IN LAS VEGAS | IRAN WAR

Yeah.

What's up everybody?

We are wise.

We are indeed live.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Mm-hmm.

What's up everybody?

Uh all right.

I got this whole thing to work.

I got this setup to work.

Everything is completely fine.

Although this is a little bit of an awkward setup, I'm not gonna lie.

It's like, come on.

It's an okay setup.

Johnny Castro, what's up, man?

What's up?

Appreciate you.

Appreciate you.

What's going on, everybody?

I'm in Las Vegas right now because I was just on the Jake Shields podcast.

We just did the recording in the studio and uh it went really well.

It was a really good podcast.

I can't wait till it drops.

Looking forward to that.

I'm also going to be live tomorrow on Kick.

I think he is going to be doing a stream on Kik.

I'll be live there.

But yeah, that's why I'm here.

And uh you know uh I gotta say

This is my first time in this city, first of all.

Um, I just wanna I just wanna take inventory.

What's going on?

Take inventory a little bit.

I can barely see myself.

Alright, we're good.

It's not my favorite uh camera thing set up.

Let me see, let me see so you can see.

We all good.

This shit always takes so long to set up.

The lighting is so fucked up though, that's the problem.

Like over there is way better.

Mm.

Come with me on a journey.

And let me show you something.

Oh fuck, what did I touch?

No, the phone is working fine.

Alright, let me see how this looks.

I feel like this wa like this way is like way better, right?

Yeah, it's way better, right?

No, it's not.

I'm just trying to get this set up right.

Like, this is the only way I can see what I look like remotely.

This is fucking terrible.

Like, I need a like way to relax, you know, for this to work.

This is fucking

Uh

Let's try this way.

Keep fucking pressing buttons, I don't know what I'm pressing.

Uh

Yeah, it's not the best.

Not the best.

Alright, we're gonna have to make do with this.

For better or for worse.

All right, y'all.

What's going on?

Alright, we are here in Las Vegas right now.

I don't really like this setup at all.

This is a big problem.

Okay, uh

I am like super uncomfortable with this setup.

It's like I'm in a corner.

You know what might be better?

Wow, this is way fucking better.

Holy shit.

Guys, this is like a technical difficulty for sure.

First seven minutes.

I mean, I guess this is like a good intro, right?

Yeah, this is much better.

This is much better.

It's better than what we used to have, you know.

Gotta be proactively engaged.

What's going on, everybody?

Okay, so uh yeah, I'm in I'm in Vegas uh for the podcast.

Podcast has been concluded.

Podcast has been concluded, but uh, you know, I uh just finished it and I'm gonna be recording another.

We're gonna be going live tomorrow again.

Honestly, uh, I remember Eddie got like canceled for talking to Jake Shields.

After talking to him in private and on his podcast, I gotta say he is definitely somebody who is not hateful, you know, deep down.

And you gotta watch the podcast because it's actually crazy.

You're gonna see in real time how the left wing and the communist position in this country.

um has been like absolutely made totally uh alien from people who would otherwise be open to it, but you know, who are not because of it's being associated with like a specific kind of outrageous political correctness and unreasonableness when it comes to culture stuff and whatever.

And it's like uh you know, people claim and they'll be like, Oh, well Jake Shields is a Nazi, he's a Nazi, whatever and it's like fundamentally he's not, uh fundamentally not a hateful person, fundamentally not a psychopath, fundamentally somebody who, you know, has basic human values and integrity, but was being actively told by people who are

you know, calling themselves leftists, liberals and people on the right, that like these very reasonable sentiments and positions that most people have are fundamentally right wing and far right, right?

So, great to meet him.

It was a great podcast, and I can't.

I'm really looking forward to you guys, for you guys to see it, actually, when it gets released.

It's going to be quite controversial when it comes out.

You know, right-wingers are going to be crying about it, leftists are going to be crying about it.

Also, okay.

I saw a prediction of mine that actually came true.

Uh which is it's quite bright quite bright.

It's quite bright in here.

I saw a prediction of mine actually come true, which was if we started using the term internosbull, people would like freak out and say, Oh, we got 'em, it's evidence that they're Nosbols and it literally just means international Bolshevik.

And I saw that in real time on social media.

I thought it was fucking hilarious.

Somebody screenshotted a gorilla being like, We are intern internosbols and they're like, You see, we got 'em.

They're inter n and this is what they said.

International national Bolsheviks.

So instead of international Bolshevik, they said international national Bolshevik, which I don't know what that means.

Definitely means something, right?

But they basically um are trying to say that like this is smoking gun evidence.

We are international what is an international national Bolshevik?

You know?

It's just funny how you could just use words in certain ways that just like fuck with people's head.

It's like interna internosbo.

Literally just means international Bolshevik, right?

And they're like, well, why is the Z there?

It's like, well, I don't fucking know.

Why did you put a Z in there?

When you call us Nazbulls?

Like, I don't fucking know.

Apparently that's like the i apparently that's yeah, that's what it means.

Uh this is no, this is just my mobile camera.

Um, I mean I should bring no, uh, I'm not gonna bring this home.

This is my mobile setup, this is a mobile camera.

But uh, basically guys, I just came here to collect donations so that I could go to the slot machine to gamble all the money I've ever earned away.

And but I'm just kidding, I'll I'm too fucking stingy to fucking I'm Mr.

Krabb.

I'll never gamble in my life.

I don't even use a fucking slot machine, all right?

I'm gonna just piss away money, right?

But uh this is my first time in Las Vegas, I gotta say, this is the first time I've been here, this is the first time I've seen it.

And it's uh it reminds me a lot of Disney World.

It's quite nice actually, nice restaurants, nice places, it's clean, it's whatever.

I'm not a fan of gambling, I'm not a fan of any of that, but uh this is my first time here.

And I'll tell you guys what, I love Nevada, I love the desert, I love the environment, this is the Rocky Mountain environment.

Well, this is not the Rocky Mountains, this is the West.

And this is where the Epstein video was shot, the effigy video.

And uh I gotta say

You say hi to the Nevada chapter.

I I wanna okay, I'm gonna just like reveal something.

Uh some of the people in Nevada chapter showed me that there's like a

There's like a D S A M L event tonight.

um, Red Star or something like that.

They were having an event and I was basically like

Why don't we just like pull up in like a friendly way?

And yeah, we're against the DSA and everything, but it's like, Look, you got like MLs in Nevada and it's like, why don't we just like link up and talk?

Just like share experiences.

It's kinda like when Black September the Palestinian group met with the East German athletes and it's like we're just gonna link up and talk, you know.

We don't ne necessarily come from the same place, but

That's like such a random reference.

But uh no, I was thinking like why don't we just like attend the event and just be like just tell them like yo Haas is in town.

You're doing like a a a Marxist Leninist event tonight and we could just like link up, talk, just be chill, like, you know.

If we're all tankies and communists, like who cares, right?

So they messaged him on Instagram and like apparently.

They were like, No, mega communism is like, Oh fuck, I forgot the internet.

But like to be clear, I am totally chill talking to a PSL, DSL like in real life, like why not?

You know?

I'm not like a crazy sectarian.

Um, like, why don't you actually just meet us and see if we're like the monsters we're painted as, you know?

I'm not gonna be like crazy.

I'm not gonna like go there and start streaming and trolling and stuff.

But, uh, no, they were like adamantly no.

They're like, No.

Hell no.

They literally said hell no.

Um, so I was just like, All right, so why do people treat us like a cult or whatever?

Like, we're crazy when I'm literally the most chill person in the world.

If you're doing like an ML event and you're calling yourself the Red Star Caucus, it's like.

Why honestly, like, when I see a poster with Lenin on it, I'm like, let's just go chill.

Let's just go, like,

Let's just uh what do they call it?

Um what do they call it?

Let's just like shoot the shit, you know?

Um, it's like we are a different sect of a similar religion, you know?

But they're enti they're saying, No, heck no, you know, you're MAGA communists and

I was just like, okay.

And then I didn't really have other ideas for the Nevada chapter.

I mean, if you're here in Las Vegas.

Already, uh we could link up

Um but that would have been a much better

More productive thing to do.

I don't know.

Um, I would say that I do want to meet the Nevada people.

I just don't know how many are available.

For anything, you know, and I'm also leaving tomorrow.

So, yeah, there's that as well.

But uh overall very productive day.

Um

Podcast was like two hours long.

Uh y yeah, I mean I think that there's a lot of maneuvering going on on the right wing for sure to prevent our message from getting out in any kind of way.

Uh for people to like blacklist us and be like, You can't talk to these people, don't go near them, yada, yada, yada.

That's for sure a major thing that's been going on.

And uh I'm happy to say that, you know, Jake has enough integrity not to fall for any of that BS.

Which is why we were able to have such a productive conversation and talk about

Just like gi be given the opportunity to talk about communism, talk about Marxism, Marxism, Leninism.

And so on and so on.

Um

But uh

I love Nevada.

The environment's very nice.

I love the mountains.

I love the backdrop around Vegas.

Yeah, okay, so Julius Malemma sentenced to five years in prison for firing a weapon.

That is absolutely going to be a game changer within South African politics for sure.

And I think they waited for the moment when the EFF was starting to lose some electoral momentum.

That's when they really wanted to nail him because they think they were able to get away with it.

