Speaker 1: It's gonna sound crazy. People should spend more time concentrating
on what the devil wants, because you know what the
devil wants, it can do the opposite. It's the George
Costanza rule. Jeff spent my whole life doing the wrong thing.
I'm going to do the opposite of what might want.
What I want to do, I'm gonna do the opposite.
It's a Castanza rule for dealing with spirituality. And you
know what the devil wants. Race, race, Race Race, Let's
counter with culture. We'll talk about this with the help
of Boer Capital Management, No Yours podcast dot com, and
God Almighty.
Speaker 2: But Todd Herman show is one disapproved by big pharma
technocrats in tyrans everywhere from the high mountains of Free America.
Here's the Emerald City exime.
Speaker 1: Todd Herman. Today is the day the Lord has made,
and these are the times through which God has decided
we shall live. We would be really, really wise to
think about what the devil wants. That's a weird thing.
Think about what the devil wants, because that gives you
an opportunity to do the opposite of what the devil wants.
And if you're young, you might not remember George Costanza
from Seinfeld. He just had this realization that, Jerry, I've
been living my life the wrong way. Every decision I've
made in my life has been the wrong one. From
here on out, I'm going to do the opposite of
what I want. So they're sitting there with the diner
and the waight just comes by and says to George,
what do you want to have the chicken salad? And wait, stop, Jerry,
what's the opposite of chicken salad?
Speaker 2: Tuna?
Speaker 1: I'm having the tuna. Then there's a woman up at
the bar, up at the counter, eating lunch alone. George
walks over to her and says, Hi, my name is George.
I'm thirty seven, I'm unemployed, and I live with my parents.
She turns and says, well, Hi, if we know what
the devil wants, we can do the opposite. So, yes,
we should know what God wants. And on the topic
of culture, the devil doesn't want us to think about
culture because cultures can be changed, Cultures have value, Cultures
can be explained, Cultures can be explored, they can be modified,
they can be understood. Race cannot be because race has
been delineated down to skin color. That's what the devil
wants white versus black, or bipos versus whites, because it
is minimalism, it's shrill, it's breakable, it's all the things
that the devil wants us to be. He wants us
to be shrilled and breakable. He wants us to be
able to look at fellow human beings and go, they're
not in my tribe. Masking did this, they're not in
my tribe. It still does this. Mega hats do that
they're not in my tribe. Bumper strips or bumper stickers
if you like, do that, they're not in my tribe.
The fact of the matter is, as Americans, we have
far more in common than they want us to know.
And the devil wants us to know. Race, race, race, race, race,
because you can get out in the world and go
a little darker skin, a little wier skin. I bet
that white he is again me or culture requires us
to actually dig in and think about some things. Look
at this picture of this woman. This is an anti
ice protester who went to storm this church. She's one
of many, and she's been identified as Chantale Allen, a
school board member for Saint Paul Public Schools. She's in
charge of your school's education. You could look at her
and see black women. I could look at her and say,
what culture brought her to do this? Because it's not
her genomics, it's not her DNA. There are no genes
for I like to disrupt church services. There's a culture
that says I'm going to disrupt church services because people
disagree with me, because I feel entitled to do this
because I'm a school employee and I know better about
people's education and children's education. There's culture that it contributes
to that that's not race. The culture of that entitlement
is something that we should confront. Who are you that
you think your words matter so much that you should
be able to force them upon others in a church setting?
And I know one of the organizers as of this
morning has been arrested by the FBI, and people are saying,
are they going to arrest Donnie Lemon, Hey, Pam Bondi's
doing a thing? Look at that. It must be her race.
And in the case of Pam Bondi, I think it's
just she wants to keep her job is probably what
that is culture, not race. We should speak culture not race.
How do I know this? Because the devil wants us
to hate, and a shortcut to hate is being able
to look at any normal human being and say, oh,
I hate them, and I fall victim to this. I'll
confess something to you. I grew up in Washington State.
We raised our family mostly in Washington State. I lived
in Washington State most of my life. When I'm in
North Idaho, now, if there's someone with Washington State plates
driving in front of me and they're going too slow,
and I'm looking at my stink and wah, what we call
them spoke criminals? Spoke cancers are Chris stink and spoke.
I don't know if they're a spoke criminal. They're going
too slow, they're probably spoke kinders. Oh I'm gonna go
slow down. It's icy, so look at we can all
fall victim to this. And it's not their race. It's
not even know where they're from that come from a
culture of slow drivers. So let's speak culture not race,
because the devil wants us focus on this. I know
this as well because there's something this guy named Jesus taught.
It's something the Lord taught about race. And look I'm
gonna tell you something right now. This isn't a race thing.
