You started 29 00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:36.879 a substack, didn't you. 30 00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.480 Yeah. I haven't launched anything on it. Yeah that right now. 31 00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.200 I just wanted to just get it set up initially. 32 00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:45.439 Oh. 33 00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:47.480 I'll probably start adding to it the next few weeks. 34 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:52.480 But uh yeah, yeah, the uh the substack algorithm is 35 00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:55.480 is narrowly tailored. Because I think it showed me that 36 00:01:55.599 --> 00:01:58.640 like sixty seconds after you posted it. I'm like, yeah, 37 00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:01.359 thank you, substack. This is what I care about. Yeah, 38 00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:04.760 I love it. Was surprised it seems to just be 39 00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:08.879 rage baiting me. Uh, which incidentally is how we ended 40 00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:14.199 up with the uh with the topic of this stream. Uh, Lee, 41 00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:16.879 I only bring you on to discuss the most aeradite, 42 00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:25.159 uh intelligent subjects, right uh gun autism, uh, the Italians 43 00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:27.840 and uh you know, I think you and I both 44 00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:31.560 have an appreciation for just uh you know, the best, 45 00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:34.080 our best and brightest minds, right you know, twenty per 46 00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:37.680 century progressives. Uh. I've got a question because I always 47 00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.400 see you interacting with these people. Are where do you 48 00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:43.240 find them? Because I follow like probably four hundred of 49 00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:44.280 these accounts on Twitter. 50 00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:50.120 Yeah, I don't know. They just kind of, uh, come upon, uh, 51 00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:55.439 come upon my my Twitter feed. From time to time, 52 00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:01.759 I will seek out something that is juicy enough to 53 00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:04.439 like quote tweet or something like that. That's probably what 54 00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:09.120 does it. It's a I'm sure it's a Nikita Boer 55 00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:14.599 x AI algorithm thing that's just designed to team me up, 56 00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:17.960 you know, to quote tweet progressive. 57 00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:22.159 Speaking of that, did you do the the analytics before 58 00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.159 they shut down Rock where it would tell you all 59 00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:25.960 of your internal tags on. 60 00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:32.879 X Yeah, you know, it was all like this guy 61 00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:38.800 like ninety percent, like real, real weather machine stuff, and 62 00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:44.120 you know, I don't know. I I saw people kind 63 00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:48.199 of spurging out about it's not real, like you're an idiot, 64 00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:52.680 you know, and it's like, well, you know, I don't know. 65 00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:55.960 I understand that there are people who cannot parse data. 66 00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:02.319 Generically in the age of AI, it becomes you know, 67 00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:07.479 difficult for like Facebook boomers to not you know, for 68 00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.240 them to realize that like this video of a seven 69 00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:13.280 hundred pound guy like rescuing a puppy while skydiving or 70 00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:19.120 something is AI. You know, the entire Twitter experience at 71 00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:24.360 this point is owned by x AI, and like the 72 00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:28.079 algorithm and the analytics and all that type of stuff 73 00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:33.680 is very heavily involved with the use of grock and 74 00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:36.560 so well, obviously it just kind of looks like a 75 00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:44.040 random and generic Jason output. It's probably like directionally true 76 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:48.319 that some of the some of the algorithm is running 77 00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:53.319 off of you know, old school like like earlier AI 78 00:04:54.639 --> 00:05:00.560 ADL you know style guardrails, and so even if it's 79 00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:05.360 not specifically true, I do think it's probably directionally true 80 00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:08.639 that many of us are still kind of rate limited 81 00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:09.120 by the AI. 82 00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:13.240 Yeah, well it was. It was interesting as well to 83 00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:17.360 see the map of both the tags, right, like what 84 00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:22.040 you were associated with, yeah, but also what your what 85 00:05:22.079 --> 00:05:25.120 your crimes were, right, So in my case it's all association. 