1
00:00:00,120 –> 00:00:01,360
Speaker 1: Still ring.

2
00:00:03,480 –> 00:00:39,399
Speaker 2: Doom.

3
00:00:39,600 –> 00:00:43,759
Speaker 1: All the things have already crashed, all of them, and

4
00:00:43,840 –> 00:00:48,799
I’ve got them going again. So I am confident that

5
00:00:48,880 –> 00:00:50,759
we are through with the hard part and we’re going

6
00:00:50,799 –> 00:00:54,479
to have a lovely, lovely, lovely show tonight. So much

7
00:00:54,520 –> 00:00:57,479
to talk about. I’m Alan Ray. It’s Sunday Night with

8
00:00:57,520 –> 00:01:02,039
Alan Ray. It is the show where we look around

9
00:01:02,079 –> 00:01:05,040
this giant blue ghetto rock that we were hurtling through space,

10
00:01:05,280 –> 00:01:08,920
unimaginable speech, and we asked the eternal question, what the white,

11
00:01:09,040 –> 00:01:12,920
white world of sports is going on here? If you know,

12
00:01:13,200 –> 00:01:18,359
tell me please, I don’t know. Okay. First off, wow,

13
00:01:18,719 –> 00:01:25,200
Michigan basketball ninety five to sixty two over Tennessee. You know,

14
00:01:25,319 –> 00:01:27,200
I try not to get too much into sports ball.

15
00:01:27,239 –> 00:01:28,840
I mean, you know, Jeff and I went on a

16
00:01:28,840 –> 00:01:31,680
hockey rant a few weeks ago. It was freaking glorious.

17
00:01:31,719 –> 00:01:36,359
I loved it. But I tell you what brackets if

18
00:01:36,400 –> 00:01:38,439
you’re if you are, if you put money on a

19
00:01:38,480 –> 00:01:42,000
college bracket, first of all, due to your local therapist,

20
00:01:42,120 –> 00:01:44,439
because you’re crazy. I would never do that, but the

21
00:01:44,599 –> 00:01:46,959
you know, I fill them out just for fun, and

22
00:01:47,000 –> 00:01:51,879
they’re screwed. They’re scrub screwed, and you know, I’m sort

23
00:01:51,879 –> 00:01:54,159
of a closet Bills fan. I’m not gonna lie to you.

24
00:01:54,239 –> 00:01:56,879
I spent time in Tennessee. Tennessee is the only other

25
00:01:56,920 –> 00:02:01,079
state besides Michigan that I’ve ever actually lived in, and

26
00:02:01,959 –> 00:02:03,519
you can’t live there for a couple of years without

27
00:02:03,519 –> 00:02:06,079
becoming a Valls fan. So I was really hoping it

28
00:02:06,120 –> 00:02:08,120
would be like, I don’t know, like ninety four to

29
00:02:08,199 –> 00:02:11,400
ninety five buzzer beater, you know, just at the end,

30
00:02:11,560 –> 00:02:16,520
Oh no, no, Now, Tennessee looked like they they forgot

31
00:02:16,599 –> 00:02:19,319
there was a basketball game, and the cheerleaders just had

32
00:02:19,319 –> 00:02:21,520
to cover for him. It was it was sad. It

33
00:02:21,560 –> 00:02:26,319
was sad. I expected better from from Tennessee. I love

34
00:02:26,360 –> 00:02:28,280
those guys. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not mocking them

35
00:02:28,280 –> 00:02:31,879
at all. I really was hoping, you know. It’s just like, boy,

36
00:02:32,039 –> 00:02:33,680
I hope they do well. You know, I’m like, yeah,

37
00:02:33,719 –> 00:02:36,439
Michigan’s gotta win, but I really hope Tennessee, you know,

38
00:02:36,560 –> 00:02:39,439
at least hangs in there and does that thing. Didn’t

39
00:02:39,439 –> 00:02:43,479
do it? Welcome people in chat we got already. He’s first,

40
00:02:43,919 –> 00:02:48,400
like usual, raptor good evening. I mean, I don’t know,

41
00:02:48,439 –> 00:02:50,840
can I can I repost my own show from here.

42
00:02:50,879 –> 00:02:54,240
I don’t know. He hit the button, Oh, I can repost.

43
00:02:54,639 –> 00:02:59,240
There we go and rapped, reposted, and Jeffrey posted. Jeff

44
00:02:59,319 –> 00:03:01,080
wasn’t here tonight. He’s got a bit of a headache.

45
00:03:01,120 –> 00:03:04,000
We were talking backstage. He’s not feeling all the greatest.

46
00:03:04,039 –> 00:03:06,439
So I hope it gets better. Joins up with us

47
00:03:06,479 –> 00:03:11,599
next week. The Vincent Charles Project was absolutely freaking hysterical.

48
00:03:11,680 –> 00:03:15,000
If you’re not tuning in at six pm on a

49
00:03:15,039 –> 00:03:18,039
Sunday night, you better have a good reason. That is

50
00:03:18,080 –> 00:03:25,120
some serious, serious, good entertainment. They’re just, oh my gosh,

51
00:03:25,439 –> 00:03:28,479
there’s some of the things that just it’s so crazy.

52
00:03:28,800 –> 00:03:31,560
Pj’s in the chat. Good evening, PJ. Glad to have you.

53
00:03:32,039 –> 00:03:34,280
So anyways, we don’t sports ball. Not gonna talk anything

54
00:03:34,280 –> 00:03:37,840
about Michigan basketball. Come my Michigan guys, Michigan girls. I

55
00:03:38,000 –> 00:03:40,879
don’t know how the hockey team’s doing right now. I

56
00:03:41,000 –> 00:03:45,120
watched them absolutely blow a beautiful four to one lead

57
00:03:45,199 –> 00:03:48,520
and it could be tied by now with Minnesota. So

58
00:03:49,800 –> 00:03:52,240
that’s the stuff that interests me. But the basketball team

59
00:03:52,479 –> 00:03:56,800
go for it, guys, big big turnaround from just a

60
00:03:56,840 –> 00:04:00,319
few years ago when we had out of don’t know

61
00:04:00,439 –> 00:04:04,840
a thug coaching our team getting into trouble all the time,

62
00:04:04,840 –> 00:04:08,159
getting thrown out, getting legal trouble. You know, you gotta

63
00:04:08,199 –> 00:04:11,199
do better. You got to do better. And that isn’t

64
00:04:11,479 –> 00:04:13,719
racist at all. I mean, I don’t care what color

65
00:04:13,759 –> 00:04:16,120
you are when when you are representing a college team,

66
00:04:16,199 –> 00:04:18,839
college sports, you have to do better. You have to

67
00:04:19,040 –> 00:04:23,920
act like you’re representing an institution of higher learning. And

68
00:04:23,959 –> 00:04:27,160
when you don’t, it reflects on the whole team, just

69
00:04:27,399 –> 00:04:31,079
like the football program. You know, all this stuff going

70
00:04:31,120 –> 00:04:33,160
on with Shron Moore. Now we’re finding out that some

71
00:04:33,279 –> 00:04:35,959
of that could have been a setup, could have been

72
00:04:36,639 –> 00:04:38,519
somebody trying to get fifteen minutes of fame and a

73
00:04:38,519 –> 00:04:40,959
few million dollars. We don’t know. It’s going to be

74
00:04:41,000 –> 00:04:43,720
interesting to see that. And Sharon Moore, I truly believe

75
00:04:43,759 –> 00:04:47,439
he’s a pretty good guy, all right. People seem to

76
00:04:47,480 –> 00:04:49,040
really like him. He seems to be all right, and

77
00:04:49,040 –> 00:04:51,000
they were pretty shocked at all that was going on.

78
00:04:51,920 –> 00:04:55,759
And there are gold diggers in sports ball who will

79
00:04:55,800 –> 00:04:58,120
do anything they can to tap into the money so

80
00:04:58,240 –> 00:04:59,519
they can be taking care of for the rest of

81
00:04:59,560 –> 00:05:03,199
their life. I don’t know how any of that’s going

82
00:05:03,240 –> 00:05:08,879
to work out, but it’s crazy. So speaking of speaking

83
00:05:08,920 –> 00:05:10,879
of institutions of higher learning, I want to talk to

84
00:05:10,920 –> 00:05:13,680
you about something tonight, something that happened this week that

85
00:05:13,839 –> 00:05:16,480
disturbed me. Now, I could probably get in trouble for

86
00:05:16,519 –> 00:05:18,000
talking about this, but I’m going to because I’m not

87
00:05:18,040 –> 00:05:19,839
going to mention any names. I’m not going to mention

88
00:05:19,920 –> 00:05:23,600
any locations. I’m gonna mention anything except I heard something

89
00:05:23,639 –> 00:05:27,079
over the week in person that disturbed me. Now, this

90
00:05:27,120 –> 00:05:36,360
person was discussing building plans, long term building plans for

91
00:05:36,480 –> 00:05:41,040
a city, for a town. Now, it is no secret

92
00:05:41,160 –> 00:05:47,360
that planners most towns, most cities especially, they’re left leaning. Yes,

93
00:05:47,439 –> 00:05:49,360
there is a train going through. When’s the last time

94
00:05:49,399 –> 00:05:51,600
you’ve heard a train on my show? They’re still out there,

95
00:05:51,600 –> 00:05:55,120
they’re still going through. And as you know it, as

96
00:05:55,519 –> 00:05:57,959
higher up gas prices go, the more the trains go through.

