Starting point is 00:00:00 I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys saying we are the bad guys knowledge fight I love you everybody welcome back to knowledge fight I'm Dan we're couple dudes like sit around drink novelty beverages and talk a little bit about Alex Jones indeed we are Dan Jordan Dan what have you ever had something important stolen from you maybe not necessarily important but I thought my car got stolen once but it just got lost like I I'd left it in front of somebody else's house okay it was much younger man and I left my car in front of somebody's house yeah
Starting point is 00:01:31 completely forgot that it was there and I woke up the next morning and thought it had been stolen wandered around like oh here it is okay I don't know I've not really I don't think really had too much theft problems in my life well that's getting it something of you know not at all recently had no I was just curious okay the only thing I think the only thing I've ever had stolen me from me for real was a Super Mario World cartridge that was stolen from me when I was in junior high sure other stuff has been stolen but I haven't really cared about it I'm certain that I've had things like that happen over the course of my
Starting point is 00:02:05 life but like I've let that shit go yeah right don't even I don't know why I remember that one in specific mm-hmm it's just a formative theft you will experience for me no I don't know not not a big not a big the stealing things in my life that's I think we should all be grateful it's one of those things man sometimes your questions lead to something fantastic and sometimes they are dead ends it's not my that is the nature of this show indeed it is so Jordan this is a podcast where I know a lot about Alex Jones and not much about the experience of being the victim of theft and I only know what you tell me
Starting point is 00:02:40 about both that's correct so Jordan today we got an interesting episode to go over we're back in the present day it's been a while since we had to you know accommodate the move and what have you but we are back and we'll be going over Jane July 26th through 29th it is Friday through Monday okay of you know last week into this week and I would say that there's some interesting stuff in here and also a load of bullshit yeah that sounds right so before we get into that I'd like to take a moment to say thank you just people have signed up and are supporting the show we really appreciate it so first Kevin thank you so much

Starting point is 00:04:59 but Alex does call in and he gives a little bit of content for us to get into it's really boring it's stupid but he does say one thing that I think is very interesting and it's about his father's influence on him as a younger man and people are taught this in college who are part of the establishment and I've said this many times I'm not even trying to get by that on the air though he's not an extrovert these days like he used to be he's more of an introvert but my dad told me all of this when I was a little kid he gave me books about the French Revolution he explained how the communists operate and it's just all mainline history so these ideas that there is this grander conspiracy behind all of these world events taking out the Tsar in Russia the global communism the French Revolution all of this is being done by the same people is the belief system espoused by the person we talked about on our last episode David J Smith the Christian identity preacher who Alex learned a lot from as well as his dad Alex is now saying that this exact same sort of worldview was taught to him by his dad when he was younger it's his mainstream history that's troubling to me dad can we have a catch no let me teach you about communism listen to this weirdo preacher from Waxahatch it does lead me to believe that there may be a little bit more to that idea that maybe his dad was funneling some of these Christian identity beliefs to him at a young age
Starting point is 00:06:48 and maybe that's maybe that's a bigger part of the story than we realized they're running in crazy circles from the very beginning it's possible you're seeing little indications here and there that that that might there might be some fertile soil there so that's all for the 26th because I'm sure you're so excited alright so we jumped to Sunday and I wasn't expecting too much on Sunday because Alex generally phones a lot of those in but I turned it in and Alex is on some real crazy bullshit like he is insanely revved up ready to go and he has got a narrative that he believes is going to be like game changing alright and it's real stupid here we go and you know I get Mr. President you're 73 and everything and you don't know how the internet really works but I'll explain something
Starting point is 00:07:40 in the last three days more accounts have been lost on Facebook and Twitter of your bona fide supporters then you have on both of your Twitter's your Instagram and everything else 200 million followers on major accounts two of the accounts had 70 million together 74 million together one had 40 something million 130 million the sites were getting hundreds of millions of views of your damn videos Jesus you don't think they put you unfiltered on CNN MSNBC ABC News where they only have a million viewers maybe these little meme channels were bigger than Fox News but all the little fancy outfits and all the suits and all the consultants in that incestuous douchebag that is the Republican establishment excuse my French here douchebag he lost track of that sentence yeah he was he was really swinging for something and he like his arm went out of socket
Starting point is 00:08:45 yeah he was like ah fucking douchebag he was about to say they couldn't put Humpty Dumpty back together again I'm sure that was banana he was in the neighborhood of that metaphor yeah so this is this is a part of Alex really talking directly to Trump through a lot of this yeah this is weird yeah so I don't know if you can glean what's going on here well I believe Alex is still pissed off that he's not on Facebook that is ultimately what we're going to get back to yes certainly that's what's motivating a lot of us so now he's trying to backdoor that like if Trump gets if Trump focuses on the millions of followers that he lost on those meme accounts then naturally that's going to trickle down to Alex being put back on Facebook I mean I think that I think you're probably right in terms of like motivation yes but so you didn't hear about this story of millions of people being kicked off Instagram
Starting point is 00:09:42 absolutely not I don't give a fuck about Instagram well it's also not true okay that sounds right Alex is really exaggerating this story here he's trying to make it sound like 200 million people have been kicked off Instagram presumably because they support Donald Trump naturally these are your supporters 200 million people support Donald Trump worldwide you have to pay close attention to the words he's using he says that 200 million followers which is different than 200 million people right were kicked off it's you know that could just be one account that has 200 million people following it being shut down now 200 million followers have been lost yeah what Alex is doing is trying to over inflate the scope of this purge from Instagram where some meme accounts got kicked off if you want to call it a purge I'm not entirely sure to give you some perspective if 200 million accounts were kicked off Instagram that would represent twice the number of people who use Instagram in the United States being kicked off
Starting point is 00:10:37 that would be them removing approximately one-fifth of their entire subscriber base which would completely cripple their business it's the sort of claim that's just absurd on its face and it's what Alex is trying to imply and he should be embarrassed that he's trying to present the story this way yeah of course in reality the number of followers of the affected accounts is probably lower than 200 million and whatever number anyone can come up with doesn't take into account that there's probably heavy overlap in the followers of these meme accounts of course so the number is exaggerated over inflated anyway so on Thursday and Friday of last week approximately 30 meme accounts on Instagram were banned with a spokesman for the company saying that they were quote disabled following multiple violations of our policies including attempted abuse of our internal processes at the point I'm preparing this episode and recording it's not 100% clear exactly what the policy violations are but given how shady large social media accounts tend to be I'm willing to suspend judgment for the time being and wait and see what information comes out later before I take a really firm position on this
Starting point is 00:11:38 we've seen countless examples of people gaming social media systems for profit from the people who set up syndicates to make tweets go viral for a fee to the Krasnstein brothers so it doesn't seem too unbelievable to assume that these accounts that got banned last week may have been up to some shit that Instagram wanted to shut down for non-political reasons at all yeah they're just abusing the system like a bunch of assholes for some context in situations like this it's best to find examples of times that things like this have happened before and why they've happened before and in this case it's super easy in late French Revolution exactly yes there we go in late December 2018 Instagram had another purge of accounts that violated their policies in that instance a spokesman for Instagram told the Daily Dot quote we've seen behavior on Instagram whereby some usernames for example usernames which contain a single word letter or number are stolen or traded this behavior violates our policies in a number of ways
Starting point is 00:12:35 we don't allow people to buy sell or trade aspects of their account including usernames we're consistently taking steps to disincentivize and stop this behavior including removing accounts that violate our policies this is part of an ongoing process like social media companies create new rules to cut down on scamming then the scammers find new ways around that rule and the process just starts over it's a tale as old as time exactly Instagram's been working on this since at least 2014 when they banned millions of entirely fake accounts when I see something like what happened last week it's pretty easy for me to see this is probably just another step in the process of fine tuning their way like making it so you can't exploit people
Starting point is 00:13:17 yeah because I did see that the Krasnstein brothers had been absolutely selling from everything I can tell yeah yeah and they were like no we totally weren't and then there's shit tons of screenshots of them doing exactly that it appears that that is definitely what they were up to yeah yeah yeah but we'll see what happens with this Instagram thing I see every reason to suspend judgment and see like these accounts very well may have been breaking their rules and I also looked over the screen names for all the ones that were banned and like obviously I'm not some fucking meme guy
Starting point is 00:13:53 out there cruising Instagram for all this the freshest memes you are not doing it for the gram that is true but I looked through all the account names and none of them were like MAGA 2020 yeah yeah yeah none of them had associations with Trump or Nationalism Trump 69 69 no it was I don't know I don't know that these were actually even accounts that were making Trump memes some of them very well may have been sure like it wasn't like Count Danculo it was in the mix or something
Starting point is 00:14:20 anyway also if Alex Jones cared at all about social media purges and shadow bands and all that shit that he talks about all the time if you weren't just trying to bring up these topics for completely self-serving positions and his wounded narcissism by now I would have imagined that he would bring up how sex workers are being pushed off social media spaces at least once in the time that I've listened to him and I've never heard him bring that up yeah you really would think that yeah because it does seem like he would have to be he would be okay with that he's a libertarian
Starting point is 00:14:49 shouldn't he be like sex workers should absolutely have he's a fucking libertarian well yeah so the reason Alex is freaking out so much about this and exaggerating it to such an extreme level is twofold the first is what you pointed out already he wants to get back on social media yeah of course it's exhausting for him to have to try and keep doing these like public stunts in order to keep his name in the public's eye but if he doesn't do that his audience is going to slowly dwindle and he's going to go out of business
Starting point is 00:15:15 second Alex is keenly aware that these syndicates of interconnected meme distributors who are able to create artificial virality are really the best option left for disseminating propaganda on social media if social media companies are starting to address that problem on their platform he knows that his ideas are going to have to compete on a level playing ground with other people and they're going to fail miserably yeah that's not good if you can't win, cheat so this is one of Alex's gigantic narratives and he is freaking out about it these meme accounts that got banned
Starting point is 00:15:46 he's trying to, I have to be super clear about this he's trying to imply and will directly say that it's 200 million people got kicked off Instagram which is complete and utter bullshit yeah that's insane the only way to justify using that number in any way is to say that the small number of accounts that got kicked off had large followings who are still on Instagram exactly
Starting point is 00:16:11 right it's completely insane that's like when he said that he had 3 billion listeners worldwide and the aggregate really 40% of the world listens to your show right including babies yeah well of course
Starting point is 00:16:27 so in this next clip he gets to another terrifying reality that we are facing with Instagram cracking down on these dank meme promoters you just love saying dank meme don't you I don't know I feel weird saying that I feel like I'm really out of my lane you feel so, it's weird every time I say it I feel so fucking old it's the, I feel exactly the same way I would feel if I tried to wear a hat backwards just like don't do it
Starting point is 00:16:56 no that would not work well with you no so there's a war on memes Jordan this Instagram thing is a part of it and then there's more okay and they've almost passed a bill in the house of representatives right now bipartisan to give people $30,000 fines for memes
Starting point is 00:17:16 I'm not joking which ones they're straight to J ladies and gentlemen that's where this country has gone 15 to $30,000 fines that's the same thing they passed in Europe last year my listeners thought I was making it up
Starting point is 00:17:35 and didn't think it was real it's the law in Europe I kind of like that vocal flourish there so in this narrative Alex is misrepresenting the copyright alternative in small claims enforcement act of 2019 or the case act the act is designed to make it easier for holders of copyrights to protect their copyrighted protected work without having to subject themselves to lengthy and expensive court proceedings
Starting point is 00:18:04 it would mostly involve creating small claims court mechanisms to simplify the process and expedite it and make it so you don't have to exert tons of money in order to protect your material because that does disincentivize people from protecting what is theirs if they have intellectual rights to if it costs you more to fight against it then it would be to just ignore it then why the hell would you fight against it right when you have every reason to fight ultimately this legislation is not just a way to outlaw memes
Starting point is 00:18:34 although memes could definitely be seriously affected but here's the thing what people are doing with memes in many cases is already illegal when it involves clearly copyrighted material it's technically illegal well yeah people are allowed to get away with it because most of the time the copyright holders know it's more hassle than it's worth to go after someone who's illegally breaching their copyright
Starting point is 00:18:55 the case act doesn't make anything illegal that was previously legal it really is just about making it easier for people to protect their own intellectual property and for Alex someone who's super into property rights it doesn't make sense for him to be opposed to people being able to defend their property obviously unless you are obviously this kind of legislation could have a huge impact on memes but I find it very difficult to imagine that even if the case act does succeed in going through