86 00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:28.120 You know, It's like I don't actually say anything, so 87 00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:30.519 there's nothing to be to be garnered there. But you 88 00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:32.519 look at that and you're like, all right, okay, so 89 00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:35.680 that's the that's the standard against which you're judged. But anyway, 90 00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:38.600 we're not just here to complain about social media. We're 91 00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:41.800 here to read an article actually that I believe my 92 00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.000 wife found first. And this this is a very funny article. 93 00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:50.279 It's easy to forget that Stubzac despite being a free 94 00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:53.839 speech site, is primarily made up of the most irritating 95 00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:57.480 progressives in the world. You just never see them, and 96 00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:00.399 so I don't really know anything about this guy John 97 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.079 Fugel Sang, although he seems to be writing quite a 98 00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:07.399 lot about the separation of Church and state. Right, he 99 00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:11.360 wrote this book, the Separation of Church and Hate, which 100 00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:17.279 is you know, brother, come on, yeah. So he starts 101 00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.040 off with two quotes, you know, one one from the 102 00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:25.439 Gospels and another one from George Washington. Late you could 103 00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:29.680 could you read the attribution to George Washington. 104 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:33.680 That's good, George Washington, Kamma, who owned people? 105 00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:41.199 But I mean, sure, dude, whatever. The big picture on 106 00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:44.040 this is that you already know what this guy's saying, right. 107 00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:47.879 He's going after you know, vaguely defined you know, Christian nationalists, 108 00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:51.199 whatever that means, throwing in things that don't necessarily make sense. 109 00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:53.120 It's just kind of the general pastiche of the right. 110 00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:56.560 But it is pretty funny, right, It's like read at 111 00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:00.279 Atheism in the Ear of Our Lord twenty twenty six. Addition, 112 00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:03.040 we're staying on brand because a large portion of this 113 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:07.360 is airing his family's dirty laundry perfect where we get 114 00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:11.680 into both Catholic racial politics, which I don't tend to understand, 115 00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:18.839 and also making fun of h Italian New Yorkers, which 116 00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:20.639 you know is pretty funny. 117 00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:22.920 Yeah, that's I'm always down for that. 118 00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:29.519 Yeah. By the way, just to just to tease it, man, 119 00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:37.079 it's any directions you're you're probably not expecting, right, so 120 00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:39.560 he starts off. I like to begin and end these 121 00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:42.199 comments on Christian prejudice by telling you a bit about 122 00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.920 my paternal grandfather. Grandfather was a guy named Leonard sometimes 123 00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:48.720 went by Lenny, a real old school Brooklyn guy with 124 00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:52.000 an accent you know you hear nowadays only in old movies. 