Trees and trees more facts with Adam Curry for October 13 2021 it's Episode Number 68 hello everybody How you doing? We are back once again 14 days we're back on the system I'm Adam Curry here in the heart of Texas Hill Country and somewhere in Virginia Northern Virginia my friend on the other end ladies and gentlemen Mr. Moe Factz mo since I started playing this track I'm doing even better than I was doing mad fire fire. You know, you give you give me a good track like that. I'm into

it. I love that. I love it. It's good man. We have we have not spoken at all have we had we had like three text messages and in two weeks. I think that's about it. It's been crazy. So you've been busy. super busy, super busy. The job is getting mandated proof. You know, that kind of thing. And they're working the heck out of us. Really? Wait, wait, wait. Yeah, we got him for a little bit longer. Let's keep him as working real hard. Is that what's going on? Oh, man, of course.

But you know how it goes on with the thing in Texas. That's a good look. So we'll see how it goes. Oh, you mean The what? The Governor dabit? Yeah. Well, the fun thing about that is, of course, it's Southwest Airlines who have pilots walking off the job. We're calling in sick. They're headquartered in Texas. Okay. Yeah. So and the last I heard their CEO had said, All right, everyone's got to get vaccinated. Then this morning, that Monday or Tuesday morning,

that mandate came out. And now we'll see. Who knows? Who knows? It's you don't know. But I mean, it is what it is. In the meantime. Yes, we'll ratchet it up. Let's wind this up. Find out what the topic will be for Moe facts with Adam Curry, Episode Number 68. Ladies and gentlemen, nobody knows where it will stop except for Moe, he knows exactly what's going on the topic will be critical race theory. A much anticipated topic critical race theory. When it is when it isn't, do it

justice have a Wikipedia page. It is some people say it doesn't exist. So not a thing. It's not a thing. It doesn't exist at all, even though it has a Wikipedia page. And as a scholarly thing. I think is one of these things where people make it what they want it to be. So picking up off where we left off last time on the binary thinking tip. This is just like one of the battlegrounds, you know people are fighting Oh, this topic disappeared. It's big, very big. It's very big. He's right behind

the Cuf. And he knows it and in some people's mind, it might even be bigger. Depending on how you how you live, it's certainly one of the major topics of the school board meetings where people are just getting into the school board's face, you know, so it's it's definitely top of mind. We definitely that's gonna be an element of it. Um, I guess it's hard to tell you put your goggles on. Let's go ahead and get into number two.

Republicans are fanning the flames of a new culture war, claiming the teaching of critical race theory is a threat to our kids and to community relations. But this isn't just some abstract argument. They're actually pushing through legislation in state after state as we speak, legislation aimed at making sure it can't be talked about in schools, which isn't just dumb because critical race theory isn't taught in

schools to begin with. It's taught to law students in university, but it's also a complete violation of the First Amendment from a party that claims to be all about free speech. Joining me now is Kimberly Crenshaw, executive director with the African American policy forum. She's also a law professor at Columbia and UCLA host of the podcast intersectionality matters. She's the one who coined the phrase intersectionality and also co founded critical race theory.

Kimberly, it's a pleasure to have you on the show. Your African American policy forum is campaigning against these republican censorship campaigns. So I want to start by asking you to please explain what critical race theory actually is because Tucker Carlson and Mark Greene clearly don't have a clue. You

do. You helped found it. define it for our viewers, please. In the simplest of terms, well the simplest of terms and thanks for The opportunity critical race theory is the study of law and how it has been part of the infrastructure, from slavery to emancipation to segregation to today upon which racial inequalities have been based. Oh, that's interesting. Okay, so the the founder of critical race theory here, Kimberly, what's her name? Kimberly, cream Crenshaw

sheets. I did not know that this was that it had to do with law which reminds me of the book, The color of law. That's where it was birthed out of that, but it was birthed out of university. Yeah. And as you heard, Maddie say that's Mehdi Hassan. From msnbc. He says that it's only taught in college courses. Me I mean, universities. It's like, hold on. Wait, that's not No, no, that's definitely not all we're hearing it seems to be middle school and high schools and even lower grade

Elementary. Yeah, elementary schools as well. Um, but this is the thing. It's like, Oh, no, that that's, it's been this moving target. I had to lay this out front. I think what happened was that 1619 was supposed to be their original vehicle that they use to push this narrative and so he got some crazy rails. Yeah, sure did. So it's like, Okay, what can we dig in you know, and pick up critical race theory which in itself, is a is a offensive

term. And let me let me explain that when just the words all put together, when you hear critical that's alarming and it's urgent attention. Urgent, right? And then you throw racing anything yeah, and we we do have the race I saw that I picked up but we'll get to that later. We have already had it ready. racing thoughts from racing there? It's just it's just from time to time you just got to do that just I think

it's like in normal family life. It's like Could you please take out the garbage and just keep doing that? And then you have theory which theory just leaves everything up to debate? Yes. Like not it's not Chronicles about race, but it gets a theory. So when you throw all these things together, it gives people alarm just from the beginning of it and the way it's being pushed. And the title of this video I'm pulling this from off.

YouTube is called the truth about critical race theory co founder breaks down GOP gaslighting a hell of a title. Yeah. So we should be familiar with Miss Kimberly Crenshaw from intersectionality. This is a throwback clip from show 18 she wrote a hero where we covered the topic. intersectionality is just a metaphor for understanding the ways that multiple forms of inequality or disadvantage

sometimes compound themselves. And they create obstacles that often are not understood within conventional ways of thinking about anti racism or feminism or whatever social justice advocacy structures we have. intersectionality isn't so much a grand theory it's a prison for understanding certain kinds of problems. Okay, so that did not explain that did not help understand intersectionality and we had the same outcome was your 18 is the word salad. It

makes no sense. It's not really a theory and now they're doing the same thing with the critical. Let me ask you a question. So you said you know they the 1619 project, I got submarine and then they decided to go full on critical race theory. Who do you think they is in this case? Ah, that's a good question. Well, you you have the Black

Lives Matter ain't crew. Yeah. The Democrats which is our liberals have you want to say, which is using this as a major for lack of better word taunting is using You know, this keep this popcorn to 2022? Yeah, well, but but from an academic perspective, you know, it's not it's not the case that you know, some Democrats as well time to ratchet up critical race theory. That's not how you get stuff into school. This got to be a lot more. It's got to be

structural. You know, it's got to be it's got to be a part of the curriculum. I mean, that's which I guess means that it's just really really nastily corrupt all the way through. That's that's the point is it's a one of those things that can create a binary argument, and it works politically. It works through social social engineering. It Works you're seeing a lot of ways in these kind of things make occur organic first. Notice in a while as my my wife that critical race

theory, yeah, let's push that. Or since we already had Kimberly Crenshaw pushing the intersectionality it's just a natural Hey, I got this critical race theory I'll show you grab that for me. I've got some CRT over there. What because the thing is this thing was created back in the 80s. So it's like, it's nothing new. I mean, it's very, it's very, um, it's been around in the law circles for a while now. Yeah, so um, well, hopefully we'll we'll come to understand what that means. How it's been

around the law circles. So I guess this is where we find out that. I mean, I don't know I let it unfold Mo. I'm Ramallah. We go into the co founder. So we're gonna let her explain this to us like we're idiots. What it is, what it isn't, and what it's being used for. So let's go ahead and get into number four. It's it's basically an effort to think about, we have had commitments to equality since the 14th. amendment, yet our

reach has not realized itself in in real equality. So we're basically just asking questions, and looking at the way that law has been a conduit for racial inequality, and therefore what we need to do about law in order to bring us closer to the dreams that we have as a society. But let me be clear, this is not

about critical race theory. Ted Cruz knows what critical race theory is, and isn't the people who are trying to create this hysteria around critical race theory know what critical race theory is, or isn't what this is, is backlash politics, coming precisely at a moment where finally racial justice has become a majority Aryan interest on the part of Americans from

all races and all classes. So this is a way of pushing back against that, without saying that we're for racism, they can say we're against critical race theory, payments. This this is the founder of critical race theory. Yes. And she's, she's name checking Ted Cruz on I mean, so so she's just a political operative. She's full of crap. She's no idealist. Exactly. She's She's actually working for an organization. You

know. I thought I had it here. But I don't. But yeah, she's working in a political capacity and a professor, Will these professors like moonlight? Yeah, that's true. That's true. It's just so blatantly obvious. You know, when you when you do when you're at that level, calling out Ted Cruz, it's like, then you are not looking at a big picture of stuff. So you're doing some melt? If I'm not mistaken, she This was created at Harvard. Right?

And I think Ted Cruz is a law graduate from Harvard. It's not think she's saying, point. Oh, okay. Oh, no, he knows you still sound like he should know. Right? But what but critical race theory and the law and what Ted Cruz may or may not know, doesn't sound like what these parents are talking about at the school board meetings. doesn't sound very similar to Black Lives Matter. Aha, when you say Black Lives Matter is ABC, even people like no, no, no. This Yeah.

So it's these things that, um, can be used as a wedge for political gain for social, like I said, social social change. As you say, she said that, you know, race is front and center now. So they kind of got to seize on it. This is at Unity healing. I feel so good about it. Yeah. Come on in and use their force in unity and healing. So let's go ahead and get into part three. Yes, well said. And you mentioned Ted Cruz, like you and alumnus of Harvard Law School, he compared critical race theory

to the KKK. What is your response to that to Senator Cruz on that specific comparison? Well, you know, it would be laughable if it weren't so dangerous. And if it weren't so familiar, this is a mob mentality trying to willie horton eyes, racial justice. And we've seen it before we saw it right after the end of the Civil War, when the idea that racial equality was anti white racism was articulated by the president of United States, President Johnson who vetoed our civil rights, saying that it was

reverse discrimination. It took away from white people and gave to black people. But that wasn't the last time we saw it. We saw it during the civil rights movement when many white people said equality being forced to serve you violates my civil rights. So the idea that anti racism is anti White is tried and true. The playbook move. It used to be part of the Neo

nationalist, right? It's now moved to the center of the Republican Party on the heels of this so called hysteria around critical race theory. Wow, this is this woman is truly disappointing me. I was ready to really hear something really intelligent. something great about some academic thing I could look into this is just an operative as a tool for hysteria. She said, hysteria twice. She did. She said it twice. And that's what is causing on both sides.

Because in the minds of people that want to believe it's a good thing, it's like how do you not want to, you know, heal racism? Like, same thing with how do you not want to take the vaccine? You know, how do you not want to do your part? Or how do you not want to help? Yeah, back in the back, there's a binary that we've been talking about. Right? And on the other side, like, do you know what critical race theory is? And who's pushing it? Um, where it's

coming from out of Harvard? And my frustration is that if it's about law, and how law is not being used or being misused, these are the kind of people that were supposed to look to miss Crenshaw, Crenshaw, that you're supposed to be fighting the good legal fight, not pontificating about theories, you know, that don't mean a hill of beans. We should be actually getting change happen and then answers and then she brings up Willie Horton. I mean, is that even a relevant name anymore?

Does that still have no clue who that was? I didn't have time. Really? Oh, that's interesting. Oh, who willie horton means? Yeah, yes. What else? Yeah, Willie Horton. It's like a it's like a thing. Now his word was for a while. This was a guy who was convicted black guy serving a life sentence for murder. And oh, okay. Okay, now, they let him out right there on the on a furlough or get out hang out at the weekend or something. And he didn't come back. He committed armed robbery. Think rape.

Is that in Texas? That was in Texas. No, no, hold on. Let me take a look. Or Florida. Maryland, Maryland. Okay. Wait a minute. He was Yeah, Maryland. But he was he was when he was the beneficiary of a Massachusetts furlough program. So he might have been in Massachusetts. Totally got by me. Well, it was this this was a while ago. This was in the 80s Okay, well, like Mike said she's she's from the 80s so I mean, like I'm exactly not saying that I'm the best but I just see her very Miss from ATC a

well, exactly. And it's like okay, not very relevant, but I caught it. Okay, so well now this is why I'm gonna have to lean on you it because hysteria. You've been doing coverage of this topic. I think the gentleman's name is you're gonna help me with that. Yeah. Mateus. Does Smith. Okay, is that Dutch? He's Belgian actually which, which, and that's the Flemish side. So that's very close to Dutch. And we can understand. It's like American English and British English.

Got it? Got it. So yeah, keep following these clips and talking about free floating anxiety. And I think critical race theory definitely falls under one of these triggers for that so you can give your spiel on it and we'll get right into the clip. Yeah, I'll just I'll just give a little background on Mateus De Smet. He's a professor in psychology from Finn's University in Belgium he has a another degree in statistics.

hairball, don't worry about hairball and that's how he actually started becoming very interested in what was going on because he saw very quickly as a statistician having a master's degree in that, that the numbers and the graphs that they were showing at the beginning of the the corona Rona crisis that the they were full of crap, and they were making some very huge

assumptions and mistakes. And it took him by his own admission about six months until he figured out that Wait a minute, I know what's going on here we are in a state of what he calls mass formation and you can use the word formation as for a hysteria and he ends so the final thing I'll say so I don't spoil any of the clips is that this state is a hypnotic state.

It can be done by professionals in this case it was done by a number of factors can be done by professionals to a degree that this is often used in surgical settings and people can be hypnotized be in the same state that we're going to hear many people are and you can even cut them and they won't even feel it won't even know it. So it's a serious hypnotic condition. So you say under a spell? Oh, yeah. Totally under a spell? Yes, sir, you spell.

Before you start this next clip, I'll just like make make the point that Beyonce had a very famous song called information. Ah, right, right, right, right? Well, it well, in the context of mass formation, it means the same thing, you know, we're all standing in line, we're all we're all, we're all together doing the same thing where we've, we've, we've fallen into the ranks, I guess we can go and get into number six. free floating anxiety is the most painful psychological phenomena someone

can experience. So it's extremely painful, that leads up to panic attacks to all kinds of extremely painful psychological experiences. So what people want in the situation is something to connect their anxiety to, they are looking for an explanation for the anxiety. And now, if this free floating anxiety is highly present in a population, and the media provide the narrative, which indicates an object of anxiety, and at the same time, describe a strategy to deal with this object of

anxiety, then all the anxiety connects to this object. And people are willing to follow the strategy to deal with this object, no matter what the cost is, that is what happens in the beginning of mass formation. Then, in a second step, people start a collective and heroic battle with this object of anxiety. And then that way, a new kind of social bond emerges and a new and a new kind of sensemaking. Suddenly, life is

all directed at battling the object of anxiety. And in this way, establishing a new connection with other people is one of my favorite clips. You have the object of anxiety being race. And you have the solution being critical race theory. Yes. And how about the free floating anxiety? Which because that I think and and the beauty of critical race theory and people losing their shit over it? is I think they're also under some form of spell and mass formation.

combos nice yeah, I mean, that's that's the it's even information. You can have this back and forth dance, I would think, you know, saying like, you have two sizes fixated on the same object, can some people say, Well, this secure racism, why don't you want to do it? You know, that kind of thing? And it's like, well, do you have the other side, it's, well, I'm gonna push back against this naturally, just because just because Assad is pushing for it. So you brought up the point of

using statistics to manipulate people. So Maddie is gonna do a very fascinating trick with these numbers that he rose out from the economist. So let's go ahead and listen to him. But then I have a sub clip of just him stating the numbers once again. And history indeed it is, you with nearly a dozen books on race issues, including one literally called critical race theory, I want to put it in the mail to Ted Cruz's office.

There's no holding out this week from the economist, which found only 26% of Americans say they've heard a lot about critical race theory with an additional 38% saying they've heard a little of those a little over half say they have a good idea of what critical race theory is, or they think they do, and the majority view it unfavorably. If you take a look at the number of mentions, the term critical race theory is getting over on Fox News. It's gone through the roof in recent

months. How much does that worry you? How much does that tell you that this country is not in a good place, especially on the right to interrupt. I am so tired of people with British accents telling Americans that we suck. It's quite common now. f offline a, you know, I used to wonder a lot about how, during the end of reconstruction, people of color and people of goodwill understood what was happening. Did they know that African Americans were going to be completely disenfranchised and

not be able to vote for seven decades? Were they aware that violence was going to take hold in capitals throughout the south that they were going to be who's did the media participate in it? Were they believing some of the lies or failing to ask the questions failing to consider the source and this moment makes me get a sense of what what it must have been like lies being told people believing and people of goodwill being confused and not knowing what to do or what to make of it.