97
00:05:58,879 –> 00:06:01,040
We’ll get into that again some other time. And I really,

98
00:06:01,319 –> 00:06:03,480
I really hope gas prices can go down because this

99
00:06:03,519 –> 00:06:05,639
is going to trigger some This is going to trigger

100
00:06:05,680 –> 00:06:07,439
a lot of fuel for the left if they don’t,

101
00:06:07,680 –> 00:06:11,879
I’m just saying. Anyways, this person was discussing plans for

102
00:06:12,319 –> 00:06:18,879
the town, and it’s no secret that most city planners

103
00:06:18,879 –> 00:06:23,519
on the left want vehicle traffic completely out of their

104
00:06:23,519 –> 00:06:27,959
downtown areas, especially by twenty thirty. We know that they

105
00:06:28,120 –> 00:06:30,319
they That was one of another one of those things

106
00:06:30,360 –> 00:06:34,000
about that’s it’s a conspiraency theory that turned into a well, yeah,

107
00:06:34,720 –> 00:06:37,079
we really are doing it, but it’s for the batter

108
00:06:38,240 –> 00:06:40,600
And what disturbed me. I mean, we know all this stuff,

109
00:06:40,600 –> 00:06:44,079
this is no big deal, but the person was openly

110
00:06:44,279 –> 00:06:50,800
discussing changing the thinking of generations coming up until they

111
00:06:50,879 –> 00:06:56,399
accepted mass transportation over the freedom of individual transportation like

112
00:06:56,480 –> 00:07:01,079
cars and trucks. Most people and catch that little reference.

113
00:07:01,120 –> 00:07:05,160
I did. I wasn’t offended. I don’t get offended. We’ll

114
00:07:05,160 –> 00:07:07,879
talk about being offended later on the show. But I

115
00:07:09,399 –> 00:07:13,879
guess you know that they’re doing it, but to hear

116
00:07:13,959 –> 00:07:15,639
it come out of their mouth. And this is a

117
00:07:15,639 –> 00:07:18,639
person that I said, I respect, really I do. I

118
00:07:19,399 –> 00:07:22,800
know people are like laugh nobody on the right. Okay,

119
00:07:23,199 –> 00:07:25,360
I respect people that I respect, all right, this person

120
00:07:25,519 –> 00:07:27,839
is is a pretty good person, and I do believe

121
00:07:27,879 –> 00:07:33,279
this person really believes that they are doing good. But

122
00:07:33,399 –> 00:07:42,680
to openly discuss basically brainwashing our youth into giving up

123
00:07:42,720 –> 00:07:48,120
their freedoms, brainwashing our youth and too, and and swaying

124
00:07:48,199 –> 00:07:51,199
them and telling them that you know you have to

125
00:07:51,199 –> 00:07:54,439
give up your individual freedom. Yes, we know. You want

126
00:07:54,439 –> 00:07:57,759
to drive your vehicle to where you’re going so you

127
00:07:57,839 –> 00:08:00,519
can get out of where you’re going quicker and easier

128
00:08:00,519 –> 00:08:03,759
of something you know, And your reason is your reason.

129
00:08:04,360 –> 00:08:11,879
No openly discussing brainwashing our youth into accepting what they

130
00:08:12,519 –> 00:08:18,959
want instead of individual freedom. It’s disturbing. And I know

131
00:08:19,079 –> 00:08:22,040
they’ve been doing it for a long time. I’ve been

132
00:08:22,040 –> 00:08:23,600
telling you they’ve been doing it for a long time.

133
00:08:24,519 –> 00:08:26,480
It’s just like when we used to sit here and

134
00:08:27,439 –> 00:08:30,959
talk about the intentional dumbing down of America’s youth. That

135
00:08:31,040 –> 00:08:35,080
used to be a great, big, huge, Oh boy, that’s

136
00:08:35,120 –> 00:08:38,639
Alex Jones type stuff right there, until it’s not Alex

137
00:08:38,720 –> 00:08:41,240
Jones type stuff, until they actually openly talk about it.

138
00:08:42,600 –> 00:08:46,320
They don’t want you to be a critical thinker. They

139
00:08:46,360 –> 00:08:52,919
want you to be just smart enough to accept their socialism.

140
00:08:53,240 –> 00:08:57,039
When they wrap it in big, multi syllable words, it

141
00:08:57,120 –> 00:09:05,360
make it sound so inviting. It’s just disturbing, and it

142
00:09:05,399 –> 00:09:06,919
tells you something. And I want to I want to

143
00:09:06,919 –> 00:09:09,600
talk to you about this. The Left is in it

144
00:09:09,679 –> 00:09:14,320
for the long game. Okay. Oh sure they might lose

145
00:09:14,639 –> 00:09:20,200
here and there, but overall they’re talking about generations. They

146
00:09:20,399 –> 00:09:22,720
understand it’s not going to happen overnight. It might be

147
00:09:22,759 –> 00:09:26,799
two three more generations for they can realize their wet

148
00:09:26,879 –> 00:09:31,360
dream of socialism and communism. They understand it’s not an

149
00:09:31,399 –> 00:09:35,120
immediate change. So you have to be advised. They’re not

150
00:09:35,240 –> 00:09:40,039
going away. They’re after your children, and your children’s children

151
00:09:40,120 –> 00:09:45,000
and their children after them. They are perfectly okay with

152
00:09:45,480 –> 00:09:49,000
brainwashing the youth of this nation into accepting restrictions to

153
00:09:49,039 –> 00:09:54,840
their freedoms, into accepting loss of their liberty so that

154
00:09:55,480 –> 00:10:01,279
quote those who know better unquote can gently and lovingly

155
00:10:01,519 –> 00:10:08,919
lead them to a better life, a better way. Folks,

156
00:10:09,039 –> 00:10:13,240
we didn’t get to this point overnight where we are

157
00:10:13,320 –> 00:10:16,159
right now. We didn’t get here overnight, and we are

158
00:10:16,200 –> 00:10:21,000
not going to fix this overnight. If we, as freedom

159
00:10:21,039 –> 00:10:25,960
loving citizens of this nation, as conservatorians, conservatives, whatever you

160
00:10:26,000 –> 00:10:28,519
want to call yourself, people on the right, if we

161
00:10:28,600 –> 00:10:31,639
do not adopt a long term plan to take this

162
00:10:31,759 –> 00:10:38,759
nation back from communists and socialists, we’re finished. We are finished.

163
00:10:40,519 –> 00:10:43,799
These people, you call them whatever you want to call them,

164
00:10:43,840 –> 00:10:46,399
You can call them any slur, any name in the book,

165
00:10:46,679 –> 00:10:51,679
but I will give them this. They are committed to

166
00:10:51,960 –> 00:10:56,159
taking this nation down, committed, and they are patient, and

167
00:10:56,200 –> 00:11:00,039
they are organized, and they are funded. What can we

168
00:11:00,279 –> 00:11:04,360
say about the right except we sit here and nitpick

169
00:11:04,519 –> 00:11:08,720
at each other like dogs fighting over a chunk of meat.

170
00:11:09,240 –> 00:11:11,759
And sometimes I get really frustrated. Sometimes it’s just like

171
00:11:11,840 –> 00:11:13,159
I want to turn my back to the whole thing

172
00:11:13,200 –> 00:11:15,399
and go, you know what, you get what you deserve

173
00:11:15,480 –> 00:11:21,639
because you can’t get your heads out of your own butts.

174
00:11:21,679 –> 00:11:25,720
And I understand, I understand that one of the keys

175
00:11:25,759 –> 00:11:32,240
to rugged individualism is run an individualism. We don’t think

176
00:11:32,879 –> 00:11:37,200
in herds, we don’t think in groups. We don’t blindly

177
00:11:37,320 –> 00:11:42,559
accept each other’s ways or each other’s opinions. We argue,

178
00:11:42,679 –> 00:11:45,639
we argue like a bunch of Baptists over a scripture,

179
00:11:46,360 –> 00:11:52,240
no matter what. But because we’re like that, we’re going

180
00:11:52,279 –> 00:11:57,279
to lose this nation over a highly I don’t know,

181
00:11:58,279 –> 00:12:05,559
organized group of socialists, neo socialist and neo communist lemmings

182
00:12:05,759 –> 00:12:08,399
who are more than happy to just lead us right

183
00:12:08,480 –> 00:12:13,399
over the cliff into the water to drown. Do I

184
00:12:13,440 –> 00:12:15,679
skip to this, Yeah, let’s do this while I got

185
00:12:15,679 –> 00:12:17,600
it here, while I was fresh in my mind, I

186
00:12:17,759 –> 00:12:21,480
just brought the just ran into this and I’ve been

187
00:12:21,600 –> 00:12:30,159
laughing about it, but just saying them over the weekend.

188
00:12:31,279 –> 00:12:39,759
I guess what was this? This is the the Labor Party, No,

189
00:12:39,840 –> 00:12:43,000
not the Labor Party, it’s the New Democratic Party in Canada,

190
00:12:43,320 –> 00:12:46,919
which is the third largest party in Canada, had their conference.

191
00:12:48,279 –> 00:12:51,559
Now I just said what I did. Okay, I said

192
00:12:51,559 –> 00:12:54,399
what I did. I said what I said because I’m

193
00:12:54,399 –> 00:13:00,440
worried about it, but also it’s hysterical and it’s scary

194
00:13:00,480 –> 00:13:04,120
because this is the world that we’re running into. Anyways,

195
00:13:04,240 –> 00:13:09,200
this the NDP had their conference this weekend, and I

196
00:13:09,279 –> 00:13:11,919
want to play you some cuts from this conference. The

197
00:13:12,399 –> 00:13:14,440
I don’t know what this thing is. Is it a guy?

198
00:13:14,639 –> 00:13:19,480
Is it a girl? I don’t know, it’s a it’s

199
00:13:19,480 –> 00:13:24,600
a moron. He she it is up there. Oh my gosh,

200
00:13:24,639 –> 00:13:27,200
I can’t even describe it. She looks like a blonde

201
00:13:27,240 –> 00:13:29,240
half hitler is what she looks like, to tell you

202
00:13:29,240 –> 00:13:32,639
the truth. And they’re all very sanctimonious, and they’re all

203
00:13:33,559 –> 00:13:35,440
I’ve never seen anything like it. I want to play

204
00:13:35,480 –> 00:13:38,120
a couple of excerpts from this. Okay, it was basically

205
00:13:38,200 –> 00:13:39,960
a wind point ahead.