125 00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:57.079 He said things like cockroach and pronounced Broadway broad Way. 126 00:07:58.040 --> 00:07:59.879 He was a house painter who painted the homes of 127 00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:03.959 several famous people. Later, as my grandmother's health declined, my 128 00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:06.680 grandparents moved in near to US Long Island and became 129 00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:10.240 regular parts of our lives. Leonard was kind and warm, 130 00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:13.120 and he dutally cared for my grandmother. He was also 131 00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:16.959 a prejudiced, working class white guy from Brooklyn and bigoted 132 00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:19.879 against many type of people. It was from him that 133 00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:23.519 I learned uh and I'll let you read this lee 134 00:08:23.959 --> 00:08:26.199 as a resident met that's good. 135 00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:31.759 There's three things here. The Blacks cause all the crime. 136 00:08:32.879 --> 00:08:37.200 They quoting the article here, of course, did Jews kill 137 00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:44.720 Jesus Christ? And depotter Rickens take all the jobs. 138 00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:47.919 So we're starting off here through three. 139 00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:55.679 Like okay, before we go any further at best, we're 140 00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:56.960 looking at two out of three here. 141 00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:05.279 Yeah, like one of these is I mean, that's pretty insutable. 142 00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:08.840 It's cut off to you wish one, but like we're ready. 143 00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:12.919 We ran the data on this, you know, it wasn't 144 00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:22.720 the Romans idea. So yeah, he keeps going on. Uh boy, 145 00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:27.360 just kind of thither. But he was also a devout 146 00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:30.519 Catholic who never missed Mass. But even at my church, 147 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:34.200 my grandfather found ways to discriminate. He would receive communion 148 00:09:34.240 --> 00:09:37.639 wafers only from an actual priest and staunchly refused to 149 00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:41.000 take bread and wine from any plain clothes eucharistic ministers, 150 00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:44.679 including my dad if he were in line for communion, 151 00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:47.519 and Grandpa would see a civilian not a priest, which, 152 00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:50.279 by the way, the phrasing on that's very odd. Dispensing 153 00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:53.039 the host of his line, he'd abruptly switch lines to 154 00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:56.039 make sure he received from the real deal. I only 155 00:09:56.120 --> 00:10:00.200 take the Holy Eucharist from a Catholic priest, he'd tell me. 156 00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:04.360 Uh again, which is just like this is his own grandfather. 157 00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:09.759 I swear in my memory he called it the Holy Uterus. Uh, 158 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:13.480 it's just rude to a dead guy who you're related to. 159 00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:19.360 But I actually don't understand. Uh, the the intricacies of 160 00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:23.320 that is that some sort of controversy, right, who you 161 00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:24.600 receive communian from? 162 00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:30.200 I am I'm not a Catholic, uh like despite no, 163 00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:32.799 just despite my Mediterranean roots. 164 00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:38.559 That's going to be awkward. Yeah, podcast, I really based 165 00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:42.559 this on assuming that you were Catholic and from New York, 166 00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:44.720 because you said once you were kind of Italian. 167 00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:48.759 Yeah, you know, I am a I am a Protestant, so. 168 00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:53.200 Much like much like this masterpart, his grandfather just making 169 00:10:53.600 --> 00:11:00.720 rod racial categorizations. Yeah, that's the fourth one, the blacks 170 00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:04.320 cause all the crime, all the Catholics are at Italian. 171 00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:13.440 Yeah yeah, I mean, but I don't understand why this 172 00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:15.879 guy would take issue with what his grandfather is doing here, 173 00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.480 Like I don't, like, you know, I don't know, I 174 00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:24.120 do not take communion from a pastor like only But 175 00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:27.159 it doesn't seem crazy to me for a Catholic guide 176 00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:29.600 to you know, expect that I don't know. 177 00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:32.840 It seems like a relatively reasonable thing. It also seems 178 00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:37.799 unrelated to SBC. Here a photo of Jesus Saves with 179 00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:41.720 the entire KKKA in front of it. Who you know, 180 00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:43.559 look like, I don't pretend to be a historian in 181 00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:48.519 the organization. But they didn't like Catholics. That's sort of 182 00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:53.720 part of their thing. Yeah, this is sort of a 183 00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:57.279 broad pastiche of everyone I don't like is exactly the same, 184 00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:01.279 and they're all retarded, which love Like, is this sort 185 00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:03.879 of analysis that I'm a big fan of when it's 186 00:12:04.200 --> 00:12:08.360 me doing it? Yeah, but uh from a failed serious 187 00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:11.840 XM radio host, it's somewhat hard to take the take 188 00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:12.879 the criticism. 