She's following the template and proud of it. You don't know it may you're confused. Yeah, if you don't email. And naturally, if you're confused, you just you haven't been taught yet. And we have to teach you. And once you once you're taught, then you understand. It's kind of like one of those things. But did you hear the numbers he wrote out and didn't make any sense to you?

Well, the I was distracted when he rolled out the numbers by saying they were from the economist and the economist, since ever since they got their new editor as been just one big woke heap a garbage as far as I'm concerned. So I can't I did not really hear the numbers.

And by design, you didn't, because I took just the number has rolled out of the numbers, and I put it in this little slump sub clip, and we can even play it like two three times to listen to the actual number that he's referring to. There's new polling out this week from the economist, which found only 26% of Americans say they've heard a lot about critical race theory with an additional 38. A lot, a lot only when he percent has only heard a lot about that move. About 20.6% right now, okay.

Yeah. Okay. 26% is heard a lot. Okay. All right. say they've heard a lot about critical race theory with an additional 38% saying they've heard a little Oh, wait, wait, whoa, whoa. So let's add those two numbers up. Okay. We're well over 50%. Yep. have heard something. Yes. Okay. All those a little over half say they have a good idea of what critical race theory is. Start. Okay. That's those 54 Yeah. They say they have a good idea what critical race theory is,

how can you Okay, now, um, is that 54%? Or the 38? Or the 26? Because he said, though, I think the 38 Okay, so now we're down half of 38. Have a good idea. So that's what 19% roughly 20 say 20 rounded up. Okay, now, we talked about 20% of people. Yeah. Okay. Now I'm just saying he's doing a subset of a subset of a subset, of course. Great critical race theory is what they think they do. And the majority view it unfavorably. Okay, now the majority of the 54% of the 38%.

Yeah, I should actually look at those numbers. I don't know if he's explaining it, right. But it's what I'm saying is that this the way he's delivering these numbers out, as she's saying 38%. And now those 45 mean, 54% have a good idea. And half of those of that 45. Excuse me, half of the majority of that 54% of the 38%. It's like we Yeah, you can say this. more confusing.

He could have just said homina homina homina. And it wouldn't have mattered if people didn't get it when he said it like this, and they won't get it anything else he said who fully in context in what he saw, he surmises from his data.

There's new polling out this week from the economist, which found only 26% of Americans say they've heard a lot about critical race theory with an additional 38% saying they've heard a little of those a little over half say they have a good idea of what critical race theory is, or they think they do and the majority view it unfavorably. Yeah, it's, I think, I think the whole point is blahdy, blahdy, blahdy, blahdy, blah, blah, blah, blah. The majority of you

what unfavorably? That was the message the point that's right. Yeah, wish, what they use these numbers to make it sound official. Make you Smith's house, make them sound smart. You will feel subconsciously dumb, because you couldn't follow that riddle of a word problem, and rightly so. Um, because it's like, let me break out the pain in the pad and actually figure out if I want to really understand. If I'm listening, empathetically, I'm, I'm trying to understand

what he's saying here. But you really ran me into a circle. And that's by design. Because once again, Eclipse Did you were presenting our mass hysteria, it talks about both bogus statistics. I'm a professor in clinical psychology at against University and I'm also I also have a master's degree in statistics. But in this crisis, I've been taking the perspective of mass psychology, yes, indeed, in the beginning of the crisis, I have been studying the statistics and the numbers. And actually, I

noticed that they were often blatantly wrong. And at the same time, people continue to believe in it and to go along with with with the mainstream narrative, and that was why I started to do to study it. Rather from from the perspective of mass psychology and because I knew that mass formation has huge, huge impact on individuals intelligence and cognitive

functioning. And if I had the feeling that this was the only thing that could explain why highly intelligent people started to believe, and, and unattractive and the numbers that were, in many respects, utterly absurd. I liked what you're doing here I like the comparison between lockdowns and mandates and masks and, and hysteria and Black

Lives Matter or critical race theory and hysteria. And just so you know, I know Mateus he reached out to me we have contact so if we ever want him to, you know, we can we could certainly suggest that he might want to do a little analysis of, of critical race theory or BLM or just the hysteria, he might be interested in that.

I think it's I think that'd be a wonderful idea because what we're seeing is, as you mentioned before, and kind of foreshadowing the all these topics are finding their way to school board meetings and town hall meetings. And they're

having the same kind of response. Um, so now we have to go to the other side, which being Fox News, and they have and just in complete transparency, Carol Swain, who she works for the 1776 Commission, and she's a former Princeton professor, and what she's gonna do so you have this 16, skinny 1619 from Harvard critical race on one side, and you have this on the other side, and she's gonna talk about Biden and him promoting the US non existing CRT CRT group.

Well, yesterday, we reported on the Department of Education's handbook for reopening schools, including a link to a radical activist group that wants to send white teachers to anti racist therapy. Yeah, we saw that we said, What's that about? Well, now the administration backtracking, hey, Department of Education spokesperson telling Fox News quote, the department does not endorse the recommendations of this group, the abolitionist teaching

network, nor do they reflect our policy positions. It was an error in a lengthy document to include this citation. Well, here with her reaction, Dr. Carol Swain, former professor at Princeton and Vanderbilt University's and vice chair of the reconstituted 19, or 1776. commission, good morning to you. Good morning. Good morning. So Dr. Swain, they say it's an error. But is it really an error, they had to

intentionally go in and put that link on page nine. So this is a this is a guidebook to reopening our schools reopening because of COVID. And on page nine, there's a link, you click on it, and it directs you to this website. Well, if it's an era, it's one of many that the Biden administration has made. Ever since day one, it has aligned itself with radical groups. It is pushed critical race theory.

And what I believe is happening is that Democrats are realizing that this is a losing issue for them. Wait a minute, so they put a link into the apalis abolition abolitionists teaching network network, they put it in there, how to reopen schools guidance for COVID Wow, I'm looking at the I put in the show notes of course. Wow. Oh, I will you know, when I heard that, that abolitionists teaching network, I had to go follow the network. So I find

Mr. Kevin Melrose where he's not famous. He's not famous, make clear but he's a big supporter and believer in the abolitionists teaching network and they're what they believe and he goes on to speak on talking points by Dr. Benita l love. And she's like the one of the founders of the abolitionist teaching network. Now I am my empathetic space which you're very good at. You're good at it mo you, you can you got a lot of empathy. I try. I really try. But I will not call cavea cook because of

my empathy for him. But if you had to, if it ever was one, and I'm not saying this because I'm just saying that the way I will be covering this on lost tapes to dive a little deeper. Okay, I got all you got to do yes, that'll be next Wednesday, everybody next Wednesday at eight o'clock. Yeah, so but we're gonna get into being a co conspirator. Notice that excuse me say it right. The coconspirators guide to abolitionists teaching all quotes and credit go to Dr. Bettina l love. Thank you.

Hello, my name is Kevin Melrose. I'm a middle school social studies teacher with Indianapolis public schools, and I'm here to talk with you today about abolitionists teaching. abolitionists teaching is an idea brought forward by Dr. Bettina l love, who's a professor at the University of Georgia and one of the co founders of the abolitionist teaching network. Now, what is abolitionists teaching?

abolitionists teaching is the practice of working in solidarity with communities of color, while drawing on the imagination, creativity, refusal, remembering, visionary thinking, healing, rebellious spirit, boldness, determination and subversiveness of abolitionists to eradicate injustice in and outside of schools. abolitionists, teaching

works hand in hand with anti racist teaching. Now, all the ideas I'm discussing today, I've gathered from this book, it's absolutely incredible, and I highly encourage all of you to read it. What I will be discussing today, we're going to be focusing on what people that look like me with the similar status and privilege can do today to become abolitionists. abolitionist teaching means putting something on the line in the name of justice, wanting dark folks to thrive and giving

up power and positions in order for dark folks to do so. The work of recognizing and checking white emotionality is done before you went to dark spaces. white folks have to get well on their own terms before they engage with abolitionist teaching. Before before discussing, I need to hear the last 10 seconds I just got I gotta go I gotta write down some of these terms. abolitionist teaching means putting something on the line in the name of justice, wanting dark folks to thrive and giving

up power and positions in order for dark folks to do so. The work of recognizing and checking white emotionality is done before you went to dark spaces. white folk have to get well on their own terms before they engage with abolitionists teaching. Oh, my head hurts. Okay, dark books. Dark books. No dark folks. I said dark books he said dark dark dark dark folks. These aren't Who the hell says dark folks you I'm telling you kV I look heavy come close. If you're

listening. This Come on. You ever say dark folks around dark folks? You go get your ass kicked. I don't know what they teach you over the network. But don't come around. So called black people saying dark folks how dark dark spaces. Yeah. And then and then. And then just to balance it. White emotionality? Woohoo. I think I had some of that for breakfast. And what do you hear? This is the this is that teaching that that violence administration is pushing. on me.

It's really phenomenal. Because what he said was nothing. It was just a whole bunch of words and descriptions and then throw in dark spaces and dark folks and white emotionality. What is one level deeper? Is Well, you thought doing the work. You thought we know doing the work was going to do it? No, no, no, no, no, you have to go a level. That was just the beginning that was just training wheels, right, you have become deeper and really relinquish your

power. Which if you're giving your power away, that means you still have power. And that's what these people don't seem to understand. But what they want to do is not seem like the white Savior, which has became a trope or I mean, like in these movies, where like the white teacher comes to the black neighborhood here but it's also true. It's a cliche, but it's because it's true.

That's what that's what they're trying to avoid. They're trying so they're like I need you think that's real it's kind of like the thing with like, when people were like going vegan is like you know, that's I have vegan non GMO organic hand raised he was always one level deeper with with how real it is. But it still you come from a place that you had to give me something I can't do it for myself. And that's what made it just totally misses him. It totally it totally misses Coniston is to

say before you go to darks what awaited word dark spaces? I think i think i think that's if you go into clubhouse and then you got to hit a special code Your turn left and then you get to the dark space that dark people in dark space and you know how I feel about words yeah well dark First of all, folks I hate folks. Yeah, folks would exit without x. Men trying to get they tried to get out in the road out on black folk. No. fo LX Yes.

Now. I don't know if he said folks The Met way of the non binary non offensive way or if you stay with the tradition give me more from this guy. Give me more from this guy. Let's go ahead and get more conspiratorial Sue. Now you may be thinking to yourself, Kevin, I am an ally. I believe in social justice for everyone. Wow, that is great. It's simply not enough today. We cannot just be our eyes. We as white people must be co conspirators. Okay, allies do

not put anything at stake. And in today's day and age, that is simply not enough. blackness is not a condition that needs saved. White people that are trying to go into the classroom to save black and brown children are totally misguided and have no idea what these students actually need. The definition of a co conspirator is to stand in solidarity and confront anti blackness, a co conspirator functions as a verb and not now, co conspirators can also be men who understand their privilege

and work to challenge and undo the patriarchy. However, we cannot have these conversations about racism without talking about whiteness, the time consuming and serious critique and reflection of one's socio cultural heritage, which includes identities related to race, ethnicity, family

structure, sexuality, class, abilities, and religion. Taken side by side with a critical analysis of racism, sexism, white supremacy and whiteness is the groundwork of coconspirators teachers who say they're deeply concerned about social justice or that they love all their children or I don't see color but cannot say the words Black Lives Matter have no real understanding what social justice is and what it truly means to love, find joy and appreciate their students in their students culture.

I'm mo you're the right guy to ask. Yes. Are you do you know of any dark folks with an axe? Who would hear this guy and go oh yeah, spot on. No, I don't know of any because he's

like, Oh yeah, that's what we need. We need white people who are co conspirators and they're clued in yes that's that's who was I was reading it he's in a deep I mean, it's like it's like he's he got he feels he got invited to the cookout and he can and he's a PE he knows what to say now I don't know it's very uncomfortable I

study and in like, he just verbatim spills out. Whatever these this network is teaching in this is this is their ideal product that they want to have on the backside of this, which for me, personally, and I mean, if there may be other I'm sure there's others out there like that. It still smacks of you think I am a victim? Yes. Even though Yeah, Max that you're a white Savior. It's like I acknowledge that my white Savior and the fact that I acknowledge that it doesn't make me a white

savior now right? Like what it's like to have a store on their website. I need to see if they got any cooler hoodies with something stupid on it. Oh, yeah. You can get to any of the abolitionists teaching network is all in the pan African colors. Interesting. Okay. Yeah, the red the black, the orange the black. The green, of course has to be has to be on on message on point. Yeah. So he what Kevin needs to realize and I'm speaking from a place I want

to help I know I didn't I didn't call Octavia cook. What I'm saying is, if you want it to catch somebody in that role, he would probably you probably even totaled around right? Because he just doesn't want to be a fit and I get it. And he's probably been browbeating so bad What does he do? What What is his vocation? What does he do? He's so he's a he's a middle school social studies teacher. Ah, no wonder. No wonder no wonder these parents are so pissed off.

This is like I said, this is the product that they're trying to create. To destroy the patriarchy. He said herself. It could be an ally, you must say Black Lives Matter. And what cabbie doesn't realize is, the Black Lives Matter brand is so tattered in us and marred. Whenever you say that, no matter if you're saying it's always better, or boots on the ground. You're going to people here and in the binary world, they hear

Marxists. And for that, I have Patrice colors. one of the founders of Black Lives Matter. addressing issues a Marxist is not so y'all asked I am ready to answer. Am I a Marxist? Let's get into it. Hey everybody, my name is Patrice colors. I am the co founder of Black Lives Matter. I'm also the executive director of the Black Lives Matter global network, and welcome to my youtube channel. We're gonna talk about something that I have

been accused of over the last several months. It's been intense at times it's been hilarious at times, but I feel like I need to set the record straight. Am I Marxist I've seen a lot of y'all comments like backed by God them right here do not fall for their trick. They're pushing a communist agenda inside this is really funny. So despicable how Marxist have infiltrated the civil rights movement and turned it

into a monster. She is trying to burn the whole system down admitted train Marxists and blacklist better co founder purchase colors send strongly worded letter to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, demanding they bow to their black liberation domestic terror agenda. we warn you this was coming. And now let's hear the truth. Colors is a Marxist, all right. I mean, let's, let's just talk about it. Am I a Marxist? I'm a lot of things. I do believe that Marxism is a philosophy that I

learned really early on in my organizing career. We were taught to learn about the systems that were criticizing capitalism. We were taught to understand why they were philosophies that were criticizing capitalism. Is she walking back that she said she was a trained Marxist and proud of But is she walking that back? No, she's walking in a circle because he went around is read all the comments, saying basically that she's a self admitted Marxist, which says yes, well trained Marxist. I

didn't I feel like I need to play the clip. Because we we've addressed it enough. But then she goes through these initiatives, the Kamala laugh. Yeah. Well, and and very inappropriately, yeah. Yeah. Right. Like, it's like, it's such a joke. How can these people believe on a Marxist cuz I said, I'm a Marxist. With this is the mind loop. And then she goes around? Yeah, I am. No, I shouldn't say I'm a Marxist, which, you know, I believe in Marxism,

I got the 39. I got the 39 second clip before saying. I think that the criticism is helpful. I also think that it might I think of a lot of things. The first thing I think, is that we actually do have an ideological frame, myself. And Elisa, in particular are trained organizers. We are trained Marxists. Okay, I heard that. But there is a joke. It's like, I don't know how people can think I'm a Marxist by me just saying it. I don't. We're pretty racist. Have you to hold me to my words, I

don't even know what a Marxist is probably. Right. But when you say you're attacking capitalism, that makes my ears perk up, because I don't know about everybody else. But I enjoy capitalism, when it's in its right form. And of course, always criticize what we have now as some kind of corporatism or Yes, in the sense of, the harder I work, the more I make, you know, when it works that way, when it works that way, then then it's

true capitalism. But if you give me what I have now, compared to Marxism, I can't go that route. Because I know what comes with it. Um, so yeah, so that's when she lost a lot of people. And that's why she had to go on her YouTube channel, and address this topic. But I think poor kV doesn't realize when you use and I say that, like I said, with empathy now, I don't think he realized when you say Black Lives Matter, that's a loaded term now gets, it's no longer it's no longer on Vogue.