It's a culture thing. It has occurred to me. I
am ambidextrous when it comes to drinking out of a tumbler. Okay,
so tumbler like this ambidextris. Yeah, this is what this
one you haven't seen. It's new to you, Alex actives ex.
If this is new, it's new to you Alex. Therefore
it's new to uh, it's it's new to the studio.
But when I come to drinking with a mug, I
can't do the left handed thing. So I need Tim
to make a right handed mug at Bone Frog Coffee
because if I'm gonna show this the right camera, look
at the beautiful, beautiful embossing on that. Hey look, I
can look up at the camera on the live rumblestream.
If you're a member of the Substack audience paid Subseex subscribers,
you get the live stream. So that's embossed right on
it Bone Frog Coffee Company. Now what's missing on this
is God Country Team. Got to get Tim to put
God Country Team on this. The merchandise section contains this
the T shirt I'm wearing. I actually have a hoodia
I'm wearing today. All that stuff is new at Bonefrogcoffee
dot com slash Todd. So if you are a subscriber
and you want to level up on the bone Frog support,
go do that. I'll try to get him to make
a tumbler. Since I'm ambidextrous with this. Look at that
Bonefrog Coffee dot Com slash Todd promo code Todd get
ten percent off your first purchase fifteen percent of subscription coffee,
and I'm gonna bug Tim to make a right handed mug.
Let's talk culture Nott race. The devil wants this focused
on race. He wants us to be divided, so he
loves to have instant signs of division, such as, Oh,
look at that big stinking truck. I bet they don't
even have a ranch. Or look at that sports car.
Bet they can't even go two or miles an hour.
There's a long study and it's basically a proof of
concept for a method to measure the distances between cultures.
And when they did this study, and you can read this,
there's a link of the show notes. It's super dense,
it's not even that fun to read. But what they're
doing is testing a mathematical process to determine the distances
in cultures and the cultural focuses, the obsessions of cultures,
the core of cultures, and it's a multivariate rarity of
Western psychology is common and upon by William Meiser did
this commentary based upon the study. So the scientists came
up with Western educated, industrial, rich, and democratic, which they
call weird psychology. Why is it weird because what the
psychology shows among the West is that Western populations exhibit
some things that are global believe weird. This is our culture,
largely American culture, higher individualism, but are more willing to
cooperate and extend moral concern beyond kin, place greater emphasis
on personal freedom and self expression, greater tolerance for individual variation,
and place less emphasis on obedience to authority. Let's pause
here and think about what the World Economic Forum, the
UN the people who ran Joe Biden have been importing
into our country people who do not share these attributes,
not because of their DNA, not because of their melanine levels,
but because of their cultures. Their cultures put a great
deal of emphasis on tribalism. In the case of Somalians,
we know there was a tribal war over trying to
replace Jacob Frey as mayor. Too many Somalians ran elan
Omar went back to her Simalian district and said, and
she's called it a Simalian district. That's her words. She
went back and said, y'all voted for the wrong tribe.
You need to vote for my tribe. You can say
this is a criticism of Samoan culture, go at it.
I'm simply describing a difference in cultures. To me, tribalism
doesn't work. To me, tribalism begets division, It begets countries
within countries. What does Jesus say about race in the
body of Christ? There isn't any. Don't try to carry
your race suitcase into the body of Christ. It doesn't
belong there. Jesus doesn't see it. He himself said, there
is neither Greek nor Jew. He doesn't see these things.
There's neither male nor female, there's neither. There's neither a
servant nor master. Those things don't exist in the body
of Christ. How could they when He made us all.
There's no masters in the body of Christ. Because there's Christ.
He's the master. We are the servants, all of us.
In the body of Christ. So tribalism is of course
then not not alignable with the Christian faith. So I
did an interesting thing. I went to Google's AI and
I asked Google's AI to look at this, and I
asked them to create an extract of the responses or
of the summation of this study. What was fascinating is
Google wouldn't do it. The AI refused. It linked back
to the study. It linked to the math and the study,
and I had to actually demand. I had to say
to the Google AI, complete your assignment. And it took
three or four times to get it to complete its assignment.
And it said, this is a quantitative proof that the
United States is a significant psychological outlier compared to the
rest of the world. It is the weirdest of the
weird nations, meaning findings from American samples are often the
least representative of global human psychology. Pause our culture different. Now,
I contend this is why Google did not want to
go through and do the summation because of what it shows.
It shows a uniqueness to American culture, which is being
changed with mass immigration of people who do not want
to adapt to our culture. They're not coming here to
be part of our culture. They're being told, come here
and establish your own cultural your own cultural cities. That's
what they're being told. Don't blame them, they're being invited
in in that way. Development of the cultural fixation index.