Yeah, he fired into the air.

I don't want to sound crazy.

Definitely they were looking for an opportunity to uh get him when they were uh losing a little momentum electorally and that way they could basically prevent

uh like a civil war from starting basically but no it's super fucked up and obviously we totally condemn it and uh

It's an extremely unfortunate development.

Obviously all over X people are still pushing the so-called white genocide narrative and talking about South Africa like

Guys, can I like not have to carry this?

Can I just like be free?

You know, I just like would prefer to have the freedom to Can you guys hear me just as well like this, or I do I gotta keep holding that shit?

Ones that you can hear me just as well.

Twos if you can't.

Sounds like ass.

Alright.

Fuck.

Then why is everybody saying once?

So, yeah, I wanted to check in with you all, give you those updates, and I also have a lot of things to talk about as well.

I do see there's a new wave of hilarious outrage about us on the TL.

I'm constantly seeing people cry about ACP, cry about ACP.

But ultimately, recruitment is driving up, being driven up because of that, because people more people are finding out about us.

That's just how it always happened.

Like the outrage cycles always benefit us.

We always get waves of recruitment and membership from them, like almost without exception.

That's actually happening.

I can confirm that.

So that's a very positive development, and it's uh nothing to be deterred about, nothing to lose.

Nothing to be in low spirits about, so to speak.

But uh uh I I I will tell you guys that um

Uh we're gonna be having that debate this weekend.

Oh, what a great thing to look forward to.

The anarcho-capitalist guy, the British anarcho-capitalist.

Oh, I'm just looking forward to that debate.

It's going to be so fun.

What a great use of my time.

And I guarantee you it's gonna be on some PPAP shit, right?

We're gonna be talking about PPAP.

100%.

We're gonna have to deal with that.

Just this pedantry and uh sophistry about propositions and all this fucking nonsense because everything has to be reduced to propositional logic, right?

And uh that's very unfortunate.

I'm not looking forward to that in any capacity whatsoever.

Uh but I w I will do it.

I will deal with the PPAP stuff and dismantle it on those terms if I have to.

You know.

Okay, I want to talk about something

I want to talk about something pretty outrageous, actually.

Hassan Piker is just stealing.

My aura.

And I'm okay with that.

I just want him to publicly acknowledge that, you know, this Haas guy's got a lot of aura.

I'm going to channel some of that.

'Cause I saw at Yale Hassan Piker sitting there with a dark black suit.

And he's like, we should have a dictatorship.

We do need a dictatorship.

And it's like, who the fuck are you channeling, bro?

Where are you getting that from?

And it's like I I overlooked so much.

The dude copies my fashion.

He wears the green jacket, the same green jacket that I wear, he wears that.

He wears the uh the black suit with the collar, right?

He was wearing that same shit, channeling my energy, right?

Even the thing that's on my ex-profile picture.

And now he's going full Haas talking about dictatorship.

And he was getting, by the way, he was getting quote-tweeted being like, oh, this is just left-wing fascism.

Apparently, everyone is becoming a Nasbull now.

Anyway, yeah, so he was trying to channel my energy for sure in that speech.

100,000%.

And I'm not saying I'm mad.

I'm just saying, first of all, give me some credit, bro.

Give me some credit.

Be like, yo, this Haas guy's got something going on.

He's got some aura.

He's got some swag I want to channel.

Hassan Pike, look, if Hassan honestly, Hassan Piker, if he could be a carbon copy of me in terms of my aura,

I would be mogged.

I'm not going to lie.

He's what?

Much bigger?

Probably wider as well.

I'm not going to lie.

You know?

He's like, what, six four?

Uh, probably wider.

There's nothing I could say.

If he had my positions, if he had like one for one

If he was like me, he would

In terms of personality, then I would be, I would have a lot to worry about.

I would have a lot to worry about.

But thankfully, but thankfully, but thankfully, he will never get there.

I'll always be.

I have a wider personality, you know.

I have a wider outlook, more powerful.

He's not going to become warlord type.

But uh I s I'm not gonna lie, like, look,

When he was like, We should have a dictatorship and he said that in front of a bunch of Yale students, I was a little bit amused.

I was kind of like, Okay.

Alright, I'm not going to say based, but just the, in an abstraction, like in a vacuum, it's kind of based, right?

Now you give the context.

The context is kind of well, you're still kind of just a Democrat and you're just kind of it's kind of just posturing a little bit, but the idea of going to Yale and the idea of a Turkish guy going to Yale

Uh wearing a Haas type drip, like black suit being like

If we are to have a dictatorship, let it be the pro it's like so Prussian, it's like so dark, it's like dark Mali energy, you know?

It's kind of like some dark Mali energy he was channeling for sure.

But does it mean is there substance behind it?

Is there no.

But it's just like, you know, it wasn't that video so popular?

Isn't that what the people crave?

Dark Mali, you know?

He stole it from us.

I don't look, the best form of flattery is imitation.

I'm not upset about it.

I'm not even saying I could do this shit the the best out of anyone.

I'm just saying nobody has my soul.

Nobody has my soul.

Nobody has my aura, my soul.

Why?

'Cause I'm just like that.

You know what I mean?

I just like that.

Uh I'm just like that.

Nobody can steal that from me.

It's just like it's impossible.

You know?

Uh it's just um

I would be very worried if that could be stolen.

No, I wouldn't be worried.

I'd be relieved.

I'd be like, I don't have to do this shit anymore.

I just fucking retire and

Ah, Gorda Beach.

But alas

Alas.

Um, I hope you can't see the reflection in my glasses because I have prisoners of war that were captured.

They're tied up right now, they're about to be executed.

As soon as the stream ends.

I'm just kidding.

Like, what a crazy thing to say, though.

Why that's actually like like literally

A fucked up joke, like straight up.

That's so fucked up and dark.

Uh anyway, yeah, I have a bunch of Yale students that were captured.

Bunch of Yale students who objected to the dictatorship idea.

We found them.

We kidnapped them.

Yeah.

Trial

Um

No, I don't care about I'm just talking about like being doxed or some shit.

I don't really give a fuck.

You know?

Okay, you can find my location.

I don't give a shit.

I honestly, I straight up don't give a fuck.

Like, okay, you can fi r here, like, while I'm here, I don't give a fuck.

Alright?

Like, okay, you know where I am.

Who gives a shit?

Right?

Anyway, uh.

I got nothing to hide, you know?

But uh no, it's such a shame, man.

Like if I if the DSA people were just like, Yo, you guys can come by the way, I would have never said anything.

I would have never like made a spectacle of it or said it in public and been like, Oh, you guys tolerated Haas, the dark the dark one.

You allowed the dark one into your safe space.

I would have just literally shown up, been completely chilled, talked to people, kicked back.

I would have ordered everyone pizza, by the way.

Fucking DSA, uh, whatever, Red Star, whatever you guys are doing in Vegas.

I just wanna know, I would have literally ordered food 'cause that's what I do when there's when I attend events, I order food for people.

I would have fucking ordered pizza, I would have ordered food, I would have been totally chill.

I would have I would have stopped by for like an hour and then left, right?

But no, I'm apparently I'm fucking Satan.

Apparently I'm the worst guy in the world.

Whatever, I honest honest to God I don't take it personally.

Honest to God, I don't take you personally.

But just understand who's the chill one and who's the one who's just fucking upset all the time for no reason.

It's like, okay.

Okay, you you have all these internet problems.

Okay, are you are you real like Redditors?

Like, is this a real thing?

LaRouche Heites and Dugan.

That Dugan thing, I met with Dugan, but the LaRouche thing is.

Quite strange.

Um, wouldn't it?

I feel like PSL people I met were pretty cool.

Uh, why don't I can I put this out there and just say this?

Like let's say PS okay, why doesn't PSL, DSA North Star and ACP just like do common events?

Like why don't we just like have a time where it's gonna like we're gonna like rent out this place

Okay, some water thing was going I thought my toilet just exploded.

Just like the water pipes or some shit.

Anyway, why don't we all DSA North Star, uh, P S L, A C P It's like let's just like um

Let's like have like a Tanky Con.

Like why the fuck not though?

You know?

Let's just like do tanky con.

Like we'll just we don't have to agree on everything.

How about we just like agree on like fundamentals?

Like we just make it about being a tanky.

We just like we have um Marxist-Leninist literature.

We have like posters of the communist posters.

We have like we theme it.

Yeah.

Che Guevara, Cuban flags, Soviet flags.

Like and then we just like have a convention where just like all the tankies meet up.

and literally just chill and network and discuss maybe discuss some different strategies, but we don't have to debate.

And then we just won't even talk about the things we disagree about.

Like we won't and we won't use bad words or anything.

You won't have to cry about anything.

Why am I the only unifier?

See, nobody else would suggest this idea.

I would suggest this idea.

TankyCon.

Okay?

Why shouldn't we do it?

Um

Wh w like, who's getting in the way of that?

Not us.

People dress up as m no, we that should be banned actually.

Maybe maybe we shouldn't do it, you know.

What if they bring pride flags to Tanki Kon?

Yeah, it's just like, okay, you know.

Do they have to?

Like do we have to make it the theme different than just

Communism, like do we have to bring all this other stuff?

Yeah, I guess we do.

We have to pay tribute.

When you think about it, identity politics, it's almost like a tributary politics.