206
00:13:40,200 –> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 3: It’s got point of privilege. The microphone seemed really low today.

207
00:13:44,000 –> 00:13:46,519
It’s hard to hear everyone at the mic between the

208
00:13:46,559 –> 00:13:49,360
background noise and the volume in here. But the microphones

209
00:13:49,440 –> 00:13:51,759
is really hard to hear, and the cl closed cops.

210
00:13:51,759 –> 00:13:54,159
She also is slower to make it hard to keep

211
00:13:54,240 –> 00:13:57,559
up with what’s going on. Thank you, delegate.

212
00:13:57,639 –> 00:13:59,879
Speaker 4: I have the hearing impairments and I’m struggling to hear

213
00:14:00,039 –> 00:14:01,759
the delegates, and I know that you are too.

214
00:14:03,519 –> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 1: Okay, it was like this the whole time. Here’s another one.

215
00:14:08,879 –> 00:14:09,759
Speaker 5: Yes, microphone too.

216
00:14:09,799 –> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 4: Please.

217
00:14:11,879 –> 00:14:15,919
Speaker 6: My name is Mastura Tasnim’m she. My pronouns are she they.

218
00:14:15,960 –> 00:14:21,480
I’m from Ontario, Hello, Bojoux. As we conduct this convention

219
00:14:21,799 –> 00:14:26,000
today and the past two days, right now there’s discussions

220
00:14:26,000 –> 00:14:30,159
of ten thousand American men and women being sent to Iran,

221
00:14:30,440 –> 00:14:34,440
being deployed just to be part of this blood.

222
00:14:34,159 –> 00:14:37,639
Speaker 1: Bat Canada cannot.

223
00:14:37,600 –> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 6: And will not be part of the legacy of blood

224
00:14:41,320 –> 00:14:45,679
that was built in Iraq, in Palestine and now in Iran.

225
00:14:46,240 –> 00:14:50,399
This is a no question debate. I call this question

226
00:14:50,879 –> 00:14:52,000
Adam and chairs.

227
00:14:52,279 –> 00:14:52,639
Speaker 7: Thank you.

228
00:14:53,320 –> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: Here we go listen to this. Your voice’s quite well made.

229
00:15:00,080 –> 00:15:00,799
Speaker 8: The speaker.

230
00:15:00,840 –> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 1: I’ll again thank delegates not to call me madame Cherr

231
00:15:04,120 –> 00:15:06,519
who madame a Presidents, I’m a non binary person. My

232
00:15:06,600 –> 00:15:10,360
pronouns are they them? She’s a non binary person. Her

233
00:15:10,440 –> 00:15:14,679
pronouns are they them? There? It we y’all? I mean?

234
00:15:14,720 –> 00:15:18,039
And if you see the sanctimonious, nasty looking thing. Okay,

235
00:15:18,039 –> 00:15:21,080
here’s another one. And they handed out victim cards. They

236
00:15:21,120 –> 00:15:23,360
handed out victim cards at the door. Here’s here’s the

237
00:15:23,440 –> 00:15:24,080
victim card one.

238
00:15:24,120 –> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 5: Here, here’s point.

239
00:15:25,679 –> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 7: There’s a point of privilege on microphone one.

240
00:15:28,039 –> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: Then we’ll go to microphone three.

241
00:15:31,080 –> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 7: Yes, hello, I was standing here with my gender equity card.

242
00:15:34,559 –> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 6: Before you call it on the previous speaker, we’ll.

243
00:15:36,720 –> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: Stop it right there, a gender equity card. She was

244
00:15:40,000 –> 00:15:43,559
standing there with her gender equity card. It’s a green card.

245
00:15:43,919 –> 00:15:46,200
It means I have gender equity. It’s it’s it’s it’s

246
00:15:46,240 –> 00:15:52,279
a point of privilege. My god. Anyways, carrying on my

247
00:15:52,320 –> 00:15:54,519
point of privilege, I would like I’m the previous speaker.

248
00:15:55,240 –> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 5: That’s my point of privilege.

249
00:15:56,279 –> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 9: I would like her I.

250
00:15:56,879 –> 00:15:59,639
Speaker 3: Will explain this speaking order which is fixed that I

251
00:15:59,639 –> 00:16:02,159
cannot which is the pro con rotation.

252
00:16:02,559 –> 00:16:05,039
Speaker 1: You can move yourself up a line that you’re standing on.

253
00:16:05,240 –> 00:16:10,600
I am pro and I was we went you went pro,

254
00:16:10,919 –> 00:16:14,440
you went pro, and my plan was to go con.

255
00:16:14,600 –> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 7: The speaker at Con, Mike three, also has a speaking card. Yesterday,

256
00:16:19,440 –> 00:16:23,799
this card was used in an inappropriate matter. Oh, I

257
00:16:23,919 –> 00:16:27,919
understand in Ontario, we know this is equity, even if

258
00:16:27,960 –> 00:16:31,399
that this was also used inappropriate in terms of gender.

259
00:16:31,960 –> 00:16:34,960
I want everyone to be mindful that these cards for

260
00:16:35,080 –> 00:16:39,480
individuals like myself who identify as a black woman have

261
00:16:39,600 –> 00:16:42,039
no value outside of this space.

262
00:16:47,360 –> 00:16:53,679
Speaker 1: It was a paint card. It wasn’t even a black card. Okay.

263
00:16:54,840 –> 00:16:57,399
I know I’m joking, right, I know I’m laughing at this,

264
00:16:59,440 –> 00:17:04,559
But America, this is your future if you don’t get

265
00:17:04,559 –> 00:17:07,799
your heads out of your butts and start understanding that

266
00:17:07,799 –> 00:17:10,240
these people are in it for the long game, all right,

267
00:17:12,440 –> 00:17:15,799
Speaking of zombies, Speaking of neo socialist, neo communist zombies.

268
00:17:18,880 –> 00:17:23,400
The No King’s protests were on. Say now, a few

269
00:17:23,599 –> 00:17:26,640
media outlets tried hard to make it sound like these

270
00:17:26,680 –> 00:17:31,160
protests were all spontaneous, Okay, that everyone just all of

271
00:17:31,200 –> 00:17:36,000
a sudden, altlu just took to the streets and rage. Now. Reportedly,

272
00:17:36,039 –> 00:17:39,839
there were eight million protesters across the nation and some

273
00:17:40,000 –> 00:17:42,599
in England and some in England. Okay, a no King’s

274
00:17:42,599 –> 00:17:46,440
protest in England where they have a king, they literally

275
00:17:46,480 –> 00:17:55,160
have a king. Anyways, For as big as this was,

276
00:17:55,279 –> 00:17:59,279
or purported, you know, reported to be, it just doesn’t

277
00:17:59,440 –> 00:18:04,559
seem to be carrying their water anymore. More and more

278
00:18:04,599 –> 00:18:09,920
people are waking up to how this stuff is organized,

279
00:18:10,119 –> 00:18:15,599
to who this stuff is organized by. In Fox News, okay,

280
00:18:15,880 –> 00:18:18,039
it’s fact news. But I saw the same thing in

281
00:18:18,119 –> 00:18:20,319
about four or five others, So just can it with

282
00:18:20,359 –> 00:18:23,000
the Hallufluke News. I don’t really watch them or care

283
00:18:23,039 –> 00:18:25,160
for me either, but they had a pretty good article

284
00:18:25,200 –> 00:18:29,160
on this. This says a network of about five hundred

285
00:18:29,240 –> 00:18:33,200
groups with the estimated worth of three billion dollars in

286
00:18:33,279 –> 00:18:38,200
combined annual revenues is behind the coordinated nationwide No Kings

287
00:18:38,279 –> 00:18:42,559
protest Saturday, including communist groups who are using the day

288
00:18:42,599 –> 00:18:45,240
to call for a revolution, according to a Fox Digital

289
00:18:45,279 –> 00:18:49,000
News investigation. According to a copy of the permit for

290
00:18:49,079 –> 00:18:53,279
the flagship march in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Indivisible That’s the

291
00:18:53,359 –> 00:18:57,240
name of it, a national Well Healed democratic political advocacy

292
00:18:57,319 –> 00:19:02,640
or organization funded by billionaire George Soros, is the lead

293
00:19:02,839 –> 00:19:06,000
coordinator for the protest, but Fox News Digital has also

294
00:19:06,079 –> 00:19:10,079
identified key participants by a network of radical socialists and

295
00:19:10,079 –> 00:19:15,039
communist organizations funded by Neville Roy Singham, an American tech

296
00:19:15,079 –> 00:19:19,480
tycoon and avowed communists living in China. Over nearly a decade,

297
00:19:19,480 –> 00:19:24,759
Seeingham has financed installation of activist institutions that promote revolutionary

298
00:19:24,799 –> 00:19:29,960
socialists politics and frequently collaborate in protest campaigns, including the

299
00:19:30,000 –> 00:19:32,720
People’s Form in New York, the Party for Socialism, and

300
00:19:32,759 –> 00:19:38,680
Liberal Liberation Liberation for one, Anyways, the Answer, Answer Capital,

301
00:19:38,720 –> 00:19:44,119
a NSWR ooh, the Answer Coalition, and of course Code Pink,

302
00:19:44,440 –> 00:19:47,160
who just came back from enjoying the Verity trip to

303
00:19:47,200 –> 00:19:50,640
Europe where they danced and partied and had a wonderful

304
00:19:50,759 –> 00:19:54,319
concert while the rest of the island remained completely dark

305
00:19:54,559 –> 00:19:57,839
and people died. But we won’t talk about that anyways.