The researchers adapted the fixation index, originally a tool from
evolutionary biology for measuring genetic distance, to measure a cultural distance.
They use data from the World Value Survey to calculate
how much culture variation exists between different societies predictive power
of cultural distance. So that's what they did. That's how
it worked. And they say by using these scales, as
psychologists can determine exactly how distant their target population is
for the existing data to help them decide if a
new study will likely results or simply replicate the known
Western findings. See a lot of psychology globally is based
upon Western values, Western culture. This isn't a race. We
have multiple races in the United States. We are majority white.
Whatever white means to me, it means nothing. And I
know that really bothers people. I know that really bothers
a lot of young men who say we're being deracified.
I don't care. I care about our culture, our language,
our borders, our faith, how we raise our kids, how
we govern ourselves. I really really strongly support the culture
of elected sheriffs. That's a cultural decision. And right now
the left and globalists they want to destroy the elected
sheriff position culturally, not race based, because they have a culture.
That culture demands authoritarianism. And let's go back up to
one of the big key delineators of Western culture. We
are against authoritarian reign. That's how you can have this
insane thing of the same people who supported Gavin Newsom's
police forces arresting surfers because they were out in the
ocean during a period of time where we were supposed
to stay home and stay safe, and they supported that,
they do not support law enforcement out arresting people in
our country illegally. And you can make that vice versa change.
You have Republicans and Conservatives supporting Ice going out doing
what they're doing in Minnesota and elsewhere, who could not
stand what police did during the lockdown period because it
was authoritarian. And what the people who are attempting to
tear our society part understand is if we can make
Americans want authoritarianism for their side, you break down one
of the big cultural differences of America, which has, in
my judgment, sustained America because we are against that form
of authority and we're willing to help. The breaking down
of the culture in America begins at the family level.
So Michelle Obama is part of this. And she just
did this interview and I didn't have time to grab
this this morning. Do you know that she went on
a podcast devoted to what women wear and then sat
down on this podcast saying, I can't even believe that
people care about what I wear. All the headlines are
about what I wore. Do you know what her book's about?
Her new book, it's about what she wore. Is that
a race thing or is that a culture thing? Because
Michelle Obama loves to speak the language of race, and
here she is speaking the language of race. But do
all black people do this? Do all educated black women
do this? No, there's a cultural aspect to Michelle Obama.
Speaker 3: If I hear of someone who's fashion that I like,
and I know that they're a person of color, and
try to make it a point, but the clothes have
to be available, you know, I think we can all
do some more to think about that balance in our wardrobes.
You know, what does our closet look like, and who's
in it? Who are we supporting in it? You know?
And I think if you have the money to buy Chanel,
then you have the money to buy everybody's right and
so let us be mindful, I think would be my advice.
Speaker 1: This is a black thing. Maybe I have never once
given thought to the race of the person who made
a product I bought. Country. Sure, I'll look at that
and say, you know what, I actually really try not
to buy things from China because of the Chinese Communist
Party and what I believe they do to people. I
choose not to do that. That's a cultural thing. When
I go visit Mexico, I really try hard to say
I want to eat actual food from actual Mexico and
actual Mexicans when I can. I want to have that
experience because I want absorb that culture. Michelle Obama here's
talking about clothes, saying she can't stand that people talk
about her clothes. What culture drives this? Because there's a
lot of black people who haven't given five seconds thought
to did this T shirt get made by a black person?
Or this suit? It's a culture of what narcissism? Are
there narcissistic cultures? Yes? Are there aspects of American life
or are there industries or professions that draw narcissisms narcissists
in Yes, CEOs politicians draw in narcissists. What is a
narcissistic culture, Well, narcissistic culture is me, me, me, It's
what can I get? What does the world owe me?
Michelle Obama has become I think, more narcissistic as that's
been backed up. Her husband is clearly narcissistic. If you
go look at an Obama speech, the number of eyes
that are mentioned. You can't and as he did in
Colorado when he's running for president on a stage of
a Barackopolis that was built to look like a Roman
cathedral and he coming out as Caesar and then having
his airplane seat made into the seal of the President
the United States of America, you can't do that. You
can't say we are the ones we've been waiting for.
You can't stand and make a speech saying that you
are going to cause the oceans to heal without being
a narcissist. And there's plenty of black people look at that.
Go bro, you are so narcissistic. That's not race, it's culture.
So let's talk about culture. Michelle Obama comes from a
culture of a college that taught her racial grievance. She
comes from a state with a culture of merchandising racial grievance.