Usually in a tributary context, like a wild peripheral zone, you know, there's different tribes you're paying tribute to and it's like there's just like this like interconnected tributary system.

We just kinda intersectionality just means we have to just like have this tributary system where we're just kind of like paying tribute to all these things that are just not the center authority.

Like I just think we should only pay tribute to Lenin and Stalin and our red flag.

Is that so much?

Why don't we just pay tribute to the red flag?

We will leave the American flags at home.

No problem.

We'll leave the American flag at home.

We only have the red flag, right?

I would have no issue with that.

But uh, no, they would make it I mean, even if they brought their dumb flags, I just wouldn't care.

I'd be like, Okay.

But you don't have to make that the central could we just have like the central theme be tanky stuff.

Um and I just think that would be like such a cool event.

It'd be so cool if we could just all

have a tanky con centered around

proletarian dictatorship, you know, centered around

Communist history and contemporary Communist states and ideas for how we move forward and being open minded about that.

Um

I don't know.

I d I I I uh

I was actually kinda surprised they were like, No, you can't come.

It's like but I understand the internet, but it's like in real life too, really?

Like this is how it is in real life as well.

Like this is just

Okay.

I guess so, you know.

I guess this is uh just how it is, you know, just super serious.

Um

Mm-hmm.

But uh what was I saying?

Yeah, so that that was something I would would have done tonight instead of stream.

But instead I'm just gonna stream and collect

Tribute.

Donations

Subscriptions

Uh I'm actually g by the way guys, I'm running off of no sleep and a lot of caffeine, so I'm high energy, but I'm a little bit discombobulated.

Oh my god, a strell standing, like, actually pulling through.

Thank you, bro.

Holy fuck.

Thank you, man.

Appreciate you.

Uh, yeah, so, um.

I'm gonna ha I have an extremely busy schedule the next few weeks.

Uh but I I know I have been missing some streams.

Base Populous, thank you, bro.

Appreciate you.

I've been missing some streams for sure.

Um

I should have streamed yesterday, ideally, but yesterday I was traveling.

And then I don't did I stream the day before yesterday?

Today's Thursday.

Did I stream Tuesday?

Yeah, I did stream Tuesday, right?

No, no, no, no, yeah, I did.

Wait, no, no, I didn't.

Only stre when did I stream last?

Monday?

I streamed Monday, didn't stream Tuesday because I got no sleep.

And then yesterday I was traveling.

So I've been skipping a little too much, right?

I understand.

It's what happens when I travel.

Uh by the way, can I uh complain about something really quick?

Somebody made a a photo of me and Hassan, and it's like No More Brother Wars or some shit.

Uh Johnny, what's up?

My first problem with that is like, why is AI every time AI makes uh anything generate I don't know if it's like how my face looks or something but AI always extrapolates that I'm like a fat guy.

They just always extrapolate that I'm just like this chubby fat guy.

And it's like, bro, it's not the truth.

It's like not true.

I'm not built like that.

Like you see like how I'm built.

Like I'm I'm I'm I'm not built like that.

You know like I don't know why it's always making me some fat kebab stand seller.

It's always generating me as like a fat ass kebab stand seller who's just like

It's not fair.

It's wrong.

Mad Beast, what's up, bro?

Appreciate you with the five.

Don't be generating me this way.

I don't look like that.

It's like it's always generating me as like, bro, I am like wide shaped like this.

Okay, I don't have a six-pack abs or whatever, but it's like I'm not I'm not I don't have a frumpy shape the way AI makes me and it's giving me a clavacular style uh um insecurity and dysmorphia.

And I'm just I'm just like, why do I have to look like that in that photo, man?

Anyway.

My sunglasses are gone.

No way, they're below the couch.

Um

Yeah, 'cause can you guys fix the AI?

When am I going to Chicago?

Uh I don't know.

I'm supposed to be going to May first, but I'm not going to be in Chicago May first.

I'm going to be somewhere else.

Somebody's like, Can you see the orb?

Wha what are you what are you talking about?

What do you what do you fucking mean by that?

What the fuck are you oh, the the oh oh, the Las Vegas orb.

I can't see it right now, but I have seen it and it's pretty mid

I saw, yeah, the the big the big building.

I did see that, yeah.

I'm not looking at it right now, but I did see it.

You want to like dox my location to fi figure out where I am.

Uh you know, I could actually deliver a pretty profound lecture about Las Vegas right now.

If anyone's down for that, I have a boring and it's not boring to me, but it's pretty fun.

I'll talk about the metaphysics of Las Vegas and

what it means for the story of this country and stuff, because I've been actually thinking about it a lot.

Okay, so I'm gonna start it like this.

A few days ago, I was actually watching a Netflix documentary, and the documentary is about a Mormon 'cause I'm a cult leader, I wanna know like how other cults are, right?

And then I was like, actually, I'm not a cult leader.

It's pretty fucked up.

Because I watched this Netflix documentary about this fundamentalist Mormon cult called the FLDS, fundamentalist whatever.

And it's actually like horrific and also slightly comical because, okay, there's this breakaway Mormon fundamentalist cult.

That you know regards this denas prophetic dynasty as like this father and then it passed over to his son, William Jeffs, or something.

He was like this crazy cult leader that said he talks to God or something.

The problem is that he uh went to jail because he was marrying children.

which happens in this country.

Um have he was caught, he went to jail.

And then he issued an order to the community and basically said no one is allowed to get married anymore, no one is allowed to have intimate relations or have children because he went to jail and because he could no longer you know have wives or have a marital relationship, he told his entire community that he like ran his entire cult that like all of them have to be totally celibate and cannot reproduce anymore.

And for years, like everyone would listen to the the will of the the prophet, right?

There's this random dumb guy, a literal like random, like stupid looking NPC like type guy, like really stupid, retarded looking guy, like an just your like bog standard, like you have to look at Samuel Bateman.

He's just like this, it's extremely like not intelligent, not knowledgeable, not proficient in any skill, not successful in any kind of way, and extremely they call in the show, I'm gonna take this term, I'm gonna borrow this term, in the show they called him a schlump.

They're like, yeah, he was a schlump.

I was like, I've never heard of the term schlump, but I'm going to use that.

'Cause he was a schlump.

He was just like a fucking literal NPC, right?

Just like you like, you know, when you're like, you're playing a video game, when you're coding a video game, generate me like a random dumb guy.

That's what he was.

Just like a random dumb guy.

Yeah, schlub.

Whatever, a schlub.

Just like a straight up a random dumb guy, right?

Okay, so in the FLDS, there were these two scumbags.

There's like these brothers.

They were pretty successful business-wise.

They had a lot of money.

Somehow.

This schlub, this random dumb guy, he woke up one day and he told them that he is the new prophet and that Warren Jeffs is actually dead, that it's a CGI simulation of the footage they're releasing of him, and that God is directly speaking to him and that he's the prophet now.

So these wealthy Mormons of the that were part of the cult.

I guess they just listened to him and they gave him all of their money.

And then here's where it gets really fucked up and disturbing.

They gave him all of their own wives.

He told them, God told me your wives belong to me and your daughters do as well.

So his daughter all of their daughters and wives were sent to be with this guy.

to be married to him, including minors, by the way.

Yeah, I watched like three episodes or four episodes of the documentary.

It was really fucked up, right?

And it's like this cult leader.

Is not even like a good cult leader.

He's like some random retard dumb guy who just told these people he's a prophet and they believed him without any

I I don't it made me think like is this like are we auton is are these people automatons and they just like it's like they're ants and like whenever a random ant comes along it's like I'm the new king ant.

It's just like you you're programmed to just believe it without questioning.

I don't know.

It was really weird.

Dubois, whatever.

Uh appreciate and sorry, not whatever.

Dubois, thank you so much, man.

But whatever, right?

Um regarding the ant thing.

Uh y yeah, so it's really disturbing.

It's like an extremely disturbing documentary.

I don't know if I should recommend it.

I was really disturbed by it.

I actually think it's pretty sick in general.

But uh

Okay, I'm going to talk about why I'm mentioning this.

So he's getting all this money from these two brothers that just gave all their money to him and are funding his lifestyle.

He has no job, by the way.

He doesn't do anything at all, by the way.

I'm not going to even mention what he does on his spare time, his free time, because it's really disgusting.

But um he starts in this small Mormon community that was founded on a cult.

He straight up starts buying Bentleys and Range Rovers, and him and his posse are just like driving around the hood, the Mormon hood, literally flexing on everybody about how wealthy they are.

And like he's like, Yeah, I wanna get this mansion, this private jet and it's like extremely worldly.

And he's just like they're foot filming him in the Bentley, just like driving.

And I'm like, it made me think about something.

It made me think of like Kevin Kenneth Copeland, the pastor, and like a bunch of mega-church priests.

And like, what is this aspect of our culture where we oscillate between this Puritanism to use it in a very flexible way?

I'm not going to disparage the actual Puritans.

But this kind of like religious fundamentalism that is solely focused on the spiritual, which is Christianity is known for.

It's strict focuses on the spiritual, denial of the material.

Which simultaneously happens to correspond to this like extremely shameless materialism, which is like, Yeah, I got a Bentley.

Yeah, I got that plane.

Yeah, God gave me this.

Yeah, I'm a flex on you with this Rolex.