189 00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:18.440 Yeah, yeah, this is uh okay. I like the idea 190 00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:23.559 that white supremacy exists on a spectrum, that's a historical 191 00:12:23.639 --> 00:12:29.840 that's an interesting, you know, interesting thing to say. I 192 00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:31.879 guess that. I mean, it's fucking stupid. 193 00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:36.559 But yeah, so a lot of this is just kind 194 00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:40.120 of general bloviating. Right, he's not a very good writer, 195 00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:43.879 for instance, like he's which is a minor thing, but 196 00:12:44.080 --> 00:12:48.200 like you actually see it here, right, both starting two 197 00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:51.799 paragraphs in sequence with the same word, and also starting 198 00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:55.639 things constantly with butt or and the M dash by 199 00:12:55.679 --> 00:13:00.000 the way video viewers may have picked this out, really 200 00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:01.879 leads me to believe that he used to a I 201 00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:05.440 to help him write this, because no human being uses 202 00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:07.159 that many M dashes. 203 00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:15.120 Uh yeah, and this does seem like kind of dog 204 00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:18.960 shit writing. When the first thing that you highlighted where 205 00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:23.879 it said that his grandfather's name was Leonard and he 206 00:13:23.960 --> 00:13:30.039 also sometimes went by Lenny, it's like, yeah, man, did 207 00:13:30.080 --> 00:13:31.279 you need to add that on? 208 00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:35.240 Like this is sort of self explanatory, right, Like you. 209 00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:37.879 Couldn't notice you couldn't have referred to him as Lenny 210 00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:39.279 later in the paragraph and. 211 00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:45.279 Just we could fill it in. Yeah. Yeah, his Christian 212 00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:48.559 name was Michael, but everyone knew him as Yeah. 213 00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:53.360 His friends called him like okay, thanks man. This is 214 00:13:53.519 --> 00:13:55.320 you know, powerful writing, you know. 215 00:13:56.799 --> 00:13:59.480 So he goes through this kind of you know, uh, 216 00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:07.360 vague history of quote unquote white supremacy which is attached 217 00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:11.639 to Christianity. He never actually proves this right. He talks about, 218 00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:14.000 you know, how how white supremacist violence is tied to 219 00:14:14.000 --> 00:14:17.159 those who quote serve Christian values. He talks about the 220 00:14:17.200 --> 00:14:21.720 Sixteenth Street Baptist Church bombing, the Charleston Church massacre, and 221 00:14:21.879 --> 00:14:23.919 the Unite the Right rally, which, like, I mean, look, 222 00:14:23.960 --> 00:14:25.919 I don't pretend to be the biggest Dylan Roof fan, 223 00:14:26.039 --> 00:14:29.879 but like you know, that seems to be a certainly 224 00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:35.600 a one sided reading, right of his motivations. But there's 225 00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:40.679 there's other just very stupid poor writing mistakes, like this 226 00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:43.360 section where he says, but all forms of white supremacy 227 00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:46.480 m dash the belief in the superiority of white people 228 00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:47.039 over others. 229 00:14:47.360 --> 00:14:52.759 Like oh, thanks, yeah, yeah, I was wondering if you 230 00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:55.600 know where that was going to come in. That's yeah, 231 00:14:55.720 --> 00:14:56.480 that's very good. 232 00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:01.200 So and this is a really interest point, right because 233 00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:05.840 I'm sure you've seen the memely right that it's not happening. 234 00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:09.039 Maybe it's happening. It is happening. It's actually a good 235 00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:11.279 thing for sure, right, because he talks a lot about 236 00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:15.120 the whole you will not replace us chant, right, the 237 00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:17.200 you know this thing that they said at Unite the Right, 238 00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:22.440 but also the big scary uh you know, replacement theory. 