She entered the world of politics, which is a culture
of divide and conquer. It's a culture of moving people
into attitude in the boxes. It just happens that race
and gender are too easy boxes to move people into,
because if you are a person grounded in reality, you
can look down at your geneta and go, oh, I'm
a woman, I should vote Democrat. I'm a dude, I
should vote Republican. And yes, they add these other things
on top of this, because it's culture, not race, not gender,
and that's what we should be talking about. What does
the devil want us doing? The devil wants us to
look at Michelle Obama and number one hate her. Number
two hate people like her. Number three look at her
and go, man, thank god, I'm not like her. Thank God,
I don't care about how I look as I sit
here having gone to a tanning salon yesterday, as they
sit here with a lint thing over there to get
the cat for off my shirt as they sit here
in his studio, God built with a light you can't
see right up there to make sure that my face
is lit up, and another light over here. And at
some point when we started this, all the folks who
consulted with us on the studio actually came to me
with clothes they wanted me to wear that would match
the set, and a colorist. But thank god, I'm not
like Michelle Obama. So Michelle Obama also comes from a
culture where there is an ends that justify the means.
This is the culture of Elenskyism. It's the culture of Leninism.
Getting what you want justifies the means of getting it. Now,
Michelle Obama has what she wants, which is billions of dollars,
but she has left she has not left behind the
culture of grievance, the culture of race grievance, even though
they've been rewarded with being billionaires many times over. So
I'll show you some people who are of a different race,
but they have many of the same mentalities that Michelle
Obama does, expressed in different ways. But they tend to
be many of the same mentalities. Don't show what I
mean here in a second, there's a culture in American medicine,
and this this week there's been a formative It just happens.
Late last night a lawsuit was announced in California against
the American Academy of Pediatrics. We have time to talk
about it here, but it's a rico suit and it
contends that the American Academy of Pediatrics is basically a
shill for pharma companies. I tend to concur and you
can read the lawsuit. There are people in this country.
I just talked to a woman yesterday, friend of ours,
who's looking into having stem cells done in America, and
they said the most interesting thing to her. They said,
you know what, when we gather the placentas and umbilical
cords for our stem cells, it's only when a woman's
in a C section delivery. Oh okay. And I just said, well,
why did they say that matters? They say, it's more
steryle okay. But then they take these stem cells, they
do very little manipulation to them, They freeze them. They
don't track the health of the women because they're not
allowed to use donor stem cells, meaning it comes from
all sorts of women they don't know who they are.
They don't track their health during pregnancy or afterwards. They
freeze the stem cells, they ship them around the country.
Lord knows how many times they're jostled or bumped around,
or how many how long they're frozen before they're injected
into you, and who does the actual quality check before
they inject them into you. So she was looking at
having this done across the border in Washington State. I said, now,
maybe that place has the largest hyperbreck chamber in North America. No,
they don't, because Renew has that. Do they even have
a hyperbrek chamber? Do they give you a series of
IVS before they give you the stem cells? And by
the way, in the case of Renew in healthcare in Mexico,
those stem cells come from the delivery room carried downstairs
into a Class four lab. The only higher lab is
Class five. That's where you'd work with things like a bola.
It's a negative oxygen environment. Renew makes thrown oxygen. They
have the largest hyperbrek chamber in North America, and they're
building a larger one so you can actually go to
the bathroom like when you're in the hyperbrek chamber. You
don't have to wait to get out. The level of
quality is beyond compare. So if you're being told that
you have to have surgery that's muscular, skeletal, or even
for things like traumatic brain injuries, they've cured all of
these things. They have in fact, reset people's entire immune systems,
and that's what our friend needs. Her immune system is whack,
and they've got great track words under this. So just
get in touch with renew It's r E n ue
dot healthcare. Theirs is a culture of obsession with quality.
Renew r E n ue dot healthcare. That's renew r
E n ue dot Healthcare. I'm looking into the live
chat here. What do we have going on here? Is
carm and Mexican food is totally different than textmex most
Americans know. Thank you Brandon, that's exactly right. We all
have our own planks in our eyes to work through.
Thank you, Admin Scott. Appreciate you saying that American medicine interesting.
They can't figure out why I have footpain to extreme
levels without B twelve shots. Luckily three me my doctor
pushes back when I ask why I need such extreme
levels of it. You can join the subsack Chat no,
pardon me, the rumble Chat. All sub sect subscribers are
allowed in there. Go to the Todd Hermit show that
subseack dot com and we can interact during the show,
which I would love to do. So back to this
topic of culture, not race, because what the devil wants
us on is race, race, race, race, race, Because culture
requires us to take a step back. What was the
culture of Christianity when Jesus taught? Did Jesus? And I
see this now they're doing this, This is so desperate.