Starting point is 00:19:27 they would have much of an effect on how individual users of social media platforms used memes I think it would just make it easier to sue people with large platforms who profit off using copyrighted material and defend themselves by saying it's just a meme I can't think of anyone who might apply to it's hard to hear Alex misrepresenting the story and not think about how he just had to pay Matt Fury the creator of Pepe the Frog $15,000 for using his copyrighted material in a poster that info was sold on their website seems odd
Starting point is 00:19:57 the case act had it been in place would have been a big problem for Alex's legal strategy in that case immediately after Fury and Alex reached their settlement Alex had his lawyer Robert Barnes on his show to discuss the case their angle on it was crystal clear and it was basically boiled down to if you want to spend a ton of money suing Alex and then win $15,000 go ahead they weren't defending their innocence or saying that they were right they were clearly signaling that their legal strategy was to create circumstances where it is way too costly for anyone to fight Alex in court so they give up or they don't even bring the suit in the first place
Starting point is 00:20:32 that's one of the ways Alex protects himself yeah it's very similar to what debt collectors like there are so many people who will buy debt from credit card companies and then they'll take you to court but most of them never show up all that happens is they wind up losing their case because they didn't show up and if you show up you'd find out that the I've had a number of friends beat traffic tickets that way just by showing up just show up
Starting point is 00:20:58 it doesn't always work obviously but in a number of instances it's not worth it to pay the cop to go to court exactly and you just end up that gets thrown out for sure if the case act goes through Alex is far more vulnerable on matters of copyright I can't say for sure it would lead to any actual suits being filed
Starting point is 00:21:17 but the number of potential suits have to be something that really fucking worries him I suspect that this is what's motivating him to misrepresent this story as if it's the end of the world also to his point that the case act is being discussed now because it's like he's presenting it as like the globalists are making their move it's a way to take out Trump to take over the internet this exact same act was introduced in October 2017 I doubt it
Starting point is 00:21:41 so I kind of also find it funny that Alex brings up how this is the same as what was passed in Europe last year partially because it was passed in March 2019 and because the EU rules that's not last year also because the EU rules that were passed are a completely different thing than what Alex is talking about or even what the case act is sure
Starting point is 00:22:03 he's trying to present the idea that in Europe if you post a meme you're getting a fine and that's absurd for one again this is a rule that the EU passed to aid in copyright enforcement in the new age of technology second I'm going to read to you about this rule from an article in Wired quote the most controversial part of the copyright directive makes platforms like
Starting point is 00:22:23 Google and Facebook responsible for copyright violations and material posted by their users previously users not the platform were liable people posting memes wouldn't be fine the platform would maybe even come down to that but it creates an incentive for Facebook and Google to protect the copyrighted material
Starting point is 00:22:43 that's being misused by their users as opposed to all the consequences falling on the individual user right it's they need to become their own cops instead of or they at least want to do some part yeah exactly and if they don't then they're complicit in the misuse of this intellectual property and also don't worry that EU rule didn't infringe on member states sovereignty
Starting point is 00:23:07 each state was specifically left to their own devices to write their own laws and come up with how they would implement practices to protect copyrights through Europe nothing that Alex says in this at all is real it's all just blustery bullshit he's hoping he'll add up to enough incitement to get Trump to somehow force Facebook and Twitter to let him back on the platform because you can hear that he's directing this to Trump
Starting point is 00:23:31 it's so much like sir please put me back on Facebook there's so much of that yeah you can just feel it yeah yeah yeah and I think it's probably in some way motivated by like the longer things go on
Starting point is 00:23:46 the worse his situation is does he really think that Trump could even do that? like Trump doesn't have the capability to do that that's simply not a thing that he can do as an executive I mean it would be an interesting thing to consider how he might yeah right? yeah I mean I guess you could probably take away tax relief from these companies
Starting point is 00:24:08 if they didn't allow Alex back on try and put some sort of pressure on the companies to allow Alex back on as opposed to like which would be really fucked up like he can't write an executive order that's just like Alex Jones gets back on Facebook I mean he could I don't know how enforceable it would be
Starting point is 00:24:25 it would be really weird that would be really weird but this boils down to something that I think is like a real trend of Alex's that we've talked about a bit but it bears mentioning over and over again he wants a king well yeah I mean that's a big part of it
Starting point is 00:24:37 all of his ideas are so anti-king and anti-monarchist and whatever you but he believes that individuals are able to do everything yeah he thinks that everyone is omnipotent on some level and it leads him down really fucked up but like roads like Trump needs to fix the internet yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:24:57 what is he gonna fucking do? he's gonna you know what? he's gonna buckle down he's gonna pull himself up by his bootstraps just like he did a long time ago when his dad gave him a million million million dollar loan Mr. President
Starting point is 00:25:10 yep get me back on Twitter tear down this wall between me and Twitter so in this next clip Alex breaks down that if Trump goes down we all go down and Trump is gonna go down if he doesn't deal with these meme accounts
Starting point is 00:25:27 being kicked off okay next hour though I'm tearing into POTUS do it because let me tell you if he goes down I'm gonna have to leave the country
Starting point is 00:25:36 because they are coming after me they're coming after you which is a global threat and I've been watching Trump closely and I've been talking to his advisors and finally some of my people have gotten meetings with his head campaign guy in Florida
Starting point is 00:25:49 and they're finally getting it some but not quick enough we need dramatic action so you gotta get those meme accounts back on because the memes are so important they're how we communicate so look
Starting point is 00:26:03 I think Alex is making his panic a little too clear here I think that Alex knows that he's gotten himself into a no-win situation largely because connecting himself so closely to Trump and his policies like by doing that Alex has radicalized himself past the point of no return
Starting point is 00:26:17 and his audience has gone down the same road with him like what does he do if Trump loses in 2020? legitimately, what can he do? he's made the argument that this guy becoming president is America's last shot against the globalists who want to destroy America and kill your families what's he going to do?
Starting point is 00:26:34 is he gonna tell his audience to gear up for the 2020 midterms? and then try and start a big impeachment campaign when the system is already by definition controlled by the globalists? his audience is so far past that shit and like with Alex's bullshit that he's spread about demons and child sacrifice
Starting point is 00:26:52 being so defining of these enemies if Alex tried to pivot back to being an opposition voice to the party in power by advocating for anything short of armed insurrection his audience would abandon him so fast his bank account would spin yeah, absolutely his empty-ass bank account would spin
Starting point is 00:27:08 which further cements my position that Trump will not leave office simultaneously, Alex isn't a huge problem if Trump wins and Alex's personal situation doesn't improve how long can Alex argue that Trump is in a death battle with the very same globalist enemies that Alex is against
Starting point is 00:27:28 without Trump doing anything at all to help Alex? if they were actually allies in anything more than lip service level bullshit you'd think that Trump would want to protect and support his most public supporter and the only voice in the media who really gets it the more and more Alex has to pay the consequences
Starting point is 00:27:45 for his actions and the longer it goes where Trump doesn't seem to give a fuck about Alex the harder it is for Alex to create the impression that he's anything other than a useful idiot for an aspiring authoritarian who he'd hoped would help him advance his own personal interests and it has not gone that way
Starting point is 00:28:01 yeah, it seems like Alex is going to have to fall on his sword and play the martyr it doesn't seem like there's any other... it's almost inevitable yeah well, I honestly think that Alex kind of realizes that he's painted himself into a bad corner but unless something very specific happens
Starting point is 00:28:18 his days are numbered not in the sense that his life is in danger or anything like that but that what he does doesn't serve any purpose anymore because he's become so entwined with Trump as things escalate in our country he has to escalate along with it and be party to that escalation
Starting point is 00:28:34 he can't recede he can't give an inch because the audience he's cultivated in the last few years won't allow it if Alex gives an inch it's not him just trying to moderate and be less extreme or be reasonable
Starting point is 00:28:46 it's seeding ground to literal demons and child murderers and that's a bad position to be in any negotiation, any compromise is compromise with the devil you can't compromise with the devil you can have sympathy for him though only in a song
Starting point is 00:29:02 the only two positive outcomes for Alex right now are for Trump to become an authoritarian ruler rounding up his enemies with the army imposing restrictions on businesses he doesn't like and ruthlessly suppressing the press or Trump loses and there's a civil war peace in any form is not a marketable option for Alex anymore
Starting point is 00:29:20 he is too far gone there was a time last year when we were talking about what is it going to take for him to pivot away from Trump and how could he dismount those days are gone I think he understands that in order to retain the audience that he has
Starting point is 00:29:37 a new stream that has become so crucial he can't I really don't think I think it's possible that he could but it would be one of the hardest maneuvers ever and it would require
Starting point is 00:29:53 it would require going to such an extreme level you would have to advocate bombing buildings he would have to turn on the government in such a hard way from the IRA essentially but Trump would be the target of it
Starting point is 00:30:09 Trump would have to do something or at least Alex would have to create a narrative where Trump had done something so extreme Trump doesn't have to do something Alex would have to spin the narrative that Trump has abandoned us and all our globalists
Starting point is 00:30:24 and the logical conclusion that his audience would accept would he'd have to be advocating for violence and that would be the civil war option that I'm talking about to retain his place in the market other than that he's useless Trump would rather have QAnon people around
Starting point is 00:30:40 than him he had Lionel come to the White House he pointed at the Q-baby as long as he's got Fox and friends Trump keeps retweeting Q-accounts like QAnon people accounts I refuse to pay attention to any of Trump's tweets
Starting point is 00:30:55 I refuse on principle he's given way more public appreciation to that than Alex he has to know that and the optics of it are terrible I hear clips like that last one where Alex is talking about
Starting point is 00:31:09 if Trump doesn't win I gotta leave the country and shit and I can't help but think about how much better Alex's life would have been if he didn't sign up with Trump he could have maintained his imagined position as the guy who's above partisan politics and honestly
Starting point is 00:31:23 I think about this someone with his talents offering a criticism of Trump from the right would probably be a very marketable thing in this environment in 2019 it would be even in 2016, 2017, 2018 like all along the way
Starting point is 00:31:37 someone with the gifts that Alex has just in terms of pure talent you would ignore a whole lot of the other terrible things about him if he was offering a right-wing critique like he would have done a much better job trying to push his shit into the mainstream
Starting point is 00:31:52 than Glenn Beck did like look what Glenn Beck tried to pull off it was embarrassing but it worked like a lot of people really tried to help rehab his image Alex could have done something like that and he's so much better at being a liar than Glenn Beck is
Starting point is 00:32:08 he's not nearly, I mean he's embarrassing but he's not just on a pure competence level he's better than Glenn Beck and I think he could have made so much money in that space like he could have gotten left people over to his side again
Starting point is 00:32:24 he could have done all that shit that he was doing during the Ron Paul times you know I don't think actually I think he maybe he could have but my guess is he did not want to find out he doesn't want to find out if his audience loves him more
Starting point is 00:32:41 than Trump or Trump more than him that's a dangerous that's a dangerous fight you know but if he had never gotten on board with him and been against him it would have been perfect for him because he could have retained the audience that he had and built in a different direction that was
Starting point is 00:32:57 much more on brand with him the counter to the power it would have been like so reinforcing of everything like you'd have like oh yeah he appears to not be a globalist but he is it would have worked so especially when he put his hands on the orb
Starting point is 00:33:13 and he said he was a globalist you would have been able to fucking murder him there were so many news stories that have come out in every single thing that falls in line with all of Alex's old narratives but Rex84 Posse Commentaris he could have made so much money off that
Starting point is 00:33:29 he could have been just banking I think about it it sucks it sucks that he's so awful now he's a really awful pile of shit but you could take some comfort in knowing that he's only such
Starting point is 00:33:45 an awful pile of shit right now because he's dealing with the worst decision he's ever made and he's spiraling the drain so there's some cold comfort in that like that he could have flown under the radar with all of this awful white nationalist white identity bullshit
Starting point is 00:34:01 like he could have very easily Trojan Horst himself closer to the mainstream if he hadn't made this decision right so it's sour grapes it is the truth that racism is bad for you as well you know
Starting point is 00:34:17 the people who voted for Trump solely white or poor people who voted for Trump which is most of them they're the ones who are also being fucked over by Trump's policies like they're not getting any increase in
Starting point is 00:34:33 taxes you know they're fucked over too and take policies even out of it they're not happier yeah no absolutely not just internally they're not happier they're miserable more filled with rage speaking of rage former rage against the machine member
Starting point is 00:34:49 Tom Morello? No I was going to try and pretend that this next guy is someone who he's not Alex is mad at Donnie Deutch sure former rage against the machine member Donnie Deutch fine I don't care about Donnie Deutch
Starting point is 00:35:05 I don't care about Alex being mad at him enjoy guys the only reason I left this clip in is because Alex is mad at Donnie Deutch and the way he describes Mr. Deutch is it just seems like Alex is talking about himself
Starting point is 00:35:21 and I love Donnie Deutch or whatever his stupid name is what a punk man Trump will never be elected Trump will be out in 6 months all of it by the way we have almost no ratings their average show has 200,000 viewers oh no