I had to get I got this chandelier, I got this manga, I got all this shit, man.

And it's like, how did the congregation

see theological and spiritual value in that?

Like how do they not just like cynically be like, okay, this guy's just some fucking scammer trying to take our money?

No, they're still like, no, this is a holy man.

And then it's worth thinking about this.

Because it's the same shit with Trump.

Why the fuck do evangelicals support the fuck out of Trump when he just flexes on everybody?

They're like that right there is a man of Jesus.

And it's like literally a guy

With like known for being like extremely exorbitant and ostentatious and like very far from saintly and humble in the conventional sense.

It's like piety is not rewarded.

What's rewarded is this like extreme flexing.

And I wanted to think about the theology that's behind that, because there has to be, right?

How does that work?

And then I think about American fundamentalist Christianity and its emphasis in the Old Testament, and that's where it kinda clicks for me.

Which is, you know, um uh the the distinct nature of Christianity in America versus the rest of the world is that it is distinctly barbaric.

And what I mean by that is that because America lacked the barbaric civilizational foundations of a country, which includes, you know, the dimension

of politics, it includes the dimension of community building, it includes the dimension of like how earthly authority is established and so on and so on.

We never could take that for granted in ways that Europe could.

So Europe, for example, had the barbarism of feudalism, and feudalism forms the foundation of European civilization, more or less, right?

And of course, you know, other societies had

actual nomadic barbaric sedent uh you know nomadic sedentary dialectics you know barbaric

uh nomad uh steppe princes acquiring royalty and establishing dynasties.

You have this whole dynamic, right, which is at the foundation of civilizations.

But it's like America never had that, right?

So I think.

And this actually explains our attachment to Israel.

This is the key to understanding why America is so fundamentally wedded to Israel.

Um in America

That substantive kind of material, demiurgic foundation upon which spirituality becomes possible, we never built it, and so we brought with us a strong emphasis on the Old Testament.

The version of God that is incredibly wrathful, that is punitive, that is very material and demiurgic, fire and brimstone, and apocalyptic, and um.

Very much like awesome, not in their like everything is awesome, like you know, in like the old sense of the word awesome, like inspiring awe, right?

Mighty, earth-shaking, awesome.

Like there's a dimension of the sublime where it's like the Lord is this kind of terrible, powerful, great force that makes the world itself quake and tremble, and so on and so on.

And like that is fundamentally baked into the American theological and metaphysical outlook, right?

It's like a a very strong reliance on the Old Testament to fill the gaps where um the kind of barbaric mythical foundations of civilization are supposed to, right?

Once if you guys are following me with this.

Okay, good.

So, um

What I think's going on with the the the kind of like cult leaders or mega church pastors who are like very ostentatious and very much showing off the wealth is that

There's this dynamic baked into the American fundamentalist Christian or evangelical worldview.

Which necessiates the it necessitates a kind of intentional

wickedness, evil, and barbarism to serve as the foundation of good and

The message of Christ.

We have no access to the message of Christ, so we have to invent the foundation of this message through intentionally wicked and evil acts of depravity, which simultaneously are the only sanctified forms of intercourse with the material world.

So, if you don't know what I mean by that, it's that.

The material is fallen and depraved.

And only the spiritual is where Christ exists, right?

So the only sanctified way in which we can actually indulge in the material world, so to speak, and be material, is by kind of having a a level of proximity to the hellfire, right?

To Satan in a way, intentionally, which we do intentionally because we have to exist in this world.

But we intentionally kind of give our existence an evil character so that we can create the foundations of a Christiological redemption.

And that's what I think is going on.

I think that when that guy, Samuel Bateman, is driving around with his Bentley or when Kenneth Clopeland has these like, you know, private jets or they're wearing Rolexes and shit, I think the theological power behind

It for the flock is that it's almost like the old, there's a divine quality to it because it's like you're channeling the Old Testament God.

Look how awesome and powerful and terrible my message is.

You know, I have all this gold and evil and worldly power that surrounds me.

I've mastered and I've tamed the fires of hell around my message.

Right?

So it's no longer like, yo, I'm just flexing on your biss ass.

You know, I'm getting this Bentley, you know, whatever, you know, cynicism.

It's more like, this is how awesome and mighty and powerful my message is.

Just like how God has to be kind of wicked in a way in the Old Testament and be wrathful, right, with fire and brimstone.

Um the the proof of the mightiness of the the the the message has to be proven through a kind of intentional uh m kind of vulgar, I guess in the real sense of the word, materialism, vulgar materialism, right?

Um and this is you know, this is also why people find it easy to reconcile the brutality of American imperialism and the military with Christianity, right?

This is the same thing going on.

It's channelling that Old Testament because the New Testament lacks the foundation to justify itself in the American context, more or less.

America from the outside had a very privileged and unique relation to the Old Testament.

I think that is the main theological cause behind America's attachment to Israel.

America needs Israel because Israel is the Old Testament, and America has no access to the New Testament without the Old Testament.

Do you understand?

So this is why Jews are worshipped in evangelicism in the way that they are and that Israel has the special importance that it does.

you know, because we have no justification for a New Testament because we have no access to the old one, because this is America, it's a completely new land and so on and so on, uh in the American world view, right?

And um

So that's what brings me to Las Vegas, okay?

So important context, Vegas is in the real America.

We are past we are west of the Mississippi, right?

This is where America really is built as America and not as a vestige of British colonialism or European colonialism, right?

And I think what what is Las Vegas?

You know, I think Samuel Bateman and Kenneth Copeland, I think that they have a profound respect for Sin City, you know?

Like behind closed doors, you can be you can be baptized a million times and bask yourself in the New Testament and the message of Christ, the spiritual one.

But, you know, as Marx wrote on the Jewish question more or less, at the material level,

Um to to to enjoy and to exist is to sin.

And existence, as we know, through common sense, is inevitable.

We do exist materially, we subsist materially.

And so the the vernacular and the language in which America articulates its material existence is through sin.

And I think the counterculture played a fucking huge role in that, right?

Yeah, baby, Vegas, yeah, slots, man, hookers and coke and all this kinda

And it's like they know it's a sin, but it's also living, man.

That's how you live.

It's like there's association with material life with sin, right?

And we we think that's given

But that's not true for the rest of the world, right?

It's like I I recall the uh Chinese documentary with Marx and Confucius, and it's like they're laughing.

Like, it's kind of uncanny, like, how they're just like randomly laughing, like, what's the joke?

And it's like, well, no, there's just kind of like this joy for life that in the Confucian ethics, like, being good and ethical also corresponds to a joy.

It's like a joyousness and celebration of

you know, reality and living in a way, you know.

And I think that that's true for the rest of the world, that the the material world is not inherently depraved or evil.

But we consider it to be.

Um and you know, look, I'm not like a decolonial scholar or anything, but th those Libtards do kind of have a point when they talk about how this is part of like the colonial ethos and frame of mind.

That we created these citadels and colonial fortresses and we consider the wilderness and nature and the indigenous as like inherently depraved and evil savages, right?

So like that dialectic is for sure there.

um this dichotomy between like heaven and earth or heaven and hell or whatever, right, that we impose on civilization and on the world is there and it's baked in.

And I think Vegas, Sin City, is like a spiritual capital of America in a lot of ways, you know?

It's one of the capitals of America because, first of all, it's a city intentionally built on material indulgence, so to speak.

But it's not standing opposed to the Christian order.

It's regarded as a foundation, right?

Um

So there's this uh

It's like a city built on sin in order to create the Old Testament that justifies the New Testament, right?

And uh

y you think about the Epstein Baal empire and like the whole thing about Baal worship.

The Baal worship is real, but it has nothing to do with the Canaanite Baal.

It has nothing to do with the historical Baal of the Car Carthaginians and stuff.

I think this is a ball that was invented by American

Evangelicism itself, you know?

BAL stands for the material, the warped and alienated conception of the material world that is inherent to our civilizational alienation, right?

And it's like

W the elites worship Baal in the same way that there's a Egyptian pyramid in Las Vegas with a Sphinx.

It's just as fake and artificial, you know?

But like the theme is very much there.

Like you look at Vegas, they have that pyramid, they have this kind of like old.

Babylonian theme of sin and so on and so on, indulgence and what have you.

But don't when we frame this in terms of a dichotomy between

Like it's this versus

The fundamentalist Christianity, or the fake version at least, we're playing a wrong game because this is

This is a consequence of

Mm-hmm.

Evangelicism.

It's not a it's not a dialectical opposite.

It's a

Necessary opposing tension that's baked in, right?

Um and the only way to defeat Baal, so to speak, is that we need our own Babylonia, we need our own.

story of Gilgamesh, so to speak.

We need our own um

Uh

Uh appropriation of the material world.

Because I just found it so odd when I was watching that documentary, because I was like, This guy thinks having a fucking Bentley matters and he's like this he's supposed to be a prophet of God, right?

It's like I think about myself and I'm like, I'm not impressed by that.

I'm not even a religious person claiming to be a prophet of God or whatever.

I'm not claiming I'm like a super religious person.

But like even I can live without a fucking Bentley.

Like I don't need I don't consider that to be like the ultimate accomplishment.

Oh you're so you're such big shit.

Like I fucking don't think anything of a Bentley, but

Like there's like a theological significance to the value that we associate with like expensive, stupid brand goods.