Now is that once you attach that were critical race theory. Is this is toxic is toxic. Yeah. It's very, it's like radioactive is like, you know, we went for 1619. Black Lives Matter. We got to get rid of Kevin and Kevin, he's no good. He's got to go. They screwed it up. I mean, cabbie is a product of what they've created. I mean, this is you're looking at what they pointed out what they want on the backside of the training. So with that said, let's go

ahead and get into the final clip. We can't be. We cannot have conversations about racism without conversations about intersectionality. When teachers shy away from intersectionality, they shy away from ever fully knowing their students, humanity and the richness of their identities mattering cannot happen if identities are isolated and students cannot be their full selves. Fighting oppression is not just a hack. Hash tag. The real work is

personal, emotional, spiritual, communal. It is explicit with a deep and intense understanding that loving blackness is an act of political resistance. And it is a fundamental aspect to teaching. darkling I'd like to interrupt I just want to, I want to hear what I said there again communal, it is explicit with a deep and intense understanding that loving blackness is an act of political resistance. Loving blackness is an act of political resist resistance.

Hmm but what he's starting to clip off with intersectionality Yes. who coined the term intersectionality is saying people have this critical race theory that was the Crenshaw lady exactly, it's the holding of the door here black people hold the door for critical race theory. And in that we're gonna teach a whole bunch of intersectionality and if you're a cisgendered male of the of the dark kind Oh, I've learned

a new term. I've learned a new term it's just what we are as far as I know sis het brown super straight yeah that's that's what I mean. If you wanted to find me I'm super straight right? So in the in the critical race circles you are sis hat which is almost like an epithet. It's almost like a slur. I only got one badge only got my dark badge

you know more bad news for you. Only bad women women are you are you midget Are you under four feet tall because you can get an extra belt person I know enough midgets I'm okay saying that they they'll try and beat me up privilege on me That's right let's continue with but that's how ridiculous it can get is now okay now it's intersection now you see how quickly he slipped? Oh right.

from one to the other and that's that's how I was gonna go and it's like how do you want to attack the patriarchy that's a no for me you want attack capitalism? That's a no for me and then you do the sleight of hand from dark dark topics to a and that's that's very Can you better be careful I'm just saying I'm just saying this once again for anybody that may be listening. When you say sharp people don't be like oh, close the marquee. Yes night yeah. Please do not use that term.

Please. Please I beg you. But now back to the Marxism Well, let me let me let me play the whole we didn't play the whole kV closer. Oh, sorry. Yeah, no, I interrupted. So I'm going to start from the beginning so we can get the full effect of the full kV effect. We cannot have conversations about racism without

conversations about intersectionality. When teachers shy away from intersectionality, they shy away from ever fully knowing their students, humanity and the richness of their identities mattering cannot happen if identities are isolated and students cannot be their full selves. Fighting oppression is not just the hashtag. The real work is personal, emotional, spiritual, communal. It is explicit with a deep and intense understanding that loving blackness is an act

of political resistance. And therefore it is a fundamental aspect to teaching dark kids. Only after unpacking and interrogating whiteness, white teachers, really all teachers must unpack how whiteness functions in their lives, then they can stand in solidarity with their students communities for social change. We're now going to transition to what social studies teachers like myself can do to become

abolitionists, teachers. And that all starts with pedagogical pedagogy should work in tandem with students own knowledge of their community and grassroots organizations to push forward new ideas for social change, and not to just be a tool to enhance

test scores or grades. pedagogy regardless of its name is useless without teachers dedicated to challenging systematic oppression with intersectional social justice many public and charter schools have centered this idea of character education and it has replaced civics education however character education is anti black oh really wish that goes into respectability politics? Like when you when you try to teach people you know West respectable

or not. That's that's completely racist. But the interrogation of whiteness, like these are these terms. People from the other side of the binary coin look at it it's like, you want to interrogate white people? Hmm, yeah, I mean, I wish that has his own imagery of black spotlight there swinging where we go in the forest. Yeah. That kind of thoughts. Oh, by the way, that this guy How old is he? He can't be older than 2829

kick he doesn't look very old at all. I mean, he's probably fresh out of college, maybe four or five years. So this is this is it? This is the social studies. Now, of course, the problem which I'm recognizing now is that what he's saying and and all these things it is it is not critical race theory. So when people say critical race when Ted Cruz says critical race theory Yeah, and everyone who was doing this gonna say you have no idea what you're talking about this like

critical race theory, because it's not is just evil. Lame is lame. It's not good. It's not perfect. It's perfect because it's not what the topic is because we actually say that word and go read the book. It's a law theory. Yes, but the way they're selling it to the middle schools and elementary schools and high schools, as this rethinking of race think saying things everything through a racist or racial lens, almost a racist, a racial lens. In this do that it's like you have to admit that

you're racist. Going back to white fragility gotta start you gotta gotta atone the white man got a tone right off the bat. Right? Which means not even atonement because we know what that means as well because you can't force a town man if he's not a person has to want to atone your mate like if I want to do this Oh hold on a second of the white people who I know who are completely into this mode they really do want to atone they really do feel the guilt they they in fact do interrogate

themselves on this they do workshops. This we believe he has a lot of people who are doing that and they're very nice. I think there's also a lot of people I've heard talk in social settings when they talk a big game but are they going to go sign up for the you know the for the course now? That but Oh, yes. Oh, so important kit? Yeah, me, Sam, you want to be a real ally. I mean, not an ally, because he said you need to be a co conspirator. Allah is not

enough. All you people out there with you just doing the talk. It's time to walk the walk, it's time to put something on the line can be said it, you have to put something on the line, like your name on a check. You're saying Yeah, handed out but that's what they want. And that's the whole point I want. I want to try and get something out before I forget. Or at least before it passes. So and I think this is a true scenario because I used to hang out back in the Austin days with the Obama bots.

And so I you know, and I was accused of very early on years ago, less 66 and a half years ago by Professor Pennebaker, who was at one of these dinners and he's a big fan of his work he does the performative that's his that's his big body of work. And he and his wife are there well we're just sitting there saying well you know you have white privilege and I'd never heard of this. So what are you talking about so obvious to these

people? They they are so racist without knowing it. Here's how I perceive it so they'll talk these big games always so important and then there will be a name and it'll be someone you know it's not going to be kV it'll be you know, either like a Patrice collars or I can I can actually just go down here let's see. I can just go to the Apple abolitionists teeth abbis hard to say for me abolitionists teacher network and just look at our people. And let's see we have we have let's just grab one

we've got Ashley she her hers. activists and residents so the way it would go there's dinner parties. I met Ashley she her hers and she's the actress in residence at the abolition she's so impressive. She is I mean she is she's just oh my god you have to meet her that I'm doing my Becky voice and so they will take a person a dark person and they will and they elevate them and then and it's almost like a worshipping of you know this is oh my goodness she smells so good. Yes. Oh, we all can learn

so much from her. And I've always it's gives me the creeps when people do that. I've set a term I don't know if I coined or not, but not call that conspicuous. Consciousness. conspicuous. conspicuous consciousness. Okay. Right. So conspicuous consumption is when you buy things for people to know that you have money that to know that you have Well, I'm gonna buy the yes versus the words virtue signaling in a way of right but what what

you're saying is the conspicuous curse on consciousness. is I'm gonna go find Ashley and put her into my circle. Yeah, that way I can let other people know and like I said virtue signaling is one of those terms. And like I said, I don't use those terms because it is it has it has its own meaning now it's not actual

meaning I agree. Yeah, I agree. Right? So when you say conspicuous consumption consciousness is your want to be conscious so people can know that you're conscious you know of our you're down, you know, for the calls that kind of thing. So right. And by the way, my family my whole family is like this. All white, extremely upper class, either political or in intelligence services. And they're not racist. I know my family, but it's just insincere. I know, they don't really mean it is pre emptive.

It's worse than that, right? It's pre it means pre emptive is, excuse me, is Excuse me, is pre emptive in the fact that before I even that notion, or it can be thought that I'm right, let's let me let you know right away. Yeah, right. Let me get the book man on white fragility book laying on the coffee table. Let me put the Black Lives Matter. Yeah, we're on. I was on Megyn Kelly today. And of course, right off the bat I named check mo facts. You know what I felt like saying like,

No, I have I have a black friend. I have one black friend. By the way. I laid the black clean white clean on Megyn. Kelly, she loved it. We were talking about Merkel. Merkel. Okay. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, you gotta hear this. It was it was dynamite. It was like Moe facts all the way you'll love it. That's the that's the thing, though. is is is it pre emptive? Or is out of fear? Or is it just out to be true? empathy that you want to understand somebody? And that's what we do here, right?

You come here, seek first to understand then to be under. And I don't think it's out of empathy to understand people. I remember my uncle called me one day. And he was, you know, he was he was an ambassador. And he was, you know, all kinds of, you know, in Korea. I mean, he's CIA. He's been around, right. So he's been an interesting situation. And he's, he's way retired. This is maybe 1015 years ago. He calls me up, said, Adam, I got a you know, he was working for some think tank, the

Korea Society of assurance of front for something else. And he was, he's the president of the Korea Society. Did you know Adam, I'm going to be talking to some inner city youth. And I really want to be able to connect with them. And I guess he was calling me like MTV guy and maybe have some hip hop tips for him or something. He says, so you know, should I let them know that I for years, I walked around with an Uzi strapped to my arm and would that connect with them? I was speechless

small. I was fucking speechless. Only if you held it sideways. Yeah, exactly. If you if you can do like gangster like that, that you'll connect with otherwise stay away from that. That's why we have to do what we do here is to be empathetic. Because like all these people mean when they mean Well, yes. He doesn't mean you know, but when you go by in airy, it's like either Are you giving a barring your option? Or you you're a racist? Co conspirator. It's like, okay, yeah. Well, I

don't want to be a racist, so I had to be a co conspirator. And that's why what happened to ally what happened to ally Why don't cuz you don't have anything on the mind. If you just ally you're just talking to Tom. I hope you got it. Yeah, you gotta give some of that privilege which I don't understand how you do that. Let me here's a quarter share of my privilege. Yeah, exactly. You want to wear that around I don't

miss is still walking the walk me still talking to talk. But it's just I'm willing to if I'm if I'm pushed to it, I'll put something on the line. But what shows me is when you hear communist and Marxism and the reason why that is, I have a clip here. It was actually was an ad from msnbc from one, Melissa Harris Perry, on who owns kids. We have never invested as much in public education as we should have. Because we've always had kind of a private notion of

children, your kid is yours and totally your responsibility. We haven't had a very collective notion of these are our children. So part of it is we have to break through our kind of private idea that kids belong to their parents, or kids belong to their families and recognize that kids belong to whole communities. Once it's everybody's responsibility and not just the households, then we start making better investments. All your kids belong to us. Yeah. Interesting.

In NES das that was an old clip that comes I miss her. I miss her. She She, although no joy read is even more fun but I do miss. Mister she was wrong optics. Oh, no kidding. I was with you. Yeah, no, she was definitely and she and she was she was because they had to go next this big conspicuous consciousness. It's like, well, we can't have Melissa Harris Perry out there. You know, she's awful, fair skinned. Dark person, really dark, dark spirit that joy read as.

Yeah, so that's that's where you see this kind of shift. And it's in this bar. It's like I said it's a conscious decision by whoever's making the calls. But that's what troubles me. And that's what troubles a lot of other people when you hear this talk of your parents, your kids don't belong to you. We can teach your kid Well, we want to there's a heated gubernatorial race in Virginia right now. Yes. And it's your backyard.

And what was there some some scandal the guy said something or give us a rundown? Yeah, he's basically saying the same thing that she said that we could teach her? Well, it's our job to teach your kids what? On what they need to know, not the parents. And it's like a hit ad that they're running right? Wrong verbatim. But it's the same thing. It's like, we know better than you. Um, the scary thing is they mean it.

Yes. Yes. And and that's why you see what's happening at the school board meetings of, I mean, look at California about not asleep over and COVID. But if somebody can tell you, your kids can't come to school unless they have the shot. I mean, like where does it stop it now of course, we had immunization and those kinds of things of that nature. But it is, the binary thing is I'm gonna jab it in your eye, you know, so I'm gonna make you. You're saying fold and show you who has the real power

and these power. Okay, exactly. All of these moves every same would cavies doing? It's supposed to come across as now you can do some stuff. You can work on it, you can help you co-conspirator. But if you don't give you say no, if you say no. You say yes. I'm nice cabbie. I'll make me mad. cavies. Exactly. He got less spicy there at the end to me if you notice his tone change.

So that I'm just going back because my head was kind of filled with it, because I know that Megyn Kelly thing at home is important is because this was about Sharon Osborne, which to me, that's how I got to the Oprah thing because you know, it's more than just the n m five M and you know, ratings frokost that they're stirring up. But they had some so you know, Sharon Osborne, he got in a fight because she supported Piers Morgan, so she was supporting racist. And then

what's the Cheryl, what's the girl's name? The woman's name? I know you're on the target. Cheryl? Cheryl. Cheryl. I think it's Sheryl Underwood. Underwood. Yes. Underwood. Yeah, sure. So then they had a recording of her and Sharon Osborne in her dressing room. And Gosh, I wish I had that. I mean, I only heard it because I was listening to the show, where she says to share knowledge when

you have to understand we are under enormous pressure. If there's anything that even sniffs of racism, if we don't call it out, then then we get a cost that on the street. And I thought that was an important thing, because it's easy to hate Cheryl for what she did. I humanized her in that moment. I said, Okay, I don't think you're very intelligent that you just

going to let that happen. But Wow, when you're talking about your career, because, you know, people could could cancel her easily, and it seems like that's a real thing. And the ones that are really getting cancelled are the ones on their own side. We sell with Rachel Nichols over ESPN, fame. Tape. And these tapes, these emails, I don't know if you don't keep up with sports, but Jon Gruden on the Raiders coach. Yeah, they got him up out of the office of emails and the first

email he sent a guy had big lips and people were crying on TV. Oh my god. And it's such a racial trope. It's like the same big black lips I mean I don't know you say you have big lips cuz he's black. Or they just say that he had big lips I don't understand. I don't I don't get it either way. It's like Well first of all, they wanted him out for some reason because this doesn't happen just this is just like oh he stumbled across

some old stuff he said they wanted him out. I know what was going on and why but I just got to show you that this is how they're digging up emails and emails. He wouldn't even if he wasn't in coaching in the NFL at the time, but then they came back the the big lips didn't give him some a found some homophobic Yeah.

And is there an end goal to this? Do you think that it's well let's, you know, let's clear some people out of the way and what and we can move in it because it doesn't seem like that's actually happening which is a side sidebar conversation. I think with Jon Gruden situation they used him to get the team to Vegas and now the NFL no longer needs him and the razor Raiders are the bastard child of the NFL I understand that ownership al Davis when baby just what was it when baby winter just when my

dad would kill me cuz that's his favorite team. If I got that quote wrong, but I think it's when baby when, if I'm not mistaken, um, but he was the owner and president of the AFL CIO, the Raiders have always been a redheaded stepchild of the NFL when they merged. Okay, so this is gonna sound stupid. So the Raiders are now

in Vegas. Yes, okay. Now because they moved from Oakland, Oakland like it was a stronghold of support for these teams they brought they brought Gruden and smooth it over kind of like the Barclays Jay Z thing right? We need somebody with you know, sway with the crown right? He was a handsome handsome looking white coach,

right? He just fit the Raiders mo this tough guy like toughest nails guy yeah he got into Vegas now they got a good foothold in Vegas like now we got to get rid of this guy and if we do it to the writers you know wow they could have they could have just asked him to leave seem severe Why do you want to destroy a guy?

Well you still got NFL still has to remind people that they're woke they'll know they'll know what probation you as a web work probation everybody what probation you're saying you gotta let let them know that we still we still are still Excuse me. You have to come over here and talk to mo fax your parole officer. So see we started. Let's go okay. 16. So let me set this Right, right, quit. So this is again, this is Kimberly Crenshaw, and she's talking to joy read this time, oh, it's

gonna be a party party. She let her hair down. Like she couldn't do it Maddie, but they're gonna discuss critical race theory is explained neither, as explained as neither Marxist nor racist by the leading scholar Kimberly Crenshaw, who co developed the framework of the study and coined this term. Some of you may be wondering, what's the deal with the GOP freakout over critical race theory. It's everywhere, and was even used as a GOP call to arms at a conservative Christian conference last week.