Starting point is 00:35:37 before they shadow banned me on Facebook and Twitter my average live video had 2 million views Hillary lost they shadow banned me average video had 100,000 views then they totally banned me because you can't compete you schmucks no one wants to watch you Donnie Deutch
Starting point is 00:35:53 no one wants to hear you everyone hates you except the few mental patients that watch your show or people tuning in to get the talking poise to go out and lie that part at the end there is just such a crystallization of Alex's shit absolutely no one wants to listen to your dumb show
Starting point is 00:36:09 except some fucking brainwashed weirdos who believe you're stupid bullshit and people who tune in in order to help argue get talking points to argue with people online that is such a and I think that Alex is probably less useful of that second category
Starting point is 00:36:25 these days but he definitely he knows that that's what his show is used for for a long time and we've listened to calls that were specifically hey Alex my family says this what should I say back to them tell them they're globalists so Alex gets back
Starting point is 00:36:41 now to the Instagram narrative and I think this clip is important because he's really saying that 200 million people got kicked off Instagram they've been cheating all along and now Google and all of them are 200 million accounts on
Starting point is 00:36:57 Facebook and Instagram that supported the president all annihilated 200 million I wouldn't count him up he went and counted him up he went and counted him up by like one two because he actually does explain how he did it no tell me
Starting point is 00:37:13 200 million I wouldn't count him up it was reported on Friday it was like 120 million it's 200 million today as of three hours ago I spent 30 minutes going through and checking all these accounts and looking and adding the numbers up on a calculator a big old fat business calculator
Starting point is 00:37:29 and I've shot an emergency report to the president so Alex broke out his accounting calculator oh it has to have the roll of paper it has to have the roll of paper please I just mind reels
Starting point is 00:37:45 I just picture a desk with a little lamp on it Alex has got a visor on oh my god 200 million I've got to tell the president and he's got a crank too he's got the crank oh god I want to watch that
Starting point is 00:38:01 he's just panicking I must tell the white house I would give anything to have that video put out that would go viral so he's just making that up that's just a lie the 200 million accounts are gone and it would take more than a half hour to uh yeah yeah yeah yeah this is just
Starting point is 00:38:17 he knows what calculators do I guess and he's embellishing what he did with one so Alex gets on to another narrative that I think is actually super interesting and here we go well even looking I've got stacks of articles here stacks on stacks important to point out
Starting point is 00:38:33 that he's not looking California and Illinois and Maryland and everywhere the democrats are control people are losing there student loan financial aid
Starting point is 00:38:49 because the unions and the lawyers are stealing all of it just like Detroit fell the most prosperous area of our country now the poorest 8 80,000 California students lose financial aid thanks to
Starting point is 00:39:05 teachers union I don't need that clip anymore guys I don't need the clip anymore can we just have a document camp shot thanks so again 80,000 California students lose financial aid thanks to teachers union state government
Starting point is 00:39:21 think about that okay doesn't sound true and that's just one in my stack today what you get under their control is collapse of civilization you can tell by the way he's like
Starting point is 00:39:37 really taking long pauses I don't know this story I don't understand I don't know what's happening I see a headline I think I can roll with it state government teachers there we go teachers union that's bad yeah so according to Alex 80,000 students lost
Starting point is 00:39:53 their financial aid important they lost it doesn't sound true in California and it's all the fault of these meddling teachers unions these damn liberals and unions they're out to crush everyone and get students kicked out of California universities it really doesn't sound like them honestly I have no idea why Alex doesn't even care
Starting point is 00:40:09 about a story like this even if it were true he thinks colleges especially ones in blue states are just liberal brainwashing centers so I figure he'd think it was great that people are losing their ability to go to them I think it shouldn't be a net positive shouldn't he be happy about that yeah I guess the lesson here is to never underestimate
Starting point is 00:40:25 how much he and his intellectual ancestors hate the idea of workers being able to have any control over their destiny and how they'll take any opportunity possible to malign labor well that's what his dad told him right out the womb he was like communism is exactly what unions are so from it from his first
Starting point is 00:40:41 breath fuck labor yeah he was yelling that while he was living oh damn it you were too quick so here's the first of the myriad problems of the story that Alex is telling this has nothing to do with California being a blue state it was the result of a federal
Starting point is 00:40:57 rule from the department of education the one run by fucking Betsy god damn damn it well it's actually you know the the regulation question was made at the end of Obama's term so it's not a hundred percent okay cool Betsy's fault here she didn't make it better no yeah
Starting point is 00:41:13 the regulation had to do with states being required to have a system in place for in-state residents who take classes remotely from out-of-state institutions with the rule including that if there weren't a process in place for dealing with these students concerns then recipients of federal student aid like Pell grants would
Starting point is 00:41:29 lose access to said aid it was a measure to protect students and although it's a little bit complicated there are absolutely consumer protection related issues and reasons for a rule like this to be in place naturally since trump and his administration ate anything Obama did
Starting point is 00:41:45 they fought the implementation of this rule it didn't go into effect until July 1st 2018 and even then trumps people were trying to delay having to enforce it yeah somebody they were sued to enforce it yeah absolutely just this April a judge ruled that
Starting point is 00:42:01 they couldn't postpone enforcing the rule any longer so they started accepting that this rule was an actual rule on July 22nd 2019 that was like a week ago that was a week ago yeah that judge also ruled that education secretary Betsy Davos had illegally
Starting point is 00:42:17 made the rules implementation Alex is blaming unions for this because the national education association and the California teachers associations are the ones who sued Betsy Davos to get the rule implemented absolutely California is the state that's most affected by this very immediate shift
Starting point is 00:42:33 in the rule being real because they're the only state that's not part of the national council for state authorization reciprocity agreements called CERA which basically is just a series of agreements that the states recognize each other's protections for students California doesn't
Starting point is 00:42:49 belong to that because they feel that the body does not offer strong enough consumer protections for the students now they probably should have had something in place to deal with the rule long before Davos's lawsuit came to an end but I think that if you just look at what's going on in the world
Starting point is 00:43:05 they had every reason to think that this rule would never be implemented and until it was they weren't out of compliance with the rule and they had some systems in place just that weren't up to that rule the bigger issue is that as soon as California learned that the rule was in place and that it was enforceable
Starting point is 00:43:21 the California Department of Consumer Affairs immediately created a complaint system for students so they met all the requirements of the regulation and just like that all of the students who were at risk of losing their financial aid were no longer at risk of losing their financial aid by the time Alex got on air on July 28th
Starting point is 00:43:37 this problem was already resolved he's misrepresenting the story that the students lost their financial aid when they were only at risk of losing it if California wasn't in compliance with a federal regulation he's lying about the union involvement in the situation and completely whitewashing
Starting point is 00:43:53 Betsy Davos' role put simply, Alex is a liar and a really lazy dude who's on air misrepresenting news that's already outdated just to make it look like unions are bad and blue states are evil quite frankly, he's a loser that's bullshit
Starting point is 00:44:09 that's real serious bullshit I really, really, really hate Betsy Davos like he fucking cares about these students getting financial aid to go to college no shit what the fuck is he even trying to pretend yeah and Betsy Davos could go fly a kite too with her involvement in student aid issues
Starting point is 00:44:25 yeah, no shit the loan program it bothers me that they received no funds she was found to be illegally doing something in their life and also you will receive no consequences other than you successfully delayed this rule for two fucking years
Starting point is 00:44:41 yeah, yeah, I mean everybody had every reason to assume that they were going to create more legal hurdles or just make it so like okay the court said that the rule is in place but it's not exactly, yeah it's a chaotic environment that Trump and his administration are creating around
Starting point is 00:44:57 these types of issues so to then turn around and blame somebody for not following the rule that the federal government is, it's a federal rule and they're saying this rule is bullshit we're not going to do it I know that you should follow rules
Starting point is 00:45:13 but you're also creating an environment where no one knows what rules are real and no one knows what rules to follow and even if they are real it's chaos and it's by design because it's the same thing as what we were talking about earlier with
Starting point is 00:45:29 it's just too much trouble to sue somebody for not enough gain where it's like if Trump just stops following all of these rules nobody knows which ones to put their energy into making him follow
Starting point is 00:45:45 so you can sue him on every possible rule but random enforcement is a hallmark of sort of autocratic leaders because then you create the environment where you could be punished for anything or nothing and targeted enforcement is very very important
Starting point is 00:46:01 so over at the end of last week into the weekend there was a little bit of a dust-up between one Donald Trump and Elijah Cummings if you'll recall I did not hear anything about that
Starting point is 00:46:17 Cummings made some comments to the ICE director about the situation in the camps where immigrants and refugees are being held and Trump didn't take kindly to this and called
Starting point is 00:46:33 Baltimore Pile of Shit more or less Rat Infested Mass and people didn't appreciate that so much because of the very clearly racist coded language that was used and
Starting point is 00:46:49 yeah, I see what they're saying I get it, I think they make a decent point it is nice now knowing that we can completely disregard anything that anybody in the GOP says you're all racist, done at least if you vote for Trump
Starting point is 00:47:09 you're a racist at least you prioritize things that or you dis-prioritize standing up against racist things at very least your priorities are such that something else takes higher
Starting point is 00:47:25 than dignity I say it's a tacit admission of racism I think we're saying the same things just slightly differently so Alex responds to this by appealing to that video that we discussed on a recent episode
Starting point is 00:47:41 where he created a completely artificial appearance of these camps by combining Candace Owens's video from a year ago Nazi propaganda and this DHHS center specifically created to keep kids out of
Starting point is 00:47:57 ICE and Border Patrol so Alex created that video to create a false presentation and appearance of what these ICE camps and centers were like so he uses that to be like this is what Elijah Cummings is talking about so then he gets past that hurdle
Starting point is 00:48:13 then he has to deal with the fact that Trump said this clearly racist coded language to attack Elijah Cummings and instead of really addressing that what he decides to do is make fun
Starting point is 00:48:29 of Victor Blackwell the CNN anchor who broke down and was on the verge of tears while discussing how he experienced Trump tweeting about Elijah Cummings this way an echo of election night
Starting point is 00:48:45 mocking people who are Alex likes to mock minorities who are crying it seems like a pretty big piece of his his show so what he does I'm going to play these clips and they're a little bit tough just in terms of the lack of humanity that Alex is showing
Starting point is 00:49:01 but I wanted to really drive home the point that Alex is really making a meal out of making fun of this anchor having an emotional reaction to Trump using dehumanizing language consistently towards non-white people
Starting point is 00:49:17 did you hear he called black people rats and CNN goes yeah, Trump called blacks rats are you insulting whether you're white or black or whatever the hell color you are that they lie to us like this that this is what they do and aren't you sick of it
Starting point is 00:49:33 but it gets worse CNN anchor Victor Blackwell chokes up on air after Trump rips infested Baltimore black people so you see already what he's doing is he's created the false appearance of the conversation that's being had
Starting point is 00:49:51 the idea that everyone is saying that Trump called black people rats is not what people are responding to so he's already shifted the goalposts created a straw man for himself to talk about so now here is some more of this
Starting point is 00:50:07 this is a pretty disgraceful shit here's the crying CNN reporter there's a revolution going on in California so many sanctuary areas want out of this ridiculous crime infested and breeding concept infested he says
Starting point is 00:50:23 so real quick before we get to Alex's response I think it's really important to point out that the part of Victor Blackwell's piece that people were posting and got pretty popular on online was I saw it all over the place
Starting point is 00:50:39 the important context that Alex is cutting out of the beginning of this clip is he's explaining that it hurts to hear the president of the United States use consistently dehumanizing language about non-white people he points out in this segment
Starting point is 00:50:55 that Alex I don't know how he decided where to cut this oh yeah but he includes a discussion of that in all of Trump's 43,000 tweets he only uses the word infested to describe a place that's predominantly non-white
Starting point is 00:51:11 and to attack non-white legislators that he's beefing with and that there are instances of white legislators that he's gotten into fights with and he doesn't use that same sort of language when he does so that is the conversation and that is what Victor Blackwell's
Starting point is 00:51:27 piece is about Alex deprives it of that context in order to make fun of just the fact that Blackwell gets emotional which is really gross the president says about congressman Cummings district
Starting point is 00:51:47 this is the worst acting I've ever seen watch your show that no human would want to live there you know who did Mr. President I did from the day I was brought home from the hospital hit pause and back it up
Starting point is 00:52:03 I'm going to start from the beginning this is mind control folks Trump's trying to say clean it up help people no human should have to live there it's not good conditions the same stuff coming says about the board patrol that isn't true you're treating these kids like animals
Starting point is 00:52:19 no human should put up with this Trump's like no human should put up with what you're doing to your own people and what you allow the city doesn't even spend the money they steal to clean up garbage in the street so they let gangbangers kill people and attack the police what?