239 00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:24.799 You know, a great replacement if you will keep that 240 00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:28.759 in mind, because in the conclusion we see that exact 241 00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:33.279 same meme, right, come back around. So he goes through right, 242 00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:38.480 the the idea of you know, Africans being descended from him, right, 243 00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:43.000 and in fact he blames this for slavery. Right. He says, 244 00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:46.879 this is the whole reason people invented slaves because of 245 00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:51.159 the Bible. Uh. Lee, I don't assume that you're an 246 00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:53.840 expert on the subject of slavery, but can you think 247 00:15:53.879 --> 00:16:00.480 of any society that had slavery and didn't have the Bible? H? 248 00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:02.799 Well, uh. 249 00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:07.519 Yeah, one or two? 250 00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:12.840 Yeah, yeah, it's it seems uh, you know, I don't 251 00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:16.320 think it's Sorry. 252 00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:15.440 I'm. 253 00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:21.559 The thing of slavery like that for for listeners who 254 00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:24.200 are not seeing this, that this headline is in like 255 00:16:24.200 --> 00:16:28.600 a like a bold section heading, it says slavery comma 256 00:16:28.919 --> 00:16:30.120 with ham. 257 00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:35.360 Uh sorry, that's so. 258 00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:38.279 I'm just I'm just cycling through a rolex of like 259 00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:44.799 racial puns about food that black people like to eat. 260 00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:48.519 It rights itself at a certain point, you know, you're like, 261 00:16:50.039 --> 00:16:53.559 it's like if you're you're playing some sort of net sport, right, 262 00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:55.919 like a friend of the show car Camp, you know, 263 00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:59.559 he plays volleyball and it's just a lob right like 264 00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:02.919 right over there, and so you almost feel bad, right 265 00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:06.160 for just smashing a line drive or whatever, because it's 266 00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:12.279 too easy. You know, it's just right, it's it's a layup, right, 267 00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:16.960 You almost feel low for kind of stooping to that. Right, So, 268 00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:21.000 for instance, they go through this kind of very reddit point, 269 00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:24.799 like even in all caps the debunking where to begin. 270 00:17:26.119 --> 00:17:31.640 So they go through the kind of again very shall 271 00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:37.559 we say, inconsistent argument here. There's a very interesting point, right, 272 00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:40.920 because again you'll notice that the terms of who we 273 00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:44.079 don't like is constantly shifting. Right, we talked about Catholics 274 00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:46.680 at the beginning, we don't like them. They talked about 275 00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:49.519 the KKK. Okay, I guess those are the same thing. 276 00:17:50.279 --> 00:17:52.880 But and look, I don't want to insult any of 277 00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:56.200 my LDS viewers. There's a whole digression on Mormons, and 278 00:17:56.240 --> 00:18:00.000 at this point, right, these are like three completely differ 279 00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:04.279 emploints on the map. But this guy really doesn't like 280 00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:08.559 his grandpa and kind of just associates anyone he doesn't like, 281 00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:14.960 right with his grandpa seems to think, Yeah, it's very 282 00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:17.720 much the whole like Anarco fatherlessness to me, right, I 283 00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:19.759 don't think this guy's an anarchist, right, But it's the 284 00:18:20.279 --> 00:18:22.839 you know, leftist politics is just a rejection of first 285 00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:31.079 God then my dad. Right. So yeah, again going through 286 00:18:31.240 --> 00:18:33.400 the kind of you know, the history of like the 287 00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:36.759 LDS stuff, right where Mormons believe that the mark of 288 00:18:36.839 --> 00:18:41.680 Cain meant Black's skin. I don't pretend to know anything 289 00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:42.200 about that. 290 00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:47.359 Yeah, but that's also that's a common mistranslation the like 291 00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:50.759 I've looked into this, and the Greek like like the 292 00:18:50.799 --> 00:18:56.720 original Greek often gets curtailed at the end. They're talking 293 00:18:56.720 --> 00:18:59.039 about the mark of Caine's chicken, meaning if you go 294 00:18:59.079 --> 00:19:08.920 to a Cane's chick, it gets it gets truncated when 295 00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:11.200 you translate it to English. But in Greek it's it's 296 00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:11.920 very obvious. 