It's like, oh my god, this is a Gucci.

It's like, I look at Gucci and I'm like, okay, that's theology.

You're like, this is you're giving this like a theological value.

It's because you could say, oh, it's actually like based on rare materials.

No, it's not.

It's all fucking upmarked bullshit.

So you're working it's like a brand that has this immense power over you and this immense value.

And this is not the commodity fetishism Marx described, by the way.

Whoever says that's a fucking retarded pseudo-intellectual.

This is something completely different we're dealing with, right?

Um

And I'm like, you know, as a communist, a real one at least, I'm not as impressed by the worldly as mainstream Christianity is in America.

Like, okay, Rolexes don't impress me.

I don't I'm not intimidated by them.

I'm not intimidated by exorbitant luxury and money and all that kind of stuff.

I don't associate that with like a a genuine worldly power.

Um which is interesting to think about.

Like if I was a cult leader, which I'm not saying I am or I would be

Actually, it's kinda like a fucked up comparison.

But if I was like one of these crazy cult leaders, like I wouldn't I wouldn't be like driving a Bentley.

I'd be like, I don't need a Bentley.

But they do need it, despite claiming to be like prophets of God.

Yeah.

Do you guys understand what I'm saying with that?

It's like

How can you present this supposedly otherworldly divine message, yet simultaneously be so intimidated and impressed with like

designer brands and very conventional

Um

uh very conventional

Um

Rankings of value.

I feel like to be a really good cult leader.

You would change what's considered valuable.

Like, I don't know, you like, you'd you'd arbitrarily assign extreme value to, like.

PopTarts

I'd be like, Oh, if this guy has pop-tarts, he's really like it.

You know, that's like all cult leaders are fake.

Cults are not real.

The ultimate cult.

Is the cult of the bourgeois hegemony.

The bourgeoisie is running the cult.

Because even the fucking guy pretending to speak to God, who's a pedophile cult leader,

Claiming that God is telling him that he needs to take everyone's wives or whatever.

It's like even he is prostrating to symbols of value and status that are created by bourgeois civilization and culture, right?

Isn't that interesting?

Um

like that's why cults are bullshit when you think about it, because if you really want to just like create a totally new principle of society, it can't be a cult, it has to involve society, right?

Um

So, uh okay, I'm telling you this story because Vegas

Um

I like to think in a very systematic fashion, so like when I first landed at the airport and I just saw a bunch of fucking slot machines everywhere.

I was like, interesting.

Um before I get into that, everything I'm talking about David Lynch exposed, especially in Twin Peaks The Return.

But Twin Peaks is uh like dichotomy or dualism between the black and white, you know, the black lodge, the white lodge.

And the uh

The the opposing kind of cosmological and metaphysical principles at the heart of reality, it was very much about America.

And I really loved how in Twin Peaks the Return.

There was a kind of

Um, magical perception that uh uh what was his name, Stupid Coop, the version of.

Cooper the the Tulpaw.

What was his name again?

who couldn't talk, he had this magical perception related to gambling, right?

He could go to the casino and kind of intui Duggy, he could intuitively perceive which slot machines are gonna like hit the jackpot and which ones aren't.

And it it was like rooted in this like sixth sense that was very much based in this attunedness to metaphysical principles underlying reality.

And uh it makes you think about gambling and the kind of uh in the ballpark of Suhail Malik's ontology of finance.

I don't know if you've ever heard of that, I keep recommending people read it.

But this idea that like uh there's an ontology behind the gambling industry in Vegas and and so on and so on.

S it's an entire industry.

I mean this entire city is founded on gambling.

That's crazy, right?

And obviously now it's corporate and it's totally not the true foundation.

It's just something different.

But um

Uh m at at the root of gambling is speculation.

Now gambling is a kind of form of irrational speculation because the math just doesn't add up, no matter how you cut it.

But speculation is the notion that you're going to get more than you put in

um, fundamentally, you know, on the basis of things that are just fundamentally outside of your control.

That's what separates speculation from an industrious, successful capitalist, right?

A speculator just buys an asset and sits on it and speculates that it's going to increase in value.

whereas a industrious capitalist will buy something and then put in the make actual investments that on a like scientific basis or at least on some rational basis are expected to yield a surplus because it's more efficient or something, right?

And uh gam gambling is kind of this um

This kind of uh

irrational speculation, but one of the interesting I okay, I'm going to say some crazy ass shit.

I'm not going to say Las Vegas is a f is the America's first preeminent socialist city.

I'm not going to say that 'cause it's fucking crazy.

But it's like

The idea of a city entirely founded upon speculation is really interesting, right?

Because a traditional capitalistic city is founded upon capital.

It's founded upon a specific process of the accumulation of surpluses, which leads to the creation of real estate and the creation of

mm, you know, uh uh um s service sector, restaurants, uh, livable city, factories, industry and so on and so on.

Vegas, on the other hand,

is a city built and founded upon um speculation, right, gambling.

People just pouring in money with no necessarily rational expectation of getting any kind of surplus or return on it.

But a kind of false hope that

They will, right?

And yet out of that, a modern city was constructed with modern infrastructure and sewage and a power grid and access to water, which is quite hard actually in this region of the country, with an entire sprawling real estate industry, a lived livable, lived in city with everything you can expect in a modern city.

And then, okay, the dimension of money laundering, I haven't even gotten into that, which is probably the most fundamental factor.

But I just like to think about how interesting it is that.

Uh as a Marxist, cities like Vegas should worry you a little bit.

If you're going to treat treat them in a vacuum, right?

If you're a conventional, uncreative Marxist, I should rather say.

Because you can't really explain.

the vast profits that exist here in terms of any labor theory of value.

Now if you understand labor theory of value, it's aggregate, so you can't isolate it to a city, for example, it's preposterous.

But Vegas should get you thinking about Dubai.

It should get you thinking about other speculative capitals or citadels, so to speak, which are primarily driven by revenues and profits, which cannot be explained by any traditional structure of capital accumulation, right?

And I think that's really what what I'm getting at here.

And why is it so remarkable that you have Vegas as a city founded upon speculation

in the place that it is, because the entire enterprise of westward expansion and the foundation of the United States in a in a way, if you think about it, was a speculative venture.

Like the expansion westward was all driven by a speculative dream, so to speak, that the value of the land is going to be worth more than it is upon discovery, right?

And um

So it's like v there's a very strong metaphysical and even theological dimension to cities like Las Vegas when you think about them in in those terms, right?

Um

Usually

uh civilizations in the sense of classical capitalism are built upon existing material premises.

But America is built upon not an existing material premise, but a speculative anticipation of those premises

uh existing in the future or being created in the future, right?

Can you not hear me?

What's going on?

Why is everyone freaking up?

Why the fuck is everyone freaking out, alright?

You also drop a twenty or something 'cause you know, I you know I'm just kidding.

I mean, I don't know guys.

And I I'd appreciate it though.

You know, you drop a twenty, you drop something like that, you know.

Anyway guys, uh

Just like grab it up in here, you know.

Uh whatever.

Uh what was I saying?

Notice how when I'm like the minute I stop talk I'm like a true Sufi

Um

Sufi teacher master.

Because you know, back in the day these Sufi teachers, this is how they make money.

They were basically live streamers.

They would go village to village or whatever.

They would share crazy wisdom and they'd be like, Can we crab it up in here, y'all?

Let's crab it up

Huh.

Holy fuck Cal with the five, appreciate you man.

Thank you, Roy.

Appreciate you.

Bro, I will never fucking s gamble in my life, right?

I'm way too stingy for that.

I'll never fucking gamble, okay?

I'd never fucking do that.

Cal, bro, thank you so much, man.

I actually appreciate that a lot.

And let me continue on the line of thought that I'm on.

Okay, now I've talked about this before, guys, but

Do you notice how there's a there's a proximity between speculative driven

um production and socialism.

Isn't socialism itself a type of speculative driven form of production?

Because socialism

puts in command not an existing material principle, gold, which is what money ultimately is under capitalism, right?

Socialism puts in command of production the plan, right, the five year plan, some goal in the future that has not yet been realized, which all of society is going to work to realize.

At some future point, right?

Blackpack, what's up?

So maybe appreciate you with a five.

Maybe there is a strange proximity between Las Vegas and the principles that govern socialist countries in the sense that

In the sense of speculation being the common denominator, right?

And there maybe this is what grounds the inherent socialistic Amila, thank you so much.

I really appreciate it.

Thank you.

This is what really grounds the foundation and basis of uh

Of America's role in the ushering in of communism, right, in the world.

Because America is a speculative enterprise.

in and of itself.

Gorilla, what's up?

Appreciate you, man.

I mean, like, you you need to understand, like, my way of thinking.

A lot of people find it schizophrenic and fucking crazy and it's outrageous.

And I I very much like Ibn Arabi and Wahdat al Gujud and this kind of idea that

I don't have to give a fuck about made up distinctions that are without justification, you know.

Ev I'm gonna presume I begin with a presumption of the interconnectedness and unity of all things in a free flowing way, right?

And

This is why I say, for example, I find a connection between the speculation

and socialism at the level of

What compels people when they come to a city like Las Vegas?

I'm talking about Old Vegas, right?

Gambling.

To take money that they have and speculate it on gambling, put it throw it in gambling.

and with a irrational expectation that they're going to get more of a return than what they put in, because there's a small chance that it is possible.