306
00:19:57,920 –> 00:20:00,880
Who’s founder Jody Evans is married, saying them, Oh, what

307
00:20:00,960 –> 00:20:05,160
a quinky dink. So she’s okay, So she’s married to

308
00:20:05,200 –> 00:20:09,079
a billionaire, Okay. These groups work closely with the Freedom

309
00:20:09,240 –> 00:20:13,799
Road socialist organization. They’re all sending members to the protest,

310
00:20:13,839 –> 00:20:15,640
and one group said they plan to bring a message

311
00:20:15,680 –> 00:20:21,920
of revolution to the protest revolution. Ooh. Anyways, it goes

312
00:20:21,920 –> 00:20:24,000
on and on and on, YadA YadA, YadA, ad nauseum.

313
00:20:24,039 –> 00:20:29,440
There’s five hundred groups, three billion dollars in annual revenues

314
00:20:29,480 –> 00:20:34,720
behind the five hundred groups. How many of these groups

315
00:20:36,759 –> 00:20:42,839
are enjoying that sweet USAID money from your tax dollars

316
00:20:42,920 –> 00:20:45,720
or at least were or at least got as big

317
00:20:45,759 –> 00:20:49,920
as they were through your paycheck. It sounds like an

318
00:20:49,920 –> 00:20:52,759
indirect insurrection to me, sounds like something that we ought

319
00:20:52,759 –> 00:20:55,039
to be going. You know, Okay, you have the right

320
00:20:55,039 –> 00:20:57,160
to protest, and we’ll get that to the minute. I

321
00:20:57,839 –> 00:21:01,079
it was funny. What I put on X today is

322
00:21:01,119 –> 00:21:06,880
just absolutely hysterical. But anyways, they openly want to overthrow

323
00:21:07,039 –> 00:21:12,240
a democratically elected president just because their orverlords have directed

324
00:21:12,240 –> 00:21:16,359
them to do so. These are the Saved Democracy people.

325
00:21:16,640 –> 00:21:22,160
The Saved Democracy are anti democracy when it’s not their person.

326
00:21:22,920 –> 00:21:26,519
These are all neo socialists and neo communist organizations who

327
00:21:26,559 –> 00:21:30,920
have likely been siphoning your paycheck through Usaid, which is

328
00:21:30,960 –> 00:21:35,759
why they hate what DOGE did so very much. Now,

329
00:21:35,799 –> 00:21:38,920
for as much money as they’re spending on these little tantrums,

330
00:21:39,559 –> 00:21:41,759
is it making a difference, or are people just getting

331
00:21:41,759 –> 00:21:44,640
fatigued from seeing these little pansies freaking out every time

332
00:21:44,680 –> 00:21:47,720
there’s a Republican president. And if you think this ends

333
00:21:47,720 –> 00:21:51,599
with Trump is gone, you’re sadly mistaken. My friends, Okay,

334
00:21:52,039 –> 00:21:55,279
I have seen it personally through Ronald Reagan, through the

335
00:21:55,319 –> 00:21:58,240
Bush wanted administration, through the Bush two administration. Remember that,

336
00:21:58,319 –> 00:22:01,359
Oh they were Hitler’s. Every one of the Reagan, Bush

337
00:22:01,400 –> 00:22:03,960
one and Bush two. We’re all practically Hitler. Trump is

338
00:22:04,039 –> 00:22:10,079
practically Hitler. We had to watch these groups. But the

339
00:22:10,160 –> 00:22:13,039
difference is they didn’t have the funding or the voice

340
00:22:13,039 –> 00:22:16,079
back then. They were kind of whiny. Well they do now,

341
00:22:16,119 –> 00:22:19,759
even though they still are whiny, and they will full

342
00:22:19,920 –> 00:22:24,839
on attack anything anything. To the writer of Schaig Guevera,

343
00:22:24,960 –> 00:22:28,480
going forward, I don’t care who it is. If there

344
00:22:28,559 –> 00:22:31,759
is a Republican anything, these people are a going to

345
00:22:31,799 –> 00:22:35,039
call it practically Hitler. B say they’re fastest and c

346
00:22:36,000 –> 00:22:40,799
throw public tantrums from one into the other of the

347
00:22:40,799 –> 00:22:45,160
country as much as they can to try to convince

348
00:22:45,200 –> 00:22:48,480
people that, oh my gosh, we’re living in this horrible time.

349
00:22:53,200 –> 00:22:59,440
It’s odd and unfortunately it works on way too many people. Unfortunately,

350
00:23:00,519 –> 00:23:07,359
the people who are teaching your grandchildren, your children, in

351
00:23:07,400 –> 00:23:13,519
some cases your great grandchildren are funded or at least

352
00:23:13,559 –> 00:23:19,759
influenced by these neo socialists and neo communists. That should

353
00:23:19,759 –> 00:23:25,119
scare the crap out of you. It really could, because,

354
00:23:26,240 –> 00:23:28,319
as we pointed out at the beginning of the show,

355
00:23:29,559 –> 00:23:31,880
there are way too many people who believe, they thoroughly

356
00:23:31,920 –> 00:23:37,559
believe they’re doing the greater good. Are not beyond brainwashing

357
00:23:37,640 –> 00:23:44,799
your children to accept what they’re selling. They’ve proven it

358
00:23:44,880 –> 00:23:50,000
time after time after time, and they’re not going to

359
00:23:50,039 –> 00:23:52,519
back down. That’s just the way it’s going to be.

360
00:23:52,759 –> 00:23:59,079
It’s what we have to live with now. So what

361
00:23:59,079 –> 00:24:02,559
do we do, How do we take care of this

362
00:24:02,599 –> 00:24:04,880
going forward? Well, we got the Japanese on our side now,

363
00:24:04,920 –> 00:24:09,920
I guess they see it. Makes me wonder how many

364
00:24:09,960 –> 00:24:12,319
other countries see it. I’m not the governments, but the people.

365
00:24:14,319 –> 00:24:18,599
How many other people actually in different worlds see what’s

366
00:24:18,640 –> 00:24:23,640
going on here, living in socialist hellholes, communist hellholes, see

367
00:24:23,640 –> 00:24:26,920
what’s going on here, smacking their forehead, going oh my god,

368
00:24:26,960 –> 00:24:30,039
they’re going right down the same path we went. We

369
00:24:30,200 –> 00:24:32,319
have told them time and time to again to fight it,

370
00:24:32,400 –> 00:24:38,599
and they’re not. And when I look at what we

371
00:24:38,799 –> 00:24:49,720
have in Washington, d C. Supposedly protecting our ideologies. It

372
00:24:50,200 –> 00:24:56,000
gives me a stomach ache. All we ask for this

373
00:24:56,119 –> 00:25:04,480
past few weeks is to make sure that real American citizens,

374
00:25:05,039 –> 00:25:09,720
legal American citizens, people who are eligible to vote, prove

375
00:25:09,880 –> 00:25:16,480
that they’re eligible to vote. Republicans run the Senate, the House,

376
00:25:17,000 –> 00:25:21,960
the presidency, and they still can’t get it done. All

377
00:25:21,960 –> 00:25:26,079
we hear is a bunch of excuses. And I am

378
00:25:26,160 –> 00:25:33,559
tired of those excuses. When I hear excuses come out

379
00:25:33,599 –> 00:25:39,640
of the Republican Party, who control control the whole Washington

380
00:25:39,720 –> 00:25:44,440
d C. Right now, When I hear their excuses, all

381
00:25:44,480 –> 00:25:47,799
I hear is we’re on the Democrat side. We just

382
00:25:47,920 –> 00:25:52,839
don’t want you to realize it yet. It really is

383
00:25:52,880 –> 00:25:58,240
time to start really purging the establishment right out of

384
00:25:58,279 –> 00:26:01,960
Washington d C. Rush Limbaugh was right. We need to

385
00:26:02,160 –> 00:26:06,039
primary each and every one of the people who are

386
00:26:06,039 –> 00:26:11,799
out there making these lame excuses. Lame excuses. You want

387
00:26:11,799 –> 00:26:13,279
to know why you get a Donald Trump? You wi

388
00:26:13,920 –> 00:26:16,160
all your people out there who are never Trump or

389
00:26:16,799 –> 00:26:19,559
I really don’t like Trump, but you’re like, oh boy,

390
00:26:19,640 –> 00:26:21,279
you roll your eyes and say, okay, here we go.

391
00:26:22,279 –> 00:26:24,279
Are people like me who just like, you know, I

392
00:26:24,319 –> 00:26:26,480
look at the whole Washington DC mess and I just

393
00:26:26,519 –> 00:26:28,799
shrugged my shoulders anymore because they’re like, whatever, what am

394
00:26:28,839 –> 00:26:31,480
I gonna do? YO? Want to know how you get

395
00:26:31,480 –> 00:26:37,680
a Donald Trump? Because people are sick and tired of

396
00:26:37,799 –> 00:26:41,359
voting for a bunch of half wits backed by a

397
00:26:41,359 –> 00:26:43,440
lot of money, who go to Washington, d C. With

398
00:26:43,480 –> 00:26:46,039
a whole bunch of promises though we’re going to change things,

399
00:26:46,160 –> 00:26:52,880
We’re gonna fight, and they don’t do anything nothing. They

400
00:26:52,960 –> 00:26:55,640
just make a bunch of excuses, and then when they

401
00:26:55,680 –> 00:26:58,079
lose power, they go right back out there go if

402
00:26:58,079 –> 00:27:01,200
you put us in power, we’re gonna change things. No,

403
00:27:01,599 –> 00:27:05,640
you’re not. You’re not gonna change anything because you’re a

404
00:27:05,720 –> 00:27:09,160
bunch of slackers and I think your Democrat lights. If

405
00:27:09,160 –> 00:27:12,079
you really want to know the truth, this is how

406
00:27:12,119 –> 00:27:14,599
you get a Donald Trump. Because he stood up there

407
00:27:14,640 –> 00:27:17,920
and said I’m gonna do X, Y and Z. He

408
00:27:18,000 –> 00:27:20,599
went to Washington, D C. And he started doing X,

409
00:27:20,759 –> 00:27:24,720
Y and Z. That’s how I went from when he

410
00:27:24,799 –> 00:27:28,440
first ran going oh my god, please don’t win, and

411
00:27:28,519 –> 00:27:30,960
when here like, oh my god, what are we gonna do?