There are people now in favor of disrupting ice and
going out and stopping cops from doing their jobs. And
they're saying, Jesus did it. No, Jesus allowed himself to
be arrested and then in defensive people who want to
disrupt this church service, and the FBI has now arrested
one of the organizers of this. They're saying, well, Jesus
went and overturned the tables in the temple. He was Jesus,
that was his house, those tables were his, those animals
belonged to him. He's God, part of the triune Godhead.
He gets to do things we don't get to do.
He didn't interrupt a religious service, by the way, in
a temple, he is the religious service. He is the law.
There's a difference. The culture of christ was a culture
of humility. It was a culture of allowing people to
come and disrespect the Lord of the world, of the universe.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: James and John when they saw Jesus spat upon by
some Samaritans who walked by, they said, let us ring
down thunder from heaven and destroyment. That's where they got
their nicknames Brothers of Thunder. Because Jesus said no. All
they did was sort of somew at me and spit
at me. I'm not going to do that. He restrained them.
It was a culture of humility. When Roman soldiers came
and wanted to make people walk a mile with their equipment,
Jesus said, walk to walk too, free your heap coals
in their head, Coals of shame. What cults of shame
when you do that. That was the culture. That's the
culture of Christianity. The culture of Christianity is church. You
don't have to like it, but it's a culture of Christianity.
Going to church as part of being a Christian, as
being in the body of christ. So does this man
belong to a different culture than Michelle Obama? He expresses
this in a different way. His name is William Kelly.
He says he does not regret taking over a Christian church.
Speaker 4: Yesterday, I went into a church with the chema Armstrong
and I protested these white supremacists. A pastor of the
church is ane leader in the city.
Speaker 1: How can you be a pastor and be a ice agent?
Speaker 2: Cool?
Speaker 4: Sorry, guys, how can they live so comfortably while the
people that are in this country legally they have citizenship.
Speaker 1: And pray? How do they deserve any difference? You can't
even go to their mosque and pray. No one's interrupting
the mosques. And uh man, he loves himself some efforts.
So does Michelle Obama go around using efforts? Now? Does
Michelle Obama think it's okay to go out and disrupt cops? Yep,
when they're not working for her husband. But when they're
working for a husband, you best not do it. Go
out and disrupt cops during the Black Lives Matter Incorporated protests,
you better believe it. Take over six blocks of an
American city in Seattle, absolutely, shoot and move tactics of
Black Lives Matter Incorporated, John Brown Club, ANTIFA having what
was it? Oh, it was Lousville, Kentucky. Louisville, Kentucky. They
had a gun battle, shoot and move. Michelle Obama's fine,
that's race. Does he look black? Does he look like
a black woman? A billion or black woman writing books
about what she wears? But upset that people talk about
what she wears. They couldn't be more different racially. He
expresses himself differently. Same culture. You're gonna do what we
want you to do. We're entitled to make you do that.
We're right, you're trash, same culture, expressed differently. It's not race. Now,
what the devil did your heart there? Hate him? That's
what I felt? Hatred? What did you feel? The devil
wants us to do certain things, and we be wise
to pay attention to what he wants. So this is
a woman. She's on a Philadelphia bus. Now, look to
be fair, we don't know what happened before this. We
don't know if these guys were trying to get her
all spun up, so let's be fair. But what we
see is a woman that's apparently been identified as Pauline
at Rays and there's an independent journalist. He's on the bus.
I don't know what they have done to her. Maybe nothing,
Maybe they're just filming. Maybe she's just lit up. But
is she Is it her gender here because that last
guy is a dude. He happens, I understand to be
a farmer. This is a city dweller. Is this her
race and her gender doing this? Or is this her
culture doing this?
Speaker 3: What am I?
Speaker 1: He doesn't one of the old guy right now? I
don't help?
Speaker 2: Why not? Yoh?
Speaker 1: By the way, she is a apparently a Community College
of Philadelphia and works at w h YY News. According
to this, and there is her her bio.
Speaker 3: Whoa, whoa, I'll record, all right, why do you do that?
Speaker 2: Why do you do that?
Speaker 1: I mean he's still big?
Speaker 4: What you.
Speaker 1: So she's pushing people for filming her, and she's a
journalist in a public space, and now she's hitting the dude.
Oh now, she's got the pepper spread of her purse.
With a whole bunch of people on this bus.
Speaker 4: She got in the back of my head with peppers was.
Speaker 5: Still there.
Speaker 2: She's covering.