Well, ultimately, it's because they're pursuing a dream.

They have a fantasy or a desire in their head that is not yet justified in a way that is rationally perceptible to people in the material world, yet they still have the dream and the desire in their head.

Isn't that an interesting thing?

Desire is based on and defined by the orientation towards something that you anticipate might exist or is possibly could exist, but which you don't have now.

It's actually this

Uh, reality and dimension of desire that is responsible for why Alexander Kojev regarded uh the universal and homogenous state to be the final end of history, right?

Because he said that's what distinguishes human beings from animals.

Human beings can desire things that don't exist yet.

um but kind of exists somewhere in their head or some s some somewhere they can perceive that doesn't actually it's not justified anywhere uh in a way that's a that we can have knowledge of immediately.

Um

And he he regarded this as a kind of um imminent negativity that is at the heart of what a human being is, right?

Um the imposition of a nothing on a something.

You know?

Your desire is a nothing.

It's not actually somewhere in the real material world yet.

There are things that do exist in the material world.

You're clearing forests.

You're you're clearing things that exist in nature for the purpose of realizing something that doesn't even exist yet.

And if you think I'm off the rails describing things in these terms, this is exactly how Marx describes human beings.

He says what separates the worst architect from the best of bees is that an architect first raises in his imagination

the object of uh construction.

He has something that's already there in his head.

Uh

before it's justified materially.

And Marx says this is the essence of what labor is.

This is what makes labor labor, the transformative process of realizing something that doesn't actually exist yet.

Um

And

There's absolutely a proximity between that and speculation, you know?

Uh somebody blowing all their money in Vegas because they have a dream that they're going to get rich and wealthy and live a certain lifestyle.

Um

is in a way the assertion of a principle

of existence beyond merely the acquisition of money,

Onto the ec economy, onto your economic existence.

And ultimately, the dream is having more money.

You guys need to understand the brilliance of dialectics.

I don't have patience with small-minded, undialectical thinkers.

Because isn't it brilliant how this is how socialism emerges from capitalism?

Not this Vegas or whatever, but like this specific dialectical structure of

You are dreaming of money.

Okay, that's your you're fantasizing and you're desiring having more money.

So you do things.

You you pursue getting richer and wealthier because you desire money, right?

But it's like it's the very structure of desire that's in command, not the money itself.

And in this way one economic principle becomes subordinated to another,

Which the form of which is the same, it's still money, but the content it changes because the relationality is different.

And this is exactly how, for example, capitalism emerges from feudalism.

The goal in feudalism was I want to be uh have more land or whatever, but the acquisition of more land w only became possible if it was through a capitalist relation, right?

So, like this is how one mode of production emerges within an old one.

And uh when we're talking about speculation and desire and fantasy and so on and so on, specifically, um

You see, the thing is, is that it's not rational.

That's what subordinates the principle of capital to the principle of speculation or desire, for example.

Because if you're a true capitalist

You are a rational actor who is going to put resources to work in a specific industrious way with the rational expectation and outcome, almost certainty even that your enterprise is going to break even, that you're going to be able to accumulate capital.

So your desire for money never actually blunts your.

Industrious sensibility of what is real and what is possible based on what exists now, right?

And that's not true for an era of speculative economics, you know?

And people just don't appreciate that.

They they just assume that the desire for money and the um

The pursuit of money are the same thing, and they're not.

The pursuit of money and the desire for money are not the same thing.

The desire for money is, in reality, a desire for a specific way of life, Lambo or whatever.

But the pursuit of money is a specific economic relationship that materially exists.

It's a specific structure of economic relations.

It's not necessarily a desire.

It's not necessarily a greed or a fantasy, even.

Um the root of capitalism is not greed.

Greed is far too subjective.

The root of capitalism is a specific relationship of production that is structured around the accumulation of capital.

And that's just the form it takes.

It's not because capitalists desire money necessarily.

Okay, my battery's at twenty percent.

Okay, wonder if you guys like this lecture or whatever.

I'm glad.

It's eleven forty three Eastern Time.

Okay, good.

Got it.

So these are the things I'm thinking about while I'm in Sin City.

In Las Vegas, I'm thinking about how this is the ball capital, right?

But ball is not actually ball.

In fact, the real ball historically

uh was originally a monotheistic deity.

Baal just meant lord, right?

Uh but there were spec the problem was the specific balls.

There were specific balls.

Sorry, we're talking about balls too much.

There were specific balls.

Baal, okay, specific deities with uh a suffix or prefix next to Baal.

So there's a

I forget their specific names, but um Baal is very general term for Lord or God, right?

And uh

That is the same in Hebrew or Semitic or Arabic of El or Al, right?

Arabian polytheistic deities had Al, like there is Al-Izut, for example, and Hubal, for example.

And the monotheistic message of the Prophet was no, there's just Allah.

And what is Allah's specific characteristic?

He doesn't have one specifically.

He's the all, he is the one, he is the God in general, right?

All polytheism.

Is founded upon original monotheistic worship that becomes corrupted through the division of labor.

And God as one is the integral totality of labor.

God encompasses all these different characteristics.

But as the division of labor specializes and increases, there's attributes and aspects of God that are treated as separate.

From the one God, right?

And then this is how God is divided, right?

So monotheism corresponds to a restoration of the integrity of the totality of labor.

Um whereas um the tenden the principle of private property is rooted in the continuation of the um

divide of the division of labor, so to speak, to be to be simple, right?

So Baal it's the same as, for example, in in Sumerian it was en, right?

There you had en key, uh you had various different deities and the the main root word or whatever was n, you know An.

Anu was the primordial monotheistic deity, and then from there you had the specialization of different terms and names.

By the way, most polytheistic deities

in Eurasia, with the increased integration of civilizations and expansion of trade routes and contact between different peoples, were mutually recognized as the same deity, right?

So for example, Ishtar and uh

A start from the Phoenicians and Inanna from the Sumerians.

And Venus in the r for the Romans and uh

Aphrodite for the Greeks, everyone just rec oh, this is the same cosmological principle we're referring to, right?

Um all of which corresponded to a specific celestial alignment or pattern.

And uh

That that was basically a principle of language.

For example, how do how do languages become mutually intelligible, right?

If you're Spani or let's say you're you're from a different planet, you speak a different language, right?

But you have water.

So I call it water, you call it something else, but we recognize it's the same thing, right?

But are we talking about the same thing?

Well, it's the same thing when it comes to the development of metaphysics and religion and philosophy and all these other kind of things, right?

And polytheistic pantheons, you know, they it's simply a language distinction.

Um

But the discovery of a common principle based on that.

So, uh, that's something people miss a lot, you know.

One of the things I I I looked up, which are pretty pretty fucking weird actually, I remember like studying this.

Um

So, you know, suppose so so istar, which is the kind of

specific principle of uh

the mother mother kind of mother Gaia, mother goddess principle.

Uh you could say Sophianic in a way that would be compatible with Abrahamic traditions.

Uh but this kind of like feminine uh divine feminine whatever notion that corresponds to the ultimate rhythms and cycles of nature and of human societies

in their predictability and sedentary cycles or whatever.

Um

always corresponds to the planet Venus, right, the morning star.

And um

I kind of find it strange how in the Aztec cosmology, the morning star is.

for some reason associated with similar principles, cosmological principles, as the Sumerian Inanna, right?

It's also true for

Mars, and so I couldn't find anything about other celestial bodies, but that one specifically, the Morning Star, it's like similar qualities and characteristics are being attributed to it.

Which

Could not be explained.

By mutual contact.

So if there's no mutual contact, why are they giving this celestial phenomena?

uh similar kind of metaphysical principles and characteristics.

is kind of a pretty good case for astrology when you think of like, if if the astrology if there's any kind of parallel between the astrology of a people on one side of the world and another who never contacted each other, then maybe they are onto something

When they're attributing certain characteristics to certain celestial phenomena, you know.

I don't know, just the thought.

Just food for thought, you know.

I think the dumbest explanations are the alien one, ancient aliens.

But it's like I could see why people think that because ultimately you guys wanna know what's fucking scary.

Every religion, when they're talking about heaven, they're talking about whatever's in the sky.

Like the sky is always the opening in all human religions since the beginning of time, the sky is the opening to our access to the higher order.

Um

And it's like there's this common axis mundi of below us is where bad and demonic things are, and above us is where there is the good, or there is the divine, there's the beyondness, the otherworldly, literally, right?

And uh

That's like universal, completely universal, right?

Like nobody worships below.

It's always the above, the beyond.

With no specific understanding that this is there are other worlds out there, right?

Nobody actually fucking knows that.

But um the sky, you know, is always associated with the divine.

When the Bible and the Quran and so on and so on, when they talk about heaven, they're literally talking about heaven.

Like they're they're not talking about they're not talking about a cloudy dimension where there's clouds.

They're literally talking about the fucking stars above us, right?

Um

And that's the beyond, right?

Also the the um ancient uh

Uh Zoroastrian the the the root of regarding fire with the ritual purity that it has in in the Zoroastrian religion is that fire burns upwards.

So it's this kind of phenomena which is oriented up, right?

And this is what makes fire associated with Ahur uh Ahura Mazda versus Ahriman.

Do you think Joe Biden has a chance in twenty twenty seven?