412
00:27:31,599 –> 00:27:35,759
And within six months things started turning around. Jobs started

413
00:27:35,759 –> 00:27:38,359
coming back to America, the economy started getting better. I went,

414
00:27:39,359 –> 00:27:41,359
you mean, he’s actually gonna do what he said he

415
00:27:41,400 –> 00:27:46,119
was gonna do. That’s what these people hate the most

416
00:27:46,160 –> 00:27:50,200
about him. It’s because he’s not in cohoots with either side.

417
00:27:50,839 –> 00:27:52,839
He went to Washington, d C. To actually do what

418
00:27:52,880 –> 00:27:56,000
he wanted to do. Imagine if we had an entire

419
00:27:56,200 –> 00:27:59,759
Republican Senate, Republican House that went to Washington, d C.

420
00:27:59,880 –> 00:28:02,039
To do what we wanted them to do. Imagine what

421
00:28:02,039 –> 00:28:03,720
we would be doing right now. I’ll tell you what

422
00:28:03,720 –> 00:28:05,680
we’d be doing. We’d be throwing these neo socialists and

423
00:28:05,680 –> 00:28:09,200
neo communists into communists and socialist countries and Saint go

424
00:28:09,400 –> 00:28:19,079
live there. There’s your paradise, exactly, Jeff. You play the

425
00:28:19,119 –> 00:28:23,119
game to win, and Republican senators are, oh, thank you

426
00:28:23,160 –> 00:28:25,799
for inviting us to the game. We’re just gonna sit

427
00:28:25,880 –> 00:28:31,000
here and make excuses. And I really do hope, I

428
00:28:31,079 –> 00:28:34,400
really do hope that somebody in Washington, d C. Somewhere

429
00:28:34,440 –> 00:28:37,319
gets a hold of this, and I hope it offends you.

430
00:28:37,400 –> 00:28:40,279
I hope it hurts your feelings. I hope you lay

431
00:28:40,319 –> 00:28:42,720
there at night and cry over this, because This is

432
00:28:42,759 –> 00:28:49,319
how we all feel. We detest democrats’ ideologies, and we

433
00:28:49,359 –> 00:28:54,759
detest you not fighting for us who detest democrat ideologies.

434
00:28:56,000 –> 00:29:02,319
Can I make it any planer? Yeah, I’ve been black piled,

435
00:29:02,720 –> 00:29:06,519

terrified of them. He’s a city boy. He’s a grand

495
00:32:39,680 –> 00:32:42,079
rapids dog. He’s got a tiny little backyard that he

496
00:32:42,200 –> 00:32:45,720
dwells in, but out here he runs free. He runs.

497
00:32:45,720 –> 00:32:48,359
He’s got three and a half acres to go nuts

498
00:32:48,519 –> 00:32:52,079
and he loves that. So do I, So do I. Rocket.

499
00:32:53,759 –> 00:32:58,559
Here’s an update for you. I’ve been talking about the

500
00:32:58,559 –> 00:33:04,079
the solar hellscape there putting around my area, okay, And

501
00:33:04,440 –> 00:33:07,599
it’s kind of it’s a half mile down the road,

502
00:33:07,680 –> 00:33:10,319
all right, and it kind of surrounds me like a

503
00:33:10,319 –> 00:33:14,079
half mile radius. And as you know, I go back

504
00:33:14,119 –> 00:33:17,079
and forth. I’m trying to see the silver lioning in

505
00:33:17,079 –> 00:33:20,960
the dark clouds. Okay, I’m I’m not a big fan.

506
00:33:21,559 –> 00:33:23,240
I know solar. I’m not going to say air and

507
00:33:23,279 –> 00:33:25,880
preach to you, blah blah blah. Check my back episode

508
00:33:25,920 –> 00:33:28,000
you’ll know my feeling on solar. I don’t hate it.

509
00:33:28,039 –> 00:33:33,759
I have solar panels, also understand solar. But I’ve found

510
00:33:33,799 –> 00:33:39,359
another positive, another positive about being surrounded by solar farms,

511
00:33:40,440 –> 00:33:42,920
and that is that if there’s solar farms all around me,

512
00:33:43,039 –> 00:33:46,359
there’s not going to be houses being built and people

513
00:33:46,759 –> 00:33:51,319
encroaching in my area. That could be a bonus that

514
00:33:51,359 –> 00:33:54,039
could be a good thing, because I mean, this whole

515
00:33:54,079 –> 00:33:59,119
area is really starting to build up. But if they

516
00:33:59,160 –> 00:34:01,960
have all of this crap around, maybe they’ll think twice

517
00:34:02,000 –> 00:34:03,920
and just go somewhere else. They don’t, you know, rich people,

518
00:34:03,920 –> 00:34:06,440
the wealthy people building these big billion dollar houses, they

519
00:34:06,480 –> 00:34:09,719
don’t want to see solar crap. They’ll leave it alone.

520
00:34:11,480 –> 00:34:13,400
So it’s a it’s a bonus. Welcome back at Sunday

521
00:34:13,480 –> 00:34:16,199
Night with Alan Ray. I am your humble host, Alan Ray.

522
00:34:17,239 –> 00:34:20,159
Here back at it. I know I took a little

523
00:34:20,159 –> 00:34:22,800
bit of a break. I needed it. I really didn’t

524
00:34:22,800 –> 00:34:25,519
need it. But I think I’m revived. I think I’m

525
00:34:25,559 –> 00:34:28,079
ready to rock and roll now. I feel good. It’s

526
00:34:28,559 –> 00:34:33,400
getting these shows together is a little bit easier. Now.

527
00:34:33,400 –> 00:34:36,519
We’re gonna put our tinfoil hats on. Children, Come with

528
00:34:36,559 –> 00:34:41,960
me down this little rabbit hole. AI is making our

529
00:34:42,239 –> 00:34:54,760
surveillance state a little more surveillance here refined. What is this?

530
00:34:54,760 –> 00:34:58,800
This is a live science dot com. AI systems are

531
00:34:58,880 –> 00:35:02,519
enabling mass survey in the US, and there is no

532
00:35:02,800 –> 00:35:06,679
national law that meaningfully limits the use of the data

533
00:35:06,760 –> 00:35:10,639
that they are collecting. Since for decades, cars dictated urban

534
00:35:10,679 –> 00:35:12,920
planning in the United States, few could have predicted that

535
00:35:12,960 –> 00:35:15,840
they would one day also double as nodes for surveillance.

536
00:35:16,400 –> 00:35:19,320
In thousands of towns and cities across the US, automatic

537
00:35:19,440 –> 00:35:22,840
license plate readers have been installed at major intersections, bridges,

538
00:35:22,840 –> 00:35:29,840
and highway off ramps. These cameras camera based systems capture

539
00:35:29,840 –> 00:35:32,880
the license plate data of passing vehicles, along with images

540
00:35:32,880 –> 00:35:36,599
of the vehicles and timestamps. More recently, these systems are

541
00:35:36,679 –> 00:35:40,679
using artificial intelligence to create a vast searchable database that

542
00:35:40,719 –> 00:35:46,519
can be integrated with other law enforcement data repositories. As

543
00:35:46,559 –> 00:35:50,199
a scholar of technology policy and data governance, the author

544
00:35:50,239 –> 00:35:53,320
there says he sees the expansion of automatic license plate

545
00:35:53,360 –> 00:35:57,119
readers as a source of deep concern. It’s happening as

546
00:35:57,159 –> 00:36:03,280
government authorities are seeking ways to target immigrant and transgender communities. Yeah,

547
00:36:03,320 –> 00:36:07,119
that’s right. A lefty wrote this, But I kind of

548
00:36:07,159 –> 00:36:10,000
agree with them because it’s going to be used on

549
00:36:10,159 –> 00:36:14,239
everybody illegal immigrants, not immigrants, sir, And who cares about

550
00:36:14,239 –> 00:36:18,360
transgender communities? They would really love for us to We

551
00:36:18,480 –> 00:36:20,760
just don’t. We wanted to leave children alone, and we

552
00:36:20,840 –> 00:36:22,639
want them not to be in our faces. That’s what

553
00:36:22,639 –> 00:36:24,559
we really want with the trans in our community. He

554
00:36:24,559 –> 00:36:29,920
needs to understand that anyways, they are already using AI

555
00:36:30,000 –> 00:36:33,320
to monitor protests and are considering deploying AI systems for

556
00:36:33,400 –> 00:36:37,840
mass surveillance. Using cameras to track license plates dates back

557
00:36:37,880 –> 00:36:40,360
to the nineteen seventies, when the UK was embroiled in

558
00:36:40,400 –> 00:36:43,719
a long simmering conflict with the Irish Republican Army. The

559
00:36:43,840 –> 00:36:46,480
Met London’s police force developed a system that used close

560
00:36:46,519 –> 00:36:49,440
circuit television cameras to monitor and record the license plates

561
00:36:49,440 –> 00:36:53,320
of vehicles entering and exiting major roads. The system and

562
00:36:53,360 –> 00:36:56,239
its successors were seen as useful crime fighting tools. Over

563
00:36:56,280 –> 00:36:58,559
the next two decades, they expanded to other cities in

564
00:36:58,599 –> 00:37:01,639
the UK and around the world. In nineteen ninety eight,

565
00:37:01,719 –> 00:37:05,400
US Customs and Border Protection implemented this technology. By the

566
00:37:05,440 –> 00:37:08,039
twenty first century, it had started appearing in cities across

567
00:37:08,079 –> 00:37:11,400
the US. There are different ways for a jurisdiction to

568
00:37:11,480 –> 00:37:15,039
implement these systems, but local government usually signs contracts with

569
00:37:15,199 –> 00:37:18,880
private companies. There’s the sticking point that provide the hardware

570
00:37:18,880 –> 00:37:22,679
and service. These companies often entice authorities with free trials

571
00:37:22,719 –> 00:37:25,360
of surveillance equipment and promise of free access to their

572
00:37:25,440 –> 00:37:30,559
data in ways that bypass local oversight laws up Steven’s

573
00:37:30,599 –> 00:37:36,320
in the check Good Evening, Mister Stephen. Recently, though, AI

574
00:37:36,360 –> 00:37:42,079
has been incorporated into these cameras, and that significantly significantly

575
00:37:42,360 –> 00:37:46,800
increases their reach. The vehicle information that’s capture is typically

576
00:37:46,840 –> 00:37:49,920
stored in the cloud, creating a massive web of data repositories.