Starting point is 00:52:35 then you cry about how Trump's trying to hurt you because you prey on those people anchor victor Blackwell so there's obviously there are endemic problems and systematic problems in a city like Baltimore and there are it's far more complicated than I would be able to
Starting point is 00:52:51 explain to anybody yeah you can't just watch the wire it's not enough just to watch there's oversimplification that Alex is doing here that is disgusting it's very shitty but it's another
Starting point is 00:53:07 expression of what we talked about earlier this idea that Alex thinks that one person can do anything so Elijah Cummings is here and he represents this area therefore he can fix it and if he doesn't fix it he must be profiting off
Starting point is 00:53:23 not fixing it or he must want it to be this way which isn't necessarily good thinking no it's absolutely impossible for these people to understand the interconnectedness of problems and the way that if you pull one lever
Starting point is 00:53:39 here it will change something often times unexpected sure now is there corruption involved that probably could be addressed of course we live in Chicago right almost certainly are there better strategies that maybe should be explored
Starting point is 00:53:55 possibly absolutely entirely possible people who care are discussing those things yeah yeah Alex and Trump are not so in this next we get back here to Alex making fun of Victor Blackwell because he goes on
Starting point is 00:54:11 for quite a while doing this it's pretty gross from the day I was brought home from the hospital to the day I left for college there are a lot of people I care about they'll do there are challenges no doubt go help them then but people are proud of their community
Starting point is 00:54:27 I want to hear what this jackass has done and who lives there and I want to hear what you gave and what you like Obama almost like we live in a car we'd like a house you got a car lady no democrat got her house republicans did I have no idea what he's talking about he's rambling quite a bit but
Starting point is 00:54:43 Alex what do you know about what Victor Blackwell's done what do you know about his personal life what do you know about his giving what do you know do you know anything no absolutely no shit he's just assuming right and that's just I don't know
Starting point is 00:54:59 I don't know how to describe this other than knee jerk white supremacy yeah yeah and if you gave him examples of oh look Blackwell did this for his community oh look Blackwell he'd say well that's not enough or that's nothing or you're full of shit or yada yada yada there's no
Starting point is 00:55:15 it's a losing game to even explore it's just worthwhile pointing out that Alex assumes that it's nothing yeah so here's the last clip of this let's finish up with this turd basket proud of their community turd basket I don't want to sound self-righteous when people get up and go to work
Starting point is 00:55:33 there they care for their families there they love their children who pledge allegiance to the flag just like people who live in districts of congressmen who support you sir that isn't the fakers crap I've ever seen so this guy is crapping all over the truth so when we
Starting point is 00:55:49 see stuff like this this behavior is indicative of things that are threatening to Alex yeah dude the mocking of it the constant repetition going back and like doing the fake crying over it and and this is brainwashing it's that is the behavior that Alex employs towards
Starting point is 00:56:05 things that are pretty prevalent like there's no denying that this clip went all over the place people reposting it yeah it's something that you would assume that his audience would have access to or they might come in contact to with and it's making an argument
Starting point is 00:56:21 that is threatening to Alex yeah because it does point out I mean Alex doesn't play the part that says this but it does discuss Victor Blackwell does clearly discuss the idea that Trump uses these sorts of language and these linguistic
Starting point is 00:56:37 terms specifically in situations when he's attacking non-white people and it is hard to hear it's something that it has an effect on people yeah and if that were allowed to be seen as a legitimate
Starting point is 00:56:53 perspective that someone has it runs the risk of opening up his audience's eyes to an empathic position and understanding how other people feel right that is dangerous to Alex right so he must mock it right right that is that even though
Starting point is 00:57:09 a large number of his audience would actually be like yeah I love that he says all of that shit yeah Baltimore is infested with but there's a crucial distinction and like later on one of these other episodes believe on the Monday episode he plays a clip of Marianne
Starting point is 00:57:25 Williamson how hosting an apology session where like white people apologize to black people and he does he doesn't need to mock that yeah because he has created an environment where that looks like an absurd spectacle
Starting point is 00:57:41 yeah so he can just play that and not interrupt it yeah so there's very different ways that Alex uses other media and it's important to understand that this strategy is employed when something is a threat to him yeah I believe that that is definitely the case
Starting point is 00:57:57 so Alex earlier said that he was going to take Trump to the woodshed because of this meme sure sure okay alright here we go he doesn't take him to the woodshed so what he does is he has a pre-recorded message to the president
Starting point is 00:58:13 where he says that Trump you're committing suicide if you don't help your boy out wrestling shoot gotcha yes basically yeah this is I would describe this as very embarrassing like the idea that he thinks first of all he thinks he's talking directly to the president
Starting point is 00:58:29 crazy second if he thinks he's talking to the president he has to think that the president is as stupid as one of his listeners which may or may not be true it's absolutely true but no matter what this is just an exercise in embarrassment the democrats admit
Starting point is 00:58:45 the EU admits the big tech giants admit that memes are more powerful than all cable news combined now it's how America communicates and the fact that you've let them do this to thousands of other prominent conservatives and nationalists and haven't taken action yet
Starting point is 00:59:01 other than criticizing it has greenlit the purges to now be exponential this is your distribution network for 24 hours that was getting your speeches and your statements and your administrations truth out to counter the establishment lies
Starting point is 00:59:17 and they're just being annihilated on a daily basis over 200 million in just the last three days he's implying this 200 million accounts that are all gone Trump is as stupid enough hey Trump said that 3 million illegal immigrants voted in the election so fuck off
Starting point is 00:59:33 but Alex is also being clear like he's making it so overt this is your distribution network where your truth he literally almost said we're your propaganda network you're losing us you're not going to get rid of gerbils
Starting point is 00:59:49 that's not a good idea I understand that I'm gone from social media but I can still be some use I'm still making a profit so we're cool I'm going to keep on doing what I'm doing I got my area of the market
Starting point is 01:00:05 no one's going to nudge me from that I am in trouble if you lose my brand is fucked you're going to lose if you don't have a ton of dank meme propagandists out there you need so many people distracting everybody
Starting point is 01:00:21 with all of these manufactured bullshit lies if you don't do it your business is gone Trump, get with the program you need to protect Count Dankula build a wall around Dankula everyone get in formation get in formation
Starting point is 01:00:39 we need a flanks protect Scott Adams now circle this circle Dilbert's wagons alright everybody protect Catbert this is like dogbert
Starting point is 01:00:55 dogbert trouble dogbert is behind all of this this is like it's so overt the sort of the motivations behind this it's just so much like in the state we're in I'm fucked
Starting point is 01:01:11 if you go down and you need these dudes you need these crazy dudes you need these liars if you keep on this path we're actually going to have to say you should become the king and I don't want to do that
Starting point is 01:01:27 I've been trying to keep people thinking that I don't want a king for so many years don't make me do it overtly it's a hard pitch for my audience to be monarchists I've been slow playing them for a long time
Starting point is 01:01:43 but here we are so in this next clip which is still from his address to the president this implies again that 200 million people gone which again benign ludicrous and on and on every few hours new giant list come out
Starting point is 01:01:59 we go click on them they're dead gone, gone, gone, gone because nothing is being done by your administration we've heard a bunch of talk about antitrust heard a bunch of talk about injunctions this is election meddling imagine if hundreds and hundreds of millions of people following
Starting point is 01:02:15 democrat sites and democrat news organizations were suddenly being deleted in a coordinated fashion there would be an outcry the likes of which the world's never seen so I assume he really hates it whenever Texas and Alabama
Starting point is 01:02:31 and Georgia all purge voters from the rolls, right? I don't think he cares oh you don't think he cares? why do you think that is, dude? because to all just dead people the illegals are using to vote oh okay well then never mind and it's not like there aren't any high-profile
Starting point is 01:02:47 democrats or left-leaning people who haven't been demonetized on YouTube or kicked off Facebook or Twitter it's absurd it's just most of them are like oh that sucks yep don't turn it into their new identity
Starting point is 01:03:03 it's a good thing that that wasn't my primary source of income they recognize that it is a shitty free speech crusade to go on because it doesn't make sense so in this next clip Alex sort of threatens Trump vaguely that if he doesn't get on board
Starting point is 01:03:19 something's gonna happen Trump I'm sitting here watching these lila-pullies eat you alive and carve you up like a giant ham oh boy and damn it I care about you and my fate's tied to you and I'm pissed buddy if you keep sitting there and taking this crap
Starting point is 01:03:35 I'm not gonna put up with it anymore because it doesn't matter how good your agenda is and how many other great things you do you sit there and let these out of control criminals walk in here and steal our first amendment and steal this damn election haha we got it that I don't know what I'm gonna be forced to do
Starting point is 01:03:51 but let me tell you watching you let these bastards pull this off makes me sick so I mean that probably means nothing sternly worded letter I mean it pro I don't know Whitehouse.gov petition that's vaguely racist I don't know I mean like
Starting point is 01:04:07 that that idea is like I don't know what I'm gonna do if you don't get on board I'll probably yell more but also the potential of danger in the vague notion of Alex's audience is such that
Starting point is 01:04:23 I don't take something like that lightly like it's funny because he's personally an impotent force but what he has the potential to inspire and people to do has great negative potential and the idea of him feeling like he has nothing left like his Trump
Starting point is 01:04:39 has abandoned him or something I could see it going real south oh absolutely a clip like that it's always funny when he pretends he's gonna leave Trump just because we see it so many fucking times it's pathetic and because this is about memes
Starting point is 01:04:55 I really have a hard time believing that we live in a world where memes it's whatever they're gonna ruin, they're gonna kill everybody it's laughable on one level but it also is the sort of thing where you gotta you gotta recognize like this is kind of fucked up that'd be interesting if he all of a sudden is like
Starting point is 01:05:11 if it weren't for the NPC meme you never would have gotten the tax reform through and now to talk more about that is my friend who likes to hit things with a hammer yeah so Alex ends this address to the president
Starting point is 01:05:27 I need to be clear this is an address to the president he keeps saying mr. president Trump now here's how he ends it he thanks the audience for their support so isn't he talking about Trump thank you all
Starting point is 01:05:51 for your support okay he's leading up to an ad pivot that doesn't come at the end of his address to the president that's interesting that exact clip that is how he ends up like you need to buy our
Starting point is 01:06:07 that'd be funny if he asked Trump to buy something damn it that would be amazing mr. president if you don't take supermail vitality we'll never get back on facebook I mean it's not really that far off because after he does this the message to the president that ends
Starting point is 01:06:23 with thanking the audience for their support so who was this really targeted at is it performatively targeted at the president but so he goes to commercial and he comes back from commercial and here's what's going on but so often in the fight to keep this operation going I forget to remind viewers
Starting point is 01:06:39 and remind listeners that without you and word of mouth telling people about the show and how to find it without you sharing the audio and the videos that we post at m4s.com the globalists are going to be able to carry out their plan to overthrow this country once and for all that's why it's important for you to please watch this short presentation
Starting point is 01:06:55 at the end of the show today we have some things we can personally do for our bodies and support the broadcast at the same time and I'll see the award-winning back tomorrow 11 a.m. Central with the Monday Additionally I'll Show Show so he had a tape recorded introduction to a pre-recorded infomercial
Starting point is 01:07:11 about iodine that is I don't know jujitsu it's lame is what it is so that's the end of his show on Sunday and I thought that was actually a pretty weird lately so maybe he's trying again
Starting point is 01:07:27 or maybe he's just back to that maybe the Sunday show is important again and so now we get to Monday and this Instagram narrative my friend it's spiraled it's getting close to home for Alex everything is pouring in
Starting point is 01:07:43 I've got family calling me saying they've lost their Instagrams and they're not even political if they see American flags if they see your Christian they're coming after you in an attempt to scare other Christians and other Americans to pull down the American flags to stop talking about Jesus
Starting point is 01:07:59 to stop even calling yourself Christian just like all the big ecumenical movements have done this is here so Alex's family is losing their Instagrams I don't know about that I don't care I'm certain it's not because of American flags
Starting point is 01:08:15 or they say they're Christians could be because they're sharing Alex Jones content that's interesting I don't know, I think it's just made up there's so many things in Alex's world that I just have to be like nope and that is one of them because it's such a service of
Starting point is 01:08:31 an already false narrative the 200 million people getting kicked off Instagram is the narrative that's being built on by my family members are calling me and saying they're being kicked off Instagram so if the bedrock is a lie I have to assume that this garnish is a lie too
Starting point is 01:08:47 I don't know so in this next clip we get an introduction of a guest who's going to show up later but Alex is really excited to have him on Trevor Bauer we have a retired state police officer
Starting point is 01:09:03 his brother is a friend of the show Joe Banister's brother will be popping in at the bottom of the middle of the next hour and he will be getting into the inside scoop on what happened at the garlic festival where several people were shot and killed
Starting point is 01:09:19 including a six year old boy more than what is it 14 people now wounded in the gun free zone so Joe Banister's brother Joe Banister is one of those wild ass tax protesters that Alex has had on for years and now apparently his brother is a cop and he's involved in the garlic festival
Starting point is 01:09:35 Alex says that he ran security for it I can't confirm that I have no idea I'm not really all that interested when we get to his actual interview so I don't even know why he's on other than legitimately we'll get to it
Starting point is 01:09:51 his expert analysis on this is well the cops got a warrant and searched the guy's house it's publicly available information it's got nothing delivering publicly available information with the authority of a retired cop seems to help Alex
Starting point is 01:10:07 Andy's related to Joe yeah that's true another one of the big things that's going on that Alex is covering over this time spin is that time spin that's a good way of putting it that Dan coats the director of national intelligence is stepping down
Starting point is 01:10:23 right and Donald Trump has nominated John Ratcliffe to be his replacement noted genius John Ratcliffe Alex is thrilled with this and that's pretty funny here's a clip of him being thrilled and I will explain why that's ridiculous