Uh, do you think you owe me ten subs for saying that?

Ugh, it's like

But to circle back on what I'm talking about.

Um

Ahri Man, or sorry, uh, I don't believe the alien thing at all, but I understand why people might if they're stupid.

But, uh,

It is profound that there was already like an intuitive understanding that outer space is a great beyond, you know, with shit in it.

We never how could we know what stars were?

How could we possibly understand that, right?

But the sky is this kind of phenomenal opening, this kind of uh space of ontological disclosure to us, right?

It's it's quite profound actually.

Uh it's like when animals acquire the ability to speak and acquire self relation, which only we humans have, self-relation.

No other being in existence that we know of has that.

The first thing we do is start.

Orienting ourselves toward

Beyond, right?

Toward the stars, toward the heavens.

Which is quite interesting.

if you think about it in like the Russian cosmist sense, that we have like this inherent destiny to orient ourselves to the beyond, right?

It's like on this planet Earth, when living beings the moment they acquire self-relation, the moment they acquire what we call consciousness, I don't like that term, but self-relationality, right?

The moment we acquire that, the moment living organisms acquire that, the first thing that they open themselves to and become oriented toward is the starry heaven above, right?

And I think that would that could even be a definition of humanity.

The human is different from animals because only human beings care about the beyond.

Only they care about the stars, really.

Birds don't give a fuck about that.

Or maybe they do and just they just take it for granted or something.

But we alone care about the stars, right?

Something that provides us with no utility necessarily beyond, of course, actually, profound utility, actually.

It's kind of a stupid thing to say.

Because no, they do provide us utility.

They're a great map.

The stars are our map of the world, right?

In the beginning.

Uh the ability to migrate and

track migrations and so on and so on.

very much was rooted in.

looking at the sky.

to know where we are, right?

Our sense of space comes from space.

Space in the abstract actually comes from our gazing upon space, right?

The comprehension that we dwell within a world, uh we are here, you know, that there that it is a space, right, that it is a dimension.

Uh we only are able to kind of first acquire a relationship or an awareness to that because we can look up at the stars above, right?

That is the ontological dimension.

Let me check the battery completely end this because the battery run however, we are running upon a

I am not able to charge this midstream twelve percent because occupying the

USB C port is the microphone thingy, right?

The thing that makes the microphone possible.

So without the USB C port, I can't have a microphone.

I would love to continue collecting donations and just streaming, but we we are running out of time.

Wireless charge that I don't know how to do that.

I do not know how to do that.

Also we are crooked, Esklock.

Guys, isn't it interesting how when I travel I can come up with an interesting topic to talk about even if I'm not at my stream?

Here I was thinking I couldn't, but I I really could, right?

You just gotta give me a round of applause for that.

Phone mic stream.

Once a week do a phone mic stream.

'Kay.

Uh

Okay.

Uh well it's not free guys.

If you want me to contin no, I'm just kidding.

I could I could continue.

Don't don't worry.

No problem.

Hey.

Hmm.

Guys, I don't like how I just I'm squeezing everyone dry.

This is fucking crazy.

Lionel, what's up?

You guys are too generous.

You guys are honestly too generous to me.

I'll critique you for that.

You're way too generous.

You're wi no nobody who gets four hundred views is this supported.

Um

Bye.

Vegas is making me greedy.

Not at all.

I'm actually very greedy when I'm at home as well.

D, what's up?

Dee Polo, what's up, bro?

Appreciate you.

Can I fucking say something with like all honesty?

And I ones if you're fucking crystal clear with me.

If you are in any way financially struggling, if you are in any way unable to just shit out money, do not fucking donate to me.

Okay?

Could we be clear about that?

If you're in any way, like if you in any way need this, if you're like you have a family, you're like you don't ever fucking spend a dime on me.

Okay, I appreciate my army and my soldiers because you get the you have the message and you have the belief, okay?

There's no money that can change belief.

And I appreciate you guys a lot for donating to me, but to be fucking clear, like I never want anyone who actually doesn't have money to squander.

Bro, a stress Annie, thank you so much for ten.

I never want anyone who actually doesn't have money to squander to be spending money on me.

For real.

Okay, don't ever fucking feel guilty if you're not spending money on me.

Like

Okay.

You know?

Thank you so much, Trail Stanny.

And it's like, look, guys, if ultimately you can no longer afford to support the streams, I will find a way to support myself.

Like, don't worry about that.

All right.

I don't want you and nobody should ever be fucking guilt tripped into donating to me, to be clear.

I'm going to be fucking real about that.

Yeah.

Bro, don't even make an excuse.

You don't need an excuse.

You're like, I'm emp unemployed.

Bro, don't fu you don't have to say shit, bro.

As long as you're part of this army, as long as you're part of this fucking cause,

You are a soldier in this cause.

Like you have my recognition.

You understand?

Money

Is not.

Money will money's money, you know?

If I truly became broke.

I would I believe I could find a way.

You know?

I believe I could do something.

But uh

What's invaluable is the unity of this community ultimately.

Hmm.

I didn't sleep last night, but I don't give a fuck.

I don't give a fuck.

I got the energy.

Yo, I'll source.

What's up, bro?

Let me check the battery and see if I gotta replace this.

Eight percent.

goodbye with this microphone.

Okay, once if it's just like bearable

'Cause the mic is gone.

Once if it's bearable.

Alright, I appreciate that because I feel fucking bad about the shady quality.

Uh, but if it's bearable, I literally don't even have time to plug this shit in.

Holy fuck, I'm scared.

Hold on.

Saved by the bell.

I'm free.

I want to be free.

I want to be free.

We should be playing music.

I want to be free.

I want to be free.

What's that song?

Someone tell me what that song is.

Tell me the song name right now, please.

Tell well, that's not the name of the song.

Oh, it's by Queen.

I wanna read it.

Let's play the Assad song.

There was a version of this song with like Hitler.

It was like a compilation of Hitler.

And for some reason this song was like

There was like a music video for the song, but it was like Hitler footage.

It's like Hitler giving speeches and shit.

That's what I grew bro, YouTube used to be fucking crazy.

You guys remember the angry German kid?

Remember the I remember when I was like in middle school.

We used to laugh because there was a version of the Angry German kid overlaid on a Hitler speech.

And it was like Hitler and the the audio was the Angry German kid.

Who remembers that shit?

Who remembers that shit?

Does anyone remember that?

Used to be fucking wild.

And nobody knew what he was saying.

And it is funny the the part where he's like remember the part where he's like, OOOOOOOOOOOOOH and it's like it shows Hitler doing like this like oooh like I don't know.

It overlaid well.

Very much used to be a red lib.

Brought me around to understand the ACV point of view and listening.

Keyword of the struggle.

Thank you, bro.

Appreciate that.

Uh appreciate that man.

I am also Zopanzi Mike.

That content doesn't exist anymore.

It everything became serious when people started becoming real fans of Hitler, you know.

YouTube censored it.

Uh

Epic bacon.

Isn't it funny how many celebrities I've just come across in my time?

Like, remember Zirka's streams where uh the epic bacon guy or epic mealtime, what was his name?

Just like randomly there.

He's like randomly one of the characters on the Zerko podcast that I'd be on all the time.

Yeah, I remember Dead Mouse just randomly Remember remember on the Zerko podcast where like any time somebody new would join, I'd just start clowning on them, being like mean as fuck.

And then like randomly

Dead Mouse joined, and I would just be like, fuck it, you know, just another guy.

And I would like be like, I would roast him just like anyone else.

He's like, Alright, it's Deadpool.

I don't know why he's here Like, who but Zerka like knew all these fucking people.

I don't even know how he knew these people.

Yeah, I told Dead Mouse he made bad music.

What the fuck, bro?

Bro, I was so manic at that time on Twitch.

I was so fucking manic that, like, nothing surprised me anymore.

Like, even if the president joined the stream, I'd be like, doing my sway.

I'd be like, fuck are you, you stupid ass old bitch, fuck you.

I'd be like, nobody can get him out.

Like, I didn't give a fuck, bro.

I didn't give a fuck about shit.

I was manic as fuck.

I was like a clean sword rippling through time.

'Cause I was just suddenly becoming famous and viral.

And when you go from like not being well known to being super famous, you no longer like give a fuck about anything.

You're like

You're like, Ed Miles, who the fuck are you?

Would you have PewDiePie on your stream?

Like, what opportunity would I ever have to have that?

You know?

What opportunity would I have to

Zirka is related to this kin I don't know, bro, that's crazy.

Yeah, what the fuck, Tobuscus?

Okay, so so Jake Shields

Put out the debate offer.

Tubuscus was like randomly there.

Y'all you all saw that?

Tobuscus is like randomly replying.

Like, bro, what's going on?

Yeah, Tubuscus wanted to debate me.

which we should make happen.

I mean, like, why I don't know

Or maybe he said you wanted to watch the debate.

I don't know.

Tabuscus was there though.

That's all I know.

And then remember how I literally muted him.

I thought he deleted his account, but it turns out I muted him and I forgot about it.

Remember Mark Pellegrino, the actor from Lucifer, the lit literal Lucifer from the show?

He became so active in my replies.

It's not like we just interact to him with one time.

Okay.

First of all, the lore is crazy.

Somebody's got to make a wiki of this shit to keep track.