Speaker 1: You're gonna get nowt's see. Paulerina Paulina Reyes. Is she
a black woman like Michelle Obama. Michell Obama doesn't go
do these things, but she's fine with these things getting done.
Is she a white farmer like William Kelly? Uh, who
understand as a farmer and hates Trump and uses a
bunch of efforts. They use efforts. Hey, she's just like
William Kelly. That must be her race. She must be
a white man. It's a cultural thing. Okay, So Paul,
there she is.
Speaker 5: You want to wait, You want to hang out for
the cops.
Speaker 2: She's coming down here.
Speaker 6: She's gonna wait for the coming back.
Speaker 1: People.
Speaker 5: You want you want to have problem, You want to.
Speaker 1: Hang out, pups, you want to hang out. I'm back
with the pepper, sir. What because people talking about black people.
Speaker 5: Come here?
Speaker 1: Because at that time she got him with the pepper.
Spread race religion, race religion, and nothing about culture. What
culture does she come from? Whyy? That's what listeners supporting
Liberal Community College of Philadelphia college culture grievance, culture, entitlement. Culture.
You don't get to say things about other people. Culture
control the speech of others. Culture. This is her race.
This is what Israe is a Hispanic name. This is
what she does because she's Hispanic. The devil wants us
to look at that face and say different than me.
The devil wants her to look at those guys, go
look at that white entitlement, not bothering to care about culture.
Someone asked me, and I couldn't believe some answer us question.
Had never heard me talk about the fact that, Yes,
I've been in struggle sessions. Yes, I was drawn into
a struggle session. I had to attend an hr struggle
session in Seattle. Yes, I've been in those circumstances where
someone is up there teaching about white privilege. And yes,
I say, I'm a guy who raised my hand and
said many things in that meeting. Finally they let me
leave because it was being disruptive asking questions. And one
of the questions I asked during a small group, because
remember there's a roundtable discussions. As we were talking about
white privilege, and I said to one of my colleagues
at Bonneville, at one of the radio companies, she was
talking about, you know, you should, you should really make
sure Toad that you examined the right privilege and go
tell me about me. She said, what tell me about
my background? I've got all this privilege What is it?
What is my back? Do you know anything about me?
If we've ever met before, we said, well, i've heard
you on the air. Okay, great, congratulations. You're in the
traffic department. Your traffic ads are for You've heard a
little bit of what I said. So tell me about me.
I've got all this privilege.
Speaker 2: What is it?
Speaker 1: I'm a community college dropout. Is that privileged? I grew
up in a divorced home. Is that privileged? My mom
had half the income? If that of the people I
grew up around? Is that my privilege? Is that the
privilege I have? I went through a list of those
things I had to get in here through the back door?
Is that my privilege? My culture? I'll talk to you
all day long about culture. People are taught to hate
what they see, and this is what this devil wants
us to do, is hate what we see, because all
around us we see what. Everybody we've talked about today,
everybody I have shown you today has one huge thing
in common. God loves them. He made them, and know
they are not all his children. The Bible is eminently clear.
You do not get to claim being God's child and
tell you accept the Lord Jesus and are brought back
into the family. Now this one, you could say, we're
breaking way out of the box because we're going to
go see a fighter. Is it his race? Is it
is a religion that causes him to do this? I'd
say it's his culture, it's a race. It is a
bizarre thing that an MMA fighter in Russia maybe forgot
that he was in Russia because he did a thing
before the fight began that got him gang tackled and
beat up after the fight was over. It's a pretty
extraordinary piece of video. We're living right now in incredibly
extraordinary times. The massive change to American culture which President
Trump is undoing through deportations and people deporting themselves could
be forestalling a creation of other states within states like Minnesota,
with a more thoughtful approach to immigration, bringing people in
who want to have their lives protected so they can
pursue liberty and happiness, versus people who want to come
and wholesale change the United States. That's a volatility point.
This speech that President Trump gave in Davos, that's a
volatility point. A lot of people love the speeches. There's
things to love about it. The whispering of we were
going to maybe go attack Iran. That's a volatility point.
What we did in Venezuela is a volatility point. The
midterms are a volatility point.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: To take all those volatile factors and add on top
of that AI and data centers, the boss man of
Blackrock just admitted we're going to have an energy shortage
because of data centers. That's volatility. If you are set
up in a buy and hold portfolio, how on earth
does that offer you protection against volatility? I don't get it.

This comes from Russia. It's an Mma fighter. He happens
to be an Iranian. Is that a race, it's a country,
it's a culture. He's apparently Islamic. That's definitely has cultural
aspects to it. The Islamic culture has a view of women,
a predominant view of women and how women should dress.