The old Marxism used economics to gain control the new Marxism. The new Marxism uses identity politics. And the result is something that looks nothing like America. There's no reason to believe that this new Marxism will result in anything but what the old Marxism resulted in critical race theory is racism, appearance. And it should be rejected by every American of every race. We tell you right now, critical race theory is bigoted. It is a

lie. And it is every bit as racist as the Klansmen and white sheets. Okay, but here's the thing. None of this is random. This is the result of the highly manufactured strategy created by season's political operatives, looking for the perfect wedge issue to take back power, somebody to combat the energy of the multiracial coalition that took Georgia and something to replace blue lives matter since January 6, expose that slogan as a sham conservatives in Congress note and started chattering

which was then ingested into the feeder system of Fox News. The tagline disseminated and the war against critical race theory took off. Roof chatter, you know, in your system, you know what I really like, because I see this all day long part of my job on Fox, they're playing msnbc on MSNBC, they're playing Fox on CNN, they're playing both. They are, they're in the drain, and they're circling, and they're all going and no one's watching this crap anymore.

Which is great for us, but also sad if they go away. Because we do need the entertainment. But this is this is this that when you're blaming your colleagues, you imagine your colleagues over another station, I mean, that's dumb, it's petty. And that's all I've got this critical race theory and these binary terms are the

rating drivers. So they have to get involved in it and it works for the politicians like Because it does get I mean like when you hear critical race theory I mean, I have to say on the right it's a scary term for them to use like, Oh, you don't want that car that CRT you know that critical race theory? Oh no, it's it's totally disingenuous the way they're playing into it. And now I understand the Ted Cruz thing. So they said they've got the the critical race can and pointed at

Cruz is nuts. This is gonna blow him up. And that's part of Texas, Texas they think is in play, you know, they're doing all kinds of Democrats are doing all kinds of things in Texas, they're really trying to turn it blue. So taken out, Ted Cruz would be I guess, something that they think is important, because that's what they're doing. Yes. The problem is, when you start going into the schools, that's going to be a major problem. So

Well, yeah. Because it's not about politicians. It's parents, it's parents who are standing up it's way beyond Ted Cruz. Right? And this is they're just latching on to the momentum on the ground. Yeah, yeah, of course. They see the same thing with the media, the media is latching on to all the critical race theory in in title is Yeah, it's gonna be a big, big, big winner with the writings. You're right. Good point. I mean, like I said, and it just keeps everybody in the fervor to 2022

that's all intended for that Yeah. Right. I mean, it gives you an sob story to talk about outside of COVID right I mean, like it's like people get COVID fatigue so then we go back to the race you got to have something that nothing else

really talked about I mean to be honest with you. So these are two topics that they've chosen to be the big deals for 2022 so now we got to go back to your clips and now this is leaders know this you want to set this up or you know Yeah, yes well this is once the spell has been cast that's when the manipulation starts and I think I'm not sure if it's this clip but there's that may be a little extra thing about the so called leaders This is the professor De Smet again,

this was the Masters can only exist if they have an enemy ever they have an object of anxiety that's something that was very well described by Orwell in 1984 where he where he talked about the region warrior who was a constant threat, but nobody actually knew whether he really existed or not and but masters and the operating system always have have to invent new enemies, new objects of anxiety because if there will be no object of anxiety, the Masters would not have a reason to exist because

one of the main reasons is the controlling anxiety so and the leaders of the masses feel that if there would be no object of anxiety anymore, the masses would wake up and what would they do if they wake up? The first thing they will do is kill their leaders. Yes, I'm going to send this episode to the professor maybe he'll do some deconstruction on on CRT with his expertise.

So with that in mind you will see the vested interests the key people in the via binary trap cuz we just not saying we got to a post racial anywhere near is the fact that a lot of people could walk away from the George Florrie case and like we got our guy yes and he's going for good justice was done I went and did my March I walked across the Black Lives Matter mural charity live freeze and lay like no no, no, no, no, no, no you're saying

we got to keep them we got to keep them jacked up so this is just another thing and it's just that like the leaders know always like we got to keep them in a state of state of fear. right because it is the democrats needed and is ready to meet for the republicans no pun intended because the more they say it the more they put out race is black. The Black Lives Matter and her confession her confession is so critical. And when I say her I'm sorry for the creek. Yeah, Patrice colors. Her

confession that they are Marxist. Just tanks everything for now. Show me what you write about. I think is that the CRT is is great for both parties. They both like using this as their tentpole issue and pontificating about it is really unproductive for anybody. Of course, but there is no progress leaves us in the dead missing in a deadlock and it just keeps it like standard leaders alive. I'm not saying Easy, easy wherever listening,

just from his analysis. The constant keeping new information keeps them alive if you want to say I met Fourthly their political careers or even you're saying it's literally their literal lives. Yeah, absolutely. Well, okay, well that's interesting because we're going to have to see CRT critical race theory for what it's being used for, and not what it really is. Yeah, it's, what do you call it? object of anxiety. That's, that's what it is. Um, so I guess we can go in and let our joy and

I was hoping we're hoping we go back to this. Here we go. No one wants a Boogeyman near their kids, and certainly not in their classrooms. The operatives know this, those fears got played up. And now along with the fear of trans kids taking over Junior High handball, parents are fighting with school boards in cities and towns across the country over curricula that they believe teaches white kids that they are

racist. None of this is actually happening. Who cares about a little old thing like the truth when you have the perfect campaign buzzword for 2022? It even has the magic word in it, race. Joining me now is Kimberly Crenshaw, founder and executive director of the African American policy forum and the legal scholar who coined the term critical race theory. So what is your fault, man? Am I you know, I tripped over the curb this

morning and I went critical race theory. does everything bad at the end, the cicadas y'all really need to stop with the cicadas critical race theory that was not nice. Everything in the bag. I just wrote down a few of the notes of what people are calling critical race theory, Marxism, racism, bigoted. Let's Let's start with the Marxism. That's their favorite one. They're using that every single time. And I hate to ask you, I hate to

ask dumb questions. So please don't think that critical race theory Marxism, don't worry Joyce will do that for so that's the that's the thing. If you say critical race theory, they'll point to her book and the MV official academic term of critical race theory. But that's not what it is. And George did tell truth bear. She says that a didn't it doesn't teach white kids that they're racist. No, it teaches their teachers that their race. The teachers teach the kids. So there is, like I

said, they work these things very carefully. And what the product they want as cabbies in every classroom is constantly reminding people to you know, be coconspirators cavies, I get kevi in every classroom, right? It's sad to say, but that's that's the goal of this whole thing. And they met they can never shake that Marxist term. But because of what Patrice said, is just anything that's tied to race now is tied back to black lives. It's gonna

be Marxist, it's gonna be Marxist. And this is a first this is not a first in the fact that we talked about the Communist Party in, in racial dealings all the way back to the 1930s or even early I mean, yeah, definitely even earlier than that. But um, in America, but now this is the first time we had it I actually put out on the front where as you know,

it's very clear to see what's going on here. Um, so yeah, it's clear to us this what No, we you, you can always go back and play the clip of her of her saying she's a Marxist and that that's not just from the Republican side. I mean, I don't know where they they I don't want this misconception in that black people are for Marxism, not that I speak for all black people.

But that just never took I mean, because you had a lot of other groups that had Marxist views, that it never they never could get a strong haul because that just doesn't support you know, the the average economic view of the average black American business such things that no we we want to be credited for our work you know, I mean, we're just like every other American in that aspect of it, you know, we want to get paid more. We don't want people to tell us what to do or our kids we want

to have property ownership, these things are big to us. So please, they'll never get a strong hole. And like I said, they they she burned herself when she said that, but you hear the language the joys use the operative these these loaded terms, and I think this projection is calling it a strategy by by the Republicans, whereas the strategy is this whole setup,

right? And that's the whole thing and it might work for them because as long as they get their republicans talking about race period, they can always lay with them the racist in the mind the masses, so maybe from that aspect of It's like I say, if so what would what would you? political consultant, Mr. mo? What would you advise Ted Cruz to do or Marco Rubio or any of these dudes would not respond from. from a political standpoint? Yeah. Gas, no brakes in the Marxism. Yeah, I mean,

it's a winner. Winner. Oh gas, no brakes. no brakes, because it works. And that's what gets on there. I mean, you hear her addressing it anytime you hear him trying to bring it in by Oh, please the critical race theory that you discussed at Harvard? I mean, that's that kind of thing. Is that based in Marxism? No. But you heard what can be said and I trust can't be more than Kiran Shah. So in this aspect of it, because I think she's, she's a bit out of touch on where

they're taking this as well. With that, I think we stopped at two, let's go ahead and get into three. It's critical race theory, Marxism. Well, you know what, here's here's the thing, like a critical answer the question answer the question, you know what, here's the thing. That performative that's performative right there. You know, joy, instead of that's a great question. Nope. Let's find out the answer. If she's gonna give an answer. It's critical race theory, Marxism.

Well, you know what, here's here's the thing, like, critical race theory is not so much a thing. It's a way of looking at a thing. It's a way of looking at race. It's a way of looking at why after so many decades, centuries, actually, since the emancipation, we have patterns of inequality that are enduring,

they're stubborn. And the point of critical race theory originally, was to think and talk about how law contributed to the subordinate status of African Americans of indigenous people, and an entire group of people who were coming to our shores, from from Asia. And the point was, quite frankly, to understand the problem in order to intervene in it to understand why the greatest hopes for our republic were not being

realized, even though these hopes were encoded in law. So critical race theory just inherits the beliefs and the hopes of Frederick Douglass of Martin Luther King, basically want the law to do for the freed people, what the law did for

enslavers. And we picked that up in the 70s and 80s, after the civil rights movement to say, Okay, so now we got this big civil rights movement, we have all these laws on the books, but things really aren't looking as different as they should if we are really the society that we say we are. What I had to say is, if you're dealing with this from the 70s,

and 80s, you're a lawyer, right? And you've been dealing with how law has been used as a tool or, either I mean, at worst, Matt, best ineffective for saying so called black people, I will find you ineffective, because you've been doing this for for 40 years, nothing's happened. What do they want? What does she want? I mean, what what do you want?

She wants to stay where she's at in a nice comfortable spot where pontificate about this, these theories or race, and not actually go into trial law, or these things that actually like, Hey, I got an idea. How about you take on these algorithms? Right, is this bailed actually is impacting that's a real, tangible problem that's based off a race. We've covered this here. How these algorithms calculate Ben? Yes, yeah, that's real legal problems, not what I'm gonna get.

But have you ever heard maybe it's in some of the other clips, but does she ever mentioned exactly what legal issues are racist back to reconstruction, reconstruction and civil rights? And it's all about voting. I mean, let's just be honest, here. It's everything's about voting. Now. It's about the voting laws. And you saw with Georgia and Texas and all these other places, it's all about the access to voting and making it easier for people to vote, which I don't understand how that's

very easy. If the polls are overwhelmed, make more polls. I mean, that's a very simple act, but it's like, well, we don't need to show ID either. And it's like, we've proven that that's the crazy idea to think that's racist to say somebody had to show ID to think that black people don't have IDs. It's like, I mean, but this is, their, their, they're brought up there to fear airtime, you know, to keep people engaged into the racial conversation into 2022. Because there's a lot at stake

in that race. And they they've lost a lot of leverage, um, pal, if you want to talk about that, I mean, it's it's the whole thing called a mandate that a lot of people have dark people are not feeling so how about those? How about those silver rights? How about we jump on that but it's like no, no, no. That's not true. That's not true. It's only Republicans who are anti vaxxers it's not true what you say? Yeah. Your numbers are awfully low on on the who's enthused

about taking the shot with the dark folks with an X. Right? So um, yeah, so that's that's the whole thing with but we got some more clips with him. Just let him wrap up with the last two clips. So we put about the task of understanding how long wasn't just the neutral referee. Law wasn't always on our side. In fact, law was less on our side than four on our side. And we wanted to tell these stories in order to do better with the

promises that are embedded in the Constitution. That's what's in critical race theory. So is critical race theory does is there a K through 12 curriculum that right now is being taught I'm sorry, I know it's a dumb question. But is there a K through 12 curriculum on critical race theory that's being taught in schools around this country? Well, Lovejoy if it was news to most Americans, that critical race

theory was in K through 12. It was news to me, too. I'm one of the co authors of one of the few books on critical race theory, I think I would know, if we were being taught in K through 12. I mean, basically, critical race theory, classic critical race theory is a law school course. And it's really, you know, not taught as widely as I would hope it would. Now, here's the deal. This is not about whether anything called critical race

theory is in K through 12. What they're calling quitter, critical race theory doesn't exist anyway. Oh, okay. Even better. So, critical race theory is not there. But whatever you're calling it, that's not real. Go away. actual question, enjoy something completely different? Yeah. The question you should ask was, so what is being confused for critical race theory? Yeah. K through 12. That would be the

actual Well, nothing she knows. Yeah. But it's not there's nothing because she said it. There's nothing that she was she hit it out there now. There's nothing there. So what is that? That was just linked into that document on page nine with the abolitionist teaching network. What What is that? I mean, these these, these classes that we're seeing these teachers are being forced to attend. What is that? Yeah, well, that but I think you said it earlier, critical race

theory is what? Got the teachers into this mode. And now they're just off the hook. Right? It's like I've been there. They got the they got the programming, they got the program. I got to teach it to my pupils. Do you think they have a little badge like a decoder ring when you're part of the club and your little Appalachians network? Yeah, ID card or something? I'm sure they do. He probably in the network. If you Google me, I'm in the network.

Did you look into that thing? How, whose funding that was that I did not look into I mean, like I said, it's just if I did not look, I didn't have a chance to look into the actual network. I stopped with KB, because that was partially to see is that this year, just your fruit tree is producing, I'm good to go. I need to know. But of course, I'll do I'll do more research into it as time permits. But I want to stick on talking to the expert, the co author, the no co creator of critical race theory

and her denial that it even exists. So let's wrap up with them with number five. It is a backlash effort to reverse the racial reckoning, unlike any we've seen in our lifetime. And as you pointed out at the beginning, they can't say, you know, I want to hear her say that again. It is a backlash effort to reverse the racial reckoning,

unlike any we've seen in our lifetime. And as you pointed out at the beginning, they can't say, you know, we're for racism, they can't say Derrick Sheldon should have killed George Floyd with his hand in his pocket looking like he was completely

without a care in the world. They couldn't say that. So they they they looked around and found of a strange sounding theory that they could put all of the grievances and resentments in and mobilize people around this Boogeyman and in and if our side can't really understand what's going on, it's going to work. It's worked in the past. We weren't to end reconstruction and it can work to end this reckoning, too.

Yeah, all right. Cuz that was purely political yeah that's what it's all about voting in 2022 and I'll say this as you heard her say she said the the our racial reckoning She said she's so tapped in a bow she wouldn't know about things were a little does she know that it's not a politically correct to say rational reckoning I liked it actually it rolls off the tongue very easily but the Washington Post opinion piece says do not call it a racial reckoning the race

towards equality equality has barely begun that's headline Really? Of course yes. And then also the CNN has one as well is there was no racial reckoning. So she's out of the loop that one. No ratio reckoning has exist. I mean, it doesn't exist or you know, hasn't? Hasn't hasn't realized yet. Yeah, it hasn't materialized yet. But like I said that she's antiquated and not to meet your ages or anything. But she actually thinks that George floor was progress, but not to

the radicals. That's nothing that's like a no, it's like, No, no, no, we got to keep pushing. Well, I'm sad to say this woman is just to be dismissed from here on out because she's, she's no good. She's just, she's coming into her own terms of like, intersectionality. When you ask her what it is, like, what you know, what's the thing? That thing you know, the thing. So that's the first block. I think so now's the time to thank the people that make this podcast happen. Our producers

Yes. And as always, we'd like to remind ourselves what we're doing here, right man and the black man have to be able to sit down at the same table, the white man has to feel free to speak his mind without hurting the feelings of that Negro. And the so called Negro has to feel free to speak his mind without hurting the feelings of the white man, then they can bring the issues that are under the rug out on top of the table and take an

intelligent approach to get the problem solved. But the only way to do it. Yeah, that's right. Y'all can go looking for some critical race theory or just listen to mo facts with Adam Curry. This is where we solve it all. The whole world working on it very hard. We are a non commercial podcast. And when I say non commercial, it means that we don't have commercials. We don't take corporate money, we have no sneaky ways. In fact, we rely

entirely on the producers of the podcast. And that means that we expect you to feedback any value if you got value by listening to the show or any of the episodes. return the favor.