577
00:37:51,000 –> 00:37:54,039
If a camera collects information from a suspects car truck,

578
00:37:54,159 –> 00:37:57,440
say one also listed in the National Crime Information the Center,

579
00:37:57,840 –> 00:38:00,440
AI can flag it and send an instant alert to

580
00:38:00,480 –> 00:38:03,679
local law enforcement. In fact, that’s a selling point of

581
00:38:03,760 –> 00:38:07,599
Flock Safety, one of the biggest providers of automatic license

582
00:38:07,599 –> 00:38:11,199
plate readers. The company uses infrared cameras to capture images

583
00:38:11,199 –> 00:38:15,400
of vehicle AI then analyzes the data to identify subjects

584
00:38:15,440 –> 00:38:19,800
and quickly alert local authorities. On the surface, automatic license

585
00:38:19,840 –> 00:38:22,199
plate readers seem like a logical way to fight crime.

586
00:38:22,960 –> 00:38:26,000
More information about the whereabouts of suspects can potentially help

587
00:38:26,079 –> 00:38:28,960
law enforcement, and why worry about cameras if you’re following

588
00:38:29,000 –> 00:38:33,599
the law right right right? But there are few peri

589
00:38:33,719 –> 00:38:36,280
viewed studies on the effectiveness. Those that exist find little

590
00:38:36,280 –> 00:38:38,599
evidence that they’ve led to reduction and violent crime rates,

591
00:38:38,679 –> 00:38:41,639
though they seem to be helpful in solving some crimes

592
00:38:41,639 –> 00:38:47,239
like car thefts. Furthermore, installation and maintenance as costly. It

593
00:38:47,360 –> 00:38:50,079
goes on to give all that crap. But here’s the

594
00:38:50,119 –> 00:38:54,400
big problem. It’s an erosion of civil liberties. Now, this

595
00:38:54,480 –> 00:38:58,400
guy you know claims who they’re going after transgenders and immigrants. Well,

596
00:38:58,559 –> 00:39:01,199
they’re probably going after illegal immigrants. Somebody is going to

597
00:39:01,239 –> 00:39:05,199
use it that way. But here’s one of them rare

598
00:39:05,239 –> 00:39:07,159
instances where the left and the right can actually hook

599
00:39:07,239 –> 00:39:14,320
up and actually do some good together. This is another

600
00:39:14,360 –> 00:39:17,880
one of those very powerful tools that can and will

601
00:39:18,119 –> 00:39:23,400
be used against us in the United States. I guarantee it.

602
00:39:23,400 –> 00:39:29,960
It probably already is. Can you say Obama using the

603
00:39:30,079 –> 00:39:38,199
IRS to go after conservative groups? Just think how lean

604
00:39:38,360 –> 00:39:42,280
and effishing it would be if the next neo communists

605
00:39:43,119 –> 00:39:45,920
goes after conservatives, and they’ve already promised they’re coming after

606
00:39:45,960 –> 00:39:50,880
conservatives using cameras with AI technology up that guy, you go, oh, look,

607
00:39:51,000 –> 00:39:55,440
we linked it to the election database. So every one

608
00:39:55,480 –> 00:39:57,440
of these people that are driving down the road that

609
00:39:57,760 –> 00:40:00,880
voted for the person we don’t like, well, we’re gonna

610
00:40:00,880 –> 00:40:03,920
have something to do with them. We’re going to turn

611
00:40:03,920 –> 00:40:05,760
their credit cards off, We’re gonna make sure they don’t

612
00:40:05,760 –> 00:40:09,320
get to go anywhere. We know where this is going,

613
00:40:14,519 –> 00:40:19,320
so we’re down with this. We’re down with limiting in facts,

614
00:40:19,760 –> 00:40:23,400
making this almost illegal to do because we know where

615
00:40:23,400 –> 00:40:27,199
it leads. It isn’t about well, if you’re following the law,

616
00:40:27,239 –> 00:40:29,960
you have nothing to worry about. No, it’s what politicians

617
00:40:30,039 –> 00:40:32,360
have already done to us and what they’re going to

618
00:40:32,360 –> 00:40:37,400
do to us again. Now it comes down to this.

619
00:40:37,679 –> 00:40:39,679
If you don’t want to be watched, if you don’t

620
00:40:39,679 –> 00:40:41,760
want to be listened to, if you don’t want to

621
00:40:41,800 –> 00:40:45,639
be tracked, like livestock here in twenty twenty six, you

622
00:40:45,719 –> 00:40:47,719
have a couple of action options. You can leave the

623
00:40:47,719 –> 00:40:50,599
technology at home and live in a remote cave without

624
00:40:50,639 –> 00:40:53,239
any technology at all, and they’ll still probably find you.

625
00:40:55,000 –> 00:41:00,400
Or you need to learn to mess with this technology.

626
00:41:01,320 –> 00:41:04,480
Leave it to me here on Sunday night with Alan

627
00:41:04,519 –> 00:41:08,119
Ray to find this. Remember Popular Mechanics. Your dad had

628
00:41:08,159 –> 00:41:10,639
back orders of Popular Mechanics sitting around if he was

629
00:41:10,719 –> 00:41:15,000
like my dad, Oh, grew up reading them, loved, loved

630
00:41:15,119 –> 00:41:19,039
Popular Mechanics books. Popular Mechanics has eight genius ways to

631
00:41:19,079 –> 00:41:23,800
trick surveillance systems. I love it. Number one, the artificial

632
00:41:23,840 –> 00:41:27,119
intelligence startup company Nearon, which is based in San Diego,

633
00:41:27,119 –> 00:41:31,159
California’s discovered a rather away to trick airport facial recognitions

634
00:41:31,239 –> 00:41:40,880
technology use a paper mask. Quick facial scans take way

635
00:41:40,960 –> 00:41:44,400
less time than going through a traditional security checkpoint. However,

636
00:41:45,360 –> 00:41:48,199
Neuron had a sneaking suspicion that the technology wasn’t as

637
00:41:48,280 –> 00:41:52,920
robust as it should be. Neuron researchers down paper masks

638
00:41:52,960 –> 00:41:54,920
to put their hypothesis to the test. They were able

639
00:41:54,960 –> 00:41:58,320
to pool the systems across three different continents, including payment

640
00:41:58,360 –> 00:42:01,119
tables run by Chinese companies ali I Pay and we Chat,

641
00:42:01,280 –> 00:42:04,119
a facial recognition system at border crossing points in China,

642
00:42:04,159 –> 00:42:12,320
and other systems Amsterdam’s Shipol Airport number two. Tricking license

643
00:42:12,320 –> 00:42:17,199
plate leaders readers, hackers designed a skirt which covered in

644
00:42:17,360 –> 00:42:20,440
license plates with part of the fourth Amendment that you know,

645
00:42:20,480 –> 00:42:22,800
that’s the one that deals with unreasonable searches and seizures

646
00:42:23,440 –> 00:42:27,880
to trip up surveillance systems. You can snag similarly designed hoodies,

647
00:42:27,920 –> 00:42:31,480
t shirts and tanks at Adversarial Fashion online store. The

648
00:42:31,599 –> 00:42:33,719
patterns on the goods in this shop are designed to

649
00:42:33,719 –> 00:42:37,320
trigger automated license plate readers injecting junk data into their

650
00:42:37,360 –> 00:42:40,320
system used by the state and its contractors to monitor

651
00:42:40,360 –> 00:42:43,679
and tract civilians in their locations, writes Cat Rose, founder

652
00:42:43,679 –> 00:42:47,400
of Adversarial Fashion, that in turn makes those plate leaders

653
00:42:47,519 –> 00:42:51,880
less effective. Now, if you go down the how to

654
00:42:52,119 –> 00:42:59,519
fool AI, how to full surveillance state, there’s a fairly

655
00:42:59,559 –> 00:43:02,400
hot check on the YouTube’s that has a really cool channel,

656
00:43:03,840 –> 00:43:08,199
and she talks about inserting junk information into your own

657
00:43:08,320 –> 00:43:12,000
personal data that’s being collected against you and send It

658
00:43:12,039 –> 00:43:14,079
doesn’t take much and it sends this data off on

659
00:43:14,159 –> 00:43:18,280
a fool’s Errand so there’s actually a company out there

660
00:43:18,320 –> 00:43:23,400
that makes license plate readers and clothes that trick these things,

661
00:43:23,440 –> 00:43:27,679
put junk data into it. Three. Oh, here’s one. Here’s

662
00:43:27,760 –> 00:43:31,760
one that you’ll all be wearing some three anti surveillance

663
00:43:31,880 –> 00:43:37,039
he jaebs. Since two thousand and nine, artists Adam Harvey

664
00:43:37,079 –> 00:43:39,559
has been working on ways to create counter surveillance passion,

665
00:43:39,559 –> 00:43:43,440
which he calls stealthware. One of his concepts now sold

666
00:43:43,480 –> 00:43:45,760
out as a scarf that you can wear like a

667
00:43:45,760 –> 00:43:50,360
hejab to disguise yourself from overhead drones. Harvey makes his

668
00:43:50,400 –> 00:43:53,599
garments with sober plated fabrics that can reflect thermal radiation.

669
00:43:54,119 –> 00:43:56,440
He believes that by twenty fifty the countries will be

670
00:43:56,440 –> 00:43:58,920
able to perform full surveillance on their population just er

671
00:43:59,000 –> 00:44:04,840
point oh one percent of their GDP Number four Fashion camouflage.

