsom and Janice Quinonez at the LADWU are why we live now, 10 months later, with trauma every day. So, yeah, he's totally lying. Hey, New York City, you want to see what happens when you elect a minority socialist? Go look at what Karen Bass has done to Los Angeles. She's burnt it to the ground. This is what they do. Okay? They're Bolsheviks, and they come in and they destroy everything around them. That's what they do. That's what their job is. I guarantee you this is what's happening in Vegas. They want to reset Vegas. They want everyone rand out so that they can do poor Raiders and athletics. They come in when the city is being just literally controlled demolitioned. All right? This is what they do. She's an agent provocateur. She's a Bolshevik. She used to go to Cuba to listen to Castro give speeches. She is one of the worst of the worst. She probably didn't even win that election, okay? Then you have Rick Caruso pushing Prop 50. He's no better than anybody else. But this town will never change because it's a bunch of trust fund kids who have sympathetic empathy. that the theory of hate is worse than real world consequences. Yeah, sure. Garbage, people. Garbage. Yeah. She's garbage. And it's never going to stop because the people in L.A. are so afraid of getting a red light when they try to work in Hollywood that they'll never say anything about it. The people who actually come out and say something are the ones who already made their money so they don't give a shit. it's stupid dude trust fund kids are the most dangerous animal on planet earth they have so much money that they vote with their heart it's like I was saying about in New York City you see a woman get mugged you gotta ask her who she voted for first before you help her who'd you help who'd you vote for oh okay Mondani enjoy it enjoy it I thought you might enjoy this. This was Michael Porter Jr. talking about the WNBA. He's got a lot of guff because of this comment. I mean, as respectfully as possible. But ninth grade Lonzo Ball in the WNBA, it's going crazy. In ninth grade, I'm over six feet, and I'm dunking. I'm coming through the fight. No girl in the WNBA is doing that. I'm going back door, throw it up. I'm looking like Jordan out there. I'm going to go probably eighth grade. Because, look, I have real experience doing this because I played. My sisters went to University of Missouri, and I was still a young dude. And they had me playing, like, on the scout team. And they had a few WNBA players on the team, like Sophie Cunningham and a couple others. And I think I was, like, in the seventh or eighth grade going dumb.