So we left off on the racial reckoning. So what I want to do is go in find out the actual meaning of reckoning racial reckoning, okay, or reckoning? Yeah, reckoning. Yes? Can I can I make a guess without knowing just Sure. is a derivative from German? For the bill for the revenue? I'm not sure if you see it from the bill from the bill. Yeah, like if you get a bill that you call for the reckoning the reckoning? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So okay, yeah. Suddenly,

you caught your clothes. Okay. Yeah, that's that's almost almost it. But there's other meanings as well. It's a very tricky word. It can be used in so many formal and informal ways. So I have I, I swear English, that's a YouTube channel. He's an English teacher. And he has a wonderful English accent. So going into 23. Okay, we have a couple of phrasal verbs with this as well, to recomm to set an account, but it's more common to reckon to work out the final amount like to tally up to balance the

debits and credits. So look, you pay for everything today, and we'll recommend up at the end of the day. Yeah, we'll equalize it again. To settle account. Okay, so to reckon, I reckon I think it's my opinion or to calculate to read Come up to settle that to set an account to tally up if you lie through reckon you're going to have to reckon on this happening. Expect to reckon with

to deal with. Yeah. And then somebody to be reckoned with or something to be reckoned with a powerful force, that's going to be difficult to recommend. Okay, the origin of this word comes from proto Germanic, there's a word recognize, which means to count, and to explain. But this word record, in nearly all of

the senses I've given you, it's informal. It's great for an informal conversation in the pub, but in something semi formal, or something formal writings, particularly, I think my opinion is, I calculate by figure to set up an account truly expect to deal with to anticipate Okay, so to record Okay, there's a lot more meaning to it than I initially thought. Cuz you were you were in the air formal way. But he also gave the formal meanings me something to reckon with a force or to settle

up, like, as you said, in an informal way, too. Either way. She said that with her being a lawyer, aka a word wizard. How does she mean that ratio reckoning? Is it like a ratio forced to be, you know, to be reckoned with? Or is it? Right, right, any of those other meanings besides the even Steven, got a Friday evening? Yeah, about getting back, man. You could another way you could say, to get back, right? Yes. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So how are you using this where I set all the score?

Yes. So what does that mean, when you hear that it's like, aggressive? Yes. So in the minds of people that may be caught self conscious about race. It's like, well, we have narrative from one narrative here. We oppressed them for 40 years. And they won't recommend. What does that mean? It was saying, like, that makes people nervous. Yeah, cuz Wait a minute. Does it mean 400 years for us? Yes. That's, that's, that's where they are. I can go or

or for 400 years. I can handle another 100 What's the problem? Right? doubtful, but yeah, yeah, it's Yeah, it's aggressive and scary that way. Yes. Yeah. So what what is that racial reckoning that just sounds as like a blaxploitation film. You're saying, well, like the Panthers is coming back to, you know, saying to get white, do whatever, like so why use that term, but, and then, like I said, the article said, don't use that term. So I just found

that she was out of the loop with that again. Yeah. So now we have to go to the other side of the binary coin. And go over to the Fox News. And this is Tucker Carlson. This is the blurb from the video. Tucker Carlson tonight hosts blast, blast critical race theory and highlights parents push back. Good evening and welcome at Tucker Carlson. Tonight. Loudoun County, Virginia, right outside Washington, DC was for a very long time for generations. A reasonable place was orderly and

calm. It was well maintained. Loudoun County famously worked, certainly in contrast to the city nearby. And then two things happen. The Loudon County first, lots of federal money flowed in all those government contracts in Washington made ladon County rich in fact, bladen County is now the single richest county in

the entire United States. And that's been a problem because any place you find easy money, you will also inevitably find large numbers of unhappy white liberals those brutal neurotics with the masks on screaming and everyone else to get in line. Loudoun County has a whole bunch of those people now. It also has a huge number of immigrants. One out of every four people in

Loudon County was born in another country. Now in general, most immigrants are not very liberal at all, actually, in fact, many of them have what would now be described as extreme right wing positions on social issues. If you ever have a chance to ask a Salvadoran what he thinks of transgenderism, it'll make you laugh, probably nervously. You'll look around to see if anyone heard it. But as a

practical matter, it doesn't matter at all. What immigrants what Salvadorans or Pakistanis think of social issues or how they organize their own families. Immigrants vote overwhelmingly for the Democratic Party, and those votes give more power not to them, but to those unhappy white liberals who want to blow everything up.

So this made me realize first of all is a lot of loaded loaded language as in the Jory clips of neurotics and there's a lot of hyperbole is just as heavy on that side but I want to show it just in your tracks and pulls away from both into these two camps but what also he said we made me realize is this is not for the target is the audience is not quote unquote black black American people. This is

training the kids of the new immigrants Yes. Because as he said, they come from very I mean, if you talk about just take the groups it's just coming into the country now in mass Central America and and Mexico they have very strong patriarchal system right. Um, you look at the Haitians Thanks. Thanks. Similar thing. You look at the Afghan a similar thing.

So these are a lot of people is coming into the country, especially in Loudoun County or counties like Loudoun County, which is right up the road from me so I'm ground zero on this kind of thing. You got to get in those kids hands early. You have bitten I think that's reason why you hear the term dark people because you can't use po anymore right? You can't use black

anymore. Black and Brown Brown Brown Brown so you really think they're gonna gonna go with this with the dark stuff when they rolled out different terms like I said the PLC is dead they tried that. Some kind of crazy acronym but it knows don't work. Like say Black has its own connotation to it. Brown is more Hispanic. So do your middle eastern or Indian kids don't fall under that so always you know why? And then what's the opposite of white so it's like you can't do black so let's go with dark

This is it so this this is probably not news to you. But this clearly shows that the Democratic Party has given up on black America just given up they don't care well no know what they are. There's now this is another term I came up with their cicada cracks. Okay, they go dormant

for a long period of time. Time for us to vote and they big they weigh out the dirt and they come over to us like it's time to vote now black Pope's but in the meantime, they had to actually engage with these other groups and set up because if you let kids come here and see that their parents way, got them conservative ways gotten them to the point they're at without any pushback, or you lose, you lose them. Yeah. So now it's like they had to go full court press on. One given them superiority

over the white kids. Um, that's I think that's the whole point of this critical race theory in the in the, in the academic way. Because they have to train these newly integrated people yeah, into becoming liberal into submission and train them into voting for us. Yes, well, we'll make them counter their parents. I mean, it's just like any, any teenager, right? You make them probably easy. You make them counter their parents and with any teenager is you become you liberal when you're younger, and

then you go more conservative. So now they have to get those kids on ramp as early as possible. And that's why I think you're seeing the CRT or whatever you want to call it being pushed on these groups at a very early age, what would you want to call it? The stuff? Well, we'll call it is what it call it, what it is, is mind control. It's a it's my control and manipulation. To me, let me just be clear on where I'm at with this whole thing. I'm past

the point of history being taught in schools. Now, I know that might be a hot take. But what I'm saying is the whole point of history is if you're not going to make everybody happy with history, so what I would rather see taught is law. kids know their rights. kids know what voting means civics power, the political system works. Yeah, that way they can actually, you know, it's not a bunch of narrative because whoever has the political reigns will define the narrative,

right? Yeah, um, you'll go from, um, but he's why these textbooks change every four years, like who's in power, let's go. Super, you know, well, slavery wasn't that bad. We're gonna write it off as kind of a form of just indentured servitude, which that's not true. And then on the other hand, you know, we're just as bad off as you heard her saying, like now we're in a similar case that we were 400 years ago. It's like No that's

not it either. So my just my personal opinion, um is I think history should be learned in your churches or synagogues, your family or the centers family family history that way you get a proper perspective but if you want to have kids actually be good citizens and productive citizens teach them law teach them teach them why and then you can get history in there so if you teach him this for Case in point by law

law is almost by definition history it's all case law. So you're always going back in history to see how things were done in the past with law correctness that's when I was gonna meet with her like the Brown versus Board of Education Okay, you got these rights, how'd you get them understanding then you go through the case and then kids understand like, oh, okay, that's how the judicial system works.

But the problem here is is much deeper it's not about what parents want their kids to be taught it's impossible in this in this situation where you have to blow up the whole system you I mean, every day, I'm receiving at least one email from parents who are homeschooling or has looked towards you know, alternative solutions that therefore disclosure I'm homeschooling now right on and not in case in point. We have a family law book. So I'm not just something I'm just speaking. Oh,

can I be a guest lecturer at the mo facts school? Texas, part of the podcast I like to teach him a little bit of Linux or something I'll give him a

little like him a little some extra in life. I'll teach him how to code and this is how we're gonna have to do his community schooling and that's the way to go that's I completely think that's the way to get to get the federal government out of every one school well that will never let that happen on in mass because that's their that's their their control mechanism of course. Well that's their that's their base their their funding. Yeah.

The teachers like you always speak about the teacher lobby. I mean, when I say lobby, but that's the appropriate slip but the teacher union Yeah. is one of the most powerful unions that it is got a lot of juice. Yeah. So you're not just going to let kids just getting the kids to be able to homeschool they had to, you had to prove your education level. Like how don't wait like, but this goes back to your kids aren't yours? And we need to really understand.

Yeah, that's, that's a scary one. That's a scary one. Because what they're trying to play into is what we're talking about your your homeschooling is your your community is important to their education as well. community around them, but you know, the way they make it sounds like whoa, whoa, we really got to take care of this for you. Which is taking a justice step too far.

Yeah, and we have to understand that our kids aren't ours. I mean, I don't want to go into that but when you sign that birth certificate, a lot of power over it's like, okay, there are kids, but you have custody of them. That's a scary I mean, like that's there. I mean, it didn't really dawn on me. Of course, I already knew this but it really just was really really dawned on me if that's a word what would the

birth certificate expand? Now when you sign your right and when you sign that birth certificate, basically your children are Ward's of the state, they give you custody and not everyone knows this that's why they can come and take custody at any time a truancy officers social services, all of these things. And like I said, these are things that we could really

address if these lawyers want to address race and issues. I mean, there's issues that you couldn't address but even I mean, I was getting call from truant officers because they were slow to update the system. Okay, so when you're gonna bring your kid to school we had to have somebody to come out there it's like what hold on so you can't even not see your kids at school.

Wow Yeah, we got to like I said we misses the point I'm saying about learning your rights and learning what you what you sign away when you sign certain documents not that we all have to have I mean, I'm not one of those people where you know, the sovereign people kind of thing because to operate in this system, you had to have a social security number you had to have a birth certificate. I mean, like um, to even get jobs right you had to prove that you were for our citizens you had to

prove that you were born here yeah. Oh yeah, it's Wow. Like how little rights we do have or um, close we are to them actually. There's a huge are keys there's a

huge theory about the law. of the sea and the corporate maritime law maritime law yes and the and the and the corporate law and now whenever I bring this up I know agenda Dvorak scoffs at me and even you know even goes as deep as well when everything is an all uppercase then that's that's the legal like the the ownership that's where they own you are you more Adam not because that's something that the more or not the more these the sovereign rights people with the Moore's while you're

talking basically with Wesley Snipes, you know, the same thing he's like, yo, so sovereign citizen, you know, I don't know. taxation is theft. Yeah, travel, he learned the hard way. That didn't work out very well. Like I said, in theory, and this theory meets reality in theory, yet on it sounds good. But I'm not trying to figure it out from this out of a jail sale. I'm not trying to argue my case. So you gotta, you gotta be pragmatic when you're

homeschooling for kids. I mean, you can't be sitting in jail, it's just not gonna work. It kind of makes it hard to homeschool. Doesn't have good Wi Fi. So let's get number two. And that's why Mystery solved. A lot of places with high levels of recent immigrants tend to be far more liberal than those immigrants themselves. It's interesting, and that's definitely true in Loudoun County, Virginia. Take a look at

the schools if you don't believe it. Well, Adam county used to have famously good schools, people wanted to send their kids to those schools. Now those schools are run by lunatics who hate the country. It happened fast, it always does. Here's video from a County School Board Meeting just two days ago. The first person you're going to see in this video is a middle school teacher called Andrea Weisskopf. Now, as you watch this, keep in mind that Andrea Weisskopf is actually a middle school

teacher. She's not a paid actor. We didn't make her up to prove a point. She is entirely real down to the ostentatiously displayed pronouns. In her Twitter bio. Here's Miss Weisskopf explaining how the book To Kill a Mockingbird. A book the rest of us assumed was all about why racism is bad, is in fact itself racist because it causes something called racial trauma due to the fact there are white people in it. They are so afraid of their children seen another view of

sexuality, gender, or religion. If you want to talk about books that are assigned, let's read To Kill a Mockingbird together. If you weren't willing to consider the racial trauma this assigned book causes black children with its white saver. savior ism. Then you have no business discussing any books. Oh, I have a unique opportunity. I happen to know a black child he's a little older now. Mo Have you ever read To Kill a Mockingbird?

Yes I did already in I think it was eighth or ninth grade I believe good because as a white person I have no idea about this trauma that must have caused you I thought it was a just didn't sit with me one way or the other. I mean, the black guy kind of got railroaded in it but the point is, is that white savior ism that's the that's the that's the key. I know. I know. I was waiting for you to say that as a child you were traumatized by the white savior trying to come into the story.

What Ain't it amazing nasty dramatic but all the stuff they show on Netflix and that's trauma that's trauma Queen inflamm and all these Central Park five all this trauma based entertainment although that's not trauma No, but if I read a book with it you're saying it is based in I think like was like 30s I believe I'm gonna say 40s if I'm

not mistaken um yes. That you know just tell what happened in a legal case where I did dude dig it railroad but it's the fact that that white guy that's the whole point is the white savior ism that's what they're trying to rebrand because but it was a lie ship is is being mocked. I just was like, we got to go one step further. Just want to make sure that I get it. Maybe it's not a fair question, because it was so long ago. But you said I said well,

what did you I asked him in a stupid way. But so what did you think of To Kill a Mockingbird? Were you impressed when you said he was neither here nor there? He said the black guy got railroaded. I mean, that was your takeaway. Yeah. No, that's important because for white people, this is very important book. Because there is some I do understand where the white

savior ism comes from. But that's not what it is but I think that as a white man I of course I've read this book but not in school because I came through the Dutch school system so that was not that was not on the curriculum so I read it later in life and the feeling I got is oh so good you know it can it can work wasn't like really savior ism I didn't feel that any of that but quite honestly I had the same it's like why is this doesn't seem like they would have to be big,

literally indifferent actually. Yeah and I will say this on the other side of you do get these racially charged books you get sounder you get, ya know, those kind of books is but like say it's the adults are putting way more energy and then the kids right? Right? And it's just like

it's another book you have to read. And like say it's a fictitious book so while we get so bent out of shape over like a reality story, right, you know, I mean, other things that we could be reading you know, or not reading but the problem is, you talk about race and the white saviors and but her sentence starts off with sexuality and she didn't even didn't even mention race at that point.

Know that that's that that's the point. It's like, you don't really care you're just saying, you just want that door to halt you just want us to hold the door so you can bring so much other stuff in and it's like you think I'm that dumb? are black parents are that dumb or even it's a dark parents if you I don't know what the comic because like you said, You can't say black and brown you say can't say people of color. No. I'm gonna say dark. No, no, I'm just keeping a dark from now

on. I'm just gonna keep using it. See how that works out for me? Yeah, you let me know. Okay. We is. I don't understand. I don't know what, what the argument was that I get with the arguments about but I don't understand from one side of it. The Eve they think the people they're trying to help are well, let's go back to let's go back to our mass formation. These people are under spell. So they are probably at this point in this state not capable of of thinking that you're smart,

dumb, or one way or the other. They're just, they're just doing what they're what they've been programmed to do. So do I have natural immunity? You have natural immunity from a lot of things. Not that not me personally, but one of the people they're trying to target audiences is black people, right? They want to get us route up. So we make a big push for and then hold the door open and they flood all these other propagandistic news and information in that's that's the goal.