Starting point is 01:10:39 on the other end of the fact that Trump's removing the head of the director of national intelligence that oversees the 17 agencies and putting a bulldog in there that will really go after him Congressman John Ratcliffe of Texas former federal prosecutor
Starting point is 01:10:55 that's sending alarm bells throughout the deep state so Alex that might not be the best example of it but he is all about it he's very supportive of this and it's hilarious how Craven and spineless and full of shit Alex Jones is if you need an example that literally gives a fuck about anything you
Starting point is 01:11:11 pretends to stand for look no further than his support of Trump's nomination of John Ratcliffe as his director of national intelligence for one thing John Ratcliffe is not qualified at all for the position of DNI he was the mayor of Heath, Texas population approximately 6,000 for 8 years
Starting point is 01:11:27 during that time George W. Bush appointed him U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Texas a position he was mysteriously only in for a year before returning to public life in 2014 he primaried the sitting Republican in Texas' fourth district in the House of Representatives
Starting point is 01:11:43 he was running against a 17 term incumbent in his opponent Ralph Hall who was 91 years old at that time when Ralph Hall entered government in the Texas Senate JFK was still alive this was an old old man he ran against
Starting point is 01:11:59 you could make your campaign slogan he's 91 and probably win so Ratcliffe didn't have four more years Ratcliffe still only ended up winning with a narrow margin in the primary but that district is so conservative that no Democrat even bothered
Starting point is 01:12:15 to run so he won his seat in Congress in 2016 again he ran against no Democrat candidate guaranteeing an easy win the position of DNI is a non-partisan position specifically it's very important that the person who occupies that position not be someone who's invested
Starting point is 01:12:31 in party politics because should that person in charge of all of the country's intelligence agencies be someone beholden to a political party you can very easily imagine the sort of things they could do to help their political party of choice no I mean can you imagine somebody abusing their power
Starting point is 01:12:47 like that? Never. Previous to Trump being elected no one who occupied this position came from a background as a member of Congress these were career diplomats or intelligence professionals but when Trump got in he appointed Dan Coates who had 16 years in a career as a Republican senator from Indiana
Starting point is 01:13:03 behind him as well as an 8 year career in the House of Representatives the politicization of this position is exceedingly dangerous and you know we're seeing that happen even if there were a presumption of impartiality to it our intelligence community is a dangerous thing to have exist
Starting point is 01:13:19 when you introduce partisan politics into it you have a recipe for real trouble and it's definitely the kind of thing you see in authoritarian states. Okay so what you're saying is that were we to have a partisan director of national intelligence somebody who can direct
Starting point is 01:13:35 intelligence agencies to do things and those things maybe are beholden to a hard right Republican lunatic who thinks that everybody's out to get him and wants to use intelligence services to further his own agenda
Starting point is 01:13:51 you think him appointing somebody who would do that is a bad idea? I'm saying it's a dangerous possibility it's also worth pointing out that John Ratcliffe has a 100% conservative score from Heritage Action and ranks as one of the most conservative members in all of Congress
Starting point is 01:14:07 he just yelled at Mueller isn't that why he's getting the job? Yeah and he was on the short list for Trump's Attorney General possibilities when sessions stepped down like he's he's in the team to give you some context Ted Cruz only has a 98% score Louis Gomert only has a 96%
Starting point is 01:14:23 score as does Steve King Ratcliffe is more conservative than those dudes I have literally zero faith that he would be able to separate his political leanings from the job of being DNI but I also think that's why Trump nominated him. Yeah obviously All that shit is disqualifying but I know that
Starting point is 01:14:39 Alex doesn't really care about any of that stuff and here's something though that he should care about In 2009 Ratcliffe became a partner at the law firm of Ashcroft Sutton Ratcliffe Who is that Ashcroft you ask? More than John Ashcroft
Starting point is 01:14:55 George W. Bush's Attorney General who Alex believed helped cover up 9-11 Ratcliffe is involved in the Bush administration as a U.S. Attorney then afterwards became partners in a law firm with one of Alex's huge bad guys endorsing this guy to lead
Starting point is 01:15:11 all of the country's spy shit is essentially Alex admitting he didn't really mean all the stuff he used to say this is seriously disqualifying stuff here all in the name of trying to defend the nomination he doesn't stand a chance of being approved by Congress there's already indications that the Republicans are thrilled with this
Starting point is 01:15:27 it's real embarrassing shit from Alex here you really hate to see this kind of shit head behavior even from someone you hate the idea that this guy who is a partner at a law firm with John Ashcroft Alex do you remember who you are? No he has no idea You hate John Ashcroft
Starting point is 01:15:43 Well he only covered up the Democratic part of 9-11 the conservatives Libertarians 9-11 was fine I have no idea I got nothing it's stupid
Starting point is 01:15:59 So another main piece of Alex's narratives here on the 29th are anti-Baltimore stuff which of course Alex proceeds to carry out as black people are not great Yeah
Starting point is 01:16:15 So in this one oh and then tripling it's a mess he goes pretty hard that stuff where he was making fun of Victor Blackwell was pretty clear it gets worse So in this clip we're about to listen to here
Starting point is 01:16:31 Alex is making the argument that all the media talks about is white people attacking black people but Alex has tons of videos of black people attacking white people which is a problem just from a thinking standpoint this is just bad
Starting point is 01:16:47 I see videos and compilations and underground articles and local news stories by police departments every day of international attention from the bullocks where gangs of racist black people target white people, old people
Starting point is 01:17:03 young people and beat them in some cases kill them and then there's no news coverage everywhere about record numbers of whites targeting minorities and there isn't any evidence of that they just lie like FBI director Ray did
Starting point is 01:17:19 before congress there's a lot of evidence of it there's mountains of evidence overwhelming evidence of it of white supremacist, white nationalist motivated crimes that's what's very important here when Alex is talking about seeing videos
Starting point is 01:17:35 of black people beating up white people that's anecdotal at best sure it's visceral there must be tons of black people beating up white people everywhere and it must be motivated by racism it doesn't stand as proof of anything
Starting point is 01:17:51 it's not good and this is what he's relying on I see tons of videos of black people he might as well be just redoing the knockout game shit how many fucking manifestos have we had to read recently last week
Starting point is 01:18:07 enough and none of them have come from black people no so Alex is still trying to defend Trump's comments about Baltimore and I don't know this is just stupid and the murder maps
Starting point is 01:18:23 show the thousands of murders a year in Baltimore only rivaled by Chicago this is classic shit the first thing we can tell here from Alex's coverage is that Alex has never seen the wire
Starting point is 01:18:39 which honestly doesn't surprise me he's also apparently never read homicide a year on the killing streets which also doesn't surprise me because it's a book obviously there's a very complicated situation and a lot of issues at play in terms of the city like Baltimore and like I said earlier
Starting point is 01:18:55 far be it from me to pretend that I actually can explain all of it to you or even advocate for what the right solution is I am not it's outside of my lane of expertise what I can tell you however is politely to explain
Starting point is 01:19:11 to Alex I'm going to give you a little bit of your own medicine where you gave a message to the president I'm going to do that for you there are not thousands of murders a year in Baltimore that is fucking insane that number might be right about a place like Caracas or a couple cities in Brazil
Starting point is 01:19:27 but no American city is anywhere near that level of murder in 2017 there were 341 murders in Baltimore Alex doesn't care about reality he cares about optics and the presentation and the narrative it sure looks like there were thousands of murders
Starting point is 01:19:43 in that lawless city so why not say there are Alex this is shitty work you need to do better because these are just numbers, they're statistics you can find these numbers and even just talking about total murders is a pointless statistic you got to talk about things in terms of rates
Starting point is 01:19:59 and when you do you find the numbers become less meaningful like Chicago in 2017 I believe was the ninth highest murder rate in the country all of it's still too high there's things that need to be done but
Starting point is 01:20:15 sure, Chicago had 300 more murders in 2017 than Baltimore but the murder rate was much lower it was almost half why is that? how do you integrate this into your conversation Alex? you can't of course there are more murders
Starting point is 01:20:31 when there are more people well certainly that just as a function of society yeah absolutely he's trying to tie this connection to it being blue states because Baltimore and Chicago
Starting point is 01:20:47 but if you look at it by murder rate there's tons of red states the number one is St. Louis that is the highest murder rate and that's a red state this conversation, blue state, red state doesn't fucking matter but you can create the optics that it does
Starting point is 01:21:03 if you use stats poorly and that's all Alex is doing because he doesn't care about violence he cares about using it to attack the people of the other party in a duplicitous and dishonest way and he absolutely does not care about improving
Starting point is 01:21:19 mainly because it still allows him to use that as a cudgel whenever he wants so all this is like Alex is clearly lying about a lot of issues that involve race and that's ugly and it sucks to see but you should know one thing
Starting point is 01:21:35 what's that? Bill Gates he's trying to brainwash everybody he's trying to brainwash people against whites sure and I'm gonna get into the incredible level of brainwashing that white people are inherently
Starting point is 01:21:51 evil are inherently bad by white academics and others who are being financed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation that's coming up, speaking of financed I'm being financed by you perfect the American people
Starting point is 01:22:07 and the main reason they sued me with the fake Sandy Hook lawsuits and all that they've now admitted was to try to get into our finances to discover who finances us and they're now besides themselves they're not funded by the Russians or the Mercers by you, the viewer, you the listener
Starting point is 01:22:23 buying products direct from us so first of all I'm excited to hear about this big story he's got about Bill and Melinda Gates brainwashing everyone against white people I'm thrilled to find out if there's any truth to that spoiler alert, there's not but also if this is true what Alex is saying
Starting point is 01:22:39 no no no, not that part, it's not true but if it's true that Alex has had all these people digging around in his finances trying to find out who funds him and it turns out it's just the American people Alex, why are you fighting so hard to like make sure that they don't get access to why are you
Starting point is 01:22:55 why are you creating a million legal hurdles Alex, if all of your money does come from like a really successful amazing supplement sale and books and water filtration business let's see those
Starting point is 01:23:11 numbers baby, I want to tip my hat to you, I want to congratulate you on a business well run why do you make all this so secretive to the point where in depositions people like your head of HR, your father other people who are involved in the business say, I have no idea what the fuck's going on
Starting point is 01:23:27 why, why does no one know what your business model is, why is everyone obfuscating and hiding all this shit if it weren't something shady please Alex, you fucking idiot well, you know, he has a he lives in a countless resistance
Starting point is 01:23:43 I believe is the, who was it Louis B? Yeah, yeah, yeah perhaps, so I've been excited to hear Alex chime in on something was that? This whole let's storm area 51 thing
Starting point is 01:23:59 he hasn't chimed in? I'm not sure if he has I missed some days because of the move but I hadn't heard him talk about it in the episodes I'd heard and I'm like he's got to have a take on that hasn't the date already passed? No, I think it's in September it's in September? I don't know it's a joke. No, no, no
Starting point is 01:24:15 it's going to happen. Haven't you read about December 12, 2012? I heard about that. Yeah. Leo Zagami told me about that they were storming area 51 so I knew that like this is something that Alex probably has got to talk about. First of all, he loves memes
Starting point is 01:24:33 so he should probably be thrilled at this because all it is is a joke meme. I didn't know what, like how he was going to land on it and to say that I was surprised to hear his take on it would be an understatement. I've been watching this area 51 situation
Starting point is 01:24:51 and my original thoughts three weeks ago are dead on and I'm sure you have the same thoughts but let me just explain something and I'm sure you all know this. Anyone that's had a Facebook page the last few years knows that you have to pay money basically
Starting point is 01:25:07 to have one now. Absolutely not. I've had a Facebook page for so long. I've had a Facebook page since it was thefacebook.com Yeah, yeah, yeah. You do not have to pay to use it. You have to pay to advertise on it. You always have had to. Alex, I That's what that's called a business model.
Starting point is 01:25:23 Right. That's how they make money. Everybody who has a Facebook page knows that you got to, you got to pay to have one. Unless you're just a private person they want to spy on. Spy. And then sell your data but if you try to start a Facebook for your dog grooming place they're going to say terms of service
Starting point is 01:25:39 now and I'll let you have it. I have a Facebook page that is about a podcast about how you're an idiot. Yeah. I have paid a couple times like five dollars to experiment with ads and found them to be not worth it. Pointless. Yeah. That's the only money I've ever put. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:55 Maybe ten dollars. Ten bucks. Yeah. Maybe. Well, terms of service Dan. They have now, I've never had Facebook come to me and be like, why are you running this? Terms of service. Right. If you do one for your church they're going to demand money now.
Starting point is 01:26:11 Google's not letting people promote Christianity. I mean this is just they're taking American flags off Nike tennis shoes. They're telling universities. The universities are saying don't say America or America. This is meant to be over the top.
Starting point is 01:26:29 I'm going to break that down next hour because what am I getting at? Good question. He is really struggling to figure out what what's my point about this Area 51 thing. I was going to say, hold on. So he said
Starting point is 01:26:45 he was right about three weeks ago as were most of you. About Area 51. About Area 51. And what you got to understand is that Facebook charges you to have a Facebook page. They're going to kick off all the Christians. Anyways. You can't have a dog grooming salon page.
Starting point is 01:27:01 Anyways, what does that have to do with Area 51? This individual is a cutout. Okay. And I want him on the show. He wants to come on here and defend himself. But I've seen him. We're going to play the clip next hour of him doing a local news interview. He doesn't. The individual that is organized. 1.6
Starting point is 01:27:25 million people to storm not actually. They skunk, works space plane base. What? An Air Force aircraft testing facility that's got nuclear weapons, chemical weapons stored at it. Toxic waste dumps.
Starting point is 01:27:41 Reportedly, it's where they haul decommissioned nuclear reactors out of submarines. It's a giant waste dump. And they're saying 1.6 million are going to storm it. And Facebook leaves it up and watches it.
Starting point is 01:27:59 What I'm trying to say is they won't let a Christian organize a pro-life vigil. They won't let a conservative member of Congress even reach their members on Facebook. But they'll let some trendy dude who wears video game
Starting point is 01:28:15 outfits sit up there and go, we're going to have 1.6 million people storm a military base. Facebook was set up by the left and the CIA. So is Google. They are 100% running this.