297 00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:16.079 The guy who started that gas station chicken restaurant is like, guys, 298 00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:20.400 I've got a great idea that's been sitting here for 299 00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:28.319 thousands of years just on the ground. I mean, look, 300 00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:34.079 I'm not too proud to admit it's sometimes gas station 301 00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:36.599 fried Chicken's pretty great, like you know what, like sometimes 302 00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:40.839 it hits the spot. It's it's not it's not high culture. Uh, 303 00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:44.039 but I would feel a little bit uncomfortable, you know, 304 00:19:44.119 --> 00:19:49.039 bringing that into a scholarly discussion on why my dad 305 00:19:49.359 --> 00:19:51.440 or why my grandpa sucks and I'm glad he died. 306 00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:54.359 You know, I think that it's perhaps best to leave 307 00:19:54.400 --> 00:19:57.240 that out. But you know what, this man swinging for 308 00:19:57.279 --> 00:20:01.920 the fences on his retarded Italian Catholic debt grandfather. 309 00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:05.079 Well, that's really what this is, is that it's just 310 00:20:05.240 --> 00:20:10.799 it is swinging for the fences. And just like I don't, 311 00:20:10.839 --> 00:20:12.200 I don't know, I don't, I don't know who this 312 00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:17.160 person is. But this is bad writing, and it's a 313 00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:21.119 retarded premise, and it doesn't really seem to have anything 314 00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:27.319 to do with anything. This is basically like a cover 315 00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:30.359 letter for him trying to get hired at some type 316 00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:34.400 of think tank or something like that. Like this is 317 00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:39.960 this is basically just him accepting, in so many words, accepting, 318 00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:42.680 you know, the invite to to Shabbat dinner at the 319 00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:43.480 Heritage Foundation. 320 00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:47.960 And really the reason I've been skipping over most of 321 00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:50.960 this is that, genuinely most of this is just flawed, 322 00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:54.279 doesn't actually need to be there. It's just kind of a. 323 00:20:55.079 --> 00:20:59.279 Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is all I mean, what what 324 00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:01.839 are we what do we got here? A core element 325 00:21:01.880 --> 00:21:03.319 of Christian nationalism? 326 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:05.880 Oh, this is the meat of it, right, This is 327 00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:09.319 this is the meat. This is getting to the it 328 00:21:09.359 --> 00:21:12.599 is happening, and it's actually a good thing. Right. The 329 00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:14.680 thing that I told you to stop being worried, to 330 00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:18.400 stop worrying about is actually awesome. I like it, and 331 00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:22.079 you should just die. This is basically the conclusion all 332 00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:24.519 of this other stuff is just him chronicling people he 333 00:21:24.559 --> 00:21:27.400 doesn't like who have said things that don't align with 334 00:21:27.480 --> 00:21:31.480 kind of modern progressive sensibilities and painting them all. Whether 335 00:21:31.880 --> 00:21:36.960 you know eighty five IQ Catholic house painters from Brooklyn 336 00:21:37.680 --> 00:21:44.079 that the Klan, Dylan Rufe, Jerry Folwell or Mormons as 337 00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:47.160 the same thing. Right, this is really just just guilt 338 00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:50.240 by association, right, just kind of tarring and feathering people 339 00:21:50.279 --> 00:21:53.880 by bringing up the sort of figures that are unpopular 340 00:21:54.240 --> 00:21:58.200 with the dozens of people who read this. Right and again, 341 00:21:58.359 --> 00:22:01.240 this term Christian nationalism again, it is sort of an 342 00:22:01.279 --> 00:22:04.920 empty signifier. Right. It basically just means everyone I don't like, 343 00:22:05.759 --> 00:22:08.319 so going into this and this I will well read 344 00:22:08.440 --> 00:22:11.799 a little bit more. Right. A core element of Christian 345 00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:14.319 