I don't know if you saw this video. I didn't
grab this. There was a video in this was in
London where an Islamic man was just berating an English
white girl because she wasn't wearing a head dress. And
he said, this is what did he say? This is
not a Samali area, This is an Islamic area. No,
this is a muslimara. Now this is a muslimarria and
his braiding air. That's a cultural thing. That's not a race.
That's a cultural thing. This Iranian fighter showed something from
his culture. There is a we're supposed to call her
ring girls to do we say ring women because she's
not a girl, she's a woman. But watched this. So
she's out there doing her thing, dressed like they dress,
that's round one and dancer, and he kicks her in
the bottom and she turns around and looks at him
and approaches him. She's upset and why wouldn't she be.
He feels he had the right to do this. And
this is afterwards that he's an MMI pro and he's
getting jumped on by a crowd of like ten fifteen guys.
Another's chairs, Yeah, chair funny, And I want to believe
that an MMA guy can defend himself against a crowd.
But it's now like thirty people. Good luck, So maybe
don't go and kick the lady doing the ring girl
duty out of fight. Is that his race, that's his DNA,
that's his melon and level. That's a cultural thing. So
is the culture of Russian men going uh ah, you're
not doing that here. That's not their race, it's not
their whitism, it's not their privilege, it's their culture. You
don't kick women. There are cultures where you kick women,
which brings us back to culture. Cultures can be rated
for worth, they can be rated for areas that they're
good at, and let's not say that American culture is
good at everything. We have raised a generation of young
people who are suffering from anxiousness disorders like it's never
happened before. We've raised a culture of kids who are
uncomfortable in who they are. And I'm not just talking
about gender. I'm not just talking about that or race.
I'm talking about a culture of young people who are seventeen, eighteen,
sometimes twenty one years old before they can walk into
a store alone. And you can say, snowflake, oh you
want we raised them in this culture. We've raised a
culture of overeaters. We've raised a culture of people with
short attention spans. In fact, there's a new study that
shows that for the first time in recent history, we've
raised a generation of people who have a lesser IQ
than their parents. It's not their race, because it's culture wide.
What did we do? We had some cultural shifts. We
had a culture of public health authorities who said we're
going to make you do this. We have a culture
of Silicon Valley who knows what these phones do to
people's minds and the constant strolling and the constant dopamine
feed and what it does to attention spans and the
ability to be okay, being silent. That's why they often
don't let their kids have these devices. That's why enrich
Silicon Valley homes. There's often device rooms. You want to
use your device, you go into the device room, which
is all glass so we can always see what you're
looking at. And then that room is on lockdown when
you're not allowed in there, and you don't get to
have devices. This is a cultural thing. So let's not
pretend America is perfect on all these cultural fronts. We
have differences, but it doesn't make us perfect. And what
does the devil want us doing?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 1: Our culture is perfect and the other cultures are a mess.
There's differences, for sure, and I believe our culture happens
to be the best one. Why because it recognizes that
we have life because God gave it to us. We
have liberty. God gave us liberty in the garden of Eden.
We had freedom within constraints. That's liberty. He allowed us
to pursue happiness. He told us, hey, you're going to
tend the garden more.
Speaker 2: Here.
Speaker 1: You can eat from any of the plants, just not
the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for
if you eat from that, you will surely die. Then
what came along a culture of rebellion. The devil came
along with the culture of rebellion to God. He imparted
that culture to Eve. Surely he won't die. Culture. After
Adam and Eve were removed from the garden, we saw
the first divorce in a family, Cain and Abel. We
saw tribalism. We saw cultures being raised up to be tribal.
We saw divorce in God's family, and people had expelled
themselves from the family in the Body of Christ were
brought back into the family. Those tribes are gone. Cultures
are one. It's the culture of humility under Christ Jesus.
It's the culture of servant leadership coming under and lifting up.
It's the culture of love, sometimes being an act of
will with specific verbs, always seeking the good of the
other ahead of your own. That's a cultural thing. In
the body of Christ's race is gone and culture becomes
so homogeneous individuality in the body of Christ. Sure, we're
all gifted uniquely, that doesn't go away. Past Paul made
that clear. We're all gifted uniquely, and we all use
that to build the kingdom and serve within the kingdom.
But individuality ends when it comes to who you serve
and who you love, because the universal love is for
Jesus Christ. So it's a culture that becomes who we are.
We become the culture. So this is another instance. Is
it the race of these cops? This comes from Miami
Beach police showed up at a residence house because they
contend that she made anti Semitic comments. Now, remember, one
of the unique things about American culture is we are
against authoritarian tactics. We are highly individual we value self expression.