Starting point is 01:28:31 I would argue an alternative explanation and that is that conservative members of Congress are not very interesting and a joke meme event like this is pretty funny. And people have done a lot of marketing
Starting point is 01:28:47 for it on their own with little talk videos. It's caught on as a meme and that has led people to promote this joke event. And the CIA started it. And in the description
Starting point is 01:29:03 of it, let's see them aliens. They'll fuck out of here. That sounds like that. The alternative explanation that is absolutely the truth is this is a funny thing and people liked it. It's really funny. It's attractive to people and they're interested in a way that they're not in your bullshit bigoted content.
Starting point is 01:29:19 And the content of all these other whiny shadow banned Republicans fuck off. This is this is just appealing to people and you're not that's a bummer. I wouldn't. He should be jumping in on this, right?
Starting point is 01:29:35 Although then again, he literally can't because his listeners would actually try and storm area 51 wouldn't they if they if they thought that they had a 1.6 million strong army behind them. He does. Yeah. That's kind of gun owners. Yeah, that's
Starting point is 01:29:51 that's troublesome. I think that yeah, Alex would end up turning into like that Steven Kelly that storm the Getty. The Getty Museum and the demons underneath. Yeah, I don't know. Alex does bring this back up later and I would play it now
Starting point is 01:30:07 because then there would be thematic cohesion. You know, like he has another comment about area 51 like an hour later in the show. I was thinking about this like why don't I organize into like this is the topic he's talking about and hear all the things he says on it chronology. Well, it's because I
Starting point is 01:30:23 one of the things that I think is important is to like express the disjointedness and repetition of this show. That's a good yeah. He hits the same topics repeatedly throughout the course of the show, but he never gets really into them when he does and he jumps back and forth
Starting point is 01:30:39 from them in a way that's disorienting to your mind. Yeah. So when he brings back up the area 51 thing later you remember that he's brought it up. So there's some familiarity as if the topics already been covered. Right. It's intentional. It's a strategy of never
Starting point is 01:30:55 needing depth, but still creating the appearance of it through disorienting his audience with artificial familiarity I guess is what I would say. Artificial familiarity with the story. Right. Oh, I know that.
Starting point is 01:31:11 Presenting an angle without any depth and then because you're bringing it up later. Yeah, no, that makes sense. Yeah, that's a strategy that I wouldn't say that that's intentional. I think it perhaps it was
Starting point is 01:31:27 I think I think it is on some level, but I think it's also necessary because he couldn't do it the other way. He couldn't do a show where he actually got into the nuts and bolts of something. Of course, because if he did he would end up doing like a show like ours because he would end up accidentally
Starting point is 01:31:43 bumping everything he talks about. That would be wildly unpopular. Oh, shit, I'm wrong again. Guys, sorry about this. Sorry about this. This was just bullshit. That would be hilarious. This headline looked good. Fuck. If we believed
Starting point is 01:31:59 it'd be even funnier if we were ardent fans of Alex Jones and we were just constantly disappointed but we're like, I'm not going to give up on him yet. If I could do this all over I might have tried to write the show like that. Yeah, like as we're constantly
Starting point is 01:32:15 being disappointed. We might want to try one episode like that as a special episode. I don't think I have the performance chops to do it though. I don't think I have the commitment. So speaking of commitment, Alex is a committed racist and in this next clip he talks about how the Chinese
Starting point is 01:32:31 are racist. Okay. Except some of them. Now Mike down for this because he does give an example of one specific person who is not Mitch McConnell's wife. That's the chai comms who are the most homogeneous
Starting point is 01:32:47 meaning sure if you use that term genetically similar and the most racist people on earth. A lot of nice Chinese Americans my sister's South Korean adopted lover to death. Wait a second. Wait a second. No
Starting point is 01:33:03 no no no no no no no no no no. What? Yeah. Dude just say like Bing Bong or some other racist version of like oh they're all
Starting point is 01:33:19 the same out there. Yeah I mean it's it's pretty wild like the Chinese are the most racist people not all of them like my Korean yeah yeah yeah. What Chinese country are you from? Laos? Is that the one you're from? Jesus Christ. Yeah pretty
Starting point is 01:33:35 pretty overt. That is bananas. Yeah that really is I do love those moments when Alex is trying to like pretend that he's not racist and other people are and then he just embodies a fully twice as racist yeah fully fully fucked up position
Starting point is 01:33:51 my sister is South Korean. So some Chinese people aren't racist. Congratulations Alex your brain works great. Yeah. So now we get back to the the Gates's the Bill and Melinda Gates again this is the this is the
Starting point is 01:34:07 representation of the disjointedness he brought it up earlier and now he brings it up again They know how to sell us out and ship drugs into our cities. They know how to break up our families so we can be more easily managed because we're such uppity Americans instead of you are a real elite you would have promoted Americana that's so powerful
Starting point is 01:34:23 and then we would have ruled the planet through ideology and free market and you could have sat on top but you had needle dingaling syndrome I call it the chicken SH-T dimension and you're from it
Starting point is 01:34:39 Bill and Melinda Gates I haven't heard the chicken shit dimension before I mean I haven't heard it for a while yeah it's interesting to see that it's not just something he said once because it's lame as hell it's so it seems even weirder to imagine that he wasn't making it up that he
Starting point is 01:34:55 uses that they're from the chicken shit dimension what is that the needle dick dimension so we already heard earlier in the episode Alex saying that his big main gripe with the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation is their brainwashing people against whites earlier so this clip
Starting point is 01:35:11 exists within that context that's what makes them part of the chicken shit dimension oh that's what makes them part of the chicken shit dimension and they could have lured it over a free market world dominated by white people if they hadn't decided to brainwash people against
Starting point is 01:35:27 whites it does kind of seem like what he's saying is you guys fucked up for you well you know like you guys could have been really rich if you ran as opposed to really rich I also think that now after having that episode about the British
Starting point is 01:35:43 Israelism and Christian identity ideas it's tough to hear that sort of you know you could have had world dominion then not hear a little bit of that in there as well I think that's going to keep popping up so I also
Starting point is 01:35:59 you know he's talking about the globalists and the Bill and Melinda Gates they're destroying the family I'd like to read to you from the protocols of the Elders of Zion this is from protocol number 10 quote we shall destroy among the goyim the importance of the family and its educational value this is followed up
Starting point is 01:36:15 with quote in this way we shall create a blind mighty force which will never be in a position to move in any direction without the guidance of our agents set at its head by our as leaders of the mob the people will submit to this regime because it will know that upon these leaders will
Starting point is 01:36:31 depend its earnings gratifications and the receipt of all kinds of benefits so I mean what he's describing about the plan to destroy the family in order to make us less able to have our political will and dumb us down directly from the protocols of the Elders of Zion
Starting point is 01:36:47 it was really weird when I read those and protocol number 11 was and we'll send people to the chicken shit dimension right also it doesn't trace back to the protocols but this accusation the Jews are responsible for international drug trade I mean Alex isn't making that accusation but it is an accusation
Starting point is 01:37:03 that's been fairly popular in deeply anti-Semitic communities in 2012 the Iranian vice president Mohammed Riza Rahimi gave a speech where he said that Zionists ran the drug trade and quote the Islamic Republic of Iran will pay for anybody
Starting point is 01:37:19 who can research and find one single Zionist who is an addict they do not exist this is proof of their involvement in the drug trade a European diplomat told the Irish Times under the condition of anonymity quote this was definitely one of the worst speeches I've ever heard in my life
Starting point is 01:37:35 and even an Iranian Shia cleric was like no no no no no no no no good dude I can throw a rock at one of my friends and you'll find a Zionist addict so like you have this
Starting point is 01:37:51 like this idea of destroying the families for the specific purpose that Alex is talking about which is a direct parallel to the protocols and they're bringing drugs in which is you know that is also mirroring anti-Semitic propaganda that has existed over the years so I think it's just important to bring that up
Starting point is 01:38:07 whenever he's just being very clearly derivative well mirror so Alex in this next clip kind of thinks that he's already gotten to the news about Bill and Melinda Gates but again that's a function of the disjointed
Starting point is 01:38:23 nature of the show he himself kind of thinks he's covered it already but he hasn't and I said I'd get to have the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in a huge detailed report from Daily Caller News Foundation found that it's all being funded
Starting point is 01:38:39 by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation that's the main funding group of all this Black Lives Matter race riot kill the cops white people are inherently evil I was going to cover that but I guess I already did kind of didn't I you want to hear this professor
Starting point is 01:38:55 you want to hear all these so called authors being paid $12,000 a pop to go brainwash your kids tell how whites are inherently bad I'll get to that later I'll get to that next time I'll get to that later I thought you already kind of covered it
Starting point is 01:39:13 that is pretty funny that at the end of that he's like I'll get to that later he forgot exactly what he was going to say and he heard the music so he's like I don't have a handle on this shit I read a headline
Starting point is 01:39:29 so he's talking about this being like a $12,000 a pop example professors he said you want to hear this professor he mentioned the Daily Caller so I went and read this article that Alex is basing his narrative on in the Daily Caller and I don't know if I see the same thing as he sees here literally the only connection
Starting point is 01:39:45 any of this has to the Bill and Melinda Gates and their foundation is that they are listed as one of the clients that has hired the person that this hit piece article is about of course the article discusses Robin D'Angelo who holds a PhD in multicultural education and is
Starting point is 01:40:01 a well respected lecturer and author in the field she's the person who coined the term white fragility so naturally she's become a very specific target for the expression of exactly that I was going to say yeah come on man guys it's the worst literally the entire
Starting point is 01:40:17 thrust of this article here seems to be that she charges $12,000 for a speaking appearance and that somehow that invalidates her scholarship and all of her work because she's white I'm not sure Jesus what this article doesn't do is give any context to the rate of $12,000 for a speaking engagement
Starting point is 01:40:33 a daily caller article about the person who invented white fragility as a term didn't give context $12,000 for a speaking engagement is not really that high of a rate for a person particularly a leader in their field for that to be the rate they charge
Starting point is 01:40:49 a simple search of talent booking websites will tell you that for instance Ben Shapiro charges between $50,000 and $100,000 for a speech Jordan Peterson asks for $100,000 to $200,000 as does Sean Hannity James O'Keefe is right in the same ballpark as Misty Angelo with a price range
Starting point is 01:41:05 of $10,000 to $20,000 per speech Bill O'Reilly charges $100,000 to $200,000 John Ashcroft requires $50,000 to $100,000 to take a break from running a law firm with Alex's preferred choice for director of national intelligence Alex's buddy and noted pervert Ted Nugent charges $50,000 to $100,000
Starting point is 01:41:21 for a speech I think you get the point for people who are not in the fields of either being an in-demand lecturer or booking in-demand lecturers $12,000 for a booking might sound really high but ultimately it's not when you look at the larger picture of the industry
Starting point is 01:41:37 it's kind of on the lower end of an in-demand speaker this is a cheap trick that propagandists can use to paint someone who gives lectures about social justice or economic equality as a hypocrite and then they get to feel entitled to just ignore the entire message it's a pathetic strategy of self-defense
Starting point is 01:41:53 and honestly in this situation it goes a long way towards proving that Robin D'Angelo deserves that speaking rate because they're manifesting what she's talking about her big thing is the concept of white fragility and now you have the Daily Caller founded by noted
Starting point is 01:42:09 white nationalist Tucker Carlson crying bloody murder about her charging a reasonable rate for her services largely because they're afraid of the topic she's lecturing on literally this is white fragility on full display if it weren't then this is somehow about the revulsion they have at the
Starting point is 01:42:25 lackadence of speaking fees there's way better targets they could choose than D'Angelo also Tucker Carlson charges over $70,000 to give a speech so him the Daily Caller can go straight fuck themselves I don't understand why like did you did you get screwed over
Starting point is 01:42:41 in the Equifax breach no I checked and I'm not I wasn't affected I did I don't understand congratulations on that money you know what we're probably not gonna get it congratulations because they are gonna run out of money whatever the settlement is bullshit I don't understand why those hackers
Starting point is 01:42:57 aren't just going after these idiots like it's just steal their money Robin Hood style that's what I'm saying I I don't know I'm not gonna do it I'm not gonna double down on your that that position so there's nothing here that's really involved with
Starting point is 01:43:13 the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation except that they're listed as one of the people who have paid for her services paid for her speech that's as close as they get and it's one of a number of groups or organizations that are listed in the article
Starting point is 01:43:29 this isn't about the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation specifically being her patrons or whatever it's not it Alex is embellishing all of that shit of course because he wants to he hates the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation he thinks that they're brainwashing people against whites
Starting point is 01:43:45 and when he says white fragile when he says that when he says that brainwashing people against whites he's using this article as the justification for that narrative so it's all bullshit it's all just flimsy nonsense it's all white fragility so now we get back to area 51
Starting point is 01:44:01 the storming of area 51 just the beginning because it's prompting it's getting people ready it's engineering the public oh it's just a joke they're just organizing something else nothing will come of that but it will be storm the White House it will be overthrow the government
Starting point is 01:44:17 by the globalist because that's what Facebook has been set up to do suppress the good people empower the bad help Al Qaeda suppress the Christians suppress the conservatives unleash the leftist Antifa you really had a pause there before
Starting point is 01:44:33 conservatives wonder where his brain was heading so Alex his commercial time on the show has become a real sad place whereas before we had such fun things as where to hide
Starting point is 01:44:49 your guns and course diamond gusset gene songs and everybody was having a great time fun here's the commercial that he's playing now subscribestar.com forward slash Alex Jones that's where the next adventure against tyranny begins