nationalism is the myth that America was founded as a 346 00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:17.200 deeply Christian nation. And yeah, we may have dabbled in 347 00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:20.839 a little ethnic cleansing, some random occasional slavery, and some 348 00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:24.200 barely their segregation, but that doesn't matter in our golden 349 00:22:24.240 --> 00:22:29.680 imagined past. So look like everything after the yeah is 350 00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:37.400 one very painful millennial writing two. Sorry, America was founded 351 00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:40.920 as a deeply Christian nation, like the whole, like Christian nationalism, 352 00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:46.279 religion isn't really might be, but like it was illegal 353 00:22:46.440 --> 00:22:50.119 to commit blasphemy right like this this is not some 354 00:22:50.319 --> 00:22:51.000 like myth. 355 00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:57.079 Right if someone like anytime someone tells you that America 356 00:22:57.839 --> 00:23:00.759 you know, does not like was not a Christian nation 357 00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:04.480 or was not founded with like that in mind, or 358 00:23:04.519 --> 00:23:07.440 that this was not the prevailing sentiment of the era, 359 00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:13.359 or any anytime someone is saying that, I mean, you 360 00:23:13.400 --> 00:23:16.119 can pretty much just write off everything that they're saying 361 00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:20.119 because it's just not true. It's just like okay, like 362 00:23:20.160 --> 00:23:23.599 you're you're setting this up like you were trying to, 363 00:23:24.920 --> 00:23:28.440 you know, work a premise here that is you know, 364 00:23:28.519 --> 00:23:33.920 not historically correct, because like you're trying to launder this. 365 00:23:34.039 --> 00:23:40.400 You you presume that no matter what you say, you know, 366 00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:44.599 I'm going to support George Washington. And therefore, if you 367 00:23:44.720 --> 00:23:48.400 make it sound like George Washington was actually George Floyd. 368 00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:51.880 I will suddenly start liking George Floyd. This this is 369 00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:55.160 the same thing that people do. They do this for, 370 00:23:55.279 --> 00:23:57.920 like the free market. Any anytime you get some like 371 00:23:58.640 --> 00:24:03.079 homosexual at the Cato Institute telling you that, uh, you know, 372 00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:06.759 actually Ben Franklin would want this chicken factory that employs 373 00:24:06.759 --> 00:24:10.319 your entire family to be shut down and reopened under 374 00:24:10.359 --> 00:24:14.079 Indian management with Haitian migrants. Uh don't don't you believe 375 00:24:14.119 --> 00:24:16.599 in the free market? Like this is this has been 376 00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:19.359 Shapiro telling you that, well, maybe you need to move 377 00:24:19.359 --> 00:24:21.799 out of your hometowns and accept that there's no economic 378 00:24:21.839 --> 00:24:28.480 opportunity because you're you know, you have been replaced by foreigners. 379 00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:30.880 Like it's like, okay, man, like just shut up. Like 380 00:24:31.160 --> 00:24:34.799 what you are doing is lying when you say that 381 00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:39.039 America was you know, not a Christian nation at its founding, 382 00:24:39.119 --> 00:24:41.400 and that the the you know, the the founders and 383 00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:44.720 the men who wrote the Declaration of Independence and right 384 00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:47.839 you know, the Constitution and all this stuff there. Really 385 00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:51.119 it was more of a you know, more of a 386 00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:56.319 loose conglomeration of you know, intellectual dark Web guys who 387 00:24:56.519 --> 00:24:59.720 just really really liked having libertarian debate. It's like, no, 388 00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:03.680 you should delete your account if that's like, like, if 389 00:25:03.680 --> 00:25:06.839 that's what you really think, Like if you think that earnestly, 390 00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:09.440 you're retarded, and so I don't want to talk to you. 391 00:25:10.519 --> 00:25:13.759 And if you're expecting me to think that earnestly or 392 00:25:14.119 --> 00:25:17.559 asking me to come around on that, then you're a 393 00:25:17.559 --> 00:25:19.319 snake and I don't want to talk to you. 394 00:25:20.720 --> 00:25:24.200 Well and again, right, you see this sort of facade 395 00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:26.920 of dialogue, right, this idea that this is some sort 396 00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:31.720 of genuine conversation. We're bringing some semblance of argument to 397 00:25:31.759 --> 00:25:35.000 the debate. It's not. He just hates you when he 398 00:25:35.039 --> 00:25:37.039 wants you to go away. That's really what it comes 399 00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:39.160 down to, Like all of this other stuff. The reason 400 00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:41.839 I skipped over it is because it doesn't matter. He's 401 00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:45.960