672
00:44:06,800 –> 00:44:09,800
Harvey’s also brains behind cb Dazzle, a project that looks

673
00:44:09,800 –> 00:44:11,960
out how fashion can be used as forms of camouflage

674
00:44:11,960 –> 00:44:17,599
against facial recognition tech. CEB Dazzle puts an advant guard

675
00:44:17,719 –> 00:44:20,960
spin on things with quirky, theatrical hairstyles, makeup that breaks

676
00:44:21,000 –> 00:44:24,360
up the continuity of a face. That is, it messes

677
00:44:24,400 –> 00:44:28,079
with the patterns of the face and sometimes it you know,

678
00:44:29,719 –> 00:44:32,320
it messes with there’s there’s certain parts of your face

679
00:44:32,360 –> 00:44:36,719
that it’ll mess with that’ll throw facial recognition off. It says,

680
00:44:36,760 –> 00:44:39,599
try it create a symmetry, you know, use your use makeup,

681
00:44:39,719 –> 00:44:43,760
or use something on your face, your hairstyle. To do this,

682
00:44:45,440 –> 00:44:48,079
facial recognition algorithms are programmed to look for a symmetry

683
00:44:48,119 –> 00:44:50,360
between the left and right side of the face. Decrease

684
00:44:50,400 –> 00:44:53,280
your chances of detection by creating asymmetry like covering your

685
00:44:53,320 –> 00:44:54,960
left eye with a feather or a piece of style

686
00:44:55,079 –> 00:44:58,440
hair too. Use tonal imverse algorithms can look for the

687
00:44:58,440 –> 00:45:01,000
grades of skin and tone texture, which helps to locate

688
00:45:01,039 –> 00:45:04,239
the actual back of facial recognition. However, it relies on

689
00:45:04,280 –> 00:45:07,280
an assumption of what facial features look like, making it

690
00:45:07,360 –> 00:45:09,760
somewhat easy to trick the system. Just use a hair

691
00:45:09,800 –> 00:45:13,039
and makeup colors that contrast with your skin tone. Three.

692
00:45:13,119 –> 00:45:16,440
Cover the nose or the bridge of your nose. Algorithms

693
00:45:16,679 –> 00:45:19,840
strongly rely on the nose bridge as key facial markers.

694
00:45:20,519 –> 00:45:23,280
Use accessories like gems and face paint, or create hairstyles

695
00:45:23,320 –> 00:45:25,320
to conceal the area just above your nose in between

696
00:45:25,360 –> 00:45:31,000
your eyes. Okay, Number five, confuse AI with photos. If

697
00:45:31,039 –> 00:45:33,039
you really wanted to, you could walk around the photo

698
00:45:33,079 –> 00:45:34,800
taped to the front of your shirt to avoid facial

699
00:45:34,840 –> 00:45:38,119
recognisance recognition systems from recognized you as a person as

700
00:45:38,159 –> 00:45:41,840
compared to say a chair. That’s based on research by

701
00:45:41,840 –> 00:45:46,800
Simon Thighs and Tune Guadamy of the University of ku

702
00:45:46,880 –> 00:45:50,920
Luvin in Belgium. The researchers wanted to see if they

703
00:45:50,920 –> 00:45:54,119
could fuel a fool a human recognizing tool called YOLO,

704
00:45:54,639 –> 00:45:57,440
so they created or edited various images, testing them against

705
00:45:57,440 –> 00:45:59,920
the artificial intelligence system until they found one that worked.

706
00:46:00,559 –> 00:46:04,280
The winning image a photo of people holding colorful umbrellas.

707
00:46:04,760 –> 00:46:07,280
The team rotated it and added some noise to fool

708
00:46:07,320 –> 00:46:11,000
the system. There’s a video of of one of them

709
00:46:11,000 –> 00:46:12,960
holding the people to the umbrella and he hands it

710
00:46:12,960 –> 00:46:17,360
to the other person and the AI program stops recognizing

711
00:46:17,360 –> 00:46:19,840
the other person and recognizes the chair instead. It’s pretty cool.

712
00:46:20,880 –> 00:46:26,000
Number six, use someone else’s face. You are Emmy Surveillance

713
00:46:26,000 –> 00:46:29,360
as a company dedicated to shielding people from facial recognition technology.

714
00:46:29,400 –> 00:46:31,960
The idea get as many people as possible to wear

715
00:46:32,000 –> 00:46:35,400
photorealistic three D printed prosthetic faces resembling you Are Emmy

716
00:46:35,400 –> 00:46:39,840
founder Leo Savaggio. When users wear the prosthetic cameras equip

717
00:46:39,840 –> 00:46:43,360
a facial recognition software identity those people as Savaggio rather

718
00:46:43,400 –> 00:46:46,760
than their true identities. Now it’s like a flash mob

719
00:46:46,760 –> 00:46:54,039
and it screws everything up. Seven distracting computer algorithms. Harvey

720
00:46:54,079 –> 00:46:57,239
has one other significant anti surveillance project worth mentioning. It’s

721
00:46:57,239 –> 00:47:00,000
called Hyperface, and it’s like a hybrid between Rose’s life

722
00:47:00,039 –> 00:47:03,199
since pattern attire and Harvey’s own cebe Dazzle that relies

723
00:47:03,239 –> 00:47:06,559
on quirky makeup to fool system. This time, though, it’s

724
00:47:06,559 –> 00:47:10,679
all about seemingly abstract patterns printed on shirts which actually

725
00:47:10,719 –> 00:47:13,000
look like a facial to facial or a face to

726
00:47:13,039 –> 00:47:17,400
facial recognition and algorithms. Harvey is design a pattern on

727
00:47:17,400 –> 00:47:20,039
fabric that aims to reduce the confidence score of a

728
00:47:20,079 –> 00:47:23,960
facial detection and recognition by providing false faces that distract

729
00:47:24,000 –> 00:47:28,159
computer vision algorithms. The fabric creates a false face depending

730
00:47:28,440 –> 00:47:33,400
based on ideal algorithmic representative representations of a human face.

731
00:47:33,519 –> 00:47:38,320
That’s scary. Number eight T shirts that avoid people detectors

732
00:47:40,559 –> 00:47:43,960
new researchers put out in November twenty nineteen by Northeastern

733
00:47:44,039 –> 00:47:48,360
University in conjunction with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology IBM

734
00:47:48,440 –> 00:47:51,280
Watson Lab in Boston, proposes a new type of T

735
00:47:51,400 –> 00:47:54,079
shirt that allows people to mask themselves from people detect

736
00:47:54,079 –> 00:47:59,239
them surveillance detectors by wearing tops with adversarial printed images

737
00:47:59,280 –> 00:48:02,719
on them. As a person changes their form through movement,

738
00:48:03,079 –> 00:48:06,679
deforming the image, it masks them, foiling the surveillance system.

739
00:48:07,079 –> 00:48:09,519
The authors claim that the system can achieve up to

740
00:48:09,519 –> 00:48:12,559
seventy nine percent and sixty three percent success rates in

741
00:48:12,599 –> 00:48:18,840
the digital and physical worlds, respectively. So why do I

742
00:48:18,840 –> 00:48:21,480
bring all this stuff up? Because I get the feeling

743
00:48:22,480 –> 00:48:30,039
that we are already living in an era where underground surveillance,

744
00:48:30,280 –> 00:48:42,800
busting shirts, makeup prosthetics faces is going to be big business. Now,

745
00:48:42,840 –> 00:48:46,800
why would a law abiding citizen be interested in something

746
00:48:46,840 –> 00:48:48,800
like this? If I don’t break any laws, if I

747
00:48:48,800 –> 00:48:52,280
don’t do anything wrong, why would I be interested in,

748
00:48:52,559 –> 00:48:55,079
I don’t know, maybe buying a couple of them shirts

749
00:48:55,079 –> 00:49:00,480
to have just in case. Because, just like Soul many

750
00:49:00,599 –> 00:49:05,440
other nations have learned before us, it’s not the laws.

751
00:49:06,559 –> 00:49:10,199
It’s who’s in charge of enforcing the laws and why

752
00:49:10,280 –> 00:49:15,119
they enforce them that matters. It’s who changes the laws

753
00:49:15,320 –> 00:49:20,199
and who singles out certain people for oh, I don’t know, imprisonment,

754
00:49:20,639 –> 00:49:27,920
tournament camps, extermination. Now I’m not being paranoid, I’m being

755
00:49:28,119 –> 00:49:31,840
historically at it. We’ve seen it time after time. It

756
00:49:31,880 –> 00:49:35,239
goes on. It’s going on right now, thank you very much.

757
00:49:38,199 –> 00:49:41,360
You want to get ahead of the curve, start your

758
00:49:41,360 –> 00:49:44,800
own business while it’s legal, I guarantee you pretty soon

759
00:49:44,840 –> 00:49:47,199
none of these businesses will be legal. It’ll all be underground.

760
00:49:47,199 –> 00:49:50,280
But it’s there. God, It’s almost like we’re living in

761
00:49:50,360 –> 00:49:54,159
some kind of a cyberpunk book anymore, isn’t it? Guys,

762
00:49:54,159 –> 00:49:56,599
in chat. You know, do you believe that? It’s almost

763
00:49:56,639 –> 00:50:00,159
like we’re living in some kind of of a cyberpunk world.