Right? That's interesting because this is targeted at dark people. But it's the white people that get riled up over it. But they need us to buy into it. It's the same thing with the

vaccine. The fact that we won't buy into it is a real problem for the people that's pushing it because if we if we and I say this very loosely as a group, but it's all in mass black people like we want the vaccine we want the vaccine it will be Snopes and it will be no like you will just know random bulldoze by the insane by what will be allowed and we will all

be mandated by now. But the fact that we're reluctant because you know we have the prior knowledge and what I call the natural immunity to race it's like no I see where you're going with this and you realize that right I know your information, but my natural immunity protects me from the BS and it's like no, I'm not gonna I'm not willing to go that route so I think that's why they can't understand it like why the calculations and they're like we're saying all the magic words why is it not

working? Right? And props mad props to Kyrie Yeah. Good on him man. In and day since since you brought it up I mean, cuz I reason why I gotta go here because it reached your radar, which you're not you're a non sports fan. Um it's working. The lady that ousted they asked it, Rachel Nichols for my Kayla. He had the ESPN reporter who also got sideline Yes. No, no, no, not not safe. Not safe steal. Oh, no, no. Okay. The one that replaced Rachel Nichols with she is um, you Is this

outside of my paygrade? Or she can't know she came out after carry to say my least like they couldn't I think Monica Andrews that's it Malika yes she's the one replaced Rachel Rachel Nichols and now she's earning her keep by going at the carry and in a way kind of going at the rate Oh sh do wishes and once the ESP was making them mandating them So what I'm saying is you're seeing when you get that spot it comes it comes

with a price Oh yeah. And she's having to pay up strong I got to give him his props he's over strong she's a one dropper Yeah, she's very nice hand she's half Jewish. And she's half black she's a Drake of ESPN got it that and that was what they use the real black woman and I say real black I mean by rational man. Let me cuz I want to say this biracial is its own thing, which, of course, good

nor bad and embrace it. But they for optics. Yeah, they had to use a quote unquote, let me say I can properly quote unquote, a real black woman as the victim. Oh, Rachel Nichols. They couldn't use her. They had to use another lady that says she was a basically a token hire. You know, it's it's so disgusting how they do this. Again, back to Sharon Osborne, you know, so that whole thing came down that she goes on Entertainment Tonight, and it's

a race story. Who interviews are the black guy? Of course, it's so obvious, you know, and it's by itself that I don't know what the guy's name is. He should be thinking this sucks. Don't make me do this story all the time. To ruin das Wow. Cast in record, right. Rachel Nichols was in the same spot. Yep. As Melissa Andrews was her criticizing carry would be the wrong optics. So these things are Got it? Yeah, they're pre planned. It's like Okay, we got an NBA season coming up. We

might have some rubber rousers. So you're saying some people that we don't want to go along with the program and the NFL mean NBA being 85% black or more it's likely it's gonna be a black person so we need somebody it's black there are appears black criticizes black players. So lo and behold, here you are. And I know that sounds far fetched, but no, not at all. No, I come from that world. No, I come from media. That's exactly how they think you're spot on.

But we know it's like I said, like when we see the it's the natural, let's say the natural immunity to the bullshit because you see the black reporter sitting now with the case, the one we talked about last time with officer bird from the capital. They had to sit black reporters down with him. I was like, Okay, oh, now we see what this is. Put out, I'll go back to my, my standard, what I think is happening, they are still the Boulay the intellectual elite,

the liberal intellectual elite. Democrats power all politicians. They still are using the old fashioned messaging system. And they haven't really caught up or figured out how to reach people with with their message. They still are doing it the old fashioned way, you know, do 60 Minutes interview with The New York Times, you know, maybe do an extra hit with anderson cooper just for the looks because the ratings aren't there. And it's not working. It's fundamentally not working.

Hollywood can't influence anyone anymore. No one cares. They're tuning out they're sick of commercials. So people aren't getting the messages the way they used to the only way ironically, his clips being played on podcasts. And, or mainly, I would say YouTube clips on YouTube clips on Twitter clips on Insta. And I said insar. That's how it's still being propagated. very inefficient, very inefficient, and they're still pushing it this way. And they they're going

to come to the realization it's going to stop working. It will eventually I think it already is it's just going to break look at it. It's not it's not working on you. It's not working on, on on black Americans with mandates. It's not working. It's something that you pointed out that just dawned on me but you're saying it's not working but I think it is because what they're doing now is they're following the non traditional media format, over action to action. This is how it goes on.

on the YouTube side and these kinds of things, I react to a video and then somebody reacts to my video and then somebody reacts to that video and then I get back to me and then I react to that video that's what they're doing this they're doing that but then reaction video model it's good point yeah so this this is them trying to mimic answer some what's right so we you see tuck across the say something then enjoy rains gonna lay that out she reacts to that and then no gives more

Tucker Carlson more content to react to her reaction and then hopefully somebody from the outside of the sphere react to it. So what that does it from your own YouTube experience it it hypes up the people watching your stuff, and they'll be into it and then you know the in the same for everyone else who's answering your video, but I think it still remains very limited. It's not a mass scale operation because it's only going to be people who are really maybe that's not you got to have

that you nailed it. You'll never get it right they have no joy read indeed it has no talent. I mean, she might get one line of like common tuck cross and tuck homes. Like that's funny you were saying but it's like

the other things is it's not they're not talented. This I mean this this is why 45 savage beat him though something because he's a natural, talented jokester and I mean like when it comes to like cracking or snapping or whatever he's got he's got game he's got stick right that's why he was so successful at it but then the other side tried to do it. It

was like Yeah, like and it sounds lame. So if you don't have talent, you just don't have talent and that's what's really being exposed and they don't have very many talented people in the on the on the mainstage do not because like when you look at Don Lemon he's like oh, he'll say sounds like man that was lame. But he's entertaining to watch the Korean Korean like a Korean the Koreans kind of way you react to it? Yes. It's beautiful because we've won we've won we

broke them to arm model Oh, sir. Around commercials which is the problem Yeah, True. True. Alright, so so now we have across insane clip. He had a teacher speaking now he's gonna have parents speaking out against reacting basically, to the teachers. Oh, so if you don't consider To Kill a Mockingbird racist, says Andrea Weisskopf, then, quote, you have no business discussing any books. Can you even imagine what this lady's personal life must be like? miserable does not even begin to describe a

desperate hellish. But if she somehow looks familiar, there's a reason for that. You've heard a lot of lectures like this recently from people like Andrea Weisskopf, stupid people telling you what you're allowed to say and read. That's essentially 2021 summed up in a single sentence. The scariest part is they're telling your kids the exact same thing all day, every day in school. So what effect is that having on your kids on all of our kids on the country itself? Will over time the

effect is unimaginable. For the last year most parents have put up with this, either they didn't know what was happening or they felt powerless to stop it from happening. They were afraid to object to speak up as lunatics like Andrea Weisskopf hurt their children. But that's changing. Finally, some parents have had enough of this. Watch this mother at this week's Loudoun County School Board meeting.

CRT is not an honest dialogue is a tactic that was used by Hitler in the Klu Klux Klan on slavery very many years ago to dumb down my ancestors, so we could not think for ourselves. CRT is racist, it is abusive, it discriminates against one's color. Let me educate you an honest dialogue does not impress the press. Anonymous dialogue does not permit hatred or injustice is to communicate with deceiving without deceiving

people. Today, we don't need your agreement. We want action in the backbone for what we asked for today to ban CRT, I had to come down here today to tell you to your face that we are coming together and we are strong. This will not be the last greets and means respectfully. Whoo. And as you can hear, maybe infer from what she said our ancestors, this is a black lady. This is this is something that they couldn't do. It makes them crazy. The brain

freezes. It's like what do we do with this because if you go against her, then it kind of just ruins your whole narrative, but they don't understand that nobody wants to be a victim. anymore. Like that's so that's so pre Rona. Even before then, I mean, that's the whole thing is just that, but the problem is with social media, people finally have a voice to say no, if you before I mean only what if you want to only hear what msnbc has to say? And you were like, well, is that

what black people are saying? Well, I guess Oh, that's what the black anchors are saying, or that's what the black lady from Harvard is saying, you know, that kind of thing. So you have people like this woman here coming forward and saying, No, we don't we don't want to be victims. And we realize that this is the same thing that went on throughout history. Like I said, it's just, we live in an information age. And you can draw the parallels very easily to things that happen in the past.

Once you hit Yes, certainly, when it comes to communication, absolutely. Well, I see your one black lady at a, at a PTA meeting, raise you have a survivor of Mao's China, who I've been very alarmed about what's going on in our school, you are now teaching, training our children to be social justice warriors, and to lose our country and our history. Growing up in Mao's China, or this thing very familiar, the communist regime use the same critical theory to divide

people. The only difference is the use class instead of race. during the Cultural Revolution, our witness, students and teachers can turn against each other. We change school names to be politically correct. We were taught to denounce our heritage, the red cards, destroy anything that is not communist, statues, books and anything else. We also encourage you to report on each other just like the student equity ambassador program, and the bias reporting system. This is indeed the American version

of the Chinese Communist the Chinese Cultural Revolution. The critical race theory has its roots in Cultural Marxism. It should have no place in our school. How old was she? She must have been maybe 60 or 70s. I don't want to Adrian you're saying but she's definitely she's a survivor mouse. She has to you know, be the you know of the age. So you see the statues being pulled and books being taken out of school like you heard in the previous

clips. It gives the imagery of Mao's China and then you have a woman coming forward and surviving say yeah, this seems pretty similar. He doesn't help your case. But where did you get that from? I hadn't heard of I hadn't heard this woman. I got it off. What are the DC shorts on? YouTube? Yeah, good one I had not heard I heard but it was several several women from China. I'm noticing now in good faith. I have to say some of these people are just seeking attention my a lot of these

parents go there. And somebody I'll go viral. And it's like, all I can talk that you know, and then they just start yelling, cussing me and that kind of thing is not all good actors on both sides. Um, so I just want to point that out as well. Yeah, I saw some clips and it's like, little kids like scary. It's like, bro like, why are you traumatizing your keys like that just for some airtime? Like, not like it's just cuz they don't the kids. The adults don't ignore critical race

theory. So how can the kids and it's like, how do you? How do they know it's scary. So that's me just being unbiased on both sides of it. I don't like to see children using that as political props that it's very upsetting to me. Well, unfortunately, that happens. And sometimes it happens. Yeah. Yes, yeah. Yeah, somebody's saying that it's gone too far is what you're saying. No, I don't like it because one is not effective. First of all, and two is destructive. destructive to the key. I mean,

I thought that my point is for the kids. Yeah, Mola Mola, the kids though it's like why are you Why are you bringing the children into this? But you could say the same thing will they bring the kids into it cuz they trying to teach them so I get it from both sides. But we need to realize if we don't put on the brakes sometime soon. We can actually end up in Mao's China and I have some clips. Speaking on cultural revolution and why it was so violent. Yes, and listen for the parallels.

May 2016 marks 50 years since the start of China's Cultural Revolution. The decade long shift resulted in an estimated 2 million deaths alongside widespread abuse, displacement, public humiliation and torture. At the time, little was understood about the causes and devastating outcomes of the revolution. However, newly released archives have shed light on this dark period of China's modern history of so now

half a century later. What do we know about China's Cultural Revolution while the revolution was predominantly Chairman Moussa dongs attempt to establish himself as the leader of the Communist world by reading the country of capitalism and its long standing traditions. After Mao's Communist Party to power in 1949, the Soviet Union's new leader Nikita Khrushchev denounced his predecessor Joseph Stalin, and began to D Stalin eyes the USSR seeing

similarities between himself and Stalin. Mao began to fear a similar fate for himself. So in 1958, Mao launched a national campaign to boost China's economy called the Great Leap Forward, which radically redistributed land among China's rural population and organized workers into communes. The Great Leap Forward failed miserably decimating the economy and

diminishing Mao's role within the ruling party. To regain control mal united with like minded radicals, including his wife and defense minister Lin Biao to launch the Cultural Revolution. Yeah, so it was done to retain power at the end of the day that's what it was all about gaining power. But you heard like parents kids turning on parents and turning a man even turning him like like we're seeing now with climate change.

Yeah. And mask and we saw with the with the Roma, right if you see somebody outside call Yeah. Yeah, but I mean, kids kids calling on their parents, you know, that's, that's harsh. Well, that's what we've been through this before. Because I was in school at this time. Is your parents abusive? This is one of the big cultural changes that I went through as a child was, can you spank your kids or not? Yo, yeah. Right? That was the big argument. Can you spank your kids not? And it was like a

if you if your parents do anything, here's a number. And you can call them you know, all your parents. And that really powerful structure between the child and the parent. Of course, my mom, Mama facts, she said, You bet if you call them you bet how they get here by time I kill you. Okay, my mom. My mom had the hairbrush. And her threat was Adam Curry. And now she would do Adam Clarke Curry is going to be

bristle side down. Huh, it was was was, was really stiff brushes, you know, like, with the metal prongs. But that was the threat. Like I said, we've been here before kids calling, calling the authorities on their parents. So this is just another iteration of that. But now it's often not actions, but thoughts. And now the kids actually have a cell phone. Yeah. And speed dial.

Right? It's always like, oh, but it's, I just find it like it's scary in one sense, because I know how fragile these things are, and how fast they can spin out of control. And I don't think the people in play don't take that very seriously are serious enough what they're playing with. So I guess we can, we can get to the second clip of the Cultural Revolution. Conference in May of 1966. Mao claimed that bourgeois ideas had crept into society and the government, and that these

elements could only be removed the violent class struggle. In the months that followed, Mao shut down China's schools and mobilized students into paramilitary units called Red Guards. The groups attacked and killed teachers, intellectuals, and eventually ordinary people they suspected of undermining

the communist system. The movement infiltrated the military workers and even the ruling party itself by the late 1960s 10s of 1000s had been forced out of cities in an effort to purify urban areas, and millions had suffered Rape, Abuse, arbitrary imprisonment or torture. Some of the most horrific violence occurred in rural villages in southern China, where revolutionaries were known to practice ritualistic cannibalism in the name of revolution. Wow.

As far as opposition. So this happened, I think people don't really appreciate how fragile civility is and always talk about that proverbial glass and are we prepared? what's on the other side of that glass breaking, you know of that metaphorical glass? Breaking because the these families killed it. It's very, it's very alarming. And that's why I've tried to push the empathetic listening and understanding because you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube on

these kinds of things. The thing that's probably closest right now to what was happening then is the sunrise movement. And if you followed them, so it's predominantly young, young, young people, young children, or children young. And they're very, they're very radical when it comes to climate change. And they're just kids in my mind, but they're the leadership of sunrise very, very radical.

Again, it's this, you know, people from the 60s with, with true Marxist training from back in the day, and they're leading them. So this definitely, definitely needs to be be looked at scrutinized carefully, what's taking place. We have to because as we hear with the military, they're being pushed with the critical race theory people on their jobs are being pushed with it. It's this constant, unsettling, as, as the guy said before, object of anxiety. Yeah, it's the constant

the pushing of the object of anxiety. And then you have that and then you have the DOJ directing the FBI to crack now.

Every day in this country, the government under Joe Biden or whoever is running the joint infringes more and more upon our freedoms, pushing Americans closer and closer to the edge, the latest, the Attorney General of the United States instructing the Department of Justice and the FBI to address threats against school boards and teachers over COVID-19 restrictions, masks and critical race theory saying those threats

should be discouraged and prosecuted. The memo reads that, quote, constitutional protections don't extend to efforts to intimidate individuals based on their views. Wait, what? upriver, the Constitution protects actions and speech where individuals seek redress of their grievances. Now however, the ag seeks to remove that constitutional right, if you're a parent concerned about how your children are being taught, the Doa j actually threatening

parents concerned about their children. But it's okay to follow a US Senator into a bathroom and threatened to take her out of office. It's okay for Black Lives Matter rioters to intimidate and literally burn down our neighborhoods and businesses. But Mama, don't even think about objecting to the ideological racial hatred being hoisted upon your own children.

This is viewpoint discrimination, which is particularly disfavored by the courts because it restricts speech on a given subject matter Yeah, it's you know, this whole DOJ going after the parents I think that was more posturing than anything I'm not I'm not so sure how it is you know as and when they put stuff on the books just like when you had the thing say Oh, where any terrorist anywhere we

can go after him. That's true. It's on the books on the boat now and the only reason why they didn't they couldn't call people domestic terrorists up until this point because you had to have some official tie to a foreign terrorist group that's the only reason they can't hit you with like domestic terrorism

charges now. I did that I found that out my studies and wormhole On the January 6 thing that's the starting that's where it started that's where they started calling DVDs domestic violent extremists right so not not the same as a terrorist course not because a terrorist has to have ties to a foreign terrorist operation but yes, yeah, I mean No, no, what I'm saying is by law by law that's if you're gonna get charged, you had to have remember during during Obama there was some change and became

enemy combatant and there, there are some, there's like some wishy washy stuff they can just basically thing just pick you up in black bag and throw you and get mo anytime they want. Pretty much they have pretty much it. But that's my point. But it's on the books now that if you go to the wrong PTA meeting and say the wrong thing, we heard the story last Time of the guy that went to the Capitol didn't go in. And that guy overheard him talking, his neighbor overheard

him talking about it, and called the Fed zone, right? So I mean, let's not think this is far fetched, and this is where my problem comes in it is because now no one can be critical of the education their kids are getting, which infringes upon my rights, because if I want to go and say I say my piece at a PTA meeting or a school board meeting, I should have that right. I'm not sure have that I had that right. Not should I have that right. And it shouldn't be afforded to me by

the First Amendment, and it shouldn't be a fringe known. So this is where the rubber meets the road at for people like me, is that y'all can do whatever y'all want to do. But you start saying, I can't voice my opinion on an anti v entity that controls like, 1/3 of my kids day. And I have a problem with that. I have correspond with that. Have you been to a school meaning school board meeting?