There was a cultural change within police departments during the
Fauci era. That cultural change was that cops were willing
to go out and do things that had been unthinkable
in American society. I think this woman responds very very
well and in a very level headed sense. Make sure
to make sure we're not sure.
Speaker 2: I think is that your account?
Speaker 3: I refuse to answer questions without my lawyer present, So
I really don't know how to answer that. Like I said,
with speech, this is America, and I agree with we're
just trying to see if it's you and we're not
talking to the right person.
Speaker 5: We want to go see the right pa. I help him.
So pretty much is just a statement that was made
as far as.
Speaker 1: The okay, so both cops or whatever white means, maybe
that of the cop, maybe I don't know, whatever white
with maybe some Eastern Europeans something in there. I don't know,
because I don't care. Because this is culture and this
woman comes from apparently it sounds like she's got a
New York accent. She comes from a culture that respects
free speech. She's respectful to these officers. But this exchange continues.
They quote what she said, and it's super, super scary,
super frightening.
Speaker 6: You know, says the guy who consistently calls for the
death of all Palestinians, tried to shut down.
Speaker 5: A theater for showing a movie that hurts his feelings
and refuses to stand up for the LGBTQ community in
any way, even leave the room when they vote, and
on related matters, wanting to.
Speaker 6: Know that you're all welcome clown face clown face confidence
pret you know.
Speaker 5: I'm not going to answer whether that's me or not.
Speaker 6: Okay, the concerning part I am not concerning for the
person who's posting it. We're just trying to revenge somebody
else getting agitated.
Speaker 5: Or or a green with the statement. We're not saying
it's true or not.
Speaker 6: That guy who consistently calls for the death of all
Palestinians that can probably say somebody to do something vadic. Well,
that's all we're here to talk about, and we wanted
to get your sided.
Speaker 1: It was you that posted that.
Speaker 5: I would think to refrain from posting things like that
because that can get something. I appreciate your concern. I
appreciate you coming out here. We're going to maintain my
Amendment rights to.
Speaker 1: Not to answer the question about what. I appreciate you
as well.
Speaker 5: Thank you, Take care.
Speaker 1: She comes from a culture of politeness, evident respect for
law enforcement, even when they're doing something unthinkable in America.
She didn't make a threat, she didn't get where anywhere
in near threatening. She expressed an opinion. So what culture
do these cops come from? Is it the race? It
is not so, Now do we hate cops. I don't,
but you know, when we began this, we talk about
what Satan wants. Satan wants people to see a badge
and hate the badge. He wants people to see a
mega hat and hate the person wearing it. He wants
people to see someone's skin color. Go oh, I bet
they're privileged. He wants others to see a different skin color.
Go band, They must be some bike thieves over there.
That person over there is a hook nose, and look
at that piece of white trash. That's what he wants.
When we know what the devil wants, we can do
the opposite. We can regard no one in the flesh.
This is what Jesus says to us. Regard no one
in the flesh, you know. In for Samuel, my wife
and I are we reading for Samuel, the first king
that they select because the Jewish people wanted a king,
because they wanted to be like other countries. They didn't say, hey,
you know what, we want a godly, humble, wise king
with great strategic insight, tactical excellence, able to hire people
smarter than he is, to protect our nation, first of all,
to make sure that we don't stray from God that
will respect the law, to work with the judges and
the prophets as in a cooperative sense. We want a
king so he can be like all the other nations.
So I think as a joke. I honestly think as
a joke. God said, hey, what's that guy? Is Saul?
This dude who thinks donkeys walk three days away when
donkeys really don't do that. Donkeys don't stray that far
from their water and holes in their known areas. So
let's get solved. He's tall and they make that reference
like five times. He was the tallest one, super handsome.
There you go, there's a king. And it's not long
before Saul has defined gods and Sama comes along and says, okay,
you're fired. There's gonna be another king, and they go.
Samon goes and he's looking at at the brothers of
David and the king. Not this guy. Not this guy.
YEA got to know someone else. And it's David Young.
He's out in the chep. He's out in the field
tending sheep. And Sama says this guy, and God said, no,
don't look at the flesh. I don't look at the flesh.
I look at the man within. The devil wants us
looking at flesh, at race, at badges, at hats. We
need to look at the inner character. We need to
remember that God looks at our inner character. Remember that
the devil wants us to do anything that can separate
us from God, such as developing a good steaming pile
of resentment against people because of unchangeable characteristics. Let's not
do that. This is the Todd Herman Shaw. Please go,
be well, be strong, be kind, Please make every effort
to walk in the lot of Christ. And I hope
that you, like me, get to spend time with your
primary culture, which should be your beloved family,