764
00:50:00,199 –> 00:50:04,800
It’s coming, you can see it all right. Ten minutes

765
00:50:06,719 –> 00:50:11,239
final segment. Remember that one dude from the Ukraine. I

766
00:50:11,280 –> 00:50:15,559
think his name was Vladimir Zlensky. He was the guy

767
00:50:15,639 –> 00:50:17,800
that kept coming over here with his hands out, begging

768
00:50:17,840 –> 00:50:20,679
for giant chunks of our paychecks to fund his defense,

769
00:50:20,719 –> 00:50:23,239
while he partied like a rock star, while he bought

770
00:50:23,280 –> 00:50:26,559
more big mansions and stuff. Whatever happened to him? Where

771
00:50:26,559 –> 00:50:30,440
did he go? It seems like he just left, went

772
00:50:30,639 –> 00:50:36,159
right off the mab. We caught up with him. It

773
00:50:36,199 –> 00:50:39,079
appears he’s running around the Middle East like a little weasel,

774
00:50:39,159 –> 00:50:43,320
trying to drum up money for his war. According to

775
00:50:43,360 –> 00:50:47,679
the New York Slimes says, the Ukrainian president visited the

776
00:50:47,719 –> 00:50:50,320
Middle East, where he sought to shift his country from

777
00:50:50,360 –> 00:50:55,280
a recipient of military aid to a supplier. President Vladimir

778
00:50:55,280 –> 00:50:58,400
and Zelensky of Ukraine hailed his Middle East tour to

779
00:50:58,480 –> 00:51:02,559
promote an anti drone technic as a success, saying on

780
00:51:02,599 –> 00:51:07,440
Saturday that he had negotiated air defense agreements with Saudi Arabia, Qatar,

781
00:51:07,559 –> 00:51:11,559
and the United Arab Emirates. In the media Mid East conflict,

782
00:51:11,679 –> 00:51:14,400
Ukraine has sought to shift its image from a recipient

783
00:51:14,440 –> 00:51:18,239
of military aid to a supplier. It sees an opening

784
00:51:18,360 –> 00:51:22,280
to export its low cost innovative designs created during the

785
00:51:22,280 –> 00:51:25,719
war with Russia. To compensate for shortages of weapons and ammunition,

786
00:51:26,719 –> 00:51:30,559
Ukraine’s military often relies on conter technologies, such as virtual

787
00:51:30,559 –> 00:51:33,559
reality goggles for gamers and off the shelf drone components.

788
00:51:34,039 –> 00:51:38,239
The agreements under negotiation with the United Arab Emirates and

789
00:51:38,320 –> 00:51:42,239
finalized with Qatar extended for ten years, mister Zelensky told

790
00:51:42,280 –> 00:51:44,960
reporters on a conference call, and could be worth billions.

791
00:51:45,360 –> 00:51:47,679
He spoke from Katar, one of the Persian Gulf states

792
00:51:47,679 –> 00:51:52,360
that has been targeted by Iranian drones. Mister Zelensky said

793
00:51:52,360 –> 00:51:55,239
he had signed deals with Saudi Arabian Katar and expected

794
00:51:55,280 –> 00:52:00,000
to finalize an agreement with the United Arab Emirates. So basically,

795
00:52:00,159 –> 00:52:09,199
in a nutshell, Vladimir Zelenski is now a salesman. Maybe

796
00:52:09,199 –> 00:52:13,519
he should make an infommercial. He could sell Gensu drones.

797
00:52:14,519 –> 00:52:18,000
You know Katar, You’re the leaders of Katar are up

798
00:52:18,039 –> 00:52:22,320
at midnight and here comes old Vladimir Zelensky on the air.

799
00:52:23,039 –> 00:52:29,440
A sham wow, guy, buy this incredible drone for one

800
00:52:29,440 –> 00:52:33,440
point five million dollars. But wait, there’s more order now

801
00:52:33,480 –> 00:52:40,519
and get two drones for the price of one. It’s

802
00:52:40,599 –> 00:52:42,719
kind of sad and pathetic. It’s that’s a big change

803
00:52:42,719 –> 00:52:44,519
from the guy that came over here with his hands out.

804
00:52:46,840 –> 00:52:48,639
I don’t know, maybe if you had come over here

805
00:52:48,719 –> 00:52:51,679
offered us something for you know, the money we’re giving him,

806
00:52:52,000 –> 00:52:54,280
maybe we’d have been more receptive to him. Why do

807
00:52:54,360 –> 00:52:59,840
people think that they’re just allowed to come over here

808
00:52:59,840 –> 00:53:03,440
and to say, give me American paychecks. I want, I

809
00:53:03,480 –> 00:53:07,679
want big chunks of the fruits of American labor, and

810
00:53:07,719 –> 00:53:09,480
I’m not gonna give you a darn thing for it.

811
00:53:09,519 –> 00:53:13,360
I’m just gonna snort it up my nose, buy more mansions,

812
00:53:13,440 –> 00:53:17,440
and maybe give some I don’t know, used weapons to

813
00:53:17,440 –> 00:53:21,840
my soldiers as I send them out to be mowed down. Yep,

814
00:53:21,920 –> 00:53:24,679
it’s just another grift, that’s all it is. PJ. You

815
00:53:24,800 –> 00:53:27,639
nailed it. He’s over there promising them a whole bunch

816
00:53:27,679 –> 00:53:31,079
of stuff. He’s gonna get that, and those Arabs are

817
00:53:31,119 –> 00:53:40,360
not gonna get a darn thing. Well, now, Vladimir Zelenski

818
00:53:40,480 –> 00:53:46,559
is just a glorified sham wow guy, that’s all he is. Well, folks,

819
00:53:47,199 –> 00:53:49,800
I really appreciate you tuning in tonight. I’ve had a

820
00:53:49,920 –> 00:53:53,360
wonderful time. Yes, I did some old man ranting, but

821
00:53:53,440 –> 00:53:55,639
we had a little bit of fun, did we not. Yes,

822
00:53:55,679 –> 00:54:01,079
we did. I gave you something to think about. Keep

823
00:54:01,119 –> 00:54:03,719
them in the back of your mind. I mean, I

824
00:54:04,079 –> 00:54:07,639
know that. I know there’s not a lot you can

825
00:54:07,679 –> 00:54:12,920
do about the big giant machine that’s slowly sucking your

826
00:54:12,960 –> 00:54:17,159
freedoms and liberties away, But to be aware that it’s

827
00:54:17,199 –> 00:54:20,480
out there. If enough of us are aware, and if

828
00:54:20,599 –> 00:54:22,360
enough of us start pointing out what they’re doing, and

829
00:54:22,440 –> 00:54:25,360
enough of us start standing up against it, maybe we’ll

830
00:54:25,400 –> 00:54:28,159
make a difference someday. I don’t know, can’t guarantee you

831
00:54:28,599 –> 00:54:31,039
probably won’t be alive by the time it does. But

832
00:54:31,599 –> 00:54:36,440
at least I’m planting some seeds. One more thing before

833
00:54:36,440 –> 00:54:40,960
I go. I sure did upset a lot of people

834
00:54:41,199 –> 00:54:45,760
on Twitter today, and all I did this is all

835
00:54:45,840 –> 00:54:49,760
I did. I made a comment. I didn’t put any

836
00:54:50,039 –> 00:54:54,400
anything behind it, didn’t reply to anybody. All I did

837
00:54:54,480 –> 00:54:58,679
was put out there that you’re allowed to peacefully protest

838
00:54:59,119 –> 00:55:02,800
no really knock yourself out, protest missing socks and the driver,

839
00:55:02,920 –> 00:55:05,760
protest green ties. It’s your right. You have the right

840
00:55:05,800 –> 00:55:09,880
to proaches. In fact, I encourage people to protest number two.

841
00:55:10,840 –> 00:55:13,760
I am allowed to laugh at you, mock you, and

842
00:55:13,800 –> 00:55:16,840
make fun of your misguided stupidity. It’s my right. Ain’t

843
00:55:16,840 –> 00:55:20,400
America beautiful? We’ve got two different rights there, your right

844
00:55:20,480 –> 00:55:24,679
to protest peacefully protest, I should say my right to

845
00:55:24,719 –> 00:55:29,559
make fun of you for peacefully protesting. And wow, did

846
00:55:29,599 –> 00:55:34,920
it send a lot of the left way over the edge.

847
00:55:35,719 –> 00:55:38,480
This thing’s got over three thousand likes so far, about

848
00:55:38,480 –> 00:55:41,320
two hundred and eighty five reposts, and there is just

849
00:55:41,599 –> 00:55:45,320
a lot of evil people. Oh they’re calling me a clown.

850
00:55:45,639 –> 00:55:48,360
And I didn’t even put this into context. I could

851
00:55:48,400 –> 00:55:50,960
have been talking about anything. I could have been talking

852
00:55:50,960 –> 00:55:53,840
about protesting the new Star trek out it’s coming out,

853
00:55:54,480 –> 00:55:57,760
could have been talking about January sixth. They don’t know.

854
00:55:59,079 –> 00:56:02,719
So apparently these people have guilty consciences because they pretty

855
00:56:02,800 –> 00:56:05,199
much thought I was talking about the No King’s rally.

856
00:56:06,039 –> 00:56:09,519
I was totally talking about the No Kings protests. I

857
00:56:09,639 –> 00:56:12,119
really was, and voided it make a lot of people

858
00:56:12,159 –> 00:56:15,320
mad am. I sorry. Heck no, I’m not sorry. Scrum.

859
00:56:15,599 –> 00:56:17,679
You need to get a sense of humor. It’s all

860
00:56:17,760 –> 00:56:21,079
tongue in cheek anyways. Oh yeah, it’s got and the

861
00:56:21,119 –> 00:56:23,920
best thing you can do. These people just were jumping

862
00:56:24,000 –> 00:56:27,599
all over me, and I ignored them because I don’t

863
00:56:27,719 –> 00:56:31,199
care enough to answer them. I don’t want to waste

864
00:56:31,280 –> 00:56:35,559
my energy on these people. They’re idiots. What I’m going

865
00:56:35,599 –> 00:56:37,960
to do is make sure that people know that what

866
00:56:38,039 –> 00:56:40,679
these people are up to is going to lead to

867
00:56:40,719 –> 00:56:43,920
the destruction of everything you know and love about this country.

868
00:56:44,239 –> 00:56:46,199
I’m Alan Ray. So that with Alan Ray, I will