I have not. I live in a county that the school superintendent is a I want to say not say Aunty, but he's not in favor mask. If you want your kids not to wear a mask, that's possible. They were one of the earliest schools that went back. So it's really like a it's kind of like a red stronghold in Northern Virginia. I mean, you see the demographics kind of changing, but I'm ground zero here in Northern Virginia. The county I live in, it leans more red, and scoot in the school

superintendent. He's not anti mass, but he's, you can get waivers. So your kids are having to wear masks to school, and, you know, was one of the first early schools in this area to go back to full day last year. So I'm gonna say it's just, it's just weird. And I was gonna go to the school board meetings and make a first but then I was like, you know, what, just sever ties with the entity? And then do it and do them kind of satisfy my dad. Just gonna say and then just do an episode of MO facts.

I could, yeah, I could definitely do that. Um, it's sad, because my dad, he's always been an educator, but professionally, he was educator. And I never thought it would get like this. But I saw the kind of handwriting on the wall when, towards the end of his career as a teacher. It was just changing so fast. So it can I say it's kind of sad. I mean, well, it's

sad. But it's also an opportunity more I think it's an opportunity for the the people and the communities themselves to retool, recreate their own their new schooling system. I mean, I will say this, I mean, I do. I am a owner of certain privileges that I've worked from home. You know, so that does help. All parents don't have that option. So that's one of the difficult things. I say. I think school could be

reimagined. I think that it could definitely be changes to be made where you don't have to, I mean, it doesn't have to be binary, like no public schools anymore. No, but I think I think it has to be reimagined. Well, it has to be it has no, I totally agree with you on that. It has to be reimagined, but it can't fix this. What's happened here is is no longer fixable. It just has

to be redone. I really, I really believe that I really think that there's so much middle management administration and it's poison, it's just poison, but I don't think you can cut the poison out. If the union's I mentioned that. Yeah, let's just keep it I mean, right. Well, the problem is that it's the unions and I know we have teachers out there but the unions even get in the teachers way. This is one of the problems is that teachers are underpaid.

The quality of teachers lateral entry I mean, there's no I know a lot of teachers and yes, there are technology issues. they complete the whole lockdown was a mess, was a mess. But why did it have to be that's why I don't understand of the zoom. Why is it so hard to teach? We have Khan Academy, we have all these things. Why's it that is so hard to get students in front of teachers. I know I don't understand what the problem. I know what the problem is because they have these

contract deals with these. These providers and these people that come systems that that's part of it, that that's part of the problem. The very, it's not that easy to teach via zoom, certainly if you've never been doing it. And I and I, my only, I have an example of this where, several years ago, I did a speech at a college in New Jersey, in a media class. And I was invited back to do that again, during the during the Rona. So the first time I was at

the school, and all the students were in the auditorium. The second time, I was on zoom, and I had 26 windows. And in soccer balls, you cannot make contact you cannot get and some of them were actually interested. So it's not just a bunch of kids who are forced to sit there, you cannot get the human contact that is critical for communicating ideas. It's not

there. And I'm sure that you know, distance learning and of course, lots of people do colleges, etc. But for young for young students, I think it's it's almost impossible for teachers to convey anything. Certainly if you're talking classrooms of 2030 strong, I'll push back against that, okay, because the kids have no problem connecting when they're gaming. Oh, listen to what I'm saying. The teachers, the teachers don't know how to do it. The teachers don't know how the kids

understand. The teachers do not know how to teach in this manner. No, I agree this, what I'm saying is that, but why are we not trying to fix the problem is because the teachers don't want to be phased out? Or this I mean, it's the same conversation we're having with the media, right? media doesn't fit the system to get good points. Yeah, it's the same thing. Do we restrict the kids because the kids have no problem with connecting? Well, I

actually liked your idea there. I mean, I liked the gaming idea, I think if kids could go in and could do like a grand theft auto, except, you know, it's their teacher, their shooting, engage that will be very engaging, right? Like you have a little like, and what I'm saying is, I don't accept that it can't be done. Because that's not how we think, right? I mean, you're podcasting. So I mean, it can be done, I'm just saying, I don't know if it makes sense to try and fix these people.

First of all, the quality is the quality of teachers. I mean, just keep it 1000. You can walk in with a four year degree and lateral entry, and walk into a classroom in a very short period of time. Of course, I don't want to generalize because it's

different from state to state. But with lateral entry, you don't have to have a four year teaching degree with the you know, saying with this kind of work, being a nurse, it's like, they're saying, okay, you have a four year degree you can come be a nurse, and they will teach you how to be a nurse on the fly. Right? What I really that's that's that's what we're doing with it. I'm most prized possession, not children. Unfortunately, yes. So that's

where it's broken, man. But you want to keep the wages down because the unions need to make their cut. So they can be at airports. As I said, I think homeschooling is the way to go. I think you're doing a good thing there. I think hybrid is the way to go. I'll just say that there's some kind there's some kind of Win Win there. But with that said, we got to go Thanks for more people that allow us to do what we do. I like brand new money. I just I don't want any money

We gave people a double dose the healing vaccine, wherever you want to call it. Yes. So I thought maybe we should call it the COVID-19 vaccine. I'm from Mr. Stephen Covey of Seven

Habits of Highly Effective People. This is something I want to start doing because it was so well received empathetic listening, I think we can make this not every show, but just make sure we give people a booster every now and again on their COVID-19 a vaccine. So this one is synergy. It should help. Habit six synergize in a sense, is the fruit of the spirit of Win Win habit for the spirit of seeking first to understand then to be understood. Habit five, then what happens is a very

powerful thing. When people begin to interact together genuinely and they're open to each other's influence, they begin to get new insight. Something happens to them both. It creates the possibility of third alternatives. Not the either or approach, not win lose, lose win, not compromise.

compromise is one plus one equals one and a half positives synergy is one plus one equals three negative synergy one plus one equals one half in other words so much of the effort and energy is spent in the add the serialism It's been a while since I've heard him There's your booster There's your third booster shot folks that should do it good to go now Yeah, but in all seriousness, that's how you beat this thing is is the empathetic listening is this energy is to seek first

to understand then to be understood because we don't want to end up like Mao's China no and I know people like all that their roll their eyes But yeah, no no no, that's whoever thought would see vaccine mandates over thought was locked down our whole country. Ah, time for that is over.

That's why I'm so aggressive about pushing, you know, the information of just understanding because you even poopoo the fact that well, it's just the DOJ and you know they're just put no just put something on the books that kind of posturing thing, but Dick Durbin is very serious. And this was him at the Kristin Clark's, um, a confirmation hearings. And I just I found I heard these two clips not found on troubling. So if people don't know this background, this is Senator Dick

Durbin, a Democrat from Illinois. He's the one that gave us Obama basically. Back Back when Obama was running, and now he's back at it again given us. Kristin Carr who is was then the nominee for the leaf Civil Rights Division at the DOJ T was confirmed but here's her, him speaking on her confirmation. As he note on his neck, he stared into a camera. With a walk with a look that haunts me to this day, those nine minutes and 29 seconds tooks George Floyd's life and changed

America's national conversation about law enforcement. Those nine minutes and 29 seconds sparked a global movement and compelled us to bear witness to the reality of racial injustice in our country. In this Senate, we are in a privileged position to face that reality and to continue America's long, sometimes bitter march toward equal justice under law. That is why I rise today in support of Kristin Clark's nomination to be Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division of the

Department of Justice. It's worth noting the history of this position. The Civil Rights Division is one of the most important components of the Justice Department. The Attorney General's Office has existed since 1789. The Justice Department itself was not created until after our Civil

War. During the days of reconstruction after that war, our nation resolve to take new steps to make a more perfect union through the 13th amendment, abolishing slavery slavery, the 14th Amendment's guarantee of due process and equal protection and the 15th amendments protection of all citizens fundamental right to vote. Always nice to see a Jamaican coming in to see to protect our our African Americans. Yes, so that's one thing and just for all clarity, she is

married to a white man, we all know the horrors. Now what I mean by that is that it's amazing that these people they get to be so well, they're above they're above it, they have special privileges and rights. You know, it's like they can they can do whatever they want. Which is you can match who you want, you can love who you want. My issue is that perspective. If you're dedicate your life to race and those kinds of things, you think one of those things is

passing those genetics on to you know, inside the culture. But it doesn't seem that way. And I think in in what my problem is this. When you look at Suzanne rice, when you look at Kamala Harris, when you look at this lady, it's a train there. What is the trend? Yeah, of course, I see the trend, the trend is non non African American African Americans. Right, that's that's my point. Like, how are you finding all these non African American African? or What can you say non

African American African Americans, right? Why you find all these? Well, it doesn't matter because they're dark. That's my point. My point is the perspective is lost. Because even if you married a black American man, and a reason why I'm saying this is because this was so important, important. brock obama's that he had that he had

a career, right, why is it not? in reverse? The same thing? Why are we not course if Obama was merits and we're just gonna pull the rug back for a minute, if Obama was married to a white woman, he will lose all racial credibility? Let's just keep this closely. But why is it not reciprocal? Because it's not fair. Now, I'm just saying like, I mean, I mean, why Yeah, big obviously, because Shut up, just shut up. They'll do whatever they want. I mean, it's, it's hypocritical. It's, it's, it's crazy.

Right? And but if you when you point that out, like I said, If Obama and Obama was aware of this, he knew he had to marry a Michelle is not say, Michelle itself, but he hadn't married a Michelle. It was he was saying it was he knew how it would be perceived, because they're like, well, you're not really one of us. But the fact that he was caught in that that gave him the

credit. Exactly. So I'm just wondering why it's not that's why I raised the issue of her race of her spouse, or interesting or her lineage because it's just not it's not. It's not fair. I think the lineage I think that said as a trend, I think that's interesting observation. It was the combination of both for me. Sure, like this was this

there. And I'm asking this from the point of why is this the combination that the powers that be are pushing to the top Cuz we all know that in these positions, you're kind of hand picked to be groomed for these positions. Definitely early on in your career. So what is going on here? So with that said, let's get into the second clip from Durban.

The Department of Justice was created after the passage of those amendments and entrusted with the responsibility to defend the rights of Americans, particularly the newly emancipated, formerly enslaved Americans. Given the department's immediate imperative to protect and preserve civil rights, President Ulysses S. Grant appointed Amos Ackerman to be the first Attorney General to lead this

new department. Why he had extensive experience in prosecuting voter intimidation as the US Attorney in the state of Georgia. More than 150 years later, the Civil Rights Division the Justice Department, now is entrusted with that constitutional responsibility. The Division enforces federal statutes prohibiting discrimination based on race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability,

religion, national origin and citizenship status. And justice, President Grant appointed a legal expert with a breadth of experience to lead the newly formed Justice Department in 1870. Today, President Joe Biden has chosen Kristin Clark to take up the mantle as the head of the Civil Rights Division. With her breadth of experience defending the civil rights of all Americans, Kristin Clark is singularly qualified to lead

this division, particularly at this moment in history. And Madam President, Kristin Clark, will be the first senate confirmed woman of color to do so. The first and there it is, that's what counts. That's what is it that who really cares if she's any good? She'll be a woman. She's dark. Yes, but the reason we did I'm sorry, did he actually say African American woman just want us to know color woman of color. Okay, so

he had that right. All right. Yes. The woman of color like I said, when I bring this up is because Clarence Thomas was railroaded and written down because of who he married. You see this why is this different? It's not really a but I have to point this out. Now I'll digress a bit but I want to go back to another point. Amos anchorman Why did he invoke that name? Why

that name specifically I'll explain to you why. Amos anchorman was famous for going after the KKK O his claim to fame now we're gonna go and get into Mr. Amos anchorman he's

passed. But yeah, this was he went after the KKK now Kristin Carr is gonna go after the KKK which you click here which kkp Wow, okay yeah yeah, that's that's the whole point this will be school board this comes from her desk all of it this is what this is about is going after first we all First of all, we have to label them as terrorists and then we have some is gonna invoke the same spirit as a as a criminal. Are you ready to hear about a miss anchorman?

Yes, one moment I wanted to add. Yes, that I think yes. Our friend Crenshaw, Kimberly Crenshaw, just because you brought it up in my I caught it earlier. I believe that she here is she assisted legal team presenting Anita Hill at the US Senate confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas Isn't that interesting? And I don't find it interesting but not surprising. No not at all. All right. Yes. Yes. I'm I'm very keen to hear about Mr. aikman all right 36 Fuck the police products

do poor job. This is okay that value for value. This is why value for value is so important. It was wasn't long enough to click into a separate clip. So they're going out of one segment on this podcast. This is was it behind the police with with Robert Evans. I don't know if you heard him or not. I mean Robert Robert at the movie. Producer Robert Evans. I don't know if that's the movie producer. I know he's a popular podcaster in journal Oh, no, no. Okay. And rapper, rap artists

propaganda, aka Jason petty. So they're going out of one segment and then they have to go into ads. And then they come out in the end into they're talking with Esther police. So no, they went into the ads of saying these the after police products Oh, I gotcha. wondering like what what what, what? I'm not getting flack for that? I mean No, I thought I'd left that in there. So you can you can play the first 10 seconds.

Yeah, of course we can let people know what they don't have to tolerate due to value for value. The police products were bad. Oh my gosh. You know, what I love is being back from ads, because it means that we can talk more about the horrific history of racism and law enforcement terror and trauma that's it's in my DNA and passed on generationally. Yes, she had a had an air horn there. So in 1870, President Grant began to lobby Congress to give him power to do something about

the Klan. Because again, local law enforcement was actively aiding and abetting the KKK. In 1870 and 1871. Congress passed the enforcement acts. These protected the rights of black men to vote hold office and serve on juries and generally enjoy equal protection under the law. The Ku Klux Klan acts, as they came to be known allowed President Grant to call up the army to order in order to arrest and break up the bands of

disguised night marauders. And we're gonna be like 99% critical of law enforcement on this podcast, but we got to be fair when it's important to be fair, and federal law enforcement did a pretty decent job on breaking up the Klan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is, this is where things get really complicated prop because a lot of the credit for this goes to Amos Ackerman, the Attorney General of the United States, Ackerman joined the republican party after the Civil War and became one of the

nation's most strenuous advocates for black suffrage. He was like, black people have the right to vote and hold office and we will I will make sure we enforce this with fucking riflemen if we have to. Okay, now, yeah, he's serious. He says hardcore. And we're so um, you heard what the Witcher had to deal with with ads? Oh, yeah. Hey, man, I couldn't believe that I was talking to Megyn Kelly. And then she she took a break to sell genu sell, which is some beauty product. It's sad.

You have this heavy conversation is like, Oh, we got to do a break. And now we're back so we can talk more about this oppressive racism. And the guy's like, yeah, this deep in my genetics that I pass along. This podcast is so cringe. Everything we do if you did it completely wrong. I'm sorry to say it but um, yeah, but you heard him get strong with it. Oh, yeah, he wouldn't force it with effin rifles he if he had to right. Mr. Ackerman has a very interesting past before he

started working for the DOJ. And here's where things get complicated because before he was a republican before he was the Attorney General, Amos Ackerman volunteered and fought in the Confederate Army.

People have layers of complication. People are complicated they contain minis Yeah, and this is for Amos This seems to have been like what it seems to been more a matter of like you hear about these folks who are like really loyal to their state for reasons Yeah, I have trouble understanding like he doesn't seem to have joined the Confederate Army specifically to fight for slavery although he fought for slavery because that's what the get better at army fought for.