Alright?

Because I remember debating him.

And then he's like, what's the legal code for your party?

And I just read off some random numbers.

And then he put on his glasses.

He's like, okay, I'm looking it up right now.

Six, four, two.

The trolling was fucking crazy, right?

But then after that debate, he's in my Twitter replies like every day, every other day, he's in my fucking replies, right?

And it's like he became so prolific in my notifications that I fucking muted Mark Mark Pellegrino, the actual fucking Hollywood actor Mark Pellegrino.

I just muted him.

I was like, bro, what is this world that I live in?

you know?

It's such a small world, like wha I'm muting Mark Pellegrino.

Why is he in my replies?

I'm literally a nobody.

It's there's so many random characters that interact with me.

And I'm never surprised when it happens.

I'm just like, well, I guess we're all just floating through the void, like the Buddhists say.

Or we're all just, you know.

We're all on a journey through the stars and you're just bound to run into some fucking random people.

Uh Mr.

Beast has interacted with Orvo before, by the way.

That's happened.

For some reason.

That's actually happened.

Mr.

Beast has interacted with Orville.

There's a lot of lore in this community, for sure.

Like Mr.

Beast knows who we are.

Let me tell you, I guarantee you what the the our ACP is v is there's gonna be Hollywood T V shows and movies inspired by ACP.

Like we're gonna be like the villains in some fucking T V show.

100%.

Or some video game.

This is something I'll tell you something I learned.

the world of politics is very small.

So like you the main celebrities might be celebrities when it comes to like movies or singing or some shit, right?

But like everyone is in the same algorithm.

So it's like

If people are interested in communist ideas, they know who the fuck I am.

If people are interested in communist discourse, they know who I am.

People are interested in Marxist discourse, they know who I am.

Like, this is a very small world, right?

Like, we may not be famous in the sense of like we're known to all these normies, but we are famous to famous people.

Like, they do know who we are because there's the space of politics is just too small for us to not be known, you know.

Like people who are into online politics know who we are by and large, right?

Let me check something.

We'll keep going.

Chuck Schumer knows we we have it confirmed.

That Chuck Schumer knows who we are.

Why does Chuck Schumer know who we are?

Should I spoil it?

Okay, Chuck Schumer.

uses the CPUSA

for backroom diplomacy with a certain country

And Chuck Schumer is very invested in bringing the ACP down.

Because if we become the preeminent Communist Party in America officially, then his diplomatic channel is gone.

which he uses through the CPUSA.

Yes, the ports.

When we were organizing at the ports, he was informed about it for some reason, and he was very worried about it.

And it's probably because he's connected to the big businesses over there.

who make money off of it and lobby the Democrats, but it's also because he has a vested interest in making sure the CPUSA is preeminent officially because he uses that as a diplomatic channel.

with a certain country.

Allegedly.

Could I ever get on Tucker Carlson?

I don't know.

I mean, maybe.

If I made it my goal, I could.

I d I don't know if that's the goal I should have.

I for example, let me can I c can I tell you the truth?

First book that I put out, I'm going on a fucking media rampage.

Soon as my book is done, I'm gonna go on Tucker, I'm gonna fucking I'll go everywhere, I'll go on book tours, I'm gonna be fucking viral as fuck.

I don't wanna be viral right now because I don't have the book.

Soon as I have a fucking book, I'm gonna go viral as fuck.

Don't worry.

There is something I'll tell you about Zerka, right?

He used to tell me, Bro, don't worry.

I'm going to go viral when I feel like it.

I'm like, bro, you're wasting your potential.

What are you doing?

This was before he became viral.

He's like, no, don't worry about it.

When the time comes, I'll do it.

I don't feel like it right now.

And then

You know, lo and behold.

When, like, a year later, when he actually felt like it, or when the time was right for him, he actually fucking took the internet by storm.

And now everybody found out who he was.

Like, he became viral as fuck, right?

So it's like.

Um I don't worry about that.

Uh because like I seen I know how it works.

Like you don't have to

You don't have to like worry about clout chasing or anything.

When your time comes, it'll come.

In the sense that, like, when it feels right for you, it doesn't feel right for me right now, you know?

Zerka said you told him in private that you thought he used black magic to go viral.

Um, I think it's a probably a combination of that and just strong intuitions.

He definitely, like, very much.

Like when he went viral, it didn't surprise me.

But you know what's fucking scary?

It didn't surprise him either.

Like, he knew what he was doing.

I don't know what to tell you.

Like, I saw him when he was going viral as fuck, and it's like.

It didn't surprise me.

But it also didn't surprise him.

Like it never got to his head.

He was never like, Oh my god, I'm going so viral He was very like smoothly just like, Yeah, I know what I'm I know I'm going viral.

This was always meant to be And it's like that's why that's why there's like a black magic vibe to it, you know.

I do have that clarity.

That's the thing.

I have that same clarity, which is why I know.

I don't

want to go super viral until I have a book.

When I have a book, I will go fucking viral as fuck.

And can I tell you guys why?

Because the book will be my independence.

When I go super fucking viral,

Without a book?

I'm going to get all sorts of deals and like sponsorship offers and things like that.

I don't want to depend on any of that.

I want to have a book that I'll have that's like this is the bedrock and foundation of my thinking, first of all, which is the most important thing.

Second of all, I'll always have the independence to be like, I'm not going to depend on a sponsorship or a deal or anything like that.

I will just sell the book, right?

Why are you saying that about true and on?

What are you talking about true and on?

What do you mean by that?

True Anon's gonna attack ACP.

Why?

Where are you gonna did they are they saying they are or something?

I mean, I don't know.

I mean, whatever they say, I hope they back it up with evidence and shit, because uh if they do some shit that is m you know, if we genuinely get harmed by it, which I I can't see how we would, but if we do, we will fucking take legal action if they're lying about us.

100% we will.

So it better be it better be uh

Better be factually accurate.

We'll just straight up take legal action if they fucking lie about us on some stupid bullshit.

But look, the more people find out about us, the better it is for us.

That's just the law.

Yeah.

Barnaby, but why are you saying they're doing that?

Like where are you getting that information?

Fucking hungry.

Is Dugan a glowy?

In how why would he be?

You know?

I've seen no evidence or I've had never had any reason to think.

Yeah, I'm the George R.

Amart.

I get that.

I understand.

Yo, Barnaby, are you like ignoring me, bro?

Like, what wha what's going on?

Are you just speculating that, or is there like a reason you're saying that?

Bro, like Barnaby just like is ignoring my question.

It's crazy.

Someone earlier was talking about Chapo not mentioning you, and it got me thinking about other podcasts.

Oh, yeah, true.

I think most of them are playing the thing: we don't want to give him clout.

That's really what it is.

Will the book have pictures?

Like, what a stupid ass question.

Because he talked with Jong, that's Sneeko's fault.

Can can we just like not reduce Dugan to being a like a streamer or a tweeter?

Can you like read him?

Uh

The biggest black pill about writing a book is that Dugan's written a bunch of books and people only judge him based on his tweets and not what he's written.

And it'll be the same thing for me, right?

You should talk to Sneeko.

Okay, can I fucking I I get the strong impression that Sneeko does not fuck with us.

Flying ants, bro, with the tent, thank you so much, man.

I get the strong impression he just does not fuck with us.

I don't know why, but like, I just really get the impression he just doesn't fuck with us.

And I don't I don't really care about why.

You wanna understand my intuitions?

I think Sneeko is cool with Jackson.

Yeah, he's cool with Jackson for sure, but like

I kinda feel like he doesn't fuck with us.

And I don't know why why it is.

But I don't care.

I mean, to use their own I'm I don't

I don't really care, like it's not an issue.

No, Sneeko has never fucked with us.

Like, bro, I remember when I was streaming with Jackson and Zirka, Zirka brought in Sneeko into the stream.

And then Sneeko was like, He I think he thought I was Jewish or something.

Tanky, what's up?

And he was like, Ever since then, he's been sketched out as fuck.

He was like sketched out his book.

Uh you I don't think about AOC.

I don't I don't believe that.

You guys are overthinking that shit.

Sneako bro, Jake Shields is l I literally just did a podcast with Jake Shields.

Why are you saying he doesn't fuck with us?

Jake Shields, I literally just met him.

He does fuck with us.

Jake Shields does fuck with us.

Like, he just didn't know us that well.

He knows us through Eddie already and Jackson.

And then I literally just had a two-hour podcast with him.

which was very good.

You're saying, why the fuck would Jake Shields not fuck with us?

That's like retarded to say.

He's Jewish?

I bro, I don't know.

When is it coming out?

I actually don't know.

I am going to be streaming with Jake Shields tomorrow on his kick channel.

So, you guys should make it.

I'll definitely ask you.

You should look forward to that.

Kraut bro, I don't care about European LARPers, bro, I just don't care.

Why do Europeans think they're the fucking gatekeepers and masterminds behind all like political philosophy and theory?

I I've never understood that.

It's like, okay, but at the end of the day,

You guys literally are in the EU, which is like you have no sovereignty.

What are you talking about?

Are you going to the V-Day event?

Folk, yes I am, bro, I am.

And I hope you are there as well.

You may also

All right.

That'd be sick.

Barnaby with the ten, bro Thank you, man.

Thank you, ma'am.

Thank you, ma'am.