Starting point is 01:45:05 that's where I'm going to be posting exclusive content content couldn't do a second take away it's he recorded this fucking low rent commercial for his brand patreon
Starting point is 01:45:21 he hit con on purpose this is a con I also check back in on his subscribe star we still have way more donors ah Jesus it's very sad I feel like we're gloating but at the same time I don't feel like I am
Starting point is 01:45:37 I don't care I want to it's insane that he only has 400 people who are donating to his subscribe star it's been months that it's been up and he has millions of listeners this is a very dangerous looking lack of engagement yeah I don't know
Starting point is 01:45:53 anyway we get now to John Bannister he shows up Joe Bannister's brother the LJB he wants to talk about the garlic festival and again he got nothing on this we have really no insight here is what I would describe as his expert analysis certainly these type of things take
Starting point is 01:46:09 you know hours if not days to hash out and I do understand that this morning they did serve a search warrant at the suspect's residence so I'm sure they will learn as the days go by what
Starting point is 01:46:25 this shooters motivations were fine I got nothing against that he's saying that you know they're looking into it they're investigating and we'll know whenever we know that's pretty responsible right that's not what Alex wants
Starting point is 01:46:41 no no Alex wanted him to say that it was Antifa right probably yeah I would assume so because that's kind of or a false flag Alex's narrative boils down to it's like they train everybody what you do if you want to kill yourself is go and commit suicide by cop by shooting up this place blah blah blah
Starting point is 01:46:57 right you know what we need is more guns at garlic festivals of course so that's what we get yep so that interview is real boring as are all the ones with Joe Bambister to must run in the family so we get a Alex Alex then starts rambling about
Starting point is 01:47:13 like the globalists need to bring in the global government now oh for a specific reason and I think I don't think I agree with this and I mean I think it's just wrong because the globalists are the remnants of the robber barons and the royalty and all the corrupt
Starting point is 01:47:29 groups that are out there they're planning something even bigger to bring in planetary control because all these advanced technologies are coming forward now and they want control of those because there's about to be breakaway technologies that have already been discovered where we'll be multi-planetary so fast we'll be
Starting point is 01:47:47 interstellar so fast we'll be intergalactic we'll be interdimensional so fast it'll make your head spin you think fire was an invention you think fire was an invention I do think fire was an invention I love
Starting point is 01:48:03 the shifting goalposts of why the globalists are doing what they're doing it's changed so much over the course of his career and I love that now in the present day his excuse is they need to make a one-world government because we're about to go to space and they want
Starting point is 01:48:19 to be in control of Mars or whatever it's just like I don't understand I don't know what are you missing I'm missing the jump from when it used to be about like creating just a dictatorship and making a prison plan I'm missing the time when it was a financially motivated thing
Starting point is 01:48:35 I'm missing that jump I don't know I think my favorite part of all the globalists' plans is that all of them according to Alex are incredibly long-term and yet they change they change so frequently on a dime
Starting point is 01:48:51 can I also say that I don't know I have mixed feelings generally about the idea of world government I especially think that the wrong people administering it would be the worst literal worst but I do think that some sort of collaboration
Starting point is 01:49:07 globally is probably required it's impossible but also if we were to go into space and start colonizing parts of space we would need a one-world government because the alternative is what are we going to have space wars between Russia and China
Starting point is 01:49:23 like other countries are going to be able to make rockets and shit what are you going to do are we going to go to war to keep them from going to space are we going to have a war in space literally China and Russia are gearing up for a space war right I mean it's stupid
Starting point is 01:49:39 the idea that we would be able to leave the planet and still have tensions between us just based on where on this fucking earth we came from is absurd the idea that all the progress you could make
Starting point is 01:49:55 in making a Mars colony let's say like that seriously amazing advance in like if that's possible yeah right which it is or most likely it could all be jeopardized by China coming in with space rockets
Starting point is 01:50:11 why would we ever want to make it to that next level while there's still the possibility that we're going to fight with each other and ruin all of it it's silly I mean to replay the colonization wars of Europe from the 1600s in space
Starting point is 01:50:27 those would be I mean it wouldn't even be catastrophic it would destroy humanity right you know like of course okay so we destroy new America on Jupiter's moon maybe what we should have done instead is just destroy America
Starting point is 01:50:43 on earth right you know it's easier it's easier right why would we send rockets all the way out there it seems like an incredibly dystopian possibility the idea of branching out and colonizing space without absolute
Starting point is 01:50:59 collaboration between countries it just seems like it seems like childish shit whenever you consider the stars although I've seen G Gundam and in that situation what happens is every country colonizes
Starting point is 01:51:15 different places in space and it creates very racist robots to fight on earth so yeah interesting series fair enough so this is the point of the episode where Alex gets into the Marion Williamson video and he plays it
Starting point is 01:51:31 and he's just sort of like making fun of her but not interrupting it because he wants it to be presented so she's leading these people and apologizing for the horrors of slavery in our country's history Alex refuses to engage with the ideas that the lingering
Starting point is 01:51:47 effects economically sociologically politically that have rippled down from the times of slavery do still impact people today he doesn't really want to talk about that he wants to talk about how he shouldn't feel guilty about slavery he didn't do it
Starting point is 01:52:03 no one did it almost nobody did it now much like him saying that the Chinese are racist except for his Korean sister Alex starts off on this clip being like I refuse to feel guilty about slavery and then says something deeply racist
Starting point is 01:52:19 Margarine Williamson Mrs. Moonbeam leads white people in collective apology remember this a few weeks ago to African Americans even though if your great grandfather was an axe murderer that's not your fault you're an independent person but
Starting point is 01:52:35 only 2% of people here until 1867 had slaves that was in the south most people who are European ancestors came here after it doesn't matter because even if your ancestors did have slaves it's not your fault
Starting point is 01:52:53 but see that's total tyranny is that what it is that's slavery saying because you're a certain color because your ancestors are this is not going to happen to you it's amazing it's collective guilt what they did in Zimbabwe in Rhodesia
Starting point is 01:53:11 where they rounded up all the whites and killed them this is so evil because they wow oh boy Alex is your example is Rhodesia bro that's where you're going yep that'll do it
Starting point is 01:53:27 your example is Rhodesia boo yep it's insane to me that he's trying to argue against him needing to feel guilty about slavery and immediately where his mind
Starting point is 01:53:43 goes is a repressive white supremacist apartheid government that was the remnant of a brutal colonial system that was put in place in modern days in Zimbabwe that is so fucked up to me that's the example he goes to
Starting point is 01:53:59 and he doesn't think like that wasn't a good example that was a that was so the headliner last week while I was at Zany's we had this really stupid conversation
Starting point is 01:54:15 on his part where he was trying to say that first of all I'd like to say that we had a stupid conversation on his part is a fuck it there's a wild way to phrase it here's what ended it he said
Starting point is 01:54:31 now I think whites are afraid mainly because if minorities, because we're going to have whites are going to be the minorities soon and they're going to do to whites what we did to them
Starting point is 01:54:47 and I was like no no if you believe that they are fucked up but it's almost admirable in some way that he's able to articulate it they did admit that that's what
Starting point is 01:55:03 clearly has some of those thoughts in his head but he refuses to articulate it that way which kind of makes it more difficult to deal with his bullshit at least with someone like that guy you'd hope that there was a possibility of a dialogue because he's willing to express it
Starting point is 01:55:19 I think there is but I don't want to do it right now I'm not going to do this in the green room I don't have the time so Alex is a little bit more racist in this clip and also he points out that some churches are putting out the donation tray
Starting point is 01:55:35 but they're not taking that money and giving it to God they're giving it to somebody else as they know America has this Christian moral loving love your brother they exploit it the left does and so now all the Methodist church all the big churches are
Starting point is 01:55:51 first Methodist church here in Austin, Texas takes up collection plates for Bill and Melinda Gates I have family that used to go there I've sat there and heard a family finally quit going there I had some family went there I mean you talk about satanic
Starting point is 01:56:07 when we come back I'm going to show you the Bill and Melinda Gates funding what they're teaching white devils coming and teaching racism but because whites rejected racism they teach it to black people now and brown people stay with us on Alex Jones wow
Starting point is 01:56:23 that's wild prosperity gospel preachers are usually on the left right? I don't know it's hard to say I'm sure none of them are in Trump's good graces I know one of them did do the prayer at his inauguration
Starting point is 01:56:39 yeah she did didn't she and she's his national spiritual advisor whatever it is and also married to a guy in Journey which is a fun fact it's like a pop up video there's a writing credit don't stop believing
Starting point is 01:56:55 I don't know I can't imagine a church being like alright so we're going to take donations for one of the richest people in the world it doesn't seem I don't know
Starting point is 01:57:11 anyway in this next quote we find out also when he's saying what they're teaching all this stuff based on that Daily Caller article there's nothing more to it than that it was just that and then Alex spins it out Bill Gates is doing some real fucked up stuff
Starting point is 01:57:27 the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is promoting white genocide it's promoting that white people are inherently bad and it's funding white academics to go out and teach that the west is
Starting point is 01:57:45 inherently evil the west is inherently evil you're saying that they're trying to get white genocide and say that white people are evil wait are you trying to say that the west and the white are it's almost like he has no distinction between them
Starting point is 01:58:01 they seem to be meaning the same thing it seems like white identity is western culture to him stop trying to pretend it's not you dumb fuck can't just hide behind terms you use interchangeably
Starting point is 01:58:17 and assume that people aren't going to notice and call you out on it every single time it's exactly the same thing as with the preacher David J. Smith when he talks about the children of Esau being Jews when Alex talks about western civilization
Starting point is 01:58:33 western culture he's talking about whiteness is what he's doing anyway in this next clip he just makes up this professor is mainly funded by the Gates Foundation the particular lady profile
Starting point is 01:58:49 the Daily Caller News Foundation is paid $12,000 a day so that already is a misrepresentation that is already a misrepresentation because it implies that she's getting paid every day as opposed to maybe one or two engagements a year
Starting point is 01:59:05 it's such bullshit what a dick and she's a white lady she's got the customary weird vampire chicken neck going on there it is she goes around and teaches white people they're bad and who's her main funder
Starting point is 01:59:23 Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation he doesn't have anything to back that up he is just asserting it based on nothing and pointing to this article that doesn't prove that it's bullshit man he is just saying whatever he wants it's crazy like when you really get down to it the things that he bases his rhetoric
Starting point is 01:59:39 and his narratives on it's so clear that nothing can be trusted anything could just be made up he reports made up shit with the same confidence that he does reading a headline
Starting point is 01:59:55 it really does seem like she has grounds for a libel lawsuit I don't think there's any way that this can't be construed as deliberately lying about somebody with malice I think you could
Starting point is 02:00:11 I think she probably could I also think it probably isn't worth her time but yeah definitely I think what he's doing is slander cause it's not written down I'll make a transcript of this I apologize for mistaking the language
Starting point is 02:00:27 so earlier Alex pointed out that white people have rejected racism really don't think that's true no it's not but it's interesting to see how he conceives of how white people got rid of
Starting point is 02:00:43 this racism well it was because the South Korean Chinese person told him that could be it cause it's white people that got rid of tribalism Christianity and with the first we can have a multicultural system based on Jesus Christ and the blessings
Starting point is 02:00:59 that come from it the free market and I don't care if you're black, Hispanic, Asian whoever you are if you accept the teachings of Christ and you accept free market ideas it works everybody is wealthy we come together it's God's plan it really is
Starting point is 02:01:15 so what we seem to be looking at now is not only like theocratic government ideas but also theocratic economy ideas which are really weird this is bananas so Alex and his cohorts love to freely just pick and choose from the new and old
Starting point is 02:01:31 testaments in order to make their cases for what Christianity should be and what they ascribe to Jesus so I feel like I should be able to play that game every now and again too so I'm gonna have fun as long as Alex wants a biblical basis for the economy I feel like we should maybe go all the way and reintroduce the law of jubilee
Starting point is 02:01:47 as laid out in Leviticus 25 she shoots fireworks out of her different jubilee the law of jubilee lays out that every 50 years property even property that's been bought and sold in the intervening years is to revert back to the original owner and that if you bought
Starting point is 02:02:03 some land you were living on you're to return to your family's original property it's laid out that if you sell someone land closer to the year of jubilee you have to charge less for it since that person is gonna have less time on this land that's a fun wacky economic system I like that
Starting point is 02:02:19 this is a law the law of jubilee it exists because there is no private property rights for humans as is explicitly expressed quote this is God speaking the hold on let me let me prepare myself for that
Starting point is 02:02:35 the land must not be sold permanently because the land is mine and you reside in my land as foreigners and strangers if you buy a house you have to give that house back in the year of jubilee except in cases where that house is in a walled city if the city has walls you get to keep the house
Starting point is 02:02:51 but if there aren't walls on that city you gotta give the house back I love a good old throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing what economic system sticks it's a weird set of rules but it definitely isn't free market no so Alex gotta deal with that also if you want to go New Testament
Starting point is 02:03:07 in Jesus's actual words in Matthew 6 19 through 21 he says quote do not store up for yourself treasures on earth where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal but store up for yourself treasures in heaven where moth and rust do not destroy and where thieves do not break in