But in his mind I think it was more like I'm really loyal to Georgia I don't know I can't get in the head of that guy but I guess if you can make that up he tried to afterwards yeah you know, I want to give it to the possibility that people probably hundreds of them at the time you know like you said just was like look we're down here it is what we do we fight for our way of life I guess that's right. And in the middle of that finally

had this like, you know, yeah, this is bullshit. You're saying and was like, but if you'd only as person for miles talking like this, it's probably hard to find some good community and you're probably gonna fumble and then you become this guy to where you're like, Hey, is one thing I can do. I could probably like dismantle this clan thing. That's the yeah thing to do. Yeah, this is where you see how history is. Not being taught crap My issue is from the left there all of you have anything to do

with Confederacy. We got to tear down your fact right away oh yeah right away. You gotta go looking at looking through the 2021 lens you look like a real racist right within here it's like well you know he kind of knew something that we like for a little while so that kind of erases everything that he did for the Confederacy. I know if you want to have it your way man, anything that Mr. aikman

stands for even when Dick Durbin brings him up? No, no he has to be shouted down because you know he fought to protect slavery as these gentlemen said he fought for slavery by their by their calculations which you see how it works about facts no never about facts even that's why he set it up the way he did with a strong language in the first clip like he said with effing rifles he was gonna do it like yeah we know it's another shooter drop

what is the point of this behind the police? Just to say how bad no no I mean what what is the point is it's a podcast right? Right. What is the point of the podcast you heard we said 99% critical equalities quite clear was about now that's that's the point of it and maybe he has a Mr Jason petty with him it's just like no you fought for the Confederacy that's there's no back seats on that. I mean, that's just if you're about the work that they're about

Yeah, yeah, their work yes. Yeah, it doesn't work. That's the that goes to show you that there. There's this all bullcrap. Yeah, it's all political. It's all about who we can get to manipulate people to go cast the vote at the end of the day. There's all this do you think they really know that these people's these these guys seem dumb? We're doing a podcast on it it should be there. What I'm saying is the emotional intelligence side of it. You know anytime you

say anything Confederate done yeah, you're done. It's a wrap. But it's like well Wes sanitized this guy cuz we kind of got to need him for what we need him for. The same way Dick Durbin did why didn't dig dirt and bring that up there. He was a former Confederate soldier. He just kind of like glossed over the whole thing. Well, we know why. Yeah. Right. So that the headline is DOJ confirmation receives praise for federal Confederate soldier, right? They will say it doesn't

matter. none of this matters to these people. They just talk out your side of their neck. Um, but it's like they have this it's not logical. It's not based in any Okay, well, let's weigh out what what these people impact was? No, it's just well they did something we like so just raise everything. We don't know anything about this guy. We didn't know what he did for his prior years. Right? Well, we're gonna do for

sure this podcast that these guys doing doing sucks. They really suck because they're being disingenuous, dishonest. Well, it continues on part three. Yeah, if there's a thing that can make up for volunteering to serve in the Confederate Army, I guess it's dismantling the KKK. I get it. Yeah, like that's a good that's a good, good, good. Paul, so now I want you to pay attention. Sorry about that. But I want you to pay attention to their definition of dismantling.

And now he's saying they dismantled the Klan, right in reconstruction. So that doesn't make any sense. But um, let's listen to their definition of this man. Yeah, if there's a thing that can make up for volunteering to serve in the Confederate Army, I guess it's dismantling the KKK?

Yeah, like that's a good that's a good, good, good. Yeah. So the worst clan violence was in South Carolina and grant declared martial law in that state, citing a condition of lawlessness, he suspended habeas corpus, and numerous Klansmen were rounded up by federal authorities, including Sheriff rice Rogers, who eat we have been talking about a lot, a lot

of Sheriff Scott drop pulled up in this. So the senate held extensive hearings where hundreds of black victims of the Klan were allowed to tell their stories to the nation, under ackermans. direction. 600 Klansmen were convicted and 65 of them sent to a federal penitentiary by 1872. The Klan was no longer a meaningful force in the United States. Frederick Douglass himself said that without precedent grants actions black Americans would have been trapped again in a condition

almost identical to slavery. That is probably true, but it's also true that grant kind of botched the landing on this one firing Ackerman to a piece is pathetic. rivals and commuting the sentences of some Klansmen in the bed for reconciliation. So again. Oh, so 600 arrested 66 cent the federal prison. And then grant goes and commute some of those 66 right to get right back out. Sounds like this melon into me. Yeah, seriously?

Well, it was enough to compensate for his fighting with the Confederate Army. So what? 66 arrest? Yeah, I mean, you could trip and follow CCC Klansmen? Back in those days. Yeah, for sure. And it seems like this dude was he was a what we talked about in the last show. A he was flipped. Right? He's like, Hey, you want your legacy? I will give us the clan, right? That's what it seems like to me. And then he was just abruptly fired one year after doing the job. And then grant goes back and commutes

their sentences does not make sense. And then they say, Oh, well do class dismantle us get back to business as usual. So putting ourselves back in that in those days. What was the point of this of this of this fake move? Oh, well. 39 grants presumed motivated motivations for suppressing the

Ku Klux Klan are dubious. Consider, for example, consider the experience of Amos Ackerman, his second Attorney General, Ackerman was the most vigorous of grants attorneys general in prosecuting the Klu Klux Klan. In order to expedite prosecutions, he expanded the powers of the then newly created federal Justice Department. About 600 Klan members were convicted. Yet grant abruptly asked her act Ackerman to resign

in December 1871. Partly at the prompting of Secretary of State Hamilton fish, Grant had misgivings about ackermans, quote, obsession, close quote, with the claim, perhaps more importantly, Ackerman also frustrated, important more than capitalists. He was, for example, critical of the questionable terms under which railroads often qualify for

federal subsidies. Racism was just as prevalent in the north as it was in the south, the only difference was that blacks represented about 1% 1% of the population of the organic republican states. Those states those same states would not have granted blacks have the right to vote, if blacks accounted for 40% of their population, as it did in the south, where blacks did account for 40% of the population and he actually spent more money appropriated by Congress to enforce the KKK

acts. He spent most of that money not in the south, but in the north in the big cities of the North to police the elections where the Irish were voting Oh wow. You know, there's a new book out about Ulysses Grant is it Yeah, yeah, I just saw I think just named Brett bear. Fox News Anchor wrote wrote a book about Ulysses S Grant. I

actually was thinking that's interesting. I should probably who read that I don't know anything about him doing that will give this would be a good motivation to read it

now. Yeah. But yeah, you saw it anchormen started stepping on the toes a big business that's right that's kind of what it'd be the equivalent probably to pharmaceuticals now and in this sway at the time um, and he had to go in he freed know some of the Klansmen I don't understand like how how do these facts line up for Dick Durbin listed here celebrate wants to celebrate No, Mr. Ackerman without you know

fully. If you want to be genuine, you say here's a man that was on the wrong side of history, but he tried to write himself and that's the way you would posture that right. Well, how about this? How about Dick Durbin wants to do the same thing. He wants to round up a bunch of annoying people and then let him go on the back end. Just to posture, just just a posture for not not dissimilar to the January 6 trespassers, yes. And I say trespasses because that's what

most of them are being held on. For now. Nine months. 10 months. What What goes what was found funny is here's an opportunity for Miss Kristin Clark, if I make sure I got her name, correct. You did. Oh, yes, clearly Kristin Clark, to be a

Amos anchorman. To hold big business accountable being the pharmaceutical industry and say, No, you can't infringe upon people's civil rights, for their personal beliefs, and you can't jab them, that would be appropriate from her certainly, as a quote, African American, you would think so, um, I was saying that's that's the point I'm trying to make, or just from the fact that she said, in many cases, protecting religious beliefs, and, you know, this is

not our first rodeo. So you're on the clock. If you started with, you're saying with Big Pharma, and allowing these things to happen, you're just a no, I spoke in the wheel of, you know, oppression that used to claim to be against I mean, that's what I'm saying he, but this is the point facts do not matter. As your clips you gave me about a mass formation, he's gonna point out the facts do not matter.

So what happens is that, at that moment, when people experience this mental intoxication, it doesn't matter anymore, whether the narrative is correct or wrong, even blatantly wrong. What matters is that it leads up to this mental intoxication. And that's why they continue to go along with the narrative, even if they could know, by thinking for one second, that it is wrong. Because for people, it doesn't matter when the narrative is wrong, and what we all try to do, as we all try to

show constantly that the narrative is wrong. But for people, that's not what it is all about. It's all about this, the fact that they don't want to go back to this painful state of free floating anxiety. Yeah, I know, I can see by the title of your next clips that I should just wait to tell you. What he said is the solution. Or do you want to know now what's outside say this, let me let me set it up. I have ironclad proof

that reptilians are behind it all. Now you can go ahead and say what you need no screws, I forget what I was gonna say I want to see the proof reptilians are behind it. Let's go 41. I want to start by talking about a problem. So for me, when I'm approached with conflict, my immediate responses, I'm angry, I lunge. And oftentimes, even if my response is right, in theory, the collateral damage that I caused by standing up for something, there's so much worse than they originally, yeah, well

experienced by everybody. And let's understand why it happened. First, wild animals are wild animals, because they only have a little tiny brain. And that little tiny brain keeps them alive, is about fear and revenge and reproduction, and anger. And let's go. And human beings have that same brain. But we evolved to have this other brain in front, the one that does ballet, the one that does big ideas. But that brain is

slow. Compared to our wild animal brain, our Lizard Lizard brain is right next to our spinal cord, and it can go back and it floods your brain with chemicals instantly. And this brain takes three more seconds to catch up. By the time that happens to really difficult for that brain to say calm down. Here's the right answer. You just have to walk on an airplane

when they're experiencing turbulence. What we know is planes don't crash because it turbulence, but people freak because the lizard brain takes over we're gonna die. But out of sort of the lizard brain has come this idea of the resistance How does that work? So Steve pressfield coined the term and what it means is that there's part of us that doesn't want to be seen so that's what writer's block comes from. No one actually has writer's block

just like no one gets plumbers block. You just do plumbing you can't write it is the act of writing means you'll be seen forever by strangers. Your nose, literally behind it. They want us to be like them. Thinking with that little reptilian brains Yes, they do. Yes they do. Yes they do. They do. And this down on me I know it sounds far fetched. No, but no, but if there's one thing we connect on Moby lizard people, we connect deeply on lizard people.

What if not the fact that they have scaly skin and little beady eyes and long lizard tongue, it's their brain. They can't think past destroy or, you know, make make babies eat or destroys.

Yes, that's an all they're able to think on the level of and they want to bring us down to that level of thinking, through binaries, thought That's the point that's that's why they want to destroy humanity, of jealousy of our ability to have compassion, and to be able to rationalize and think on our second and third parts of our brain that they don't have. That's the whole point in the lizard people behind it. I know people are rolling their eyes right now Sam mo has flipped

this week. No, no. That's the point. That's where they want us at. This is what this gentleman that clips you gave me you supply me with my ask to say this is what they want. They want us in the little pack or whatever. I don't know what you call a pack of lizards. It's a brood of lizards. I think it's Brutus snakes. Right. So I think we know it's a brunette. I don't know. Bro, we're brutal. I'm so much better. Oh, it's no wait. It's called a lounge?

around? Yes. A group of lizards is called the lounge. Whether that's even better. I know. I love this. So they want us all in the lounge of lizards, just reacting with our little lizard brains. And not using what we have I what we've been blessed with the ability to use the second and third components of our brain to give us higher thought. And that's what they're jealous about. That's that's why they want to destroy us. That's the whole thing. The lizard people

behind it. And I put my I put my whole chest on. Well, that's interesting, because when I said to Professor De Smet, I said, Alright, so we have this severe hypnotic state of the leaders. What do we do? He said, The most important thing is keep talking. Keep speaking your truth. The minute you stop talking is all over. And he said memes and mockery. That's the way to destroy. Why? He says he says, it breaks the spell. Because why? I mean, we had to look at it. Why, though? Because

it only our human brain can can interpret it. Yes, you're right. The sarcasm, the mass humor, and that's why it really is as the most effective tool on their systems because they can't run our algorithm to the text sarcasm. No way can that well, that may be one day, but nine is not here. How can you show the Spider Man pointing at the Spider Man meme? And have to take what you mean by that? If you can't. I tell you, they want us dumbed down. It's it's this is the reason why

they're coming to schools. It's a reason why they're coming for the children. Oh, this has been going on for a long time. Of course it was. Absolutely Yeah. But it's the closest they ever been to it. Because as you said, I'm the same way kind of like teachers and media outdated. Parents are outdated as well this we're at the same time of you came about when television was first, like really becoming television. And now parents had no clue what television was.

It's like this a stupid box to show pictures and play music and play you know, play sound. They don't understand the cultural integration it has the same way with smartphones and technology is now the parents like kind of outdated? Sure. So this is the opportune time to seize the young and turn them into little baby lizard. Well, I'm not I'm not gonna let that happen. I will fight tooth and nail to stop the lizard people from stealing our children.

That statement Do you like it? Go so me. Let's go ahead and wrap up the lizard brain part two. How does one when they're trying to make a huge change and take a huge risk? silenced the lizard brains around them. I wish we could get rid of it. You can't. The harder you try to get rid of it, the stronger it becomes. What you can do is acknowledge it go with and not but I feel this and I'm going to

do something that works as opposed to I feel this. But I'm unable to move forward so the fear won't go away, especially if we wanted to. But what we can do is learn to dance with one way to think about it. No one says to their coach, how can I run the Boston Marathon without getting tired? Getting tired part of the deal? Well, the same thing is true with the work that

matters. How can I do it without being afraid you can't there's something I carry with me and Pema chodron called this shepstone and the idea is that When the fear shows up, there you go. acknowledge your shows up, I don't know that I identified, the lizard shows up, it might be fear, it might be anger, it's all that primeval stuff. So the best advice I give people all the time is you should start a blog and you should write a blog every day.

I've done 7512 haven't missed a day in more than 15 years. And the reason is simple. Because it means every night you go to bed saying tomorrow, I need to say something in writing. This is gonna be out there for years to come. But if every day we're writing something down and putting it out there to the universe. Yeah, we're taking a risk, and we're gonna have to live with those words and own those words forever.

Exactly. That isn't that great. But do you worry that in 2018, we're not looking to solve for getting out of lizard brain. It seems like lizard brain is getting celebrated and winning the game. Wow. And that was from what? That was from NBC better rules. That is with Seth Godin. Oh, I recognize I know Seth Godin. Sure. Oh, I recognize the voice. Never surprised me who you know, you would be surprised to see that you don't know someone was

it was interesting. We were just talking about Seth Godin, because he's doing some other he's all over the place. I would know he was doing a thing where climate change book. He's a marketing guy. Now. That's why in this context, Seth Godin knows what he's talking about. He knows very well how the lizard brain works, because that's how he made his career in advertising. And advertising plays on your lizard brain sure does watch the commercials on hire personal truck. Yeah, I had to go get a

new truck. Or my my mate, or my spouse or mate. would think I'm less than, you know, the other guy. Oh, no, it's like, of course. And if you drink this beer, look at the women you're gonna get? Yes. Yeah, he goes all back to where we are under attack by lizard people. I mean, that's just say what's in you can take that in, in the metaphorical way that I mean it right now as in. We're surrounded by lizard brain, people that only think

with the most base human values. And that's a very, that's how you end up with Mao's China. And mo facts with Adam Curry is here to help ourselves and you fight the lizard brain takeover. The fact that you're listening probably means you're already in a good place. But for sure, certainly with the outrage that's going on everywhere today. We're all just seconds away from that flip that they were talking about. Boom in a heartbeat. The lizard brain kicks in, you're you're out of control.

Right and you and you make a mistake that you regret for a very long time if you live in that space for too long. Well, that's my wrap. Hey, Mo thank you this, this was a I like this a lot. I learned so much. Now I feel a lot more empowered about being able to speak about the critical race theory, controversy. And of course, you know, 67 episodes of schooling before this has helped me understand a lot more about the people and the players involved. This is another topper man, thank you so much.

I appreciate the album. And as I always say, pay attention to everything and the truth reveal itself. See in two weeks mo and the live next Wednesday, eight o'clock. You liked the song. I believe that children are our future. Teach them well and let them be even way. Show them all the beauty they possess in sa and give them a sense of pride. To make it easier. Let the Children's Law remind us how we used to be. Everybody's searching for hebo people need

someone to look up to. I never found anyone. My knee a lonely place to be. And so I learned to depend I decided long ago to walk in any one shadow. At least leave no matter they take me. They can't take away was happening to me is easy to achieve the greatest if by chance that's a special play you to follow. Thank you