Starting point is 02:03:23 for where your treasure is there your heart will be also or there's that whole passage in Luke 6 where Jesus tells people to lend other people money with no expectation of being repaid no no no no no no no youseri is fine to be merciful just as your father is merciful
Starting point is 02:03:39 there's a lot of folks who try to make the argument that Jesus would have been on their side and supported their ideology if he were around today and I'm equally suspicious of all of them there's so much in the Bible that you can really pick who's a lot to make a whole lot of seemingly contradictory arguments that being said Jesus was
Starting point is 02:03:55 into free market capitalism is maybe one of the bigger stretches you could make yeah I can't imagine anybody defending if you're a biblical scholar and you think Jesus was into the free market you're actually a liar here's our way around that how do we do that
Starting point is 02:04:11 Alex is not a biblical scholar there we go so in this next clip Alex says that this Robin D'Angelo the professor who's given these speeches is she's a witch I'm not going to play all of what this witch has to say but when we come back
Starting point is 02:04:27 I can show you hours of just the latest racial attacks on whites being killed being beaten by hordes by packs of racist black people packs hordes we have the exact we have the exact issue
Starting point is 02:04:43 that is the conversation Alex refuses to have he embodies the exact same thing that people like Victor Blackwell were discussing in that CNN clip that's why he cuts that part out because he doesn't want to open that box he's guilty of the exact same thing that Victor Blackwell very sensibly
Starting point is 02:04:59 was discussing and it demonstrates a subtle and actual racism hordes packs of black people racist blacks attacking whites yeah
Starting point is 02:05:15 so he tries to play this clip of Robin D'Angelo that he has found and it's interesting so we have two examples from earlier we have the Marianne Williams clip that he allows to play because he wants it to stand as a
Starting point is 02:05:31 thing that's silly and zany and nonsensical he has the clip of Victor Blackwell which he has to interrupt constantly in mock so everyone knows this is stupid another clip and it's to the point where Alex can't allow it to play
Starting point is 02:05:47 to be white is to see oneself outside of race to see oneself as a unique special individual exempt from the forces of socialization outrageous lies just insane BS I think so
Starting point is 02:06:09 I'll never forget a moment of standing beside a black woman and a white woman said to him I don't see color he said well then how are you going to see racism because I am black I do think you know that and I have a different experience than you do
Starting point is 02:06:25 and you're not going to be able to understand that and you're not going to be able to support the parts of that experience that are really painful and problematic if you refuse to acknowledge my reality I don't see color you can't look at her this is a serpent
Starting point is 02:06:41 you have Christians and good people that say I just want to be nice I want to get along I want to hire folks off of their background what they've done not off of color they are oh that's racism see they're fighting what the globalist can't stand
Starting point is 02:06:57 the abolitionist Christian movement so Alex has to cut that off because he started to realize as the video is playing this is making a completely different argument than I have been saying she makes she's not at all saying the white people are evil she's very clearly
Starting point is 02:07:13 and cogently laying out her point about the differing experiences of people of different ethnic and racial backgrounds in a way that can be communicated to his listeners and Alex can't rebut that no absolutely not
Starting point is 02:07:29 he can't rebut that without just being like the accent there isn't really a good rebuttal that he's capable of that doesn't drift into like just outright racism and that's why he has to shut that off he has to shut that off
Starting point is 02:07:45 and shift the conversation being about affirmative action or something there's no good rebuttal there's only the racist rebuttal which is not a good one so he gathers himself and he realizes because he's listened to part of this club
Starting point is 02:08:01 positive he didn't listen to before the show based on his reaction and he realizes that what it's about is acknowledging the differing experiences that people in this country have based on race and he gathers himself and he finds his bearings and
Starting point is 02:08:17 he's able to just be like well that is racist acknowledging that there's different experiences itself is racist amazing oh a woman says I don't want to see your color I just want to you know no you've got to see my color that's how we fight racism
Starting point is 02:08:33 no that's how you create it and then once it is about color like crips and bloods well now you're in the gang now I've got to be that because I'm white walking down the street let's go out to break with some of that and you're just trying to go in a hotel
Starting point is 02:08:49 and 20-something black people come up and beat you and break your eyes and knock your eyeball out because you're white and spit on you it happens all the time it's okay though see because see they learn to see the race and they talk that white devil
Starting point is 02:09:05 they talk that white devil good too bad that you chill them I believe that they turned that music up pretty loud it's louder than it is in other out to break things because Alex is almost salivating
Starting point is 02:09:21 about the black people attacking white people it's like oh yeah this is great this is going to get my audience real juiced up they're going to love this it's really fucked up it's uh how
Starting point is 02:09:37 how do you hate so much it's pretty crazy so much hate that you can't even listen to somebody who you immediately know Alex immediately knew that what she was saying made sense but it's also not what he was saying
Starting point is 02:09:53 he knew it immediately I think it still took him like 30 seconds okay well fair enough that's immediate for him though as immediately as he could but it made so much sense to him that he was so terrified of it
Starting point is 02:10:09 I don't know I don't understand the idea of approaching life without some desire to be challenged a little bit I listen to Alex every day he's like a liar and stuff like that but that doesn't mean everything he says is a lie
Starting point is 02:10:25 I'm ready for him to make sense I know that he generally doesn't but I don't listen to him in the same way he listens to people who disagree with him I don't listen to him like ah fuck this noise turn it off this guy
Starting point is 02:10:41 no it's almost like the highlight of your day is when he makes sense I wish he did more yeah that's for sure well if he did more than we would be covering a very different show now wouldn't we? it is interesting to me
Starting point is 02:10:57 I don't know if I have many examples of him making sense recently but I don't think it's impossible and I'm ready every time I dig into one of his stories it's with the opportunity to learn more and he always disappoints me
Starting point is 02:11:13 but I still persevere and it involves him spiraling out of control because he is getting really frustrated about these race issues he's pretty pissed off
Starting point is 02:11:29 that he's been building up this narrative about Robin D'Angelo throughout the entire episode he's played this clip and it didn't say what he wanted it to say and so he's getting more racist in the last segment of the episode
Starting point is 02:11:45 he's really, he's pausing a lot there's a lot of slowed down speech and it's really, it's pretty fucked up stuff and they're hyping up and winding the minorities up who are the majority worldwide into a fiendish group
Starting point is 02:12:01 of zombies hell bent on conquering the west and everyone's gonna cheer when the bioweapons are released in the future and two billion, three billion four billion people
Starting point is 02:12:17 die race specific bioweapons HIV was only a test it's killed hundreds of millions of Africans and even though the Africans are being wound up into an army to come over here
Starting point is 02:12:33 and slit my throat you can show the video of the mother and child being thrown crossing the tracks because they were white and Berlin on the left says it's good, they're white but you see it's a setup they send an army to kill you and then they're gonna kill that army
Starting point is 02:12:49 so that is insanely fucked up as far as I can tell Alex is completely making up huge elements of the story about that train situation it's a story about a woman and her child who were pushed in front of a train as Alex is saying in Berlin
Starting point is 02:13:05 the child died, he talks about it a lot on this episode, it comes up a bunch the story is real in as much as it did happen it's a horrible tragedy but all the extra details he's adding aren't supported by any actual reporting on the story also it wasn't in Berlin, it was in Frankfurt
Starting point is 02:13:21 according to articles about the event from the Independent, the Guardian, BBC as well as some German outlets and even some less reputable sources the perpetrator was in police custody but refused to speak with authorities and no motive had been established for his attack whatever the reality
Starting point is 02:13:37 of this ends up being it's completely baseless for Alex to report that he was racially motivated that the man pushed them onto the tracks because they were white he has nothing to back that up no evidence, no source for it, no justification for his claim other than the fact that the media reported that the man was from Eritrea
Starting point is 02:13:53 that is all Alex needs to claim concretely, confidently and absolutely that this was an out of control minority killing white people because they were white I can't be clearer about this with the end result of the German investigation into this cases, it may very well
Starting point is 02:14:09 end up being that this individual did attack this woman because he hated white people that could be, that could end up being true and even if it is, what Alex is doing is completely racist he feels like this is a racially motivated attack and that's enough for him to report it as if it is and then extrapolate that
Starting point is 02:14:25 into being proof that all whites are under attack and Africans are being wound up as an army to attack western civilization which we know is code for white people someone who wasn't invested in promoting racism and white identity would not do this they would rely on actual facts to guide their reporting as opposed to
Starting point is 02:14:41 well, to put it simply, white fragility I've never heard Alex ever report on any of the many instances of white people pushing non-white people onto train tracks from the past few years there are a number of them he could have Alex chooses his stories and tailors his narratives
Starting point is 02:14:57 with an explicit purpose in mind and that is to make his white audience fade of people unlike him and to make them confident that they're always in the right even if it takes lying or just making shit up to craft that narrative there's no other way for me to put this really
Starting point is 02:15:13 Alex Jones' show in the present day is racist trash there is trending towards increasingly violent imagery and incitement he has nowhere left to go but to get more extreme and I do not think that bodes well for the future his show sucks this is a bad show
Starting point is 02:15:29 it is weird to watch him try and create a what aboutism in real time like what he's doing here is well, like we discussed at the very beginning as far as giving people talking points if somebody is like
Starting point is 02:15:45 if somebody goes to one of his viewers or one of his listeners and says what about all of the white supremacist terrorism that you're not acknowledging and ignoring they'll be like well what about the a woman pushing a bus a train man pushed a woman into a train
Starting point is 02:16:01 so there you go it's non-racial we don't have to talk about all that shit it's fucking bullshit it's a strategy to never have to deal with the issues just to distract and be like I'm scatting a lot but
Starting point is 02:16:17 this show sucks it really does suck it's scary the potential that it has in terms of people's reaction to it because you have Alex saying things in that last clip like they're winding up the Africans
Starting point is 02:16:33 to be an army against the west which again like we know he's talking about white people saying that Africans are being an army they're gonna come slit his throat his personal throat I just don't think that you can talk like that without having a reasonable expectation that some of your audience
Starting point is 02:16:49 is not going to deal with that subtly your audience might think that hey I should view all people of African heritage as suspect it's enforcing and encouraging racism
Starting point is 02:17:05 to a violent degree or a potentially violent degree and I don't know I feel like as we go through this when we do modern day episodes I certainly don't know what the law is so I don't like to comment on that too much but I think what the importance of this
Starting point is 02:17:21 is is to demonstrate like this is what he is putting out into the world if things go bad just know he's doing this, he's a part of it that's the only thing I think I don't know
Starting point is 02:17:37 that's the only point I can see in talking about this and I guess I get to learn about California students who almost lost their financial aid yeah that is interesting that is very interesting that's one of the things that I thought about with that conversation
Starting point is 02:17:53 of like the comic who was saying white people are afraid that what they minorities will do to them what white people did to minorities and it is
Starting point is 02:18:09 so kind of obvious that that is what Alex is afraid of to a certain extent he knows he kind of has it coming it's that he has it coming and so his real anger comes from we need to defeat them otherwise we are going to get fucked
Starting point is 02:18:25 he knows that he deserves guilt and doesn't want to feel guilt and he sublimates that into hate and it's unfortunate it's unfortunate because it completely blocks off an entire path it blocks off an entire path of thinking
Starting point is 02:18:41 that the present and the future don't have to mirror the past there's a positive world we can all work towards that doesn't involve tribalism and doesn't involve curing tribalism with appeals
Starting point is 02:18:57 to Jesus and the free market that Jesus loves so much there's a possible better way forward and Alex has just closed off to it and it's just so self-destructive that kind of thought because there's no way to, it has to make you so fucking miserable all the time
Starting point is 02:19:13 and you don't even know you can't even articulate why because what you think is making you miserable you can articulate why you can articulate why but you can only do it privately you can't do it on the radio you can do it on the radio so long as you ascribe it to
Starting point is 02:19:29 the people that you're against you say that they're the ones who are doing all that stuff and you can't do it if you ascribe it to yourself you can't expect to continue to make an income no absolutely not yeah so I don't know I think his show sucks
Starting point is 02:19:45 and you know that is what it is but we'll be back on Friday with another adventure into Alex Jones's stupid stupid world but until then we have a website we do have a website Dan it is knowledgefight.com you bet it is we also are on Twitter
Starting point is 02:20:01 we are on Twitter at knowledge underscore fight and at go to bet Jordan we're also on Facebook we're on Facebook and you if you wanted to share your best or share it with somebody what you should do is download it onto your phone leave your phone unlocked
Starting point is 02:20:17 and in a very public place and have it always playing and people will eventually find it I think that's the best strategy forests put them out there we're big in the deer community oh yeah deer love us
Starting point is 02:20:33 they don't like us at all tractor people are not our people that's not true no you're mistaking me I meant the tractor people oh the people who are chimeras the half tractor yes they are not
Starting point is 02:20:49 they're not fans of us but that's because they don't think we're far left enough they are they are far gone yeah it's strange even they hate Kerry Cassidy it's wild so until we come back for another episode
Starting point is 02:21:05 I should tell you that Robin D'Angelo the professor who charges $12,000 for a lecture good honor she has never killed anybody but one guy who technically probably has is Alex Jones
Starting point is 02:21:19 Andy and Chanzos you're on the air thanks for holding hello Alex I'm a first time caller I'm a huge fan I love your work I love you
